Talk:Tyranitar (Pokémon)
|Due to special coding in place in the article, the artwork featured on this article will change every year on November 21 and October 15 in celebration of the releases of Gold and Silver in Japan, and Gold and Silver in the United States. This will only affect the artwork shown in the infobox. This changes every year, so when the time comes, click here to return to the page and change the display.
I edited this page because it appeared biased. Tyranitar are not evil Pokémon. As far as I know, the only truly evil Pokémon is Spiritomb. - unsigned comment from Ettina (talk • contribs)
3D Shiny?
Kind of old but should it be noted that in both Pokemon Stadium games that Tyranitar's shiny status in them is pink? ShinyGlaceon 19:45, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Physiology Edit
I edited the physiology to change "roof and bottom of the mouth" to "upper and lower jaws" because it sounded rather awkward before.--Phantomjunkie 06:37, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
Special Abilities
Under the description, it says, "Like other Dragon Pokemon..." Is this imply it is dragon-like or Dragon-type? If it is the latter, should it be changed? Sparky 14:20, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
I think someone mentioned this on Metagross's talk page but doesn't Tyranitar, along with Dragonite, have a rare chance of appearing in the wild in B/W by shaking grass spots? Serebii says Route 15 but can anyone else confirm this? Shiramu Kuromu 00:00, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
Black and White Locations
I have Pokemon White version and I caught a Tyranitar at lvl 50 in Route 15, where all those hiker people are and you have to use strength on the boulders. It's hard to find though, it's rare. There are also wild Pupitars too, they're slightly rare.
Nyororas 07:17, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
What looks like a pupitar is on tyrantar's chest.
Should we include this in physiology? Nightgrey 03:51, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
Highest Base stat Total
Shouldn't it be noted that he has the highest base stat total of all Rock type, Despite that he is not a legendary Pokmeon Also the same for Dark types along with Hydreigon. --$%$HYDRA3DRAGON$%$ (talk) 06:26, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
Tyranitar's armor
Have any of you guys notice that Tyranitar's upper armor is not connected to the lower armor.Gelato Gelato (talk) 13:00, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
Origin specificity?
Shouldn't it be mentioned more specifically that Tyranitar is also based off a Tyrannosaurus like Godzilla was? Or is that a bit much? Just wondering since the way it was written seems fine, but someone said in an edit about the whole T-rex thing. I don't know. :/ ----NateVirus(Talk|Contributions) 19:40, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
Isn't the reference to Godzilla not supposed to be there unless explicitly stated? Volcarona, Hydreigon, and the Nidos have the're pop culture character referennces removed. Jetison (talk) 19:40, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
Ability Gen VI
In my version of Y I have a tyranitar which seems to have the wrong ability as it has Unnerve as its main ability despite this page saying its hidden ability should be unnerve and its main sand stream (which mine doesn't have) Is this a change in Gen VI and if so does the page need editing? Cjmorgs (talk) 17:36, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
- How can you tell that Unnerve is its main Ability??--電禅Den Zen 17:41, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
a) It doesn't have sand stream and b) unnerve is the actual ability displayed on its summary Cjmorgs (talk) 19:20, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
- A Hidden Ability is just an ability that you need to get in a special way (for example Dream World/Hidden Grottos in Generation V and Friend Safari and Horde Encounters in Gen VI). They are not actually hidden on each particular Pokémon. --It's Funktastic~!話してください 19:25, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
I thought if a pokémon had its hidden ability it had two abilities. Am I wrong? Cjmorgs (talk) 19:29, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
- You don't seem to know how the Ability system works. A Pokémon with its Hidden Ability can never use its normal Ability/ies and vice versa.--電禅Den Zen 19:31, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
I apologise profusely! I haven't had any of the Gen V games so I skipped over the hidden abilities when they were first introduced. I thought the hidden ability was extra if obtained and the pokémon would have two. Sorry for any confusion guys :/ Cjmorgs (talk) 19:33, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
Sp.Def Calculation
I thought I had figured out a awesome use for Assault Vest with Tyranitar, but it seems the guys over at smogon beat me to it.
Anyways, I know a Tyanitar with fully invested Sp.Def and a Sp.Def increasing nature gives it a Sp.Def of 328. The vest gives Tyranitar 50% more Sp.Def which would be 492. Even without the vest, its ability to summon a sandstorm, and then sandstorm's effect of increasing the Sp.Def of Rock type Pokémon by 50% by itself. With a combination of both, right out of the starting gate Tyranitar gets 100% more Sp.Def
The thing is, everywhere I look I see 738 as the magical number, but shouldn't it be 656? 328 + 100% (or 328 x 1.5) should = 656 the only way you can get 738 is if you take 328 x 1.5 which = 492, and then you timed 492 by 1.5 which would = 738.
I'm not the best at math, but which is it? 656 or 738? Yamitora1 (talk) 08:20, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
- Well, I'm a math major and it's 738 (328 × 1.5 × 1.5). It's very simple; AV multiplies it by 1.5 and then sandstorm multiplies it by 1.5. All stat boost combinations, such as Huge Power + Choice Band and Unburden + Agility, are calculated this way.--電禅Den Zen 08:57, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
- In other words, Yamitora, both boosts don't give 50% of the original. The second boost gives 50% of the already-boosted stat. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 16:34, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
Seven Starting Moves
As far as I know, Pokemon can only learn 4 moves at a time. I don't own any of the games, so I cannot determine what ttar actually starts with. Anyone mind changing this? Smurfton (talk) 21:18, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
- If a Pokémon has more than 4 starting moves, then you'll have to use a heart scale(or tiny mushroom in LG/FR) to learn that move. What it really means is that while the Pokémon CAN learn the move, it won't have the move without outside intervention on the trainers part. Does that help clear things up for you? (Arcalargo (talk) 12:56, 7 December 2014 (UTC))
Name origin
I know that Larvitar comes from larva, Pupitar comes from Pupa and Tyranitar comes from Tyrannosaurus, but what does the "tar" mean? Christian (talk) 23:35, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
Possibly tarasque. Look it up. MMMMMMMMMMMMM (talk) 13:07, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
Event Moves
I feel that not only this page, but other pages should be edited to have learnsets on moves only learned through events. Tyranitar learns Seismic Toss from a past event, but I don't know how to create learnsets when editing. Bulldogs1234869 9:45, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
Godzilla Mentions/Origin? Is Tyranitar an exception? Or is this like Volcarona, Hydreigon, and the "Nidos"?
Okay, I need to understand what's supposed to be going on here. Seeing that this kind of stuff was supposed to be removed, much like the Mothra references for Volcarona and the Ghidorah references for Hydreigon, should we even be keeping the Godzilla/Anguirus mentions in Tyranitar's origins and name origins? Look, I can understand where some people get the idea that Tyranitar is a Godzilla reference or that it is somehow based off of Godzilla in their minds (though, honestly, I think it is more of a general reference to the Kaiju genre as a whole rather than just Godzilla specifically; but I digress, as that isn't even the point here), but has there been any actual confirmation from Game Freak or any creditable source? I'm asking this for the sake of consistency, seeing that it has even been stated on this very talk page that this kind of stuff has to be removed. Is Tyranitar the exception to this rule or not? ----NateVirus(Talk|Contributions) 18:18, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

So I finally forced myself to make a decision and buy a clutch/flywheel setup.
The stock flywheel had to go for multiple reasons:
Its actually counterbalanced to offset the internals of the ICE motor. (If spun by itself it would be horribly out of balance)
It attaches to the crank with a giant keyed shaft and must use a giant 2 1/8″ nut to mount. (No bolt pattern like 99.9% of other vehicles use)
Its really… really heavy
Now the flywheel was an area I could have cheaped out on, but I wanted to go with a good brand on this one to reduce the rotational inertia, ensure it was perfectly balanced even to 10,000rpm, and the simple fact that I really don't want to have to pull it all back apart at some later point to replace it.
The stock clutch also had to go:
- With the pure increase in torque from 159 lb-ft to 221 lb-ft (~40% increase) the clutch simply needs to have more gripping strength
- There is a huge reduction in rotational inertia from the ICE motor to the EV motor so the system should be able to react and climb rpm much faster and this alone could slip the stock clutch
- Combined with the reduced rotational inertia, the electric motor has the ability to ramp in massive amounts of torque almost instantly, and this would surely cause a stock clutch to slip
I ended up going with a stage 3 clutch and HD pressure plate. The stage 3 clutch uses a 6 puck design to increase the clamping pressure (psi) on the clutch surface. This upgrade also does away with the standard organic clutch material and replaces it with copper ceramic pucks. This is usually used exclusively in race applications because it results in a very short and aggressive clutch engagement. Luckily for me though, I could care less how harsh the clutch engagement is because I don't need to slip the clutch at launch. The clutch will only be needed for slight rpm matching between gear shifts, and a mechanical fuse in the system incase an electronic bug/failure causes an undesired driveline torque.
And now once I have the clutch and flywheel in hand I can start to measure and calculate the offset distance needed for the adapter to mount the motor casing to the transmission bell housing. This distance will be absolutely critical because if I get it wrong the clutch will either permanently slip, or never fully disengage. The current plan is to rapid prototype the adapter on my new 3D printer and make sure I have it right before I send it off to machining.

Frankly, we're too lazy to heat our cold cuts unless we really, really want a hot sandwich. Then again, Gut Check doesn't fall into the at-risk demographic. What about you? Would you heat up your cold cuts just because some government scaremonger tells you to do so? Take our poll!The recommendation is because of a food-borne bug by the name of listeria monocytogenes which causes an uncommon but potentially fatal disease called listeriosis. About 85% of cases are linked to cold cuts or deli meats, says Mike Doyle, a professor of food microbiology at the University of Georgia.

The hustle and bustle of Merkato, Ethiopia's largest market found in its capital city of Addis Ababa, is the dominant theme of artist Fasil Assefa Beyene's paintings. His work is a vibrant manifestation of Ethiopian pop art. Anyone who has ever visited Merkato or ever been to Addis Ababa will enjoy an amused chuckle from Fasil's artistic definition of the urban mania that is peculiar to Merkato. He captures the miraculously functioning market in all its chaotic glory - street vendors settled on their spots, patrons bartering, taxis, buses, traffic collusions, policemen intervening to settle disputes; people weaving in and out of the shops and through cars to create the fabric and essence of his art - his subjects alive with their wide almond-shaped eyes mimicking the eyes in ancient Ethiopian iconography. His work is a tongue-in-cheek conversation of not only Markato, but the market and transportation hustle and vibrancy of Addis Ababa - the capital city of Ethiopia - a city undergoing glorious growing pains.
Born in 1984 in Addis Ababa - near Markato, Fasil graduated from Master Fine Art and Vocational Training Center in 2002 in drawing and painting; he then went on to study in the Addis Ababa University School of Fine Arts and design from 2005-2007; after which he majored in painting at Entoto Technical and vocational Training College of Fine Art (2008-2011). Throughout the years, Fasil has shown his art in numerous exhibitions.
Fasil has been recognized as an Ambassador for Peace by the Universal Peace Foundation, and Inter Religious and International Federation for World Peace. He is now a full-time studio Artist.

Profitability can be challenging sometimes, as we all know. I recently met with a group of dealers that, in varying degrees, all shared the same concern: make a profit, more profit and keep that roll going!
But at the core of our discussion, over coffee, the issue really came down to a couple of points: more customers and more quality pre-owned vehicles. At which point, I sipped my coffee, and found that reality a bit funny. In the age of technology, we are still trying to find higher quality pre-owned vehicles, and more of them.
I am fairly confident that during the time spent drinking our coffee, yet another physical or online auction has opened up somewhere with yet some more inventory. Maybe if we just can find the right inventory, profitability would rise, as well.
Or is it that the cost is just too high? Auction prices are climbing. There are the hard costs associated with getting vehicles to the physical auction. The time spent online making sure pricing is in line with the market is costly. But are we collectively missing something here?
Recently I wrote about a new type of auction that is springing up, one that possibly addresses these issues from another perspective. They are the dealer-to-dealer subscription-based auctions.
Now before you walk away from your cup of coffee and this column, just read the next paragraph. If you're still not satisfied, come have lunch on me at NADA in Orlando, where I will be presenting and discussing this new concept (seriously, email me if you want in on lunch).
Here is how this basically lays out. The seller can post vehicles with no sale fee, and the buyer can buy cars with no buy fee. Now what does that really mean?
A typical auction transaction costs the buying dealer about $281. Through sites like DealerMatch, AutoFlipr, Dealers Link, Dealers Forum and others, that expense is eliminated.
In reality, you have more bidding room; very nice, but as we have all said to our kids, "We're not there yet!"
Add to this equation: that the seller for the vehicle has not had to pay the average sale fee of $193, the average transportation cost of $42 as well as other costs like gas and the auction re-wash of $28.
The seller now has $253 in price flexibility and has not touched the vehicle. Wholesale accountability has been preserved, and some of these sources have floor plan options, that dealers want these days.
In the end, these channels can provide, on average, $550 of additional deal-making flexibility between buyer and seller.
To this I ask, how often have we missed purchasing a vehicle we want for $500–600? How many vehicles would we have wholesaled, and faster, if we were $500–600 closer on the bid amount?
How much would your dealership add to the bottom line through faster wholesale purchasing and selling? You won't know until you try it, and really, what do you have to lose?
Was this worth having coffee and discussing? I don't know about you, but for these dealers, it is not often that they have a cup of coffee and discover they could instantly improve their bottom line profit. 'Til next month, see you in the lens of the lanes.

Three Play
Heaving was the room in which the two of us entered and where our adventure began. The vibrating hum of excitement was all around us as play unfolded this midsummer night.
We were joined by another who's eyes had locked with mine. The draw tantalisingly strong. In a ritual of attraction I watched with carnal delight and craving as impulsive lips kissed before me. Then I felt his hand as it moved over my lower back, to settle at my waist. I felt his heat as he pulled me into him while my mouth fell upon hers with beautiful raw hunger.
In the neighbouring room we stood; kisses swept between us, our bodies close. I swayed, giddy with anticipation, as he knelt down before me. Between my thighs, his tongue and my wetness collided while her soft lips met with mine and more sublime kisses were shared. A powerful sensation of desirous intensity took hold. My mouth on her neck biting playfully and passionately as I was enraptured by him.
I felt the eruption building, my desire thrusting around inside, longing to be released. Yet, so deliciously precious was the moment; it was to be savored. Memorized. Etched in every pore, every recess of my awoken and aroused body. I held on to it.
My head was in a spin in this timeless…erotic & utopic wonderland. It was breathtaking. Desire never felt or tasted so divine and natural. My fingers and lips on her breasts, teasing her hardened nipples and he, behind me, caressing me as I kissed and caressed her.
Hours passed as we indulgently played…sensually stroked…tasted…kissed…smiled and giggled…teased and shuddered… over and over. Delighting all the while in the erotic intoxication we were all experiencing and in the adventure that had unfolded. Our naked bodies stayed entwined as our tongues teased and our mouths whispered moans in dulcet tones until the break of dawn.

Thrive Content Builder Review: A Super Powerful Site Builder
We all know how powerful and dynamic WordPress is. But there is one thing that most WordPress users have complaint time and again. Yes, it's the tiresome need to switch between the edit and the preview mode every time, even the slightest of change is made.
No matter how good you are at designing or coding, this gap between the edit and the preview mode acts as a major hindrance to your creation.
The Renowned developer, Shane Melaugh contemplated on the matter intently and came up with the brilliant Thrive Content Builder, that can very conveniently knit the gap between your WP edit and preview mode.
So now, with Thrive, you can edit and create to your heart's content without having to frivolously switch between your tabs. This plugin has brought about a huge transformation in the way you can work with the WordPress Visual editor.
In this article, we will review this popular front-end editor plugin called the Thrive Content Builder. We will try to give you a detailed in-depth about What this plugin is, How it works and How you can set it up on your WordPress site to easily manage your site's content and looks.
Before we move forward, let's have a look at what the Thrive Content Builder is.

With this awesome plugin, editing and creating pages becomes a much simpler task. You can create all your posts and pages with just a few clicks and of course a little typing.
It removes all complexities of the default WordPress Editor and initiates an effectively user-friendly experience. It's like working in a real time editor and experiencing a striking What You See Is What You Get feel as you create your content.
Installing Thrive Content Builder in WordPress
Installing Thrive is quite easy. If you have installed any plugin in your WordPress site before, installing Thrive should not be any difficult.
To start with you first need to download the Thrive plugin.zip folder. Once that is done and saved on your desktop go to your WordPress Dashboard.
Click on Plugins and select the Add New button. Now choose your file location, open the file and click Install. Wait till it is done and then click on Activate Plugin option.
Then go to Settings on your Dashboard and select Thrive Content Builder. A pop-up box will appear asking for your email address and your license key.
Fill in these two fields and click on Activate License. There you go. You are all set to start experiencing the difference by working with Thrive.
Creating Posts with Thrive
In this section, I will tell you how to use Thrive Content Builder upon your WordPress site. So from now on, get ready to face a completely different experience when it comes to creating your pages and posts in WordPress.
Generally, when we work with WordPress the conventional practice is to draft our content at the back-end of our page and then save the draft. If you want to see how your content will look like once it is published you need to click on the Preview button on your Dashboard. This will open a new tab where you can see how the actual content will look like.
This complicated process of going back and forth from one page to another repeats every time you do the slightest of editing.
Thrive Content Builder, however is entirely different. Let's get started with Thrive by first creating a brand New Post. Here you will see the option 'Edit with Thrive Content Builder' right below your Post title box. Click on this option.
This will open a new tab with a visual representation of what you are creating. So what you have here is what your page would look like once you are done editing.
You will see an additional panel on the right side of your page. This panel will display all the editing options. On the top of this panel, you will have important options like Save, Preview, Undo, Redo and HTML, Templates and of course the Thrive Landing Pages.
It also contains a list of Drag and Drop options like WordPress Content, images, buttons, credit card options etc that you might want to use while you create your page.
At the bottom, there is an option called the 'Style Family'. With this option, you can choose from the three styling options offered. Flat, Classy and Minimalistic. With these, you can select a fancy theme for your page and style them accordingly.
You can flip this panel to your left if you think that can be more convenient to you.
Now, if you look just above your text area, you will find the editing menu, offering you all the basic styling elements like Bold, Italic, Underline, Alignment options and so on. This box will appear only when are typing in your content area.
So when you start entering your content in the text area you can simply drag an option and drop the elements from the panel on your right based on what you want your page to have.
For example, if you want your texts in a column you can simply click on the Column layout option available and drag and drop it in the text area. Now you can continue typing back in the text area where the column layout will be displayed.
Once all the typing is completed you can go ahead and play with your creative abilities. Just click on the column and select the color, font, and size you want. You can even add other essential elements like images, buttons and so on by simply dragging them from the panel on your right.
You also have the liberty to position your cursor anywhere and edit anything you want to on your text area.
You can even duplicate the entire column and paste it in a new location. Once you are done typing and adding your images and other elements, you need to just click on the Save Changes option.
Now go and refresh your page and see the difference. Looks exactly the same? Of course, it does. Are you using Thrive remember?

You can even edit each of these Templates using the Builder Tool. These Templates can be filtered according to the attributes.

Sometimes you may want to create a full-width Landing Page with no sidebars. For that make sure you use a full-width template.
Adding Opt-In Form
Thrive is known for creating conversion focused WordPress products. Their products can help you to increase the revenue of your site by engaging your visitors and leading them to buy your products or to subscribe to your email form so that you can promote your services.

The Thrive Content Builder offers you an extremely easy option to have a lead generation form in any of the post or pages. You can improve the conversion and make most of your visitor your permanent subscriber by offering them specific deals in pages.
You can also fully customize the look and feel of the subscription form and play around with the placement of the form to make the most out of it.
Publishing your Post with Thrive

This option is available on the builder panel of your Thrive Content Builder. If you click on this button, you will be able to view your post without the builder menus as it will be visible to your readers.
Now if you are satisfied with how your post looks, you can save your content and click on the publish button. And there you are, the page or post is ready for public views.

Chaps.Not easy to explain.From say the Conventional Frequencies page.
If you make changes, are these changes stored.ie to CDAT or other folder of choice.
Or is do you need to store the changed data to File > Copy current data to V-Scanner folder.Before quiting the program.
It seems you can make changes then download/store to the SD card but is the same copy maintained in the V folder without manual storing.
I do make backup's just to be safe.Can't see this info in the help file or Mark's easy guide.
Thanks Keith G8IXN

King's Athletics becomes member of NCCAA and USCAA
Financial District, NEW YORK– Due to the expanding student body and increased student involvement, the college's athletic program has gained official membership in two leagues: the NCCAA and USCAA.
King's founded the NCCAA (National Christian College Athletic Association) when the campus was located at Briarcliff Manor. Sports Information Director Grant Olson ('14) described both the NCCAA and the USCAA (United States Collegiate Athletic Association) as being comparable to NCAA Division III league.
Current King's varsity sports include basketball (men's and women's), soccer (men's and women's), volleyball (women's) and baseball (men's).
Golf, currently a club sport, will gain varsity standing sometime this calendar year, according to Olson.
There are no plans to expand the program to offer more sports, but instead the department is developing the varsity sports that are available.
TKC's emphasis on sports teams this fall has paid off. Currently, the volleyball team and men's soccer team have winning records.
Regarding the possibility of ultimate Frisbee becoming a club sport due to the high student participation, Olson said the students would have to approach the Athletic Department with their interest.
Upcoming athletic events include:
- 9/21: Women's soccer vs. CCNY
- 9/22: Men's soccer vs. Briarcliffe College at Randall's Island Field 72
- 9/22: Women's volleyball vs. Northern Essex CC and Nashua CC in New Hampshire
- 9/23: Men's baseball scrimmage vs. NYU in Queens
There will also be numerous games Homecoming weekend including the student vs. alumni basketball game, women's volleyball vs. Pratt Sept. 27 (at Pratt) and men's soccer vs. Cooper Union (at Riverbank State Park) Sept. 28.
For more information, including schedules, visit www.tkc.edu/athletics, or download the free mobile app available for Apple and Android phones. For more information regarding golf, contact Sean Spurlock at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Obama administration on Tuesday altered its account of the killing of Osama bin Laden, making clear for the first time that the Al Qaeda leader was unarmed when he was confronted and shot dead by US commandos.
White House Spokesman Jay Carney released a revised narrative of the 40-minute secret operation. He said the US Navy SEALs encountered hostile fire almost immediately upon arriving at bin Laden's compound in Pakistan. They returned fire, killing two men and a woman who was apparently caught in the crossfire.
During a room-to-room search of the main house, US forces encountered bin Laden in an upstairs bedroom. When the commandos entered the room, bin Laden's wife – who was unarmed – charged one of them. She was shot in the leg, but was not killed.
Bin Laden was fatally shot in the chest and in the head.
Carney said bin Laden "resisted" US forces, but the press secretary did not explain what constituted his resistance.
"Resistance does not require a firearm," he said.
Earlier statements by administration officials had suggested bin Laden was armed and actively engaged in a firefight with the SEALs. According to Carney, those statements were not accurate.
The new account is far less dramatic than the original version. It is likely to raise questions about whether the US mission was a targeted killing of bin Laden rather than a mission to capture or kill him.
On Monday, John Brennan, assistant to the president for homeland security, told members of the press that US forces were prepared to take bin Laden prisoner. "If we had the opportunity to take him alive, we would have done that," Mr. Brennan said.
"We had discussed that extensively in a number of meetings in the White House and with the president," he said. "The concern was that bin Laden would oppose any type of capture operation."
Brennan added: "Indeed, he did. There was a firefight."
But it is unclear what role, if any, bin Laden played in the firefight. It is also unclear why, since bin Laden was unarmed, the decision was made on the scene to kill him rather than attempt to capture him.
"He resisted," Carney said, offering no further details.
"The US personnel on the ground handled themselves with the utmost professionalism," Carney added. "And [bin Laden] was killed in an operation because of the resistance that he – that they met."
The fact that bin Laden was unarmed when he was shot and killed does not undermine the legality of the US military operation, according to legal experts.
Under the law of war, the commander of Al Qaeda was a legitimate military target. Members of the US assault team couldn't know what bin Laden might attempt when cornered in his home.
By way of contrast, the standard used by law enforcement officers in the United States differs from the law of war. It is unclear, from the details now released by the White House, whether bin Laden's actions would have posed a significant enough threat to justify the use of lethal force by arresting police officers.
But the raid on the bin Laden compound was not a law enforcement operation. It was a projection of US military force to "kill or capture" the world's most wanted terrorist.
Although some critics have branded the US operation an "execution," the American public overwhelmingly supports it. Nine in 10 Americans said they approved of the raid on bin Laden's compound, according to a Gallup poll.
The same poll showed 33 percent of respondents would have preferred capturing bin Laden alive, while 60 percent said it was better for the US that he was killed during the operation.

Wicker Park Live Work
At Morlen Sinoway, our Interior Design Projects are inspired by artful intentions to create thoughtful solutions to our clients needs and expectations. Project uniqueness is created from our studio, through our approach of timeless diversity.
The brief of this spectacular project was to convert an old, previously remodeled funeral home into a modern live/work environment. The building was segmented for the two functions. The work area occupied the basement, first floor convertible showroom, and second floor convertible meeting space.
The second floor living space was transformed from the previous living quarters of the funeral home proprietors. While the hayloft on the third floor was converted into a large master bedroom suite with access to a 1,500 square foot deck featuring unobstructed city views. Morlen Sinoway Atelier was involved in the architecture and interior design of the contemporary conversation of the 5,500 square foot building.

It was a handwritten letter that proved to be the turning point of Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis's year. "I know The Rolling Stones have said that we'd never asked them to play before, but the truth is I'd been trying to book them for years," he laughed down a phone line from Worthy Farm. "Maybe the chap I was speaking to was the wrong chap? He always told me there was no chance."
Eavis, of course, is not a man who takes "no chance" for an answer. He put pen to paper and sent a personal note to the Stones' office in London explaining how much it would mean to him for the Stones to play — and how it would be a perfect way for the band to celebrate their 50th anniversary.
He said: "It made a difference because that way the band knew for sure that I wanted them and why. I told them that we were both of a similar age and said: 'Come on, let's make this work!'"
The human touch did work and The Rolling Stones were booked to play Glastonbury for the first time in its 43-year history.
They headlined on Saturday night to a rapturous reception, with the other night's slots taken up by Arctic Monkeys and Mumford & Sons. Eavis claims the Stones were incredibly easy to deal with, the only problem being their inability to confirm until the eleventh hour. "They were busy with their world tour and so it wasn't until a couple of months before that we knew they were definitely playing," he said. "We were prepared for them pulling out though: we always have a couple of backup artists waiting in the wings, although I'd better not say who they were!"
Eavis, who runs the festival with his daughter, Emily, says the most challenging thing about the festival is working out how to distribute the budget around the entire 1,200 acre site, "It's like Marmite," he added. "You have to spread it really thin. We always figure that we can't spend it all on rock bands because I'd get three or four that cost millions and then you'd have nothing for the rest of the site which is the bit that makes Glastonbury so special."
Much as he personally loved the Stones' performance, Eavis salutes the festival's diversity.
Indeed, while Jagger and co headlined to a packed Pyramid Stage, plenty of punters were elsewhere, watching a range of acts that included dance duo Chase & Status on the Other Stage and – cleverly – the Bootleg Beatles at the Acoustic Stage.
"A lot of middle aged hippies said that they didn't need to see the Stones and went off to watch Tibetan monks grunting with that funny voice they do. I don't know why but they seem to prefer that kind of thing!"
As ever, there were criticisms that the festival was becoming increasingly corporate, and that it was placing an emphasis on luxury VIP experiences. Even Jagger described the festival as being like "an alternative Ascot".
"I do think he was joking," said Eavis, before dismissing such criticisms. "If you hang around in a few specialist areas, in your silk-lined teepees, then maybe that's what it feels like.
"But that's a tiny percentage of what we're about – we have 200,000 people there – if you include the crew, security, stewards, performers and all the rest of it. Of those, 147,000 buy ordinary tickets.
Eavis is under strict instructions not to talk about next year's Glastonbury: he has a habit of giving away sensitive line-up information when it is not necessarily convenient. What he will say is that the Fleetwood Mac rumours are not accurate. "We're hoping to get them for 2015, but not next year".
But beyond that he has to fight his instincts and remain tight-lipped. His press officer John says that Eavis is not a man who likes to look backwards because his mind is always on the future.
And sure enough, after this interview, Eavis says that he is heading out to check out the festival's huge metal security fence and the surrounding metal roads and towers. At 78 years old, where does he get the energy?
"Well every morning I have a swim in cold water, then a hot shower and I'm teed up for the day," he said. "Besides, it's such good fun for someone my age to be doing. Can you imagine the joy I get out of it?"

If you read Captain Atom, you can obviously notice the connection to Doctor Manhattan in the character. Not so much in the personality, but rather the powers he possesses. And then of course, there are the little nods - the glass desert in Issue #3, the image of the giant Captain Atom in Issue #5.
But, in developing the book, I found myself thinking about Superman quite a bit in determining how Captain Atom would be in this incarnation. Guess you could say it was all priming me for Superman Beyond. It all boiled down to making Captain Atom a polar opposite to Superman. Nathaniel was an Air Force pilot, a human being dedicating his life to fighting for his nation. In becoming Captain Atom though, his place in the world becomes much more alienated. He's considered a threat - and his incredible powers are classified more as dangerous than wonderful. Contrast that with Superman, who is an actual alien living among us humans on Earth. We embrace Superman because he looks like one of us. His powers are seen as wondrous and appealing, and we come to see the best of ourselves in him - not only in terms of physical potential, but also moral fiber. But isn't Captain Atom just as honorable? Just as heroic? Yes, he is. Unfortunately, his powers only serve to isolate him more and more from humanity. In the people's mind, he is the alien - An opinion that affects Captain Atom as he begins to see himself as being other than human. It comes down to each character's place in the world.
This brings me to Superman Beyond, where that notion of having a place in the world is a central theme. In our timeline, Superman is firmly grounded on Earth. It is his home. He has family and friends and loved ones. His existence as Clark Kent keeps him connected to humanity. But can the same be said twenty years down the road? When those personal connections are dead and gone, what will keep Superman in touch with humanity? Where does he fit in, if anywhere? Look at the costume he wears, which highlights his Kryptonian heritage.
Is this the beginning of Kal-El pulling away from Earth altogether?

Logistic system is the translator which delivers something to buyer, transport materials to construction filed, and trucks finally make us to touch, and feel the result of worldwide connection. However trucks also cause problems such as truck accident, air pollution, weariness of truck drivers. Driving car is enjoyable thing, but driving truck is not because truck is a space of dangerous work.

MERRY is adding another floor to their multi-level "NOnsenSe MARkeT," which has so far consisted of three tours: B1, 1F, and 2F. This time, instead of a tour, MERRY is hosting a two-day festival and inviting several of their friends along. Named for MERRY's ruminant mascot, "NOnsenSe MARkeT 3F –Lamb Fest–" will take place on Thursday, November 5th and Saturday, November 7th.
NOnsenSe MARkeT 3F –ラムフェス–
11/5 @ Shinagawa Stellar Ball
MERRY / 黒猫チェルシー [Kuroneko Chelsea] / LIPHLICH / lynch. / MUCC / 四星球 [su-xing-cyu]
11/7 @ Kyoto KBS Hall
MERRY / メリー [Merry] / バックドロップシンデレラ [Backdrop Cinderella] / 八十八ヶ所巡礼 [88Kasyo Junrei] / HERO / vistlip / and more…
Ticket Information
5,500yen each
Pre-sale from 9/16 12:00 to 9/27 23:59
General sale begins 10/10
You may notice that MERRY is listed twice in the lineup for the November 7th show, once as MERRY and once as メリー. The former is how they currently typeset their name, while the latter was the band's official name prior to their move to FREE WILL in 2010. The event listing on MERRY's official website also depicts MERRY with the band's current artist photo and メリー with artwork from the band's first single 「はいからさんが通る。」 (Haikara-San ga Tooru.), released in 2002:
This would seem to imply that MERRY will be performing some kind of throwback to their early years, whether by playing old songs, donning costumes in their early style, or both. As the lineup has only just been announced, information is scarce, but we'll keep our eyes and ears open here at S-T.net should more details arise.
Edit October 27, 2015: This article previously referred to the event as "Ram Fest" to match a reference on MERRY's OHP. The band's OHP has since been updated with a page calling the event "Lamb Fest" and so the article has been corrected accordingly.

There are plenty of low cost and free website building programmes around and it's very tempting to go down that route to save money. The problem is that designing your own website may actually LOSE YOU MONEY!
Let me explain why.
1. The number of hours you have to put into it, would be better off put into actually teaching people to drive – which after all is your area of expertise.
2. DIY websites rarely rank well in Google. Test it out for yourself – do a search and see how many DIY sites rank well – my bet is very few if any. Many people may have heard of keywords but it will require knowledge and expertise to utilise them correctly. Poor keyword selection can mean that you are missing out on your potential clients or can even get you website PENALISED! A professional website with good use of keywords that are used correctly in the text of your site (and not abused) will get you far more visitors to your site.
3. Many "build your own website" apps produce bloated code in order to make them easy for you to build. This makes you site slow to load. Bad for your customers and bad for your ranking in Google.
4. A professionally designed site not only looks good but it will be designed with a good call to action, and appropriately prominent ways for people to contact you.
5. Many website builder apps as well as cheap software such as Serif Webplus produce websites that are not responsive and so fail the Google mobile friendly test.
6. Many cheap offers start cheap but then get more expensive after 12 months, or you have to pay for expensive upgrades for basic features.
7. It's not just about designing the site and adding some text. It's about understanding what Google wants, what your visitors want and ensuring your site can deliver.
8. What worked with websites two years ago may not work now – don't rely on second hand out of date information.
9. A web designer will look at your ideas and your online presence and give objective advice.
10. Designing your own website is like a pupil teaching themselves to drive. It can be done, but will take far longer – and will they end up a safe driver?
Why go to all this hassle? Get a driving school website from Wanasite, pay a simple monthly fee of £9.50 and concentrate on building your business and doing what you are an expert at – teaching people to be safe drivers!

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 29 (UPI) -- Lane Kiffin has reached an agreement to become the next football coach of the University of Tennessee Volunteers, ESPN says.
Sources said an announcement of Kiffin's hiring is expected Monday, assuming there are no last-minute hangups, the sports network reported Friday.
The 33-year-old former Oakland Raiders coach will be taking his first job as head coach of a college team. He would succeed Phillip Fulmer, who coached his last game for the Vols Saturday after being fired early this month.
ESPN said Tennessee Athletics Director Mike Hamilton denied reports Wednesday that Kiffin had been offered a contract.
Kiffin was 5-15 in a season and a half with Oakland before being fired this season by team owner Al Davis.

First of all, we want to thank you all for the tremendous interest you showed for our PhotoMath app.
It's really stunning: the PhotoMath video on Vimeo has very quickly reached 2 million views. Our web page has over 9000 page views each minute, and the iOS app alone was downloaded more than 1.6M times in less than three days, becoming the top free app in most countries around the world.
Reasonably, your expectations are high, and we seriously intend to live up to them.
Having in mind lots of different articles in the media, we feel compelled to explain some things regarding PhotoMath and our goals in more details.
PhotoMath is an app which uses a mobile phone camera to recognize mathematical expressions. It instantly solves a recognized expression, and displays step-by-step solution.
At this stage it can solve basic arithmetics, fractions, decimals, powers, roots, linear equations and functions like log, exp, sin, cos. It can recognize printed characters only, not handwritten text. The app doesn't solve word problems, geometry, or calculus.
Most about PhotoMath focus on it's use as a cheating tool. Let's be honest: many kids cheat anyway, and an app which solves math problems automatically won't make this problem worse. However, PhotoMath can be really helpful to many children when they are stuck with their homework and there is no one around to help them to figure it out. If we can eliminate kids' frustration at the point when they can't do anything else but helplessly stare at the book, we'll feel awesome. It's as simple as that.
In fact, we're sure that the same questions were raised when calculators entered classrooms. With PhotoMath, our goal is to make a much more useful calculator.
PhotoMath uses MicroBlink's proprietary mobile machine vision technology to automatically recognize text of a math problem. This is one of our innovations: we do very accurate and fast text recognition on a mobile device, without using an internet connection. Ironically, to do very simple math calculations using PhotoMath, we had to implement highly complex math in our image processing and text recognition algorithms.
Another innovation is our step-by-step system of solving math problems. It enables us to upgrade our app for more complex math tasks in a manageable way. What this means to you is that this system will enable us to make the updates needed for solving more complex math problems in the near future.
PhotoMath is free, because our business is licensing our tech to other software developers and companies to solve a range of different problems. This includes, among others, text and barcode scanning, ID card or payment slip scanning, email address, URL, bank account number scanning. If you are a software developer and think we can help to improve your business in some way, we will gladly respond to your proposals.
We are a small company with employees who love their work and live it passionately. Our goal is to project this passion in the software which we make. That's why we invite you all to try PhotoMath for iOS and Windows Phone, and send us your feedback. You can help us to make an already awesome app even better.
MicroBlink Team.

You are not alone is all I can say, you will find people here having the same addiction as you do. Enjoy it, and don't spend the wrong money for it.
Hello everyone,
It's a pleasure to find a group of likeminded individuals when it comes to the world of perfume. I have to admit, I am absolutely addicted to all things related to perfume and I have been since I was quite young. I can remember it was such a triumph for me when my parents finally let me go to the mall alone with my friends because that meant that I could wander the perfume counters in the department stores begging for samples all day long!
Speaking of samples....
I am absolutely in love with perfume samples and anything related to perfume culture. The little bottles produced by perfume companies for limited editions, the tiny vials especially produced for samples, the scent cards you find at the perfume counter, all these things are precious to me! Please tell me I'm not alone
I can't even begin to count how many little vials I have collected with samples of perfumes and I won't even comment on the number of larger sized bottles I have. There is just something precious about the manufacturer's samples and all the little things that go along with them. I remember one perfume company gave out their samples sprayed on a ribbon with the company's name printed on it. Even though the scent no longer lingers on the ribbon, it's still such a sweet thing.
Well, there is my introduction, if I can even call it that!
Again, nice to find this fabulous place!
You are not alone is all I can say, you will find people here having the same addiction as you do. Enjoy it, and don't spend the wrong money for it.
Great works are performed, not by strength, but by perseverance.
Fragrance is, at least in my opinion, far more than just a full-fledged cultural phenomenon, it is indeed, a self-sustaining, autonomous culture and civilization on its own, creating so many ramification not just leading to our consumer behavior, but also the deepest and utmost multilateral layers of our conscience, our knowledge, our aspirations, of our ideals even, thus, I am truly glad for you and wish to you to enjoy your newly found pleasure (that kind of pleasure I do not see as something addictive, thus my opinion is not a too recommendable and supportive one, however far more enabling and useful when it strictly refers to the delights, not the addiction factor, of frags)

You are certainly in good company here. Some of us are more drawn to the juice, some have a special love for the bottles, others the ads; I love reading books about the industry and about perfumes themselves. For me it began in childhood, too, and whereas my other enthusiasms have come and gone over the years, this one is here to stay!
Now that I have lived in a small town for many years, I find I miss the posh atmosphere of shopping in a big department store fragrance counter or in a tiny bijoux of a small parfumerie - on trips I seek out perfume stores, boutiques, outlet stores -
I adore the bottles, the juice, the samples, the artwork of the box, just everything about perfume!
I am addicted, but like to rationalize it as a lifetime interest!

HIV/AIDS News
NIAID Trial of Triple Drug Combination for HIV Infection Closes
Investigators supported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) have completed analysis of a multi-site clinical trial examining the safety and tolerability of two different regimens of combination drug therapy for patients with moderately advanced HIV disease and prior prolonged antiretroviral therapy.
AIDS Clinical Trials (ACTG) 241 compared the two regimens using virologic and immunologic parameters. Analysis of data revealed that, after 48 weeks of treatment, patients receiving a combination of nevirapine (NVP), didanosine (ddI) and zidovudine (AZT) appear to have better immunologic and virologic responses than patients who took a combination of AZT, ddI and a placebo. However, no major differences in HIV disease progression or survival could be detected within the limits of the study design.
The ACTG 241 researchers found that counts of CD4+ T cells, crucial immune system cells targeted by HIV, were 25 percent greater among patients receiving NVP/ddI/AZT compared to patients taking AZT/ddI after 48 weeks of treatment. Researchers detected differences between the two patient groups within eight weeks of their beginning therapy. The differences remained throughout 48 weeks of the study.
Study scientists used two methods to monitor HIV in the patients' blood, measuring viral infectivity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and amounts of HIV-1 RNA in plasma. Both measures revealed that the patients receiving NVP/ddI/AZT had greater decreases in the amount of HIV in their blood, called viral load, during the first weeks of the study. Using the PBMC measure, investigators detected a decrease in viral load throughout the study. With the HIV-1 RNA test, these decreases were lost by 48 weeks.
Overall patients had no significant differences in rates of severe side effects from the therapies, although patients receiving the NVP/ddI/AZT therapy had significantly more severe skin rashes than patients taking AZT/ddI. The investigators attributed the rashes to NVP.
Conducted at 16 sites within the ACTG, the trial enrolled 400 HIV-infected adults with CD4+ T cell counts of 350 or less per cubic millimeter of blood who had previous single-drug or combination therapy with AZT, ddI or zalcitabine (ddC) for six or more months.
Both treatment regimens included oral doses of 600 milligrams (mg) a day of AZT and 400 mg/day of ddI. The triple drug regimen also used 400 mg of NVP daily (200 mg for the first two weeks). Neither the investigators nor the participants knew which regimen a patient received until the study ended.
AZT and ddI are licensed for the treatment of HIV infection. The drugs all inhibit a viral enzyme, reverse transcriptase, necessary for the replication and spread of HIV. NVP, an investigational medication, also inhibits reverse transcriptase, but appears to work on a different site of the enzyme.
When the study began in May 1993, the duration of treatment was to be 48 weeks. However, investigators extended the study to allow patients to receive therapy until the study was unblinded in November 1994. At that time, data for the first 48 weeks of therapy were analyzed from 398 patients. Richard T. D'Aquila, M.D., served as the study chair and Martin S. Hirsch, M.D., as co-chair. Both investigators are from Harvard University School of Medicine.
The ACTG, established in 1987, is one of NIAID's nationwide clinical trials network that conducts studies to evaluate the safety of new drugs, drug combinations and vaccines in adults and children at various stages of HIV disease. The ACTG has 57 units affiliated with major U.S. medical centers. NIAID conducted ACTG 241 in collaboration with Boehringer Ingleheim, Bristol-Myers Squibb and Burroughs Wellcome, manufacturers of the NVP, ddI and AZT, respectively.
NIAID, a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), supports research on AIDS, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases as well as allergies and immunology. NIH is an agency of the U.S. Public Health Service, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
For further information about ACTG 241 and other AIDS clinical trial, call 1-800-TRIALS-A, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., ET.

This week saw day 365 and the end of my photography project, 'Hello! Pleased to meet you'. The feeling of contentment that flows through me in relation to this project has yet to fully sink in. I honestly cannot say thank you enough to every person involved in the project, this is all of ours.
'Hello! Pleased to meet you.' is a portrait based project. I wanted to create the project for a number of reasons. The top of this list being the simple notion that I wanted to improve my portrait taking skills. A subject in every art form that has always held my passion. 'Hello! Pleased to meet you.' was my third attempt at a long term portrait project. Armed with the lessons learned in the previous projects, I started the endeavor with this goal:
Take a portrait of the person who influences my day to day life throughout 2014.
Not only has 'Hello! Pleased to meet you.' left me with with the strongest feeling of fulfillment, I picked up a few other things along the way. The project taught me how to prioritize in order to achieve what I wanted. The importance of finishing something I start. The necessity of working with others and the emphasis of keeping social – the lesson that I consider the most valuable. Of course, these were all things that I knew before working on this project but knowing something and actually putting something into practice on a daily basis are two very different things.
I can safely say that long term projects help in every area of your life. Working freelance, I find myself consistently in a changing environment. Having the daily task of taking a portrait had filled the last year of my life with the strongest feeling of stability. Everyone worries about the validly of how they spend their time. Every night for the last year I went to sleep with the thought of no matter what life threw at me that day I still had scratched, 'TAKE A PORTRAIT', off my daily to do list.
The project made me social even when I wasn't exactly feeling it. It made me leave my comfort zone at times and it brought me to new places. For certain milestone moments, it made me think about who I wanted to share them with and it always brought a smile on someones face when I shared the alternative motive of my invite for lunch. A few times of course this smile was replaced with the line, "Please dont tell me you are about to take out your camera here".- Another thing I learned - Overcoming obstacles leaves a damn fine taste on your palette.
Of course the project had its obstacles. I used be slightly intimidated asking certain people could I take their photo. I was worried that I would be greeted with a negative response that I didnt want to hear. I quickly discarded this thought and decided that in order to succeed with this project that I needed to ask the person that I honestly felt was my influence for said day. Im not saying that people didnt turn down my request, but even when they did, I was always happy that I tried. The other obstacle that the project saw was that some days I just didnt meet anyone that really influenced my daily life. This was overcome with the project having about fifteen self portraits.
A few unplanned and motivating moments happened along the way. At the beginning of the project, I was asked if the photo of one of my favorite people could be used in an article. Also in relation to printing, on a shoot a few months later, while I was debating if it was professional or not to ask a client for her photo -she was my daily influence after all, I ended up getting new business cards. Read that article here. The most motivating scenario that the photos were getting used for was peoples profile photos on social networking sites. In a world that is slowly and surely getting more disconnect due to constant connectivity, I took having someone using one of the photos as their online representation as an accomplishment.
I would once again like to say a massive thank you to my family, my friends, my clients, and to everyone else I met while strolling with my camera this year. To all the kind words, the beautiful messages and motivating comments that have aided this journey from the beginning. This isn't the place to announce my new photography endeavor in full but I will happily state that it will take some time to finish, it will have a strong reportage element to it and it will definitely be keeping me social.
