The first place Detroit Tigers continue their weekend series against the Chicago White Sox on Saturday when the American League Central rivals meet at Comerica Park. FOX will air the game with the first pitch expected at 4:10 p.m. (ET).
Detroit held a 5.5-game lead over the White Sox and Cleveland Indians entering the series opener on Friday. The Tigers were laying -210 and up in the matchup that saw their ace Justin Verlander (20-5, 2.38) take on Chicago lefty John Danks (6-9, 3.63).
Saturday finds the Tigers sending out right-handed starter Brad Penny (9-10, 5.07), who is allowing over four earned runs per start in his last nine games. Starting for Chicago will be right-hander Gavin Floyd (12-10, 4.36), who has picked up a victory in six of his last eight starts.
The Tigers have held the division lead since July 21. The White Sox and Tigers have already met 12 times this season with Detroit leading the season series 7-5 and with six games remaining on the schedule between these teams, including this weekend set.
Detroit has accumulated a reputable home record this season of 39-29 and has been profitable betting option there this season at +5.87 units. But the Tigers have failed to put up that type of performance lately at Comerica Park, going just 13-14 at home in their last 27.
The distinct advantage Floyd seems to have over Penny in this matchup comes down to two simple pitching statistics that show consistency and effectiveness: WHIP and ERA. Floyd's WHIP is over 0.3 points lower than Penny's this season and his ERA is over nearly three-quarters of a run below Penny's mark of 5.07.
These two statistics prove exactly why some trends matter more than others when it comes to picking divisional baseball games.
The White Sox seem to demonstrate exactly how much they continue to struggle on the road against the Tigers with a 2-7 mark in their last nine meetings in Detroit. But Floyd has had success pitching versus the Tigers during his career with the White Sox winning 10 of his 14 starts versus Detroit since he joined the Chicago rotation in 2007.
Detroit has been listed a favorite in their last 10 home games with the odds ranging from -110 to -270. With nearly a 6-game lead in the division over Chicago, expect that streak to continue in this three-game series against the White Sox.
The weather forecast shows a 40 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms in the Motown area for Saturday. The afternoon high is going to approach 90 with southwest winds in the 5-10 mph range.

The unmistakable bark of a whooping cough in a child is heartbreaking, but more cases of adults are being reported, according the Centers for Disease Control.
Outbreaks in 18 states, including Texas, as well as an epidemic in Washington state, is enough for the Texas MedClinic chain to begin a campaign to encourage adults to seek the vaccine.
The pertussis vaccine was not available for adults until about eight years ago.
Now that it is on the market, Medicare will cover the cost for even those 64 years or older, provided the shot is given in the course of other medical treatment such as wound treatment.
Dr. David Gude says it is not covered as a preventative vaccine, but remains well worth the price.
"The issue is really with young children. If they get sick, it could be deadly for a child and often adults harbor the bacteria and are the exposure source for a young child," Gude explained.

Your Questions, Our Answers
Opinions on a Jeep Fighter
Q It is no secret that Chevy powerplants are the most swapped in motors across the board in automobile projects. That said, why doesn't the General build a 4x4 that is a direct competitor for a Jeep? A small solid-axle selectable transfer case vehicle from GM would be great, in my opinion. Do you think there is any chance in persuading them to get started on such a thing?
Gary D.
Via email@example.com
A Wow, great question! General Motors almost had an awesome competitor with the Hummer HX concept vehicle revealed back in 2008 that was pointing toward a cool open-topped 4x4. However, with the economic slump the Hummer brand died and with it the last GM 4x4 dedicated to off-roading. With the booming success of the Jeep Wrangler you would think GM would delve into that arena, but I don't think you'll see anything soon—especially since GM doesn't have a solid front axle in any of its 4x4s. I do think the new Colorado (or whatever is slated to replace the Colorado) could be a great little 4x4. The rumor mill says small diesel engine options. But again, I doubt you'll see a solid-front-axle competitor from GM.
So if not GM, why has no one else shown up to compete with the Jeep Wrangler? Ford opted to build a go-fast truck instead, and that is admirable, though I still wonder if we could ever see a new Bronco. Imagine one with an EcoBoost V-6 and solid axles. Toyota built the very capable FJ Cruiser, but it could have used a better body design for visibility, plus I agree a solid front axle would have been great for rockcrawling. Nissan's Xterra is no slouch off-road, and yet it also is missing the solid front axle that so many off-roaders covet. Land Rover is still spinning around a new Defender concept, but its vehicles are usually priced outside the Wrangler market. The same with Mercedes and its übercool solid-axle G-Wagon, which cost more than two new Wranglers.
The body-on-frame, solid-front-axle recipe seems to be a hang up for many OEMs, especially now that fuel economy is so important to our government, and thus regulated to the automakers. In fact, Jeep is probably working double time to both fulfill all the Wrangler orders and figure out how to make it more fuel efficient, or offset these sales with other more fuel-efficient vehicles in the Jeep lineup.
Finally, this brings up one big question. If a Jeep was built by any other company and it wasn't called a Jeep, would it sell as well? I'm sure GM and Ford guys would buy a new Blazer or Bronco, but would they buy a solid-axle, body-on-frame 4x4 made by someone else, like Hyundai? Kia? Or …?
Q I am looking for some insight on an SAS (solid axle swap) on my '84 S-10 Blazer. I have had this truck since I was 16 and can't give up on her. I have always wanted to do a SAS on it. The IFS stinks—no flex—and has bound me up before. I am interested in the Offroad Design kit, which suggests a few axles that will work with the kit. I have recently run across a '79 F-250 D44 front with 4.10s. The spring perches are the correct width, but I am unsure about the pros and cons of a full-width axle under a midsize truck. The axle measures roughly 68 inches wide and with rims will increase my track width by 8 inches on each side if I get 5-inch backspacing on a 10-inch wide wheel. I am hoping to run 33-12.50 or maybe 35s if I can fit them. I also found an '02 Sterling rear axle from a Ford that I could swap for the rear; this would also increase the width by 8 inches. I figured I would contact the pros. Thanks for the Info.
Eric L. Via email@example.com
A You have a great little truck with your S10. However, I assume you don't have the more powerful 4.3L V-6. I understand your desire to build the truck, as it holds some emotional attachment for you, but I will warn you that you may want to upgrade to a more powerful engine down the road.
The solid-axle swap kit offered by Offroad Design, aka ORD (www.offroaddesign.com), is for a fullsize truck, not your S10. However, the ORD you're talking about may be Off-Road Direct (www.offroaddirect.com), which does list a SAS kit for your truck.
I think it would suit you best to find a set of axles from the same truck if you are on a budget. Getting a matching set of, say, a Ford 44 and 9-inch (F-150), or Ford 44 and 60 (F-250), should ensure that you have matching gear ratios, bolt patterns, and similar overall widths. Ford was pretty good about running matching front and rear track widths.
I do not see a major problem with going with a full-width axle under your midsize (small) truck. Off-road you'll have the benefit of stability and tires that can hold the body away from rocks, trees, and other obstacles. On-road you will likely need to run mud flaps or some sort of removable flares. If you go with an eight-lug axle, note that most factory late-model eight-lug truck wheels have a lot of backspacing, good for helping pull the tires back in near the body. One I'd suggest is a set of late-model Dodge Power Wagon wheels. They have a lot of backspacing and are a lightweight forged 17-inch aluminum wheel with an 8-on-61⁄2 bolt pattern. Finding a 5-on-51⁄2 bolt pattern wheel with a lot of backspacing and a center hole to clear a front Dana 44 hub will be more difficult, especially if you are looking at a 17-inch rim.
Q Prior to Chrysler's bankruptcy, I understood they were developing a bolt-in kit to fit the VM 2.8L diesel into the TJ and possibly the YJ. Is the new Chrysler/Fiat going to still offer that kit through, perhaps, the Mopar division, or is it a scrapped project? It would be too bad if they shelved that project since not only were the torque numbers at low rpm a little more than the gas sixes, but the mileage should have been in the 20-plus range both in city and on the highway.

A We actually reported on this engine swap back in 2008 and since then have heard that it is not going to happen. You can stop holding your breath. Sorry. If your heart's set on a diesel swap, Burnsville Off Road (www.burnsvilleoff road.com) offers 2.8L conversions. Another option is a Volkswagen TDI conversion from Coty Built (www.cotybuilt.com), as shown in New Products this month.
Tire Store or Store Tire
Q Is there any way to beat dry rot if you have to park or store a vehicle for long periods of time? Due to moving eight hours away and living in an apartment in a bad neighborhood, I had to park my Jeep at my parents' house for about four years. After finally securing a nice duplex in a safer town, I towed my '81 CJ-5 up here. I had some decently new (plenty of tread) 35X12.50 Kumho M/T Road Ventures mounted prior to parking. After about two weeks of driving I noticed tiny cracks in the sidewalls. Shortly after that my tires would no longer hold air, and I ended up having to replace my 35s with some $100 32X10.50 A/T tires. I am planning to put some work into my Jeep, and it might have to sit while I'm doing so. Any tips to avoid this problem again?
Bobby P.
Via firstname.lastname@example.com
A The best way to store tires is put each tire in a bag (say, a large garbage bag) so they are airtight to reduce oil evaporation, then stack them in a cool dry place. This means putting your Jeep up on jackstands or other roller tires you're not concerned with if possible. Sunlight can really affect tires, so storing them like this in a basement is a better option. Tires do have build dates on them and will not last forever, but care can be taken to make them last a while. If you can't store them like this it would be better to sell them or have someone drive the Jeep periodically to keep them flexible.
Of course, tires are only one concern for a vehicle that is stored for a long time. If you have to store your vehicle again, we recommend you fill the gas tank and add some Stabl to keep it from gumming up. Stuff a rag or some steel wool in the tailpipe to keep any critters from making a home in there, and don't set the parking brake because the shoes can stick to the drums. Disconnect the battery and plan to charge it prior to driving the vehicle. I'd also recommend changing all of the fluids (oil, coolant, brake fluid) when you start driving it again, as they can absorb water over time.

Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the natural gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Spencer was 7th in all of NFL in pass rush productivity for edge rushers. Not just 3-4 OLBs, including 4-3 DEs. He led all of them in Stop %, better known as putting the opposition in 2nd and long, 3rd and long, punt situations. 1st overall. He had crucial sacks in game-deciding, defensive-stand situations vs Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and Washington (albeit they lost on the last Romo pick). Nothing about his performance could be construed as a disappointment. The real disappointment is know whomever wrote this anonymous article probably did very little research but is paid by a reputable entity such as SI. I wonder how "off" the rest of the teams I don't know a lot about are.
Franchise tag breakdown by team
The NFL's two-week franchise tag window opened on Monday and will run through March 4. Because the 2013 salary cap has not been set officially yet, the final numbers on franchise (and transition) tags are still a bit up in the air.
However, with the cap projected to settle at $121 million, franchise tags would run from close to $15 million for quarterbacks down to just shy of $3 million for punters/kickers.
Which players could wind up playing the 2013 season under a franchise tag designation? We take a team-by-team look at the possibilities:
Arizona Cardinals: Is LB Paris Lenon worth an estimated $9.5 million? How about $10.7 million for CB Greg Toler? It's a resounding no in both cases, so the Cardinals likely will sit on the franchise tag this season.
Atlanta Falcons: CB Brent Grimes could draw a second straight tag, though the cost would be astronomical for a guy who played one game in 2012 (Achilles). The better bets are either LT Sam Baker or S William Moore.
Baltimore Ravens: Baltimore will keep the franchise tag in its back pocket, in case it needs it for Joe Flacco.
Buffalo Bills: The decision will come down to FS Jairus Byrd or G Andy Levitre. Consider Byrd the obvious front-runner to get the tag, with Levitre a fallback option.
Carolina Panthers: Of Carolina's season-ending depth chart, only DT Dwan Edwards could be an unrestricted free agent amongst the starters. He's not worth an $8 million-plus tag.
Chicago Bears: The Bears really have to keep Pro Bowl DT Henry Melton around, even at the expense of LB Brian Urlacher.
Cincinnati Bengals: There are multiple possibilities here, led by DE Michael Johnson and OT Andre Smith. The darkhorse is Mike Nugent, who drew the franchise tag in 2012.
Cleveland Browns: K Phil Dawson grabbing the tag for a third straight year would cost Cleveland $5.5 million. Forget that. Punter Reggie Hodges, another candidate, finished 31st in yards per punt.
Dallas Cowboys: LB Anthony Spencer was a letdown under the tag in 2012, and RB Felix Jones has done nothing to justify $8.1 million for 2013. There doesn't appear to be a real franchise tag possibility here.
Denver Broncos: The Broncos will use the tag on LT Ryan Clady.
Detroit Lions: General manager Martin Mayhew said the Lions won't use the tag this season. That decision puts them at risk of losing DE Cliff Avril, S Louis Delmas, RT Gosder Cherilus, CB Chris Houston and LBs Justin Durant and DeAndre Levy.
Green Bay Packers: Greg Jennings is the only realistic candidate here. Don't count on it — Green Bay has enough depth at WR to avoid paying more than $10 million for Jennings.
Houston Texans: The price for safeties under the franchise tag is the third cheapest, behind only kickers/punters and tight ends. Thus, Glover Quin could earn that designation.
Indianapolis Colts: Two possibilities are off the board after the Colts told WR Austin Collie and DE Dwight Freeney they would not be re-signed. Punter Pat McAfee makes sense at less than $3 million.
Jacksonville Jaguars: A report out of Jacksonville Monday stated that the team is "unlikely" to hand out the franchise tag. Looking at the Jaguars' roster, that choice appears to be a smart one.
Kansas City Chiefs: The Chiefs may wind up having to decide whether to tag WR Dwayne Bowe or LT Branden Albert. Their goal is to re-sign one so they can tag the other.
Miami Dolphins: Is LT Jake Long still worth $10 million? If the Dolphins decide he's not, RB Reggie Bush and DT Randy Starks also could be options — the Dolphins used the tag in 2011 on DT Paul Soliai, then re-signed him prior to '12. According to reports, the team won't franchise CB Sean Smith.
Minnesota Vikings: The Vikings need to keep RT Phil Loadholt, after he and Matt Kalil combined to bookend a very good Minnesota line. Tagging Loadholt would put the Vikings in deep financially at their tackle spots.
New England Patriots: WR Wes Welker? That's apparently a negative. So, New England can choose between RT Sebastian Vollmer or CB Aqib Talib. The latter would be a gamble, especially at more than $10 million, but he was an impact player for the Patriots.
New Orleans Saints: From a salary cap standpoint, the Saints don't have the necessary money to tag anyone. Otherwise, LT Jermon Bushrod would be the obvious pick.
New York Giants: LT Will Beatty leads the way, though S Kenny Phillips would be cheaper. So too would TE Martellus Bennett.
New York Jets: The Jets are not allowed to tag S LaRon Landry, per a clause in his 2012 contract, and RB Shonn Greene does not deserve $8 million. TE Dustin Keller could be in play at around $6 million, though he was hurt for most of last season.
Oakland Raiders: This is a cap-strapped spot, too, so Oakland may not go the franchise tag route. If it does, TE Brandon Myers might make the most sense, both from a personnel and financial standpoint.
Philadelphia Eagles: The Eagles reportedly will not use their tag. They have no candidates beside CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie anyway, and he has not shown any reason lately that he should receive upwards of $10 million.
Pittsburgh Steelers: Another team with salary cap problems. WR Mike Wallace and CB Keenan Lewis would be atop the tag list, if the Steelers go down that road. But don't count on it.
San Diego Chargers: The Chargers have a bunch of pending free agents that don't really fit the franchise tag qualifications — CBs Quentin Jammer and Antoine Cason, LB Shaun Phillips and NT Aubrayo Franklin, for starters.
San Francisco 49ers: The relatively low price at safety could lead to Dashon Goldson being hit with a tag. Could TE Delanie Walker, a key part of the 49ers' Colin Kaepernick-led offense, be Plan B?
Seattle Seahawks: Seattle will return most of its starting lineup next season. K Steven Hauschka is a tag possibility, given the manageable price at that position.
St. Louis Rams: Can St. Louis justify nearly $11 million for oft-injured WR Danny Amendola? RB Steven Jackson normally would be a possibility, if his departure was not so clearly set in stone.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: The Bucs currently have about $30 million to spend under the cap, so the tag is in play. DE Michael Bennett should be the guy, if Tampa Bay opts to use it.
Tennessee Titans: Per a report last week, the Titans will tag TE Jared Cook. Doing so may push K Rob Bironas to free agency.
Washington Redskins: Washington is down $18 million in cap space due to NFL-mandated penalties, so a franchise tag would not be the best use of cash. Luckily for the Redskins, they don't have a lot of must-keep pending free agents — tagging Fred Davis for a second straight year, off a season-ending injury, would be nonsensical.
Urlacher is over the hill. Just an average player in his latter years.
"Seattle Seahawks: Seattle will return most of its starting lineup next season. K Steven Hauschka is a tag possibility, given the manageable price at that position."
Agreed, HAwks probably wont tag anyone.
"LB Anthony Spencer was a letdown under the tag in 2012"? What? Spencer led the team in sacks. Had his best season every. What games were you watching?
You could have said that he was a disappointment from 2007-2011 and only played well in his "contract" year.
BTW, I am not sure if he is worth another franchise tag. But to say he was disappointing is absolutely ludicrous.
No he didn't, that was Demarcus Ware. What Season were you watching?
@rcowen1961 You are absolutely right. Spencer had a great season. He was their defensive mvp by seasons end. I fully expect them to franchise him. Who writes this crap?
@LeeHarvey There was not a great season by anyone on that mediocre defense.

That's the headline, but there's nothing in the article on Green Paper for Vulnerable Children seminar that expands on the statement. The seminar was at the Hutton Theatre yesterday, sponsored by Dunedin Mayor Dave Cull.
Opening the seminar, Mr Cull said New Zealand's child abuse rates suggested children were not highly valued.
The green paper contained good suggestions of how to protect children, but the issue was a very broad one, he said.
It was crucial to New Zealand's future that more was done to protect children, he said.
There is an entrenched culture of violence throughout our society. Changing it is a big challenge, as illustrated by an extended blog discussion yesterday:
"It's common knowledge that male bonding with children begins and ends with sporting events."
Wrong, it begins with a sound thrashing and ends with a clip around the ear.
Dim-Post is more of an academic/intellectual blog where violence would seem to be out of place but there was strong defence of joking about violence against children.
It's very difficult changing a culture like that. There were only a few people supporting child violence jokes as acceptable, but notable was the lack of criticism (apart from me).
Joking about violence, and not challenging it, contributes to the culture of violence we have in our society. It's not just violent people to blame for violence, non-violent people need to speak out against. Remaining passive is a part of the problem.
There are a lot of people prepared to stand up and speak out against violence and other problems facing Kiwi kids. More required.
Hutton Theatre the venue for a discussion on children's issues
(Channel 9) The Government has been circulating a 'green paper' discussion document on children's issues, with a host of speakers travelling the country.
Dunedin's Hutton Theatre was the venue for the Dunedin and Invercargill talks, which were described as 'robust', by one of the speakers.

8 Responses to "As Billy Meier Predicted – in 1987 – and Happening before Our very Eyes"
Hey all,
Does Billy tell if there's any chance for a good future for earth and mankind after the ww3, which most likely is inevitable now… Or is it at the same the end of the world?
No one really knows what a human being can do with the powers of thoughts and feelings that can cause an effect. Everybody has a spiritform and a conciousness awareness that are the building blocks or foundation stones or moleclues to change things to the good.
Someone with a true understanding of the laws and commandments whelds the might of nature it's self… Each and every event in life gives an opportunity to honor creation… Everything in life is a polarity so beautiful things can occur even with a negative event once resolution has been strived for and resolved… Irregardless of future events I am optimistic… Degenerate thinking does not allow us to deal with reality.. The reality is that humanity has been living in untruth for far too long and will have to deal with reality… Like a frog on a stove.. By the time the frog realizes the situation it is in it is too late… The reality is that this world is beautiful we only need to make the proper determinations to preserve and keep it this way… You may find my assertion odd but in truth I do not put my faith on the perishable I put my faith on the timeless.. And the truth and reality it brings. Thank you Michael… For all you do friend
At least the prophesies don't have to end up being a prediction. Unfortunately as with the comet, often times scientist will ignore the warning.
With this said, I'm actually watching a video Michael, about Nasa talking about a Meteor coming for Earth within 30 years. Problem is, depending on when the film was made, that could be 27 years now. Does Billy know which comet they are talking about?
I'll download and watch the movie as soon as I can get a card again.^_- I found the 2006 dvd very informative.
Sarah,perhaps you are referring to the Apophis asteroid , which after passing by in 2029 will hit us in 2036. In the contact notes it was referred to at first as "Red Meteor". The Plejaren are sure it will strike earth if left to it's current course.
dear Michael ,It has been my past present and future intention to be an advocate for the spiritual teachings here in Australia . Before , it was without the knowledge of Figu (meaning "i had no knowledge of Figu or Billy at the time") I was visited many years ago before the computer age .
An invitation to the spiritual teachings and to find my way to Figu and Billy Meier. Trust me , this was in NO way a Beamship from our terrestial planet !!!!!(1 witness testimonial ,alongside with over 100 clear photographic evidences from a different source(head of a baeuro of meteorology division that told me "not to go public for threat of incarceration from government control and ridicule) Not from this world i assure you !.Anyhow , I would like to visit the SSSC some day , just to visit and share / talk about the teachings . I have been advising people over the past 30 years on the overpopulation crisis , World Political proffiteering and greed etc etc etc . I have been laughed at upon trying to enlighten those that seemed interested at first .Sorry for not structuring all this here well……… i just have accomplished so much , and have had so many numerous experiences with the teachings i dont know what to say first . I could write a thousand pages here. I am unsure of weather or not i am maybe one of the persons here on earth to help humanity wake up . I'm sure if i meet with FIGU one day i will be recieved or expected to show up. I have the ability to predict certain events (but only negative) Plane crashes , Individuals injuries , Car fatalities , Etc etc etc but not at will . Just comes to me . Sometimes i feel ill before the event. I get a vision / symbolic images that i know will transpire with 100 percent accuracy.From in 10 mins time to 2 or 3 weeks. even though i may be a drop in the ocean , the ripple i make will spread to the shores.
Anyhow .i can talk better than what i can type here . Michael , i would like to get together with you soon one day when i am able to . Im trying to juggle work and finances at the moment though , And my life has been a strain and arduous as has always been the case unfortunately. Salome Wayno Australia
The unimaginable knowledge given to only those who dare to think/ use reason…… such a delicate dance for the billions in jeopardy. Truly a world in utter chaos!
Yet, within this truth of our illogical spiritual being, lies the fruit of utter universal love and reason…. the time is now…. the time is fulfilling itself before our very eyes… I hope everyone is ready!

Patrick Reed sits down with the new women's volleyball coach.
A little behind on the news around these parts, but we already miss Coach Shymansky, and thank him for everything he's done for the Marquette volleyball program.
It wasn't the result anyone in blue and gold wanted, and after the first set, it wasn't the final score anyone expected. But Marquette's NCAA tournament run ended on Saturday at the hands of the nationally seeded Illini.
It's time for a preview of this evening's NCAA opening round match between the Golden Eagles and the Cardinals!
The Big East's regular season and tournament champion will start their 2013 NCAA tournament appearance when they head to Champaign, IL, on Friday to play the AAC regular season champion.
The University claims its third Big East Championship of the fall as Marquette volleyball tops Creighton 3-1.
It's not terribly surprising to see the top two seeds advance to the Big East championship game tomorrow, especially when it's the only two teams in the league to earn a top 25 ranking this season.
#1 seed Marquette heads to Omaha to meet up with the three newcomers to the Big East to decide who gets the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.
Let's all pretend this was published an hour earlier, hmm?

Swoobat is a mediocre Pokemon, but has one decent niche. The combination of Simple and Calm Mind grants Swoobat a +2 boost in both Special Attack and Special Defense after only one turn of setup. In addition to this, it also gets access to Stored Power, a 100 Base Power STAB attack after only one Calm Mind. While this might make Swoobat seem like a top-tier threat, it has quite a few flaws holding it back. Aside from its great Speed stat, all its other stats are terrible. A mediocre base 77 Special Attack means it needs at least one boost to do any sort of significant damage. Its 67 / 55 / 55 bulk doesn't do it any favors, and it is weak to Sucker Punch, the most common form of priority in NU.
This is Swoobat's only set, but it performs it well due to a great base Speed that lets it outspeed most of the tier and access to Calm Mind along with the Simple ability. After a single boost, Stored Power reaches 100 Base Power, which is devastating combined with Swoobat's increased Special Attack and STAB. Due to its high Speed, the only things Swoobat fears being revenge killed by are Choice Scarf Pokemon and priority users. Substitute is a great move that remedies this by preventing Swoobat from being revenge killed by the likes of Skuntank. Stored Power takes advantage of Calm Mind to the fullest with its high Base Power after a Calm Mind or two, and Heat Wave provides excellent coverage with Stored Power, hitting the Dark-, Psychic-, and Steel-types in the tier, such as Jynx, Metang, and Probopass. Salac Berry is the item of choice here, as the +2 Speed boost it gives Swoobat upon falling into the last 25% of its HP both allows it to outspeed the entire tier and further boosts the power of Stored Power.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Swoobat has an excellent support movepool, such as Toxic, Tailwind, Taunt, Trick, dual screens, Knock Off, Magic Coat, and U-turn, but it has nowhere near the bulk required to effectively use it. Roost is a reliable recovery move, but Swoobat will never find the time to use it; using Roost will also take away a precious moveslot that could be used for a coverage move. Charge Beam can be used to do a little bit of Electric-type damage while also having a good chance to boost Swoobat's Special Attack, but Calm Mind is much better as it provides a guaranteed boost, and boosts Special Defense as well. Klutz in conjunction with Trick is a usable gimmick, but it is hard to pull off because of Swoobat's frailty, so Swoobat is better off as a Simple Calm Mind sweeper. Choice items are out of the question because of Swoobat's disappointing offensive stats; in addition, Jynx and Gardevoir severely outclass it.
Checks and Counters
The best way to counter Swoobat is to prevent it from setting up or Encoring it into Calm Mind. Liepard gets a notable mention for being able to switch into a predicted Stored Power, Encore Swoobat, and KO it with STAB Pursuit. Skuntank is immune to Stored Power, can take a +2 Heat Wave, and can defeat Swoobat with the combination of Pursuit and Sucker Punch. Regice can take any move Swoobat throws at it with ease and OHKO with Ice Beam after Stealth Rock, even if Swoobat has a Calm Mind boost under its belt. However, if Swoobat uses Calm Mind twice, it can survive an Ice Beam, get the Salac Berry boost, and OHKO with a +4 Stored Power. Bastiodon can phaze away Swoobat's boosts with Roar and only really fears Hidden Power Ground, which it can survive provided Sturdy is intact. Audino and Lickilicky can take a Stored Power after one Calm Mind and a Salac boost,and severely damage Swoobat with Body Slam and Double-Edge, respectively.
While it is difficult to counter Swoobat due to the sheer power of a boosted Stored Power, there exist many checks. Although Swoobat can avoid being revenge killed with Substitute, most Choice Scarf Pokemon, such as Glaceon and Jynx, can take out Swoobat if it hasn't gotten its Salac boost due to its frailty. Priority moves, such as Aqua Jet and Sucker Punch from the likes of Carracosta and Cacturne, can defeat Swoobat provided it isn't behind a Substitute. Golem can KO Swoobat through its Substitute with Rock Blast, though Swoobat can OHKO it with a boosted Stored Power if Golem's Sturdy is broken, making it a very shaky check. Finally, Choice Scarf Impostor Ditto can copy Swoobat's boosts if it is not behind a Substitute, outspeed it, and possibly sweep the rest of Swoobat's team.

memorial day
do you travel or stay home to avoid traffic??
Interesting question, sjf, as I have often felt sad that Memorial Day is no longer the day I remember from my younger years. Back then, it was a day to gather the whole extended family together, gather at the cemetery, clean the grave sites, leave flowers (whatever was available that early in the year - usually iris and peonies) and then celebrate with a meal together with lots of laughter and stories told over and over ~ that usually got more exaggerated as the years went on!
Of course, we paid particular attention to the ones who had served in the military, and everyone repeated those stories as well as the 21 gun-salute fired - to this day, I jump whenever I hear one.
And it wasn't like we just dropped by for an hour or so ~ everyone lived far out on ranches where it took 4-5 hours to get to the cemetery and then twice as long to get back!
But back then, everyone did it ~ it was the one day of the year that the ranch work came to a halt and everyone dropped everything to remember, just for one day, where they had come from and where they were going.
But it has been many years since those days ~ a number of years ago, I made the trip in really lousy weather ~ cold, sleet and hail and made it in time to see that no one else was there from our extended families. I realized then that I was the last one standing ~ even though I was quite young at the time....
It had turned into a 3 day weekend for most and the first camping trip of the summer for others ~ so sad. So no, I won't be traveling anywhere this Memorial Weekend except back into time when the day meant something to all of us.
Anyone else remember those times?
Times change, and seems so can holiday traditions or celebrations. I recall going out to the local cemeteries to place flowers.
Our generation just may be the last to consider "decoration of graves" as a common Memorial day event? I personally no longer do it, nor do many of my generation (unless we take our elderly there to put out their grave decor).
People often live far from where their roots once were, just a fact for both jobs and desire to move. Plus the practice of cremation becoming more common and often ash dispersal rather than cemetery interment.
Spending the day enjoying life, family, and a bit of remembering the past is about all we will do.
From childhood on I've never had family within 500 miles of me to consider this graveside custom and honestly I wouldn't know any of these people if I could locate the graves. Our immediate family have all practiced cremation when the occasion arose and I plan to do the same.
conrad and mamaspoon, I hear you both ~ seems like a common theme that people have moved far away from their roots (and I understand that) and no longer have any connection that makes a memorial day make any sense...
And, yet we have a three day weekend called "Memorial Day" to celebrate it? Maybe we should re-name it something else? FIRST SUMMER WEEKEND or something similar????
The original Memorial (or Decoration) Day was to honor those who were killed defending the nation. It had nothing to do with family; at least not directly. It evolved into family get together and decorating all graves because family lived within a small area. Then it evolved for many into a family get together without visiting the graves. And for many this evolved getting together at the summer camp or cabin.
So things evolve. If we want to go back to the origin we need to go back to just honoring the death of those who died serving their country.
So while we may miss the activities we did as children or young adults it really has nothing to do with Memorial Day.
I agree, metwo, so why do we still call it "Memorial Day?"
And since things evolve this may someday go back to being the rememberance for the fallen soldier. After all in recent years we have taken to thank our living soldier. This Day may come full circle so we thank the dead ones too.
We used to have a parade which ended at the cemetery. We also took peonies to the family graves. It seemed that everyone did that back then. I should really visit my parents' grave site but I haven't done it in a couple of years. My suburb has a soccer tournament and it's just the first holiday weekend of the summer here. Kind of sad that no one seems to remember any more but it's true that so many people have moved away.
Growing up I always went with my parents to put
peonies on the graves. I continue to do this
every year. The peonies I take are from the
bushes my Grandmother had in her yard. My niece also has some of the plants in her yard.
These plants have to be at least 80 years old because I am 72 and was born after she died. It just wouldn't be Memorial Day without honoring our family members and service men.
My husband's parents live in the same state as his grandparents' and other family members who are buried. We know they DO go and put the flowers for Memorial Day.
My family is coast to coast and it would take us 3 days to do this, which direction? Our sister has said she goes and is thankful the military puts up the little red, white and blue flags which is spectacular on all military gravesites. She has sent me pics;and, it is spectacular. Every family situation is different. Some of us just take time to remember our family members without the travel.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust....but memories....they are with us forever.
Well said.
We have told our kids, after we pass, if they want to honor us...maybe go out for a walk and have a Sundae or other treat (something they enjoy), and think of us. We choose to celebrate life, and live it while here.
My husband works for the government and we live for federal holidays so we can all hang out together and play games and eat dinner together.
My parents roots were in one state and their children were born in another. Until they died we had no graves to visit or decorate.
However I now live far away from my home state and so still have no graves. However I do like to visit cemeteries and read the tombstones. There is a very small one nearby where the people died as early as the 17th century and were killed by indians.
Maybe some on these forums who are historians know that there is an online site that has photographs of gravestones. . . find a grave.com. . . this is an invaluable aid to those interested in genealogy.
Have already explained our gravesite situation. However, we don't like to travel great distances on holiday weekends and fight the traffic ; instead prefer get togethers within 50 miles of home.

I just watched the CBS game show Power of 10 hosted by Drew Carey and was shocked by one of the poll results. For those of you who don't know the show, basically the show polls people ahead of time and asks them how they feel about a certain question or issue. Then a contestant has to guess, within a range, how people responded.
The show makes a point of telling us that the polls are national and do not reflect any one area of the country or segment of the population. I cannot verify that of course, although the website does assure us the polls are conducted by a professional polling organization. (See note below.)
Tonight, the last question was about Iraq. The poll taken asked a supposedly national sample whether the U.S. should stay in Iraq to "finish the war." Continue reading

This 3M product works perfectly! After you remove the blue sheet and cut around your pickguard,don't try (like I did) to get between the 3m backing and the adhesive..just remove the backing,as the adhesive film is micro thin and already on your pickguard! Great product !
I also found it difficult to separate the blue backing tape from the adhesive part, it stuck to both sides. The size is only enough to do one pickguard. So I had to use what I had.(used on a '75 Martin D28) They should sell it in 8x11 sheets or packs of more them 1.
This is the perfect adhesive for attaching acoustic pickguards. Easy to work with.
This 3M product works great. Be nice if it was sold in packs of 10 for a substantially reduced price.
Used this stuff several times and never had a problem as long as the surface was clean and flat.
I really found it difficult to separate the foil from the adhesive part, from both sides.
But if I can't find anything better I would use it any way :-)
Used on a troublesome Gibson Hummingbird, solved problem...
I approached this stuff with trepidation. My J45 had been missing its pickguard for decades, but the original finally turned up. I was afraid it would be a stick-to-itself pain. BUT I was SO wrong. It was very easy to use, I am thinking of other non instrument related uses!
Ordered 6 months ago and finally got around to trying it on a strat look-alike that I was restoring/improving for a friend. I was some black pickguard material to make a screwless hybrid pickguard.
The adhesive peeled off the blue backer pretty well. It was them rolled out onto the virgin guard material which was clean. The paper backing sheet peeled off the adhesive layer in a blochy manner. I'd say that a full 10-15% stayed with the paper and some of the adhesive on the guard was caused to ball up a bit. I was able to roll the guard unto the guitar OK, but not so that I would call it a professional repair. Since we are a serious pro shop now, I'd have to pass on this material for anyone who actually would count on it. Having done only one, I'd have to try it again. However based on what I saw, I wouldn't expect too much.
I was going to try using some adhesive spray or carpet tape but this stuff gave me confidence in securing the custom guard...thx again!

total square footage of a quonset hut
Please help me figure out the total volume of a quonset hut. I need to know how many cubic feet it can hold. Width=80 height = 24 length= 205 all in feet
#2 2005-08-16 14:37:12
Re: total square footage of a quonset hut
A quonset hut would be half of a right solid cylinder. Length is given as 205 feet. Width is given as 80 feet, and height 24 feet. But if the width is 80 feet, the height would have to be 25.46479 feet. That is obtained by dividing 80 by pi.
Character is who you are when no one is looking.
#3 2005-08-16 20:16:39
Re: total square footage of a quonset hut
Isn't the width the diameter and the height the radius? And if so, wouldn't height be width/2?
Why did the vector cross the road?
It wanted to be normal.
#4 2005-08-17 10:03:31
Re: total square footage of a quonset hut
It looks like the Wiki's designation of the quonset as a smeicircle is incorrect--it's not limited to being a half-circle only. Otherwise, the dimensions of the original quonsets that they published would be incorrect. So, it must be a segment of a circle, and we need to find the radius of that circle.

Re: total square footage of a quonset hut
I visited the web site mentioned by the person who started this thread. The photos of a Quonset hut reveal that they are about a third of a circle, not a semi-circle. What I mean is that the center of the circle is below the ground about ten feet.

Re: total square footage of a quonset hut
With the center of the circle 16 feet (40-24) below ground, I made a rough estimate of the answer.

I've been watching the bad IMEI problem over a few weeks now. There are many people like me out there, where the seczone can't be fixed or virginized.
Me and i think all the other people would be very grateful if someone with the adequate knowledge could tell us if a seczone builder is possible?
I'm not asking for a complete 1-click solution or anything else in this direction.
I just wan't to know if it is possible or how i can find out, which part of my corrupted seczone leads to this currently unfixable problem.
If we could geht some detailed information / help from some professionals, we could maybe find a solution by ourselves, based on this information.
My phone is fucked up, and i'm not afraid of testing some code to bring the seczone back to their right condition.

"I loved this card but needed the wording at the top of the card for my picture. Called customer service and the told me what I needed to do. Super easy and turned out just the way I wanted. Loved the ability to customize...for free!!!"
"I ordered this card in Wintergreen (with the red striped back), using the Pearl White Shimmer paper. The paper quality was beautiful - the shimmer added an elegant special touch to the card. I have not sent these out yet, so I can't comment on the color transfer to the envelope.... but regardless, the card came out beautifully! My only "complaint" with Tiny Prints is that your options to minimize/enlarge and position photos is fairly limited. I couldn't position my photo exactly as I had hoped so had to cut off some of the photo to make it work with this template."
"The card was beautifully done. I am pleased with the card. The only negative was that the red bled onto the front of one the envelopes that I had paid extra for to have it addressed on the back. So now I have one less envelope."
"The card was very nice but the back of the card I chose green and it was hard to write a message on the card. But the customer service was amazing. FEDX delivered to a neighbor but I did not know for a few days...but the company overnighted another order free of charge and saved the day. Everything got sent out by christmas!"
"This is the first time I did a photo card uploaded to one of these sites. We received all sorts of compliments on this card. More importantly, we loved it. The matte finish and the quality of the card stock paper was impeccable. We picked this card because we were looking for more autumnal colors rather than the normal red and green holiday colors. Also loved the simplicity of the greeting. We changed our photo to a vintage coloring which looked great with the brown of the card and added a small photo of our dog to the back of the card. Thank you - we will remember you for all future events."

Pier 16 South Seaport, New York, NY | Directions 1000441.425183 -71.482214
BEWARE! DO NOT BUY TICKETS ONLINE! We bought tickets to ride The Beast online thinking we would bypass waiting in the ticket line at the pier. They took my credit card info and gave me a confirmation #. I get to the pier the next day and see the sign: THE BEAST IS NOT OPERATING DUE TO MECHANICAL ISSUES. Of course the tickets are nonrefundable but the rude ticket lady informs me that tickets are good for one year and The Beast should be running again in a couple of weeks. Too bad I was only in NYC for 4 days. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! They should have at least put something on their website letting people know the beast was not operating. Again, DO NOT BUY TICKETS ONLINE! WHAT A SCAM!
A Great Way to Spend an Afternoon – My sister and her boyfriend were visiting and we decided to make a day in NYC. Four of us went on the 3 hour full island tour, narrated by an older man with silvery gray hair and bright blue eyes. The tour guide was fantastic and pointed out landmarks, bridges, and interesting facts about the island. He even had hints for remembering the order of the first 3 bridges on the East River (B-M-W stands for Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Williamsburg). It was a great value at $35 per ticket. A little hint for picking your seat...left hand side at the front of the boat!
4th of July on the Circle Line – We traveled to NYC for the 4th of July for the first time ever this year. To be honest I was a bit concerned with the crowd watching the fireworks so I wanted a solution that would give is a great view without having to deal with the massive crowd.
I read some reviews of the Circle Line tours but couldn't find on specifically about the 4th of July cruise (which is quite a bit more expensive than the standard tour) thought the reviews I did read were mostly favorable so I went ahead and bit the bullet and got tickets for me, my husband, our German exchange student, her family, and our best friends. There were 7 of us in total, a large group and an even larger bill!
We were able to walk from our hotel which was in midtown. Bring your voucher with you! The cops blocked off 12th avenue and they weren't going to allow us through with our backpacks but I showed him our voucher and off we went. We had a couple bottles of wine in the backpack so we were really gonna be upset if we couldn't bring it to the boat. So then we waited in line in the blistering heat for about half an hour (which was not all that bad) and they even had Uncle Sam on stilts come by to entertain (and squirt us with his umbrella that made it's own rain).
Snap snap took our picture (which didn't turn out that well, but no big deal). Snap snap through security and there we were on the boat!
My husband cleaverly scoped out a spot on the back of the boat that if we sat was protected from the sun (I, and some others in our party are EXTREMELY pale). The captain then came on and announced the best place to see the fireworks would be the back of the boat (horray us, having the front row). So we camped our little row for the next couple of hours with our wine (lots of jealous looks on peoples faces when we popped out those bad boys) and friendship and photo taking and enjoying the sights. They even drove us by Lady Liberty.
We did have some opposition from the (smaller) crowd on the boat, people trying to squeeze into our spot...the people that sat inside in the air conditioning until night and then tried to come out and get a good spot but we felt like we'd been there the whole time sweating in the sun and we deserved our spot so we held our ground (which became increasingly more difficult as the time got closer to blastoff of course) but we did and it was well worth the effort and it was some of the most amazintg fireworks we've ever seen. Germany has nothing like it, so it was an awesome true American experience for our exhcnage student and her family.
The onboard snacks and drinks provided were expensive but the staff was mostly nice.
Recommend: sunscreen, staking out your spot well, bring a bottle or 2 of wine, have a great time! Well worth the high price tag!
Zephyr Boat Cruse by Circle Line – You have options of sitting on the sundeck, interior, or right or left side of the boat. We, unfortunately, sat on the left side. The whole time, the narrarator kept pointing out the attractions on the "right side of the boat". It was so irritating! While he was talking about the skyline, we were looking at the jersey side of the water. On the way back while we were looking at the skyline, he was talking about the the attractions on the jersey side of the water. We did not get our money's worth .. but maybe the right side of the boat did!
Fun for locals and visitors – I grew up in NYC and don't usually do "tourist" activities, but the Circle Line Downtown is really awesome. I took some friends from out of town to the Thursday Happy Hour Cruise and we all had a great time. If you want a guided tour, then the Circle Line from 42nd street has the full island circle tour which is quite comprehensive. However, if you want to just have a great time on the water, snap some pictures and take in the view, the downtown Circle Line is way better. Plus going down to the South Street Seaport is alot cooler than going to Times Square if you ask me!
Circle Line Zephyr Cruise – I used to live in NYC, but now reside in NJ. I thought a great way to show NYC to visiting relatives might be a Circle Line cruise. The cruise that ends at sunset was the perfect time to show off the city, but beware: don't bother showing up early to stand in line in the hopes of snagging the perfect seat. You WILL get the perfect seat, only to have latecomers stand at the rails and completely obstruct your views. It was incredibly frustrating for all the seated passengers. The management should have standing room only in special areas (as they do on smaller cruise boats) or perhaps not allow more people than seats per deck. Also, the commentary over the loudspeaker was not that enlightening and mostly destroyed the peacefulness of the trip. When my next set of relatives arrives next month, we will NOT be going on a Circle Line cruise.
Editorial Review – Cruises offer drinks and dancing and will host events with some breathtaking views of New York City.
Local Secret – The irony is that native New Yorkers love the Circle Line at least as much as tourists. What better way to relax and get some perspective than to circle the island and see it all from afar? Plus, the uptown half of the trip passes shores you'd never believe were part of the big city -- little shanties that seem to belong thousands of miles away from the built-up nabes downtown. Best time is at sunset -- especially as you glide by the Statue of Liberty. Like the best Broadway -- it's hokey, but it works.

On June 26, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled on Arizona SB 1070, a bill concerning immigration. In its ruling, the court unanimously declared one part was constitutional, but three other parts were not. The part that can be enforced by the state said that state law enforcement officers, while involved in stopping suspects for vehicle violations, robbery, assault or other defined criminal acts, had the authority to hold the suspects for a short period of time sufficient to inquire of federal officials concerning whether the suspects were legal or not.
Immediately, upon receiving the ruling, Secretary Janet Napolitano of the Department of Homeland Security issued a directive to all states canceling all current agreements between the states and the DHS and would no longer accept calls from the states that inquired the legal status of detained suspects.
If this is not a clear and open act of defiance of the intent of the law and no member of Congress has the guts to stand up and challenge the DHS and President Obama, this nation has descended beyond imagination.
When a person enlists in the military, we took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. I believe that all elected federal officials are also subject to the same oath.
Since the Supreme Court ruled that the enforcement of the borders of the United States is a responsibility of the federal government and the president has chosen to ignore his stated duty, I believe that this is one of many grounds for impeachment. However, the process would take us well into 2013. If this nation has stooped to the point where ignorant and selfish people re-elect the president, then Congress should begin the process of impeachment as one of its first orders of business.
Neither the president, the house minority leader, the senate minority leader, nor Secretary Napolitano have any real regard for the security of our nation or the welfare of any of its citizens. Although none of them has the wealth of Bill Gates, George Soros or George Romney, each of them could very well be included in the 1 percent that Democrats so loudly condemn as greedy. I've had enough. How about you? Prove it in November.

Small Business & Taxation
At Issue
The American Dental Association consistently provides its perspective to Congress and the Administration on small business issues of concern to our dentist members. Some business issues include allowing dentists and other small businesses to use the cash method of accounting over the accrual method and expansion of the Sec. 179 expensing provision for capital equipment purchases.
Since the vast majority of our 157,000 members consider themselves small business owners, the ADA commissioned a study to measure the economic impact dentists have on the economy. The study concluded that dentists' offices provide substantial benefits to local, state and national economies, with a total economic impact estimated at over $200 billion per year.Return to Top
In the NewsReturn to Top
ADA Priorities
- Regulatory compliance costs small businesses an estimated $600 billion per year, and a recent study found businesses with less than 20 employees are paying double what their larger counterparts pay for tax compliance.
- Rising healthcare costs also pose significant challenges for dentists. Healthcare rates have gone up by nearly 80 percent since 2000.
- Access to capital is critical. Small businesses, on average, pay double that of large employers to access financing. We need to lower the cost of capital for dental practices to ensure improved access to care.
- The more it costs to run a dental practice, the more expensive dental care becomes. The government should continue to reduce the burdens placed on small businesses and dental offices while increasing growth opportunities. Doing so will help improve access to oral health care for all Americans.

Home Depot is good for what its good for but as an overall source of hardware, its dreadful.
