Can someone verify this? This just sounds way to farfetched and to much like fanon. ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) current discussion Sep 13, 2007 @ 06:58 (UTC)
- It was confirmed recently that there (was) a Salamander Hanzo, who during the Ninja Wars did some sort of technique that killed a bunch of Konoha ninja except for Team Sarutobi. Impressed that they weren't killed, Hanzo didn't kill the three and told them that he will now call them the Sannin, the Three Legendary Ninja, and as payment for sparing them, they will call themeselves that as well. Then he left to continue to slaughter people I guess.--TheUltimate3 10:58, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
- Heh... Sounds like Harry Potter... Cept a little more twisted... rofl ^_^ ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) current discussion Sep 13, 2007 @ 12:13 (UTC)
I thought his name was Sanshouo no Hanzo meaning Hanzo of the Salamander, referring to his summon, where did "Amphibian Lord" come from? Amphibian Lord is roughly what Hanzo translates as.Rayfire 01:29, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- People should stop using on-line translation sites as a way of getting the Japanese for vertain names. Hanzou's real name in Japanese is 山椒魚の半蔵 which is romanised to "Sanshōuo no Hanzō" and litrally means "Hanzō of the Salamander," or "Salamander Hanzou". I'll correct this in the article. --ShounenSuki 20:51, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
- T_T aaaaagggh... I spent so long just trying to put together the romanization when it was already listed here. On a side note, any tips for turning Kanji into romanji? Rikaichan works fine for finding out word meanings, but I don't have a good method of romanization. I looked up a few tables, but it looked as if they were missing some of the characters used. :/ It took me awhile to figure out that 山 was san. That one most definitely was not on any table I saw.
- Hmm, if you could help, I might be able to make a tool or two here for creating proper romanizations and word translations. ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) current discussion Aug 10, 2008 @ 21:30 (UTC)
- The easiest way is to simply ask someone who can read kana what the furigana in the manga say. Especially with jutsu and names, it's very difficult to say what rōmaji to use. Simply using a dictionary doesn't cut it in a lot of cases.
- I actually have a question to ask you. Two, to be exact.
- 1, I've seen a lot of different ways to write long vowels (especially long Os). Isn't there a manual of style about this?
- 2, Who are the bosses around here? You seem to pretty much run the place, but since I'm rather new here, that could be my misinterpretation.
- That said, I'd like to state again that I can read Japanese and have access to the raw manga and databooks. If there is any uncertainty or dispute, I might be of help. --ShounenSuki 21:40, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
- I've poked people to give input on creating a MoS at Forum:Manual of Style but we don't have an actual one yet.
- As for the romanization, we use the same as Wikipedia, which I believe is either traditional or revised hepburn. Though, we do have one case of the syllabic n which actually follows modified hepburn.
- I'd say the best way to describe it is 'we like macrons', heh...
- We use macrons in the titles, in the romanji fields of the infobox as well as the header, and also in the first occurrence of a name inside of it's own article.
- Basically we use the macron form in any identifiably unique location. ie: Any special location it's only going to show up once. To avoid the extra work when writing articles, we use the latin character without the macron. So Hyūga is Hyuga when being written normally (^_^ Though that particular example is like that anyways because it's already in the English series, heh).
- Well, yes, I am the founder of the wiki. I adopted it some time ago when it was basically dead, and worked on turning it into a good wiki with a good community. I have seen two or three era's of editors already, but the place is still a wiki. So really, it's not about having a 'boss', but being controlled by the community. As an administrator, it's my task to take in the opinions of the community, sort them out and guide them, and help the community discuss and stick to what the community wants.
- I also gave TheUltimate3 sysop awhile back. As an active editor he demonstrated a fairly good and reliable understanding of the informal policies that were passed around the wiki.
- ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) current discussion Aug 11, 2008 @ 00:35 (UTC)
- Thank you for the information. Where might I help with the formation of this manual of style? Such a thing is quite important if you want to maintain some notion of consistency and professionalism. Wikipedia uses Revised Hepburn, by the way.
- I really hope I can make this place a bit better, because to be honest, it's a bit of a mess right now... --ShounenSuki 06:21, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
- ^_^ You should have seen it when it was beginning. Actually, in some relevance Forum:A visual history of the Narutopedia is a little interesting thing I generated from the history of the wiki. As for the MoS, like I said Forum:Manual of Style. ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) current discussion Aug 11, 2008 @ 07:28 (UTC)
It says everyone Hanzo was connected to, however vague that is, was systematically killed. However Tsunade is still alive, and that battle is technically a connection. Where is this source from?
- Pein was presumably only after the people Hanzo knew in Rain village.Jacce 05:54, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Shouldn't it be listed in the list of Hanzo's jutsu that he used the shunshin (teleportation) jutsu? It was seen in chapter 447, p.12 that he used the shunshin jutsu to escape Nagato's gedo mazo technique. It should be listed under his jutsuItachiZero (talk) 06:43, 30 June 2009 (UTC)ItachiZero
- Everyone knows how to use that jutsu, therefore there is no need to list it. Jacce | Talk 07:00, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
Technically they don't. People like Shino, Kiba, Neji, Shikamaru, or Choji have never been shown doing it. It's a teleportation type jutsu from what I understand and only certain people have been known to use those in the series. I think it should atleast be listed in his jutsu dropbox as he was seen using it...ItachiZero (talk) 18:53, 30 June 2009 (UTC)ItachiZero
- Body Flicker is an Academy level jutsu, which basically means any ninja with one known exception is capable of doing it. That is why it's not listed. And it's not teleporation, it's just really fast movement with a buff of smoke to be a distraction.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 19:08, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
hanzo leader before timeskip
boys and girls,hanzo was leader of ame before the timeskip,as we can clearly see that ninja from ame before the timeskip don't have a slash on their forehead protector like the ones led by nagato have.188.8.131.52 (talk)
Konoha said Deva Path(yahiko) was 20-25yrs and we know corpses don't actually age. Most likely Yahiko was 25 when he died. If we assume The Ame Orphans were the same age as Minato, Chouza and Shibi then that means that he died the same year the Kyuubi attacked, which means the Ame Civil War didn't start until very soon after that. if we assume Yahiko and what not were actually 20, then that means Yahiko died during the 3rd shinobi world war and around the time of the Kanabi Bridge Incident. ItachiWasAHero (talk) 02:38, June 28, 2013 (UTC)
I think it might be better to show both the manga image and anime image in the article. The seemingly minor difference in the colouring of his eyes make for a huge difference in appearance. --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 20:24, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
- Image:Hanzo.jpg...i wouldn't know where to put it. :S..--AlienGamer--Talk (contribs)-- 20:26, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
- If it were up to me, I'd simply put it back in the infobox. Image policy be damned, I'm getting sick and tired of seeing perfectly good images being replaced by terrible quality images or images with blatant mistakes, only because they're in colour. --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 20:34, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
- Quality Is Quite Good (Thats a direct insult to the uploader which in this case is me)
- They have permission frm the author (Rem i mentioned the same thing with the 3 tail's pic, which u denied...But in the latest artbook M.K drew it like it appeared in the Anime proving my point)
- Not only is it color, its actually better quality
- ..--AlienGamer--Talk (contribs)-- 20:39, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
- First of all, I'd like to apologise. I didn't mean to insult you and do appreciate all the work you did for the wiki. I wasn't specifically talking about this image when I mentioned the bad quality. I also admit that the anime image of the Three-Tails isn't as bad as it was when we could only compare it to the coloured manga image. However, there are still several obvious differences. Also, there is no evidence of any cooperation between Kishimoto-sensei and the anime creators. In fact, the huge amount of mistakes and differences seem to prove otherwise.
- The only problem I have with this image is the blatant mistake made with the colouring of Hanzō's eyes. --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 21:06, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
- If it were up to me, I'd simply put it back in the infobox. Image policy be damned, I'm getting sick and tired of seeing perfectly good images being replaced by terrible quality images or images with blatant mistakes, only because they're in colour. --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 20:34, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
Honestly. Because it was that difficult.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 21:06, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
In my opinion I preferred his image from the manga, it gave him a more dangerous and ominous look with black eyes and white hair, the anime rendering of him seems to sap a lot of his character from the manga away simply due to color schemes of the hair and eyes, truth be told I was anxious to see him portrayed in the anime with the manga look, but I felt somewhat disappointed at his... "softer" appearance, I can't say I'm the only one who feels this way either. --Anonymous 21:19 October 10, 2009 (UTC)
Image Revisited
Seeing how the Impure World technique gives him a black sclera that he already had in life and we don't know his actual iris color, would it be possible to replace both images with a single one of his ressurected self, of course only if there are no cracks and what so ever on his skin as there ussualy is when using this technique? --Gojita (talk) 10:45, August 2, 2012 (UTC)Gojita
- Considering this has been done for all the other reanimated shinobi, I don't see why Hanzo's page would be any different. --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | My Wiki | Channel 10:49, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
Possibly Gojita, but if the shade of black is wrong, I doubt the community will go for it, Hanzō's eyes are supposed to be completely black not the shaded black like Edo Tensei's tend to have. But still mayhaps the animators will oblige us and fix their errors in a flashback or something.--Cerez365™(talk) 10:54, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
- how can the shade be wrong when we don't have a colored image to compar to begin with??? --Gojita (talk) 11:00, August 2, 2012 (UTC)Gojita
- Dead vs Alive. Really my whole take on this matter.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 11:22, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
Was just about to say that Gojita. :P The episode sucked for any images :/ --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | My Wiki | Channel 11:44, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
There's such things as variances in shading. Either way, discussion's moot now.--Cerez365™(talk) 11:54, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
- I wouldnt leave it be until we at least look at the options, so if anyone could at least provide some images to look over first. Also i know there are variations in shading so could you please elaborate on that one? :) --Gojita (talk) 12:00, August 2, 2012 (UTC)Gojita
- Hanzō's eyes are depicted as pitch black. Edos are usually lighter than that. hence it wouldn't be an accurate depiction if you used an edo image with his eyes light. In this case his eyes were pitch black then white when he was alive. Rendering both unusable.--Cerez365™(talk) 12:03, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
Fire Style?
Y does he have the fire style icon on his page? I'm removing it rite now cuz there has been no mention of him having a fire style--Moiz1224 (talk) 02:41, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
- He says himself that he used a Fire Release technique in chapter 447. --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 12:24, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
delete this '7 trivia' i didnt notice the acording to ^^; --KiumaruHamachi (talk) 16:56, October 27, 2009 (UTC)KiumaruHamachi
Hanzo vs the Sannin (never before seen fight in the anime)
I don't remember if this fight was in the manga but i do remember it wasn't in the anime. Hanzo vs the Sannin http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:KiumaruHamachi, my talkpage, the signature thing doesn't work for me sorry. Do u think we can get alittle morepictures of Hanzo and the sannins from the video?
Heres the vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSvL5EWqyDASaimaroimaru (talk) 20:47, December 12, 2009 (UTC)
In the anime it is shown that he uses an teleportation technique before he got hit by nagato. Maybe he isnt dead because his corpse was actually never shown.
- He is dead. Nagato killed him but it is never shown in the anime nor manga and some databook tells it. --KiumaruHamachi (talk) 23:18, August 12, 2010 (UTC)KiumaruHamachi
Teleportation Technique
Can someone please edit Hanzo's infobox to include the "Teleportation Technique" that he used in the Anime to escape from Nagato's summoning? I would do it myself, however since the infobox's have changed, I no longer know how to edit them. Dragon Hacker (talk) 07:45, August 15, 2010 (UTC)
- First of all, he used it in the manga as well, second of all, most, if not all, characters can use it, which is why we don't add it into the infoboxes. Shisui is an exception because of his nickname. Jacce | Talk | Contributions 07:50, August 15, 2010 (UTC)
- So your saying that the Teleportation Technique is exactly the same as the Body Flicker Technique? 184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:29, August 15, 2010 (UTC)
Hanzo using water release
In the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSvL5EWqyDA video he uses the water replacement jutsu so shouldn´t it be listed in his jutsu "box".--Torune (talk) 18:23, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
- From what I remember and heard just now, he said Shunshin (Body Flicker Technique). Jacce | Talk | Contributions 18:25, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
Look at the video from 1:13 to 1:20 and you will see the water replacement jutsu--Torune (talk) 19:14, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
- He says shunshin no jutsu, which is the the Body Flicker Technique.--Deva 27 (talk) 19:16, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
But it clearly is water that is coming from when jiraya´s hair spikes hit him. maybe he says bunshin jutsu or something similar--Torune (talk) 19:19, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
- In that case he would have said "Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu". But even translators heard "shunshin no jutsu". And Konoha ninjas is surrounded by smoke or leafs, that is just how the technique works. Jacce | Talk | Contributions 19:24, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for telling me this i really appreciate it cause Hanzo is my favorite person in Naruto.
His breathing device
His breathing device i don´t know what it´s named but because that almost every fire jutsu is perfomed with the mouth so shouldn´t it be kinda hard for him to use fire jutsu without his expolosive tags--Torune (talk) 18:23, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
- Your point? Jacce | Talk | Contributions 18:26, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
Ok that was a bad point but the things is i think he has the affinity for both water and fire cause of that --Torune (talk) 19:13, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
Kusarigama or Kusarigamajutsu
Shouldn't the title of the section that concerns Hanzō's use of his kusarigama be Kusarigamajutsu, rather than the Kusarigama that is used now? Not only is Kusarigamajutsu an accepted term but it denotes the use of a Kusarigama, rather than the weapon itself, of which Hanzō's isn't particular unique in comparison to other Kusarigama nor does it represent what the actual section is about, as the information refers instead to how it is wielded. Also, Kusarigamajutsu would be more in line with the Kenjutsu sections that already appear on various other character articles, which I assume was chosen over something like Katana or Sword partly because of the reasons stated above. Blackstar1 (talk) 18:04, March 10, 2011 (UTC)
I believe I read somewhere that Hanzo was originally a samurai from the land of iron. is there any truth in this as i noticed it's not mentioned in the article--188.8.131.52 (talk) 14:54, March 12, 2011 (UTC)
- No as far as we know he was always a ninja. He just fought Mifune in the past who is a samurai.--Cerez☺ (talk) 15:18, March 12, 2011 (UTC)
Appearance Section
I think this section should have an image. If it were me I would include a picture of him without his mask on--184.108.40.206 (talk) 14:20, March 23, 2011 (UTC)
Grave/no grave
In the manga, Mifune never mentions if Hanzo have been proberly burried or not, but he does so at the end of episode 272 and even imply that he would give a prober one himself. Could we mention this in the trivia section somehow? --Gojita (talk) 12:03, August 2, 2012 (UTC)Gojita

"Discerning the Common Good in a Time of Economic Flux and Change"
Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011 from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. in the UC Forum AB
Despite the considerable federal collectivist activities to try and halt the economic downturn, the debates that were raised in the recent election campaigns, particularly with the emergence of groups such as the Tea Party movement suggest that across the state and country alike tensions are re-emerging in relation to the sense of what constitutes the 'common good' for our communities and wider society. But the Common Good is a cornerstone of Catholic Social Thought and Practice and is found in analogous forms in the other major world faiths. How should such traditions respond to recent developments? These and related issues were addressed in a roundtable panel discussion.

In a Dutch Auction, the selling price of a product is repeatedly lowered every day until product is sold out. As a result of the decreasing purchase price the product deal becomes more enticing to other buyers.
Act quickly to purchase at this "special price" before inventory is depleted and the product is sold out.
In a world of virtual realities, these offer something different; simple reality. Synthetic bells and whistles of today's toys give way to hands-on exploration.

Community service may soon become mandatory for high school students.
That's if Gov. Blagojevich makes a decision would require all students to perform community service before they graduate.
The governor says the requirement could instill good values in students and pull them away from television.
Illinois would become the second state to adopt a community service graduation requirement.

Chris Evans is not the first actor to have exciting abdominals and a mathematically handsome face. There has to be a better reason that this 25-year-old, who dropped his pants decorated in whipped cream, cherry nipples, and what can be described as a banana tail in 2001's Not Another Teen Movie, is now getting work with the kind of stars and directors who make serious careers. His appeal, a combination of easy humor and a heartthrob's confidence, was apparent even in the otherwise artless Fantastic Four, a film he stole as Johnny Storm, a man who flies and shoots fire from his hands. He's a real dude—and a likable one. A passable high-school athlete from Sudbury, Massachusetts, with a background at theater camp, Evans likes to laugh and when he curses it's not hard or mean but fun. His next wave of projects includes the Fantastic Four sequel, the film of the best-seller The Nanny Diaries, and the claustrophobic space thriller Sunshine. That's a little more range than mere muscle allows for.
MARK JACOBS You could easily have been a good-looking actor who doesn't get the right roles. How are you doing it?
CHRIS EVANS There are so many variables. Sometimes you can be shit lucky and have just one great audition. Sometimes you're the best guy for the part but you can't get your shit together in the room and it goes out the window. Maybe your agent is a golfing buddy of the director.
MJ And for you?
CE I can make the rent now so I don't feel like I have to work. Good careers are not about what you do but what you don't do. And this is when I have to be picky. Directors are everything. If P.T. Anderson asks me to be in a movie that I think is absolute shit, I'm doing it. I also have a great agent who values me and who I don't think would pawn me off on The Fast and the Furious 4 to lock down a nice paycheck.
MJ Talk about Sunshine, which is directed by Danny Boyle, who did Trainspotting and 28 Days Later.
CE It's a sci-fi suspense film about eight astronauts who go into space to launch a bomb the size of Manhattan into the sun to keep it artificially burning. It's very psychological. If you were part of a team of astronauts going to save mankind you might become drunk with power. People start to crack up.
MJ Are directors always trying to get you to take off your shirt?
CE Yeah. It's tricky. My new publicist is like, no more photo shoots with your shirt off. You don't want to end up pigeonholed as a beefcake. But almost every movie I've been in, they get my fucking shirt off. I guess anyone with a good career has some history that they aren't proud of. I had a fucking banana in my ass! That wasn't my shining moment. [Laughs]
MJ How did that scene happen?
CE Normally there's a makeup lady but that day they brought in a makeup guy because he's got to be all up in my junk. I'm just like, "Hey dude, what's your name? I guess we're going to get real close." It was a foam banana and they cut one end into a triangular wedge and we had to go behind this curtain in my little towel and my little nylon sock. He didn't want to be doing it any more than I did. I was like, alright, and kind of leaned a little bit and he slathered it with some spirit gum and just kind of wedged it in there. This is my fucking film career! [Laughs]
MJ Are you guys still in touch?
CE [Laughs] He's my valentine every year. We talk on New Year's.
MJ How often do you go to the gym?
CE I try to go every day. I don't consider myself some meathead who's drinking protein shakes and is like, "Where's my glutamine?" I go to the gym and lift weights because if I don't, I get thin quickly. If you saw my thighs you'd laugh, dude. I'm just a skinny guy naturally. It's easy for me to lose weight but if they're like, "You've got to play a marine" and I haven't been in the gym, I don't know if I can sell the part.
MJ Do women like your chest hair?
CE That's funny, man, because I've had girlfriends who hated it but other girls who loved it. It's hit or miss. You never know.
MJ What's your type?
CE Sandra Bullock. Isn't that ridiculous? I'm so hung up on her! I saw her in Speed in seventh grade and she was my lady. I loved her. Once I was standing next to her at an awards show but I got nervous and had to get out of there. I started to sweat.
MJ So is it going too fast or are you handling it?
CE I wouldn't want it to go any faster. Maybe in a couple of years I'll find out that this was too fast and that I'm in so deep that I can't imagine not living this lifestyle. It would be telling to see how I would handle it if I lost it all tomorrow. If you're not cool in life without something you're never going to be cool in life with it.
MJ So enjoy it.
CE Enjoy it and be endlessly grateful. If you can't be grateful, you're an asshole. The truth is you can wake up every day and decide whether you want to be in a good mood or a bad mood. I truly believe that. It's up to me. Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you react to it.

Uhm, could someone clean up this obviously false information, this jutsu doesn't take the user to another dimension. This is just another one of those mental planes where characters interact mind to mind, just like the one created by Tsukuyomi, and the place in Naruto's mind where he talks to the Nine-Tailed Fox. ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) Jun 22, 2009 @ 16:57 (UTC)
Real Name
According to the anime, would not Fushi Tensei 2 jutsus? (Furofushi no Jutsu and the Tensei Gishiki) —This unsigned comment was made by Jiatsuna.Kobito (talk • contribs) .
when he switches bodies does he take the keikeygenkai from his previous bodies as well? —This unsigned comment was made by 188.8.131.52 (talk • contribs) .
- No one knows. The only people who can possibly answer that is Kishimoto himself. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 19:00, January 8, 2011 (UTC)
- It would make sense. After 3 years, the body starts rejecting him. And I cant believe, Orochimaru would go through so much trouble to gain the Sharingan (First Itachi, thereby abandoning Akatsuki. Second Sasuke, which was the main reason he infiltrated the Chunin Exams) if he couldnt keep it permanently188.8.131.52 (talk) 23:21, January 30, 2011 (UTC)Timiursa
Wrong name? Watch:
[1] Nikutai Tensei no Jutsu would be correct. —This unsigned comment was made by 126.96.36.199 (talk • contribs) .
- A Portuguese IP, wrong about a name? I'm, like, so surprised. ~SnapperTo 16:24, March 21, 2011 (UTC)
- Don't be too harsh, the Japanese actually does say body reincarnation technique (肉体転生術, nikutai tenseijutsu). It sounds like it's the name of the type of technique Fushi Tensei belongs to. —ShounenSuki (talk | contribs | translations) 18:12, March 21, 2011 (UTC)
Body Time
You said that orochimaru had to transfer his soul to that unknown female's body due to itachi severing his left hand...but it happened when orochimaru left akatsuki,9 or 10 years ago(in shippuden's timeline),and u also said that he left this body after fighting with the third hokage,which happened 3 or 4 years ago. But guys,orochimaru has to switch bodies of three in three years,then it's impossible for him to keep 6 or 7 years inside the same host.--22.214.171.124 (talk) 16:40, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
- The minimal interval between changes is three years. Everything he did preparing Sasuke implies he can stay in a body for a longer while if the body is stronger and able to sustain him. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:46, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
What Ombi said.--Elveonora (talk) 16:49, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
hmm got it,thanks--184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:49, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
Snake not a part of the Jutsu
Look at the techniques description, Living Corpse Reincarnation sends the users soul into someones body, and when Orochimaru does this he reveals his true form as a giant snake, which his article tells us was the end result of many experiments. Basically, Orochimaru turned himself into a giant snake, with the ability to create a normal body when needed, but he sheds that body when he prepares to take another one.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 13:07, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- I agree this wasn't used at all. I did mention it in articles though because there's none for the white snake itself but not because he used it. Alsooo check Talk: To Be Myself please. Sincerely, Confused.--Cerez365™(talk) 13:10, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm confused as well. -.- —IndxcvNovelist (Talk to Me|My Wiki) 13:12, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- This article actually gives us the best way to describe the white snake, Power of the White Snake. This article should be linked when referring to Orochimaru's modifications, not the Living Corpse Reincarnation.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 13:14, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, seems the best idea, and how about Kabuto? —IndxcvNovelist (Talk to Me|My Wiki) 13:16, May 9, 2012 (UTC)

He channeled Snake-Orochimaru out of his chest and send it into attack, and then attacked with that body shedding thing, a technique we already knew he could do. Snake-Orochimaru did nothing of importance in this chapter except serve as a way for Itachi to use Naruto's Talk no Jutsu.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 13:19, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
Ah I forgot about that article it's a much better choice than the technique article.--Cerez365™(talk) 13:24, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- I see TU3. So we're going to add Kabuto as the user of this or not? —IndxcvNovelist (Talk to Me|My Wiki) 13:27, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- No. He didn't shoot his soul into another body, he just made Snake-Orochimaru come out of his chest.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 13:30, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
The snake was never apart of this jutsu, it is Orochimaru's true form. It's description shouldn't even be on this page, and the picture should have been changed long ago.--Deva 27 13:47, May 9, 2012
- With the image change thing. Aye? or maybe something with Orochimaru in it.--Cerez365™(talk) 13:51, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
@Deva Um, does he not use his true form to swallow his desired host to initiate the jutsu? That would make it an integral part of the technique. Skitts (talk) 14:03, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- That's the best image we got of the technique. As we don't actually see how the technique starts.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 14:07, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
- It gives the wrong impression though that the snake is actually the technique. I think an image of inside the world itself and just mentioning that he enters his true form should be enough.--Cerez365™(talk) 14:28, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
So looking through all the scenes this was used, I think that's the best shot available. It shows several people that have been absorbed(?) etc. Apart from that there's a scene where Orochimaru is going towards Sasuke but it just looks like pink blobs because their faces aren't visible any at all.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:33, May 9, 2012 (UTC)
alternative usage/form
Shouldn't we mention that in case of WZ clone it occurred differently? Before it was:
- Orochimaru transforms into his snake form and comes out of his host body
- Swallows a new body, transfers soul and the snake body dies
Now it was:
- Orochimaru didn't transform himself, but instead a bit differently looking snake came out of his mouth and entered WZ's body through mouth like a parasite

Tenenbaum told The Associated Press on Thursday that she will leave the Washington position Dec. 1 for a job with the firm Nelson, Mullins, Riley & Scarborough.
Tenenbaum said she decided earlier this year that she didn't want another term leading the agency, charged with protecting the public from potential injuries or deaths from use of consumer products. The former South Carolina education superintendent said she's ready to return home.
"I think I have done my best, and I'm ready for a new challenge," Tenenbaum said in a telephone interview.
She said she will work in the law firm's offices in both Columbia and Washington on issues involving product safety and education. She added that she will advise clients on regulator matters, recalls and litigation.
"I want to work with manufacturers on how to avoid mistakes that injure people," Tenenbaum said.
She also said she looked forward to working with former U.S. Education Secretary Dick Riley, a member of the firm and former South Carolina governor, on education issues.
"I will be working with the state Department of Education and school districts throughout the country, and it's very exciting to be involved in education policy again," Tenenbaum said.
Tenenbaum was nominated by President Obama and sworn into office in June 2009 as chairwoman of the Consumer Product Safety Commission. She was charged with implementing the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act adopted by Congress the previous year.
"We passed 50 new rules that really protect children and families in America," she said, pointing to rules requiring testing of all children's products, reducing the amount of lead in those products and developing "the strongest crib standards in the world."
The agency still faces challenges, she said, and she said she worried during her tenure that the "partisan politics of Congress came over to the commission."
"I'm disappointed that I couldn't get everything done in four and a half years," she said. She said areas that still need attention include new rules for portable generators that reduce the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning, as well as regulation of all-terrain vehicles.

Drug Wars
this wiki
Drug Wars is a side mission in The Ballad of Gay Tony. In these side missions, Luis Lopez helps his friends Armando Torres and Henrique Bardas in build up their drug empire, by stealing it from other drug gangs in a variety of ways. There are 50 drug wars, similar to TLAD's Gang Warfare, introduced to Luis by Armando after completing the mission Corner Kids. Their starting locations are marked on the map by pill icons. They become progressively more difficult, but the money earned increases as well. Every 10 Drug Wars completed gives the player a weapon in Luis Lopez' Northwood Apartment. Completing 25 Drug Wars will raise the player's completion percentage and also unlock the "Snow Queen" achievement/trophy. The Drug Wars are infinite even after completing 50 of them the players can still play the missions; this was likely made by Rockstar to provide players with playable activity after the primary story missions and other side-missions, required for completion percentage, as well as the ability to earn in-game cash for weapons and the like.
Drug War enemies
There are 5 different gangs Luis and the others will attempt to rob. Each of these gangs drive their vehicles with unique paintjobs usually reminiscent of the gang's colors.
- The Korean Mob
- The Jamaican Yardies
- The Italian Mafia (Gambetti, Pavano, Messina, Lupisella, Ancelotti, and Pegorino crime familes/syndicates)
- The Russian Mafia (Petrovic, Faustin, and Bulgarin crime families/syndicates)
- The Spanish Lords
Completing Drug Wars will reward Luis with weapons which will spawn at his safehouse.
- 10 Wars completed: A Pistol .44 spawns on the coffee table of Luis' safehouse. The weapon spawns after completing the mission "Boulevard Baby" and the necessary Drug Wars.
- 20 Wars completed: An Advanced Machine Gun (M249) spawns in the kitchen of Luis' safehouse. The weapon spawns after completing the mission "Going Deep " and the necessary Drug Wars.
- 25 Wars completed: The 'Snow Queen' achievement/trophy, worth 20G for the Xbox 360 and a bronze trophy for the PS3, is unlocked.
- 30 Wars completed: An Automatic Shotgun (AA-12), loaded with green explosive shells, spawns in the kitchen of Luis' safehouse. The weapon spawns after completing the mission "High Dive" and the necessary Drug Wars.
- 40 Wars completed: Sticky Bombs spawn on the coffee table of Luis' safehouse. The weapon spawns after completing the mission "Bang Bang " and the necessary Drug Wars.
- All 50 Wars completed: A Gold SMG spawns on the dining table of Luis' safehouse. The weapon spawns after completing the mission "Departure Time " and the necessary Drug Wars.
Drug War variations
- Hijack: These missions require the player to steal a stationary drug loaded vehicle, often located within a drug gang's compound. These are the only time a police sting can be encountered. These often require the player to eliminate the drug gang in order to safely steal the vehicle. These vehicles vary from sports cars, boats, and helicopters.
- Convoy: These missions require the player to steal a moving drug vehicle, usually protected by trailing vehicles as part of a convoy. Once the attack on the vehicle begins the drug vehicle will attempt to speed away and its escorts will attack Luis and his friends. The player must take care not to destroy the vehicle, otherwise the drugs are destroyed with it, failing the mission. However, as long as the enemies are driving the drug vehicle, it is invulnerable and can't be set on fire; only the passengers can be shot down. Convoys consist of cars and boats.
- Stickup: These missions require the player to crash a drug deal between two gangs. The player must obtain a gang's drugs, and optionally the other gang's money with the drugs in a duffel bag carried by one of the gang, in their compound. The player must eliminate the gang one by one until the drugs are dropped, and continue to kill enemies until the one carrying the money meant of the deal drops it, which Armando or Henrique will comment on. On harder missions the dealers will attempt to escape, and if they do, the mission is failed. Occasionally, the two gangs can be made to fight each other when the initial attack is done while out of sight, such as with a sniper from a distance. One gang member will drop body armor as a pickup when killed.
- Stash: These missions require the player to steal a gang's drug stash, which is located within their perimeter.
All types will involve the gang chasing the player whilst driving to the drop off point. If the player moves too far from the drugs, or the dealers holding the drugs escape, the mission is failed.
Also, on rare occasions, the drugs can sometimes seem to have nobody guarding them. However, this turns out to be a police sting, and the player must evade a 2-5 star wanted level.
Tips and Tricks
- Once you have the drugs, immediately leave the scene and return the product. There is no bonus for killing the remaining gang members, and continuing to fight may attract unwanted police attention.
- If things get too heated after you have the drugs, you can leave without Armando and Henrique. After you get far enough away, they will spawn in a car behind you and follow. They'll even fire at pursuing enemies.
- The black Cavalcade that spawns in the beginning of each individual mission is armoured; it can withstand an insane amount of gunfire, which is useful for dealing with enemies that are chasing and firing at you as you try to return the drug load. You may also use the Cavalcade as heavy cover during the fight, keep it for your own use after the Drug War or use it again in another Drug War.
- In later missions, enemies will begin to throw Molotov Cocktails. Watch out for these people, as they can hit you and the guys with unerring accuracy, but can be used to your advantage as they also tend to hit their own men as well and even commit suicide.
- A very easy way to finish drug wars is to use any vehicle that has lots of health and built-in weapons, for example, the APC is very durable as it takes a lot of continuous shooting to destroy or the Buzzard with miniguns and missiles, but it is only effective in the stash or the stickup because you have to highjack vehicles on the other missions.
- Whenever there are multiple pursuing cars after you, use sticky bombs to kill them off quicker.
- An alternate strategy for disposing of the pursuing cars is to exit your getaway car and fire a few explosive shells from your shotgun, this allows for more accuracy and may save ammunition.
- When you first pull up to the drug location, try to get the jump on them by using the gang's cars against them, one rocket, or a well thrown grenade/sticky bomb can take out 2-10 gang members in one shot, making easier for you to grab the drugs and escape (Note: this method can only be used in "The Stash" or "The Stickup" Drug Wars as it dosen't matter if you destroy gang vehicles).
- At number 35 and higher, Drug War gang members are very tough and can take a large amount of bodily hits before being killed, so it is best to aim for the head, as one shot will kill them.
- If the hijack mission requires you to steal a helicopter, pursuing enemies will chase you in helicopters. For an easier escape, land and destroy the enemy helicopter with an explosive weapon.
- When you get close to the gang take them out from far away with the Advanced Sniper and pick them off one by one and don't worry if they get to close to you because Armando and Henrique will kill them.
- During the "Stickup", the two gangs will sometimes attack each other. This can be used to your advantage, as they will be busy fighting themselves, greatly reducing the amount of firepower that is targeting you and can allow you to pick up a dropped stash without being targeted.
Unique Paint jobs
Most of the cars seen during the Drug Wars have exclusive paint jobs:
- Blue with pink undertone
- Black with green stripes
- Black with green and yellow/Jamaican
- White with grey stripes
- Maroon
Those paint jobs are used on: Buffalo, Super GT, Bullet GT, Dinghy, Huntley Sport, Sultan RS, Presidente, Blista Compact, Tampa, Comet, Super Diamond and Banshee.
- Most of the cars seen during the Drug Wars have exclusive colors. This includes cars which have blue topsides and deep maroon undersides or Jamacian colors on cars that normally don't support them.
- Armando and Henrique's weapons increase quality incrementally with each drug war. Eventually, they will be armed with Carbine Rifles and SMGs. After 50 Drug Wars, they are armed with Advanced MG's and Gold SMG's.
- When the drug vehicle only has two seats, either Armando or Henrique (usually Henrique) will get in the nearest vehicle and follow you back to the drop off point.
- If you leave Armando Torres and Henrique Bardas behind, they will both automatically follow you in a random vehicle individually.
- Armando and Henrique do not need to survive in order for the mission to succeed, only Luis needs to stay alive. After the mission is complete, everything will be as if they never died in the first place (If only one dies, the other will state that the "dead" one was injured badly enough that they'll need to go to the hospital). And if both die, Luis will comment about them leaving him alone.
- Henrique and Armando each have colossal amounts of health during any Drug War, equivalent to Niko Bellic or Patrick McReary's in the mission Ladies Half Price.
- The drugs may be marijuana, because if you die by falling from a building and hit the ground, the bag holding the drugs will burst, scattering leaves onto the ground.
- One odd thing that happens during Drug Wars is, after you have gotten away from the chasing gang members/police, when you drive around you'll notice that parked cars still spawn but, there are almost no cars driving on the road, it will stay like this until you deliver the drugs/drug vehicle.
- The player can only get a maximum of a two star wanted level, no matter what they do, wanted levels are really hard to get as well, as doing most things to attract police attention (carjacking, killing, etc) will not work.
- In very rare occasions, when in a Super Drop Diamond, Henrique will follow Luis and Armando driving another Super Drop Diamond.
- After doing 30 Drug Wars and unlocking the AA-12, the message, that pops up to tell you that you unlocked it, will say Shotgun-EX.
- Strangely enough, during the Castle Garden "stash" drug war, there will be a Maverick leaving the top of the building. If you destroy it, you will fail the drug war and the pop-up message will state "You lost the shipment", although the Maverick has already dropped the shipment on the building already.
- Alot of the dialogue said by Luis, Henrique and Armando during the missions is frequently repeated with annoying results.

House Tyrell
this wiki
Wardens of the South
Lords Paramount of the Reach
- "Luckily for us Tyrells, our blood runs quite warm."
- ―Margaery Tyrell
House Tyrell is one of the Great Houses of Westeros. It rules over the Reach, a vast, fertile, and heavily-populated region of south-western Westeros, from the castle at Highgarden. It is currently led by Lord Mace Tyrell. His heir Loras is a noted tournament knight (and secretly, the lover of Lord Renly Baratheon). Mace's daughter Margaery married Renly when he crowned himself king, to cement the alliance between Renly and her father. Following Renly's death, Margaery has been betrothed to King Joffrey Baratheon, to secure a new royal alliance for House Tyrell.
The Tyrell sigil is a golden rose on a green field. Their motto is, "Growing Strong".
BackgroundHouse Tyrell rose to prominence as one of the strongest noble houses in the Reach. The Tyrells became senior servants of House Gardener, the Kings of the Reach. They served them for centuries as castellans of the royal castle Highgarden, and even intermarried with the royal house. When King Mern IX was slain on the Field of Fire by Aegon the Conqueror, his steward Harlen Tyrell surrendered Highgarden and the Reach. Aegon rewarded Harlen by making him Lord of Highgarden and Lord Paramount of the Reach.[1]
House Tyrell's overall disposition is adequately represented by their sigil of a rose: a rose's beauty often hides the fact that it has thorns. The Tyrells do try to be just and fair most of the time, however this often lulls their enemies into thinking that like the Starks, they are utterly beholden to honorable conduct. In reality, the Tyrells are just as cunning as the Lannisters in court politics and intrigue, though they often prefer a more subtle approach. Thus they strike a pragmatic balance between the Starks' honor and the Lannisters' ruthlessness.Throughout history, House Tyrell has played by the strategy of following the sure path, siding with whoever is most likely to win in any conflict. During the Targaryen Conquest, they surrendered Highgarden to the invading forces of Aegon the Conqueror, and in return the Tyrells were elevated as the new Lords Paramount of the Reach. During Robert's Rebellion, House Tyrell remained loyal to House Targaryen, as Robert Baratheon was a rebel unlikely to win, and the Tyrells owed their rule of the Reach to the Targaryens. Forces of House Tyrell managed to inflict the only loss Robert suffered during the war, albeit an indecisive one, at the Battle of Ashford. However, the vast army and resources of House Tyrell were tied up on a siege of Storm's End (held for Robert by his brother; Stannis Baratheon). After the Mad King's death, the Tyrells surrendered and swore fealty to Robert Baratheon.
In the current generation, House Tyrell is a stable and honestly loving family, with none of the internal rivalries that are to be found in House Lannister and House Baratheon. Thus the relationships between Lord Mace and his children, and between siblings like Loras and Margaery, are genuine and uncomplicated.
Military strength
The Reach is the most fertile and populous region of Westeros, allowing House Tyrell to gain immense wealth (through taxation of the large population) and also to muster an enormous army. The Tyrells can typically raise and equip almost twice as many soldiers as any other House in Westeros.
Season 1
Ser Loras Tyrell suggests to his lover, Renly Baratheon, that the Tyrells would support a claim for the Iron Throne made by Renly with all of their formidable military and economic might. Renly is initially reluctant to make such a claim.[2] However, when Eddard Stark spurns his aid, Renly flees King's Landing by night with Loras.[3] He is crowned King in Highgarden and lays claim to the Iron Throne.[4]
Season 2
The Tyrells and Renly have raised an army of 100,000 men to support Renly's claim to the throne, outnumbering any of the other claimants' armies by a significant number. Robb Stark sends his mother to treat with Renly and seek an alliance against the Lannisters.[5] To cement his new alliance with House Tyrell, Renly marries Lord Mace's only daughter, Loras' sister Margaery Tyrell.[6] Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish then arrives at Renly's camp as an envoy from King Joffrey. While in camp, he engages Margaery in conversation, alluding to the fact that Renly is actually a homosexual, trying to lure her allegiance (and that of House Tyrell) away from Renly. To Baelish's surprise, he finds that Margaery is not intimidated by him or his court intrigues. Baelish also did not anticipate that, as it turns out, Margaery is fully aware that Renly is in a homosexual relationship with her own brother Loras, but she does not care. Margaery honestly believed that supporting Renly's claim to the kingship was in the best interests of House Tyrell, so she agreed to the paper marriage. Indeed, she actively supported the idea.[7] However, in private, Margaery also shrewdly explains to Renly that he has to impregnate her, as the best way to truly cement the alliance between their two Houses is if "you put your baby in my belly."[8]
King Renly is then assassinated in his tent under mysterious circumstances. As Ser Loras stands vigil over his body, Margaery urges him that it is not safe and they must return with their army to Highgarden. Littlefinger then arrives in the tent, and while Loras is angry with him and overcome with grief, Littlefinger calmly explains to him that Stannis' army will arrive within the hour, and when they do, the Tyrell's former allies in the Stormlands will fight each other over who gets to hand Loras and Margaery over to Stannis as prisoners. Margaery agrees with the sense of what Littlefinger is saying, and that if they have any hope of getting revenge on Stannis for Renly's death (which they accurately suspect he was responsible for) they must live to fight another day. After Loras leaves, Baelish tries to assess the position of Margaery and of House Tyrell. Noting her marriage to Renly, he asks Margaery if she wants to be a queen. Margaery cooly responds that she wants to be "the queen", much to the pleasure of Baelish.[9]
Littlefinger travels to Harrenhal to propose to Lord Tywin Lannister that they should seize Renly's untimely demise as an opportunity to forge a new alliance between House Lannister and House Tyrell. With House Tyrell on their side, the large armies and resources of the Reach will support King Joffrey's faction in the war. Tywin feels that trying to woo the Tyrells to their allegiance is the obvious course of action, criticizing Baelish for acting like he's the only person who could have thought of that, but nonetheless he sends him to try to broker the alliance with House Tyrell[10]
Littlefinger is successful in negotiating with the Tyrells, and the allied forces arrive in time to achieve a decisive victory against Stannis at the Battle of the Blackwater. Just as Stannis' forces were turning the tide and about to take the city, the Lannister army led by Tywin and the large Tyrell army led by Loras arrived from the Riverlands and the Reach, and caught Stannis' army in the flank. Stannis' army was almost completely destroyed, though Stannis himself managed to escape with a small fraction of his men.[11]
To formalize the new alliance between House Lannister and House Tyrell, King Joffrey agrees to be betrothed to marry Margaery Tyrell, who subsequently takes place at court. The marriage will be finalized once the war is over.[12]
Season 3
Due to the new Lannister-Tyrell alliance, House Tyrell resumes shipment of its foodstuffs along the Roseroad to feed the common people of King's Landing, who were suffering greatly from the deprivations of the war, and the disruption in trade which began when Highgarden declared for Renly Baratheon. Margaery says that 100 wagons are now arriving in the city daily from the Reach, containing wheat, barley, and apples.[13]
In order to strengthen and guide the new alliance, the House Tyrell family matriarch, Lady Olenna Tyrell, arrives in King's Landing. Lady Olenna and her granddaughter Margaery have a private meeting with Sansa Stark in which Olenna asks Sansa to give her frank, truthful assessment of King Joffrey. Olenna bluntly tells Sansa that she feels her fatheaded oaf of a son Mace Tyrell made a major mistake in supporting Renly's rival claim to the throne, much to Margaery's embarrassment. Olenna nonetheless chides that the men of House Tyrell have never been very intelligent: her own husband the late Lord Luthor Tyrell rode off a cliff to his death during a hawking accident because he was too focused on the sky, Loras is good at knocking men off horses with a stick but not politics, and her son Mace is an oaf who is determined to see House Tyrell marry into the royal line. Thus, she says, the more politically savvy women of House Tyrell are left to clean up the mess. Sansa confirms the rumors that have been coming out of the capital: Joffrey is a monster. Lady Olenna says this is "a pity" but takes the news calmly. She thanks Sansa for her honesty, and assures her that her son Mace is too set on entering Margaery into a royal marriage to call off the wedding at this point.[14]
When discussing the prospect of marrying Cersei Lannister to Loras Tyrell, Tywin Lannister and Olenna Tyrell discuss the scandals surrounding the pair. In response to Tywin's suggestion that Highgarden "has a high tolerance for unnatural behavior", Olenna states that while House Tyrell doesn't "turn [itself] in knots over" homosexuality, incest is still very much frowned upon. On a more practical note, she says that the Tyrells cannot take the risk that Cersei will be unable to give Loras any heirs, as otherwise Highgarden will revert to the (Baratheon) children of Margaery and Joffrey.[15]

Behind the Scenes
The HBO Viewer's Guide for Season 1 lists Mace Tyrell and Alerie Hightower as having four children – Willas, Garlan, Loras and Margaery – in keeping with the books. Willas and Garlan were not mentioned at all on-screen, were removed from the Viewer's Guide for Season 2, and did not reappear in the Viewer's Guide for Season 3. Loras was explicitly confirmed as being the heir to Highgarden in "The Climb". Willas and Garlan's roles in the narrative (the Tyrell who was to wed Sansa Stark and the Tyrell who asked for Margaery to marry Joffrey) had already been given to Loras on-screen.
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, House Tyrell is a powerful noble house. The Reach is the most populous region of the Seven Kingdoms and the Tyrells can field the largest army on the continent, although the Lannisters, being richer, can better-equip their troops. This makes the Tyrells formidable enemies but excellent allies.
House Tyrell never ruled as "kings and queens", as opposed to the Starks, Lannisters, Arryns, or Baratheons. Before King Aegon I Targaryen's invaded and united the Seven Kingdoms, the Tyrells were stewards to House Gardener, the Kings of the Reach. The Tyrells had responsibility for maintaining the castle of Highgarden, the seat of royal power in the Reach. In the battle known as the Field of Fire, King Mern IX Gardener and all of his issue were burned alive by Aegon's dragons. Harlen Tyrell, King Mern's steward, surrendered Hightower to King Aegon and was rewarded with the title of Lord Paramount of the Reach and Warden of the South.
House Florent of Brightwater Keep has long disputed the suitability of the Tyrells to the rule of the Reach, on the grounds that they can claim a closer blood-relationship to the old kings of House Gardener. House Florent is a cadet branch of House Gardener, founded by a younger son of the main Gardener line, while House Tyrell can only claim descent from House Gardener through the female line.
As a result the Florents have often bucked the authority of the Tyrells in the past three centuries since the Targaryen conquest. It came as little surprise when after Renly died and House Tyrell led their vassals in switching to support King Joffrey and the Lannisters, House Florent was the only major House from the Reach to instead switch allegiance to Stannis. Indeed, Stannis' wife is herself a Florent.
Thus the Tyrells, while always maintaining firm control of the Reach, have always feared that they have an uneasy grip on their rule. While the Tyrells possess very fertile lands from which they can raise large armies, there are other powerful noble families in the Reach, such as House Florent, which don't particularly respect them the way the vassals of the Starks and Lannisters respect them because they used to be their kings. A great deal of skill at court politics has thus been needed to keep the Tyrells' powerful vassals in check, though Tyrells like Lady Olenna possess this in abundance. Therefore, House Tyrell is always on the lookout to secure a marriage into a royal line, to strengthen their prestige and cement their rule over the Reach.
As D.B. Weiss summed it up in a Season 2 featurette, in the current generation House Tyrell is a closet matriarchy of sorts. While dependable, honorable, and loyal, the men of House Tyrell aren't particularly intelligent or adept at politics. Instead, the female members of House Tyrell (such as Margaery and her father's mother Olenna) are the intelligent ones who actively plan out the political course that House Tyrell will take. An exception to this is Lord Mace's eldest son Willas, who unlike his father and two younger brothers (Garlan and Loras), is said to be quite well-educated.
According to the TV series official pronunciation guide developed for the cast and crew, "Tyrell" is pronounced "TI-rul", as opposed to "Tie-rell", etc. In spite of this, several characters, including Lady Olenna, have inconsistently alternated with pronouncing it "TIE-rell".[16] Even within the same scene in Season 3's "Walk of Punishment", Cersei says "Tie-rell" while Tywin says "Tih-rul". When asked about this, official Game of Thrones linguist David J. Peterson (creator of the Dothraki) and Valyrian languages) said that he personally pronounces it as "Tie-rell", but has heard it both ways on the TV show - given that he doesn't himself decide how to pronounce basic character names. He did offer that maybe, just as in real life, there are simply multiple ways to pronounce the same name.[17]
The rest of the Tyrells are:
- Lady Mina Tyrell, Lord Mace's sister. Married to Lord Paxter Redwyne.
- Lady Janna Tyrell, Lord Mace's sister. Married to Ser Jon Fossoway.
- Garth Tyrell, Lord Mace's uncle. Called 'Garth the Gross'. Lord Seneschal of Highgarden.

February 22nd, 2012
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack and...on second thought, I'll just have a brat and a Miller Lite.
For millions of allergy sufferers across the country, someone else's snack can mean a deadly attack. Now one more major league team has been added to the roster of baseball parks offering dedicated peanut-free seating at some games.
The Milwaukee Brewers announced in a press release that there will be a 100-seat peanut-controlled area at Miller Park for games on Monday, May 7, Thursday, July 26 and Friday, September 14, with tickets available for pre-order starting March 1 at Brewers.com/peanutcontrolled. Because the entire venue will not be peanut-free, those seated in the area will be required to sign a waiver.
As CNN Health previously reported, a 2011 study in the journal Pediatrics reaffirmed the growing problem of food allergies among young people. Researchers found that eight percent of children under 18 in the United States have at least one food allergy. In the past, estimates had ranged from two percent to eight percent, adding to the growing body of evidence that increasingly more children have food allergies.
Among those with food allergies, about 39 percent had a history of severe reaction and 30 percent were allergic to multiple foods. The most common food allergen was peanuts, followed by milk and shellfish. Allergy to peanuts and tree nuts is the leading cause of fatal and near fatal food-allergic reactions. About one percent of the general population is affected by peanut and tree nut allergies, according to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
Roughly half of major league teams, including the Brewers, Chicago White Sox, Seattle Mariners, Washington Nationals, St. Louis Cardinals and others will host peanut-free games this season. Most of them employ intensive measures to ensure the safety of their guests.
U.S. Cellular field, which is hosting its inaugural peanut allergy-friendly event for the White Sox's home game against the Baltimore Orioles on April 17, suggests a "least peanut-exposed path" to the dedicated section, while vendors at Busch Stadium ensure that vendors will halt the sale of peanuts and peanut products in their specially assigned zone and will not allow fans seated there to consume them.
Representatives for Miller Field told Eatocracy that "The [peanut-free] area itself will receive a thorough power wash and cleaning prior to the games." Management at Nationals Park, which offers four dates with $25 tickets to thoroughly-cleaned "Party Suites" takes that a step further, ensuring that emergency medical technicians are on site to deal with any issues, and substituting canola oil for peanut oil throughout the venue on designated allergy-free days.
While expert opinion varies greatly about the actual risk outdoor peanut exposure holds, websites like Free to Enjoy Baseball (peanut free and more) and The Nut-Free Mom and Facebook communities Chicago Cubs Fans for Peanut Free Baseball and Peanut-Free White Sox Baseball like closely track and applaud efforts made by major league ballparks - even if they are not fans of the teams themselves.
One commenter on the White Sox group put it in a nutshell writing, "Awesome! Congrats!! I am 100% in support of this...(and by that I mean the Peanut-Free part, not the White Sox part!!) :)"

NEW YORK (AP) -- Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos have moved to the top of the AP Pro32 NFL power rankings for the first time after their ninth straight victory.
With their latest win at Baltimore, Denver edges San Francisco for the No. 1 spot by three points.
The Broncos (11-3) and 49ers (10-3-1) each received six first-place votes Tuesday in balloting by The Associated Press' panel of 12 media members who regularly cover the league. Denver outpointed San Francisco 375-372 in the closest voting of the season.
The 49ers knocked off previous No. 1 New England on Sunday night. The Patriots fell to third, with Atlanta and Houston fourth and fifth, respectively, after bouncing back from losses with big wins Sunday.
Kansas City is 32nd and last after being shut out by No. 30 Oakland

Prop 8 Rallies Planned
Jim Burroway
August 4th, 2010
As Timothy mentioned yesterday afternoon, we received word that a decision in Perry v. Schwarzenegger is expected this afternoon between 1:00 and 3:00 pm (PDT). Already, Prop 8 supporters have already filed a request for stay of judgment pending appeal, in case Judge Walker strikes down Prop 8. If granted, this would prevent any marriages taking until the Court of Appeals hears the case.
Meanwhile, a large number of rallies are planned in California and across the U.S., forty so far and counting. Rex Wockner is keeping up to date with the latest additions.

The day of love is almost here, and for many ladies, February 14 is a perfect excuse for trying out sassy new makeup looks to impress their guys. Luckily, Lauren Conrad has you covered - she recently posted a gorgeous and sweet sparkling eye makeup style on her blog, The Beauty Department
To get the glowing look, you'll need a light gold eyeshadow in a creamy consistency - or add a drop of Vaseline to your current product for a similar effect. You'll also need a sparkly loose powder, or Champagne-toned glitter, a true red or berry lipstick and clear gloss for your pout.
When you have all the materials, start your transformation by swiping the creamy shadow on your top lids to the crease lines. Next, dip your finger in the glitter and apply a thin layer on top of the shadow - add as little or as much as you like. To complete the eyes, swipe on a few layers of volumizing mascara, or even try false lashes for over-the-top glamour.
Now that your eyes are literally sparkling, you'll need to transform your pout to match. Start by outlining your lips in a pencil that is the same color as the lipstick you'll be using, then apply the lipstick, working your way from the inside out. Finish the style with a coat of clear lip gloss.

I'm all for it, as I run a sci-fi campaign currently, though its pretty much restricted to the Earth Sphere (Moon, La Grange points). Some access to the asteroid belt and Jupiter though.
What are you thinking? "Regional" map or an encounter map? In actual "space", or on a planetary body? In any event, pretty much all of those things interest me.

Why not reopen FM in MM for MM's sake?
Please do enlighten us why it was removed again? It was to prevent botters from gaining huge FM amounts for the 2500 FM -> Point Card conversion, correct? If that's the case, then why not just limit MM's FM reward like daily Gran reward?
0. The promise of Napoleon since MM FM ending is still at large (2 months became 2 years and counting)
1. Bring back FM in MM
2. Like MM Gran, limit FM reward daily ( possibly 1 Gran : 4 FM ) (20, 40, and 60 FM consequently)
3. Iczers levels 20 and above have a chance of getting FM besides Folrart arena matches, since Daily Duelist FM reward only lasts 'til LVL 19.
4. Newbies will also have better access on avatar items, FM lottery, and FM->PC.
This proposal won't terribly hurt the balance since one low-leveled iczer needs to play about a month (losing 5 or more battles per day + suggested MM FM reward) while not accounting wins to accumulate at least 2500 FM (and that's just 1 PC). Let's say you gain 500 FM a day, and get the max suggested reward: 500 + 60. You'll accumulate 2500 FM in 5 days at most, and 10 PCs in 44 days -- that's technically 50 days without the MM FM reward. That'll still take a long time, and what more when we include the FM lottery and the Avatar Store? I've seen high-level players with ~14k FM on their account, but that alone won't still give you a 1* of your choice. I know you could gain PCs in other ways like participating in events, but just consider... that not all players, esp. free players, can always participate in events. Having more chances of getting FM may lower the amount of players that'll quit because of continuous arena losses, and MM is a viable choice since it offered FM long before. I know this will make high-level players a tad richer, but the rich aren't richer when there's almost no one in the bottom of the food chain.
With FM reopen in mind, I believe this will increase MM's significance and gives hardworking newbies some fighting chance, even for a bit. But if this FM reward is still not feasible for reopening in MM, then why show new players the FM reward as forever '0'? It will only hurt the eyes of the new players, hoping they could get some FM out of MM... but to no avail. Do something about the FM option in MM! Either reopen it, or just plainly remove it (including the texts) from MM completely.
Thoughts on this matter?

Hundreds celebrate graduation
Submitted on May 10, 2010 at 12:04 PM
Hundreds of students celebrated graduation during the 38th annual commencement ceremony at Volunteer State Community College on Saturday. Graduation was held in front of a full house inside the Pickel Field House on the campus in Gallatin. Thousands of friends and family members were on hand to take part in the event.
Seventy-year-old Mae Patton of Madison was one of the happy graduates. The early childhood education student says she felt it was time for her to get a college degree. Ruthie Martin of Hartsville was named the Outstanding Graduate for 2010. A moment of silence was held to remember founding president Hal R. Ramer, who died earlier this year at the age of 86. Students played an original work in memory of Dr. Ramer titled "Godspeed."
We have a gallery of informal pictures taken by Vol State staff before and after the ceremony. You can download individual pictures to your computer. You can view that gallery by clicking here: http://www.volstate.edu/Galleries/2010_Graduation/
The official graduation photos will be available soon. All of the information on accesing those photos will be sent to graduates in the mail.
