2009 NSRA Street Rod Nationals - The Nats
Written by on February 1, 2010 The NSRA Street Rod Nationals, Louisville, KentuckyNow that I think about it, one of my all- time favorite events (the huge NSRA Street Rod Nationals) has never been a real big player in the classic truck world-even though it draws anywhere between 8,000 and 12,000 entries each year (for those who've never attended, it's huge-imagine over 300 vendors spread throughout 500,000 square feet of indoor exhibit area on top of the aforementioned cool cars and trucks on display), I'm guessing that's mainly because the association's strict pre-1949 year cutoff pretty much disqualified a large portion of the truck contingent. Sure, there has always been a pretty darn good turnout of street rod pickups ('27 to '40s), F-1's and of course '47 and '48 Chevys but, in all honesty, it's been mainly the domain of street rods for the 40 or so years it's been held.
Well, starting this year (2010) the NSRA has opened up the year break for the Nats up to and including 1980! Finally classic truckers and their pride and joys will have the opportunity to be a part of one of the biggest and most fun events in the hobby, and I'm hoping that the Nats will become a premier classic truck destination in the future. That said, I wanted to give you a sneak peek at some of the pickups that were there this past season (heck, I may even show ya a few cool street rods as well) to give ya an idea of what's in store for those who add the NSRA Nationals to their event calendar this year. I've been going to the Nats for years (my first was Tulsa back in 1976), and will continue attending for as long as it's held-especially now that I'll have the opportunity to see and shoot features on the classic trucks I love so much. So take a look at a fraction of the pickups I ran across this past season, and then please consider making the Nats one of the events you choose to attend this year. Believe me, if you've never been it'll be an experience-show up once and you'll be hooked!

Help Build a Well in Afghanistan
Roll over image to zoom in
Bring clean water to families who have fled the Taliban.
Afghanistan has been at war for a generation. In order to break the cycles of violence and of dependence on foreign aid, grassroots efforts need to be taken -- efforts focused on women and families, and on giving the tools for Afghans to survive and even thrive. Clean water is one of these tools.
Women of Hope is a nonprofit dedicated to empowering families, especially women, living under Taliban oppression. Women of Hope has already installed a well at a refugee camp for the Kuchi people inside the Kabul city limits. Now they hope to bring the gift of clean water to another refugee camp that is even worse off -- located past Karte Nau but still within the Kabul City limits.
These people have fled the Taliban from Helmand and Khandahar with little more than what they could carry. There were approximately 200 families there as of early December 2009, and more have been coming every week. Since there is no local water source, they must walk long distances with wheelbarrows to acquire it. A well in the camp would be an inestimable blessing in a country where women and girls are not allowed to venture outside their homes without being escorted by a male relative.
You can help. $12 funds 1/100th of the cost of constructing a 100-meter well in a refugee camp in Afghanistan, giving the gift of clean water to some of the poorest of the poor. Women of Hope would like to install one well for every 50 families, totaling at least 4 wells at this location.
Women of Hope Project is dedicated to restoring hope, dignity and empowerment to Afghan women and children. Its goal is to end hunger and poverty by teaching women and providing opportunities to promote self sufficiency and self-esteem.

The options that will be considered for a proposed Loop Road project that would route traffic from U.S. Highway 50 around the casino corridor could be chosen as soon as April.The South Lake Tahoe City Council will hold a special meeting March 12 during which updated information about the long-discussed project will be presented, according to a Thursday statement from the Tahoe Transportation District.The proposed road would take traffic from U.S. Highway 50 around the south side of Heavenly Village and the casinos. The road through the casinos would be narrowed, and improvements such as landscaping would be added. The exact configuration of the road is still under discussion.Project proponents envision the Loop Road as part of a plan to reinvigorate the South Shore economy by making the stateline area more pedestrian friendly.The project has been criticized by some business and homeowners concerned with the loss of their property. Some have also said the project will drive business to Nevada at the expense of California businesses.A recently completed economic analysis of the proposed project found Stateline-area shopping centers could see total annual retail sales increases of $16 million to $25 million if the Loop Road, as well as South Lake Tahoe's General Plan and the South Shore Vision Plan are completed."Increased retail sales will stem from increased levels of tourist visitation, higher levels of visitor spending, and a higher capture of spending from local residents," according to an executive summary of the analysis. The full analysis is expected to be available next week, said Carl Hasty, the executive director of the Tahoe Transportation District.Representatives of Economic & Planning System Inc. the consulting firm that completed the analysis, as well as the Loop Road's engineer, will present information about the project at the March 12 meeting.The TTD's board could determine which alternatives will be analyzed in the proposal's environmental document as soon as April, Hasty said.

Glee follows a high-school teacher as he tries to revitalize the school's Glee Club. This show is a musical drama; as it places musical numbers throughout the hour long show; but instead of having the characters spontaneously break into song, the numbers are usually done as part of the rehearsal process for the glee club.

TMCSuperTech 2008
About the only thing that was the same at this year's TMCSuperTech competition was the winner.
In just its fourth year, the Technology and Maintenance Council's (TMC) SuperTech National Technician Skills Competition is truly getting bigger and better, with more contestants, more volunteers, more skill stations and more sponsors. This September, 121 technicians, 227 volunteer judges and more than 900 attendees descended on Nashville to spend several days immersed in all that is modern heavy-truck maintenance. And while there was plenty of hard work to go around, it was all smiles and celebrations at the end for another job well done.
The competition kicked off with the written skills and preliminary testing, which narrowed the field to the 96 who would go on to the 14-station Hands-on Skills Challenge--the highlight of TMC's annual fall meeting, which covers a wide variety of industry topics at task force and study group meetings, forums and panel discussions.
TMC, a technical council of American Trucking Associations, started the competition in 2005 to recognize truck technicians and promote career opportunities, and so far it has been a resounding success for all involved. TMC executive director Carl Kirk says given the rapid pace of technological change, being a heavy truck technician is one of the most challenging skilled jobs there is.
"The knowledge base that these folks have to master is truly amazing," he says. "It's entirely appropriate that TMC honors the crème de la crème of our industry."
Once again, that crème de la crème had a distinctive southern flavor, as David Bryan Lewis of Amelia Court House, VA, kept a vice grip on the SuperTech Grand Champion crown for the second straight year. For his efforts, Lewis, 45, took home quite a bounty, including a NEXIQ Technologies' Snap-On Elite Series tool chest valued at around $10,000, a Panasonic Toughbook 19 laptop loaded with Noregon Systems' JPRO Fleet Service Kit and an all-expense trip for two to the Daytona 500.
An ASE Master Fleet Technician in Heavy Truck and Advanced Electronic Diagnostics with Wal-Mart Transportation's Sutherland, VA facility, Lewis joined the company in 1992 after spending more than a decade as a full-time technician with the Virginia National Guard, where he followed in the footsteps of his father. Back home, Lewis' father got him interested in the business by showing him the ropes at a tender age.
"At six, seven years old, I helped him hold the drop light and do various tasks, and you just go from there," he says.
While in the Guard, Lewis worked on "everything diesel from bumper to rear," and credits their older technicians for passing along their knowledge and passion.
"They were my mentors; they took me under their wing and showed me proper procedures to fix, repair and troubleshoot," he says. "I owe them a great deal of thanks for pulling me in the right direction. I learned that individuals do not win--it's being part of a team--understanding a timeline and attention to detail."
Lewis' area manager Dominick Yates credits Lewis' success to his strong work ethic.
"He takes every job seriously, even the small ones," he says. "He pays attention to detail and takes his time to diagnose every aspect of the problem. He listens to driver feedback and in doing so gets going in the right direction to complete necessary repairs, without lost time troubleshooting."
The best way to prepare for the SuperTech competition is to treat each problem with care and common sense, Lewis says.
"Study it in depth and in detail as much as you can, apply the industry standards--get a mental picture of how everything's supposed to operate--and then you can troubleshoot it correctly," he says. "And then practice and practice and practice."
Of course, having some experience in the competition helps.
"You know what to expect as far as the length of the day, how to maintain your nerves," he says. "You try to keep calm and learn to tell yourself, 'I can do this, it's just like every day at the shop; you're just under the time clock a bit.'"
Each year there are new challenges, though, like tangling with the imposing Detroit Diesel "DD15" engine.
"The newer software that goes with that engine, we were not that familiar with, (so that) made it an interesting challenge--when you raise the hood, you think you're down at NASA looking at some spaceship," Lewis chuckled. "But that's new technology and you welcome change, and you say, 'OK, it's new, but I can do this.' Stick to the basics, use all your material there and talk to your judge."
Ryder Systems, Inc. technician Michael Bogard of Neenah, WI, knows how slim the margin is between winning and coming up just short. He earned the top score on the written test for the past three years, but this year ended up tied and lost out on a tie-breaker. He also finished a mere 12 points behind Lewis, good enough for third place overall--another piece of his growing TMCSuperTech legacy.
The key to doing so well in both phases of the competition? Bogard says his best advice is to study hard, understand how the various systems work and stick to standard procedures.
"Read the troubleshooting steps and understand how the different components operate--if you know how they're supposed to function, when they give you different scenarios of something wrong, you can pinpoint what part of that system could be the problem," he says. "If you don't understand how it's supposed to work, when you see all these different answers saying, 'Is it this part or that part,' you have no idea. If you start guessing, you might get it right once in a while, but you'll waste a lot of time backtracking, and (it's) very costly when you start troubleshooting by replacing parts."
Bogard says it is important to do as much studying as possible on anything that is unfamiliar.
"A lot of the stuff, we don't have that component or that brand of engine, or I don't work on that, so I like to brush-up and just read about those stations, so you're not going in blind," he says. "They are covering the entire industry, and it's real-world situations they have--stuff you're going to encounter every day."
Bogard says coming so close to the overall title this year has made him more determined to not leave any stone unturned in his preparation for next year. Still, he says he takes nothing for granted.
"You start thinking back--little things that you missed that would have made the difference," he says. "When you have 14 stations, it doesn't take many. It's very hard to trying to remain focused with a long, grueling day like that. It starts to wear on you. It helps having gone through it, but by having gone through it before, it seems like you put more pressure on yourself, and other people look at it, 'You've been there before and been close, so you can do it now.' Sometimes by putting that extra pressure on yourself, it messes with your mind, and it's hard to keep it clear and focused."
While many technicians who compete at TMCSupertech have prior experience in the event, several first-time entrants did very well, including Swift Transportation technician Phillip Mellor, of Albuquerque, NM, who won the engine competition after not knowing quite what to expect.
"We all worked really close with the training department, which as luck would have it, pointed us in the right direction," he says. "The most nervous parts were waiting for the results to come in for the hands-on, especially with the company VP at the table. Also, going on stage to pick up the prize was very intimidating."
Not one to rest on his laurels, Mellor says the experience gained from this year's competition is only going to help him to better prepare for 2009. A key mentor for Mellor has been his supervisor, Swift Transportation corporate maintenance training manager Jeff Harris, who says what sets Mellor apart is his determination to learn about every major system of tractors used in the industry. Harris says Mellor's competitive drive and positive attitude sets him apart.
"He has really put in the study time--most of which was on his own time, so I was not surprised to see him do well, I just didn't know what would be his strongest station," he says. "You really must be strong to win a station."
Doug Skelly of First Vehicle Services has been a technician for nearly 30 years, but had not heard about TMCSuperTech until last year. He didn't have much time to prepare, but that didn't stop him from winning the Safety & Environmental Skill Station. He said the competition was tiring but rewarding.
"I learned a lot," he says. "It was more a mental drain than it was a physical drain. Your brain was just drained after the two days."
Skelly says perhaps the best part of the competition was getting to meet technicians from across the country and "comparing notes" on their work.
"I learned a lot about other vehicles, which was really helpful," he says. "The more you can do throughout the day and learning throughout the days will get you one step closer."
It's not just the technicians who benefit from the information learned and connections made at TMCSuperTech. For companies that send technicians, there is a wealth of information and knowledge to be returned and spread around the shop.
"They're training their techs and bringing them up to a level that really benefits everyone," says WyoTech diesel instructor Chad Parsons.
Ryder Systems Inc. Neenah, WI service manager Kenneth Hurst says having a TMCSuperTech standout on staff like third-place finisher Michael Bogard provides many advantages.
"It's a credit to our place," he says. "People call and say, 'So this is the place with the top tech?' It carries over to the shop. A lot of guys here aspire to succeed and be more like Mike. He's someone they can go to for help if they're stumped."
Wal-Mart Transportation regional maintenance manager Dan Willard says the competition is a "major win" for all involved.
"The benefit is the teamwork, the networking, the knowledge and skill these guys gain just by going through the competition itself, from being with that level of people and having that experience," he says.
Dale Domish, senior vice-president of First Vehicle Services says the company has seen plenty of positives in the two years they have sent technicians to TMCSuperTech.
"It brings a level of enthusiasm back to the shop when they return, and it definitely encourages everybody," he says. "It broadens your horizons, and is a learning experience."
Swift's Harris says any fleet professionals who have yet to send technicians to the event should do so in '09, and reap the benefits.
"It is really good for the technicians to spend time with other technicians across the industry as well as take part in some of the meetings that discuss the future of our industry," he says. "If your technician puts forth the effort that it takes to do well at these events, his or her knowledge will be drastically increased. If technician knowledge is increased, repair time goes down and productivity goes up."
The competition is catching on among fleets, Long says.
"Everybody's starting to say, 'I want to get involved in this--there is a benefit to my technicians and my company in order to get my people where they need to be,'" he says. "The competition is not just a competition, it's a learning process. It gives a chance for (technicians) to talk to other technicians who have more expertise, so they're bringing added value back to the workplace. It's that confidence that it builds within the individual that says, 'Hey, I can work good under pressure.' That's what you want on the shop floor as well when you have a technician who comes in and you've got three trucks at the door and one honking his horn."
Wheel End Skills Station chairman Roger Maye of Consolidated Metco says some fleets start preparation for TMCSuperTech as early as February--not a bad idea, as the level of competition continues to rise.
"They are sending us a better competitor by far than we started out with--these guys are getting really sharp, and you can see a difference in the grades," he says. "So much is changing so fast in the industry, the skills that you had last week are probably not going to get you through next week. Some of the preparation they're doing up front is one of the reason we're seeing such difference in the level of the competitor."
Since technicians are going to return to their shops with whatever they've learned at the competition, Maye says it is important to provide the most realistic challenges possible.
"If you look at the 14 skills stations we have, it's a pretty good cross-section of everything a technician is going to have to work on," he says. "We're covering the major vehicle systems and the most current information. When a guy comes to this competition, he's going to go back to his shop to talk about the experience and the parts that challenged him, and the company is going to benefit from this guy wanting to improve. I've seen some of these competitors now for three or four years, and a lot of them have improved their work methods and the way they go about things, just because of some of the things they've been exposed to. It's had a positive effect all the way around."
Arrants says he is pleased to see fleet managers starting to use the competition as designed--to determine the strengths and areas in need of improvements in their training programs; especially the fleets that bring a large number of technicians.
"When they leave, all of the technicians have their scores on the workstations, so a good fleet manager or training director is going to review those scores and find out if there is a consistency with their techs in an area we're testing, and if there is an area of improvement that they focus their training on next year, and not utilize valuable training dollars training on an area they all did well on," he says. "Since we make sure that the skill sets that we test the technicians on are skill sets they would utilize every day in their job, if they scored low in that area, then they know they need to focus some attention, if they wanted to come back next year, on those areas."
Do you need to justify some money for technician training? Arrants says TMCSuperTech is the ticket.
"What better way than (using) the scores from the SuperTech competition for them to go back and say, 'Hey, this is what I need and here's why--I had 10 technicians, and nine of the 10 did terrible here and they're the cream of our crop,'" he says. "It can also help them utilize their training dollars to be more cost-effective or if they're trying to increase their budget for training, SuperTech justifies it by showing where the improvements need to be and also how they stack up with some of their competitors. The one benefit that some companies are not utilizing or are not aware of, is the benefit that we provide them on strengths and area of improvements in all these difference areas. That's huge."
Arrants says competing in SuperTech can also help fleets attract and retain their best technicians.
"It's also a reward for a job well done--to show these folks that they think enough of the job that they do to send them on to this competition and take them out of the shop for three days and pay their way," he says. "You talk to all the techs, and they are tickled pink to be there, and they're very happy that their employers have made that investment in them, and they want to do a good job for their bosses. It builds camaraderie between the employer and the employee--it fosters that loyalty, which is very important these days. They're all on the same team and working together. It does a lot for the technician's self-esteem, to know that their employer is willing to invest in them to come to this thing. And within the company, it stirs the competition so that other techs now want to be able to get involved in SuperTech."
A key component to the competition is the amount of vehicles and equipment that a variety of companies bring, some from a significant distance. For the past three years, Phoenix, AZ-based Swift Transportation has supplied trucks and management personnel to mentor the technicians and participate in the educational panels. This year the company brought along a half-dozen EPA SmartWay-Certified "green" trucks to the event--both to help the event and to support the SmartWay program--but it is what the group brought back that was particularly special.
Michele Calbi, Swift Transportation vice-president of procurement and shop operations, says having technician Phillip Mellor win one of the stations was just icing on the cake.
"Technicians have a difficult job in that they must keep up-to-date on the latest, ever-changing technical advancements that the tractor and trailer manufacturers introduce year after year; especially in the diesel engine arena... and we are very proud of Phillip's accomplishment," she says. "And, of course, technicians feel that if one member of the Swift team can win, it is truly possible for them to win as well."
Calbi says there is no greater venue to support technician knowledge and experience than TMCSuperTech.
"Improvement in technician excellence benefits all; including the technician, truck drivers and other on the road traveling along side the truck," she says. "There is no better way to enhance training and technician excellence than to have technicians compete in the SuperTech competition."
Industry sponsors like Swift Transportation provided an enormous amount of equipment, tools and awards that are necessary to pull off such a large event: Freightliner and seven fleets donated the use of 36 Class-8 tractors and six converter dollies for the competition, NEXIQ Technologies' provided one of its Snap-on tool chests for the grand champion, Panasonic provided Toughbook 19 laptops valued at approximately $4,000 to the grand champion and each of the skills station winners. Noregon Systems provided its new JPRO Fleet Service Kits loaded on each of the Toughbooks. Each of the 96 finalists received an Apple iPod Touch, tools and other items, thanks to PTDC's Friend of the Technician sponsors.
First, second and third-place winners in the Safety & Environmental Skill Station received safety compliance kit from the Coordinating Committee for Automotive Repair. Cengage Learning-Delmar & Chilton, which sponsored the Repair Order Generation Skill Station, provided the winner with a $1,000 AMEX card. The top three competitors in the Engine Skill Station received a Nexiq Diagnostic Link from Snap-On. The top winner of the Tire and Wheel Skill Station received a $1,000 gift certificate from Chicago Pneumatic.
"Working together is what makes the competition such a success," says TMC exhibit and sponsorship manager Joe Hite.
Next year's TMCSuperTech competition is set for Sept. 14-17 at the Raleigh Convention Center, Raleigh, NC, and preparations and possible changes are already underway. Arrants says committee members are talking about extending the competition to two days, which would take some re-shuffling.
"We'd have to operate certain workstations on one day and then others on the second day, because if we don't, some techs will have an unfair advantage over others," he says.
One idea is to add mandatory training sessions for technicians.
"I have to be able to do something with them while the other ones are running through the workstations, so that certain techs would be going through workstations and others would be going through training," he says. "Instead of going for 25 minutes of training, they may sit there for an hour--two rotations--in this type of training, maybe do a workstation and then do another type of training. What it does is guarantee all technicians are exposed to the same training, and for the fleet managers, they know that those techs are going to get that training."
Perhaps the biggest change will be the likely addition of more contestants to the hands-on portion of the competition; possibly up to 114, which Arrants says would also create a need for additional skills stations.
"We review our workstations when we're done and look at the overall scoring, and Chuck Roberts with ASE provides input to the group on the bell curve and how the workstation actually performed, based on the scores, to determine if it was a little too easy or too hard, or if we have to make some modifications," he says.
It is never too early to start gearing up for next year for hopeful competitors, either, and while some fleets are more proactive than others at helping their technicians' preparation, Long says it is ultimately up to the competitors to be ready to answer the bell.
"The technician has to make sure he's taking matters into his own hands by keeping himself up-to-date, by reading trade magazines, technical literature, bulletins, service manuals, that type of thing," Long says. "We have the RP manuals there in place at the workstations, and we also have the literature there that outlines what he needs to do in order to do the process properly. Sometimes the tech will get in such a hurry that he thinks he knows the procedure and he leaves out a step along the way. Then he gets to the end and finds out he has an extra part, and (says) 'Wait a minute--where does this go?' And you have to tear everything down and redo it."
Lewis, who will return as the two-time defending champion next year, says any technicians who missed the cut this year should have ample incentive to study up and come back even better in '09.
"You hate to see people cut out, but that's competition," he says. "If you stub your toe and stumble one little bit, you can count on the next competitors to take the ball and run with it. It tells the guys, 'I've identified a weak area I'm in; I need to study hard for the next time.'
If you sit back on your heels and rest, you'll be a spectator."
ASE's Hornicek credits the growth of the competition to the energy and enthusiasm of everyone involved.
"Bottom line--it's the volunteer efforts of the fleets, manufacturers and trainers that make this a great success," he says.
"Every year gets better."
Of course, you cannot have a competition without judges, and 227 dedicated volunteers from 118 companies were on hand to help evaluate the competitors, like WyoTech diesel instructor Chad Parsons, who returned after a one-year hiatus to serve as an engine judge.
Judges have the sometimes difficult task of learning their what their station will feature just a day before the event, yet must know the troubleshooting problems in and out before being able to evaluate technicians. Arrants says the secrecy-as well as other measures taken by the committee-helps ensure a fair competition.
"They know what workstation they're assigned to, but they don't know what is going to be expected from the technicians until that day, so that limits any massive knowledge of people knowing what's going on," Arrants says.
Parsons faced a bit of a challenge when he found out he was tasked to grade technicians on the DD15-an engine he had precious little time working with.
"We were originally told we were going to do the DD15s and started to build our preparation off that, and then were told about a month into it that we could not get enough to do the job, so we switched up," he says. "We were then told the Thursday before the show we were switched up again and were going to the DD15s."
Unfortunately, WyoTech did not have any of the engines on hand, so the next day, Parsons and his fellow WyoTech engine judges traveled to a nearby Freightliner dealer to get a crash course.
"We got to build our problem and test it right there in about two hours-it worked out good," he says.
Despite the last-minute scramble, Parsons says serving as a TMCSuperTech judge was once again a great experience.
"It's the satisfaction of being involved-seeing what the industry really is doing," he says. "We get to see first-hand, the guys out there in the field and their capabilities, and what do we need to do to make sure these techs stay on top of their game? If we go through and watch 10 guys do the same problem, not all 10 do the same, and you'll walk away with more knowledge because you've seen 10 different approaches to one problem."
Charles Ralston, Midwestern technician trainer for TA/Petro travel centers, participated as a judge (HVAC) for the first time after twice competing as a technician. He says while his new job is not easy, it's much less stressful that competing and is very valuable for his work.
"I got a lot out of this event-mainly the ways that techs go about diagnosing problems," he says. "I could see where people have problems and try to work on this with my techs, and I also saw the good ways. This is a place for them to show how good they really are, and also what needs more work."
Ralston says the competition provides lessons for both competitors and judges alike, and urged fleet professionals to send their employees next year to see the benefits for themselves.
"More people should come to this event to see what they need to work on to further their career," he says. "When I went in 2005, I didn't know what to expect; I thought I was the big fish in the small pond, and then I got thrown into the ocean. It gave me a lot to work on and made me a better tech."
Roger Maye of Consolidated Metro has served as the Wheel End Skills Station chairman since the station was added in 2006, and says it is important for station chairmen to include a wide variety of judges from across the industry-even your biggest competitors.
"It works out to be a pretty good team effort," he says. "If you look at TMC, everybody pulls together for a common cause, and the skills challenges are a good example, where you've got competitors working side-by-side to put the event together. They all come and bring their expertise; we pool our information to come up with written questions. You get the collective benefit of everybody's experience."
As station chairman, it's up to Maye to make sure everything is running smoothly with both judges and competitors.
"We set everything up a couple days before and try to have a contingency plan if something breaks, so we don't miss a beat in the competition," he says. "And we always have enough judges so they can have a
little flexibility in the day, and not have to stay there eight hours. If we have six stations, we might have 10 judges-that way they can go to a task force meeting."
Next up for Maye is putting together next year's test questions -not an easy task, as the technicians continue to improve.
"I'll be surveying all the people who have helped us judge so we can come up with some new challenges and new test questions, and we'll be getting the latest service literature so we can update our vehicle procedures accordingly," he says. "I've been making the test a little harder each year so we've got something that can challenge these guys."
Winning a station is certainly not easy, but putting together more than a dozen skills stations and accurately judging contestants is no piece of cake, either. TMC's 13-person Professional Technician Development Committee (PTDC), which conducts the competition, keeps things running smoothly, and committee member Lee Long says their mission is to provide a fair, but tough competition to bring out the technicians' best.
"The competition is grueling, but that is all a part of it," Long says. "Those (who work well under pressure) are the ones you want making decisions about the proper repair process on the shop floor."
The first hurdle is a 100-question written test directly from the ASE Medium/Heavy Truck Certification Testing Program, developed from the truck OEMs, component manufacturers, trainers and technicians. The topics cover diesel engines, drivetrain, brakes, steering & suspension, electrical, HVAC and PMI.
"This is a reflection of the technicians who participate in this contest," says Kurt Hornicek, ASE director, M/H Truck Technical Programs. "SuperTech is more than just a title."
Thanks to some suggestions, this year also featured two preliminary workstations to help determine the cut score of the technicians who move on to the hands-on portion of the competition.
"We had some folks say to us in the past that some of the technicians that may do very well in the hands-on may not get there because they don't do well on written tests," says PDTC Contest Chairman George Arrants. "So we provided them two avenues to possibly increase their score, to give them an opportunity."
Once the finalists are chosen, technicians move to various rotations on to the hands-on skills stations, where Hornicek says he and his colleague Chuck Roberts, ASE executive director for industry relations, maintain the scoring database "with extreme attention to detail." If there are technicians from the same company, committee members put them in the same rotation to avoid passing information. This year, organizers added stations for safety and environmental fasteners, increasing the number of stations to 14.
The scores from each station are not only used to help determine winners; they are evaluated in future committee meetings to help plan next year's stations. That preparation includes a planning session at the Spring TMC Annual Meeting and conference calls throughout the rest of the year. Arrants says the group starts working on next year's event while the competition is going on.
"We take all that information into account immediately and create kind of a checklist," he says. "We already had one conference call regarding this with some of the officers just to set things in motion for next year."
Long says TMC "tweaks" the event from year to year to keep things fresh and to prevent technicians from getting into a comfort zone.
"It keeps the guys on their toes as far as what they have to be in tune with in order to be confident in their skill levels when they get to the competition," he says. "We're trying to get them to make sure that they follow the protocols that we have-the diagnostic 'trees' and that type of thing that are laid out before them in order to complete the task they're assigned at the workstation."

From alfrescowiki
The Common Internet File System (CIFS) also known as Server Message Block (SMB) is a network protocol whose most common use is sharing files on a LAN. The protocol allows a client to access servers, files and printers on the LAN as though they were on the local machine.
Microsoft uses CIFS in all flavours of Windows to provide its networking capabilities (i.e.: Shares, Network Neighbourhood). Unix/Linux also use CIFS via Samba, and Apple has several clients and servers available. Thus, it's a fairly interoperable protocol.
Side Note: (DEPRECATED ARTICLE)
JLAN and it's author have joined Alfresco. The full JLAN technology is available for OEM; a customised part is available as Open Source within Alfresco.
The rest of the article was written before this event (2005), so has the perspective of trying to implement CIFS in Alfresco with less knowledge.
CIFS has a client and a server part. The server is probably more applicable to us as we could expose the repository as a CIFS server. This would theoretically mean that the repository would show up in the Network Neighbourhood and users would be able to map the repository as a normal Windows drive letter.
The client capabilities may also be useful as we could import content from an existing network share, for example.
There is an open source implementation of a CIFS client called jCIFS.
The client library provides programmatic access to CIFS servers allowing the following:
- Browsing
- Domains and workgroups
- Servers within a domain/workgroup
- Shares available on a server i.e. folders, printers
- Files and folders within a share
- File/Folder Manipulation (with appropriate authentication)
- Create files/folders
- Read/Write files
- Delete files/folders
- Test for existence
- Retrieve properties
In order to access network resources you obviously need to supply login credentials.
These are provided in the URL you use to access the resource, for example:
The credentials can also be provided via the "jcifs.smb.client.username" and "jcifs.smb.client.password" properties. In turn there are several ways these can be provided to the client i.e. from command line, properties file etc.
However, it doesn't appear that these can be transparently picked up from the local machine i.e. single sign-on. In order to do that we would need to run from within a browser. We could then make use of the NTLM authentication filter jCIFS provides to source the credentials via the browsers challenge/response mechanism (although this would probably be IE only).
As mentioned above it makes more sense for us to try and provide a CIFS server interface to the repository. This means the repository can become accessible via Windows Network Neighbourhood and as a shared network drive.
JLAN Server is a commercial product that provides a Java based CIFS/SMB server. It fronts a virtual file system that can be mapped to a physical file system, a database or any other type of content repository. The easiest route for us to take would be to provide a JLAN virtual file system implementation of our repository API, however, as mentioned above it is a commercial product and therefore not distributable in an open source project.
An attempt to decompile the downloadable demo was unsuccessful. It appears they have obfuscated the code supplied in the JAR files, so most of the classes and their contained methods are reduced to a, b, c, d etc. Furthermore, most those classes with meaningful names fail to decompile!
Using the downloaded demo I was able to setup a CIFS server that was accessible across our ALFRESCO domain. I used the JavaFileDiskDriver virtual file system to point to a local folder on my machine. I was then able to browse the share via Network Neighbourhood and as you would expect to map a drive letter to the share. Derek was also able to browse the network and read the contents of my fake repository via Network Neighbourhood. Although I was using a JLAN class to provide the file system it would be fairly easy to replace this with an implementation that used our sevice APIs.
Setting up the server however revealed how much of a mammoth task it will be to provide our own CIFS server. I know we wouldn't need quite as much support as JLAN has but the installation guide has 30+ pages of configuration options! It's also evident seeing the debugging statements coming from the server that a great deal of networking knowledge (NETBIOS) is going to be required to implement anything useful, something I certainly don't have!!
JLAN Server has 2 built-in authentication approaches, one is handled by JLAN itself and the other is a pass through authenticator allowing a domain controller to be used to authenticate clients.
I excercised both these approaches above. The local authentication specified users in the config file. Using this scheme I was presented with a login dialog to gain access to the test share I created. Once I switched to using the pass through authentication my network credentials were used to give me access to the share with no logon required.
JLAN Server's code was not available so I can't comment on it's quality or complexity but if the jCIFS code is anything to go by it will be horrendous in terms of complexity. It's obvious that to implement this stuff you will have to have intimate knowledge of the contents of each packet (to the byte level) that makes up a request to make anything useful happen!
I've had to learn a fair bit just to get this far in the investigation and I've only scraped the surface. Given that and how much code there is to produce (CIFS has over 100 commands detailed in a 155 page spec), to implement this ourselves will take way more than the 2 and a half months we have left!

I'd buy this guy for sure. i must echo the sentiment of awesome concept battle brak
very cool character & i would buy it but i can also do without too. i'm em par shall when there are so many characters yet to be made.
You click on the picture image (mountain with sun), paste the link and it puts it in your textbox. Like this:
Anyway, I think the Alien Enforcer "Zodax" is really cool! He actually appeared in the MVC comic. Evil-Lyn's dying, the Sorceress touches her head and sees this as one of the images in her mind:
He's the second from the left. I think the one beside him is STROBO!
Take part in Illumina Day! Let people know who she is and help get her in MOTUC.
You can join the Illumina Facebook page here!
Zodaq and Zodax both sound cool.
I'd love a whole slew of CEs.
Perhaps, but the advantage, I think, must go to Zodaq rather than Zodax for this reason: if the names all sound alike then there is this suggestion that, you know, they all know who is who and don't give a second thought to the homophonous names, and if we mundane non-Cosmic Enforcer types are confused, then that's just too bad. In other words, a name like Zodaq underscores the detachedness I would think comes with the whole Cosmic Enforcer persona. What would "Zodax" suggest? It just sounds like, "Oh, I want my name to sound like Zodak and Zodac but not exactly like them," at least to me anyway.
Still remembers we paid excessive shipping on Battleground Teela. Is confident Matty will resolve the issue and make it right for us.
I like the name Zodax, mainly because of the 200X "X" component
I guess it's a cool idea, just not for MOTUC really.
"All of the figures in the new MOTU Classics line will have a look that is an homage to the original toy lines from the 1980s." - Scott "Toyguru" Neitlich
Fantastic character!
Excellent work BB!
I don't think he should be named similar to Zodac(k). They should all have their own names. I say this because I believe Zodak took the name of his mentor as a sign of respect in taking his place.
FOURHORSEMEN MOTUC Zodac by ~Sllohcin on deviantART
I do agree on the naming being different when it comes to official MOTUC canon. I like option 5 above!
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
Check out my artwork: http://aarondoyle.deviantart.com/gallery/
Thanks I'm sold on the yellow skin but I like #5 the best in overall make-up. I left the green one in there because that was my original choice.
You nailed it for the name
No thx! I want other figures- strongarm, fang man, karg, calix, scorpia....
Yep. I also like option 5 the most!
If there are several Cosmic Enforces (I prefer having just 3 in Eternia from past, present and future) maybe they call themselves "Zoda" followed by a letter (Zodaa, Zodab, Zodac, and so on) like Agent 007 (ey, with the secret spy it works!).
I like his real name being Xeno, Xenox or Xenon

I have wanted the alien zodiac for. Long time. Would love to see him pop up in motuc...
Photog is here! thank you, Mattel!
Now how about some mini-comics love (like Lodar, Geldor, Dakon......)? And Mermista?
I don't care to see one cosmic enforcer per generation. I would like them to be like the Green Lanterns, where there are many always. I would like to see Zodak with Zodac and this character along with others, even a shadow beast size cosmic enforcer equivalent to Kilowog.
Oh yes, bring on this green alien. Longer forearms connected to the arms please. A female Enforcer would make a great addition to the ranks. Two Pack?
Planet Claire has pink air

Nice idea! A NA cosmic enforcer should be added at some point.

The way to download, compile, install and run KDevelop depends on how you want to download it and where do you want to install it to. So follow the step by step instructions below.
WARNING: You have to remove all KDevelop packages provided by your distribution. If you don't do that, binary compatibility issues will eventually lead to crashes and undefined behavior. To make sure, you can search for KDevelop libraries with this command:
find /usr/ -type f -name "*kdev*.so*"
If no results are returned, you should be on the safe side.
Make sure to install the required KDE development packages, see KDevelop4/requirements for a list of requirements. In particular make sure to install KDE4 kdelibs development packages. At least following packages are required:
In Fedora 13: kdelibs-devel kdebase-workspace-devel
In Ubuntu 11.04: cmake gcc g++ kdelibs5-dev zlib1g-dev kdebase-workspace-dev libgrantlee-dev
In Debian: same as ubuntu, but you also need to compile at Grantlee in at least version 0.1.7, though I suggest to use the latest stable release. See http://downloads.grantlee.org/ and http://www.gitorious.org/grantlee/pages/Home
When configuring kdevplatform, these packages are needed to remedy the following errors: kdelibs5-dev: ERROR: Could not find KDE4 kde4-config zlib1g-dev: Could NOT find ZLIB
When configuring kdevelop, these packages are needed to remedy the following errors:
Could NOT find KDE4Workspace
cd $HOME/src tar xvjf kdevplatform.tar.bz2 tar xvjf kdevelop.tar.bz2
git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kdevplatform $HOME/src/kdevplatform git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kdevelop $HOME/src/kdevelop
Please note that this branch will depend on MovingRange in Kate, meaning KDE 4.5 and above. This can be updated by doing sudo yum update kdelibs or equivalent.
cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform ; git checkout -b 1.5 origin/1.5 cd $HOME/src/kdevelop ; git checkout -b 4.5 origin/4.5
You can do a system install of KDevelop in the default path (/usr/local), which needs root privileges, or you can install it locally for your user only. The instructions for both are slightly different; first we'll explain the local install.
In both cases you need set the KDEDIRS environment variable to point to the installation directory of both KDE4 and KDevPlatform.
This will tell KDE core components where to search for plugins and other data related to KDE apps and contains just a list of paths (aka prefixes) where KDE libraries and/or applications have been installed.
Assuming that you have the KDE4 libraries installed in /usr (these are often from packages and installed in /usr or /opt/kde and is distro specific, if unsure ask your distro where it is), you'll have to append it to the KDEDIRS below.
The following commands give instructions to install in $HOME/kdevelop4; you can of course replace it with something else. You don't need root permissions to install KDevelop this way.
First, compile and install KDevPlatform:
mkdir -p $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/kdevelop4 ../ make make install
Then compile KDevelop, telling it to use the just-installed KDevPlatform:
mkdir -p $HOME/src/kdevelop/build cd $HOME/src/kdevelop/build cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$HOME/kdevelop4 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/kdevelop4 ../ make make install
Before running KDevelop, you need set the KDEDIRS environment variable. Assuming that you want to install KDevelop4 into $HOME/kdevelop4 then you need to run the following:
export KDEDIRS=$HOME/kdevelop4:$KDEDIRS kbuildsycoca4
Note that this will set the KDEDIRS variable only for that shell (so launching kdevelop from desktop launcher will fail). A good solution is to add to a small script to $HOME/.kde/env that sets the KDEDIRS variable to proper. For example you may call it $HOME/.kde/env/kdedirs.sh and it could contain:
#!/bin/bash export KDEDIRS=/usr/local/:$KDEDIRS
And it needs to have execution permissions. If you want to use it directly, you'll have to logout of your current KDE session and log in again, otherwise this script won't be sourced of course...
First, compile and install KDevPlatform:
mkdir -p $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build cmake ../ make sudo make install
Then compile KDevelop:
mkdir -p $HOME/src/kdevelop/build cd $HOME/src/kdevelop/build cmake ../ make sudo make install
Before running it, you need to set KDEDIRS properly as in local installation but with path as /usr/local/.
If you need extra functionality, you can get and install additional plugins for KDevelop4. Stable plugins can be found in Extragear: https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/kdevelop/plugins . Experimental, potentially unstable or even broken plugins can be found in Playground: https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/devtools/plugins .
Many plugins you can find there (e.g. PHP, CSS, QMake, ...) require the KDevelop-PG-Qt parser generator. You can find that here: https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/kdevelop/utilities/kdevelop-pg-qt
Check the sources out and compile the plugin using the same steps as above, e.g. for PHP:
mkdir -p $HOME/src/kdev-php/build cd $HOME/src/kdev-php/build cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$HOME/kdevelop4 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/kdevelop4 ../ make make install
Make sure to run kbuildsycoca4
after installation (see above)!
Just execute:
(If you want to ease it, you can add $HOME/kdevelop4/bin/ to your $PATH env variable).
If you find any compile problems with KDevelop4 please report them on our developer mailing-list. If you find problems while using KDevelop4 use, the bugzilla bug database which is only for bugs (not for compilation issues).
If you find bugs that cause program to crash and you are going to make bug report out of it, please re-compile the program with debug symbols. This is done with options
passed to cmake in configuration step. Also be sure to update kdevelop and kdevplatform to newest version, your bug might be already fixed.
If you got the sources from the git repository on step 2. then you can update by issuing the following commands:
cd $HOME/src/kdevelop/build && sudo make uninstall cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build && sudo make uninstall cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform && git pull cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build && make && sudo make install cd $HOME/src/kdevelop && git pull cd $HOME/src/kdevelop/build && make && sudo make install kbuildsycoca4
cd $HOME/src/kdevelop/build && make uninstall cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build && make uninstall cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform && git pull cd $HOME/src/kdevplatform/build && make && make install cd $HOME/src/kdevelop && git pull cd $HOME/src/kdevelop/build && make && make install kbuildsycoca4

I'm so glad this issue is about beaches, because I've always preferred the edges of continents to the middle. Middles are so…so totally land-locked. Know what I mean? One Christmas I was persuaded to visit the Middle, which can be anywhere from New Jersey to Las Vegas, but in this case was Wyoming. We landed in SaltLake instead of Jackson Hole because a plane skidded off the runway in a blizzard and the airport was closed. I had to take a bus for many terrifying hours in the dead of night through mountain passes where avalanches threatened every second of the way. I couldn't wait to get back to a coastline, with lots of water and sand for relaxation, where everything seems right with the world.
I know that other Sarasotans completely agree, including all those who went to All right, I will tell you about the opening of Tale. It was very exciting. Lots of Asolo supporters, like Carol and Howard Philips, Ulla Searing, Virginia Toulmin and Elita Kane were there, along with recognizably famous actors. It was a Broadway first for a But we're back from all our travels, and now even in a time of political and economic turmoil, we can rejoice that we live on the Edge instead of the Middle. Let's hear it for our beaches. We may pretend to be in Consider the sand on Mediterranean beaches like St. Tropez, Cannes, Nice, Ostia (which is the Galveston of Rome)—even the beaches on the Costa Brava in Spain, the beaches of New England and the Pacific Northwest. People flock to tiny, gritty, gravelly patches you can't even sit on. Stone gardens, some of them. Tourists go for brief periods to look at other people pretty much naked. Many famous beaches, even in the glorious What On the other hand, we don't always indulge our inner beachie, especially after we've been here a while. On Siesta, The And we think of our beaches as for the entire family. When thongs came in, they were banned on Lido Key. Remember that? Never mind if you don't, it was a long time ago. Family values didn't permit the kind of display that might lead to South Beach-like excesses and the need for crowd control. The ban made national news, so it had to be lifted. Now you can see everybody's everything, but no one cares. Dog person Deb Knowles rants about a different ban. "What kind of beach won't allow dogs?" she asked peevishly. Deb won't go anywhere without Chiquita, her "I take Chiquita to Susie Karp's beach," Deb told me. She lives in a private beachfront community on Siesta Key. Susie Karp walks there with Dick Smothers. Deb introduced them, and now they're beachcombers together. Over on Westway, Ron and Rita Greenbaum are still nutty for their beach after a couple of decades. But all they have to do is go outside. When I asked Alexandra Jupin and John Bean if they went to the beach, there was a long pause. "The beach?" Alexandra said. "Yeah, do you go to the beach?" I asked. "I'm so glad you brought this up. I used to walk And before I had Rocky to think about, I used to go there, too. "My mother used to say if everybody walked in the sunshine and dug in the dirt more we'd need fewer psychiatrists," Alexandra added, and she vowed to get back into the habit. Finally, I asked a visitor, Gordon Greenberg, who directed Working at the Asolo last season and returned this year to direct Barnum. "Do you ever go to the beach?" "Do I!" this upper West Side New Yorker told me. "I play tennis and go to the beach every day. Fantastic!" Just when we

Read important information on DxOMark Sensor ranking and test results specific to medium-format cameras.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Professional portrait and landscape photographers often use medium-format cameras because of their superb performance under controlled lighting conditions. However, as these cameras are definitely not designed for so-called "action photography" scenarios, they generally do not perform well with respect to DxO Labs' Low-Light ISO metric. Because of this inherent low-light limitation, medium-format cameras do not receive top marks on the DxOMark Sensor Overall Score, even though they may show outstanding performance with respect to Color Depth or Dynamic Range. |

ZT42 and ZT50
Upgrades to Gravely's ZT42 and ZT50 zero-turn mower include an improved mowing deck, enhanced engine performance and a host of features designed to reduce operator fatigue. ZT height-of-cut selector makes adjustments simple and quick. The pin selector was replaced with a more-efficient shifter-style selector, and the foot lever is still used to raise and lower the deck.
- Both feature a washout port that includes a simple quick connect coupling for a standard garden hose, allowing operators to clean out the deck after each use to maintain optimum cutting performance.
- Five-position seat-adjustment lever with a two-inch range of motion is easy to reach and requires little effort by the operator.
- ZT42 features extended discharge opening that increases air flow into the bagger tube.
- ZT42's engine hood is designed isolate the operator from engine noise, yet pivots fully forward to make for easy engine access
- ZT42 features a 42" deck and a 20-hp Kawasaki V-twin engine
- ZT50 features a 50" deck and a 22-hp Kawasaki V-twin engine

Old team photo..
Hello. My name is Carly Mellott. I am from Princeton, Minnesota I play for the town I grew up and still live in. I started my experience in 2010. I met my coaches along the way and still know them all well. Cassy Gatewood, Roberta Hewitt, Chad Older, Richard Hewitt (who had to transfer to another team), Neil Quast, Gary and Shelly Rudlong and all of my other teammates. I love going to practices and tournaments. If I have a bad day at work or just have a crisis in life, I think about my team and how much they mean to me. I know I have a lot of volunteers working in our area too. I always have a ton of fun with the coaches and my team. I just wanted people to know how much my team means to me. I am an athlete but in all we're all in this together. Go OLYMPIANS!

Just 5 years after the official release.
Which means we won't see UE4 based games until 2018. Lovely.
As long as Microsoft and Apple are preventing games that run on their platform to run on Linux, we will see this happening. Now finally their money is starting to run out and real competition will be allowed! Porting most any game to Linux is only trivial, the real stop is the company deals&policies.Ryan Gordon ported Unreal Engine 3 to Linux years ago but ultimately was never permitted to release the Unreal Tournament 3 Linux client...
On intel 4000 it's a segfault, while displaying the launcher for the blink of an eye.
Is that a debug build with all debug symbols...?Code:Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x09a21c8e in TOpenGLShader<(ERHIResourceTypes)8, 35632u>::Compile() () (gdb) bt #0 0x09a21c8e in TOpenGLShader<(ERHIResourceTypes)8, 35632u>::Compile() () #1 0x09a039c7 in FOpenGLDynamicRHI::CreatePixelShader(TArray<unsigned char, FDefaultAllocator> const&) () #2 0x08e9bd76 in FShader::InitRHI() () #3 0x099fc778 in FOpenGLDynamicRHI::Init() () #4 0x09a2dc4e in FOpenGLViewport::FOpenGLViewport(FOpenGLDynamicRHI*, void*, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int) () #5 0x09a2c46f in FOpenGLDynamicRHI::CreateViewport(void*, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int) () #6 0x090c8b5d in FViewport::UpdateViewportRHI(unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int) () #7 0x09af9683 in FMacViewport::Resize(unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, int, int) () #8 0x09af91d1 in FMacViewport::FMacViewport(UMacClient*, FViewportClient*, wchar_t const*, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, int, int) () #9 0x09af222f in UMacClient::CreateViewportFrame(FViewportClient*, wchar_t const*, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int) () #10 0x088c0e5d in FEngineLoop::Init() () #11 0x088b80cd in GuardedMain(wchar_t const*, void*, void*, int) () #12 0x09af5e32 in appMacCallGuardedMain() () #13 0x09aff23b in main ()
Do you use mesa 9.0.1?
Now the door is open for port a bunch of games.
Mass Effect saga, Batman Arkham Asylum/City were my favorite choices to be the first.
And now that I think of ... Is there any way one can make function any UE3 game (like the above) by simply copying the content files (of Windows version) to the right folders of this "Dungeon Defenders" game?
