Will: Taking offense is America's national pastime
WASHINGTON – After the marshal on Monday spoke the traditional "God save the United States and this honorable court," the Supreme Court ruled that the upstate New York town of Greece does not violate the First Amendment's prohibition of "establishment of religion" by opening its board of supervisors' meetings with a prayer. This ruling would not scandalize James Madison and other members of the First Congress, which drafted and sent to the states for ratification the First Amendment and the rest of the Bill of Rights. The Congress did this after hiring a chaplain.
Three decades have passed since the court last ruled on the matter of prayers during government meetings. In 1983, the court held:
"The opening of sessions of legislative and other deliberative public bodies with prayer is deeply embedded in the history and tradition of this country. From colonial times through the founding of the Republic and ever since, the practice of legislative prayer has coexisted with the principles of disestablishment and religious freedom."
Since then, however, many Americans have become more irritable and litigious, and less neighborly. Also, there are many more nonbelievers. And the court has made Establishment Clause jurisprudence more labyrinthine with nuances such as the "endorsement test": What government behavior touching religion would a reasonable observer see as endorsing — or disapproving — a particular religion or religiosity generally?
Until 1999, Greece's board usually opened its meetings with a moment of silence. Since then, it has invited local clergy, most of whom are Christians, to deliver prayers, most of which have had Christian content. The court has never held that legislative prayer must be nonsectarian. But the two plaintiffs against Greece argued that the predominance of Christian voices (there were others — Jewish, Baha'i and a Wiccan priestess who prayed to Athena and Apollo, rather fitting for a town named Greece) constituted establishment of Christianity as the town's religion. A lower court agreed.
On Monday, the Supreme Court split 5-4 in reversing that court. The majority held that ceremonial prayer — an encouragement to gravity and sobriety — is not harmful to the plaintiffs, who felt somehow coerced when present at public prayers, and who said such prayers are necessarily divisive. The court should have told them: If you feel coerced, you are flimsy people, and it is a choice — an unattractive one — to feel divided from your neighbors by their affection for brief and mild occasional expressions of religiosity.
The court prudently avoided the potentially endless task of adumbrating criteria by which local governments, acting as piety police, could finely calibrate a constitutionally acceptable quantity of devoutness in public prayers, or could draw a bright line between acknowledging and worshiping a divinity. So, the court can expect to hear again from militantly aggravated secularists.
Taking offense has become America's national pastime; being theatrically offended supposedly signifies the exquisitely refined moral delicacy of people who feel entitled to pass through life without encountering ideas or practices that annoy them. As the number of nonbelievers grows — about 20 percent of Americans are religiously unaffiliated, as are one-third of adults under 30 — so does the itch to litigate believers into submission to secular sensibilities.
America would be a more congenial place if it had more amiable atheists who say, as one such did, that "it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are 20 gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." Some will say Jefferson was a deist, not an atheist. Atheism, however, simply involves having no theism, and deism — belief that a celestial Clockmaker wound up the universe and set it ticking — is too watery a theism to count. Any religion worthy of the name explains, enjoins and consoles; undemanding deism merely explains, and does this minimally. Deism purports to explain the universe; so does the Big Bang theory, which is not a religion.
Still, Jefferson made statesmanlike accommodations of the public's strong preference for religious observances. As president, he attended Christian services conducted in the House of Representatives. They also were conducted in the Supreme Court chamber and the Treasury building. Jefferson attended a service in the House two days after praising (in an 1802 letter) "a wall of separation between church and state."
Jefferson was no slouch when it came to asserting rights. But Greece's prickly plaintiffs, having taken their town to court, might now ponder his example of relaxed, friendly respect for practices cherished by others and harmless to him.

More than 1,700 eligible patrons of M & M Cooperative will share in the distribution of $1.6 million in cash patronage and equity during 2013 based on business they've conducted with the company — but those who are eligible must contact the company to get their shares.
"We're extremely proud that we can provide this tremendous return to our customers and owners," said Mel Domine, managing director. "One of the most important ways we help producers grow is by delivering an economic return on the business they do with M & M Cooperative. This — along with the quality energy and crop inputs, crop marketing and services we provide year-round — underscores the added value of being a cooperative system owner and customer.
"Through their ownership in a cooperative like M & M Cooperative, not only do they have access to products and services, they also share in our success and that of the integrated CHS system. This enables all of us to invest in the future of our local producers, this business and our community."
M & M Cooperative is a locally controlled retail division of CHS Inc., the nation's leading producer-owned cooperative.
During 2013, M & M Cooperative will allocate a total of $4 million in patronage dividends to its eligible customers based on business done Sept. 1, 2011 -Aug. 31, 2012, of which $1.6 million is being paid out in cash.
Overall, CHS expects to return up to a record $600 million during its 2013 fiscal year in cash patronage, equity redemptions and dividends paid on preferred stock to nearly 1,200 eligible cooperatives and nearly 50,000 individual members and others in 50 states. CHS net income for its fiscal year ending Aug. 31 was $1.26 billion.
Patronage is based on business done with CHS during fiscal 2012, while equity redemptions represent retirement of ownership in CHS earned in past years. Since it was established in 1998, CHS has returned more than $3.1 billion in cash to its owners.
If they have not already done so, individuals who have reached age 70 and representatives of the estates of deceased members are encouraged to contact any local M & M Cooperative office and request redemption forms for their equity. CHS makes equity redemptions to eligible individual direct members throughout the year, based on attaining age 70 or estate retirements, but potentially eligible individuals must initiate contact.

Together with La traviata and Il trovatore, Rigoletto (1851) is an opera that made Verdi famous worldwide. Its theme, taken over from Victor Hugo's drama Le roi s'amuse, is the tragic story of the court jester Rigoletto and his beautiful daughter Gilda, who falls victim to her father's promiscuous master, the Duke of Mantua. The genesis of the work, written for the Teatro La Fenice, was quite dramatic in itself. The Venice police intervened and subjected the original version to censorship, claiming that the theme was "tastelessly immoral" and "offensive to His Royal Majesty".
The librettist Francesco Maria Piave carried out acceptable revisions, replaced the character of the King with the Duke, omitted the hunchback personage and the motif of curse, and changed the working title La maledizione to Il duco di Vendôme. Yet Verdi insisted that the main story line be preserved and that Triboletto (as the hunchback was originally called) remain an outcast living on the edge of society. Ultimately, a compromise was reached and the opera was given a new title, the one we know it by today – Rigoletto. The world premiere on 11 March 1851 in Venice was a triumph and the Duke's cynical song "La donna e mobile" (The woman is fickle) was sung by people in the streets the very next day. Verdi's splendid melodies and the masterful depiction of the lead characters still enchant opera-lovers around the world.
The opera is staged in Italian original version and Czech and English surtitles are used in the performance.

Over the Counter: Maintain a healthy digestive tract during pregnancy
By Dr. Gary Kracoff and Steve Bernardi
More Content Now
The time spent preparing for pregnancy should be filled with joy, love and healthy decision-making. It's important to embrace healthy lifestyle changes before becoming pregnant, beginning with a nutritious diet, prenatal vitamins and exercise. But there is another critical component that women often overlook - their gastrointestinal tract.
Populated with pounds of healthy bacteria, a woman's GI tract is directly linked to the health of her baby. The natural flora found in the gut works to help digest food, synthesize vitamins, support normal bowel contractions and provide immunity to protect the body against illness and disease.
Supporting a healthy digestive tract is crucial because it helps the mother effectively digest and absorb essential nutrients for herself and the infant. During a vaginal birth, the mother's healthy bacteria is present in vaginal mucus, which is absorbed by the baby's mouth during delivery. Babies are born with a sterile GI tract and acquire their beneficial bacteria from their environment, diet and the mother's vaginal tract if born vaginally. Whether you're planning to deliver vaginally or via caesarean section, it's important to take a good quality probiotic with lactobacillus and bifidobacteria. The probiotic should contain 12 to 14 different strains of beneficial bacteria and should be purchased refrigerated and kept that way.
Probiotics are also found naturally in fermented foods, such as sauerkraut and kimchi, a Korean dish of fermented vegetables, which may include cabbage, radishes or cucumbers. Kefir, a fermented milk product that produces live cultures of probiotics is another great natural source of healthy bacteria.
Breast milk is also instrumental in fostering the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut.After delivery, a mother produces colostrum, which is the first stage of breast milk. Colostrum usually looks yellow and creamy and is rich in vitamins, minerals, protein and the mother's immunoglobulins, which are antibodies that provide immunity for the baby.
If a mother decides to use formula, there are formulas available with prebiotics and probiotics to support a healthy digestive tract. Prebiotics help create a friendly environment in which probiotics can flourish.
Before, during and after pregnancy, it's also important to take a fish oil supplement, which contains the necessary EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) to support the development of a healthy nervous system for the infant. While in utero, the baby requires a lot of EPA and DHA, and will take what it needs from the mother, which is why it's important for expectant moms to replenish both EPA and DHA.
Folic acid should also be taken before, during and after pregnancy to prevent defects of the brain and spinal cord, called neural tube defects. It's recommended that a woman take folic acid before and during pregnancy, according to the March of Dimes Foundation. The proper amount of folic acid can be found in a prenatal vitamin, and it's best to take an organic food-based brand. Women who take the birth control pill should have their folic acid level checked before becoming pregnant, since birth control pills often deplete folic acid in the body. Natural food sources of folic acid include beans, green leafy vegetables, asparagus, broccoli, citrus fruit and peanuts.
A nutritious diet directly impacts a healthy pregnancy and it's important to avoid white sugar, white flour, artificial sweeteners and other processed food.
For proper nutrition, choose from a rainbow of fruits and vegetables rich in dark hues of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Select organic whole grains and lean protein, such as chicken, beef and edamame. Also, sip water throughout the day to stay hydrated.
Some women may be concerned about gaining weight, but remember that being underweight is just as dangerous as being overweight. If you're concerned about your weight during pregnancy, talk to your health care provider to develop a healthy eating plan.
While pregnancy often results in heartburn, nausea and constipation, there are many natural remedies to alleviate these symptoms that are safe for both mother and baby.
Ipecacuanha (homeopathic ipecac) is a remedy that can help reduce nausea. This is not to be confused with syrup of ipecac, which causes violent vomiting and is not to be taken during pregnancy. If the nausea is specifically triggered by the sight and smell of food, another homeopathic remedy, nux vomica can help reduce symptoms.
Ginger is also helpful in reducing nausea. Take a fresh piece of ginger root and slice it thinly, then pour hot water on it to make fresh ginger tea.
When it comes to constipation, grandma may have the answer with an old-fashioned remedy. Drinking prune juice will often clear up cases of constipation depending on the symptoms, as well as water and fiber.
Make sure to increase water and fiber together, otherwise additional fiber will enhance bloating if sufficient water isn't present. Start adding more fiber slowly to the diet to see how the body responds.
If you're straining to have a bowel movement, the homeopathic remedy alumina can help elimination, and for constipation with no urge to eliminate, the homeopathic remedy hydrastis canadensiscan helps trigger a bowel movement.
It is also important to make sure there is enough magnesium in your prenatal vitamin, since the iron found in prenatal and multivitamins can be binding and lead to constipation.
For heartburn there are many homeopathic remedies that can help depending on the symptoms.
When experiencing heartburn that becomes worse when drinking water, there is the homeopathic remedy cantharis.

For the third time since his historic first win last week, Teddy Roosevelt scored a victory in the Washington Nationals postseason presidents race.
Unfortunately, after the St. Louis Cardinals completed the biggest comeback in MLB playoff elimination game history, the race would prove to be Teddy's last of the season.
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln did their best to prevent Teddy's win, ambushing him on the outfield warning track, with George Washington knocking him to the ground and Abe taunting him as they ran past him.
The race carried on with Teddy doubled over on the warning track, but as the other presidents entered the home stretch along the first base line, members of the Nationals grounds crew left their positions and attacked, mercilessly.
As the grounds crew pummeled his opponents, an inspired Teddy Roosevelt caught up and passed them to win what would be the final presidents race of the season.
UPDATE: Here's the finish line video. Note the joy with which the grounds crew pounds the racing presidents. One gets the sense that they are unleashing seven years of pent up October Natitude:
With the Nationals out of contention for 2012, Teddy's fans are wondering what the team has in store for him. Rumors have run rampant about Teddy's retirement (which the mascot denies), and about the possibility of adding new presidents to the mix.

The Situation of Money-Based Happiness
Posted by The Situationist Staff on August 12, 2012
An excerpt from a recent, terrific New York Times piece by Elizabeth Dunn and Michael Norton:
The notion that money can't buy happiness has been around a long time — even before yoga came into vogue. But it turns out there is a measurable connection between income and happiness; not surprisingly, people with a comfortable living standard are happier than people living in poverty.
The catch is that additional income doesn't buy us any additional happiness on a typical day once we reach that comfortable standard. The magic number that defines this "comfortable standard" varies across individuals and countries, but in the United States, it seems to fall somewhere around $75,000. Using Gallup data collected from almost half a million Americans, researchers at Princeton found that higher household incomes were associated with better moods on a daily basis — but the beneficial effects of money tapered off entirely after the $75,000 mark.
Why, then, do so many of us bother to work so hard long after we have reached an income level sufficient to make most of us happy? One reason is that our ideas about the relationship between money and happiness are misguided. In research we conducted with a national sample of Americans, people thought that their life satisfaction would double if they made $55,000 instead of $25,000: more than twice as much money, twice as much happiness. But our data showed that people who earned $55,000 were just 9 percent more satisfied than those making $25,000. Nine percent beats zero percent, but it's still kind of a letdown when you were expecting a 100 percent return.
Interestingly, and usefully, it turns out that what we do with our money plays a far more important role than how much money we make. Imagine three people each win $1 million in the lottery. Suppose one person attempts to buy every single thing he has ever wanted; one puts it all in the bank and uses the money only sparingly, for special occasions; and one gives it all to charity. At the end of the year, they all would report an additional $1 million of income. Many of us would follow the first person's strategy, but the latter two winners are likely to get the bigger happiness bang for their buck.
We usually think of having more money as allowing us to buy more and more of the stuff we like for ourselves, from bigger houses to fancier cars to better wine to more finely pixilated televisions. But these typical spending tendencies — buying more, and buying for ourselves — are ineffective at turning money into happiness. A decade of research has demonstrated that if you insist on spending money on yourself, you should shift from buying stuff (TVs and cars) to experiences (trips and special evenings out). Our own recent research shows that in addition to buying more experiences, you're better served in many cases by simply buying less — and buying for others.

Android Police is reporting, via an anonymous tipster, that there is a physical, re-programmable Google Wallet card on the horizon that will essentially consolidate all of a user's physical payment cards into one. While details are limited on how the service will actually work, leaked screenshots show that the card will function like a regular, swipe-able credit card and will default to the user's preferred Google Wallet account.
Preliminary screenshots of the accompanying Android app show that the Google Wallet card will allow users to deposit and withdraw money to and from a "wallet balance," as well as transfer money to others with Google Wallet accounts. There is also evidence that the Wallet card will double as a transit card, though it's unclear whether it would utilize the same microchip tapping mechanism that some transit authorities use, like Clipper in the Bay Area.
The idea is that users will only need to carry around their smartphone and one essential credit card—the Google Wallet card. It seems counterintuitive considering the big push that Google has made for NFC. However, it could help Google immensely in this multi-platform market, where handsets like the iPhone do not have NFC chips and come equipped with their own proprietary payment service. It may also help Google overcome its issues with carriers like Verizon, which once blocked Google Wallet's NFC functionality and is now giving priority to third-party mobile payment services like Isis.
If you're interested, you can sign up to stay abreast of launch announcements for Google's new Wallet program, which may include the new physical card.

Jesslyn asks:
One of my teammates is a jack of all trades in our IT shop and I respect his insight.
However, sometimes he reviews my code (he's second in command to our team leader, so that's expected) without a heads up. He will review my changes before they complete the end goal and make changes right away... and he's even broken my work once before. Other times, he has made unnecessary improvements to some of my code that is 3+ months old.
This annoys me for a few reasons:
- I am not always given a chance to fix my mistakes.
- He has not taken the time to ask me what I was trying to accomplish when he is confused, which could affect his testing or changes.
- I don't always think his code is readable.
- Deadlines are not an issue and his current workload doesn't require any work in my projects other than reviewing my code changes.
Anyways, I have told him in the past to please keep me posted if he sees something in my work that he wants to change so that I could take ownership of my code and he's not been responsive. I fear that I may come off as aggressive when I ask him to explain his changes to me. He's a quiet person who keeps to himself, but his actions continue. I don't want to banish him from making code changes (not like I could), because we are a team—but I want to do my part to help our team.
How should I proceed?
See the original question here.
You don't own nothin'
Michael answers (55 votes):
I think most developers find themselves in this position at some point, and I hope that every developer who's felt victimized realizes how frustrating it will be when he or she becomes the senior and feels compelled to clean up code written by juniors.
For me, avoiding conflict in this situation comes down to two things:
- Courtesy: Talking to someone about his/her code allows a dev to know that you're interested and you can discuss it as grown up professionals.
- Forget about "code ownership," the team owns the code: Other people wanting to make the changes is a good thing. If a senior dev makes changes that are "unreadable" or worse, then back them out. You don't need to be aggressive, just let an editor know that his/her changes didn't work, and you're more than happy to discuss your reversion.
Remember, team ownership of code is great and it cuts both ways. If you see something that doesn't make sense in someone else's code, then fix it. Being overly possessive and inadequately communicative is a surefire way to create a poisonous development environment.

Fix the process
Yannis Rizos ♦ answers (56 votes):
You and most of the responders approach this as a communication issue between two colleagues, but I don't really think it is. What you describe sounds more like a horribly broken code review process than anything else.
First, you mention that your colleague is second in command and it's expected that he'll review your code. That's just wrong. By definition, peer code reviews are not hierarchical, and they are certainly not just about finding defects. They can also provide learning experiences (for everyone involved) and an opportunity for social interaction. They can prove a valuable tool for building collective code ownership. You should also review his code from time to time, learn from him, and correct him when he's wrong (no one gets it right every time).
Furthermore, you mention that your colleague makes changes right away. That's also wrong, but of course you already know it; you wouldn't have asked this question if his gung-ho approach wasn't a problem. However I think you are looking for a solution in the wrong place. To be perfectly honest, your colleague reminds me a bit of... me, and what worked for me in similar situations was a well-defined and solid review process and a set of awesome tools. You don't really want to stop your colleague from reviewing your code, and asking him to stop and talk to you before every little change is not really going to work. It might, for a while, but he'll soon reach a point where it will just get too annoying and you'll be back where you started, or worse: he'll just stop reviewing your code.
A key to a resolution here might be a peer code review tool. I usually avoid product recommendations, but for code reviews Atlassian's Crucible is really a life saver. What it does may seem very simple, and it is, but that doesn't mean it's not amazingly awesome. It hooks up to your repository and gives you the opportunity to review individual changesets, files, or groups of files. You don't get to change any code, instead you comment on everything that doesn't feel quite right. And if you absolutely must change someone else's code, you can simply leave a comment with the changeset explaining your changes. The introductory video at Crucible's product page is worth watching if you want more details. Crucible's pricing is not for everyone, but there are numerous freely available peer review tools. One I've worked with and enjoyed is Review Board. I'm sure you'll find a lot of others with a simple Google search.
Whatever tool you choose, it will completely change your process. No need to stop, get off your chair, interrupt the other person, and discuss the changes. All you need to do is set some time off every week and go through the comments (once a week is just a suggestion. You know your schedule and daily routine better than I do). More importantly, the core reviews are stored in a database somewhere and you can retrieve them at any time. They aren't ephemeral discussions around the water cooler. My favorite use case for old reviews is when introducing a new team member to our codebase. It's always nice when I can walk someone new through the codebase pointing out where exactly we were stuck, where we had differing opinions, etc.
Moving on, you mention that you don't always find this colleague's code readable. That lets me know that you don't have a common set of coding standards, and that's a bad thing. Again you can approach this as a people problem or you can approach this as a process problem, and again I would strongly suggest the latter. Get your team together and adopt a common coding style and set of standards as soon as possible. It doesn't really matter if you chose a set of standards that's common in your development ecosystem or you come up with your own. What really matters is for your standards to be consistent and that you stick to them. Lots and lots of tools out there can help you, but that's a whole different discussion. Just to get you started, a very simple thing to do is to have a pre-commit hook run some kind of style formatter on your code. You can continue writing your code however you like and let the tool "fix it" automagically before anyone else sees it.
Lastly you mention in a comment that management does not believe individual dev branches are necessary. Well, there's a reason we call them "dev branches" and not "management branches." I'll stop here as there's no reason for the rant that's forming in my head to get out.
All that said, know that I don't doubt your colleague is (a bit) at fault here. That's not my point, my point is that your whole development process is also at fault, and that's something that's easier to fix. Arm yourself with the proper tools, explore the numerous formal and informal processes, and pick those that fit your team. Soon you'll reach a point where you'll realize that most of your "people problems" don't exist anymore. And please don't listen to anyone (including yourself) that brings forth the "we're a small team, we don't need all that" excuse. A team of competent developers can set up the necessary tools in less than a week, automate everything that can be automated, and never look back again.
PS: "Code ownership" is a nebulous term, constantly debated, and it means different things to different people. You can find a brilliant collection of most of the differing (and sometimes antithetical) opinions on C2.

A worm previously used to commit financial fraud is now stealing Facebook login credentials, compromising at least 45,000 Facebook accounts with the goals of transmitting malicious links to victims' friends and gaining remote access to corporate networks.
The security company Seculert has been tracking the progress of Ramnit, a worm first discovered in April 2010, and described by Microsoft as "multi-component malware that infects Windows executable files, Microsoft Office files and HTML files" in order to steal "sensitive information such as saved FTP credentials and browser cookies." Ramnit has previously been used to "bypass two-factor authentication and transaction signing systems, gain remote access to financial institutions, compromise online banking sessions and penetrate several corporate networks," Seculert says.
Recently, Seculert set up a sinkhole and discovered that 800,000 machines were infected between September and December. Moreover, Seculert found that more than 45,000 Facebook login credentials, mostly in the UK and France, were stolen by a new variant of the worm.
"We suspect that the attackers behind Ramnit are using the stolen credentials to log-in to victims' Facebook accounts and to transmit malicious links to their friends, thereby magnifying the malware's spread even further," Seculert said. "In addition, cybercriminals are taking advantage of the fact that users tend to use the same password in various web-based services (Facebook, Gmail, Corporate SSL VPN, Outlook Web Access, etc.) to gain remote access to corporate networks."
Facebook fraud, of course, is nothing new. Facebook itself has acknowledged seeing 600,000 compromised logins each day, although that accounts for just 0.06 percent of the 1 billion daily Facebook logins each day.

Yesterday we posted about the little brother of The Bomb (strategic nuclear weapons): tactical, or lower yield, nukes. We cited a number of reasons that tactical pose as much of a threat as strategic. Among them are the exorbitant cost — modernizing the B61 tactical nukes in the U.S. stockpile will cost $10 billion. Another: they blur the distinction between nuclear and conventional weapons, as can be seen in the instance of Pakistan, which may be developing them for use against India.
On August 27, at Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, Kingston Reif outlined issues that tactical nukes raise with extended or umbrella deterrence (stationing nuclear weapons on the soil of our allies, ostensibly to provide them with the same deterrence that Americans "enjoy").
… the 2009 final report of the bipartisan Congressional Commission on the Strategic Posture of the United States … highlighted the importance of nonstrategic (or "tactical") nuclear weapons. … It noted that the continued deployment of approximately 200 US nonstrategic B61 gravity bombs in Europe and the maintenance of nuclear-armed Tomahawk cruise missiles … in the Pacific are essential to extending deterrence on behalf [of] US partners in Eastern Europe and East Asia. Without these capabilities, the commission hinted, some US allies might just choose to develop their own nuclear weapons.
In other words extended deterrence, intended to protects our allies from enemies, also deters those allies from seeking nuclear weapons of their own — friendly deterrence, if you will.
As far as the United States protecting our allies, Reif concludes:
The real lifeblood of extended deterrence lies in an ally's confidence in the strength of its political relationship with the United States. If relations fray, then extended deterrence will be perceived to be weak — no matter how many or what kinds of nuclear weapons the United States possesses.
Or, as Reif wrote in a postscript to the article at Nukes of Hazard, the blog of the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation (for which he serves as Director of Nuclear Non-Proliferation):
The more US interests are intertwined with allies, the more likely the United States is to come to their defense.

DURHAM, N.C.- Former Blue Devil standout Phil Henderson passed away Sunday at his home in the Philippines. Henderson, a senior captain on Duke's 1990 Final Four team, finished his Duke career with 1,397 points, 330 rebounds, 217 assists and 128 three-point field goals in 115 games.
"On behalf of the entire Duke Basketball family, we are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Phil Henderson," said head coach Mike Krzyzewski. "Our hearts go out to his mom and family. Phil was a talented player and a good man with a gentle soul. We will miss him dearly."
As a senior, Henderson led the Blue Devils in scoring at 18.5 points per game while earning second team All-ACC accolades. The University Park, Ill., native was at his best in March, averaging 22.3 points per game in tournament play en route to earning ACC All-Tournament, NCAA All-East Regional and NCAA All-Final Four team honors.
Henderson also earned ACC All-Tournament team and All-East Regional team honors in 1989. After scoring 21 points in a tournament win over Minnesota, Henderson netted 23 points in the regional win against Georgetown. He made one of the most memorable plays in Duke history in that contest, when he drove down the lane and dunked over Alonzo Mourning. Henderson started all 36 games as a junior and averaged 12.7 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game.
Henderson, a 1990 NBA Draft second round selection by the Dallas Mavericks, went on to play overseas for several years following his Duke career.

In July, Windows 8 passed Windows Vista in market share. In August, it passed every single version of Apple's OS X combined. Internet Explorer 10 grew sharply, too, as almost one in five Internet users now use the latest version of Microsoft's browser.
Windows 8 made substantial gains in August, picking up 2.01 points of share. This is 37 percent growth on July's figure. Windows XP also fell substantially, losing 3.53 points. With luck, this might mean that Windows XP is finally on the way out. It has less than a year until it stops receiving free security patches from Microsoft; once this happens, it will essentially be in a state of permanent zero day exploits. Even this level of decline isn't enough to see the operating system eradicated in time for its end of life. That's good news for spammers, who'll have plenty of zombie machines to recruit into botnets. It's bad news for everyone else.
Among desktop browsers, Internet Explorer was up 0.99 points, Firefox was up 0.59 points, and Safari was up 0.17 points. Chrome, however, was down significantly, losing 1.76 points. This means that, yet again, Chrome has closed in on Firefox, almost passing it, only to fall back.
Internet Explorer 10's growth slowed down in July but picked back up in August. It's still behind Internet Explorer 8 in total users, but it's closing fast. For Web developers, this can only be a good thing. Less good is the stubborn 6.32 percent of Web users who, for one reason or another, stick with Internet Explorer 6. The one-in-five Web users who use Internet Explorer 8 aren't much better.
This is a problem for everyone. The rapid release browsers—Firefox and Chrome—have the same issue to some extent. Even in spite of automatic, mostly transparent updates, there's a hard core of users who stick with old, unsupported, obsolete versions of the browsers. Mozilla has tried to cater to enterprises that have a legitimate need to stay on one version of a browser for an extended time with its Extended Support Releases. Both Firefox 10 and Firefox 17 received security updates for the better part of a year.
Microsoft has the same problem but on a far greater scale. Pushing out Internet Explorer 10 as an automatic update was clearly a step in the right direction, but this does nothing for anyone on Windows XP or Windows Vista, either in terms of updating their browsers or their operating systems. Clearly, the company has to do something to get these people moving, but thus far, it has been far from proactive about the issue.
Chrome is now really starting to pick up as a mobile browser. It picked up 1.16 points in August. Though it's still far behind the old Android browser, which gained 1.64 points last month, it shows that the install base of Android 4.x devices is on the rise even as Android 2.x remains abundant.

Naomi Guy: What I've Learned
44, Mum, Ex-Comp Climber, Boulderer, Tradster, Business Owner, Personal Assistant, British Ex-Pat in Boulder
Timing is everything, whether in snatching a small edge, efficiently stitching up a route, re-racking gear as I follow, watching the weather forecast, rushing from one client to another, catching the FedEx delivery truck, picking up my boss at the airport, getting the kids to school or meeting my climbing partner, who is also a single parent with a similar agenda. I only have a small window of opportunity these days. Cramming it all in is my style.
My friend and mentor Rob Parker gave me the best advice ever: "Avoid excess baggage of any kind." He was an inspirational man who lived life to the fullest, a visionary who built Undercover Rock, one of the first route-climbing gyms in the U.K.
During my time at Undercover Rock as assistant manager, I worked with a group of convicted car thieves. The program was a police-funded get-out-of-crime card. They were arrogant, cocky youths, full of themselves until they were halfway up the wall. Seeing these kids scream encouragement at each other, watching them experience the thrill, I realized how lucky I was. Here was a cool alternative for them: climbing. I saw how much it helped them deal with their demons.
No one catches you when you fall. You are your own safety net. I took a huge fall from the top of Hollows Way (V8) on Flagstaff 10 years ago. I spiraled down, landed on all fours, whiplashed my head and split my lip. Despite the mob of strong lads spotting below, no one even touched me.
Big falls from boulders have worn out my knees and ankles. I am learning to be selective with what I climb to extend my time.
In climbing you are both caught and a catcher. The role of catcher is more important. My friend Ian got to the top of Wall of Sound at Stanage, only to find the slopers covered in ice. He hit the ground on rope stretch and walked away with only a bruised butt. Letting yourself be caught is hard to learn. Just stop assessing and climb on relentlessly and if the fear enters the mind, just embrace it and tell yourself the damage will be minimal.
I love climbing onsight. It's the gift that keeps on giving. My most memorable onsight was Bloody Sunday (E4 6a) in Huntsmans Leap, Britain. It was damp, a committing and insecure experience, and a breakthrough at the grade for me. Onsighting goes beyond the rock, and it means having the strength and tenacity to plow through whatever life dumps in my lap. The most difficult onsight of my life was childbirth. Not being able to see what was coming, the next move or where to recover made it a lengthy ordeal.
All good climbers are cyclical, like moon phases. This rings true for women especially. The successes come in waves. You can't peak all the time.
I take nothing for granted: climbing plans, unstable ground, the weather, friendships, jobs, health. I've learned in the last few years that I only have one body and it can't really be re-conditioned.

As I mentioned exactly a month ago, I'm turning 40 this year. And it kinda knocked me over a bit. So, I started my celebration last month and will continue to celebrate the end of my 30's until December 7, 2010. Today I'm 39 8/12. (And yes, math nerds, I know I can reduce that to 2/3, but just work with me here... ;)
Last week, Chef-in-Training Johnson & Wales student Rosie came over and taught me and my friends how to make Challah (see post here), Cream Puffs and Pastry Cream. I've always been afraid of pastry cream, but Rosie's excellent teaching technique brought us two perfect batches: vanilla and chocolate.
We used Vanilla Paste - an inexpensive alternative to real vanilla beans. It gives you all the flecks of vanilla beans for much less green.
To celebrate my birthday, I'm having a MONTHLY giveaway until I turn 40. For the "4 month" countdown, I'm giving away a $39 8/12 Sur la Table gift card to one lucky winner! ($39.67 US Dollar gift certificate to Sur la Table). FCC Disclosure: My birthday giveaways are paid for by me.

Associated Press
NEWPORT, R.I. (AP) — If the Crawley family of "Downton Abbey" were American, they'd summer at Newport.
The wild stateside success of the British period drama about post-Edwardian aristocrats and their live-in help has piqued interest in the life of servants in the Gilded Age mansions of the seaside city. The nation's wealthiest families built Newport "cottages" in the 19th and early 20th centuries and would move their households here —servants, silver and all — from New York and elsewhere in the summer to enjoy the ocean breezes and society scene.
Just as the Downton servants develop relationships downstairs — think the frustrated love triangle of kitchen maids Daisy and Ivy with footman Alfred— servants in Newport carried on a lively social scene of their own. Many of their stories have begun to emerge after digging by researchers at the Newport Preservation Society, which owns several mansions. Newly discovered photographs, documents and family histories have inspired the creation of a tour about servants in one of Newport's most picturesque houses, The Elms, becoming one of the society's most popular tours.
Many mansions have been open to the public for decades, but with a focus on the wealthy families who lived there. Newport's grandest mansion, The Breakers, in recent years incorporated some information about servant life in its audio tour. But the new guided tour at The Elms centers squarely on servants and allows visitors into rarely seen parts of the mansion, including servants' quarters, the kitchen and the massive boiler room, where coal would be brought in through a tunnel that goes under the garden wall.
Meg A. Watt, a "Downton" fan from Stroudsburg, Pa., took the tour last spring, not long after it was started. The owners' side of the house is opulent with marble and gold. Just steps away, hidden behind doors, are plain hallways and rooms for use by the servants, she said.
"It gives you a completely different perspective," Watt said.
The Crawleys' own American grandmama, played by Shirley MacLaine, owns homes in New York and Newport. The city is even mentioned on the show from time to time, including by Lady Mary Crawley, who considers fleeing to America to wait out a scandal involving the death of a Turkish diplomat in her bed.
"It'll be dull but not uncomfortable," she remarks to her lady's maid, Anna, who asks to come with her.
They end up staying at Downton Abbey. But if they had gone to Newport, they might have found a house much like The Elms.
Completed in 1901, it was built as a summer home for Edward Julius Berwind, a coal magnate, and his wife. It was the first home in Newport that was completely electrified, boasted modern amenities such as an ice maker and telephone, and was even featured on the cover of Scientific American. The Elms was used as a residence until 1961.
The tour begins at the servants' entrance, which is covered by an arbor and therefore hidden from view so residents upstairs wouldn't see deliveries. The guide then leads people up five flights of stairs to the servants' quarters, leading visitors to wonder how someone like Downton's war-wounded Mr. Bates could manage such exertion several times a day. (An elevator is now available for those who need it.)
One servant's bedroom is furnished as it might have been at the time. One displays census records that show the names, occupations and countries of birth of the Berwind household's domestic staff: around a dozen maids, footmen and others from countries as varied as England, France, Germany and Sweden, a difference from the servants at Downton, who are mostly English, save a few including the Scottish housekeeper, Mrs. Hughes, and Irish chauffeur turned son-in-law, Tom Branson.
Another includes the story of the dismissal of the entire staff in 1902 after they asked for more time off, said John Tschirch, director of museum affairs at the mansions, who did much of the research on which the tour is based. The Berwinds replaced them with new servants brought up from New York.
Other bedrooms display photos of servants, as well as journals and other documents, many provided by servants' descendants. One shows a maid standing next to a rocking chair on the home's roof, which was a de facto porch for the staff. In the window next to her are flowers in pots.
In another photo, the Berwind household's longtime butler Ernest Birch, who married the cook, sits on a chair outside the mansion surrounded by footmen. One, much like Downton's footman-turned-valet-turned-assistant butler Thomas, seems to be throwing a little attitude.
Census records from 1895 show that around 10 percent of the population in Newport was domestic servants. Tschirch said staff would have "kitchen ratchets," parties in the kitchens of the different mansions, with food galore.
"That's where all the gossip was," he said. "You think of a social summer resort, the stories the servants could tell about each other, the people in town, the fashion."
Much of the information has come from servants' relatives who heard the Preservation Society wanted to hear from anyone who had lived or visited there, not just the owners. Tschirch said all kinds of family lore has surfaced, including a story about the cook, Mrs. Birch, whose finger was clawed by a lobster and had to be removed.
They're still looking for more, he said.
"The descendants," Tschirch said, "are beginning to feel that these houses are part of their family histories, too."

I came across a recent paper by Jan van Dijk that looks at the claims and achievements of digital democracy in the last 25 years. Here's the abstract of "Digital Democracy: Vision and Reality" [PDF] (highlights are mine):
Digital media have made a strong appeal to people wanting to improve democracy right from the start. Four waves of utopian visions of the last 25 years are described. The concept of digital democracy is defined. Subsequently, six views of both representative and direct democracy are distinguished that favor particular applications of digital media in politics and government. The next paragraph makes an inventory of the claims and achievements of 25 years of attempts to realize digital democracy in the field of information provision, online discussion and decision-making. It appears that information provision is the best realized claim. The final part of this chapter is about eParticipation in politics and policy. It discusses both government- and citizen-centric applications. Citizen-centric applications appear to be the most successful. Generally speaking, e-participation has not been successfully incorporated in institutional politics and government.
Van Dijk's paper adds to my list of readings on how little can be achieved by technology [PDF] in the absence of institutional change (something few seem to care about / understand).
But it also brings me to another issue that I think is not stressed enough: the current enthusiasm around technology and open government strikes me due to its lack of historical perspective. And, if history serves as any guide, advocates in the open government space would fare better in managing their (and others') expectations about what can and cannot be achieved by technology.
This reminds me of a quote I read in an article from 1994 by Armand Mattelart on the "promise of redemption" of communication technologies. The author refers to a speech by then vice-president Al Gore in 1994 at the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), defending the creation of the Global Information Infrastructure (GII). Al Gore's view for democracy and information technologies couldn't be any more enthusiastic:
The GII will not only be a metaphor for a functioning democracy, it will in fact promote the functioning of democracy by greatly enhancing the participation of citizens in decision-making. And it will greatly promote the ability of nations to cooperate with each other. I see an new Athenian Age of democracy forged in the fora the GII will create.
Nearly 20 years later, hopes similar to those of Al Gore can still resonate in blog posts, conferences and official documents.
I can't help but think of what Mattelart called "a strange alchemy of cynicism, naïveté and amnesia".

Judge: No trial delay in Trayvon Martin case
SANFORD — The murder trial for the Florida man charged in the shooting death of teenager Trayvon Martin remains set for a June start after a judge Tuesday denied a defense request for a postponement.
George Zimmerman's lead attorney Mark O'Mara presented a motion to have the trial pushed back to November. He argued that prosecutors had been slow to turn over needed evidence.
State attorney Bernie de la Rionda denied the accusation the prosecution had been dragging its feet and said it was rather a case of the defense using inefficient means to secure the information it wanted.
With roughly four months left before the scheduled June 10 trial, Judge Debra Nelson said she felt the defense still has time to work out the outstanding issues.
"I don't see any of your issues to be insurmountable," Nelson said in denying the motion.
The 29-year-old Zimmerman is claiming he acted in self-defense in shooting the 17-year-old last year after the two got into a fight and has pleaded not guilty to a second-degree murder charge.
On what would have been Martin's 18th birthday, a local community group gathered outside the Sanford courthouse to remember the teenager before the hearing.
Martin's parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, did not attend the remembrance nor the court proceeding because they were "overcome with emotion," said their family attorney Benjamin Crump.
"As (Trayvon's) brother said, it's hard on mom, because there's nobody to get a cake and ice cream for," Crump said.
Crump said Martin's parents are pleased that the case will progress as scheduled.
"We're focusing on this killing when it should be about remembering this young man's life today," Crump said.
Later in the afternoon he told a crowd at a "Banding Together for Peace" rally in Goldsboro — one of Sanford's historic black communities — that he felt "the spirit of Trayvon Martin was in that courtroom today."
Regarding the denial for a postponement, Nelson specifically noted that both the defense and prosecution said during a status hearing in late October that they could be ready by June.
But O'Mara said he never made that agreement about the June date last year and that without the delay and with a dwindling defense fund for Zimmerman, it would be difficult to secure the expert witnesses it wants to properly defend his client
"The only argument is that we need more time," O'Mara told the judge. "My defendant has the right to a fair trial and a rigorous defense."
O'Mara recently renewed his overtures to the public to donate more money for Zimmerman, writing on the defense's website that his fund has raised more than $314,000 since he was charged. But of that amount, $95,000 was spent on bail, almost $62,000 was spent on Zimmerman's living expenses during the past eight months and $56,100 was spent on security.
The pricey living expenses were the result of Zimmerman having to stay at extended-stay hotels until he could find a place to rent after his bail conditions were changed to restrict him to the Seminole County, Fla., jurisdiction of the shooting.
The defense did make some headway on a few of its other outstanding pretrial requests on evidence.
The judge is allowing a limited phone deposition with a woman known only as "Witness 8." The state says she is a teen with whom Martin was talking at the moment he encountered Zimmerman. Her testimony will likely be pivotal in the upcoming trial.
The defense is trying to obtain the names of her Twitter and Facebook social media accounts so that they can serve subpoenas to those companies.
The prosecution must also supply the defense a chain of custody, a list of tests performance and any reports generated when prosecutors sent Martin's cell phone to California to get help unlocking it for analysis.

Save iPhone Notes to a Gmail Account
For Gmail, Apple creates a label called Notes and saves the notes created in the Gmail section to your Gmail account. The notes can only be edited from an iPhone or iPod Touch and the changed are reflected in Gmail.
Some other new iOS 4 features that should be useful for Google users: Google Suggest in Safari's search box, an option to search the Web in Spotlight and the ability to add multiple Exchange accounts.

This is a nice addition but it requires to chose between Contacts and Notes syncing.ReplyDelete
Notes aren't available yet in Google Sync but it does Contacts http://www.google.com/mobile/sync, contrary to the IMAP Gmail solution recommended in this post.
Syncing my iPhone address book with my Gmail contacts is much more important than backing up my notes. And I'm sure it's the same for most Gmail users.
Here are the instructions to enable Google Sync on the iPhone: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252.Replies
Indeed, what I would do is first use iCloud to backup my iPhone contacts as per these directions:Delete
Next, simply transfer the notes to your Gmail account from within the iCloud by clicking on the Envelope icon at the bottom of each note.
This worked for me.
Not necessarily. You can add an IMAP account and an Exchange account for the same Gmail address. Then you should disable the overlapping features.ReplyDelete
IMAP: email, calendar [CalDAV?], notes
Exchange: email, calendar, contacts
I'd go with:ReplyDelete
Gail: Email, Notes
Exchange: Calendar, Contacts
The best of all worlds. Notes backed up online is a nice feature I wasn't expecting.
IMAP doesn't push email from Google (does it)? In that case, couldn't you do the following?ReplyDelete
GMail: Notes
Exchange: Calendar, Contacts, Email

This is one feature that makes me want to update.ReplyDelete
Here is my problem... I have several notes on the iphone but none under Gmail Notes (which is under IMAP). How do I transfer iphone notes to Gmail notes so I have them synchronized?ReplyDeleteReplies
- AnonymousJanuary 16, 2012 at 3:12 PM
Nobody is able to answer the actual problem. People are posting nonsense! I am looking for the same answer.Delete
- AnonymousJuly 1, 2012 at 3:05 PM
What I've done is copied and pasted the note under my gmail accounts in notes and it appeared in that notes folder in my gmail account.Delete
Question is, why isn't Notes syncing with Google Docs instead? Wouldn't that make more sense? I guess less people use Docs than Gmail?ReplyDelete
There's no way to move notes from the iPhone section to the Gmail section, at least not from the iPhone's interface.
It's Apple's decision. This feature is not restricted to Gmail, so saving notes as email messages is a reasonable solution.
@HolidayInn @Alex_Chitu:ReplyDelete
Alex, you're right, there isn't a way to move your notes from the "On My Mac" section to the "Gmail" section via the iPhone's interface...
BUT there is a very simply way to do it via the Mail app on your Mac. Here's the explanation I email to a friend of mine:
Notes will not automatically add your current notes to Gmail to sync, you must do that yourself by first backing up your phone so your notes are current, then opening the Mail app on your Mac, then copy the notes in the "On My Mac" folder to the "Gmail" folder.
This will automatically email all of your notes to Gmail and push them to the Notes app on your iPhone.
Now you can either delete the notes in the "On My Mac" folder or leave them there. I left them so that my notes will back up to Gmail on the go and then locally when I backup my phone every so often. Redundancy!
Make sure when you use the Notes app on your iPhone, you do it under the "Gmail" account. If you use the "All Notes" account you'll see all of your notes doubled ('cause if you don't delete the notes in the "On My Mac" account the same notes will exist there and in "Gmail." If continue to only use the "On My Mac" account, your notes will not push to Gmail for backup. Only the "Gmail" account will push everything in real time to Gmail.
What I did since I was away from a computer to get my notes from my phone to gmail, was to open up a note, select all, cut, the create a new note in gmail and paste. When you cut, it automatically deletes the note on the phone and then the paste puts it into gmail.ReplyDelete
This process can take a while if you have a LOT of notes, I only had like 15-20 notes so it only took a couple minutes to do.
I set gmail up to be the default area that new notes go so any new note i make automatically goes there.

Why bother using Notes at all when you can just save draft e-mail? It syncs and you can edit it in two places. Bonus: you'll never have to deal with that gawd-awful font Apple chose.ReplyDelete
From Apple's site:ReplyDelete
"When you enable Notes sync for an email account, the Notes folder will no longer appear as a mailbox in the Mail application. To create or view notes, use the Notes application instead.
If you create a notes subfolder for an IMAP folder, it will not sync with Notes nor appear as a subfolder in the Mail application. To resolve this issue, rename the subfolder.
If notes are not syncing as expected, check to ensure that the feature is enabled for that account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Mail Account."
I want to move my notes to simplenote. It sucks that All Notes are not visible under Gmail notes. Is there any other way than to email each not to yourself?ReplyDelete
Question... when setting up email now in iOS 4.0 what method should we use for Gmail accounts? Exchange (to get all the cal syncing) or Gmail (icon). I noticed the Gmail icon route offers the same options but is that push?ReplyDelete
The default option uses IMAP for mail and notes, but it also lets you sync calendar events. Gmail's IMAP doesn't support push email, so the mail client needs to periodically query the server.ReplyDelete
There's also Google Sync, based on Exchange ActiveSync, which supports push updates for email, calendar events and contacts. If you don't need push updates, use IMAP.
You can use both options for the same Google account, but it's a good idea to use a single protocol for the overlapping services (mail and calendar). For example, you can enable mail and notes in Gmail/IMAP, while enabling contacts and calendar in Google Sync/Exchange.

Would be good if you could add/edit notes within gmail, instead of just viewing them ;)ReplyDelete

It's high time that there's a viable open standard to sync a bunch of notes (rtf or html based preferably)...ReplyDelete
...but using IMAP seems like a mistake to me. You don't want to introduce general 'editability' feature to the existing mail standard (except for the draft folder).
On a practical level, I guess this makes a lot of sense though. Everyone has email(s) and most of them already supports IMAP. I guess I'll just gave to hope that the .NOTES folder gets rectified into the IMAP standard or something.
Doesn't work. After the first time a note syncs any changes are immediately deleted. No idea whether it's a gmail "feature" or a ios4 "feature" but it's a disaster when you keep losing things you type in.ReplyDelete
Rolling out features like this in the background requires someone to actually bug test it first. It's not like your signing up for something with a beta sign. Notes used to work properly; now it doesn't (unless you get on the net and crawl around figuring out what to turn off).
Big oops.
I'm not having the problem you are. I created a note and added some text. I went to Gmail on the computer and saw that it was there. Then I went back to Notes and added some more text. The note synced fine the second time as well and the new stuff stayed right where it should.
Not sure why you're having that problem...
I moved all my old notes to Gmail using Mail.app where I have both accounts set up. All you have to do is move them to the new Gmail IMAP Notes folder.
The same thing should work with any IMAP client
the notes failed to update my new texts appended. As a result, I lost my texts that I have spent an hour editing. This sucks!ReplyDelete
Mike: did you ever figure out this question?ReplyDelete
Mike said...
IMAP doesn't push email from Google (does it)? In that case, couldn't you do the following?
GMail: Notes
Exchange: Calendar, Contacts, Email

If you sync your notes with Gmail and then edit that note again on your iPhone you will see that the previous version of the note in your Gmail will still stay in your 'All Mail' folder but will lose the Gmail label of "Notes".ReplyDelete
This isn't a 2-way sync at all, it's just a backup of notes from iPhone to Gmail and every time you edit a note, it sends a new e-mail from yourself to yourself and adds the label "Notes" to it.

Thank you for this post. I just wanted to add my $0.002.ReplyDelete
After upgrading to iOS4 it was driving me crazy the fact that I was actually losing text in some of my Notes (I still can't figure out why, but it happens once in a while and other people here are reporting it as well, so I guess I'm not that crazy). There is a bug somewhere for sure.
I also found very frustrating that all of the sudden these emails showed up in Outlook with my Notes as self-sent emails, without even an explanation that this was going to happen. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the feature (even if it doesn't fit me), but I find annoying that it was forced on me without asking me first.
The other bug is that in the first iteration of iOS4 there used to be an option to set the account to sync your Notes (couldn't find it after upgrading to 4.1 (? latest). I had selected the "local" option; no account syncing, and even then it kept doing it.
I actually ended up switching to a different app because of the annoyances and more importantly, because I was loosing some of the text added to the Notes. I don't like the fact that I felt forced to stop using the naive Notes app because of all this. It's unfair.
PS: BTW, in case you ask, this "Awesome Note" app I found is pretty impressive with sync with Google Docs (never tried it) and EverNote (working fine). I'm not affiliated wit this app!
I am also having problems with losing my updates to my notes whenever I sync with gmail. This sometimes happens, and sometimes doesn't.ReplyDelete
I have some suspicion the losses happen when I edit the title line of the notes (which shows up as the email subject in gmail). Whereas if I am making edits several lines down, the synching seems pretty reliable. But I cannot be a 100% sure.
Can anyone else verify this or share their experience on a work around this problem?
- AnonymousJuly 31, 2010 at 11:48 AM
Having the same problem as of this morning. Seemed to be working last week without problems. Now, appending text to the end of a note works 95% of the time.ReplyDelete
However, my Notes app no longer seems to keep the changes if text toward the beginning of the note is edited. As an example, if you have a shopping list, items added to the bottom seem to stick most of the time. If I try to delete an item from the top, it initially looks like the change is saved, but after it syncs (can see the data upload/download indicator going), it reverts to the previous version.
For those concerned about the data being entirely lost, my edited versions do appear in Gmail in "All Mail."
- AnonymousAugust 7, 2010 at 8:26 PM
I find this whole situation cumbersome. First of all MS Notes is fairly primitive with no ability to search, it is all based on date created. I am also having the recent problem of notes either losing part of the textual update, or more recently just disappearing in total. Nothing is explained and I can't seem to find it in my Gmail account despite the posts above. Frankly, I will probably use Evernote as it is reasonable robust and at least doesn't lose notes. The MS notes application on the iPhone is an embarrassment.ReplyDelete
Bug, not a feature. I was wondering why all my notes recently were becoming e-mails. Completely unwanted behavior with no warning. It's great if this is a feature some people want, but to make it an unheralded default is just stupid.ReplyDelete
That said, thanks for posting this, it let me figure out how to turn this bug off!

Does anyone know of a way to Edit iPhone/iTouch notes directly on a PC (Windows) and then transfer them back to the device? There used to be a program called iPhoneNotes but it seems to have disappeared since iOS 3.0 came out...Thanks.ReplyDelete

Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Select relevant email account from the list>Slide Notes switch to OFF position.
The one important question to Apple is.. why it's not synchronized with Google notebook insted the mail!? I use the google notebook a lot.. it would be really helpful.ReplyDelete
Many reasons: Google Notebook is no longer developed and will probably be discontinued soon, new users can't sign in, Google Notebook doesn't have an API etc.ReplyDelete
As an iOS 4 beta tester, I was using this for months. But the last few weeks none of my notes were syncing. Had a look around Settings and, huh?, no mention of notes sync is there. Have a look in your IMAP / Exchange account settings. Email, calendars and contacts switches are all there for me but as of 4.1 these last few weeks, notes is gone. Now I'm stuck with local.ReplyDelete
Just me or is this gone now?
- AnonymousSeptember 23, 2010 at 2:33 AM

It's still available for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), according to this page.ReplyDelete

This is another great tutorialReplyDelete
Notes as per the first image use to work with version OS4.0, but in OS4.1, it has disappeared. I cannot find where this has happened. Anyone know?ReplyDelete
Theres is a known bug regarding using the same account using IMAP and Push in the iPhone. If you have IMAP and push added, the mail sent from outside MAil.app will get stuck in outbox. Try it: send a link from Safari and you will see the mail in the outbox until you tap in the message.ReplyDelete
I decided not to use Notes and change to Evernote until this bug is fixed.
Hope it helps. Sorry for my English as I am not native. =)

I have no problem with this at all! Everyone is saying this is not a 2-way sync, but only a backup. That is not true. If I edit my notes on my iPhone they get automatically pushed down to my iPad and vice versa. Does the job for me!ReplyDelete
NOT ANYMOREEE......Note setting under gmail has disappeared ????? what happened to it? anyone?ReplyDelete
If your notes don't show up in gmail, simply copy the text from one of your notes and create a new note in the gmail account of the account section of the note app and paste the text into a new note under your gmail account.ReplyDelete
okay what the h*** did happen here: notes and contacts stopped syncing! I go Setting>M,C,C>Gmail and the switchs has disappeared :S But they are working on my iPad! I just bought iPad so is it possible that they can be synced on one device at a time?ReplyDelete
You're probably using an iPhone 3G and the latest version of iOS, which no longer supports notes sync for iPhone 3G (the feature is still available for iPhone 3GS/iPhone 4/iPad).
This is a great tutorial. But i believe it may need to be updated.ReplyDelete

I have iPhone 3GS using ios4 and now iPad and when I first started using the iPad I could edit a note and the changes would appear in notes on my iPhone.

The notes is just set up as a standard mail account but obviously I have switched off m,c,c.ReplyDelete
Any thoughts/help on why this would work sometimes but not all? I might try setting up a separate Gmail account just to sync notes given the bug mentioned by Arkamor.

Just a comment that I synced my notes with the Gmail config thinking it was a nice online backup. It worked fine, but then I was in the thousands that lost the gmail data in late Feb 2011, and the notes were removed from the iPhone, and the Google tape restore did not recover them.ReplyDelete
To copy notes from the iPhone to Gmail, after appropriately setting up the Gmail account on the iPhone.ReplyDelete
I had a bunch of notes on my iPhone, that were synced to my Exchange account.
I wanted to have a backup in my Gmail account.
The only way I found is to go over the notes on my iPhone, in the "from my PC" folder, copy the note test, go over to the Gmail folder (in Notes), create a new note and paste the text there. Then save the note - and you'll see it immediately under the Notes folder in Gmail.
And so on, note by note.
Take attention to paste the note with the correct alignment (in case of non-English users, with right-to-left languages).
Annoying process, but at least it works.
After having my notes synced with gmail, everytime I email someone, my name appears as "Notes" and I went to settings/accounts, to see that it isn't supposed to show as notes ... Any help?ReplyDelete

I've had this set up for some time, but a "Notes" label was never created. Is this supposed to be automatic or does one have to manually create the label? Has anyone else had this problem? Notes are not syncing as emails, despite being enabled in Settings > Mail, Contacts > Gmail IMAP. Also, default Notes account is set as Notes > Account > GMail IMAP.ReplyDelete
Is there any versioning associated with this? I lost my phone and it seems that all of my notepad files are in my gmail "Notes" folder.. except one notepad file is not there. I'm sure it was there at some point before I lost my phone.ReplyDelete
Is there any way to recover this?

I like the option to create a note on the phone and it saves to your email, but is there a way to create a note in the email and have it sync to the notes on the phone? I created numerous test notes in my email, but they don't show on the phone. is this even possible?ReplyDelete
Syncing notes with Gmail is quite an interesting way of instantly backing up your notes, but I just don't get why in iOS5 (and maybe earlier iOS versions ... this iPhone is my first Apple device) Notes seem to have to be associated with an email account. Why can't they just be synced with iCloud like the contacts, calendar, etc.? I think maybe I'll stick with using iTunes to sync my Notes with Outlook for the time being.ReplyDelete
Notes need to be associated with an email account to be synced because they're actually treated like email messages and saved to a folder in your email account. Even if you use iCloud, you still need to create a @me.com email address to sync notes.Replies

I did the GMAIL sync on my iPhone. I wrote a TEST note for the gmail account also. Where can I find this note on Google?Delete

You have a good understanding of this Alex. Can you tell me how to create a note in gmail and have it synced to the iphone notes section. I works the other way for me: iphone to gmail notes but I do not know how to go from gmail to iphone? In gmail under the label "notes" all your can do is send an email? how do you make a note?Delete
You can only create notes on an iPhone or iPad, not from a Gmail account. Even if you label a message as "notes", it won't sync with the Notes app.Delete
Alex you seem to know this well. I can create notes on iphone or ipad and they do go into my gmail "notes label" section but how do I go the other way? When I go into label section in gmail all I can do is create an email message not a note?Delete
Thank you, yes you know your stuff. Is there any way to do it with google docs into the notes app of your iphone and ipad?Delete
No, iOS uses IMAP accounts to sync notes, so you can only use services like Gmail, Yahoo Mail, iCloud. You can't use Google Docs.Delete
Note sync is just a workaround, not a proper way to synchronize notes. There are better services like Evernote.
Alex how do I view the notes in gmail? Just look in notes label? If so the view is not great. Looks more like email than notes. How do you sort or search?Delete
- search:Delete
label:notes keyword
- there's no sort option in Gmail (or in the Notes app)

Apple are by far the most useless bunch of morons known to humanity.ReplyDelete
This is the second time it has simply given up syncing my notes to gmail after working fine for ages. The first time I assumed that turning syncing on and off would fix it... which it did... if you count deleting all the notes from the phone and downloading them all again from gmail, messing up the dates in the process. This meant I lost the ones that had not been synced, a week's worth of important notes gone all because I assumed Apple were competent. Honestly why would the email client take priority over the phone when it should contain the original and gmail the backup?
www.Geenote.com allows you to manage your Iphones notes (already synced with gmail). It allows you to add, edit ,delete your iphone notes from your gmail account.ReplyDelete

Thanks for sharing! Here's also a guide about syncing notes from iPhone to Mac.ReplyDelete
Since iPhone 6s and iPhone SE don't let iPhone fans' eyes light up in designs and functions, more and more iPhone users plan to switch from iPhone to Android phone. And if you also want to ditch iPhone but have some important data, like notes, you may want to transfer them from iPhone to Android phone for further use. However, both operating systems have different programming structure, there is no way to directly transfer data from iPhone to Android via a simple USB cable or Bluetooth transfer. You need to make use of some tools to help you finish the task.ReplyDelete

In keeping with my previously established, more disciplined approach to newsy important posting (as opposed to the manner in which I present the more imaginative, inconsequential posts), I am telling you up front that today you have an opportunity to win a copy of my friend Sharon Silverman's incredible new book, Crochet Scarves: Fabulous Fashions – Various Techniques (Stackpole Books, 2012). I guess that's your carrot. 🙂
It occurs to me that the efficacy of the whole carrot (the reward) and stick (the threat) thing completely depends upon your species, your point of view and inclinations. If you're a pony, then OK. Consider my dog. To him, carrots are not edible (this is the little brat who often behaves as though dog food isn't edible, either.) Put a carrot in his dish and he'd probably sniff it, scratch all around the dish for a few minutes, push the carrot out of the dish, toss it around the floor for another few minutes before beginning to whine. But present him with a stick… WOWSERS, a stick! He'll chase that stick until he collapses in panting exhaustion. So to him the carrot is the threat; the stick the reward. Speaking as a person who doesn't care much for carrots, I'd be much more motivated if you dangled chocolate cake instead. And if the stick can be used to hold crochet stitches, then that's going to be more intriguing than threatening. It would have to be something totally horrible, like, say pattern sizing, to be a true threat. If offered the chocolate cake or the pattern sizing, you could get me to pull the cart, no question. See what I mean?
So for the sake of a better figure of speech, I should really let you fill in your own choice. Sharon's new book, Crochet Scarves is [your reward here]. Turns out Sharon Silverman and I are practically neighbors. We finally met face to face last spring over some evil orchids. But that's another story.
The concept of this book is quite brilliant. In Sharon's hands, the lowly scarf becomes the canvas for the exploration of various crochet techniques, ranging from mitered squares to lace and colorwork, broomstick crochet and (what I consider to be her specialty) Tunisian crochet. Each of the 21 scarf projects is accompanied by an achingly complete tutorial, including step-by-step images of hands, hook and yarn, stitch symbol diagrams and close-up shots of the fabric. No matter what sort of learner you are, Sharon's got you covered. Not only do her lessons prepare you to make the scarf designs in the book; this is stuff that will boost your confidence when working on other people's designs (including mine!).
While Sharon's scarves are the perfect teaching tools for techniques, they are also majorly wonderful opportunities to experiment with different yarns. Many of the projects require just one skein of fabulous yarn, or one skein of each color. I have two favorite designs. Cactus Lace alternates broomstick with rows of double crochet to great effect.
Electric Lime is an awesome way to make variegated yarn look good in crochet. It is done in Tunisian net (also called Tunisian full stitch) that allows the color changes to overlap, like bargello. Clever.
My blog today is merely the first stop on the tour for Crochet Scarves, a month-long celebration. Check Sharon's website and Facebook page for the latest links and book giveaways.
Now the exciting part. Please leave a comment below to enter a drawing to win a copy of Crochet Scarves compliments of Sharon Silverman and Stackpole Books. You don't have to write anything fancy. Sucking up to either me or Sharon won't improve your chances because a number will be chosen at random. Yeah, right. Deadline for comments is midnight Eastern Time, 21 July, Saturday night. I'll be back on Monday to announce the winner and award the carrot. Or chocolate cake. Whatever. 🙂
