  • Very nice and modern, everywhere was really clean the staff were extra helpful finding cool activities for me to do. The showers were far away from the rooms but were awesome, hot with great pressure. They also had hair dryers in the shower room which was nice. there was a small pool and sauna which looked great but were only open from 9-11 am, I would definitely have used them if they were open in the evening. The kitchen and lounge area were both big and nice. It wasn't a very social hostel.

  • Awesome hostel not far from the city centre but a bit out the way of the train/bus station area. Nevertheless very cool place, clean rooms and shower, and the jacuzzi/sauna is awesome to cure a hangover ;) Really cool kitchen downstairs too, but the city centre is close by so for our two nights here we didn't need to use it! Very nice stay and would recommend :D

HI-Maligne Canyon

Poised alongside the Maligne River, just above the spectacular depths of Maligne Canyon, this serene hostel is an all-season destination. Travellers will enjoy an array of hiking, cycling, and cross-country skiing trails. The nearby Skyline Trail offers one of Jasper National Park's most scenic hikes.

**NOTE - Due to the wilderness location, accessibility for the physically disabled is challenging (call for further details) Credit Card needed when making reservations. Due to lack of direct/reliable communication with the Wilderness Hostels the Central Reservation Office is not able to make same day arrival reservations - walk in basis only. 48 hours individual cancellation - at all wilderness hostels. Book ahead to avoid any disappointment. As these smaller hostels are very popular both winter and summer.

RATES QUOTE FOR MEMBERS OF HOSTELLING INTERNATIONAL. All non members will be charged an additional %10 levy when they arrive at the Hostel.

*This hostel is closed during the day!
CHECK OUT - prior to 10am

No running water, no electricity, no phone service.

A word on HI-Wilderness Hostels:

Get back to nature with HI's network of wilderness hostels. They're a varied bunch! Some have lights powered by propane, some have rustic wood-burning saunas, at some you'll get electricity, and at others you'll get to pump your own water. But whatever you're after, these hostels with their simple comforts immerse you in the natural splendour of the Rockies.

You'll be able to savour true silence, night skies bursting with stars and the knowledge that some of the world's most magnificent outdoors is, really, just out the door. Dotted along the Icefields Parkway, and throughout the Parks, these hostels are set into pockets of trees, alongside creeks, or at the base of thousand-foot-high rock faces. Whether you get there by car, bike or on food, your efforts are rewarded with some of the finer, simpler things in life - a warm fire, cozy lounges, and the chance to share food with new friends while you relive the day's adventures.

I had a wonderful stay at HI Sacramento. The location is great as is the historic nature of the building. The staff was friendly and the on site parking lot was a great think to have.

This was my first time staying in a Hostel, my whole experience was great. I had a private room with a private bathroom. I slept really well, it was quiet and comfortable.The staff was very friendly and helpful, I would definitely stay there again. :)

Beautiful house. Terrific staff. I'd like to go back and spend more than one night.

The house is beautiful though the 3rd floor women's shower sdid not work. I used the second floor shower....

The staffs I met were all helpful. I could enjoy my stay thanks to them. Atmosphere was calm and quiet unlike partyhouse hostels in other cities and I liked it. I took a really nice rest for couple of days.

I only stayed there for one night. From my brief experience it is really great. Staff are friendly and helpful, cleanliness and facilities are good and well - functioning. Also it is worth mentioning that the whole Victorian style building is fabulous both inside and outside, and Capitol park is only few blocks away. I strongly recommend it to anyone who will visit Sacramento.

Great value for your money. Fully equipped kitchen and super cool and friendly staff. Location isn't in the center, but close to a metro station so it's fairly easy to get there. Quiet at night, not a party hostel. Felt more like a homestay, than living in a hostel, but it was a very nice experience! Super cool cleaning lady

Loved this hostel! Near the Metro so easy to get around the city! Not many shops nearby, there are malls about a fifteen minute/twenty minute walk away. The rooms are nice and clean, the showers hot with GREAT pressure, they have a nice pool and cosy common area. The kitchen is stocked well and there's free coffee 24/7 :) The wifi was good and all over the hostel... Staff were so friendly and helpful. There weren't too many people there with us so it was quiet enough but that didnt bother me.

Why Online Maps Are Handy?

Today, most people spend a considerable amount of time online. There is also more and more people spending time traveling then in decades past. Some reasons include more people traveling for business, and also the cost of travel is more affordable, with more options available for booking reservations for various aspects of travel including flights, hotels, and cars. Because more people are traveling, and so much time is spent on the internet, a fairly new concept has emerged online. Online maps have become very popular over the last few years. Most people that have used the internet and have also traveled have probably taken advantage of online maps and for many reasons. Why Online Maps Are Handy?

1960sTimes-Show Rides - Dream Car of the Month

Written on November 19, 2006 Hey, Gang-Let's Go '60s Style!
1960sTimes-Show Rides - Dream Car of the Month View All 1 Photos
0611 Rcop 01 Z+dream Car+illustration 1/1

Now I don't mean the flower power, hippie era. I prefer 1960-66 times-show rides, wild paint, and an "anything is game" attitude.

I've always loved the look of a '27 tall T sedan ever since I began building models as a kid. This right-on ride begins with a sedan with a little shave off the top, but just a wee one. I would pie-cut the roofline 2 inches at the front pillars for a go-fast tilt, and then stretch the whole custom frame 5 inches in longitude with a gentle sweep from the firewall forward to give a semi-Deuce kick and feel.

Hanging forward, I would suicide the frontend using a '37 Ford front axle and reversed eye spring. A nice rake, but not radical. Out back, I would choose a '40 rear, convert it to open drive, and retain the transverse spring.

The powertrain would consist of a '60s vintage Olds motor, laden with go-fast speed goodies and topped off with a four-carb log manifold. Exhaust would be handled with a set of custom-made weed burner pipes.

For bling, I would have this baby dipped in chrome-frontend, suspension, and rear. I would shod the skins with wide whites all 'round, and the rears would be a vintage piecrust slick from Hurst Racing tires. Chrome reverse wheels would add more sparkle and give that early show rod feel.

The icing on the cake would be having the body lathered in a deep candy red (with 'flake, of course!) over a silver base. I would accent the secondary color in an English white. The cockpit would wear a deep coat of white tuck 'n' roll, a '40 Ford dash, and tall custom buckets. With a look like something Revell or Monogram would have offered in '65, this would be the cat's meow.

Pierson Brothers' 1934 Ford Coupe

Written by on August 20, 2013 Contributors: Wes Allison, When Coupes Were For Chickens
Pierson Brothers' 1934 Ford Coupe View All 4 Photos

Racing at the California dry lakes dates to the early 1930s and first became organized in late 1937 with the formation of the SCTA; around the same time, the lakes races stopped being wheel-to-wheel and started being clocked for time only. By 1949, accounting for dry years during WWII, there had been roughly 14 years of active dry-lakes racing—and nearly every race car was a roadster or open-top modified or streamliner. Though the small Muroc Timing Association and Western Timing Association were liberal enough to allow virtually anything to race before the war, it took 1949’s founding of the Russetta Timing Association to create a place for coupes and sedans to run in their own classes. The SCTA had certain disdain for closed cars, but when the group finally allowed some test runs by coupes, the closed cars ran competitive times, and the previously questioned validity of the Russetta clocks had to be accepted. The SCTA finally made coupe-and-sedan classes for 1951.

Ford Coupe April 1950 Hot Rod Cover Pierson 2/4 Bob Pierson himself appeared on the Apr. 1950 cover with the race car.

Lou Baney ran the first race coupe that made news, but the fame has stuck with this red, white, and blue lakes car, built by Bob and Dick Pierson in 1949-’50 with help from Edelbrock’s Bobby Meeks. The team turned it into the fastest hot rod coupe anywhere, eventually exceeding 150 mph with Ford flathead power, and it was the first car to exhibit a serious attempt at aerodynamics after Meeks suggested the radically chopped top and leaned-back windshield.

The car was sold in 1951, and after a fistful of owners, it fell into the hands of Tom Bryant, who raced it at the lakes until 1991, then sold it to Bruce Meyer, who had it restored by So-Cal Speed Shop in its Pierson Bros. trim.

Improving Midget Aerodynamics

Written by on July 8, 2010 You May Think There Is Little That Can Be Done To Improve The Aerodynamics For Open-Bodied Sprint-Style Racers, But This Race Team Found That Just Isn't True
Improving Midget Aerodynamics View All 10 Photos

Sprint Cars are the model of simplicity. Straight front axles, open wheels and cockpit, and minimum weight often make for lots of fun, and some really intense racing. But one area where Sprint Cars haven't been given as much attention as their Stock Car brothers is in the area of aerodynamics. Yes, Winged Sprint Cars have those huge wings to provide plenty of downforce, but what about the "naked" cars? That's why when Dave Salazar, general manager of the A2 Wind Tunnel, told us about a Midget team coming to test, it definitely got our interest.

The race team is Brown & Miller Motorsports, which races USAC-sanctioned Midgets. "We really just went there the first time wanting to figure out where we were aerodynamically," says Brad Noffsinger, who manages the team. "But we really learned a lot, specifically about how air moves through the radiator-and not just getting a lot of air to the radiator. It turned out that exhausting the air out of the radiator and the engine compartment was a big issue with cooling. We did a few panel adjustments and added a few NACA ducts to move more air and it cooled the water temps 25 degrees on the racetrack. Once we learned that, we could go back to hopping up the motors and making more power."

Noffsinger hit on an area where Salazar stresses smart race teams can capitalize on during wind tunnel testing even if the rules on bodies and aerodynamics are very restrictive. In essence, a wind tunnel can tell you a lot more about how airflow is affecting the race car beyond downforce and drag (although both are important).

"If you take the time to look at pressure differentials, you can really do a lot of interesting things inside a wind tunnel," Salazar says. "So even though the Midget doesn't have any fenders you can move around, or even a wing like one of the Winged Sprints, there was a lot this team could do.

"Besides looking at different ways to get more air through the radiator, we also tried two different hoods. The hood shape is not only important for the obvious aero issues, but they also had different scoop designs and by putting monitors inside the air cleaner, we were able to see which design got more air to the engine's intake.

"So even though one hood may look sleeker on the car, if it is choking off the air available to the engine it could actually be costing you speed on the racetrack. And there's really no way to tell without some form of testing."

Noffsinger adds, "We also looked at ways to keep the air from buffeting the driver's head so much on big race tracks. That's something he won't notice until it goes away, but it will help concentration. But the interesting thing about that are the changes that we made I think also made the car safer. We moved some panels around and rounded the edges on them to get the air to track a different way. And getting rid of any sharp edges near the driver is always a good idea, so it is a benefit two different ways."

Although most wind tunnels are exclusively the domain of top-level race teams with mega budgets, the A2 Wind Tunnel in Mooresville, North Carolina, is designed to be affordable for Saturday-night level race teams. For example, instead of a rolling road setup or a mechanism that spins the wheels, A2 instead uses a unique system that blows and sucks air underneath the car to simulate how the track moving underneath the race car affects airflow. And while A2's staff does not give advice on what aero changes will work best (they are very careful about giving away aero secrets a previous race team may have already learned in the wind tunnel), they will work to help customers run their tests as efficiently as possible and learn as much as they can from the data collected. For most tests, data is collected in "counts" of downforce, but for simplicity's sake in this article, Salazar converted the data into the equivalent of horsepower required to push a Midget car to 140 mph. And when we give the horsepower numbers here, that's only what is required to overcome aerodynamic drag, we're not talking about weight, drag from the driveline, or anything else.

Do your homework as it may be more cost effective to just get the plug and play aftermarket wiring harness also time effective as well..

I have tried most all of it and now do what is known to work..

bobyell sorry bad terminoligy , I did mean the catalyzed glaze putty. Although I hate using that stuff, it seams like it creates more work than it solves. But that is probably me. just wanted to be sure it is ok to putty then seal minor spots. i did try it and once its sanded you cant tell where i laid more sealer down.

09-25-2009 11:22 AM
cyclopsblown34 I wouldn't use the one step spot putty. I'd use a catalyzed glaze, it won't shrink later on down the road like the one step spot putty will. i would try and scuff the sealer a little bit to make certain the glaze has something to bite to.

bobyell Nobody ? I'll take a spin over to Robbins auto parts.

Final sealer fixes

Hi guys,

I have used ppg dp50lf epoxy primer on the parts as the base primer. Once it was sealed I used a primer surfacer to get ride of sanding scratches etc.. When I was satisfied with the look and feel of the panel I put the final ppg seal coat over that. But I noticed that after I applied the final seal coat that some minor spots I missed appeared. Can I just use spot putty on the area and sand then reseal that spot only?

I intend on wet sanding the final seal coat with 600 grit paper to get rid of the minor orange peel.

You guys and this site have help me out a TON on how to paint and diagnose "gun issues" I can now spray with very little peel on the primers.

Check out this company for battery chargers.
12-10-2003 04:17 PM

thanks alot for the answer
12-10-2003 01:50 PM
Wrencher It'll take a while, depending on the batt, poss overnight, but slow is the best way! A good charger will set you back 2-3 hundred, but something with a boost would be nice!

hi, i have a question about chargers

hey, everone i have a question about a battery charger that i might buy from Canadiantire, but i want a answer first, i want to know how long will a 12volt battery take to charge on this kind of charger, here are the Features:

For cars, light trucks, lawn tractors, etc.
For use on both 6 V and 12 V batteries
6 amp medium charge keeps 6-and 12-volt batteries fully charged and ready to use
3-mode battery charger allows customers to charge at different amps
2-amp charger keeps stored 12-volt lead acid batteries charged
Manual charger requires monitoring of battery condition, to avoid ovrecharging

Thanks Alot For The Help!

oldred The Eaton is a good compressor and there has been many good reviews here on them but you are getting pump displacement confused with output CFM, The Eaton is good but it does not produce 37 CFM.
08-04-2008 05:50 AM
Air compressors.

Noticed all the talk about air compressors. For small to medium shop owners, I very much recommend the Eaton 3 cyclinder 80 gallon. For everything you get with this compressor, they far exceed all others. Look at the cfm. 37.5!!! Along with that, super quiet, especially nice when the compressor is in your work area. You can stand by this machine, while it is running, and have a conversation on your cell phone. I dont know of any other manufacture of a piston pump compressor putting out this much, for that kind of money, And Ive done research for 3 months. Most others max out at the 17 to 21 cfm range, with out the long warranty of the eaton. I just ordered my Second Eaton, 1st being sold with my shop in florida,

take care and good luck
02-11-2006 07:00 PM

I'm a little late for this conversation. I have a friend with a roll back. It works great to unload heavy loads. Just back up to my truck, wench it on the roll back then let it down. With straps it even worked to unload a 30" bandsaw and a milling machine. Both very top heavy.
02-11-2006 05:59 PM

Sorry to revive this old thread but I have a sanborn 60Gal 2 stage compressor and its begining to take a long time to build up pressure. I have taken the topend off and the cylinders look great. the valve plate look a little worse for wear would it help to replace them?? or any other ideas?
11-17-2005 07:24 PM

yea its a single phase 220 baldor .. looks fairly new
11-17-2005 06:57 PM
oldred Sanborn, 5 HP, 2 stage, $320.00 I think that motor is probably a GE or Baldor? If it is either at 5 HP then the motor alone will be worth nearly that.
11-17-2005 06:43 PM
It needs a few parts

Thanks for the reply oldred... Finally got it home and it needs most of the plumbing up top. The intercooler tube between stages and the tank supply lines are broken/missing, and some other small parts. Tank was made in 98 looks to be in real good shape. The good news is that Coleman Powemate still carries parts for this unit at a reasonable price. looks like I'll have about 320.00 into the projsect and come out with a 800-900$$ compressor.
11-14-2005 09:50 PM
oldred DV, Without knowing what you need for it plus not knowing the operating hours it would be hard to guess the value. Still it is a two stage and Sanborn is a good make so you will need to compare the cost to a new one. What does it need? How old is it, What is the condition of the tank? I know you cannot check the inside of the tank but does it have any cracks? dents? rust? If the tank has any of these flaws, with the exception of LIGHT rust, then it needs to be replaced.
11-14-2005 07:01 PM
Holy Cow!!

Well before I went to pick the compresor up this morning I found a online source for the parts I need. It looks like about 200.00 for the parts i need to bring this compressor up to safe operating conditions. DO you all think it's worth it?? I'll have about 400.00 into the project. It's still not bad for a 5hp 2 stage 60gal setup,.
11-13-2005 12:36 PM
oldred Sanborn is a well known brand and parts should be easy to find. Which model did you get?
11-13-2005 12:05 PM
Bought one..

I found a Sanborn 2 stage 5 hp 50 gal tank at a local shop equipment rebuilder. paid $250 but it needs a little work. hope parts arent hard to find.
10-21-2005 10:59 AM
oldred Shine, That link has a ton of good, no nonsense info
10-21-2005 09:46 AM
shine go to and ask Dr Gun about compressors and cfm requirements for guns. if your never going to paint then any compressor will do but if you use an older style gun ,even an hvlp your not going to get there. just my opinion and based on experience and what i've learned about the new guns. a jga siphon gun with a 3 hp pump will barely get you through a bike job. there is a form you can fill out and get an air audit. hope this helps

i bought my 5 and 10 horse compressors rebuilt in 84. both ar still doing fine. 5 horse went through the flood so it's rebuilt.
10-21-2005 08:54 AM
oldred DV, Shine is right about that thing, the numbers don't look right. The HP at the running AMPS listed is only about 3 HP and even though those V designed compressor pumps(single stage) are usually a little more efficient than an inline design that CFM rating is highly suspect for 3 HP. It is very hard to figure the true performance on these cheaper compressors because it is so easy to twist the numbers. Start-up AMPS mean nothing to performance except to deceive the buyer and running AMPS will give only a vague idea of performance but you can expect only about 10-11 true CFM from 12.5 AMPS and in most cases even less than that. If you can not afford a name-brand compressor you can look at the specs on them, the honest ones anyway, and compare performance numbers. Sometimes it looks like one is not getting much performance for the money when looking at the pro-brands but you have to remember that this is usually true figures and the true amount of air available is what counts not some ridiculous numbers painted on the side of the compressor. If you are going to buy a compressor soon let us know what you find and maybe we can help you cut through the nonsense and get the most for your money since some of the low cost units can be a decent buy.
10-21-2005 05:31 AM
shine call a local compressor rebuilder. he can give you the straight poop on compressors. i doubt this compressor will serve your needs if you use body tools or paint. if you look on the motor tag under hp it will say spl. meaning it is not a true 4hp. it's most likely a 3hp motor with 2 starters to get it going. the advertised cfm's seem really high for a small compressor.

re: dropped spindles

FWIW. You didn't mention the application, but, I just got a pair of 65 - 70 chevy dropped spindles from CPP (Classic performaqnce Products), very impressive. beefy enough to support a tank. $239.00 alone. They came in a kit that included disc conversion brackets, rotors, calipers, bearings, seals, nuts, washers, cotter pins, dust caps, flex hoses, both 7/16ths and 1/2 inch mounting bolts for the steering arms. I didn't need a single extra piece. (bearings were prepacked) The kit was $499.00. First kit I've ordered that I didn't have a single problem with.
I'm always hunting a bargain, but I draw the line on brakes and steering.
09-02-2007 07:40 AM
powerrodsmike I see chinese importer written all over that website...

When I see wordings like these, it's a dead giveaway

Chevy Bearing Kit For Spindle Contain Of 4-bearing, 2-seal, 2-dust Cover, 2-washer, 2-nut, 2-pin Application
That's the kind of description that got crossed up in a chinese to english translation.

Look at the headers, they call the collecter gaskets "collections" gaskets.

On the linear actuator page they say that their actuators have a "self-locing" rating of 800n..What is 'self-locing"? And what is "N"? Newtons?

I see no listed prices, a search for "Wysco" turns up places like jegs, and JC whitney selling their parts as "economy parts,, and they are also involved in the pocket bike imports..

Like this one here..

At least they straightened it out,, it only took a little persuasion from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

I'd steer clear of that place.

Passenger side dip vs driver side dip in early Nova

Will a 207 cast block (pass side dip 80-85) fit in place of an 010 drivers side dip, interchange into a early 60's Nova?

BTW this is a 350 chevy small block

Probably not. The problem is with the oil pan. Novas take a specific pan that is only made for the driver-dip block. I have seen pans with both bulges to fit either block, but I've never seen a Nova pan with both bulges.

I would check with Milodon or Stefs. They both make a wide variety of pans for engine swaps. If anyone makes one, they do.

Some new music you may want to check out

Lady Gaga looks on during the German TV show “Wetten dass...?” on Nov. 7 in Braunschweig, Germany.

Associated Press
Published: Friday, January 29, 2010 at 3:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 9:04 a.m.

“2010 Grammy Nominees” by various artists

Released: Jan. 19.

More encompassing than one of those popular “Now! That's What I Call Music” compilations — but no less reductive — this year's edition of the Grammys' annual mix CD is a comprehensive listen to the music that dominated 2009. If you were paying close attention and listening to lots of FM radio, you're likely sick of most of these songs. But if you're only now catching up on the year's biggest tracks, this serves as an excellent primer.

It starts with the pop — the music that makes you move. “I Gotta Feeling,” by the Black Eyed Peas, is last year's defining party anthem, and Lady Gaga's “Poker Face” is a close second. Kings of Leon's “Use Somebody” is a powerhouse of an emotive rock song that helps the disc transition nicely into some of the year's soft-rock favorites, from a banal Dave Matthews Band ballad to Taylor Swift's clean-cut “You Belong to Me,” from catchy Colbie Caillat's “Fallin' for You” to the Fray's ubiquitous “You Found Me.”

The disc includes the obligatory country tracks — upbeat pop-country offerings from Sugarland, Lady Antebellum and the Zac Brown Band. A couple of weak offerings from U2 (“I'll Go Crazy if I Don't Go Crazy Tonight”) and Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood (“Can't Find My Way Home”) bring the disc to a close, but, as expected, the comp stronger on the pop side, what with the inclusion of dance-floor fillers “My Life Would Suck Without You” by Kelly Clarkson and “Hot N Cold” by Katy Perry.

The Grammys will be awarded Jan. 31.

Eels' “End Times”

Released: Jan. 19.

Everywhere Mark Oliver Everett looks, he sees something he doesn't like.

Whether it's the relationship dissolution that's at the heart of his latest album, “End Times,” or the scary state of affairs in our world that he layers atop his personal pain, there's little for Everett — known as Eels or E — to be happy about.

While the emotions here are mostly difficult, E leavens the hurt with shifting textures and tempos and his trademark humor.

“A Line in the Dirt” kicks off with one of the funniest opening lines in memory — which sadly can't be reprinted here. The melancholy “In My Younger Days” is a meditation on midlife crises and he retells the breakup against type in the upbeat rocker “Gone Man.”

He backs a loner's declaration and an apocalyptic vision — “The city's on fire you can smell the flesh, and the screams like dogs in the wilderness...” — with an airy guitar strum on “The Mansions of Los Feliz” and strangely compares his ex to a “scary little suicide bomber” in “Paradise Blues.”

This is Everett's second album in six months, a rapid-fire output for an artist who had a four-year break between releases before “Hombre Lobo” came out over the summer. The albums cover similar thematic ground, but that's OK.

Ckeck this track out: Everett is at his best when he uses humor to paint a sad picture and “A Line in the Dirt” is Everett at his most clever. Backed by doleful horns and a lonely piano line, he shows us the moment where things went around the corner, and it hurts.

“Crazy Heart: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack” by various artists

Released: Jan. 19.

In the film “Crazy Heart,” actor Jeff Bridges plays a hard-drinking country singer struggling to maintain a career long after he's stopped having hits. The soundtrack leans on the bluer side of country music, ignoring modern country's slick surfaces for a compilation of classic country, acoustic blues and hard-bitten singer-songwriter fare.

Musical director T Bone Burnett cherry-picks hits by the Delmore Brothers, Waylon Jennings, George Jones, Louvin Brothers, Buck Owens and Kitty Wells to ground the soundtrack in time-tested standards. He balances it with more recent tunes by Americana singer-songwriters (Ryan Bingham, Billy Joe Shaver, Townes Van Zandt, Lucinda Williams) and a blues legend (Lightnin' Hopkins). Then he works in original songs from the film, most of them co-written by Burnett and the late Stephen Bruton and sung by Bridges or co-stars Robert Duvall and Colin Farrell.

The actors don't have the distinct vocal character of the established singers, but Burnett gives their songs an earthy resonance befitting the film's honky-tonk ambiance. “Crazy Heart” makes a convincing argument that there are certain country-music traditions that remain timeless.

The soundtrack comes in a limited-edition, expanded package with 23 songs or a regular 17-song version.

Check this track out: “Crazy Heart” likely will raise the profile of Ryan Bingham, a whiskey-voiced Americana singer from New Mexico, who appears in the film and whose song “I Don't Know” is a highlight of the soundtrack.

Spoon's “Transference”

Released: Jan. 19.

“Transference,” the follow up to Spoon's 2007 effort “Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga,” is as driven and manic as it's predecessor, if not somewhat more sour.

There's plenty of tracks that are signature Spoon, with uptempo staccato chords and singer Britt Daniel's sandpapery whelps. But “Transference” brings it down a notch with a less polished sound that comes across more like a demo, which gives it more of an organic feel.

“Who Makes Your Money?” challenges the appeal of the overproduced track. “Is Love Forever,” echoes a chord progression that would solicit a smile from Queens of The Stone Age, but is arguably the best example of the standard Spoon track.

Many tracks are missives about heartbreak. “Written in Reverse” proclaims, “I wanna show you how I love you / but there's nothing there.”

Other tracks meld warbling vocals — notes that buzz and hiss with reverb, with menacing, distorted guitar melodies creating a surprisingly pleasing amalgam of sound. Plaintive piano chords are heard on the song “Goodnight Laura,” “Transference's” quintessential ode to love and misery.

Adjust “Transference” for distorted notes and find some comfort in being sad.

Check this track out: “Nobody Gets Me but You,” a fine-tuned treatise on social disenfranchisement, is an apt soundtrack for a down-on-your-luck, rainy afternoon — sad, rambling, but somewhat hopeful still.

The Necks' “Silverwater”

Released: Oct. 27.

“Silverwater,” like most albums by the Necks, is like land passing below you from an airplane window. It's so big and slow that it resists description.

It's the same for miles at a stretch: mostly piano, bass and drums repeating, repeating, repeating a grid of static sounds or short melodic figures in a cycle. There are small rolls of tom-toms, a four-note ascending bass line, a mutating organ wash, light cymbal crashes on every fourth beat. Over time the music changes, but so gradually that your mind has erased what it sounded like five minutes ago. Of course you can go back and find out, but that flattens the experience.

None of “Silverwater,” this Australian trio's 15th album, follows any straight-up idiom, whether jazz or classical minimalism or rock. It imitates the surfaces of all those things, at various times. The Necks know endless ways to stretch their resources. They isolate an instrument. They make foreground slowly become background. They don't particularly care about melody or moving harmony. What they really care about is how to articulate and repeat a short phrase, not only on their three primary instruments but also, here, on organ and shakers and — a first for a Necks album — on electric guitar, played by the drummer Tony Buck. They'll stagger or layer different approaches to these short phrases, rendering them evenly, intermittently, wavelike.

When the Necks seem vaguely jazzlike (the big tone of the acoustic bass, the small repeated shards of a chattering drum or piano pattern), they sound full and authoritative. But the Necks imitating rock has no wiggle in it; it’s as juicy as eating dust. With the Necks, it seems, Buck’s job is to delay everyone’s gratification: the audience’s, certainly, and maybe even his own.

The point of “Silverwater” is the entire creation: not just the taste of each ingredient but how it gets put into the bowl. And, of course, the slow logic of the transitions. You’re always waiting, with this band. It methodically drips all these ingredients into the mix, never breaking an even pace, and you wonder when it’s going to shake it up, displace a few things, stumble or shout: i.e., make music. Then at some point, no matter how many times you’ve heard the group before, you say, “Oh I see, this is the main event.” Yet you’re still wondering where it’s going. It’s got you twice over.

Default Toilet Bowl Cleaning

Have 2 Gerber 1.6 gal toilets that flush water thru holes in the underside of the elongated bowl edge. Find even with frequent cleaning ?mold? builds up and brushing causes black flakes to be loosened but openings never become completely clean.
Are there any suggestions for an additive to the tank water, or other approaches to keep the passages clean ?

I don't recommend any "in tank" cleaners. These seem to ruin the rubber and plastic parts. Not sure it is mold (although it could be) but you could pour bleach or 50/50 mixture of bleach and water directly into the hole located under the flapper (after turning off the supply valve and flushing). This is the route the water takes when the toilet is flushed. Let it sit for about 10 minutes and then flush. It will kill any mold. I use vinegar a couple times a year to help with calcium deposits which also form in and around these holes. Using a mirror, I check to make sure none of the holes are completely clogged and if so, a wire coat hanger can help clear them.

if you have never made a mistake, you probably haven't done much.

It's probably mold. I use the big CLOROX bleach pellet in my tak to combat this. As stated, it will do damage to the rubber flapper and other parts over a long period of use but it's a small price to pay for the convenience...

Tried the Clorox pellet some months ago without success. Will give the Dragon's idea a shot; have never found any holes clogged in 12+ years, but frustration sets in.

For Better or for Amnesia

Paige (Rachel McAdams, with Channing Tatum) regresses into a sorority girl.
Kerry Hayes

The Vow, a full-bodied lunge for the heartstrings, has a humdinger of a premise, forcing its characters to face a question that most of us ask ourselves: If you could do the past five years over again, would you live them the same or take a mulligan?

A young married couple, Leo and Paige (Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams), are rear-ended on a snowy Chicago night. He's all right, but she comes to with no memory of the past half-decade. These have been years of significant change. Asking who the president is, she's shocked to discover that it's Senator Obama — and, more shockingly, that she voted for him. Paige remembers being engaged to another man (Scott Speedman) in law school and preparing for a suburban life much like that of her parents (Sam Neill and Jessica Lange) in exclusive Lake Forest. Now she's married to a man she doesn't recognize, estranged from her posh upbringing and working as a sculptor.

With no memories to ballast her to Leo and their life, Paige gravitates back toward the past that she'd jettisoned; Leo is pained, patient and beseeching but privately appalled that the hip free spirit whom he married has regressed into a "sweater set-wearing, mojito-drinking sorority girl," now flirting with the ex-fiancé.

The Vow announces from the top that it is "inspired by true events," but though the film nods to mounting bills and professional stress surrounding the accident, anything resembling the actual pressures of social-economic reality is waved off as significant factors in Paige's decision between lives. No starving artists, Leo and Paige were living the bohemian-bourgeoisie ideal, with a dream loft and cool, promising careers — she pulling in corporate commissions, he running his own recording studio.

Capsulizing the complex differences between Paige's choices into easy-to-swallow forms — and highlighting the "right" choice for the viewer — The Vow makes the least of its concept, refusing to acknowledge that a love need not be perfect to merit holding onto (something the similarly themed Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind understood). The Vow does, however, offer an unobstructed view of charismatic performers, playing people working earnestly at a rather impossible situation. Bullnecked Tatum is about as convincing a studio nerd as Steve Albini would be as an Abercrombie model, but his shy manner around his stranger of a wife is touching — throat-clearing line readings that break down to butting his head against the immovable object of her mental block. After Wedding Crashers and Midnight in Paris, McAdams might seem consigned to representing the horror of WASP aridity, but she brings a bright bemusement to her part that refines Paige's crude dilemma, as though, having lived two stereotyped identities, she's able to find the joke in both. Closes with the Cure's "Pictures of You," and a chorus of sniffling.

Rocks Off Requests Trae On The Box

t this morning's press conference announcing Trae the Truth's civil lawsuit against 97.9 The Box and its parent company Radio One (see previous entry), community activist Deric Muhammad asked the media present to call the station and request Trae's music. Rocks Off asked our rap writer Shea Serrano to do that, and also request some other song he knew the station would play. Serrano called The Box 68 times and got through to the DJ on duty, who did not give her name, three. FIRST TIME Rocks Off: Hi, ma'am. Can you please play "Inkredible" by Trae? DJ [pause]: Gotcha. I'll see if I can get it coming up for ya.SECOND TIME RO: Can you play that "My Chick Bad" song by Ludacris? DJ: Yeah, sure, honey. It's gonna come on after the mix, okay? RO: Cool. Thanks. Serrano's Note: I asked for this because they've been giving tickets away to this Friday's [Arena Theater] show. It ended up being played at 11:34 a.m. THIRD TIME RO: Hey, how come you all never play that song with Rick Ross and Lil' Wayne and Trae? I think it's called "Inkredible." It's really good. DJ: [click]

Snackshot: Dinuguan

This week's interesting Snackshot comes to us courtesy of Gary Wise and Filipiniana.

From the photographer's description:

"Pork cooked in blood, served on traditional cheese bread roll. Delicious, and not what you'd think!"

Dinuguan and other Filipino delicacies like fried fish on rice in chocolate (a.k.a. champorado) can be found at Filipiniana, at 9671 Bissonnet, on the far outskirts of west Houston's Chinatown.

Remember to submit your own photos (of food or anything else) to the Houston Press Flickr Pool. We'll choose our favorite food photo each Monday to be featured here on Eating Our Words.
