- About Plattsburgh
The SAT or ACT is required for freshman applicants. You can take the tests as many times as you want because we will consider only your best scores. We recommend a combined SAT score of 1080 or higher on the new SAT (or 1000 or higher on the old SAT)*, or a 21 or higher on the ACT. Although the SATs and ACTs are important indicators of your academic ability they are not the only indicators. We look at your high school program and your unweighted, recalculated average as well. *Note - scores will not be super scored across the new SAT and old SAT exams.
Simply call Admissions at (518) 564-2040 or (888) 673-0012 to arrange an interview and tour. If you missed it, you can also take our virtual tour.
Successful applicants typically possess a solid "B" or better high school average in a college-preparatory program. We also require that students have 5 combined math and/or science units. We recommend a combined SAT score of at least 1080 or higher on the new SAT (or 1000 or higher on the old SAT)*, or an ACT composite of 21 or higher. Some majors may require the completion of specific courses (i.e. Nursing requires the successful completion of Chemistry). *Note - scores will not be super scored across the new SAT and old SAT exams.
Each application is reviewed individually. If there has been an event that has impacted your educational success, we want to know about it. Contact the Admissions Office to discuss your situation as early as possible.
For best consideration, you should apply to SUNY Plattsburgh by December of your senior year. Admission is on a rolling basis, which means that students are accepted continuously from mid-December until admissions closes in the summer. However, the earlier you apply, the earlier you'll get your decision. Applying early also means we have more time to get important information from you, increasing your options for special consideration or a specific program.
Freshman applicants have two options to apply for admission - the Common Application and the SUNY Application. Click here for more information about applying to SUNY Plattsburgh.
Freshman admissions decisions generally start rolling in December. If we receive your completed application by mid-December, you should hear from us by mid-January. If we need additional information, such as your mid-term grades, we will send you a request.
Interviews are not required but are strongly encouraged. A campus visit gives you the opportunity to explore the campus and ask questions. If you choose a personal interview, we will be able to discuss your individual admissions issues. To schedule an appointment, register online, or call (888) 673-0012. We offer tours and personal interviews Monday-Friday. We also offer Saturday Group Information Sessions and Fall and Spring campus-wide Open Houses. For more information go to www.plattsburgh.edu/admissions/visit.php .
Yes, freshmen may bring cars to campus their first semester. Transportation is also available to students without cars. The Student Association runs a shuttle bus from the college to various spots throughout Plattsburgh - malls, grocery stores and banks. The college sponsors chartered buses to Montreal and weekend ski trips in the winter so those students without cars do not miss out on the action! The Student Association also sponsors vacation buses to NYC during semester breaks.
That's up to you! We CAN tell you that you will be able to get all the courses you need to graduate in the normal four-year period.
Going away to college for the first time can be a scary thing, indeed. But the more you get involved, the less homesick you'll be! And getting involved is easy to do at SUNY Plattsburgh. You'll also be glad to know that all dorm rooms come equipped with a telephone jack, so Mom and Dad are only a phone call away. If you're still feeling homesick, you can speak with your R.A. and the other students on your floor. More than likely, they've experienced the same feelings and can offer you advice. And that first break-over Columbus Day-is right around the corner!
Plattsburgh is generally seen as a welcoming, non-intimidating place. The small-city environment is friendly but active, and the campus is situated in the middle of it all. A significant number of SUNY Plattsburgh students are from northern New York-raised in small towns just like yours!
Although Plattsburgh has no subway, mass transit system or skyline dotted with skyscrapers, we do have more than enough "action" to keep city dwellers occupied. In fact, our second-largest student population consistently comes from metro NYC-that is, from Long Island and the counties surrounding New York City. But if you have an irresistible urge to ride a subway or go clubbing in the big city, you can just hop on the bus to nearby Montreal.
Yes. SUNY Plattsburgh routinely accepts credits that students have earned while in high school. We transfer credits completed through Advanced Placement (AP), the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and courses taught in a high school that are certified by an accredited college. Credit is awarded once an official score report or transcript is received and a sufficient passing grade is met, as deemed by the Admissions Office. Read more about receiving college credit.
The Admissions Office is located on the 10th floor of the Kehoe Building.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Not sure how many a video is worth, but watch (and listen to) this demo, it is quite impressive!!
As you can see, all guitar tracks came from Guitarix. They are mono tracks, which are then routed into the JACK audio server, which in turn can patch them through to Ardour track inputs. All the recording was done in Ardour, apparently.
I am yet to try Guitarix myself, but wanted to share it over here because I think it is a great tool for all of us doing Audio production in Linux. Should you want to install it, please follow the instructions from the official site. In the case of Ubuntu/Ubuntu Studio, instructions are simple:
1.- Add the Guitarix repository:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:falk-t-j/lucid
2.- Update your sources:
sudo apt-get update
3.- Install Guitarix
sudo apt-get install guitarix
If you do install it or have done so already, please share your experience by posting a comment here!
Thanks for reading

Thursday, August 30, 2012
There are always some dates that stand out in our football world and being a Gooner one that has very much been in that selective group for a number of years is the Champions League group stage draw.
As a travelling fan Thursday dictates which parts of the continent we will be visiting over the next three months or so.
With the dreaded transfer window also due to close on Friday it almost feels there is more going on off the pitch than on it this week! For me that should never be the case but the format seems to dictate this and it fuels the media frenzy!
A sunny day in Stoke with a good playing surface was welcome last Sunday. It helped lift the mood on a day where the Bank Holiday weekend fatigue had me arriving at the Britannia feeling a little tired and subdued.
Defensively I don't remember as ever being as comfortable in this particular fixture with even long throws and set pieces being dealt with easily. Just like our opening game however, we lacked a little composure and luck in the final third to score the goal and clinch the result our performance probably deserved.
A point at Stoke is definitely not a disastrous result and with a relatively new-look side I believe we have already seen plenty to fuel our optimism. Football unfortunately does not give you much time, however, so hopefully we will see winning results sooner rather than later. I for one am confident this will be the case.
An away trip to Anfield isn't exactly the easiest fixture to try and pick up our first victory but having done it before on numerous occasions there is no reason why we can't do it again on Sunday.
An even earlier start for the journey beckons but before that we will find out three things for the coming weeks and months. On Friday night we will finally know if our squad remains as it is now or if there have been any last-minute comings and going. Before that we find out who we'll face in the third round of this season's League Cup. As always a nice 'unusual' trip to somewhere like Burton Albion would do me! Of the remaining teams there are five grounds where I haven't seen us play so I have a glimmer of hope!
Before all that of course our attention will be firmly on the Champions League draw. Once again I am looking for something new, a situation that has become ever more unlikely as the years have gone by. Only one team from pot two falls into that category so Zenit St Petersburg would be my choice. Anderlecht or Lille would work from pot three and with five possibilities from pot four I must have some chance of being successful in that one!
Somewhere warm in September would be nice!
Come on you mighty reds.

A strong defensive effort powered the Canisius College women's lacrosse team to a 13-3 win over Siena on Wednesday night at the Demske Sports Complex. The Griffs matched a school record by winning their eighth-straight game to improve to 10-3 on the season and a perfect 4-0 in MAAC play. Canisius also clinched a bid to the MAAC Tournament with the win as the team looks to become the first squad in conference history to win three-straight league titles.
"We talked with the team prior to the game that the contest would be won tonight on defense and I thought we executed our game plan perfectly on that side," said Canisius head coach Scott Teeter. "At times, we were a little sloppy on the offensive side but our defense more than made up for it tonight. We're playing really good lacrosse right now and just need to continue it starting with a key matchup at Fairfield on Saturday."
The Griffs matched the program's record for fewest goals allowed in a MAAC contest. Canisius also held the Saints to just 12 shots (the lowest total by a Canisius opponent this season), while forcing Siena into 20 turnovers.
Senior Lindsey Morgan and sophomore Tori Quinn each led the Griffs with five points in the winning effort. Morgan recorded two goals and three assists, while Quinn posted four goals and one helper. Senior midfielder Morgan Leonard also chipped in a game-high four goals with junior Maria Kotas recording two goals and one assist and senior Meghan McGunigle adding a goal and one helper.
Sophomore netminder Kayla Scully anchored the strong defensive performance by recording six saves in the win. Kotas also added a game-high five ground balls and four caused turnovers to lead the Canisius back line.
Siena (2-10, 1-2 MAAC) scored the game's first goal 1:43 into the contest but it was all Canisius after that. Quinn tied the game at one just 14 seconds later and Leonard scored the next three goals for a 4-1 lead. Canisius added three more tallies before the Saints finally found the back of the net again with just five seconds remaining in the opening half as the teams headed into the intermission with the Griffs leading, 7-2.
Canisius outshot the Saints, 12-4, in the opening 30 minutes of action, while forcing the Saints into nine turnovers.
The Griffs continued to control the game in the second stanza. Canisius scored the first three goals of the period before the Saints got on the board with just 7:53 remaining in the game. The goal to pull within seven at 10-3 ended the second drought of more than 20 minutes in the game for Siena. Canisius then sealed its eighth-straight win with three goals in the final four minutes for the 13-3 final tally.
Overall, Canisius finished with a 22-12 advantage in shots with both teams winning nine draw controls.
Katie Maguire led the Saints with two goals with Ashley Holdridge recording six saves in net.
The Griffs continue MAAC play with a road contest against Fairfield on Saturday. A rematch of the last two MAAC Championships (both won by Canisius), the schools are set to meet at 11 a.m.
Game Notes: The Griffs also won eight-straight games from March 21 to April 21, 2008 … The previous low for shots allowed this season was 14 against Niagara … The last time Canisius allowed fewer than 12 shots in a game was against St. Bonaventure on March 17, 2009 (11 shots), with the most recent time in a MAAC game coming on April 16, 2008 against Niagara (seven shots) … The Griffs are outscoring teams, 123-43, during the eight-game winning streak (average of 15.4 to 5.4) … Canisius has won its four MAAC games by an average score of 14.8 to 4.0 … Leonard has scored a career-best four goals in six-straight games and in 9-of-13 contests this season … Quinn has recorded at least five points in 9-of-13 contests.

The University of St. Thomas is committed to investing in returning service members' education by participating in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Through this program, UST will collaborate with the Veterans Administration to enable eligible veterans to attend UST with no tuition cost.
The Yellow Ribbon Program is part of the Chapter 33 education benefit for veterans who have served in the military since Sept. 11, 2001. GI Bill 2.0 legislation passed in December of 2010 caps private university tuition benefit coverage at $17,500 per academic year, but the Yellow Ribbon Program permits the University and the VA to provide matching funds to cover the remaining portion of tuition and fees not covered under the Post-9/11 GI Bill and other eligible student aid.
Veterans are also eligible for institutional scholarships and grants as well as federal and state grant programs. Students are encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid to determine financial aid eligibility.
"At the University of St. Thomas, we feel honored to educate those who have served our country. Veterans praise our supportive environment and dedicated faculty who have had a transformative impact our their careers." said St Thomas President Dr. Robert Ivany, Major General, Retired, U.S. Army. Dr. Ivany served in the Army for 34 years before retiring in 2003.
Philip Butcher, UST director of Veteran Services, is a veteran who spent 4 ½ years as an aircrew member in the U.S. Air Force flying combat missions in Afghanistan and Iraq. Butcher is available to provide individual attention to guide veterans through the university and education benefits application process. Since UST created an Office of Veteran Services in 2009, the student-veteran community at UST has grown from less than 20 veterans to nearly 100.
"I remember all of the confusion I had when I separated from the military and began attending school− the head in the clouds feeling of not always knowing what to do next or where to go," Butcher said. "I want to make sure that other veterans have more information so that they can take full advantage of their benefits."

A roadmap to end aging

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The holiday hiring boost continues, this time at Meijer.
The retailer is preparing to hire thousands of new employees for its stores as it prepares for this year's holiday season and continued growth throughout the Midwest.
"Customer service is one of the things that truly sets Meijer apart from our competition," said Janet Emerson, EVP operations. "Our goal is to deliver the best customer experience and the lowest prices, and as we continue to grow it's so important that we have the right levels of staff and the right people in those roles."
According to Meijer, while staffing needs vary from store to store, all Meijer stores have positions available.

On the eastern side of the American Legion Mall, just south of the American Legion National Headquarters, is the World War II Memorial designed by Indianapolis architect Patrick Brunner. The design of the memorial is similar to both the Korean and Vietnam Memorials. However the World War II Memorial is larger and is the first to truly be a half-circle with a radius of 9 feet 2 inches. The convex side faces Pennsylvania Street. This side contains a brief history of the war and pays special attention to Hoosier Medal of Honor recipients and distinguished Hoosier units. The concave side features excerpts from Hoosier World War II veterans' letters home and a free-standing column that lists the order of the campaigns and operations of the war. Located directly next to the memorial is a computer which contains a database with the names of those Hoosier's who were killed in action. Veterans and family members are being relied on to provide the names of those veterans who survived the war since there are no official records.

One certainty about Martin Biron is that he can be asked one question, and he'll provide 37 answers. He was asked about his baseball cap Wednesday after the Sabres' morning skate, and he somehow rolled it into a story about his father working the tobacco fields back in Quebec. By the time he was finished, I wondered how he started.

Q. San Francisco's post-1906 court records, including divorces, were indexed, but many of the original documents were destroyed. Is there a way to get the information they contained?
A. Destroyed records - whether ruined by fire, flood, earthquake or carelessness - are the bane of genealogists' existence. Those researching in pre-earthquake San Francisco should see the California Genealogical Society's <www.calgensoc.org> splendid publication Raking the Ashes by Nancy S. Peterson. Peterson addresses pre-earthquake divorce records and lists newspapers that published names of the parties and grounds for divorce. She also describes how to locate other records that survived.

UGA Adds Patrick Cunniff As Bulldog Distance Coach
UGA Adds Patrick Cunniff As Bulldog Distance Coach
The Bulldogs posted three team national finishes in the top six during the indoor and outdoor campaigns, including a tie for third with a school record 40.5 points for the Georgia women at the '14 NCAA Indoor Championships which was the second-best finish in school history. UGA's teams completed the year by registering their best combined finish in school history at the NCAA outdoor meet with the Lady Bulldogs taking fifth and the Georgia men managing sixth.
Individually, his team combined to tally a school record five NCAA champions in 2014 with Leontia Kallenou sweeping the high jump titles, true freshman Kendell Williams winning both the pentathlon and heptathlon crowns and Maicel Uibo overtaking the 2013 NCAA champion in the decathlon's 10th and final event to capture his first national title in the multi-events. Williams returned to win the 100 meter hurdles titles at the USATF Junior Championships and World Junior Championships over the summer.
When the dust settled after outdoor Nationals in Eugene, Ore., Norton's teams recorded an impressive list of individual accolades over the indoor and outdoor campaigns: a World Junior Record in the pentathlon, American Junior records in the pentathlon, heptathlon and 100m hurdles, collegiate records in the pentathlon and the heptathlon 100m hurdles, a Cypress national record in the outdoor high jump, NCAA Championship records in the pentathlon and heptathlon 100 hurdles, an SEC Championship record in the indoor high jump and four school records (men's heptathlon indoors, pentathlon indoors, indoor women's high jump, 100m hurdles).
Georgia's immense success in the classroom has also coincided with Norton's time as head coach. The Bulldog men were named the USTFCCCA National Scholar Team of the Year for the 2014 outdoor season. Lucie Ondraschkova improved upon her 2013 Academic All-America Third Team honor to earn Second Team honors in 2014 while Brandon Lord complemented his 2014 SEC 10,000m title with Academic All-America Third Team honors. In addition, Norton's teams each garnered 2014 All-Academic Team honors and 12 Bulldogs earned All-Academic Individual honors.
During Norton's 15 years as head coach, Georgia has won 25 individual national titles, including seven in the last two years (2013 - Shaunae Miller, indoor 400m; Freya Jones, javelin), earned 192 All-America certificates and captured 108 SEC individual titles. The men and women's teams have also achieved a total of 29 top-25 NCAA finishes during this span.
Over the last nine years, Norton and his coaching staff further established Georgia's program as one of the nation's elite programs. The Lady Bulldogs claimed both the SEC indoor and outdoor titles in 2006, finished with nine NCAA individual crowns and seven top-10 team finishes at the NCAA Championships during those years. Georgia also combined to rack up 58 SEC individual crowns during the last nine seasons.
UGA claimed its first NCAA men's javelin title in 2008 before Chris Hill, who went on to win the 2009 USA Championships, was able to accomplish the feat yet again in 2009. This was the first national championship for the Bulldog men since 2003. The UGA men returned to the top of the podium in 2014 as Maicel Uibo won the decathlon crown.
Another first for the Bulldog men came as the late great Torrin Lawrence sprinted to Georgia's first national championship in the 400m at the 2010 NCAA Indoor Championships. Lawrence completed his career as a seven-time All-American and three-time SEC champion and with three of the top-10 collegiate indoor 400m times all-times, including a 45.03.
In the field, Nikola Lomnicka captured the third NCAA women's hammer throw crown for the Lady Bulldogs in five years in 2010 before finishing third at the 2011 NCAA Championships. Lomnicka concluded her career in 2012 with her third consecutive First Team All-America certificate in the hammer and three SEC championships.
Norton came to Georgia in 1990 and has been instrumental in guiding the UGA men to five outdoor top-10 NCAA finishes, 13 outdoor top-20 finishes, two indoor top-10 finishes and six indoor top-20 finishes. He has also been a key factor in the development of a nationally competitive women's team. In the 1995 season, Georgia won its first ever SEC Outdoor Championship in the history of the women's program. In 1996, the Lady Bulldogs claimed their highest NCAA finish in school history as they finished second at NCAA Indoors. Over the course of the last 15 seasons, the women's team has captured eight outdoor top-20 finishes and seven indoor top-15 finishes. The Georgia women scored more than 100 points (108) at the 2012 SEC Outdoor Championships and posted their eighth top-25 finish at the NCAA outdoor meet during Norton's tenure.
In his time at Georgia, the cross country team has also thrived. Prior to the 1990s, the women's team had never gone to the NCAA Championships, but that changed in 1990 when they made their first ever trip to the NCAAs. Georgia would get back to nationals in 1991, 1997, 2004-07 and 2011-2012. The 2013 campaign saw the Bulldog men make their school record third straight trip to Nationals and edge Florida by one point for the NCAA South Regional title. Both Georgia distance teams qualified for the national meet in 2012, with the UGA men grabbing their top NCAA finish in history (19th).
In 2011, the Georgia men advanced to the NCAA cross meet for the first time since 2004 and had the top SEC team finish. The Bulldogs won the South Regional in 2003 to advance to their first NCAA meet. They then returned to the national meet in 2004, which marked the first time in school history that both the men's and women's cross country teams competed simultaneously at the NCAA meet.
In 2006, the Lady Bulldog cross country team grabbed their first South Regional title and took 15th at the NCAA Championships. The Georgia women, who saw Natalie Picchetti earn All-American honors, returned to the NCAA meet for the fourth consecutive time in 2007 after Sarah Madebach won the school's first SEC individual title. Kristie Krueger added another All-America certificate for the Lady Bulldog XC crew in 2010 after winning her own SEC crown.
Norton, who began coaching in 1981 as a graduate assistant at Indiana, has had success at all three of the schools where he has coached. While at Indiana from 1981-85, the Hoosiers won three Big Ten Indoor Championships and an outdoor Big Ten Championship.
Before coming to Athens, Norton served as an assistant coach at Northern Arizona University from 1985-89. He coached NAU's jumpers and sprinters (a group which featured NFL speedsters Mike Haynes, David Lang and Shawn Collins), while serving as an instructor in both physical education and journalism. During his tenure at Northern Arizona, the program had a very successful five-year period. Out of the Big Sky Conference, Northern Arizona won four men's conference championships, three women's indoor conference championships, two outdoor women's championships, seven cross country championships.
While at Georgia, he has produced a steady stream of All-American jumpers, including 2008 and 2012 Olympian Levern Spencer and 2008 Olympian Patricia Sylvester. Norton was instrumental in 2006 with the pair listed above racking up four All-American certificates and four SEC individual titles. The Lady Bulldogs won a pair of SEC jump titles in 2013 and collected five All-America certificates. In 1995, Georgia's jumpers enjoyed one of their best seasons ever, registering another five All-America awards while winning three SEC crowns, thanks to the efforts of Thad Hood, Icolyn Kelly, Reeta Laaksonen and Dillon Phelps. Laaksonen and Phelps added more such honors in 1996 and Sylvester came away with her first conference title in 2005. Norton has also guided other nationally-renowned jumpers including Celly Martinez, Latifah Long, Krysha Bayley, Volker Mai, Hyleas Fountain, Ryan Sheppard, Patrick Thavelin, Wolfgang Kreissig, Marcus Bailey, Tasha Mahone and Antonio Saunders.
At the 2012 Olympics in London, former Bulldog thrower Reese Hoffa gave Georgia's track and field program its 12th medal after earning a bronze in the shot put. During the 2008 Games in Beijing, Hyleas Fountain claimed a silver medal in the heptathlon after competing for Norton and the Lady Bulldogs in 2003-04. Norton received his Bachelor's degree in broadcast production from Howard University in 1981. During his time as a graduate assistant coach at Indiana from 1981-85, he worked on his Master's in journalism and earned the degree in 1987.
Norton and his wife Priscilla have four children: son Christian and daughters LaShawna, Jasmine and Erica. Norton also has a son-in-law after Andre Wilson married his daughter LaShawna. The couple has a son named Isaiah.

I know it's a Beretta even though Stoeger produces them in Turkey. Do any of you guys have any experience with this gun and and what are the pros. and cons?

Your hand should be a source of good things, pets, treats, toys, etc. It should never be punishment.
I agree with the others, redirect. Make sure your dog is always supervised and then redirect when you see the unwanted behavior. Replace it with appropriate dog toys/bones/etc. You'll reap the rewards in the end. Good luck.
|Besides teaching your pup to give things up willingly, you also have to teach your pup what's hers to chew on. That's why I prefer to have a household that resembles a day care - with toys and bones all over the place, lol. I do have certain toys that are strictly for training, but it's easy to keep my own possessions tooth-mark free by providing him with his own things.
Teach the dog "leave it" or "Out" command using play routines while tugging. This way you do not lower yourself in rank and the dog willingly gives up the prized object, taking the tug away without command is stealing in the dogs eyes. Only a lower rank pack member would attempt it and will get corrected by the dog (this is what she communicated by growling).
As your dog is just 10 months old, this feeling is just awakening and will get much stronger if you do not change anything. By teaching the out/leave it command you put her in OB mode and she will willingly gives up the object, now you can remove it and there will be no growls (or bites). She will respect you more.
If you do not change the technique, it will become a fight. If you win, the dog will not like to be with you. If she wins, you will need stitches. Both outcomes are bad.
One of those things where you have to see the dog to really give a good answer to a degree.
A bunch of the sport dogs I work with will growl on tugs, toys, and whatever else when challenged or just playing around. There are a few that will give a battle roar when flying at you to return the tug that could intimidate the **** out of some people. Some of em roar and show teeth when they are possessing and you move in to steal. It is part of the game.

|Great article about bite thresholds, and growling and the various other signs that a bit may be imminent: Reactive Champion: Good Dogs Bite, Too: Why You Need to Understand the Bite Threshold Model
Oh wow, selzer, will you marry me in a totally I love you platonically way? What you said is dead on, and explains it very very well.
I liken training dogs to teaching young kids, if they've never been shown how to do "x", then can we expect to know "x" already? So the best way to teach your dog (kid/cat/llama/whatever) not to do something is to give them an alternative behavior to do instead. Don't want them jumping up and down, then reward like mad for sitting, and before long they will sit for attention all the time (my current dog is fantastic at it, and always always runs up to people and sits at their feet to get attention). Same goes for chewing things they shouldn't have, teach her something else and make a huge deal about how good she is when she does it, and pretty quickly she isn't going to bother with that rug because there is something so much more rewarding to do.
Sent from Petguide.com Free App
Your dog was ripping apart a rug? She was doing something highly rewarding, may have been in prey drive, and someone comes up and slaps her in the butt.
Her response is not something I would want. But smacking her again is likely to get you bit. Instead you need to determine how to make her stop the current behavior and then be proactive in how to deal with what happened.
For example, the immediate issue is to get the dog away from the rug and crated so that you could remove the rug or block access to it, so that she cannot continue to rip apart an inappropriate object. I would have said, Eh! My rug! And then I would have called the dog to me, Boogerbutt, Come, Sit. Good Girl! Kennel. I would then have dealt with the rug.
The growl is a warning. You do not want your dog growling at you, but that growl was saying, "Hey! Don't Do That or I will BITE you!" Punishing the growl, might stop the growl, but it doesn't address the problem.
The problem is you have a bitch that is going to challenge you if you push her unfairly -- in her opinion. She may have some resource guarding going on, but maybe not. But you have the start of some problems. It coincides with the infamous teenager stage. But teenager stage/butthead stage generally looks something like this:
Fido, come!
Ah but these butterflies are so much more interesting right now.
Fido! Come!
Eh, did he call me, I'm busy right now, dude.
Oh, Ok! If you insist, do you have a treat???
Fido! Sit!
Sit? Hmmmm? What was that? Uhm, Sit? What's SIT mean again?
Walking through the parking lot, and a little poodle comes from the other direction.
Fido! What the heck?!? You've seen dogs before.
Oh yeah that's a dog. right, a dog.
Man in baseball cap comes up.
EH! Fido, knock it off, it's just a man.
Oh yeah! but he could be a bad guy ya know!
Sometimes the teenager stage takes the form of aggressiveness to members of the family, but not usually the main caregiver. And any aggression toward family members, is something that needs to be addressed immediately.
Check out NILIF (Nothing In Life Is Free). Your dog is full of herself, and she needs to work for every thing now. Not all dogs need this, but no more on the couch, on the bed, etc. She is not clear about who is the leader and that has to change.
She needs regular exercise. Get outside with her and bust her fanny! Go for an hour's walk, and then throw the ball in the back yard for 20 to 30 minutes, then do a training session with her.
Training. Training is where you build the bond. It will definitely help to affirm your leadership techniques that you are doing with NILIF. She needs to go to classes, one a week, until further notice, and she needs to work out with 2-3 15 - 20 minute sessions with you every day. Make her brain tired, not just her body. Use lots of praise though. Set her up to succeed and praise her for doing so, and try to make it fun and stop before she is done.
************************************************** *
A slap on the butt is not the best way to manage the situation. But it should not have elicited that response in your dog. We need to be able to do things to our dogs that they do not like, clip toenails, give baths, put meds in a sore ear, dig crap out of their mouthes. But they are also smart. If she saw that slap as punishment, some dogs will object to physical punishment but stand still for something that really does hurt, like cleaning a wound, putting meds in a blown up ear, giving a shot, etc. Not sure what is the case here.
She needs to trust you. That's part of the bond, and that will not come from slaps. You need to make yourself more enticing to her, so that you can draw her away from something rather than go in and remove something from her, at least for now. Even if you have to go to the fridge and get a hunk of cheese for her, You are not rewarding her for doing the bad thing. You are opening the fridge and then getting her attention and then giving her commands, and treating/praising her for that. Then you will put her where she cannot continue to do whatever it was, and then alter that situation. Down the road, when you work on Leave It, when the bond is stronger, you will be able to say, EH! Leave it, and your dog will. But for now, I would not drag her away from something, and I would not drag something away from her. I would entice her away from whatever, get her contained and then manage the situation better.

Doesn't it make more sense to show the dog what is right? If you communicate to the dog that it is doing something wrong, then show it the right thing to do, there a better chance that the dog will understand. JMHO

I disagree - I think snacking her backside would get that kind of reaction. Your statement doesn't make you sound like the most knowledge savvy dog owner.

The Beltrami County Board of Commissioners held a public hearing on Tuesday regarding a proposed change to the county's tobacco ordinance that would regulate the use of so-called electronic cigarettes.
The most controversial part of the ammendment would place a ban on sampling tobacco products, including the liquids used in e-cigs, even in stores devoted primarily to those products.
Eighteen people spoke at the hearing, including Matt Bewley, the owner of Northern Vapes in downtown Bemidji. Bewley told the commissioners that such a ban on sampling would essetially, "cripple my business."
Proponents of the ordinance including a representative from the American Lung Association also spoke at the meeting.
The board passed the ordinance on a 3-2 vote with commissioners Lucachick and Sumner voting against. It was the second reading; the third and final reading is scheduled for the next meeting after which it would become law.

CHAPEL HILL - Freshman forward Joel James experienced plenty of firsts in North Carolina basketball's opening weekend.
After a six-point-and-four-rebound performance in his collegiate debut against Gardner-Webb on Friday, James made significant strides in between then and Sunday's game against Florida Atlantic.
The West Palm Beach, Fla., native put up 11 points and eight rebounds in just his second game in the Smith Center, as the Tar Heels took down the Owls 80-56.
James is determined to continue that improvement throughout his first season in Chapel Hill too - even if that means he had to experience coach Roy Williams' in-game temper for the first time to get there.
After taking off on the break a little too quickly while Florida Atlantic players were still taking shots, Williams let loose on James and fellow freshman J.P. Tokoto. But to James, Williams' yelling was just one more part of the learning experience and his drive to get better.
"Obviously when coach yells at you, it's a pretty scary thing," James said. "He's a small man, but he's very powerful. He can be very intimidating, but what he's preaching to us is right. He wants us to do the right things on the floor, so obviously you just have to take it all in and go out there and execute."
James, who started the second half, said Williams also had some words of encouragement for his freshman big man following the game.
"Coach said in the locker room, 'You've gotten better from last game to this game,'" James said. "But obviously there's still a lot of room for improvement."
Currently that means making smarter choices on defense. James said he is working on staying on the ground and fouling his opponents less.
But James' teammates are already impressed with what they have seen from James and the freshmen forwards.
"They're doing great," sophomore James Michael McAdoo said. "They're doing better than I was as a freshman, so I'm ecstatic for all of them. They're just a blessing to play with and they're great guys off the court. On the court they're just grasping the offense and the defense and just really buying in, which is what we need."
Junior guard Reggie Bullock added: "Joel's coming along very well for us. He's a big body, he runs the floor well, he's strong down low. It's coming along for him, so he's doing really good for us."
Players like McAdoo and Bullock have been key role models for James in his UNC career thus far. Since the forward didn't start playing organized basketball until 10th grade, James said he has acted like a sponge around the team's more experienced players, hoping to learn as much as he can as quickly as possible.
As the biggest player on UNC's roster in both weight and size, James added that he is eager to be a physical presence for the Tar Heels in the coming months.
Though still adjusting to the everyday demands of college life and the colder weather, James has been happiest with his scoring and, most importantly, helping the team start off 2-0.
"It is tough just physically with practice," James said. "We have practice on Monday, weights on Monday, practice on Tuesday. We have class, obviously, so studying. I actually have a paper to write for my drama class, so it's a lot. But you get through it. It's pretty rewarding when you get a win."

text: http://nvspb.ru/stories/fedyu-i-ksyushu-ubrali-50314 Ludmila Velikova, coach of the pair skaters Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov, thinks that her athletes were underscored at the Russian national championships. Russian national figure skating championships, held in Sochi before the New Year, turned out to be interesting and controversial. Unfortunately, figure skating fans didn't get to see it. Mostly, the audience in the Iceberg skating palace consisted of volunteers, soldiers and construction workers, and it was broadcasted by the obscure satellite channel. NV correspondent asked Liudmila Velikova, whose pupils Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov took the bronze at the event, to speak about the championships. Oleg Alekseev (OA): What surprised you at the Nationals? Ludmila Velikova (LV): I'm going to start with the bad one, the story with Konstantin Menshov. I think that the coaches demonstrated great solidarity and decency. And the athletes, too. Everybody wants Konstantin Menshov to go to the European Championships, because he deserves it, having placed third at the Nationals. There are some rules, norms of conduct. You cannot just ignore the coaches. If there were no coaches, there wouldn't be others, either Maxim Trankov, of course, was very pleasant to watch. Yuko Kavaguti and Alexander Smirnov skated well. But I think, if you apply the same principle as with Menshov, my pupils have to go to Euros. Because by the same logic, what is the purpose, in perspective, to drag thirty years old girl to international competitions? I have a great respect for Yuko and Sasha. They got themselves out from such a pit They found the strength and courage to get themselves together. And after such an unsuccessful Grand Prix Final, they had great skates at the Nationals. So it's double standards. At some point, they want to solve "state issues", like with Menshov. But at the same time, there is an opposite approach to Stolbova/Klimov. Moreover, we re-watched our skates at the nationals. There simply aren't the mistakes the were "found' by technical specialists and controllers. Fedor is a very competent guy. He always analyzes our skates, trying to find the mistakes, how to avoid them He says: "Today in the morning I re-watched it again. It isn't what it looks like in protocols. We didn't have a level 1 death spiral. Never!" I will explain: in our case, it is impossible for us to do a level 1 death spiral. Because it is set up for level 4. And all our lift are level 4. And at the Russian Nationals we got everything downgraded a level or two. And thus they got rid of us. Why? Is it a statesmanship? No, I don't think it is. I see no logic in the Federation's actions. OA: If you don't mind, a few more words about the singles. LV: I would like to say particularly of Misha Kolyada. I didn't like some things in his free program, but in the short he skated great! He is a very talented boy, and, unfortunately, he also is being held off. But he still manages to outskate the rest. And he will continue to, because you cannot hide the talent. I hope he qualifies for the Junior Worlds and skates well there. Also I liked Zhenya Plushenko a lot. Most of all, his fighting spirit. He managed to get the program together, even though it was very difficult for him. As I know from Alexei Nikolaevich Mishsin, he hasn't had a single full run-through at practices. He performed it for the first time at the Nationals. He is great, of course. But it is such an abuse of his health God help him. OA: Was it a surprise for you that neither Alena Leonova, nor Ksenia Makarova didn't get even close to the top three? LV: It was going to happen, to be honest. I was with Ksusha at training camp. You could have seen, that she is a person that has a choice: to skate or to study. It's completely different when there is only sport and nothing else, "blinders on the eyes, and forward!" I feel sorry for Alena, of course. Because there isn't anything for her besides figure skating. Ksusha is her own person. She is, if I'm not mistaken, in her second year of a very good college. Her life is going to be alright. It's just for now, life chose this variant, with the sport. Actually, at the Russian Nationals ladies singles were the subject of the most heated discussions. Or, more accurately, the Federation's politics in that regard. I think, that the Federation was destroying both Leonova and Makarova with their own hands. Because it is one thing when 12-13 year olds do the jumps that they later lose because of their growth. But it is completely another matter when grown up skaters try to beat them up in difficulty. They cannot do that. And the olders lose to the young kids. And how are they supposed to go and compete at the European championships? After such psychological trauma? Look at Polina Shelepen (at some point in time, she was considered to be one of the main hopes at the Sochi Olympics - NV). She has no jumps left. Because her body is changing. You have to get used to it - to the new height, new weight Yes, we know how to prepare juniors. But very soon, we won't have any senior skaters left with such approach. And besides, you have to be careful with athletes. Especially the ones who are in the transition period. Look what is happening to Adelina Sotnikova. Liza Tuktamysheva has a difficult time now, although she deals with it amazingly well. Mishin, by the way, is very careful with her. He is like a grandfather for her. And he is an amazing coach, of course. Now he has a right attitude towards skaters. OA: There are different variants after Sochi. It could happen that Volosozhar-Trankov, Kavaguti-Smirnov and Bazarova-Larionov all retire almost at the same time. Who will be left? LV: That's what I'm saying. Why not to support young skaters? Of course, we got some kind of support, I cannot deny that. Fedor and Ksusha were granted participation in the World Team Trophy. But it will be only in April! And until then, I have to keep them in shape. With what? Russian Cup Final? As a matter of fact, the season is over for them. OA: The main problem of today is the lack of "material" for pair skating? LV: I think here, in Saint-Petersburg, the problem is that there are no candidates. If there is a boy, there isn't a girl. In Moscow, there are girls for pair skating. And everybody will go to Moscow. Because there are money, they can provide the lodging and meals. Like Natalia Pavlova did. She found a girl for Nodari Maisuradze. Very good girl, from somewhere close to Moscow. Pavlova has the means to provide lodging and boarding. And as a result, she's got a great pair. OA: There is one more problem - the lack of coaches. LV: Well, who wants to work? Alexei Gorshkov was right to say that all the young coaches work for money. They make money any way they can. Because they need a place to live, a car. And not only coaches. I have a student, Andrei Kositsin. He does not want to live off his mother. And he makes money - dances on the plastic ice, takes part in ice show. He doesn't train, and there are three weeks left until the Russian Cup Final. We made him good programs, prepared him well. And he doesn't want to compete, wants to make money. Denis Cheprasov, the friend of my grandson, Vasily Velikov, got 60000 rub [~2000$] in three days for moving the cards in the "Alice in Wonderland" show. Why would you sweat at practices when you can make money so easily? Nikolai Matveevich Velikov (coach, Liudmila Velikova's husband - NV) gets a salary of 13000 rub [428$] a month. Who will work for such money?

As the bloodiest year in Afghanistan comes to a close since the US led invasion of 2001, the British government is preparing new approaches to dealing with the situation confronting its forces. Since the beginning of the year over 6,000 people have been killed including 40 British soldiers. Th Cabinet approved a three prong approach to Afghanistan based on improving security, economic development and engaging in discussions with Taliban leaders. A high level source in the British government who accompanied Brown on his recent trip to Afghanistan, reported the prime minister said, "We need to ask who are we fighting? Do we need to fight them? Can we be talking to them?" Several key British officials believe it is a mistake to regard the Taliban as a unified body. The "Taliban" is in reality a conglomeration of religious leaders, tribal chieftains, disgruntled farmers and some foreign fighters.
Gordon Brown is proposing a more complex and sophisticated approach to Afghanistan than the simplistic Bush/Cheney view that the Taliban is a unified coherent group led by religious figures. Brown is apparently distancing himself from the Blair/Bush military view of solving problems. Many British officials reject Bush's emphasis on poppy eradication programs which only drive farmers into the open arms off the Taliban. Some have even suggested buying up the entire opium production as being more cost effective than fighting farmers and their Taliban allies. British troops have left Basra much to the dismay of American military leaders, and an emphasis on economic development and diplomatic negotiations with the Taliban will undoubtedly infuriate the Bush administration. The bottom line is simple, things are getting worse in Afghanistan and it is time to attempt new approaches. Brown is making an interesting proposal which should be attempted.

Fox Whitewashes Tea Party Group's History To Push For Voter ID Laws
Fox News continued its relentless [1] advocacy [2] of disenfranchising voter ID laws this morning, as Fox & Friends' Gretchen Carlson hosted Catherine Engelbrecht, the founder of the Tea Party-affiliated organization True the Vote, to trump up voter fraud claims and tout voter ID laws.
During the segment, Engelbrecht said that "we absolutely agree that photo voter ID would help improve the overall integrity and accuracy of the process" and suggested that voter fraud was a rampant problem undermining "free and fair elections." And Carlson even prompted Engelbrecht to tell viewers how they could get involved, leading Engelbrecht to tell potential volunteers to check out the group's website. Watch:
But contrary to the claim that voter ID laws would "improve the overall integrity" of the voting process, NYU's Brennan Center for Justice has found [3] that more than 3 million voters across the country do not possess photo IDs required by newly passed voter ID laws.
For example, as the Los Angeles Times reported [4] in May 2008, elderly nuns and college students "were turned away from polls" after Indiana's voter ID law was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court. In January 2008, The New York Times reported [5] that more than 30 eligible voters in a single Indiana county had their votes thrown out because of the law.
Additionally, Keesha Gaskins, senior counsel for the Brennan Center's Democracy Program, recently found [6] that the laws are more likely to impact minority voters:
Looking at voter ID laws alone, we know that although 11 percent of Americans [7] lack government-issued photo ID, 25 percent of African-Americans, 16 percent of Hispanics, and 18 percent of elderly voters do not have this form of ID. States have also passed restrictions on early voting and community voter registration drives. Communities of color are more than twice as likely to register to vote with these groups, and they use early voting days at a much higher rate than the general population.
Moreover, despite the suggestion that voter fraud is a widespread issue undermining the integrity of elections in the U.S., a plurality of Supreme Court justices found [8] in 2008 that actual instances of voter fraud are few and "scattered." The Brennan Center has also noted [9] that allegations of voter fraud "simply do not pan out" and distract from "real [election] problems that need real solutions."
During the segment, Carlson expressed surprise that anyone would protest the "nonpartisan ... nonprofit" True the Vote's efforts, saying to Engelebrecht, "You would think that both sides of the aisle would want this to be the way that you're trying to make it." Carlson later aired video of people protesting True the Vote and said, "[S]o we're watching people who came out to protest the fact that you were just trying to make sure elections didn't have fraud in them."
But after a review of True the Vote's history -- which Carlson ignored -- it's really not all that surprising that people would protest the group. In October 2010, the organization -- an offshoot [10] of the Texas-based Tea Party group King Street Patriots -- was accused of voter intimidation at polling places in Harris County, Texas, prompting an investigation by the Justice Department. Talking Points Memo reported [11] at the time:
Poll watchers in Harris County, Texas -- where a Tea Party group launched an aggressive anti-voter fraud effort -- were accused of "hovering over" voters, "getting into election workers' faces" and blocking or disrupting lines of voters who were waiting to cast their ballots as early voting got underway yesterday.
Now, TPMMuckraker has learned, the Justice Department has interviewed witnesses about the alleged intimidation and is gathering information about the so-called anti-voter fraud effort.
Harris County, the biggest county in the state, is where a Tea Party group called the King Street Patriots launched an anti-voter fraud initiative [12] called "True the Vote," which recruited poll watchers and amped up fears over groups like the community organizing group ACORN.
The Houston Chronicle reported [10] that True the Vote's poll watching also sparked a lawsuit from the Texas Democratic Party as well as an ethics complaint from the watchdog group Texans for Public Justice.
And a list of speakers at True the Vote's 2012 national summit [13] -- which was held over the weekend -- reads like a Who's Who of voter fraud hucksters, including J. Christian Adams [14], Hans von Spokovsky [15], James O'Keefe [16], and John Fund [17]. (Adams has also acknowledged [18] serving as a lawyer for True the Vote.)
And while True the Vote bills itself as nonpartisan -- a point Carlson was sure to repeatedly mention -- it's worth noting what one speaker had to say [10] at the organization's 2012 summit over the weekend: that President Obama is going to register the "food stamp army" in order to steal the election:
Several speakers were determinedly nonpartisan, or bipartisan, despite the rightward leanings of their audience. "We don't take a position on President Obama's election. We take a position on free and fair elections," said Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, a Washington-based government watchdog group.
It was also Fitton, however, who delivered a warning: "I fear the Obama gang is setting themselves up to steal the election."
He also accused the president of wanting "to register the food stamp army to vote for him."

text: Turk has opted out. If the Magic just swap Carter for Turkoglu then it's a net loss for them, especially after losing Battie in the trade. It all hinges on whether someone is willing to open the bank and provide Turkoglu a big payday. I don't think he's worth anywhere near the $10m he says he wants (he's walking away from $7.4). He'll also be looking for years - this is his chance to score some bucks - his next contract, if there is one will be for less. Tough times to walk away from $7.4mm, but if his agent believes free agency will pay even less next year with a possible cap reduction then it might have been his only choice.

I've sourced most of my parts already - Armour: KWDesigns, Belt/JP Harness - Seeker, Bucket/Jetpack: Cruzer all great guys who have answered countless PM's already.
My first questions regards the boots. I've posted some pics below and would like to get some advice. From my understanding Bo Katan wears a low-cut ankle shoe, not a boot.
if however it is indeed a boot then i've found this one from the same makers
let me know your thoughts. I will keep this thread up to date with progress shots.

im having problems figuring out what to use for the stock mount thingy that looks like a sideways y. any ideas? help!!!!
If I were you I would just fabricate it out of wood.
Whatever you do decide to use, remember that's an area of stress concentrations. If the blaster is likely to break anywhere, it's most likely gonna break there first.
good call guys thanks.
Exactly you can make the templates and make it in wood.:thumbsup :fettrotj
I had mine laser cut in wood.
There are even some in resin on ebay, just check out the stores after you type in, "Fett Prop."
You could also send a PM to Sidewinder, he makes the entire blaster, I'm sure he wouldn't mind making a single part for you. His is also reinforced with steel I believe..
i used an old alluminium road sign.
can you post a pic of your road sign part?
To hankey01 you must speak
Make some he has...
I am having my new kits done with water jet cut aluminum. Once I have the first 5 done I'll start posting kit pictures.
I made one out of 1/4" Sintra and it's wobbly! I suggest aluminum.
Layer several layers of Sintra, Polystyrene, ABS, plywood or what have yah with layers of fiberglass resin and reinforcing fabric..Layer it like a cake to the thickness you want..works well :thumbsup
I traced my stock part to 10mm plywood, and then dremelled the whole thing to shape. If the weapon is to break at some point, it is in the seam where I attached the plywood to the hilt. But the stock will not break, that's for sure though..
There is the option of getting a resin castin from an original webley stock braket.
I do have a mold to make one and I know
sidewinder could get you one too. If you want to go that route
How about MDF , its pretty strong & easier to sand to a smooth finish than plywood ,alternatively sidewinders are resin reinforced with metal and i am sure he could supply one to you .
I cut mine out of 1/8 inch aluminum with a dremel. The thing is super stong an durable, it took me forever though:facepalm
This is an original on the left, a cleaned and painted one on the original stock in the center, and a raw 1/4" water cut alluminium one on the right.
I used 3/8" plywood. Works great only thing you need to watch is make sure you cut the stock with the grain of the plywood going from front to back not top to bottom. If you do cut it with the grain running from top to bottom it will not be very sturdy.

Scholar-Athlete Profile: Andrew Triggs
Feb. 14, 2012
Scholar-Athlete Profile: Andrew Triggs
Growing up did your parents always support an academics first attitude?
Was college baseball always part of the plan?
Were academics a big part of you attending USC?
What made you choose a political science major as an undergraduate?
As an undergrad was there a favorite class or professor or something fun that you took?
You were selected by the San Francisco Giants but choose to come back to USC to pursue an MBA. Why books before baseball?
I got rid of all my furniture and drove my car back to Nashville. I was ready to move on. I didn't know where I was going to get drafted. In all seriousness I thought it would possibly be a little higher, but even when it happen, I said this is going to be the next step I'm definitely going to sign and move on with it. As things developed over the summer with the opportunity to start a graduate degree, I decided I wanted to pursue it immediately. I came back here and play another year here at USC and possibly take care of some unfinished business from a baseball standpoint. We have a great core of guys and I think this is a group that could go on to regionals and possibly do something bigger. Once the MBA came into the picture I really started to take more seriously the idea of coming back. It was really something I didn't even consider until mid-way through July.
You hope continue to play baseball for as long as possible but do you have any plans or goals to but your graduate studies to use?
But when your 50?
Is there a specific emphasis you are studying or are interested in?
This is your first year as a graduate student how is going so far?
Being an undergraduate student-athlete can be pretty time consuming. Is it different being a graduate student and an athlete?
Even with the busy schedule do you still feel like you got the "college experience?"
Is there anything that you learned as a student that transferred into helping you be a better athlete or vice versa?
Do you have a favorite academic moment or concept or ideas that you can look back on and make you smile?
What has been the best part about being a student-athlete?
