It all started with that day, that day when I got my powers. It just was like a flash of light or a sound from a animal.But it wasn't right. It was a powerful energy sourse with emence power. Emence power that I could control if I get struck by it. When I got struck I held on for dear life then after a while it stopped. It was like I was in a tornado for a week then stopping to a halt. After a week or so I started fighting crime and evil. Then one day another energy sourse came. I didn't want my powers to be gone forever so I didn't bother about it. But then just as I got to my house the news just went on. I didn't belive what I saw. A blazing ball of light filled the room. I could not belive my mind on what I saw. TO BE CONTINUED. . . You wouldn't want to miss part 2 The battle!

33 U.S. Code § 1413 - Dumping permit program for dredged material
prev | next
(a) Issuance by Secretary of the Army
Subject to the provisions of subsections (b), (c), and (d) of this section, the Secretary may issue permits, after notice and opportunity for public hearings, for the transportation of dredged material for the purpose of dumping it into ocean waters, where the Secretary determines that the dumping will not unreasonably degrade or endanger human health, welfare, or amenities, or the marine environment, ecological systems, or economic potentialities.
(b) Independent determination of need for dumping, other methods of disposal, and appropriate locations; alternative sites
In making the determination required by subsection (a) of this section, the Secretary shall apply those criteria, established pursuant to section 1412 (a) of this title, relating to the effects of the dumping. Based upon an evaluation of the potential effect of a permit denial on navigation, economic and industrial development, and foreign and domestic commerce of the United States, the Secretary shall make an independent determination as to the need for the dumping. The Secretary shall also make an independent determination as to other possible methods of disposal and as to appropriate locations for the dumping. In considering appropriate locations, he shall, to the maximum extent feasible, utilize the recommended sites designated by the Administrator pursuant to section 1412 (c) of this title. In any case in which the use of a designated site is not feasible, the Secretary may, with the concurrence of the Administrator, select an alternative site. The criteria and factors established in section 1412 (a) of this title relating to site selection shall be used in selecting the alternative site in a manner consistent with the application of such factors and criteria pursuant to section 1412 (c) of this title. Disposal at or in the vicinity of an alternative site shall be limited to a period of not greater than 5 years unless the site is subsequently designated pursuant to section 1412 (c) of this title; except that an alternative site may continue to be used for an additional period of time that shall not exceed 5 years if—
(2) the continued use of the alternative site is necessary to maintain navigation and facilitate interstate or international commerce; and
(c) Concurrence by Administrator
(1) Notification
Prior to issuing a permit to any person under this section, the Secretary shall first notify the Administrator of the Secretary's intention to do so and provide necessary and appropriate information concerning the permit to the Administrator. Within 30 days of receiving such information, the Administrator shall review the information and request any additional information the Administrator deems necessary to evaluate the proposed permit.
(2) Concurrence by Administrator
Within 45 days after receiving from the Secretary all information the Administrator considers to be necessary to evaluate the proposed permit, the Administrator shall, in writing, concur with (either entirely or with conditions) or decline to concur with the determination of the Secretary as to compliance with the criteria, conditions, and restrictions established pursuant to sections 1412 (a) and 1412 (c) of this title relating to the environmental impact of the permit. The Administrator may request one 45-day extension in writing and the Secretary shall grant such request on receipt of the request.
(3) Effect of concurrence
In any case where the Administrator makes a determination to concur (with or without conditions) or to decline to concur within the time period specified in paragraph (2) the determination shall prevail. If the Administrator declines to concur in the determination of the Secretary no permit shall be issued. If the Administrator concurs with conditions the permit shall include such conditions. The Administrator shall state in writing the reasons for declining to concur or for the conditions of the concurrence.
(4) Failure to act
If no written documentation is made by the Administrator within the time period provided for in paragraph (2), the Secretary may issue the permit.
(d) Waiver of requirements
If, in any case, the Secretary finds that, in the disposition of dredged material, there is no economically feasible method or site available other than a dumping site the utilization of which would result in non-compliance with the criteria established pursuant to section 1412 (a) of this title relating to the effects of dumping or with the restrictions established pursuant to section 1412 (c) of this title relating to critical areas, he shall so certify and request a waiver from the Administrator of the specific requirements involved. Within thirty days of the receipt of the waiver request, unless the Administrator finds that the dumping of the material will result in an unacceptably adverse impact on municipal water supplies, shell-fish beds, wildlife, fisheries (including spawning and breeding areas), or recreational areas, he shall grant the waiver.
(e) Federal projects involving dredged material
In connection with Federal projects involving dredged material, the Secretary may, in lieu of the permit procedure, issue regulations which will require the application to such projects of the same criteria, other factors to be evaluated, the same procedures, and the same requirements which apply to the issuance of permits under subsections (a), (b), (c), and (d) of this section and section 1414 (a) and (d) of this title.
Source(Pub. L. 92–532, title I, § 103,Oct. 23, 1972, 86 Stat. 1055; Pub. L. 102–580, title V, §§ 504, 506 (b),Oct. 31, 1992, 106 Stat. 4866, 4869.)

Unless the Administrator grants a waiver pursuant to subsection (d) of this section, the Secretary shall not issue a permit which does not comply with such criteria and with such restrictions."

Darwin Sends Employment Lifeline
'Hope dawns for those who are out of work, as Darwin beckons.' MIAA
Click Here to view large photo
Darwin could be the destination for contractors set adrift by the recent sackings at boat builders in Qld and other states.
A Darwin boat builder has put out a call for retrenched Maritimo Offshore workers to pack up their utes and head for the Top End.
According to Territory Marine GM, Darren Ryan, boat builders, welders, boat fitters, mechanics and general labourers are in short supply in Darwin.
Ryan is one of a number of NT businesses calling for Gold Coasters to fill the gaps.
'We've got permanent work as far as the eye can see but we can't get enough workers because of the mining boom,' he said. 'If these boys are happy to relocate they can pack their utes and come here.'
Ryan's company builds pleasure and commercial boats. When he heard of the recent spate of sackings he wanted to workers know about the opportunities up north.
Maritimo Offshore shed 105 jobs last week due, 200+ jobs were recently lost at Riviera and another 100 at Telwater.
Ryan was quoted as saying Darwin boat builders were losing valuable staff to the mines and had plenty of vacancies available.
Darren Ryan can be reached on (08) 8932 9444 or 0417 036 711.

Could this be sailing's top safety gear?
Captain John Jamieson
, Florida , 11:56 PM Wed GMT
Look over most production sailboats or powerboats today, and you can bet you will see a lack of grab rails. We are often told that we shouldn't sail without loading up on safety equipment like personal flotation devices, safety harnesses, EPIRBs, survival flares, or liferafts. But for some reason, grab rails seem to end up near the bottom of the heap.

(L-R) Museum Educator Annette Seitles and docent-trainees Dr. Carol Weissman and Leslye Gellert look on while Registrar Martin Hanahan shows them our flat file cabinets.
Docent-trainees Linda Schottland, Dr. Carol Weiessman, Leslye Gellert, and Museum Educator Annette Seitles view a Divination Tray from Africa in our art storage room.
Above are photographs of a recent tour that Museum Registrar, Martin Hanahan, gave to our new docent-trainees. Becoming a docent allows one to see behind-the-scenes and day-to-day activities within the museum. Boca Raton Museum of Art staff are very excited about the 2009 docent class. Currently, the docent-candidates are undergoing rigorous training, learning the museum's collections.
To become a docent, one must become a member of the Museum. Docents and members receive the same perks, such as 10% off in the Museum Store, free entry to movies and lectures, the membership magazine, and invitations to openings throughout the year. Besides becoming a member, the only prerequisite is a love of art. Of course, background in the fine arts, art history, teaching, or public speaking can be beneficial as well.
Docent candidates must complete six months of training before they may give tours to the public. Claire Clum, Curator of Education, and Annette Seitles, Museum Educator, teach a course comparable to college-level seminar in order to adequately educate the docents. They talk about the BRMoA collection specifically and also situate the works within broader movements and styles. They teach how to utilize the Socratic method, the correct vocabulary when speaking about visual art, age-appropriate topics, and so on. This period of study and practice builds a knowledgeable staff of docent-trainees, ready to ameliorate our guests' experience.
While the docents are trained in every aspect of our collection, they have the freedom to construct their own tours of the museum, based around a theme of their choosing. The themes can be anything, such as formal elements like the color red, to historical periods like the Abstract Expressionist movement, to theory, like Poststructuralism. If you see a docent in the halls who is not giving a tour, feel free to approach them for an interesting conversation on any number of topics.
If you are interested in becoming a docent, you can contact the Museum Educator Claire Clum. If you have the available time, becoming a docent can add a new dimension to your understanding and outlook of the world.

Dying mother sees son graduate from hospital bed
Special ceremony held three days early
ST. PETERSBURG, FL - It's graduation day for James Hoile, as he proudly puts on his cap and gown.
"It's here, it's happening. But I'm really happy about it," he said.
But this ceremony also comes with much sadness.
Because it's taking place inside a small room at St. Anthony's hospital in St. Petersburg, where his mother Kim is dying of cancer.
"She's an awesome mom, one that anyone could ever dream to have. Back from when I was just this big, playing football to even now," said James.
Kim's been fighting cancer for a year and her family knew she wouldn't be able to attend Monday's graduation at Tropicana Field.
"Seeing the smile that's going to be on her face. It's gonna be awesome," said Kim's husband, TJ.
Friends and family crammed into the limited space for the big moment.
"Congratulations, this is a symbol of your graduation from Pinellas Park high school," principal John Johnston said as he handed James the diploma.
Kim is dealing with a lot of pain, but still found the strength to smile and hold her son's hand tightly.
"I'm hoping that she was comprehending everything, and that's what I'm going to keep in my mind and be able to hold on to," said James.
James plans to walk at the full graduation ceremony Monday. But nothing will beat this day.
James has his diploma -- and shared the moment with his mother.

Mainland premier soccer league champions Simba handed their archrivals Young Africans a terrible if not incredible five-goal comprehensive demolition to wind up the season ceremoniously at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam yesterday.
Troubled Yanga had endured a torrid moment throughout the week heading to the derby as misunderstandings compounded the club leadership.
It was a sweet and memorable revenge for the champions who lost by a lone goal during the first leg tie played at the same venue last year.
Despite the heavy defeat, Yanga played brilliantly during the first half to concede just a goal and looked well on course to pull an equaliser.
The match kicked off with Simba's Ugandan import Emanuel Okwi breaking the jinx to open the floodgates on the very first minute.
Yanga retaliated with aggressive attacks but were denied by profligacy when Simba defenders deployed off side tricks.
The champs proceeded into the dressing rooms with one goal lead as Yanga pondered the best way to come back into the game.
Simba resumed the second half with full steam as they deployed a dazzling display of attaching football much to the amazement of their own fans.
Felix Sunzu scored second goal for Simba nine minutes into the second half after Yanga's stalwart defender Shadrack Nsajigwa roughed up Okwi who was on his way to score.
Yanga defence lost steam and completely collapsed to deploy a rough game that proved costly.
Okwi was Simba's most outstanding striker and gave Yanga defenders the hardest moment of all the matches the dethroned champions played during the season.
The Ugandan successfully negotiated his way past Nsajigwa to score the third goal for his team midway into the second half to extend leading margin.
Simba goalkeeper Juma Kaseja scored the fourth through a penalty after 22 minutes following a foul against Uhuru Suleiman who was brought down on his way to score.
Barely two minutes were later Simba awarded another penalty after Yanga defender brought down Okwi inside the box.
Simba's Rwandan midfielder Patrick Mafisango scored the fifth goal to keep Simba fans in frenzy of celebrations on the stands.
Yanga played the most disorganised game during the second half and one would wonder if the team really had prepared for the match against their bitter rivals.
The loss was Yanga's seventh for the season as the team finished third in the final standings table with 49 points and goal difference of eleven.
Yanga scored 31 for the season and conceded 30 goals.
Yanga's former Serbian coach Kostadin Papic was on the stands when the dethroned champions were being humbled on the pitch.
Yanga's heaviest defeat at the hands of Simba in the premiership was during the 1994 when they conceded 4-1 goals at the Uhuru Stadium. Before that Yanga conceded 6-0 goals during the 1977 premierships season at the same venue.
Yanga's biggest victory against Simba in the league was posted in 1969 as they marched with 5-0 demolition.
Simba: Juma Kaseja, Nassor Masoud, Amir Maftah, Shomary Kapombe, Kelvin Yondan, Patrick Mafisango/ Obadia Mungusa, Uhuru Suleiman, Mwinyi Kazimoto/Jonas Mkude, Felix Sunzu/Edward Christopher, Haruna Moshi and Emmanuel Okwi.
Coach: Milovan Circovic
Yanga: Yaw Berko/Said Mohamed, Shadrack Nsajigwa/Godfrey Taita, Oscar Joshua, Nadir Haroub, Athumani Iddi, Juma Seif, Shamte Ally, Haruna Niyonzima, Davis Mwape/Kenneth Assamoah and Khamis Kiiza.

- Hermione: "It's not going to work... You see this? This is an Age Line. Dumbledore drew it himself...a genius like Dumbledore couldn't possibly be fooled by a dodge as pathetically dim-witted as an Ageing Potion."
- Fred: "Ah, but that's why it's so brilliant!"
- George: "Because it's so pathetically dim-witted."
- — Hermione Granger and Fred and George Weasley on the twins' attempt to fool the Age Line Spell[src]
The Age Line is a spell which creates a line that is impassable by people below or above a set age. The incantation is unknown.
It was used by Albus Dumbledore to stop underage students from placing their names into the Goblet of Fire as potential candidates for the Triwizard Tournament. Subjects who attempt to breach the line are repelled, and grow long, white beards, regardless of gender. The Age Line is impassable even by users of an Ageing Potion, which was proven when Fred and George Weasley attempted to bypass the Age Line to enter the Triwizard Tournament. Thus, it works for calendar age, not physical age. Others affected by the age line were Summers of Hufflepuff and S. Fawcett from Ravenclaw.

After almost two years of modern-day "pen pal" communication via Skype, a number of Keuka College education majors finally met – in person – the Slovakian high school students they previously saw on the computer screen.
This group Field Period included education majors, taught by Dr. Denise Love and Dr. Klaudia Lorinczova, both assistant professors of education, and other Keuka students, including several visual and verbal art majors taught by Melissa Newcomb, assistant professor of art. The Keuka Field Period is a required annual internship or exploratory study of 140 hours.
Seventeen students, two faculty members and two parent chaperones traveled overseas in early June to visit the cities of Prague, Nitra, Bratislava and Vienna. Over 11 days, Newcomb directed students in photographic study of architecture and culture while Lorinczova led an exploration of Slovakian education and other unique social, political and cultural traditions of her home country and its European neighbors. Students had already gone through weeks of "pre-teaching" in advance of the trip, learning from Lorinczova a number of cultural anomalies to expect and reviewing a manual on basic digital photography with Newcomb, as well as gaining a basic understanding of architectural styles such as Baroque, Gothic or Rococo.
A last-minute foot injury kept Love confined at home, but ultimately, she was able to coordinate from the couch, helping the two professors "on the ground" navigate unexpected challenges almost as soon as they cropped up. The first biggie: severe flooding in many portions of Prague – the first stop on the trip –shortly after the group arrived. Love offered advice and assistance with the travel agency as the group moved around Prague and then on to other cities, and communicated with Newcomb and Lorinczova via daily Skype sessions.
All three professors recommended "an anchor" back home, given the benefits gleaned in this experience. The three professors had previously structured the trip to include student reflections in words and images, utilizing online blogs as electronic journals. The blogs proved a saving grace for worried parents back home who heard news reports of the flooding much earlier than the students themselves. And while students did post a few photos of flooded streets and commentary on dealing with nonstop rains, images of cathedrals, statues, gardens, public squares, restaurants and cafes far outnumbered them.
In the words of Sarah Hillman '13, a final, rainy day in Prague was salvaged with a spur-of-the-moment museum tour, where the whole group saw "paintings, sculptures, and other works from Alfons Mucha and Salvador Dali. They were great!" (more…)

Long Term Property Plans
A Long Range Property Planning (LRPP) task group was appointed by the board in September of 2010 with the charge of evaluating all outdoor activity properties owned or operated by the Council. The LRPP was comprised of volunteers, staff, board members and community members. These members reside throughout our council. Individually and as a group, the LRPP members spent hundreds of hours asking for and listening to input, researching facts and options, thoroughly inspecting properties, and most importantly, deliberating on all the factors that go into property planning to ensure a healthy future for the council, the girls it serves, its dedicated volunteers, and the communities that support it.
The LRPP looked in depth at each camp with an eye for the following: program potential, safety of campers, ability to market to girls, ability to market to outside groups, and cost to bring camp up to basic safety standards. An LRPP member presented at each of the Governance Forums held in each of the 10 districts. Enormous effort went into inviting all members of our council to attend, ask questions, and challenge the methodology being used to arrive at these decisions to make the process fully inclusive. Feedback was taken from these meetings and considered prior to the final recommendation that was made at the June 29th Board of Directors meeting.
The LRPP recommended that the council divest itself of the following properties:
In Vermont:
- Wapanacki
- So-Ko-We-Gi
- The Vermont House
In New Hampshire:
- Sunset Valley
- Anne Jackson
The GSGWM Board of Directors voted in favor of this recommendation and instructed our CEO to start the process of selling (or transferring, in the case of So-Ko-We-Gi, which we did not actually own) the aforementioned properties. The decision to divest of Wapanacki, The Vermont House, So-Ko-We-Gi, Sunset Valley and Anne Jackson was not taken lightly. We are aware that there is a tremendous emotional connection that campers have with their camp. All decisions were made with the goal of improving the camping experience for our current and future members. With that in mind the Board of Directors also voted that all net proceeds from the sale of these properties go into a board-designated fund. That fund will be used solely to improve and maintain our program properties.
As part of our ongoing Strategic Learning process, we've discovered that the long-term vitality and success of Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains lies in our commitment to deliver a fun, multi-faceted Leadership Experience that empowers and connects girls. In September 2010 we began a long-range property planning study to ensure that we develop and operate sites and facilities that best support the Girl Scout Leadership Experience. Using resources wisely, we also have to be able to fund and maintain these sites. Our "customers" are girls, so we have to respond to their program needs and wants. These programming decisions will drive the distribution of our resources, including decisions about all of our properties.
The Long-Range Property Task Group (LRPTG) is a representative cross-section of volunteers, staff, board members and community members. Members of the LRPTG are Patricia Mellor, Barbara Barrett, Tracy Gillick and the members of the three sub-task groups.
The LRPTG, broken into three sub-task groups for Market Research, Program Research and Property Research, was charged with:
- Learning about what assets and resources we have
- Focusing on what girls want/need from a programming standpoint
- Aligning what we will do and how we will manage our properties/capital budget
- And then planning the execution with a 3-year action plan to achieve our desired Site Master Plan.
The Long-Range Property Plan, to be completed over the next year, will reflect the collective input of our stakeholders (girls, volunteers, parents, donors, community partners, etc.) and the community.
LRPTG Sub-Task Groups
In early October 2010, the first meetings of the Long Range Property Task Group (LRPTG) sub-task groups began. This was in response to a board resolution that charged the LRPTG "… to develop a property vision that promotes the mission of the organization by including membership and staff, and to research and develop strategies and recommendations for presentation to the Board that may involve property acquisition, development or sale in order to meet the needs and interests of existing and future girls."
Three sub-task groups were formed to help meet this charge: Market Research, Program Research and Property Research Group. Below you will find a brief description of the objective for each sub-task group along with the members of those groups.
Market Research Task Group
- Conduct exploratory research as needed to identify and describe existing and projected jurisdictional socio-economic demographics.
- Describe characteristics of the existing membership, identify, and describe prospective target membership markets.
- Identify girl, parent and troop leader market issues, needs, interests and expectations.
- Research availability for all age levels. Consider delivery methods, locations, costs, demand, past attendance volunteer/staff supports, transportation and other appropriate issues.
- Analyze program attendance, retention and progression in skill building and towards desired outcomes achievement

Bill Wilkes – Community Member: Merrimack, NH
Richard Sharkey – Community Member: Wilton, NH
Program Research Task Group
- Examine program goals, curriculum, progression, equipment and training requirements.
- Examine Girl Scout and competing program opportunities available to girls within the jurisdiction.
- Identify and define the best mix of program offerings and delivery methods, etc. to serve the membership (current and projected) and suggest a preliminary implementation plan.
- Work with the program task group to gain direct feedback from the girls.
- Review attendance, cost factors, progress toward program outcomes
- Identify program delivery sites and alternative sites, and possible collaborations.
- Review findings of the market research group
Sue Donnelly – Board Member: Lebanon, NH, Chair
Claire Noble – Volunteer: Burlington, VT
Brenda Haechen – Volunteer: Keene, NH
Carrie Green – Staff
Robert Erickson – Volunteer: Essex Junction, VT
Property Research Task Group
- Examine and document all council program delivery and administrative sites and measure the adequacy of the facilities to support present and projected program or administrative functions. Consider site utilization, fitness of facility for intended purpose, program potential, availability of alternative facilities, operating costs, revenue and expense streams, subsidies, etc.
- Provide site and facility input to the formation of market research. Review findings of the market and program research groups.
- Examine the condition of council facilities and identify necessary modifications.
- Inventory the existence of and quantify costs to remedy deferred maintenance.
- Assimilate information inputs from all research task groups. Using the facts to create a five year capital improvement plan that identifies needed facilities, or identifies property assets needed to serve the population.
- Identify obsolete facilities and analyze effectiveness of sites meeting programmatic goals.

Birth Injury, Cerebral & Erbs Palsy
Errors performed by health care providers when a mother is giving birth can sometimes result in permanent damage to the infant. A birth injury can result in serious, irreversible conditions such as cerebral palsy and Erb's palsy.
Examples of Birth Injury
Below are some examples of injuries from birth:
- A doctor uses vacuum extraction for too long a period of time in delivery, that could lead to the infant developing cerebral palsy.
- During delivery, the baby's shoulders become caught in the mother's pelvic bone. The resulting condition, and failure to quickly deliver the child, could lead to Erb's palsy.
- Despite steadily increasing fetal heart rate and oxygen levels during delivery, an OB/GYN neglects to realize the baby is in distress, and does not act immediately to ascertain a healthy birth. The baby, deprived of oxygen, could suffer lifelong neurological damage.
Medical Malpractice Lawsuits Stemming from Birth Injuries
If you believe that a child sustained a life-altering injury or died due to actions or negligence during delivery, you may be eligible to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. Awards from these lawsuits may include money to compensate for lifelong medical care, loss of income, as well as mental anguish.
There are many standards that define medical malpractice, and they vary from state to state. One of the main considerations of malpractice litigation is whether the health care provider in question provided the appropriate standard of care. Also, it must be ascertained as to whether failure to provide that standard of care resulted in injury, disability or death.
Contact a birth injury attorney to investigate whether malpractice may have played a role in a permanent condition such as cerebral palsy or Erb's palsy. Because there is a statute of limitations on malpractice claims, it is suggested that you speak with an injury lawyer as soon as possible after the medical incident.

OBJECTIVE Carbohydrate-responsive element–binding protein (ChREBP) is a key transcription factor that mediates the effects of glucose on glycolytic and lipogenic genes in the liver. We have previously reported that liver-specific inhibition of ChREBP prevents hepatic steatosis in ob/ob mice by specifically decreasing lipogenic rates in vivo. To better understand the regulation of ChREBP activity in the liver, we investigated the implication of O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc or O-GlcNAcylation), an important glucose-dependent posttranslational modification playing multiple roles in transcription, protein stabilization, nuclear localization, and signal transduction.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS O-GlcNAcylation is highly dynamic through the action of two enzymes: the O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT), which transfers the monosaccharide to serine/threonine residues on a target protein, and the O-GlcNAcase (OGA), which hydrolyses the sugar. To modulate ChREBPOG in vitro and in vivo, the OGT and OGA enzymes were overexpressed or inhibited via adenoviral approaches in mouse hepatocytes and in the liver of C57BL/6J or obese db/db mice.
RESULTS Our study shows that ChREBP interacts with OGT and is subjected to O-GlcNAcylation in liver cells. O-GlcNAcylation stabilizes the ChREBP protein and increases its transcriptional activity toward its target glycolytic (L-PK) and lipogenic genes (ACC, FAS, and SCD1) when combined with an active glucose flux in vivo. Indeed, OGT overexpression significantly increased ChREBPOG in liver nuclear extracts from fed C57BL/6J mice, leading in turn to enhanced lipogenic gene expression and to excessive hepatic triglyceride deposition. In the livers of hyperglycemic obese db/db mice, ChREBPOG levels were elevated compared with controls. Interestingly, reducing ChREBPOG levels via OGA overexpression decreased lipogenic protein content (ACC, FAS), prevented hepatic steatosis, and improved the lipidic profile of OGA-treated db/db mice.
CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our results reveal that O-GlcNAcylation represents an important novel regulation of ChREBP activity in the liver under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

With Sleep Talk in B/W2, Keldeo can make up for the lacking movepool with RestTalk.
The RestTalk set
Nature: Timid
EVs: uh, I don't know how EVs should work with RestTalk sets. Sorry :P
@: Life Orb/Leftovers
Sleep Talk
Hydro Pump/Surf
Secret Sword/Calm Mind
Once Jellicent is out of the way, Keldeo can push through anything and last a while with Rest and Sleep Talk. Because this set is built to last, Surf becomes the primary STAB move. If you want the power, Hydro Pump will do just fine, but it will limit how much Keldeo can do. Once that's done, you can go with Secret Sword for secondary STAB, or go with a mono-attacking set with Calm Mind.
In any case, the two things that continue to disappoint me about Keldeo is the movepool and ability. It could also be those stats in a way. Shutting this guy down is ridiculously easy. The worst part is that in B/W2, it will be obvious of whether or not Keldeo will be carrying Secret Sword because of that form change (which I personally find kind of ugly). Keldeo's already easy to predict, and that stupid resolution form makes it even easier. Any surprise factor attempted with a physical set is doomed to fail because it probably won't be running Secret Sword. When I heard about the resolution form, I hoped it was going to give Keldeo something to add to its special movepool. Keldeo's pretty bad. That's all there is to it.
I claim Buizel.
Other options
Covet steals item, which is crucial sometimes. Not to mention a fitting move, for a My Little Pony.
Endeavor to make things die with cuteness.
Bounce, though not always a good option, can force a switch and paralize. Another Vere dignum et ustum est moment.
Work up for mixed, though with resolution form gone, it might be obvious.
Of course Gamefreak would give it moves a My Little Pony would use. Why not splash while we're at it?
Apparently, I can't claim Larvesta. But who cares?
It's still the cutest bug eva!
I am The Grovyle, that friend in a high place.
The craziest battle I ever had- Toxic spikes supported baton passing team, with a Splashing Wailord. And won. You have to try it!
If the My Little Pony joke is going to be used it should at least be My Little Kelpie or Kelpie Pie=p(Kelpie is an ancient water horse)

Keldeo shares its Water/Fighting type with only one other Pokemon, Poliwrath, but has much more over the muscular tadpole. It has a much higher offensive stat in its special attack stat, and can effectively run a mixed set without giving up power by using its signature move, Secret Sword, which comes off its above average base 129 Special Attack, but deals physical damage.
Justified: This is probably the biggest thing about Keldeo that I see is redundant. Keldeo only has a base 72 attack stat -- too low for it to abuse Justified, so it's next to useless.
Calm Mind
Item: Life Orb
Nature: Timid
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
- Hydro Pump
- Secret Sword
- Hidden Power Electric / Ice
- Calm Mind
Basic Offensive set that aims to sweep through unprepared teams. Hydro Pump is Keldeo's most Powerful move, being able to OHKO bulky Scizor after a Calm Mind and OHKO specially defensive Jirachi after 2 CMs. Secret Sword is what makes Keldeo even harder to switch into. It acts like a Fighting-typed Psyshock or Psystrike. For example, it guarantees a OHKO on Blissey and Chansey after a Calm Mind. Keldeo is one of the few Water-types that does not learn Ice Beam. Keldeo can get past this by using Hidden Power Ice. However, Hidden Power Electric is generally recommended, as it hits both flying types that Hidden Power Ice would hit, and opposing water types that wall Keldeo otherwise like Slowbro, Slowking, and Tentacruel.
Other Options
A Swords Dance set with Aqua Tail, Close Combat, and X-Scissor with Aqua Jet and Sacred Sword as other options is gimmicky at best, as Keldeo has only a base 72 Attack stat.
Work Up can allow Keldeo to hit with both Special and Physical attacks, but the loss in power due to splitting EVs is considerable.
Roserade is probably your best bet. It resists everything Keldeo commonly carries bar Hidden Power Ice. Venusaur is another option, but Keldeo is usually paired with rain, so Venusaur can't function as well as it needs sun to outspeed Keldeo. Slowking, although rare, can potentially wall Keldeo even better than Roserade, as the standard 252 HP / 56 SpD Slowking can survive even a +2 Hidden Power Ghost or Electric and KO the water horse with Psychic or Psyshock.

DW Pokemon I can offer:
I will do everything in my power to not make a my little pony joke.
While Hydro Pump will decimate anything that doesnt resist or absorb it, Scald should always be considered as the Water STAB. Despite the difference in power, Scald will still be useful because as soon as you use Calm Mind, your opponent will switch in a physical attacker to hit you nonboosting defense. Stick to Hydro Pump for Choice sets though.

Landcover of Georgia
Landcover Database
A landcover database for the state of Georgia was created using Landsat satellite imagery from 1988 through 1990. Fifteen classes of landcover, including wetlands, were derived from the imagery at a resolution of 100 feet and an accuracy level of 85%. The database has been distributed to local governments for use in planning, and is available from the Georgia GIS Clearinghouse. A higher-resolution graphic image of the database is available at the website of the Center for Spatial Analysis Technology at Georgia Tech.
Available through the Georgia Geologic Survey (404)657-6127 are two products derived from this database. Project Report 26 (1996) is a summary of landcover statistics by county. A 1:633,600-scale large-format map titled "Landcover of Georgia" was published at the same time and is also available.
