    Thanks for answering my question. Well push e-mail has been available on the iphone for some time now, through Yahoo! and MS Exchange, but Push Gmail didn't and apparently still doesn't work without a workaround. Other things you might want to remove from the feature list are themes, video recording and unified inbox. You can put them on your next wishlist though, unless Apple implements them in the final version, which I doubt…

Colon cancer is one of the leading causes of death. Irrespective of family history, everyone is exposed to the risk. About 90% of colon cancer cases begin from non-cancerous tumors, polyps, which could form in the large bowel. Screening with a colonoscopy will painlessly remove any polyps hence almost entirely reducing your risk of developing the horrible disease. The good news is that about 90% of colon cancer cases are preventable through a simple (yes, simple) colonoscopy.
