One-Sided Keystone XL Poll Tells the Story Big Oil Wants You To Hear
Cross-posted from the Sierra Club
After a weekend during which tens of thousands of Americans took to the streets to oppose the Keystone XL pipeline and demand solutions to the climate crisis, the American Petroleum Institute (API) is touting a one-sided poll they claim shows Americans supporting the Keystone XL tar sands oil pipeline.
However, a closer look at their poll questions unveils a biased survey which failed to equip respondents with the basic facts of the project before asking them to form an opinion. Instead, API crafted a poll to ensure they got the types of answers they were looking for by totally ignoring the environmental and economic realities of the toxic pipeline from Canada.
You can see the questionnaire for yourself here (PDF). And you'll notice that poll respondents are presented with all types of arguments for the pipeline, but not a single argument against Keystone XL. In fact, the survey doesn't even mention the words "tar sands" at all. Without the proper context, people who had never heard of Keystone XL before could easily associate the pipeline with conventional oil — not the toxic, more carbon-intensive tar sands oil that Keystone XL would transport. Furthermore, there is no mention of the grave risks Keystone XL poses. API's survey ignores any discussion of possible oil spills, drinking water contamination, or climate-disrupting pollution — just to name a few.
The poll also primes respondents to believe that Keystone XL tar sands oil is destined for the U.S. marketplace — rather than noting that it is effectively an export pipeline that pumps tar sands oil through the U.S. to get to the global marketplace. By failing to mention that much of the tar sands oil coming through Keystone XL will be shipped overseas, the survey allows respondents to assume that this oil is destined for the United States and will improve our energy security.
Here's the kicker: Polling conducted by Hart Research last year showed that once American voters hear both the pro and con arguments about the Keystone XL pipeline, they support President Obama's decision to deny the permit for the pipeline by a 47 percent to 36 percent margin. This poll, which surveyed 1,000 voters in the swing states of Colorado, Michigan, Iowa and Ohio, showed that voters were especially worried about the risks to water quality and supplies from tar sands pipeline spills. Moreover, the arguments of API and other Keystone XL supporters were found to be much less powerful once voters learned that much of the tar sands oil will be exported and consumed overseas.
API's polling instrument is incomplete and one-sided, so it's difficult to take any meaning from it — though that doubtlessly won't stop API from declaring it as "proof" Americans want this project. But what this poll is "proof" of is that it's easy to win a one-sided debate. But Americans deserve to know these critical — and basic — facts about Keystone XL before being asked to form an opinion about it.

There is only 1 real supporter of the Key XLpipeline, his name David Koch.
All your arguments against Keystone are illogical or incorrect.
1. Tar Sands is dirty.
Canada is going to develop it's tar sands weather we buy it from them or not. Killing keystone doesn't stop those tar sand resources from getting extracted refined and burned. In fact, it makes it dirtier, because if the US doesn't use it, it will go to China to be refined with next to zero pollution controls.
2. Spills, drinking water contamination.
Pipelines are the safest cleanest mode of transporting liquids in existence. The aquifers "threatened" are all ready crisscrossed with hundreds of miles of pipe. A spill from a surface pipe has next to zero chance of contaminating an aquifer hundreds of feet underground. And the alternative is Canada putting it on boats and floating it across the ocean. Much more risky with a higher carbon footprint.
3. It's an "export" pipeline and won't be useful to us.
Saying Keystone is just an export pipeline and the oil will be shipped overseas, is like saying GM simply exports steel. Oil is a raw material that will be used by the manufacturing industry (refineries) to create a new product(like how GM buys steel and builds cars.)
This is good for a few reasons. Increasing exports is key to growing a stalled economy. And the US has the cleanest refineries in the world. If global warming and pollution is your issue, then you would want the US, with it's strict pollution controls, refining as much of the worlds oil as possible.
Also, number one export in the US right now is refined products (it used to be corn). We do it better, safer and cleaner than anyone else in the world. We shouldn't hamper that, we should embrace it.
This pipeline that folks are protesting is not about stopping Canada from developing the tar sand. It is not about not refining tar sand oil in the US. It is not about stopping the export of tar sand oil or distillates from it. All of that is happening already. Canada has been developing the tar sand for years. The US has been refining it for years. The US has been exporting the distillates from tar sand oil for years. With the completion of the Seaway pipeline upgrade the US may even start exporting raw tar sand oil. What the Keystone XL expansion is about is importing MORE and exporting MORE. What the protest is about is making a statement. It is about making a start. It is about raising awareness that we must to something about climate disruption. Sure, stopping the expansion will not do anything to limit CO2 emissions but we need to raise awareness so eventually we will get legislation that will.
This poll has a crazy breakdown demographically…
The poll has a rural population of 41%. The national value according to the 2010 Census is 19.3%.
The poll has a percentage of white (non-hispanic) respondents of 63%. The 2012 value is 63%
21% of the respondents in this poll had an income greater than $100,000 with 17% refusing to answer. The 2010 census had a median *household* income of $56,000. The poll had an median *individual* income of greater than $60,000.
Gallup has Republican party id as 27% over the past couple months. This poll has 35%.
And so on…
Ask a biased sample and get biased results… sad.
If we can delay the oil sands pipeline there is a good chance that a large part of the fossil fuel will be left in the ground. Factors that decrease the chance that the carbon will be left in the ground include:
1. Decreasing cost of natural gas and renewable energy, energy sources that have much less negative effect on local environments and climate change. Oil sands are now much less attractive economically that they were a few years ago even if we don't consider the costs of climate change.
2. A carbon tax will weigh heavily against mining the tar sands.
3. As the economic, social and ecological costs of climate change become higher and more broadly recognized, there will be strong movements in the US, Canada and elsewhere to limit the worse fossil fuels, expecially coal and tar sands, as we transition away from all fossil fuels.
We are in a race against time. In this race we need to reduce and delay fossil fuel burning and to support paths that lead to much lower CO2 emissions.
Stoping KeystoneXL dramatically slows the devastation taking place where the third larges water shed in world is being polluted and leading to cancers 10 times higher for First Nations people downsteam. We now all live downstream. Lakes 50 miles away filling with carcenogens from extraction air pollution. China has just announced a national standard on par with Europe where the Sulfur and manganese has to be reduced and thus per my resources they do not want it. Just another threat and the Tar sands will not be economical once the costs are added to be paid by taxpayers. It simply needs to and will stay in the ground.
With the 35 plus spill and as Kalamazoo MI coverup shows it simply is impossible to clean up from any moving water source. Leak detection show faulty and inadaquate with holes in pipe where it is made by foreign company being sued for faulty pipe. B.Columbia people and govenment have said no to pipe to their coast. Chilren across Canada hve vowed to use thier bodies to stop pipe. Truks not a way to expand as fast as industry needs to to be worth it and agree if pipe not built it stays in ground. Glut of nat. gas predicted very soon. Pipe not needed.
Again, China is saying NO. But they are listening to their people and spending 753 billion on alternatives. Where something is built there which would be mandatory for refining the companies are going beyond the standards now as people have taken to the streets over using their skies as open sewer and chemicals being dumped in their water. We have China make many of our products and thus help pollute their air that is unbreathable so the national standard will again rule out KeystoneXL or export by any method. With carbon monoxide hundreds of times more likely to bond with ones hemoglobin than oxygen the people around the world and especially China say they are saturated and demanding better alternatives to the Tar sannds that is toxic, burns more dirty, takes huge amount of gas to extract it and has proven unsafe from start to finish which is in the lungs of children and us all. Simply not needed or wanted.
meant to say the poll has a 73% white-non-hispanic breakdown.
Saw this earlier. Not surprised in the slightest that the API poll is a joke. Shame it keeps getting touted on news agencies and whatnot.
Your findings do suggest the population has been selected somehow.
But the survey results assure us that participants in the telephone survey were chosen by "random digit dial."
Maxwell's Demon must have been working overtime.
Well, the random digit dial is already a biased sample because it legally cannot include cell phones. The cell-phone-only population has a known "liberal" bias. Reputable pollsters have ways of partially correcting for this, but I doubt this one did…
It is important to call what comes out of the Tar Sands diluted bitumen, or dilbit, because that is what it is!
It is not "oil". It is not " crude oil".
It is bitumen disolved in solvents and it behaves very differently from oils, eg:
-when spilled in water, the solvents volatilize and the bitumen sinks to the bottom. This is why the Kalamazoo River spill is not, and may never be, cleaned up.
-Dilbit is highly corrosive. This leads to more frequent pipeline failures.
-Dilbit requires additional refining at the other end of the pipeline, which has additional carbon cost.
Please, call diluted bitumen dilbit. Not only is this correct, it also is a great opening for a teachable moment!
Of course, the Sierra Club and other environmental organizations would never release a one-sided poll to support their point of view.
It is poor quality, or simply unethical, surveys like this that give all social scientists and statisticians a bad name, ME
We have enough nuclear weapons to destroy the world many times over, and if we eliminate 10% by treaty, it's essentially irrelevant. We have enough global carbon sources to destroy the climate many times over, and if we block Keystone, we will still have more than enough to destroy the climate many times over. For real security in both cases, almost complete disarmament is required. Anything less is wishful thinking.
We've been fighting the war on drugs for forty years. As long as there are addicts, there are pushers to supply them. But, let's focus on the pushers, rather than look in the mirror at the real problem.
Your willful ignorance of the coming climate catastrophes even if we develop not one new source of fossil fuels makes everything you say irrelevant.
Wow, great point and metaphor!
The subject of the third question, which refers to additional proposals to bring in tar sands oil to the US, deserves more publicity. The Canadian company Enbridge has proposals that would create more capacity than Keystone if they were all approved. Things seem to be moving to get tar sands oil to Portland, Maine. See http://sierraclub.typepad.com/compass/2012/09/enbridge-tar-sands-pipeline-would-be-bigger-than-keystone-xl.html
'The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.'
Joke poll-joke MSM. Bad jokes.
There are (by direct inference) liars, bad liars, and statisticians.
Since posting that, I have realized it could be misunderstood. To clarify: most social scientists and statisticians do careful and unbiased work. Surveys like the API one can cast doubt on the whole genre in the minds of some people which is unwarranted and not fair to the vast majority of us, ME
Superman1, are you now saying there is a modicum of hope? A sliver of a chance? A delta for an epsilon? Underwear made of lead with which to forestall Kryptonite's most calamitous consequences?
Touché, Merrelyn.
Given the uncertainties in this game, there's always a glimmer of hope. But, any glimmer of hope also requires substantive action sooner rather than later. On the con side, in the last year, the CO2 emissions and concentrations have increased as usual, when at least one should have started coming down. One the pro side, we had a rally last week. So, the only metric that counts went negative, as it has for decades. I see no credible plan to turn that around; only rallies and platitudes.
When will we take it?
Perhaps we already have, and just cannot yet see it. Or perhaps not.
I found the most interesting thing at the end of the survey:
Which of the following best describes where you live?
Total – Base 1,001
Urban 16%
Suburban 40%
Rural 41%
BUT According to the US Census, over 80% of Americans live in Urban areas. Some people in these areas may consider themselves Suburban, but still – it seems they avoided calling city dwellers who make up the majority of the population!

Screening Under Age 40
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
What can you tell me about testing for breast cancer under the age of 40?
Carolyn Vachani RN, MSN, AOCN, OncoLink's Nurse Educator, responds:
Many women are now getting baseline mammograms at age 35, then another at 40 years old to start the annual ritual. At that age, the breast tissue is very dense, making it difficult for the radiologist to interpret. The younger the woman, the more dense the tissue. Many of these women will get called back for extra pictures because of this difficulty, and because typically there are no prior pictures with which to compare. Other tests that are used in young women if something is suspected are breast MRIs and ultrasound, but these are not typically used for screening. Screening in young women should also include breast self-exam and an annual breast exam by a healthcare provider.
It is also important to remember that about 10% of women (all ages) will be called back to have repeat mammograms or ultrasound to clarify something seen on the first test. This number is higher in younger women (particularly those below 40) and those having their first mammogram (at any age). This is because the density of the breast tissue and the lack of a previous film to compare to make it more difficult for the radiologist to read, as stated earlier. Of the 10% of women who return for a repeat mammogram, only 8-10% of them will need a biopsy, and about 80% of all breast biopsies turn out to be benign. Essentially, only approximately 3 out of every 1000 mammograms lead to a cancer diagnosis.

Groton - The newly elected president of the Poquonnock Bridge Fire District Board Thursday said he believes the board will try to run the district on the $3.5 million budget voters approved rather than ask taxpayers for more money.
Alan Ackley, who becomes board president July 1, said firefighter layoffs are not inevitable and not what the board wants, but could possibly happen.
"Our intention is not to go back to the public," he said. "The public said, 'This is what we want to give you.'"
The budget approved at the district's annual meeting May 16 was about half of what the board sought and not enough to cover salaries and benefits, board members said.
While the new board does not take office until July 1, some decisions are expected, Ackley said.
He said that "going to a partial volunteer company is an absolute," that the board will dismantle the fire box alarm system on the street, that it will seek union concessions and will stop paying overtime.
He said the board may also consider limiting firefighter response to some emergency medical calls and may look into buying a combination pumper and ladder truck rather than a pumper truck. The ladder truck at Poquonnock Bridge has been out of service for months and the district has been relying on mutual aid.
The district board had sought approval of a $6.29 million budget for the coming year to pay its bills, but taxpayers voted it down. Voters then elected a new district board with six incumbent members, including Ackley, and three new ones.
The existing fire district board had a meeting scheduled Thursday but canceled it due to lack of a quorum. Ackley said he hopes to schedule a special meeting of the newly elected board within the next two weeks. The board would then also meet on its regularly scheduled second Thursday of the month.
Meanwhile, a special meeting of the Poquonnock Bridge Volunteer Fire Co. No. 1 Inc., which owns the Fort Hill Station and leases it to the fire district, was called Thursday at Groton Public Library. The meeting was advertised as being needed to elect administrative officers and restore the volunteer company.
John Parfitt Jr., the current vice president of the company's executive board, said he didn't know why it was called but said it violated bylaws, and he adjourned it in two minutes.
Parfitt said he opposes reliance on volunteers because he believes it would undermine public safety if not done properly. He added that he does not want it done at the expense of career firefighters.
Board President Ed Welch said the district would need time, training and money to rebuild a volunteer force, and he doesn't know where the money would come from.
"The way they're going about it is all wrong," he said. The volunteer company will hold its next meeting at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday at the Fort Hill Station.
Ackley said he believes volunteers would help the situation.
"If 70 percent of this country is protected by volunteers, then there's no reason why we in our district can't have the same kind of situation that would help out the taxpayers," Ackley said.
Under the $3.5 million budget, the tax rate in Poquonnock Bridge would fall from 5.9 mills to about 5 mills, board members said. Groton has nine independent fire districts, and Poquonnock Bridge has the highest tax rate of the nine.
"When you talk to the average person on the street and they find out what they're paying, they think that something needs to be done to bring the cost down," member Ronald Yuhas said. "We don't want any safety issues, but the cost has to come down, and the taxpayers did vote that way at the meeting."

2014 midterm elections: keeping "Will Hillary Run?" off the front pages
(until wednesday). Yes, it's election day in the USA on Tuesday 4th November, with a projected cost of $3.67 billion. "During this midterm election year, all 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives and 33 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate will be contested; along with 38 state and territorial governorships, 46 state legislatures (except Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey and Virginia), four territorial legislatures and numerous state and local races." The betting markets currently have the Republicans significant favorites to take the Senate and overwhelming favorites to take the House.

"October is a fine and dangerous season in America"
Happy Political Clusterf*ck Day (U.S.)! In one corner: the first federal government shutdown since 1996, born of the House GOP/Tea Party faction's crusade to delay, defund, and destroy Obamacare (and the Democratic Senate and President's resolve to not do that). "Continuing resolutions" have ping-ponged between the two houses, fighting over language to cancel healthcare reform (plus a few other items, such as the implementation of Mitt Romney's entire economic agenda). National parks are closed, contractors are hamstrung, and 800,000 federal workers furloughed until Speaker Boehner drops the "Hastert Rule" and passes a bill the other branches can agree to. In the other corner, heedless of the chaos (though not without glitches of its own): the official rollout of the Affordable Care Act and its state insurance exchanges. The portal at Healthcare.gov is your one-stop shop for browsing, comparing, and purchasing standardized, regulated insurance coverage with premium rebates, guaranteed coverage, and expanded Medicaid for the poor (in some states). A crazy day, overall -- but peanuts compared to what might happen if the debt ceiling is breached in 16 days. [more inside]

Pencils down.
It's Election Day in America, and as is so often the case in this fickle land, the results of the 2010 midterm elections are up in the air. Although President Obama's party is expected to suffer significant losses, record numbers of districts remain competitive, and even minute errors in polling could mean the difference between a historic Republican landslide and an unexpectedly robust Democratic defense. At stake are control of not just the Senate and House, but myriad state and local offices, many of which will play key roles in the dynamics of the 2012 presidential race -- and, more subtly but no less crucially, the once-in-a-decade congressional redistricting process. Much uncertainty surrounds the behavior of the electorate -- how many will turn out, and how informed will they be?

Opencongress.org is a website for keeping track of the U.S. Congress. (previously) But, now it also a social network. So, sign-up and see what your favourite Senator has been doing, track bills and, follow important issues. Then, share that information with your friends or write about it on your blog.
Foley was a Republican, but those Dems are TELEMARKETERS!
Abu Gharib? Feh. The newest Dark Side: telemarketing abuse. The National Republican Congressional Committee has launched a $2.1 million campaign calling individuals, including those on the Federal Do-Not-Call Registry, with automated telephone messages scripted to sound as if they are coming from the Democratic candidate up for election, in the hopes of driving away support come Tuesday's elections. "Hello. I'm calling with information about [Democratic candidate]," the recording begins, and then pauses for the traditional hang-up. If the recipient does indeed hang up, they then receive repeated phone calls back. This manner of scripting violates 47 CFR 64.1200(b)(1), which requires that "the identity of the business, individual, or other entity that is responsible for initiating the call" be "state[d] clearly" "at the beginning of the message." The New Hampshire Attorney General got them to stop calling those on the Do-Not-Call Registry, at least. (In their best interests, perhaps, due to the $5,000 fine per call potentially racking up hefty fines.) This is going on at the very least in the Pennsylvania 6th, the Connecticut 4th, the North Carolina 11th,, the New Hampshire 2nd, and nationwide.
Handicapping the midterms
As in the 2004 elections, several useful sites have sprung up to keep track of the 2006 midterms for House, Senate and state gubernatorial races. Some have a political point of view, others don't, but they don't differ significantly on the outcome at this point. One of the veterans in this game is ElectionProjection.com, which was pretty close to actual results in '04. (A creation of "the Blogging Caesar"). From the right, there's MyElectionAnalysis.com, while ElectionPredictions seems to come from a neutral corner. All of these track statewide polls as they are published; they may differ in how they weight results. For a more subjective approach, see Larry Sabato's Crystal Ball or the Cook Political Report. Overall, the consensus seems to be that the GOP will hold both houses, but with slimmer margins, and lose on the gubernatorial front.
House likely to approve homeland security bill that erodes labor protections
House likely to approve homeland security bill that erodes labor protections "But the Senate, which likely takes up the matter next week, so far has pursued a much different course. On Thursday, the Democratic-led Senate Governmental Affairs Committee crafted legislation that would protect all current civil service protections and make it more difficult for the president to move workers out of unions. Bush and other Republicans said the measure would give the president less authority than he has now."
The House seems to be so much more conservative and extremist than the Senate. Heck they're still working on trying to ban selected types of abortion procedures even when there's a strong chance it won't pass constitutional muster and the Senate isn't likely to support them.
Is it your perception that the House is more conservative? If so, why do you think that's true?

Congress agrees, citizens shouldn't have the same right to bankruptcy protection as corporations.
Congress agrees, citizens shouldn't have the same right to bankruptcy protection as corporations. The Senate and House, after much lobbying by credit card companies, have decided that consumers don't need protection. Corporations can still file for bankruptcy, leaving stockholders and employees standing in the rain, but Joe Consumer had better not get sick, lose his job, or not pay that usurious 25% interest rate. This is the same bill that Clinton vetoed as being unfair to consumers...but we all know where this regime's loyalties lie...and it ain't the people.
History repeats itself?
History repeats itself? Lest we forget, constitutional qualms about the Pledge helped bring down Mike Dukakis 14 years ago ... will the Democrats, in an urge to avoid the same fate, let through Bush's slate of conservative nominees? How about a new Justice if Rehnquist retires?

Almost 100 people donated at the April Blood Drive in St. James at the Presbyterian Church. Volunteers wanted to thank everyone who gave the gift of life on Monday and Tuesday, and have set a challenge for St. James to have 125 donors at the next event.
The process of giving blood takes an average of eight minutes – depending on how much water a donor has drunk throughout the day and the size of the vein. One unit of blood is about 450 ml, or just under a pint and can save up to three lives.
After donation, donors can enjoy cookies made by the Eagles Ladies and snacks donated by the Keebler company. All donors are also given fluid to rehydrate.
Also taking place in the April blood drive was double red cell donation. According to the Red Cross website, "double red cell donation is similar to a whole blood donation, except a special machine is used to allow you to safely donate two units of red blood cells during one donation while returning your plasma and platelets to you."
Red blood cells are the most frequently used component of blood and are therefore some of the most important components of blood. Almost every transfusion taking place uses red blood cells. Double red cell donation allows for twice the amount of red blood cells to be removed as compared to normal donation, and only takes about twenty minutes longer.
Double red cell donors can give blood every four months. People who donate blood through the double red cell machine get all of the liquid of their blood returned to them, which makes them feel a bit more hydrated after giving. Ask about double red cell donation the next time you donate!
The blood mobile will return to St. James on July 8 and July 9 (Monday and Tuesday). Start planning to be hydrated and well-fed today, so you can save a life tomorrow.

|Check-in before
This was a very nice stay in a flat with everything, you need.
Got this for a great price. Not amazing looking but a nice place for three young guys who just want to snowboard with the odd night out. Had everything we needed. Oven, hob, cutlery, shower, sofa beds, balcony and the place was nice and warm. These apartments are located above clubs and bars so expect to hear music and crowd noise starting around 11, possibly depends where you are situated in the building . Perhaps not suitable for a family.
First time in the St Moritz - we skiing in various places and now we were here.
This is a very nice place. We have a very good weather firstly for 10 years!
fantastic location, beautiful Old Prague apartment. big and spacious: pity there's only one bathroom and the WC is truly small and uncomfortable. characteristic furniture although sometimes broken. very efficient reception with nice people welcoming and helping you. we stayed in 5 adults.
Very nice flat in a good location. Perfect service.
I went with my girlfriend, my parents and my dog. We all really loved the stay! The house is renewed, and everything was like shown in the pictures. It's well placed and the city is lovely. I really recommend.
Everything was great :) Can only recommend it.
Great location within 5-10 minutes walk to east croydon.Good walking distance to the shopping centre in Croydon. Apartment better then expected. Fully equipped, good heating. Had some problems connecting to the WiFi and to get hot water in the kitchen and sink I the bathroom, other then that,fully satisfied.
a nice place to visit
Nice flat with everything you need when travelling with family. The house is located close to the sea in a calm and charming little street. Bus stop is a couple of minutes. A great base to discover The Hague and basically the whole country. Our host was really helpful and friendly. I would return any time!

Build-A-Bear Workshop Chain Is Said to Seek Buyer
Build-A-Bear Workshop Inc., the chain of make-your-own stuffed animal stores, is seeking a buyer and has approached private-equity firms, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.
Barclays Capital is advising the company, said two of the people, who declined to be identified because the matter is private. The St. Louis-based retailer had a market value of about $117 million as of yesterday's close.
Sales at Build-A-Bear, which operates more than 400 stores, peaked at $474.4 million in 2007 before the recession sapped consumer demand for toys. By last year, sales had dropped to $394.4 million. To spur growth, Build-A-Bear is offering its stuffed animal kits at arts-and-crafts chain Michaels Stores Inc. and bookseller Borders Group Inc.
Spokesperson Shannon Lammert of Build-A-Bear declined to comment.
The shares rose $1.95, or 33 percent, to $7.91 at 4 p.m. in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. Before today, the shares had risen 22 percent this year.
Maxine Clark, who refers to herself as "chief executive bear" on the company's website, opened the first store in 1997. The company became a staple at U.S. malls and expanded to other continents, including stores in Cape Town, Dubai and Tokyo.
Private-equity firms are venturing back to retail as consumer spending shows signs of recovering. Twenty-six retail and restaurant deals have been announced this year, compared with 21 during the previous year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

text: hi, i'm thursday this is a team i made it's not particularly good nor do i play it that well but i've had a lot of fun with it in recent weeks. i never hit a decent rank with this team partially out of laziness but partially out of my ineptitude and a whole host of bad luck thrust upon me. that being said, this is probably my favorite team from the b2w2 era and i'd like to improve it in the hopes that maybe i could do better with it than i am now. i know i'm weak to a myriad of threats so if someone could help me mitigate these weaknesses, that would be great also, i don't know if these descriptions are too short. i haven't made one of these in so long! anyways: Tornadus (Tornadus-T) (M) @ Damp Rock Trait: Regenerator EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Hurricane - Focus Blast - U-turn - Rain Dance i rarely ever lead with this guy but this is where my team begins. tornadus-t is probably my favorite member of this team primarily because he's so fast and so useful! anyways, i generally play rather recklessly with this guy if kingdra's not going to do anything: he's very good for a fast but weak u-turn, and i love spamming hurricanes which do a lot even though they aren't boosted by choice specs. my plan with this team is really simple: since my opponent usually doesn't think twice about sacrificing their weather inducer, i usually focus on eliminating it then bringing in tornadus-t to rain dance, at which point kingdra can usually finish off my opponent. i'm genuinely surprised when my opponent doesn't expect me to do this, since imo torn-t and kingdra would only portend some sort of rain team. the moveset is really self-explanatory. hurricane is flying stab which is too good to pass up, focus blast hits steels and tyranitar (mostly tyranitar), and u-turn is to scout and help me build up hazard damage. rain dance is the crux of this set: tornadus-t works very well in conjunction with kingdra in helping me eliminate most of my opponent's team simply because it's my weather inducer. but, in addition to being a weather inducer, i think it's important to remember how hard tornadus-t hits, even though its attacks aren't boosted by life orb or choice specs. with hazards up (which i can usually manage to do fairly easily), tornadus is my secondary cleaner. that being said, there have been situations in which my cloudbutt hasn't been able to set up rain quickly enough, and i've been considering using torno-i to remedy that. thoughts? Gliscor (F) @ Toxic Orb Trait: Poison Heal EVs: 252 HP / 176 Def / 80 Spd Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Taunt - U-turn generic gliscor yeah!!!! Anyways, Gliscor is the mon that I use to set up rocks and he's very good at it. If my opponent has a Tyranitar, Gliscor is my lead ~70% of the time because Tyranitar is really just a free ticket to set up my first layer of hazards. I don't really know what to say about Gliscor, other than the fact that he's a "glue" of sorts – that is to say that he patches up what would otherwise be huge weaknesses from physical threats such as Terrakion. Although it seems strange, I really like the combination of Taunt / U-Turn on Gliscor, as it fits my team well; Taunt prevents Ferrothorn and Skarmory from setting up hazards (with three choiced mons, I do a lot of switching), while U-turn helps me build up more damage and maintain momentum. I will not deny that I don't play this team very well, and I guess that's part of why I'm not doing as well as I possibly could with it. There are rare occasions in which I wish that I had a different move in place of one of the other moves (meaning: not Earthquake), and I kind of wish that I had a better way to deal with Dragonite, so recently, I've been contemplating putting Ice Fang over U-turn. Although that's far from the best way to deal with Dragonite, I think it would be a step in the right direction. Heatran (F) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Flash Fire EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Fire Blast - Earth Power - Hidden Power [Grass] - Dragon Pulse Putting a Heatran on a Rain(ish) team might seem kind of counterproductive, but I think it's important to realize that with Tornadus-T using Rain Dance, rain will only be up for eight turns – I think it's important to be able to adapt to situations well in case your game plan goes down the shitter. That being said, Heatran's the other part of my 'glue' which in this scenario deals with Sun teams adequately - between Tran and Latias, I'm usually more than capable of holding my own against the throes that mons such as Venusaur and Volcarona sometimes cause. Heatran with a scarf is my revenge killer and does its job well. I can usually dispatch CB Dragonite with this guy. He's also my emergency button for Lucario (lol) and he really stomps on a lot more things than you'd expect with his lovely STAB Fire Blast. He covers most things that would otherwise trouble me with Earth Power, and Dragon Pulse hits Latios rather hard, who's otherwise a veritable scourge to this team. HP [Grass] is admittedly just slapped on there for the odd Gastrodon in the event that I need to kill it so that I can keep spamming Hydro Pump on Kingdra. Well, optimistically, this guy works. In reality, I admittedly have some apprehensions about Heatran. I formerly had SD Rock Gem Terrakion in this slot which provided significantly more firepower, but now I find that I have more cushioning against random Dragon mons. Heatran's just my Dragon move sponge, and I've been considering replacing him with either Starmie (which could also Rain Dance) or a spinblocker of some sort, specifically Gengar or Jellicent. If anyone has thoughts on this, I'd love to hear them. edit: oh wow i forgot to mention the most general reason that I put Heatran here: it's a generic Genesect switchin. Latias (F) @ Choice Specs Trait: Levitate EVs: 4 Def / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Draco Meteor - Hidden Power [Fire] - Trick - Psyshock this guy is a piece of shit no, i'm just kidding, latias covers rain pretty well. specs latias is a little dumb, but i'd suggest using it before bashing it: trick is really fun to use (to be honest, that's the only reason why i use this set: i'm also kind of afraid of reuniclus). using latios might be the better option, but latias has more natural bulk and to be honest that's what i was looking for when i made the team. this fucking planebird thing covers random fighting mons that are slower than it and punches holes into things that might otherwise be annoying for some mons on my team to pick apart. if i see a ferrothorn on the opponent's team or if they're running a stall team, i trick as soon as possible. i usually catch the chansey/blissey/ferrothorn off guard, which is really nice! after that i don't have much of a gameplan though so i'm usually disconsolate about that. also, i've noticed that 0/4/0 investment is hardly sufficient to tank anything so i've been strongly considering using a bulkier spread, sacrificing some firepower for more longevity. also hp fire is dumb so i think i'm going to go for surf because it helps with heatran though i have very few issues with tran to be honest. either that or dragon pulse. latias is cool. Skarmory (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Sturdy EVs: 248 HP / 216 SDef / 44 Spd Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk) - Spikes - Whirlwind - Taunt - Roost sdef skram!!!!! i adore this thing like i never have any other pokemon. never have i come across a mon who can lay spikes as easily as this one. you may notice something strange: i don't have any attacking moves. this isn't new by any means, and sometimes when i'm fighting the odd espeon or xatu i end up feeling angry with myself. however, taunt is the crux of this set: i can only imagine the looks on my opponent's face when i click taunt to stop his skarm or whatever from setting up hazards. other than that, i think it's really self-evident what skarm is supposed to do: lay down spikes, occasionally shut down my opponent when he's reliant on non-damaging moves, and heal himself so he can do it as often as necessary. what makes me really like this set is the heavy sdef investment. with it, my giant tin can bird can pretty comfortably sponge attacks from the lati twins and sometimes people run hydreigon under rain and he takes that a lot better than you'd expect. i'm always afraid of genesect (fuk gene), but skarm is kind of good at taking hits from him considering that he laughs at u-turn and shrugs off ice beams. i'm always cautious around gene though because i really don't like eating fts which do enough that i can't come in again! just a note: i run far more speed than necessary, but i've always liked a little speed on skarmory so i can have the faster whirlwind. 44 speed is excessive, but i'm paranoid about really fast jellicent for some asinine reason. i don't really need to invest it in anything else, but i've contemplated dropping it down to ~16 spd / rest in def. it doesn't matter all that much, i don't find. i'd really like to squeeze in an attack, but i find that all of my moves are pretty crucial to skarm's success! what woe i suffer. Kingdra (F) @ Choice Specs Trait: Swift Swim EVs: 4 Def / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Draco Meteor - Hydro Pump - Dragon Pulse - Hidden Power [Fire] the big bang, the pootie tang. i've never used kingdra successfully prior to creating this team. something needs to be said for the sheer amount of teams that i've ravaged with this guy. specs hydro pump in the rain shaves a good chunk off of everything not named chansey, really; ferrothorn doesn't have reliable recovery and sometimes with hazards i can hit it, then hit it again and watch it die. with sr, rain, and even one layer of spikes up, the number of things that can withstand kingdra's assault is extremely small, and kingdra easily outpaces everything under the sun (well, rain) so there's nothing to really worry about aside from stuff like tentacruel and gastrodon which latias can usually eat up sufficiently anyways. i've seldom had to send kingdra in early, and if i do, it's always because i see a quick opportunity to kill something which i'll take even if it's outside of rain – 316 special attack is very close to latias', meaning that i have little trouble dispatching an errant mon with a dragon pulse or something. it's worth noting that 85-95% of the time i'm clicking hydro pump on kingdra endgame and that everything else borders on filler except maybe dragon pulse lol hp [fire] is stupid, so i'm contemplating replacing it for surf or signal beam. celebi takes a massive amount from pumps though so signal beam is probably unnecessary. surf? surf. this team was built around this guy, and if it came down to it i'd say it's the kingpin, but when building around kingdra, i hardly wanted it to be my only win condition. i'd say that all of the other members of my team either contribute to the end goal [most often kingdra's sweep] or are capable of executing a pseudo-sweep on their own. that being said, i generally don't win when kingdra dies early game. it's definitely the most salient threat on this team with rain support (and if my opponent carries rain, that's serendipitous – it makes my life far easier!), and without it my morale kind of drops. that being said, between the other five members of the team, i can occasionally eke out a victory. thank you for reading. i sincerely hope you enjoyed.

On some of the consequences of being possible to call early elections
This note presents some of the consequences due to the possibility of having early elections. First of all, elections, whether exogenously or endogenously determined, are relevant to challenge the well known neutrality principle of economic policies under rational expectations. Furthermore, in the particular case of being possible to admit early elections, the electoral advantages of right-wing parties in relation to left-wing parties suffer a diminishment.

|Re: [apacheds] Adding an entry without objectClass
|Wed, 20 Jul 2005 16:48:37 GMT
"Top" objectClass is needed by propbably all entries (I don't remember if there are others top level object classes), but it's not sufficient because it's an abstract object class. You don't need to put this attribute but all your entries need an ocjectClass attribute with a structural or auxiliary object class.

Connor Grabowski-Cracchiolo, the 11-year-old boy last seen on Aug. 27 and believed to have been kidnapped by his father, has been found by the FBI and is in FBI custody, according to the Facebook page of the boyĺs mother, Kelly Cracchiolo-Evans.
ôConnor has been found!!! FBI has him in their custody. They are not in MI. My boy will be back! YESSSSSSSSS!,ö is the quote that was posted on Cracchiolo-Evans Facebook page at about 12:30 p.m. Friday afternoon.
About 20 minutes later Cracchiolo-Evans confirmed she had a brief conversation with an FBI agent informing her that her son was with the proper authorities and that Mark Grabowski, Connorĺs father, was also in custody.
ôI donĺt even know a word that could describe how happy I am,ö she said.
Cracchiolo-Evans said she wasnĺt informed what state her son and his father were found in or whether or not she would be picking him up out of state of if he would be back to her.
ôIĺll walk to him if I have to though,ö she said.
Authorities suspected Connor Grabowski-Cracchiolo had been kidnapped by his biological father, former Detroit Lions player Mark Joseph Grabowski, sometime at the end of August. He was reported missing by his mother, Cracchiolo-Evans.
Cracchiolo-Evans and Grabowski have shared custody of Connor, whose mother said the custody arrangement calls for the boy to spend much of his summer with his father and the school year with her. Cracchiolo-Evans was making arrangements to have Connor returned to her custody for the school year when she discovered Grabowskiĺs home had been abandoned and his cellphone disconnected.
Earlier today a YouTube video titled ôConnor Grabowski NOT KIDNAPPED, IĺM FREE,ö appeared online. In it, Connor, a fifth-grade student at Richmond Middle School, states he is ôout hereö with his father though no geographic location is identified.
In the video, shot at a dining table inside a dwelling, the boy states he asked his father, former Detroit Lions prospect Mark Grabowski, to take him away as a ôbirthday present.ö
ôI am fine, I was not kidnapped, I came on my own will,ö Connor said at the beginning of the 2:38 minute video.
Cracchiolo-Evans said she knew of the video but refused to watch it after hearing how unhappy her son looked and what he was saying.
ôIĺll never watch it,ö she said. ôWhat choice did he have but to say those things. That amount of stress he was under, I donĺt want to see that.ö

"Lowestoft, a fishing town on the East Coast" Top 5 Page for this destination Lowestoft by Mickyk
Lowestoft Travel Guide: 24 reviews and 78 photos
This is the place where we made our landfall when we crossed the North Sea from Holland.
It is a nice place on first sight, but when you scratch away some of the varnish (read, walk further than the harbour and the first set of houses) you see that there some poverty around here.
On the other hand, when you make a visit and stay around the beach area it is quete nice.
Nice bathrooms and an old era feel about it.
Can have a tea and a chat here if you are into sailing. A bit posh though.
Like you see on this picture there is always the good old Fish and Chips shop nearby.
Tuck in!!
- Pros:Good beach, if a bit cold water.
- Cons:Not very prosperous
- In a nutshell:Typical English seaside resort
Reviews (2)
Like most British seaside resorts / towns Lowestoft has a Pier where you can eat fish and chips, gamble your money away... more travel advice
Along the beach there is a boulevard where you can have a nice stroll. The beach itself is clean and it is not that... more travel advice

How to make your own natural insect repellent
Easy and inexpensive tricks from 'The Godmother of Green' Annie Bond
Easy and inexpensive tricks from 'The Godmother of Green' Annie Bond
Rosie: When is someone going to realize that there is NO WAY that Clinton could have had her own server in her home without the approval of the Sate Departments IT Security people? It CAN'T happen. Let's get ONE reporter out there to do their due diligence in investigating this. As a former Defense Dept. contractor employee, I know something about this. If anyone of us (and it did happen to me two times) were, however innocently (as in my case), part of a classified chain of emails, that would have impacted the company's security, IT security would have been at our desks faster than a NY minute. You would then have been sent to your boss and given a warning (even though you were neither the instigator nor the recipient of this email traffic). AND, just because Mrs. Clinton, was Secretary of State, IT security should NEVER have approved it. So, let's put the blame on them, not on our future POTUS.
