I am available for listening and trying to get you through this difficult time in your life............
Give us a chance to help you to move past your desperation.
Love, Light and Blessings,
Give me some time. I am trying to figure out how to erase my own footprint. I want to disappear and never have been also. I paid my dues. Did good work when I was with the church and never did anyone harm. Life for me still doesn't work, so as soon as I figure out how to wish away my being, I will let you know.
that's mean God give you life and you said no sorry i' don't want it you should say '' thanks God I'm in life the time other peoples fight to still in life but ......
Not as mean as what you just said. This girl needs compassion which you seem to be incapable of giving.
I said the exactly the same words to my (then) 3 year old sister when I was 6.
I am now 43 and repeat them every year.
Fortunately, she has the "gift of the gab" and has kept me alive for 37 years.
I can't wait until I get to 100...just to prove she is fallible.
Why do you feel that you have to give up on life so soon?...don't let whatever bad experience you're going through rob you of all the other good things in life..there's so much out there in this big wide world of ours..you just need to get out there and find what makes you happy. Give it a go!!..one day you'll look back and wonder why you ever felt the way you do now.
Don't give up:)........I've learnt that no matter how bad things are they will only get worst....no wait a minute!! that's not what I meant........I meant no matter how bad things are they aren't going to get better....ah wait wait.....ok here's what I meant......no matter how bad things are they aren't as bad as you think....that's it!!!
Wow! What do you say to that? Can with a few simple words expressed with concern from a stranger have some way of making the world seem right for the moment? I don't know you or even can begin to understand why you are feeling this way. I am being sincere that I want to and that you do matter to me.
I am sure that you have friends and loved ones that would miss you and even if you don't feel like that there are people that would miss you so much. What I am hearing is you are in pain of some sort and need help going through this tough time let people help you? You are not alone or the only one that has to carry life on your shoulders by yourself. Write a blog or a story and get this off your chest. Let us help with a little advice and comments. Most important is know that Life is often unfair and blind to everyone. It goes on and runs everyone over but we get up and chase it again with time. love.
take it easy. there is always a way out of everything. death is not gonna resolve anything. you just going to be the stupid girl that killed herself. theres always people that love you around. the little things in life is what makes it worth it. after the storm always comes a sunny day
Hmm, no, you think you do, there is much you can do with your life;)...since you dont explain more and that's not a criticism Angeleyes, just find a way to make it better, and get help:) if you really want to vent message me:)
The only constant in life is that it NEVER stays the same. Trust me. Your life will be different. And it will be different again and again and again and again. The secret is to wait out the bad times cause that time is destined to be past before you know it. Roll with it all and you will begin to enjoy the ebb and flow of life's movements. I know it sounds too simple, but its the truth.
I also want to end my life... Todays my last day
Are you still alive? Don't destroy your over longer harder life for this trivial one.
I want to end my life too
My husband Wants a divorce he took the children and I have no family no money no resourced. I have reached out to god to forgive me for my role but he refuses to be the man of god he use to be.

Gay businesses win in Charlotte Mag's 'Best of'
Published: May 18, 2011 in Blog
Charlotte Magazine recently released their 2011 Best of the Best. Gay-owned or gay-friendly businesses weren't excluded.
South Ends' Marigny won best dance club. The magazine writes: "With its abundance of lounges, bars, and a concert venue, South End's growing nightlife district had a void until Marigny Dance Club opened last year. It's a place where you can dance like nobody's watching. But at this popular gay nightclub people are watching: the dance floor fills up Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights, and this is a place to be seen. You don't come here to stand around—if the bass doesn't move you, the light show will leave you hypnotized."
In the Voters' Choice awards, Plaza-Midwood's Dish won in the Comfort Food category.
Dish and Marigny were just two from among dozens of LGBT-friendly or -popular restaurants, nightclubs, bars and other businesses listed in the magazine's 2011 awards.
Gay spots weren't immune to Charlotte's gag Worst of the Worst. Writer Sarah Crosland dishes on "Worst Joke by a Strip Club": "This was a close race. Uptown Cabaret's ads for the best wings … and breasts and thighs in town was a contender. And Twin Peeks was in the running with its punny name. But the "Meat our Dancers" joke up for months on Chasers' marquee takes the crown. "

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Motorists traveling on southbound I-27 over the next couple of months will see traffic reduced to one lane as the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) continues work on a project to upgrade the storm-water pump station at North Loop 289.
Beginning Wednesday, March 18, the two southbound right lanes and shoulder of I-27 at North Loop 289 will be closed to traffic as crews continue work to replace the existing drainage pipe, said Jeremy Dearing, P.E., TxDOT project engineer.
"The work is part of a $6.1 million project to upgrade storm-water pump station facilities along I-27 in Lubbock and Hale counties," Dearing said. "Over the next several months, crews will be replacing the concrete pipe that's located under the roadway with a concrete box," he said. "This will increase the drainage capacity of the storm-water pump facility."
The lane closures on northbound I-27, reduced to one lane of traffic in January, will also remain in place. The project is scheduled to be completed by summer 2009.

Brownback concedes his tax cuts will cause big problems
Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback this week finally conceded the truth: The income tax cuts that he signed into law after arch-conservative Republicans pushed them through the Legislature this year will blow a big hole in the state budget for at least the next two years.
As a result, Brownback likely will have to promote the extension of a sales tax increase on Kansans.
An increase? Let me explain.
The Legislature long ago decided that the current 6.3 percent rate would drop to 5.7 percent in mid-2013.
But now Brownback may have to keep the higher tax in place for, well, who knows how long.
As even fellow GOP supporters point out, this would be considered a tax increase. After all, Kansans have been told the last few years that the rates would go down to 5.7 percent. If they don't, the rates will remain higher than that.
"I'm not surprised that he wants to use the sales tax, but at the same time, the Legislature made a promise that it should end," said Senate Ways and Means Committee Chairwoman Carolyn McGinn, a Sedgwick Republican. "I see it as a tax increase."
Why is all this happening? Because as Brownback now acknowledges, the state could lose hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenues because of the income tax reductions.
Hmmm: Maybe Brownback and other slash-and-burn Republicans should have thought about all this earlier in 2012, when they were pursuing the tax cuts.
But this week the governor said, "There's going to be a two-year dip" in revenues. "That's the nature of these, when you cut taxes. If you cut them right, you get growth on the other side, but there's a dip first."
Of course, the governor claims the income tax reductions will lead to more jobs and higher revenues after two years.
But what if he's wrong? What if he and the state Legislature - in his own words -did not make the "right" tax cuts?
Then Kansans can expect that higher sales tax to stay in place.
Actually, we are left with two possible explanations. Either the Governor and his friends are incapable of understanding mathmatics at a third-grade level, or they just flat LIED and replaced a progressive income tax with a regressive sales tax as the revenue of choice.
GOOOOLLEE! Wonder which?
FYI: The nuns taught me you could go to Hell for lying, too, Guv.
"…the governor claims the income tax reductions will lead to more jobs and higher revenues after two years" - the caveat in that prediction being if Obama is not re-elected.
(Fixed that for ya)
Way to misrepresent and misdirect, Yael!
INCOME TAXES were reduced.
Sales taxes are scheduled to be reduced.
Maintaining the current rate of sales tax is NOT raising income taxes.
Conservatives have for a long time tried to explain that collecting revenue through sales tax is far more efficient and productive than collecting revenue on incomes.
I would LOVE to pay 30% sales tax and no income taxes.
Conservative politicians aren't opposed to all taxes, they're opposed to income taxes, because these taxes are progressive and disproportionately affect the rich, whom they count on to finance their political campaigns. Sales taxes disproportionately hit the poor, whom Republicans couldn't care less about except to use social issues to pander for their votes. Income taxes counter the regressiveness of sales and other taxes, and we can't have that, can we?
Who wants to raise the cigarette taxes John? hint: your beloved kc star led by ms. shelly, a LIBERAL……
Ha. LOL! Always quick with an excuse for why conservative policies fail. Ten+ years of Bush tax cuts and no prosperity, no explosion in job growth no nothin'. Two wars and a Medicare drug program on the credit card and squat to show for it. Geez, when will they "take responsibility" for their own ideas?
The Governor was in Wichita this past Friday at the Pachyderm Club. I think I heard him say that the tax-cut plan will attract a major growth in population becassue businesses will want to come here. Again, he talked about the "Texas" model and how California was losing out because of high taxes. The question: Is population the key variable in solving our economic woes?
I would LOVE to pay 30% sales tax and no income taxes."
..and this is why the wealthy prefer a sales tax too. The poorer of us will pay taxes on every dime they have and the rich will pay on only a fraction because they spend a smaller amount of their greater earnings. Now, a sales tax on the purchase of stocks, bonds and other securities would level the playing field.
He also fails to address what companies/people will want to move here after the 2+ years of miserable funding have decimated our school systems.
Funding is not the problem or the solution to our schools Helen IMO…
Accountability and CHOICE–not labor barons are the solution….
My property tax has gone up twice since Kansas Republicans "Cut" other people's taxes. The fees for licences are going up. Now they want to tax boats and RV's at a higher rate. Kansas Republicans do not cut taxes…they increase them.

In a small flat in downtown Jerusalem, a group of bright-eyed, eager young men and women lean forward in their chairs, listening to their leader instruct them in their quest. "We split them into independent cells," says Adi, the woman in charge of proceedings, "and they know their mission, though they have free rein in how they achieve their goals."
If successful, these operatives - along with their colleagues in the Ramallah branch - will make a significant impact on the future of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Through their actions, they aim to overthrow those currently leading the people, in order to wrest control of the course of the conflict and bring power to the streets. Eyes blazing with righteous zeal, they fire one another up for the long battle ahead as they relish the challenge that lies before them.
"OK," says Shani from the other side of the room, "we had a major disappointment with what happened last time, but we're looking to the future now and we're going to come back stronger and harder this time." Sitting on a couch nearby, Maya agrees with those sentiments. "For the first time since I joined the group, I had to deal with the reality of the situation hitting me in the face - but it just made me proud to carry on, and more determined to succeed next time."
As I listened to the group wax lyrical about their quest, I realised that the militant analogy was an apt one to choose to describe them and their goals. Even though they couldn't be further from urban terrorists, their methods and training were no different from the clandestine meetings Ed Husain describes in his whistle-blowing account of Islamist fanaticism in London.
But they are the antithesis of extremists, and using violence and terror to achieve their aims is the last thing on their minds. These are the young volunteers from OneVoice Israel, and these are the people who - like it or not - are about as likely to break the deadlock in the interminable conflict as anyone else in this troubled region. Leaving personal politics to one side, they come together as rightwingers, leftwingers, Jews and Arabs, all determined to combat the extremists and preach a message of moderation to the masses.
The Jerusalem cell are tasked with spreading the OneVoice ideology throughout the 27,000 students at the Hebrew University campus. Having undergone intensive leadership training, they are equipped with the skills and the dedication to promote dialogue and debate between their peers on the Palestinian and Israeli sides of the divide. And, despite the massive setback caused by their peace summit's recent abrupt derailing, they have lost none of their enthusiasm when it comes to continuing their task.
"The reason OneVoice is so amazing is that its main concern is ending the conflict, regardless of your political views," said Yaniv, who has just returned from a promotional college tour in the US with a fellow OneVoice leader, a Palestinian girl named Shada. "I can come back from a month in my miluim [reserve duty] combat unit and return straight to my work at OneVoice without it being any kind of contradiction," he explained. "I lost too many friends in battle for me to ever love the other side, but that doesn't mean I don't want the conflict to end."
Adi, the head of OneVoice's leadership programme, agreed with Yaniv's assessment: "It's not about peace and love," she said, "and it's not about pretending that we can all get along. But we have to work together to solve this. I can live with it if the Palestinians don't love us, so long as we can put an end to the conflict and have a safer future for our children." The intention of OneVoice is purely "to empower the moderates to take back the agenda which has been hijacked by extremists," and to show people in Israel and Palestine that those on the other side want peace to break out too.
The only political stance of OneVoice is that any settlement must be based on a two-state solution, which is hardly out of step with what most rational observers call for at present. "We're not taking a view on the rest of the details," said Adi, "since the two sides are not even at the stage where negotiations are taking place," she explained that it was therefore not timely for OneVoice to get involved in the minutiae either.
This non-committal stance is in stark contrast to what the groups who forced the peace summit's cancellation would have the world believe. According to them, OneVoice has a hidden agenda that would see the Palestinians stitched up and conned - although their evidence for saying so is shaky to say the least. That those who took such glee in derailing their landmark event are positioned at the extreme end of the political spectrum says much about the kind of challenge that OneVoice face every day.
But, on the strength of the volunteers I met tonight, being cowed by the fanatics is not something that will put off the dedicated members of the group. As much as they are gutted at what happened to the project they had worked so tirelessly to organise, they are just as proud of what they have achieved so far. Their group is as ardent as any cell of gun-toting militants, the difference is that they are flying the flag for moderation and that, in the end, they are really the ones who can bring an end to the heartache.

Mugabe threatens takeover of firms
HARARE | President Robert Mugabe threatened on Wednesday to take over foreign firms and boycott foreign products to retaliate against Western sanctions placed on him and his ZANU-PF party.
The European Union and United States cited human rights abuses and widespread election fraud as they imposed financial sanctions against Mr. Mugabe and top members of his Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front.
Meanwhile, in Geneva, a Mugabe loyalist accused Navi Pillay, head of the U.N. human rights agency, of bias for criticizing the authoritarian president over his repression of political opponents.
Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa denounced Ms. Pillay at a meeting of the U.N. Human Rights Council.
Muslim cleric arrested after posters defaced
LAGOS | Nigerian police on Wednesday said they arrested a prominent Muslim cleric and four others accused of defacing campaign posters of the president and his running mate in the country's restive northwest.
Federal police spokesman Olusola Amore said that Abubakar Jibril was arrested Monday in the city of Sokoto. He said Mr. Jibril and four others had painted over President Goodluck Jonathan's posters and were "saying all sorts of things to incite the public."
The arrest comes ahead of April polls in which Mr. Jonathan, a Christian from the south, is running for re-election.
Rebels step up attacks on civilians
KINSHASA | A U.N. official says a brutal Ugandan-led rebel group has intensified attacks, killings and kidnappings in Congo's volatile northeast.
U.N. refugee agency spokeswoman Celine Schmitt said this week that the Lord's Resistance Army has killed 35 people, kidnapped 104 and displaced more than 17,000 since January. She counted 52 raids by the group in 2011. Local officials confirmed that attacks had increased.
Last year, Uganda said the number of soldiers in the shadowy group had dwindled to the low hundreds. The rebels are known for vicious attacks against civilians, for abducting and forcing children to become members of the group and for brutally torturing others.
Dozens die in conflict with rebels
JUBA | Fighting in a tense area of south Sudan last weekend killed dozens of people only weeks after about 240 people died in violence in the same area, two officials said Wednesday.
The clashes could destabilize what is soon to be the world's newest country.
Rebel leader George Athor said his forces fought with the southern military on Sunday in south Sudan's Jonglei state. The spokesman for the Sudan Peoples' Liberation Army, Col. Philip Aguer, confirmed that the fighting took place.
Mr. Athor said 110 people died in the fighting. Most were southern soldiers, but 12 were civilians, he said. Col. Aguer said about 40 were killed. He didn't specify if they were soldiers or civilians, but he called Mr. Athor's toll an exaggeration.

Hello This team is based on getting a quick +2 / +2 and passing it. It's designed to play fast and without much thought overall—turn to turn you need to make the right decisions. There are a few annoying walls, but hey, aren't there always? [pimg]389[/pimg] Deoxys-S aka "My Lips" @ Light Clay Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Reflect - Light Screen - Taunt - Stealth Rock Deoxys-S is instrumental in my passing with its ultra-fast dual screens. I play extremely recklessly with my QuickPassers so instead of getting KOed I invested in a dual screen user. Deoxys-S is a suicide lead, usually managing both screens and Stealth Rock and dying for a free switch in. Taunt is my security move so that something like Quiver Dance Volcarona or DD Nite doesn't set up—it's not really for stopping Tyranitar's Stealth Rock or whatever since I usually don't even switch enough for entry hazards to be a problem. I find the lack of attacks a small problem since there are some perfect opportunities for easy OHKOes. The only move I can really remove is Stealth Rock, but Focus Sash is the end of this team, so the switch is not worth it. The EVs are straightforward. Max HP since there isn't really a better option, having no attacks. Maximum Speed to Taunt everything set up hazards, and psyche out those Scarf Genesect that still try U-turning against Deoxys-S. 4 Defense is so that Genesect gets a Special Attack boost so that U-turn is weaker and an unlucky crit will not OHKO Deoxys-S (after Reflect). Since most of the Genesect U-turn, I might as well have a bit extra help left over so I can for sure Light Screen and maybe even set up rocks. [pimg]257[/pimg] Blaziken aka "A Martyr" (F) @ Air Balloon Trait: Speed Boost EVs: 252 HP / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Protect - Baton Pass - Hi Jump Kick Blaziken is the primary passer since it passively gets a +1 Speed Boost each turn. With Air Balloon, you can literally set up on any Pokemon that lacks a Water- or Psychic-type move. We'll just simplify that to EVERYTHING. Since Jirachi and Breloom really want +2 Speed or more, Protect is important for that extra free turn. It used to be Flare Blitz (and a few more back, sun) so that Blaziken could sweep if it needed to, but … +2 Speed !!(*()!@&(!(!. Here I give Genesect an attack boost because LOL 4x RESIST U-TURN. Hi Jump Kick is the all weather move with not /that/ much danger—the recoil isn't consistent like Flare Blitz, and I hardly use HJK because the recipients make bank. The EVs could use reworking, but under screens 80 / 70 / 70 isn't that bad. Otherwise, maximum Speed and Jolly so that I can pass before some godforsaken Scarf user KOes Blaziken. Anyway, I briefly mentioned Air Balloon above. It really is the most awesome item for Blaziken for a few reasons. One, those with bad reading comprehension / way to tired Earthquake, so that's an extra free turn. Next is the ability to Swords Dance on extra threats such as Heatran, Excadrill, Tyranitar (since carry Earthquake), Garchomp, etc. Really it has more use than Life Orb especially, Leftovers since Blaziken is really not staying in that many turns, and Focus Sash, which "encourages" having low HP Blaziken, meaning passing is only possible once. Other than that, try out SD + 3 attacks in sun. [pimg]368[/pimg] Gorebyss aka "Black and White" (F) @ White Herb Trait: Swift Swim EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Shell Smash - Baton Pass - Surf - Ice Beam Here we have the SmashPasser to rule the three of them that can SmashPass. The real reason? I need a special attacker so maybe when it's the last I can beat Skarmory still. Besides that, any recipient of +2 Attack and +2 Speed will like a Shell Smash boost. While it would be nice to have a special attacker to benefit, I can without since it gets the job done. White Herb is an important item so that the work of screens isn't undone. Surf and Ice Beam are the two attacking moves that have the best coverage, though poo to Jellicent. There's always Breloom for it though. Gorebyss also has decent defenses, especially under screens, so that's why I would rather use it than Smeargle and Huntail LOL. A sad thing is that Scarf Genesect still outspeeds, but I'll have to deal. Swift Swim helps against opposing Drizzle teams since then it'll have ~800+ Speed and doesn't have to worry about these Scarfers. [pimg]385[/pimg] Jirachi aka "Bad Luck" @ Expert Belt Trait: Serene Grace EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Iron Head - Zen Headbutt - Fire Punch - Ice Punch "quote by ala" Ripped directly from ala, this is the Jirachi that 6 (5) –0s teams. Heatran? FLINCH LOL. Politoed? FLINCH LOL. Ninetales? FLINCH LOL. Seriously, Tyranitar? +2 Iron Head OHKOes. Excadrill? Fire Punch. Garchomp? Ice Punch. Dragonite? Ice Punch. Genesect? Fire Punch. Etc. The only thing stopping this is a Zen Headbutt miss on Vaporeon using Roar. And not to mention the bulk and typing of this thing, switching from Air Balloon Blaziken's Baton Pass with basically NO fear. Expert Belt is so Jirachi won't die before it finishes 6-0ing. Jolly is to prevent Jolly Excadrill in sand from outspeeding. I guess we want the U-turn boost so that Focus Sash Genesect doesn't KO with its Flamethrower or something, tbh Genesect usually dies before it poses a threat to Jirachi. (This is also why Stealth Rock is huge). [pimg]286[/pimg] Breloom aka "The Ghost" (F) @ Life Orb Trait: Technician EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Spore - Mach Punch - Bullet Seed - Stone Edge All Breloom wishes for is Speed to outspeed Scarf Chandelure; thus, it makes a great recipient. This is also why I shifted to Protect on Blaziken, so I /could/ get +2 Speed with that +2 Attack. Spore is an interesting choice I must say, but very helpful. Even with the moves Breloom has, it can't OHKO everything (and if it can, Stone Edge .-.), especially with only Speed boosts. Spore gives me one or two extra turns for that KO insurance, mostly against Dragonite. ExtremeSpeed is the only priority that gives me an issue, luckily, and CB Nite does around 70% iirc. Not too bad, except Life Orb recoil makes Breloom go a bit fast, especially in sandstorm. Nonetheless, the opponent's team is usually in shambles by the time Breloom has fainted. Mach Punch of course is awesome and OHKOes Genesect especially at +2. Bullet Seed is for most other things that don't fly—mainly Psychics and Ghosts. Stone Edge hits those flyers and Volcarona—miss = qq. [pimg]132[/pimg] Ditto aka "I still don't know what I stand for" @ Choice Scarf Trait: Imposter EVs: 252 HP Hardy Nature - Transform Ditto is Ditto and needs more love guyz~~. Choice Scarf patches up the potential issues of this team, since most of these other Pokemon are easily revenge killed without Speed passes. 252 HP for yum. However, this thing has another role: moveset scouting. If I want to get +4 Attack with Blaziken, I have to make sure Tyranitar doesn't have Earthquake. Or if I'm met with a Deoxys-S in team preview, I can Scarf Taunt it so it doesn't mess with my Deoxys-S's dual screen role. Really, the information is valuable and more people should use Ditto. Besides, it's the ultimate lazy mon, I mean it can work and ANY team needing a revenge killer. And we're all lazy here aren't we?? Importable Hide (Move your mouse to the hide area to reveal the content) Show Hide Hide Hide Code: Deoxys-S @ Light Clay Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Reflect - Light Screen - Taunt - Stealth Rock Blaziken (F) @ Air Balloon Trait: Speed Boost EVs: 252 HP / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Protect - Baton Pass - Hi Jump Kick Gorebyss (F) @ White Herb Trait: Swift Swim EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Shell Smash - Baton Pass - Surf - Ice Beam Jirachi @ Expert Belt Trait: Serene Grace EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Iron Head - Zen Headbutt - Fire Punch - Ice Punch Breloom (F) @ Life Orb Trait: Technician EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Spore - Mach Punch - Bullet Seed - Stone Edge Ditto @ Choice Scarf Trait: Imposter EVs: 252 HP Hardy Nature - Transform Threats Jellicent and Skarmory can be two problems since physical sweepers usually don't want to switch in to Scald. Regardless, Jellicent gets killed by Breloom's Spore / Bullet Seed, and Jirachi and scrape a 2HKO on Skarmory so it can't switch in. A threatlist? maybe…. New developments! Ditto is an issue because I have no Sub and it can countersweep if it steals Breloom; Jirachi is a smaller issue since its moveset it incomplete against the team. It's Mach Punch that sucks. Also, there's Thunder Wave Thundurus. Priority renders Deo-S useless, as well as basically everything else. NP TWave versions are the worst. Luckily, these two Pokemon are hardly seen. Use them people!!!! Concluding thoughts This team is ridiculously easy to use. Set up the correct screen with Deoxys-S, the other screen turn 2, and Stealth Rock. Tyranitar may think its beating you, but you get everything up and a free switch in to Blaziken! From there, just GO BIG. Don't be worried about dying, because you won't win that way. Go for a Swords Dance, pass to Jirachi or Breloom, and have a good time. Fast free points are always awesome.
Hey buddy! Well, there's really not much to be said about this team, as in Dream World, team building barely matters, it's how the user plays. That said, I think a few simple changes could help this team function a bit more smoothly! First off, the spread you should try using on Ditto is 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Spe because this gives you maximum switch-ins on entry hazards and maximum Speed. On Breloom, this is more of an optional change, but you could attempt to use Drain Punch over Spore because Jellicent will lose to Bullet Seed regardless, and Drain Punch helps cover the loss of HP that you take from Life Orb. Other than these minor changes, there isn't much to be said; it's a good team. Good luck buddy, hope I helped!
Thanks for the rate! For Ditto the Speed doesn't actually do anything except against other Ditto. I will try out Drain Punch though; I don't actually use Spore that much so the HP will help.
Like what harsha said this tea is pretty simple ,d there really isn't much to change. I would seriously consider putting rock slide>stone edge on Breloom. Unless Breloom gets a kill that it would otherwise wouldn't get, change it since it provides a much more consistent "way to victory". Your screwed over 1/10 times as opposed to 1/5. I am emphasizning "boosted" because the threats that breloom hits with. Stone Edge outspeed and KO him when he is unboosted, basically accuracy is null if he can't use that move in the first place :-l Edit: phone makes words into gibberish
Hey this team is pretty solid, at least for a DS team. If you're having trouble with jellicent and skarmory, why not try thunderbolt on jirachi over ice punch? It's main use is for killing dragons, but of you pass to rachi you can just spam iron head and kill it. Switch to a hasty nature and put the defense EVs into special attack... Or whatever amount of special attack you need to ko with thunderbolt haha
Well, good team I guess. Seems to be able to net some easy wins (then again, the entire DW ladder is easy wins). I only see real trouble with Gengar, who walls 1/2 your team to hell and back and whose supporting 'mons beat the rest of your crew. Stall poses quite the issue to you. Teams such as http://pokebattlecenter.org/showthread.php?6916-Gen5-DW-OU-Smokin-Shrooms > you easily. Unfortunately, there's no quick fix to this. Status seems to plague your team, as paralysis severely cripples basically anything you have, save maybe Techniloom. Maybe Chandelure could help you out...I haven't played DW in a while so I can't say for certain though. Unorthodox, entertaining team. Thumbs up.
Hey V0x, Scary team you have thurr. It's extremely hard to rate Screens/SmashPass teams since they all do the same, so my only recommendation is your Breloom set. As Harsha stated, Drain Punch over Spore would be a good idea. However, Low Sweep over Spore is even BETTER. Low Sweep has 60 BP, allowing Technician to boost it even further. Low Sweep is EXTREMELY powerful, doing 71.86% - 84.43% to Physically Defensive Skarmory. (At +2 Adamant) Another example is offensive Dragonite--doing 65.18% - 76.79% (18.75% chance to OHKO after Rocks). Yet another example, +2 Adamant Low Sweep does 95.5% - 112.86% to Volcarona, OHKOing 75% of the time. As you can see, Low Sweep can effectively deal with some of Techniloom's biggest checks, allowing it to sweep much easier. I know I calc'd 2 Pokes weak to Stone Edge, which you carry, but it's a reference if you don't want to miss the worst move in the game. Other than that, Jirachi looks like an absolute PAIN to deal with. Nice set you have thurr. Relying on Jirachi, though, to hax Skarmory seems way too luck-oriented and can mess up your team. This is where Low Sweep on Breloom can come in and OHKO after 2 Stealth Rock switches. There isn't much to rate otherwise; good team. :]
Worth looking in to, we also talked on irc coo coo cachoo Ty for the suggestions; Gengar is definitely an issue if I fail to set up but otherwise it dies. I haven't played against many stall teams though. Mm. I'll look in to Rock Slide Stone Edge KOes. Thanks! That definitely sounds appealing, I'll try that out. Thanks!
This team looks as a pain, and while often i dislike these kind of teams, yours seems to fit well with the metagame and I LOVE the scouting use of your Ditto! :] You could try Rock Slide over Stone Edge on Breloom to don't risk the miss on things as Volcarona or Zapdos or Chandelure. And uhm, another suggestion I have is to try Drain Punch on Jirachi over Zen Headbutt / Ice Punch, switchting the item to Life Orb. Other then beating Heatran, this set has still the power to flinch and kill things as Gliscor / Dragonite for death, and at the same time have something to recover random damages. Great and simple team, as I said.

NFL great Andre Rison is more concerned that his young charges in football camp become all-stars in life than champs on the gridiron.
"Football is not the biggest thing in life," said Rison, who held a football clinic at Richland High School on Wednesday and Thursday for several dozen youngsters.
His pre-workout speech to the kids wasn't about "Fight, fight, fight" or "Win, win, win."
"I make sure that I stress to the kids that education comes first," he said, along with respect for self, family and God.
Rison served a 12-year stint in the National Football League.
The five-time All-Pro receiver's career was punctuated by a 54-yard touchdown pass from Green Bay quarterback Brett Favre in a Super Bowl XXXI victory.
Rison found the area through a friendship he has struck up with Ebensburg native Janel Strittmatter, now of Cleveland.
"I had no clue it was so beautiful up here in the mountains," Rison said Thursday.
Rison doesn't tolerate laziness on the field.
"If you want to get better, you must try," he exhorts high schoolers running passing routes. "Learn to run 'em like the big boys run 'em," he said, setting down cones showing where the receivers will run.
"Hustle up. Hustle up. Hustle up. Don't be one of these cats that got the jersey on just to say, 'I play football. ' "
On a break and without prompting, he noted that he has suffered some personal setbacks.
In 1994, his Atlanta mansion was burned to the ground by then-girlfriend Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, now deceased, in an incident that made national news.
He crossed the law with late child-support payments and public intoxication.
"I've made some wrong decisions in my life, and I was able to bounce back from them," he said.
The football camp was held under Rison's own name, a first for him. He also coaches through Elite Football University.
Richland assistant football coach Tom Smith, also an assistant principal, clearly was pleased.
"Any time our kids have an opportunity to be around a football player of Andre Rison's capability, we need to take advantage of that," he said at Herlinger Field. "He gives them a great message."
Travis Gelles, 17, is a linebacker and guard who will be a Richland High senior. He found the camp worthwhile.
"It's a good learning experience. Just in the five minutes he worked with me, I learned new stuff," Gelles said, referring to instruction on posture and how to line up.
Isaac Freidhoff, 10, of Nicktown, who wants to play for Holy Name School in Ebensburg, said he was having a good time. He especially enjoyed running the routes of a wide receiver, though he'd prefer being a quarterback.
Isaac is the son of Ed and Sue Freidhoff.
Children from the Northern Cambria Borough area also took part in Thursday's camp.
Also this summer, Rison will teach camps in Maryland and Texas.
But the Flood City may not be far from his mind.
"It's definite that I will be back for years to come," he said.

If you are a taxpayer that doesn't want your taxpayer dollars funding health benefits for unmarried domestic partners and their children, then you should sign the petition. After signing the petition though, you should stand by your convictions and make sure none of your dollars fund these benefits.
That means you need to stop shipping packages via UPS or Fed Ex. You'll have to opt out of your own company's insurance from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee, Cigna or Unum. No more shopping at Target, Sears, Costco, Best Buy or Home Depot. Don't even think about owning a Volkswagen, Ford or Nissan. Close your bank accounts at First Tennessee Bank. And Regions Bank and SunTrust Bank. Cancel your upcoming holiday visit to Atlanta and forget about Vols games in Knoxville next year or the Kentucky Derby in Louisville. No more flights (Boeing) or cell phone service (Verizon or AT&T).
You see, all of those organizations, and countless more, provide domestic partner benefits. Many have for years. And the funny thing is, the end of the world did not occur. No fire and brimstone. No one turned into pillars of salt. Just some benefits for some people that deserve them.
So it's pretty simple. If you are going to sign the petition, then you need to boycott the hundreds of companies and cities that offer domestic partner benefits. Otherwise, your moral argument is one you've just lost.

In response to the article by Martin Knowles, I would like to remind him of a fact that he didn't mention, and that would be that of all the business organizations he mentioned providing same sex benefits, none pay those benefits with taxpayers money.
Robert Richey
The domestic partner ordinance petition falls short.
In my opinion, the city should not allow any spouse or child of a city employee to be covered under the employee's health insurance policy. If the spouse or child(ren) do not also work directly for the city, why should we, the taxpayers pay in part for their healthcare?
Perhaps the city could simply increase pay to allow the singular city employee to pay for their own insurance. An additional $2 per hour comes out to $320 per month so that should cover each individual's insurance cost. Let's eliminate this benefit all together.
How many city employees are involved in handling the red tape dealing with health insurance? The city could eliminate these positions and reduce complexity.
One quick phone call to the city revealed that there are four people in the city's benefits department. Surely, we could axe at least one of the four in the department by eliminating health care insurance as a benefit for 2,500 city employees. If this employee is pulling in $50,000 per year, plus another 20 percent for benefits/ employment tax, etc., we're talking $60,000 in immediate savings. Imagine the collective savings by eliminating some job tasks for other city employees that touch health insurance to some degree at the departmental level – they don't have to screw with this anymore so there will be additional savings that pile up here too. Surely we're talking at least $100,000 in savings.
Now, what to do with all of this money? Invest in sustainable jobs for children and stimulate the economy.
Hire the kids to clean out our rancid sewers which also eases the burden for working parents to pay for after school care. Hey, those sewer openings and tunnels are small; we need little people to shimmy their way down there to clean out the gunk. This is the perfect after school job for kids and they can easily work 40 hours and we could pay them minimum wage plus $2 more per hour to cover their individual insurance plan. And the kids learn the value of hard work. This is the perfect job for kids ages 8-12.
Hire graffiti crews to spray paint over this mess. Minimum wage + $2. Ages 12-18.
Purchase more public art.
Tom Wengler Chattanooga
Mr. Knowles,
Your argument holds no water.
We have the choice to purchase goods and services from companies or not - based upon any number of personal reasons. However, with a city government ordinance, we do not have the choice on whether or not we partake in services - or the lack of - we just have to pay taxes to fund them.
The upside though - is precisely what the petition has brought about: having the people affected make a choice by voting whether or not their tax money is spent on something they do not wish it to.
It is interesting that liberals are all for free speech - when they agree with what is being said; and it is even more interesting that liberals are all for democracy - when it favors their point of view.
Mike Romines
Martin Knowles,
If any of the companies you named decided to put a special charge on those who opposed the domestic partner's benefit ordinance, then these companies would indeed open themselves to a citizen's effort to reverse this action. Opponents of this ordinance do not wish to deprive any company or individual of the right to believe as they wish not to exercise their rights to express their will. The Chattanooga City Council voted to use taxpayer funds to fund a new privilege which violated the will of a large number of citizens in Chattanooga.
If these companies had used their influence to persuade the citizens of Chattanooga to defeat the petition drive, that might have opened them up to the kind of boycott you mentioned. Your letter intended to ridicule the petition effort and only reveals that you do not believe in what one councilwoman called a "true exercise of democracy."
James West
Mr. Richey has probably never heard of Medicare and Medicaid.
Robert Harvey Chattanooga
Thoughtful and very well written, Mr. Knowles. Yes, he mentioned cities, ones more progressive and fair who do, in fact, pay for these benefits out of their tax funded budgets. Two of the three banks mentioned took massive amounts of bailout funds, taxpayer monies. VW and Nissan got huge taxpayer benefits to outbid other municipalities to locate where they did. So in the case of VW, all you "westites" have another gripe against them, another area beyond just their desire to unionize where you can feel obligated to tell them how to do their business which has been very successful without your input. Then be prepared to wave goodbye when they get fed up with the closed minds.
As far as those not directly tax supported, why would you as "westites" choose to pay these evil companies who obviously have no moral base? Martin is right, if you don't take real stands, across the board, what kind of hypocrites are you?
Michael Lawrence
Westites? I think you will find that there are two very different groups who are opposed to the ordinance. Those who are morally opposed to homosexuality and those who are opposed to expanding out the city's liability. We all know what the morale nay-sayers have to say, but it is an easy target to lump everyone in as being religious bigots.
Westites? Have you looked into anything Mr. West has said? I don't know about you, but I haven't seen him thumping a Bible and preaching Sodom and Gomorrah. Instead, it seems to be more about government accountability and fairness to the former employees who were dropped. Have the church groups rallied behind him? Yep, and we all knew that they would oppose it (surprise).
I think you will find a large portion of the Chattanooga population who wouldn't mind giving these benefits to homosexuals. Not everyone else. Instead of tackling this ordinance like a sniper, Councilman Anderson implemented the shotgun approach, and there is a lot of unintended consequences to the ordinance. If anyone points out the law of unintended consequences, they are a bigot or now a "Westite."
Councilman Anderson's election is proof that Tennesseans are becoming more comfortable with the idea of homosexuals. It is also important to mention that he didn't mention this at all in campaign. As I told him in a personal letter, he should have used his position of power to fight Tennessee's definition of marriage instead of sneakily forcing this through. Imagine: he uses his position and media attention to be an advocate to the guys in Nashville. The media would love it and it would be all over the news. He could create a voice and a much bigger change across the state. There would be no need for this kind of ordinance in every Collegedale, Chattanooga and all the other cities that will never pass anything like this. Instead, he chose to force an unpopular ordinance through and now has to deal with the collateral damage.
Maybe the next gay councilman can fight for our rights <sigh>

Did you ever wonder what the oil in your silent air compressor is for?
I always assumed it was something like motor oil in a car, where it was a lubricant for moving mechanical parts.
It turns out that that is the case, but the way it really works is as a seal and filter in the actual compression mechanism. Whether it's a rotating impeller, a piston, or a pair of screws, the oil coats the path that the air travels through and ensures high efficiency compression. At the same time, it bonds to particles in the air. Afterwards, it is recollected by the compressor, filtered, and sent through again.
Want 50% more oil? Our replacement oil for SJ-27 synthetic compressor oil for Jun-air and Sil-Air silent air compressors is specifically formulated to meet the exacting specifications of these compressors.
Product comes in 24 fl. oz. bottles (8 oz. more than the 16 oz. pint bottles that others sell). The OEM SJ-27 Synthetic Oil is a top of the line lubricant that keeps your air compressor running smooth and cool, even during high volume operations. Our Replacement Synthetic Oil comes in a larger bottle and will save you immediately in volume pricing, and again in the future because you won't need to buy replacement oil so often.
Keep your silent air compressor running smoothly and use high quality synthetic oil formulated to work in silent air compressors
Units come unopened and factory wrapped with a small pour spout.

Last night when I was playing D3 with my friends using my DH I had encountered 2 game crashes while elite clearing on Act 2 - Blood and Stone quest.
I have suspected that the cause of the crash might be due to a broken pathfind of the said skill. To elaborate further, I was on an elevated ground while shooting them bolas at some trash mobs when suddenly the game freeze like forever until I had to force my PC to shutdown. This happened twice (as I have mentioned earlier)... same setup instead the second one was that the mobs were on the elevated ground and I was on a lower ground shooting. Talk about wasted 5 stacks of NV twice! Skills I was using that time were:
Passive: Archery, Steady Aim, Tactical Advantage |
just want to report i had the same problem using bola shot acid just now. client crashed. With my old skill setup there was never a problem like that, i only changed my primary to bola shot acid for some testing and then my client crashed.
Other skills i was using include: impale, vault, preparation, smoke screen, tac vantage, night stalker, archery. |
Same/Similar problem only happens with Bolo/Acid skills (my normal ones) and when there is slight to heavy lag. In my case locks my game screen and sound causes the sound card to stutter - force task manager to close, lose NV, toss comp out window (LOL).
I also experienced this. My situation is similar to Izpep. The game freezes, sound stutters, and I am forced to quit to windows via task manager. This only happens when I use Acid Bola.
There is no sign beforehand that it will happen, it just does. I should also add that I used Acid Bold fine in Act II without any crashes. But it happened 3 times in Act III already. EDIT: More info This happened when I was lighting the signal fires in Act III, and down in the basement of the the fort (Act III) on my way to Ghom in nightmare. It happened about once every 2 hours or so. My system details are: I run Windows Vista SP2 and my graphics card is Radeon HD 4850 Driver version 12.3. AMD Phenom 8650 CPU, 8 GB RAM, Creative X-Fi Titanium PCI-E sound card.

I've been having the same problem for several days now.
I'm playing Inferno Act I. I never had any bug or crash before using Bola Shot w. Acid Strike. While Inferno is a bit rough, I found Bola Shot with Acid Strike quite efficient, and wanted to stick to this. Yesterday my game crashed 4 times, and today I was only able to play 35mn before it crashed again. I didn't do any hardware update since I installed the game (not any change in GPU driver, etc...). Twice already, I discovered I had been considered dead when I logged back, ending with a nice 4500 gp bill to repair my stuff (should be great if you play hardcore!). I use: Bola Shot / Acid Strike Rapid Fire / Withering Fire Vault / Trail of Cinders Spike Trap / Scatter Caltrops / Jagged Spikes Rain of Vengeance / Flying Strike Vengeance + Tactical Advantage + Hot Pursuit Inferno is hard enough without the game crashing, ruining the Nephalem Valor progress in the process. It's odd, but it's like the game lost stability with the last updates. Please Blizzard, your game is already frustrating enough... If it keeps on crashing, if I just can't play the character I like, why continue playing it? This crash problem has been described by many players since early June... Why are-we still waiting for a patch? |
I have this problem often with acid bola. I began using the acid bola in Inferno with no problems until Act III, so I thought it only happened during that Act, but it *just* happened in Act IV. It always happens when I am holding shift and shooting the acid bola and there are multiple enemies on the screen. The screen freezes and sound stutters, but I can exit Diablo III without having to restart my computer. I have experienced this on two separate computers also.
Also want to add apologies if this is going to be fixed in the upcoming patch, which would be terrific.
Edited by ookiirisu#1130 on 8/21/2012 12:10 AM PDT
me too! everytime i select bola shot (acid strike) and attack, the game HANG!
sometimes 1 minute, sometimes longer and hang at last. i like the acid strike, but unfortunately, it has bug. |
Im having this problem as well.. which is a shame because I really like acid strike :S
EDIT: I read there was a way to get log files of crashes but cant find the info or remember. Any ideas?
Edited by Nikuya#1896 on 11/2/2012 4:59 PM PDT
I have the same problem with Bola Shot - Acid strike. I reported the bug and no answers :
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/7004043000#1 I cannot use my template based on poison damages :( |
I had the same problem when it was my DH primary skill, if you play the game in a window you dont have to reboot the whole machine, but if its in a window you can flip over to task manager and shut it down with out rebooting windows
I think its a bug or error having to do with sound animations or video card or mouse or something and its usually when there is a lot of monsters when a lot of rares or legs go to hit the ground I use a kingston mouse maybe thats it because sometimes it actls like the middle button was pressed and held down when i flip over to windows after ending diablo in the task mgr but sound stutters and usually there is a lot of monsters in the screen to as well
Fix this pls ! I want to play normally ! These game client crashes piss me off ! Add this bug to "1.0.5 Known bugs" list at least. A french blizzard gamemaster told me to post on the US section and even here nobody cares about this problem ! |
UP Again, my game has crashed again with Bola Shot (Acid Rune).
Any GM answer about this problem pls ? |

A relationship has little chance of surviving unless a couple finds some common ground, but what if that common ground involves ogling topless chicks? People reports fickle flames Katy Perry and John Mayer were spied partying into the wee hours of Sunday morning at the Spearmint Rhino gentlemen's club in Las Vegas.
"They were together in a group," says a source. "As for whether they got [lap] dances, they were in a strip club ... you do the math."
According to SunofLasVegas.com, Perry looked "hot" while enjoying the mammary Mecca, but the newly shorn Mayer didn't quite meet the same standards of comeliness. They reportedly partied until 5 a.m.
A few hours earlier, Perry, 27, and Mayer, 34, checked into the Wynn Hotel, the same swanky establishment where Prince Harry partied (and played strip pool) with a bevy of ladies.
The pair's Sin City rendezvous comes a few days after they allegedly had a public tiff during an MTV VMA afterparty. Word is, they quickly made up, although it doesn't bode well that after just two months of capricious togetherness, they're already arguing in public.
Sighs a Katy insider to People, "I won't save the date for a wedding."

Eatery fills niche in local restaurant scene
For just over a month, a new Tunica restaurant has been serving up pizza pies and healthy food options to local patrons looking for some variety in their dining options.
Southbound Pizza, which opened its doors at the start of the New Year, is a partnership between Moon Lake resident John Mohead and Buddy Allen, Michael Johnson and Patrick Johnson of Tunica.
"We opened up on January 4 – the first weekend in January," said Mohead, managing partner of Southbound Pizza. "We saw pizza as a void that needed to be filled in the community. But in addition to pizza, one of our goals was to offer a combination of healthy food option. We felt that was also a void that needed to be filled in Tunica."
Mohead said the idea to start a pizza business in Tunica was spawned on a sandbar in Moon Lake last summer. He said he pitched the idea to the other investors, and the concept evolved into what is now Southbound Pizza.

We've seen the film Animal House in which Bluto gave his speech. Now this time it's the Ben 10 Version.
Now here's the scene. Colonel Rozum is the new leader of the Plumbers, and by his rule, he Kicked Gwen, Kevin, Julie, Cooper (Who got beat up by Elena, Jennifer, Rojo and her gang and Michael Morningstar) Jimmy, Helen, Manny, Kai, Edwin, Lucy, JT & Cash. Even worse, Khyber has Ben and Eunice (Unitrix).
I'll start.
The gang is sitting there in humiliation.
Kevin: My life as a plumber is over.
Gwen: You? Ha, I'm not going to show my face in public again after what just happened.
(Helen & Manny carries an injured Cooper)
Jimmy: What happened?
Cooper: Oh, this is just from a visit.
Edwin: Who was it?
Cooper: Elena Valdius, Jennifer Nocturne, Rojo and her Gang, and Michael Morningstar.
Gwen: I see.
Cooper: Why is everybody bummed, and where is Ben?
Gwen (Sighs): Colonel Rozum kicked us out of the plumbers.
Cooper: Where's Ben?
Lucy: Khyber got him and he also got the Unitrix.
Edwin: Come on Guys what is this laying around stuff?
Cash: WHAT ELSE DO WE SUPPOSED TO DO YOU MORON?
Kai: Edwin, it's over done.
Edwin: Over did you say it's over? Not for me girl.
Manny: What's a matter with him?
Cooper: He's nuts.

Q: I met this hot girl on MySpace. We met in person the other night and she doesn't look anything like her picture. I'm talking some serious Photoshop. Why do people do this?
Dear MySpaced Out,
Contrary to popular belief, MySpace is not reality. The hot chick who sent you a friend request and messaged you saying you're cute didn't mean it, and, in fact, probably isn't even female. Most of your "friends" probably are people you wouldn't hang out with in real life, and vice versa. And when your real friend-"friends" (a.k.a. real-life friends who are on your friend list) leave you comments, it's because it's easier than spending time and energy calling you or seeing you in person.
In this unrealistic world, it's best to have low expectations: Don't expect your buddy to rank you No. 1 on their friend list. Don't expect the hot chick (or guy) you had a crush on in high school to accept your friend request (or even remember who you are), and, lastly, don't expect the hot girl from the other night to look like her picture. Better yet, just delete your stupid MySpace account altogether and join the real world.
