After being beaten badly by Brawly, Ash decides to do some serious training of one thing he lacks: patience. He does this by practicing the fine art of Fishing. He, along with May, Max and Brock, accidentally hook Team Rocket's Magikarp submarine and after a fierce battle, May notices something different about her Wurmple: it is actually Jessie's! Can our heroes find May's Wurmple before Team Rocket notices?
May wakes up, only to find Ash's bed empty. Ash's been waiting in Pokemon Center for healing of his Treecko and Taillow. Ash brings them out, looking better than ever. Ash apologises to them for the battle they had. They have kunch and Ash decides to begin his training. Max comes to them, saying that Steven, son of President of Devon Corporation is doing some secret research, so they go to look for him.
While they walk, a man appears before them, saying that here many Water Pokemon live. Ash is convinced to do some fishing, but Team Rocket is near a bush while James is the man in disguise. Max gives May some advice, even if she says that she's old enough to know how to fish. May catches an Octilarry, but she needs to battle it to catch it, so she sends Wurmple, but the Octilarry goes on Max's head.
Wurmple uses String Shot on Max, even if he advises her to attack the Octilarry. Octilarry attacks Max and goes back into the water. Later, Ash catches a Corpish, even if it attacks Max first. The Copish starts to attack everyone, so Ash's Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but Corpish strikes first with Claw Hammer. The Corpish goes to the water as well. The gang returns to fishing.
Team Rocket is frustrated by the fact that the gang are catching Pokemon. Jessie still continues to her plan, that they'll pull them down and get the Pokeballs with them. May catches something, but it is really heavy, so everyone helps her catch it. As Team Rocket dive deeper, the gang puts more strength to get it out. Team Rocket has destroyed the breaks, so May gets the Magikarp submarine to the surface, revealing that Team Rocket is inside it.
The Team Rocket steal Pikachu with an electric-proof net, so Treecko uses quick Attack. May defends her Wurmple, but Jessie brings hers as well, arguing whose is better. Max breaks the discussion, beginnig to analyze it. Max determines that both Wurmples are good, but this makes Jessie annoyed, so she orders to use String Shot. May's also uses String Shot, but on Jessie. James is about to use the net, but Treecko spits the branch, making him drop the net. Treecko uses Quick Attack, making Meowth knocked out.
In so doing, it bounces to the Wurmples, so May's and Jessie's get mixed up. Team Rocket attempt to escape, but Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, blasting them. The gang is about to leave, but May offers the Wurmple food, but Wurmple is not hungry, making her doubt it is hers. Brock says that it can be checke by putting the Pokemon back into the Pokeball. However, when May does it, it does not get back, making the Wurmple Jessie's.
James and Meowth are to eat cookies, but the Wurmple eats them all. James thinks that it might not be Jessie's, so when she wants a hug from it, the Wurmple resists. Jessie is not convinced either way, so Meowth asks it whose trainer does it belong to - it says it is hungry. Taillow has searched for Team Rocket, so May is sad when her Wurmple is in hands of Team Rocket.
Meanwhile, Jessie feeds the Wurmple, making an imagination how she caught it. Taillow has found Team Rocket, so the gang appears before them. May offers Jessie's Wurmple in exchange for her own. Jessie fools May, taking her Wurmple with her. They fly off in their baloon and Meowth makes an imagination how life would be when their boss, Giovanni, would recieve an Wurmple - it would give him stringgs for his buttons. Taillow uses Wing Attack to cut the baloon, forcing May to get her Wurmple back.
Taillow uses Quick Attack, but Jessie's Seviper is sent out to use Haze, dimming the vision. Treecko uses Pound, so James sends his Cacnea to attack with Pin Missile. Seviper uses Poison Tail. Ash's Treecko uses Pound and Pikachu uses Quick Attack, making the Pokemon knocked out. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt to blast them off. May offers the Wurmple some food, to which the Wurmple eats quickly and sleeps, making it definitively her own.
- Featured Pokemon: Espeon
- This is the first time that the Team Rocket say "shipping" instead of "blasting" when they blast off in Hoenn.
- From this episode until AG145, Mike Pollock replaces Ken Gates as the Narrator. Pollock also narrates for episodes of Pokémon Chronicles.

WASHINGTON – As an increasing number of teens head indoors to get their tans, keeping kids under the age of 15 out of tanning beds is on the minds of Virginia lawmakers.
The state Senate voted in favor of a bill to do just that on Friday, and now the bill moves to the House of Delegates.
The potential law would force kids ages 15 to 18 to obtain written permission from their parents before heading to the tanning salon.
In Maryland, anyone under 18 must also obtain written approval before going to a tanning salon, and in D.C., parents must accompany a child under the age of 14 when they're using a tanning device.
Howard County is the only county in the U.S. that completely bans indoor tanning for teens under the age of 18.

The 2012 London Olympics is currently one of the hottest discussion topics. From Kenneth Branagh quoting Shakespeare at the Opening Ceremonies to an appearance by perhaps Britain's most famous author of the 21st century (Harry Potter's mastermind, J.K. Rowling!), the Games fill people's minds with thoughts of Olympic glory.
Here at FrightCatalog, Halloween is our priority. Like the Olympic athletes who eat, drink, sleep, and breathe their sports thirty-six different sports in all are competing in London we live Halloween. So, in honor of the Olympics, we thought we'd compile a list of our Olympics-inspired costumes in honor of this summer's most talked about event. These costumes are available on our website, www.frightcatalog.com
1. Olympic Goddess Adult Costume
2. Toga Male Adult Costume
3. Roman Goddess Plus Size Costume
4. Roman Warrior Plus Size Adult Costume
5. Gladiator Adult Costume
(The first documented Olympics is dated at 776 BC and was held in Olympia, in the western region of the Peloponnese.)
6. Old Tyme Baseball Player Adult Costume
7. Everlast Boxing Adult Costume
8. A League of Their Own Rockford Peaches Adult Costume
(Boxing and baseball are two of the more popular Olympic sports.)
9. Cheeseburger Adult Costume
10. Coca Cola Bottle Tunic Adult Costume
(The nearly universal burger-and-Coke combo is expected to be a top food item for Olympic spectators.)
As for FrightCatalog.com, we are too busy gearing up for Halloween to focus on anything other than Halloween. We would, however, appreciate a juicy burger and soft drink, preferably something similar to this:

I didin't understand very well that thing about "revival"...Orochimaru "injects" some part of his consciousness into the ones he bites with his juinjutsu and then that "piece of his mind" takes his form with the flesh of the host ?--220.127.116.11 (talk) 23:20, July 13, 2012 (UTC)
You know as much as we do ... likely Voldemort style--Elveonora (talk) 23:27, July 13, 2012 (UTC)
just random question
At least in the anime (I don't remember it in the manga) when Oro was about to suck Sasuke's neck to give him the Curse Mark, his face appeared all fucked up, any idea as of why?--Elveonora (talk) 21:46, July 19, 2012 (UTC)
When he was still posing as Shiore and his face-mask was ruined?--NinjaSheik 21:55, July 19, 2012 (UTC)
like this and this--Elveonora (talk) 22:04, July 19, 2012 (UTC)
Hmm... I don't really remember the fight all too well, but wasn't those images just part of something Sasuke imagined. Or was it in one of his dreams? Don't remember.--NinjaSheik 22:08, July 19, 2012 (UTC)
It appeared a second before Sasuke's neck got bitten by Oro--Elveonora (talk) 22:13, July 19, 2012 (UTC)
Then it has to be his imagination in middle of fear, seeing as Oro as a real demon coming after him. Probably added in the anime for dramatic effect, if you ask me.--NinjaSheik 22:18, July 19, 2012 (UTC)
It's exactly for that reason Sheik. The face seems modelled after an oni as well (I don't know if you guys follow Avatar) but a yokai that is said to steal the faces of people. Nothing more.--Cerez365™(talk) 11:56, July 20, 2012 (UTC)
Makes sense, thanks for answer.--Elveonora (talk) 14:57, July 20, 2012 (UTC)
His height?
Sorry, but why is orochimaru's height decreased? in part 1 it's 179,4 cm and in part 2 it's decreased to 172 cm? are you sure it's not wrong? it's really strange that someone's height is shortened... eh, sorry. the weight too?

The creepy chick body was taller that the guy body.--Elveonora (talk) 13:52, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
sealed by totsuka...
Some articles (Kusanagi Sword included) state that Orochimaru had been sealed by Itachi before being revived by Sasuke. That's incorrect, he had escaped such fate and got burnt by Amaterasu.--Elveonora (talk) 16:57, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- Which is speculation. We know he got stabbed by sealing sword. We don't know what the hell that snake was. It could be as you said, it could be foreshadowing that there was a way he could be brought back. We don't know anything about the snake. We do know what Itachi's sword can do.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 17:03, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- When it comes to Orochimaru's life it's all up in the air. It is in fact true that we have no idea what those snakes would have gone on to do, but people speculate that he would have been revived through one of them which is not unbelievable, still, as it is now, he was sealed by the sword.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:05, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
Speculation is saying he got sealed, as later manga chapters and logic disprove such. There would be no reason to draw panels with snakes escaping and getting killed if it were just random/generic snakes/summons. It was obviously Orochimaru escaping the sealing, for further detail http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Elveonora#Re:_Kusanagi_-_Oro_edit and http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:TheUltimate3#Kusanagi_-_Oro_edit --Elveonora (talk) 17:13, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
1) Yes. 2) Speculation on my part, but it explains why he didn't need to use the Releasing Method to pop out of the seal. 3) Indeed. Because Sealed in permanent genjutsu = deader than dead. 4) And Orochimaru had his consciousness alive and well in Anko's seal. How else would he be aware of everything that Anko is aware of in respects to the war if he was chillin in dead world all this time? 5) And you know this how? 6) Kishimoto doesn't make many things obvious. It seems obvious to you because it helps reach a conclusion that makes sense to you. When you are forced to look at things objectively, you are left with more questions than answers, hence it's not certain
- at least on something you agree with me
- it was a different case, as Anko had Orochimaru's chakra/consciousness sealed in her, while Sasuke Orochimaru's soul, the latter broke free because Sasuke got short on chakra so there was nothing to hold Orochimaru back
- again, there's only one soul and it's obviously walking around in a body thus was not sealed anywhere... proofs:
- if it was possible for a soul to be hosted in 2 different bodies (Tobi-Madara originally thought) they wouldn't disprove the masked man being who is claiming to be automatically, thus it's not possible.
- Anko was branded with Cursed Seal before Part I. and Orochimaru that came out of her knows everything that have happened so far, thus it's not like that one don't remember getting pwned by Sasuke and Itachi
- His soul went into Anko's Cursed Seal likely after he got burnt
- "Naruto, I will never meet Jiraiya sensei again as I will be molested by Orochimaru in a drunken dream world" "Naruto, I won't meet up with Minato because I'm not really your mother, just chakra" Naruto is stupid, those things were said to make him feel better and not sad
- as since it's not obvious to you, that's why it's being discussed now
--Elveonora (talk) 17:25, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
Sorry for triple-post, but stating "seemingly" sealed fixes ALL the issues and it's a good compromise for both sides--Elveonora (talk) 17:29, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- I do enjoy numbered responses.
- 2) Different and the same. It's odd. Orochimaru is odd.
- 3) Except we know Tobi was in fact lying about being Madara.
- 4) Orochimaru is aware of Tobi's war. He was sealed before that war started. He said he knew what was going on because he could see it from Anko's seal. Not sure what you are getting at about him for whatever reason not remembering his defeat but /shrug.
- 5) Or it was always there. See how this works yet?
- 6) And this comes from...?
- 7) It's not obvious. Like I said, you believe it's obvious because it reaches a conclusion you but together. There are many things it could have meant.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 17:36, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- I do enjoy numbered responses.
Orochimaru's consciousness did not "shift" his consciousness is within every single person that has received his cursed seal. You're using speculation to string your own conclusions together. Sasuke could have gone to any one of the cursed seal recipients and revived Orochimaru.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:43, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- 3) What I mean is that just as Edo Madara was revived, they found out that Tobi is not Madara. If it was possible for Tobi to be Madara as well like 1 soul 2 bodies, they wouldn't disprove it right away.
- 4) Yes. What I'm getting at is that his chakra/mind was put into Anko before Part I. but it appears he remember everything thus getting pwned and absorbed by Sasuke, Itachi fight etc. thus it's not like this one is pre-part II. Oro and all the knowledge of current events he has is just thanks to Anko
- 5) Sarutobi sealed a part of Oro's soul into Death guy and his arms rotted, thus it doesn't appear like it's exactly Voldemort style, thus putting a part of his soul into many cursed seals, just chakra and we know his is conscious.
- 6) common sense and from what Kishi has established, the "Kushina" in Naruto was a chakra thus her soul being long in the pure world, while I don't think Itachi's Sword and afterlife share the same space
- 7) we can argue for days, or make some compromises like "presumably, seemingly, it appears, likely" not stating something as 100% confirmed and clear while it's not--Elveonora (talk) 17:47, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- 8) @Cerez, only if Orochimaru's soul was available, you think there can be 10 Orochimarus walking around??? ...--Elveonora (talk) 17:47, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- 3)But Tobi was not Madara. The entire thing was to show that he was in fact lying. I'm no longer sure how this even relates anymore.
- 4)Do note that anything Naruto's shadow clones learn or kno get's transferred to his original body. It is possible for knowledge to remain within the consciousness, no matter how divided it ends up.
- 5)Which helps prove my argument so I'm not sure where you are going with this.
- 6)And this again helps prove my point. Kushina remained in Naruto because part of her conciousness was within Naruto's seal, just as Orochimaru remained in his Cursed Seals.
- 7)But what I'm getting at is there is no presumably. We know how the sword works. We don't know how that snake works.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 18:02, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- proved it's not possible to be in 2 different bodies at the same time, thus there can be only 1 soul in 1 body because some thought Tobi to be half Madara's soul, indicating that since Orochimaru's soul got sucked as you say by Totsuka then there shouldn't be one walking around. That's because his soul didn't get sealed.
- it's different as stuff transfer from shadow clones to original after being dispelled, in Orochimaru's case that would mean part of Oro watching from Anko since from years ago and some other part getting sucked by Itachi, this isn't Harry Potter where all souls of Voldemort were connected, unless Kishi confirms so.
- if Oro had separated and put part of his soul into others before, he would be long rotted
- yes, the difference being that Orochimaru's soul as well stayed around, not just consciousness
- we know how the sword works, but you can't say for sure Orochimaru's soul got sucked by it, while there obviously were the snakes around
- you guys are basically saying, that as long as Sasuke has Orochimaru's DNA and finds any cursed seal hosts, he can unseal as many Orochimarus as he want "herp derp"
--Elveonora (talk) 18:13, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- 1)So you're going to use what people speculated outside of universe to what we we were told inside of universe? It doesn't work that way. The entire Madara/Tobi thing about what the hell he was is on a completely different level than this. We know Orochimaru had his consciousness in his seals. We have no idea what is up with Tobi and trying to link the former with fan speculations of the later will ruin your argument.
- 2) I'm starting to notice a very big break between our viewpoints and why this keeps going around and around. You keep pointing out souls. I keep pointing out consciousness.
- 3) Pardon? I think this is linked to the misconception of the whole "soul vs consciousness" thing.
- 4) Now I'm sure there is a break in viewpoints.
- 5) That's exactly what it means. And it makes logical sense. Orochimaru's entire goal was the not die. By making it so that in the event that he does exactly that, his cursed seals will act as soul jars to keep him moving. It of course has one noticeable flaw, it requires someone else to keep bringing him back and if for whatever reason you don't want to do so, he's kinda boned.
- Now getting of the numbered responses, lets take a moment to address this break. You are under the impression that his soul would be sealed in the genjutsu which would make him beyond the means of revival through the Unsealing Method because his soul wouldn't be in the Pure World correct? This assumes a lot of things, one of them being the nature of the genjutsu. According to Nagato when he got sealed, the genjutsu is the afterlife. Which would mean if Orochimaru was in fact, sealed there, he was killed. But we saw Orochimaru come back, and we know it was because his chakra, and parts of his consciousness was within the seals, and when used correctly, allowed him to return, as we've seen. You bring up the white snake as proof that he wasn't sealed. You claim it was to show that he escaped. However, as I've said, I don't see it as such. I see it as foreshadowing that Orochimaru could avoid permanent death on that field and now we know he has.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 19:14, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you are on about, it isn't proved that a soul can be separated and put into multiple bodies in Naruto-verse, if it was possible, Tobi could be Madara but they automatically disproved as such after the sight of the Edo-ed real one.
- I guess so, consciousness = mind not soul.
- Neither Pure or Impure worlds, genjutsu dream of drunken dreams inside of a sword jar I consider a separate space from both.
- Again, that's not what Nagato said. It was simply to make Naruto think he goes to same place as Jiraiya
- Wait, wait ... I say his body got sealed but soul not as he switched to the snakes.
- There's flaw in your logic: You say there can be an infinite number of Orochimarus around... not it's just dumb and unlikely, but also since you say Totsuka Sword = Afterlife/Pure World, then that would mean an other Orochimaru can be brought back by Edo Tensei and there would be 2 walking around
--Elveonora (talk) 19:46, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- 1) I'm still not seeing how this is linked to our argument, especially with an enigma like Tobi.
- 2) And what does that have to do with Orochimaru?
- 3 and 4) And how do you know that is what Nagato was trying to do? How do you know he wasn't in fact going to where Jiraiya is.
- 5) And this is where our break comes in. You say Orochimaru's soul escaped sealing. I say nothing escaped sealing and he was done in. You believe his soul somehow flew from the dead snake into Anko's seal. I'm saying nothing of the sort happened and Orochimaru's consciousness was always in the seal
- 6) The supposed flaw in my argument suggests the idea his soul being split. I make no such assumptions. I say Orochimaru was sealed Itachi, which basically equated to him being killed. Because his chakra/consciousness was safely tucked away in his last cursed seal, he escaped permanent death. Also, we don't know if that exact thing CAN happen. It's completely in the realm of possibility because we simply don't know.
- And with that I suggest we stop this back and forth and let others come in. Because clearly there is a break that neither of us are going to get through discussing it amongst ourselves. This will be my last comment on the matter until more chime in.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 20:24, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- without soul and a physical form, there's no mind/consciousness
- I don't want to offend you... but you should read twice. Are you saying that the "heavens/underworld/pure world/other life/whatever" are inside Totsuka's jar?
- Orochimaru's chakra was always in the seal, the snakes that got burnt were obviously him because Kishimoto wouldn't bother drawing that. The way I see it, he was killed by Amaterasu but his soul stayed in the "impure world" due to his chakra still being bound to a physical form- Anko.
- again, if chakra/dna/consciousness were enough to make a person, Kabuto was/would had become Orochimaru
Right, I'd like an opinion of others as well --Elveonora (talk) 22:39, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
Right, I believe Orochimaru is the most annoying character when it comes on to life and death. Nevertheless, he was sealed by the Totsuka Sword, that is what we know. Those snakes irregardless of what they would have done cannot be taken into account because we do not know for certain what would have happened if they had escaped even if it might be plain as day to you. I keep telling you that we have to record what we see, not what we speculate about. It's fine and whatnot to have in his article that the two snakes ran off and got killed nonetheless but we cannot say "Orochimaru got sealed by the Totsuka Sword but right before two snakes flew off and that was obviously him but they got killed and that's how he died" technically it would be incorrect to even mention his soul "shifting" to Anko's seal '~'. If there was an official source that said yes Oro would have been reborn from those snakes that would be fine but we cannot perpetrate that on the wiki.
As for the rest of the discussion I won't bother elaborating on that because
- I'm not a fan of people talking about where souls go when they die in a specific way because it's simply irrelevant.
- I'd also like you to remember that Orochimaru's cells were in fact taking over Kabuto but he took control of them with (assuming) willpower.
- The same thing is painfully obvious every time someone uses Hashirama's cells and his face starts popping out of their body. I believe the Hashirama's Living Clone is also a prime example of this, sans a consciousness. Danzo had to heavily seal the arm and constantly worry about using Wood Release when he did. If that's not apparent to you then this discussion is going nowhere.--Cerez365™(talk) 10:21, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
- What are you guys talking about??? I'm not even discussing what those snakes would have done, I'm saying it was obviously Orochimaru that had escaped the sealing but got killed by Amaterasu, I'm not even speculating on that, like you do.
The point being, Orochimaru wasn't sucked in, not what would he have done if it wasn't for the snakes dying.
- Orochimaru wouldn't had been reborn from the snakes because he didn't die from the "sealing" the snakes were something like a Body Replacement Technique or Gathering of the Snakes the only thing that got sucked in was his body.
- Kabuto wouldn't have become Orochimaru if the DNA took over. Just Kabuto with mind and appearance of him.
- Exactly, without a soul there's no consciousness
- Danzo wouldn't have turned turned into Hashirama, just into a tree as his arm did.--Elveonora (talk) 14:43, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
- Not doing a full response, because I still hunger for more opinions, but do want to point out;
| What are you guys talking about??? I'm not even discussing what those snakes would have done, I'm saying it was obviously Orochimaru that had escaped the sealing but got killed by Amaterasu, I'm not even speculating on that, like you do.
The point being, Orochimaru wasn't sucked in, not what would he have done if it wasn't for the snakes dying.
- this quote is the speculation. You assume to know what the snake is doing, that orochimaru survied, ect. Me and Cerez are saying, we don't know if any of that is true. What we all do know is that the sword seals the one that gets stabbed by it.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 15:20, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
So they were there for nothing, good to know... there are things like reading comprehension and insight. Those snakes can do nothing because they are dead, so that's not even part of the problem. I'm saying those snakes were him because there's no point in showing:
- random snakes escaping
- getting killed
You see it: Oro was sealed but "likely/presumably" one could have revived him with the snakes but we don't list speculations, I see it: "he was the snakes" that's the problem between us, not to mention the whole soul vs consciousness thing--Elveonora (talk) 16:03, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
- I feel like this is the Tobi issue all over again... Nobody said they were there for no reason. But you are not Masashi Kishimoto, therefore you cannot assume what purpose they would have served and have it represented here as fact. Yes the snakes detached themselves, suppose they were going off to live a happy life in a hole somewhere? or else tell his grandmother that he wouldn't be home? I'm sure you haven't seen us deny that Orochimaru would have been reborn from those snakes but we simply cannot state it as fact. Yes there are things such as "reading comprehension and insight"- I don't know why you believe you have more than the rest of us- but there is also knowing your own limitations as a reader of the manga and a wikipedia editor. Bottom line is we cannot take those snakes into account because there are a million different things they could have ended up doing.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:51, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
Neither one can assume and state it as a fact that Orochimaru got sealed when now he is walking around, making explanations that suit your own interpretations. I'm basing that solely on that one can't exist without a soul, a part of his soul cut (arms) caused him to rot, thus stating he put part of it to every cursed seal host contradicts that, while it was stated in manga to be just chakra. He appears to remember all the events (not talking about the knowledge of the war, like using Sasuke and all), making up that it's all connected Voldemort style is just pure speculation. What I offer is the most logical and in-canon explainable option--Elveonora (talk) 19:58, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
- If that's the case than technically, me and Cerez "win". You say you based on the fact that a soul can't be in two places at once, and yet Mu has the ability to split himself into two or more parts. They succeeded in sealing Mu only for him to escape the sealing with ditching half his chakra in the seal.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 11:38, August 12, 2012 (UTC)
We don't know how Mu's technique works. It appears that the debate is pointless, there was no reason to revert my edit in the first place.--Elveonora (talk) 21:12, August 12, 2012 (UTC)
I don't understand what is happening... Firstly I think you need to understand that Orochimaru's "consciousness" and his "soul" are not the same things. Orochimaru specifically said he poured Senjutsu chakra into Anko's seal which his consciousness also inhabited. I don't understand why him undergoing necrosis, or Harry Potter has to do with this. What Sasuke did was give that consciousness that Oro left in Anko a form, work with what we get in the manga, not your own interpretations that "one cannot exist without a soul". Sometimes people over-analyse everything in the series too much which makes me wonder how they get any enjoyment out of it.--Cerez365™(talk) 09:59, August 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Indeed, this argument is getting circular, so let's get down to business. I'm for removing the "seemingly" at the point where he got sealed, because all evidence points to him being sealed.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 10:06, August 13, 2012 (UTC)
LOL, whatever... list false and unconfirmed information, I don't care.--Elveonora (talk) 15:39, August 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Unless you help Masashi write the manga and can tell us explicitly what those snakes would have gone on and done, I think we have our bases covered.--Cerez365™(talk) 15:47, August 13, 2012 (UTC)
Talk about bias and ignorance... first, there was not a single reason to revert my edit on the Kusanagi page, nor there is to remove "seemingly" The page is about the sword, no reason to mention Orochimaru being sucked there. The latter is less speculative with seemingly, because he from my view, obviously wasn't sealed, but you think your shit smells better than mine.--Elveonora (talk) 15:55, August 13, 2012 (UTC)
My dear friend Cerez, can you please explain how come this conversation did conclude? Explain to me why do we have to rip each other each time, what's bad about seemingly?--Elveonora (talk) 16:49, August 13, 2012 (UTC)
Orochimaru's Defection
Does anyone tell me Orochimaru defected from the village before or after Minato's dead ? thanks 188.8.131.52 (talk) 17:40, August 10, 2012 (UTC)GOd
- Most likely before. We dont have an exact timeframe of how long Minato was Hokage, but we do know Orochimaru got sloppy and caught after Hiruzen made Minato Hokage instead of him.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 17:53, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
Calculate it, Oro was still a Konoha Ninja when he first met Kabuto, the latter was like 7-8 years old and now is 23. Thus shortly after Minato's death Oro was still in Konoha. Tobi attacked Konoha a year after the 3rd Shinobi World War had ended, thus was a Hokage for circa a year or less.--Elveonora (talk) 18:03, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
It may have been closer to two years, since Kakashi was 12 during Kakashi Gaiden and 14 during the Nine-Tails attack.--BeyondRed (talk) 21:18, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
He was 13--Elveonora (talk) 22:22, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
He was 13 during the Kakashi Gaiden and 14 and 25 days during the Kyuubi attack, all can be calculated from their birthdates and ages, Oro left either right before the Kyuubi Attack or after the Kyuubi Attack. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 02:06, September 6, 2012 (UTC)
late reply, and read above. Oro met 9-10 years old Kabuto, thus at least 3 years after Kurama attack, Oro was still a Konoha shinobi--Elveonora (talk) 02:10, September 6, 2012 (UTC)
Orochimaru Fire Element
Hey everyone. So I was watching Naruto Episode 29. In this episode Orochimaru is fighting Naruto and he uses what appears to be a Fire Element: Grand Fireball Technique. I'm not really sure who edits this bio page, but I wanted to help out. Please watch the video (- -no links ಠ_ಠ- -) and go to 14:15.—This unsigned comment was made by 22.214.171.124 (talk • contribs) .
- What you saw was him igniting his Wind Release: Great Breakthrough technique.--Cerez365™(talk) 20:43, September 24, 2012 (UTC)
Oh I see now. Thanks for the info! —This unsigned comment was made by 220.127.116.11 (talk • contribs) .
Reaper Death Seal
Suigetsu seems to be under the impression the only reason Sasuke beat Orochimaru was because he was still handicapped by the Reaper Death Seal, but I thought that swapping bodies at the end of Part 1 cured him. Clarification? 184.108.40.206 (talk) 03:21, September 25, 2012 (UTC)
- People are entitled to their beliefs. Orochimaru did switch bodies but it was severely weakened or possibly defective but by the time Sasuke decided to kill his master, Kabuto was preparing to give him level 10 medicine, it may be possible that this was due to the effects of the Shinigami taking his hands.--Cerez365™(talk) 10:38, September 25, 2012 (UTC)
Orochimaru's stance in the War
This is likely the most speculative and forum-ish thing I have ever posted outside of the very few posts on forums I've made; but is it possible that Orochimaru can make an impact for the Allied Shinobi Forces in the War? I mean what would be the point in Sasuke bringing him back if he doesn't help to make an impact with the current conflicts? 18.104.22.168 (talk) 18:10, October 23, 2012 (UTC)
- Orochimaru has stated that he has 0 interest in the war. Whatever he does will possibly be minimal in the way of helping Sasuke with whatever it is that he's looking for.--Cerez365™(talk) 18:24, October 23, 2012 (UTC)
Thanks again Cerez :) 18.104.22.168 (talk) 18:35, October 23, 2012 (UTC)
Tell me a reason not to delete this, for first:
- You know as much as the rest of us do
- Not a forum
- Cerez isn't Kishimoto, so I don't see how is he authorized to answer
- His strongest Edo Tensei is currently trying to make the whole world a dreamland, that hinders with Orochimaru's ambitions of world ruled by him along with omniscience and omnipotence, there can't be 2 kings sitting on the same throne... Madara was likely his trump card one way or another... now that the whole joint army is battling Kabuto/Madara/Obito, Konoha is defenseless, giving him an opportunity. Just because he says otherwise doesn't mean he isn't lying.
Also remember that Madara is free now, enemy of my enemy is my friend. He might very possibly even help.
One way or another, none of us knows so further discussion is pointless, Kishi likes to twist things --Elveonora (talk) 22:05, October 23, 2012 (UTC)
- I know that -_- Go ahead and delete it. I'm not stupid nor am I ashamed of the simple question I asked. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 12:51, October 24, 2012 (UTC)
Team Orochimaru
Page for it... yay or nay?--Elveonora (talk) 20:52, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
- Suppose Anko is in the same boat as Shizune or Sakura with Tsunade and Jiraiya and Naruto?--Cerez365™(talk) 20:56, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
No, those 3 were a genin team as they took an exam together, and Anko is known to have had only Orochimaru as a sensei. Even if Sakura/Shizune and Naruto were "students" of those respective people, they didn't make any team together--Elveonora (talk) 21:16, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
- She is known to have one but suppose he wasn't their jōnin sensei? Supposed Orochimaru took a liking to Anko and decided to deciple her? That unknown is why we can't assume there was ever a "Team Orochimaru" as much as there being a "Team Tsunade".--Cerez365™(talk) 21:55, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
I know exactly what you mean, but their relationship is strong and there was never a mention of some other person... what's more speculative, team Orochimaru or another sensei theory?--Elveonora (talk) 22:46, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
For what it's worth, the first fanbook has a page showing the various genin teams and includes two question mark spaces next to Anko beneath Orochimaru, implying that he did have a full genin team.--BeyondRed (talk) 02:59, November 7, 2012 (UTC)
Even then, we know Kabuto's Trainer was on her genin team as well. So what are the odds of this guy, being on the same team as Orochimaru's old student, then ending up as the sensei to three of Orochimaru's spies? I know they say two times is a coincidence, but not in writing it isn't. Seems pretty much unfeasible that this guy crosses paths with Orochimaru's disciples twice as teammates and yet was never mentored by the guy. --Hawkeye2701 (talk) 05:32, November 7, 2012 (UTC)
Exactly, we must also take into consideration that he made no appearance in manga after exams, anime doesn't count. For what he know, he is Orochimaru's spy as well and had left the village. Chances of the three not being ex-team Orochimaru are slim--Elveonora (talk) 13:49, November 7, 2012 (UTC)
personality edit
I agree with the arrogance part, but it's not entirely correct. He agreed himself as inferior to Itachi, even wanting Sasuke's body first so he could have stood a chance. Sasuke one the other hand, was nothing more than a vessel for him that he had underestimated, attempting to take over despite being the weaker one at the time. Another example would be Madara's Edo Tensei, trying to control powers he himself can't fathom (Sharingan and Hashi's DNA lol) That's all ._. maybe we should also mention that the word failure says nothing to Orochimaru... playing with fire despite being burnt... one doesn't simply die once--Elveonora (talk) 00:05, November 20, 2012 (UTC)
I would like to know where it is stated that Orochimaru knows "well Zetsu's nature and Tobi's machination to revive the Ten-Tails".--220.127.116.11 (talk) 06:36, November 26, 2012 (UTC)
number of missions
yeah i know this was talked about already but his number of missions was stated as (while in the leaf village) in one of the data books. should we put it here if its in a databook184.108.40.206 (talk) 18:50, December 7, 2012 (UTC) naruhina4ever
- so can i change it???126.96.36.199 (talk) 17:59, December 14, 2012 (UTC)NaruHina4ever
I think since the databook has put the part "while in the leaf village" i think it should be after his missions. Because who knows he could have had more missions when he was in the sound village. even though he is a leader of a village doesnt mean he doesnt go out of the village like when he went to that bridge with kabuto to see sasori that could have been a mission and since he could have went on a "mission" like that before the start of the series i think the "while in konoha" should be added. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 16:28, December 26, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
- After he left Konoha, he could not have done any other official missions because he would be a missing-nin. Then as the founder of Otogakure, he would not have gone on any missions either. Ergo, the addition of "while in the Leaf Village" is moot because there's nowhere else he could have completed official missions.--Cerez365™(talk) 16:35, December 26, 2012 (UTC)
- oww not even in his own village??22.214.171.124 (talk) 19:19, December 26, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
I think it was mentioned early on that S-rank Missions are reserved for high ranking Jounin and village leaders. Not to mention, while not exactly canon, we've seen A and Tsunade both undertake missions while in office. --Hawkeye2701 (talk) 20:03, December 26, 2012 (UTC)
but still before he was a leader of a village he was in akastuki and they did missions for villages for cheap to get money, and all thoughs guys/gale were criminals. 184.108.40.206 (talk) 15:04, December 27, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
- Those are not official missions. Official missions can only be given by a Kage/possibly a village leader. That is why there's no need to mention the in Konoha bit, because after he left Konoha, he never carried out another official mission.--Cerez365™(talk) 15:07, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
- Onoki hired akastuki all the time, last i checked he was a kage. 184.108.40.206 (talk) 18:28, December 27, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
The latest chapter indicated that he might be one.--Elveonora (talk) 15:20, January 16, 2013 (UTC)

Ray Isle (@islewine on Twitter) is Food & Wine's executive wine editor. We trust his every cork pop and decant – and the man can sniff out a bargain to boot. Take it away, Ray.
It's rare that one family will tolerate two stars. Think about it - Alec Baldwin? Definitely a star. Other Baldwins? Sort of famous, but just not quite real stars. Ditto Owen and Luke Wilson. Luke, excellent actor, really appealing on-screen, but just doesn't quite have the particular audience-drawing whatever-it-is-ness that his odd-nosed older brother has. Not fair, but hard to argue with.
The same is pretty much true of wine regions. Usually, one grape gets to be the star. The others may have nice careers, may produce really charming wine, but they never quite get the acclaim that the leading variety does. Napa Valley, for instance, produces a lot of very good Merlot, Petite Sirah, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc - but Cabernet Sauvignon is without doubt the leading grape there.
Barbera, while less famous and less regal than Nebbiolo, is a charming grape. It produces an ideal lunch wine too, by which I mean it tends not to be high in tannins or alcohol. And regarding meals in general, its bright berry-like flavor and brisk acidity make it an ideal partner for all kinds of food. A great Barbera isn't a lesser wine compared with a great Nebbiolo; it just plays a different role or serves a different purpose. In a way, rather than demand that you admire it, it simply asks that you drink it: no more than that, and no less. And that's enough.
2010 Fontanafredda Briccotondo Barbera ($12)
2010 Michele Chiarlo Le Orme Barbera d'Asti ($12)
2009 Boroli Quattro Fratelli Barbera d'Alba ($15)

More Tanzanian goods have started getting recognition after the country started using barcodes officially.
Speaking to journalists in Dar es Salaam on Thursday, Acting of Tanzania Private Sector Foundation (TPSF) vice chaiperson Aloyce Mwamanga said Tanzanian products previously used Kenyan or South African barcodes to trade in supermarkets and outside the country.
"Previously products were not recognized as products from Tanzania when exported as they were using foreign barcodes, In this trend, at least we are sure that the country will raise economic growth," Mwamanga said.
He added that since the long time wait and fight for it now through barcodes, traders will raise their market shares, a thing that will help boost revenue for the government.
According to Mwamanga, barcodes will help to reduce problems associated with forgery since every product will have recognized barcodes as security and recognition in business.
The intention of using barcodes, he said, is to give the private sector the priority it deserves in business within the country and outside.

Recirculating Range Hood (Optional): Recirculating range hoods require no external venting of air. Instead, air is pushed through a charcoal filtration system that removes pollutants before circulating it back into the home. The benefit of such a system is that household temperatures and humidity are easier to maintain, as the internal air never leaves the kitchen. A recirculating range hood is also generally far easier to install, as complex ventilation systems and vent pipe are not required.

TRIANGLE, Va. (WUSA) -- A man reported that he was attacked by three males on Chestnut Drive in Triangle at approximately 12:30 a.m. on Friday and then stabbed in the neck.
According to Prince William County police, they responded to the 18300 block of Chestnut Drive at 12:32 a.m. to investigate a reported stabbing. They then found a 41-year-old man lying in front of a home in the 18400 block of Woodland Dr.
The man told them that he was assaulted by 3 males on Chestnut Dr. and during the attack one man stabbed him in the neck. The victim then walked to the home of an acquaintance on Woodland Dr. where he was later found by officers.
The victim suffered life threatening injuries to his upper body and was flown to an area hospital.

Comments On Jan 21, 2011:I had this rack on the back of my 2007 XR650L. It has a sub frame that is narrow, and will catch on the lugs of a knobby tire, eliminating the last 4 inches of wheel travel. When landing even moderate jumps or riding whoops, the rear tire will bind up between the sides of this narrow bracket and stop the back tire, tossing you over the handle bars. If you never leave the ground, you will be ok. But for any serious riding, this is NOT your rack. I?m sure different motorcycles have different ways of being attached, so this review only applies to the XR650L.

Hit the Pipe is a mission in The Lost and Damned. It is given by Jim Fitzgerald to Johnny Klebitz.
Arriving at Jim's location you'll be treated to a somewhat brief cutscene. Here, he'll introduce you to two members of the Uptown Riders, another motorcycle club who favor selling their club's merchandise and riding Japanese sports bikes as opposed to the choppers that The Lost Brotherhood and The Angels of Death use. One member is named Malc, who will give you some pipe bombs. Turns out three AOD vans are driving around Alderney at this very moment and you've been tasked with taking them down.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Destroy the three Angels of Death vans
Despite being given pipe bombs and being instructed to use them on the vans, this doesn't work all too well. Instead, getting into a large SUV like the Cavalcade and gunning the vans down with an Uzi or your Sawn-off Shotgun. Another cheap way to finish them all off is to hop into the back of a taxi, set a Waypoint on the map near one of the red dots, hurry the taxi up, once the cab ride has ended, hijack the same cab that took you there, chase the van and kill - repeat for the 2nd and 3rd targets. Last but not least, simple driving up to the van with your bike and shooting into the rear wheel well a couple of times with your trusty Sawn-off will set a van ablaze, letting you go take care of the next one. The individual AOD members aren't important, so don't worry about killing them - the vans are the priority. This mission also has no time limit and the vans won't simply escape your grasp as vehicles do in most other missions, so you can leisurely take down all three. Once that's done, so is the mission. Prepare to work with Malc in the future.
Video Walkthrough
- This mission introduces the use of Pipe Bombs.
- This mission Introduces two characters from the Uptown Riders Motorcycle Club: Malc and DeSean.
- The player doesn't really need to use the pipe bombs to complete the mission and can blow up the vans by any means.

Be sure to stop by and check out the updated version of these cards for 2013.
A friend of mine posted the cutest Valentine Day card on her blog last year, and I have been waiting for Valentine's Day to come around so that I could make them.
I decided to make them early, so that I could blog about it and give the rest of you plenty of time to make your own. =)
-X-Acto Knife
-Printer (or take it to a one-hour photo processing store)
First take a photo of your child with their arm stretched out and their hand is clenched in a fist. This is the challenging part, especially if your child is younger (as you can see below).
|We had to do retakes the next day because she was being so silly.
Once you get the photo you want, upload it to your computer. I decided to add a Valentine's message to the card so I used Picasa (which is a free program you can download online).
|Click the ABC text box
Then type any message you want...choosing the size, color and font that looks best. Once you are done, go to "File" then "Save as", and name your photo. You can now print the photo off your printer. I uploaded mine to Costco.com and ordered their 4x6 prints, which are 13 cents a photo.
Once you have your pictures printed, take an X-Acto knife and carefully cut a line across the top and bottom of your child's fist. (note the dotted lines in photo below:)

fierce, youre worse than a 5 yr old child to argue with. Now you're trying to deny your attempt to drag Sam into your many fights with people here..
"So Karl, Rally, and all you Rondo haters go ahead and bash Sam now for not saying the Celtics are better off without Rondo.
Or you Rondo haters are too scared of Sam?"
Cant fight your own battles, sonnyboy? and why would I be scared of Sam or anyone else on a message board?? Sam has his opinion and everyone else their own.
You really need to talk to someone professionally and I'm not trying to be funny about it
Are you nuts?
Every poster on this board that disagreed with you Rondo haters got attacked by you Rondo haters!
So now what you're implying is Sam is exempted from your attacks?
Um, I dont attack anyone, just respond usually. On the other hand, you have a long list of admirers here (((sarcasm))) and frequently call names.
btw, what is this fascination you have with Sam?? Something youd like to talk about?

Sam -- nice to hear from you. I hope you & your family are ok.
I appreciate your intellegent opinion on Rondo discussions. Always nice to read a credible & reliable opinion from someone like you. There are couple of people in this forum worthy to read too but sad to say the trolls and the wannabes destroyed this site. I will confess I missed your thread and post so much.
For now, I hope (Boston.com - Celtics fans) here has an opportunity to read your thread and respond before someone destroy & bully this discussion. Thank you very much Sam.

In response to SlipperySam's comment:
First of all, I never got an opportunity to wish all the best to this board, and everyone on it, for a wonderful 2013.
Che, I got word you mentioned my name on this board, wondering about my take on Rondo. I don't know which thread it was on, so I'm taking the liberty of starting my own thread to respond. Actually, I'm just posting something I wrote on my own board. Granted, it was written before the Celtics lost Barbosa, but that really didn't affect my thinking on the matter. So here goes:Juggling Chairs and Balls This is a Boston Celtics message board. You remember the Celtics. Through the years, they've arguably been associated with team basketball more consistently than any other franchise. They've won as a team. They've lost as a team. For better or worse, almost never have their fortunes been tied mainly to one player, despite a fairly constant procession of superstars and hall-of-famers through their ranks. They've never had a league scoring champion, but they've had plenty of league assist champions. The Celtics' collaborative approach to basketball is so deeply engrained that it qualifies as a tradition.
Consequently, it really bothers me when I see any one Celtic player singled out as THE source of positives OR negatives associated with the team. With the Celtics, it's NEVER just one player. And that has never been more true than in the case of Rajon Rondo.
The current question making the rounds should not be whether the Celtics are better off with or without Rondo. The question should be whether the Celtics are better off with the type of play they're now employing—whatever mix of factors has brought it about. Clearly, the answer is yes. And I understand that there's a natural inclination to play the blame game.
But there's usually more than one factor involved in everything that happens to the Celtics. And more than one factor is affecting their new style of play. As BobH and others have noted, the defensive improvement began well before Rondo was lost for the season. I've been bellyaching all season long because the offense was so stagnant. Was that solely due to Rondo, or was there some reason beyond his control that made him pound the ball outside? Is Rondo responsible for motivating his teammates to move without the ball, move the ball, and space the floor well…or is that Doc's job? Should the players new to the team have made more of an effort to get into the swing of things, or were any such attempts hampered by the complexity of the defense and the aforementioned stagnation of the offense? You can bet your life that all of those factors, and others, played a role in a season that seemed to be going nowhere until Rondo (and, shortly thereafter, Sully) left the team.
So what has been responsible for the very quick turnaround in the past four games? Is it simply that they could be better off without Rondo? That's not the constructive way to look at it.
Have you ever played musical chairs? Every time a chair is removed, what happens? The remaining participants become more alert and anticipatory, and you can see them ready to pounce at any moment on the chairs that remain. They become increasingly invigorated by the adrenalin the diminishing number of chairs is blasting through their bodies. Things become more simplified, as there are increasingly fewer chairs on which to concentrate. Out of the corners of their eyes, they watch their opponents for any advantage on which they can capitalize.
Right now, the Celtics are both the victims and the beneficiaries of a game of—let's call it musical balls. They're all good athletes; they know how to play the game; and they have the capacity to play team ball—Celtics ball. But now, their immediate goals (or roles) have become magnified, simplified, and clarified. And guess what has happened. The ball game has changed, and there are now just as many musical balls as players, so they can forget about concentration on the scarcity of balls and play with the abandon and freedom associated with rewarding collaboration.
Yes, it happens that the loss of Rondo was arguably the most pervasive that could ever have been inflicted on this team. It wasn't that he unilaterally did a lot of hardheaded, bad things. I believe he tried very hard (and understandably became sporadically disillusioned about the lack of success). And, as he searched for ways to be a better leader, he got into some habits that proved counterproductive; and his teammates accorded him greater deference as the team became increasingly Rondo-centric. It turned out that he was both a victim and a partial cause of circumstances.
Ironically, it is the very magnitude of Rondo's loss that has ultimately resulted in better focus, motivation, anticipation, circling of the wagons, and readiness to capitalize on opportunities. And hopefully, it has driven home to Doc the fact that this is a virtual blueprint for the manner in which the game should be played in order for a team like this to succeed—with or without Rondo. And, when Rondo returns, and depending on how the musical chairs are arranged next season, here's hoping the lessons now being learned will continue to guide their play—with Rondo being the one who is asked to fit in as one of the team leaders rather than being given the independent mantle of lord of the manor. Go Celtics! And take care, everyone.

Wow, what a lot of responses! I respect them all, and I got a good refresher in my motivations for taking the course of action I did a couple of years ago. Don't worry, runrunandrun, I'm going back to my own, very civil and convivial board. Although we don't play a lot of Bingo, you are correct that our board does include a lot of maturity—especially basketball pedigrees (Jerry Tarkanian was a member for a long time)—as well as a lot of considerably younger people. The important thing, I guess, is that all the generations represented in our forum usually get along well enough so we can focus on making interesting points rather than on berating one another.
I hadn't originally intended to stay here longer than to answer Che's question and say hi to my remaining friends. It was certainly not my intent to get into the middle of what is obviously an ongoing battle about the merits and faults of Rondo. I hope at least some of you will remember my main message was that the only constructive way to look at this situation is not to be preoccupied with the pros and cons of Rondo. Whatever dynamics were involved, the team's system of play has rapidly morphed in a very positive direction, and that's where my focus is.
Here's hoping Doc, Rondo and the rest of the remaining team members (and any new ones Danny adds) can and will embrace the new style of play on an ongoing basis. It's fair to debate whether or not Rondo can live within those constraints. As for my thoughts on the matter, I'm more in the "hoping" business than the prediction business.
A word to Che. I believe you're in the Boston area, aren't you? We always said we'd split a bottle of sake some time. If you're ever interested in doing that for real, email me at email@example.com.
I always respond to messages. So this will be my finale on this thread unless someone addresses me personally in a new message.
All the best, and Go Celtics!
Re: Note to Che and Anyone Else from Slippery Sam

Sam - I might as well let you know what I think of Rondo's discussions. My indication on Rondo's issue was when Allen left. I'm pretty sure this was an old issue, it was addressed but went to Rondo's way. Another indication was when Barbosa made noises on the ball handling issue and I thought he's looking to leave. - I like Barbosa very much. So, I blamed on Doc & Ainge and this issue matured and the chalkboard locked into Rondo's way. It takes 5 to win a ball game. I hope they learn a lesson.
I shuttled between two places. I live in Connecticut & Florida. Last year, my family setup another business at Key Largo. It's an industrial business for Marinas. I like it here very much, i don't plow & shovel snow. They send me in Brazil sometimes ( i hate it there). On summer, I will be back in the Northeast and will try to contact you. Beside sake, I will bring u some sapporo-asahi & kirin beer.
Thank you.

There's no iconic status. I'm just a guy who"s been a rabid Celtics fan since 1950, joined the BDC board in 2005, and was a board member for about four years. I'll always be grateful to BDC for getting me started on a Celtics message board because I never thought I was the "message board type" (whatever the heck that is).
After a bunch of us became totally disenchanted by troll activity, we formed our own message board called "Sam's Celtics Forum," which is dedicated to convivial and knowledgeable conversation. Some of those who went with me also continue to be active on this BDC board.
I guess we've had something like 250 members, but there are probably more like 50-75 frequent contributors from around the country and abroad. We have our share of skirmishes, but the important underlying factor is that we respect one another, even when we disagree. We even have three friendly Lakers fans among our members. We have occasional parties (so far in Boston four times, San Francisco twice, and New York City).
I view our forum as having been time well spent because it has evolved into far more than a chat room. It is also a virtual mutual support system, in which we occasionally rally around a member who's having problems—including talking our treasured friend Jeb through the last year of his life (including raising money for him) and establishing a Sam's Hall of Fame with Jeb as the single Charter Member (with a trophy to boot).
My board name pays homage to Celtic legend "Slippery Sam" Jones, who has been a close personal friend since 1967. I'll be seeing him and Gladys for lunch or dinner in April. He got me into the famous "Balloon" Lakers Final Game of 1969, and I wrote a 32-page booklet about the experience of traveling, living, and partying with the team. You can find the booklet on our site (under "Sam's Writings") without any need to join. Or you can email me at firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll email you a copy. There's no charge, and I don't sell people's email addresses.
I know our forum wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, and I appreciate that many people prefer a more contentious atmosphere. Different forums meet different needs. I also realize some people will dump all over this explanation, which is their right. All I know is that I'm a perpetually happy Celtics fan at nearly age 76, and that's good enough for me.
I think the BDC Celtics Forum deserves all sorts of credit for pioneering in the field, and it's a pleasure to drop in occasionally (as I'm still technically a member) to say hello.
Best regards,

In response to prakash's comment:
Wow! For the uninitiated, "Who is slippery Sam?" What is the history behind his seeming iconic status with some posters? I haven't seen him here since I joined.
Sam got freaked out by trolls and left the board and most of the people that were here left with him.
The board was very diffeent 3 or 4 years ago.
This board is a mess but I prefer to be somewhere that is open to all. Call me crazy.

|Summon Imp
|Usable by
|(GCD 1.5 sec)
|Level required
Summon Imp is a core warlock ability learned at level one. It allows warlocks to summon an imp that follows their commands. It is a permanent minion that exists until dismissed or killed.
- [Firebolt]: method of attack, see notes
- [Flee]: call back imp; removes stun and roots on minion
- [Cauterize Master]: heals the warlock
- [Singe Magic]: harmful magic removal
Modified by
- [Grimoire of Supremacy] (talent)
- [Soulburn] ( affliction spec ability - instant summon)
- [Mastery: Master Demonologist] ( demonology spec ability)
- [Demonic Rebirth] ( demonology spec ability)
- Glyph of Demon Training
- Major Glyph
- Classes: Warlock
- Requires level 25
- "Improves your demon's special abilities:
Your Imp's Firebolt (Fel Imp's Felbolt) cast time is reduced by 50% and fires in bursts of three.
Increases your Voidwalker's (Voidlord's) total armor by 10%.
Your Succubus's Seduction (Shivarra's Mesmerize) ability also removes all damage over time effects from the target.
When your Felhunter uses Devour Magic (Observer uses Clone Magic), you will also be healed.
Increases your Felguard's (Wrathguard's) total health by 20%."
The Imp's only method of attacking is through the use of its Firebolt. It uses lots of energy on this attack and won't use it again until it has the energy.
- Make sure Firebolt is put on auto in the pet abilities bar: right-click to enable.
- Make sure the target is not fire immune because the Imp will not attack.
- The Imp's Firebolt also can be resisted, which definitely hurts the Imp. However, the Imp can also have its Firebolts crit to do extra damage.
Patch changes
- Patch 5.2.0 (5-Mar-2013): The Imp ability Blood Pact has been removed.
- Patch 3.3.0 (08-Dec-2009): This ability is now available from the trainer for level 1 warlocks and no longer requires a quest to learn.
- / Patch 3.0.2 (14-Oct-2008): Health increased by 20% , Armor increased 16%, mana regeneration increased 200%.
- Patch 2.0.3 (09-Jan-2007): Warlock pet "Imp" will now correctly receive their spell damage bonus.

Plenty of Picking at the Sumner Bluegrass Jamboree
Submitted on March 25, 2013 at 10:27 AM
The second annual Sumner County Bluegrass Jamboree is coming to Volunteer State Community College on Saturday, April 13 and everyone is invited to enjoy the free competitions and concerts. The event is hosted by Vol State as part of the bluegrass music degree program at the College.
The competition starts at noon with Mandolin, Guitar, Pee Wee Fiddle, Beginner Fiddle, Junior Fiddle, Senior Fiddle, Pee Wee Dancing, Junior Dancing, and Senior Dancing categories. There will be monetary prizes and judging by bluegrass veterans. Registration is free and open to everyone. Sign-up will be held the day of the event starting at 10 a.m. The public is invited to watch the players square off.
"It's fun. I just enjoy it and I've played a lot," said nine year-old Ivy Phillips of Chapmansboro at last year's Jamboree. "Playing is what I love to do."
"She's got nerves of steel," said fiddle teacher Adam Chowning of Goodlettsville. "It's kind of neat to see them learn the song and they go out on the stage with it."
The Jamboree will also feature jamming and concerts in the afternoon. The Great Smoky Mountain Bluegrass Band from East Tennessee and the Vol State group Bluegrass Ablaze are set to perform. Roland White will play and present a master class on guitar and mandolin. Finger style guitarist Don Jones will demonstrate his technique. Aaron Till and Billy Contreras will perform on the fiddle. The emcee for the Jamboree will once again be Marcia Campbell from WSM radio.
The Sumner County Bluegrass Jamboree will be held from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. at Caudill Hall on the Vol State campus at 1480 Nashville Pike in Gallatin. There is plenty of free parking and food will be available for sale. For more information visit www.volstate.edu/bluegrass or call 615-452-8600, extension 2936.
