Hang Time --Technical -- Classic TrucksWritten on March 6, 2006 Installing Complete C-10 Doors From Classic Industries
More often than not, trucks of any lineage are used and abused, just like they were meant to be. And of the areas receiving the brunt of the abuse, the doors and beds undoubtedly take the most punishment. Even with pickup trucks that were spared the fate of a hardcore blue-collar life, the beds may survive, but the doors eventually succumb to the laws of gravity, requiring at the very least new hinge pins and latches. For those haulers beaten to submission, all is not lost--even the worst of the worst can be brought back to life.
If you've watched the progression of my '75 Cheyenne, you may have noticed that it was nowhere near pristine from the get-go. As a matter of fact, I was told on numerous occasions that I'd be better off starting with a nicer pickup. Even I agreed, but for some reason, I had a soft spot in my heart for the beat-up old Chevy, and I just didn't feel she was ready to be put to pasture quite yet. From the beginning, everything that the "nice" lady who sold the truck to me said was BS--the good-running engine had a flat cam and a couple spun bearings; the rebuilt tranny let Second gear go in a matter of weeks; the solid chassis turned out to be buckled--so my degreed pessimism came in handy. With all these obstacles, do you think a set of heavily sagging doors that refused to cooperate would deter me? I think not. In all actuality, it turned out to be easier to address than initially anticipated.
After consulting a couple of body repair experts, it was clear the best way to overcome the issues at hand was to replace everything--the average hinge replacement would have been a waste of time. The combination of constant abuse and neglect not only wore the hinges beyond functionality, it had literally began to rip the sheetmetal from the doors, not to mention the doorjambs where the strikers mount. After grabbing a set of (four) hinges from the local GM dealership, I headed over to Classic Industries in Huntington Beach, California, to grab a pair of reproduction doors. While I had the option of fully skinning the stock doors, it wasn't something I wanted to dive into, so the choice to go with complete doors was obvious--more importantly, the cost of the entire door was barely more than the skins!
First order of business was to have the new Classic doors jambed, which was done at the same time the front sheetmetal was at Caliber Collision in Costa Mesa, California. The front group was hung right away; the doors would wait until the truck was ready for its major bodywork at Jimenez Brothers Customs in Riverside later down the road, as nobody wanted to waste their time hanging and aligning if it all had to be done over again in the near future.
The day finally came when the Cheyenne was "admitted" for its body abuse rehabilitation. Among the long list of chores that JBC faced, the installation and subsequent hanging/aligning of the new doors was right there at the top. Fortunately, it was checked off sooner than later. At first, nothing jived, but once the wasted cab mounts were replaced, things pretty much started to fall into place (including the front clip, which gave us fits way back when!). Areas that still offered resistance were dealt with accordingly (in other words, "shimmed").
If your truck is suffering from severe door sag caused by rust or damage, let the following be proof that not everything is beyond repair.

Exterior door damage varies depending on the type of past use. In this case, the '75 Cheyenne's use was more like abuse, as both doors had definitely seen better days. The passenger side took the most punishment, specifically on the front leading edge, which became "tight" with the fender after a little incident.Even good old Mother Nature had her way with the lower rear corners of each door--which was in no way helped with a slab of Bondo cover-up along the way! The damage was further compounded by very poor fitment and latch alignment.Curing the physical door issues was simple: replace the whole thing rather than attempt to repair. Obtaining Classic Industries' complete door shells ('73-76) was a start, followed by having them jambed with PPG's Deltron California Gold Metallic. (You'll see more on the paint products in a later issue.)The door damage went way beyond the exterior shell, as shown here by a previously repaired tear at the upper hinge mount area. The repair worked, for a short while, until the tear permeated once again and kept on spreading--no new set of hinge pins was going to cure this!And speaking of tears, because of the hinge-oriented damage, the door had to be slammed (repeatedly) in order to sufficiently latch, which caused a nice tear in the jamb. This obviously would have to be welded up in order to make even the new doors close properly.OK, enough with the damage reports. Before removing the old doors, they need to be gutted. You won't need a manual to tackle this, but you will want to carefully bag all the little parts like clips, linkage rod retainers, etc., if you're going to reuse on the new doors.As for the larger items, such as the window regulators and door latches, inspect thoroughly for any broken parts, clean, and relubricate accordingly. Since the new doors will be receiving power windows, the manual regulators were set aside.
With the door off the truck for good, we could finally see the actual damaged caused from the hinges. It was only a matter of time before a large speed bump would have just dislodged the door entirely, as the sheetmetal around the mounting points was wasted.As for the hinges themselves, well, it was obvious they had been severely neglected, evident by the split bushings.Like the old doors, the old hinges were trashed and replaced with all new equipment. These gems came straight from the local Chevy dealer, but can be obtained from Classic Industries in either repro or factory replacement options.While the doors come on and off fairly easily, it takes a bit more time and patience working with the hinges, as access to the hardware is tricky.On the passenger side, you'll need to remove the glovebox, and it's a good idea to pull the dash, as well.Having the right hardware for jobs like this is important. GM used special bolts for most body components, and the door hinges were no exception. We neglected to obtain new ones, so it was a mad rush rounding up existing ones with decent threads and heads that weren't rounded out.With the hinges on and roughly lined up, it was time for the new doors to be hung. As you can see, the door shells were left in the factory primer rather than being painted with the jambs. This was done primarily because most any replacement body panel will need at least some amount of bodywork due to slight damage from shipping and handling.
As far as alignment is concerned, you have a lot of variables working against you in a situation like this. First and foremost is the cab, which needs to be mounted as squarely as possible (we installed new mounts). If you can set the upper, lower, and rear door gaps evenly but have difficulty with alignment against the fender edge, stock up on shims, and don't be afraid to use them on the door or the fender.With the driprail strip removed, you can see we got a nice even gap in this area. If you're after an absolutely perfect gap the entire perimeter of the door, stock up on patience and plan to do some corrective surgery, as these trucks never had them to begin with.As stated previously, it took some shims, but the forward gap became quite acceptable with very few added to the fender. Apparently, affects of a collision earlier in life remain to haunt the Cheyenne, but persistence managed to qualm them sufficiently.Overall, the new doors fit better than anticipated. Gaps and alignment against the top edge, both forward and aft vertical planes, and along the rocker panel were all satisfactory. More importantly, the bodyline was dead on, meaning the forthcoming stainless trim will not have to be "fudged"!The door alignment session was put on hold until the paint and body were completed. Once that huge task was handled, a complete weatherstripping set was ordered from Classic Industries, which afforded new door seals so the final adjustments could be taken care of.If we had fully aligned and fit the doors prior to paint, they'd have been off once the new seals were installed. Even when these rubbers get settled, we may have to adjust here and there. Make sure the latches and strikers are in good working condition, as they will ultimately affect the end result, as well.Final assembly of the truck entailed the wrap-up of the door aligning. New seals allowed JBC to torque down the mounting hardware snugly and adjust the latches appropriately. All that remains now is assembling the power windows and installing the stainless. (Note the lower rear two-tone break is off--that's a masking illusion, not misalignment!)

Tanner Zimmerman embraces his role as an on-field leader for Grand Valley High School's football team as much as he embraces his role as the Cardinals' spiritual leader.
He leads his team in prayer before and after games and practices, doing it on an as-needed basis during practices. Every once in a while, a teammate will come to Zimmerman for something other than football.
Zimmerman embraces every chance he gets to do that, as it's a role that was passed down to him from previous team captains who filled an identical role.
"I want to be a leader for my team, and not just on the field, but spiritually," Zimmerman said. "I think that's important to have, and anybody's welcome to it."
For all that Zimmerman does to help enhance the Cardinals' spiritual faith, his on-field play has helped raise Grand Valley to a higher level. The senior running back had 272 rushing yards and four touchdown runs in the Cardinals' 41-20 Class 2A Western Slope League victory against Basalt on Oct. 12.
What's more, 194 yards and those same four TD jaunts came in the second half, helping Grand Valley (6-1 overall, 4-1 league play) rally from a 13-12 third-quarter deficit.
Zimmerman's big game came in part due to the absence of Jacob White, who sat out with an ankle injury after tallying 485 rushing yards in Grand Valley's first six games. And although Zimmerman missed the Cardinals' Aug. 31 game at Meeker, his performance against the Longhorns gave him 1,074 yards and 11 TD runs for the season.
He leads the league in rushing and is ranked fifth in Class 2A in rushing yardage, and he'll try to expand on that when Grand Valley plays at Aspen at 7 p.m. Friday in a critical league game.
When this past Friday's game was finished and the Cardinals had huddled in the end zone at Toby LeBorgne Stadium following the victory, Zimmerman had the final word by leading the Cardinals in a team prayer. That combination of on- and off-field leadership from Zimmerman has become a vital element in Grand Valley's success, said coach Mike Johnson.
"When you have good leadership from individuals on your team, it makes your team accountable to its peers, not just its coaches," Johnson said. "It's developed a bit of a brotherhood where the guys are out there working for each other."
Granted, Zimmerman doesn't sing hymns on the field or kneel after every touchdown like former Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow. He even jokes that he "doesn't have quite the media message board that [Tebow] does."
He does, however, keep his faith in mind whenever he's on the field.
"Anything I get and any success I have, I believe I owe that to Jesus," Zimmerman said. "Wanting to follow him has developed morals in me that include working hard on the football field.
"When I'm facing something hard or some kind of adversity, I always think of Phillipians 4:13: 'I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me,'" Zimmerman said. "I've shared that with teammates before. For me, football is a great platform to help show people the love I've experienced through my relationship with God."
With that belief and philosophy coming while playing in a sport as violent as football, Zimmerman feels Grand Valley's focus should shift toward the Cardinals' overall "team" concept. In his mind it's worked, and it's a concept that's caught on with many of his teammates.
And the overall hope, Zimmerman said, is that Grand Valley's belief and success will carry on well into November.
"You have to believe in something bigger then yourself, and that's always been the name on the front of the jersey," Zimmerman said. "But that thing that's bigger than ourselves, we like to think that's God. We want to play for him, this town, this school and this community because before each game, I'll pray and say, 'Give us strength, and don't let us forget who we're playing for.'"

January truck tonnage takes a weather-influenced step back, reports ATA
February 19, 2014
Difficult winter weather conditions played a significant role in January truck tonnage, according to data released by the American Trucking Associations (ATA) today.
Seasonally-adjusted (SA) truck tonnage in January dropped 4.3 percent, following a 0.8 percent drop in December. The index was at 124.4 (2000=100), and the all-time high was November's 131.0, which was 2.7 percent better than December. On an annual basis, the January SA was up 1.2 percent.
The ATA's not seasonally-adjusted (NSA) index, which represents the change in tonnage actually hauled by fleets before any seasonal adjustment was 122.3 in January, down 0.3 percent from December's 122.7 and was down .01 percent annually.
As defined by the ATA, the not seasonally-adjusted index is assembled by adding up all the monthly tonnage data reported by the survey respondents (ATA member carriers) for the latest two months. Then a monthly percent change is calculated and then applied to the index number for the first month.
"Like most economic indicators, truck tonnage was negatively impacted by bad winter weather in January," said ATA Chief Economist Bob Costello said in a statement. "The thing about truck freight is that it's difficult to catch up. Drivers are governed by hours-of-service regulations and trucks are limited to trailer lengths and total weights, thus it is nearly impossible to recoup the days lost due to bad storms. January wasn't just one storm, it was several across a large part of the country. Therefore, I wouldn't panic from the largest monthly drop in two years. I've heard from many fleets that freight was good, in-between storms. The fundamentals for truck freight still look good."
Weather aside, many shippers and carriers indicate that things are moving along as expected when viewing the market on a seasonal basis.
But they concede that such atypical weather patterns are making an imprint on supply chain operations, with far more contingency and capacity planning being required than normal.
Morgan Stanley analyst Bill Greene said in a research note that the underperformance in the NSA index reflects a tough sequential comp and severe weather conditions, adding that truckload carriers suggest underlying freight fundamentals remain solid.

Orlando, FL (Sports Network) - Chris Czerapowicz had 15 points and nine
rebounds to lead Davidson to a 63-60 win over West Virginia in the semifinals
of the Old Spice Classic on Friday.
De'Mon Brooks had 12 points and five steals while Jake Cohen and Clint Mann
each netted 11 points for the Wildcats (3-2), who will take on the winner of
No. 17 Gonzaga versus Oklahoma in the championship on Saturday.
Juwan Staten had 15 points and Deniz Kilicli notched a double-double with 10
points and 11 rebounds for the Mountaineers (1-2), who were a dismal 8-of-17
from the free throw line.
West Virginia led 32-30 at the break, but Davidson took a 46-37 lead by the
midway point of the second half.
The Mountaineers cut it to 58-57 with one minute left, but Czerapowicz buried
a 3-pointer from the corner to put Davidson up by four.
Terry Henderson answered back with a 3-ball to pull WVU within 61-60 with
14 seconds remaining, but Nik Cochran sank a pair of free throws and Staten's
3-point attempt at the buzzer rimmed out as Davidson held on for the win.

Dancing With The Stars
Dancing With the Stars' 10 Best and Worst Dances of 2011
It's been quite the year for Dancing With the Stars — in and out of the ballroom. For now, let's just focus on the dance floor action with a list of the best and worst routines of 2011. We saw some impressive dances last spring on Season 12 and this past fall on Season 13. The best dances of all time? Maybe not. However, we definitely didn't see the worst either. These "bad" dances may be not be stellar, but they're not even close to Master P territory. (Ouch.) So here's a look at our top five best and "worst" routines from a pretty good year — and here's to a great 2012!
5. Hines Ward & Kym Johnson, Season 12
SambaHines and Kym got the first perfect score of the season for their fantastic Week 9 Argentine Tango, but Hines had to do a lot more work — and it was dang good! — in the fast, fun Samba he dedicated to his mother on Season 12's Personal Story Week. This light, playful routine set to Earth, Wind & Fire's "Fantasy" captured the best of Hines and Kym, who definitely deserved their Mirror Ball trophies.
Video: Watch! Hines Ward & Kym Johnson's Story Week Samba
4. J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff, Season 13 Freestyle
It's still exhausting just to watch this incredibly ambitious Freestyle. It had a relentless pace, but still managed to stay on point. There's no question it was a showstopper and certainly the best Freestyle not only of Season 13 but of the entire year. (Sorry, Hines! Loved your marching band routine, but...)

3. Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Season 12 Foxtrot
As patriotic citizens of the good ole US of A, we feel it's our duty to salute this Season 12 American Week routine as one of the best of 2011. It has nothing — NOTHING — to do with Maks strutting around with that little flag tattoo on his chest. Who cares about those tight pleather pants and the flag belt buckle? It's all about the dance, people! Which, if we're honest, wasn't much of a Foxtrot. But, man, was it a lot of everything else. Oh, and Kirstie was there, too! She did stuff…we think.
Video: Watch: Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy's Foxtrot
2. Ralph Macchio & Karina Smirnoff, Season 12 Waltz
Season 12's Classical Week was amazing. Period. And this was our favorite routine of them all. Music can make or break a routine even more than the costumes, and this week Ralph and Karina lucked out by landing the gorgeous theme to Romeo & Juliet. No wonder this routine inspired Karina's new Capulet boot!
Video: Ralph Macchio & Karina Smirnoff's DWTS Week 4 Waltz
1. Ricki Lake and Derek Hough, Season 13 Tango
This Tango is going to go down in DWTS history as one of the most inspired routines ever. It was Derek's Season 10 1950s Paso Doble all over again. Derek made the unnatural pairing of the Tango and thePsycho theme look natural and effortless — executed perfectly, thanks to Ricki's hard work and natural talent. Maybe this routine can't top Drew Lachey and Cheryl Burke's "Save a Horse (Ride A Cowboy)" Freestyle, but it belongs on the list of favorite DWTS routines of all time.
Video: Ricki Lake & Derek Hough Score Perfect 10s on DWTS Season 13, Week 4
5. Mike Catherwood and Lacey Schwimmer, Season 12 Foxtrot
"Psycho Mike" went home first on Season 12, but we would've loved to hear more of his self-deprecating humor. No, he couldn't dance but at least he entertained ... which was more than Wendy Williams did. The judges gave this routine a score of 13 out of 30, the lowest score of the night. It wasn't that bad! Not that it was great. Still, we give Mike at least a 25 out of 30 for good sportsmanship.

4. Wendy Williams and Tony Dovolani, Season 12 Foxtrot
Tony Dovolani needs a dancing intervention. He either gets paired with divas, stiff dancers or good dancers with limited fan bases. He deserves at least one Jennifer Grey type and it sure as heck wasn't Wendy Williams. She was a stiff-dancing diva on Season 12. Week 3 asked the celebs to share personal stories but Len Goodman said Wendy's DJ-inspired Foxtrot was "more suited to the radio." There was no oomph, no fluidity. Where's the beef? Not with this Wendy.

3. Ron Artest and Peta Murgatroyd, Season 13 Cha-Cha-Cha
Poor Ron/Metta World Peace had to dance first on the Season 13 premiere and this wild, in-your-face routine to "Krazy" was a bit much for viewers to handle right out of the gate — especially with Metta dressed like a shiny pimp. He changed into something more appropriate when he and Peta re-danced the Cha-Cha on the Season 13 finale, but this is the look that lives in our memories. Sorry, man.

2. Chaz Bono and Lacey Schwimmer, Season 13 Rumba
It wasn't Chaz's lowest-scoring dance of Season 13, but between the not-exactly-romantic "Laugh At Me" song, the weird costumes and the fact that it was supposed to be a sexy Rumba, Chaz's most memorable year dance was just … well, memorable, but not in a good way.

1. Wendy Williams and Tony Dovolani, Season 12 Cha-Cha-Cha
The routine was set to "I'm Every Woman" but thankfully Wendy did not represent every woman out there on the Season 12 premiere. Because that would imply that every woman — including Wendy — was boring and worthy of a ballroom ban. This wasn't a Cha-Cha-Cha, it was a shuffle fest. If she was auditioning for The Walking Dead, great job. If she was trying to dance, oy. The judges were confused and disappointed at the firecracker's lack of performance power. It was like Kim Kardashian not knowing how to shake her assets all over again.

Ana Ivanovic is hoping she's found the solution to her career free fall and his name is Heinz Gunthardt.
The Serb, who sits at No. 23 in this week's WTA rankings, made the announcement via her website today. The new appointment to Team NaturAna continues the coaching merry-go-round which included her time with the adidas Baller Development Program and Sven Groenefeld, a short, unsuccessful stint with Craig Kardon and a return back to the arms of adidas.
Heinz is a highly regarded coach who has worked with past Grand Slam champions, most notably with Steffi Graf and briefly with Jennifer Capriati.
Could this coaching switch do the trick for NaturAna? It remains to be seen but it can't hurt to try something new at this point especially with someone who's had great success coaching big forehands on the tour. If he gets her to toss the ball somewhere, anywhere other than the doubles alley then he's made his money.

Ivanovic hires Heinz Gunthardt as new coach
Labels: Ana Ivanovic, coaching, Heinz Gunthhardt, player sites, tennis

OMG! Ana hired a full time coach? Are my eyes deceiving me? This is fantastic news! And it's about freaking time. This should have been done months ago, but I love the choice.ReplyDelete
Ultimately it will come down to Ana or not on whether she gets out of this slump or not, but this isn't a bad guy to have at her side. First things first; fix that horrendous ball toss. Just like Sam Smith said during Fed Cup, lock her in some tennis court and don't let her leave until that toss is fixed. Once that is fixed, the rest of her game will follow. But it is absolutely vital than Ana gets that fixed and fixed quick.
Please don't fire him too soon Ana, lol. Glad to see team Ivanovic finally waking up. Maybe a new and more positive era in Ana's career has begun. *fingers crossed*
I hope Heinz can teach her how to deal with her nerves, too, or this could end up as another failed venture.ReplyDelete
Hi RiCHie!
*waves to natch*ReplyDelete
Yeah guys he's not a miracle worker lol! He had great talent to work with in Steffi. But at this point she needed to make a major change and shake things up. And like Curtis said having a coach watching her full time can only be a benefit.
The ball toss is def affected by the nerves so if she fixes the latter than the former should come along me thinks. Otherwise she should move over to doubles because she's already hitting her serve near the alley.
It really is up to her and how hard she's willing to work to get back.
Good for her. I hope he helps her get her forehand back because I always thought that was her best shot and she can do a lot of damage off that side.ReplyDelete
Speaking of Ana, is anyone else as pissed as I am that Ana is replacing Serena in the Billie Jean King Cup?

Dear Editor:
We were surprised to learn of a recent resolution passed by the Ulster County Legislature critical of the Department of Environmental Conservation's review of the proposed large development at Williams Lake in Rosendale. We find the resolution to be both inappropriate and misguided. As a matter of fact, language in the resolution echoes point-by-point previous claims put forward by the developer, Hudson River Valley Resorts, in promotional materials for the project.
It is of special concern that the resolution accepts as established fact project benefits that are conjectural and in dispute. It misrepresents apparent reasons for the delay in the overall SEQRA and DEC permit review processes and it ignores any discussion of the crucial environmental impact issues that have caused the review of this project to become so complex and lengthy.
The cited developer's estimate of over 1,300 construction-related jobs over 10 years is a spread-out over that entire period, not 1,300 each year, and many of these will likely come from outside both the town and county. As well, the alleged amount of anticipated tax revenue for Ulster County may be substantially reduced by the developer's application for IDA tax relief.
A close examination of the SEQRA review process would demonstrate that a major part of the overall delay is the direct result of the developer's slowness in producing complete documentation required for a rational detailed review. Indeed, for a number of years, the developer refused even to admit the true nature of the geological formation underlying the site, despite expert testimony from local and national authorities on the subject.
Most importantly, the Legislature's resolution fails completely to acknowledge the very existence and seriousness of the DEC's mandate -- to fairly and reasonably measure all potential negative environmental impacts of a project using detailed and credible evidence and analysis. The range of potential major negative impacts in this case is significant and has been verified by DEC and outside scientific experts. This in itself explains much of the review time line to date.
We have called your attention to the above issues because we believe that the resolution misrepresented the actual review context and process and unfortunately was thus one-sided in doing so.

At the request of mmorse in this thread http://www.zimbra.com/forums/zimbra-...ob-zimbra.html, I'm posting here about my recent experiences in an emergency migration off of hsphere for email hosting. We had about 500+ mail accounts and 78 domains.
In our situation the hsphere server that had housed the mail components had completely crashed. There was no backup really to go to, and we needed to migrate to zimbra anyway. Fortunately the Control Panel (cp server) didnt crash. It turns out that hsphere stores account information in a postgres database on the cp server. We found that we could access the postgres database directly on the cp server from commandline. We had to find the password to the database, and some googling showed that the password is stored in clear text in this file:
It stores the mailbox information in 3 tables. One for regular Mailboxes, One for aliases and one for forwards. The Mailbox database even has the user passwords in it stored in clear text. After dumping each of those databases, I imported them into excel so that I could use some excel concatenation commands to create the commands needed by 'zmprov' to import the users into zimbra. You could probably do this with other tools, I just used what I was already familar with.
Hsphere deals with aliases and forwards differently than zimbra, so those had to be handled specifically. Neither one of these really stores the full email address in association with the record. For aliases we didn't have very many, so I did those by hand in Zimbra. For forwards we had 100+ but we weren't sure what the full email address was of the account they were associated with was. Someone had to go in and manually check each domain to figure that out, although I bet a script could be written to compare the username with a list of usernames and then return the domain name to give you the full email address for the associated forward. Once we had documented the full email address, again it was a matter of using excel to create the zmprov commands to add the forward email commands to the zimbra database. I ended up using a command like the following for each forward:
zmprov ca email@example.com ptcf0rward displayName will description Forward-Account zimbraPrefMailForwardingAddress email@example.com zimbraPrefMailLocalDeliveryDisabled TRUE
This created the account, sets a password, sets the forward and then turns off local email storage for the account. I batched these using the zmprov batch method detailed in the zimbra documentation.
Once I had the accounts setup it was a matter of swapping the IP address on the server to be the same as the old hsphere mail server. While not optimal for various reasons, it was by far the easiest way to do it.
We never really allowed customers to auto-configure their own hsphere stuff, we always managed it for them. We never used many of the hsphere features and had even disabled stuff like quotas. The other components of hsphere are going to have to be migrated seperately, DNS, webhosting, etc. Again in this case our support staff did all the DNS changes, so going to a centrally administrated DNS solution will work fine. We did only some webhosting, but they'll be happy with a apache virtual setup. I've yet to do these steps but they are next. If we were using hsphere the way it was meant to be used, I might have gone a different route, and tried to maintain a system which would tie everything together in one admin console.
- All mailbox data was lost. This caused some pain I'm sure, but it sure simplified the migration process.
- zimbra doesn't do pop before smtp like hsphere did. We had to switch all the users that use us as the SMTP server to SMTP Auth and SMTP SSL. It was painful for a few days while we fielded the calls, but in the end it's a better and more secure configuration anyway.
- Need to register a commercial SSL cert so that Outlook won't complain. Working on that now.
- Need to migrate DNS and Webhosting separately. In progress.

Grumble Seat - July 2014Written by on May 2, 2014 Old New Guy, Or New Old Guy?
There's an old saying that goes "The more things change, the more they stay the same." Well rest assured, despite Rob's departure, you'll not notice any huge changes in R&C, with the exception of my name at the top of this column. Sure, we had our disagreements on occasion, but it was a pleasure to work with a guy who's been my friend for many years before I moved to this country. I wish him well, though you'll still be seeing his name here as he'll be freelancing for us. See, the more things change...
Regular readers will know I've been with R&C for seven years, so I'm hardly the "new guy," and will have picked up on the type of cars I like and the style of tech stories and project builds I undertake. Again, none of that is going to change. I have no brand loyalty, per se, though the 1928-29 Model A will always be the finest body style ever, at least in my world. I own an early Model A (of course!) lakes race car, a custom 1949 Chevy, and an odd doesn't-fit-any-particular-pigeonhole 1946 Ford sedan-turned-pickup. Oh, and a 318 1973 Dodge shortie van I plan on using to tow the race car to Bonneville. Not exactly loyal to one brand or era, huh?
Speaking of that 1949 Chevy, or "Project Purple Pig," I fully intend to get that wrapped up this year, now that the Tribute T is finished and my race car is getting close to being finished with a totally different powertrain. It's been dormant for way too long, and deserves to be finished, painted, and upholstered. Oh, and I have no plans to start running van stories, should that last paragraph have you wondering! Our mid-1960s cutoff will remain the same.
I'll still be tackling as many of my own tech stories as my new responsibilities will allow, as I firmly believe a hands-on approach by an author results in the best tech articles. In fact, I don't think you'll even notice anything different. I'm still opening mail from when Rob asked what you wanted to see in the magazine, and I welcome any and all input. Oh, and I hear ya: more customs. See, the more things change...

Flushing Meadows, NY (Sports Network) - Down a set and a break, the quest for
a calendar year Grand Slam for Mike and Bob Bryan was on thin ice.
However, the American twins regrouped and claimed a three-set triumph over the
Canadian duo of Daniel Nestor and Vasek Pospisil in the third round of the
men's doubles at the U.S. Open.
The Bryans rallied for a 6-7 (1-7), 7-5, 6-2 victory on Sunday afternoon at
Ashe Stadium.
Nestor and Pospisil dominated the first-set tiebreak and earned an early break
in the second set to grab a 4-3 lead. Nestor then had his serve broken and the
tide quickly turned from there.
The top-seeded Americans broke serve again and rolled through the third set to
keep the Slam hopes alive.

When data-analytics company LatentView Analytics needed to hire 100 new employees last year—doubling its size in just a few months—the company knew it was time to upgrade its recruiting software system.
LatentView had been using JobScore, a social recruiting software system that recommends candidates for specific positions, but Pramad Jandhyala, the company's co-founder and director of human resources, thought the company needed a more integrated tool to meet its growth goals. So she transitioned recruiting to Salesforce.com.
"We liked JobScore, but most of our other HRIS activities were done on Salesforce," she says, referring to human resource information systems. "It just made sense to move to a single platform."
Today LatentView uses Salesforce.com's Vana HCM cloud-based recruiting tools to create configurable job postings, automatically process résumé attachments and post openings to thousands of job boards. The system's tracking reports also help Jandhyala plan for future hires based on past experiences. "We can tell which positions were hard to fill, and how many résumés we had to go through to find the right candidate," she says. "That helps me allocate the right resources and time for each recruiting effort."
And, because Vana is part of Salesforce.com, all of that recruiting data gets integrated into the company's talent management system. "It makes the recruiting process seamless," she says.
That seamless integration with an existing HRIS system is a common reason for choosing one recruiting tool over another, says Claire Schooley, a senior analyst at Forrester Research. Though it shouldn't be the only option. "It's nice to be with an all-in-one vendor, but it's hard to find one vendor that is equally strong in all areas."
And if recruiting top talent is a critical strategic goal for the company, going with your HR vendor's add-on recruiting application just to keep everything under the same roof may not be the best choice. Companies that view themselves as market leaders are more likely to extend the search to find the best-of-breed recruiting tools for their specific hiring needs, says Ray Wang principal analyst and CEO at Constellation Research Inc. "They will go with the best-of-breed tool for their market, even if it's from a different vendor," he says.
Fortunately, this is one area of HR software that having a separate vendor isn't a terrible idea, Schooley says. Unlike performance management, training or succession planning, most talent acquisition activities occur outside of the organization, and some companies may prefer not to pull external candidate data inside their firewall until they are certain they are going to hire them. "As a result, recruiting may be the easiest HR tool to keep separate."
Before choosing any tool, think about what your end goals are, says says Chris Gould, a former senior director of the talent acquisition solutions group for Aon Hewitt who now works for the consulting firm Black & Veatch. If your focus is on finding the best people, your choice may be very different than if your goal is tracking where the best candidates come from, or shortening the time to hire, he says. "When you start with what you want to accomplish, you are more likely to choose the best system for your needs."

text: By Russ PankoninThe Imperial Republican Little did Sid Harchelroad know that when Harchelroad Motors of Imperial and Wauneta donated a 2013 Chevy Corvette to the Cattlemen's Ball that the car would come back to Imperial. That's exactly what happened. When the winning ticket was drawn at the June 8 event in Paxton, it belonged to Char Wallin of Imperial. After being handed the ticket to announce the winner, Harchelroad told the crowd of more than 4,000 that it was one of his customers. That got a lot of hearts going in people from Imperial, Wauneta and Grant at the ball, Harchelroad said. Char Wallin picked up her new car Monday morning at Harchelroad Motors in Imperial. She said she was in "utter disbelief" when she heard she had won the car. She and her husband Steve had planned to go the ball but decided to stay home for other family obligations. So when her friends started texting her to let her know she had won the car, she thought it was a prank. A friend called to tell her she won and she still didn't believe it. Then Harchelroad called Steve to let them know they'd won. Then another friend called Char so she decided this was more than just a prank. She said there was a lot of screaming and dancing around going on after she realized she had really won the car. A maximum of 1,000 tickets were available for the drawing. Char said she and Steve had purchased two tickets. She said the money went to a good cause—cancer research. It was especially meaningful as well since her niece has just completed treatment for leukemia. Not only are the Wallins a customer of Harchelroads but they are now a two-Corvette family. Char said she gave the rights to their other Corvette to Steve. He said they plan to keep both cars for now. Even though they'll have to pay some taxes for the car, "I can't complain about that," he said. In honor of Gene Harchelroad Sid and Brian Harchelroad donated the car to aid the efforts of the Cattlemen's Ball, to raise money for cancer research in Nebraska. The donation was made in honor of their dad, Gene, who passed away in 2002 after a five-year battle with lung cancer. The Corvette is a 60th Anniversary Limited Edition Grand Sport Coupea valued at $75,000.

(KSDK Sports) -- Today marks the 11th anniversary of the last time the ST. Louis Rams played in a Super Bowl. That game was Super Bowl XXXVI, and our boys lost to the New England Patriots by a score of 20 - 17.
But as much as the sting of that loss has subsided for some, it lasts eternal for many other's especially since it was revealed years ago that the Patriots may have "cheated."
The storyline has since been called "spygate" as it involved the clandestine recording of Rams practices by members of the Patriots organization. Then NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell did look into the story, but later said that "no evidence" existed that the Patriots spied on the Rams during their walk-through the day prior to the Super Bowl.
For many in Rams Nation, the commissioner's explanation never held water, and the bad taste of defeat has never quite been washed away. Especially in light of the fact that the NFL later fined the Patriots and head coach Bill Bellichick and stripped the organization of a first round draft pick, all for taping signals from opposing coaches.
Perhaps it was the anniversary of the event that stirred today's commotion, but if you've been watching any of the coverage from New Orleans, you may have heard the discussion surrounding a recent interview of Marshall Faulk by CSN-New England's Tom Curran.
During the interview, Faulk voiced his belief that the Patriots cheated to win. "I'll never be over being cheated out of the Super Bowl," Faulk told Curran.
Faulk expressed his skepticism over league statements that all the tapes that were confiscated in the investigation of the Patriots' taping practices, had been destroyed.
Faulk is afraid the entire truth will never be realized.
"Obviously, the commissioner gets to handle things how he wants to handle them but if they wanted us to shut up about what happened, show us the tapes. Don't burn 'em," Faulk told Curran.
Faulk believes through their spying, the Patriots knew about new plays, allowing them to prepare for them on the field.
Faulk told Curran: "I understand Bill is a great coach," Faulk said. "But No. 13 [Kurt Warner] will tell you. Mike Martz will tell you. We had some plays in the red zone that we had not ran. . . . And a couple of plays on third down that we walked through also . . . And they created a check for it. It's just little things like that. It's either the best coaching in the world when you come up with situations that you had never seen before. Or you'd seen it and knew what to do."

This isn't chicken and dumplings no way.
It wasn't very flavorful and the dumplings were mushy. I think bisquick dumplings would have been better.
This did not turn out well for me. I followed the instructions but ended up with a soggy, soupy dinner that had little flavor. The chive cream cheese did nothing for the taste. I will not make this again.

U.S. Rep. John Barrow from Georgia's 12th district released an official statement today, on why he voted against the fiscal cliff plan the House approved Tuesday night.
Congressman Barrow said:
"When we began discussions on getting our nation's finances in order, our mission was to go big - reform our tax code, cut spending, and put us on a long-term path to deficit reduction. The package we're voting on today doesn't achieve any of these goals. I can't support a plan that does nothing to address our debt, doesn't make the necessary cuts in federal spending we need right now, and sets us up for another fiscal cliff in just a couple of months. I'm glad negotiators answered our call to block a pay increase for members of Congress, but it's not nearly enough to put this country on the right path. This proposal isn't a long-term solution -- it just kicks the can two months down the road.
"Our nation's debt is unsustainable, federal spending is out of control, and without seriously reforming our tax code, families in Georgia and across the country, regardless of their income levels, will pay more in taxes than is necessary. We need bold action to ensure that future generations aren't saddled with our debt, but partisanship is holding us back. I'll continue to work with my colleagues in the House to address these issues, but the bare minimum, like his package, isn't good enough for the folks I represent."

2008 Mopar NationalsWritten by on October 22, 2008 Contributors: Dave Young Money's tight, gas prices are up and you still can't stop Mopar fanatics!
Each year, the Mopar Nationals brings together one of the largest collections of Mopar-only cars and trucks. Dubbed "The Year of the Challenger," 2008 was no different. Even with the threat of high gas prices and an economy that's not doing too hot, Mopar fanatics came out to National Trail Raceway's expansive grounds for this great event. The Mopar Muscle staff was surprised by this fact, fearing that participation would take a major hit.
One element of the event that did receive a major hit was the racers. It seemed there was less than half the amount that raced last year. This is depressing since it's what keeps fans in the bleachers and is the focal point of the even for most of us. Mopar Performance showcased their new 2008 Challenger Drag Package. Both late-model Challengers were powered by new Hemi's and unleashed impressive 11-second passes in factory trim. They were certainly some of the more popular cars around the pit area since it seemed fans were glued to them. Dodge also brought out the all-new Challenger R/T and discussed some of the differences between the R/T and SRT models.
The swap meet area and old cars up for sale seemed to be way up. Tech Editor, Dave Young, feels this was a direct result of the economy. Many people are trying to clean out their garage and make a few bucks. There were some great deals to be had, so it's always a good idea to take a peek in the area, even if you don't need anything for you project. On the opposite end of the event you find the car show. Participation was about equal to last year and, as always, some pristine examples of classic Mopars were on display. New to the show field were the 2008 SRT Challengers. If you hadn't seen one in person before the event, there's a good chance you were sick of them by the time Sunday came rolling around. We feel it's safe to say that if you want to be different, don't buy one in Hemi Orange! There were at least 10 painted orange with very little representatives for the other fine hues, such as silver.
All-in-all, the event was spectacular. The weather was hot, but no where near as hot as previous years. A cool breeze overtook most of the grounds area and helped to keep most spectators and pedal fans happy and comfortable. We hope next year will offer the same great atmosphere and fans will continue to support the event and sponsors.

Bob Burtch's '70 Challenger caught our eye with its bright purple paint. The wheel and tire combination aren't for the faint hearted, as there was a lot of rubber in the rear.The explanation for all that tire came when we peered under the hood. A aluminum 500 cubic inch Hemi build by Keith Black slumbered between the shock towers. We can only imagine what this beat sounds like when it's fired up.Here's a look at James Elsmore's well-done '64 Plymouth Belvedere wagon. It's not too often you see wagons done up in a pro touring fashion.One of the coolest cars in the show was this Super Bee. From the look-at-me blue paint to the stunning wheels, the car was tasteful and understated.Here is the dramatic offset for the rear Torque Thrusts II wheels. There is a lot of tire that's hidden underneath the car, too.Here's something you don't see everyday, a Satellite with a mod top. As a matter of fact, Steve and Shawnee Martin's claim to fame is that it has been the only one at the NATS in five years.
The year of the Challenger is no lie. There were quite a few new Challengers entered in the show and could be seen throughout the grounds. As you can see, Hemi Orange was a very popular color.While there were plenty of Hemi Orange Challengers and a few examples painted in black, we only saw one in silver. We think it looks great no matter what color you paint it.It's hard to believe these are already coming out of service. We wonder what these Hemi-powered Chargers will call at auction.The nostalgia drags drew a lot of fans into the bleachers thanks to their monster burnouts and quick times.
There's nothing cooler than pulling the front tires off the ground in a car that is over 40 years old.Grave Digger II proves that one Hemi just isn't enough. This slingshot dragster is powered by twin Hemis, both featuring massive blowers.

Almost Home Dachshund Rescue Society
P.O. Box 9671
Greensboro, NC 27429
Mandy and Tinker are tweenie dachshunds who have been together their entire life, which we estimate to be between six and seven years. They came into rescue after their loving owners passed away. You can tell these lovely ladies grew up in a caring home - they are so well-mannered and sweet, and always ready to love on you.
The old saying goes that opposites attract, and these two are no exception! Tinker is an energetic and outgoing white and red longhaired piebald. She is playful and will do just about anything for attention. She and Mandy both weigh about 15 pounds, although Tinker is slightly larger.
Mandy is a laid-back and relaxed longhaired black and tan doxie with an unusually curly coat. She can be a bit shy at first, although she will vie for your attention once she gets to know you. Mandy is content to curl up on your lap or next to you on the sofa and just snooze.
Mandy and Tinker are very adorable and very sweet. Don't let their size fool you though; they would make wonderful walking pals for someone who enjoys a long stroll or a brisk walk. Of course they love bed time and all its privileges, which means they absolutely expect to sleep in the big bed. No worries though, you will hardly notice they are in bed with you. They sleep well and eat well and once they learn your routine, they will be completely accommodating to your schedule.
The girls mastered potty training a long time ago, and the challenges of puppyhood are no longer an issue. Mandy and Tinker say that they will absolutely need a home with a fenced-in yard for marathon sniffing and sunbathing sessions. And - of course - they will only be placed in a home together, since they are BFFs for life.
