- This article is about the Season 2 episode, for other uses see Blackwater (disambiguation).
"Blackwater" is the ninth episode of the second season of Game of Thrones. It is the nineteenth episode of the series overall. It premiered on May 27, 2012. It was written by co-executive producer and writer of the novels George R.R. Martin and directed by Neil Marshall.
The episode won two Creative Arts Emmy Awards, for Sound Mixing and Sound Editing, in 2012.[1]
A massive battle rages for control of King's Landing and the Iron Throne.
In the Seven Kingdoms
Tyrion Lannister leads the defense of King's Landing against an assault by King Stannis Baratheon in the Battle of the Blackwater. He spends the night before the expected siege in bed with Shae, telling her she can still leave the city. Tyrion has Varys provide him with a map of the tunnel network beneath the city. Varys tells Tyrion that he is all that stands between them and defeat. Bronn drinks with the Lannister men and has a confrontation with the Hound. Stannis plans a naval assault aiming to overcome the city's small defensive fleet and land his troops at the walls of the city near the Mud Gate. From the battlements, Joffrey berates Tyrion as to why his ships aren't meeting Stannis. Tyrion has anticipated his strategy and does not field his fleet. Instead he sends a single ship filled with Wildfire into the heart of Stannis' fleet, leaking the volatile substance over the surface of the water. He tasks Bronn with detonating the ship; he goes outside the city to the shores of the bay to fire the burning arrow that triggers the explosion. The ensuing conflagration devastates Stannis' fleet and destroys the ship of his High Captain, Davos Seaworth, as well as killing Davos' son, Matthos.
Stannis responds by putting his men ashore inside row boats, landing further from the walls to avoid the still burning inner bay. With less protection for his troops he predicts that thousands will die. He leads the assault personally and is the first to reach the walls. Tyrion orders Sandor Clegane to lead a sortie beyond the Mud Gate to repel the attackers. Sandor does as asked but is terrified by the fire and breaks down emotionally. Ser Lancel Lannister accompanies him and is wounded by an arrow. Bronn joins the fight in time to save the Hound's life. The Hound retreats after losing half of his men and refuses to go out again. He demands wine, tells off Tyrion and Joffrey, and walks away from the battle and his place in the Kingsguard.
Queen Regent Cersei Lannister offers protection to the ladies of the court in Maegor's Holdfast. She had earlier obtained Essence of Nightshade (which is deadly unless taken in tiny amounts) from Grand Maester Pycelle and keeps the headsman Ser Ilyn Payne at her side at all times, preparing for the worst. She drinks heavily during the assault and torments her captive Sansa Stark with dire predictions of what will befall the women if the defenses fail. She questions Shae, who seems to Cersei to be an unlikely handmaiden. When Lancel comes to tell her that Stannis has reached the walls Cersei orders him to bring Joffrey back to the Red Keep, ignoring his protests that it would damage morale.
Joffrey willingly leaves the defensive line with Lancel and charges Ser Mandon Moore and Ser Boros Blount of the Kingsguard to fight in the King's name. The gold cloaks' morale is broken by his departure. Tyrion steels himself to lead a sortie of his own. He rallies his men by telling them to fight for their city, their homes and their women, if not for their king. He leads his men through the tunnels beneath the city and is able to defeat Stannis's troops manning a battering ram at the Mud Gate. Tyrion is betrayed by Ser Mandon while fighting against a group of reinforcements. Mandon slashes Tyrion across the face with his sword. Tyrion's squire Podrick Payne comes up behind Ser Mandon with a spear and is able to intervene and kill Mandon saving Tyrion's life. Tyrion, barely conscious and held by Podrick watches a that battle seems lost.
Lancel returns to Cersei to warn that they are defeated unless Joffrey returns. When Lancel tries to be firm with her, Cersei ignores his counsel, pushes him out of the way (deliberately causing him pain by hitting his injured side), and storms out. Sansa tries to keep up the morale of the other women, frightened by Cersei's sudden departure. Sansa leads them in singing a hymn. Cersei has taken Tommen to the throne room. She sits with him on the Iron Throne, and tells him a story about a young lion and how it did not need to fear other beasts of the forest, the wolf and the stag. Shae tells Sansa to go to her chambers, lock herself in, and await Stannis, as he would not harm her, but Ser Ilyn might. Sansa finds the Hound waiting in her room. He offers to take her north to Winterfell, but she says she will be safe there when Stannis takes the throne. The Hound scares Sansa telling her his perspective of the world, that it is made up of violent men, even her father, Robb, etc., unlike the songs she believes in the world is run by trained killers like him, but he will not hurt her. Though he promises to protect her, she is still too afraid of him to go with him. Cersei sits on the Iron Throne and prepares to poison Tommen in order to prevent him from being taken captive.
The forces of Tywin Lannister and his new allies in House Tyrell join the battle. Their cavalry charge is led by a warrior dressed in the armor of Renly Baratheon and decimates Stannis's army. The survivors flee to their ships. Stannis is dragged from the battle by his guards, screaming for his men to stand and fight. Tyrion collapses into unconsciousness as the battle turns in his favor. Tywin goes to the throne room to announce the victory, stopping Cersei from killing Tommen in time. Ser Loras Tyrell reveals himself as the knight wearing Renly's armor.

- Jack Gleeson is credited ahead of Sophie Turner when he was credited after her when they last appeared together in "The Old Gods and the New."
- The episode is named after the Blackwater Rush. The battle takes place where the Blackwater Rush pours its waters into Blackwater Bay.
- This is the second episode of the series written by George R.R. Martin, the writer of the novels, following on from "The Pointy End" in the first season. It was also the first episode of the second season to be named, with Martin revealing the name "Blackwater" in a blog post on June 1, 2011, a year before broadcasting.[2]
- George R.R. Martin especially announced on his blog that director Neil Marshall would be helming this episode, noting that he was a fan of Marshall's feature film work, particularly the 2005 horror film The Descent.[3]
- It was reported that co-producer Vince Gerardis had said that the titular and iconic Battle of the Blackwater will take up 16 minutes of the finished episode. However, this was later corrected to a general statement that it takes up a notable portion of the episode and is impressive, but likely not as impressive as some fans would like it to be.[4]
- Producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss were disappointed at not being able to film the large-scale Battle of the Green Fork in Season 1, so always planned to shoot the Battle of the Blackwater. At one stage budgetary restrictions made it look like it would not be possible and the battle would have to take place off-screen, but the producers were able to convince HBO to provide a larger budget for the episode.[5]
- Despite the larger budget and a creative decision to move the battle to the night, there was still not enough time or money to film the battle as depicted in the books. George R.R. Martin was aware of this and pared the battle down significantly in his script. However, it still retained several elements that the producers then had to remove to make the budget work.[5]
- The original director for the episode pulled out at short notice. Neil Marshall was a last-minute replacement, although the producers were familiar with his feature work. Marshall ended up adding more elements and sequences to the battle than the producers had envisioned after the script rewrites.[5] Marshall has not read the books, but marathoned Season 1 for two weeks prior to the beginning of the month-long filming of the episode. According to Marshall, none of the specific instances of gore during the battle scenes were specifically written into the script (The Hound cutting a man in half, Stannis cutting the top of a man's head off), but were improvisations he was left to develop on his own.[6]
- This episode has the largest budget and largest number of visual effects of any episode of Game of Thrones to date.[5]
- The song playing over the end credits is "The Rains of Castamere" performed by The National.
- Jerome Flynn, who plays Bronn, sings "The Rains of Castamere" in this episode, he was one half of the singing duo Robson and Jerome.
- George R.R. Martin's original script featured both the chain and also large numbers of horses in the battle. The former was removed for budgetary reasons, the latter for pacing[7].
- Initially HBO asks the producers if they needed an extra $500,000 to film the battle. Benioff and Weiss ended up asking for $2,500,000, and got slightly more than $2,000,0000. The conference call to discuss this was described as "intense"[8].
- The original director left due to his father being ill. Benioff and Weiss drafted in Neil Marshall at short notice: they asked him on a Saturday morning to start prep on the Monday. Marshall agreed, watching the entire first season back-to-back on the Sunday before getting on a plane. Benioff thought of Marshall due to his wife's fear of Marshall's movie, The Descent[9].
- Marshall had a week and a half of prep before the start of shooting. Marshall was puzzled by the script, in which Stannis disappears once the fighting at the wall starts. The entire sequence of Stannis climbing the wall, fighting off the defenders and watching his army's defeat before being dragged from the field was added by Marshall[10].
- The scene where Cersei prepares to poison Tommen was inspired by Magda Goebbels poisoning her own children before committing suicide during the fall of Berlin in World War II[11].
- Benioff claims that there will be a battle sequence at the end of the proposed fourth season that will dwarf the Battle of the Blackwater. He envisages more complex negotiations to secure the budget for it[12].

In the books
- The episode covers material from A Clash of Kings, book 2 of A Song of Ice and Fire. The episode is adapted from the following chapters of A Clash of Kings:
- Chapter 58, Sansa V: Sansa talks with Tyrion; Joffrey then forces Sansa to kiss his sword immediately before the battle. She takes refuge with the women of the court in Maegor's Holdfast. Sansa and Cersei talks about why Ser Ilyn is present.
- Chapter 59, Davos III: Davos sails towards King's Landing with the fleet behind him, their drums sounding the call to arms. The Wildfire explosion throws Davos overboard.
- Chapter 60, Tyrion XIII: Tyrion sees the destructive power of his Wildfire. The Hound flees the battle. Tyrion decides to lead a counterattack.
- Chapter 61, Sansa VI: Sansa and Cersei are talking when Ser Mandon Moore announces the capture of some traitors. Cersei commands Lancel to fetch Joffrey back to his chambers. She reveals that she lied about Ser Ilyn and says that he is there to ensure that Stannis will not take them alive.
- Chapter 62, Tyrion XIV: Tyrion is attacked by Ser Mandon Moore in the midst of the battle. He is rescued by Podrick and passes out in the squire's arms. Stannis scales the castle walls.
- Chapter 63, Sansa VIII: Lancel tells Cersei that their troops are routing. She ignores his pleas to return Joffrey to the front and storms out of Maegor's Holdfast. Her guests panic and Sansa is left to calm them down. Sansa returns to her chamber where she is found by the Hound. He tells her that he is leaving.
- The battle takes place by day; Stannis's fleet lasts much longer and is destroyed by the combination a chain that is raised at the river entrance and the Wildfire. Bronn plays a crucial role in the battle by raising the chain across the mouth of the river, to prevent Stannis' ships from fleeing the Wildfire. The TV version condensed this down for time and budget, so that Bronn still plays a vital role in destroying Stannis' fleet: he fires the flaming arrow which sets off the explosion of the ship filled with Wildfire.
- In the TV series, Stannis' entire attack is launched from the sea. In the books, Stannis' 200 ships are filled with as many men as they can hold, but the larger part of his 20,000 man army has marched up the coast from the Stormlands to the southern side of Blackwater Bay, across from King's Landing which is on the northern side. The intent was for Stannis' fleet to land an initial invasion force to secure a landing zone on the northern shore, then for the fleet to ferry soldiers from the main army back and forth from the south shore to the north shore. Only eight of Stannis' ships survive the Wildfire to land troops. Thankfully for Stannis, Imry Florent didn't think much of Salladhor Saan due to his status as a pirate, so he left his sellsail fleet of thirty ships in reserve to guard the rear entrance of Blackwater Bay. As a result, Salladhor's fleet is not trapped behind the chain with the Wildfire, and plays a vital role ferrying troops to the northern shore after the main fleet's destruction.
- The Hound does not offer to escort Sansa North.
- It is Garlan Tyrell, not Loras Tyrell, who wears Renly's armor and breaks the siege. Garlan is Loras' older brother, Mace Tyrell's second son, but he hasn't been introduced in the TV series, so they just condensed these actions into Loras' role. Wearing Renly's armor convinced many of Stannis' soldiers, who had once served Renly, that it was the "ghost of Renly" riding out for revenge, at which they panicked or threw down their weapons and surrendered.
- In the TV series, when people in the city are discovered trying to steal horses to flee, Cersei orders Ser Ilyn Payne to behead them. In the books, several wealthy merchants of King's Landing attempt to hand over the city to Stannis by opening the gates. When they are discovered, Joffrey has antlers physically nailed into their heads - for the stag of Stannis' House Baratheon - after which the bloody men are loaded into the catapults and launched over the walls at Stannis' army. They are later referred to as the "Antler Men".
- Cersei notes that Shae is from the Free City of Lorath, as she recognizes her accent from a Lorathi handmaiden she used to have. In the books, Shae isn't actually from the Free Cities at all, she's just a camp follower of the Lannister army and her backstory is never gone into in detail, but she is from Westeros. The TV producers stated that they changed it so that when she is introduced in Season 1, Shae is stated to be "from the Free Cities" (they hadn't settled on which one yet) because they enjoyed the audition of actress Sibel Kekilli, but wanted to have some explanation for why she speaks with a German accent. What's curious about this is that five novels into the series, no named characters, save from Jaqen H'ghar, whose origins are unknown, come from Lorath and very little is said about it, due to its relative lack of importance. Identifying Shae as Lorathi, however, also serves to explain Jaqen's similar accent.

18th Annual East Coast Nationals - Rendezvous In Rhinebeck!Written by on November 1, 2009 Goodguys' 18th Annual East Coast Nationals
Traditionally held the second weekend in September, the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association decided, for the first time in 17 years to move the East Coast Nationals back a few months. Looking for warmer temperatures, a fairer forecast, and longer daylight hours for one of the New York region's largest hot rod and custom car show prompted the move.
Held at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds in Rhinebeck, New York, approximately 100 miles to the North as the crow flies from NYC, the East Coast Nationals featured a spectacular array of pre-'72 hot rods and customs, and, oh yeah, muscle cars. Situated in arguably some of the most picturesque countryside in America, "Rhinebeck" as it's known to the locals, is one of the most laid back shows on the Goodguys' calendar. But don't let the low-key atmosphere fool you, for with over 2,000 cars and attendance levels near 50,000, the East Coast Nats definitely don't disappoint.
Hosted by the Hudson Valley Street Rods club, the event gets kicked off early on Thursday with a cruise that takes participants throughout the historic Hudson River Valley. Friday starts off mellow with a poker run put on by the Hudson River crew, then it's off to the fairgrounds to kick the weekend off with a little show and shine. Saturday, numerous areas of the grounds are sectioned off for various Goodguys special feature areas such as Homebuilt Heaven, Builder's Choice, and Trick Truck Corral. In the exhibition buildings were numerous vendors selling parts and swag as well as an indoor swap meet. Out in the back 40 near the special features area was a car corral where we saw a couple of projects that tempted us into bringing home. Fortunately, we were on hand to pick another 10 cars as finalists for the STREET RODDER/Turtle Wax Top 100 program, keeping us busy enough throughout the weekend to forget about any harebrained ideas of dragging anything back to California. Of course like all Goodguys events, djs and live doo-wop music kept the crowds entertained throughout the weekend.
Among the hundreds of awards given out by the Goodguys at this years event, Tony Feil deserves a special nod for being selected as a Goodguys Kustom of the Year Finalist. Tony was also selected by us as a Top 100 finalist, so congrats Tony!
With the number and quality of cars that meet every year in Rhinebeck from all corners of the North East and New England it's easy to see why the East Coast Nats have become the preeminent East Coast hot rodding event. And with the move from September to June looking like a permanent change, it's arguably the best time of year to fire up that jalopy and visit the Empire State.
Turtle Wax Tech Tips
Apply car wax as needed. Waxing helps restore color and shine and it leaves behind a protective barrier to help prevent scratches, swirl marks and other imperfections that can permanently damage the vehicle's paint and finish. Water will bead on a properly waxed surface. When beads do not form, it is time to apply another coat of wax. For best results, select a wax or polish that offers long lasting protection and durability.
Clean all exterior surfaces. In addition to the vehicle's finish, protecting and cleaning wheels, exterior plastics and molding will help keep your car looking like new. Use a wheel product to remove and help prevent buildup of brake dust and road grime, which can permanently adhere to wheels and rims. For plastic and rubber surfaces, use a product that will restore and protect the materials' finishes.

Lon & Stephanie Lewis, Ossining, NY / '50 Chevy sedan
Nosed, decked, and with a one-piece hood, Lon Lewis' '50 Chevy also features a Mustang II frontend and four-wheel disc brakes.
Derrick Pesko, Meriden, CT / '29 Ford sedan
Following a pretty serious accident in a 'T' roadster, Derrick built himself this '29 Ford sedan powered by a 283ci Chevy mill. The sedan sits on a Deuce chassis and features a removable roof insert, '32 dash with a '40 Ford insert, and a pair of vintage theatre seats.
Jim Fleming, Washingtonville, NY / '26 Ford Track T
Jim Fleming's homebuilt Track T had us drooling all weekend, but no, all the water in the photo isn't from us! Jim's four-cylinder-powered modified puts the power to the pavement through a five-speed gearbox and a Halibrand quick-change rearend.
Barry Mac Cheyne, Webster, NY / '32 Ford roadster
Another Top 100 pick went to Barry Mac Cheyne's Hemi-powered Deuce roadster. Dirt track Firestones on burgundy wires, lakes headers, tuck 'n' roll upholstery, and black suede make for one cool hot rod.
Tony Feil, Whitehouse Station, NJ / '40 Pontiac Model 25 coupe
We especially liked Tony Feil's '40 Pontiac due to the fact that he adhered to the Poncho namesake by dropping a '74 455ci engine between the framerails and used the eight-lug wheels from its 1962 brethren. Numerous body mods lie under burgundy coupe-turned-roadster, further endearing it in our hearts as well as being chosen as a Goodguys Kustom of the Year Finalist.
Steve Macchione, Washington Township, NJ / '29 Ford sedan
Featuring a 4-inch chop and channel, Steve's Model A sedan is powered by a trio of Rochesters atop a small-block Chevy mill backed by a five-speed trans.
Ed Bedard, Uxbridge, MA / '34 Ford Tudor sedan
Ed Bedard's Washington Blue '34 Ford sedan was a barn fresh, 21,000 original mile car from Rhode Island when Ed got his hands on it. He proceeded to upgrade the stuck drivetrain with an Olds J2 tri-power-equipped engine backed by a 700-R4.
Charles Simpson, Jr., Mt. Laurel, NJ / '31 Ford pickup
Charles Simpson Jr. built this wild '31 Ford pickup using a number of unconventional components such as the Rio headlights and big-rig air tank cum fuel tank. Charles chopped the Model A 5 inches and channeled it another 4 before setting the cab on a custom chassis setup for the 235i six-cylinder. The low slung hauler is from Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, where Charles resides.
Albert Torelli, Springfield, PA / '49 Oldsmobile 88
One look at Albert Torelli's '49 Olds Rocket 88 and it's obvious to anyone who knows their Oldsmobiles that this particular fastback has seen its number of modifications from the front bumper back. We walked the perimeter of the car and you couldn't count the obvious mods on two hands let alone the ones we couldn't think of.
Ed Flanagan, Mendham, NJ / '39 Ford convertible
Ed Flanagan's dark blue '39 Ford Carson-topped convertible features power everything, Chassis Engineering front suspension and a 350 Chevy combo.

During an engine performance test, Trip Tucker is critically injured and left comatose in sickbay. Phlox suggests that Tucker's only hope for survival is the creation of a "mimetic symbiont" – in other words, a clone. But what happens when a being destined to die wants a life of his own?
At a funeral ceremony, Captain Jonathan Archer is eulogizing a dead crewman who appears to be Charles Tucker III.
In a flashback to events that began two weeks earlier, Tucker wants to do some tests to see about compressing the antimatter stream in the warp core in order to get the engine running more smoothly to achieve greater speed. Unfortunately, only seconds after the experiments have begun, a primary injector flare forces Tucker to do a manual shutdown. While on the top of the warp core, he is injured by a nearby explosion and falls.
In sickbay, Phlox informs Captain Archer that Tucker has slipped into a coma due to extensive neural damage. He proposes to use a Lyssarrian desert larvae to make a clone of Commander Tucker and harvest neural tissues from it. Because of highly sensitive ethical implications, Archer does not make a decision right away.
T'Pol informs Archer that particles from the field they are inside (possibly the cause of the initial injector flare), are building on the ship's hull. The highly magnetic properties of the particles could become a problem if they are not able to clear the field in time. Archer agrees to allow the cloning procedure, sacrificing the ethical implications for the sake of the mission's objective.
The clone grows from an infant to a child and eventually begins to ask questions about its existence. The captain tells him the truth. As the clone, named Sim, ages, the repairs to the warp drive go slowly. Because the particles building on the hull have a dampening field effect, every system on the ship will fail before the repairs are complete. When Sim becomes an adult, he helps with the repairs. He comes up with a solution to the particles problem. It is around this time that he confesses the feelings for T'Pol he has inside him, wondering if they're his or Trip's.
Later, Phlox informs the captain that according to his predictions, Sim won't survive the transplant. What would only seem a couple of days for everyone else would seem half a lifetime for Sim. The doctor tells Archer about an enzyme he discovered about that could slow down the aging process, but after hearing an extensive report from T'Pol, Archer says that the odds are too thin and that he is not willing to jeopardize the mission.
Meanwhile, Sim plans and begins an escape, but at the last minute he aborts it. When the captain meets him in the launch bay, Sim says that what stopped him was the thought of his sister, insisting on the fact that she was his sister as well as Trip's. Just before the surgery, T'Pol comes to Sim's quarters to say her goodbyes, giving him a kiss, something she had never done with Tucker. Sim returned the gesture, showing that he meant something to her, more than just being a clone to save Trip's life.
At the funeral ceremony, the dead crewman seen earlier is revealed to be Sim. The crew, including a recovered Trip, pay their last respects as Sim is placed in a torpedo tube and fired out into space.

Memorable quotes
"The most difficult test facing any captain, any crew, is the loss of a shipmate. We've come here to honor one of our own. In the time we knew him, he showed us just how much one life can truly matter. We will never forget what he did for us, and for the ship he loved so much. We will go forward with renewed determination to complete this mission, so that his sacrifice won't just have been for the people on this ship, but for all the citizens of Earth."
- - Captain Archer's eulogy for a lost crewman, apparently Trip Tucker
"Regarding the Lyssarrian procedure Doctor Phlox proposed, may I ask if you've reached a decision?"
"I approved it."
"Are you aware that the Lyssarrian Prime Conclave has banned the creation of simbiots?"
"We don't answer to the Lyssarrian Prime Conclave."
"Simbiots are living, conscious entities. We'll be growing a sentient being for the sole purpose of harvesting tissue."
"I'm aware of the ethical implications. If we weren't in the Expanse, maybe my decision would be different. But... we've got to complete this mission. Earth needs Enterprise. Enterprise needs Trip. It's as simple as that."
- - T'Pol and Captain Archer, discussing the controversial procedure Phlox has proposed in order to revive Tucker
"Can he do any tricks?"
"I haven't taught him any. Mostly what he does is eat, sleep, and, uh, not fetch."
- - Young Sim and Archer, discussing Porthos
"I'm not talking about an adolescent crush. That was... well, that was two days ago."
- - Sim, to T'Pol
"I have his memories. I have his feelings. I have his body. How am I not Trip?"
- - Sim, to Archer
"I must complete this mission! And to do that I need Trip! Trip! I'll take whatever steps necessary to save him."
"Even if it means killing me?"
"Even if it means killing you."
- - Archer and Sim, arguing over his right to survive
"I was all ready to do it."
"What stopped you?"
"Where the hell was I going to go? We're nowhere near any habitable planet. Didn't really want to spend the rest of my life floating around in a shuttlepod, which doesn't even have any toilet facilities. Can you imagine a lousier way to spend your old age – cooped up in that thing, peeing in a bottle? Actually, I can imagine a worse fate."
"What would that be?"
"Being stuck in there with Malcolm!"
- - Sim and Archer, with an obvious reference to Tucker's experience as documented in the season one episode, "Shuttlepod One"
"Do me a favor when this is over. If Commander Tucker decides to do any more modifications to the engines... tell him to watch his ass!"
- - Sim, to Archer
"I'm sorry I doubted you, Doc."
"No need to apologize."
"Yes, there is. You see, I don't just remember Trip's childhood. I remember mine. You made a damned good father."
"You were a damned good son."
- - Sim and Phlox
"You said to me once that commanding a starship was what you were meant to do. I guess this is what I was meant to do. Good luck, Captain."
- - Sim's last words to Archer
"You owe me one!"
- - Sim's last words, to the still comatose Tucker

WASHINGTON — You probably don't think too much about them as you drive past everyday but Montgomery and Prince George's County pay millions in electric bills each year for traffic lights. However, state transportation officials are working to save more money by lowering the electric bill.
Since 2006 Maryland's State Highway Administration started replacing old incandescent bulbs in traffic signals with Light-Emitting Diode (LED) lamps at 3,000 locations and the project is 93 percent complete, according to SHA's Charlie Gischlar.
We recently, within the last couple of months, finished Prince George's County. (In) Montgomery County, we are 80 percent complete. And we expect to be completed by October or November of this year," Gischlar says.
Maryland 355 from the Beltway to the District line will be getting LED lights as part of a massive reconstruction project due to begin on Monday, Aug. 26.
SHA estimates the move could save hundreds of millions of dollars across Maryland and 43 million kilowatt hours by 2015, which equates to enough energy to power approximately 4,500 Maryland homes for an entire year.
In addition to energy savings and reduced maintenance of the signal systems, LED traffic signals are brighter than incandescent bulbs. Brighter signals help draw driver attention to the signal during the day and improve traffic signal visibility at greater distances during nighttime travel.

Priori Incantatem
this wiki
- "A jet of green light issued from Voldemorts wand just as a jet of red light blasted from Harry's — they met in midair — and suddenly Harry's wand was vibrating as though an electric charge were surging through it; his hand seized up around it; he couldn't have released it if he'd wanted to — and a narrow beam of light connected the two wands, neither red nor green, but bright, deep gold. Harry, following the beam with his astonished gaze, saw that Voldemort's long white fingers too were gripping a wand that was shaking and vibrating."
- —Description[src]
Priori Incantatem is a magical phenomenon that can occur when two wands which share the same source for their cores are forced to compete in combat. It is sometimes referred to as the "reverse-spell effect". It can also be induced by analytical spells, like an extension of the Prior Incantato spell.
During a wand duel, a simultaneous spellcasting by both parties with twin wand cores will trigger an effect whereby both wands are linked through separate threads of spell energy. The two wand holders then compete in a battle of wills, in which the loser's wand is forced to display in ghostly form the spells which had been cast by said wand, in order of most recent to least recent. If any of those spells are Killing Curses, the victims will appear in ghost-like form, capable of holding a conversation with nearby living beings. When the spells come into contact they send out a seismic pulse which has enough force to knock onlookers from their feet. When the spells meet, they intertwine, making it difficult for either caster to break the connection. A spell-like residue falls from the core of the connection, possibly representing the wills of the casters and the energy of the incantations. A dome effect occurs during the connection, in order to keep any intruders from attacking either wizard or witch. The sound of the connection is similar to electrical arcs.
The effect is similar to the spell Prior Incantato, (but this spell does not need a wand connection) which causes the targeted wand to recall its last spells.
Known Instances
The only widely-known instance of Priori Incantatem came about in 1995, at the graveyard in Little Hangleton, when Harry Potter first duelled with the resurrected Lord Voldemort. The two wands in question both had a phoenix feather at their core from Fawkes, pet of Albus Dumbledore.
- Priori Incantatem rarely ever happens when two opponents forcibly use their wands in battle. The reason it happened during the 1995 duel between Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort is due to the cores their wands shared; since the wands recognised each other as "brothers", they refused to destroy each other, and when spurred on, the dominant (Harry's) forced the submissive to regurgitate its spells.
A possible etymology for Priori Incantatem is prior incarnation, refering to its effect of "regurgitating" previous spells. However, the Latin literally means "prior incantation" or "previous spell"; more literally, an incantation is a spell spoken aloud.
Behind the scenes.
- During the duel, Voldemort's wand emitted "echoing screams of pain", which may refer to the Cruciatus Curse he used earlier on both Harry and Wormtail (when punishing the latter for letting Barty Crouch Sr. escape).
- Throughout the film adaptations there are several instances in which two wizards, while duelling, find themselves locking spells with their opponent, using Priori Incantatem. However, this may be disregarded, as all occurrences (save for the one in Goblet of Fire) lack key elements of Priori Incantatem, such as the "regurgitation" of spells performed by the wands, the "golden cage" around the casters, and twin wand cores. David Yates has admitted that he did want wands to connect in the movies for effect. Instances of this include: Albus Dumbledore and Lord Voldemort during the Duel in the Ministry Atrium in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix; a Death Eater and Arthur Weasley in the Battle of Hogwarts in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2; and Harry Potter (using Draco Malfoy's wand) and Lord Voldemort (using the Elder Wand) several times during Voldemort's Last Stand, also in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. From the in-universe perspective it can be explained that the Elder Wand could not lose a duel and, in last-mentioned case of connection, refused to kill its master (Harry).

The disciplinary and reconciliation committee of the Tanzania Football Federation is expected to workout on Young Africans appeal on Saturday.
Yanga lodged an appeal to protest a three-point loss resulting from fielding suspended defender Nadir Haroub in their premiership match against Coastal Union played at the Mkwakwani Stadium in Tanga on March 31 which they won by a lone goal.
Haroub was flashed with a red card y referee Israel Nkongo during their league match against Azam FC that was marred by violence at the National Stadium on March 10.
Yanga had lost the match by 3-1 goals to dent their title retention hopes.
The Mainland premier soccer league committee had docked Yanga three points after the match in Tanga as Coastal Union lodged an appeal in protest for Haroub's fielding before he had ended the three-match suspension.
This is Yanga's second appeal in less than three weeks after the first was lodged to protest against heavy penalties and suspensions to their players.
Five of Yanga players, including Haroub, were booked during their match against Azam that sparkled criticism across the soccer fraternity in the country.
Should Yanga win the appeal and redeem the three points, the decision is likely to ignite attention of other premiership sides, Coastal Union inclusive.
Yanga have five matches to wind up the season and stay seven points adrift of pace makers Simba who have played one more game.

The Flying Thunder God Technique is a technique created by Minato Namikaze which allows the user to transport themselves to a marked location in the blink of an eye. This technique was the reason behind his nickname, "Konoha's Yellow Flash" (木ノ葉の黄色い閃光, Konoha no Kiiroi Senkō).[1]
To activate this technique, the user needs a special seal or "technique formula" (術式, jutsu-shiki) to mark the destination. After this is done, the user enters a dimensional void which instantaneously transports them to the location of the seal.
Minato applied the formula in advance to weapons such as special kunai. By giving one such kunai to a person, he can immediately teleport to that person at any time. He can also apply the mark to a touched area, such as his opponent or some other surrounding feature.[2][3]
The technique is fast enough to even allow Minato to escape Obito's Kamui, despite the latter already being in physical contact with him. Minato can also use this technique to teleport other objects, such as when he used it to teleport the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox out of Konohagakure, though the size of the object determines the amount of chakra required.[4]
It is because of this technique that Konohagakure came out victorious in a battle against Iwagakure during the Third Shinobi World War, despite already running short on manpower in the front lines. After having his subordinates toss marked kunai randomly into the enemy ranks, Minato used the technique to appear within their ranks, using the great speed of this technique to seemingly appear to be in several places at once and wipe out entire squadrons one by one in moments before they could even react. This, combined with Minato's immense natural speed and reflexes makes this technique extremely deadly and according to A made Minato the fastest ninja to ever live.[5]
Minato also passed the technique on to his special guards, Genma Shiranui, Raidō Namiashi and another unknown shinobi. However, all three of them are needed to perform the technique. To do so, they form a circle with one another by performing the seal of confrontation with each other with their thumbs, middle and index fingers touching. This allows them to transport anything within the confines of the ring. As they are now the guards of the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade has been marked with the technique formula.[6]
- Minato also incorporated the formula into his wife's seal, allowing him to come to her aid at anytime.[7]
- Although it is often compared with the Body Flicker Technique, the speed and range of this technique are much greater. In principle, this technique is instead similar to the Summoning Technique, as it revolves around the manipulation of time and space rather than accelerated movement, but instead of bringing something to the user, it sends them somewhere.
- The name Hiraishin is also the phonic of the Japanese word 避雷針, which means "lightning rod". This may suggest the reasoning as to why the technique is restricted towards a seal, because lightning is attracted to lightning rods.
- The technique can create smoke similar to a Summoning Technique,[8] but that is not always the case.

One in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime, but it's one in five for Black men. Women college basketball coaches and its players annually raise awareness of breast cancer by wearing pink colors. The "Coaches vs. Cancer" campaign features men's head coaches wearing sneakers during games. However, this might be a first united show of support by Black coaches since the 1980s when Proposition 48 was first proposed and opponents protested it as a way to limit Black players from getting athletic scholarships.

- Evidence details twisted path that led Austin Sigg to Jessica Ridgeway
Judge Stephen Munsinger on Monday asked the Colorado Supreme Court to clarify standards for closing a hearing.
Munsinger has closed the Feb. 22 preliminary hearing for 18-year-old Austin Sigg to the public. He said he wants to ensure a fair trial and to protect the privacy of victims and their families.
Prosecutors and media organizations, including The Associated Press, argue that Munsinger didn't hear evidence or consider alternatives before closing the hearing.
Sigg is accused of kidnapping, sexually assaulting and killing 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway in October and of attacking a jogger in May.
Sigg's attorneys say they'll weigh in by Feb. 19.

Vodacom has launched a new offer specifically designed to meet the communication needs of the mass and youthful market in a bid to further increase its customer base by continuing to provide affordable telecommunications services to subscribers.
A statement isseued yesterday said under the new campaign dubbed 'Wajanja Vodacom', prepaid customers will enjoy a very affordable tariff of /25 per second for Vodacom to Vodacom calls from 10pm to 7am every day.
It said, the new offer will also see Vodacom prepaid customers enjoying a very low sms tariff of only 25/- for sms sent to any network in Tanzania, as well as free browsing on Facebook and Twitter websites.
Vodacom Tanzania Limited managing director Rene Meza, said the new offer is designed to fulfill the mobile communication needs of the mass market, especially the youth - helping them to be in the know and in constant communication through voice calls, sms and Internet at affordable rates.
It said, although the youth are sure to love the new offer, all Vodacom prepaid customers will benefit from the new low rates.
"Vodacom is committed to provide affordable mobile services to all Tanzanians. By making it possible for Tanzanians to make phone calls, send sms and access the Internet at reasonable rates, we are convinced that mobile customers in Tanzania are now in a position to be part of today's world through their mobile phones," said Meza.
The new offer applies automatically to all Vodacom prepaid customers. "There is no need for customers to subscribe or register to the offer. All they need is to be on the Vodacom network," Meza added.
"Currently with about 20 million active customers, representing a mobile penetration of around 44 per cent, the Tanzanian market represents a tremendous opportunity for growth going forward, and an opportunity Vodacom wants to be part of as we continue leading the mobile market by providing affordable mobile services", Meza concluded.

ATLANTA -- August 12, 2012
The Powerball jackpot has grown to $305 million for Wednesday's drawing.
The prize grew after no one matched all six numbers in the multi-state lottery drawing Saturday night. The winning numbers were: 4, 13, 39, 46 and 51. The Powerball was 1.
Though no one hit the jackpot, several people made out nicely. Five Powerball tickets won $1 million because they matched five of the six winning numbers, according to the official Powerball website. The million-dollar tickets were sold in Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that no one has won big in Powerball since June 23 when a couple from Connecticut won $60 million.

text: Companies prepare for a land-grab of new top level domains Business 10 January 12 by Olivia Solon Flickr.com/Joi From this Thursday 12 January, companies can apply to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) for the domain name suffix of their choosing -- from dot brand (.brand) or dot product (.camera, for example) through to generic terms like .food, .hotel or .pugs. They have until 12 April to get their applications, along with the $185,000 (£120,000) fee, to ICANN. After that date it is expected that further applications won't be accepted for at least two or three years.In a vote in June, the global domain chiefs at ICANN voted yes to boosting the number of domain name suffixes. At the moment, there are only 22 generic top level domains (gTLDs), including .com, .biz, .museum and .jobs, as well as the recently added .xxx. This is in addition to the 250-or so country-specific domains such as .co.uk and .fr.The new ruling means that from this year, we may well start to see sites ending .pepsi, .apple or .microsoft. A number of companies have already laid a stake in the ground regarding a particular term, with Canon has made it very clear that it wants .canon, while the Mayor of London has announced that he is interested in the .London suffix.These top level domain names have caused some controversy -- particularly in the US -- where organisations such as the Association of National Advertisers were not satisfied with the espoused benefits. These are said to be increased competition, innovation and reduced scarcity for generic TLDs. In many cases generic .com URLs -- for example cameras.com -- were snapped up years ago and are now owned by cybersquatters.However, opponents argue that URLs are rarely used to locate a site anyway. Users go to search engines and look for the brand or product they are interested in without having to remember the company's URL. They also complain that the cost to brands is enormous and outweighs the speculative benefits of the programme. A major concern is that businesses and non-profit organisations will be forced to spend money to register their company name's TLD in an effort to protect their brands.Big responsibility Stuart Durham from Melbourne IT DBS, spoke to Wired.co.uk about some of the challenges and opportunities of the programme. His company is helping to process around 100 different applications from companies keen to take advantage of the new domains. These include major brands as well as newly formed companies keen to open their own registries and resell their own URLs for their purchased domain."Buying one of these domains is a big responsibility. The application form comprises of 53 questions and delivers around 200-300 pages of responses," Durham explained. "You need to show that you have the financial stability to operate as a registry and if you are acting as an open registry on a generic term you need to show who you are going to market that term to."According to Durham, companies that can benefit from the new TLDs include those for whom there is already an existing brand/trademark conflict. One brand might already own the .com, but the other could now own the .brand. He explained: "Under trademark law people can have the same trademark in different classes. But only one company can have the .brand online."He believes that it could also prove marketing effectiveness, allowing companies to improve their SEO. Although he admits that it's hard to predict how Google's algorithms will treat the new domains.Marketing benefits Roland LaPlante, CMO of global registry service provider Afilias, also believes that there will be branding benefits. "There are marketing benefits for having dot brand. Dot com or dot net does not evoke brand imagery of brand benefits," he explains, "they are just added clutter in a URL. Imagine seeing "Drink.pepsi", as opposed to Pepsi.com."Despite LaPlante's confidence, consumers have had years of having .com or .co.uk URLs rammed down our throats, so it might take a while for people to be able to accept that a string ending "dot something else" as a URL at all -- it certainly took a while before people trusted .biz and .info URLs.The second benefit he sees is security: "Everyone knows there is a lot of fraud online and it's very difficult for the normal internet users to know when you are visiting a fraudulent site, particularly for luxury brands, pharmaceutical companies or financial services. However if Rolex buys .rolex it will be the registry operator and have 100 percent control of who can use a Rolex address."Durham agrees, believing these new TLDs to be particularly useful for trusting the URLs of banking brands. Because of the high barrier to entry, it is harder for scammers to set up URLs with .brand on them. As a result, you could check the authenticity of an email purporting to be from your bank by clicking through to the domain. If it doesn't have .halifax or .natwest (provided these companies bought into the programme), you could be safe to assume that it was fake. Durham believes that a further benefit is the fact that the domains could be used to create personalised experiences for customers. So instead of linking to brand.com/login for your banking service, you might be able to go straight to a more personalised page such as oliviasolon.bank.

It may not be a "Comedy" but The new sensational show called "Level Up" however, inspires gamers everywhere to be connected as a team. Most people don't believe in "Power of Friendship" or anything of the sort, only because they are afraid of the connection tend to grow stronger. In my book, This show has more effort of superstardom than the series, "Adventure Time". People need more of "Level Up". This must be the NEW face of cartoon network. Congradualations to the cast members, director, sound, and others. Keep on creating more seasons! Read more

Episode Plot
After foiling another Team Rocket plan and passing through Twist Mountain, Ash and co. stop off for the night at Don George's Pokemon Battle Club in Astilbe Town. At the battle club, Tepig walks up to its former trainer, a boy named Shamus. He is the previous owner of Ash's Tepig due to Shamus's abandoning Tepig because he believed that it had no talent for battles when it lost to a Deerling but he never cares when he lied. When Ash went to get Tepig, Shamus said that he was glad to give up such a little runt of a Pokemon for its little talent as he finds another Tepig with a little less talent, which enraged Ash after he put two and two together. So Ash is challenged to a Double Battle against Shamus's Emboar and Heatmor:"The Fire Warriors" to prove how useless Tepig is. Can Tepig really prove that his talents are worth anything?
- Shamus' Emboar is confirmed to be male.
- This is the second time Ash looked up Pignite on the Pokedex. First was BW013: Minccino-Neat and Tidy! but the difference is it didn't say "the evolved form of Tepig".
- That's the second time in a row when two pokemons in a battle gets defeated by one pokemon still standing. First was BW065: Evolution Exchange Excitement! when both Accelgor and Escavalier gets defeated by Cilan's Crustle. This time Emboar and Heatmor gets defeated by Ash's Pignite.
- In the flashback, it is revealed that Shamus was replacing his own Tepig in Accumula Town for another one before Ash and co. (minus Cilan) even arrive here. Which made Tepig feel heartbroken during the battle against him.
- This episode shares a few moments from Charmander - The Stray Pokémon.
- Who's that Pokemon?: Heatmor (US).

May 6, 2016
GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) -- Indians infielder Lonnie Chisenhall is among 11 players to sign one-year contracts with Cleveland.
Michael Brantley will start in left field following the team's signing of free agent center fielder Michael Bourn. He resumes workouts Thursday after he was spiked last week during an exhibition game and needed 15 stitches. Manager Terry Francona said Brantley could be playing in games by this weekend.
The Indians also signed starting third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall, right-handers Cody Allen, Trey Haley, Corey Kluber, Zach McAllister, Danny Salazar and Bryan Shaw, outfielder Tim Fedroff, left-hander T.J. House and infielder Chris McGuiness.
Chisenhall played his high school baseball at West Carteret in Morehead City. He also spent time at Pitt Community College.
All the signed players have less than three years of major league experience and are not eligible for salary arbitration.

Will Strong Encryption Protect Privacy and Make Government Obsolete?
Recorded: Tuesday, April 24, 2001
Many people have wondered how technological progress will affect political, economic, and civil freedoms. With the rise of encryption software, the National Security Agency's Echelon worldwide surveillance system, and the FBI's Carnivore e-mail snooping program, this subject is no longer the exclusive domain of speculative thinkers or futurists, it is the subject of intense public-policy debate. Will privacy-enhancing technology improve faster than privacy-threatening technology? Should the government mandate privacy standards? Should it enforce contracts in cyberspace, or would private law do a better job? Economist, physicist, and legal scholar David Friedman discussed these and related questions about technological change and the case for and against government involvement.

We will probably do one more set of prebuilts at some point, although I warn you the Gowen one will probably be Orks, so be careful what you wish for. Prebuilts are good for the game and Folrart diversity but yes, we've never really made money on them. Obviously the 500 gran thing, so we probably can't do that again. The hardcore grinders can usually grind even for the full price versions, according to my records. Before prebuilts hard-core grinders would usually eventually buy a little gran after a few months. Once a little gran was bought, a decent number of those who did so would become regular or semi-regular spenders. Prebuilts basically stopped that process. I think MMan has some contacts at FF games, I'd like to talk to them about that. Basically, if you line up our sales/card items from most random to least random, it would pretty much match exactly best sales to worst sales, AND most individual participants to least (meaning more random = better sales and more individuals buying). This has been consistent from times to high numbers of players and low numbers of players, and high numbers of new players to low number of new players. If it wasn't, I'd literally sit down and make a shop entry for every card this weekend -- I have no particular love for the current system.
The big selling point for a marketplace type addition for me would be the option to effectively have non-random sales and break away from the current model, even though I admit I am not a personal fan of infusing in-game capitalism into a game unnecessarily.
