title: What is the proper way to uncheck a checkbox in jQuery 1.7?
body: <p>I'm upgrading from jQuery 1.5.1 -- I've read about the "new" way to "check" checkboxes (in 1.6) using </p>
  
  <pre><code>prop("checked", true);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But what is the correct/preferred way to remove a checkbox?</p>
  
  <p>Both these methods appear to work</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#someSelector').removeProp("checked");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#someSelector').prop("checked", false);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a distinction between these methods? Which should I be using?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
