TRANSDB Considerations
TRANSDB requires backup protection since it nearly always contains unfinished transactions. If TRANSDB is lost before the Mimer SQL system is restarted, the database will be left in a logically inconsistent state.
Possible effects of losing TRANSDB before the database server is restarted are described in the following scenarios:
- If TRANSDB is lost, some of the databank updates that apply to the most recently committed transactions may have been made while others remain unfinished.
The only safe operation to do to avoid a logically inconsistent database is to bring up the most recent backup copy and restore from LOGDB. In this case, the only loss is those transactions that were not completely written to LOGDB.
- If both TRANSDB and LOGDB are lost, the restoration, as described in the previous bullet, cannot be accomplished.
In the case where a restore is not possible, the best solution is to repair the inconsistency immediately after restarting the database server. This is done by using a tool such as BSQL for manual verification and update of data. This is usually possible if the user who initiated the interrupted transaction can be identified and contacted. (Many applications maintain a parallel audit log file for tracking purposes which can be used as a basis for repair work).
An alternative solution if both LOGDB and TRANSDB are lost, is to start over from the most recent backup of your databanks and reprocess all transactions since that time. This may be a costly operation.
Keeping TRANSDB and LOGDB on separate disks under separate disk controllers will minimize the risk that both databanks are lost at the same time.
A TRANSDB shadow is another possible security enhancement, see Mimer SQL Shadowing.
Note: The TRANSDB system databank must never be deliberately deleted, because uncompleted transactions nearly always remain saved in the databank even if the database server is currently stopped.
If a TRANSDB file containing uncompleted transactions is deleted, inconsistency will occur because the information required to complete those transactions when the database server is re-started will have been lost.

Fly (そらをとぶ Fly) is a Flying-type move introduced in Generation I. It is found in HM02 in all generations. It allows the player to fly to previously visited towns, and can also be used in Battle. The Pokémon flies up on one turn, avoiding the opponents attack, then it swoops down on the next turn, dealing a good amount of damage.
In BattleEdit
The user soars, then strikes on the second turn. The damage of Thunder, Sky Uppercut, Twister, Whirlwind, Stone Edge and Gust are doubled when used on the flying foe.
Outside of BattleEdit
It can be used for flying to any familiar town or city.
Can avoid being startled by others.
Super ContestsEdit
Earn +3 if no other Pokémon has chosen the same Judge.
- As of Generation V, several Pokémon that do not have the Flying-type or levitate have become able to learn fly, like Golurk.
- Two Pokémon only learn fly when leveling up. Those Pokémon are Salamence and Rayquaza.

RUSKIN, Fla. (AP) - Fire officials in Hillsborough County say dry and windy conditions were high when a brush fire spread from five acres to nearly 30 acres, shutting down a major interstate in the area for hours.
A fire rescue statement says Saturday's fire spread very quickly and threatened nearby homes and properties in Ruskin. A mobile home, carnival trailer and some cars were damaged by the fire.
Crews for and Hillsborough County Fire put out the flames in a matter of hours.
The Florida Forestry Service will periodically check for hot spots over the next several days.
Authorities say the fire is contained but not full under control. Rescue crews are hitting all the hot spots to prevent the fire from spreading.
"Just with the way the wind was blowing it push a lot of smoke on 75," said Mike Dvorack, a spokesperson for the Florida Forest Service.
Interstate 75 near exit 240 was shut down for ten miles when the median caught on fire and smoke from the brush fire blanketed the road and reduced visibility.
The move left drivers stranded on the highway while the smoke cleared.
By 6 p.m., all lanes of the highway were back open to traffic.
No injuries were reported.

However, wellness gap remains between White youth and youth of color
Collectively, Minnesota's teens are doing better today on key health measures than they were in the 1990s, according to a recent analysis by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH). Since the 1990s, students 12 to 19 years old from all racial and ethnic groups have experienced substantial declines in rates of smoking cigarettes, binge drinking, sexual activity, hitting or beating up another person, carrying a weapon on school property, drinking pop or soda, and riding in a car without a seat belt, according to The Health and Well-Being of Minnesota's Adolescents of Color and American Indians: A Data Book (PDF: 3.62MB/86 pages) from the MDH. One exception is the level of emotional distress, which has remained basically the same since the mid-1990s. This marks the first time the MDH has systematically compared the health of teens from different ethnic and racial backgrounds — White, Latino, African American, Asian, and American Indian — and found a persistent wellness gap between Minnesota's White adolescents and its adolescents of color and American Indians. "This teen fact book shows that efforts in some targeted areas have been working to protect adolescents of color and American Indians, but it also shows that much more needs to be done," said Ed Ehlinger, Minnesota commissioner of health.

|Blood type
Sabu (サブ, Sabu) is an enka ninja music master. Killer B calls him Sabu-chan (サブちゃん) and later the oddly constructed Master Sabu-chan (サブちゃん師匠, Sabu-chan-shishō).
Sabu is a calm, collected, and often serious person especially when he is practising enka. This was demonstrated when B joked around during an enka training session, Sabu told him to take the lessons seriously. He is also very passionate about enka singing often moved to tears when performing and noting to B, that his songs should have passion.
Sabu is a short, middle aged man with brown hair which he wears in a punch perm bun-style, thick eyebrows and black eyes. He wears a cream-coloured robe adorned with a purple sash which has two purple fuzzy tassels hanging in the front. He wears a mesh under-shirt which stretch past the sleeves of his kimono.
Despite his small stature, Sabu is shown to possess great strength, wielding an enormous axe almost twice his size with great ease and dexterity. He is also highly observant as displayed during the battle between B and Kisame Hoshigaki where he was able to tell B that his enemy's sword, Samehada was absorbing his chakra, rendering B's attacks less devastating.
Part II
Five Kage Summit Arc
Sabu was introduced while teaching B how to put more passion in his music and singing. Kisame Hoshigaki arrived during their practice to capture B, and Ponta immediately charged at him. As soon as Ponta was defeated Sabu prepared to battle. Kisame ran towards him but was distracted by Killer B, giving Sabu a chance to strike. Killer B attacked as well, but Kisame blocked both attacks with his Samehada, but obtained a minor injury in his left shoulder from one of Killer B's katana. When Killer B began to transform, Sabu noticed that Samehada was absorbing all of B's chakra. After being freed from Kisame's water dome prison with Ponta, Sabu stood back while Killer B continued his fight with Kisame and upon seeing that B was having a hard time at it, Sabu rushed to his aid only to see Kisame's decapitated head fall in front of him and that B and A had killed him; though it was later discovered to actually be a transformed clone of Zetsu.
- In the anime, Sabu's name was changed to Kin (キン, Kin) for unknown reasons.[2]
- Sabu-chan (サブちゃん) is the nickname of Japan's most famous enka singer, Saburō Kitajima. Sabu is also the spitting image of Saburō Kitajima.
- Sabu's eyes and eyebrows are similar to those of Rock Lee.
- Despite being only a minor supporting character, he has been featured on a volume cover along with Naruto Uzumaki, Killer B, and Kisame.
- In the anime when "Kisame" was decapitated, Sabu was instead next to the Kumo-nin, and Kisame's head was not shown landing next to him.

Drake's Altaria is a Pokémon that Drake owns. It was used in his battle against Ash's Grovyle, which Altaria won, despite Grovyle's agility on the field. Grovyle didn't land a single hit on Altaria and the Humming Pokémon smashed it through some barrels and into the wall of a cabin, knocking it out.

|+ indicates this Pokémon used this move recently.*
- indicates this Pokémon normally can't use this move.
- Dragon Dance and Hyper Beam were dubbed as Aerial Ace and Solarbeam but since Aerial Ace is a damaging move and Solarbeam takes time to charge up, it is assumed that Drake meant Dragon Dance and Hyper Beam. However Ash's Swellow has used Aerial Ace to avoid attacks as well as strike its opponents so it is uncertain if Altaria's move was a dubbing error, or actually Aerial Ace used in a purely evasive way. Additionally Altaria's Hyper Beam looked like a Solarbeam, except it charged up too quickly.
- Drake's Altaria is one of the few Pokémon to use more than four moves in a single episode.

Snow Globe Craft
The illustrations perfectly depict a snowy winter scene. A little boy opens his door to see the snow that had fallen over night and his dog quickly escapes. As the story follows the boy trying to find his dog, it illustrates the sounds of snow through animal tracks, tire tracks, etc. It was pretty fun to have my kids imitate the sounds with me and they were engaged the whole time during the story.
We decided to imitate the book cover by creating our own snow globe scene. To complete the snow scene in our globes we painted it with glitter paint to depict the snow falling down. Here is mine below.
I simply cut out a shape for the globe out of white card stock paper and the boys used pencil to first draw their scene. After coloring it with crayons, we got out the water colors to paint the background of our scenes.
After the water colors were dry, we painted iridescent glitter paint all over the globe. It gave it a shiny texture like glass and the glitter created a beautiful snowy scene. I realize it's hard to see all the glitter in these pictures so they don't do the craft justice, but they really turned out so sparkly and beautiful! I cut a base out of brown paper to add to the bottom of our globe.
This project has really got us excited about the Winter season. We are going to do one more craft with this book so you'll have to stay tuned in the next couple days.
Happy Crafting!

An omnipresent Uncle Sam looms even larger in this photograph. A model in a red checked dress made of spun rayon stands in front of his image, regarding the icon intently. His face—and her dress—are the only things to fully emerge from the shadows, which suggests the photographer might have had more than one motive. John Rawlings's work appeared in the September 1947 Glamour.

Magazine covers materialized into multifaceted masterpieces within the lens of John Rawling's camera. His innovative work for Conde-Nast spanned three decades and the creation of more than 200 "Vogue" and "Glamour" covers, as well as a myriad of ad campaigns. Rawlings (1912-1970) single-handedly elevated commercial photography to an art form, and expanded the selling power and scope of the fashion press by imparting color and the innovative use of natural and artificial light.

- Ergodicity of a single particle confined in a nanopore

- Bernardi, Stefano; Hansen, J. S.; Frascoli, Federico; Todd, B. D.; Dettmann, Carl P.
- Abstract
- We analyze the dynamics of a gas particle moving through a nanopore of adjustable width with particular emphasis on ergodicity. We give a measure of the portion of phase space that is characterized by quasiperiodic trajectories which break ergodicity. The interactions between particle and wall atoms are mediated by a Lennard-Jones potential, so that an analytical treatment of the dynamics is not feasible, but making the system more physically realistic. In view of recent studies, which proved non-ergodicity for systems with scatterers interacting via smooth potentials, we find that the non-ergodic component of the phase space for energy levels typical of experiments, is surprisingly small, i.e. we conclude that the ergodic hypothesis is a reasonable approximation even for a single particle trapped in a nanopore. Due to the numerical scope of this work, our focus will be the onset of ergodic behavior which is evident on time scales accessible to simulations and experimental observations rather than ergodicity in the infinite time limit.

On any given night an estimated 660,000 Americans sleep on the street, or in homeless shelters. Here in Portland, that number is about 440, says Mark Swann. Swann is executive director of Preble Street, a resource center for the homeless in Maine's largest city. He's also one of the members of a task force on homelessness that presented its findings to Portland City Council Monday night.
Among the 25-page report's recommendations are the creation of more permanent housing units for homeless people, as well the re-organization and "re-tooling" of the emergency shelter system, which Mark Swann says is under enormous pressure.
I think this task force is looking towards the longer term solutions, like Housing First, but also saying, 'What do we need to do right now?' Because this community, like so many cities around the country, is in a crisis around homelessness," he says.
"My name's Jim Devine. I live on Congress Street near Longfellow Square, actually, in an apartment. I've experienced homelessness several times in the past."
Devine (left) says he's been sober for a number of years now, but his struggle with alcoholism in the past caused him to lose his job as an electrician and end up on the streets. Before moving into his apartment five months ago, Devine says he spent several years drifting in and out of shelters and group homes, or on the street.
Now a homeless advocate, he welcomes the report's findings, particularly its emphasis on what's caused the Housing First model. Devine says it's much easier for homeless people to get the help they need once they are housed.
"They're talking about the Housing First model - it's very good for a lot of people that struggle with a variety of issues, and they get help with these issues once they get housed," Devine says. "You have to get housed first. You can't do your issues first while you're sleeping on the street."
The report does not contain an estimate of the cost to implement the suggestions. But it does point out that the current system costs more than $6.7 million a year, and goes on to say that the new model would save an estimated $5.1 million over five years.
The city's emergency services would also see savings of about $2.25 million per year, says Preble Street's Mark Swann.
"People avail themselves of far fewer services if they're stable and have a place to live, a place to heal," he says. "Then they do better, the community is better off, family members are breathing a sigh of relief and it does save money as well."
The report got a mixed reaction from the local business community. While some were members of the task force, others urged caution. The Portland Community Chamber issued an 11-page response to the findings.
Among the concerns expressed: that if more shelter space and housing were provided in Portland, the city might become even more of a magnet for homeless people than it already is.
"Of those people who stay in the shelters in Portland, last year two-thirds of them were from outside Portland," says Chamber Spokesman Chris O'Neil. "Portland certainly isn't going to put barbed wire around the city and say, 'No don't come here.' But the chamber has urged caution that the council should not do the opposite of that, which is to say, 'Build more capacity.'"
Not surprisingly, homeless advocates reject this viewpoint. Mark Swann from the Preble Street Resource Center says those who believe Portland might be seen as an attractive destination by the homeless are misquided.
"I think it's a horrible mischaracterization of what life is for people living in shelters," he says. "They're sleeping on mats on the floor, six inches apart from one another - from a stranger they don't even know - six inches on each side and head-to-toe, clutching their belongings."

If you've visited the "All About Kalamazoo History" section of the KPL website lately, you've probably noticed a few changes here and there—most notably the addition of a State History Award "gold medal" banner! "All About Kalamazoo History" (KPL's online collection of local history essays) has been awarded a 2011 State History Award by the Historical Society of Michigan (HSM)! State History Awards are presented to those individuals and organizations that "have made outstanding contributions to the appreciation and understanding of Michigan history." The State History Awards are the highest recognition presented by the state's official historical society.
When asked what prompted the judges to select KPL for this prestigious award, Dr. Sharon Carlson, HSM board secretary and director of the WMU Archives & Regional History Collections, responded without hesitation by saying, "it was the breadth and depth of the collection. I regularly refer people to these information rich pages. They are an appropriate resource for researchers ranging from a middle school student competing in History Day to genealogists to more serious researchers looking for core publications about a topic." HSM education and awards coordinator, Emily Asbenson, added, "the judges were extremely impressed with the way KPL presents and teaches local history."
"All About Kalamazoo History" has grown considerably since its inception, and now consists of more than 600 pages in twenty one different categories, which collect and preserve the stories of those who helped shape Kalamazoo and its environs. Some are brief vignettes while others offer richly detailed cultural histories; all are painstakingly written and researched by members of the Kalamazoo Public Library staff. These pages attempt to provide interesting reading and valuable research tools for local and regional genealogists, historians, educators, and library patrons.
According to retired KPL Local History librarian Catherine Larson, "we have tried to answer the most frequently asked questions about each topic, (both) for the convenience of our patrons, and to make efficient use of staff time. We have tried to design a structure that is sufficiently flexible that it can grow in any direction that seems appropriate, even if we can't foresee it right now. As I recall, we established the web site in 1998 or 1999. The initial Local History offering was three essays each in four categories. We have grown quite a bit since then, and the structure has served us well. It feels good to be part of a team that puts out such a useful product."
"One of the great things about the website," says current Local History specialist Beth Timmerman, "is that it has allowed us to collaborate with other institutions in Kalamazoo. Many of the house and building histories are from the 1973 Initial Inventory of Historic Sites and Buildings in Kalamazoo which was made available to us by Sharon Ferraro, the city's historic preservation coordinator. Another great collaboration has given us one of our most popular sections—the Kalamazoo: Then and Now photo gallery. This is an ongoing project with Professor William Davis at WMU and his photography students who re-create historic photos from our collection." In addition, staff at Kalamazoo Valley Museum and WMU Archives & Regional History Collections have been extremely helpful with providing photographs and information, as have our patrons. Comments and valuable additions to these essays have been received from across the United States, Canada and abroad.
Congratulations to Beth, the Local History staff, and everyone else who contributes to KPL's virtual branch! Your award-winning library now has an award-winning website!

PROMOSOL, The Center for the Promotion of Solar Energy, is a project of Christian Assemblies in Chad, founded by Irène and Andreas Zurbrügg. It is located in N'Djaména, the capitol and largest city in Chad. Their main objective is to contribute to improving living conditions for the citizens of Chad. An important part of this effort is to preserve the environment by the promotion of solar energy. They offer solar cooking opportunities at their center, which includes; on-site fabrication of cookers, training in their use, and sales.
95% of the residents in Chad still rely on wood for fuel, and deforestation is causing the desert to advance, lower the quality of the soil for growing crops, and diminish the food supply for livestock.
News and recent developments
- January 2011: Ten solar box cookers have recently been completed, and been placed in the hands of ten community leaders, who have just finished half of their training. Currently, there is a waiting list backlog of about sixty orders for cookers, as they try to keep pace with the enthusiastic response from the community. Once this current group is trained, they will begin in February to train others in the manufacture of the box cookers.

Mad Cow Disease
What is mad cow disease, and does it infect people?
Mad cow disease is a fatal disease that slowly destroys the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system) in cattle. It also is known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or BSE.
People cannot get mad cow disease. But in rare cases they may get a human form of mad cow disease called variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD), which is fatal.
This can happen if you eat nerve tissue (the brain and spinal cord) of cattle that were infected with mad cow disease. Over time, vCJD destroys the brain and spinal cord.
There is no evidence that people can get mad cow disease or vCJD from eating muscle meat—which is used for ground beef, roasts, and steaks—or from consuming milk or milk products.
People with vCJD cannot spread it to others through casual contact.
People who have spent a lot of time (at least 3 months) in places where mad cow disease has been found are not allowed to give blood in the United States or Canada.2, 1 This is to help prevent vCJD from spreading.
What causes mad cow disease and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD)?
Experts are not sure what causes mad cow disease or vCJD.
The leading theory is that the disease is caused by infectious proteins called prions (say "PREE-ons"). In affected cows, these proteins are found in the brain, spinal cord, and small intestine. There is no proof that prions are found in muscle meat (such as steak) or in milk.
When a cow is slaughtered, parts of it are used for human food and other parts are used in animal feed. If an infected cow is slaughtered and its nerve tissue is used in cattle feed, other cows can become infected.
People can get vCJD if they eat the brain or spinal cord tissue of infected cattle.
How common are mad cow disease and vCJD?
The first case of vCJD was reported in 1996. Since then, there have been a few cases of vCJD reported in the world. Most of the cases have been in countries that are part of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland).
In December 2003, mad cow disease was discovered in one cow in the United States. Before this cow was found to have the disease, the cow was slaughtered and its muscle meat was sent to be sold in grocery stores. But its organs and nerve tissue were not used for human food. Although mad cow disease cannot be spread through muscle meat, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) quickly traced the meat and removed it from grocery stores.
Since 2004, only three more cows in the United States have been found to have mad cow disease. The most recent case of BSE was found in April 2012 in a cow in California.
What are the symptoms of vCJD?
Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) causes the brain to become damaged over time. It is fatal. Symptoms include:
- Tingling, burning, or prickling in the face, hands, feet, and legs. But there are much more common illnesses that cause these same symptoms. Having tingling in parts of your body does not mean you have vCJD.
- Dementia .
- Psychotic behavior.
- Problems moving parts of the body. As the disease gets worse, a person is no longer able to walk.
- Coma.
If a person does eat nerve tissue from an infected cow, he or she may not feel sick right away. The time it takes for symptoms to occur after you're exposed to the disease is not known for sure, but experts think it is years.
How is vCJD diagnosed?
There is no single test to diagnose vCJD. Doctors may think that a person has vCJD based on where the person has lived and the person's symptoms and past health. Imaging tests, such as an MRI, may be done to check for brain changes caused by vCJD.
Researchers are now trying to develop a blood test that looks for vCJD. But no blood test is available at this time.
A brain biopsy is the only way to confirm a diagnosis of vCJD.
How is vCJD treated?
There is no cure for vCJD. Treatment includes managing the symptoms that occur as the disease gets worse.

|Naruto Episode #152
|Appears in
|Team Info
The Kurosuki Family (黒鋤ファミリー, Kurosuki Famirī) was a criminal gang that was formed by Raiga Kurosuki, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. The newest and most eager member was Karashi. He was also the biggest coward of them all. When the clan got into a fight with the Konoha ninja who had been sent to save the village, all the members fought, except for Karashi, who ran away immediately when danger came.
According to Karashi, what Raiga did when he took over the control over the Katabami Kinzan village was to kick the evil people out and set the villagers free.[1] However, what he did was force the villagers to work for them in a nearby goldmine. The gang ensured everyone followed Raiga's orders, and those who disobeyed were buried alive.
All members had gloves with retractable blades over the knuckles. With the blades out, the members were able to use the Black Tornado technique.

Dear members,
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
he needs two ms for that
but! since he has a rinnegan, which is claimed to have been madara's at some point which evolved from sharingan, is it possible he could use that with his eye to use susanoo, assuming he could.
He needs both of his eyes....but i think due to his MS technique he wouldn't have one
I'm not sure if he would have susanoo even if he did have both of his sharingan. Tobi/obito has said in the manga that eyes that possess the susanoo are rare. I'm not sure if that means that MS is rare or an MS with susanoo is rare. Also for anyone who thinks that obito will have Ama or tsuk if he gets his other eye has not been paying attention to this anime at all. Each eye gains its own power when MS is activated for itachi and sasuke their left eye has Ama. Hence their left eye bleeds when they use it and their right eye has tsuk hence their right eye bleeds, they also gained a third power that requires the use of both eyes. In my opinion if obito got his other eye back from kakashi he would just gain the power that kakashi has with that eye which would be a long range kamui. Would obito gain another ability with both eyes is unclear in my opinion and it may not be susanoo
Originally Posted by Mr. Outside

I fixed it for you.
susano is nothing compared to obito's both eyes. As of now, obito can only teleport things through contact and it's dangerous enough with that "One jutsu" as stated by kakashi. If obito had kakashi's ms, obito would not need to be in contact and use "two" or even awaken another more powerful jutsu. He also has first hokage cell infused with him
then again, obito is not power hungry like madara, orochimaru, kabuto etc etc. If obito had been power hungry he would have stolen kakashi's ms long time ago.
Obito just wants a meaningless world. Just like his life is meaningless without rin. People who can't think, cry, feel anger, love etc. Emotionless
Thewilloffire your a idiot, it never stated in the manga that amaterasu can only be used for good intentions or any of that other crap u said u noob
his space time jutsu works just as well as susanoo would....for defence and then offence as we have already seen countless times....
Sigh, the only way Obito can unlock Susanoo is if he steals his MS back from kakashi, and I doubt that will happen. And to all the people who can't comprehend simple manga, you do not need Tsukiyomi and Amaterasu to unlock Susanoo, Itachi was only referring to himself when he stated following those two abilities, a third power came (Susanoo). You do need two powers, a power in each eye to awaken Susanoo, but not Ama and Tsuki.
No one but Sasuke has been shown using Amaterasu, and he sure as hell doesn't have Tsukiyomi. Do you know what Tsukiyomi is as a technique? In order for it to be Tsukiyomi, the user has to be able to control time and space while in the genjutsu, Sasuke has never done that, so he doesn't have Tsukiyomi, and no, it's not a weaker version because the fact still remains that he can't control time and space. Sasuke's techniques are Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi.
no need for amaterasu and tsukuyumi to use susano..u just need 2 MS eyes to use the ability.:D
tsukiyomi and amaterasu are not prerequisites for susanoo. those two were itachi's special abilities; like obito with kamui, and shiswi (however you spell it) with kotowhatever. The reason we see Sasuke with amaterasu is because itachi gave it to him just before death, this is lightly explained when amaterasu is activated on tobi/obito.
im not saying that madara doesnt have amaterasu, but it is not required for susasnoo, and he hasnt been shown to have it or tsukiyomi.
You need 2 Sharingans, Obito only has 1.
Two MS in both eyes I mean. xD
Ditto > Madara Uchiha
yes u guys are right you need two eyes with ms in them
It states you need tsukyomi and amaterasu activated to gain susanoo the greatest misinterpretation seems to be that tsukyomi has to be exactly the same as Itachis which is false itachi is the only uchiha shown to manipulate time in a genjutsu this does not necessarily mean tsukyomi has to have these same traits e.g.
Itachi was shown using his genjutsu with a finger still able to manipulate time in a genjutsu this was called Ephemeral and was not on the same level as tsukyomi meaning tsukyomi simply is a more powerful form of a genjutsu the user already possesses
So in addition as Sasuke was never this skilled with genjutsu his most powerful genjutsu is to instantly paralyze those who look into his eyes such is the same with madara this could also be classed as tsukyomi as its the users most powerful genjutsu
Also it must be noted in narutoverse they change and have many variations on the name of techniques which is sometimes just made up by the user as with sasukes version of rock lees copied move which sasuke calls "lion combo" and the parent jutsu is "shadow of the dancing leaf" why do i bring this up you ask? This is because of the variation in name of shisuis technique which is also one of the highest forms of genjutsu peformed by the MS.
Its also possible awakening the MS with only one eye present like obito may result in new powers being unlocked in the eye as with kakashis and obitos kamui
So to summarize kishi could explain it like how i have done to fill in the gaps for those who think he may have lost his way and got muddled up, then again there havent been that many people with MS to show as proof of what itachi said is fact and it could be each uchiha has a distinct different ninjutsu and genjutsu with there MS and amaterasu and tsukyomi may merely be just a similar eye technique sasuke and itachi share because they are brothers and other uchihas who unlock the MS get different powers
If you need 2 MS-eyes, then please explain me, why can madara use PREFECT SUSANOO <<<<<< with only 1 MS?
You wanna say Rinnengan = EMS/MS?

What are you talking about; Madara has 2 MS.

Personally I think you need to awaken two different powers in each MS eye to unlock Susano'O, that's why it a rare power. Half the MS users we've seen have the same power in each eyes except Itachi and Sasuke.
I think the fate Sasuke has yet to tsukiyomi and Madara hasn't show either amaterasu or tsukiyomi overrides what the databook says.
Dude, Sasuke does have Tsukuyomi and used it against bee it was even stated that his was nowhere close to the level of Itachi's and his couldn't alter time. It is also implied that Madara can use it or else his Eye of the Moon plan would be useless.

By Karen Lightman, Managing Director, MEMS Industry Group
Last we met, I told you about the uber-amazing QoL enabled by MEMS symposium I hosted at Microtech and I alluded to the upcoming Analog Devices site visit up in Wilmington, MA. Well, I have toured several cleanrooms in my time and I've seen a lot of factories. But let this be a challenge to those who would like to further impress me – because, honey – the folks at Analog Devices have it "goin' on" in the world of MEMS device manufacturing.
As the guest of Mark Martin, VP and GM for the Micromachine Products Division (or should I clarify that I actually invited myself?), I was invited to tour the ADI fab with Geoff Ward (Director of Operations). As I told Geoff during the 1.5-hour tour – thanks to him I felt wicked smarter. I have to admit that while I have worked in the MEMS industry for a decade, thanks to Geoff's in-depth tour, it all came together and man, it truly made me appreciate why folks say, "making MEMS is hard." Thank you, Geoff.
I had a ton of fun talking with Rob O'Reilly and Kieran Harney (product line manager – microphones). Between the two of them they can fill a book about the challenges and joys of manufacturing a top-notch device. I was honored to just sit in the room and listen. Thank you.
I also was delighted by my conversations with Howard Wisniowksi (PR program manager); catching up with Asif Chowdhury and Bill Murphy; as well as finally meeting Mark's right-hand, Katie Rouse. I was really touched by the company loyalty and dedication that I saw and experienced when I met employees of ADI. Several folks have been with ADI for decades – and after my day there, I can see why. Thank you so much, ADI.
After the day at ADI, Howard and I hopped in his car and drove to Cambridge for a lovely Portuguese dinner hosted by Roger Grace at Atasca. Eating amongst colleagues who came in to be a part of Roger's symposium at Microtech the following day on MEMS. I was delighted to see several colleagues and friends, including Allyson Hartzell, once at ADI and now with Lilliputian. Ally's written a fab book on MEMS reliability you should check out (and buy!). There were several others there (too many to list) – most of whom were speakers at the workshop on June 16. Roger put together an impressive list of speakers who discussed the challenges and opportunities involved with MEMS integration.
Okay – that's all for now – my next stop is San Francisco for SEMICON West. Hope to see you there!

- Not to be confused with Deconstruction for Beginners, a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV.
- "No, hold up. I got this. I need to go and teach them a little respect, huh?"
- — CJ about the construction workers.
Deconstruction is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, given to protagonist Carl Johnson by sister Kendl from Carl's garage in the industrial district of Doherty in San Fierro, San Andreas.
Carl goes in the garage, checking on his team, who are working on a Remington. Suddenly, an angry Kendl comes in, the construction workers from the construction site next to the garage have been a nuisance to her, calling her names and hitting on her. Cesar quickly tries to go there to teach them a lesson, but Carl insists that he do it.
Carl goes to the nearby construction site to try and scare off the firm. Carl destroys six portables using a bulldozer or blowing them up before the cops arrive. After that, Carl, who is still using the bulldozer, pushes a portable toilet into a ditch, since the foreman is hiding in the portable toilet. Carl then uses a cement truck to fill the ditch with cement, burying the foreman alive.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Destroy all the portables. You will need a bulldozer
- Destroy all the portables before the cops arrive
- Bury the foreman and his toilet
- Get in a cement truck
- Back into position in front of the hole
- Use the barrels to destroy some of the portables, by shooting them. This will save you some trouble.
- Some of the workers have handguns. Be careful as the bulldozer's cockpit is open, though they aren't much of a threat.
- There will also be another bulldozer trying to ram you.
There is no monetary reward for this mission, but the missions Photo Opportunity and Back to School are unlocked.
- The portables can be destroyed by any heavy vehicle or even the Rocket Launcher.
- Many fans regard the foreman's murder as the most gruesome CJ ever did.
