If you’ve got large amounts of data to sync, you may want to consider taking a look at iCloud (http://www.icloud.com). I find it is often dismissed because it’s primarily marketed as a cloud OS, but in truth, I have yet to find any other cloud storage provider that comes close in value (25GB for just over $4/mo; a little over $8/mo for 100GB!).

I’m not a mac user, but I’ve been using iCloud to sync between Ubuntu Mav and several Windows variants. I’ve never had any access issues or downtime, and plan to renew soon for a third year. After some extensive trial-and-error, I even managed to mount the webDAV share directly to my Linux boxes. I’ve never even bothered with the cloud-based OS features.

One glaring omission that keeps it from being the end-all solution (IMO) is lack of ftp access, but their forums seem to indicate that the idea is not abandoned.

My $.02 – Hope it helps.

I had gone completely off of my diet during the holidays. Part of this was planned as I wanted to establish a baseline and then experiment. And am convinced wheat is indeed poison. The difference between my mood, energy level and all the gastric distress that is brought on when I introduce wheat into my diet is pronounced.

Which is good because I also have MenuCalendarClock and I don’t think that was actually working in my last setup.

Thanks again, Mark!

It’s possible iCal can do it, I’ll have to check that out. When I first started with BusySync/Cal I could only do ReadOnly to the Google Calendar. And I liked to be able to add events to my calendar without launching the site in my browser.

I’m not sure why you’re using BusyCal, though. Can’t you just wire iCal to Google Calendar though the latter’s CalDAV support?

Amy, I too picked up & started St Louis’s D against the Lions this week. They killed me too & I feel your pain! But I still would have lost by 5 points if I started no D so probably not as much pain!

I would agree. In general I would expect people to choose less regulated industries or migrate away from industries as they become more regulated. This is not based on any sources or studies I’ve read but I suspect numbers are available if someone were to go looking. Although, I think, you may get a different kind of person migrating into that position. Politicians instead of physicians.

No reason to question her dedication. I guess its always possible for someone to get tired of their career or decide something else is more intersting. However, if people are treating you poorly it sounds it’s probably, at minimum a contributing factor.

So based on your supposition, you expect to see a general movement of people away from occupations with the most regulations toward those with less regulations? That’s reasonable and it seems like a testible hypothesis to me; I wonder if there is any data to support it?

Yes, I suspect they feel entitled somehow to have whatever they want or need. Granted some people are just jerks and that could explain it but this was a small practice and she would literally spend as long as needed with each family answering questions and explaining her medical judgements. So it’s not possible to question her dedication to her craft or feel she just grew tired of it. To feel saddened is one thing. To feel like you were unjustly wronged is unwarranted and wrong.

I suspect more and more of the better doctors will for various reasons need to flee to other careers or less risky positions. Those that will flourish under the increasing regulations will be those you don’t want.

“I think the idea that makes people think they were right to yell at this woman is very closely related to the idea that makes them think they are right to force the doctors, insurance companies and ultimately their neighbors to provide healthcare under government coercion.”

Well these people will get what they deserve but it’s too bad that you and your family had to suffer for it.

They were screaming at the doctor? As the goverment expands its control, that type of terrible behavior is only going to get more common.
