Thanks for the answer AJ, but I am looking for an Apple approved app. – Alexander Mar 20 '12 at 22:31 |
Understood. It is possible, but based on my searching only if you have a jailbroken phone. Perhaps they'll add this feature to iOS at some point in the future. – AJ. Mar 20 '12 at 22:40 |

Lilith (; lilit, or lilith) is a character in Jewish mythology, developed earliest in the Babylonian Talmud, who is generally thought to be related to a class of female demons Līlīṯu in Mesopotamian texts. However, Lowell K. Handy (1997) notes, "Very little information has been found relating to the Akkadian and Babylo... |

Lilith (Hebrew) [from layil night] In popular Jewish legend a female demon, commonly but erroneously supposed to be nocturnal, counterpart of the Babylo-Assyrian Lilit or Lilu.

"The numberless traditions about Satyrs are no fables, but represent an extinct race of animal men.

Project Mercury sent the first American to outer space in 1961. |
Photo courtesy NASA |
Imagine: The United States is technologically behind in a race with its adversary, the Soviet Union, to explore the new territory of outer space. You have been chosen from a pool of 110 qualified pilots to be one of seven men to go into outer space. You have trained long hours, both physically and mentally, for this mi... |
This was the situation on May 5, 1961, when astronaut Alan B. Shepard, Jr. stepped into his Freedom 7 capsule and became the first American to go into outer space. Freedom 7 was the first flight of Project Mercury, America's premiere space program. |
If you did not live through this time, it may be difficult to understand the significance of this program and these men. America was in the midst of the Cold War with the Soviet Union (Russians), and the two countries were racing for dominance of outer space. The Soviets were the first to launch a satellite into outer ... |
In this edition of How Stuff Works, we will relive history as we look at Project Mercury -- the spacecraft, the missions and the people who made it all possible. |
How long and how fast should your long runs be? |
The main purpose of long runs is to spend time on your feet Credit: Allsport UK/Allsport |
How long should a long run be? Time is a better gauge than distance. |
That is, the goal of a long run is not to cover a certain distance, but to spend time on your feet. |
• Run for at least 1 1/2 to two hours. That's the minimum long run roughly 10 to 16 miles to maintain a high endurance level. |
• Increase your long runs by no more than 15 minutes at a time. Any more and you're setting yourself up for injury or illness. |
• For marathoners, 26 is better than 20. Exercise physiologist David Martin, Ph.D., says one 26-miler is better than several 20-milers: "Milers run miles in practice, 10K runners run 10Ks, so why shouldn't marathoners cover their distance in practice, too?" |
Adds 1972 10,000-meter Olympian Jeff Galloway: "Long runs of 26 miles train the body to do what is required of it during the event." However, both Galloway and Martin advise building up to 26 miles gradually over a period of months. |
How fast? There are reasons for easing back on the throttle during your 20-milers, and they agree with common sense: |
• Long runs at race pace may be workouts in your mind, but they're races for your body. That's a lethal mix that can easily lead to overtraining, injury or illness. "Running long runs too fast causes more problems than any other training mistake," Galloway says. |
• Fast long runs miss the point. "Long runs are endurance workouts, not speed workouts," says Steve Jones, former world record holder in the marathon. "You get speed from other workouts during the week." |
Adds Galloway: "Training is like putting together a top-of-the-line stereo system. Long runs are the endurance component. Speed is a separate component entirely." |
• The ideal pace for long runs is at least one minute per mile slower than your marathon pace. Preferably, it's 1:30 to 2:30 slower a pace at which you can carry on a conversation (not one in monosyllables, either). |
Remember: The goal of the long run is time spent on your feet. |

Making a Hemp Bracelet |
Step 3: Tying the Square Knot |
Hemp bracelets are made from one main type of knot (which is really two simple knots) called a square knot. It is composed of a Left Square Knot (LSK) and a Right Square Knot (RSK) |
Tying them is fairly simple, but it takes practice and thinking at first, until it becomes almost second-nature. |
The LOPOPILTE system!! Leader-Over Partner-Over Partner-In-Loop Tie-End |
Step 1: Follow a lead |
Pick one of the long strings on the outside to be your leading string. Don't forget which string you picked or else you'll get very confused!! One way of remembering is to tie a knot or attach a bead at the end of it - that way, you can find your leading string quickly and easily. |
If the short strings aren't on the inside and the long ones on the outside, now would be an ideal time to move them so they are. |
Step 2 : Leader over the middle |
Take the lead and cross it over the two middle strands. Refer to the second picture to see how if you must. |
Step 3 : Partner over leader |
Take the partner strand (the other long one that isn't the leading strand) and place it over top of the leading strand. The third picture shows this. |
Step 4 : Partner in loop toward leader |
Put the partner in the loop made by the leading strand in step 2. The hemp will probably make a loop because it's long and won't all go through in one tug. Just keep pulling it through. Picture 4. |
Step 5 : Tying the knot |
Completing the knot is simple. Hold the far end with the loop and the middle strands tight and straight by tugging a little on both ends. This is easily done if you have the loop attached to something or held between you middle finger and ring finger. Then, pull on both of the outside strands. Pictures 5 and 6. |
Depending on the side you started with, you just made either a left square knot or a right square knot!! In the pictures, I made a right square knot, which means to make a full square knot I would have to now do a left square knot. The leading strand is on the left side. Scary, huh? Do a couple more and you should end ... |

Wow. This has helped me SO much. At first I was a little confused, as your fourth picture looked a little confusing, but after I played with it a little I understood. Thank you! |
