This part works with the following brands: General Electric, Kenmore, Hotpoint.
This part works with the following products: Refrigerator.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
First, I removed all items on the door shelves and the shelves themselves to reduce the weight of the door. Second, I removed the cover on the top hinge assembly and removed the two screws that secured that hinge. Third I lifted the door from the bottom hinge assembly and placed the door horizontal on the kitchen table to all easier access to the bottom of the door. I then removed two screws holding the door closing cam and shim and replaced them with the new parts. Next was to removed the old hinge assembly on the refrigerator itself and replace it with a new hinge assembly. All down hill from this point. Time to reinstall the door, aligning the bottom of the door cam over the hinge assembly and setting the door down on it making sure the door sets on the hinge assembly cams. To the top of the refrigerator. reinstalled the top door hinge assembly and cover, job complete. Total time from start to finish including cleaning the inside of the door and shelves about 30 minutes.As for the replacing of the light lens in the freezer section. This was almost to easy. I removed the ice drawer from the freezer which exposed the one phillips screw that holds the lens in place. Removed the screw and what was left of the old lens, inserted the new lens from the underneath the ice drawer compartment and screw, replaced the ice drawer and, the task was complete. Total time about 5 minutes.

Our refrigerator is a double door unit with ice and water in the left door. The right door was the one with the problem. It was 5:15 AM when the problem occured. I could see that the door was out of alighnment and had dropped down - preventing it from closing. I lifted the door and closed it. I wrote down the model number and found a detailed drawing of the appliance on the web site "partselect.com". When the hing earrived I compared it to the broken one. I removed all the food stored on the door, put several pieces of wood under the door to shim it to the same height as the adjacent door. I then removed two bolts from the refrigerator with a 1/4" socket set. I put the shim from the old hing aside for later. I removed two bolts from the door with the same socket -Note a metal tab had to be bent silghtly so the wrench could go on the head of the bolt- I removed the plastic cam and made note of its orientation and that of the shim above it on the door. I put the shim and new cam in place on the door and installed the 2 bolts. I inserted the pin of the new hing into the hole in the cam (I had just mounted) on the door. I put the shim (the one put aside earlyer) behind the hing and replaced the two bolts. I held the shim and hing up against the door as I tightened the two bolts. When I was satisfied that the bolts were tight I removed the wooden blocks that were holding the door up so the door was supported by the new bottom hing assembly. The door now opperates perfectly and the refrigerator was not taken out of service for the repair. Total time including cleanup was a little over 15 minutes.
This is a sibe-by-side refrigerator/freezer that needed a new lower hinge set for the fridge door.First I removed everything from inside the fridge door, closed it, then loosened the top hinge bolts with an 8mm socket on a 1/4-inch ratchet. Using an 8mm nutdriver, I removed one bolt and loosed the other just far enough to be able to lift the hinge and swing it out of the way. (These bolts are long. The nutdriver is faster than the ratchet but you need a ratchet or a wrench to first break them loose.) Then I just lifted the door off the bottom hinge and set it aside. The plastic lower front grill was covering the lower hinge but that grill is just held at the ends by spring clamps -- popped off easily so I could get to the hinge bolts. Again, 8mm bolts, just remove & replace hinge. I also had to replace the upper half of the door closer cam, which is screwed to the bottom of the door, being careful that the holes lined up: cam, shim, door holes. Now the tricky part was lifitng the door back on the lower hinge. (It helps to have an assistant at the bottom to locate the hole for you.) Once the door was up, I swung the top hinge over, ran the two bolts in finger tight with my nutdriver, checked & adjusted the spacing* of the fridge door and tightened the bolts. This was all very easy! (*^_^*)*On a side-by-side, you'll want the door to be straight up & down with a consistent gap top to bottom with the freezer door. The hinge has some slack for adjustment by positioning the door, then tightening the bolts. You'll see what I mean.
Simple job, empty the door shelves, remove top hinge, lift door off bottom hinge, remove bottom hing. The reassembly is the reverse, with a little cleaning along the way and a little white lithium grease on the hinge pins and cams.
Changed the door stop and hinge assembly. Door works perfectly.
I used the same steps as described in other descriptions listed here. Since I was changing the hinge assembly on the freezer side the difference I discovered was that there was a nylon water hose inside the hinge assembly that I did not at first know how to remove. I finally called a repairman I happened to know and following his instruction simply snapped the hose loose where there was a connector and placed a cloth under it to catch the moisture that drained. Having done that, the rest of the assembly went just the same way as the other instructions listed here said that it would. Door now functions like new.
I supported door with 2* 6 scrap wood. I used cedar shingles to raise door to correct height.Using a socket wrench, I removed the hinge from the fridge and the cam assembly from the door.I installed the new hinge and cam using the shims thatwere behind the original parts.I removed the 2*6 supports and the door now works perfectly.
Shut off water and disconnected at factory joint at bottom hinge. Unplugged the electrical at the top hinge. Removed the door and installed new bottom hinge and cam assembly. Reinstalled the door and hooked water and electric back up. Part worked fine.
I had to replace the cam risers on the freezer door. The water line goes up through the hinge that has to be replaced. I turned off the water to the refrigerator, took off the bottom grill of the fridge, and unscrewed the water line (very easy). Then I unscrewed a piece that holds the water line to the fridge. All the pieces had to be off the waterline, so I had to get the joint off the waterline and the metal holder, and the spring piece off - it was pretty easy. Then I had to unbolt the top hinge bolts, pick up the freezer door and completely remove it - lifting it high enough that the water line came free from the lower hinge. I layed the door on the floor. I replaced the cams and replaced everything in order. One extra thing I learned is to make sure that when you tighten the upper hinge back on, be sure to align the door - the screws are set in such a way that you can tip the door to the left or to the right to make sure the two doors arent rubbing on each other. At first, the door didn't shut on its own - we had to push it, but within 24 hours of use, the door would shut on its own without the extra push.I also replaced the handles on the doors. I even looked on line to figure out how to do this - I don't know if my situation is different - but nothing online helped me. There are these (on my fridge) decorative white strips that are above and below the handle - beyond the pieces that actually hold the handle in. The decorative white strips have to be removed in order to remove/replace the handles. I thought the top cap would pop off or something - they dont. They're screwed on with a hidden screw. When you unscrew the piece that holds in the handle - if you can ease it out, great - but the white strips pop out, and have to be removed in order to get the new handles in. You have to gently put something inbetween the white strip and metal that holds it in and ease it out - straight out toward you. Once you pop out those strips - the rest is easy and self explanatory.
First I propped up the door. Then I removed the 2 screws that hold the hinge on. AT this point you do need someone else because the door swings loose. I attached the new bracket and lowered the door. It went verey smooth. I ordered the new bracket after reading the installation stories from others who just repaced the plastic pieces. Its worth the extra money to just put on a new bracket
I emptied everything from door compartments.I removed the top cover of the door pivot with a phillips screwdriver. I removed the two screws that that hold the pivot bracket with a 8 mm socket. Lift the door off the bottom pivot bracket. Remove the old bottom pivot bracket with an 8mm socket and replace it with the new cam bushings.You must replace both bushings on the bottom of the door and on the bracket that mounts to the base of the body of the refrigerator. Reinstall the door and screws .The doors should be level with each other if they are installed properly.If not check the freezer door .The bushings may be worn on that door also.
Was able to pull the door up to the normal position, then blocked in place with 2 2x4's. Easily removed the hinge assemble and the door closing cam, which had broken in two.bolted on the replacement parts in 10 mionutes and the door was a good as new: peice of cake!!!
I propped up the door with 2x4 and shims to be level with the freezer door. Then removed the 2 screws holding the hinge to the main unit. Then removed the 2 screws holding the cam washer to the door.Replacement was the reverse of disassembly. Be sure to tighten screws almost tight until both pieces are located correctly then fully tighten. Lift up refrigerator door slightly to remove shims and wood block.I did the replacement myself but was nervous that the door would fall off the block and shims. I recommend having another person hold the door closed during the process.
Removed door contents to lower weight (good time to clean/disinfect door compartments), blocked and shimmed door up to correct fininished height. Removed lower hinge components (make sure shims positions are noted). Replaced w/new components and removed blocking. Easy job, should have done sooner.
First, I removed all items on the door shelves and the shelves themselves to reduce the weight of the door. The door came off by itself because the bottom hinge had broken. Then I placed the door horizontal on the kitchen floor to have easier access to the bottom of the door. I had a piece of blanket under the door to prevent any scratch. I then removed two screws holding the door closing cam and shim and replaced them with the new parts. Next, I removed the base grill to have easy access to the old hinge assembly on the refrigerator itself. All I had to do was grab it firmly at either end and pull it forward. I replaced the hinge assembly with the new one. I removed the cover on the top hinge assembly and removed the two screws that secured that hinge (I was not able to put the door back without removing the top hinge assembly). All down hill from this point. Time to reinstall the door, aligning the bottom of the door cam over the hinge assembly and setting the door down on it making sure the door sets on the hinge assembly cams. To the top of the refrigerator. reinstalled the top door hinge assembly and cover (I had to make sure the door was standing straight vertically before I tightened the nuts), I also put a small amount of white grease into both the top and bottom hinges.

I'd prefer a .22 for the inexpensive ammo....but, it could be what ever caliber. My number one criteria is for it to be as light as possible. Of course, reliability would be good too.

I'd prefer a .22 for the inexpensive ammo....but, it could be what ever caliber. My number one criteria is for it to be as light as possible. Of course, reliability would be good too.
What are my options?
taurus pt-22/beretta bobcat about 12 oz
The Kahr P380 weighs9.97 ounces (w/o magazine) and is a more favorable caliber (.380) than a .22 or .25.
Keltec P-32 at 6.6oz unloaded.
Keltec P3AT at 8.3oz unloaded.
Ruger LCP at 9.4oz unloaded.
Taurus 738 tcp (380 cal) at 10.2oz unloaded.
Smith and Wesson Bodyguard 380 auto at 12.3oz unloaded. (Very thin gun...easily concealed in pocket. )
Out of all these and the ones mentioned, I would go for the Kahr 380...much better trigger than all of these.
Runner-up is the Ruger LCP tied with the Bodyguard, then the Beretta 21 and finally the KelTec's.
The Kahr is more money but its worth it.
I own the S&W Bodyguard and it is really great to carry as a pocket gun...I don't even feel it in my pocket most of the time. The trigger is a bit hard, but you can dry fire with it...a big plus.
For pure weight, though....the Keltec P-32.
If this is for self-defense, buy good ammo, such as Federal Premium HST or Hornady XTP or Winchester T-Series.
Thanks, guys! That Kel Tec P-32 looks like the ticket, for me. I'd like to buy used if possible. However, with a little poking around on the Net, I see that there were some reports of problems with these....perhaps with early models, I don't recall. What should I look for if buying a used P-32?
I believe that the "lightest" is not necessarily the "best" for you.
You shouldn't buy a gun because it "lightest" or "cheapest" for a carry gun.
It's supposed to save your life.
I'd suggest you shoot each of the guns your considering.
And I mean shot them a lot ...
Some of the guns you are considering are of different quality .
Kel-tec's reputation was damaged by their early production. Current production is supposed to be quite good. They don't looks particularly finely made, especially when compared to a Ruger or a Sig, and that, I believe, has helped keep the early production reputation in force. But everything I've read or hear about the current production indicates that the problems of the past are in the past.
The P-32 has variously be rated as very good, or the best of the Kel-tec line. There is a Kel-tec-specific website and they have more information there. The O.P. will have to Google "Kel-tec forums" to find that as I don't recall the address.

ATLANTA, Ga -- The first stop of the Big Orange Caravan took place at Atlanta's Park Tavern on Monday night. Butch Jones is the veteran of the caravan, taking part in his second event while new men's basketball coach Donnie Tyndall is making his debut less than three weeks after being hired at Tennessee.
Jones had some advice to Tyndall as he prepared to meet a passionate fan base in Georgia.
"Enjoy every minute of it," Jones said. "It part of his whirlwind tour that going on. Every day, you can't the amount of hours of into it, but enjoy this journey, because it goes by fast."
Being the veteran, Jones can offer insight to Tyndall.
"This is a great way to come out and be with our great fan base and the support they can give us," said Jones. "They are one of the reasons that makes Tennessee very, very special."
Pig Howard UPDATE
Butch Jones gave the latest update on rising junior wide receiver Alton Pig Howard, who has been away from the team during spring football. It is possible that Howard could return to the Vols, and Jones is hopeful of a resolution in the coming weeks.
"We will still make a decision," said Jones. "We have laid everything out for Alton Howard. We have some prerequisites and requirements that need to be met. I have met with him a couple of times.
"I would say within the next couple of weeks (we will have a decision). The big thing for him -- if he is back -- and all roads lead to that right now, but we will see how that materializes. We would like to get him back here for summer. There will be some requirements led by our players' staff. Alton knows that and he's aware of that and he's done everything we have asked him to do up to this time."
Basketball coach Donnie Tyndall spoke publicly about the newest member of the Vols, JUCO transfer Kevin Punter, who averaged 20.3 points per game at State Fair Community College in Missouri last season.
"Kevin has proven himself to be a profile scorer," said Tyndall. "He can drive it, he can handle it, he can get to the foul line. He's a pretty solid shooter from behind the arc.
"He's excited to be at Tennessee. He had a great visit this past weekend signed right away this morning. We want guys that want to be here and certainly he's one of those."
Tyndall also addressed the news of the day that included sophomores A.J. Davis and Darius Thompson asking for their releases from their scholarships at Tennessee.
"Darius and A.J. have asked for they release to explore their options," said Tyndall. "As I have said with the other young men, that decided not to attend Tennessee, we want guys that want to be here. In either case, I don't think tees guys have made their minds up to not come back, the door has been left open. We hope they come back. But at the end of the day, if they need to be comfortable with the rest of their career."
Tyndall is open their return, but wants what is best for the individuals.
"The biggest thing is that it is about the student-athlete," he said. "I could be a guy that says, we won't release you, I don't think thats far to the student-athlete or their family. I certainly have encouraged them to come back. I need to do what is in the best interest of those young people."
Tyndall is no stranger to roster attrition.
"When I took over at Southern Miss, we had four returning players in the locker room and yet we when on to win a school-record 27 games. We will be working to do the same thing here."

I am concidering taking the TEFL certificate course at UNITEFL in Chiang mai. I hear that it is a very good course and is highly regarded. But what I would like to know is if it is possible to get a job directly after completion, or do people have to leave the country then apply for a visa to be able to teach in the country?
I hope this was clear.
Also is UNITEFL in Chiang Mai really all that?
Thank you

Discussion in 'Great Skate Debate' started by reese, Nov 19, 2013.
Withdraws from Sectionals
Sad! From the article it sounds like it's not due to injury. She is burned out and doesn't want to compete anymore. It's almost like 'end of an era'. She will make a fabulous exhibition/pro skater.
Not surprising but still sad.
That's a shame. I wish her well.
If anyone would like to send Alissa a message of support: http://figureskatersonline.com/alissaczisny/site/contact/
This is her official FB fan page: https://www.facebook.com/alissa.czisny
IMHO, she could have saved her sponsors' money, her coaches' time and effort and saved herself a year of agony had she accepted her fate when diagnosed and retired.
So sweet! Please be sure to send her a message of support.
What an attitude, PairSk8Fan
I don't share your interpretation - from the press release:
"It's a tough decision for me not to compete at sectionals this week. I've given my very best to make a full recovery and a successful comeback to competition, but I'm simply not yet completely prepared to be competitive. I've made great progress, and all the elements are returning, but it's been slow and I cannot rush the process without risking further injury.
... It breaks my heart that I will not be competing this season."
That is very disappointing. I hope she has a successful show career.
"She's one of the most exquisite skaters of all time"
-Dick Button
One year is tiny compared to a lifetime of what-ifs. And you act as if her coaches were victims. They were compensated for their time and have no reason to be upset, nor do you, for that matter.
It definitely sounds like the injury held her back this year. She must be devastated. Hopefully she has a strong support system and can talk to other skaters who went on to live healthy, happy lives despite never making the Olympics.
I think it's pretty clear that Alissa loves to skate. While qualifying for the Olympics was clearly her goal, I don't think there's anything wrong with her making the attempt to come back from injury, even if it was a long shot.
I'm not sure I agree with the poster who said she sounded burned out. Senior ladies at mids was shaping up to be very competitive, and it sounds like Alissa was not in the form she wanted to be to have the best shot at qualifying for nationals. Better to withdraw than to not qualify, at this point in her career.
Yeah? Why? Because I would not wish the year of physical and emotional agony she went through on anyone?
Skating fans are totally selfish and greedy. Most of you just could not give up wanting to see her skate, even if it meant she would be suffering.
I think the way your phrased it, with her well-being being the last concern made it seem a bit heartless; though perhaps you didn't mean it that way. Her sponsors weren't withdrawing their money, so clearly they didn't think it was wasted, and her coaches weren't doing this pro-bono (or at least they aren't usually) so their time wasn't wasted, it was paid for. Saving a year of agony is the only reason to wish she called it quits sooner.
I must have rushed when I read it, and must have skipped this portion.
Wishing Alissa a long and injury-free professional career in skating, if that's what she wants. She is exquisite. Wishing her a happy life wherever it takes her.
I'm sad but I wish her the best and hope she gets some great show skating opportunities.
I can't blame her for trying again and again for a long time until she was convinced that she can't be competitive.
It isn't for you to judge my motives.
All the best Alissa.
Although everyone else is letting your "go f%ck yourself" insult slide, I just can't do the same. Anger issues much?
Stop feeding the loser, people.
"ending season" doesn't read "retiring" to me. She says she was getting better but not fast enough. I assume she is not giving up coming back to competition in the future, i.e., next season.
I was hoping for the fairy-tail ending, but She's been nothing but an ambassador for resilience and perseverance. I hope she returns back to competition in a year or on to end her career in her own terms.
This. Alissa has had a great career, so I hope she doesn't feel any sense of regret looking back on her competitive career if this indeed was her final year (it may not be if she wishes to continue). I know she didn't make an Olympic team but she has represented the US so well over the years in other major competitions. She should be proud of herself.
Uncertain is what she says. My guess is we've seen the last of her competitively, especially since she emphasized wanting to continue skating by performing in shows, but I suppose she might attempt to come back. I highly doubt it though.
Ignore the troll and it will go away.
sorry, deleted
You really are onto something with this whole saving oneself effort and agony. As such, PairSk8Fan, meet my Ignore list. Ignore List, please meet PairSk8Fan.

Posts Tagged 'satin stripe prom dress'
The Monochrome Set
June 8th, 20110
When Dannii Minogue was pregnant last year, her first outing after she made the anouncement publically, was to the National Television Awards. She looked absolutely stunning. The dress she chose was a strapless black and white prom style dress with big bold stripes which she wore with red heels. In May of this year Suzanne Shaw of Emmerdale fame attended The British Soap Awards. She too wore a black and white bold striped prom dress, accessorised with a wide black patent belt.
Never one to miss a trend, Bravissimo's own clothing label Pepperberry, have a near identical dress that you can buy in store or online. Monochrome makes a loud and clear fashion statement, so is a brave choice for an event. It also suits everyone, whether your hair is blonde, red, brunette or black. It is very easy to accessorise, just choose a colour and buy matching clutch, shoes, necklace and cardi and your done!
Also black and white is suitable for an evening do or daytime event, so it won't be left in your wardrobe gathering dust. You could wear it to a Wedding, then dress it down the following week with a denim jacket and ballet pumps and wear on a night out with the girls.
So don't miss out on this lovely frock. It's called the Satin Stripe Prom Dress, The bodice is boned, it has a tulle skirt, the belt is optional and the real clever part, it has detachable straps so you can wear it with or without straps. This dress is a must have this Summer, and if you like the monochrome trend, we have much much more from Pepperberry.

I have the white vinyl Don Post helmet and have it painted and the T-Visor area cut out and made the proper shaped T-Visor for it. But because I moved I put it all in a box and a year later my helmet is deformed! HELP!
The face is totally wonky and I tried supergluing the visor in but it looks horrible. I Had to remove it and clean it all up. Ive seen some people use a metal rod to keep the mask in shape but what do you use to adhere the rod to the inside of the mask? Ive sanded the inside to give it grip but no way in hell will hot glue work on a hot day. Suggestions please and if you can post photos of how you did yours that would help. I am guessing I will have to dremmel the thickness of the T-Visor area of the mask down so I have a flat surface for the visor to attach to.

Hey guys,

Hey guys,
anybody know how to reach Cookiemongoloid ? I purchased an item form him a month ago, but can't get a hold of him now. Looks like he's not checking his pm's.
But he was logged onto the Forum just yesterday. I'd really report this guy to the Mods and ask them to ban future sales from this guy. You are having the same problem with his "quick to accept payment", delay,delay, delay, several weeks before he ever mails anything out that several of us that have done business with him have experienced. He ignores my e-mail request for updates on shipping update also, 6 weeks after my purchase.
File a PayPal claim. That usually gets the ball rolling. :rolleyes
well, i tried to avoid all this,
but as HMPOTC33 already stated, I'm experiencing the same thing. I bought an ESB Flightsuit from him in November and I'm getting nothing but a runaround. As suggested I filed with paypal, only to find out now that this fine individual waited til the last day to respond to paypal and to have the nerve to tell paypal he partially refunded me money and would look up his receipts!!!! WHAT!? First of all I got no suit, and getting jerked around, and now he's doing the same thing to paypal! Nice.
Other members had no problems getting stuff to me in no time at all, and this gent wants to tell me he mailed out the suit long time ago. To this day, I don't have any info if, when and where the suit was mailed. Cookiemongoloid I suggest you solve this quickly now and show proof that you mailed it.
In his pm's I got he makes nothing but conflicting statements.
Here is a pm that I got today from him:
Is this guy for real? He's saying he mailed it, got no proof to show that he ever had a suit, no proof to show that he ever mailed it, he told paypal that he refunded me money, which he never did, again no proof to show that he ever did. And he's got the nerve to tell me that I'm trying to scam a suit out of him! GROW UP AND FACE REALITY! You never send anything, so either settle this or face the consequences, online fraud is a federal offense, just so you know it, PAL!Quote:
I'm tired of hearing this. I'm starting to believe that you are either a scammer, or gave me a wrong address. The suit was sent, and you should've received it. But that is SUCH an easy story "I paid for it, and I never got it." Fortunately for me, I've been a member here for about 3 years, and I'm known for being consistent. Look, if you're just trying to get a free suit off of me, just give up. Online scamming is wrong, and you won't get away with it. So please, just stop the insanity. Thank you.
Do you think I don't have anything better to do, with my life!?
And what is that nonsense about giving you a false address. How stupid do you think I am? Do you think I don't know where I live, do you think that my paypal address is wrong for 10 years? Makes me wonder how all the other folks were able to get the stuff to me with a wrong address.
You are not even man enough to come forward.
That is a bummer man, I had the feeling this place would be a safe environment to buy items for my Boba. I bought a helmet recently which has not shown up yet, hopefully it will be fore I feel the need to name names etc. Good luck with your Fett.
I purchased a recasted Mystery helm from him that he got off ebay. I had no issues with him, he even sent me a copy of "the good, the bad, and the ugly" cause he felt bad for having waited too long to send it out.
Now, TBH, I did talk to him, and he told me that he did send this out to you. From what I gather, is that he sent it out, made a mistake with the shipping (not sure exactly what) but it was sent back to him, and then he say's he fixed the shipping issue said above. He told me that you were in Germany. My roomate who used to run a paintball company/website ALWAYS had issues sending things internationally, using different services. Now, Im not saying that it dosnt work, cause I have sent item's to australia, but every now and then, items sent across the ocean can get lost in the system.
I can acount for cookie's honesty. I know that he will not cheat out on anyone when it comes to selling items. I cant tell you how many times he wanted to get rid of that flightsuit, so I honestly cannot believe that he would scam you over with this.
I'm getting so tired of people constantly blaming the postal system for their own failure. THE U.S. is not a third world country and neither is germany. I'm getting 250 packages on average a year. And none get lost. It always turns out the same, that stuff was never sent or it was sent LATE after complaints were made. And yeah a mistake with shipping was made, he didn't sent it! Otherwise it would have been here long time ago. As far as his statements and pm's are concerned, hot air.
Volkerc, you are absolutely right, there is no excuse for not delivering an item in a timely matter. but if there is a reason, then it should be a good one, maybe it's your Job, I.E. Police, Medical, or such, you would not belive how easing it would be if people in this forum posted thier profession in the "My Helmet Section" of this web page. (some choose not to devulge their in formation, and that in itself can be alarming, case in point am I to assume you don't work and you have nothing but time on your hands to sell stuff and ship it all day? of course not, but if you don't tell me about yourself then how am I to know?) that way it might help us understand as to why a package might not have arrived on time, Don't just blame the post office or countless emergences for delays, but rather just tell the truth, Example: Work Hours or such. but when I do send the item I will PM the Tracking No# ASAP and stay in contact to ensure you get it.
Now don't get me wrong but If there is an unforseen event, then post it in a thread, instead of leaving Admin and Members guessing what happened? PM ing the individual WITH EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE will only buy you time and not resolve the issue. If it's too personnel then maybe you should contact Admin and let them know so, that way can contact the person you're dealing with to help on the issue at hand.
I know I'm not the only one thinking this, so please chime in I'm sure some of you have thoughts on this matter that I may have missed.
Good Luck C
Sending death threats doesn't help the situation, volkerc. Volkerc actually had the nerve to threaten me via PM. I explained that the suit was sent to you, and was sent back to my house due to a marking error being that YOU ARE IN GERMANY. I am a college student out of the city, and had no idea that the suit was sent back to my house until later. As soon as I realized what had happened, I had my poor grandmother go to the post office and send the suit out again. Why do you hide the facts from the forum, volkerc? Why don't you explain to the entire TDH what's REALLY going on? I've never screwed anyone out of their money here. Pennywise is absolutely correct... Why would I go out to scew people after being screwed myself? That's senseless. I told you I'd be willing to refund you 50% of the suit for the mishap, but you threw it in my face and claimed that I'm now trying to cheat paypal. That's impossible! My paypal has been suspended on account of you reporting me after a week delay! And please cease your threats. You as well as I know, that is uncivil and unnecessary.
Making up stories as you go along, aren't you! You are the worst of all individuals that I ever had to deal with. And who's hiding the facts here? Fact is that we are approaching week 7 and there is no suit. You are a waste of time and a liar. Why don't you show paypal the proof that you send a refund, cause you can't, you never paid anything back. And what's that with my "poor old grandmother" thing? Is she responsible now for your failure?
And as far as refunding money is concerned, why are you lying again? You send 2 pms, one offering me $10 one offering me $40. How does that come out to 50 % when the amount paid was $110? And my response was that i don't want any money back, that i wanted the suit! And to this day I'm still waiting for it. And after such a long wait i filed with paypal, because you simply are not a man of your words. And if you claim not be in town, and you can't fulfill the deals you made yourself, i suggest that you do not offer anything for sale at all. People like you make me sick! Others here were able to get stuff to me that they had to build first in way shorter amount of time, and you sit there hiding behind your keyboard, with a big mouth, with no proof of anything. You need to see a doctor, cause you my friend have issues.
This is now locked and the admin are looking to it.

Comments about oreilly Unix Power Tools, 3rd Edition:
The quality of the information in this book is on a par to none imo. This book wlll teach you so much, and there is so much to learn. Probably proof of the adage 'it's about the journey, not about reaching the destination'. It is all really well explained, but it's going to take practise to make perfect. You will need to invest time to make this second nature. A great book. This is one of those classics you just have to have in your collection.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not for everyone but something for everyone
By silentsoldier
from Undisclosed
I just *bought* a copy of the second edition to this book. I say *bought* because I paid $0.50 for the darn thing, along with a copy of 'understanding the linux kernel'. Total--one dollr! The great thing about this book is that it is well written, the binding is excellent, so a user can get years of use out of it until the next editon comes out and the structure and outline is great--done in a *link* style, where you can jump around from one article to another, thanks to the authors including the subsections at the top of each page. Most authors don't think about the ORGANIZATION of the information they present but these guys have. You can jump around easily when a subject is mentioned in an article that may be related but not explained in the current article your reading--you don't have to read straight through and, in fact, the authors discourage this.My only real problem is that not enough time is spent explaining how the programs 'think'--I think this is the true basis for becoming a power user. Some programs are explained, like the shell and the find command but most are not. Again, I have the 2nd edition and maybe they've changed this, I don't know. Otherwise a very good great book!

Great Book, but where are the example files?
By PETERV
This is a great book, even for Unix beginners. You should have some programming background, but the examples are clear and concise. There are a lot of practical examples that can be used straight out of the book. The only complaint I have is that it refers constantly to a companion CD that doesn't come with the book, and refers to a website for file examples, "www.oreilly.com/catalog/upt3" that should actually be "http://examples.oreilly.com/upt3/". I'd still prefer to see examples on the CD, but this is an essential reference for anyone working with Unix.

Not for beginners
By Jdaigle
I'm not a fan of this book. It is poorly constructed, disappointingly brief even on subjects that are "extensively" covered (such as awk, sed, perl, vi), doesn't contain a good list of Unix commands, and in general isn't worth the two slots it is taking up on my safari bookshelf. If you are already fairly knowledgable on a topic and are just looking for a hack, maybe this would work for you, but if you actually need some information about how a utility works, what it does, and how to use it in a general sense, there is no information in this book at all.

Unix Power Tools, 3rd Edition Review
By Olivier Wulveryck
This is one of the best book i've ever read about Unix...This is the definitive handbook you must have when you work under any version of Un*x.The introduction made of certain tools is more complete than some other dedicated book.
By aLEXANDER zaRETSKY
Being a ten year user and a five year Unix / Linux admin, all I can say, tthis is a must have for a Unix admin and user.

The permanent exhibit highlighting the Chinese diaspora in America is slightly text-heavy, but there are plenty of interactive features to keep the kids engaged. Mini history buffs can hold an iron from an early-20th-century Chinese-owned Laundromat and examine the Heritage Chinatown Shop, a showcase of an old general store displaying objects—including specialty Chinese goods—recovered from Chinatown stores in U.S. cities. Tweens and parents will be interested in watching the interviews with New York Times journalist Jennifer 8. Lee, designer Anna Sui and others from MoCA's video archive. At the end of the exhibit is a large map on which visitors can use red thread to trace their family's journey to the United States. All ages.

ARSC HPC Users' Newsletter 269, May 23, 2003
- Cray X1 Installed at ARSC
- SX-6 Memory Requirements for Parallel Jobs
- Watch your OpenMP Environment
- Quick Tip
Cray X1 Installed at ARSC
Yesterday afternoon, ARSC's two cabinet Cray X1 was delivered. The X1 is the latest offering from Cray, Inc. The system should be available for allocated usage by Oct. 1. Here's an image of it in our machine room:
The system is named "klondike". It took 70 hours in a semi-tractor trailer rig to cover the 3400 miles from Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin to Fairbanks, Alaska, and 6 hours to be unloaded, set up, and powered up in our machine room.
Processors are being installed in two stages. Currently, it has 64, 12.8 gflop multi-streaming processors, and the second set of 64 will be installed later this summer.
Here's a 10-minute movie, courtesy of Leone Thierman of ARSC, of unloading and installation:
Stay tuned! We'll have a lot to say about the X1 in this newsletter.
SX-6 Memory Requirements for Parallel Jobs
[ Thanks to Ed Kornkven of ARSC. ]
SX-6 users may be familiar with the steps necessary to run a program under autotasking. Namely, the program must first be compiled with the -Pauto compiler option. Second, the NQS script for an autotasked batch job must specify the number of processors for NQS to allocate to the job (the -c option) as well as the number of microtasks to use in parallelizing the program (via the F_RSVTASK environment variable). These two numbers will typically be equal. Here is a simple NQS script for running "a.out" with two processors:
# # # # # # # # # # # # # Per-request CPU time #@$-lT 20:00 # # Per-request Memory #@$-lM 64MB # # Number of CPUs to use #@$-c 2 # # Combine stderr and stdout into one file #@$-eo # # Name of queue #@$-q batch # # Shell to use #@$-s /usr/bin/csh # # Change to work directory cd $QSUB_WORKDIR # # Detailed hardware stats setenv F_PROGINF DETAIL2 # # Number of microtasks setenv F_RSVTASK 2 # # Execute the program ./a.out # # # # # # # # # # # #
It isn't our purpose to give an in-depth NQS tutorial here, but rather to illustrate a potential pitfall and its obscure manifestation. When this script was executed recently, it seemed to only run on one processor as evidenced by the hardware statistics that were printed. A portion of those are reproduced here:
****** Program Information ****** Real Time (sec) : 12.620525 User Time (sec) : 11.534289 Sys Time (sec) : 0.032625 Vector Time (sec) : 11.463276 Inst. Count : 917380607. V. Inst. Count : 874561395. V. Element Count : 104537180864. FLOP Count : 82143494463. MOPS : 9066.878771 MFLOPS : 7121.678195 MOPS (concurrent) : 9066.903926 MFLOPS (concurrent) : 7121.697953 VLEN : 119.530980 V. Op. Ratio (%) : 99.959056 Memory Size (MB) : 48.000000 Max Concurrent Proc. : 1. Conc. Time(>= 1)(sec): 11.534257 : :
Note the last two lines. Only one processor is reporting. We were expecting to see something like:
****** Program Information ****** Real Time (sec) : 6.091186 User Time (sec) : 12.125577 Sys Time (sec) : 0.028495 Vector Time (sec) : 11.468935 Inst. Count : 937278529. V. Inst. Count : 874561403. V. Element Count : 104537182776. FLOP Count : 82143574467. MOPS : 8626.385359 MFLOPS : 6774.405413 MOPS (concurrent) : 17179.574337 MFLOPS (concurrent) : 13491.328818 VLEN : 119.530981 V. Op. Ratio (%) : 99.940041 Memory Size (MB) : 80.000000 Max Concurrent Proc. : 2. Conc. Time(>= 1)(sec): 6.088620 Conc. Time(>= 2)(sec): 6.037041 : :
In the second report we see clearly that two processors are at work and in fact giving a very nice speedup.
What happened in the first run? The hint is on the third line from the bottom in each of the hardware stat displays. The first program ran with insufficient memory for autotasking and the only sign of the fact is the odd hardware statistics output. When plenty of memory was added, program worked fine. It should be noted that 64MB is sufficient when autotasking is turned off.
How much is the "plenty" of memory that we need to use for autotasking? Well, the machine tells us: it used exactly 80MB. So we adjust our script to request 80MB instead of 64MB and the program... crashes! It also crashes with 81MB. 82MB works fine though. So "plenty" seems to mean "what the program reports plus a little more" and it is going to be more than what was required without autotasking.
Watch your OpenMP Environment
On the Cray SV1ex the default OpenMP schedule type for parallel DO loops is DYNAMIC. From CrayDoc, the chunk size is set as follows:
DYNAMIC is the default schedule type, depending on the type of loop, as follows: * For non-innermost loops, DYNAMIC is the default SCHEDULE type. The chunk size is set to 1. * For innermost loops without a REDUCTION clause, DYNAMIC is the default SCHEDULE type. The chunk size is set to the target machine's maximum vector length. For innermost loops with a REDUCTION clause, GUIDED is the default SCHEDULE type. This scheduling mechanism is described in the following paragraphs.
If your loops, inner or outer, are large, you may get better performance by overriding the default chunk sizes with larger values.
Here's a dramatic example, using the SMP version of the STREAM benchmark (see: http://www.streambench.org ), which is designed to be memory bandwidth limited and vector heavy, and not necessarily indicative of how your real application will respond. It is especially susceptible to having the flow of work chopped up into small pieces. The runs were made on a busy system.
- The scheduling type and chunk sizes are as noted.
- The "Triad" value is the memory bandwidth reported by STREAM's "Triad" test.
- The STREAM array size used was 2000000 array elements.
- These were run with 4 threads.
OMP_SCHEDULE: <<default>> Triad: 57.0 MB/sec CPU seconds : 140.87375 OMP_SCHEDULE: DYNAMIC,128 Triad: 5779.9 MB/sec CPU seconds : 1.28558 OMP_SCHEDULE: DYNAMIC,1024 Triad: 8624.3 MB/sec CPU seconds : 1.01457 OMP_SCHEDULE: STATIC,128 Triad: 10399.1 MB/sec CPU seconds : 0.87952 OMP_SCHEDULE: STATIC,1024 Triad: 9634.7 MB/sec CPU seconds : 0.92272
It's pretty clear that for this code, the default scheduling type isn't the best. You might play with some of these setting as you optimize your own codes.

Quick-Tip Q & A
A:[[ I run a series of batch jobs (NQS, LoadLeveler, PBS, whatever). Each [[ run must create its own directory for output. My current method is to [[ manually edit the batch script for each run, typing the name for the [[ output directory, like this: [[ [[ OUTDIR="results.028" [[ [[ this variable is used later in the script, e.g.,: [[ [[ mkdir $OUTDIR [[ cd $OUTDIR [[ [[ I don't care much what names are used for the directories. Can you [[ recommend a way, if there is one, to come up with these names [[ automatically? # # Thanks to Richard Griswold: # One method is to append the PID to the directory name: OUTDIR="results.$$" mkdir $OUTDIR cd $OUTDIR A safer way is to use the mktemp command. If your system doesn't have mktemp, you can get it from http://www.mktemp.org/ OUTDIR=`mktemp -dq results.XXXXXX` exit 1 cd $OUTDIR # # Thanks to Brad Chamberlain: # I use the following technique in NQS. Suggestions for generalizing it for other queuing systems are mentioned at the end. Each NQS job has a unique identifier associated with it stored in an environment variable called QSUB_REQID. This number corresponds to the number you'll see when submitting jobs or checking on their status. As an example, if I submit a job as follows: yukon% qsub mg.8W nqs-181 qsub: INFO Request <20858.yukon>: Submitted to queue <mpp> ...for this submission, QSUB_REQID is 20858. I use this variable to make qsub output filenames unique using the following lines in my qsub script. ### towards the top with other QSUB options, I insert: #QSUB -o output/mg.8.out # (this specifies that output should go in my output subdirectory # and should be named mg.8.out) ### at the top of my actual set of commands, I insert: cd ~/qsub/output # (cd to the same output subdirectory named above) mv mg.8.out mg.8.$QSUB_REQID.out # (rename the previous output file created by this script to a # new unique name, created using this job's QSUB_REQID) This technique works because the output file generated by the QSUB -o directive doesn't appear in this directory until the script completes running. Thus, the mv command executes before the new mg.8.out file is ever created. Note that this technique will not store the output of job 20858 in file mg.8.20858.out as one might like. Rather, it will store the output of job 20858 in mg.8.out (for now), and the output of the previous job in mg.8.20858.out. I find I don't care much about the actual job number... keeping my files unique is sufficient, so this trick works. I then get summary information across a number of runs using commands like: grep Time mg.8.*out While it's tempting to put the $QSUB_REQID directly in the -o directive, it seems that variable names are not expanded there, so you will literally get a file called mg.8.$QSUB_REQID.out, which isn't terribly useful. Other queueing systems typically have similar built-in variables that are unique to each submission, but I don't know them offhand, so you'll need to read some man pages to find out how to do that. Another approach would be to use the built-in $$ variable provided by csh-like scripts to refer to a script's process number. This could be used instead of $QSUB_REQID above, for example (I prefer QSUB_REQID because it corresponds to a number that I have a better grasp of, even though it has the imperfect "off-by-a-submission" issue mentioned above). # # Editor's method: # This NQS script create a directory with the name "outdir.YYYYMMDD.HHMM" where YYYY is the year, MM is the month, etc... #QSUB -q batch #QSUB -lM 100MW #QSUB -lT 8:00:00 #QSUB -s /bin/ksh cd $QSUB_WORKDIR OUTDIR=outdir.$(date "+%Y%m%d.%H%M") mkdir $OUTDIR cd $OUTDIR And the result of a test: CHILKOOT$ qsub t.qsub nqs-181 qsub: INFO Request <11293.chilkoot>: Submitted to queue <batch> CHILKOOT$ ls -l -d outdir.* drwx------ 2 staff 4096 May 23 15:24 outdir.20030523.1524 Q: OUCH!!!!!!!!! I had, yes, note past tense... a couple files to save, several to delete, and some of those to delete had permission 400. They looked something like this: $ ll total 144 -rw------- 1 saduser sadgroup 4280 May 23 15:36 d -rw------- 1 saduser sadgroup 535 May 23 15:36 e -rw------- 1 saduser sadgroup 17120 May 23 15:35 f -r-------- 1 saduser sadgroup 8560 May 23 15:35 a -r-------- 1 saduser sadgroup 2140 May 23 15:35 c -r-------- 1 saduser sadgroup 1070 May 23 15:35 b To simplify my life, I did this, rm -i -f ? I expected "rm" to ask about each file before deleting it, and to take care of the "400" files automatically. Oh well.. it blasted them all, and didn't even ask. If there's a question in all this, maybe you could answer it. I'm too upset to think.

How to cook with spice blends
1.Panch phoron: "Five spices" in Bengali
Popular in: Northeast India and Bangladesh.
The blend: Five seeds: cumin, fennel, fenugreek, brown mustard, and nigella.
Flavors: Bittersweet and licorice-y.
How to use it: Pop briefly in hot ghee or oil to release flavors; don't scorch, or seeds will get bitter. You can also simmer it in a dal or chicken-vegetable stew, knead into bread dough, season marinades for roasted meats, or sauté with sliced cabbage.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|EOD Guy
|Dakota Digital has a gear selector mech, I've never installed one but it might work for you....... DD is very proude of their stuff tho'
X 2 with vicrod.
the stock manual lever position switch for the 4L60E only has 3 inputs to determine gear position/selection.
The scematic shows 3 wire with a gang of 5 switches, which makes it interesting.
I have a schematic , It may help you, or confuse you?
I do not have any way to tell what combination the switches will be on or off in any particualer gear.
An aftermarket setup for you indicators may be the way to go.
Fords MPLS are a little different , at least from what I can tell from the schematics.It has a series of different resistor strips, and each one has a tap, so the value changes each time the selector is moved to the next gear.
I suspect the GM MPLS has resistors in it, allthough the schematic doesnt show it, but 2 switches on one circuit to be in parallel does not make sense, it would be either on or off. It only makes sense that the GM switch also has resistors in it. I just have not had the pleasure of tesing one against a schematic. Even if I did , I am not sure it would help you configure a setup to run your indicators.
The typical shifter switch has only neutral start and reverse lights.
You need a switch that links to the shift linkage that has electrical contacts that close in each position of the shifter.
Then from each of those (5) positions PRNDL run a wire to the respective indicator light.
A hot ignition feed will be connected to all of the (5) positions.
Lokar makes a switch but I have no knowledge if it works.
Some fabrication is required but a standard rotary selector switch could be adapted for this purpose.
|67Mustang Al.
HI. Unlike incandescent globes, old style regular bayonet style) it didnt matter which way you connected the globes +ve or -ve on the metal case or lead centre, it doesnt matter. With LED lights they are polarized which means one of the two leads out of a LED light is positve and the other negative . If you hook them up the wrong way they wont light up at all. That is the positive wire on the negative lead stops them working.
If you use LED lights as indicators they will flash at a high rate and you will need to slow the flash rate down by using a different flasher unit or a resistor with the led lights. No special switch is required.
Other than that , i am not sure.
4l60e prndl wiring
i bought new led lights for the prndl indicators and i have the wiring diagram for the neutral safety switch but not getting anything from the lights. the tranny is from a 98 chevy pickup and was curious if anybody has wired their indicator lights from the stock switch or if you have to buy an aftermarket switch to work the indicator lights, like the one ron francis sells. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Im looking to build a clone trooper commander Wolffe armor and wanted to know if any one

Im looking for Phase II Clone Trooper Commander armor
Animated or realistic?
For animated, you really would have to wait, as no one has sculpted it yet. But eventually you would go with KW or WCA armor if it is made publicly available. But for Phase 2, I'd say it's a minimum 3-5 month wait until it's available as the reference only recently became available.
Realistic -- go OSCS.
Either way, you want to register on clonetroopers.net and do some research there. Don't post a WTB thread, as that is against the rules. Search for the terms I just gave you and then contact the appropriate people. But, again, if you are looking to do the new animated look from Season 4, you'll be waiting like the rest of us.
Good luck!
Wait a minute what do you mean by REALISTIC? I only thought he showed up in the cartoon ?
did you see the Captain Rex thread underneath yours? I think that's a realistic Wolffe, albeit Phase I
ill take a look but no one knows if any one has started making the grey wolf ?

There are really only two makers of animated armor and they are just starting to sculpt Phase 2/Season 4 stuff. It will be a while before anyone will have an accurate Phase 2 animated clone of any ilk -- much less one of the face characters -- though my money on the first accurate animated S4 realization you'll see will be on Stormtrooperguy finishing his Rex (I would guess in late Dec/early Jan).
How's that for pressure, Brian?
I'm honestly surprised I haven't seen any pics of him trooping in one yet
DANG IT i hateeeee waiting this sucksssss major
I was also thinking of doing the clone trooper armor that is more similar to the actual movies vs. the clone animated series. I still want to do Wolffe, but do you think I can make it closer to the movie version? I don't think Wolffe was in the movies, but could you simulate the normal clone trooper outfits to fit with Wolffe's outfit?
really love commader wolffe. he is just so awesome and looks so **** cool! once ive done my custom mando, im definately going to think about making a comander wolffe suit!
This guy has made the phase 2 wolffe and Rex armor.

How to raise your sales at eBay
When your products are on eBay, you're a bit ahead of your competitors. But it's just the first step to raise your sales. Here are a few tips that may help you increase traffic and, eventually, gain more customers.
Accept more modes of payment. If you are used to accepting only credit cards, PayPal or Money Order as modes of payment, why don't you try to expand it by taking all other modes of payment? Consider this: many customers are comfortable issuing checks, and you may be turning them away if you don't accept this mode of payment. I know this might be scary on your part, but there's no harm in trying anyway. At first, you may try holding the order until the check clears. If the customer comes back to buy more from you using the same mode of payment, you may as well give your trust to that customer.
Terms and Conditions. It is worthwhile laying down all your Terms and Conditions, including other information that customers should know or would possibly ask about their transactions to avoid misunderstanding with them later on. This also saves them time and effort to further e-mail or call you for clarifications.
Ship worldwide. Being on eBay means your products can be viewed even up to the other end of the globe. And again, if you limit your shipping schedule to certain destinations only, potential customers on that side of the world may not be able to avail of your products, and may as well turn to your competitor who offers shipping in their direction.
Optimize. It pays to learn about Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Do some reading and research on how customers find your products and how your items are ranked in user searches. Please make sure, though, that your SEO activity conforms with eBay policy; otherwise, you will lose your listing exposure.
Product presentation. Present your products in high quality photographs, and you should have them snapped at different angles. Poorly-taken photographs usually equate with poor product quality and lack of seriousness on the part of the seller.
Product brand and logo. This aspect is crucial because customers are keen about product brand and quality. When you have established your brand, people will think that you are a serious seller.

does anyone know what that bee is doing all day hovering over the ground?Regards,Paul
I find that the only clues that I can tell if they are Africanized is the little circle of huts and the loincloths. :-D
You may be watching any number of like minded bee types that are doing exactly that. Hovering in one place and then darting off trying to catch something, then returning to the same spot, and repeating it over and over.
What type bee you have, I have no clue. But my money is it NOT being a honey bee.
As I understand it, The AHB doesn't forage much different then other honey bees. Unless I knew of or found a hive that has the aggressive nature in the numbers defending their home, it would be hard to tell the difference. As mentioned, the euorpean and africanized are very close in size and color. I had the European honey bee, they are a gentle bee in my eyes. Yet, some european honey bees made headlines on the news by attacking a Lama and killing it. The rancher where the out yard was located said he tried contacting the bee keeper for 2 weeks prior to the attack. There were signs that something was going on with the hive. They were going after animals but not killing them. Nothing was going on with the hives around it. To me, any honey bee can be aggressive just not like the AHB.Seems we all should be alert and aware of the possibility but I would ask myself if there might be some paranoia creeping in?

Most beautiful and delicious blooming teas
I have a strange desire to try a few blooming teas. I say strange because previously I was terrified of them (sea creature aliens!!!) but they have started to appeal to me greatly (it may even have something to do with the fact that I've been kinda sorta getting into some horror movies – unheard of for me! I found them way too scary!) but anyway:
Have any of you had a blooming tea that you found particularly beautiful and delicious?
Right now I have my eye on the ones offered by the Art of Tea:
and I'm liking their glass pitcher to watch the blooming:
but as always, any and all advice, opinions, and recommendations appreciated!
I've come across a few in my time, but while they were pretty to look at, none of them were really particularly interesting in flavour. So I've turned a bit away from them again in disappointment.
I have had a few nice experiences with flowering teas and I am tempted by the free offer from Ego Tea Company: http://www.egotea.com/tea/flowering/index.htm
They have one or two other teas I have wanted to try so I may put in an order and let you know what I think…
I had one or two but they were nothing to write home about. The water quickly got a bit murky and the tea just wasn't that great. I don't think I had really high quality ones, though. I am sure there are better ones to be had. I have had good luck with everything Harney. Maybe one of theirs would be good! My glass pitcher is now holding a plant on the kitchen windowsill because I knew I wouldn't be drinking blooming tea again!
