DIY Garage...
I've been living in apartments for the last three years in San Diego with all of my tools in storage about an hour and a half away with nowhere to work on my car, truck, or bike. I served five years in the U.S. Army as an Airborne Military Policeman. During that time I was single, living on post, and able to use the on-post Auto Hobby Shop to work on my stuff. It was awesome. Now that I'm back in the real world, there just isn't a place like this available to me within a reasonable distance. I'm sure I'm not the only one in my area that wants to do my own work on my vehicles to save a buck, but lives in a place that won't allow it or simply doesn't have the space for it plus tools.
I want to open up a full-service shop that sells parts, and rents out tools and work bays. Please have a look... CLICK HERE!!
Does anybody have any suggestions as to what type of products, specialty tools, or services should be offered at a DIY Garage like this? Obviously I want it to be attractive to bike, car, and truck enthusiasts alike. I would employ a full-time master mechanic who could offer classes on basics of welding, metal fab, service and maintenance stuff, etc. What kinds of things would you like to see at a DIY Garage like this?
Any and all input/discussion would be appreciated!
I know this idea isn't NEW NEW, but it is still a great idea. Here in Tucson a place that specializes in Jeeps and ADV bikes would do well, I think.
Yeah, I'm actually surprised there isn't already an abundance of these shops around. You should start one up, too :D
What's it like pulling over airplanes and helicopters? Or we're you like the airborne highway patrol guy flying the planes looking for speeders in afghan or Iraq?
Seems like a lot of liability to open a shop where anyone who doesn't normally work on their own stuff can chop their fingers off or drop a car on their head. I bet insurance would be crazy high, especially in California. It's a good idea, but the red tape....... Maybe a motorcycle club or car club has places like that for members to work on their things. Ever watch the devils ride? They had a shop with a bar!! But it wasn't run like a business.
Also, you can look at business parks with a garage and loft style living. Some are artsy fartsy, but worth looking at.
theres a place in SF that does this. its all moto, and i have heard great things. you might contact them and see what advice they have is.
i think its a great idea. but i know from experience, that running a shop there are TONS of red tape and permits and bullshit, which is why i no longer run a shop.
Sounds like a big fat lawsuit waiting to happen to me.
It's hard enough to keep out of hot water when you lock clients OUT of the garage. Now they will be under their cars on your property... using your tools... under the guidence of your master tech. Seems they can screw you from EVERY angle when the jack slips and their leg gets cut off.
Sounds like a fun idea... just make sure you spend some time with a good lawyer to review your business plan before investing. CYA !
Yeah, the liability issue is huge, that's the main concern. Thanks for the tips! I'm trying to find as many shops that are already doing this to see what they do to get around the issues. There are handfuls of them out there, just few and far between.
Sounds like a good idea to me. I used the auto craft shops on lots of different posts, and it was great having all that stuff available.
I think the key is doing what those places do: they make you take a test before you can ever use the place, and the user signs a waiver. The test covered use of certain pieces of equipment, safety, and rules of the facility, if I remember correctly. The waiver protected the shop from liability.
But that was on a military base, where everyone has free health care and liability is less of a concern.
I have noticed this place driving through St George, Utah recently. Know nothing else, except looked it up:
You might want to contact them and see what info they can give you. Looks like it is an old car lot.
Something like a DIY shop do exist. They are called Hacker Spaces. Most don't deal directly with automotive work or have the specially tools, but some have garages and will let you wrench on anything.
I think it's a great idea and would go over well here. Ill sign up to be a franchise when you work out the bugs. :)
Just helping friends out one of the issues you'll have is etiquette whey bubba has just stripped the threads on his oil pan . . . What do you do with his 1979 power wagon to get it off the lift and freed up? ;). (Guess you'll want to carry oversized self tapping drain plus. :) )
Good luck!!
These DIY shops used to be really popular in the 70s and 80s. Especially on military bases. But most/all of them closed down. Before I would undertake a business venture like this, I would do my research and really understand why they went away. I've been told insurance became outrageous and cost prohibitive. But I don't know that for a fact. Unfortunately, nowadays I could see how an insurance company could be leery of insuring a company that loans lifts, power tools and welders to the untrained general public.
You also might want to look into non-profit club versus a for profit corporation because there might be better options. See if you can get ahold of the guys at Spannerland near NYC, they have been having success for years. I think they are more club based though. Anyway, one of the founders of Spannerland, Mr. Cosentino is an inmate on this site. Good luck!
PS. I'd prefer a machine shop more than a garage. If I had metal lathe, mill or a table plasma cutter I could upload my Pro/E drawings to that and have brackets made up for my bike projects! That would be huge!
PPS. Check out The Crucible in Oakland, CA. A fellow inmate turned me on to that place. Really cool machine shop and metal art fabrication facility. They have metal fabrication tools available for use by student members.
this place is local to me, my buddy rented a spot once for the two post lift. it was a flat $20 per hr and they had all the basic tools, and some specialty tools.
i dont know the particulars, but they used to have three locations, now only one.
check out the site, might glean some info.
Thanks everyone for all of the suggestions and insight. A lot of things to consider.

Originally written on Fox Sports South | Last updated 11/28/12
ATLANTA Hawks point guard Jeff Teague may slither elusively to the basket, but coach Larry Drew used an unusual metaphor to describe his player nonetheless. Hes the head of the snake for us, Drew said. When hes going well, chances are, we are, too. The Hawks Al Horford might have been the NBAs Player of the Week, but Teague arguably is playing the best basketball of his career. It has translated into a league-best six-game winning streak entering Wednesdays game with Charlotte. Teague posted 28 assists in the past three games. For the second and third time in the short 13 games of the season Teague recorded at least 11 assists last week. At 7.1 per game, he has cracked the top 10 in the league in that category. While it cant be said that his performance represents a quantum leap over his past production, Teagues assists are up 2.2 per game over his average from last season. How does Teague explain it? Well, he doesnt really. Hes too humble. Just playing, he said. Its an opportunity...

1/2 teaspoon
butter, or as needed
1 tablespoon
olive oil
1/4 teaspoon
ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon
smoked paprika
1/8 teaspoon
cayenne pepper
shallot, minced
2 cups
cannellini (white kidney) beans, rinsed and drained

2 tablespoons
dry sherry
1 teaspoon
soy sauce
1 tablespoon
melted butter
salt to taste
2 tablespoons
chopped fresh parsley, or as desired
1 pinch
paprika, or as desired
I assumed buttering the serving bowl would release the pate, making a nice presentation. It didn't, but I can live with that. This just didn't have much flavor at all, and the texture was way too firm, dry and hard to spread. IMO it just tasted like mashed and chilled white beans which needed more liquid. Sorry, I hate to give bad reviews, but this just didn't work for us. I followed the recipe to the T, and I'll admit it could be just a personal taste preference.

What Larry mentions is different from what I just described. There are adj screws for column play too, though you shouldn't overtighten them
and create friction. But the long graduated rectangular piece running vertically on the lower column can sometimes develop sloppiness too if
the basic attachment screws are loose - which is an easy fix just by tightening them. You should try to get ahold of a basic maint manual for
the machine.

The Netgear Powerline 1200 kit is the affordable answer to those needing a reliable, fast and convenient solution to extend their wired home network.
The top routers that support the new 802.11ac standard on the market. Since there are not many of them, all of those on this list are the best of their kind.
Netgear's Arlo is your answer to un-tethered indoor and outdoor DIY home security -- just make sure you have spare batteries handy.
The Zing is a robust and capable mobile cellular router, but make sure you're happy with Sprint's 4G LTE coverage first before getting it.
Available direct from Sprint.
The lack of Gigabit Ethernet in many ways cancels out the Netgear R6100's support for the fast 802.11ac standard and makes it just an average Wi-Fi router.
The Netgear X6100's awkward design and frustrating performance make it suitable only for casual networking tasks.
Despite its powerful hardware, the R7500 doesn't have the performance and features to justify its premium price tag.
The Netgear Neo TV NTV300 is one of the cheapest streaming boxes on the market, but it doesn't offer any compelling distinguishing features compared with the Roku.
Even when it's working well, the Netgear R8000 Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Gigabit Wireless Router has nothing to justify its expensive price tag.
The Netgear Centria is a good buy for those who are looking for an all-in-one router/storage combo or who want to replace a Time Capsule.
The Netgear R6300 WiFi Router is for a high-standards, low-ego type of user: it's not something you can show off aesthetically, but it's a powerhouse for a robust, fast home network, both for now and tomorrow.

Per angusta ad augusta.
I'm a busy dual-degree graduate student who is looking to meet new people outside of my circle of colleagues. I'm a West Coast native, and moved to the Boston area for graduate school in 2012 after living in the southeast for 5 years. I did my undergraduate at a large school on the West Coast, so college football Saturday is one of my favorite days. I like people who like to laugh, and who have a keen sense for thinly veiled sarcasm. I don't embarrass easily (if at all), so public situations can get a little interesting. I can carry a conversation if I have to, but prefer it when it's a two-way conversation. Finding things out about people is fun, because everyone has an interesting story about life (including me). I've traveled all over the world, but not for leisure... if we get to know each other better, then maybe I'll tell you why. I'm training for the Seattle Marathon, so ibuprofen is a constant companion. I also do a lot of weight lifting, so... ibuprofen. Netflix benders... who doesn't love them? Arrested Development, Lost, Fringe, Sons of Anarchy, The X-Files... they're all on there. Better start catching up. If Netflix has sucked me in, I'll usually take a 2 hour break at some point to go work out. Besides that, I strive to make puns... they're an underrated art form. When I'm running, I check my heart rate monitor more frequently than what would be considered normal. I really like stuff that Apple makes, but I'm not a hipster about it. I probably drink too much coffee. Moldy fruit creeps me out. Apparently I'm also the only one here who doesn't have any pics of me cliff diving somewhere in Spain. Not a single photo exists of me making "duck face." Also, insert ubiquitous comment about friends and family here.

The holidays are stamped for love in Christmas, Florida. While keeping her eye open for her next job lead, will nomadic event planner Stella find romance instead?

Will retired police officer Rick Stanton be able to steal postmistress Edie Hathaway's heart?
Author Bio
PAIGE WINSHIP DOOLY is the author of over a dozen books and novellas. She enjoys living in the coastal Deep South with her family, after having grown up in the sometimes extremely cold Midwest. She is happily married to her high school sweetheart and loves their life of adventure in a full house with six homeschooled children and two dogs.
Award-winning author and speaker Darlene Franklin recently returned to cowboy country—Oklahoma. The move was prompted by her desire to be close to her son's family; her daughter Jolene has preceded her into glory. Darlene loves music, needlework, reading and reality TV. Talia, a Lynx point Siamese cat, proudly claims Darlene as her person. Darlene has published several titles with Barbour Publishing.
Kathleen E. Kovach and her husband Jim raised two sons while living the nomadic lifestyle for over twenty years in the Air Force. She's a grandmother, though much too young for that. Now firmly planted in Colorado, she's a member of American Christian Fiction Writers, and leads a local writers group. Kathleen hopes her readers will giggle through her books while learning the spiritual truths God has placed there.

Rose McCauleyKYAge: 55-65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Great Christmas ReadDecember 18, 2013Rose McCauleyKYAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5I love Christmas books and read them the whole month of December. This is one of the best I have read this year. As one of Barbour's Romancing America line, it follows the typical format of 4 novellas in one book with many connections in each book such as the post office in Christmas, Florida and many of the characters. The characters have varied occupations (event planner, building contractor, teacher, retired major, store clerk, photographer, retired police officer and postmaster) and ages ranging from 20s to 60s, so there is something for all interests here.
All of the stories are excellent. Several scenes made me cry, especially in the final story where the hero keeps trying to woo his love interest after repeated rejections because it reminded me of how Christ woes each of us to Himself. If you love Christmas and Christmas stories, this is a must read! Available in paperback and kindle.

Astros icons Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell will continue in their roles as part-time members of the team's front-office staff, according to new owner Jim Crane. Since Biggio and Bagwell retired as players, they have been employees of the club under personal-services agreements (Bagwell also served as team's hitting coach in the second half of the 2010 season). They serve in a wide variety of areas including player evaluation and instruction, as well as ambassadors for the team. With their contracts set to expire at the end of February, Crane ended any questions about their future, saying he plans to continue the arrangement with the two greatest players in the history of the franchise: "I want them both around. When you look at the number of games played, those two guys' names stand out. We'd be foolish not to have them involved if they want to be here." In addition, Crane may, in time, add another familiar name to the mix: Roger Clemens. Clemens pitched for the club from 2004-...

Twilight Author Stephenie Meyer Shows Off Dramatic Weight Loss
Forget Team Edward and Team Jacob — we're all about Team Stephenie!
The author of the Twilight series, 39-year-old Stephenie Meyer, showed up on the red carpet for the premiere of The Host, a rom-sci-fi film based on her 2008 novel, looking gorgeous and slimmed down. Apparently, coming up with a new film franchise does a body good!
The mom of three hasn't said how she lost the weight, but however it happened, the brunette beauty looks amahhhh-zing!
Following the success of Twilight, Stephenie has made the leap from vampires to aliens. Her latest film, The Host, is about an alien who takes over a girl named Melanie's soul, but — here's the plot twist — Mel's still in love with a human! Oh yeah, the boy she likes is super hot, of course.
"I'm always telling myself stories, and a lot of them are not really a full book. But this one, I was immediately like, 'Wait a minute, this could really turn into something. I need to write this down," she told K-CAL. Based on her storytelling track record, we think it's safe to say that aliens are the new vamps.

"We loved this New Year's Card! Each year we send out a Tiny Prints card and we have always received compliments on how beautiful it looks. This year was no exception. Plus, we placed our order very late and we appreciate your quick production and delivery!"
"I ordered these New Year cards for my photography business. I couldn't have asked for better quality and they arrived faster than I expected. Will definitely order again in the future."
"This is a beautiful card. The paper is good quality (a thick card stock), the design is really cute, and they arrived within a few days. I also had a great experience using the designer--it really gave me peace of mind to have someone proofread and tell me it looked OK on their end. I am incredibly happy with these. Just beware: these are pretty pricey, and they cost more to mail because of the square shape (70 cents a piece!)."
"I love this design for holiday cards. We used it for 2014-2015 and the product turned out perfectly. The design is darling. I love that the words from a little Christmas tree. Also the photo sizes are perfect. Other designs were too big or oddly shaped."
"Most beautiful holiday cards we've ever sent out. Using the super express shipping went great---they really did arrive in 2 days (AMAZING!). Only complaint is that the print on some of the cards was very light (ink must've been running out), but it was too late to request a correction or get anything done about it. Paper quality was great--thick and study, photos printed beautifully. Overall, VERY pleased and would absolutely use TinyPrints again."

A_1: Each bus component of the CoreConnect architecture is optimized to achieve specific design goals for an on-chip bus architecture. The prime goal of PLB is to provide a high-bandwidth, low-latency connection between bus agents that are the main producers and consumers of the bus transaction traffic. The prime goal of OPB is to provide for a flexible connection path to peripherals and memory of various bus widths and transaction timing requirements while providing minimal performance impact to the PLB bus. The DCR (Device Control Register) Bus is a mechanism for removing device configuration slave loads, memory address resource use and configuration transaction traffic from the main system busses. Most traffic on the DCR bus occurs during the system initialization period, however, some elements such as the DMA controller and interrupt controller cores use the DCR bus to access normal functional registers used during operation.
A_2: As with other architectures, implementations of an architecture can be created that do not invoke all aspects of that architecture. For example, it is acceptable for a PLB master or slave to not generate / respond to all PLB transaction types. The PowerPC 405 CPU core does not generate PLB burst transactions. It uses PLB line transactions for blocks (cache lines) of data.
A_3: Each major version release of the PLB architecture represents a set of architectural enhancements most of which are oriented towards increasing levels of performance.
A_4: Yes, the OPB architecture specification was enhanced in OPB version 2.X to provide support for 64-bit addresses and a 64-bit data bus. It also added support for byte enables to be used as an alternative to dynamic bus sizing for smaller (than the data bus width) transactions.
A_5: CoreConnect was optimized for on-chip interconnection as opposed to board / system interconnections. Key differences include:
A_6: IBM World Wide Design Centers have a growing family of PowerPC and CoreConnect based System-on-Chip reference designs that represent a starting point for the functional architecture of a large number of ASIC designs. The first available reference design is the 405 PBD (platform based design). It is composed of a PowerPC 405 core and the 64-bit implementation of CoreConnect PLB. A new design point is in progress based on the PowerPC 440 core and the 128-bit version of CoreConnect PLB. The reference designs are available to IBM ASIC and CSSP customers through Design Center representatives.
A_7: CoreConnect licenses are available at no cost to businesses and academic institutions on request through the IBM PowerPC Applications group at email@example.com. Requests will be responded to with an email form to collect the necessary company / institution data.
A_8: There are restrictions. First, the PLB bus arbiter must be as large as the widest agent on the bus. Next, the various masters and slaves must be designed to support transaction to other size elements. This adds a level of complexity to the master that must support transactions with a smaller slave in that the master must perform extra "conversion" cycles to communicate with the smaller slave. For example, a 128-bit master must perform a regular cycle plus three conversion cycles to access a 32-bit slave. This effectively provides for some level of dynamic bus sizing. The advantage is that legacy cores may be used on a newer version of the PLB in some cases. A disadvantage of this scenario would be a case where a significant amount of the traffic on the 128-bit PLB was communication with a 32-bit master or slave. In this case, 75% of the data bandwidth would be wasted.
A_9: The PLB architecture allows up to 16 masters on a PLB bus complex instantiation. PLB arbiter cores to date have typically provided for support of up to eight masters on a single bus segment. Newer cross-bar arbiter cores will provide for up to 12 masters on a two-way cross-bar. In typical applications, putting more than eight masters on a single segment bus would tend to lead to bus saturation and extended latency times with typical bus traffic patterns.
A_10: With the existing PLB arbiters, there is not a logical limit to the number of "non-pipelining" slaves, however, slaves that support address pipelining are limited to eight. Electrical loading on the bus must also be considered. Excessive loading will require rebuffering logic to be inserted and this will lower the achievable bus clock speed.
A_11: The existing arbiter supports four masters on an OPB segment. Most chip implementations to date have used one or two master slots. For applications requiring many OPB masters, the straightforward option is to have multiple OPB segments instantiated on the chip.
A_12: There is no logical limit tot he number of OPB slave on a bus segment. The main limit would be due to electrical loading. Bus speed could be traded off for an increase in the number of loads. Multiple OPB segments could also be used to mitigate the loading problem.
A_13: The DCR bus has no arbiter and is designed for a single master. Normally this is a PowerPC 4XX CPU core. Access to the DCR bus is provided through a separate software mechanism from memory space loads and stores in the PowerPC programming model.
A_14: The address request-acknowledge path through the bus architecture is the longest path. In order to run the bus at higher clock rates and meet the synchronous bus timings, it was necessary to add clock cycles to the transaction address phase. The data phase of the transaaction is still implemented with single clock cycle timing. For burst and line transactions that have multiple beats (data acknowledges), the impact of a multi-cycle address phase is not as significant. Also, address pipelining, commonly used in PLB implementations, effectively hides the multi-cycle address phase for normal traffic mix scenarios.
A_15: For write transactions, the master is providing the data at the beginning of the cycle and the data is typically posted in a slaves write buffer. This will normally allow a slave sufficient time to return the data acknowledge at the same time that the address acknowledge is returned. For read transactions, the slave needs sufficient time to obtain the data from some device and buffer it before returning it to the master with the data acknowledge. The two cycle latency to the first data acknowledge allows for this access time without degrading the bus clock speed.
A_16: The attributes have no meaning within the CoreConnect architecture itself. They only represent information that is carried along with the address and qualifiers during the address phase of the transaction. The meaning of the attributes may have significance to the masters and slaves on PLB. Some of the attribute lines have a "recommended" usage as documented in the PLB architecture specification. These definitions come from common usage in PowerPC and CoreConnect based chips.
A_17: While the PLB architecture has significant flexibility with respect to transaction protocol, not all allowable options make sense to use. An extreme example of this would be to have a 128-bit PLB data bus carrying a significant amount of "byte burst" traffic. During the byte bursts, over 93% of the bus bandwidth capability is wasted. This is certainly not an efficient use of chip resources.
A_18: The CoreConnect toolkits provide a very powerful set of functions for designing and verifying elements of a system-on-chip implementation:
A_19: CoreConnect toolkits are an integral part of the CoreConnect license package. The toolkits provide support for PLB, OPB and the DCR Bus. Each toolkit contains:
A_20: Bus Functional Language is a simple command language that is part of the CoreConnect toolkits and works with the behavioral master and slave models. BFL commands are written to configure the models and generate transaction traffic for the bus testbench. The BFL files are translated to a simulator specific command file by the Bus Functional Compiler (BFC), a utility program provided with the toolkits.
A_21: No, the Bus Functional Compiler (BFC) is expecting the wait command to have a level parameter followed by and integer range 0 to 31. BFL code that is not compliant with the syntax rules will be flagged as an error during compile process.
A_22: The command "mem_check" may provide what you want to do; see section 6.4.5 of PLB Tool kit User's Manual.
A_23: The mem_init command only allows an address and data; see section 6.3.2 of PLB Tool kit User's Manual. The BFC will produce an error message if you express the command as indicated.
A_24: The ".bfl_off" and ".bfl_on" constructs are not mentioned in the user's manuals. These constructs allow the user to mask commands, parameters, etc., that are not BFL code from the Bus Functional Compiler (BFC). The .bfl_off and .bfl_on constructs have limited use (described below) and are considered unsupported constructs at this time. However, they are useful, for example, in working with Verilog. If a BFL programmer needed to include some Verilog compiler directives or system tasks in compiled .v files, he could use the constructs in BFL code as follows:
`timescale 1ns/1ns
`define m0
`define m0_MASTER_SIZE 2'b01
The BFC will ignore any text between the .bfl_on and .bfl_off constructs during compile time but will include that text in the final .v file. The location of these constructs in the BFL code is critical because its location will show up in the compiled .v file.
A_25: The PLB monitor is developed based on the PLB architectural specification. The developers have attempted to include as many protocol checks as possible which reflect the PLB architecture requirements. The intent is to have complete protocol coverage. The existing documented list of checks is located in the PLB tool kit user's manual, chapter eight, title "PLB Compliance Checks".
A_26: Fixed length burst transfers are a variant of variable length burst transfers. The master burst and slave burst terminate signaling is used just as with the variable length burst, but the length of the burst requested by the master is communicated to the slave via the byte enable signals. The purpose of the fixed length transfer is to give the slave a "hint" of when the transfer will end so that it can assert read/write complete signals sooner. This minimizes the number of read data bus dead cycles between transfers so it helps maximize bus utilization.
A_27: Yes, either a master or a slave can terminate the burst early, although a master would not normally do this.
A_28: Both types are block oriented transfers. Line transfers are primarily used to move cache lines of data and instructions. The key characteristics of line transfers are that they support a very limited number of block sizes and the blocks are naturally aligned in the address space. PLB line read transfers support "target word first" mode which means that data items may not be transferred in a linear address sequence. In line transfers, all byte lanes of the PLB segment are used in the transfer. For example, in a 64-bit PLB segment, a 32-byte line transfer takes four data beats while on a 128-bit PLB segment, it takes two data beats.
Burst transfers are used to move variable sized blocks of data in a linear address sequence. Depending on the burst transfer type, some or all of the data byte lanes are used on the PLB segment; it is possible to burst single bytes of data on a 128-bit PLB segment, but this is not recommended from a bandwidth utilization perspective. The number of data beats in the transfer is arbitrary. The only alignment requirement relates to the address alignment of a single transfer item (byte, word, etc.).
A_29: In the interest of bus architecture flexibility and efficient bus utilization, several "special" DMA transfer types were defined. Some of these involved data movement confined to a single PLB slave segment (such as a peripheral device and memory block attached to the same bus controller which appears as a single PLB slave). Since the data buffering is confined to the bus controller, the data does not appear on the PLB. In addition, since on device is a DMA peripheral, it does not have an associated address. So, whereas a normal memory to memory transfer performed by a PLB master (such as the DMA controller or a CPU) would involve read and write transaction with both address and data phases, the previously described transfer would only have one address phase from a PLB point of view. Other DMA transfers involve either missing data or address phases also. Because of the nature of most on-chip bus implementations and normal data flow in these chip, the PLB DMA transfer types are not normally needed and newer DMA controller cores do not support them.
A_30: The purpose of the high bus utilization setting is to allow a lower priority request of one gender (read / write) to bypass a higher priority request of the opposite gender in the interest of more efficient utilization of the PLB read and write data buses. For example, given a higher priority write and a lower priority read requests presented to the arbiter, normally the write would win the next access. In the situation where the write data bus is busy but the read data bus is free, it is normally advantageous to let the read transaction through first. Use of the HBU setting can help reduce latencies in a busy multi-master PLB environment.
A_31: There are two ways to accomplish this:
A_32: Yes, it is certainly reasonable to have multiple PLB segments and OPB segments in an on-chip bus implementation. These segments may be connected via bridges or they may be totally independent. Use of segmented buses is a routine method of partitioning traffic flows to avoid bus congestion and latency problems. One restriction to be aware of is that the total maximum number of PLB masters on connected PLB segments is 16.
A_33: Architecturally, CoreConnect is defined as a synchronous bus architecture. Almost all on-chip bus implementations have multiple segments, typically one PLB segment, one OPB segment and one DCR segment. Normally, each of these segments is in its own clock domain. The clock domains are typically at different clock frequencies with integer relationships. The bus core implementations require the clocks to be phase synchronous (rising edge alignment) in order to meet chip timing requirements. The bus interfaces of masters and slaves on CoreConnect bus segments must run at the bus clock frequency and be phase aligned.

Motive not known in killings of couple in home
Homicide investigators are trying to determine the motive in the slayings of a husband and wife whose bodies were found Thursday in their Bay Park home.
The bodies of Barry T. Sandberg, 63, and Carol Sandberg, 60, were discovered by police about 2 p.m. at their home on Geronimo Avenue near Cheyenne Avenue, San Diego homicide Lt. Terry McManus said.
The couple had been married for more than 30 years.
Carol Sandberg's mother asked officers to check on the couple after her daughter failed to return her phone calls.
Police did not disclose the cause of death, saying only that the couple suffered traumatic injuries.
Investigators said a motorcycle was missing from the home, and they are trying to determine if it is related to the deaths. The motorcycle is a black 1991 Harley-Davidson Softail with the California license plate HARLYD. No arrests have been made. –K.D. Filner in group detained at protest in Old Town
SAN DIEGO: Rep. Bob Filner was among demonstrators taken into custody by rangers yesterday evening at Old Town State Park during a protest over the loss of union jobs.
Filner, D-San Diego, was one of seven people who staged what they called an act of civil disobedience in front of the entrance to Fiesta de Reyes, the revamped concession of shops and restaurants operated by Chula Vista restaurateur Chuck Ross, during its grand reopening.
The rally, which started about 4 p.m. and drew about 80 protesters, was held by members and supporters of Local 30 of Unite Here, the hotel workers union.
Locking arms and walking side-by-side, Filner, Local 30 President Brigette Browning, San Diego Human Relations Commission chairman Nicole Murray-Ramirez and four others marched to the entrance gate and sat down. They led other demonstrators in noisy chants of "No justice, no peace!" in English and Spanish.
Each was cited about 5:15 p.m. by state park rangers for disturbing the peace, interfering with a lawful business and making unreasonable noise in a state park. They then were released and made to leave, park ranger Capt. Richard Dennison said.
After Ross took over the languishing Old Town concession from New York-based Delaware North, he drew the union's wrath when he declined to rehire 130 union employees who had worked under the old concessionaire.
Ross has said he plans to run the concession as a nonunion shop. He has invited all the laid-off workers to reapply for their jobs, but he offered no guarantees to rehire them. –G.G. Guns, ammunition seized from man's vehicle, home
SAN DIEGO: A man whose vehicle crashed in Pacific Beach had multiple guns and ammunition inside, and pipe bombs and other firearms were found later in a search of his Lake Elsinore home, federal authorities said yesterday.
On Wednesday, San Diego police officers tried to pull over the man, who was driving erratically in Pacific Beach, said Special Agent Michael Hoffman of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The driver crashed into a vehicle and was taken into custody.

35 year old man | Dacono, CO, USA | Seeking women 25-35 within 50 miles
I am curious....
As I get older each year, I have started to realize what truly matters. Although I work an obscene amout of hours, I continue to try and improve myself as a man. I am sure that has different meanings to different people. I believe in family, friends, faith and fun. I really enjoy being alone but I feel it might be time to see what is out there. I am not sure what or who or if I am looking for, but thought I would try something different. I have great friends and great family. I am extremely active but crave at the thought of mid afternoon naps. I do not get out that much, and when I do I live life to the fullest. The whole bar scene is old and I have chose not to date because I find myself being drawn to the same kind of women over and over. Plus I am not a guy who plays games. I believe successful relationships are based on trust and communication. I like women who are straight forward, athletic and easy going..I am a sucker for peanut butter, good conversation, pillow fights, sarcasm and after about two drinks you could pretty much get me to do as you please. I also enjoy mid afternoon naps and like a total loser I have an obsession with cleaning the house. I don't care. I love football, hockey, politics(what a joke), fishing and other outdoor activities. I work in the oil and gas industry. I am sure that profession sounds exciting! I work 7 days on 7 days off. Its actually pretty nice because I have a week to do as I please. I really have no idea why I decided to try this but...What the heck

I love the mountains and I am really into health and nutrition. My grandpa owns a farm so I am always out there goofin off.
I am really focused on my career. I am intent on planning for a secure future and the hope that I might not have to work forever:) But when I am on my own time I love fishing. I recently purchased a house so I have been attempting to improve.
I am an avid fly fisherman when I have time. I need to start to branch out and try new things. I have become a hermit in some ways:) I do love spending time with my true friends and have a profound love for my fam, even though we are spead out

Time Schedule
Bryce Holdaway's appetite for property spans nineteen years starting from when he first stumbled upon the best-selling book 'Building Wealth through Investment Property' in 1994. When Veronica Morgan switched from hospitality to real estate 13 years ago, she knew she'd found her calling. Property is something she instinctively understands and she relishes the contact it gives her with people from all walks of life.
Episode 1 – Helen&Tom/ Robbie&Bec
This week we're in double trouble in one of Australia's toughest markets with two couples who can't afford to take a wrong step. We're on the hunt for houses in some of Melbourne's most popular suburbs with Helen and Tom, a couple of downsizers whose business went bust last year, and also Robbie and Bec, who are trading Melbourne's hip bars for the burbs on a tiny budget. But buying houses can be an emotional business and both couples will find adapting to change is not so easy.
Episode 2 – Fabrizia&Nick_Fred&Coralie
This week we're heading north with two couples making major life changes in the name of work. But moving onwards and upwards is not always a breeze and these sea changers are finding the going a little tough. Newly weds Fabrizia and Nick are swapping Sydney city for the Sunshine Coast and if Fabrizia doesn't find her dream home there's going to be storm clouds on the horizon. Fred and Coralie are saying goodbye to their dream home in Richmond that Fred built 30 years ago. They're looking for a new place to put down roots on the NSW mid north coast, but matching their wants with their wallet is a struggle.
Episode 3 – Terry&Kay_Vanessa&Dwayne
This week we're chasing the sun with two couples seeking a big life change. Terry and Kay and their two young girls are swapping a snowy English winter for fun in the sun on Sydney's northern beaches while Melbournites Vanessa and Dwayne have had a major wake up call and want to start anew on the balmy Gold Coast. But buying houses in unfamiliar markets can be daunting and these two couples are going to need their wits and their wallets if we're going to help them but their dream homes.
Episode 4 – Wendy&Makira_Marty&Jude
This week Bryce and Veronica are managing expectations with two tricky buyers who want a lot more for a lot less. They're hunting for a funky warehouse conversion for Wendy and her teenage daughter Makira in Melbourne's inner city, as well as a character cottage for hipsters Marty and Jude who don't want kids but are trying for a dog! These buyers know what they want and they're not about to compromise. But something's got to give and it's Bryce and Veronica's job to find out what.
Episode 5 – Janey&Richard_Andrew&Ian
This week Bryce and Veronica are helping two lots of house hunters who are not making any headway. They're looking for homes in one of Australia's most expensive real estate markets – Sydney's Eastern Suburbs – with Janey and Richard, and also Andrew and his brother Ian. But matching wallets with wish lists is proving a little difficult. It's time for some radical action and a reality check. But, will it pay off?
Episode 6 – Margaret&Ian_Darina&Lucy
This week Bryce and Veronica are helping two buyers who need, rather than want to find a home. Grey nomads Ian and Margaret have been travelling the highways and byways of Australia in their trusty caravan for three years. Now the kids have called time but are they ready to give up life on the road for a house in Adelaide? It's also time for Darina to stop camping at daughter's Lucy house. But after losing her dream property in the Christchurch earthquake will she be able to put it behind her and find a new place to call home.
Episode 7 – Melissa&Stephen_Rhian&Jarad
Buying a home can be a daunting business but this week Bryce and Veronica are helping two buyers who are taking a brave new approach to buying a house. Best mates Rhian and Jarad are joining forces and throwing their lot in together to buy their first property in Sydney's highly competitive Inner West. While Melissa and Stephen need a total change of scene from Sydney's Eastern Suburbs to the North Shore to make their property dreams come true. But, will they be able to make the move?
Episode 8 – Peter&Grace_Kerry&Wayne
This week Bryce and Veronica are separating dreams from reality with two buyers with grand plans. They're looking for a palatial pile in the beautiful NSW Southern Highlands for Peter and Grace, but finding the perfect property can prove a little testing. They're also on the hunt on the NSW South Coast for Kerry and Wayne. They've got champagne Tastes on a beer budget and it's Veronica's job to convince them you get what you pay for.
Episode 9 – Karen&Robert_Hedley&Anna
This week love is in the air but commitment is proving elusive for writer and performance coach Hedley. She's on the hunt for her dream home in Sydney's ritzy Eastern Suburbs but after four years of looking she hasn't found 'the one' and it's Bryce's job to find out why… Veronica's also got her work cut out for her looking for Karen and Robert's perfect property in Sydney's Inner West. Competition is tough and the market's on the boil, and if that isn't hard enough they want a house with a perfect Feng Shui.
Episode 10 – Fabrice&Meggy_Kelly&Shaun
This week Bryce and Veronica are going troppo in Queensland with two couples making giant moves. Sean and Kelly are packing up the house and the kids and leaving Melbourne for Cairns on a heart warming search to help a mate, while French couple Fabrice and Meggy have decided to pack away the suitcases and put down roots in Brisbane. But buying homes in unfamiliar markets is a risky business and it's Bryce and Veronica's job to help them thread carefully.

Jarboe says fire plan still unclear, closing stations on hold
EVANSVILLE - Evansville Fire Chief Keith Jarboe said Tuesday he has no timeline for making recommendations to the Evansville Safety Board on any proposed changes to local fire services.
When questioned about whether there would be upcoming procedural changes in fire services, Jarboe said there are no such plans. He said discussions about finding ways to operate more efficiently were nothing out of the ordinary.
"Every day we operate, the Evansville Fire Department is trying to find ways to be more efficient," Jarboe said.
He also said he was not ready to make any recommendations to city officials about any proposed changes to local fire services in the wake of his stalled proposal to close two hose houses in the fall.
"I'm not ready to talk about that yet. We still have a little bit of homework to do," Jarboe said.
Initial plans
Jarboe first raised the issue of changes to city fire services in October when he made public a plan to close houses 10 and 14 to make fire protection on the East Side equal to that provided in other parts of the city.
The proposal prompted a landslide of public opinion. In response, the City Council appointed a Fire Advisory Board, but it finished after seven meetings by issuing two differing recommendations.
Neither of those recommendations were the same as Jarboe's original proposal.
Board proposals
One would keep the stations open to house medical equipment. A second would delay changes for at least another year to allow more time to collect data.
Jarboe declined to talk specifically about what issues are being examined.
"Everything is in play. Right now we're not at a point ... (to make recommendations)," he said. "We're not going to make decisions quickly and make bad decisions. We're just not going to rush into anything."

The Allana Group, the 44-year-old Indian-based largest food processor, in the capital since January this year, is to establish a meat processing factory and is currently importing machineries, The Reporter has learnt. Aman R. Khan, head of the company, told The Reporter that Allana has managed to bring in machineries required for the new factory to be erected in Ziway town, some 160 km south-east of the capital.
Khan said that slaughtering machineries, refrigerators, temperature controlling systems and machines that work to measure environmental friendliness of activities are among the various equipment in the list to come.
The head of Allana says that it is difficult to tell how much of the entire job has been done so far. The company has, however, secured 72 hectares of land for the first phase of operations. The other progressing job according to Khan is the design of the factory, for which ETG - a local architects and engineers firm has been awarded to undertake the job. A team of architects visited India to learn about and explore the best slaughtering plants the latter has.
With USD 20 million total investment ventures, Allana is looking to recruit some 600 permanent employees. However, Khan and his team have certain doubts about the capacity of these workers. Moreover, lack of coordination among the public offices is one of the challenges the company has tabled for consideration. Khan hopes that the 'integrated meat processing plant' will start production by September 2014, aiming to slaughter around 200 cattle and 5000 sheep/goats a day. Initially the plant expects to produce 75 tons of meat daily.
Allana Group, known as Allana Sons in India, exports frozen halal buffalo meat, coffee, fruit and other commodities from India to some 70 countries. It was established in 1865 and has come to Ethiopia with its own capital and market know-how.
The Ministry of Industry (MoI) has budgeted some USD 250 million for export earnings in the 2006 Ethiopian fiscal year. Yet its task is not being met with only five slaughterhouses targeting exports. The meat-processing sector of Ethiopia is the most untapped but also the most treacherous, with perennial issues, including illegal smuggling to foreign countries and supply side constraints.
The arrival of Allana is hoped to add more value to the Ethiopian economy, following the existing USD five billion investments by Indian companies.

28 year old man | Glen Mills, PA, USA | Seeking women 18-35 within 50 miles of Garnet Valley, PA
Looking for a girl that stands out.
My name is Keith I am 26 years old, I listen to country music and a little bit of everything else. I am a motivated and hard working business owner. I am looking for a girl who goal oriented and hard working. I am happy with the way my life is now but, would like to have someone to share it with. I have my own business, house, toys and good friends. I work a lot but always save time for the beach on the weekends. If you're not available on most weekends that would complicate things from the beginning and I'm not interested. I'm not into bullshtor games, if you want to talk to me reply back with more then a one word answer! I'm here to meet someone not have a series of conversations that lead to nothing. I feel that meeting in person is important whether it's for a quick coffee or just a walk giving us a chance to talk. I know what I want and I would expect for you to know as well so were both on the same page and were not wasting anyone's time. So with that being said I'm looking for a mature girl with a career or in school working hard to have one. Pretty and athletic is a must! Lets face it.. It's the internet were clicking on profiles based upon appearance...It is the first thing that pops up when you do a search…Isn't it? I am not attracted or interested in girls who wear large amounts of make up. I would expect you to be polite and respectful this is very important to me. If you burp out loud or do un-lady like things it's not going to work. I am old fashion and I expect the girl I am with to be very lady like. Don't let my photos fool you I'm not a big partier, I am a cowboy at heart who wears boots and jeans on a regular basis but, I enjoy the finer things in life like upscale restaurants, and clubs. I also enjoy sitting around a fire with some friends making new memories and enjoy life! If you think we would get along send me a message so we can chat and get to know each other!

Product description
These never before published writings comprise Iris Murdoch's passionate wartime correspondence with two early intimates: the poet Frank Thompson, brother of the historian E.P. Thompson, who was killed in 1944, and David Hicks, with whom she had a dramatic affair, engagement, and breakup. It also includes the journal that Murdoch kept as a touring actress during August of 1939. The selection sheds new light on a brilliant young mind ("sharp and polished as a sword" as Frances Wilson describes it), while painting a vivid picture of life during the Second World War.

Author information
Peter J. Conradi is the author of the critically acclaimed biography Iris Murdoch: A Life and, more recently, Going Buddhist and At the Bright Hem of God: Radnorshire Pastoral.
Review quote
"The other truly remarkable thing about [Murdoch] was the freedom with which she shared her body and, as this book makes plain, there was nothing simplified about Murdoch's sex life . . . Reading Murdoch's letters during this period is something like being plugged into the national grid. Her subjects cover Proust ('delicious, subtle, beautiful'), Tacitus ('I tremble and adore'), politics ('I don't have a clear line on it any more'), the loss of her virginity ('in every way a good thing'), and her longing to write: 'Jesus God how I want to write. I want to write a long long & exceedingly obscure novel objectifying the queer conflicts I find within myself and observe in the characters of others.'" --The London Times "[Adds] to our picture of the vivid, unsettling, paradoxical nature of the young Iris Murdoch . . . We can see here the evolution of the novelist from the jejune chrysalis of her student experiences. Just as she later believed that true philosophy (metaphysics) could only be lived, so her dominant subject as a novelist-the interplay between intelligence and eros, reality and illusion, false magic and true-reached down into the intensity of her early adult relations." --The Daily Telegraph "[The] book dispels th[e] simplistic view and shows the extent of what Conradi calls "the freedom" of Murdoch's mind. It also makes me want to give her fiction another try." --Frank Freeman, First Things "The diary and letters demonstrate how deeply Murdoch mined her own life for the dilemmas, milieu, and emotion that emerge in her novels...Conradi has done an excellent job of editing and introducing these pages; what one ultimately takes away from them is a portrait of a complex young woman in the process of becoming a formidable artist." --Harvard Review Online

But even a new pipeline, he says, will go to failure if not well inspected and maintained. Corrosion caused the Carlsbad event, according to inspectors who examined the wreckage. Weier thinks the danger of future explosions could be defused by better and more frequent inspection, especially in rural areas, where pipelines get a thorough going-over only once every seven years.
Let's start with the good news. The natural gas reserves of the U.S. have increased so substantially that we now have close to a 100-year proven supply. Reserves of potential natural gas have risen in two years from 1.32 trillion cubic feet to 1.84 trillion. The increase is attributable not so much to discoveries of new deposits but to a technique--hydraulic fracturing or fracking--that makes it possible to extract gas from shale deposits at depths of up to 8,000 feet. It uses both drilling and the injection of high-pressure water to fracture rock underground, thereby releasing the natural gas it contains.
Fracking has been around since 1949. But its use in recent years has grown exponentially. Its ability to produce gas isn't in dispute. Its environmental consequences are.
Critics, including filmmaker Josh Fox, whose documentary "Gasland" has aired on HBO, point to the town of Dimock, Pennsylvania, whose citizenry say fracking (or chemicals associated with it) has ruined property, contaminated wells, killed livestock and so infused domestic tap water with methane that it has on occasion caught fire. Then, there's Bainbridge, Ohio's, exploding house: gas from a fracked well migrated into the home's basement and detonated, while damaging the wells of more than a dozen other homes.
"We think it's a big deal," says Kate Sinding, a senior attorney with the Natural Resources Defense Council. "What they're supposed to do is drill down, go through underground aquifers, and use multiple layers of casing--steel pipe and concrete--to protect the aquifer. If they don't do it properly, they create a pathway for contamination, either by methane or by chemicals used in fracking. You're forever altering the geologic layer. Contamination might not show up for years or decades." The long-term consequences she calls "a looming disaster."
Travis Windle, an industry spokesman, says that wells properly constructed and cased pose no risk and could "in no way communicate" with ground water. That's a view shared by Pennsylvania's top environmental regulator, John Hanger, secretary of the Department of Environmental Protection, who earlier this month pronounced fracking safe, telling Reuters, "There's a lot of focus in the media and the public on the problems that we have not had." As for the exploding house, a year-long investigation by Ohio regulators determined that an improper cement job on the well's casing was in part to blame.
