On Tuesday, Americans across the country are hitting the streets to fill the polls in observance of National Voter Registration Day.
Civic groups are encouraging citizens to go to their local election offices to ensure they are registered and prepared to vote on November 6. They are hoping citizens will register before the October 6 deadline.
Voter registration efforts have gained momentum among civil rights organizations in light of threatening voter identification laws. They believe the changes in voter ID policies can keep up to ten million African Americans and Latinos from voting during the 2012 election.
Pennsylvania's Supreme Court recently sent a challenging voter ID law back to a lower court saying they will have to evaluate if there is enough time for citizens to retrieve the proper paperwork in order to vote. Political and civil rights officials are outraged by Pennsylvania's objection to the law. They believe it may prevent a tenth of Pennsylvanians, such as African Americans, elderly citizens, and college students from voting.
Other states are also determining their stance on voter ID policies.

GQF Manufacturing Plastic Game Chick Feeders - Carton of 4 5004$53.97Substitution of Poultry feeding equipment for game bird chicks has always been quite a problem to the game breeder. Poultry chick feeders permit the game chicks to get inside the feed and their droppings create a exceedingly unsanitary and unhealthy condition. Our Chick Feeder is specifically designed for game chicks (Quail, Chukar, Pheasant, etc..) and prevents droppings from getting in the feed. The new plastic 5003 feeder was developed and tested at GQF's quail farm. The plastic material was selected without color in order that farm staff could easily judge feed levels in the feeder without having to pull it out or remove the top. The feed gives a shadow effect on the sides of the feeder indicating the feed level. This saves time as a quick glance determines if the feeder requires refilling. Farm research shows that this feeder produces a good even flow of feed and is easily cleaned. Size 12 1/4'' long, 6'' Wide, 5 1/2'' high, gives 24 1/2'' of feed space. Will fit in game bird Brooder.

Good construction. Velocity and range of projectile is excellent. Wrist relief makes repeated shooting more comfortable and surgeon tube life was impressive, it didn't dry out!paul of filer, ID - July, 05 2011:
Works well for target shooting or pest control. With a little practice you will be surprised how well it shootsAgnewJr of layton, UT - July, 07 2011:
The frame is very strong. The bands, of course, are a part that does break, but I got 9 months out of one with everyday shooting with the stock band.becky of soldotna, AK - July, 07 2011:
Bought it for my kids and they absolutely love it. The rubber is strong and durable. Heavy duty and it has taken some rough abuse. Think it's a great giftBrittany of Soldotna, AK - July, 09 2011:
Very comfortable and easy to shoot.Harely of Wasilla, AK - July, 14 2011:
Fun to shoot but also an easy way to keep unwanted pest out of the yard.Kevin of Chattanooga, TN - July, 15 2011:

Making a Difference
WHS Promotes Education with Local School Partnership
Since the Office of the Secretary of Defense adopted John Tyler Elementary School (JTES) of Washington, D.C. in 1984, WHS has led and coordinated multiple recurring events in partnership with JTES to foster a nurturing environment in which both the students and Department of Defense employees learn and grow.
Annual events include the "Spirit of Service" Shadow Day at the Pentagon during Public Service Recognition Week each May, a Thanksgiving Food Drive each November, and a Holiday Gift Drive each December. Additionally, WHS sponsors a Student Tutoring and Mentoring Program to support childhood education and promote a positive National Capital Region community. Supporting JTES in a host of hands-on initiatives allows for the greatest impact on students and employees alike, along with the opportunity to see smiles on students' faces.
In 2011, the Holiday Gift Drive gathered gifts for over 90% of JTES's students. In 2012, ten WHS employees visited the "Tyler Tigers" to deliver gift bags and read stories aloud to three classes, with one student exclaiming, "this is the best Christmas I have ever had!"
The opportunity for WHS employees to visit JTES, and for the students to visit the Pentagon, provides a truly unique, enduring experience. In their May 2013 Shadow Day visit to the Pentagon, students participated in various activities throughout the day, including a special Pentagon tour and the chance to meet with senior leaders and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel.
This partnership is invaluable to the Department and JTES alike, deepening an appreciation for public service, and most importantly, creating memorable experiences.

Review Details
Ameda One-Hand Manual Breast Pump
- Product Review (submitted on May 30, 2011):
- Pumps and I don't often get along, but when I am nursing I tend to leak a lot on the other side. With this pump (that came with my dual electric pump) when I have extra time and nurse my baby girl, I can pump on the other side. It's much easier to hold and to pump - even with my tendinitis - with this pump as opposed to my other two manual pumps. (An M brand and an A brand.) SO much more comfortable to pump this way. I don't get much with it - but I don't get much with the electric dual pump either. I'm working on it, though...I'm determined to be able to donate extra breast milk since my daughter won't take a bottle at all or take it mixed with her cereal...I'd be pumping to relieve engorgement anyway.

Paths to Success: Phillip Barber
Submitted on December 01, 2010 at 8:58 AM
Phillip Barber
The entire building looks like a charred wreck. Black timbers form the skeleton of what used to be a house. For Assistant Fire Marshall Phillip Barber, there's a story in the rubble.
"Part of fire behavior is putting the human element behind it," Barber said. "You can find out who's responsible and how it happened."
Barber investigates fires for the Nashville Fire Department. He's been with the Department for years, but credits Fire Science classes at Volunteer State Community College for his move into prevention and investigation.
"It was a ten year process for me," Barber said. "I would take classes to pique my interest in various parts of the fire department. When I took the Fire Investigation class I knew I wanted to turn that way in my career."
Fire Science Program Director, Travis Ford, says the classroom or online instruction is critical for modern firefighting.
"In the American Fire Service we have more than 100 firefighters die each year," said Ford. "If you're not able to process information and make quick decisions, the way technology and building codes have changed, if you don't keep up, you're in trouble."
Firefighters have a goal of reducing firefighter deaths by 25 percent in the next five years. Part of that goal will be accomplished with new safety training classes. Ford stresses that the training must prepare firefighters for a wide range of scenarios.
"We teach an all hazards approach. Our response could be for a terrorist incident, hazardous materials or urban search and rescue. All of this plays into emergency response."
The Vol State Fire Science Program is also designed to help firefighters move forward in their careers. Assistant Fire Marshall Barber credits his promotion to his education. Ford points to many Fire Chiefs that have come from the Vol State program, including Chief John Kendrick in Cookeville and Chief Don Kelley in Lawrenceburg.
"Education is moving past the 'need to have', to a 'must have'," said Ford. "It's still a job where you get wet, get dirty and get with it, but that doesn't mean you progress to a level to do budgets and talk to the city council without an education."
Ford says the idea is to teach a firefighter to be a supervisor, and a supervisor to be a manager, and finally a manager to be an executive level officer.
For Assistant Fire Marshall Barber there's another big reason behind his 10 year quest for higher education: his three children.
"As long as they're willing to go to school, I'm willing to set the example."
Barber takes that example to a new level. He now teaches Fire Investigation at Vol State, showing others how to decipher the story behind a fire.

- 1 potato, peeled and cut into 1/8th inch matchsticks with a mandoline or by hand
- 1 quart peanut or canola oil
- Kosher salt
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin, divided
- 1 tablespoon paprika, divided
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced (about 2 teaspoons), divided
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 12 ounces ground beef
- 8 ounces ground pork
- Sliced American, cheddar, Swiss, or pepper jack cheese, as desired
- Sliced onions, shredded iceberg lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and pickles, as desired
- 4 toasted hamburger buns
Rinse cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water, changing water as necessary until water runs clear. Drain carefully and dry on paper towels.
In a deep cast iron skillet, fryer, or wok, heat oil to 350°F. Carefully lower potatoes into oil. Cook potatoes without moving, adjusting heat to maintain temperature, until bubbles from potatoes slow down and potatoes are a pale golden blond, about 3 minutes. Continue cooking, agitating potatoes occasionally with a metal spider or tongs until potatoes are deep golden brown, about 3 minutes longer. Carefully transfer potatoes to a paper towel-lined bowl and season immediately with salt. Allow to cool completely. After cooling, potatoes can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
In a small bowl, combine ketchup, mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 clove of garlic, vinegar, and sugar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Combine beef, pork, remaining cumin, remaining garlic, and remaining paprika in a large bowl and mix by hand just until combined. Form into 4 large burger patties.
When ready to serve, season burger patties generously with salt and pepper and cook burgers to desired doneness on a hot grill or in a skillet on the stovetop (135°F for medium) topping with cheese for the last minute of cooking as desired. Transfer to a plate and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Place onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles (if using) on bottom buns and top with burger patties. Spoon sauce on top of patties, cover with fried shoestring potatoes, and close burgers, pressing down gently until they just hold together. Serve immediately.

The Wastewater Treatment System
The City of Peoria has three wastewater treatment facilities:
The Beardsley Facility is the City's oldest wastewater treatment plant. It was originally placed into service in 1989 to provide wastewater treatment for the Peoria residents located generally north of Beardsley Road and east of the Agua Fria River bed. The plant went through a major expansion in 1998 to increase its treatment capacity from 300,000 gallons per day to 3 million gallons per day (MGD) and is currently rated to treat 4 MGD. The Beardsley facility uses an Activated Sludge process to create high quality effluent that is recharged in basins on the site. The City receives water storage credits for the amount of water that is recharged into the ground on an annual basis. In 2006 a new Operations building was completed on this site which contains a control room, labs, and maintenance shops for several divisions in the Utility Department.
The Jomax Facility was completed in 2004 to provide wastewater treatment for the Peoria residents located north of Jomax Road and west of the Agua Fria River bed. The plant was expanded in 2008 to 2.25 MGD and uses an Activated Sludge treatment process. The high quality effluent from the Jomax plant is currently supplied as Reclaimed water to fill the lakes and to water the golf courses, parks, and landscaping amenities in the Vistancia development thus reducing the amount of potable water supply required for that area of the city.
The Butler Drive Facility was completed in July 2008 with a current capacity of 10 MGD. This facility is a membrane bioreactor (MBR) system that not only meets today's needs but can be easily expanded to accommodate future growth without incurring major capital expenses. This state of the art membrane treatment system provides a high quality effluent, has a small foot print, and low profile compact structures. The Butler plant recharges its effluent into off-site recharge basins and receives water storage credits that will allow the City of Peoria to extract an equivalent amount of water from the aquifer now and in the future.

A new study finds that electronic medical records have failed to live up to expectations for reducing costs and improving patient care. The study was done by the same company that predicted electronic medical records would save the U.S. billions of dollars a year, and which sparked a national push toward conversion back in 2005. Patty Wight reports on what health care providers in Maine have found to be the benefits and challenges of electronic medical records.
Many health care providers agree that the switch to electronic medical records, or EMRs is a challenge. And some, like Dr. Jim Donahue, who runs a family practice in Freeport, say it's just not worth it. "Only because of the fact of the cost," he says. "After 38 years - although I'd like to practice as long as I possibly can - the payback doesn't exist in the practice. The systems themselves have a cost, but the big cost is training, employee time."
Donahue says electronic record systems alone can cost $50,000 to $80,000. Beyond the financial barrier, Donahue also thinks EMRs can erect a virtual barrier between doctors and their patients.
"I have patients who come back and say, 'I went to see your specialist and he never once made eye contact. He spent all of his time tapping on keyboards and looking at a screen and so I felt totally disconnected from the visit,'" Donahue says.
These are some of the problems identified in a study by the RAND corporation, a California-based non-profit, non-partisan research company. RAND found that while there is potential for EMRs to significantly improve patient care, increase efficiency and reduce costs, the reality often falls short.
Shaun Alfreds, Chief Operating Officer of HealthInfo Net - a Maine company that manages a centralized health records database for the state - says part of the problem may be the rush to implement EMRs over the past few years.
"And in this particular case, the focus was getting the systems to be electronic, not necessarily about changing the workflow of how health care is delivered." Because ultimately, Alfreds says, that's what EMRs are about: workflow.
Another problem that RAND identified is the inability of EMR systems to communicate with each other. "It's the bigggest challenge I've had in my career," says Ralph Johnson, chief information officer at Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington, which has been named among the nation's most wired hospitals.
"Part of it, quite frankly, is it speaks to the vendors. It's not in their business model for the various business members to cooperatively exchange data with other medical records," Johnson says. "They don't want you to buy a different system."
Franklin Memorial has been using EMRs for 15 years, and its physician practices have been using them for about three years. Johnson says the switch has paid off, both financially and in quality of care.
"Because we provide a lot of the primary care in Franklin County, as well as the hospital care, and we've seen a decrease in our emergency room admissions," he says. "But it took a few years to catch up. It's been in the last year or so that we've seen that decrease in volume."
The health care providers interviewed for this story say EMRs appear to work well in practices where the switch is driven more by a desire to improve care rather than by a desire to obtain stimulus money.
Sarah Hines is patient access manager at Coastal Women's Health Care in Scarborough, which switched to EMRs in 2008. She says now, when a patient calls in with a problem, a triage nurse can get an answer from a doctor within seconds, whereas before, "you know, a handwritten triage note put in a provider's mailox, or walk down to them as you stand outside an exam room waiting to get an answer. It's just overall a cleaner, more organized way of communication."
Shaun Alfreds of HealthInfo Net says the U.S. government needs to address some of the challenges with EMRs. Top on the list is institute standards so different systems can communicate. He says over time, he thinks the kinks will be worked out and the full value of EMRs will be achieved.

After two weeks of intense discussion countries have reached a compromise at the climate talks in Cancún. What were the main advances from a BirdLife perspective?
Biofuels are any kind of fuel derived from living things. In principle, they are a way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional fossil fuels like oil and coal. It is also estimated that emissions from burning biofuels are broadly comparable to the amount of the gas absorbed from the atmosphere when the biofuel plants are grown. Sounds great. Right? Sadly not...

So, this is the second time I've ordered this product from Massage Warehouse, and I must say they always meet and exceed my expectations.
I live in North Carolina, placed the order on the 19th and received it on the 21st!!
I purchased the two 33.8 Fl. Oz. bottles last time I ordered, and they last me about 6 months. I'm severely heavy handed with my products and generous so that was a great feat. I'm anxious to see how long this is going to last this time, now that my hair is out of its braided/twisted style, and I don't feel compelled to lend this magically awesome potion to my family&friends. They know where to get it.(And yes, when using this product, it will get that serious haha)
This leave does what it says. It makes detanlging a breeze and leave hair soft. When I first went natural I was buyinng from Target...never again. Price is right and delivery is fast.
I never make reviews but I just have to, this product is amazing for my 4a type hair, it makes detangling a breeze especially being that my hair is very thick, I'm about to work on my second liter of Giovanni now! My hair is healthy and this pair's up well with my eco styler gel this is my staple leave in as long as they keep it the way that it is :)
This leave in is so rich that as thick as my hair is, I don't even need a full pump. While it doesn't have a fragrance, it works beautifully. This stuff is so good that it feel feel a tad bit foamy depending on how wet your hair is which is why I say don't use too much. Overall, I'm thankful I purchased the largest amount because it's going to last a very long time. Massage warehouse has the greatest prices around so far on Giovanni products for the quantity they sell.
it got to me in a couple of days, so fast shipping. still trying to see if i want to order more. while my bottle almost gone so that say alot.

Today is the USA Presidential Election. More on that later. More importantly, Intel latest and greatest Core i7 Processors are out for buying and pwning. Wondering how it works? Short answer, think revamped Core 2 Quads with Hyper threading, giving the appearance (and power?) of 8 cores on a single chip. Also, the memory has been moved to the actual core if i recall correctly, and RAM is grouped in threes, not twos. Needless to say, it is a new architecture for Intel, one that more then likely requires a new motherboard. Just know that its faster, ok? And as I don't make nearly enough to replace the processor and motherboard on the computer i just built (See the thread in computer) original blade2k reviews might be late in coming, unless someone has pockets deeper then I?
Obama won.
Actually, the Core i7 processors are officially available the 17th of November.

[ADOBE TV-tv.adobe.com] Hi, I'm Greg Rewis, Principal Evangelist at Adobe, and I'd like to talk to you about Creative Suite Web Premium 5.5, specifically Dreamweaver CS5.5's support for native video. Now you've probably heard a lot about native video out there in the internet--it's all abuzz--with HTML5 video. And Dreamweaver has that support built right in. In fact, our designer called out a spot for some native video on our layout. Right now I've just simply got a page here that, again, we're looking at in live view, so we're seeing exactly the way that this page is going to render in the browser, and this particular element is nothing more than an image. Let's take a peek behind the scenes in our split view so that you can see, yes, this is in fact just an image. We want to get rid of that and replace it with some native video. Now, when I say native I mean video that is played back in the browser without the need for a plug-in. So let's go ahead and take this and just delete it, actually, from our code so that you can also see--I'll just back up a little bit. I'm going to tap my return key, and you'll see that Dreamweaver, again, is popping up my code hinting as I begin to type my HTML tags. And as I've mentioned in other videos, Dreamweaver supports all those other great new elements of HTML5 and of course one of them is video. So let's go ahead and begin to type, and there we have our video element. Now, when we use native video we need to make a decision as to exactly which browsers we are going to support, because with the video element, we actually have to encode multiple times to cover all of the individual devices out there. Now, when I tap my space bar, Dreamweaver is providing code hinting for the video element, and one of those, of course, attributes would be my src attribute. We only use this attribute if we are specifically going to support a single browser or a single platform. For example, if I knew that I was going out only to idevices with this particular page, then I could go ahead and fill out the src property. But instead, what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and just end off my tag and ask Dreamweaver to close that tag for me, and I'm going to add in a second element. That is actually the source element. Now this allows me to specify multiple encodings. So I'm going to use the source element and then, again, an src. Now the src, again, being the video that I'm going to link to. I'm going to have Dreamweaver just browse me over here on to my hard drive here, where I can find my video folder and we'll look at I've got three different encodings. One is an MP4. This is an H264 file. We'll go ahead and choose that as the first source. Next I'll hit a space and add a second attribute which is the type attribute. Now this is the to tell the browser exactly what it is that it's looking at. In this particular case, the video that is included in H264. Now this is not a mandatory attribute, but it is nice to give the browser a little heads-up that, hey, this is actually what we're dealing with here. I'll go ahead and close that source tag off, and, again, I would add in another one-- another source tag, another src, and so on because I again have to provide other encodings. We'll provide an Ogg which will be supported by our Firefox browsers. And again, we'll do that same type and video/ogg, which is our Ogg. And then finally, we've heard a lot of talk in the video community about another type of video, and that would be our WebM. We've already used our MP4. Our WebM format that is supported by the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox and Opera as well. So we'll go ahead and just type that one, and that is WebM. Now with all of that done, we actually are providing video to all of these modern browesers that support native video and our devices, such as our iPads or mobile devices. And again, we can see this all happening right here inside of Dreamweaver. I'm going to click back over into Dreamweaver. Let's scroll down a little bit. Of course, we're not seeing it. Oh, wait a second, a fish. What is this? This isn't actually what I wanted. Hmm, I do see some controls here. Let's go ahead and play this. Oh, my video is actually playing, but where did that fish come from? Well, another one of those great things that we have to offer with HTML5 is something called a poster frame. I'm going to go ahead and set in a poster frame. So we'll go back into our video element, and we'll type 'poster', and then we'll just browse over to an image that we want to use. So we'll just go into my image folder, and I've actually got a video poster frame. So we'll just scroll down and find that video poster, .JPEG. There we go. And that's actually what I prefer people to see before they actually click to play the video. Let's go ahead and reload and see our page there. And there we go--much, much nicer. Now, as I said, this is only going to be playing for browsers that support native HTML5 video. If we want to support, like Internet Explorer-- who wants to do that? Well, sure, we probably all do. And prior to Internet Explorer 9, I'm going to have to do something else in order to provide a fallback for those browsers, and Dreamweaver can help me out here as well, because with Dreamweaver CS5.5 we have a new insert element up here in my insert panel called Widget. Now, by clicking the widget, what I"m going to do is actually launch my widget browser. Now the widget browser is a separate application that connects up to the Adobe exchange and allows me to download widgets or things that other people have built in order to do things that I don't simply want to do by hand. And one of those things is a video player. It's called the Kaltura Video Player. In fact, the Dreamweaver team actually created a version of the Kaltura Video Player that provides fallback from HTML5 video down to Flash when it is necessary. So if I'm viewing on a device that does not support HTML5 video or any browser, such as Internet Explorer that doesn't, I can use that video player. Now it's as simple as simply clicking into my widget browser here. And I can either run with the defaults that the developer has given me, or I can create my own presets by simply going into my configure options. I can change the themes that I'm working with, and that's going to show me differing loading screens, playing screens, and so on. And all of this, once I'm done, we're generating the code behind the scenes that I can either copy, or if I would prefer, I can save that preset so that I can use that over and over again and simply insert it right back into my page. And in fact, that's what I've already done back over here in Dreamweaver. I'm actually using the Kaltura player to fall back so that everyone is going to be able to see my native video-- sometimes native, sometimes using Flash. So I hope that makes you excited about HTML5 video, native video, being able to deliver it, but even better, being able to integrate it into your pages using Dreamweaver CS5.5.

A pirate ensemble will often feature leather boots with a cuff at the top. For women's wench styles you can get a foot up on the competition with high heeled pirate boots. Trade in the swashbuckling for hunting and gathering with fur lined boots that are a good match for Indian or Viking styles. Other fur cuffs might be found on Santa shoes. You can add a pop of color to your ensemble with brightly colored shoes. A little color goes a long way to spice up superhero, dancer, or hippie ensembles. Some styles need no explanation when it comes to the right outfit to match with. Cowboy boots and combat boots tell you where they belong right in their names.

The Northwestern (NW) football players' possible unionization efforts have started a snowball rolling that, despite all their legal might, the NCAA may find themselves struggling like Bullwinkle to stop. Almost immediately after the National Labor Relations Board ruled earlier this month that the scholarship football players can hold an election whether or not to unionize, Northwestern officials stated they will appeal. But last week, NW former quarterback Kain Colter and Ramogi Huma, president of the College Athletes Players Association, met behind closed doors "with an undisclosed set of legislators" in Washington.
The MSR talked to Drexel Professor Ellen Staurowsky, who has worked with Huma, a former UCLA football player, since he started the National College Players Association in 2001 as an advocacy group for giving college athletes a voice. Colter "is carrying the banner" for so many others before him that have fought for fair compensation for their work over the years, noted the professor. Continue Reading →

Mona Chancellor, Class of '60, began college with the goal of becoming a teacher. Chancellor taught in South Dakota, Texas, Florida and Colorado for 20 years while raising her children. She also earned a master's degree in reading.
She married Charles E. (Chance) Chancellor, a Denver area businessman who followed his father into the oil business. Chancellor left teaching to become involved in the oil business, and she and her husband took advantage of the opportunity they had to travel around the world. When her husband died suddenly, she was thrust to the forefront of the business and took on the new challenge of running the gas and oil company.
Chancellor is now the president of Chancellor Energy, Inc., an oil and gas exploration business in Golden, Colo. She is actively involved in many organizations in the Denver area.

"The long wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have sparked renewed debate about foreign policy within both political parties. William Kristol recently said that while Republicans generally agree on domestic policy, the real debate would be on foreign policy. Likewise, in the Democratic party, the more hawkish Clinton wing of the party continues its clash with the more dovish McGovernite wing. To focus on these differences, The George Washington University in Washington, D.C. and The Independent Institute in Oakland, California are hosting a debate among the various foreign policy traditions. Please join us for this necessary and timely debate."

AG155: The Green Guardian
this wiki
There is a fire in the forest and the Pokemon are trapped. One Pokemon comes, using its power to create vines to stop the fire, in which it succeeds. The vines disappear and the Pokemon is exhausted. However, a tree falls, so the Pokemon vanishes into thin air. Later, the Pokemon appears and forms the vines again to keep the rain at bay while it rests. The gang is walking on a road and Brock tells there is a bike rent nearby, so they should check it out. However, they see Officer Jenny and the closed road - it rained so much the mud cannot be passed. However, she redirects them at a de-tour, where they can pass safetly.
As they walk, Pikachu senses something and runs, so everybody follows him. Suddenly, they are stopped by a woman and Plusle - Max tells she is a Pokemon Ranger. Ash tells Pikachu ran off, so the Ranger calls someone to tell the problem. The gang introduces themselves and the Ranger is Solana - she allows them to continue. Pikachu passes through the vines, though Team Rocket is stuck between them. They planned an ambush, but their plan is now foiled. Max tells that the Rangers help people and Pokemon in natural disasters, to which Solana confirms. They all reached the vines, but they are too thick to pass. Still, Solana tells Celebi, the Guardian of the Forest, lies inside and have to go save it.
Solana analyses the Pokemon via a device which helps the Ranger to receive data if it can help them. She sends a disc and waves with the device, attempting to capture Linoone. She spins the device and with some time passing, she captures them. Plusle uses Helping Hand, so the Linoone slash the vines - the path is clear, so they continue. Pikachu is seen to found the Pokemon, Celebi. He goes to it and sees it awake, but weak, so goes to find help. Solana tells them Celebi made the vines grow, so she was sent to investigate. They realize Pikachu went only to help Celebi, as he sensed something wrong. Solana asks to keep Celebi a secret, being a Mythical Pokemon. They agree to, and suddenly encounter Team Rocket stuck between vines. They tell they were planning an ambush, but are stuck. Solana decides to free them - Linoone slash the vines. She demands them to go away, so they run away.
Pikachu returned to Celebi with berries. Celebi eats one and feels better already. Solana sets Linoone free, as they are not required anymore. Solana decides to capture other Pokemon, like Dugtrio and Diglett. She spins the device and they are captured. Plusle uses Helping Hand, so the Dugtrio and Diglett dig. They all go inside the hole. Pikachu makes grimasses to entertain Celebi. Celebi and Pikachu lauch, but see that the Dugtrio and Diglett dug a tunnel - everyone comes to them. Ash re-unites with Pikachu and everyone spots Celebi, telling they came to help it. That night, Solana analyses Celebi and tells it will feel better after some sleep. Solana suspects it might came from the past to present after some trouble befell it.
Next morning, everyone wakes up and Celebi is happy, cheerful and healthy - the vines soon vanish. Suddenly, it is captured by Team Rocket. They go away, but Solana runs and uses some vines to go to the machine. Plusle uses Thunderwave, stopping the machine. Team Rocket are blasted off by the explosion, but fall back. Jessie sends Seviper and James his Cacnea, while Brock his Marshtomp. Seviper uses Poison Tail and Cacnea Pin Missile, but they both miss. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt and Marshtomp Mud Shot, hitting both Pokemon. Pikachu uses Iron Tail, attacking Cacnea. Pikachu uses Volt Tackle, blasting them off. The machine bursts into flames, so Celebi uses the same move - it creates vines to stop the flames. Also, it uses Healing Bell, to renew the woods. They all thank Celebi and it vanishes.
Celebi traveled back to the time it lived. Solana tells on the phone she achieved her task. Max is sad, he wanted to play with it more, with May feeling the same. Ash tells they will see Celebi again. At the end of the day, the gang is seen riding the bikes as a shortcut.
- Solana (Pokémon Ranger)
- The OP animation changes a fifth time to include Ash's Donphan.
- Officer Jenny's English voice actor was Maya Rosewood for this episode only.
- The events of this episode are alluded to in a Pokémon Sunday exclusive trailer for Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea.
- In this episode, Solana is a Rank 3 Ranger.
- Music from the game Pokémon Ranger is used.
- The Cycling Road in this episode is much different from its appearance in the The Bridge Bike Gang. In the first appearance, the bridge was surrounded by a sea while in this episode it is surrounded by a forest. The structure of the bridge has noticeably changed as well.
- This episode marks the first time an event-exclusive Pokémon makes an appearance in the main anime.
- This is the first episode in which Plusle appears, but its counterpart doesn't.
- Solana tells the Linoone to use Slash to cut through the vines, even though Cut is the move used to remove foliage. This can be noticed as Cut attack visually is one streak while slash is two.
- Just after Celebi uses Heal Bell, during the close up, Solana's Plusle doesn't have a nose, and the red patches on its paws are missing.
- This also happened when Celebi was preparing to time travel.

TRAVERSE CITY -- Cargo shipping on the Great Lakes is at a standstill as crews have taken refuge from waves up to 20 feet high churned up by superstorm Sandy.
Freighters as long as 1,000 feet haul loads of iron ore, coal and other bulk commodities on the lakes. Most if not all have taken refuge in harbors or bays to escape the storm's wrath.
Glen Nekvasil of the Lake Carriers' Association said Tuesday he wasn't aware of ships moving anywhere on the lakes. His Cleveland-based organization represents U.S.-flagged vessels. Robert Lewis-Manning of the Canadian Shipowners Association says everything's come to a halt in Canadian waters as well.
Bad weather has caused many shipwrecks on the lakes, including the legendary ore carrier Edmund Fitzgerald that sank in a monster 1975 Lake Superior storm.
