Pope Benedict XVI's Sinks His Teeth Into the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru
A catholic University should be... Catholic
The university has not understood its Catholic and Pontifical duties. It has turned its back on the Catholic and Magisterial light, sadly necessitating what is an unprecedented move in the history of the Church. Though long in coming, it shows that Pope Benedict XVI has teeth.
After more than 20 years of unsuccessful yet patient efforts on the part of the Roman curia to have the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru abide by the norms of the Apostolic Constitution Ex Cordis Ecclesiae issued in 1990, Pope Benedict XVI has finally been compelled by an intransigent institution to issue a significant sanction. As of July 21, 2012, Secretary of State Tarcisio Cardinal Bertone, under mandate received from Pope Benedict XVI, decreed that the university may no longer call itself Pontifical and may no longer call itself Catholic. The decree was delivered to the current rector of the university, Marcial Rubio Correo.
It is one of those unpleasant but necessary disciplines.
There is a certain irony in the university's motto. The university has been a hotbed of so-called Liberation Theology, including among its teachers at one time the infamous Gustavo Gutierrez, the priest frequently considered the founder of the Liberation Theology movement. As it seems to have moved from orthodoxy and settled into heterodoxy, it has moved from light into dark, and its motto seems to have moved with it. From et lux in tenebris lucet--and the light shines in the darkness--it has moved to the next words of St. John's Gospel: et tenebrae eam non comprehenderunt-and the darkness did not understand it. (John 1:5)
The university has not understood its Catholic and Pontifical duties. It has turned its back on the Catholic and Magisterial light, sadly necessitating what is an unprecedented move in the history of the Church. Though long in coming, it shows that Pope Benedict XVI has teeth.
The university is one of the most prestigious educational institutions in Latin America. It was founded in 1917 with the ecclesiastical approval of the then Archbishop of Lima, Pedro Manuel Garc�a y Naranjo. In 1942, the university was given canonical status under the Code of Canon Law, thereby subjecting itself to the jurisdiction of the Roman curia.
Since 1967, however, the university has changed its internal statutes in ways that were inconsistent with its mission as a Catholic institution. Since the late 1960s, the administration of the university has gotten progressively more recalcitrant. It has rejected guidance of the Church, has been the hotbed of Liberation Theology, and it has actually worked against the interests of the Church and her Magisterium.
To say the least, it is highly inconsistent--even deceptive--for an institution to call itself "Pontifical" and "Catholic" and work against the Catholic Church and her Pontiff. In this regard, Pope Benedict XVI's move is welcome.
Pope Benedict XVI's recent act is an implementation of reforms put in place by his predecessor, Blessed John Paul II. Faced with Catholic universities that were progressively untrue to their founding purpose and progressively inimical to the Catholic Church which gave them birth, Pope John Paul II decided to do something about it.
On August 15, 1990, the Holy See issued the Apostolic Constitution Ex Corde Ecclesiae, which required that all Catholic universities that were subject to canonical legislation adapt their internal statutes to the norms of that Apostolic Constitution. "It is the honor and responsibility of a Catholic University," Ex Corde Ecclesiae said, "to consecrate itself without reserve to the cause of truth." ECE, 4. Ex Corde Ecclesiae was a "sort of 'magna carta'" whose purpose it was to provide basic principles of what should be the vision of a Catholic University.
Ex Corde Ecclesiae identified four characteristics of an authentically Catholic university: (1) it must be of Christian inspiration, (2) it must continually reflect on the treasury of human knowledge "in the light of the Catholic faith," (3) it must be faithful "to the Christian message as it comes to us through the Church," and (4) it must be institutionally committed "to the service of the people of God and of the human family in their pilgrimage to the transcendent goal which gives meaning to life." ECE, 13. To the end of assuring these characteristics, the Apostolic ...

@Jack Gubbaloskis. There is no "People of God" issue involved at all. What's involved is a bunch of administrators and academics (both lay and clerical) that have lost the Catholic faith and dedication to the Magisterium. They have breached their trust to the University, its founders, its vision, and all the worldly assets that its benefactors dispensed for the purpose of enriching and furthering the education of young people within the boundaries of the Catholic faith. In a manner of speaking, they are thieves.

Jack, no, the Pope (who is Christ on Earth) is not joking. Pope Benedict condemned Liberation Theology, but did praise it in some respects: ideals of justice, rejection of violence, and its stress on "the responsibility which Christians necessarily bear for the poor and oppressed." You cannot apply "Catholic" to an institution and teach Liberation Theology, it is not in line with the teachings of the faith. I applaud the Pope for standing up for the church. Liberation theology has roots in Marxism, just do some research. People make mistakes, but the church does not. To mock the Pope or to posit that he is fallible is to say that Jesus himself and his ideals are flawed. There is enough confusion within the church, there does not need to be any more. God Bless!

The Pope must be joking. Our church is the church of the "People of God". Lay people have become much more aware of the Christian faith, especially, the women. I applaud the courage of governing assembly of the University to uphold the concepts of "Liberation Theology" which focus of freedom and justice. These concepts are alien to the so-called intellectuals in the Vatican. Civil law is above canon law when it comes to directing students to addressing the realities of daily living.

Example: if the university was named Coca-Cola University of Peru and they decided to serve Pepsi products against policy, I'm more than confident that Coca-Cola would have their heads. But what I am asking is if the university's name as is would be the same thing? For example, can I legally open up a "Mike's Catholic Lemonade" stand on the corner of the street without any legal ramifications ? I mean the pope can decree and decry all the way home, but does it have any more effect than a fleeing bandit snubbing an old-fashioned "Stop! Stop in the name of the Law !!" by an officer ?

In other words "Liberation theology" is moving away from the Apostolic faith, which can also be called as moving towards another christ, & is anybody's guess as to who the other christ is. Bodily liberation without Spiritual liberation is no liberation & as a matter of fact is slavery caused through rebellion against Christ, as the Bible calls it "the great deceit".

I follow Our Lord Jesus Christ. What did He institute and why? Praise God for Holy Mother Church, the Holy Father, and the Magisterium.

So after appointing Archbishop Muller, who is a follower of liberation theology, to head the Inquisition, Pope Benedict then attacks a university professing liberation theology? I think the good Pontiff needs to look closer to home.

University of Peru sounds a lot better than Pontifical Catholic University of Peru.

The Mount Airy Public Library's first gathering of aspiring scientists Thursday evening was more about curiosity than young scientists driven "mad" by a passion for knowledge. According to spokesperson Angela Llewellyn, this was the first science experiment session done by just the library itself.
Sisters Hope and Hannah Lichvar were smiling as they waited on the workshop to begin. Nine-year-old Hannah was hopeful the experiment on invisible ink writing would work better than their attempts at home.
"We had a chance to try (invisible writing) at home," said Lichvar. "Let's just say it this way, it was not one of my favorite things to learn about." She said she particularly likes science about plants and making the ecosystem better.
Mercy Rock brought her children Isaac, Daniel, Mary and Naaman to the library so they could have a chance to experiment as well. She said they had attended science demonstrations at the school staged by other groups last year.
Llewellyn quickly noticed participants reacting to a noticeable smell of pine in the air.
"You can really smell the Pine-Sol," said Llewellyn. "This experiment really makes the library smell good."
She and library intern Hallie Fields explained how the group would dip strips of paper treated with plant-based chemicals in cups filled with liquids including household cleaners, bottled and well water, lemon juice, dish washing detergent and milk. Llewellyn led the group in writing down the color changes to the papers for later comparison.
Fields told the group the experiment would help them find out if the liquids were acids or bases and explained that PH values are a measure of the potential hydrogen that can be attracted by the liquids. High PH means a base and lower is an acid.
"Some of these liquids will be neutral and we may see no change at all," added Llewellyn. "Remember, to be a scientist you have to be precise. You have to be really careful. We will keep track of our results and as scientists we will later talk about it and see if we agree."
Some of the findings of the young researchers indicated that milk was an acid but not a very strong acid. Diet Mountain Dew, on the other hand, left the red paper red and turned blue test paper red, indicating it was an acid. Both waters tested neutral.
"What do you think this might mean if you drink a lot of sodas?" asked Llewellyn. "I do, and this probably means we all might want to drink less sodas that are adding more acid to our stomach and maybe we should drink more water. Maybe that would be a good thing."
Fields and Llewellyn told the group their experiments indicated most of the household cleaners were bases and not acids.
"We thought most cleaners would be an acid," said Llewellyn. "We've found what you did. Most cleaners are really strong bases. Even oven cleaner turned out to be a strong base. Don't spray anything that's really strong, acid or base, on your hands it can hurt the skin. Acid is as bad as a base."
The young scientists experiment also found out that glass cleaner and dish washing detergent were bases and the Pine-Sol was an acid. Llewellyn told the group before it began the secret writing using lemon juice, they had not been able to heat the paper and cause the writing to turn brown and appear.
"As a scientist we must try all possibilities," said Llewellyn. "Perhaps our craft gun is not hot enough. Have your parents help you try a hair dryer or an iron to see if more heat will make this work."
The group plans to meet the second Thursday of each month at 4 p.m. at the library for the free workshops. Llewellyn said she hopes to include some experiments using a microscope at the next meeting.

O'Malley to Focus on 'Choices' in State of the State
Gov. Martin O'Malley will reflect on the effects of the policy decisions he's made since being elected in 2006.
The word of the day is "choice." Gov. Martin O'Malley will give his seventh State of the State speech at noon on Wednesday. The focus of his address will be the choices state government has made during his terms in office, according to portions of the speech released by his office. "When the national recession hit—wiping out jobs and revenues all across our country—other states tried to cut their way to prosperity. Many found this only made things worse. Laying off police officers, fire fighters and teachers, cutting public education, hiking up college tuition by double digits every single year, continuing down the merry path of cutting taxes for the very wealthy, hoping against cruel experience that somehow it would trickle down to the …

Aspect Security has launched a free baseline knowledge tool that claims to produce an accurate assessment of a development team's knowledge of application security. Secure Coder Analytics can be accessed online to determine the skill set and level of a group of developers or individuals.

"How do you know what you don't know? That's the challenge facing development teams that want to develop secure code. There's no shame in not knowing all of the tricky aspects of application security, and now you can find out where your gaps are," said Jeff Williams, CEO of Aspect Security.
Williams is also cofounder of the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), and he contends his firm's Secure Coder Analytics takes a developer approximately 20 minutes to complete and tests knowledge in various security areas via a multiple-choice assessment.
Questions are randomized from what is said to be an "extensive" pool of questions. Managers of development teams can set up their own tests and invite developers to participate anonymously. After participating, each developer sees their own grade and managers can see aggregate scores that reveal the strengths and weaknesses of the team as a whole.
Aspect Security's eLearning curriculum features 53 learning modules at three different levels of technical depth. The company says that its eLearning solution is in use by developers worldwide at many corporate entities, including giants in the financial, shipping, and logistics and airline industries and government agencies.

A Gift of Hope in Georgia Nugzar Sharvashidze has lived nearly half a century. Buknari, his village sits on the Black Sea, just 40 miles from Turkey. When Georgia was a part of the Soviet Union, Buknari was a beautiful resort town, a place where the Russian elite would come for vacation. Tourism was the mainstay of the town and it was profitable, providing wealth enough for its residents. But when the Soviet Union fell, so did Buknari's place as a resort. The people of this seaside town had to find another way to make a living, so they turned back to their traditional citrus crops. Learn more about how a charitable gift of a heifer is giving Nugzar hope

She shares the house with her father and mother, a 90-year-old grandmother and two adult brothers. The main activity of the family is selling piglets, but they provide just enough money for buying medication for their aged grandmother and covering utilities expenses, and minimal needs of the family's daily life. In spite of the diligent work and joint efforts of the family, purchasing a cow, a long time dream, seemed unfulfilled and impossible to realize. But with the gift of a heifer the situation of the family has radically changed. They maintain a stable high-calorie diet. Learn more about how the gift of livestock can end hunger and poverty around the world

What a sh1t show.
What a sh1t show.
(overall 62%)
Was a bit shocked to find out that you can earn most points already with the "individual" part (Q3 in the AM part) by just writing down the formula. This is something i still need to focus on (since i didnt learn any of those formulas, but are able to apply them), just as correctly writing an IPS!
And it was scary that you have to have the "above average / below average" in the AM section correct to have your explanation scored. Especially because this is mostly guessing and you can have decent reasons for making that guess.
Have to say that during the exam I was maybe too relaxed; no hard questions at all and done with AM in 135 minutes and with PM in 105 minutes. But giving the correct answer format is still tricky (hence; my score of just 54% in the morning part).
Two more weeks of studying to do!
The results motivated me to pick it up again (since i was feeling too confident and was getting lazy).
Just finished AM and got CRUSHED with a 58%
Left the last question blank and had no clue on the currency problem
And I am clearly writing too much according to the answer key.
based on schweser responses the AM sessions should take about 30 minutes. pretty amazing how short they are.
Was really suprised by how hard it was
sounds like i shouldnt spend time on it
this is online or live? how is AM graded?
How do I find it on my Schweser account? I have paid for it but can't seem to find the link.
i took the AM section at the location and took the PM section home with me
AM was brutal, only 2-3 questions that I knew completely
I need to read SS4 10,000 more times before the exam

Answer keys are given after finishing the exam.
is it worth taking this? and do they provide detailed answer with reading references
pimpineasy Wrote:

I think it was worth it (did the live version today) because i learnt a lot.
You will get an answer sheet for the open questions with explanation how to calculate your score (2 points if you mention this, 3 if you calculate that right).
The MC part you can enter online afterwards and you get an explanation also online (similar to QBank).
$49 for mock?
83% on AM session. Core capital killed me otherwise it would have been a lot better.
I am still not 100% with the terminology on that question and if it is even correct. They gave the desired real spending amount. So the discount should have been at the full nominal rate. Increase at 1.03 for inflation divide by 1.05 or 1.03/1.05 ~.981 real discount rate. They multiplied by inflation and still divided by the real risk free rate of 1.02. I really need to reread that portion. It is on every Schweser mock and the way they write it is completely different to the book.
Can someone please compare difficulty to CFAI samples and CFAI mock? Thanks

Very similar. The return requirement in the first problem was significantly more difficult and time consuming than in the CFA Exams I have taken so far. 2004, 2007-2009.
I was very impressed with that question it was very intuitive to being able to handle any situation on the exam. Also, it provided very little guidance which I think is similar to how CFA institute would do it. Time for me was only 1:15, sure would be nice if we could use computers on the exam…
Any comparison to BSAS? I just completed that one today.
Would have killed AM if it weren't for losing 36 points between Questions 3 and 4.
On a side note, I disagree with some of Schweser's ethical answers… like how changing benchmarks from S&P500 to something else violates loyalty. The vignette said it used the S&P500 for all it's portfolios - not that it required it. BLAH
Wow 80% on PM. And I literally got 1 out of 6 on first ethics and 3/6 on second ethics.
I am totally screwed on Schweser Ethics and CFA Ethics stuff always goes fine. 5/6 on sample exam for CFA.
I don't get it whatsoever.
I need to read the asset managers code once again though, that is for sure.
On a side note doesn't asset managers code now say that you must provide monthly statements and the first example said they were providing quarterly statements.
"The Asset Manager Code Recommendations and Guidance (C 1) states that managers may not act on material nonpublic information, and that client holdings or pending trades should often be considered material nonpublic information. A sale of a large number of shares in a particular small industry is likely to decrease the price of other firms in the same industry as well. While the type of trading (cross front-running) that Schmidt has engaged in is difficult to detect, it is a misuse of material nonpublic information."
I hate you Schweser Ethics! That is incredibly subjective.
Managers must provide regular, ongoing performance reporting.
Managers should report to clients at least quarterly, and when possible, such
reporting should be provided within 30 days after the end of the quarter.
AM: 67 (Well, 66.6)
I got a nice 3/21 on the tax question.
Also, I think I have yet to get a correct required return question. I seem to always misinterpret any after/pre tax assumption when nothing is mentioned.
And on 8a, aren't we supposed to adjust for the contract's Beta?
I haven't checked over the PM, but I'll probably be back to complain about something there.
How long did it take to complete the exam? Trying to figure out when to take this.
It took me 2 1/2 hours for each AM & PM… but I'm a slow exam writer. But you might want to block off the whole time if you can… just to mimic the exam.
AM: 81% - Time: 2hrs first pass. Used up another 50min to check answers.
PM: 78% - Time: 2hrs, 10min - including double-check over answers.
For AM:
Not sure what to make of the return calc in the first problem. I had everything right except for my final port value, which was only off by $5million. This is because I wasn't sure whether we should back out the charity payment from the portfolio or whether it should be paid off with income… I chose to back it out since the charity payment was in less than 3 months. So my port return for the first year was 295, instead of 300 (6000-100)*.05=295.
There were a few other sloppy questions IMO on schwesers part, but I expected that since last year's LII mock was the same way. I would've saved more time if they had indicated whether we need to justify on the "agree/yes/accept, etc…" Not clear at all on those and I remember CFAI's indicating when you needed to and didn't need to.
Would've gotten a 86% had I not messed up the core cap. question and remember to divide by the real RFR. I did some other stupid calculation with inflation.
For PM:
I actually thought this was pretty tough. I felt I had to make a lot of educated guesses. The only weak spot was the behavioral finance section (never heard of self-attribution bias, I also thought the MF pick was optimal since she is young and should be in higher beta investments). On the other sections, I just missed one or two here or there; no glaring weaknesses though.
Ok. Time for a brew.
Butchered by Everything in AM, and Ethics in PM. Those were the toughest ethics questions I've ever seen and SERIOUSLY!!! AM Q.1 PART A WAS NOT A 9 MINUTE PROBLEM!!!!!!!
Well worth the 50 bucks though. Really glad I saw some difficult ethics, and required return problems. I know what I need to work on for the next two weeks.
Ok. Time for a Goose
77% afternoon, will grade morning later.
I missed 5/6 of the ethics questions 2nd item set. Wow. Looks like i'm not the only one though, Schweser ethics questions always suck.
One question for everyone: Do answers have to be incomplet sentences, or are bullet points fine? Complete sentences take much more time.
Glad other people thought the ethics were ridiculous too.
I am kinda annoyed that the afternoon doesn't have descriptive answers like the morning. I feel like i got taken. You want descriptions? $100 more please.
Based on their advertising i thought the online thing was just a more detailed walk-through of all the concepts, not the actual answer summaries that are provided in every single other schweser test i've had so far.
do you get to keep the exam or is it more lijke the cfai sample exams

Recent Traveler Reviews
Here is a selection of the most recent reviews of the Amsterdam Walking Tour submitted by actual travelers. Read what travelers liked, what they loved, and what they thought could be improved.
I bought this tour for my husband and me. We landed in the early hours of a Saturday morning in February and rushed straight to Dam square for the tour. From start to finish, the tour was fantastic. We were visiting out of peak time, so our group was very small (there were just 5 of us) and Terry really catered to our every need. Terry who is originally from Ireland has been living in Amsterdam for a number of years and knew a huge amount about the city and and its history. He was willing to answer all manner of questions about all the areas we walked through. The tour allowed us to see all important areas of the city and meant that during our short stay there we felt confident to explore the city on our own during our stay. Great value for money- I would definitely recommend this!!
Reviewed by: Alex H, May 2013This was our first morning in Amsterdam and the lovely tour guide Esther did not disapoint. Her tour was entertaining and her knowledge amazing. Being a local, she was happy to recommend places to go and see. The 3 hours flew by and we wished it was longer, as her company was so much fun. Many of the things she told us has retained in our memory, so we could recognise places again and again with the history day after day! Please book this tour if visiting as it's a great way to see the city, understand it's history and have fun whilst doing so, but ask for Esther! Thank you for a great tour.
Reviewed by: Shermann D, United Kingdom, May 2013Hya again we were a group of 13, with a wheelchair. Both guides were great. very informative and friendly. Very good value for money.
Reviewed by: amanda l, April 2013I had an amazing time. Thank you.
Reviewed by: Josh K, April 2013I think the tour was good and informational - we saw a good amount of the city but I think using central station as a point of reference rather than dam square I find more useful than where the tour started. While it makes sense and seeing dam square is important, I had a difficult time getting my bearings while I was there.

Need help on the way to Sector 1I'm at the part where the water level keeps raising and lowering, and im on a platform. There is a wall in front of me when it rises to the top, and I don't know how to proceed.
Re: Need help on the way to Sector 1There is a another wall right behind the wall with the charge receptor. You have to jump towards that back wall at just the right time to be able to wall jump between the two.
X-Ray Scope Acquired! |
Re: Need help on the way to Sector 1HAHA I KNEW it wouldn't be long until someone posted about this.
I was stuck on that shit for at least a half hour. It's not because it's difficult, it's just poor level design, imo. The game does not depict in any way that you can wall jump up there at all. There should have been a camera angle shift or something. And add to the fact it's a darkly-lit room and hard to see. |
Re: Need help on the way to Sector 1
I have to disagree with it being poor level design. I'm glad they didn't put in a camera angle shift. I'm really opposed to those in Metroid games specifically and any games in general. I was stuck there for a while too, but I think it's great level design. It was one of the few environmental challenges in the game I enjoyed. There was so much tension with the shifting water level and the noise it made. Yeah, it was frustrating as hell being stuck, but when you figure it out on your own it feels so good to escape. I never got the feeling that there was some sadistic level designer somewhere rubbing his hands in maniacal glee thinking "oh people of the world, just try to escape my devious water room trap".
Re: Need help on the way to Sector 1Agreed. It took me a few minutes, but I really enjoyed that part.

Millennial Media, a mobile advertising network, found through a recent study that smartphones account for almost one-half of mobile ad impressions in the US. Even though more subscribers have feature phones, these users have less interaction with advanced mobile content, and therefore only account for one-third of mobile ad views.
iPhones continue to dominate ad impressions within the smartphone category, followed by BlackBerrys and Androids. Androids have seen that largest increase in ad requests, rising 72% month over month. March was the first month the Android phone was one of the three top smartphone operating systems. Requests were up 20% from Apple phones and 25% from BlackBerrys.
On other mobile devices, such as iPads, iPod touches and connected video gaming devices, Millennial Media found that those devices took a significant share of impressions. iPad impressions climbed 713% during the first full week the device was available for purchase. Numbers will only climb as the iPad and similar mobile devices continue to proliferate.
While Apple's tight hold on the smartphone market continues, the Android has gained significant ground because of its high customer satisfaction and loyalty. Indications that Android also represents a robust mobile app platform also point to a greater share of mobile ad impressions in the future.

Justifiably or not, President Barack Obama's approval rating has apparently not been hurt by a trio of scandals making headlines in the past week.
A new poll from CNN and ORC International found that 53 percent of Americans approve of the job Obama is doing, while 45 percent disapprove.
This number remains virtually unchanged from polls taken before the AP and IRS scandals hit and the Benghazi scandal reemerged due to hearings.
A CNN poll taken in early April showed Obama's approval rating at 51 percent. A Gallup poll taken in early May showed him hovering at 50 percent.

Help the eggs!
Serebii War Fiction Story
If you are reading this, please be aware that you are never going to get back the time you used to read this and are now out of who who knows how much time it took for you to read this. Also I bet you didn't notice that I used 'who' back to back in the previous sentence. Did you look?
Shinies I've obtained: RE, RE, RE, MM ~400 eggs, RE, Kyurem SR ~700
"What you do on your own time is your thing, what you tell me about what you do on your own time is unacceptable." -me
I was battling an Audino with a Shelgon and the Audino used a Simple Beam that was black.
I walked directly into a patch of grass where a trainer would otherwise walk up to and battle me, but I encountered a wild Pokémon on that patch of grass instead. After defeating the wild Pokémon, the trainer didn't walk up to me until I walked one step to the right and then one step to the left.
Someone on another board ran into a really weird glitch on their copy of Black version. He needed to get some Max Repels in order to get through route 11 without being bugged by wild Pokemon. He/she bought 10 of them from the Nimbasa Pokemon center and then flew to Route 11. He/she then checked their inventory and saw that the repels they bought weren't there. To top it off, he/she can't buy any repels.
Anyone else run into this glitch on their copy of Black and White? If so, how were you able to bypass/fix it? Haven't been able to find any information on this glitch other than what the person said on the board itself.
Looking for (legit) an event Deoxys. Willing to trade a legendary for it if I can find any more on the GTS. If that doesn't work out, I'm willing to breed any Pokemon you need (as long as it's one that I have in the Pokedex).
Credit goes out to Crasher for the banner
Oh,everytime I walk in a grass and start a battle,sometimes it flashes white sometimes.And most of the times they aren't even RARE!
Why does it flash white?
I think it's just for effect.
I've only found 2 small glitches.
One is when you hatch Tropius, it has a black dot on it's face.
Another one is when you leave the Union room, the other person levitates. ( I think the other person has to be an ace trainer for this to work)
I also heard a lot of people talk about Black Simple beam used by Audino? Anybody know anything about this??
I wouldn't technically call it a glitch, but as I collect eggs for MMing, I notice sometimes when I ride my bike back and forth in front of the daycare man, the spot where he would normally stop you for an egg lags at times. It's a very slight lag, but I can definitely notice at times.
Well I had all forms of Deerling to train and evolve.
Then I save and sleep.
Next day,all deerling are summer form! O_o?
in BW there is a glitch where the railroad tracks in nacrene city move around if you walk along them

I don"t know about anyone else who uses this pellet but I could not chamber it in either my R.W.S. 350 mag. or my Hatsan 95, without shearing the skirt when I closed the breach, I tried to seat it but that deformed it. I can however chamber it in my Beeman RS2 but it is not that accurate at 20 yrds. I bought them to use in my R.W.S. What others should know:Everyone has their personal preference in airgun ammo, what does not shoot well for me may shoot well for you, also all airguns and the shooter are different, these may work great for someone else they just did not work well for me. |

Who's Gone and Who's Left in the Royals Organization?
Back in November, MiLB.com named the KC Royals Organizational All-Stars (one player at each position). As of now, only eight players are still in the organization.
First, lefty Brandon Sisk was traded to the LA Angels for Ervin Santana. Sisk was named the Royals top reliever. He pitched in 50 games with Triple-A Omaha and recorded a 2.54 ERA in 67.1 innings. He also struck out 73 batters. Over his final ten regular season appearances, Sisk allowed just one run in 17.1 innings. JJ Picollo, the Royals' assistant GM, said that opponents do not get good swings against him. Maybe he has a chance in LA?
Next was first baseman Clint Robinson, who was designated for assignment and then traded to Pittsburgh for two low minor leaguers. His 37 doubles and 79 walks were tops in the organization, despite having lesser offensive numbers than in 2011 (.292, 13 homeruns, and 67 RBIs). Picollo talked about how Robinson makes everyone around him in the lineup better. Who's going to be THAT guy in 2013?
Last week came the trade with Tampa Bay that sent Wil Myers, Jake Odorizzi, and Patrick Leonard to the Rays. Since Myers was the Royals Minor League Player of the Year, he was obviously named one of their top outfielders. He made mechanical adjustments to his swing, which increased his power (29 more homeruns than in 2011). And he did not sacrifice his average (he hit .314 in 2012). Myers is expected to be starting in the Rays outfield in 2013.
Odorizzi was the Royals top right-handed starter, as he won an organization-high of 15 games. In five Double-A starts, opponents hit just .191 against him. Overall, he had a 3.03 ERA and struck out 135 batters in 145.1 minor league innings. After the trade, Odorizzi stated that he plans on being ready to compete for one of the Rays rotation spots in 2013. He'll just have to pitch down in the zone or he'll continue to get beat by the long ball.
Leonard was the least touted of the Royals to be traded, but he was the best third baseman in the organization. In his first season of pro ball, he hit a homerun every 17 at-bats at rookie level Burlington (he led the Appalachian League with 14 homeruns). He is a big guy (6'4, 225) and the Royals were shocked with how good he is on defense. It's too early to tell how Leonard will pan out, but maybe he will move Evan Longoria to first base sometime in the future.
So who is still left?
