Why? Wynaut! (ソーナノ!?ジムバッジとソーナンス!! Wynaut!? The Gym Badges and Wobbuffet!!) is the 46th episode of Pokémon: Master Quest.
After beating Clair and getting the last badge, Ash is all set to go for the Johto League (Silver Conference). But it's three months until that day comes so Ash has time to prepare. However, he loses all his Gym Badges. Will he get them back and who or what is responsible for stealing them and why?
Episode plot
Clair comes to the heroes with her cookies. Ash is glad he has all the badges for the Johto League. Clair corrects him, as the official name is Johto League Silver Conference. She knows in three months, at Silver Town, near Mt. Silver, the league will be held. Ash wants already to go, but Brock and Misty think it is too early and needs to register. Clair tells he can register at the place where he registered for the Johto Gyms. Ash sees his destination is New Bark Town, where they started the Johto journey.
Team Rocket thinks they should steal the badges, considering them to be worth a lot of money. Jessie wants the badges for herself, wanting to enter the League. James and Meowth remind her what happened at Indigo League, but Jessie still wants to compete. She goes to take some food, but sees it is gone. She, Meowth and James accuse Wobbuffet of eating the food, who objects. The heroes and Clair go out of the town, but are approached by Jessie and James, disguised as news reporters. They want some info about Ash's final win. Jessie takes his jacket off and gives it to Meowth, who takes the badges, while James puts a mantle on Ash, looking like a king and takes photos. Once done, Jessie gives his stuff back and goes with James.
Ash thinks he should've been asked questions and was prepared for it. Jessie and James are to chant their motto, but Meowth stops them. Ash thinks they should, considering the trouble. With that word, Jessie and James take off their disguises and chant. They declare they stole the badges, so Ash sees he only has bottle caps. So, the heroes and Clair chase them. Meanwhile, Wobbuffet was given the task of watching over the badges. It sees berries and thinks Team Rocket would praise it for finding them. Wobbuffet harvests the berries and sings a happy song. It sees someone is taking the badge case and finds out a Pokémon thief. Team Rocket arrives and want the badges. However, Wobbuffet reports it was stolen and draws the image of the thief.
Jessie thinks it was a Wooper, so declares a search for it. The heroes did not find Team Rocket, so Clair believes the badges can be re-issued if the theft is reported. Ash responds those badges have a sentimental value, each one has a memory of a Gym battle attached to it. Clair, Brock and Misty see the value of the badges and promise to get them back. Team Rocket encounters a Wooper and goes to get it. However, it jumps away, so Team Rocket tracks it. Ash sends Bayleef and Noctowl to search, while Clair scouts away with Dragonair. Noctowl comes to Bayleef, who has not seen the badges.
They see the Pokémon thief, who has the box. Noctowl and Bayleef approach it, who cannot open the box. Bayleef opens the box, revealing the badges inside it. Noctowl goes to report to its master, while Bayleef stays with this Pokémon thief. Noctowl comes to Ash and reports the badges. Meanwhile, Wynaut goes away with berries, as Team Rocket tracked Wooper and see the badges. Bayleef stands to protect the badges, so Jessie sends out Arbok and James' Victreebel, which attaches itself to James' head. Arbok uses Poison Sting, though Bayleef takes the badges and Wooper away. However, Victreebel's Vine Whip causes Bayleef to trip over.
Arbok uses Poison Sting, but the Pokémon thief jumps and uses Counter, reflecting the attack back to Arbok. Team Rocket is still pleased the badges are present, but Ash comes to take them back. Arbok uses Poison Sting to distract Ash, as Team Rocket flees into the balloon. James warns the twerp he can buy off the badges, but Jessie still wants to enter the League. Per Ash's order, Bayleef launches Ash to the balloon. However, Team Rocket flies up, preventing Ash to get onto the balloon. Noctowl goes to pull him, but Ash falls down, onto Clair's Dragonair. Ash thanks Clair and tells her that Team Rocket has the badges.
Pikachu goes onto Noctowl, to track Team Rocket. Pikachu fires his signature Thunderbolt to blast off Team Rocket and throw them into a tree, destroying the Meowth balloon. The badges fall down, though Ash, Dragonair, Clair, Bayleef and Pikachu manage to collect them back. However, Ash sees he misses the Rising Badge, so everyone goes to search for it. Bayleef and Noctowl are approached by the Pokémon thief, who gives the Rising Badge to them. Bayleef presents the badge to her master. Ash is glad, so Bayleef and Noctowl point at the thief, but see it is gone. Ash tries to search in the bushes, but thinks the two are imagining things. However, Bayleef and Noctowl say goodbye to the thief, who is on a boat in the nearby river.
Misty, Clair and Brock come and see Ash managed to find all the badges. Ash contacts Oak and reports he got all the Johto badges. Oak thinks Ash is having respect from his Pokémon as he does, then gets crushed by Snorlax, Kingler, Bulbasaur and Muk, so Oak logs out, leaving Ash and Pikachu confused. Later, Clair gives directions to New Bark Town. Brock wishes he can stay with Clair, while Misty drags him away. The heroes part ways with Clair, towards New Bark Town.
- Wynaut, along with Kecleon, were the only Generation III Pokémon to be seen before the digital transition.
- This is the first episode in which, though in flashbacks, all the Gym Leaders in one region were present.
- The "Who's that Pokémon?" is Steelix.

China is to carry out a geographical survey of islands in the East China Sea at the center of a bitter dispute with Japan, state media said yesterday.
The survey of the Diaoyutai Islands (釣魚台) — known as the Senkakus in Japan, the Diaoyu Archipelago (釣魚群島) in China and also claimed by Taiwan — was part of a program to map China's "territorial islands and reefs," the Xinhua news agency said, citing a Chinese state geographical agency.
The maritime dispute, which has simmered on and off for years, intensified last year when the Japanese government nationalized three islets in the small chain it did not already own, triggering anger and demonstrations in China.
The protests were allowed to take place by the Chinese authorities in Beijing, who use nationalism to bolster their claims to legitimacy, particularly regarding Japan, which occupied parts of China in the 20th century.
The mapping exercise was part of China's efforts to "safeguard its maritime rights and interests," Xinhua said, without saying when it would take place or making clear whether it would involve activities on land, as opposed to sea-based surveying.
It quoted Zhang Huifeng, an official with the Chinese National Administration of Surveying, Mapping and Geoinformation, as saying that there could be "difficulties."
"There are some difficulties in landing on some islands to survey and in surveying and mapping the surrounding sea area of the islands, because some countries infringed and occupied these islands of China," he said.
Both Tokyo and Beijing have scrambled fighter jets to the area in recent weeks in a further escalation of the row, though no actual clashes have taken place.
China's armed forces have been instructed to raise their fighting ability this year and "should focus closely on the objective of being able to fight and win a battle," state media said.
This year, "the PLA [People's Liberation Army] and the Chinese People's Armed Police Force should focus closely on the objective of being able to fight and win a battle," said a report in the overseas edition of Chinese Communist Party mouthpiece the People's Daily.
The directive came in a document released at the beginning of the year by the PLA General Staff on military training this year, added the report, republished from a Web site linked to a PLA newspaper.
Japanese public broadcaster NHK on Monday reported that Japan will deploy two more patrol ships to boost its defense of the islands and has conducted its first drill simulating the recapture of an isle seized by enemy forces.
Xinhua said that the survey was part of a program begun in 2009 and that by the end of last year, China had completed the identification and "precise positioning" of approximately 6,400 islands.
In September last year, China announced the "base points and baselines of the territorial waters of the Diaoyu Islands," filing details with the UN as part of the diplomatic sparring over the issue.
Within days, the Chinese State Oceanic Administration released geographic information about the islands in what Xinhua called a "new move to affirm China's sovereignty."
The data included "the exact longitude and latitude of Diaoyu Island (釣魚島) and 70 of its affiliated islets," along with "location maps, three-dimension effect graphs and sketch maps for the Diaoyu Islands," Xinhua added.

Praise for Out of a Far Country
"Christopher Yuan and Angela Yuan have told the story of their miraculous journey from broken lives, relationships, and
dreams to a place of hope and healing. Out of a Far Country brings home the living truth that in the midst of a broken
and hurting world, God is at work to redeem, renew, and reconcile his beloved. I'm particularly happy to endorse this
book because Christopher, like myself, was broken in prison and redeemed by Christ."
—Chuck Colson, founder of Prison Fellowship and the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview
"Out of a Far Country reads like a modern rendition of the prodigal son parable, only it is more gripping. The journey
taken by Christopher Yuan is rarely documented. Be prepared, for the raw emotions of both mother and son authentically
mark every page. The spiritual lessons to be gained from this book are many. May it gain a vast audience!"
—J. Paul Nyquist, PhD, president of Moody Bible Institute
"This is a moving account of how an Asian mother's fragile love turns into a prayerful, patient, and tenacious force of
forgiveness. It is also a gripping narrative of a son's search for belonging and meaning. Out of a Far Country breeds
hope in every despairing heart."
—Lisa Espineli Chinn, director of International Student Ministries for InterVarsity/USA
"The Good Shepherd knows his sheep and calls them by name. Christopher Yuan, trapped in a life of drugs and sexual
addiction, heard that call and rose to follow Jesus. His and his mother's account of that rising is a profound story of
redemption that all of us in this broken generation need to hear."
—Duane Litfin, president emeritus of Wheaton College in Illinois
"Relevant, courageous, fascinating, and much more. I have known the Yuans for many years, and their walk is in line with
their talk. This important and needed story goes against the wind, but it is one hundred percent in the right
—Dr. George Verwer, founder and former international director of Operation Mobilisation
"Out of a Far Country is a true-life parable of saving grace for a prodigal mother and a wayward son who needed God's
forgiveness. Their story will warm the heart and lift the spirit of every parent who prays for a wandering child and
every believer who needs to be reminded why the gospel is good news."
—Dr. Philip G. Ryken, president of Wheaton College in Illinois
"At one point, Angela and Christopher were living worlds apart. I have heard their story countless times, and it never
grows old. I know you will be amazed by the God who did the impossible to bring this mother and son back together."
—Alan Chambers, president of Exodus International
"This is the story of God's persistent chase of a wayward son through the prayers and love of a determined mother. But
even more, it is a testimony to the fact that loving God is a far more satisfying pursuit than following our own
desires. I am thankful that Christopher and Angela are willing to be so transparent about their journey. Christopher's
desire to follow Christ regardless of the struggle stands as a model for all who desire to love God with all their
—Dr. Joseph M. Stowell, president of Cornerstone University in Grand Rapids, Michigan
"God snatched Christopher Yuan from a desperately empty life and offered him the hope of Jesus Christ. This is a story
of God's redemption, love, and mercy in the midst of overwhelming sin and a heart that was far from God. Get two copies
of this book—you will want to give one to a friend who needs Jesus."
—Dr. James MacDonald, senior pastor of Harvest Bible Chapel in Rolling Meadows, Illinois
"The story of Angela Yuan and Christopher Yuan, Out of a Far Country, will minister rich grace and hope to mothers who
are praying for the return of a prodigal, to the prodigals they love, and to anyone battling a sinful addiction that
seems impossible to overcome. This is a deeply moving account of God's amazing power and love."
—Nancy Leigh DeMoss, best-selling author, host of the Revive Our Hearts radio program

Chicago, IL (SportsNetwork.com) - Marian Hossa scored the lone shootout goal in the second round, as the Chicago Blackhawks clipped the Minnesota Wild, 3-2, on Thursday at United Center. After the first two shooters came up empty, Hossa skated in deliberately before firing a heavy slapper from the slot that overpowered Ilya Bryzgalov and slipped across the goal line to put the Blackhawks on top. Corey Crawford then turned aside the final two shooters with relative ease, as Chicago snapped its three-game slide. The Blackhawks sit three points back of Colorado for second place in the Central Division. Ben Smith and Bryan Bickell each scored once, while Crawford finished with 25 saves for the Blackhawks. "I thought we played the way we had to be: plain and simple," Chicago head coach Joel Quenneville said. "We didn't give up much all game." Charlie Coyle and Erik Haula had a goal apiece for the Wild, who salvaged a point to move five clear of Dallas for the first wild card spot in the Western Conference. "I just felt like mentally we were tired," Minnesota's Zach Parise said. "I don't know if physically we were, but mentally -- we just looked like a tired team." Bryzgalov stopped 24 shots in the setback. Bickell broke a 1-1 tie 2:45 into the final frame, as he buried his own rebound attempt from the low right side following a nice initial save from Bryzgalov. Haula brought the Wild even with 1:54 to play when he threw a seemingly harmless shot on net from the right circle that fooled Crawford and snuck under the Chicago netminder's glove to make it 2-2. An entertaining extra session failed to produce a winner. Early on, Coyle's tip-in from the low right side with 5:41 left in the first gave Minnesota a 1-0 lead, but Smith stuffed home a rebound 2:29 into the second to tie the game at 1-1. Game Notes Minnesota wrapped up a four-game roadtrip at 2-1-1 ... The Wild dropped to 18-1-4 this season when leading after one period ... Both teams went 0-for-1 on the power play ... Chicago improved to 18-12-8 on the road this season.

If you're a fan of amusement park rides and just can't get enough of the "Tonight Show," here's great news.
Host Jimmy Fallon announced a new ride at Universal Orlando Resort called "Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon."
"It's scary, it's fun, it's exciting," Fallon said on Tuesday.
Fallon compared it to the Harry Potter ride, except that "it's New York City."
It's all very hush-hush, and the host couldn't elaborate much on what to expect.
Universal Orlando Resort said fans can expect a full "Tonight Show" experience. The resort found inspiration in the celebrity races that have been featured on the late night talk show, according to Jason Surrell, creative director at Universal Creative.
"Since Universal Studios Florida has long been famous for placing guests in the middle of their favorite movies and TV shows, we thought it was a perfect fit," he said on the resort's blog.
"It's fun, and it looks like the studio," Fallon promised. And there will be smoke and water.
U.S. & World
Thrill seeking fans will have to wait to take the ride. It doesn't open up until 2017.

Best of 2013?
December 19, 2013, 09:05 PM »
I know there really hasn't been a ton to choose from this year for the Star Wars line(s), but I thought since we usually did a best of the year list it might be fun to see some people's favorites. Really, the 3 3/4" line was pretty sparse, with most everything just now getting to stores or online. I think more and more of us passed on parts (or all) of these waves as well, or were at least more selective. We had the arrival of the 6" line, and some neato Vintage exclusives. Oh, and the reintroduction of 5 POA figures into the line, so there's that. What are some of your favorites of this year?
Black Series 3 3/4"
- Padme, Luke Ceremonial, Pablo Jill, Vizam
Black Series 6"
- Han Solo, Boba Fett, Sandtrooper (although all were pretty nifty)
- Amazon Slave 1, K-Mart Vintage 2 Packs and Ewok Catapult
Overall, a very slow year for Star Wars stuff. I know that out of the first three waves of the 3 3/4" Black Series, I've picked up 8 figures total. I am really looking forward to the next wave up, but I'm curious to see where the line goes beyond that for 2014. I personally really like the 6" figures so far, although they are a little bit pricey. The vintage exclusives were some of the most exciting for me this year, I've been tempted to get a second Slave 1 for the prices they've dropped to lately on Amazon. All in all, a slow year. Good figures, but maybe not all that exciting overall.

BRUTAL year.
Slave 1 and droid factory set were the only things I purchased this year, and only when the price was so low on the slave 1 I had to add the droid factory figures to get free shipping.
I get to open them on Christmas, but I assume the only things I bought will also be my favorites.
Crazy bad year.

Not hard to choose:
Black series: boba fett, Han and the sandtrooper. Resistant to the new scale? These will take you off the fence. Greedo would be another one, unexpectedly.
3 3/4 inch: Vizam, hands down. Merumeru, luminara, and Pablo Jill all stand out in a small crowd.
Mission series: the Vader set is the most worthwhile with two new figures. I tend to think jango is still the best figure in this first wave though.
Saga legends: not widely available yet but the storm trooper is the best figure in this category and this year overall by far.
Exclusives: the kmart sets stand apart from a dull group this year.

Bleh, tough to pick stuff this year. Few items really stand out as great additions to my collection.
My top picks would have to be the following:
Ewok Catapult
Black Series 6" Sandtrooper, Fett, and Maul
Black Series 4" Wave 3 (Neyo, Vizam, and Merumeru in particular)
Droid Factory (especially at the $30 and lower price point)
The above items seemed to deliver the most bang for the buck this year, along with very few quality issues. Below are my runners-up, which were all above-average but had "issues" that held them back from being what I deemed the "best":
Endor AT-AT - great paint but the price was killer
Republic Gunship - once again a topnotch repaint, but the price was awful
Black Series 4" Mara Jade and Stormtrooper - solid figures but hair and paint issues made me sad
K-Mart Scanning Crews - good sets overall, but seemed to have more paint and plastic quality problems than normal
Fett's Slave 1 - Great repaint, but the quality-wise seems like a step-down compared to the 2010 Jango version
Overall I agree with Brian that this was a slow year. There was a decent amount of product, but the releases were mostly repetitive and/or very spaced out. I doubt we will get more items next year, but hopefully we get more "new" and less "repeats".

I was happy with most of the Vintage and Black Series product this year. Stand outs for me was anything Imperial, but one of my favorite figures was Vizam.

Best Figure:
Probably because they're still fresh, it's a tie between Merumeru and Vizam. Home-run Jabba Palace goon and long requested wookiee. Both excellent figures. Also would have to give a nod to Pablo Jill since I thikn he turned out really well.
Best Vehicle:
Not really a lot to choose from here, so I'll go with ESB Slave I from Amazon. Despite Amazon's inititial shipping issues, the ship is still a great ESB Slave I upgrade. My runner up would probably be the little Yoda Starfighter. That was a great set I thought.
Best Exclusive:
Kmart Ewok Catapult. Sorry Brent, but Ewok action figures are fun. I can't believe how many of these little buggers we have now, awesome! Runner up would be the Amazon Droid Factory, but that is mainly related to the blow-out pricing and not figure selection.
Best Multipack:
Kmart Scanner Dude sets. Two figures plus big accessory for less than $15 is a great deal in this day and age. Runner up would be the TRU Arena Jedi sets.

Best 3.75" Figure: I'm torn on Meru Meru or Pablo Jill... I'd give a close 3rd to Luke Ceremony because he's OT, he's vastly different to the 2007 figure (all positive, if not subtle ways), and that's about it... TBS is good quality, there just wasn't much of it to judge by ultimately.
Best Vehicle: I don't have much to pick from here so I'm going with nothing... Some of the mini-rigs are cooll, but not that exciting to me (still interesting, I liked Yoda's ride too for the concept alone). The TIE Interceptor was the only ship I had interest in owning really but I can't say I was excited by it. I think the Slave-I is quality people (collectors) wanted though, so I'd have to give it a nod too even though I don't actually own it, nor do I plan to own it.
Best 6" Figure: I don't own one, but my vote goes to Han... He's so far the only figure to truly tempt me. The Sandtrooper almost did, but not quite. Han, I have a hard time passing every time I see him. The idea of a whole new line of toys to collect is enough to keep me away.
Best Exclusive: K-Mart wins... The Ewok Catapult is great, but just a slight notch below great priced generic Imperial Trooper army builder 2-packs, complete with large random background accessory. This is the type of thing collectors once got toy erections over. It was also one of the only difficult things to find this year not counting Wave 3 of TBS which is just limping out to retail. Exclusives were limited to 3 retailers mostly (Target's lame one doesn't even count). Amazon certainly made things easy but nothing was on par with K-Mart. Toys R Us is the only one to come close with their Jedi sets, and the very fact they're PT makes them lose (And I still like PT stuff).
Best Multi-Pack: Again, K-Mart's 2-packs... With the Ewoks slightly behind the Imperial sets.
My worst is fairly simple...
Movie Heroes/Legends was, to me, a failure in every way but Hasbro recognizing price is an issue with this line's popularity overall at this point. Now if they can just get somewhere between $5 and $10 in both price and quality, and I'll be impressed a bit more.
Only one thing to me was worse, and that's these shampoo bottle figures. I get the idea they're going with there. They're failing though despite the low price for a large figure. The 12" world of figures really needs abandoned by mass production and left to smaller companies like Sideshow, Dragon, Hot Toys, etc.
However I think the 12" bottles will go away. I can't say underarticulated "cheap" figures are going to do the same. If anything, I feel that's the direction the line will go more as we go forward. It'll only truly start to disappointment as figures of new characters from new properties will be left to this style. Captain Rex is my first major sting from this. There will be more though, as 2015 nears.

Matt Jones tallied 15 kills in the Crimson victory over Newbury (photo courtesy Gil Talbot).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - The Harvard men's volleyball team opened the 2011 season with a 3-1 victory over Newbury Tuesday night. The Crimson jumped out to a 2-0 lead before Newbury won the third set. Harvard rebounded with great kill efficiency in the fourth set to capture the match.
Freshmen Kyle Rehkemper and Michael Owen made an early impact for the Crimson, each scoring two services aces in the first set to help Harvard build a 10-6 lead. With Derek Jansma serving, the Crimson built an 18-9 lead behind two kills from Matt Jones and an ace by Jansma. Newbury made a four-point run to bring the score to 23-19 late in the first set before two Nighthawk attack errors secured the opening set for Harvard.
The early half of the second set was a back-and-forth affair with neither team taking a definitive lead and the score becoming tied six times, the latest at 12-12. Harvard made a surge behind two more service aces from Rehkemper to give Harvard an 18-14 lead and force a Newbury timeout. The teams exchanged points throughout the end of the set with the Crimson grabbing a 25-18 win and two-set lead.
In the third set, the Nighthawks took advantage of a streak of service aces by Danny Kim and Crimson errors to close the set gap to one. With the score 17-16 in Newbury's favor, Kim scored four aces and the Crimson committed two receiving errors to give the Nighthawks a 23-16 lead that Harvard could not overcome. Newbury took the third set, 25-20.
Harvard wasted no time recovering as it jumped out to a 7-2 lead in the fourth set. The Crimson converted 41.7 percent of its kill attempts in the fourth set to ensure that they would win both the set and the match, winning the set 25-20.
Jones led Harvard with 15 kills in the match, while Rob Lothman tallied 27 assists. Rehkemper finished the match with eight kills, five service aces and four blocking assists. The Crimson finished the match with 42 kills and 12 aces.
Harvard will be back in action at the Malkin Athletic Center Friday night as Endicott visits Cambridge. Match time is slated for 7 p.m.

Two teen girls recount how they rushed to lift a 3,000-pound tractor off of their father who was pinned between the heavy, red machine and dirt. KGW's Pat Dooris reports.
A man who was pinned by his overturned tractor and losing breath with each scream says he was saved by his two teenage daughters, who found the strength to lift the ton-and-a-half machine.
Jeff Smith of Lebanon, Ore., was trying to pull a stump out of his garden last Monday when his muddy boot slipped off the clutch. The tractor flipped, and the steering wheel pinned his chest to the ground.
The daughters, 16-year-old Hannah and 14-year-old Haylee, heard him screaming and ran to help. They reportedly lifted the tractor enough to free his torso and give him room to breathe.
"It's amazing. You hear about this kind of stuff — this adrenaline rush, being able to pick cars up and slide people out," Smith told KGW, the NBC affiliate in Portland. "You never realize it's really there until you actually witness it."
The girls tried to dig their father's arm out but struck compacted dirt. Hannah got on her four-wheeler and found a neighbor, who brought his own tractor and used its shovel to finish freeing Smith, the Albany Democrat-Herald newspaper reported.
Jesse Skoubo / Mid-Valley Sunday
Jeff Smith sits astride his tractor alongside his daughters Hannah, 16, and Haylee, 14 at his Oregon home Saturday afternoon.
Smith was treated at the hospital for a broken wrist and other injuries. Hannah said she called her mother before the ambulance ride. The mother thought it was an April Fool's joke.
"I just can't believe it happened, honestly," Hannah told the newspaper. "We were supposed to go to a friend's house. I don't know why we didn't."
Since the ordeal, neighbors have finished tilling the garden, and the family has nicknamed the tractor Satan.

Start by melting some butter in a hot skillet to brown the butter.
Then I chopped up onion onion very finely with my Pampered Chef food chopper.
Add it to the browned butter and continue to brown till the onions begin to caramelize.
Then gather the rest of your ingredients.
I then stirred in 1 large tomato that I diced up. This is completely optional. If you don't like tomatoes, don't add them.
Then start loading up the goods. Start with deli chicken.
Then sprinkle with bacon.
Layer the cheese on top of the bacon and chicken.
Then top the cheese with the roll tops.
Cover with the extra aluminum foil and bake on 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes till entirely heated through.
They were awesome. Granted, the next time I make them I will add mustard because, well, I missed the mustard. But I love mustard.
- 1 stick butter
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 1/2 lb bacon fried and crumbled
- 9 oz. sliced deli chicken
- 1 pkg. King's Hawaiian rolls
- 1 Tbls. sesame seeds
- 1 large tomato diced
- 8 -12 oz. cheese provolone, swiss or monterey jack
- Melt butter and cook until light brown.
- Add onions to butter and cook until soft and lightly caramelized.
- Add the sesame seeds to the onion mixture.
- Stir in tomatoes if you are using them.
- Place bottom half of rolls in an aluminum lined 13 x 9 pan and spread onion mixture over them.
- Layer chicken, then crumbled bacon and cheese and then place top half of rolls on top.
- Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes until heated through.

X-SAR Geocoded Terrain Corrected Data Product (GTC, held at DLR/DFD)Entry ID: DFD-X-SAR.SAR.GTC
Abstract: Mission Objective:
Please see the relevant SIR-C/X-SAR Mission description contained in the
references and as Supplementary Information for "sensor"(X-SAR).
There were two Missions with the following time frame:
- Space Shuttle Mission STS-59:
Start_Date: 1994-04-09
Stop_Date: 1994-04-20
- Space ... Shuttle Mission STS-68:
Start_Date: 1994-09-30
Stop_Date: 1994-10-11
Worldwide coverage and map prints are available on World Wide Web (see below).
Data Set Content:
The GTC data set contains a X-SAR detected image, represented in a
uniform, preselected cartographic presentation. The image axes (i.e.
the row and column direction of the pixels) are parallel to the
cartographic coordinate system used.
The cartographic system used for worldwide reference is the Universal
Transversal Mercator System (UTM) .
The SAR inherent geometric terrain distortions, which are introduced to
SAR imagery due to actual terrain height and SAR-sidelooking geometry,
will be restituted to the best possible degree, to achieve map
reference even in regions of layover and shadow.
Of course, the terrain height restitution, which is basically a
resampling in range direction, can only be as exact as the Digital
Elevation Model (DEM). The planimetric accuracy will depend on DEM
accuracy. Accuracy for geocoded products means how well the geocoded
product fits the map reference. The availability of DEM data will be
the most restrictive impact on the generation of this product.
Intended Use:
Geocoded data will be available after availability of off-line
processed precision products and the required DEMs. Geocoded data sets
can be used by the scientific or commercial community which will refer
the actual SAR data to geographic/cartographic places. Terrain
corrected products are intended for applications where high absolute
and relative geometric accuracy is required, even in hilly terrain.
Input Data:
- The standard MGD product formatted in GEOS, including parameters used
for the slant to ground range projection.
- Orbit data from the PATH tape annotated in the MGD product
- Digital Elevation Model
- Map projection constants to be applied
Processing Algorithm:
The geocoding is based on the same data as for ellipsoid correction
geocoding except:
- a precise digital elevation model (DEM) is used to set up the
radargrammetric mapping function for each point on earth
- azimuth timing information within the processor (i.e. The range
line must be annotated with the zero-Doppler orbit time.)
- the earth to image is computed for each point rather than for only
a grid - no oversampling is applied
- no radiometric correction is done due to terrain induced radiometric
distortions (layover, foreshortening, shadow)
A special GIM product will be available for follow-on investigations
on this topic
- some automatic/interactive tiepointing will be performed to enhance
the overall geometric accuracy of the product
Product Parameter:
Equivalent no. of looks
in azimuth 1 .5 - 2.5
in range 1 - 3
Geometric representation cartographic UTM
ellipsoid use WG584
Data representation detected, amplitude
pixel quantization 16 bit, signed integer
Ground area covered

Number of pixels
northing 8000 ... 8960
easting 4000 ... 8960
Image data volume up to 160 MBytes
Access to the data:
On-line access to data and information as well to digital quicklook DQL
or browse data is provided by the Intelligent Satellite Data Information
System (ISIS), developed by DLR as a client / server configuration.
It represents the interface of DLR-DFD to users, providing easy access to
catalogue-, inventory-, browse- and general textual information.
ISIS can be accessed with World Wide Web by URL:
and clicking on `Information Services (ISIS)` or `Accessing ISIS` (telnet).
ISIS can also be accessed by telnet directly:

Q: How does a bullfrog tadpole grow into a frog?
Dan – Clovis, CA
A: What would a pond or lake be without bullfrogs? These croaking amphibians – which can grow to 8 inches in length and weigh up to 1½ pounds – reside near water sources, like lakes, ponds, rivers and bogs. The brown-green frogs with the scientific name Lithobates catesbeianus prefer warm, still, shallow water.
Through their seven- to nine-year life cycle, bullfrogs pass through several stages of development. Ever wonder what happens during those stages? Keep reading, because here's what you need to know.
From Eggs to Tadpoles
Bullfrog breeding, which happens externally, takes place in May to July in the north and from February to October in the south. The female adult bullfrog, which sports a white throat during the mating season, deposits as many as 20,000 eggs in a foamy film in quiet, protected waters; the male, which has a yellow throat during mating rituals, then fertilizes them. Four days later, tiny tadpoles emerge. The little guys are able to fend for themselves right away and will stay in their tadpole stage for almost three years before transforming into adults.
Pollywog Waltz
While they're in their tadpole – or pollywog – stage, the tiny gilled critters live exclusively in the water and nibble on water plants for nourishment. At first, their bodies, which can measure up to 6¾ inches long, are long and narrow and include a tail where they store fat when food is in short supply during the winter months. After about one year, the tadpoles will start to grow legs. Shortly thereafter, they grow arms. And then, their tails shorten, they develop lungs, and their gills disappear. The tadpoles have transformed into froglets.
From Aquatic to Terrestrial
After that two- to three-year tadpole-to-frog developmental period, the bullfrog 's final growth stage is when the froglet hops from the water to dry land. Thanks to its fully developed lungs, the now-carnivorous and aggressive frog can now breathe oxygen, and that gives it the freedom to emerge from its watery first home to the shore where it can hunt for anything that will fit in its mouth, including insects, small mammals, birds, fish and other frogs. The adult bullfrog rests by day, and defends and hunts its 3 to 25 meters of shoreline territory by night.
Finally, after three to five long years of growth and development, the tadpole has become an adult bullfrog and reached sexual maturity – and the life cycle begins again. Bullfrogs in the wild live to about 7 to 9 years old; in captivity, they can live as long as 13 years.
Now the next time you hear your bullfrogs croaking, you'll have a new appreciation for them!

According to the "Lonely Planet" travel guide, the capital, Podgorica, is "Montenegro's most unattractive spot". Economic growth and investment, however, are beginning to transform Europe's second-youngest capital. A new "Millennium bridge" over the Moraca River was opened in 2005. A new airport followed in May 2006. Numerous modern apartment buildings have sprung up, transforming the city's socialist-era suburbs. A pedestrian area was recently constructed, and the main square has been completely redesigned. Podgorica is now home to 144,000 people.
Situated at the confluence of the Ribnica and Moraca rivers on the Zeta plain, Podgorica was a lively trading centre already in the Middle Ages. In 1474, it was occupied by the Ottomans, who turned it into their main bastion against the Montenegrin tribes. The city was incorporated into Montenegro only in 1878, following the Congress of Berlin. Heavy bombing during the Second World War almost levelled Podgorica, home to about 13,000 inhabitants at the time. After the war, Podgorica became the capital of the Socialist Republic of Montenegro, the smallest of the six republics making up Tito's Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. In 1946, the city was renamed "Titograd" after the Yugoslav leader, a name it kept until 1992. (In international aviation, the code for Podgorica's airport is still "TGD").
Socialism gave the city not only a new name, but also a slew of construction sites and a demographic boom. New apartment buildings appeared, as did new administrative offices, and – as of the early 1970s – a new university. A large aluminium plant at the outskirts of the town became Montenegro's biggest company, employing some 4,000 workers at its height.
While numerous other socialist companies ceased to operate in the 1990s, the aluminium plant was privatised and today remains Montenegro's biggest company. Another huge company that has survived is "AD Plantaze", a sprawling vineyard, stretching from the suburbs of Podgorica to Lake Shkodra, which forms the border to Albania.
Podgorica's economy is not driven by industry, however, but by services. The city is undisputedly Montenegro's administrative, financial, trading, university and media centre.

Striving to provide the best care possible
Via Christi's number one goal is to continuously improve the quality and safety of the care we provide to our patients and senior village residents. We are committed to delivering the highest-quality, safest care to every patient, every time, in the clinical setting most appropriate to their needs.
Under the leadership of doctors, nurses and other clinicians, Via Christi is taking a disciplined, rigorous approach to improving patient safety as we become a high-reliability organization. The physician-led Clinical Practice Committee governs all decisions about patient care throughout Via Christi. Our physician and administrative leaders, along with our nurses and other clinicians, hold daily safety huddles seven days a week on every patient-care unit throughout Via Christi to review and address any safety issues identified during the past 24 hours, and to plan for the next 24 hours.
To achieve continuous quality improvement, Via Christi also has:
- Enhanced our physician-led Center for Clinical Excellence with the expertise of industrial engineers and quality improvement black belts from the aviation industry in Wichita.
- Provided training in the principles of high-reliability science and Six Sigma quality-improvement to our 10,000 employees.
- Established Performance Improvement Teams to help us make measurable quality advances in such areas as improving surgical care, reducing hospital-acquired infections and reducing preventable hospital readmissions.
- Implemented systematic approaches to improving hand hygiene practices to prevent the spread of hospital-acquired infections, preventing patient falls and improving the accuracy of laboratory specimen-labeling.
Via Christi's leadership in patient safety and high reliability also is benefiting all of Wichita and Kansas.
Via Christi, the Medical Society of Sedgwick County, Wesley Medical Center, Kansas Heart Hospital, Kansas Surgery and Recovery Center and other healthcare organizations have worked together to create a standard safety time-out protocol before surgeries and other invasive procedures.
Our collective goal is to make Wichita the safest place in the nation to undergo surgery and other procedures. Studies have shown that a standard and effective surgical time-out can reduce mortality by 44 percent by preventing errors such as wrong-site surgeries and operating room fires.
Via Christi's focus on our quality improvement is continuous and directed toward achieving a goal of zero serious safety events by the year 2020.

Days before a pivotal primary, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney says he would raise the eligibility age forMedicare as he looks to show he's willing to curtail government benefits in the long run.
It was a new detail in a major campaign speech that was otherwise short on new policy ideas. Romney delivered the speech Friday to the Detroit Economic Club at the cavernous and largely empty Ford Field, where the Detroit Lions play football.
"With these commonsense changes, we will have fixed our balance sheet," Romney told the crowd of about 1,200, who occupied just a portion of the field itself as tens of thousands of stadium seats sat empty.
Romney walked through much of the economic plan he had already unveiled Wednesday ahead of a GOP debate. He's proposing 20 percent cuts to the marginal individual tax rates. He also wants to lower corporate tax rates to 25 percent from 35 percent. On Friday, he said he wants to raise Medicare eligibility age by one month per year and eventually tie the age to life expectancy.
Romney's campaign rests on a foundation of economic know-how, and he presents himself as a lifelong businessman who has the skills to put an end to the worst recession in decades.
With the speech, he was looking to draw contrasts with Democratic President Barack Obama. Romney paints Obama as looking to create an "entitlement society" where the former Massachusetts governor claims he wants an "opportunity society."
But Romney is facing an unexpectedly tough challenge from GOP rival Rick Santorum in his native state of Michigan. Santorum won contests in Colorado, Missouri and Minnesota on Feb. 8 and rose in polls afterward.
Santorum has been emphasizing his blue collar roots and looking to appeal to tea party and socially conservative voters in Michigan. Opinion polls show voters aligned with the tea party are more likely to support Santorum than Romney.
Romney has tried to cut into that support, courting tea party voters in suburban Detroit on Thursday night with an indictment of Obama as a man who is "comfortable living with trillion-dollar deficits." The former Massachusetts governor went out of his way to praise them as part of his courtship.
"I appreciate the work you're doing. I appreciate your willingness to get out of your homes," he said Thursday.
But his speech Friday served to highlight his support among wealthy voters -- and his family's own personal wealth. The crowd was formally dressed and offered polite applause as Romney said he planned to lower all tax rates but make sure the wealthiest Americans still shoulder the same percentage of the burden.
When he referenced "higher income" taxpayers, he pointed at the crowd.
Then, as he closed his remarks, he pointed out that his wife, Ann, drives "a couple of Cadillacs." Ann Romney has two Cadillac SRX cars, one in Massachusetts and one in California, a spokesman said.
In his speech, Romney stayed entirely away from the social issues that have helped propel Santorum's rise.
Backed by ads attacking Santorum from his own campaign and from Restore Our Future, an outside group that supports him, Romney has made evident gains in the past week in Michigan. But numerous polls show that Republicans who say they support one of the candidates could change their mind, and surveys also suggest that the state is divided along geographical regions.
Romney outruns Santorum in the Detroit area, but the situation is reversed in much of the rest of the state, in some surveys.
That creates the possibility of something of a split decision next Tuesday in which Romney wins the popular vote but Santorum emerges with more delegates. Most of them are awarded, two at a time, to the winner of each of the state's 14 congressional districts.
In all there are 30 delegates at stake in Michigan next week, and 29 in winner-take-all Arizona.

A BAND originally from Worcester are proving to be a smash hit with the world's longest-running music weekly.
The meteoric rise of Peace has been capped by three of their songs being selected in NME's top 50 tracks of 2012.
Now 60 years old, the magazine tipped the group as one of 100 new bands to look out for at the beginning of the year and chose Follow Baby, Bloodshake and California Daze to be worthy of their end-of-year countdown.
Vocalist and guitarist Harry Koisser said: "All boasting aside, it's kind of weird and amazing.
"At the beginning of the year we were an unsigned band with one demo and now we've got three songs in the NME songs of 2012 and confirmed for the awards tour.
"There's still a long way to go but its kind of marvellous, right?"
Formerly known as November and The Criminal, the four-piece, who are completed by Sam Koisser, Doug Castle and Dom Boyce, are now based in Birmingham and signed with Columbia Records earlier in the year.
Before venturing to the second city, Doug and Dom attended Bishop Perowne CE College, while Sam and Harry went to Droitwich Spa High School and Nunnery Wood High School respectively.
They have also been chosen to open the NME Awards Tour 2013, following in the footsteps of the likes of Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys and Florence + The Machine.
Joining Django Django, Miles Kane and Palma Violets on a 13-date tour, they will play at Nottingham's Rock City, the Great Hall in Cardiff and Brixton Academy in London, among other venues, in February. To prove they really are the magazine's new darlings, they also head up the publication's New Year's Eve party at Koko in Camden, London.
Prior to that, they have a whistlestop world tour, visiting Milan, Los Angeles, New York and their adopted hometown of Birmingham. Their new single, Wraith, is released next month. For more information, go to peaceforeverever.co.uk.

For Everett Golson of Notre Dame, little things play big
SOUTH BEND, Ind. - Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly believes Everett Golson is ready for what awaits him at Southern California.
He believes the 6-0, 185-pound sophomore quarterback who did not play as a freshman is ready. Ready for the pressure of leading the Fighting Irish (11-0) on the field ranked No. 1 for the first time in 19 years. Ready for a rivalry game that has been dominated over the past decade by USC (7-4). Ready to help Notre Dame advance to the BCS title game with a win.
Kelly said he bases that opinion by the maturity Golson has shown as he's improved throughout the season, playing in tough venues such as Michigan State and Oklahoma and rallying the Irish from a two-touchdown deficit in the fourth quarter against Pittsburgh to a triple-overtime victory.
"All of those things go into Saturday and all of those will be positives for him going into the USC game," Kelly said.
Golson said he is feeling more comfortable because of all he's learned and he has learned to manage the clock better so he doesn't have to rush each play.
"I think I've progressed a lot," he said.
Golson keeps doing a lot more of the little things right and it's leading to more big plays for the Irish. He waited until the last second to pitch the ball to set up Cierre Wood's 68-yard touchdown run on the fourth play against Wake Forest. He had TD passes of 50 and 34 yards against Wake Forest, and the second came after a nice pump fake.
Slowly, Golson has turned what had been an at-best average offense into one that opponents are increasingly having trouble slowing down.
"He's a guy that makes explosive plays," Kelly said. "He's got the ability to throw it. He can run the football. He's elusive. I think we're seeing a guy that's growing each and every week."
Through Notre Dame's first five games, Golson was 67-of-111 passing for 827 yards with three touchdown passes and three interceptions, with a pass efficiency rating of 126.46. He also had run for 40 yards on 27 carries.
In the last five games, after sitting out against BYU with a concussion, Golson is 84-of-145 passing for 1,091 yards with eight touchdowns and two interceptions, a pass efficiency rating completion rate of 136.58. He's also run for 202 yards on 53 carries -- and that includes just one carry in the win over Wake Forest.
The Irish have improved during that span from 71st in the nation in total offense, averaging 398.4 yards a game, to 50th, averaging 419.7.
"He's definitely on the right path to providing us the offense that we need," Kelly said.
The coach admitted he hasn't run Golson as much as he'd like because he still needs to get stronger.
"He still needs another coat of armor on him. He needs another year in the weight room and he needs to get thicker. We want to be judicious when we run him," Kelly said. "We've got to run him. He's better when he runs, physically and mentally. He loves to run."
Golson is the fourth quarterback in Notre Dame history to start his career with nine straight victories. He would have 10 straight if he hadn't been benched the first three plays against Miami. The school record is 11 wins by Bob Williams during the national championship season of 1949.
Last week, the focus was working on footwork and communicating with teammates, calling plays and then checking into different plays. Kelly had Golson watching film of Peyton Manning and other quarterbacks.
"Manning is probably one of the great communicators, his ability to get into plays and check and do it efficiently," Kelly said. "We try to use some of the greats to show some things that could be helpful."
As for the pressure of playing at USC with Notre Dame eager to win its first national championship since 1988, Golson said he's taking the same attitude he's taken all year of focusing on the opponent and not worrying about the big picture.
"As far as I'm concerned, my head is down, my foot's on the gas, I'm never going to look up and lose focus," he said. "My thing is just keep your head down and keep pushing it."

text: Outside the thousands of mosques start to sing. The first voices come from the distance in a wave that swells until the houses of prayer and mosques in my neighborhood join in, too. But as the voices still in the distance creep over the roofs along the apartment buildings in my direction, they make the size of the city perceptible for a split second, the way an echoing voice would do in a room without light.
