I think we are on the same page Kevin...I guess I wrote it wrong and after rereading what I wrote, I can see why you might think that. What I was trying to say was that you have had some people that have treated you in a condescending manor (the guy in Edmonton) and that none of the people that gave you advice here where trying to do that to you.
I hope this clears things up.
Best regards

My long board as I mentioned is home made...it cost me about $15...twenty years ago...you don't need expensive tools to get a straight panel...you need straight tools to get a panel straight. If I feel that my long board isn't straight (and I do hold a straight edge on my board fairly regularly) I machine it to make sure it is straight.
Thanks Dennis, I appreciate your comments.
|I have dealt with quite a few guys over the years that were very mechanically inclined with rebuilding motors, trannys rear ends and could even do a lot of the metal fabricating and welding. But when it came to getting the "bodywork" done they just could not get the hang of it, and most would say is by far the hardest part of the restoration. So I would strongly disagree with the comments made as to anyone can do body work, it just is not true. And like I just mentioned these are guys that can do just about any other type of work or repair on a car. And as far as getting "straight" panels with a 2X4, all I can say is I have made all my own blocks out of hard plastic lexan and if they go out even just slightly you are not getting that panel straight until that tool is trued up again.

I feel that unless you have read each and every one of my post, which I have taken the time to do of yours, you do not have any right to say that I don't offer solutions. I take pride in the solutions that I have offered on this forum. These Forums are to help one another and exchange information, personally I don't care if you worked for 2 restoration and body shops before you where 25 what has that got to do with anything except by your own admission tell me that the people you worked with didn't teach you very much. That would explain why you put body filler over holes in a door that you pulled a dent on. You did a Camaro that won an award, paint can cover a number of sins.
I feel that if there is going to be a viable exchange of information, the information exchanged should be correct information. The experience that people get should be done by receiving correct information, handing a 2 X 4 to someone along with some metal working tools, sand paper and a can of bondo is hardly giving someone good information. All you offered the OP was what happened to you and do you really feel that this is good information? Is this the best information you have? I reread your post, you offered nothing but empty encouragement. As important as encouragement is, it should come along with answers to questions....what question did you answer compared to some of the other members, nothing, but and I quote " any body can do body work" you mention it again in your last post...not everyone can do body work unless doing it wrong and wavy to you is considered body work? You go on to say "Looking at the pictures, the cheapest way to do this is to fix it yourself. You will need to take it down to bare metal and give a skim coat of filler over most of the body panels and then block sand until it is straight. Anything you can feel with your hand will be seen by the naked eye when paint is applied. Nothing too difficult to accomplish here". You didn't offer one tip, not one solution to removing any dent let alone straightening an entire quarter panel when in your previous paragraph on that post you said "Anything up to an 1/8" of filler is an acceptable repair." Where is your good information except mud over the dents, just like a door with holes left in it from pulling a dent, just mud over it and it was the people on this forum that shamed you into welding them up.
You contradict yourself over and over, here's one in the same sentence, "Getting sheet metal straight ain't that hard. Doing it the "right way" takes allot of time and will be hard for a newbie though." What does that mean??? Please explain, is it hard or isn't it? The OP has admitted himself that he is new at this by reading the title of his thread "New to Body work". I'll quote some more of your encouraging phrases, this time from your previous post " As far as spending thousands only to be disappointed I don't think a couple quarts of body filler and some sandpaper are gonna ring up that kind of tab before he knows if this is for him or not. We are talking about knocking out some dents and using some body filler, not rocket science here, anyone with a little positive encouragement can do this." You, "the man", who worked in 2 restoration and body shops before you where 25 years old. Think...the OP takes your advice, buys a can or 2 of body filler (by the way you mentioned 2 quarts, I would challenge anyone to repair to box sides with dents and use 1 quart per side), fills the box side with mud, takes it to a shop, maybe because he feels it's ready for paint , maybe he's not happy with the way it turned out? Don't know, but rest assured, that box side is going to end up in a body shop and unless it's a shop that doesn't care about their reputation they aren't going to do it unless that box side is reasonably straight. No one ever says "look at that average paint job", they always say "look at that really good one" or "look at that really bad one" and the general public rarely looks at a car and says "Wow is that body work ever good on that car". That's why I, as a painter, would not want to paint a vehicle that isn't straight, I respect myself to much. If those box sides aren't reasonably straight, the OP, Kevin, may find himself in a situation where he may need to pay a body shop to get them straight and again, you must know that most often it cost more to redo something than to do it right the first time. That 2 quarts of body filler and sand paper with the step by step tutelage that you have given Kevin could end up costing him well over your estimated thousands. I've seen it when I worked in body shops, I saw it when I worked as a paint rep...it happens all the time. A greater number of people, with guidance can get body filler straight than can get metal straight, getting filler straight is one of the smallest parts of doing body work, getting metal straight is the difficult part and that's the difference between a body man and someone that fills in sins with filler, there is a big difference.
Your final comment says it all, I probably didn't even need to post. Kevin, this is what this man thinks about you and your truck "Let him do his own work if he wants it to look like crap? Really?" Is this the guy that you want to take advice from?
Kevin, Booth Boy offered you some very good advice by doing small sections or starting with smaller panels, getting box sides straight is hard, very often even for a pro. I'm all in favor of people getting in there and working on there vehicles, I encourage it and will help anywhere I can, but seriously, there is a lot more to it than getting a couple of cans of filler, some sand paper and metal working tools and that's all the advice, when you really read his post, "Goldduster 360" has given you.
Again, only with your best interest at heat Kevin.
In my opinion the spirit of a hotrodders forum such as this is to help people out and not discourage them. It's about the friendly exchange of information. How the hell is anybody supposed to get any experience if he is told he can't do it. Anybody can learn to do body work, not everybody has to have an arsenal of high end tools or a fancy garage to do it in either. Not everybody will be a perfectionist at it either. Some have the knack some don't. As far as spending thousands only to be disappointed I don't think a couple quarts of body filler and some sandpaper are gonna ring up that kind of tab before he knows if this is for him or not. We are talking about knocking out some dents and using some body filler, not rocket science here, anyone with a little positive encouragement can do this.
Based on the traditions hot rodding was founded on, you work with what you have, It breaks common sense why somebody would offer comments without solution and be down right discouraging such as tech69.
Let him do his own work if he wants it to look like crap? Really?
Come on guys..............
|you can always epoxy first or use that new evercoat filler which is more dense.
|This is good topic because we need a similar type of product that does not expand under heat like bondo does. people just keep on using the same product. I'm sure the manufacturer does not mind selling us this crap that create's more work for us to do and is basically a half *** product. Sure, it sand's easier and faster but my point being is who really want's this water absorbing sponge CRAP!
|I like his approach of working it and handing it off. That's smart and says a lot about other things he may be doing on this resto. You also never know, maybe it looks good in wet primer and you decide to finish it off. In any case, if the major stuff is worked out this can be no more than a tech getting a 16" and doing a little more sanding and a skim coat. It can cut the work in half. The only time I would disagree with that is if the panel is hammered and you try to get it back in shape. I have thrown fits (all to myself) working other people's stuff but it's usually cause they're goal is to tuck the metal in by all means and mine is to ensure I'm getting the true shape back w/ proper flex. This bed doesn't look like one of those though where it's hammered to that point.
I know. What a joke! But I only trust myself you know because you cannot trust anyone else!

I was fixated on the question, not a solution, I learned something today and thank you again BB.
I'm sure your head's spinning after all this excellent and well meaning advice. Mine would be. Why don't you spend a few bucks and get a gallon of bondo a long board a rattle can of flat black and try a section . If your happy with the results move over a couple of feet and work on that area. If everything looks like camel crap and your going nuts find that shop to finish the job. If the results are close to what you want keep on trucking!
You might find you like and have the aptitude for bodywork. You also might find out you flat out don't like bondo dust in your ears so turn it over to the pro's. If you do fine carpentry I'll bet you'll do ok.
You'll never until you try.
BB ( whose bodywork mostly looks like camel crap but's to cheap to turn it over to the pro's)

One of the things I detest is when people post and make comments about how easy it is, when that fact is that it can be difficult...even for a professional. Pulling dents, may or may not be easy, it depends on the dent, when you pull a dent your not just moving the metal where the dent is, your moving metal around the dent as well and on a 6 foot box side with a lot of dents, your moving a lot of metal. I did a quarter panel on a Cadillac a number of years ago, it wasn't nearly as bad as your box side. I had repaired tougher quarters than this one, but for some reason, it gave me a lot of grief. That type of thing can happen in this trade and in reading the posts, I don't feel that people where trying to discourage you, they where in my opinion being honest with you and coloring within the lines. By the way, 2 X 4 don't make a good block for large flat areas.
Yes, there are people and shops that have that mightier than thou attitude and I don't have much use for them. On that note, I'd be very interested in knowing which shop in Edmonton gave you attitude. When I was repping paint I repped in Edmonton for almost 10 years and know many of the shops there. You mentioned that you might be looking for a shop that would help you finish, perhaps, if you don't have one in mind, I might be able to help you out. If your interested, send me a PM and we can discuss it further. I do honestly respect your initiative for taking this project on and asking for advice.
When your working at getting stellar results in this trade, getting large areas of metal straight is anything but easy...as far as I'm concerned it's only easy if your satisfied by mediocre results. If it was that easy, the old saying comes into play, then anybody could do it.
So if your interested in my offer, let me know.
Best Regards

This morning at 8am, Apple Stores across the country opened their doors to sell the first iPhone 5 phones. As ever, the queues snaked around streets and the excitement among those present was palpable.
There's something magic in the air today. It can only mean one thing - the iPhone 5 is here. It's available to buy across Apple's main territories today, including the UK.
The iPhone 5 has already proved to be an early success, having already netted two million pre-orders within its first 24 hours of availability. Early US reviews of the phone are largely positive too, saying that while it's not a hugely dramatic change, it doesn't derail the series either.
If you want an iPhone 5 but haven't yet pre-ordered one or snagged one on the high street, you may have to wait a little while. As is the norm for iPhone releases, demand has outstripped supply and the initial allotment at the Apple website sold out very quickly. The site currently displays "3-4 week" availability for all iPhone 5 models.
What do you get with an iPhone 5 that you don't get with an iPhone 4S? The main upgrade is the screen. For the first time in iPhone history, the screen is not 3.5in across. It's now a 4-incher, and the phone isn't any wider as a result. The iPhone 5 has gone widescreen, which should help the video-watching and game-playing experiences in particular.
Read our iPhone 5 vs iPhone 4S comparison >
Other new features include a faster processor, a slimmer profile and new metal construction - the glass rear of the iPhone 4S is gone now. Analyst estimates suggest that the iPhone 5 could sell as many as 26 million units this year, potentially outstripping the Samsung Galaxy S3.
We'll be back with our full iPhone 5 review shortly, so stay tuned for the verdict. Want to know a bit more on what it'll offer right now? We've already posted a review of iOS 6, the software that runs the show in the new phone.
The iPhone 5 starts at £529 SIM-free, which will net you the 16GB edition. Like the iPhone 4S, the phone is available in white and black finishes. Although if you've any sense you'll put the thing in a nice protective iPhone 5 case.
Drop us a line with your verdict if you've already picked up an iPhone 5.

However, they cannot be a part of the world championships or the Olympics figure skating competitions. Would you like to see them brought back as a separate sport? Chances are older skaters or those who are not athletic enough or flexible enough to free skate, may do well in this area and would like the opportunity to showcase their skills. What do you think?

Hip-hop show opens for Sublime tribute band
November 29, 2012
The Sublime tribute band, 40oz to Freedom – a group hailed as one of the best Sublime tribute bands around – plays three20south in Breckenridge tonight with Abstract Rude and a crew of Los Angeles-based hip-hop artists. Currently on his Dear Abbey tour, Abstract Rude offers insight into the method and the madness:
An artsy "hoodness" about my style. Tribe Unique adorned me with that name. I ran with it and became that.
My Dear Abbey tour's opening for 40oz to Freedom; 40oz is a Sublime cover band, and we're a hip-hop show with L.A.-based artists like Self Jupiter of Freestyle Fellowship, Beat Dudes Kenny Segal and DJ Zole, plus a couple newcomers from my Keep the Feel entertainment label: Joaquin Daniels and B. Squid.
Atomic Dog, cuz we funky.
Artists should be selfish enough to not compare their work to others. If Jimi Hendrix, Bob Marley, James Brown and Curtis Mayfield rapped, that would be the closest I could think of.
Style and intent. People get that we do it for the advancement of the culture and the spirit of rebel music.
I daresay both, depending on the song. More like hip shaking and head bobbing, mixed with spurts of cray cray. Ha ha.

Driven to despair
As a regular visitor to Europe, I reject Carolyn Butler's complaints about Italian drivers (Traveller Letters, January 19-20). They are faster than us but infinitely more skilful in both road craft and car control, more tolerant of necessary actions by others but highly intolerant of gross stupidity. I have never seen examples of the bullying tactics so often seen in Australia, no closing the gap to prevent merging, no hogging the overtaking lanes, no accelerating to prevent an overtaking move. They do not run over pedestrians on crossings, nor do they stop and issue invitations to cross; equally, pedestrians do not walk blindly onto the road but ensure that they have caught the driver's eye before stepping out. It works to both parties' advantage. Parking is creative. I much prefer driving with Europeans than Australians. It is far safer.

Spreading the word
I recently had my Canon camera stolen by a pickpocket on my first day in Hanoi, Vietnam. I bought a new one, which failed after five days. I was informed by the camera store manager that a replacement warranty only applies for two days from the date of purchase. After a long taxi ride to head office on the outskirts of Hanoi, by which time it was 8pm on a Saturday (but the office was still open), I was ably assisted by an employee who spoke little English but cleverly suggested we communicate via her computer's "translator" program. After a 30-minute discussion via the translator, she agreed to instruct the store to replace the camera. I found the use of the translator ingenious. The downside of this episode is that Canon insists any future repairs be done in the country of purchase. The good news: computer translators are very useful. More bad news: you may have very limited warranty protection if buying an item overseas.

Amazing Americas
After reading Traveller, my wife and I planned a visit to Cuba, Nicaragua and Panama. The trip was a great success and the people in those countries were exceptionally friendly. We never saw so much as a gun or a soldier for the entire trip. Nicaragua was our favourite; Granada, in western Nicaragua, won us over completely with its town-square markets, wonderful Spanish architecture and decorated horses-and-carts. We travelled in a group of six in Cuba, plus guide and driver, and we made good friends. We travelled alone in the other two countries, and again had wonderful guides and drivers. We are both in our mid-70s and we had a ball.

Stars in stripes
After visiting many national parks in India attempting to see the elusive Bengal tiger, I agree with writer Anthony Dennis ("Eye on the tiger", Traveller, January 19-20) that Bandhavgarh is the park most likely to provide that experience. On a jungle drive there, we transferred from a jeep to elephant back and saw two tigers very close by. Another wonderful experience was had at nearby Kanha National Park. We stayed at Kipling Camp (kiplingcamp.com) and rode on an elephant to the river, helping to bathe her and watching her clean between her toes with a stick. Quite magical.

Glad to see things are going well for you and Kohns Gavin
Hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday! The weather here in Tampa was absolutely brutal this year, we got down to almost 40 degrees! While playing paintball, Willie had to wear a beanie for the first time ever, and I even considered putting on an extra TShirt under my jersey! It got that cold! :-)
Anyways, a couple of news bulletins for you-
** The forums are going to be hit and miss until after the first week of January. We are in the process of moving to a new server, AND changing operating systems to make the forums run more effecient and faster than ever. We posted a bulletin that on December 22nd this move would occur, but it seems hardly anyone read it! We are well aware of the error messages that users are getting, we just need another week or two to iron out the last final tweaks of the move, and the forums and website will be back to 100% and better!
** Gavin Anderson, one of the founders of TechPB, has moved on to other projects. Gavin was instrumental with getting TechPB off the ground, but with the numerous other projects he is working on, such as Kohn Sports Lasering, Kohn Sports Paintball Park, Ace Status Jersey & Headband Design, Kohn Sports Annodizing, and Kohn Sports the paintball store, we all came to a mutual decision to part ways. And just to squash any rumors and nonsense, we are still all good friends and everything is great. You will still us playing at his field, you will still our guns getting lasered by his company. We wish Gavin the best of luck in his future endeavours, and if you are interested in getting a gun lasered, getting a team jersey designed, or interested in visiting one of the top paintball parks in Tampa, give Kohn Sports a call at 813-571-0233
** With Gavin moving on, Kitty Wandel has taken over as TechPB's Promotions Manager, any questions or concerns regarding advertising, radio, shows, product reviews, etc please contact her at email@example.com
2010 is going to be a great year for the TechPB Community, we appreciate everyone's support and patience, as we continue to move everything over to the new hosting company. The forums are up in running in limited capacity, but expect some random errors and hiccups as we continue to tweak the new server.
And remember, New Years is amateur night, so be careful if you driving about. If you see a drunk driver on the road, stay BEHIND them, do not pass them and do not pull along side of them, keep them in front of you and keep your distance!
Much love-
The TechPB Team

|Topic Review (Newest First)
I would go with bulbs myself, i like the dimming. I might also look around for a colored bulb, if I could find some with th same mounting leads and wattage size etc. Could be a cool custom look.
Keep in mind that you will need to remove the gauge needles to get the cluster apart to replace the bulbs. Reinstalling them after the repair will require a few things, either a scanner that will move the gauge to a position that you can then install the needle upon so it correlates correctly to the actual reading to be displayed, or you get to take a stab at it and run the engine and put them on in the spot you know they are correct.
You want the fuel gauge to read full if it is, if it is not and you just put the needle on it will never be correct.the same with all the rest of the gauges.
engine temp can be verfied with a infrared temp gun, fuel gauge with a full tank,oil pressure, verify with a mechanical gauge,rpm s verify with a stand alone tach . Get the Idea?
About half of THOSE are out too, as are the ones behind the buttons for the 2wd, 4wd, 4wd-low range etc. All of the ones on the steering wheel are out, most of the ones on the stereo are out as well.
I'm thinking that a buddy builds computers and also builds Ham radios and other electronic stuff, so I'll ask him to do the soldering for me. I think I'll go for LEDs behind all the buttons, (so they last "forever"!) but I'll stay with bulbs (so I can dim them) in the gauges, but LEDs for all the indicator lights (parking brake, seat belt, airbags, glow plugs, yada, yada. yada - I think there is about a "zillion" of those, too!)
U/S is "unserviceable"
What does U/S mean?
Don't get confused by logic.
GM could have used LEDS for about a $1 per vehicle but then how would they get you back to the dealer and charge you 4x more for work after the warranty expires.
By the time the engine wears out you will have replaced the dash 4 times.
They think that promotes product loyalty.
They are soldered to the printed cicuit board. There not real hard to replace.
Be sure to wear a static ground strap while handling the board and when soldering/unsoldering.Perform all soldering/repair on the static matt that you will need to use.Radio shack has them for 25 bucks.
Bulbs can be bought from a few E Bay guys, just look around.
I have also replaced the stepper motors for the gauges.Its all soldering work....so. bone up on the soldering skills.
There are places that repair them just pull it and send them in.
The hardest part about replacing the stepper motors is if you dont have a scanner(like mine) to activate the gauge to say for instance... half scale so you can properly calibrate/install the indicator needle.Replacing the bulbs requires soldering only.
The HVAC head has the same bulbs also.They too need to be soldered.
Be careful trying to get the HVAC control apart, you have to pull the knobs off to split it open, sometimes a few guts come out when you do...
The sliders will be the most trouble.
2006 Silverado dash lights out how to replace them?
I just got myself a "new" truck - a 2006 Silverado 3500 Duramax 4X4
Quite a few of the dash lights (and the ones in the factory stereo and the HVAC controls and (etc) .....) are U/S
Looking on line and checking with dealer - they want to replace the entire dash cluster at a cost of $400.00 or so
Seems the "bulbs" are soldered in and are a part of the overall electronic package. I have also seen some reference to them (potentially) being soldered-in LEDs as opposed to bulbs
Multi-part Q:
Should I try to tackle this myself?
I have seen on-line instructions about how to put in LEDs to replace bulbs, but the article noted that dimming the dash lights would no longer be possible
Should I just put in LEDs anyway (Assuming that I can tackle the whole disassembly and soldering of delicate parts issues anyway!)
Should I just carry a flashlight to see the dash?
And what the bleep was GM thinking when they came up with a dash design where you cannot change a freakin' light bulb?
(and - as an aside - how come so many are U/S on my '06 when they were ALL still working fine on the 400,000 mile '92 that this one replaces?)

text: That's certainly a weird tale. But how the heck did he blast himself in the stomach if he supposedly had control of the shotgun? I hate the state of journalism in this country. The writing is so poor. I had to read it twice before I could tell what happened. And even now, I don't get it. They didn't even try to answer the obvious question. At least say something like: "It is unknown how or why the weapon was aimed at Scott when it discharged."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Review: Bern Macon Hardhat
For people who just cant get a nice fit with an EPS foam helmet these things rock. They technically do not meet some kind of minimum safety rating for snowboarding, but they are still plenty safe for most riders anyway. They did make the rating for water sports.
The Helmet itself has some give to it. You can squish it between your hands and see it flex, this is why they fit so well. They can adapt to your head instead of you hoping the helmet is cut right for you.
They can withstand multiple impacts, which is nice considering you are supposed to replace your helmet after just one impact.
I just am so stoked I found one that fits and keeps the wind off the helmet line. I found other helmets always had a gap on my temples in between the goggles and in front of my ears. These ones have a winter knit liner which is more or less a toque with the top cut off. I say a toque because it hangs a little bit below the brim of the helmet and covers a large part around the ears and back of neck. I found other helmets ear pads felt small, and make wind gaps.
Bern also has a great selection of different liners for winter and summer with audio and a sweet bluetooth audio liner. So yeah he helmet can just have the winter liner taken out and be used in the summer. You don't need a liner for summer with the hardhats but Bern makes visors and other stuff.
This model has venting and a ghetto vent plug for the top holes that is basically an oval shaped piece of foam with a plug glued in the middle that sticks into the middle hole on top. I mean it works fine just kind of funny. The two front vents let in a good amount of air for venting. Might be too much for cold days but it should be easy enough to rig up a DIY plug. Then again there is the hunter liner which is like those Russian hats with the ear flaps and the flap that goes up in the front. Well that front flap thing plugs up those front vents so I guess that's their cold weather solution.
I'd say the best feature is the fit. You forget you are wearing a helmet most of the time. To me they look less dorky than most helmets.
The only con I have is the length of the chinstrap. I got it maxed out and it barely fits me. Gonna suck when I use a neck warmer. Hopefully it packs out a little and gives me a little length, or I can find some extender piece.

say you have italian bee's and your fellow beekeeper down the road has cocasian bee's (or vice versa) and you dont want one of his queens geting into one of your hives
very true, i see everyones point. i guess aswell if the drones are stuck in the hive they would make quiet a mess, unable to do their buisness. but if you wanted to get rid of some drones would it not be a good idea to put it on the front when they are on their early evening flight circling the hives? im just picturing leaving it on for a day or two.... if you didnt need drones in every hive.

Vision. It was Heffering's sixth sense when it came to evaluating, developing, and breeding cows.
Pete Heffering, one of the most visionary animal breeders the world has ever known, passed away on March 3, at the age of 80. Not only did Heffering win the coveted Klussendorf and Curtis Clark Awards for his achievements in dairy circles, he also had been inducted into the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame and Canadian Agriculture Hall of Fame. In 2004, the State University of New York (Canton) also recognized Heffering's unique abilities when it bestowed him with its first-ever honorary doctorate in animal science.
Heffering's achievements in Holstein circles were nearly unmatched. Over the years, Pete Heffering's Hanover Hill Holstein herd earned 144 All-American and 90 All-Canadian nominations which resulted in 31 All-American, 33 Reserve All-American, 23 All-Canadian, and 24 Reserve All-Canadian award winners.
For six consecutive years, beginning in 1983, Hanover Hill was named Premier Breeder at both World Dairy Expo and the Royal Winter Fair. Brookview Tony Charity, the cornerstone, was four times grand champion at both shows and four times supreme champion at World Dairy Expo. The herd also has proven an impressive 177 bulls in Canada - including Starbuck, Inspiration, and Raider.
In 1989, Heffering took his animal breeding talents to horse racing and developed a business that easily matched his famed Hanover Hill Holstein herd. And as any Holstein breeder knows, that is a very big statement.
"His champions won the most coveted races in the sport, including the Little Brown Jug, North America Cup, Meadowlands Pace, Canadian Trotting Classic, Kentucky Futurity, Breeders Crown, and numerous Ontario Sires Stakes events," notes Standardbred Canada.
In 1996 he and his son David opened Tara Hills Stud in Port Perry, Ontario, that is today one of North America's premier Standardbred breeding operations. The Hefferings bred a number of elite Standardbreds, including 2001 U.S. Horse of the Year Bunny Lake, a winner of over $3 million, reports Standardbred Canada.
Heffering was born in New York to Canadian parents. He earned a degree in animal husbandry at the State University of New York (Canton). Peter is survived by his wife Apryll, son David and his wife Nora, and granddaughters Taylor and Abbie. He was preceded in death by his son Richard, who passed away last year. Our condolences go out the Heffering family.
For those who wish to read more about the life of the late Pete Heffering, we have posted a 2006 interview with Pete. The story chronicles his 61-year career that has taken him from the pinnacle of dairy cattle breeding to a new profession as a very successful breeder and owner of standardbred horses.

Ok this is a silly question.
Has anyone ever looked at the _real_ led's?
I know, wierd question right? The reason I ask is that the V8 kit comes with LED's. The leds are the right diameter it looks like, but they are a wierd shape. Not the standard bubble led, but im not sure they made them like that back then, because they were probably done with bubbled glass, and not cast plastic.
Wierd question I know, but I have 8 LED's that I cant help but look at and wonder, why _wouldnt_ they use them, if they were using parts from the kit on evrything else.
Your thoughts?

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Trent Richardson is back at practice on Monday. This is his first practice since the first week of August. It was at that time that Richardson had his knee scoped which put his early season playing status in jeopardy. It's been speculated in the media that Richardson would only see a few carries in Week 1, assuming he were to play at all. Keep an eye on Richardson's injury status as the week progresses.
Fantasy Analysis:
Once Richardson goes through the full practice week, we'll have a much better idea about whether he can play or not. Friday is the important injury report to keep an eye on and it's more or less a lock that he'll be listed as questionable and end up a game-time decision. This is assuming there are no setbacks but the thing to watch is how his body responds to Monday's practice on Tuesday. There might be swelling or some other issue that could cause Richardson to not play at all in Week 1. Either way, it will all unfold this week so don't make final decision on whether to start or sit him until the weekend.

Many of the colors you see on the moldy bread are due to the spores the fungi have produced. Molds reproduce by making spores at the end of stalks that rises above the surface of the bread, giving molds a fuzzy appearance. Spores are like seeds-they spread molds to new places so that they can continue to grow. Spores are usually colorful. Some fungi, such as Rhizopus nigricans (rye-zoh-puss neye-grih-cans) and Aspergillus niger (As-per-jill-us neye-jer), make black spores. Neurospora crassa (new-rah-spore-ah crah-sah) produces spores that appear pink. And the Penicillium (pen-ih-sill-ee-um) molds, the molds that make penicillin, are blue-green.
Some of the colors on your bread may be the result of growing colonies of bacteria, which also sometimes grow on old food. For example, a bacterium called Serratia marcescens (ser-ay-shuh mar-seh-sens) forms reddish colonies. You can tell bacteria colonies apart from molds because bacteria colonies appear smooth while molds look fuzzy.

Yes, they support their governor in his desire to restructure wage and benefit compensation packages for state employees, but members of Mills County's legislative delegation say they also stand firm behind the Glenwood Resource Center and its staff.
The drunk driver that killed four motorcyclists last summer on Interstate 29 has pleaded guilty to four counts of vehicular homicide.
Andrew Schlictemeier, 22, of Murray, Neb., is scheduled to be sentenced March 24 in Harrison County District Court. Under a plea agreement, he faces a penalty of up to 25 years in prison on each of the four counts.

Ask Wilma and Glenn Johnson what's the key to a long, happy marriage you might get a joke. But listen closely and you'll get a little wisdom from a couple who just might know the secret to a long marriage.
"You have to live a long time," said Wilma, with a giggle. "No, you don't take fights to bed with you."
"If you have an argument or a fight, you kiss before bed," Glenn agreed. "You don't carry grudges, that's the key."
"It makes it easy that when he wakes up, he's always in a good mood," said Wilma. "He's a morning person so he sets the good mood for the day."
TABOR - After a first quarter that saw the two teams combine for nearly as many fouls (seven) as points (eight), the East Mills and Fremont-Mills girls match up had the makings of a rugged, good-old-fashioned Corner Conference tussle between rivals.

Aortic valve stenosis ranges from mild to severe. Aortic valve stenosis signs and symptoms generally develop when narrowing of the valve is severe and can include:
The heart-weakening effects of aortic valve stenosis may lead to heart failure. Heart failure signs and symptoms include fatigue, shortness of breath, and swollen ankles and feet.
Aortic valve stenosis often doesn't produce warning signs or symptoms right away, making it difficult to detect at first. You also may not recognize that you're experiencing symptoms. The condition is often discovered during a routine physical when your doctor hears an abnormal heart sound (heart murmur). This murmur may occur long before other signs and symptoms develop.
Depending on the amount of narrowing, an infant or child with aortic valve stenosis may have no symptoms, may tire easily or may have chest pain with vigorous physical activity.
Aortic valve stenosis usually affects adults but can occur in children. Infants and children with the condition may experience symptoms similar to those of adults. If you or your child experiences such signs or symptoms, see a doctor — especially if you or your child has a known heart problem.

Ever since I started posting on the Internet, a question has been floating around about steel cased ammo. I have read many pros and cons about it. And, I have a large quantity of it in various calibers. So, I have often wondered what the real truth was. How will it work in my Mini-14s and a couple of other guns?
Well, I believe that I have found the ultimate answer. This subject may be of interest to you, too. If so, you absolutely need to visit this site.

Ok, found this at Best Buy. I'm thinking it might work for a blinking RF circuit. They are 2 CD box sets with era music from each decade starting with the 50s. I saw someone playing with them and the red blinking LEDs caught my eye. 5 LEDs blinking from left to right. $9.99
You can barely see one of the LEDs lit up at the top of the box
Inside the box is a small aprox 2.5" square by 1" thick plastic enclosure.
I bought 2. Had a hard time figuring out how the darn thing came apart. Then I had an idea.
The backs of them have a battery door cover. They take 2 AAAs.
Here's a pic of it once opened up.
Two screws hold in the circuit board to the case. Remove them and it comes out easy. I just cut the wires to the speaker.
And here's how I'm thinking of wiring it up. I'll disconnect the 5 LEDs from the front of the board. I'll solder in wires from the contacts of those previous LEDs alternating to only 2 LEDs. In theory this would make the 2 LEDs blink with an extra blink on one LED ever 3 blinks. Does this drawing make any sense?
I figure I can remove the push button and replace it with a merc/tilt switch.
Here's a size reference pic.
What do you all think? Like I said I got this at Best Buy. They had a lot of them. I'll post my progress pics if this actually works out ok. If it does I'll be putting it in my hollow DP 95 RF.

Atlanta • The national championship could be decided with a dream matchup between two of college football's most storied programs: Notre Dame vs. Alabama.
Of course, Georgia might have something to say about that.
The third-ranked Bulldogs are eager to wake up some echoes of their own.
Coach Mark Richt's team will take on No. 2 Alabama in a Southeastern Conference title game that essentially serves as a national semifinal. The winner of Saturday's contest at the Georgia Dome will surely land a spot against top-ranked Notre Dame in the BCS title game at Miami on Jan. 7.
While Alabama (11-1) is a seven-point favorite to remain on course for its third crown in four years, Georgia (11-1) wants to carve out its own legacy, something beyond the great teams of the early 1980s led by Herschel Walker.
"We respect and honor those guys that played ahead of us, but we really need to give the fans something else to talk about," linebacker Christian Robinson said. "If that's all we have to talk about, we must not be doing anything special."
A year ago, the Crimson Tide didn't even make it to Atlanta for the SEC championship game LSU won the Western Division but Alabama got a do-over against the Tigers for the BCS title. Even with a resounding 21-0 victory, there are still those who think the Tide didn't deserve a second chance after losing to LSU in the regular season.
If Alabama beats Georgia and Notre Dame, no one can say the Tide didn't earn it, despite an upset loss to Johnny Manziel and Texas A&M.
"There is a lot more pressure, but that is what we like," running back Eddie Lacy said. "You come to Alabama to be in situations like this and play in games like this."
Big Ten
Indianapolis • On Saturday night at Lucas Oil Stadium, No. 14 Nebraska will rely on some of the lessons from losses in the 2009 and 2010 Big 12 title games as they try to claim their first Big Ten crown. It's been such a strange year in the Big Ten that Nebraska isn't even facing a ranked opponent in Indy.
The league's best team, No. 4 Ohio State (12-0), can't play because it is ineligible for the postseason under NCAA sanctions. Resurgent Penn State couldn't play, either, because of the same reason. The only other ranked teams in the league, No. 21 Michigan and No. 22 Northwestern, are in the same division as Nebraska, putting the stumbling Badgers (7-5, 4-4) in the title game.
Charlotte, N.C. • Florida State has no option but to stop the option if the Seminoles want to win their 13th ACC title.
Jimbo Fisher said Friday the key to the Seminoles winning another Atlantic Coast Conference championship and clinching an automatic bid to the Orange Bowl is shutting down Georgia Tech's triple option offense.
The 13th-ranked Seminoles (10-2, 7-1 ACC) are two-touchdown favorites over unranked Georgia Tech in Saturday night's matchup. Still, Fisher knows defending the Yellow Jackets' deceiving offense can be a monumental task if you're not properly prepared.
The Yellow Jackets (6-6, 5-3) averaged 40 points per game during ACC play and their running game ranks third-best in the nation, averaging 323.3 yards per game.
Whatever happens, both teams could be heading for a bowl game.
The NCAA on Thursday granted Georgia Tech a waiver to ensure it would be bowl eligible even it loses and drops to 6-7 on the season.

We have 4 (left) registered Labrador retriever puppies. (This was a litter of 7 - 3 have been sold)
We have 1 female - YELLOW
We have 1 female - BLACK
We have 2 males - YELLOW (one with brown nose, one with black nose)
They have had shots, and wormed.
We are asking $650.
The mother is the granddaughter of 10 time world champion hunt test blood line - Duke of Patten.
We own the mother and the father. Mother, black lab (about 70 lbs.- 2 years old) - Father, yellow lab (about 120 lbs.- 1 1/2 years old). This is their first litter. We are not a breeder.
The puppies were born October 16, 2013. All puppies were born within 6 hours. No problems through delivery or afterward.
All puppies are on puppy food and very energetic. They have been kept inside and are nearly crate trained. They are outside several times per day playing with parents and each other and chasing a ball or glove.
Please see pictures below. We can email more. Our email address is firstname.lastname@example.com and phone number 804.513.4756.
We are very concerned that these puppies go to a good home. Their mother is in training for duck hunting. Great instincts. The puppies would make great hunters or great pets.

text: Gasol traded to Lakers : Grizzlies : Commercial Appeal I don't get this trade. For the Lakers this is a brilliant move and turns them into an instant contender. But what do the Grizzlies really get? A useless Kwame Brown and Javaris Crittenton. That now gives them 3 talented young point guards in either their first or second season. What's the point of that? They also get a couple of first round picks, but this just reeks of tanking to me. The other Western Conference teams must be pretty mad at the Grizzlies for pretty much just giving Gasol away. I know I would be.

Formating output of Modules
I've got an annoying little problem that I was hoping someone can
help me solve. I have a Module, NDelaySolve, which returns a
numerical approximation of solutions to differential-delay equations.
In order to make the output look as much like that of NDSolve as
possible, I have the module return something like
{{x[t] -> g[t], y[t] -> f[t]}}
where g[t] and f[t] are often big Which[] functions. I would like
to reduce the output by creating a DelaySolveFunction[][t] which
looks something like an Interpolating function.
Here is an example:
Format[spam[x_]] := 1/x;
spam[a_] := Module[{},
pop = Table[a,{3}]
{8, 8, 8}
This Format isn't doing what I want. I would like spam[8] to return {8,8,8}
but to print the output as 1/8. If I get this one to work, I could solve
my real problem.

Hello everyone and could someone help me please
I have been living in and working in spain for 2 years and am TEFL accredited. I have been speaking with other TEFL teachers here and we have been hearing a lot of about the Spanish government working towards employing native english people to work as classroom assistants , and wanting to employ native english speakers to teach English in Spanish schools. Has anyone seen anything in the papers or know of a web site we can go to to to find out the information we need? Have been searching the net all day but to no avail.
many thanks for your time
