Cape Yamu : Wine Bars
Wine consumption in Thailand is becoming more and more popular and wine bars are quickly becoming the newest fad. Customers are move away from socializing at coffee shops and into the wine bars.
The Thai government imposes high import taxes on wines and therefore an evening on wine imbibing can be expensive. There are some good deals to be found with drinkable wines on offer at many establishments in Phuket.
Several upmarket hotels offer occasional wine tasting events when introducing or promoting new wines on the market. Some restaurants host wine tasting dinners and events or offer free flow wines for a set price on certain evenings.

An Elkin winery on Main Street is reopening on March 8 at noon.
The winery also scheduled a free performance by Naomi's Fancy at 6 p.m. The public is invited to attend.
Beth Duncan, owner of the Brushy Mountain Winery temporarily closed six weeks ago to embark on an aggressive interior remodelling plan she hopes will make her spruced-up establishment an even greater location to visit.
"I couldn't have asked for anything more than what was achieved," said Duncan. "I know how important wineries are to the region and I'm so happy to open the doors to a magnificent place."
The plan involved removing much of the interior siding to expose the original brick of the winery. A new paint color scheme was splashed on existing walls. A more trendy seating plan was designed in hopes to create more conversation areas.
During the remodeling, a treasure was discovered, according to the winery owner.
"When we started talking the wall down to expose the original brick of the building, we noticed a feature quite unique to Main Street. Businesses along Main Street and surrounding areas had display ads built into the brick wall," said Duncan. "After we discovered it, a putty knife and a spray bottle was used to scrape off old wallpaper that covered the art. We were able to expose a significant part of Main Street history."
Duncan said that everyone is invited to take a look at the art, in addition to coming to see the new and cozy seating layout and furniture design.
"The seating makes the facility more open and refreshing," said Duncan. "This is the Starbucks of wineries."
Duncan purchased the winery late last year from Matthew Mayberry and his family. The winery is located at 125 West Main St. in downtown Elkin. The building was once owned by the Elkin Canning Company, which during its peak years had as many as 20,000 cans of blackberries per year shipped to the coal miners of West Virginia.
Today, cans no longer line the walls of the basement in the winery. It's since been replaced by wooden barrels. The fermentation process of the wine occurs on-premise in the basement.
All grapes for Brushy Mountain Winery are purchased from local vineyards to the Yadkin Valley, with the exception of one grape that arrives from Niagara, NY, according to its owner.
Duncan, who now runs the winery full-time, relocated from the Boston area where she was working in health care. Although she enjoyed the people she was working with up north, her hours were long and her days stressful and over time, not quite fulfilling, she says.

Maine Job Growth Expected to be Slow in 2013
Maine Economists aren't too hopeful about job growth in the coming year. According to some, the unemployment rate in our state is expected to remain unchanged in 2013. And it will remain that way until decisions are made at the national level. News Source 8's Katie Zarrilli reports.

"Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?"
As most people know, the answer is "Snow White." The princess who is primarily famous for her good looks, her ability to put up with seven dwarves, and her dangerous naivete about old ladies and fruit that almost ended her life in a glass coffin.
I am a fairy tale maven. Not the Disney-fied versions, but the hard-core stories sourced directly from the Brothers Grimm or Hans Christian Andersen. I enjoy the adult edge these authors brought to their works, the harsh morals, the deeper grounding in good and evil, truth and lies, beauty and ugliness.
However, Snow White has never been one of my favorites. Even in the Grimm version, she was far too passive. She was beautiful, so she was dangerous. She was hunted by the queen, so she pleaded for her life and ran away. She was hungry and alone, so she ended up playing housekeeper for seven dwarfs in return for protection. She was simple-minded and gullible for pretty things, so she was tricked, not once, but three times by the evil queen: first by a fancy corset, then by a comb, and finally by a shiny apple . At last, the fair maiden is dead, but once again, her beauty saves her, for she is found by a prince who is so entranced by the dead girl that he has his servants haul her away. The servants' clumsiness acts as an unintentional Heimlich maneuver. Out comes the poisonous apple piece (which must be really gross after being lodged in Snow's throat for all that time), and Snow White wakes up. Prince and princess get married, and the evil queen ends up having to dance her life away in red-hot iron shoes.
Clearly I'm not the biggest fan. However, I was intrigued when I discovered that there are currently three Snow White movies in the works. In addition, Snow White is a major character in the dystopian fairy tale drama Once Upon a Time.
Why the sudden interest in silly old Snow? Three movies seems to be an awful lot of fuss for a character primarily known for being pure and beautiful and (most likely) virginal. She is not in any way empowered or possessing of any special traits except her beauty. Well, she can clean, but since she wasn't a professional maid, this says more about the dwarfs' kindness/desperation than Snow's incredible homemaking skills.
What is the modern-day appeal?
The answer takes us back into the history of Snow White, on through the series of literary renditions and interpretations over the years, and into the modern-day empowered adaptations. This answer will also take us through several posts, so I invite you to sit back and follow along as we have a look into the mirror at the Fairest of Them All: Snow White!
Taste of the Fantastical
In the spirit of fairy tales, here's a plug for another fairy tale show that recently arrived on your friendly TV:
Combines old German fairy tale stories with your basic police procedural. I'm not a huge fan, because I think in trying to make the fairy tales appropriately gritty and harsh, the story leaches some of their magic and wonder. Even the Grimm fairy tales had some happy endings. Plus, the police side of the story isn't especially unique or inventive.
Still, it's worth a look!

Cleaning homes is a task that most people dread. Busy schedules leave most of us with little or no time to clean homes on a daily basis. Vacuuming is a must at least once a week. Technology has revolutionized the types of vacuum cleaning systems being made available today, and they are now able to vacuum all the floors in your home and their parts and accessories also make it possible to dust and tidy furniture and other sections of your home. Again, the type of vacuum cleaning system and accessories you choose will depend on the pets and allergy prone members of your family. You might require parts such as HEPA filters to ensure that up to 99.97% of the allergens are kept at bay.

- How can we explore the onset of deconfinement by experiment? (2007)
- There is little doubt that Quantumchromodynamics (QCD) is the theory which describes strong interaction physics. Lattice gauge simulations of QCD predict that in the m,T plane there is a line where a transition from confined hadronic matter to deconfined quarks takes place. The transition is either a cross over (at low m) or of first order (at high m). It is the goal of the present and future heavy ion experiment at RHIC and FAIR to study this phase transition at different locations in the m,T plane and to explore the properties of the deconfined phase. It is the purpose of this contribution to discuss some of the observables which are considered as useful for this purpose.

- Hybrid approaches to heavy ion collisions and future perspectives (2011)
- We present the current status of hybrid approaches to describe heavy ion collisions and their future challenges and perspectives. First we present a hybrid model combining a Boltzmann transport model of hadronic degrees of freedom in the initial and final state with an optional hydrodynamic evolution during the dense and hot phase. Second, we present a recent extension of the hydrodynamical model to include fluctuations near the phase transition by coupling a chiral field to the hydrodynamic evolution.
- Multi-particle interactions within the UrQMD approach (2011)
- A mechanism for locally density-dependent dynamic parton rearrangement and fusion has been implemented into the Ultrarelativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD) approach. The same mechanism has been previously built in the Quark Gluon String Model (QGSM). This rearrangement and fusion approach based on parton coalescence ideas enables the description of multi-particle interactions, namely 3 -> 3 and 3 -> 2, between (pre)hadronic states in addition to standard binary interactions. The UrQMD model (v2.3) extended by these additional processes allows to investigate implications of multi-particle interactions on the reaction dynamics of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. The mechanism, its implementation and first results of this investigation are presented and discussed.
- HBT radii from the UrQMD transport approach at different energies (2011)
- We present results on Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) radii extracted from the Ultra-relativistic Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD) approach to relativistic heavy ion collisions. The present investigation provides a comparison of results from pure hadronic transport calculations to a Boltzmann + Hydrodynamic hybrid approach with an intermediate hydrodynamic phase. For the hydrodynamic phase different Equations of State (EoS) have been employed, i.e. bag model, hadron resonance gas and a chiral EoS. The influence of various freeze-out scenarios has been investigated and shown to be negligible if hadronic rescatterings after the hydrodynamic evolution are included. Furthermore, first results of the source tilt from azimuthal sensitive HBT and the direct extraction from the transport model are presented and exhibit a very good agreement with E895 data at AGS.
- Parton recombination and fluctuations of conserved charges (2007)
- We study various fluctuation and correlation signals of the deconfined state using a dynamical recombination approach (quark Molecular Dynamics, qMD). We analyse charge ratio fluctuations, charge transfer fluctuations and baryon-strangeness correlations as a function of the center of mass energy with a set of central Pb+Pb/Au+Au events from AGS energies on (Elab = 4 AGeV) up to the highest RHIC energy available (V sNN = 200 GeV) and as a function of time with a set of central Au+Au qMD events at V sNN = 200 GeV with and without applying our hadronization procedure. For all studied quantities, the results start from values compatible with a weakly coupled QGP in the early stage and end with values compatible with the hadronic result in the final state. We show that the loss of the signal occurs at the same time as hadronization and trace it back to the dynamical recombination process implemented in our model.
- An introduction to mini black holes at LHC (2007)
- Relying on the existing estimates for the production cross sections of mini black holes in models with large extra dimensions, we review strategies for identifying those objects at collider experiments. We further consider a possible stable final state of such black holes and discuss their characteristic signatures. Keywords: Black holes
- Implications on the collision dynamics via azimuthal sensitive HBT from UrQMD : the Seventh Workshop on Particle Correlations and Femtoscopy, September 20 - 24 2011, University of Tokyo, Japan (2011)
- We explore the shape and orientation of the freezeout region of non-central heavy ion collisions. For this we fit the freezeout distribution with a tilted ellipsoid. The resulting tilt angle is compared to the same tilt angle extracted via an azimuthally sensitive HBT analysis. This allows to access the tilt angle experimentally, which is not possible directly from the freezeout distribution. We also show a systematic study on the system decoupling time dependence on dNch/dh, using HBT results from the UrQMD transport model. In this study we found that the decoupling time scales with (dNch/dh)1/3 within each energy, but the scaling is broken across energies.
- Direct photon emission in heavy ion collisions from microscopic transport theory and fluid dynamics : XLVIII International Winter Meeting on Nuclear Physics, BORMIO2010, January 25 - 29, 2010, Bormio, Italy (2010)
- Direct photon emission in heavy-ion collisions is calculated within a relativistic micro+macro hybrid model and compared to the microscopic transport model UrQMD. In the hybrid approach, the high-density part of the collision is calculated by an ideal 3+1-dimensional hydrodynamic calculation, while the early (pre-equilibrium-) and late (rescattering-) phase are calculated with the transport model. Different scenarios of the transition from the macroscopic description to the transport model description and their effects are studied. The calculations are compared to measurements by the WA98-collaboration and predictions for the future CBM-experiment are made.

The Phases of Jewish Bereavement
Jewish mourning customs reflect the natural course of grief and recovery following the death of a loved one.
By Dr. Ron Wolfson
We Also Recommend
Reprinted with permission from A Time to Mourn, A Time to Comfort (Jewish Lights Publishing, 1993).
Two thousand years before modern psychology discovered "grief work," the rabbis of the Talmud had established a staged series of steps to manage mourning. There are six basic phases of the Jewish bereavement cycle. Each has a specific time period and a set of major practices and common emotional states that assist the mourner through the grieving process.
Remember: Although these phases are time-bound, the emotions of a mourner's grief may or may not correspond to these times. The experience of bereavement is highly individualistic and while the time may move quickly, the resolution of grief often takes months or years.
The following provides an overview of the Jewish approach to mourning:
Phase One: Aninut
Time: From the moment of death until the conclusion of the funeral.
Major Practices: Making funeral arrangements, preparing for the funeral, no mourning, no prayer services, no "official" condolence calls.
Common Emotions: Shock, numbness, anger, denial, disbelief.
Phase Two: Aveilut (for Seven Relatives: Mother, Father, Spouse, Sister, Brother, Son, Daughter)
Time: Seven days of shiva [literally, sitting], beginning at the conclusion of the funeral (Day One) through the next six days, unless cancelled by a festival. The first three days are for intense mourning, followed by four days of mourning and reflection.
Major Practices: "Sit" at home, say Kaddish [prayer recited by mourners in praise of God] at prayer services conducted in the home (or synagogue), receive consolers, no work or shaving.
Common Emotions: Sadness, relief, melancholy, comfort, happiness when recalling fond memories of the deceased.
Phase Three: Sheloshim–30 Days (for Seven Relatives)
Time: From the end of shiva (Day Seven) through 30 days from the day of burial.
Major Practices: Return to work, say Kaddishat prayer services in the synagogue, no entertainment, men do not shave.
Common Emotions: Loneliness, busyness, waves of sadness.

The Todd Ruritan Club continued to make a positive impact in its community over the holiday season.
On Friday Dec. 7, Ms. Ruby Trivette lit the Todd Community Christmas Tree. Each light on the Christmas Tree represents a $5 donation to the Ruby A. Trivette Scholarship Fund.
This year, thanks to all the folks that donated, the Light Up A Life fundraiser generated about $1,200 to help with the scholarships for students that will be going to college this fall.
Also during the evening of events, members in the Todd community helped Ms. Ruby celebrate her 98th birthday with a cake and a bouquet of roses.
Since the beginning of the "Light up a Life" fundraiser in 1999, the Todd Ruritan has donated over $24,000 to students going on to college.
To donate to this project, send donations to Todd Ruritan, P.O. Box 234, Todd NC 28684 in care of the Ruby A. Trivette Scholarship Fund.
The Todd Ruritan served the area in other ways as well.
Every Christmas, the Todd Ruritan helps a family or families make Christmas a little better for parents and children alike.
This year, the Todd Ruritan helped the Hick Family, who live in the Meat Camp area, pick out around $500 of clothes and toys for their children.
Barry Stevens, the president of the Todd Ruritan Club, said the family was very thankful for the help.
Actions like these enabled the Todd Ruritan to receive a $250 award for community service at the Western N.C. Honors program on Nov. 17.
The Todd Ruritan meets at 7 p.m. on the third Tuesday of each month in the South Fork Baptist Church Fellowship Hall. Everyone is welcome to visit enjoy the food prepared by the group's members.

Executive Briefing – Getting Control of your Documents for Compliance and Risk Reduction - Dallas
A luncheon event for for executives of Pipeline Operators, Gas Utilities, Oil & Gas and Oil Field Services companies.
Many companies are struggling to comply with new regulations and manage their risks as they grow quickly. These struggles are often related to a similar challenge: How do you get control of all the documents currently scattered across numerous offices and stored away in multiple warehouses, accurately tag them and put them into one, central system that enables your people to find and manage the information they need to meet the regulator's requirements? This often means that,
- Compliance officers cannot assure that the company is meeting regulatory requirements
- Management is worried about loss of life or potential fines if something goes wrong
- Executives are afraid that they may be personally on the hook for a violation that they cannot control
- General counsels fear that unknown documents create litigation risk
- Engineers struggle to find the documents needed to keep up with growth and compliance
Although this problem is daunting, it can be solved – and quickly. Join us for our upcoming Executive Briefing to gain a better understanding of how these problems can be fixed in your business. During the event, we'll highlight an end to end solution that addresses the problems created by a recent, rigorous pipeline regulation (HR 2845 – the "Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty, and Job Creation Act of 2011"). During this briefing, we will discuss:
- The types of challenges you may be facing when it comes to documents physically residing in multiple locations
- How you can have millions of sensitive documents scanned in a matter of months
- How these documents can be processed for full text search and intelligent metadata capture
- How you can easily verify and add metadata to these documents for permanent archiving and future retrieval purposes
- How this solution can be customized to fit your unique needs and regulatory requirements
Attendance is being limited to maximize the value you will receive and to allow for meaningful conversations. Lunch will be provided.

I love the length and the high back for bending over when working. I think it's great that you don't sacrifice color for style.
- Cleans up well
- Comfortable
- Lots of pockets
- Sturdy
Best Uses
- Great for Hiking
- Wear In Garden
- Wearing Comfy Clothes
I live in shorts during the summer and this pair is a wonderful addition to my wardrobe. It's true that they are great in the garden, but I wear them all over town. The are sturdy enough that I can play with the kids and the dogs and not worry when I sometimes end up at the bottom of the pile. They are supper comfortable and have lots of pockets. Wonderful product
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- They Have Good Pockets
- I Like My Shorts Short
Best Uses
- Covering My Bottom Half
They fit better on me because of the gusset in the crotch. That's why I got them. Still, not as good as I'd hoped, but better than some. I bought the second pair even though my clothes are usually conservatively colored. I rolled up the hems so they didn't look so strange. I'm kind of short.
As advised, I got a size smaller than I would have and it was a good thing. Read other comments. They can be very helpful.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Small Waisthip Ratio
- Small Waist-hip Ratio
Best Uses
Ordered a size 12, my normal size for shorts. The waist was almost loose with the elastic not even pulling it in to fit at all and the hips were quite tight and pulled across the crotch. I believe if I ordered a size 14 for a better fit around the hips that the waistband would be completely loose and useless for holding these pants up. So I returned them for a refund. Pant design seems to be for less curvy builds with slim hips and not much difference between your waist, hip, and thigh measurements.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Cell phone pocket

My favorite shorts when outside working in the yard or garden. They are very comfortable, great quality, and I love the pocket for my cell phone. Handy and nice enough to run to the store dressed in these shorts. Like the green color.

What is Childhood Traumatic Grief
Childhood traumatic grief may occur following a death of someone important to the child when the child perceives the experience as traumatic. The death may have been sudden and unexpected (e.g., through violence or an accident), or anticipated (e.g., resulting from illness or other natural causes).
The distinguishing feature of childhood traumatic grief is that the trauma symptoms interfere with the child's ability to go through the typical process of bereavement. The child experiences a combination of trauma and grief symptoms so severe that any thoughts or reminders—even happy ones—about the person who died can lead to frightening thoughts, images, and/or memories of how the person died.

An innovative tool for helping people identify, clarify, and express feelings. "Players will be able to relate more honestly to others as they learn to express feelings. As a result, players become more effective problem-solvers, and the identification and expression of feelings brings clarity to players' needs, which in turn leads to enhanced self-esteem. The game is a wonderful tool to equalize those who use words as a defense but have difficulty being emotionally honest, and for those who have great difficulty being articulate on any level."

"Everybody knows how to play Bingo, but this version requires players to identify feelings rather than numbers on their Bingo cards. Ideal for counseling groups or classrooms . . . not only helps children learn to recognize various feelings, it also teaches empathy—a trait associated with lower incidence of violent behavior. Game rules provide opportunities for children to discuss their own feelings and to respond empathetically to the feelings of others. The teen version features feelings that are common in adolescence." Available from: Creative Therapy Store and Western Psychological Services.

Why Does Lindsay Lohan Have Massive Bruising On Her Legs?
Lindsay Lohan's legs are looking a little bit freaky these days.
The Freaky Friday star is headed to rehab soon, but her legs were cause for concern this week, according to TMZ.
Lindsay was photographed during a shopping trip in Venice, CA, on April 17 with a massive bruise on the back of her leg.
It is unclear as to what may have caused the injury.
Click here to see a photo of Lindsay's bruised leg.
TMZ says that the star was seen with bruises at Coachella this past weekend at during her stint in Brazil earlier this month, but that those bruises weren't as bad as this one is.
Linds has apparently told her friends that she bruises easily because she doesn't drink enough water, which we're not sure if we believe or not.
Regarding Coachella, Lindsay told friends that she went to bed early during her weekend at the music festival and that she strictly had clean fun. Good for her!
We're wishing the best for Lindsay, and we're hoping that her upcoming trip to rehab will help her turn things around.
She enters her court-mandated 90-day rehab stint on May 2, although she has yet to decide which rehab facility she'll be staying at.
Here's hoping her leg will be back to normal in no time.

iOS 6 Do Not Disturb goes on bender, takes New Years off
Proving once again that even the latest, greatest iOS time-based feature can fail in the face of simple change, tons of reports are flying around the internet that Do Not Disturb -- the feature that lets you mute Notification Center alerts during specified, usually nighttime, periods -- stopped working at some point between 2012 and 2013.
Manually flipping Do Not Disturb from off to on again seems to fix the problem for some people, rebooting for others, though that might be small comfort when the Game Center trumpet goes off at 4am after you've been out old lang syne-ing until the wee hours, or when it won't turn back on and you miss that important call.
Apple has struggled with alarms and other time-based functions during transitional periods before, and it seems they still haven't figured out a way to fix whatever's causing the problems.
I have almost all my alerts turned off all the time anyway, so I didn't notice the problem, but if you did, let me know what happened, and if you found a fix that worked for you.
Happy New Ye---BAPADABAAAAAAAAH!
Update: Apple has released a knowledge base article saying the bug will fix itself on January 7.

iOS 6 Do Not Disturb goes on bender, takes New Years off
You do realize if you turn the switch inside of settings to "on" that is turning it on RIGHT NOW and not turning on your schedule right? you set your schedule inside of notifications and it will show "Scheduled: 1:00 AM" or whatever time you set and the switch will be off if it isn't during your scheduled on time.
Other than those years, it's something weird (like it fixes itself the first Sunday after the first Monday).
This is a major screwup by Apple. A time critical text was delayed by several hours (until I noticed the moon in the status bar) Jan 2 because of this. The DND function deactivated fine on the morning of Jan 1 so I was definitely not expecting this.
Honestly, after all their other date related screw ups, you would think they would drop a few bucks to test properly. If they are incapable of designing proper unit tests, they should just pay a squad of minimum wage workers to walk through the dates and check functionality.
This is especially embarrassing for Apple coming on the heels of the ping pong commercial. I imagine lots of people just activated this feature in time for it to blow up in their faces.
For me the icon turns off if I set it to start at 11:59pm instead of 12am...
Not sure why this worked, but it did for me...thanks.
And today, even that doesn't seem to be working...
Oh well, turning off the schedule until the next iOS update...
Not just a mere ton of reports are flying around but you say multiple tons of reports are flying around! Do you iSheep realize this colossal failure by Apple might have cost people their job or a missed appointment with a doctor, and Apple should be sued to the hilt! The once gleaming Apple has fallen from the tree and is now rotting on the ground; this would have never happened under Steve Jobs. As a result, I'm buying a Galaxy Note II tomorrow with it's massively sized display and guilt free open source version of Linux known as Android Jelly Bean. Goodbye iSheeple!
Um the DND is not an alarm. It only silences phone calls, txt messages ,and other notifications as selected. So has nothing to do with getting an alarm. That still worked fine. Sue apple because you may have over slept? Really?!? I suppose you are one of those who buy HOT coffee and spill it on yourself then sue Folgers. Wonder how folks ever got to their jobs and doctors before iOS6 release with the DND feature? (even though that has nothing to do with an alarm) Never thought about that too much.
Hmm, funny. Mine worked perfectly fine like it always does. I'm in the US, scheduled to shut off at 6 am. Shut off at 6 am. Yay for me I guess.
I had no issues whatsoever up in Canada.
as Clifford said I'm blown away that a mom able to profit Ұ5123 in 1 month on the computer. did you see this link fly38.ℂoℳ
I think Apple needs a few more folks in the Time and Alarms division.
But seriously, I think this is indicative of a larger problem I keep seeing with Apple... which, I think if not addressed, will ultimately be their demise.
Attention to detail!
This is what made Apple and what Jobs was famous for. Many of us Apple users have spent extra money on our computers for a LONG time because of this. It's because we know (or assumed) that Apple spent the hard time thinking through each UI change, often doing usability studies. We love it in the big picture when Apple thinks through an entire industry in order to redefine it. We love it in the manufacturing and industrial design of their products.
It still exists at Apple. We see it when we look at an iPhone 5 or the iPad series (hardware). We see it in many other ways. However, on the software side of things, I think it is really slipping lately. The software folks seem more focused on a 'new look' for iTunes than they do for pinning things down like the file system interaction on iOS, or 'save-as' on OSX, or proper syncing and basic features of Contacts and Calendar (we just recently got the ability to search more than a few fields in Contacts!). The same can be said in this case. Alarms might not be glamorous, but they are critical to those who use and depend on them.
While Apple is certainly doing well in many consumer markets, what will happen if people learn they can't ultimately depend on these devices for core capabilities? Siri doesn't matter much if the device doesn't wake me up for that important meeting. OSX doesn't save me much productivity time if I or some user opens a document and accidentally makes some changes which get auto-saved and I now have to chase down a backup (assuming I'm good and have one).
A friend of mine, who has been a Mac consultant for a LONG time (and got me into Macs more than two decades ago) recently said that he wouldn't even recommend Macs in a business environment right now (nor upgrading to Lion or Mt Lion for existing folks), given the mess that Apple has created around saving files.
Apple once understood that the small things matter. I fear if they don't get that back in their sights, it is ultimately going to be their undoing.
This was posted by another user on MacRumors forums:
"I made some tests and this issue will fix itself on Sunday January 6, 2013. It will happen the first few days of January 2014 (until Sunday January 5, 2014) if the bug is not fixed. Most first few days of most years seem to have this bug. The bugs starts on January 1st (based on the From time under Scheduled) and is usually fixed on the first Sunday of the year (except if the first day of the year is a Sunday, then it is fixed on the second Sunday). Years preceding years where the first day is a Sunday are not affected by the bug.
Let's check the next few years, this is the pattern :
2013 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 6
2014 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 5
2015 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 4
2016 : Issue not happening even though first day is a Friday
2017 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 8 (Jan 1st is also a Sunday)
2018 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 7
2019 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 6
2020 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 5
2021 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 3
2022 : Issue not happening even though first day is a Saturday
2023 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 8 (Jan 1st is also a Sunday)
2024 : Issue fixed on Sunday Jan 7
The same pattern happens if you go back in time as well.
Note : If DND is scheduled before midnight, then the issue and the fix (see above) are delayed one day since it's based on the From time under Scheduled."
I discovered that the moon appeared and DND engaged immediately upon setting a future time on my iPhone 5 via Settings --> Notifications --> DND. This interrupted all phone rings and alarms causing at least one missed appointment.
Here is my 4-step remedy:
Settings --> Notifications --> DND --> Scheduled ... turn OFF
Settings --> DND ... turn ON
Settings --> Notifications --> DND --> Scheduled ... turn ON
Settings --> DND ... turn OFF
Like magic, the moon will disappear and your scheduled time will appear beneath the words "Do Not Disturb" at Settings --> DND
Upon rereading the instructions above, it is perfectly understandable to me but probably as clear as mud to you.
Good luck and may all you wishes come true...
Hey bo0g, thank you for the tips. I followed these, and it worked all worked for me. Cheers mate, and happy new year.
