Philadelphia, PA (NNCNOW.com) --- The Union College men's hockey team scored four first-period goals and outshot Minnesota 42-36 en route to beating the Gophers 7-4 to claim their first-ever NCAA Division I national championship.
Justin Kloos put the Gophers on the board first before Shayne Gostisbehere answered. Sam Warning then notched a goal to put Minnesota on top 2-1. The Dutchmen responded with three goals of their own.
Late in the third period, the Gophers trailed 5-3 until Hudson Fasching cut the deficit in half. Union would add the last two tallies including an empty-netter to clinch the national crown.
It was Minnesota's 11th appearance in the national championship while Union made its title game debut.

PLANTATION KEY, Fla. — Authorities have identified a Pennsylvania man who died after diving in the Florida Keys.
The Monroe County Sheriff's Office reports that 52-year-old Christopher Johnson of Camp Hill, Pa., was with two friends diving off Plantation Key Thursday when he became unresponsive. His friends performed CRP, and Johnson was later taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Sheriff's detectives are investigating the case. An autopsy will determine the cause of death.
It wasn't immediately known if Johnson was participating in the two-day recreational spiny lobster season. One diver was reported dead during last year's mini season.

In Times of Need
Cancer Daily Horoscope
A cooperative and easygoing mood can help you discover new ways of participating in the lives of your loved ones today. As you are likely quite eager to help others however you can, you may encounter many opportunities to support the people you care about. You may be surprised to find that your presence and your willingness to lend a helping hand both contribute positively to the strength of your relationships. Whether others look to you for inspiration when they feel moved to be of service today or you yourself end up in need of assistance, your example can ensure that aid will be available to all who need it.
When the important people in our lives have learned that they can rely on us for the aid and support they need to achieve their goals, they will be more likely to come to us in times of great turmoil or trauma. Many individuals feel uncomfortable helping others because they are unsure as to whether their assistance will be welcome or appreciated. We can overcome this hesitancy in our own spheres of influence by cultivating a culture of helpfulness and conscientiousness that spreads throughout our peer group. Because we are there for others unconditionally and without fail, they instinctively understand that we will accept any aid they choose to give us when our lives are affected by upheaval. Your collaborative spirit will serve you well today, inspiring others to be similarly aware of the needs of their loved ones and colleagues.

Yet more evidence that transgenic contamination is inevitable and unavoidable.
Prof. Joe Cummins
The spread of transgenes from genetically modified crops is a great threat to the quality of certified seed. Canola (oilseed rape in the UK) (Brassica napus, B. rapa, B. campestris) is the second most valuable crop in Canada. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), a
sub department of Agriculture Canada, requires a distance of 200 metres separation between fields growing certified seeds from any other Brassica, and a distance of 50 metres from weedy relatives. Recently, however, producers of hybrid canola seed have required a separation of 2 kilometers
from a Brassica crop, in recognition that pollen from a Brassica crop may travel as far as a kilometer or more. CFIA separation distances are evidently inadequate for insuring the purity of certified seeds.
Friesen, Nelson and Van Acker in the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, studied certified canola seed stocks for contamination due to transgenes for herbicide tolerance to glyphosate, glufosinate or thifensulfuron [1]. Certified seed stocks were studied in field plots to
which herbicides were applied. The results showed that 95% of 27 certified seed lots were contaminated with herbicide tolerance transgenes; with 52% of the seed lots exceeding the 0.25% maximum contamination standard set for certified seed. Some lots were tolerant to both glyphosate and
A year earlier, Downie and Beckie from AgriFood Canada in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan [2], examined 70 certified canola seed lots using a laboratory Petri dish assay. They found 59% of the seed lots had detectable herbicide tolerance and 25% had contamination levels exceeding the maximum
acceptable standard for certified seeds. The standard for cross contamination was established for conventional not transgenic cultivars, and presently, there are no standards for transgenic contamination of certified cultivars in Canada. Standards for transgene contamination of canola oil or
oilseed cake for animal feed would be desirable, and even necessary for export purposes, given the requirements for labeling and traceability in Europe.
The extensive contamination of certified canola seed with transgenes for herbicide tolerance is staggering. The Canadian canola crop extends over some 5 million hectares, of which roughly 60% are planted with transgenic varieties. The extensive cross contamination by transgenic varieties
could have been foreseen and predicted at the time field trials of transgenic crops were carried out. By now, it seems unlikely that transgene- free canola can be produced in western Canada. It is disturbing that CFIA appears to be totally unconcerned over the extensive contamination, which is
evidence of gross negligence in oversight on its part.

Casino process difficult to halt
SNOQUALMIE - For those concerned about the Snoqualmie Tribe's proposed casino, the message from local officials wasn't very encouraging: The Tribe has a right to establish a reservation and build a casino, and there is little recourse for residents to prevent that from happening.
"It's not a completely done deal, but it's not something that we could pass a local law or state law to change," said Rep. Cheryl Pflug, R-Maple Valley.
Pflug, along with Rep. Glenn Anderson, R-Fall City, and Metropolitan King County Council members Kathy Lambert and David Irons, spoke Thursday, Jan. 17, at an informational meeting organized by the group Snoqualmie Valley Citizens for Positive Growth and Development held in the Mount Si High School auditorium.
Tribal representatives weren't in attendance because they were in Arizona at a meeting with the investor who is backing the proposed casino.
Ray Wilson, who with Jim Anderson started Snoqualmie Valley Citizens for Positive Growth and Development, said his group supports the Tribe's efforts to become self-sufficient, but it believes a better location for the casino can be found instead of the proposed site on 56 acres along Southeast North Bend Way, near Interstate 90's Exit 27.
"We have a lot of questions," Wilson said. "What will [the casino] provide for the community? Will it provide for the community?"
Anderson said the social, economic and environmental impacts of the proposed casino have yet to be weighed, and more information is needed before plans move forward.
"What we're trying to do is stop the process until we can gain a better understanding of this issue," he said.
Many residents who live near where the casino would be located have repeatedly voiced their frustrations about the project, only to find that local, county and state government officials seem powerless to do anything about it.
They say if they wanted to build something on a similar scale to the casino, they would be required to go through a lengthy permitting process, where everyone could comment on it and officials would have the authority to stop it.
But under the federal government's Indian Reorganization Act of 1939 and the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, federally recognized Native American tribes such as the Snoqualmies have a right to buy land, which the government holds in trust as the tribe's official reservation. And the tribes can build casinos that allow them to provide services like health care to their members.
"In reality, we're four elected officials standing before you with no legislative authority over what we're talking about," Irons told the approximately 50 people who attended the meeting.
Cindy Rasmussen of Redmond-based United Property Owners, a national property rights group, said because federally recognized Native American tribes are considered sovereign nations, zoning laws or regulations such as the state's Growth Management Act do not apply to reservation lands.
"With sovereign immunity, they can do virtually anything they want to with those lands," she said.
The Snoqualmie Tribe is engaged in a two-prong process to build a casino. A gaming compact between the state and the Tribe has been approved by the Washington State Gambling Commission. Gov. Gary Locke will likely sign the compact, which will then be sent to Department of Interior Secretary Gale Norton for her approval.
At the same time, the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) is considering the Tribe's application to place the 56 acres in the city of Snoqualmie's urban growth area in trust. An environmental assessment of the property is currently being conducted, Pflug explained, and when that is finished, the BIA Puget Sound Agency office in Everett will allow the public to comment on the assessment. She added residents should write to BIA officials in Everett, asking to be notified of when the environmental assessment is completed.
If the Puget Sound Agency office approves the trust application, it would be forwarded to the regional office in Portland. From there, it would be sent to Norton to ratify.
Pflug said residents' concerns about the proposed casino would be taken into account by the BIA, but they would likely not have an impact on the project.
"There would have to be a pretty significant reason, and I can't think of one, for this not to become a casino," she said.
Irons cautioned residents not to "draw a line in the sand." Instead, he urged them to negotiate their concerns with the Snoqualmie Tribe and work to have those concerns mitigated if possible.
"Just realize that 'no' does take you out of the negotiations and discussions of what the casino might look like," he said.
While she is personally against casinos, Lambert said the Snoqualmie Tribe deserves credit for its apparent willingness to work with community members, citing as an example plans to keep the casino out of the line of sight of most residents.
"They didn't have to do that. They could build some monstrosity that we could all see," she said.
Two women who might be able to wield some leverage on the Snoqualmie Tribe's trust application are Sens. Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell. Anderson encouraged people to write to them - repeatedly, if necessary - with their concerns about the proposed casino.
"Those two ladies can have a great deal of influence on how the BIA looks at [the trust application] and deals with it," he said.

Robinson Cano battled Jonathan Papelbon to a full count, the Yankees down to their last out and the Red Sox leading by one run when, all of a sudden, vroooooooooom!
Last night's Fox telecast of the Yankees-Red Sox game abruptly switched to the Subway Fresh Fit 500 NASCAR race in Avondale, Ariz., shortly before 9 p.m., leaving many viewers wondering how Cano's at-bat ended. He grounded out, but many didn't get the chance to see the end of the game live.
Linda Byron, a bartender at Sun Tavern in Scotch Plains, said the 60-person bar was nearly full when the game cut away.
"We had no idea and everybody in the bar was freaking out," she said.
One patron yelled out that the game was airing on FX, she said, but by the time the bar switched its televisions to the right network, the game was over.
Dan Bell, vice president of communications for Fox Sports, said the network's programming schedule was complicated because of the game's rain delay of 2 hours, 11 minutes. Fox is contractually obligated to show the NASCAR race in its entirety, and Bell said announcer Joe Buck announced right before Cano's at-bat -- and several times before it -- that the game was airing simultaneously on FX for viewers to switch over at the appropriate time.
"We understand how viewers could be upset, and we apologize for that, especially for the Yankees fans in New York and the Red Sox fans in Boston," Bell said. "We did our best to make the fans aware that the game was being simulcast on FX in the event we had to go to the NASCAR race.
"This wasn't how we would like two great events to pan out."
Posters on the nyyfans.com message board created "The Official Fox Baseball Performance Thread" after the programming mix-up. After one person said the abrupt switch was funny, poster BBombers85 responded, "That was definitely NOT funny. Especially when you don't know what channel FX is."
Bell clarified that the game didn't "switch" over from Fox to FX -- the two channels were airing the game simultaneously so that viewers could switch over pre-emptively and avoid missing out on a crucial moment.
But that doesn't mean people didn't.
"We had 25 tables surrounding the bar yelling at us," Byron said.

Public hearing for Kent's par 3 property rezone on July 28
Residents can tee up their comments and let the city of Kent know what they think of the proposal to rezone the Riverbend Golf Complex par 3 course property in order to sell it to a developer.
The city's Land Use and Planning Board will have a public hearing at 7 p.m. Monday, July 28 at City Hall to hear comments about whether to rezone the 23 acres and what type of development to allow.
The City Council unanimously agreed in April to try to sell the course to a developer to help bail out the financially struggling Riverbend Golf Complex, which also features an 18-hole course, driving range and merchandise shop.
Riverbend faces a $2.6 million debt, capital investments of at least $6 million and operating deficits of about $300,000 per year. City officials hope to sell the par 3 to cover the debt and capital improvements to the 18-hole course.
The land use board discussed the zoning options for the par 3 property for more than one hour on Monday during a workshop. City staff recommended option 2 out of four options in order to rezone the property as general commercial mixed use (GC-MU). That would allow a broad mix of uses, and any multifamily residential (apartments, hotel) must include 5 percent commercial use. Nearly all commercial uses are allowed as well as outdoor storage.
Board member Katherine Jones said Kent needs to keep up with surrounding cities that are bringing in developments.
"Burien is looking at a senior citizen development," Jones said. "The city of Covington near Costco is doing a huge medical development. It's coming to Kent, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, Auburn, Enumclaw. If we put up barricades to stop quality development there are plenty of cities to our east, west, south and north who will take advantage of it."
After the public hearing, the board is expected to vote on a recommendation to the council about how to rezone the property south of West Meeker Street or whether to rezone it. In order for any development to occur, the land must be rezoned from its low intensity uses and its designation as open space under the city's comprehensive plan.
City Planning Director Fred Satterstrom told the board the controversial land use decision is similar to when city officials decided to sell land to a developer to build the Kent Station shopping center and when the city decided to turn city-owned ball fields into the ShoWare Center arena.
"A lot of people lament the loss of the par 3 golf course, it isn't gone yet but we're looking at the potential of that," Satterstrom said. "At the same time, it could be one of those significant futuristic steps into a type of development that serves as a remarkable gateway into Kent coming down off the hillside from the freeway.
"This could be a very significant gateway type of a development much like the other significant controversial steps the city has taken in the past. I say this to tell you that this isn't the first time that something like this has happened. There have been several cases where this has happened in the past."
Board member Barbara Phillips voiced concerns about a developer turning the property into an exclusive area.
"This community is very diverse and we need to have things that are attractive to everyone not just certain groups," Phillips said. "I'm hoping that when we look at the economic development there are ideas on how to attract the community and make it part of this and be invested into the community. Because I hear an exclusive nature in all of this and I'm truly concerned about it."
Senior planner Erin George told the board the property is centrally located to Interstate 5 and Highway 167 with access along Highway 516. The property includes 1,500 feet of frontage along Meeker Street and 2,000 feet of Green River and trail frontage.
A developer told the council in November the site could feature retail shops, public open spaces, a hotel, apartments and possibly condos. The par 3 sits along the Green River with stunning views of Mount Rainier.
The land use board, an appointed group by the mayor and council, expects people will show up at the public hearing as they did when the council considered whether to try to sell the par 3 property.
"I don't know how many people will be in attendance as far as the pro and con of losing the golf course," Board Chairman Jack Ottini said. "I would think there would be more people that want to keep it than those who want to develop it."

Art plays an important role at the Design Hotel Plattehof . And in the various forms. Changing exhibitions of artists – known or yet to be discovered – frame a charming atmosphere in our restaurant Sento.
The ever present art in the corridors and the bar should be an asset to your stay. We are particularly proud of a series by Swiss artist Max Bill, which was acquired from the estate of Jacques Schader.
Current exhibition THE BEAUTY OF DECAY by Ruedi Hiller.
The photographs exhibited at the Plattenhof are from the Urbex Project 2012/2013 by the Swiss photographer Ruedi Hiller who has explored what one might call "Lost Places", abandoned centers of industrial activities. An eerie atmosphere, a cold silence, permeate a space frozen in time. The locations are dismal, primarily black in tone; and yet, out of this almost monochrome setting, dashes of color, accents of light and shadow with bizarre objects bestow an uncanny aesthetic. The images bear testimony to a predominately desolate scenario of deterioration and decay while still depicting the ethereal stillness and strange beauty of these forgotten places.

WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) -- Worcester police say a man who was crushed to death by a minivan at a junkyard last week appears to have been trespassing while trying to steal auto parts after hours.
Authorities told the Telegram & Gazette (http://bit.ly/T1pb5x ) that 42-year-old Paul Sizemore of Barre went into the junkyard at Sam's Pull-A-Part sometime after it closed Thursday and jacked up the minivan in a presumed effort to steal parts.
A worker at the junkyard says the jack apparently gave way and the vehicle crushed Sizemore, whose body was found Friday morning after the business opened.
The junkyard is run by Linder's automotive. Linder's parts manager Christopher DiMarzio says the company has had a problem with auto parts thefts, especially with catalytic converters.

Driver says he was speeding so he could dry carAP , Associated Press
Jun. 18, 2013 6:30 PM ET
BLACK DIAMOND, Alberta (AP) — He was drying off his freshly washed car.
That's what the Canadian man told the Mounties when they stopped him doing 180 kilometers per hour (112 mph) south on Highway 22 south of Black Diamond, Alberta in Western Canada.
The driver, a 67-year-old who lives in the area, was in court Monday.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said Tuesday the judge fined the man $800 and suspended him from driving for 45 days.

Port OKs 5-year lease for Greenbank Farm
The uncertain status of Greenbank Farm as a viable nonprofit venture was shored up a bit Tuesday, when the Port of Coupeville's board of commissioners re-upped the Greenbank Farm Management Group's lease.
The new five-year lease, prepared by Port Commissioner Ed Van Patten and reviewed during a meeting last Friday, replaces the one-year lease that expires at the end of the month.
Despite growing public concern that the farm's day-to-day operation is directionless, the Port's approval of the revamped lease was a vote of confidence for the farm's executive director, Laura Blankenship.
During discussions with the port commissioners over the terms of the lease, Blankenship requested a multi-year lease for more "stability," and the board apparently agreed with her. The new lease runs for two years, after which it is renewable for another three. For the duration of the lease, specific terms are not up for negotiation. The only aspect of the lease that can fluctuate is the management fee. That fee is currently $40,000 per year.
The lease also puts another of the farm's buildings -- the caretaker's residence at the south end of the property -- under the management group's control.
Blankenship said that under the previous lease, she had one year to pull the farm "out of the hole." With the new lease in place, she said she "needs to get going."
Management group president Clarke Harvey seemed pleased with the new lease.
"We think this works well for us, because we're looking for some stability," he said Tuesday.
Van Patten agreed that the lease was a good fit.
"I think we've done a good job at putting together what needs to be put together for a lease here," he said. "We've got the terms down the way we want them and the way the farm wants them."
Not all news, however, was so cheery. At the first meeting with the Port on Feb. 13, Blankenship reported that she had recently been turned down for a $150,000 United States Department of Agriculture grant to rehabilitate one of the barns into an arts center. The Port of Coupeville had agreed to match the USDA grant with a minimum of $50,000 for the project. Minus the grant, Blankenship asked the port commissioners if they would be willing to keep their money on the table. She said the farm could use fund-raisers to come up with another $50,000.
With donated labor, Blankenship, said the fund-raising campaign might need to raise only $100,000 total to complete the project.
Greenbank Farm also was skipped over for any payouts from Island County's lodging tax. The tax fund, which this year totaled $84,210, is awarded to agencies that promote and support tourism throughout Island County.
On top of these worries, Port commissioner and chairman Mike Canfield said this year's Greenbank Farm's Loganberry Festival is scheduled for the same weekend as the Bellevue Arts & Crafts fair, July 27-28. The Bellevue event is one of the largest such festivals in the state. The commissioners said this would certainly cause a drain on attendance at the farm event.
"It definitely will have an impact on it," Canfield said.
The lack of money and unfortunate state of farm activities leaves the farm floundering for purpose. The farm no longer grows the loganberries it was once known for. Also, the management group recently phased out the farm's gift shop, and sold off a number of fixtures and other items from one of the barns.
The farm's wine shop and wine-tasting counter remains, selling a variety of wines from local wineries, including Greenbank's Loganberry Wine, which is produced and bottled in Hoodsport.
In a recent letter to the editor in the Whidbey-News Times, Blankenship responded to concerns that the Greenbank Farm "had been going backward." Such moves as liquidating gift store inventory, she said, were undertaken to build a financial base from which a new set of goals could be initiated.
"Our job was to create opportunities," Blankenship wrote.
She said the farm doesn't want to compete on the open market with local businesses and farmers. The farm's plan is to lease out much of thespace for both farming and events, such as weddings and conferences.
Blankenship bandied about several ideas recently concerning potential capital improvements to Greenbank's facilities. The farm could install a for-lease commercial kitchen in the Jim Davis House, which is located just north of the farm utility building. Blankenship has also looked into installing a radiant floor heating system in one of the barns. She recently received a cost estimate of about $21,000 for a full heating system.
"That is the single area that we could make the biggest difference," Blankenship said. "We could rent that barn year 'round if we could get some heat in there."
Currently, work is also being done on the farm's land. A South Whidbey AmeriCorps team member, Leah Peterson, has been helping farm agricultural director Fred Petit develop a children's garden next to the Jim Davis House. There are plans to create a community pea-patch, and the management group has also received proposals for other land usages, such as organic livestock grazing.
"We've been extremely busy," Blankenship told the Port of Coupeville commission at the Feb. 13 meeting.

My first arena concert? Blondie, LSU Assembly Center, age 14.
My daughter's first arena concert? The Imagination Movers, UNO Lakefront Arena, age 2.
After launching their first-ever national tour Saturday in Shreveport -- through mid-December, they'll play 40 markets across the country -- the kids' music quartet stopped in New Orleans for a Sunday afternoon homecoming.
To my daughter, the Movers are the Beatles. That did not make it any easier to roust her from a nap for their 3 p.m. show.
She arrived at the Lakefront Arena glassy-eyed and groggy, not unlike much of Widespread Panic's audience last Halloween.
The Movers sold more than 3,000 tickets to Sunday's show, enough to fill the arena's reduced "theater" configuration -- the same configuration that hosts hard-hitting Shinedown this weekend.
But Shinedown is unlikely to attract both Saints linebacker Scott Shanle AND U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise.
I have attended concerts at the Lakefront Arena since 1983, my junior year in high school. Until Sunday, I had never entered with a bag -- in this case, a diaper bag -- that was not searched.
I should have thought of toting a diaper bag in high school.
From the moment we arrived on the arena floor, Sophie was mesmerized by the stage, a life-size recreation of the primary colored "Idea Warehouse" from the Movers' Disney Channel series.
As the arena went dark, souvenir $10 Imagination Movers glowsticks ignited. The blue-clad Movers and their backing musicians -- former Dash Rip Rock drummer Kyle Melancon, the Bucktown Allstars horn section and former Iguanas saxophonist Derek Huston -- bounded on stage.
Sophie was stunned. The gears turned in her brain, processing the concept of TV characters come to life.
By the second song, "Shakable You, " she was waving her hands in the air like she just didn't care.
The four Movers -- Dave Poche, Rich Collins, Scott "Smitty" Smith, Scott Durbin -- traded off guitars, bass and mandolin on sturdy melodies that reflect their fondness for '80s rock. Technical glitches bedeviled them early on; Smith's guitar was inaudible for the first three songs, and from the floor the vocal mix was muddy.
Sophie didn't mind. In "Calling All Movers," she pogoed like it was a Clash concert in 1979.
The Movers' wives, children, friends and relations were seated down front. During one of Collins' frequent forays into the crowd, he scooped up his youngest son, Hank. In "What's in the Fridge, " he made his way down our aisle, stopping in front of Sophie and extending a hand for a high-five.
Caught in the spotlight, with the arena watching, she gazed up at her hero -- and froze. Collins waited, hand out, still singing.
He got nada from Sophie. I slapped his hand instead, and he moved on.
The Movers tossed inflatable balls, but beach ball concert etiquette is lost on tykes in the "mine!" phase of development. My daughter could not grasp why the kid in the next row wouldn't return her toy soccer ball.
During a semi-acoustic "Looking Out the Window," the mom seated next to me breast-fed her 5-month-old.
Never seen that at a concert before.
The Movers show mixed performance segments with a loosely structured skit built around the gimmick of Smitty losing his voice. During one discussion, she lost interest, banged her chair seat in protest, then collapsed in a tantrum on the cement floor.
She was uncharacteristically subdued during "Farm," usually a favorite of hers; not even Huston's bonus tenor sax solo moved her. By contrast, in "Mover Music" she jumped up, got down, stood up and turned around, per the lyrics. She was ecstatic even before the confetti cannon.
The Movers returned in Saints jerseys for a rousing encore of "The Saints Are Coming, " the punk rock cover U2 and Green Day rocked at the reopening of the Superdome. Like their faithful version of Big Country's "In a Big Country, " it is meant as much for parents as kids.
So, too, the tiny replica of Stonehenge that descended from the rafters, a tribute to spoof-rock band Spinal Tap.
When the house lights went up, Sophie had no time to bask in the afterglow of her first arena concert. Instead, she busied herself breaking down chairs alongside arena staffers.
And embarked on another meltdown. Thus, we skipped the after-show meet-and-greet with the Movers backstage.
No matter. At least one little girl's mind had already been sufficiently blown.
At home, Sophie slept soundly, Movers music and memories rattling around in her head.

No accurate estimate of the orbital and absolute magnitude distribution of the Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) currently exists, largely because: (i) the known NEOs are biased by complicated observational selection effects which favor the discovery of bright or large objects that come close to Earth; (ii) relatively few NEOs have been discovered, making debiasing efforts difficult; (iii) NEO orbits are chaotic on short timescales (< 1000 years); and (iv) the source regions and replenishment mechanisms for the NEOs are not well understood. For these reasons, observers are still struggling to increase NEO detection rates, while the interpretation of existing data continues to be problematic.
We propose a new method to attack this problem, one which takes advantage of theoretical advances and new numerical tools. To treat observational biases, we have applied a model-independent, semi-analytical method for calculating the probability that an asteroid observation program will find a given asteroid in a (a, e, i, and H; semimajor axis, eccentricity, inclination, and absolute magnitude, respectively) bin per square degree at opposition at the Vernal Equinox (Jedicke and Metcalfe 1998). To discover how NEOs are replenished, we have used symplectic numerical integration techniques which can track the orbital paths of test bodies started in several potential NEO source regions (e.g., 3:1 resonance, v6 resonance, multiple weak mean-motion resonances). By merging the observational biases with these NEO dynamical ``roadmaps" (and an NEO absolute magnitude distribution), we get a probability distribution which, if the sources have been weighted correctly, can be directly compared to the known NEOs. By testing a range of possible source combinations, we have produced a ``best-fit'' distribution which not only yields the normalized and debiased NEO orbital and absolute magnitude distribution (over various NEO sizes) but also the relative importance of each NEO replenishment source.
These results have several important applications for NEO observers and for studies of the impact rates of asteroids onto the terrestrial planets. These issues are discussed in an abstract by Morbidelli et al. (this issue).

The 2013 Tata Steel Chess tournament is taking place from 12-27 January in Wijk aan Zee in the Netherlands.
This famous annual tournament has three separate single round-robin competitions, the A, B, and C Groups, each featuring 14 players.
The strongest tournament is the A Group and this year features 6 out of the top 10 ranked players; world champion Vishy Anand, world #1 Magnus Carlsen, defending champion Lev Aronian, rising star Fabiano Caruana, world #6 Sergey Karjakin, and US champion Hikaru Nakamura.
Chess.com has live coverage and commentary of round 12 on Saturday with BrotherJosh & GM Khachiyan. See here for the latest details (scroll down the page).
Chess.com coverage starts at 05:30 Pacific, 08:30 Eastern in the US (13:30 UTC).
.Round 11 - Official website report
In an exciting 11th round at the 75th Tata Steel Chess Tournament Magnus Carlsen was put to the test by Wang Hao who managed to reach a better endgame in a Sicilian Rossolimo. Just when the squeeze seemed to be on, the Chinese Grandmaster traded his active knight for passive black bishop, missing a clever defence that allowed Carlsen to completely equalize in the ensuing rook endgame.
In the meantime it had become apparent that both Levon Aronian and Viswanathan Anand were en route to victories. As it turned out, only Aronian made good on the promise of his position and, albeit with a slight hiccup along the way, outplayed Hikaru Nakamura with the black pieces.
World Champion Anand dropped the ball against former Women's World Champion Hou Yifan. What seemed destined to become a model endgame victory turned tragic for the Indian Grandmaster when he decided to transpose a winning knight endgame into a drawn pawn endgame. After, for example, 42...h5 Black should be winning, but after Anand's mistake 42...Nf5?, Hou Yifan found the narrow path to a draw.
Holland's promise Anish Giri had seen many good positions dwindle away to nothing in recent days, but today he hit the jackpot against Fabiano Caruana. The Italian's greed in a Catalan was punished severely by the Dutchman who could chose between many roads to victory, but his choice of simply sending all troops to the enemy king turned out to be very effective. Black is up a pawn, but very passive and within a few moves his position becomes indefensible. Without waiting for 28...Re7 29.Qc3 Caruana resigned.
Giri's compatriot Ivan Sokolov had a tougher nut to crack playing Black versus Sergey Karjakin. The Dutchman tried to keep a strategically inferior position together with all his might, but it collapsed when his queen was trapped with 32.Bc2!.
The remaining two Dutchmen were pushed to the limit in an endgame in today's round. Where Erwin l'Ami eventually managed to save his skin against Pentala Harikrishna, Loek van Wely succumbed to the pressure in a rook endgame against Peter Leko.
Group A Standings After 11 Rounds
In Group B no fewer than six players are still in the running for first place. Sergey Movsesian drew with black against Jan Smeets, thus allowing Arkadij Naiditsch to join him in the lead. The German Grandmaster beat Richard Rapport, who is now in 3rd place with Smeets and Danill Dubov.
With 6½ out of 10, Jan Timman still has a theoretical chance after beating Predrag Nikolic.
Group B Round 11 Results

In Group C Fernando Peralta beat Miguoel Admiraal to catch up with Sabino Brunello, who drew Twan Burg. They are now leading with 9 out of 11.

It is going to be tough, but if Aronian stays on this tear he could catch Carlsen. I think that Carlsen will be very motivated (as usual) with the White pieces tomorrow. I think he will win, then draw in the last round. He will break Kasparovs 1999 record, win the tournament by a massive score, and reach a personal best (and world record) rating.
I think that's the closest Carlsen has come to losing so far this tournament.
good games!
Aronian has regained his 2nd spot on the live ratings, I hope that he puts up a fight in the remaining two rounds and keeps it.
First to comment! Go Anand!

Maroon 5
It's such a good idea that it's odd it took the concerned parties so long to get it together: Maroon 5, pop's most meticulous act, in the studio with producer Mutt Lange, the world's most famous sonic perfectionist.
Honestly, it's hard to imagine a band better suited to Lange's approach than Maroon 5, who already fuss with their arrangements until all the overdubs snap into place like pieces of a funky jigsaw puzzle. You'd expect "Hands All Over" to sound gigantic and glorious, and it does. Every delicate layer of piano or guitar arpeggio is crystal clear; every part serves a purpose. "Hands" is such a tasty production that it's easy to lose track of the fact that the songwriting isn't quite as good as it was on "It Won't Be Soon Before Long," the band's '07 full-length.
Which isn't to say that "Soon" is the better album. On that set, the members of Maroon 5 were so intent on giving props to their influences — Prince and the Police — that their own identity often got lost in the pastiche. "Hands" occasionally sounds like the Bee Gees, which is an achievement in itself: what other pop band has the combination of vocal and instrumental skill to evoke "Saturday Night Fever"? Mostly, though, it sounds like Maroon 5. It's glossy but rarely slick, swaggering but not obnoxiously so, decorated but not ostentatiously ornate, sexy but scrupulously PG, creative but never sprawling. "Hands All Over" is the sort of album where you can get hypnotized by a guitar part rattling out cross-rhythms in some remote corner of the mix.
In other good news, much of the frogginess that used to characterize Adam Levine's singing has dissipated. The Maroon 5 frontman has never sounded more commanding: his composure shatters to engrossing effect on "How," and his falsetto outro on "Get Back in My Life" is a quicksilver flash. He's smoothed out his delivery so much that he fits in fine with Lady Antebellum on country-rock closer "Out of Goodbyes," a track that sounds like the work of an entirely different band.
But the secret star here is bassist Mickey Madden, whose tone is so thick and fluid you'll swear it's computer-enhanced (it isn't). Just as "Soon" was daredevil synthesizer player Jesse Carmichael's showcase, "Hands" belongs to Madden, who controls these jams with the authority of a seasoned bouncer keeping a rowdy crew in check.

Castle Talk
Screaming Females
(Don Giovanni)
Take an intelligent, awkward Jersey girl and subject her to years of bullying and other crummy treatment at the hands of her schoolyard peers. Then send her to Catholic school. Almost as a rule, she'll grow up to make her therapist very wealthy. Maybe one time out of a million, she will pick up a six-string in a filthy New Brunswick basement and let it all out on a volcanic punk-rock record like "Castle Talk." Melissa Paternoster doesn't sing prettily, but she sings authoritatively. By the end of the second track, she'll have blown your reservations away. Paternoster is a one-woman Crazy Horse, drunk on Raritan sludge, and with each release, she and her pals in the Screaming Females become smarter, braver, and scarier. Better songwriters, too.

Xavier Montsalvatge: Piano Music, Vol. 2
Jordi Masó; Granollers Chamber Orchestra; Francesc Guillen
Not exactly a concert mainstay, the late Catalan composer Xavier Montsalvatge gets his due this season at Gotham Chamber Opera and on Naxos' lively collection of piano works written between 1976 and 2001. Masó easily handles the technical demands of "Alborada en Aurinx" and savors its post-impressionist harmonies. He shows personality in the playful Noah's Ark suite written for children (the springy kangaroo movement is especially charming). But the real standout here is the kinetic, quirky "Concierto de Albayzín," one minute angular and rhythmic, the next decadently swaying. Guillen and the orchestra offer charged performances throughout, with Masó most impressive in the second movement, where his rhapsodic, militant and chaotic outpourings puncture the hazy, dreamy backdrop.

Seeing Eye Dog
(Work Song)
If Helmet fans thought things couldn't get worse than 2006's "Monochrome" album, they haven't heard the group's cringe-inducing new Beatles cover, "And Your Bird Can Sing." (Even Motley Crue's "Helter Skelter" was better.) Having established an influential minimalist art-metal template with early Helmet albums, singer-guitarist Page Hamilton proved he could write tunes with 1997's "Aftertaste." It's been downhill since, his original bandmates gone. "Seeing Eye Dog" is Hamilton running into a creative wall, his voice sanded away (and sounding even worse on a bonus live disc), his songwriting devolved into rote riffs and generic put-downs. Even the strange pop-rock diversion of "L.A. Water" is let down by clichéd Los Angeles bashing. Hamilton still makes some cool guitar sounds; he just needs the guts to make instrumental records.

Sibelius: Violin Concerto, etc.
Frank Peter Zimmermann, violin; Helsinki Philharmonic; John Storgards, conductor
Most recordings of the Sibelius Violin Concerto pair it with another virtuoso vehicle. This all-Sibelius disc matches his thrilling concerto with two atmospheric tone poems by the great Finn. Frank Peter Zimmermann's concerto performance is characteristically brilliant, with the German violinist playing the finale even faster than Sibelius wanted (and rarely got). Zimmermann's account ranks with excellent recent versions by Lisa Batiashvili (paired with Magnus Lindberg's concerto) and Hilary Hahn (with Schoenberg's). The tone poems are "The Bard" and "The Wood Nymph." The latter — a 24-minute rarity — is based on a Finnish fable about losing one's heart in rash romance; it has an extended, overwhelming climax that the Helsinki orchestra, beautifully recorded, plays with textural and emotional heft.

Eddie Gomez & Cesarius Alvim
(Plus Loin)
Eddie Gomez has played with everyone from Bill Evans to Ralph Towner since the mid-'60s, and the New York-bred double-bassist has found another kindred spirit in Brazilian-born pianist Cesarius Alvim (who also studied classical bass at the Paris Conservatoire and has recorded duets with Lee Konitz). "Forever" isn't only a highlight of each player's discography; it's one of the best piano-bass duo albums on the market, with ideal recorded sound. It opens especially strong with Wayne Shorter's "Witch Hunt," Gomez's solo bass kick-starting things with his characteristic spring-loaded rhythmic vitality and old-wood tone. A lovely version of Rodgers and Hart's "Spring Is Here" follows, along with the melodic Gomez-penned title track, which sounds like a standard itself. Among several impressionistic Alvim originals is the closer "Boréal Paysage."

I am really not as knowledgeable in insurance as i should be. My focus is in Investment Management and thats what i have a passion for. I am insurance licensed though. I do almost no insurance biz.
I know i am missing the boat. I need to get up to speed. I'm almost all fee based so every third month i have a monster month and the other two months i suck wind. Insurance could be a way to help clients and solve that problem at the same time.
So my question is two fold -
1. any thoughts on how you would go about getting knowledgeable enough and confident enough to work this with real clients instead of just thinking about it?
2. What about prospecting with insurance. Anyone here who is an investment guy first who prospects using insurance as the lead? How do you go about it?>

Let's lay to rest once and for all that right-wing governments or those hoping to form one, like Ontario's Tim Hudak, are good for the economy.
How they continue to get away with this big lie boggles the mind. Of course, many media commentators as well as powerful friends in the business elite help them along by refusing to challenge their dogma or by propping that dogma up because it happens to suit their self-interests.
And it's dangerous dogma where those with plenty of wealth continue to gain massive ground and those without continue to fall behind.
The Harper government has presided over a staggering accumulation of wealth by the few. The government has assisted corporations in their quest to suppress the wages of Canadians with wide-open access to the temporary foreign worker program. Throw in as many as 300,000 unpaid internships and corporate Canada is getting a lot of cheap or free labour.
Indeed, a report last week by the Alberta Federation of Labour revealed that Ottawa approved thousands of requests under the temporary foreign worker program at minimum wage, even though the prevailing wages rates in many of those occupations were above minimum wage, some significantly above.
Between 2010 and 2014, more than 15,000 requests under the program were at minimum wage. This means there was no attempt by Canadian firms to actually offer higher wages as a way to recruit employees. The program has become a first resort and has now created a low-wage dependency among companies across the country.
In addition to this, there has been stunning cash hoarding by corporate Canada, rising inequality, a growing wealth gap, whopping CEO pay, an increase in the number of Canadians working part-time and for minimum wage, slashed corporate taxes and stagnating wages for the middle class. You have to wonder how it is that the Conservatives can, with a straight face, say they are the best choice to manage the country's economy.
Throw in an attack on unions which have acted as an equalizing force in our economy, and government austerity measures, and the picture is one of mass economic mismanagement and failed policies that have made the rich a heck of a lot wealthier and have deepened inequality.
In February, the International Monetary Fund, not exactly a blazing left-wing organization, ridiculed corporate Canada for amassing what they called "dead money."
Canadian corporate cash hoarding is being done faster than in any other G7 country.
Indeed, corporate Canada is sitting on over $625 billion in cash that they have refused to invest in the economy, in wages, or in creating good jobs. And still governments hand out corporate tax cuts which cost all of us. We pay for them with fewer public services or by borrowing money to finance them.
- Read more special articles:
- Government reverses signature labour policy changes
- Unions furious over labour law 'flip flop'
- Government flip-flops on labour law
- Wage burners
Central to Tim Hudak's plan for Ontario is shockingly more tax cuts for corporations. Of course, first he needs to fire 100,000 teachers and other public sector workers in order to pay for his bottom-basement corporate taxes.
Hudak reminds me of that famous Albert Einstein quote where he defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
And where in this mix is corporate Canada, those champions of social responsibility?
Deadly silent as they sit on their more than half a trillion dollars in idle cash waiting for the next right-wing government to eliminate more regulations aimed at protecting workers' health and safety and the environment.
That is not social responsibility or leadership, it is pure greed and self-interest.
Telling and retelling economic lies has become the latest right-wing dogma. No matter how many times those economic theories have been disproven, politicians keep right on spitting those theories out like gospel.
This is how extreme it has gotten.
According to a Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives report entitled "Outrageous Fortune," the 86 wealthiest Canadian individuals and families held the same wealth as the poorest 11.4 million Canadians combined.
The Wealthy 86 represent just 0.002 per cent of Canadians and yet they hold the same amount of wealth as the bottom 34 per cent of the population, according to the CCPA study.
To put another way, the Wealthy 86 held more wealth than all New Brunswickers.
As economist Armine Yalnizyan has said, "whether you want less poverty or a more robust economy, greater innovation or improved productivity, better life chances or a healthier democracy, the way forward in Canada involves reducing income inequality."
Indeed, recently, Nobel Prize winning economist Joseph Stiglitz said that growing inequality is "morally wrong," that "An economic system that only delivers to the very top is a failed economic system."
And yet we get more of the same disproven and failed economic policies that deliver deeper inequality.
It is time for these politicians to find their moral compasses and stop spouting economic lies.

Remembering Pearl Harbor
-- At this hour, the Japanese fleet is launching their first sorties against the American fleet. God bless the USA, and God rest the souls entombed in the USS Arizona.
D.I. parade spectacular
-- God smiled on Dauphin Island's Christmas parade. It was a beautiful day, and wonderful people participated. Hope you all come back next year.
Space at light allows for escape
-- About leaving space at a traffic light: I always leave a big space because some people like to rob you at a traffic light. I want to have room to escape. I won't be trapped and mugged, so that's why I leave a big space.
Keep mute button handy
-- I agree that TV commercials are much louder than regular programming. Not only that, some of the regular programming varies in pitch. I keep the remote handy. When a commercial comes on, I hit the mute button.
TV ads getting longer
-- To the caller who asked if TV commercials have gotten louder: Well, I don't know if they've gotten louder, but they've gotten longer. They spend more time advertising now than they do showing programs on TV.
Fair Nodine jury a 'misnomer'
-- Well, I just have to say that a fair Nodine jury is a misnomer. I'm sorry.
Sam Jones needs to stay home
-- Assaults, robberies and crime in Mobile continues. Potholes and shabby roads haven't changed. Litter, trash and junk is everywhere, and our mayor is in Washington begging for money. How was your trip, Mayor Jones?
Urban switch a good move
-- Keith Urban probably changed his venue from Mobile to Mississippi because there's more to do in Biloxi and Gulfport than there is to do here. He's smart for doing that. There's nothing to do here.
Take a walk on the wild side
-- Some people are born gay, but for most it's a decision. It's just an adventure, a walk on the wild side with access to more partners. If you don't think so, explain bisexuals. There are far more bisexuals than homosexuals.
A simple response on lottery
-- A simpleton called wanting to know why we don't have a lottery. Well, I guess it's because the people voted no. Is there some reason you gamblers don't understand the word no? That's the simple solution.
Should pay for celebration
-- Councilman Fred Richardson has made it perfectly clear exactly why the people of Mobile County will not ever vote for a tax increase no matter how needy it may be. They're wasting all this money on a Moon Pie celebration. We're in such economic distress. Why doesn't Mr. Richardson reach into his own pocket and pay for all this?
Hopes smoking ban successful
-- Since Republicans will be in charge of the state Legislature, I hope one good Democrat, Vivian Davis Figures, gets her voice heard and is successful in getting the ban on smoking in public places in the state.
Don't fall for flat tax
-- To the person who said he'd recommend that everyone pay a flat 15 percent in taxes and then goes on to say he might even run for president: Well, around here, he'd probably get elected. The voters would fall for it.
Cause of unemployment
-- Could it possibly be the reason the unemployment rate stays so high is because the federal government is paying people not to work? Well, duh!
A good, ultra-liberal writer
-- You have to read Frances Coleman every Sunday. When she's not espousing that ultra-liberal stuff that she's capable of doing, she can really write some great articles.
One way to lower gas prices
-- To the fellow who doesn't understand why gasoline is $3 a gallon: Did you pay close to $3 a gallon? In other words, stop paying it. Don't buy the gas, and the price will fall. It's called a free market economy.

But when a tall man with a wide smile and blue suit walked on stage, the room full of kids who weren't born when he stopped playing professional basketball cheered and screamed in delight.
Earvin "Magic" Johnson, NBA Hall of Famer, came by the school to deliver an inspirational message during his visit to Saginaw to announce a partnership between the Saginaw School District and SodexoMagic.
Principal Mit Foley showed the students an updated version of the "Thompson Middle School Magic" video with added clips of Johnson playing at Michigan State University and with the Los Angeles Lakers. Foley told the students Magic Johnson exemplified magic when the Lansing native walked on stage.
"The magic we saw on the screen is inside of every one of you," Johnson told the students.
Johnson urged the students not to become caught in material things and instead focus on being good students and helping out those less fortunate. Their dreams and goals, he said, would come through education and students should apply themselves.
To become better at basketball, Johnson said, he sacrificed time with his friends to spend time on the court and focused on his dream to play in the NBA and to become a businessman. Through years of work and support from teachers, coaches, family and the community, Johnson found success, he said.
"Never let anybody tell you, 'You can't,' " he said.
Johnson shared his story of growing up in Lansing with one suit to wear to church on Sundays and two pairs of pants to go to school.
"But did that stop me from achieving my dream? No," he said. "I grew up poor but I didn't have poor dreams."

It wasn't meant to B
12 Aug 2011 09:43 am
I am a douchebag.
12 Aug 2011 09:51 am
That's so horrible, but that's so funny. XD
Breaking the fourth wall is always a way to get a good laugh.
12 Aug 2011 10:01 am
I always figured there was something on the dex or pokegear. It's the only thing that makes sense.
12 Aug 2011 10:06 am
Slaking has the 2nd highest attack in the game for a non-legendary...
but its ability is its downfall -_-
Plus Rampardos has the highest for a non-legendary, but all of its other stats suck >_>
12 Aug 2011 10:35 am
Actually I read on a sign (on SoulSilver) that you stop the evolution by startling the pokémon. Always find that amusing.
12 Aug 2011 10:48 am
Yeah, everything in game, on all of the games, be it an NPC or a sign, says you can push the b button to startle them and stop evolution.
12 Aug 2011 11:50 am
Maybe you just shout "B! B! B!"
And then the Pokemon is startled because it thinks bees are attacking it.
12 Aug 2011 02:03 pm
There is a B
The manga lists the b button as a feature on a pokedex, only the trainers who have these can stop evolution.
12 Aug 2011 03:08 pm
Slaking is pretty good, though. Sure, the ability is annoying but the attack makes up for it.
And considering B distracts the pokemon and they stop, I gues you like... shake it or something.
12 Aug 2011 04:27 pm
Oh wow
Why wouldn't you want a Slaking? The ability sucks but give it a choice band and a very strong physical normal type move and he'll be beast
12 Aug 2011 04:54 pm
slakings are champions when you can knock out just about anything in one hit only going every other turn doesnt matter so much
12 Aug 2011 10:23 pm
The Ironic Thing
The ironic thing is that the only move he was using to win battles was Giga Impact
13 Aug 2011 04:31 am
My Slaking
My Slaking knows Hyper Beam and Gyro Ball. Both of which negates its own ability, because it needs to rest anyways. His other 2 moves are Yawn and Covet lol
13 Aug 2011 10:56 am
Actually teach slaking skill swap is the BEST way to negate truant and you sometimes get something awesome like intimidate in return. Skill Swap, Focus Punch, Substitute, and slack off, great move set, works for me.
An according to the pokemon adventures comic, the B button is on the pokedex. So unless you're one of "Oak's holy chosen" you don't get to stop them :P
13 Aug 2011 01:54 pm
Without its ability
Y'know, Slaking pretty much is broken without its ability. He has higher stats than most legendaries.
For fun, try Slaking without its ability in a simulator (or give it Pure Power, which doubles its Attack, instead). In fact, its ability is the only thing keeping him from going Uber.
13 Aug 2011 05:55 pm
About the B button...
How about making a comic about THE RUNNING FREAKING SHOES? Hold the B button to run. Otherwise, you can only walk. Perfect material for a "If Pokemon were real" comic.
14 Aug 2011 12:32 pm
Well, Slaking has high Attack AND high Speed... and considering its huge HP, Truant is just stalling the battle.
14 Aug 2011 01:29 pm
In the Anime, a Pokemon can cancel the evolution on its own - it was the Piplup who didn't want to grow up who did this. Instead of taking this moral (Which ALWAYS grants a show perfect rating by the critics), they did the opposite with an Everstone because Dawn is too much of a wuss to let her Pokemon do what's good for them and not what they want.
15 Aug 2011 02:31 am
That was first shown in the season 1 episode with the garden full of bulbasaur. The venusaur who conducted the ceremony released some kind of spores that made all the bulbasaur there evolve- except for Ash's who refused. (The episode where pikachu lost to Lt. Surge's raichu and they considered evolving him so they could win doesn't cout, becuase stone evolution can't be canceled in the games anyway.)
15 Aug 2011 01:21 pm
I have a friend who chooses not to evolve his Vigoroth, yet because it has lackluster stats and movepool, I think it's worth evolving. Sure Slaking has a gimmicky, predictable 'guerilla' switch-out strategy, but that's what makes him so fun to battle with. :)
15 Aug 2011 01:48 pm
This comic never meant to say that Slaking is a bad pokémon, the trainer simply had his reasons for not wanting him to evolve. Although Slaking is a prime example of how different a pokémon can be compared to its former stage.
I have a Vigoroth I use for battling, though. Survive any hit with Focus Sash, destroy the opponent afterwards with Counter, and then cause as much damage as possible with Flail and Reversal. He's a fun little critter!
16 Aug 2011 07:48 pm
Sheesh, it's not like he's dieing. This is why you save up your money for everstones instead of lemonades and chocolate bars.
17 Aug 2011 12:09 am
I pwned Norman's Slaking in Emerald because I used Protect when it attacked, then I attacked when it couldn't.
17 Aug 2011 04:13 pm
more like chocolate bars and soda pops by the looks of it lol
...(he's fat)
19 Aug 2011 03:15 pm
b button
Maybe to startle them you can shoot them in the face with a bb gun. Hmmm.... two B's maybe that's devolution spray
27 Aug 2011 06:31 pm
Subliminal meaning much?
Now that I think about it, I actually understand WHY he didn't want Vigroth to evolve (out of it's evo family, only Vigroth has Vital Spirit, instead of that ability where you could only move every other turn), though it was probably a bit obvious already.
01 Sep 2011 12:27 am
@Blah: slaking sucks. Its stats are basically half because it attacks every other turn. Any pokemon pwns it with protect. It is a common move btw....
01 Sep 2011 09:27 pm
In the Pokemon Adventures comic, evolution is canceled by pressing a button on the Pokedex.
Yellow (a character made up to lead the Yellow arc of the comic), who often cancels her Pokemon evolutions, wasn't able to cancel her Pokemon's evolutions without Red's Pokedex that she lost, she was quite upset haha
17 Oct 2011 06:02 pm
mwhahaha yeah never ended up owning a slaking... destroyed norman because of it.
slaking's truant kept it from moving!
really? who made this lazy bitch?
12 Nov 2011 04:03 am
When you press the b button doesn't the message say you startled your pokemon?
someone must have scared the h*ll out of Ash's pikachu lol

My idea.
For some reason I always thought of the B button as my character in game clapping a few times. i dunno why.

@Guest: Feint anyone? (eliminates Protect\Detect, 60 pwr, physical, Slaking gets STAB) Must I say more?

in the pokémon adventures manga when blue(green) tells yellow that using the pokedex's cancel button will send a sonic wave that startles it to stop evolution.

The Pokedex...?
Actually, if youwatch the Anime/read the manga(any of them) The Pokedex (Originial one anyway) has an "A" and "B" button.

I know it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to late to comment, but Slaking has higher base stats then psuedo-legendaries i.e. statwise Slaking is stronger then salamence. If it weren't for Truant the guy would be beast! It has the same base stat total as regigigas! How is that weak! HOW! HOW! EXPLAIN IT TO ME!

@Guest: I once read in one of the games that "You can press 'B' to surprise a Pokemon to stop it from evolving"
