Neil Walker hit a walk off home run in the 10th inning to give the Pirates a 1-0 victory over the Cubs. #

Second replay in the Cubs / Pirates game, Pirates request. Pick-off play at first called safe on the field. Call over turned, the first I believe. Replay shows the play wasn't close, which justifies the introduction of replay. #

Alex Gonzalez gets a game winning single in the ninth inning to give the Tigers a 4-3 opening day win over Kansas City. #

Cubs squandered a chance to score in the top of the ninth, with a runner on second and one out. Game is going into extra innings. #

Pitching duel in Pittsburgh. Game tied at 0 at the top if the 9th inning. In this game we have had the first use of instant replay, requested by the Cub's manager on a close play at first. The play was upheld. #

James Kendrick: "The launch of Office for iPad has been a big topic recently, and rightly so. Microsoft has proven me wrong with its approach to its office suite for Apple's tablet."
I can't get past the $60 per year subscription fee, despite its features, I don't I think it is worth it at that price because I don't do that much Office document processing on my iPad to justify it. #

Microsoft Office for iPad Review by Paul Thurrott.#

Speaking of which, Office for iPad is free. You are going to hear this a lot, but it is free as a viewer. Frankly, I don't consider viewing documents as "Office," there are plenty of office document viewers out there. In my opinion, a real version of Office is one in which you can create documents, as you can do on a desktop, and in order to do that on an iPad you will have to pay $60 per year. For my needs, I can get by just fine with existing, lower cost products.#

Twitter / frankm: Office for iPad... meh!#

"UpTo works on both Android and iOS, but the company decided to launch on the Apple platform first, because that product is more mature," according to Schwartz. #

David Henson: "In the past 24 hours, we just witnessed the extent evangelicals will go to keep LGBTQ+ people marginalized, to keep an organization from the simple thing of recognizing their already legal marriages. They will starve children. They will deprive impoverished communities of aid and help."#

The gospel of Jesus Christ is never at stake.#

Matthew 22:36-40 It amazes me how people who claim to be followers of Jesus disagree about how to express love. First, and foremost, love is an emotion, one that comes from deep within not just from our heart but also from our bowels. Love is not expressed by telling someone about their sins, nor is it expressed by telling them they need to seek forgiveness. It is expressed by having compassion, putting your arms around them and kissing them. It's expressed by never giving up. #

Looking at my web notes for March 25 makes me realize I did more blogging yesterday than I have in a long time. I think it's totally about the bookmarklet and small snippets of information.#

Detroit News: "A week ago, many were willing to give them up for dead. Others were more delicate."#

Engadget: "A great phone, but no longer a game-changer."#

Matt Miller: "My biggest gripe about the M7 was the lack of detail in the UltraPixel camera. Since that wasn't fixed, I think I'll be skipping the M8 for now."#

I've been keeping my HTC One in a case for the last year, but I've decided to take it out of the case and use it case-less. The result is I feel like I have a new phone! #

Strange thing about the Google Maps background capability released yesterday. When I move the mouse over the map and then use the scroll wheel the map zooms in and out as opposed to scrolling down the web page. I wonder if there is a way to prevent that.#

In my opinion, the fact that the new HTC One is available today is the most exciting thing about today's announcement by HTC. I think they are one of the first Android companies to release a new phone on the same day of the announcement.#

Just read Engadget's HTC One review (2014) and I am not terribly excited by what I see. I am happy with my current HTC One, although I find the Moto X software to be very appealing.#

Jeffrey Kishner has created a way to making comments clear on new ideas. Checking it out. #

Here is something interesting. Fargo 1.50 had issues with rendering in portrait on tablets. It rendered well on smartphones, but had layout issues with tablets. Now with the font changes in Fargo 1.52 the rendering issues have reversed. The rendering looks fine on tablets in both portrait and landscape, but is having problems on smartphones. #

Dave has made changes to the default fonts for noteblogs, so I am checking them out.#

I've learned how to change the fonts here, so I am tweaking them to find a set that I like. #

In other words, the schools and colleges are often just fine with that. Take this in, endlessly, is the basic philosophy of our schools. Create nothing. Listen and learn.#
