Default Any tips for removing a stubborn front brake rotor

I'm replacing my front hub but the front brake rotor does not want to come off. I've soaked it in WD-40 and been pounding on it with a rubber mallet, but I'm getting no where with this. Frustration is making me want to go pound the s##t out of it with a hammer, but I know better.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick

Thanks, other option is to put everything back together and go trade the Blazer in for an Xterra Off Road.
