Secure your computer network with SSH! With transparent, strong encryption, reliable public-key authentication, and a highly configurable client/server architecture, SSH (Secure Shell) is a popular, robust, TCP/IP-based solution to many network security and privacy concerns. It supports secure remote logins, secure file transfer between computers, and a unique "tunneling" capability that adds encryption to otherwise insecure network applications. Best of all, SSH is free, with feature-filled commercial versions available as well.SSH: The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide covers the Secure Shell in detail for both system administrators and end users. It demystifies the SSH man pages and includes thorough coverage of:

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal on the cover of SSH, the Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide is a land snail (Mollusca gastropoda).A member of the mollusk family, a snail has a soft, moist body that is protected by a hard shell, into which it can retreat when in danger or when in arid or bright conditions. Snails prefer wet weather and, though not nocturnal, will stay out of bright sun. At the front of a snail's long body are two sets of tentacles: its eyes are at the end of one set, and the other set is used for smelling and navigation.Land snails are hermaphrodites, each having both female and male sex organs, though a snail must mate with another snail in order for fertilization to occur. A snail lays eggs approximately six times a year, with almost 100 eggs each time. Young snails hatch in a month and become adults in two years. A snail's life span is approximately 5-10 years.Known as a slow mover, a snail moves by muscles on its underside that contract and expand, propelling the snail along at a slow pace. It leaves a wet trail of mucus, which protects the snail from anything sharp it may need to crawl over as it searches for food. The snail's diet of plants, bark, and fruits causes it to be a pest in many parts of the world where it is notorious for destroying crops.

Secure Know-How!

Comments about oreilly SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide:
SSH: The Definitive Guide is an exemplary book written in detailed, easy-to-understand language that makes working with and understanding the SSH protocol and programs very simple.Being an "ordinary user" myself, there were parts of this book that I did not understand very well, in every single case, these were chapters "meant for" sysadmins and other demi-gods and the authors made sure to mention this fact.The book is also organized with this in mind, and so your approach to this book really depends on what level of expertise you already have with computer networking. I found that to be a valuable asset, as I am sure to return to this book when I learn more.In addition to all of that, I found it to be a remarkably good starter for learning about and understanding cryptography. It is not a cyptography or cryptanalysis primer, but it does a surprisingly good job of explaining what these are to the uninitiated.It's without doubt an extremeley helpful book that can come in handy and educational for both the average user and the system administrator.

SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide Review
By Ashutosh Varshney
Really a great book for understanding & working with SSH...
By John Patrick
This book is very good selling product for my customers. It is writed clear, with good level of technical details. Many technically detailed examples show how to configure a SSH servers with more variants of integrating SSH with non-Unix client platforms.John Patrickwebmaster of John's Book Store
By Charles Rowe
SSH, the Secure Shell: The Defintive Guide is another great book from O'Reilly. As the name would suggest, however, it's not so much a meant as a tutorial or a howto as it is an in-depth analysis of SSH's workings, though the examples given could probably be used as the former.The first chapters of the book begin with a lookat what SSH is, a summary of its general uses, and the differences between the various SSH implmentations. It then quickly moves onto a number of practical examples, with explanations of both the 'how' and 'why' behind the examples. Some of the more interesting examples are those that demonstrate X11 tunnelling, key management, and how SSH can be integrated with other applications (such as PGP, for example). One of the major faults of the book is in the writing style. The regular switching back and forth between a conversational tone and a serious, technical one was something that I found rather annoying. But other than that, this is more or less a well-rounded and nicely written book on SSH, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone who is interested in this topic.

"A comprehensive study... explanations are clear and thorough" read full review
By Anonymous
An excellent guide for administrators or power users. Gives enough information to understand how to implement or accomplish tasks without going too deep into the inner workings. (Example: The cypher overview was brief and clear without delving into technical differences.) Discussions of different authentication methods are also handled well, and you'll definitely understand the trade-offs between hostbased, public key and passwd authentication well enough to make informed decisions. Only drawback I could find was related to the extensive documentation on how the various software implementations differed and how un-documented or mis-documented features actually work. This information is really invaluable, but much will soon be outdated.
By Drew Simonis
Before reviewing this book, I had used SSH but possessed no special understanding of the protocol or software. This book reads like a dream. Chapter 2, on basic SSH use is fantastic: the writing clear, the examples sound, and the benefit to SSH understanding great. It does a splendid job of laying a proper foundation which the rest of the text builds on. The chapters on the SecureCRT and F-Secure Windows clients are also excellent.-Security Consultant, Fiderus Strategic Security and Privacy ServicesTechnical Reviewer
By Mike Smith
Blimey, this book is great. Although I am an experienced SSH user, its amazing to see the volume of subject matter covered. The authors have done a really good job at capturing all the essential elements - and much more. They should get a lot of well-deserved praise for providing us with this much needed text.Mike SmithTechnical Reviewer.
By Dug Song (a technical reviewer for book)
This book is essential reading for anyone interested in SSH at any level. It serves as a handy guide through the complex maze of SSH protocols, implementations, and deployment issues.
By Sergey Okhapkin
I like this book. It covers a wide range of tasks to solve with SSH, using a variety of protocol implementations and platforms. Topics range from "what is security" and "how to run SSH" up through advanced configuration and usage. This book will be very useful to both SSH administrators and users. I was a technical reviewer for this book. (I am also the developer of free Windows ports of SSH1 and SSH2.)

Is it me or my expectations? My mobile travel applications have only improved over the past 12 months (and I mean this sincerely), but my disappointment has never been so acute. Why? My expectations have never been higher. I access information more frequently (see Ted Schadler's and John McCarthy's Engagement report -- they quantify this), and I expect more accuracy. In the absence of tethering my computer or tablet to to my mobile-phone-turned-hotspot (difficult on the move), I turn to my mobile phone for services. "Immediacy" is what makes mobile so valuable. If I can't get real-time, accurate information on the go, then how useful are the mobile services?
11. (an extra) When I use the mobile app to add the boarding pass to Passbook, why does only one of two boarding passes go there when I have a connecting flight?
10. I uploaded an update to the loyalty program from the hotel chain. It deleted all of my account information. Awesome. Really guys?
9. I searched the mobile app, mobile web, and full web for a way to recover my account number - not possible in my 10 minutes of searching. Only possible to get password.
8. I called customer service (hotel brand) while sitting on the plane to get my account number. They asked me to state my password out loud (while on the crowded plane). I gave them the password, and they told me it was incorrect. They proceeded to ask for all of my additional security information (e.g., mother's maiden name). "We have these rules in place to protect your privacy and ensure the security of your account." I'm thinking, "My hotel frequent stay account??? It's easier to get my user name and password from my bank!!" Terrible user experience.

It's a good idea to consider how you will be using your desktop computer. A variation of tasks may warrant specific devices and functions of your desktop computer. Some people use their computers for basic needs such as emailing and composing documents, while others address many needs on their computer such as downloading videos, modifying pictures, etc. More intensive tasks will require more memory and higher processor speeds.
The monitor is your computer screen. A huge factor in choosing a monitor is the associated native resolution of the images appearing on screen. Like a television, most consumers want to view the best possible picture. The images on screen will improve in reference to a higher number of resolution. In addition, think about a desired size. Monitors are measured diagonally (like TVs), so choose a size that is aligned with your desires.
A desktop's case refers to the structure which holds internal working and hard drives. Cases come in different shapes and sizes, so it is important to think about where you would like the case to rest. Some people prefer to place the case on top of a desk next to their monitor, while others place their case on the floor. The decision is up to you, but it is important for the case to receive proper ventilation and rest safely away from any hazards (such as liquids).
In addition, think about choosing a case that will allow for upgrades since computer technology is constantly advancing. Opting for a lower-grade model may limit your upgrade options.
Better running speeds and smooth usage is contingent on a desktop computer's memory. It is very easy to upgrade a desktop's memory after an initial purchase, yet it is easier (and more economical) to purchase a desktop computer with enough memory to address immediate needs, while keeping future needs and interests in mind.
Think about all the functions/components you want your desktop computer to address/use before choosing a motherboard. You will want your desktop's motherboard to have at least two USB ports, which enables connection to printers and external hard drives. Higher-end models and multimedia-focused models should have audio/visual inputs and FireWire ports within easy reach.
Hard drives refer to information stored in your desktop computer. If you're going to store a lot of files, pictures, and music on your computer, then you will want to purchase a computer with a large hard drive. While memory helps the speed and fluidity of applications, hard drives store all necessary, used information. Hard drives with 200GB (giga-byte) - 500GB space is optimal for most desktop computer users.
Processors facilitate a desktop computer's interaction with leveraged applications (such as WordPerfect, video games, DVDs, etc.). Dual-processors allow for faster multitasking and speedier performance in reference to particular kinds of graphics and video games. For most, basic functions, just about any processor will be sufficient.

B1 Business Visa & B2 Tourist Visa
The visitor visa is a type of nonimmigrant visa for persons desiring to enter the United States temporarily for business (B-1) or for pleasure, tourism or medical treatment (B-2).
The general requirements for a Business and Tourist are:
- Alien has a residence in a foreign country;
- Alien has no intention of abandoning the foreign residence;
- Alien is visiting temporarily for business or pleasure;
B1 and B2 visas are generally admitted into the US for 6 months, however this can vary. Similar to other non-immigrant visas, the granting of B visa, as well as the authorized period of stay is discretional. Sometimes applicants are only given 1 to 3 months by the Customs and Border Patrol upon entry or by the interviewing Consulate in a foreign country.
In proving eligibility for the business or tourist visa, the Applicant must show it is essential to show a foreign residence at home and "substantial ties" to the home country. Receiving approval for a business or tourist visa can at times be a very challenging process, especially in proving substantial ties to the home country and your performance at the consular interview. It is important to receive a proper guidance from an experienced Immigration Attorney in your B1 and B2 Visa Applications. Contact Cipolla Law Group today to schedule a consultation.

Arsenal play a day before Premier League leaders Manchester United this weekend and Jack Wilshere knows three points against West Ham will really turn up the pressure on Sir Alex Ferguson's side.
A victory at Upton Park on Saturday afternoon would take the Gunners to within a point of United ahead of their trip to White Hart Lane on Sunday.
Wins over Chelsea and Birmingham plus stalemates against Manchester City and Wigan have left Arsenal in touch with the leaders and Wilshere believes that Arsène Wenger's side can maintain their Premier League momentum against the Hammers.
"No matter what you say, if we play before them and get three points they are always going to be thinking we are on their tails," the midfielder told Arsenal.com.
"We've been strong in the Premier League for the last few games. We need to keep that going, get three points at West Ham and keep pushing on and trying to catch United.
"We need to catch them. If we play well at West Ham we can get the win there.
"We know everyone can drop points, it will be hard for us to go to the bottom club on Saturday. They are bottom but they have got players like Scott Parker who can play for England. It shows the strength of the Premier League this year."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

I am a new player still under beginner's protection.
Just before the server update, I am at negative crop production. In the past when I shift my hero back to crop bonus (to create a net positive production), I was able to continue building buildings and other resources. After the server update
(1) Above method does not work.
(2) Even when I increased crop production to zero (without hero) and positive (with hero), I cannot build anything but crops.
(3) When I increase crop production to postivie (without hero), I am able to build non-food resource, but still buildings like markets are locked.
Please investigate, ty.

A Muslim activist who is known for his radical views regarding the war in Iraq was jailed and sentenced for four and a half years for his inflammatory speeches in a London mosque. Judge Nicholas Price said that Abu Izzadeen, was among the leaders of a group of men who gathered in the Regent's Park mosque in November, 2004, to call for volunteers to fight British troops in Iraq and to make an appeal for funds to finance insurgency abroad. He was also accused of heckling then Home Secretary John Reid who was giving a spech in 2006. The judge said Izzadeen and his associates had abused the right to free speech. Izzadeen was told by the British judge: "I am left in no doubt that your speeches were used by you as self-aggrandisement and not as an expression of sincerely held religious views. I find that you are arrogant, contemptuous and utterly devoid of any sign of remorse."
After the sentencing, Bethan David, of the Crown Prosecution Service, said: "The challenge in this case was to demonstrate to the jury that sometimes statements overstep not just the boundaries of taste and decency, but also the boundaries of the law."
The bottom line is apparently no evidence was found that Izzadeen committed any action of terrorism. Heckling a government official is certainly within the boundaries of law and urging people to fight is just that — urging. The case against Izzadeen would have been strengthened if there was evidence he had in some manner directly aided the killing of anyone.

DALLAS, TEXAS - The University of North Carolina women's swimming and diving team stands in second place after the opening day of the SMU Women's Swimming and Diving Classic at Perkins Natatorium. In a field that includes six nationally-ranked Top 25 teams, #19 UNC stands in second place with 149.5 points.
"The first night of the SMU Women's Classic went really well for us," said UNC head coach Rich DeSelm. "We are in second place and had some exciting performances."
Third-ranked Southern California leads the field after the first night of competition with 185 points while #19 North Carolina is second with 149.5 points. No. 10 Florida is in third place with 145 points while ninth-ranked Texas is fourth with 129 points. #24 Louisville and host SMU, ranked #16, round out the field with 116 points and 111.5 points, respectively.
"The six teams in this meet are some of the top NCAA teams in the country," said DeSelm. "It is great to be a part of this competition. We had a great night overall and our girls had a lot of fun swimming fast and diving well on the first night. We've set ourselves up well after the first night and are looking forward to racing tomorrow."
Although the Tar Heels did not win an "A" final championship in Friday night's schedule of events, UNC earned a total of five second-place finishes in the championship finals on the night, including runner-up finishes in both relay events.
Carolina opened the night with a solid placing in the 400-yard medley relay. The Tar Heels finished second in the event at 3:39.76, just behind USC at 3:38.26. The UNC relay included Carly Smith, Katie Rechsteiner, Katie Nolan and Danielle Siverling. Nolan and Siverling both had the fastest splits in the field of six teams as Nolan went 52.75 on the butterfly leg and Siverling split 49.15 in the freestyle leg.
In the 400-yard individual medley, junior Cari Blalock matched her in-season best time ever with a 4:12.14 for a third place finish. In the "B" final, freshman Madison Burns went 4:15.81, regular-season best, to take second place in that heat.
Carolina had two of its strongest swims of the night in the 200-yard freestyle as sophomore Danielle Siverling placed second in 1:45.90 and Stephanie Peacock captured the championship of the "B" final with a clocking of 1:46.65. Siverling's time was just off her career best time of 1:45.66 set at last year's NCAA Championship.
Carolina had some solid finishes in the 50-yard freestyle with freshman Lauren Earp and senior Katie Nolan and in the next event sophomore diver Natalie Ritter had an excellent performance with a score of 255.50 points. That was good for a third-place finish.
Like the 200-yard freestyle, the Tar Heels were extremely solid in the 100-yard butterfly. Katie Nolan finished second in the event with a time of 52.98 seconds. That was just .06 of a second off of her personal time. Blalock had the fastest time of her career with a time of 53.75 seconds to win the "B" final. Her previous career best was 53.77. She was also faster than at any time during her sophomore season in 2011-12.
The 100-yard backstroke saw Carolina's Carly Smith finish second in a time of 55.60 seconds. Katie Rechsteiner and Madison Burns also turned in excellent swims in the 100-yard breaststroke for UNC.
Carolina finished the evening strong with a second-place finish in the 800-yard freestyle relay. UNC's time was 7:10.98 and it was just nosed out by USC which finished in 7:10.45. The Tar Heel relay included Danielle Siverling (1:47.43), Lauren Earp (1:47.05), Cari Blalock (1:50.33) and a strong anchor swim by Stephanie Peacock (1:46.17).
"We were excited about the potential of our 800 freestyle relay," said DeSelm. "We were in a nice race with Southern Cal and just finished a little short. The time we put up may be our best history wise outside of a championship meet at the ACC or NCAA level."
Action continues on the final night of the SMU Classic on Saturday night with the meet starting at 7:30 p.m. EDT (6:30 p.m. CDT).

So I've been building my Fett slowly for over a year now... but I'm starting to lose hope. It seems like the post office hates me because I have ordered a helmet, armor, and gauntlets from fettpride and an ammo belt from 99centTaco and both packages have seemed to have gone missing in the mail. I've talked to Taco and he doesn't know what happened to the belt. And sadly I can't get a hold of Chris because he has been so busy, but last time we spoke he said that he was sending my package, that was around mid-November. I feel terrible trying to contact Chris because I feel like I'm harassing him.
So my question is, what do I do? It really sucks to constantly wait for something that seems to have gone missing in the mail. I knew building a Fett costume would take time, but it honestly seems that the post office hates me.
Sorry if I seem like I'm whining, I'm just very depressed about my situation.

Even adult dogs, when they move, for example come back home from boarding, can drink water excessively from stress, and then develop loose stool. My boarding kennel warns me to give the dog ice cubes instead of water and limit water intake during the first 24 hours, until the dog settles in.
It is always a good idea to deworm the little ones.
I hope that your puppy is feeling better now.
Just curious, did you get any reply from your breeder about your pup health issue? What was his/her response.
|I would feed him a bland diet until his poops solidify. Use white or brown rice or oatmeal and double cook the grain with twice as much water so it's more easily digestible. Add baked or boiled chicken and a tablespoon of plain canned pumpkin.
Thanks all.
Lies - Nikon's fit in the crate sounds like Hans' in the pen. It was unbelievable. He was launching himself at the panels and moving the pen along the length of the kitchen to the point where we had to surround it with dining room chairs. That's when he began biting at the wire and trying to take the panels apart at the seams, lol.
Second night was much better! Barely any crying when put in the crate and only got up twice, both times to poo (we've returned to the pudding pile, no more watery diarrhea, yay) and also pee. Otherwise slept like a champ for about 3-3.5 hours at a time. Moved his crate to right next to the bed as opposed to the foot of the bed and that seemed to help.
They are running a fecal test - vet said he'd check the results and give me a call today if anything is off otherwise he'll check in with us on Monday.
He got up and ate about 2/3 of a cup of food this morning (he had about 1 and 2/3 yesterday in total compared to his usual 3-3.5). The vet suggested I feed him smaller quantities than usual but more often.
|Oh another thing that really helped with Nikon (I discovered this after his first several nights of screaming) was taking him to bed with me and letting him fall asleep on me while I was reading, then carefully move him to the crate. He would wake up and fuss, but not as bad.
Did they do a fecal test? This sounds exactly like my first several nights with Legend and Patton. It ended up that Legend had roundworm That explained his nonstop liquid poo and general feeling of tummy upset. It's kind of my fault, I just assumed it was stress due to changes at first (and change in kibble), so he wasn't tested until I'd had him almost a week. After his very first dose of de-wormer, he was feeling better. The breeder de-wormed his litter twice but it's still common for them to get worms anyway, or pick something up.
As for the screaming fits....it just depends on the dog. Nikon threw an absolute screaming, thrashing fit (I mean, he actually ROLLED his crate) for 7 hours nonstop the first several nights. Phil was sleeping downstairs on the couch with pillows over his head. After about a week, he was totally over it and even slept through the night. Legend and Patton were pretty bad too, but since it was my Christmas break, at least I wasn't as stressed about it. I slept on the couch in our basement with them for the first few nights. They HATED the pen the first night. Then I had them together in a crate but Legend pooped, they both stepped in it, and tracked it all over the carpet So I put them in small crates side by side. After the first week, Legend really settled down. He still has to go out at night (I've had ONE full night's sleep since Dec. 21!) but he goes to bed quiet and after I let him out to pee, he runs back upstairs and back into his crate on his own. As soon as I know he can hold it all night, he can sleep on a dog bed or on our bed.
I am so happy that your baby is feeling better.
I really think his new environment scared him to death and it upset his system.
I am glad you took him to the vet and they were able to give him some meds to calm his tummy and make him feel better. I second the information on puppies needed attention when they start the run and vomiting, they dehydrate very quickly.
Thanks. I've emailed the breeder to let him know.
It's been 5 hours since the last bowel movement. Hans has woken up from a long nap and he is back to being his normal landshark self and hunting around for our shoes. He ate about 1/2 a cup of food as well and then proceeded to tear up all the newspapers on the floor and is currently set on ripping apart the area rug. So we feel way better!!
I hope it's just stress. We had loose poops the first 24 hours as well.
Zoe was the same about her crate the first night and I ended up sleeping on the floor for 2 weeks. I honestly did not know a puppy could scream so loud. So after the 2 weeks she definitely was more secure and she adjusted just fine to sleeping in her crate next to our bed. Good luck!

Maurice McTigue is an interesting man.
He served as a member of parliament and cabinet minister in his native New Zealand, and was his country's ambassador to Canada. He helped craft pro-growth, market-driven policies to reform the nation's government and economy, which became so successful that some call the results the "New Zealand miracle."
Now McTigue shares his vast experience as a consultant to state governments and federal agencies, and as vice president of outreach at the Mercatus Center, a think tank at George Mason University in Arlington, Virginia.
Despite reports from state officials who say our economy is growing and creating jobs, McTigue believes Kentucky needs to do better. In July, he told a state-wide Chamber of Commerce business summit that the Commonwealth should be more competitive with other states when it comes to job creation by becoming more business friendly.
This Sunday at 1 p.m. on KET, I'll talk with McTigue on One to One. We'll discuss why Kentucky's economy isn't doing better. (The show also airs Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. on KET2.)
I'm eager to hear your thoughts about McTigue's assessment, and what you think Kentucky can do to better compete with our neighboring states. You can post your comments here, or share them with me on Facebook (billgoodmanKET) or on Twitter (@BillKET). I look forward to hearing from you.

"The cards came printed on heavy paper and the colors were bright and fun. I ordered them for my daughter's birthday. Everyone that saw them loved them. The picture on the card made them even better. I would buy from tiny prints again."
"I turned this design into a thank you card for my daughter's 1st birthday. She happens to really enjoy cars. Super cute and colorful!"
"Great Card. Some were sent to me and the rest mailed direct to my invitees. Those that came to me were a week earlier than those to the invite list. I used this feature to save time and it took almost a week longer."
"I picked this card because I thought the graphics were best for a 5 year olds party. The text spacing was limited but the customer service department was excellent at warning me of issues and correcting my mistake. I was surprised that it was so small (I had envisioned a larger card) and I would have liked to put a little text on the back. But, it'll be a fine invite for this party!"
"This was exactly what I was looking for my daughter's birthday to get everyone for a showing of her favorite flick with this movie themed party invitation."

Eligibility rules regarding minimum ages for participation in professional sports have forever been a curious, arbitrary, punitive and suspicious thing.
In the NFL, a court-sanctioned standard makes any player who is not yet three full seasons removed from high school graduation ineligible for the league's draft. It used to be four years until 1990.
The NBA requires draftees to be at least 19 years old and a year removed from their high school class graduation, as of 2005. Prospects can, however, enter the D-League for nominal pay straight out of high school, or go play in Europe. The NBA used to make players wait four years after high school graduation to compete until a U.S. Supreme Court decision junked that requirement in 1971. High school prospects were allowed in until the 2005 rule change.
Major League Baseball's rules allow players to be drafted straight out of high school, unless they attend college. In that case, they must remain through their junior years or until they turn 21. Junior college players, though, can enter the draft whenever they want.
Those requirements are spun by the pro leagues as a means for better facilitating the needs of prospective players. Which is to say, to protect the players from themselves and the temptation to turn pro too early.
The suspicion here is that the rules are meant more to protect professional teams from themselves, and, in some cases, to preserve a no-cost minor league system that has served pro leagues well through the years. In other words, the minimum age requirements might benefit the organizations on both ends of the equation especially the NCAA and the NBA or the NFL but they do not fully benefit players who would otherwise be drafted and paid large sums of money to do what they are presently doing for little compensation in college.
College football and the NFL, in particular, are the winners here. Not the individual players. CFB gets talent for the cost of tuition for a minimum of three seasons and the big-time cash that major college football generates for its members and the NFL gets free training for its future players, as well as extended time to evaluate that talent. The players get their freedom of choice taken away. They play in an ivy-covered academic setting, even if they have no real interest in attending college, effectively majoring in football. That's a breeding ground for hypocrisy, all in the name of amateurism. Some claim it's in the best interests of the young players, keeping them shielded from the rigors of pro ball, helping them stay healthy. But they're just as likely to get hurt playing in college at 20 as they are playing in the NFL at 21.
Much attention has been paid lately to the case of Jadeveon Clowney, the talented defensive end at South Carolina who, coming off his sophomore season, has already shown NFL scouts what they need to see. The 6-foot-6, 256-pound Clowney would be a top pick if he were entered in this year's draft, plying his trade for millions of dollars instead of being further exposed to football's violence in college for little remuneration. Anybody who says he's not ready to move on hasn't watched Clowney play. Some have even suggested he sit out his junior year to avoid injury while he complies with a ridiculous rule that shouldn't apply to him.
If an NFL team wants to employ Clowney and pay him $20-plus million and all of them would then, why should an arbitrary rule block him from that employment? He's taking out an insurance policy to protect his future, but that still falls short of his earning potential.
Former Ohio State running back Maurice Clarett challenged the NFL requirement in 2004 and won a lower-court ruling before an appeals panel overturned the decision. Some in the NFL players union are eager for yet another challenge to the sanctioned age discrimination currently in place. And that would be appropriate.
When Kentucky basketball player Nerlens Noel recently blew out his knee in a game against Florida, you had to think the freshman star should have avoided the whole mess by playing for an NBA paycheck. He couldn't because of the so-called one-and-done rule. That's the only reason he was at Kentucky. Not for an education rather, to go through the motions required. It's silly because Noel would have been a high pick had he been eligible coming out of high school. The notion that he and all the other one-and-doners suddenly would become much more mature because of a single year of college is just dumb. What it does is give college ball a stream of talent and a chance for schools to profit mightily off that talent, and the NBA more time to evaluate abilities. All while the players themselves play for next to nothing.
That's a scam.
Even some college coaches disapprove, and want change. Asked about that by Sports Illustrated, Mike Krzyzewski said: "The NBA age limit has had a dramatic effect on the college game. I still believe if a kid wanted to go out of high school, he should go out of high school. And if he comes to college, he should be here for two years. I don't think it's a good rule, one-and-done. But I would never want to deprive a great talent, if they didn't want to go to school, from going into the NBA. I think to make them go to school is a mistake."
Krzyzewski is right.
Eligibility rules should give more flexibility to individual players in individual situations. Some younger athletes are ready to pursue their professional careers, and some are not. Let them decide, and let pro teams decide to draft them, if they will.

Roxy Music
The son of a coal miner, Bryan Ferry (vocals, keyboards) had studied art with Richard Hamilton at the University of Newcastle before forming Roxy Music in 1971. While at university, he sang in rock bands, joining the R&B group the Gas Board, which also featured bassist Graham Simpson. Ferry and Simpson decided to form their own band toward the end of 1970, eventually recruiting Andy Mackay (saxophone), who had previously played oboe with the London Symphony Orchestra. Through Mackay, Brian Eno joined the band. By the summer of 1971, the group -- had originally been called "Roxy" but a name change was necessary after the discovery of an American band called Roxy -- had recruited classical percussionist Dexter Lloyd and guitarist Roger Bunn through an ad in Melody Maker; both musicians left within a month, but they did record the group's initial demos. Another ad was placed in Melody Maker, and this time the group landed drummer Paul Thompson and guitarist Davy O'List, who had previously played with the Nice. O'List left by the beginning of 1972 and was replaced by Phil Manzanera, a former member of Quiet Sun. Prior to recording their first album, Simpson left the band. Roxy Music never replaced him permanently; instead, they hired new bassists for each record and tour, beginning with Rik Kenton, who appeared on their eponymous debut for Island Records.
Produced by Peter Sinfield of King Crimson, Roxy's self-titled debut climbed into the British Top Ten in the summer of 1972; shortly afterward, the non-LP single "Virginia Plain" rocketed into the British Top Ten, followed by the non-LP "Pyjamarama" in early 1973. While Roxy Music had become a sensation in England and Europe due to their clever amalgamation of high and kitsch culture, they had trouble getting a foothold in the United States. Both the first album and the follow-up, 1973's For Your Pleasure (recorded with bassist John Porter), were greeted with enthusiasm in the U.K., but virtually ignored in the U.S. Frustrated with Ferry's refusal to record his compositions, Eno left the band after the completion of For Your Pleasure. Before recording the third Roxy Music album, Ferry released a solo album, These Foolish Things, which was comprised of pop/rock covers.
Released in December of 1973, Stranded became the band's first number one album in the U.K. Stranded was recorded with new Roxy member Eddie Jobson, a multi-instrumentalist who previously played with Curved Air; it was also the first record to feature writing credits for Manzanera and Mackay. The album received a warmer reception in the U.S. than its two predecessors, setting the stage for the breakthrough of Country Life in late 1974. Sporting a controversial cover of two models dressed in see-through lingerie -- the cover was banned in several stores, and it was eventually replaced with a photo of a forest in the U.S. -- Country Life was the first Roxy album to break the U.S. Top 40 and became their fourth British Top Ten album. Following a tour with bassist John Wetton, the group recorded Siren. Featuring their first American Top 40 hit, the disco-flavored "Love Is the Drug," Siren was another British Top Ten hit; in the U.S., it was moderate hit, peaking at number 50. Following the tour for Siren, the band members began working on solo projects -- Manzanera formed the prog-rock group 801, and Mackay and Ferry both began recording solo albums -- and announced in the summer of 1976 that they were temporarily breaking up. The live album Viva Roxy Music! was released shortly after the announcement of the group's hiatus.
Roxy Music regrouped in the fall of 1978 after spending 18 months on solo projects. Ferry, Manzanera, Mackay and Thompson added former Ace keyboardist Paul Carrack to the band's lineup and hired Gary Tibbs, formerly of the Vibrators, and ex-Kokomo Alan Spenner as studio bassists; Jobson and Wetton, who were not asked to rejoin the band, formed UK. Roxy Music's comeback effort, Manifesto, was released in the spring of 1979, and it boasted a sleek, disco-influenced soul-pop sound that was markedly different from and more accessible than their earlier records. Manifesto confirmed their British popularity, reaching the Top Ten, and became their highest-charting U.S. record, peaking at number 23 on the strength of the single "Dance Away." Roxy Music supported the album with an international tour that featured Carrack and Tibbs; prior to the tour's start, Thompson left the band after breaking his thumb in a motorcycle accident. Flesh + Blood, the follow-up to Manifesto, was recorded just by Ferry, Manzanera and Mackay, and a host of studio musicians. Released in the summer of 1980, Flesh + Blood became Roxy's second British number one album on the strength of the Top Ten single "Over You"; in America, the album reached the American Top 40. In the spring of 1981, the band's non-LP cover of John Lennon's "Jealous Guy," recorded as a tribute to the slain singer, became the group's only British number one single.
Nearly two years later, Roxy Music returned in the summer of 1982 with Avalon. Marking a new level in the group's production and musical sophistication, Avalon became their biggest album, spending three weeks at the top of the British charts and 27 on the U.S. charts, generating the British hits "More Than This" and "Take a Chance With Me." It became the group's only American gold album, and over the years, it worked its way to platinum status. Following a successful supporting tour for Avalon, the group released the live EP Musique/The High Road in the spring of 1983. The Avalon tour turned out to be Roxy Music's final activity as a group. Ferry began to concentrate on his solo career, beginning with 1985's Boys and Girls. Manzanera and Mackay formed a band called the Explorers in 1985; the pair would record under a variety of guises, as well as pursue solo careers, over the next 15 years. The compilation Street Life: 20 Great Hits, which also featured Ferry's solo hits, was released in 1989. A year later, Heart Still Beating, a live album documenting a 1982 concert, was released. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

I think that about sums it up:).
Anyway I'm working on a post and I'll explain paint/colors I'm also going to come outright with the green and I want to ask a favor from everyone and that is after getting the paint and putting it on a helmet please suspend your disbelief I don't think I'll be able to handle the barrage of emails telling me if it's right or it's wrong if you don't like it by all means do not use it but the source I used to obtain the maker of the paint which led me to the color is a very good one and I'm 99% percent sure the green is correct(I'll never say 100% since most of the costume guys forgot what color was used LOL.)
Hopefully the color release will help change peoples mind to thinking outside the box again and not be swayed by opinions of others which I feel has stagnated the whole cause. Most of my friends will testify that I have had to do some convincing to make them think this color is right and some aren't 99% percent convinced yet which is ok with me. One funny comment made about the color came from Tyler D and he said it looked too dark I told him to add some white to it haha.
The pepto helmet color is a futile search and you'll never find that color and the green out of the bottle doesn't even look remotely correct but after you start applying scratches and dings and the other colors it does some freakishly weird stuff and goes pepto on it's own.
Although being accused of trying to make a profit off of this whole thing that is just utter bunk. I am all for helping the RPF but if anyone wants to berade me like on my helmet post or throw a tantrum please just IM me I can take it but cursing me out and judging my character just because I chose to wait is nuts. I forgive and forget but I must admit I got several appologies from the board members for a persons conduct but that indivudual never said anyhting back and I appreciate the rest of you for being so patient and supportive. Well the info will be here today for everyone to share for free I hope we can all work together to make some great helmets and costumes because this is just the begining.

Cool looking old revolver. Nice find!!
This is my most recent gun purchase, 38 S&W safety hammerless.
Very Nice, haven't added one to my smith & wesson collection yet, but still looking.
I have its twin; doubt it's ever been fired, and the trigger will give you a hernia in any case. Whatever spasm of 'progressiveness' afflicted S&W way back then, it makes the gun really hard to shoot.
Serial # on mine is 158xx, which is on the cylinder and the butt. They don't command much money regardless of condition, but they are a really neat old piece. How tight is your lockup?
It feels a little loose but I heard they were like mine from being new, the triggers are a little heavy. this one is dated from 1893 to 1898
had3, mine has essentially zero slop in the lockup, and the machine work/finish is just wonderful. Like I said, doubtful that it was ever fired; there are no marks on the recoil shield nor any burn marks on the cylinder face. It feels like a 'protection' gun that somebody bought early in the last century, loaded, and tossed in the sock drawer against something going bump in the night.
I've other things to shoot, so I'm not going to bother shooting it, but it is neat to have. BTW, do I recall that they will chamber different calibers, including .380?
Where did you find your 'born-on' dates for your gun?
I got them out of the standard catalog of S&W, if you give me the 1st for digits of your serial # I can look it up for you.
Had3, first four are 1585. I think that reference is around here somewhere, but I can't find it at the moment.
Halfmoon is your gun a 5 or 6 digit serial numbered gun, and is it a .38 caliber ?
had3, my apologies, I haven't been back to this thread.
My pistol is .38 S&W, and the serial number has five digits.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Lhorn I am here almost every day and can't answer the majority of questions I read. I know enough to work on my own vehicles but couldn't tell you jack nothin' about an automatic trans, for example, except how to change the fluid and filter. I have little bodywork experience, even less paint exp. so when I saw a question i COULD answer I am more than willing to help !!!
With the info you have given I feel sure you should be fine.
You gents are correct. I took a look in the recepticle and in the box and I've got 2 hots (one black, one white) and a big ground wire. So it looks like I'm in business. Thanks for the reminder about upgrading the wire and breaker if needed.
Thanks again guys for sharing your expertise with a noob. It is appreciated tremendously!
Good info JaggedEdge
Glad to help!!!! *****One caution.*****..... if you start tripping breakers.... don't just upsize the breaker .....The wire size should go up also. I have seen too many situations that resulted in a wire burning because the breaker was too large ( wouldn't trip) and the wire carrying too many amps. A 50 amp breaker can carry wayyyy more amps than a number 10 wire. A 30 amp is the maximum I would put a number 10 wire on.
If you have been using this circuit for a welder... chances are you will be ok..
As a side note... breakers should be loaded to no more than 80% their trip value. The value of a breaker is its "trip point" NOT its run capacity. In simpler terms that breaker will trip at a 30 amp load, not carry a 30 amp load.
Breaker size for motor loads CAN be calculated at 125% FLA to allow for high current draw or "inrush" at startup. This is ONLY for motor loads.
EDIT** If you have it on a 30 and it trips I would recommend upsizing the breaker AND the wire.
Is that 22 amps running? There should be another figure for FLA (full load amps), or LRA (locked rotor amps).
Thanks for the advice guys. I appreciate your patience with my obvious ignorance. I'll do that and pull out the recepticle (after turning off the breaker) to make sure it's grounded. I update my post above with a picture that shows a recepticle similar to mine, so I guess it is an older style dryer type, and not a welder plug.
As far as the 10 gauge, my motor says 22amps on it. I figure it'll pull more on start up so I might be a bit close. If I start tripping the breaker, I'll have to upgrade. It's a pretty short run from my sub box (less than 30 feet) so I'm crossing my fingers that the 10 gauge will be enough.
The receptacle you are showing is a 30 amp 125/250 volt 3 pole 3 wire. It uses two hots and a ground. It would also be wired with #10 AWG wire. As stated you need to verify the max amps your compressor requires.
Thank you 35hotrod.. I've been twistin' wire nuts since '87 myself.
If you have orange romex it is fairly recent work as the color code for romex hasn't been around for long. You will have two hots and a bare copper ground conductor in that romex. I will go out on a limb and say if a licensed electrician put it in I would feel confident it is grounded and properly installed.
You can pull the recep out without taking the wire off and check if it will make you feel better. Not to imply you're not bright,(its a habit working with new guys) but turn the breaker off first!!
My next concern would be the amp draw of the compressor on number 10 wire. Number 10 is good for 30 amps. Check the nameplate of your compressor motor and it should have the amperage on it.
Other than that ... you should be good to go with no worries.
|Is he correct about my plug being 2 hots and a ground (instead of 2 hots and a neutral)? If so that would solve my problem.
|Jagged Edge is absolutely correct, Yuor welder and compressor must be grounded to your panel only. Do not attempt to ground your equipment by driving a pipe in the ground and not uusing the ground at point of service. The equipment ground must supply a direct path to the overcurrent protection device (circuit breaker) in order to trip that breaker asap. The ground is there for protection of personnel. BTW, I've been electrician for a bunch of years.
The 220 recepticle was put in by a licensed electrician. Looks like the wire is orange romex that says "awg 10 grounded type nm-b."
To be honest I'm not sure what type of plug this is. It's only a 3 prong plug. Two flat blade prongs at an angle and a third in middle (triangle formation) that is "L" shaped."
Without getting into the panel, is there a way to tell if the L shaped prong is a ground or neutral? Or just in general to tell is a wire is grounded?
If you are using a three prong welder plug you have two hots AND A GROUND ...not a neutral. If you have a three prong welder receptacle that is wired -two hots and a NEUTRAL it is wired INCORRECTLY!! Your welder does not need a neutral if it is 220, neither does your compressor.
Codes have changed and now require dryer plugs to have four wires...two hots, one neutral, one ground... even if the dryer does not need a neutral.
You say you have a "dryer type" plug. If it was originaly wired for a dryer it might have a neutral conductor from the recep to your electrical panel. It might have a ground conductor that is grounded to the box the recep is in.
As far as the ground rod goes... you probably have one, as it is required for your service to be grounded and it is usually located underneath your meter enclosure on the outside of your house or building.
The ground and neutral are bonded together at the first point of disconnect.
From that point on they are seperate as the neutral carries the "return path" for a 120 v. circuit and the ground only sees current in the event of a short.
Without going into the theory of electricity you aren't actually consuming the current but merely using it. The 120 circuit path is current out on the hot... current return on the neutral. A 220 circuit relies on the phase "imbalance".
This is a kindergarten description, and its really more complicated than that.
If you have a welder receptacle, you should wire two hots and a ground. Depending on what you use for wire (conduit and wire... or romex) you should only have three wires... two hots and a ground. If you have romex (or some other bundled cable) that has 4 wires you do not need the 4'th one and it can be cut off and capped on both ends.
Check your panel... and if the recep you are using has the third wire on the neutral bar... you should remove it. If it is white in color you should tape it with green and transfer it to the ground bar in your panel. You should also tape the recep end of the wire green to indicate to someone in the future that it is a ground. If the third wire is bare copper make sure it is on the ground bar in your panel NOT the neutral bar.
If the third wire is on the neutral bar it will still run... but that is a code violation to have it wired that way.
Thanks for the reply. So I'll cut the neutral wire out, and not worry about that. I'm still thinking that I need to ground this thing somehow. Clearly I'm not especially electrically saavy, but I've done a lot of reading and everyone suggests for safety sake to have this thing grounded even though you are correct, it doesn't appear that my welder is grounded either.
You're right about the rod in the ground. I read that the rod is supposed to be like 8 feet long. I'm gonna take a guess that there aren't a ton of people who've gone as far as driving a rod 8 feet into the earth for a ground.
|Old Rotor Flap
Lhorn tells us....
Quote;" Since it's a true 220 application (ie the coil on the mag starter is 220 not 110), my understanding is that I dont need a neutral (the middle, L shaped prong on the dryer plug), just 2 hots and neutral. "
You don't need a neutral, buy only 2 hots and a neutral? Am I missing somthing here?
If you're using a three prong welder plug and receptacle you have two hots and a neutral.
How is your welder grounded? I think its not.
The trend is (and it may be code, now) to separate the neutral and ground. Dryer plugs and receptacles now have four prongs - two hots, a neutral and a ground.
Again, how is your welder grounded? My welder is on a 70 amp 220 breaker. I'd be more concerned about a properly grounded welder than a compressor that puts out air vs. electricity.
The best ground for a welder is a conductive rod in the ground that contacts the water table. That's about as rare as a muffler on a Harley. Just pounding a ground rod in doesn't mean you have a perfect ground. Though, better than nothing.
How to ground a compressor?
I'm setting up a 80 gallon compressor with a Baldor 5 hp motor. I'm setting it up on a dryer type plug so that I can use my welder on the same outlet. Since it's a true 220 application (ie the coil on the mag starter is 220 not 110), my understanding is that I dont need a neutral (the middle, L shaped prong on the dryer plug), just 2 hots and neutral. What's the best, safest way to ground this thing? I think a lot of guys permanently hardwire their compressor so they run their ground from the fuse box. Since I'm making mine a plug in, I have no way to ground this through the plug. Should I just drive a long rod into the ground and run a ground wire that connects the tank, motor, mag starter?
Also, since I don't need the neutral wire that comes through my plug, cord, what should I do with it?
I've heard three options: 1. since you don't need it, but a wire nut on it to cap it off. 2. Connect the neutral to the "com" tab in the magnetic starter 3. Heard one guy who simply connected it to the metal case of his magnetic starter as your would with a ground. Since the neutral is not equal to ground, I'm not sure this is right. I've heard that you shouldn't connect the neutral to ground although they are connected at the breaker box I think.

Left (981)
Right (991)
If your car feels like it's on rails, then you're going too slow.
when you put them side by side with cropped photos like that, the 991 obviously looks better.
the 981 is fuggin HAWT though.
'89 VW Jetta GLI | '02 VW GTI 1.8T | '05 Porsche Boxster | '05 Ducati Sport1000 | '06 VW GTI | '07 Porsche Cayman | '08 Ducati 848 | '14 Porsche 911 | '17 VW Golf R
Well, one day I will be getting one of these, probably in the exact same color combo and wheels if that answers your question.
I have read many articles stating the Cayman handles better than the 911, and I know a guy who turbo-ed his Cayman, and does not want a 911.
I really like the Boxster's integrated taillight-spoiler. Oddly, one of my favorite elements of the design. Kinda bummed the Cayman spy shot doesn't show it, or that the 911 doesn't use it.
C) Ban hawk
I voted 991 because I'm a self-professed 911 fanboy (the newer the better!). But furthermore, as nice as the 981 is, the design (mostly due to the square-ish headlights) is somewhat anonymous.
Don't think I'm saying that it's boring or unattractive - it's not - but, like some previous Porsches (the 944, for example) it really could have any badge on it and not look out of place. In fact, it looks a bit like an MR2 Spyder that's been modernized and had all the awkward removed.
I like things with two wheels and things with four wheels.
Squished Beetle | Actual Ducati
I hate to agree about the overall silhouette of the 981 headlights, but I do think the odd trapezoid shape is kind of generic. I wouldn't say it needs the classic ovals, but it is lacking something, in regards to the overall contour of the car... But it's really only noticeable from the direct front view. At any other angle, they look ok.
I think it's the disruption of the fender line over the wheel, and the small recess where the washer sits. The lights look tacked on, rather than integrated. I like the way cars looked in the 60's with the vertical lenses covered by a long piece of polycarbonate to preserve the line of the car. That look would work better here, especially with the two vertically aligned lenses..

Jonathan, why are you asking random people on the internet about this???? You know that me buying your car for a better price for you than the dealer is pretty much a lock unless you bin the Cayman or otherwise harm it in the next six months, so it follows that I may very well buy your next Porsche off you in a few years. So the only person you need to consult on model, colour, transmission, options, etc. is ME!!!!
Ha, fair enough. Only 45 days away from the unveiling....
991, it's growing on me.

I am finally getting around to making a helmet and I am using a batting helmet for the dome.I am going to make a At-St lid or maybe even a "fett" lid.
From the research I have done I notice that those who have used a batting helmet for the dome cut the dome into fourths,why would I need to cut the dome into fourths?It seems to have the right dimensions???
Any advice or help would be great..Thank you

I started doing some serious work on my gauntlets and thought that I would share.
It is a Man of War Studios 30th Anniversary ESB kit. Here it is right out of the box
To be honest it's quite intimidating when you first open it up because it has a lot of small parts. My only real complaint so far is the lack of good directions for putting everything together. Everything is well made and fits together nicely though.
The first thing that you need to do is wash all of the parts in warm soapy water (as per the directions) then start sanding off the excess resin. I used my dremel to cut off the pour channels and fine sanded everything down before I started assembling anything.
I decided to start on the flamethrower since that had the most parts. I went through everything and separated the parts for the flamethrower.
Here they are minus the aluminum tubes and the greeblies that go with them
I began by putting together the back end of the unit. I used JB Kwik epoxy for the whole thing.
Next I attached the three middle cylinders. When you first get these out of the bag there are big pieces of excess resin that you have to cut off. After you get them trimmed up they fit into slots on the back end piece and the middle piece.
Test fit to see how it's all going to line up on the back plate.
The three wires are resin and not attached yet, I'll put those on after all the drilling and attaching is finished since they are attached to the gauntlets and the flamethrower.
Next I got out the aluminum tubes and greeblies. I attached some before taking pictures and they were kind of a pain to get on, so I left them.
There are two thick tubes and two skinny tubes that have specific greeblies that go with them.
Here is the top tube assembly
I HIGLY recommend putting them all together without any glue and measuring them to make sure you have the right tube with the right part. I assembled them without glue but didn't test measure and I ended up having to modify the bottom tube assembly a bit. I used the wrong skinny tube on the top and it ended up making the bottom tube assembly about an inch too long.
I discovered this AFTER I had assemble and epoxied the top tube assembly together. I ended up cutting about 3/4 of an inch off of the bottom thick tube to make it look right.
Here is the bottom tube assembly
And here it is all together
And there you have it. Next up I'll be doing the drilling to attach all of this to the gauntlets. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks for looking.

Mission Statement
For decades, policymakers have relied on test-based accountability to improve student achievement and reduce racial and socioeconomic achievement gaps. However, research has shown that these accountability programs have been blunt tools. They have often created undesirable types of test preparation, resulting in inflated score gains. In many cases, they have produced modest gains, or no gains at all, in actual student achievement.
The Education Accountability Project conducts research that can guide the development of improved test-based accountability systems—programs that are more effective and have fewer side-effects. Current projects include:

Olivier Giroud admits it will be "special" to face his former club Montpellier on Tuesday night - but says he will keep any potential goal celebrations to a minimum.
The France international returns to the Stade de la Mosson for the first time in Arsenal's opening fixture in this season's Champions League.
It will be an emotional occasion for the striker, who helped his former club win the Ligue 1 title last year, and he is looking forward to the match.
"To return to Montpellier is very special because I spent two very happy years there which were fantastic," Giroud said. "Montpellier is a family club and I left a lot of friends behind - everybody who works at the club and the players.
"I spent a beautiful, wonderful season there last year when we were champions and won the title. It was a fantastic achievement for Montpellier to win the French championship and there was a lot of emotion when we won.
"It will be difficult for me to play against Montpellier, because there is a lot of emotion and I have so many good memories of last season. I left a lot of friends and it's going to be great to see them.
"But only after the game will I talk to anyone. This is an important match and I will be concentrating on it. I will not speak with my friends until afterwards."
Giroud has yet to get off the mark to Arsenal, but says were he to score at his former club his celebrations would be muted.
"I want to score in every match, but if I score against Montpellier I will keep the celebration small," he said. "That is normal for anybody, for the club and Montpellier fans. It will be out of my respect to my old club
"I'm an Arsenal player and I want to score and to win this game for Arsenal. It will be my first game in the Champions League, so I want to win it.
"Of course we are playing against Montpellier, but it is an important game for Arsenal and I have to forget it's Montpellier for 90 minutes."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Women's Basketball Entertains In-State Rival Milwaukee on Saturday
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay women's basketball team welcomes in-state rival Milwaukee to the Kress Center on Saturday as the Panthers make the trip up I-43 for a 1 p.m. affair.
Saturday's game is a Festival Foods Family Game, with youth tickets just $3. There will also be a fan banner giveaway for the first 1,000 fans.
The game will be televised locally on Time Warner Cable SportsChannel 32/1332 HD and will also be available through the Horizon League Network online. Chris Roth and former Green Bay standout player Lydia Bauer will have the call.
Fans can listen live to the game on Green Bay's new radio partner, WNFL 1440 AM. The live audio with Bruce VandenPlas on the call will also be available for free via GreenBayPhoenix.com or on the Green Bay Phoenix App on IOS and Android devices.
Saturday's contest marks the 75th all-time meeting between the two squads, with the Phoenix leading the series 57-17. Green Bay has won the last 17 matchups dating back to the 2006-07 season, and is 34-4 against Milwaukee at home. The Phoenix has not lost to the Panthers at the Kress Center since it opened in 2007, with the last loss at home coming on Feb. 4, 2006 (67-69). Since that loss, Green Bay has gone on to defeat Milwaukee by double-digits in 11 of 17 contests, including the last 10 consecutive.
Green Bay is coming off of a big 66-50 win over UIC on Wednesday to start Horizon League play. Sophomore Kaili Lukan (Barrie, Ontario) and freshman Tesha Buck (Red Wing, Minn.) both finished with career-high scoring performances, as Lukan had 22 points while Buck added 20, becoming the first Phoenix duo to score 20+ points in the same contest since Megan Lukan (20) and Julie Wojta (29) did it in the Horizon League Championship game against Detroit on March 11, 2012. The last time it occurred during the regular season was on Jan. 27, 2011 when Wojta (20) and Celeste Hoewisch (23) teamed up.
Four different players lead the Phoenix in the top statistical categories, including Kaili Lukan in points (11.3), senior Breannah Ranger in rebounds (7.4), junior Megan Lukan in assists (4.1) and Buck in steals (2.0).
Saturday's game is the Horizon League opener for the Panthers, who stand at 4-9 overall this season after most recently defeating Omaha 68-48 last Sunday. After starting 2-8, Milwaukee has won two of its last three contests. Three Panthers are averaging double-digit scoring, led by Angela Rodriguez (17.3), Ashley Green (13.9) and Avyanna Young (12.7). Young also leads the team in rebounding (9.8), while Rodriguez has a team-best 5.8 assists per game and 1.2 steals per game.
1. High Scorers: In a 66-50 win over UIC on Wednesday, sophomore Kaili Lukan and freshman Tesha Buck both finished with career-high scoring performances. Lukan had 22 points while Buck added 20, becoming the first Phoenix duo to score 20+ points in the same contest since Megan Lukan (20) and Julie Wojta (29) did it in the Horizon League Championship game against Detroit on March 11, 2012. The last time it occurred during the regular season was on Jan. 27, 2011 when Wojta (20) and Celeste Hoewisch (23) teamed up.
2. Cool Hand Lukan: Coming back from an ACL injury that finished her season early last year, sophomore Kaili Lukan has been making the most of her time on the court this season. Leading the team in scoring for the majority of this season, she has been the leading Phoenix scorer in five contests while posting double-digit efforts in nine games including the last three. Earlier this season against South Dakota State (12/7) she posted her first career double-double, and put a career-high 22 points on the board in a win over UIC last Wednesday.
3. Success Under Borseth: With the win over UIC on Wednesday, head coach Kevin Borseth improved his Horizon League coaching record to 142-13. His teams have now won 37 consecutive Horizon League contests dating back to February 23, 2006, a span that includes perfect 16-0 ledgers the past two seasons of his reign (2006-07 & 2012-13). His last conference loss came against Milwaukee, a team Borseth is 16-6 all-time against, accounting for nearly half of his all-time Horizon League losses (13).
4. Turnover Totals: Strong defensive play while taking care of the ball has been one of the keys to the Phoenix success this season. Green Bay currently averages 13.8 turnovers per game while forcing its competition into 20.6 turnovers per game, a differential of +6.8. Entering the week, Green Bay has a turnover margin of +7.1, good for 12th in the nation.
5. Trophy Buck: Freshman Tesha Buck is making quite an impact in her first season with the Phoenix. Named the Horizon League Freshman of the Week on three occasions this season, her most recent award came after posting a game- and then career-high 17 points and seven rebounds against Wichita State (Dec. 18). She currently leads the league and is 22nd nationally with a 2.5 assist/turnover ratio while also pacing the Phoenix in steals per game (2.0), minutes played (31.3) and standing second in assists per game (3.8).

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo - The family of Rose Acuragi is mourning her loss after Monday's deadly traffic accident near North Carefree and Picturesque Drive. She and Rebecca Robinson were crossing the street and were hit by a car. Robinson's young child is recovering in the hospital.
54 year old Rose Acuragi was a single mom of three grown children and had four grandchildren. I asked her daughter, Danielle Christensen to give me three words to describe Rose. She told me, "Strong, devoted and loving. She loved everybody." Danielle also told me as a single mom, Rose, "Never let us know she was struggling. She made it seem like we were the richest family on earth. We had everything we need."
Rose's father, Richard Coulier described his daughter this way, "She just enjoyed life. She was a good girl. She was working toward getting a bachelor's degree in accounting. I am going to miss her."
Rose's father and her daughter agree on one thing, it was a tragic accident and they don't blame for the driver for Rose's death. Danielle said, "I understand accidents happen and I don't hate you. I have no anger. You have to live everyday with the guilt that it happened. I am sorry for your guilt.
The family also agrees on another important point. They want city traffic to do something about what they think is a potentially dangerous intersection to prevent another family from going through a similar tragedy. Engineers told me that they are looking at possibly safety improvements.
Rose Acuragi didn't have insurance to pay for her funeral arrangements which include cremation. Her family has set up an account for donations at Wells Fargo. You can donate at any branch.
