Donate to Tornado Victims By Downloading WINNING from iTunes. (Currently there is no way to donate to victims of the track itself.)

I donated to tornado victims by buying the Charlie Sheen/Snoop Dog single WINNING. The above photo shows how to properly file the track once you have downloaded it. Less painful way to donate: Text REDCROSS to 90999 to donate $10 Tweet

Der Tzitung Has Issued an Apology and it is Nonsense

Image
By now you probably heard about the ultra-Orthodox Hasidic newspaper, Der Tzitung , which "photoshopped" Hillary Clinton and Director of Counter-terrorism Audrey Tomason out of this now iconic situation room photo. Well, Der Tzitung has issued their explanation/apology and it does not fly with me. A portion of the apology goes as follows "Also present in the Situation Room were various high-ranking government and military officials including Secretary of State, the honorable Hillary Rodham Clinton and another female participant.Our photo editor realizing the significance of this historic moment, published the picture, but in his haste, did not read the "fine print" that accompanied the picture, forbidding any changes and published a picture omitting the female participants in the room" Here is the problem "omitting the female participants." I use Photoshop all day in my work and I have OMITTED many people from photogra...

AVATAR Available On DVD April Second. Unobtanium Still Worst Name Ever.

Image
I think deep down we all know there is no way this new element would have been named Unobtanium.  But it is easy to criticize when you don't also offer an alternative.  And I dare say its fairly obvious... Colbertium.   Duh.

What's On My Kindle? (or Pimpin' J.scottgrand.)

Image
I don't mind reading tech articles, and emails sitting at my computer, but reading that I could actually enjoy must be done in proper comfort. So 1.5 paragraphs into a bit of writing from j.scottgrand I knew what I had to do. Cut, paste, save as .doc and email to my Kindle. Now I can go curl up with (a fraction of) a very good book. Keep it coming j.scott and I will keep pirating it as best I can. The story is View from the St. Mark's Hotel-1990 His entire unapologetic blog is right HERE

An iPhone Function I Would LOVE To See (or Application Organization Application)

Image
Now that I am up to six pages of apps I honestly need a better way to organize them than doing it on the phone itself. Using the iPhone to organize it's apps is like sorting the contents of six boxes. But you can only uncover one box at a time. AND any item moved must pass through all boxes between it's current box and it's final box. Geeze! Even explaining it is frustrating. Why cant I just have a nice drag and drop method within iTunes... like I have mocked up in the above image (click for larger.) By the way No. 7 on this list helps the process, but not very much.
