What do pkmn do in there pokeball?
July 4th, 2004, 4:30 PM
I have always wonderd what happens when pokemon go in there pokeball?
July 4th, 2004, 4:42 PM
sorry fer dping but rong place please move to pokemon gereral er something!
July 5th, 2004, 5:40 AM
I think that Pokemon sleep so they can have their strength when it's time to battle.
July 7th, 2004, 1:53 AM
i saw 1 eppasode on tv where at the end ash recaled bulbasaur and bulba was just sittingthere waiting to be sent out into battle
July 7th, 2004, 1:59 AM
hmm.. like a little home :P
Jacob Madrox
July 7th, 2004, 10:25 PM
I think they have their own little peace of paradice in the pokeball. no, it was made by humans, could that be possible? XD really though, I think they either just sleep, or wait for the call to battle
July 8th, 2004, 5:25 AM
I've always thought that they just rested and slept....XD
July 8th, 2004, 7:48 AM
Same here, I also always thought that inside a pokeball is a bed and some hyper potions...hehe...
July 11th, 2004, 6:14 AM
I think once a pokemon is in the pokeball, the pokeball starts to make the pokemon's natural Habitat.

That's interesting--that's a cool answer!
July 11th, 2004, 8:05 AM
I saw a comercial once on Kids WB of ash getting sucked into a pokeball. It had palm trees and a pile of socks which were all of Ash's missing socks :laugh:. But I think that the pokemon are just cozy inside...like being curled up in a blanket or something.
July 11th, 2004, 9:16 AM
Well, on the episode where Misy caught Psyduck, it showed the inside of the pokeball and Psyduck was just sitting there confused. There was nothing in there but grey. Pretty boring.
July 12th, 2004, 3:17 AM
well, at first, they try to get out, but then they realized it was futile, so now they just sit their, hoping to be released again.
July 12th, 2004, 7:49 AM
Not always..
I honestly like the natural habitat idea. Sometimes we may sleep..but oftentimes we might sit in ther....possibly tapping the pokeball thingy to let u know were still there.
Some sort of holodeck technology..maybe..
July 12th, 2004, 3:30 PM
I think it is just resting inside the pokeball....i tink <---(think)
Cinder the Chao
July 15th, 2004, 2:04 PM
WELL...if you saw the Hypno Episode in Season 1, they're just shrunk to a smaller size, and talk to themselves.
July 16th, 2004, 5:12 PM
I think it should have A.I. and it adapts to what the Pokemon wants or is feeling. Like for Psyduck it is confused so it makes a bland gray.
July 17th, 2004, 1:19 AM
Same here, I also always thought that inside a pokeball is a bed and some hyper potions...hehe...
How could that be possible. That'd mean they heal when they come back pretty much, and the only way I know of healing when they come back is the ability natural cure.
I used to think there'd be a tredmil in there or something because they need their exercise. I mean a little animal shoved in a little ball... The only time I think my pokemon get fed is when they eat berries, have something out of the vending machine, or when they go to the pokecenter. I just don't know because I don't see any places to buy food in the world for humans or pokemon... which is weird... unless they eat some of the opponent... BITE!
July 17th, 2004, 7:43 AM
I have to agree with you. But the treadmill thing...I don't think so...they must be resting...
July 17th, 2004, 1:29 PM
I have to agree with you. But the treadmill thing...I don't think so...they must be resting...
Yeah, I really don't think there is a treadmill, but maybe something similar like some dumbells... I mean how do they work out and get their exercize. Being cooped up in a small room that can fit into your pocket isn't my idea of fun... They're like Genies when you think about it, just it's a ball not a bottle. So they probably have some poke food to live, not heal, and some pillows like a bed or something. Now it's probably not the best accomidations in the junker balls. I mean they try to escape right? So the master ball must be like the perfect most comfortable set up. Nice interior, good lighting, soft bed, delicious fruit, etc... So maybe they aren't exactly forced into the balls... that's actually kind of intresting when I think about it. That would make them perfer to stay with you, cause they don't have to hunt for food, just fight and grow stronger. I think that might be how it works... but then again I saw a picture of a pokemon in a pokeball and the top was invisible so it showed the pokemon filling the ball completely, just standing waiting to be set free. So then maybe the trainer threatens the pokemon to be locked up for a long time if they don't fight well or try to escape... Who knows?

July 20th, 2004, 11:32 AM
*didn't really read through the posts* Maybe it's like some virtual reality? Like it taps into the Pokemon's needs and wants? *shrugs* Either that,or they just sleep, wait, or play solitare.
*shrugs* I honestly haven't thought of it much.
Raichu Fan
July 27th, 2004, 6:35 PM
those are all great idea's but i've always thought it was like a little house or something in the pokeball, with like a bed in it or something
July 27th, 2004, 6:41 PM
Ash always said to take a rest whenever he returned his pokemon. So I am guessing they are sleeping.
July 28th, 2004, 2:20 PM
I think the answer is (according to serebii.net) that when a pokemon is in a pokeball, the pokeball "makes" the pokemon's natural habitat, so the pokemon live in their habitat in a pokeball. They must rest in "leaves" or "lava" or something like that. As for the gray habitat for psyduck, I have no idea.
July 28th, 2004, 7:54 PM
I've wondered the same thing and I got to the poin to which they are shrunk down into a much smaller form and are provided with a very relaxing vision of a possible habitat. If you ever see the inside of a pokeball, to me, it almost appears as if there are some kinds of projecting things around the sides of the inside. That could create a world that they live it or possibly a calm relaxing dream.
July 31st, 2004, 5:18 PM
i've never really thought about that, but i think they just rest or the ball has some sleeping pill or something ...
July 31st, 2004, 6:06 PM
i don't know, they rest and you post at the wrong place...
August 1st, 2004, 3:09 AM
I havenÇt seen those episodes, it would be funny to watch!
August 1st, 2004, 7:58 AM
I wish to see those episodes.
August 1st, 2004, 9:45 AM
Thy probably go inside,a hologram of their habitat appears, and they play and sleep untill they're called out.
Burne Starcofski
August 22nd, 2004, 7:45 PM
I can't decide what to believe, it all makes sense! (Except a few things, like the bed, treadmill, objects, etc.) But it all sounds cool, so is the Concept.
August 22nd, 2004, 9:21 PM
i think its a big empty place and wenever they find something they put it inside the pokeball :D
August 23rd, 2004, 2:30 AM
heres my guess:
they get transformed into light energy like a compressed winzip/rar file. they are still hear noises from the outside world, but they cannot see the outside world. while in the pokeball, they are considered to be resting.

August 23rd, 2004, 10:11 AM
Erh, it sounds good that it would be a paradise, but when tey go to ball, doesn't they come out of the ball in same position.. If they just "are" there?
I thinki they're some kind of dreamworld, what really isn't truea 'cause it's so small.
August 25th, 2004, 7:12 AM
I don't understand why (you) humans show this level of curiousity regarding what we do..Especially since the devices are more or less like cages to us.
CPU has the right idea in using them to **cough** arrest **cough** bad humans.
Your curiousity has intrigued me though. Could it mean that (you) humans actually care about the creatures you train?
I also find it interesting that so many of you think exactly the same things.

How Do They Fit *pokes Head*
September 3rd, 2004, 12:14 PM
I think it's like a mini house, like with multiple rooms that appear w/ a pkmn inside and they get like a kitchen, and living room with tv's.
September 3rd, 2004, 6:44 PM
same way pokemon do...it shrinks the ppl to fit

In the end of "Hypno's Naptime" Misty slips her pokeball out of her bag and it touches Psyduck who was behind her. Since Psyduck is so weak it easily got in. Then Misty complained about how she got such a weak pokemon. Then it showed Psyduck going "Psy-yi-yi!" in a gray background in a circle. This wasn't supposed to show what's inside a pokeball, it was just to finish off Misty's complaining by showing us how stupid Psyduck is and how hard it's going to be for Misty! It wasn't important, just to finish off the episode.
Heheh I got it on tape so I saw it over and over and over!
I have always thought, that when a pokemon goes into a pokeball, it doesn't become a pokemon anymore. Notice that when a pokemon comes out of it's pokeball it's a light substance....maybe they're like that in a pokeball? That would prove why Psyduck and Pikachu and Wobofett don't like it in there; they're not actually 'Pokemon' while in a pokeball!

ooo a human actually gets it right...
Pokeball turn matter into energy/data..thats why pokeball can help transfer things through computers and phones.

September 10th, 2004, 4:47 PM
Yeah, that's what I meant ;;^^;;;
September 10th, 2004, 5:43 PM
this is the greatest post of all time i have always wondered that but i never posted, it think they sleep, thats all they really can do i guess.
September 10th, 2004, 6:12 PM
Mr. Master, sir.
I was stating that in correspondane to my comment that a human actually understands how the darn thing works.
In most cases energy/data is not actually alive...so living things that are turned into energy/data technically go into a form of stasis.
Water Pokemon Master
September 10th, 2004, 6:32 PM
Why do you say 'humans' it's not like you're a pokemon yourself...
Anyway, yeah.
September 11th, 2004, 5:59 PM
i offically stopped decaring myself human after i was assimulated by the Kalon.. Now my genetics..and whatever is happening to them (Darn CIA) is attempting to reverse the assimulation..and i guess turn me into something else.. (Genetic Resequencing..But i like the psychic powers that it gave me...tooo bad i have no control of the telepathy..)
(No sign of telekensis yet..)
(I have seen this resequencing done...and i ran a similar experiment..)

September 11th, 2004, 6:07 PM
(plays along)Wow, that' amazing!
I have a question, if pokemon sleep in their pokeball...how do they look wide awake and ready for battle when they come out? Well, except for Charizard who got out of his pokeball sleeping :p.
September 12th, 2004, 12:37 PM
they not necessarily asleep...just converged as data.
Water Pokemon Master
September 12th, 2004, 1:00 PM
Hmm...I like that data conversion theroy.
September 12th, 2004, 1:33 PM
how else do u expect to be able to transfer the things online??
**oo well its official..humans dont make any sense**
Water Pokemon Master
September 12th, 2004, 3:44 PM
We don't make sense? Weren't you once a human?
September 12th, 2004, 8:46 PM
the only thing is, man must have created all Pokemon for that theory to work. you can't take a living animal, and force it to exchange matter into data which you can exchange back to complete matter. and the only completely man made Pokemon was Porygon and Porygon2. so you would be right, but only if man created Pokemon.
but the theory is really cool. it all makes you think.
i think they dream. and i don't think they age while being in a Pokeball.
September 16th, 2004, 9:20 AM
apparently noones heard of matter anti-matter reactors (the technology behind the transporters in Star Trek)
Data stasis is almost like a sleep...and it may be correct in stating that they dont age in there.
(why did I say "they" when "we" are all alike..)
my humanity was extremly short lived
(and yes..thanks to the Aquillian renegades..humans DO have the chance to so such things.. **looks at cameras revealing genetic labs in an old school building** see what i mean??)
September 21st, 2004, 3:47 PM
i understand..... and i thought it was just virtualization and materialization like in Code Lyoko... and if that's true, it would explain why pokemon turn to red light when they enter a pokeball and why a beam of red light(laser) can bring them back in and(rambles on for an hour).....
September 22nd, 2004, 6:32 AM
Actually LG..you are correct in that aspect. Thats how matter/anti-matter reaction works..
September 22nd, 2004, 4:05 PM
::bwhahaha:: roleplay :laugh:
September 23rd, 2004, 8:01 AM
I think that Pokemon sleep so they can have their strength when it's time to battle.
Its a personilized room for the pokemon depending on its type like a :9: would have a pool and the better the pokebal the better the luxury
September 24th, 2004, 11:04 AM
They are just in stasis. They don't rest or sleep, otherwise there would be almost no need for Pokemon Centers.
And if anything else goes on in them, it's their business and not mine... Too much information...
An interesting question would be, What if Ash does a Critical Miss and accidentally traps Brock, or someone else in one?? What would happen then??
Brock! I choose you!! Heh heh...

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- Sweden's Supreme Court Thursday issued an irreversible life sentence to Mijailo Mijailovic for fatally stabbing Swedish Foreign Minister Anna Lindh.
In January, the 26-year-old confessed to stabbing Lindh Sept. 11, 2003, outside a Stockholm department store, and was convicted of the murder by a district court. That was overturned on appeal, and he was sentenced to psychiatric detention.
Mijailovic was also ordered to pay about $15,000 in damages to the family of Lindh, who was 46 when she was killed.
CNN said Mijailovic's lawyer, Mikael Nilsson was seeking to have his client transferred to serve his sentence in Serbia-Montenegro, his parents' homeland.
"He will try to be transferred away from Sweden and serve his sentence there," he told Swedish radio.
Mijailovic confessed to police in January, saying inner voices speaking in Serbian told him to attack, and he believed it was the voice of Jesus.

I just downloaded and installed the latest ZA to update my existing install. On reboot, Prevx says it blocked klif.sys in /system32/drivers/. i searched the net and there was no clear answer. Many thought it was part of Kaspersky anti-virus (which I believe ZA uses). The majority seemed to view it as a dangerous/hostile file. None of the file sizes matched what is installed in my machine.
Is it from ZA. Is it definitely OK. What should the file size be.

Unilever and the University of Cambridge Programme for Sustainability Leadership (CPSL) announced the seven finalists for the inaugural Unilever Sustainable Living Young Entrepreneurs Awards this week. The international awards program is designed to inspire young people around the world to tackle environmental, social and health issues.
Unilever received 510 entries from entrants 30 years and under, who hailed from an impressive 90 countries. The chosen finalists submitted scalable and sustainable solutions that enable changes in practices or behaviors in sanitation and hygiene; water scarcity; greenhouse gases; waste; sustainable agriculture; and helping smallholder farmers, according to Unilever.
"We are delighted to have had such a great number of entries, and of such high calibre from all corners of world. The entries provide proof – if it were needed – of a young generation of leaders eager to develop their fledgling businesses into ones that could genuinely make a big difference," Unilever CEO Paul Polman said in a press release.

Judges were looking for inspiring practical, tangible solutions to help make sustainable living commonplace. All in their 20s, the finalists hail from all corners of the globe, with the notable exception of winners from Europe or the U.S. – underscoring the uptick of sustainable education in the developing world.

The finalists will take part in a four-week development program followed by an accelerator workshop in Cambridge, where expert guidance will be provided to help them develop their ideas. The workshop will be followed by a pitch to a panel of judges in London, comprising entrepreneurs and leaders from business and sustainability.
"We have been immensely impressed by the strength and diversity of the applicants in this first year of the awards," Polly Courtice, CPSL director, said in a press release. "We look forward to welcoming the finalists to Cambridge and starting to support a vibrant new network of young leaders for change."
The winner and finalists will attend a dinner in London on Jan. 30 to receive their prizes. The grand prize winner will receive €50,000 ($68,025) in financial support and individually tailored mentoring, and the six finalists will each receive €10,000 in financial support and mentoring. Four runners-up will also receive an online development program to help them further develop their ideas.
The 2014 program launches next summer, and young entrepreneurs willing to participate can register on the Ashoka Changemakers platform.

Re: Hypothetically if your daycare provider.....
It does sound like he needs his hearing checked. I've known a couple kids who's speech improved dramatically after getting their hearing tested and got tubes.

Re: Hypothetically if your daycare provider.....
Re: what you said earlier about her not having a standard to compare him to, like other kids herself or in the family, sorry, but no. I am a FTM and had my kid in birth to three at age 1. I have no kid experience AT ALL. It really sounds like she is in denial.
I also don't really buy that the doctor said that. I mean, yes, she could have said that you brought it up, but that doesn't change the fact that HE HAS NO WORDS!! This would have to come up in a discussion btw parent and doctor regardless of whether you brought it up or not. Either that, or the doctor is a total loser, which is possible, but I think not likely. I get that some doctors may under-refer, but seriously, no words at age 27 months??? Something is wrong, it should be addressed, and I applaud you for trying to help him.
I can see why you would be angry that the doctor seemingly dismissed your concerns, but I do wonder again, whether she unintentionally misconstrued what he said.
They did some sort of evaluation at my daughter's daycare. It was not an official test, just like, they have parent-teacher conferences once a year (in the one yr old room) so they had a check list.
I still think pushing her toward birth to three, perhaps delicately and while talking about the attributes of the program, is the way to go. Maybe she doesn't even know it exists?

Re: Hypothetically if your daycare provider.....
I trusted the people we used for 9 years. If they pointed out a concern to me that they've seen in my child compared to 5-10 children of the same age damn right I'd get it looked at. I'd push for testing for sure there's no harm only a benefit for my child. imo. Hopefully, language development will come up at the well visit, it did for us but all peds are different.

As previous poster wrote, put it in the form of a question, now that would work on me and not offend. Children who are born in hospitals, don't they have their hearing tested at birth? Sending the test thing home with all children makes sense too. That way she can't be offended if everyone got one. Now if you tell her that and she talks to other moms who didn't receive them, that could start trouble also. So if you do do that make sure everyone gets one.

Re: Hypothetically if your daycare provider.....
Okay, here is a point of clarification: What is the mom's attitude to the pedi's dismissiveness? Is she nonchalant, like, "Oh, it's not a problem bc the Pedi said so" or is she more hesitant/questioning/exasperated with the doc?
If she seems AT ALL receptive to your concerns (has she ever said that she agrees/notices the same things?) maybe suggest that "the pedi will take it more seriously if YOU say that YOU have noticed this instead of DCP."
I WOH FT and get 2.5-3hrs with DD M-F including daycare pickup, dinner, bath, bedtime, and repeat calls for water and blankies :-) I would definitely, definitely notice if she was unable to do something, struggling, etc. She has been in daycare since 10 weeks (2YO now) and I honestly can't think of a single time that she did/didn't do something that the DCP had to point out to us (our answer has always been "Yup... been doing that at home too. So cute/weird/annoying/funny..." So if the mom's not sharing your concerns at all... the more I think about it, the more of a concern that becomes. The mom should be aware and should understand (internally, really understand) that these problems should be evaluated.

Re: Hypothetically if your daycare provider.....
Ugh first off I am sad for those that wish to spend more time with their children but can't. If I had a dcp that I trusted (wouldn't send my DS to one who I didn't) then I would listen and be as concerned as dcp about these things, It could be nothing but it could be a delay that can be worked on now so it doesn't. My DS was a late talker but now he is just three had 6 months of speech therapy and is doing great. So great he doesn't need it anymore. But at the time of the test it was a very grey area where is was just below what was expected. He got some help and is doing better. I was so happy for the help and would welcome anyone who cares about me and my Ds to speak up if they see a problem.
I think you need to consider this moms personality and relationship with her child before decided to give this test to her and recommend more help from pedi. I want to say yes do it but if she will likely close down on you then it may not be worth it? And from there I may try to keep a daily log for all kids and progress and stuff. Which you may already do? And let her know that you will be there for her if she need help. And if it can be built into your day activities to help this little one.

Re: Hypothetically if your daycare provider.....
I don't mean to be stereotyping or anything but is english her first language? Are they new Americans?
I only ask because maybe she just took what the doctor said because that's all she knows, some people trust their doctors 100% and don't question anything esp. immigrants who have not experienced stellar health care.
I'm wondering if there is some way you might suggest you go with her as an advocate to the doctors appointment. Maybe she needs someone with her to ask questions she doesn't think of or can't ask for some reason.
Honestly I would be really concerned for the little boy, that he get tested appropriately and I would probably be VERY frank with the parent and say look here is what I have seen and I really think he needs to be tested.
Hurt feelings or not the little boy needs some help.

Re: Hypothetically if your daycare provider.....
I really feel for the provider (OP, right?) in this scenario. It's a tough place to be in, especially when you see the child in a different/group setting for an extended period of time. I know the provider isn't a physician, but then again a physician isn't seeing the day-to-day activities and interactions that could indicate a problem. And being an MD doesn't make you infallible. I was the caregiver for an infant with severe physical issues (missing kidney, heart malformation, pinched trachea) that were linked to cognitive delays, and it took his pediatrician 9 months to find anything wrong! The mom and I were both beside ourselves trying to keep this kid healthy, and the pediatrician just kept refilling the antibiotic Rx.
So might some moms be offended? From PP on here I guess so, but if the concern is coming from a genuine and caring place, and the issues are raised in a respectful manner, then I think it's worth taking the chance in order to get early intervention where needed.
Registered Users
I wouldn't be offended. I like the idea of the informal evals done by the pp's dcp and results brought up at a conference. Even if its more informal than that, could you print out a "what to expect at age _" and check off the things? And do one for each child if each age. Then say to each parent, thought you'd like to see how they are progressing or w/e.
I'm shocked at the number of people who'd be all offended and leave your care. I used to teach in preschools and daycares and we had no problem bringing up concerns. Frankly, I wouldn't send my child to someone who wouldn't notice or say things they were concerned about. We had many kids there from 6:30am-6:30pm and they would get home at 7, eat, bathe, bed before 8 ang gym nursery/babysitters on weekends so we spent more waking hours with their kids and noticed more. We had a 3 yr old who had many issues that we believed were hearing related. Mom brushed us off time and again and even the doc did a cursory hearing test. We pushed and it turns out he had severe hearing deficiencies. We had been telling her since he was 2.
I wouldn't even mind if you had done a few of the things on the test and gave me a copy and said, "I'm not an official evaluator but I do this with my kids to make sure everyone is ready for preschool (or w/e) and I have some concerns. Maybe you can read thru and see if you notice the same things?"

Strategic directions
Providing strategic information on human resources for health
Having the right evidence and information is vital to guide policy-making and to monitor trends and assess progress. It needs to include both quantitative and qualitative data, as well as evidence from countries and information on norms, standards and guidelines.
Improving data collection, maintaining updated global and regional health workforce databases and building country profiles will lead to better analysis of trends, better policy formulation and more effective action. Standards and definitions will be harmonized and tools and mechanisms – such as health workforce observatories – will provide support at country, regional and global levels.
To expand the information base so it can be used to evaluate interventions, it will be important to promote research in neglected areas and the timely dissemination of research results. Input will be sought from researchers, research partnerships, WHO collaborating centres, NGOs, technical and financial partners, and from country policy and decision-makers.
- Handbook on monitoring and evaluation of human resources for health
- Global atlas of the health workforce
- Sources and classification of health workforce statistics
- HRH observatories
- African platform on human resources for health
Promoting strategic investment in health workforce development
WHO will work with partners and Member States to increase the levels of financial resources available for health workforce development and to ensure that these resources are invested efficiently and effectively.
WHO will build strategic alliances with partners and international institutions, including e.g. USAID, PEPFAR, JICA and the European Commission.
- Education and training
- International Course on Strategic Planning for Human Resources for Health
- Masters Degree programme with a focus on health workforce development
- WHO Fellowship Programme
- HRH for Africa digital resource center
- Eastern Mediterranean Regional Health Professions Education Directory
- Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) Virtual Campus of Public Health
- PAHO Expanded Textbooks and Instructional Materials Program (PALTEX )
- WHO Regional Office for Western Pacific - Pacific Open Learning Health Net
- Resolution WHA59.23 - Rapid scaling up of health workforce production
- Resolutions addressing health workforce policies, endorsed by the WHO Regional Committee for Europe
Promoting innovative approaches to harmonize health workforce policies and programmes across the life-course of the population
An exclusive focus on specific health goals results in a silo approach. Specific disease control programmes have spawned health workers whose functions are similarly "siloed". For example, there are health workers who work exclusively in the fields of polio, or AIDS, etc. Silos also exist in the training of health professionals, with little contact between professional groups, hindering the building of effective teamwork among professionals.
WHO will therefore seek innovative solutions to ensure that all health care needs are addressed across the life-course of the population in an integrated way. This means developing health workers and teams who are skilled in handling the health problems of all age groups, from infants to the elderly, as well as working across the variety of specific disease control programmes, and integrating programmes focusing on children, pregnant mothers, persons with AIDS, TB, and malaria with a wider health agenda. One way to do this is through interprofessional education and collaborative practice between professional groups.
- Health-related Millennium Development Goals
- Health workforce migration and retention
- Interprofessional education and collaborative practice
- How can optimal skill mix be effectively implemented and why?
- Do lifelong learning and revalidation ensure that physicians are fit to practice?

Letter: A voter's guide for the faithful
Many parish churches display a pamphlet called the "Voter's Guide for Serious Catholics," which lists five non-negotiable issues: abortion, euthanasia, embryonic stem cell research, human cloning and homosexual marriage.
I'm wary of this list because the Catholic Church has a long history of being on the wrong side of moral issues: Galileo, Inquisition, witchcraft, killing heretics at the stake, slavery, civil rights, women's rights.
Given that history, I say toss the manmade list. Instead, voters should rely on God's gift to us all: our critical-thinking brain.
Wouldn't Jesus want us to support: healthcare for all; ending the war in Iraq; science so that we may lessen the suffering from horrible diseases and illnesses; helping the poor; protecting the environment; providing medical care to the 30,000 children who will die every day from preventable causes.
Although the Bible says nothing explicitly on stem cell research, it says a lot about "the rich"(it's easier for a camel to fit through the eye of the needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom).
Thus, is it Godly to vote for a candidate whose policies favor the rich and forget the poor? If more guidance is needed, turn to the bible, in particular the Sermon on the Mount.
Faithful voters should ask themselves, which candidate will more likely protect the poor, feed the hungry, and encourage the peacemakers? Vote accordingly.

Referendum on gay marriage to be held in 2014
TANAISTE Eamon Gilmore says there will be a referendum on gay marriage next year, marking the first definite coalition comments on when the potentially divisive poll will take place.
The Government's own constitutional think-thank voted overwhelmingly in favour of gay marriage earlier this year, pushing it up the political agenda.
The Constitutional Convention is due to send its report on gay marriage to the Government soon, and ministers have four months to decide their response to it.
The Coalition is likely to agree to a referendum on gay marriage, and Mr Gilmore now says it will happen next year.
While some in Fine Gael would prefer to push the referendum back further, the Tanaiste told an event organised by the Gay and Lesbian Equality Network (GLEN) it will "realistically" happen in 2014.
"I suppose realistically we're probably looking at next year sometime," Mr Gilmore told the event in Google's European headquarters on Dublin's Barrow Street.
The Tanaiste was asked about a referendum during a question-and-answer session at the GLEN event.
Mr Gilmore replied: "Well the commitment we have given is that once the Constitutional Convention presents its report in respect of the part of the Constitutional Convention dealing with same-sex marriage, that report is going to be tabled I think this month, formally tabled.
"There is then a four-month period for the Government to consider the report of the Constitutional Convention.
"We have committed that we will make a decision within that four-month period on what would be our response to the Constitutional Convention. Then in the case of a referendum on same-sex marriage, it would then be an issue of when that takes place after that.
"I suppose realistically we're probably looking at next year sometime."
Coalition sources said the referendum was likely to be held alongside votes on other issues recommended by the Constitutional Convention, such as decreasing the voting age to 16.
One source joked that the Government might need "traffic lights" for the amount of referendums coming. Others said issues surrounding same-sex adoption, surrogacy and other areas had to be dealt with before a gay marriage referendum.
Justice Minister Alan Shatter is due to publish legislation dealing with those areas by the end of the year.
Although Taoiseach Enda Kenny has so far declined to give his own view on gay marriage, he is not expected to block a referendum. Mr Kenny's spokesman says he will make a statement in "due course".
Mr Kenny had indicated the gay marriage poll would take place next year but Mr Gilmore is the first cabinet member to put a timeframe on it.

BOSTON (CBS) – Only three of the 12 members have been named yet, and they won't even begin meeting for a few more weeks, but already it's looking like that new "super-committee" — charged with hammering out the reasonable budget-and-debt-reduction plan the full Congress couldn't accomplish — is going to need a new name.
Something like: super-fiasco.
I hope I'm wrong.
Listen to Jon's commentary:
But when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid kicks things off by nominating the likes of John Kerry and Patty Murray, who've spent much of the past week demonizing the opposition with harsh partisan rhetoric; and Nancy Pelosi, who will nominate the rest of the Democrats on the super-fiasco, goes on the road to tell audiences the Republicans don't even care about deficit reduction, but are just using that as cover to "destroy" Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security; can anyone doubt that the GOP leaders will respond in kind?
They've already tried to claim that taxes are off the table for committee discussion, so their appetite for compromise was dubious even before this ruinous display of spite by the Democrats.
Like I said, I hope I'm wrong.
But for now at least, Washington appears to me to be a hopeless cesspool of partisan selfishness, personal narcissism, and ideological obsession.
Weak, unimpressive leaders, whipsawed by narrow-minded, self-serving underlings and special interests, justifying their failure by pretending they're really standing up for principle when they've all seemed to forget the underlying principle of a functioning democracy — you've gotta find a way to compromise.
There are good people in DC, who care about our country more than themselves, I'm sure of it.
All I can say to them is, speak up now, or forever hold your peace.
You can listen to Keller At Large on WBZ News Radio every weekday at 7:55 a.m. and 12:25 p.m. You can also watch Jon on WBZ-TV News.

Earlier this month, Drupal 7 was released. Drupal 7 is a "friendly and powerful content management platform for building nearly any kind of website: from blogs and micro-sides to collaborative social communities" (from the Drupal site). Over the past couple of years, through collaboration with the Drupal community, Microsoft has worked to help enable support for Drupal on the Microsoft Platform. This has included support for running Drupal on Windows Server, as well as Drupal being available in the Microsoft Web Platform installer.
Today, the Microsoft Interoperability team has announced a slew of new improvements that bring even better Drupal interoperability with the Microsoft platform! These include:
- Inclusion of Drupal 7 in the Microsoft Web Application Gallery & newly released Microsoft WebMatrix tool. This is THE easiest way to get started creating a Drupal site on Windows!
- Drupal 7, using a new PDO-based data access layer, comes with support for Microsoft SQL Server "out of the box".
- 4 new Drupal modules to enable administrators/developers to provide their users with new features including: Bing Maps for Drupal, Silverlight Pivot viewer for Drupal, Windows Live ID for Drupal, and oData for Drupal.
- Demonstration of ongoing work with PHP & Windows Azure, showing how to run Drupal on Windows Azure.
These announcements are great stuff, and I'm happy to finally see these things be released after being aware of their development for a while now. One thing that is of interest to me given my focus on the Azure platform lately, is to see Drupal running on Azure. My teammate, Jim O'Neil, showed how to use the new Windows Azure Companion to get WordPress running last fall. I'm happy to see that the companion tool can also be used to get Drupal 7 running in Azure too! The (long) blog post that Jas Sandhu wrote up, features plenty of screenshots detailing all of the steps to get it running.

Caddington Scout Group has received a donation from their local caring Co-op after a massive Christmas and New Year fundraising effort.
Scout Leader Rita Tims had a surprise phone call from village Co-op store manager Kevin Harris to tell her that generous customers had given £400 over the festive season.
The shop nominated the Scout Group as their Christmas charity and staff sold reindeer food and Santa Claus treats of mince pies. A raffle included a first prize of a £60 hamper.
Kevin said: "We run regular charity efforts throughout the year and raised £2,000 in 2013. But the Scouts were top of the list."
Rita said: "You have no idea how welcome this windfall is. We have just been told we need to update the electrics of our 25-year-old headquarters and now we can do it and take the Scouts camping."
Beaver Scouts Kara Morley and Charlie Morland, aged seven, were given the important job of counting out the cash donation one note at a time. The wide-eyed youngsters said: "We've never seen so much money before. And we had to make sure it was right." Other Scouts who came to say thank you to the Co-op were Adam Grimes and Alex Collins ,aged 13, and Callum Shepherd and Ellie Astridge, aged 10.

that strenghten the body organs and help in retain youth.
Many useful application. We are researchers. In these years our
school has developed and continue to develop new techniques and
Therapy: how to deal with addiction (for example
Campanelli's method stop smoking in 45 seconds), phobias and
trauma cures, how to deal with anxieties etc... Many
applications for headaches, muscular tensions, digestive
problems and for many other types of physical problems etc...
The non verbal approach is very effective. The external self is
primarily verbal, whereas one's inward identity is primarily
non-verbal. Other: creativity and learning with quantistic
methodologies. Inner development. Strenghtnening your personal
Deep Trances states: Deep states are very useful as they will
bring your client to another dimension of being where he will
feel his entanglement with the universe in a different way. He
will feel transformed after returning from this wonderful state.
In deep hypnosis we use an approach which is different from the
techniques of hypnotherapy, where we use the wiring of our ego,
and reframe our behavior. Thinking is the activity of the
exterior self. It ends up being no more than an inner dialogue
which delays and conceals the self-perception which, on the
contrary, knows what to do and how to do it. In the deep states
of hypnosis we reach a level where we access a space before the
ego, and are in connection with a deeper dimension of being,
with what in quantum terms we would call "the implicate level".
When reaching these levels, we can have spontaneous healings or
faster healings. This is due to the fact that the subject will
be in a specific state and freer from material constraints. He
will also be beyond his past conditioning. He will be more in
touch with his inner core where he can connect to a natural
wisdom that heals spontaneously. In these states you could touch
a level of joy and a deep discovery of the self which you didn't
imagine could exist. Many times people will also say what the
best way to treat him is, or the words which will be more
suitable for his transformation (technically is called
Puysegur's method). After awakening many times they will be no
more able to remember what they said, but they will feel the
effects and be transformed anyway.
The location of the courses
Our resident

To strenghten
your mesmeric power, we have realized a magnetic group in Nice. You will have the
possibility yo participate in it. It's goal is of creating a
strenght center from wich create telepathic bridges to help our
student in getting the maximum result..
difference between Hypnotic fascination and modern
in modern hypnosis the biggest effort is in gaining
rapport, in hypnotic fascination in avoiding the subject react to
modern hypnosis the word is king, in hypnotic fascination the
most modern hypnosis is about relaxing, hypnotic fascination
about tension
modern hypnosis
is very slow compared to fascination. Many time we can reach a
state of complete amnesia in 3-4 seconds from
the begin of the induction, even with people with whom we have
never worked before. Many researchers of hypnosis aknowledge
that amnesia without suggestion is linked to very profound
fascination is very therapeutical. In the fascinative state we
can have immediate therapeutical results.
Come and we make
you believers!

Researchers propose cloud-brightening to avert strong storms
By Summit Voice
SUMMIT COUNTY — While hurricanes are often feared as a destructive force of nature, they are also one of nature's great climate regulators, helping to disperse ocean and atmospheric heat away from the equatorial region.
But some environmental scientists think it might be a good idea to reduce the intensity of hurricanes by seeding clouds to decrease sea surface temperatures when hurricanes form. Theoretically, the scientists claim the technique could reduce hurricane intensity by a category.
The team focused on the relationship between sea surface temperature and the energy associated with the destructive potential of hurricanes. Rather than seeding storm clouds or hurricanes directly, the idea is to target marine stratocumulus clouds, which cover an estimated quarter of the world's oceans, to prevent hurricanes forming.
"Hurricanes derive their energy from the heat contained in the surface waters of the ocean," said Dr Alan Gadian from the University of Leeds. "If we are able to increase the amount of sunlight reflected by clouds above the hurricane development region then there will be less energy to feed the hurricanes."
Along with dispersing summer heat, hurricanes also play an important role in the maintenance of many marine ecosystems, including mangrove-coral atolls, where the storms help clean away sediment. In some cases, they help build new land areas.
Nevertheless, the University of Leeds team says it could be worth pursuing the idea of weakening hurricanes if it can be shown that there would be no adverse impacts, including affects such as reduced rainfall in other areas.
"Much more research is needed and we are clear that cloud seeding should not be deployed until we are sure there will be no adverse consequences regarding rainfall," concluded Gadian. "However if our calculations are correct, judicious seeding of maritime clouds could be invaluable for significantly reducing the destructive power of future hurricanes."
The researchers propose using marine cloud brightening, which has also been eyed as a way to reduce large-scale global warming. Under their theory, unmanned vehicles could spray tiny seawater droplets, a good fraction of which would rise into the clouds above, increasing their droplet numbers and thereby the reflectivity and duration of clouds. That would bounce more sunlight back into space and reduce sea surface temperature.
"Data shows that over the last three decades hurricane intensity has increased in the Northern Atlantic, the Indian and South-West Pacific Oceans," said Gadian. "We simulated the impact of seeding on these three areas, with particular focus on the Atlantic hurricane months of August, September and October."
The calculations show that when targeting clouds in identified hurricane development regions the technique could reduce an average sea surface temperature by up to a few degrees, greatly decreasing the amount of energy available to hurricane formation.
One potential drawback to the idea is the impact of cloud seeding on rainfall in neighbouring regions. The team noted concerns that seeding in the Atlantic could lead to a significant reduction of rainfall in the Amazon basin and elsewhere. However, if different patterns of seeding were used, such rainfall reductions were not found over land.

I have to brag a bit. We followed the Western NC quilt trail when I was researching my novels. My husband took quilt barn pictures. Two of his photos are featured on their 2011 calendar. Also my book should be ready for purchase in about two weeks. We're doing a happy dance here. Order a calendar to support the quilt barn projects.
