Familiar faces will highlight the Canisius College women's cross country roster in 2013. The top seven runners return from 2012, highlighted by senior Mikelle Cala who placed first for Canisius in all six events.
The opposite can be said for the men's squad, who after recording its highest finish at the MAAC Championship in more than a decade, will see just two of its top-five runners compete in 2013. Chad Maloy – top finisher in each of the Griffs' races last season – will redshirt the 2013 season.
However, head coach Nate Huckle feels as though his freshman class is talented enough to replace the talent from the men's roster, and bolster the depth on the women's.
Cooper Roach and Michael Anvelt are the only two Griffs returning on the men's side that placed in the top-five during any of their events last season. In 2013, they are expected to play a leadership role.
"They're both extremely talented," Huckle said. "Mike was our second finisher at the MAAC Championships and Cooper was our second finisher at the NCAA Regionals, so neither shy away from big competition. I'm expecting them to be our leaders on the courses and to be consistently in our top three runners."
Chris Savageau, Joseph Schnitter and team captain Andrew Coy also return to the Canisius roster and could use their experience to crack the top five at points during the season.
With the lack of returners, the freshmen will be relied on heavily in 2013. Canisius has eight freshmen on the roster, including two New York State Champions in high school – Brennan Root in the steeple chase and Jeffrey Antolos who won two state cross country championships.
"This is probably the best freshman recruiting class that we've ever had at Canisius," Huckle said. "I feel pretty comfortable saying that it's better than our class last year because we've got more depth. I don't think we've ever had this much talent and depth at the same time in this program, and I'm very excited about it."
The surprise thus far has been freshman Xavier Savageau, who finished first in the team's time trial.
"For him to come in and be ahead of not only our other freshmen, but out top returners as well, it was a nice surprise," Huckle said. "He's just another guy who I wasn't originally counting on, who can come in and make a big impact."
The women finished sixth at the 2012 MAAC Championships last year, but the team remains nearly entirely intact from last season, bringing key experience to the 2013 season.
All seven runners who cracked the top five for Canisius return for the women. Cala, Morgan Atkins and Jamie Wallace highlight the roster, all finished in the top three in every event last season. They are joined by Robin Wagner, Brandi Pettit and Mary Kate Chambers who each finished in the Griffs' top five last season.
"They're all stronger than they were last year," Huckle said. "Every person ran faster than at the time trial last year, some of them significantly faster. I think everyone is in great shape."
With so many key returners back in the Griffs' lineup, the freshmen on the women's roster are expected to tighten the gapping at the top of the roster.
"We essentially doubled our talent on the women's roster," Huckle said. "We took every one of our top runners last year and we have an incoming runner that can match up with them. So we're really twice as deep as we were last year, which is great for our compression."
Haley Keene qualified for the New Balance Indoor Track Nationals, and brings high-level competition experience to the roster. Macey Walker and Katie Kerr are also expected to factor in this season for the Griffs. Catherine Phillips is also a new addition to the roster as a senior transfer, and Huckle expects her to play a role as well.
"I think the women are going to have that drastic step forward towards the top-tier of the MAAC this year," Huckle said.
Canisius opens the 2013 season Friday, Aug. 30, when it hosts the annual Little Three Championship. The Griffs are the reigning champions, and have swept both the men's and women's titles each of the last six seasons. The race will take place at Delaware Park with the women going off at 6 p.m. and the men at 6:45 p.m.

Possible Addict?
I had posted before that I got my wife to try shooting and she did and she liked it I got off work last week and came home and she said what do you want to do. I said I don't know and to my suprise she looked at me and said lets go shooting So we went up to the club and I pulled out one of our Genesis bows with a sight on it and she got the hang of using a sight real fast(The first time she shot the genesis had no sight on it) The treasurer of the club was up there and pulled out an old parker equalizer from his locker that was his sons years ago and he is just waiting for his grandson to grow into it and said that we could use it for as long and we want to make sure shes into it before we spent any money on a new bow. So I brought it home and put one of my old rests and a junky old sight that I bought on clearance about four years ago for reasons I still have no clue but anyway. I bought her some Beaman ICS Hunter junior Carbon arrow with the forty pound max. She got to shooting in the basement with me and.........Last saturday went to the plug and pellet with me for a 3D!!! She had some trouble with guessing the yardage and told her I would help her out if she wanted and we would'nt turn her score card in but her being bull headed as she is said no that she could do it. When she missed she always missed low and with that bow if your off alittle its alot. She had a really good time though and wants to do it again. we cant go for a walk now without her constantly stopping me to call out yardage on tree and light poles and everything. Well enough rambling I just wanted to share the story with you guys and girls. We had a good time and I really had a good time...... I mean I just got to spend a saturday watching a hot 23yr. old blonde shoot a bow, Is there anything better

Did you lube the pump cavity upon installation? Most don`t and this results in problems. Once I had a problem like yours, and I kept on chasing this problem for months, massive flooding problems. It turned out the vapour line from the fuel tank I plugged off, the tank couldn`t breathe so it was forming air pressure in the tank and forcing the fuel out of the only outlet it had, which was the fuel line going to the carb itself. One day I drove it and it seemed okay, I put $13.00 in gas in, got it in the next day to find it sitting on empty. After I shut it down the pressure build up caused it to force the fuel out of the boosters which filled the oil pan with about 3 gallons of gas. I was so ticked off at it I almost put a match to it.
However, set your fuel pressure at 4.5 psi. The test drive. You shouldn`t have any more issues. I don`t know what carb your using, but Edelbrocks and quadrajets don`t like anything over 5 psi. Some Holley`s and demons can use up to 9 psi, but all the ones I`ve used couldn`t use over 5.5 psi which is why I run it at 4.5 psi as I don`t like running it up to the borderline.
I don`t know about big block chevy`s, but small blocks don`t have a direct oil to the fuel pump, it simply gets oil that runs off the cam. Many install a new pump and don`t pack the cavity with lube which causes the pump to overheat which causes problems. If you didn`t lube your pump you may want to do so now. After you set the fuel pressure to 4.5 psi, check the float level and set it if needed.
Chevy mechanical fuel pump moving TOO MUCH fuel?
Have a 79 C-10 chevy that I put a 454 and TH400 into, in front of a 14 bolt full floating 4.10 axle.
Everything is solid and dependable as can be EXCEPT something to do with the fuel pump. The problem I am having is that at random, this engine floods like you wouldnt believe. Its like the fuel pump is moving more fuel than even that old big block could ever use. I'm shocked the engine didnt hydrolock. Whats even more wierd is that it is totally random. It was fine for a few months after I put this new fuel pump on it, and then one day it just started flooding like crazy. I pulled the carb apart and there were no obvious problems. I lowered the float a little to see if that helped and it didnt. Then I installed a new float. Still didnt help. Needle and seat are practically new, and are clean.
Finally it stopped flooding. I let it sit since I dont drive it a whole lot. Jumped in it a few weeks later and its flooding more than ever. I tried everything to get it to stop flooding and it wont. Fuel pressure is 6.5 PSI.
I finally decided to plumb a low pressure fuel pressure regulator into the system between the pump and the carb. Had to turn the regulator down ALL THE WAY to get it to stop flooding. That fixed it I thought. also installed a clear fuel filter between the pump and the regulator. Filter filled up 90% of the way with fuel. Everything was going great. Took off in the truck to get some more gas. Ran great up to the station, but as I left, it began acting like it was running out of gas. Pulled over to the side of the road and the fuel filter was low on fuel. I turned the regulator up a little and magically the truck started running perfect again. Took off, went to do what I took the truck out to do (unload trash at the waste dropoff facility) and left it idling the whole time. Got back in the truck, and started to take off and once again it acted like it was running out of fuel. It would idle but thats it. Got out and turned the regulator up some more and it started idling even better. Took off, nailed the throttle to the floor up a hill and it was just fine. Got home without any problems.
BTW each time I turned up the regulator, you could start seeing fuel begin filling the filter up again.
Its like when i left home, the fuel pump was pumping WAY WAY Too much fuel. And then when I left the gas station, it was pumping less than what it had been, thus the reason I had to turn the regulator up a little. And then again after dumping trash I had to turn it up even more, because the little bit I had turned it up at the gas station was no longer enough. The pump had obviously lowered its output again.
What the world is happening? I didnt know a mechanical fuel pump could ever pump TOO MUCH fuel, let alone randomly choose when it wanted to pump too much and when it didnt. Its just a stock replacement carter fuel pump from the parts store - nothing special - no high performance pump or anything.
BTW I never have any luck with NEW mechanical fuel pumps. For some reason, every time I have an OLD mechanical fuel pump fail (which isnt often - they are dependable as ever) the new ones never work or never work right - such as the case with this one. I always end up with electric pumps. I dont understand this either. Do companies not make good mechanical fuel pumps anymore?
I dont know what to do next. The pump is obviously the problem. I guess I should replace it? But IDK, it pumps plenty of fuel and pressure... in fact too much, at times, and just enough at other times. Makes no sense to me at all. Generally when something fails... it just stops working or stops working well enough. But not this time. Its working TOO well...

A study by the General Teaching Council for England reports parents across the social/economic spectrum are asking teachers to run sessions that will help them to understand the curriculum and what is being taught their children. They also want schools to provide them with "homework examples" so they can better assist their children. The report noted that due to dual career parents, the old model of mom sitting at the kitchen table and helping a child do homework is no longer feasible. Educators constantly urge parents to be their while children are doing homework as a means of getting involved in their lives.
Lost in the cry for enabling parents assist their children is a far more fundamental question– is doing homework of any worth in learning? I have taught for 51 years at all levels of education from grade 7-12 and then at the college level. In my experience there is not the slightest piece of evidence asking students to do additional examples or copy material out of textbooks is of any worth other than wasting time and making students bored with learning. Parents should be asking if homework assignments ask students to "use" what they have learned in meaningful ways rather than do "more" of what they have been doing in class. For example, if my children are learning causes of the American Revolution, the homework assignment should be asking them to investigate causes of family disputes since concepts such as economic causes or power causes are just as evident within a family as between nations. That type of "using what is learned" approach enables students to become learners not memorizers.
In all honesty, after 51 years of teaching over 15,000 teachers it is clear less than 1% have students engage in homework that stimulates critical or creative thinking.

No. 20/19 Wisconsin Rallies to Spoil Sykes' Career Night, Record Crowd
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Junior Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) scored 16 points in both halves en route to a career-high 32 in front of a program-record 9,906 fans at the Resch Center, but No. 20/19 Wisconsin (3-0) rallied past Green Bay (1-1) for a 69-66 victory in non-conference men's basketball action on Saturday night.
Building on his impressive resume in big games, Sykes finished with 32 points on 13-of-26 shooting from the field and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line.
Sykes scored the first eight Phoenix points of the night on a high-flying dunk on the game's first possession and a pair of three-pointers. Green Bay led 25-23 with 7:45 left before halftime, but Wisconsin scored the next nine points to claim its largest lead of the night (32-25). Using a pair of layups from Sykes, Green Bay closed the deficit to 34-29 at the break.
Sparking a 10-1 run coming out of the break, Sykes scored eight points to put the Phoenix in front 39-35 just three minutes into the second half.
Green Bay's lead increased to seven points (50-43) when junior Greg Mays (Chicago, Ill.) converted a three-point play with 11:30 remaining. Mays finished the contest with nine points, six rebounds and a blocked shot.
Wisconsin, who entered the game after wins over St. John's and No. 11 Florida, went on a 17-4 over the next six minutes to lead 60-54 with 6:03 on the clock. The Badgers still led 65-60 before Sykes drilled a jumper and made a floater in the lane to cut the margin to one (65-64) with 1:27 remaining.
After a pair of Wisconsin free throws, sophomore Carrington Love (Milwaukee, Wis.) drove down the lane and scored to again make it a one-point game (67-66) with 12 seconds left.
Traevon Jackson was fouled and split a pair of free throws, but Sykes' layup attempt was blocked by Frank Kaminsky with five seconds on the clock. Kaminsky connected on 1-of-2 free throws, giving Green Bay a chance to tie. Sykes caught the ball near midcourt, but his 25-footer bounced off the rim at the buzzer.
Green Bay was outrebounded by four in the first half, but led by sophomore Jordan Fouse (Racine, Wis.) ended the night with a 40-35 advantage on the glass. Fouse reached double digits in rebounds for the second-straight game, grabbing a game-high 12 boards.
Fouse and freshman Kenneth Lowe (Little Chute, Wis.) each totaled three of Green Bay's nine blocked shots. With senior Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) in foul trouble and limited to 18 minutes, Lowe played 21 minutes and ended the game with six points, four rebounds, three blocks and two assists. Senior Vince Garrett (Chicago, Ill.) added eight points and eight rebounds.
Kaminsky led the Badgers with 16 points while Sam Dekker added 13 and Josh Gasser ended the night with 11.
Green Bay returns to action next Saturday, hosting Minnesota-Duluth at the Resch Center at 7 p.m.

Moberg et al: Highly variable Northern Hemisphere temperatures?
by William Connolley and Eric Steig
The 10th Feb edition of Nature has a nice paper "Highly variable Northern Hemisphere temperatures reconstructed from low- and high-resolution proxy data" by Anders Moberg, DM. Sonechkin, K Holmgren, NM Datsenko, & W Karlin (doi:10.1038/nature03265). This paper takes a novel approach to the problem of reconstructing past temperatures from paleoclimate proxy data. A key result is a reconstruction showing more century-scale variability in mean Northern Hemisphere temperatures than is shown in previous reconstructions. This result will undoubtedly lead to much discussion and further debate over the validity of previous work. The result, though, does not fundamentally change one of the most discussed aspects of that previous work: temperatures since 1990 still appear to be the warmest in the last 2000 years.
The novel thing about this paper is the use of wavelets (a statistical tool common in image-processing software) to separate the low and high-frequency components of the data. The temperature reconstruction is then formed by combining the high-frequency (< 80 y) signal from tree rings with the low-frequency (> 80 y) signal from lake sediments and other such non-annually resolved proxies. This does two things that may be important: it allows the non-annually resolved proxies to be used (recent previous reconstructions, e.g. MBH98, Esper et al., used only those with at least a value each year, to allow calibration against the instrumental record; Moberg's approach allows the use of data that only provide 50 y means); and it throws away the long-term signal from the tree rings, which they consider to be untrustworthy. Other techniques have also been used or suggested for the merging of the low and high frequency signals (Guiot, 1985; Rutherford et al. (2005)).
The result is a more long-term variable signal than, e.g., Mann, Bradley and Hughes (1998; henceforth MBH98). Moberg et al. end up with two "warm peaks" in the smoothed record around 1000 and 1100 A.D., at 0 ºC on their anomaly scale. A few individual years within these intervals are almost +0.4 ºC warmer than the average. In comparison, the most recent data from the instrumental record post 1990 peak at +0.6 or a bit more, on the same scale. The coldest years of the so called "Little Ice age" occur around 1600 and are about -0.7 colder than average, with individual years down to -1.2 ºC.
These results are bound to stir up interest beyond the scientific community, since the "hockey stick" shape of previous reconstructions has become so totemic (although just about everyone agrees that there is no need for this "totemising"). We hope that press reports about this paper that mention the increased variability will also emphasize the other key result: that there is "no evidence for any earlier periods in the last millennium with warmer conditions than the post-1990 period – in agreement with previous similar studies (1-4,7)" where (1)is MBH98, (2) is MBH99, (7) is Mann and Jones '03. The "News" article in Nature explicitly rejects the idea that this means we're not causing the current warming. And it quotes statistician Hans von Storch (who has been quite critical of the earlier work): "it does not weaken in any way the hypothesis that recent observed warming is a result mainly of human activity".
There are a couple of technical concerns with the paper that are worth discussing, and which the compressed space of the Nature publication didn't leave the authors space to address fully.
First, its not too clear that the use of wavelets has added much to the mix. Moberg et al. use the wavelets to merge the high-frequency data from the tree rings with low-frequency data from the other sources, which have lower temporal resolution. But that means the low-res proxies are doing all the work, and the tree rings are just adding a fringe of noise that your eye reads as sort-of error bars.

Wayne Law student Aisa Villarosa named Skadden Fellow
DETROIT (Dec. 9, 2010) – Wayne State University Law School third-year student Aisa Villarosa has been named a 2011 Skadden Fellow. The Skadden Fellowship Foundation awards this highly coveted and competitive fellowship to just 25-30 persons nationwide each year. Villarosa, who was chosen from hundreds of applicants, is the first Wayne Law student to become a Skadden Fellow.
"The Skadden Fellowship is a very prestigious honor," said Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman. "Ms. Villarosa's leadership and involvement in dozens of well-executed, organized events and initiatives at the Law School has magnified the increasing interest in public interest and social justice law at Wayne Law. Those who know her or who have been touched by her energy and dedication to her community know the honor is well deserved. She is the kind of go-getter that sets the bar high, very high, inspiring her peers and improving her community every step of the way. I congratulate her on this outstanding achievement and look forward to following her career for years to come."
Villarosa is president of the Wayne Law Student Board of Governors and associate editor of The Wayne Law Review. Last year she served as president of the Law School's Asian Pacific Law Students Association (APALSA), SBG governor at large and secretary of the Hispanic Law Students Association (HLSA). She has twice been named a Wayne Law Public Interest Law Fellow in a fellowship program that enabled her to gain practical experience at the Michigan Poverty Law Center (2009) and the Michigan Children's Law Center (2010) while assisting those who would otherwise not be able to afford legal assistance.
Villarosa, a 2010 recipient of the John W. Reed Endowed Scholarship, also co-led efforts to create The 313 Project at Wayne Law. This initiative, begun in 2009 by board members from APALSA, HLSA and the Black Law Students Association, collaborates with organizations in and beyond the Law School to aid in public service, revitalization and charity efforts in the Detroit area. As part of the project, and in addition to its fundraisers and community clean-up initiatives, Villarosa and other students volunteer weekly as Detroit Reading Corps volunteers at Maybury Elementary in Southwest Detroit.
As a Skadden Fellow, Villarosa will receive a two-year grant to continue her work at the Michigan Children's Law Center, where she worked with a Public Interest Law Fellowship last summer.
"My project at the Michigan Children's Law Center has two main components: direct representation of minors in delinquency proceedings and a service-based outreach initiative linking Detroit service groups with local youths," Villarosa said. "The service component, and the organizations I will be working with, grew largely from the spirit and ideas behind The 313 Project. I'm proud to be a Detroiter, and I hope that my project will help the city and its youth."
For now, Villarosa is focused on exams and upcoming projects and looks forward to continuing her work in public interest law.
"I am thankful for this special opportunity, and extremely grateful to my faculty mentors here at the Law School," Villarosa said. "I am especially thankful to Professor Amy Neville and Professor Adele Morrison for guiding and supporting me through the entire application and interview process."
According to the Skadden Foundation website, "the 2010 class of fellows brings to 591 the number of academically outstanding law school graduates and judicial clerks the firm has funded to work full-time for legal and advocacy organizations." Approximately 90 percent of past fellows remain in public interest work after their fellowship.
"Besides the financial support it offers, a Skadden Fellowship is an extraordinary honor," said Wayne Law Assistant Professor Christopher Lund. "Past fellows include some very incredible people doing very important work. Ms. Villarosa is well deserving of this great honor."

Wayne Law welcomes Jeffrey Pryce for lecture on the START Treaty, Oct. 13
DETROIT (Oct. 1, 2010) — The Wayne State University Law School Program for International Legal Studies and the International Law Students Association are pleased to host a lecture by Jeffrey Pryce, an attorney with Steptoe and Johnson LLP in Washington, D.C., at 12:15-1:30 p.m. on Oct. 13, 2010, in the Law School's Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium. Pryce's lecture is titled "The new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty with Russia."
President Barack Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev signed the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) on April 8, 2010. The treaty, which, if passed by the U.S. Senate, would substantially reduce each side's nuclear arsenals, is the first arms control agreement between the two countries in nearly a decade.
As the Senate prepares to vote later this year, the treaty's passage has become highly controversial. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has praised the START treaty for "the dangerous weapons it reduces, the critical defense capabilities it preserves, the strategic stability it maintains and, above all, the security it provides to the American people." However, Senate Republicans argue that the treaty may require dangerous cuts in U.S. missile defense and that Russian compliance cannot be adequately verified. The Senate is expected to vote on the START treaty in November.
"The START treaty is a centerpiece of the Obama Administration's foreign policy," said Gregory Fox, Wayne Law professor and director of the Program for International Legal Studies. "A negotiator of similar treaties and a leading international lawyer, Jeff Pryce is the perfect person to explain both sides of this critical debate. Wayne Law is fortunate to have him visit our campus."
Pryce is an expert in arms control issues. During the Clinton Administration, he served as a senior official in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, where he was the lead negotiator or a member of the negotiating team for the successful conclusion of nuclear disarmament agreements with Russia, the Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan. His current law practice focuses on international litigation and arbitration. He also teaches international investment law at Georgetown University Law Center. He is a graduate of Yale Law School and clerked for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Byron White.
The event is free and open to the public, and lunch will be provided. RSVP at http://events.wayne.edu/rsvp/prycelecture/#rsvp.
Parking is available for $4.75 in WSU Structure #1 across from the Law School on West Palmer Street in Detroit. For directions to the Law School or to view a campus map, visit campusmap.wayne.edu/location/LAW.

Program for International Legal Studies
Wayne Law created the Program for International Legal Studies in recognition of the breadth of the faculty's international engagements and expertise and the fact that nearly all aspects of law now have an international component. From regulation of cross-border financial transactions to controlling pollution that recognizes no boundaries to human rights treaties that regulate how governments treat their citizens, law is now an interconnected global phenomenon.
The program coordinates all activities at Wayne Law related to international law. These activities include hosting the Speaker Series, sponsoring conferences and symposia featuring leading international scholars and practitioners, promoting research on international and comparative law topics, and providing important resources for Wayne Law students, alumni and friends interested in international law.
The program capitalizes on the Law School's world-renowned faculty members, who teach and write on a wide variety of international legal issues.

In his first season in the NHL, Conacher ranks second among rookies in the league with 24 points, scoring nine goals to go along with 15 assists. On Wednesday, the Calder Trophy candidate was traded to the Senators from the Tampa Bay Lightning.
"I had four years here that I will always remember," Conacher said. "The coaching staff at Canisius – Dave Smith, Mike Mankowski, who recruited me, and B.J. Adams, who is here now – those were guys that helped me develop while I was here. They gave me those minutes to work on defense and the little things to get me to the next level."

Looking great man! But I think your first barrel tip was closer to being correct (not so much of a taper going on). Here's a compilation from the guru, Brak's Buddy:
I'll dig for my drawings too.
EDIT...here was my initial take on what the tip would look like:
Like I mentioned in my email to you though, it's going to be tough to get the "definitive" barrel tip until we can find some better, more clear reference pics.
Again, you're doing a spectacular job!

I dont think you will have any problems with the fuel line it works great and has a nice flex to it. Hope this helps.
Sometimes the rocket on Jangos gauntlet all black, sometimes it is silver with black stripes (like Bobas). I assume one is a pre prod and the other isnt? Is this correct? I kinda like the way the all black ones look.
Hi gang, I need to know how I can make the left gaunt stay put. the problem is the flame thrower box is so heavy that when I wear it that it turns it's self downward, I'm always having to turn the thing back up right. Any help would be great. I cant make the thing any tighter with out cutting into my arm to keep it in place. Remeber Im a very large JangoBear.
Try some velcro on your gloves and on the inside on the gauntlet.
I put cut strips of foam padding in mine. I just slide them in at the top and the bottom after I put the gauntlet on and they seem to stay put. If you gauntlets clam-shell shut, you may want to just glue or velcro these pieces directly to the gauntlet.
is ther a big difference between the two and does anyone have some side by sides?
Ive put together a quick comparison, you can find it here:
Careful, its 110k...
As you can see by the pics, the level of detail is staggeringly diffrent. The Jango armor has alot of detail, wheras the Boba is simplified. Now IANABFE, (I am not a Boba-Fett Expert) but Im pretty sure this is just a product of the casting products of the 70's versus todays technology. The Jango Armor also has diffrences such as extra hoses, and a missing piece near the end of the wrist rocket launcher.
The pics are from Brak's Buddys amazing Online Ref. CD
and assorted celeb. II pics I had on my PC.
I was wondering if anyone has made the gauntlets out of sintra and if you have, was it a major pain in the *****?
Well, I've made Boba's gauntlets out of sintra. I had to make my mistakes and figure out how to do it, but they turned out well. At least they are not too small/too large for my body, and they have a good amount of detail.
Lisa, thanks for the reply. What did you use to glue all the "stuff" on to the gauntlet?
Superglue or 2-part epoxy, mostly. Go to www.azeem2000.com
Well I didn't make Jango gauntlets out of Sintra.. but I made my Boba Fett Gauntlets with Sintra.. you can see what you can do with Sintra at this thread
It has some shots of my gauntlets on my fett costume mannequin.. any questions.. let me know
I'm making some Jango gauntlets out of sintra right now... I'll try to post some pics soon... its definately difficult to take 2-D pics and turn them into a 3-D object that you've never made before. THe right one is done, now working on the left one... the rocket thing is my biggest hold-up...anyone got any ideas? BTW, Superglue seems to work better for me than the 2 part epoxy...GL
Well It seems that someone's Tip about using a clutch alignment tool was a great start for the rocket on the left guantlet...There are all different shapes and sizes depending on the vehicle... but all are a bit short or not quite the right shape. SO It must be a tractor clutch alignment tool or something, I'll look into it some more and leave another post. If anyone else has any info, I'd appreciate it. Like, what to use for the pointy thing on the end of the rocket =)
Can anyone post a list of all of the attachments (i.e. buttons, switches, hose attachments) they used on there gauntlets and where they got them? I'm using tube lighting from Target as the hoses, but I have no idea where to begin with all of this extra stuff. I've decided to go with sintra for the gauntlets. It looks like it's going to be TOUGH to make them, but the molded plastic gauntlets I bought are WEAK and not very detailed. So, I'm going to try my own hand at it.
I used black rubber fuel line from discount auto parts for the hoses. 2 small black "momentary pushbutton switches" from radio shack for the left gauntlet's flame thrower housing. Also a metal encased red led light from radio shack as well.
It's probably not movie accurate, but i'm using
generic male/female copper connectors from The Home Depot.
I have made small cover plates out of sintra that have holes
cut out to just the diameter or the copper connectors to poke
thru. Then I just screw the hose couplings right to that to
hold the hose to the sintra cover plate. You cannot see any
of the copper connector this way and all you see is the steel
coupling screw.
Hope this helps.
Guys, Im curious as to where to get ahold of that blue colored tubing on the gauntlets. Originally, I was going to just buy some sink tubing (the kind that you use for the sprayer) and try to color it. Im sure it's available some where already molded in that color. I saw some bright green colored hose at ace hardware this weekend. Any ideas?
One more thing...While searching for the mysterious "Clutch alignment tool" I wondered, "what kind of cars would be around Leavesden at the time Boba was being designed?" SO I began to look for clutch tools for british and european vehicles. After searching for volvo I found this:
It has 10 "teeth" (though, Im pretty sure the one in the photo has 22) and is made of plastic. (hmm, I realize now that most clutch tools are plastic) Besides, take a look at the length. I think it's pretty damn close, and it's plastic making it lightweight, cut-able, etc. Looks pretty good huh? Perhaps there are some older model clutch tools out there?
Wow, Jango would be proud :D What's the part number or name for those hinges? I haven't been able to find anything close. Are both of those pieces vacuufomred?
It's actually pretty common. Just look for brass continuos hinge. You have to cut it to length though.
How do you cut a hing to length? ^_^;
Kylash use a cutoff wheel on a dremel tool, or you can use a hacksaw. just cut at the last link nearest to the length you need. You can try and remove the center pin to make it easier, that's what I did.
Seeker, what are the parts you used there?
Yeah metal parts- what are the the hose connections as well as the dart. Thanks!
By they way, did you see that little picture of with you with Tam in last months Star Wars Insider? SWEET! I was there and saw ya. Little did I know that months later we would all be on this board together! Gotta love the innernet.
and does anyone have a nice, clear photo of how the left gauntlet hose that is NOT inside the box on the side is connected? is there a sort of tube that is attatched to the side of the gauntlet like in seekers? thanks!

"I removed the writing so my daughter could stick a photo of her much loved cat on her correspondence. They look beautiful."
"Customized this with bright pink and yellow for my daughter's first birthday party - they turned out so spectacular. ONLY criticism is that the weight of the stickers is a bit thin... but used them as seals for her invitations and they perfectly coordinated with the address labels (same Fantastic First group, which I also customized). Happy customer!"
"We loved this label. It match the party invitations we ordered and we used them to personalize our party favors. We wish they came in larger options and other shapes too!"
"I purchase these adhesive gift tags so I don't need a card to attach cards to a children's birthday gift. they rarely care about the card and it often becomes detached. I made a set of these with a picture of my boys and their names. Everyone loves them! It's also helpful for the parents to know who the gift is from in large classes. I know I'm more likely to recognize a photo than a name."
"This item was a fantastic addition to my nieces birthday. It received praises from everyone as it added a personal touch"

Dromey Heeter's Down to Earth
A birthday party at a landfill? It'll be fun and earth-friendly
By Susan Dromey Heeter
Down to Earth | November 11. 2013 9:15PM
Trailer-loads of trash are unloaded as huge compactors move in to compress it in this photo from 2000 at the Turnkey Landfill in Rochester. Perhaps lessons learned at Lilly's birthday party there will inspire her and her classmates to encourage habits that will reduce the amount of trash heading to landfills. 8Union Leader File
Lilly will turn 11 and we'll bring "Dirt," a concoction of gummy worms and Oreo cookies by which to celebrate her day with her classmates. We'll sing "Happy Birthday" before we go on the tour of the landfills and gain an appreciation of the massive operation that is, indeed, the management of waste. And as we celebrate Lilly and our wonderful outing, we'll learn and practice the myriad of ways to recycle.
Last year, at a craft fair, I had a "Make an Offer Table" and a friend was thrilled when she found my red Brooks Brothers wrap, offered 10 bucks. She wore it the rest of the day. Have I ever missed that wrap? Nope. When I bought it, I'd imagined wrapping myself in it as I took trans-Atlantic flights to Paris. Truth is, I've not been to Paris for a very long time and a red Brooks Brothers wrap is just a bit much for my trans-town trips to Market Basket.
Susan Dromey Heeter's "Down to Earth" column appears monthly in the Union Leader's At Home section. Her other monthly column, "Budget Vogue", appears in the Lifestyles section of the New Hampshire Sunday News.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Crazy post.
First of all was it a complete crate engine,long block,short block what? If the installer had to use your accessories,wire ,plumb,he would have cranked it just to check to see if install was right. Then you left it at Midas who hires every stupid idiot that can breathe to do their work.Then you and your (oldschool buddy drive the car with it running like crap. Big fact Oldschool hotrodder does the work himself not goldchain it out. What it sounds like to me is you and your buddy need to find another hobby. Common sence would have been to make the installer let you hear the motor run before you even thought about Midas. This installer just found him a fish and hes already set the hook.
You said this was a " crate engine ". This being the case the installer simply installed it. He shouldn't have had to do any timing of cam installation. This should have already been done by the crate engine builder.
Why didn't the installer start and check the engine? Even without exhaust in place he should have at least have started the engine, checked for leakage, timed it,etc.
Did Mr. Midas start the engine and drive the vehicle into the shop? How did it run then?
1000 miles? If you have a problem you can't put a miles number on it. The problem is NOW!
A lot of things don't really add up here.
My interpertation of a crate engine is a fully built ready to install unit. Normally add on fuel pump, dist., carb. flywheel etc. and fire her up.
Yup, I am confused.
At this point I'd have to say he's on his own.
|Promar woudn't warranty it cause my buddy kept driving the car. that is because the arrogant installer told him to not return till the 1000 miles.
Anyway, if the installer wasn't the builder, there's now THREE entities involved- each w/a portion of responsibility.
I would start w/whoever originally supplied the rebuilt engine. There's usually a warranty involved. Some are good, some are not worth the paper they're written on.
|Yes, the mechanic should have taken the car back. From the sounds of it he seems like a real arrogant *****. The engine was a long block chevy 350 from Promar if I heard correctly. It led me to specualte that maybe Promar was at fault. To those who say the engine wasn't primed or that it was towed. The car was towed due to not having anything but open headers which are ilegal on the street. I believe the engine was runned out of the installers shop before it was flat bedded so that would rule out a dry start. The funny thing is the guy who dropped the engine in called my buddy back about a week later and agreed to replace the busted valvetrain parts for 400 bucks. The Midas guy keeps urging my friend to sue the installer but I think 400 bucks is better than the headache of court.
Did the mechanic who installed the engine also build it? If not, who was the manufacturer?
As soon as your buddy discovered the engine didnt run right, it should have gone back to the installer, by hook or flatbed. The installer should have told you to bring it in right a way, he is partially responsible for giving bad mechanical advice.
As for who's at fault, this is going to be a finger pointing, pixxing contest. Your friend might just as well bite the bullet and whip out the visa card for whatever the cost of the fix is. Then stay away from Midas or the guy that built the motor and recommend that to your friends. However, never say anything that can't be backed up with facts, so don't accuse Midas or the builder of any wrong doing, just say for example; "we took it to Midas in good shape. It was damaged at return, they disavow any responsibility". If you get hot under the collar and accuse them or anyone else of having done it, and especially if you put that on the WWW, you're opening yourself to defamation law suit. So in the words of Sergent Joe Friday, just the facts sir, just the facts!
I think in my years of building, I've probably spent as many hours in lawyers offices as dyno rooms. Blown up performance engines always leaves bad feelings all around. We check list everything and time stamp the entries with a time clock. It helps settle the dust when the finger pointing starts, it's also been a lesson in process improvement for us.
|When I drop my car off for any work, I always write down the milage. If it's 2-3 miles off at pickup...
|The thing that jumps out at me is you all TOWED the vehicle to Midas. For whatever reason, if I tow something because I don't want the engine running, I'd never let a Midas guy start the engine unless I was there....then I'd do the starting. That should have been made clear to them, IMO. If it was, even tacitly, then the Midas folks are holding the bag for starting a new or untested engine without permission. You didn't say whether it was new or not but if it was, who knows if it was even primed before the muffler wizard fired it up to "hear the pipes" he installed.
I have seen this before.
When you leave your car anywhere it is always a good idea to stay close by.
I have friends who have left their car for work who came back to pick it up and for some reason the rear end now has a terrible hum to it.
Turns out the guys in the shop made a few pass up and down the road just to check out their new work they had done.
I saw one guy who went to look at his New back halfed chopped 39 coupe and he pegged the guy at the shop to let him just take it for a little ride down this country road.
This tried to talk him out of it but they could not so they told him to make sure he took it easy with those new big back tires going around any corners.
We watched him take off and then roll the car three times when he got to the corner.
He was sitting there crying when we pulled up!!!!!!!!!!!
True story. Jimbo
no they are 1.5 ratio rockers which I believe are stock the only thing after market are the aluminum heads maybe the cam and intake. I didn't get to look at the engine. Yes it is a situation that pisses me off to hear about. As a favor I would like to help solve this situation. It is especially hard since all they would do is point the finger at each other. I do not believe the gas was bad either. Yes If i remember correctly almost if not all the rods and rockers/valves were damaged. the problem is I didn't look at the engine and my buddy says the guy only showed him the bent S shaped push rods which sound a bit fishy to me.
I was with my friend on his last visit to midas before returning to the crate engine guy where the midas guy as a "favor" ran tests and said he had a cylinder plug that wasn't firing and i agreed myself that there was some bad noise as well as excessive engine vibration at idle. the car was lacking complete power. My buddy called the installer guy but the guy seemed quite arrogant and confident in his ability telling my friend to not return untill his 1000 mile warranty oil change was due. In my own inspection I notice the engine installer also installed the engine with a header hitting the frame busting a hole in it. the idiot from Midas also can't even weld exhaust right I helped my buddy with my stick welder to patch things.
I don't know where to point the finger myself since it seems they both are fishy. the only lead I have to go on is the story that the day the car was dropped at midas the first thing the midas guy says to my friend is who dropped this engine in I don't like the way it runs or sounds.
I have conflicts to the thought that the midas guy could have raced it in the middle of a monday afternoon in a span of a few hours wrecking a crate engine on car with no pipes and license plates and then trying to pass the blame so he can try to get bussiness. I might be wrong however hence me trying to get other opinions.
thanks again everyone people like this give all mechanics a bad name
Man that is a tough deal..one of those finger pointing deals and your buddy is the one who is out..If this is a crate engine then no way did it not have the right parts in it unless you buddy had something changed so it is probably the Midas guy who did the deed..

Has anyone here taken a OSP's shooting clinic? If so, I'd appreciate any feedback on the clinic's teaching method, atmoshpere, and of course, any positive results from it. Did you take a 1, 2, 3 day clinic? What would you recommend for an experienced (10yrs of hunting) hunter, and occasional trap/sporting clay shooter.
Or has anyone purchased any of thier products? DVDs, books, CDs?
Thanks for your responses!!

|Can't we give lance a break, I tried riding a bike on drugs once and ended up in a bush.
I was a national competitive bodybuilder for years and the amounts and levels of roids taken in that sport would blow your minds. ..but it was expected to be there. Now, it's in almost every physical sport..and it's a shame.

The second place rider in most of those years was Jan Ulrich...he's been popped for drugs too. Which is why its comical that anyone ever thought lance was clean....the top ten has ALL been busted for EPO and there's no way he could beat them if he was clean. It's been proven its not humanly possible on various sports science websites and papers have been published for years on this very topic. That it was impossible for lance to be clean if his competitors we not. (if you want links I'll dig them up)
considering lance was paying off the UCI for years they might just leave his name in the record books. Their statue of limitations is different then USADA. Im not sure on jurisdiction but I don't think the UCI is obligated to do what USADA tells them. Ive not been following closely so maybe they do.
In that case they'll just award no one the title and leave it blank for the year. That has happened before, although not with winners. I know there are years where there is no rider listed for second place when they were later found to be doping. (Rasmussen) It will be a long dark time in the history books. Bijarne Riis admitted to doping for his TdF win in 94. His title still stands in the record books since he came out after his statute of limitations ended.
I used to be a competitive cyclist on the road and on the velodrome. And it's not any better now then it was then. I raced against juniors 15-18 who were doping and I knew of many masters (45+) racers who doped. And they weren't even racing for $ just ego boost.
I've worked doping control at UCI level events....it's a fun job!

I hope he looses everything. If he just got caught and came clean he'd be like every other athlete that got caught without all the denial this would barely be news.
|Lance would make a good Politician
|So over this story. We all knew he cheated. He was a dick head in life. This is not news and I wish I could watch ESPN for more than 2 minutes without them bringing this shit up.

Now I wonder, since as he claims all the top riders were doing it, what will happen to those tour titles? Are they going to the 2nd place rider? If so are they going to test that person? then what, keep going down the ranks till they get to someone who was clean? After all that would be the only fair thing to do, and would be a huge lesson to athletes every where.

"Everyone else was doing it" is not an excuse and certainly does not mean that he, and other dopers, didn't cheat others.

"I have been robbed by drug cheats, but I am fortunate, I am here before you with more in my basket than the 12 year old dreamed of. But for many genuine people out there who do ride clean; people with morals, many of these people have had to leave the sport with nothing after a lifetime of hard work — some going through horrific financial turmoil. When Lance "cries" on Oprah later this week and she passes him a tissue, spare a thought for all of those genuine people who walked away with no reward – just shattered dreams. Each one of them is worth a thousand Lances."
Now I wonder, since as he claims all the top riders were doing it, what will happen to those tour titles? Are they going to the 2nd place rider? If so are they going to test that person? then what, keep going down the ranks till they get to someone who was clean? After all that would be the only fair thing to do, and would be a huge lesson to athletes every where. That's really the only way things will change, as it stands it's still okay to cheat, just not okay to get caught.

Blue Ribbon Bacon Tour at Keystone Resort June 23-24
June 21, 2012
Aside from apple pie there is perhaps nothing more American than bacon. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing remains to be determined, but one thing most can agree on is that bacon is delicious. This month, Blue Ribbon's annual Bacon Tour is stopping at Keystone Resort for the second year in a row, bringing with it some 3,000 pounds of cured meat, along with live music, beer and even bacon bloody mary's.The featured event of the Bacon Tour, and the one you will not want to miss, will be the cooking competition where bacon vendors will team up with Keystone's finest chefs in creating bacon-inspired dishes. Adding a nice little twist, there will be both savory and sweet categories in which they will compete, meaning that participants will not only be able to have bacon for the main course, but also for dessert. There will also be bacon lectures and cooking demonstrations at Warren Station throughout the weekend, where participants can explore the versatility of bacon and learn how to use in a variety of techniques to make some truly delicious hog dishes at home.To accompany the pig-inspired festivities, what could be better than some good old-fashioned rock n' roll? Attendees of the Bacon Tour will be treated to free performances by Universally Famous Rocket Surgeons, Fort Collins' own Better Than Bacon, Moreland and Arbuckle and Hell's Belles, an AC/DC cover band. If you have kids in tow, Keystone will also be hosting free kids craft activities to keep the tots happy during the tour.The party starts Saturday from 1 – 6 p.m., and continues through Sunday, 1 – 6 p.m. One day of pigging out will cost you $30, and if one day is not enough, weekend packages begin at $50. Lodging and weekend packages are also available starting at $80. One- day ticket purchases get you a koozie, a hat, five bacon bucks to use at vendor tents, and unlimited tasting at purveyor tents. A weekend pass will get you a koozie, hat, eight bacon bucks for vendors and unlimited tasting from purveyors. The lodging package includes a night of lodging at Keystone and a day pass, or, for $149, two nights of lodging at Keystone and a weekend pass. Finally, for $60, those who want to go truly hog wild can enjoy the Bacon Elegance Dinner at the Wolf Rock Steakhouse tonight, a bacon themed feast, including three bacon themed food tents and a free drink.

I'm relatively new to the goose game, but have quickly become addicted to it. Still love the ducks more, but goose hunting (Canada geese) is something I want to get better at.
I want to learn to call. I have a POS call, and I can make some sounds but I know its nothing the geese want to hear. If you could recommend 1 call and 1 instructional (preferably DVD) what would it be?
I don't want to drop more than $50 on my first decent goose call. Is that reasonable? Are there any good youtubes that anyone knows of? I have a CD for duck calling, but I'm much more of a visual learner and would rather a DVD or movie of some sort.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Today's announcements at the Open Compute Project (OCP) 2013 Summit could be considered as tangible markers for the OCP crossing the line into real relevance as an important influence on emerging hyper-scale and cloud computing as well as having a potential bleed-through into the world of enterprise data centers and computing. This is obviously a subjective viewpoint – there is no objective standard for relevance, only post-facto recognition that something was important or not. But in this case I'm going to stick my neck out and predict that OCP will have some influence and will be a sticky presence in the industry for many years.
Even if their specs (which look generally quite good) do not get picked up verbatim, they will act as an influence on major vendors who will, much like the auto industry in the 1970s, get the message that there is a market for economical "low-frills" alternatives.
Major OCP Initiatives
To date, OCP has announced a number of useful hardware specifications, including:

what are the colors of the wires on the esb gauntlets? they look like they go yellow red yellow/grey. what do you guy's think?
what are the colors of the wires on the esb gauntlets? they look like they go yellow red yellow/grey. what do you guy's think?
White on top,red in middle and black on bottom.
I don't know but from the looks of this picture I am not seeing a black wire but it could just be me.
looking at the color simmalarity between the sholder bells and the top wire they look the same color dont they?
by the way im doing this as we speek so any info you guy's can give me would help greatly.
I would say from top to bottom... Yellow, Red, Grey
thats what it looks like to me so ima go with what you say.
I see white, red, and grey/black, depending on lighting. I'd would say it's black since those are the colours that come in those big wires with three wires inside...don't know what they're called exactly. Anyone else know what I'm referring to?
Id say its black
ok thats a good pic. white it is
a thought just crosed my mind. how thick are these wires?
I used 12ga. solid core for the top white wire.
I used a black cord from an old VCR and wrapped it with red electrical tape for the middle "red" wire.
I used the same black cord for the bottom black wire.
The bottom two red/black looked fatter than the top most white wire to me so I used what I thought the prop makers might have had on hand
can you post a quick pick so i can see what it looks like?
Note the location of the first white wires entry point....it's supposed to be about midway from the top corner. Most I have seen make it too high.
nice gaunt's. thanks for the pic

The blog posts are coming thick and fast from Rootstech 2013 ! Thank you to Pat Richley Ericksen aka DearMyrtle for the following breaking news ….
Pat is at the Official Genealogy Bloggers dinner in Salt Lake City hosted by FamilySearch. They are getting the bloggers up to speed with the latest news and it seems that FamilySearch is to have a re-vamp and a new logo. From what I can see it has a lot to do with the new FamilySearch Family Tree.
I better not steal Pat's photos, but I can tell you that the logo looks modern and fresh. The new website will launch mid April, so a few weeks for us all to get used to another change in the genealogy world!

That doesn't make it any easier, though.
The tears still flow, even though my mind is filled with great memories of his life.
He dipped my passie in his coffee when I was 1, and I've been addicted ever since.
He was a huge Civil War collector and did question me about the "damn yankee" I brought to meet him. After a beer with the hubs, he gave his stamp of approval.
He has a Purple Heart for his amazing bravery in fighting for our country.
He was a wonderful father, grandfather, and great-grandfather.

You better believe I will be fashionably dressed for his funeral. Every time I saw him, he would tell me how "in" my outfit was, and all about the trends he read about lately.
