For those who cannot give blood, I understand that feeling as I'm in that group with 2 cases of cancer. Before I was diagnosed I did give a few (too few) times and wish I had given more.
For those who can give blood, I've seen the huge need. My wife had acute leukemia (ALL) and over 18 months of chemo was in desperate need of blood 10 times. Fortunately the blood & platelets were available when needed.
After that experience I felt I should have given more, but have no hesitation asking you to give a few units.

as in the What cool little OS apps do you use? Thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=58101) i've enthusiastically urged people to give butler (http://www.petermaurer.de/nasi.php?thema=butler&sprache=english) a go. its a great second dock/os9 application menu as well as a quicksilver-esque fast finder launcher. it also customizes smart items to skip itunes tracks, control volume, and rate music on the fly. very customizable and the only thing you'll run in the background of your machine. it is donorware, but you'll feel like paying for it. ;)

I am saying that the present UK tariff of 16 years minimum provides adequate protection for the public, and is not an attractive alternative to liberty.
I agree, as I said a family member works for the Probation Service and I am studying law now and it has completely changed my perspective of crime/criminals.
It is such a shame that the media/tabloids still thinks all criminals are inherently evil and spreads rubbish and incorrect headlines like "Europe says rapists must have vote" (prisoners votes recently).
Anyway, life sentance guidlines were reviewed in 2003 and they are currently as follows-
Whole life - two or more people killed and-
a substantial degree of premeditation or planning,
the abduction of the victim, or
sexual or sadistic conduct,
the murder of a child if involving the abduction of the child or sexual or sadistic motivation,
a murder done for the purpose of advancing a political, religious or ideological cause, or
a murder by an offender previously convicted of murder
30 year minimum - where the offence involves-
the murder of a police officer or prison officer in the course of his duty,
a murder involving the use of a firearm or explosive,
a murder done for gain (in furtherance of robbery or burglary...),
a murder intended to obstruct or interfere with the course of justice,
a murder involving sexual or sadistic conduct,
the murder of two or more persons,
a murder that is racially or religiously aggravated or aggravated by sexual orientation, or
15 year minimum - applies to any murder not covered by another category
12 year minimum - applies to any murder committed by someone under the age of 18 (EDITED)
These are guidelines, but Judges must justify deviating from them.
Remember, these are minimum terms, all murders get a life sentence. It doesn't mean people will be released after the minimum term. As I said above, most murders in the UK did not intend to kill someone, that is not necessary for conviction here, only intent to cause GBH.
I'm very happy with UK sentencing. Good balance between punishment and public protection. The homicide rate in the UK is very low!

I think Apple waited too long to bring the iPhone to Verizon. By the time they did many diehard Verizon customers had just bought Android alternatives. I think Apple got a little too sucked in by the exclusive money from AT&T, but in the end it might end up hurting them.
Now Apple is going to have to fight to get those customers in the coming year or two, all the while Android is getting better and better.
I'm an iPhone 4 customer on AT&T, but I'm still able to see the big picture. They should have had the iPhone on Verizon a year earlier.

Let's say there's a particular app with stored changes, for example a game that remembers which levels I've completed, but doesn't offer anything to "reset" all this. How can I force it be as it was when I downloaded it for the first time, with no memory of any changes?

There honestly is no need to update the iPhone line EVERY year at this point. iPhone 4 was the biggest jump and I don't see a reason to jump again so soon, especially after Verizon customers JUST recived access to the phone. I can understand updating the models to include 4G, but at this point 4G IMHO is not needed. It's not a mature enough standard to expect iPhone owners to have smooth service with Verizon and AT&Ts 4G networks. I see them both being great next year, but it'd be a forced move on Apples part to update so soon.
I disagree, whether you call it a refresh or all new phone, several things must be addressed by Apple in the current model:
1. replace back glass with metal or carbon fiber enclosure;
2. replace antenna design;
3. use 4" screen, even at same resolution;
4. offer 64gb model.
One even more important change, which I KNOW they won't do, is use a universal radio chip that can support GOS and CDMA networks - no more having to buy a new phone every time you switch carriers - oops, that cuts agains Apple's AND the carriers interest - not much traction there.

I have the opposite problem. I get much more spam through to my inbox on my gmail account than I do with .mac . As always, YMMV.
I discovered 0spam (www.0spam.com) about a year ago, check it out, it's dropped my spam count in 4 accounts I have from about 2000 - 2200 a day to less than 5 a week! Works with *any* email accounts webbased or otherwise. Awesome :p

Okay! Okay.
I understand that you don't particularly feel like buying a pre-licked router.
So now only $10 shipped! That's a hell of a deal!

That's funny, because the ice team I started playing with (all straight guys except for me) recently kicked a guy off the team for using the F word repeatedly, and that was before I joined. I don't feel the need to use slurs when I play, and neither do they. They think it's cheap, immature and they won't tolerate it.
That's actually very surprising (in a good way). People usually aren't as sensitive to that word as they are with the N word, especially straight people.

Hiya folks
I have a 1tb usb drive pluged into my airport extreme. I can see the drive just fine, it's mounted on my desktop right now. But I want to get Time Machine to use it for backups... But when I try to set up time machine, it doesn't list the network drive in the list. So is there a way I can get it to work? Or will I just have to plug the drive into my Mac instead (which I don't wanna do)?
