Madison, Wisconsin has become the new ground zero in the fight for the soul of our country. As Mark Twain reminds me on my screen saver each day, the difference between the right word and the almost right word is "the difference between lightning and a lightning bug." What word would best describe the bizarre new mindset of that very narrow majority of voters in the 2010 mid-term elections who are lining up to the right of George Will and Ron Paul? I have tried, but it seems you can't spit out "Tea Baggers" with the same vehemence and spite as "liberal" in the currently vogue, yelling matches that pass for our country's political debate. We, the people, need a lightning bolt to even the playing field. Liberal in the dictionary is defined as: 1. Favoring individual freedom and nonrevolutionary reform. 2. Broad minded or tolerant. 3. Generous. How can Beck, Limbaugh, and Coulter make that simple, well-meaning word evoke images of a horned devil pitchforking a litter of Golden Retriever puppies? It would be easy to blame it on plain ignorance, bigotry, 9/11, a bad economy, and the Fox Network, but the real culprit is a convenient apathy on the part of more than one in every two of us who don't take the time to vote. Nothing in a sustainable, working democracy is as wasteful or dangerous as an uncast ballot. The truth why many of us don't feel voting is important is the 50 year old, coordinated propaganda campaign from groups like Focus on the Family, the Enterprise Institute, and the Republican National Committee, that have insisted: all politicians are untrustworthy, greedy, and incompetent; while our candidates are somewhat less so. The real message is: it doesn't really matter if you vote or not, because it doesn't really matter who wins. Having run political campaigns for forty years, I have spent a lot of time and resources on getting the right people not to vote. I apologize, and it won't ever happen again. Our country and the high ideals it was founded on are being played like a patsy by those who stand to make the most money, or gain the most power, off our inability to focus on our government's real purpose for existing. Government is meant to protect and defend its people. We, the people, need to rally around a term to describe the champions of this new fringe of the far, far wrong. Let's create some meaningful push-back to protect our country's working class from the end game of unethical, uncontrolled corporate influence peddling that is presently bolstering the Republican Party. The Conservative course of action is obvious, create public policy that insures the continued profits of its high-rolling political donors. The train wreck on the horizon for our brave experiment in representative democracy is the billions of corporate campaign dollars that are now, and will, in the near future, open like a flood gate. While citizens are strictly limited in the amount and timing of their political donations, no such limits are currently placed on business/corporate special interest groups. They can spend what it takes in pre-profit dollars to make things the way they want them. Changing our nation's government for their own specific corporate interests is now a legitimate business expense. This change in campaign funding laws, brought on by a party-line Supreme Court decision last year, will give every narrow-minded and intolerant wing nut, with a divisive wedge-issue agenda, a well funded podium to stand on and to broadcast from. Before we fade into a nation defined by those we love to hate, we need to give the other five billion human beings on our planet a relevant term to describe and understand the ongoing battle. My candidate for that moniker is "Fascinista." Fascist is an overused epithet, and would likely get a Jeopardy thumbs up if you answered: "What is a bully?" The dictionary defines Fascism as: a system of government driven by the extreme right. Typically through the merging of state and business leadership, together with a belligerent nationalism. Scholars have trouble tracking the origins of this insidious idealogy, but agree that Hitler, Mussolini, Pinochet, Mubarack, and Kadafi, all chose the cornerstone decisions and confrontational blueprints of Fascist behaviors as their way to gain and hold power. The proven, traditional early warning signs that identify this co-opting and subverting of democratic ideals are: Disdain for Human Rights; Rabid Nationalism; Identifying Enemies as a Cause for Suspending Citizen Rights; Glorification of the Military; Obsession with National Security; Rampant Sexism; Controlling Mass Media; Religion and Government Intertwined; Corporate Profits and Power Protected; Labor Power Suppressed; Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts; Obsession with Crime and Punishment; Fraudulent Elections; Rampant Cronyism and Corruption; And, Concentration of Wealth and Economic Power in a Small Minority. Does this sound familiar? I chose Fascinista because it sounds elitist, frivolous, dangerously foreign, feminine, and there is very little chance any of the "corporation owned bullies" soon to be branded with the term would choose to embrace it. Fascinista sounds like an apt description of a personality who values their own conclusions over all others, exudes the arrogance in polite conversation of a drunken evangelist, is violently confrontational by nature and action, and embraces a four word bumper-sticker solution to every complex problem and human condition. The term was coined by a fashion blogger who captioned a picture of North Korean dictator, and Fascist devotee, Kim Jong-il modeling his latest dapper military pantsuit. The new dictionary entry for Fascinista would picture an open mouthed Sarah Palin in red camo with a matching Uzzi on a Gucci shoulder strap. Our own American brand of Fascinista vigorously believes that: Our country owes its primary reason for existing to the unqualified support of unfettered capitalism and the well being of the multi-national corporations who now dictate the global economy; Workers are to be treated as simply commodities, paid at the lowest possible level for maximum corporate profit, used throughout their working years as an expendable, interchangeable commodity, and then discarded; The nearly century old "safety net" of taxpayer funded and endowed governmental programs for our working class is really an unearned, unnecessary "entitlement" for lazy, freeloading loafers; A high performing, free public education system is an unnecessary and wasteful taxpayer expense that should be privatized; The rearview mirror of business deregulation is how we need to drive our national economy forward; And, finally, that a smaller, hands-off government, focusing on selective right-wing priority interventions, should, for example, exert total control over a woman's reproductive organs, but, would stay out of the way when a psychopath wants to buy an automatic weapon at a gun show. Liberal didn't get to be a hated word in the right wing lexicon overnight. We will have to work hard on outing red-state actions with a fitting label to brand their vocal leaders and their tactics. Governor Walker of Wisconsin and his recent chummy phone call from "Mr. Koch" certainly shows the world where the ultra-wealthy powerbrokers and minions want the right wing and the Republican Party to be when balancing our war and Wall Street induced deficit. Fascinistas are those who believe we don't need to tap the 80% of our country's top 500 corporations who paid zero taxes last year, while Wall Street recorded the second most profitable year in its history. Fascinistas believe that it is also unfair to tax the income of the top 1% of our wealthiest citizens, those who own the corporations, at one-third the rate they were taxed under Ronald Reagan, although their collective net worth went from 4 trillion dollars in 1980 to 44 trillion dollars in 2010. Fascinistas believe human and civil rights are meant only for those who fit into a narrow nationalistic litmus test of economic circumstance, sexual preference, and DNA. Fascinistas are shamelessly convinced that compromise is weakness, compassion is a luxury we can't afford, and might always makes right in dealing with other nations. Is our country destined to be a place where corporations can use propaganda, media manipulation, and scare tactics to control a chronically belligerent and wrong headed segment of our society, simply to preserve their profits? Are we a nation turning towards a policy of reactionary isolationism when the facts of global warming, terrorism, and third world poverty are sliding life on this planet towards a bleak and dangerous future? We should each take the time to make out a top ten list of why we are not now, or ever will be, labeled a Fascinista. If you can't find ten solid reasons why the word doesn't fit you and your daily actions, keep it to yourself, and remember to please stop calling yourself "undecided" when asked your true political affiliation. For those who don't vote? Hey, this is all about your problem to get engaged in the future. Wake up.

Bryson AM station lights up the airwaves again after year-long hiatus
Written by Admin- Swain County eyes federal courthouse
- Tasing threat against 14-year-old mascot investigated by Swain
- Bryson wants to get rid of unsightly signs
- Meet the candidates for Bryson town board
- Putting the pedal — and roots — down in the Smokies

- Another eventful day in Bryson City
The airwaves in Bryson City are active again now that WBHN is back up and running.
The radio station, the only one that calls Swain County home, went off the air about a year ago because of financial problems. Two independent efforts to rescue the station were launched. One spearheaded by Lloyd Brown, pastor of Spruce Grove Baptist Church, resulted in what is now the new Tom Harris Memorial Station.
The name was chosen as a mark of respect for the former pastor of Victory Baptist Church in Bryson City. Before he passed away, Harris had a daily program on WBHN for at least 35 years.
Brown said Tuesday that efforts are under way to secure a license in the new nonprofit's name through the Federal Communications Commission. The radio station is focusing on gospel music, and also will offer some bluegrass and country programming.
The community only had until Sept. 16 to get WBHN back on the air. Otherwise, the FCC would have permanently canceled the license after one-year of being non-operational and the station would have been "dark" permanently.
To listen, tune in to 1590 AM.

Homeolab Arthritis Pain Relief - 90 Chewable Tablets
Homeolab Arthritis Pain Relief is safe and effective. Arthritis Pain Relief helps relieve symptoms associated with arthritis pain, Joint pain, stiffness, inflammation. There is no side effects and no drug interactions.
What is homeopathy?To try and define Homeopathy is not an easy task, but its natural therapeutic approach clearly distinguishes it from traditional medicine and its main characteristics can be pointed out. Homeopathy considers illness as a body reaction to external aggression. It identifies substances, which are flowing with the body's natural energy. The body needs a minimum level of vital energy is essential in order to react. A homeopathic treatment cannot be of any help to a listless body. This capacity to react is absolutely essential in order to reap benefits from homeopathy. considers the patient as a whole, without limiting itself to illness-related symptoms. devises individual treatments according to every patient's personal reactions. Homeopathy takes into account a patient's constitution, heredity and environment, in order to compare and establish relationships between one individual's reactions and those of others who have similar characteristics or symptoms. Tries to restore a patient's disturbed equilibrium through the use of appropriate natural substances. gives primary importance to a patient's own direct information.
THREE PRINCIPLESHomeopathy is based on three important principles, which are:
1. Similitude There should be a connection between illness and remedy. 2. Infinitesimality Homeopathy uses vegetable, mineral and chemically processed mixtures of natural substances, in repeatedly diluted strength to administer minute doses. 3.Totality Since Homeopathy considers a person as a whole, every treatment is based on the assumption that every illness is the apparent manifestation of a much deeper-rooted disorder.
Other Features Other noticeable points that distinguish Homeopathy from conventional medicine are: - 100% natural - 100% safe To Summarize Homeopathy is a form of natural therapy that treats illnesses with minute, and therefore innocuous doses of certain substances, selected according to the patient's own individuality, reactions and heredity, as well as family and social environments.

Martha's Favorite
Rhubarb-Berry Crumbles
Crumble: A British name for a blend of berries or other fruit with a textured sugary topping, often with oats; the result is all but synonymous with a crisp. Our individual servings include rhubarb, strawberries, and raspberries nestled under an oatless blend of butter, brown sugar, flour, salt, and grated orange zest.

Subscribe to Martha Stewart LivingIngredients
- 1 1/2 pounds rhubarb, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices, leaves discarded
- 2 cups raspberries, or sliced strawberries, or a combination
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 2 tablespoons instant tapioca
- 1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest, plus 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- Pinch of salt
- Crumble Topping
- Vanilla yogurt, for serving (optional)
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Stir together rhubarb, berries, sugar, tapioca, orange zest, orange juice, and salt in a bowl. Let stand 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Divide rhubarb mixture among 6 small ceramic baking dishes (1 cup capacity and 5 1/2 inches in diameter). Transfer baking dishes to a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with topping, dividing evenly.
Step 3
Bake until topping turns golden and juices are bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool on sheet on a wire rack 30 minutes. Serve with yogurt, if desired.

This is a favorite dessert. I served it a number of times and each time I get compliments. A friend of my mom's said it was the best dessert ever served at PEO. At book club, a friend said it was the best thing she has ever put in her mouth. I think the recipe should read 1 1/2 cups of rhubarb, not pounds. Also, I cut the sugar in half - I like it a little sour with the sweet crumble on the top. Perfect with vanilla yogurt or ice cream.

Never buy a smart phone. You can't get one without all the crap. If I weren't so lazy, I would figure out how to get rid of Facebook and Twitter from my phone.
Well, I am a simpleton and I figure I have to keep up with SOME technology, lest I be left behind on all of it and spend my time texting the neighborhood kids to get off my lawn long after they have moved onto only twitter/facebooking/IMing each other.
I hate, HATE to admit it, but I'm tempted to get an iPhone when this thing dies. I try to do everything I can to prevent an Apple monopoly, but I have been disappointed in Android. By the time I get my phone updated (a 1hr+ ordeal in itself) they're texting me to update it again. The OS is constantly glitchy and running slow. My wife never experiences this with her iPhone.
I apparently unhooked it from a computer wrong (which I had to borrow, can't update on a Mac and we don't own a PC anymore) and now for a month I've been getting frequent freezing and error messages from the tethering program that won't turn off.

Are you using HTC? If so, switch to another manufacturer.
I have the original Droid from Motorola, and I have never had any of the problems you describe.
Prince of Fatness
Just do what I do and get a cheapo phone. If I need to make a call, I can. I can send a quick text message. What more do you need?
Are you using HTC? If so, switch to another manufacturer. I have the original Droid from Motorola, and I have never had any of the problems you describe.
Samsung Galaxy on AT&T.
Yes, you are correct, I would probably try one more by another maker before I sold my soul to Apple.
I travel a lot for work. They give us blackberries which are good for email and suck for everything else. I really like having internet and some of the features when on the go. Often now I can forego the headache of trying to get my laptop connected remotely (dang work firewalls/security) and have everything I need on mobile devices. With my work iPad soon to be completely hooked up and on our network I'll probably stop lugging the laptop as much.
There is nothing quick about text messaging on a 3-letter-per-button phone, I come from a Razr of many years. I used to not see the point in texting (I said I was a simpleton getting behind on technology) but now that I can text easily I use it a lot with my wife. We can converse back and forth while I'm at work and it does not intrude on me getting things done like a call would...and with the baby etc she's a lot more likely to respond to texts than to be able to pick up the phone.
I have an HTC (my 2nd) and have never had any of the problems described either. Or any problems at all. And I think it's been updated a grand total of once in the 9 months I've owned it. I also don't know why you'd connect a smart phone to a computer unless it was just to charge it. I would give up my laptop or any type of computer way before I'd give up my smartphone at this point.
Runners run.
I also don't know why you'd connect a smart phone to a computer unless it was just to charge it. I would give up my laptop or any type of computer way before I'd give up my smartphone at this point.
In order to do the update, you MUST install a program on your computer (which took forever to download and install), then download the update, then hook up the phone to do the update. Each time. The file size to do the update was large, how large I don't recall.
Looks like I may be looking for an HTC when this thing pukes.
That's goofy. My Android phones get updated over the air. What's the point of building a gazillion dollar data network if you're not gonna use it?
Oh and I may soon be forced against my will to move to AT&T and so I've done a little research. The HTC phones available on AT&T kind of suck. I think the best one they have is probably the Motorola Atrix.
Needs more cowbell!
Heh, and my experience with an HTC was not good...at least not after the 8 month mark when they rolled out the Gingerbread OTA update. My phone was totally fubar'd after that.
I do love my iPhone. I also love that it didn't come pre-loaded with a ton of bloatware that could not be shut down.

Halloween is just a few days away, which means there's still time to scare the bejesus out of someone in your family. Sure, you could try a few strategically placed rubber spiders, but a scary movie would probably do the trick just as well.
Right now, there's an insane number of Halloween and/or scary movies available on Blu-ray. In fact, when we started this list, it was somewhere in the high 40s. However, since some of you probably want to sleep at some point, we whittled the list down to a nice, creepy 13.
We clipped down our selection by only mentioning what's on Blu-ray (no Exorcist?!?) and cutting out the psychos (no Psycho, Silence of the Lambs, or The Shining) and not including too many creatures (so no JAWS or Alien). Some of these titles are good for the kiddies and some are strictly for adults. However, all have some type of special meaning for us when we think of a good old-fashioned fright night.
Did we miss one of your fright-filled favorites? Have something to say about our spooky selections? Sound off in the comments section below. Otherwise, grab yourself a baseball and enjoy our picks for the 13 Best Blu-rays for Halloween.

19991)We have made this page based on the myths and legends of the Argentinian northwest likie: "The Pachamama", "The Ghobling", "The Salamanca" and many others. In this page we have written the most trascendental and known legends and histories, that the citycens of Salta, Jujuy, Santiago del Estro and Tucuman have heard. That means, the provinces that compouse the northwest of our country. In our page you can find from the most exiting legends and histories to the folk songs that make our selves feel identificated by the same way, the photos of the most remarcable places of the city of Salta, place that is our home so we intend to show it all. We used as backgrounds pictures of scenes and characters that the histories are based on. There will be a page of interviews, where people will be asked if they do or not believe in these histories. Our educative propouse is to make know in a fun way, to everyone that enters to our page, our culture by these legends, histories and customes. By other way, to make know our land, wich for us is a hidden treasure , that we want to show, that is the main reason that made ourselves participate in Thinkquest.

Write in your question about this product: AVAILABLE COLORSCUSTOMER REVIEWS6 reviews The quality of the t-shirt was great. However, the sizing was small. I'd say one size off (smaller) The cost, the quality and time was great. It arrived earlier than expected and Angela was so helpful to make that happen. They seem to run a little large, but that is not a bad thing, it would have been good to know for those that say 3X or 4X if they have it, all would have been good with 3X. T shirts look great! Perfect, right on the money. The imprint quality is perfect. I'm very happy. Very happy with service, unbelievable fast turnaround time and product came out looking great! Couldn't be happier!

Jane Goodall, in full Dame Jane Goodall, original name Valerie Jane Morris-Goodall (born April 3, 1934, London, England), British ethologist, known for her exceptionally detailed and long-term research on the chimpanzees of Gombe Stream National Park in Tanzania.
JeekGoodall, who was interested in animal behaviour from an early age, left school at age 18. She worked as a secretary and as a film production assistant until she gained passage to Africa. Once there, Goodall began assisting paleontologist and anthropologist Louis Leakey. Her association with Leakey led eventually to her establishment in June 1960 of a camp in the Gombe Stream Game Reserve (now a national park) so that she could observe the behaviour of chimpanzees in the region. In 1964 she married a Dutch photographer who had been sent in 1962 to Tanzania to film her work (later they divorced). The University of Cambridge in 1965 awarded Goodall a Ph.D. in ethology; she was one of very few candidates to receive a Ph.D. without having first possessed an A.B. degree. Except for short periods of absence, Goodall and her family remained in Gombe until 1975, often directing the fieldwork of other doctoral candidates. In 1977 she cofounded the Jane Goodall Institute for Wildlife Research, Education, and Conservation in California; the centre later moved its headquarters to the Washington, D.C., area.
Osamu Honda/APOver the years Goodall was able to correct a number of misunderstandings about chimpanzees. She found, for example, that the animals are omnivorous, not vegetarian; that they are capable of making and using tools; and, in short, that they have a set of hitherto unrecognized complex and highly developed social behaviours. Goodall wrote a number of books and articles about various aspects of her work, notably In the Shadow of Man (1971). She summarized her years of observation in The Chimpanzees of Gombe: Patterns of Behavior (1986). Goodall continued to write and lecture about environmental and conservation issues into the early 21st century. The recipient of numerous honours, she was created Dame of the British Empire in 2003.

Team Collaboration
Team Collaboration: Overall our group collaborated very well. We divided the work equally among us by one of us doing art and the homepage, one of us doing the fall and legacy, one of us did architecture, one of us did government, and the other one did religion and philosophy and the United Nations page. Overall we all got along really well, even though there were some struggles along the way. In the end, we all solved the issue, put it behind us, and focused on the main task at hand. We sometimes had to trade our flash drives with each other in order to complete some of the work. We all read a little bit of each other's work to make sure we were on track and it all sounded good. We contacted and talked with each other daily and so we made sure the work was getting done, but was still of great quality. So as you can see, our team worked great together and even when we fought, which is typical, we worked it out and accomplished our goal, AN AMAZING WEBSITE!!!!!!
Team Diversity
Diversity in our team played an important role in the creation of our website. Two of our group members are from a Pakistan and are Muslim, two of them are from Israel and are Jewish, and one is from Mexico and is Christian. Even though we had dissimilar backgrounds, we put our differences aside to create our website. Every team member contributed to the project either by applying what they already knew or finding other resources that could help. No matter what the problem was, racism and sexism was not a valid reason for the miscommunication. Different viewpoints of the teammates helped them pick a variety of sources that seemed appealing to them, all of which aided our website in becoming the best it could possibly be. Overall, our variety of nationalities, ideas, and beliefs helped us achieve efficient teamwork.

Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from HeLa cells, transfected with 100 nM SignalSilence® Control siRNA (Unconjugated) #6568 (-), SignalSilence® CREB siRNA I (+) or SignalSilence® CREB siRNA II #6590 (+), using CREB (48H2) Rabbit mAb #9197 and α-Tubulin (11H10) Rabbit mAb #2125. The CREB (48H2) Rabbit mAb antibody confirms silencing of CREB expression and α-Tubulin (11H10) Rabbit mAb is used to control for loading and specificity of CREB siRNA.
SignalSilence® CREB siRNA from Cell Signaling Technology (CST) allows the researcher to specifically inhibit CREB expression using RNA interference, a method whereby gene expression can be selectively silenced through the delivery of double stranded RNA molecules into the cell. All SignalSilence® siRNA products are rigorously tested in-house and have been shown to reduce target protein expression by western analysis.
Quality Control
Oligonucleotide synthesis is monitored base by base through trityl analysis to ensure appropriate coupling efficiency. The oligo is subsequently purified by affinity-solid phase extraction. The annealed RNA duplex is further analyzed by mass spectrometry to verify the exact composition of the duplex. Each lot is compared to the previous lot by mass spectrometry to ensure maximum lot-to-lot consistency.
Directions For Use
CST recommends transfection with 100 nM CREB siRNA I 48 to 72 hours prior to cell lysis. For transfection procedure, follow protocol provided by the transfection reagent manufacturer. Please feel free to contact CST with any questions on use.
Each vial contains the equivalent of 100 transfections, which corresponds to a final siRNA concentration of 100 nM per transfection in a 24-well plate with a total volume of 300 μl per well.
CREB is a bZIP transcription factor that activates target genes through cAMP response elements. CREB is able to mediate signals from numerous physiological stimuli, resulting in regulation of a broad array of cellular responses. While CREB is expressed in numerous tissues, it plays a large regulatory role in the nervous system. CREB is believed to play a key role in promoting neuronal survival, precursor proliferation, neurite outgrowth, and neuronal differentiation in certain neuronal populations (1-3). Additionally, CREB signaling is involved in learning and memory in several organisms (4-6). CREB is able to selectively activate numerous downstream genes through interactions with different dimerization partners. CREB is activated by phosphorylation at Ser133 by various signaling pathways including Erk, Ca2+, and stress signaling. Some of the kinases involved in phosphorylating CREB at Ser133 are p90RSK, MSK, CaMKIV, and MAPKAPK-2 (7-9).

What exactly counters darkrai without sleep clause besides multiple scarfers, multiple lum berries and thundurus? Since without sleep clause darkrai is by far one of the most prominent threats.
Assuming they're running mono attacking sub/dark void/np set, but if they choose to opt for pure attacker. 252SpAtk Life Orb Darkrai (Neutral) Focus Blast in Sandstorm vs 252HP/252SpDef Leftovers Tyranitar (+SpDef): 83% - 99% (336 - 400 HP). Guaranteed 2HKO. Tyranitar is outsped and falls with even the slightest amount of prior damage done to it.
I owned the whole opponent's team and I had 5 pokés, he had a 24 pct HP Genesect and Darkrai. He won. Go figure lol I think there is no further testing needed
http://pastebin.com/qAGsr4r3 I think this battle is a good example of just how good Darkrai really is. My opponent tried to play around it with a SleepTalk Terrakion and a Ho-Oh, but to no avail. Bad Dreams is really the clincher, since it allows Darkrai to slowly wear down its checks every time it gets a sleep off. I had several misplays and still won. this thing is ridiculous ban plz
Noctowl. Noctowl @ Leftovers Trait: Imsomnia Evs: 252 HP / 76 SAtk / 180 SDef Calm Nature - Heat Wave - Roost - Toxic - Whirlwind Heat Wave is obviously there for Ferro, Scizor and Genesect, and the latter two are OHKO'd after Rocks with given EV's (Noctowl survives a CB Bullet Punch from Scizor). Noctowl doesn't take Nasty Plot Thunderbolts in case you mispredict, but it can take one (then again, being Scarflocked into Dark Void doesn't do Darkrai any favours against Noctowl). Noctowl is as bulky as things can get if it comes to having Imsomnia/Vital Spirit access, but it is PU with a reason; its specially defensive stats and typing aren't sufficient to be a true special wall and is dead against everything with a physical attack, no matter the tier.
Magic Coat on random mons is a lot of fun right now since people love to spam spore and dark void without thinking. Resttalk kyogre is everywhere, and both forms of girantina are dropping since it's weak to dark pulse, which is a shame since its a great counter to breloom and heracross.
I was playing against a guy on Ubers with a quickly made up team, testing the new clause, and he missed one Dark void on me lol His friends started QQing saying it was gay and that I should forfeit. Arceus is pretty cool with a lum berry. Also, Thundurus can completely counter Darkrai with a +1 priority Substitute.
If you won't adjust your team then Darkrai can easily screws you up. [box]Turn 7 Palkia is tightening its focus! The foe's Darkrai used Dark Void! Palkia fell asleep! Palkia ate its Chesto Berry! Palkia woke up! Palkia used Focus Punch! It's super effective! The foe's Darkrai lost 94% of its health! The foe's Darkrai fainted! [/box] That was fun but not works if Darkrai has Sub up.
I'd had 3 dark voids miss in a row, 7 focus blasts, 2 stone edges, many other things. Trust me, luck doesn't usually smile on me. It's all about odds, it's how the game works, it isn't fair, but it's how it goes
Um guys. I can already tell how horrible this suspect round is going to be. I am sorry to say, but I am not going to participate in this round. It will be entirely too painful to ladder under these conditions. It is essentially the moody suspect round all over again, with the broken clause going on EVERY MOTHERFUCKING TEAM. I also will not be trying the broken ability, because I bet that at least 25% of the games will be decided upon by d void miss, or speed ties. Count me out.................. For now Time to bring out the ole kyogre set.
f1rst (Move your mouse to reveal the content) f1rst (open) f1rst (close) Okay. Now that players have started to realize Sleep Clause is gone (for now), matches have been a lot more interesting. I've played many games that came down to who outpredicts who, and so far the metagame has been a lot more interesting than I thought it would be. Random Pokémon are now carrying Sleep Talk or Lum Berry, so Darkrai is a lot harder pressed than before to find a free turn to hope that Dark Void misses. Darkrai pairs well with Deoxys-S and Heracross, from what I've found. Hera is still the best Darkrai counter in the game, and now that Darkrai is on most competent teams, Hera is a cool check to some odd Pokémon that Darkrai hates such as Terrakion, Arceus, and opposing Darkrai. In return, Darkrai can handle every Ghost-type with ease, potentially opening up a late-game Heracross sweep. 252 Attack Deoxys-S is great because it can kill Genesect with Fire Punch, or at least keep it from coming in again with a layer of hazards. It can also Taunt or even Magic Coat opposing Darkrai to keep them from using Sub and Dark Void. I have to say that I was never much of a fan of Deoxys-S until this suspect test, but it's been working great as a suicide lead. Lum Arceus was a thorn in my team's side, because I elected not to have a spinblocker due to Darkrai. Extremespeed Rayquaza too. So now about that Sleep Clause... I am torn about whether or not it should be banned. It clearly recentralizes the metagame around dealing with Darkrai (or Smeargle?), but the defining difference in philosophy of Ubers versus the "real" tiers is that centralization of the metagame is not a good reason for something to be banned. Sure Darkrai is centralizing, but so is Kyogre, Normal Arceus, and Ghost Arceus. The big question to me is whether the No Sleep Clause metagame is so much less enjoyable or competitive as to warrant reintroducing Sleep Clause, and I'm leaning ever-so-slightly towards yes. So many of my games have come down to a Darkrai vs. Darkrai showdown. The most common Darkrai set I've seen is 252 SpA / 252+ Spe @ Leftovers with Dark Void / Dark Pulse / Substitute / Focus Blast. Whoever comes out ahead suddenly has a huge advantage. Similarly, two Deoxys-S leads facing each other basically have to play chicken with Magic Coat and Taunt. These mirror matchups are not new, but they have been happening annoyingly often. It's still far from turning entire games into rock-paper-scissors, but it feels like you can't make a wrong move or else you're playing one Pokémon down, and that Pokémon was your best Pokémon. A lot of top players seem to like matches that hinge on a crucial outprediction, so what's the problem? The rest of the aftermath. Dark Void has 80% accuracy. It's good, but relying on it is asking for trouble. Sometimes my opponent with a Choiced Pokémon predicted correctly and chose Sleep Talk, only to have Dark Void miss. Games have been pretty wild lately with the hax from 3- and 1-turn sleeps, Dark Void misses, Focus Blast misses, and loads of crucial mispredictions. With a layer or two of hazards up, a single missed play or instance of hax stings a lot. All this is nothing new to Ubers obviously, but having multiple Pokémon asleep for 1 to 3 turns (with the counter resetting when switched in), THEN the lack of Sleep Clause on top of all the stuff we had to deal with before is really pushing it. Sleep Clause is less necessary than Moody Clause, but I think it twists the metagame slightly more than the lack of OHKO Clause. I seriously doubt Sleep Clause will be done away with, because I see it as amplifying what already was "wrong" with Ubers: centralization and hax. Not that I see my vote mattering much, in the end. So far this metagame seems really unpopular if people don't even want to go for reqs this round... P.S. I'm pretty sure this has been used for another suspect test, but I thought this was the obvious song choice: Enter Sandman (Move your mouse to reveal the content) Enter Sandman (open) Enter Sandman (close) [youtube]CD-E-LDc384[/youtube]
Sigh... everyone is complaining about the absense of Sleep Clause. Please don't stop this suspect test; after I qualify, I will get a tiering contributor badge (iirc). The metagame does not suck. I have been having more fun than ever since it is more challenging to ladder and get voting requirements this time. Use Lum Berry Arceus or Choice Band Ho-Oh (with Sleep Talk) if you are worried about Darkrai. Also... Darkrai isn't the main problem; it is Smeargle. Has anyone caught onto this? Smeargle can now put multiple Pokemon to sleep, so it does not have to worry about its SmashPass strategy getting ruined as often as it would have in the past. I love lulling multiple Pokemon to sleep with my Substitute Darkrai. I encourage all of you to try it! It is a perfectly legit strategy. The most powerful sleep abusers are: Substitute Darkrai and SmashPass Smeargle! Anyway, I don't see a huge difference on the ladder other than the army of Darkrais. My teams work as well as they have done in the past. It's no big deal.

4/5 rDev -5.4%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Poured from a bomber into a snifter. Off white head, dissipated quickly, nice lacing throughout review. Orange, red, deep amber...not cloudy but "thick".
Hops and sweet caramel on the nose. Molasses, malty...a pleasant mix of all.
First sip...sweet creamy molasses...almost syrupy...light carbonation and a nice full mouthfeel...followed by coriander, lemon, and caramel. Fresh green grass, herbal raw turnip...dry, peppery, somewhat earthy dirt on the finish. It becomes quite pungent on the tongue. It's a bitter finish that lingers, the alcohol comes out in the end, warm and biting...the sweetness takes a back seat to the bitter finish but hangs just enough to remember the great beginning.
This is a very good Imperial IPA...I love the beginning of it...sweet and chewy, caramel and molasses, coriander and lemon...however the finish is a bit dry and bitter for my liking?
I think if I was going to buy an Imperial I'd stick with Deschutes Hop Henge (a personal favorite)..or to keep it inexpensive and have a bottle or two a night I'd just stick with SN Torpedo...a little less alcohol and much more smooth and balanced for my taste. I would not pass up if offered but probably wont buy again for some time.
Update - After letting the Ale warm some I've noticed the bitterness has either mild some or I have grown use to it...the finish is much sweeter now...a hour into my first glass and I'm almost finished. I'd say let this puppy warm a little and you're going to have a much more enjoyable experience...cheers!
Serving type: bottle

Eric Aybar Helps Rally Angels Past Cubs at Diablo Park
Eric Aybar (on an injury rehab assignment) singled and walked and scored two runs, Quentin Davis punched-out three RBI singles, and Jonathan Walsh belted a solo HR, as the Angels rallied to defeat the Cubs 7-4 in Cactus League Extended Spring Training action this morning at Diablo Park Field #7 in Tempe, AZ.
Dillon Maples got the start for the Cubs and allowed one run on two hits and two walks in three innings of work (50 pitches). He also struck out five and threw a wild pitch. His hammer-curve was virtually unhittable (as it usually is), and he was able to command his fastball somewhat better today than in previous outings.
Josh Vitters continued his EXST rehab assignment, playing 3B for seven innings and batting five times. He flied out twice, grounded out, and reached base on an Eric Aybar error and on an HBP, and he also made an outstanding double-saving backhanded diving catch on the 3rd base line. He certainly looks like he's ready to return to Iowa.
Here is the abridged box score from today's game (Cubs players only):
X. Josh Vitters, 3B: 0-4 (F-9, F-7, 4-3, E-6, HBP)

Well, recently in that he'll make a web-gem play, then cost his team the game or his pitcher 20 more pitches needlessly with his next error. He can hit though, and this certainly can cover a lot of shit.

The Kristina Milan Challe
April 30th, 2010
A boob-man might find his brain clouding over when given the dream opportunity to have sex with a super-busty, super-lactating girl like Kristina Milan. Should you spend the whole time playing with and sucking her milk-producing tits? Fucking them, too? After all, every girl has a pussy, but very few girls in the world have J-cup naturals like Kristina's. And there's another problem: Even if you plan to eventually fuck her pussy, there's a good chance you'll lose your load all over her tits before the pussy action starts. What's a man to do?
Fortunately, our surrogate in these photos and the accompanying video gets it all done. We don't know how, but he does. After Kristina puts on a tight top and bra show, the music stops, the guy shows up and Kristina gets her boobs milked. He licks the milk off her nipple and sucks out a little more. Next, we're treated to a sensational looking-up view of Kristina sucking the dude's cock over her massive, milk-dripping tits. And then, Kristina's massive boob shelf nearly fills the screens as she lies across his thighs to suck his cock. The only things we can see are Kristina's sucking mouth, her huge, brown tits and big, hard nipples. Finally, there's tit-fucking, and as Kristina's massive mammaries make the dude's cock disappear, you'll be thinking, "He's gonna blow now!" But he doesn't, and he's still rock hard when Kristina sits on top of his cock and pumps it with her pussy. And she's still lactating!
We don't know about you, XLGirls.com members, but the Dominican Republic has just gone up a few notches on our places-to-go list.

Do Not Track proposal runs into more roadblocks
The Do Not Track proposal seems to be causing confusion and frustration among some W3C members charged with approving it.
Once ratified, the DNT policy would require advertisers and other third parties to turn off tracking for Internet users whose browser settings specifically restrict it.
The push for DNT has already created a chasm between advertisers, who naturally want the policy to be as lean as possible, and privacy advocates, who want tough standards.
