<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Several years ago, my friend Switchy called me, all upset. </p>
<p>Being the <em>totally incredible </em>friend I am, I was upset for him, even though I didnt quite know why he was upset. Im cool like that, im fresh like that. </p>
<p>As it turned out, his then girlfriend had been arrested for something very minor, and had spent a few hours in cells. He, of course, was very worried about her. From his voice, it sounded like he was exhausted, and I was pretty sure he had gotten sleep that could be measured in minutes, not hours. Poor guy.</p>
<p>I tried being nice about it, pointing out that she was home now, and the offense wasnt serious, and that everything was a-okay.</p>
<p>He cut me off. He knew all of that, and that part wasnt a problem. </p>
<p>Well&#8230;&#8230;okay.</p>
<p>The problem was that when she got home, he made her waffles thinking that she was probably hungry, <em>and she spurned them. </em></p>
<p>While I felt bad for Switchy, it became a longstanding joke in my house. </p>
<p>A few years later, I was briefly detained for something incredibly minor. I won&#8217;t go into it here, not because im embarrassed, but because it was boring, and I dont write this blog to bring you the boring. I wasnt arrested, I wasnt charged, and the whole thing was a mix of a stupid misunderstanding and me being bitchy about dealing with stupid misunderstandings. Honestly, it was the mostly me-being-bitchy thing. Oh well.</p>
<p>Anyways, 45 minutes and much explanation after I was detained, I was released. Johnny Rotten came to pick me up, and we were on our merry (okay, <em>he </em>was merry. <em>I </em>was pissed off still) way.</p>
<p>Only, he didn&#8217;t drive to the house. He took all the wrong turns. Being pissed off, I snapped at him a little, demanding to know where we were going. </p>
<p>His only response? &#8220;You&#8217;ll see.&#8221;</p>
<p>One more turn, and we were in the parking lot of IHOP. The realization hit: I was about to sit down to an enormous plate of the holy grail of breakfast foods, the jail waffle.</p>
<p>It rocked.  For real yall, there is nothing better. I hope I never have to deal with that again, but if I do? Waffles are the light at the end of that tunnel. Trust.</p>
<p>Switchy and that girl broke up not long after I had jail waffles myself, and while I was sympathetic towards his sadness, I was secretly superhappy. She really didnt deserve him or his waffles. </p>
<p>Maybe finding whether or not your current love interest is The One isnt complicated at all. Maybe it all comes down to waffles. If they were to get held, would you make them waffles? Would they appreciate them if you did? If the answer is no, its time to move on. Its the little things, folks. The little, syrup soaked things.</p>

<description><![CDATA[There has been an issue with the ex-husband. A year ago, I informed him that the timeshare we own to]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There has been an issue with the ex-husband. A year ago, I informed him that the timeshare we own together didn&#8217;t have my name on their records so he needed to handle the timeshare, pay the yearly dues and find out what needed to be done to change the deed. A year later and I discover I have 1.3K in collections in both his name and mine because he didn&#8217;t take care of the issue and the company magically discovered my name when they didn&#8217;t get last year&#8217;s annual dues.</p>
<p>I now am having to find a lawyer because I need to get the deed changed and he won&#8217;t sign anything other than transferring the entire deed to me, something that is going to leave me 3k poorer before legal fees (I don&#8217;t have that kind of fucking money!) and then somehow get rid of the property myself so that I&#8217;m not having to continue to pay yearly dues that I can&#8217;t afford.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m so fucking triggered right now I can barely function. I&#8217;ve not been able to even call the base legal to find out if this is something that they can help me with because I&#8217;m so fucking triggered and switchy that I can&#8217;t handle the anxiety of talking about this out-loud right now, particularly to someone I don&#8217;t know, particularly with someone related to the military which already is a triggering issue for me. I also worry about going to base legal because I have to watch what I say to lawyers on base because of the timeline of my husband and I meeting and being involved. It means I&#8217;m probably not going to call them and will seek legal advice from a friend&#8217;s mother who is a lawyer, even if it is just getting her to recommend another lawyer who can work the issues.</p>
<p>The other thing, that is beyond simply going to base legal is the fact that there is no guarantee that they can help me. There is a limited number of things that they are authorized to assist with, and it is rarely things that are actually useful other than powers of attorney or wills. They could advise me about an issue for free, but they can&#8217;t draw up paperwork on a number of issues so I don&#8217;t see the point in going to them if I&#8217;m risking a lot by talking to them and they probably can&#8217;t help me do what I need to for the paperwork portion of things anyhow.</p>
<p>In addition to this I also need to get my husband on my younger son&#8217;s birth certificate and change both my son&#8217;s names so their last names match ours. These are all things that are immensely triggering to even focus on, but things that seriously need to be handled so I can remove the last traces of my ex out of my life. I&#8217;m not sure how to proceed, but maybe if I can talk to my friend&#8217;s mom then I can get the beginning of an idea&#8230;even if it costs me more money.</p>
<p>Lets just simplify the whole situaiton: I am willing to pay whatever it fucking takes to get the last traces of my abusive fuckhead of an ex out of my life for good. I don&#8217;t want to see his name, I don&#8217;t want to have to deal with his godforsaken wife because he doesn&#8217;t have the balls to talk to me and has convinced her that I was abusive to him!!! I want to be free of them and right now I&#8217;m not&#8230;the trauma is dragging along because I&#8217;m not yet truly free.</p>

<description><![CDATA[There are many tweaks in Cydia that allow you to get the most out of your AppSwitcher but perhaps no]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many tweaks in Cydia that allow you to get the most out of your AppSwitcher but perhaps none like Switchy. Switchy is a new tweak that enhances the use of your AppSwitcher. It adds an extra row of open applications, making a total of eight icons displayed together. The new Music Switcher hosts the Music App shortcut, the play/pause and forward/backward button, with a volume slider and the AirPlay button. It also displays the name of the artist and song playing in the middle empty space. A third page is also added with three features namely, a settings app shortcut, a brightness slider and a clear all apps tap button.</p>
<p><a href="http://iosjediblog.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/img_2595.png"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1986" title="IMG_2595" src="http://iosjediblog.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/img_2595.png?w=200&#038;h=300" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a> <a href="http://iosjediblog.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/img_2596.png"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1987" title="IMG_2596" src="http://iosjediblog.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/img_2596.png?w=200&#038;h=300" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>The tweak is made so nice that it does not conflict with Zephyr or other AppSwticher tweaks (I have not tried all of them).</p>
<p>You can check out Switchy in action below:</p>
<p><span class='embed-youtube' style='text-align:center; display: block;'><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='640' height='390' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/lRpu7mYwLLE?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' frameborder='0'></iframe></span><br />
If you are interested in Switchy you can go ahead and purchase it for $1 from Cydia under the BigBoss repo.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Brentcas 這名用戶在知名科技網站 The Verge中探討 iOS 中Multi-tasking 的 App Switcher ，即雙按Home Button 由下而上的程式轉換的捷徑。他自言對UI十分著迷，無意中想到App Switcher 應該兩層高，而非現在的一層高。</p>
<p>既然進入App Switcher頁面，已無法操控原本打開的App，而若要開其他App便需要不段向右掃，當現時的App Switcher每版都只有4個仍在半開啟的狀態，倒不如令App Switcher的空間增加，同時放下8個App，令用家更快按到想按的捷徑。</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://cdn1.sbnation.com/imported_assets/1066034/Apps_20Change_medium.jpg" alt="" width="455" height="387" /></p>
<p>他又建議Spotlight 也可以移到App Switcher 的頁面，而不需要兩步驟的先回到Home Page 再掃到最左的頁面。他亦續一探討其他的功能，如音樂播放的捷徑，和設定中的捷徑，快速開關3G, Wifi, GPS等等。</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://cdn1.sbnation.com/imported_assets/1066476/Pandora_medium.jpg" alt="" width="273" height="512" /><img class="alignnone" src="http://cdn1.sbnation.com/imported_assets/1066371/Black_20Settings_medium.jpg" alt="" width="273" height="512" /></p>
<p>有趣的事，該帖出了以後，有人願意和他合作寫下實體UI的夢想，放在Cydia上讓已Jailbreak的用戶購買，名為Switchy，$1 USD。我想蘋果也不妨參考一下他的設計，且看如何令Multi-tasking 更加可以令人Multi-task。</p>
