So I was having a conversation with one of my friends and we were talking about people coming to my house to visit after baby is here. Well she seems to think EVERYONE can come over and visit. My response to her was "Well i'm not gonna let A LOT of people come visit until i'm feeling better and healed. Plus it's flu season and I would rather not have tons of people passing my baby around." Well then her response was "Good luck with that."
Am I being rude or inconsiderate for not wanting everyone coming to visit for a few days or weeks?
Not even a little bit wrong. It's rude and inconsiderate of people to think they just have an open invitation unless you say so.
We are inviting certain people to drop by our neck of the woods with a phone call at least a few hours ahead to see the baby. We won't be available for random visitors.
I feel the EXACT same way. I have been getting no-so-nice responses about how I will not be attending any Christmas Parties or what not because I don't think it is necessary to take a newborn out so soon. I too, do not want a TON of people over my house for the first few weeks. I have made that very clear to my mother and mother-in-law. My mom agrees with me...my mother-in-law...not so much. She insisted that when she gave birth to my husband she was out at a family wedding when he was 3 weeks. He was also born in the SUMMER. With flu season, I think people need to respect that we do not want our newborns being exposed to so many germs so soon. If people want to be mad at me and say I'm being ridiculous, I don't care. It is for the safety and health of the baby.

As well as many complex websites, we have developed a number of applications to help businesses in streamlining their operations, allowing future cost savings. Some of the more complex application developments we have completed include:
Time recording software development:
A time recording system may be used to monitor staff time and ensure time is logged for specific tasks. A major benefit of a system such as this is for those businesses who are highly regulated and charge on a time basis for work carried out on a clients case. This type of system is ideal for a solicitors firm or Insolvency Practice when recording time spent on a client or IVA case for example. In many instances the time sheet system can work as a plug-in to an existing case management system.

Marketplace Research
One thing differentiating eBay businesses that grow from those that don't is the owners' levels of eBay market knowledge. Marketplace data and software tools from eBay and third parties can help businesses on eBay research their markets to improve results.
eBay's own Marketplace Research is a recent introduction that provides consolidated metrics on up to 90 days of completed items and allows for sophisticated analysis. It is offered in three tiers: Fast Pass for the casual user; Basic for those who want to handle variables such as starting price ranges and number of successful sales; and Pro, which allows for research by related keywords, among other advanced features.
Third-party provider Terapeak, which uses data licensed from eBay, lets sellers and buyers look back through extended time periods to find price trends on specific products through completed listings, along with other sophisticated research tools.
DeepAnalysis market research software from HammerTap can do a number of powerful analyses, such as studying how starting prices compare to bids. You can also use it to figure out the best categories for your items by looking at the number of bids or selling prices for similar items.
Andale's Research tools help eBay sellers find the success rate and average selling price of any item and identify the price most likely to increase sales volume. Services can be purchased a la carte.
Seller Central
If you want to build your business, you should become familiar with Seller Central. It's the mother lode for tips, tools, information and other resources for eBay sellers.
Seller Central is organized into convenient sections. Best Practices presents time-tested approaches for selling on eBay. Its recommendations are based on the techniques used by eBay's most successful sellers. Advanced Selling is for those who are ready to go beyond the basics. Category Tips directs you to specific resources arranged by category to help you fine-tune your approach to fit your category.
The "In Demand" section in Category Tips is especially helpful. It lists the top 10 items in your category and the top 10 buyer search words.
What's Hot gives you a look at the items and categories that are popular and also provides you with a preview of eBay's merchandising calendar so you'll know about upcoming promotions in time to prepare for them. News & Updates gives you a link to sign up for the PowerUp newsletter, a monthly e-mail with the insider's view of new selling features, promotions and tools.
Part of the What's Hot section of Seller Central is the "Hot Categories Report," a monthly listing of categories that meet specific criteria for month-to-month growth in bids and conversion rates. Find out which categories are Super Hot, boasting a 35-percentage-point or more spread between bid growth rate and listing growth, to identify your most promising categories. Get more on the "Hot Categories Report."
The latest addition to this genre of buying analysis is eBay Pop!. Find the latest "Movers & Shakers" as well as the most popular items in several eBay categories. For more details, check out www.ebay.com/ebaypop.
What does that leave? The catchall "Resources" link takes you to a page listing scores of tools and links on topics such as deciding what to sell and eBay's Giving Works charity program.
What Buyers Want
You can find out what buyers are looking for by using several eBay resources for sellers who want to build their businesses on eBay. Reviews & Guides is a tool buyers can use to decide what to buy and a way for sellers to look inside buyers' minds. The "Reviews" section contains eBay user-written comments and ratings for specific products, such as books and CDs. The "Guides" section consists of handbooks written by experts, collectors and other members to give you insight into topics ranging from collectible dolls to caring for antiques. Learn more about Reviews & Guides at http://reviews.ebay.com.
You can browse the Want It Now listings to see exactly what buyers are looking for, in their own words. Buyers can create Want It Now posts to share what they want to purchase with millions of sellers, including you. Learn more about this free service at http://pages.ebay.com/wantitnow.
Picture Manager
eBay's Picture Manager is a fully integrated service to help you post pictures for your listings. With Picture Manager, you save time by tapping into all your pictures from the "Sell Your Item" form or My eBay. You won't have to leave eBay to change, add or remove pictures. You won't have to upload pictures for each individual listing, and you can add multiple pictures to any listing for one flat fee.
You can transfer all the pictures you already have on eBay to Picture Manager with a single click. Once you do so, Picture Manager gives you a single place to host all your pictures for About Me and eBay Stores as well as listings. Security tools allow you to add your User ID to your pictures as a watermark. Picture Manager is priced at several levels, from $9.99 a month for 50MB to $24.99 a month for 1GB.

Hobbit airline safety video prepares your flight to Middle-earth
Most air passengers tend to ignore those in-flight safety videos they play before a flight, so Air New Zealand figured it would freshen up its version by giving it a little Middle-earthen Hobbit flavor.
Released to tie in with the release of the upcoming movie The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, the safety video pokes a little fun at the Hobbit lifestyle, while delivering important safety information. Production was done with the help of the same people at Weta Workshop who worked on the movie, so it's not surprising that everything looks authentic. Even director Peter Jackson makes a cameo appearance.
Whether any of this will help people to absorb the safety message is hard to tell. When I first watched it, I was just taking note of all the references without paying much attention to the information.
Air New Zealand will be running the video through the launch of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey in mid December. But if you can't wait that long, at the end of the video you can enter a contest to win a trip for six to the world premiere in
Middle-earth New Zealand on November 28th.

HOUSTON (AP) -- J.J. Watt swatted away passes, Arian Foster ran away from tacklers and the Houston Texans did just enough to knock Cincinnati out of the playoffs for the second straight year.More »
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- De'Anthony Thomas caught the opening kickoff, raced past Oregon's sideline and leaned his head into the end zone like a sprinter crossing the finish line.
The track meet had started and the fifth-ranked Ducks barely looked back after that.
Triggered by Thomas' 94-yard return, Oregon bolted by No. 7 Kansas State 35-17 Thursday night at the Fiesta Bowl in what may have been coach Chip Kelly's final game with the Ducks.
"I felt like my role in this game was to be a momentum-builder and a game-changer," Thomas said. "Once I saw that edge, I wanted to get to the end zone as fast as I could so I could celebrate with my teammates."
They did it a lot.More »

Let's Go Back to the Future Once Again with Blake Griffin
The Deadpan Dunker is at it again, traveling back in time for two new spots with his faux-DeLorean Kia Optima. In this latest series from David&Goliath, Blake Griffin targets his younger self in 2006 and 2002 to impart wisdom on lifting weights and wearing sunblock. He listens to a little Sean Paul. And he wears the genius red jumpsuit with the griffin logo.
One of the best campaigns on TV continues with more quality spots. Most athletes can't act, but Blake's straight-faced delivery and self-deprecation puts him ahead of every competitor out there. He also listens to Eiffel 65 and used to wear jean shorts, so there's that. And if you need proof of commitment to the brand, he won the 2010 NBA Slam Dunk Contest by dunking over a Kia Optima as a gospel choir serenaded the crowd. Cliff Paul's mustache can't compete with that. Credits and the second ad after the jump.

Fred's, Inc. is a regional chain of discount retail stores, operating in the southeastern (and, to a lesser extent, midwestern) U.S.A.. It opened in 1947 and operates approximately 700 stores and 300 pharmacies in 15 states. It is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, U.S.A.[1]
The first Fred's store opened in Coldwater, Mississippi in 1947.
In 1953, Fred's moved its corporate headquarters to Memphis, Tennessee.
Fred's primarily competes against national, deep-discount chains Dollar General, Family Dollar, and Dollar Tree, and, against independently owned stores. In the past few years, it and other deep-discount retailers have taken some market share away from major discount chains like Walmart, as well. Most locations are in towns with populations of 15,000 or less.
Fred's has attempted to differentiate itself from its rivals by:
- Operating a full-line pharmacy in approximately 1/3 of its stores
- Operating a seasonal lawn and garden department
- Selling tobacco products
As of the second quarter 2007[update] (10-Q), Fred's operated 701 stores (of which 24 are franchised; the company states on its website that it does not intend to add any more franchised stores) in 15 states. Of those, 294 contain a full-line pharmacy.[2]
In 2008, Fred's decided to close over 50 under-performing stores due to rising fuel costs and other economic issues. For example, several North Carolina locations were closed, leaving over a dozen stores in that state.

Angelou recalls horrific 'abominations' of slavery
By Mark Moss
Special to the NNPA from the Carolina Peacemaker
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (NNPA) – Renown poet and author Maya Angelou called upon the audience at Mt. Zion Baptist Church to never forget the sacrifices made by the ancestors of African Americans.
Describing the abject conditions of a slave ship – "lying spoon fashion…in each other's excrement and urine" – Angelou added, "Imagine it. We forget it too frequently. We shouldn't forget who we've come from. We have come a long way. We have been blessed to come a long way with grandfathers and grandmothers who underwent experiences we can't even talk about."
Angelou, who is a member of Mt. Zion, was the featured speaker at the church's dual celebration of Juneteeth and Father's Day. Angelou, who is best known for her autobiography, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, lives in Winston-Salem and teaches at Wake Forest University.
Rev. Serenus Churn, Mt. Zion's pastor, called Angelou our "African-American Queen" during his introduction of her. "She belongs to us and she belongs to the world."
Angelou interspersed her brief speech with poems to emphasize her theme of paying homage to Black ancestors.
Angelou said that the abominations that African Americans endured were too horrific to be included in the Alex Haley's book, "Roots," or in the TV adaptation of the bestseller.
"I am amazed at anyone who is ashamed to be Black," she said. "I think, my Lord, I don't know what I did before, but I did something right to have been sent here as a Black woman, as an African-American woman," she said to applause.
She criticized those young people who sneered at adults who were overly obsequious because they had families to feed and clothe.
Take your ancestors with you, Angelou advised, when you go to a job interview, when you go to take an examination, when you visit strange places.
She concluded with one of her better-known poems, "Still I Rise."
You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise. . .
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise…"

HSM was created on the false premise that the horrors of high school can be erased by wishing (and singing) them away. Beach Blanket movies offer a more accurate picture of teen life. Even as a fairy tale, the genre Disney does best, HSM is pumped full of ridiculous assumptions and offensive imagery. Slutty Sharpay wears hooker boots and envy-green stretch pants with an R-rated camel toe. Gay Ryan isn't just a sissy—he's a mincing, 16-year-old Paul Lynde. And anybody else notice that the only two black male students at East High are a jock and a guy dressed like Urkel?
The kids of East High sing "stick with the status quo" and "we can be anything we want to be" as they fling themselves around fake lockers and phony lunchroom tables in the production numbers. Those conflicting lyrics go right to the heart of what's so wrong with High School Musical. There's a joke early in the show that alludes to a quote by Karl Marx about individuals being sacrificed for the good of the whole. It's a half-assed explanation of the East High basketball team's all-for-one spirit. But a more accurate doctrine to apply to HSM comes from John Stuart Mill, the British philosopher-economist who argued in favor of an intellectual elite where only those in the top echelon of the class system are allowed individual expression.
This is the real story in High School Musical and perhaps of high school itself. Only a small number of those at the top of the heap actually enjoy the experience. Among East High's carefully constructed castes, only the pretty people—Troy and Gabriella—get to have it all and see their wishes and dreams come true. The rest of the proles are there merely to support the success of the elite, including Sharpay, whose most loyal servant is her own beat-down twin brother.
The show tries to pretend, in the most artless ways, that art brings equality to the masses. "We're All in This Together" is the big second act anthem sung by the jocks, freaks, squares and geeks as they join hands to celebrate the ascension of Gabriella and Troy. These two get to be the golden couple. Troy wins the big game. Gabriella leads the math team to triumph. The two play the leads in the school show, a rewritten piece of Shakespeare that lets Romeo and Juliet live happily ever after.
And another generation heads to high school thinking they'll be Troy or Gabriella and it will all be so much fun. They wish.

[Everything] Your Day By Day Guide to PAD - Late Game Edition

[Everything] Your Day By Day Guide to PAD - Late Game Edition
Either you're:
Whatever group you fit into, WELCOME. If you're slightly earlier than this or *way* earlier than this, there are guides for you too.
Table of Contents
1. What to do in the late game
Goals for the late game
You've got 5 big goals for the late-game:
Once you've done all of this, you'll have a foundation that serves several purposes:
"Should I run a collab?" - the late game version
The new (short) answer is: whenever you feel like doing it and have a team composition that makes sense for it.
Additionally: now that you are in late game mode your focus in collabs also shifts slightly from simply getting monsters with skills that plug holes to getting monsters that can effectively "skill up" your monsters. e.g. farming Nagas from Scarlet Snake Princess, feeding them to an Echidna for a chance of lowering the number of turns it takes to bust out Echidna's active skill. This sort of thing really hasn't mattered in the early game and mid-game (hence why I never mentioned it) but as you get into the late and end-game you will find needing only 5 turns to activate a skill vs. 11 is a very big difference. If you are interested in more details around skilling up, there's an excellent guide already written here.
My personal opinion is to not waste time on skillups that are exceptionally time-consuming or hold little value to your team. Echidna and Siren's skillups are incredibly valuable not simply because of their constant presence on late or end-game teams but because they are incredibly *easy* to farm. On the flip side, you're not likely to get much out of Ra being able to bust out his 7777 attack a couple of turns faster *and* you have to evolve every single Bane you farmed in order to do so.
Box size in the late game
Again, this is generally up to you (and also corresponds with how much evo material you save or stockpile) but I generally like to have about 100 spaces of box space free at any time (mostly so that when you are farming, you can race through levels without having to deal with the "your box is full" message). Others like 50 free spaces. Whatever your total box size is, you should have some comfortable "working space".
The evolution of farming evo materials
Those of you who were following the mid-game guide will have noticed that the Wednesday expert level and the Friday expert level have disappeared from the schedule. This is because with the new levels accessible to you, the following materials are *specifically* farmable:
The only evo materials that still require a Wednesday run are the evo and demon masks. The evo masks do not have a dungeon that is ever on a 1.5x drop rate so your chance of getting one is actually *better* in the Wednesday beginner dungeon. The demon masks have dungeons on 1.5x drop rate (Fire Forest Nerva -> Castle of Satan), but you don't want to be wasting your time there when you can be running the T5. The rank exp you'll get from a Normal dungeon T3 is abysmal. It's better to simply run the beginner dungeon for 10 stamina and hopefully get the masks you require there, stockpiling the remainder for later.
Likewise, if you need the low-level spirits, it's more efficient stamina-wise on Fridays to simply run the beginner dungeon to get what you need and stockpile the remainder rather than grind the very first levels on half-stamina days.
"But what if I desperately need [insert advanced mask or spirit material here]?" You shouldn't; you're stockpiling! Obviously if you feel like wasting your stamina on it, it's totally your business but at this point you should have all of the material you need for an evolution on hand.
The "pengdra cycle" and why you shouldn't bother with it
Many users of the game (and I used to be one of them) run something called the pengdra cycle, which is this:
Those of you who read through the mid-game guide (or skipped ahead to this one) have noticed I don't include running the pengdra cycle in these schedules. That is because while the pengdra cycle sounds like a fast way to level your monsters, in reality it is an *incredible* waste of both your box space and your stamina. This is precisely how Gungho would like you to play, because extra box space beyond a certain point costs you stones, and the less stamina you have the more likely you are to use a stone to refill it if there's a level you want to play.
Suzuteo's Guide to Physical Teams (which completely changed the way I play and will change the way you play as well) discusses this in more detail, but essentially you have a choice in the game of what to be farming. You can:
1) Farm monsters
2) Farm monster experience
3) Farm stamina/rank, and thus farm *game time*.
This time/stamina actually allows you to run *more* of #1 and #2 when you want to, because you will rank up far faster than you would otherwise. Thus, this guide (and in fact, the two preceding chapters) are geared towards the most efficient growing of your stamina on a daily basis while still giving you the ability to level up your monsters relatively quickly (see "levelling your monsters the real man (or woman) way", below)
Levelling your monsters the real man (or woman) way
The T5 dungeons on 1.5x drop rates are great. They have a great ratio of +eggs, they regularly drop king metal dragons, and they have some of best rank exp/stamina ratios in the game.
The fodder that drops in these dungeons happens to be ideal for levelling monsters all the way up to about level 60-70. As well, occasionally a King Metal Dragon will also drop which can be used to level your dark monsters once they go beyond the fodder-feeding threshold. This is the method that a famous non-IAP player used to hit rank 466 (!!!) on PAD.
More importantly than the above, however: they are incredibly easy to blow through with a sufficiently levelled everyday farming team. Not only are you wiping these dungeons and gaining a ton of feeding material, but you will not have to spend 5 hours doing it either (which is great for refilling your stamina pool for the following day).
The final levels of Ocean of Heaven and Tower To The Sky have all of the benefits listed above along with one other one: they provide the second and third highest gold/stamina ratio of any normal dungeon in the game next to the highest difficulty Weekend Tricolor Dungeons. Thus they now replace the Tricolor dungeon on the weekend schedule except in certain specific situations.
The key to levelling using this fodder is to ensure your gold pool doesn't deplete significantly from the feeding. The easiest way to do this is to ensure that the experience gained by feeding a monster is roughly equivalent to the gold spent.
To help make it easy for you to keep track of how to level your monsters, here's the simplified distillation:
If the target monster is between level 70 and 90, feed it only one of the following to level it further:
From a T5/OOH fodder priority standpoint, the best monsters to feed to targets are, in order:
Other people have done a *whole* lot of math so that people like you and I don't really have to. If you want to nerd out over statistics like this, please go here to have a look at this incredibly detailed work!
2. The weekly late game schedule
The late game guide assumes two things:
What "running the appropriate T5" means
Monday through Friday in the schedule below have a listing for "run the appropriate T5 level". This is shorthand for
1) finding the T5 Normal dungeon that is on a 1.5x drop rate.
They rotate through 2 a day from Monday to Friday, going Fire->Water->Wood->Light->Dark - e.g. Monday morning has Hyperion Lava Flow at 1.5x, while Oceanus Falls is at 1.5x Monday evening. Note that there is a 1 hour overlap where *both* dungeons for the day are listed at 1.5x, so if you are fortunate enough to have that hour free, you can choose which color dungeon you want to run.
2) choosing the appropriate level of the dungeon for your current party strength. Your choices in descending order, should be:
[As usual, all listings in the weekly schedule are ranked by priority]
3. Levels to look out for
Ifrit in Hyperion Lava Flow's boss level and Neptune in Ocean of Heaven's boss level will require either:
* a defense break monster that reduces defense by a very significant amount
* poison
* a spike team capable of doing enough damage to offset their armor (which is ultimately what you prefer, but may require some levelling to do so)
Otherwise you'll be there all day if they simply don't just kill you before you can kill them.
Every other boss is simply a case of levelling your monsters up and having a good team composition for the dungeon.
4. Late game teams to build
[note: "farming team" and "everyday farming team are copied from the mid-game guide. If you're read this before, skip this section and jump down to the "Hera" and "Heroes" sections as there's nothing new to see.]
"Farming team"
You'll find many definitions of "farming team" in the forums, but for this guide a "farming team" means a team that can capably *blow through* a dungeon in 5-10 minutes total if not less. if your team takes 30-45 min to beat Keeper of Rainbow for the first time (and many of you will, it's like a rite of passage) that is not considered a "farming" build for Keeper of Rainbow, for example. =)
The "everyday" farming team
The "everyday" farming team is defined as a team that can farm:
every normal dungeon up to the end of the T5 normals
every technical dungeon up to the beginning of the conditionals
This team - along with the team that can run Super Metal Dragons, - is one of the two most important teams to build in the game as together they will be the teams that you spend about 70-90% of your time using.
The absolute *best* everyday farming team - in my opinion only - is one with an attack multiplier based on the *type* of monster, no HP conditional, ideally enough HP to survive *one* significant hit (about 9-10K) and a rainbow set of monsters such that every color is covered off significantly. This is for several reasons:
That being said, a 12.25x HP conditional attack team (such as say, a Light or Dark Metatron team, Goemon team, Zeus team) is still a great potential everyday farming team, If you have a team like this ready-made or easily made, then go for it. Some things to be aware of:
* The 12.25x will likely kill anything before you can ever take a hit
* If you do take a hit you should have a good way to heal back up or you're likely toast (possibly an awakened autohealer or two)
* Ideally your team has the ability to bust out all of its skills in the final round to one shot the boss (otherwise you run a huge risk on the boss stage of Clayus Prison or Rhemis Temple, as the bosses there are on a 2 timer and a 1 timer, respectively)
You should be working towards building some sort of everyday farming team (and it might even be the one you currently are running) when you first get an opportunity.
It's possible to race through the game with combo-based gods as well and the attack multipliers they supply (which also gives you a great deal of team flexibility), but they are not quite as braindead simple as the everyday team I have listed above, which is ideal if you have limited time to play and a large stamina pool.
However, depending on your box content, you may not have access to this sort of team at this point (don't worry - you will...the 9x ADKZ and Valkyrie have special event dungeons that show up on a regular basis, and all of the subs needed to make a rainbow team for them can be farmed or drop from the PAL machine). If not, a 2/4/2 mono team can carry you through (albiet slightly slower). You don't actually *need* this team for the midgame, but you will for the late game unless you'd prefer to run the pengdra cycle (and you don't), so it's best to start preparing it now.
King Carnival team
King Carnival is a variant of the Super Dragons Descended dungeon, with a couple of notable differences:
Strategies to get by this level are thus slightly different than the advice given in the mid-game guide for Super Dragons Descended. Resist dragons no longer work as leads here because the dragons are of multiple colors, and the slow ogre build no longer works at all unless you decide to make a rainbow team of max-evoed ogres (and no sane human being will construct that, I assure you). Likewise, a healer+Odin build will likely get you killed if a Super shows up because you will not be able to heal back from the 2 hits fast enough.
Ideally, you are facing this dungeon down with one of two teams:
The focus for a non-spike team is to simply survive round 1 long enough to store your active skills, then whip through them round by round by round. This is similar to how Super Dragons work as well.
"Hera Descended" team
Hera is one of the most significant monsters in the game for a couple of reasons:
I advise getting between 3-4 Heras for potential team use (read: favorited and not used for skill up) regardless of how long the dungeon takes you to run at this point. In fact, the moment Hera drops you'll probably want to use one in subsequent go-rounds simply so that you have a gravity power to make the Hera fight go faster.
This guide does not go into the teams you should build to get Hera as we'll be here all day, but I'll point you to a couple of threads discussing Hera strategies so you can get a feel for the kind of team you should be assembling. It's important to note that you will likely need at least one member of your team to be poison-capable or else Neptune (showing up in round 6) will be a very long grind, and many teams require a member with 50% dark resistance.
I'd also point you to the excellent guide on "Non-REM Descend Strategies". If you happen to have monsters from the REM that are better suited, by all means use them and they'll make it even easier; but this shows you entirely farmable teams for Hera *and* the dungeon below...
"Two Heroes" team
The completion of Two Heroes nets you one of two monsters: Berserk or Highlander. Aside from the very useful active skill of changing hearts into blue or green orbs, the ultimate evolutions of either of these monsters can form the basis of a very powerful everyday farming team (potentially more powerful than the ADKZ template discussed in the mid-game guide). They are listed below:
Get 2 of each so that you have the ability to choose between an unconditional 9x multiplier or a 12.25x depending on the situation (as of this writing, it has been announced that there will be alternate ultimate evolutions for each of these characters that grant a 3.5x ATK multipler if your HP is over 80%.)
A discussion of Physical/Balance teams is out of the scope of this guide, but I'll point you to a couple of references that have gone into *laborious* detail regarding potential teams that you can construct to beat them:
Suzuteo's Physical Team Appreciation Guide
Balanced Team Appreciation
Team Diversification
One thing I'd advise at this juncture is diversifying your teams so that you have more than one type of team for different situations. e.g. resistance team builds for all colors, potential 2/4/2 teams for all colors, etc. It's your choice. You may want to spend your time building up one team with a bunch of +eggs, for example.
Whatever you like.
I haven't written an end game guide because the very late game doesn't really need one; your farming patterns, levelling patterns, etc. don't really change except in minor ways ((it makes more sense to run a Mystic Stone Dragon dungeon in the technicals than it does to run the Keeper Dungeons, and farming Starlight Sanctuary - King of Gods on the weekends is debatably more beneficial than running Sea-god of Heaven). You're pretty much set if you follow this schedule and simply run Descends, special collabs, etc. etc.
But this - like everything in the game - is totally up to you. This just happened to be what worked best for me after a lot of trial and error, and I hope it helps you out as well!! Feel free to take what works for you and throw out what doesn't.
Thanks a ton for your time, indulgence, and patience! I sincerely hope that these guides help you out and hopefully make your game more productive the way mine was when I started following this pattern!

RE: [Everything] Your Day By Day Guide to PAD - Late Game Edition
Good guide! Would have been wayyy more helpful if this was out when I first started playing.. Already beaten all the techs (even the conditionals) and all the normals :/
"The absolute *best* everyday farming team - in my opinion only - is one with an attack multiplier based on the *type* of monster, no HP conditional, and a rainbow set of monsters such that every color is covered off significantly. This is for several reasons:
you can't lose the attack bonus if you lose or gain HP
you are not limited to one color in play, which is great because..."
Just a quick note on these two things. I use L. Meta/D. Meta for farming and honestly it is better than Valk/Chu Chu. Faster, dual types so I don't orb exhaust. Much faster bursting (unless your unconditional team is all level maxed, but why have a team just for farming?) My Meta teams are useful for descends as well

RE: [Everything] Your Day By Day Guide to PAD - Late Game Edition
I think this is closer to mid game rather than late game. Late game would be descend farming status and farming + eggs when there are no descends. Might sound better to change it to Late-Mid game. Just me nitpicking here.

RE: [Everything] Your Day By Day Guide to PAD - Late Game Edition
Thanks for the feedback all. Will take it into account when I edit.
Banishhed: that's a good point. I'll add something to the effect that if you are running a 12.25x team there's an increased likelihood you are never put in a position to have your HP decrease at this stage of the game. I'd still argue for a rainbow team simply for the brainlessness of it but there's definitely multiple approaches to farming, and a bonus if you can take the same team into a descend.
Vorpal: Probably just my term for "super late-game"/"end-game" being unclear. Your "late game" is my "end game". =) I'll definitely make that clearer in these guides and add a note about "late-mid" game.
Once you're farming descends and farming +eggs it's pretty much a different world entirely, with practically all of the regular game content completed and only the descends and new collabs to be running/farming, hence my rationale for the "end game" terminology.

under "Monday" item #7, "If you urgently need a mythlit, run any T1 technical dungeon first level until it drops (but I'd wait for Wednesday)," did you mean Friday??
Great guide, but do people actually run T3 techs for dub-lits? 16 Stamina for 10 Battles just for a chance at a rare appearance seems sketchy when compared to Friday Dungeon where 25 stamina guarantees you an appearance.

Depends. If you're in desperate need and it happens to be a Monday where you don't need fire/water dub it can be worth it. I will say, dub appearances aren't as rare as mask appearances in techs.

Hey Tony,
I did mean Friday I'll correct that.
I definitely run the T3 techs for chances at dublits. Here's the logic I use when doing so:
a) way better rank exp - it's literally almost 40 times as much rank exp/stamina for Goddess in Paradise (392 exp/stamina) as it is for the Friday dungeon (10 exp/stamina)
b) way better gold: Goddess in Paradise is 1533 gold per stamina vs. 16 per stamina
c) the other drops on the Goddess in Paradise level allow me to level the monsters I've got while the other drops in Friday Expert are good for evo material and not much else (after 10 sapphlits I honestly don't need any more in my box )
If I'm desperate I can certainly run the Friday dungeon but in those cases I am reliant on either:
a) a dublit invade
b) a dublit to be the drop on the last level (1/3 chance on a 2x drop event, even less if I'm not running it on that day)
For sure if you get a dublit drop in Expert Friday (or are lucky enough to have an invade *and* a drop on the last level) then it looks somewhat more efficient.
How about the situation though where you've spent 50 stamina and no dublit has dropped at all?
When that happens in Goddess of Paradise on a 1.5x drop, you'll have run it three times, and will have:
* somewhere between 18-24 fodder monsters (potentially including an evolved pengdra)
* 18,816 more rank experience (48*392)
* 73,854 more gold (48*1,533)
When this happens on Wednesday Expert, you'll have run it twice and gotten:
* 6-10 evo materials that you might be able to save, but aren't useful for feeding (this is good though if you want to stockpile)
* no fodder monsters
* 500 more rank exp (10*50)
* 800 more gold (16*50)
It's different in the mid-game, where
a) your big priority is essentially getting a highly evo'd team together so that you can start ranking up all over the place
b) you're debatably not powerful enough to reliably run Goddess of Rainbow
c) you likely don't have as much evo material stockpiled
at that point, sure, running the Friday dungeon to gain evo material and stockpile is great. But in the late game, you'll likely have many copies of a lot of the evo material and thus even if you do get a dublit out of the run, you might not hold onto the other 3-4 spirits (high or low) that you get if you've already got a ton. Even then, you're powerful enough that I think there are better ways to spend your stamina than running the Expert Wed/Fri.

Let me ask a question.
If you knew I was privy to information about where you were placed in Google for what term and what techniques you used to beat your competitors to get that placement AND some person called me and I started showing them the placement and describing how you got there.
How would you feel?
Well if it were me and my site, I'd feel like dropping you as a service provider and never trusting you with private company data again! I've long assumed most of my clients feel the same way.
I've had a very strong policy of NOT disclosing my clients, their placements or the techniques I used to get those placements to ANYBODY without the explicit permission of my client.
I deal almost exclusively with VERY competitive keywords and industries. My clients have invested a LOT of $ to be able to secure top spots and the last thing they want is one of the people on their payroll telling strangers about what they have and how they got it. This has resulted in my clients completely trusting me with their online marketing strategies NOT to disclose proprietary information and that is how it should be.
BUT I buy things online and like most user of the web as a way to purchase goods and services more than once, I've been robbed, cheated, ripped off and swindled. I know how hard it is to trust someone and how wanting to see results is important. So it's common that potential new customers want to see results.
I have some clients that I've worked with long enough that understand the motivation as well as I do and they have given me permission to use them AND SOME OF THEIR PLACEMENTS as examples. One such client is David Russell of Seocompanydallas.blikini.com. He is also one of our oldest wholesale accounts as he is primarily a designer and outsources most of his seo work to me.
He is one of our first clients to use Blikini as well and has allowed me to use the project as examples of what social media seo can do.
So I am going to share some of the results of our first 30 days working on his website.
The objective was to show proof of concept and help him establish a social media management outsourcing service in Dallas.
{Using a proxy service showing an IP in NYC, and searching from Bangalore he is #17 after the first 5 days of starting his blog.}
Also, the client's own domain is well established site that we provided optimized content for a social media services page and then linked the blog to that and it is #1 from nowhere for many of those type of keywords. THAT IS HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK!
Checking today, the clients site is #3 for
Social media management outsourcing service in dallas
And the Blikini blog is #20. No one has done anything to promote the blog or post except this article being published and commented on. I'll instruct the team to do it's thing and check back next week and I'll think you'll see those placements improve. This is a great case study on social media SEO!
In fact, it's the ONLY actual exercise being published as it happens on the planet. I think that is pretty cool!
Of course, that is a pretty long long-tail keyword and alone won't generate the traffic needed to hit our income projection. BUT when coupled with

There is no denying that my formula of 25% traditional, 25% video/mobile and 50% social media USING A PLATFORM THAT ENGAGES LIKE MINDED HUMANS is the powerful combination that
#1. Makes google look smart
#2. Offers extra ad inventory for them to display personalized advertising
#3. Engages real human interaction which is what search engines want right now because it gives them the data they want to track personalized data so they can deliver more relevant ads.
If you are in the social media industry and have any questions as it pertains to SEO I may be able to help and I'm happy to do so.
Update 14-10-11
Just like I told you 2 weeks ago, now we will start seeing the competitive short tail stuff start showing up! #32 today for social media marketing in Dallas.
Remember the "in Dallas" delimiter is because we're searching from NYC. If you were in Dallas you wouldn't need to add that. Google would add it for you.

Conscious Travel is a movement, a community and a learning program that enables places to attract and welcome guests in a manner that doesn't cost the earth.
The operating model that has created a global tourism industry is dying and a new model is emerging. The rules of the game are being re-invented, right now.
Tourism is system of three elements: Places, Guests and Hosts. As such, it's all about PEOPLE. If people change their values and their perception of how the world works, then everything else changes.Similarly, tourism is embedded in and dependent on a biosphere for its life support.
There are multiple forces shaking up the tourism system:
- The key human actors in the system are shifting not only their values but their core understanding of how the world works;
- The industrial model on which tourism is based is collapsing. As it matures, it produces diminishing net returns to all participants, and relies on volume growth to compensate for yield declines. As visitor volume increases, so do the costs associated with resource depletion, pollution and wealth concentration..
- External pressures will require the tourism economy to pay significantly more for services that hitherto have been free or relatively cheap. These cost increases will occur when reduced incomes and higher demand volatility are already compromising the resilience and profitability of existing businesses.
Survival and prosperity depend not just on becoming green but waking up to a whole new way of doing business that deploys a very different set of "P" words than the ones learned at college:
Practitioners of the new, ecological model know that shareholder profit will be generated if the focus is on creating value for all stakeholders (Michael Porter's "shared value"). They know that Profit follows Purpose – a commitment to use the business to make the world a better place. Instead of discounting their primary asset – the Place – they focus on protecting, expressing and celebrating its unique Personality to sustain and increase its value to guests. The passion of all hosts (employees, suppliers, residents), combines with a clear sense of Purpose to PULL in (attract) the kind of guest who will most value what the provider has to offer. The concept of Protection encompasses environmental sustainability, social justice and cultural rejuvenation – we believe hosts must act as stewards and custodians of the land and people on which their business depends.
Unless tourism enterprises embrace the new model they will continue to see their profit margins shrink; their resilience to external shocks weaken; and their viability diminish. Tourism entrepreneurs and their communities need to assume responsibility for changing and cannot assume that traditional institutions or agencies can supply fixes.
Conscious Travel is building an e-learning platform and on and offline communities designed to stimulate and nourish the capacity of tourism entrepreneurs – the 99% – to flourish in new market circumstances.

Feeling Hopeless and Need Advice
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 02-25-2013 - 9:04am
Hello everyone....this is my first post here but I am really hoping for some guidance. I'm feeling incredibly furstrated and overwhelmed and just plain helpless.
A little background on me....I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2004 but was able to conceive my first daughter naturally in 2005. After six years of "not trying" but "not preventing" I got a surprise BFP in November 2012 only to lose the baby on Christmas Day. The ordeal has been heartbreaking and the absolute hardest thing I have ever been through.
My OB advised that an "established pregnancy" tends to put the PCOS in check for the several months following a miscarriage and that, if we decided to conceive again, our best bet was to try in the next 2-6 months. Given that advice, I decided to start charting this cycle (I had my first AF after my D&E and started charting that day).
Here's my low down:
- I've been temping - though I don't think it's reliable because since the miscarriage I haven't slept for more than 3 hours at a time.
- I've been monitoring CM and yesterday and today have had the EWCM.
- Yesterday I had some bad lower back pain, seems to feel better this morning. I've also had some very mild cramps and my boobs have been/are tender.for the last 2 days.
Now for the one check that has me feel like this is all for naught... I've been taking OPKs since CD6. All were negative until CD22. Today is CD25 and I am still getting blazing positives (4 days later!). I know that women with PCOS can sometimes always get positive due to increased levels of LH throughout their cycle but mine were all negative until a few days ago.
Can anyone tell me if this is normal? I'm so frustrated and annoyed...I really thought for the first time ever my body was actually going to work like it should. Now I kind of just want to crawl into a hole and cry.
Thanks in advance for the help.... I really appreciate it.
|Mon, 02-25-2013 - 4:43pm
Hello melstei. I'm so very sorry for your loss :(
You could have caught the levels both rising and going back down, which is why you are seeing positives for 4 days. Are they all the same darkness or did they start out a bit lighter and are getting lighter now? I would take it as a good sign that you ovulated, with the test results and your other symptoms. Have you managed to fit in some good BDing sessions?
|Wed, 02-27-2013 - 1:54pm
|Fri, 03-01-2013 - 5:28pm
I totally understand ,I have PCOS as well. And we have Struggled to concieve all together we have no live children and 5 total losses so far 4 early losses and one late loss at 19 weeks:( its rough !! I know what you are going through stay strong and know that it does happen I am not PG an things are looking good! Things will work out for you regardless of age.
|Fri, 03-01-2013 - 5:48pm
I am so sorry for your loss. It can be normal to get your first positive OPK cd22 and have it for multiple days. I usually get 2-3 positive OPK's at a time. I think with PCOS it is also common to ovulate later on in your cycle. Have you seen a shift in your temps to show that ovulation occured? You don't always need 3 consecutive hours of sleep to see the shift. I can see it in my charts but never get the right amount of sleep.
