Italics removal
I don't see any manual of style articles here explaining how articles should be written but I see you've removed the italics from the prior to on the evolution episode, should all articles like this not have italics there? Should the prior to above that under the episode captured also be not italicized? I can see why you would want the italics gone, it does look better without. . ƒelinoel_ 19:05, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
- Oh also if you direct me to some well-written articles of different types like say a good article on a pokemon, on a person, on a game, on an episode, etc, I can mock up some mock-ups of potential Manual of Style articles or even just a single descriptive MoS article (though personally I prefer the example route because people find that easier to understand and follow). . ƒelinoel_ 19:08, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
- Including the episode caught? Ok I removed that too then. . ƒelinoel_ 19:09, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
- Personally I find example pages to be easier for the common user to understand and easier for the article writer to compile. . ƒelinoel_ 20:10, October 9, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. Oh and we're gonna need a color scheme for Fairy types. Picked out a color to start. The hex code is FFC3E1. What do you think? Or maybe FFB4D9 and FF96CA and FFA5D2. Think about it for a while.

Serebii start putting up the info so this is close to official. Or this could all still wait til launch. Your call. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 15:28, October 10, 2013 (UTC)
- X and Y page? The official page or the wikia's page? --OmegaRasengan (talk) 16:11, October 10, 2013 (UTC)
- Personally it might be safer to wait until launch, one thing I always hated about Bulbapedia is how much speculation they always put on their pages when a new gen is about to come out. As a seasoned wiki editor, I despise speculation...

Community Messages
Hi~ I noticed that you have on the community message not to steal images from Bulbapedia. Would it make sense to add Serebii to that as well, since it's just as popular? —snoωed ℓightning 17:09, 10/13/2013
Actually, that should be extended to all sites, no? We wouldn't want anyone to comment how we "steal" images from other similar sites. Energy X 17:26, October 13, 2013 (UTC)
Yes, very true. It was only a suggestion, since I know some fans (who might not know any better) who only want to help have taken images from other websites. I've actually seen it happen on Bulbagarden before, although I think they were taken down... I only browse there, I don't edit. Also, I noticed how you just changed the message, and I must say, that sounds /much/ better now, and it's clear that taking any information from other websites isn't allowed. I do apologize if I seem like I'm talking down on you with the "much better" thing; it's not intentional and I'm not trying to be rude. —snoωed ℓightning 17:33, 10/13/2013

Not that I want to tell you things need to be done but there is a small list:
1. Ask Ken Sugimori for all gen vi official artwork.
2. Work on Fairy-type color scheme for Valerie's article.
3. Pokedex overhaul. Include height, weight, and real XY pokemon small sprites.
That's it.

1. Sorry. But now there are no trainer spries this time around just offical art in game. And I saw the Swimmer Female. Besides, we have official art for half the Gym Leaders of Kalos so why not include the other half. And we'll need badge art for the upcoming XY episodes.
2. Can do.
3. Serebii.net got the small sprites and I got started already. Just separate the small sprites from the big ones.

Evolution line template
To try to not copy Bulbapedia but still design an evolution template so that evolution can be listed as a clear image, I took the PokéBox template apart since that is code belonging to here and definitely not Bulbapedia and I was able to throw together a general idea of what I had in mind, the coding is a bit messy but the general idea of it is there. I used a luxury ball for friendness to try stay away from what Bulbapedia uses but the breeding thing should be an egg but there is no good egg sprite here I could use for this general draft. The final version would have options for the Hows, like you could say level|13 and it would automatically fill that stuff out, but I figured this is just a preview version to show the general idea of the design and then in the pokebox itself where the evolutionary line is currently you could put the PokémonPrevNext template instead and just have it be based on numbers automatically instead of manually. Thoughts? . ƒelinoel_ 16:05, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah I originally tried that egg sprite but it has a huge clear border that just stretches out the area sadly.
- Hmmm, lemmie try that then, sec. . ƒelinoel_ 16:23, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- Is this what you had in mind? (I added the Shinx line to show how it looks like with regular evolutions.) . ƒelinoel_ 17:07, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- Uhhhhh... >.>; lol you are fine to edit it yourself because I already tried to code it like that but totally had a brain fart and went the other route instead that you didn't like. . ƒelinoel_ 17:46, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- Is this what you had in mind? (I added the Shinx line to show how it looks like with regular evolutions.) . ƒelinoel_ 17:07, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- and then here is what I was talking about doing with merging the PokémonPrevNext template into the PokéBox in place of evolution. . ƒelinoel_ 17:58, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- I'll ask someone if they can figure out how to split the columns while in the same box then. . ƒelinoel_ 18:08, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- Because it puts the info of the PokémonPrevNext in the PokéBox where the evolution line used to be. . ƒelinoel_ 18:08, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

- I think so, yeah. So do you see why I was suggesting replacing the evolution line on the PokeBox if this Evolution template gets used with what the PokemonPrevNext template shows? . ƒelinoel_ 19:34, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
- What exactly do you have against it? The images? The number showing instead of the name? The arrows? . ƒelinoel_ 00:21, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
- Pointless markings? Could you copy and paste what those markings are? I pretty much took the PokemonPrevNext template and put it exactly as it is onto the PokeBox, and then added images because people like pictures. . ƒelinoel_ 16:09, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah I copied the arrows and the v-lines directly from the PokémonPrevNext template? . ƒelinoel_ 16:23, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
- Oh wait, so you don't like the PokémonPrevNext template too? I thought you did like it that was why I based the PokeBox usage from it... . ƒelinoel_ 16:27, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
- Is it because it is on the bottom? I can move it to the top if that would help? . ƒelinoel_ 16:35, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
- But there is nothing telling you what it is on the PokémonPrevNext either?
- Yes I've noticed some pokemon articles have that there, but if the evolution template I suggested is able to get tweaked to the way you wanted then there would be no need for that in both places, I was suggesting this to clean up the articles so that there would be less things popping out at the viewer potentially confusing them seeing all info at once especially all info in various color schemes. This suggestion would remove the need to have both a PokémonPrevNext window and a PokéBox window on the same page because it moves the info to in the PokeBox making the article more compact and easier to read and less flamboyant. . ƒelinoel_ 16:43, October 16, 2013 (UTC)

A while back you told me you work at Bulbapedia. So I have a few concerns there:
1. This is obvious, Bulba managed to do a beautiful, if not fully detailed, episode plot for XY001.
2. I find it a bit unfair that Celosia of Team Flair has her own "by herself" artwork, yet the other three have to have their groupshot artwork. If they had their own "By herself artwork, that would be great. The Kalos guide came out and there's official art of Mable, Bryony and Aliana by themelves, not in a group. There's also Olympia, Wulfric, Malva and Siebold. There are for Wikstrom and Drasna but neither pic is good.
3. Voice actors. I believe that, through process of elimination, you can find a chafracters voice actor/actress if you differentiate them from the rest of the cast. For example: Sarah Natochenny, Eileen Stevens, J Griff and Pikachu are the bulk of the main cast. But remove them from the equation of cast members, listen to the voices, try to match and you may find what you're looking for. I seen enough episodes of 5d's to tell Gemma was voiced by Cassandra Morris before Eileen took over. I just saw the Clair episode, No idea who voices new Clair though.
Just thought you should know.

You too? I watched enough of the old episodes to recognize the old va's but new ones throw me for a loop. And this may be speculation on my part but I think Malva's eyes are pink. either that or pinkish orange. Bulbapedia is not like us. I mean, every site said Lisa Ortiz was the voice of Bianca in Pokemon Heroes. but I heard the voice of Tara Sands (Tara Jayne back then) more than enougn times to know that she was Bianca, not what most sites say. If only she could tell them that it would end this war of confusion. And the plot thing, you must have a really great writer there. When I have time I'll try to bit by bit fill in every detail of the plot, without making it seem like I copied from Bulbapedia.

Wikia Parent Filter
Hey Jade! :D Doug from Wikia again! How have you been? Wanted to stop by to let you know that Wikia has recently incorporated a Parent Filter feature for the site, to help give parents a few key details about particular wikis that their children may be browsing.

We would really appreciate if you, or another admin on the Pokemon wiki, would fill in some of this key information onto the Parent Filter page. I also have the ability to fill this out for you, if time is limited for the admin base for any reason.
A few great examples of a completed parent filter can be found here and here. Thank you for the cooperation! Let me know if need any help with this process. Have a good one!

[Sue Montoya, Photography New World School of the Arts] I love old photographs—the texture, the grip, even the grain. My name is Sue Montoya, I go to New World School of the Arts, and I live in Miami, Florida. I study photography. This project came along to do something that the theme was positive and negative. So I decided to do something conceptual and do positive and negative times. Fractured Times is a series of five collages. They all have to do with my mother's past in Honduras. It tells a story from the immigrant perspective. Either the anxiety or the sadness or just the happiness. I first started with scanning these beautiful photos of my mom. Then I took them into Photoshop. To get the fractures, I used images of minerals and lace. And then from that point I used the magic wand to select some of the parts to make that kind of fractured texture to kind of represent the chaos in that time. With Photoshop you kind of realize that you have all the tools to come up with innovative and different work. It can be more than just photo editing. It can be creating like these series of art works that represent you. It was super fascinating to just learn all these things about this woman that I never thought twice to ask. I see her as a professional, I see her as a great mother, and I see her as like just an inspiration. [Sue Montoya #madethis] [Make it with Creative Cloud.]

Hmm, never have thought at it. Though this was indeed one of her biggest shown feats as well, dealing with poison and such.I am actually thinking if Sakura does help in the fight it may be through some sort of poison to help neutralize wood style. She was shown creating an antidote to Sasori's poison in the beginning of Shippuden. As you said she seemed to have knowledge about and take interest in Yamato's wood style when he first appeared and showed it. Then she was shown making a poison to try to use against Sasuke in the Kage summit arc. Then Kabuto captures Yamato and brings him to Obito who seems nervous when Kabuto says he is suppressing Yamato's wood style through poison. You could say he was nervous because Kabuto could use this poison if he wanted to stop the Zetsu but he also could be nervous because as we now know a good chunk of Obito's body is made of Zetsu and a poison that suppresses it could be dangerous to him. Madara also has Hashirami's woodstyle cells incorporated into his body. Then in the war Sakura separates from here unit with Kakashi to go to the medical tents. Here she confronts a transformed white zetsu in the form of Neji and defeats it and then immediately recognizes that it was a zetsu transformation technique. This could have been the end of here involvement with Zetsu because after this the alliance was notifies by her it was Zetsu's transforming and then Naruto could have taken care of it. Still after there are panels of Sakura and Shizune are doing an autopsy of the Zetsu body and Sakura finds out that it is made of the first Hokages cells and that they are using Yamato to boost it. Shizune was also the one that Kakashi said helped her make the poison she was going to use on Sasuke. This extra analyzing of the Zetsu's cells and here seemingly great knowledge of it might mean nothing or it may foreshadow that she is going to use this in some way. If she does make some sort of poison to subdue woodstyle she could then give it to other members of the alliance who could then work together to inject it into either Madara and Obito to try to weaken their otherwise immense power.
(In summary Sakura can make poison. It has been hinted at poison can subdue woodstyle. The two main villains at the current battle are largely being powered by woodstyle. Sakura has shown great knowledge before the war and gained even more knowledge during the war of the nature of woodstyle. She is now heading toward this battle. Now I have no idea where the Jubi fits into this though.
Would be nice to see but, indeed, I wonder where Jubi fits, heh.

need to figure out which of the 'sun squirrels' this is
Calling around puddles at night after rain
trash bird of west africa
One of the guys helping me catch frogs could do this great trick where we'd turn off our flashlights and he'd make this grunty call and when we turned the lights back on , one of these would be attracted right next to us.
Only found one of these and didn't get a chance to match it to its call
(Thanks to Mark-Oliver Roedel for the ID who also says its female)
In the field, though it was another of these: http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/73916
but looking at the photos they are quite different, this one is much more robust with different shape and colors
(Thanks to Mark-Oliver Roedel for the ID)
pretty common in trees at night with a standard 'er er er' call
(Thanks to Mark-Oliver Roedel for the ID)
This is the second 'mamba vert' I ran into, this one was blocking the path back to the station as it was getting dark. I had to use a VERY long stick to push it aside so I could pass, it bit the stick several times!
yes! so common in Tai you almost forget how spectacular these guys are
This is the one that got away because they jump like crazy. Lots calling around a puddle after the rain, must have tried 1000 times to catch one.
(Thanks to Mark-Oliver Roedel for the tentative ID)
Found first a male calling from a puddle and later probably that same male mating, I guess catching him the first time around didn't throw off his game...
Found this guy swimming in a tup of water the morning after a night of heavy rain.
(Thanks to Mark-Oliver Roedel for the ID)
couldn't get a good picture of these little flitty canopy birds with red tails

Rick Mora
Revision as of 19:09, November 5, 2012 by 188.8.131.52 (Talk)
this wiki
|Richard Mora
|Biographical information
February 1, 1975
Native American
|Hair color
5' 10"
|In Twilight saga
Richard "Rick" Mora is the actor who portrays Ephraim Black in the flashback scene of Twilight.[1] He is also a model, musician, photographer, and producer.
He is of Native American descent.
Planted in the womb of my mother, a seed from the Sun. Birthed in a field of corn called Los Angeles but raised on 100 acre cattle farm in Crescent City, California. Born Yaqui and Apache of Mestizo descent, a Native man raised from the land with no electricity, no plumbing, a wood burning stove and mother who possessed the powers of mother earth.
Returning to civilization for an education by socialized America, I acquired a bachelor's degree from California State University, Northridge.
After college I was encouraged by a friend to meet his modeling agent. My life would never be the same. It was legendary male super model agent Omar Alberto's idea to try the Native Man in the modeling business. Having successfully shot with great photographers like Carlos Reynosa, Cliff Watts and Matthew Rolston allowed me the access to American & European commercial and modeling market. I was then booking great commercial & print accounts like Toyota, Wilson Leather and Anson's Germany. Small spots in Television, Film and Voice soon followed. Auditioning and not landing roles with Disney / Jungle Book and Mel Gibson / Apacolypto were a just a few inspirations that kept me going till landing a small scene in the blockbuster movie TWILIGHT as Jacob Black's great great grandfather, EPHRAIM BLACK, leader of the original Werewolf Tribe. Life has not been the same since.
Fast forward to today. Current accounts have included Union Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, Koff Beer, Bell Meat. I have completed production on Yellow Rock with Michael Biehn, James Russo and the Spears Brothers. Yellow Rock has already received 3 film awards.
The Dead and the Damned has been very well received world wide distribution and placement in Red Box and Target, I am the voice of Young Turok (alongside Irene Bedard and Adam Beach) in the animated feature Turok : Son of Stone based on the video game and am currently in development on several motion picture productions. I have 4 Rick Mora posters being distributed and have been featured in the 2009 & 2011 Native American Men's calendar. With numerous Magazine Cover's and interviews as a result of the growing popularity of the Native American presence in the entertainment world it was inevitable I would find my way to Radio with huge support from LA Talk Radio's combat radio as a celebrity guest and co-host. My latest music video with Agnes Carlsson has hit over 4.7 million views and is still growing, my web presence is in the millions with a world wide fan base and I am proud to be an ambassador of the Red Crystal Gala, An E. Joyce Thomson charity to support abused women and victims of sexual assault on the reservation and am on the Board of Directors for SAVING CANINE LIVES, a dog rescue organization working with the Humane Society.[2]

Gov. Paul LePage met with a group of reporters to defend his positions around welfare reform, and to address several other issues facing the embattled Department of Health and Human Services. Those issues include widespread problems with the transportation program for MaineCare clients to the recent hiring of a controversial Medicaid consultant at the cost of $1 million. As Mal Leary reports, the governor also announced that he's changing a policy that's been a roadblock between legislative Democrats and his office.
The governor addressed a range of issues in the nearly 40-minute-long session in his office. He says an agreement reached with legislative leaders on improved decorum at legislative committee meetings means he will reverse an earlier position and allow his commissioners to appear before committees.
"We have been working with leadership for the last three weeks to resolve the differences, and we have all come to the same place. Today it's going to be announced that all my commissioners and everybody go back and work with the committees. But I need some level of decorum. I do not need legislators calling them the types of names and insults that go on."
Senate President Justin Alfond, a Democrat from Portland, says all the leaders of the Legislature, from both parties, have sent a letter to committees urging them to follow the basic rules of decorum.
"We are going back to normal and I think Mainers have seen that whoever is in power that we want to do what is right for the state of Maine we are going to do it in a job that is done at the highest level. To do that , we need information and now that we are going back to normal where commissioners and other staff from the executive will be available to use that we will have good results for the people of Maine."
Many of those issues that need to be addressed are in DHHS, and LePage covered several in his news conference. For example, he says the scope of abuse of the electronic benefit cards used in state welfare programs needs to stop.
"The speaker of the House says it was a small problem, insignificant. It?s a major problem, major?far bigger than I would ever, ever have imagined. And it?s not thousands of dollars; it is in to the seven digits. This is big, this is a big, big problem."
House Speaker Mark Eves, a Democrat from North Berwick, says he never characterized the problem as small and that lawmakers will address fraud and abuse.
"Nobody wants to have cash benefits pay for alcohol and cigarettes. That is not what this is about, the Governor is trying to score political points here. But, of course, we are going to take fraud and misuse of any state money seriously."
The governor told reporters that the Alexander Group has provided a report recommending changes to MaineCare, the state?s name for Medicaid. But he will not release it until he has read it.
"The report is being looked at by the department. And I am going to be looking at it. And when we are ready and feel that?..yeah we can get you the date it came in, but I know that it is here. I just haven?t had a chance to look at it and when I have looked at it and we are all comfortable are on the same page. We all have the same understanding, it will be released."
DHHS confirms they received the report on Dec. 16 and don't expect to release it until the week of Jan. 6. In addition to several news organizations - including MPBN - requesting copies of the document, so have committees of the Legislature.
The governor also commented on the months-long problem of new providers of transportation for MaineCare clients to get to medical providers. He agrees there have been serious problems, but not all at DHHS. He says the state bidding process, or request for proposals, needs improving.
"The problem is in our RFP system. I just haven't had the time to get to that and to refine that. In fact Justin Alfond, the President of the Senate and I totally agree that is a failed system."
The governor says it's likely some of the current contracts will not be renewed and he pledged that the problems will be fixed.
He also told reporters he only regrets one of his several statements that have generated wide spread criticism since he took office, and that was the harsh comments he made about Sen. Troy Jackson, a Democrat from Allagash, earlier this year. The governor says he erred by taking some of Jackson's comments personally.
"Nobody sitting in this seat should take it personally. That day it took it personal and I want after him. And that is the only reason I got angry at him. I got a sick mother in law who lives with us and he tried to throw her out on the street and I took offense to that."
The governor says as far as his other headline generating comments: They stand.

- Abstract
- There is an increase in the use of implantable medical devices for the repair of soft and hard tissue. Many such devices can initiate acute inflammation, or become infected when implanted, resulting in device failure. Alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) is a potent anti-inflammatory hormone, which also possesses antimicrobial properties, produced in the body with very short peptide sequences that make it amenable for easy laboratory synthesis. The aim of this work is to immobilise short MSH peptides onto medical device surfaces using molecules called resorcinarenes, which are known to attach to a wide variety of material surfaces. This is being approached by synthesizing MSH-resorcinarene molecules with the aim of being able to 'dip and dry' treat medical devices with an antiinflammatory and antimicrobial 'coating'.

By Walter F. Roche Jr., The Tennessean
The Massachusetts drug compounding firm blamed for a nationwide fungal meningitis outbreak that has hit 140 Tennesseans is seeking bankruptcy court approval to hire a high-priced Washington, D.C., law firm to represent it in an ongoing congressional investigation.
In a petition filed Friday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Boston, lawyers for the New England Compounding Center are seeking approval to hire the firm of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld at rates of up to $1,200 an hour.
According to the petition, the Washington law firm already has been paid a $150,000 retainer by a sister drug company, Ameridose LLC.
The petition states that none of the retainer money has yet been spent and future payments for Akin Gump's services will be paid by Ameridose, not NECC. The same law firm has and continues to represent two of NECC's owners, Barry J. Cadden and Gregory Conigliaro, Ameridose and a third company, Alaunus LLC.
The meningitis outbreak is the subject of investigations by U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions and the U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Cadden was subpoenaed to appear before a Senate panel late last year but refused to answer questions, citing his Fifth Amendment rights.
NECC has been named by state and federal officials as the source of fungus-tainted spinal steroids that have sickened more than 664 people and killed 40, 14 of them in Tennessee.
Earlier this week the U.S. trustee petitioned the bankruptcy court to appoint a trustee to oversee the liquidation, citing what he charged was a conflict of interest involving a recently appointed NECC board member. NECC issued a statement promising to fight the appointment, stating that it would hinder efforts to establish a victims' compensation fund.
According to the filing, Akin Gump will be paid fees ranging from $360 to $1,200 an hour for lawyers and from $135 to $310 an hour for paralegals.
Lawyers for NECC stated in the filing that since the Washington firm will be working only on the congressional investigation and not the bankruptcy itself, "Akin Gump is not subject to the fee application procedures" of federal bankruptcy law.
"NECC submits that the employment of Akin Gump as special counsel would be in the best interest of NECC's estate and its creditors," the petition states.

|Wandering Ninja Clan
|Naruto the Movie 3: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom
|Appears in
|Team Info
The three wandering ninja were mercenaries who appeared in the Naruto the Movie 3: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom.
Despite being missing-nin, the forehead protectors they wore bear no markings, thus not signifying which village they originated from (if at all). All three had low-cut hair but wore what seemed to be wigs and specialised in close-combat, combined with a performance-dulling powder that confounds the opponent.
Plot Overview
Shabadaba hired the three ninja to kill Kakeru Tsuki, the king of the Land of the Moon, and then to kill the king's son Michiru and grandson Hikaru, so Shabadaba can inherit the throne. While successful in killing Kakeru, the three ninja were stopped from killing the other two, and the three were later killed by Naruto Uzumaki, Rock Lee, and Sakura Haruno.
- The three of them made a cameo appearance on the cover page of chapter 318.

Jesus Christ: Exorcist
When we rush to explain away Jesus' miracles, we risk overlooking the deeper message of his liberating power.
Belief that the world is filled with spiritual powers (both wicked and good) was widespread in the ancient Near Eastern world. Old Testament authors presumed the existence of angels. They also wrote about evil spirits, including one that tormented Saul (1 Samuel 16:14), and a lying spirit sent to Ahab (1 Kings 22:19-23). A character "Satan" (literally the "adversary") also appeared a few times, portrayed as the "prosecuting attorney" in God's heavenly court (Job 1-2; Zechariah 3:1-2; 1 Chronicles 21:1).
But in the Old Testament era the devil was not yet viewed as archenemy of God, ruler of demons, and oppressor of the peoples of the world. Such a picture developed between 150 B.C.E. - 50 C.E, partly as a consequence ofZoroastrian
influence. Zoroastrianism taught that the world was locked in ongoing warfare between forces of good and evil. The chief evil deity ("Ahriman") commanded a host of demons, just as the god of goodness and light ("Ahura Mazda") commanded a host of angels.
Many Jews adopted this framework and reinterpreted their own traditions to fit. Invoking Isaiah 14, they identified Satan as a once-glorious angel, cast out of heaven on account of arrogance and now seeking revenge. Typically, they identified demons as offspring of errant angels (Genesis 6:1-4)-or as errant angels themselves, now twisted into demonic form and obeying Satan as lord.
Jesus, his adversaries, and many other first-century Jews assumed that all that happened in the world reflected the working of unseen spiritual powers. These powers, or "authorities," were created by God to uphold God's reign, and many of them did (Romans 13:1). But some, led by Satan, worked to thwart God's purposes (Ephesians 6:12). Indeed, the devil was viewed as not merely ruler of demons but as "ruler of this world." For eons, it was believed, he had enslaved the vast throngs of humanity: some through sickness and demon-possession; some through their practice of idolatry (which glorifies Satan); some through their adherence to false prophets and magicians (Satan's special ministers of evil).

Fasting Diets

He has a PhD in Microbiology (UT at Austin), and the MD (Univ. Texas Medical Branch, Galveston). He is a Clinical Professor (retired) in the Division of Emergency Medicine, UT Health Science Center at San Antonio, and has been the Chief of Emergency Medicine at UT Medical Branch and at UTHSCSA with over 250 publications.
Fasting diets introduction
Fasting to lose weight is nothing new, but a new crop of trendy diets has brought the practice back into the spotlight.
Diets like the 5:2 Diet, Lemonade Diet, and others claim to help people lose weight fast and detoxify the body, but the research to support those claims is spotty at best.
What are intermittent fasting diets?
The 5:2 diet was recently the topic of a popular BBC documentary and book, and it's based on the principle of intermittent fasting (IF) or alternate-day fasting (ADF). Intermittent fasting means you eat normally at certain times and then fast or dramatically reduce your calorie intake at other times.
The 5:2 diet calls for eating normally on five days of the week and fasting (eating no more than 500 calories for women and 600 for men) on the remaining two days. Proponents of the 5:2 diet and similar fasting diets claim that they can increase lifespan, improve how the brain works, and protect against disease; but most of those claims are based on research conducted in animals like rats and mice.
There are some small studies in humans that suggest that intermittent fasting diet may help promote weight loss and reduce risk factors for heart disease, diabetes, and other weight-related health problems. For example, a small 2012 study in Nutrition and Metabolism showed 30 obese women who followed a liquid intermittent fastingF diet lost 8.8 pounds and 2.3 inches from their waistlines after eight weeks. (Excess body fat around the waist has been associated with a higher risk of heart disease.)
Another 2012 study in Nature suggests that the life-extending benefits rodents gained on fasting diets may not translate to larger and more human-like animals, like monkeys.

Points North Heli Adventures is the only heli-skiing operation utilizing the southeastern side of the Chugach Mountains.
Over the past decade, the Chugach Range has proven to be the premier destination worldwide for helicopter skiing and boarding. Accessed by ferry or plane, Cordova is unlike any other community in the state. Alaska Airlines flies into Cordova twice daily from Seattle and Anchorage. Upon arrival, a PNH team member will greet you and help with your luggage. A short, fifteen-minute drive to our facility offers many opportunities to see bald eagles, moose and the beautiful town of Cordova. Along the way you will also view the breath taking Chugach Mountains that you will soon be skiing or riding.
Our base location in Cordova is 40 miles from Valdez and allows us to provide you with a 'private' playground in our backyard. While other 5 operations in Valdez share terrain, we are able to explore areas that the others cannot conveniently access. We continue to find new terrain each year catering from the intermediate level recreation skier to the world-class athlete. If you have heard of heli skiing in Alaska, and are already this deep in your research of operators, it is more than likely we have terrain to suit your desires.
With over 2000 square ski-able miles available out the front door, there is more terrain than one could ski or ride in a lifetime!
Our lodging is all-inclusive. Our facility is not a hotel or motel. It is a beautiful state of the art facility located directly on the waters edge. All of our aircraft are a few steps away from your room eliminating the drive to the heli port each day. Everything is located here on the property. All of our meals are guaranteed to make your mouth water and our local chef specializes in fine cuisine. Within the lodge we also offer wireless Internet access, just in case you are thinking of work while on vacation.
The price one pays for his/her day is based on our heli-hour rate, averages around $975 (for 7-9 runs) $1200 (for 9-12 runs). Most operations sell a vertical package or a 6 run day, which is great however, at PNH it is very common to obtain 6 runs by lunchtime. An average ski day is generally 8-12 runs and allowing you to keep an eye on your heli-time.
History of Points North: About our operation
PNH is the only heli-operation utilizing this portion of the Chugach Mountains. There are more first descents than one could obtain in a 100 lifetimes. Most people believe that Alaska is very extreme place. Its is and can be, however movies and magazines have made it that way. We have over 2000 square ski-able miles of terrain catering to the high intermediate skier or the world-class athlete. Taking care of you and keeping safe is most important. Alaska has something for YOU, this we guarantee!
Points North Heli-Adventures is the only heli-ski operation in Alaska that is all-inclusive. We do not offer you a guaranteed vertical package rate. This is what makes Points North special. Weather in Alaska is too unpredictable to guarantee grand expectations of vertical, yet it is also the weather that makes Alaskan heli-skiing the super bowl of riding. You will get your vertical on fly days for certain!

These mediums are specially formulated to control, enhance, and protect artworks created with Artisan Water Mixable Oils. Offering soap and water cleanup, they're ideal for the painter seeking to avoid the use of hazardous solvents.
Note — Artisan Water Mixable Oil Painting Mediums are not to be used with traditional oil colors. As with traditional oils, it is always best to choose one medium and use it throughout the whole painting.
Fast Drying Medium — This popular medium improves flow and speeds drying time by approximately 50%, allowing layers of paint to be applied more quickly. Boasting an improved formulation that now helps wet the colors better, it smoothes brushwork and increases gloss and transparency, making it excellent for glazing and producing fine detail. It is also resistant to yellowing. When painting in layers, it can be substituted for Artisan Linseed Oil and be combined with water and/or Artisan Thinner to maintain the "fat over lean" rule (each successive layer must have more oil in it than the previous one).
Impasto Medium — This medium thickens Artisan Water Mixable Oils for impasto and texturing and also speeds drying time. Always mix Artisan Impasto Medium thoroughly into colors. For thick impastos, build up the texture in several layers, allowing each layer to dry before applying the next.
Linseed Oil — The main binder in the Artisan Water Mixable Oil Color line and the most commonly used of all the Artisan Mediums, Artisan Linseed Oil reduces the consistency and improves the flow of the paints, while also increasing gloss and transparency. It can be combined with water or Artisan Thinner to maintain the structure of the paint film and can also be used when painting in layers to maintain the "fat over lean" rule (each successive layer must have more oil in it than the previous one).
Painting Medium — This medium thins the consistency of Artisan Water Mixable Oils, improves the flow and wetting of colors, and also aids in fine detail work. It dries slowly to a flexible film and is good for "oiling out" (applying an oil medium to a painting that has sunk, or lost its oil, to the layer underneath).
Safflower Oil — Lighter in color than Artisan Linseed Oil, Artisan Safflower Oil is sometimes used as a binder in paler Artisan Water Mixable Oils to maintain their brightness. If you are painting with a lighter palette, Artisan Safflower Oil may be a preferable choice for reducing paint consistency and for increasing gloss and transparency. Artisan Safflower Oil is slow drying and should not be used under faster drying layers (e.g. Artisan Fast Drying Medium, umbers, etc.).
Stand Oil — A more durable type of Linseed Oil, Stand Oil is partially polymerized by being heated in the absence of oxygen, thereby producing a longer drying time. The benefit of Artisan Water Mixable Stand Oil is that it produces a paler, more flexible film that Artisan Linseed Oil with excellent leveling properties. It is therefore a good glazing medium and can be combined with water or Artisan Thinner for this purpose. It also increases gloss and transparency.
Thinner — As a substitute for water or combined with it, low odor Artisan Thinner is specially formulated to dilute Artisan Water Mixable Oils. It provides a more oily consistency than water and does not form an emulsion with the paint, thereby producing less color change. It may also be combined with Artisan Fast Drying Medium, Artisan Linseed Oil, and Artisan Stand Oil.
Shipping Note — Due to manufacturer distribution restrictions, Winsor & Newton products cannot be shipped to addresses outside of North America.
™ Winsor & Newton is a trademark. ™ Artisan is a trademark.
Note — Artisan Oil Painting Mediums are not to be used with traditional oil colors. As with traditional oils, it is always best to choose one medium and use that throughout the whole painting.

RG58 Cable
Is a specific type of coaxial cable often used for Thin Ethernet (10BASE2) and low-power signal connections. The cable has a characteristic impedance of either 50 or 52. When used for Ethernet, it provides a maximum segment length of 185 meters. Most two-way radio communication systems, such as marine SSB, marine VHF, amateur, police, fire, WLAN Antennas etc., are designed to work with 50 cable. RG-58 cable is commonly used as a generic carrier of signals in physical laboratories, since it is commonly combined with BNC connectors that are common on equipment such as oscilloscopes. However, interconnecting equipment with multiple coax cables can lead to ground loops, which can pick-up 50-60 Hz fields from the AC mains. RG-58 cable can be used for moderately high frequencies. Its signal attenuation depends on the frequency, e.g. from 0.11 dB/m at 50 MHz to 1.4 dB/m at 2 GHz

President Jakaya Kikwete yesterday led hundreds of mourners at the Karimjee Hall in Dar es Salaam to bid farewell to the late Jeremiah Sumari, Arumeru East MP (CCM) who passed away on Thursday.
Sumari died at Muhimbili Referral Hospital of brain cancer. The late MP left for India for medical treatment last month and returned to Tanzania on January 9.
Sumari died at Muhimbili Referral Hospital of brain cancer. The late MP left for India for medical treatment last month and returned to Tanzania on January 9.
Speaker Anne Makinda, speaking on behalf of the Parliament, described Sumari as a great servant and one who always placed the needs of others first. She called on public leaders and citizens at large to cherish that spirit.
"When Sumari stood up to comment on any matter (at parliamentary meetings), there is no doubt you will be convinced," Makinda noted, adding that he was such an eloquent leader, making so much sense in his argument.
Although death always comes with heartbreaking feelings to relatives, Makinda called for the public to consider the positive side of it - reminding humankind of the path that everyone will definitely go through, hence the importance of getting prepared for that journey.
She said every person should diligently fulfill each one's responsibility on earth and uphold good deeds. Makinda said death destiny pretty much depends on what one does while on earth.
"Unfortunately we all don't know how that destiny looks like for nobody who has gone there has come back and reported about the place, but we rely on teachings of God's servants that the place is good and all we have to do is prepare ourselves with good deeds here on earth," elaborated Makinda.
The speaker doesn't believe politics is a 'corny game' arguing "that means no politician will inherit the Kingdom of God, something that would make no body risk vying for political activism and miss the Kingdom of God."
Government representative, Minister of State Prime Minister's Office, Policy, Coordination and National Assembly, William Lukuvi voiced that the public has lost a very important public servant but affirmed that death does not mean the death of his ideas as well.
"Fortunately, as the party (CCM), we have in writing the entire plan of what he was doing and what he planned to do for his constituency, Arumeru East –which means that CCM can promise to fulfill whatever plan the late Sumari had."
The chairman of opposition camp in parliament, Freeman Mbowe (MP), pointed out that the funerals of the two MPs (Sumari and Mtema) which occurred within a short period have demonstrated how Tanzanians can stand together despite their party ideological differences.
"Chadema Central Committee had planned to have a meeting in Zanzibar but have canceled the programme so that we may join our brethren in this time of sorrow. And this should always be the attitude, not only in funerals but in other key national issues," said Mbowe.
Sumari had served in other fields such as Deputy PS in Ministry of Finance, chairman of Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange, a member of Board of Directors, East Africa Development Bank
Sumari's body will be transported by a special flight to Arusha for burial tomorrow at 9am, where about 50 other MPs appointed to represent the rest will leave in the noon. The burial will be on Monday.
Meanwhile, the NCCR- Mageuzi top leaders are expected to meet the president at State House tomorrow to discuss the making of the new constitution, the party's chairman, James Mbatia told The Guardian on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the NCCR- Mageuzi top leaders are expected to meet the president at State House tomorrow to discuss the making of the new constitution, the party's chairman, James Mbatia told The Guardian on Sunday.
Mbatia said the delegation is expected to ask the president to accept using professionals on constitutional matters in the process of writing a new constitution for Tanzania.
"You see, there are basically three leading constitutional lawyers in this country" noted Mbatia "and luckily, our party (NCCR-Mageuzi) has one, Dr Sengondo Mvungi, who is still practicing in the same field. We hope to convince the president on the importance of fully involving these professionals in this crucial matter."
He said one of the aims of starting NCCR-Mageuzi about 20 years ago was to campaign for a new constitution for the country, saying that even the party's name reveals this.
On Friday, NCCR-Mageuzi planned to hold a demonstration against increased power tariffs. The demonstration was scheduled to start at 8.00am from the party's headquarters at Buguruni but it was canceled after president's office called to meet the party leaders said the party chairman, Mbatia.

The U.S. SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors militant forums, says the Islamic State of Iraq issued a statement on militant websites saying Sunday's attacks came in revenge for alleged criminal acts by the Shiite-led government against Sunnis in the Iraqi capital.
The car bombs that exploded within minutes in outdoor markets also wounded more than 100 people. The attacks came amid rising sectarian discord in the country and appeared aimed at shaking the Iraqis' confidence in the Shiite-led government.
Iraq's al-Qaida branch has staged scores of large-scale attacks against Shiite Muslims, which it considers heretics and accuses of being too closely aligned with neighboring Shiite powerhouse Iran.

The time has finally come. Ash vs. Elesa in a Pokémon Gym Battle. Ash tries to think of a strategy and comes up with one. Since Elesa uses Electric-Type Pokémon, and Ground-Type Pokémon beat Electric-Types, Ash has decided to use only his Palpitoad during the battle and leave Pikachu out. Will Ash's strategy work, especially if Elesa's other two Pokémon have no weakness against Ground-types?
- This is the fourth time Ash battled an Electric type Gym Leader. The first three being Lt. Surge, Wattson and Volkner.
- This is also the only time Ash battles an Electric Gym Leader without having a rematch.
- The battle is a bit of a reverse of what happened in the Gym Battle between Ash and Falkner, with Elesa knocking out two of Ash's Pokémon with just Emolga while Ash knocks out two of Elesa's Pokémon back with Pikachu to win.
- Elesa's Emolga's voice sounded much different than Iris'.
- This episode marks the first time Ash battled a Zebstrika and an Emolga other than Bianca battling Iris' Emolga in BW028 and Stephan's Zebstrika in BW042.
- This is the first time in the anime that a gym leader's most powerful Pokémon got knocked out first before it did any real damage. The most powerful of a gym leaders Pokémon is usually knocked out last after it does collateral damage but this episode was different. This may have been due to type advantage as Palpitoad is a dual water and Ground-type and Ground is super-effective against Electric.
- This is the first time Ash switched his team during a Gym Battle.
- Thinking it was easy to beat Elesa, Ash only brought in Palpitoad, the only time he brought in one Pokémon to battle three.
- Ash should've caught Krokorok in the first place in BW020: Dancing With the Ducklett Trio! before he puts him in the Nimbasa City Gym Battle but when he brings Pikachu back in the battle, he decided to battle with spirit instead of battle plans.
- Two of Elesa's Pokemons are out when they hit the wall and make holes in them. The two were Emolga and Tynamo because of Ash's Pikachu.
- This is the second time Ash used Palpitoad, Snivy, and Pikachu in a battle since BW041: Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!, BW042: Cilan Versus Trip, Ash Versus Georgia!, BW043: The Club Battle Hearts of Fury, Emolga Versus Sawk!, and BW044: The Club Battle Finale: A Heroes Outcome! during the tournament battle sponsored by the Pokemon Battle Club in Nimbasa Town.
- The reason why the Driftveil Drawbridge is offline for repairs is because of Team Rocket in BW049: Crisis from the Underground Up!
- Professor Oak's Live Caster: Zorua
- Who's That Pokemon?: Zebstrika (Japan), Tynamo (U.S.)
