They say that with such shared interests and such a deep sense of trust and honest communication, lying and cheating is never an issue. The misconceptions that nonswingers have about what it is like to be in the lifestyle was something that many couples at the resort were eager to talk about. The Morales also said that, despite what many might think, sex is not the first thing on their minds when they meet a new couple.
"No, no, no, we're not wired that way," said Joleen Morales. "Once or twice, I mean, I have."
Tony, her husband, continued: "This isn't just about sex. And those folks out there in the lifestyle, I think that they tend to immediately think that it's all about sex and that it's drunk Roman orgies all night."
But those types of nights aren't unheard of.
"I'm not saying that it doesn't happen," Joleen said.
Tony agreed.
"Those things do happen," he said. "But that's not necessarily the taste for every member in our society."
But despite the "Roman orgy" scenes taking place, the raging, wild abandon of the glowing couples never disrupted the mellow mood at the resort.
And how about the employees at a place like this?
A Mexican bartender at Desire, who preferred not to be named for this report, said that he and the other workers were very nervous about the grand opening and about what to expect. He explained that Mexican culture is inherently conservative and Catholic, so he said he was not alone in anxiously wondering what it would be like to pour drinks for naked people.
He said, however, that the feeling quickly fell away, and that within only three hours of the opening, he and his colleagues were used to the nudity.
"The sex becomes normal," he said. "It's just sex after all."
Silvina Modolo, a nonswinger who runs promotions for Desire at its sister resort in Cancun, told us that clients at Desire are happier and more easygoing than clients at nonswinger resorts.
"When I first started working here, I wasn't familiar with the nudism. It was a little shocking, but after about a month, guests were so friendly, openminded, and that made it easier to work around nudism and the lifestyle," she said.
But she said that frisky guests do occasionally proposition her to join in their fun.
"Yes, at the hotel in Cancun, and here at Los Cabos in the last two days. They try to see if I'll crack or break, but they expect that it's a policy, like any workplace -- that you don't get involved with clients."
And that's true -- there is a policy. The rule at the top of the list in the Desire Resort brochure is an emphatic: "No means No."
Most of the couples at the resort readily acknowledged that it is one rule that must be honored for the sake of a happy vacation.
McGinley, the "King of Swing," said he is not some kind of evangelist and that he is not trying to recruit the rest of us into his lifestyle. He just wants to be there for the people interested.
"Nothing is best for everybody," McGinley said. But those people that want it will be attracted to what we do, because of the way we promote, the way we advertise, just like Coca-Cola advertises." At 72, Robert thinks about his legacy as one of the founders of the modern swing movement.

I am sorry that this is piggy backing on the other post, but I thought I would throw family in there, too.
The majority of our friends are very supportive, which is great! Not sure how I could have pulled through this without them!
As for our family, they are luke-warm, at best. My husband's side (lives on the other side of the country) has flat out mentioned their uncomfortableness with the "race thing" (adopting from Ethiopia). Enough said, I guess. I sent long emails explaining positives, but no response. On my side (lives in our state) they say they are on board, but will NEVER talk about it, and when I mention it, they squirm, maybe say a short response, then change the subject. I have decided to not bring it up anymore and they don't either. It was too painful to get the negative feedback, so just rather not.
It has been very heart breaking and honestly, almost toxic. We wonder... do they not think we are good parents now? Are they secretly racist? Will they love this child? We have tried to explain our desires to adopt from ET and why it is a great country to do that with, and how we are prepared to handle a multi racial family (in case this stems from fear of the unknown), but they either have no response, or LOVE to share adoption horror stories.
Anyhow, It has made this adoption so much harder than it has to. We waited ages to have our son and then I lost my ablity to consive after him. It is not like this has been a great journey for us, so the support would be welcomed. I envy those blogs that I read with the pictures of happy families behind them throwing them showers. I wonder if we are unique in that we are getting no family support?
Thanks for letting me vent, if anything. ;) Jen (JP)

The sudden drop in temperature here leaves no doubt, winter truly is just around the corner! And as the weather changes and the last traces of any tan you had fades into oblivion, you may want to consider updating the contents of your makeup bag for the season.
Comfort is key when the weather gets colder, so it is always a good idea to have a moisturizer that you can apply to hands, elbows or even your face when you really need some moisture. Coconut oil is a great choice, you can easily transfer some from a larger container into a small jar, and because it is solid at room temperature, you don't need to worry about leaks or spills.
To add a little color back to your face, carry a bronzer that is slightly darker than your natural skintone and a blush with a rosier tone. Satin Matte Blush in Antique Rose, Honey Rose and Desert Rose are great options, as are Bronzers like Maricaibo, Mauna Loa and Trinidad.
When the skies are dull, add a bit more brightness to your look with a Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow with not-so-subtle sparkle. Buttercream, Venus, Paris or Leone are easy to sweep all over the eye area and look great with or without a contour color.
Finally, switch from a drying lipstick to our moisturizing Organic Nourishing Lip Balm. Cranberry gives lipstick-like coverage, but provides anti-oxidants and moisture at the same time.
I recently used up an entire Alima Pure eyeshadow. If you own any of our shadows, you know that this is not all that easy to do! The shadows last a long time, to say the least. But Gazelle Luminous Shimmer Shadow has overtaken all other shadows as my "go-to." When you wear an eyeshadow daily, it does eventually run out!
What is it about Gazelle that makes it so perfect? Well, for me at least, everything! The shade, a soft beige that is not too far from my natural skin tone (Beige 2). But what makes it really special is the shimmer. It's not sparkly like some of the other Luminous Shimmer Shadows, but it is not pearly like a Pearluster. It is just the right amount of shimmer to brighten up my eye area without looking inappropriate for my age.
If your skin is more of a neutral or cool, and maybe slightly deeper, Chai Luminous Shimmer Shadow may end up being the "go-to" shade for you. I just used it on a Neutral 5 today, and the effect was similar to Gazelle on my skin, and it was beautiful! If you have darker skin, Palomino Luminous Shimmer Shadow would fit the bill for you.
And here's a little good news, if you happen to be looking for an entire set that is perfect for every day, our Simply Perfect Collection is available on the website for a limited time only. It contains my favorite Gazelle, but also Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow in Tigereye and Satin Matte Blush in Pink. It is a great set for daily wear or as a gift to introduce someone to the wonders of Alima Pure mineral cosmetics!
Do you think loose mineral foundation is messy? A lot of people think so, but if you take advantage of a few tips and tools, it needn't be any messier than a pressed product!
The key to keeping mess down is to work product into the bristles of your brush before you bring your brush to your face. With products like blush and eyeshadows, this can easily be accomplished by keeping the product in the jar, picking some up from the sifter-top and then using the lid to tap or swirl the brush in the lid to get the product from the tips of the brush to the bristles. When it is worked up into the bristles, product doesn't fall off the brush, either onto your face or your counter-top.
But sometimes the jar lid isn't roomy enough to swirl or otherwise work product into the brush and in those cases, a small bowl can come in very handy.
Pictured clockwise above, from upper left are: a hand-made bowl (by a special beginning ceramics student) and three sauce dishes from import stores, including one made of bamboo.
To use a bowl, tap a bit of foundation directly into the dish and then pick up that small amount with your brush and tap or swirl the brush in the bowl to work that product into the bristles. Once it is all worked into the brush, bring the brush up to your face. If more foundation is needed, tap a bit more directly into the bowl. The larger area and higher sides of the bowl will help keep your countertops clean.
The two smaller "bowls" in the picture above are chopstick holders. These are perfect for mixing eyeliner or eyeshadow with water! Use a small spatula or even your liner brush to scoop some of the shadow or liner into the bowl, then drip a few drops of water into the "bowl." Mix them together, adding more shadow or water as needed to get your desired consistency. Be sure to discard any product that remains after using your products wet.
If you've been bothered by messiness with your loose minerals, try a little bowl, we think you'll be pleased with the results!
Sara is more than just one of the longest-term Alima Pure employees, you could really call her the Alima Pure muse! Back when Sara was approaching the age when her mom had promised she could begin wearing makeup, mom began to have some concerns about what Sara would be putting on her young, beautiful skin. That's what prompted Kate O'Brien to create Alima Pure!
When we needed a photo for a blog post we did on Alicia Silverstone's blog, The Kind Life, we recruited Sara to model for us. We asked her to pick out her five favorite products to take for the photo shoot, and the results can be seen above. Sara is wearing Satin Matte Foundation in Warm 1, Satin Matte Blush in Pink, Pearluster Eyeshadow in Silk, Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow in Tigereye and our Organic Nourishing Lipbalm in Rhubarb. The result is soft, gorgeous and so easy to apply!
Several years ago, when Alima Pure created our Color Balancing Powders, I have to confess, I was worried. As someone who has an excess of redness in the cheek area, I had tried green "correcting" products many times in the past. The problem with each and every one I tried was that instead of ending up looking red, I ended up looking green...not a real improvement, in my opinion! Kate was still formulating all of the colors at that time, and she took my fears to heart. She ended up with our Pistachio, which is green, but not glaringly so. Softened by beige, this little gem tones down redness without leaving a hint of green to show through your foundation. Most people who use Pistachio find that they need to use considerably less foundation than they otherwise would.
To illustrate how amazing it can be, we photographed Alyssa, the beautiful sister of our amazing photographer, Kara. Alyssa swears by Pistachio, and graciously allowed us to photograph her with a bare face. On the left, Alyssa with nothing on her face. On the right, Alyssa with ONLY Pistachio. Amazing, isn't it?
Because she was such a great sport, we finished Alyssa's look, applying her foundation in Neutral 2, Luminous Shimmer Blush in Freja, Pearluster shadows in Cassis and Amethyst, and Organic Nourishing Lip Balm in Rhubarb. Radiant!
Kick off summer with a handy kit of summer essentials that will tuck right into your favorite beach bag!
Available in two different color choices (Light-Medium and Medium-Deep), each set features a full-sized Bronzer, two full-sized Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow and an adorable Petite Kabuki Brush. In each set, one shadow is a return appearance of a popular Limited Edition Shadow from a previous collection, so you'll want to grab it while you can! Packaged in our beautiful new box, these sets also make a great gift for anyone interested in trying out minerals! The sets retail for $35 each.
The Light-Medium set includes Mauna Loa Bronzer and Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadows in Buttercream, and the Limited Edition Tiramisu.
TheMedium-Deep set includes Seychelles Bronzer and Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadows in Leone and the Limited Edition Agate.
How to wear it:
With the Petite Kabuki brush, apply the bronzer to your cheekbones, and then use the product that remains on the brush along your hairline, jawline, and down the center of your nose.
Apply the lighter Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow from your crease to brow, with a #37 brush. Then apply the deeper shade from lashes to brows. For a little more drama, add a brown liner like Paparazzi or Espresso along the upper lash line, and a little of one of the shadows smudged below lower lashes.
Finish with Organic Nourishing Lip Balm in Mango, a juicy shade that's perfect for summer!
Here's Dea, wearing her Beige 3 foundation and the Light-Medium set!
Karin has worked at Alima Pure for four years, and is superb at keeping orders flowing out the door, from individual orders that customers place on line, to orders going around the world to our distributors.
As a working mother of three boys, Karin appreciates the fact that she can apply a handful of products without spending a lot of time, and have a perfect, glowing look that enhances her natural beauty.
We applied Beige 3 Satin Matte Foundation all over Karin's face for sheer coverage, then highlighted the apples of her cheeks with Leigh Luminous Shimmer Blush.
On her eyes, we used two Luminous Shimmer shadows, Chai from the crease to the brows, and Sienna on the lid. Satin Matte Eyeliner in Espresso, used wet, lined the upper lashes, and Satin Matte Eyeshadow in Raven filled in the brows.
As the finishing touch, Karin applied our new Organic Nourishing Lip Balm in Holly Berry. It's just that easy to look Naturally Gorgeous!

Plagerism sucks, so don't contribute to the problem. If you want to put this FAQ on your site, contact me and I'll let you. Don't contact me and I'll get pissed. Capiche? Super Smash Bros. is copyright, 1999, Nintendo and Hal Labs. All copyrights not mentioned are implied. ***_VERSION HISTORY_*** 7/15/99- Major update to the "Link Against...." section. New Disclaimer. Added "About this FAQ". added two moves. new logo ***_ABOUT THIS FAQ_*** I wrote this FAQ assuming you, the reader, already knew the basics of SSB. However, you may find some of the game basics in parenthesis and capital letters. Moves can be found in the "Link's Moves" section, but I have put them in the strategies where necessary, so you don't have to keep looking back if you forgot a move. I wrote this FAQ because SSB is a pretty fun game and I'm good with Link. I went in to much more depth than _most_ of the other character specific FAQs. ***_LINK_*** If you have been playing video games since the early eighties(as I have), or if the SNES was your first home system, or even if you're five years old and got an N64 for Christmas, odds are you've heard of Link. Link is the star of a series of very popular RPG's for any one of Nintendo's consoles(Virtual Boy excluded). His first game was "Legend of Zelda" for the NES, which was one of my favorites when I was a wee lad (I'm 16), and his latest is "Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time", which is one of my favorite games now. In this series of games, you play Link as he fights the evil forces of Ganon(dorf), to capture the pieces of the TriForce and save the land of Hyrule(except for the GB game, in which you are on some island). Oddly, none of the stories carry over to the next game and they are all pretty much the same game over and over. That doesn't detract from the fun factor at all, however, and you should play all of these games. Now, Link as in relation to Super Smash Bros. Link is one of the easiest and best fighters to use (IMHO). He's not the most powerful, and his jumping spin attack isn't that great, but he's a well rounded character. If you are playing SSB for the first time, Link is a good choice. If you are an advanced SSB player, Link is still a good choice. Here, I have put togeather the best tactics I have for Link. ***_LINK'S MOVES_*** B =BACK F =FORWARD U =UP D =DOWN R =TOP RIGHT BUTTON + =PRESS SIMULTANEOUSLY A = SWORD SLASH A(REPEATEDLY) = RAPID SWORD THRUSTS* U,A = UPWARDS SWORD SLASH U+A = TRIPLE UPWARDS SLASH F+A = OVERHEAD CHOP D+A = TRIPLE DOWNWARDS SLASH U,A(IN AIR) = UPWARDS STAB D,A(IN AIR) = DOWNWARDS STAB B = BOOMERANG(2 HITS) U+B = TORNADO SPIN U,B(IN AIR) = TORNADO SPIN IN AIR** D+B = BOMB*** R = HOOKSHOT**** U+R(IN AIR) = UPWARDS STAB(MORE POWERFUL?) D+R(IN AIR) = DOWNWARDS STAB(MORE POWERFUL?) * IF YOU ARE ON THE HYRULE CASTLE STAGE, OR THE SECTOR Z STAGE, TRAP YOUR OPPONENT IN THE CORNER WITH THIS ONE TO DO LINK'S INFINITE COMBO. ** AFTER PREFORMING THE DOUBLE JUMP(JUMP WHILE IN THE AIR), USE THIS FOR AN EXTRA BOOST, IF NOT A VERY BIG ONE. *** R AND A THROW THE BOMB WITH DELAYED FUSE, B THROWS THE BOMB AND CAUSES IT TO EXPLODE ON CONTACT. **** PRESSING R, A, OR B AFTER PULLING YOUR OPPONENT IN WILL CAUSE YOU TO KNOCK THEM AWAY. ***_LINK FIGHTING BASICS_*** If you are fighting against a friend, this section will help you. Also, until I finish the "Link Against...." section, this will help you a little against the Computer controlled opponents. While links attacks using the B button are generally more powerful, they are slower. Your best bet is to use his A button attacks to knock your opponent away, then jump in with any B attack. The platforms in SSB are very useful, by tapping D twice quickly, you will drop off. Get over your opponent, drop off, then quickly execute the downwards stab (D,A). If your opponent is above you on a platform, you can jump and preform the upwards stab (U,A), to knock them off. Then jump over them and preform the downwards stab as they get up. The Hookshot is your friend, use it often, and near the edge, sooner or later you will get a throw down. The Boomerang isn't very powerful, but it does get two hits if timed right (which isn't very hard). Also, if your opponent is behind you and above, you maybe able to knock them down by throwing the boomerang if front of you, then jumping up and out of the way. The Boomerang will curve upwards, but when you move out of the way, it will keep going, how high you jump causes it to curve more or less. This move takes some time to master, but it is useful. Your bombs are a very good weapon, but don't use them often, and don't use them too close, as they can hurt you just as much as your opponent. In most instances, if your opponent has more than 100% damage, the bomb will knock them far away, if you're lucky, this will get you a throw down. If you are fighting at Hyrule Castle, use the Twisters to your advantage. As with the bombs, if your opponent has more than 100% damage, the Twister will knock them away, usually into the background for throw down. Trap your opponent in the corner and start up Link's infinite combo (see above), when their damage level is sufficient (150% just to be sure), try to knock them into the nearest twister. If their is no Twister, or if you are at Sector Z, do the same as above, but then get them close to the edge and do a Tornado Spin(U+B) or a Overhead Chop(F+A), or use your Hookshot, and you will almost certainly get a throw down. More coming soon. ***_LINK AGAINST...._*** The tips in this section are for use against the computer. I can't say what your friends are going to do, so look in the "LINK FIGHTING BASICS" section for that. The computer, however, falls into patterns. These patterns are easily recognizeable, especially in fighting games. What I've done here is figured out the cpu's patterns and found ways to beat them. For the time being, this will only cover the fighters you face in the regular one player game, not the secret characters. This way, you are guaranteed to fight them on their own stage. I may add the secret characters later. *NOTE*-- I tested these on the game's "NORMAL" difficulty setting.--*NOTE* Link vs. Link This is an easy fight. Just trap him in the corner, start Link's infinite combo (A REPEATEDLY). Get him to about 150-200% damage, then charge him(F,F,A, QUICKLY). This will knock him up to the starting level, so jump up there and overhead slash or hookshot him off. You win,_and_ you should get a "NO MISS" bonus. And a -99 for a cheap shot.... Sometimes, he'll jump over that little turret thingie, and you can't get him in the corner for the infinite. In this instance, just hookshot or overhead slash him off, when he double jumps back and is hanging on the edge, quickly jump up and downwards stab where his hands are, this will knock him off and you should get a "SPEED" bonus. Link vs. Yoshi Team This is a fight? They hardly even attack. The best advice I can give you is knock them off in the _exact_ order in which the appear for the "Yoshi's Rainbow" bonus. There is some fun to be had here though if you get a hammer ;) Also if a red turtle shell pops up, put it on the top platform, it will knock off each Yoshi as they fall out of the sky. Link vs. Fox Fox is one of the best opponents. He is very quick, and that move he has that reflector shield thing that is _HIGHLY_ annoying. Your hookshot doesn't work well against him either. Anyway, first thing throw a bomb (D+B, THEN D+B AGAIN). _Quickly_ jump over and downwards stab. Here is where the pattern becomes obvious: after the stab, take a few steps towards the rear of the ship and continue to face the rear. He will roll to get in front of you, so take a swing at him, he will roll back behind you. Do not turn to face him! He will quickly roll back in front of you, so hit him with a boomerang, then a bomb, then jump over and downwards stab again. Jump onto the rear of ship and he will follow. You can try to knock him off now, but he'll come back. Instead, try to get him into corner for the infinite, which he'll escape after about ten hits by jumping. So when you see him start of jump hit him with an overhead slash. He will ricochet off the tail of the ship and land near the edge. Dash over and charge him(F,F,A), this will knock him off, but he will double jump and when it looks like he's not gonna make it, use his rocket punch to get back on the ship, so don't stand to close to the edge. Now you have to act quickly so he doesn't hit the ground, when the punch is over, jump and tornado spin(U+B IN THE AIR), this will knock him off. In space, no one can hear you scream, Fox. Link vs. Mario Brothers This match is only moderately hard, and that is because of the stage. Who the computer picks for your partner doesn't really matter as long as you can get both Mario and Luigi on the top platform. You'll start off on the bottom platform with Mario, dash forward and charge him(F,F,A). Immediately jump and upwards stab Luigi who should be directly above you. Mario will jump up behind you, so jump so backward so both of the brothers are in front of you. Just start hitting them with A button attacks and back them up so that they are near the edge, then hit them with a overhead slash to knock them off, only use the hookshot if there is only one brother left. The first few times they will jump back up, but just be persistant and they'll go flying sooner or later. Link vs. Pikachu Despite the fact that he is so cute, this little Pokemon is one of the best fighters in game. His electricity attacks really pack a punch. Hookshot will only work a few times against him, so don't use it too much. First thing, jump over and downwards stab him, then _quickly_ jump back to your starting posistion so as to not get hit by the electricity he shoots. When he jumps down to follow, just hit him with a bomb and then some A button attacks. Get him to at least 100% damage. From here you can go two ways, the first one is fun. The second one is tricky: 1) You may have read in other FAQs that Link's infinite combo doesn't work in Safron City, because of the random Pokemon which pop out of the door. I beg to differ, because, in fact, you can use those to your advantage. When that door opens, you have about five seconds until that Pokemon pops out. Trap Pikatchu in the corner and start the infinite. When you see the door open just keep going, and counting the seconds, when it gets to four and a half, jump back out of the way. The Pokemon will pop out and..... Bye-bye Pikachu! I don't remember if you get a "Pokemon Finish" bonus for this or not. 2) There is a bug in the game so that if you knock Pikachu in between the main building and the heli- pad, when he has over 120 or so % damage, he can't get out. At least it's like that on my game. I can't really tell you how to do this, you just have to time it right. Link vs. Giant Donkey Kong As far as I can tell, Giant DK follows a pretty much set pattern every time. Again, your partners are not important. From the start, he will begin to charge his punch, so jump up there and knock him down with a downwards stab. This should put him on the main platform. Usually the pattern is this: if you knock him off the platform once, he'll spin back. Twice and he'll spin back again. Third time, he won't come back; you win. You have to make sure of two things however: 1) You knock him far enough away. If you don't, he can grab the edge and flip back up. 2) You must knock him off when the barrel is on the other side so he can't use it. Link vs. Kirby Team Kirby Team isn't much harder than Yoshi Team, and there are only eight of them. Usually all it takes is hookshot per Kirby. A few of them might make it back though, so just hookshot them again. Link vs. Samus At the beginning of the match, she will start to charge her gun. There are two things that work well here: 1) Move in a few steps, use your hookshot and clobber her. 2) If you're quicker, you can pull out a bomb(D+B), throw it so it explodes on contact(D+B AGAIN) then jump over and do a downwards stab. Here, she'll do one of two things: 1) Start shooting at you with small blasts, in which case you should get in as close as possible, block and hookshot (Z TO BLOCK, + A TO HOOKSHOT) and clobber her. 2) Start charging again, in which case you start over. By now you shold see the acid starting to rise beneath the main platform. If you get close to her, she'll try to evade, follow and hit her with A button attacks to keep her from charging up. When the acid starts coming up to engulf the platforms, knock her far away with either a hookshot or a overhead slash(F+A), and quickly jump to the upper platforms, where you'll be safe from the acid. She'll hit the acid on the first rise, and it will lower and begin a second rise. Here, you should jump to the uppermost platform, which won't be engulfed.. Keep Samus off of this platform by hitting her whenever she triple jumps close. _DO NOT LET HER TOUCH THE PLATFORM, HIT HER WHILE SHE IS STILL IN THE AIR_. Do this right and she'll hit the acid a second time, which will send her flying into the background. Link vs. Metal Mario Okay, all this guy does is walk around and hit you when he gets close. That's it. Then why is he so darned hard? You will most likely lose a life on this one. As far as I can tell, just hit him until he gets about 230% damage, then hookshot him or overhead slash him for the throw down. It takes a while to get that much damage on him though. Link vs. Fighting Polygon Team This isn't overly hard, but it is incredibly monotonous. Just use the same tactics as against Kirby Team. Link vs. Master Hand Master Hand doesn't really have any patterns, so I've found ways to counter, or at least give him some damage with every move he does. You have to remember that there are two of his moves you can't escape no matter what: his downwards punch and his downwards slap. Lots of times you'll find him just sitting there above you, doing nothing, take this opportunity to let him have it. I know earlier I said don't use alot of bombs, but Master Hand is the exception, they take off more than 20% damage! Use bombs often with this one. I don't get why they made a boss this easy, the only thing he has going is that 300 hit point thing. ROCKET HAND-- In this move, MH's glove sets afire and he takes off through the background like a rocket. When he is about to come back and hit you the first time, triple jump to dodge it. Move to the far left side of the platform, because he always lands on the right side. While he's landing, throw a bomb then jump in with a downwards stab, you'll get two hits because of his size. TIP TOE-- In this move, he starts to walk across the platform on two fingers, when he gets in close, he proceeds to kick you into oblivion. get as far away as possible and hit him with a barrage of bombs(I've managed 3) and triple jump over him to avoid the kick. SPINNING TOP-- When he begins to spin above your head, triple jump out of the way, then while he's spinning, hit him with three or four bombs. PUNCH/SLAP-- These moves are self-explanatory. Just jump over them and hit him in the back with a tornado spin. DOWNWARDS PUNCH/SLAP-- You can't avoid these. Period. The best you can do is meet him in the air with an upwards stab(U+A). I think that covers them all. ***_ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS_*** THESE ARE OTHER FAQS THAT HELPED ME OUT: SUPER SMASH BROTHERS INFINITE COMBO FAQ, BY ARLEN KWONG.

Originally written on The Sports Bank | Last updated 7/22/13
The NFL has become a passing league. It is no wonder that quarterbacks are paid big money, given that they not only supply the ammunition but also take the blows; in some cases, you might as well put a target on them. The latest signal caller to earn some big money via a contract extension is Detroit Lions on-field general, Matt Stafford. His new payday is worth $41.5 million in guaranteed money and that puts him seventh in the list for current quarterback contracts. Is Stafford worth the money though? From a statistical standpoint, the answer has to be 'yes'. The numbers he has put up are impressive. In his first four seasons (2009-12), Stafford has averaged almost 285 yards passing per game. In NFL history, only Kurt Warner (287.5) averaged more passing yards per game in his first four seasons. But you can see how he benefits from the type of offense that the Lions play. He has dropped back more often (67.5 percent) than any other player in the past two seasons. As a result, Staf...

A French term derived from the heraldic device of inserting a small shield within a larger shield bearing the same device, and related to "composition en abyme", a play-within-a-play, as so brilliantly in Shakespeare's Hamlet where the play within the play alludes to and explicates the plot of the larger play within which it is staged. In the visual arts, one may also think of the convex mirrors in the paintings of the Flemish Renaissance, notably at the back of the Arnolfini Betrothal by Jan Van Eyck in which appears the mirror image of the room we are looking, including the painter himself and a small figure who is entering the room.

Sen. John McCain is slip sliding away into dementia.
On one of those Sunday news shows, the loser of the 2008 presidential election compared Mama Grizzly to Saint Ronald Reagan.
Mr. McCain, surely you jest.
"My friends, I never jest. And don't call me Shirley."
That's a tribute to actor Leslie "Good luck, we're all counting on you" Nielsen of "Airplane!" and "The Naked Gun" movie fame, who passed away on Sunday.
McCain is starting to sound like the Lt. Frank Dreben character Nielsen played in those "Police Squad (in color!)" TV shows and then in the movies.
No one could pick up the mantle to play that part that Nielsen made his own, but McCain can give it his best shot while he's in the Senate.
Since he's no longer a maverick.
How is Palin like Reagan? Let's count the ways, former war hero-turned-coward Senator:
1. Reagan was governor of California for two terms.
Palin was governor of Alaska for two years.
2. Reagan told a Russian leader to "tear down this wall."
Palin used to see a Russian leader's head hovering over Alaskan airspace.
3. Palin's husband's name is Todd.
In his last year as president, Reagan thought everybody's name was Todd.
4. Reagan liked jelly beans.
If McCain-Palin would've won in 2008, the Secret Service's code name for VP Palin was going to be "Bubblegum."
5. Reagan played second banana to a chimpanzee in "Bedtime for Bonzo."
Palin's daughter could use that same title for the movie about the night she and the Missing Link Levi Johnston did the nasty.
6. Reagan said "All great change begins at the dinner table."
In one of her over-paid speeches, Palin asked of Obama, "How's that hopey-changey thing workin' for ya?"
7. Reagan said "Facts are stubborn things."
Palin doesn't have to worry about facts, she works for Fox News.
8. Reagan said "One picture is worth 1,000 denials."
Palin says "One speech is worth about $75,000."
9. Ronald Reagan always manned up.
Palin is worried that freaky godless liberal scientists are going to use stem cell research to force women to actually grow a pair.
10. When cowboy Ronald Reagan spoke it was pure populism —- like it was coming straight from the horse's mouth.
Palin speaks straight from the other end.

Updated July 4th 2015 by San Diego Beaches and Adventures
The best time to see the San Diego tide pools are in the fall and winter, when minus tides occur - very low tides that are below the average.
Tides are the alternating rise and fall of the sea level, due to the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun. Many factors influence the tides, but the very low tides in San Diego during daylight hours occur during the fall and winter.
Tides can be predicted and the San Diego Tide Chart shows the predicted high and low tide for each day. Always use good judgment, as the weather conditions that day can also influence the tides.
Note: if you are visiting the tide pools at Point Loma, they close at 4:30 PM.

Additional low tides will occur again in the fall of 2015.
Which San Diego tide pools are the best? I like the ones at Cabrillo National Monument, and the ones in La Jolla the best. In general, they are better in the southern part of the county. But you can find interesting sealife at all of these tidepools.
Cabrillo National Monument - These tide pools at Point Loma (see above photo from National Park Service) offer some very nice tidepool exploration, that are worth the entrance fee to the park (currently $5.00 per vehicle). They have rangers or volunteers to help explain the marine life. For more information see Virtual Visit to Cabrillo National Monument Tidepools. If you can arrive early and enjoy the Lighthouse and other sites. Directions to Point Loma Tidepools
Tourmaline Surfing Park - At the north end of Pacific Beach, head north to find many tide pools in the sandstone and cobblestones. This is frequented by local biology students.
Children's Pool in La Jolla - Walk along the sea wall and look down and you can see mussels, crabs, fish, and more in the tidepools below, in addition to the spectacular view of the La Jolla coastline and the seals basking in the sun on Children's Pool. Take a short walk up to Shell Beach and explore more tide pools close up. La Jolla Childrens Pool
Shell Beach in La Jolla - This small beach is close to Seal Rock Reserve, an offshore rock full of seals and sea lions. At minus tide you can explore the tidepools at the south end of Ellen Browning Scripps Park in La Jolla, San Diego CA.
Tide Park in Solana Beach - Tide Park beach offers a nice view of the ocean as you climb down the steep stairs, then head north past the sandstone bluffs until you reach a small rocky tidepool area (shown above at high tide). It is officially located in Solana Beach (Tide Park beach access at 302 Solana Vista Drive, a block west of 101. Alternatively, this can be accessed from Cardiff State Beach, as it is a short walk from the south end of the Cardiff Seaside parking lot. Check out the mural of the north coast etched in the sidewalk on your way. Plenty of parking in the lot and a good choice if you have a California state parking pass, otherwise it is $10. Some free parking available along historic 101.
Swami's in Encinitas - Swami's is just off historic 101 in Encinitas, south of the gold colored domes of the Self Realization Center. Descend the wooden stairway and the rocky area with tide pools is a short distance to the north.
San Onofre State Park - Just north of the campground is a cobblestone tide pool area. To the south and at the base of the bluffs below the campground is another rocky area to explore. Located in north county of Interstate 5 freeway off Basilone road just north of Camp Pendleton.
Cost is $15 per person (ages 2+) & only $12 if you are a member of Birch Aquarium. RSVP Required: Call 858-534-7336
January 4 2015 from 2:00 - 4:00 p.m., Dike Rock
January 18 2015 from 1:00 - 3:00 p.m., False Point
January 31 2015 from 1:00 - 3:00 p.m., Dike Rock
February 15 2015 from 12:00 - 2:00 p.m., False Point
2. Watch young children carefully so they do not hurt themselves or the inhabitants of the tide pool.
3. Arrive early on weekends or holidays, as the tide pools may be crowded in popular spots like Point Loma Cabrillo National Monument.
4. Avoid stepping on animals.
5. Carefully turn rocks back over after you have moved them.
6. Don't remove any attached animals, such as barnacles or sea anemones.
7. If you pick up animals such as crabs or snails, return them to the same tide pool where you found them.
8. Remember, this is a fragile ecosystem that deserves your protection. Do not injure any animal in the tide pool.

omg omg A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail.

Cebit 2008: Lenovo Mid-Cap Survey on Green IT
A survey by Thinkpad manufacturer Lenovo and chip manufacturer AMD reveals that European companies are prepared to pay higher prices for power-saving technologies.
The notebook manufacturer published the results of the survey at CeBIT. Of 643 IT managers working for mid-caps from Germany, France and Great Britain, 80 percent said that they would be prepared to pay more for Green IT. The survey also revealed that managers need more information on environmental protection laws. 53 percent of the respondents said that they were unaware of current legislation, although the majority was aware that the current crop of PCs is not classified as energy-efficient.
The majority statement (82 percent) that managers would be willing to pay more money for energy-saving PCs is reflected in the top 5 purchasing criteria: functionality, price, design, energy efficiency, and brand name.

COVINGTON -- For the second year the Child Support Services and the Fatherhood Program in Conyers and Covington are participating in the "Bearable Hugs for Georgia's Children" campaign.
The organization is asking for donations of stuffed animals to comfort children in traumatic situations.
"Last year we collected over 4,000 stuffed animals, which benefited children served by 82 different organizations around the state," said David Harris, manager of the Fatherhood Program. "We hope the teddy bears will bring comfort and put a smile on the face of a child who may be facing illness, domestic upheaval or some other uncertainty."
The plush animals collected in 2009 were used for distribution to women's shelters, fire departments, law enforcement agencies and pediatric facilities locally.
Spokesman Mark Lee said this year they hope their campaign grows as they would like to have enough toys to share with a very special group of children.
"We'll be working with the Red Cross as well and some of our toys may be going for the kids in Haiti," he said.
Lee said donations of new, small to medium-sized plush animals can be dropped off at the Child Support Services office at 4129 Mill St., Covington, or 997 Commerce Drive, Suite 2A, Conyers, during normal business hours. Collections are being accepted through mid-February with distribution being conducted Feb. 11 and 12. For more information, call 770-784-2732.
The Division of Child Support Services helps Georgia's children by enforcing the parental responsibility to financially support children. The Fatherhood Program serves non-custodial parents who are unable to pay their child support by helping them find employment and other services that promote self-sufficiency so they can support their children. For more information, visit www.ocse.dhr.georgia.gov on the Web.

B's, Canadiens play with top spot at stake tonight - 0 Comments
It will seem like old times tonight at the Garden, when the Bruins and Canadiens clash in what so far will be the game of the year for both ancient rivals.
The Bruins' 3-2 win over Tampa Bay yesterday, followed by Montreal's 7-6 overtime loss to Pittsburgh last night, placed the Original Six pair even atop the Northeast Division with 30 points. The B's have won six straight, while Montreal is now 7-0-3 in its previous 10 games.

When the two teams travel to Philadelphia for games three and four on Wednesday and Thursday, the ticket pricing landscape looks awfully similar. Wednesday's contest is the less expensive of the two, carrying an average price of $79 dollars with a get in price of $14. Thursday checks in with an average price of $83 dollars, with tickets available for as little as $17. The Citizens Bank Park average ticket price of $81 dollars for this series is roughly 8% below the $88 average price for Phillies tickets at home this season.
While this year's Red Sox @ Phillies tickets are just 2% below those of last year, when looking back just a few more seasons, it becomes obvious just how drastically the pricing power of these two teams has changed. Ticket prices for the Citizens Bank Park portion of this series carry a hefty 30% discount from just two seasons ago in 2011. But it is when looking back to the 2010 season that the change appears most extreme—this year's two games in Philadelphia price a ridiculous 111% below the series between these two teams just three seasons ago.

Market Harborough Building Society concerned about housing market inflation
Posted: May 08, 2014|
A leading building society says it is concerned the housing market is being artificially inflated by Government funding schemes.
Bosses at Market Harborough Building Society made the comments as they revealed the society's pre-tax profits soared by 124 per cent in 2013 – to a level last seen before the financial crisis.
The society issued £73 million of mortgages during the period, up 13 per cent on the previous year.
However, senior directors expressed concern about the level of Government assistance being given to house buyers and mortgage lenders via schemes such as Help to Buy, Funding for Lending and quantitative easing (QE).
A statement by senior directors, including, chief executive Mark Robinson, said: "The emergence of the economy from five years of slow growth and recession is being talked up.
"It is clear sentiment has changed. However, the old measures of house price inflation and retail sales are perhaps less reassuring than they were.
"We remain cautious on our views for asset prices while the level of support from Help to Buy, Funding for Lending and QE remains so high."
Earlier this week, economic think tank the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development warned the UK faced a potential housing bubble because of Government policies aimed at supporting the sector.
Business Secretary Vince Cable has previously expressed concerns about Help to Buy, which started in April last year.
Chancellor George Osborne announced in his latest Budget that Help to Buy – which helps first-time buyers on to the housing ladder – would end in 2020 instead of 2016, as originally intended.
Funding for Lending and QE have also been used to help the banking sector lend money to customers. The society made a pre-tax profit of £882,000 in 2013, compared with £393,000 the previous year.
The mutual's mortgage book grew by 4 per cent to £320 million.
However, total assets fell from £414 million to £403 million, although the society remained the UK's 23rd largest.
Mr Robinson said: "2013 was another successful year for the Society.
"Looking forward to the rest of 2014, we intend to build on our success in mortgages and savings by further systems development.
"We believe we are in a good position to further strengthen our capital and market positions."
The Market Harborough, founded in 1870, has 46,940 savings accounts and 3,864 mortgage accounts.
It has six branches and about 90 staff.

First, we always like to preface jobs with this thought…
The best measure to minimize utility costs begins with an energy audit on existing buildings, or an energy efficient design and select construction materials for new buildings. Only after this, can solar plays its proper role. As we calc a system design, we may find solar will have little impact, but at least you will have the factual information to help with decision making.
When a building's history of kWh usage and cost data are available from the utility company, we can provide supporting calculations as to how a PV solar system will perform, especially as it relates to the economics. With new construction we need energy modeling data to properly size the solar system and substantiate the performance. This certified modeling data must also be submitted to utility companies and/or the California Solar Initiative to obtain any applicable incentives.
Energy studies take into account occupancy criteria, lifestyle, insulation, windows, mechanicals, electrical loads, temperature zones, body heat and etc, to produce an estimated consumption model as an important benchmark needed to reasonably quote a PV solar system.
From this data we design the system to the sweet spot for the best return on investment. This factors hardware costs, labor, maintenance, financial incentives, DC and AC power losses, energy rate tiers, and utility cost increases over time, among many other key drivers.
So for these reasons and more, we hope you understand it is not possible to accurately quote a PV solar system that will authoritatively state the reduction in utility kWh usage and cost without this data. A solar quote would simply be invalid… and this is where good homework begins!

Tortilla chip fans in southeastern Wisconsin who like to support local businesses often find themselves choosing between El Rey chips, made in Milwaukee, and Manny's chips, made in New Berlin. But recently, Manny's chips disappeared from the shelves. Or did they?
Manny's chips have been re-branded, and are now being sold under the Chi-Chi's brand name. While the name is different, everything else is the same: No changes were made to the recipe, said Chi Chi's Brand Manager Dan Hofmeister.
While Manny's chips are still made in New Berlin, in 2005, the Manny's brand and its manufacturing plant were sold to the Hormel Foods Corporation. The Manny's and Chi Chi's brands are now owned by California-based MegaMex Foods, a joint partnership between Hormel and a Mexican company, Herdez del Fuerte.
Manny's was rebranded as Chi Chi's because the Chi Chi's brand is more recognizable nationwide, and the rebranding is intended to help grow the product, Hofmeister said. But just because the chips brand has changed its name doesn't mean the brand intends to loosen its ties to Milwaukee.
"We really have been committed to the Milwaukee area and have no plans of moving production out of there," Hofmeister said. "We hope to continue to ramp it up."

I purchased this bag as a gift to celebrate my boyfriend's graduation (BS in Mechanical Engineering.) Got it just yesterday and will gift it to him Saturday BUT I am beyond thrilled with the purchase. It is a beautifully put together bag and the fragrant leather is pleasantly overwhelming! I have showed it to a few people and the reaction has been the same, they are stunned at the beauty of this bag. I am certain he will love it and am sure he will be writing a review of his own. If you are thinking about buying this bag you will not regret it!

Dancing With The Stars
Who's Dating Whom on DWTS?
With how close the Dancing with the Stars partners get on the dance floor, it's not a total surprise to find out that some of them are actually getting real close off it. Rumors are buzzing around that Chad Ochocinco and his partner Cheryl Burke are more than just friends, though thus far that's nothing more than idle speculation. When the two left rehearsal yesterday, the only thing that happened between them was "a sweet kiss." Ack, give us more!
Meanwhile, things appear to be a little more serious between Nicole Scherzinger and Derek Hough. They were reportedly seen kissing on the dance floor of Hollywood's Drai on March 17. This wouldn't be a problem, of course, if Nicole wasn't already dating Lewis Hamilton.
Watch tonight to see if you can pick up any hidden signals between the dancing paramours.

Eastern Canadian Karting Championship Announces Additional Awards
Traditionally fierce at the front, Rotax DD2 may be wide open in 2013
(Photo: Cody Schindel - INTL-KartingMedia.com)
The fourth Eastern Canadian Karting Championship season continues to draw near, and as it does the 2013 Awards package continues to develop as well. Most known in Canadian karting for its Grand Final tickets, organizers have been working to secure other awards and opportunities in addition, and the final offerings are sure to reward a number of drivers in the year ahead.
Key among the initial awards are tickets to the Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals in November. Hosted by NOLA Motorsports Park in Avondale, La., just across the Mississippi River from New Orleans, the ECKC will send 10 drivers to race in the 13th edition of the annual event, and many more will likely attend as the event hits North America for the first time. To gauge just how outstanding the Grand Final will be, eckc.ca tracked down transplanted Canadian and longtime tuner Mike Maurini of Race Tech Development and KoeneUSA.com at the final Florida Winter Tour round in Ocala.
The Grand Finals will be huge for the North American karting market, the veteran of five Grand Finals said. Not only will it provide world class racing in the USA, it will allow some of the karters that don't get a chance to participate overseas, to see what this kind of event is like. The racing is close, and a small mistake can be the difference between first and 10th. This is where the North American drivers need to improve, and just watching an event like this can make them a better driver. Drivers and tuners that are in attendance are some of the best in the world and ones that you read about from some of the biggest races in Europe. The chassis manufacturers' setups are second to none and they provide a professional and positive atmosphere for all the drivers from around the world. Also, if the karts used during the event become available for purchase afterwards, karters and potential new karters can pick up a pretty good deal before heading home!
Attending Grand Finals in North America is obviously an incredible opportunity for all involved in karting, as Maurini noted, but given the chance, every karter would choose to be on the grid. A total of 10 racers will have that wish granted through ECKC Awards, and multiple classes are looking to be wide open to competition. Retirement, class change, and the transition to cars have moved many customary contenders from the fields, and classes that have had the podium all but locked out to newcomers in the past should be welcoming new teams and faces this season. Rotax DD2 is one of those, and as an Open class in 2013.
Getting a podium in DD2 has been extremely hard to do in the past, and each year it got harder and harder to do because there was just so much raw talent in the class, said Darren White, Team Manager of the ECKC's newest outfit, Summit GP, and veteran of three Grand Finals with Team Canada in DD2. For a few years, at any given event, anyone in the top-10 could win the race, but more recently there was just never a real shot at a win in a number of series. But this summer is looking to be different with drivers moving to cars and such, and I just hope the DD2 drivers view it as an opportunity to challenge themselves and create full grids starting at Mosport.
White knows of what he speaks, and past ECKC numbers show it as well. In the first season of ECKC action, six DD2 races produced four different winners, and in the second season five different winners came from six starts. Last year just three drivers commanded 15 of the 18 available podium spots, despite healthy fields at all six rounds. Yet the scenery appears to be changing. Formula cars have lured a number of drivers, others have moved on to team management or other sporting ventures, and both Ben Cooper and Marco Di Leo have already qualified for Grand Finals. DD2 may truly be, 'Open.'
The nine remaining Grand Final tickets are fully reserved for Team Canada, and will be awarded to the top Canadian finishers in Rotax Senior, Rotax Junior, and Rotax DD2 Masters; along with the top three Canadians in both Rotax Mini-Max and Rotax Micro-Max, regardless of their position in the final point standings should drivers from other countries choose to attend.
Additional awards also await top finishers in 2013. First up, is for those who earn pole position, as UGG Canada will reward the fastest in each field with a $100 gift card. Those who turn a magical lap will be able to reward themselves by putting UGG's 'magical material' on their feet: sheepskin. They may not yet have approved driving boots, but outside of that, the options are nearly endless. See for yourself at
Position 1 Motorsports Fitness returns as a series' supporter as well, and will create custom training programs for class champions in DD2, DD2 Masters, Rotax Junior, and Rotax Senior prior to the Grand Finals. Industry leaders in motorsport specific fitness, nutrition and supplementation, P1 has worked with a number of drivers and athletes, including consecutive Rotax DD2 World Champions Daniel Morad, Pier-Luc Ouellette and Ben Cooper! P1 has athletes training around the globe thanks to its P1 Mobile Online Trainer and has its home base in Burlington, Ont., a 30,000 square foot multipurpose facility designed to build champions. Visit today at
ALDO Shoes is also supporting the Eastern Canadian Karting Championship with a $5000 award package that will be split between drivers and their tuners, and run from first to fifth in the final championship standings. Each class champion driver will earn a $150 gift certificate and their tuner will be rewarded with a $75 gift certificate. The runner-up driver/tuner pairs will receive $75/$50 respectively, and from their the awards decline at $25 intervals. Check the possibilities at
Longtime karting supporter The Decal Zone is also adding to the 2013 Awards package with $250 gift certificates for each class champion. The No. 1 source for decals, The Decal Zone creates items as small as visor strips and name bars to full kits for your kart or trailer. One would be hard pressed to attend a karting event and not find examples of their work. To see galleries and examples, visit
Additional awards and prizes will be added as the season approaches and begins. For the latest information, please visit
