Discussion in 'Great Skate Debate' started by reese, Aug 15, 2012.
And the much older Rockne is the one who's staying???
Hope she is ok.
What?! This is a shock! They were the most promising team in the US
WOW!! Did not see this coming. Especially her wanting to step away.
I loved her determination and spunk.
I thought they were coming along as a team quite well.
Oh my gosh.
Please let this be a nightmare.
*SIGH* And therein lies the problem with US pairs skating.
I am in a million depressions
I guess I shouldn't be surprised by another American pair breaking up, but .
Rockne might be the unluckiest U.S. male pairs skater. Ever.
NEVER saw this coming, not in a million years. They looked so improved.
The battle for US Pair #2 will be verrrrry interesting this year.
I'm speechless.
I wonder if something happened with Mary Beth. She's still so young and it seems odd to step away from the sport less than 2 years from the Olympics especially when you have a great shot at making the team. Also when you already have programs that you've competed this season.
I wonder if Rockne can get a new partner in the next 17 days and salvage his season?
Just opened facebook and saw this. Absolutely shocking. I hope she isn't hurt...
Meh - they would have been second for the next two years- which is nothing to sneeze at...Caydee and John have it locked up as much as it annoys us all
It doesn't annoy me.
Who's taking bets on his next partner being Ashley Cain?
Wouldn't Ashley be way too tall for him?
This could never work with their height similarity.
I hope they're both ok, and I wish them the best whatever they do next. I'm disappointed, because i really enjoyed seeing the progress they've made so far and I was looking forward to seeing them this year.
Besides the fact she is taller than him...?? Amanda Evora come out of retirement!
Oh no! I hope she is all right.
Not excited about D/C two-time American champions.
Rockne only has 17 days to register for Sectionals. He can't be too picky at this point. He might have to make it work. Not skating competitively before the year of the Olympics is a pretty sure bet he won't be there.
Cain would be a good selection, if she's willing.
I forgot.
In my defense, I'm home sick today.
Can we nip this talk in the bud...Rockne is Short for a male pair skater and Ashley is tall for a female pair skater...do the math!
This is crazy. I was just checking FSU one more time tonight in case anything new came up, but I was not expecting THIS!
I know I shouldn't be shocked about a US pair breaking up, but this was definitely surprising.
I wish them both all the best.
Isn't there any leeway from USFS? I mean, he's a two time national champion and his partnership ended abruptly right before the season started. It's not unthinkable that he could find a good partner and still do Nationals with some kind of buy for members of split teams who would have had a buy based on last year's results, or some such, but having that be a person he finds by the end of this month is unreasonable.

Kim Demmings became the 19th Raider to reach 1000 points and hit the game-winning layup with 6.3 seconds left to give the Wright State women's basketball team a dramatic 67-66 Horizon League win over Valparaiso Thursday night at WSU's Nutter Center.
WSU led the entire first half, going up as much as 26-13 on an Ivory James jumper with 5:53 remaining before taking a 31-23 halftime advantage on a Demmings three in the final seconds.
The margin was 50-39 on two KC Elkins free throws with 9:57 left, but the Crusaders stormed back with 11 unanswered points, six of those coming from Charae Richardson, to tie it at the 7:45 mark. The Raiders later went back up five at 62-57 on an Elkins three, only to see Valparaiso again tie it at 62 at the 1:57 mark on a Jessi Wiedemann three.
Valpo tallied four straight points, the final two being a Shaquira Scott jumper with 21.2 seconds remaining, to go up 66-65, but that set the stage for Demmings, who spun away from her defender and converted a layup from the left side of the basket at the 6.3-second mark.
The Crusaders had one final chance, but Scott could not connect on a jumper as time expired.
Wright State shot just 31 percent for the game, including 10 of 37 from three-point range, while Valparaiso shot 54 percent in the second half to end up at 44 percent. The Crusaders hit 13 of 17 foul shots compared to seven of 10 for the Raiders, but WSU forced Valpo into 16 turnovers while committing only seven, resulting in a 15-5 differential in points off of turnovers.
Demmings hit a jumper at the 5:55 mark to reach the 1000-point plateau, becoming the 19th Raider to do so, and now has 1006 points in 54 career games. She joins Tiffany Webb as the only two WSU players to reach the milestone as sophomores, Webb needing 52 games to accomplish the feat.
Demmings finished with 23 points to lead all scorers while Elkins had 17, James 13 off the bench and Breanna Stucke 11 for Wright State. Stucke and Tayler Stanton each had nine rebounds.
Tabitha Gerardot paced Valparaiso (7-12, 2-4 Horizon) with a double-double of 18 points and 10 rebounds whie Richardson had 17. Gina Lange chipped in 11 boards.
Wright State (10-10, 4-3 Horizon) concludes the four-game homestand on Sunday, February 3, as the Raiders host Youngstown State at 3:00.

Light microscopes may be familiar to you from biology classes.
Light microscopes can magnify an object up to 1,000 times. Good light microscopes are powerful enough to view most algae, fungi, and protozoa.
High-quality light microscopes (pictured right) generally allow viewing of bacterial cells, too. They can't view viruses, however, as these tiny objects are smaller than a wavelength of visible light (about 0.2 microns). Nor can they readily allow scientists to examine individual tiny parts of cells in detail.To view extremely tiny objects, scientist use electron microscopes.

Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
Good advice that I dont disagree on at all. I ended up getting a tartan 30 that is sitting right in the slip I intend to keep her. The current owner just put up the mast yesterday and I am out of town. Will be paying what I own him sometime this week. It is a tiller steer. I am mostly nervous about docking her on the way back in. I will probably just motor around the first time out to get used to stopping distances etc... It does look like alot of boat compared to my h18. Gotta start somewhere/sometime.
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
I don't know if this trip has happened yet, but I will chime in and say you should have another hand on board for this trip. It sounds like challenging waters in a new to you and unknown older boat. Even if you have more experience I would suggest crew for this trip.

If you are going to do it solo you should spend a few days sailing with the previous owner onboard "single handing" while he watches. It would be much better realizing what skills you lack with someone else onboard rather than enroute solo.
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
Port Sanilac and Lexington are both good stops on the West side of Lake Huron. The Saint Clair River splits into 3 channels at the delta north of Lake St. Clair. Pick the one you want, before you get there. Probably the North Channel.
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
Have made that trip in my C&C 29. Just a few places to bail out on the Michigan shore. Center of lake has some freighter traffic so watch out. Pick your weather window wisely and do it in 1 stop. When looking at weather windows look for a stalled out weak high pressure system over the Great Lakes. It pretty much guarantees light wind and fair conditions for a couple of days. Don't even think of going in to Harbor Beach unless you use the south entrance. The Michigan shoreline has a lot of boulders so don't get any closer than a mile and half.
Boat probably has a Yanmar diesel. Have it checked out, fortunately they are pretty bullet proof. You should be able to motor in moderate conditions at 6 knots all day long. I strongly suggest you take another crew. A lot of things can go wrong with a boat new to you. Clogged filters on the diesel are pretty common for a boat that has sat for a while. Make sure you have a spare Racor filter and the secondary filter spare. Know how to change the filters. Also you want to know how to bleed the fuel lines. Take a small container of diesel fuel. If the filters clog and the system runs dry you will need it to prime the system. The mechanical manual pump on the Yanmar really doesn't get it done.
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
1. It's not 100 miles from Bay City to Lake St Clair-- it's almost twice that if you have no upwind work.
2. Don't use this as your shakedown cruise. Use the boat a few days to make sure everything works. There's a 2-4 knot current in the St Clair River with a lot of freighter traffic. You need to know your engine is reliable and be comfortable handling an emergency (ie, your engine dies, the current is carrying you at 3 knots-- where's the anchor, does it work, where's the nearest marina for repairs?)
3. You won't do any sailing once you enter the St Clair River. You might keep your main up for the appearance of motor sailing, but for the most part it's a waste of time- you'll just flog the main and risk gybing at just the wrong moment.
4. Fine to do it yourself once you're used to the boat-- I do the trip every few years. Until then, have another set of eyes and hands.
5. I would recommend not being on the river after dark. The freighters know where they're going and they go fast. Plan your trip so you enter and leave the river during daylight (easy to do- you'll do 7+ knots with the current going down the river. Stay in Port Huron or Sarnia for the night and leave the next morning).
6. Study the charts ahead of time and know your waypoints. The river can be confusing the first time.
7. There aren't a lot of good harbors down the west coast of Lake Huron south of Saginaw Bay. Harbor Beach is probably the best. That means if the sh!t hits the fan, you don't have a lot of bail-out points. All the more reason to make sure your boat is in good operating condition before heading off on this trip.
Despite all the above, go for it once you're sure the boat is in good working order. It's a nice trip.
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
Done the trip a couple of time from the strights down to lake erie , only problem in the st clare river is a spot that opens up wide & if you dont follow the channel markers you end up on the rocks in the middle. You are probably better off with atleast one other person on board. If the boat is set up for single handed one person could do it (why motor its a sailboat).
check your private messages
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
Fill everything, fuel, water, FRIDGE. drop the mooring lines and go. If you do feel the need to have a friend along then enjoy their company. But my choice would be to go it alone, It will be a great way to get to know your new girl and yourself.
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
take some time to learn the boat and make sure it works OK. You can make it yourself if you watch the weather, but it would be more fun with a partner and when the stuff hits the fan you have someone to help.
If you take katsailor and go through the dreaded straits of Mackinac you are going the WRONG WAY! Plan on 4 days of travel and if you arrive early great.
Good Luck
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
I purchased my 1976 Pearson 28 in Houston and after a few days doing repairs and checkouts, sailed it solo to Corpus Christi via the ICW. I don't know your waters, but if you decide to motor all the way and have a P28-1 then you are going to be on the tiller the entire distance unless you have an autopilot or are gifted with the tiller tamer. I had to manage a narrow water way with heavy barge traffic, swing bridges, and locks, as well as open bays. I spent two nights on the hook and one in a marina. I had charts, depth, log, vhf and hand held gps. And I sailed most of the way, even in the ICW, even while passing barges. You now have two P28 owners telling you how they did it, so you know it can be done.
Good luck with whatever you decide and enjoy your boat. It is robust and simple. Unless it has been heavily modified you should be able to handle it well with great ease.
By the way, the helm balances nicely when the sails are eased and you won't have to be a slave to the tiller if you sail.
Re: Can I make this trip as a novice
I'd do it myself. I wouldn't take anyone along.
It's like any new toy, I want to sit down pull the wrapping off myself, quietly read the instructions and put it together... All by myself.
I feel I learn more, learn at my own pace, and don't feel like a dork in front of someone else.
Then off I'd putter on the motor, till I get too excited and have to start playing with the sails etc.
I'd probably have intentions to make them short days... But prolly wouldn't anchor till near dark.
Also prolly make a few mistakes, but I'm alone on my boat and I'll make whatever mistakes i want
So my advice is to go play with your own new toy yourself. You will learn more and have much much more fun!
PS If you sink it's only a river, you can swim ashore.
PPS in case you don't sink take a bottle of wine or a few beers to have one night along the way!

So I've been doing a lot of research and there's enough stuff on the internet dealing with teaching children how to speak and listen and even read to some extent. But what about writing? At what age do teacher's start teaching writing/spelling? Have any of you had experience with this? How did you go about it? I heard somewhere that teaching the alphabet is pointless because English isn't a phonetic language.
Just after some more insight.

By Rob Kelly
Ciara Grant admits it will be a special moment when she becomes the first woman to reach 100 caps for the ireland national team.
The Arsenal defender is expected to reach the landmark in Ireland's UEFA Women's Championship qualifier against Scotland on April 5.
Grant finds it hard to believe she has reached three figures and says her family are immensely proud of her achievement.
"It is a great honour to play for your country, but to reach 100 caps is even better," she told Arsenal.com. "To be the first Irish player to reach the landmark is really special - I'm very happy.
"My Mum and Dad are coming to Edinburgh to watch the game and they're very proud. My family have been great down the years, my parents have travelled all over the place to watch me play and they still come to England now to see my Arsenal games.
"I have two brothers and I think they get quite a bit of slagging with people saying, 'You're sister is better than you at football'! My family have been very supportive and I'm really thankful for that."
Grant admits it is strange to look back on her debut for Ireland in 1996 and think about how far she has come.
"My first cap was against the Faroe Islands in Dublin and all I remember is that I was on the bench and one of my old team-mates from my club in Ireland, Siobhan Furlong, got injured," she said.
"I didn't even have a chance to warm up - I was just sitting there and suddenly someone was pulling my tracksuit trousers off and I was told I was going on! I didn't have any time to get nervous.
"It was a long, long time ago but I have been quite lucky in that I have always been in and around the Irish team. I've managed to stay in there down the years, so I must have been doing something right."
Grant says much has changed since her debut - but it has been for the best.
"We get better looked after now," she said. "When I started, we had our training camps in Dublin and, being from Waterford, some of us had to stay at a FAI delegate's house.
"All the country girls that used to come up would stay there, so there would be 10 or 12 of us sleeping on his floor just for a training weekend. Now we stay in hotels and we're properly looked after.
"Things have also changed in the sense that the squad is getting stronger as well, the girls are probably younger when they start playing football so we have some good players coming through."
Grant will savour every moment as she completes her century and already has her sights on a new target.
"If I was young enough I'd say I'd like to reach 200 caps, but that's never going to happen!" she smiled. "With the Irish team, the next thing I'd like to do is help us qualify for a major finals. That would be great."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
Didn't see anyone else with this but you did remember to put the centerboard/daggerboard down didn't you?
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
Ballast in a dinghy is important too. Move to the low (leeward) side of the boat just before you start the tack. This will start the boat turning into the wind. Then move the rudder AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE so that speed is maintained. The boat's track through the water should look like an "S", not a "Z". If you have crew, have him ease the jib slightly as move to the low side, then allow it to backwind for a time (less for more wind) with sheet in hand, uncleated, before allowing it to move to the new tack.
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
Quib Quib,
the accepted slang for the above, if you want to sound cool, is "pinching" versus "footing". The happy medium, of course is in between these two, it's a narrow "sweet spot" indeed, that's why close-hauled/beating is the most challenging point of sail, on the other points the sweet spot is pretty wide.
Often we will "foot off" a little just before the tack, as the extra fwd momentum will outweigh the slightly wider turn you have to make to get her around. Then right after the tack, you'll foot a little to get some speed, and good airflow over your sails, then "harden up" a little to point higher once you're moving. Sort of like shifting from low gear to high.
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
The "pointing too high" problem is something that took me a little while too, not to mention the fact that you'll often reach your destination faster by bearing off a little and building up/preserving boat speed. It was sailing a beach cat that really brought it home early on as they can't point worth buggery!
A good article I've found discussing "velocity made good" (or VMG) can be found here if you're looking for some details.
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
Hey thanks everyone. Great replies! I also talked offline to some of my sailing mentors and this is what they said as well:
1. Be sure your jib is inside the shrouds not outside.
2. A 45 degree point is considered average and I would feel good with that.
3. Sitting on the rails, or using a hiking strap, or moving your crew weight forward toward the keel box will help with point.
4. Old blown sails can affect point but yours looked pretty good to me.
5. Sometimes you can move faster with less point and more angle. The guy with more point can sometimes actually be moving slower though he has better point angle. That means you can arrive at your destination faster or at least at the same time as the other guy. In other words a good point doesn't always mean more speed. My Sovereign could make a 39 degree point if I made rig adjustments including mast bend) but she sailed faster at 45 degrees. Fancy racing boats (a J-24 for example) can move fast with a narrow point but they have to have a myriad of rigging adjustments to pull it off, hull design and keel design. Very good point with very good speed often means poor sailing comfort
I know for sure that I was trying to sail much to close to the wind. I am going to stick with a 45 to 50 degree angle next time.
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
Good advice from Tom. Backing the jib gets you around in light air and chop -- but it can cause trouble in heavy air unless you have really quick crew on the sheets who can blow & re-sheet in about half a second. You do NOT want a 17kt wind to yank your bows to leeward & get caught beam-to-wind on the new tack.
Our Bucc 18 can be tricky to tack thru in strong winds, esp. with any chop. Bows are the tallest part of the boat, and one wave can knock you back out of the tack or stall you in irons. Coming up to a tack, we crack the mainsheet, fall off a few degrees to pick up speed, then leave the main sheeted out as we choose a flat spot between waves. Crew should have both jib sheets in hand, if crew you have; if not, keep them both draped across one thigh.
We really snap the boat into the tack; you ain't 'shooting' very far on a crew-ballast boat. Crew should wait, wait, wait, until the boat passes thru the eye of the wind, then bail off the rail or bench and get across FAST. Helm may want to stay low side for a couple more seconds. Or you get helm across first and crew can stay on the new low side to cleat the jib, tho on all dinghies I've sailed, jib trimming is easy from the opposite rail. Anyhow, putting both people across at once risks rolling the boat back to windward & knocking the air out of your sails. (In v. strong winds, go earlier & go together.)
You should end up on a close reach, new tack. Jib sheeted home for power, and as the bow starts to dig in, helm sheets the mainsail back to close hauled as his/her bottom hits the rail -- which will bring your nose back up to it correct heading and really give the boat a kick in the fanny. It's like roll-throttling a motorcycle out of a corner. Racers don't like to oversteer cuz it loses them ground, but for singlehanders on a daysail, going close-reach to close-reach gives you more time to do what needs doing before powering on.
Marking close-hauled positions on your jib & mainsheets is good practice & lets you pre-set things before power comes on on the new tack. Sharpie permanent markers work well.
& some day, in light winds, try sailing backwards, manually backing the sails, spinning circles with the rudder and without, steering the boat by moving around the cockpit ... whatever occurs to you. Think it, do it.
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
Yeah, speed before the tack is what you need. Sounds like you're running out of forward momentum before you get head-to-wind. Get up to close-hauled, get comfortable, then jam the tiller over and keep it there. The Widgeon's at least lukewarm if not a "hot" boat, she should come around.
You could head up then back the jib, but wouldn't recommend that in 17 knots, in 5-10 it'd be okay.
But you shouldn't need to. Get pointing high but footing fast, so you only have to turn 90-100 degrees. Make sure you get the jib in quick after the tack--it, not the main, is what gets your acceleration started.
In light air, learn to "roll tack", where you/crew stay on the "old' side a little longer before crossing over to the new windward side. This "pulls" the sails/mast over onto the new tack more quickly, and minimizes your luffing/no propulsion time during the tack. Watch the college racers do this, it seems their sails (at least the main anyway) go form full on old tack to full on new tack without any luffing. It's cool, and fast.
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
I don't get the "bringing the main in, then turn" part. Aren't you beginning the tack from close hauled? You should begin the tack from the highest point of sail that gives decent speed.
I remember that my Wayfarer (sloop centreboard daysailer) would be pretty much stopped after a tack. So for a short time the rudder is doing nothing, and the jib and main sheets are doing the steering (or their relative trim, to be precise).
What I found worked best is to uncleat the old jib sheet as the rudder goes over and begin the tack with the new sheet in my hand. Cleat it for the new tack as you come through the wind. That way as you come onto the new tack, both sails are properly trimmed and the boat will set itself up for the new tack and accelerate away in the proper direction until the rudder takes effect.
I also found that a slow, gentle tack was better, rather than throwing the rudder over. The slowness allows you to time the sheets correctly and thus keep good directional control.
Dinghy sailing - tacking
What you need is speed and the momentum that gets you to make the turn without any driving force from the wind. So you may need to fall off the wind to build speed right before the tack. I've just started sailing a small dinghy myself, and it is so much more difficult than the bigger boats I have always sailed.
Gary H Lucas
Re: Dinghy sailing - tacking
Sounds like the wind was hitting you on the nose and the channel too narrow to tack and make any forward progress. You need to sheet in tight to point as high as you can, dagger/centerboard needs to be down also. Other than that don't know what else you do. Admit defeat and break out the trolling motor

Neoprene bearing pads are commonly used in bridges due to their durability, simple details, and maintenance-free qualities. Neoprene pads are a subset of elastomeric bearings that includes both neoprene and natural rubber pads. First fabricated in the 1930s, their use was not widespread until the 1950s when laminated neoprene pads were introduced. In 1958, the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials published the first formal specification for elastomeric bearings, and their popularity grew.
Neoprene pads are idea for short- and medium-span bridges with low to moderate vertical reactions and normal movement and rotation demands.
Two types of neoprene pads are commonly used in bridge construction. Plain pads are molded, cut, or extruded pieces of neoprene. Laminated bearings are made of alternating layers of neoprene and steel vulcanized together during the fabrication process. The shape of pads used varies according to bridge movement. Rectangular pads suit applications in which movements and/or rotations occur in only one direction, while structures with movements and/or rotations in two directions warrant circular pads.
Neoprene bearings must facilitate three functions: support dead and live loads, permit longitudinal movements, and accommodate girder rotations.
Load support is controlled by limiting compressive stress. Neoprene is an incompressible material, and vertical strain of the pad results in lateral displacement of the elastomer. Therefore, compressive deflection of the pad is controlled by limiting the thickness of the elastomer layers. As layers become thinner, lateral displacement from compression of the elastomer is reduced.
The shape factor—defined as the elastomer layer plan area divided by the perimeter area—is important in the design of neoprene bearings because compression is carried by shear stress in the elastomer and adds to that stress due to horizontal loads. Thinner elastomer layers and a larger shape factor allow laminated pads to support larger loads and movements than plain pads. Also, compressive deflection of rectangular pads exceeds that of circular pads with the same area and shape factors because the corners of rectangular pads are poorly confined and support little load.
Neoprene pads permit horizontal movement through shear deformation of the elastomer. As horizontal movements increase, the elastomer stiffens. To allow larger movements, the height of the pad or thickness of the elastomer is increased.
Anchorage is another important factor. Depending on the applied loads present, the shear force in the elastomer may exceed the friction force between the bearing and beam, and the beam will slip relative to the pad.
Rotation increases the compressive stress at one edge of the pad and decreases the compressive stress at the other. When anticipating large rotations, the designer must ensure that uplift due to rotation is not greater than the compressive force of the pad. One way to minimize this effect is to ensure the pad is as short as practical in the direction of rotation.
Neoprene pads have numerous advantages over mechanical bearings. They provide functional simplicity because the pads allow movements without any internal moving parts, and they allow multi-directional movement as compared to the uni-directional movement permitted by other bearings. Neoprene pads are easier to detail and fabricate than bearing types that require fabrication from individual parts. Furthermore, neoprene pads provide consistent performance without significant maintenance activities.
Neoprene pads are not the answer for every project. Their compressive stress limits eliminate them from consideration for bridges with large reactions. Also, neoprene pads are capable of limited longitudinal and rotational movements unless other measures are provided to alleviate the stresses in the pads.

Laurent Koscielny has everything he needs to be a Premier League success, according to one of French football's hottest properties.
Kevin Gameiro played alongside the Arsenal centre back at Lorient before Koscielny left for Emirates Stadium last summer. Gameiro has since moved to PSG and is set for a reunion with his old team-mate when the French side arrive in London for this weekend's Emirates Cup.
Koscielny established himself in the Arsenal back four in the absence of the injured Thomas Vermaelen last season and Gameiro rates the defender highly - as well as one or two other familiar faces.
"Laurent and I played together at Lorient before he left for Arsenal," Gameiro told the Official Matchday Programme.
"I was not surprised to see him doing very well for the Gunners. He is a very good defender, solid and serious and he has everything it takes to succeed at Emirates Stadium.
"I have also played together with Abou Diaby, Bacary Sagna and Samir Nasri and we got on really well. They are a good bunch of lads."
Gameiro, a lifelong PSG fan, secured his move to the upwardly-mobile Emirates Cup contenders this summer after scoring 22 times in Ligue 1 last season and netting on his international debut for France.
He won't get a chance to test himself against Koscielny - PSG and Arsenal will not meet at the Emirates Cup - but Gameiro is relishing the prospect of facing New York Red Bulls striker Thierry Henry.
"Thierry is simply the best French striker ever and one of the best in the world," he said. "He is an example for all of us.
"I expect the stadium will be supporting him, and playing against him and New York will be a great experience. However, we are not coming here as tourists. This tournament is the finishing touch of our pre-season preparations before the start of the league so it will be very important for us."
The 76-page Emirates Cup souvenir programme contains interviews with eight players (two from each team), Arsène Wenger and a host of other features. It will be available to buy on both days of the tournament, from club shops and programme sellers, priced at £5.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

California one step closer to building nation's first bullet train
SACRAMENTO, Calif. - The California High-Speed Rail Authority has voted to issue nearly $8.6 billion in taxpayer-approved bonds to build the nation's first bullet train. Officials say they will try to sell $3.7 billion of the bonds as the state rushes to begin construction this summer.
The six-member board approved the step on a 5-0 vote Monday, without debate. It previously sold $400 million worth of bonds.
Gov. Jerry Brown's administration will work with the state treasurer to issue the bonds, which would be matched with $3.3 billion in federal money.
The first full segment of the $68 billion rail line will run from Madera to Bakersfield. The project eventually is supposed to link northern and southern California with trains traveling up to 220 mph.

sbc question
i just freshened up a 350 and installed. at first i had trouble starting it (180 out). i broke the cam in then adjusted the rocker arms. when i finished and went for a drive there was still one ticking so i went back over a few times to see if i was missing something and could not find the one to be ticking but couldnt find anything. so i changed the pushrods and rocker arms they looked a little worn out. when i tried to start it. it would crank over but nothing. geting fire and fuel.tomorrow im going to give it a tune up. plugs and wires. i installed new plugs but looke fouled. the engine smokes a little bit could that be fouling the plugs. is there any thing to fix this for sure if that is the problem(msd maybe)

Confused new guy
hey guys ive been reading a few of the threads here. Recently ive decided to take up archery however i live in a country where it isnt as developed as otherwise.
I saw somewhere someone advised another beginner to actually get a feel of the new bow you desire b4 you actually buy it. In my case there arnt bows selling in shops locally, I would most likely have to order it online. Is it possible for me to find a suitable bow without actually having physical contact with it prior to purchase?
I kinda like the compound bows alot, im almost 21 and i dont want something thats too under my age but i dont want something too advanced either any suggestions?

Where do you live?
When you say that you like the compounds...Have you shot any?
You say that you do not have any local shops....This could be an issue with purchasing a bow sight unseen. But, it is a doable thing.
If you do not have access to a bow mechanic, you will need to be able to work on your own bow.
All that said...what are you wanting to do with your new bow?Take a kid with you. Show them the Great Outdoors. Pass it on.
New Bow
Some basic info will help.
I really like the Bowtech and the two mods they come with. Fast or smooth. The draw length will be a bit tricky, but we can get you close.
Where are you from? I assume you are looking for a hunting bow?
If we can't find a place near you, you will have to buy some sort of "press" and learn to work on the bow yourself. Lets cross that bridge when we need too.Keith

do a search here on Hotrodders for posts by 50bowTie, there is some info about his propane tank- kitty litter dryer.
kitty litter
somewhere on the net I read about making a desicant dryer out of an old obsolete 5 gallon propane tank and filling it with kitty litter. I did about $ 100 damage to my plasma cutter tips when moisture hit the hot tips. I have welded one up but haven't put everything together, I plan on first manually draining my 50 gallon air tank. It does also have an auto drain but just to be sure I manually check it first. then run air thru the kitty litter, then thru a motor guard filter then a clear plastic water trap that changes color when loaded with moisture then to the paint filter regulater combo. I have all the parts now, just have to build a roll around cart with all the pieces mounted.
|Part of your problem is all that rubber hose. Gives to many places for water to build up then come out in one big shot. Try to plum it into some steel or copper line. If you have and old drive shaft and are a good welder. Mount it up right, put a petcock in the bottom, put a fitting about half way up for air in,then a fitting at the top for air out. Put your water traps on the air out side. I like the water filter that takes a paper roll just before my hose to the gun.

To make a long story short...the OP wants to paint his whole car. The compressor he has puts out an advertised 9 CFM (under optimum conditions. The average spray gun will take between 12 and 14 CFM. He has a max of 15 gallon holding capacity. Even if he could spray panels, a complete with the set up he has or any other setup will result in failure due to overheating the compressor head and moisture will come into play. Small items, the odd panel, not a problem, but his complete car...no.
Remember, he asked about how to get rid of moisture...so it must be a problem today...the problems will only get bigger the larger the area is that he is attempting to paint. As I mentioned, I don't know of a dryer out there (within $ Value) that can remove the moisture he's experiencing. The copper line/Still method will remove a good deal of moisture however, would I want to spend all that money on material and have it go to waste because 1/2 way through the job the compressor spits out water?
|Thats a good solution Old Fool for an inexpension fix, but I would still suggest an air dryer to get some of the moisture that didn't condense.
|Old Fool
Big misunderstanding is tank size, IF the compressor can not make more air than the device attached to the end of the hose uses the compressor will run continuously. Only thing a second tank will do is act as an air receiver and let the air slow down in that area, less velocity will give the air a few more moments to let moisture drop out.
Best advice I can give you is to get a spray gun that uses less air than most.
2nd: make a portable cooler for your "system". Buy a coil of 1/2" copper and pull it out like a slinky. Make its overall end to end dimension just less than a 55 gallon drum.
Connect your air compressor to the copper tubing at the top of the plastic drum.
Run the other end of the tubing thru a bulkhead fitting at the bottom of the drum. After the bulkhead fitting install a tee, put the bullhead of the tee on the line coming from the bulkhead and put the tee in a vertical position. run a float type drain off the bottom of the tee, and run your air hose up at least as high as the rim of the barrel. Fill the barrel with water, allow a small flow of water to overflow if your water isn't nice and cold .
|Thanks for the ideas, Daniel your setup gives me some ideas and the pictures were great thanks. I will try just spraying air thru the gun and see what happens probably this weekend. Thanks again
I have painted panels with this air compressor,
It is only a three HP compressor.
It dumps into this tank.
And I use this gun.
The compressor has a 20 gallon tank, and so is the red tank. What I do is run the second tank at about 40 psi, using the regulator on the compressor.
What happens is when the air expands, going through the regulator, it cools some, and its volume increases. Remember, your HVLP gun does not need high presssure. While painting, my compressor does cycle on, and off.
I live in Oregon. We do not have the humidity you have in Florida. My tanks are bigger.
You might try try setting up a system similar to mine, and see what happens if you just spray air, without paint in your gun. Spend a half hour, just spraying air, and see if you get any water condensing at your gun.
However, that is no guarantee you will not get water spots. The solvent in the paint evaporating just after it leaves the gun tip does cool the air some more, and condensation could happen then.
|69 widetrack
I'm sorry to bearer of bad news but 10 gallons added on is not going to give you enough holding capacity to paint a car, the smallest amount of holding capacity for painting a car is around 60 gallons (and I think that's pushing it, the minimum I prefer is 80 gallons)...The advertised CFM out put is 9 CFM...your average paint gun will take 1 1/2 times that much CFM or more...so, in short...your compressor won't produce enough CFM to keep up with a paint gun let alone the storage capacity required so your compressor isn't running the whole time your painting.
|What if i was to add a 10 gallon reserve tank, i have an old 10 gallon that the motor quit working on, I really need to make this work as buying another compressor isn't in the budget
Width 18.1"
PSI Range 116-145
Control Panel Baseplate
Regulator Size 3/8"
Oil Level Sight Glass Oversized
Oil Level Indicator Sight Glass
Crankcase Breather Metal
Engine Throttle Control Pneumatic
Actual Weight 144 lbs
Length 42.1"
Height 24.4"
That is not large enough compressor to paint car, you might do a panel and that's about it. I have water trap after 50ft of hose and then another dissicant filter right at the gun.
|69 widetrack
By the looks of the compressor, you don't have a large enough holding tank to paint a car...how many CFM are they advertising when the compressor is running. The reason you may be getting moisture is because the holding tanks are so small that the compressor is constantly running and developing heat...the heat when cooling will cause the moisture to condense and turning into water. If you paint your car with that compressor, I don't know of any desiccant dryer that would keep up with removing the moisture, let alone the compressor keeping up with the air supply needed to paint.
compressor moisture help
I have a gas powered air compressor and would like to use it to paint my car, i like and use this compressor because it is portable and recovers super fast, but i do get alot of moisture, which dryer would be the best to use so i get no moisture in my primer and paint. i have read some posts but most pertain to hard piping installed in shops and this doesn't really apply to me. below is the link to my compressor

'Carolina's Bryan Allen goes off for interference at 18:59 of the first period when he catches Jason Pominville with a questionable hit at center ice. Early in the Buffalo power play, Marc-Andre Gragnani steps over the Carolina blueline and wraps the puck around the boards. When the puck jumps over Thomas Vanek's stick at the blueline, Brandon Sutter picks it up and outhustles both Vanek and Christian Ehrhoff before firing a wrist shot past Ryan Miller. The shorthanded goal gives the Canes a 3-2 lead with just 12 seconds left in the first period, and the Sabres never seem to recover. "To give up that goal late in the period, that was a tough one for us," said Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff.'

By Chris Harris
Wojciech Szczesny thinks it's too soon to say that Arsenal have turned the corner.
It's been a productive week for Arsène Wenger's side thanks to an emphatic north London derby win over Tottenham and a 2-0 victory over Montpellier that secured a place in the knockout stage of the Champions League.
Arsenal had gone three games without a win prior to the visit of Spurs but Szczesny is not getting carried away by back-to-back wins with tough trips to Aston Villa and Everton on the horizon.
"We have only had a couple of good results," he said. "We want to get a longer run of good results and good performances and then we can start talking about the real Arsenal.
"At the moment we've got the momentum we just want to keep it going now. We want to show in our performances how good we are.
"You have your ups and downs and we had a tough couple of weeks recently. But we came back stronger than ever against Tottenham on Saturday. We want to enjoy that moment for as long as we can. It's normal that we have ups and downs."
Arsenal have reached the last 16 of the Champions League for the 13th consecutive season but Szczesny is not surprised that Wenger's team has flourished while Manchester City and Chelsea have struggled.
"I would have thought we would have done well!" he said. "Arsenal have qualified for the last 16 every year for the last few years.
"I don't think us qualifying is a surprise. I think Chelsea and City not doing as well is a massive surprise but at the moment we're just enjoying getting through."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Discussion in 'March 2007' started by Dlev59, Feb 24, 2007.
Chat is open!!! http://www.pistonsforum.com/misc.php?do=flashchat
That was a horrible half. Shaq just dominated us Hopefully something happens here becuase the Pistons are playing horribly and these annoucers are starting to piss me off with their Miami Heat and Shaq love.
Defense sucks tonight. What is the deal?? When the p's get time off they get lazy or did they just underestimate the team. national tv too.
Great games from Dice and Flip, good ones from Tayshaun and Rip.
Definitely not a pretty game for the Pistons. They just dug a hole too deep in the first half and then they expect to turn it on in the 4th quarter. Flip just doesn't play his pieces right and last minute heroics aside the Pistons got beat like a rented mule tonight. Shaq had a season high game tonight and even Walker looked like an All-Star. The Pistons are going to see Miami again in the playoffs so they'll have to figure out how to beat this team with or without DWade. So has Flip Murray been deactivated since SuperDupe was in on the last play of the game tonight?
I turned the game off after the Pistons played one of their worst quarters of the season in the second quarter, but I guess they turned things right back around in the third. They took the lead with a couple of minutes left, but the execution just wasn't there in the last minute or so, and Shaq got the benefit of a couple of calls to put the Heat back on top. The Pistons almost got a miracle finish to send it to OT as Payton threw one of the worst inbounds passes of all time in the last 10 seconds, but they couldn't get a desperation 3 to drop. This one was lost in that catastrophic second quarter, but having showed some heart in getting back in it, hopefully they can keep that going and right the ship again starting at Memphis tomorrow night.
Those announcers were annoying as hell. We held them to 85 points even when Shaq had his best game of the year. Why were the announcers so hung up on our defense? They think we would have kept them in the 70's if we would have doubled Shaq? Maybe their 16% 3-point shooting had to do with the fact that they were being contested. If Chauncey wouldn't have been so ice-cold, we would have beat them on the road.
Pistons always manage to look bad after a lay-off.
Well we gave the Heat and Wade confidence that they can beat us come playoff time. Yeah they were missing Wade and maybe the presence of a healthy Sheed would have slowed Shaq's first half assault, but the Pistons looked like they were back in game six of last years EC finals during that second qtr. You can probably trace back and find that 10 of the Pistons 20 losses were due to plenty of uninspired second qtrs . Of course it didn't help that the EC playa of the month CB was 0-10 from the field at one stretch and even though Rip got hot in the third, he was 7-22. It was nice that we took the lead briefly so we weren't totally outclassed, some of our fans folded the tent, but apparently the players didn't. Both teams combined for a porous 5 of 40 from beyond the 3 pt arc. With Tay hitting our ONLY three of the game, he should have taken that last three at the end. He probably should have either tried to go around Shaq or stop and pop that jumper with a minute left in the game instead of running over him. That was the key play down the stretch as walker hits the three on the other end to take the lead.
I'm Davis, Nazr, and Maxiell provided the "strength" "finesse" and "quickness" tonight. I would say "rust" "rust" and "rust".
The first 2 Qs the Heat couldn't miss and we jittery. 3rd Q the ball bounched our way and we got back in the game. Big 3s from Walker kept them in the game.
That 85 points that we held them too was only the second time all season that we have been beaten by a team that scored less than 89 points. Which means that a 10 spot by Sheed would have been a victory tonight. Oh well the defense is working ...some time anyway. We'll get them tomorrow night.
Tay drives to the hoop, Shaq clearly moves, kind of a jump step to get in front of Tay, then all 350 pounds of him flops like a mound of jello to the floor! And the refs call an offensive foul!!!! Now that one play doesn`t make the game, but that was a terrible call.........
Yep, good comeback stalled by the refs. Calls this bad are what lead many many fans to quit watching the NBA, calling it just a tiny step up from the WWF. That totally bogus call on Tay's drive, where Shaq was clear as day inside the circle, was just the start. What did we learn from this game? Well, Dale Davis can't guard Shaq, but he does as good a job as anyone we have. Webber did not do that bad either. Mohammed is a joke as Shaq just pushes him out of the way with no effort at all. CB had a truly horrible game. Its not just that he missed his first 10 shots, hey, we were suppose to be going inside against Shaq to try to get him in foul trouble. One for 14 from the 3 line. Just think. We shorten those shots up, and make just two of them, we win this one. (That is, if the refs did not decide to go even more nuts.) Bad job by CB running the team, and a terrible coaching job by Flip. Pretty much anyone could have decided to play JMAX and Dale Davis together in this one. We needed defense badly, and that is our best interior defense combo. No Sheed. Both JMAX and Dale did play, yet this very good combo never happened. Pretty much a planned failure on Flip's part. Dyess was awesome, never missing a shot and getting 17 and 10. Tay and Rip both got over 20. Good comeback try by the Pistons even though we lost. At least Miami can't walk away from this one with any dignity. Without the refs siding with them, they lose this game to the Pistons after getting a 22 point lead. Delfino not scoring is not the problem. Flip Saunders refusing to let Delfino do what he does best, handle the ball for us, is the problem. In this game, Hunter was completely useless. Delfino should have been in as the backup point and Hunter should have been a DNP. Webber firing a three, after only making 2 threes for us so far this season, was a pretty low percentage play there. Yeah, he has not took many threes either. But you can't expect something to work in the clutch that you don't even use in normal game time. Shaq was pretty much unstoppable, and Miami could have played Shaq and Mourning together if they had wanted to put it in another gear yet. Walker scored 20 for them, and that hurt, especially his inside game. Would Sheed have helped all that much. Not really. Sheed can't guard Shaq either. We simply need a better bench, something we can't have with Hunter being used as the backup point. In this game, Delfino could have been at point and JMAX or Amir Johnson at small forward. Miami could not have stopped either from scoring. This team can beat Miami, it will just take a coach who can coach.
This did look like last year's playoffs a bit, Dre. We just don't match up well with this team because of Shaq and then Wade. What bothers me is that offensive meltdown yet again against a good team. Our coach is supposed to be an offensive guy but we have no default mode in our offense when things go bad. And bad means that a team knows how to jam up our shooters. Then, Rip and Chauncey try and drive (not their best game). Worse, they go all the way in and get blocked like Rip did against Mourning instead of taking the short gimme. When we get in trouble, we just look lost on offense. We couldn't go to Webber in the middle as Sheed was out. He is our insurance against the drought. And then, no Sheed down low. Still, the Pistons did show Miami what they are really up against later. I don't like the zone at the end. We gave up that open look to Walker which he would not have gotten on the man to man.
Sprocket sez… Welcome to game seven of the 2006 Eastern Conference Finals. It starts like it ended back in June of last year with Shaq running rampant and the Pistons unable to throw the ball down and hit the floor. It ends unfortunately for Detroit with poor decision making and missed shots that doom an amazing comeback from nineteen down at the half that sees the Pistons take their first lead of the game in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter. The game starts ugly with the Pistons missing seven of their first eight shots. Dale Davis starting in place of the injured Rasheed Wallace looks like a skinny kid as he bounces off Shaq again and again. Shaq gets everything he wants in the first posting up time and again right on the low block. Neither DD nor Mohammed is able to move him off the box. Despite shooting very poorly the Pistons are only down by one at the one minute mark of the quarter, but a four to nothing Heat run puts them down five at the break. Hamilton and Billups shoot two for eleven in the quarter. The Pistons toss Maxiell and Delfino into the mix in the second and gain some ground cutting the lead to three before Shaq returns around the nine minute mark. Twenty four of the Heat's first twenty-six points come in the paint. When Shaq isn't jamming, the Heat are running and getting easy baskets on the break. With Shaq back in the game, the Heat outscore the Pistons twenty-six to twelve in the remainder of the second to lead at the break fifty to thirty-one. Hamilton and Billups end the half having shot two for fifteen. Detroit's 31 points and 28% shooting in the half are season lows for any half this year. The Pistons manage just eight points in the paint to thirty-six for the Heat. The only suspense in the second half of the second quarter is whether Flip's head will actually explode on the court or whether he will manage to get into the locker room before going atomic. One halftime interval marked by the continuing idiocy of the ESPN analysts and a serious tongue lashing by Flip later, the Pistons both begin to score and begin to stop everyone in white except Shaq. The Heat manage just eleven points in the third quarter while the Pistons find life and score twenty-six. Detroit's 28% shooting in the first half goes up to 55% in the third quarter while the Heat's 54% first half falls to 25% in the third. At the break the Pistons are down by four, sixty-one to fifty-seven and a ballgame breaks out in south Florida. The fourth continues as the third, with Shaq scoring more or less at will while the remainder of the Heat can't hit anything. Billups continues to struggle, at one point shooting zero for eleven prompting Walton to observe that you've got to be really good to go zero for eleven. The Pistons take their first lead of the game at 3:14 on Prince's twenty-second (and final) point of the game. McDyess also shoots well and his seventh hoop in seven tries about the four minute mark keep the Pistons within one. Prince commits an offensive foul around the one minute mark of the fourth, only the second charge Shaq has taken all season. On the ensuing play a Walker three pulls the Heat ahead. McDyess is fouled and makes two to knot the score at 80 with 0:56 left. Walker misses, but Shaq jams the miss to put the Heat back on top, perhaps the play of the game. Hamilton misses a fairly open jumper on the next possession forcing the Pistons to foul Jason Williams at the 0:25 mark. He misses one of two, but the Pistons execute badly on the next possession with Webber making a bad pass and then missing a three. The Pistons foul Eddie Jones who hits both to make the score eight-five eighty Heat. Billups is fouled and hits both to make it a three point game with eight seconds left. Prince gets a steal on the inbounds pass and inexplicably doesn't take a wide open three but passes the ball to Billups who is heading into the lane to get into rebounding position. Billups pulls out and gets off a three but misses, and Dupree knocks the rebound out to Hamilton who misses a desperation three at the buzzer. On a night when no one can hit a three (the teams combine to shoot five for thirty-nine from three), Shaq's thirty-one points and fifteen boards are too much for the Pistons to absorb, especially when they shoot 38% for the game including 7% from three (one for fifteen). Prince and McDyess can't make up for nine for thirty-five (26%) shooting from the Pistons' guards. Somebody better be mad about this one.
we always play badly when i watch the game at the bar :( sorry guys! it was annoying watching shaq get free reign to use his body and arms with no offensive fouls called. just a jacked up game all around...what a great start to march!! D:
Hey, I resemble that remark...
Chauncey's 1 for 11 is built into the offensive system. I do not blame him. The Heat know how to play us. Jam up Billips and Hamilton and rotate quickly. Result: no open jumpers. Rip and Chauncey shoot anyway or they drive. But they don't pull up for the mid-range. They go all the way into Shaq or Mourning who are waiting there. Rip's block by Mourning in the 2nd is a case in point. We actually don't have the ball come back to Chauncey so that he would be a weapon. So he shoots on the fly and hence the low percentage in this type of game. And with typical no scoring from the bench a bad situation gets worse. In contrast, the Heat have trouble with Dyss. Neither Mourning nor Shaq want to go out on him and he can get his shot off vs. the others. What has helped is using Webber as a focal point. Then, both he and Sheed can post. Without Sheed, we couldn't use Webber that way. obviously, the Webber/Davis combo didn't work. We will be alright but we need to play smarter and actually have a game plan. Piston's in the NBA finals for the 3rd year in 4!
the pistons perfectly executed a strategy tonight. this strategy is normally used by lottery-bound teams - play just hard enough to make the game respectable, but then remember to lose at the end. well, the pistons did that tonight, bouncing miami into the #7 seed AND giving them confidence to keep winning and keeping that seed (or go even higher). if the playoffs started today, the cavs and heat would have to beat each other up in the 1st round. the way chauncey was laughing at the end of the game, you knew he was pleased. so, congratulations pistons. you exected your strategy tonight perfectly!!

Women's Soccer Hosts Senior Day Against Wright State on Saturday
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay women's soccer team will take to the pitch at Aldo Santaga Stadium one final time this season as it hosts Wright State for senior day at 1 p.m.
Seniors Ellen Joppe (Green Bay, Wis.), Ahna Logan (Roseville, Minn.), Hekla Palmadottir (Akranes, Iceland) and Renee Therrien (Winnipeg, Manitoba) will all be honored before the match for their contributions to the Phoenix women's soccer program.
GreenBayPhoenix.com caught up with the quartet to reflect on their time in Green Bay in anticipation of their final home match. Below is a brief capsule for each player:
Playing for the Phoenix over three seasons, Ellen has appeared in 22 matches, starting one match during the 2011 season. This year, Ellen has played in six matches, serving as a valuable sub in the forward line.
A four-year player for the Phoenix, Ahna has appeared in 65 games, registering seven points on three goals and an assist. A mainstay in the midfield, Ahna served as a team captain this season and has started all 14 contests. Ahna scored her first career goal against Northern Iowa her freshman season and added another goal as a sophomore against Cleveland State. Last season, Ahna registered her first career assist in a win against Northern Iowa and also netted a goal against Wright State. She will graduate this spring with a degree in human biology.
Playing in 59 career games for Green Bay, Hekla has totaled 21 points on five goals and 11 assists. Hekla has ranked among the top scorers for the Phoenix every season, including her sophomore season when she led the team with three goals and three assists. This year she is tied for the team lead with seven points and was named the Horizon League Offensive Player of the Week earlier this season after finishing the Phoenix Soccer Tournament with a goal and two assists. Hekla will graduate this spring with a dual degree in mathematics and business administration.
Renee has appeared in 59 games over four seasons for the Phoenix. Tallying one goal in her career, Renee found the back of the net against Michigan Tech last season. As a freshman, Renee played in all 16 matches and led the team with 11 shots on goal. She will graduate this spring with a degree in human biology with a minor in French.
The Phoenix is 4-7-4 overall and 1-4-0 in the Horizon League this season. The squad has not won a match since it opened the conference season with a win against Oakland on September 27. However, Green Bay is 4-2-1 at home this season where it has outscored its opponents, 8-3.
Heidi Hartmann (Plymouth, Minn.) and Palmadottir continue to stand atop the team with seven points on two goals and three assists, while Hannah Kernen (Belleville, Wis.) has a team-best three goals.
Katy Pilarzyk (Madison, Wis.) has appeared in the last two games for the Phoenix, playing the final 45:00 against Cleveland State and the entire match at Milwaukee on Wednesday. This season she has appeared in a total of seven matches with a 1.11 goals-against average and a .727 save percentage. Nastacia Behle (St. Paul, Mo.) has played in 12 games for the Phoenix, posting a 1.05 goals-against average and a .766 save percentage.
SCOUTING THE RAIDERS: Roster Schedule Stats
Wright State is 6-5-4 overall and 3-1-1 in the conference this season, currently residing in second place behind Milwaukee. The squad recently handed the Panthers their first loss of the season last Saturday, a 1-0 decision in Dayton.
Emilie Fillion leads the Raiders and is tied for the conference lead with eight goals. She also had 19 total points, tops for both the team and Horizon League. Along with Fillion, Kalee Thompson and Natalie Sedlock have three assists apiece, with the Raiders using 10 different players to assist on its 18 goals this season.
In net, Brooke McCurdy has appeared in all 15 matches for the Raiders. She currently stands second in the conference with 75 saves, a 0.99 goals-against average and five shutouts.

It is necessary to change the things, to surprise the players by preparing a light drive whereas they expect a punitive drive, or the reverse. It is always necessary to find new ways of collecting their attention."

Hello everyone,
I normally try not to bother you with questions if I think I can figure things out on my own, but I've been searching, reading forums and trying all the different solutions for hours now with no joy.
Basically my card can't seem to start in X. I've tried messing around with the different resolutions and refresh rates. Tried replacing my xorg.conf, tried VESA. Nothing worked.
I get that persistent xinit: connection reset by peer error and the (EE) Screens(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Lastly I went to the ATI site, downloaded their latest drivers and ran the ati-driver-installer-9.2-x86.x86_64.run. Everything seems to be going well then I get an "extraction failed. signal caught, cleaning up" message at the end and so I can't install the drivers nor build an ati.lzm.
I tried with different versions of the driver (older ones) and I always get that error which is very very frustrating.
Can someone please put me out of my misery? It seems every angle I try fails.
Running BT4 beta on USB. Laptop is an LG E300 in case it makes any difference.
Thanks in advance

Hi everyone,
I work at a Korean K-12 school (in China) teaching English to kinder kids aged 5 to 7 (which is really 4 - 6 in western countries) - and I have a 3 year old in my 5 years class...
My major was however, in primary teaching.
Imagine my surprise when the kinder leader told me on Friday (i.e. 2 days ago) that I would have to teach open classes next Friday (i.e. in 5 days). Anyone who has worked at a Korean school may know that open classes take place once or twice a year. However, this is my third open class in 8 months. Wait! There's more - I usually teach one class, and the Chinese teacher teaches another (the 5 years class doesn't usually have a foreign language open class) but this time I've been assigned to both the 7 and 5 year classes! Finally, this time I'll have to teach both the students AND their parents!
Apart from the lack of time I have to prepare, I am stuck on how to incorporate the parents into the lesson. I've not had the chance to do this before. For the 5 years class, the topic we are currently covering is pets (in addition to ongoing study of the alphabet). In the 7 years class, we're covering robots. The classes run for 40 minutes. Any advice on how to go about teaching my classes effectively will be much appreciated my fellow teachers!
