Agree, it's a terrible design trend and I cringe when I see it. I'd rather have it to the side than above, but the ideal placement is 'nowhere near'.

Dammit SK, now I have to show this to my wife and let her think she won the debate over the usefulness of this little gadget. ;-)

Jeez, I LOVE Lahore Deli. Oh the delicious food at affordable prices. I worked in SoHo for many years and it was a regular lunchtime haunt - but I never tried the Chai!

I recommend going Eastern NC style on this and using a cider vinegar, beer, and red pepper flakes mixture as your braise. Also leave out the carrots.

When it's all done, make another pot of sauce using cider vinegar, red pepper flakes, and some mustard (a nod to SC-style 'cue) - that's to dress the pulled pork with and it'll blow your mind!

Yeah @SunnyBlue, IKEA ain't for the agoraphobic or OCD. Hasn't changed materially in the past ten years - that's just how it is, and when it's crowded, it's worse.

Love it! We're in Astoria, too - you guys are probably our neighbors, and our kitchens share a lot of similarities!

I don't know a single Android user that hasn't either switched to iPhone, or wants to and is waiting on iPhone 5 and about to switch, except for a couple of programmers/developers and a couple of people locked into Sprint or TMobile for one reason or another.

Good DNS service simply speeds up lookups. It won't affect a streaming site because once it's looked up, the speed is ISP-dependent.

We have been "off the cable" for a year and half now, and as Tarheel fans, feel similarly when NCAA basketball season ramps up. Let's just say that previously, the local sports pubs may have received most of the money the cable company used to get!

That said, there is a new something on the horizon that might just fill the niche. Soon you'll be able to stream content from your iPad or iPod or iPhone to your television via AppleTV!

Do you think this would be enough of a fix to get you back off the cable?

I noticed yesterday that Apple announced availability of letterpress PHOTO cards via the new version of iPhoto.

Perfect blend of low-fi and modern.
