We thought some time ago about having dedicated key type for handling public key cryptography operations, but did not go that far. Also I did not want to mess-up with GnuPG formats and just made straight-forward RSA implementation, which can be handled by any crypto library, such as openssl. We can easily take GPG signing scheme into use for IMA/EVM when it gets to upstream. - Dmitry > David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Atlantic white-sided dolphins are gregarious, sociable dolphins. They are fast, acrobatic swimmers and can sometimes be seen bow riding astride the bows of vessels, although in some parts of their range the remain weary of ships. Other behaviors include breaching and lobtailing. They surface to breathe every 10 to 15 seconds.
They have a complex color pattern—their dorsal surface (top of the head, neck, back, dorsal fin and tail) is dark grey or black, the side is light grey with a narrow white patch that starts below the dorsal fin and extends along the flank. A yellowish patch is situated behind the white patch and extends to the tail (this yellow patch is a key distinguishing feature of Atlantic white-sided dolphins). They have a dark circle around the eye and narrow strip of light grey that extends from under they eye to their flipper. Their belly, throat and area above the flipper is white.
Atlantic white-sided dolphins form groups that can vary in size from just a few individuals to several hundred. Larger groups often form when several smaller groups merge to migrate, socialize or feed on a plentiful food source.
Atlantic white-sided dolphins are also known to gather in groups that include other toothed whales. For example, Atlantic white-sided dolphins often gather with humpback whales, fin whales, white-beaked dolphins, and long-finned pilot whales.
Although scientists don't know exactly how many Atlantic white-sided dolphins there are in the wild today, the species is not considered to be threatened. Yet despite their stable status, Atlantic white-sided dolphins, like many other marine mammals, are often hunted directly or killed indirectly as bycatch.
Atlantic-white sided dolphins are also sometimes referred to as jumper dolphins, Atlantic white-sided porpoises, springer dolphins or lags (short for "Lagenorhynchus").
During warmer months, Atlantic white-sided dolphins tend to move northward throughout their range. In cooler months they move southward. Additionaly, during the summer they are often found in inshore waters while while during the winter they remain offshore.

What: Class 3A quarterfinal
When: Friday
Kickoff: 7 p.m.
Records: Alcoa (12-0), Christian Academy of Knoxville (11-1)
Radio: Blount Today Sports Radio, WLHR 97.9 FM
The players: Blount Today Sports Radio color analyst Joe Lambert cooed the following as top-ranked Alcoa began to pull well clear of Sweetwater in a Class 3A playoff opener two weeks ago: "They (the Wildcats) really need Rudy right now."
Christian Academy of Knoxville isn't Sweetwater, though, and Friday's visit from the Warriors has a berth in next week's semifinals on the line.
Tornado tailback and Mr. Football finalist Darrell Warren stormed to a big night of 175 yards rushing and five touchdowns on 17 carries in a 50-33 Alcoa win in the District 4AA championship game in Week 10 at Goddard Field. Mr. Football finalist Vanderbilt Hambrick ran for 118 yards and two scores. Fullback Taharin Tyson beat on the Christian Academy defense for 90 yards on 13 carries.
The score withstanding, it was no cakewalk for the Tornadoes.
Christian Academy quarterback Quinn Epperly bombed Alcoa's secondary for 302 yards and five touchdowns on 24-of-49 passing. Davis Howell and Josh Smith both had a pair of scoring catches. Franklin Murchishon had the fifth. It was 23-21 Alcoa at the half.
How it goes down: You really can't change a lot at this point. Six-time defending state champion Alcoa, seeking to extend its 40-game win streak, has been held to less than 250 yards rushing only once this season, and McMinn Central got hammered in that one, 51-0. The Tornadoes still haven't thrown 10 passes in a game in almost three seasons now, and they aren't likely to change that approach for the Warriors.
Epperly wasn't named a finalist for Mr. Football, but you could make a powerful argument he should have been. The Warrior lefty has thrown for 3,252 yards and 42 touchdowns entering the rematch, and the Christian Academy senior missed the Loudon game. Alcoa didn't blitz much, at least initially, in the previous meeting. That's likely to change.

Shake up your beauty regime with our pick of some of the best natural and organic products around.
If you have sensitive skin (or even if you don't), choosing a natural or organic cleanser is a great idea. Free of preservatives, fragrance and alcohol, which can dry out and irritate the skin (especially when you consider you use it twice a day), they still offer the same ultra-cleansing benefits to remove your daily build-up of make-up and grime. We love Neal's Yard Remedies Power Berry Facial Cleanser, £14.80, which packs a potent antioxidant punch (including acai berries, goji berries and rosehips) and is formulated with plant-based detergents and aloe vera to provide skin-softening nourishment without any harsh chemicals.
Oils are a mainstay in many regimes, are the perfect way to dip your toe in the natural skincare market and are ideal for soothing irritated or inflamed skin. One of our favourites has to be Rodin's Olio Russo Facial Oil, £96 (at cultbeauty.co.uk) – the shining star in creator Linda Rodin's all-natural range of luxury oil-based products. Formulated with a blend of 11 essential oils and nothing else (including jasmine, neroil and argan), the products moisturise and nourish the skin beautifully leaving it dewy, plump and perfectly primed for make-up.
Free from artificial ingredients and any chemical nasties, Spiezia Organics' range of products are not only certified organic but help improve the soil fertility and sustainability of the natural resources used. The Organic Intensive Moisturiser, £42.95, allows skin breathe despite being rich and luxurious, while still working on hydrating and brightening your complexion (that's thanks to the carrot oil). A little goes a long way too, so you only need a pea sized amount every night.
Finding a shampoo that cleans efficiently and lathers well, but without the usual chemical sulphates was an impossible find – until now. Liz Earle's Botanical Shine Shampoos and Conditioners (from £8.50) do just that and are free from SLS-SLES (the foaming agents that are traditionally used in hair care), which can irritate sensitive scalps. The range, which now includes treatments too, are packed with botanical ingredients like shea butter and red algae extract to improve shine, manageability and the overall health of your hair. Think of them as the hair care equivalent of the brand's infamous Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser.
If you don't want to put synthetics or artificial ingredients on your face, you might want to think about applying the same philosophy to your body care too. John Masters Organics is a brand that believes caring for the planet and our bodies don't have to be mutually exclusive – the range uses specially grown and harvested organic and natural ingredients from expert farmers all over the world. One of our favourites includes the Blood Orange & Vanilla Body Milk, £18, which hydrates dry skin and soothes with a blend of aloe vera and arnica.

The Edmond City Council approved the preliminary plat 5-0 this week for Kelly Lakes II addition. Plans are for the addition to be located south of Sorghum Mill Road, one-quarter mile east of Kelly.
Kelly Lakes Development LLC plans for 189 single family homes with lot sizes ranging from 6,900 square feet to 10,000 square feet, said Bob Schiermeyer, city planner. The gated community is planned for senior adult living.
The majority of the streets in the 51-acre development are public except at the northeast corner of the plat where a new street will be added.
"The northeast corner of this plat and the street across the detention area will add a new private street to what has been previously approved for the Kelly Lakes Addition," Schiermeyer said. "The intent is to provide a gated access for the senior housing portion of the project."
Kelly Lakes I homeowner Brandon Larson and his family recently moved to the area, he said.
"I have no concerns for them building out," Larson said. "My main objection to the development that's going on right now around my home is it is chaos. It's a mess."
Larson said he is picking up trash every day that blows into his yard. He also asked when the playground area will be built that was promised to him when he purchased his home.
"I've got little kids and they want to play on a playground," Larson said.
Engineer Ernie Isch, representing the developer, said the playground will be built as part of the next phase of development. Two swimming pools have already been installed, Isch said, as a contribution to the homeowners association.

As the self-proclaimed BIGGEST Chiefs fan living in Denver, I have had front row seats for some of the best Donkey Drama in the last few years. I have witnessed many Donkey happenings: Brandon Marshall's multiple Larry Johnson impressions, Jay Cutler being remburesed for his country club membership because he refused to turn his hat around, Jay Cutler's departure, the whole Josh "Mr. Potatoe Head" McDaniels' failed experiment, and the rise and fall of Tim "The Tool" Teebow. People here in Denver have praised him, chanted his name, and have even erected billboards to demand him to start. Broncos' fans have found a personal attachment to Teebow, and all the while I think John Fox and the Denver Broncos organization are setting him up for failure.
Don't get me wrong, I think the kid is an incredible athlete, community activist, and human being, but I also think he has been a product of the 'Hype Machine'. Broncos fans and even many NFL analyists have placed lofty expectations on this young man and given him the reigns of a horrible team.
No, I don't feel sorry for Mr. Teebow and I could never pretend to like the Broncos even if I lived here in Denver for another 3,000-years. I only appreciate the Broncos for the rivalry; I love to hate them (and the Oakland Raiders as well as the San Diego Chargers of course). After the jump I will touch on the newest but oldest craze, 'Teebowing'
Alright surely by now you have heard about 'Teebowing', which is just Tim Teebow dropping to a knee to pray. People let it go, afterallhe is just expressing his Christian faith, which is fine. Heck even Philip Rivers was seen praying on the sideline, but you don't hear people in San Diego calling it 'Rivering'. I am annoyed and frustrated about having to hear about 'Teebowing'every single day. So while I am okay with praying and Tim Teebow's faithand everyone having their own religious expression...I am not okay with anyone renaming 'praying'.
So you can agree or disagree with me, but I want Wikipedia's definition of 'Teebowing' to read as follows:
'Tee-Bow-Ing: (verb) The individual act of knealing to and apologizing to God for playing embarassing football, asking for assistance in dealing with high expectations, or askingGod for enough strength to stay upright and breathing but not so much as to over throw every receiver 10-yards.'
Okay, okay maybe I am being to rough, but really I am just annoyed with everyone in the 'Teebowing' craze. I know Tim Teebow will continue to work hard, pray hard, and play hard, but he can't save the Broncos...which is fine by me!!!
With or without Tim Teebow under center on November 13th, I think our Kansas City Chiefs will continue to WIN! Go Chiefs!!!
Disclaimer: This post is supposed to be light-hearted and funny in mocking the name 'Teebowing' not the act of praying!!! So if you take offense to this post, then you are taking everything wrong.

Nico Rosberg says tires will be the key to the Chinese GP, an event that has always put a big strain on the front left.
Rosberg starts from fourth, separated from teammate Lewis Hamilton by the two Red Bulls.
"It will be a tough race, because the left front tire is a big issue," said Rosberg. "For sure there will be things happening, some people will struggle more than others. I had a good run on Friday, so I'm going into it confidently, knowing that I've this Red Bull package in the middle, which is not very helpful. But that's the way it is, and with the top speed that I have I'm hoping that I manage to get by them somehow.

WILLIAMSTON, Mich. (AP) — Officials have learned that a vial of mercury carried by a 12-year-old boy on his bike broke in June and spilled in the driveway of a high school in Ingham County.
Williamston Superintendent Narda Murphy says the June incident was unknown until the boy became ill and officials learned what happened. She says tests show a small amount of mercury, probably less than a teaspoon.
A spot along the driveway curb will be cleaned Saturday at Williamston High School, east of Lansing.
Amy Ann Moore of the Ingham County Health Department says the mercury belonged to the boy's late grandfather. She says the boy was exposed to mercury all summer from a contaminated duffel bag. His home also was contaminated.
Mercury exposure can cause brain and kidney damage.

The Monmouth County Freeholder Board will mark Arbor Day with a tree planting at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at West Belmar Elementary School, according to a release.
Freeholders will plant a swamp white oak tree. Each student also will receive a tube seedling to plant in his or her own yard, the release says.
Trees of swamp white oak provide cover for birds and mammals. The acorns are sweet and are an important food for wildlife such as squirrels, mice, white-tailed deer and a variety of birds. The crown shape and bi-colored leaves are attractive features. The leaves turn yellow in the fall, with an occasional red-purple, the release says.
"Swamp white oaks are typically planted on highway rights-of-way and are frequently used as shade tree for large lawns, golf courses, parks and naturalized areas," Freeholder Thomas A. Arnone said in the release. "They grow well in areas that are dry or poorly drained and will tolerate soil compaction."
Arbor Day is Friday, April 29. It is a day dedicated to tree planting and increasing awareness of the importance of trees. The first Arbor Day was in 1872.

The Salem News
---- — To the editor:
I read John Crawford's letter ("Fish science clearly supports catch limits," June 21) with some interest. We don't need the Pew Charitable Trusts to spend thousands of dollars to analyze questionable data to tell us what we know. There are no fish out there, at least in the Gulf of Maine. This is contrary to what the National Marine Fisheries Service told us two years ago.
Actually, Iceland has plenty of fish to fly to us on a regular basis and is supplying most of our retail outlets here in New England; so there are fish in the Atlantic. Ask any supplier where their groundfish comes from.
Question: Where have all the fish gone? Overfishing? Doubtful. Consider that NMFS has levied quotas, closures, species limitations, increases in net sizes, tracking programs on fishermen, etc. for several years; couple that with the fact that the fleet has been decreased by approximately 75 percent.
"The Pew Charitable Trusts, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization" doesn't have the answer. Can you tell us why the Icelandic fisheries are so healthy? Have you supported "scientific" measuring of the protected seal populations? Have you supported "scientific" measuring of the quantities of cod/haddock the growing seal population consumes? Have you looked at any other reason for the declining fish populations? Encouraging and protecting the growth of a predatory species that is not endangered can be devastating to the whole food chain and certainly unhealthy for the industry.

Best Steak under $20
I have a craving for beef, but as always, I'm on a budget. Any recs for the best place to get a mouth-watering piece of meat for under $20? Suburbs and chains are excluded, of course, but any other restaurants in Boston, Cambridge, Brookline, etc. will be considered. Please refrain from Boston Chowhound favorites (e.g. NO EAST COAST GRILL!) and I'd prefer not to have to dress up, although that shouldn't be an issue at $20/plate.
T-Bone at the Stockyard: $22 and comes with xtra-crispy fries and a very good vegetable of the day. The salad and bread is boring.
Steak offering at Rendezvous: $20-25 for a smaller but perfect cut (skirt this month, usually sirloin). Frites and salad are as good as anything else they make there.
That's pretty much in your price range, right?
And, for good measure, the booby prize: the $11 "rib-eye steak" at R.F. O'Sullivan's. It's a flavorless, waxy, sinewy embarrassment where you get perhaps less than what you pay for. Entirely regrettable, including the cold and grainy mashed potatoes.
Hey, all. Long-time lurker here-- haven't posted in ages. Just wanted to add Frank's Steak House on Mass Ave in North Cambridge to the list. I'm not sure if it's considered a "favorite" of the posters here, but it really fits the bill. The Big Frank's is an 18-ounce sirloin for about $18 or $19 and comes with salad, starch, and I believe a veg as well. The King Cut prime rib is so big it's almost too much. Great neighborhood place with waitresses who call you "hon." Just a very welcoming place with good people and an enjoyable atmosphere. (Especially if you like plasma TV's, piano, and Keno along with your budget-priced steak.)
Hope this adds to the discussion!
Also, check out Tango on Mass Ave in Arlington Center. Great Argentinian place with an extensive wine list. It came highly acclaimed by a chef friend of mine who lives in the A-R-L. The (giant, and presumably Argentinian) chef comes to your table and asks how you're enjoying things (must be the neighborhood-- the chef/owner at La Buona Vita next door does the same) and banters with you. We hadn't finished everything by the time he came over so he busted chops by asking with mock indignation "What, you no like my food?" Good food, good atmosphere. Hold on a sec, let me get the menu. . .
[45 seconds later]
We started with the Champinones Portabella, a sauteed mushroom (Guess what variety? Good guess.) dish with cheese baked on the top and olive oil, garlic, S&P, and balsamic vinegar (quite good, and she doesn't really dig mushrooms, so I benefited.) Also had the Recoleta, a prosciutto, mozzarella, red onion, tomato, and red pepper dish that was pretty good. (Rant: Disappointed that the tomatoes were not late-August/early-September ripe. In fact, they were mealy-- you know the kind-- but, then again, I'm frequently disappointed in the quality of tomatoes served in restaurants and at salad bars. There should be a rule against serving tomatoes that have the consistency of apples. Especially in late summer. Just don't bother, okay? Okay. End rant.)
We shared the Entrana ($18.45), a nice, tasty grilled medium-rare flank steak with Chimichurri sauce,along with the Medallon al Roquefort ($24.95) which came recommended by the waiter. Nice m-r filet mignon with (You guessed right again-- you're smart.) roquefort cheese on top. Delicious. Some nicely-seasoned potatoes on the side. A really delicious bottle of Malbec recommended by the waiter accompanied the meal. I recommend it and plan to go again in the near future.
Had the Steak Onglet Frites at Chez Henri on Friday ($23.95), which was outstanding. Garlic, smoked tomato, and Chimichurri. Great fries, with a nice reduction sauce for dipping. More than $20, but the extra $4 is worth it, in my opinion.
And if I'm not mistaken, Eastern Standard has a couple of steaks for relatively short dough-- I know they have a hangar steak for $20 or $22 and maybe another choice as well. They've always cooked it well (I should say "properly") and I've always enjoyed it.
And for about $26, the steak frites at Central Kitchen is excellent. A ribeye that's properly done, with frites that are the best in town. Again, not sure if these are considered Chowhound favorites (I suspect Chez Henri, Eastern Standard, and Central Kitchen are, but maybe not necessarily for steak), but I really enjoy the steaks there so am offering them as options at or near the $20 price range.

Gary D. Schmidt is not writing good books – he is writing good literature. "Okay for Now" is secretly a rich love story disguised as a narrative for young adults. In fact, this one shouldn't be limited to just YA. The local Barnes and Noble made it their pick because the manager there loved it. In my opinion everyone should read more YA; the YA novels are rich! Every time I read a novel written for adults I go screaming back to the YA stuff.
Others have reviewed "Okay for Now"; SLJ has a good one. Or you can watch Schmidt himself talk about the book in this video. (Video Link)
I would just like to go on record as saying Schmidt is absolutely the best at bringing characters to life. He is the master of the writing rule "show don't tell". Doug Swieteck's mom, especially, is never analyzed in the novel, yet you know her. Your heart breaks for her. She never says it but you feel her strength and true love for her family. "[Love] always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." (1 Corinthians 13:7)
And make sure you read the opening dedication to Schmidt's wife, Anne. I am certain that the end of the book, especially, is really a love letter to her. According to this 2006 article in "The Calvin Spark" Gary himself is a cancer survivor.
Around this time, Schmidt also experienced a miracle of another kind. "It was 10 years ago — '96, I guess. I had gone to the doctor and they had said infection, infection. And they had given me some medication which helped a little bit," Schmidt recalled. "I was actually in the lab theater, and I was watching the mystery plays, and suddenly I knew this was a lot more than an infection." It was lymphatic cancer.
"You hear all the percentages, and they're not fun to hear," he continued. The routine of chemotherapy helped him beat the disease, though, and provided him with manifold sources of inspiration: his fellow patients. "Maybe that's why today in my job, I cannot stand whining or fussing," he said. "I mean these were people who were going to die. They were hooked up to machines with stuff oozing out of them, and I never, never once heard them complain or fuss."
So, Gary, you didn't make me love drawing. I confess I skimmed those parts of the book; regardless I will never look at an Audubon again without seeing it as Doug did. But knowing that you, Gary, fought cancer tells me that the ending of the book was clearly personal. It didn't make me cry, it made me weep. It was a love story much deeper than the book itself. I finished the book and immediately went and kissed my husband. That's okay for now…but the real love is in the trusting, hoping and persevering, isn't it?

Tribune-Star correspondent
In just over an hour, the field for the 2013 Indianapolis 500 was complete on Bump Day at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday.
Josef Newgarden was the fastest second-day qualifier, while Katherine Legge became the 33rd car in the field, and a devastated Michel Jourdain Jr. never got the chance to make the race.
Newgarden's qualifying run averaged 225.731 which put him on the inside of row nine.
Legge logged just 20 laps before qualifying in the third entry for Schmidt Peterson Motorsports. Legge's seat was confirmed less than 48 hours before she took her qualifying run, which averaged 223.176. She sat in her car most of the final hour of qualifying, ready to make another attempt if Jourdain bumped her from the field.
Rahal-Lettermen-Lanigan spent most of the day trying to get a car drivable enough for Jourdain to make a qualifying attempt.
Jourdain's car had issues all week, and he nearly lost control Sunday when the team tried to use a setup from teammate James Jakes' car. The team changed it to Graham Rahal's setup, but it was not any better.
Rahal himself, instead of working on race trim for his own car, took Jourdain's car out for a run. He could do nothing with it either. While the engine was fine, the car had no handling so the team made change after change all day — including a new rear wing and undertray — but nothing worked.
At 5:44 p.m., Jourdain climbed from the car. Clearly distraught, Jourdain could hardly find the words.
"The guys tried so hard. Some days it felt better, but it was never there. We changed whatever we could. It was just impossible to drive. I mean couldn't go flat-out," the driver said. "The only thing was do something stupid and put the car in the wall, you know … not make the race anyway, so there's no point in that."
Legge, relieved that she did not have to make another qualifying run, felt for Jourdain. "Obviously, it is not nice for him not to have the opportunity, but I am happy to be in the field," she said. "I do feel really bad for him."
Schmidt, Legge's owner, also felt for Jourdain, but praised his driver's effort.
"This place creates all kinds of emotions. My heart just goes out to Bobby [Rahal] and Michel, but [Legge] was all in and loved the car. I know she's a finisher and doesn't matter where she starts," Schmidt said. Last year, Legge started 30th but finished in 22nd place.
Buddy Lazier, the 1996 Indy 500 winner, also made the field in the 32nd starting slot with a four-lap average of 223.442.
The 45-year-old has not raced since the cars were the old Indy Racing League cars. In his last Indy 500 in 2008, Lazier also started in 32nd place but finished 17th. The Lazier Partners Racing entry did not get track time until Friday. "We were definitely sweating it today. It's a huge learning curve, but a lot of fun," he said.
Another driver who had to make the field Sunday was rookie Conor Daly. Daly crashed on Thursday, got no track time on Friday because of rain, and was unable to make the top 24 on Pole Day. He turned in four consistent laps about 223 for an average of 223.582. He was not happy about starting 31st on the grid and wanted to go back out to try again. "We were just too slow. I compete to win," he said.
Newgarden was the top Honda qualifier of the day, while Lazier was the slowest Chevrolet. Sebastian Saavedra was the only other Chevy of the second-day qualifiers.
There will be no on-track activity until Thursday, when the Indy Lights begin practice and qualifying for the Firestone Freedom 100.

Whether it is kicking a football over the crossbar for an extra point or kicking a soccer ball under the crossbar for a goal, El Diamante junior Joey Chica has the powerful left leg to get the job done.
If you ask Chica whether an extra point or penalty kick is easier, he'll say a penalty kick without hesitation.
"Kicking a penalty kick is way easier than a field goal," he said. "On a penalty kick, it is just me and the goalie. On a field goal, you have to worry about those big guys coming after you. I'm worried about that and I'm hoping my leg doesn't get hurt."
In his first year at El Diamante, Chica has had a positive effect on both the football and soccer teams.
On the gridiron, Chica played an important role. According to the stats on MaxPreps.com, he finished with 35 extra points, but more importantly, he consistently kicked the ball off into the end zone for touchbacks and prevented opposing teams from making big plays on special teams.
His impact has been much more noticeable on the pitch.
He already set the school's single-season goal record. The previous record was 17. Chica is already up to 25 goals with three regular season games and the postseason left on the schedule.
Chica transferred to El Diamante from Hanford High School.
El Diamante boys soccer coach Agustin Gonzalez said he was excited when he found out Chica was going to be a Miner.
"I was on campus and I saw him walking and I said, 'What are you doing here?' He said, 'I go here.' I've seen him play. Everybody knows the kid. I was excited and nervous at the same time. I was worried the boys would just want to look for Chica, but the boys and him have adapted to how we want to play."
Chica said the move to Visalia was a family decision. It wasn't easy at first, but football and soccer allowed him to adjust to life at a new school.
"It was tough at first, leaving my friends, but I knew it had to be done," Chica said. "I had to come with my family. I had to make new friends just like anybody else would. At first, it was hard to make friends, but I knew a few guys I played club soccer with. I knew I could hang out with them and slowly make friends as the days went by."
The Miners are happy to have him. Along with a talented group of young players, Chica has the Miners in contention for their first WYL title in soccer.
El Diamante is 7-2 in league and trails Golden West by one game in the standings.
"If you look at the stats, he has [22] assists as well," Gonzalez said. "If you look at him, he doesn't try to force it. He goes with the flow of the game, and when he gets that ball in space, you see that razzle dazzle he has."
Chica is a junior, so he still has time to figure out what he wants to do in the future.
He is listed at 5-foot-7 and 140 pounds on the El Diamante football roster -- both figures might be a little generous -- but plays much larger than that because of the cannon he has as a left leg.
Kicking for a college football team is something that might be in Chica's future, but he would prefer to play soccer at the collegiate level.
He said he has already been in some contact with UC Davis, nothing major, but it is a start.
In the meantime, he is hoping to lead the Miners somewhere they have never been: the top of the WYL.
"It has been a fun year," Chica said. "We started rough because we're young. As the days have gone by, coach has told us to mature more and to take this more seriously. Do that and the wins will start coming."
A look ahead
Here are some story lines to keep an eye on as the final week of the regular season nears:
Mustangs eyeing postseason: The Tulare Western boys need one more win to clinch a berth in the postseason. They are 4-2-1 in the East Yosemite League and 9-7-4.
"It would be huge," Tulare Western coach Michael Capote said. "We lost quite a few seniors and only had one or two guys back who played quality minutes. It would be huge to make the playoffs because we were pretty green to start the year."
It won't be easy to get that one win. The Mustangs close out the season against Mission Oak, Monache and rival Tulare Union.
EYL girls race coming down to the wire: The Tulare Union girls move closer and closer to an eighth straight East Yosemite League title with each passing win. They defeated Delano 5-0 on Wednesday to improve to 6-0-1 in league. Hoping to derail those title hopes will be crosstown rivals Mission Oak and Tulare Western. The Redskins do get both teams at home Feb. 5 and Feb. 7, respectively.
Rangers one win away: The Redwood girls are one win away from winning a second straight WYL title outright. The Rangers already clinched a share of the title thanks to rival Mt. Whitney's 3-0 win over Lemoore. Redwood's first chance to seal the deal is today at Golden West. Redwood then closes out the regular season at Mt. Whitney on Feb. 8.
Back-to-back for the Trailblazers: Golden West shared the WYL boys championship with Mt. Whitney last year. They would love nothing more than to win it outright this year. That outcome may have to wait until the final day of the regular season when they host El Diamante on Feb. 8. If Golden West can beat Redwood and Lemoore in its next two games, it would assure itself of at least a share of another WYL title.
EYL up for grabs : With the Monache boys losing their first EYL game of the season against Mission Oak, it put Delano directly in the driver's seat for the EYL title. If Delano was able to beat Tulare Union on Wednesday, it would move into first place.
Monache hosts Delano on Friday. The winner of that game will likely go on to win the league title.
