That's really cool! With any luck, they'll thrive and offer an amazing fishery.
It Just Doesn't Matter....
I agree, looks like a new fishery.
So this projection is based on climate warming, and it is going 50 years in the future?

Is this a good thing?
I think that the brown trout could be looked on as the invaders as the smallmouth are native to that part of the U.S while the Browns were imported from Europe. I have fished streams where they co-exist often and I believe a healthy stream can sustain good populations of both species.
No one is making more water. Use what we have wisely.
Why worry? They are just a big sunfish anyway. While it may not be popular to say, smallies do taste good too!
US Veteran and concerned citizen
I would agree that new smallmouth fisheries aren't necessarily a bad thing. The bad thing is that global warming doesn't end in 50 years. Instead it goes on and on until the climate stabilizes again, IF it ever does and who knows when and where that point is. Those new smallie streams could become catfish and carp habitat or just simply dry up and blow away if the climate becomes too hot and dry in that part of the world. I don't know if this will happen. It's just that humanity has never been down this path before and I think we should try to take the longest view we can.
So we are worried about an exotic species being partially displaced by a native species based on a 50 year forecast about a 3 degree temperature rise when we can't accurately predict tomorrow's temperature within 3 degrees?

Greg Merson Wins 2012 Card Player Player of the Year AwardTwo Huge WSOP Titltes Including Main Event Win Secure POY Top Spot For Merson |
After an incredible twelve months of tournament poker the 2012 Card Player Player of the Year race has finally reached its conclusion. This year's top player was none other than 2012 World Series of Poker main event champion Greg Merson, who outlasted a total of 7,072 players en route to winning two of the biggest titles of the year, along with $9,664,179 in live tournament earnings and a winning total of 5,100 POY points.
The 24-year-old from Laurel, Maryland started his year off with two cashes in short handed events at the WSOP, first finishing 21st in the WSOP $3,000 no-limit hold'em six-max event for $16,850 and then just days later finishing fifth in the inaugural WSOP $2,500 four-max no-limit hold'em event, earning $70,280 but no POY points as he had bubbled the official four-handed final table.
Merson then catapulted himself into the mix in the POY race when he outlasted a tough 474-player field in the WSOP $10,000 buy-in no-limit hold'em six-max championship, defeating a tough final table that featured the likes of Keith Lehr, Shannon Shorr and Andrew Lichtenberger to earn $1,136,197 and 1,800 points. As a result, Merson jumped to 27th place in the overall POY standings at the time.
Just days later, Merson was one of 6,598 players to take his seat in the biggest tournament of the year, the WSOP $10,000 no-limit hold'em main event. He survived to day 5, when he played a huge pot with a pair and a flush draw up against his opponent's set. He didn't improve, and when the stacks where counted down Merson found himself crippled, left with only a few blinds. He managed to double up, and then double again, and before long was once again sitting with an average stack.
Merson made the final table with the third largest chip stack. Even before he made a name for himself with his bracelet win and two other cashes at this summer's WSOP, Merson was a successful online cash game player with millions of hands worth of experience. As a result, many in the poker community predicted that he would put up a strong showing at the final table come October.
After 402 hands of final table action, Merson had lived up to the expectations, using his familiarity with short-handed play to finish of his opponents and secure the title. For the win he earned $8,527,982 and his second WSOP gold bracelet.
In addition to all of the accolades and prize, Merson also scored 3,300 POY points, the most awarded in any one event this year. Due to the incredible field size and the large buy-in, the WSOP main event was big enough to catapult it's winner into the top ten of the POY with that alone, but when combined with Merson's other huge title, it gave him the outright lead in the race as the year wound down.
"You know, I didn't get much attention when I was playing online, so it was hard to justify my decision to play poker for a living to my friends and relatives," said Merson. "Now, they'll get to see me on television, winning absurd amounts of money. This is validation to myself, showing all of those people who said I wouldn't make it that they were wrong."
Merson has spoken publicly about his former battles with drug addiction, but in early December was happily able to report that he had been sober for a whole year. And what an incredible year of redemption it has been for the young professional, who earned more than $9.6 million and two of poker's most prestigious honors, the title of World Series of Poker main event champion and the title of 2012 Card Player Player of the Year.
"I'm just so lucky to even be alive," Merson told Card Player after his main event win. "When I won [my first] bracelet I just started crying. To have a second chance at life and to do what I want to do — it's amazing."

Ratings for Dr. Harvey Strecker
I recently had a large "growth" in my mouth removed by Dr. Strecker and his assistant. I am extremely fortunate to have been referred to him. Dr. Strecker and his staff were very efficient and professional. I couldn't thank them enough.
I had THREE failed rhinoplastys done by a surgeon in Seattle which left my breathing severely compromised. Dr Strecker kindly declined doing a revision as he didn't think the outcome would be what I wanted, but after 4 visits with him, he agreed to do a less invasive surgery to help my breathing. I felt so comfortable with Dr Strecker from the moment I met him. He has this ease and comfort about him and I never felt like I was being rushed or I was just another patient to him. I felt like he truly cared about my well-being. The surgery went flawlessly, and I actually cried because I finally able to breath again. Not only that, but nose actually looks much straighter than before. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone needing an ENT.
Finally, at age 26 I decided to see a doctor about my nose and breathing problems. I saw a doctor who informed me I had a badly deviated septum and he could fix it with surgery without changing the appearance of my nose. My nose was very crooked and if I was going to have surgery I wanted to also have it straightened out if possible. He then referred me to Dr Strecker who is amazing. I was terrified of the entire thing. Elective surgery is something I never thought I'd do, however, after my great experience with Strecker, I would put myself under the knife again if I had a doctor as great as him. He made me feel comfortable through the whole process. I never lacked any confidence in his knowledge or ability to fix my problem. Surgery went well. I can breathe better than ever and my nose looks a lot straighter than before. He managed to make it look straighter without even breaking the bone. Afterwards, he told me I could call him or come in to see him if I had any questions or concerns, which I appreciated. I am now 4 months post op and am doing great. Very, very happy with my experience and wishing I had done it sooner.
Dr Strecker fitted me in at the end of his surgery as an emergency. he accepted me at very short notice and I had my consultation at 6.30 pm when he should have already finished his long day. He was very professional, caring and helpful, giving me as much time as I needed to ask questions. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Strecker and his staff.
I was hesitant about septoplasty given what i had read online about the surgery. Dr.Strecker himself weighed in on the benefits and risks. I prefer surgeons like him who don't guarantee perfect results while omitting the risks. What stood out the most about him was while I was asking him 10 questions a minute he never once seemed irritated or impatient and after I went through my list, he asked me if i had any further questions for him and to come back if I did. If he doesn't know something he'll tell you. The surgery went off without a hitch and I was very well taken care of by the staff at the hospital.
Very rude and dismissive doctor. I've had chronic sinusitis for 4 years and saw multiple doctors and even brought recent CT scans for my appointment . He just said he can't diagnose me and would need me to redo CT scans. Wouldnt answer questions and kept saying "I dont know".Felt like i was a difficult case for him and he didnt trust my patient history, and even refused to refer me to another specialist when i asked. I was naive to trust good reviews here and asked my doctor to see Dr. Strecker. It turned out to be a waste of time of going all the way to White Rock and very unlpleasant experience asking him for help. Dont waste your time on seeing him for Sinusitis unless you need botox or fillers (he might be nicer to these patients)
Excellent surgeon, knowledgeable and really friendly. My elderly father had surgery for skin cancer on his face and you can't even tell. This doctor really knows his stuff.
Dr Strecker is amazing! I came in to see him in May for a deviated septum, and walked out knowing I wanted him to perform my Septorhinoplasty surgery. He is very knowledgeable in his work and made me feel comfortable by answering any questions I had. Dr. Strecker has performed a handful of surgeries and he showed me many before and after pictures of his patients which made me feel confident with his work. My surgery was scheduled the first week of July and Dr Strecker said I can come in prior to my surgery date if I had any more questions. It has been three weeks since my Septorhino, and not only can I breathe better but I love how well my nose is healing and its appearance. My friends can't tell I've had my nose reconstructed but they do tell me I look different. The day after my surgery I came in for my appointment almost two hours early at my mistake, the receptionist was kind to call Dr Strecker to ask if he can come in earlier to see me, and he did! Overall, I am happy with Dr Strecker's work and I would recommend him to anyone who's looking for a great surgeon.
Fixed my broken nose with one gentle yet firm adjustment saving me from surgery. Very grateful, he knows what he is doing!
Dr. Strecker performed sinus surgery to correct a blocked sinus. He did a fantastic job - in fact, by the next day you couldn't even tell I had surgery done. The organization of his office and staff is the best I've ever seen. The surgery times at the hospital are preset into their computer system, so you know right away when you are getting the surgery done. He does as many follow up appointments as needed to make sure everything is going well, and you never feel like he is rushing you out the door. It's rare to find a specialist with such a good bedside manner. Excellent choice.

A dog picture? Why? Isn't Maria crafting this weekend?
Well, yes, I am. I've made something for Fillan, and I'm making something for Hope. But I cannot show it yet ... All I can say is that both things are soft ... And so is Zam who took a nap with Magnus yesterday when I was trying to understand our new printer. The old printer-scanner-etc committed suicide yesterday, but then he was indeed rather old and had stopped scanning in a good way over a year ago. So, yesterday we bought a new one :-)

In the evening, after going to bed, Magnus use to read out loud to me (H.P. Lovecraft's stories) while I knit. This is what I completed the other day (or should I say night?). The beads along the edge are almost not visible ... But it doesn't matter :-)
This is the cover of my board book "the handbag of Alice", a round robin in ABEurope on the theme "Secrets in my handbag".
And this is the first spread of what's in Alice's handbag. The little "friends book" up to the right is for people to sign in, and in the envelope is a little note about what kind of things Alice like to keep, and not to keep, in her handbag. She's not the lipstick&cellphone kind of girl, you know ;-) There are also small notes, a coin, a piece of a map - things she likes.

Today I got two packages from Cindy (snail mail swap). She's really so kind and generous and I love all the things she sent me! I've got several *small* ideas of what to sew, but haven't really made up my mind yet. But isn't it a nice feeling to touch the fabric and ribbons and think "I'll create something out of this, I don't know what - yet - but ideas will surely come"?

Last year, airport merchants submitted more than 13,000 invoices with about 350,000 paper vouchers totaling more than $13 million for products and services purchased by distressed travelers biding time due to a delayed or cancelled flight. Continental Airlines reckoned it could save a money, and employee time if it could develop an automated approach. It turned to Citi--its electronic payment systems partner. The result: Travelers land-bound because of unscheduled airline interruptions are now handed at the gate a boarding pass-like paper card with a maximum spending limit encoded in the electronic voucher. MasterCard, more accustomed to processing plastic, is also a partner.
From Continental's perspective, the solution has resulted in more than just savings in resources. The virtual credit card allows Continental to track the progress of the voucher and monitor where and for what it is used, explains Tracy Stover, Citi's head of payment sales for North America. Each virtual card number remains inactive until the voucher is issued; then each transaction using the card triggers a report that includes the vendor and purchase information.
While the use of payment cards has been on the rise, this is a novel approach--using even unconventional materials for the card--but one, according to Stover, which underscores the ability of payment card technology to supplant almost any kind of paper-intensive processes where electronic settlements can be leveraged.

- - what is this fish?????
what is this fish????? 1 Attachment(s) I saw this fish on the cover of a fresh water atlas, and i wonder what its is its BEAUTIFUL. |
I think its an adult male green terror, aequidens rivulatus. Actually the aequidens part is probably no longer correct, I've given up trying to keep up with american cichlid genus names. |
its a green terror |
well i wanted a tank of oscars but now i think i want some of these :) |
flowerhorn? |
+one for flowerhorn. |
vote flowerhorn |
Not Flowerhorn. It's a GT. |
though it does have very similar Markings of a green terror. its head Makes it lean Farther towards a FlowerHorn. I also its Fins are those of a Flowerhorn. Its a Hybrid. LOLOLOLL but all seriousness. its a green terror. They Grow a 'nuchal' hump on its head. |
Gold Saum 1 Attachment(s) This is a Gold Saum, a fish bred in captivity that very closely resembles a true Green Terror. True Green Terrors are difficult to find in in captivity anymore, as they are becoming somewhat scarce in the wild as well. I own one of these fish and had a breeding pair not long ago, before I lost the female to a disease. See attached picture for proof. Although my picture is of a juvenile male . The linked picture is an adult male. Mature dominant males of this breed can develop the huge "nuchal hump", as it is known in the cichlid world. |

San Miguel : Accommodation Only
Set near Ibiza's northern coast, the pretty hamlet of San Miguel is perfect for families and couples wanting a relaxed holiday away from bigger, up-tempo resorts.
Traditional in atmosphere, the village has a collection of bars, restaurants and bars, but its main attraction is most definitely its scenic cove, just five kilometres away at Puerto San Miguel. Here, you'll find a charming, mostly sandy beach located between two wooded headlands and boasting bright blue waters that are shallow, warm and calm. Windsurfing, banana boats and pedalos are available and behind the sands, some modern hotels and a few pleasant restaurants and bars are set into the hills. The spectacular C'an Marca caves are a short walk over the headland and for days out, excellent bus services run to Ibiza Town and all around the island.

Office 2003 Web Components do not provide event handling by default. We need to do some alterations. Kindly follow this link to get more information: Handle Events for the Office 2003 Web Components in Visual Studio .NET.
After we convert OWC for event handling, we can add a reference to our project.

I don't necessarily think it's too soon. But it's certainly not funny at all. sorry

It's never too soon on Newsbiscuit and judging by a lot of the shite that is currently hitting the front page it can't be that unfunny.
But hell at least someone read this sub.

Too soon. Take 5 stars & a restraining order. "-)
(Seriously, I'd like to think that even his wife could laugh at this!
Horrible as the accident was, and unimaginable as her loss surely is,
people in grief find solace wherever they can, and gallows humour might be
a great outlet in that regard: maybe moreso than the awkward concern or faux-outrage
of people who can't know what she is actually feeling!
Your sub does not disrespect his memory in any way, you didn't kill him,
and nothing will bring him back, so I say, why the fuck not?! Good onya Madj!)Posted 5 years ago # -
Yeah, nothing funnier than mocking a dead military pilot. Takes a lot of cleverness. I'm sure that I can speak for his family by calling you a talentless pice of sh-t.
Oh, just noticed. You spell as good as you write.

Rikkor. I read the sub. The dead military pilot was not actually mocked. He was in fact simply used as a device for the ridicule of Muamar Gadaffi.
Given that he may have been on active service in the Middle east a few months ago, part of me thinks and hopes he might actually have approved!
But I can't know and assume nothing.Posted 5 years ago # -
Busted, Mr. 5 stars.

It was me. I gave my reasons. Feel free to disagree.
Posted 5 years ago # -
Good, please tell me when someone close to you dies in a horrible manner. I'll be the first to mock your grief. Is it a deal?
Posted 5 years ago # -
Who's grief was being mocked?
(My maternal family is from Dunblane by the way! I had relatives in that school. Only one was shot and she survived so I don't pretend to talk with any authority: But its like this. Jokes at the expense of the teachers and the kids were in bad taste. Jokes at the expense of Thomas Hamilton (you probably forgot who he was) were not.
But we used to joke within the family about my cousins child: 'Thank fuck she was a <redacted> so she knew to run like fuck at the first sign of trouble'. (she was very badly shot in the leg, but lived to fight anothet day).
far from disrespecting those involved, the (weak) humour allowed those of us affected a means to talk about the unspeakable, and acted as a means to normalise the horrendous. That's the beauty of humour)I don't see how this joke is at the expense of the pilot. He was just as brave whichever way the plane came down!
But you have your deal if you want it.
Posted 5 years ago # -
...but well done for smoking me out there Rikkor "-)
What was it that gave me away?
Clever use of your deductive reasoning: was it the way I posted that I'd awarded 5 stars to the sub (6 minutes before you gathered all of us suspects into the drawing room to begin a Poirot/Columbo style interrogation and unmasking of whichever bastard had awarded 5 stars) that gave you a clue?
"...and I'd have got away with it too if it hadn't been for you meddling kids!"
Posted 5 years ago # -
Always hilarious when Rikkor takes the moral high ground (when it suits him).
As Jammydodgers rightly pointed out this was a Gadaffi joke, wonder if anyone offers a 'comedy reading course'You might not like my writing but AT LEAST I write ! You've never quite got your head round the purpose of this place. Oh sorry just noticed your Amy Whinehouse sub (corker ! I'm sure sure some stars will be along soon).
I'm a 'talentless pice of sh*t' and MY spellings crap… good to see wit is alive and well in the colonies.
Posted 5 years ago # -
Actually 'talentless pice of shit' 'spells as good as you write' is pretty fucking funny re-reading it!
And we dare to say Americans have no sense of irony? But unlike you bunch of cynics, I have a warm human heart beating in my chest, and I will give Rikkor the benefit of the doubt and say that this ironic outburst was deliberately crafted for comic effect.And I'd also like to commend Madj for his admirable restraint with this initial sub:
Had he said : "Al Megrahi defiantly claims credit for blowing up Red Arrow" that would probably have been crossing some boundaries.
But he didn't. So that's OK. Well done him!
Posted 5 years ago # -
"Al Megrahi defiantly claims credit for blowing up Red Arrow" I think I used that one for the Shuttle crash.... ooh that'll upset them over the pond.

Hi Cathie,
You and Steve made a bracelet using pigment powders and Sculpey a couple of years ago. I saw you used tiny scoopers for the powders. Where did you get them?
Hi Cathie:
I just went down to my local Michael's store to recreate a necklace you had on your blog for my mom for Mother's Day( don't laugh, it was the May 7, 2009 post). I could not find the silver pendant r the tiny heart charms, or the Peace charm. You mentioned they were made by Fresh and Modify- could you clarify? Where do I find these item? Help!
Trying to download your snapsuite template for my daughter's baby shower without any luck....any suggestions??
ReplyDeleteHi Cathie & Steve, I just found your blog, etc. I have loved your show from the beginning, however lately haven't been able to find it. I am now going to follow your blog, ffacebook and youtube videos. Keep up the good work. Glad you didn't get hurt any worse than you did.
ReplyDeleteHi Cathie and Steve,
Watched you both making a necklace out of a washer, and I found that so exciting. I am hoping you can make one for bracelets and earrings as I am having a diffcult time doing them. I am a rookie at jewelry making so I can use all the help I can get.
Please and Thank you

Talk:Darmanitan (Pokémon)
Due to special coding in place in the article to illustrate Darmanitan's forms, certain displays will change showing Darmanitan as though it were in either its Standard Mode or Zen Mode. However, this cannot be accurately reproduced here. This will only affect the type-themed color displays, the EV yield shown on the page itself, the base stats entry which is unhidden, the type effectiveness entry which is unhidden, and the moves noted as STAB for this Pokémon. This changes every time the article isn't edited for more than a week, so when the time comes, click here to return to the page and change the display. |

Hihidaruma is a mainly red, squat ape-like Pokémon. Hihidaruma has long, bushy flame-colored eyebrows, curled at the beginning portions, and round, black-ringed eyes. The upper portion of its tan-colored face is separated from the lower portion by a diagonal stripe of red, and its large mouth sports spiked teeth. All these facial features give the impression of a manic or angered expression, and Hihidaruma's head has no discernible neck to distinguish it from the rest of the body and its rounded back, which culminates in a stubby tail. It has long arms with spiky hair fringes on the wrists and large tan-colored hands, with a similar arrangement for its hind limbs. Additionally, Hihidaruma's underside sports a patterning of three tan-colored ovals. Steph 18:52, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
Name Origin
I think this way would be a more complete origin: Hihidaruma is a portmanteau of the words 狒狒 hihi, baboon, 火だるま hidaruma, body covered with flames and 達磨 daruma, the Daruma Doll. KurowaSan 06:12, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
Shouldn't this be added?: 火 hi also means fire, refering to its type. --Pokequaza 06:38, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
Pre-evolution almost guaranteed to exist. But I guess we wait until confirmation? --Element03 04:18, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
like always... Ataro 04:24, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
Daruma Sprite
Can anyone pute this image into the page.
Daruma Mode and EVs
Do we know how the EVs work? It says Attack and Special Attack are swapped but is that really the case? If you EV-trained in Attack and Hihidaruma switches to Daruma mode, do those EVs get transferred to special attack? In other words, Atk/SpAtk would be 203/30 base in normal mode if Attack is maxed. In Daruma Mode does this go to 30/203, or 93/140?
- The EVs themselves wouldn't transfer, but that's a moot point anyway, since four EVs equals one extra stat point (unless that changed in B/W). Whatever the Attack stat is after the EV training would then become the Special Attack stat in Daruma Mode, and vice versa. Phantom♫Junkie 13:55, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
- What about the defense change though? It seems like the actual attack and spatk stats aren't just swapped, only the base stats change. DisgruntledGoat 18:59, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
Daruma mode = Dharma mode?
The Daruma doll, after all, is based off of Bodhidharma so maybe the "Daruma mode" of Hihidaruma's found in the desert could be seen as Hihidaruma achieving enlightenment like Bohdidharma and succesive dharmas did? --Mackinz of SoulSilver 18:24, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
- Fixed your link. And that's actually an interesting observation. Perhaps that should go in its Origin section? --AndyPKMN 20:34, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
- My link was broken...? Weird. I doubled checked that link. Ah well. Anyway, this observation was made when I was researching Daruma dolls (I'll tell you on dA if you're interested why) and it should definitely go into the "Origin" section because I've been finding a few deeper bases for certain Pokemon. The current "Origin" section does not give enough of a thought to the "Dharma mode" idea. --Mackinz of SoulSilver 01:15, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
It may be a bit of a stretch, but possible Daruma Mode origin;
This just occurred to me yesterday while I was playing Pac-Man. Perhaps Hihidaruma's Daruma Mode Forme is at least partly based off of a Pac-Man ghost when Pac-Man eats a power pellet. Look at the similarities; First, there's appearances; Daruma Mode Hihidaruma is blue with blank eyes and a closed, zigzaggy mouth. When a ghost in Pac-Man turns edible, it becomes blue, its eyes go blank, and it gains a zigzaggy mouth. Not to mention, when a ghost becomes edible, they become slower. When Hihidaruma enters Daruma Mode, its speed becomes virtually nonexistant. And the ghosts, when they become edible, they stop taking the offensive and become more defensive, as they can no longer harm Pac-Man. Similarly, when Hihidaruma changes form, its Attack plummets and its defenses go way up. Now, at this point, or perhaps even earlier, you may have been wondering, "But if Daruma Mode is based off a Pac-Man ghost, why isn't it a Ghost-type?" I think I have the answer to this as well. Originally, Pac-Man ghosts weren't actually referred to as ghosts, but as monsters. And there's no specific type for monsters. Also, unlike the arguments I've seen for the "like a moth to a flame" stuff for Ulgamoth, Pac-Man is Japanese in origin, so it isn't that farfetch'd for a Pokémon to be based off of some element of the game, am I right?
So what do you guys think? Is this good for the Origin section? Or the Trivia section at least? - unsigned comment from Missingno. Master (talk • contribs) 11:09, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- That makes no sense whatsoever Ataro 12:22, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- It makes some sense. Even more considering somebody important in Nintendo's (forgot which) favorite video game character is Pac-Man. It's Turtwig A! My talk or wiki edits 12:23, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- It makes sense, except for one thing. Why would Hihidaruma be based on a Pac-Man ghost? The appearance is the only thing to draw those similarities. No dex info, etc. backs it up. I don't know, perhaps the appearance is enough to deserve mention, but it seems like a bit of a stretch to me. --AndyPKMN 14:18, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- I agree that it's a stretch but I do think it's a possibility.. it could explain not the design of either forme but the actual inspiration for the change/transition from one to the other. I mean, Hihidaruma (as Ken would have known it) could have been designed simply as a pure fire-type initially and then later drawn inspiration from Pac-Man for Daruma mode, or even the other way around! Basically, I agree with Missigno. Master in so far as it's a possibility but there may be no connection. Very good find though, probably worth a Trivia mention! Oshawhat? 23:00, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Hacking Normal Darmanitan
Apparently hacking a normal Darmanitan with Zen Mode is strange. After it triggers, the ability changes back to Sheer Force. Jimmyt26 22:28, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
Flare Blitz
Could it be noted that Flare Blitz, when combined with Sheer Force, Sunny Day, an item that raises the attack of fire type moves, the STAB, Using Bulk Up a few times and the fact Darmanitan has the strongest physical attack of all fire types is probably the strongest Flare Blitz that any Pokemon can use? I managed to knock out a Gyarados of the same level just by using it, it makes the move super power full. Buizel1991 16:37, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
- No, not really. We list the most possible damage that can be inflicted on Shuckle's page, but that is about it. --SnorlaxMonster 11:49, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
Switch not working?
None of the switches on the page appear to be working. Although this article has not been edited for weeks, the move table does not show Psychic as being a STAB move, Zen Mode Darmanitan does not appear in the evobox, and none of the templates have a Psychic type border. XVuvuzela2010X 15:42, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
- Both the revisionday and currentday magic words are day of the month. So it doesn't work as it would initially appear to across months. Werdnae (talk) 22:18, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
Related to the wise
I don't know if anyone attended, but when Darmanitan becomes Zen mode, it hands hold its head like if it were closing its ears, the mouth becomes closed, and the eyes don't have pupils like if they were closed. My point is... Where have we seen this before? The three wise monkeys, Panpour, Pansear and Pansage! I don't know if he is related to the trio but I think we should add this on Trivia. User:Igor Castro Chucre
Regarding shiny Zen Mode Darmanitan
If Zen Mode is Darmanitan's Hidden Ability, only obtainable from the Pokémon Dream World and you cannot get a shiny Pokémon from the Dream World, doesn't that mean that it's technically impossible to get a shiny Zen Mode Darmanitan without hacking? KyuremsIceBlade (talk) 22:36, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
Never mind... I just figured out the answer... KyuremsIceBlade (talk) 22:41, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
Zen Mode artwork?
So is there still no official Sugimori artwork for Darmanitan's Zen Mode? Where exactly is the artwork obtained from, anyway? DisgruntledGoat (talk) 12:16, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
- According to our Bulbanews articles, we get artwork from the Pokémon Daisuki Club. ★Jo the Marten★ ಠ_ಠ♥ 12:26, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
Zen Mode at Dream World
Lorenzo The Comic (talk) 13:14, 6 December 2012 (UTC) You were right, it seems that Zen Mode Darmanitan has no Dream World artwork, or even a footprint unlike Pirouette Forme Meloetta who functions perfectly fine when hacked to be available outside of battle. A few weird things happen with Zen Mode Darmanitan, such as if one were to visit its Dream Home, the visiting Pokémon will be invisible at first, but after it moves from one part of the room back into the lobby it will re-appear. But this time, the visitor Pokémon stays frozen and cannot be clicked on.

You haven't attached any malformed .msf files. Even if you had, I don't think reading it is a very likely way to find out what happened. Keeping a bug "open" for the sake of it serves nobody's interests.

I see it all the time. It happens when you have a process other than Thunderbird modify the mailbox, and the .msf index gets out of synch. (I have a mailbox I use as an inbox that receives messages from another process. On UNIX, Mozilla makes provisions for this using what they call a "move mail" account. But they provide no equivalent capability in the Windows builds (which I'm using), so I'm stuck with frequently needing to regenerate the index. Fortunately recent releases have added a button to the folder property dialog, saving the effort of exiting, deleting the .msf, and restarting.) (In reply to comment #6) > Why Inbox.msf has been corrupted ? This is a bug. Yes, I'd agree it is a bug. The logic that controls when to regenerate the .msf index has some holes. Though they go largely unnoticed by typical users receiving mail via Thunderbird's internal POP3 or IMAP retrieval. -Tom

Please note that if you are imap, using a trunk build poses virtually no risk to your data. But if you feel you can't test now, I would strongly recommend testing beta 3 when it comes out. Given deleting .msf file corrects the display, this hints ata dupe. But difficult to nail strictly by symptoms and without testing the latest development builds.
