List of men's national association football teams
This is a list of the men's national association football teams in the world. It consists of all association football teams representing recognized and semi-recognized sovereign states, as well as other representative teams which are members of Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the world's football governing body, or a FIFA-affiliated continental confederation. Excluded from the list are teams representing sub-national entities that are not members of the organisations mentioned above, or teams representing unrecognized states.
Members of FIFA affiliated confederations[edit]
This section lists the current:
- 209 men's national football teams affiliated to FIFA, through their national football associations.
- 13 men's national football teams who are members or associate members of one of the FIFA affiliated continental confederations, but who are not members of FIFA.[1]
FIFA members are eligible to enter the FIFA World Cup and matches between them are recognized as official international matches. Based on their match results over the previous four-year period, the FIFA World Rankings, published monthly by FIFA, compare the relative strengths of the national teams. National teams who are members (full or associate) of their confederation, but do not have membership of FIFA, are able to compete in confederation championships, but their matches are not full internationals.
The six confederations are:
- Asia – Asian Football Confederation (AFC)
- Africa – Confédération Africaine de Football (CAF)
- Additionally 22 nations in Africa and Asia belong to the Union of Arab Football Associations (UAFA) in addition to their respective regional confederations.
- North and Central America and the Caribbean – Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF)
- South America – Confederación Sudamericana de Fútbol (CONMEBOL)
- Oceania – Oceania Football Confederation (OFC)
- Europe – Union of European Football Associations (UEFA)
FIFA runs the World Cup as a tournament for national teams to find the world champion. Each confederation also runs its own championship to find the best team from among its members:
- AFC* – Asian Cup
- CAF** – Africa Cup of Nations
- CONCACAF – CONCACAF Gold Cup
- CONMEBOL – Copa América
- OFC – OFC Nations Cup
- UEFA – European Championship
UAFA runs a semi-regular tournament for its members, the Arab Nations Cup
*The AFC operates a second international tournament, the AFC Challenge Cup. This is for those national teams that are classed as emerging nations by the AFC. Winners of the Challenge Cup receive an automatic spot at the next Asian Cup
**The CAF operates a second international tournament, The African Nations Championship (sometimes referred to as African Championship of Nations or CHAN) which is played between the best national teams of Africa, exclusively featuring players who are active in the national championships and qualified to play in the ongoing season. Expatriate players, regardless of where they play, even in Africa, may not qualify to take part in the African Championship of Nations.[2][3]
The current holders of the World Cup are marked by a ♠. The current holders of each confederation's championship are marked by a ♣.
AFC (Asia)[edit]
Due to the geographical size of Asia, the AFC is subdivided into four sub-federations:
- West Asian Football Federation (WAFF) – represents nations at the western extremity of the continent.
- East Asian Football Federation (EAFF) – represents nations in Northeast Asia, plus Guam and Northern Mariana Islands.
- Central and South Asian Football Federation (CSAFF)– represents nations in Central Asia and South Asia.
- ASEAN Football Federation (AFF) – represents nations in Southeast Asia, plus Australia

7: Associate member of AFC but not FIFA member
8: Formerly member of OFC (2005-2009)

CAF (Africa)[edit]
Due to the geographical size of Africa, CAF is divided into five regional federations:
- Council for East and Central Africa Football Associations (CECAFA) – represents nations generally regarded as forming the regions of East Africa and some nations of Central Africa.
- Council of Southern Africa Football Associations (COSAFA) – represents nations generally regarded as forming Southern Africa, as well as island states off the coast of Southern Africa.
- West African Football Union/Union du Football de l'Ouest Afrique (WAFU/UFOA) – represents nations in West Africa.
- Union of North African Federations (UNAF) – represents nations regarded as forming North Africa.
- Union des Fédérations du Football de l'Afrique Centrale (UNIFFAC) – represents some of the nations that form Central Africa.

2: Official names used by FIFA and CAF for the Republic of the Congo (a) and Democratic Republic of Congo (b)

- Caribbean Football Union (CFU) – represents all nations in the Caribbean
- North American Football Union (NAFU) – represents the teams of Canada, Mexico and the USA.
- Union Centroamericana de Fútbol (UNCAF) – represents the seven nations of Central America

National teams not affiliated to FIFA confederations[edit]
These national football teams are affiliated to neither FIFA, nor a continental confederation. The teams are not eligible to enter the FIFA World Cup or their continental confederation championships. Teams who are affiliated with FIFA may not compete against these sides without FIFA's prior permission.[5]
This section lists:
- 5 teams representing sovereign states with full international recognition.
- 3 teams representing states with limited international recognition.
It also discusses the status of football in other fully or limited recognized sovereign states which have never had active national football teams.
Unaffiliated sovereign states[edit]
The football teams that represent the following sovereign states are not members of FIFA or their local confederation:
1: Member of the FIFA Small Nations Working Group[6]
2: The football federation of Monaco was one of the founder members of the NF-Board in 2001, but resigned from the organization in 2010[7]
3: There has never been a "United Kingdom national football team" participating in recognized internationals, although three friendly matches have been played under this name. A team representing the entire United Kingdom has only ever competed in the Olympic Games (most recently in the 2012 Games) under the name "Great Britain"; otherwise, the UK is represented by separate teams for each of its constituent countries
4: The Palau team has been inactive since 1998. It joined as an associate member of OFC in 2002, but this membership expired. In 2013 the Palau Football Association confirmed an intention to apply for membership of the East Asian Football Federation.[8]
The Marshall Islands are the only sovereign nation state which has no recorded national association football team.
Unaffiliated states with limited international recognition[edit]
Two states with limited international recognition are full members of FIFA and are listed above: Palestine and the Republic of China, the latter under the name "Chinese Taipei" due to the objections of the government of the People's Republic of China. Three further states with limited international recognition have active teams which are not currently affiliated with FIFA or their local confederation:
- Kosovo
- Northern Cyprus
- Western Sahara (Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic)
Both Kosovo and Northern Cyprus were members of FIFA's recent unaffiliated nations working group,[6] though the activities of this are currently suspended.[9] The Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic team had played just one game between 1988 and 2011, but was reformed in 2012, [10] leading to them competing at the 2012 VIVA World Cup. [11] Although matches against these teams are unofficial, FIFA confirmed in May 2012 that members would be permitted to play friendlies against Kosovo without sanction.[12]
The three states with limited international recognition in the Caucasus - Abkhazia, Nagorno-Karabakh and South Ossetia - have competed in matches against each other. The first of these came between Abkhazia and Nagorno-Karabakh in September 2012, [13] while South Ossetia played Abkahzia in October 2013. [14] These sides remain unrecognized by FIFA.[15]
The state of Transnistria, which only has recognition from other states with limited international recognition, has no national football team. The Moldova national team still regularly plays in Transnistria and the side contains a large number of Transnistrian players.[16]
FIFA's entry criteria state that:
Any association which is responsible for organising and supervising football in its country may become a member of FIFA. In this context, the expression 'country' shall refer to an independent state recognised by the international community.
—FIFA, Fifa Statutes May 2008
The main condition for joining FIFA is thus general international recognition as a nation state and membership of the UN.[17] However, this rule is not applied retroactively,[18] and 23 of FIFA's members are not internationally recognised sovereign nations.[19]
Non-sovereign associations may still join FIFA in specific circumstances. In particular, an exception is made for associations representing a dependency, which may apply for membership if authorised by the association in its parent state.[9][18] Most recently, this was allowed for New Caledonia in 2004; this was on the grounds of the distance of New Caledonia from its 'parent' nation, France.[20] By contrast, both Zanzibar and Gibraltar – who would compete in the same confederation as their parent state – have had their application to join FIFA rejected. [20] While Gibraltar's FIFA bid was rejected, a 2011 ruling issued by the Court of Arbitration for Sport stated that UEFA "must do everything in its power to allow Gibraltar entry into the organisation by June 2012".[9] Gibraltar was voted in as a member of UEFA in May 2013, [21] although it is unknown if they now intend to apply to join FIFA.
A variety of other national, separatist, sub-national and pseudo-national teams compete in football matches outside of FIFA's jurisdiction.[20] In 2001, the N.F.-Board (Nouvelle Fédération-Board), was founded to promote international football among sovereign nations, unrecognised nations, regions and stateless peoples that are not members of FIFA, and to assist in their possible future membership of FIFA. A total of 37 nations were listed on the N.F. Board's website as of August 2013, [22] although at least one of these (Monaco) is no longer a member. [23] The nature of these other teams is heterogeneous: whilst some such as Catalonia, Galicia or Tibet play semi-regularly, often against FIFA member nations, others are much less active. For a full list of teams that have been documented, see the list of non-national representative teams in men's football.
Former national football teams[edit]
These national teams no longer exist due to the dissolution of the nation or territory that they represented.

Three things I want in a relationship: Eyes that won\'t cry, lips that won\'t lie, and love that won\'t die.
Wiz Khalifa
To sum up: your father, whom you love, dies, you are his heir, you come back to find that hardly was the corpse cold before his younger brother popped on to histhrone and into his sheets, thereby offending both legal and natural practice. Now why exactlyare you behaving in this extraordinary manner.
SirTom Stoppard
Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting.
Mother Theresa
Death, the only immortal who treats us all alike, whose pity and whose peace and whose refuge are for all the soiled and the pure, the rich and the poor, the loved and the unloved.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens
People with no morals often considered themselves more free, but mostly they lacked the ability to feel hate or love.
Charles Bukowski
If you wish women to love you, be original; I know a man who used to wear felt boots summer and winter, and women fell in love with him.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
Man invents war. Man discovers peace. He invents war from without. He discovers peace from within. War man throws. Peace man sows. The smile of war is the flood of human blood. The smile of peace is the love, below, above.
Sri Chinmoy
Man is by nature a lover. Only he has yet to discover the real thing to love. This quest awakens him to the fulfillment of his real Self.
Sri Chinmoy
He (Martin Luther King) was very pure in mind and heart. He was a lover: a lover not only of his race but a lover of all mankind. His heart was so broad, so great, so magnanimous, and this gave him a most sincere feeling of absolute oneness with everyone. This is what made him so divinely great.
Sri Chinmoy
Love, like medicine, is only the art of encouraging nature.
Pierre Ambroise Franois Choderlos de Laclos
The shame love causes is like its pain; we only feel it once. We may feign it afterwards, but we do not feel it. However, the pleasure remains, and that is indeed something.
Pierre Ambroise Franois Choderlos de Laclos
The spiritual meaning of love is measured by what it can do. Love is meant to heal. Love is meant to renew. Love is meant to bring us closer to God.
Deepak Chopra
The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists, as the mother can love the unborn child.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
By poeticizing love, we imagine in those we love virtues that they often do not possess; this then becomes the source of constant mistakes and constant distress.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
Life is meaningless only if we allow it to be. Each of us has the power to give life meaning, to make our time and our bodies and our words into instruments of love and hope.

Rockford College Art Gallery will host Michiko Itatani's Cosmic Wanderlust, a series of oil paintings, from September 14 through October 16, 2012. The artist will host a lecture from 5-6 p.m. and an opening reception from 6-7:30 p.m. Friday, September 14, 2012. Itatani presents this about her recent body of work:
"In my youth, I wanted to pursue writing fiction. I strongly believe in fiction's ability to express the deepest truths and concerns.
In my most recent body of work, "Cosmic Wanderlust", I am presenting my personal parallels in two series of work. One is HyperBaroque and the other is Moon Light / Mooring. These are my two parallel fictions based on the human desire to reach out into the mental and physical space beyond our grasp. One is looking out and the other is looking in. Through this process, I am trying to come to terms with the complex reality of the 21st Century. And my vision stays pathetically optimistic."

Born in Oviedo in 1961, Patricia Urquiola studied Architecture at the Madrid Polytechnic and at the Milan Polytechnic University where she graduated in 1989 with Achille Castiglioni as her supervisor for whom she acted as an assistant at the Milan Polytechnic from 1990 to 1992. From 1990 to 1996 she also acted as a cooperative with Vico Magistretti at the Product Development Office for De Padova. In 1996 she became a partner and designer at Studio Lissoni and Associates. However, in 2001 she opened her own studio where she looks after numerous designs, installations and architectural commissions. Her design work has also generated mass appeal in the creation of consumer products for Alessi, with her sleek modern lines and geometric inspirations. The Orloff bowl design is a perfect example of such characteristics. Created with the inspiration of an inverse geodetic dome, this bowl has been formed from a single sheet of stainless steel. It has been called a masterpiece and will continue to prevail as a contemporary work of art for the home table for years to come.
Frilly, Particia Urquiola's new transparent polycarbonate chair for Kartell, was born of the idea of industrial sculpture transformed into a charming ergonomic shape. The Frilly Chair's undulating effect gives this piece a light, soft look, like pleated fabric, for a sensual, fun and feminine optical effect. Reminiscent of natural elements, giving the chair a further light and lovely touch.Item: | Dimensions: | Weight: |

In recent years, getting agitated about political correctness on college campuses has been the near exclusive sport of beleaguered conservative professors, rambunctious college Republicans, and David Horowitz. It wasn't always so. In the 1990s, egregious examples of P.C. could grab a headline or two in the mainstream media. Gripping book-length exposés were written, like Dinesh D'Souza's Illiberal Education, and many an impressive journalistic career was launched. But today, complaining about P.C. on campus is like complaining about your taxes in April. Perhaps our attention has been turned, necessarily, to more pressing matters such as terrorism and war. It may be difficult in this environment for a book about campus P.C. to get attention. Yet despite its melodramatic subtitle, Unprotected: A Campus Psychiatrist Reveals How Political Correctness in Her Profession Endangers Every Student, by Anonymous, M.D., deserves an audience.
A great deal of the P.C. decried in the 1990s was of the "emperor has no clothes" variety. Parents might make a mental note of the problem before sending Johnny off to a prestigious university, but they never really believed in its power to hurt him. Certainly now, in the wake of 9/11, there is a heightened awareness of the real dragons that need slaying out in the wide world. Why bother with these petty lords and their meaningless little fiefdoms in the English department? As long as Johnny doesn't major in English everything will be O.K., right?
There is a manly aspect to this kind of dismissive confidence that makes it appealing. It becomes downright seductive when you consider that there is just enough truth in the attitude to make it appear sound. But the problem with seduction is that it conceals unattractive realities. The emphasis in the '90s on the obnoxious and outlandish variety of P.C. at the universities was dangerously misleading. It made for great books, sold lots of magazines, supplied many a punch line for late-night talk show hosts, and drew large crowds at conservative conferences and speeches—but it did not get to the heart of the problem. P.C. is not at its most insidious when it is most vocal, but when it is silent and creeping. As Anonymous, M.D., demonstrates, it is the things that are not said in the name of "sensitivity" that do the most damage to truth and, tragically, to student's lives.
Anonymous, M.D., weaves a compelling narrative of heartbreak and occasional horror as she describes the difficulties of her student patients. They are not selected for their unusual situations, but are very much like the students that everyone reading this review knows. But ordinary students, whose run-of-the-mill social problems might in past eras have been nipped in the bud, now find themselves on the verge of collapse. Indeed, college campuses, like the rest of America, have seen a dramatic increase in the number people being treated for psychological issues, and in the severity of those issues. According to the author, a 2005 survey of campus counseling centers found that counseling hours had nearly doubled and that 91% of the centers reported having to hospitalize a student for psychological reasons. Even worse, of that 91%, 36% reported one or more suicides.
Anonymous is unsatisfied with the usual explanations for these increases, such as pressure for good grades and financial difficulties, for these are nothing new. "I contend that radical social ideologies are also to blame," she writes, "especially when they've spread from the classroom to the counseling center." She argues that the atmosphere of P.C. has muzzled her profession when it comes to offering wisdom to young people. This is best demonstrated when it comes to matters of the heart, a subject on which young people most desperately need the voice of wisdom and experience. But of course this kind of talk is terribly judgmental and narrow; therapists and counselors are strongly cautioned against using it.
According to Anonymous, these prohibitions make it nearly impossible for her to do her job. Moreover, they seem to apply exclusively to physicians in the mental health field. A cardiologist, she argues, feels perfectly justified in offering judgments about a patient's sedentary lifestyle. The truth may hurt, but no one worries that a fat man with hypertension will be offended by being told he should lose weight and exercise. But if a mental health physician has the gall to suggest to a young female patient displaying serious symptoms of depression that she might improve the quality of her life if she changes her casual attitude toward sex—well, that crosses the line. That's a value judgment and not medicine, she is likely to be told. Anonymous begs to differ. "I argue as a scientist," she says, "with biological facts, not biblical ones. Forget Leviticus—as you'll see, my data is from The New England Journal of Medicine and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."
In one example, Anonymous cites a mountain of evidence from surveys and studies in neurology and biology to argue that females are far more vulnerable than males in romantic attachments. The relevant science is widely available to those in the profession, but as far as her patients are concerned, it may as well be koine Greek: it's absent from the literature handed out in campus health centers. Consider oxytocin. Most women who have had a child know that oxytocin is a chemical involved in stimulating childbirth and let-down for nursing. Those who have read into the plethora of baby guides may know that oxytocin's release has been found to be related to maternal attachment. Oxytocin is also the chemical that stimulates milk production; nursing and formerly nursing mothers might even recall that the mere sound of a crying infant or sight of their baby's picture caused leaks. This demonstrates that over time, the release of oxytocin can be "classically conditioned." In other words, one doesn't need the actual event of holding or nursing to send oxytocin surging through one's body; it is enough to suggest it. But what many don't realize—least of all, college-age women and men—is that oxytocin is also released in women during sexual activity. This means that over time it may no longer take actual sexual activity to release this bonding chemical. The mere sight of the man with whom a woman had or is continuing to have sex can send oxytocin racing through her system.
Research also shows that oxytocin increases trust—a fact that many young men have sensed but seldom understood. It is easy to see how, for women, last Saturday's "hook-up" can become an obsession in a matter of weeks. This reaction confuses many young women. They are ashamed of themselves for feeling attached to a man (especially one they know doesn't deserve their attachment), because they have been socially conditioned to believe it makes them weak. Of course, in a way, it does. But it does not mean that they are crazy or that they need to toughen up their sexual psyche to resemble a man's. Certainly there is nothing wrong with them that requires the prescription of Zoloft. It only means that they are females and that their biology—if nothing else—suggests that they would be smart to protect themselves by being very careful about when and with whom they choose to have sex.
The problem is that college campus health and counseling centers assiduously avoid giving out that kind of information. Students are counseled to eat right, exercise, make time for themselves, and to use condoms. As one of Anonymous's patients said to her, "Why, Doctor, why do they tell you how to protect your body—from herpes and pregnancy—but they don't tell you how to protect your heart." Of course, to do this would run counter to the notion taught in most academic departments that women are just like men. And that...well, that just wouldn't be politically correct.

Role of the DNase-I-Binding Loop in Dynamic Properties of Actin Filament Biophysical Journal, Volume 82, Issue 1, 1 January 2002, Pages 321-334 Sofia Yu. Khaitlina and Hanna Strzelecka-Gołaszewska Abstract Effects of proteolytic modifications of the DNase-I-binding loop (residues 39–51) in subdomain 2 of actin on F-actin dynamics were investigated by measuring the rates of the polymer subunit exchange with the monomer pool at steady state and of ATP hydrolysis associated with it, and by determination of relative rate constants for monomer addition to and dissociation from the polymer ends. Cleavage of actin between Gly-42 and Val-43 by protease ECP32 resulted in enhancement of the turnover rate of polymer subunits by an order of magnitude or more, in contrast to less than a threefold increase produced by subtilisin cleavage between Met-47 and Gly-48. Probing the structure of the modified actins by limited digestion with trypsin revealed a correlation between the increased F-actin dynamics and a change in the conformation of subdomain 2, indicating a more open state of the filament subunits relative to intact F-actin. The cleavage with trypsin and steady-state ATPase were cooperatively inhibited by phalloidin, with half-maximal effects at phalloidin to actin molar ratio of 1:8 and full inhibition at a 1:1 ratio. The results support F-actin models in which only the N-terminal segment of loop 39–51 is involved in monomer-monomer contacts, and suggest a possibility of regulation of actin dynamics in the cell through allosteric effects on this segment of the actin polypeptide chain.

Actin Polymerization Overshoots and ATP Hydrolysis as Assayed by Pyrene Fluorescence Biophysical Journal, Volume 95, Issue 3, 1 August 2008, Pages 1050-1062 F.J. Brooks and A.E. Carlsson Abstract We investigate via stochastic simulation the overshoots observed in the fluorescence intensity of pyrene-labeled actin during rapid polymerization. We show that previous assumptions about pyrene intensity that ignore the intensity differences between subunits in different ATP hydrolysis states are not consistent with experimental data. This strong sensitivity of intensity to hydrolysis state implies that a measured pyrene intensity curve does not immediately reveal the true polymerization kinetics. We show that there is an optimal range of hydrolysis and phosphate release rate combinations simultaneously consistent with measured polymerization data from previously published severing and Arp2/3 complex-induced branching experiments. Within this range, we find that the pyrene intensity curves are described very accurately by the following average relative intensity coefficients: 0.37 for F-ATP actin; 0.55 for F-ADP + Pi actin; and 0.75 for F-ADP actin. Finally, we present an analytic formula, which properly accounts for the sensitivity of the pyrene assay to hydrolysis state, for estimation of the concentration of free barbed ends from pyrene intensity curves.

Cofilin and DNase I Affect the Conformation of the Small Domain of Actin Biophysical Journal, Volume 82, Issue 6, 1 June 2002, Pages 3134-3143 Irina V. Dedova, Vadim N. Dedov, Neil J. Nosworthy, Brett D. Hambly and Cris G. dos Remedios Abstract Cofilin binding induces an allosteric conformational change in subdomain 2 of actin, reducing the distance between probes attached to Gln-41 (subdomain 2) and Cys-374 (subdomain 1) from 34.4 to 31.4 Å (pH 6.8) as demonstrated by fluorescence energy transfer spectroscopy. This effect was slightly less pronounced at pH 8.0. In contrast, binding of DNase I increased this distance (35.5 Å), a change that was not pH-sensitive. Although DNase I-induced changes in the distance along the small domain of actin were modest, a significantly larger change (38.2 Å) was observed when the ternary complex of cofilin-actin-DNase I was formed. Saturation binding of cofilin prevents pyrene fluorescence enhancement normally associated with actin polymerization. Changes in the emission and excitation spectra of pyrene-F actin in the presence of cofilin indicate that subdomain 1 (near Cys-374) assumes a G-like conformation. Thus, the enhancement of pyrene fluorescence does not correspond to the extent of actin polymerization in the presence of cofilin. The structural changes in G and F actin induced by these actin-binding proteins may be important for understanding the mechanism regulating the G-actin pool in cells.

Proteolytic cleavage of actin between Gly42 and Val43 within its DNase-I-binding loop (D-loop) abolishes the ability of Ca-G-actin to spontaneously polymerize in the presence of KCl. Here we show that such modified actin is assembled into filaments, albeit at a lower rate than unmodified actin, by myosin subfragment 1 (S1) carrying the A1 essential light chain but not by S1(A2). S1 titration of pyrene-G-actin showed a diminished affinity of cleaved actin for S1, but this could be compensated for by using S1 in excess. The most significant effect of the cleavage, revealed by measuring the fluorescence of pyrene-actin and light-scattering intensities as a function of actin concentration at saturating concentrations of S1, is strong inhibition of association of G-actin-S1 complexes into oligomers. Measurements of the fluorescence of dansyl cadaverine attached to Gln41 indicate substantial inhibition of the initial association of G-actin-S1 into longitudinal dimers. The data provide experimental evidence for the critical role of D-loop conformation in both longitudinal and lateral, cross-strand actin-actin contact formation in the nucleation reaction. Electron microscopic analysis of the changes in filament-length distribution during polymerization of actin by S1(A1) and S1(A2) suggests that the mechanism of S1-induced polymerization is not substantially different from the nucleation-elongation scheme of spontaneous actin polymerization.

This page describes how to create a recipe for a pre-existing Java project or library that is not currently available in OpenEmbedded or Jalimo. It assumes a basic working knowledge of OpenEmbedded and Java tools such as javac. An example library will be built from sources: Concierge, an OSGi framework.
Before proceeding with this howto, you'll need to verify that your OpenEmbedded build environment is working properly. This falls into two categories, the core BitBake system and the OpenEmbedded recipes, and the Java tools that are built inside of OpenEmbedded.

So basically I've liked trick room ever since my first battle on the gts when i got smoked by a Tr team that didn't seem very good at all. Since then Ive Made a few trick room teams, but this team has proven itself to be very good for me. Team building process: I started with dusclops as it is in my opinion the bulkiest trick room user in the game when holding eviolite, it can in most cases take two super effective hits and survive. The next to be added was conkeldurr, my favourite trick room attacker, and the heart of this team. Although lacking fake out, with massive attack, and good bulk he can stick around for a long time. With good defensive coverage against conkeldurrs two weaknesses as well as a very high attack stat of its own, metagross plays a similar role as conkeldurr, hard hitting pokemon, with a priority move, and some ability to last. At this point my team is missing both a special attacker, and a resistance to fire types. Although not my first thought heatran has an an immunity to fire, great special attack and a good spread move. With an obvious weakness to earthquake, it was obvious i needed something imune to it. I also needed something to be able to get rid ground types in general. Gyarados seemed to be the perfect answer with the ability to get rid of many of the counters to my team, as well as giving intimidate support. Finally, the last spot on my team is currently inhabited by cresselia. Cresselia gives me a second tr user, as well as many options for support moves. In place of cresselia i also tried porygon z, porygon2, chandelure, dragonite, jellicent, scrafty (who was pretty helpful), mamoswine (also very helpful), breloom, amoongus (really good but spore spamming got boring), and dragonite. The Team Dusclops @eviolite Nature: sassy Ability: pressure EVs: 252Hp/176Def/80SpDef 0 Spd ivs -trick room -will-o-wisp -pain split -night shade My primary trick room user. His main purpose is to set up tick room. After that he helps the team by will-o-wisping the other team, eating away at the health of the other team with night shade. Pain split lets dusclops last much longer while aslo dealing damage to the other team. Conkeldurr @leftovers Naturre: Brave Ability: guts Evs: Hp252/Atk252/SpDef4 0 Spd ivs -drain punch -ice punch -mach punch -protect Like i said the heart of this team, i also often refer to him as the dragon slayer, because of his ability to one hit all dragons not running a defensive set (minus kingdra). With leftovers and drain punch he lasts ridiculously long. I prefer hp evs over an individual defensive stat as it will help defensively in all situations rather then from only physical or special. Mach punch is also helpful as it still deals a lot of damage to most pokes and has priority. I often lead with dusclops and conkeldurr and around one third of my battles with this team have been won with just conkeldurr and dusclops. Gyarados @Life orb Nature: brave Ability: intimidate Evs: Hp252/Atk152/SpDef100 0 Spd Ivs -Waterfall -stone edge -taunt -protect waterfall is the stab move of choice, and along with stone edge gyarados gets good coverage. Gyarados is an especially good counter to chandelure who stops my conkeldurr very well. Taunt can be helpful in many situations, such as getting rid of spore leads who can destroy the team by sleeping the trick room lead. Brelloom is still a problem as it will out speed my gyarados when trick room is up. With zero speed ivs and a hindering speed nature, gyarados is slow enough to be effective in trick room (this is also true for the rest of my pokemon on this team). Heatran @air balloon Nature: Quiet Ability: flash fire Evs: Hp252/SpAtk252/Def4 0 Spd Ivs -Protect -Heat wave -Earth power -Hidden power grass Heatran has a very good special attack and is a good counter to apposing steel types, and fire types. Air ballon gives it an extra turn (generaly) to be safe from ground attacks. Dragons dont give my team much trouble, so i prefer hp grass over ice, as it can help get rid gastrodon and other water types if heatran gets a chance to attack them. Metagross @lum berry Nature: brave Ability: clear body Evs: Hp252/Atk252/Def4 0 Spd ivs -Zen Headbutt -Bullet Punch -Protect -Earthquake A very good pokemon overall. Lum berry is needed to rid it of burn or sleep, which would both otherwise stop metagross quickly. Zen headbutt is a great stab move helpful for taking out fighting types, and earthquake is a good stab move. i chose priority over power in bullet punch as more often than not the extra power of meteor mash is not needed. Cresselia @sitrus berry Nature: Relaxed Ability: levitate Evs: Hp 252/Def252/SpDef4 0Spd ivs -trick room -light screen -swagger -shadow ball Cresselia is often considered the best tr user but, i much prefer dusclops. The only situations i use cresselia is if the opponent has nothing to hurt it. However this is uncommon as she is such a common poke in vgc. And when i do use her i usually just fool around and swagger my metagross, and set up light screen. The reason i tought her shadow ball rather then a stab move was to be able to beat other cresselia. I am very willing to give her a different set or switch her out because sh is not essential to my team. Threats to the team: no pokemon can individually take out the team but there are some combinations that will hurt the team bad off the start. Weavile+breloom: if the weavile fake outs my conkeldurr or whatever else i lead with and the breloom spores my dusclops turn 1, then the breloom can easily out speed or take any of my priority moves and spore my second pokemon turn 2. The only way i can counter this is with the lum berry on my metagross who will wake up from sleep and be able to 1 hit breloom with zen headbutt. any two pokemon that have a powerful stab dark or ghost move: dusclops cannot take both a crunch from a ttar and a dark pulse from a hydregion. Although this lead is uncommon i have experienced it. Fortunately conkeldurr can 1-hit tyranitar with mach punch or 1-hit most other dark types. other trick room teams: if the other team has slower pokes then mine i will generally try to counter this by using my trick room to keep the dimensions normal. Otherwise try to out power the other team with my strong attacking pokemon. Taunt users: Taunt prevents me from setting up trick room yes, but when i start with my usual dusclops and conkeldurr all of the more common taunt users like tornadus and weavile are 1-hit by either of conkeldurrs attacks. Current record on the gts is 86 wins and 4 losses, with no rage quits by me, and countless rage quits by others which would have otherwise lead to a win for me. I know that there are a lot of bad people on the gts, but it has still done well. I dont have pokemon online so i havent tried it there yet.
good TR team, only 2 comments based on what i've used with some luck under TR. 1st is using Marowak or Ryhperior as a partner for Gyarados as their lightning rod ability makes Gyara an absolute monster. i'v been using Gyara in TR for years and u'll get a load more rage quits when people can't OHKO or Para him like they thought they were about to! 2nd is if conkeldurr works for you then keep him but i went for Machamp as no guard dynamic punch can help u set up TR again when the opp pkmn are confused/switching out to lose confusion (i also gave him elemental punches for the great coverage) ..and breloom used to well p**s me of as well! good luck with the team
On Dusclops, Cresselia and Gyarados, do the EVs help survive against anything? If not, consider optimizing their EV Spreads with http://honko.byethost8.com/manly_calc.html On Metagross move the 4 EVs into Defense to be 3HKOed by other Metagross' EQs. p.s.: nice Heatran pic xD
so i changed the metagross and cresselia, with the current spread on gyarados, it is able to sponge the special attacks fairly well that really hurt metagross, and conkeldurr. and the 152 atk allows for some needed 2hko ill try out marowak, i used rhyperior for a bit, but found that it was far too week to special attacks, increasing the special weekness of the team. the gyarados isn't really used as one of my primary pokemon, he is a supporter. its main purposes are intimidate support and a bit of coverage on the offensive and defensive side. it also has an earthquake immunity which is quite helpful. Because he only is brought out in specific situations (such as against a sand team), he isnt subjected to many electric attacks, so it would be almost pointless to add an extra pokemon to support a support pokemon.
Looks like a decent team, although you may want to consider... Amoonguss. Rage Powder is amazing in TR teams, and may as well be a staple. It would allow Dusclops to easily set up without it getting interrupted by something like Taunt, which you really have no power against. Yes, Spore is annoying, but only if you aren't using it! After Trick Room, Amoonguss will be able to outspeed almost everything in VGC '13. And so, the spamming of Spore begins! Trust me, sleep is extremely useful in these quick VGC battles and can usually be a game-winner. The mushroom of doom (that rhymed, haha! eh.. yeah whatever) also somewhat covers your "special defensively weak" side of your team, as I think you've said you had. Gyarados especially loves Amoonguss because of its ability to wall Electric-type moves. The moveset and EV's are up to you, I suppose. Whatever floats your boat. Hope I helped-- good luck in the VGC this year!
btw im no maths genius and u may want to double check but due to the whole level 50 ev's being halved so odd numbers can waste ev points thing 76 Spd ev's will still give him a total of 176 and you can move his Def stat up one to 173 with 182 ev's ...on Dusclops
Alright, here are a few general tips and recommendations fro me. It's good to create a trick room team that doesn't necessarily always rely on trick room. Relying on any form of set up in VGC is a formula for disaster as you'll occasionally have to work without it. For this reason, I suggest you change your natures to the standard non -Speed natures on all of your Pokemon but Cresselia. IE, Adamant on Metagross, Modest on Heatran, etc. A big change I have in mind with Gyarados will hopefully clear that up a little. So, on to the specific recommendations. Thunder Wave > Stone Edge and Wacan Berry > Life Orb on Gyarados Thunder Wave allows your team to take an alternate route in making sure you're faster than everyone else. With your team's middling speed, you can set up Trick Room or Thunder Wave opponents based on Perism Berry or Flame Orb over Leftovers on Conkeldurr Conkeldurr loves the Guts boost and isn't bulky enough to use leftovers very effectively Other Pokemon really appreciate them. a Perism Berry allows Conkeldurr to be an alternate recipient of Cresselia's Swaggers while still being susceptible to other status inflictions to power your Guts boost. Heck, you can even Thunder Wave your own Conkeldurr if you're feeling lucky with the paralysis chance. Flame Orb will give you a consistent boost but subtracts from your HP substantially. Leftovers > Air Balloon and Substitute > HP Grass on Heatran Air Balloon is a very unreliable item in a rule set filled with spread moves and Fake Out. Not being able to Earthquake with Metagross is a bit of a draw back, but Heatran can target many of the same things Metagross is after with Earthquake with Heat Wave anyway. I would suggest dropping it in favor of Leftovers and scrapping Hidden Power Grass for Substitute. You won't be able to hit Gastrodon as efficiently, but you have several other Pokemon smashing it with strong neutral hits. Substitute on the the other hand allows you to capitalize on situations where your opponent isn't able to hit Heatran for strong neutral or super effective damage (which pop up pretty frequently with Heatran's stellar typing). Meteor Mash > Bullet Punch on Metagross Under Cresselia's Trick Room or after Gyarados has paralyzed everything, you're moving first most of the time. Meteor Mash allows you to put a heavy dent in anything, especially when Swagger boosted. Also, adding onto my earlier recommendation about retooling your natures to work in and out of Trick Room, Change Metagross's nature and IVs to Adamant and 14 Speed. If you do this, Metagross will be just one point faster than Cresselia, allowing you to attack right after you've been swaggered in Trick Room. Psychic / Psyshock >>>>> Shadow Ball Shadow Ball shouldn't be your first answer to enemy Cresselia, Swagger and your partner Pokemon should. Psychic is a huge help versus Hitmontop and gives you a fine STAB move Hydreigon > Dusclops Dusclops + Cresselia is very iffy. You're dedicating two Pokemon to almost raw support which makes your team less interchangeable. I would suggest picking one or the other to use. Personally, I'd go with Cresselia as Dusclops is complete taunt bait. Additionally, you don't have anything here that can hit Cresselia for super effective damage (although Heatran can wall it behind a substitute). I think that Hydreigon would be a pretty decent replacement. It offers you something that can hit everything including Cresselia very hard, another useful water resistance, another Pokemon immune to Earthquake, loves Paralysis support, and pairs well with nearly every single other member of the team, sharing few weaknesses between them all. I would recommend a set along the lines of: Hydreigon @ Life Orb Levitate Modest 252 HP / 252 SpAtk / 6 SpDef -Draco Meteor -Dark Pulse -Earth Power / Flamethrower -Protect You're free to get more complicated with the EVs if you want to KO specific threats or live certain hits, this is just a general filler EV spread. The move set is fairly self explanatory; you have a wide coverage array and the power to hit virtually anything for strong damage. Hope my advice helped!
so first of all id like to say thanks to mantyke for the in depth comment, as well as everyone else who commented, ive made many the changes suggested, and seem to be working just as well if not better. ill attempt to make the changes in the original post in red. Also id like to point out how well hydreigon has done for me so far. i still find dusclops more consistant in being able to set up tr, but now the team doesnt need it as much. The Team Hydreigon @ Life Orb Levitate Modest 252 HP / 252 SpAtk / 6 SpDef -Draco Meteor -Dark Pulse -Flamethrower -Protect Conkeldurr @ flame orb Naturre: adamant Ability: guts Evs: Hp252/Atk252/SpDef4 -drain punch -ice punch -mach punch -protect Gyarados @wacan berry Nature: Adamant Ability: intimidate Evs: 252 HP / 96 Atk / 140 Def / 20 SpD -Waterfall -thunder wave -taunt -protect Heatran @leftovers Nature: modest Ability: flash fire Evs: Hp252/SpAtk252/Def4 -Protect -Heat wave -Earth power -Hidden power grass Metagross @lum berry Nature: adament Ability: clear body Evs: Hp14/Atk252/Def4 0 Spd ivs -Zen Headbutt -meteor mash -Protect -Earthquake Cresselia @sitrus berry Nature: Relaxed Ability: levitate Evs: Hp 252/Def252/SpDef4 0Spd ivs -trick room -light screen -swagger -psychic

What is cervical cancer?
The cervix is the lower part of the uterus (womb). It is sometimes called the uterine cervix. The fetus grows in the body of the uterus (the upper part). The cervix connects the body of the uterus to the vagina (birth canal). The part of the cervix closest to the body of the uterus is called the endocervix. The part next to the vagina is the exocervix (or ectocervix). The 2 main types of cells covering the cervix are squamous cells (on the exocervix) and glandular cells (on the endocervix). These 2 cell types meet at a place called the transformation zone. Most cervical cancers start in the transformation zone
Most cervical cancers begin in the cells lining the cervix. These cells do not suddenly change into cancer. Instead, the normal cells of the cervix first gradually develop pre-cancerous changes that turn into cancer. Doctors use several terms to describe these pre-cancerous changes, including cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL), and dysplasia. These changes can be detected by the Pap test and treated to prevent cancer from developing (see "Can cervical cancer be prevented?").
Cervical cancers and cervical pre-cancers are classified by how they look under a microscope. There are 2 main types of cervical cancers: squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. About 80% to 90% of cervical cancers are squamous cell carcinomas. These cancers develop in the squamous cells that cover the surface of the exocervix. Under the microscope, this type of cancer is made up of cells that are like squamous cells. Squamous cell carcinomas most often begin where the exocervix joins the endocervix.
Most of the other cervical cancers are adenocarcinomas. Cervical adenocarcinomas seem to have become more common in the past 20 to 30 years. Cervical adenocarcinoma develops from the mucus-producing gland cells of the endocervix. Less commonly, cervical cancers have features of both squamous cell carcinomas and adenocarcinomas. These are called adenosquamous carcinomas or mixed carcinomas.
Although cervical cancers start from cells with pre-cancer ous changes (pre-cancers), only I some of the women with pre-cancers of the cervix will develop cancer. The change from cervical pre-cancer to cervical cancer usually takes several years, but it can happen in less than a year. For most women, pre-cancerous cells will go away without any treatment. Still, in some women pre-cancers turn into true (invasive) cancers. Treating all pre-cancers can prevent almost all true cancers. Pre-cancerous changes and specific types of treatment for pre-cancers are discussed in the sections, "How are cervical cancers and pre-cancers diagnosed?" and "Treating pre-cancers and other abnormal Pap test results."
Pre-cancerous changes are separated into different categories based on how the cells of the cervix look under a microscope. These categories are discussed in the section, "How are cervical cancers and pre-cancers diagnosed?"
Although almost all cervical cancers are either squamous cell carcinomas or adenocarcinomas, other types of cancer also can develop in the cervix. These other types, such as melanoma, sarcoma, and lymphoma, occur more commonly in other parts of the body.
This document discusses the more common cervical cancer types, and will not further discuss these rare types.
