It makes me sick to still be hearing about Hanoi Jane and her Viet Nam agenda. I wish the Beech would disappear.
This will have more of a positive effect on
America than a negative. This just gives millions of younger Americans a dark glimpse into the lefts actions of the 60s, something they would not have been able to see if the old dinosaurs stayed silent and let the MSM handle their phony legacy. This jerky, unfocused, confusing, badly timed anti-war movement helps create patriotism, it adds just the right amount of opposition to help people take a stand rather than just being apathetically pro U.S.
You are both absolutely right.
Is John Kerry going to attend too?
...once a urinal sticker, always a urinal sticker.
No, but Susan Kennedy will probably be there.
It'll be the usual boring "marin" crapola. Half of Ross will show up wearing their "I support Tookie" buttons...
Host Committee for this evening: ... Medea Benjamin...
Sponsors: Be The Media, DFA-Marin, Global Exchange, Iraq Veterans Against the War, MMOB, with LeaveMyChildAlone.org, San Francisco Veterans for Peace
Yes, agreed. Jane Fonda said she "apologized" for her earlier behavior, but what she said, and ONLY what she said was that she was "sorry/regretted that (her behaviors/actions) offended anyone."
She never said she retracted her actions or statements but only that she regretted that anyone took offense at anything she'd done or opined.
Hardly an apology. Thus, she's still lying. She's continuing to avoid responsibility for what she said, did and promoted. Probably still is promoting, given her ongoing extreme liberalism. Last I read about her she said she was "born again" as a "Christian", was "a feminist Christian" and was "still looking for a home church" to join/affiliate with.
Thus, she's still lost in Leftist Land, although I wish her the best in her spiritual search. I think she's desirous of Christianity but I doubt from what she's said about her experience that she has undergone a sincere conversion. Moreorless sounds to me that she's wearing Christianity like another label.
Clearly their intention is to begin some new movement to undermine morale of our troops and get them to start running off to Canada. They seem to forget we've an all-volunteer military.
I think you make a good point.
Hanoi Jane seems to have forgotten 9/11/01. The day America was attacked right in the Wall Street area. The day 3,000 folks lost their lives. She seems to have forgotten the American heroes that day that died in a Pennslyvania field and other Americans who lost their lives at the Pentagon.
a film about the thousands of GIs whose courageous rebellion helped end the war in Vietnam.
Yeah Right.
Should have hung her years ago.
Hanoi Jane should of been tried for treason and hanged.
I hope you rot in some communist hell you swine!

I think Grace lies is So Cal now, she split town about 12 years ago, before I moved out here. Her house in Mill Valley went up in an accidental grass fire and she went back on the sauce. A couple months later, she nearly had her head blown off by the Sheriff's Dept. for being drunk and weilding a shotgun, which she was firing into the air. I saw Maria at Sweetwater Saloon circa 1997 or 98, she was digging this guitarist who I went to listen to. She was on the Bob Dylan documentary talking about Mike Bloomfield (another Mill Valley resident until he OD'd) and the 1965 Newport Festival. Now she's out supporting the local traitor groups.
The local rag's perspective:
An opposing view:
Congrats to Marooned for continuing to expose these traitors.
Thanks for the heads up on local "lore" and "celebrities". I lived in Mill Valley for a while: I didn't like it. I was there for the "great floods". lol.
By the way, did you comment on the thread about my father-in-law last year re: the Peoples Temple? I think I remember posting back & forth.
"Anyone waging war with American troops might want to listen carefully to the largely untold story of David Zeiger's new documentary..."--Los Angeles Times
Why? More of Michael Moore-type lies, eh?
Who do they think they're kidding? Everyone knows Hanoi Jane is a traitor! She should've been shot years ago.
Might as well have been an anti-American rally.
How do these people get away with these traitorous deeds?
Wow...huge movement.
also refutes the myth that GIs came home to a public that spat on them.
Off to calm down now. Thank you for those links.
Thank you for the link to Marooned In Marin's blog. As a Mill Valley escapee, it pleases me greatly to find someone willing to hammer the liberals the way he/she does.
My pleasure!
In re flooding in Marin. Weather and conditions are so constant, it's really quite something when "nature" acts up in Marin!:) In early 80s, lost a car in the Sausalito mud-slide, later, lost another car while undergoing repairs at "Mellow Motors" (Greenbrae/Kentfield) (lol) due a "tidal surge". Oh, the Drama!
She makes me sick to my stomach.
Grace Slick (apparently) supports our troops. She did a benefit concert a while back and also donated proceeds from her artwork to a Support our Soldiers fund of some sort.
The Sweetwater..grin. Memories...
Yes, stratman1969, we did have a conversation. How is your father-in-law? I'm glad to see you again.
Grace Slick. Hmm. Medea Benjamin alleges to support our soldiers too. In fact, here in North Carolina, Media and her "support our troops" pals have set up locations around Fort Bragg for soldiers who wish to come and essentially talk about how they'd like to frag our military in Iraq.
She never did anything like that. Everything I read suggests she is sincerely supportive. And she's said nothing for or against the war either way.
Good for her! I'm glad she moved out of Mill Valley.

Cities Awarded for Innovations in American Government
Turner, Laura, Nation's Cities Weekly
A groundbreaking initiative to halt the impact of global warming, one of the nation's most sophisticated information systems, and an anti-drug strategy that offers offenders help in finding employment have won top honors this year in the Innovations in American Government Awards program administered by Harvard University's Roy and Lila Ash Institute for Democratic Governance and Innovation.
Seattle's citywide Climate Protection Initiative, Chicago's Citizen and Law Enforcement Analysis and Reporting (CLEAR) system and High Point, North Carolina's Overt Drug Market Strategy received $100,000 grants to support the sharing of their best practices with other jurisdictions.
Florida's Automated Community Connection to Economic Self-Sufficiency (ACCESS) and King County, Washington's Electronic Court Records program round out this year's honorees.
The awards were presented at a gala 20th anniversary dinner sponsored by NLC Corporate Partner IBM. The event launched a year-long celebration that will include conferences, meetings and research activities.
Seattle has reigned in sprawl with smart growth policies, one of a number of programs that have reduced carbon dioxide emissions and fossil fuel consumption. Public works department vehicles and regional buses now run on biodiesel fuels
The municipally owned electric utility has undertaken alternative energy investment programs and encouraged cruise ships to plug into the city's climate-neutral electric supply while docked in Elliott Bay.
By streamlining the administrative side of police work, thereby freeing Chicago officers to spend more time on the street, CLEAR has added the equivalent of 700 officers to the force, according to department estimates.
Built by department members, CLEAR is credited as the primary factor in the city's decreasing crime rates. The system encourages civic participation in deterring crime; citizens can submit crime tips on-line and access crime mapping information.
High Point community leaders publicly confront street-level drug dealers and offer viable lifestyle alternatives. Neighborhood support organizations then help them obtain jobs, transportation, food and shelter.
The law enforcement/community partnership has brought a 35 percent decrease in violent crime in neighborhoods formerly crippled by the drug trade. Businesses are returning to the area and residents can now safety walk the streets.
ACCESS Florida automates the process of applying for public assistance benefits such as food stamps and Medicaid. The Department of Children and Families reports $83 million in annual cost savings despite a 600,000 increase in benefit applicants over the last four years.
King County's Electronic Court Records program designates the electronic document as the official case record and offers 24-hour, simultaneous desktop access to judges, clerks, attorneys and the public.
"These programs demonstrate that government on all levels can achieve scalable solutions to pressing global issues," said Stephen Goldsmith, the former Indianapolis mayor who directs the Innovations program at Harvard's John E Kennedy School of Government.
The winning programs were chosen from nearly 1,000 applicants. Fifty semi-finalists were named in March. Eighteen finalists were chosen in April to make presentations before a selection committee chaired by Kennedy School Professor of Public Service David Gergen.
Federal, state, local, tribal and territorial programs in all policy areas are eligible to apply Applicants are judged on their novelty, effectiveness in achieving tangible results, success in addressing a problem of public concern, and transferability to other jurisdictions or policy areas.
The Innovations Awards were launched in 1985 by the Ford Foundation, which in 2001 endowed the program in perpetuity.

This document will be updated as time goes on. It is a repository for questions and answers related to analyses posted on my blog comparing vulnerability counts, days-of-risk and workload vulnerability indices for Windows and Linux distributions. If you have more questions, post them as comments and I'll update with an answer as appropriate.
Best Regards ~ Jeff
Q1. Why is there a difference in "vulnerability fix events" and "unique vulnerabilities fixed" – what are they and what does that mean?
A unique vulnerability is just what it sounds like, typically represented by a unique CVE identifier (e.g. CVE-2006-0023). A "vulnerability fix event"
is when a patch is released that fixes a vulnerability. There can be multiple fix events for a vulnerability when a vendor does not fix all instances
on the same day. For example, Red Hat fixed CVE-2005-3625, a remote-high vulnerability in the 'cups' packages on 1/11/2006 and later fixed the same
vulnerability in the 'tetex' packages on 1/19/2006. This results in 1 unique vulnerability, but 2 fix events.
Q2. How do you treat multiple fix events in computing Days of Risk (DoR)?
The calculation of Days of Risk (DoR) treats a vulnerability as unfixed in a software product as long as one instance is
still unfixed. Therefore, simply using the last fix to establish the Days of Risk for a vulnerability is the full DoR for that vulnerability. However,
there is still an issue for the case where a customer may have (to use the example from Q1) 'cups' deployed on a server, but not 'tetex'. The only way
to really handle that case is to study the set of vulnerabilities that apply to a particular instance of a server.
Here is an example using CVE-2005-3625, from Q1 above, which has 44 DoR for Red Hat EL 4. Note that there are two fixes for this vulnrability, one 36 days
after disclosure for 'cups' and one 44 days after disclosure for 'tetex'. This example argues strongly for fixing all instances as soon as possible,
if not possible to fix on the same day.
Q3. What is the workload vulnerability index (wvi) and how is it calculated?
The workload vulnerability index (wvi) is defined by NIST at http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?workloadindex as
((number of high severity vulnerabilities published within the last 30 days) +
(number of medium severity vulnerabilities published within the last 30 days/5) +
(number of low severity vulnerabilities published within the last 30 days/20)) / 30
Rather than 30 days, I use the days in a given month or period (e.g. 28 in February)
WVI as a security quality metric (my term) came to my knowledge when a variation of it was used by Mark Cox in "Risk Report: A Year of Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 4″ (http://www.redhat.com/magazine/017mar06/features/riskreport/). Mark chose to use his own rating system rather than the ratings assigned by NIST.
I use the NIST ratings and formula.
Q4. Why do you use the NIST severity ratings rather than vendor ratings?
One might argue that though the vendor rating definitions are very similar, since different sets of people are applying them, they many not be applied
in a consistent manner by each vendor. That is a problem. In order to have a metric based upon a more independent source of ratings, I've chosen to use
the NIST ratings as they are applied equally well (or badly) across multiple vendors by NIST, enabling IMO a more objective comparison.
Q5. Would results be vastly different if you used vendor ratings instead?
They could be, but my own observation is that over time, they provide similar *relative* comparisons. That would not have to be, for a couple of reasons.
Vendors could apply the ratings differently. Also, vendors take into account their own architectural or configuration knowledge, which may lessen an
assigned rating. A good example of this is when Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003 (WS2003) are both affected by the same vulnerability, but
because of architectural protections (e.g. NX flag, enhanced security configuration), the vulnerability is less severe on WS2003. By using the
NIST ratings here, the metics will typically reflect the 'worst case' rating and WS2003 would not get the benefit of a lesser rating. Similar instances
can be found for Red Hat, typically where a "High, Remote" vulnerability is rated less than "Critical" by Red Hat.
Q6. Why do the Monthly numbers not always add up to be the same as the totals for the period?
When a vendor fixes a vulnerablity in one month and then fixes it in another component in another month, it is counted each time. However, when you
consolidate across the entire period, multiple fix events consolidate, which throws off the summaries. See Q2 about multiple fix events for more info.

Israeli arms exports take dramatic hit amid growing boycott campaign
The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement has been running highly visible campaigns against military trade with Israel that have seen 12 banks and pension funds exclude Israeli arms company Elbit Systems from their investment portfolio. Israeli owned arms factories have been blockaded, and a growing number of political parties and trade unions have called for an end to military ties with Israel.
The governments of Norway and Turkey have both announced military embargo policies against Israel in recent years.
Mahmoud Nawajaa, general coordinator with the Palestinian BDS National Committee, the largest Palestinian civil society coalition that leads the BDS movement, said:
"Israeli military companies market their products on the basis of their successful use in Israel's massacres of Palestinian and Lebanese civilians, yet it now seems that growing public awareness of and opposition to Israel's war crimes are starting to hit Israel's military exports."
Continue reading..
Also don't miss the new briefing published by the BDS Movement on military cooperation and trade of Israeli weapons, tools of repression against the ongoing Palestinian protests. The military trade is at the heart of Israeli oppression: find out more on the military companies and the complicit international institutions, and on the campaigns that work against these and the military aid to Israel.
Elbit, one of the most iconic accomplices of Israeli violations of International law and a notorious war profiteer, has already applied with at least 6 projects to Horizon 2020. One of its aims is to develop is Laser Gated Imaging (LGI) technology, a dual-use technology employed in military applications, and is likely to be used in the maintenance of the Wall, settlements and/or military technology.
Israel is planning to forcibly relocate some 27,000 Bedouin living in 46 communities Area C in the occupied West Bank to three 'relocation' townships in order to prepare Area C (over 60% of the West Bank) for final annexation.
This factsheet gives the key data, an analysis on the political background and impact, ongoing Palestinian resistance to it and ideas on how you can help to stop this ethnic cleansing policy.
Wandering Raven has published an excellent summary of the information publicly available on the use of drones – in particular Elbit drones Hermes 450 and Hermes 900 – during the Gaza massacre this July/August. The testimonies about use and development of drones include the Israeli defense minister, military commanders and news outlets.
The Civic Coalition for Palestinian Rights in Jerusalem (CCPRJ) and the Palestinian Human Rights Organisations Council (PHROC) have released a new policy paper on the dangers of decontextualising East Jerusalem and urge the international community to address Israel's responsibility as an Occupying Power.
Eight year after the campaigning efforts against the Israeli military corporation Elbit Systems started, the struggle to Stop Elbit on the rise again. This document presents:
A timeline of successes.
On 10th Anniversary of Historic ruling against Israel's Wall, Israel bombs Gaza: at the UN, 86 top legal experts urge UN and third-state action, protests continue in Palestine, worldwide events to stop Israeli impunity.
See the letter in: English - Spanish - Portuguese.
The Civic Coalition for Palestinian Rights in Jerusalem and the Birzeit University Institute of Law are pleased to announce release of the "Guidelines for Advocating for Palestinian Rights in conformity with International Law". Tthis new advocacy tool is an outcome document of the conference "Options and Strategies of International Law for the Palestinian People" held at the Birzeit University Institute of Law in May 2013.
The 10 page report summarizes the basics of human rights obligations and standards for business as relevant to the context of Palestine. We have collected key references from the decision of the International Court of Justice on the legal consequences of the construction of the Wall, the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the UN Global Compact, the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises as well as independent analysts.
The Civic Coalition for Palestinian Rights in Jerusalem has released a legal briefing on the application of the law in occupied East Jerusalem and prospects of judicial and political struggle. The Absentees' Property Law (1950) is one of Israel's major legal instruments for seizing Palestinian property.
Stop the Wall Campaign and the Palestinian Federation in Brazil - FEPAL have today released a report on the Bilateral Cooperation in Research and Industrial Development between Brazil and Israel. (See below.)
We argue that beyond legitimizing and sustaining Israeli policies, the cooperation program risks to recognize and/or directly aid and assist the construction of the Wall and the settlement enterprise and the maintenance of the situation created by them as well as other Israeli violations of peremptory norms.
Various events were held throughout the Occupied Territories in the West Bank to commemorate the 37th anniversary of the glorious Land Day. Stop the Wall has implemented a number of group activities in these territories; such as the lands which are threatened by confiscation and which are subject to continuous attacks by the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF).
"The popular movement to strengthen the resilience of the population in areas targeted by the Israeli Occupation Forces, and to build grassroots actions and international solidarity in order to confront the Israeli occupation, the settlement project and their implications."
All major Palestinian farmers organizations have issued a call to end international trade with Israeli agribusiness and have also published this briefing entitled Farming Injustice. Farming Injustice details the systematic destruction of Palestinian agriculture by Israel and the role played by international trade with Israeli agribusinesses. To download the briefing, click here.
What is a World Social Forum event?
World Social Forum events are open, self-organized meeting spaces where social movements, networks, NGOs and other civil society organizations come together to develop their thinking, debate ideas democratically, formulate proposals, share their experiences freely and network for effective action. For the Charter of Principles of the WSF process, see: http://www.forumsocialmundial.org.br/main.php?id_menu=4&cd_language=2
Al-Haq's Exploring the Illegality of 'Land Swap' Agreements under Occupation examines the legal implications of the conclusion of 'land swap' agreements between Israel and the Palestinian representatives whilst the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip is ongoing.
The Apartheid Wall has been deemed illegal by the International Court of Justice, yet the international community has done nothing to halt its encroachment on Palestinian land. Palestinian workers and farmers have been the most effected by the ongoing construction of the wall, thus we reach out to trade unions, invoking the best practices of trade union solidarity and internationalism under the tried and true union slogan of 'an injury to one is an injury to all!'.

Interpol's Red Notices Used by Some to Pursue Political Dissenters, Opponents
|Libby Lewis
|July 25th 2011
iWatch News/ICIJ
When Iranian political activist Rasoul Mazrae sought shelter from his own government, he fled, headed for Norway via Syria.
He was followed by a petition from Iranian officials that Interpol, the international police agency, list him as a fugitive. Despite the United Nations recognizing him as a political refugee , the same Syrian government that today is cracking down on its own dissidents used that Interpol alert to deport Mazrae to Iran in 2006.
Mazrae was jailed for two years. His family told a UN rapporteur he was tortured to the point of paralysis, had blood in his urine, and lost all of his teeth.
Mazrae was sentenced to death, and human rights observers lost track of him. "We are not aware that his death penalty has been carried out, but we cannot be absolutely sure,†said James Lynch of Amnesty International.
What Syria and Iran used to go after Mazrae was an Interpol "Red Notice.†This system of notices, little known outside legal circles, is being exploited for political purposes by some of the 188 member nations that belong to the 88-year-old international police cooperation agency.
Interpol's primary purpose is to help police hunt down murderers and war criminals, child sex offenders, and wildlife poachers. But a five-month investigation shows a little-known side to Interpol's work: In cases from countries such as Iran, Russia, Venezuela, and Tunisia, Interpol Red Notices are not only being used for legitimate law enforcement purposes, but to round up political opponents of notorious regimes.
For countries that want to abuse Interpol, "it's a way to extend their arm to harass opponents—political or economic,†said Kyle Parker , policy director of the U.S. Helsinki Commission, a human rights body of the U.S. Congress.
An analysis of a snapshot of Interpol's Red Notices, published on December 10, 2010, includes 7,622 Red Notices issued at the request of 145 countries. About a quarter of those were from countries with severe restrictions on political rights and civil liberties. About half were from nations deemed corrupt by international transparency observers.
The Islamic regime of Iran's use of Interpol stands out not just because of the Mazrae episode, but also because of people like Shahram Homayoun.
He fled Iran in 1992 after the mullahs took over. After he settled in Los Angeles, Homayoun started a satellite TV station to beam a message of civil resistance into the homes of Iranians.
His audience has scribbled his slogan in Farsi, Ma Hastim—"We Existâ€â€"on walls and bridges around the country. In 2009, he called on Iranians to gather at the tomb of the ancient Persian ruler Cyrus the Great. That's all. Just show up at his tomb, like a flash mob. That fall, he prompted Iranians to show up at their local bakery every Thursday and ask for bread.
He's definitely a troublemaker.
"Apparently, the Interpol thinks so too,†Homayoun said, laughing at a reporter's quip. In December 2009, Iran charged him with inciting "terrorism against the Islamic regime such as writing slogans [on walls] and resisting the security forces,†and, at Iran's request, Interpol issued a Red Notice and put Homayoun on its global most-wanted list.
Now officially an Interpol fugitive because of the Red Notice, Homayoun can't leave the United States. He'll probably never again see his parents in Iran. Fortunately for Homayoun, the U.S. won't arrest him, let alone send him to Iran.
How the System Works
Interpol Red Notices originate from police in member countries who send them as domestic arrest notices. Interpol then generally sends them out as global Red Notices. The notices allow police in other countries to arrest suspects for extradition.
The agency operates a closed communications system linking police via vast international databases. Interpol works to raise police standards with training in forensics and investigations. It plays an essential and celebrated role in fostering international cooperation. Its current chief is Ron Noble, a former U.S. federal prosecutor and oft-mentioned candidate to one-day lead the FBI. Noble has served as chief of the Secret Service, U.S. Customs and the bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.
Interpol's member nations span from democracies to dictatorships. Iran and Libya are members. Their requests to Interpol are treated the same as those from democracies like Canada, Britain, or France.
In theory, Interpol cannot get involved in "any intervention or activities of a political, military, religious or racial character,†according to its constitution.
Interpol's chief lawyer, Joël Sollier, said the agency works hard to ferret out cases chiefly motivated by politics, rather than crime. "If we don't,†he said, "we are dead.â€
International cooperation is based on trust. If Interpol is seen as political, Sollier said, it loses credibility.
But there's no way to publicly determine how often Interpol catches politically motivated cases. Here's why:
Interpol, the world's largest international police organization:
- Isn't transparent. It doesn't have to share any data with anyone, other than its own police members, and its own appeals body. Its operations are mostly opaque, in the name of protecting sovereign law enforcement information. The statistics it publishes don't reveal how often it finds cases are political, or when its power has been abused.
- Isn't accountable to any outside court or body. That's because Interpol isn't a creature of governments. It's more like a huge, private police club.
- And Interpol is putting more power into the hands of national police forces—partly to save time and money.
Critics of Interpol—lawyers who've dealt with it and human rights observers—say Interpol's workings make it vulnerable to abuse by countries that target people for political reasons.
And, they say, countries use Interpol's Red Notices against their enemies because it's a terrific weapon. International banks will close accounts. If subjects cross some borders, they can wind up locked up for months with no recourse, or sent back to the country pursuing them.
"It's not like fighting a criminal charge,†said the U.S. Helsinki Commission's Kyle Parker, who has studied how Russia uses Interpol.
"A Red Notice can be even more effective than the judicial system—with none of the safeguards … It doesn't prosecute you; it persecutes you.â€
Interpol says it is constantly working to make its system better. But its chief lawyer Joël Sollier acknowledged Interpol has limits.
"You receive something from a country where human rights are not respected … where the independence of the judiciary is far from perfect … You never know,†he said. "I would love to have only requests from Switzerland, you know? It's not the case. The world is not like that.â€
Nearly half of published Red Notices in the snapshot were from countries in Transparency International's index of countries listed as most corrupt on its global corruption index . It measures perceptions of corruption, including in law enforcement and the judicial system. Those countries include Honduras, Albania, Russia, Belarus, Argentina, Azerbaijan, Pakistan, Ukraine, Vietnam, Paraguay, Tajikistan, Venezuela, Libya, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Iraq, and Iran.
More than 2,200 of the published Red Notices were from countries listed as providing no political rights or civil liberties by the independent non-governmental organization Freedom House. These include Russia and Belarus—the fourth and fifth most frequent sources of public Red Notices in the snapshot.
Among the top 30 countries requesting public Red Notices were Azerbaijan, the United Arab Emirates, China, Rwanda, Vietnam, Tajikistan, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Iraq, and Iran.
So what measures does Interpol take to prevent political abuse? And how often does it catch problems?
There's no way to find out how often.
Interpol Isn't Saying
Interpol won't share any figures on the number of Red Notice requests it rejects because of political reasons—as it did, for instance, when Ecuador asked Interpol to list Colombia's defense minister for his role in a raid on Colombian rebels inside Ecuador.
Interpol's press officer, Rachael Billington, insisted Interpol isn't keeping secrets. She said it's just not possible to determine how many political cases there are in Interpol's databases.
"What may appear initially to be an Article 3 [a political case] may eventually be assessed as complying with Interpol's rules and regulations,†Billington wrote. "Similarly, a Red Notice request may be refused for reasons entirely unrelated to Article 3, for example [the local police member] has failed to provide the necessary information required to issue a Red Notice, such as details of the arrest warrant, or not enough data has been included.â€
Yet Interpol has guidelines of practice for dealing with political cases that are chock-full of "real-life examples†of how Interpol has dealt with them.
For instance, in one of many cases cited by Interpol's practice guidelines, Interpol rejected a Red Notice request by police in one unnamed country that had charged a person from another country with espionage.
"It was concluded the charge and facts provided were of a purely political nature,†Interpol wrote.
Interpol did not provide any indication or estimate of how many cases it deals with that are political in nature. The only figure its press office would provide is that roughly 3 percent of its cases are referred to Interpol's lawyers for review.
That means there's no way to tell how often, for instance, Interpol reverses itself on Red Notices it has published because of political concerns.
That is just what has happened with Venezuela.
In recent months, Interpol has blocked more than two dozen published Red Notices obtained by Hugo Chavez's government—against bankers and former political leaders who allege they're political targets of Chavez.
One of them is Manuel Rosales, who lost to Chavez in the 2006 presidential election and has been a leading opponent of Chavez. Interpol put him on its most-wanted fugitive list in 2009—after Rosales sought, and later won, political asylum in Peru.
Since then Rosales has been quietly scrubbed from Interpol's public website.
Another is Nelson Mezerhane, former owner of Banco Federal and former owner of the opposition news channel Globovisión.
Interpol is now vetting every request from Venezuela more closely.
So how often do countries get away with abusing Interpol with political cases?
Billy Hawkes heads Interpol's appeals body, which it handles complaints from people on Interpol's fugitives list who say they are targets of political prosecutions.
He said the number of abuses that come to light is low, relative to the thousands of Red Notices Interpol issues each year.
For instance, he said only 21 of the 215 complaints filed in 2009 with Interpol's appeals body—called the Commission for the Control of Interpol's Files—specifically claimed they were being targeted because of politics.
But not every possible abuse ends in a complaint. Homayoun, the Iranian satellite television owner, for instance, had not filed a complaint with Interpol's appeals body as of press time.
Cases Against Dissidents
In the public Red Notice database, published reports, court documents, and interviews with lawyers and other experts in Interpol's process found at least 17 countries in the last five years have used the agency to go after dissidents or political opponents, economic targets, or environmental activists.
Among the cases:
- Sri Lanka used Interpol to go after the owner of a website that publishes articles critical of the government. The government charged him with counterfeiting and forgery—years after he had left the country—and only after it had failed to ban his website inside Sri Lanka.
- China used Interpol to target Uighur political leader Dolkun Isa, whom Germany had designated as a political refugee.
- Pakistan used Interpol to list the late former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto as a fugitive on corruption charges—then cancelled the Red Notice after she met for political talks with former military leader Pervez Musharraf.
- Iran has used Interpol to go after at least a dozen political dissidents who have been living in Sweden and other European countries for years—all of them political refugees.
- Tunisia's former regime used Interpol to pursue members of the Islamic opposition party Al Nahda—some simply for belonging to the banned party.
- Bahrain used Interpol to list Shia opposition leader Hassan Mushaima on terrorism charges. During the recent Arab protests, Mushaima was arrested in Lebanon on the Interpol notice—until human rights groups protested. The government dropped the charges as part of a peace offering with opponents and let Mushaima return to Bahrain—then arrested him on his return. An Arab news agency reported in mid-April that Bahrain had placed Mushaima in a military hospital "because of the deterioration of his health and hunger strike.â€
- Russia has used Interpol to pursue at least a dozen business people linked to Vladimir Putin's political opponent and oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky—and his former oil business, Yukos. Many of them have received political asylum, based on Russia's pursuit, or a judge has deemed their cases "politically motivated†and refused to extradite them.
One of them is Ilya Katsnelson, a Russian-born U.S. citizen whose shipping company did business with a Russian company related to Yukos. In its grab for Yukos, Russia charged Katsnelson with tax evasion, fraud, and money-laundering—involving the Russian company that he didn't own, manage, or have any influence over.
Russia has used Interpol to pursue him for five years.
Because of that, Katsnelson spent 50 days in a maximum security German prison after he tripped the Interpol alert.
Both Denmark and Germany have reviewed Russia's case against him and refused to extradite him to Russia. After its review, Germany sent him home from prison with an armed escort. "We have to protect you from the Russians,†he recalled the Germans telling him.
A British magistrate found Russia's case against his business partner to be "likely politically motivated.â€
Interpol's Political Dance
Interpol won't talk about specific cases or countries. But its officials say their job is complicated in cases where politics mingle with allegations of crime.
In the case of a coup, for instance, a new regime indicts the ousted leaders for corruption. Politically motivated, right?
Not always, said Interpol's chief lawyer Joël Sollier, an affable Frenchman who left the United Nations to head Interpol's legal affairs office in 2008.
He said in the coup scenario, the grounds for prosecution may well be true—even though the context is political.
"Sometimes it's really tricky, you see,†Sollier said during an interview at Interpol's headquarters in Lyon.
Sollier, a former judge, helped draw up the guidelines Interpol lawyers use to consider whether a case violates Interpol's ban on political cases.
"Neutrality is, and always has been, paramount to Interpol,†reads Secretary General Ron Noble's foreword to the guidelines. "It is of the utmost importance that our activities transcend domestic and international politics."
The guidelines explain Interpol's decision-making process in cases involving former politicians, for instance, and its approach to cases that could be political—for example, criminal charges that arise from election activity.
In the end, the guidelines call for a case by case review of the facts underlying a particular case.
Billy Hawkes, the head of Interpol's appeals body, likes to quote the old adage that politics is in the eye of the beholder: "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.â€
But Interpol has another, structural hurdle to overcome in ferreting out political cases.
"Interpol is not like the United Nations,†says Philippe Neyroud, a lawyer in Geneva who has represented people on Interpol's Red Notice list. "It's just like the Jockey Club.â€
Because Interpol answers only to its police members and its own appeals body, Interpol's decisions and actions are geared toward maintaining police cooperation. Among other things, this means not ruffling too many feathers among its members.
Interpol's operations are based on the presumption that police are telling the truth and are acting with integrity. It's actually written in its rules.
In winter, on a gray day, lawyer Yaron Gottlieb sat inside Interpol's fortress-like headquarters in Lyon and explained Interpol's Red Notice process.
"We assume that what we receive here is accurate and relevant,†said Gottlieb, a friendly, intense young lawyer who has been with Interpol since 2005. "That an arrest warrant is issued by a judge who is not corrupt. And of course, that the case is not political. But then, if we receive information or if we have our own information—that in fact, the case is different from what it seems to be—we engage in a full review.â€
Sometimes, Gottlieb said, lawyers or Interpol's appeals body will flag a potentially political case. Sometimes, a third country will ask Interpol whether a certain Red Notice is political, and that will trigger a review.
Interpol will also sometimes flag a case after hearing about it on the news. The nerve center of Interpol is a room with a wall of TV screens beaming in cable news channels and top stories from around the world.
"We'll say, hmmm, let's check if we have already published it,†Gottlieb said. "And maybe the [front office] has published it already. But then, we can always reopen a case for review.â€
In other words, Interpol has developed a fluid, informal system for catching political cases. It can turn to regional experts and information from defense lawyers, human rights groups, and court decisions to help decide about particular cases.
As its chief lawyer, Sollier said his personal instruction is to simply cancel a Red Notice when there's a doubt.
But Interpol doesn't have independent investigative powers. And its purpose is not to get to the truth of a case. It's there to help its members—the police.
So Interpol's view of a political case doesn't always match others' views.
Take the case of Wikileaks' Julian Assange. When Sweden wanted to question Assange on allegations of rape, they got Interpol to issue a Red Notice—just to arrest him for questioning. Assange's lawyers charged the case was political, aimed at shutting him and Wikileaks down.
Sweden—and Interpol—saw it differently.
A former senior U.S. State Department official said that the U.S. government routinely marked some Interpol Red Notice cases as "politically motivatedâ€â€"when Interpol had not.
For instance, in 2005, the U.S. let in two partners of Mikhail Khordokovsky on Interpol's fugitives list—Mikhail Brudno and Vladimir Dubov. They joined President Bush at a National Prayer Breakfast.
The U.S. Interpol office, based in the Justice Department, refused an interview for this story.
Why does it matter whether Interpol gets it right? After all, Interpol doesn't have the power to arrest anyone. It just puts people on a most-wanted fugitives list.
Being on that list can change your life—or end it if you get extradited to a country that doesn't follow the rule of law.
You can be on Interpol's list even if you're a political refugee—and have won protection from the very country that is pursuing you through Interpol.
There's nowhere for a fugitive to turn when Interpol makes a mistake—and when it's not safe to return to the country behind that mistake.
Mistakes are something to think about—at a time when Interpol is growing rapidly—and is automating more of its work.
In 2005, Interpol issued 2,343 Red Notices. Last year, it was 6,344.
Partly to deal with that increased workload, Interpol is putting more power into the hands of its police members.
Two years ago, police had to apply directly to Interpol for a Red Notice. Today, every Red Notice request is entered into the system directly by the police themselves—not by Interpol. Police around the world instantly see those notices—before Interpol even reviews them.
Police can also bypass the formal Red Notice system altogether—and just type an informal notice of arrest in an email—and post it on Interpol's communications system. Those email notices—Interpol calls them "diffusionsâ€â€"go out instantly, with no automatic Interpol review.
Diffusions are pretty popular among Interpol members. Tunisia just used one to pursue deposed President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali.
And these informal email notices are linked to far more arrests than arrests linked to the Red Notices Interpol vets for political concerns.
Interpol says it knows of 1,858 arrests last year of people named in these email notices. That's more than twice the number of arrests last year—663—of people named in Red Notices that Interpol says it's aware of.
A Recipe For Abuse
To critics, Interpol's workings add up to a recipe for abuse—by countries run by dictators or human rights violators or countries without independent judiciaries.
"I think the process is unfair,†said Anand Doobay , a British lawyer who has defended people on Interpol's list. "There's no transparency to it. It's weighted in favor of law enforcement and the need to prevent and disrupt serious crime and terrorism. There's very little by way of protection to keep the state—or even one corrupt prosecutor—from misusing the process.â€
It boils down to Interpol not being subject to any outside oversight, said Philippe Neyroud, the Geneva lawyer. "So when there's an abuse, there's almost no remedy.â€
"Interpol is doing lots of good things, thank God!†he said, adding that "nobody does just good things†without sometimes doing the wrong thing.
Roger Gherson , a London-based immigration and human rights lawyer, said, "In this day and age, to have any policing authority without the ability to be monitored by any independent body is not a healthy thing to have.â€
Interpol points to its own appeals body as a remedy for those who believe they have been wronged. Interpol created the Commission for the Control of Interpol's Files in the 1980s to help it navigate the seas of international data protection—and handle complaints from people who say they are political targets—like the shipping magnate Ilya Katsnelson.
Billy Hawkes is head of Ireland's data protection authority; he chairs the part-time board of the commission. He is a warm and public-minded man who is clearly dedicated to using the commission to try to keep Interpol within the lines of international law and data protection law.
Last year, the commission recommended Interpol remove 21 cases from its databases altogether because of problems. It called for Interpol to remove another 73 notices from its public website—although police can still see them, and act on them.
But the commission has limits. It can't investigate cases on its own and its recommendations are not binding on Interpol.
Hawkes said there is "clear understanding†that Interpol will follow the commission's recommendations, even though there is no legal obligation to do so.
And while its board members are independent, Interpol funds and staffs the commission.
Interpol's rules dictate that any finding by the commission that a certain case is political, or a finding by Interpol's staff, can be overturned by a simple majority vote of its members—the police.
"It winds up being a diplomatic decision, a political decision that concerns the political freedom of a person,†said Mario Savino, a legal expert who has written about Interpol.
That is what happened to the former prime minister of Kazakhstan, who found his country asking for a Red Notice on him after he opposed the president. Interpol rejected the request, after judging it political. At Interpol's next General Assembly, the police members voted to reinstate the Red Notice. And Interpol did just that.
Secretary General Ron Noble said after the vote: "Interpol is a democratic organization, and when our members have expressed their will through the democratic process, the general secretariat moves promptly—as in this case—to implement the member states' decision.â€
In other words, Interpol follows the rules of the club.

The legacy of Joe Kubert is rich and varied, from his school to his work on Sgt. Rock, Hawkman and other DC Comics properties. But one aspect of his career isn't often a focus: He was among the first comic book professional to own his own character, predating the current creator-owned movement by more than 50 years.
The prehistoric Tor first appeared in 1,000,000 Years Ago #1, published in 1953 and edited by Joe Kubert and Norman Maurer. Its contents were owned by the book's publisher, St. John Publications. But then in 1958, St. John abandoned comics and simply turned the rights to Tor over to Kubert.
How did he pull that off? By asking. As Tom Spurgeon's obituary at The Comics Reporter explains, "Kubert said that receiving the copyright on Tor was as simple as requesting from the heir to the St. John publishing enterprise that the copyright be returned to him after the publisher had moved away from comics. The legally appropriate person provided a letter doing just that."
If only it were that easy now!

Wow your friends with these fun 10 easy dog tricks. Can your dog master all ten of them? Make him the coolest canine on the block with just a little dog training.
Shake Hands
Start by having your dog sit. Say, "shake hands" and take their paw with your hand. Hold their paw and say, "Good dog!" Then let go of their paw. Do this a few times every day.
After a while, say "shake hands," but don't take their paw. See if they raise their paw by themselves. If not, keep showing them what to do by saying, "shake hands" and then taking their paw into your hand. Your dog is not slow; they are just learning! It may take a couple of days of reinforcing the trick for them to perfect it
High Five
Start by having your dog "shake." If your dog does not shake, just touch the back of their paw and say "shake." Once your dog starts to offer their paw, turn your hand up so your hand is facing your dog. Start saying "high five" while holding your hand up. When your dog hits your hand with their paw quickly say "good dog" and reward with a treat.
As your dog starts to hit your hand with their paw; start to slightly raise your hand higher and higher. Keep raising your hand until you can stand and your dog jumps up to high five your hand. Reward your dog as soon as they do it. Hold your right hand in the air again and say the command "high five" but do not reach for your dog's paw. Hopefully they will place their paw against your hand. Allow them the opportunity to do it on their own before you reach for their paw. If they don't do it on their own, reward them immediately with treats or praise.
Choose a game that your dog loves to play, like catch with a ball, or hide and seek with a toy. Then get them excited by saying, "Let's play! Want to play?" and show them the ball or toy. Jump and act silly so they bark and then say, "Good dog, speak!" Then play the game as a reward for learning the command "Speak".
You can't make a dog bark, but you can get them happy and excited so they want to bark. After a while, your dog will bark when you say, "Speak." Caution! If you have a dog that already causes trouble because of their barking, you might not want to encourage this behavior. If you decide it's ok to teach it, be sure to teach "quiet'" as well but at another time.
Play Dead
Have your dog lie down on their tummy. As you gently roll them over on their side, say, "Take a nap." While they are lying on their side, keeping their head on the floor, say, "Take a nap." Don't give them a treat. Encourage them to stay there for a couple of seconds. Then say, "ok" or "wake up!", let them stand up, and then give the reward.
You can use the treat to lure your dog into a lying down position. Don't give your dog a reward while they are lying down. Give them a treat after the trick is completed.
Beg: "Say Please"
Have your dog sit, facing you. Hold their favorite treat just above their head and tell them, "say please." Your dog will then probably lift their front feet off the ground to reach for the treat. As soon as the feet are lifted, even a little bit, give them the treat.
This is a hard trick for most dogs. Wait a little longer each time before giving the treat, but be careful not to let your dog fall over on their back. You are helping your dog develop this balance. Be kind and only do this a couple of times.
Wave Goodbye
Your dog should know how to shake hands before learning this trick. Face your dog and hold out your hand as if you are going to shake. When your dog lift their paw to shake, don't grab it, just pull back your hand, and say "wave". Then give your dog a treat.
At first your dog may not lift their paw very high. But once they realize that you're going to give them a treat if they hold it up there, they will quickly catch on. You may have to tease them a little with your hand so they think you are going to shake with them. Waving your hand a little may help to get their paw into a waving motion as well.
Here's an easy one: Every time your dog licks your face, say, "give me a kiss. Good job! Give me a kiss." If they aren't a licker, put a little peanut butter on your cheek and say, "give me a kiss." When they lick it off say, "give me a kiss" again.
Tricks like this work because you put words with something your dog does. Pretty soon your dog hears "give me a kiss" and thinks about licking your face. Then give them a hug, rub their ears and say, "good job!" Dogs love that!
If your dog doesn't fetch naturally, have an adult cut a slit in a tennis ball (a smaller, rubber ball if that is too big). Put some treats inside the tennis ball. Show your dog that there are treats in there, and give them one. Then, throw the ball. In the beginning, run with them and get the ball and then give them a treat. Before you know it you'll be able to throw the ball and they will retrieve it!
After your dog has figured out what they have to do to get a treat, start throwing the ball two times in a row without giving them the treat. What you are trying to do is give less treats and less often so someday you won't need a treat for the game of fetch.
Take a Bow
Method 1: When you see your dog taking a big stretch with their head down low, say, "take a bow." Every time they wake up and stretch say, "take a bow." Then give them give a treat.
Tip: Tricks like this work because you put words with something your dog does. It may take some dogs longer than others to figure this one out. Some dogs learn it in a week and for some it takes years…yes, years! But one day you will say, "Take a bow," and maybe, just maybe, your dog will take a bow.
Method 2: With your dog in a standing position, take a treat and hold it near the floor under their nose. As your dog reaches down to get it (they may try to lie down), slip your hand under their belly to hold their rear end up. Hold them in that position and say, "take a bow." Keep the treat right by their nose, but don't give it to them. Stay there for just a second longer, release them, and then give the reward.
Tip: If you feed your dog the treat while they are in the bowing position, in the future they won't bow until they see the treat in your hand. If they learn that the treat comes later they'll be more willing to perform for you.
Go to Bed
"Go to bed" means go to the bed AND "lie down." You should only need to say "Go to bed". Put a bed, blanket, or towel 6-10 feet away from you. With your dog beside you say "Go to bed" and then together go to the bed. Have your dog lie down on the bed, give them a treat, and praise. Repeat many times. Later on, try sending your dog by themselves. At first, make sure that someone is waiting at the bed with a treat. Later, your dog will do it on their own and you will walk over to them while they are lying down to give them one last bed time cookie.

How much is this worth in your area?
How much is this worth in your area?
I sold one just like it, similar condition for $210 early last summer.
- But I am not sure that I could get $100 for it now. (The weather and economic factors are driving prices through the basement.) YMMV.
- Auchen
+1 $200 in season.
I just sold a 312 for $150.00 real quick. I bought it at garage sale for $50 and turned it over within 24 hours to a student at MSU. I think you could actually get a bit over $200 for it if you wanted to sit on it for awhile. I personally like the quick return on my money.
Miyatas seem to be pretty popular here in SoCal. The 310's I see usually list at $200-$225. I sold a 1984 310 2 weeks ago for $240. It had been upgraded with 700c Mavic rims and had 105 Golden Arrow bits. Nice riding bike. Sold it to a girl who said she didn't want a really high end bike to ride at school. I hope she has a good lock anyway.
I see bikes like that listed for $400, but I don't think they sell because I see the same ads over and over again. $125-$200 sounds about right. Though I think that is still too much, but that's just me. An Ex-Miyata fan.
Shimano 6 speed freewheel.
Right now, in Ontario, $100, maybe $125 in larger market like T.O. or Ottawa.
Looks like a small frame, 50 cm or 52 cm? Would be a nice ride for a young coed. I sold a Miyata 210 last summer to a young woman for $165.00. It was a beautiful gold color and had 18 speeds. Would have kept it, but at 54 cm it was too short for me. I normally ride 58 cm.
I like Miyatas very much, haven't seen a junky one yet.

HOME COOKING; Korean Mysteries, Deciphered By a Family of Masters
By MARK BITTMAN
Published: March 26, 2003
EVERY cuisine has a soul hidden in its recipes, one that isn't always easy for the outsider to see. This is especially true when the cultural gap between outsider and cook is large.
The wide variety of New York City's restaurants has helped diners experience the world's cuisines in all kinds of settings. But those meals rarely go far enough to satisfy the adventurous home cook. There is, after all, a marked difference between eating cold borscht in a nightclub on Brighton Beach Avenue in Brooklyn and making it at home in the warm light of your own kitchen.
How to crack the code? You could ask a waiter for help, or pester the chef. But the questions may put you at yet another remove from your needs -- the techniques of the professional kitchen are not always of help in the home. You could try to recreate the flavors on your own, with no real knowledge of how they were originally created. This method, though sometimes successful, is more often frustrating. Cookbooks can help, but for most Americans, only those that are written in English.
The ideal solution for the novice approaching a new cuisine is to learn from a native, one who is cultured from birth in its preparation. And there may be no better place on the planet to do that than in New York City.
It was in this spirit that, seeking to better understand the principles and techniques of Korean home cooking, I ventured on a recent dreary, sopping-wet Saturday to a modest house in Flushing, Queens, the home of the Baeks, a Korean-American family I had met through a mutual friend.
The Baeks are among the million or so Koreans that the 2000 census counted in the United States, somewhat less than 100,000 of them in New York City. Gathered on this day to introduce me to the bold, distinct flavors of Korean home cooking were Seunghi Baek, 66, and her husband, Hi-Il Baek, 73, along with their daughter, Haejin Baek, 39, a bond trader who lives in Manhattan, and their daughter-in-law, Margaret Kim, 33, an instructor at the French Culinary Institute, who also lives in Manhattan.
The Baek family (the name is pronounced bek) emigrated from Seoul in 1970, when Haejin Baek was 6 and Michael, one of her brothers and later Ms. Kim's husband, was 3. (Another brother, Tony, was born in the United States.) Hi-Il Baek ran a variety of stores, including a grocery, until his retirement in 1990. Mrs. Baek is a nurse. Most of the family are serious, committed home cooks, and although the children have grown to admire other cuisines, they all cook Korean food at home.
Cooking plays an important role in Korea's culture and sits at the heart of family life, but the cuisine is an especially difficult one for Westerners to learn, much less master. No defining cookbooks have been written in or translated into English, and the ingredients in each recipe can be both numerous and arcane. The challenges of moving beyond the basics in Korean cooking had stymied me for nearly 20 years.
I was about to get help.
The activity in the Baek kitchen was already intense when I arrived. Seunghi Baek, who cooked dinner for the family nearly every day when the children were young and who maintains the slightly formal attitude of a family matriarch, was sautéing vegetables for chop chae and dol sot bi bim bop. (The names of the Korean dishes mentioned here can be transliterated in many ways. These versions are Haejin Baek's.) The first is a glass noodle dish I adore, and about which I immediately learned something: chop chae does not use mung bean threads, as I had long assumed, but potato starch noodles.
Dol sot bi bim bop is a special type of bi bim bop, the classic Korean rice bowl into which a variety of vegetables, some meat and a fried egg are mixed. In the variation I learned, the rice is cooked in a stone pot so that, ideally, it develops a hard browned crust. This sticky caramelized crust is considered the best part, and, as in many other Asian cuisines, it is scraped off the bottom and stirred back into the rice with the other ingredients.
Meanwhile, on an electric griddle in another room, Mr. Baek was cooking mandoo, a dish of meat-filled dumplings not unlike Japanese gyoza, and gogi-jun, or small beef-tofu pancakes. Culturally speaking, it was as if he were out in the yard, manning a grill. In the kitchen, Ms. Kim diced vegetables expertly. Ms. Baek, working next to her mother, started to assemble kalbi jim, a dark, sweet, spicy short rib stew. The three women worked efficiently, and did not banter much; they are an affectionate, though polite, family.
Ms. Baek said she had learned to cook at her mother's knee, but that as a young immigrant her first cooking interests were non-Korean. ''I wanted to try cooking American food,'' she said, ''because it was harder than Korean -- you needed cookbooks for it. I remember doing macaroni and cheese, then bread, croissants and éclairs when I was in high school.''
But, she continued, ''when I started living on my own I missed Korean food, so I started to cook it.'' She soon recognized that Koreans were toning things down, making their food less spicy for American -- and Americanized Korean -- palates. ''Almost no one, not in restaurants or in Korean homes, uses as much spice as Korean food really needs,'' she said. ''Not enough black pepper, chilies or garlic.''

Ok, I'm going to take a look at each once, and give my opinions on them, and what you can do to them to make the in-game team a whole lot better! These are just my suggestions here, so bare with me.
If you need any breedable I can help you
Aerith the Tyranitar, Level 59.
Ok Tyranitar has a few problems here, Flamethrower and Bulldoze are moves that aren't needed at all, as Flamethrower is special based and Earthquake already takes coverage for the ground type moves. There are tons of other good physical moves out there to use either by TM, Level Up, and Move Tutor. Some moves I will reccomend to replace Flamethrower and Bulldoze would be Rock Slide, Dragon Tail, Dragon Claw, Ice Punch, Fire Punch, Brick Break, and Aqua Tail
Thundor the Magnezone, Level 100
Magnet Bomb
Electro Ball
Discharge - ?
Magnet Rise
I feel like the set for Magnezone is rather lacking, it is a more special based attacker. Give it a move like Flash Cannon or Mirror Shot rather than have Magnet Bomb there. Discharge and Thunderbolt are moves debated among one another so your pick there. Signal Beam is another good spcial move to throw on there. Then I'd suggest taking out Magnet Rise for something like T.Wave, that way you could put status on the Pokemon
Bryock the Golurk, Level 64
Hammer Arm
Heavy Slam
Klutz is a bad ability unless you know Trick. However it is not the end of the world here n,n I have a few suggestions for Heavy Slam and Strentgh. First off Shadow Punch is a good physical ghost attack, and I think that Golruk would rather have that. He can also learn the elemental punches as well, so those are to be put into thought as well. Drain Punch is a move as well if you want a healing-draining move, but if you go with that I say replace Hammer Arm
Zeus the Zekrom, Level 73
Zen Headbutt
Fusion Bolt
Dragon Claw
I have a bias where I do not use legendary Pokemon at all in-game. I'd rather have a team of super strong skittys than have a team of 100 arceaus. First off, Fuishon Bolt has a limited amount of PP to use, so something like Thunder Punch or Wild Charge will do much better. Zen Headbutt is also not the best move as it doesn't have the best coverage. A move that I would reccomend is Fly, as its in-game; they won't be switching out on you; plus this is a move that is needed for the game anyways
So by looking at your four Pokemon, I can see that each of them has some flaws here in their; I think that on this team you should drop Zekrom due to it being an electric type (as you'd have two of them) and maybe get some others to add onto your team. A good support Pokemon that can inflict status like Lilligant, Gothitelle, or Whimsicott would not be bad investments to put onto your team. Getting a Starmie with the Psychic -TBolt - IceBeam - Surf moveset would add some power to the team as well. There are HMs to deal with every now and then like the occasional tree and what not, but for the most part Pokemon Black 2 really only needs you to surf and boulder push every know and then.
There are a bunch of other Pokemon that I would reccomend, all of them being special based and maybe a bit on the bulkier side. Milotic, Togekiss, Volcarano, Roserade, Lucario, Vapoeron, and Chandelure (note - ghost)
Those are my thoughts at least ~

They said big rigs OK' however unless you want to tear the roof off your RV, I recommend you stay clear of this park. They told us it was a RV park; however, I think we were the only transient RV in the park and judging from the leaf accumulation and low hanging tree branches on all the roads, there hasn't been an overnighter in some time. The staff was friendly, but that is the only nice thing I can say. We damaged our ladder from trees and both entrances are bad, but the south entrance is almost impossible with a RV. The front is accessible, but you will drag branches on the roof. I promise, we will NEVER return. - flyturbo60

Beautiful setting, right on the Rogue River. Good size sites with large patio pad & picnic table. Park is very clean and well kept, but with no privacy between sites. There are many permanent residents, but without the usual clutter. Staff was friendly, but all business.
We stayed two nights and spent most of our time away from the park, but we did see several people fishing. Great place for a short stop. - Nanabanana
Aug 2015 - $53.00
This park in a treed setting on the banks of the Rogue River. We had a level, gravel, FHU, pull-through with an unobstructed view of the river right through the windshield. Our site was one of the few that was, as requested, satellite friendly. That was good because the cable TV was only 12 channels. Their 802.11 network was adequate for our minimal needs (e-mail and surfing). The park has a lot of extended stay customers. It appears to be about 50/50 between pull-through and back-in sites. For recreation, there are horseshoe pits and you can fish right from the river bank. There is a boat launch ramp, Also along the river are sever wooden decks with a picnic table, a BBQ pavilion, and a boardwalk that goes west under the bridge. The bathrooms/showers and laundry are in the center of the park and barely adequate for this size park. They are older, but clean. I liked the park because of the great site we had (river view and satellite friendly), but most people won't get that. The cost is also way out of line at over $50 a night. - Jerry S
Jul 2014 - $1.00
This is a nice RV park. There are quite a few full time RV's but they are kept up. At check in we were told the spot right on the river which had been confirmed 4 months prior had been given to someone else the day before. There were 4 or 5 spots empty that they could have given out but our spot was much better and right on the river. I was very upset and asked that they comp the spot they were giving us and they did for 3 nights. The Rogue river was beautiful & we loved watching people catch fish right in front of us. The spaces were long tight pull throughs. We would stay here again but double check on our reservation a week before. With the problem in the past they were very nice. I would stay here again. - Josiegodog

What to Wear in Summer when you want to hide your arms?
The arms are one of the first things to go. You wake up one day, look in the mirror and are stunned to see that your once shapely upper arms have suddenly turned to flab and are hanging down like big hunks of jello.
How did this happen and what the heck can you do about it? In winter it's easy, wear sleeves. In summer, it's tricky. A lot of women don't feel comfortable unless they cover up their arms even in the hottest of weather. So what do you wear that is cool but gives some coverage.
Here are some ideas:
Try a 3/4 length Sleeve
For 99.9% of women who like to cover their arms, it is the upper part of their arms they worry about. So to keep covered by stay cool, why not try a 3/4 length sleeve. This length is practical and keeps you cold. Plus, it is very youthful because you are showing some skin at the forearms.
Go for Sheer Long Sleeves
If you take a good look around you will find a few long sleeved tops with sheer sleeves. Peasant blouses, which are very in at the moment, often have sheer sleeves.This is a favorite trick of celebrities like Sophia Loren.
Play with Off the Shoulder
Most women have great shoulders, so a top that exposed the shoulders can be very pretty and alluring. The best part is this type of type hides the tops of your arms. Everyone is looking at your neck and shoulders and no one notices your arms.
Experiment with a Cold Shoulder
One of the most popular tops of the summer is the cold shoulder. this is a top that let just the tops of your shoulders peek through. It's a sexy look, but a little less exposed than a full off the shoulder.
Try a Lace top over a sleeveless top
Sheer lace tops over camisoles have been a huge trend and work well to divert attention away from saggy arms.
Try Sheer Top over a Sleeveless Top
Wear Flutter Sleeves
Have Fun in a Tunic or Poncho top
A poncho top has huge flutter sleeves that camouflage your arms extremely well.
Wear a light cardigan or wrap
Sometimes you want to go with a bare arm but you don't want it totally exposed. Try a pretty summer wrap draped around your shoulders. This is a great look especially in the evening.
