Subject: Witnessing
Theme: Cost of Witnessing "God Gave Me Back My Tomorrow"
Introduction:A boy who applied for work was told by the manager he did not think they had enough work to keep another boy employed. The boy said, �But I am sure, sir, that you must have enough work to hire me. You don�t know what a little amount of work it takes to keep me busy.� Many so-called disciples are like this boy. They want to follow Jesus, not to see how much they can do for Him, but how little. To such the Lord never says, �Follow me.� Any who enter Christian service for the sake of having an easy time will be disappointed. Christ is a busy Commander of busy soldiers.
Prop: We can all learn the price of witnessing...
T.S.: We can all calculate the price of witnessing by looking at the expenses of witnessing.
1. Missionary Journeys
2. Paul on way to see Emperor
I.Sanctuary Expense (Persecution)
1. A faithful Christian soldier went to his chaplain for advice. �Last night,� he said, �when I knelt by my bed and prayed, the fellows began to ridicule me and throw shoes at me. What should I do?� �Well,� said the chaplain, �why don�t you stop kneeling down? Just lie down in bed and lift your heart to God in silence and He will hear you.� After a few days, the chaplain asked the soldier how he was faring with his evening prayers. �I�ll tell you, Reverend. I followed your advice for three nights, but my conscience began to bother me because I was betraying my Lord. So I began to kneel down as I did before.� �And what happened?� �I was really amazed. Not a single fellow ridiculed me. Now the fifteen men in my tent kneel down with me, and I pray aloud for all of them.�
II.Lighthouse Expense (Light in the Darkness)
1.A young girl once consulted with her minister. �I cannot stick it out any longer. I am the only Christian in the factory where I work. I get nothing but taunts and sneers. It is more than I can stand. I am going to resign.� �Will you tell me,� asked the minister, �where lights are placed?� �What has that to do with it?� the young Christian asked him rather bluntly. �Never mind,� the minister replied. �Answer my question: �Where are lights placed?� � �I suppose in dark places,� she replied. �Yes, and that is why you have been put in that factory where there is such spiritual darkness and where there is no other Christian to shine for the Lord.� The young Christian realized for the first time the opportunity that was hers. She felt she could not fail God by allowing her light to go out. She went back to the factory with renewed determination to let her light shine in that dark corner. Before long, she was the means of leading nine other girls to the Light.
III.Storytelling Expense (I love to tell the story)
1.J. D. Brash came to Manchester. His mother came to live with him, and while attending the church in which he was minister, gave her heart to God. Her son asked her to attend his society class, but her Scottish reserve made her insist upon a promise being given by him that he would never call upon her to speak. To this he assented, but said that he would tell the story of her conversion. At the first class meeting he began to tell the story, but he had not traveled far before his mother very excitedly said, �You are not telling it right, Jack,�

We all change. When you think about it, we're all different people all through our lives, and that's okay, that's good, you've got to keep moving, so long as you remember all the people that used to be. I will not forget one line of this. Nt one day. I swear. I will always remember when the Doctor was me.

Ad for a variety of World Wrestling Federation figures (including Hulk Hogan, Iron Sheik, and Rowdy Roddy Piper) and "Hulkamania exercise equipment" from LJN Toys. Scan from the fall 1987 issue of ThunderCats Magazine.
Okay. Let me tell you about the insanity in this Japanese music video. It has a plot!
Apparently, the evil organization known as Dethtron (and/or Destron) staged an attack that injured or killed five women. Feeling sadness and inspired by his love of the masked heroes of justice known as Kamen Riders, Japanese professional wrestler Hiroshi Tanahashi uses "his state of the art technology" (including at least one desktop computer, one laptop, and one thingamajig with gauges) to revive these women as Kamen Rider Girls, "androids of perfection" who are also a Kamen Rider-themed singing group.
The Kamen Rider Girls go after the forces of Dethtron, but eventually the battle goes south, so Tanahashi shows up to help out! Things are looking up, but then a Dethtron monster appears - Kame Bazooka, a magic-robot turtleman with a bazooka stuck to his shell. Now Tanahashi is the one on the (figurative) ropes, but who should show up except… Kamen Rider V3! Together, Tanahashi and V3 mop up the Dethtron forces, then both depart after saying farewell to the Kamen Rider Girls.
The whole video is meant to evoke the origin of Kamen Rider V3, who was made into a cyborg by Kamen Rider 1 and 2 after being grievously injured by Dethtron. This puts Tanahashi in the role of the original two Kamen Riders, which… well, if a biochemist/motorcyclist and a photographer can make a single cyborg, surely a champion pro wrestler can make five "androids," right?
Not sure why two of the Kamen Rider Girls have the same superhero outfit, though. That seems like a faux-pas. I do like how one one them seems to be dressed as Transformers: Prime Arcee (not actually likely), while Tanahashi may be wearing pants based on Kamen Rider Fourze (marginally likely, as he is a legit Kamen Rider fan and has worn KR-themed pants in the past).
And then there was that time Destro's voice actor mentored a group of superheroic masked wrestlers, who spent most of their time fighting a chihuahua with the mind of an evil scientist.

"Spouses, family members of active-duty military and other status of forces agreement personnel are encouraged to attend," said Dave Tanenbaum, a talent-acquisition supervisor with MCCS and coordinator of the event. "Hard-to-fill positions are occasionally filled by other than military family members; however, spouses have the priority."
This is a once-a-year opportunity for job seekers to network and speak with recruiters from more than 30 organizations.
"If you are looking for a job on island or may be in the future, you do not want to miss this fair," he added.
The job fair will offer a large group of hiring managers, giving candidates the opportunity to speak and network with future employers as well as submitting their resumes.
Representatives with the U.S. Marine Corps, Army, Navy, Air Force, private organizations, universities and other organizations will meet with career seekers during the event, said Tanenbaum.
Participating organizations, invited by MCCS, include: Army and Air Force Exchange Service; Booz Allen Hamilton; American Engineering Corporation; Counseling and Advocacy; Civilian Human Resources Office; Community Bank; U.S. Naval Hospital Okinawa; MCCS Facilities; Navy Federal; Navy Morale, Welfare and Recreation; Personal Services Center; Semper Fit; University of Phoenix and Kadena Air Base.
All SOFA personnel are authorized to attend, and translators will be available for Japanese-speaking job seekers.
"Professionals will be on hand to give resume-writing tips to those who are looking to improve their current job skills," said Maritza Torres-Wells, the director of Non-Appropriated Funds and Human Resources Office with MCCS. "The fair will benefit those service members who are about to separate, or active duty personnel who are looking for flexible hourly positions."
Active-duty service members have to receive an authorization letter approved by their command stating they have permission to work part-time jobs outside their military obligations, said Tanenbaum.Several vendors will represent an incredibly diverse group of businesses designed to make Okinawa a permanent home for families located on island.
"I think this job fair could be very helpful to fellow Marines," said Cpl. Lorne J. Smith Jr., a troop handler with the Joint Reception Center, Headquarters and Service Battalion, Marine Corps Base Camp Butler. "It could give them a better idea of what they want to do after they get out of the military. With my end of active service nearing, this job fair could have the job that I'm looking for and more details about what I may need to do."
Some career possibilities coincide with current or previous military occupations.
"Some positions may require college degrees or a combination of work experience and education," said Torres-Wells. "Other positions may require specialized trainings and certifications."
For more information or details, contact MCCS at 645-3052.

BOND Melbury Red 2009
#BON09MB3 | 750mL
As one of the six vineyard sites that vintner Bill Harlan has coined as a "Grand Cru" property, Melbury comes from the Rutherford AVA, just north of Lake Hennessey. In the glass,this '09 exhibits the signature notes of supple, red fruit with a little spice. The tannins are firm but elegant. This is one of my favorite BOND single vineyards upon each vintage release. If you can be patient and let this offering rest in the bottle for another few years, it will be worth the wait. - Kerrin Laz, Wine Director

BOND Estates
Their vision was to create a small portfolio of ultimately six wines diverse in their geographic representation and "Grand Cru" in quality, all under the umbrella of one philosophy, one team, and one mark. Sourced from the most select of these estates, the Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines of BOND would ultimately demonstrate the range of Napa Valley's finest terroirs.
This wine pairs well with:
- Beef
- Beef - Braised
- Beef - Roasted

The main idea of this deck:
Good start... but have you considered put low cost equipments instead?
Yes, just made some changes around that idea ;)
Nice, I like it. I have a deck that's very similar.I suggest taking both Mirran Crusader 's out and putting 2 more Kor Duelist 's in. They're quicker to play and you don't need the protection from the Mirran Crusader 's when you have all 5 swords. I also highly recommend Lightning Greaves because your Stoneforge Mystic 's and Puresteel Paladin 's are going to get targeted immediately.
If you want some more ideas you should check out my version of this deck here: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/white-equipment-31-08-12-1/
Also you should consider Basilisk Collar . GREAT low cost equipment.
Oh you have it already. Ha ha my bad I didn't see it at first.
Jedi, thanks for Lightning Greaves tip, I'll try to run it.
About getting out the mirran crusader, I was already thinking about it, but instead of the Kor Duelist , maybe more 2 Silverblade Paladin ?
What do you think?
To be honest...no. I think that is a terrible idea. You don't need the Silverblade Paladin if you have Kor Duelist s.
I'll try to run it with more Kor Duelist then. Thanks for the advice.

Sierra Nevada Brewing Co | Hoptimum | 10.4% ABV
Double IPA
Sierra Nevada seems to be able to do no wrong with me lately. Hoptimum is their annual double IPA release and it's fantastic! Sweet. Bitter. Fresh. Floral. This is a great IPA. If you can get your hands on it, do it! Love it.
Price: $7.99/4pack
Rating: 9/10
Mikkeller/To OL | Sleep Over Coffee IIPA | 11.2 FL
Coffee IPA
Wow! This is, by far, the best Coffee IPA I've ever had. I haven't had many, though. Very heavy on coffee; finishes with a bitter grapefruit after taste. Not really sure how readily available Mikkeller stuff is near you, but if you see it, grab it.
Price: $7.99/12oz bottle
Rating: 9/10
Great Lakes Brewing Co | Lake Erie Monster | 9.1% ABV
Imperial IPA
The monster is back and it's fucking delicious! Fresh carmel and malt taste with just the right amount of bitterness. This is a great beer. Availability is May though July so snatch it up if you see it!
Price: $11.99/4pack
Rating: 9/10
Long Trail Brewing Co | Brewmaster Series Double IPA | 8.6% ABV
Double IPA
Here's a beer I know nothing about. It was sent to me by a friend and I can't wait to try it! This is sweet and malty at the same time. Really crisp. This beer is getting more complex and vibrant as it warms up. I really surprised by this. Get it if you can. Great stuff.
Rating: 8/10
Victory Brewing Co | Hop Devil | 6.7% ABV
Very surprised this is the first time I'm having this. I've always been turned off by Victory's labels but I've never really heard anything bad about the hop devil. That being said…this is pretty good. It has a typical really hoppy bitter aftertaste but that's about it. It's be a pretty good session beer. Not fantastic but not bad either. Give it a shot.
Price: $9.99/6pack
Rating: 6/10
Founders Brewing | Dry Hopped Pale Ale | 5.4% ABV
Pale Ale
Another delicious release from Founders Brewing. If you like hops, then this is for you. Bitter citrus like a mother fucker. This come from dry hopping (hence the name). Dry hopping happens after the initial boil, during fermentation, and enhances aroma of the beer. For more on dry hopping, fucking google it!
Price: $9.99/6-pack
Rating: 7/10
Dogfish Head | 90 Minute IPA | 9% ABV
Imperial IPA
Why haven't you tried this beer yet? In my experience, this is the best, most easy to find imperial IPA out there. Just fucking go get it cunts.
Price: $10.99/4-pack
Rating: 9/10
Milwaukee Brewing | Hop Happy | 7.7% ABV
This brewery is fairly new to the Chicago area or at least new to me. Of course I'm going to try the IPA first. Let's give it a WHIRRLLLL!!! This is pretty bland and boring. The hops might be dead but you would never know because there's no bottle date. There's not much else I can say about this. I would stay away unless you can find a bottling date. Big meh.
Price: $9.99/6-pack
Rating: 3/10
Dogfish Head | Heaven and Hell | 18%+ ABV
Black and Tan
BOOM! What a great idea this was. Not sure if this is officially sanctioned by Dogfish head. This is 50% 120 minute IPA and 50% world wide stout. Both start out at 18% ABV and YES it is as delicious as it sounds. The IPA mellows the boozey taste from the stout and the stout calms the bitterness of the IPA. If you can get your hands on these do it. You won't be sorry.
Price: $9/ 9oz draft
Rating: 9/10
Flying Dog | Doggie Style | 5.5% ABV
Pale Ale
This is actually a pretty good pale ale. I wasn't expecting much because I disliked the IPA they have. This is the superior brew in my opinion. Now, that isn't saying much. I would call this a session beer. Give it a shot or don't. Get something you know you love. I don't know. Blah.
Price: $9.99/6-pack
Rating: 5/10

We would love to introduce you to the ranch life, the critters who live with us on Willow Creek Ranch, and those that visit often and live just on the other side of the fence in the Arapaho National Forest. Ranch life is hard work, but fun if you love the lifestyle, and we sure do. We want our guests to have access to all the ranch property...This makes the introduction to the ranch and the critters a must. Relax on the large deck with your favorite beverage and watch the horses graze close by...Former guests and visitors to the ranch are still talking about the experience!
We will show you the hiking paths into the Arapaho National Forest. Pack a snack, some water (bottled provided), your camera, and enjoy the views. The ranch is also available for your walking and hiking pleasure. Our rural country roads are great for a walk or run.
Lease one of our horses for riding/lessons, or just for pictures ($40.00 Per Hour Per Horse or portion thereof), Tips for the wranglers are appreciated. Guides are required for trail rides at no extra charge. 16 years of age and older preferred on Trail Rides...Parents take full responsibility for children on trail rides and for children 8 and under put on a horse. Your safety is our major concern. Bring your horse if you prefer...there is free parking for your horse trailer and a fee per horse per day for boarding & hay...$20.00 Per day. Waivers are required to be signed by everyone entering the ranch property.
Your family and friends are more than welcome to visit you anytime during your stay at the ranch. There is plenty of room for a family reunion on the ranch property (not in the Lodge or Lofts), a large deck on the side of the barn for cookouts, and lots of play area on our thirty five plus acres. Let us know ahead of time, and we can arrange a campfire and at no charge. Since this is a working ranch with large animals and equipment, waivers are required to be signed by everyone. There are additional fees for large parties over 30 guests and larger cleaning fees. Depending on the size of the party, you may be required to rent the Lodge and Lofts so as not to disturb the privacy and activities of other guests...nor would you want them to disturb you.
Major ski areas are within fifteen minutes to an hour and half of the ranch...Echo, Copper, Winter Park, Mary Jane, Keystone, Loveland, and Vail. Entertainment, Broncos, Rockies, Elitch Six Flags, Dinner & Theatre in Denver is just 30-40 minutes away in the opposite direction...The best of both worlds while staying on Willow Creek Ranch.
Willow Creek Ranch is located on the front range of the Colorado Mountains you have always wanted to see, the Denver you have always wanted to visit, and the ski resorts you have always dreamed of experiencing. The ski resorts are beautiful to visit in the summer too...Their beauty does end with the snow season...It just begins!
There is a Wal-Mart Superstore at the Evergreen Parkway Exit 252 at I-70 a King Soopers (Kroger), Safeway (Vons), and a Walgreens on Evergreen Parkway on your drive to the ranch for your shopping needs. The King Soopers and Safeway shopping centers each have a liquor store and restaurants.
A reservation is not confirmed until a full booking deposit/payment is received. The property/Lofts/Lodge comes pretty much as pictured on the website...I'm constantly redecorating...You will not be disappointed with the furnishings and decorations. This is not a hotel...you get sooooooo much more here at Willow Creek Ranch. While we certainly want you to feel at home, we know you will take are of the loft and leave it's contents in the condition you find it. As this is a working ranch and the owners live/work on the premises, we will give you as much privacy as you require. Unpredictable weather in Colorado can bring heavy snow in the early spring, fall and winter...It is highly recommended you use a 4 WD or All WD vehicle while driving in the mountains.
Be sure to ask for Jude or Andy when you call the ranch 303-670-5584. If we are not available we will return your call as soon as possible and definitely by the end of the day.

About Jude Lovorn
I've always been an animal lover, and I must admit a rancher at heart. I did not hesitate to purchase these 40 acres that back up to the Arapaho National Forest when I had the opportunity. The towering ponderosa pines, blue spruce, and the aspens are staged below a mountain of boulders, dirt, various creatures, and their homes in the forest at 8600 feet. The stars seem to be as close as the ground you walk on. The critters are close too, but not too close. The temperature is about 10 degrees cooler in the summer than down in Denver, and in other towns along the front range. The serenity of the forest, its' critters, and the soft breeze of the evening through the evergreens will lull you to sleep like never before. We have a few horses, black angus, 3 friendly dogs, Shotgun, Jackson, & Geranimo, who are family and occupy space with us here on the ranch. My lady, Jude, and I are friendly, laid back, and love our lifestyle . Though we often visit our boat docked at a marina in California, the ranch is our soul. We want to share with you the beauty and serenity of Willow Creek Ranch, and an experience that will bring you back again and again.
Jude Lovorn purchased this barn in 1999
Why Jude Lovorn chose Evergreen
Willow Creek Ranch, established in 2000, is a working ranch with horses and cows, and we live on the premises. In 2010 we decided to share our beautiful ranch with the Barn Loft rentals, and added the Lodge in June, 2013. We enjoy entertaining and taking care of our guests while giving them privacy they may require. The quietness of the forest at night, and the ranch's seclusion, makes for a very restful night's sleep. The Upper Bear Creek area has some of the most beautiful mountain views in the world. As you come up Upper Bear Creek Road to the ranch, the view of Mt. Evans is breath taking. Sitting on the deck with your favorite refreshment, and enjoying the ranch with its' quiet beauty is very relaxing.
What makes this barn unique
The access to Arapaho National Forest on our horses, and for a day of hiking is priceless. During the hunting season, we have the best of both worlds within a few miles, and we can stay dry and warm...Whether it's snowing or not. Having the forest critters visit us on a daily basis makes for great entertainment when family and friends visit. Taking care of the family of critters that live on the ranch is a pleasure...not a chore.

I'm not sure. Deleted scenes can always be used in futur installments, especially in the case of Heath Ledger (may he RIP) as a deleted scene involvng him could be used to explain what happens to him leading up to a third film, i.e. a shot of him in Arkham would show he was arrested successfully.
However it seems slightly unfair to release a great film like Batman Begins or TDK on DVD and not give ANY deleted scenes out as extras. People want to see everything about it, how it was made and the scenes that were cut from the final project.

Katherine Webb, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model, To Answer Fan Questions On Uinterview.com
Katherine Webb, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model dating Alabama's football's AJ McCarren, will soon be sitting down with Uinterview.com for a fan interview. Now's your chance to ask the Splash! contestant about her sudden rise to fame, her Sports Illustrated shoot or her new reality show!
Webb shot to stardom during the BCS Championship game when her boyfriend McCarren led the Alabama Crimson tide in a decisive victory of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. "Wow, you quarterbacks get all the good looking women," ESPN commentator Brett Musburger observed as the camera hung on Webb. "What a beautiful woman, whoa! If you're a youngster in Alabama, start getting the football out and throw it around the backyard with Pops." From that moment on, Webb has been a household name.
Prior to the game, Webb had been crowned Miss Alabama USA and finished in the Top 10 of the Miss USA 2012 competition, and had launched a modeling career. However, it wasn't until afterwards that she became a verified celebrity. Hours after the BCS game aired her Twitter follower count leapt from 2,000 to over 175,000 (currently over 270,000). Soon after, Inside Edition offered Webb a chance to cover Super Bowl XLVII, which was followed by the opportunity to star on ABC's new celebrity diving reality show, Splash!. Webb was also featured in the 2013 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue alongside Kate Upton.
Click on "SUBMIT" next to Katherine Webb's picture at the upper-left hand corner of Uinterview.com to submit your questions for consideration!

2nd Installment (PCs and World Trees)

Rich is myself, the Game Master of the game in question.
Hiro, or Norwood, is the key contributor to the discussions.
J, or Breitzman, is a student at an art institute in Chicago.
Grover is a student of folklore, and is condering the pursuit of a masters in folklore.
Italics will be used for player emails.
The Cast
Here are some details on preliminary character submissions for the game by players.
The first is from an email I sent to the BrainTrust.
Cary has scoped out her PC and has a name that I cannot recall right now [it's a Viking name, rather cool]. Her father was Chance, and she's a Get of Fenris werewolf. As for her relationship with her father, think True Lies. Her dad posed as a traveling salesman, and his "missions" were business trips. He did teach his "only daughter" about odd things like lockpicking, and sharpshooting, but otherwise she lived a normal life. He died on a business trip (the Cambodia storyline) [see below for further details] when she was about eleven, before her First Change. She wants her PC to have an interest in police work, possibly forensics. She has attended police academy (without any of the hilarious characters of the movies unfortunately), and that's about as far as she's developed the character.
Next is a conversation between Josh and myself about his character
So, any further developments on your Pumonca?
He's half-Indian, with a mom named Reesa, a Pumonca. [Reesa is the sister of a Draupnir member named Seth who is metis]
* Is she dead, gone, what? You tell me.... I was just assuming that she had disappeared some years ago.
* What about Dad? Was he a regular guy, did he live on the reservation?
My initial thoughts here was that he was a regular joe, but isn't around anymore. Perhaps I never even knew him? My feeling was that "I" was raised more by "uncles" or "grandparents" which in reality were the tribe elders.
* You said you saw your PC on the res, which is cool. Which res?
Don't know yet.... Is there one that would work better for you?
* What tribe is he?
I'm undecided - but I'm leaning towards Apache or Mohawk.
* Is he accepted, or taunted?
Depends on the day. Even on the res, he's a bit of an outsider. Keeps to himself. Likes to wander the wild areas of the reservation by himself, learning/tracking the ways of the animals, and unconsciously honing his senses. He has a couple of friends, but often prefers the serenity and wisdom of the tribal elders to the chaos of the other adolescents.
* What does he want to do with his life?
Undecided. But he has considered joining the military, where he could use his outdoor skills as a Recon Scout. Beyond that, he doesn't really know what he could do with his skills. Perhaps become a wilderness guide? But he hasn't really thought it out much. (When you were 19, did you know what you wanted to be when you grew up?)
* Does he know he has an Uncle named Seth?
Perhaps. Has he had his first change yet? My thoughts were that until he has his first change, he only knows that his Mother disappeared, and his father was never around to begin with. Once he does have his change, one of the tribal elders will enlighten him on his Mother's true nature, his uncle Seth, and possibly how his grandparents were murdered. And that knowledge would likely have him set out on a quest (of sorts) to find his mother.
* Does he have any friends on the res?
(See above) Just a couple, and they're not CLOSE friends. Just people he hangs out with occasionally.
Lastly, I received a solid email from Greg on his PC he's named Emma.
The Werewolf character would be a young woman, probably about twenty. She's very politically active, involved in anti-globalization protests and environmental causes. Her most defining feature is her unwillingness to simply accept the way things are or the way others tell her they should be. She's distrustful of authority and "conventional wisdom". She's a Black Fury, sort of Ragabash in her current behavior and thinking, though her true personality is possibly Philodox. In other words, her arc would entail growing out of her immaturity -- the Ragabash-like element -- and into a more sophisticated understanding of the world, representing the emergence of her true Philodox nature.
She's inspired by my sister and her friends. I feel like I know what music she listens to, how she spends her days, how she unwinds with her friends, how she gets around, where she lives, etc.
She isn't self-involved or vain. She is self-righteous, and will not hesitate to cause trouble, but her motivation comes from what she perceives as injustice and exploitation.
I'm thinking she attended a few years of college, which is where she got involved with radical politics, but dropped out either because she was too busy pursuing her causes or because her werewolf nature made school too complicated. At any rate, she might have a mentor at the college, perhaps one of the middle-aged academics mentioned in the Black Fury tribe description. I think she'd be very into Black Fury society, not some angry loner. She imagines all the good the Furies could do (and have done), and feels that organizing and working together is their best bet. That said, she doesn't like hierarchies, and hates the power of entitlement. I think she may have had some very bad experiences with one or more of the Silver Fang.
I realize this may create problems if you go with a quasi-military black ops game. She would never, ever join the military. However, her Rage may manifest sometimes as an impulse toward violence, along the lines of eco-terrorism. In other words, she's not a pacifist and could be persuaded to commit herself to black ops-type work as long as she didn't have to submit to a militaristic chain of command, and as long as it ultimately served a noble end.
The last player, Marc, only sent this email before he lost internet access.
Thank you for sending me this again. I would like to select the were-lion A.J. as my parent. The name of my character will be Dominic (last name?).
By chance, is there a Werewolf book I could use for a short time to read up on the rules a bit? Or perhaps a list of good and websites that could help me become better famililar with our new game?
So far, we have three reasonably interesting PCs, and a character name. I saw potential with Greg's character and her independent lifestyle. She could be a voice for the new order I hoped to establish with the party. With Josh's PC, I saw a character that could act as the bridge between the old and the new. With Cary's PC, I saw a strong link to the Legacy, and many stories could develop from this tie. I sent this information along to the BrainTrust for further discussion. I also sent some follow-up emails asking for clarification and further details.
After poring over the player submissions, I decided to scope out some of my broader ideas and send them to the rest of Et Al:
I want to throw this at you and see what sticks and what bounces off. As I sit and think, the ideas for this campaign are alternatively bright and fuzzy. I'd like some help to bring things together.
Werewolf Legacy:
The game idea is a campaign where the players are children of the Werewolf Black Ops group from the game I ran in TN. They don't know each other before the game begins, but are summoned (not by obvious mystical means) to a remote island off the coast of Miami called Valhalla Island.
The PCs are the youngest children of the Black Ops squad called the Draupnir, but there is an older group of children who are already functioning as a pack (need a name for the pack). I want some friction between the older pack and the PCs, but in the end, they're fighting for the same cause. One example of the friction is that two of the older pack members are twins, and half-brothers of Cary's character. The twins had no idea their Dad had a wife before he died...
Who's the Big Bad?
Fenris and the Midgard Serpent have decided to bring about Ragnarok now to bring the next world to being. Fenris has followers and the Get of Fenris tribe, and the Midgard Serpent has the Rokea (weresharks) and aquatic followers. Notice I didn't say Loki. I think Loki is a neutral force here. He will play both sides off the middle, but in the end he doesn't want the world to "die".
The PCs will work outside the normal order of the Garou to avert the Apocalypse. The Garou as a race work upon old beliefs and old magics. The PCs will use whatever means necessary to get the job done (which will lead to conflict on many levels). The pack will be like orphans, and the parents who "raise" them will be "broken".
I see plots involving the parents of the PCs (i.e. "Where Are They Now?"), and world-traveling ass kicking. Maybe some cell-like paramilitary bad guys trying to bring about the end of the world. The original campaign ended as the Fenrir (followers of Fenris) tried to use Russian nukes to bring about Mutually Assured Destruction scenarios.
As a one shot, I did a reunion game with the previous group where Thor (you remember this, right Norwood?) was stuck in an Umbral Realm and had to die to exit. So, in this game, one of the former PCs (Sloane) is now a priest of Thor trying to bring him back through faith.
Another parent (Lauren) is a servant of Hel, and she will be another gray side in the struggle.
The PCs will initially start out like an X-Men group, brought together and trained by a mentor. The mentor is an old PC (Razz) who is now human, but used to be werewolf (and vampire). Footing the bill for the big "X-Mansion" is an NPC (George) who is now in Harano (huge depression state). Another old PC (Seth) is now the rune-master and mystical guide for the group. One of the trainers is another old NPC (Donovan) who has a companion named Chun who's an Akashic Brother (Mage physical adept-type guy).
The Draupnir were eight rings made by Odin. So, the next generation of this pack will need to end up as eight members (older and newer packs together) by the final game.
Anything clicking with you guys?
Norwood sent me back a reply asking if players could play a non-child of the potential parent list. I replied:
They must play a child of one of the original team, or present a compelling argument for their PC, and I will shoehorn that character in with them (I did so already, allowing one player to play a nephew of one old PC). I'm presenting it as pretty flexible, and if I allow too much leeway, what's the point of running a Legacy game if I don't have a strong vision of that legacy?
Hrm, this sort of constraints wouldn't really appeal to me as a player so this could be an interesting discussion. I'm keen to understand why you want to run this as a legacy game. I would think the best thing about running such a game is a familiarity of the characters involved for you, am I right?
Yes, it is familiarity of the major characters and the setting that drew me to this campaign idea. My original idea was to run it for the first group who played through, but I'm still in MN, so that won't work. Recently, I've had a blast playing in a current "second gen" campaign of L5R that I thought I could clone that fun in this campaign.
While some players may not like treading the steps of previous players' endeavors, I want to evolve the world past the first campaign, and grow the game to the new players' exploits. But I do need to have a touchstone, a starting point. Do you think players would have a problem with established NPCs and working within a storyline that has development not directly affecting them?
With the Black Ops setting, I have a worldview that side steps most of the Werewolf Native American mythology, and also updates the tactics of the magic and culture. While I love the worldview of Werewolf, I don't want to run a game of an ancient culture mired in outdated ideas and fighting a losing battle with no hope. I want to run a game on an epic scale with conflict between old gods and new ideas. I like the theme of the Aesir led by Odin changing with the times to stem the tide of Armageddon.
What are some ideas you guys have about establishing a Norse presence, keeping Ragnarok as a metaplot and theme and using all of this to move stories forward?
What could Fenris and Jorgumandr have planned?
This sparked some debate between Norwood and myself over several issues. I've pasted the conversation between us together as follows:
I found this rather interesting:
"Ragnarok . . . is destined to begin with an epidemic of bad behavior, followed by a three-year outbreak of strife, hatred, and war. Snorri Sturluson, the thirteenth-century politician who recounted this story, described this arduous period as an 'axe-age, a sword-age, a wind-age, a wolf-age,' during which brother will turn against brother, and incest and adultery will be widespread. Afterwards, Fimbulwinter, the ultimate global freeze, will descend upon the earth. For three years, snow, frost, and stinging winds will whip up unceasingly through the air as a prelude to the catastrophes that follow. Then a wolf will swallow the sun, another wolf will swallow the moon, the stars will drop from the sky, and the world tree, Yggdrasil, will be uprooted." ("The Friendly Guide to Mythology," Nancy Hathaway)
I'm not sure what that conjures up for you. For me it brings to mind a nuclear winter.
The end of the last game had the first Black Ops group stopping MAD and I used nuclear winter as the sign of Ragnarok.
The stars dropping reminds me of the wormwood references in Revelations. Also, the mention of Yggdrasil brings to mind the tree of life from Genesis and the flower of immortality from the Gilgamesh epics. Could this tree be a real tree? However, instead of being in the cold north you could place it in the Amazon rainforest. I recall reading once about a tree in Oregon, I think, that has the appearance of a forest. As the roots spread out they rise up as trunks such that the whole Forest is one freakin' huge root system. Perhaps, playing on some of the shamanistic things in Werewolf, Yggdrasil is a spiritual tree with trunks scattered throughout the globe. The agents of Fenris and such ilk are out to destroy these trees so that they can bring about Ragnarok.
While I never liked the idea of Werewolf being a bunch of enviro-terrorism and tree hugging, this puts a slant on it that I love. It's a perfect example of the old ideas (save Mother Gaia) versus the new order (the World Tree is a key to Ragnarok). In the first game I ran some adventures in the Amazon Rainforest. I'd love to return, the seclusion allows for some large-scale battles and unusual enemies.
As to Loki, the book continues with this to say about him:
". . . The trickster Loki, after eons in chains, will burst free and set sail in a ship made entirely from the fingernails of the dead. With the help of the Fire Giants, his daughter Hel, and all the dead souls from her domain, he will cross the Bifrost Bridge, where Heimdall, who can see for a hundred miles and has such acute hearing that he can hear wool grow, stands ready to blow his horn and signal the arrival of Ragnarok. He and Loki will fight; both will die in the encounter. The Bifrost Bridge will go up in flames and Asgard, the home of the gods, will be destroyed. The Fenrir Wolf will swallow Odin and be killed in turn by Odin's son, who will plant his foot on the wolf's jaw and tear it apart. Thor will slay the Midgard Serpent but will die himself, overcome by its venom. The one-handed god Tyr will attack the dog Garm, who guards the gates of the underworld. Both will die in the struggle. In the end, all the gods will die with the exception of the giant Surt, who will set all of creation aflame. Then the earth will sink into the sea, and the human race will perish."
I know you would like to avoid the bleak outcome of the nordic mythos, but it does go well with the bleakness of Werewolf as written by WW. Perhaps, rather than a chance to stop Ragnarok you could have the players delay it.
I don't want the PCs to save the world as much as avert Ragnarok. In fact, I want their victories to be bittersweet. How do you stop a god? How do you save the world when its primal forces believe it is doomed? These are some of the central questions behind a Norse based campaign, and also exist within the spirit of Werewolf: the Apocalypse.
Would they gather secret followers and cults, or have avatars, or influence the world through more subtle means?
The short answer I would offer is to go with secret followers and cults. Perhaps an avatar, but one which at least at first is reluctant (perhaps not powerful enough) to intercept the pcs themselves. I'd build up their adversaries as the players become more comfortable in the game world, with their own characters, and with working as a group. Maybe the PCs occasionally glimpse these avatars initially, but not in a way which allows the PCs to shortcut to the end of the campaign. Perhaps at first they don't even realize who they are dealing with. Also, with subtle means, I think you could link Pentex with these powers. That would allow you to run some more traditional W:ta adventures without having to be too hippy or Shamanesque.
I agree avatars is a good approach, because it gives the players specific personalities to hate, and strive to defeat. I also want to use PENTEX because Greg has stated he wants a corporation to hate, and PENTEX is an excellent candidate, and already has so much material to use!
(I could see one or so of the PCs being approached by these agents before they are knowledgeable about their own abilities. Much like the comic strip in the back of the W:ta book where the Black Spiral Dancers are after the kid.)
I like the temptation angle, and hope to use it early in the game.
As far as PC development, I see a storyline concerning Greg and Josh's PCs. Josh's Pumonca starts out with strong Native American ideals and background, then begins to understand the new order and how the old ways are dying. Greg's PC will be the trailblazer, the "evangelist" towards the new order, and will lead the pack in this direction, coming in conflict not only with PENTEX and the forces of Ragnarok, but probably even the traditional Garou.
One other question I have is how you plan to run the gifts and umbra of W:ta? If I recall correctly you used technology in the previous Werewolf BlackOps game you ran to grant gifts to the PCs. Care to elaborate on this? Also, will there be moon bridges (a natural link with the Rainbow Bridge comes to mind), going umbral, etc.
In the original game, PCs learned gifts through virtual sims. Instead of true animal spirits, technology spirits mimicked the process and downloaded the "tricks" (gifts) to the PCs, and when they gained understanding, they could unlock the secrets of the tricks. I may need to revise this. Any thoughts on how to combine The Matrix with Werewolf?
Moon Bridges are also copied by using a skimmer. The skimmer is a transport that duplicates the speed of a moon bridge, but sends the vehicle directly through the Gauntlet. So, the vehicle travels between the Umbra and the "Real World", from point to point. There are stations across the world set up by the Black Ops group. I liked the updating of travel while harkening back to Moon Bridges. What do you guys think?
After this discussion, I started to really formulate a series of quests based on the party hunting down the roots of Yggdrasil. But it still left questions about how to resolve the search. If they find a tree-root, what the heck do they do with it? The answer to this question (from Grover) and some details on a BrainTrust tangent that developed as the folklore lovers discussed the differences between the Greek and Norse pantheons in the next article

When the New York Knicks shipped Tyson Chandler back to the Dallas Mavericks along with Raymond Felton, they were sacrificing their frontcourt presence. Samuel Dalembert is a serviceable center, but with only him, Andrea Bargnani, Amar'e Stoudemire and Jeremy Tyler holding down the paint, the need for another big was paramount.
Enter Jason Smith, an unrestricted free agent who averaged 9.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 0.9 blocks per game last season with the New Orleans Pelicans. According to RealGM's Shams Charania, the Knicks signed Smith to a one-year deal worth $3.3 million.
None of Phil Jackson's offseason moves will turn the Knicks into a contender next season, but so far all signs point to him being able to at least make New York a more competitive team before Carmelo Anthony's prime is over. Smith is coming off knee surgery, but if he's healthy, he's an athletic big who can stretch the floor and rebound fairly well.
The Jason Smith signing is a smart move by Phil Jackson… Worth taking a flier on an athletic big who can shoot, score & board when healthy.
— Tommy Beer (@TommyBeer) July 16, 2014
The $3.3 million deal represents New York's tax payer's exception and since it's only a one-year deal, this is a brilliant signing that takes a chance on a decent seven-footer who could potentially end up being the Knicks' starting center next season over Dalembert. That'll depend on how head coach Derek Fisher chooses to use Melo, Stoudemire and Bargnani next season, but either way Smith bolsters the frontcourt at a bargain price.
The move is also a good one because even if injuries cut his season short again, that one-year deal won't affect New York's cap space next summer when the Knicks will need to be active in adding star talent to help Carmelo Anthony out.
Since taking over the Knicks as president of basketball operations, Jackson has worked his way into the 2014 NBA Draft and possibly nabbed the steal of the draft with Cleanthony Early; gotten rid of quite possibly the league's worst point guard in Felton; brought in an upgrade in Jose Calderon, not to mention Shane Larkin; gotten Chandler's contract off the books; re-signed one of the league's best offensive players to a deal just under the max; hired a head coach he can mentor and tutor; and taken a chance on Giannis Antetokounmpo's brother, Thanasis Antetokounmpo.
Again, these moves won't appease Melo's desire to play on a championship-caliber team next season, but Knicks fans should like what they've seen out of the Zen Master so far, and this Jason Smith signing is just the latest in a series of positive signs.

I wanted to wish everyone a very happy holidays! I found these cute Xmas ornaments from Rhythms of Grace Gallery and I had to share.
In other news, I'm curious to see what happens to Instagram in the weeks to come. If ads do appear based on my content, it better be an ad for Beyond Meat or Dr. Bronner's. (I curse the day twitter started including promoted tweets for McDonald's in my feed.) We shall see…
I have no problem with people sharing what I post. This account is for all things vegan, and if that opens a few new hearts and minds, I'm happy. :)
Happy Holidays!

do you ever upload as taken with no edit apart from resize or do you feel the digital image needs a bit of work out of camera [shooting raw]
just thought i might try it as i am usually criticized for ott edits[ always think out of camera image is too clean but i could be wrong]
Can you please stop using capitals when you start a forum thread.
As Chris says, Jpegs. should be OK and I've taken some RAWs that would work as well with no more than conversion and re-sizing but that's not usually the case.
As for your being criticized for your OTT editing; I've never seen a complaint about it and I look at all of your stuff.
I'd always reckoned that it was just your style.
Horses for courses.
I had a look at your photograph taken from the Grassmarket looking up Victoria Street and liked it. Sure, some might say that it was grossly overprocessed but, as Jester says, it is your style and, for this image, I think it works.
But the answer to your question is that shooting in Jpeg should apply the settings of your camera and no further editing should be necessary (unless there has been an error or you want to apply a style) but with Raw files, you are going to get a generally flat image that will usually need a little sharpening and maybe a touch of saturation to get it to what you saw with your eye when you pressed the shutter release.
If you shoot in jpeg you are actually letting the camera decide to edit the shot for you.
The process of turning light (wave) into a digital signal (zeros and ones) does not fully capture all of the original data available even with the most advanced electronics. Sensible editing helps replace lost data. (I am not referring to under exposed or blown out data loss here)
Sometimes the loss of information is not visible to the naked eye so you can produce images with little or no editing required I would say that most digital images require editing of some description. I am sure there are many exceptional examples on this site alone that have come straight from the camera.
I shoot Raw & JPG for each shot - and it used to be my personal challenge to make the processed raw better than the in camera jpg.
So yes i'd often upload the out of camera shot as its often really quite good with its standard picture styles anyway.
