You probably don't know the man, the late Douglas Coy Miles, but you likely know his famous designs of the CTR Ring, the Duty to God award, Relief Society pendant, all-church athletic trophies and Articles of Faith wall hangings commemorative fixtures in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Mr. Miles, 91, died July 4, 2008 of congestive heart failure.
He was the principal originator and supplier of the CTR ring, starting in 1970.
His other church service included serving an East Central States LDS mission, 1936-38; teaching seminary at Salt Lake's West High School in the 1940s and 1950s; and later as a guide on Temple Square for several decades.
He was born on Aug. 15, 1916 in Baker City, Ore., to Earl and Verdie Miles, third of four children. He attended Brigham Young University, where he was active in student affairs.
The day after Pearl Harbor he joined the U.S. Navy, and commanded a Martin PBM Mariner flying boat in the Pacific.
He married Blanche Bowen on Jan. 26, 1943, in Corpus Christie, Texas, a marriage later sealed in the Salt Lake Temple.
Mr. Miles earned a law degree from the Utah School of Law, and was an active member of the Utah bar throughout his life.
He was a very gifted salesman and established O.C. Tanner's first national sales force.
In 1955 he joined the L.G. Balfour Co. as national sales manager, and worked with Chevrolet and GM, creating original incentive programs.
A celebration of Coy's life will be held on Friday, July 11, 6-8 p.m., with a memorial service on Saturday. July 12, noon, both at Federal Heights Ward, 1300 Fairfax Road Salt Lake City. Friends may visit family one hour prior to the Saturday service.

Dan Deacon | 03/24/15
Dan Deacon has shared a new music video for "When I Was Done Dying", directed by Adult Swim's Off the Air. The video's an exquisite corpse style of collaborative animation, with one of nine animators, each handling their own thirty second segment of the song. See the full list of credits below or at Off the Air. It marks the first time for both Deacon and Off the Air to work on a music video in this style, but the second time they've collaborated on a music video, following the video for 2012's America's "USA" 22 minute orchestral suite.
All this week at 4am ET/PT, Off the Air will be airing episodes featuring both collaborative music videos alongside work from the animators involved in the "When I Was Done Dying" video. Visit Off the Air's Tumblr all week for interviews with Deacon and the animators. In addition, all this week the album version of "When I Was Done Dying" is available as a free track download on iTunes US. Download it here.
Watch Dan Deacon perform "When I Was Done Dying" (Live on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic) below.
Watch the videos for Gliss Riffer's "Feel the Lightning" and "Learning to Relax."

Petite Noir | 03/11/15
Petite Noir's debut EP The King Of Anxiety is now available to purchase in CD and vinyl formats globally. To commemorate its release, the New York Times has premiered the video for EP standout 'The Fall' HERE, calling the track "a pensive, meditative ode to the inescapable changes wrought by time, with a quietly anthemic refrain and minimalist orchestration that might call the XX to mind."
Directed by Yannick Ilunga (Petite Noir) and Rochelle Nembhard, the video for 'The Fall' explores their relationship, and symbolizes what we all face in our closest of relationships; the challenges which arise in our attempts to lose selfness and achieve unity.
Regarding the video, Ilunga says:
"The video is inspired by the work of Serbian artist Marina Abromovic, and in particular her 'The Artist is Present' performance art piece (MoMA 2010), where she was reunited with her ex-lover, the German artist Ulay, after 22 years apart.
It's intended as a raw and transparent look into what we do to each other in relationships, setting aside the fakeness and pretense that we shroud ourselves in.
When we fall, we fall together."
Petite Noir is currently working on his debut album for release by Domino's sister label, Double Six, later this year.
The King Of Anxiety EP is now available in digital, vinyl, and CD formats from the Dom Mart.
Villagers | 03/10/15
Following on from 'Courage', the heartrending first single from Villagers' forthcoming album Darling Arithmetic, Conor O'Brien is proud to share a second listen from the album, in the form of the soulful 'Hot Scary Summer', which rakes over the break-up of a love affair blighted by "all the pretty young homophobes looking out for a fight". The song premiered earlier today on NPR's All Songs Considered, and can now be heard here.
Darling Arithmetic is the third album from Villagers, set for release on April 14th in the United States. The follow-up to Conor O'Brien's debut, Becoming a Jackal, and its successor, Awayland - both hugely acclaimed and each nominated for The Mercury Music Prize - is a breathtakingly beautiful, intimate album entirely about love and relationships.
Villagers has just announced two NYC shows for later this month, which will kick off an extensive 2 month touring period, also taking in the UK and Europe. The UK tour will culminate in Villagers' biggest London headline show to date at The Barbican on May 1st. Live dates are as follows:

Sam Dust, AKA LA PRIEST, has shared the video for 'Oino, the first track from the artist's new project for Domino.
The video was shot by Dust's brother, director Isaac Eastgate, during the pair's travels recently and was "inspired by a story our grandad told us about a man imprisoned in the desert who escapes by singing to a wizard", according to the artist.
Having previously used the moniker for a 12" release on Erol Alkan's Phantasy label in 2007, 'Oino', Dust's new single, is the first material to surface from the artist since the hiatus of Late Of The Pier, his previous band, in 2009.
Sam Dust spent much of his time after 2010 in Greenland, studying the effects of the Ivittuut region's electro-magnetic phenomena on recorded sound, and producing more than five secret uncredited projects - some of which have already trickled out into the world to public acclaim.
Evoking the disruptive pop spirit of musicians like David Byrne, Prince, Arthur Russell or Aphex Twin, Dust's revived LA PRIEST project once again sets him apart as a true outlying original. 'Oino' marks the beginning of this long over-due re-emergence and is just a glimpse of the gloriously alluring hole in the fabric of the universe he's torn for himself.
Super Furry Animals | 02/27/15
Super Furry Animals return to active service this spring with a deluxe 15th anniversary reissue of their long out-of-print album Mwng and a series of UK shows – their first since 2009.
Originally released in 2000 on the band's own Placid Casual label (between deals with Creation and Sony), the Super Furries career-defining fourth album Mwng was the band's only Welsh language long player. It reached Number 11 in the UK album charts and was their highest selling record globally up to that point. It remains the biggest selling Welsh language album of all time. On its original release, the record was praised in an Early Day Motion in the House of Commons for its significant part in promoting the language and culture of Wales. You can listen to 'Ymaelodi Â'r Ymylon' from the album HERE.
Not only is 2015 the 15th anniversary of Mwng's release, it is also the 20th anniversary of the band's first gigs and the release of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (In Space), the band's first EP.
Mwng will be re-released in the UK on Friday May 1st (International Worker's Day) and on May 5th in North America. The reissue comes in several formats. Deluxe editions (vinyl, CD and download) contain five tracks previously released on the US version of Mwng under the name Mwng Bach as well as a previously unreleased Peel session and a full live show recorded at ATP. The album is available to pre-order from Domino and from iTunes. Pre-orders of the physical album from Domino will receive a download of the standard album immediately.
Super Furry Animals will play their first gigs since December 2009 in the week that Mwng is reissued. The band play:
May 1 - Cardiff University Great Hall
May 2 - Cardiff University Great Hall
May 5 - Glasgow O2 Academy
May 6 - Manchester Albert Hall
May 8 - London O2 Academy Brixton
Tickets go on sale Thursday March 5th at 9am.

Fading Love, the long-awaited debut album from Berlin-based, British-born DJ and producer George FitzGerald, will be out April 28 on Double Six/Domino. The first listen from the album comes in the form of 'Full Circle', available to stream now HERE.
'Full Circle' premiered earlier today on Zane Lowe's Radio 1 show as the Hottest Record In The World, and is also now featured as an NPR 'Songs We Love'. The track, featuring vocals from Boxed In frontman Oli Bayston, is about the unfulfilled promise of stagnant relationships, both romantic and idealistic, and is perfectly suited for both headphones and the club.
Fading Love establishes an exciting new chapter for the acclaimed British producer, DJ, and ManMakeMusic label head, marking an expansion out from his blistering DJ sets across Europe and the UK, and into the realm of songwriter/producer peers such as Caribou, Four Tet, and Jon Hopkins. The two-time Radio 1 resident, and producer of Katy B's 'I Like You', FitzGerald has accomplished a great deal for his 26 years, including tour dates with Disclosure, a recent Jon Hopkins remix (hear his 'Open Eye Signal' remix HERE), and a string of well-received club singles for labels Hotflush and Aus, in addition to his previous two releases on Double Six, "I Can Tell (By The Way You Move)" and "Magnetic".
Fading Love is an intriguingly textured debut album, touching on the more emotive and tactile spectrum of electronic music, while keeping one foot firmly planted on the dance floor.
Fading Love will be available on CD, LP, and digitally. Pre-order the album through Dom Mart HERE and through iTunes HERE. All pre-orders come with an instant grat of 'Full Circle'.

Patrick Watson | 02/24/15
Love Songs For Robots, the highly anticipated fifth record from Patrick Watson, will be released on May 12th via Domino. Love Songs For Robots is the follow up to Watson's 2012 release Adventures In Your Own Backyard, which received widespread critical acclaim— Consequence of Sound calls it "Larger than life," while Q Magazine hails "Sublime," and Uncut adds "Confidently ambitious."
Listen to the title track from the album below now. In addition, Watson just released a teaser for the album, which includes the track 'In Circles,' watch HERE.
The new music was recorded at Capitol Studios in Los Angeles and Pierre Marchand Studio in Montreal. Of the record, some of which was debuted at private concerts in small loft spaces, Watson explains,
"I started thinking about things in a very mechanical way. I found it interesting how we would use our senses to come up with an emotional reaction. As I get older you get to know yourself better and I realized that a lot of my emotional reactions were mechanical responses and that was hugely influential. I didn't want to be a robot. But the reason why we are superior to computers is that we have emotions and I realized that emotions are mechanical so the only thing left between us and robots is curiosity and inspiration - and I don't think you can program that into a computer. That's definitely where I was at when I started writing the record."
Raised and still living in Montreal, Watson has composed 15 scores for both film and television, including a trailer for The Walking Dead and Wim Wenders' new 3D film Everything Will Be Fine, where he performed the songs 'Cynical World' (an original for the film) and 'Lighthouse'. The recipient of Canada's elite Polaris Music Prize in 2007, Watson composes, performs and records his albums with a full band that includes Joe Grass (guitars), Robbie Kuster (drums/percussion) and Mishka Stein (bass).

AndreaCanadaHairCurly HairThe Best Ever!I have naturally curly hair that tends to be unmanageable most of the time. It gets frizzy and tangled...even matted underneath at times. I have been been testing products to tame my hair for the last 15 years.I have been using this conditioner for a little over a year. It never builds up on my hair and never disappoints me.My hair feels like silk.I still can't believe it. THIS IS THE ONE! I have ended my search for the perfect conditioner...yay!! The only negative is the price. I have long hair so i go through alot of conditioner. Price doesn't matter,(It is that good) as long as they don't change the formula I will continue to buy this product.20 out of 20 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

I had 4.4.4 and decided I'd like to try out the L preview
So I downloaded the img from Google and flashed it via fastboot, worked perfectly fine but not as stable in apps as it was on kk.
So, I downloaded the latest factory image from the Google Developer Site, extracted it and ran the flash_all.bat
Seemed to flash ok, no errors, rebooted and started to boot but it only goes as far as the spinning boot logo. No further.
After leaving it a good hour or so I decided it clearly wasn't going to boot I went back into the bootloader and tried to get into stock recovery mode but after rebooting it just stays at the white Google logo..
So, I tried to flash TWRP via fastboot. Again no errors, successful flashed but just like before it sticks at the Google logo and never boots the recovery..
I even tried the "fastboot boot recovery.img" but then it just freezes on the bootloader.
I've also tried the 4.4.3 img.. same happens.
Now if I reflash the L Preview img via fastboot it sticks at the Google logo and didn't even reach the boot logo!
Sounds to me like the partitions have gotten corrupt? Though the imgs are flashing successfully without error so I don't think it's that..
But.. recovery partition is broken as I can't get into recovery at all, and it freezes if I try.
Anyone any idea what could have happened?
All I did was flash the KK factory image over L, just like I flashed L over KK and it worked fine.
All the guides online do the same thing to downgrade L to KK.
Is it bricked? Can it be recovered?
I still have bootloader access with fastboot..
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I'm looking for a grape that grows very contorted, hard wood. Know of any?
All grapes & muscadines will have a contorted trunk/vine when they are over 15- 20 years old from repeated pruning.
A friend just sold a vineyard with a 100's of vine stumps, that they burned for wood.
Some were 3-6 inches in diameter.

As modern Popes have observed, modern society suffers from spiritual obtuseness. Modernity is possessed by the demon of obtuseness. It is one of its basic traits. This is obtuseness is reflected by the fact that as a society--which means most of us on a one-by-one basis--we have lost the sense of sin. The modern Pontiffs would seem to agree: "The restoration of a proper sense of sin is the first way of facing the grave spiritual crisis looming over man today."

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Catholic Online) - In the classic spiritual anthology known as the Philokalia, Evagrius Ponticus, also known as Evagrios the Solitary (345-399 A.D.), writes about the demon of obtuseness or insensitivity. The Greek word he uses is anaisthētē.
We are familiar with the root of that word in our English word aesthete or aesthetic. An aesthetic person--an aesthete--is one who is sensitive to, and appreciative of, beauty--beauty in nature and beauty in art. the aesthete has an acute sense of beauty, of the form of things. Analogously, one can be sensitive to moral, spiritual truths, in which case, in Evagrius's meaning of the term, one would be an aisthētē.
Anaisthētē is the exact opposite of aisthētē. So someone who is an anaisthētē is not a sensitive person. Someone who suffers from anaisthētē in Evagrius's sense of the term is unable to be sensitive to, and appreciative of, the horror of sin or evil. With regard to sin or wickedness, he suffers from a sort of anesthesia which does not allow him to be sensitive to it. In short, he is obtuse. Like someone who is under anesthesia (who has loss the sense of pain), the person under the influence of the demon of anaisthēsis has lost the sense of sin.
Evagrius Ponticus describes what happens to a person who is approached by, and succumbs to, the demon of obtuseness.
First, the soul "departs from its proper state," which is to say, it finds itself in a disordered state relative to God, to nature, and to itself. The soul becomes out of synch with God, and nature, and itself, and so immediately the higher spiritual and intellectual appetites do not govern the lower, animal or sensual appetite.
This immediately leads to a state of enmity with God. For a disordered soul "strips itself of reverence and the fear of God," Evagrius notes.
Once the love of God and the fear of God are lost, the loss of the sense of sin promptly follows. Hence, the person who has fully succumbed to the demon of obtuseness, the anaisthētē, "no longer regards sin as sin, or wickedness as wickedness."
Left to their own devices--"thoughts of self-esteem" in the words of Evagrius--the spiritually obtuse persons, in the words of St. Paul in the first chapter of his epistle to the Romans, are given up to "the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the degrading their bodies among themselves," to "degrading passions," to "a debased mind and to things that should not be done," including "every kind of wickedness, evil, covetousness, malice, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, craftiness, they are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, rebellious toward parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless." They become, in a word, moderns.
In his apostolic exhortation Reconciliatio et Paenitentia, Blessed John Paul II describes this spiritual obtuseness or loss of the sense of sin as the loss of "a fine sensitivity and an acute perception of the seeds of death contained in sin, as well as a sensitivity and an acuteness of perception for identifying them in the thousand guises under which sin shows itself." (RP, No. 18)
The loss of the sense of sin shows itself in concrete behavior, all of it arising from a repudiation of any sense or notion of the objective moral law, a conscience that is governed by such law, or of a final judgment. An obtuse soul "looks on judgment and the eternal punishment of hell as mere words," Evagrius says.
We might add that some modern theologians, surely under the spell of this demon of obtuseness, tell us similarly that Hell is a story, a myth, a pedagogical device, but not by any means a place where souls may find themselves to be eternally damned.
The person who has fallen prey to the demon of obtuseness does not necessarily become an overt atheist (though he certainly may), but he is a practical one for sure. He acts, in the words of the jurist Grotius, etiamsi daremus non esse Deum, daringly, audaciously, irresponsibly, as if God did not exist.
His belief in God becomes nominal. For example, he can say "God bless America" or "God bless Planned Parenthood" without religious scruple while America aborts babies by the millions and thinking this a wonderful thing even a human right, since God really means nothing. God is just a mere word. Evagrius Pontus says that "while supposedly confessing God," the obtuse soul possessed by the demon of obtuseness "has no understanding of His commandments." Belief in God means nothing in practice.
As modern Popes have noticed, modern society suffers from spiritual obtuseness. Modernity is possessed by the Evagrian demon of obtuseness. It is one of its basic traits. This is obtuseness is reflected by the fact that as a society--which means most of us on a one-by-one basis--we have lost the sense of sin.
In his 1946 Radio Message to the United States Catechetical Congress, Pope Pius XII observed that the "sin of the century is the loss of the sense of sin," to wit, we confront obtuse souls under the thrall of the demon of obtuseness.
And since Pius XII, the problem has gotten worse. Much worse.
The spiritual notion we find in Evagrius Ponticus and in Pius XII appears in the messages of Blessed John Paul II and in Pope Benedict XVI.
Among other places, Pope John Paul II stressed the loss of the sense of sin in his apostolic exhortation Reconciliatio et Paenitentia. He attributed this loss to several causal factors: growing secularism and a concomitant moral relativism, erroneous theories in human sciences such as psychology or sociology, an improper education or formation of youth, and the constant barrage of the media which is hostile to traditional values. Ultimately, however, he saw the cause as fundamentally spiritual: a denial of God. (RP, No. 18)
Pope Benedict XVI reiterated that truth. He very clearly saw the loss of the sense of God as a spiritual problem. In his poetic words during his Angelus reflections on March 13, 2011, he said: "If God is eliminated from the world's horizon, one cannot speak of sin. As when the sun is hidden, shadows disappear. Shadows only appear if the sun is out; hence the eclipse of God necessarily entails the eclipse of sin. Therefore the sense of sin--which is something different from the "sense of guilt" as psychology understands it--is acquired by rediscovering the sense of God."
Both recent Pontiffs would agree: "The restoration of a proper sense of sin is the first way of facing the grave spiritual crisis looming over man today."
John Paul II in fact insisted that "the sense of sin can only be restored through a clear reminder of the unchangeable principles of reason and faith which the moral teaching of the church has always upheld." (RP, No. 18)
But the problem, as the Church has learned during the pontificates of John Paul II and Benedict XVI, is not that easy. We've talked about the "New Evangelization" for some time now, but the spiritual malaise seems to persist--at least in the West. In fact, it seems to have gotten worse.
People in the West--in particular in the United States and in Europe, the areas of the world with which I have some familiarity--have become progressively more spiritually obtuse and so do not take to spiritual truths very well, in particular the Gospel. The demon of obtuseness--having once taken root in a person and in society--is notoriously difficult to exorcise.
Evagrius Ponticus spoke about the intrinsic problems that arise when confronting persons who have lost the sense of sin. As a result of their obtuseness, they are naturally postured to reject the Gospel message. Their obtuseness makes them relatively impervious to the Gospel, however presented.
If one speaks of a final judgment or of a hell, the spiritually obtuse person will ridicule the message. The spiritual obtuse person--like the demon by which he is possessed--"looks on judgment and the eternal punishment of hell as mere words," he "laughs at the fire which causes the earth to tremble," says Evagrius.
Words of warning--from simple suggestions to earnest impetrations to thundering jeremiads--are of no avail. "You may beat your breast as such a soul draws near to sin, but it takes no notice," Evagrius observes.
The obtuse soul is immune to the words of Scripture or the "principles of faith" John Paul II mentioned: "You recite from Holy Writ," Evagrius says, "yet it is wholly indifferent and will not hear."
Invoking the natural moral law, the law that governs conscience, or traditional values--the "principles of reason" referred to by John Paul II--similarly has no effect. "You point out its shame and disgrace among men," Evagrius points out, but "it ignores you, like a pig that closes its eyes and charges through a fence."
But what about Pope Francis? Where does he stand?
Interestingly, despite the insistence of his predecessors that regaining the loss of the sense of sin is a central part of the New Evangelization, nowhere--at least in haec verba--does Pope Francis mention it in his recent apostolic exhortation, Evangelii Gaudium. While he does mention it as one of a number of "cultural challenges" (No. 64), it does not seem to have the centrality in his thought that it did with his predecessors. What's up with that?
Although it is difficult to know exactly what Pope Francis is thinking, he may--like Evagrius--realize that the demon of obtuseness cannot be cajoled out--exorcised--through means befitting people who are spiritually sensitive. As chief pastor of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis may believe that something else ought to be tried.
In a closing comment, Evagrius notes that the demon of obtuseness is one of those kinds of demons "that seldom approach brethren living in a community." Rather, it is found more prevalently in "solitaries," which is to say in individualistic hermits. This insight by Evagrius many centuries ago may afford us some insight into Pope Francis departure--in praxis, but not in doctrine--from his immediate predecessors.

I have been working with Firehouse Shelter for many years now. It is an impressive organization that serves more homeless persons than any other facility in the state of Alabama. It keeps adminsitrative costs low while still providing the services necessary to assist people back on their feet and into permanent housing. It is a continuum of care facility providing extensive emergency, transitional and permanent housing, supportive services, Safe Haven, a soup kitchen, case management, etc. I am very proud to have been witness to this organization's inception. It needs a new campus, and I hope that we can eventually get the support of the business, church and governmental communties to make that happen.

Skyrocket Juniper Help
I have had a skyrocket juniper for about 3 years. I love the way it looks. This last spring, I checked on it and it looked like someone jumped on it! I think it was wind and heavy snow. How do I make it look good again? Here are some pics. Just copy and paste in your browser to go to both links.
Here is a link that might be useful:
Its hard to tell if the entire tree is leaning as if the roots didn't hold or if it starts to lean further up. If the entire tree is leaning from the ground up I guess I'd be a little concerned about the root system. Three years should have been enough to anchor the plant. Your ornamental grass (miscanthus sinensis?) does not seem too adversely affected and my miscanthus sinensis strictus is pretty beat up by now. That leads me to think the condition may be more from snow load than wind. Where in zone 5 are you and which direction does this side of the house face. Did you have a heavy wet snowfall after the ground thawed? And also, do you recall the process used when the tree was planted (was it B&B or in a pot, rootbound, hole depth & width etc, etc). Just need a bit more info in order to help.
what direction is it from the building....??? ... junipers love full sun ...
and i agree it was snow or ice damage ....
but to be very blunt .. it has totally outgrown its spot ... IF IT WERE ME .... i would buy a duplicate ... they aren't that expensive.. and i would be done with the monster ... its too big and too close to the building.. it seems to want to grow out to the light.. and the building is probably complicating the snow issue .. a tree that size should be at least 5 to 10 feet from the building ... technically .. foundation plantings are supposed to hide the foundation .. not be planted on the foundation ...
there are plants better suited to being so close to a structure.. a dwarf would grow slower and remain smaller over time ...
i don't really see how you are going to be able to save it .. i used to tie my similar conifers up, so as to make them tighter in winter ... and then decided i didn't need the exercise .. and one of these winters i will be removing a lot of them ...
good luck
Here is another picture. As you can see, I needed something tall and skinny against the bare side of my tall house. The Miscanthus sinensis 'Zebrinus' has never been a problem. This is the first time I have noticed the tree being 'crooked'. I have checked and it's not becoming uprooted. I think it is leaning further up. I am in Northwest Indiana and the tree is facing northeast. I'm sure it gets some wind, but we did have a heavy wet snowfall around the first of April. The tree was planted from a pot and was about 5-6 ft. tall. It is now 10-12 ft. tall. I love the heigth of it against the house. Should I prune it? I don't think I could tie it up because it's so tall. If I did get rid of it, what else could I plant there that would give me the same effect?
Thanks to everyone for their help!
Here is a link that might be useful:
Yes, I think part of the problem is that the tree has already been growing for some time out from the wall seeking more light. As such it has become vulnerable to wind and snow. If you are determined to keep it there you will probably have to anchor it to the house; screwing hooks into the siding is not to be done lightly or without sealing, but that is one option. At least you could maybe tie the floppy branches in to the trunk.
An alternative plant might be a columnar or upright growing yew, but I suspect light-seeking will always be a feature of what you grow there. You have some scope for a more textured and varied planting there with a deeper bed, I think, but if you like the regimental formal look (and I do in some settings) then just replacing the juniper might be your best bet. Actually though, why not try pruning it and tying it in a bit first, and see if it can work for a few more years?

A Bendix drive is a type of engagement mechanism used in starter motors of internal combustion engines. The device allows the pinion gear of the starter motor to engage or disengage the flywheel of the engine automatically when the starter is powered or when the engine fires, respectively. It is named after its inventor, Vincent Hugo Bendix.
The Bendix system places the starter drive pinion on a helical drive spring. When the starter motor begins turning, the inertia of the drive pinion assembly causes it to wind the spring forcing the length of the spring to change and engage with the ring gear. When the engine starts, backdrive from the ring gear causes the drive pinion to exceed the rotative speed of the starter, at which point the drive pinion is forced back and out of mesh with the ring gear.
Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of engineering, physics and materials science for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. It is the branch of engineering that involves the production and usage of heat and mechanical power for the design, production, and operation of machines and tools. It is one of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines.
The engineering field requires an understanding of core concepts including mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics, materials science, structural analysis, and electricity. Mechanical engineers use these core principles along with tools like computer-aided engineering, and product lifecycle management to design and analyze manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and machinery, heating and cooling systems, transport systems, aircraft, watercraft, robotics, medical devices, weapons, and others.

A Tiny Dachshund Puppy Rides Around a Big Grocery Store in a Tiny Shopping Cart
A tiny long-haired dachshund puppy named Knox the Dox rides around a big grocery store in a tiny shopping cart that's being pushed by his normal-sized human because, as Knox says, "Sometimes I push the cart and sometimes I get to ride!"
My servants carry me in my throne wherever I want them to go. And yes, my throne is a tiny shopping cart that holds all the toys I desire. I do what I want.
Sometimes, however, it's up to Knox to take over.

James Bond Seeks to Uncover a Closely Guarded Secret in the First Teaser Trailer for 'SPECTRE'

Two Bright Pink Chickens Rescued on the Waterfront in Portland, Oregon

Yesterday, two bright pink chickens were spotted wandering on the waterfront in Portland, Oregon. After Portland-area news organization KATU reported the runaway animals, an officer from Multnomah County Animal Services promptly picked up the chickens and brought them to the animal shelter for safe keeping.
Workers at the shelter say that food coloring is often used to dye chicks, an effect that lasts until the animal's first molting. The practice of dyeing the animals is physically harmless to chicks, but some animal welfare groups frown upon it as it may discourage pet owners from seeing dyed chickens at Easter as a pet that requires a home and care for years.
North Portland resident Bruce Whitman came forward Friday afternoon to retrieve his two pet chickens, claiming that he purposefully abandoned his chickens—whose feathers he dyed with Kool-Aid, beet juice, and food dye—to elicit a response from the public.

Memorial Ash Beads, Heartfelt Handcrafted Jewelry Made From the Cremated Remains of Deceased Loved Ones
Artist Merry Coor has created a line of heartfelt handmade jewelry crafted from the cremated ashes of loved ones. Coor creates the beads one at a time from her own studio in Eureka, California and accepts long-distance requests. She also does her best to understand who the person was by learning as much as she can with whatever materials the requestor provides.
If you decide to have me create an ash bead, I will send you a padded, pre-paid envelope, along with instructions and a small tin where you will place the ashes. Send me about ½ teaspoon of ashes for each bead and any photo, letter, or story about your loved one. When your bead is complete, you will receive within 2 to 4 weeks, the bead or beads you requested and any photos and information you may have sent me. The bead will be finished with your choice of an 18 inch sterling silver or gold filled chain, and clasps. Bead caps and head pins finish the bead into a pendant. If you wish, you may send a photo of your loved one, the music that they like to listen to, and even a story about them. I will listen to their music, and look at their photo, and put good intentions, and energy, and heart into their bead.
Memorial ash beads are available either through Coor's site or through her Etsy store.

Lacuna, A Public Art Installation and Free Library Made From 50,000 Books
Lacuna is a public temple to books that is made from 50,000 books itself. The 80-foot diameter art installation acts as a free library by encouraging observers to participate by browsing and choosing free books that have been generously donated by the Internet Archive. Its design is from the Flux Foundation, a non-profit large-scale public art organization. A crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter is running now to fund building materials and permits for the project's completion.
Lacuna is scheduled to be on display and available to visit free of admission at the inaugural Bay Area Book Festival at Martin Luther King, Jr. Civic Center Park in Berkeley, California on June 6 and 7, 2015.
Unlike a library, the very walls of Lacuna are created from books, which means that when people remove a book from a shelf, the structure will change and morph as new gaps in the book brickwork are exposed. This is where the magic of Lacuna happens: Lacuna becomes a reflection of the community who interacts with it. It becomes a story told by the many individuals who step inside it and are swept away by the wonder of the written word.
