Will I have postpartum depression again?
I had postpartum depression after having my daughter. It was mild enough that I didn't need medications and went to therapy and a support group. The depression has now subsided, but I have anxiety (but it is also getting better through therapy and taking time for myself). How likely is it that I will have depression again next time?

Unfortunately women who have previously experienced postpartum depression, or for that matter any type of depression, are more likely to have it following future births. Since you know you are prone to it, you may want to begin taking precautions now. Make sure you have plenty to eat and drink throughout labor and delivery, and find a cooperative caregiver who will be able to assist you in obtaining lactation-safe medications following delivery (if you are planning to breastfeed).
You may also want to contact your former therapist and begin attending support group meetings to prepare yourself. You seem very well prepared and I think you will do great! Best of luck!

Looking after yourself nutritionally can change the outcome dramatically. Making sure you have healthy eating habit and increasing particularly B Vitamins can help to prevent postpartum depression from occuring.
So make sure you are having plenty of good fat sources (which help the function of your brain and needed for bubbies growing brain too) such as nuts and seeds, avocado and fish (and oil versions of any of these), as well as protein sources such as nuts and seeds, lean meats, fish, chicken (organic only due to growth factors and other nasties), legumes. Of course also having lots of fresh veggies (particularly dark leafy greens) and fruits.
Then limit your intake of sugars/carbohydrates and 'bad' fats such as breads, pastas, baked goods, rice, grains, starchy veggies e.g. potato.
There are also many nutritional supplements that can help should you happen to get it.
I had PND that went unnoticed after my first child, so was much more vigilant looking for the signs the second time round and got straight onto it when I noticed the slightest sign that it was starting. Turned out to be poor thyroid function (which is a very common cause of PND as your thyroid function drops after having a baby and is strongly linked to depression).
I got straight onto some supplements to increase my nutrition and felt better within 3 days. It's something that is very often easily helped and you don't need to suffer with it unnecessarily.
Enjoy your pregnancy!

Hi NataliesMum,
I just wanted to second the opinions expressed above. Whilst postpartum depression is unfortunately more likely if you have suffered from it previously, the fact that you are proactively trying to give your body all that it needs will help. Also, it sounds like you already have a strong support network which it is important to maintain as a new mum. There's some evidence that baby wearing and breastfeeding can reduce the likelihood of post partum depression occurring. But if you are ever concerned, please ask for help straight away. Dealing with/ treating the depression sooner is advised to stop it developing further.
I wish you a happy, healthy pregnancy, birth and time as a new mum again.
Best wishes,

Unfortunately there is a correllation and it is a distinct possibility the 2nd time too. But make sure you get yourself into great shape physically and mentally and ensure you have your support network in place early this time, so I totally enhance the advice above. Though there is also the distinct possibility you will be fine too!

Cueto dominates in 9-2 Reds win
CLEVELAND -- Johnny Cueto threw his fourth complete game of the season and the Cincinnati Reds, aided by a bizarre play in which a Cleveland runner was fooled by a second ball on the field, defeated the Indians 9-2 on Tuesday night.
The Indians, trying to mount a comeback in the seventh, had a rally squelched after an errant warmup pitch from Cincinnati's bullpen came on the field.
Yan Gomes' double cut the lead to 6-2 and moved David Murphy to third as a ball thrown by reliever Jumbo Diaz rolled behind second base. Murphy mistakenly thought that ball was live and edged off third. He was tagged out after the ball that was in play was thrown to Santiago.
Indians manager Terry Francona spoke briefly with the umpires, but the call stood.
The unusual play, along with Cueto's strong performance and a rare big offensive day by the Reds, helped Cincinnati break a 10-game losing streak at Progressive Field.
Cueto (13-6), who hasn't lost since July 2, allowed two runs in winning his fifth straight decision.
Ramon Santiago hit a three-run homer in the second off Josh Tomlin (5-8) to break a 1-all tie for his first home run since Aug. 16 last season while playing for Detroit.
Cincinnati, which has been playing without All-Stars Joey Votto and Brandon Phillips, is 6-12 since the break, as it struggles to stay in the NL playoff chase.
Michael Brantley had an RBI single for the Indians, whose four-game winning streak ended.
Cincinnati scored in the first on a dropped relay throw by third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall.
Jay Bruce had three hits and two RBIs and Negron added a two-run double in the ninth.

Few things, backtrack was made to be run as root .. in fact 90% of the tools wont work unless you are root. Thats why they have the install the way it is .. just sudo su, then passwd.
And if your really wondering why your changes aren't copied over then you dont understand what a live dvd is. If however your talking about your usb not having changes there are plenty of posts on it already.
Once you do the HD install all your changes will stick ... that is if you followed the directions
Using backtrack for the first time is like being 10 years old again with the keys to a Ferrari.

The San Francisco 49ers lost running back Kendall Hunter and wide receiver Kyle Williams to season-ending injuries on the same play during Sunday's win at New Orleans.
A pair of tough blows for the NFC West-leading Niners (8-2-1) as they prepare for a road game at St. Louis on Sunday three weeks after a 24-24 tie with the Rams on Nov. 11 at Candlestick Park.
Now, running back Anthony Dixon likely will take on a larger role backing up Frank Gore and rookie second-round draft pick LaMichael James is expected to be active, along with top draft pick wide receiver A.J. Jenkins.
"We pride ourselves on being a stacked team, on being deep, and we've just got to show up this week," Dixon said.
An announcement on who will start Sunday at quarterback is expected from coach Jim Harbaugh on Wednesday. Colin Kaepernick has won the last two games in his first two career NFL starts, while former Utah Ute Alex Smith is now fully healthy from a concussion suffered in the first half of the last meeting with the Rams.
Also Tuesday, the 49ers agreed with linebacker NaVorro Bowman on a five-year contract extension through the 2018 season. The contract is worth $45.25 million, with $25.5 million in guaranteed money, a person with knowledge of the details said.
Around the league
Chiefs • Running back Jamaal Charles caused a stir after asking for Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning's autograph following the Chiefs' 17-9 loss Sunday in Kansas City, Mo. In a tweet Tuesday, Charles called the exchange "just two warriors showing each other respect."
Eagles • Philadelphia placed receiver DeSean Jackson on injured reserve, and he will miss the rest of the season after suffering multiple rib fractures on a running play Monday against Carolina. The Eagles also released defensive end Jason Babin in the first major roster move for a team that's lost seven straight games. Babin had 5.5 sacks after recording 18 last year. He signed a five-year, $28 million deal last summer after going to his first Pro Bowl with Tennessee following the 2010 season. The move came Tuesday, a day after a 30-22 home loss to Carolina.
Coach Andy Reid says the Eagles cut Babin to give more playing time to younger players.
Philadelphia (3-8) plays at Dallas (5-6) on Sunday night.
Bears • Chicago signed former Pro Bowl offensive lineman Andre Gurode, hoping to boost a short-handed unit. A five-time Pro Bowl pick, Gurode made five starts at left guard and appeared in 13 games played for Baltimore last season after playing with Dallas from 2002 to 2010.
Buccaneers • Cornerback Eric Wright will miss the team's next four games after his appeal of a ban for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing drugs by using the prescription drug Adderall was denied. Wright, 27, said in a statement that the NFL suspension was the result of taking Adderall in July for "health issues."Adderall is a stimulant used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, and Wright said Monday he was extremely disappointed that the discipline was upheld

LONG BEACH — Republican congressional candidate Gary DeLong on Monday called the video-recording efforts of an opposition tracker whose cell phone he grabbed away last week "outrageous and offensive."
The incident that happened Friday at Cal State Long Beach's Pointe at the Pyramid has overshadowed the event where it occurred, a League of Women Voters forum with DeLong's opponent, Democratic state Sen. Alan Lowenthal.
"I asked her nicely to back off and give me a foot or two," DeLong, a Long Beach councilman, said of the woman.
"She was so intrusive, she was blocking members of the public and preventing them from talking to me."
DeLong expressed no regrets about the scuffle, after which he took the phone to two League of Women Voters members who set it on a table. The tracker quickly scooped the phone up and resumed recording.
"It was intrusive," said DeLong. "Most importantly, I don't think voters in the 47 th District support that behavior."
Democrats used the incident to argue that DeLong is not ready for the pressures of national office.
"Maybe DeLong should stick to City Council," said Tenoch Flores, a spokesman for the California Democratic Party.
"If he's complaining about the scrutiny he is facing now, this is nothing compared to what he'll face in Congress."
Flores confirmed the blonde woman at the debate is paid by the state party and has been following DeLong for several weeks, chronicling the candidate's statements. He wouldn't identify her.
In the race for Long Beach's new congressional seat, even the trackers have trackers.
DeLong's campaign released an ad last month that appeared to show the same tracker following him, his wife and his 6-year-old daughter at the Long Beach Greek Festival.
DeLong was wearing a campaign shirt and said he had a booth at the festival, but did not visit it.
"It makes you feel like she's crazy and you don't know what she's capable of," DeLong said.
Although sources with both parties disagreed over whether a candidate can ever truly expect a measure of privacy, one veteran political consultant who saw DeLong's ad questioned the zeal of the woman in the particular setting shown by the ad.
"It's one thing having a tracker at a campaign rally, it's another thing to have one when a candidate is having down time," said Allan Hoffenblum, a former Republican strategist who now edits the California Target Book, a nonpartisan elections guide.
"Not to make any excuses for him, but I think it's human nature you don't like having someone following you around when it has nothing to do with a campaign."
League of Women Voters Long Beach President Jan Gallup said she was "disappointed" by what happened Friday.
Each candidate signed an agreement that recording requests would be approved beforehand by the League of Women Voters. The contract also strictly managed how the material could be used.
She acknowledged the rules may have only applied to the candidates and technically didn't extend to after the debate, when the argument occurred.
Gallup said the tracker behaved in an irritating manner, thrusting the phone "six inches from peoples' faces."
"I feel badly because we ask candidates to sign that agreement so they feel safe and willing to talk to us in these forums," said Gallup. "We were unable to keep that assurance."
Lowenthal declined to get involved in the disagreement during the event, despite a direct appeal from DeLong.
On Monday, Lowenthal spokesman Mike Shimpock hitched the phone-snatch to a favorite campaign attack line - that DeLong, a moderate, would buckle to GOP pressure if sent to Washington.
"If he can't stand up to a five-foot-tall woman with a video camera, he's not going to be able to stand up to John Boehner," said Shimpock.

description: Follow Richard Ambrose and Jonny Phillips on an underground journey as they explore the London Tube and learn how to drive a tube train. Mind the gap!

is_us_only: false

title: I Didn't Know That: The London Tube

allowUserEmbed: True

credit: National Geographic

transcript:
NARRATOR: The London Underground is one of the largest urban rail services in the world. Its passengers make more than 1 billion journeys every year. Opening in 1863, it was the first underground system of its kind.
RICHARD AMBROSE: And it was a hit from the start. By 1880 the London Tube was carrying over 40 million passengers a year.
NARRATOR: And surprisingly for something that's called the underground, 55% of today's network is actually above ground. But it's the tube-shaped tunnels that have made it famous. And their depth varies greatly.
NARRATOR: The oldest are just below street level, whereas newer sections are typically at least 20 metres below the surface.
NARRATOR: It operates 600 trains 7 days a week. So, what does it take to be a tube driver?
JONNY PHILLIPS: Unfortunately they wouldn't let me loose on a real train, but we've got the next best thing.
NARRATOR: This million-pound state-of-the-art simulator is normally used to train London Underground's finest. But today they're letting Jonny loose behind the wheel. Except it isn't a wheel. His trainer is Matt Shelley.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Right, so just push this forward and I'll start moving.
MATT SHELLEY: And the train will go.
JONNY PHILLIPS: And back to break?
MATT SHELLEY: And back towards you to break.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Right. Oh, here we go.
NARRATOR: And, as any tube driver will tell you, the secret to a smooth ride lies in the wrist action.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Are there speed limits?
MATT SHELLEY: There are, on the display in front of you.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Oh yes.
MATT SHELLEY: You see the train speed in the yellow.
MATT SHELLEY: The red hand, as we all it, to the right hand side. That's your maximum speed.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Right.
MATT SHELLEY: And that'll tell you when you need to slow down.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Obviously I want to be concentrating on the track, not looking at that.
MATT SHELLEY: Exactly.
JONNY PHILLIPS: That's quite tough.
NARRATOR: Once you're up and running on a clear stretch of track it's a bit of a doddle.
JONNY PHILLIPS: It's a lovely day.
NARRATOR: On this simulator it's possible to drive anywhere on the London Underground network, under any weather conditions.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Look at that, the snow's settled. And what about the trees? And lightning and - [the plague].
MATT SHELLEY: Not yet. We haven't got lightning on the progs yet. Trees on the track we can do.
NARRATOR: Trees are one thing. Just don't mention the wrong type of leaves. Right, now all Jonny has to master is stopping.
MATT SHELLEY: Right, so now you're going..
JONNY PHILLIPS: Whooo.
MATT SHELLEY: A 400 metre break, you need to be at zero.
JONNY PHILLIPS: OK. Just wait for that red hand to get closer and do a bit more breaking.
MATT SHELLEY: Pretty good.
NARRATOR: To help the driver stop accurately, every station has a board at the end of the platform. The trick is to land in the green. Miss it and you're in trouble, because these trains have no reverse. So will Jonny make the grade?
JONNY PHILLIPS: Oooh.
MATT SHELLEY: Not quite. A little bit more.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Sorry that was a little bit vigorous.
MATT SHELLEY: Yes.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Goodness me.
MATT SHELLEY: The system's telling us because you haven't stopped accurately enough.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Right.
MATT SHELLEY: You aren't allowed to open the doors.
JONNY PHILLIPS: Oh no! So I've got a lot of irate passengers.
MATT SHELLEY: Yeah.
TUBE STATION ANNOUNCEMENT: Mind the gap.

Bad, bad mascot name choice.So Tex Schramm originally changed the name to the Dallas Rangers, in honor of the Texas Rangers. The law enforcement team, not the baseball team. In 1959 when all of this was happening the College Draft for the 1960 Draft Class was held in November 1959. The league allowed Tex Schramm to sign a couple of players to a "Future Services Contract. Dallas did not have the benefit of the 1960 Draft to build their team, but they signed Don Meredith from SMU and Don Perkins from New Mexico to these futures contracts. Those contracts were between those players and the Dallas Rangers. The Bears drafted Meredith in the 3rd round, so in the 1961 draft we owed them our 3rd round pick. The Baltimore Colts drafted Perkins in the 9th round, so in 1961 we also owed them our 9th round pick. Well, on March 26th, 1960 the team changed their name yet again and this time it was to the Dallas Cowboys. All of the players they selected on March 13, 1960 from the expansion draft from the other 12 clubs were signed to contracts as Dallas Cowboys. 52 years ago, yesterday. My apologies for forgetting to write this then.

Five-fight deals signed by Valentino Petrescu, Spencer Hewitt and Chad Griffiths.
Five-fight deals signed by Valentino Petrescu, Spencer Hewitt and Chad Griffiths.
Brum, Grant, Roddy, McDonough, Hewitt
Got to be one of cw's best domestic ranked divisions when looking at exclusives. 7/6 Holohan and McVeigh are also bw and cw exclusive but moving down.
And Pennington (although he`s not exclusive).
MMA Officials London, Essex and East Anglia representative
Hopefully after JP's next fight he'll be back on CW for good.
He just wants to fight good guys and as CW have the best bantams it's the logical place to be.
How come he isn't fighting Fawcett now on M4TC. Was looking forward to seeing that. Would have been a war.
He'd beat Fawcett easy imo, he looked so good against Doolan.
Give Fawcett some credit though, he has stones and a serious chin. *Refers to fight with Whiteford*
Doolan cheated Weasel out of the fight.
I've been told before he fought JP he dangled his shins in a bath mixed with the spit of the whole DNFT and vinegar for 3 days.
This made his shins like steel.
JP basically got a Jeremy Beadle foot after they clashed shin on shin, he's only really started walking properly on it and as he's missed 3 weeks training altogether so I pulled him from the fight.
We made that mistake before, he fought injured and he lost.
Shame though, I think Carl and JP would of had the makings of a really good fight.

Don't Believe Fox's Hype: Ener1 Enjoys Bipartisan Support And Is Not "Another Solyndra"
Research ››› ››› CHELSEA RUDMAN & LESLIE ROSENBERG
Fox News figures have been hyping the bankruptcy filing of high-tech battery manufacturer Ener1, blaming President Obama for its financial problems and claiming the case is "another Solyndra," referring to a solar panel company that went bankrupt last year. But experts have said the case is "no Solyndra," and in blaming Obama for Ener1's bankruptcy, Fox is ignoring a history of GOP support for the company -- including from Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, to whom Fox recently gave lavish praise.
Fox Hypes Ener1 Bankruptcy Filings As "Another Solyndra" For Obama
Kilmeade: "This Sounds Like Solyndra"; Varney: "It's A Major Embarrassment For The President's Green Energy Policy." On the January 27 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, the co-hosts discussed Ener1's bankruptcy with guest and Fox Business host Stuart Varney. Co-host Brian Kilmeade said to Varney, "This sounds like Solyndra," and Varney replied, "It's another major embarrassment for the president's green energy policy." From the broadcast:
KILMEADE: Ener1 was given millions in stimulus dollars -- now it's bankrupt. The company's CEO citing insufficient customer demand. Stuart Varney is here. Stuart, this sounds like Solyndra.
VARNEY: It's another major embarrassment for the president's green energy policy. Solyndra, Beacon Power, and now Ener1. And by the way, Vice President Biden, in that same speech, went on later to refer to it as "Enron 1." ... So an embarrassment for President Obama's green energy policy, another couple of gaffes from Vice President Biden. The place is bankrupt.
VARNEY: Well, look, Ener1 is a child of the stimulus program. It got $118 million in grants, not loans, grants, to go forward. It is now bankrupt. It was supposed to employ 1,400 people by 2013. It doesn't. It employs 350.
VARNEY: It's another example of the government picking winners with our money. Unfortunately, they're losers, and we lose our money. [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 1/27/12]
MacCallum Calls Ener1 "Another Solyndra." On the January 27 edition of America's Newsroom, co-host Martha MacCallum introduced a segment on Ener1 by saying, "So it looks like we may have another Solyndra on our hands." She then discussed the company's bankruptcy with Varney. From the show:
MacCALLUM: So it looks like we may have another Solyndra on our hands. A third American energy company filing for bankruptcy after getting federally-backed funds from the Energy Department through the White House. Now, this time it is called Ener1, the parent company of an electric car battery maker. Seems that electric car battery sales have not been so hot. They received a $118 million grant back in 2009. Just last year, Vice President Biden praised the company when he was there touring their facility.
VARNEY: Well, obviously, this was an embarrassment for Vice President Biden. Not just [calling the company "Enron 1"] but promoting a company which got government money which went bankrupt within a year. It's also a very big disappointment for President Obama's green energy policy. As you said there, Martha, Ener1 makes batteries for plug-in cars. Very little demand for those batteries. The company is now bankrupt. It got a $118 million grant, not a loan -- it got a grant of $118 million. Spent about $55 million of it, and now it is in Chapter 11. It's not going away completely. It'll stay in business, protected from its creditors. This thing is not going to expand, and a lot of money, taxpayer money, is gone.
MacCALLUM: That's an unfortunate growing list of those energy companies. [Fox News, America's Newsroom, 1/27/12]
Fox's Kelly: Ener1 Bankruptcy Is Part Of "The High-Profile Failure Of A Couple Of [Green Technology] Firms, One Of Which ... Is Called Solyndra." On the January 27 edition of Fox News' America Live, host Megyn Kelly led a segment about Ener1's bankruptcy by saying, "This is the latest controversy over federal efforts to fund green technology companies, and the high-profile failure of a couple of these firms, one of which, of course you've heard of, is called Solyndra." From the broadcast:
KELLY: Well, the White House is taking questions today about an electric car battery company that just filed for bankruptcy after it got more than a hundred million dollars of taxpayer money. This is the latest controversy over federal efforts to fund green technology companies, and the high-profile failure of a couple of these firms, one of which, of course you've heard of, called Solyndra. Trace Gallagher is here with more on the latest company. Trace?
TRACE GALLAGHER (Fox News correspondent): Megyn, this is called Ener1, and as you said, this a company that makes electric batteries for electric cars. The Department of Energy gave Ener1 a $118 million grant. And depending on how this Chapter 11 bankruptcy restructuring goes, taxpayers could get some of that money back, could get it all back, then again they may lose that money. Critics are saying this kind of points to whether or not the Obama administration is doing its homework when it comes to investing in these types of companies. At the State of the Union address last year, the president pointed out this country [sic] as exactly the type that we should be investing in. One day after that speech, almost exactly one year ago today, the vice president visited the Ener1 plant in Greenfield, Indiana. The vice president was there, again, touting Ener1. [Fox News, America Live, 1/27/12]
Bolling: Ener1 Is "The Latest Green Mistake By The Obama Administration" And "Is Being Called Solyndra Two Or Is It Solyndra Three"? On the January 27 broadcast of Fox News' The Five, co-host Eric Bolling began the show by airing a clip of Obama admitting in an ABC interview that he makes mistakes, then went on to attack Obama for the bankruptcy of Ener1:
BOLLING: The top story tonight: the mistake maker-in-chief, President Obama and I can finally agree on something. Take a listen.
[begin video clip]
DIANE SAWYER (host, ABC's World News): You don't second guess yourself?
OBAMA: I second guess myself constantly. Look, I make a mistake, you know, every hour, every day. You know, there are always things that you're learning on the job, and I have no doubt that I'm a better president now than the day I took office, just because, you get more experience.
[end video clip]
BOLLING: I wonder if this is what the president was talking about.
BOLLING: That was VP Biden at Ener1. One year ago, the latest green mistake by the Obama administration, this one is being called Solyndra two or is it Solyndra three, whatever. The problem is when Obama makes a mistake, it costs taxpayers billions. [Fox News, The Five, 1/27/12, via Nexis]
But Experts Say Ener1 Is "No Solyndra" ...
Battery Industry Expert: "Ener1 Is No Solyndra." In a January 28 post on the blog The Energy Collective, James Greenberger, executive director of a trade association for advanced batteries, wrote that "the near future" "of Ener1 ... looks far different than that of Solyndra following its bankruptcy" and concluded, "This is no failure." From Greenberger's post:
This past Thursday the bad news coming out of Ener1 seemed to culminate in the filing of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York.
What was announced on Thursday was, however, not the worst (unless you happened to be a common stockholder of Ener1) and may even be grounds for some optimism. The filing on Thursday was a "prepack", indicating that the major creditors of Ener1 have gotten together and agreed on a plan for Ener1 going forward. Those creditors, including Liberty Harbor Special Investments of New York, Itochu Corp. of Tokyo and Goldman Sach's Palmetto State Credit Union of Florida, will exchange their debt for all of the stock of Ener1. Trade creditors and employees will be paid in full. Operations at EnerDel in Indianapolis will continue. And most important, and most intriguingly, $81 million of new money will be invested in Ener1, according to the company's press release.
The future, or at least the near future, of Ener1, therefore, looks far different than that of Solyndra following its bankruptcy. Operations at EnerDel will continue. The technology and know-how that the $110 million DOE stimulus grants funded appears to remain intact. The market has not rejected that technology.
By all accounts [Ener1's] technology and knowledge base appears secure and about to be doubled-down upon by $81 million of new investment. This is no failure. [The Energy Collective, 1/28/12, emphasis added]
CNNMoney: "Unlike Bankrupt Solyndra ... Ener1 Promised Its Business Will Proceed As Usual." A January 26 CNNMoney article stated that "[u]nlike bankrupt Solynda ... Ener1 promised its business will proceed as usual." It went on to note, "The company said the 'voluntarily initiated' bankruptcy filing won't impact any of its subsidiaries, including EnerDel," the division that received a government grant. From the article:
Electric car battery maker Ener1 filed for bankruptcy Thursday, three years after receiving a $118.5 million grant from the U.S. government.
Ener1 (HEVV), which makes a variety of energy storage devices under different subsidiaries, is the parent company of EnerDel, the car battery division that received the government grant to help build a manufacturing plant in Indianapolis.
Unlike bankrupt Solyndra, the advanced solar panel maker that became a lightning rod for critics of Obama's stimulus spending when it closed its factory and liquidated, Ener1 promised its business will proceed as usual.
The company said the "voluntarily initiated" bankruptcy filing won't impact any of its subsidiaries, including EnerDel.
"The restructuring will not adversely impact their employees, customers and suppliers," the company said in a press release, noting there will be no layoffs as a result of the action.
The company blamed the bankruptcy on a slower than expected demand for electric vehicles.
Analysts have also said any electric car battery maker faces stiff competition from Asian firms, which are largely considered to be well ahead of the curve due to their long experience making batteries for electronics. Ener1 was thought to offer one of the best chances for an American company to compete in this field.
The company said that's still the case, and that the restructuring will allow it to reduce its debt and free up $81 million for capital spending. [CNNMoney.com, 1/26/12]
Reuters: Ener1 "Expects To Emerge From Chapter 11 Within 45 Days ... [Ener1 Says] No Jobs [Will] Be Lost Because Of The Filing." From a January 26 Reuters article:
Ener1 has $73.9 million of assets and $90.5 million of debts, according to its bankruptcy petition.
It filed a "prepackaged" reorganization plan that it said has support from enough creditors, and expects to emerge from Chapter 11 within 45 days.
It said the plan would slash long-term debt, provide up to $81 million of new equity financing, and allow it to honor its commitments, which it said include the provision of backup storage systems for the 2014 Winter Olympics.
Unsecured creditors would be paid in full, but holders of its 186.9 million shares would receive nothing, Ener1 said. No jobs would be lost because of the filing, it added.
Jen Stutsman, an Energy Department spokeswoman, called the bankruptcy "unfortunate," but said the proposed equity infusion "demonstrates that the technology has merit." [Reuters, 1/26/12]
Grist's David Roberts: "Substantively, Ener1's Restructuring Means Very Little." From a January 27 post on Grist:
You'll recall that ever since the Solyndra faux scandal, the right has been on the hunt for a "new Solyndra," another company that received help from the Dept. of Energy and subsequently went under. For a while the New Solyndra was going to be Fisker Automotive, for a while SunPower, but those attempts sank like a stone.
The latest candidate is lithium battery company Ener1, Inc., which just declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy as part of a long-term debt restructuring deal. Ener1′s subsidiary EnerDel received a $118.5 million grant as part of the stimulus bill. Rep. Cliff Stearns, the GOP's Solyndra point man, has a characteristically melodramatic statement out on it.
Substantively, Ener1′s restructuring means very little. As DOE spokesperson Damien LaVera pointed out, "This is one of 30 new advanced battery and electric vehicle component plants that the administration has invested in across the country." What matters is the success of the broad portfolio, and more important, the success of the industries and innovations the support is meant to stimulate. Of course there will be failures and setbacks along the way. In fact, Congress itself expected the DOE loan guarantee program to have a much higher failure rate than it has actually had; it set aside $2.4 billion in anticipation. That's the nature of supporting cutting-edge companies. [Grist, 1/27/12]
Green Car Reports: "Ener1 Files For Bankruptcy, But Isn't Dead." A January 30 post on High Gear Media's Green Car Reports site analyzed Ener1's financial history, then concluded that "unlike Solyndra and some other much-publicized green energy firms, Ener1's story doesn't look like it will end just yet." From the post:
But the real story of what happened to Ener1 goes beyond political posturing and back to the firm's connections with Norwegian electric automaker Think, maker of the diminutive two-seat Think City.
When Ener1 became the official supplier of battery packs to Think Global, Think had already been bankrupt twice before.
Shortly after Ener1 became official battery supplier for the Think, it was hit with the news that Think was in dire financial crisis. To help out and secure its own future, Ener1 helped provide the majority of funds in a $5.69 million bridge loan to Think.
For better or worse, Ener1 became an investor in a firm whose business it relied on to survive, a symbiotic relationship which would eventually prove catastrophic.
By the time Think entered its third bankruptcy in June last year, Ener1 owned 48 percent of the firm, and was forced to write off over $73 million in losses and accounts receivable against Think.
At that point, Ener1's house of cards started to fall down, with its shares entering free-fall as the stock market reacted to its Think-inherited debt.
But unlike Solyndra and some other much-publicized green energy firms, Ener1's story doesn't look like it will end just yet.
According to TheEnergyCollective, Ener1's Chapter 11 paperwork included details of how major creditors of Ener1 are already planning to write-off Ener1's debts against them in exchange for Ener1 shares.
At that point, trade creditors and employees will be paid, Ener1's EnerDel facility in Indianapolis will continue to operate, and an additional $81 million of private investment will be given to the company.
Ener1 may have inherited Think's debt, but it appears it has also inherited its abilities to rise again from the ashes of insolvency. [Green Car Reports, 1/30/12]
... And Fox Erased Ener1's GOP Support, Including That Of Gov. Mitch Daniels ...
Ener1 Press Release Notes "Bipartisan Cooperation By Senators Lugar and Bayh, and Gov. Daniels." In its August 2010 press release announcing the $118 million grant from the Energy Department, Ener1 credited GOP Gov. Mitch Daniels of Indiana for helping to secure its funding, along with then-Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN) and Sen. Dick Lugar (R-IN):
Economic growth is not a Democratic or Republican issue. This effort has been a model of bi-partisan cooperation by Senators Richard Lugar and Evan Bayh, and by Governor Mitch Daniels," [EnerDel CEO Ulrik] Grape said. "Their support has been tremendously important." [Ener1 Press Release, 8/5/10]
USA Today: Former Ener1 CEO Said That "No Single Individual Has Been More Important To Us Than Gov. Mitch Daniels." A January 27 USA Today article, titled, "Obama critic backed bankrupt clean energy firm," noted that Daniels had "championed" Ener1 and quoted a former Ener1 CEO as saying, "No single individual has been more important to us than Gov. Mitch Daniels." From the article:
Daniels, a former budget director in the George W. Bush administration, has backed Ener1 for several years. Ener1 has also received support from Sens. Richard Lugar, a Republican, and former Sen. Evan Bayh, a Democrat, who wrote a joint letter to Energy Sec. Stephen Chu in June 2009 backing the DOE grant.
Daniels, however, has stood out among lawmakers in his backing of the company.
"No single individual has been more important to us than Gov. Mitch Daniels, our advocate in chief in Washington and on missions abroad," said former Ener1 CEO Charles Gassenheimer at a 2010 event to announce the joint venture with the Chinese auto parts company.
Jake Oakman, a spokesman for Daniels, said on Friday that the governor had no comment about the bankruptcy. [USA Today, 1/27/12]
Grist: "Latest Clean Energy Faux Scandal Engulfs GOP Spokesman Mitch Daniels" And Other GOP IN Politicians. The January 27 Grist post described the support for Ener1 and its EnerDel division from several GOP Indiana politicians, including Daniels, Lugar, and Rep. Dan Burton. From the post:
In a shocking turn of events, Republicans have turned on the very man they chose to speak for them this week in response to Obama's State of the Union address -- Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels. He is taking a drubbing in the conservosphere, but what's most peculiar about the scandal that threatens to engulf him is that Republicans don't seem aware that they're attacking him.
Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) was a key advocate for EnerDel. He visited its factory in 2008 and said, "Fostering research for advanced batteries should receive high priority as part of our nation's effort to develop a diversity of energy sources." Here he is acknowledging the risks but saying that companies like EnerDel represent the future:
Lugar and Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.) sent a letter to energy secretary Steven Chu in 2009 that cites EnerDel's application for a loan under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, as well as its more recent application for funding under the stimulus bill, and says, "We add our individual voices to urge its favorable consideration." Egg on their face!
Of course everyone knows Lugar's a big RINO. What's perhaps more surprising is the heretofore undetected socialism hiding in the heart of hyper-conservative Rep. Dan Burton (R-Ind.), who in 2007 called EnerDel "the wave of the future ... cutting edge technology [that] will help relieve our dependency on foreign oil." Here he is bragging on the company's DOE partnership. Whoopsy.
Hm ... anyone else? Oh yes, here's one. In 2008, the "Indiana Economic Development Corporation offered EnerDel up to $7.125 million in performance-based tax credits and up to $58,000 in training grants." Those tax credits were unveiled by none other than Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels ...
Fox News is not going to be happy about this. [Grist, 1/27/12]
HuffPo: Daniels' Administration Granted Ener1 Over $7 Million In Tax Credits And "Praised It Effusively." In a January 26 article, The Huffington Post reported that Ener1 received "extensive aid" from Daniels, noting that his administration "granted the firm ... more than $7 million in tax credits." From the article:
Ener1 got a $118 million grant from the federal government in 2009. But it also got extensive aid from the Indiana Republican governor who delivered the GOP response to Obama's Tuesday address -- Gov. Mitch Daniels.
Daniels' administration granted the firm, which makes its batteries in Indiana, more than $7 million in tax credits, and praised it effusively.
"Eight hundred fifty jobs of any kind is great news," Daniels said at the time, in August 2008. "When those jobs are in a technology of tomorrow, like electric cars, it offers the prospect of even bigger news to follow. Indiana has what it takes to lead this automotive revolution and today is step one." [Huffington Post, 1/26/12]
Bloomberg Businessweek: "Ener1's Grant Application Received Bipartisan Support From Indiana Lawmakers" And Ener1 Received Millions In Grants "Under The George W. Bush Administration." A January 26 Bloomberg Businessweek article noted that the Ener1 grants received "bipartisan support from Indiana lawmakers" and went on to state that "the company got a $6.5 million Energy Department advanced-battery grant and a $4 million Defense Department research and development contract under the George W. Bush administration." [Bloomberg Businessweek, 1/26/12]
... Whom Fox Figures Fawned Over After His SOTU Response
Chris Wallace On Daniels: "A Star Is Born." During Fox Broadcasting's January 24 State of the Union coverage, Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace said that Daniels' response to President Obama's address was a "strong speech" and that "some of these responses from Republicans and Democrats fall flat; some of them, like [Daniels'], you'd say a star is born." Wallace concluded: "I think some people are going to be looking at that speech and saying, 'Why isn't he running for president?' " [Fox Broadcasting Co.'s State of the Union coverage, 1/24/12, via Media Matters]

GSA Answers President Obama's Call for Open Government
Agency Opens Up 12 Years of Federal Advisory Committee Data Online through Data.gov
Dec. 9, 2009
Contact: Caren Auchman, (202) 525-8165
WASHINGTON – Following yesterday's release of President Obama's Open Government Directive, the U.S. General Services Administration opened up 12 years of Federal Advisory Committee data. By making this valuable data available online for the first time through Data.gov, the public can now easily review and analyze the work of these committees that provide guidance on important issues affecting the American people.
"GSA is actively working toward a more transparent, participatory, and collaborative government by making information easily accessible and engaging the public in dialogue on important issues that affect their lives," said Michael Robertson, Associate Administrator of GSA's Office of Governmentwide Policy. "For the first time, the general public will have access online, at their fingertips to this rich universe of information through the Administration's transparency portal, Data.gov. By allowing the public to interactively compare and analyze this information, they can gain even more insight into the inner workings of their government."
Data made available will include tens of thousands of individual committee records, reports, and meetings detailing $3.24 billion in related spending. The new data includes information on 1,000 federal advisory committees for each year from 1997 through 2008, along with 11,430 individual committee records for 77,740 meetings; 11,317 reports; and 678,948 member entries.
Information available on Data.gov will be downloadable in XML (Extensible Markup Language) and spreadsheet formats allowing users to manipulate and use this data in conjunction with other data available on Data.gov, generating insight into the range of individuals and interests advising government. For example, membership data can be used to understand who advises the government and then can be compared with budget data to correlate advisory committee activity with current priorities.
In addition to helping operate Data.gov by posting and opening up government agencies' information and datasets, GSA runs USA.gov, the citizen's gateway to vital information on government services. GSA's Office of Citizen Services fosters public engagement by using innovative technologies to connect citizens to government information and services.
"As the citizen's portal to their government, GSA continues to answer the President's call for an open, participatory government. We are working to make USA.gov more collaborative and interactive to increase citizen engagement," said Dave McClure, Associate Administrator of GSA's Office of Citizen Services and Communications.
GSA's other programs also help foster collaboration between citizens and their government. GSA's Apps.gov Web site provides free social media and Web 2.0 tools to other government agencies enabling them to increase collaboration and public dialogue. GSA's Better Buy Project, a partnership with two not-for-profit partner organizations, allows the public direct input into improving the federal acquisition process. Better Buy uses collaborative technology to gather ideas from the public and then takes promising ideas to pilot them in upcoming acquisitions. Citizens can get involved by visiting www.BetterBuyProject.com.

Good Moms & Dads
By Rebecca Teti
Monday: Parenting
(Join each day's Coffee Talk discussion: Mon: Parenting; Tues: Open Forum; Wed: NFP; Thu: Marriage; Fri: Education; Sat/Sun: Changing Roles)
Terrible toddlers? Trying teens? Something in between? This weekly forum is the spot to share your questions and struggles about all things related to parenthood.
Please join us!
My 5-year daughter is a fussy eater, to say the least. What she likes she loves; what she doesn't like, or thinks she won't like, she won't even touch. We concentrate on having her try a mouthful or two at most of something at the least. Yesterday at dinner she wouldn't eat a simple mouthful of shepherd's pie. Even with the "carrot" of a St. Patrick's Day cookie she helped make dangling over her head, she wouldn't eat. Instead we had 20 or so minutes of crying and whining and histrionics. Finally, she announced she ate it. She had lied, and dumped it on the floor. How can I reasonably get this child to try healthy foods? Her diet is fairly unbalanced. Heavy on carbs, very low on fruits and vegetables. I know she is far more sensitive to tastes and smells than my other children who eat almost anything I serve. (And I don't make exotic foods. Everything is fairly kid-friendly.) She was the infant that would turn away from me if I tried to nurse her immediately after a shower. Any suggestions?
Carolyn, in our case, we quit fighting it. We had a child very sensitive to tastes and textures, like you said. In this case, he was also a very gentle soul, and wouldn't fight us. When we realized that he had gone almost a solid year without a bedtime snack or any treat because he hadn't eaten the dinner served, we realized there was no "carrot" that would work, and that's just who he was. I did my best to work with him, providing enough of what he would he, so he wouldn't be hungry, but not allowing him complete junk in place of what was being served to the family. I am happy to report that in this past week--spring break from college--he ate everything I put on the table--even the (real) carrots!! Many have told us we were in the wrong by giving in to his ways, but as his mother, I saw also that it was not really something he could control at a young age--he had a physical aversion to some tastes/textures, like some do because they may be allergic. I didn't want to punish him for being that way. We have one other child who is similar, but who fights us more--and I believe in his case that is his temperament, not his physical aversion to the taste texture. Like with other parenting challenges, we pray a lot, and do what we think best for the child, in spite of what others tell us we should do. If your child is growing, is basically healthy, and not living on soda and potato chips, I would think you're good. How many children in other parts of the world subsist on a diet of grains, and very limited food choices--I bet plenty. Prayers for your discerment and you decide best how to help her grow.
MARY THERESE ~ *LOVE* that reply! So beautifully-stated! It inspires me as a Mom to be in tune with my kids, aware of their needs, and set reals standards custom-made to *them.*
Does anyone have any suggestions for a child that is the exact opposite? From day 1 has been hungry all day long and has always been overweight and will eat 20 mini-carrots (but prefers chocolate candy)?
Anon, if he will truly eat anything, I'd make sure I was giving him only the healthiest!! As far as the overweight goes, you may want to talk to your pediatrician about it, but I will say this: my aunt's kids (who are about the same age as mine) have all been chunky. Her youngest was HUGE! Rolls everywhere. But the dad of the family is very muscular and strong, and all his kids are built like him. The fat has melted off all of them over time (though they are still "thick") and all of them get lots of opportunity to run around outside. Will they ever be supermodel-thin where you can see their ribs, etc? No way, but they are all very *healthy* and active. Everyone is just wired to be built differently. I am reed-thin (so are my parents), but my husband's side of the family is thick and our kids take after him. I just keep 'em movin'!! And I IGNORE the "wordly" idea of "pretty"/"handsome"!
Anonymouse - Not sure what kind of snacks you usually give her, but I wonder if protein-heavy snacks might sate her appetite for longer? If endless baby carrots don't make her feel full, she may be eating them and then still craving candy or something more. Nuts, cheese, yogurt, a hard-boiled egg, deli meat "roll-ups," peanut butter, etc. might be more satisfying.
Just wanted to mention that my son is almost 3, so I didn't want to restrict his food at 2, but lately I try to b/c it seems he'll eat non-stop. He eats healthy food as mentioned, peanut butter without sugar, jam, bread without added sugar. He'd want to eat 2 adult size greek yogurts if I'd let him. He gets junk food at church, holidays and when he's around his skinny friends that eat crackers instead of real food- he begs for those goldfish. I do think it's genetic but skipped my husband, and like "unknown" mentioned they are thick, but not flabby. I just don't have any experience as a child or adult even, not being allowed to eat whatever we wanted.
Anon, I am in total sympathy. My current 7 yo tends to be that type as well. As she has gotten older she has gone from thick to really a bit overweight. My husband and I have agonized over this b/c he didn't want me to say anything to her b/c he doesn't (rightly) want her to have a self-image issue. I have to say that he and I have always had to be careful with weight (with the military you have NO choice LOL). So given that background and the fact that childhood obesity has been one of the top priorities of the surgeon general in the last few years I think it is a topic you have to be aware of and address. I like the idea above about protein snacks. My other suggestions are to make set snack times and only allow him to eat only at the table ("mindful eating" ie you pay attention when you eat. Also have a snack time in am, afternoon and before bed. Good luck
anonymouse, I thought from your first post that your child was older, but at not-quite-3, I would keep doing what you're doing: offering healthy food, but not really restricting amounts. My little brother was a *chunk* at that age and now, at 27, is tall and thin. He was just storing up chub for those huuuge growth spurts. At that age, your son still needs lots of fat for brain development and to give him energy when he's growing and protein and carbs are needed too (obviously). So, if it's greek yogurt he wants, I don't see a problem with giving it to him, as long as the other suggestions (eat at the table, after each item [e.g. container of yogurt] wait a few minutes to see if you feel full, stick with healthy and filling things) are followed.
Just as a practical tip, I find it helps to tell the child before he eats how much he will get. So if I hand my son a yogurt container, I say, "One of these is your snack today." It is much easier to address it off the bat than to have to say, "No," later.
Anonymouse- We have the same problem! My son is 2 1/2 and he has been in the "obese" category at his well-child checks since 6 months. I have had multiple conversations with our ped and this is what we have done. We cut back to non-fat and 1% milk and restrict the milk intake to 12 -16 oz per day. We offer milk with meals for lunch and breakfast and then a small glass before bed. I do not offer snacks if he is engaged in playing but if he asks for a snack, I will provide 1 snack in between breakfast-lunch and lunch - dinner (each)- fruit or veggies only though. I provide a variety of fruits and veggies to keep it interesting - this is much easier in the summer!. I do cut him off at meals if I feel that he has been eating way too much. My ped told me to offer only 1 plate of food but I find that this is just not enough sometimes. I cook only lean meats - we do not eat red meat more that once or twice a month and then it is only the leanest ground beef. I do offer protein at every meal - it's more filling. We only eat out in restaurants once weekly and never at fast food. No sugared drinks at all. Outside playing at least 1 hour per day if not 2-3. That being said, we do eat cake at birthday parties and if our friends have "junk food" I let him have some. I always use positive terms for food and exercise. About how good it is etc. I don't focus on being fat or weight at all. My son's weight to height percentile is falling with these interventions and he's almost in the normal weight range! Good luck to you!
I know this is a little late, but we did tend to restrict my oldest child's intake when he was younger. We were not worried in the slightest about him being overweight (both his dad and I were big chunkers when we were babies) but we also didn't think he was really that hungry; he just loved eating and didn't seem to have an "off" button. Like the above post, he had a morning snack and afternoon snack at a parent-set time, and three meals. For us, it wasn't so much about the weight as the "discipline." I don't mean us disciplining him, but just general discipline with food intake. You do have to be watchful and use your intuition --- if it seems crazy to you in your situation to limit your child's food, don't do it! But for us it made sense. All that talk in baby books about letting the child regulate their intake and giving them as much as they wanted never would have worked for my child --- he would have been at the table all day. Now, he is almost eight and skinny as a rail. We still have two snacks and three meals, but I give him as many second (and sometimes thirds) as he wants!

Justin Bieber facing graffiti charges in Brazil
Listen to Justin Bieber on iHeartRadio
As if Justin Bieber didn't have enough issues while in Brazil, having been hit with a water bottle during a concert in Sao Paulo, grabbed by a shirtless male fan in Rio de Janeiro, and filmed sleeping by a woman in his room following a post-concert party, now he's been charged by Rio police for "defacing a building or urban monument by graffiti or other means."
Apparently, while the Biebs got the OK from the city to graffiti a wall in Rio's Olympic Village, he instead - trying to steer clear of his fans - tagged the wall of a nearby hotel.
In a statement from the Rio police, "Authorization granted by the city did not extend to other locations."
Bieber could be fined or even face one year in prison.
Officials, however, say the offense was minor and chances are Bieber would have to pay a fine at most.

Imagine taking what you've learned in chemistry class and using it to create products that improve the lives of others in both large and small ways. That's what a chemical engineer does: uses chemical processes to find innovative and creative ways of producing goods. The work of a chemical engineer can range from the luxurious (developing softer clothes and better cosmetics) to the lifesaving (producing fire-resistant materials and safer foods). As a chemical engineer, you might be involved in cutting-edge research at a pharmaceutical company, discovering how to extend the shelf life of antibiotics, or you might be part of a creative team at a food manufacturing company, dreaming up a delicious new candy bar.

Samsung Electronics has announced it has begun mass producing what it claims is the industry's first 4Gb DDR3 device using 40nm-class process technology.
Production of the 4Gb DDR3 raises the amount of memory for use in servers to 32GB per module, which is twice the maximum density achieved with modules based on 2Gb components.
With the start of volume 4Gb DDR3 production, Samsung plans to migrate more than 90% of its DDR DRAM production to 40nm-class process technology, to provide its customers with the most cost-efficient DRAM component available today, the company said.
The new 4Gb DDR3 supports both 1.5V and 1.35V specifications. Available memory modules include 16GB and 32GB RDIMMs, and 8GB SoDIMMs with a 1.6Gbps performance rate.

Mastoiditis is an infection of the mastoid bone of the skull. The mastoid is located just behind the ear.
Mastoiditis is usually caused by a middle ear infection (acute otitis media). The infection may spread from the ear to the mastoid bone of the skull. The mastoid bone fills with infected materials and its honeycomb-like structure may deteriorate.
Mastoiditis usually affects children. Before antibiotics, mastoiditis was one of the leading causes of death in children. Now it is a relatively uncommon and much less dangerous condition.
An examination of the head may reveal signs of mastoiditis. The following tests may show an abnormality of the mastoid bone:
A culture of drainage from the ear may show bacteria.
Mastoiditis may be difficult to treat because medications may not reach deep enough into the mastoid bone. It may require repeated or long-term treatment. The infection is treated with antibiotics by injection, then antibiotics by mouth.
Surgery to remove part of the bone and drain the mastoid (mastoidectomy) may be needed if antibiotic therapy is not successful. Surgery to drain the middle ear through the eardrum (myringotomy) may be needed to treat the middle ear infection.
Mastoiditis is curable with treatment. However, it may be hard to treat and may come back.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of mastoiditis.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if:
Promptly and completely treating ear infections reduces the risk of mastoiditis.

Which of the filler arc episodes is this supposed to have happened? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:00, March 25, 2013 (UTC)
- I think it's Mizuki Strikes Back Arc, but I don't know which episode that happened. —Shakhmoot (Talk) 17:28, March 25, 2013 (UTC)
I don't recall such thing--Elveonora (talk) 17:58, March 25, 2013 (UTC)
- I made the point to ask because the other technique article from a filler arc, created by the same user, turned out to be legit, so there's a good change this one is as well. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:23, March 25, 2013 (UTC)
How come has it been unnoticed since then till now? In case the name is actually stated and not made-up I mean, sigh, time to rewatch an old filler it seems. EDIT: the article's creator should say a word on this, would be nice of him to tell us the exact episode as well...--Elveonora (talk) 19:03, March 25, 2013 (UTC)
how come this is not in the right format, has major spelling errors, and is without any proof so far. I kinda remember the episodes and thought maybe 143 but am rewatching them now. either way, this needs cleaned up--126.96.36.199 (talk) 10:53, March 28, 2013 (UTC)
found it, its in episode 145, somewhere around 4:20. it looks just to be the false surrongings jutsu to me though--220.127.116.11 (talk) 09:38, March 29, 2013 (UTC)
I won't lie the name is made up but from what I've seen of false surroundings it can't be used in this manner. its not a paralysis Genjutsu just a distraction tactic. (In case your wondering I made the page) (Evilpuppy (talk) 15:17, April 1, 2013 (UTC))
ok ill give it that, from what I have seen of naruto it does not fit false surrondings. it prob is a genjutsu the animators made up, but should be added to his page none the less. --184.108.40.206 (talk) 03:04, April 10, 2013 (UTC)
In that cas can someone remove it from the delete list? (Evilpuppy (talk) 03:54, April 24, 2013 (UTC))
