dumb question? what are "favorites" on the iphone and how do you make an icon for it? When in safari on the web page you want to make a favorite click the + button on the bottom of the screen. It will pull up a menu with a couple options and from there you can add it to your home screen a...

I'm liking the DirecTV app which lets you schedule to record shows on your DVR from your iPhone. I can't tell you how many times I've said to myself, "Self, you need to remember to record the new season of [insert name of random show here]." This way, when I remember it, I can do it right...

Is there a reason why you want to access the Spicecam through Worldview? I simply added the url for the Spicecam site to the favorites on my iPhone and then moved it to an icon so it would be easy to find. Thats what I do now since they dropped it a few months back from the worldview app. Its just ...

I think the biggest issue is not when you rinse your camera in fresh water, but how you treat the seals. We usally leave the beach and sometimes dunk it in the pool or rinse it in a sink somewhere, but other times we don't do it until getting back to the villa. Then we wash it with dishsoap and warm...

There's plenty of blame to go around, and as long as both parties put smearing the other one ahead of fixing the problems, things aren't likely to get better any time soon.
Thats pretty much what yesterday was all about. Bought and paid for by the republicans :roll:

Lucky you saw him before you "went" or flushed...That would just be such a downer. :cry: We had that happen here at home, not it the VI's. My parents were staying with us and my mom went to use the restroom and lifted up the seat to see a quite large tree frog under the rim. Freaked her o...

We had the same flight times last november and rented from Dependable as well. We got in on time, got our checked bags, called up and made it in plenty of time for the 5pm closing. Before leaving though I was concerned about missing them like you so I called ahead. They said if we were leaving on ti...

Does anyone know how to get the STJ spice webcam back on to the worldview app? It was there, but when the camera was swapped it got dropped. I had the free version of worldview and noticed there is a pay version, so I thought I would try it. Obviously its not on either version, but there is a spot o...

I agree with you 100% hugo. I was just stating the wide array of crap they are going to pull up and then dump it somewhere else. Wonder if they are going to sift through it to remove the waste? Any dates being mentioned for the start of the project...other than next month, or is this on island time ...

I read an article that was one of many sites studied. The sites ranged all the way from off Jacksonville, FL to open ocean to near PR and then around STT. Lindbergh was the most economical and sea floor composition matched it the closest. Not agreeing with the "experts" just saying thats w...

I bought one of those Nike short sleeve work out shirts. They are fast drying and are much more plentiful in brands and colors in stores locally. Besides most rash guards are tight fitting and us boys that enjoy our beer those tight fitting ones don't compliment our figure :wink:
