Setting up Google Voice Voicemail on a T-Mobile phone

Taken from: http://www.entropyfarm.org/things/google-voice-setup-t-mobile/

As with other things on this site, I’m lazy and hate to run into a problem that requries hours of digging through forum posts for a solution. The following is (probably) what you should do if:

  • You are on T-Mobile in the USA
  • You have an Android phone (this may work with others but I have no idea)
  • You have a Google Voice number with voicemail set up already
  • You want to use Google Voice as your voicemail instead of T-Mobile’s VM

Setup
If all of the above apply to you, the solution is fairly simple:

  1. In a browser, login to your Google Voice account, and click on Settings. In the Voicemail tab, set up your greeting.
  2. On your phone, install the Google Voice App.
  3. From your phone’s dialer, enter * * 0 0 4 * [Your Google Voice Number] #

That’s it, pretty simple.
To disable forwarding, again from your dialer, dial: # # 0 0 4 #

Timeline for new grass

Guidelines:

 

  • Growing season is 6 months in West Texas, roughly April to October (last spring frost to 1st fall frost);
  • Apply 2 – 3 lbs of nitrogen fertilizer per 1,000 ft per year.
  • Spring fertilizer: roughly 6 weeks after last spring frost;
  • For initial application, till fertilizer into the soil with the seed.
  • Mow when grass is 1/3 to 1/2 higher than desired mowing height.

April 1: Till ground, spread fertilizer, spread seeds, water.

May 15: Apply fertilizer that is four to six parts nitrogen, one part phosphorus and two to four parts potassium (16-4-8 fertilizer).

July: Apply additional fertilizer.  Look for slow release.

October 1: Cutoff for autumn ferilizer

Bacon Wrapped Cream Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast

Prep time
15 mins
Cook time
35 mins

An easy, but elegant main dish! The chicken is moist, the flavor superb and the bacon a perfect wrapping!
Serves: 4 large servings
Ingredients

2 Boneless skinless chicken breast
4 tablespoons cream cheese
¼ cup Pepperjack cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons green onion, chopped
4 to 8 pieces of bacon

Instructions

Cut chicken into 4 equal size pieces. Pound breast so it is about ¼” thick.
Mix together softened cream cheese, chopped green onions and shredded pepperjack cheese. Put ¼ of this mixture into the middle of each piece of chicken.
Starting at the long side, roll chicken breast up, keeping the cheese mixture to the middle.
Wrap 1 to 2 slices of bacon around the chicken breast, secure with toothpick, if needed.
Place on baking sheet and back for 30 minutes at 375 degrees F.
Broil topside for about 5 minutes to fully brown and crisp bacon. Turn each breast over and broil for another 3 minutes or so to crisp up the bottom side.
Serve immediately.

Notes
* One piece of bacon wrapped around each breast is enough. But 2 pieces of bacon for each breast fully wraps the chicken and is outstanding as well.
