We are part of the wilderness of the universe. Some of us think we see this so clearly that for ourselves, for our childrenís, our continuing posterity, and our fellow men we covet with a consuming intensity the fullness of human development that keeps its contact with wildness
Howard Zahniser
The fact that no limits exist to the destructiveness of this weapon [i.e. the atomic bomb] makes its very existence and the knowledge of its construction a danger to humanity as a whole. It is necessarily an evil thing considered in any light. For these reasons, we believe it important for the President of the United States to tell the American public and the world what we think is wrong on fundamental ethical principles to initiate the development of such a weapon.
Enrico Fermi
Thus science may implement the ways in which man produces, stores, and consults the record of the race. It might be striking to outline the instrumentalities of the future more spectacularly, rather than to stick closely to the methods and elements now known and undergoing rapid development, as has been done here. Technical difficulties of all sorts have been ignored, certainly, but also ignored are means as yet unknown which may come any day to accelerate technical progress as violently as did the advent of the thermionic tube.
Vannevar Bush
A great storm destroys much that is precious, but it may also clear the air and blow down trees which might have been obscuring the view and making our life stuffy, and reveal in our estate possibilities of development that we had not thought of.
John Buchan, 1st Baron Tweedsmuir
The only justifiable purpose of political institutions is to ensure the unhindered development of the individual
Albert Einstein
It is difficult to know whether an independent Macedonian state would have come into existence had Tito not recognised and supported the development of Macedonian ethnicity as oart of his ethnically organised Yugoslavia. He did this as a counter to Bulgaria, which for centuries had a historical claim on the area as far west as Lake Ohrid and the present border of Albania.
Eugene N. Borza
The Saudi government's denial of basic rights to women is not only wrong, it hurts Saudi Arabia's economic development, modernization and prosperity.
Barbara Levy Boxer
All history has been a history of class struggles between dominated classes at various stages of social development.
Friedrich Engels
Just as counterpoint and harmony follow their own laws, and differ in rhythm and movement, both formal tensions and color tensions have a development of their own in accordance with the inherent laws from which they are separately derived. Both, however, aim toward the realization of the same image. And both deal with the depth problem.
Hans Hofmann
In its broadest ecological context, economic development is the development of more intensive ways of exploiting the natural environment.
Richard Wilkinson
The moment always comes when, having collected one's ideas, certain images, an intuition of a certain kind of development whether psychological or material one must pass on to the actual realization. In the cinema, as in the other arts, this is the most delicate moment the moment when the poet or writer makes his first mark on the page, the painter on his canvas, when the director arranges his characters in their setting, makes them speak and move, establishes, through the compositions of his various images, a reciprocal relationship between persons and things, between rhythm of the dialogue and that of the whole sequence, makes the movement of the camera fit in with the psychological situation. But the most crucial moment of all comes when the director gathers from all the people and from everything around him every possible suggestion, in order that his work may acquire a more spontaneous cast, may become more personal and, we might even say in the broadest sense more autobiographical.
Michelangelo Antonioni
Widely dispersed knowledge concerning the important role of basic cooperative processes among living beings may lead to the acceptance of cooperation as a guiding principle both in social theory and as a basis for human behavior. Such a development when it occurs will alter the course of human history.
Warder Clyde Allee
Fascism, the more it considers and observes the future and the development of humanity, quite apart from political considerations of the moment, believes neither in the possibility nor the utility of perpetual peace.
Benito Mussolini
All religions, with their gods, their demigods, and their prophets, their messiahs and their saints, were created by the credulous fancy of men who had not attained the full development and full possession of their faculties. Consequently, the religious heaven is nothing but a mirage in which man, exalted by ignorance and faith, discovers his own image, but enlarged and reversed that is, divinized. The history of religion, of the birth, grandeur, and decline of the gods who have succeeded one another in human belief, is nothing, therefore, but the development of the collective intelligence and conscience of mankind.
Mikhail Alexandrovich Bakunin
Problems do not go away. They must be worked through or else they remain, forever a barrier to the growth and development of the spirit.
Scott Peck
Companies have been cutting back on exploration, development, and manpower since the 1980s.
Kevin Norrish
All growth depends upon activity. There is no development physically or intellectually without effort, and effort means work.
Calvin Coolidge
All men have an equal right to the free development of their faculties; they have an equal right to the impartial protection of the state; but it is not true, it is against all the laws of reason and equity, it is against the eternal nature of things.
Victor Cousin
No man or woman has achieved an effective personality who is not self-disciplined. Such discipline must not be an end in itself, but must be directed to the development of resolute Christian character.
John Sutherland Bodell
Teaching is leaving a vestige of one self in the development of another. And surely the student is a bank where you can deposit your most precious treasures.
Eugene P. Bertin
Liberal education is the pursuit of human excellence, not the pursuit of excellent salaries and excellent forms of polish and sophistication. Liberal education is not even about excellent intellectual achievements. Its goal is more ethical than intellectual: It focuses on the development of individuals as moral agents, and it teaches students how to reflect both analytically and evaluatively on the fact that the choices we make turn us into the persons we become.
Marshall Gregory

With its £650 price tag the DeLonghi Perfecta Cappuccino maker is clearly aimed at coffee aficionados. Despite the range and variety of its sophisticated functions, however, it doesn't take a set of instructions as thick as the Yellow Pages to navigate your way around it.
A sleek, café-style machine bearing a Good Housekeeping Institute seal of approval, it has an integrated conical burr grinder with 13 settings for adjusting the grind for all types of beans. A milk carafe plugged into the front of the machine, part of a fully automated brewing and milk-frothing system, mixes steam, air and milk to produce a light fresh froth for cappuccinos and lattes at the touch of a button.
It's programmable, too, meaning personal coffee preferences such as, strength and temperature can be fed into it.
Cleaning's straightforward as the various pieces come apart easily and the cappuccino system is self-cleaning.
My only personal quibble would be that, given its hefty price tag, it doesn't really look the part. It somehow seems a bit flimsy and not quite as polished as one might expect.

Worst app ever. It is literally pointless, I've been waiting all week to watch psych and when it finally comes on the app won't sync it just takes me to some random social crap that I don't care about. I missed it now and I'm really disappointed. The whole point of the app is to be able to stream it from anywhere not read others peoples tweets about the show. This has happened more than once and it needs to be improved a lot. Don't download!!
Great app, you can catch up on last seasons on most popular shows not just webcast a full show very few commercials too Great app
Thanks!!!!! Love USANetwork

Zipcar Launches Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Pilot Program in San Francisco
Company joins Mayor Gavin Newsom's efforts to drive awareness and use of environmentally friendly electric vehicles
Feb 18, 2009
San Francisco, CA (February 18, 2009) —Zipcar, the world's largest provider of cars-on-demand by the hour or day, today announced it has launched a pilot program for plug-in hybrid vehicles in its Bay Area fleet through a partnership with the city of San Francisco. The company made the announcement at a press conference with Mayor Gavin Newsom, which showcased the converted Toyota Prius plug-in hybrid at a special charging station across the street from City Hall.
Zipcar is supporting the Mayor's drive to increase the awareness and use of electric vehicles (EVs), while also providing a convenient, cost-effective solution to consumer transportation needs. Zipcar's legacy of offering clean cars dates back to 2003, when it was the first commercial fleet to widely introduce hybrids in Seattle.
"Zipcar encourages sustainable lifestyles in several ways - fewer personally owned cars, less driving overall, and now the addition of these super efficient plug-in cars," said Mark Norman, President and Chief Operating Officer of Zipcar. "Our members strongly support the notion of adding next-generation clean cars, and this program is an important first step in exploring the potential."
In a member survey last month, more than 80 percent of the respondents voiced support for the addition of electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and alternative fuel vehicles to the fleet.
To meet member interests, Zipcar is looking for ways to increase the percentage of these types of vehicles in the fleet in 2009. The pilot program and partnership with the city will provide existing and new Zipcar members with an easy, convenient and cost-effective way to test drive the next generation of clean vehicles, helping the City and Zipcar both gauge interest and use of EVs and PHEVs.
"Electric vehicles are the future of transportation and the Bay Area is the testing ground for the technology," said San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom. "We began using plug-in hybrids in the city's fleet last year. Now, for the first time the public can plug-in to the next generation of cars through car sharing organizations and take them for a drive in San Francisco."
The plug-in hybrid for the San Francisco Zipcar fleet is a Toyota Prius converted with the HymotionTM L5 Plug-In Conversion Module (PCM) provided by A123 Systems. The addition of the Hymotion L5 PCM battery provides the Prius with up to 30 - 40 miles of electrically assisted driving on a single charge from the utility grid. During those first 30 - 40 miles, greenhouse gas emissions can be reduced by up to 66 percent and fuel economy of up to 100 mpg or greater can be achieved. When the L5 PCM battery is depleted, the Prius automatically reverts to standard HEV operation, so driving range need not be a concern.
"We are gratified to help Zipcar and their members realize the benefits that plug-in technology can provide today," said Sanjeev Choudhary, General Manager of PHEV Systems at A123. "We thank Mayor Newsom and Zipcar for their pioneering efforts in demonstrating this technology in San Francisco."
Zipcar's award-winning car sharing service provides members with on-demand access to a diverse fleet of vehicles conveniently located throughout major metropolitan areas. To use the service, members reserve a vehicle online or via a mobile device, use a smartcard to open the doors, take their trip, and then return the car at the end of the reservation. A simple hourly or daily fee covers gas, insurance, maintenance, parking and 24-7 emergency service.
About Zipcar
Zipcar is the world's leading car-sharing service with 250,000 members and 5,500 vehicles in urban areas and college campuses throughout 26 North American states and provinces as well as in London, England. As a leader in urban transportation, Zipcar offers more than 30 makes and models of self-service vehicles by the hour or day to savvy city residents and businesses looking for an alternative to the high costs and hassles of owning a car in the city.

No Split Loyalty For Carroll Or Nolan
Former Newcastle favourites Kevin Nolan and Andy Carroll had chances to win the game for the Hammers and assistant manager Neil McDonald felt they proved there was no chance of split loyalties for the duo.
Neil McDonald: "They are 100 per cent behind West Ham.
"Obviously they have a past with Newcastle and good times with them but they are so focused on West Ham trying to get in the top 10 now with two games left, after getting newly promoted and they've been solid all the way through.
"They've contributed as much as anyone in the team which is fantastic.
"I've said before, I think Newcastle have got enough to stay up.
"But everyone is slightly still under pressure with the result that Wigan have had so everyone needs to do the best in the next game to try and get the points on the board so they can't be caught, but personally I think they will be okay."

Are my medications causing fluid retention: Nadolol, Hyzaar, Actonel, Lasix, Neurontin, Naproxyn, Percocet, Ambien?
- Q: I take Nadolol, Hyzaar/HCT, Actonel , Lasix, Neurontin, Naproxyn, Percocet, Ambien CR, potassium, vitamin D and other over-the-counter medications. I have a problem urinating, so I have fluid weight gain. Can any medications cause fluid retention?
- A: Difficulty urinating and fluid retention can be serious conditions if left untreated. You should consult with your physician for further guidance on this subject. The medications you are taking, Hyzaar HCT and Lasix are diuretics and should alleviate any type of fluid retention you are experiencing. Percocet, according to the prescribing information, can have a side effect of difficulty with urination and this should be reported to your physician if you are experiencing this issue. Neurontin (gabapentin) lists swelling or fluid retention in the legs, feet, arms, or hands as a side effect in the prescribing information for this medication. For more information on Neurontin, click on this link: http://www.everydayhealth.com/drugs/neurontin For more specific information, consult with your doctor or pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action.

Hi all ...
My DS is 10 months old, and he's crawling, pulling himself up, creeping along, and falling all over the place. A few weeks ago we went on vacation and he rolled off the hotel bed (I feel really guilty about that one) ... he's fine, but he's been a bit more fussy and clingy lately; I know he's working out a few more teeth, and he's got a lot of mental processing that is probably making it harder for him to sleep but I thought at trip to the Chiro would be beneficial all the same! I used to work with Chiropractors and I love it, I think it's a great treatment. When I mentioned it to DH he surprised me by saying he was reluctant. (He couldn't say *why* he wasn't into it, but kept vaguely mentioning things like "his bones are just so new, and like, still growing .." ... ?)
ANYWAY: I want some solid info to give DH so he can get over his fear of this wonderful treatment. He stubbornly refuses to read anything with an emotional slant. Do any of you have info/experiences you'd like to share??
ETA: I've already found a DC in my area, highly recommended by a good friend who has brought her kids, so I will call the office and ask if they have any info too.

- Urban Ghosts
Elevating lost materials from industrial by-products to works of fine art. - We create sandblasted wall hangings, from oldreclaimed wood and iron forms that we find within the city of Boston. In theprocess of manufacturing forged iron railings, the iron is sandblasted to giveit a smooth uniform finish, while the plywood that lays beneath the ironworkbecomes a bas-relief of the design. We are fascinated by the delicate andsubtle etching that the sandblasting creates on the aged, rough, utilitarianplywood, that reveal the strength and grace of the ironwork.The process becomes a convergence of two urban ghosts,which, begins to reveal the story behind their existence, and strikes a balancebetween delicate articulated craft and the roughness and idiosyncrasy thatcomes with age. Through this project we will exploreand create new lives for these discarded materials, allowing them to take onthe spirit and history of the city's architecture. Our goal is to elevate theselost materials from industrial by-products to works of fine art.

Hey, everyone. It's been so long I posted a team. I decided to make a team, based on the basics. Read more in Team Building. I'm really bad at team names ._. TEAM BUILDING (sorta) Hide (Move your mouse to the hide area to reveal the content) Show Hide Hide Hide Lead Lead Support Core Glue I first wanted my core. So, I decided I wanted the classic F/W/G core. I came up with three which were.. Kingdra, the amazing dragon pokemon. I wanted to eff up with rain, and use their rain to my advantage. Kingdra is amazing for that. I then threw that in my core. The next poke is.. I heard of the Heatran+Kingdra core, somewhere on the forums. I wanted to utilize it. Kingdra covers up Heatran's water weakness, and the sets that both of these pokemon cover up several types. Kingdra+Heatran, was amazing but I needed something to patch it up. I needed a grass pokemon, which led to this. By finishing up the core, F/W/G I made my core. Breloom was great since it spored opponents, and it destroys pokemon with bulk up. Breloom has problems with Gliscor, which Kingdra can take care of. Breloom was awesome. Now that the core was completed, I needed a lead. I chose Gengar. A great lead pokemon, that counters dragons with icy wind. It prevents mons from setting up by using taunt. Gengar was used to stop people from setting up. I needed lead support, so the lead wouldn't die. I chose metagross. It worked well with Gengar, since it set rocks up. Gengar could patch up its weakness, and counter ground/fighting. Now that I had all these pokemon, I need the glue. I needed a revenge killer. I experimented with different pokemon. I tried CB Ambipom, CS Alakazam, CB dugtrio with no success. I finally chose CS Haxorus. An amazing revenge killer, that would destroy pokemon with outrage. And there my team was created. Without further ado here is the team.. Azelf @ Normal Gem Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 6 HP Jolly Nature - Stealth Rock - U-turn - Fire Punch - Explosion Gengar was swapped for Azelf. Lead azelf, gets me SR, and lets me scout with u-turn. It's a suicide lead. At any given point, I can explode and normal gem powers it up more. I usually want to keep Azelf alive, to explode. EVs are mainly in attack, since I really don't have any special moves. It's a really good lead. Metagross @ Lum Berry Trait: Clear Body EVs: 16 HP / 240 Atk Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Bullet Punch - Earthquake - Meteor Mash - Stealth Rock Bar pursuit, Metagross covers up gengar's dark weakness, as well as its psychic weakness. It sets up rocks, and bullet punches pokemon with focus sash. I might add in explosion and swap out meteor mash. It works well with Gengar. They're a really good duo. Heatran (M) @ Shuca Berry Trait: Flash Fire EVs: 36 HP / 252 SAtk / 2 SDef / 220 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Def) - Fire Blast - Earth Power - Hidden Power [Electric]/ice - Explosion I wanted an uncommon set so here it is. Shuca Berry Heatran. Explosion is when its low on health, it leaves a great dent to bulky pokemon. Fire Blast is its main move, which destroys a lot of pokemon with its great special attack. Heatran fills up the core, and covers up brelooms weaknesses, such as flying/ice/poison/and many others. HP elec, is there for pesky gyarados. Ice might be added in. Kingdra (F) @ Chesto Berry Trait: Swift Swim EVs: 168 HP / 164 Atk / 6 SDef / 172 Spd Hardy Nature - Rest - Dragon Dance - Waterfall - Outrage ChestoRest Kingdra is amazing. In rain, it has 400+ speed. I set up a DD or two, and when its on low health, I rest up. Wonderful for curing status, and such. I do dislike its one time though. Waterfall is my secondary move if I don't use outrage. Outrage is its primary move, and rapes a lot of pokemon, bar steels. I am looking to changing this set, so suggestions are helpful. Breloom (M) @ Toxic Orb Trait: Poison Heal EVs: 236 HP / 212 SDef / 60 Spd Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk) - Bulk Up - Spore - Drain Punch - Seed Bomb Bulk up loom is amazing. Its frail defenses skyrockets after a few BU's. Drain punch is to get health back, adding this with poison heal. Seed Bomb is for Quagsires/Swampert/Gastrodon, and any other bulky water. Drain punch is great at defeating scizor, and many other pokemon. It is frail, if it does not set up bulk ups. I'm thinking of adding Celebi in instead. Suggestions? Haxorus (M) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Mold Breaker EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Outrage - Earthquake - Brick Break - Dual Chop After experimenting with different revenge killers, I chose Haxorus. It's amazing outrage rips everything apart. I chose this over moxie mence, because of mold breaker. No matter what comes in, Outrage/Earthquake will hit anything. Dual Chop is for the pesky pokemon with subs, such as breloom. Brick Break, is for the people who decide to use dual screens. I commonly see this in smash pass teams. I'm really open in replacing this pokemon, since I am quite unsure what revenge killer am I to use. CS Flygon, maybe? As you see, I'm open to any changes and rates to this team. I don't mind changing the core, lead, lead support or the glue. I might want to keep Kingdra, and Heatran. I'd like to keep the F/W/G core in tact, at all costs. So there's the team. Rates are appreciated. OLD TEAM MEMBERS Ambipom Alakazam Dugtrio Gengar Metagross CURRENTLY TESTING Azelf @ Normal Gem/Focus Sash Nature: Adamant (+Atk -SpAtk) Trait: Levitate EV's: 252Atk/ 4Def/ 252Spd -Stealth Rock -U-Turn -Fire Punch -Explosion Scizor @ Choice Band Nature: Adamant (+Atk -SpAtk) Trait: Technician EV's: 98HP / 252Atk / 160SpDef -U-Turn -Bullet Punch -Superpower -Pursuit Salamence (M) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Moxie EVs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Naughty Nature (+Atk, -SDef) - Outrage - Dragon Claw - Fire Blast - Earthquake
Awesome team man! However, I think for Metagross you should put in a life orb because metagross isn't a guaranteeing sweeper with out life orb. Here is my metagross: Metagross @ Life Orb Ability: Clear Body EVs: 252 Attack / 240 Speed / 16 Defense Nature: Naive(+Speed,-Special Defense) -Stealth Rock -Zen Headbut -Earthquake -Meteor Mash I used Metagross as a lead because most stealth rock set uppers have a low base speed of 60-70, but the Nature and EVs can be faster and life orb will kill. Gengar has frail defense and usually stealth rockers are slow but can take a hit.
The point of lum berry, is to have a free turn. Say someone decides to scald me and they think they burned me, or paralyzed me. Lum helps in these scenarios. But I'll definitively try LO. Thanks. 60 something views, and only one rate? Come on.
Team Rate I would say switch the Metagross and Gengar. You can make Metagross the lead and run either more of lead spread for him something like: Metagross @ Air Balloon Ability: Clear Body Nature: Adamant EVs 252 HP/252 Atk/ 4 Spe Stealth Rock Bullet Punch Hammer Arm Explosion With this set you can set up rocks for your team, and land a couple of heavy hits before exploding. The Air Balloon is really useful for a lead Metagross, but you may want to use a different item and save that for Heatran possibly trading out Explosion for Protect. Metagross can fill the Explosion roll, and a Heatran that can scout with Protect is always useful. For the Gengar I prefer using the new accuracy rating on Disable to the fullest extent. Go for something like: Gengar @ Leftovers Ability: Levitate Nature: Timid EVs 252 SpA/ 252 Spe/ 4 HP Substitute Disable Shadow Ball Focus Blast Set up a sub and disable the user's move. This can be critically frustating towards anything scarffed, and STAB Shadow Ball and 120 Base Power Focus Blast provide perfect type coverage. Anyway, just a few ideas. Props for using Kingdra too.
Hey, nice team If you want a non-weather designated lead that REALLY works you should'nt run Gengar. The Weather starters aside from Abomasnow all beat him one on one which will leave your team a mon short and you will be behind the Eight Ball right from the start. Although putting Metagross as a lead could fix this, I would suggest you try Lead Azelf over your current Gengar. It is a Preety standard suicide lead. Normal Gem and Adamant because if your going to explode, your going to do it right. RUn focus sash if you want but I've found it pointless due to lead Ttar's Sand stream breaking it anyway. Remeber to not explode right off the bat as U-Turn helps get momentum and lets Azelf come back later to act as death fodder or if it survives, blow something up with Explosion. Another potential change if you take on Azelf is using Choice Band Scizor over your current Metagorss. He Has a stronger Bullet Punch then Metagross and also Builds up Momentum with his powerful U-Turn. He also lures in fire attacks which Heatran and Kingdra switch into with ease and then can do what they wish with boosted STAB or a free turn respectively. Good Luck!

I'm not completely sold on the CS Haxorus idea. Yeah, there's nothing wrong with it, but I just feel like the spot could be better used. I'm thinking especially a Choice Scarf Salamence especially, because of the extra fighting resistance it provides. You're REALLY shaky in that area considering your only other resistance to fighting is a suicide lead pretty much. The other thing is Intimidate helping the team out a pretty decent amount. Nobody on the team is really all that bulky, with the exception of maybe Metagross (who's EV spread is kind of incomplete, those extra EVs probably belong in defence I'm thinking). Mamoswine is actually a pokemon I thought could be kind of troublesome, but between Intimidate and Kingdra you should have it nicely patched up with smart play, although I don't play 5th gen all too much, so I don't really have an idea of how potent, swine is, I've never actually battled it. Likin' the team.
I'm going to agree with Doctor Who? CS Salamence is flat out amazing, and once he nets a KO the Moxie boost makes him stronger than Haxorus anyway, and the fighting resist could be very useful, although from my experience Salamence doesn't come in much as a defensive pokemon. I also agree with Asek. An Azelf lead would be much better than Gengar as Gengar dies right away as a lead, and as said before, he loses to very common leads. Azelf is very useful for setting up rocks and keeping momentum while Gengar just KO's one thing before dying. Also, it would kinda help if you completed Metagross' EV spread. Hope this helped and I like the originality of the team.
Hi nice team, man. I don't think a lead is needed, because team preview basically took away the need of a lead pokemon. Instead I suggest something which can make your live a bit easier vs Sand Storm teams, which seem to be the most problematic to your team, as well as a Fighting resist: Swords Dance Gliscor. With a spread of 252 HP / 40 Def / 216 Speed, it will outrun Adamant Lucario and Toxicroak. The moves: Substitute / Swords Dance / Earthquake / Facade or Ice Fang, the choice is up to you, but I like Facade since it allows you to hit Rotom-W hard. You seem to miss a few EV's on Metagross but you prolly just forgot them to type lol. I strongly suggest you changing back to ScarfMoxieMence, since it is an amazing late game sweeper AND it can Skarmory hard, who can be a bit of a nuissance for your team, if coupled with Skarmory. Hope I helped and good luck!
Hey, thanks for the rate. Yeah, I'm gonna try CS Mence. I've thought it was the best revenge killer, but I wanted to try other things but it seems like it won't work. If it doesn't, I'll switch back up to Haxorus, because of mold breaker. The selling point for Haxorus is that, even if its locked on Earthquake after revenge killing something, flying types/levitating mons that decide to switch in will still get get damage, because of mold breaker. But yeah, CS Mence will be tried out. Hey, thanks for the rate. I still think a lead is important. Despite, the whole team preview thing. But yes, I just realized I forgot the EVs on Metagross, which I'll fix. Ehh, I'm unsure on the gliscor thing. I still want to follow Lead/Lead Support/Core/Glue idea. So no, I won't try out Gliscor as it will sort of ruin the team in my eyes. I need a SR setter, and the mon to support it. Hey, thanks for the rate. Yes, I've also considered Azelf. I'll definitely try this one out. As Azelf is one of the mons I love using. For Azelf I might consider running ice punch. I can switch Azelf's role and give it a SR set up. It sounds perfect to me, since Metagross has problems setting up SR. As for Scizor, I'll try that out as well. Although I am unsure if I should swap metagross with scizor. But yes CB scizor, sounds like a great idea as well. It also removes the ground weakness, metagross used to have. As for the LO idea for Metagross, it didn't really work out for me. In my opinion it lost too much health. It would get hit first, then it would more health with LO. So yeah, there's a chance metagross is being removed. If all these suggestions don't work I'll try out Disable Gar, and Lead metagross. Thanks for everyone who rated! I appreciate it.
No, you want a Jolly nature, because you are only using physical attacks. Perhaps replace Zen Headbutt with Explosion or an elemental punch because Zen Headbutt has poor coverage. I would suggest Fire Punch to have a secondary Forretress/Scizor/Ferrothorn counter. Alternatively you could squeeze SR on Heatran in place of HP Electric and swap Metagross out: Magnezone @ Air Balloon Ability: Magnet Pull EVs: 252 HP/108 Def/148 SpA Nature: Bold/Modest/Calm -Thunderbolt/Discharge/Thunder -HP Fire -Flash Cannon/Mirror Shot -Toxic/Barrier This Magnzeone counters Steels and Gyrados simultaneously.
This reminds me of Faladrans DP how to build a competitive team video. Anyway, I thought I should mention that I that I think you forgot the Ev's for Breloom. Also, I think the idea of Scarf Salamence would be a good replacement for Haxorus. I don't think the loss of Mold Breaker would be all that bad for a revenge killer.
Yeah, mence isn't that bad. And yes, surprisingly I forgot the EVs for Breloom. Yet, it still was doing well for some reason.
Flying types still dont get affected by EQ. Mold Breaker only works for abilites. For example, say you had wanted to poison a snorlax with immunity, then a pokemon with mold breaker would get the job done. However, even if you have mold breaker, steel types still wont be affected by toxic. Other than that, i agree with a CS Salamence as above and i think the nature should be changed to Modest because -def is not helping the shuca berry if the opponent has EQ, which they will run mostly over Earth Power (unless they are special)
Done. Although I'm probably switching Heatran, to Sub+Fire Blast+Dragon Pulse+Toxic After playing around with the team a bit, I've seen some problems. Hazards really screw me over. Hippowdon screws me over. I tested Celebi in place of breloom, and I've seen the hungry hippo eff me. It can set up hazards, and throw in roars that can hurt me. I'm thinking of adding Taunt for Azelf, or adding a rapid spinner. Suggestions? Cloyster maybe? Edits to the team, is slowly being made.

The AuthA protocol for password-based authenticated key exchange (2000)

Years of Citing Articles
We suggest a simple protocol, AuthA, for the problem of password-based authenticated key exchange (AKE). We assume the asymmetric trust model: the client A has a password pwa and the server B has a particular one-way function of this, pwb. Two ows of the protocol comprise a Di e-Hellman key exchange, using a group on which the Di e-Hellman problem is hard. At least one of these two ows is encrypted using the key pwb. Then an authentication tag, AuthA, is owed from the client to the server. This tag is just the hash of some values easily computable by both parties. The server checks the received tag prior to accepting the session key. The protocol just sketched provides security against dictionary attack, and it ensures forward secrecy and client-to-server authentication. Server-to-client authentication can be added cheaply, by owing a second authentication tag, AuthB, from server to client. Like mostwork in this area, our protocol springs from ideas of Bellovin and Merritt [BM92, BM93]. There has been a large body of other follow-on to this, including protocol suggestions

Christina Aguilera's Near Nip Slip Experience
May 8th, 2012 8:24pm EDT
What a close call for XTina! Christina Aguilera came really really close to being the latest victim of the infamous celebrity nip slip. In case you missed it, the 31-year-old's shimmery v-neck dress almost malfunctioned during her duet of "The Prayer" with Chris Mann on last night's episode of The Voice.
And although the viewers seem to be on the edge of their seats waiting for the slip to occur, the Stripped singer didn't seem to be fazed at all, raising her arms continuously and making other sudden moves.
I'm wondering if she felt what was going on? Here is the 3 minute clip including her wonderful performance and near nip slip experience.

Millennium Falcon Guitar With Light & Sound FX
This is a custom electric guitar pieced together by Youtuber fiskybusiness89 out of a plastic Millennium Falcon toy and handmade R2-D2 head stock. I don't know about you, but I for one would smash the shit out of that on stage after one song and then yell "SHOW'S OVER, NO REFUNDS." Did I mention it's hyperdrive lights up and has sound effects? Sound effects IN ADDITION to the standard guitar ones (twang twangs). Still, no word if it can make the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsnips. "You mean parsecs?" I don't know, do I? "You've never seen Star Wars, have you?" Ha, only The Wrath of Khan.

Lockheed F-35 program head to retire
- Tweet
- Share this
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Tom Burbage, a former Navy fighter pilot who ran Lockheed Martin Corp's (LMT.N) F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program for 13 years, plans to retire at the end of March, Lockheed said on Thursday.
"After 32 years of working with Lockheed Martin and legacy divisions, Tom Burbage has decided to retire. His impact to the F-35 Program and other areas of aeronautics is immeasurable," said Lockheed spokeswoman Laura Siebert.
Siebert said no successor had been announced yet, but Steve O'Bryan, who oversees international programs for the F-35, is widely seen as the likely candidate to take over from Burbage.
Burbage, who had long signaled his plans to retire this year, joined Lockheed in 1980 after 11 years of active duty in the Navy, where he logged more than 3,000 flight hours in 38 types of military aircraft. He retired as a captain in the Naval Reserve in 1994.
Burbage took over as executive vice president and general manager of the F-35 program in 2000, and helped lead Lockheed's successful bid to win the biggest weapons program in history. It beat out Boeing Co (BA.N) for the contract -- now valued at $396 billion over the next two decades -- in October 2001.
Before that he ran Lockheed's F-22 fighter program and oversaw Lockheed's operations in Marietta, Georgia.
The change in leadership comes at a critical time for Lockheed, which is building three models of the new warplane for the U.S. military and eight countries helping to fund the plane's development: Britain, Canada, Australia, Denmark, Norway, Italy, Turkey, and the Netherlands.
All 25 Marine Corps versions of the F-35, which take off from shorter runways and land like a helicopter, are currently grounded after a problem with a fuel line during a training flight. Flights are expected to resume next week or sooner, according to two sources familiar with the situation.
Mounting budget pressures have intensified scrutiny of the F-35 program, which has been restructured three times in recent years to allow more time for technologies to mature before the company ramps up production.
Burbage gave a wide-ranging speech about the history of the F-35 program to the Royal Aeronautical Society at the British embassy in Washington in November, noting that it was 21 percent ahead of schedule with test flights at that point.
After the speech, he told Reuters that he felt positive about the F-35 program after the ups and downs of recent years.
"I'm pretty sanguine about most everything on this program," he said at the time. "It's all going to be fine. The progress that we're making right now is pretty dramatic, and that's in all areas."

Can the Mavericks turn around their first three game losing streak of the season against Aldridge, Lillard & Co.?
The Dallas Mavericks are the official sponsor of the 2014 Dallas St. Patrick's Day Parade & Festival thanks to a generous contribution from Mark Cuban.
