Accelerated BS/MS Admission Requirements:

1. | Volunteering | ||
What you do when you get arrested Attorney: if you don't want to go on probation, you had better get your 24 hours of volunteering done. I recommend seniors and the latino employment fair.
2. | volunteering | ||
1)The act of giving of yourself to help others. Often followed by a rush of happiness at knowing you've made a difference, but sometimes frustration occurs at going unappreciated or unacknowledged.
However, many people volunteer tirelessly anyway, not wanting or needing any validation or applause for what they do. 2)What many high school students are forced into doing in order to graduate. (In many schools you must log a certain number of volunteer hours to recieve your diploma.) 1)-"Where were you Saturday?"
-"I was volunteering... tutoring little kids in math." -"Wasn't it lame?" -"Not really. They even sorta looked up to me. It was cool." -"Okay then..." 2) She was volunteering at the library every weekend to log enough community service hours to graduate. |
3. | volunteering | ||
An activity motivated by one's own enthusiasm and passion. It can be something that lasts a few minutes or a lifetime, but importantly always involves an individual interacting with the people around them (online or offline). Wow, that website Urban Dictionary has developed thanks to the enthusiastic acts of many, many people volunteering their time- some great, some not so great.
4. | volunteering | ||
people volunteer at church, school or community for many reasons: mostly because they want to help and be involved, but there are other reasons, too.
In some areas, like school and church, there's a significant social pressure to volunteer, it's frowned upon not to do it. So some people do it for that reason - just to keep or gain a good reputation. Some schools require their student's parents to volunteer a certain amount of hours or to pay additional tuition. Other people volunteer to meet new people, like after relocating from another city. People volunteer, because they feel the obligation to do it, or the passion. Others again volunteer to fill a void in their lifes. There are many reasons to volunteer, and many ways to do so. People here look strange at you, if you don't volunteer in some way.
Volunteering is fun. You can help others and meet new interesting people at the same time. I'm divorced and my children are grown up and live on the other side of the country. So I volunteer to have something to do. |
5. | volunteering | ||
Something stupid people do to feel better about themselves due to chronic low self-esteem problems as well as religious idiocy. Mary is an idiot for volunteering because she could be sleeping or getting paid, or doing both at the same time.

Losing the Emulator Window When Game Starts
When I select the ISO to begin playing the game: the window for the ePSXe disappears. When I close out of my game, the emulator is still running in the background and I have to manually end the process. I'm not sure if it's because the ePSXe window closes out or not because the ePSXe processes keep adding up if I start it again and don't close it manually beforehand. Is there a fix to this? It is not an issue if there isn't, it is just a bit tedious after awhile. |

To avoid this before exit first you should hit the "Esc" key so the game window hides and the main window of the emulator will show then close the main window.

Penne with garlic, anchovies and broccoli: Stock your pasta with building blocks to create stellar pasta sauces in a pinch, then use our step-by-step formula to raise your pasta game. (Michael Tercha/Chicago Tribune) |
Whether you are shopping for produce at your local farmers market or your grocery store or even harvesting from your own vegetable garden, our tips will help you keep those fresh and tasty meals coming year-round.
Once your pantry is stocked, just follow the formula to help you riff on the ingredients. Your pasta repertoire will expand exponentially.
Start with staples
Keep these basics on hand to build the foundation of delicious pasta dishes.
Dried pasta: Buy your favorite brand when it goes on sale. Make sure to pick up lots of shapes, including thin and thick versions of long pastas and several fun short ones. You'll be surprised at how different sauces taste when tossed with different noodles.
Fresh pasta: If your supermarket carries a local brand of frozen ravioli or tortellini, grab a couple of bags to have on hand. We prefer frozen fresh pasta to refrigerated.
Olive oil: Don't buy the cheapest, but don't buy the most expensive either. A good store brand Italian or Spanish olive oil will help carry flavors throughout a pasta dish.
Tomato paste: A squeeze of tomato paste from a tube stored in the refrigerator can build a rich base of flavor when cooked for a few moments with your aromatics. See our formula for the tasty details.
Canned tomatoes: A few cans of whole peeled tomatoes and a few cans of crushed should be at the ready even for quick simmered sauces. Choose a brand that's imported from Italy. We also keep a jar of prepared marinara sauce on hand to add to our quickest weeknight creations.
Dried herbs and spices: A well-edited collection of spices and herbs can lift a limited pantry. We suggest dried oregano, bay leaf, nutmeg, black peppercorns for grinding, and cayenne or red chile flakes if you like some heat.
Chickpeas and beans: Canned legumes can be drained, rinsed and tossed with pastas for a big protein boost. Experiment with different colors and sizes.
Anchovies, tuna, sardines: Canned fish can scare off some folks, but their depth of flavor brings out the best in so many dishes. Buy the best quality fish packed in olive oil and add the whole can to your sauce.
Wine, stock: A glug of white wine or stock (or both!) can add just enough liquid to a sauce without watering down flavor. Save the last glass in the bottle in the fridge, and buy low sodium broths in small cartons or cans.
Frozen peas: On days when even a quick trip to the supermarket is out of the question, a handful of frozen baby peas tossed into the pasta pot at the end of the noodles' cooking time will add color and nutrients.
Add perishables
Your perishable pantry may need to be restocked every time you shop, but the rewards are huge. These necessities can be supplemented by seasonal vegetables and your favorite meats and seafood.
Garlic, onions, shallots: These staples, along with fennel, celery and carrots, are also known as aromatics, and will help build a base of flavor.
Cream: Though it's definitely not low in calories, cream can't be beat for quick, rich alfredo-style sauces. Look for a brand that is not labeled "ultra-pasteurized" for a fresher flavor and better sauce texture.

A Tamil in UK who must remain Anonymous … responding to Tamil nationalist commemorations of the Tiger and Tamil dead and to a photograph by Robert Pinney [see below] depicting this event in mid-May 2013**
It really bothers me that the protest of 'Tamils… gathered around photographs of those killed during the Sri Lankan civil war' is being symbolized by people carrying the LTTE flag. Anyone who protests that massacres of Tamils in 2009 should by no means do so under the Tiger flag. In 2009, the Tigers forced innocent Tamil civilians to remain in the Vanni – under pain of death. When I was working in the Vanni, I began to truly sympathize with the Tamils who stayed behind in Sri Lanka. They lost EVERYTHING under the Tigers and the GOSL A shed with garlanded photographs of maaveerar, Batticaloa locality, c. 2004 Continue reading

Who else is going to try to use every unit?
Posted 25 March 2012 - 08:53 PM

Posted 25 March 2012 - 10:04 PM
I know I will if the game makes it to Australia. I think I'll form a main group of units to participate in story-based missions while I'll train the other units in skirmishes mostly for the lulz, although I'll probably replace units in my main group if another one in my skirmish group exceeds them (and if I like them).
Australia = EU = we are getting the game :D
Posted 25 March 2012 - 10:07 PM
I always use every character, changing them up every replay.
Posted 25 March 2012 - 10:16 PM
Posted 25 March 2012 - 11:12 PM
Which means probably all female units will get to see use at one point since I like doing all girls runs.

Australia = EU = we are getting the game :D
I thought Nintendo of Europe and Nintendo of Australia operated separately.

Posted 26 March 2012 - 04:04 AM
so yeah, if I can, I'd like to use any character. . .
Posted 26 March 2012 - 04:05 AM
Postgame will probably be another story, assuming it exists and is thoroughly complete.
Posted 26 March 2012 - 04:21 AM
Not me, there's only room for so many and there are a number of units that I don't like (Frederick, Mariabel) or might not be using for other reasons (I can see myself only using one of Sumia and Tiamo, for example).
Bahhh I wouldn't worry about it bro. I'm sure you'll plan for at least 6 months after it gets released, getting as many testamonials from as many people as possible before wading into the murky waters of "strategizing in a strategy game". Then after getting a bad RNG roll and actually being hit by an enemy, you'll take many moons to repent of the error in your intense calculations, eventually leading you to a timid second attempt, which will also result in less than perfection, soon repeated many times over until eventually you give in to the despair of all those who foolishly try to play a strategy game and use actual strategy. I have no doubt though... within the next four years, you may eventually beat the game at least once, maybe getting at least to the 70% mark, but only time shall tell.

Sacred Stones, I got everyone to Level 20 thanks to the Tower and Ruins. If the Arena was available on the map, I would have used it too.
Radiant Dawn, I did my best to get everyone to Third Tear, but some of them didn't get the chance, like some from Micaiah's group.
I want to use all the units in Awakening, especially to see which ones I'll use for the Link.
Posted 26 March 2012 - 10:59 AM
Hey, Meg can become a great unit if you play her right. I forged her a pretty good sword and also gave her the Brave Sword. Not to mention that by her Third Tier, she had maxed out her speed and almost her defense. She's a pretty good unit if you try hard. Fiona was tough too, but I managed to get her up there in Strength and Skill. Gave her Adept and Vantage and it worked in my favor.if there's hopless units, like meg then no :P
Posted 26 March 2012 - 11:00 AM
Posted 26 March 2012 - 11:02 AM
You're right, I apologize.wait is this topic about leveling all the units up or just to use them once or twice? :P
It would be pretty awesome if you could use them all in some kind of special map with 100+ enemies.

Michael Dixon hasn't had a job since September, but he's definitely not relaxing at home.
Living at a friend's house without paying rent, he spends all day searching online for job opportunities and more short-term ways to make money, fearing that if he stops to watch TV, he'll miss something.
"It's kind of like a feeling of 'I can't believe this is happening to me,' and a sense of hopelessness," said Dixon, a 38-year-old Seattle resident. "You really, really, truly start to question who you are."
Dixon, an experienced software test engineer, knows he's not alone in his jobless turmoil. The unemployment rate in the United States is at 8.1%, but that doesn't include people who haven't been looking for a job recently.
Deceptively, the unemployment rate will likely drop this summer, but that's because federal extended unemployment benefits are running out for an additional 115,000 people. That statistic doesn't capture just how many Americans have been desperately wishing for a job for a long time.
Psychologists point out serious mental health consequences of being in Dixon's situation for a long time.
It's common for people who have been unemployed for six months or longer to show signs of depression, says Diane Lang, psychotherapist based in Livingston, New Jersey. Eating habits focus on comfort foods, leading to binging. Stress, anxiety and negative thoughts make it hard to get a good night's sleep, resulting in fatigue and lethargy.
"Being unemployed is actually one of the most difficult, most devastating experiences that people go through," said Robert L. Leahy, director of the American Insitiute for Cognitive Therapy and author of "The Worry Cure."
Research suggests that being unemployed doubles a person's chance of a major depressive episode and that unemployment is also highly associated with domestic violence and alcohol abuse, Leahy said. Unemployment is also associated with an increased risk of suicide, often because of the link to depression, according to the Suicide Research and Prevention Center.
Men with children tend to view unemployment as more a defeat than women with children, Leahy said, perhaps because women might be more likely to view a lack of a job as a chance to spend more time with family.

Manhattan Beach has spent the year celebrating its 100th birthday, and now the city will have an art piece to remember it for years to come.
"Light Gate," an almost 15-foot-tall artwork composed of stainless steel, glass and prismatic film with a large keyhole-shaped passageway through the middle, will be installed at Highland Avenue and 14 th Street in the public plaza between City Hall and the new library.
The glass, laminated with prismatic lighting film, will create rich and varied light effects with the sun, according to the Cambridge, Mass.-based artists, Mags Harries and Lajos Héder. As visitors move around the sculpture, it will shift from transparency to prismatic refraction to mirror reflection, they said.
The city put out a call to more than 1,300 artists in June in search of a piece, budgeted at $130,000 from the Public Art Trust fund, that would "create an exceptional visual experience for locals and visitors, celebrate the city's past and inspire future generations."
After receiving 160 qualified submissions from across the country, the Cultural Arts Commission and Art in Public Places Committee narrowed them down to five finalists in August.
The City Council approved the piece at its meeting earlier this week.
"A fulcrum of city and sand, 'Light Gate' provides a connection port/gateway from past to future, grounds the viewer at the civic center and encourages them to look out over the horizon to imagine a future of endless
Supporters on the council praised the piece as "iconic," "timeless," and "engaging."
"What I really love is the framing of the ocean and horizon," Councilwoman Amy Howorth said. "You can touch (the piece), you can walk under it, there will be rainbows on the ground. Kids will go nuts over it."
Mayor Wayne Powell said at first he questioned what the sculpture had to do with Manhattan Beach.
"As with art sometimes, it starts to grow on you; you start seeing things," he said. "You can see the ocean through the keyhole. The more I look at it, the more I like it."
Jodi Thomas, a sculptural artist, said she is in love with the design.
"It captures a lot of what Manhattan Beach is about," she said. "I like that you can touch and feel and experience the work of art."
Councilman Richard Montgomery, the sole dissenting vote, agreed with a couple of residents who felt the piece did not capture or connect with Manhattan Beach and could easily be installed in any city.
"Where is the pier? How 'bout Sand Dune Park? Something that reflects our city. I don't see anything that does that," he said. "How does it tie to the city?"
Resident Jon Chaykowski compared the chosen sculpture to "The Bean" in Chicago.
"'The Bean' is entertaining, but it doesn't say anything about Chicago," he said. "I envision sand and ocean. I don't recognize (the city's) history in the pieces that I saw."
But Howorth said that because the piece is conceptual, it will remain timeless.
"In five, 10, 15 years, it will be about something else because it doesn't say what it is," she said.
Parks and Recreation Director Richard Gill did not yet have an estimate of when the sculpture would be installed. He said the city's next steps are developing an agreement with the artists, working with them to refine the conceptual design and coordinating with the architects of the new library, as the piece will be installed next to it.

Certainly has it's own flavor! Not afraid to stand out. Fleet Foxes is a nice addition.
Haters be damned, your chart has undeniable merit. Lo-o-ove to see Hey Rosetta! and City and Colour. Little known fact that Canadian music really is the best in the world.
some amazing stuff
contrary to your chart, there were great albums before 1990 not by the beatles or the who.
Alltough if find your picks opportunistic, I agree with some of your classical picks.
it'll grow as my musi c taste does

Welcome, guest

The German investors tend to be as conservative as they come – and as a result they shun volatile equities in favour of the stability of bonds. Bonds are the largest asset class in German institutional portfolios, but their share has shrunk from 74% in 2011 to 46% at present, according to Union Investment's latest annual risk survey of 106 investors. This is because even bonds are no longer seen as being a risk-free asset class – because of interest rates being so low and the increased possibilities of sovereign default. Dr Uwe Rathausky (pictured) founded Gané Aktiengesellschaft with Henrik Muhle in 2007 as an investment partnership and the duo has developed a strategy which views equities through the prism of bonds. "For us, shares are a kind of equity bond," according to Rathausky. He adds: "The future coupon is dependent on operating...

The Tobacco Product Display Restriction bill would require stores to keep tobacco products under the counter or in cabinets or other concealed spots.
Read New Yorkers' thoughts on the proposed hiding of cigarettes in stores.
The Sensible Tobacco Enforcement bill would combat cigarette smuggling and the selling of discount tobacco products, set the minimum price of a pack of cigarettes or cigarillos to $10.50 and increase penalties for the unlicensed sale of tobacco.
There are some loopholes in the bills. Stores can still post signs both outside and inside saying that they sell cigarettes and display cigarette companies' ads. Also, establishments that earn more than half of their revenue from tobacco products would be exempt from the display restrictions.
The new measures aim to reduce the youth smoking rate, which had been dropping since 2001 but in the last few years has plateaued.
After unveiling his new plan Monday, Bloomberg was asked about critics who have criticized his public health proposals as creating a "nanny state," including a New York Post graphic that depicted the mayor as the fictional nanny Mary Poppins.
"Let me tell you how many people are still alive because of it and that's all you care about is a stupid cartoon? I take that as a great badge of honor," Bloomberg said. "It says we're trying to do something to save lives. Didn't you learn as a kid we're on this earth together we should be trying to help each other and save lives. It's one of the most wonderful cartoons I've ever seen."
"Tobacco is an addictive drug that still kills several times more Americans than heroin, cocaine, crack, crystal meth, and all other illegal drugs combined," said Dr. Thomas Farley, the city health commissioner.
The proposals triggered a swift backlash from organizations representing bodegas and convenience stores.
John Calvin, the president of the New York Association of Convenience Stores, said, "We think it's totally absurd. Whoever heard of taking away the fundamental right of a retail store to display the products that they are licensed to sell?" The Bodega Association of the United States is warning that stores will close if the city keeps restricting what they can sell.
"It doesn't make sense," said a bodega owner. "We are still going to be selling it. Just because it is not being displayed, it makes no sense at all."
A bodega owner who supported the bill told NY1, "I like it. The small kids, they won't come and see the cigarettes."
The bills are expected to be introduced to the City Council on Wednesday.

It is you, it is you, it is all for you.
I have SoulSilver, and I'm wondering if I want to do a Monotype Nuzlocke for it....but what type?I'm sort of on Grass/Flying/Fire.Someone give me an opinion out of those three, please.
Current SoulSilver team
Current location: Ice Path
I claim the Chikorita line! I lufflez 'em!
So yeah, I just started the said Psychic monotype challenge and I am yet without Psychics in my team...
However, I am just waiting for the first opportunity to transfer a Smoochum and Mime Jr.
I also have Ralts and Natu to transfer.
Girafarig and Meditite will be caught instead of transfered, since they can be easily found on regular tall grasses.
I will edit the post later with updates.
~sorry for the double post~
So after beating the first gym with no psychic Pokémon on my team, I transfered Mime Jr. and Smoochun... I must say the user amittal12 was right about the psychic challenge being hard o.o
That fight against Mars at Valley Windworks was definitely not easy :< Her Purugly kept using Pursuit in my beautiful babies :< The battles in Eterna Forest and Eterna Gyms were quite easy, on other hand, since most of the Pokémon in there are part Poison-types and my Smoochun has Powder Snow to get rid of Flying and Grass-Types. But even so, Gardenia's Roserade wasn't THAT easy to take down. I must say I am enjoying this challenge a lot and the Psychic-Type is earning more of my respect.
So yeah, here is my team as of now:
Mimi, the Mime Jr; Level 18. ~I did not let she evolve to Mr Mime~
Ioga, the Meditite ; Level 20.
Rouge, the Smoochun ; Level 20.
???, the Natu (I don't remember the nickname) ; Level 27.
I'll be not using she until I start losing battles due to lack of more Pokémon in my team.
Can't wait to catch a Bronzor too :3

It is you, it is you, it is all for you.
I've decided to start a Water Monotype challenge on SoulSilver version. I was debating whether to use Fire-types or Water-types, but I finally chose the latter when I remembered that Fire-types are lacking in HG/SS. Anyway, I started the game and I chose my character. I headed downstairs and my mom gave me the Pokegear and explained the features and such. I then headed over to Professor Elm's lab and after agreeing to help Professor Elm, I chose Totodile as my Starter Pokemon. I left town after that, and I wandered onto Route 29. I battled some Rattata and Pidgey along the path, and then I picked an Apricorn from a tree. I then arrived at Cherrygrove City, and I got a tour of the city from an old man. I then received the Running Shoes from him along with the Map application for the Pokegear after buying items and healing my Totodile at the local Pokemon Center. I then saved.
- Totodile level 7
#thuglife #navy #ratchet
My save file is gone and honestly, I can't stand playing DPPt again >_< I finished these games like... a lot of times.
I am doing a Flying-Type run in my Leaf Green version, after I finish it, I plan to start a Ghost- or Fighting-Type Run in Heart Gold...
PS: The monotype threads are so dead lately :/
It is you, it is you, it is all for you.
Meh. Decided to ditch my Nuzlocke(It's still in my frikkin siggy :P) early and decide on a Monotype.Considering Flying and others... choose, please?
If any other is worthwhile, say so.
Limited resources.
(So freaking limited.)
Current SoulSilver team
Current location: Ice Path
I claim the Chikorita line! I lufflez 'em!
Wow, haven't done one of these in a while...
Considering the surprising lack of active challenges, I've decided that, after completing my last playthrough of the game, I am going to replay my copy of Pokemon SoulSilver as a Flying-type Monotype Challenge.
Due to the vast number of Flying-type Pokemon available, however, I plan to make this interesting... in the form of a rotation party that will constantly change with the top six of the assortment used for the Elite Four the first time and the top six once again used for Red at the end.
Wish me luck!
I say go with Flying. You can't really get a Psychic-type on HG/SS until after the Zephyr Badge (looking at your Pokemon rosters, that's the game I'm guessing you're using) with Slowpoke and, later on, you can also get Pokemon like Murkrow, Gligar/Gliscor (HG only), Skarmory (SS only) or Dratini/Dragonair/Dragonite as well.
I have SS...WAITWAT YOU CAN GET SKARMORY? May change Pidgeot to Skarmory or Dragonite.
I'll do flying. Always wanted a challange.
Current SoulSilver team
Current location: Ice Path
I claim the Chikorita line! I lufflez 'em!
Aye, Skarmory can be found on Route 45 in SoulSilver, outside of Blackthorn City. May I suggest possibly switching Pidgeot to Skarmory (Noctowl has Hypnosis, which is quite useful) and possibly Butterfree for Dratini (Scyther is the only Bug-type you'll need on that Monotype Team and easily the superior Pokemon).
'Kay. I'm just worried that I'll have only about 4 Pokemon for most of the Jhoto Reigon...
Scyther <3

Flight of Champions: A Flying Monotype Challenge
After the opening game sequence, naming my player character 'Sora' after a Japanese word meaning 'sky', and choosing my Starter of Cyndaquil (will most likely train him after the Challenge is complete), I set out to pick up the Mystery Egg from Mr. Pokemon. Upon receiving the Egg and obtaining the Pokedex, however, I start wishing I hadn't left Totodile at the lab... to fall right into the mysterious redheaded thief's hands, who swiftly challenged me to a battle!
VS. Passerby Boy
This battle was swift, in all honesty. A few Leer attacks to lower Totodile's defense and two Tackles were all needed... HOWEVER, it DID get a Critical Hit Scratch in and knocked Cyndaquil into the red before being taken down. Thank goodness for higher speed.
So after learning his name was 'Riku', which translates to 'land', and reporting him to the police with the help of Lyra, who later offered me a capture lesson... well, more like FORCED a capture lesson onto me when I KNEW HOW TO CAPTURE POKEMON... I set out to start training and become a Flying-type master. My first capture was a rather serious but durable male Pidgey, who I nicknamed 'Hayate', a name that translated to 'hurricane', and shortly after I captured a female careful (despite its species' reputation) Spearow I named 'Kazaashi', which meant 'wind speed'... looking back, however, I wish I named her 'Amazora'. For two reasons: one, it meant threatening sky; and two, because she would be quite Amazon in nature when she evolves.
No matter... Name Rater lives in Goldenrod...
My next capture had to wait until the night but I managed to capture myself a jovial lad of a Hoothoot. Naming him was a struggle but, remembering his species' affiliation with mystical wisdom, I decided to give him a name that meant... well... 'mystic wisdom'. And thus, Reichi the Hoothoot joined my party. These small Flying-types are still brittle, however I believe that, given the right push, they may be able to become something more.
And, with my goal being to train every Flying-type obtainable in the Johto Region through my rotation style of training, then I will train them dangit and I will MAKE them a force to be reckoned with!
Roster so far...
On hand -
Hayate/Pidgey Lv. 8
Gender: Male
Nature: Serious (no stat differences)
Hold Item: None
- Tackle
- Sand-attack
Kazaashi/Spearow Lv. 8
Gender: Female
Nature: Careful (+Special Defense, -Special Attack)

Reichi/Hoothoot Lv. 8

Entry Two...
Considering nobody else is updating, may as well post my most recent exploits.
After breezing my way through the rookie trainers of Route 30 and Route 31, leaving two of them for a later teammate to be trained against, I decided to pay a visit to the Dark Cave where, mere steps into my attempt of stumbling through darkness, I had a rather significant encounter with a rather rash and hot-headed Zubat, somewhat vain in personality. But I admit, I admired his guts so I captured him: naming him 'Yozora', which translates to 'night sky'. I have yet to train him, but I believe his final form Crobat will be a significant addition to my team.
Heading through Violet, since it was still the day, I decided to breeze through, only stopping to heal, onto the next route where I saw a rather lonely-looking Hoppip: most likely an outcast of a flock. Feeling sympathy, I took him in and named him 'Tampopo', which meant 'dandelion' according to my sources. I haven't trained him yet due to my sole focus on capturing them both before training, but I do believe they will prove most useful in my later exploits.
Here's to training!

I decided to start an Ice type monotype in Soul Silver awhile ago and have now decided to update info. Before I begin, let me explain how I plan to start a team for a type with no availability until post-Morty. I've collected three eggs for Smoochum, Snorunt, and Shellder, and right when they became close to hatching, I traded them to SS to hatch them as my "starter" team. It took time to train them up to speed so I could ditch my official starter, but they're fine now.
I'm not going to bother posting everything(I'll include most major battles) since the beginning, since I'm now going to Goldenrod City. My trainer is named Soren. And my team now:
Stalagmite (M) Lv. 16
Ira (F) Lv. 16
Julie (F) Lv. 16
Major Battles:
Falkner(Violet City): This battle was simple, naturally, as Ira soloed him with Powder Snow with little trouble. Not much to say here.
Bugsy(Azalea Town): This was a lengthy battle, as his powerhouse Scyther would rip through Julie's horrid defense, and Ira's defense wasn't much better, so Stalagmite had to tank through it all with Icicle Spear. It had little trouble there, with Skill Link, but U-Turn put a dent into his HP, requiring some healing. He managed to take down Metapod and Kakuna, but thing got tight as Scyther's HP got lower. Scyther used Focus Energy, and I became worried about a crit, so I sent out Julie to take a hit, so I could safely send in Ira. This proved successful, and Scyther went down after an Icy Wind.
Silver(Azalea Town): Yeah, I couldn't think of a rival name to use and I didn't care. As for the battle, Zubat went down after a Confusion from Julie, and Gastly suffered the same fate. Croconaw took some time, but Stalagmite took it down aftertaking repeated Bites to the facea Supersonic confused and caused Croconaw to lose half its HP before snapping out of confusion. It then proceeded to spam Scary Face as my already slow Stalagmite took it out with Tackle.
After these important fights, I entered Ilex Forest and got Cut from capturing the Farfetch'd, and I saved.

I claim the Chikorita line! I lufflez 'em!
Well, a lot has happened since I last posted. I forgot how short Johto was, but now my progress has come to a grinding halt (bad pun intended). There are too many battles I've had since then, so I'll avoid creating a huge post with all of them. I'm now training my team to level 40 to fight Clair. I know she won't be tough with Ice types, but this is only to catch up on levels for the E4 later. Now for my unintentionally Lorelei-esque team:
Stalagmite (M) Lv. 37
Ira (F) Lv. 37
Julie (F) Lv. 36
Dew (M) Lv. 37
Fiora (F) Lv. 37
Watermelon (F) Lv. 34
I didn't hope for my team to end up like this, but there was no other choice besides Delibird, bar trading. I would have used him if I didn't need TM's to teach it a move.

5. | metroid | ||
a female who sucks the life from a male, specifically while dating; succubus 1:"Where's Bob?"
2:"With his girlfriend" 1:"Does he ever hang out with the guys anymore?" 2:"No dude, she's a metroid" |
1. | metroid | ||
1: an AWESOME game serial by nintendo featuring the bounty hunter Samus Aran, the first female videogame hero.
2: A creature in the afore mentioned game. THese creatures express predetory and parasitic tendancies in that they latch on to their victims with their large mandibles and syphon the life-force out of them, leaving the victim dead and the metroid larger. They are green with a gelatinous but tough exterior shell containing 4 nucliei. They where created by the Chozo to keep the X-parasites on planet SR388 in check. In metroid they can only be killed by freezing them then shooting 5 missiles at them. 1: Metroid is a freaking awesome game!!!
2. | Metroid | ||
Parasitic lifeform that leeches onto it's host and drains the life of said host. Found on the planet SR-388. The metroid attached to my sac and now I'm sterile.
3. | Metroid | ||
In the ancient Chozo language Metroid means 'Great Warrior'. The Metroid species were named so because of their ability to fight the parasite X. Technically, since Samus Aran is capable of defeating the Metroid species and Parasite X, she is a 'metroid'. Jeezus, I'm gonna get laughed at and lynched for actually knowing what Metroid means. I am SUCH a nerd.
4. | Metroid | ||
Adj; A situation that presents a person with many difficulties usually involving a hard to find object, solution, or path. Party 1: Wow. That was hard.
Party 2: Yea. That was pretty metroid. |
6. | Metroid | ||
A game series that got stupid once it's creator got hit by a car... The Game bases around female bounty hunter Samus Aran. Which makes male players more intrested in seeing her face then anything else.
The point of almost every game is to erdicate little bug things called Metroids, which in my opinion look like bubbles with red balls, and teeth. Also fighting these half monster half cyborg aliens called, 'Space pirates..' Metroid will never get as popular as Castlevania mainly because there are only 8 games released all together. The dumb ass fan games like MP2D don't count. However now the Metroid community is infested with nobody's that spend their time sequnce breaking the games with gameshark codes... Sadly Metroid will never amount to anything lets hope the manga is good... "hey I finnaly beat Metroid Prime in 1 hour!!"
"Yeah and now the world is a better place? i think not get a life..." |
7. | metroid | ||
<person a> : i am soo uber cool. cool like ice!
<person b> : you're such a metroid. |

Founded as a mining town during the Pikes Peak Gold Rush, today Denver is Colorado's center of government, its most populous city and a major transportation hub. If you are looking for Denver hotels, Extended Stay Hotels has several great places to stay, each offering comfortable accommodations and exceptional rates. Click on a local area below for Extended Stay Hotels or view all metropolitan Denver hotels.
Thanks to its location halfway between the eastern and western population centers, Denver is home to enough federal agencies that the city has the largest concentration of federal employees outside of Washington, D.C. Its proximity to the Rocky Mountains is responsible for the significant mining presence and Denver's moniker as the Mile High City. Denver's many cultural venues are as diverse and interesting as the city itself. Traditional art lovers will enjoy visiting the Denver Art Museum, with its permanent collections from around the world and excellent temporary exhibitions. Those more inclined toward the performing arts must visit the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. During any year, patrons can experience all kinds of shows from Shakespeare to Broadway. Denver is proud of its place in history and shows this pride in the number and variety of its museums. A day at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science is fun for young and old alike. In addition to permanent and visiting exhibits, this museum is home to an IMAX Theater and Planetarium. Focused on children from toddler to eight years old, the Children's Museum of Denver is a perfect place to spend two or three hours with your child. Denver offers a number of museums for visitors with specific interests. Among these are the Black American West Museum, the Denver Firefighters Museum and the Denver Museum of Miniatures, Dolls and Toys. If your personal interest happens to be money, you are in luck. The Denver Mint, the largest producer of coins in the world, offers visitors tours of the facility. Just be sure you make reservations before you arrive. Regardless of the season, Denver is an ideal city for outdoor activities. Some consider this area the best in the nation for hiking. About.com describes five fun hikes near Denver that are worth considering. Just an hour and a half north of Denver is Rocky Mountain National Park. The park was created in 1915 and is home to some of America's most dramatic scenery. The Mount Evans Scenic Drive takes you above 14,000 feet elevation to view elk and bighorn sheep.
Sports fans love coming to Denver no matter the season, thanks to the city's numerous professional sports teams. Football fans will want to head to Invesco Field to see the Broncos. The Colorado Rockies baseball team arrived in Denver in 1993 and plays at Coors Field. The Pepsi Center is host of games for both the Colorado Avalanche of the National Hockey League and the NBA's Denver Nuggets.
Denver sports doesn't end with traditional American athletics. The city is also home to two up-and-coming, fast-paced sports, professional lacrosse and professional soccer. The Mammoth of the National Lacrosse League play at the Pepsi Center, and the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer play at Dick's Sporting Goods Park. If a great game and a cold beer sound pretty good, consider that the Miller Coors Brewery is in nearby Golden, Colorado. Denver is also world famous for its microbreweries, like the Great Divide Brewing Company. Stop by either for a tour or a tasting and learn more about beer than you ever thought possible. Thrill-seekers who find themselves in Denver are in for a treat… particularly if they like the kind of thrills that leave you soaking wet. Six Flags Elitch Gardens delivers roller coasters and water rides for adults and kids. For the ultimate water park experience, head to Water World, one of America's largest water parks, spanning over 60 acres.
Denver is a unique place to golf. Included among its courses is Wellshire Golf Course, voted one of the best public facilities in the nation. Thanks to the altitude, you might even get a few extra yards on each drive. Golfers can see a complete list of all Denver golf courses at Golflink.com.
For a comfortable, convenient, and affordable hotel in Denver, Extended Stay Hotels has just what you are looking for.

Revolver (Compact Disc)
This Book Is Not Sold Online - In Store Special Order Only
Special Order - Subject to Availability
In an isolated cabin in an Arctic wilderness, 14?year?old Sig is alone with a corpse: his father, who has fallen through the ice on the lake outside and frozen to death only hours earlier. Then, out of the Arctic darkness, comes a stranger: a terrifying giant of a man claiming that Sig's father owes him a share of a horde of stolen gold ? and threatening awful violence if Sig doesn't reveal the gold's whereabouts. Sig knows nothing about the gold, but he does know that there's a loaded Colt revolver hidden in the cabin's storeroom ? a gun that his father had said would protect him, but which his mother had abhorred. Revolver alternates between the lonely cabin and events during the Alaska Gold Rush ten years earlier, gradually unspooling the mystery of the stolen gold and the terrifying stranger, and building to a climax that turns on whether and why Sig will use the hidden gun. Revolver is a compelling frontier survival story, crafted with the intensity and precision of a one?act play.

The way we define those items that are commonly known of as "books" is rapidly changing. Traditionally, a book was a collection of printed (or written) paper sheets fastened together as a specific, and often expensive, artifact. Most people would refer to a book as something printed and bound, with a collective purpose or overall meaning. A book could be in one of a number of genres. Nonfiction books generally present factual information, while fiction tends to present a story with its own integral progression and meaning.
However, nowadays what we refer to as a book or books doesn't have to be printed, or written, and paper need not be involved at all. There are ebooks, which are electronic texts available to be read on an electronic device such as a computer, ebook reader, or some kind of handheld device like a PDA. There are hypertext "books" which follow varying paths and may have different plots, varied objectives, and even stories that blur the lines between author and reader. There are audio Books which consist solely of spoken word, and books that combine a range of audio visual elements and text. Books can be borrowed from the library, read online, purchased and kept, or shared, played with, read, and deleted.

Margaret Russett, De Quincey's Romanticism: Cultural Minority and the Forms of Transmission
Reviewed by
Paul Youngquist
Penn State University, University Park
Before there was Wordsworth, before the bright and dying Keats, before even Blake came pugnaciously along, for me there was De Quincey. I learned of him early from a guy who was some years my senior. He was a diabetic and had an easy way with needles, poking himself with enviable nonchalance. He looked gnarled and limber—like a stick that just won't snap, no matter how hard you bend it. He gave me two tips that made college a little more interesting than it would have been otherwise. First, drink the best wine you can afford. That usually kept me from the party crowd, the Thunderbird, and a fair amount of foolishness. Second, read De Quincey's Confessions of an English Opium Eater. He even lent me his own old copy (the first one's always free). To say it made an impression would be putting it mildly. I read it night after night, a little at a time, not knowing exactly what I was reading, but transfixed. Here was a very strange way of writing: clear and oblique, concrete and complicated, logical and florid. It was a trip. And it got me to thinking that there might be more to literature than Truth and Beauty, then the apparent prerequisites of Great Writing. De Quincey bothered me, put a little glitch into the literature system that my major was wiring up. I'd like to believe that thanks to him, and to that old hipster who first tipped me off, I acquired a feel for other literary oddballs: Blake, Carroll, Burroughs, Dick, to name a few. At any rate, De Quincey remains for me something other than literature, perhaps other to it, at least as it's institutionally construed.
My experience of De Quincey differs from the one Margaret Russett describes in De Quincey's Romanticism: Cultural Minority and the Forms of Transmission. For her De Quincey is the creature—and the creator—of a literary canon that reproduces a constitutive difference between majors and minors. He's a triple-A essayist to Wordsworth's big-league lyricism, a self-styled second-stringer whose claim to literary fame results directly from his "minority." As Russett understands it, that status reveals much about the production and cultural function of canonical Romantic writing. Unlike the wholly marginal writer, whose recovery proves that she didn't see much play in the production of that canon, the minor writer remains part of the show, "never 'forgotten' and in no danger of becoming so" (6). He occupies the "negative pole" of a dialectic of production that scripts Romantic writing as either "major" or "minor" and evaluates accordingly. So to be minor, as in De Quincey's case, is at least to be not major; minority arises in the image of a greatness it negatively defines.
Such is the force of this dialectic of production that it comes to characterize the whole cultural project of canon formation. Russett's real interest is less in De Quincey per se than in "the production of signature Romantic themes, motifs, and rhetorical effects at the contested and undecidably distorting site of transmission" (8). Minority is thus not so much a literary fact as a cultural function—Russett's "transmission"—that authorizes certain themes, motifs, and effects over others. As such it arises out of neither reading nor interpretation but rather the material conditions of its "institutional locus" (9). Drawing extensively upon the work of Pierre Bourdieu and John Guillory, Russett shows how such conditions make the Romantic canon possible. Its members owe their authority to "the transformed materiality of the institutional habitus: that is, the rarefied literacy, or 'sociolect,' that registers the traces of social stratification" (9). Literary reputation mimics material interest, which is why Russett directs attention away from the ostensible achievement of canonical Romantic writing and toward its circulation as cultural capital. The minor writer best exemplifies this effect precisely because his reputation remains qualified. He's in the canon, but only just, betraying the ideological force of the dialectic that produces it. Hence the urgency of what Russett calls her "largest abstract claim: that the Romantic cult of solitary genius misrecognizes what is in fact a corporate mode of production that the minor's 'genius for instrumentality' both underwrites and unveils" (10). Thanks to his closer proximity to the material conditions of Romantic writing, the minor writer proves its cultural capital to consist mostly of bad bills. A major leaguer like Wordsworth may get the bigger signing bonus, but it falls to De Quincey to cash it in.
And by Russett's account he frequently finds himself short-changed. The bulk of De Quincey's Romanticism examines the various ways that De Quincey's minority supplements and troubles the idealism that colors much Romantic writing, even his own. Russett's "method" is appropriately varied. She approaches De Quincey's writing by multiple paths, some of them little traveled, living up to her claim that the "book is about reading Wordsworth, repeating Coleridge, writing for magazines, and competing for popularity at least as much as it is about interpreting De Quincey" (8). And it's a good thing too; interpreting De Quincey has become something of a growth industry lately. Russett's is the fifth book-length monograph on the Opium Eater to appear since John Barrell's psychopathology of empire, The Infection of Thomas De Quincey (Yale University Press, 1991). What sets Russett's study apart from those others is its concentrated attention to what I'd call the economic unconscious of Romantic writing. While in some cases that unconscious is material and in others affective, Russett shows consistently how it configures De Quincey's minority to troubling ends.
