Hank Greenberg
Amid the rising anti-Semitism of the 1930s, Hank Greenberg's baseball heroics took on symbolic meaning for many Jewish Americans. He was the first baseball star to enter the military in World War II, doing so voluntarily. On the field he overcame several injuries to lead the American League in homers three times, including 58 circuit blows in 1938. On the final day of the 1945 season, having returned from the war just weeks earlier, Greenberg hit a grand slam in the ninth inning that clinched the pennant for the Detroit Tigers.
Unform Number
#7 (1933), #5 (1934-1941, 1945-1947)
Replaced By
They wanted to get Rudy York into their lineup, so Detroit moved Hank to left field in 1940. When Detroit sold him to Pittsburgh in 1947, they moved outfielder Roy Cullenbine to first base to fill Hank's shoes. When Greenberg retired from the Pirates in 1948, the Bucs replaced him at first with "Big Ed" Stevens, who hit a grand total of 28 homers in his six-year career.
Best Season
Greenberg had several spectacular seasons, including 1934 when he hit 63 doubles and batted .339, and 1935 when he batted .328 with 98 extra-base hits and 170 RBI, and 1937 when he drove in 183 runs, scored 137, belted 103 extra-base hits, and batted .337. Or what about 1940? He batted .340 with a .670 slugging percentage, 50 doubles, and 41 homers, and 150 RBI. But 1938 stands out because of the 58 home runs, the second highest total to that point in history. Greenberg blasted two more into a screen that wasn't there when Ruth hit his 60 in 1927, so with a little luck and some help from the engineers, Hank may have tied the record. He also had a homer washed out in a rain game. Greenberg's doubles turned into homers in '38 (he hit just 23 two-baggers), but he still drove in 146. He also walked 119 times and posted a career-high .683 SLG.
Factoid 1
In 1937, Hank Greenberg fell one RBI short of Lou Gehrig's AL record of 184. In 1938, Hank came within two home runs of the then single-season record of 60 set by Babe Ruth.
January 18, 1947: Purchased by the Pittsburgh Pirates from the Detroit Tigers.
Hit his 300th home run on September 17, 1946. Had he not missed three full seasons and parts of two others to World War II, he likely would have hit 500 homers.
Greenberg's Best Day in the Big Leagues
Greenberg's grand slam on the final day of the 1945 season against the St. Louis Browns won the American League pennant for the Tigers. The blast came in the top of the ninth and eliminated the Washington Senators, who had finished their season a week earlier due to scheduling conflicts with pro football. The Tigers had trailed 3-2 before loading the bases to set up the dramatic homer by Greenberg, which is perhaps the most historic home run in Detroit Tiger history.
Greenberg Gardens
In 1947, the Pirates moved their left field fence in to accommodate their new slugger Hank Greenberg. The resulting area beyond the fence was known as "Greenberg Gardens". The 36-year old slugger hit 25 home runs that season, his last.
Front-Office Man
Hired by Cleveland Indians owner Bill Veeck in 1948, Hank Greenberg soon became the Indians' general manager. While with Cleveland, Greenberg helped lead the campaign to integrate baseball, won AL pennants in 1948 and 1954, and set attendance records. Following Veeck to Chicago, Greenberg joined the White Sox in 1958 as part-owner and vice-president. In 1959, the White Sox won their first AL pennant in 40 years. After severing his relationship with the White Sox in 1961, Hank became a successful investment banker in New York City and later moved to Beverly Hills, California. He was one of baseball's most successful ex-players.

At a time when the poor health of electricity distribution firms is raising concerns, NTPC chief Arup Roy Choudhury on Friday said the problems with state electricity boards are more "political and social" in nature.
Talking about the power sector, NTPC chairman and managing director Arup Roy Choudhury said that there is a wrong perception that electricity is free. "There is a wrong feeling, especially now that this is election time, that probably power is free. Power has an economic cost. About 75% of the power tariff is the cost of fuel...," Roy said here during a panel discussion at the India Economic Conclave.
Noting that problems with state electricity boards are different, he said it is "more of a political and social problem".
State-owned NTPC is the country's largest power producer and has an installed generation capacity of over 41,700 MW. The accumulated losses of state power distribution firms were estimated to be around R2.46 lakh crore as on March 31, 2012.
Planning Commission deputy chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said that if the politics of the country does not lead to a sensible distribution policy, all investments in the power sector would be infructuous since money is collected by the power distribution companies.
Stressing that "good sense is beginning to dawn", he said that in recent times several states have increased electricity tariffs. Jindal Steel and Power (JSPL) MD and CEO Ravi Uppal highlighted issues faced by private power producers.
"I can't think of any private power projects that are taking off now because the private sector today is in an atmosphere of uncertainty, unpredictability," he said during the panel discussion on 'Breaking the Infrastructure Jinx'.

"To Monday morning, it'll come sooner than you think." So said poor sodden Freddy Rumsen, after whiz dribbled down his leg before an important pitch meeting and he got the boot from not just his job, but also his very identity. This was an episode of existential crises flying fast and furious, as men wondered whether it was worth it to stay married and women worried over their very worth. Hanging over everyone's head was the breaking news of Marilyn Monroe's apparent suicide.
Don and Peggy, always fighting so hard to deny their swollen hearts, were a study in detachment in the elevator up to Sterling Cooper. The only one in that airless box with any sense of empathy was Hollis. "You hear about Marilyn? Poor thing," he asked the duo. "It's very upsetting," bleeped Peggy, sounding like Hal from 2001. Don, in the same voice one would use to read off the price of peas, allowed himself only to say that, "Suicide is disturbing." Hollis, in answer to Peggy's careless question of what a movie star could possibly have to be upset about, delivered a character study of his passengers with this one line: "Some people just hide in plain sight." Okay, so maybe that sums up our hero and heroine in too pat a fashion, but Mad Men so rarely indulges in cliché that the scene still had real oomph. Hollis has it in him to be thinking about what another person, in this case Joe DiMaggio, is going through, while Peggy, under Don's approving gaze, could only think about the woman's death in relation to the Playtex account.
While the secretaries huddled in sniveling pods — and one narcissistically declared that she's "never even taken pills, even when I had a headache," — Joan sought private refuge for her grief on Roger's couch, thinking the boss man was gone on cocktail hour. "What's wrong, Red?" Roger said when he walked in on her. "You miss me?" (It's always about him with this guy.) After Roger tsked her for mourning Marilyn's death, Joan sadly teased that "Yes, I'm just another frivolous secretary." But she didn't apologize for her tears. "This world destroyed her," she said, as Roger gripped her wrist like a vise and reminded the curvy bombshell that she was nothing like Marilyn, except maybe in the measurements department. Joan coolly withdrew herself from his hold and, like a specter out of a Charles Dickens story, told Roger that one day he would experience real loss and finally understand what it means to be in pain.
If Joan knows her way around matters of grief and loss, Jane can only playact at such depth. Oozing self-entitlement, she sat in Don's office and announced that his daughter had called wondering when her Daddy would be getting home from his business trip. She batted her lashes and, like a boob, told Don she was there for him if he ever needed a bony shoulder to cry on. First Don dumbly explained away his marital discord — "Mrs. Draper is working on some things" — and then he coldly reminded Jane that he did not know her at all and she'd better back off with the concerned doe eyes.

When people have alcohol in their system above a certain level, it's safe to say that in a scientific sense that they are impaired at the time the measurement was taken. That's because alcohol travels through a person's system in a relatively quick fashion, and the tests that are used will catch someone who is under the influence of this substance. However, that is not necessarily how it works with other drugs, as it's possible for certain substances to remain in a person's system long after he or she was impaired by any of them. This leads to complications when it comes to testing for DUI in Arizona.
One of the substances that tends to work like that is marijuana. Active ingredients in marijuana tend to remain in a person's system for some time, and that has been the subject of much controversy regarding DUI arrests in Arizona. An appeals court has recently ruled on this issue, and below is a brief overview of this ruling. Anyone who has been arrested and faces prosecution for this crime needs to obtain the help of experienced Arizona DUI defense lawyers as soon as possible.
When someone is arrested on suspicion of DUI in Arizona, they can have their blood and/or their urine tested for the presence of intoxicants. These tests tend to reveal the presence of two different compounds that indicate marijuana use. One of these compounds leads to intoxication while the other does not. This question was the center of the case that an appeals court recently analyzed.
A suspect was arrested on suspicion of DUI in Arizona and tests revealed the presence of marijuana. The defendant claimed that the mere presence of marijuana in the system did not definitively prove that he was under the influence of the drug at the time. The trial court agreed, stating that it was illogical to use evidence to convict someone that did not prove that he had committed the crime as it is laid out in the statutes.
However, the higher court overruled this decision and stated that the test could be used and that the presence of marijuana in a person's system could be used as evidence of that person's intoxication at the time he or she operated a vehicle. The court held that this was valid even though the presence of marijuana can remain in a person's system for up to four weeks after using it.
Clearly, this decision is a blow to people who use marijuana, even if they live in a state where medical marijuana is legal and such a person has a permit to use it. This is yet another reason that anyone who is arrested on suspicion of this crime needs to take immediate steps to build a strong defense. If you or someone you love face this charge, you need to seek the help of Arizona DUI defense lawyers who have been standing up for the rights of the accused for many years. Contact the Law Offices of Douglas A. Schwab today to schedule an initial consultation.

The word "quadragonal" is the only word with "dragon" in it where "dragon" is not a root word. That makes it awesome.
Nice chapter, Maylene is so cute and she's starting to grow on me. Keep it up! :)
What an amazing response!
El_Noobio: Don't give away plot points! :O But it was obvious, considering the word "Money" and anyone who talks to all NPCs in the game (like me) should easily connect them...
Dragonite Ernston: I'll work on it. Hopefully the next chapter will improve.
Tsutarja: Glad to see you taking a liking to her.
Thank you all for the comments!
Ah, it's nice to see a Maylene fic. :) I really like her. You can count on me continuing to read. :P
Though I kinda find it funny that you show her as more or less of a glutton, 'cause the Pokemon Specials manga says she had gone through starvation to become stronger. Or so I remember.
It's because I've never read that manga (except for Volume 1), and I'm basing my story more on the games than on the Anime/Manga. And In HGSS, she's exactly that way.
Thanks for reading and commenting!Originally Posted by Maylene
I liked the first chapter, especially Maylene's "catchphrase" if you could call it tha, it was a little bit uneventful but I know it worked more as an introductory chapter.

Show, don't tell. Instead of that, something like the following would work better:"I got mud on the floor," Maylene said even though the mud was visible ever since they had entered the Gym and she was just stating the obvious. "Do you clean?"
But I guess that's just me nitpicking."I got mud on the floor," Maylene said. She glanced around, observing the large brown patches that soiled the otherwise clean floor. "Do you clean?
D'AWWW. That's just adorable."We can train on our way back!" Maylene jumped up in excitement and Riolu copied. "Come on! Let's go! Run run run run run!"
Lowercase H."We're not training! We're running! Are you ready?!" He shouted.
Lowercase H."I shouldn't be this tired!" He said and stood up straight. "I am strong!"
XD YOU GO, GIRL."But I am Strongest!" Maylene grinned and punched Crasher Wake, and he acted as if she threw him back a few paces.
an**She held the door open for the pair, and picked Riolu up as if he was am infant.
Lowercase H."I'll go catch up with your father!" He said and walked away to her parents' room,
Lowercase S."How was your training today, Maylene?" She said as she stirred something that was cooking on the oven.
burst**Maylene's mother almost burs into laughter at the last statement,
Lowercase S."I will also become an Aura Master!" She shouted and stretched her arms out, as if she was firing some sort of an aura attack.
;-; Awww. That's sweet."Because even when you grow up and become the Strongest, you will still be my child."
Anyways, nice chapter, and sorry for the late-ish review. Sickness sucks. It's a small, odd thing, but I like how you captured Maylene's cannon obsession with food. And as with before, I like her childish spirit: the fact that she has arguing parents and she doesn't let it bother her.
Update soon!

Crasher Wake left back to Pastoria the next day after spending the night telling stories of his wresting matches to Maylene. It took her some time, but she eventually fell asleep. Her mother insisted on Crasher Wake spending the night in the guest room, as it was too dark outside, which seemed absurd considering that Crasher Wake could take care of himself.
'Good morning, sleepy girl.'
'I dreamed that I kicked Crasher Wake all across Sinnoh,' Maylene said while rubbing her eyes. Her mother let out a fragile giggle and shifted her attention back to making breakfast. 'I also became very strong and made a new city called MayleneWorld. I became Gym Leader and very strong. Everyone loved me because I was strong.'
'That's sweet,' her mother said. 'Come here and have breakfast.' Maylene walked up to a small chair and pulled it to the kitchen, where her mother had made something edible. She began munching away at it while her mother talked. 'I also got a call from dad's friend in Snowpoint, Candice is going to come to Veilstone. Isn't that exciting? You haven't seen her in a long time!'
'Yeah!' Maylene exclaimed. 'But what do I do? She likes clothes and hair and makeup and looks and beauty and I don't.'
'But you're still friends.'
That was partially true. Maylene and Candice weren't close friends at all; everything that happened between was awkward and their conversations were shallow. Maylene didn't like hanging out with Candice, but she has proved to be a good battler who was always willing to learn from Maylene, as well as teach her some skills.
'I guess I can go play with her,' Maylene said as she took the last bite of what she finally recognized as a sandwich, though the ingredients were still unknown. 'When will she be here?'
'In a few hours,' her mother answered. 'But I don't want you to just spend your time battling; get to know each other.'
'I will, mom,' Maylene said, got up and ran to hug her mother. 'Thanks for the food. I will go outside now!'
Maylene ran off before her mother could finish her generic 'Be careful!' sentences. She flung the door wide open and ran through the Gym. She jumped over obstacles, avoided a few kicks and punches, and got out of the Gym.
It was as sunny as ever. Maylene looked at her hometown and couldn't help but feel proud. The future for Sinnoh was looking bright. Many greeted her as she walked around the town. After years of walking barefoot, she learned to ignore the pain, and slowly her body became accustomed to it.
She walked towards the meteorites that rested on the eastern side of the city. The four shiny rocks glittered under the sunlight, the gray reflecting on the small craters surrounding them, and the wind moving some of their dust around. Maylene was mesmerized by the sight, and reconsidered the differences between her and Candice; she obviously cared for beautiful things.
'Maylene,' a male voice called out to her, but the meteorites captivated her too much for her to notice it. 'Maylene!' He said again and she immediately recognized the voice.
'Daddy!' she jumped up and turned to see her father standing with a Poké Ball in his hand. 'Good morning!' She ran up to her father, and in a swift movement jumped up to kick him. Her foot connected with his chest, and the pair fell to the ground.
'I just wanted to bring Riolu to you,' he laughed. 'You should really stop kicking me whenever you see me. I was young when I told you to start, but I'm not anymore.'
'You're still young,' Maylene said. 'Your hair is not white yet.'
'Here's Riolu,' he rolled the Poké Ball over to Maylene and got up to dust himself off. 'Have fun with Candice, and be careful.'
'Sure thing daddy.' Maylene wanted to talk more, but her father had already turned his body away from her and walked off. She sighed and looked down at the Poké Ball that was sitting in front of her.
She grabbed it and got up, dusted herself off in the same manner as her father, and sent out her Riolu. The Pokémon formed and yawned for what seemed like aged. 'Are you ready, Riolu?' Maylene asked excitedly and Riolu looked at her with a confused look. 'Candice is coming!'
Riolu smiled and let out a cry of excitement as well. Maylene began running and he ran behind her. The pair seemed to just want to run around the city in circles, which was another form of training they would do. He feet made light sounds against the ground beneath her, her hair started flying farther behind her as she increased her speed, and a smile spread across her face as she saw Riolu beating her.
'You're getting faster!' she shouted. 'But I am getting faster too!' She increased the speed in which he legs moved, and took even longer steps. She looked as if she was jumping from one point to the other. Her feet made louder sounds whenever she hit the gravel, her body started tiring, but she managed to run past Riolu.
The Pokémon copied her actions, and slowly started catching up to her again. Maylene looked back at the Pokémon with another wide smile, unaware of the Department Store in front her. She began laughing and closed her eyes, which made Riolu's frantic arm waving for her to look forward useless. She opened her eyes after a few seconds to see that her surroundings has changed. The horizon lost the trees and adapted walls, the ground felt softer, and a faint sound of music surrounded her. She realized that she had gone through the automatic doors, which meant that she was heading for the counter.
But he realization came too late. Before Maylene could even think of slowing down, her legs hit a hard surface and her body flipped upside down. She could see the other end of the counter attached to the roof and everything else hanging upside down. Her back smashed against the opposite side of the counter, and she let out a scream of pain before falling to the ground.
A few people ran up to her and gasped as they realized that she was Maylene, the Gym Leader's daughter. Riolu ran up to her and pulled her head, which seemed odd at first, but her body slowly moved after the Riolu. Her legs fell to the ground, her body straightened, and after Riolu jumped onto the side Maylene crashed into, her body became in a sitting position.
A few seconds later, she opened her eyes to hear gasps of relief. 'I'm not that hurt,' she said. 'Just a scratch, it'll go away.' More gasps of relief, followed by a few people leaving the scene. 'Sorry about that,' she chuckled nervously. 'Didn't want to make problems. Riolu, let's continue training!'
She jumped up and over the counter. Riolu followed her through the door and back outside. 'How long have we been running for?' She asked, even though she knew that Riolu wasn't able to answer. The light of the day changed since she last remembered it; she never gave attention to her surroundings while running. 'Candice should be here soon, I think.' Riolu nodded and the pair walked back to the Gym, where, as expected, Candice was waiting.
She was as tall as Maylene. Candice had black hair tied into two braids the extended out, which matched her brown eyes. She wore a white shirt and a short orange skirt that was the same colour as her shoes. She had a blue sweater tied around her waist and a blue bowtie that matched her striped socks.
Beside her was a round black Pokémon covered in a yellow and orange triangular cape. She had small blue eyes and round feet and hands. The Snorunt noticed Maylene and pulled at Candice's socks slightly, which cause her to turn her head a little and shift her attention from Maylene's mother to Maylene.
'Maylene!' the smile on her face broadened. 'I just got here! How are you?'
Maylene's mother walked out of the scene after finishing her talk with Candice and went to watch a show about berries. Candice walked up to Maylene and shook a little, confused as to whether or not to hug her.
'I'm good,' Maylene responded. 'How are you?'
'Just feeling a little hot,' she laughed. 'You don't have the snow that we have in Snowpoint.'
'Yeah, we don't,' Maylene laughed as well. 'What made you come here?'
'I was going to Hearthome to see a Pokémon Super Contest! Why don't you come with me?'
'I'm fine with you going,' her mother added. 'I talked with Candice about it before you came here. You can go if you want, just be careful while on the road.'
Candice reached out and grabbed Maylene's hand. 'We will have fun!' she said and dragged Maylene behind her. 'Let's go, Snorunt!'
Snorunt followed them, and Riolu was the last to leave the house. Candice let go of Maylene's hand, and the pair began running through Veilstone, towards Hearthome. She couldn't understand why she was going with Candice. Maylene has never been interested in these types of contests; she preferred battling. But having no friend but a foreign wrestler who is old enough to be her dad didn't seem enough.
Candice was always warm and friendly to Maylene, who she didn't object to that. Even though it was awkward and weird, she still appreciated their shallow friendships, and hoped that the contest would strengthen it.
Before realising it, she was already in Hearthome City. 'We really ran fast,' she said. 'Is that even possible?'
She turned around to see that Candice wasn't there, but Riolu was. 'Were we too fast for them?' Maylene laughed. 'Let's go back to join them again.' Riolu nodded and turned around, ready to run back towards wherever they left Candice and Snorunt.
A beam of ice suddenly drew itself from the horizon and towards Maylene's feet. A small dot began approaching them, and it was soon evident that it was Candice and Snorunt. The Pokémon skidded across the ice, with Candice right behind him. She looked as happy as Maylene was when Crasher Wake ran with her on his shoulder. Her hair blew back the way she came, and her smile was wide.
Maylene remembered the time when she was careless for a few moments in time, and relived it. She smiled and jumped onto the ice. The force made her skid across it towards the approaching Candice. Snorunt jumped off of the trail to avoid being crushed by the two girls.
'I won't get off!' Candice shouted. 'You should give up!'
'I never give up!' Maylene shouted back. 'You're the one who should get off of the ice.'
'We'll crash into each other!'
'We will!'
Candice bent her knees a little, which seemed to increase her speed. Maylene struggled to stay on the ice, but she didn't want to fall off and allow Candice to win this. The girls approached each other. Candice flowing elegantly across the ice, one leg in front of her and the other bent awkwardly behind her.
'If you don't get off I might knock you over!'
The distance became shorter. Candice's right foot was mere meters away from Maylene's. Panic overtook the latter, and before she knew it, she was on the grass again. Candice passed her, laughing childishly as she waved for Snorunt to jump back onto the ice.
It was at that moment that Maylene realised something; she can't be the Strongest without learning from Candice.
Their friendship was just starting.

OH GOD I FELT THAT THROUGH THE COMPUTER. ;-;But he realization came too late. Before Maylene could even think of slowing down, her legs hit a hard surface and her body flipped upside down.

You were doing so well! Lowercase S."How long have we been running for?" She asked,
Cute chapter. I like Candice. :3 And her Snorunt is absolutely adorable.
Update quick.
Thanks to ShinySandshrew of serebiiforums for the banner!
I love this chapter, it was short but I think we saw enough of Candice for this chapter. I like how different they are, thought I believe they will eventually become close friends.
Keep it up!
Next up, Maylene is split into two!
Maylene has been to Hearthome City before, but she had forgotten how beautiful it is. She didn't expect it to be this entertaining for someone who is more interested in battling, but the display of beauty and coordination in the contest excited her; it showed a whole new side of Pokémon to her.
She sat between Candice and some loud girl who booed Fantina, the Hearthome City Gym Leader, when she won with Loony the Drifblim. Candice walked out with the crowd and Maylene followed. She struggled to keep up with her, as it was very crowded, and no one seemed to notice a small girl amongst them as they bushed her around. Riolu clang on to Maylene's right foot until they managed to get out, where Candice and Snorunt were waiting.
'Did you like the contest?' Candice started. 'I loved it! It was so exciting. Did you see Fantina? I want to be like her one day! Strong and elegant!'
'It was very good,' Maylene said. 'And fun. We should do this more often.'
Suddenly, an arm wrapped itself around Maylene's neck. It was covered with a black sleeve and a green cloak; Maylene recognized it as the loud girl's arm.
'Some contest, right?!' she shouted. 'Though I didn't like that Ghost Pokémon, even if it was Fantina's.'
'Who are you?' Maylene said as soon as she broke out of her grasp.
'I'm Gardenia,' she said. 'And I know that you're Maylene; I saw you at the party a few years back. Wanted to meet you ever since. Punching a large body like that; you must be rebellious.'
Maylene had turned around and managed to attach a more accurate look to the name. Gardenia had short orange and black hair, and her clothing seemed to be a wild mixture of green, black and orange, with most of her midsection showing.
'I'm Candice,' Candice said. 'A friend of Maylene's. Nice to meet you.'
'Where are you girls going?' Gardenia asked. 'If you have nothing important to do, we could have out little adventure together.'
Maylene glanced over at Candice who seemed to have surrendered the decision away. She thought it over for a few seconds. Her mother wouldn't want her getting into any kinds of trouble, but she trusted Maylene, and knows that she can take care of herself. Crasher Wake on the other hand, would approve in a heartbeat.
'Alright,' Maylene said. 'What kind of adventure?'
'I'll call it 'The Quest to Find a Cute Boy', and I know just the one. You guys just follow me.'
'Where to?' Candice asked, but Gardenia had already run off, and Maylene followed her. She sprinted after the pair, all the while questioning why they should trust this complete stranger.
Gardenia led them out of Hearthome City and into a cave that everyone in Sinnoh knew as Mt. Coronet. Maylene jumped over obstacles and looked as if she was a free running expert; why didn't Crasher Wake train her here before?
'Where are we going?' Maylene shouted after the speeding Gardenia.
'To Oreburgh City!' Gardenia responded. 'To the Gym Leader's son!'
The group went through an exit, and ran across a long path, then down a slope, where Oreburgh City awaited them. Gardenia seemed to know her way around, while Maylene looked around in surprise; all the buildings, roads, people, they were all different from Veilstone, Hearthome, and Pastoria City.
'What do you think of this city?' Candice asked, breaking Maylene's trance of awe. 'I've passed it before, but never visited it fully. Now, it makes me happy to know that where we live has so many different cities.'
'I like it,' Maylene responded simply. 'It's different.'
The pair followed Gardenia to the Gym, where they met the famous Byron. He was a large man with scruffy purple hair and worn-out clothes. But his son, Roark, was who they came to meet. He had a different shade of his father's hair, though it was obviously more taken care of. His eyes matched his hair, and his clothes seemed to be those of a worker. The final touch was a helmet with a flashlight.
Gardenia seemed to know them both before hand, and it didn't take long for Roark to leave his father's side and follow them outside. 'This is Roark,' Gardenia started the typical line. 'These are Maylene and Candice, from somewhere and somewhere.'
'Nice to meet you two,' Roark said and tipped his helmet a little bit. 'Are you friends of Gardenia?'
'You could say that,' Maylene laughed. 'We're recent friends.'
'Let's train!' Gardenia exclaimed. 'I know you want to become a Gym Leader, Maylene; I also heard that at the party. Roark wants to become a Gym Leader as well, so do I! What about you Candice?'
'I haven't given it much thought…' Candice said. 'I'm not very good at battling.'
'Then you'll train with us!' Gardenia shouted.
One Year Later
'Hello, Maylene!' Crasher Wake kicked down Maylene's door, much to everyone's surprise. But Maylene didn't care about the door; Crasher Wake was here!
He had left for some business in Johto a few months ago, and seeing her mentor for the first time in years brought more joy to Maylene then she could have imagined.
'Huge man!' she shouted and jumped towards him to hug him. As soon as her body collided with his, they were both sent tumbling back towards the wall, which suffered an obvious dent as Crasher Wake smashed against it. 'I missed you, stupid person!'
'I leave for a few months and Gardenia affects your speech this much?' he laughed, and Maylene followed. By now, his accent has transformed completely and became undistinguishable from Maylene's, and his trip to Johto wasn't long enough to change it.
Maylene had also changed with time. She had grown a little taller, her speech began resembling Gardenia's, who had become a close friend along with Candice and Roark, and her free spirit grew to become wilder than it was before.
'What did you do in Johto?' Maylene said. 'Tell me all about it, person!'
'The details don't matter,' Crasher Wake said. The pair had got off of the floor and sat of the bed. 'I came back for a short time, I will go back to Johto in a few hours.'
'You came just to visit me?'
'That and something else,' Crasher Wake said. 'I have talked to a friend of mine. His name is Chuck, he's a Gym Leader there and is currently training some boy named Brawly to become a Gym Leader as well. He accepted to train you.'
'But I was happy training with you and my friends,' Maylene's tone dropped to one that resembled her former speech. 'I didn't even have much time to grow Strongest.'
'You will meet them again,' Crasher Wake said. 'And you will make new friends as well. This will help you, Maylene. Your parents had already agreed on you going. Besides, I'll be there as well.'
Maylene lowered her head and faced the sheets of her bed. She thought it over for a few seconds. Was she really willing to abandon her friends without a goodbye? What will Candice, her most trusted friend, thin of her? What about Gardenia, the one who taught her the tough attitude she built upon? What will she do when she realises that Maylene had left? And Roark, the cute boy she had a crush on. Would she have to forget him as well?
'You can always come back at anytime you want,' Crasher Wake said. 'It's just a short boat trip away. So, are you coming?'
Maylene sighed and looked up. Her eyes met Crasher Wake's, her body filled with determination, and her hand reached for Riolu's Poké Ball. She jumped onto the floor and ran out of the room.
'I'll race you there!' she yelled back, even though she didn't know which way to go. But it was a new adventure, and a new quest to make her the Strongest. Who knows, maybe this Brawly boy is cute enough to replace Roark.

So, Maylene goes to Johto? It's kinda strange, first we have a short appearance of Gardenia and then Roark shows up - was it necessary to have them all in this chapter?
Also, I would have preferred if you at least described the contest battle so Maylene could realize the positive sides of contests, you said that she she preferred battling, it would have made a fine transition to this chapter when she realizes that contests are also in a way kinds of battles. We could also hear her comments on the appeal moves.
Anyway, it was an okay chapter. I personally don't think that so many gym leaders are needed in the fic., but hey, it's your story.
Keep it up!

I wanted to use this chapter to establish Maylene's life in Sinnoh. Gardenia was not going to appear in it; she was a last minute add. And I'm not adding Gym Leaders because they're Gym Leaders, they actually play into the plot.
And I'm not very good at describing contests, which is why I skipped it. And Lastly, Johto is where the plot actually begins. There is some action involved, it's not just a "how Maylene trained" story.
But hopefully, you'll like the next chapters. :)
Nitpick time! "who is more". Is is a present-tense verb. The rest of the sentence is past tense. Replace is with was.She didn't expect it to be this entertaining for someone who is more interested in battling,
GARDENIAAA. I LOVE GARDENIA. :3"I'm Gardenia," she said. "And I know that you're Maylene; I saw you at the party a few years back. Wanted to meet you ever since. Punching a large body like that; you must be rebellious."
Okay, so you contradict yourself here. I assume you meant "seeing her mentor for WHAT FELT LIKE the first time in years".He had left for some business in Johto a few months ago, and seeing her mentor for the first time in years brought more joy to Maylene then she could have imagined.
CHUCK. Sweet!"That and something else," Crasher Wake said. "I have talked to a friend of mine. His name is Chuck, he's a Gym Leader there and is currently training some boy named Brawly to become a Gym Leader as well. He accepted to train you."
Another tense error. Will is present tense. Would is what you're looking for. Same with realises: it's present tense. You're looking for realised.What will she do when she realises that Maylene had left
Good chapter! I hate that Gardenia's appearance was so short. :( But I'll live, I guess.
Can't wait to see Chuck and Brawly in. So fighting leader tutoring the fighting leaders; I suppose Chuck'll be a little less chubby than in his game appearance? XD
Update soon!

Sumter Stormwater Solutions Meetings
Sumter North Hope Center
Please join us to plan stormwater education, outreach, and public involvement programs for Sumter County. All meetings are open to the public, so if water quality is important to you, we welcome your input. Meetings are held quarterly (January, April, July and October). Click here to read the minutes from previous meetings.
Storm Drain Marking
Sumter Stormwater Solutions is beginning a volunteer initiative to mark all the stormdrains in communities in the City of Sumter and Sumter County. Storm drains flow to waterways without treatment, so it is very important to warn people not to dump oil, trash, leaves, household chemicals or anything else down a storm drain. Your group can help, by marking the storm drains in your neighborhood! The markers are installed with an easy-to-use adhesive, and younger volunteers can assist by distributing doorhangers to houses in the neighborhood. Contact Jolie Brown, firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
Interested in a presentation on Stormwater Pollution Prevention for your organization?
We offer educational programs for children, adults, and technical audiences, including schools, scout troops, homeowners associations, garden clubs, and water quality interest groups. There is no charge for programs. If you are interested, please call Mary Caflisch at 803-865-1216 ext. 122, or send an email to email@example.com
Right: Students at a local elementary school discover sources of pollution in a community watershed, using a table top model and real water!

"I ordered these cards for my 5 year olds birthday! They are so cute and easy to design! Everyone that got one has commented about them and asked where I got them. The delivery was expensive but I got 2 day rush. Overall I loved them!!"
"These came out amazing! The colors are vibrant and I love the way the upgraded pearl finish looks. People have been asking where I got them and are shocked when i tell them they aren't from some fancy boutique but rather ordered online from the comfort and convenience of my bed. I adore tiny prints. The customer service is also amazing. I made an error on my original batch and the rep told me to send them back and they gave me a full refund. I couldn't believe it! They really just want their customers to be happy and will do what needs to be done to make that happen. This is my second time using Tiny prints and I'm officially a loyal customer now!"
"This invite is super sweet for a little girl. The colors are right on and the fact you can put pictures on the back are great. The paper quality on the normal paper is excellent, nice and thick. I got the scalloped edges which give it such a dainty look. I absolutely love it."
"I got this card for my daughters 1st birthday, and I loved them! The party is rainbow theme, so they went with that. I wanted something with good quality but didn't want to pay an arm and leg! The paper the cards come on is very thick and the pictures look great! I definitely will be using tinyprints again for cards! They also got here really quick after I ordered and they come packaged in a box so they wouldn't bend before you get them! Very happy with my purchase!"

No Jail if You Refuse to Use SSDI Money to Pay Court Ordered Obligations
August 18, 2014 By Jonathan 6 Comments
The Michigan Court of Appeals recently issued an interesting decision in a case called In re Robby Lampart about the right of a state agency to go after a claimant's Social Security disability to enforce a criminal restitution order. In a tightly written opinion which you can read here, the Michigan appellate judges held that a trial court could not use its power of contempt (i.e., putting a defendant in jail) to coerce that defendant to use Social Security funds to pay his obligations.
Usually, of course, the payment dispute involves child support rather than criminal restitution. My sense is that if other courts adopt the Lampart court's reasoning in child support cases, custodial parents would not be able to use contempt actions to incarcerate disabled non-custodial parents although they could use contempt actions to find out what other assets that non-custodial parent might have.
Here's what happened in the Lampart case.
Lampart's mother, Diana Alexandroni, was ordered to pay criminal restitution of $28,210 at rate of $250 per month. The trial judge ordered Ms. Alexandroni to submit to a wage garnishment of $62.50 per week from her job with the funds payable to the State of Michigan. [Read More…]
How Does a Social Security Judge Decide if I have "Transferable Skills" for Grid Rule Purposes?
August 11, 2014 By Jonathan Leave a Comment
This is a good question – the short answer is that judges will look to vocational expert witness testimony to determine whether a claimant has acquired transferable skills.
Your question got me thinking that it might be helpful to review how the grid rules work and to take my readers through a grid rule analysis, so, here you go:
The grid rules, or "medical vocational guidelines" can qualify you for Social Security disability benefits even if you have some capacity to work, but you are not likely to find work because of limited skills and a limited education.
In order to qualify for a finding of disability under the grid rules you must have exertional limitations. This means that your medical issues must impact your physical capacity. Thus, a person asserting disability based on depression, or bi-polar disorder, or schizophrenia could never qualify under the grid rules 1
You can look at the grid rules here.
The grid rules look at several factors: your age, your education, the skill level of your past work and whether or not your past work generated any transferrable skills. SSA lays out these factors in a table divided by grid lines – thus the name.
When a judge applies the grid rules he first must make a decision about your capacity for work. If you are limited to sedentary work, you are more likely to be found disabled under the grid rules than if you are limited to light or medium work.
Let's analyze how the grid rules work in practice. [Read More…]
- Such a person could, however, qualify for disability based on a listing or using a functional capacity argument. ↩
SSA Overpayment Issues Can be Difficult to Handle
July 22, 2014 By Jonathan Leave a Comment
If you need a lawyer to help you with an overpayment issue, you are going to have a hard time finding help. Overpayment cases arise when Social Security discovers that they have paid you too much – sometimes for years – and now they want their money back.
In most cases, you will receive a letter that says something like this:
We are writing to give you new information about the disability/retirement/survivors benefits which you receive on this Social Security record. We have determined that you were overpaid in the amount of $30,000. Please refund this overpayment within 30 days.
An explanation of the overpayment will be included. And, to show that they have some compassion, they do include an envelope. If you do not send them the full amount due they will withhold your monthly benefit check for as many months as it takes to recover the overpayment.
Obviously if your Social Security money is your only source of income, this can be a huge problem.
An overpayment can happen for several reasons.
- Perhaps you were found disabled then returned to work under the Ticket to Work or a trial work period program. Social Security may have continued to pay you disability benefits even after you returned to work.
- You could be an SSI recipient whose income and resources exceeded the stingy limits of that program.
- You could be a disabled widow who was receiving benefits under a deceased spouse's earnings record and now you have remarried.
- The mistake could have been on SSA's end – they may have advised you that you were eligible for a particular type of benefit but later concluded that you were not so eligible.
Whatever the reason, it is probably a safe bet that you don't have $10,000, $20,000 or whatever the overpayment number is claimed. What can you do? [Read More…]
How to Explain Earnings After Your Disability Onset Date
July 8, 2014 By Jonathan 2 Comments
If your earnings record shows salary earned after the date you say you became disabled, you can be sure that the judge in your Social Security disability hearing will ask for an explanation.
Example: you say you became disabled on April 3, but your earnings record shows income in May, June and July.
In this video I explain how I advise my clients to respond to questions about post-onset earnings in three common scenarios:
- unsuccessful work attempts
- accrued earnings or benefits that are paid after the last date you were physically present at work
- part time work
No matter what the reason, always discuss with your lawyer work, work attempts or payments received after the date you claim that your disability began.
Fibromyalgia and Social Security Disability: Can You Still Win?
April 21, 2014 By Jonathan 1 Comment

CNN Report on September 11 PTSD Scam Misses the Mark
January 7, 2014 By Jonathan Leave a Comment
CNN is reporting that more than 100 New York City firefighters have been indicted in connection with disability fraud. These firefighters filed claims for disability under the World Trade Center Disability Law, a source of benefits available only to New York City employees injured as a result of their service on September 11, 2001.
According to CNN, these disability claimants were coached (the CNN article is silent as to who did the coaching) about how to behave to win benefits that can amount to $50,000 per year for total disability.
Investigators discovered, however, that some of these permanently injured claimants were, in fact, working – in one case, teaching martial arts – despite their claimed disability.
Presumably these dishonest, retired firefighters will face civil fines or perhaps criminal prosecution for their actions. [Read More…]

-A new way to merge up those small files!
Many times a hadoop job produces a file per reducer and the job has
many reducers. Or a map only job one output file per input file and
you have many input files. Or you just have many small files from some
external process. Hadoop has sub optimal handling of small files.
There are some ways to handle this inside a map reduce program,
IdentityMapper + IdentityReducer for example, or multi outputs However
we wanted a tool that could be used by people using hive, or pig, or
map reduce. We wanted to allow people to combine a directory with
multiple files or a hierarchy of directories like the root of a hive
partitioned table. We also wanted to be able to combine text or
sequence files.
What we came up with is the filecrusher.
/usr/bin/hadoop jar filecrush.jar crush.Crush /directory/to/compact
/user/edward/backup 50 SEQUENCE
(50 is the number of mappers here)
Code is Apache V2 and you can get it here:

If you want to reduce extra traffic on the LLT links one small thing to do would be to add the following line to /etc/llttab on all the nodes in your cluster (say 2 node cluster):
exclude 2-31
What the above line does is that it assumes that your cluster will always have only 2 nodes (0 and 1) and hence extra packets will not be sent to discover the other nodes periodically. One caveat is that you won't be able to add a node to your cluster on the fly. You could also change the above line to be:
exclude 8-31
and in that case you can grow your 2 node cluster to a maximum of 8 nodes on the fly.
One more thing to note when using LLT is to never have spanning-tree enabled on the switch ports which are used to connect the LLT links. Spanning tree causes a delay in sending pkts when the port is enabled and this can cause the cluster nodes to not join properly.

Is there not a local college who do such things? Swindon New College?Fast Forward is one day a week I think
Fast Forward | Swindon Training and Development Solutions for Businesses
I know there have probably been multiple threads on Apprenticeships, but where does one start to seek an interested candidate.
We have just had IT Apprenticeships in and it seems ok, but they only do a one year course and the candidate is one week in training and one week with us. To me to have a whole week out maybe a pain...
The rate is minimum £2.68 per hour which seems a little low..
Anyone used these guys or recommendations on other training companies to use?

My college reached out to schools, you should do the opposite. Find out who heads the IT support courses and see if their leavers are interested. They know their students better than any company.
We use ABA Training who are the go-to organisation for many of our local schools. Probably a little too far afield for you guys but I think there's probably a large number of equivalent organisations.
We've also taken on quite a few directly from some of our local schools. We do quite a lot with various careers departments.
I am currently an apprentice and all my training is done with Fast Forward! The hours are really flexible and I was out only one day a week for about three months.

I used to run IT apprenticeship schemes for a company a few years back, keep my hand in the game. Experiences and programs will vary provider to provider. 1 week on 1 week off sounds very bad! Apprenticeships should focus as much time on the working and less on the studying as possible (and appropriate). It is just as much about learning how to work as well as learning the theory.
£2.68 is national minimum wage for 16-18 age group and often is all that is paid (remember they are getting your time and patience as well as free training from both you and provider). It is not ideal by any stretch of the imagination, and rules are changing on this again I believe so keep an eye on this. Personally, I always promote paying whatever you would pay an IT technician that is not an apprentice, give them confidence and self worth goes a long way!
Whatever you do, check out the company you use fully for their experience, their OfSTED results, their success rates. QA have decent rep (they are national). There have been high profile cases where companies have not treated their apprentices well (Zenos is one! Just search Google for this. Panorama did a whole program on it).
Happy to answer any other questions on this subject if you have them
In regards to pay, at the apprenticeships I have looked at (they are in London), most IT Support based apprenticeships pay around £150 a week, with some of the highest ones being up to £320 a week.
Even outside of London, Chelmsford College is offering £100.50 per week, and that seems to be the average from what I've been looking at.
Sent from my iPhone using EduGeek
We approached Employers - Apprenticeships directly. They asked if we wanted to work with a local college or a company as the provider. We decided to go with the local college. They came in and discussed everything with us. We gave them a job spec and they advertised the apprenticeship on our behalf. We had 3 candidates apply. We decided that the minimum wage was too low and set the wage at £4.50 per hour for full time hours. We have now got a really good apprentice.
Our apprentice goes to college 1 day a week and we can ask for him to miss the odd week if we are really busy.
Its working out quite well.
We've these sort of things, how does the finance side work? Do you pay the company a 'recruiting fee'?

In 1989, 17 children sued the state, seeking to end racial isolation and extreme segregation in Hartford schools.
John Brittain is the Chief Council of the Lawyers Committee for Civil rights Under Law, and one of the original filing attorneys for the Sheff plaintiffs.
Brittain told WNPR's Where We Live that their goal was, and still is, to promote ethnic, racial and economic diversity and integration to improve education. "We're generally pleased to say that 20 years later, using that well-know political phrase 'are you better off now than you were 20 years ago?' We say emphatically, the answer is yes."
Brittain said although all of goals haven't been met yet, two good results have come out of the case:
First, he cited the state's supreme court original ruling that finds that extreme isolation and unequal educational opportunities is a violation of the state constitution.
Second, he praised the a comprehensive five-year agreement reached last year. It calls for expanded magnet school programs and includes a goal of accommodating 80 percent of parents who wish to send their children to an integrated school.
But critics say some integration mandates have sometimes been at odds with the quality of the education, and parents won't want to send their kids to under-performing schools.
On the same program, Representative Andy Fleichmann, House chair of the education committee, said quality and diversity can be achieved simultaneously.
"The truth is that, as a school starts to achieve excellence academically, it becomes easier to address the isolation issues because parents want in."
Fleichman said he hopes the state's final budget will restore some of the funding that was taken away in Governor Rell's Budget proposal. He said this fiscal crisis doesn't give the state the option of walking away from the Sheff agreement.
