Lazy Sunday

by

So you find yourself in bed on a Sunday morning and you have flicked through Flipboard on the iPad when you remember that the new [wikipop search=”EPUB”]ePub[/wikipop] edition of Programming in Objective-C by Stephen Kochan is on the iMac downstairs. Phew! Downstairs! No problem. We have Prompt with which we can log into the sleeping iMac and [wikipop]mv[/wikipop] the book into the iMac’s Dropbox folder from which automagically it appears in the iPad’s Dropbox and then opens in iBooks.

Of course you could just get the iBooks version 😉 but where’s the fun in that?

Lazy Sunday = Small Faces…

…and thence Stanley Unwin.

Dave Brubeck

Dave Brubeck (December 6, 1920 – December 5, 2012)

A 1964 video of Dave Brubeck, Paul Desmond, Eugene Wright and Joe Morello performing Take Five (written by Desmond) which had been a recent visitor to the “pop hit parade” as presented by Steve Race in those distant black and white days when presenters, performers and audience wore shirts and ties.

 

The 1971 fight (or is it sex?) between the piano and drums at the Newport Jazz Festival from The Last Set At Newport is a favourite version…

 

More Apple Mapping

Whilst one can appreciate the humour…

…and the apology

if you want to see what the Tesco store in [wikipop]Gerrards Cross[/wikipop] (the one [wikipop search=”Gerrards Cross Tunnel”]built over the railway line[/wikipop]) looks like you can turn to your trusty Maps folder on your iOS 6 device…

and see that, according to Nokia Maps, it is a building site…

and from Google Maps we learn that it is a slightly more advanced building site…

but with Apple Maps we can see it is a fully functioning store.
