Freddie Mac's Ed Haldeman Shares Housing Sector Outlook and Tips on Leadership
This is a great opportunity for employees to learn how politics work and how public opinion is shaped
Haldeman projected low real estate prices in 2011, a weak recovery in 2012 and continued slow growth in the following years. He also described a recent white paper from the Department of the Treasury and the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, which set forth a plan for reforming the American housing finance market.
In light of the fragile real estate sector, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac should remain operational for 5-7 years, according to the plan. The white paper also outlined a range of possible futures for government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs), calling for an increase in private capital in the mortgage market and a decrease in the percentage of mortgages that are tied to government backing.
Citing recent headlines of Freddie Mac and sister entity Fannie Mae being wound down, Haldeman expressed how challenging it is to run a company and keep employees engaged when the future is uncertain. He described several practices that he employs to keep Freddie Mac's 6,000+ employees motivated:
- Promoting transparency and constantly communicating with employees in every way possible – e.g., e-mails, voicemails, coffees, lunches and more
- Explaining Freddie Mac's important role in supporting the country's frail housing market and inspiring employees to keep working because "their jobs matter"
- Underscoring how employees will have a "front row seat" to a significant piece of US history
"This is a great opportunity for employees to learn how politics work and how public opinion is shaped," explained Haldeman. Above all else, he stressed that it was in the country's best interest to keep "the machine" working. This spirit of public service is partly why he took the job – a position that many friends and colleagues told him he was "crazy" to take.
Haldeman recalled the tumultuous circumstances when he came on board – Freddie Mac just finished a year in which its stock holdings and 401K were wiped out and the organization was operating without a Chief Financial Officer or Chief Operations Officer.
When asked about career growth, Haldeman offered several pieces of advice:
- Show up on time and get the job done on deadline
- Maintain a good work-life balance
- Minimize anxiety in your personal life
- Don't let ego dictate your actions; stay connected and maintain a sense of perspective
- Do what you're interested in and what "matches" your skills
- Find ways to give back to the community
Haldeman also underlined the importance of relating to people and working well in teams – a key characteristic that he looks for in new hires.

A new film based around a letter John Lennon sent to a fan, called Imagine, will start production this spring, according to Ultimate Classic Rock. The movie, set to star Al Pacino and Julianne Moore, is based on real life musician Steve Tilston, who Lennon wrote to after reading an interview with him talking about his fears of "succumbing to the trappings of fame." Lennon wrote a letter to Tilston in 1971-- but Tilston never knew of its existence until the letter was purchased by a collector who tracked Tilston down to show him Lennon's encouraging response.Screenwriters have adapted the story and turned Tilston into precisely the decadent rock star he had hoped he wouldn't become. The character based on Tilston, now named "Danny Collins" will be portrayed by Pacino with Julianne Moore starring as the hotel manager where "Collins moves into as part of his quest for redemption." No start date has been announced for the film.

I never cheat on the BFL diet. Not so much as a bite here and there, but these past couple of days I have been taking some bites and making "not wise" decisions. I have a BFL success journal and lately have not been very motivated to keep writing and planning in it.... I still do, but I am lacking the motivation. I know I lose my excitement over new things after the second or third week and am terrified this will happen to the BFL program.
Does anyone feel this? What can I do to get totally motivated again? I don't even want to read success stories anymore.
Stacy Lynn
How far into the challenge are you?
""Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out..." - Robert J. Collier"
Ending my 4th week
You already know the answer to your question Stacy. You have slipped. Mark it down to experience, remember how you feel about it and get back on track. Plan your meals and eat every 2-3 hours. I am using the journal as well. It is a great tool if you use it. Open it every morning and write your meals, check them off as you go. I find it has helped to cook and package a bunch of meals at one time. Today is my free day and I am cooking for next week.
If you haven't removed the tempting items from your home already, do it now.
You have to decide what your true goals are. Do you want to be healthier? Do you want to look more fit, lose fat and build muscle? My friend it is not easy to break those old habits, but every day that you stay on track is one day closer to your goals.
How are you doing with your exercise? Have you been hitting your "10s?" Your body is loving you if you have.
Congratulations on making it this far, please stick with it for your sake alone. Hop back into it from right where you are.
You are not alone.
Sorry no magic pill or words of advice, I'm feeling my way thru it too. Take 10 minutes every night before bed to plan the next day?
Don't let the slip turn into a fall! Move forward or move back, all up to you.
--- Kitty
My motivation is my dreams, goals, reasons and new patterns......I am on day 81. To get there I had to do it.....One day at a time....sometimes one hour at a time.....sometimes one minute at a time. Progress not perfection is a mantra that I focus on. One of the things that helps me on a daily basis is to read my DREAM page, my 12 WEEK GOALS, REASONS and most importantly the Transforming Patterns of Action. Those are my thoughts, my dreams, my goals, my wants, my desires, my present and my future. So I really don't have 81 days, I have this moment. When I see my thinking going to the old me, I actually forgetting what my priorities are or were. So I read my new way of thinking, my new me on those pages, I get my thinking straight and then do it. The commitment I made to my self is that no matter what happens in my life positive or negative, good or bad, etc...etc....I will and I can do this "one day at a time". I am ready for a change. If I want to change some things in my life then I need to change some things in my life. I've heard others say that Insanity is Doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. I'm trusting Bill Phillips way of exercising, eating and thinking. I tell everyone who is interested so I have accountability. For example I'm traveling with work and I ordered a meal to go tonight. The bartender/waitress asked me what I wanted. I said I wanted to eat healthy. That started a conversation about being fit. I mentioned I was tired from a long day. I got up to do my cardio workout. and the conversation went on from there. I ordered tuna and steamed brocolli, and I feel great for doing it. I look for ways to share my goals with people. It helps me help me and it helps me help others. On the bottom of the back page of the success journal there is a quote.......THOUSANDS HAVE ALREADY SUCCEEDED---NOW ITS YOUR TURN. I believe that. I really do. My experience has shown me that no matter how I struggle before I plan and write my mindset, exercise and nutrition I feel better once I do.......then, when I take the action to do it, I feel absolutely fantastic. One of my new transforming patterns is to "Plan , Act, and Witness My Own Exercising vs witnessing others doing it. The last thing I'll say is if you're ready to do one decision at a time - do it. If you're not, then don't. No need to feel guilt either way. It's a choice. It's late and I need to rest for my LBWO in the morning. Peace to you!!
Great post northern IL Russ.
Sometimes you have to just step back and say, am I worth it? Is this all worth it? And I hope your answer is yes. Because you are worth it. And anything you have to work for is soooo much sweeter than something given to you.
I am ending my week 3 and have been feeling discouraged about only losing 3 pounds. I have totally changed my eating habits and been working my ass off!!! But this morning I woke up with a vision in my head of me with a great stomach, flat and you could start to see the muscle under the skin. Although it was just a vision, it is what I am holding on to. I have a few more challenges ahead of me, but now I have a vision to drive me.
FInd your vision, hold on to it, and know you are worth it! Your goal may not be to have ripped abs, but just feeling better and the sense of accomplishment is all worth it. BEST OF LUCK!! Don't quit now!!
Sounds like you are so into it, you burned yourself out. You put 1000% up front and now are exhausted. Maybe you spent hours reading success stories or maybe you planned too much. Sounds like you should relax and pace yourself. Rome wasn't built in a day. Just make it a routine you have and maybe don't focus so hard. That doesn't mean follow the program any less, it just means don't spend a lot of time thinking about this program. You still need to have a life outside of working out and eating healthy.
Stacy your doing great!! Keep it up!
I think I have A.D.D., I get excited and jump in and do something all out and then I get bored. Here are a couple ideas to keep that interest and excitement... Set a new higher challenge like I am going to do BFL everday and tell 3 people everyweek about BFL. That helps keeps you focused and it also sets you up as an example so you wont want to fail because now others are looking up to you. Maybe a new goal is to get your workouts done in the morning first thing so you have all day to prepare for the next day. There is always something you can add to get new excitement in this challenge.
Also look back to your reason for starting BFL, your emotional trigger. When I get burned out I open my workout binder and there I have my emotional trigger taped on a piece of paper and I also have my before picture, after picture and a picture of a body I want to have with my face pasted on it. That gives me that extra boost to re-energize and get out of my funk.
Also journal everyday!! It makes you accountable to yourself and you are the most important person you can impress by completing this challenge!
Take care and I hope you can find that excitement to keep on going full steam!
Hey there you;
ISOLATE ISOLATE ISOLATE. You are doing a great job dear and the payoff will be fabulous. Keep at it - you know you can do it. You have come this far and you can do it again. ACT YOUR WAY TO BETTER THINKING. One day at a time will get you to the finish before you know it.
I, too, am feeling this way. I have been at this for a month now, and I see very little difference still sore all the time, tired all the time. I feel like I haven't "earned" my free day coming up bc I haven't lost any weight and I see only very very small differences. I guess though, since I wasn't overweight and somewhat fit to begin with, it will take longer for my results.
Maybe this is the same case with you. I'm sure that it will turn out for all of us who are doubting/slipping.
BTW, you don't have to read success stories, just look at the before/after pics! That works for me!
Keep up the hard work....
"The joy of life is the fruit of discipline" -S. Randall
OOOHHH Girl, I felt (notice the tense of the verb) the same way when I was there. I'm on week 6 now and let me tell you - it will pass! You just have to stop trippin over every little thing you do wrong and just keep moving forward!
I have not "seen" the results yet, but I "feel" the results! I feel great, I can breath easier, i eat healthier - everything! On the cheating: have you noticed that the cheat food is not as good as you remember?!
I certainly have. On my free days, I have my pancakes and latte for breakfast and after that I just say to myself, "Geez, I was sweating the whole week over that??!" I mean, it's good, but it's not so good that it is what my whole week should be focused around, you know?
Thanks for the tip. I look forward to the coming weeks. I might be a little discouraged but I am still just as determined to finish this!
Thanks....I read your bio, its good to hear you are on your 3rd time. Great job!! I will complete my first tomorrow am, day 83!! I'm excited to get to the end. Do people take time off or just keep going? What's recommmended?

Re: Murkalot
We're aware of a bug where Murkalot is not showing up for our EU members as "collected." This is a result of a bug in the official EU WoW Armory. It's not something we can easily fix on our end. Until it's corrected on Blizzard's end, there's little we can do. :-/
If you're one of the collectors affected by this bug, bring it up on the official WoW forums for your region. If enough people are vocal about it, Blizzard might address it that much sooner.

Re: Tiny Flamefly@Alein: Pet rarities are based on the number of WarcraftPets users who have collected a given pet. Since we just added this one to the site yesterday, it came up as ultra-rare. But I agree, that's confusing so I manually changed it to uncommon. We'll see what the stats say in a week or two and we'll update it again.

Re: PenguI agree -- Pengu's eyes should remain red so that he continues to be unique (and evil). Instead of posting your distaste for this change here, I urge you to add your support to the suggestion thread on the official WoW forums. If enough people post, they may yet change our beloved little Pengu back to his demonic self.
UPDATE: Kinda sad to see a blue-eyed Pengu after the launch of 3.3. :-(

Telling everyone that you think its unfair that you can't get it or degrading another country is not helpful to anyone. Thanks!

Re: Mr. ChillyIf you still haven't got Mr. Chilly, try the following:
- Log in on EU/US Battle.net
- Change your password
- Relog onto WoW
- Receive Mr. Chilly
A GM suggested these steps to Aldun, one of our members, and he confirmed that it works. Apparently doing this refreshes your account details and "checks" if you received the penguin.

Xau: I believe it used to sing, hence our removal of that info from this pet's profile. From what I recall, they removed it in patch 3.2 because it was an unintended bug. I know I haven't heard this or any of the other Mysterious Egg-hatched pets sing since 3.1.

Re: Siamese CatThis is one of my favorite pets. It's old-school, I know. No flashy animations. No sound. No special effects. Just a pretty kitty whose colors remind me of my own Persian himmy.
Oh, and the "Breanni Says" above is based on real events - no joke, lol.

Re: FigurePetsI know I'm psyched to start collecting these "real life" vanity pets! I'm really curious to see how they handle flying pets in future sets.
UPDATE: I just received my FigurePets and they look great! If you're on the fence about getting one, I think you will be very pleased with what you get. They are wonderful display pieces for any die-hard pet collector.

Suwon confirm Jong Tae-se signing
South Korean club Suwon Samsung Bluewings have confirmed the signing of North Korean international Jong Tae-se from Cologne.
By ESPNSTAR.com staff
Jong, nicknamed 'The People's Rooney', first caught the attention of world football after an impressive performance for the Chollima in the when they fell to a narrow 2-1 defeat to Brazil in the group stages 2006 World Cup.
The 28-year-old joined Cologne last January as a backup striker for an injured Lukas Podolski but has yet to score for the club after nine appearances in over a year and has been linked with a move to the K-League since last November.
Suwon Samsung Bluewings and Ulsan Hyundai Tigers were both reported to be interested in the player but Jong has previously indicated a preference for the Bluewings, who are considered one of the most popular clubs in Korea.
Officials from the club confirmed that Jong will sign for them pending medical tests, which will be taken next week.
"We've finalized talks with Koln over the transfer fee for Jong Tae-se," the official told Yonhap News Agency.
"He will arrive in South Korea as early as next Monday for medical tests."
It was reported that Suwon will pay Cologne 300,000 euros (US$395,850) for the player while Jong's salary is reportedly around 400 million won (US$376,000).
Jong will become the second North Korean to play for Suwon Bluewings in recent years after international team mate An Yong-hak, who has also previously played for the club from 2008 to 2009.

Jr. Rangers conquer Comets
By Matt Myers
Unaka's Jr. Rangers finally conjured up some physical defense to go along with their up-tempo scoring attack. The result was a 51-35 triumph over Central on the Comets' home court Thursday evening.
For Unaka skipper Tee Blevins, the victory was a welcomed display of what is being taught at practice — as well as a showcase of scoring prowess from the roundball squad's key weapons,
"Our offense has been good all year," Blevins said. "Tonight we were able to combine it with defense, which is good. That is something we have been stressing in practice this season. I also have to hand it to our Big 3, Kyler Lewis, Austin Beauprez and Josh Nave all stepped up and had a big game. That was the first time they have played that well together all season. They really helped us to play well as a whole."

William Thad Cochran (born December 7, 1937) is the senior United States Senator from Mississippi and a member of the Republican Party. First elected to the Senate in 1978, he is currently the ranking member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, having previously chaired that Committee from 2003 to 2005 and also chaired the Senate Appropriations Committee from 2005 to 2007. Cochran is the third most-senior Senator and the second most-senior Republican member.
Early life
Cochran was born in Pontotoc, Mississippi, the son of Emma Grace (née Berry) and William Holmes Cochran, a teacher and school principal, respectively. His family settled in Hinds County, Mississippi, home of the state capital, Jackson, in 1946 after a few moves around the northern part of the state. Cochran still lives in Jackson today. Cochran earned Eagle Scout as a youth and was awarded the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award as an adult. He graduated valedictorian2 from Byram High School near Jackson and received a B.A. degree from the University of Mississippi with a major in psychology and a minor in political science in 1959. There he joined the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity and was on the cheerleading squad (fellow senator Trent Lott was also an Ole Miss cheerleader).3 After a time in the United States Navy (1959–1961), he attended the University of Mississippi School of Law, was elected to the Phi Kappa Phi honor society and graduated in 1965. He then practiced law for seven years. He married Rose Clayton on June 6, 1964; the couple has two children, Clayton and Kate.
Cochran grew up as a Democrat, but became a Republican sometime in the mid-to-late 1960s. He served as head of Richard Nixon's Mississippi campaign in 1968.
U.S. House of Representatives
In 1972, Democratic Congressman Charles H. Griffin of Mississippi's 3rd congressional district decided not to run for a third full term. Cochran won the Republican nomination for the Jackson-based district, which was renumbered as Mississippi's 4th congressional district after redistricting. He defeated Democratic state senator Ellis B. Bodron by 47.9% to 44%. A factor in Cochran's victory was the strong Republican showing in that year's presidential election. Richard Nixon won most of the counties in the 4th district by over 70% of the vote. Hinds County, for instance, gave him 77%, en route to taking 78% of Mississippi's popular vote.
That year, Cochran and Trent Lott (who later served alongside him in the U.S. Senate) became the second and third Republicans to be elected to represent Mississippi in the House of Representatives since Reconstruction.
Cochran quickly became very popular in his district, even though almost none of its living residents had been represented by a Republican before. He was handily re-elected with 70.2% in 1974, a year in which anger over the Watergate scandal caused several Republicans to lose their seats. He was re-elected with an even larger 76% of the vote in 1976.
U.S. Senate
In 1978, six-term Democratic Senator James Eastland decided to retire. Cochran ran for the seat and won the Republican primary, defeating State Senator and former Jones County prosecutor Charles W. Pickering by 69% to 31%. In the general election, he faced Democrat Maurice Dantin, a former District Attorney who had triumphed in a four-way primary with the backing of Eastland, and Independent candidate Charles Evers, the Mayor of Fayette. Evers, the first African-American to be elected Mayor of a Mississippi town since Reconstruction, split the Democratic vote and Cochran won with a plurality, taking 45.3% to Dantin's 31.8% and Evers' 22.6%.4 This made Cochran the first Republican to win a statewide election in Mississippi in a century.5 Eastland resigned on December 27 to give Cochran a seniority advantage over new incoming senators. Governor Cliff Finch appointed Cochran to serve the remaining week of Eastland's term.6
Cochran faced a strong challenge for re-election from incumbent Democratic Governor William Winter in 1984 but he was re-elected with 60.9% to Winter's 39.1%. For decades, he did not face a serious challenger. He was completely unopposed in 1990 and took 71% of the vote in 1996. The Democratic nominee, Bootie Hunt, a retired factory worker, took just 27.4%. No Democrat ran against him in 2002 and he faced only Reform Party candidate Shawn O'Hara, beating him by 84.6% to 15.4%. He faced his first serious challenger in 24 years in 2008 when the Democrats nominated State Representative Erik R. Fleming. In a year that saw widespread Democratic gains, Cochran was re-elected with 61.4% to Fleming's 38.6%.
If Cochran completes his current term, he will pass Eastland as the second-longest serving Senator in Mississippi's history. Until 1989, Cochran served alongside Democrat John C. Stennis, the longest-serving Senator in Mississippi's history. As of 2013 he is the fourth-longest currently serving Senator, and the second-longest serving Republican.
Generally, Cochran keeps a lower national profile than conventional wisdom would suggest for a six-term Senator. This stands in marked contrast to Eastland, Stennis and Lott. However, Cochran has considerable influence behind the scenes, especially in Mississippi. This is not surprising given his status as the "elder statesman" of the state Republican Party.
Cochran served as Vice Chairman of the Senate Republican Conference from 1985 to 1991 and as Chairman from 1991 to 1996. He is its only former Chairman currently in the Senate. He Chaired the Senate Agriculture Committee from 2003 to 2005. In 2005, he was appointed as Chairman of the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee, making him the first Republican from a former Confederate state to chair the committee. He is currently the ranking Republican on the Agriculture Committee.
His colleagues have honored him. In 2005, an agricultural appropriations bill proposed by the Committee Cochran chaired contained a provision (sec. 782) that said:
|The Federal facility located at the South Mississippi Branch Experiment Station in Poplarville, Mississippi, and known as the "Southern Horticultural Laboratory", shall be known and designated as the "Thad Cochran Southern Horticultural Laboratory"7
In April 2006, he was selected by Time as one of "America's 10 Best Senators". He was dubbed "The Quiet Persuader" for his role in winning money for the Gulf Coast in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. He managed to win "$29 billion out of his colleagues, almost double the money [President George W.] Bush and congressional leaders had initially pledged".8 Earlier, Cochran threatened to derail a defense appropriations bill unless it included funding for installations on the Gulf Coast.8
The article also noted that Cochran has "gained the trust of the Administration and Capitol Hill for his quiet, courtly manner... using his experience and mastery of the issues to persuade his colleagues privately rather than making demands on them in public". The magazine quoted an unnamed "senior GOP Senator" who said "He doesn't get a whole lot of play in terms of coverage, but he is effectively stubborn doing what needs to be done."8
On July 18, 2006, Cochran voted, along with 19 Republican Senators, for the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act to lift restrictions on federal funding for the research.
In 2005, he was one of nine senators who voted against the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005, which prohibited "inhumane treatment of prisoners, including prisoners at Guantanamo Bay". The others, all Republicans, were Wayne Allard, Kit Bond, Tom Coburn, Jeff Sessions, Jim Inhofe, Pat Roberts, John Cornyn and Ted Stevens.
In March 2009, his former aide, Ann Copland, pled guilty to swapping legislative favors for event tickets and other gifts from lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Copland worked for Cochran for 29 years.9 Cochran has not been indicted for any charges in connection to Jack Abramoff.
Cochran opposed President Barack Obama's health reform legislation; he voted against the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in December 2009,10 and he voted against the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010.11
In April 2010, it was reported that Cochran finished at the top of the Citizens Against Government Waste's list of congressional earmarks, having requested a total of $490 million in earmarks.12
In 2012, Cochran encouraged Mississippians to prepare for the effects of Tropical Storm Isaac, saying "Taking steps now to protect people and property should help lessen the losses that might be associated with Isaac. It is important that everyone stay informed and follow emergency orders. I am confident that Mississippians have learned valuable lessons from previous storms and will work together to prepare for this newest threat, I believe Governor Bryant and others are handling emergency preparedness actions very well."13
In April 2013, Senator Cochran was one of forty-six senators to vote against the passing of a bill which would have expanded background checks for gun buyers. Cochran voted with 40 Republicans and 5 Democrats to stop the passage of the bill.14
Legislation sponsored
- The Natchez Trace Parkway Land Conveyance Act of 2013 (S. 304; 113th Congress) (S. 304) is a bill that was sponsored and actively lobbied for by Thad Cochran during the 113th United States Congress.1516 The bill would require the National Park Service (NPS) to convey about 67 acres of property in the Natchez Trace Parkway to the state of Mississippi. The legislation also would adjust the boundaries of the parkway to include 10 additional acres.17 The two pieces of land in question originally belong to Mississippi and were donated to the National Park Service when the NPS was trying to determine where to end the Natchez Trace Parkway.1815 Since the NPS did not choose to use either of theses pieces of land, the state would like the land back.18

The generation shift brought Garchomp no notable moves and basically left it the same old Garchomp. This, however, is not a bad thing by any means, since Garchomp is just as as threatening as ever with its great base 102 Speed, which allows it to outspeed a good portion of the tier, and awesome base 130 Attack. In addition, Garchomp also has excellent Dragon- and Ground-type STABs, which allow it to hit nearly everything in the game for at least neutral damage. However, Garchomp does have its shortcomings; its defenses, while still decent, pale in comparison to the Uber tier's powerhouses. Also, its great STAB moves can only carry it so far, and it will sometimes find itself walled quite easily. With the changes BW2 brought to the metagame, namely the reintroduction of Soul Dew, Latias and Latios have seen a major rise in their previously rock-bottom usage. This is a stumbling block for Garchomp, as they both easily outspeed and threaten it with their own powerful Dragon-type attacks if Garchomp isn't using a Choice Scarf.
Garchomp remains as effective a revenge killer as it was last generation. When equipped with a Choice Scarf, it hits a 499 Speed stat, outspeeding every Pokemon in the tier bar Deoxys-S. Fantastic dual STABs allow Garchomp to hit every Pokemon in the tier for at least neutral damage, Skarmory and Bronzong being the only semi-common Pokemon there who resist the combo. Garchomp is especially useful in checking powerful speedy Dragon-types such as Dragon Dance Rayquaza and opposing Choice Scarf users such as Palkia. Outrage, coming off Garchomp's base 130 Attack, allows Garchomp to revenge kill most Pokemon quite reliably. For example, Outrage does 83% - 98% to max HP Zekrom, so it's an OHKO roughly 50% of the time factoring Stealth Rock damage. Earthquake smashes any Steel-type hoping to wall Garchomp to pieces (besides the two semi-common ones mentioned above). Dragon Claw allows Garchomp to use its Dragon-type STAB without getting locked in, and thus avoid becoming setup bait for Pokemon such as Rock Polish Groudon. Stone Edge allows Garchomp to dent Ho-Oh and Lugia, who would otherwise laugh at Garchomp's attempts. Stone Edge is a sure OHKO on Ho-Oh and, with Stealth Rock, has a chance to 2HKO Timid Lugia.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Garchomp's excellent base 102 Speed coupled with its stellar base 130 Attack makes it a powerful Swords Dance sweeper. Garchomp's Speed allows it to outspeed a major part of the Uber tier, most notably Hasty Palkia. Its 108 / 95 / 85 defenses are also better than most other Uber sweepers. With a Swords Dance under its belt, Garchomp reaches a mind-boggling 718 Attack stat. Outrage and Earthquake provide near-perfect coverage, and Stone Edge rounds it off quite well. Fire Fang is can be used to hit Skarmory if Stone Edge's shaky 80% accuracy is a matter of concern.
It is nearly impossible to switch into Garchomp once it has set up properly, since with just Earthquake and Outrage it can 2HKO almost the entire Uber tier, provided entry hazards have been set up. Even Groudon bows down to the wrath of Garchomp, being 2HKOed by a +2 Outrage, and OHKOed with Stealth Rock and 3 layers of Spikes. Almost any Steel-type brave enough to switch in is also swiftly taken down by a powerful STAB Earthquake. Stone Edge helps to kill Ho-Oh and Lugia, while Fire Fang ensures that overzealous Ferrothorn and Skarmory are burnt to a crisp. Life Orb increases Garchomp's damage output and ensures Garchomp will be doing maximum damage. Haban Berry is especially useful against Choice Scarf Palkia and Zekrom, since it allows Garchomp to take a Dragon-type attack from them if need be and KO them with its powerful Outrage. It must be noted, though, that without Life Orb, Garchomp loses the ability to OHKO Lugia switch-ins.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Garchomp makes a fantastic Choice Band user with its excellent Speed and massive Attack stat. With this EV spread, Garchomp reaches 333 Speed and 538 Attack, meaning it will be able to outspeed and KO most of the Pokemon in Ubers. Choice Band allows Garchomp to do insane amounts of damage right off the bat without any prior setup thanks to Garchomp's excellent Dragon- and Ground-type STAB attacks, which have near-flawless coverage. Outrage will crush anything which is not a Steel-type, and Earthquake can 2HKO most Steel-types trying to wall Garchomp. Stone Edge hits any Ho-Oh and Lugia switch-ins hard. Fire Fang can be used to 2HKO Skarmory while the sun is up. Dragon Claw allows Garchomp to use its Dragon-type STAB without locking itself into Outrage.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Garchomp's most infuriating set from OU makes its return in Ubers. With sandstorm support, Sand Veil Garchomp can easily hax the opposition; Substitute is used to scout for a miss and avoid nasty status. After it's safely behind a Substitute, Garchomp can set up using Swords Dance and sweep with its fantastic dual STAB. Understanding this, it is no wonder that this set is extremely easy to use. All Garchomp has to do is to switch in on something harmless, set up a Substitute, and act accordingly. If the opponent is slower than Garchomp, set up Swords Dance and continue to test your luck by making more Substitutes. If you're facing something faster than Garchomp, such as Mewtwo, attack it with Earthquake as they break your Substitute, then switch out immediately. If the opponent fails to break the Substitute, then simply repeat.
Groudon and Kyogre require Garchomp to tread carefully, as they get rid of sandstorm, thus making Sand Veil useless. In Groudon's case, Garchomp can Swords Dance as it breaks its Substitute, and hit Groudon hard with Outrage or Earthquake as it forces Garchomp out with Dragon Tail (which won't KO). If Groudon carries Roar, however, then Garchomp will always lose. Against Kyogre, Earthquake should be used to see how much Speed and bulk it has. If it's slower than Garchomp, it can use Swords Dance the next time Kyogre switches in and KO it. If it is carrying a Choice Scarf, then it's unlikely to be able to switch into Garchomp for a second time.
The moveset is self-explanatory. Substitute and Swords Dance allow Garchomp to set up, sometimes for free. Outrage is the preferred Dragon-type STAB move, since the Uber metagame is much bulkier in general, but Dragon Claw can be used instead for scouting purposes. Earthquake rounds out the set, hitting most Dragon-type resists very hard.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Garchomp does not have a very wide movepool, so it's rather strapped for options. Garchomp can go mixed, but its base 80 Special Attack is rather underwhelming, especially in Ubers. It is best to just stick with physical sets, maybe with Fire Blast thrown in. Crunch can be used to hit Psychic-types harder than Earthquake, but there are better options.
Checks and Counters
Timid Lugia can outspeed all but Choice Scarf Garchomp, set up Reflect in Garchomp's face, Roost off the damage, and then proceed to KO Garchomp with Ice Beam. Groudon can wall the Choice Scarf set to a degree, but it struggles to wall the other sets due to their sheer damage output and its own lack of reliable recovery. Most Steel-types can switch into Garchomp locked into Outrage. Of particular note are Skarmory and Ferrothorn. Skarmory is immune to Earthquake and resistant to Outrage, and can also set up Spikes while Roosting off the damage. Skarmory can even rack up some passive damage with Whirlwind. Ferrothorn can Leech Seed Garchomp and set up Spikes in its face. Thanks to Iron Barbs and Leech Seed, Garchomp will be losing 25% of its health each turn it decides to attack. However, a Fire Fang or Fire Blast will make quick work of either of them. A boosted Earthquake will also 2HKO Ferrothorn easily. Bronzong resists all of Garchomp's moves, and can do some damage with Gyro Ball. Deoxys-D can wall the Choice Scarf set but fails against every other set. Defensive Arceus can stomach a boosted Outrage, outspeed it, and OHKO it with Ice Beam the next turn.
Wobbuffet can revenge kill the Choice sets with ease. Mewtwo can outspeed and KO all but Choice Scarf Garchomp with Ice Beam. Darkrai can also do the same, except it can also put Garchomp to sleep with Dark Void. From there, it can set up on Garchomp and beat it with a boosted Dark Pulse. Choice Scarf Palkia and Zekrom can outspeed and decimate Garchomp with Spacial Rend or Outrage, respectively. However, both need to watch out for Choice Scarf variants and the rare Haban Berry Garchomp.

Still no white line (sigh) on Glorietta! Why isn't Coronado a more bike friendly community?
My husband and I are back in Coronado again and, like many others, are riding our bikes from the Shores down to Ferry Landing, having lunch and riding back again. We take the bike path until it ends on Glorietta, ride on Glorietta beside the golf course, and then get on the bike path again that runs on the far side of the golf course and under the Coronado Bridge. Multiple other bike riders are…Continue

I'm sure everyone in Coronado has walked the boardwalk from the El Camino building to the Hotel Del. There are several nice benches along the boardwalk too where one can sit and enjoy the view of Point Loma and the activities on Coronado Beach. Have you noticed, however, that the city of Coronado has posted HUGE signs directly in front of some of the benches, ruining the view of Point Loma if you choose to sit and relax on one of the benches? Each bench is typically 5-10 feet or so away…Continue

Coronado needs more bike paths. Why doesn't the City of Coronado add a white stripe on Glorietta Blvd, from San Luis Rey (where the current bike path ends) to 5th Avenue (where the bike path beside the golf course begins)?
We bike from the Coronado Shores along the Bay side, but the bike path ends at San Luis Rey and doesn't start up again until 5th Avenue. Glorietta is very wide all the way along the golf course and…Continue

text: My house has a two-pipe, single-loop hydronic heating system with cast iron radiators. I want to add a small cast iron radiator to a new 2nd floor bathroom. The pipes are all black metal with cast iron fittings. How do I tap into the 2.5" O.D. pipes in the basement to run new lines to the 2nd floor. I could tap into nearby lines to other radiators, but I'm thinking that may not be very efficient. I could also remove ten-foot sections between 2 other radiators and tie in a T with 2 shorter lengths on either side, but am concerned about frozen and brittle cast iron fittings. Any suggestions?
