Remove simulated 'pull to refresh' from all views

This animation makes the app feel slow:

• Progress is already redundantly displayed in the status bar.
• It’s highly distracting as you navigate around the app.
• It interferes with where you might want to tap because it ends unexpectedly.
• It’s so in-your-face it almost seems modal, like you can’t do anything while it happens (but you can).
• It makes you pause, which makes you think, which makes you work, which makes you tired.
• Discoverability is fine without it since pulling to refresh now has extremely strong precedent (it’s built into native apps).

Since you're at it, how about switching to UIRefreshControl?
