It's a glitch in the GTS in Dimond and Pearl that can be used to clone pokemon. Cloning in gen V is banned completely unless there is any other glitch that I haven't heard about.
anyone want to trade me a pichu or pikachu for my reshiram no joke i dont like him i want a cute pikachur =)
^That would be better placed in wither the Reshiram or Pikachu line trade forum. But anyway isn't the GTS clone glitch in all of the Gen 4 games?

yeah but it might b due to using my ar on the game at one point so it may not work for everyone. idk but i use it. ive done it several times when i cant get my ar.

To make it clear. I heard doing the gts glitch is simply harder to perform. The timing to do is more exact but people who do it are used to the timing.

I can't say for sure. Ask a mod. I don't want to mislead you.
Edit: Found this in bulbapedia
In Generation IV, if a player is trading Pokémon and one of the Nintendo DS systems is turned off at a certain time, the Pokémon that was traded to the game that was not turned off will appear in both player's parties. However, this glitch is very difficult to perform and quite commonly corrupts save data. There are reports that this method is effective in the Generation V games, but such reports are unconfirmed.
DNS abuse
In Generations IV and V, by manually specifying the DNS address so as to connect to a server other than the GTS, it is possible to clone Pokémon.
So either during a trade or pretending to access a false server is the way to clone. I assume a record of the trade still happens which is why you still see outrageous trades. Problem is I see people using DNS abuse to make hacked pokemon.
So as I said earlier ask a mod. Thats all I could find.

DSN abuse requires an axternal site or program, so that's no less cheating than cloning with AR (I don't think that any method of cloning is cheating though). Here is what it says on Bulbapedian about the GTS glitch:
In Generation IV, a cloning method reminiscent of the methods from the first two generations appeared, involving the use of the GTS. If the Pokémon is deposited in the GTS and the connection is interrupted at the right time, the Pokémon in question would be in the player's party or PC Box and in the GTS, requiring the player only to withdraw the Pokémon from the GTS to obtain the clone. In Pokémon Platinum Version, however, the glitch of cloning via GTS was removed; if it is attempted, the game simply reports a communication error and returns the player back to the main desk.

Dream World Females
Username of Scammer: Cueva27
Friend Code: 3010 7094 6050
After a very large amount of trades made, ever since I registered here in 2007, it seems I sadly met the first dishonest member today, and I'm now reporting him, hopeful that he won't be able to do the same thing to other members.
The member in question is nicknamed Cueva27.
This member contacted me after reading a post of mine on the Togepi 5th Gen trade section , asking me if I had any female Togepi with the Serene Grace ability and the Nasty Plot egg-move, offering a shiny Cloyster in return. I replied affirmatively and added that, for the shiny Cloyster, I would be glad to add a male Togepi with Nasty Plot so he could pass it down by breeding, to which he agreed. On top of this, I made sure both Togepis had interesting IVs, specially the female one that is ready to be trained, something that wasn't asked, but that I was happy to do anyway.
After some days trying to finalize the trade, we finally arranged it a couple of hours prior to this post. Looking backwards, I now reckon the first sign this member could not be in good-faith was when he asked me, and I'll quote his private message: "and what pk u get again or was this a free gift?". Reminding him of what was arranged, he then replied "woah wait what sorry that was taken is kyurem ok haha", letting me know the Pokemon initially offered was taken. Displeased with the member not honoring his own side of the deal but, with really not much of a choice, I was happy to receive the Kyurem in return for the Togepis.
We then proceeded to the Wi-Fi room to finalize the trade. I gave him the first Togepi and he showed the agreed Kyurem, and two "fodder" Pokemon, which I reckoned I was to pick either one for the second Togepi. When doing a 2 for 2 trade, where I'm offered a rare Pokemon and a common one in return for my 2, I prefer to trade for the lower valued one first, leaving the rarer one for last, as proof that I will honor the trade and not leave after the first one goes through.
I picked one of them, a Gothorita, and confirmed the trade. Upon offering him the second Togepi, which would then be dealt for the Kyurem, I received a message stating I lost connection with the other player. Since the game returned me to the Wi-Fi room and said player was offline, I concluded he either lost connection or forgot about the second trade and manually disconnected his console.
Upon contacting him again, letting he know of the pending second trade, I found out the member had a second sudden change of mind after replying he was no longer interested in the second Togepi : "Actually I only wanted the female so I put up kyurem (which I was hoping u would pick since that is he only trademi wanted) but instead u chose event gothorita " . By this point it was pretty obvious the member was not being honest about his intentions. It makes no sense to end a trade with the other player not receiving what was originally agreed. Also, if he changed his mind and only wanted to trade for one Togepi, why would he offer anything else than the Kyurem in the Wi-fi room?
I let him know that I had no interest in the Gothorita and that it was taken as the second Pokemon of the 2 for 2 trade, asking him to either receive the second Togepi in return for the Kyurem, as originally agreed, or, if he was not interested in the second Togepi any more, to replace the Gothorita for the Kyurem, which I believe is the correct way to deal with the situation. The member then replied "oh well.....1st i did not think u would pick the gothorita but at the end is is fair since u get an event when i just get a easy to get togepi....so either way not fair, but i never wanted a male togepi....if u still want to trade we can but next weekend since i am very busy", which pretty much assured me of his poor ethics.
It's pretty clear to me that this was done intentionally and that the owner actually prefers me to have the fodder Pokemon instead of the offered Kyurem, which is arguably more valuable, explaining the disconnection, the sudden change of mind regarding his request and the excuse of not being able to correct the situation due to him "being very busy".
I post this hoping a moderator will take notice and prevent him to trick further members with similar offers.
updated February 10: after contacting one of these forums' moderators, SkittyOnWailord, I was told that Cueva27 was willing to complete the trade, to which I agreed, asking said moderator to set an unbiased date and time for both of us to be online and do the trade, avoiding any kind of delays or attempts to stall it. Unfortunately this never happened and I had to repeatedly, throughout the week, be the one proactively asking Cueva27 to please set a date and time for the trade to be finalized, even though I don't feel the part who's at a loss in this situation has to accommodate for the faulty's part availability. The requests were made Tuesday, the 5th, Saturday the 9th (also here) and today, Sunday the 10th. I made sure to write those posts at times when Cueva27 was online, so he would acknowledge me asking him to set a date and time. No date and time was ever set.
Saturday, the 9th, I read a post by Cueva27 stating he was "available today and now". I sent him a Private Message as soon as i read it at 4:29am GMT stating I was logging in, at a time when the member was online and checking his Private Messages.
The trade ended up not being made as Cueva27 wasn't able to do so when i contacted him (please check the following screenshot). I asked him again to please leave a specific time at this thread, so both of us can be online at that time.
After receiving a message at 4:47am GMT where Cueva27 told me he wasn't able to trade, since it was past midnight in his timezone, he arranged a trade with another member 29 minutes later, at 5:16am GMT....
I left him a Visitor Message asking if he could trade after all, to which he replied, also on his Visitor Messages wall, he couldn't, because the Kyurem was on his Dream World. To make sure he was telling me the truth, I headed to his Dream World island in order to verify he had the Kyurem tucked in. it turns out no Kyurem was tucked in, but a Shaymin was instead .
Sunday, the 10th, I wasted my entire day to make sure I was online at the forums in order to finalize the trade. Upon seeing him online, without replying to my requests in this thread to set a date and time, I sent him a Private Message letting him know I was online and waiting for him, to which he replied informing me he would be able to trade in one hour. I waited one hour. He then informed me, through a Visitor Message, as my inbox got full, that he had to logout because he was going to a friend's house and to church, and asking me to use his Black FC, which I don't have, as the original trade was done on his White 2 game. After asking him to please give me this other Friend Code, he then replied it was too late and that we could trade later on the day (please refer to the previous screenshot). I then asked him, once again, to to please set a time for both of us to be online. He didn't. Some minutes later I noticed he was online, so I assumed he got back from church. I left another Visitor Message letting him know I was still online and able to trade, to which he replied at 1:12am saying "I can't now anymore long story I was actually in the middle of a trade too until my mom grabbed my laptop ending my trade and wifi access I might beable to trade in an hour".
I waited that hour and sent him a Visitor Message at 2:37am letting him know I was online and available to trade. I received no reply, despite him being online for several times after that message. I decided to send him another message almost one hour after the time he told me he was going to be available to trade, to which he replied that was not able to trade afterall: "I TOLD U AT 3pm THAT I COULD TRADE AT THAT MOMENT BUT NOW I CANT OKAY??????MY BLACK WIFI AINT WORKING. 1. stop stalking me. and 2. CHILL".
Once again I'm left waiting for the trade to be completed. It's 3:19am by the time I'm writing this. I have to wake up at 6:50 to go to work. I've spent almost all the free time I had during the past 7 days trying to call this situation to your attention, trying to recover from the loss I suffered from this trade and trying to arrange a date and time for this trade to finally be completed, inclusively forcing myself to stay awake through the dawn to catch him online. I've wasted time that I could have invested working on my master's thesis, with a dishonest young children that's successfully doing whatever pleases him, promising things he doesn't accomplish and arranging plans he ends up changing every time at the last moment justifying them with a roll of excuses that I've many times found out, and proved with screenshots, to be lies. Whatever the reasons could be that were preventing him to complete this trade, I highly doubt they're as urgent as what I've been giving up during the last week to do so. Still, I've been fully available at all times.
Obviously, this isn't about the Kyurem, as the member will quite happily hold on to it. The worry is that this is clearly a person who made a request which, naturally, took me time that I could have used in something else, changed his mind, didn't honor his offer and showed a lack of morals by not correcting his actions after knowing of the other part's dissatisfaction.
I'm starting to feel a bit humiliated and revolted with the way this situation is being dealt with. This member is being very successful in making me look like an idiot, forcing me to be in front of the computer during all the free time I had over the past 7 days, trying to catch him online and asking him times and times again to set a date and time for the trade to be completed. The moderator I contacted seems to have lost interest in my situation as well. I'm having an hard time understanding how easy it has been for Cueva27 to continually dismiss all the attempts I've made to correct this issue, making little effort in taking a proactive stance to reverse the trade. To make things worse, he's obviously playing around with me, saying and promising things he ends up changing at last minute.
All of this is making me believe it's very easy to trick the forums members in a trade and get away with impunity.
I vouch for my ethics and honesty when trading and never had any complaint from any member i traded with since I registered here 5 years ago. I have, inclusively, helped out members in several ways, be it helping them completing their Pokedex, giving them a particular rare Pokemon that I happened had to spare, without asking for anything in return, just for the pleasure to help. If needed, I'm positive these people will confirm what I'm saying.

Me and R'linho where suppose to trade for a Shiny Shellder but I traded it someone else because he would never pm me. (as in he didnt pm me for 6 or 7 days l8r so I assumed he canceled) i gave shiny shellder to someone else today we just traded and I said it was traded away is kyurem ok? He replied with "Yeah, i would be happy with Kyurem" When we went into the trade room I put up KYUREM GOTHORITA EVENT and DW AERODACTYL. I supposed he would pick kyurem yet he picked gothorita, So i said ok then and we traded after it he put up another togepi and I quit because I did not want another togpei. he pm'ed me and said what happend to kyurem, i said u chose gothorita, and he said that he wanted to give another togepi for kyurem and I said I dont want another togepi. BUT we can trade on the weekend if u want to give me gothorita back for Kyurem, yet he didnt care and just put me on the blacklist. I did not do anything and even said for kyurem. Yeah yeah yeah Kyurem for togepi fail but kyurem was just a gift and I need the togepi. Not only did i give him a good deal, but he just went and put me on the blacklist. So I am just saying dont be talking about me in a bad way when you have not heard my side of the story. I will still give him kyurem, but he decided to do something else.
Bro, we can still trade I dont care about Kyurem I only have 6 badges Kyurem was a gift, we can trade for kyurem and u can give me back gothorita but no need to put me on the blacklist when I offered especially a Bad trade against me when I get a common togepi and U get a event and Kyurem. Not cool, bro

Here are the screenshots of the PMs he sent me yesterday:
It seems that he's not unavailable to trade for a week all of the sudden...
How should I proceed now? I'd prefer a time for the trade to be set here, preferably by you, as he clearly can't be trusted.
Just to add, replying to his post, that the fact that I did not reply for 6 or 7 days later is false, and I'm hoping you can access our history of exchanged messages to verify that.
Also, if he changed his mind and only wanted to trade for one Togepi, why would he offer more than the Kyurem in the Wi-fi room? If his idea was to trade the Kyurem for the Togepi, then he would had made available only the Kyurem and nothing else.
Still, my main concern remains: he currently has posts on trade threads stating he's looking for other Pokemon and I'm afraid he might do this again to other people.
I'll wait for your instruction on how to proceed with the trade.
Thank you.

Pinkie Pie: Dead Pool
Twilight: Ichigo
Fluttershy: Dante from Devil May Cry
Applejack: Ken Masters from Street Fighter?
Rarity: ... I know I know the armor/rose get up is from but it's slepted my mind
Rainbow Dash: This one I'm not sure of
I'm loving all the randomness in this comic. It's turning out great! - June 3, 2011 at 5:08 PM
It's either Dante or Vash the Stampede.... not sure tho. She doesn't really have the Vash hair tho, so probably Dante.
- June 3, 2011 at 5:09 PM

I wanna say the force fields Celestia uses to protect herself from is an Neon Genesis Evangleon reference of the AT field as well.
I also ment "Slipped" my mind... - June 3, 2011 at 5:10 PM

Rainbow Dash is Ms Marvel, not Flash... I was kinda hoping for flash.
- June 3, 2011 at 5:13 PM

Dash: Mrs. Marvel
AJ: Ken Masters
Fluttershy: Dante
Rarity: ....oh please tell me she's not a Pretty Marine. - June 3, 2011 at 5:14 PM
- Sssonic said...
So Fluttershy = Dante from "Devil May Cry"
Rainbow Dash = Ms. Marvel from Marvel Comics
Pinkie Pie = Deadpool from Marvel Comics
Twilight Sparkle = Ichigo Kurosaki from "Bleach"
Applejack = Ken Masters from "Street Fighter"
Rarity, though, stumps me. I'd have to guess it's a "Saint Seiya" character, but I don't know "Seiya" well enough to say which one... - June 3, 2011 at 5:15 PM

Can somepony please explain to me why Pinkie Pool has her voice, her radio and something random talking?

Fluttershy is Dante? *Actually WANTS to play the DMC series now...* Oh, Celestia's dead... O.O
- June 3, 2011 at 5:19 PM
Impressive so...
Fluttershy is Dante
Rainbow dash is Miss Marvel
Pinkie is deadpool
Applejack is Ken from street fighter
and Rarity is Pisces from Saint Seiya
So epic! - June 3, 2011 at 5:19 PM
@Pseudo Faux
Deadpool talks to himself in the comics, and often breaks the fourth wall. - June 3, 2011 at 5:22 PM
I've been wondering, Does Pinkie pie have healing Factor or not?
- June 3, 2011 at 5:24 PM
Wasn't Fluttershy being dragged off by the guards in comic 1?
- June 3, 2011 at 5:27 PM

Rarity's armour kind of reminds me of King Cailan from Dragon Age.

I like where this is going, madmax sure does know her manga. I haven't even heard of half of these characters (the japanese ones that is)

@Anonymous at 5:27
yes fluttershy was being draged off but that doesn't mean she didn't come back. - June 3, 2011 at 6:08 PM
Madmax just took every awesome anime, commic and game trope and put it in this comic. Somebody make this into a fic now!
- June 3, 2011 at 6:09 PM
Rainbow Dash is unquestionably Miss marvel. Black Adam has a black shirt with a lighting bolt on it as well, but the eye cover and red Sash are Miss Marvel.
- June 3, 2011 at 6:30 PM
Maybe I don't remember well, but... wasn't Pisces a bad guy? As in "Kill the heroes, because" bad?
- June 3, 2011 at 6:31 PM
Dash is definitely Ms Marvel not Black Adam. The belt & Skimpy outfit is a dead giveaway
- June 3, 2011 at 6:36 PM
Ha ha, I thought Rarity was Lord Big Star from Disgaea 3 for a sec!
- June 3, 2011 at 6:39 PM
Madmax has risen to a level of awesomeness so epic that it hasn't even been named yet.
I think Rariry is either a character from Saint Seiya or that boss from the Fatal Fury series called Krauser, though I'm also reminded of Athena in armor mode. - June 3, 2011 at 6:45 PM
Lol obvious rarity is Pisces Aphrodite from saint seiya, the armor is the same (look here for armor pic http://images.wikia.com/saintseiya/images/2/28/Gold_-_Pisces_Aphrodite_1.jpg ), so awesome xD
- June 3, 2011 at 6:59 PM
Not only does Madmax suck at english, she's also a huge fucking weeaboo... Really? This is retarded.
- June 3, 2011 at 7:30 PM
Rarity is wearing the Pisces Gold Cloth from Saint Seiya. This, in my opinion, shows us that Madmax is either latin-american or european (Saint Seiya was huge in those two zones). This also explains his/her not-quite-perfect English.

- DemonKaiten said...
i thought for a second rarity was in protoss zealot armor... would be cooler if she was...
- June 3, 2011 at 8:02 PM
To the guy saying Pisces Gold Saint was a bad guy.
He was in the classic series, set in the present and where the Pisces Gold Saint is a man named Aphrodite.
But in the new series, The Lost Canvas, set in the past, Albafika the Pisces Gold Saint is certainly a good guy. One well known for his beauty and fabulousness as well as rightheousness. - June 3, 2011 at 8:16 PM

Let me clear it up for you, then. Celestia is now Officially Fucked.
- June 3, 2011 at 8:46 PM
Rarity is that faggot prince from Lost Odyssey, who proves to be an absolutely redundant character in your party, and only gets any sort of relevance combat-wise when the party splits.

Rainbow Dash as Ms. Marvel? I was expecting her to turn up as a Marvel character, but I was betting on her as Captain America.
I like the fact that Fluttershy, Applejack and Pinkie pie are dressed as my Marvel vs Capcom 3 team. I just want the fight to end with Spike shouting "TAG TEAM HYPER COMBO KO" or something like that. - June 4, 2011 at 6:15 AM
Celestia must unleash the most power weapon ever. Set loose the Derpy Hulk!

Not sure if it has been noted, But in comic 2 Twilight has a scar ofer her left eye. Looks like the prince Zuko scar. Then in comic 3 it is gone.
Awesome none the less. - June 8, 2011 at 4:08 AM
Upon closer inspection one can see that the 'scar' is infact a mask.
- June 8, 2011 at 4:11 AM
Actually, guys, Rarity is dressed as the golden Knight of Pisces, from Saint Seiya. Really, that rose and that golden armor are a most certain giveaway!
- June 8, 2011 at 8:44 PM
Clever. I like how in part 4 the artist made use of the fact that we only ever see ONE of Celestia's eyes.
- June 9, 2011 at 10:10 PM
And with comic #4, MadMax shifts us from goofy to epic. EXCELLENT.
- June 9, 2011 at 10:22 PM
wasn't the left eye the one that turned into sharingan in the 1st comic?
Now is perfectly normal and crying.
Where is my precious continuity????? - June 9, 2011 at 10:26 PM

Oooooooooooooooh gawd...
This is gettin' gooooooooooooooooooood...
I think I just wet myself...
Yup. Definitely wet myself. - June 9, 2011 at 10:27 PM
- Dr. Derpenstien, PHD said...
Also I think I can explain that...
The "real" Celestia has finally gotten some control over whatever it is that is possessing her (will probably something funny or witty), and so she is starting to retake over. But now we see that Evil Celestia uses RELEASE RESTRAINT, and is probably going to take some malicious form, or perform some HYPER COMBO, and epic fight will ensue... At least... That's what I'M hoping for :X
But that's where I believe you "continuity" is. - June 9, 2011 at 10:33 PM

Why does Fluttershy scream Ragna the Bloodedge in that outfit?

WTF?! Dont tell me she's been given voices in her head? that's crap from daniel way, worst deadpool author ever.

Haha, I love the Deadpool/Pinkie combo. My favorite pony & my favorite Marvel character!
- June 9, 2011 at 10:42 PM
No as others have said before me she's Ms. Marvel (from.... well marvel) - June 9, 2011 at 11:18 PM
I know this isn't necessarily meant to be taken seriously, and I know it's only one panel, but the reveal of the crying eye actually kinda struck me. Sort of a less is more and actually unexpected kind of moment, thing... I don't know, maybe I'm just being silly, it just seems to draw me in.

Here I was hoping Night Mare was the one to tell Twichigo andTrollestia was holding Luna captive.
We can always assume she has a split-personality with a physical manifestation for each. - June 10, 2011 at 2:56 AM
@Twilight Sparkle Because they both wear the same freaking red long-cotes, seriously the only way to tell the difference in cosplay is with the sword.
- June 10, 2011 at 4:24 AM
Rarity is the useless prince from Lost Odyssey. The only time he comes *close* to being useful is during party splits.

rarity's armor looks like something a protoss would wear, but that doesn't explain the rose...

at #3 comic:
fluttershy as dante (devil may cry), rainbowdash as ms. marvel (marvel comics),twilight as ichigo (bleach), applejack as ken (street fighter), rarity as Piscis gold saint (saint seiya), and ofcourse pinkiepie as deadpool (marvel comics - June 11, 2011 at 9:12 PM
- Dr. Dice said...
Awesome comic! I guess Pisces works for rarity mostly because of the obsession with beauty... as for whoever questioned if he was a bad guy, yes, in the Sanctuary Arc he is, but by Hades he has returned to serve Athena, although he and Cancer had to be sacrificed as "baddies" to keep the pretense and have Hade's flunkies trust the Golds.
At any rate... if between all of them they can't stop them (and let's face it the original crew put together would stop just about anything) no-one can! - June 11, 2011 at 9:27 PM

Celestia has at least four different references in her now.
"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?" -Gurren Lagann
AT Field - Evangelion
Sharingan Eye - Naruto
Prominence - Final Fantasy Tactics. - June 17, 2011 at 1:54 PM
I don't get any of the references, but it's still awesome.

I love Madmax's comics, she's been a huge inspiration in the past couple months to get me back into drawing comics like I used to. Keep on drawing, they look awesome, the newest one especially, Danteshy is so awesome!

Flutter may shy? Whoever end up making this more than a comic, take my money ALL OF IT.
I think I would enjoy a badass, sword swinging, jerk fluttershy instead of Flutter Raeg when she gets mad. That's just me though. - June 17, 2011 at 2:30 PM

Can ponies breathe in space? also, why are they suddenly in space?
these questions do not make the comic any less of an epic-fest though. - June 17, 2011 at 3:36 PM

Clearly I'm the friend. The question is of ho she'll portray me, or rather, who she'll cross me as.
- June 17, 2011 at 3:50 PM
The references in this comic, omg, so many xD
Pinkie Pool, Twichigo, Mrs.Marvel Dash, AppleKen DanteShy, Gurren Laggan ref, Sharingan, AT fields, Prominence? did you play L2 MadMax? Also 3rd page 1sr panel Aizen Celestia xD; and now what? Sephiroth Celestia using Super Nova?? The amount of lol it too high XD
All my stars are belong to this!
(Still can't figure out that Rarity ref with the golden armor and the rose tho :P) - June 17, 2011 at 3:54 PM
- undead431 said...
Let's think... Goku? lol
Hmm... Kratos?
or... I dunno :( - June 17, 2011 at 3:57 PM
Considering Fluttershy=Dante I'm going to say that's not a FMA reference, but instead using Pandora a magical gun capable of 666 different forms (well only 7 or so in game but still)
(http://devilmaycry.wikia.com/wiki/Pandora) - June 17, 2011 at 4:34 PM

oh shiiiiiit pandora box :D danteshy for the win :3 again as much weebo this is getting, its amazing

@Aaron Wright
devil me cry, dante's pandora shape shifting gun with 666 forms its an awesome weapon :3 - June 17, 2011 at 4:49 PM
Ah Pandora. Easily the best weapon in the Devil May Cry series. I only wish it had more usable forms.
- June 17, 2011 at 5:09 PM
Thank God for Pandora's Box, which when opened released all evil into creation and then became a shape-shifting gun...wait that came out wrong.
- June 17, 2011 at 7:48 PM
I really need to watch all the show this comic references.
Somepony got a list of them? - June 17, 2011 at 8:44 PM
O FOR F***'S SAKE THERE'S GOT TO BE A FANFIC FOR Fluttershy as Dante NOW!!
- June 17, 2011 at 11:41 PM
i prefer Danteshy...
anyways, seems like she has the pandora box. which means this is the older dante from dmc4. which means i wanna see her use the lucifer. complete with a rose in her mouth...
(i cant imagine her swinging the rebellion anyway) - June 18, 2011 at 3:27 PM
OK, Celestia usin sharingan + AT-field and the ¿Sefiroth supernova (you know, the super-long attack that make big the sun because an meteor strike (pluto,jupiter saturn, mercury...and..I forget one)?
and Pisis fron SaintSeiya is "good" in Hades-saga (you know if you see the lament wall chapter) - June 18, 2011 at 6:33 PM
Part four wins with the reference to Gurren Lagann. "If you don't care, why are you crying?"
I loved that line in the original. It's still awesome. - June 21, 2011 at 1:26 AM
Okay, all of these crossovers stuffed into one neat MLP package!?
I think my brain exploded more than twice. - June 24, 2011 at 5:07 PM
To let you know guys that Madmax will be at rest for a while as of June the 19th:-(

No one as Guts from Berserk?
I am EXTREMELY disappointed. - August 7, 2011 at 5:53 AM

Alrighty there fluts, you truly are kickass. Where before I reacted like AJ, I understand this now.
however, that Exodia arm thats reaching up for you doesn't seem that threatened by RBD's ridiculous costume, despite the fact she apparently taught you that shit.
I love the death out of these comics... so freaking random, but seriously, author, you need to post an explanation eventually. - September 2, 2011 at 10:08 PM

Hey guys! Guess what?
EPISODE 21 IS NOW UP! EPISODE 21 - Striaton City Freezes Over (Happy Birthday Omen!)
Starting with the News, Justin, Robert, Ren and Omen encounter Ampharos, Talk about Black 2 and White 2, tour Cerulean City, and finally, end the epsiode. Omen's birthday, May 10th, is the day the episode is dropped, so, Happy Birthday!
Also, there are some updates on this episode about our tournament. (:

* Luxray, is my claim.
StriatonRadio would like to unveil it's newest project; The StriatonTimes!
The StriatonTimes is a Webzine, where the hosts of the podcast will write articles and update them weekly. There are currently four articles that are written; a.) Editor's Memo, where a host of the podcast will give you some insight to their lives, b.) Trainer Column, where we will post competitive tips, advice, and guides to help you grow as a Trainer, c.) Rare Candy, where we will talk about other, miscellaneous Pokemon topics, and finally, d.) Teachy TV, where we will start writing our reviews for the anime.
So give it a look! Check it out, and we hope you will enjoy!

* Luxray, is my claim.
I know my team was in one of them (which was nice), but I can't find it. It was one of the episodes between 7-14, can you link those if they're in a different place?
EDIT: Just realised that you NACHOS!!, just with a name change .-.
Here you go! (:
And the episode link is right here: http://striatonradio2.podomatic.com/...10_44_26-08_00

Episode 22 IS UP!!!
Also, if you're participating in the StriatonChallenge, you'll want to listen to this episode.
* Luxray, is my claim.
Episode 23 is NOW LIVE!!
Justin says 22, but he means 23.
Justin, Robert, and David (who finally comes back!) go back to the older way of recording, implementing the newer changes of the podcast.
After going through some news, the trio run into Arcanine during the Random Encounter, read Fan Mail, and go over the latest episode of the anime.
And yes, Kelly is a 'he'.
* Luxray, is my claim.
WOW! I've seen you have put quite an effort in doing the website! It must really be advertised, it's awesome! Keep it up!
Yes, I discovered the GB Sounds glitch! -> video here
My title (very confusing, isn't it?) means "I caught 4 legendaries with a pokeball!"(yep, the normal ones! Legit!)
I can easily read Unown and you can't! Figure out this: _ _ _ _

Justin, Robert, and David start the episode off with Ren, Omen, and a special guest Kelly! They talk about news, Ditto, and a bunch of spoilers from Black 2 and White 2. It is advised to only listen up to Random Encounter if you do not want spoilers. There aren't any plot spoilers, though, if you are willing.
* Luxray, is my claim.
Hey guys!

No Justin this episode! He's in the closet!
Robert leads the group of David, Kristina, and Omen this time around. They Random Encounter Lucario, talk about the weather, check out Phenac City on the PokeNav, and go over the latest episode of the anime. Lots of bad segues this episode.

David and Robert, joined by Ren and Omen, tackle this episode, with Justin joining them in spirit (and show notes).
After running off the News (where Justin mistypes and calls the Seniors TCG Champion American when he's actually Canadian Chase Moloney), take on Ludicolo in Random Encounter (where Omen sings), express their happiness on the Physical/Special Split in the Lab Report, explore Pyrite Town in PokeNav & discuss the current episode in the anime. To top it off, they talk about their exploits in Pokemon, Justin's overbearing need to help everyone with their games, and Robert's newfound love of Stunfisk.

Brandon is not enrolled at MUW and was reportedly an acquaintance of the victim.
He was released on a $3,500 bond late Monday afternoon.
It was unclear whether Brandon has an attorney.

Lionel Messi is just two goals behind Diego Maradona's international total of 34 after guiding Argentina ever closer to qualifying for next year's World Cup in Brazil.
The four-time World Player of the Year netted from the penalty spot as Argentina eased to a 3-0 win over Venezuela as it remained four points clear at the top of the South American group.
Real Madrid's Gonzalo Higuain scored twice to take him to 10 goals for the qualifying campaign, but it was Messi who stole the show once again.
The 25-year-old has repeatedly vowed to win the one prize to have eluded him so far in his astonishing career- the World Cup.
Not since 1986 when Maradona led Argentina to glory has the country won the tournament -- a statistic Messi is desperate change.
After an incredible 2012 where he scored 91 goals for club and country, surpassing the previous record of 85 by Germany's Gerd Muller, Messi looks set to break new ground once again.
This season alone he has scored 61 goals in 51 matches for club and country with 55 of those coming in 43 matches for Barcelona and six in eight appearances for Argentina.
Messi still has a way to go until he passes Gabriel Batistuta, who holds Argentina's all-time record with 56 goals from 78 matches.
But his priority is success in Brazil next year -- a target which is looking eminently possible.
"We have a forward line that can be considered among the best in the world," Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella told reporters.


text: phorum - Parenting - Re: Needing info Parenting New Topic | Go to Top | Go to Topic | Search Newer Topic | Older Topic Needing info Author: Christina Date: 26-08-10 16:41 Hello everyone I am new to this but was referred here and told you guys are awesome with info! I have a 3.5 yo young man, turning 4 in December, who is quite simply, amazing! He is number 4 of 5 for me, and the questions he is asking me at the moment are making me google answers for him! He was talking fluently at age 2, and when I say fluently, I mean you could hold a conversation with him. The plunket nurse at his 2yo check told me she had never, in her 30 years of nursing, seen a 2 yo boy who could talk like him! His maths skills are amazing considering his age, addition and subtraction are nothing to him. this morning on the way to daycare, he was explaining to me the difference between evergreen and deciduous - and yes he could even pronounce it! - trees. Yesterday morning, he was asking about power pylons and how the power gets in the wires to get to our tv. And last night he explained to his 2 yo brother (who is deaf nonetheless!) and 10 yo sister where bubbles went when they evaporated! Am I being an overawed parent here, or is there something "different" about my little man? I've spoken to daycare, and whilst they concur with the amazing questions he asks, they refuse to do any extension with him in the "ready for school" group for maths, etc, as they are concerned he won't develop correct social skills. I would appreciate any information/suggestions/etc from anyone. Thanks Chris Reply To This Message Re: Needing info Author: Anon Date: 27-08-10 09:14 Hi Christina Welcome to the forum. Research suggests that parents who think their child is gifted are usually right. I forget the details but IIRC it's something like 85% of the time - someone may correct me on that. And although sometimes it's awfully hard to know what is 'normal' development for a child - I'm guessing a plunket nurse with 30 years experience has a fair idea of 'normal' verbal skills in a 2yo. Sounds like he might be gifted. What are his siblings like? Siblings are supposed to be close in iq but of course giftedness manifests itself in different ways. Have a browse around this forum you'll pick up lots of information. Also take a look at www.hoagiesgifted.org - this is another great starting place. As for daycare - is your son happy there? One issue you'll want to consider is testing. Parents of gifted children have different views on whether to test. For us, we tested when we realised something was very 'different' after our elder child started school and they were counting and identifying letters whereas he could add, subtract, do simple multiplication and division, and read. Testing answered a lot of questions for us. It sounds as if you know how to meet his needs at home, with the conversations you've been having, and helping him find answers. (Perhaps he can tell me how the power gets to our tv - I still don't get that!). You might also want to consider contacting a local group of the NZAGC - you may find "like minds" and activities for your son, and, support and information for you. I love how you describe your son as "quite simply, amazing!" For me, this forum is one of the few places where we can express things like that without people getting offended.... :-) good luck Reply To This Message Re: Needing info Author: Another anonymous.. Date: 27-08-10 15:56 This reminds me of an argument my then 2 and then 3 year old had about whether or not fruit trees were deciduous or a different thing altogether, my 2 year old won out with that they were deciduous because they lost their leaves, my 3 year old thought they were flowering trees and didn't fit in with the two categories but were one of their own. It was pretty amazing, and they both had great reasons for their side of the argument. To be honest I am still not sure what is correct haha. Miss 2 (at the time) would be in the car saying ''deciduous'', ''deciduous'', ''evergreen'' pointing at the different trees haha, it was cute but also a little scary! My daughters are both gifted. Your son sounds amazing and very advanced for his age (and to me he sounds very similar to my daughters) and very lucky to have an on to it mum :) My suggestion to you would be to just keep going with him on his interests and his level, don't look at age ranges of toys and books (my miss 4's favourite toy is a microscope aimed at age 8) but check they are at his interest level. Let him lead you and you be there to guide his learning at this stage. I agree with Anon above, testing can be very helpful if not for anything but to reassure you that you aren't just another doting parent and to confirm (from a professional) what you already know about your son. Good luck. Reply To This Message Re: Needing info Author: Linda Date: 27-08-10 22:26 I concur with above. Library books will be a sanity saver. Formal extension groups at kindy are not always a good option as although the expectations are at a higher age level the thinking/questioning is not always deeper or faster there. If the people he interacts with engage him at his level and he keeps questioning then you're on the right track. Reply To This Message Re: Needing info Author: TiredMum Date: 27-08-10 22:40 I remember when DS was 3 he asked why when we have 2 eyes, can we only see one picture in our brain? He's now 10 and finishing Year 7! Arm yourself with google, encyclopaedias, lots of patience and be ready to learn too. Lots, and lots, and lots.....

Simplest strategy game ever, the box says, and it is probably true. The game comes with 12 cute little stackable faux cuneiform tablets in four colors, and unfortunately I can't tell you much more than that because then you could probably just play the game with poker chips and then the publisher would be angry at me for making them lose money. If you are familiar with combinatorial game theory, I can tell you that this is a two-player perfect-information impartial game that I am absolutely confident would fall to some basic Sprague-Grundy analysis. On the other hand, if you are not familiar with combinatorial game theory, you'll probably find this a pretty fun game to spend a few minutes on. Addendum: I just wrote a program that solved the game completely. It took about 40 minutes to write. The game is a second-player win. Return to Introduction |

The right side of the law
Stephen Kuncewicz outlines the opportunities and risks associated with the use of Web 2.0 and social media tools
Assuming that the majority of the readers of this publication will be in the business sector, then an examination of the opportunities and risks of either doing business or promoting the goods or services which they supply in the online and Web 2.0 environment seems like a logical place to start.
The explosion in commercial use of the internet gave birth to a whole new way of doing business: e-commerce. The umbrella term refers to any kind of commercial activity carried out using electronic methods. We have now moved way past the original tentative steps taken in this arena which saw the rise to prominence of online retailers such as Amazon and auction sites such as eBay, through well-designed and reliable websites which prided themselves on secure payment technology, to the first real iterations of m-commerce over mobile platforms and the ability to purchase goods and services from a mobile phone with confidence that you will actually receive them.
The advent of new technology such as the iPad and the realisation of the promise of internet, everywhere are only likely to accelerate the move towards e-commerce becoming an even larger part of our lives. Whilst there will always be room for commerce in the real-world environment, research suggests that £5.3bn was spent online by UK consumers in November 20091 and that the majority of British adults now shop online, with 76 per cent of the country having internet access.2
Businesses now have access to a number of new opportunities as a result of the rise of e-commerce, including:
Access to a huge new customer base;
Lowering overheads, rationalising a presence in physical premises and the ability to radically restructure their operation (whether or not by choice, as seen in the demise of Woolworths in 2009);
Access to cost savings (both in terms of staff costs and in distribution if working in the software or entertainment industry); and
Access to emerging marketing channels via the use of Bluetooth technology, viral campaigns and social networks.
The risks are perhaps a little less obvious. Placing a brand online means that it will become open for comment as well as misuse due to the truly open nature of Web 2.0 and social media technology. Whereas previously a brand message was delivered by a relatively small number of marketers to a much larger audience, that audience can and will make their feelings known in the event that a brand is not living up to its values online. As much as the image of a business and the use of new strategies may allow it to reach a new audience, if the nuts and bolts operation does not live up to expectation, then stakeholders (whether customers or not) will make their opinion known to their own audience, with bad commentary having the potential to travel very quickly.
Whilst researching this article, I came across a number of cautionary tales of businesses experiencing problems after taking their operations online. The best example I found in terms of risk versus reward in terms of spending time on strategy and using Web 2.0 technology to mitigate bad publicity was that of Dell, worldwide suppliers of computer equipment. This example is referred to later against a different backdrop, so please excuse the slight duplication.
The conversation thats happening without you
Dell Inc. is one of the largest technology companies in the world, holding the third largest market share of the PC market and is listed at number 38 in the 2010 Fortune 500.3 Fortune magazine describes the company as the fifth most admired in its industry. But it wasnt always this way.
For a company which has become well-known and highly admired for its approach to e-commerce, Dells standing in the online community reached an all-time low in 2005 when American journalist Jeff Jarvis, author of the blog BuzzMachine wrote a post simply entitled Dell lies. Dell Sucks.4 Posts like this are nothing new in the online world, but Jarvis had a much more specific intention than venting his spleen. As Google or any other search engine can be used to measure exactly how badly any particular brand is thought of by using the right search terms, Jarvis wanted to alert others to his experience of buying a computer from Dell which he referred to as a lemon.
The post was noticed by a number of other bloggers and before long, Jarvis comment section was replete with similar tales of what he described as Dell Hell. Even after his machine was repaired, his experience of the company continued to be negative, leading to him several more posts in an unsuccessful attempt to engage Dell in conversation on a public forum and eventually to him writing an open letter to the companys CEO, Michael Dell, suggesting that he read blogs, write blogs, ask customers for guidance and join the conversation your customers are having without you.5
The post echoed around the web, turning into what Mediapost described as Bloggers complaint becomes viral nightmare, functioning as an example of how mainstream corporations, even tech-savvy ones like Dell, still havent figured out how to deal with consumer complaints on the web.6 Eventually, Jarvis post became the third most linked-to post on the blogosphere during one week in 2005. Sharing experiences online was only then starting to become a way of airing discontent with a business, and Dell responded in the only way that it could.
In April 2006, Dell began to address the problem by engaging with several bloggers and eventually starting its own blog, Direct2Dell. Tellingly, the blog was staffed by real people with credible approaches to problem solving, which led to a sense that comments were not only being heard but that they may actually have some influence. This theory was proven in February 2007 when Dell launched the website www.ideastorm.com to crowdsource opinion and strategy from its customers. Jarvis follow-up piece in Business Week, entitled Dell Learns To Listen7, was much more complimentary and followed a day spent with the company shortly before it was written.
Although Jarvis opinion of Dell eventually softened, his advice to Dell in his open letter to Michael Dell provides useful advice for all businesses moving into the online market:
Read blogs Even if you dont like or agree with the content, the chances are that it will be of use to you.
Talk with your consumers Often, engaging with the blogosphere is the only way to repair a broken reputation.
Blog Being part of the conversation only adds to your credibility.
Its tempting to see bloggers who rail against the inadequacies of the suppliers of electronics as an isolated section of the market and to argue that they more than most will spend time in making their point on a blog, with the wider market not being engaged enough with social media to make a real dent in any other reputations.
Wrong. There have been various other examples of social media and Web 2.0 technology being used to name and shame other well-known businesses including Sony (as a result of an allegedly fan-made viral video promoting the PSP which turned out be the product of an online marketing company another technology business whose users may be more au fait with taking to the social universe to voice their discontent.
However, the issue was more recently brought home to British stationery retailer Paperchase. The retail giant spent a very contentious 24 hours in February 2010 defending itself against allegations of plagiarism from artist Hidden Eloise after news of their dispute broke on the social network Twitter.
Eloise claimed that her design He Says He Can Hear The Forest Whisper was stolen and badly traced onto bags, notebooks and albums by Paperchase, who categorically denied any deliberate copying of her work, having purchased the artwork in question from what they described as a well known central London design studio8 amongst a number of others.
News of Eloises claims spread across the web like wildfire after a blog post which aired her frustration with not only the national chain but also the legal system, stating that it was too expensive to even start talking with lawyers and the legal fees could break anyone with non-corporate pockets. The post was subsequently picked up by noted English science fiction author Neil Gaiman on Twitter and before long vitriolic commentary from other users forced Paperchase to issue a public statement as well as starting up its own account on Twitter for the first time to manage the fall-out. The day ended with the products in dispute being withdrawn from sale whilst the issue was investigated for a second time.
Its easy to see this incident as a cautionary tale and to rally behind the artist against a retail giant, but the reality is that cases like this are never as straightforward as they appear. In the age of real-time commentary over social networks, the finer details of a dispute can be distorted beyond recognition with alarming speed.
Paperchase was accused of copyright infringement by reproducing Eloises work without permission. This kind of allegation is a fairly common issue to deal with for retailers who buy in designs or artwork from third parties and in this case was in any event denied.
However, as ownership of copyright can only normally be proven through producing evidence of who actually created the material and when, there is always a risk in this kind of transaction that a disgruntled creator may come out of the woodwork and create a huge public relations issue.
Twitter is becoming very well-known as an easy method of both promoting uninhibited commentary on major issues on one hand, but also a method of generating a significant amount of negative commentary very quickly especially when those making the comments are public figures forming part of the Twitterati such as Stephen Fry or Neil Gaiman.
What Paperchase ended up having to deal with was a double-sided issue an allegation of copyright infringement and also an exercise in reputation management. The latter was addressed very quickly by entering the discussion on Twitter through Paperchases own newly-minted Twitter account.
Given that the copyright infringement was been very firmly denied, Paperchase could have dealt with the issue by taking legal action against Eloise in the form of a trade libel claim on the basis that their products had been disparaged in a manner which reflects negatively upon their manufacturer.
Whatever the case, Eloises comments became an issue which Paperchase was forced to deal with, although it did make the point that it thought that it had done so in correspondence with Eloise in November 2009. It did seem a little opportunistic that, if this was the case, the allegations were raised again. The explanation may be in Eloises own claim that she couldnt afford lawyers to deal with the dispute. Ironically, a lawyer would probably have told her to check her facts very carefully before making allegations of copyright infringement against a major retailer on a very public forum which could conceivably lead to a very large claim for damages in the event that she was wrong. To Paperchases credit, however, it joined the conversation rather than trying to strangle it.
In the words of Jeff Jarvis: Now consumers dont just consume. We spit back. We have our own printing presses.9
Images on websites
Similarly, creating a website as a shop front for your business can in itself lead to other risks besides reputation management. The creation of a website leads inevitably to the creation of content to populate it, which will include text, logos, other imagery, photographs and even software. If that content is worth protecting in the first place, then it may well be worth copying.
Many start-up and existing businesses will set aside at least some of their budget to retain a third-party marketing or web design agency to start establishing a presence on the web, if for no other reason than to allow search engines to pick them up when users look for a certain service in a certain area.
One example is a search for removals in Manchester or London, both of which are home to offices of J.A. Coles, a removals and transport contractor which was sued during 2009 by worldwide digital image providers Getty Images for copyright infringement after the use of a photograph on the J.A. Coles website which was licensed to Getty for use by a Canadian photographer.
The claim was issued in the High Court and sought damages for, amongst other heads of claim, payment of the commercial royalty for use of the image, compensation for the costs spent in uncovering the unauthorised use and loss of credibility.
Whilst this kind of case is nothing new, its a timely reminder of how even fairly anodyne imagery is protected by copyright provided that the basic requirements to allow copyright to subsist are met, and depending on how that copyright can be used to generate income and how far businesses will go to ensure that any such income continues to be generated.
Under English law, copyright in a photograph will always belong to the photographer in question unless that photographer has made other arrangements or takes it as part of his duties as an employee. Being the owner of that copyright allows the restraint of third parties from copying or using the image without permission, subject to a number of very limited exceptions. This is how professional photographers continue to generate an income.
In this case, the photographer licensed the photograph to Getty, a huge worldwide image bank. Getty will, at any time, have hundreds of thousands of images under license from their photographers, ranging from celebrities or stock pictures which will often appear in marketing materials, such as businessmen shaking hands, a cup of coffee on a boardroom table and so on. Getty will then use its massive resources to license the images for use by third-party customers and pay a royalty to the original photographer.
Licensing has become a very big and lucrative business for Getty as more and more businesses look to develop their brands through websites and often dont have the time or skill to produce professional imagery of their own. Of course, if an image is simply cut and pasted from the web and used on another website, then Gettys and the photographers revenues streams are going to be abruptly severed.
Getty has a very strict policy on the use of its imagery without a licence or permission and employs a number of in-house lawyers to take action against any infringers. Usually, cases dont go any further than a stern letter and a payment of the appropriate royalty (which is what the Court would award in damages), but here Getty was determined to make an example of J.A. Coles as a deterrent to other businesses contemplating taking a similar short cut, eventually leading to an out-of-court settlement.
These are not the only risks. Although the internet represents an open system of communication which is free from proprietary control it is not, despite major advances in software, secure.
Hackers may look to access a business computer system with a view to disrupting its operations, defrauding its customers, theft or alternatively defacing or altering the contents of a website. Similarly, websites and entire systems can be infected by an increasing number of viruses and confidential e-mails can be intercepted, leading to the theft of sensitive data and potential exposure to sanctions under the Data Protection Act 1998.
These are more IT-based risks than this publication is intended to cover, but their inclusion in this brief overview is for a very good reason. Taking a business online is to lay it bare in many different respects. Entering into that environment with your eyes open from an operational, legal and reputation perspective is essential, but the rewards and opportunities in doing so can in some cases far outweigh the risks. Ask Michael Dell.

December 21, 2012 has been speculated for years, but what does the Bible say about it? Now readers can find out what God says, in His own words, about the future at http://PlanBible.com

What Prophecy in the Bible Says about December 21, 2012
PlanBible.com is a unique adaptation of the Bible, organizing the Bible chronologically, providing each passage that is relevant to a biblical story in a single place, rather than spread throughout 66 books. The chronology is not just for the past, it continues into the future.
The Plan is God's own words, demonstrating that the "end of the world" is really the beginning for believers, which is the future time when many prophecies will be fulfilled. The passages that reveal our future to us through the 2,500 prophetic verses that have yet to be fulfilled, supported by 2,000 prophetic verses that have already been declared and fulfilled.
The historical fact that Jesus Christ lived is unrefuted by historians and other religions, and every believer in Christianity, the evidence of His resurrection is also overwhelming and stands alone as proof of the event. Jesus predicted that He would be resurrected and His enemies even witnessed it. Jesus fulfilled prophecy in every stage of His life, from His birth to living in Nazareth, to His ministry in Israel, dying on a cross and beyond to His resurrection. If all of these evidences point to the validation of historical truth then we can rest assured that He will fulfill the prophecy of His return.
The impact of compiling all of the passages chronologically is awe-inspiring, providing a great tool for biblical study, understanding biblical history, and deepening one's faith. The Plan is a unique adaptation of the Bible that will increase your understanding of God's Word.

Dignity in Care
Dignity in Care is a national campaign that aims to create a care system where there is zero tolerance of abuse and disrespect of older people.
It is led by the Department of Health in partnership with many organisations that purchase or deliver care to older people to protect the interests of those using care services and their carers. Sir Michael Parkinson is the Ambassador.
The national campaign aims to:
- Win 'hearts and minds'
- Change the culture of care services
- Place a greater emphasis on improving the quality of care and the experience of people using services
These services include:
- NHS hospitals
- Community health services
- Care homes
- Home support services
Richmond upon Thames Council are in partnership with Richmond and Twickenham Primary Care Trust in the local campaign. The aim of the local campaign is to raise awareness of zero tolerance of abuse amongst all care providers and encourage older people to speak up when things aren't right.
We have set up a phone number and email address that older people, carers and care providers can call should they have any concerns relating to a care service or person providing care. We have produced postcards(pdf, 433KB) and posters(pdf, 411KB) to raise awareness and promote dignity in care.
The dignity challenge
High quality services that respect people's dignity should:
- Have a zero tolerance of all forms of abuse.
- Support people with the same respect you would want for yourself or a member of your family.
- Treat each person as an individual by offering a personalised service.
- Enable people to maintain the maximum possible level of independence, choice and control.
- Listen and support people to express their needs and wants.
- Respect people's right to privacy.
- Ensure people feel able to complain without fear of retribution.
- Engage with family members and carers as care partners.
- Assist people to maintain confidence and a positive self esteem.
- Act to alleviate people's loneliness and isolation.
For more information, visit the Dignity Campaign website.

text: The Show Catwalk Close up Front row Fashion Shows Spring/Summer 2012 Ready-To-Wear Balenciaga 29 September 2011 Jessica Bumpus THERE was drama before we even got to the clothes at Balenciaga this morning - at least four benches collapsed and as a result guests were told they had to stand for safety reasons (and Twitter went crazy). "It created quite the spirit of camaraderie," said Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman, noting the show – aside from the seating excitement – to be great and "quite unlike everything anyone else has done, which is exciting".This season Nicolas Ghesquiere – who has been at the creative helm of Balenciaga since 1997 - worked with beautiful printed shirts, broad shoulders on suede dresses and vests and high-waisted trousers made from different fabrics – so denim at the front and twill at the back. Legs were narrow on the trouser front and with belts woven through the waist, while mini shorts were cut high on the leg and worked to build up the boxier jacket shapes above.The thing with Balenciaga is that it's sometimes hard to describe exactly what you're seeing – the objects themselves are not necessarily obvious but they somehow make sense when you see them.It was graphic and futuristic at the beginning (with long pockets and panelled jackets of lilac, peach, claret and navy), and then softened later with longer skirts made up from patchwork fabric or dripping with stalactites of metallic fringing. It ended with graphically-cut tabards and wimple hats made from leather to give an ecclesiastical feel – apt given that the audience were all standing as if at a service.SEE THE BALENCIAGA SHOW ARCHIVE
