THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE SANDSTORM BW2 OU SAND STALL Hey, everyone! It's me again with another RMT. I always enjoy doing these. It's fun! Anyway, today, I will be featuring something that I've never done before in my entire competitive life: Sand Stall (I mean a Stall team). Now, it may not sound special to many of you, but it does for me! The first time I try making a stall team, I failed miserably. But this time, this is my second time making it and a more serious one... And I am surprised that it really works great! I mean really really great. So, without further ado, let's get right to it! -AT A GLANCE- -HOW I BUILD MY TEAM- I actually decide to first add Gliscor. Because he's my most favorite and easiest to use bulky Pokemon. I wanted to use it and have Substitute over Swords Dance to Toxic stall other Pokemon. Plus, to take hits... Especially from Terrakion. Then, I feel like I need a tank that can hit hard and recover up, so, I try adding Conkeldurr with Ice Punch over Payback because it looks cool and it's just for the sake of Gliscor, and maybe even other pesky Flying-Types that isn't Skarmory and Gyarados. Then I need another physically defensive Pokemon, as well as that thing being a Steel-Type that can phaze anything away, and set up Spikes so that my other Pokemon can set up Stealth Rock, which is none other than Skarmory. At last, I need a Fire-Type that can take hits too, and also able to Toxic, Roar and hit Celebi and Scizor without worrying too much. Heatran! He's the man. Plus, I don't need him learning Stealth Rocks because I got something else better in mind. Hehe. Bronzong. 3 Steel-Types, I know. But only 2 are weak to fire, and I got coverage for it, so I'm not too worried about it. I mainly have Bronzong to prepare for the Therian form Genies, Mamoswine, Scarf Mence and maybe other things too. He is also the one that sets up Stealth Rocks for me. So, yeah. He helps strengthen my team and resist any Rock-Type attacks. And I mainly mean a Stone Edge from Terrakion. Finally, I am completed with my very first stall team. I wanted to try out Dusclops because RARELY use Eviolite Pokemon, and I wanted to try out Dusclops because physical wall and special wall and all and he looks cool too. So there we go. I've been testing it and it never go well in my favor... I just simply got pounded more often than winning but finally, someone told me I will have a lot of problems with Reuniclus and offensive Water-Types, and I did. So I decide to remodel my team a little bit to combat against them. Now I am really complete with my team. I never asked for Sand, but in order to counter Reuniclus, I was forced to use Tyranitar. At first, I thought about using his Dream World ability to not get any sand up because of my Jellicent, but I'm like "Screw it!" and just use his normal ability for extra sand damage and have my Special Defenses boosted up to take more hits. I never knew that it works much better than I thought. Someone mention to me that Jellicent is there for offensive Water-Types and can do much better than Dusclops... and he was right. I'm done! -THE TEAM- Blade (Bronzong) @ Leftovers Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 SDef / 252 HP / 4 Atk Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Spd - Earthquake - Stealth Rock - Hidden Power [Ice] - Gyro Ball He's mainly my main lead. It's very odd to have a Bronzong as a lead, but I got nothing else safe to really lead off with. Don't ask me to lead off with Tyranitar just to get up Sand. Because I won't unless I know it is safe to. Plus, Tyranitar isn't meant to be a lead. Anyway, Bronzong can take hits from Thundurus-T, Tornadus-T and especially Landorus-T and fire off Hidden Power Ice, while I can take hits from Mamoswine and do a lot of damage with Gyro Ball. He's one of the few members I really need to get up Stealth Rocks and all. Without him, I can have quite a lot of trouble unless I've get rid of certain threats. ------------------------------ Dark Kiva (Tyranitar) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Sand Stream EVs: 252 HP / 192 SDef / 64 SAtk Sassy Nature - Pursuit - Crunch - Fire Blast - Superpower Originally before Tyranitar, it was a standard Bulk Up Conkeldurr set with Ice Punch over Payback, but it was replaced due to him not working well with my team and give me more losing streaks. With Tyranitar as a new replacement, he has really be the few wonders of my team and help with my stalling thanks to Sand damage. Plus, he can take on against one of the few really dangerous things that can harm my team, a Reuniclus. Fire Blast is a filler move, really. Crunch is standard, Pursuit is for the obvious trapping and Superpower is there to hit Terrakion, Heatran, and other stuff that I can't remember right now. What set I feel like replacing for Tyranitar (Move your mouse to reveal the content) What set I feel like replacing for Tyranitar (open) What set I feel like replacing for Tyranitar (close) Tyranitar (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Sand Stream EVs: 200 HP / 192 SDef / 52 Atk / 64 SAtk Sassy Nature - Pursuit - Crunch - Ice Beam / Fire Blast - Earthquake I do have thoughts about replacing it with a new Tyranitar set. This set may seem a bit odd without Max HP, but it is what I need to 2HKO Reuniclus. If he decide to Calm Mind, I Crunch, then I kill. Trick Room without CM? Cool, Crunch again. I can take Focus Blast, so it's not a huge issue for me. Since I have yet to even use Fire Blast for Tyranitar, Ice Beam might help for the genies that isn't Landorus, or Gliscor because I believe I can take one Earthquake that isn't boosted. Or I am just being stupid with Ice Beam because I got Bronzong already, so I might keep Fire Blast but replace Superpower for Earthquake. The other two moves are standard, so yeah. ------------------------------ Sasword (Gliscor) (M) @ Toxic Orb Trait: Poison Heal EVs: 244 HP / 178 Def / 88 Spd Impish Nature - Substitute - Ice Fang - Earthquake - Protect He's pretty much the same Gliscor EV spread I always use. It has always worked better for me over the standard EV spread. Anyway, you already should know what Earthquake and Ice Fang does and what is it for, so I won't explain. But For Substitute, it is used for stalling longer on my opponent if they are poisoned and sand is up and all. And also predict my opponent's switch, have a Substitute and start attacking to give a bit of damage. I also need Protect for more stalling and to regain my HP back. So, yeah. He's there to take physical hits too. ------------------------------ Yu-Ki (Skarmory) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Sturdy EVs: 234 Def / 252 HP / 4 Atk / 20 Spd Impish Nature - Brave Bird - Roost - Spikes - Whirlwind He's the least used member of the team. I hardly have a safe switch in most of the time. Skarmory is there to do the standard things you guys know. And instead of max Defense stats, I took away 20 Defense EVs and add it for my Speed. Why? It's simple. I just want to outspeed any standard Skarmory set. I can Whirlwind first, Brave Bird, Roost first and whatever first. I already got enough Defense bulk to take hits anyway. What I feel like replacing over Skarmory (Move your mouse to reveal the content) What I feel like replacing over Skarmory (open) What I feel like replacing over Skarmory (close) Forretress (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Sturdy EVs: 176 Def / 252 HP / 80 SDef Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Spd - Volt Switch - Spikes - Rapid Spin - Gyro Ball Why I feel like replacing Forretress over Skarmory? I can Volt Switch to get a switch initiative, Gyro Ball to hurt Terrakion and... I can Rapid Spin away hazards that loves bothering me! While hazards are not a problem to me, it's always nice to clear away the annoyance and make things easier for me. While I may not be as physically bulky as Skarmory and I am unsure about taking a Banded Terrakion's hit to retaliate with a Gyro Ball, I still got Gliscor and spinner is what made me feel like replacing it. I'm not sure yet. I have problems about not being able to Whirlwind, and especially trying to Whirlwind out Reuniclus if he is boosted a lot and my Tyranitar is dead, but if my Skarmory is still on full health. ------------------------------ Core (Heatran) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Flash Fire EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SDef Calm Nature - Protect - Toxic - Roar - Flamethrower He's probably the most important and used member of my team. Protect is needed to get some health back and to scout to see what my opponent will do. Toxic is a must need move to combat against opposing bulky Pokemon that I can't take on against and to wear down certain things for the LOLs. Roar is to Roar out my opponent to let them take hazards damage or Rock them and their set up boosts to wore off. Plus, I can to be in a better and safer spot if my opponent overpredicts thinking that I would switch. Flamethrower is a the only standard offensive move I have. I pick it over Laval Plum is because it's much more effective and hits harder and all. I don't need the burn when I got Toxic already. I learn this idea from Faladran, and it really works. ------------------------------ Joker (Jellicent) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Cursed Body EVs: 248 HP / 216 Def / 44 Spd Bold Nature - Surf - Will-O-Wisp - Recover - Taunt Another member that I need and pairs up well with Heatran. The only problem I have with Jellicent is I can't wall any water Pokemon because I got no Water Absorb ability. Why? Because of Reuniclus. I needed Curse Body just to disable his psychic move, and he'll be lock into Focus Blast or something else. Not too worried about Shadow Ball, because a STAB Psychic or Psyshock does way more. I got enough Speed EVs to outspeed certain walls to Taunt them. Will-O-Wisp to burn mainly physical attackers and better over Scald because I prefer instant burn right away over hoping for a 30% chance of Scald burn. Surf gives me more offensive power too to hit harder. Recover is so standard, I don't even need to explain it already. What set I want to replace for Jellicent (Move your mouse to reveal the content) What set I want to replace for Jellicent (open) What set I want to replace for Jellicent (close) Jellicent (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Water Absorb EVs: 248 HP / 216 Def / 44 Spd Bold Nature - Surf - Will-O-Wisp - Recover - Taunt Keep in mind that I won't replace this set unless I replace Tyranitar's first. Because it works better and ensure I can counter Reuniclus with ease. Same moves, EV spread and all but his ability, because I can finally wall Water-Type Pokemon. Anyway, boy, I have never wrote anything this LONG before. I'm surprised I'm actually doing this. Anyway, we're not done yet. Now let's move on to the threat list. ------------------------------ -THREAT LIST- You might have noticed that I constantly mention about Reuniclus throughout my RMT thread. Well I got so many nightmares about him... Well it's not nightmares of me battling this thing and lose and all, it's just that I am paranoid about him if he'll do some serious harm to my team after a few people mention that he can threaten my team. I mainly have problems against Calm Mind set because he can keep boosting up, recover and attack me. Plus, he's so bulky. Trick Room is another problem, but not as worse as the standard Calm Mind set. I have yet to actually have any real problems with them, but I just can't stop being paranoid about them. Infernape! The king of wall breakers. While I have yet to have any real trouble with them, on paper, MixApe with Fire Blast, Close Combat, Hidden Power Ice and Grass Knot is a serious problem to my team. I know how much a Life Orb Grass Knot coming from a MixApe can do to a Jellicent, so that's why I am scared of it. While Reuniclus and Infernape have yet to give me a real problem, I can't stop being so paranoid about them and on paperwork, these things just can harm my team. Darn my mind. CLOSING Anyway, that is finally all now! Thank you so very much if you took your time out to read this, because you don't know how much it means to me. Please leave a suggestion and feedbacks about my team. I just love this team so much that I just had to make the best RMT for myself. I'll fix anything if I missed it or made a mistake.

whoo nice team! Quite solid in my opinion however I see things that could bother you. Here's the list of what I noticed: 1.) You lack a spinner (well, Forretress). Quite self explanatory actually. 2.) You have no stall breakers. Having one can also solve your Reuniclus problem. 3.) You are weak to stall breakers especially to opposing Gliscor as Ttar is your main attacker and Gliscor takes piss weak damage from it. 4.) You lack a revenge killer. Having one in a stall team is quite nice because you can kill wall breakers or those who have been stalled a bit but didn't die. 5.) Breloom could play around this team :P especially Toxic Orb variants. Well for the real rate that I'm gonna do, I'm going to try and solve those problems listed though I can't guarantee that my suggestions would work since I usually play stall in Ubers. First, change Bronzong to Amoonguss/Celebi. Amoongus has the advantage of being a Poison-type meaning he can absorb Toxic Spikes and isn't weak to U-turn unlike Celebi. It also has the perk of having Regenerator and the 100% accurate Spore meaning it can disable one member of your opponent's team for as good as the rest of the match. Celebi however, has a more reliable recovery in form of Recover and has a significantly higher Special Attack stat. It also has higher speed meaning it can destroy Volt-turn teams utilizing a Scizor. Celebi is also good if you decide to run Toxic Spikes in this team since it won't screw up Spore. In choosing any of the two, you can complete the infamous Fire-Grass-Water core that is incredibly hard to break and can aid your stalling process. Also, both are good checks to Breloom as they both resist Breloom's STABs. The next things are just minor suggestions. Put Stealth Rock on TTar. This is to make up for what you lost with Bronzong. Next, put Taunt over Ice Fang on Gliscor. This ensures that those you stall with Sub+Protect won't set up on you (you have no Toxic so they can freely set up) and that they can't heal or phaze you out. Dragon Tail can't phaze you since it's not strong anyway. After this, change Skarmory to the Forretress. Trust me, you WILL NEED a Rapid Spinner. But then in this case, use Pain Split over Gyro Ball. You won't be damaging much with Forry and you will need to preserve it thanks to not having a recovery move. The only thing I can't help you on is having a decent revenge killer. This would be entirely up to you. You can still opt not to have one to have a complete stall team. This is all. I hope I helped. tl;dr (Move your mouse to reveal the content) tl;dr (open) tl;dr (close) Bronzong --> Amoonguss/Celebi pros: FGW core and Breloom check cons: Less overall bulk than Bronzong Stealth Rock on TTar pros: you won't miss it cons: less coverage Taunt over Ice Fang on Gliscor pros: Stall breaker cons: you can't hit opposing Gliscor Skarmory --> Forretress pros: Rapid Spinner and more free Heatran switch in cons: no Roost and set-up bait Sets (Move your mouse to reveal the content) Sets (open) Sets (close) Amoonguss@Leftovers Ability: Regenerator EVs: 252 HP / 40 Def / 216 SpD Nature: Calm - Spore / Toxic - Stun Spore / Clear Smog - Giga Drain - Hidden Power Ice pros: Gets rid of Toxic Spikes and isn't weak to U-turn.

Hey, cool team man. First off, as you mentioned, Reuniclus looks like it can give you headaches. One way to deal with this is using a Support Mew over Bronzong. Mew is able to Taunt Calm Mind Reuniclus and disable Reuniclus from using Calm Mind and Recover. Mew also resists both of Calm Mind Reuniclus's attacks, Psychic and Focus Blast which is another bonus. If you want to give it a go the set consists of Taunt / Will-o-Wisp / Softboiled / Seismic Toss, 252 HP / 224 Defense / 32 Speed, a Bold Nature, and Leftovers. Mew can also shut down foes with Will-o-Wisp making it good to fend off physical attackers. Mew brings an important role of support + stallbreaking on your team. It can shutdown opponent's with Taunt who try and set up hazards which goes extremely well with Jellicent since it does not appreciate hazards. Switching over to Mew also allows you to use Water Absorb on Jellicent which is nice. Softboiled allows you to regenerate health making Mew very dangerous. Seismic Toss is a damage dealing move but it can honestly be changed to any damage dealing move to your comfort as Mew learns every move. It also blocks any Pokemon from using recovery moves which is very helpful. Mew's pleasing physical defense as well lets it take on Infernape well. It can burn it and render Close Combat useless and special attacks from it won't be doing that much anyways with Mew's Max HP EVs and a base 100 Special Defense. When Mew has burned Infernape, Infernape will be taking 28% damage a turn if it attacks from Burn + LO Recoil + Sand allowing it to dispose of Infernape quite easily. Now, by switching Bronzong to Mew, you lose Stealth Rocks, so I suggest changing Protect or Toxic on to Stealth Rock on Heatran. Hope I helped and good luck.
Hey, Cool team Bestow5000, it looks like a solid sand stall team. Asides from your aforementioned threats I really thought that opposing StallBreaking Jellicent would give you troubles, especially if it carries Shadow Ball. It can handily spread burn and toxic throughout your team, and taunt can shut down a lot of your members, and your tyranitar will not be doing much damage with that investment, especially if Scald decides to burn. Anyway, looking at your Gliscor set, I have to ask why running Ice Fang is self explantory? I think you want to use it for set up dragons, but really Gliscor has a far better way to get around them while also gaining utility against other pokemon that right look annoying for you, such as mentioned stallbreaker Jellicent. I suggest Toxic > Ice Fang on Gliscor to provide you with the infamous toxic stall strategy that makes Gliscor almost impossible to take down after he has toxiced an enemy, as you can use Substitute and protect in succession to gradually wear down the opposition until they succumb to sand and toxic damage. You recover off all used HP with toxic heal so you can stall for a long, long time. Looking at your threats, it seems to be like most Stall teams weaknesses. Espcially for your team, Starmie in rain and Mixed Wallbreake Infernape as well as the occasional SubSplit Gengar. Fortunately for you a moveset change within your team can fix these problems. I suggest changing your Tyranitar set to the ScarfTar set. Scarftar brings a blazing speed stat that surpasses positive base 115's to your team, and he is renowned for being one of stall's best friends. Fast and powerful pursuits cripple opposing frail pokemon, most notably fleeing Latios and Latias for you. He can reliably revenge kill Infernape with Earthquake, and generally eliminate many Pokemon that trouble your stall team. You still retain the Sand Stream that your current Tyranitar set up, while also adding an offensive twist to your team and as well as something that can help beat taunt abusers by not caring about taunt, and denting a lost of common abusers. Also, seconding all of Shining Latios's suggestions as they seems to wrap your team up real nicely!

Wow, sorry for the late reply. @pwnage77 Haha, don't worry. Any opposing Gliscor, Tyranitar, Breloom and maybe a few others are not a problem to me. They're an easy check or counter to me. I do like the sound of Amoonguss seeing that he is quite a nuisance and give me extra coverage from strong water attacks. I'm not sure about Stealth Rock on Tyranitar though, but what move do you recommend replacing? And Taunt on Gliscor can be a bit of headache because I can't touch anything with Levitate or Flying-Type Pokemon and I can't expect sand to wear them down slowly. I'll try out Forretress, too. Thanks! @Shining Latios Mew sounds nice, but the problem is, I can't touch Reuniclus that much, right? With only Seismic Toss, he can stall me on while it'll take me 5 Seismic Tosses to finish him off. Trick Room set really seems like a headache and Calm Mind set just makes the battle go on for too long. Shadow Ball Reuniclus can trouble it too. Mixed Infernape on the other hand under the sun, can do a serious ton of damage to her and Seismic Toss only does 100 damage to them which is not enough. So do you recommend Shadow Ball at least in order to hit those two hard enough? Including Slowbro and other stuff. I'm not sure. If I ever use Mew, I might replace Stealth Rock over Protect. Though that would give me less coverage and scouting or stall a bit longer. We'll see how it goes. Thanks too! @Asek Jellicent isn't a problem to me. Those are the times where I'll just send in Heatran to take one Scald and Toxic it, then I'll be in a good position. But a rain Jellicent might give me a bit of trouble, but not that much. However, I really like the sound of replacing Toxic over Ice Fang and your point there really means something. I'll sure test that out! I'm not too sure about ScarfTar too but after what you said and I examined it, it does sound pretty cool and effective. Will try it out too. Thanks a lot!!!
Try a SpD jirachi over your bronzong. It is a very good switch in to all reuniclus sets. Try a choice scarf Tyranitar to revenge Therians and special attacker landorus. Maybe try ice punch and earthquake over stone edge and superpower because of landorus, who can beat down your whole team with focus blast and earth power. Use toxic over ice fang on gliscor for conkeldurr. Jirachi can also keep forretress healthy if you do decide to use him.
You have a nice start to a solid defensive team. Defensive teams have always been my favorite because the deep teambuilding :p The Problem First off you have big weakness to the Electric-types of the tier, namely Thunderus-T and Rotom-W. Thunderus-T annihilates your team with its great coverat and Electric-STAB while Rotom-W can be a pain with a Water-STAB that only Jellicent can take. Powerful rain-boosted water attacks and CM Keldeo will do you in too, since they are so powerful Jellicent will crumble without any Sp. Def investment. Taunt Gyarados is also a threat since it has the ability to completely shut down Jellicent. Reuniclus is a threat to you (no uses Grass Knot Infernape) to you since Tyranitar's Crunch will not be doing enough damage and Jellicent's Cursed Body is relying on chance to take it out. SD Techniloom will have its way with this team, being able to annihilate Gliscor with a boosted Bullet Seed and take out a weakened Skarmory with Mach Punch (possibly even Sleep it). You are going to have trouble with Sun teams that utilize Dugtrio, especially if they run Genesect alongside it since Heatran and TTar can both be trapped. Lastly, you don't have a Rapid Spinner which is crucial to prevent your team from getting worn down. The Solution To resolve these issues, I suggest Tentacruel>Brongzong , , and Latias>Heatran (sorry sand). I could have gone further but I don't want to change your team too much. That is the difficulty with rating stall teams :\ Hide (Move your mouse to the hide area to reveal the content) Show Hide Hide Hide Tentacruel (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Rain Dish EVs: 248 HP / 220 Def / 40 Spd Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Toxic Spikes - Scald - Ice Beam - Rapid Spin Latias (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Dragon Pulse - Roar - Recover - Calm Mind Roar CM Latias does a couple of things for your team, first it adds an additional Water-resist to your team and a checks several important threats such as SD Breloom, CM Keldeo, and Infernape. In addition it can act as your CM Reuniclus counter. Just engage in a CM War with Reuniclus and when you are both at +4 you can just Roar it out. Speaking of Roar, it replaces Heatran as a phazer to wrack up entry hazard damage from the Sp. Def end. Most importantly CM Latias adds an offensive presence to your team to break up opposing teams after enough entry hazard damage has been wrakced up. Latias high speed also gives you an option to hit Pokemon that you may need to revenge, like Taunt-SD Haxorus. Tentacruel provides the crucial Rapid Spin support needed for your team to win weather wars. While Tentacruel does overlap with Jellicent a bit, but it provides some key things over other Rapid Spinners. First, it access to Toxic Spikes, which will be very important to utilize against opposing stall breakers like Mew, Sableye, and Jellicent. Of course they also chip down at the opposing team even more. Tentacruel also has a handy Poison-typing to remove Toxic Spikes on the switch-in, which is crucial if Jellicent wants to stallbreak effectively. 40 Spe EV's are used to outspeed Taunt-SD Gliscor by two points and to hit him with an Ice Beam. Small Changes Use a 252 HP / 252 SDef / 4 Spd CarefulSp. Def Tyranitar with Chople Berry. This will give you the chance to eliminate and trap Tornadus-T and Gengar who could be problematic for your team. I understand that you would like to keep sand on your team, but if you don't feel obligated to you should put a Sp. Def Jirachi with Stealth Rock in its place (body slam is unnecessary so you could fit in protect to heal better with wish). Use Shed Shell on Skarmory and move your Spe EV's into Defense. Shed Shell will make sure DragMag teams can have an easy time with you. You can escape Wobb and already have a super-fast phazer in Latias, so the speed is unecessary. Those Defense EV's will make sure you aren't 2hko'ed by Dragonite's Fire Punch without Leftovers. Use a 240 HP / 176 Def / 92 Spd spread on Jellicent and change its ability to Water Absorb. The extra speed will allow you to taunt minimium speed Skarmory and break stall a whole lot better. Also Water Absorb really helps against Rain teams. You can use Night Shade to beat Gyarados and Volcarona (with Toxic Spikes) more easily. Good luck.
@Asterat Yeah, Asek mention about a Scarf Tyranitar before you. But your movesets look more interesting and effective. I will try it out. Now that you mention it too, yeah, special Landorus-I can seem to cause quite a problem to my team. I'm not sure about Jirachi, though. Because that will make my team more weaker to Mamoswine without Bronzong just for Reuniclus because Mamoswine would become the new threat to my team. Thanks, though! Will take your advice with that ScarfTar moveset! @ThePillsburyDoughBoy No worries. Thundurs-T ain't a problem to me. I always find a way to deal with it with Tyranitar (I will ensure he stays at full health just for him) and Rotom-W isn't a problem too if he's Scarf. But the bulky set does give me a bit of trouble, but I always try to to keep Heatran at full health just to take one Hydro Pump if he does outspeed me, and Toxic and Tyranitar to give damage. Other than that, yeah, you got a point with Rotom-W. SD Techniloom is still not a problem to me. Even of the opposing Stealth Rock at set up on my side of the field, I can always bring in Skarmory to force a switch. They never seem to dare stay in. It's hard to replace Tentacruel over Bronzong. While it does provide me with a Spinner, strong fighting attacks and others, I just become extra weaker to Mamoswine which is starting to become really common in BW2. But, I do like the sound of that Latias. I'm just going to have a bit of trouble with Scizor and Celebi with Thunder Wave. But other than that, it does seem interesting to replace. The Tyranitar EV spread, I'm not too sure. But I always wanted to try Chople Berry but then I am somehow paranoid about dying first and losing the weather war. Shed Shell is an add choice for Skarmory, but I would usually always never bring in Skarmory as long as there is a Magnezone. Plus, some Leftovers recovery seems more reliable. The EV spread for Jellicent looks neat. I'll try it out! If I ever use Latias, I will change my ability to Water Absorb too. I'll still keep the standard moves and especially Recovery and Will-O-Wisp. Thanks for the suggestions!

Denver, Colo. - Jan. 30, 2009 - The contestants of the 61st annual Make It With Wool competition had some fun in the sun while presenting their winning ensembles at the American Sheep Industry Association (ASI)/National Lamb Feeders Association annual convention in San Diego, Calif, on Jan. 24. The designers taking top honors at this year's national competition were Marisa Linton of Mount Olive, N.C., and Meredith Olds of Manhattan, Kansas.
Linton won the title of First Place Junior 2009 Wool Ambassador wearing a four-piece ensemble that she constructed. Her choice of red wool tricotine, red and black wool-blend twill, black Merino rib-knit fabric and black mohair yarn designed into her garments is a testament to the skills she has acquired in learning how to shear sheep and from her spinning class, which developed her skills in fiber preparation and use. In addition to other prizes, Linton's winnings included a $1,000 scholarship from Pendleton Woolen Mills and a $500 scholarship from the ASI Women. The junior division was open to youth ages 13 to 16.
Olds was selected as the First Place Senior 2009 Wool Ambassador. She selected a plaid mohair fabric as the focal piece for her ensemble. Olds used a wide variety of textures and colors to make her outfit one of interest and versatility - 100 percent extra-fine Merino yarn for the knitted scarf, wool jersey for her top, dark green worsted Pendleton wool for her skirt and an open-weave textured purple for the jacket. The coat, jacket and skirt are all fully lined. Among other prizes, Old's first-place winnings included a $1,500 scholarship from the ASI Women. The senior division was open to youth ages 17 to 24. Olds is the only contestant to win both the junior national competition and the senior national competition in recent years.
Carrie Holter of Jefferson, Md., and Natalie Dones of Lexington, Neb., won First Runner-Up Junior Division and Senior Division, respectively. Holter constructed a mulberry coat of Pendleton boucle and a matching fitted jacket and a magenta wool-gabardine lined dress. Dones used crimson red wool fabric to create a coat with a convertible collar, front pockets, cuffed sleeves and a front-button closing.
Kathy Holter of Jefferson, Md., was named the 2009 National Make It With Wool Adult Winner. She combined many different fabrics to create her stylish four-piece ensemble. Holter added couture details such as Hong Kong seam finishes, braided button stems, custom labels and red bias trim along the facing of the coat lining. The red Eisenhower jacket is accented by a touch of black along the facing and the red and black Pendleton wool pencil skirt is fully lined and features knife pleats at the hemline for a chic touch to this classic skirt style. Her hand-knitted baby alpaca mock turtle-neck sweater completes the look. As part of her winnings, Holter won an all-expense-paid trip to the national competition in San Diego.
The winner of the Fashion/Apparel Design Award was Danny Nguyen, a fashion/apparel design student at Houston Community College in Texas, whose inspiration for the colorful skirt and jacket came from reading a fashion magazine with a Valentino campaign. He modeled his creation after a suit that had structure, volume and molded to the model's body which emphasized her curves but at the same time maintained a solid composition. Nguyen drew a simple-looking design which was actually very complex and detailed at the seam line. By incorporating angled patterns onto the picture, there were many pieces layered on top of one another. However, once the pieces were put together, it became a very solid piece as the angles straightened out and everything became a straight line. The suit looks crisp and clean and the mohair gives it additional volume causing the garment to appear fluffy. Nguyen's winnings include a $1,000 scholarship for his winning outfit from the American Wool Council and an all-expense-paid trip to the national competition.
A total of 57 junior and senior finalists representing 30 states modeled their creations at the national competition. Some 939 contestants nationwide entered competitions at the state level and utilized more than 2,668 yards of wool fabric and 257 skeins of yarn to create their garments.
Other winners and their awards include:

How Do I Regain Lost Root?
Superuser notifies me that my app (Link2D) has been granted SU permissions. However, when I start that app it throws a popup stating "Link2SD has not yet managed to obtain root access." It appears that all my apps have lost their root permissions even though they are displayed as "allowed" on the Superuser app list. Furthermore, when I launch Gingerbreak it simply says "Loading...looking for Superuser" and never comes out of that mode. Rebooting doesn't help anything.
I'd like to know the easiest way to repair the broken root on my Android 2.2.1 LG Vortex. Thanks. - 01-01-2013, 06:36 AM Thread Author #2
Re: How Do I Regain Lost Root?
1.) Uninstalled Gingerbreak
2.) Downloaded and installed Universal Android AIO Flasher v1.40 b from XDA
3.) Used unroot feature of AIO
4.) Reinstalled and rooted with Gingerbreak
The only remaining issue is Superuser keeps saying my binary is outdated. When I update, it fails when "Making sure new su works..." Rooting permissions appear to work normally so I'll deal with that issue at another time.

Headphones vs. Earpods
Anyone made the switch?
The new pods are a little uncomfortable in my ears and I'm not getting a great sound from them (unlike the last Apple earphones, which were great for me). I've heard some folks talking about spending more for a better set (in ear) and wondered if there are any that have remote/controls on the wire like the new earpods. Sennheiser look great but would prefer to not have to keep getting the ipod touch out of my pocket and switching it on just to change tracks or volume, etc. Any ideas? |

Bought the new Earpods specifically to test them out, have to say I'm quite satisfied with them. They fit perfectly in my ear, so I'm glad about that.
Still have a pair of cheap Pink Sony earphones, and I switch between both frequently. |

I don't use Apple's.
Bose over the ear active noise canceling for airplane travel. Shure E215 in ear, they are very comfortable, extremely good for the price and fully serviceable. http://www.shure.com/americas/products/earphones-headphones/se-models/se215-sound-isolating-earphones There are other models more for talking, but both are great for listening and enjoying your music and also to talk over the phone. The Bose comes with 2 cable sets, one with the mic/controls. And the shure you have to buy the accessorie cable to have the mic/controls. Great that you can decide what is best. If you are in Europe explore sennheisser they also have great products. |

I've never liked the earbud style. They always fall out of my ears. I prefer the ones that loop around each earlobe. They stay in and never fall out. Since apple doesn't make an around the ear style, I got the Adidas brand in white. The ones with a mic for $79.

I've tried using the ear pods and they hurt my ears after a while. I have a pair of Beats that I use for any long journeys to block out any external noise etc. For short term use I use the headphones that came with my 4S, seeing as they have a mic and volume controls they're perfect for what I need.

I, too, bought seperate earpods with mic just to test the sound and i needed one for my Ipad. (even though i already holded 2 apple earphone myself)
It fits very well, i sometimes use it for more than an hour without realizing any uncomfortables. The sound quality is a let down though, still alternatives earphones are in the same price range or higher and earpods has the best warrenty. I think its a good get if you dont currently own earphone with remote. |

I've been through probably 30+ pairs of phones in the last ten years and will be sticking with my current two sets for as long at they last.
Atomic Floyd SuperDarts are amazing. They're hands down the single best sounding set of phones I've used, twin driver and punchy as hell. Also as a plus they're made of solid stainless steel, really well built, super comfy and have pause, volume and skip controls, plus a mic. Strangely I've had to use the smallest earbuds on these which I never do on any other phones but seal and sound amazing with these in. Not cheap but will last for years and trust me they sound stunning. Otherwise go for some big cans, Beyerdynamic DT770s sound amazing too, but you would like like a complete t**t if you wear them out of the house, but trust me they sound great (also used in a lot of REAL production studios (ie not liek most of the 'studio' branded garbage out there) for film, tv and broadcasting, bbc, channel 4 etc etc). If you really like music it is so worth spending the extra for a set like these, without going to crazy expenses of 4 drivered Shure's etc. |

What could be more classic than a corner bar in Fells Point? You know the kind—a long bar in the front and a small dining room in the rear with a side entrance that might once have been for "ladies."
Todd Conner's fits the bill and goes a step farther. It's part of the new dining trend that offers not only traditional bar food but also sophisticated meals with fresh ingredients and interesting twists on old favorites.
If you want a beer and burger, you're in the right place. There are about eight beers on tap, from Miller Lite to Blue Moon. And there is the Bond St. Burger ($8.99), which you can customize with a dozen different toppings. But diners will also find tuna steak, salmon, crab cakes, and tempting nightly specials.
In warmer weather, Todd Conner's offers outside dining on its Aliceanna Street side and was doing a lively business inside and out on a recent weeknight. Inside, the rear dining room has about 10 tables. The decor is arty and contemporary with pale yellow walls, black tables and chairs, and dramatic photos on the walls.
As we settled in, we couldn't resist starting with the Wolf Down These Petals ($5.99), a whole onion, quartered, tempura battered, and deep-fried. It was amazingly sweet and delicious, and served with a dreamy horseradish-ranch dipping sauce. We can see how the dish got its name. It's hard not to clean the plate.
Nikki's mixed green salad (named after co-owner Nikki Popovich) is one of the restaurant's signature dishes. The large size ($8.99; small, $4.99) makes for a great light entrée, especially with grilled tuna ($3.99 extra). The field greens are extremely fresh, and the addition of sweet grapes, onion, feta, sunflower seeds, and vinaigrette creates an exciting combination of flavors.
For heartier appetites, another signature dish, mac 'n' cheese ($10.99), is guaranteed to satisfy. A large bowl of penne pasta is coated with a thick, tangy cheese sauce and topped with Parmesan and bread crumbs. Diners can also add chicken, shrimp, tuna, crab meat, or portobello mushrooms for an extra boost. We chose crab ($6.99) and considered it the ultimate comfort food, though, for the price, there could have been more crab meat. Sadly, the accompanying side order of broccoli was tasteless.
Homemade desserts vary daily. From three offerings, we chose chocolate bread pudding and a berry tart ($4.99 each). We decided to save the decadent-sounding deep-fried cheesecake for another time. The berry tart, served with generous dollops of luscious whipped cream, was appropriately wonderful with an assortment of strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries atop a thin layer of pastry cream and light crust. The bread pudding was a sweet finish and better than grandma's. A flash dip in the deep fryer gave the dish the slightest crust.
We found Todd Conner's a comfortable place to temporarily forget the cares of the world while enjoying reasonably priced, well-prepared food from a menu with a variety of choices. The friendly service is also a plus.
The restaurant also serves lunch and Sunday brunch and has a children's menu. There's a Yappy Hour on Tuesdays, when humans who bring their dogs—outside seating only—get 25 percent off their food check. When we were there, several canines were enjoying water, served appropriately in dog bowls, while their keepers lapped up people food.

The laptop hums well past midnight. The Diet Mountain Dew flows into my cup, Niagara-like in its volume and pace. The up-tempo '70s soul music peps through my headphones, keeping me awake as the minutes pass like seconds. There's so much steam rising from vents outside my hotel-room window that a frigid fog seems to hang in suspension over the nearby, domed football stadium. Each step on the sidewalk is accompanied by the crunch of salt and ice; each newscast leads its sports report with college or high-school basketball.
It must be February in Indianapolis.
Combine time.
So far, this has been a placid trip, considering how some of my voyages to far-flung destinations took turns that would have made Odysseus or Uncle Traveling Matt blanch.
Turns out that Wednesday's trip here was as uneventful as My Dinner With André.
OK, I confess — that was simply superfluous. But when you're reading a blog entry posted under categories like "YouTube Oddities" and "Self-Indulgence," you're entering at your own risk.
Anyhow, this is Combine VI for me. Less than quite a few, but more than numerous others who fill virtually every hotel room within this city's underrated downtown, every one of which is looking for something or someone different — or so it seems.
Obviously, scouts and coaches are looking for boundless potential to reveal itself among the 300-plus players in town. But even those who will spend most of the next four days in the media room are searching for divergent storylines, from the college writers covering a standout from the school on their beat one more time to the NFL reporters who stand in the hallways of the Indiana Convention Center, looking to flag down a coach or two.
Me? I'm somewhere in between. I'll check the hallways, but I'll also linger in the media room, waiting for the rookies-to-be to arrive for inquisition. This isn't just about the events of the weekend; this is about content collection, trolling for features and storylines to spotlight over the next two months.
At one time, this event was the hidden gem of the NFL calendar, an event that unfolded quietly, with media limited to those who chose to hang out in a downtown hotel lobby to catch players as they passed by. In my previous job at NFL.com, I sat in the office as a staff representative roamed about the lobby to snag some of the rookies-to-be for interviews and on-line chat sessions over the phone. It was in this work that I learned how to spell "Laveranues" without having to consult a roster.
Three years later, in my first offseason on DenverBroncos.com, I actually came to Indianapolis for the first time and found that the event had begun its unfettered expansion. Lobby stalking was out, replaced by milling about a convention-center hallway waiting for players and NFL coaches to wander by.
To me, this weekend is Exhibit "A" in the case for the NFL's preeminent spot in the nation's sports landscape. (Exhibits "B" and "C" might be the draft itself and the Senior Bowl.) What the league has managed to do is to construct an attention-snatching event almost out of thin air, thus keeping itself atop newspaper sports sections and SportsCenter broadcasts at a time when the next round of actual games remains months in the future.
No other U.S. professional sports league has a longer offseason; the NFL's nearly-six-month downtime from any kind of gameplay — preseason or regular season — dwarfs the the respites of MLB (three and a half months), the NBA (three months) and the NHL (two and a half months) that follow their respective championship series. Thus spawns the need to fill the gap, into which steps the draft, the rising prominence of organized team activities and, of course, this weekend's Combine.
USA Today calls it the "NFL's giant draft commercial," and it would be hard to disagree. Should there be some superlative performances this weekend, it would become a far more effective commercial than anything that aired as chips met dip on Super Bowl Sunday.
And that's why I'm sure mine won't be the only laptop still manned past midnight this weekend.

Mending the Hole in Your Holiness
March 6th, 2014
by admin · Filed Under: Guidance · Inspiration · Love · Prayer · Spiritual Health · forgiveness · healing
When we talk about mending the hole in our holiness, we're talking about recognizing our oneness with God, truly getting to know God's presence within us. To know God's presence within another person means getting to know the real of that person. And then we begin to mend that hole in our holiness, that leak which sometimes causes us to see ourselves and others as not whole.
"Holy" comes from the root word, "whole." Whole and holy mean the same thing. So when we are feeling complete and whole, we are indeed holy. Our nature is wholeness, so our very nature is holiness. It's only when we see ourselves as separate that we have that hole in our holiness. So we need to mend that hole today, and usually the greatest hole is caused by our relationships with other people.
We may often get frustrated by other people; we sometimes see them as obstacles to our feeling our oneness with God. So that frustration and concern grows in thinking that in order to be spiritual we have to be set apart, we have to be away from those people who bother us so much.
How can we be spiritual in the middle of the world? Remember Jesus said, "I am in the world but not of it." We, too, can have a consciousness of God while we're in the world. Then we're able to recognize God's presence within ourselves and within others at all times.
Holiness is found in relationship, not separate from it. That's where our strength is, and it's where our holiness comes into expression through us. God works through ordinary people. We find that everyone in the scriptures who began to demonstrate God's presence did so in relationship with people. We also find that very often they were reluctant heroes.
Such a one was Gideon, in the book of Judges. He's a young man, a farmer. The Israelites at that time were always being hounded by the Midianites and were afraid that they would always be stealing their food and so on. So here was Gideon. He was threshing the grain in the wine-press house rather than outside; he was hiding, looking around over his shoulder for the Midianites coming to steal his grain.
It says in the scripture that an angel of the Lord came to him and said to him, "Hail, Oh you mighty man of valor!" And here was this unlikely young farmer, hiding from the Midianites and threshing his grain.
There was a play about Gideon that was produced many years ago, and it was given a modern twist. As the angel of the Lord comes and says, "Hail, Oh you mighty man of valor!" the farmer turns around and straightens up, holding his back, and says "I? You cannot be serious!"
And that's often how it is. God calls reluctant heroes; we get chosen in the midst of relationships and in surprising ways. God calls us to be something or do something that we'd rather not do.
I was talking to a man, a father, some time ago, and he was telling me about his spiritual practice and how he'd been getting up early to do his meditation. He'd taken time to read some scripture and have some meditation and then, he said, "I blew it today! I got up, I had my meditation, I was doing great. Then I came out of the room and tripped over the kids' toys that they hadn't put away . . . and I lost my temper . . . right after doing my meditation!"
It's in the midst of relationships and in the midst of frustration, in the midst of all these happenings, that we are reminded of God's presence. We are reminded not to "lose it"! We're given many opportunities to become aware and to come back to our spirituality.
And we find God's presence breaking through in many wonderful ways in our homes. Our homes are places of repair and sometimes we have the frustrations; but we also have the joys of realization.
Do you remember Brother Lawrence in the little book, Practicing the Presence? Brother Lawrence was a monk living in a monastery and working in the kitchen; he also found God in the kitchen. He said, "The time of business does not with me differ from the time of prayer, and in the noise and clatter of my kitchen while several persons are at the same time calling for different things, I possess God in as great tranquility as if I were upon my knees at the Blessed Sacrament."
Now that takes a lot of doing. But that was the joy found by him, that in the midst of things he could find God's presence. And for people who say they have trouble recollecting their mind during prayer, he had this to say: "One way to recollect the mind in time of prayer is not to let it wander too far at other times." That's a beautiful and gentle reminder, not to let it wander too far at other times. Keep reminding yourself that God is present, present in the situation, present in you, present in the other person.
So where do we start in mending this hole in our holiness in the midst of relationships? We have to start with forgiveness, and forgiveness starts with ourselves; it starts with acceptance of ourselves as we are. We can only accept others as we begin to accept ourselves.
That's often the problem, we're at war within ourselves because we don't accept ourselves, we don't love ourselves, and we have not forgiven ourselves. So we project that same anger, that same fear, that same destructiveness out toward others and we make their lives a misery too.
So, for any of us to become compassionate toward others we have to first be accepting of ourselves. Then we are also able to be accepting of others.
Remember, Jesus said, "Love your neighbor as yourself." You can only love your neighbor as you love yourself, in the same way that you love yourself. So the more you're able to accept yourself and love yourself, you are able to love your neighbor.
There are three destructive practices that we need to be aware of, which to overcome we must come into forgiveness:
The first one is blame. We tend to blame others or we blame ourselves for things that go wrong. Blaming is a really destructive practice; it diminishes the wholeness of someone. It diminishes our own wholeness, our own holiness, and it diminishes the wholeness or holiness of others. When we blame others, it ties us to that other person; the resentment that we have binds us to that other person.
Author Emmet Fox said, "When you hold resentment against anyone, you are bound to that person by a cosmic link, a real tough mental chain. You are tied by a cosmic tie to the thing that you hate; the one person, perhaps in the whole world, whom you most dislike is the very one to whom you are attaching yourself by a hook that is stronger then steel."
When we blame, we are giving other people power and control over us, for as Emmet Fox says, we are tying ourselves to that other person with bonds stronger than steel. Say for yourself, "I am no longer going to give you control over the way I think or how I behave, or how I'll behave in the future. I am taking total responsibility for my own life." And that means being forgiving of yourself and forgiving of others.
The second destructive practice is revenge, the action that comes from blaming. The thoughts of blame that then move into revenge; we want to hurt that person who hurt us. But when we do it, it disappoints us. And when it's all over, we feel mean. It's not benefiting us at all, we still feel bad about ourselves.
You see, forgiveness is the only thing that can free. It can free us from that awful feeling of hate and of self-destructive attitudes that we sometimes carry with us.
The third destructive practice is judgment. We tend to judge others, then we get into blaming and then into revenge. Lack of judgment is forgiveness in action, when we accept others as they are rather than judging them from our point of view. Judgment really defines who we are, not who the other person is. It defines our own likes and dislikes. So we need to change from judgment to acceptance, and that is forgiveness in action.
Wayne Dyer tells a story about his sister-in-law who made a beautiful cushion for him and embroidered on there are the words, "I'm allowed." It was a reminder to him that he is allowed to live his life as he wants it to be lived, and he's allowed to make mistakes and allowed to learn from those mistakes.
Remind yourself of that. So many people live as though they are not allowed to do things, not allowed to make mistakes, and so they heap a pile of guilt upon themselves. Remember, the past is over; let it go. You're allowed to make mistakes, you're allowed to live your life as you see fit. Be gentle with yourself. Love yourself, and love yourself in relationship because it's in relationship that we really find and experience our holiness and our spirituality.
Start today with the realization, "I am enriching my inner journey through relationships; I am mending the hole in my holiness."
Remember, God is Blessing You, Right Now!

What It Is
The Baby Genius Sing-Along School Bus, from Jakks Pacific's Tollytots division, plays music and bus sound effects. The bus has real-rolling wheels so kids can push the bus along and take the three included Baby Genius figures (Bubbles, Rex, and DJ the driver) to school. When it's time to make a stop and pick up the figures, flip out the stop sign on the bus and fold down the ramp so the figures can get inside. Press the driver for character phrases, songs, sounds, and lights. The top of the bus is open, allowing kids easy access to play inside the bus. The Sing-Along School Bus also comes with a free Baby Genius CD.
Why It's Fun
Kids will enjoy pushing the bus along and pretending to take the Baby Genius characters to school. The lights, sounds, and music (including "The Wheels on the Bus") will keep kids engaged as they play.
Who It's For
The Baby Genius Sing-Along School Bus is for ages 12 months and up.
What To Be Aware Of
Three AAA batteries are included, but these power the in-store try-me features. It is recommended that you replace them before you play for best results.

NEW YORK NURSE: July/August 2008
by Anne Watson Bongiorno, PhD, RN, Chairperson, NYSNA Council on Nursing Education
Ensuring the health in patients and clients is the goal of nursing. But as a profession we sometimes fall short in creating healthy environments for ourselves. We successfully attract talented nurses from diverse applicant pools, yet struggle to retain these graduates in the workforce.
Today, the typical nurse is white, middle class, female, and middle-aged. The average nursing professor has similar characteristics. This generation faced oppression by patriarchal medical and hospital systems. Over the years, this created an institutional environment beset with dissonance turned inward on itself. Today, the profession has successfully navigated hierarchal systems but we continue to work in an atmosphere rife with bullying and oppression. These behaviors are so institutionalized that few seasoned nurses recognize the problem.
New graduates and nursing students are bright, articulate professionals. They are quick to recognize our inhospitable schools and workplaces encumbered by acts of horizontal violence. Too often, nurses are subjected to covert use of rumor, innuendo, and subtle harassment that creates an environment in which one must conform or leave. Students from diverse backgrounds fail at breathtakingly high rates. Novice nurses are leaving the profession in droves.
Recruiting and retaining the best and brightest professionals is the key to our nation's health and, in part, to solving our nursing shortage. It is time for nurses to take the responsibility for creating a nurturing environment for diverse students and novice nurses.
Good first steps include simply greeting students, offering patience and support to novices, encouraging challenges to the status quo, and actively working with management to create a system that supports staff with sufficient time to be good mentors.
Additionally, as a profession we need to look within ourselves to examine our biases and worldviews, actively promote a culture of inclusion and pluralism, and recognize the dynamics of oppression. We should accept no less than a zero tolerance policy for horizontal violence. This is one way to help solve our nursing crisis that is right here, right now, and within each of us.

At the world's largest indoor show for classic vehicles – TechnoClassica – Volvo Cars Heritage will focus on the fact that the Amazon Estate celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. The show is held March 21 to 25 in Essen, Germany.
2012 marks the 50th anniversary of the elegant five-door Amazon. It was introduced in 1962. Therefore, all the six exhibited cars on the Volvo stand will be beautfiul Amazon estates in a variety of interesting versions:– a 1964 two-owner car with 80,000 genuine kilometers,– a 1967 car that has been running on electricity for 20 years,– a 1967 car that has been modified to 600 hp and named "Sweden's hottest Volvo",– a 1968 car in bright red that has been a fire chief's vehicle,– a 1969 police car, equipped with every piece of original equipment, and finally– a 1969 car, the last Amazon estate made, from October 1969.
Swedens hottest Volvo – the 600 hp Amazon estate of Mattias Vöcks – is one of six Amazon estates on the Volvo Cars Heritage stand at the TechnoClassoca show in Essen.
Responsible for Volvo Cars participation at the TechnoClassica is Volvo Cars Heritage, the department that caters for and promotes the history and heritage of the company and its cars. Volvo Cars Heritage and the extraordinary Amazon Estate display are located in Hall 3, stand number 3.0-257.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Xavier Women's Club Soccer is currently preparing for the 2013-2014 season. We are finalizing our schedule with opponents, but games this fall will include Dayton, Miami, Cincinnati, Kent State and a trip to Michigan.
This June, Kappa Kappa Socca traveled to Virginia Beach to play in the North American Sand Soccer Championships and placed 3rd! The tournament was played over 2 days and included over 900 teams from several countries.
About the team: Our main season is in the fall and we compete against other teams from all across the Midwest. We also play friendly games in the spring against teams we may not have a chance to play in the fall. For the past 2 years during the winter, we have created in indoor team and play at Wall2Wall in Mason, Ohio. Last year, KappaKappaSocca won the Women's Tuesday night division and We Will XU finished 3rd in the Sunday Co-ed A division.
Practices are held two times a week at night, and may vary due to field availability.
Our schedule for fall 2013 will be determined at our league meeting in March and finalized throughout the summer. Please take note of these games and plan accordingly!
Congrats to our board members that have been elected for the 2013-2014 school year: Emily Spring, Kelly Clark, Emma Bradford, Cassie Alden and Gabby Hitchcock.
Also, be sure to like Xavier Women's Club Soccer on Facebook and join our OrgSync page!

Officers: Emily Spring (Junior), Kelly Clark (Senior), Emma Bradford (Senior), Gretchen Fischer (Junior)
