I have a Catalina 25 on a trailer with roller furler and Genoa 150. I use an A frame to step the mast and have a crutch in the stern with a roller. I can raise/lower with cockpit winch by myself. Roller on crutch allows me to disconnect the mast at the step and walk it forward to store for travel. I use the halyards to wrap the rolled sail to the mast. A frame and crutch are easily stored in the salon or truck bed.

Timberland progressive eyeglasses are a great choice for those who don't want to sacrifice style in the name of vision. Progressive eyeglasses, otherwise known as no-line bifocals, work more or less like traditional bifocal eyeglasses, except the average consumer can't even tell they're bifocals. That's because the distinctive line that separates the reading lens from the traditional lens in bifocals is not present in progressive eyeglasses, giving these types of Timberland prescription eyeglasses a more modern, youthful feel. You'll still be able to see close-range text and images clearly with your pair of Timberland progressive lens eyeglasses, and distance viewing will be equally as easy, but no one will be able to tell that you need reading glasses. Progressive lenses fit easily in most Timberland eyeglass frames, which are themselves designed to be both stylish and durable, adequate for use at home or in the wilderness. If reading glasses are a necessity for you but looking old isn't, consider purchasing a pair of Timberland progressive glasses to keep you looking good, whether you're looking down at a book or looking sharp at the bar.

Flammability and Explosibility
Carbon tetrachloride is noncombustible. Exposure to fire or high temperatures may lead to formation of phosgene, a highly toxic gas.
Reactivity and Incompatibility
Carbon tetrachloride may react explosively with reactive metals such as the alkali metals, aluminum, magnesium, and zinc. It can also react violently with boron and silicon hydrides, and upon heating with DMF.
Storage and Handling
Carbon tetrachloride should be handled in the laboratory using the "basic prudent practices" described in Chapter 5.C.
In the event of skin contact, immediately wash with soap and water and remove contaminated clothing. In case of eye contact, promptly wash with copious amounts of water for 15 min (lifting upper and lower lids occasionally) and obtain medical attention. If carbon tetrachloride is ingested, obtain medical attention immediately. If large amounts of this compound are inhaled, move the person to fresh air and seek medical attention at once.
In the event of a spill, soak up carbon tetrachloride with a spill pillow or absorbent material, place in an appropriate container, and dispose of properly. Respiratory protection may be necessary in the event of a large spill or release in a confined area.
Excess carbon tetrachloride and waste material containing this substance should be placed in an appropriate container, clearly labeled, and handled according to your institution's waste disposal guidelines. For more information on disposal procedures, see Chapter 7 of this volume.

Hasbro's plan
This was just a bit of a fun project, share it around if you enjoyed it! The idea came about around the time 'Fighting is Magic' got a C&D warning. I'll admit, the concept wasn't my idea, some guy on facebook mentioned it'd be cool to do something like this, and so I did!
The clip is taken from 'The Incredibles (2004)', which one of old my favourite movies.
Just a note that there is some poetic license used in this, a couple of the projects I mentioned don't actually exist.
Adobe After Effects was used to create the video.

Squire Sanders Wins LTN Innovation Award Using Equivio Predictive Coding Technology
KENSINGTON, Md., Jan. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Equivio, a provider of analytical solutions for eDiscovery, today announced that global law firm Squire Sanders (US) LLP has received the 2012 Most Innovative Use of Technology in a Law Firm award by Law Technology News (LTN). The firm was selected for its Intelligent Discovery Process (IDP) approach to eDiscovery. As a part of the Intelligent Discovery Process, Squire Sanders utilizes Equivio's Relevance application for predictive coding, together with other technologies and innovative workflow design, to engineer a highly effective and defensible eDiscovery strategy. .
"We congratulate Squire Sanders on winning the LTN innovation award," said Amir Milo, CEO of Equivio. "As a pioneer among law firms in understanding the need to harness predictive coding to reduce review volumes and costs, Squire Sanders is at the forefront of redefining the way litigators perform electronic discovery."
The aim of Squire Sanders' Intelligent Discovery Process was to develop defensible methods for reducing the volume of billable hours associated with document review projects, while ensuring the quality of document review. Using Equivio's predictive coding technology, in conjunction with other technologies and its innovative workflow, Squire Sanders' IDP has saved dozens of Squire Sanders' clients millions of dollars, while at the same time enhancing the quality, defensibility and transparency of the eDiscovery process.
"Equivio's predictive coding technology is a major component in our intelligent discovery workflow," said Robert Singleton, Director of eDiscovery and Data Management at Squire Sanders. "Using this technology as the cornerstone of a broader process, we are able to minimize the cost of human review while defensibly ensuring that the vast majority of relevant documents are discovered."Equivio's Relevance application leverages predictive coding technology to organize a collection of documents by relevance. The application is "trained" by one or more attorneys to find relevant and privileged documents. Following this initial training, Relevance uses statistical and self-learning techniques to calculate graduated relevance scores for each document in the data collection. This enables informed early case assessment, precise data culling, prioritized review and systematic QA for human review.

I am so happy that our "progress" in education has brought us to the level of math where counting on the fingers is celebrated. The fact is that math facts make all of these little cute tricks a waste of time.
This Arkansas mom explains to the Arkansas State School Board how a math problem is solved in Fourth grade CCSS aligned curriculum:
I have a Math question for you board members, are you ready? Get your pencils out. I'm not kidding. Are you smarter than a Common Core fourth grader? Let's find out. The problem is: Mr. Yamato's class has 18 students. If a class counts around by a number, and it ends with 90, what number did they count by? I'll restate the problem. If a class counts around by a number, and it ends with 90, what number did they count by?
Does anyone on the Board have an answer? (Board member says "5"). That's right! And may I ask, Madam, how did you come up with that answer? (Board member says she divides 18 into 90 and comes up with the answer "5"). You know why? Because that's what makes sense, right? That's the way we were taught to do it at the fourth grade level.
This (holds up worksheet), however, is what the Common Core expects our fourth graders to do. If they solve it in those two steps they get it marked wrong. They are expected to draw 18 circles with 90 hash marks in exactly 108 steps. Board members, this is not rigorous. This is not college ready. This is not preparing our children to work in a global economy. Skipping rote memorization tables of multiplication tables is hindering their ability to master long division and fractions later on in the semester.
Now our children who were testing in the 80th or higher percentile in math last year are now coming home with Cs, Ds and Fs on their report cards. Not because as Arne Duncan would put it, "it's the white suburban mothers who think their children aren't as brilliant as they thought they were", but because….(interrupted by Board member for time)…thank you.
I encourage you to listen to us when we send you our emails despite the comments that were made by our Chairperson here today. Our concerns are not based on hysteria or propaganda, they are based on fact and we are prepared to present those facts.
Can you see the trembling in my voice? Parents have not had a voice here and you need to listen to our concerns. We are moving forward with our legislature to make some very serious changes to this and all I ask is you bend your ear and take us seriously. We are college educated parents and I come to you with 12 years of college education and a former member of the National Honor Society when I tell you this is not working. It's not what they told you it would be. We will save the privacy concerns and our testing concerns for our legislature. But when it comes to standards, that's your ball court, and we need you to help us with this, because this is dumbing our children down. Thank you.
There is no video I could find showing the Chairman of the Board's comment that the mom referenced. The State Board Chairman is Brenda Gullett. From the Arkansas State Board of Education website:
Brenda Gullett, a former state legislator, wants the State Board to do everything it can to "support and empower" schools as they implement the Common Core standards. "I believe that this board has taken tough stands to resist educational options that would not be in the best interest of the students," Gullett says. "I am very proud of that."
Gullett belongs to the National Association of School Boards (NASBE) and has been involved with the National Governor's Association (NGA) in its support of the CCSS Initiative. She was a moderator at a NASBE conference with attendees including Linda Darling-Hammond, David Coleman, and Missouri President of the State School Board, Peter Herschend. The sessions were sponsored by such organizations such as:
Could an Arkansas citizen obtain the video or transcript with Ms. Gullett stating that CCSS concerns are based on hysteria or propaganda? This mom shows what CCSS looks like implemented in 4th grade math. It doesn't look hysterical or like propaganda to me, does it to you?
Is Ms. Gullett relying on propaganda when she states her support of the standards? Where is the research and data on which she bases her support of the corporate push of the standards? Can she prove that the math problem the mom referenced is developmentally appropriate, ensure college readiness (for a 4 year university) and prepare kids for a global workforce? Where is her data proving those claims?
I am so happy that our "progress" in education has brought us to the level of math where counting on the fingers is celebrated. The fact is that math facts make all of these little cute tricks a waste of time.
The quote about white suburban moms who — all of a sudden — their child isn't as brilliant as they thought they were comes from Arne Duncan, US Secretary of Education.
It clearly states that in the article. But thanks.
I'm from Arkansas, and I've read some of Brenda Gullett's emails. She does say that all the hype against Common Core is just from propaganda.
Several in my group have emailed the state school board and the governor's office and gotten an identical response from Ms. Gullett, which was copied and pasted from the Common Core website. You know, Common Core is just standards, state-led, blah, blah, blah.
I haven't seen a video of her response to the math question yet.
The comment from the board member that we can't hear, I believe, was just a reminder that the speaker's alotted time to speak–3 min.– was up. Good video. Credible evidence of the "dumbing down" that is Common Core.
Here's a link to the meeting. Hope this helps. You can watch the video. I didn't have time to watch the whole thing to find the comments you were looking for.
I avoid snarky as much as possible online, but this speech and the supportive reactions to its viral social media slog really beg me to ask of its author—
"Do you think you can get a refund for the cost of that 12 years of college education you say you've got? Because your confusion about things learning—as evidenced by your speech—pretty much contradict your claims that the downward spiral of public education will begin with Common Core (and not earlier)."
Don't get me wrong: I am against the current deployment of Common Core standards throughout public education for reasons of morality and utility.
Which is why I blench when I see opponents ineptly attempt to counter it with misguided and irrelevant arguments which only seek to perpetuate a status quo in much need of improvement.
This Arkansas parent (fairly eloquently) protests Common Core based on her assertion that a 4th grade math lesson requires students to utilize 108 steps to solve a division problem:
"I have a Math question for you board members, are you ready? Get your pencils out. I'm not kidding. Are you smarter than a Common Core fourth grader? Let's find out. The problem is: Mr. Yamato's class has 18 students. If a class counts around by a number, and it ends with 90, what number did they count by? I'll restate the problem. If a class counts around by a number, and it ends with 90, what number did they count by?
"Does anyone on the Board have an answer? (A board member says '5'). That's right! And may I ask, Madam, how did you come up with that answer? (The board member says she divides 18 into 90 and comes up with the answer '5'). You know why? Because that's what makes sense, right? That's the way we were taught to do it at the fourth grade level."
Wait! One-hundred-and-eight steps to "solve" this problem! What the hell is she talking about?
Then it struck me that Ms. Lamoreaux is confusing the learning process with the algorithm used to solve such problems: the students aren't taking 108 steps to solve this straightforward division process (straightforward, at least, to we adults); they are engaging in a process that uses 108 pencil marks on paper to understand the concept of division of large numbers, or, rather, sharing, which is what the lesson is about.
This methodology is no different than using the example of dividing a pizza four ways to understand division and fractions, something every math teacher does; in this case, we're just using a much larger pizza to demonstrate that division also works on "large" numbers as well.
While she claims Common Core is "dumbing" down our children, I have to wonder how her "12 years of post-secondary education and once being in NHS," fails her when it comes to seeing the difference between the number of steps it takes to learn and understand a concept and the number of steps we use in the algorithm when solving the problem on the page or the office computer.
Either this mom is intentionally misrepresenting the Common Core lesson to further her agenda or she is ignorant of the learning process. Either way, she needs to get out of the way of those who can competently debate the pros and cons of education policy and practice.
Thanks James. I don't think that the common core was done well. I also understand that most people do not understand math well enough to make a proper critique. People keep saying that it was find the old way. The same people who do not like that their children can never get algebra and joke about it as if it were mystical. The common core's goal is algebraic in focus. The reason you don't just teach a kid 90/18=5 is simple if you 1) understand math having taking advanced level math and 2) having taught in public schools. I am not sure how many have done those but I have. It is not a perfect system but here is the thing. A kid who can quickly tell you that 90/18=5 can be very inept when asked years later (15+x)/18=5 what is x. The answer is quite simple when you really understand division. But most kids do not. So the algebra teacher spends a lot of time teaching "the simple" "straight forward" way of solving said problem. Then student gets to Calculus and has no clue what is going on. Because at no point along the way did she or he have to understand math. Just because some people are good at it and figure it out, does not mean all will. I did not understand that we have a base ten numeric system until I was in second grade and my dad challenged me to count to a thousand. That was a 1,000 step math problem, how dare he!!! Oh but then I went on to be a pretty good math student the rest of my life. Sometimes you need a lot of steps to understand. It is that simple.
Also, the old way was not develop by teachers and NCLB was just as impractical and money driven as this system is. Stop acting like your political rivals are the only ones influenced by the wealthy and powerful. Everyone is. The old way has been complained about by the national council of teachers of mathematics for years, at least for Texas standards. Because no one is asking mathematicians everyone thinks it should be common sense as if they understand math and then will wonder why their children are as equally inept at math as they are.
I understand that you will hate this and call me a fascist or Obama lover, or idiot. You will nitpick the grammatical mistakes to prove said argument. But I hope that you will make better arguments in the future instead of just relying on tired arguments and character attacks. I believe you all are concerned intelligent people. Let's work together to get at the better solution and not cling to the old way.

Radiance Brightening Facial Wash is a good, inexpensive water-soluble cleanser best for normal to combination skin. Its foaming action and gentle cleansing agents work to create a texture many people prefer, while the cleansing agents ably remove excess oil and makeup without drying skin.
This missed our top rating because the formula contains a fragrant plant oil that makes this tricky to use around the eyes, not to mention the problem it presents for sensitive skin. (Those with truly sensitive skin should avoid all fragrance in skin-care products, and that's a good guideline for everyone to follow.) It also contains the formaldehyde-releasing preservative 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol, which isn't the best for sensitive skin, but in a rinse-off product it's less of a concern.
Simple's skin-care statement is as follows: "Our philosophy is: Simple says—never use perfumes, dyes or harsh irritants that can upset your skin. Simple says—settle for only the purest possible ingredients. Simple says—trust the natural goodness in all of our products especially for sensitive skin." That's a good philosophy, but, unfortunately, most of Simple's products don't live up to their lofty goals. There are fragrant ingredients in many of their products; there are potentially irritating preservatives in some of their products; their sun-protection products contain synthetic sunscreen ingredients, which aren't the best for sensitive skin; and many of their ingredients are not natural. (We know their claim of natural goodness doesn't state outright that they use only natural ingredients, but that's what they imply, and many consumers will believe it.)
Our Radiance Brightening Facial Wash is a perfect blend of ingredients and light reflecting particles to help to cleanse and remove impurities and leave skin visibly brightened. Perfect for even sensitive skin.
Aqua, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Stearic Acid, Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Sorbitol, Glycerin, Acrylates/Palmeth-25 Acrylate Copolymer, Disodium Lauryl Sulfosuccinate, Zea Mays Starch, Panthenol, Mangifera Indica Extract, Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Disodium EDTA, Titanium Dioxide, Dipropylene Glycol, 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1,3-Diol, Anthemis Nobilis Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Oil, Methylparaben, Propylparaben
Simple is a United Kingdom–based skin-care line whose self-described claim to fame is that they're the "pre-eminent brand of skincare and toiletries products developed especially for sensitive skin." They also claim to be the United Kingdom's No. 1 skin care-brand, as measured by units sold, and given the line's wide distribution and low price point, the sales figures are probably accurate. But, although their sales claim may be accurate, Simple's claims about their products being good for sensitive skin are spurious at best because too many of the ingredients are completely inappropriate for sensitive skin.
Simple skin care states the following: "Our philosophy is: Simple says - never use perfumes, dyes or harsh irritants that can upset your skin. Simple says - settle for only the purest possible ingredients. Simple says - trust the natural goodness in all of our products especially for sensitive skin." Although that's a good philosophy, most Simple products don't live up to their lofty goals. There are fragrant ingredients in many of their products, they use potentially irritating preservatives in some of their products, their sun protection products use synthetic sunscreen ingredients which aren't the best for sensitive skin, and many of their ingredients are not natural (we know their claim of natural goodness doesn't say outright that they only use natural ingredients but many consumers will think that's what's being implied)
Unfortunately, there are no standards in Europe or anywhere else that regulate which cosmetic products can be deemed suitable for sensitive skin and which cannot. Therefore, any company can make that claim for its products, regardless of what the products contain. It's not all bad news though, as several of Simple's products are fragrance-free, which is a key starting point for all skin types, especially sensitive skin.
As mentioned above, the price point for Simple is low; in fact, it is one of the least expensive cosmetic brands you'll find in the United Kingdom (and a small assortment of their products are sold in the U.S., too). We are all for consumers getting more for their money, but in most cases with Simple you're being shortchanged, and that's not the way to save money. Most of their products are either very basic or the frills and good ingredients are but a dusting in an otherwise ordinary formula. There are few outstanding products in this line, which is similar throughout the industry.
The anti-aging products are a great example of Simple's combination of low prices and lofty claims, with nary an ingredient on the list capable of delivering any benefit over and above a Band-Aid®. Even the most state-of-the-art moisturizers and anti-aging products won't bring about a significant reduction in wrinkles or other signs of aging, but using well-formulated products (and they don't have to be expensive) helps a great deal. Overall the folks behind Simple took their name too literally.

Tow Mirrors
Posted 11 September 2013 - 06:44 PM
Posted 11 September 2013 - 09:37 PM
The '14 and the '13 mirror bracket have different shape. i don't think it will fit....
haven't seen the '14 with tow mirror yet..
Posted 12 September 2013 - 09:51 PM
Anyone have any part numbers or info on tow mirrors for the '14s? Or if the '13 mirrors fit?
Towing mirrors are available on 2WT trucks with Z82 trailering pkg, and are required with NHT Max Trailering Package on 1LT and 1LZ, which are the only trims NHT is available on.
Also, unless GM develops accessory towing mirrors for these trucks, standard mirrors aren't swappable for camper mirrors:
Some owners may request to change their original mirror option to the campermirror option. When a truck is ordered from the factory with the Camper Mirror option — RPO DF2 or DPN, a larger door reinforcement patch is built into the door. This larger door reinforcement patch provides additional support for the added load of the camper mirrors. Additionally, camper mirrors have a fourth mounting attachment bolt that the standard mirrors — RPO DE2, DL8 or DL3 do not use. A truck built from the factory with standard mirrors will not have this additional fourth hole in the door to mount the camper mirrors. At this time it is recommended to NOT install camper mirrorson a truck built with standard mirrors.

I have an 8' wide travel trailer, and I can not see around it with the standard truck mirrors. I had aftermarket slide on mirrors for my 2010 Tahoe, but they are not yet available for the new 2014s. I searched everywhere for a solution, but in the end, I decided the factory tow mirrors had the best visibility, and weren't as ugly as the aftermarket strap ons. Down the road, new alternatives will become available, but they are not here now. Good luck.
Posted 02 January 2014 - 11:52 AM
And I had to have my salesman add the mirrors to my Max Tow Package. They were not something that was "checkable" when I built it on the Chevrolet web site.

Anyone have experience with the aftermarket to mirrors? They are half the price of the oem ones.
i bought after market towing mirrors for my 02 silverado. i bought mirrors that went on a 03-07 classic for the signal mirrors and i had them for about a year before i traded them in and i had no issues with them. they were plug and play (although i had to rewire them since i bought the wrong year model mirrors.
Edit: mine were from ebay and they were around 200 for both or maybe 250.

Bought aftermarket tows off amazon for 150 a piece back when I had my 03 Silverado and they were great for the price,easy install and looked like factory mirrors. Only problem was the passenger mirror would shake a little bit at highway speeds

I sure hope they end up looking good on the truck....I ordered my 6.2 with max trailer 2 weeks ago and went with the tow mirrors also. I am hoping that if they don't look good that they will be easy to swap out with the standard mirrors.
Not sure if that will work. I know you can't go the other way as the tow mirrors on the 14 have 4 mounting holes instead of 3 on the standard mirror. The door is also reinforced on the trucks with factory tow mirrors.

Desiree Rogers
CEO, Johnson Publishing
In less than two years, Desiree Rogers reworked Johnson Publishing's circulation model, increased advertising and oversaw a major overhaul of Ebony Magazine in print and on the Web.
When CEO Desiree Rogers began with Johnson Publishing 18 months ago, she walked into a challenge. "What I really found was a company in mourning. We lost both our founders, and we needed to restore our brands, Lady Jet and Lady Ebony," she tells FOLIO:.
Rogers, whose previous experience includes a stint as White House social secretary during President Barack Obama's tenure, contends the rather complicated business of publishing can be broken down into three pillars: Consumer/editorial, circulation and advertising sales. Within the first weeks as Johnson Publishing CEO, resuscitating circ became a main focus.
"For years, we had been up and down on circ. We had gotten into a pattern where it was unclear whether or not we would deliver on our circulation numbers," says Rogers. "After we focused on the circ process, we decided to make an investment in a circ partner."
Circulation is now outsourced, and Rogers says the publisher consistently over-delivered on circ numbers throughout 2011. Another win for Johnson Publishing came in July, when JPMorgan Chase's Special Investments Group bought an equity stake in the company. The size of the investment was not released, but the capital would be infused in both the print and digital side of the business.
A redesign for Ebony in-book and online transpired in 2011, along with a refocus on cultivating advertising client relationships.
"It's not about selling pages; it's about developing relationships where clients are understanding how we can be the conduit to Black America. We have 23 million readers between two publications and our websites," says Rogers. "I've been on sales calls in the first quarter to hear what clients want from us, and then working on strategic programs that allows them to really continue the partnership."Â
VITAL STATS: The February 2012 issue of Ebony increased 46 percent in ad pages, with new advertising partners such as Smirnoff, Smart Water and Verizon, among others.

LosOjos (14th March 2013)
This Register article is very good and should give a few ideas to schools (and members) who want to do something special with their Pi: Ten pi-fect projects for your new Raspberry Pi ? The Register
I'd do the arcade table is I was able to anything with wood that didn't involve splitting it and leaving exposed nails everywhere!
LosOjos (14th March 2013)
I've been meaning to make a NAS/Cloud storage system out of a Pi for a while, the thought of an arcade table had crossed my mind too. I'd never seen the ability to transmit FM radio before though... funnily enough, I was thinking about how one would go about doing that just the other day as my shower radio picks up very few stations and I mostly hate the music on the radio anyway. Wonder if I could set one up to transmit my iTunes library... in Africa, of course!
I keep meaning to do something with my pi but im not sure yet. may have to think of something for the holiday.

After Oregon State's victory against Arizona State on Saturday, Beavers defensive lineman Curtis Coker said his team was fired up thanks to an incident during pregame warm-ups.
One problem: The incident never happened, coaches from both schools said on Tuesday, when USA Today detailed Coker's version of events, first mentioned in The Oregonian on Sunday.
"In no way did Arizona State disrespect the Oregon State football program during the pregame," Oregon State coach Mike Riley said in a statement. "In no way did ASU interrupt our warm-ups."
Coker said the Sun Devils, while running back to their locker room, trotted through Oregon State's field-goal formation, adding that he and ASU quarterback Rudy Carpenter exchanged words.
"Why would I let them do that in my house?" Coker said. "So I was going to show them how it is, and Rudy Carpenter goes, 'Oh, No. 98, you're a bad (dude), aren't you?' I said, 'Oh, yeah? You remember No. 98, because I'm going to tattoo it on your backside!' "
At Reser Stadium, both teams head to and from their locker rooms through the same tunnel. At the same time the Sun Devils headed off, Oregon State's band was on the sideline, preventing ASU from leaving the field via that route.
Sun Devils coach Dirk Koetter said his assistant coaches formed a chain, allowing his team to pass between the OSU players and band without making contact.
"There was no altercation," Koetter said. "The closest person to their team was me. We asked (Oregon State) to look into it, and it was just one of their players popping off about something. . . .
"It didn't happen. I was there."
ASU and Colorado evidently enjoyed playing each other so much earlier this season that the two schools have agreed to get together more.
The schools announced on Tuesday they will play in Boulder in 2013 and Sun Devil Stadium in 2018. ASU won at Colorado 21-3 on Sept. 16, and the Buffaloes will play in Tempe next season.
"Renewing this series was a priority for us," ASU vice president of athletics Lisa Love said. "We traveled very well to Boulder, and our fans had a great time."
The series was made possible when Notre Dame asked ASU to adjust its previously scheduled home-and-home series. Originally slated to visit South Bend in 2013, the Sun Devils will instead play there in 2017. The 2014 game in Tempe was unchanged.
Cornerback/wide receiver Rudy Burgess did not dress on Tuesday and is doubtful for Saturday's game against Washington State due to his high ankle sprain. The injury kept him out of the Oregon State game.
"Rudy is moving very slowly right now," Koetter said. "He can do things in a straight line, but little else."
Running backs Ryan Torain and Keegan Herring were kept out of contact in order to preserve them for game day.
Washington State likely will be without its two top receivers when the Cougars travel to Tempe on Saturday, coach Bill Doba said Tuesday.
Speaking to reporters from Pullman on his weekly teleconference, Doba said both Jason Hill and Michael Bumpus suffered high ankle sprains last week in a 27-17 loss to Arizona and might not make the trip to Tempe.
But the Cougars have a lot of depth at receiver and tight end, so quarterback Alex Brink will still have a number of targets, Doba said.
''We'll miss them if they're not there because they're exceptional players,'' Doba said. ''But we're not going to throw in a whole new offense.''
Koetter said his wide receiving corps for Saturday's game figures to be Mike Jones and Brandon Smith at X and Kyle Williams and Chris McGaha at Z. . . .
ASU's players have voted on their captains for the 2006 season: Tight end Zach Miller and center Mike Pollak on offense and defensive tackle Jordan Hill and safety Josh Barrett on defense.

Jury awards $5.2M to Fla. boy who was bullied, sexually assaulted at charter school
Updated On: Apr 16 2014 03:32:31 PM EDT
A South Florida jury has awarded more than $5.2 million to a boy who sued a charter school claiming he was bullied and sexually assaulted by an older student.
The jury verdict on Tuesday came in a lawsuit the boy and his mother filed in 2012 claiming Downtown Miami Charter School was negligent in failing to stop the assaults.
The boy said the assaults started when he was seven, with one occurring on a school transport van and two others in a school restroom.
Attorney Jeff Herman called the verdict vindication for the boy and his mother.
The Miami Herald reported that school attorneys called the verdict disappointing and said they plan to challenge it.
Florida law limits liability in lawsuits against charter schools to $300,000.

Investors poured into SDIV during its opening days of trading, but in following months the fund's popularity waned. Since early August, it has failed to see its daily volume top 50,000.
We suspect the scant interest in SDIV is because of investor hesitance about the global marketplace. Turbulent action facing regions like the EU has weighed heavily on the fund's performance. During the past three months, shares of SDIV have dipped close to 20%.
In the cutthroat ETF universe, only the strongest funds survive. Although we have seen a taste of what can be expected from these two dividend newcomers, HDV and SDIV are still young. I would encourage investors to continue to keep a watch over them in the near future to find out whether they can cement their places in this industry.

So terrible. By the time that first responders arrived on the scene of Paul and Roger Rodas' horrific car crash on Nov. 30, they were immediately pronounced 'dead on arrival' on the 911 audio dispatch recording obtained by TMZ.
Paul Walker may have tried to escape the Porsche that he was trapped in after it crashed in Santa Clarita, Calif., but sadly, he died of traumatic and thermal injuries before firefighters arrived three minutes after a 911 call was made, TMZ reports. According to the recording, they reported that there were "two fatalities" at the crash site — Paul and the driver, Roger Rodas, 38, who died of "multiple traumatic injuries."
Paul Walker First Responders Audio Released: He's 'DOA'
One of the first things that firefighters on the scene told 911 dispatchers was that there were "two fatalities" at the scene that were both "dead on arrival." They arrived three minutes after a call to 911 was made, but security camera footage that captured the crash indicates that Paul may have been trapped in the car for up to one minute before it burst into flames.
The firefighter on the dispatch recording also says that the crash is a "Code N" incident, meaning that it's going to be newsworthy and should be handled carefully, according to TMZ.
Paul Walker's Funeral — Family Says It's 'Still A Work In Progress'
Paul, 40, touched so many lives before his untimely death, and his family wants all of the late actor's loved ones to unite and grieve his tragic loss together.
"They have not decided when the funeral will take place, it is still a work in progress," a friend of Paul and his family tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. "They want to make sure that everyone who wants to mourn will be together and all schedules match. They hopefully will have more of an idea next week."
Our hearts go out to everyone affected by Paul and Roger's deaths.
