![]() We probably wouldn't do lunches again but may try pizzas or calzones. The salad was mostly iceberg lettuce with two slices of tomato and grated cheese. The bread was a split sandwich roll with butter and garlic. Served with ranch or blue cheese dressing. Indianapolis Jackson Jacksonville Jersey City Kansas City Knoxville. Your choice of traditional or battered wings with your choice of sauce. ![]() The chicken was oven hot, but the pasta only warm. Ranch base, mozzarella cheese, chicken, bacon bits and diced tomatoes. We both had the same opinion: "Just OK." Both dishes had an excess of sauce covering a fairly small portion of chicken (or eggplant). We both ordered parmesans: one eggplant, one chicken. (Later, however, we would have enjoyed a tea refill, but that wasn't offered.) Service was prompt for seating, ordering, and receiving food. Prices range from $8.99 - $10.99 and come with bread and house salad. ![]() The lunch menu has a fair selection of reasonably priced, popular items: spaghetti with sauce, lasagna. Spacing was comfortable enough for easy conversation. The service was both quick and friendly, and the vibes were just cool overall. It was clean, plenty of parking, and tons of places to sit inside.

At Cicis, we open our doors everyday with the purpose of making each guest’s day by delivering remarkable service and high-quality pizza. ![]() The Flic 2 Hub offers pretty much the same functionality as the old Flic Hub, so if you’ve already got this then there’s not much reason to upgrade. Pressing a button paused Sonos pretty much instantly and my Hue lights responded as fast as when using the Philips wireless controls. With the new system, range isn’t a problem in my home and the system is more reliable.įlic 2 Hub response times are excellent, too. ![]() I’ve got a three-storey house with brick walls and high ceilings, and in the loft room I occasionally had to pick up a Flic button to get it to connect to the hub. Range was always good on the Flic buttons, but it was easy to push the buttons to their limits. Range and performance is better with the new buttons The big difference, though, is Bluetooth 5.0 LE, which not only uses less power than the previous Flic buttons but also improves range. Thanks to redesigned buttons, the Flic 2 feels nicer to use and keeps its looks for longer without getting grubby. Flic 2 Hub performance – Better range and a nicer feel Watch this space to see who implements the system. Even so, having additional HomeKit options makes the Flic buttons even more powerful.įlic now has an open connection protocol, so the buttons can be used with iOS, Android, Linux and macOS directly, without needing the Flic 2 Hub or the Flic app. So, if you have to use two actions (say, single click and double click) if you want one button to turn lights on and off. The only annoyance (and this is a HomeKit issue) is that there’s no toggle option available. For example, I have a Flic button set up that will turn on Ambient Lighting, matching the temperature of my Hue bulbs to daylight. After that, each button you add to HomeKit appears in the same room, although you can move them.įrom the Apple Home app, you can select what each button press does. The first time you do this, you’ll go through a wizard, telling HomeKit which room you want the Hub in. Thanks to a firmware update, each Flic button connected to the Hub now has a toggle switch that lets you turn HomeKit support on or off for each button. I’m happy not to use the IR function, but it’s handy that it’s there for those that like it.įor other devices, there’s an IFTTT channel, letting you use a button to trigger any action, from turning on your heating to turning on a light that the Flic 2 Hub doesn’t support directly.Įxcitingly, Apple HomeKit support is now available, which lets you control even more devices directly. Flic can learn IR commands, and you can set delays between commands so as not to flood the device just be aware that some devices won’t play nicely and you may need to send a command twice to get the desired action. If you have the IR accessory, you can set up your Flic to perform actions such as turning on a soundbar and TV, quickly switching a room to movie mode and getting ready for an evening’s entertainment. Sonos control is arguably easier with a button than the app or voice Arguably, you get more control with the Philips Hue Smart Button, which lets you dim your lights too, and works using the same Zigbee network as the bulbs. With my Philips Hue lights, I set the single click to toggle the office lights on and off, used the double click to set a scene, and used press and hold to set a specific colour. The gap has narrowed, though, and the hub supports the most popular systems. If you connect the Flic 2 to your phone you also get Osram Lightify, Bose SoundTouch and Ecobee control, among others, plus you can control features on your phone, such as setting an alarm, hanging up a call or sending a Gmail. On the Flic 2 Hub, the main integrations are the Harmony Hub, IFTTT, Ikea Tradfri, Philips Hue, LIFX, Nanoleaf, Sonos, Spotify Web Connect and WeMo. ![]() You get a slightly more limited selection of actions via the hub than if you connect the button to your phone. For example, you could pause all Sonos players and turn off lights if you want a button by the front door for when you go out. Each of these can be set to perform a different action on a different device, or perform multiple actions. Buttons have three actions: single click, double click, and press and hold. Once it’s added to a Flic 2 Hub, you can give each Flic 2 a name, so you know which one you’re programming. Flic 2 Hub features – Great today, better tomorrow ![]() For 30 years we have been serving not only the United States but the world. However, I would pass on FTI for a more serious THM700-R4.Mad Dog Transmissions has been in business since 1986. If a mild or stock THM700-R4 is what you want. If anyone here needs to find a shop for a 3,000 HP THM400. They have some great THM400s and PowerGlides! Not state of the art, but that is not what they are claiming to offer anyway. any of you can ask Dalton about me (Just refer to me as the GM Engineering Guy on LS1Tech). I love the Guys there (Dalton is the Man over there) and I love their Torque-Converters! I know them all quite well, and have passed on some of the critical minutia that allows for such Transmissions to be built. However, there are roughly 10 Shops across the country that can properly build a THM700-R4, THM200-4R, and also the 4L60E, for reliable 600 to 1,000+ HP. The information needed to accomplish this is very well known. Most Transmission businesses today can build a Stock THM700-R4, or even a mildly modified THM700-R4 with great results. They are way behind on technology and to this day still implement modifications that only harm the Transmission. That is how hard-parts break/ fail from improper, overly-harsh, bang-shifts. ![]() Shim an Accumulator, so that it is physically blocked in place. They do what many uneducated people did in the 1970s and 1980s. Instead of Increasing Line-Pressure apropiately, setting Clutch or Band clearance to a fine/ critical measurement, and sizing the appropriate Orifice, for a particular Shift to be firm and positive feeling. What's wrong with TCI? 'Just curious.TCI (like many other big name Automatic Transmission Companies) has felt that investing the time to learn what makes a Throttle-Valve Transmission work, to be a waste. The Holley/ Earl's Oil-Coolers are absolutely amazing!!! The B&M Oil-Coolers should be purchased as the Long Manufacturing Product as the B&M versions are less and less available. Holley like Federal-Mogul (and the now growing Edelbrock Performance Group), is now the second largest Aftermarket Performance Parts Company in the World. they are being phased-out for Holley/ Earl's Branded Oil Coolers. If you plan on ever servicing/ disassembly of the AN lines spend the money for a name-brand product such as "Earl's".Lastly Holley purchased control/ distribution rights for B&M Oil Coolers. These tend to strip the threads/ become damaged once taken apart for reuse. Meaning installed and never removed or altered. They are generally perfectly fine for "One-Time" use. Be carefull with any "Summit" or "Jegs" branded fittings/ hose-ends for AN lines. GM made the change to larger transmission cooler-lines across the entire portfolio of vehicles. ![]() Life expectancy is increased from just the increase in cooler-line size (flow and temps here are improved). This simple upgrade/ change actually had a great beneficial impact on the transmission oil cooler circuits and torque-converter charge circuits. ![]() Really should have the smaller 5/16" lines upgraded to 3/8" hard-line or -6AN hose. Those of our cars and vehicles that are older and did not have OEM 3/8" diameter transmission oil-cooler lines installed. The same product can be purchased as "Long Manufacturing: LPD4711" or "True-Cool: M7B". while operating quite well, is a over-priced re-branded product. ![]() Four and seven are still among the best numbers you can draw - they’re just not as good as they were before. (The other season in that group of eight is 1994, when the NFL introduced the two-point conversion.) Since 2015, we've experienced seven of the eight lowest frequencies of final scores ending in zero, one, three, four, or seven dating back to 1932. Traditional NFL final-digit stalwarts zero, one, three, four, and seven have ceded over seven percentage points’ worth of final-score probability to less-common numbers two, five, six, eight, and nine. Practically speaking, the "weird score era" has made Super Bowl Squares more equitable. We need to focus on the "weird score era" instead (2015 onward). 2022 was the fourth-weirdest ever.Īs a result, you can no longer rely on final scores from "all of NFL history" or "the Super Bowl era" or "since the AFL-NFL merger" or even "recent history" to figure out how good your Super Bowl Squares are. The 20 seasons set records for weird scores. From 1922 to 2014, only 9.5% were "non-traditional," cementing "traditional" football scores (17, 21, 24, 28, 31, etc.) in the American consciousness. Since 2015, 19.9% of individual team scores have been “ non-traditional” (18, 19, 22, 26, 33, etc.), compared with an average of 13.6% from 1994 (when the two-point conversion was introduced) to 2014 (before the extra point was moved back). Even more precisely, it is the combination of these factors - missed extra points, made field goals, and two-point conversion attempts - at historic levels all at once that has made scores so weird. The only periods in NFL history when kickers performed worse on extra points were the mid-to-late 1970s, right after the goal posts were moved to the back of the end zone, and before 1948.Ĭombined with other aspects of the modern game - namely the proliferation of field goals and existence of the two-point conversion - the move has given rise to the weirdest scores in NFL history. The short version is that before the 2015 season, the league moved the extra point back from 20 yards, where kickers converted 99% of the time, to 33 yards, where they’ve made 94% of kicks over the past eight seasons. Those of you familiar with ELDORADO know that I’ve tracked and analyzed the changing face of NFL scores over the past few seasons. What are weird scores and why do they matter? ![]() * dynamic input (can be turned off – statusbar) * type AUTOSAVEINTERVAL in command window to change * auto-save with recovery (default 5 min) * user can update bcad.lin with custom linetypes * different line types loads from bcad.lin * modern designed with ribbon bar and large buttons * 64-bit version with MDI (multiple-document-interface) ![]() Improvements and features that are added in this version are: More advanced version of professional free CAD software which is now 64-bit with multi-document-interface with ribbon bar and optimized for Windows 10, but also works for other 64-bit Windows OS like Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.

To enter the desired distance amount, type 6, then press Tab to switch to the angle input field. NOTE: You need to use the mouse to point in the general direction you want the line segment to go before entering the distance and angle values. Using the mouse, move the cursor upwards to indicate the direction of the next point. Press the Enter key to apply the start point coordinates. To specify the starting point for our shape, press the 2 key, comma ( ,), then 4 key again so that you end up with 2,4 in the command line: While we could click with the mouse to specify a coordinate, let’s be more specific and type it in: Paying close attention to the Command Line will make you a more effective user.Īs you’ll see with most AutoCAD drawing tools, the first step when a command is entered is to specify the start point. You’ll see the command you are in, the stage of the command, and the options that are available. When entering a command with the mouse or keyboard, it appears in the Command Line. Īt the bottom of the screen, notice that choosing the tool has activated the Command Line panel. In the Ribbon panel at the top of the screen, click on the first Line tool. You’ll learn how these work in the next exercise. If either option is blue, click it to switch it off.
