I am about to install 10.04 (from bare metal to replace 9.04) and I want to set it up so that I can shh into the machine, but only from other machines on my local network. (I.e., I want to reject all ssh attempts from other than 192.168.1 set of IPs.) How do I do that correctly on 10.04?

Ask Ubuntu is a question and answer site for Ubuntu users and developers. It's 100% free.
You have to edit the two configuration files
In both cases you could replace
In addition to using hosts.allow and hosts.deny, you can use firewalls. "ufw" is installed by default in Ubuntu. You enable it with
and then limit the ssh connectivity with `
That should do it. I believe the FireStarter application will allow a GUI configuration of ufw as well.

Dirk Erik Schulz's Videogame and Breakfast Cereal Art is Mind-Bendingly Rad
If John K and Peter Bagge tried to make cartoons together, they'd end up with characters who look approximately like the ones in the work of Dirk Erik Schulz. The Germany-based artist obviously harbors an intense love of Mario, but he also draws Sega's Sonic and Tails as you would imagine they might appear in a wrestling competition in a cinematic depiction of an acid trip, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas style.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Just finished a tourney and placed in the top ten. But the award was less than the entry fee!!! Had a dream last night about poking the director in the chest and I was mad as hell. Also what about the players who dont have the skill to go pro and wanna earn some cash once in a while instead of plastic.
Views: 717
In some ways I think disc golf has created that first group, by addicting them to payouts.
You could be right at about the untapped pool of players---but it's tough to step up and run an event that may dismiss a majority of current tournament players, in hopes of bringing in others. Much safer commiting efforts and resources to an established formula.
(Though I've been to a few trophy-only events, and they worked, at least on a limited basis).
Totally agree with you Bruce.
It's unfortunate that disc golf is still in the peewee leagues of "professional" sports.
This can be a good thing and bad.
Clubs usually run tournaments, most likely for FREE.
Volunteers are everywhere - from beginning to end.
Sometimes cities charge the use of the park, course, etc.... since you 'own' for the given weekend....
Food for free? Players Packs,.... takes sponsors and so on.
There are costs everywhere. Some cities want percentages.....
Personally don't believe in weak payouts, but in your situation, don't know all the specifics.
There is a price on everything.
Some tournaments are going to be better than others, payouts, course and competition.
Disc golf is still in the early stage of sport.
Until we as a whole realize this, nothing is going to change.
As a disc golf business, not my full time job, get hit usually everyday for wanna sponsor me or my tournament....
hmmm here is your answer:
until the numbers arrive, millions play disc golf, change is very slow.
I'd say, instead of being upset, turn that anger into a positive and see what you can do to help out the growth....
get more to play, make sponsorship worthwhile to the sponsor.
8 time Tournament Director, with Worlds TD experience.... founder discplayersports.
Nice to hear from someone in the DG Business. Valid points made. Thanks Disc Player Sports.
Just Play Open !!! :D
One way to make the transition is to design tournaments so that the base entry fee covers the sanctioning, insurance, trophies, player packs and other costs. This might result in a $15 or $20 entry fee. Then offer the payout game as an optional add-on for $15 or $20 more. My brother Jon and his team have been doing this with the Illinois Open Series for about 8 or 9 years. 2 to 10% of the amateurs will opt out of the payouts if the payouts are reasonably good. We never really experimented with crappy "100%" PDGA payouts. We always did 140% or more amateur value.
In 2013 the Illinois Open Series might experiment with a format that is officially trophy-and-player-pack only, with no merch payouts for ams. That format might include an unofficial sidegame for the ams that is more fair and more fun than the PDGA-style merch payout.

Drama, Suspense/Thriller
Work has become an obsession for Detective Tom Adkins since the disappearance of his ten-year-old son, Tommy Jr. When an early morning phone call leads him to the mangled remains of a young boy who was brutally murdered 50 years ago, Adkins takes on the case in hopes of finding absolution. His investigation leads him to a man who lived in 1958 named Matthew Wakefield and his innocent son, John. The striking similarities in the cases pushes Adkins' obsession over the top. Barely holding onto his sanity and bound by redemption, Adkins unravels the unspeakable truth behind what happened to his son.

|A delicious salad with shrimp, avocado, red bell pepper, and celery.
And just for the fun of it, here's the original photo of this salad from back in 2007!
Shrimp, Avocado and Red Pepper Salad
(About 4 servings, recipe created by Kalyn)
1 lb frozen cooked shrimp, (50-70 per pound)
(see instructions after the recipe if using raw shrimp)
1 cup celery, diced in 1/2 inch pieces
1 cup red bell pepper, diced in 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 cup sliced green onion
2 avocados, diced in 1/2 inch pieces
1 T fresh lemon juice, to toss with avocado
1/2 tsp. salt for avocado (optional)
Dressing Ingredients:
5 T mayo or light mayo (I usually use a combination of light and regular mayo.I don't like fat free mayo which often has added sugar.)
2 T reserved shrimp juice from thawing shrimp
1/2 tsp. Ancho chili powder (I used Penzeys, other types of chile powder could be substituted)
1 tsp. dill weed
Cut the red bell pepper and celery into 1/2 inch pieces and slice the green onions. Combine mayo, 2 T shrimp juice, chile powder and dill weed with whisk and set aside.
Dice avocado into 1/2 inch square pieces. Toss with lemon juice and salt and place in salad bowl. Add the diced red pepper, celery, and green onion and gently combine.
Place shrimp in separate bowl, add mixed salad dressing, and stir to coat all shrimp with dressing. Add shrimp and dressing to bowl with shrimp mixture, and gently combine. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper if desired and serve immediately.
Instructions for raw shrimp:
Shell and deveine shrimp. Put 1 1/2 cup water in saucepan, add 1 bay leaf, 1 tsp. peppercorns, and several slices lemon. Bring to a boil, then add shrimp and turn off heat immediately. Let shrimp poach until opaque, less than five minutes. Remove shrimp and cool. (This method will not give you the shrimp juice which adds flavor to the dressing. Knorr makes shrimp bouillon, which could be used, or bottled clam juice would be a good substitute. You could also boil the shrimp shells and then reduce the liquid, which is a bit more labor intensive.)
South Beach Suggestions:
Everything in this salad is a good choice for all phases of the South Beach Diet, or any type of low-glycemic eating plan. The salad has mayo and avocado, which both contain "good fats" but I would eat foods that are less high in fat for my other meals that day, especially for phase one.
Nutritional Information?
I chose the South Beach Diet to manage my weight partly so I wouldn't have to count calories, carbs, points, or fat grams, but if you want nutritional information for a recipe, I recommend entering the recipe into Calorie Count, which will calculate it for you.

Lewis Hamilton has refuted suggestions by his current team boss that he is regretting his decision to sign with Mercedes...
Lewis Hamilton has refuted suggestions by his current team boss that he is regretting his decision to sign with Mercedes.
A long-time protégé of McLaren and then a F1 driver with the team for six years, Hamilton is leaving Woking at the end of this season to head to Brackley in a three-year deal.
However, since announcing the swap, Mercedes have not scored a single World Championship point and languish down in fifth place in the Constructors' Championship.
This prompted McLaren team boss Martin Whitmarsh to say he thinks Hamilton "on occasions" regrets the decision to change teams.
The Brit, though, says this is not true.
"I was a little bit surprised to hear that," Hamilton said when asked about Whitmarsh's comments. "It's clearly not the case.
"But I've got a great team and I've been with them a long time.
"I'm sure everyone has emotions within the team, but I'm still here giving 100 percent to them for the last two races.
"Of course it's quite emotional for me but I'm very, very happy with my decision."
Joined by the title contenders, Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso, for Thursday's press conference in Austin, Hamilton was asked for his thoughts on missing out.
"It is what it is. I'm happy just to be here fighting in the last two races for my team," the 2008 World Champ said.
"I just want to do the best job. We can still fight them, even though we are not fighting for the Championship.
As for the Championship duo, the 27-year-old reckons they are dealing with the pressure remarkably well.
"It's amazing to see how much focus they have considering how much pressure is on - they are both World Champions and they both handle it without a problem."

We are located at the Metro Station KITAI GOROD (КИТАИ-ГОРОД), on the Orange and Purple line. Take the 'MAROSEYKA' (МАРОСЕЙКА) street exit.
WALKING DIRECTIONS from the Metro KITAI GOROD
At the metro station Kitai Gorod platform between the trains, look for the sign that says 'Maroseyka'' (МАРОСЕЙКА). The sign is in the middle of the platform hanging from the ceiling and is quite small. Follow this sign firstly exiting the platform by taking the STAIRS, and then the escalator.

Nice product and quality
I loved these, but it just did not fit my window space...wish they had--they look very nice! Would have been perfect if they had fit the length of my window space. I might have adjusted them...but I did not know how.Read More
Love love love these blinds
Love these and they look great, very easy to put it up- It didn't take a rocket scientist! The only issue I had was the bamboo wand fell off the metal, but nothing a little Gorilla glue couldn't fix! THEY ARE PERFECT AND I LOVE THEM AND THEY LOOK GREAT! alot of people complained in their reviews but I have none!Read More
Cross between 5 &1 star
OMG ... While they look Fab.. Thank goodness I am an Engineer, that is what is takes to hang these units .. here is a hint .. D panel slides 1st ..1/2 way on rear track ( Rear is closest to window frame ) .. then add C panel 1/2 way .. now push D and C so C on track 1/2 mway ... now add B panel to 1/2 on track .. add A Look at pickups at top of panel where white wheel are . Also you may want to tear out locking hanger to track and install bolts and wing nuts. They do look Fab though.Read More
Sliding Bamboo Panels
This is our second set of these sliding bamboo blinds. The other set lasted 8-years! They are durable and add a whole new dimension to our kitchen walk out. They are always a conversation piece when people come over that have never visited our house. They are not 100% private; in the evening you can see shadow and bodies moving when it is dark outside and lights are on inside.Read More
Almost perfect, except...
I love the lock of these shades and they are excellent in every way EXCEPT the site description left out the fact that the stationary panel is on the left and the panels move left to right. Since I need the opposite, it is going to take some adjustment to get the panels to where I need them.Read More
Love the look! But hard to install!!!
I love the look of these blinds, but they were very hard to put up, the instructions were not great. A plastic piece actually broke while trying to get them up, my husband was able to make it work though. Other than that I am pretty happy with them..Read More
Mahogany Bamboo booo
I bought this product because in the picture it looks beautiful. The first shipment was damaged so I complained and received the second one promptly. Great overstock service, but the second product also had some scratches on them but I was not going to return the second one as well. So my husband started to put up the bamboo screen blinds and notice the cheap plastic hardware which is definitively not going to last very long and then when the whole thing was put together the panels do not slide very smoothly. Also one panel is longer then the rest of the three panels. It looks very cheap and fragile. Very very disappointed.:(Read More
Instruction "guy" should be fired!
Shipping was fast! Directions to assemble this are horrible!!! It's worth figuring out though because it's very nice. Is a bit see through.Read More
Wrong order BUT....
I ordered the dark Mahogany, I received the natural so I had to return it. The Mahogany is out of stock so I ordered these elsewhere. I'm posting due to people stating the instructions are confusing and useless. After my new shipment of the exact type of blinds I took a picture of the instructions I received that will show you how to REVERSE the blinds to open the other direction. Unsure if these instructions are the same, I hope it helps.Read More
Questions & Answers
It is packaged like regular blinds in the store, and then packaged in a shipping box. It isn't an oversize box, easier enough to handle by one person.
Thank you for your question. The item is packaged as the previous customer stated. the shipping box dimensions are Height: 5 inches Width: 7 inches Length: 48 inches.
The item itself comes as if you purchased off the shelf, in a clear, see through plastic box. This box is then slid inside a cardboard box. I did receive these blinds by accident (wrong color) and I found packing to be poor. What happens is the fragile plastic clear box shifts back and forth inside the cardboard shipping box which results in cracking of both boxes and possible damage. When you receive it, carefully check the ends so to make sure nothing was broken.
what is the length of the track bar and height of each panel?
The measurement are 72"Width x 84"Length. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.
Panels for me did vary a tad bit in length. I recommend taking each panel and draping them over a stair banister for a day or two or I opened a few inside doors, draping a panel over each. Why? To allow them to settle a bit more. Based on reviews, people say that the panels were different lengths after they hung and settled. Now, I have only one that is approximately 1" longer than the others. It is not noticeable for us.
How wide are the panels? Do they attach with Velcro?
The panels are roughly 21 1/2" wide each and the set comes with four, thus the entire width is 84". These panels are attached with a track system that is included with this item.
Each panel is approximately 21 1/2". I have these and that is what mine measure.
Can these be mounted to a ceiling?
These are not designed to be ceiling-mounted.
I disagree. I'm staring at mine right now and can see no possible way that you can flip the bracket over. There are grooves that the panels are placed into to hang, then on top, there are places to slide your bracket in. Flipping it will result in your blind having to flip over the bracket as well and then they won't move.
My patio door space measures 54" wide & 78" long. Can this product to shorten to fit my space?
The track should not be shortened.
It is not made to shorten whatsoever. Being handy around the house, I'm sure a hand saw np made to cut fine metal would work, brackets moved over and blinds still installed the same just know that the panels will need to be adjusted to roam freely or else you won't be able to push them far enough to open them.
Can the stationery panel be reversed so it stays to the right side. My kitchen slider slides left to right ... so I need the panels to stack to the right?
Yes, you can reverse them to be either left or right.
The instructions are to reverse them however, they simply make the deepest set inside panel move first. Problem is, reversing them AC cording to the instructions will not accommodate a handle that sticks out. So you will have a stationary screw that goes into the grooves. Place one in the front first groove (faces you) far left and secure. The other is far back groove, far right (facing it) Now your wides set panel will move over a handle and not interfere. Also, the wand can be moved by unscrewing and switching it out with the proper wand attachment. Just study it, it will come to you.
Can the width of the track bar be shortened in order to fit a 70
It shouldn't be shortened.
The track bar will hang 3 1/2" above your door so it won't interfere with your 70" I don't believe.
Do these roll up as well?
No, this item cannot be rolled up.
Are they energy efficient and can they be shortened???
Yes, they are energy efficient, but they cannot be shortened.
These are reversible, they can be used for each side.
Do the panels stack to one side? If so, which side?
The stationary panel is on the left and the panels move left to right. So they can be stacked on either side.
Do the movable panels all move to the left and stack on the left? (four panels stacked upon each other on the left side of the door looking out?)
The stationary panel is on the left, and the panels move from left to right.

Like all memoirs, The Narrative Life of Frederick Douglass is written in hindsight. It is a reflection on the past and no mere imagining of the mind. Douglass' does have a point of view, which is irrefutable, but a reader cannot help but feel that he does his utmost to write with clarity and fairness. He attempts, if not succeeds, to create a somewhat objective window into the life of a particularly lucky and contemplative slave: himself. For the purposes of this particular examination, his narrative contains two main groups of writing, and as such two collections of sound. One of which concerns the tensions Douglass found himself surrounded by during his tenure as a slave. The latter deals with moments of peace, reflection, and simplicity. By taking a period of violence in comparison with one relative peace, I hope to examine the dynamics of sounds, circumstances, and their meaning to Douglass.
As any reader peruses Douglass' descriptions of his slave life, certain characteristics crop up time and time again. Some of these generally ubiquitous aspects fall under the heading of brutal, violent, cold, isolated, fearful, ignorant, and alone. But most hurtful of all are the occurrences that highlight the sheer powerless nature of the slaves as humans. One of the most striking and despicable examples that Douglass highlights with a tone of cold reality is found on page 14 when Mr. Gore kills Demby the slave without a second thought. After Demby stumbles to a near creek to escape the harsh crack of the whip on his fleshy back, Mr. Gore, the overseer, follows him and announces that "he would give him three calls, and that, if he did not come out at the third call, he would should him. The first call was given. Demby made no response, but stood his ground. The second and third calls were given with the same result. Mr. Gore then, without consultation or deliberation with any one, not even giving Demby an additional call, raised his musket to his face, taking deadly aim at his poor victim, and in an instant poor Demby was no more" (Douglass 14). This event can be examined through a variety of lenses, but let us turn our heads towards the juxtaposition of anticipatory silence punctured by extremely violent sounds. At the beginning of this section, a short but horrendous pattern took center stage. The sequence of outright wailing and pleading by Demby to be spared the whipping would be cut through by the vicious snap of the supersonic whip upon his soft flesh, only to be followed by screams distraught pain. This would repeat only a few times. Then a scuffling of feet would ensue only to be followed by the thump of sprinting. Afterwards an explosion of splashing would be coupled with a moan of relief as the cool water of the stream cascades down Demby's burning whip marks. But alas, now that the spurt of resistance is over, a deathly silence falls over the group as Mr. Gore confidently approaches the stream. He tells Demby, in a low a malicious whisper, he has until the count of three to obey. Demby is now confronted with an ultimatum: life and slavery, or death and freedom. The contemplative and tense silence is broken only by Mr. Gore's count of three. Finally, after an eternity, the stillness is shattered by the seismic crack of the gunshot and the splash of Demby's body as he crumples. After that, silence again.
In contrast to the extremity of both silence and jarring noises, when Douglass begins working as a freeman near the end of his narrative, the sounds change entirely. Instead of combat between stillness and conglomerations of violent sounds, he finds solace in "stowing a sloop with a load of oil. It was new, dirty, and hard work for me; but I went at it with a glad heart and a willing hand. I was now my own master" (68). This moment to me is one of the most beautiful reflections within the entirety of this book. I can hear his grunts and the drop of oil canisters onto the boat. Hear the gangplank creaking as Douglass slowly advances back and forth across it. His breathing mixes with the stirring of the water below as it shifts the boat ever so slightly. Although I can't hear it, I can see him smile. And intrinsically important to the simple peace of this moment is the cacophony of sounds from all around him. The ship is alive with action and preparations but absent of a few very important sounds. There is no whip slicing through the air. There is no holler of pain and no exclamations towards god for mercy. There is no silence, but there is peace in the shift of the ship and efforts of the workers freely performing their duties.
Whilst both scenes deal with manual labor these two excerpts differ hugely in the corresponding moods they create. One portrays violent and hateful noise cutting through the soft layer of silence encompassing fieldwork while the other features dull thrum of vibrations and activity with little excitement and much continuity. Sound occurs due to vibrations, but so does tension. In the first example, overt tension between the silences and the jolting sounds creates an atmosphere of brutality and hate. In the latter example, tension disappears. As the work gets done, very little silence slips in, but neither do startling noises violently cut through the air.

Report: Senator Carpenter flipped position on mining bill; caused bill to fail
MADISON- According to sources, Republicans and labor unions expected the mining bill set for northern Wisconsin to pass Tuesday, but state Sen. Tim Carpenter changed his vote at the last second.
As a result of the bill failing 17-16, Gogebic Taconite's president says the Wisconsin Senate's rejection of mining reforms sends a clear message and that they will put out of Wisconsin.
Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald joined Charlie Sykes on Wednesday to talk about his disappointment surrounding the bill's failure. "There was some real indications that one of these Democrats was going to vote with us and move this bill forward." The company involved in the case has now pulled out.
John Mercure of Wisconsin's Afternoon News has an inside scoop on the story. John said multiple sources told him that there were intense negotiations between the mining company, Democrats and Republicans went on during this legislation.
According to John, here is the inside scoop on what happened. He spoke to multiple sources that said there were very close negotiations between the mining company, Republicans and Democrats trying to make this happen bill happen.
Earlier this week several Senate Democrats, including Milwaukeeans state Sen. Spencer Coggs and Tim Carpenter, indicated they were considering vote for the mining measure. Senator Carpenter even spoke to one of John's sources about how his dad worked for 35 years at Falk, a company that makes mining machinery. John heard that Carpenter felt an almost a hereditary obligation to vote for the mine
On Monday night five labor unions and Gogebic Taconite's thought they saw an opening. According to sources, Senator Carpenter was indicating that he might be willing to vote for the mine and its thousands of jobs. But Carpenter apparently voiced concern about how a mine up near Lake Superior would benefit his constituents in Milwaukee. Carpenter, John's told, expressed an interest in having a fully funded mining and manufacturing program developed in inner city Milwaukee -- specifically he wanted the program to train high school students in his district for future mining and manufacturing jobs. And Carpenter was apparently insistent that the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce administer the program. Why the Hispanic chamber? It turns out that Senator Carpenter's Senate District has the largest population of Hispanics of any of the state's 33 Senate districts.
So the training initiative was inserted into the bill. And sources say that in exchange for the initiative, Carpenter committed to voting for the bill. The unions are happy, Republicans are relieved, and fellow Democratic Senators don't yet know anything about his decision, as of Monday night.
On Tuesday, Republican Senate leadership decided to call the vote, believing they have the numbers for passage. Then in the afternoon, the Democrats caucus, John was told by an inside source, they felt good about the fact that they had all their members and Republican Dale Schultz set to vote against the bill. They believed defeat of the governor's mining bill was at hand. At that point, Carpenter spoke up and indicated he might bolt, and vote for the measure. As you can imagine, chaos emerged.
About 5 p.m the vote was called. Nervously, Democrats and Republicans filed into the chamber. Both sides though they had the votes to win. Both sides were also very nervous. State Sen. Tim Carpenter is the first one in the roll call. All eyes were on him as the roll was called. Almost immediately there was confusion. John reports there was a murmur and he looked confused. Senate President Mike Ellis asked Carpenter if that was how he intended to vote and he abruptly changed his vote and cast the vote that would ultimately defeat the measure.
Republicans were stunned. The labor unions that had negotiated the Milwaukee based training deal were angry -- and confused. One union guy John spoke with Wednesday said he feels that Carpenter betrayed them. 95% of the thousands of jobs created would have been family supporting union jobs.
John asked his source what the chances are that the company would reconsider their decision to abandon Wisconsin. According to the source, "We have danced and danced with Wisconsin politicians. We don't like to dance and we are now done dancing in Wisconsin. Forever."
John called Sen. Carpenter, but no response.
The mining company has declined further comment besides their statement.

Very excited about this one, partially due to Zack Snyder directing and partially due to the fact that Animal Logic's next film after Guardians is set to be the adaptation of Jeff Smith's Bone comic. That's my all-time favorite comic book and one that I could translate really well to the big screen.

When to Call the Doctor: Fever, Nausea, Diarrhea, Colds, and Coughs
Fever is a routine symptom in infants and children. It is a normal immune response to an infection to generate an elevated body temperature and make the body inhospitable. That doesn't mean that the fever should be ignored, but if the child is otherwise doing well, treating the fever with over-the-counter (OTC) medicines such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen may be all that is needed.

Two struggling young high school football offenses met Friday night when Walter Johnson High School visited Col. Zadok Magruder. Both continued to struggle, and then some.
On the strength of two first-half safeties and some staunch defense, Magruder defeated the Wildcats, 4-2.
"We left a lot points on the field," Magruder coach Kevin Bernot said. "We made a lot of mental mistakes, fumbles, interceptions. That's stuff we've got to correct."
The Wildcats (1-4) actually put together the game's best drive in the final 1:42, going from their own 29 down to the Magruder 19, but Mark Murtha's 36-yard field goal attempt with 21 seconds left was short.
"Probably a little outside his range," Wildcats coach Jon Kadi said.
Leading 4-0 midway through the fourth quarter and facing fourth and 19 from the 1-yard line, the Colonels (1-4) gave up the safety in exchange for the free kick from the 20.
It paid off as Walter Johnson drove to the 16 before Murtha missed from 33 yards out.
In addition to the missed kicks, twice in the second half the Wildcats drove inside the Colonels 10 and came away without points.
"We're young. We have to get better. We have to execute when we have the opportunity," Kadi said. "We've got eight or nine new starters on offense, 17 new starters across the board. These kids haven't played a whole lot of football."
The Wildcats were whistled for 10 penalties, including a holding penalty that nullified a 30-yard touchdown run by Greg Battle in the third quarter.
Walter Johnson still managed to get a first down and goal on the 7-yard line. The drive ended, thanks to consecutive penalties, on an incomplete pass on fourth and goal at the 16.
Late in the third quarter the Wildcats recovered a Bryan Juarez fumble at the 21. An 11-yard pass from Victor Riverio to Jahziel Biscoe made it first and goal from the 9, but they couldn't score.
In the first half, Magruder showed some offense, twice driving inside the Wildcat 30 before losing fumbles.
After intermission however, the Colonels didn't manage a first down.
"Our (offensive) line needs to power off the ball," Bernot said. "We've got to get that aggressive mentality. We've got good size on our line, we've just got to get them to fire off and move people around."
The Wildcats started their first possession on the 29 and on third and 29 from the 10, Riverio fumbled and a Walter Johnson player fell on the ball in the end zone for a safety.
Walter Johnson managed only one first down in the first half and that came on a fake punt.
In the second quarter, Riverio dropped back into his own end zone and completed a pass, but a holding penalty was called in the end zone. At first the officials didn't signal for a safety, as per the rule.
"I had to call a timeout because the refs called hold and they weren't going to call the safety," Bernot said. "Then they finally called the safety, but I didn't get my timeout back."
