Show Two of the 2007 Quiznos Madfin Shark Series airs Sunday, April 15 at 9:30 a.m. ET on ESPN2. The six episodes air each Sunday through June. Check for show times and re-airs. Madfin TV schedule
Editor's note: See exclusive video to ESPNOutdoors.com at bottom of page.
Of the hundreds of shark species plying the oceans, only about eight interest the competitors in the Quiznos Madfin Shark Series tournament, and of those, some are far more tantalizing than others.
Landing a lemon or a blacktip is all in a day's work.
Nailing a Hammerhead would be an occasion to savor.
Taking a Tiger by the tail might catapult even a struggling team to the top.
Below you'll find a thumbnail description of the scored species. Teams will earn the stated points for catching each shark specimen, and double that total if they remove the hook from the beast's mouth before they release it.
The exception to this system is the Nurse shark, which is worth minus-50 points to catch, and must be released hook-free for a team to return to zero points. Sharks not listed here will score 50 points per catch and 50 per hook-free release.
The information in these profiles comes from interviews with guides and George Burgess, who directs the Florida Program for Shark Research at the Florida Museum of Natural History, at the University of Florida. Further information comes from the biological profiles section of the web site of the Florida Museum of Natural History's Ichthyology Department a stellar resource on these and other shark species.
In order of their point values, the tournaments sharks include:
Nurse (-50 points to catch, 50 hook-removal bonus)
A bottom-feeder fond of lobster dinners, nurse sharks are generally docile creatures. Divers and snorkelers often approach them under water, usually to no consequence, unless they get too friendly or poke around under a ledge or in a cave, where as many as 40 nurses may pile together. Then the Nurse's abundance of tiny teeth can make it a dickens to scrape off. "I've seen guys go to the hospital with small sharks on them," guide Ken Harris says.
Nurses inhabit coastal waters around the middle Americas and the west coast of Africa, growing to about 9 feet in length and more than 200 pounds. Humans kill Nurse sharks to keep them off of bait meant for other species. Their meat, not prized, may be used for crab bait.
Blacktip (50 points to catch, 50 points hook-removal bonus)
Small and gamey, and speedy enough to run down jacks and snappers, blacktip sharks "jump like little Makos," says guide Ken Harris. Their rugged fins are like "sandpaper on the line," according to guide Robert Moore, and their teeth, Burgess says, are "designed for grabbing and eating fish rather than shearing and taking bites."
They're common in the tropics and subtropics around six continents, usually at depths not exceeding 100 feet. Adults grow to be about 5 feet long and 40 pounds. They feed on bony and schooling fishes such as sardines, mullet, anchovies, groupers and snook, attacking vertically at high speeds that sometimes carry them out of the water.
Lemon (50 points to catch, 50 points hook-removal bonus)
A shallow-water fish partial to estuaries and undercut limestone banks, lemon sharks "can be nasty-tempered," guide Ken Harris says. These inshore predators are known for being more aggressive than Blacktips, but both species are "spooky" of anglers, says guide Robert Moore.
These stocky, blunt-nosed sharks live mostly along the coasts of the Americas on a diet of stingrays, catfish, mullet, jacks, crabs, crayfish and smaller sharks, and often grow to be 10 or 12 feet long. Lemons are a relatively minor threat to people.
Sandbar (50 points to catch, 50 points hook-removal bonus)
The most common shark in commercial and recreational fishing, sandbars have been beaten down by about 80 percent in recent years. "It's going to take 60 years to take them to where they were 25 years ago," ichthyologist George Burgess says.
Their habitat ranges from the Mediterranean Sea to the Gulf of Mexico and coast of Korea and Hawaii. Blunt-snouted with a tall dorsal fin, the Sandbar reaches lengths of 6 or 7 feet and weights of 110 to 150 pounds. It bottom-feeds on mollusks, crustaceans, eels and octopi, and digs on bony fish as well.
Silky (50 points to catch, 50 points hook-removal bonus)
"A tweener shark," ichthyologist George Burgess says, found in shallower water than the Mako but comfortable in depths up to 50 fathoms, if they're large enough, silkies have earned the appellation "net-eater" for going after tuna nets in the eastern Pacific.
It's an active shark that prefers warmer waters around the Americas, Australia and Africa. The long pectoral fin and rear tip distinguish the silky, which grows to about 10 feet in length and have notched, serrated teeth.
Bull (100 points to catch, 100 points hook-removal bonus)
Bulls inhabit on coastal waters throughout tropical and subtropical regions, but have been found thousands of miles up the Amazon and as far up the Mississippi River as Illinois.
Its eyes are small, its pectoral fins, large. Bulls get to be about 11 feet long and 500 pounds on a diet of just about anything the ocean contains: tarpon, jacks, dolphins, crabs, squid, sea birds, other Bulls. It's not a popular commercial fish, but is a popular game fish in the American southeast and in South Africa.
"It has the most testosterone of any animal on the planet," guide Ken Harris says. "A male bull shark is in my opinion the animal that's most likely to bite you that lives anywhere. He also goes further into fresh water than the others. They're a nasty animal."
Once, a Bull shark that was attacking his boat turned and took out its frustrations by biting a 9-foot nurse on the back. The Bull's presence in shallow and fresh water, along with its temperament, makes it among the most dangerous sharks to humans.
"You don't see as many bulls landed," guide Robert Moore says. "This last tournament, we hooked four in the 9- to 10-foot range. We couldn't stop them. They broke us off all four times."
Hammerhead (300 points to catch, 300 points hook-removal bonus)
"Every Hammerhead is different from the last," says guide Ken Harris, describing them as "squirrelly," "aggressive" or "disinterested."
But they're just about everything you'd want to see in a gamefish. The remarkable shape of their heads endows them with "a different view of the world," ichthyologist George Burgess says. It pushes their nostrils and ampullae of Lorenzini (the organs that detect other animals' faint electrical fields) further apart, for one, enhancing the Hammerhead's ability to triangulate and find prey.
They also have greater maneuverability, and will use their heads to bash prey. Burgess talks of Hammerheads pinning stingrays to the ocean floor with that head and finishing the ray bite by bite.
Tiger (300 points to catch, 300 points hook-removal bonus)
"Tiger sharks don't leave until they eat what they came for," guide Ken Harris says. "They are the Mike Tyson of the sharks. The Tiger shark, I'm convinced, is the shark that all other sharks' reputation is based on. He will eat a boot. He will not change his speed and will not change his demeanor, and he will eat you."
Researchers commonly find human garbage in the guts of Tigers, and the Tiger is responsible for nearly as many attacks on people as the great white.
Similar to the bull shark, Tigers have highly serrated teeth best suited for shearing, excellent for pursuing large fish, other sharks and stingrays, or for crunching through the shells of sea turtles. Tigers are found widely along the world's temperate and tropical coasts. Its characteristic dark spots become less distinct as the shark matures.
Mako (1,000 points to catch, 1,000 points hook-removal bonus)
Far-flung in the world's oceans, the Mako can be found as far north as Scandinavia and nearly as far south as Patagonia. It is a solitary shark, hydrodynamic, strong, aggressive.
Whereas the bull and Tiger sharks tend to shear prey's flesh with their teeth, the Mako is "more of a grabber," says ichthyologist George Burgess.
The Mako is the fastest shark, capable of speeds approaching 20 mph, and known for jumping above the surface, helping to make it a highly sought game fish.
Adults are usually around 10 feet long and weigh 135 to 300 pounds, though Ernest Hemingway himself caught a Mako weighing 786 pounds with a rod and reel. Its fins and liver oil are prized commercial products.
Aside from the fish's inherent attractiveness to anglers, the pelagic Mako is so prized in this competition because it tends to inhabit "blue water" rather than the flats so accessible around the lower Keys.
"We see them," guide Ken Harris says, "but the problem is we don't see enough to warrant going to catch one."

everybody wins but the owners of the sears hometown stores who in general are losing money with their investment each month.
it is certainly interesting that sears can publicly trade stores or store's assets they don't own. in a 'hometown store' the only investment from sears is the inventory; the building location, fixtures, etc are all the expense of the individual store owner.
I know a location in North New Jersey where the owner is doing very well and is very happy, in fact he is in the process of another location.
a couple responses..........
CORRECTION: sears does NOT get royalties or percentages. they PAY percentages (or commissions) to the hometown owners--and the commissions have been decreased dramatically

text: How To Become Pro At Chaining 1.0 Introduction Discussion thread in Stark Mountain, post there! Look At What I Chained Hello and welcome to Diesel's guide on How To Become Pro At Chaining. Study this guide, and use these techniques to instantly become a better chainer. I guarantee you'll be finding shinies in almost no time at all. This thread is a place where you can ask questions of pro chainers like myself, discuss chaining, update us on how your chaining is going, etc. There are really no formal rules about posting, just have fun with it, and talk about whatever you want. Please be helpful and respectful to others in order to keep a friendly environment please. I really don't want to see flaming of any kind in here. Table of Contents 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Need to Know 1.2 Coming Prepared 1.3 Hail to the Grid 1.4 Let's Get Chaining 1.5 Swarms 2.0 Credits 2.1 Helpful Links 1.1 Need to Know The Basics ~ Chaining: Using the PokeRadar to catch multiple pokemon of the same species consecutively. ~ There are two basic types of patches, Regular, which just shake, and Flashing which shake and flash white. ~ PokeRadar pokemon, or pokemon that can only be found with the PokeRadar, only appear in the Flashing patches. ~ Shiny pokemon appear only in patches that "glow" or "glimmer" two times. I will refer to these as Shiny patches. Not to be confused with the Flashing patches that you see all the time. A link showing what these patches look like is posted below, but you will know it when you see it without question. ~ 40 is the "magic number," meaning that once you get to 40 on your chain, your chances of seeing a Shiny patch are maximized. ~ After 40, Shiny patches typically appear about 1 every 20 super repels. I think the ratio is a little better than that, but that's the safe estimate. ~ Turning off the game will break your chain, saving will not. I recommend saving after each shiny or two that you get, just in case. ~ Start easy! Generally a very common pokemon, like Shinx or Starly, that appears in Regular patches. I started with Swellow, a PokeRadar pokemon and it sucked... a lot. General Advice 1. Read this!! Basically everything I know is in here, so I think you have almost all the information you need to become pro at chaining. There are a lot of tidbits in here, so if you have a basic question, chances are it's somewhere in here. 2. Read this... in moderation. If you read this entire thing all at once and expect to become a decent chainer right away, you're probably wrong. What I recommend is to absorb as much of this as you can, and try to use it when you begin chaining. There is a lot of detail and knowledge crammed in here though, so you won't be able to use it all your first time out. So keep referencing this guide as you go along, and keep incorporating the finer details into your chaining. For example, when you're just beginning you probably won't be able to tell a good patch from a decent one, but the more you chain the more you'll be able to grasp the concepts in here that allow you to find the best patches, and avoid the dangerous ones. Like a pokemon, you must evolve and learn new skills. 3. Chaining is very very difficult to master. You have to be persistent, or you will never be good. 4. Chaining takes a lot of focus. Getting distracted for 5 seconds can break your chain very easily. So turn off the TV, and maybe even *gasp* the computer, and try to chain in a distraction-free environment. 5. From my experience, if I get frustrated with chaining, I need to take a break from it. If you're like me, you'll find that if you chain for a couple hours and keep breaking your chains, it probably isn't going to get any better. So know when you need to set your DS down for a while, and you'll find chaining to be much more enjoyable. 6. Try to figure out what you're doing wrong. I can guarantee you your chain did break for a reason, so figure out what that is. This is a very efficient way to improve, and eliminate bad habits. 1.2 Coming Prepared "Not bringing your compass to Geometry is like not bringing your clothes to PE." ~My old Geometry teacher. 1. Bring repels, many repels! Running out of repels is a pretty lame way to break a chain, and can easily be avoided. I recommend bringing 200+ super repels every time out if you want multiple shinies. It took me 500+ repels to 27 shiny Budews, fortunately I came prepared. It also took me 150+ repels to get 1 shiny Lickitung, and I was pissed. Even if you think you're no good at chaining, you never know when you might get good, so stock up. 2. Bring balls! It takes balls to chain, it takes Pokeballs to catch, so have both. Make sure you've packed the balls you want to catch the pokemon. For example, some shinies look great coming out of Dusk Balls or Premier Balls. Quick Balls are my lucky balls, because I get my best IV's in them typically, so I like those, plus they're very efficient on most pokemon. 3. Scout the pokemon you're chaining! A quick trip to Serebii can save you a lot of suffering. Know where your pokemon is most common, what level it is, its catch rate, etc. Also check to make sure it won't have Roar or Whirlwind, because that could screw you over. If it does, prepare adequately. I had a tough time on my recent Chatot chain because I didn't expect that its catch rate was 30, so my 40+ Quick Balls were rendered useless, and eventually I ran out of viable balls. 4. Create your chaining team! There are a few choice pokemon I would recommend bringing with you. Generally, I would recommend that you bring high-level pokemon, since they're low-maintenance, meaning they won't get hurt and will OHKO and outspeed everything. Synchronizers (we'll get to these). Something that can easily OHKO the pokemon you're chaining, and has enough PP for the genocide you'll be starting. I recommend bringing a couple of these. Static-er, a pokemon with Static for if you're chaining an electric pokemon, as it makes them more common. Same goes for a Magnet Puller if you're chaining steel types. Something with False Swipe, and/or something with a sleep-inducing move, makes things easier to catch. I bring something with Pickup also, so that I can get items. However, this is pretty much worthless unless you can't afford Revives. Also anything with the HM's you'll need. I highly recommend that you have pokemon that fit two or more of these categories, since you only have several slots in your party. Make your party based on what/where you're chaining. 5. Synchronizers!! Make sure you have the correct nature of Synch for whatever you want to chain. They must be first in your party, and they can be KO'd. I typically have mine KO'd, since most are Lv. 1. 1.3 Hail to the Grid The Basic Grid Learn this shit! 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 Y 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 Green = Shaking, Red = Bad, Y = You This is an incredibly helpful mechanism, and something every chainer should take time to master. While chaining, you should visualize this grid around you, and it will make your life much easier. When your patches appear after resetting or battling, you should be able to identify the coordinates (x,y) of each patch. In my mind, I don't see all the numbers, I just see it like a graph pretty much. Basically it helps you to specifically identify where each patch is in relation to the others. As opposed to saying, "4 is in the upper right, 3 is in the upper middle, 1 is to my left, etc.," you can say "4 is two up and on the right, 3 is 1 left and up, etc." It's difficult to explain, but as long you're identifying the formation of patches you're fine. You'll see how the grid is used specifically below. Furthermore... ~There will always be one patch in the 4's, one in the 3's, one in the 2's, and one in the 1's. ~Never enter the patches above that are in red, in any scenario, they will break your chain more often than not! ~ONLY ENTER 4-AWAY PATCHES!! 3's, 2's, and 1's aren't safe, and should never be entered... ever. Can't stress this enough. You Shall Not Pass! Formations that can send you packing. On the following grids are formations that are NOT safe to enter. Sometimes they'll let you off easy, and won't break your chain, but don't expect them to be so friendly the next time. Avoid entering these at all costs! Note that 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 |~|~| 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 |~|~| 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 Y 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 Y 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 Y 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 |~|~| 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 |~|~| 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 1. Clusters: This is the easiest to identify, as it will be hard to overlook. If all 4 of your patches are in the same quadrant, always reset. If 2, 3, and 4 are all together, reset. If 3 is adjacent to 4, or their corners are touching, reset. This is pretty basic, and should be avoided with ease. 2. Isolation: This is when 1, 2, and 3 are all bunched and 4 is far away. The example in the grid above is a pretty obvious example of isolation. However, it is best to avoid having your 4-away isolated in any way. If it looks like your 4 is standing alone you should probably reset. 3. 1, 2, 4 together, 3 far away: This is certainly the trickiest of the three categories. It looks good at first, and will probably remain looking good until it has ended your chain, unless you examine the situation properly. Whenever you see 1, 2, and 4 together, check where 3 is. If it's far away, you'll probably want to reset. Even if it's close, you may want to reset anyway, because it could fall under the cluster category. Note that this is probably the least likely of the three to end your chain, but it's the most dangerous because you're inclined to think it's good. Even I still fall for this one sometimes, lol. Good Bets Ideal formations... usually. 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 |~|~| 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 Y 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 Y 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 |~|~| 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 |~|~| 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 1. (2,2) & (4,2): This is my favorite formation, and I'll always put my faith in it. Those exact coordinates almost never fail me. The 1's and 3's can be wherever, so long as they're not near the quadrant that the 2 and 4 are in. Slight variations on this are also very very good, such as (2,2) & (4,3) or (2,3) & (4,2). Also you can invert these combinations, of course, so that the x and y coordinates are flipped. It's just the pattern that matters, not which part of the grid it's on or if it's "horizontal" (like the example) or "vertical," like what the inverse of the example would be. 2. (2,3) & (4,3): Very similar to the previous one, same concept pretty much, both the 3's are highlighted because they're both probably good. This is so similar to the previous one because of the following explanation. General Theory on Optimal Patches: My general theory is that there are very few formations that will give you the maximum percentage. There is probably no one formation that will always work 100% of the time, there is always the slight chance it will break your chain. Don't despair, however, because there are formations, like the ones above, that will almost certainly extend your chain if you stick to them. My criteria is generally to have the 4-away in one quadrant, accompanied by either the 3-away or the 2-away. I like to make sure the 4-away "has a friend" (lol) that isn't too close, but doesn't isolate it either. The examples above are perfect representations of that, but not the only ones. If I can get these conditions, I like to have the 1-away outside the given quadrant, but sometimes it's okay if it's in there with the 4-away and 3-away, but obviously not with the 2-away. Then the 2-away or 3-away that is not the friend, should be outside the quadrant, and probably shouldn't border it either. Please note that this is the most conservative of strategies, and is not at all necessary to get to 40. I'll explain to you when to use it later. 1.4 Let's Get Chaining Pre-40 Tips 1. Enter 4-aways only!! Once again, this is extremely important. 2. Reset the radar when necessary. There is never any harm in simply reseting the radar. If you don't see a patch you like, then reset. 3. Avoid moving directly up. Your character obstructs your view of the patch directly above you. I would recommend not moving directly up. That is, unless you've seen a 1-away patch in another location, then you're safe, since there can only be one 1-away. In general though, it would be best to get into the habit of not moving up. 4. If all of the patches you see shake move off screen, your chain will break. So don't go running too far away. So if you enter a patch if the upper corner of a field, then make sure you don't go running across the field and lose sight of the patches you saw shake. 5. Learn to count your steps, it makes things easier and more efficient. I like to go 5 steps out and 5 steps back 5 times when reseting the radar. (5+5)*5 = 50. 6. Find the best square to start from, and use the PokeRadar from there. This means finding the patch where the most viable 4-aways are available to you. Depending on the size of your field, it can be obvious, but many times it isn't so count the number of viable 4-aways you would have in a certain patch to determine if you will start there or not. 7. Patches touch the edge of the field, trees, or other obstacles are dangerous! This is very important, even if you get your pokemon it can still break your chain. This is because all the patches that would appear after you killed the pokemon can land outside the field. If you didn't understand that, just take my word for it. Because of this, corners are especially dangerous, as they leave less room for patches to appear. Pre-40 Strategy: I would recommend starting out loose, then becoming more and more cautious as the chain progresses. For the first 15 patches I just enter most 4-aways, unless I'm almost certain they're no good. If I break my chain at 8, so be it, it didn't take very long anyhow. After 15, I tighten it up quite a bit, and take into account my Optimal Patch Theory (above). After 30, I am very very cautious, and strictly follow my Optimal Patch Theory. There is nothing more discouraging than breaking a chain when you're so close to the finish line, so be very careful here. Again, I'm pretty conservative while chaining, and prefer not to rely much on luck. If you want, disregard this completely and figure out what works for you, this is just a guideline. Post-40 Tips 1. Enter only Shiny patches!! This way, you will only get shinies, and prolong your chains far easier. There is absolutely no reason to enter anything else, unless you feel like it I guess. 2. Shiny patches that are on edges are risky. I've only broken a chain on these once, but I haven't entered many either. If you're really looking for a big chain, and you have a lot of repels, you may want to just reset, as painful as that is. I'd say you definitely have better than a 50/50 shot at continuing your chain, however. 3. Constant vigilance! Never look away, you can easily miss it when the patches are showing, and enter one you didn't see. This is how I break almost all of my Post-40 chains, and how you will break yours also. If you always pay attention, your chains will be very high. 1.5 Swarms Swarm pokemon are pokemon that only appear on a certain route on a random day. Each day you will have a different swarm. To find out what your swarm is, ask Dawn/Lucas's sister in Sandgem Town, and she'll tell you what and where it is. Swarm pokemon can be found in both Regular and Flashing patches, and appear 40% of the time. This is why they are considered easier to chain, which is nice because your time is limited. If you have a chain going, your swarm will not break at the end of the day (00:00)! This means you can keep your chain going as long as you can, but once it's broken, it's gone. If you have a swarm you like, but can't do it that day, simply make a chain of 1 before midnight, then continue it (with extreme caution) the next day. There are quite a few swarm pokemon, so chances are you'll have to wait for your swarm... or will you? 0.o Changing Your Swarm Skitties and Dunsparces not doing it for you? Here's how to get Absol and Beldum... 1. Check your swarm in Sandgem, even if you've already done so that day. 2. Save and turn off your DS, then turn it on and set the time to 23:59. 3. Turn on your DS (after it turns itself off -__-) and go into D/P. 4. Make it snappy because it must still be 23:59 when you enter your game. 5. Once the clock hits 00:00, talk to Dawn/Lucas's sister again. 6. How about that? Your swarm is now different! If your new swarm doesn't tickle your fancy, then simply repeat step 1-5. 2.0 Credits ~ The PokeRadar Topic on GameFAQs! This certainly deserves the biggest shout out. I learned to chain there, and I appreciate all the help everyone there has given me. I have brought many ideas from that thread here, but I can only hope I can recreate a small portion of its magic. Its longevity is unmatched, and has had over 55 threads of 500 posts each, which is absolutely incredible. I would like to thank Kyle, Lief, and B1001 from GameFAQs for their contributions to the PokeRadar Topic. ~ The Grid is credited to Kyle_Clarthy a genius from GameFAQs, who is a master of chaining as well as teaching people to chain. ~ The "Bad" Grid formations are credited to Fallen Seraphic, also from GameFAQs. ~ Thanks to everyone who originally supported this idea here on Smogon! ~ Thanks in advance to anyone who participates here, and who helps me to teach the art of chaining. 2.1 Helpful Links Links work now. Yay! Shuko's Video Tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkeKPlBYYbs This will give you a visual on the basics of chaining, well done. Shiny Patch Even though you'll know it when you see it, here's a picture of a shiny patch, in case you're anxious. This is a clean copy of the grid for you to copy and paste if you need it. 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 Y 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 Good luck, and happy hunting! ~Diesel

Rainloop: Lightweight Webmail Client
Productivity Sauce
Instead of relying on the web-based interface offered by your email provider, you can deploy your own webmail client using Rainloop. This fast and lightweight application is easy to deploy and features a polished interface. Deploying Rainloop on a server is easy. Run the following commands to create the rainloop directory in the server's root (in this case, it's /var/www), set the correct permissions and owner, and install Rainloop:
mkdir /var/www/rainloop cd /var/www/rainloop find . -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \; find . -type f -exec chmod 666 {} \; chown -R www-data:www-data . wget -qO- http://repository.rainloop.net/installer.php | php
Once you've done that, point your browser to http://127.0.0.1/rainloop/?admin (where 127.0.0.1 is the actual IP address or domain name of the server), and log in using the admin user name and the 12345 password. This drops you into the administration interface, where you can configure Rainloop's settings. The web-based mail client can handle multiple domains (i.e., you can use Rainloop to access email accounts from different email providers), and the application has a couple of domains preconfigured and ready to go, including Gmail and Yahoo! Mail. To add other domains, switch to the Domains section, press the Add Domain button and provide the required information. Rainloop doesn't provide native support for multiple users, but the application uses Facebook, Google, and Twitter for authentication, thus allowing users to log into Rainloop via these social services. In addition to that, Rainloop can be intergrated with Dropbox for attaching files directly from the Dropbox storage. To enable this functionality, switch to the Social section and configure the required settings (see Rainloop documentation for further info).
Using Rainloop couldn't be easier. Point your browser to http://127.0.0.1/rainloop, log in using your email credentials, and you should see Rainloop's interface in all its beauty. Since the application is not overloaded with features, you shouldn't have trouble figuring out how to use it. While Rainloop has a lot going for it, the application does have a couple of weaknesses. For exampe, the current version doesn't support identities, and the interface doesn't work well on mobile devices. This may well be dealbreakers for power users, but for those looking for a no-frills web-based email client, Rainloop can be just the ticket.comments powered by Disqus

Need to see the vehicle to help with that code! To many possibilities.
Stop driving car untill you have it checked out by a professional. If you don't it will be a very expensive repair.

Hot answers tagged barbecue-sauce
Most of the popular ingredients for BBQ sauce (vinegar/ketchup/sugar etc.) tend not to mix very well together. I know whenever I've made BBQ sauce, placing all of the ingredients into a pan together they tend to separate and are difficult to combine. Heating up the ingredients, however, causes them to combine better, and after a short time cooking they will ...
If you let it sit in the sauce overnight then it's no longer a sauce, it's a marinade. That's fine, but marinating is something you generally do with tough, cheap, and/or dry cuts of meat such as chicken breasts or top rounds (beef). For a full chicken, especially the wings, drumsticks and thighs, a marinade is entirely unnecessary and in my humble opinion ...
There are some sauce recipes where you need to thicken them to the point where they'd stay on whatever it is you're grilling. If you didn't cook them down, they'd have the consistency of a marinade, and just drip off. Sometimes you need to evaporate out some of the moisture, but other times you're actually creating chemical changes ... cooking sugar to a ...
I like to take a nice center cut pork loin and cook it in a slow cooker (crock pot) for 8 hours in homemade bbq sauce. When it's done, take it out, use two forks to shred it, then put the shredded pieces back into the sauce to coat. Mmmm...homemade pulled pork. Freezes really well in individual portions, too. Another option is to use it to marinade a ...
It all depends on the sauce. If it's thick, or if it contains a lot of sugar, then it can scorch over high heat. For something like that, I'd put the sauce on at the very end, or serve it on the side. If it's thinner (something based on wine, vinegar, fruit juice, soy sauce, etc) then it's absolutely OK to put it on before grilling, or marinate the chicken ...
Most sauces that I make require cooking because they have sugars that need to be heated to blend properly in the sauce. Spices that are added also need to be cooked to blend into the sauce evenly. BBQ sauce is mostly added at the end of the cooking process or at the table as a condiment. If it's not cooked first the spices and sugars would give the sauce a ...
Why does Tomato Sauce (ketchup) require refrigeration but Barbecue sauce (like Worcestershire sauce) does not?
You don't actually have to refrigerate ketchup. Once it's opened it's good for a month or so with no appreciable change. After that the flavour and colour starts to degrade, but it's still safe to eat. Worcestershire sauce is fermented for more than a year before it's bottled, so it will change at a much slower rate than an acidic, but unfermented sauce ...
BBQ sauce pizza w/ chicken, red onion, cheddar/american, etc... As sauce for enchiladas, tacos, quesadilas, etc.... BBQ wings. A spicy, cheesy casserole w/ corn, green beans, pasta, etc... Add some to spaghetti sauce for a kick. Obviously, sauce for just about any meat.
The easiest solution would be to add a thickening agent to your sauce. Which agent will depend on how much you are willing to have the texture of the sauce change in order to achieve a good suspension. One of the easiest methods, if you are also willing to alter the flavor profile in the direction of South Carolina or Germany, would be to add mustard. ...
Rule number one with sauces: don't miss an opportunity to add some flavor. The worst thing you can make is a bland sauce, and while I doubt a little water or watery store-bought broth would bland this one up, I'd use whiskey myself. It's liquid, the flavor should be compatible, and I've never seen a college student who couldn't lay his hands on a bottle. ...
You haven't given us much information to go on here, but I'm assuming your dry rub is a mixture of dried spices and possibly sugar. If that's the case, I would fry some onions and garlic and add the spices (not the sugar, which will burn) to them while they soften. Then I would add the usual BBQ sauce staples - ketchup, vinegar, some water, and the sugar ...
Rule #1 is always: When in doubt, throw it out. Nobody here can guarantee that it is safe. If you didn't pasteurize (or sterilize depending on acidity) then there is always a chance of dangerous contamination. That being said, Worcestershire and and molasses are both shelf-stable while bourbon (alcohol), lemon juice (acid), and vinegar (acid) are all types ...
We make our own pizzas and one thing we like to do is mix BBQ sauce with the tomato puree to go on the base - gives it a bit of a twist from normal pizza. Also, often I'll squirt a bit into shepherds or cottage pie with the meat to make it a bit different from normal.
We do ribs in an oven (no grill, but this works great on a grill if you have it) for about 2 hours wrapped in foil, remove foil, and add barbecue sauce at the end to cook on. We do a spice rub to begin with. Truly tasty!
The weather is a bit warm for it, but I use bbq sauce in my chili when I make it.
Sometimes it's okay to use store-bought chicken stock/broth. To get a little extra flavor in it, chop up some mirepoix (carrots, celery, onions in a 1:1:2 ratio) and boil the stock with the vegetables for an hour or so. Yes, store-bought stock is pretty awful compared to homemade, but there are so many flavorings in that recipe that you can get away with ...
Considering the sheer number of rather strong ingredients in that recipe - if it were me and I didn't have stock and didn't want to make or buy any...I'd substitute broth as a first option and salted water as a second option.
If I don't have any stock ready or chicken bones to hand then I just reach to the cupboard and open a stock cube or granules. On a side point, stock freezes very easily so if in future you buy whole chickens, you can make stock with the bones and then pop it in the freezer for later use.
Dennis, Welcome to the site! Generally we focus on the "how to make food" side here, but I thought I'd suggest some things to consider from a layman's perspective. There is no standard formula for how to figure this out because so much depends on your exact situation. (The amount of meat per sandwich is the result of your own cooking style.) Be ...
I haven't tried it with barbecue sauce, but I've had good luck freezing other sauces. Could you freeze it in batches large enough for one generous order of barbecued meat?
Why does Tomato Sauce (ketchup) require refrigeration but Barbecue sauce (like Worcestershire sauce) does not?
There is no definitive way to answer this without knowing the specific formulations of the products in question, which is almost certainly proprietary to the producing company. It is likely that the so-called barbecue sauce is in fact more than tomato sauce mixed with Worcestershire; it may be more acidic than the the tomato sauce, giving it greater ...
If I've understood the question correctly, there are a few possibilities: The vinegar you have used is too strong - some vinegars are milder than others You have boiled off so much water that the whole sauce is much stronger than it should be Something about your calculations or measurements was off Number 2 is the most likely. Larger volumes will take ...
No matter the option, the rub will be an accent to the sauce, not a main flavor. So it would be best to envision it that way from the beginning. It's actually a really good way to coalesce the spices you would add to your sauce, so that you don't have to do duplicate work. Just make double the rub you normally would, reserve half of it (PLEASE be sure you do ...
I wouldn't trust it to still be safe. You didn't sterilize the container first, and you absent any qualitative analysis of the overall Ph of your ingredients, I would assume it's not acidic enough to inhibit growth.
In that recipe, I'd substitute water, or omit entirely. There's plenty of flavor in the other ingredients, and it doesn't seem to be for texture. (If it was, a little gelatin would do the trick.)
Found this... http://www.copykatchat.com/sauces/7118.htm I've never been there, so I can't judge; but might be a good place to start.

Is not efficient :).
I'm trying to learn django by building a simple app. I bought a hosting plan on webfaction, set up github account and a putty on my Windows machine. I'm writing the "code" on my Windows, pushing it to github repo, then connecting via putty to my webfaction account to pull from github.
This is extremely tedious and boring process and I can't help but wonder that I'm doing something wrong. Even fixing a simple typo takes a lot of time. Are developers writing everything server-side using vim? This sound even less encouraging. Can I do something to improve my workflow? How it's done by professionals?

Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry Welcomes:
Dr. Yi Lu
"Functional DNA Nanotechnology and Its Applications in Environmental Monitoring, Food Safety, Medical Diagnostics and Imaging"
Professor, Department of Chemistry, Biochemistry, Bioengineering, Department of Materials Science & Engineering, and Beckman Institute for Advanced Science & Technology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Selective sensors are very ueseful for on-site and real-time detection in environmental monitoring, food safety, medical diagnostics and imaging. Despite much effort, few such sensors are commercially available. We have identified challenges in both fundamental sciences and in technological developments, and have made significant progresses in meeting these challenges.
In fundamental sciences, designing selective sensors based on a single class of molecules for a broad range of targets remains a significant challenge. Most processes are on a trial and error basis where successes in designing agents for one target can be difficult to translate success in designing agents for other targets. To meet these challenges, we have been able to use in vitro selection or SELEX to obtain DNAzymes, a new class of metalloenzymes that use DNA molecules exclusively for catalysis, and aptamers, a new class of nucleic acids that rivals antibodies, that can bind targets of choice strongly and specifically, and use negative selection strategy to improve the selectivity. By labeling the resulting DNAzymes and aptamers, callled Functional DNA with fluorophore/quencher, gold nanoparticles, gadolinium or supermagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, we have developed new classes of fluorescent, colorimetric and MRI agents for metal ions and a wide range of other targets with high sensitivity (down to 14 pM) and selectivity (> 1 million fold selectivity).1-3
In technological development, there are still significant barriers by the public to adopt new devices or technologies developed in academic laboratories. We are exploring ways to overcome this barrier by taking advantages of the wide availability and low cost of the pocket-sized electrochemical devices such as glucose meters to detect many non-glucose targets, ranging from vitamins (e.g., biotin), to toxic metal ions (e.g., Pb2+), adultrants (e.g., melamine), toxins (e.g., afflatoxins), and diseases (e.g., cancer and anthrax).4-6 Since in vitro selection can be used to obtain functional DNA to bind a wide range of targets, this approach can be readily used by the general public to detect many other targets in environmental monitoring, food safety, medical diagnostics and imaging.

We stayed in 4 hotels in Cyprus over a 10 day period, and this was not one of the better, but the price is good.
Friendly reception staff at check in and helped with taxi booking. Room a decent size and clean. Breakfast fine. Location is ok, but not great, you can walk to the salt lake, Makenzie beach and town, but none are exactly close, so can feel like a bit of a task just to go for dinner. The buses in the area are not the best either.
Wifi is not free anywhere in this hotel which is inexcusable in this day and age. We often stay in hostels and they provide it! Internet and PCs are available but very expensive (every restaurant in town offers it free!)
Breakfast finishes at 9.30 am which doesn´t help you feel on holiday and was earlier by a whole hour compared to the other hotels we stayed in Cyprus.
The taxi reserved by hotel to take us to bus station was over 15 minutes late, so we nearly missed our bus. Not the hotels fault but something to bear in mind.
Larnaca is a reasonable place, and this hotel does for a couple of nights near the airport, but I would not want to spend a week´s holiday at this hotel nor in Larnaca for that matter! (Pafos overwhelmingly gets the holiday vote…)
