Camera Calibration default setting question

Question

HI I'm using a Canon 5D w/ LR3.3. I want to set the Camera Calibration (in the Develop module) to Adobe Standard and have it set that way all the time. I have looked in Preferences and cant find a way to do this?
Thanks
Mike

 One other question: When I look at the Process drop-down, (right above Profile), it now says '2003'. Before when it said, '2010 Current'. Is that just because Adobe Standard came out in 2003?
The process version has nothing to do with the camera profile selected, Adobe Standard exists for all LR supported cameras, and has so before PV2010.
The process version influences the way the Raw processing pipeline works (pre LR3 vs. LR3). Quote from the manual:
Lightroom 3 uses improved processes
to calculate Detail and Fill Light adjustments. Photos that are
edited for the first time in Lightroom 3 use these new processes.
Photos that were adjusted using a previous version of Lightroom
do not.
To take advantage of the newer processing technology,
however, you can update photos to the current process version.
The process version specifies which version of the Camera Raw sharpening
and noise reduction functions are used to adjust and render photos.
The new process version is Process 2010. The old process version
is Process 2003.
I guess you might have been looking at a newly imported image when you saw 2010, and are looking at an image imported before LR3 when you see 2003.
And should I be using Adobe Standard in the first place? Is it just a personel thing?
It is a personal preference for a starting point to work on your images. I use Adobe Standard for my 5DMkII as well, whereas I use a different one for my 1DsMkII, because I don't like the Adobe Standard there.
