I never thought this day would come–when I'd write about making peace with my mother. My mother was difficult, and that's an understatement. It's not that I've ever known anything different. When some people read my book, Mothering Mother, they ask how I could have forgiven her, much less taken care of her. The reason is simple: caregiving is more about you–your character, your journey–than it is about them.
While my mother was demanding, domineering, rather self-serving, somewhat violent (I grew up in the day when spanking, whipping, and even slapping your child across the face (which she did more times than I can count) wasn't all that unusual–mine was just a bit more extreme), but my mother was also funny, bigger than life, and she ironically adored my daddy and me.
I spent my 20s pretty darn angry–about being adopted, about her rages, and in general, just one big hot mess. Eventually, I got tired of being angry. I got tired of carrying such a huge "life isn't fair" grudge around all the time.
So, in essence, I simultaneously wore it and decided to let go.
Not because she did or didn't deserve it, but because I did.
And in full disclosure, there were many times (teen years especially) where I was not the ideal daughter and she had every right to be beyond frustrated/irritated and at a complete loss as to what to do with me.
We continued to have our tiffs and rifts. I still had to stand up to her–toe to toe–and she still managed to wield her emotional knives and sometimes I didn't see them coming and would once again buckle under the hurt. Still, this formidable woman gave me more good than ill. I honed my strength, my courage, and my faith by having it tested again and again. And in time, as I married, birthed and raised children, I became aware that all mother-daughter relationships are fraught with a tangle of emotions, regrets, and misunderstandings. I have more compassion for my mother these days and I ask mercy from my own adult daughters. Yet I know there will be so much I won't understand and they won't understand until it's time. Until then I will be their whetting stone and they will sharpen their axes on me just as I, in turn, did to my mother.
I am finally at peace with my mother. Not in some Pollyanna way. I am at peace now because I am somehow able to open wide and embrace all of it–I can remember and absorb the pain and it no longer poisons me.
I remember the day I opened Jack Canfield's book, The Success Principles and read his first entry:
I am 100% responsible for my own life.
That day I finished growing up (not that we are ever done growing).
The angst of a mentally ill birth mother, a alcoholic-addictive father, a cold grandmother saddled with grandchildren to raise, being abused and being adopted by the age of four to a mother wrestling with religion and force and hardened old and narrow ways–all of it burned by some holy fire, no more than ashes.
I am 100% responsible for my own life.
Only by loving what is–all that she was, that I was, all that we are and will forever be–am I now capable of holding us in that sacred and loose place. I can smile and say with an open heart and wide arms,
"Oh, we're such a mess, aren't we?"

Kale Brassica oleracea
A member of the cruciferous, or brassica family, Kale (Brassica oleracea) is traditionally eaten as a vegetable in Europe, the Americas, Africa, and much of Asia.
Kale has been a stable part of Northern Europeans' diets since prehistory, and was one of the most common vegetables eaten right up until the early middle ages. Like many other members of the cruciferous family, Kale's high mineral and vitamin content meant that it has been particularly valued historically during times of duress. In the second world war the British government's 'Dig for Victory' campaign encouraged its cultivation and consumption for exactly this reason.
We take the organic seeds, germinate them for three days until the young and live shoot appears and then freeze dry them to preserve their potent glucosinolate content. They bring out their best sprouting greenness in Clean Greens superfood powder.

Developing a Support Plan for Cloud Applications
Last week I blogged about developing a High-Availability plan. The specifics of a given plan aren't as simple as "Step 1, then Step 2" because in a hybrid environment (which most of us have) the situation changes the requirements. There are those that look for simple "template" solutions, but unless you settle on a single vendor and a single way of doing things, that's not really viable.
The same holds true for support. As I've mentioned before, I'm not fond of the term "cloud", and would rather use the tem "Distributed Computing". That being said, more people understand the former, so I'll just use that for now. What I mean by Distributed Computing is leveraging another system or setup to perform all or some of a computing function. If this definition holds true, then you're essentially creating a partnership with a vendor to run some of your IT - whether that be IaaS, PaaS or SaaS, or more often, a mix. In your on-premises systems, you're the first and sometimes only line of support. That changes when you bring in a Cloud vendor.
For Windows Azure, we have plans for support that you can pay for if you like. http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/support/plans/ You're not off the hook entirely, however. You still need to create a plan to support your users in their applications, especially for the parts you control. The last thing they want to hear is "That's vendor X's problem - you'll have to call them." I find that this is often the last thing the architects think about in a solution.
It's fine to put off the support question prior to deployment, but I would hold off on calling it "production" until you have that plan in place. There are lots of examples, like this one: http://www.va-interactive.com/inbusiness/editorial/sales/ibt/customer.html some of which are technology-specific.
Once again, this is an "it depends" kind of approach. While it would be nice if there was just something in a box we could buy, it just doesn't work that way in a hybrid system. You have to know your options and apply them appropriately.

I hate to accept series splits but, as regular reader Mike Fierman and I text-chatted during the game, this was one that was easy to accept after the first two abysmal games to open the series in Toronto. Bolstered by Phil Hughes who got stronger as the game went on, and a well-rounded offense that provided multiple contributions, the Yankees left Toronto far better than it entered, closing the four-game set with a well-earned split from a 7-2 win.
Brett the Jet was 3-4 with 3 runs and 2 stolen bases while batting lead-off which, let's face it, with all due respect to Jeter lead-off is where Gardner ought to hit. He is now hitting .286 and has been a consistent force, both offensively and defensively, for the Yankees. My boy Grandy was 2-5 with a double and 3 RBI, giving him a team-high 68 for the season. Swish was 2-4 with an RBI, making me eat crow for my text speculation with Mike yesterday that RF might be a position the Yankees seek to upgrade since many other positions are larded with long-term, immovable contracts, and since Swish is hovering just over .250. Mike's response was so outrageously profane, laced with numerous hurtful ad hominems, that I can scarcely repeat them here. (Kidding, of course) Hey, someone each year makes me eat crow and, with Bartolo Colon struggling lately and thus refusing to continue to feed me crow for my pre-season assertion that I never want to see him in pinstripes, it might as well be Swish! Cano had an RBI single, Martin an RBI double, and Pena a nice sacrifice fly. Going 5-8 with RISP, stranding only 6.
Hughes was very good and, after a sluggish start, really got rolling and retired 8 of the last 9 batters he faced. His fastball and curve were sharp, with each used for strikeouts. He only threw 80 pitches in six innings, with Girardi going to the bullpen after that perhaps to both ease him back into regular work, and to allow him to end with success. The bullpen was typically excellent, with the trio of Wade (who impresses me quite a bit), Robertson (who has been brilliant this season), and Logan (who is in a good stretch that I'd like to see continue in a season punctuated by ups-and-downs by him) going 3 perfect, with Logan fanning the side in the 9th.
Gardner began the scoring right away in the first, singling and stealing second. After Teixeira walked, Cano singled to right, and Swish's hard single to right to score BG was hit so hard as to prevent Teixeira from also scoring. The Yanks failed to add on despite having the bases loaded, providing 2 of the team's 3 failed chances with RISP in the first alone. After the Jays tied it in the second against a scuffling Hughes, the Yanks blew it open in the fourth with a crooked (4). Swish singled and I could have sworn that he mouthed "F$*k you, Jason" as he ran to first. After Jorge flew out to left, Russ doubled in Swish to break the tie and give the Yanks the lead for good. Nunez singled Russ to third, Pena scored him on a sac fly, 3-1 Yanks, Gardner singled, and Grandy laced a double into the right field corner to plate them both, 5-1 NY.
Toronto cut it to 5-2 in the bottom of the fourth, but the Yanks added a run in the 7th and the 9th to pad the lead.
The Yanks moved back to 18 games over .500, staying close to first-place Boston and at least 5 ahead of Tampa Bay in the loss column. I was glad to see the Yanks have plenty of hits, 11 in all, without a home run scoring a run today. They will need more of that as A-Rod recovers from knee surgery for the next few weeks. Continuing to get such solid play from Gardner, Grandy, Swish, and hopefully more from a slumping Teixeira would go a long way to mask A-Rod's absence.
On to Tampa for four games, against whom the Yankees are 3-2 thus far, with over a dozen games remaining between the two in all likelihood going a long way to determining the fate of the AL East. After that, the Yanks have a ten-game home stand against three sub-.500 teams in Oakland, Seattle, and Baltimore. Taking three against TB would be huge, especially if the Yankees can come home and dominate the home stand to end July.

Future directions for business-class email
Where we are today
Listening to you, our customers, we continue to make the changes required to deliver reliable, compelling email service that takes the work out of teamwork.
Reliability is our primary objective, and you will probably be pleased to know that Zimbra agrees (see below, with the planned "Always On" architecture).
zMailCloud has also invested in programming and development independent of Zimbra, to respond more rapidly to customer priorities. Some features we've already implemented or plan to introduce before the end of 2013 include:
- Anti-spam, virus & phishing. Faster, more accurate, integrated with the web client to make email management more secure, and convenient for you [? done]
- Personalization. Simplifying configuration, new customers may use custom addresses such yourcompany.zmailcloud.com for login and email clients (existing clients may request this, too!) [? done]
- Administrative reporting. New reports on mailbox usage make it easier for you to understand how your team is using zMC, and any consequent billing [? done]
- Large-file attachment. New feature enabling you to deliver files up to 1GB in size from your desktop or zMC briefcases to recipients, even if they can normally only accept much smaller files [beta testing]
- Up-time reporting. Improved customer experience monitoring [? done] – improved public reporting of service issues [in process]
And we're looking forward to sharing other new capabilities we're developing for 2014.
Where we're headed, collaboratively, with Zimbra Next – version 9 and beyond
It's our aim to deliver the highest reliability solution practical based on the underlying, Zimbra software. When we first introduced our solution, it was based on the Zimbra, version 3 software. Now, we're on version 8!
zMailCloud expects to test Zimbra version 9, also called Zimbra.Next and code-named Judas Priest, later this year, in 2013. We will announce a plan to upgrade to it once it's gone through our testing process, as early as Q1, 2014. Among many material improvements, expected new features include:
- Always ON Architecture. We're pleased to report that zMailCloud and Zimbra agree that, simply put, email should never go down. It should be Always ON. There are several architectural changes made in the new Zimbra version intended to build resiliency and materially reduce potential downtime.
- HTML5 Touch Client. The mobile client was rewritten from the ground up using the Sencha Touch HTML5 Mobile App Framework, including the existing tags, flags, search, and much more. It's also optimized for today's smartphones and tablet devices with touch and swipe gestures.
- HTML5 Offline Client. The Zimbra Desktop application will be replaced by HTML5 offline capability built for today's modern web browsers. No installation or configuration necessary! You will be able to access the web app using the same URL whether you are online or offline. Your web browser will be your client, either way. This should improve offline capability, even over slow internet connections. Technically speaking, in the background we can execute your requests on your locally cached data, and synchronize the changes.
Beyond this next version, we expect to be able to support additional, complementary, integrated collaborative services, such as private, secure chat, and mailing list/e-marketing management.
Thank you for your support
For more than 8 years we have endeavored to solve email problems for small and medium-sized businesses by delivering a flexible, complete and personalized, end-to-end solution.
Thank you first to the customers that have found, supported and grown with us during this entire time. We're proud to be the communication platform for some to have started with a handful, and added hundreds of team members since starting. Next is appreciation for the customers that have left, and sometimes returned, inspired us to make sometimes painful, necessary changes to improve service. Finally we're grateful to those who are considering, have considered our services for their businesses, fledgling, established and somewhere in between.
Our mission to help businesses reach their ambitions remains the same. Staying true to our mission has required us to lead the market for independent, business-class email based on the open-source Zimbra software for collaboration. So we continue to invest in the solution to deliver the most reliable, competitive value, despite challenges presented by complexity, growth and rapidly changing technology.

UVA beats Maryland, avoids dubious history
Thanks to a clutch three-pointer from Mamadi Diane to give his team the lead with 39 seconds remaining, the UVA men's basketball team beat Maryland 68-63 in its regular season finale, to finish with a record of 10-17. With the win, the 2008-09 squad avoided becoming the first Cavalier team since 1969 to finish the regular season with fewer than 10 wins. Still, for a worse winning percentage, one has to go all the way back to the 1966-67 season, when the Cavaliers went 9-17 for .360, a hair short of this year's mark of .370. The Cavaliers face Boston College on Thursday, March 12 at 9pm in the first round of the ACC Tournament.

Photo: Man suspected in thefts from 5 Triad restaurants
Police are looking for a man wanted on suspicion of stealing money from five Triad restaurants since last year, including four in Thomasville. The most recent took place on Wednesday.
The thefts in Thomasville have taken place since Dec. 24 at Legends, Loflins and Shoto's restaurants. Shoto's was victimized twice, Thomasville police said.
Police believe the same man also stole money from the Pioneer and Rancho restaurants in Archdale last year.
In most of the incidents, a man entered a restaurant and went to a restroom where he may have assessed his surroundings, police said. The man would then place an order and remove money from the cash register when nobody is nearby.
Police released a surveillance image of the suspect, seen above. The man was described as being in his 30s, standing 6'1" tall and weighing about 240 pounds.
Anyone with information on the incidents or possible suspects is asked to call Thomasville Crime Stoppers at (336) 476-TIPS (8477) or police at 475-4284.

Bobak Ferdowsi, a flight director for the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity mission, piqued the public's curiosity with his unique style. NBC's Brian Williams reports.
It's been a crazy 24 hours for flight director Bobak Ferdowsi, and not just because he and the rest of his team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory landed an SUV on Mars. Ferdowsi has catapulted to Internet fame — thanks to his star-spangled Mohawk hairdo and the warm-hearted hotness he exuded during TV coverage of the Curiosity rover's landing.
He's picked up 20,000-plus Twitter followers, with most of those added just since last night. He's getting come-ons from fans of both sexes ("I'd let that be-mohawked NASA dude land his rover on my red planet any time," one admirer wrote). A Tumblr tribute site has been created in his honor. And there's a widely distributed LOL picture with the caption, "Becomes an Internet sensation ... Too busy landing a robot on Mars to notice."
Well, Ferdowsi has noticed.
"It's a little surreal," he told me this morning. "I'm still just getting over the 'We're on Mars' thing. That's the thing I can't believe."
As Ferdowsi strolls through JPL's campus in Pasadena, Calif., he can't resist going over to teammates for hugs. He's been working at the lab for nine years. For most of that time he's been preparing for the $2.5 billion Mars Science Laboratory mission, and particularly for Sunday night's successful landing. These people are not only his co-workers. They're his friends.
"What a wonderful moment to share together," he said.
Shira Lazar caught up with Bobak Ferdowsi at JPL in Pasadena, Calif.
Ferdowsi has a habit of adopting a fresh hairdo for each of the space missions for which he's at the controls, based on a vote by his teammates. For the Mars mission, they came up with a variety of fashion choices.
"We had a Martian red," he said. "One vote to shave my head. Natural black. Then we had the Captain America look."
He went with the Captain America Mohawk: black hair flecked with blue and red highlights, plus some bleached white stars on the side. He didn't ponder the effect of having his edgy 'do broadcast on NASA TV, and he was so wrapped up in Curiosity's entry, descent and landing that it took him a while to notice he was becoming a star himself. But then the messages and tweets started popping up on his phone.
"I'm looking down, and thinking, 'This is crazy,'" he recalled.
He was back at work today, trying to do his job while coping with media requests and watching the evolution of a meme.
"I am laughing pretty hard at some of the captions," he said. "I think it's hilarious."
I didn't have the nerve to ask him about his, um, personal relationships — but for all his admirers, here are a couple of factoids: He's 32 years old. He's originally from the Bay Area and still has family there. He earned his bachelor's degree in aeronautical and astronautical engineering from the University of Washington, and he went to MIT to get a master's degree in the same subject.
You can join the Bobak fan club by following @tweetsoutloud. But if his fans really want to get Ferdowsi's attention, they probably shouldn't tweet him a marriage proposal. Instead, they should talk about Mars.
"I hope that they are as excited about Curiosity as I am," the Mohawk Guy said.
Update for 7:35 p.m. ET Aug. 7: Is Mohawk Guy taken? In a follow-up chat with BuzzFeed's Chris Geidner, Ferdowsi reports that he's "dating somebody," and "she's awesome."
"She's put up with me working a lot of long hours on this project, and I am definitely looking forward to things being calmed down a little bit so I can actually hang out with her," Ferdowsi says. A photo on the MemeGenerator website shows Ferdowsi with his arm around a lady friend. The caption reads, "Behind every great Mohawk is a great woman."
Meanwhile, other Internet celebrities are welcoming Mohawk Guy to the fold. Felicia Day told Ferdowsi in a tweet that "your mohawk made my night" — to which Ferdowsi replied, "Your tweet made me blush." Wil Wheaton registered his yen for a NASA Mohawk Guy Fan Club T-shirt — and reportedly put in an order with CafePress.

Thanks to Trav for pointing out this Andrew Brandt article over at National Football Post. As Trav notes, this does give us a bit more info w/re to the still murky details of the fracture of the TT/Favre relationship.
Couple thoughts:
- I find it curious that the Packers were only willing to offer a 2-year deal for Moss mostly out of fear that if we offered a 1 year deal, he'd hit the open market and bank out – yet, we were apparently one of the teams to be interested in him after he did have a monster season with NE and was looking to cash out. Makes me think our re-interest in Moss, if you will, was driven by Favre being relentless about it. (In other articles, Brandt has described Favre as such when it came to signing guys…)
- It's interesting to know that TT really seemed to want Moss too – that it wasn't just a totally Favre-driven idea.
- I find Brandt's opening statement very interesting: "The strange ranting of Randy Moss this week takes me back to the weekend of the 2007 Draft; much of it spent trying to sign Moss." If we are to believe that they spent most of draft weekend trying to sign Moss (I see no reason to doubt Brandt) – imagine what this must have been like for TT, who considers the draft the most important thing in his life. It becomes a bit clearer to see from this article why both Favre and TT were annoyed with one another. Favre just plain wanted a top-flight WR and probably felt the Packers were just being cheap/too focused on non-free agents. Meanwhile, TT was trying to focus on the draft but had to deal with Favre and apparently Bus Cook lobbying for Moss.
- I wonder if Brandt has written at all about this before. Odd that I haven't read about this before. I had suspected at the time that not getting Moss again was something that Favre was pissed about (back in 2008) but this article makes a good argument for it essentially being the last straw for Favre. (And maybe for TT too).

Re: Maybe I'll invest in a mountain bike again
Posted: Fri Oct 09, 2015 12:50 am
Please stop spreading this b.s. Paddling rivers usually has about the same driving with it's impacts as shuttled mountain bike rides (which you don't have to do to ride). Skiing usually doesn't have shuttles, but the commute is almost always longer because mountain passes and summits are the farthest from civilization, not to mention the diesel fumes spewing in the air in lift-serve skiing.Paddling and skiing have much less impact - but it's still better than motorized recreations.
Sure, you burn some gas when you ride a moto or quad (and for the commute, too) but since these activities have limited accesses and set aside locations, the "worseness" is hardly measurable, but really just repugnant bias.
If you are simply referring to the "leave no trace" aspect of sport, again refer to the previous statement about locations.
Bob: "I'm a so much better citizen than you because I engage in low-impact sport, unlike your motorsport!"
Bill: "Then why did I burn less fuel than you doing so?"
Furthermore about trail erosion, Eastern Mich Univ. did a study quite some time ago to see if any one of three groups (equestrian, hiker, mountain biker) actually cause erosion faster than the others. They found that there is no measurable difference, unless it was really wet and muddy, in which case the horses did far more damage. It is often incorrectly touted that the bike has to be worse, probably because it maintains more contact with the ground in the process, but this is patently untrue.

Care for the team's health and give them a comfortable environment to reduce stress.
Set Up
Writing out the names on the tags ahead of time saves time, and also have brief bios of the people to help with the debrief.
From the participants perspective, the object of this activity is for each group member to discover the personality that is written on their own back. You begin by assigning each group member a "personality" by sticking a nametag with the name of a famous person or character to his or her back. DO NOT show this nametag to the participant! Participants should be able to view the personalities of all other group members, just not their own. You then instruct the group to mingle, and ask questions of the other "guests at the party." Individuals can ask yes or no questions about their personalities of others in the group, such as "Am I a woman? Am I a singer? Etc. Instruct participants to ask each member of the group only one question at a time, moving on to another person after each question. Encourage participants not to offer hints.
You can also use this activity to address issues of stereotypes by using an intentionally diverse group of name tags. For this variant the facilitator goes around to the group and sticks the name tags to the participants foreheads. When each participant has received their label ask the participants to introduce themselves and to shake hands with others. Participants try to guess what their label is by the way they are treated by others. Possible labels might be:
You can also use creatures in nature instead of personalities.

Tigers Fall Short Late, Swept by Samford
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Tigers dropped two non-conference games to Samford on Wednesday evening at Tiger Field. The Bulldogs pulled away from Tennessee State for a 12-4 win in game one, before needing 11 innings to grab the night cap 4-3. TSU is now 16-27, while Samford improved to 30-12.
Game two took over three hours and saw six different pitchers step into the circle. The Bulldogs used two runs in the first inning off starting pitcher Hannah St. Clair who pitched just three innings, after working four in game one. Those would be the only runs the freshman would surrender in the night game and issued three hits and one walk.
Shea Morris entered the game in the fourth and threw six innings of shutout ball, allowing three hits and walking one. The junior opened the fifth inning by fanning Arica Dykes to record her 500th, becoming the first hurler in TSU history to reach the milestone. Morris finished with five on the evening.
The Tigers tried to make Morris the winner as they evened up the score with two runs in the bottom of the fifth. Courtney Gearlds opened the inning with the team's first triple of the season. With two outs, Kiarra Freeman earned a walk and stole second on the next pitch. On the play, Gearlds successfully executed the double steal to cut the lead to 2-1. The throw home would get away allowing Freeman to move to third.
Two batters later, Kate Morris drove a ball into left center for a double to plate Freeman, tying the score at 2-2. The Tigers were not able to push another run across in the fifth and didn't take advantage of runners in the sixth, seventh, ninth and tenth, leaving six runners on, 13 in the game.
In the eleventh, Samford picked up two runs off Olivia Gamache who was working in her second inning. The Tigers were able to load the bases in the bottom of the inning and cut the lead to 4-3 as Liz Stansberry reached on a fielder's choice, driving home Ashley Haynes.
Gamache (4-9) took the loss as she surrendered a hit, a walk and two unearned runs.
Gearlds finished 3-for-4 with a walk, while Freeman ended the game 2-for-3 with two walks.
In the opener, the Tigers seemed to pick up three runs in the first inning. With one out and bases loaded, Kate Morris flew out to center to drive in Gearlds. After a throw home, the Bulldogs catcher would launch a ball to the fence in centerfield allowing Rebekka Gross and Ashley Haynes to circle the bases. After the play was done, the umpires upheld an appeal from Samford on Gearlds leaving early. The freshman's run was taken off the board with the other standing.
After SU scratched a run in the top of the second, Lindsey Burgess would get the run back with a solo homerun to left center in the bottom of the inning. The bomb is the fifth on the season for the sophomore.
The Bulldogs took the lead in the third with a grand slam after three consecutive singles off St. Clair. The freshman worked the first four innings surrendering five runs, four earned, on six hits and a walk while striking out two.
In the fourth, Stansberry scored from second, as Freeman reached on a muffed ball at first. TSU trailed 5-4, but would not be able to dent the scoreboard again.
Samford continued their attack as they scored two runs in the fifth, four in the sixth and another in the seventh. Gamache worked the final three innings and was touched for seven runs, six earned, on six hits and six walks. St. Clair took the loss and is now 3-8.
Mollie Hanson earned the win in both games, improving to 18-7.
The Tigers return to Ohio Valley Conference play on Saturday, Apr. 12, as they begin a three game series at Tennessee Tech.

Jirachi (MS006)
ジラーチ Jirachi
|Current location:
|Does not evolve
|Original Trainer:
Jirachi (ジラーチ Jirachi) plays a pivotal role in the movie Jirachi: Wish Maker. Jirachi is a legendary Pokémon who awakens once every thousand years for a period of seven days, coinciding with the appearance of the Millennium Comet. It requires a human friend in order to fully awaken from its hibernation.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Jirachi resembles a yellow pixie in appearance. Under its eyes, there are V-shaped markings that are light green. Jirachi's head is yellow and resembles a star, but with only three points. Hanging on those three points are three light green bands that are part of Jirachi's ability to grant wishes. It also has two yellow strings streaming from behind it. The eye positioned at the center of its stomach is its true eye, which it can use to absorb the power of the Comet.
Plot[edit | edit source]
Jirachi was found by Butler and Diane deep beneath Forina, in which it was held within the form of a purplish crystal. Butler aimed to use its limitless power in order to create a Groudon through artificial means, which he failed to do for Team Magma. Later, Jirachi telepathically reached out to Max during Butler's magic show.
When Jirachi emerged from its cocoon, Butler attempted to use its powers to absorb the Comet's energy. Before the process could be completed, Ash and his friends intervened and fled with Diane to Forina. Butler follows them to Forina, and succeeds in creating an artificial Groudon by capturing Jirachi. However, the Groudon begins consuming all of the wildlife in Forina, and with Butler's help, Jirachi succeeds in defeating the creature.
After this, Jirachi returns to its resting place, bidding farewell to Max, Ash, May and Brock.
Moves Used[edit | edit source]
|+ indicates this Pokémon used this move recently.*
- indicates this Pokémon normally can't use this move.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Although Jirachi is treated as being genderless throughout the games, it should be noted that it is given a male persona in all versions of the films excluding the Brazilian version, wherein it is given a female persona.

Moose spotted near Route 8 in Thomaston
Motorists in the Thomaston area are advised to use extra caution and be observant while driving due to the sighting of a moose near Route 8.
Moose near roadways pose a particular danger because their dark color and tall stance make them difficult to see at night and, once struck, more likely to collapse through the vehicle windshield.
All moose and deer vehicle collisions should be reported to local, state, or DEEP Environmental Conservation Police Officers 860-424-3333. Additionally, residents throughout the state are encouraged to report moose sightings on the DEEP Web site at www.ct.gov/deep/hunting.
Connecticut has a resident moose population estimated at 100 to 150 animals. They are found most often in the northeastern and northwestern wooded corners of Connecticut but have been seen in most other parts of the state

Residents of Northern California hunkered down Sunday as a powerful storm drenched the area with yet another round of pounding rain and strong winds.
The latest storm system — the third to hit the area in less than a week — moved across the region late Saturday and early Sunday dropping as much as an inch of rain per hour in some areas, toppling trees and knocking out electrical service to tens of thousands of people, officials said.
With rivers across Northern California swelling from the deluge, the National Weather Service warned that several rivers weStormsre in danger of topping their banks Sunday afternoon or early Monday. Flood warnings were in effect for the Napa and Russian rivers, two rivers north of San Francisco with a history of flooding, as well as the Truckee River, near Lake Tahoe.
"We've been in preparation mode since Thursday," said Barry Martin, a spokesman for the city of Napa. In bracing for the storm, city officials had handed out more than 8,000 sandbags and about 150 tons of sand, Martin said.
The Napa River was expected to surpass flood stage Sunday afternoon, though most of the flooding was expected to be in agricultural areas outside of the city of Napa, officials said. In the end, the flood level was only one foot above flood stage and caused no real damage.
The National Weather Service on Saturday had also forecast the Russian River would reach flood stage in Guerneville, around 32 feet, around 2 a.m. Monday morning, and crest around noon that day at 35 feet. However, after today's storm, that projection was revised and the river is now expected to stay below flood stage, cresting at just over 27 feet around 4 a.m. Monday. The highest recorded flood in Guerneville occurred in February 1986, when the river reached 49.5 feet, according to the National Weather Service.
Elsewhere, officials were preparing for flooding near Truckee, Calif. a small town of about 16,000, as the Truckee River neared the top of its banks. But weather officials were heartened by the speed in which the system moved through the area, meaning rainfall amounts could be less than predicted.
And with colder temperatures than expected in the mountains, more snow and less rain was falling.
"I'm not sure by how much it could lower the flood threat yet," said Gary Barbato, a NWS hydrologist said early Sunday.
"Maybe dramatically but we'll have to see," he said. In far Northern California, flood warnings remained in effect Sunday for the Eel, Navarro and Mad rivers.
Meanwhile, around 94,000 people from Santa Cruz to Eureka, including about 21,000 people in the San Francisco Bay area, were without electricity Sunday as the powerful winds from the storm knocked down trees and sent broken tree limbs and branches across power lines, said Pacific Gas & Electric spokesman Joe Molica.
"It really did broadside California," Molica said of the storm. About 2,000 PG&E crews were working Sunday to try to restore power, Molica said. Wind gusts, recorded as high as 60 miles per hour in parts of the Bay area, were blamed for knocking over a big rig truck as it drove over the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge at around 5 a.m. Sunday.
Tow crews had to wait for the winds to subside later in the morning before they could remove the truck, officials said. Also train service on the Bay Area Rapid Transit was disrupted for about an hour Sunday morning because of an electrical outage blamed on the weather.

Kubben, A Narrative on Dwarfs and Giants: The Batavian Republic and the Franco-Anglo Peace
Raymond Kubben, Tilburg University, has posted a new essay, A Narrative on Dwarfs and Giants. The Batavian Republic and the Franco-Anglo Peace. It will appear in IN THE EMBRACE OF FRANCE. THE LAW OF NATIONS AND CONSTITUTIONAL LAW IN THE FRENCH SATELLITE STATES OF THE REVOLUTIONARY AND NAPOLEONIC AGE (1789-1815), R.C.H. Lesaffer, R.M.H. Kubben and B.C.M. van Erp-Jacobs, Baden-Baden: Nomos Verlag, 2007. Here's the abstract: The ideal of legal equality, firmly based in natural law, stands as a cornerstone of eighteenth century thought on the law of nations and Revolutionary ideology. And yet, in the years after the thermidor coup d'état the French Republic reached a hegemonic position. The advance of the French Revolutionary armies caused the creation of sister republics in the Netherlands, Italy and Switzerland. Politically, at least, their regimes were dependent on the French government. However, the factual inequality in power and influence, does not give a conclusive indication of the sister republics' legal position. So the question remains whether the French hegemony, despite the ideological stress on equality, translated into unequal juridical status and forms? To find a beginning of an answer to this question this paper focuses on a heyday of the modern law of nations: the conclusion of a treaty. The involvement of the Batavian Republic in the Franco-Anglo peace negotiations leading to the Treaty of Amiens of March 1802 is analysed. To answer the question whether the Batavian Republic did have legislative equality in this peace settlement, four aspects of the Treaty of Amiens and its formation are being discussed: 1) the formation of the preliminary articles of peace of London; 2) the admittance of the Batavian representative to the conferences in Amiens; 3) his part in the negotiations; and 4) the text of the treaty. The analysis will show that the principle of consent was formally upheld and that the treaty text shows hardly a sign of inequality, whereas the Batavian Republic's representative clearly played a secondary role during the negotiations and the Batavian Republic thus did not participate on equal terms in the formation of the treaty. Although France clearly dominated the peace conference in accordance with its leading role in the revolutionary alliance, at least in public, appearances were still being kept up.

Hi! I was looking at your page and I saw that your patronus was a ginger cat. How can this be when patronuses are described as a white and silvery substance? How does yours appear ginger? Thanks, Harrypotterfreak 17:58, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
You don't have to change it. Thanks for replying back and being so nice. I see you like Ravenclaw. Who is your favorite actor/actress in the movies? Harrypotterfreak 13:44, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
My favourite character would definitely be Severus Snape! Alan Rickman is so perfect for the part. His voice is just so. . .breathtaking. I also like Nymphadora Tonks played by Nat Tena. Who is your favourite actor/actress not the Harry Potter movies is you have one? There are several more to choose from, isn't there? Harrypotterfreak 15:12, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
My favourite actress is Mariska Hargitay. My mum got me started on the Harry Potter books 7 years ago. Harrypotterfreak 15:14, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, it's been great talking to you as well. Which Harry Potter book is your favourite?Harrypotterfreak 23:43, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Exactly the same here! Everyone I have talked to like Chamber os Secrets and Goblet of Fire the most, but those are my leasst favourites. Not that I don't like any of the books, I think they are all wonderful!. What is your favourite movie out so far? Harrypotterfreak 23:16, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
In order to insert an image into an infobox you would use the following: [[File:OOTP promo front Harry Potter.jpg|250px]] (if the width is smaller than 250px then just use [[File:OOTP promo front Harry Potter.jpg]]), and obviously replace HarryPotter5.jpg with whatever image. If you have the thumb option set that usually adds a box around the image. I'm not sure that answered your question, but if you need more help feel free to ask. And the page/infobox/image would be helpful if you need more information. -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 19:22, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
Go ahead and add them if you want. I'm pretty sure it's allowed. -- Freakatone Talk 18:23, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

RE: Infoboxes
Infoboxes are just a template -- but I would suggest not really trying to make one unless you know how they work. I know we have a {{Quidditch team}} template, but not an infobox one. I can make one, but what infomation should be on it? (Name, "Home town", Year of Creation...) -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 20:34, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
- I'm confused. Did you mean we should have an infobox for Quidditch teams or Quidditch players? -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 20:28, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
- Well I don't think we could do seeker/chaser/etc. because those change depending on the year, which is why we have the {{Quidditch team}} template. But some of the other ones would be good (name: who their playing for, alias, first formed, mascot, first game, last game, rival, league). -- DarkJedi613 (Talk) 21:40, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

This post "Passiflora" was originally uploaded by Tyra Hallsénius Lindhe in the blog Tyra's Garden
Last week I paid a visit to one best garden centres we have here in Stockholm - Slottsträdgården Ulriksdal. My Garden-budget is limited at the moment so I had to choose carefully where to put my money. After carefully looking around for an hour or so I made my decision… I must say that I got home with some really nice things. One old fashioned Geranium in pale pink 'Prince Nicolai' and this Passiflora- Passion flower, isn't just wonderful? I don't know why but I think of aliens when I look at it.
I also found a new centrepiece for my yard - A handmade antique traditional terracotta jar from Cyprus, now this one really blow the budget but I just could leave without it. Placed in the stone yard just outside the greenhouse door it has now found its new home and every morning when I enter the garden I smile - it is to beautiful !
PITHARI - Like a jewel in the yard.
My "new" eye-catcher... an antique, handmade, earthenware jar from Cyprus.
Happy Gardening!
I wish you all a lovely weekend/ Tyra

Metacrock's Liberal Atonement Theory
Over at Metacrock's Blog Joe takes evangelical atonement theories to task and then offers his own, called Participatory Atonement. According to him "Christ died in Solidarity with victims." I both "love" and "hate" liberal theologies. I love them because they argue with me against evangelical Christianity. I hate them because they are used to maintain a faith that doesn't make a difference and cannot be rationally defended as being specifically Christian. Here's my response to his atonement theory....
Your answer is cherry-picking and choosing from the Bible, it doesn't sufficiently answer the question why Jesus suffered, nor does it answer the problem of evil, nor does it answer the problems of the incarnation and the trinity.
The best way for God to show his solidarity with victims is to do for them what he commands YOU to do, and that is to help them out of their misery rather than to suffer with them. If I chose to go to jail with you in order to participate in your sufferings, for instance, then how does that help you? It might make you feel better about your sufferings, but it should instead make you question my sanity. Can you actually imagine my helping any victims in tangible ways by suffering with them, especially if, like God, I had the power to allieviate their suffering and didn't?
If like Process Theologians your God doesn't have that kind of power, then neither does he have the power to help victims by suffering with them. Why should victims care for God if all he can do is to suffer with them? He's impotent. Besides, he got us into this mess in the first place by selfishly creating us for his own pleasure with our evil tendencies. What good does it show you that God loves you if he cannot do anything for you except to suffer with you? Big deal, I would say. Do something about our suffering and then I'll be impressed, and then I'll care, and then I'll think God knows what he's doing.
It's obvious to me Joe, that you're working from within a given Christian tradition that if you weren't already inside of it, you wouldn't come to accept it in the first place. This is so obvious to me. You initially became a Christian because you thought otherwise of the atonement, but with further study you rejected that initial evangelical atonement view, for good reasons. But rather than rejecting your faith, you try desperately to hang on to it by replacing it with something you never would've accepted in the first place.

When Nan Carney-DeBord organized a surprise party five years ago to honor Lynn Schweizer, her former basketball coach at Denison, she began with a call to the alumni office.
To cover all the lives Schweizer had touched at Denison, Carney-DeBord needed a lengthy list of names: the physical education majors since 1980; swimmers and divers, both men and women, from 1975 to 1986; members of the women's basketball team from 1973 to 1980; any intramural or club sports participants since 1986.
Each of those alums, Carney-DeBord realized, shared the experience she had with Schweizer in the late 1970s, when Carney-DeBord was a four-year letter winner in basketball and field hockey.
Today, Carney-DeBord is Denison's director of athletics and Schweizer its senior associate director of athletics. The 2013-14 academic year was Schweizer's 40th with the school, and in those years her relationships with student-athletes have made her someone they want to catch up with when they return to campus.
"Even after all these years she's still putting in 12- and 15-hour days and has all the energy in the world," Carney-DeBord said. "She is selfless in her leadership style and has always been others-oriented. She's someone who creates everything behind the scenes to make the situation better."
The Granville, Ohio, native started as a part-time women's basketball coach in 1973. Since then, she has coached five varsity athletics teams, served as chair of the department of physical education for 19 years, and worked as intramural and club sports director for 28 years. She also has taught a long list of the physical education courses.
"We never considered athletics an extracurricular," said Larry Scheiderer, director of athletics operations. "It was more co-curricular and about what coaches were doing off the field, how they participated on campus and understanding that connection between athletics and the academic mission of the institution."
Former football student-athlete Dan Crawford graduated in 2011 and worked with Schweizer on the Denison Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. He recalled the "unparalleled spirit" she brought to the campus and the North Coast Athletic Conference.
"Lynn is the epitome of Division III athletics," Crawford said. "Lynn gracefully employs balance in everything she does. Whether female or male, scholar or athlete, coach or administrator, she selflessly gives her time and energy to bring people together and make them better."
Sarah Cepeda, who played basketball at Denison, met Schweizer the first week she stepped on campus. The 2003 graduate worked in athletics as a student assistant to coordinate the intramural and club sports with Schweizer, who was also her academic adviser. Schweizer was also instrumental in Cepeda's application process for the postgraduate scholarship Cepeda was awarded.
Schweizer is also known for pinch-hitting. During the 2013-14 school year, Denison hosted the conference men's and women's swimming and diving championships for the first time. In addition to her administrative duties, she announced the diving portion of the championship. And at the end of the five-day marathon event, when most people are beginning to feel the effects of chlorine inhalation, Schweizer removed signs and picked up trash for nearly two hours.
She stepped in again in fall 2013 when the diving team experienced a midseason coaching change. Schweizer hadn't coached since 1986 – the year she was named Division III National Coach of the Year – but took the interim role.
She knew back in 1966 she wanted to pursue a physical education career, but coaching and working administratively in college athletics wasn't even on her radar screen.
"Little did I know at the time how lucky I was to accept Denison's offer, and the rest is history," Schweizer said. "I have been fortunate to have had supportive colleagues and administrators that have challenged me and helped me to grow as a professional."
Schweizer isn't yet planning for retirement. But that party will have one massive guest list.

I have an old school one. I paid something like $50 for it. I respectfully disagree with the old school ones being difficult. I do the same thing everytime. Throw in the coal, flame it up, throw in the wood chips & fish after 30. Let it go for an hour & half to 3 hours. Usually the coals burn down enough that smoking it a lot longer doesn't dry it out, at least for me. I love the smell & taste from it too. Charcoal & applewood, brined in applejuice & I get rave reviews everytime
Thank you, been a while since I was on the site. I'm in NC now, but really miss the west coast ... fishing and the people. The key to smoking anything but especially fish is keeping the heat away from the product. You want the smoke not the heat for fish.

There's more to learn about terrorism via Bin Laden's personal example than most realize
This Ongoing War
06 May '11
When the Palestinian-Arab journalist Khaled Abu Toameh addresses the subject of terrorism and the terrorists, readers can generally be assured of common sense insights that they will find elsewhere only rarely.
So much nonsense and double-talk about terrorism has been purveyed by journalists, analysts and politicians, that insight is about the last thing a rational consumer of news and analysis can expect to find.
Abu Toameh published an article called 'Muslim Terror Leaders Send Anyone But Their Own Family Members To Murder "Infidels"' earlier today. Here's how it starts:
Those who say they were surprised that Osama bin Laden had been leading a relatively comfortable life in his mansion in an affluent suburb in Pakistan obviously don't know anything about the leaders of Islamic terror groups. The fact that bin Laden was surrounded by women and children also should not come as a surprise to anyone -- nor should the reports that his men and he used some of the women as "human shields" during the US military raid on his compound..
In this regard, bin Laden was doing what many other Muslim terror operatives used to do in Afghanistan, Iraq and the West Bank and Gaza Strip: These operatives are good at sending anyone but their own family members to murder "infidels," "apostates" and any Arab or Muslim who dares to stand up to them. Bin Laden chose to live a good life surrounded by women, children and couriers who provided him with everything he needed. Like the rest of the terror leaders, bin Laden never sent any of his sons on jihad missions. He always made sure that his wives and sons and daughters stayed safe and happy.
Abu Toameh's general observations are especially true of the Palestinian Arab leadership, and in particular that part of which has driven the terror war against Jews and Israel for the last several generations.
Near the end of the piece he writes:
"This is the nature of the coward Muslim terror leaders; they do not hesitate to hide behind women and children and often choose to live in mansions instead of joining their men in the caves and mountains."
Please read Abu Toameh's entire article. It will take you no more than two minutes.
The people he describes here truly are cowards. So too are the analysts and commentators who, far from the danger and threat, relentlessly rip into Israelis who are conducting an existential war of self-defence against an enemy who see pizza restaurants, school yards and buses as their battlefield.
Love of the Land: There's more to learn about terrorism via Bin Laden's personal example than most realize

LOS ANGELES – Stretches of two major Southland freeways will undergo full closures this week.
The southbound San Diego (405) Freeway will be closed between Santa Monica and National boulevards between midnight and 5 a.m. Tuesday through Friday morning March 21 and from midnight to 6 a.m. Saturday and Sunday, March 22 and 23, Los Angeles County MTA spokesman Dave Sotero said.
The closure is to facilitate the installation of a full-span freeway overhead sign and median construction work, Sotero said.
Ramps will begin to close prior to midnight, starting tonight at 7 p.m. and crews will begin closing lanes at 10 p.m. The affected on-ramps will be at Santa Monica, Sunset and Wilshire boulevards, he said.
The connector from the southbound San Diego Freeway to the east and westbound Santa Monica (10) Freeway are also scheduled to close, Sotero said.
Caltrans plans to close the northbound Santa Ana (5) Freeway tonight and Tuesday night from Valley View Avenue to Carmenita Road to reset k-rail and install superstructure rebar and falsework, the wood structural support, for a new Alondra Boulevard bridge, a spokeswoman said.
The closure is part of the $1.6 billion project to install one HOV lane and one general purpose lane north and southbound on the Santa Ana Freeway between the LA/Orange County line and the San Gabriel River (605) Freeway, said Caltrans spokeswoman Maria Raptis.
Crews will start closing ramps at 10 p.m. and work was scheduled to begin at 11:59 p.m., Raptis said.

i just asked this but it for some reason wouldnt let me respond, and it is not posted anywhere. Not even on wowhead, or on mmo front page, no where.
Does anyone know where the new 2 seater mount The Sky Claw comes from?
Assuming you are referring to http://ptr.wowhead.com/spell=134359 http://www.wowdb.com/spells/134359-the-sky-claw
This is the first I have heard of it personally.
Is it maybe the new RAF mount? They have a habit of changing those about alot, and they tend to be 2 seaters now.
I kinda hope it's an engineer mount.
thanks go out to Elyssia Love and admire your Princess of the Night! HUZZAH!
I think it will be a new TCG mount. If the mount was in obtainable in PTR 5.1 then we probably heard a bit more about this mount, but we didn't.
Considering the name "Sky Claw Copter" and that one of the effects is a model change I would think it will probably be one of these. The icon for the spell is even a metallic 3 fingered claw.
It is most definitely not an RAF or TCG mount because the tooltip states it is purely a flying mount. RAF and TCG mounts are all ground/flying.

That is the most stupid looking mount I've ever seen.
I want one.
It's probably something we'll have to use in a questline like the drakes in the starter area of Icecrown where you had to go rescue Argent soldiers from the undead.

^^Everything said above is purely the opinion of the person who posted it. Nothing said is to be taken as fact unless otherwise stated, and even then only taken into consideration as fact, and not an actual fact, as it could be wrong or in other ways misinformed.
Looking at the pic i would guess the model was made 4 years ago...
The thread was dead since November. Don't necro it if you don't have any new information please.
It doesn't really look like a mount imo...I don't think the picture posted is the mount.
it's gonna pick you up by the back and fly you around, you and a friend.
5.2 and it has a recipe attached to it. No real confirmation on what it looks like. I have this crazy notion its an upgrade to the copter that attached a claw to carry friends around but that may be unlikely.
How can this have two places ?

Baruch College MBA Student Selected as Leader of Tomorrow for St. Gallen Symposium
NEW YORK, NY-April 10, 2013 ? Marissa Stuart, an MBA student at Baruch College, has been selected as a Leader of Tomorrow by The St. Gallen Foundation for International Students in Switzerland. Marissa will be one of 100 graduate students from around the world who will participate in the St. Gallen Symposium, May 2-3, 2013.
The Leaders of Tomorrow represent the most promising young talents from the new breed of entrepreneurs, outstanding academics, professionals, politicians and public intellectuals under the age of 30. Their involvement at the symposium is to bring the young generation's perspective to the debates that engage the Leaders of Today, top-level executives from business, politics and institutions.
Marissa, who will earn her MBA degree in Summer 2014, was selected as a Leader of Tomorrow after she participated in the global essay competition highlighting this year's topic "Rewarding Courage." The top 100 best contribtutions, as judged by an independent jury, qualify as Leaders of Tomorrow for an expenses-covered participation in the St. Gallen Symposium. This jury then selects the best contributions to be bestowed with the St. Gallen of Excellence Award at the award ceremony.
After earning her bachelor's degree from College of Charleston, in Charleston, SC., Marissa went to work for Ipreo, where she has been a senior analyst for almost two years. She enrolled at Baruch, where she is currently majoring in real estate and finance, in order to enhance her career.
"I felt I needed to continue to learn to have a better idea of where my career path should lead," Marissa said. "I also wanted to learn more about how businesses worked and the world of finance. I was attracted to Baruch's location and its robust diversity."
Writing her essay supporting this year's symposium topic, "Rewarding Courage," offered Marissa an opportunity to reflect upon her professional and educational experiences.
"Courage has played a huge role in my journey through life, especially in my educational career," Marissa said. "I related to this topic because I face difficult situations every day and need to find courage to overcome them. I am part of the generation of young adults who are aiming for a more enriched life through continuing education. I have always tried to challenge myself beyond the classroom and many have questioned how I face such challenges. When I reflected on this, it made me realize that I focus more on the experience and less on the success or failure of my efforts, and it is easier to find the courage to try new things."
In addition to the 100 essay competition qualifiers, 100 young representatives from academia and business will also participate in the St. Gallen Symposium, as the collective Knowledge Pool, who will discuss the annual topic.
Marissa, who has never been to Switzerland, will arrive on April 29 and return May 5. During her time, Marissa will participate in trainings sessions and workshops with other Leaders of Tomorrow.
"I am really looking forward to meeting people from all over the world and listening to stories about their cultures and their relationship to this year's topic," said Marissa, originally from New Orleans. "I am also really excited to meet and interact with the Leaders of Today and be a part of an international dialogue that provides new perspectives on important issues in our world."

The white-ruffed manakin of Costa Rica is a partially migratory bird, meaning each year it decides whether to stay in its natural habitat or fly elsewhere. But choosing to migrate can have serious consequences for their dating life back home.
The birds are generally found in the highlands of Costa Rica, which each year experiences a very heavy rainy season. The manakins can escape this by migrating to the lowland regions, where there's far less rain and, consequently, it's much easier to forage for food. The problem, according to new research by biologists at the University of Guelph and the University of Western Ontario, is that the male birds who migrate may sacrifice their best shot at mating when then they return.
The manakins that stay through the rainy season are able to secure the best breeding sites for themselves, and their continued presence in manakin society means they can improve their social standing. All of this makes them more attractive to female, leaving the migratory manakins out in the cold.
Researcher Alice Boyle explains the several factors at work in this decision:
"Birds that are younger are more likely to migrate because they still have several years of breeding opportunities ahead of them. It's often the older birds with a higher status that stay not only because there is a sense of urgency to breed but also they know staying will improve their chances of becoming an alpha [male]. These factors can change from year to year which is why we see these birds choose different options each year. They have to decide what makes the most sense for them based on their status and condition."
There are also health factors to consider, Boyle says, pointing to the fact that most of the migrating manakins wouldn't likely survive the heavy rains if they stayed. Under those circumstances, there's not much point in trying to become the alpha male if you'll be too dead to enjoy it.
Fellow researcher Ryan Norris explains that these partially migratory birds are a great window into the larger evolution of bird migration:
"The manakins are faced with the choice of boosting their chances of survival or boosting their chances of breeding. Most animals migrate because of the cold but in the tropics you see some populations that are partially migratory. These species provide a window into the evolution of migrating and a unique opportunity to examine the costs and benefits of this behaviour."
