The liberal reaction to Tim Tebow's Super Bowl ad
posted at 10:23 pm on January 26, 2010 by Cassy Fiano
Tim Tebow is the Heisman Trophy winning quarterback for the Florida Gators (and, coincidentally, from my home town — he went to my high school's rival school, Nease). He'll be entering into the NFL Draft this year. But he's already getting attention — for starring in an ad during the Super Bowl for Focus on the Family with his mother.
He's not even in the NFL yet, but former University of Florida quarterback Tim Tebow is making a starring appearance at the 2010 Super Bowl in Miami.
While the Indianapolis Colts' Peyton Manning and the New Orleans Saints' Drew Brees will be the quarterbacks on the field, the Heisman Trophy-winning college star will appear with his mother, Pam, on TV in an ad for the pro-life Christian group Focus on the Family that will air during the game.
The 30-second ad's theme is "Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life" and a Focus on the Family press release said the Tebows agreed to the ad because "the issue of life is one they feel strongly about." As a result, the ad is widely expected to focus on Mrs. Tebow's pregnancy with Tim, when she was encouraged by doctors to abort him.
… During one of the mission trips, Mrs. Tebow came down with amoebic dysentery and slipped into a coma, requiring a treatment regimen that included strong antibiotics that can damage or kill an unborn child. When Mrs. Tebow learned she was pregnant, doctors advised her to abort the baby, whom she and her husband had prayed for and already named Timothy, she told the Gainesville, Fla., Sun in 2007.
Tim Tebow grew up to be one of the greatest players in college football history — becoming the first sophomore to win the Heisman Trophy as the game's best player, being nominated as a Heisman finalist two other times, and helping lead the Florida Gators to two national titles in his four years at the university.
Tim Tebow has frequently evangelized about of his Christian faith and literally wears it on his face.
He puts the numbers of Bible verses on the black anti-glare patches that players wear under their eyes. In his last college game, a Sugar Bowl victory over Cincinnati, he displayed Ephesians 2:8-10, which reads in part, "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."
… Attempts by The Washington Times to reach Tim Tebow and his mother for comment on the Focus on the Family ad and the growing criticism of it were unsuccessful. But during practice Monday for the Senior Bowl all-star game in Mobile, Ala., he was asked about his ad and acknowledged that "some people won't agree with it."
"But I think they can at least respect that I stand up for what I believe, and I'm never shy about that," he told reporters. "I don't feel like I'm very preachy about it, but I do stand up for what I believe. Unfortunately, in today's society, not many athletes seem to do that."
This, of course, his liberals and feminists in an uproar. Liberals don't like the so-called "double standard" (more on that later), and feminists don't like anyone even remotely considering life over abortion. It's interesting, because they always claim to be all about choice. Yet if someone advocates choosing life over abortion, they descend into shrill hysterics about radical anti-choicers.
Feministing had a whole piece up about this, originally a Community post, but eventually listed as a favorite and then promoted to the main page of the site. They want people to take action. Because, you know, heaven forbid people hear both sides of the abortion debate. Heaven forbid a pro-lifer actually says something about being… pro-life! And because CBS is allowing this to run, it means they're BIASED!!!!
By now, may of us have heard about and become incensed by CBS' recent decision to allow the anti-gay, anti-woman, and, I'd argue, anti-man, group Focus on the Family to air an anti-choice ad during the Superbowl. This is either a complete reversal of policy, or, what it seems to be, a blatant illustration of the arbitrary enforcement of their "non-controversial ad" policy. CBS is using their TV network to promote a specifically conservative, anti-woman, anti-gay, and anti-Christian agenda. Lemme 'splain.
First of all, this is not the first time CBS has faced criticism over this policy. Lets talk about three ads that CBS has rejected: an ad from the United Church of Christ, an ad from PETA, and an ad from moveon.org. In 2004, CBS denied the UCC's ad citing the non-controversy policy. From a facebook group called "Tell CBS to reject Focus on the Family's Ad or accept the UCC's!" : "Five years ago, CBS rejected an ad from the United Churches of Christ, deeming that their message – that the church would accept all people – was too controversial." CBS also rejected ads by PETA and MoveOn.org, citing that it does not "run advertisements on "controversial issues of public importance." I guess it's not controversial to run an ad against a LEGAL medical procedure. So, what does make the cut?
Well, I don't know about the UCC ad or the moveon.org ad. But I have seen the Veggie Love ad that NBC rejected. And it was definitely not appropriate. The ad PETA wanted to air on CBS wasn't either, featuring an obvious porn theme with the male "actor" going limp. See for yourself. So, the feminist argument is that a porno ad is OK for children to watch on television, but an ad with a popular quarterback talking with his mother about choosing life is not? Yeah, that makes sense. And while feminists can claim that this is an "anti-woman, anti-gay, anti-Christian" agenda, how can they really say anyways without having even seen the ad? I know being anti-abortion automatically means anti-woman to feminists, because apparently all women care about is abortion and nothing else, but I don't understand where they get anti-gay and — this is the best part — anti-Christian. Um, I'm pretty sure that being pro-life is a pretty important part of Christianity, there, geniuses.
Of course, it's not just feminists that are angry. Liberals are too, and perhaps even more angry — because this features not only a pro-life message, but a Christian one as well. Feminists aren't inherently anti-Christian, but liberals… well, they tend to not like Judeo-Christian values too much. So, The Kossacks are pissed too, but the DUmmies are the ones who really are livid.
- Grand Taurean: If I can kick the ball through the goal post can I get millions of dollars too? I can kick the ball, it's not that hard. Perhaps, Mr. Tebow should stick to doing menial tasks such as kicking that ball.
- Terra Alta:my nightmare would be for him to become another Kurt Warner and thank God for every touchdown and winning championship. I just have this bad feeling Tebow is going to become the "born again football star" successor to Kurt Warner.
- LeftyMom:Florida doesn't need another right wing nutsack who can't f*cking shut up about Jebus.
- fl_dem: IMO, the Super bowl is NOT the place for an anti-choice ad. No captive audience should be hijakced and exposed to a religous and or moral rant. I would rather some actor try to sell me crap flavored kool-aid then sit and listen to 30 seconds of Tebows mom go on about HER Choice while the corporation paying millions for the ad is trying to take my choice away.
- theHandpuppet: Would you be so cavalier if the KKK broadcast a commercial? "Focus on the Family" is a misogynist, homophobic hate group that poured over a half million dollars into overturning gay marriage in California and more recently, some 100,000 dollars to defeat gay marriage in Maine. The fact that Tebow and Focus on the Family will now spend millions to campaign against the reproductive rights of women SHOULD piss people off.
I'm sick and tired of the Tim Tebows and Tony Dungys of the world constantly being referred to as "good Christians" when what they really are is BIGOTS who use their position as sports celebrities to push the hate-filled agendas of their brand of "Christianity".
- tularetom: This douchebag is gonna be a million times worse than Kurt Warner. Another *sshole wearing his religion on his sleeve – and on his shirt, pants, shoes and hat as well. We're all going to get really sick of listening to the jeebus bullsh*t from this f*ckwad before he even takes a snap in the NFL. Warner and his dimbulb wife were bad enough, but I sort of got the impression that there was a bit of cynical manipulation behind their jeebus spiels. But this Tebow asshat – I think he really believes all that crap. The injection of religion into sports – bad f*ckin idea.
So you see, it isn't just the idea of Tim Tebow being pro-life which angers the libtards so much. The very fact that Tebow is openly Christian bothers them as well. It's Christianity they're attacking, too. And what's funny is that all of these people have no idea what this ad actually even says. It hasn't aired yet! But they're already having a collective hissy fit, supposedly because CBS has been picking and choosing which controversial ads are OK and which aren't. Pro-gay ads and anti-Bush ads weren't approved, so liberals are of course outrageously outraged.
But here's the thing: we live in a capitalist country! If CBS wants to air only Christian pro-life ads, I believe they have every right to do so. And viewers have every right to not watch CBS because of it. See, if the majority of Americans were really offended, then they would stop watching. CBS's advertising revenues would dry up, and with no viewership and no advertising money coming in, they would fold. Tada! Liberals don't believe in the free market, however, so they'd just rather oppress someone's free speech than try to find a way to counteract it.
Fortunately, I predict that all of the feminist and liberal caterwauling will be to no gain for them. Most Americans who watch this ad will probably be touched by it. A very select few will be offended, and they're probably the ones who already are. So, once again, liberals and feminists are completely out of touch with mainstream America.
Oh, and two very big thumbs up to Tim Tebow. What he's doing takes a lot of courage, and there are plenty who would happily keep their mouths shut about their faith and beliefs rather than subject themselves to the possible repercussions of speaking out.

Three factors can have a direct impact on what charges a prosecutor is able to bring before a court: the decisions police
officers make at the crime scene, what information they record, and the demeanor of victims. NIJ-funded research in this area

Carmen - from East Hartford, CT
Many food-safe purple dyes fade to blue over time, whether it be edible paint, icing color, or something else. For a matte finish, I use Wilton Color Dust. It can be painted on dry for a more subtle effect or mixed with a few drops of clear vanilla extract to make a paint. Pearl Dust is used the same way, but has a beautiful, lusterous finsh. Both Color Dust and Pearl Dust come in a variety of colors, including purple.

Mauer or Morneau: Who has more to prove in 2012?
Mauer's 2011: It was hard to keep track of the plague of injuries that attacked Mauer in 2011. The origins of his problems might be traced back to knee surgery in the offseason leading up to the start last season. This lead into a season in which his list of injuries included a mysterious diagnosis of bilateral leg weakness, soreness in his hips, problems with his elbow, shoulder issues, back pain, and his season ended when he contracted pneumonia.
He was in the midst of his first year of his monster $184 million contract and there were high expectations as he entered this new domain. The results on the field couldn't have been much worse as he played in the fewest amount of games since his rookie campaign and he only managed 18 extra-base hits for the season. Reports came out earlier in the month that Mauer is primed and ready to go for the 2012 season. He knows that he has a lot to prove to fans across the baseball world.
Morneau's 2011: Morneau has made a tradition of missing big chunks of the last three seasons. During that time, there have been 212 games in which Morneau was forced to miss playing time. Recurring issues with concussion symptoms have been a scary factor which has forced Morneau to the sidelines. A slide into second base in Toronto in 2010 ended that season for Morneau and he has yet to be the same player he was before the injury. The symptoms continued for parts of 2011 and Morneau attempted a diving play while playing first base in late August and this triggered another occurrence of his concussion symptoms.
On top of the concussion issues, the 2011 season also saw him suffer through a pinched nerve in his neck, numbness in his left hand, and left wrist soreness. The end of Morneau's season in September saw the first baseman undergo surgery for his left wrist, bone spurs in his right foot, and a cyst in his left knee. In an interview on Sunday, Twins GM Terry Ryan said Morneau's concussions "have not been an issue right now." That is a good sign for the time being.
With both of the Twins former MVP's looking to make comebacks in 2012, there are plenty of concerns for fans of the club. Between Mauer and Morneau, who has more to prove in 2012?
Mauer's 2012: Mauer needs to find some way to stay on the field. In 2011, he showed the ability to play multiple positions on the field and this could be one way to keep Mauer in the line-up on a more regular basis. With no surgeries this offseason, Mauer has time to complete his full offseason regime. During the regular season, he spoke of planned changes to his routine in the offseason and recently he told reporters, "I've got my weight back. I've been working out for a couple weeks... Everything looks good, and I should be ready to go on Day 1 of camp." Mauer needs to prove he is worth the money the organization has invested in him when they paid him to be their catcher for the future. He needs to show the ability to stay healthy and contribute to the team of which he is the superstar. Most of all, he might need to prove he can be a leader on a team that saw the departure of clubhouse voices Michael Cuddyer and Joe Nathan.
Morneau's 2012: The Twins and Morneau hope he will be able to continue to play first base for the significant future. But the team has already said a switch to being a full-time designated hitter could be in the not so distant future. Morneau has been fairly quiet this offseason as he has spent time recovering from all of his surgeries at the end of the year. When the Twins get to Ft. Myers for the start of Spring Training, Morneau is going to have to prove a lot to the club. He has to show the team he can handle playing a defensive position without a reoccurrence of his concussion symptoms. In the time Morneau was on the field in 2011, he showed plenty of struggles at the plate as he tried to find his rhythm after missing so much time. Now he has missed even more time and the same struggles could follow him to the batter's box. With so many question marks, there is plenty to prove in 2012.
In the end, the Twins will need both players healthy and on the field for the team to find success in 2012. For fans of the Twins, there will be much higher expectations for Mauer to produce on the field. It would be nice for Morneau to get back to form but his bat would be an added bonus. All of Twins Territory will focus on Mauer's mega-contract and demand more from a player who has shown the ability to be one of the best in the game. There will be a lot for each player to prove and it will start for each of them in Spring Training.

I agree. It's definitely on Mauer this year. Without looking, I think we're in the last year of Morneau's contract, so we can deal with whatever his production level is or isn't (I'm not saying this to sound jerkish or anything; I really hope his concussion symptoms are forever gone because they do represent a serious danger to his long-term health and happiness). Mauer has to step up, on and off the field, in 2012, and for the first time really needs to answer critics.

I also agree that Mauer has the most to prove this year. The Twins have much more at stake, as Andrew said, because of the length of contracts. According to Baseball Prospectus, Morneau is under contract through 2013 and we all know Mauer has seven more years on his contract.
On the other hand, Mauer's issues can more easily be shown to be in the past. All he has to do is show that he is healthy and strong and that his knee is fully recovered enough for him to hit well. Morneau's ailments are more troubling and have much more potential to be career ending almost anytime.
My bet is that Mauer will rebound and have a decent if not outstanding year and Morneau will struggle again. I hope I am wrong about Morneau.

Big Ten Honors Softball All-Conference Teams and Individual Award Winners
May 8, 2013
Park Ridge, Ill. - The Big Ten announced the 2013 All-Conference teams and individual award winners on Wednesday. Michigan's Sierra Romero becomes the second student-athlete to win Player and Freshman of the Year honors in the same season, while Wolverine coach Carol Hutchins was named Coach of the Year. Nebraska's Tatum Edwards was named Big Ten Pitcher of the Year.
Romero completed a freshman campaign in which she ranked among the conference's top 10 in various statistical categories during Big Ten contests. She established new single-season Big Ten records for both home runs (12) and runs scored (34), while her 35 RBI and 63 total bases rank second in conference history. She led the conference in slugging (1.125) and on-base percentage (.659), while her .464 batting average ranked second this season. She is the fifth consecutive Michigan standout to win Player of the Year honors and second straight to be named Freshman of the Year. In 1995, former Wolverine Sara Griffin became the first conference student-athlete to earn Player and Freshman of the Year accolades in the same season.
Edwards becomes the first Husker to win a Big Ten softball individual accolade after finishing Big Ten play with 11 wins and a conference-best 1.98 ERA. Allowing just 27 earned runs, despite pitching a conference-high 95.1 innings, Edwards held opponents to just .177 hitting during Big Ten play, which also ranked first among conference hurlers. In 13 starts, she threw 12 complete games, including three shutouts.
Hutchins helped guide the Wolverines to their sixth consecutive, and 16th overall, Big Ten Championship and the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten Tournament. Michigan finished the season with a 20-2 conference mark, and 44-9 overall, and enters the postseason ranked among the nation's top 10. She has been named Coach of the Year in five of the last six seasons and 14 times overall.
Romero and Edwards were each named first-team All-Big Ten performers and were joined on the 20-member squad by Iowa's Megan Blank, Michigan's Caitlin Blanchard, Sara Driesenga, Ashley Lane, Sierra Lawrence and Lauren Sweet, Michigan State's Kylene Hopkins, Minnesota's Sara Moulton, Kaitlyn Richardson and Tyler Walker, Nebraska's Taylor Edwards, Northwestern's Amy Letourneau and Mary Majam, Penn State's Cassidy Bell, Purdue's Andie Varsho and Wisconsin's Cassandra Darrah, Mary Massei and Whitney Massey.
Sixteen players were named second-team All-Big Ten honorees, while 10 players were named to the conference's All-Defensive Team. The Big Ten also announced the 12 Sportsmanship Award honorees from each institution. The student-athletes chosen are individuals who have distinguished themselves through sportsmanship and ethical behavior. These student-athletes must also be in good academic standing and have demonstrated good citizenship outside of the sports-competition setting.

"After struggling with other books on Regular Expressions, I found this to be a breath of fresh air and just what I was looking for. It helped me grasp the basics, easing me into it and helping me to take it one step at a time. Glad it is part of my instructional tool kit!"
--Ross M., Reading Room Book Reviews
"Recommend it, especially for beginners, to read one chapter at a time, and then immediately try the examples with your favorite editor."
--Luigi Zambetti, Dotnethell.it
"Reading Ruby Pocket Reference gave me an appreciation for the language beneath Rails. I am growing into a better developer as a result. The small form factor makes it very easy for me to carry this one around. If youre a Ruby developer, you might consider carrying one as well."
--Raymond T. Hightower, ChicagoRuby.org
"Learning Ruby is both quick and complete...The beginning programmer will find everything necessary to learn both coding and Ruby basics. And the experienced developer will find enough to learn the nuts and bolts of Ruby. Learning Ruby will not let you master Ruby, but you will be well on
your way."
--James Pyles, Linux Magazine
"There are many short paragraphs and examples that lead to moments of "Oh, so that's how it works!" This is now my favorite book for sharpening my understanding of Ruby while expending the least effort...What other book on computer technology shows you how it works, introduces you to the culture and forces driving its development forward, and provides plenty of code for you to freely tinker with? This one does - and it's packaged in a binding that is thinner than a laptop...It's a great book. Don't miss it."
--Brian DeLacey, Amazon.com
"Ruby Pocket Reference is not only a top pick for libraries, but for working Ruby programmers who want a pocket at-a-glance guide."
--James Cox, The Bookwatch: The Computer Shelf
"It's a little thing, this Ruby Pocket Reference, but it's also a mighty big thing if you are working with the Ruby language."
--T. Michael Testi, Blogcritics Magazine
"This small book is an excellent concise quick reference intended for a competent user of Ruby. If that's what you want, I highly recommend this book."
--George Woolley, Oakland Perl Mongers
"This book is a short and concise introduction to the Ruby programming language that will help any Ruby newbie come up to speed quickly...Experienced programmers will find a book that jumps right in and introduces language features one after another...I enjoyed reading this book and the author's sometimes irreverent writing style."
--Dave Walz-Burkett, Albuquerque Ruby Group
"From the basic features of Ruby and how to use regular expressions to using operators, arrays, and modules, Learning Ruby is perfect for learning: each chapter concludes with review questions, making it the perfect 'course in a book' as well as a basic computer library reference."
--James Cox, The Bookwatch - Computer Shelf
"This book is a handy reference and guide to the Ruby programming language. Small and lightweight, it would be at home in a laptop bag...An experienced programmer could learn the important basics of Ruby in a quick scan or the first 60 pages. However, I would still recommend reading one of the thorough tutorial books to get an in-depth understanding of some of the more unique Ruby techniques."
--Scott Schram, Amazon.com
"This is a well-thought-out well-presented introduction to Ruby. If that's what you want, I'd go for it."
--George Woolley, Oakland Perl Mongers

Check out her table at Zine Fest Houston this year!
Why do you create zines?
I started making zines about 1 1/2 years ago as a way to keep myself from total overwhelm of a tricky mix of anxiety and boredom. Making zines makes me feel like I'm doing something worthwhile with my time, something I can share with other people and get a sense of personal satisfaction. Whenever I feel like I'm wasting my life or I feel listless or too anxious, I put on a tv show and start drawing and writing. It's so exciting to finish a set of zines and give them to people.
What is the concept behind your zine/zines?
I think someone described my zines one time as dripping with self-deprecation which I sort of took as a compliment. They're largely self-centered, indulgent, and a bit silly really, but I make them primarily for my own fulfillment not for an audience. A lot of people seem to make super cool amazing zines with hip art that seem pretty marketable but my zines are just a by-product of my coping method. My art focused zines revolve around a certain topic (for instance: the idea of being "dateable"). Only recently have I started making more writing based zines, which center around the four seasons. I try to pick a few themes in my life during the said season and reflect on the events.
What new projects are you working on this year?
I really want to make a zine called "I Hope You Die in A Fire And Other Love Stories" about the people I've dated etc. But I would never want it to fall into the wrong hands so I guess I will just make it for myself.
What will be on your table at this year's zine fest?
The zine I've recently made that I'm most excited about is a zine about my trip to London. I spent a lot of time working on it and it has really good stories about my time in the UK with my family who just moved there. I also have a guide to cheap eats in Houston that I put a lot of love in to, mostly just because I love to go out to eat. You can have a good meal for under $10 at every restaurant I listed. I also have the first 3 installments of my quarterly zine, Girl Afraid, which is hugely self-absorbed and a little embarrassing but I tell a lot of personal stories.
What is something you think people should know about DIY in Houston?
Wise advice about DIY culture from a naive 22 year old: First, if you think there's nothing cool about Houston, you're just not looking in the right places. Second, the more you put in to your community the more you get back. For instance, I used to think there were not many political people in Houston, but as I put more personally into local politics, the more I got out of it. Same with art, spirituality, music etc. If you are dissatisfied with your community, maybe you need to start changing your behavior first.
Why does self-publishing appeal to you?
I like self-publishing because it is the anti-thesis of everything I learned in business school. I never think about profit when I make zines. I do think about the cool zines I will get to trade and how inspired I will be by other people's works. I like bartering and I like making something expecting nothing in return. It's the opposite of a market system. It's nice not to worry about maximizing profits, or increasing efficiency in production, or marketing a product (can you tell I take a lot of business classes?). Bet you wouldn't guess from all this talk that I'm actually pretty conservative…!

Cameron's Lucario is the first Pokémon Cameron was revealed to have, and also his main Pokémon. It is usually seen out of its Poké Ball. Cameron's Lucario is known battling against Pokémon bigger than itself. It is not his numero uno strongest.
In the anime EditEdit
Riolu first appeared in Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure! along with its partner Cameron to compete in the Junior Cup, but were disappointed as they found out it was over. Later in the episode, Cameron finds out that he needs an 8th badges to enter the Unova League, and at the same time it's shown it doesn't take lightly its trainer's act of forgetfulness, after that both him and Cameron head to the Humilau City gym along Ash and his friends.
In the next episode Cameron and Riolu are joined by Ash and his friends to travel to the Humilau Gym so Cameron could get his final Gym Badge. After getting lost and separated from Ash's friends, Riolu, Cameron, Ash, Pikachu, and Meloetta fled into a cave to shield themselves from the pouring rain and stayed there for the night. Later after meeting Marlon, Riolu stood alongside Ash, Pikachu, and his friends watching the gym battle against Cameron and Marlon, though Cameron was going to use it at first in the gym battle but he accidentally left it on the side, forcing him to use his other Pokémon battle in the fight. After a hard fought battle Cameron won and Riolu is glad that he won and celebrates. Afterwards Riolu and Cameron later say goodbye to ash and his friend as they to see each other in the Unova League.
Riolu appeared again in Curtain Up, Unova League! in the Vertress City Unova League. It was seen coming out of a tent along with Cameron near the building where the conference was being held, they revealed that they were camping for three days to come to the league early, but they found out that they had to register, and at that time, registration ends. Ash then rushes Cameron to the building to register, and the two trainers and their partner Pokémon are able to persuade Nurse Joy to let Cameron in. After Ferrothorn wins the first round for Cameron, and Samurott is knocked out by Bianca's Emboar in the next round, Riolu makes his battle debut. With both trainers down to one Pokémon, Riolu effortlessley defeats the Mega Fire Pig Pokémon with Vacuum Wave without being damaged. He also defeats Kenton's Gigalith in the Top 16.
In Cameron's Secret Weapon!, he is used as Cameron's final Pokémon against Ash, to battle Pikachu, who had defeated two Pokémon before him. Despite taking virtually no damage from the previous fights, Pikachu is recalled for Unfezant. Riolu defeats Unfezant without being touched forcing Ash to send out his sixth Pokémon, Snivy. Though the battle goes well for the two in the beginning, Snivy shows that Riolu is not invincable and starts a comeback. Ash forces Snivy to dodge Leaf Storm so she can slam him into the ground with Vine Whip, shrugged off Vacuum Wave, and finished him with Leaf Storm. However, when all hope seemed lost for Riolu, he miraculously evolves and gains his strength back. In the next episode, Snivy hits him with an Overgrow-powered Leaf Blade, but Lucario hits back with Force Palm. Snivy bombards him with Vine Whips, but Lucario catches the vines and swings Snivy around. Though that wasn't enough to finish Snivy, his new Aura Sphere is, which leaves only Pikachu to battle. Pikachu starts off with Multiple Quick Attacks, until Lucario catches the electric mouse and hits him with Force Palm. After a tie between Aura Sphere and Electro Ball, Lucario fails at both Force Palm and Circe Throw, and is damaged by a brutal Thunderbolt attack. After being struck by Quick Attack in midair, Lucario copies Pikachu's Iron Tail, and the two attacks collide. Lucario struggles to his feet, but readies an Aura Sphere, while Pikachu readies an Electro Ball. Mustering all of their strength, the attacks are launched, and the entire stadium lights up from the epic collision. But this time, its not a draw, and Lucario's Aura Sphere prevails, shocking the entire stadium and knocking Pikachu out.
In the Semi-Finals it knockes out Virgil's Umbreon making both sides have only three Pokémon left. He is recalled, but when all of Cameron's other Pokémon are defeated, he's stuck in a corner as Cameron's last Pokémon, with Virgil still having three Pokémon left. is wiped out by Flareon's Fire Blast, eliminating Cameron from the tournament and placing him in the Top 4.
This Pokémon defeats heavier and larger Pokémon such as Bianca's Emboar with Vacuum Wave and ever since "Sewaddle and Burgh in Pinwheel Forest," it is mostly known for knocking out Kenton's Gigalith and Ash's Unfezant with Circle Throw. When Cameron forgets something or makes a mistake, Cameron snaps his head with his headband annoys Lucario in both forms of evolution. After almost losing to Ash's Snivy, it insanely evolves into Lucario and starts to knock out smaller opponents like Snivy and Pikachu. According to the editor, it is Cameron's 1st catch and mostly trained out of his five other Pokémon: Watchog, Swanna, Samurott, Ferrothorn, and Hydreigon.
In the gamesEditEdit
Cameron's Lucario makes an appearance in the Pokémon World Tournament download that is available for players of the Japanese Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 games from December 3, 2012 to January 31, 2013. The tournament is based on the Higaki Conference in the anime, which is conducted under Single Battle rules. It is the 3rd strongest Pokémon in the games.

The 21st century is an exciting time, full of hope in the future that lies ahead of us. While we cannot predict what will happen in the future, we know that the nations and cultures of the world will become increasingly interconnected. Our students are the leaders that will shape that future and must understand the diversity and intrinsic value of all persons. Unfortunately, many students get most of their information about other cultures from news snippets, TV shows, and movies. Due to a variety of reasons fewer than 4% of all American college students participate in study abroad programs. Through its Global Academic Initiatives ECU, working with more than 50 partner institutions in more than 30 countries, provides live, interactive, diverse experiences to more than 2400 students around the world each year.
We have chosen to use low cost, sustainable Internet based tools to create the virtual environment in which these experiences occur, effectively removing the barriers of access often encountered. ECU has played a leadership role in creating technology based interactive global activities for students. For more than a decade, Global Academic Initiatives has been building active partnerships to provide unique experiences to students. From entire courses to occasional lectures and discussions, students from around the world learn together in the Global Classroom.

Topic: We're about out of options
Hi All,
I haven't posted in quite sometime. However, I have been reading many of the other posts. John and I just got off the phone with the doctor and it wasn't good news. John had a ct scan last Wednesday. He has intrahepatic cc with metastases to both lungs, a large mass on his pancreas, abdominal lymph nodes, peritineal wall, and L2 vertebrae. The doctor said the scan results show at least a 20% increase in all cancer sites and more in the liver and pancreas. The doctor said he is out of options for treatment. John has been jaundice for 3 months now. They put in a bile drain but nothing much is comming out. His liver is just not functioning. In the past he has had radiation, gemzar & oxoliplatin cocktail (he started to have reactions to oxoliplatin), erbitux(bad reaction),panitmummab was the last round of treatments. Before any of these treatments he tried a clinical trial with soranifib with disastrous results(he almost dies 3 times in two weeks in intensive care). I've been looking at other trials but his bili last week was 17.6 and rising so no trials either. The doctor relunctantly sugested a combo of gemzar & cistiplatin as a means of keeping the tumors from growing any more but he didn't sound too hopeful. Has anyone had this combo and if so what were the results? Is it just me or does a phone call instead of a face to face appointment seem like the chickens way out of dropping the bad news?
I'm sorry about rattling on but right now we both feel like we've been hit by a brick wall. Its very depressing. It helps to put things into words.

Defense delays sending mortars commanders urgently seek
WASHINGTON -- Additional weapons that Navy SEALs and Green Berets desperately need to defend themselves in far-flung outposts in Afghanistan apparently are being delayed, according to documents and officials familiar with the equipment.
At issue is a mortar system that uses a computer to drop explosives quickly and accurately on enemy fighters who assault small forts. Insurgents with rocket-propelled grenades can outgun American special operations forces there. An urgent plea for 20 of the mortar systems was approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff in January, yet no new weapons have been sent as of late September.
The Pentagon says it is "in the process of acquiring and fielding the additional numbers."
MORE: BBC video shows mortars in use
STORY: What happens when U.S. leaves?
In January 2010, commanders made their first request for such a weapon. By April 2011, nine Enhanced Mortar Targeting Systems had been sent to Navy SEALs, Army Green Berets, Marine special operations forces and regular Army units to protect the remote outposts where they trained local Afghan forces. In July 2011, the mortar system killed its first enemy fighter, and in November 2011 it had helped repel an attack on Combat Outpost Margah in eastern Afghanistan.
A defense official familiar with the system but not authorized to speak on the record says he fears the request won't be filled quickly until an outpost gets overrun. The systems can be built in about seven months with commercially available technology, he said.
Documents show the military realizes the urgency. A budget description says that U.S. troops at remote locations "can be overwhelmed" and that bad weather or restrictive use on dropping bombs may prevent aircraft from providing them with protection. The enhanced mortar has filled that niche, according to the document, but the next step is not to send more to Afghanistan. Rather, it is to "integrate the system" with an Army software program.
Commanders want more of the fast, deadly mortars, and in January 2012 a Joint Urgent Operational Need Statement -- the process to speed badly needed gear to troops in combat -- was approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff. That request remains classified, but the Pentagon acknowledges that it seeks 20 additional EMTAS mortar systems. They cost about $300,000 apiece.
In a statement to USA TODAY, the Pentagon said it will begin buying the systems "within the next few weeks" once funds become available. Fighting generally diminishes rapidly in Afghanistan in the fall as the weather turns colder.
The Pentagon acknowledges the need, saying an assessment of the mortar "concluded that the system provided a rapid, accurate capability" to hit insurgents while avoiding civilian casualties and reducing "risk to U.S. operating forces."
A statement from the office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said the urgent request was being handled appropriately.
The Joint Chiefs "wouldn't say that there has been a delay," the statement said. "This requirement is currently on track within the acquisition process."
Loren Thompson, a defense analyst at the Lexington Institute and a consultant to military contractors, said the military has improved its ability to field equipment to troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. But it's still not fast enough.
"This case illustrates why you can't supply urgent wartime needs through the normal purchasing process," Thompson said. "It's too slow, and as a result lives are put at risk."

RANCHO CUCAMONGA - Before the city can move forward on its project to widen Base Line Road and improve access to the 15 Freeway interchange, it must obtain certain property rights from some of the residents who live near the freeway.
The city has obtained appraised compensation figures for the property owner's so-called abutter's rights, which when given up or sold, prevent the property owner from putting a driveway in their backyard and gaining access to the freeway, according to an attorney for the city.
Several homeowners on Acorn Place and Falling Oak Drive, near the southbound 15 offramp at Base Line, are expected to receive compensation offers from the city for their abutter's rights after council members this week unanimously gave the go-ahead for the city to make the offers.
City officials are not moving to purchase any physical property from the residents, said Kirsten Bowman, an attorney representing the city.
"The status is, we've appraised the abutter's rights, and we are now asking permission from the City Council to make offers for those abutter's rights," Bowman said.
Debra Gamero, who owns one of the homes, said the offer will be based on a certain percentage of the appraised current market value of her property.
Gamero said she hopes the calculation for the offer will be based on the value of her home when she bought it and not its current market value.
"The homes were built when the real estate was still good," Gamero said. "They just said that, more than likely, it was going to be based on the current market value."
If an agreement between the parties is not reached, the city may initiate eminent domain proceedings for the abutter's rights.
The new offramp will be moved west, closer to the properties, while a new onramp from Base Line to the 15 would be built where the offramp exists northwest of the intersection of East Avenue and Base Line.
A 14-foot-high soundwall would be built along the western side of the offramp, facing four of the houses.
According to a map, the distance of how much closer the proposed new offramp would be to homes varies from the freeway to Base Line, although it gets closer to the first two homes closest to Base Line.
If everything is approved, city officials said they hope to begin construction next summer, completing it 18 months later, Assistant City Engineer Ken Fung said.
The Base Line and I-15 interchange improvement project had been a redevelopment agency project.
Officials had been concerned earlier this year with the potential loss of funding due to the elimination of redevelopment agencies in the state.
New legislation - Assembly Bill 1484 - allows cities to apply for bond proceeds they would otherwise have been denied after the dissolution of redevelopment agencies.
Earlier this year, the City Council approved plans to move forward with capital- improvement spending for unfinished redevelopment projects. The city would be reimbursed after the redevelopment bond proceeds became available, officials said.
Assistant City Manager Linda Daniels said the city could lose $8 million in matching federal funds if it doesn't move forward soon on the interchange project.

BRISTOL, PA -- AMI Entertainment Network Inc. said it has completed its Ecast-to-AMI migration program. As of Feb. 8, all qualified and connected Ecast jukeboxes received the software update enabling them to run on the AMI network.
AMI said newly connected Ecast machines are still eligible for migration through the end of February, but must be connected no later than Feb. 25 begin the software upgrade, which takes 72 hours to load.
The migration of legacy NSM and View jukeboxes operating on the Ecast network is ongoing, AMI said. These older boxes require hardware conversion kits; AMI provides free updates to qualified backup hard drives. The jukebox company said all hardware conversions must be finished and registered by March 3.
Ecast closed its doors without warning on March 1, 2012, leaving hundreds of operators and thousands of bar owners without practical options to continue with coin-operated music. AMI, which became a secured creditor of Ecast, developed a migration strategy and implemented it shortly after the Ecast network shutdown. The migration gives former Ecast operators access to AMI's network and client software, and links their boxes to AMI's library of one million songs.
On March 4, Ecast servers will be fully decommissioned. Unconverted Ecast jukeboxes will become inoperable in the days following, AMI warned.
