In the work, first author Ayodeji Asuni immunized homozygous P301L mutant tau-expressing mice, a strain that has a rapid and massive buildup of hyperphosphorylated, aggregated tau reminiscent of frontotemporal dementia in humans. Vaccination with a phospho-tau peptide led to the production of antibodies that recognized the immunogen, and pathological tau on brain sections. Immunizing young animals starting at 2 months of age led to reductions in tau histopathology at 5 or 8 months, in some brain regions by as much as 96 percent. The greatest reduction was seen in tau aggregates recognized by the MC1 antibody, an earlier stage of tau pathology compared to the paired helical filaments picked up by the PHF1 antibody, which were also reduced but not as dramatically.
The clearance of tau was associated with behavioral improvements in the mice, who normally lose motor skills as tau accumulates. At 5 months of age, the immunized mice displayed better balance on a rotating rod and an elevated beam. The effects diminished with time: by 8 months of age, the immunized animals still performed better than controls, but their abilities had decreased compared to 5 months. Because of their profound motor deficits, extensive cognitive testing is difficult in these mice, and other models will be needed to assess the effect of tau removal on learning and memory.
How might vaccination clear tau from neurons? The researchers showed that the antibodies generated in immunized animals are capable of entering the brain, possibly because tauopathy compromises the blood-brain barrier. Once there, antibodies can be taken up by cells by one of several endocytic pathways, and the investigators show colocalization of antibodies with pathological tau deposits. In the cells, Sigurdsson speculates, the antibodies serve to promote disassembly and degradation of tau assemblies. "In my opinion, the antibodies are more likely to clear smaller assemblies of tau aggregates than tangles," he told ARF. However, a separate, detailed study on tau forms present in brains of treated mice will be required to establish just which forms are targeted by immunotherapy. Nonetheless, tau makes the second case of successful immunization against intracellular neuronal proteins, the first being vaccination against α-synuclein, a cause of Parkinson disease (see ARF related news story).
The P301L homozygous animals used for the studies have an aggressive tau pathology, where tangles show up by 5 months and the animals are nearly completely paralyzed by 12 months. That the vaccine is effective at slowing disease progression leads Sigurdsson to speculate that it may work even better in animals with a slower, more AD-like accumulation of tau. In such models, immunization may have a better chance to clear small tau aggregates prophylactically, he suggests. The researchers plan to follow up their results by testing multiple immunogens and other models of tauopathy, such as the human tau mice where pathology develops more slowly (Andorfer et al., 2003). Also in the works are studies in AD mouse models that have both amyloid and tau pathology. Ultimately, Sigurdsson says, he wants to test combined immunization for amyloid and tau, lobbing a double whammy against the lesions that appear to act together to cause the symptoms of AD.—Pat McCaffrey.

Several studies have shown neuronal uptake of antibodies, and a few receptors that can bind immunoglobulins have been identified on neurons. It can be postulated that as a consequence of P301L tau-mediated neurodegeneration, the endosomal-lysosomal system is activated, which may facilitate uptake of antibodies into endosomes. Aggregated tau should be in the lysosomes and once those fuse with the endosomes, antibody binding to tau should facilitate tau degradation.
It is interesting to note that in our hands, normal neurons do not appear to take up appreciable amounts of antibodies, as we have not observed uptake/binding of anti-tau antibodies in neuroblastoma cells and primary cultures that do not have tau pathology. This observation suggests that side effects of this type of therapy are less likely, as normal neurons are not targeted.
I should also mention, as referenced in the article, that while these studies were underway or being reviewed, reports by Masliah et al. (1) and Tampellini et al. (2) further support our findings and interpretations. References:

Whew. 2011 has come to an end. It's been a whirlwind here on the Greiman farm. Our oldest son and only daughter got married within six months of each other. Until those 'shenanigans' were announced I would have sworn they kind of liked me.
I finished the 7th Chrissy McMullen mystery. Woot! You can buy the digital version of UNCORKED at most major ebook sites including Amazon, BN.com and Smashwords. Print copies will be available online soon.
We recently purchased a new horse because, you know, they're like potato chips, no one can have just one (or 7). She's a sassy little gal but that's the way we like 'em.
Three of my out of print historical romance novels, HIGHLAND JEWEL, HIGHLAND FLAME, and HIGHLAND WOLF, have been digitalized and are available for sale online. It's really a thrill to see old 'flames' back in print.
And last but hardly least, I was lucky enough to sell two book series that I've been dying to write. We're currently considering titles. But we're liking Hope Springs. It's a coming home story set on a ranch near my old stomping grounds in South Dakota. The first book will be released in November 2012 from Kensington. Two others will follow at six month intervals.
The second series is a romantic suspense. Look for my kick-ass special agent women sometime in 2014 from Belle Bridge Books. Think Charlie's Angels on steroids.
And that's it for now. Stay warm, keep reading, and have a fantastic new year.
To celebrate the season, I'm giving away an Amazon Gift Card. Please send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com with UNCORKED in subject line. I'll throw your names in a hat and choose a winner.
And as always, thanks so much for your support.

Hot chicks flock to rich guys.
I've seen it time and again, when the geezer rolls up on a yacht in the keys, chicks have their full attention. A lot of girls want someone with the ability to take care of them as well as looks and all the other things. Some places I've been I see old ugly geezers with prime tail and I think how the hell do they do that. Then they roll out in their Bentley or take them to the dock then I understand why. So money helps, makes everyone good looking.... |

Legal Docket
Challenged the adequacy of Philadelphia's program of aftercare probation, which was responsible for a child's course of treatment in, discharge from, and supervision following detention for juvenile offenses.
Argued that due process is violated when a judge uses his independent knowledge about a youth's child welfare history and involvement, including past misconduct, as evidence to adjudicate the youth delinquent in the juvenile justice system.
Challenged the court's finding that an autistic juvenile was competent to stand trial and that there was sufficient grounds to adjudicate the juvenile delinquent based on resisting arrest and related charges.
Challenged a provision of the PA Juvenile Act that barred Philadelphia adjudicated youth from returning to their regular public schools after they were discharged from residential delinquency placements.
Filed a civil rights class action lawsuit challenging Pennsylvania law and practices that governed the detention of youth charged with committing delinquent acts.
Challenged the presence of armed juvenile probation officers in school buildings.
Argued that a sentence of 110 years to life (three consecutive life-terms) for a non-homicide offense committed as a juvenile violates the United States Supreme Court's ruling in Graham v. Florida.
Argued that sentences of life without parole for juveniles convicted of homicide are unconstitutional.
Argued that mandatory life without parole sentences for juveniles convicted of homicide offenses are unconstitutional.

Make room for Brooklyn's Haerts (Facebook // Twitter), a boy-girl pop duo with their debut single 'Wings.' The track title is quite fitting as the synths take flight and the guitars (thanks to help of producer St. Lucia) are dripping with echoing reverb, escaping into the air. All works well with Nini Fabi's vocals sounding like they were recorded on top of a mountain. All said and done, it's a greatly spacious pop track to float you through the day. I can see this track in the next Top Gun...yes, there is a sequel coming out.

We've put several of Toshiba's latest mid-level, high-gloss Satellite notebooks through their paces around here in the past few months, and the 14.1-inch Toshiba Satellite M305 is the latest model in this familiar lineup of devices to come up for review. Dishing out sizeable helpings of memory and processing prowess in the configuration we received, the M305 is a consumer-focused laptop that potentially has the power to keep power users happy.
Wrapped in a love-it-or-hate-it glossy exterior, the M305 targets general users as well as those looking for a mobile multimedia device, with an upgraded audio system and a chic multimedia surface control arrangement. At once style-conscious and budget-conscious, the latest Satellite appears to do a lot of things right - if you can get past all that shiny plastic.
(view large image)
For this review, we tested an M305-S4826 with the following specs:
Styling and Design
Although the rest of the NotebookReview crew was pretty high on previous Toshiba laptops with the high-gloss Fusion Finish, I was admittedly skeptical about the M305's shiny keys and super-reflective lid. If the finish is allegedly durable, in some ways it really doesn't look it.
(view large image)
After a few weeks with the Satellite, however, I'm feeling the need to retract this hasty pronouncement. While it's almost impossible to keep flat surfaces on the notebook free from smudges, the general consensus seems to be correct: durability definitely isn't a problem with these computers. Even an accidental run-in with a bag zipper - the kind of scraping contact that would put a deep scratch on the surface of most notebooks - didn't faze the M305's finish.

If you like the high-tech, high-profile look that it imparts, the Fusion look is svelte, modern, and very appealing. The standard array of function indicators, the M305's multimedia touch panel, and even the Satellite wordmark and touchpad surround are all illuminated with a soft glow that looks great under normal ambient light (though it can be a little bright and harsh on the eyes when working in a dark room). A shallow-inset keyboard and touchpad buttons have an equally classy, well thought-out look. A well matched grey and black striped lid just like we've seen on other recent Toshiba Satellite models rounds out the package.

Build Quality and Physical Specs
If you're one of those notebook users who judges the build quality of a notebook by how much metal is visible in its construction, the M305 won't be earning many high marks in your book: this laptop is all about the plastic, with glossy (and thus, highly obvious) polymers covering nearly every inch of its surface. Again, while the slick plastic can feel a little cheap, the M305 belies this idea with a tight, solid build and lots of nice details.
Panel flex was largely nonexistent, save some give in the typical trouble spot just over the optical drive on the top deck. Similarly, I could induce just the slightest hint of screen ripple by flexing the fairly rigid lid. As with the last few Satellites we've looked at, the M305's battery doesn't seem particularly well anchored, with about an eighth of an inch of front-to-back free play.
(view large image)
Hinges are a touch sticky, and with their plastic coverings and dodgy alignment look like they might be a weak point down the road; without a long term test, though, it's hard to say for sure one way or another on this score. There's no latch keeping the lid anchored shut, which makes at least one reason for the Toshiba's hard-to-move hinges both obvious and appreciated. And assuming they're more durable than they look, I'll take stiff hinges to weak ones any day.
With these complaints clearly registered, the M305's generally solid construction impresses nonetheless. If it doesn't exactly show off the tank-like hull of a high-end business notebook, for a mid-level consumer laptop there's very little of consequence to complain about with the M305.
At 5.25 pounds, the 14.1-inch Satellite feels just a bit portly for its size, though this density contributes to an overall feeling of quality more than it detracts too much from the M305's portability. Measuring in just over 1.25 inches thick at its widest point, the Satellite isn't stellar in terms of overall compactness either, but it certainly lives up to expectations given its price.
At 14.1 inches, the M305's display is obviously smaller than the recently reviewed A305's 15.4-inch version, but performance could be described in almost exactly the same terms. Backlighting is even, with practically no discernible bleed, making colors pop vividly across the gamut.
(view large image)
As with the A305, however, while horizontal viewing angles are nice and wide before color begins to invert, there's a decided "sweet spot" on the vertical axis: swallow out your vertical angle too much and the screen quickly begins to lose all semblance of contrast. Moving in the other direction, color invert relatively quickly. This combined with the fact that the M305's display doesn't tilt as far back as those on some competitive models means that if you often work with your notebook on your lap at odd screen-to-keyboard ratios, you may have trouble finding a position that provides the best possible viewing experience.
Brightness is adjustable in eight steps, with the moderate power settings working fine for indoor use under normal conditions. Overall, while the M305's glossy display isn't perfect, its vibrant colors, good brightness, and minimal reflectivity all add up to a pretty impressive performance for the Satellite in this regard.
Keyboard and Touchpad
I'll say up front what may be on the minds of many: the M305's glossy keys look weird, and seem like they wouldn't be pleasant to type on.
As with the finish in general, and as we've discovered before in testing other similarly speced laptops, however, Toshiba's high-gloss keyboard proves again to be much better than expected. Key action is fairly short - a fact which some typists will undoubtedly dislike - but the keys have a quick, positive feeling when pressed. Once you adapt to the slightly slippery feel of glossy keys, the finish has a nice tactile feeling that actually works surprisingly well for rapid typing.
(view large image)
I did have an issue with a squeaky backspace key, and some of the larger keys (the carriage return and shift keys being the most frequently used, and thus the most obvious, offenders) didn't feel as solidly mounted as I might have liked. Still, the gloss keyboard looks great, feels both pleasant and well-constructed, and, as we've commented before, there's no concern about a matte finish rubbing off of the keys over time with heavy use.
(view large image)
I was a little less satisfied with the M305's touchpad experience. The pad itself is small, somewhat oddly finished (it's the only textured portion of the entire notebook), and isn't great from a sensitivity standpoint. The fact that the pad isn't recessed into the top deck or bounded by a raised border also means that I found myself frequently running "out of bounds" in trying to mouse across the screen, for instance. None of these issues even approach major concerns in my mind - more like minor annoyances at most.
Ports and Drives
With three USB ports, the M305 is playing about par for the course in terms of 14.1-inch notebooks, but the M305's USB slots do something unique to Toshiba's latest crop of laptops: with their innovative "Sleep and Charge" feature, the ports can be used to charge USB-connected devices (your iPod for instance) regardless of whether the computer is on or not - the only requirement being that the computer has to be connected to AC power. While it doesn't necessarily solve mobile charging issues (as it won't draw power when the computer's on battery), being able to use your computer as a charging station regardless of its power state is a clever idea.
The inclusion of Firewire as well as an Express Card slot will make many looking to do slightly more serious computing happy. HDMI also appears to be an option for some configurations, though the port space was blanked on our test unit. On the optical drive front, the M305 features a slim tray-loading DVD-R/CD-R combo drive featuring Labelflash on-disc image burning technology.
As on the cheaper Satellites, the M305's video out doesn't include any screw lugs. I guess Toshiba assumes that no one takes the time to actually lock down a video connection on a laptop anyone, given that these are often temporary arrangements; still, it feels a bit like scrimping to me, and as someone who regularly uses a second display with my notebook and doesn't like to worry about the video cable disconnecting itself when the computer is moved, I'm inclined to see this as a potentially noteworthy oversight for some users.

Audio Performance
Wearing a downsized version of the Harman/Kardon branded system seen on other mid-level Toshibas, audio performance isn't bad at all with the M305. Bass response could be a little richer, and (to be picky) highs can be a little tinny through the M305's audio system, but the sound was natural at all volumes with distortion pretty impressively hard to come by. For mobile movie viewing or on-the-road audio, the Satellite is a perfectly competent performer and then some.
I had no problems with buzzing, whining, or other signal pollution either through the speakers or the headphone out.
Heat and Noise
The only particularly irritating hotspot was one that regularly developed after about 30 minutes of use under my left wrist, making me perceive the entire notebook as being hotter than it actually was. Though it runs a little warmer than some might prefer, for a smaller machine heat dissipation really isn't too bad, making the M305 relatively comfortable to use directly on your lap for light computing tasks like word processing and web surfing.
(view large image)
If the heat dissipation doesn't exactly impress, however, the M305's near-silent fan operation does. The Satellite's side-exhaust fan isn't audible over typical office white noise levels when running at normal speeds.
Battery Life
Using Vista's "Balanced" power management setting, the M305 touts right at three hours of battery life on a full charge of its 3700 mAh pack. A light run-down test involving some web browsing and general office app work at conservative screen brightness settings yielded right at 2:45 before the system warned me to plug in. Likewise, if you're willing to use reduced brightness settings and disable your Wi-Fi while watching, unless you're planning to watch all four hours of Lawrence of Arabia on battery power, you should be able to get through most DVDs in a single charge (if only just).
In short, if it's not exactly class leading, being able to reasonable expect three solid hours of computing on a charge is none too shabby for a compact notebook that comes pretty close to what could be called "budget" pricing territory.
Performance and Benchmarks
This category's definitely a mixed bag for the Satellite, with its success as a performance notebook largely depending on your intended use. With three gigabytes of RAM and its Intel Core 2 Duo "Penryn" chipset, the M305 sports a fairly high-power processor and memory combo. The use of integrated graphics, however, serve to hamstring much of this power where gaming and other 3D graphics uses are concerned.
For the standard complement of computing tasks, up to and including working with images and light video editing, the M305 is more than fast enough. Working in Photoshop, it took a pretty involved multi-file project to overtax the M305's available RAM and several complex processes run simultaneously to noticeably outrun its processor. Assuming you're not looking for a portable gaming machine, then, the M305 proves to be fairly robust in the power department.
wPrime is a program that forces the processor to do recursive mathematical calculations, the advantage of this program is that it is multi-threaded and can use both processor cores at once, thereby giving more accurate benchmarking measurements than Super Pi.

Approaching this review, I wasn't particularly excited about what the M305 had to offer: it seemed like a fairly run-of-the-mill notebook in a visual package that I found fairly unappealing. If my expectations were mixed, the Satellite has consistently impressed in almost every area, proving itself to be a powerful computing companion (assuming you don't need the resources that dedicated graphics provide) and a pleasant machine to use.
The Fusion Finish remains controversial, but while I'm still not keen on the looks (and can't stand its tendency to come away covered in smudges seemingly from a single touch), there's no question in my mind about the finish's durability or functionality. Likewise for the odd looking but great feeling glossy keyboard. If I was an open skeptic going in, the M305 has largely won me over with good performance, solid construction, a great screen, and a respectably strong battery. If it doesn't - beyond the visual, at least - exactly jump off the page, given its street price right at $1,000 as tested, the M305 isn't a bad deal to boot, making it a reliable, affordable choice for general users looking for style and portability.

Suicide bomber kills south Yemen army chief A Yemeni army commander leading the fight against al Qaeda has reportedly been killed in a suicide bombing in the port city of Aden. Four others also died in the attack. The suicide bomber struck in a residential neighborhood near the home of Major General Salem Ali Quton, Yemen's southern army commander, on Monday. Quton was on his way to work when the attacker hit. The man was apparently wearing a belt laden with explosives and threw himself at the general's vehicle. Quton had been in charge of an offensive against al Qaeda that began a month ago to recapture territory seized by the militants.

If you wander on over to the 2008 Presidential Race blog, you'll note that down at number 31 on the list of potential GOP candidates is Mississippi Governor, and former national GOP chairman, Haley Barbour. I've always thought Barbour was at best a political hack, and in my gut I still feel that way.
But I've had the hurricane coverage on all afternoon, since I got home, and through the noise of chores and laundry and so forth has periodically penetrated the deep Southern drawl of Haley Barbour. I have to stop what I'm doing and listen whenever he comes on. This is a voice I want in the White House. I could listen to him for days. No matter how stupid his policies or arrogant his smirk, Mr. Barbour, unlike Mr. Bush, could still command my attention.
On the other hand, Tony Vasilis, who is on MSNBC from time to time talking about the internet coverage of the storm, is without a doubt the most flagrantly homosexual sounding newscaster I've ever heard. I honestly don't know any gay men who sound stereotypically gay at all, but this Vasilis guy... he's no Haley Barbour.

SAN FRANCISCO — An African lion attacked and killed an employee of a private wildlife sanctuary in central California yesterday, law-enforcement officials said.
Deputies responding to reports of an injured person at Cat Haven in Dunlap, Calif., found a severely wounded person inside the lion enclosure, said Lt. Robert Miller, spokesman for the Fresno County sheriff.
"We don't know what happened leading up to the attack because there were no witnesses," Miller said.
After the attack, another employee tried to distract the adult male lion away from the victim and into another enclosure but those attempts failed, the sheriff's department said in a written statement.
"Deputies shot and killed the lion to provide medical attention to the victim. The victim died at the scene," the sheriff's department said.
Cat Haven is a 100-acre sanctuary run by the group Project Survival in Dunlap, about 40 miles east of Fresno. The facility, which is located just outside of King's Canyon National Park, was closed yesterday.
The Fresno Bee, citing a facility spokeswoman, reported that the victim was a 26-year-old woman who was a volunteer intern and who had entered the lion's enclosure.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with her and her family at this critical time," Cat Haven founder Dale Anderson said.
Several condolence messages were left on Project Survival's Facebook page. One person expressed sympathy for the loss of the employee and for a lion named "Cous Cous."
A 4-year-old male lion identified as "Cous Cous" is pictured on Cat Haven's website.
Janice Mackey, a spokeswoman for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, said a necropsy would be performed on the lion to determine whether it suffered from any health problems that could have led to the attack.
Anderson founded Cat Haven in 1993 "to exhibit a variety of wild cats and engage public support for their conservation in the wild," according to the park's website.

We rented an apartment there for 1 week in July. The place looks really nice inside offering enough space and comfort. The lake is only 5 min from the house, although it's a steep path down. The WortherSee is a very clean lake with warm water. The swans and the ducks can be seen pretty often on the lake too.... More

A bullshit apology by Tesco for muddling up animals may have contained traces of horseshit, say regulators.
Inspectors recently discovered that Tesco had as little idea what was inside the products it passed off as 'food' as its most trusting of customers. Uncowed, the supermarket took immediate action, and ponied up for a lot more advertising.
'If we want to continue taking money off the awful people that shop here, we have to nurture the impression we give a toss about them', explained PR Manager Charles Valerie. 'But it's a thin line between 'caring' and 'taking responsibility', which is why we've promised to delegate the blame to suppliers. Time is of the essence if we're to regain the public's trust. The advertising deadline for tomorrow's newspapers is 2.30pm.'
Valerie has vowed to avoid taking the blame for similar incidents in the future, and has put together a team of photogenic QA managers to show journalists they take quality seriously. 'They're working hard on designing a safety sticker for the big mincing machines, it shows a horse with a red cross through it' he enthused.

COLOMBO - Got 48 hours to spend in Sri Lanka's capital Colombo? The city is the country's biggest and a major port, with a rich colonial heritage, gardens, lively markets, modern buildings and even a beach.
The heavy military and police presence in the capital, a manifestation of the government's battle against Tamil Tiger rebels fighting one of Asia's longest modern insurgencies, does take some getting used to.
Colombo, (IANS): The toll in a massacre by suspected Tamil Tigers cadres in a predominantly Sinhalese village in eastern Sri Lanka Saturday has risen to 21 with over 20 more wounded, the defence ministry said Sunday.
by Ru Freeman
Published on Saturday, February 21, 2009 by CommonDreams.org
A few hours ago, two aircraft flown by a terrorist group, LTTE, recognized as such by the US, were foiled in their attempt to attack the Sri Lankan capitol of Colombo. Though both planes were shot down, two civilians were killed and forty-six others injured.
The air raid by the LTTE that took place on Friday evening was an extraordinary event, with an added human interest inasmuch as it happened while the Minister of Disaster Management and Human Rights was entertaining Sir John Holmes to dinner. Sir John, like Colonel Fazackerley in the poem of that name, was magnificently calm throughout the episode, while SMS alerts proliferated around the table.
In a revealing interview tracing the origins of Tamil nationalism and militancy, Ahilan Kadirgamar speaks to C Rajeshkumar alias Ragavan — a founder member of the LTTE — about the early years. Ragavan left the Tigers in 1984 and has since lived in exile in London. Ahilan, a contributor to Lakbimanews, offered this interview originally published on the web, for publication in this newspaper. Excerpts:

Bitten by rattlesnake
Mica Craig, a 47 year old man, went to Wal-Mart to buy supplies to grow marijuana plants. It's OK that he's growing these plants.He has a license to grow them for some medical reason.
Looking at mulch
While Mica was in the garden area of the store, he was checking out some mulch for his plants. On one bag of mulch, he saw what appeared to be a twig. He reached down to knock the twig off the bag with his hand. That is when he was attacked by the snake. He told how he had to shake his hand two times to get the snake to release it's bite.After being bitten, he stomped on the rattlesnake making sure it was dead. Another patron of Wal-Mart came to his assistance. Maria Geffre heard Craig called out that he had been bitten by a snake. He had fallen to the floor and was lying there. She helped get him to the hospital where he was in so much pain that they kept him and feared he may loose two of his fingers. They also treated him with 6 doses of anti-venom when his hand started swelling. They originally thought that the snake had not injected any venom into his hand until he started swelling.
Checking out the store for more
The Wal-Mart store is located in the north western parts of the state of Washington in the city of Clarkston. The store is sure this is a one time incident, that there are not any more snakes inside the store, but are doing all they can to be certain. One person who saw the snake said it had 4 rattles on it's tail and was at least a foot long. Wal-Mart did apologize for the incident. They are looking into how the snake got into the store and make sure there are not any more. Wal-Mart is not sure if the snake came from a field close by the store or was delivered at the store when garden supplies were brought in.

Striae in the popliteal fossa: Striae or stretch marks result from stretching of the skin, or other influences such as Cushing's syndrome. Most pregnant women experience striae at some point during their pregnancy. This picture shows striae in the popliteal fossa (the area on the back side of the leg at the knee joint). When the striae first appear they have a violaceous (red-purple) color, but over time they take-on a dull white appearance.

Man Who Caused Fatal Motorcycle Crash Gets Jail Time
A Norristown man who admitted driving recklessly and causing a motorcycle crash that left his female passenger dead has been given 11 1/2 to 23 months in Montgomery County Prison. 21-year-old Julian Mansfield of Swede Street pleaded guilty to homicide by vehicle and other offenses earlier this year. 19-year-old Ryan Bonita Banjoman of Norristown flew off the seat and into the Schuylkill River when Mansfield hit a concrete guardrail on the Dannehower Bridge on Route 202 in June of last year. Investigators found that Mansfield was going at least 74 miles per hour when he tried to pass a car on the right side and struck a concrete barrier.

Great buy
By Jim
from Estacada, Oregon
Best Uses
I took a chance three years ago and bought a couple of these, one 8" and one 6", both turned out to be a very good buy. They perform well,are reasonably well balanced(easily cured).I just wish HFT made them available in a larger variety of grits.

See the current HM system is perfectly good. The only real issue is the fact that you're punished for NEEDing Pokemon to waste moveslots on these moves to continue ingame progress.
I still like what I suggested regarding HMs. It's similar to this:

imo my idea was still better because if you choose to use it for natural uses outdoors only, then it doesn't take up a move slot. I mean, it's kinda ridiculous if you need to have your Gyarados need surf in it's move set for it to swim. It's much easier to just let it learn surf for outside if you want or for both battle and outside.
As for the suggestions about changing move powers and such, if we choose my idea, then that just won't really be necessary. If you REALLY did want moves that scale then you'd have to scale them with the Pokemon's level. Changing Rock Smash to 60 power = Good Game rock gyms vs lvl 8 Charmander.
Hacks I support:
--Legend of Anbuja
-- Pokemon Rose version
