Autumn - ready
Going for a: Gothita
Characters Needed: 10-20k
Characters w/Spaces: 10329
Shaun was walking along the once-dust covered path. The heavy torrential rain had made it squelch with every movement. His dark orange jacket was getting all the pressure from the rain, His grey jeans trailing themselves along in the mud. His white shoes had went a shade of brown and his black cap was the only thing protecting his spectacles. His Mudkip was dreading it, and was walking behind Shaun to protect himself. It's feet were no longer blue to the plain eye, and his tail was also dragging in the mud.
, He thought to himself.
The most horrible time of the year
. As he walked a bush rustled. At first he took no note of it, but as it continued he started becoming cautious, as his Mudkip had been doing the whole time. He started walking faster before being hit by something. He span round and tripped over his own feet, the Mudkip becoming very aware of what happened. Someone or something psychic had used confusion on Shaun.
Mudkip grabbed Shaun's hand with his mouth and started trying to drag him, before hiding again due to the rustling getting louder. He noticed the other Pokeball on Shaun's belt, but it was too late to go back and open it. Gothita was already at Shaun's barely concious body. Only one choice.... He used Water Gun. The Gothita was flung away. He came out of hiding and rammed his head fin into the pokeball. Metapod burst out. Two against one now.
Gothita scowled. She rammed herself against the Metapod, but not before it could use Harden, giving minor damage to both of them. Mudkip smirked, but quickly focused on the matter at hand. It hurriedly used Mud Slap, being increased by the state of the ground, inflicting with the Gothita's sight. It started to rush at Mudkip and use tackle, but Mudkip dodged it narrowly. Shaun started to come to, noticing he was right beside a battle. He rushed himself up and looked at the battle at hand. Mudkip had things sorted out, apparently. He quickly started rushing through his bag. "Pokeball, Pokeball, Pokeball... where are they..." he murmered, before being tripped up by the Gothita, who started jumping on him. He quickly pushed it off. As it tried to hit him again, Mudkip used water gun on the Gothita. Shaun was still hoaking through his bag. "I think I got one!" He shouted, and tried to throw it, but he was pounded by Gothita and dropped it, the latter kicking the pokeball away. Shaun scurried up and ran after it.
Metapod used Harden again, whilst Mudkip and Gothita conflicted, the foremost using tackle and the latter using pound. They both injured eachother, and before Mudkip could attempt to strike again, Gothita used confusion. Mudkip tackled Metapod by accident and thought he was on Gothita's side. They both started attacking Metapod, before Shaun ran back with the pokeball. as Mudkip was distracted, He realised what he was doing. "Mud!" Shaun could only assume this was a swear word, but he shrugged and tried to open the Pokeball to throw, before realising it was jammed with mud. He swore under his breath and started wiping it off. Gothita tried to run. Mudkip chased. As Shaun looked up, he seen that they were both missing. "But I finally got the Pokeball..." murmered Shaun, looking down at the sphere in his hand. He threw it to the ground in anger.
Mudkip dashed after his rival, who was only centimetres away. He used tackle, hitting it down. They were now at a shallow river, with Donaphans trudging through it and shoals of Magikarp swimming about. Mudkip used tackle again, hitting Gothita to the very edge. He readied himself to tackle, but Gothita had one more trick up her sleeve. As he tackled, she stood. At the last second she used confusion. Mudkip jumped over her and fell into the water. He spluttered, and noticed Gothita laughing at him as he went downstream. It shouted at her, before trying to get himself up. Her laugh quickly died as he managed to climb out and run at her. As she thought she could do the same thing again, Mudkip skidded to a halt. She used the move. He rolled over and hit her in, before rolling in himself. They were in the water now. Mudkip had an advantage. he used Water gun at her, it now being even stronger. She quickly swam under, though, and went behind him, pounding him from the back. They started tussling.
Shaun arrived at the river, Metapod now back in it's ball. He looked down the stream and saw them fighting. He, without hesitation, jumped in the water and swam up. The gothita was too preoccupied to notice that Shaun had came all this way. He smirked, grabbing out an empty pokeball and throwing it. Although she was in it, she was quickly released due to the water malfunctioning the pokeball. He stood there, gawping, as the water pushed him along. After his hesitation, he grabbed the Pokeball and started rinsing it out. Mudkip used Water gun, catching Gothita unaware. He hit her onto land, before going up himself. Shaun looked up, just cleaning out the pokeball. He sighed and climbed onto land, running up the the battle at hand. Mudkip kept on using Water Gun. "Mudkip! Stop!" he commanded, being ignored. He muttered something about how he shouldn't have become a trainer, before thinking about the matter on hand. He couldn't get a clear shot at the Gothita with Mudkip blasting water at it. He sighed and waited. Today really wasn't shaping out well for him.
He eventually noticed Mudkip was being pounded. He quickly reacted, grabbing Mudkip and tossing the pokeball. Gothita simply dodged it. Shaun growled before grabbing the pokeball, making sure it didn't go in the water. By then it had been cut, covered in mud and malfunctioned, making his chances even less likely. He watched the battle at hand. Both Pokemon were very scarred, Mudkip even moreso than Gothita. Shaun sighed. He wished it upon himself yet again that he hadn't of became a Pokemon trainer, being fed up of being ignored. As he stopped daydreaming, he noticed that the battle was almost over. Gothita barely even had any energy left to pound. He rubbed the pokeball in his palm. "Come on, Arceus, grant me luck..."
He opened the Pokeball and cleaned it out. Gothita noticed that he was about to throw it. Both of them sighed at the same time. Gothita used confusion on him AGAIN. He threw the ball in the other direction before snapping out of it and realizing what he had done. "Son of a..." he murmered. He ran away to go get it. Whilst he ran, the Pokemon continued to spar. Mudkip was hit into a tree. As he was constantly getting pounded, he quickly jumped to the side, and Gothita hit the tree. Both of them were barely able to move, but they kept fighting. Mudkip was covered in scars, his fin was almost ripped off and his left eye was bleeding. The Pokemon Center would have a lot of work cleaning this up. Gothita's wounds wouldn't be noticeable to the plain eye due to the strange entitythat she is, but she certaintly was injured inside. One more blow from either of them would finish up the fight. They walked in a circle, getting ready to strike. Gothita went first, but her accuracy was still down, making her miss. Magikarp went next, but Gothita managed to avoid it. This went on.
Shaun had been looking for the Pokeball in the river for quite a while, and now had a magikarp's mouth wrapped around his head. He attempted to swear, but it came out as nothing but a muffle. He wasn't very amused, and he wasn't going to be until that Pokeball took in that Gothita. He stepped out of the river, hoping the magikarp would jump off. He waited 5 minutes before it did, and he stuck his hand in the river, quickly scowling. He had a Magikarp on his hand. As he tried to shake it off he fell into the water. Magikarp came swarming to him. His limbs and head were all covered, and he was left floating there. He sighed. Long day.
Meanwhile, Mudkip and Gothita were dodging eachother's tackles and pounds before Mudkip finally got the last hit in. Gothita was sent skidding across the muddy path, injuring her even moreso to the point of knocking her out. She had finally been defeated. Mudkip wearily walked over to her. He waited for Shaun to turn up. By about half an hour, He was fighting Gothita again. She had woken up in that time space, refreshed. Mudkip grumbled before slamming into her. His legs shook. His eyes started to shut. He had wore himself out.
At that exact moment, Shaun had finally got himself free. His head and legs had been covered in saliva and the Magikarp were constantly following him. He looked on the water bed and finally picked up the Pokeball. As he slowly clambered out, he opened the pokeball and emptied it out. It seemed to still be malfunctioning. He threw it up into the air a few times before finally wiping it's hinges clean, although getting them covered with mud and dust in the meantime. He trudged up to the battle. He threw the messy pokeball into the air to taunt Gothita, before catching it, pressing the button and tossing it. She attempted to run back but tripped over Mudkip. It bounced over him andl almost hit her. She pushed it away from both of them. Shaun ran for it, limping. He picked it up, It now being barely describable as a Pokeball with the amount of mud wrapped around it. He turned to the Gothita who could barely move. "Come on, don't make this difficult for me, you stupid Pokemon... You've already defeated all of my Pokemon and I only have one more chance to catch you." He pulled grass out of the hinges of the ball. He wiped off the button. He warmed up his throwing arm. "I promise I'll heal you first thing..." he muttered. "Please just let this work..." he said, before pulling his arm back. He tossed the ball forwards, pressing the button. It hit the Gothita and in a gleam of light the Pokeball shut itself on her, shrinking her to a size suitable for containment, before starting to bleep. It bleeped once. Shaun crossed his fingers, putting Mudkip back in it's Pokeball and dusting it off. It bleeped twice. He hooked the pokeball to it's containment section on his belt. One more beep and he had finally caught the Gothita. Otherwise he would have lost the battle, making Mudkip risk himself for nothing. He closed his eyes tight. He couldn't bear watching the effort Mudkip clearly put into it go to vain. He just couldn't bear it.
Thanks, Kayla Ann!

Re: Autumn - ready
The forum lagged. D:
The first sentences of the story set the mood quite well. With the rain coming down like a monsoon and both trainer and Pokémon miserable, trying to keep themselves dry, it tells me this story wont be so upbeat. Aside from the situation, you give us some nice description such as the sound their footsteps make against the mud. However, as for the description of the main character, it could have been spread out further. When one has so much physical description of the character within one or two sentences it detracts from other things you want to describe, such as the characters discomfort. Ill touch more about description later on in this grade.
Theres something amusing about the whole story being one battle. Normally, it would be quite boring, but Shauns constant bout of luck, from getting half-eaten by a Magikarp to practically ruining his Poké Ball with mud and water, provided some amusement. It was humorous and made me chuckle from time to time. Shauns inability to catch one small Pokémon ties in with his sour mood at the very beginning. When it came to tying in the rest of the story with the introduction you did a rather good job.
There are some things that distracted from the story. For one, we were never told why Gothita decided to attack Shaun with Confusion in the first place. Since many Pokémon are based off real animals in our world its basically a rule of thumb that Pokémon dont attack without being provoked. There are animals and Pokémon that attack simply because they can, but Gothita doesnt seem to be this type of creature. Since you mentioned at one point that it laughed at Shaun we might say that she was doing this just for the fun of it. Then again, its only a guess because the reason was never stated.
So basically, the Pokémon needs to have a reason for being there and doing what its doing in the story. Its one of the key things graders look at when trying to figure out how the Pokémon is incorporated into the story.
As I said before, the whole story is one big battle, but it begs the question as to why there was a battle in the first place. Sure Gothita attacked Shaun, but she later tried to run away without causing any more damage. Then theres the case that Shaun actually wants to catch her, and I dont exactly know why. Revenge? He thinks Gothita is a rare Pokémon? Personally, I would think a persons fist instinct when attacked in the woods is to get out as soon as possible. As the battle drags on and his Pokémon get more beat up, I would have thought he would have called it quits. It just seems hes letting his Pokémon get hurt without a real reason.
For the most part, grammar was alright, but before getting into the nitty-gritty let me just point out that having all of the storys paragraphs scrunched up together makes it hard to read without highlighting. Instead of hitting the Enter key once, do it twice so you have one full line of space between paragraphs. Remember that you should start a new a paragraph when a new person speaks or youre switching ideas.
Moving on, the grammar wasnt bad, but there were still reoccurring mistakes here and there that were distracting. First of all, make sure you proofread your story more than once. There were a handful of spelling mistakes that could have been fixed with some careful reading. When you have a short story such as this one, the mistakes seem worse then they actually are.
Second, let me clarify
is the contracted for of it is. You can only use
if youre using it in the exact manner as it is. For example:
Its/It is hot in here.
Its/It is horrible that the bridge collapsed.
is the possessive form of it. THIS is the one you should be using when youre talking about an animal or Pokémon. For example:
Its legs catapulted him right into Mudkips stomach.
Its tail wagged, and the trainer smiled.
While were on the subject of it when it came to the Pokémon you switched from calling them it to he/she. Consistency is important, so pick one pronoun and stick with it. There are certain cases when you can switch, such as when the Pokémon stops being an unknown shadow in the bushes (it) to a Pokémon they can all see (he/she.)
There was a mistake or two in there concerning dialogue tags, so take a second look at those.
When it comes to quantity, you had just enough. However, when it came to quality, it actually seemed longer than what it was, but not in a good way. The thing with having the whole story revolve around a battle is that it all seems like one big scene rather than a story with an introduction, climax, and ending. In the future I suggest you dont make your stories one big battle. There are other ways you can incorporate a humorous battle. All you need to do is have a solid plot to back it up.
I mentioned before that in the introduction the description detracted from the other things you wanted to mention, such as how Shaun felt about the rain. Description is better when you spread it out and let the reader soak it up slowly. Think of it as when your mother gives you chores to do. If she mentions all five chores at once, youre bound to forget either a chore or the instructions that came along with them. However, if she gives you a chore then five minutes later gives you the second one, youll remember them better because you have this space that separates Chore #1 and Chore #2. The same goes for description and detail. The last thing you want to do is overwhelm the reader.
As for how well you did with the description, more could have been done. While you described Shaun quite well you left the surroundings up to our imagination. Since the story centers around a battle that is moving from one place to another the surroundings should be described well enough for the reader to follow. You have the Pokémon jumping from one place to another, so details describing the river, the marsh, and so on will make the battle easier to follow.
Also, its a good rule of thumb to describe the Pokémon despite this being a Pokémon forum. Since there are upwards of 500 Pokémon now, a brief description would refresh peoples memories. There are also readers who are not familiar with some generations (Im practically a stranger to the latest generation, actually. With that in mind, I couldnt really picture Gothita as much as Mudkip. )
One last thing: what happened to the rain from the beginning? Since there isnt much description after those first sentences it seemed the rain just disappeared and did not affect the entire battle.
Well, what can I say? It was the whole story. Like I said, not always a bad thing. It had its funny moments, and the Pokémon actually moved around a lot as opposed to sticking to one small area like in the video games.
Description plays a big role in battles. For example, by the end, you mentioned both Pokémon were really hurt. This came as a surprise because throughout the whole battle you hadnt mentioned what injuries they had gotten. Description should be gradual and not only for when youre describing your characters but when youre describing your battles. It adds a touch of realism and allows the reader to be more involved in the battle.
For such a long battle there werent many moves used. You have Water Gun from Mudkip and Confusion from Gothita, but other than that it just seems like theyre tackling and slapping each other away. While Pokémon are perfectly capable of battling like this special attacks are what make each battle unique. A well-timed Solarbeam or Quick Attack can completely change the course of a battle. In URPG stories, Pokémon are not limited to only four moves or the moves they know at a certain level. With natural moves, Tms, and Hms, a Pokémon can do quite a lot. When you have a battle as long as this, some well-described special moves can turn it from dull to exciting. Im afraid that right now, the battle is somewhat tedious and long-winded.
It was borderline, but Im going to have to say,
Gothita not captured!
If you fix up the formatting and just iron out the grammar and spelling mistakes throughout Ill happily give you your Pokémon.

My experience with Dr. Steinvurzel was incredible. From the initial consultation to the operation itself. Everything including the time I'd be able to perform my normal activities was dead on. I wouldn't use anyone else. In addition to the operation going so well his staff is very professional and waiting times in office was never a problem. Kudos to you Doc for doing what most doctors don't (being a person).
I find Dr. Steinvurzel to be very knowledgeable and helpful. He will definitely go out of his way to help his patients. He spends as much time as you need to answer all the questions you might ask and does get back to by phone in a reasonable amount of time. Sometimes the wait is long to see him as emergencies do pop up so be a little understanding. Look at it this way if the wait is long that means you that means you have a wonderful dr. People wait for the best and I can tell you he is one top dr. He has operated on me twice and its been a blessing. He cares and he's good at what he does. He has done two shoulder surgeries on me and after it was over I have never felt better.
Dr S is very professional. Very glad I came to him and would recommend him to anyone.
Dr. Steinvurzel is a very knowledgeable physician - he is caring and professional. He performed my knee surgery and my follow-up visits with him were productive. The hospital where he operates, in Glen Cove, is very clean and quiet. However, the wait times at his practice are absolutely unacceptable. I have waited multiple times for over an hour and on one occasion, waited for 90 minutes and left without rescheduling. If this office cannot maintain better wait times and give patients a reasonable idea of when they are actually going to be seen, I do not see how this practice is going to continue to thrive.
My appointment was not originally with Dr. Steinvurzel but with another doctor in the practice who unbeknownst to me did not specialze in knee problems. He was kind enough to offer me an opportunity to see Dr. Steinvurzel right on the spot! He was so nice! He look at an MRI that I had brought with me and then we worked on a plan. He was honest and straightforward with me. I am so glad to have found Dr. Steinvurzel!
He performed rotator cuff surgery at North Shore Glen Cove. I highly recommend the ambulatory surgery at this hospital. This doctor took the time to fully explain my surgery with drawings preop. Post op he went to the surgical waiting area to speak to my wife. She was told he is the only surgeon that extends this courtesy. He also gave me a call at home the next day to see how I was doing. Excellent!

Rochester, N.Y. - The U.S. Attorney's Office is now looking for a second man in connection with a video of a rape posted on Facebook.
U.S. Attorney William Hochul is asking the public's help to locate Jordon McCloud.
According to court paperwork, McCloud is named by the victim as the person recording the rape of a 14-year-old girl on a cellphone.
Shahmell Robinson, 21, of Rochester was arrested by the Greece Police Department on August 15th. He's charged with rape in the 1st degree for engaging in sexual intercourse with someone incapable of consent by reason of being physically helpless, he's also charged with rape in the 2nd degree for engaging in sexual intercourse with an individual under the age of 15.
Court documents say the victim didn't know she was raped until she saw the video.
Robinson is facing federal charges of producing child pornography and conspiring with others to produce child pornography. Both of those charges carry a mandatory minimum penalty of 15 years in prison, a maximum of 30 years, a fine of $250,000 or both.
It happened at a house in Greece on August 8, 2014.
The video came to the attention of law enforcement when another individual posted it on Facebook.
"If anybody else transmitted the rape that was posted after it was already posted is also potentially chargeable," explained U.S. Attorney William Hochul. "As a federal criminal defendant, and certainly anybody that had anything to do with the actual rape itself is also subject to federal law which is what Mr. Robinson has been charged with."
Robinson remains in custody.
He's scheduled to be in Greece Town Court Thursday morning.

Arab News has This Story that says One of the most neglected facilities in Saudi Schools is the school library. Good libraries play a pivotal role in education and should consequently be considered indispensable in every school.
To encourage students to use the library at some schools, at the end of the school year is a gift given to the student who borrowed the most books and there is an intellectual competition.

You know about Pavlov, one Russian psychologist, who in the beginning of this century proved the law of association - which is his great contribution. In Russia you will not hear the name of Freud, Adler or Jung - only Pavlov. He has developed a totally different psychology - Pavlovian psychology. And because it fits with communism, they have rejected all other psychologies; there is only one psychology, and that is Pavlovian. It is not a complete picture of the human psyche, but this law is certainly true.
He used to give his dog.all his experiments were with dogs.he had seventy dogs. Even after the revolution when private property was dissolved, the communist government allowed him to have private property - because how could he manage his seventy dogs and a big lab with strange kinds of instruments? But his psychology was proving in some way that communism should be allowed. He was the only man in the Soviet Union who was allowed to remain exactly the same way as before the revolution.
He would feed the dog, and while the dog was eating he would go on ringing a bell. Now, a bell has nothing to do with food; you can ring a bell before any dog and he will not take any interest. He will think that you are a little crackpot: "What are you doing ringing a bell before a dog? What is the point?" He may even turn away just to avoid listening to your ringing bell.
But you could not have expected what happened to Pavlov's dogs. After fifteen days of feeding the dog and at the same time ringing the bell, on the sixteenth day there was no food, just the ringing of the bell - and the dog was ready for food, his tongue hanging out. And this was done with not one dog but seventy dogs. He was a scientist: one dog cannot prove anything, you need to have enough evidence - seventy dogs. As the bell was ringing, their saliva was dripping, their tongues were hanging out. Nobody could believe that with the ringing of a bell this could happen. This he called the law of association.
While he was eating, the dog was also listening to the ringing of the bell. The eating of the food and the listening to the bell became associated in his mind. They became locked, so much so that not only when you rang the bell was the dog ready for food - although there was no food - but he was perfectly ready to eat. And vice versa: when the food was there, he was waiting for the bell to ring and he would not eat.
That was a surprise to Pavlov himself. He was thinking that the first thing was okay - that the bell became associated with food. But food is associated with hunger and biology.. The dog would look at him as if to say, "What are you doing? Ring the bell!" - because it had become locked. Without the ringing of the bell, the dog would not feel that the food was juicy. It became a kind of music that helped him to taste the food better - and not one dog but seventy dogs were behaving in the same way.
So always remember this law. When you are entering inwards, don't get associated with anything that can become a hindrance.

Cornish Icon
The Native Oyster is an iconic part of Cornish culture with its epicentre in the historic harbour town of Falmouth.
What could be more relevant to Falmouth than a beautiful and striking embodiment of the Native Oyster. Good art tells a story and this proposed sculpture brings with it tales of historical culture, local economy, sustainability and initiates new stories in accompanying education projects all about the Native Oyster.
As well as an educational and cultural centrepiece, the sculpture could join the ranks of internationally recognised public art, bringing visitors from all over the world, boosting tourism, business and awareness of the unique fishery in Falmouth.
Funded by monies earmarked for Public Art projects, the sculpture will be something for, and of, the native oyster fishery and surrounding community.
The Oysters shown on this page were given to The Artist by a Fal Oyster Fisherman, as inspiration for the sculpture form.

ESV Gospel Transformation Bible (Hardcover, White)
ESV Gospel Transformation Bible from Crossway on Vimeo.
Free Downloadable Resources
Publisher's Description
The apostle Paul summed up his whole ministry as existing "to testify to the gospel of the grace of God" (Acts 20:24). That single-minded goal is the heartbeat of the ESV Gospel Transformation Bible. Produced out of the conviction that the Bible is a unified message of God's grace culminating in Jesus, it is a significant new tool to help readers see Christ in all the Bible, and grace for all of life.
The Gospel Transformation Bible features all-new book introductions and gospel-illuminating notes written by a team of over 50 outstanding pastors and scholars. This specially prepared material outlines passage-by-passage God's redemptive purposes of grace that echo all through Scripture and culminate in Christ. The notes not only explain but also apply the text in a grace-centered way. Focusing on heart transformation rather than mere behavior modification, their points of application emphasize the Hows and Whys of practical application to daily living—in short, how the gospel transforms us from the inside out.
Every print edition comes with free access to the Online Gospel Transformation Bible, hosted at ESVBible.org.
The Gospel Transformation Bible will equip both new and seasoned believers with a gospel-centered reading of Scripture, enabling God's people to see that the message of the Bible is a unified one—"to testify to the gospel of the grace of God."

A dispute between neighbors over loud music led to one being jailed for an alleged ax attack Saturday in northwest Spokane.
Brian M. Drake, 40, is accused of hitting Christopher A. Malcom with an ax handle after Maclom told him to turn him music down at their apartment complex at 421 W. Montgomery Ave. and said he would be calling the police.
Malcom told officers that Drake called him names and said "Payback's a b**ch" before swinging the ax at him, handle first, according to court documents.
Malcom reported injuries to his right arm and leg. Police said Drake was "highly intoxicated."
Drake, who does not appear to have a criminal record in Washington state, was booked into jail for second-degree assault.
CLEVELAND (AP) — An Ohio drunken-driving suspect is blaming his arrest on Ozzy Osbourne.
William Liston was arrested Christmas Eve in suburban Cleveland. WJW-TV says he told police officers, "Ozzy Osbourne and his music made me do it."
Osbourne's hits as lead singer of heavy metal band Black Sabbath and as a solo artist include "Paranoid" and "Road to Nowhere."
Liston is awaiting arraignment. He's to appear in court Tuesday on a charge of operating a vehicle while impaired.
In an unrelated case, Liston pleaded not guilty Thursday in Cuyahoga (ky-uh-HOH'-guh) County Common Pleas Court in a November break-in at a medical office. He was released on bond.
Telephone calls to the 33-year-old Liston's home in Aurora have gone unanswered.

250 Tasting Notes
When I drink peppermint, I like to feel like I just got punched in the face by a mint plant.
This does the trick.
Flavors: Menthol, Peppermint
I've had this twice so far. The first time I did it gong fu style and the peach flavor stayed nice and strong steep after steep. The second time I did it Western style and the flavor was pretty much done after the first steep. Good to know! You really couldn't taste any oolong, just peach. Won't be buying this because I seem myself quickly drifting away from flavored tea…
Flavors: Peach
A beautiful woman awakes from slumber
Slowly rubbing her eyes she looks up
She smiled, stretched out her legs and thought
Starting over again is enough
I kept this tea overnight and drank it again this morning. Still good!
August TTB
Steam rises fragrant
I sip a full cup of joy
Warm hug down my throat
(inspired by shreapops tea haikus! :)
Honestly I don't have much to say about this tea. I actually thought it smelled really good, and I think it's my favorite puerh so far. I wish I could elaborate on specific flavors and "notes" but my palate is not very sophisticated :P
Flavors: Sweet
(Future) August TTB
Getting a headstart on some of these tasting notes because I have so many to write. This is my first time trying Verdant Tea. Yay! Question: is this tea roasted? The wet leaf smelled burnt. I didn't care much for the roasted flavor, but it did have a nice floral taste to it as well. It had a bit of a bitter aftertaste as well, but I'm starting to think my pot was to small for that generous sized sample and I over-leafed. What a shame!
Flavors: Flowers, Smoke
I'm going to have to be extra vigilant to get into this box. With my luck, you'll have sign ups while I'm busy and I'll miss it.
It's not going to be COMPLETELY based on who comments first. I'm also going to take "swap cred" and Steepster activity levels into consideration so you should have a good chance.

CLARINGTON -- Lights, camera, bureaucracy.
The filmmaking process and the wheels of local government have clashed in a dispute between an Orono landowner and the municipality.
When Elva Reid allowed film company Haunted Peaks Inc. to use her property for its new film, she thought she had her bases covered. She spoke with government departments and vetted the company before letting it film on her land. With world-famous director Guillermo del Toro attached to the project, Ms. Reid thought it would be a good thing for the community.
Instead she's been involved in a six-week conflict with the municipality because of the filming.
"At the end of my druthers at this point," said Ms. Reid.
In late April, after filming had ended, she received a letter from the municipality stating she had contravened the fill bylaw. At issue was a red clay powder put on the property during filming. Ms. Reid said it was the same kind used on baseball fields but the municipality wanted it removed following a neighbour's complaints.
Yet Ms. Reid claims the notice only said she'd violated the bylaw and not what she had to remove.
"I'm told to remove it but I'm not told what it is," said Ms. Reid.
That began a six-week period where Ms. Reid claims to have sent letters and phoned several municipal employees and departments about the matter, without receiving any official notice of what the issue was. This led to her making a presentation to Clarington council on June 2.
"I wanted them to tell me what I had to remove or apologize to me," said Ms. Reid.
She did receive an apology at that meeting but not about the notice.
Councillor Wendy Partner apologized for having gone onto Ms. Reid's property without permission in late April to take photos of the film set erected there. She added she had apologized previously but did so again.
"I spoke to you and apologized for having gone onto your property without your permission. I acted in the way that I did because I was unaware of my authority as an elected official in the circumstances," said Coun. Partner, who added she felt she was doing the right thing after hearing concerns of local residents.
"In hindsight you're right, I should have asked for your permission and any photos I took I did destroy."
Ms. Reid said she hadn't received an apology before the meeting and, since the film set was closed, distributing pictures of it could harm the production.
"I don't think any councillor has the right to go on my property or even through my house," said Ms. Reid, who was frustrated at the confusion and slow response she thinks she received. "A person complained about the film company and they got an immediate response."
Following the council meeting, Ms. Reid received a letter stating the file on the matter had been closed but it left her with concerns her property would have a history or be red-flagged for any future buyers.
Len Creamer, manager of Municipal Law Enforcement in Clarington, confirmed Ms. Reid's file had been closed but disputed her claims she'd not been informed of what had to be removed.
"She was informed in two separate meetings with staff," said Mr. Creamer. "She called our office and the investigating officer explained what it was about."
Mr. Creamer also said the matter was resolved because the powder had been removed from the property.
According to Franklin Wu, Clarington's chief administrative officer, no red flag would appear on the property's history.
"Bylaw charges do not go on property records," said Mr. Wu. "As long as there are no orders to comply, the file is closed.
"We just don't go around putting things willy nilly against a title of property."
According to Mayor Adrian Foster, the dispute is a good reason the municipality is looking into a filming policy for Clarington.
"It hasn't been a huge issue so far but it'll be a good thing going forward," said Mayor Foster.
He said cities such as Toronto already have such policies, clearly outlining what is expected from all parties involved in productions, and suggested Clarington can borrow from those.
"We can change it as it makes sense for us."

Having a difficult time with my Practicum Experience:
- 0Feb 8, '13 by mistymae22I feel awful. Practicum experience is suppose to be one of the best learning experiences in nursing school. I am working on the postpartum unit, and it was my number one choice. I thought for sure that I would love it; however, ever since week 1, I have just been clashing with most of the nurses on that unit. I found a lot of them seem to be either lazy, clueless, or both. I was assigned to a preceptor, and I constantly asked her what I could do to help. I always consistently checked on the patients and was willing to help her out and the other nurses out as well! Well, she went to the manager at the end of my first week and told the manager that "I wasn't interested in what she was doing....." When I worked with her, she was so lazy, sitting at her computer the whole time and kept talking about her pregnancy. She barely checked on her patients...all she did was complain about her nausea feeling and how it will be like 9 months from now..... Anyways, I got really upset but the manager did change my preceptor.
Now my new preceptor is much better at teaching me and is more pro-active than the other preceptor; however, I feel like she thinks i'm a dummy because I forgot how to do some nursing skills, since I didn't work in the hospital for about six months. And it's been a year since I was in OB clinicals. I don't trust that she would give me a fair and accurate evaluation report. I was suppose to work with her this week, but she had another job to do on the unit, and she wasn't assigned to patients that day; therefore, she could not precept me that day. The manager told me not to show up even because she had no one to work with me. Basically, in nice words, "no one who is working that day will wanna work with you...."
I only know one nurse on this unit who likes working with me and likes to teach me. She lets me do most of the skills and I learned from her in one day more than I have the past 5 weeks I was on that unit. Unfortunately, she can't be my new or secondary preceptor because she's a new nurse
I basically feel alone and unsupported at all. I've tried talking to my school instructors about this, but they don't say or do anything about it.... I've tried talking to my friends about it, but they don't understand because they have awesome working relationships with their preceptors. I tried talking to my parents, but they just blame me and think i'm just bugging the nurses and that's why they don't want to work with me.....This is one of the worst experiences in nursing school...and I do not know what to do.....
Luckily, I'm half way done with my practicum....but it has been stressing me out, when it's suppose to be a learning experience for me..... Any tips or ideas on how to deal with this practicum misery????
- 2Feb 8, '13 by mariebailey, MSN, RNYou think they are lazy and clueless? Try, try, try to see the positive in people, and maybe they will, in turn, see the positive in you. I think your parents are right. I hate to break it to you, but your interpersonal skills are more important than your nursing skills. These nurses owe you nothing. You need to learn from them, so you have to open them up to teaching you again. You better start bringing doughnuts or muffins ASAP. Smile and be gracious and thankful, and do it with sincerity...for the rest of your practicum.
- 1Feb 8, '13 by mistymae22When a patient was complaining of shortness of breath, they didn't know what to do and were running around the unit disorganized, like they weren't trained or experienced. So yah, they looked clueless at the moment. I don't owe them anything either! Definitely not doughnuts or muffins.... I didn't do or say anything to them, so I don't even know how I closed them off to teaching me. All my former preceptor did was sat on her butt and did nothing, so that's my fault? Um, ok....
I've worked on other units, and they do not treat me like that. They know what to do in emergencies, are calm, and go out of their way to teach students. So I know this is just not a "me" issue. Your comment was a bit uncalled for.
Btw, yes, interpersonal skills are crucial in nursing. However, when a patient is is de-sating or complaining of shortness of breath, bringing doughnuts or muffins isn't going to save the person's life... Nursing skills are more essential in this case...don't you think?Last edit by mistymae22 on Feb 9, '13
- 1Feb 9, '13 by mariebailey, MSN, RNThe doughnuts & muffins are optional, but learning what you need to be a competent nurse is not. What you've been doing thus far clearly has not been working. You will have to re-frame your thinking & change your attitude for your practicum to be successful if your school isn't willing to place you elsewhere. Maybe someone else will chime in with better advice; I'll cross my fingers for you.
- 1What I've been doing isn't working?? Well, maybe I will just sit around and not do any work, and not ask any questions....maybe that will make me a part of the team (:
- 0Maybe how I said things sounded like an attack on all nurses. I'm just reporting my experiences and what I saw on my unit. Like I said, I've worked on other units where the nurses do such outstanding work and they let me in their team! Such amazing teamwork on those units. Not all the nurses on my unit are clueless, a lot of them are smart and check in on their patients consistently. However, some of them, including my first preceptor, are lazy...and that is fact! I guess I'm just not into their speciality, and that could be why I clash with the unit in general. But I never go to clinical with an attitude that they owe me anything. I always go to the unit with a respectful attitude, and I always offer help to all the nurses. I will bring them treats on my last day of clinical....but as of now, all I can do is offer help, smile, and try to work with them. That's what I 've been doing, you are telling me it doesn't work...then I honestly have no idea what to do other than do the complete opposite...which I won't do because that behavior is just unprofessional!
- 0Feb 9, '13 by mariebailey, MSN, RNmistymae22: I'm just trying to be honest with you. I hope it gets better.
- 0Well, you can't say it's all my fault 100% without even being there and seeing it yourself. I appreciate your honesty, but you blaming me 100% is uncalled for. Maybe I come across as a know it all student and that can be a turn off, but I always try my best to be respectful and I try to help them out. You make it sound like I go to clinical with a disrespectful attitude, when you haven't seen me in the clinical setting. And that isn't fair...
- 0mariebailey: You are right when you said that nurses don't owe students anything; however, these nursing students are going to be the future's nurses someday. You would think they want to build up good nurses for the future...
- 2Feb 9, '13 by HH_RN13I think it's important in your situation to take pp advice and try to make nice with the nurses. In the beginning of my preceptorship I felt my nurse wasn't really into teaching, but I just followed her around while staying open minded and trying to absorb every piece of information I could from my nurse as well as others on the unit. I realized that what could be perceived as laziness in the beginning is not laziness at all. Experienced nurses just get comfortable at what they do. They don't freak out over something that I would have perceived as emergency. I've learned that just staying positive and nice to every one around opens up way more doors than blaming a person for one eventless shift :-) as I was moving forward with my rotation other nurses have started calling me to see interesting cases they had. My nurse was always supportive and tried to allow me to really experience what it's like to be a real nurse. I realized that what I thought was laziness in the beginning was really her way of teaching me to be independent and to come up with my own ways to manage my day and patient care. Just keep in mind that every person has a different teaching style. Just keep an open mind and try to learn as much as you can :-) good luck!!!

Shortcut keys are insanely useful. You have no idea how many lives they safe everyday. They help you stay concentrated, save time and be more productive. Furthermore, using them makes you look like a Geek
You try to find shortcuts for getting successful; you look for an easier way to earn money, you wander here and there for get-rich-quickly schemes. But why not learn some shortcut keys that actually work and are worth looking for.They will rescue you from many headaches, trust me. Here are some of those useful shortcut keys that I personally use.
You first press Ctrl+Alt+Delete which takes you to the logon screen and then you open Task Manager from there, right? Why waste time by going through 3 steps when you can do it in one. Just press Ctrl+Shift+Escape.
We make a lot of folders, right? But for that, you don't need to use your mouse anymore. Just press these 3 keys Ctrl+Shift+N and get your new folder.
Suppose you have couple of minimized windows and you want to restore any one of them. You can do that by pressing Alt+Tab, keep pressing Tab Button for moving from one window to another.
Do you know? Whenever you delete files and send them to the Recycle Bin, they still occupy some space. To delete files permanently, you need to use Shift+Delete.
Sometimes, you need to see the desktop and you minimize couple of windows to get there. You can all avoid all that work by simply pressing Win+D, pressing it again will bring you back to the previous opened window.
Suppose you feel thirsty and you need to get out of the room for water. While you are also afraid that someone may take a look at your work and mess with it. You can simply kill that fear by pressing Win+L. It will lock your computer and will ask for password for re-login. Make sure that you have set a password on your account.
Time comes when you want to select everything in a folder. You can do that by pressing Ctrl+A. It will select all files and folders. This shortcut can be used to select all the text when you are writing something in Notepad, WordPress or MS Word etc.
You want to select the last file or folder? Why do so much scrolling down when you can do it with one Key? Just press END button and it will take you there. For doing the opposite, you may press the HOME button and you will see the move to the first element.
To open certain Programs & Utilities, you may use their Short Names.Just open Start, type their short names and hit Enter. You can open Start by pressing Window key which is located beside the left Alt key. Following are the shortnames for some Progams & Tools.
|Short Names
|Registry Editor
|On-Screen Keyboard
|Command Prompt
|MS Word
They are not finished yet, there are many more
All these shortcut keys are quiet helpful and they are widely used. They save lot of my time and they will do the same for you. Go ahead, play with them and also don't forget to SHARE this post with other people.
7 Possible Reasons behind a Slow Computer
Image Credits goes to Guardaarquivos
We all use computers and we use it for different purposes. A day comes when our computer starts taking more time than it usually does.There can be various reasons behind it.
I just feel sad when I see people wasting their hard earned money on little tune ups when they can do it all by themselves. If you are reading this right now, I want you to read till the end. So that you can prevent your friends from wasting their money.
Following are some common reasons why your computer runs slow.
All of us are guilty of committing this mistake. We keep softwares that we don't even use. These softwares keep draining your computer's resources because they are always running in the background. So you better delete them if you don't need them.
Windows uses some space to store Log files, Temporary files and Error reports on your computer. Make sure that there is at least 5 Gb free space available in the drive where Windows is installed. Otherwise, your computer will will get slowed down and won't work properly.
You can analyze how your hard disk has been used and which folder is occupying how much space. To do this, install this simple and free tool called WinDirStat.
Here is the Download Link and Screenshot.
With a passage of time, processor's efficiency drops down. It stops working the way it was supposed to work. It shows 100% CPU usage even when you are doing nothing. The end result is , slow speed and increased temperature. You can do nothing about it other than changing your Processor.You can check the CPU usage by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Escape and clicking on the Performance tab.
Running too many programs simultaneously also results in slow speed.You can check how many programs are running and how much RAM the individual program is using.Just press Ctrl+Shift+Escape, click on Processes tab and there you are.To close any program, just click on the End Process button.
There are some programs that run automatically when you start your computer.You can check them by going to Start>All Programs>Startup and can remove them from the Startup.It's better to keep your startup folder empty.
What is Registry? It is like a database where Windows stores its configuration info.It tells computer how to work and how not to.Registry related errors and issues make your computer run like a snail.
You can fix all the Registry issues using this free tool called CCleaner.CCleaner is not only a Registry Cleaner , it also does following things:
Here is the Download link and screenshot of CCleaner.
Your computer might be victim of viruses and malwares. It usually happens when you plug in any infected USB or download softwares from Un-Authorized Sites. To cope with this issue, you should install any Antivirus and keep it updated.
Accoding to PcMag, following are some great Antiviruses.
Just install any free AntiVirus and you will do fine. Antiviruses are not worth spending money unless you are some big enterprise with a lot of competitors and enemies
As you just read, there can be various factors behind a slow computer. You just need to find the exact reason and rest of the job is easy.Share this post with your friends and prevent them from wasting their money.
In start, we all take blogging as a piece of cake. After some time the result is obvious, we came up disappointed , demotivated , annoyed and tired of Blogging. But before you quit, I want you to take a look at following good things about Blogging. Sure it takes one heck a lot of effort, work, patience, devotion and motivation to get your hands over them. But knowing these things about Blogging will certainly help you stay motivated. Share this post with your friends and they will always remember you in prayers
When you blog, you don't follow any instructions. It is just you and your blog, you can do whatever you want, however you want and whenever you want. You are the boss of your own.
Your blog is not just a website with one URL Address. It is one heck a lot of things. It is your home on Internet, it is your diary, it is your novel, it is your business etc.
You write in your own style when you blog.I assure that no English Professor will come and scold you.Blogging is not like writing an application or writing a cover letter for a job.You bring your own writing style into your Blog.
Suppose you have written an article.Now you can invent your own way of presenting it.You are free to use Bold, Underline, Italics texts or Headings, Images, Alignments etc.
You don't need to pay any publisher for getting your article published.You don't need to pay commission for selling your products.You can freely advertise anything or run any promotional campaign on your blog.
Write an article, hit publish and you have sent it to the whole World.Now anyone from any part of the world can access it.You don't need to pay any media channel or newspaper for that.
You get to know the people who have same interest as yours. They may contact you for any question,help or maybe offer you a job by judging your capabilities from your Blog.
It's fun when people contact you after reading your Blog or leave comments on your Articles.You share you knowledge with them and they return you the favor with their friendship.
Blogging provides you with a platform to speak your World.You can share your thoughts, knowledge, experience, feelings etc with the World.Nobody is gonna stop you.
I always say this to my readers "Blogging is not a sprint race; it is marathon". So you need to stay consistent and motivated.Success does not come overnight, it takes time.Of course this post is incomplete without your participation.Feel free to drop a comment and share what you love about Blogging
Image Credits goes to Darkbly
Do you know Muhammad Ali? He was known as the Greatest Person ever lived on this Planet.He Boxed for about 22 Years and was the first Heavyweight Boxer to become 3 times World Champion. He was quite successful throughout his life and was the most famous Athlete at his time.
His life is full of Wisdom and Lessons that everyone Should learn to be successful in his Life.While in this Blog Post, we will talk from the Blogging Perspective Only.So let's have a look on his Quotes and see what they teach us about Blogging.
Blogging is not like a sprint Race; it is Marathon. You can not expect instant results from your Blog.It takes months for your Blog to start showing some Results.I assure you that Blogging is not a difficult Job , it is just Time-Taking Job.
You should set small Goals for every day.Setting small goals and achieving them gives you a Boost and help you stay Motivated.Achieving those goals make you feel like you are making progress.
Blogging is all about doing experiments and taking challenges.You need to write with confidence and have self believe.If you don't believe in yourself then how your Readers will? Always stay positive,you will get the positive results and same goes for vice versa.
How to stay Motivated as a Blogger?
Learning Process never stops , it goes from a Cradle to the Grave. Blogging is an ultimate learning process.You learn from your mistakes and experiments.You get wisdom by reading other people's Blog and the comments you receive from your readers etc.Your way of thinking keeps changing and you keep bringing new ideas into Blogging.
You are never too young and you are never too old to Blog.It is all about your Knowledge,Experience and the way you Convey them to your Readers.Age has nothing to do with Blogging or any other aspect of life.If you think you are getting Old then don't worry, because everybody is.
Being imaginative is very important in Blogging.You think from the Readers Perspective when you are writing and you try to generate new ideas for your Blog Posts.If you are not imaginative , then there is very less difference between You and a Tree.
Let me ask you a question.Why you made a Blog? To convey information? While information was already there on Internet and your Blog does not make any difference to it.So why you made a Blog?
Actually the purpose of your Blog should be to help your Readers.You should try to Blog like your Readers are very lazy and you should try hard to make their life easier.That's what they want from your Blog and if you do that, they will keep returning to your Blog.
Spoon Feed your Readers so that they can't help themselves from Subscribing to your Blog.
How to write an Awesome Post for Your Readers?
So those were some Muhammad Ali's Quotes.He was known of his Self-Confidence and ability to learn new things.He is my idol, I learned a lot of things from Him.You should learn too.It will really help you a lot in your Life.
Tell me what you think about above Quotes and don't forget to share this post with your Friends.
A time comes especially in the beginning of your Blogging Journey when you don't get any Comment and Traffic on your Blog.These two factors are really discouraging for Bloggers and many of them soon lose hope cause of them.It is very hard and necessary to stay consistent, interested and regular in Blogging.For all these things, you need Motivation.
So I made an Infographics for you guys, composed of some Awesome Quotes from some Awsome Bloggers.
