About big_balla's Garage
About me and my passion for cars
It started when I went to see my grandpa for the summer 4 years ago and he had a 1954 Chevy and still has a 1972 Chevelle and we played with that for 2 or 3 summers and he is part of the local car club and us going around helping out his buddies, now my grandpa sold his 1954 Chevy and bought a 1940 Chevy Sedan that we have been working on. But I told him for 2 summers that I wanted to get one of those 4th generation Monte Carlo SS's then last winter I finally got one that needed some work but that is what I wanted so I am getting ready to paint it black primer I would go all the way but I dont have the money. But I would say I got it from my dad but he is in to harleys and I hate motorcycles. So I am proud to say I learn everything from my grandpa.

Prerunner with 2.7, auto and 150k.
The other day the bellhousing basically shattered while driving on the highway. The weight of the transmission then created a "pinch" between the engine and transmission. Bolts that use to hold the bellhousing to the tranny then dug into the torque converter. The flywheel seem to have taken some damage too. Its a very weird thing.
Also, about an hour before this happened; the exhaust pipe broke right in front of the cat. converter.
The truck has had an easy life, a few dirt roads is the worst that has happened to it. It has not been very reliable for me which is disappointing considering their reputation.
I'm confident that I didn't hit anything; the sway bar and steering rack is even right under the bellhousing.
If you have any advice on what may have caused this or if this happened to you. Give me a shout. firstname.lastname@example.com or PM or post.
It may be related so I will say: a U-joint on the driveshaft went bad, at a different time the exhaust pipe broke right under the collector tube(or whatever you call it)

It is a lot closer to 60 than 90.
Yeah, if you follow the recipe there's no way you get 90 IBUs. Mine turned out citrusy and floral with very mild bitterness, probably somewhere in the 50s or 60s.
About to go another round with this brew. Came out phenomenally the first time and I was lucky enough to grab two lbs of Citra from the LHBS! Only weeks away from probably the best beer I've ever brewed!
Sorry if this has already been mentioned in a previous post. In the interest of conserving some citra, has anyone tried this using a neutral bittering hop @60min and moved the FWH to 20min? I think I'll brew this one to the T on my first try, but would be interested in trying it with some magnum down the road and see how that goes.
Where are you guys getting the citra from? Can't find it anywhere.
Just brewed a partial mash version of this. Subbed out the first addition for Magnum. So while not a clone, I'm excited for the extra ounce of Citra I was able to split between 15, 10, and 5 minute additions. Had an OG of 1.072, which Suprises me since this was my first PM. That said I am really happy about keeping my temp constant and am excited to dry hop in a week and half.
Bottled my newest go at this one. It is by far mine and my hop-head friends favorite beer that I make. Need to tinker with my grain bill as my efficiency jumped for the 60's to high 70's just switching to a bazooka tube. This one is coming in hot at around 6.9%

"Dustin got a hold of me a couple of weeks before the season got going, right around the time we were doing our tryouts, and he wanted me to let him know what size shoe the kids needed," Castillo said. Although 2009 was Castillo's first season as head coach of the Wolves, he was an assistant coach while Pedroia played for Woodland. Castillo said he has kept in touch over the years with the Red Sox second baseman.
"It's real gratifying, as a coach, to have your former players come back, especially Dustin, and take care of the kids," Castillo said.
Not long after the Woodland coach told Pedroia the sizes his players needed, a large box arrived. Inside was gray and orange batting gloves and wrist bands from Franklin, one of Pedroia's sponsors. Also included was cleats, undershirts, long-sleeve shirts and T-shirts from New Balance's Dustin Pedroia Collection. He also got turf shoes for the coaches.
The price of the cleats alone is near $100.
"Any time you get a free pair of cleats and some professional batting gloves, these aren't the ones you buy off the shelf, you're pretty happy," Castillo said about his players.
He said once the players found out about the gift they were going to receive, they started asking the coach every day if it had arrived.
"The kids were very happy (when the gear arrived); it was like Christmas all over again," Castillo said.
Noting that not all high schools have an alum like Pedroia, Castillo said the Wolves are lucky to have a three-time All-Star call Woodland his alma mater.
"He doesn't have to do this, but he's showing that he cares for the community," Castillo said.
In the past, Pedroia has also made donations to Woodland Little League and he held a fundraiser for Clark Field.
The Wolves will start their Tri-County Conference season on Tuesday at Clark Field against River Valley. Pedroia and the Red Sox start the season in Detroit on April 5.

Jared Padalecki Fans Raise Money for PETA!
There are a couple of reasons you might know Jared Padalecki. If you're like Patricia over at peta2, you remember him as Dean on Gilmore Girls and love him as Sam on Supernatural (and if you're really like Patricia, you just might have a little crush on him—just sayin'). You might also remember the anti-fur ad he did for peta2. Jared posed with doggies Harley and Sadie to ask his fans, "If you wouldn't wear your dog, please don't wear any fur."
Well, it looks like Jared's fans have done more than just abstain from fur—they've joined him in the fight against it! The fans at SupportSupernatural.com banded together to raise some serious moolah for PETA in Jared's honor—a hefty $1200, if you can believe it!—which will go a long way to help animals.
Big thanks go out to Lindsay and Heather at SupportSupernatural.com—that's some major organizing and some major fundraising, ladies!
Hmm … inspiring, animal-loving cutie who plays a badass demon-fighter? Maybe Patricia is on to something ….

A MAJOR dispute is brewing between the Portland Professional Fishermen's Association (PPFA) and the Port of Portland about access to Fisherman's Wharf.
And it may end up in court.
PPFA secretary Andrew Levings yesterday morning described the Port of Portland as "a big toad that wants everything its own way and just sits there silently".
He said a gate across Barton Place would soon limit access to the wharf.

Splinter Cell Vita?

Can I get a Splinter Cell Vita? I would settle for a port if that's the route they take.

Anyone else interested in a Splinter Cell Vita title? Has there been any rumors of one?

High ceilings with two levels of windows maximize light. This dramatic space is warmed by the wooden wall. I particularly like the use of the clerestory picture window over the bed, which creates a framed picture of nature.
Light, views and natural colors help bring the outdoors into this little bathroom. The clerestory window lets light filter into this private space during the day, but also invites moonlight at night.
Placing clerestory windows above the cabinets in this small kitchen creates a nice display area, accommodates additional storage and allows sunlight to pour in. The break between cabinets and windows maintains a cozy feel while allowing room for the dramatic effect.
Tip: Installing clerestory windows between interior rooms brings more light into a space that may be cut off from the sun.
Tip: Installing clerestory windows between interior rooms brings more light into a space that may be cut off from the sun.
These clerestory windows tie in well with the architecture: The mullions line up with the beams, resulting in a modern look that references the Gothic designs from which it descended. Although separated by a floating storage unit, the windows tie two spaces together, making the whole room feel both intimate and expansive.
A dropped ceiling – which defines the office area but gives presence and importance to the living space – makes the impact of clerestory windows even more dramatic.
If you have a wall that wasn't originally intended to have windows (perhaps there's an unsavory view beyond?), clerestory windows may be the answer to your light-less woes.
Strategically placed built-ins could have resulted in a dark kitchen, but clerestory windows were cleverly installed above this feature wall.
Any space can look and feel like an open, airy loft with the addition of clerestory windows.
Don't get bogged down by the rectangle. Check out this unexpected set of clerestory windows in funky shapes. This bedroom design filters architecturally historic elements through a modern lens.
This hall's generous height is detailed from floor to ceiling; Exposed concrete walls create interest with color and texture while clerestory windows infuse the space with light and warmth, thanks to their wood casings.
An extra-high ceiling adds volume in this family room, while clerestory windows provide extra natural light without compromising the storage/decorative display benefits of the media wall.
The windows in this home were clearly placed to take advantage of views of a nearby mountain. While many clerestory windows are fixed, there are operable options, which promote cross-ventilation.
Rich-toned woods, textures and clerestory windows create a sense of style appropriate to this home's architecture.

Live Nation Global Touring announced today that Sting & Paul Simon, two of music's most renowned and enduring artists, will bring their critically-acclaimed On Stage Together tour to Hope Estate in February 2015.
As long-time friends, the concept for the "On Stage Together" tour originated at the Robin Hood Foundation benefit in 2013 where they performed together for the first time. Both artists, who are known for exploring world rhythms, have pushed the boundaries of popular music and continue to speak to generations of fans.
As exemplified on their North American tour earlier this year, the concerts in Australia and New Zealand will feature two of music's most iconic singer/songwriters blending their voices and their bands while performing their best-known songs both together and apart.

DON'T FORGET THE BACON! I've made this recipe several times but it had been years and I made the same mistake I made once years ago of not putting in the bacon, as that step is not in the recipe, as another person had posted. Additionally, I never add the caraway, and I made them in a muffin tin which took 35 minutes. They were great even without the bacon, which I used in a spinach salad-voila, dinner!
Should have read the reviews first. Next time I will leave out the caraway. As the earlier review said, it adds a strange competing flavor that's not needed.

Our Highest Awards education session are now available online!
Peace First Prize celebrates youth peacemakers. Nominations due by March 30.
Wednesday, January 7, 2015, Nicole Sullivan, Newark Post – With shovels in their hands and helmets on their heads, officials from the Girl Scouts of Chesapeake Bay (GSCB) braved the frigid temperatures Wednesday to make their first mark on what will be their new home for years to come.
After their 25-year residency on the University of Delaware's South Campus, the Girl Scouts were tasked with finding a new location before their lease expires in December 2015. Lynn Williams, Girl Scouts of Chesapeake Bay project manager, visited 84 locations before deciding on the seven-acre lot on Old Baltimore Pike, near Route 273, east of Newark. The organization purchased the land from the estate of the Dianich family. Catherine Dianich Gruver, executor of the estate, felt it was important to sell the property to true stewards of the land, like the Girl Scouts, rather than turn the space into a housing development. "We couldn't think of a better use for it," her son, Zach Gruver, said.

While libraries are facing severe budget cuts, on Thursday in Long Island City, The New York Public library unveiled the latest addition to its staff — a $23 million automated book sorter.
"Our intention was to create the best suite of spaces in America for library preservation laboratories," said Paul LeClerc president of the library.
A 145, 000-square-foot facility on Thomson Avenue houses the division of collections and circulation operations, digital imaging, a manuscripts and an archives processing area and the state of the art book sorter.
"My job was so boring and mundane," said Salvatore Magaddino, the assistant director of logistics at the library. "It was strenuous and sometimes it was difficult to sort all the books by hand."
The machine, which is believed to be the largest of its kind, has made Magaddino's job more exciting and easier. It is designed to reduce a customer's waiting time for a book while allowing staff members to provide better service.
In the past, it took the library months to sort the books by hand. "This LIC branch is the central [sorting] hub. When we had different buildings it was tough to move the materials back and forth," Magaddino said.
Now, the new device sorts up to 7,500 items per hour, doubling the capacity of materials the library can process daily.
The automated system consists of a web of cables that are hidden under a rotating conveyor belt. The 238-foot long machine, sits in a special room with 132 shoot locations. A staff member places each book face down on one side of the belt; the book then passes under a laser scanner, which registers the bar code into the library's central computer database.
The system determines where the book is to be delivered and deposits it into one of the shoots. Library staff then load books into trucks assigned for delivery to various locations. The process is similar to an airport's baggage carousel, but here it is books that are being transported and sorted.
The four-level facility houses 260 staff members. "There are 14 members that operate this machine and it sorts up to 125 books per minute," Magaddino said, reciting the impressive stats of the new behemoth. "Before we did all this by hand."
Three years ago, Magaddino voiced his concerns at a meeting about the problem of recruiting sorters as customer demands for books increased. A manager who was present directed him to a YouTube video of a less impressive smaller sorter in Seattle. Magaddino then pitched the idea and highlighted the need for this technology at the library and eventually, he got his wish.
The sorter operates in a recently renovated basement in a borough in which the NYPL has no libraries. The Queens Library runs independently from the NYPL and sorts all its books in Jamaica.
The total cost for the sorter and rennovations is estimated at around $50 million. According to LeClerc, public and private funding paid for the project. Money was allocated by Mayor Mike Bloomberg and the New York City Council.
"We're committed to making investments in our libraries to help them embrace new technologies," Bloomberg said in a statement. "The art of preserving, storing and showcasing library materials has come a long way in a short time."
Back in the basement, Magaddino no longer has to worry about finding extra hands to help in the sorting process, instead his automated co-worker has reduced his work by at least a day.
"I know that budgets are shrinking everywhere but I am sure this system is going to catch on to other libraries in a matter of time," Magaddino said.

OTTAWA, Ohio — Ohio's Republican U.S. senator wants to hear what's going on with flood control plans in northwest Ohio.
Rob Portman of the Cincinnati area will be Ottawa on Saturday to meet with officials in Putnam County about flood mitigation. Portman, Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown and Republican Rep. Bob Latta have urged the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to accelerate projects related to the flooding.
Among the efforts are redesign work around the Road I-9 Bridge in Ottawa Township and an engineering report on the Blanchard River Flood Risk Management Project.
Portman's office said his meeting Saturday will be at the Putnam County Educational Service Center.

To you idiots trying to break into my website via brute force, good luck. You're all about to get permanently banned by IP subnet.
Stupid script kiddies.
How can something so small have such a large impact on our lives? Panya came to me as a rescue from Craigslist. The owner was going to release her and her cage mate Mocha into the wild if she could not secure a home for them. I took them in and they were my first pair of rats. The owner never gave much information on either of them, other than she didn't know their ages and they had never seen a vet their entire lives. Both were adult females and I estimated them to be around a year old.
I took Panya into the vet because she appeared to have a infection and I wanted to check on her general health. The doctor checked her out and diagnosed her with heart disease and placed her on medication. More than likely she was born with this and should have been taking medication from a young age. After a few days she seemed to be much happier, more energetic and very loving.
Panya became very attached to me. Anytime I was home, she was either sleeping or climbing up my leg and sitting on my shoulder asking for attention or treats. This was very rare behavior for a female rat. It came to be that Panya did not stay in a cage. I let her roam freely through the house and have her freedom. She'd climb up on the bed and nap on my pillow, wander around the apartment or attempt to get attention or food from me when she wanted it.
I do remember one night I had cooked salmon. I never knew a rat could be so quick. Just the smell of it drove little Panya crazy and she climbed up the table and attempted to steal it from me. I gave her a piece and she ate it as if she had never eaten before! Fish became her favorite. Every time after that, if I ever cooked fish, she'd have to be the first to get some.
Sadly, Panya didn't stay with me as long as I'd have liked. Eventually the heart disease took it's toll, and she just couldn't hold on any longer. She passed just before Christmas in December of 2012. Honestly, there is not a day that goes by where I do not think of her and sometimes I get the feeling as if she is still there on my pillow, late at night when the world has gone quiet.
I will always remember Panya and the fact that sometimes is the little things that can mean the very most to us.
So the server this website was on moved data centers and is now going bankrupt. The server crashed and it appears most of the data will be lost. I have since moved to Stable Host, a non EIG hosting company. I've redesigned the site a bit and will attempt to recover any previous postings if I can.
On another note, I've had a web presence for well over 10 years. Honestly in that time, I have failed to do much posting on the website. I should blog more often and add more photos.
Again life has thrown me a curve ball. Some people aren't who we think they are and things happen. I am doing well and really trying hard to not let myself take a step backwards. Once we've cared for someone, do we ever really fully stop? I still think about people from my distant past from time to time and wonder how they are doing.
I hope you are all doing well.

You may have heard that several members of the fabled 1973 team were in town this weekend. Thanks to my pal and artist Jil Gordon, who attended the reception on Saturday, and �73 team member Geoff Steger (Bo�s Wolf–see the Bentley roster), I�m able to share a few details:
Background and Friday
Steger and �73 LG Gary Hainrihar started the planning about a year ago, knowing that this season would mark the 40th anniversary of the famed 1973 squad.
On Friday afternoon they received a tour of Schembechler Hall, the Glick, the new lockers, etc. According to Treger, �It was quite an eye opener for many of the guys who had not seen [the facilities].�
That night many headed to Fraser�s. Treger: �That�s where we hung out when we were students. We probably should have bought that place�we�ve spent so much money there over the years. We�ve been going there back 40 years now and it really hasn�t changed. Although they got rid of the bowling machine�we were kind of disappointed they got rid of that.� [Ed. Urgent-- I need to understand more about this bowling machine!]
Saturday Scrimmage
They attended Saturday�s scrimmage and Hoke invited them down to the field to meet the team afterward. Steger: �Hoke introduced us and talked about the importance of the Michigan tradition. Brady is big on tradition and that�s important to the former players.�
Via Twitter
Then newly named captain Cam Gordon stood up and addressed the 1973 team. Steger: �[Gordon] couldn�t have been nicer or more respectful. He thanked us for being there and talked about how he hoped the current team could carry on the tradition. It was very professional�he really looks like a great kid.�
Then �73 team captain Dave Gallagher got up and spoke. Steger: �He talked about how football is tough work and it�s a lot of great stuff, but he told them that we were were having our 40 year reunion and we�re all family. That it�s all about family and the life-long friendships. He told them to not forget that they�d all be doing this 40 years from now.�
Treger added, �When we have our reunions, no one cares who were the All-Americans or stars�all we care about is the stuff we went through in the locker room, and the dorm, and all the crazy things we did at Fraser�s..stuff like that. And we�re all glad there was no YouTube�we�d of all wound up in jail.� [laughs]
Afterwards all the current players stood up, came over, shook hands with the �73 team and thanked them. Treger told me he was blown away how respectful they were. �Everything was �Yes sir', and �Thank you sir�, and all that. It was everything we were taught by Bo. The current players thanked us for being there and I�m thinking just the opposite, we should be thanking you guys for putting in all the hard work right now. It was kind of cool.�
Saturday Night
That night the team gathered for dinner and drinks at School-Tech, the former company of legendary U-M AD Don Canham, in Ann Arbor. Details:

The only thing worse than being dumped is being dumped for someone else. In Mariah Carey's case, she knows her self-worth so any many who doesn't do the right thing is getting replaced quickly. "Shake it Off" serves as a lesson in what having healthy self-esteem can do for a woman.

I had to share this story, for those who haven't seen it yet. Pretty awesome!
Brenda SACRAMENTO, CA - Four-year-old Michael Ramirez's cat Dottie had a litter of six kittens on Easter. Two of the kittens were born on Saturday night, and the final four were born early Sunday morning. So far, not so unusual. But one of the black and white kitties does have "unusual" markings - a message of love for its mother Dottie, says Michael's stepmom Teauri Ramirez. According to Ramirez, the kitten's side reads, "I Love Dot." "We waited for the fur to dry, and we saw it, and it surely said, 'I love Dot,'" said Ramirez. Michael has all kinds of animals at his house, including snakes and turtles, but this kitten is definitely unique. The Ramirezes are looking for homes for the other five kittens but plan to keep the one with the message. Ramirez says she wants everyone to see this cat. "Somebody has to see this to believe it, and we want to tell everybody," Ramirez said. |

LOL! That's like out of a Believe it or Not book. Little Dottie, Jr. is too precious! Thanks for posting their story. :-) |
I know! It's not even a stretch to see it like, for example, seeing Jesus on a piece of toast or something. LOL The kitty has been christened "Dottie" by little Michael, in honor of her momma. :) Brenda |
That is so amazing! |

HTC ONE or Moto x?
Right now I'm kinda between the attached HTC one or Moto x. I have a upgrade coming up and need to decide between these two.
I value battery life, I want a good to great camera, and lag free performance (or close to it) -
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
Both are great performers, but from what I've read the HTC One has the better camera. There's been a lot of buzz about the Moto X's camera being subpar with folks hoping that a future firmware update will correct the issues. With that in mind, and knowing those are the two devices I'm considering I'd probably lean towards the HTC One.
Have you considered the LG G2 as well?Live long and prosper.
- 09-22-2013, 10:06 AM Thread Author #3
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
You should also think about HTC sense UI vs a purer Android experience in the Moto x. I have read that some are not fans of HTC sense.
Sent from my SGH-I717M using AC Forums mobile app - 09-22-2013, 10:30 AM #5
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
Here's the low-down...if you want the very best of all the options you have listed then the HTC One pushes the Moto X down the drain . The Moto X is more for the user's pleasure with color options etc. I myself would go with the Moto X. I'm a stock Android kind of guy...:thumbup: including the fact that the X is a bit to chunky for me....(my opinion not a fact!!!) Have you considered the very anticipated Nexus 5?
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
i was torn between the two and ended up going with the LG G2. The moto x camera was really bad, and the htc one was nice and all, but some reviews were saying that the power button started to receded down after some time.
- 09-22-2013, 11:22 AM Thread Author #7
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
Here's the thing: I've heard some rather negative things about LG software. How much does it differ from stock android?
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
I will automatically say HTC One, fantastic and solid device inside and out, I have a thing against Motorola after having several of their devices and having no support from them when needing it (they basically tell me to F off, I think they're anti-Canadian) so there's no way I'd go back to Motorola even if they reinvent the wheel.
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
I like LG, they started making some decent devices, however with my LG Optimus LTE it worked 100% fine with Gingerbread but after the ICS OTA update it was problem ridden and I had to send it in twice with no luck, it was acknowledged that the OS was causing problems and LG had no intention in releasing a fix so I swapped for the HTC One and haven't looked back.
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
Go to the store. Try both out. Decide.
Sent from my HTC One - 09-22-2013, 01:20 PM #11
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
I will share my opinion on the two devices
Topic Winner Why
Screen One Higher resolution and it shows
Camera One Clear sharp pictures, Low light performance, Zoe clips are amazing, Highlight videos are unmatched
Sound One Front facing speakers w/ amp are amazing, with/without headphones. surpasses any phone on the market
Battery X? My One is great on battery, lasts all day, charges well, etc. I would only guess the Moto X has better life due to lower res screen/smaller processer
Look/Feel One The build quality, feel, and appearance are amazing on the One. Once you go aluminum, you won't go back. MotoX customize is cool though.
UI One Sense 5 is really good. Moto X has "vanilla" android which is very vanilla i.e. bland. has less features and both run smooth.
Conclusion: I had the choice, I chose the One. I played with both phones and researched like crazy. Your opinion may vary. - 09-22-2013, 01:23 PM #12
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
I have the one also and I do lov it but seeing that mx in the att store makes me want it really bad..
It felt way better to hold and very sturdy feeling also..
Imo the one's speakers are not a big deal at all...
All the videos I have seen comparing the two phones they seem to run at the same speed.. - 09-22-2013, 01:44 PM #13
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
I was pretty much considering the same a month ago: Motorola or HTC One.
In the end, the Moto X won for:
form factor
Motorola radios
battery life
very close to pure Android as opposed to Sense
button layout
Form factor pretty much made the sale for me as soon as I picked up the Moto X for the first time. It simply feels incredible in hand. Not too big, but with a generously-sized screen. In fact, the screen actually feels bigger than it actually is because it takes up so much of the front of the device. The front-facing speakers of the One seem like they'd be nice, but at the end of the day it didn't matter to me because I don't spend enough time viewing videos or listening to music on my phone without headphones. I actually think it's obnoxious as hell when people watch videos or listen to music on their phone in public without headphones. And if I want to watch video on a mobile device, I have a Nexus 7. Some people say that a launcher will fix the problem of Sense, but to me that's not really the case. It will hide Sense, but it will not get rid of it. It's still going to be in the menus and written into the OS. I'd personally prefer a clean version of Android that I can temporarily "modify" via apps than a version of Android that's filled with all sorts of garbage that I have to either hide or root my phone to get rid of. - 09-23-2013, 03:31 AM #15
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
I'm down to these two phones as well. Starting a new job and they give me the choice of phone. Moving onto a company phone contract from a Nexus 4, which will become my happy wife's
From what I've found online, I'm leaning towards the Moto X. I like the smaller size, Motorola is now owned by Google, close-to-stock Android, etc. To me, the difference in display isn't a big deal and I almost never watch videos or listen to music on the phone, so the One's speakers don't mean anything to me. What I've heard about the camera makes me balk, but the claimed battery life is awesome. I use my phone a lot for work out of the office and need that battery life. I can't always charge conveniently during the day. I think I'll try both out in the store and go with my gut, but the Moto X is the favorite before I walk in. - 10-07-2013, 09:06 PM #17
Re: HTC ONE or Moto x?
Both devices are great in their own way.
I came to the X from the ONE, and everything except screen quality and camera is better to me on the X. The build materials on the ONE are better but the build quality on the X is better. The X feels much better in the hand and has better battery life. The X is optimized for the user experience where android generally goes for horse power over ease of use. The x reminds me of an iPhone as far as the smoothness, ease of use, and great battery life, while still having the openness and options of android. As stated the ONE is a great device and I still love it but at the end of the day, the X wins.

HOUSTON, Mar. 14 -- Cano Petroleum Inc. has shut in production of 800 b/d of oil equivalent from Panhandle oil field in the North Texas counties of Hutchinson, Gray, and Carson due to grass fires in the area.
The fires cover more than 1,000 sq miles of prairie and are causing power outages.
"At this time we have no basis to believe that any producing reservoir has been damaged or compromised by the fires," said Jeff Johnson, Cano's chairman and chief executive. The company is evaluating costs and the timing of bringing the production back on line.
Cano acquired leases covering 27,000 acres in the field last November and is working over wells and beginning a waterflood.
On Mar. 14 the company updated its report saying that production of 150 b/d of oil equivalent was unaffected by the fires.
Current projections show that all production from the field will be restored to prefire levels within 30 days at an estimated out-of-pocket cost of $250,000, Cano said.

You have brown rot on the cherry and the beginnings of black knot on the plum. Also looks like some shothole fungus on the plum leaves. About the only thing you can do at this point in time is to prune out the areas of the tree affected by the black knot. The other problems are fungal in nature and likely developed due to overly wet spring weather and mild temperatures. These are problems we see virtually every spring here in the PNW :-)) You can spray to help control but too late now to be very effective. I would recommend removing all the dead/.browned spurs on the cherries as the brown rot can travel into the fruit as well as the leaves and twigs |

COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆō Columbia City High School students will present a whodunit show featuring show-stopping musical numbers and suspenseful entertainment.
ŌĆ£Curtains, The Musical,ŌĆØ is a murder-mystery storyline centering around a cast of characters presenting their stage adaptation of Robin Hood in the Wild West. The show is set to perform April 26 and 27 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $8 and can be purchased from any cast member or at the door.
COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö A local governing board examined variances with its finances in light of a recent audit and is hoping to have found the solution.
As is the case with every governing body, the Whitley County Solid Waste Management District (WCSWMD) was audited by the State Board of Accounts.
WCSWMDŌĆÖs report was released Jan. 31. The board of accounts noted on the audit some faults with the district. However, one of those problems could be the solution.
INDIANAPOLIS ŌĆö Three Churubusco athletes were invited to Warren Central High School to compete with the best the state had to offer, and came away successful.
The Throwers Showcase was held at Warren Central High School, an event featuring the top 20 track athletes, male and female, in the shot put and discus.
ChurubuscoŌĆÖs Austin McClure grabbed a Top-5 placing in both events. He was fourth in the discus and third in the shot put.
His teammate, Gunner Barnhart, was seventh in the shot put.
For the girls, ŌĆśBuscoŌĆÖs Katie Monk was fourth in discus.
COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö Andrea White, of Columbia City, has literally been around the world.
She wants to go back to the other side of the planet, but first, she is going to live in a cardboard box.
In a project called ŌĆ£Hope for the Philippines,ŌĆØ White and a few friends will stay in a cardboard box shelter they will set up on the lawn of Columbia CityŌĆÖs City Hall for 24 hours.
The purpose of the project is to demonstrate the conditions some people are living in at a squatter village in Manila, the capital city of the Philippines.
COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö Columbia City High School Athletic Director Geoff Penrod is the only AD who has seen the Northeast Hoosier Conference from start to finish.
Penrod was involved in the formation of the NHC after the Northeastern Indiana Athletic Conference dissolved. The new conference, NHC, was nearly identical to the NIAC, minus Angola, South Adams and Bluffton.
The NHC took Homestead, DeKalb, East Noble, Bellmont, New Haven and Columbia City from the NIAC and added Carroll and Norwell.
Indian Springs Middle School competed against Edgewood Monday.
Pictured, 8th graders Elizabeth Russell and Jayla Wigent compete in the low hurdles.
Both the 8th grade boys and girls won decisively while both the 7th-grade boys and girls fell to to the visiting team from Warsaw. The Eagle Stars compete in the Garrett Invitational tonight, weather permitting.
COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö A decision was made Thursday that the 24-year-old Northeast Hoosier Conference will be disbanded in 2015.
After continued disparity in the enrollment gap between schools in the conference, NHC President Mark Misch, of Norwell, announced in a press release Thursday that all eight member schools agreed to withdraw from the NHC, effective July 1, 2015.
ŌĆ£Therefore, principals and athletic directors will be focusing on new future conference membership affiliations,ŌĆØ Misch said.
COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö Once more, Columbia City has been named a Tree City USA.
This honor is given to cities across the United States by the Arbor Day Foundation and the National Association of State Foresters. There are four core requirements communities must meet to receive this designation.
Columbia City, in part due to the hard work of its tree board, met these requirements.
Ken Lundquist with the Columbia City Tree Board said receiving the Tree City USA title meant a little more work this past year.
COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö An historic honor was bestowed Thursday night.
For the first time in the history of Leadership Whitley County, a member of the graduating class received the award for Excellence in Servant Leadership. Columbia City Police Chief Tim Longenbaugh was nominated by one of his classmates for this honor, and was given it at the Leadership Whitley County Celebration for the Class of 2012-13.
Park Director Mark Green has closed Morsches Park due to severe flooding. The park and ball fields will remain closed until Monday.
In the meantime, for safety reasons, Green asks that everyone stay out of the park.

Ideal for one large family or perhaps two holidaying together, this recently built detached holiday home is in a safe and attractive cul de sac, within walking distance of all of Solva. It is just a 2 minute stroll to the friendly village pub, The Royal George. From there you can meander down past the small independent shops to the harbour to find more pubs and a choice of places to eat.
Only 10 minutes' drive from the beautiful City of St Davids with its cathedral and Bishop's Palace, Solva itself offers wonderful opportunities for walkers, families (crabbing for the kids!), dog owners, kayakers, sailors, and more.
Within 10 minutes in either direction of Solva you will find beaches waiting for you: paddle, swim, fly a kite, build a sand castle or take a long walk on the Coastal Path. If you want to surf, windsurf or kitesurf for the first time you will find instructors and equipment hire in Newgale and St. Davids.
There are plenty of places to walk your dog: Solva Harbour has no restrictions in place, dogs are allowed on part of Newgale beach throughout the summer, and there is plenty of walking on Solva Airfield (disused) and all the country lanes from the village.
This is our beautiful 4 bedroom detached property in the heart of Solva, with lovely sea views, off road parking for 3 vehicles and a fantastic large enclosed rear garden with a raised area which is particularly well suited to soaking up the sun!
Y Bwlch is beautifully furnished, it is the perfect place to stay when you visit Solva, from the kitchen window you can enjoy sea views whilst you prepare breakfast.

The Pembrokeshire region
Solva is a beautiful coastal village, it's harbour is within walking distance of Maes Y Gwaelod, here you can walk, kayak, sail, fish, eat & drink at either The Cafe on The Quay or The Harbour Inn. Dogs are welcome all year round on this beach.

There are lovely walks in every direction from Solva, whether you prefer the coastal path, the local lanes, the local woodland, we have it all. If you are into your cycling, you've come to a great place for that too, the roads and lanes from Solva offer some wonderful venues for riding, if you want to get the heart pumping there are some good hills too! These can be avoided if prefered.
There are two children's parks in Solva and a Skate Park, there is also the Solva Airfield which is a great place to get the younger ones off their stabilisers and onto 2 wheels! There are 2 football fields as well if you fancy a kick around with a ball and would rather have a day off from the beach.
Solva seems to have it's own mini climate, it seems to get a great deal of sun and less rain than many regions (in my opinion!). There is a lot to get involved with in Solva and St. Davids. On the weekend of May 25th & 26th May there is The Really Wild Food & Countryside Festival in The Bishops Palace, St. Davids, on May 27th there is the Parc Y Capel Fete, an annual event including food, drinks, games, sports races for the children and more.

I am so humbled to be featured by Knock Off Decor today! Please check out this great blog! It is great place to find lots of ways to make designer home decor a little cheaper.
Welcome back to the I Love Rehabs Christmas Advent 2012! Come here every day for 25 days to nab free stuff. Yes, you heard me
right. I am giving stuff away for 25 days!
Today is a free printable for your Christmas Decor. I love Christmas Carols and I thought it would be fun to spotlight the little known verse in some popular Christmas carols. I loved the look of simplicity and color and I think I am going to print these and hang them on my mantle, maybe in a pattern just like this one.
Below are the individual prints. All you have to so is click on the photo, and save the jpeg to your computer. If you have a nice color printer than you can print it off on a US Letter form (8.5 X 11) I don"t like to waste my computer ink on things like this print. It could deplete the ink very quickly. I usually send it to Staples print and copy center. A color copy on cardstock paper is less than a $1. Make sure you select 8.5 X 11 (US Letter Size)

Intel and Microsoft Show DirectX 12 Demo and Benchmark
Subject: General Tech, Graphics Cards, Processors, Mobile, Shows and Expos | August 13, 2014 - 09:55 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: siggraph 2014, Siggraph, microsoft, Intel, DirectX 12, directx 11, DirectX
Along with GDC Europe and Gamescom, Siggraph 2014 is going on in Vancouver, BC. At it, Intel had a DirectX 12 demo at their booth. This scene, containing 50,000 asteroids, each in its own draw call, was developed on both Direct3D 11 and Direct3D 12 code paths and could apparently be switched while the demo is running. Intel claims to have measured both power as well as frame rate.
Variable power to hit a desired frame rate, DX11 and DX12.
The test system is a Surface Pro 3 with an Intel HD 4400 GPU. Doing a bit of digging, this would make it the i5-based Surface Pro 3. Removing another shovel-load of mystery, this would be the Intel Core i5-4300U with two cores, four threads, 1.9 GHz base clock, up-to 2.9 GHz turbo clock, 3MB of cache, and (of course) based on the Haswell architecture.
While not top-of-the-line, it is also not bottom-of-the-barrel. It is a respectable CPU.
Intel's demo on this processor shows a significant power reduction in the CPU, and even a slight decrease in GPU power, for the same target frame rate. If power was not throttled, Intel's demo goes from 19 FPS all the way up to a playable 33 FPS.
Intel will discuss more during a video interview, tomorrow (Thursday) at 5pm EDT.
Maximum power in DirectX 11 mode.
For my contribution to the story, I would like to address the first comment on the MSDN article. It claims that this is just an "ideal scenario" of a scene that is bottlenecked by draw calls. The thing is: that is the point. Sure, a game developer could optimize the scene to (maybe) instance objects together, and so forth, but that is unnecessary work. Why should programmers, or worse, artists, need to spend so much of their time developing art so that it could be batch together into fewer, bigger commands? Would it not be much easier, and all-around better, if the content could be developed as it most naturally comes together?
That, of course, depends on how much performance improvement we will see from DirectX 12, compared to theoretical max efficiency. If pushing two workloads through a DX12 GPU takes about the same time as pushing one, double-sized workload, then it allows developers to, literally, perform whatever solution is most direct.
Maximum power when switching to DirectX 12 mode.
If, on the other hand, pushing two workloads is 1000x slower than pushing a single, double-sized one, but DirectX 11 was 10,000x slower, then it could be less relevant because developers will still need to do their tricks in those situations. The closer it gets, the fewer occasions that strict optimization is necessary.
If there are any DirectX 11 game developers, artists, and producers out there, we would like to hear from you. How much would a (let's say) 90% reduction in draw call latency (which is around what Mantle claims) give you, in terms of fewer required optimizations? Can you afford to solve problems "the naive way" now? Some of the time? Most of the time? Would it still be worth it to do things like object instancing and fewer, larger materials and shaders? How often?
NVIDIA 337.50 Driver and GeForce Experience 2.0 Released
Subject: General Tech, Graphics Cards | April 7, 2014 - 09:01 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: nvidia, geforce experience, directx 11
We knew that NVIDIA had an impending driver update providing DirectX 11 performance improvements. Launched today, 337.50 still claims significant performance increases over the previous 335.23 version. What was a surprise is GeForce Experience 2.0. This version allows both ShadowPlay and GameStream to operate on notebooks. It also allows ShadowPlay to record, and apparently stream to Twitch, your Windows desktop (but not on notebooks). It also enables Battery Boost, discussed previously.
Personally, I find desktop streaming is the headlining feature, although I rarely use laptops (and much less for gaming). This is especially useful for OpenGL, games which run in windowed mode, and if you want to occasionally screencast without paying for Camtasia or tinkering with CamStudio. If I were to make a critique, and of course I will, I would like the option to select which monitor gets recorded. Its current behavior records the primary monitor as far as I can tell.
I should also mention that, in my testing, "shadow recording" is not supported when not recording a fullscreen game. I'm guessing that NVIDIA believes their users would prefer to not record their desktops until manually started and likewise stopped. It seems like it had to have been a conscious decision. It does limit its usefulness in OpenGL or windowed games, however.
This driver also introduces GameStream for devices out of your home discussed in the SHIELD update.
This slide is SLi improvements, driver-to driver, for the GTX 770 and the 780 Ti.
As for the performance boost, NVIDIA claims up to 64% faster performance in configurations with one active GPU and up to 71% faster in SLI. It will obviously vary on a game-by-game and GPU-by-GPU basis. I do not have any benchmarks, besides a few examples provided by NVIDIA, to share. That said, it is a free driver. If you have a GeForce GPU, download it. It does complicate matters if you are deciding between AMD and NVIDIA, however.
ARM is a company that no longer needs much of an introduction. This was not always the case. ARM has certainly made a name for themselves among PC, tablet, and handheld consumers. Their primary source of income is licensing CPU designs as well as their ISA. While names like the Cortex A9 and Cortex A15 are fairly well known, not as many people know about the graphics IP that ARM also licenses. Mali is the product name of the graphics IP, and it encompasses an entire range of features and performance that can be licensed by other 3rd parties.
I was able to get a block of time with Nizar Romdhane, Head of the Mali Ecosystem at ARM. I was able to ask a few questions about Mali, ARM's plans to address the increasingly important mobile graphics market, and how they will compete with competition from Imagination Technologies, Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, and Qualcomm.
We would like to thank Nizar for his time, as well as Phil Hughes in facilitating this interview. Stay tuned as we are expecting to continue this series of interviews with other ARM employees in the near future.
Futuremark Teases 3DMark DirectX 11 With Tech Demo Video
Subject: General Tech | June 21, 2012 - 10:43 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: windows 8, windows, Futuremark, directx 11, benchmarking, 3dmark
Popular benchmarking software developers Futuremark recently posted a video of latest 3DMark tech demo. Premiering in its Windows 8 benchmarking software, the tech demo uses complex volumetric lighting with real time scattering, tessellation, visible particles and clouds of smoke. It also uses fluid dynamics, audio by Pedro Macedo Camacho (who also created the 3DMark 11 soundtrack), ambient occlusion, and post processing. Whew, that's a lot of shiny graphics!
We posted a few screenshots of the tech demo that showed up online a few weeks ago, and now it seems like the company is ready to show it off in video form. The embedded video below shows a mysterious figure walking through a small town nestled in a canyon with smoke, lava, and a flying robot to keep her company. The graphics are very detailed and the particle and fluid physics look really good. It should do a great job of stressing out your graphics cards when it comes out in the latest 3DMark.
Unfortunately, not much is known as far as specific release dates, or even if it will be called 3DMark 12 (or 3DMark for Windows 8). If you are into benchmarking software though, keep your eyes on Futuremark's website as they release more details.

It's time for state minimum wage hike
By Steve Keller/For The Sunday Gazette
Op-ed column
New York's effort, in particular, has been championed by Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, who proposed an increase to $8.50 an hour last year and now wants it at $9, with indexing to inflation. One would think this would be a no-brainer for our progressive state. Sadly, that's not translating into legislative support just yet. ...

Just planted 4 canna's that I got from Lowe's a few ago, and I planted them last week or so. Went out this morning and the tuber? was lying on the ground next to its hole. It looked pretty much intact so I replanted and watered in again. What are its chances?

It was probably a squirrel..i hate those things. If the rhizome looked ok, I'd say the chances are good. |
Armadillos are eating my entire collection. Our dog perks up around 2am, so I went outside to see if I could catch them in the act. I guess those things don't see or hear very well. I walked up to it until I was standing about two feet from it. When it noticed me, it jump in the air and took off. I wasn't sure if they are aggressive, or not, so I jump up as well. |

Armadillos do not hear or see well and are quite afraid of you so no need to fear them. In our garden they love to dig up the mulch to see what is underneath. Last year they tore up the Purple Heart numerous times with their digging. We have lots of earthworms so I expect they are dining on these and the grubs I find. Peggy |

Working Weekends? Are you spending your time wisely?
Posted by Shannon Gburzynski on Mon, Mar 08, 2010 @ 09:23 AM

You have worked your butt off all week and you made it to Friday, now it's time to enjoy the weekend… Isn't It? For many professionals the weekend doesn't equate to 48 hours of pure personal time, it's actually quite clouded with work. If you are a working weekend warrior there are a few things to think about, before spending your Saturday afternoon working instead of relaxing.
Are you using weekend time to make up for slacking off at work, or poor time management? You may think you are the hardest worker in the office because you are one of the only ones doing work on weekends, but if you are one of the only ones this could be a good sign you aren't using your time during the 9-5 work day effectively. Try to become conscious of how much time you spend socializing, or checking non-urgent email. Maybe your spending a little too much time checking your
accounts. Schedule your days out the night before, giving yourself the right amount of time it SHOULD take you to finish a task, then stick to the schedule. You may find you get everything done when you don't allow yourself the distraction of tasks not on your schedule. Who knows maybe you could start enjoying your weekends again?
Does what your working on REALLY have to get done. Weekends are meant to refresh you to make it through another hard working workweek, but if your spending your weekends also working you aren't getting the break you need. Before you fire up your computer or drag yourself into an empty office, ask yourself, "Could this wait till Monday?" If it can wait and get done first thing Monday morning, then wait.
By taking a look at WHY your working weekends, it may lead to a great opportunity to develop your skills to further increase your productivity, business opportunities,and getting your weekend back.
