Gaming, Linux Desktop Advances For May 2013

With the end of May comes our usual end of the month summary about the most popular Linux news stories this month that appeared on Phoronix and other announcements.
For this month on Phoronix there were 202 news postings (an average of over six original news articles per day) and 13 featured-length articles. These articles were mostly written by your's truly to cover all of the exciting Linux advancements. The number of original multi-page featured articles this month were down slightly namely due to the lack of any noteworthy advertising campaigns this month on Phoronix, but hopefully next month there will be more enticing ad campaigns plus the launch of Intel's Haswell with same-day Linux coverage.

Coming up next week will be
the nine-year birthday of Phoronix.com
and the five year anniversary of the public Phoronix Test Suite 1.0 release. Also coming forward this summer is finally
a new Phoronix site design
. Beginning next week, we're moving the Phoronix infrastructure to new dedicated servers in a different data center than where we typically operate our web presence.
Anyhow, of the 202 news postings and 13 featured articles in May, the most popular open-source / Linux news stories were:
Portal Released For Steam On Linux
Valve's very popular Portal and Portal 2 interactive puzzle video games are now natively available on Linux!
Linux 3.10 Kernel Yields Biggest Changes In Years
The Linux 3.10 kernel is going to be massive with the just-released "-rc1" version being the biggest in the last several years (or perhaps ever), according to Linus Torvalds. This massive change-rate is based at least according to commit count and potentially actual lines too.
Why IBM Now Views LLVM As Being Critical Software
It wasn't until the middle of 2012 that IBM viewed LLVM as being "critical" to support but since then they have decided to fully support LLVM across all IBM server platforms. Last week in Paris at the European LLVM Meeting, one of their developers talked about the tipping point in supporting LLVM on IBM hardware and their current development status.
Ubuntu To Get Its Own Package Format, App Installer
While Ubuntu already has its own software store, Canonical developers are now working on their own application package installer and package format.
Steam Linux Usage Still On The Decline
With Valve's very well known "Steam Hardware Survey", after showing some promising Linux statistics at first, last month indicated that the Linux adoption of the game distribution software was stagnate or on the decline. The April figures for the Steam hardware survey are now public and they indicate further losses for Linux gamers.
Raspberry Pi's Raspbian Improves Its Performance
The Debian-based "Raspbian" Linux distribution for the Raspberry Pi ARM development board is now a heck of a lot faster thanks to recent software improvements.
Linux's "Ondemand" Governor Is No Longer Fit
By default the Linux kernel uses the "ondemand" CPU frequency governor for achieving maximum clock frequency when system load is high and a lower clock frequency when the system is idle. However, it turns out that for at least modern Intel CPUs, this is likely no longer the case. This default kernel choice may lead to poor battery life and performance for modern Linux systems.
Canonical Shows Mir, Unity-Next Running On MacBook Pro
A video has been posted to show off Unity-Next (Unity 8.x) running atop the Mir Display Server in its early development form atop an Apple Retina MacBook Pro with Intel HD graphics.
Meanwhile, the most popular featured articles were:
Eight-Way BSD & Linux OS Comparison
Being benchmarked today at Phoronix is a comparison of eight different BSD and Linux operating systems. The contenders for this performance roundabout include PC-BSD 9.1, DragonFlyBSD 3.4.1, Ubuntu 13.04, Linux Mint 15 RC, CentOS 6.4, Fedora 18, Mageia 3, and openSUSE 12.3. Which of these operating systems are the fastest and slowest for a variety of different workloads? Read on to find out.
Btrfs vs. EXT4 vs. XFS vs. F2FS On Linux 3.10
Building upon our F2FS file-system benchmarks from earlier in this week is a large comparison of four of the leading Linux file-systems at the moment: Btrfs, EXT4, XFS, and F2FS. With the four Linux kernel file-systems, each was benchmarked on the Linux 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10-rc1 kernels. The results from this large file-system comparison when backed by a solid-state drive are now published on Phoronix.
The Cost Of Ubuntu Disk Encryption
It's been a while since last running any Ubuntu Linux disk encryption benchmarks, but thanks to recent encryption improvements within the upstream Linux ecosystem, it's time to deliver some new Linux disk encryption benchmarks. In this article are results comparing Ubuntu 13.04 without any form of disk encryption to using the home directory encryption feature (eCryptfs-based) and full-disk encryption (using LUKS with an encrypted LVM).
GCC 4.8.0 vs. LLVM Clang 3.3 Compiler Performance
In preparation for the upcoming release of LLVM 3.3, here is an extensive round of C/C++ benchmarks from GCC 4.8.0, LLVM Clang 3.2, and LLVM Clang 3.3-rc1 to look at the Linux compiler performance. Benchmarks happened from three different systems bearing Intel Core i7 3960X, AMD FX-8350, and Intel Core i3 3217U processors for a diverse look at the performance.
Intel Linux OpenGL Driver Leading Over Apple OS X
In revisiting the OpenGL graphics and gaming performance for an older Intel Core i5 "Sandy Bridge" Apple system, the Ubuntu 13.04 performance with Intel's open-source graphics driver is now easily surpassing Apple's OpenGL driver found in OS X 10.8.3.

For me making a scrap quilt is a bit of a luxury, but always a favorite. I love the reminder of the past projects all sewn into one beautiful quilt top. My quilt included in the book is a collection of my favorite blocks, colors, and fabrics. My Favorite Things:
Star blocks make up the center, then I have four-patches, triangles, lots of log cabins, and churn dash blocks to finally frame the quilt top.
I happily used bits of fat quarters, and random charm packs that I have collected, along with all … Read More »
The Quilt Planner!
Hi you!
I'm excited to share a brand new tool with you! Last week I leaked a picture on instagram of my Quilt Planner in use, and found a bunch of excited people over there. I've had a hard time not sharing it here!

I'll be back tomorrow with a beautiful quilt, I'm dying to share with you!
Reverse Appliqué Tutorial :: T-Shirt Rehash!
Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week! I have a quick reverse appliqué tutorial for you today, thanks to my Emmalie. Emmalie is a sentimental soul, she latches on to a few special clothes each year and has the hardest time passing them down to the next sister when she out grows them. The green t-shirt below, is one of her very favorites, recently she brought it and the black long sleeve t-shirt to me, asking that I somehow combine them so she can keep wearing her shirt.
Of course I mulled it over for a few days, then decided that reverse appliqué would be ideal, and add a special bit of interest too!
I used my rotary cutter to cut a square out of the shirt, with plenty of room around it. Then took it and some freezer paper to the … Read More »

Introducing :: Think Big!
I've mentioned Think Big on here a few times, but I haven't had a chance to properly introduce you!
I had the pleasure of sharing this book with shop owners last week at Market, and loved explaining all the options that are available in this one book! Since writing Modern Basics, I've had lots of happy emails, usually with pictures attached, of finished quilts from my patterns. I've also had the occasional email, asking for help with recalculating fabric and block requirements to make it a different size than what I had listed in the book. I do help when I can, but it's not always very timely.
When I started writing Think Big, I challenged myself to include details so that the quilter could make any size quilt that they desire. Not because I'm not willing to do the math again, … Read More »

God and guns

I sometimes turn on one of the liberal talk shows just for entertainment. I mean these clowns really are serious about the things they talk about. They also believe the rest of us are as stupid as they are. Of course, they do not know they are stupid and this is what makes watching them so much fun. They remind me of the story of the Grasshopper and the Ant. The liberals are grasshoppers. They want the government to take from the worker ants and divide the spoils among the grasshoppers. Meanwhile, the ants do for themselves while being forced to support the grasshoppers.
Aside from guns and patriotism, I guess the most toxic subject with liberals is Christianity. The liberals think it is alright to talk about any religion or political ideology in a positive light no matter how inane, but the moment one mentions Christianity, the fireworks start. The liberals wet their pants and work themselves into a lather about this subject. I wish they could have been at our high school a few weeks back. They would have had a conniption and an aneurism at the same time. Not only was God and guns on display, but the other touchy subject with liberals, patriotism, was there in full regalia. Gen. Poythress gave a talk and military veterans from as far back as WWII were honored. The Coffee High Drill team gave an impressive display of handling a rifle in drill formation and then, horror of horrors, the blasphemy started.
First, Oscar Street, a retired school principal gave a prayer and had the gall to honor Jesus, gave Him thanks for all good things. If Whoopi, or Letterman, or Olberman, grasshoppers all, had been there, they would have screamed out loud, "How dare you use that name without mentioning Buddha and Osama."
Next came the crème de' la' crème when a large basket of tickets was tumbled and one drawn out. The name on the ticket was announced and the winner got a fine hunting rifle as a prize. If the liberals had not croaked beforehand, they certainly would have at this arrogant display of approval of the Second Amendment to the Constitution. I would like to see them try this in a California school. There would have been mass panic! The liberal talking heads would have been on fire! Someone would have had to be hanged to get the grasshoppers to shut up!
After the meet was over, I looked up at Oscar and told him that I had a good mind to sue him and the whole bunch on behalf of grasshoppers nationwide. "How dare you offend all the liberals with such a crass and overwhelming display of everything that has made us the greatest nation that ever existed?" I said.
Knowing I was being facetious, he laughed out loud while hugging my wife, and with a look of complete confidence said, "Go ahead, Brother. Make my day!"
If to no one else, to thine own self be true. Are you a grasshopper or an ant?

426 Tasting Notes
I have to preface this by saying this is the first Dancong I've ever had, but this tea is now on my adore list. I'm not sure if this is just me discovering I love Dancongs or if this tea is really spectacular in it's genre, regardless I really like it.
It reminds me strongly of a scotch based liquor that my cousin brought back from Scotland. It has these lovely floral notes which I described to myself as lily of the valley touched with gardenia but that may be Magnolia in afterthought balanced by a beautiful apricot cream flavour and whiskey grain alcohol notes including that warm tingling notes that neat scotch always gives me.
Secondary flavours include sandalwood, toasted nut, cotton flower and incense smoke so far. This tea is still going strong after 11 steeps ( though it is more apricot cream right now.
The original leaves were quite dark and smelled slightly of peach, but now they are an olive green with a more floral scent. The first steep at 1 min smelled like cooked peach, woody tones(sandalwood, a hint of stewed rhubarb, honey, cereal, and cream notes. The tea was a pale sepia type tone. The flavour was quite intense at 1 minute. I'll use a shorter steeping time next time.
Looking to further steeps of this tea tonight and can easily see myself restocking this one. Does anyone have any recommendations for other Dancongs?
I love Dancongs! I'll be stocking Mi Lan Xiang (honey orchid fragrance) soon :) Message me for more info on that – I have some at the moment I would set you up with a special order of!
This sounds like an amazing tea. Is it true that the Osmanthus frangrance is a natural occurrence in the Dancong tea? It's not due to a close proximity to an Osmanthus shrub, is it?
Some of the osmanthus dancongs out there are scented ( ie cured with osmanthus flowers etc), but there are varietals in which the fragrance is produced naturally by the tea itself and can be coaxed and highlighted in the finished tea by proper handling and harvesting. The information provided for this tea is that it is a natural occurrence within the leaf. I'm not sure if it was grown near osmanthus, but dancongs are famous for being able to mimic certain flavours.
This was my introduction to Laoshan black teas and I am afraid I was rather spoiled! Not only did it introduce me to buying on aliexpress but it also introduced me to this wonderful seller, who is very enthusiastic about his product, willing to share his knowledge, willing to negotiate to help you buy what you want, and is a caring seller. He tracked my purchase and contacted me when he was worried it was taking too long ( stuck in customs).
The dry tea smells of chocolate and rye bread whereas the wet leaves reminds me of chocolate and raisins.
Brewed western style, the tea brews to a bright copper colour and smells of honey, malt, chocolate, and raisin.
The flavour is of malt, cocoa almost ovaltine and brownies. There is a hint of floral in early sips that disappears, and a hint of honey. It tastes smooth with just a mild hint of astringency. The tea leaves a clean taste in the mouth with the aftertaste of honey and brownies. The second steep is honey, caramel and cocoa with hints of malt. I can get many steeps out of this tea often over six when brewed western style.
When brewed gonfu style the tea is more a pretty amber shade, that is kind of a brown touched gold colour.
With shorter steeps I find that the tea smells of chocolate, brownies, grain, ovaltine, and honey.
The tea feels kind of silky in the mouth with tastes of rich, dark cocoa, ovaltine with honey, and richer notes hinting at molasses and brownies, malted milk. Later steeps bring out tones of caramel, and a touch of vanilla. Honey and cocoa linger in the aftertaste.
This tea is lovely! Rich and deep with notes of malt, cocoa, caramel and honey that work together to remind me of the taste of brownies.
The one I purchased under the black tea category came packed in individual packages that usually allow me three to four different sessions of tea. Which is great as it is easy to travel with and helps to keep the tea fresh. http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/qingdao-laoshan-Black-Tea-flavored-black-tea-organizer/619772_789569691.html.
This tea reminds me of a slightly floral molasses gingerbread, which is odd as ginger is not listed in the ingredients in the description but nevertheless this is what the brewed tea and dried leaf smells like to me.
The first flavour on my tongue reminds me of Chinese five spice powder over a slightly earthy, malty flavour with a hint of citrus. The aftertaste has warm sweet note on roof of mouth and a warm buzzing on the tongue. The tea is quite sweet with fennel like sweet notes that become most apparent after the initial sip. The base is rich and deep and malty. This is a cloves dominant chai, but the coriander, fennel and licorice notes, work well to balance it. The rose and safflower notes are present as secondary notes in the flavour after the five spice note. The safflower adds a slightly fruity freshening note and the rose adds more depth to the flavour. I'm actually surprised at how much I like this as I usually dislike cloves dominated tea, A great tea for fall and the winter holidays.
This really makes a wonderful all day tea as I regularly get somewhere between 7-11 infusions out this tea. Unlike some of my other blacks that re-steep well this one manages to keep a very consistent flavour for the first 4 or 5 infusions a well.
This one has very tightly rolled curly shiny dark brown to black leaves with some golden tips. The dry leaf smells of chocolate, sweet potato and a touch of hay.
Brewing up to a beautiful clear copper orange color the tea feels silky in the mouth like a oolong.
The tea has tastes and aromas of cocoa, blackened roasted sweet potato, plum and longan, cinnamon and at times a savoury note that ranges from rosemary to pepper, and honey and bit of malt. A sweet, cocoa, honeyed sweet potato taste lingers for quite a while. After the first steep the sweet cocoa and longan intensify, before the tea goes through a period where malt and longan dominate with a bit of cocoa and eventually the tea becomes a honey flavoured water. Really nice mellow all day tea.
This tea is sold by several aliexpress dealers. I got it at this one
The farmer has a Taobao shop fom which you can buy direct. I think he has sold out of this specific harvest but this is the most recent one.
These are his other teas
He has a 10-20 Acre farm from which he produces and sells his teas directly.
I agree! For some reason I had it in my head that I had to wait to send everything I wanted to share with you at once, but I seemed to forget that it is possible to scale it to an oversized envelope!
I was craving an oolong this evening but was not in the mood for a full fledged gongfu session, so I decided to try this. This is from Nicole's super generous giveaway. The flavouring is quite nice. It's a nice nutty slightly roasted coconut, that still tastes fresh and sweet. I can see what Nicole means when she said some might find it a little artificial as suspect that the buttery feeling of this pouching has less to do with the actual tea and more to do with the flavouring as it lacks much of the accompanying tingle I usually get from oolongs and the tea tastes thinner than the other pouchong I have at the moment. Despite all that, the tea is quite nice. It has a nutty sweet flavour that blend with a slightly nutty fruity base tea with a little touch of a floral accent quite nicely. So far I am on steep two and I suspect I'll get one or two others out of this tea.
Thanks Nicole! I'll enjoy the rest of this packet.
I have a new box of this, but I still have some of last years left, so this note is on last years tea, I was lucky to get a new box because most of the local shops sold out quickly and i haven't even seen the pink box this year. This is still a great tea, it reminds me of late fall, and early spring forests with that crisp, sour, spicy smell of fallen leaves, mixed with a biscuit tone, bright fruit and malt, with a slight spicy floral note and hints thyme. A really great tea that is more forgiving than most Darjeelings and is perfect on a sunny fall day.
I've quite enjoyed this oolong so far. I usually drink oolong in the evening but this is one that I think would make a great afternoon tea or even a morning tea if you don't need a huge caffeine boost. This tea might make a good introduction to green oolongs for those who enjoy green tea as I found it to be less floral than other oolongs I've had and it has these great snap pea like accents to it's flavour. I also think that it might make a great ice tea, as it has this bright citrus like note to it.
I brewed this tea in a 150ml gaiwan using around 2 tsp of tea.
The dry leaf was tightly rolled and mostly dark spruce green with a little bit of light olive and smelled of citrus oils, green beans, and a sharp floral note.
The first time I brewed it I brewed it for 25s at around 85*C The result was a pretty intensely flavoured bright yellow with a tint of green broth and although I enjoyed this steep very much I could easily have brewed it for about 10s less. I did a 15s steep the second time and found the resulting tea tasted more floral with stronger notes of gardenia while the longer steep was dominated by snap pea and lemon. Altogether I got about 11 steeps from this tea increasing time at about 5 s intervals until the later steeps where I increased the length of steeping.
Early steeps had this bright scent that seemed to be a mix of citrus, buttercups, white orchid and snap peas and gardenia. Later steeps became sweeter and both more floral while being softened by grainy, honey,amber notes.
The flavours I detected at various times through out the session were, lemon notes, snap peas, gardenia, white orchid, honey, vanilla, oatmeal, honeysuckle, aged pine wood, amber, sandalwood, clover, and bittersweet greens.
The tea had a buttery consistency with a little bite of astringency in the earlier steeps and left a tingling on the lips and the roof of the mouth.
Altogether, this tea left me feeling refreshed and alert. Thanks again Little Red Tea Company for providing me with this very generous sample!
I'm currently sipping steep number six of this tea and thinking about how different it is from my other Golden Monkey. While my other one is cocoa, jelly and violets. This one is more like a full meal with savoury notes of roasted sweet potato, butter, pepper, malt, and chestnut (in early steeps) blending with cocoa, honey, plum, cinnamon and longan ( which to me is kind of like a sharper tasting citrus lychee cross). When allowed to steep for longer steeps a slightly floral honeysuckle note comes out as well. In early steeps the sweet potato and cocoa notes are stronger and the tea is sweeter, but as you continue to steep the longan notes become stronger. This tea has tightly rolled leaves with about 30% golden tips which smell of sweet potato, and sweet cocoa, bubbles appear on top of the liquor when you brew it and the liquor is a orangish brown with tints of green. As the wet leaves unroll the long furry hairs are quite apparent on the leaves. I've steeped this tea using both longer steeps and shorter steeps and am enjoying the blend of flavours the shorter steeps bring out. Altogether a nice comforting tea for winter with great warming notes and a variety of flavours. Thanks again to Capital tea Ltd. for providing me with such a generous sample!
I've had two Golden Monkeys over the last two days one was definitely a Fujian and then this one which I believe is from Yunnan though it's origin wasn't marked either at the store or online. I enjoyed both. They both had cocoa and fruity notes but with different characteristics. This one had deep cocoa notes and a sweet fruit note that reminded me of grape jelly and a floral note of violet. Really interesting and quite nice. Later steeps had notes of malt and light leather notes.
On the website this is only sold in their Classic series. I think they might be low on stock of this harvest as the leaves in my loose package were slightly broken but no matter the tea was quite nice.
About 75% of the tea was pale gold tips and buds. The tea had a deep rich scent of cocoa. I chose to do short steeps with this tea and finished at 9 steeps.
20s brew a lightly perfumed red brown broth with cocoa, plum, raisin and an almost violet like floral note that tastes of cocoa, with sweet fruit almost like grape jelly, honey, floral violet, with malt, smells and tastes more like some Yunnan's I've had than a Fujian tea. Brisk, a little astringent.
25s deeper cocoa, honey jam in background violet strong in scent but less present in taste, more malty.
35s grape jelly, violet and cocoa, malt
45s cocoa, violet, jelly and a hint of leather.
55s cocoa, floral note, leather , hint of jelly. less sweet.
85s cocoa, floral, leather note
110 cocoa toned tea, with some sweetness.
3min cocoa
5min cocoa and vitamin c notes.

The celestial aroma oolong also known as Golden Osmanthus, or yellow gold oolong is made from the Huang Dan Cultivar of tea grown in Anxi, Fujian. Harvested earlier than Tie guan yin , It is known to naturally emit an osmanthus like aroma. This is not a scented tea. This particular example tended to reference the peach like end of the osmanthus spectrum rather than the apricot. This tea is kind of interesting as an oolong it has the bite of a green TGY, It is definitely floral, but it's fruit notes are kind of unique to the ones I have tried, It doesn't have the sweet tropical fruit notes I've had in some milk oolongs and doesn't have the spicy cinnamon like notes I get in mid roast TGY. It's kind of a peach orange mix that softens later into apricot.
The dry leaves were a tightly rolled pale olive green to spruce green with a distinctive aroma of orange and peach and 1st cut hay ( more clover less alfalfa).
After a brief rinse I got twelve steeps out of this tea ( I could of made more but the flavour was losing complexity). The steeping times were 30,20,25,30,35,40,50,70,80,90,120 and 180s, brewed at around 80-85*C.
This tea gets some of it's names from the loveley yellow gold of it's liquor which stayed pretty consistant through each steeping.
This tea released flavours of orange, peach and later on apricot, over floral notes including at various points gardenia, honeysuckly and vanilla orchid ( one steep smelled a little like creamsicles) , occassional notes, of artichoke, spinach/green beans, and notes of pachouli and sweetgrass like spice).
The tea produced a cooling feeling on the lips and at the front of the mouth and a warming sensation at the back of the mouth and some of the middle steepings were buttery.
The spent leaves were fairly large, green, and some leaves had faint red edges.
Overall a nice selection when I want a green oolong that is not the sweet creamy fruit of a milk oolong, or as strongly floral as some Dong Dings and TGY.

Not yet a resident, but looking to move in here. I first sent an email inquiry to the apartment and received an expected generic response from a man named Sean. After replying further, I never heard from him again. While I was in the area looking at a few other places, I decided to stop in just in case. The land is beautiful. The lake is cute and has a little bridge. The wildlife is adorable and the maintenance men who were working outside seemed very friendly. When I went into the leasing office, poor Millye Lopez was all by herself today (it is New Years Eve) and was very busy. This did not hinder her politeness or her helpfulness one bit!! She was wonderful! I keep seeing reviews about the horrible management/staff and it makes me wonder. Be sure to ask for her, because she was amazing. The apartments/sidewalk all looked very clean and well-kept. I am very interested in this place and would recommend people to stop-by. Lovely area, right off of the highway, better than some other places I have looked! If I do chose this place, I will write another review after I have actually lived here for a bit to see if it stays this great. So far, no complaints! :)

Pros -Walkability. The complex is very close to several grocery stores, shopping centers and restaurants. -Maintenance. I've had two major issues this past year (air conditioner stopped working, roof leaking), and both were attended to within an hour. -Ample parking. -Reasonably priced. -Apartment staff have been great 95% of the time. I'm typically greeted by name, which given such a large compound demonstrates their commitment to service. Cons -Dale Mabry traffic is a mess in the evening. -Roaches. It hasn't been as bad in the winter months, but during the summer I would consistently find them around the apartment. Due to proximity to ponds and woods, and this being Florida, they make themselves at home. -Windows are thin, so make sure you do not get an apartment by the air conditioning units. I would recommend this area. I am in the process of relocating for work and will post an update once I have gone through ending my lease.

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE! WHAT A NIGHTMARE! I honestly never encounter such discontent paying my own money in an apt complex. Mind you I went to to college for 6 years and live in places I think was not great, but this place is as bad as it comes. 1st: they are NATURE FRIEND = they do not cut their trees down to keep the place neat, so bugs everywhere, I saw BUGS there that you think will only excist in the African jungle. 2nd: they welcomed me there with NO AC in the apt, Maintenance said they just realized that, it will be fix immediatly (believe me - 3 days later, i still have no AC) yeeep, in florida & nothing was taking off my rent. . Mind you I have a full time job, come home at 8pm, & of course they are already close 3rd: shower was not working, so no hot water. for the ENTIRE YEAR - I took more shower in the gym than that place because obviously they could not fix it, nor they will buy a new water heater. 4rth: as I went there with the check list, doing the walk through with maintenace, ecited and ready to move in---i saw roaches running on the counter, and the oven. (maintenance choose to clear that with his hand right in front of me. My 10 speed bike got stolen right in front of my door, and YES it was locked. The assitant manager was only able to inform me there is nothing she can do. They have the most discusting noticed ever, I would come home find notice on my door intended to OTHER TENANTS. when i call them, they will be 'we are sorry' they will leave the notes stated 'MUST BE DONE TODAY BY 5PM' According to Tennants statutes of Florida, you have to provide at leat 24 hrs, but at this place they give people couple hours, so if you have a job....too bad so sad because you'll get charge. I was out of the country they call me, ask me to call them ASAP. I think my apt caught fire or something...but then when i called...they gave me a story about somebody return my key to them - & I was like: WRONG PERSON, MY KEY IS IN MY KEY CHAIN, and that is not AN EMERGENCY WORTH CALLING ME DURING MY FAMILY DINNER ALL THE WAY IN CANADA. don't move there, just don't do it. after all I never fail to pay them not even once, never paid late, but I'm forever happy I'm out of this place.

Besides the 2 people who died, one murdered and one drown in the lake behind the apartments, I left this place 4 years ago. I was never informed by phone call or mail I owed any money for post move-out charges. I went to buy a house which is being delayed now because Countrywood is claiming $960 is owed to them. One charge $630 is for a 2bedroom apartment I lived in BEFORE the most recent 1 bedroom I rented for one year afterwards. How did I owe $630 from my previous apartment and still manage to stay for a year at my new apartment without being told, notified, or just evicted? I called and spoke to a man in the office who says he cant help they have no records of my account and to call collections.. I call collections they have no further information or break down of the bill other than " you owe us $960. Owing money is one thing, having NO idea why you owe the money or an explanation is another. Great job guys!

'The Big C' Postmortem: EP Talks Freedom, Season 4 Plans
Jenny Bicks talks with THR about what Cathy's decision means and expresses optimism that the Laura Linney comedy will land a fourth-season renewal.
[Warning: This story contains spoilers from Sunday's Season 3 finale of The Big C.]
The Big C's Cathy Jamison has gone off the deep end.
During Sunday's Season 3 finale, Laura Linney's Cathy continued to explore her spiritual relationship with a non-English-speaking stranger and, after being stranded on a fishing boat, came to the realization that her family is better off without her.
Following her return to dry land, the unpredictable matriarch of the dysfunctional Jamison family decided the negativity of the world wasn't what she needed now that her tumors have started growing again and swam back to new friend Angel's boat.
PHOTOS: THR's Cover Shoot With the Stars of Showtime
It's a decision, executive producer Jenny Bicks tells The Hollywood Reporter, that comes as she's "at the end of her rope" with her prognosis and family when she realizes that she's created a world for herself in which she no longer wants to live in.
"She's created a world for herself where there was nobody really there for her and that's her fault," Bicks says. "Then she thinks she only has a short period of time left and thinks, 'What am I coming back to?'"
It wouldn't be much after her husband Paul (Oliver Platt) revealed that he knew she created an alter ego named Alexis whose husband died after a heart attack -- and wants to separate since he no longer feels as if he can spend another 40 years with her.
"She experienced something very different on the boat, which was the idea of real freedom and like she could have peace and quiet," Bicks says. "She needed to run and couldn't be in this world anymore, there was so much unhappiness and it didn't make her feel fulfilled and she needed to escape, which is what she felt on the boat, this possibility."
STORY: The Re-Rebirth of Showtime
It's an ending that Bicks expects will divide viewers, with some hating Cathy for making the decision and others looking at it and seeing her realize that she's better off running than putting her family through the negativity -- and a season ender that the writers felt was a appropriate following the year of bargaining.
While the cancer dramedy awaits word on whether or not it will see a fourth season, Bicks notes that the episode wasn't approached as a series finale and that the Big C team has a very clear path for where the show goes from here.
With each season exploring a different stage of grief, a potential fourth season would see Cathy, Paul, Adam (Gabriel Basso), Sean (John Benjamin Hickey) and Andrea (Gabourey Sidibe) address depression.
"The next stage of grief is depression and it leads to acceptance; how we would play with those we have a good sense of but the fourth season would not entirely be depression," Bicks says. "We are going to move through depression fairly quickly. You're not going to necessarily see these things so literally."
PHOTOS: 'The Big C': 20 Never-Before-Seen Photos From Behind the Scenes
Among the early plans, Bicks notes, are to follow through on Andrea's desire to go to fashion school and Adam's faith being tested after his mother runs away from the family when he reveals he wants to live with Paul.
"We would not be happy if this is the ending; I think we owe our audience and ourselves the chance to see this through," she says. "We still have a lot more story to tell."

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2013 annual report for this blog.
Here's an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 16,000 times in 2013. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 6 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
The Mbatha are Nguni people who originate from Mageba the son of Zulu through his grandson Sontshikazi. Mageba was a twin brother to Phunga who became a chief of the Zulu clan. Phunga and Mageba were seperated during infancy because they were twins and it was taboo to the Nguni people of the time for twins to grow up in the same household. Mageba grew up at her martenal home at Nkandla so that he wont be a threat to Phunga who was heir to the Zulu throne.
At Nkandla Mageba fathered Zitha (Phangizitha) who fathered
Sontshikazi. When Sontshikazi was old enough, his father Zitha left him to be head of the family and homestead when he went to be a regent of the Ntombela clan who were his relatives and had no strong leader at the time. Around the same time Mageba was called to be a chief of the Zulu clan as Phunga suddenly died without leaving a male heir. That is where Mageba begat Ndaba for Phunga who is a progenator of the Zulu kings. By that time the house of Mpangazitha was independent from the Zulu and it was taken as different clan altogether.
Sontshikazi became very prosperious and he had many cattle and wives as he was a famous sangoma (diviner). Sontshikazi loved to wear a full buffalo hide like a blanket, and his peoplE followed suit by wearing full cow hide like a blankets. When the neighbouring clans noticed the Sontshikazi people dress code they started to call them 'AMAMBATHA' (those who are always clad in blankets). The name stuck soon Sontshikazi's homestead was referred to as 'emambatheni' it even became more so when Sontshikazi's son Ndaba fathered many sons amongst others Mbeje, Dladla, Shandu, Dumisa, Mngeni and Nsibankulu were all called 'Mbatha' or sons of Emambatheni.
This makes it clear that the surname 'Mbatha' originated from the house of Sontshikazi due to their act of always be clad in blankets it then stuck up to today. It is also clear that there was previously no person named Mbatha although others started to give their sons this name due to its popularity. It was later used as a surname.
Thanks to Sontshikazi's act today this surname 'Mbatha' is owned by millions of people.
In time Mbatha became a clan name on its own with many surnames under it. We can count among others, Mbeje, Dladla, Shandu, Khali, Kweyama, Vezi, Mangcengeza, Manyosi, Makhubalo, Mngunyana, Mathabela, Dumisa, Mngeni and others.
There are supposed to be six chieftaincies of Emambatheni, but there are at present two recognised by the RSA government…Vezunyawo at Nkonjeni Mahlabathini and Ndokozane at Ncome Vryheid/Uitrecht district. Amambatha have their annual heritage day at their main royal house at Nkonjeni Mahlabathini in September every year.

21st Century Fox to Acquire Majority Stake in Yankees Cable Network
YES Network will soon be officially under the 21st Century Fox umbrella. The sports network focused on New York Yankees baseball will soon see Fox acquire a 80 percent stake.
This leaves 20 percent to Yankee Global Enterprises, which previously owned 25 percent, and takes Goldman Sachs and NJ Holdings out of the operation. 21st Century Fox noted in the announcement of the majority stake that network president and CEO Tracy Dolgin will stay on.
"Our investment in the YES Network underscores our commitment to growing our global sports portfolio with offerings that are exceptional and unique," said 21st Century Fox deputy CEO James Murdoch. "We look forward to expanding our partnership with Yankee Global Enterprises and to working with the network's management team to build on the YES Network's success."
21st Century Fox first acquired a 49 percent stake in YES back in 2012, when it was still News Corp. YES will now be a consolidated entity of 21st Century Fox and joins its expanding sports portfolio.
"Clearly, 21st Century Fox is a great partner for us as the YES Network fulfills and expands its potential as one of the nation's premier regional sports networks. We are gratified that 21st Century Fox has increased their stake and investment in the network. Yankee Global Enterprises is eager to continue working with 21st Century Fox as we explore ways to take YES to even greater heights."
Launching Fox Sports 1 in 2013, Fox now has 22 owned-and-operated U.S. regional sports networks. YES, nearly 13 years old, has continued to grow outside of the New York metro area's 9 million households.

text:
Fear is one of the most important problems. Each human being has to go through it and has to come to a certain understanding about it. The ego gives you the fear that one day you may have to die. You go on deceiving yourself that death happens only to others, and in a way you are right: some neighbor dies, some acquaintance dies, some friend dies, your wife dies, your mother dies - it always happens to somebody else, never to you. You can hide behind this fact: maybe you are an exception, you are not going to die. The ego is trying to protect you.
But each time somebody dies, something in you becomes shaky. Each death is a small death to you. Never send somebody to ask for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee. Each death is your death. Even when a dry leaf falls from the tree, it is your death. Hence we go on protecting ourselves.
Somebody is dying and we talk about the immortality of the soul, and the leaf is falling from the tree and we say "Nothing to be worried about. Soon the spring will come and the tree will have another foliage. This is only a change, only the garments are being changed."
People believe in the immortality of the soul not because they know but because they are afraid. The more cowardly a person is, the more is the possibility that he will believe in the immortality of the soul - not that he is religious, he is simply cowardly. The belief in the immortality of the soul has nothing to do with religion. The religious person knows that "I am not," and then whatsoever is left is immortal - but it has nothing to do with "me." This "me" is not immortal, this "I" is not immortal. This "I" is very temporary; it is manufactured by us.
Fear is the shadow of "I," and because the "I" is always alert somewhere deep down that "I will have to disappear in death.." The basic fear is of death; all other fears only reflect the basic one. And the beauty is that death is as nonexistential as ego, and between these two nonexistentials - the ego and death - the bridge is fear.
Fear is very impotent, it has no power. You say, "If it is nonsubstantial, then how does it manage to have such a power over me?" You want to believe in it - that's its power. You are not ready to take a plunge into your inner depth and to face your inner emptiness - that is its power. Otherwise it is impotent, utterly impotent. Nothing is ever born out of fear. Love gives birth, love is creative; fear is impotent.
Mr and Mrs Smith were brought before the bar of justice.
"I would like to divorce this character," said the wife.
"I would like to get rid of this battle ax," screamed the husband.
Judge: "How many children do you have?"
Wife: "Three children."
Judge: "Why don't you stay married one more year and have another child, then you will have four. You can each take two and you will both be satisfied."
Husband: "Yeah, but supposing we have twins?"
Wife: "Ha! Look at my little twin-maker. If I depended on him, I wouldn't have these three either!"

Latest Octavio Dotel Stories
Jake Peavy struck out eight over seven innings Friday and combined with three relievers to bring the Chicago White Sox a 2-0 win over Detroit. The loss by the Tigers, combined with a Minnesota victory over Kansas City, cut Detroit's lead over the Twins to two games in the American League Central. The Tigers and Twins will play four times in Detroit beginning next Monday. Chicago acquired Peavy (8-6) from San Diego in July in hopes he could ignite a late rush to the division title.
A one-out double by A.J.
The Oakland Athletics beat the Chicago White Sox 3-2 Sunday on a walk-off solo home run by Mark Ellis. Ellis, who went 2-for-3 in the game, connected on a two-out fastball off Bobby Jenks (2-4) who had come in to pitch the ninth. Scott Hairston, Nomar Garciaparra and Rajai Davis each had a pair of hits for the A's. Andrew Bailey (5-3) got the win by pitching the top of the ninth in relief of starter Trevor Cahill, who held the Sox to two runs on six hits in six-plus innings. Scott Podsednik...
Bartolo Colon and three relievers combined on a six-hit shutout Saturday and the White Sox offense pummeled Minnesota for an 8-0 Chicago win. Colon (1-0) surrendered three hits in six innings before a mop-up by relievers Octavio Dotel, Matt Thornton and Mike MacDougal. At the plate, Corky Miller and Alexei RamÃrez led the way with two hits and two RBI apiece. One of two hits for Carlos Quentin was a seventh-inning solo homer.

Orioles fall to Tigers 10-6
DETROIT Brian Matusz is in line to break a record held by Roy Halladay - but it's not a very flattering one.
Matusz gave up six runs and seven hits in five innings Sunday in Baltimore's 10-6 loss to the Detroit Tigers. Assuming he doesn't pitch again, he'll finish the year with a 10.69 ERA, a record high for a pitcher with at least 40 innings in a season.
Halladay had a 10.64 ERA for Toronto in 2000, according to STATS, LLC.
"I'm going to have a lot of motivation going into this winter, because I'm never going to forget what this has felt like," Matusz said. "I've got a lot of mistakes to learn from."
Matusz (1-9) allowed a first-inning homer to Miguel Cabrera, who kept the pressure on in his push for the American League batting title. Cabrera left the game with lightheadedness after lining out to left field in the seventh inning. Detroit manager Jim Leyland didn't seem concerned about his slugger.
"He got dizzy," Leyland said. "I just didn't want to take any chances."
Cabrera began the day one point behind Boston's Adrian Gonzalez, but raised his average from .339 to .341.
Brad Penny (11-11) allowed three runs and five hits in 5 1-3 innings for the win.
Matusz went 10-12 last year and was showing promise, but this was only his 12th start of 2011. He had a wart removed from the middle finger of his pitching hand in early March, got hit hard later in spring training and later was struck by a line drive during a simulated game.
Set to start the second game of the regular season, Matusz was instead scratched and put on the disabled list because of a strained rib cage muscle on his left side.
Matusz came off the disabled list and made an impressive season debut on June 1, holding Seattle to one run and four hits in 5 2-3 innings in a no-decision. He won his next start, but hasn't since.
The Orioles sent Matusz to Triple-A in late June. He came back from the minors in mid-August.
"It's a work in progress, but I fully expect him to be a very good option for us next season," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. "Once he gets back the command of the fastball, it is going to open up a lot of things for him."
The Tigers have clinched the AL Central and are now playing largely for playoff position and individual honors. Cabrera hit a two-run shot in the first inning, his 29th home run of the year, and Victor Martinez, Don Kelly and Jhonny Peralta added homers for Detroit.
After Cabrera gave Detroit a 2-0 lead, Delmon Young hit an RBI single in the third to make it 3-0.
Baltimore scored three runs in the fifth to tie it. Pedro Florimon Jr. drove in two of them with a double, his first career hit.
Detroit rallied back. After Cabrera hit a two-out single in the bottom of the inning, Martinez followed with a three-run homer to make it 6-3. Kelly added a three-run shot an inning later.
