However, do you think we can change edesignuk's official title from mini-mod to mod mini, more inline with Apple's product naming scheme? :p
Take another look now ;)

Hi, I am using pic-in-pic full screen dissolves in an iMovie project. The problem is that when I attempt to detach and scrap audio in the 'superimposed' clip (ie. the 'top' one), it appears to do so, but then the audio comes through when I play the project back. There must be a very simple reason for this. Surely...

The whole notion that Europeans drive smaller cars because their streets are narrow is partially myth. Don't forget - Europe has modern cities with divided highways too, just like the US does. It is true that many cities and towns in Europe are more compact because of their age (Americans who live in certain parts of Boston or Philadelphia will be familiar with what 17th century streets look like). But the smaller size of cars in Europe is more closely related to the austerity of the post-WWII years setting a satandard of smaller cars, fuel prices being higher, and higher taxes for larger cars.
Truthfully, this is probably the biggest reason. We Americans have been spoiled by decades of cheap gas and cheap cars.

Full of Win

Let me clairfy, I should of realized the Full OF Win would go to extremes. Anything that in public context is not offense or profane, which .Me is does not fall into. You get hung up a too much minor s__t. Fill in the blank.
No, but I think the word 'me' does have negative connotations such as narcissism and self centeredness. That is my beef with it. The last word I want someone to associate with my name is 'me'.

How we appear should never be a criterion for how we are treated under law. Justice is supposed to be blind.
Is anyone here arguing that the way someone dresses does or should have a legal consequence in a rape situation? I haven't read every post, so perhaps someone is. Is treatment under the law the only aspect of this being discussed in this thread?

I'm not sure how Apple can be disappointed with iPhone's CDMA numbers. First of all, it took far too long for the iPhone to go CDMA. Apple was foolish to sign a 5 year exclusivity agreement with AT&T in a market where technology can be turned upside down in 12 months. Did Apple really think there would be no competition within that 5 year time frame?
Apple handed market share to Android, and continues to do so with its 1+ year product update cycles. Look, Apple, this is what frustrated us when you were using Motorola chips in the Mac - you blamed Motorola for your update cycles because they were not improving the G4/G5 series processors. Then you switched to Intel, which improved the update cycle a bit for iMacs and MacBooks.
Apple's competitors update their products twice a year. The Xoom is going to have a successor in a few months. Look at how quickly Android smartphones are being updated with the latest and greatest technology. Apple just can't sit still while their competition is grinding out one great product after another. Eventually people will see past cosmetic UI differences and go with the phone their friend has, or what their family uses, etc., and that is quickly going to be Android.
Apple stock is down almost 3% today, not sure if it's because of the news or profit taking among shareholders, but it's definitely something to watch. All the analysts are predicting their stock to go to $400-$500, but with Android gaining so much traction I fail to see how this is possible.
I wanted very much to buy an iPad 2. But after seeing the dismal display and camera quality in person, and the fact that it didn't offer anything new or exciting over the iPad 1, I decided to wait for the Android tablets to hit in force and compare them to iPad 3. All I can say to Apple is that the iPhone 5 and iPad 3 better blow us all away, and they better be more than just incremental updates. If all we get this year is an iPhone 4S, Apple is going to lose this battle.
For Apple, the future rests with iOS 5. It better be good.

in the middle of way open area at Union Square Park in NYC had 2 dropped calls. Customer services response? Install app on iphone that lets us know where your call was dropped. Sure let me do your work, and pay for that privalage.
And how do you expect them to find out what is going on? Magic? All they wanted you to do was install an app that would let them run a diagnosis. Are they supposed to send some one over to you to take your phone and install it for you?
You do realize that that would increase the time it would take them to find the problem by, a helluva lot vs. the few seconds it would take you to install that app. And it would be wasting a lot of gas and pay time to send that person out for something you could do in a few seconds.
How lazy can you be to complain that they dare want you to do a few seconds of work so they can help you?
I've never come across a company that will baby the customer that much. Apple still insists I drive my computer over to their store for them to look at. When I was calling in about a broken monitor, I had to *gasp*, look for the serial number on my computer for Gateway. I guess you'd expect them to send some one over to do that for me?

And this is why we wanted competition Mr Jobs. They battle and we all win.
Jobs didn't want that. He wanted the several million dollars in kickbacks that AT&T gave Apple from AT&T's customers' monthly cell phone bills.

To level the playing field, you definitely need to raise taxes predominantly on the rich. If the chart 5P showed about the declared percentages earned and paid in taxes is correct, then I would assume without any doubt that the super rich were paying a great deal less, percentage-wise, than any other taxpayer, since they can afford to use expensive tax accountants - the same tax accountants who advise the Revenue, of course - to help them avoid large chunks of tax due. If their true "earnings" were equitably taxed, they would be paying a far larger percentage of total income tax than they do.

What really busts our budget are the mind-boggling amounts we spend on our entitlement programs--Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid (especially Medicare and Medicaid). These programs are wildly more expensive than any other budget items, and they're also growing like weeds.
If we don't get Medicare and Medicaid expenses under control, the USA will go broke, pure and simple. And yet, almost no one in Washington has the stones to even talk about this, let alone do something about it. They just kick the can down the road.
One of the problems with many of the 'solutions' means that as an after-affect, Americans will starve, and some may even die due to not getting necessary medical care. So yes, we, as a country, can cut back on these programs, but does that mean we should cut back these programs with their potential side-effects? How do people on this forum feel about budget reductions that will make people have to decide whether they get the medication that they need or eat more than once a day?
I don't think anyone can appreciate Medicare and (especially) Medicaid until you can see first hand just what these programs do for so many people.
Financial issues? Yes. Any good current solution?
Here is a place to start...we need to think long and hard about how we save money, as well as its potential benefits and consequences. We also need to think about how we can make our money go further than it currently is. Let's not cut back programs in the immediate; let's work from the bottom up. So my idea is to examine how we can keep the current level of quality (or increase it), while simultaneously reducing operating and administrative costs.
This is possible, at least in my field. One place to start would be reverting to the concept and practice of Evidence Based Medicine, which is using medical services and medication that has proven effectiveness. This means not using/paying for treatments of questionable outcomes or experimental and unproven medications. Often this actually results in a better outcome for both your pockets and your health, as newer medical technology is generally more expensive, and if you go right to using a treatment that we know does work, treatment comes quicker because time is not wasted on things which do not work. This concept seems to have originated from numerous European countries, and IMO was perfected by the Nordic Countries years ago.
Here is an example; let's take the top selling drugs in the US:
1) Lipitor ($14.5 Billion)
2) ADVAIR ($6 Billion)
3) Plavix ($6 Billion)
4) Nexium ($5 Billion)
1) Evidence of Lipitor actually affecting ultimate outcomes is questionable. Yes, it lowers stats on paper, but if it reduces the chances of dying is still disputed. Also, it has a side effect profile which can make one's life a living nightmare.
2) ADVAIR is probably worth the money given its ability and lower side effect profile than other steroids used for asthma
3) Plavix outcomes can also be disputed
4) Nexium is essentially Prilosec. Ultimate outcomes of 40mg Nexium versus an equal dose Prilosec are almost identical, and differences are not statistically significant. Nexium is marketed as being better because Prilosec through sneaky studies that were published by the pharmaceutical company that makes it by using a lower dose of Prilosec and testing Nexium against medical issues that Prilosec was never marketed for. It is a Me Too Drug to the tenth power. A year's worth of generic Prilosec costs less than one week of Nexium.
See how I am working this? Things like this can be considered and the effectiveness versus the costs needs to be given more detail. Just my 2 cents.

This is what many of us have been suggesting for a while now. Smartphone market share is not the be-all/end-all. iOS usage as a whole is a far more important indicator of what's going on because you don't have traditional carrier lock-ins with the non-phone devices.

That's Adium with a custom theme, and MacLampsX (http://arcticmac.home.comcast.net/~arcticmac/software/maclampsx.html) doing the bulbs on the screen edges. I usually show my Dock, but didn't want to block any more of the bulbs than necessary.
