My friend, Katie, and I chose Cyndaquil and now we finished the game and were working together on the pokedex. I came up wih a plan to save the game, turn it off and start a new one and pick totodile/ chickorita and trade for some random weakling the other had. She loved the idea but then she said it wouldn't work because you have to save after a trade. Is this true? By the way in case the information is imporant, we were using the trade/battle room because neither of us has a friend code for Heartgold and Soulsilver.
I'm sorry but there is not really any way to do it. Although you could just make eggs for each other, but you will also need a Ditto.
Good Luck!!! :D

Tuesday... Abby Back in the Hospital for the 19th Time Since July
Abby's sores still hurt, but they are healed enough to start the next round of chemo. They are painful enough that she still needs continuous morphine, but her cancer is just too aggressive to wait any longer. At least they are keeping her comfortable.
Abby had a great weekend with only a few times of discomfort. We look forward to her not being on morphine constantly but her enjoyment of life was so remarkably improved for a few days.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, she will be admitted to the hospital for a spinal tap and some nasty chemo. In the past they have had trouble sedating her for the spinal, so I would appreciate your prayers for her comfort. They will also be checking her intracranial pressure.
Some members of Abby's medical team wanted her to get a lower dose of one of her chemo drugs, but her primary doctor feels strongly that she needs the full dose to remain in remission. I am praying that God protects her from the harsher side effects.
We are very happy with how Abby is handling one of her meaner chemo drugs, Vincristine. In the past she has had muscle wasting, nerve pain and her reflexes were absent. At its worst, she was unable to stand for more than a couple of seconds.
Today she was able to impress us with her strength (walking on tippy toes and heals) and she has reflexes for the first time since JULY! In the past, she would barely be able to walk at this point. Thank you for praying!
We anticipate her being in the hospital 2-3 days while they monitor her for reactions to the chemo and keep her fluid levels up. We really covet your prayers over the next week... it takes about 5-7 days for the chemo to hit full toxicity in her body so this weekend and next week could be a another dangerous round for Abby if history is any indication.
We'll keep you updated.
~ Michelle

Dear Brent and family,
As sweet Abby goes for another tough round of chemo, we are encouraged to know that though we know not what tomorrow holds, we know the one who holds it, He is faithful, He is mighty to save and heal, and he loves to hear His children pray. This is another opportunity for us to exercise our faith--we won't miss out on it! We will pray for: Abby's comfort, protection and healing, your strength and joy and peace for your children.
With love, Evah Odoi. - February 16, 2009 at 9:27 PM

Holy Cats!!! "muscle wasting, nerve pain and her reflexes were absent." Oh dear God, PLEASE do relieve this pain in Abby!!!
I AM suffering from the same also (elbow down to tip of pinky) AND it IS painful!!! I can't even imagine Abby's legs! Uff-da!
Now, about the Chemo... I know nothing about it YET. I'm in 'waiting mode' before surgery period... but I surely am praying Abby keeps on smiling with her FAITH in Jesus Our Savior!
Thanks so much for posting Michelle... I really believe I was led here for learning experience of ENJOYING GOD's LOVE even during Cancer. Abby IS an ANGEL (& sweet one at that) :-)

I am praying Brent and Michelle....and hoping she is spared from more toxic side effects. I cant imagine how hard it must be to know that she has to have chemo, know the potential side effects because you have already lived through it, and that you still have to make her go through it again. My heart is broken for you both, and especially for your sweet Abby-- what a precious angel she is--her spirit is so refreshing and inspirational!
Praying all goes better than what is expected, and that the Lord gives her supernatural immunity and strength to ward off the side effects and the cancer.
Praise Him for the wonderful blessings He has bestowed onto you during this storm! I pray that the blessings will keep on coming!(((Hugs))) - February 17, 2009 at 12:55 AM

"Do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."-Isaiah 41:10

Pope Benedict XVI resigns: a profile
The Pope is to resign at the end of February, the Vatican has confirmed.
The 85-year-old, who became Pope Benedict XVI in April 2005, has resigned as he feels he lacks the strength to govern due to his age.
In a statement, the Pope said: "Both strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognise my incapacity to adequately fulfil the ministry entrusted to me."
The move overturns centuries of tradition, and comes as a shock to both the Vatican and the rest of the World. It is the first resignation of a Pope in 600 years, the BBC says.

Contact: 01858 468192
Valid until: Friday, May 31 2013
The resignation "took us by surprise", a Vatican spokesperson has reportedly told news agency Reuters.
The Pope yesterday turned to social networking site Twitter to tell his 1,498,811 followers:
Born into a Bavarian farming family in 1927, although his father was a policeman, Joseph Ratzinger joined the Hitler Youth at the age of 14, as was required of young Germans of the time.
The son of anti-Nazi parents, he was let out soon after because of his intention to study for the priesthood.
He was ordained into the priesthood in 1951 and went on to become a professor, teaching at the University of Bonn from 1959. In 1966 he took a chair in dogmatic theology at the University of Tuebingen.
As a young priest he was considered a progressive, but as a professor during the student unrest of the 1960s he became increasingly conservative.
He moved to Regensburg University in his native Bavaria in 1969 and went on to become its dean and vice-president.
He was named Cardinal of Munich by Pope Paul VI in March 1977. He spent 24 years as one of the senior figures in the Vatican, heading the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
The 85-year-old, who became Pope Benedict XVI in 2005 at the age of 78 following the death of John Paul II, was one of the oldest new popes in history when he was elected.
According to the New Statesman: "Benedict's election in April 2005 brought despondency to Catholic progressives, who feared the new pope would attempt to purge the Church of its 'liberals'.
"Gleeful traditionalist Catholics confidently expected that Benedict's election would signal the purging of Catholic liberalism and the revoking of the norms of Vatican II.
"As it happened, his first year brought no marked retrenchment: the reverse, in fact; or so it seemed. Benedict spent half a day with Father Hans Küng, the Swiss liberal theologian.
"He also gave a lengthy private audience to the late Oriana Fallaci, an Italian atheist, feminist and critic of Catholicism."
The piano-playing professor, the eighth German to head the Catholic Church, has said he never wanted to be Pope, however.
He took charge as one of the biggest scandals to plague the Catholic Church - that of child sex abuse by priests - was breaking.
The verdict is out on his handling of the scandal – his supporters claim he showed decisiveness and has done more than any other pope to confront abuse, while his critics say he failed to do enough.
Monsignor Charles Scicluna, the Vatican official in charge of prosecuting priests alleged to have committed serious sexual crimes, told L'Avvenire - the Italian Bishops Conference newspaper - Joseph Ratzinger "showed wisdom and firmness" in handling cases of abuse when he was head of the department in charge of Church discipline, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, for four years before becoming Pope.
Pope Benedict XVI visited England and Scotland on a four-day Papal visit in September 2010. He delivered a speech at Westminster Hall, met with the leaders of other Christian traditions, took part in a service of Evening Prayer with the Archbishop of Canterbury and led a prayer vigil.
The stopover, the first papal visit since 1982, was largely considered a success.
Huge crowds gathered along The Mall in central London to greet the Pope on his way to the Hyde Park prayer vigil, and millions tuned in to his speeches, most of which were broadcast live on TV.
But the Pope was criticised for not meeting victims of abuse in public while visiting the UK. He spoke with a number of victims in a private meeting, but faced criticism about the secrecy surrounding the gathering.
Many have credited Pope Benedict XVI with modernising the Catholic Church, however – he joined social networking site Twitter in December 2012, and has since posted messages several times a week.
Last month he urged Catholics to join the site in order to spread the word and convert atheists to the faith.
And in 2010 the Pope hit the headlines after saying the use of condoms is acceptable in exceptional circumstances.
In interviews published in a book entitled Light of the World, the Pope said condoms could reduce the risk of HIV infection in certain cases, such as for a male prostitute. The Vatican later clarified the comments, however, saying he did not mean they could be used to avoid pregnancy.
But the Pope's remarks have in the past caused offence. He has spoken out against homosexuality and once deplored rock music as "the vehicle of anti-religion". He has said anyone who supports the "grave sins" of abortion and euthanasia should be denied Communion.
In 2006 he was slammed for a speech in Bavaria in which he drew upon a 14th Century Christian emperor's quote which said the Prophet Muhammad brought the world only evil and inhuman things. The Pope later apologised for causing offence to Muslims.
The following year Jewish leaders and community groups criticised Pope Benedict XVI after he formally removed restrictions on celebrating an old form of the Latin mass which includes prayers calling for the Jews to 'be delivered from their darkness' and converted to Catholicism.
In May last year the pope's butler was formally charged over suspicions he leaked a large number of confidential letters addressed to Benedict XVI which revealed alleged corruption and nepotism at the Holy See. He was convicted by a Vatican tribunal in October for leaking secret papal papers.
But in December 2012 Pope Benedict XVI granted Paolo Gabriele Christmas pardon Saturday, forgiving him in person during a jailhouse meeting for stealing and leaking his private papers.
After the 15-minute meeting, Paolo Gabriele was freed and returned to his Vatican City apartment. The Vatican said he couldn't continue living or working in the Vatican, but said it would find him housing and a job elsewhere.
Twitter is abuzz with discussion about Pope Benedict XVI's resignation - #Pope is currently the top UK trend and the fifth-highest worldwide trend, while Papal and Vatican are also trending in the UK.

Want to volunteer for DDR?
Start out by telling us about yourself.
While we are limited on our need for daily volunteers on the streets, you can help us from your own home! Please help us share our story so Detroit may find help on a HUGE level! We are trying to do what we can on a small scale, while concentrating on bringing this story to the whole country along with a plea for help and for funding.
But there are tons of ways to help, and many can be done from in front of your computer!
Some ideas:
-Reach out to national press outlets or talk shows, especially to those that have a "feel good" vibe like Ellen Degeneres, Oprah, Rachael Ray, CNN "Heroes," Ladies Home Journal, etc.
-Know any property investors or real estate moguls? DDR needs a building for our no kill shelter in Detroit! We are a 501(c)3 non profit and your donation is tax deductible!
-Emails to the Mayor and/or City Council about our organization never hurt!
-We are looking for any connections to vets in the Detroit area that might be able to offer us discounts or donate their time at community outreach events.
-We always love people to submit Detroit Dog Rescue to entities that might be giving away money to non profit charities.
-We love to get involved with those who are running "like" contests on places like Facebook where the organization with the most "likes" receives a donation.
-We are gathering a network of foster homes, especially people who can take in dogs on the last minute in the Detroit area. Foster and adoption applications can be completed at www.detroitdogrescue.com
-We would love our story to be shared with nationwide pet-related organizations, such as Best Friends (they have a message board and forum where tons of people go)
-We are hoping to get connected to a celebrity who is an animal lover! Or to one who is from Detroit and wants to help us change this city.
-We are looking for people to share our original video (see link below) any way they can think of! Whether that's sharing it at the office, sending to places like reddit.com or file sharing sites, or submitting it to local news channels (most now have a "got a tip for us?" link on their home pages)
-We are open to just about anything, as we are trying to tackle this issue on a large scale by getting the City on board with our efforts, but in the meantime it's just one small step at a time.
If you did want to share the original video about how DDR got started, here's the direct link again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-bxTO_Q-5k
We thank all of you for your interest in the homeless dogs of Detroit and for helping our efforts to save them! WE WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

In Harry's latest post (Seeing Double – How to Win the Second Screen Revolution), he talks about a future laden with self-driving hover cars and multi-function gesture controlled windows. Sounds cool huh?

The Death of Corporate Brands and Personal Brands (SMX London 2013)
Social media has changed rapidly over the last five years. More and more brands have taken to social, the privacy of our information has drastically reduced and people are more willing to share information. This creates interesting problems and means ultimately the days of separating our "personal brands" from the businesses we work for is ending. So what does that mean for people and businesses?

Trevor Pryce played in the N.F.L. from 1997 to 2010.
This week, the top prospects in college football will face their toughest test yet: the N.F.L. scouting combine. And if they thought staring down Alabama's offensive or defensive lines was scary, just wait until they are locked in a room with Baltimore Ravens General Manager Ozzie Newsome and he brings up that thing they did with those people they should not have been hanging out with at that place they should have avoided.
The combine is all about teams and players finding common ground, determining whether they can work together. Well, it's about that and ratings for the NFL Network, which broadcasts the proceedings, though not the players' team interviews, and has found ways to turn scouting a new cornerback into a cutthroat version of "American Idol."
We watch the combine because we hope that the prospect on our screens might be the guy who takes our team to the promised land. We watch it because we want football, any football, even the kind where there really isn't all that much football being played. And we watch, quite frankly, because it's going to be on for 24 hours a day until the 40-yard dash times of every overweight lineman are broken down and the image of them rumbling around Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis is forever burned into our subconscious. Even after all of that, what did we learn about these prospects? I say not much.
Have you ever gone to a job interview knowing exactly what questions were going to be asked? The players at the combine know all the drills, all the people running them and how they are going to perform before they even check into their hotels the night before. It is not really a fair assessment of what kind of N.F.L. players they could become. A staggering number of draft picks with combine results that were off the charts — a low time in the 40 and a high number of bench-press repetitions — looked like players created for a Madden video game when they weighed in. Then there was Tom Brady. Just look at a photo of him from the combine to see how little all of those measurements mean.
So I'd like to propose a few minor changes to the combine.
Football is a game of action and reaction, so let's see how they react when the offensive linemen are told that instead of running a 40-yard dash, they are going to run a 400-meter race. I think then we'd learn everything we need to know about Texas A&M's Luke Joeckel. For those of you saying nobody on a football field runs 400 meters, go ask your favorite player when he last ran a 40. Hint: it was at the combine.
More than knowing how fast Joeckel is, I need to know that when he's tired and needs to push himself, he can and will. And there's no better place to learn that than on the last turn of a 400. Ask anybody who has run one competitively about the bear that seems to jump on your back. Ask about the lactic acid buildup that turns your legs into soup. And ask about that feeling you get if you are running that distance without being in shape mentally or physically.
Let's see how the receivers react when they are told that instead of using the bench press to measure their strength, they are going to do some Greco-Roman wrestling against a couple of Olympians. This would be a telltale sign of not only how strong they are, but what kind of competitors they are. Are they scared? Will they attack? Can they handle being slammed, or do they act like divas? Think of the difference between Anquan Boldin and Randy Moss in the Super Bowl, and you will understand why this drill would be a must-see for teams looking to draft a wideout. They already know the receivers can catch, but are they really as tough as advertised? If, say, California's Keenan Allen did not have his forearm broken by the Olympian, then he probably is.
Many believe that the N.B.A. has the greatest athletes in the world. There is a reason college basketball players turned tight ends like Tony Gonzalez, Jimmy Graham and Antonio Gates dominate in the N.F.L. So let's put the linebackers on the court and see what their man-to-man defensive skills are like. Want to know how good Georgia's Alec Ogletree is going to be in the N.F.L.? If he can stop the Nets' Joe Johnson from dropping 45 points on him, he'll probably play at a Pro Bowl level.
As it now stands, the combine is an outdated and antiquated event that has basically gone unchanged for 30 years, while football has evolved in 1,000 ways. It's the lowest common denominator, which is fine if you want an average player. But if the quarterback you want your team to draft can play soccer at a high level, or the defensive end the Oakland Raiders like won a gold medal throwing the discus at the Junior Olympics, as did Southern Methodist's Margus Hunt, I have a hunch that is a better barometer for how they will do on a professional football field.

Colorado theater shooting suspect faces 16 new charges
CENTENNIAL, Colo. (Bloomberg) — James Holmes, the man accused of murdering 12 people in July at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo., faces 16 new counts of attempted murder, bringing the total number of charges to 166.
Judge William Sylvester today approved the new counts at a hearing in state court in Centennial. Holmes faces 24 counts of first-degree murder and more than 100 counts of attempted murder. First-degree murder can carry the death penalty in Colorado. Holmes appeared in court handcuffed and wearing a red jumpsuit.
Prosecutors said in a filing that the additional charges stem from an ongoing investigation of the case that revealed new victims. The names of victims were blocked out in the filing.
Holmes, 24, is accused of opening fire on the audience at a midnight screening of "The Dark Knight Rises" in Aurora on July 20.
Defense attorney Tamara Brady asked the judge to delay a preliminary hearing, when evidence is presented against Holmes, to January from November. She cited the massive amount of information in the case, including more than 18,000 pages already given to the defense, adding that she didn't want to "wedge" the preliminary hearing into the holiday period.
Prosecutors said in a filing that victim medical records alone may run more than 100,000 pages, and they have compiled "over 5,000 electronic files on CDs and DVDs" with more expected. The judge said he will discuss the request at an Oct. 25 hearing. The week of Jan. 7 was cited by the judge as possible dates for the preliminary hearing, with the week of Feb. 4 as a backup.
A hearing on possible sanctions also is set for Oct. 25 over what the defense alleges were media leaks that violated an order against pretrial publicity. Deputy District Attorney Rich Orman said that the defense's allegations were too vague and it was unclear whether the information supposedly leaked was even accurate.
Steven Zansberg, an attorney who represents a number of media organizations, argued in court that documents had too much information blocked out, including victim and witness names. He asked the court to release that information.
Deputy District Attorney Lisa Teesch-Maguire said the information was blocked to protect victims from harassment by the media and supporters of Holmes. She said helicopters have flown over the homes of victims to take photos of their underage children. Defense attorney Daniel King agreed with the prosecution and said witnesses whom the defense would like to interview have gone into hiding because of the media. The judge said he expects to issue a ruling on Zansberg's request by Oct. 15.

text: Tell Doc Brown to fire up the Delorean. This next release from World Domination 2 is set to take long time battle fans back in time. The 2007 World Rap Championships featured some of the best battlers from across the globe throwing down for a massive cash prize and endless respect from their peers. However, upon the conclusion of the event fans were left wanting more, as they were denied the opportunity to see two of the most impressive teams, the representatives from the USA's west coast and Britain, face off. Fast forward to 2011, and the time has finally come. Cali's The Saurus is an MC who needs no introduction; one of battle raps most accomplished and decorated veterans, he brings with him a reputation earned through years of dominance. England's Eurgh, the president of their Don't Flop league, has an equally impressive string of battles in his recent past and a penchant for freestyling some would say matches even The Saurus. In this match four years in the making only one rapper can come out on top - who will settle this score once and for all?

Playing to win
31 May 2012
SIMON BORCHARDT, in his SA Rugby magazine column, says tactical kicking is a vital part of the game.
The Springboks will not play 10-man rugby under Heyneke Meyer and they will not play running rugby either. They will play winning rugby, according to the new Springbok coach, which does involve kicking.
There's a common misconception that Meyer wants the ball to be kicked as much as possible. He doesn't. He only wants the ball to be kicked if his team can get it back again.
This year's Varsity Cup final provided a good example of this. Tuks were leading Maties 21-13 midway through the second half with just one score separating the sides (converted tries were worth eight points). The hosts launched an up-and-under that was chased and collected in the air by fullback Clayton Blommetjies, who timed his jump to perfection and sent lock Franco Mostert away for a crucial try. This was not a case of 'kick and hope' from Tuks – Blommetjies had practised how to regain possession in this manner with Bulls backline coach Ricardo Laubscher throughout the tournament.
The next time a ball is kicked in a match, those groaning fans might want to consider why it's being done. If the defence is flat, kicking behind it allows the attacking team to chase and put the retreating defenders under pressure, which could result in a turnover (if only one defender gets to the ball and is forced to release it when tackled) or penalty (if that defender opts to hold on). Or the first defender to the ball may have no choice but to kick for touch, which will result in a territorial gain for the team that kicked first.
Click here to read the latest issue of SA Rugby magazine
Another good reason for putting boot to ball is that research shows a team only has a 10% chance of scoring a try after going through three phases. This is because outstanding defensive systems (like the Stormers') commit just one player to the breakdown (the tackler) with the other 14 standing back and waiting for the next ball-carrier. If the attacking team commits three players to the breakdown, as is often the case, and they inevitably go to ground, then the attacking team is effectively playing with 12 men against 14. That's why it makes sense to kick.
Another common misconception is that South African Super Rugby sides kick more than their Australasian counterparts. When the Chiefs played the Highlanders in the opening round of this year's tournament, the commentators raved about the New Zealand teams' positive approach to the game. Yet there were more kicks in that match than in any of the other round-one fixtures (according to ruckingoodstats.com, the Chiefs kicked 27 times, averaging a kick every 34 seconds in possession, and the Highlanders 24, averaging a kick every 57 seconds in possession). The Reds, supposedly the flag-bearers of running rugby, kicked 46 times (one every 25 seconds in possession) in their round-seven win against the Brumbies, which ended a three-match losing streak. And last year, when they won the Super Rugby title, they kicked more on average per game than any other team.
As Meyer says, people don't remember how you win, they remember whether or not you win. That's why the Springboks will play winning rugby while he's in charge.

31 May 2012, 10:00 amimo it's always the losers who point out how the other team won by kicking…. and not "attractive running rugby" …
31 May 2012, 10:32 amKicking dragons
Kiwis will never recognise their side kicks more. It's just that our Boks are clueless when the backline receives the ball which makes them (the Kiwis) look like superstars. What we really need is someone from the 1980s team to coach our backline. -
31 May 2012, 10:39 am@Michael(mikeybrass)-3:
exactly. -
31 May 2012, 10:39 am@Michael(mikeybrass)-3: problem is, our kicking is too often aimless/just plain poor. it's often a case of "what now? ok lets kick an up-and-under".
31 May 2012, 10:41 am@Michael(mikeybrass)-3: like the way the cheetahs backs handle the ball – there coach might be an option. just not for defence…
31 May 2012, 10:52 amWe need to find a way to marry an outstanding defensive system with a great counter-attacking strategy. The problem is that we have good defense coaches but we need a proper attack coach, someone who has done it for the Boks at the highest level: CAREL DU PLESSIS or RAY MORDT!
Oh and to get Naas in to teach our kickers how to execute proper tactical kicks to the corners.
31 May 2012, 10:53 am@the peanut gallery(peanut)-6: Or Gysie Pienaar is another option, to avoid disruption.
I just don't like Ricardo as the backline coach. I hope to be proven wrong.
31 May 2012, 11:04 am@Michael(mikeybrass)-3: yes they do, the crusaders, who before last weekend were the only team to have beaten the stormers this year kicked a s.hit load over the them impenetrable defensive wall. new zealanders on blogs and media bemoaned the excessive kicking, even tony johnson talked about it on reunion that week.
31 May 2012, 11:06 am@Transformation(Transformation)-9: No they don't – they didn't ***** and moan at their side for winning the WC by kicking the ball.
31 May 2012, 11:13 am@Michael(mikeybrass)-3:
So we kick more do we?
Looked at the last 4 games vs the Boks and actually the Boks kicked more with percentage of posession in all those games.
So if we kick more in a game, maybe we had more posession.
By the way, our backline is superstars, you bad kicks does not make us look any better.
wew still have to come up with a play of some sort.
Fact is AB backline is better. Has been for a while now. -
31 May 2012, 11:17 am@Michael(mikeybrass)-10:
Its called adapting to the play/oposition.
You cant run every game, you need a plan.
GH had a plan for the Ozzies and we took them part in the RWC, best game played all tournament.
France he may have had a different plan for the final.
All i know is it worked. -
31 May 2012, 11:17 am@Michael(mikeybrass)-10: were they kicking the ball the WHOLE world cup?
31 May 2012, 11:28 amhehehe…
imo your opinion is spot on…!!
31 May 2012, 11:45 am@Hurricane(Hurricane)-11: Our kicks were perfectly fine in 2009 when we beat you and you guys bleated. Then you guys started incorporating more kicking into your game and all of a sudden it is ok when you do it.
The point is about hypocrisy.Two points we do agree on: Kicking is perfectly fine, when executed accurately. The ABs have a superior backline.
31 May 2012, 11:48 am@Transformation(Transformation)-13: The ABs play a balanced game now they incorporated more kicking since their 2009 defeats. The point of course is they bitched about our kicking and what do they go and do, kick themselves. Only difference is they have the backline to capitalise on it to a greater extent than the Boks.
31 May 2012, 12:07 pm@Michael(mikeybrass)-16:
So you saying the Boks of 2009 invented the kicking game? -
31 May 2012, 12:15 pmIts not about kicking its got to do with where you kick the damn ball. He kicks for touch more often?
31 May 2012, 12:15 pmBloody autocorrect!!
31 May 2012, 12:20 pm@Hurricane(Hurricane)-17: Don't be an idiot.
31 May 2012, 13:42 pm@Hurricane(Hurricane)-17: No, that would be the Bulls of 1632…..

31 May 2012, 19:30 pmTactical kicking is not kicking for the corner only. It is also targeting any one of the back three who might be poor in the air, or kicking into space to pull defenders out of position, kicking high balls just in behind the midfield to condense their backline and prevent them from being able to counter attack whilst you ae able to pressure them for penalties. Kicks can also be used to turn around a flat line defence, or put a big winger in for a try when the defence is too narrow and you can isolate a smaller one. Or a clever grubber when you are isolated. There are many possible uses for tactical kicking and to be quite honest, our players are actually very good at this for the most part. Far better than they used to be eight or so years ago.
My backline would be (for England)
15.Joe Pietersen
13.de Jongh
09.Du PreezWith 9-10-12-15 we have unequalled ability to play a tactical game without sacrificing the ability to use the ball. It's extraordiarily balanced.
31 May 2012, 22:13 pmThe idea behind kicking is to create pressure. Either through kicking it slightly shorter and having good chasers, or by kicking it over the heads and forcing them to fall back. I recently watched a school rugby match where the opposing flyhalf just kept nudging the ball over our winger's head, out in the corner, 'bout 22m from the tryline. While the first 5 lineouts were fine, you miss number 6 and you're suddenly under serious pressure.
This kick-and-hope ping-pong strategy is nonsense though. Up-and-unders are also far less effective than they were not too long ago, but the laws around retreating and so forth have rendered them a gamble. 50/50 chance of retaining a ball and maybe winning 10m, or keep it through 4 phases and win 10m, but 90% chance of retaining ball.
31 May 2012, 22:14 pmKicking can be an extremely dangerous weapon, but kicking for the sake of kicking is just stupid.
1 Jun 2012, 07:56 am@Hurricane(Hurricane)-17:
no just showed you how to do it -
1 Jun 2012, 08:45 amIf the Boks aren't running the ball incessantly into tacklers, then their kicking the leather off the fricken thing, perhaps this read should be focusing on the real way to achieve winning rugby, that is the ability to put runners into holes with a beautifully timed pass.
7 Jun 2012, 10:41 amHere we go again, it's only the keeewees who play attractive running rugby. Talk about giving yourself a BJ…… Makes me want to kotz
7 Jun 2012, 10:50 amIt is not about kicking or running – it is being predictable. Mostly the opposition can predict what the Boks will do 5 moves ahead, and adjust accordingly
I hope HM can do something about that.

We have a large indoor pool (212,000 gallons) that includes 6 lap lanes (25 yds., shallow end 3 feet to deep at 5 feet) and an adjoining diving well (12 feet deep). Water temp is 84 degrees, air temp is (minimum) 86 and a minimum of 50% humidity (sometimes much more). Conversation has begun about getting a pool cover for this pool. It seems all the 'pros' for this idea come from the vendors. Does anyone have any other sources or insights on why this is a great idea?Thanks for any help!
While initially expensive, pool covers will do wonders for your heating bill. The money saved on your heating costs will offset those covers in just a few years and the covers will last a very long time.I am not a vendor, just someone who has managed pools with and without covers and there is no comparison.
Indoor Pool Covers will save you approximately 40% on water heat and 30% on building heat and 25% on water and chemicals. They pay for themselves quickly.
I've seen these statistics, but I guess I'm wondering, then - why don't you see more BIG indoor pools with covers? Like at universities where they (you'd think) would have the initial funding readily available? All the information I seem to be finding points to smaller indoor pools rather than those with commercial uses.Secondly, I'm wondering which comes first: covering the pool to fix heating issues (evaporation leading to high humidity and heat that can't be vented by our system), or a dehumidifier (or what-have-you) to fix air issues so that evaporation is more limited.At any rate, thanks for the replies!
WE have thought about this but have balked for a couple of reasons. First, where are we going to store it when it is off the pool? Second, how much staff time will it burn up in the course of a year, and to what extent will that offset energy savings? Another concern is the potential for mold/mildew build up if left stored for a couple of days.
An indoor pool already has a pool cover, it is called walls and roof. Although I am an AFO-C with over 20 years aquatic experience, I am not an expert, I would suggest asking Kent Williams, or another recognized authority. Adding a cover would not substantially (if at all) change any $ factors, and can introduce dangers. The aquatics industry is innundated with manufacturers and marketers who promote products that are unnecessary, costly, often do not add qualtiy or savings to the business, and at times can be unsafe.A wiser investment would to to assess your aquatic "box". If you pool is built within a fixed structure you control the environment and have eliminated reasons to justify a pool cover -you are not exposed to environment and have a permanently fixed structure. Is your air exchange/dehumidification unit efficient, operating and maintained properly? Any air leaks in your structure? If you have money to waste on an unnecessary addition to your indoor facility buy the cover, if you want to improve your internal environment invest your $ on improving the efficiency of your operational equipment.Personally, I would steer away from vague and unsubstantiated claims of 40% water heat, 30% building heat, 25% on water and chemical savings in regard to an indoor pool. Sounds like sales and marketing claims to me.My thoughts (don't buy one). Good luck.
For those of you who are not convinced that pool covers save money, go to RSPEC and print out the information on Indoor Pools, Pool Covers,etc. Pool covers save in three areas: (1) If you have dehumidification, once you cover the pool there is "nothing to dehumidify" basically - therefore the dehumidifier does not run 98% of the time. On a commercial pool that is large savings in utility costs. The second area is that when a pool is covered, you are not losing the heat from the pool that evaporates with the water and chemicals. Cover the pool, you do less pool heating. Lastly, chemicals- they don't evaporate with the water when covered; hence you use less chemicals. RSPEC is not a vendor or a manufacturer of pool covers.... they've got nothing to sell. The reason large commercial pools did not cover the pool is due to the expense of the cover; however, many commercial facilities are now considering them as the payback can be in 3-5 years or less as utility costs continue to go up. I will separate responses to pool cover vs. dehumidifers vs. waste ventilation.
A roof and walls are NOT a pool cover in any aquatic facility. Water as it evaporates rises and that moisture stratifies on the ceiling areas first. Moisture saturates walls and ceiling areas and without negative pressure established or dehumidification installed, can and will over time (depending upon geographics) cause mold, rot, deterioration of the overall structure. Not knowing what state you are in... but exchanging outdoor air for indoor air is generally not sufficient to maintain the ASHRAE recommended guidelines for controlling humidity in an indoor pool environment. The outside temperature must e exactly the same all year round - 365 days a year for air to air exchange and waste ventilation to work. These systems are basically called just that "waste ventilation" because you 'throw out the bath water with the baby" -- meaning you are not only throwing away free heat (outdoors), but you have to temper any incoming air you bring in. In cold climates, that means you have to heat the incoming air before introducing it... with high heat and humidity demographics, you will not be able to maintain 50-60% RH within the environment on a daily basis. Even in areas such as FL, TX etc. that required outside air be brought in.... it can increase the size of a dehumidification system to accommodate the additional moisture load. In reality- there are many factors that go into a structure - it is just not a pool cover and just not a dehumidifier-- but those two items alone will lower utility costs and provide a healthy stable environment all year round.
Wow, good, thoughtful information from all. Glad I found this forum as we are completing design on a new center with indoor 8-lane pool.

Sarah Waters - Author
London Times Novelist of the Year
John Llewellyn Rhys Prize: Finalist
A spellbinding ghost story, a complex and intriguing historical mystery, and a poignant romance with an unexpected twist.
"Gothic tale, psychological study, puzzle narrative…This is gripping, astute fiction that feeds the mind and senses."—The Seattle Times As in her noteworthy deput, Tipping the Velvet, Sarah Waters brilliantly evokes the sights and smells of a moody and beguiling nineteenth-century London, and proves herself yet again a storyteller, in the words of the New York Times Book Review, of "startling power." "Unfolds sinuously and ominously…a powerful plot-twister…a truly suspenseful tale of terror; and a piece of elegant, thinly veiled erotica. Like a Ouija board, Affinity offers different messages to different readers, scaring the shrouds off everyone in the process." —USA Today "[Waters] displays her incredible talent for the Gothic historical novel in this splendid book about a Victorian women's prison and the affair there between an inmate and a 'lady visitor.'" —San Francisco Chronicle "Gothic tale, psychological study, puzzle narrative…superbly suspenseful…This is gripping, astute fiction that feeds the mind and senses." —The Seattle Times Awards for Affinity

Nasty Girl
Out today on Great Stuff! Get it here
It's been a while since hip-house has reared its head in these parts, so we're most thankful for Sabb & Zenbi's new collaboration with rapper Born I Music. Nasty Girl takes a low-slung, shuffling groove that blends 808 snares with nu skool tech house rhythms, and allows the sordid vocal to take centre stage. Born I Music's sleazy rhymes make this a great mix tool and an absolute joy to blend with. The Dirty Dub edit flips the script and delivers a more tribal-tinged techno monster, with choice snippets of the rap doing the damage. On the remix front, Nelski goes sprightly electronic house for his rework. An irresistible analog b-line funks its way around deft organ chords and snappy beats, with supremely cool sub-bass breakbeat interludes along the way and rasping lead lines thereafter. Tons of ideas are poured into his remix, Nelski showing up lesser producers as just plain lazy. It's a very clever, fast-moving rework, and one that's hard to put into words given just how much it's got going on. Sonny Wharton rounds off this phat package with his chunky refix, looping the vocal up, bitcrushing it ever so gently and lacing it a typically saucy beast of a bassline. Less is more as far as he's concerned, with the focus on winding hips and popping shoulders as succinctly as possible. Mission very much accomplished.

6•12•2013.What? What was that, Citizens? We couldn't hear you over all the popping champagne corks here at HQ. Oh, "Congratulations"? Well, thanks! Yeah, we're pretty stoked to be launching the final scene of Book 1...as you may have guessed.
But, seriously, we wouldn't be here if it weren't for all of you. And so, we lift our glasses to you, Citizens-All: Here's to the road ahead, from Adamant to parts unknown.

5•22•2013. That is one damn satisfying page number. Just sayin'. We're aiming for about 230 in the rest of the book, which will be a little less than a tenth of the full series. We can't wait to see it all in print, like a pile of phone books... by the time we finish, they won't even make phone books anymore!

4•15•2013. While things are looking grim for Dr. Nova, it's also interesting to observe someone from a totally different class in his natural habitat. Nathaniel's apartment is so small, in fact, that his son, Jeremiah, sleeps in the closet of the single bedroom. The common bath is at the end of the hall, shared by the whole floor. So much for life in a hilltop villa! We'll be seeing more of Nathaniel's family later; it was fun to introduce them here, though.

2•27•2013. Things got nasty in our previous scene and they're about to get worse. Dr. Nova's enemies are about to make their move. Politics, scientific genius, the struggle of humanity in a war decemated by war: We're reaching the heart of all things TRO. And with suspense comes payoff. ...Or perhaps payback?
Page: 162, 163, 164, 165
2•18•2013. A scene that originally happened behind the scenes, that is, ones that wasn't a scene. Since we had the opportunity to, we thought the story would be better with it.
PS, I also like drawing prosthetics.

2•8•2013. Business first: Today we launch a new scene, hooray! This is a fun one, well shorter than in its original incarnation, and now with more naked men and robots.
On a more personal note, we'd like to honor our friend Collin, a giving, kind soul with a passion for music, who was taken from the world suddenly and young. The grief, anger and genuine fear that we at HQ are feeling right now will become, as it always does, part of our story. But it's in the moments of peace, in the slow, wise smiles, that Collin will live on. Death is what you make of it. Drive carefully, Citizens.

1•28•2013. It's a new year, Citizens, but you'll see that not much time has passed for our two rivals in the City of Adamant. Bruises are one thing, but some wounds go deep. Get ready for things to get a lot worse before they get better.
Oh, unless you count switching to a MWF update schedule an improvement...

"So you're sex-positive?" asked the woman standing in the kitchen of my mother's farm. We had just met.
"Ehrm…you betcha!" I said as I tried to inconspicuously ogle the generous portion of side-boob pouring from the edges of her tank like lava from a boobcano of joy. Side-boob is a lot harder to inconspicuously ogle than cleavage since you have to come at it from the side all shifty and crab-like.
I had no idea what being "sex-positive" meant, even though I write about sex and this was pretty recently. But I liked this new friend, and we had been having a nice talk about body image, sex, veganism, and I as I already stated…the side boob.
I had a general idea what she meant; the name "sex-positive" explains it pretty well. But I didn't know this was, you know, a movement.
Where have I been? I thought as I Googled the term two minutes after she left. I quickly learned that "sex-positive" is the idea that if a sex act is safe and consensual, then it should be viewed as a positive, healthy thing. Sex-positivity also encourages sex education and addressing sex, and pleasure, as something natural that should be embraced. So, yep, sex-positive. I sure am.
If this movement has been around since the 60s, why am I just hearing the term now? Sure, I just jumped on the Smartphone trend a couple months back and my most well-loved electronic is my Hitachi Magic Wand, but I'd like to think I'm not that culturally clueless, especially when it comes to sexuality.
