Rex Seeking to Control of New York Jets For Good and All
Brian Bassett , TheJetsBlog.com
First things first, the Daily News report this morning had me spinning. You'll hear it on the podcast. Ye gods!
Spinning so much so that I actually took an hour this morning and talked with a friend and professional logician to try and come up with whether I should treat the report as credible or not. Boiling down this friend's point, it essentially was that a report like this has fingerprints from someone in Rex's camp. The reason being is that Rex's camp is making a play for more control, that wouldn't be the move by any opposing force. An opposing force would discredit or marginalize Rex at the sake of their own interests.
That the smoke behind the fire is that Rex needs to go "all in" to get what he needs. It's a common human response to go all or none for one's own sake.
So, just for fun … let's assume the report is true.
If so, then there's fault all around. BUT one point that you will get to hear later today is that Sparano has serious and tentacled ties to Parcells that I never appreciated. I honestly don't know how I missed it. Parcells is tied to Sparano, Parcells is tied to Tannenbaum. So the point to takeaway here is that Tannenbaum probably had a LOT more influence over the pick of Sparano as the new offensive coordinator than might be publicly appreciated, even by beat reporters.
That would stand to reason as to why Rex would seemingly "throw Sparano under the bus" with this report that's in the Daily News today … because he wasn't really a friend in the first place. Rex even said so this season. Rex said he "never liked" Sparano — but that he's now one of his guys.
(Rolling my eyes into the very back of my head)
In fact, the two were prickly about each other before working together this year is very telling. Sparano was probably pushed into interviews and while he might have won over Rex, their relationship isn't really that deep.
All that said, let's discuss poor Rex Ryan and the lack of influence he has over this organization offensively.
Rex Insisted on a Ground and Pound — Around the league, the Pistol offense is ripping defenses up, yet Rex Ryan still doggedly believes the 1985 Bears are the only way to win in the NFL 27 years later. Most players in the league weren't even alive then and yet this is THE formula. With a solid defense and a ball control offense, I'm not saying it's not a way to win games in the NFL … it is. But Rex Ryan seems to feel like he has a fever, and the only cure is MORE GROUND AND POUND. Rex must have his Ground and Pound and Schotty and Sparano haven't gotten it done. OK then … who will? When Schotty wasn't doing his bidding as much in 2011, Schotty was removed for another coach who would give him a Ground and Pound … and in 2012 it faltered badly. Rex might say that he needs more control over this offense and that's fine … but he's blind to other ways to run an offense that would take require less value invested and effort. From what I can tell, Rex won't be happy until he has five first rounders on the line and at a first round tailback. The Jets can't get there from here.
Mark Sanchez Was Rex's Guy — Remember when the Jets drafted Mark Sanchez and Rex was so proud of getting the guy? He told the world that the team wouldn't have traded up if he wasn't ready to play. Sanchez was named the starter after a (kangaroo court) competition with Kellen Clemens, and then was never disciplined for bad games beyond getting stoplight colors. Rex stood behind his quarterback the whole time and never showed any tough love on the gridiron to his QB to make him a better player. Sanchez was lauded — and rose high — for his confidence coming out of school, but maybe Rex mistook it and it was actually hubris.
Santonio Holmes Is In New York BECAUSE of Rex — Remember how Tone got traded to the Jets? Tannenbaum mentioned his availability dismissively to Ryan and Ryan ran into Tanny's office begging for him. Did Holmes help the team? Absolutely. Was Ryan's urging to bring him here and be a major part of the team a major factor in making it happen? Absolutely. Ryan urged the team to give him a fat contract and Ryan even made Tone (stupidly) a captain in 2011, and it only served to help pull this team apart and be a major part of the salary crater the team is now looking at.
John Conner Was Rex's Pick — Rex Ryan has bragged over and over and over and over and OVER about how John Conner was "his" pick. How'd that work out? Conner couldn't pick up the 2012 offense and was pushed off the roster for a bad player (Lex Hilliard) who at least understood the offense and could (badly) execute the offense. How's that pick looking now, Rex?
Rex Ryan Was The Getaway Man in the Tebow Trade — Rex Ryan was at the very least a co-conspirator and accomplice in the trade for Tim Tebow. If Ryan was so sure of Sanchez, was so sure of the offense he was setting up, why would he allow a headache like Tebow to come here? So that he could be a red herring for opposing defensive coordinators and never used? That's stupid. After just signing up Drew Stanton, Rex allowed his GM to trade for the NFL's version of Maximus … the one player that could fell any emporer. Ryan wanted him here, knew what he was but basically didn't evaluate how to use him properly and he was wasted on the roster all season long.
My point in all this? What has Rex really done that demands he get more control of the offense and the makeup of this team? It might have been "out of context," but Rex all but said he did not approve the Stephen Hill pick this year in the draft. Has Hill had a tough year? Yes every rookie receiver generally does. But look at Randall Cobb. Look at Demaryius Thomas. Players — most notably receivers — have massive jumps in production after their rookie year. Is Rex Ryan – the guy who has mishandled Mark Sanchez, the guy who picked John Conner, the guy who brought in Tone and worked to keep him here for good or ill, the right guy to gain more control? What are the decisions he's made so far that have been smashing successes? Using Kerley as a wildcat trigger man? Forcing Schotty to use the Wildcat last year against the Skins? Using color coded cards in Sanchez's rookie year? What has he really done to prove he deserves more control of the offense? What makes him the right guy to gain more say and control of the organization from a personnel standpoint?
Maybe he's been firewalled from controlling the offense up until now … maybe … but the gameday decisions are still his as he's so resoundingly proven in the last month with Tim Tebow. If he can't grasp whoever the OC is by the collar (whether they are a Tannenbaum mole or not inside his organization) and get the results he wants from them … then maybe his bid to go "all in" should have him out on the tiles too.

Sometimes seeing the wrong movie at too young an age can really stick with you. Say you saw Child's Play or Nightmare on Elm Street before age twelve. You might have had a hard time getting to sleep or looking at your stuffed animals in the same way after. But what about the movies you're supposed to see, the general interest flicks constantly rerunning on cable that Mom and Dad wouldn't bat at an eye at if they walked by and saw you watching? Often, it is only later that the truly disturbing stuff really shows its face. Sure, it's scary in Pee-Wee's Big Adventure when Large Marge's eyes jump out of their sockets, but what about the movies we saw as kids that are filled with the real? I'm talking about stuff like abortion, suicide, etc. – the kinds of things that can actually happen, things that are so serious they went over your head at the time. Or didn't.

Head over to The Playlist to read the track listing for Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds soundtrack. It's got more Morricone music than a Spaghetti Western marathon. BUT! None of the Oscar-winner's tracks were recorded for Basterds. Sounds like Quentin's pulling another Kill Bill with this record and finding places to fit classical Morricone cues into a brand new film. Worked well enough for me the last time around; I've still got the Kill Bill soundtracks in heavy rotation. Except for the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique Sound effects.

I loved Rian Johnson's first film, Brick* – the neo-hard boiled detective story set amongst high school social circles. It was the one with a bespectacled Joseph Gordon-Levitt, the anachronistic dialogue and the fantastic score by Johnson's brother. I saw it three times in the theaters. Even bought it on DVD. But as I sat down for my screening of Rian Johnson's followup, The Brothers Bloom, a wave of doubt washed over me. No way he can do it again, I thought. Besides, the trailers made it seem like a hodgepodge of styles culled from Johnson's contemporaries. It was Hudson Hawk through the off-kilter lens of Wes Anderson. Not necessarily a bad thing (I'm one of the few with fond memories of Hawk), but it wasn't promising to be a revelation like Brick…

The IESB has posted three behind-the-scenes clips from Disney-Pixar's Up. In total, it's 15 minutes of straight up, fly-on-the-wall making-of goodness, with none of the gloss one might expect from a Disney promo. Yeah that's right. It's 15-minutes of watching a dude sitting in front of a computer while it renders seven frames of the movie. There's also this part where Pete Docter orders a cheese sandwich from the cafeteria.I kid, I kid. It's pretty cool. Watch the other clips after the jump.
Re-cap:This episode begins in the same way that all Southland episodes to date have begun, which is to say that it begins in the middle of what's going on. Officer Sherman is lying in bed with his arm wrapped around a woman. Our narrator cuts in to inform us that it is a violation of policy for an officer to get involved with a victim. Sherman knows this, but does it anyway. We learn quickly how the girl ended up being a victim, and gradually how she ended up in Sherman's bed…
Renowned boner-causer Monica Bellucci has just joined the cast of Sorcerer's Apprentice. Variety reports that she will play the part of Nicolas Cage's long-lost love in the film.

The Road Trailer – Watch more Movie Trailers Check out this trailer for Dimension's post-apocalyptic roadtrip comedy, The Road, starring Viggo Mortensen and Charlize Theron. It's all about Viggo trying to win back the girl he mistakenly dumped after junior prom, and… awww heck. I just can't lie like that. It's an adaptation of The Road by Cormac "No Country For Old Men" McCarthy, who isn't exactly known for laughs. Check it out, and then post your comments after the jump, where you'll also find a good spoof of Cormac McCarthy starring actor Luiggi DeBiasse, whose Anton Chigurrh is pretty amazing.
In 1984, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird had a little idea for a comic book, pooled some money together to print a limited run, and inadvertently jump started a seismic shift in entertainment. I'm speaking, of course, about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who are set to once more take pop culture by storm in this, their 25th Anniversary year. We've gotten the announcement that a new live-action feature is in the works for a 2011 release. And just this week, Lionsgate released a brand new four-DVD collector's set of the original TMNT animated series' Season 7. (Each box comes with a cool miniature reproduction of an original Turtle action figure, too.)
/Film reports that despite the upcoming Jekyll film project starring Keanu Reeves, Bad Lieutenant director Abel Ferrara is moving forward with his own retelling of the classic tale. Jekyll and Hyde is set to star Forest Whitaker and 50 Cent as the cursed doctor in a contemporary retelling. Clearly they missed the boat on casting. 50 Cent as Mr. Hyde?

Sasha Grey is a renaissance woman. Not only does she pay the rent doing what most people do for fun (or babies), she also happens to be an intelligent and ambitious 21 year-old creative. And with her starring performance in Steven Soderbergh's newest film, The Girlfriend Experience, she's now officially under the mainstream microscope. Screen Junkies had the good fortune to be invited to the film's press junket, where Grey discussed such subjects as juggling porn and indie film, the odds of starring alongside teenybopper celebs, and her soon-to-be produced adult script, The F&%k Junkie. If we ever start a porn column on this site, we now have a name.

Hopefully the cover above has dissuaded you from thinking Universal was deigning to adapt the feel-good new age philosophy of the same name*. Nay, IESB.net reports that Universal Pictures has picked up the rights to Dark Horse Comics' The Secret under the exclusive three-year partnership the two companies entered into in early 2008. (They also partnered on the Hellboy franchise and Timecop.) The four-issue miniseries from 2007 was written by Dark Horse's Mike Richardson, and visualized by Jason Shawn Alexander, an award-winning artist who's worked on Abe Sapien, Queen & Country, and The Escapists. (His official website is pretty badass, and you can check it out here.)The Secret is a coming-of-age tale that focuses on Tommy, a high schooler who attends an exclusive party with the cool kids in order to get closer to his dream girl.

The '09 summer movies have already begun to arrive, but still to come are some of the biggest, baddest, FX-iest movies around. For robot fans, you can look no further than three of the biggest releases this summer: Terminator Salvation, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and (if it sticks to the cartoon's use of robot drones to satisfy the ratings board) G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra. [No, colons are not movie code for "Robot Plot."] Robots are on the A-List now, but they didn't always have it so good. Here are five cinematic robots that just didn't work (as they were intended): T-800 from Terminator Program: Kill Sarah Connor, period.
Just in from Movie Web, newcomer Evan Daughtery has been hired to pen the new He-Man film, Grayskull. I know that many of you may be worried but don't fret. He has found a way to take the already gay story of He-Man and make it infinitely gay. In the re-imagining "Adam is a soldier who sets off to find his destiny, happening upon the magical world of Eternia. There, Skeletor has raised a technological army and is bent on eradicating magic." So yeah. Take that magic.No star has been attached yet but I'm pulling for this guy.

Jean-Claude Van Damme and Vinnie Jones will team up in a film called Weapon, to be directed by Russell Mulcahy, the man responsible for Highlander and Resident Evil: Extinction. Weapon is the story of rival assassins, sharpshooter Jack Conway (Jones) and knife-wielding Derek Chase (Van Damme), who must blend their skills to foil the head of a drug cartel. A knife man and a gun guy can't get along? Where's the tension? They serve two different purposes, really. I would have much rather heard the following synopsis:
This morning, ComingSoon.net posted a mega gallery of images from the upcoming Disney-Pixar already-looks-like-an-Oscar-win-is-locked feature, Up, featuring the voices of veterans Ed Asner, Christopher Plummer and newcomer Joseph Nagai. We have a bunch of them here, so click, click, and away…
A new clip from Rian Johnson's The Brothers Bloom was released today. In our last installment, we got to see Rachel Weisz's card skills. In this one, we get to see Adrien Brody's lack of bicycling skills, as he flies down a steep decline and narrowly avoids missing Rachel and her Lamborghini. Granted, he meant to do it. It's all part of an elaborate scheme to grift Weisz's character. Watch the clip after the jump, and don't try this at home. Screenjunkies is seeing The Brothers Bloom tonight and will have a full report when we're allowed. The film officially opens May 29th.
Down below we have the trailer for Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus, the movie that dares ask 'What would happen if a giant octopus fought a mega shark?' The trailer features the colossal sea creatures attacking submarines, boats, oil rigs, jets, commercial flights, and San Francisco. And Earth's only hope is Lorenzo Lamas. *Sigh* Maybe it's not too late to strike some kind of deal with Giant Octopus. Here are your other morning headlines: Hulu too good to be true.

Not since the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' "Coming Out of Their Shells" Tour has Pizza Hut delivered such a powerhouse promotional tie in. Today, on the 'Hut's website, those bros at Warners posted a new 5-minute Terminator Salvation featurette that shows you the anatomy of a scene in which Kyle Reese (Anton Yelchin) and Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington) blow the ever loving crap out of a combo 7-Eleven/Gas Station (and probably all the Terminator Salvation promotional Slurpee crazy straws within it). The best part is the interview with Special Effects Supervisor Michael Meinardus, who's supporting himself on crutches. The dude looks like he injured himself jumping off his Harley to punch a T-800 in its exo-skull. Check out the insightful and ass-kicking sequence – brought to you by Pizza Hut – after the jump.

In an interview with MTV, Judd Apatow spills the beans that his upcoming film Funny People will include scenes and "marketing materials" for a bunch of fake movies in which Adam Sandler's character George Simmons stars. It's a conceit that worked really well in Tropic Thunder, with the inspired trailers for such high concept spoofs as Scorcher, The Fatties: Fart 2 and Satan's Alley (all three of which you can see after the jump, along with a short list of faux-films within the world of Funny People.

It's time to look at reorganizing the forums.
Back in April, Wrecan opened up a thread to kick around different organizational ideas. That thread generated a host of good ideas. We took those, melded them with our own, and churned out what you see below.
This is not a final outline—it's a starting point for you to offer more feedback. We want to combine and streamline wherever possible, with the aim of making it easier to find the type of conversation you want. With that as a guiding principle, we've pared down to this outline. I'd like to get it even smaller, but we don't want to be so vicious that no one recognizes the place.
A few explanatory notes and questions we'd really like feedback on:
What's a Player to Do? is a prime candidate for folding into 4E General Discussion. It's kept separate here because WaPtD is fairly busy, and we don't want to overload 4E General. That doesn't alter the fact that those two forums have a lot of overlap.
Astrid's Parlor is folded into 4E General. AP was strong for a while, but its traffic has fallen and we feel its audience would be best served by joining the main forum.
There was discussion of combining the D&D and M:tG off-topic areas into a single forum outside the brand categories; they're off-topic, after all. For now, though, we've kept the OTT as-is.
We considered combining all of the D&D Previous Editions forums into a single Vintage forum, since some of them don't get much use, but decided instead to separate by worlds.

Two Million Minutes is a 1 hour documentary that relates to the "flat earth" theory, that the global economy is flattening out and becoming a level playing field.
The focus of the movie is comparing high school education in America, China, and India. The film follows a boy and girl from each country. It also has several authorities in interviews for their opinions and information on subjects related to the film.
You get a really good glimpse at the difference between the cultures of America and the growing economic superpowers. I absolutely loved this documentary and my teacher is seeing if he can show it to his classes.

Charitable Donations Suffer During NHL Lockout
KSTP.com By: Jay Kolls- See the video here....
"When the Wild don't drop the puck, the trickle down affects hockey programs and charities across the state. One of the charities hit hardest is called "Defending the Blue Line."
It's a Hastings-based non-profit that raises money and helps military families keep their kids on the ice when dad, or mom, is serving overseas.
But, this year things could get a little tight if the NHL lockout is protracted.
Defending the Blue Line says it could lose $150,000 if the entire season is lost.
It depends on player and team financial donations and also the star power backing of auction items donated by the team.
All of that dries up during a lockout.
Right now, Defending the Blue Line helps about 3,000 hockey families across the state. It also has volunteers that help military families get kids to and from the rink when there is more than one hockey player in the family."

Packable Great - Heavy Duty Not
By Cool Traveler77
from Kentucky
Not a durable heavy duty walking stick to me. Great that it's packable which is why I bought one. However watch putting to much weight on it when needed. Could have sent it back put I have a collection of canes and sticks. Don't really like it other than it's very packable.

Wife Extremely Happy
By Russ
from Northern Virginia
Wife needs a walking stick for maintaining her balance. She is so heppy with it that she has retired her non-collapable stick and the new one travels with her everywheres. It would be helpful if the height was adjustable and it had a velcro strip to help keep it folded without using the tote bag. About the only concern we have is replacing the rubber tip when it wears out.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

An Excellent Product
By Sam
from Portland, OR
This is clearly a well manufactured collapsable walking stick and one that folds up conveniently to store in the the included carry bag. I don't need a cane on a continual basis at this point, but having one handy in case of weakness after a long day has definitely given me more of a feeling of security. Having it be able to double as a monopod was an added bonus. My sense is that the rubber covering on the tip will wear with usage, but I'm sure that I'll be able to find something to cover the point again for indoor use.
I'm very happy
By Senior Sara
from Denver, CO
I really like this walking stick. It is exactly what I wanted. Collapses to fit into a carry on bag, but sturdy for walking either in a city or hiking.
Perfect for travel
By J

I travel alot and this is perfect. Fits easily into carry-on and backback. Monopod feature for cameras is great to have. I am very pleased and have nothing but good things to say about it.
Ideal for local and travel walking
By Urban Walker
from Everett, WA
Too soon to tell how durable they will be, hence 4 stars, but they (I bought two) are super convenient for this urban walker. The storage bags will be useful in luggage. The 50" length is perfect for my height. The only negatives so far are that I had to come up with my own Velcro straps to keep them folded at my destination(s), and--the biggie-- that there is no info on ordering the inevitably necessary replacement rubber tips. The manufacturer did not respond to my inquiry. Thank goodness for HS's fabulous customer service.

The Sanpete Messenger won a unanimous victory recently in a Utah Records Committee appeal to discover the name of a juvenile struck by a car while walking down a highway near Fountain Green.
The Utah Highway Patrol withheld the name of the 16 year old who was critically injured in the June 5 accident, and who had most likely walked away from a group home in the Moroni area.
"I was gratified that the decision of the Records Committee in our favor was unanimous," Suzanne Dean, owner of the Messenger, said. "I understand unanimous decisions are pretty rare."
She added, "We were intimidated going up against an assistant attorney general, but quite honestly, our side swamped the state representatives. The journalists who testified were far more articulate, and knew and cited the law far more effectively than the Department of Public Safety representatives."
Christian Probasco, senior writer for the Messenger, who filed the initial Government Records Access Management Act (GRAMA) request for the boy's name, followed by appeals to the UHP and then the records committee, gave credit for the victory to other members of the media who testified during the case.
Joel Campbell, BYU associate professor of communications discussed the legal history of accident reports and argued that the UHP's actions were unprecedented ..
Linda Peterson, managing editor of the Valley Journals and President of the Utah Foundation for Open Government, focused on what she, and ultimately the committee, believed was an attempt by the UHP ..to interpret a new category of protected documents into existence.
"It is a very dangerous thing when law enforcers become interpreters of the law," Petersen said.
Sheryl Worsley, news director at KSL and president of the Utah Headliners Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, relayed some of the stories her organization had covered about minors killed in accidents.
"Our hands are being tied," she said. "Our ability to let the public know what's happening in the world around them is being hampered."
Her arguments were echoed by Dean, who read the first few paragraphs of an award winning story she had written on a fatal accident in 2003 in which 17-year-old Emily Bingham was killed.
Then she backtracked and read the story as it would have been written if she had been unable obtain Emily's name.
"Hours after a minor died,
people were talking about the fiery auto crash that killed him or her," Suzanne read. "But days afterward, people were talking about him or her."
She explained that the Messenger's reporting led the Utah Department of Transportation to investigate the section of road where the accident occurred. Since the accident, the road has been widened to include a turn lane at the point where the death occurred.
Probasco said he couldn't guarantee a specific "public good" from the investigation of the June 5 accident or any news story. He argued, however, that the true public good, outweighing an invasion of privacy in accident cases, was that they could be investigated by journalists who do not have to answer to any government agency. Newspapers, he testified, have to answer to their readers.
Probasco emphasized that he was not pointing the finger at UHP troopers. "They have a difficult job," he said. "I don't know how you can deal with an accident scene, for example, where a minor died. I couldn't do it."
Assistant Attorney General Kevin Bolander argued that the law on the issue of privacy vs. public access to information was murky, that the name of the boy was not newsworthy, that minors had special privacy rights and that if DPS released the name, the action would represent a "clearly unwarranted invasion of privacy."
Committee members ap-peared skeptical from the onset about those arguments. They grilled Bolander and Dwayne Baird, public information officer for the Department of Public Safety, and appeared to conclude that in fact, Utah law clearly requires the release of victims' names, ages, city of residence and other information in initial reports, that there was never an exception for minors, and that there was no precedent or justification for UHP's actions in the Sanpete County case.
"I am not following your argument," member Holly Richardson told Bolander. "It just does not make sense to me.
Lex Hemphill, the committee's media representative, said the state hadn't met the standard set in the 2008 Utah Supreme Court case Deseret News vs. Salt Lake County, which involved Deseret News reporting about a county employee accused of sexual harassment.
The court held that records "could not be withheld merely because (their) contents invade personal privacy." The decision said personal privacy had to be weighed against "constitutional and public policy interests."
Probasco said he was happy with the victory but warned that the committee had ruled narrowly on the case. There is nothing to prevent UHP from trying to withhold a name in the next case.
"Accident reports are usually where we start our investigations," Probasco said. "If we have to fight the UHP for information on every case, or even a large percentage of cases, we'll be shut down. We need the cooperation of the UHP and other police agencies to get the story."
This case, Dean said, provided proof of the damage that can be done when information is withheld. In his initial brief issued about a week before the hearing, Kevin Bolander, the assistant attorney general, wrote that the minor who had been hit "was seriously injured and subsequently died as a result of his injuries."
"We assumed the assistant attorney general knew what he was talking about, so we report-
ed that the kid was dead," Dean said. "A few days later, the Attorney General's Office issued a supplemental brief stating that the youth did not die. Then at the hearing the state attorney who made the mistake turned toward the press table and accused us of inaccurate reporting. My jaw kind of dropped at that point."
Probasco said that if the UHP had released the name of the boy and the city he came form at the time of the accident, the newspaper would have followed up and run a story reporting on the youth's release from the hospital. Under that scenario, the error wouldn't have happened.

I'm new to this community as well, but have some experience with the home networking topic. I have an old computer that I use to serve web pages and can ssh into. It has only one network interface. I'll try to explain how I set this up.
1) You need to find a way to locate your network from the outside world. At first I had a dynamic IP from my internet provider, but my Belkin router has a feature that links a domain name to the dynamically assigned IP via dyndns.com. You just create a domain name (i.e. something.dyndns.com) and the router will push updates to dyndns.com, telling it what your dynamic IP is at that moment. You should look in your router's configuration and see if that's possible. If not, call your cable provider and purchase a static IP address. I use comcast and they just made me switch to a "business" plan and charged me $5/mo more.
2) Forward tcp requests on port 80 and 22 to your server's internal IP address. Your router likely gives each computer in your network a dynamic IP. While you can assign static IP addresses within your network, it will be easier at first to just use ifconfig to see what the server's IP address is. So go into your router's config page and forward those ports to the server's IP. (FYI it's not very secure to use default ports for outward facing servers ... eventually you'll want to configure your server to use some higher ports). Hopefully if your router can do this, you shouldn't have to mess with iptables at all!!
3) Now that packets are getting to the right destination (your server), you need server software. Install apache (or glassfish) for the web server, and install openssh-server. Your apache works if the web browser shows "IT WORKS!". After that you can put your html in /var/www/.
These steps assume you have a fairly recent router, and that you don't want your server to act as a firewall/router. If you want your server to act as a router, you'll need two network interfaces (I'm trying to do this now, with not much success!).
Those steps are pretty vague and have no actual commands because I don't know what distribution you plan to use. If there are problems please follow up.

Contractor on ill-fated Hwy 20 project agrees to $735K penalty
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The contractor on an ill-fated project to straighten a hazardous section of U.S. 20 has agreed to pay a $735,000 federal penalty to resolve allegations that it allowed muddy water from the work to flow into Coast Range streams.
The Oregonian reported Monday the agreement is between Granite Construction of Watsonville, Calif., and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. It has been filed in federal court in Portland.
The state has taken over the troubled project, and state officials are to decide later this month how to proceed.
The estimated cost has increased from about $150 million to nearly $400 million.
Landslides that have plagued the project continue to be a problem.

Submission Google To Pitch Android To Businesses->
jfruh writes: "There are really two separate cell phone markets: the consumer market, where everyone competes against everyone else, and where Android and the iPhone dominate; and the market for large-scale phone purhcases by big businesses and other large organizations, a market where RIM and Microsoft still rule the roost. While Apple seems content to let consumer demand for its phones force businesses to offer support for them, hints are emerging that Google is going to start pitching businesses on big Android deployments — with a little help from tech acquired with Motorola."

Rated 5 out of 5Â by EMR Love it This is the same robe that I purchased from another company years ago only a different color. Finding it at VCS was like finding an old friend. February 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by stickers Warm and cozy This robe is very warm and cozy but beware! Mine bled in the washer. I know this as I had thrown in a few stray dishtowels! And that was with cold water. February 25, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5Â by FLflowers Too bulky and heavy to suit me I bought this robe to replace an old chenille robe that was getting a bit worn, but I'm not happy with it. It's so bulky and heavy that I don't find it comfortable. Although it fits fine through the shoulders and upper body, the skirt isn't full enough and gaps open as I walk or sit. The fabric quality does seem good even though it sheds quite a bit. But this robe will be going to the thrift store and I'll keep wearing my old robe until I can find a better replacement.

No shrinking, no fading and minimal lint in dryer vent, I love the waistline and sew in belt and it is very warm and comfortable. One of my favorite gifts to myself this Christmas. December 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Troll Chenille robe Bought this for my wife to replace another robe. Warning - put in the washer by itself and the the dryer by itself. Do not have ayone touch it or fibers will go everywhere and on everything. After its washed once and dried in the dryer it is fine. My wife loves it, warm and cozy. A hit. December 21, 2014
