i am trying to get in touch with tupperwaretk, or Ward. my friend Darrell Phillips or madog 6234 told me that you would be the one to talk to about some replacement parts for my tk armor. i got a set of armor second hand and it fits pretty well, but the forearm pieces are about an inch to short. and i am also looking for a new helmet. i have a MR helmet and it works but i want to go a bit more true to the film, so i am looking for one of those as well.
if you are anyone out there can help me please hit me up firstname.lastname@example.com or on facebook at h. david phillips. i am hoping to get into the 501st with this armor so i have a few more things to get right.
thanks for any help.

'"That would be unusual," Ruff said of Peel's behavior. "The referees 99 percent of the time show a lot of class and they're under a lot of duress. They take a lot of abuse, even to a point where they give players a lot of room. If this is just that rare occasion, it's a rare occasion that happened."'

Gilchrist: Your letters: We're opening our kimonos
October 10, 2012
How do visitors and newcomers meet up with active, over-50 adults in Summit County? A few weeks ago, I asked for your advice after a visitor said that his annual ski trip to Summit County had become a lonely experience ever since his buddies from the Midwest had given up the sport.
Annie B. wrote, "I recommend the Over the Hill Gang at Copper. (It's open to anyone over 45 years old.) That's how I got started meeting folks in Summit County, and then, I decided to move here. It's a guaranteed way to have a group to ski with at least four days a week and make friends to link up with the rest of the seasonal days." Many of you said that the pro guides, skill development and camaraderie at Copper Mountain's Over-the-Hill Gang make it one of your favorite ways to meet people. The web page: http://www.coppercolorado.com/winter/ski_and_ride_school/over_the_hill_gang
Frisco local and avid cyclist Carol Clarke recommends the Summit Biking organization. She says the group is open to all ages and skill levels and that "they picnic after the rides, so there is a social side as well." Summit Biking is dedicated to road cycling. Their website: http://www.summitbiking.org/Mountain bikers of all ages should check out http://www.summitfattire.org/
Annie B. recommends the National Repertory Orchestra, the Alpenglow Chamber Music Festival and the Breckenridge Music Festival. She says they "all have lovely receptions and fund raising events in addition to their concerts" and that these events are attended by interesting people from all over the United States.
Rob Dollars, a volunteer with the Breckenridge Heritage Alliance http://www.breckheritage.com/, reminds us that the Heritage Center hosts easy walking tours and challenging guided hikes designed to appeal to a wide range of interests. Rob is currently guiding a few of the mining history hikes, a Breckenridge historic saloon tour and a twilight tombstone tour of Valley Brook Cemetery. Rob writes, "The walking tours are definitely all-ages friendly. Even on my mine tour hikes, I have enjoyed the company of many guests in their 60s and 70s. Often, they have a professional or amateur interest in mining history and I wind up learning at least as much from them as they do from me. So, send those folks our way."What else is out there? Strum the shamisen as we open our kimonos to reveal the number one social hot spot in the county . . . "My goodness, I bet you're inundated with replies to this one. Haven't you heard of the Summit County Senior organization?" wrote Charlotte Clarke, a volunteer at the center. "Our building is the Community and Senior Center at County Commons (0083 Nancy's Place in Frisco). We seniors volunteer all over the county on a daily basis and have a newsletter at the office as well as on line at http://www.co.summit.co.us. There are hundreds of indoor and outdoor activities in our 12-page newsletter every month! I think there are 2,000 of us. You can check by calling (970) 668-2940.""The annual fee is only $10 to participate in everything we offer. This is a really fun, embracing community of people," says Gavin Larney, manager of the Summit County Community & Senior Center (SCSC). SCSC has hiking, cycling groups, yoga and chi gong classes. Steep discounts are available for over-55 golfers through the center for Keystone Resort Golf. If you'd rather get out and explore, the SCSC offers groups who attend concerts, plays and events, and enjoy excursions, travel and day trips. Join the book clubs, or quilting groups, participate in the extremely popular bridge parties and mahjong meet ups. Attend classes on computers and new developments in the law. Don't eat alone: lunches and dinners are available at the center or for home delivery through the Mountain Meals program for a sliding fee of $3 to $5. For more information call the Meals Hotline at (970) 668-2944. Carol Clarke says of Summit County living, "Once you get involved here, you'll start meeting wonderful people from all over the country and you'll find that your circles of new friends keep overlapping."On a personal note: thank you for the excellent advice on growing tomatoes at 9,000 feet. The Droopy Carrot award goes to those of you who bragged about the size of your root vegetables. And, I appreciate the sentiment, but please – don't send photos of your 'Sexy Cucumber' Halloween costume. And no, I won't sit on your lap.

Congrats on the purchase, the XD9 is a great choice. Did you purchase the SC or Service? I'm not someone who goes to the range to just shoot away ammo. Most of my firearms are designated for defense purposes, and I practice with them at the range in the same configuration as they would be while carrying, in the night stand, etc. So, I've never had a need or desire for a 30-round magazine. I'm sure you could find some info on the net somewhere about the quality of the various 30-rounders you're looking at, though.
There are a lot of threads around here about cheap practice ammo. I prefer Blazer Brass, WWB, and Remington UMC (in that order) for my practice rounds. Not one of these is significantly cleaner than the others, and they will all require cleaning on the same schedule. Most people clean their guns after every range session anyways, so most any practice ammo would be good for the range. The XD is not picky about ammo.
For a cleaning kit, the basic handgun cleaning kits from the sporting goods store or gun store would be a good start. Personally, I like the product G96 for cleaning, and I lube with either Hoppe's, or gunslick graphite lube. The best thing to do would be to try different products and develops your own likes and dislikes about each of them.
Good luck with it...and...

int info = pvm_unpackf( const char *fmt, ... )
int info = pvm_upkbyte( char *xp, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkcplx( float *cp, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkdcplx( double *zp, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkdouble( double *dp, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkfloat( float *fp, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkint( int *ip, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkuint( unsigned int *ip, int nitem, int stride )
int info = pvm_upkushort( unsigned short *ip, int nitem, int stride )

int info = pvm_upklong( long *ip, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkshort( short *jp, int nitem, int stride)
int info = pvm_upkstr( char *sp ) Fortran
call pvmfunpack( what, xp, nitem, stride, info )
An exception is pvm_upkstr() which by definition unpacks a NULL terminated character string and thus does not need nitem or stride arguments. The Fortran routine pvmfunpack( STRING, ... ) expects nitem to be the number of characters in the string and stride to be 1.
If the unpacking is successful, info will be 0. If some error occurs then info will be < 0.
A single variable (not an array) can be unpacked by setting nitem = 1 and stride = 1.
The routine pvm_unpackf() uses a printf-like format expression
to specify what and how to unpack data from the receive buffer.
All variables are passed as addresses.
A BNF-like description of the format syntax is:
format : null | init | format fmt
init : null | '%' '+'
fmt : '%' count stride modifiers fchar
fchar : 'c' | 'd' | 'f' | 'x' | 's'
count : null | [0-9]+ | '*'
stride : null | '.' ( [0-9]+ | '*' )
modifiers : null | modifiers mchar
mchar : 'h' | 'l' | 'u'
+ means initsend - must match an int (how) in the param list. c pack/unpack bytes d integer f float x complex float s string Modifiers: h short (int) l long (int, float, complex float) u unsigned (int)
Future extensions to the what argument in pvmfunpack will include 64 bit types when XDR encoding of these types is available. Meanwhile users should be aware that precision can be lost when passing data from a 64 bit machine like a Cray to a 32 bit machine like a SPARCstation. As a mnemonic the what argument name includes the number of bytes of precision to expect. By setting encoding to PVMRAW (see pvmfinitsend) data can be transferred between two 64 bit machines with full precision even if the PVM configuration is heterogeneous.
Messages should be unpacked exactly like they were packed to insure data integrity. Packing integers and unpacking them as floats will often fail because a type encoding will have occurred transferring the data between heterogeneous hosts. Packing 10 integers and 100 floats then trying to unpack only 3 integers and the 100 floats will also fail.
C: info = pvm_recv( tid, msgtag ); info = pvm_upkstr( string ); info = pvm_upkint( &size, 1, 1 ); info = pvm_upkint( array, size, 1 ); info = pvm_upkdouble( matrix, size*size, 1 ); int count, *iarry; double darry[4]; pvm_unpackf("%d", &count); pvm_unpackf("%*d %4lf", count, iarry, darry); Fortran: CALL PVMFRECV( TID, MSGTAG, INFO ); CALL PVMFUNPACK( INTEGER4, NSIZE, 1, 1, INFO ) CALL PVMFUNPACK( STRING, STEPNAME, 8, 1, INFO ) CALL PVMFUNPACK( REAL4, A(5,1), NSIZE, NSIZE , INFO )

Phoenix Drops Close Result at Illinois State
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
NORMAL, Ill. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Green Bay (3-5-0) battled the defending Missouri Valley Conference Champions tough on the road on Wednesday afternoon, but Illinois State (6-2-2) scored the game-winning goal in the 78th minute to post a 2-1 victory in non-conference women's soccer action.
"I felt we played a very physical and strong Illinois State team quite well," said head coach Trevor Warren. "I was pleased with the overall effort of everyone that played today.
Illinois State struck first on its home court, getting a goal in the 22nd minute when Aimee Wronski found Kyla Cross with a cross and a 1-0 Redbird lead.
The Phoenix struck for the equalizer in the 41st minute when a Chanel Aries (Calgary, Alberta) shot was saved by ISU keeper Aryn Newsom but sophomore Hannah Kernen (Belleville, Wis.) put the rebound into the net. It was Kernen's second marker of the season.
"We came back well from conceding the first goal and thoroughly deserved to tie it before the half with the goal from Hannah," Warren said. "We were certainly the stronger team going into the interval."
The teams played 30-plus minutes of the second half before the game-winner was scored by the Redbirds. The Phoenix had a chance just minutes earlier when Kernen broke through in the box, but she was tackled by an ISU defender and no penalty kick was awarded. Wronski scored the game winner with a shot from the top of the box in the 78th minute.
Sophomore Katy Pilarzyk (Madison, Wis.) stopped a season-high eight shots
"We had some other good chances to go ahead but the final shot or cross eluded us," Warren said. It's tough to play a strong team on the road but we fought them until the final whistle. If we play like that in our league games we will be tough to beat. We are looking forward to starting league play at home on Saturday, and I know we will be ready."
Green Bay opens Horizon League play on Saturday at home, welcoming Detroit to Aldo Santaga Stadium for a 12 p.m. start.

Getting Started with PAT 2.0ARSC made programming environment 3.2 the default on June 29th. With this change, PAT 2.0 replaced 1.0 as the default version of PAT at ARSC.
PAT (Performance Analysis Tool) is a low-overhead, easy-to-use programming tool which reports on basic aspects of performance, such as:
- load balance across processors
- time spent in subroutines and functions
- hardware counter performance information
First re-link your program with the PAT run-time library and specify the pat.cld loader directive file:
cc *.o -l pat pat.cld -o a.out CC *.o -l pat pat.cld -o a.out f90 *.o -l pat pat.cld -o a.outYou don't need to re-compile, but you could:
cc prog.c -l pat pat.cld -o a.out CC prog.CC -l pat pat.cld -o a.out f90 prog.f -l pat pat.cld -o a.out## # No change in version 2.0 ##
Run as usual:
mpprun -n7 ./a.out## # No change in version 2.0 ##
The program run produces a .pif ("Program Information File") which is given the name of your executable with the extension "[.N].pif" (where "N" is added and incremented as necessary to prevent overwriting existing files).
Now run PAT, giving it the "-L" flag, the names of the executable and .pif files, and other flags according to the output desired. For instance:
pat -L -m -p -T a.out a.out.pifThe flag, "-L," specifies "line-mode," circumventing the default X Windows System GUI. "-m" requests performance-counter information, "-p," profile information, and "-T," timing information.
## # Two changes since 1.0: # # 1) In PAT 1.0, executables produce pdf ("Program Data Files") not # .pif files. The format of pdf and .pif files differ: you # can't use pat 2.0 to look at pdf files. # # 2) In PAT 1.0, line-mode is the only interface. # # # The flags, -m, -p, -T, and others are unchanged. ##

- PAT 2.0 can't read pdf files produced by PAT 1.0.
Don't be fooled by the wording of the man page, which states:
a.outfile.pif Specifies the name of the PAT information file. [ ... ] This parameter is optional.This parameter is not optional if you want to examine results. If you leave it off, yet ask to see results, PAT halts (but with a helpful message):
yukon$ pat -L -m circle.pat
performance counter display option not available without pat data fileIf you leave it off and don't ask for results, then PAT enters a different mode which lets you instrument your code for tracing.
Here are the two notes about PAT 2.0 I was able to find in the document:
Programming Environment Releases Overview RO-5212 3.0.2
which is available on-line at: http://techpubs.sgi.com/
3.3.1 Pthread Support in PAT
The Performance Analysis Tool (PAT) now supports the pthread library and can be used to check performance of threads on all PEs.
Note: Due to the implementation of pthread support in PAT, pdf files created with older versions of PAT will not work with this release of PAT. The files must be recreated.3.3.2 Binary Event Tracing for MPI Routines in PAT
The Performance Analysis Tool (PAT) now allows the insertion of trace calls into a user binary file. The user can provide entry and exit trace routines in the form of a .o or .a include file in the link or by using the generic trace routines provided by libpat.a.
If needed, ARSC users may still access PAT 1.0 by entering the command:
module switch PrgEnv PrgEnv.oldNote that this capability will be removed on the next PE upgrade.
ARSC Lecture: Linux Clusters, Supercomputing, and EducationDr. Don Morton of the University of Montana and ARSC will give a presentation on linux clusters, supercomputing, and education, titled:
The talk will be Monday July 12, 1:30-2:30 pm in Butrovich Building, room 109, and is open to all.
Over the course of the 1990's technology advances have made it possible for increasing numbers of researchers to use supercomputers for solving their large-scale computational problems. At the same time, Free Unix operating systems have increased the power of personal computers and workstations by providing familiar environments to those familiar with the "Unix" way of doing things. The two seemingly disparate computing environments actually have much in common, and occupy unique niches in a symbiotic relationship.
The talk begins by presenting experiences of the author in using and building Linux clusters for scientific and parallel computing activities, coupled with research activities at the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center.
Through a description of research and education activities, we explore the thesis that workstation clusters (focusing on Linux) are often the ideal environment for training and code development activities in high performance computing, while supercomputing systems remain the environment of choice for large-scale number-crunching. Finally, we present suggestions on how you, too, can build your own supercomputer.Speaker Biography:
Don Morton received his PhD in Computer Science from Louisiana State University in 1994, with research interests in scientific computing, particularly finite element methods as applied to fluid flow problems.
Don is currently a Professor of Computer Science at The University of Montana where he makes heavy use of Linux clusters for research and education.
Don is also an ARSC research affiliate, has worked here every summer since 1994, and has been a regular contributor to this newsletter. Here's a list of his past articles:

Quick-Tip Q & A
A:{{ Sometimes I need to duplicate entire "branches" of an existing directory tree. For instance, I might need this structure: ./v12/19990201/weather/Burmuda/restart/2301/ ./v12/19990201/weather/Triangle/restart/2303/ As you might guess, it's really annoying to type: mkdir ./v12 mkdir ./v12/19990201 etc... Is there an easier way? }} Thanks go to four readers. Three responded with this answer: mkdir -p ./v12/19990201/weather/Burmuda/restart/2301 mkdir -p ./v12/19990201/weather/Triangle/restart/2303 And the fourth with this: mkdir -p ./v12/19990201/weather/Burmuda/restart/2301 \ ./v12/19990201/weather/Triangle/restart/2303 Note that the corresponding "rmdir" option is also "-p". "rmdir -p" recursively removes subdirectories, stopping if it encounters one that is not empty. Removing the directories created above takes two steps: yukon$ rmdir -p v12/19990201/weather/Burmuda/restart/2301 cmd-3192 rmdir: v12/19990201/weather/Burmuda/restart/2301 -- 'v12/19990201/weather' was not removed. The directory is not empty. yukon$ rmdir -p v12/19990201/weather/Triangle/restart/2303 Q: I use "vi" a bit, and sometimes issue shell commands from within it. For instance, !1000j sort sorts the next 1000 lines of the file. I also issue "ex" commands. For instance: :%s/^ \*\* /\<H1\>/c replaces " ** " at the start of lines with "<H1>", and asks for confirmation. The problem is that such commands are easy to mistype, and that once issued, they're gone. You can hit "u" to "undo" the action of the command, but I'd like "command line editing." Is there a trick in vi to retrieve a "!" or ":" command, edit it, and re-execute it?

The Canisius College men's and women's cross country team will compete in the 39th annual Brooks Paul Short Run hosted by Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pa. on Friday afternoon. As one of the largest cross country meets in the nation, the day will feature over 400 high school and college teams with over 5,000 competitors. This year's meet will feature the highest level of competition in race history.
Featuring three men's and women's collegiate races on each side, the Golden Griffin men and women will each compete in the Brown race. The men's 8K-race will begin at 12:15 p.m. followed by the women's 6K-race at approximately 1 p.m.
The Golden Griffin men will race in a field featuring 33 teams from across the country. Joining the Griffs will be three other Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference members, including Loyola, Manhattan, and Little Three rival Niagara.
The Griff men will be making their eighth all-time appearance at the Brooks Paul Short Run. In 1992, the Griffs recorded their best team-finish of tenth place. Former Griff Tom Appenheimer led the way for the Griffs that year, placing a program-best individual-finish of 26th overall with a time of 31:55.
At last year's race on Sept. 30, the Griff men placed 19th in a field of 46 teams. On the rain-drenched course, sophomore Chad Maloy and junior Nate McCabe led the Griffs' top-20 finish. Maloy placed 42nd overall with a time of 26:28 followed closely by McCabe, who clocked in at 26:32 for 45th overall.
The Golden Griffin women will compete in a field of 40 teams, including Pittsburgh, Princeton, South Florida, and Temple. Among MAAC competition, the Griffs will be joined by conference opponent and Little Three rival Niagara.
The Griff women will take the course at the Brooks Paul Short Run for the seventh time in program history. The Griffs best finish at the race came in 2010 with a fourth-place finish among 41 teams after placing 38th overall in 2008. In 2010, former Griff Maura Frauenhofer captured a program-best individual-finish of second overall in a time of 21:39.
Running on a soaked course, the Griff women finished 20th among 44 teams. Former Griffs' Christine Mulvihill and Jill Shea placed 38th and 41st, respectively. Mulvihill clocked in at 23:06, while Shea finished the course in 23:09.

I saw a good step by step tutorial on: AGArms - Saiga
Hope it helps.
I just ordered a Saiga 12 from Scott at DPH (see thread) http://www.gunco.net/forums/f259/sai...89-00-a-40701/
This is a brand new platform for me, I've been looking to do something a little change of pace.
I'm going to do a conversion on it and plan to document it here. This will not be a short term project, As I said this is a new venture and I plan on taking my time and weighing all my options. I will complete it as time, money and parts availability allows.
If anybody has already done one, please post any tricks, tips, pitfalls to avoid and most important, PICS. Lets see them.
Good deal max-- I'm looking forward to it!
There is no nonsense so errant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate governmental action. -- Bertrand Russell
"Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity." Robert J. Hanlon
Sorry I missed your call today, we were out loading the trailer for the show this weekend.
The Saiga popularity is really catching on. It is the closest anyone is going to get to a complete authentic Russian AK. The conversion isnt that difficult and there are more and more items being made for them every day. We have a few things in works, we have a door breach for the 12 gauge that should be ready soon. I will have the prototype this weekend. We will finally have the production run of the Saiga muzzle brakes that will fit the 7.62x39 and the .223 without having to thread the barrel and it will not be a cheesy set screw set up. We got the first prototypes of the quad rail and tri rail for the 7.62, .308 and the .223 and they are really nice. The 12 gauge quad and tri rails will be coming very soon. I'll post pics of these as soon as we get caught up a little and get some "quality" pictures (I'll need to find someone for that.....guns OK camera" now way).
Quick AK-47 Links for DPH Arms (AK-47 Kits, Parts, and Accessories)
I just gave one of my S12s a good workout today testing some of the (relatively) cheap Taiwanese 5 round magazines that I recently purchased. I'm very happy with them; they all worked great.
I still need to do the conversion. I'm just going simple, new trigger group in the right spot, reusing the original trigger guard, and a fixed standard length stock/pg in black. I might vent the forward hand grip, but not sure yet how I'm going to do it.
A buddy of mine has an ACE stock with the cut-off tang attachment and it's nice. I like the look, but I'm not sure I want to shoot 3" magnums with my cheek on a metal tube for a buttstock!
Nice link Thanks. That one is nice as far as it goes, I hope they finish it.
That's the type of thing I am planning to do here.
Well, you're one step ahead of me, I don't even have the shotgun yet. LOL
Keep us posted on your conversion progress.
I found another good link. It's a rifle conversion, but most of it will pertain to the shotty as well.
Saiga Conversion
Take it out and shoot it as is first. I was going to convert mine but like the way it shoots in it's original configuration. If you want the cool factor then a conversion is the way to go. I still might but am enjoying it as is for now.
I really have no legitimate reason for even owning one, were it not for the cool factor. LOL
I already own several hunting shotguns and a Mossy for things that go bump in the night.

Practically every guy enjoys Playboy magazine whether they subscribe or not, and old issues are treated differently than those of other magazines. We don't want to throw them out, particularly those with our favorite Playmates. So collectors and even casual fans have boxes of old issues in their closets and garages.
Now Bondi Digital Publishing has come out with a product that every Playboy fan will love – a USB portable device that gives users immediate access on their computer to every issue from that first iconic Playboy featuring Marilyn Monroe in December 1953, all the way to the December 2009 edition featuring Chelsea Handler– and every issue, award-winning article and advertisement in between. There are over 650 issues and more than 100,000 pages covering a span of 56 years. As for adding content after 2009, a decision hasn't been made yet on whether that will be offered, though the device can be easily updated.
The Playboy Cover-to-Cover Hard Drive is pocket-sized and very easy to use, and it's fun to browse through all the old magazines. Naturally the pictorials will be the most popular – some of our favorites include Cathy St. George from 1982 and Christina Leardini from 1991. But Playboy has always been an influential magazine as well as Hugh Hefner featured some of the best writers of the past 50 years from Norman Mailer to Tom Wolfe. The interviews are excellent as well with an incredible variety of subjects from Steve Jobs to Jimmy Carter to Brett Favre. The software makes it easy to find items through a robust search feature, and it's easy to browse old issues as well. We found a couple of minor glitches, but representatives from Bondi explained that updates and fixes could be downloaded seamlessly.
Priced at $299.95 this isn't an inexpensive item, but there's a ton of value packed into this device. Collectors will love it, along with casual fans as well.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Views: 533
i start with about 15 and then just keep making more copies. i can't afford to make that many copies at one time. maybe one day.
Well, this question is really predicated on what you are doing with your zine.
Do you print for 20 friends? Do you send out copies for review? Do you actively solicit trades? Are you going to a zine show sometime soon?
But definitely printing a copy before printing a bunch is a good idea to make sure it's correct.
I normally start with printing 1,000 and that's a 2 year supply ideally. That may sound crazy in contrast to the postings here, but it's about $200-300 which is then 20-30 cents each. Some zines I've started with 4,000, because I didn't know what I was doing, wanted to get a really cheap price per zine, or never wanted to do a reprint.
if i was photocopying something now that i didn't want to share with every yahoo that i met at a zine conference, i would make 100-200.
because if you even sent out 5 copies for review and gave 10 to your friends you'll be getting orders for around 2-3 per review, it seems you quickly pass 50 copies if you going to sell them anywhere.


text: I am trying to find a krydex paddle holster for my 27/7 Oss .45ACP. I ordered the Fobus holster listed for this pistol. Due to the high front sight and the end of the slide sticking through the bottom, it snagged on the holster when I tried to draw it out and wouldn't come out without sometimes taking the holster off my belt and prying on it. Not a good situation for self defense!!! I sent it back. I have read that the XD holster would work and the Fobus holster was actually marked HK2. Has anyone had any luck with a holster for this pistol. I suppose the lack of availability is because it is fairly new??? I don't really want one of those nylon one size fits all bag looking holsters.

Some videos to help you decide.
These are nice knives. I wasn't sold at first, but they really grow on you. The locking mechanism is seriously strong and secure. It takes a little getting used to, and cleaning and oiling helps, but then it's quite nice--maybe even preferable to liner locks. Blasphemy, I know.
The steel has held up well too. It may not be the primo super steel, but at this price, it's a great buy.
The LARGE is quite intimidating too. Shouldn't have any trouble skinning a deer.
check out this youtube video about the cold steel voyager vaquero large
Price check yourself before you wreck yourself.
Cold Steel Voyager Vaquero
Amazon: $39.99
BladeHQ: $45.95
NotJustKnives: $39.90
ebayBUYITNOW: $38.98
Woot destroyed the competition this time around!
I bought the large serrated last time.
I carry it now as my everyday carry knife (keep in mind that it is big, but I'm 6'4 and 195lbs, so it's not a big footprint in my pockets) but if you intend on carrying this, consider the medium.
Feels very strong, retails for MUCH more on other sites, Woot's offering on this is pretty good. I like mine.
Medium closed, large closed, medium opened, large opened.
Now woot, please get the XL Vaquero up on here!
I bought one the last WOOT-Off for $19.99. And I have one from a previous WOOT as well.
Any reason why there is no large standard blade available?
I wish there was a large standard edge blade available, as I do not like serrations. I suppose the medium will have to do!
Hard - if not impossible - to keep sharpened.
I bought one of the medium smooth and large serrated blade the last time these were up.
They are good quality knives for the price. Good grip, especially on the larger one. I am guessing that the large smooth blade is not available as there was not the surplus of them for Woot to sell. I would rather have had one too.
The one feature I question is the claim of their "lightening fast opening". Granted mine are new and not worn in and oiled etc. but still the claims is far from true more so on the large one, so if that is an important feature I would go with a different knife, perhaps an assisted opening style.

I'm so pissed i have one on the way from amazon right now!!
I've said it time and time again when these come up for sale - you can't buy a better knife for this price. I have abused the hell out of both the serrated and straight edge in both sizes over the months and the larger straight edge is now my EDC . . . I've paid $25 a knife and felt like I got a bargain to brag about, at this price, I'll buy more (and keep on bragging) . . . I REALLY wish woot! would offer a different model of the Cold Steel line of knives as myself, like a lot of others here, would be all over that . . .
Great woot!, don't hesitate, buy three. There is a ton of good info in the comments from previous sales. Check it out!
Do I get flat or serrated?
kevieugene wrote:Do I get flat or serrated?
you get to choose on the medium but only serrated on the large.I like plain edge myself
sdbcmr wrote:Hard - if not impossible - to keep sharpened.
Use a Smith's Pocket Pal (for the serrated) or an AccuSharp 001 (for the straight edge) from Amazon, they get the job done very well and keep the knives in superb working order. The serrated edge takes some work with the Pocket Pal, but you'll get great results if you keep at it! Plus, both are very inexpensive, about $8.00 USD for each sharpening solution!
chriskmee wrote:Any reason why there is no large standard blade available?
Most likely. Question is what's the reason. Can't help you much there either.
Could be we sold out of them a while back.
Or the vendor didn't have any to sell us.
Or we didn't buy any.
Add your own!
You can't keep the sharpened? Are they crappy?
kevieugene wrote:You can't keep the sharpened? Are they crappy?
they aren't crappy at all and and this price i wouldn't pass it up.I'm pissed that i ordered one i should get tomorrow and after shipping here it will be like 25 bucks.i paid 39.99
You can keep them plenty sharp . . . these knives are the opposite of crappy.
As far as lightning fast, the Large is faster than the medium. And with a kinetic(gravity) open, As fast or faster than any of my other EDC knives.
I bought a large one just recently. Only complaint so far is the type of screws they use to attach the pocket clip. I will have to invest in a precision torx screwdriver to get it switched.
How come Amazon has no problem shipping this to my zip code??
This medium Voyager is a very fine knife with a long lasting edge that will resharpen to standard. Compared to the larger, the medium is better suited for anyone with small to medium size hands and fits a back pocket comfortably without damaging the pocket. With a 3" blade it is also more legal to carry than the 4" and, hence, less likely to draw the attention and commentary of local enforcement.
No, they are far from crappy. It is an excellent knife and for 19 bucks they are practically giving them away.
The Voyager shown on Cold Steel's web site costs 3x as much as the Voyager Woot is offering.
I run mine through a two stage electric knife sharpener (also brought from Woot) and it is indescribably sharp. It is tough, strong, and will take extreme, but not carless abuse; it's a knife, not a screwdriver or pry bar. I liked this knife so well I brought its big brother the extra large Voyager with an American Tanto point. So getting back to your question, after a ride around the park. NO it is not a crappy knife. They will make great, inexpensive Christmas gifts, if you can bear to part with them after you get them. Cold Steel also has one of the best warranties in the knife business.
I got my husband the medium plain edge the last time this was on. He has it as his normal pocket knife, and LOVES it. It came so sharp that one must not play around with it: you WILL cut whatever you touch (not slice, not jab -- TOUCH) with the blade or point.
We also own Cold Steel kitchen knives. They are high quality blades, hold an edge, but also are relatively easy to sharpen.
It depends on the use. I prefer smooth. Here is a link that can help you decide.
I bought a couple of these in a previous Woot. The knives are very well made with a good blade and a sturdy, grippy handle. The blade is an odd shape that might limit its utility for some people, but it can be honed and sharpened, when necessary, and it holds up well to a lot of use. Recommended.
In for 3 large serrated. At that price, when the serration start to go, I'll just pull a new one out of the package.
Spyderco knives, please. Cold Steel is meh.
Just a warning to all of you, I've carried the medium straight edge constantly for coming up on four months and can't bring myself to buy much else. I still want a spyderco or benchmade, but I pull this one out of my pocket to compare side by side and I just can't rationalize it until I find that perfect knife. So for the time being, I just bought two more. One likely to gift to a friend, one as a spare. If you're not happy with this knife for the price, frankly I'd be shocked.
Also, I love carrying tip up. This one fits the bill.
Looks like a nice EDC knife. I'm in for one. Just wish they had the combo edge but I went with the 4" serrated edge.
I also like the deep finger grooves so you don't end up cutting your finger as it is less likely to slip from the handle.
IDK how long the pocket clip is, but it looks like it could use one just a bit longer, but I'll have to wait and see once it's in my hands.
Lot's of good reviews on the 'net and Woot is selling this for about 1/2 the price as Amazon.
dbikoff wrote:How come Amazon has no problem shipping this to my zip code??
Because woot's lawyers have a CYA clause in there that they think is beneficial.
Of the three zip codes they will ship to in NY for example - two of them literally share a boarder with NYC... so much for blaming NYC for the issue. Yet I can't have one sent to my house or my office out on the island, or my hunting property far upstate near Canada...
But I can send it to my uncle's business that is literally two blocks from the queens border.
tl;dr - woot's legal team are employees, and think that alienating sales from an entire state of dedicated wooters because they seem to think that draconian laws that govern literally 5% of that state govern the rest of it, literally hundreds of miles away.
Yet, as I've said - several zip codes that are within a stone's throw of said draconian city manage to be okay some how.
/shrug/ I've written them several times on this with no response.
I already received my order.
This is a well-built, serious piece of quality steel.
I opted for the 4" Serrated blade and it snaps open with a solid and authoritative sound.
I showed it to a few of my friends and the first words out of their mouths was "Holy S***!"
After some WD-40 and opening/closing repetition, I can snap open the blade without using the thumb assist.
The grip and ergonomics are great as well. I even put some liquid dish soap on my hand and jabbed the knife at a stack of cardboard and my grip didn't slip.
Everything is nice and tight - no play in the blade at all and the lock back on the spine is rock solid.
I may have to try to bend the clip a bit so it's easier to remove from my pocket when held in place with the clip.
This is a great defensive EDC knife and I hope that the menacing looks and the sound of the blade snapping open will defuse any situation from escalating.
It's the knife equivalent of racking the slide on a Shotgun.
Excellent deal on a quality knife.
This knife retails for $80.00 on the Coldsteel web site.
I should have bought two at this price - one serrated and one straight edge.
Ordered over a week ago and still has not been delivered, very disappointing.

Looking at your tracking, it shows it was delivered to the post office yesterday. You should have it soon.

I have the LG Serrated and blade opening and closing was pretty stiff.
I used some WD-40 and did quite a few open/close repetitions to break it in and now, the knife is smooth as butter and I can deploy the blade with a flick of the wrist without the assistance of the thumb stud.
And yes, it opens "Lightening Fast" now that's broken in.

Thanks moms,
She is correct, and there are plenty of basic guide lines to go off, that INCLUDE veggies. I know that they are not needed, but if I can get something that's good for them, then I have no prob adding it to the mix. This batch is getting close to being gone, when I make the next one I'll be sure to get rid of the broccoli. But I would still like to add something else, if leafy is good then i can use lettuce.
Also, I knew about grapes and raisins, but thanks.

I think if you put 10 Raw Feeders in a room, theyd all have a different recipe for what THEY think is the correct way of feeding! Some also believe in adding vitamins/minerals, but some not......some believe in adding digestive enzymes/probiotics.....some not.
20 years ago when their wasnt much info about raw feeding, and our first GSD was dying, I made up my own recipe blending Pat McKays diet (adding vegetables and fruit) along with Kymythy Smiths diet (adding raw meaty bones). Ive been feeding that way ever since!
I agree that there is no need in a dogs diet for potatoes or grains, but a small percentage of the correct, fresh, pureed vegetables (some veg needs to be blanched or cooked) cant hurt and can actually help as they contain important nutrients.
Below are statements for advocates of adding a small portions of vegetables to the dogs diet. And I think that is probably where where the OP is coming from and gathered info that made sense to HIM.
Dogs have actually eaten vegetables the whole period of their evolution, and that's a long time! As such, vegetables, particularly green leafy vegetables should form part of the domestic dog's healthy diet. Dogs need vegetables because they contain many important health promoting nutrients. The fiber your dog obtains from raw vegetables includes both soluble and insoluble fiber. Vegetables supply many other nutrients. Ian Billinghurst BARF Diet Specifics - Bones, Meat, Offal, Vegetables, Fruits & Other Nutrition Food Products for Pet
Feeding vegetables, fruits, and grains is optional, as dogs do not require carbohydrates in their diet. Even though these foods would make up a tiny percentage of the natural diet, they provide some nutritional value, especially trace minerals and phytonutrients from leafy green vegetables. Mary Straus DogAware.com Articles: Homemade Raw Diets for Dogs
Dr. Knueven endorses a raw diet for dogs: raw meat, bones, fruits, vegetables and organ meats. Author of The Holistic Pet Guide and Stand By Me: A Holistic Handbook For Animal, Their People, and The Lives They Share Together
Dr. Pitcarin: Vegetables are valuable for adding vitamins, minerals and roughage to the diet. Book: Dr. Pitcarins New Complete Guide To Natural Health For Dogs & Cats.
Dr. Karen Becker: Extra fiber from veggies helps out the intestinal function of our sedentary pets and the high antioxidant levels found in vegetables and fruits are beneficial for detoxification processes, rebuilding and healing. Fruits and vegetables provide additional antioxidants to help the body deal with the inevitable toxins our pets encounter. Book: Real Food For Healthy Dogs & Cats
Steve Brown: We believe one of the reasons proper raw diets with vegetables and fruits often correct many different health problems with dogs is that the dog evolved to use natural forms of vitamins, minerals and other micronutrients. Books: Unlocking the Canine Ancestral Diet, See Spot Live Longer.
recovered from a previous thread "
I have it right here -- just an excerpt from this article ---
"although some experts and book authors think broccoli is good for pets, the
isothiocyanate it contains can kill livestock and cause gastrointestinal irritation and goitres in smaller animals, such as dogs. In small amounts broccoli's serious side effects are unpredictable and difficult to catch . But when this crucifer exceeds 25% of the diet , it is clearly fatal .
Sources for this information include US Veterinary USVMA , ASPCA, Humane Societies , and a list of 8 links .
This interferes with the thryroid
both the CVMA and AMVA had broccoli on a list of toxic foods.
There is a liver enzyme which is inhibited which causes damage like cirrhosis --
You do know about grapes and raisins ? and xylitol ?
the dog can benefit from soft fruit , and leafy greens -- run a romaine lettuce and an English cucumber through your blender -- dandelion leaf, nettles, barley grass , wheat grass -- greens through leafy greens not cruciferous vegetables .

Less is more when it comes to feeding dogs. I have found that the more bells and whistles I add, the worse off he is. Keeping it simple has made a big difference. If you want to add something that is truly good for them, research Olewo.
Kibble has alot of things that are not good for dogs....ie. corn.
There are some that believe our dogs need veggies and fruit, I am not one of them. All I was getting at, was you don't have to stress about replacing anything with potato.
My dog has never had them and he has been raw fed right from weaning.
As for supplements, I use Feedsentials, Shemp oil and Sundae Sunday.
|They make kibble with sweet potato. Granted kibble isn't anything to talk too highly about, but I'm just saying. Regardless we are getting off topic, the thread was regarding probiotics.
|I know that they don't ' need ' them... But what can they hurt? As long as it's the right ones?
|Dogs don't need veggies and fruits so there is no need to replace with potato.
Well I've never seen that broccoli was bad for dogs, I have seen that spinach and onion were though. I'll be sure to remove it from the diet and add potato, or something else instead

Hey all, I've been working on my armor for about a day now, And I'm posting my photobucket link.
The armor is a dark purple, and the bodysuit and vest will be black. Obviously, this is a custom mando.
Im running off of the templates from whitenoise productions, but teh only problem is, I cant find a decent shin and foor armor template, anyone got a link or something?

Been just browsing for quite a while and this thread prompted me to register.
This is one of the coolest ideas I've seen in a while. You've convinced me its time to make a Fett.
u can do it with fiberglass too, but that looks cheaper.
u could also spray paint it a metallic green then put scratches in it.
Figured it was about time I posted a picture of my costume, made from a trash can. This was as far as I was able to get before May 19th. I've stopped all work on it since then, but when I have time, I'm planning on picking up where I left off. Take a gander and tell me what you think.
Helmet is a DP '96, repainted, visor added, mesh over the holes, and LEDs (non-working) added to the RF.
Jumpsuit is custom made from pictures I found on TK-409's website, with the help of my amazing mother. I got the material (grey canvas mind you) from walmart for a $1 a yard, 3 yards total.
Vest was made of canvas my mother had in her basement (she has a lot of material). Neck seal (needs to be redone) made from the same material.
Ammo belt was made from a holster belt I bought for $1 from a local thrift store. The pouches were made out of fake leather I got for $.25 from the same thrift store (only enough material to make about 12 pouches; fortunately I only needed 8 ) and sewn by me. The side pouches were also sewn by me, custom pattern, and made from the same canvas the vest is made out of.
Girth belt was made from nylon rope I found at the same thrift store mentioned above, $1 for 100yds. It is sewn on to an adjustable belt I also got from the thrift store, $1. The cod piece is attatched permanently to the belt. This worked out nice, and kept it in place.
Cape was made from an old army shirt I got from the thrift store, $4.
Blaster (WIP) is made from a toy telescope (barrel) and what I believe to be part of a crossbow, (handle) both purchased from the same thrift store. I hope to find some more pieces to finish it off.
Everything purchased from the thrift store wasn't a one time stop. It involved WEEKS of scouring the store, every couple of days in hope of finding something I could use.
Oh, and thanks again Mr. Walmart-trashcan-into-Boba-Fett-armor-Dude.
Let me know what you think.

Looks good. I'm currently forging some from a 5 gallon paint bucket. FYI - If you want to, get the buckets from Lowes...they're slightly thicker and stronger. I have all the chest armor done...moving on to the back tonight.
Rubbermaid brand trash can armor for starwars biggest fan, my 4 yr old son! he walks and breathes sw!!!! He never leaves the house without his light saber. His most recent statement when he is upset with me is...."don't make me turn to the dark side dad!" he loves my jango helmet so i thought i would surprise him this yr with his very own Jango costume....
much thanks for this awesome idea, i was fixing to do fg then came across this thread...WOW, quick and painless!
now need to get the little guy his own :jet pack
Awesome! I wish i had the skill to do that, i do need a cod peice
What a fantastic idea.
all looks fantastic, thanks for doing my vest for me too.
cant wait to get it.
I just purchased some chest armor but without the neck-back- and legs. So i was curious if for FOIOOO how he made the leggings and the back? Any templets i could get a hold of? Oh and also everyone always talks about vests, some make them some buy them, well i need one. So anyone have advice? Thanks.
But of course, what the heck was i thinking. Thanks alot, both of you.
Longtime lurker here! I wasn't planning on posting my Fett development until all my softparts were complete (which is one piece away), but once I discovered this thread it got me super motivated to just try it out. I managed to get the exact 13 gal can, unfortunately no 8 gal so I just grabbed one of the smaller 4 gal bathroom types. So, using the Wizard of Flight's templates, the recommend tin snips and scoring method I went to work. The whole think took only a couple of Spagetti Westerns to complete. (BTW, expect your hands to be in the shape of claws when it's over)
The most difficult part was transferring the templates as they were printed out on standard printer paper, it took many swipes with a thin sharpie and straight edge to get a light transfer through, I was able to then go back over with the sharpie.
The cutting of the shapes with the snips is fairly easy but kills your hands as does the scoring on your fingers. I continued to use the metal straight edge to score at the outlines. Once you see just how perfect the plastic snaps off, you'll want to work quick. However, don't get impatient with this step, really score it down. If you rush you may accidently crack one of the piece. If I'd just slowed down a bit, my cod would have been perfect.
If you place the templates right, you may not need to reshape anything. However, I just used the boiling water techinque and the stuff reforms nicely. I have to give major props to AFettFullofDollars for starting this whole deal and Wizards great templates. I'm a novice craftsman at best and everyone was majorly impressed with what they saw laying on the kitchen table.
Here's my results (the cod is missing the center piece):

Wow, truly inspiring work people. Rat Fett, that turned out perfect good job bud. Ive wanted to take the plunge into this project for years now and I finally see the door opening. Ive also been a sculptor for about 14 years and I love when people take a creative approach like this and the end result is incredible.
Once I get started Ill throw my pics into the fray. Thanks for the inspiration guys (and or girls)
i'm intrigued
Thank u sooooo much for sharing this idea.
I have literally knocked down what i believe to be the hardest part of the costume IMO
thanks to ur trash can idea.
This is a really cool idea!
My question though, is how well does the paint stick to the trashcan plastic?
sand and prime and it'll stick perfectly
hey, this trash can armor looks AWESOME....i kno u have all heard that a thousand times, but really...that is innovative. now i have a question, i am about 5'8" 185 lbs. what size should the armor peices be for my vest? and what else can be made from these trash cans?
Check out wizard of flights Blueprints thread. It has all sizes.Jango_Kast said:
cut them out on paper or cardboard first to test fit.
Use your imagination. You can make anything out of trash cans. It's just a cheaper plastic than normally used sintra.

Traditionally, the name Viennese Waltz refers to a very specific musical genre: The relatively fast Waltzes of the the Romantic era in Vienna. The music is usually written in 6/8 time at a tempo of 29-30 measures per minute, although it is sometimes written as a fast 3/4 at 58-60 measures per minute. It is almost always instrumental, written for orchestras of varying sizes. The most well-known of all composers of Viennese Waltz music is Johann Strauss, responsible for such notorious works as the Blue Danube and Tales From the Vienna Woods.But the music of Johann Strauss and similar composers of the 1800's only acounts for a fraction of the music which is popular these days for dancing the Viennese Waltz. Dancers are enjoying many different styles of fast 6/8 Waltz, much of which is not Viennese at all. The music can be instrumental or vocal, Classical, Celtic, Country or even a "Top 40" hit.

Posted by Jean-Pierre Garbani on June 30, 2010
One of the great revolutions in manufacturing of the past decades is just-in-time inventory management. The basic idea is to provision only what is needed for a certain level of operation and to put in place a number of management functions that will trigger the provisioning of inventory. This is one the key elements that allowed the manufacturing of goods to contain production costs. We have been trying to adapt the concept to IT for years with little success. But a combination of the latest technologies is finally bringing the concept to a working level. IT operations often faces unpredictable workloads or large variations of workloads during peak periods. Typically, the solution is to over-provision infrastructure capacity and use a number of potential corrective measures: load balancing, traffic shaping, fast reconfiguration and provisioning of servers, etc.

text: I did a quick calculation. A fall in a fully rotated 4toe attempt is worth 6.3 (10.3-3.0-1.0), which is higher than an average 3Lutz (6.0). A fall in a fully rotated 3Axel attempt is worth 4.5 (8.5-3.0-1.0), which is higher than an average 3Salchow (4.2). To look at this from another angle, you can kill yourself to cram difficult entry, great speed of entering the jump, perfect air and landing positions, and significant distance covered, into a 3Lutz jump to get a +3 GOE, and this would amount to only 8.1 (6.0+2.1=8.1), which is less than a mediocre 3A (0 GOE) or a 4T with a hand down or stepping out (-2 GOE). To quad or not to quad? That is no longer a question. The risk is small, the reward is large, the calculation is simple. Meanwhile, a Level 3 step sequence (which most top-tier men get) perfectly executed with a +3 GOE will get you 3.3+1.5=4.8, which is about the same as a fall in a fully rotated 3A and far less than a fall in a fully rotated quad. (Of course, the ability to execute excellent step sequences is usually also reflected in higher PCS, but this benefit is hard to quantify and not always proportionally or reliably rewarded.) Is this fair? Is this appropriate? Is this good for the sport? I don't know. I'm not a technical specialist. What I think and how I feel about it is immaterial. Perhaps what matters is how the hundreds, if not thousands, of coaches who train teenagers day in and day out and face the decision of how much time a kid should spend on practicing 3A and 4T.

Some time ago, someone out there spread a nasty rumor about us, that lead many of today's passengers to believe that we don't allow any of those three items. The facts though, contradict the myth.
Knitting needles, carried by grandma, Mrs. Claus or Jeremy down the street are permitted. Plastic, metal, clay, titanium... Whatever... Permitted.
Corkscrews are a little tricky, but also permitted. Let's be clear, corkscrews without knives. We know many corkscrews have the little knife that help cut the metal wrapping on a bottle, those are not allowed, but the little corkscrews with no knife are. Clear? No? Let's try this.
Fancy schmancy corkscrews with knives, no. Cheap corkscrews with no knife, yes.
Lastly, nail clippers. I can't even count the number of times I have heard or seen this... Totally not true. Way back when, 2001, pre-TSA, post 9-11, nail clippers were prohibited, probably an immediate reaction to the events of that day. However, when we came along, we changed the list, allowed nail clippers, but still get accused of being pro-long finger nail. Totally not true.
So to sum up, if you are the kind of person who likes to drink wine, knit and clip your nails, you are free to do all three in flight... So long as you don't have any blades.

I wasn't sure where to post this but it mostly concerns the helmet. I was doing research in the movies on how to damage my helmet. I'm shooting for a ROTJ:SE costume. So ROTJ everything but ESB bucket. Here is the thing, there is only ONE shot in all of ROTJ SE that has the ESB bucket and that is right after Boussh/Leia comes in with Chewie, all others are original ROTJ helmets. Rather inconsistent to cuz the helmet changes back like nothing ever happened.
It turns out however that the ESB costume is not the first screen used costume. It is #2 except for the jet pack. The reason I say this is Boba is wearing a mostly ROTJ style costume in ANH:SE when Han is talking to Jabba. That scene was orginally shot in 1977 for Star Wars but was cut in post-prod making that Fett costume the first before ESB.
I've included the best shot of Boba Fett from that scene. The arrows point everything out and it's all labeled according to the movie we most attribute the styles to.
It would appear that the ROTJ helm, gauntlets, cape, ammo belt, and EE-3 were the first costume parts to ever be used for the screen (even though they weren't seen until 1997).

Cliff Notes:
Fewer than half of eligible teens 19 or younger have driver's licenses, down from almost two-thirds in 1998.
Annual vehicle miles driven by Americans ages 16 to 34 have dropped 23% from 2001 to 2009.
Biking and walking as alternative forms of transportation have increased by 24% and 16%, respectively, among the same age group.

MEDFORD - The Tufts men's lacrosse team built a 10-4 lead early in the fourth quarter and then withstood a furious Cortland comeback for a 10-9 victory in the NCAA Div. III Quarterfinals on a raw Wednesday afternoon at Bello Field.
The Jumbos (17-2), defending their 2010 national championship, advance to the NCAA Semi-finals and will play at RIT (19-0) on Sunday. The game time has not been announced. The winner will advance to the NCAA Final in Baltimore on May 29. Cortland, which had its season ended by a 10-9 loss to Tufts for the second straight year, finished at 16-3.
The visiting Red Dragons scored the first two goals and led 2-0 after one quarter. Junior Mike Tota (Webster, NY) and senior Jay DeStefano (Huntington, NY) had the tallies. The Cortland defense did not allow a Tufts shot on goal in the first.
However, the Jumbos outscored Cortland 6-1 in the second quarter including three goals by senior Ryan Molloy (Setauket, NY). He tied the score at 3-3 with a behind-the-back goal on a man-up situation at the 8:07 mark. Junior Geordie Schafer (Rancho Santa Fe, CA) gave Tufts the lead for good at 4-3 with 4:33 on the clock. The Jumbos led 6-3 heading into halftime.
Tufts continued to add to the margin, with back-to-back goals by junior Kevin McCormick (Laytonsville, MD) putting the hosts up 10-4 at 14:36 of the fourth quarter. However, the momentum soon turned dramatically in Cortland's favor.
Senior Chris DeLuca (Sayville, NY) scored three consecutive goals, including two off assists from senior Neal Hopps (Akwesasne, NY) to make it a 10-7 game with 7:38 on the clock. DiStefano then netted two straight goals and all of a sudden the Red Dragons were down one, 10-9, with 1:23 to go.
Cortland's Justin Battino (Plainview, NY) won the ensuing face-off, and the Red Dragons worked through a hard ride by the Jumbos to get the ball into the box and call time-out with 42 seconds remaining. Cortland worked the ball around trying to get a good shot, but couldn't come up with much and an attempt by Total was saved routinely by Jumbo freshman Patton Watkins will less than 10 seconds remaining. Watkins hurled the ball out of the Tufts end and the clock expired.
Watkins, seventh in the nation with a .635 save percentage entering the game, finished with 15 saves including six in the second quarter. Molloy led Tufts with three goals and added an assist, while McCormick posted two goals with two assists and senior D.J. Hessler (Monkton, MD) had four assists. Senior Matt Witko (Chappaqua, NY) and junior Sean Kirwan (Boonton Township, NJ) both scored twice. Senior Alec Bialosky (Moreland Hills, OH) led Tufts with five ground balls, and junior Nick Rhoads (McLean, VA) won 13 face-offs.
DeLuca and DiStefano led Cortland with three goals and an assist each. Tota added two tallies. DeLuca won nine face-offs, helping him accumulate a game-high seven ground balls. DiStefano picked up four. Freshman goalie Scott Tota (Webster, NY) made seven saves before he was pulled after 45:24 of action. Sophomore Mike Kaminski (Sayville, NY) did not allow a goal while stopping one shot in 14:36 of playing time.
Cortland finished with a 41-39 advantage in shots, and also won the ground ball battle 33-24.

TaylorMade Green Bay Pro-Am Provides Unique Golf Opportunity
By: Ryan Hartwig (@RyanHartwig)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - TaylorMade CEO and President Mark King - a UW-Green Bay alumnus - will once again return to his hometown for the annual TaylorMade-adidas Green Bay Pro-Am, set for Monday, Aug. 27 at Green Bay Country Club. In addition to bringing a top-notch golf event to the area, King's creativity and generosity also provide the opportunity to bid on unique golf experiences in the live auction.
Last year's auction featured a Premier Golf Trip for four people to the award-winning, six-course Reynolds Plantation in Greensboro, Ga. The package included brand new sets of clubs and bags following a professional fitting at the TaylorMade Kingdom, as well as a round of golf with six-time major champion Sir Nick Faldo just days after he finished commentating The Masters on television.
The top bidders for the auction package were Ken Metzler and Brian Mannering of LaForce, Inc., who invited clients Mike Johnson (IEI General Contractors, Inc.) and Pete Smits (Howard Immel, Inc.) along for the trip.
"It just sounded like a great experience," Mannering said. "I had never been down to Reynolds Plantation. They have unbelievable accommodations and courses, and to be able to take some great clients of ours, it just seemed like something they would never forget."

Prior to their round with Faldo, the foursome went through an extensive, three and a half hour club fitting with the professional fitters at the TaylorMade Kingdom to find the clubs that were right for each golfer.
"You felt like a king out there, you truly did," Mannering said. "It was kind of surreal. It was a fantastic facility. You didn't get tired because you were just amped up from everything that was going on and the excitement of knowing that you were choosing not just the clubs you wanted but the clubs you hit best."
As exciting as it was to receive the new sets of TaylorMade clubs and bags, the group agreed that playing with Faldo was the highlight of the trip.
"He told jokes, told funny stories and answered any question we would ask him," Johnson said. "I don't know how to describe it. It's better than anything I've done before."
This year's live auction will include a similar golf trip with details to be announced at the event. All money raised at the TaylorMade-adidas Green Bay Pro-Am goes to the Phoenix Fund for Green Bay student-athlete scholarships - something the group says adds incentive to bid.
"That's really what it's all about - supporting Green Bay and their athletic department," Smits said. "It's a win-win, it really is. People can get a great trip and a great experience and help the programs."
Mannering agreed.
"You should bid on it," Mannering said. "It's a great organization to support, and certainly that's the big win, but you won't be disappointed. You just will not be disappointed with your experience. We could have spent a lot more money and we'd have the exact same feeling that we have today."
King, a 1981 graduate of UW-Green Bay and former Phoenix golfer, has helped transform TaylorMade-adidas into one of the largest golf manufacturers in the world. Under King's leadership, the company's sales have risen from $300 million in 1999 to over $1.2 billion in 2011.
Pro-Am Format: Teams of three will be paired with one of top Midwest PGA golf professionals for a true pro-am experience. The threesomes will compete for the event championship and prizes, including TaylorMade drivers, adidas footwear and TaylorMade golf bags. The pros will compete for a $5,000 cash purse.
The event costs $400 per person or $1,200 per threesome, which includes golf and cart fees, lunch, hors d'oeuvres reception, a program and a live auction. Every golfer will receive a tee package including an Ashworth shirt, a TaylorMade-adidas golf hat and a dozen Penta T-P tour golf balls.
