IMPORTANT LEGAL NOTICE - The information on this site is subject to a disclaimer and a copyright notice.
Many manufacturing processes produce continuous
strips of material - steel and paper making are examples - in which
the product would be spoiled, and even rendered worthless, by surface
blemishes occurring during manufacture. Centro Sviluppo Materiali
(CSM), a materials research centre based in Rome, has long been
investigating methods of automating the surface inspection of steel
strip so that faults can be identified swiftly and efficiently.
In an earlier steel research project, CSM collaborated with steel
maker AST to devise an automated method of examining stainless steel
strip emerging from the annealing and pickling line at the Terni
steelworks in Umbria. That pilot project, completed in February
1994, was so successful that CSM was awarded further funding to
develop a prototype suitable for commercial application.
The prototype can inspect and analyse a complete steel strip as
fast as it can be manufactured. It consists of two main parts, the
Remote Acquisition Module and the Surface Inspection Module.
The Remote Acquisition Module is mounted close to the production
line. It contains a special camera which scans a line of 2,048 points
across the width of the strip producing an image in 256 shades of
grey. As the strip passes the camera, successive lines are added
to build up a complete image. The resolution of the image depends
on the size and speed of the steel strip, but is typically half
a millimetre to one millimetre.
If required, a second camera may be used to view the strip from
a different angle, as this usually makes it easier to detect the
complete range of defects.
The image is corrected for non-uniform illumination within the module
and then the digitised data is sent by a fibre-optic link to the
second major component, the Surface Inspection Module. Because the
amount of image processing required here is huge, much of the computation
in the module is carried out on hard-wired boards rather than by
a program held in memory. This is the only way the surface inspection
can keep pace with the speed of strip production.
As the manufactured surface is designed to be of uniform appearance,
defective areas generally show up where points in the image ('pixels')
differ in brightness from their surroundings. The first stage of
processing is a map of the strip showing individual defective pixels.
Next, neighbouring defective pixels are grouped into objects whose
'features' which are defined by 14 parameters including their geometric
properties (dimensions, area and perimeter) and their optical characteristics
(such as the maximum and minimum brightness). As many as 1,024 defects
can be handled at once. The parameters of each feature are then
passed to a classification unit which uses three different methods
to decide what kind of defect is present. For steel strip, for example,
the defects could be scratches, dents, bumps, stains, manufacturing
flaws and so on. Defects arising from impurities are particularly
important to recognise because most stainless steel products are
sold mainly by appearance, rather than their mechanical properties.
(For example, cutlery, pots and trays.) In addition, impurities
can break the metallic structure and create a weak point mechanically,
or they could affect the rust-free feature of stainless steel.
The first classification method, widely used in image-recognition
applications, simply compares the set of parameters with a standard
set for each type of defect to determine which class they fall into.
It is not very efficient in distinguishing defects where the permitted
ranges of parameters may overlap with each other.
Another method, one of several possible statistical approaches,
compares each defect with a sample of defects from a database and
calculates the probability of a match to each one. The class with
the highest probability is chosen. This method achieves 70-75% correct
A third method uses a neural network, a simple computer which can
be trained to recognise different kinds of defect by being shown
many examples. Although its success rate is only slightly better
than the statistical method, it works much faster.
All three methods are available to the operator, who can view the
results displayed on a standard PC and monitor. The final result
is a map of the whole strip, showing the location of each defect
marked by a symbol according to its type.
The system has been tested on a large database of known defects,
and is now 75-80% successful in distinguishing six classes of defect
on stainless steel strip. CSM is looking to improve this figure
by 'context analysis' which examines the relationship between each
defect and neighbouring defects. The classification efficiency would
need to reach 90% or higher to make it commercially attractive.
The original intention of a completely automated inspection system,
however, has been modified in the light of experience. It will not
be practicable in the near future to do away with visual inspection,
because it is not yet possible to completely replace human skill
and experience in recognising the many forms of defects in the steel.
How useful would such a system be in practice? While defects on
steel strip cannot normally be remedied, the inspection system does
provide rapid warning of problems in the manufacturing process which
can be dealt with before too much steel is wasted. It would be particularly
valuable at early stages of manufacture, where faults can be identified
before the material is passed to subsequent stages. In addition,
automatic inspection of the finished strip could be combined, for
example, with selective cutting, so that only the best sections
of strip are used and defective portions rejected.
CSM envisages applications for the inspection system in any industrial
process in which sheet material of uniform appearance is produced
in continuous strips, such as papermaking, plastics and metals other
than steel. Of course, the nature of the defects will be different
from process to process, but the principle remains the same.
CSM is already negotiating with a potential partner to commercialise
the system. There are several on-line inspection systems on the
market, but none is efficient at classifying defects correctly.
The classification algorithm is the most innovative component of
the CSM system and could even find market potential in its own right.

This book started to take form when an 18th-century silver spoon washed up on the beach near author Rosalind Laker's home. It bore the proud mark of a London silversmith—a woman silversmith by the name of Hester Bateman. Fired with curiosity, Ms. Laker researched the fascinating Bateman family. During the Georgian period, the Batemans rose from potential ruin to being leading craftsmen who were known to have that elusive Silver Touch that marks a master workman.

(dr im seeing is leaving soon and a new dr is coming etc) the dr who i see at magee wants to induce me at 36 weeks.. so now i gotta decide if i wanna just say okay u do it or try to figure out something closer to home.. but 36 weeks is when he wants to do it if he does it.. that is so close! so now i gotta figure this out... and family/clark is no help my dad thinks one thing my mom probably thinks another and clark has no answer he just wants to make sure i have the best dr and he doesnt really like any of my drs... on top of that we have the stomach flu goin around my house.. ugh i feel crappy! well off to nst and to my moms for the weekend as im not aloud to be home alone bc of dizzy lightheaded-ness... ill try to post more when im at her house.. if preg.org lets me sign in there..
quick up date...
So glad to hear they are growing so well. Only 4 more weeks, that crazy. You must be so excited/nervous.
4 weeks is close. Honestly though, if they are monitoring and things are going well, I would not want the doc to take them right at 36wks. If the girls are doing well, keep them baking. I did have mine taken at 36wks, but was 100% effaced and 4cm, and 30+ min away from the hospital, so the risk of having twins at home was high. Anyhow, at 36wks 2 days all was well, but Baby B spent 4hrs in the NICU, and we were very blessed that neither spent more than that there. Even though it is can be considered term, it does not mean they will be healthy, so I would be wary of him wanting to deliver them just because you are 36 wks, ya know?
Glad to hear things are going well for you. Is there a reason he wants to induce at 36 weeks? That does seem a bit early. My OB said he wouldn't consider induction or c-section until 38 weeks unless there was an issue necessitating an earlier delivery. I myself am "aiming" for 37+ weeks. 11/1/11 I will be 37 weeks...so I am keeping that as my minimum goal. As PP said, the longer baking is better, although it gets hard near the end (so I am told/hearing!)
Super sorry about the stomach bug.:( Keep yourself hydrated!!
copying what i posted on the sept board earlier bc gage is buggin me about a bath etc.. lol but basically he says 36 weeks.. bc of the operation/and sewing my cervix shut and the hosp is 2 hrs away.. he wants to make sure if hes doing it i get there etc.. and the fact that my drs at my normal dr office keep changing.. went to my normal dr today.. saw a dr that will still be there when the babies will be born.. he said 36 weeks would be good especially in magee.. that they take twins early etc.. and in my case my plecenta is "old" bc of 2 babies using it.. since they share it.. and keeping them in longer could be harmful.. espeically with the stress that has been put on mine.. he said if this dr who did the operation wanted 36 weeks.. to go for it.. but he will do it at 37 weeks at the hosp that is closer to home.. but he wouldnt let me go past 38 and he would be leaning more towards 37.. so now i gotta talk to the dr who did the operation at magee and tell him what my dr said.. and see what he says.. i feel id rather have it done at hosp closer to home.. at 37 weeks.. but the other hosp has the best nicu etc.. but my dr thinks at 37 weeks they would be fine to have at the hosp closer to home.. so eather i have them at 36 weeks at hosp with great nicu... or 37 at a hosp that would have to take the girls to a different hosp if they really needed it..

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Oct 01st, 1996
Running Time: 80
Director: Bud Lee
Company: Sin City Entertainment
Cast: Nici Sterling, Rebecca Lord, Jeanna Fine, Mike Horner, Jonathan Morgan, Jill Kelly, Asia Carrera, Wilde Oscar, Randy West
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Follow-through's a bitch. Blue Dreams begins as an engaging examination of Jonathan Morgan's psychological domination of Nici Sterling... his willing prisoner who sucks his root and laps up his cheese whiz.
Morgan's shrink, Asia Carrera, who has a few arousal problems at home with hubby Horner, unfurls his problem while stoking her own unfulfilled fantasies -- such as being taken rather forcefully in a dream/bondage dungeon by the Horner/Morgan combo. Her body stocking is ripped off, her nipples tweaked, and after a bit of off-camera whipping, two loads of groin sauce are launched on her tits.
The feature meanders into some unfulfilled sex scenes (Jill Kelly/Randy West; Jeanna Fine/Rebecca Lord) which drop in from, and go... nowhere. Whussup?
The extended resolution stops the show dead, but before a decent anal reaming with Nici and her new beau Wilde Oscar, who rides her tush like a jockey and spews on her lips. Creative videography keeps most of the show on track. Guide it directly to Asia Carrera fans.

Michael Arrington Bites Down On the AOL Hand That Feeds Him [Update]
The fight continues in the comment section!
There's been plenty of jabs thrown since AOL bought Michael Arrington's blog, TechCrunch, back in September. But despite Arrington's bombastic personality, most of the blows so far have been between the founder and his former friend Jason Calacanis. Yesterday, however, Arrington, who remained more civil than Calacanis during the feud, decided, "for no apparent reason," says Business Insider, to redirect his ire at his new employer. Tuesday night, Arrington called Engadget, AOL's premier tech blog, "a plasticized caricature of a real blog," criticizing it for buying traffic through Google Adwords, something Engadget wasn't doing. According to insiders, Engadget is bigger and more important to AOL's page views, but AOL CEO Tim Armstrong "likes it because it has cachet with all of his inside friends." Both Engadget and TechCrunch are members of AOL's "Tech Town" subdivision, and the former just raked in crazy page views for its exhaustive coverage of the Consumer Electronics Show. (After the latest reorganization, each editorial unit got their own town.)
For his next random act of hostility, Arrington aimed a little higher up the food chain. In reference to AOL's decision not to sue a company called Salescrunch for infringing on his name, Arrington tweeted, "My guess is AOL rolls over on this whole salescrunch bullshit. Back in the day, though, I wouldn't have. pathetic." Since the subject of the tweet is AOL's response, not Salescrunch's name, it seems hard to read "pathetic" as referring to anything but the act of rolling over. Arrington disagreed. He told Business Insider that he was calling Salescrunch pathetic, adding, "AOL can be plodding and conservative, but they aren't pathetic by any means." Oh, to be a fly on the wall during his next performance preview. Actually, he'll probably get a pat on the back for changing the headlines.
AOL'S NEW PROBLEM: Mike Arrington [BI]
AOL Layoffs Start Today, Pick Up Steam As Week Goes On [BI]
Update: The fun continues in Business Insider's comment section! Arrington, Business Insider's founder, Henry Blodget (who, it should be noted, has a vested interest in making his competitor look like a crank), and Engadget's editor-in-chief, Joshua Topolsky, continue to duke it just below the takedown. After claiming that the article was "irresponsible" and based on a misunderstood tweet, and that he wasn't trying to get fired, Arrington took aim at Engadget, while still managing a big swipe at Blodget for getting barred from securities trading for life for hyping Internet stocks for his own gain during the dot-com bubble. Says Arrington:
"The point I'm making is that my feelings for Engadget - that they're immensely unethical - doesn't go beyond that. They seem to have a problem with AOL management not quieting me. It's like telling mom when your brother is picking on you. They've trolled us, repeatedly, for a year. I've had enough.
Anyway, we're in the same business. You [Blodget] know and I know that this was way overreaching and will probably hurt some people at AOL. That's a shame. Having a moral compass is important, something I thought you learned a decade ago."
Blodget, who does his share of hyping Internet start-ups in our current burgeoning bubble, ignores the dig. But Topolsky responds: "My team works their collective ass off, and they deserve better than your baseless attacks and name calling. Grow up."

This question has also been asked and answered here: Oxycodone vs Hydrocodone - What's the difference between them?

Oxycodone hydrochloride is just simply pure oxycodone with no other non narcotics mixed in with it to (help) such as apap which is just tylonol as u already know. Think of hydrochloride as oxycodones last name just like sativa is to cannibus. The answer to your question about the little green pill being timed release it isn't, it is a 15mg immediate release oxyycodone hydrochloride (pure oxycodone no other added active drugs at all)that is meant to be taken as needed every 4-6hrs hope i helped u out god bless.
Thank you so much for the answer It really helped and makes a lot of sense.
Oh wow. Thank you I did not know that. I feel better i switched to the non Tylenol one...
I totally agree about taking as little Tylenol as possible... it is TERRIBLE for your liver, however, In my experience, I have found it nearly IMPOSSIBLE to find a doctor who will prescribe not only oxycodone alone without the Tylenol additive, but also even the hydrocodone without it. not sure if its all the doctors themselves, or if its an insurance thing, but ive had a heck of a time getting the Tylenol removed from my daily pain regimen... and I have active, chronic hepatitis C, which destroys my liver on its own on a daily basis and definitely needs NO help from Tylenol or any other unnecessary substance!!! I got her to write me scripts for Vicoprofen rather than Norco for awhile, since ibuprofenis less harmful to the liver and my enzymes are often out of whack... but after a while, my doctor said basically that she didn't have the time each month to call and make a special request to my insurance company... smh
and when I asked about medication WITHOUT any added meds like Tylenol OR ibuprofen... and was immediately asked why I knew so much about pain medications and began getting trated like a drug seeker!!! which I AM NOT... so I found this VERY offensive and walk on eggshells every time I have to go into her office now... it gives me chronic anxiety just KNOWING when I have to go in person!!! makes you afraid to be honest and ask questions, thank God for the internet!!

Hi NogDog,
Thanks for the succinct and accurate reply.
Both work.
Thanks for the reply, Jeff. That link to the php site is very good.
Appreciate the help.
Another correction:
Given this test code below, is the reference to $a['elt1'] valid in the <input> tag value="$a[elt1]">? That is, no quotes around the key, elt1.
Correction: That question should read:
Given this test code below, is the reference to $a['elt2'] valid in the <input> tag value="$a[elt1]">? That is, no quotes around the key, elt1.
My question has to do with whether or not the syntax I am suing is "valid" php syntax, i.e. is it standard practice? will it be supported in future versions of php?

I recently upgraded the wireless network card in my Ubuntu PC from an 802.11g to an 802.11n.
Now, it can't see my router. It doesn't appear in the list of networks that is displayed when you click on the NetworkManager icon in Gnome. Other networks are listed and I have connected to them (no password required!).
I'm using the Windows driver through ndiswrapper and it can see the card. I tested the card in a Windows PC and everything worked.
The router's log doesn't show any messages coming from the wireless card.
What have I done wrong?
If you need any more information, just leave a comment and I'll get add it to the question.

Vote Nevada And Bring ESPN GameDay To Reno!
April 23, 2012
For the first time ever, ESPN will film a College GameDay commercial on a university campus selected by fans. Beginning on Monday, April 23, college football fans across the country can participate in a social media promotion to have a College GameDay spot shot on their campus this summer.
Through May 2, fans can vote once per day for their university at GameDayVote.com via computers or smartphones or using the Facebook app at facebook.com/collegegameday. Fans can keep track of the leading schools throughout the promotion and share the contest with friends on various social platforms to drive votes for their university.
More than 120 FBS football programs will be included in the promotion and schools will be encouraged to actively drive participation. ESPN will drive participation in the contest with a robust digital and social media plan that uses paid and owned media.
This first-of-its-kind spot will be filmed this summer on the selected campus with real students and begin airing in the fall to promote the 2012 season of College GameDay Built by The Home Depot. The contest highlights College GameDay's unique on-campus presence while building on the successful social vote last season which asked fans to choose a mascot for the ESPN College GameDay Dry Cleaners spot.
Now in its 26th year, College GameDay Built by The Home Depot airs Saturdays at 9 a.m. ET on ESPNU and at 10 a.m. ET on ESPN.
About College GameDay
Entering its 26th season and 20th of originating from a game, ESPN's College GameDay won the Sports Emmy in 2010, 2009 and 2007 for best weekly studio show and was the recipient of the 2006 Outstanding Contributor to Amateur Football Award, given by The National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame Awards Committee.

I use the paid plug in and it works. I will probably continue using it until something better comes along.
However some of the advertised features either don't work correctly or just aren't there. For instance, it offers optional services to be added but for some reason the optional services calculate the total wrong. Code People's response to this? Please buy a technical support access for another $25.
Also, the captcha doesn't work at all. I have four hotel sites and followed Code People's suggestions to disable the other plugins but no luck. But they want me to buy a technical support access for another $25.
The apostrophe shows up as "//////" on messages to my clients. As in, "Thank you for reserving with Tony/////s ecolodge".
On their plugin site they talk about a customizable field which would be ideal for what I do, unfortunately I can't find where it is offered, even with the updated plugin installed. Code People's response is, of course, is to buy technical support access for $25.
And you have to manually check for updates; this product does not automatically update like most of the other plugins do.
So my suggestion is to take advantage of their 60-day technical service package that you get when you buy the product by putting the plugin to the test. Blast all the holes in it you can and get them to fix them to make it bullet proof. No guarantee they will, however.
I can understand a plugin that can be a bit buggy... I know that coding something that works for everyone all the time is next to impossible. But I feel that the customer service policy is at the low end of acceptable considering how buggy their product can be.
The free version of the plug-in is good. But I needed a few customizations and so far the developers have delivered exactly what I needed in a very timely manner. Excellent product and customer service!
Thank You!
The visual way for selecting the sliced days reservation is awesome. Already found other plugins supporting sliced days reservations but not as visual as this reservation calendar. The availability is also clear after a first look, avoids going back to the date selector once and once again to locate available dates. I guess I'll get more happy customers from now on.

The dumping of Kate Wilkinson as Conservation Minister - she
was replaced by Nick Smith last month - is not expected to
have any implications for two contentious concession
applications for commercial operations in the Fiordland and
Mt Aspiring National Parks.
In late 2011 Ms Wilkinson announced her intention to grant
concessions to both Milford Dart Ltd and Riverstone Holdings
Ltd to create the Dart Passage Tunnel and the Fiordland Link
Experience, respectively.
Her announcement triggered a public process, in which 1235
submissions were received on the Dart Passage Tunnel and
another 318 people submitted on the monorail proposal.
Hearings for both projects were held separately in March and
April last year before submissions were summarised.
A recommendation was then to be prepared and forwarded to
delegated decision-maker Sue Cosford.
Department of Conservation media adviser Reuben Williams, of
Wellington, said yesterday ''at this stage'' the announcement
of Dr Smith as Conservation Minister was not expected to have
any implications for the process and it was ''business as
''We've been interacting with the applicants. No decision has
been made.
''There is no set time frame ... we are not sure when the
decision will be made.
''We are working through the process.''
MDL hopes to establish an 11.6km commercial bus tunnel
between the Routeburn valley, in Mt Aspiring National Park,
and the Hollyford Valley in the Fiordland National Park, at a
cost of about $150 million.
Riverstone proposes a catamaran trip across Lake Wakatipu to
Mt Nicholas, followed by an all-terrain vehicle trip to the
Kiwi Burn, and a 43km monorail journey to Te Anau Downs on
Lake Te Anau. Its project would cost an estimated $175

Hello, EMI. Goodbye, A and M.
That ain't bad for two weeks work and 75,000 pounds. On this day in 1977, after being with the label for just six days, punk pioneers The Sex Pistols were fired from A&M Records due to pressure from other label artists and its Los Angeles head office. 25,000 copies of 'God Save The Queen' were pressed and the band made £75,000 ($127,500) from the deal, thus cementing the legend of the Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. Under pressure by Conservative MP Robert Adley among others due to their outrageous behavior - specifically, their notorious performance on ITV Today with Bill Grundy - EMI had dumped the band in January. Also appearing on television with Grundy and the Pistols that day were members of the Bromley Contingent: Siouxsie Sioux and Steve Severin, who later formed Siouxsie and the Banshees.
rest in peace...
John McGeogh dead at 48. A founding member of Magazine, guitarist for "Kaleidoscope"-era Siouxsie and the Banshees and Public Image Ltd in the late '80s, McGeogh died in his sleep last night.

text: With this UU team, I decided to play is safe to begin with and stick with the Fire/Water/Grass core. It was done pretty well but could use some tweaking so any suggestions would be appreciated. Darmanitan @ Choice Scarf Trait: Sheer Force EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 SDef Jolly Nature - Flare Blitz: Incredibly powerful STAB physical Fire attack that I'm able to hit anything hard with when paired with Sheer Force. - Rock Slide: My answer to revenge killing weakened Flying types and is boosted by Sheer Force. Also is a nasty surprise for a correctly predicted Chandelure or Arcanine switch. - U-turn: Reason why I usually lead with him. I can see what I'm up against and switch out/scout while doing reasonable damage - Earthquake ===> Superpower: Although the attack and defense drop is nasty, upon removing mienshao, i found myself with a huge snorlax weakness and superpower seems to cover that nicely Darmanitan is the Fire that ignites the intense passion of my team… Not really. I got sick of seeing so many Chandelures everywhere, so when it came to the Fire member of my Fire/Water/Grass core, I went a little different and chose Darmanitan. He has a huge Attack stat, especially for UU and can bulldoze through a weakened team with Flare Blitz, assuming the opponents Flash Fire user is gone. Darmanitan is great for revenge killing and even can take a chunk of damage away with u-turn. Granted his survivability is not great due to its weakness to SR and Flare Blitz recoil, but when equipped with a choice scarf, it's fast and hits like a truck. Blastoise @ Leftovers Trait: Rain Dish EVs: 252 Def / 252 HP / 4 SAtk Bold Nature - Scald ===> Hydro Pump: It was getting incredibly ridiculous how I never once got a burn... ever... Im not even kidding. It was pissing me off so badly. So I just went for more power - Toxic: Useful for stalling and statusing on switches - Rapid Spin: Hazards really hurt Darmanitan and Zapdos - Roar: Scouting and Phazing… That's about it. Prefer over dragon tail due to its ability to hit through a sub How fitting to use the original Water member for my core. While it may seem unassuming, Blastoise really holds my team together. He spreads a lot of useful status, phazes set up sweepers (hello crocune) and also works as a defensive tank to threats like Moxiecross and other physical attackers. Although rain is rarely ever used in UU, Torrent was not exactly useful as Blastoise is pretty easily picked off when in range where Torrent would be useful. Like I stated earlier, I needed a spinner so I chose Blastoise because it acts as my spinner, phazer and status spreader, not to mention a valuable physical wall. Shaymin @ Leftovers Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 4 SDef / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Air Slash/Hidden Power Fire: Although HP Fire is more common on shaymin, two of my other members have fire coverage so air slash can ohko on the switch for heracross as well as being slightly more powerful on grasses and bugs. Plus the flinch chance is always nice. - Seed Flare: very powerful STAB with a large chance to half the opponents spdef - Earth Power: good coverage and can cause big damage to chandelure switch-in - Rest ===> Synthesis: Can recover hp without having to switch, plus with weather being virtually nonexistent, it can reliably recover half health Underestimate this little cutie at your own peril. Shaymin completes my fire/grass/water core. It works well as my special attacker, especially as it can absorb status from Tangrowth (a big threat to mienshao) and cause major damage with air slash while being immune to leech seed. Shaymin, while not defensive, is surprisingly bulky and can take a neutral hit. ===> Cofagrigus @ Leftovers Trait: Mummy EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SAtk Quiet Nature - Trick Room: whoa... a fast coffin with four arms... commence nightmares - Shadow Ball: STAB... thats about it - Hidden Power Fighting: Perfect coverage with shadow ball - Nasty Plot: turns Cofag into a deadly bulky sweeper Although I used to have Mienshao in this spot, it was suggested that i switch Zapdos for Cofagrigus to cover my fighting weakness while still having a defensive tank that hits hard. However, upon testing without Zapdos, I realized just how important Zapdos was to my team and just how much I relied on its STAB and EQ immunity. So i needed to put Zapdos back on this team, and realized that although Mienshao is fast and powerful, it rarely was that useful in my battles and was 90% of the time, the first one fainted. Cofag is scary good. Although I was incredibly skeptical in the initial stages of BW, revisiting it proves how wrong I was. Cofag can switch into choice locked Heracross and Flygon, set of trick room, usually get a nasty plot off, and proceed to wreck. Zapdos @ Leftovers ===> Life Orb Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 200 Def / 52 Spd ===> 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Bold Nature ===> Timid Nature - Heat Wave: Hits steel and grass switches - Thunderbolt: STAB move with preferred accuracy - Toxic: Spread status on switches and stalls ===> Hidden Power Grass - Roost: Recovery to help win stall wars Bulky Zapdos works as a great defensive pivot who can reliably counter physical attacks with a resistance to fighting attacks as well as an immunity to ground attacks. Additionally, zapdos can almost always survive a non-STABed stone edge. Zapdos is very hard to kill and despite its weakness to sr, it can usually stay alive long enough to recover. I switched from Bulky Zapdos to attacking Zapdos because i missed the eq immunity and the electric STAB. Zapdos has the magic base 100 speed and can hit hard with 125 base spatk. Although it doesn't have the durability that bulky Zapdos does, my addition of Cofagrigus works as my defensive pivot that bulky Zapdos previously was. Plus I just love Zapdos Rhyperior @ Leftovers Trait: Solid Rock EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD ===> 248 HP / 16 Atk / 244 SpD Adamant Nature - Earthquake: powerful STAB that hurts anything that isn't immune - Megahorn: For slowbro, slowking, and claydol - Stealth Rock: Hazards… gotta have em - Rock Blast: rock STAB that breaks subs and sashes Rhyperior can tank a number of different common types in UU and even takes less than 50% from an Ambipom seed bomb. This is my hazard setter as it causes many switches in fear of its powerful EQ. Its rock secondary typing provides the edgequake coverage and megahorn can be used to hurt the common grass or slow- switchins.

A week ago Sunday, two cyclists Kristy Gough and Matt Peterson, were killed in the San Francisco Bay Area when an on-duty Santa Clara County Sheriff failed to negotiate a right hand bend on a twisty road and came across a double yellow line and struck the riders. Cyclists dying in car crashes is, unfortunately, an all-to-common occurrence these days, but dying because a law enforcement vehicle crossed a double yellow line for no apparent reason elevated the tragedy. Add to that the fact that both cyclists had, the weekend before, won their categories at the Merco Cycling Classic and you had an event that rocked the entire Bay Area cycling community.
The accident made front page news across Northern California and was covered by the local TV crews as well with daily updates from both the print and broadcast media. A tragedy of this magnitude brings out the whole spectrum of emotions and while cyclists grieved the loss of their compatriots, it also opened the door for the renewal of the timeless banter between cars and bicyclist as to proper road etiquette.
Frankly, I am saddened and tired of all the anti-cyclist tirades from car drivers who feel that bicycles have no place being on the roadway. But, I am also disappointed by the cyclists who feel that guerrilla tactics and confrontation are the only way to resolve the conflicts. Why can't we all just get along? At the very least, cyclists can go a long way in helping the cause by acting like a vehicle while on the road and obeying all traffic laws that doing such entails. Car drivers can learn to be more tolerant and share the road even if it means you have to slow down to pass.
A memorial ride was held on Saturday to remember two special people who will never again turn a pedal. I was blown away when over 1000 cyclists, many of whom had ridden down from San Francisco and Oakland and parts even further north came to pay their respects. I met a guy who hadn't ridden his bike in 30 years, but was so touched by the accident that on that very morning he had gotten his old Nishiki down from the attic in his garage, taken it to his local bike shop to put on some new tires just so he could take part. It was a procession of unfathomable significance and showed just how deeply we cyclists feel when the road(maybe that's a nice way to say 'a car') claims more victims.
Clearly, there needs to be a lot of healing in the Bay Area cycling community and remembering those who left us is the first step. I don't know what comes next, but clearly tensions are hot and hopefully everyone can take a deep breath, relax and try to get along. While this was a truly tragic event, hopefully positive things can come from it. Judging by the support from the majority of the car drivers who witnessed the procession, I hope so.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Fred Taylor ran the ball Sunday as well as he ran his mouth all week.
The result for Jacksonville was a surprising 28-23 victory over the Indianapolis Colts, highlighted by Taylor's game-winning, 32-yard touchdown run with 1:08 left.
Taylor finished with a season-high 152 yards and delivered on his promise to "punish" Colts safety Mike Doss, whose rough play in the season's first meeting prompted Taylor to send out this midweek warning: "I'm going to punish him. If he hits me, fine, but if I catch him, believe me, I'm going to get the better shot."
As it turned out, Taylor's trash talk was the perfect motivation for the Jaguars (2-7), a struggling team in desperate need of a spark.
"He spoke out this week, which doesn't happen too often," coach Jack Del Rio said. "What we talked about as a team is, when one of our guys puts himself out there, we have to back him up."
They did, and the Jaguars earned the first victory in franchise history over the Colts (7-2), who fell into a first-place tie with Tennessee in the AFC South.
Jaguars 28, Colts 23P>
Impact: Jacksonville earned its first victory in franchise history over the Colts.
Key Stat: The Jaguars' Fred Taylor ran for a 32-yard game-winning touchdown with 1:08 left to play.
After Taylor's score, Peyton Manning needed to move 66 yards with one timeout to engineer his 19th career game-winning drive. But he threw an interception to Deke Cooper with 11 seconds left to end his chances.
Indy walked away with a loss and some prickly issues to go with it:
The Colts played the final three quarters without receiver Marvin Harrison, who strained his hamstring, and whose status for next week wasn't immediately known.
Also, some players were snippy in the locker room, upset with play-calling that was heavy on screen passes and light on handoffs. Edgerrin James finished with 15 carries for 44 yards and six catches for 26 yards.
"Maybe I'm not good enough, but I don't make those decisions," said James, who shared significant time with Ricky Williams. "I don't know why we had so many screens called. That's not my call. I just do my job."
Manning threw for 347 yards, with two TDs and two interceptions.
While Taylor was Jacksonville's star, the victory also marked a big step forward for rookie Byron Leftwich. He finished 12-for-22 for 179 yards and was turnover-free after committing 15 in his first five starts.
Leftwich hit Jimmy Smith for a pretty 43-yard touchdown to give the Jaguars a 21-20 lead early in the fourth period after they trailed by 13. The touchdown came four plays after a 28-yard completion to George Wrighster that bounced off three or four Colts before settling in the tight end's hands.
"I finally got the play I see all those other quarterbacks get every week," Leftwich said. "Once I got that play, I said, 'Dang, something finally went your way."'
Manning responded with a 70-yard completion to Marcus Pollard to set up a go-ahead field goal. A few minutes later, David Allen returned a short Indy punt 27 yards to the Colts' 31. Taylor then took a handoff and broke three tackles - including an attempt by Doss - for his second touchdown of the game.
Taylor cracked the 100-yard mark for only the second time this season, both against the Colts. Taylor said his anger stemmed from Doss pushing his head to the ground after recovering a fumble during Indy's 23-13 victory over Jacksonville in Week 3.

The city of Dothan continues it's search for a new chief of police.
City manager Mike West says he received about 70 applications for the job.
He's narrowed the field down to about a dozen candidates.
He expects to recommend his choice for chief by the end of the month.
But Tuesday at the Dothan city commission meeting, one candidate believes he may have been passed over for the job because he's African-American.
Lieutenant Keith Gray has been with the Dothan Police Department for the past 24 years.
He says he meets all the qualifications for police chief according to the job description provided by the city.
He claims after he submitted his application, the city changed their qualifications; a practice Gray deems unfair.
"I'd rather be told that I am not wanted in the position as police chief when I am eligible, instead of insulting my intelligence by changing the policy and then telling me that I am not qualified," said Gray.
City officials say the job description was never changed but Dothan's personnel director says his office is investigating Lieutenant Gray's claims.
