Possible Crew for 2010
Dear Sir,
My name is Mark. You seem to have quite an amazing sailing adventure ahead of you. I'm replying to your search for crew with keen interest. I am interested in learning more about your circumnavigation and yourself and your family.
I'm a Canadian, 31 year old male who made it my goal last year (2009) to be the best sailor possible. I began the year (in 2009) in St. Thomas (US Virgin Islands) where I lived on and raced a J27 sailboat for over 3 months - whereby I daily maintained her and learned all crew positions during this time (from skipper to foredeck, grinder & everything in between), racing (primarily at foredeck) in the Rolex and BVI Spring Regattas to name a couple. After my time in the USVIs, I sailed as crew (with a captain and one other crew member) on a Leopard 46 Catamaran from the Caribbean to Turkey. I then spent my summer in Ireland as crew racing a Beneteau 31.7 out of Dublin on the weekends. So my sailing experience has all been very recent, but I've seemed to have jumped into deep waters quite suddenly! As an experienced crew member with various skippers / captains, I'm polite, respectful, very good cook, tidy and will accommodate to my skipper's/captain's needs on a moment's notice.
I don't have any problems providing you with references from my skippers/captains or current/previous employers regarding my skills and character. I'm not very much of a 'careerist' in the modern sense. I find there to be too many challenges and opportunities for new adventures (and improvements) in my life. Academically, I've completed graduate and post-graduate degrees in the field of Geography / GIS in 2004. (I am a Geographer at heart and my desire to explore and travel has come to fruition these past few years. If you need anybody to read/understand/prepare you for the upcoming geography of a new area, I unquestioningly take great enthusiasm in this).
Back to academics.. priorly I studied Chemical-Environmental Engineering (late 1990s). My work experience is across a broad spectrum - from university teaching (seminar leader), to research (toxicology, biology and health sciences), social work (2 years at a local shelter in Canada), farm work (tractor operation, harvesting), construction and surveying/engineering to name a few examples. Currently, I'm working for a logistics company here in Ontario, Canada and have been primarily studying commercial / contract law outside of working hours.
If you would like to learn a bit more about me, I also have a couchsurfing page online with feedback from various friends and travelers who have met me throughout the past few years. I can send you this page via email, if desired.
I am leaving back to St Thomas (USVIs) in just over a week to race again this year (February to mid April) with open possibilities thereafter.
Do you have much sailing experience? Offshore? How would you best describe your personality? I have a few more questions, but I'll leave it at this for now. I think I've written more than necessary for a first message.
Hi, sounds like an interesting trip you have planned. American female currently living in Switzerland and thinking about taking the end of 2010 to 2011 off. I have been racing and cruising since I was a young kid, now Im a 42 yr old kid ;-) I have my CMAS S* diving certification and I speak some French and Italian. If you are still considering crew members let me know.cek03802(at)gmail.com
I am interested in being a crew member on your voyage. I am a 22 year old male from America. I have some sailing experience, including an offshore delivery from Florida to Virginia. I also know some first aid and am proficient in Chinese. If you would like to contact me, my email address is trevor.piersol at gmail dot com. Hope to hear from you and have a great voyage!
Uhmm I don't have any sailing exp. nor do I cook. But I like to eat. I get sick really easy so if there is going to be any rough weather you would have to go back to the dock untill the seas were calm. I can't swim but my dad use to take me out and we would try and run down seals in the bay I live on. I smoke 2 packs a day and I don't really like to take a bath much if thats ok. I love to take charge and yell out orders. I know you are going to need me because the last girl I dated said I would do very well to be out on a boat in the ocean. Oh I do have a few bucks but if you could help me just a bit to get some beers here and there that would be great. I am good for it. Oh one more thing I go for days without ever saying a word. Well cheers mate and I look forward to out date just let me know when you can send me the airfare and I will be there.
Just joking Good luck on your crew search..... Sounds like you guys are going to have a good time with circum....
Interested in starting conversation either for this leg or some future one. Male, 62, healthy and fit, 30+ years sailing, owner of Catalina 36. Currently enjoy low stress cruising but have done Vic-Maui & Kenwood Cup (Peterson 40'), watch captain on delivery Hawaii-Seattle (70' Perry custom) and countless beer can races. Retired with flexible schedule. Wife also experienced sailor if interested in couples. Quiet and competent.
Hi Norway 2009,
Any scheduling for crossing the atlantic?
My name is Adam Kane, I'm soon to be 30 (in a few weeks) and I'm currently living in Dillingham, Alaska working as a reporter for a small public radio station. Dillingham is a small town on the Bering Sea in Southwest Alaska. I graduated from university in Automotive Engineering (a field I most likely will never work in) then I left the US as a Peace Corps volunteer on the island of Malekula in Vanuatu, where I was often traveled between islands on small (overloaded) cargo ships and ocassionaly sailing boat. Following that I traveled for nearly 2 years through Australia/New Zealand, all of South East Asia, China, Korea, Japan. India and then England. Then I flew to Panama, sailed to Colombia and backpacked for a year through South America all the way down to Argentina. During my travels in South America I learned to speak Spanish very well. I returned to the US in April of 08 and came almost directly to Alaska. I came here with the intention of staying for 2-3 years and saving money in order to go out traveling again. Last year I got the idea to go sailing. I have been on a few boats and never been sea sick. I also am economically independent, no children, no smoking, no debt, etc... I have been planning my departure from here and I have decided that late 2010 would be ideal, so when I saw your post I thought it would be perfect. I am small enough (5'6") to take up very little space and I don't eat much, I'm very easy to deal with and accustomed to living in remote places with very few things. I also speak a few languages, although I wouldn't say I'm fluent in most of them. I would like to find out more about the trip you are planning. I have been looking at many posts on a variety of websites and I've seen listings for circumnavigations that may take 2-3 years, I would be committed for the entirety of it regardless of it's length. I do have enough money to get me through in some situations, including visas, food, and what ever I might need when we were on land. So that's where I'm at, please let me know what you're thinking. I would also be willing to fly to Norway for the departure. I hope to hear back from you,
Adam Kane

Crewing up for Norway-Tenerife 2010
Dear Sir,
I am kindly inquiring are you having any paid positions in your boat?
Cpt. Julle
Sailing away!
My name is Alyssa. I am a 21 year old American student, gearing up to graduate in May 2010 with a BA in Sociology and Anthropology. I fell in love with sailing when I was 10 years old. We had little 10 foot boats at my summer camp, and every chance I got I was out sailing one. This summer I worked as a nanny in Turkey and spent some time with the family on a 37' Sun Odyssey on the Aegean Sea. This semester at school I took a sailing course where I sailed a 14' Catalina Capri.
Though I do not have a sailing certification, I do have an irresistible passion for the wind and sea. I am familiar with the intuitive motions of sailing, much of the vocabulary and I am a quick and efficient learner. I hope to have a boat of my own within the next five years, but for now I am looking for the chance to sail and see the world with some more seasoned seafarers.
I am a certified lifeguard (though I think my certification is up this June...) I speak French. I took one semester of Spanish and find that I understand more than I can speak, but also have a propensity for picking languages up quickly (as I saw when I spent time in Turkey and Viet Nam.)
I have a lot of travel experience and have no problem being in a confined space with a group of people for extended periods of time. Countries I have visited include: Italy, France, England, Belgium, Sweden, Germany, Cambodia, New Zealand and Canada. I studied for half a year in Vietnam and worked in Turkey for three months.
I am responsible, reliable and have been bit by the bug for adventure! I work hard, but know when to relax and let loose. I am an excellent cook (and have experience cooking in the small quarters a sailboat has to offer! Not to mention being a college student I have learned how to spice up and make exciting most things that would seem repetitive after a long while…this seems like an important skill when on the water without refrigeration or fresh produce!) I read a lot of books, write poetry, dabble with various musical instruments. Ingenuity, innovation and imagination are strong points. I only need to be told directions once but never hesitate to ask clarifying questions in order to make sure a job gets done right the first time. My sleep habits can fluxuate as needed – which I know is important on long passages when someone is up and on watch at all times.
I love to meet and spend time with people of all ages, work in unfamiliar situations and learn new skills.
I hope you will consider me for your upcoming trips. I am interested in both legs (Norway to Spain and then across the Atlantic). Please reply to email@example.com if you have any questions or would like to know more about me!
Thank you!
Alyssa Conley

I've just finished making a resin US Buckle and Belt for a guy as he couldn't get hold of the real deal. I'm really pleased with the results. The buckle is decorative (doesn't actually work) but once attached to the belt and is being worn it will look just like the real thing. Here's how I made it:
- I made a mould of my original buckle and took a resin copy.
- I sprayed the buckle in a coat of very fine grade modelling primer then applied a very thin coat of automotive silver.
- Next, I lightly weathered the buckle with a black acrylic wash.
- Then I used a layer of Pewter 'Rub N Buff' followed by a lighter layer of Silver Rub N Buff. This gave it a nice metallic look and feel.
- I then dremelled two holes on the reverse and embedded a couple of small bolts into it using epoxy filler. The buckle is now complete.
- For the belt I used a good quality 2 inch black webbing and added the two 'eyelets' in the centre.
- I then added the Velcro strips on the ends of the belt.
The Velcro belt could attach to your jet pack if you wanted to actually make it a little more authentic, but once the belt is fastened it will look just like it's attached to your jet pack anyway as the back of the belt will be hidden underneath your jet pack.

Via Rockies Twitter
#Rockies have traded RHP Parker Frazier to the #Reds in exchange for RHP Armando Galarraga. Galarraga will go to Triple-A.
Via Rockies Twitter
#Rockies have traded RHP Parker Frazier to the #Reds in exchange for RHP Armando Galarraga. Galarraga will go to Triple-A.
Frazier has an almost unfathomably bad H/9 rate in AAA this season. May have been better off just keeping Armando, unless the coaches see something in young Parker.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
Sitting down with Tulsa Drillers relief pitcher Parker Frazier
Henry: You've moved to the bullpen this season. What has that change been like for you?
Frazier: They put me in the bullpen once I got to Big League camp and it was an adjustment. The biggest adjustment has been figuring out what pitch to use when I come in the game and knowing that those pitches have to be on point. When I was starting last year, (Duane) Espy (Colorado Rockies' Double-A Development Supervisor) always told me that if I could get through the first two or three innings, I would cruise. I don't have that luxury coming out of the bullpen. I have to come out and keep the ball down and get another pitcher out of a jam. There is a sense of pride from being able to help him out of that jam.
Henry: Have you adjusted to your new role yet?
Frazier: I'm still adjusting to it, but I feel like I am in the role that the Rockies provided. I think I have it mentally figured out, but I need to become more consistent with my pitches. I have to throw strikes and I have to put the ball where I want it to go. In the spring, I was trying to figure it out against big-league hitters. That's when I really learned that you have to shrink your misses.
I'm a sinker-slider guy with a decent change and I have to come out of the bullpen ready to hit on those pitches. When I come in and get in a groove, I still get into a starter mentality. But when you come out of the bullpen, you have to be cut-throat. You have to have that mentality and come in like a fire has been lit under you.
Henry: How has your dad helped you as a pitcher?
Frazier: A lot of people ask me about that and it's really tough to explain. He's seen me pitch more in the pros than he did in high school. In high school, it was more phone calls than anything. With him involved with the Rockies and me with the Rockies, it was awkward at first but it's also been a blessing. When I got the role in the bullpen, that's when he was really able to help me. A lot of people say they see some of him in me. I want to develop my own identity, but I also know that he played 10 seasons in the majors. He's helped me with the mental side of the game the most.
Rockies Acquire Armando Galarraga
By Steve Adams [July 15 at 11:47am CST]
Here's your rundown of Monday's minor moves from around the league...
The Rockies have traded minor league right-hander Parker Frazier to the Reds in exchange for Armando Galarraga, the team announced on Twitter. Frazier was the team's eighth-round pick in 2007 and has a career 4.75 ERA with 5.8 K/9 and 2.5 BB/9 in 699 minor league innings. The 24-year-old reached Triple-A this season for the first time. Frazier entered the season as the team's No. 30 prospect, according to Baseball America. Galarraga famously threw a near-perfect game with the Tigers in 2010. He has a 4.78 ERA in 542 career Major League innings, though he's been significantly better in Triple-A this season, pitching to a 2.98 ERA with 6.6 K/9 and 3.6 BB/9. The move is clearly a depth signing, as the Rockies announced that Galarraga will report to Triple-A Colorado Springs.
Parker Frazier traded to Reds for Armando Galarraga
The Rockies picked Frazier in the eighth round of the 2007 draft. A top high school pitcher in Oklahoma, Frazier underwent elbow surgery earlier in his pro career and began showing promise. He was arguably Tulsa's best starter last season, and appeared to have a shot to make the Rockies as a middle reliever at one point in September. Frazier was a candidate for the bullpen this spring, but struggled in his transition. He posted a 10.67 ERA in nine games with the Sky Sox, including three starts.
He has been involved in several trade talks over the last few years. This offers a potentially fresh start for the right-hander.
Greg Reynolds #2?
Parker Frazier has some upside so I see this as a nice bullpen depth move for the future. Interesting that his former big leaguer father is a TV commentator for the Rockies.
Werleen Taveras to Dayton (from Billings)
Robert Stephenson to Bakersfield (from Dayton)
Carlos Contreras to Pensacola (from Bakersfield)
Ryan Dennick to Louisville (from Pensacola)
Parker Frazier is due to become a free agent after this season unless the Reds add him to the 40-man roster.

Does Parker Frazier have any option years left if he was placed on the 40 man roster?
The Reds and Rockies kick-started the second half trade market by swapping Triple-A arms, one with 100 big league appearances and the other with zero. Cincinnati acquired 24-year-old righthander Parker Frazier, who ranked among the Rockies' top 30 prospects in each of the past five seasons, while Colorado received veteran Armando Galarraga to provide pitching depth at Colorado Springs.
Frazier will qualify for minor league free agency in November if he's not on the Reds' 40-man roster or on a new minor league deal for 2014.
Thanks Cinreds21.

Human remains found in the search for Christina Adkins
(Cleveland) -- Police have delivered skeletal remains that they discovered in the area that the Violent Crimes Task Force was searching today near I-490 and I-71.
The Medical Examiner's Office has confirmed that the remains are human. Unfortunately it could take weeks for the identification process to be completed.
The FBI was led to this area in their search for Christina Adkins who has been missing since 1995. This is the third such search in recent weeks, but the only one in which human remains were discovered.
Adkins has been missing since January 11, 1995. She was 17 and pregnant when she disappeared.
Cleveland Police are questioning convicted sex offender Elias Acevedo in the disappearance of Christina Adkins.
He's in the Cuyahoga County Jail, for charges in a 1993 rape case. He's 44 years old and lived in the Vega Avenue home the FBI searched back in August.

Welcome to Golden Goals - a FREE video series on USA.Arsenal.com which showcases some of the finest goals in Arsenal's history.
Each of our weekly clips will feature footage of a classic goal plus expert analysis from former Gunner Stewart Robson and Arsenal.com editor Richard Clarke.
Our series continues with a long-range strike from Ray Parlour in the 2002 FA Cup Final.
Read on for the story of his goal and click the PLAY button above to watch our FREE video clip.
Ray Parlour v Chelsea (N) 05-04-2002
Ray Parlour was not known as much of a goal scorer in his playing days, but he wasn't adverse to shooting from long-range. Perhaps it was because on occasion, some of them went in, including strikes against Valencia in 2001, Werder Bremen in 2000 - and this one at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.
The 2002 FA Cup Final was locked at 0-0 with 20 minutes left when Tony Adams found Sylvain Wiltord near the half-way line. The Frenchman turned away from his mark and slid the ball into the path of a rushing Parlour, who had burst through the center of the pitch.
William Gallas was playing close to Parlour but the French defender backed off to cover Wiltord's run into the box. Parlour turned to his right, evaded the back-tracking John Terry and found himself with open space 25 yards from the goal.
What happened next was immortalized when a Chelsea supporter on Sky Sports' 'Fanzone' coverage of the Final made the mistake of discounting 'The Romford Pelé'. The words "It's only Ray Parlour," had barely escaped his lips when Parlour let fly.
Chelsea's players could only watch as the ball flew beyond a diving Carlo Cudicini and into the top corner.
Ten minutes later Freddie Ljungberg added a second and Arsenal had the first half of their 2002 Double. But it was Parlour's strike that made it all happen.

Endowment Honors Emeritus Professors of English Kent and Mimi Dixon
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio - For 33 years, Kent and Mimi Dixon contributed their time and talents to Wittenberg University's Department of English before retiring last year, and though their work as professors is officially over, their legacy continues with the help of a donation from their son Chris.
The Mimi and Kent Dixon Professorship in Creative Writing, will allow the English Department to hire a visiting faculty member to teach at Wittenberg for one semester each year. Chris's donation acts as seed money for the Professorship, as the university works to build the $500,000 endowment through further fundraising.
The money will be used to continue to bolster the English Department's creative writing program.
"The endowed professorship will pay the salary for a professor selected to hold this writer-in-residence position for a semester," said Cynthia Richards, chair of the English Department.
Kent Dixon explained that the donation will allow the department to grow despite his and his wife's departure, and will allow the new professor to develop as a writer as well.
"The person we hire for a semester will be teaching only two courses as opposed to the normal load of three, because we also want this to be a fellowship for young up-and-coming writers, said Dixon. "We want to give them time to write when they're here. So it's a great opportunity for young, rising writers. And who knows, we might hook, for a semester, the next Spielberg."
These new professors, who will rotate in and out each semester, will allow the department to offer a variety of new creative writing topics each year.
"The new professors will help infuse our program with new ideas, new energy, and new forms," said Richards. "They will continue to build the reputation of our already flourishing creative writing program."
The Professorship was established as a way to honor the Dixons' lasting work within the department; Mimi helped create the university's Writing Center and cross-curricular writing program, and Kent began the creative writing program.
"Both were visionaries, and both continue to practice their craft in innovative and life-affirming ways," Richards said.
With the help of their son, the Dixon's legacy will continue at Wittenberg for years to come.
"I like having our name on something that I hope can endure long, long after we're gone and forgotten," said Kent. "I am much beholden to our son for this, and so is Wittenberg."

New Software Yellows Neglected Digital Photos Over Time
February 8, 2006 | Issue 4206
ROCHESTER, NYEastman Kodak released an imaging software package that yellows, fades, and even loses digital photos over time Monday. "With the click of a mouse, Fotomatshop will make your digital photographs crease, develop fingerprint spots, and even stick together in their 'virtual shoebox,'" Kodak president Antonio Perez said. "It even has motion-blur and redden-eye features." The software takes a week to process 26 digital photos, and charges $9.95 per use.

In-Game Blog/Box score
ITHACA, N.Y. -- Cornell shook off an early first half deficit thanks to an outstanding defensive performance, advancing to the Ivy League championship final at Schoellkopf Field for the second straight year after an 11-7 victory over Yale on Friday evening. The conference semifinal win will pit the league champion Big Red against No. 3 seed Harvard on Sunday at noon for the conference's automatic bid.
Cornell improved to 12-2 on the year, while Yale fell to 10-4. The Crimson won the earlier semifinal with a 12-8 victory over second-seeded Penn. The two teams met on April 9 in Cambridge, Mass., with the Big Red escaping with a 13-12 triumph en route to an unbeaten conference slate.
"First of all, I want to congratulate Coach Shay and the Yale Bulldogs on a wonderful season," said head coach Ben DeLuca. "I really want to compliment our senior leadership and how they led this team through some adversity today. This was a very competitive game but we gritted it out and showed some toughness in getting this win."
For the second game in a row, Cornell watched the visitors jump out to an early lead, but used a ferocious defense to hold the Bulldogs scoreless for a span of 29:06 from the end of the first until the tird quarter to turn a 4-1 deficit into an 8-4 lead. Despite the Bulldogs' brilliance in the faceoff circle, the home team was never threatened the rest of the way. Cornell earned credit for 15 caused turnovers, including three by Jason Noble and two apiece by Mike Bronzino and Roy Lang. Bronzino added six ground balls and three other players posted four each. AJ Fiore made 10 saves over the final three quarters and posted 11 for the game in picking up the win between the pipes.
All-American Rob Pannell had a goal and five assists to lead the offense, while Lang, Mike O'Neil and Steve Mock registered hat tricks. Lang added an assist, while David Lau had a pair of assists. Cornell held a 37-29 shot advantage, including a 20-11 edge in the middle two quarters.
For Yale, Matt Gibson's three goals made him the only multi-point scorer. Cole Yeager (10-of-14) and Dylan Levings (6-of-7) helped the visitors dominate faceoffs, winning 16-of-22 restarts on the evening. Johnathan Falcone made nine saves. Yeager and Patrick Coleman each won six ground balls, with Coleman and Peter Johnson each recording a pair of caused turnovers.
Cornell scored first after a Yale goal was waved off due to an offsides call, but the Bulldogs battled back with consecutive goals to take a 2-1 lead three minutes in. A face-of victory by Yeagher answered O'Neil's score seven seconds after the Big Red made it 1-0. A minute later, Gibson buried a shot on a feed from Brian Douglass to give the visitors a 2-1 lead.
Yale extended the run to four goals before Cornell got a great finish from O'Neil on a thread-the-needle pass from Pannell to make it 4-2. Cornell had a late flurry looking to get back within one, but the period ended with the visitors up two goals.
Pannell's feed to O'Neil made it 4-3 with 5:14 gone in the second quarter, giving the freshman a career high in scoring, and a couple of rapid-fire goals, one by Pannell and another assisted by the junior attacker made it 5-4. The equalizer was a great find of Pannell in transition by Scott Austin, and the All-American's shot riccocheted off a defender's leg and crawled over the line. Pannell's feed to Mock on the crease was cashed in to give Cornell its first lead since the opening minutes.
Cornell added to the lead when a quick pass sequence from Pannell to Lau to a wide open Mock with seven seconds left in the half made it 6-4. The Big Red defense continued to dominate after the early hiccup, holding Yale without a goal for the final 17:28 of the half to go into the break leading by two.
The top-seeded home team dominated the second quarter, out-shooting Yale 10-3 and outscoring the Bulldogs 4-0. O'Neil, who entered the game with nine scores on the year, netted the first three tallies of the day for the Big Red. Pannell had a goal and three assists at the break.
Lang got the scoring underway after halftime with an unassisted goal more than five minutes into the contest, and Pannell found JJ Gilbane with 6:59 left on the clock in the quarter. Yale finally ended a 7-0 Big Red run by scoring its first goal in 29:06 when Jack Flaherty cut the deficit to 8-5 with 3:22 left in the third.
Cornell goals closed the third quarter and opened the fourth, with Pannell picking up his fifth assist of the day on a Steve Mock score early in the final quarter to double up the visitors at 10-5. The teams traded goals in the final two minutes after Yale got back within 10-6, including a spectacular man-down goal by Lang to cap Cornell's scoring with 1:30 to play. It was the Big Red's first man down goal of the season.
The Big Red and Crimson will meet in the championship game on Sunday, May 8 at noon. The game can be seen live on ESPNU or online on ESPN3.

So ive decided to scratch build a Fett bucket, for a few reasons. 1 It seemed like a fun inexpensive project. 2 i want to do a custom mando after i finishmy ESB fett, without having to buy another bucket, and 3, if this comes out as good as im hoping, i can offer some for sale (or trade)to help me finance other costumes.
i have a bobamaker helmet which i just recently picked up from 7654321a, which will be my ESB fett helmet for trooping, and that will also serve as an excellent reference for size and angles and such.
So i started with the WOF templates and some heavyweight posterboard...heres where im at right now...
Once i get this shaped out for the most part, i will glass the inside to sturdy it up and then use bondo to smooth the seams and any imperfections, and also fine tune the details.

'"I'm really, really proud in how the team's going," Kotalik said. "It was a little frustrating when you're looking around and all these guys around you are putting up goals and contributing offensively and you just can't find a way. Everything you do, you put 100 percent effort into your preparation for games, and whatever I did I just couldn't get the reward like the other guys. That was frustrating for me."'

Looks like a real tack driver! Mauser 98s are my favorite bolt actions.
Well boys and girls here's the Mauser I got from bellson all ready to go. Put a 4x16x42 Nikon on it with side focus and have to go sight it in now, I think???? I'm not really sure I'm going to keep the scope though, I was very disapointed in it, no screw in lens caps, the power ring is very sloppy and loose, the side focus lock only sorta locks( puts it into a detent type mode w/clicks) but a bump would move it for sure. Philippienes manufacture too???? What happened to the japaneese quality optics of the past?? No sun shade included $35 extra. For $350+ shade I don't really think it's all THAT much better than one of the $130 Bushnells I've got, a little better but I don't have anything else comprible to compair it to, but it's only slightly better. The finish is weird too the slightest touch leaves a mark and it collects dirt like crazy, almost like an old, dry, rubber armored scope, durability?????. Pretty disapointed in it over all and I'm not sure I'll keep it, it might just might go back. A couple pics of my fancy shooting bench I built a couple years ago are in there too 4 ft long 3 ft wide, NICE. I hate those little scrunched up shooting benchs ya can't get commfy on and have no place for your ammo and such. Of course it weighs as much as the Queen Mary but it's a very stable shooting platform. 1 1/2" thick top, 1 3/4" black iron pipe legs with caps on the ground side and stainless hardware, pretty rugged and stable. As you can tell, I've never been accused of "under building" anything!!!! The only thing left to do on the Mauser is to do the engine turning/jeweling on the bolt and bolt relese face and to get the engraved scope rings here now I know the hight requirement and replace the floor plate with an ingraved one, there's a couple spots on the stock I don't care for so I'll redo that also, then she'll be done, done! PHEWWWW lots of fussing around for a new gun, I just can't leave things well enough alone I guess, YEA RIGHT, look who I'm talking to, you guys are as bad as me!!! I've seen that already with you all!! What makes us act so???
Looks like a real tack driver! Mauser 98s are my favorite bolt actions.
Lengthy story, and pictures to go with it, but I don't think you said what caliber it was. It looks like a nice gun. I bought a Mauser action from my buddy the other day, but I havn't decided what to make out of it. I have shells, brass and dies for a 25.06, but I already have a 257 Ackley Imp. He wants me to make it into a 6.5-284. It will be a little while before it is time to decide anyway. Mausers are some slick actions. Good shooting.
In truth, TWA already PM'd me to express all of that. I will let him post publicly if it meets his fancy. I have one of these stainless actions left. PM me if interested...
Imagine whirled peas
Peace, Love, And Superior Firepower
That Mauser is a real tack driver. I will defer to TWA to define how good or not that rifle is. I am told that I build really good rifles (although, TWA did gig me on some fit and finish points, which were probably well deserved). But I am not the best marksman....Bad eyes. But I try really hard!
Imagine whirled peas
Peace, Love, And Superior Firepower
OH YA, it's a tack driver all right!!!!! I'll wait for the REAL scope to get mounted before I do some long range stuff with it, most I've shot so far is 200 m and was bouncing cans around like it was nothing. I only have a 3-10.5x 45mm Bushnell on it right now and ended up sending back the Nikon pictured on it, for all the reasons i listed above. What ever gigs there were with this gun were just because of my persnickity nature, not because of the gun, or the build, what ever gigs there were, were miniscule. The only thing that needed attenntion was the safty needed a bit more stock relief to allow it to go fully into the safe detent, not a biggie,2 seconds with the dremel and done. I'm like the rest of you here, I just can't leave well enough alone and always have to add or tweak something!!! You know how it is. Otherwise I just did some polishing to get the bolt & bolt relese & follower ready for the jeweling, just cosmetic stuff. Once I do get the "Real scope" for it I'll lap the rings like you should, I didn't on the 3-10 and it still shoots great. This is the target I shot last week with it, it was only at 200 but all the 6 holes were one, I love being "one with the holes"!! So I' think this target say's it all. I got great expectations for this gun once it's broke in all the way, and I've found that "Sweet Load" for it, but for sure, IT SHOOTS as is!!!!! I was just using a load that I had developed for my Ruger M77 varmit gun. 168gr match kings. Now you've gone and done it bellson!!! I just might need to do some dickering with you on the other one sense you still got it, what ya got for barrels for the other one??? 06 Heavy barrel? HUMMMMM lets see heavy barrel 06, grade 3-4 manlicher stock, LOVE manlicer stocks and Mausers!!! Just what I need, Mauser about # 10 or so, make me a deal I can't refuse bellson!!!! PM me, full action other than stock, I'll build or find a stock. Just wish I still had dads replicator, that made inletting a stock real easy. I think Saterdays 6 round target will say it all when it comes to the way it shoots!!! What ya think boys? Just wait till I get it tweeked and a good scope on it!! Should be dime size by then. These are the size groups I normally shoot at around 5-600 with my other tweeked toys. I may be old and decrepid, but the old boy can still shoot!! Can't climb, walk ,work or f**k like I used to, but THANK GOD I can sill shoot!!! Some consolation anyways!!
That is a beautiful rifle.
I've found that the Super Sniper line of scopes are the best in their price range. Aside from those, I've become partial to Leopolds.
Who makes that stock? I like it alot and need one for a small ring 93.
Fajian stock. I'm 5'10" 170 and it fits me great, nice LOP, palm swells, nice flat fore arm(I use a short bipod or rest though) Heavy but that's what you want for a target/chuck/yottie gun anyways.
Just to throw my $0.02 in -- My avatar is a 400 yard target from the mauser Bellson build for me years ago. Same stock, different barrel, etc etc etc. You can find the thread on this if you search on "Hole punch"
"A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within.", Will Durant
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.", Edmund Burke
NICE jrs, can't wait for a decent scope so I can see that far, don't really want to pull one from anouther gun, even though it would give me an excuse to sight in two guns, instead of just one, HUMMMMMMM, well maybe???? No, No, new scope!! I'll just shoot it twice as long, same effect. Ya that works!!

Wednesday 1st December 2010
Despite the fact it is well over ten years since I missed any first class fixture I have never claimed that it wouldn't happen one day. All the time I enjoy going, can afford it or another one of life's matters doesn't get in the way I will be there week in week out. If it wasn't for the fact I moved home a few months back, it is highly likely Tuesday night's match would not have been graced with my presence!
Those of you Gooners based particularly in Kent but other areas of the south-east too will be fully aware of what I am talking about.
Remembering that London and Arsenal is only an hour away from the people I am referring to here, as the dust has settled this morning I have listened to tales of not only how some simply couldn't get to the match but also how those few who did (or tried to) found themselves getting home just in time for breakfast!
Snow hit big time yesterday afternoon and consequently as we secured our Carling Cup semi-final place many had to endure a whole freezing cold night in their car or on a train!
The streets of London late afternoon and early evening, including of course those around N5, although extremely chilly, didn't give any indication as to the carnage being experienced just a few miles away. Yes, there were a few snow flurries but the streets remained wet if anything and consequently the game was never in doubt.
Many from our supporters club down in Maidstone hadn't made it and once inside the stadium, the numerous empty seats in a 'sold out' fixture confirmed just how many had been beaten by the weather on this occasion.
Despite all this, we had a job to do of course and we progressed through to the semis in relative comfort.
Without being at our free-flowing best, a strong-looking outfit despite the nine changes made from the Villa starting line up created all but perhaps one of the clear-cut openings, the only shock being it took an own goal late in the first half to get us on our way.
Nicky's goal doubled our lead and although we squandered many more opportunities it very much was a case of job done.
Overall it means we can relax in front of the other two quarter finals tonight before we find out who we will take on in the last four.
As we look forward to Fulham at home in our next outing I'm not sure how many of my Gooner mates will remain awake for tonight's action given the previous 24 hours!
I do know however, they will be massively warmer!

Have you ever looked down at the footpath in Melbourne's CBD and wondered about those 20cm round bronze plaques that seem to lead a trail through the city? Well, they are the path of the Golden Mile Heritage Trail. This walking tour explores Melbourne's buildings, laneways, streets, characters and history from its beginnings through to modern times. And, on a beautiful sunny Melbourne morning last week, I went to discover what it was all about!
The tour started at Federation Square, on the intersection of Swanston and Flinders Streets, one of Melbourne's liveliest spots for over 150 years. Our tour guide set the scene for the rest of the walk, describing the history of the buildings around us. From the 1852 gold rush era St Paul's Cathedral on one corner to the famous Young & Jackson's pub of 1861 opposite; from the Federation era opulence of Flinders Street Station of 1910, to the ultra contemporary public spaces of Federation Square, this intersection provides a physical snapshot of the city's history.

We next walked along the Yarra talking about how Melbourne was built up around this spot from its beginnings as an Aboriginal meeting place to the coming of Europeans to today. We chatted about some of the characters in the city's early history, such as John Batman, John Pascoe Fawkner and Robert Hoddle, and how they shaped the city. Our guide also pointed out interesting sites like the outlet for the creek that runs under Elizabeth Street and the Sandridge Bridge. This Bridge was originally a railway bridge and was the line that took immigrant passengers from Port Melbourne to Flinders Street Station before embarking on a new life in Australia. Now a pedestrian bridge, its sculptures and text panels explore the waves of people,from Melbourne's Indigenous inhabitants onward who have crossed the river on this spot.
Immigration Museum was next, where the tour officially starts. I turned tour guide for a few minutes, guiding our guide through the Immigration Discovery Centre and explaining what we do here.
We then meandered through some of my favourite sites in Melbourne - its laneways! I got to pop my head inside the Mitre Tavern and found out the fascinating history of the Savage Club, plus discovered a new spot I hadn't previously known about and will definitely be popping back to. Rutherglen House is an 1850s bluestone residence/warehouse located on Highlander Lane. Today it's still a private residence!
After our little laneway exploration, we wandered up Collins Street discussing the progress of Marvellous Melbourne and the boom and bust of the 1880s to 1890s. Despite the many modern office blocks that I always feel characterise Collins Street, there are actually a surprising number of buildings from the 1870s to 1900 period that survive. There are some fabulous opulent buildings like the Gothic ANZ bank building on the corner of Elizabeth Street and the adjoining Stock Exchange. I also really enjoyed seeing the way the 1890s Rialto and Winfield buildings have been incorporated into the Intercontinental Hotel and Rialto Towers.

The tour ended another hour later with some of Melbourne's famous arcades: the Block Arcade from the 1890s; Howey Place, next to which the famous Cole's Book Arcade was once located; and the controversial Capitol Arcade, developed in the 1960s.
As you can see the tour was densely packed and I could write reams on more of the great stories that our guide had to impart. He was amazingly knowledgeable, gave fabulous detailed accounts, and brought to life Melbourne's history for me. Most of all, he answered my constant questions with good grace and love of his subject. As a student of urban history, it was a fascinating insight and a great opportunity to talk with someone who had an in-depth knowledge of these places. If you want to get to know Melbourne, whether you're a visitor or a local, I highly recommend going on one of these walking tours.
Grant, thanks for your comment. Yes, 20cm is a bit large. I went out and measured one of the larger ones on the plaza and they're 10cm across. There are smaller dots between the big ones too, of course.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.

Efficient, i thought the seraquin i bought was the larger tablet, i received the smaller ones. That may not be necessarily your fault but mine, was difficult to judge by the picture. That was why i did 4 stars.
My purchase from bob martin vetcare's service was very good my items were delivered within 2 days
On 15 Jun 2017 Bob Martin Vetcare responded:
Hi Alan! Thanks so much for the feedback. We really appreciate it!
A quiet and undemanding representative on the phone who gave professional advice and listened to the symptoms of the dog and was pleased for the feedback of the product (Zylkene). Even the manufacturer when telephoned, didn't give such a good service. I'd call Bob Martin Vetcare again for advice! Gromit's happy too!
It was easy to order what I wanted and it was delivered on time. It was an excellent service Thank You
My dog has severe arthritis and is taking rymidol pain killers for the forseable. Unfortunately as these tablets are anti inflamitory's they affect his tummy and he always has the runs and also kept being sick. I read about this powder so thought I'd give it a try. He has been on these for 6 months now and has only had diahreah once and hasn't been sick. Amazing product which I highly recommend. Also the price is excellent would have cost me £80 at the vets so by buying from bob martin it is half price perfect thank you
Ordering and payment was fairly easy and delivery within a couple of days. When you have four cats, the value for money is good.
Thankyou from ; Pebbles, Ruffio, Crystal and George !

A body was found early Sunday morning along a bike path near C-470 and West Bowles Avenue. A bicyclist discovered the unidentified man about 6:10 a.m. while riding on the trail.
The death does not appear suspicious, said sheriff's spokeswoman Jacki Kelley, though investigators are interviewing acquaintances of the man, whose next of kin have not yet been notified.
"The body has been removed," she said. "It's still under investigation."
Two-term Republican state Rep. Ken Summers has spent more than three decades building a career in Christian-service organizations.
The Colorado native and longtime Lakewood resident began work as an associate pastor at a Pentecostal church in 1978, and he was most recently hired as executive director of Teen Challenge of the Rocky Mountains, a Christianity-based program for "those with life-controlling problems."
A naval officer related to South Jeffco state Rep. Jim Kerr was killed July 23 while on a tour of duty in Afghanistan.
Petty Officer Justin McNeley, 30, who grew up in Wheat Ridge, had been stationed in Afghanistan for nearly a year, serving a support mission with land-based forces.
"He was a really good kid," said Kerr, McNeley's uncle through marriage. Kerr and his family spoke briefly to media outlets, later issuing a statement through the Navy and asking for privacy.
Libertarian congressional candidate Rob McNealy and a group of supporters panhandled for campaign contributions July 28 in Aurora, holding signs reading "Betcha' can't hit me with a quarter" and "Throw the bums out of D.C."
Passing drivers at the busy Interstate 225 northbound off-ramp at Parker Road seemed to respond tepidly to the tongue-in-cheek stunt, though some honked horns or rolled down car windows to accept pamphlets.
Waterton Canyon is closed.
The popular hiking and bicycling path — a starting point of the famous Colorado Trail — will remain inaccessible from Aug. 2 through Dec. 3, as contractors begin dredging at least 625,000 cubic yards of muck from Strontia Springs Reservoir.
With temperatures hovering in the 80s, scores of visitors visited the canyon Sunday for a farewell day of recreation. Though skies remained clear for most of the day, afternoon and evening drizzles punctuated the final hours of the park's public availability.
Michael Shawn Kearns, 52, a retired military intelligence officer with no previous experience in elected office, has launched a low-key campaign as an unaffiliated, write-in candidate in the 6th Congressional District, which includes Evergreen.
Other candidates in the running are incumbent Republican Mike Coffman, Libertarian Rob McNealy of Aurora and Democrat John Flerlage of Littleton.
The cost of animal adoptions at the Table Mountain Animal Center will be reduced by 50 percent through Aug. 8, as the center prepares its move to the new Foothills Animal Shelter building.
The shelter currently houses more than 300 dogs, cats and small animals and is attempting to reduce the number of pets that will need to be relocated to the new building, which opens Aug. 11. Animals will be transported to the new 30,000-square-foot facility at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds on Aug. 9 and 10; neither building will be open on those two days.
House District 22 challenger Democrat Chris Radeff has been practicing law for 16 years, experience that she says makes her an ideal candidate for the state legislature.
As a family-law attorney, the Lakewood resident has guided hundreds of families through divorce, with most ending in amicable settlements, she said. And though she openly plugs her negotiation skills, she also cites years of running a successful small business as indicative of economic aptitude.
About 74 acres of the Dakota Ridge Hogback burned in a brush fire that broke out about 2 p.m. Monday near C-470 south of the Morrison Road exit. The cause of the blaze still was undetermined as of Tuesday morning.
Strong winds fanned the flames and pushed the rapidly growing fire south. Authorities had closed eastbound C-470 at I-70 by 5 p.m. Monday because of fire equipment being sent to the scene.
Residents' opinions on bikes, pedestrians and land-use issues were discussed last week at the second of two sparsely attended public meetings on an update to South Jeffco's community plan.
County planning officials collected public input through a small survey and gave brief overviews of the process by which the area's individual plan will be integrated into the county's new Comprehensive Master Plan. Also presented was a draft of the county's bike/pedestrian plan, which is likely to take effect next year.

Poughkeepsie, N.Y. – After a slow start to the game, the Canisius College women's lacrosse team dominated the second half en route to a 14-7 win in the MAAC Semifinals against Siena on Friday afternoon. The top-seeded Griffs now advance to Sunday's championship game against either No. 2 Fairfield or No. 3 Marist, improving to 13-4 on the season. Siena finishes the 2013 campaign with a 4-12 record.
"Our intensity level was up-and-down today," said Canisius head coach Scott Teeter. "We made enough plays when it counted and really rode two first-team All-MAAC players in Morgan Leonard and Ashley Bull all day. We just need regroup and come back with our 'A' game on Sunday."
Senior Morgan Leonard led the Griffs offense in the victory, matching career highs with seven points and five goals. With her seven points, Leonard has now recorded 104 points at Canisius, becoming the 10th player in school history to reach the triple-digit mark. Leonard also picked up a personal-best seven ground balls, while freshman Ashley Bull set career highs with four ground balls and three draw controls to help anchor the Canisius defense.
Sophomore Tori Quinn chipped in five points on the offensive end, recording two goals and three assists. Junior Maria Kotas added four points on a pair of goals and two assists with sophomore Meghan Cuddy netting her second career hat trick. Senior Lindsey Morgan and sophomore Whitley Perry rounded out the scoring for Canisius with a goal apiece.
Sophomore Kayla Scully recorded seven saves in the crease to earn the victory.
In a sloppy first half, Leonard carried the Griffs in the opening 30 minutes of action by recording six of her career-best seven points. The senior opened the scoring in the game with 24:48 remaining for the early 1-0 advantage. After Siena tied the contest, Leonard gave the Griffs the lead for good, scoring her second of the day and then assisting on Quinn's first goal for the 3-1 advantage. The assist on Quinn's tally was the 100th point of her tenure in the Blue and Gold.
The Saints got one back but two-straight goals by the MAAC Midfielder of the Year stretched the Canisius lead to 5-2. The schools then traded a pair of scores before a Saints tally with 26 seconds left in the half sent the teams into the intermission with the Griffs ahead, 7-5.
A key adjustment in the second stanza helped the Griffs control possession and cruise to the victory. After losing 11 of the game's first 15 draw controls, Canisius inserted freshman Brenna Murray into the draw circle. With an 8-6 lead, the Griffs responded by scoring the next six goals thanks to winning six of the game's final eight draw controls.
Cuddy started the run by finishing an end-to-end goal for a 9-6 lead. Kotas and Morgan then added free-position tallies before one goal by Perry and two by Cuddy sealed Canisius' fifth-straight MAAC Tournament victory with a 14-6 advantage. Siena scored the game's final goal it wasn't enough as the Griffs advance to Sunday's title game. Overall, the Griffs outscored the Saints, 7-2, in the second half en route to the 14-7 win.
Canisius finished the contest with a 30-20 advantage in shots and 24-16 edge in ground balls, while the Saints won the draw-control battle, 13-10.
Maggie Deloria and Lauren Smith led the Saints with two goals apiece, while Ashley Holdridge recorded 11 saves in net.
Canisius now looks to Sunday's title game when the Griffs attempt to become the first school to win three-straight MAAC Women's Lacrosse Championships. Game time in Poughkeepsie is scheduled for 1 p.m.
Game Notes: Leonard is just four goals shy of Megan Oosting's single-season record of 58 set last season … Quinn (72 points this season) became just the second Griff to top the 70-point mark in a single-season, joining her sister, Carly, who recorded 78 points last season … Quinn also moved to within three points of becoming the 11th player in school history with 100 career points … Canisius has now won its last eight games against the Saints and defeated Siena in the MAAC Semifinals for the second time (11-9 win in 2011).

Soldier home for Christmas surprises little brother at school
By APRIL GUILMET
Union Leader Correspondent | December 22. 2013 8:32PM
Anakin Williams, 5, of Londonderry got a special Christmas surprise Friday when his older brother Pvt. Sebastian Williams, 18, showed up unannounced in his kindergarten classroom at Moose Hill School. (APRIL GUILMET/Union Leader Correspondent)
The Londonderry High School graduate completed basic combat training at Fort Jackson, S.C., in September. He recently finished aviation training at Fort Eustis, Va. On Friday morning, Dee Williams, kitchen manager at North Elementary School, picked up her elder son at the airport while an unsuspecting Anakin was still at school.
That afternoon, a uniformed Pvt. Williams, accompanied by his mother and grandmother, walked through the front door at Moose Hill School. Anakin was busy decorating gingerbread cookies in teacher Sarah Keller's class when his mother came into the room.
"Your Christmas present came a little early," she told Anakin, as Pvt. Williams appeared in the doorway, scooping up his little brother.
"I wanted you under the tree," Anakin declared, planting a kiss on his brother's forehead.
It's been a tough year for the Williams family, with Anakin spending several weeks in the hospital recently after contracting a serious blood infection.
"This is exactly what he needed right now," Dee Williams said.
Grandmother Eunice Williams said the family learned a month ago that Pvt. Williams' request to come home in December had been approved.
"It was terrible trying to keep it secret," Dee Williams said.
"We almost slipped a couple times, but Anakin didn't notice," Eunice Williams added.
Pvt. Williams returns to Virginia Jan. 2 and will receive his permanent assignment Jan. 15. He's hoping for a position in Special Operations.

Associate in Applied Science Degree
The Field
SUNY Delhi's Business Administration program is designed to prepare students for successful business careers or continued management education. The Associate in Applied Science program in Business Administration is primarily for students who, after obtaining their degree at Delhi, plan either to pursue a career in business or transfer to a four-year college or university.
Program Summary
The Business Administration curriculum keeps pace with industry practices and incorporates innovations in management techniques as well as teaching/learning methods. Frequent contact between instructors, faculty advisors, and students is actively encouraged.
Students may participate in BIG, Bronco Investment Group. The purposes of the group are to learn and evaluate investment opportunities, acquire knowledge about money, use money to make money, learn to make wise decisions regarding money and avoid major financial mistakes. The group uses an online simulator to buy and sell stocks each week at club meetings.
Required courses for the Business Administration program cover a broad range of activities involved in the management of an organization. These include courses in accounting, marketing, finance, computer processing, communication, business law, and human relations. Special emphasis is given to developing the analytical and interpersonal skills needed for successful management careers.

Ushare configuration is not necessarily complicated, but it does require some CLI skills and is not that flexible. There are two main ways in which Ushare can be configured:
- AD-HOC: Opening a terminal window and running ushare with the correct parameters. For example:
ushare --name=Ushare -D --dlna --interface=wlan0 --content=/shares2
The line above creates a streaming session named "Ushare" as a daemon, using interface wlan0 and the PS3 streaming protocol, as well as sharing contents from the folder "/shares2".
- FIXED: Ushare uses a default configuration file,
/etc/ushare.conf, which allows users to configure all parameters so they remain static and Ushare always streams the same media through the same protocol.
I personally find both methods flawed, either cumbersome or not flexible enough. I own both a PS3 and an Xbox 360, so I want the flexibility to easily select the streaming protocol on the fly. More over, it isn't necessarily the smartest thing to share a big folder full of media files, for it may complicate things and make indexing slower.
As a result, I thought it would be better if there was a GUI interface that simplified the creation of a Ushare streaming session on the fly and in a matter of seconds, allowing users to easily share the specific media they are interested on. Such interface would not only help unexperienced users that do not feel comfortable using the CLI, but it would also save time for more experienced users.
To cope with the requirements above, I created UCT (Ushare Configuration Tool), a script that brings Ushare closer to the GUI and makes its configuration just a few clicks worth. An image is worth a thousand words, but in this case I recorded a video of UCT in action:
NOTE: I recommend watching this video fullscreen and in 720p resolution.
To further explain what is going on in this video, here's a step by step run through:
I first ran UCT from a desktop launcher. When the script starts up, it checked that Ushare was installed and that there were no previous active sessions running. It then proceeded to gather information about a few parameters so it can start a new streaming session, namely:
- Network Interface: Defaults to
wlan0, but a number of options are offered. If none of the options available fits the user setup, UCT cannot automate the creation of a session, so it quits. MANDATORY.
- Session Name: Defaults to "Ushare", so the field can be left blank or skip this step entirely.
- Device: Defaults to Playstation 3. MANDATORY.
- Share: Select a folder to be shared. Note that subfolders inside the selected folder will be streamed as well. MANDATORY.
With all the necessary information, UCT started a streaming session. I opened a terminal so I could display the active daemon process running. After that, I ran UCT again, which in turn detected that a previous instance of Ushare was already active. As a result, it offered the user an option to shut it down, but because killing processes requires admin privileges, credentials must be entered.
I hope you agree UCT simplifies using Ushare on a day to day basis, saving configuration time and adding flexibility. I am using it often and I am more comfortable streaming now than I ever have been. In the past there was always uncertainty about whether I typed the command correctly, but now it's just a few clicks and it's done.
Installing UCT is pretty simple, just follow these few steps:
- Download
UCT.shfrom HERE
- Store
UCT.shlocally and grant it execute rights from the GUI. To do it from the CLI:
chmod +x UCT.sh
- Create a launcher so that UCT can be started with a couple clicks from the GUI (optional).
That's all there is to it, really... other than having Ushare installed, of course! ;-)
- UCT does not provide an interface to modify the port Ushare uses for streaming, so it will need some manual tweaking if the default port used by the application is no good.
- It should be noted that firewalls can get in the way and prevent Ushare from streaming correctly, so the necessary exceptions will need to be managed by the user.
- I have tested UCT extensively and am confident it works solidly. Having said so, that applies to my hardware running Ubuntu 10.10, so (although unlikely) you may experience a different behavior under different hardware/distro combinations.
I created UCT for my own use, but of course I would be glad if it would help others as well. Therefore, I encourage everybody to give it a go and let me know their experience. Please report unexpected behavior or bugs... and if you enjoy using it, of course!
If you would like to improve UCT, I am perfectly fine with that, I would only ask you keep my name in the script credits.
Thanks for reading!
