iPhone alarm not working 2011

So how can you fix this potentially life-ruining problem? Well until Apple patches its OS — and it#39;s currently unclear if this is just iOS 4.2.1 or earlier versions as well — you can simply create a recurring alarm at the time you need to be woken up, and then disable it once your dreams are completely ruined. We#39;re taking a deeper look into the issue and have contacted Apple — if we get more news, you guys will be the first to know. In the meantime, feel free to commiserate in comments

Scott Disick: The Best Dad Ever?

Sorry, Bill Cosby. Move over, Brad Pitt. Eat it, Jon Gosselin. Kris Jenner says there’s a new candidate for Best Father Alive, and you won’t believe who it is. “I think Scott has definitely done a 180,” Kris tells OK! Weekly of quasi son-in-law Scott Disick . “He’s matured over the last year in the way he’s treated Kourtney. He’s the best dad.” Jenner says a stint in rehab did Disick well. “Nobody is more thrilled and impressed than I am. Scott did it on his own. He took responsibility for whatever was going on with him and just decided to get his act together. And it’s been amazing.” Still, Scott Disick as the best dad ever ?!? Do you agree with this assessment?

Celebrity of the Year Finalist #4: The Jersey Shore Cast!

With 2010 drawing to a close, it is with much pride that THG unveils its 10 finalists for its prestigious, Fourth Annual Celebrity of the Year award. These stars all gave us their best, their worst, their nude pics (sometimes) and their scandals (often). This month, THG honors that greatness. After the Kardashians kame in at #5, we present an even more useless group as our Celebrity of the Year finalist #4 … the Jersey Shore cast! Love ’em or hate ’em, they left their mark in 2010 . We know. They are idiots. You can spare the “what a bunch of losers with no future and bad values” bit, because we f*%king know. Maybe that’s the appeal. You can argue how undeserving they are of fame and fortune all day long, and you won’t be wrong. But doesn’t that apply to many “celebrities” nowadays? In terms of raw impact on popular culture, few have had the impact of this gang of guidos and guidettes, who rose from obscurity to household names. Say what you will about this talentless, attention-starved crew – and, Lord knows, we will until they finally go away – but Jersey Shore ‘s success can’t be denied. Like the Kardashians, Snooki, JWoww and The Situation embody the celebrity gossip culture of the 2000s. And to top it off, they can actually be pretty funny. More Jersey Shore quotes have become part of the lexicon this year than we can even count (or like to admit). Snooki was the year’s top Halloween costume. You may hate them, but it’s a love-to-hate kind of hate. At least to some degree, they are in on the joke at this point. They are getting paid to party and sleep around, which they would do anyway, and loving life. Hilarious, depressing and astounding at the same time, five million people tune in to watch their over-the-top antics because, deep down, we can all relate. Maybe not to cat fights, stints behind bars or the constant threat of STDs, but to crashing with our friends, cracking jokes, and living it up as young adults. With a new season kicking off next month (check out the Season 3 trailer ), here’s a tribute to some of the year’s top moments provided by these characters:

Climate Refresher: Runaway Global Warming (Video)

It’s good to brush up on the basics once in a while — especially when political and ideological arguments have consumed the public narrative on climate change. It’s important to understand the scientific reasons addressing climate change is so urgent in the first place. Chief among them is the possibility of runaway global warming. Preeminent NASA climate scientist Ja… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Did Oprah Winfrey Ask an Australian Shop to Remove Blackface Dolls?

Remember how Harry Connick Jr. guest-judged an Australian talent competition TV show last year, and was put in the awkward position of having to tell a Jackson 5 tribute band in full-on blackface that their act was wildly offensive ? You may not, but Oprah Winfrey — who flew 300 screaming fans Down Under last week — probably does, and she’s allegedly hellbent on eradicating the country’s racist traditions, one golliwog “washerwoman” doll at a time.

First Spider-Man Set Photos Confirm I Could Get Used to Emma Stone as a Blonde

The Spider-Man reboot is going to be so awesome , if only because it may very well be the first film in the history of Hollywood from which we’ll apparently have paparazzi photos delivered to our desktops every single day , followed by total speculation educated guessing about what’s happening in said photos, thus creating our own parallel Spider-Man universe where gossip, comic-book narratives and photo-agency spoilers converge in a continually evolving fanboy fantasia. Excited yet? Anyway, my point is that my first impression of Emma Stone’s return to her natural blond hair color was wrong: She looks great. Click through for the first shots of Stone, in character as Gwen Stacy, from the first day of shooting.
