- You have to vote for what tribute you want to die each day. You can send in your votes via the comment section. The tribute with the most votes will be killed off. If there's any fights, I will resort to using a random number generator instead.
- Tributes can be sent unexpected sponsors from the Capitol which will either be rigged with something nasty or something useful. This depends on how much impact your tribute has made on the Capitol. So send in handy advice!
- The disasters will occur at either a bad or unexpected time.
- 1 tribute from the previous Games has been resurrected.
- All of the chariot parade outfits will be rated by two 'fashionistas' from the Capitol (really, I'll be rating the outfits). This influences how well your tribute will do in the Games.
The Fallen
The tributes that die will be listed here.
Arena Information
Tomma Tigre's POV - Story Introduction
It's been a year since I won the Games. I was 17 then. I'm 18 now. I've been on the Victory Tour and visited the many districts. District 4 and 8 were furious to see me since I killed Mist and Poppa.
I'm still shocked. How on earth could I kill Mist and Poppa? Poppa could have easily killed me with his mental capacity and Mist had way too many weapons.
Well, now I'm home. Home, where I truly belong.
I settle down in my house in the Victor's Village, after a hectic day of venturing District 12. 1 year ago, I was a stranger. Now, I'm a celebrity.
I turn on the TV, when...
"Ladies and gentleman, I have an announcement to make." It was President Maysall, with his grey hair and snow white beard.
"Tomorrow, the Capitol and the districts will have a reaping. The children picked at the reaping will be this year's tributes for the 2nd Annual Hunger Games. They will fight to the death in an arena, that is situated right here in the Capitol, until there is one remaining. Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favour!"
Resurrection of Sabrina Prescott - President Maysall's POV
Last year's Games. What could I say. They were very action packed and full of rivalries. It even surprised me that the kid with bipolar became victor. I thought he would have died halfway.
But who cares? It's all about these Games.
Just as I think of these Games, I get an amazing idea.
Resurrect one of the dead tributes and make them compete again.
"Lucentio, Martina, Calania, come here please!" The three Gamemakers appear before me.
"I want you to make a replica of Sabrina Prescott's dead body and then resurrect her." I order them.
"But President, you could resurrect anyone who died in the previous Games. Why Sabrina?" Lucentio asks me.
"She was my favourite so I'm giving her another chance." I reply.
"President, you do know that the resurrection machine ages any dead people by a year." Calania remarks.
"JUST DO IT!" I shout. They run off into the resurrection room. I sit down and wait anxiously for an 18 year old woman to walk out of the doors.
1 hour later...
Sabrina Prescott and the three Gamemakers appear.
"Hello Miss Prescott. You've been resurrected. You are now 18 years old." I say to her.
"Why am I alive again?" She asks me.
"Because you were my favourite, so I'm giving you another chance. Only thing is, you have to fight in The Hunger Games. If you win, you get to live the rest of your life. If you don't, we won't resurrect you again." I reply.
Satin Silver Clos, District 1 Female
It's that wonderful time of year again. Reaping Day.
Another chance to volunteer.
Without thinking twice, I decide to volunteer. I knew that with volunteering comes thousands of fighting kids who all want one thing, to be a tribute. But who cares? Not me! I can easily knock them out with my high heels.
I observe my opponents whilst inhaling the smell of perfume, new clothes and wine.
The same smells every year.
Minutes after I finish my observation, our district escort Lia Jacintha walks out onto the stage in a gold, sequined dress and a matching headband. At first, most of us didn't like Lia but we managed to get used to her as time went on.
"Hello, District 1. Oh, I love coming back here." She remarks as she grins at us.
Her trademark grin.
"As you already know, we have to pick the tributes for this year's Hunger Games. But before we do that, we have a special message from the Capitol!" In her speeches, she always emphasized the Capitol part. Originally, I guessed it might have been down to pride but after two years, I ruled it out. So I'm still trying to figure out a reason as to why she does it.
Even though I've already seen this video, I watch it again.
Just for the hot, topless boy that appears in it.
And when he does make his appearance, I smile to myself and try to imagine what it would be like if he was in District 1. Silky blonde hair, big blue eyes, nice body.
I wish I could meet someone like that. Someone who hasn't had a crush on me in the past. Unfortunately, most of District 1's male population has dreamed about me being their girlfriend.
Eventually, I turn my attention to Lia.
"Now, it's the moment you've been waiting for. Time to pick the tributes!" She walks over to the male reaping bowl first. Most of them were getting ready to fight their way to the stage.
"Dave Strider!" She reads out in excitement. The males quickly fight each other. I just watch in amusement as some of the 15 year olds get pushed aside by the 17 and 18 year olds. Some of the 16 year olds tried to fight them off but the combined strength of the older males meant that they didn't have a chance.
Then out of nowhere, a boy from the 16 year olds barrier, with what looked like white hair, glasses and red eyes, ran through the barriers. He nearly got his glasses smashed but he managed to make it to the stage.
"Are you Dave Strider, sweetie?" Lia asks the boy.
"Yes." He simply replies. She walks away from him to go to the female reaping bowl. I prepare by taking off my high heels. By the time I've finished taking them off, she's moments away from reading the name on the slip of paper out.
"Clarissa Lavell!" She reads out. 3...2...1, I race out of my barrier and fight my opponents. Most of them tried to stop me but one whack of my high heels and I gave them constant nosebleeds.
Nice try, lovelies.
I look over my shoulder. I've defeated four barriers of girls. I climb over the 12 year olds barrier. They try to hold me back but I send them to the floor.
I make my way near the stage, before shouting:
Lia turns to see me. I make my way onto the stage. I hear several wolf whistles so I respond back by blowing kisses at them. One boy even fainted.
"Who are you?" She asks.
"I'm Satin Silver Clos." I reply.
I've made it. Let the fun and games begin.
Mario Adams, District 2 Male
Reaping Day. Unlike most of the District 2 (maybe even District 1 as well) citizens who think of it as a major celebration, I think of it as something that just happens.
That's because I ain't like the other citizens.
Currently, I'm stood in the 17 year old's barrier. Everyone looked quite sadistic and ready to volunteer. Me? I'm just stood here, waiting for the time to come.
I do, however, share the same objective as the others. I want to win.
The others want to win for the fame and the riches. I just want to win so I can avenge my brother's death.
Our district escort walks onto the stage, wearing a bright yellow suit. He looked quite miserable. I forgot his name.
Oh well, I don't care.
"Right. Let's just get this over and done with." He says. We thought he was going to show us the video about the history of Panem but surprisingly, he didn't. It didn't take long for someone to question him about it.
"Hey, why aren't you showing the video?" The girl asked.
"I can't be bothered and I don't want to stay here long." He replied before walking over to the male reaping bowl.
"Mario Adams." He announced in a deep, uninterested voice. I got out of my barrier and let the males to fight amongst each other. I knew that if I didn't get to the stage quick enough, someone would volunteer to take my place and I would have to wait a whole year for the next reaping.
Luckily, everyone was too occupied with fighting.
To everyone's dismay, I managed to get to the stage in time. There, I met the district escort.
"Mario?" He asks. I nod.
I sit down and look at everyone. Most of the males were giving me dirty looks. Angry at me for making it to the stage before them.
So what? Look at me all you want. You know you'll have to wait another year to try again.
I didn't pay much attention to the reaping of the female tribute. All of them were fighting when the name was revealed.
Eventually, a pretty looking girl with blonde hair and purple eyes went up the stairs on the opposite side. Her dress looked like something a figure skater would wear.
Too bad, prettiness in the Games leaves you with a slit throat and a bloody outfit.
"I'm Emily Fry." The girl says.
It's time to focus now, Mario. Focus and you'll get far.
Rebekah Ure, District 5 Female
I couldn't really focus much at the reaping. The smoke from the power plants nearby made me cough a lot.
Disgusting smoke.
Because I was 12, I was in the first barrier, which was right near the stage.
Well at least I've got something to look forward to. My birthday's soon.
Our district escort, Melanie something (I kinda forgot her surname), walked out. She was looking rather disgusted than happy.
Maybe it's down to the hideous outfit she's wearing.
She was wearing a multi coloured satin dress with a matching hat. The dress looked incredibly tacky and the hat. The hat was awful. It looked like a large multi coloured strip of bacon.
"Hello there, District 5!" Melanie cheers. None of us respond and there was a silence until...
"You look like a strip of bacon that's just met a rainbow." Someone from the male side remarks. Within seconds, everyone was laughing. I joined in.
Melanie looked increasingly angry. Her face was starting to go red.
"JUST SHUT UP! YOU MAY THINK YOU'RE SMART, LAUGHING BUT YOU WON'T BE LAUGHING WHEN ONE OF YOUR NAMES GET PICKED!" She yelled. The laughter died down almost immediately, leaving everyone with shocked faces.
"Now, time to watch the video." The screen plays the same Capitol propaganda they show every year.
References to the rebellion, the president that re-established the Hunger Games, the rule that District 13 and the Capitol will now participate and the amount of victors made.
After literally yawning of boredom, it was finally time to pick the tributes. The male was first.
"Albert Heller Brites." One boy came out of the 16 year's old barrier. He had significantly messy brown hair but his eyes were soft brown.
He made his way onto the stage, looking quite scared and worried.
"Are you Albert?" She asks.
"Yes." He replies. He immediately rushes to the seats nearby and clutches his stomach, like he was about to vomit.
Please don't vomit. I don't want to be put off.
She goes over towards the female reaping bowl. Secretly, I hoped that no one that I knew would get picked.
"Rebekah Ure!" She shouts.
I didn't expect to get reaped!
My heart was racing. I...was chosen. All I wanted to do now was to make my way up the stage and choke Melanie to death. But unfortunately, I couldn't do it since the reaping was being broadcasted throughout Panem.
Instead, I made my way up the stage and stood as far away from her as possible.
"Come closer. I don't bite." She remarked. I took just one step, trying not to choke her.
Damn it, my habit kicked in at the wrong time.
"Well there you have it. District 5, meet your tributes!"
Willie Fry, District 12 Male
We had already watched the video from the Capitol and now, we were just moments away from our district escort, Cladella, revealing District 12's tributes.
I couldn't find my sister or her boyfriend anywhere. I was getting increasingly anxious and worried.
Who am I supposed to rely on for support?
Because of my age, I was near the front. The only barrier in front of us was that of the 12 year olds.
Just as she picks up the slip of paper from the reaping bowl, I run out of the barrier.
"I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!" I shout. Cladella throws the paper back into the reaping bowl.
"Come up here then." She yells as I make my way onto the stage. She shoves a microphone into my face.
"What's your name?"
"Willie Fry." I reply. I observe everyone to see their reactions. The emotion I could truly see the most was surprise. There was even surprise from the boys who bullied me. It took me a while to find my sister, who looked more distraught then ever.
Eventually, she walks out of her barrier. Peacekeepers get ready to grab her when...
"I VOLUNTEER AS FEMALE TRIBUTE!" She shouts. She makes her way onto the stage on the opposite side.
"What's your name?" She asks, sloppily forcing the microphone near my sister's mouth.
"Charlie Fry." She replies.
"Great. District 12, you have siblings for tributes. Congratulations." Cladella shouts as she makes me and Charlie join hands in unison.
Does this mean that I have to kill my sister to go home? Could Emily be in these Games as well? If so, do I have to kill her to get home as well? Do I have to kill two people who share the same blood as me?
I'm doomed...
Tomma Tigre's POV
I couldn't do it. I couldn't bare watching the reaping. Instead, I stayed on the train and waited for the tributes to arrive along with the district escort.
I'm a mentor now. I'm either going to see one of my protégés win or I could watch them both die. That's the reality.
All I could feel right now was anxiety. I could feeling some sort of tingling in my arms and I watched the hairs on them stand up.
I grab a cupcake with pink icing and a little edible flower on top, hoping it would help cure my anxiety. It was the first thing I had decided to eat since finding out that I was going to be a mentor.
Just as I got ready to indulge into the cupcake, several flashes appeared and swarms of paparazzi from the Capitol burst out. I could hear them yelling my name and the annoying clicks of the cameras.
They then turned their attention to the left, giving me time to close the curtains.
They're coming.
"Charlie! Willie! Cladella!" was all I could hear for the next five minutes. There was a group of footsteps and soon, the train door opened. Some paparazzi tried to get into the train but luckily, there was security who threw them back onto the platform in the station.
"Tomma! Here are your tributes, Charlie and Willie Fry." Cladella announced. Both of them had bloodshot eyes, as if they had just been crying.
"Are you guys siblings?" I ask them.
"Yes." Charlie replies. They still looked traumatised.
Guys, I will do all I can to keep you alive. I'm not letting the Capitol have more fun for another year.
Chariot Parade
Anne Thistle, Capitol Female
I wake up in my hotel room. Since the compartments were in order, the Capitol's compartment was on the ground floor. It was OK at first but it started to get annoying because all I could hear constantly was the constant chatter of those using the lift to get to their compartments.
Can't I have just some peace and quiet for once?
I was hoping that I could have chance to get up by myself but the Capitol's escort, Esmeralda, bursts into my room.
"Oh goody, you're awake. Hopefully, you should know what today is." She says as she moves the sliding doors and opens the curtains.
"Day of the Chariot Parade." I say after yawning loudly.
The thing they call 'parade' where they get all of us into silly costumes, instead of actually sending us into the Games first thing.
"That's right. If you get a wash, have some breakfast and get changed, you might be able to get an early dress fitting."
2 hours later... after the wash, the breakfast and the change into some actual decent clothes.
"Esmeralda, how come Anne gets to have her outfit fitting done first?" Tavros asks Esmeralda.
"Because I'm special." I hissed. He rolled his eyes before walking back into the compartment. I continue walking with Esmeralda to the elevator.
"Here's what's going to happen. You meet your stylist, you put your outfit, give feedback to your stylist and then go back to your compartment. Then later, when it's time for the actual parade itself, you will be fitted into your dress and...
I translated it into 'blah blah blah'.
Going up the elevator, I could see the different compartments. All of the compartments were decorated to fit in with the industry of the district that the tributes come from. District 1's compartment was decorated with luxurious and elegant items where as the District 7 compartment was packed with wooden items.
When we finally arrive at the prep room, I meet up with my stylist.
"Hello, my name is Rehay. I'll be your stylist for the Games." I shake his hand and start to think about his name.
Unfortunately named, like most of Panem.
"I already have some ideas for your chariot parade outfit." He leads me into a small room. The large, brown sofa and the TV is what I see first.
Then, all of my attention focuses on a mannequin. On the mannequin was a dress that astonished me at first sight.
It wasn't hideous like most outfits. It was beautiful. It was...one of a kind.
"So, do you like it?" Rehay asks.
I don't like it, I love it.
Shock Huxley Eleator, District 3 Male
This morning was so hectic. Me and Ember had to get our outfit fittings done. I met my stylist, Andella and listened to her as she explained how she was a new stylist and this was her first year on the job. Even though she did talk for an awfully long time, I still managed to listen as it would have been rude not to.
My opinion on the parade outfit? It is nice but honestly, it's a bit too 'over the top'.
Now, I'm in my district's compartment. Ember is nowhere to be found. I assume that she must be getting ready for the parade first but I have an urge to ask my mentor, Jacquita, where she is.
"Where's Ember?" I ask.
"She's in the prep room. Girls have to get ready first this year." Jacquita replies, not even bothering to look at me and instead, payed attention to the newspaper.
"So what's the plan for the parade?" My eagerness starts to get the better of me.
"Well, you get into your outfit and then we will escort you into the chariot room. You meet up with Ember, hop onto the chariot and that's when the parade begins." Jacquita replies, finally putting the newspaper down onto the table and looks at me.
"Do I have to wait for Ember to get ready, be escorted to the chariot room and get on the chariot before I can get ready?" I ask.
Too many counterquestions.
"Please stop with the counterquestions, kid. And yes, it's girls first then boys." She replies. I felt foolish for annoying her so I stop speaking. Jacquita walks into the kitchen, giving me time to pick up the newspaper nearby.
I scroll through the newspaper, looking for interesting articles until...
"This year, the fashion experts of the Capitol will rate each tribute's parade outfit. The ratings range from 1, which represents fashion disaster of the century to 100, which represents the best outfit ever seen in the history of the Chariot Parades. Find out in our next published edition tomorrow to see which tribute got the highest rating, who got the lowest rating and which outfit was rated as the most memorable."
Oh no. What if my outfit gets a low rating?
Clementine Everett, District 10 Female
I'm currently in the chariot room with every girl from each district. Because of a new tradition that was put in place, girls had to get ready before boys. Most of the boys were either still getting ready or were now making their way here.
Meanwhile, I look around me and see all of the girls. The girls from 2 and 1 looked like they were having an argument, the girl from 4 was adjusting her outfit and the rest of the girls were just wandering around. The horses were really fidgety and sadly, there was no sugar cubes to feed them.
I know how they feel. It isn't really fair on President Maysall to let the boys have more time to get ready. They're holding us up.
Another thing I noticed was that there was no District 13 female.
Could that be a twist in the Games?
Out of nowhere, two Peacekeepers march into the room and towards the gate that was in front of the chariots. Our only source of light was from the ceiling lights above us.
I wonder why the Peacekeepers are here.
After waiting for another half an hour, the first boy arrives. He walks over towards the District 5 chariot.
Then all of them start to burst in. Clint, my district partner, eventually arrives and walks over towards our chariot.
"Sorry about that. Some of the boys took forever to get ready." Clint says.
"It's ok." I say shyly.
"Are you OK?" He asks, showing concern for me.
"I'm fine. I'm just feeling really nervous." I say.
Shy and nervous.
"Me too. Usually, I'm a confident person but now, all I can feel is nerve. It's probably due to the fact that our outfits will be rated." He says.
"Who by?" I ask.
"Two people from the Capitol. I've also heard that it will affect how well you do in the Games." He replies.
Damn. In these outfits, we're sure we're going to get criticized.
Tails Power, District 13 Male
I never wanted to end up in this position but I have. I am already making my way into the chariot room.
For some reason, I don't have a district partner. None of the females in my district went to the reaping. I think the soldiers and commanders told them to not go.
My stylist and escort walk with me. My mentor was very ill so she had to stay behind in the compartment.
Looking up, I could see a glimpse of the different compartments. I couldn't see my district's compartment because it was right at the top.
I returned to look ahead of me. I could hear the cheers and shouts of the Capitol citizens outside.
After walking past two rooms...
We were finally here. At the Chariot room. Many people were looking at me as if to say "Where's your district partner?" but I ignored them and got on my chariot. The chariot and the coat of the horses were both grey.
"You gonna be OK?" My escort asks me. I nod. The Peacekeepers at the gate retrieved two spanners and unlifted the gate. Unveiled was a world of colour and chanting (really it was just the Capitol citizens in extravagant and ridiculously stupid clothing).
"Capitol first!" One of the Peacekeepers shout. The Capitol's chariot was at the front, like always. It was furnished beautifully.
In less than 10 seconds, we were on our way.

Sabrina Prescott's POV
Favourite of the Capitol, huh? If I win this thing, it's certain that President Maysall will force me into doing something I don't want to do. That's the reality of the Capitol's favourites.
Flicking my raven black hair away from my face and adjusting this stupid red dress that the President called 'sexy', I walk into the library of the President's mansion. For some reason, I wasn't at the chariot parade. I was told not to go.
Just as I thought there was nobody else in the hallway I was locked in...
"Oh my. Haven't you changed from the last Games?"
It was the voice of Lucentio, one of the Gamemakers who resurrected me.
"I spent a year dead. What do you expect?".
My uncertainty still remained.
"Why did the President resurrect me? Why couldn't he have left me alone?".
"Think about it. You have a sadistic mind. He's going to use you to spice up the Games. And if you win, he'll force you into 'you-know-what' because you're a pretty face."
I actually know what he's trying to say.
"Is there any way I can get out of it?" I ask.
"You can either kill yourself once you're in the arena or you can give him what he wants." He replies.
Damn it.
"I'll have to give him what he wants." I say.
I'm not happy about it but I'm going to have to do it if I want to survive.
Tomma's Tigre POV
The Chariot Parade went on for ages. Probably the only thing I liked about the parade was the chariots. Each chariot was designed to relate to the passenger's district.
And for the first time ever, children from the Capitol acted as flagbearers. They walked in front of the chariots, carrying a flag with each district seal on. Let's not forget the ridiculous costumes they were dressed up in.
Typical Capitol culture.
After 11 districts, chariots and flagbearers, I finally saw District 12. Willie and Charlie were dressed in golden mining outfits and little crowns that were meant to look cute. Cladella was acting crazy beside me.
I know how you feel kids. I was in that chariot a year ago.
Then the traditions took place. The chariots did the loop-de-loop outside the President's mansion, everyone got into place, the Capitol citizens cheered on everyone like always and the President did his absolutely boring speech.
He tells them that if they put on a 'good show', everything will be OK. Yet that was the same statement used in my Games. It's just pure trickery on innocent children.
Once the Chariots were back in the prep room, I made my way down the long stairs and went to meet them. They looked pretty annoyed and angry.
"I can't believe they made us wear those hideous outfits!" Willie shouted, throwing his crown on the floor. Everyone started staring at us. Most of the stylists looked in horror.
"It's basically making fun of our district! They think they can glamorize mining in a satirical way when the reality is that men die every day in the mines due to accidents!" yelled Charlie. Cladella looked disgusted at them. The tributes watched from their chariots. To make things worse, their stylist, Aidan, walked in and saw the whole thing.
"Did...you...just...call...my...outfits...hideous?" He asks. He looks like he's about to cry.
"In fact, we did. We hated them. Not only did you mock us, you mocked our district. I hate these Games." Charlie shouts at him.
"YOU HORRIBLE CHILDREN!" Cladella now joins in with the shouting. "Back to the compartment, NOW! Come on Tomma!".
Everyone looks on as we head back to the compartment. Cladella was furiated, Charlie and Willie were angry and Aidan was devastated.
Me? I was actually impressed. I'm not angry at you, Charlie and Willie.

This blog will be updated every possible day, at least once, about fat acceptance topics and sometimes anti-hate rants. These don't always fit in my facebook notes, so I'll just link them here. :)
As an introduction, thought I'd share 10 facts about me.
1. I have stopped using my body weight as an excuse in my life. That means...
now I'm going to start longboarding.
when I can, surfing.
hello, bellybutton ring.
hey, no excuses.
any other type of exercise or fun thing I've been holding myself back from because I'm 'too fat.'
2. I don't agree with the line of thinking that flattering and fashionable clothing for fat people means thinning clothes, because that just means trying to look thinner.
3. I don't agree with weight prejiduce -
if you're fat, that means you don't exercise.
that also means you don't have good hygeine.
you overeat, probably compulsively, probably because of something in your childhood.
you are sedentary
you only eat junkfood
you can't have Anorexia or Bulimia (technically you can't- that's liable to be changed soon.)
your heart health is bad.
you are ugly
you are disgusting
you aren't sexy
you are lazy
you don't have good work ethic.
4. I am more convinced, now more than ever, that humans are like sheep, after watching the dieting industries affect on me, and people I know.
A successfull weight loss from a diet (including Weight Watchers) after 5 years is practically a freak occurance at 1 or 2 percent. 90 percent gain that weight back in the first year (for people who lose 75 pounds or more.)
5. I am somewhat coming to peace with not being thin.
I still don't like it, of course, but I've learned I only get this one body, and this one life, and I don't want to spend it hating it anymore.
6. If you are overweight or obese but exercise 3x a week and eat healthy foods, your heart is technically healthier than someone who is thin and sedentary.
7. I no longer spend money at clothing stores who seem to believe that people size 14 and up don't desire good fashion.
8. To be honest, it's not even worth looking anymore.
9. I've recently learned fat prejiduce is real, and it's the only one people justify by saying it is deserved because of poor health and moral practices.
10. I eat a lot sometimes, and very little sometimes.

I would've never made it out of there alive !!! (p.100,June 1, current events) "Stanley's" silver cup will now have a home in Boston with the "Bruins". I used to be in the Bobby Orr fan club. Thank you Boston Bruins, 3 game seven's you won, sounds like Blackjack to me, congratulations on a dream come true.
Don't mean to stir the pot or anything but the scene in downtown last night was disturbing to say the least. I never understood why you would want to destroy your own city.

Hey CanHeads,
Remembering that you only live once, or at least for all I know, I just spent some $$ on some great seats, for my son and I, for the Furthur show at Constellation Brands Performing Arts Center in Canandaigua NY on July 26.
We would love to meet up with fellow CanHeads while down there for some Jamming before show or at Letchworth State Park before or after show. Mind you the state Park is nowhere near the show (about 1hr20min away), but it looks way too amazing to miss, so we are going to explore it for a few days around the show. I may even have my wife and daughter with us for the camping portions this year, if it all works out.
Anyway my son and I had so much fun last year with the crew that showed up during the show, around the show, and around the campground before and after the show that I send this e-mail out in hopes some of you may be heading or end up heading down there for the show. I would love to get in some more jams......last years adventure was such a high point for me....the jamming was the best, especially the amazing jams outside the show before the concert and the massive jam at the campgroud under the shelter during the downpour...unforgetable/priceless....."Ra-a-a-ainnnn I don't mind..........Shi-i-i-ine the weathers fine.........". So perfect.........
Either way, may more amazing times come your way this summer.......

Oh yah remember July 8, 2010.... Big River, Crazy Fingers, Dark Star, They Love Each Other, Dear Prudence....and so many more....it was a great show....been re-listening to it lately.....
Maybe we will be treated to a Terrapin this year :) ....who knows.......
Might want to check this one out:
Hey Playin'... glad you liked the Gary Wright cover. =)
Dub Trinity will be playing our CD release gig on Saturday, May 28, at the Red Dog Tavern in Peterborough. Come out and dance to some reggae... all are welcome. http://www.dubtrinity.com/
Also, who will be joining me for the Caution Jam annual boat cruise? It's Saturday, June 4th in Penetanguishine. A nice way to spend the evening on the water. Hope you all can make it!
My heart is on Fire
I float like a wheel that is turning
My love is alive
My love is alive
.....giving me the goose bumps........awesome!
I'd love to go but I'll be hosting our own festival in the park on the 23rd with our reggae band, Dub Trinity and many others (in Peterborough).
I did see that jam scene veteran Karl Denson will be playing with his Tiny Universe at Hillside this year. Pure funk, so don't miss their show if you're going. They're also playing at Ottawa Bluesfest. I heard them on JamCruise and would love to hear them again anytime.
Hey Deadinnewmarket,
Gathering of the vibes...excellent........sadly, don't think it's in the cards for me this year.
Further and the Rythem Devils too...nice!
going to go check out Futhur and rhythm devils at Gathering of vibes, should be a pretty dirty show. wass going to try and hit some other shows in the tour, but looks like vibes will be tight on cash as it is so i guess well see what happens.
Hey gang,
Well like the great white polar bear and the golden-minded web-footed worbler I have come out of hibernation. Greetings my fellow travellers.......
O.K., another festival worth considering is the Hillside Festival (at Guelph Lake just outside of Guelph). Great music, vibes, kid friendly, enviromentally progressive, and swimming (with suit or without). I took my kids 2 years in a row a couple of years back and wnt with a friend and his daughter - we had a blast.
Nice to here about these others - I will need to do some planning soon....
Anyway just heard that Further is touring again. I'm thinking about picking up a couple of lawn tickets for my son and I to go to the Canandaigua, NY show. The closest show (atleast from my reckoning, no GD referrence intended).
Is anyone else thinking about or planning to go. I would love to meet up again and pick up the jam where we left off last year at Artpark.

P.S. Happy 4:20!!!

This page contains information on the paladins in the game.
This is the easiest to find paladin. He is located in the lighthouse in Cape Dun. There are two orc guards but only the one on the left will initiate a dialogue. The easiest way to free the human is to go up the stairs on the left and squeeze your way in through holes on the roof. The orcs will order you to exit but if you are quick to talk to the prisoner, you can ask him to join you in liberating the town. It's advisable to get him to help you as by now a fight with the orcs is going to be be inevitable.
Lootable equipment:
- Paladin's sword
- Paladin's shield
- Miscellaneous items like bread and wild berries

To the Parents or Guardians of incoming 9th-grade students (out-of-district or private schools):
The World Language Department within the Pascack Valley Regional High School District has a self-nomination process for placement into either the Honors Program at Pascack Hills or Pascack Valley High Schools.
The honors program is designed for students who demonstrate a high level of ability in oral and written expression, and who are motivated to achieve an advanced level of proficiency. In the honors program, students will be expected to achieve a strong command of the target language, which includes accurate usage of grammatical structures and extensive application of vocabulary and idiomatic expressions.
Additionally, as with all other honors programs in the district, students admitted in the program are expected to "maintain a high level of academic interest and be self-motivated learners and generators of academic materials. "
In order to be considered for the Honors Spanish or Honors French Program at the high school:
Placement into the Honors Program will be based upon an evaluation of the student's writing, oral and reading comprehension abilities through an assessment developed by World Language teachers.

Elijah Dukes, the former Nationals outfielder who was released by the team in March, is in a Hillsborough County jail in Tampa, Fla., for allegedly failing to pay child support to two women, according to a Tampa Tribune report.
Dukes was arrested on Monday in contempt of court; according to the report, and bail has not been set.
He was nearly arrested for the same offense in January 2009, when he paid more than $40,000 in back child support minutes before a deadline to avoid jail time. The Tampa Tribune said the most recent arrest is unrelated to that case.
Dukes' troubled past has followed him throughout his baseball career, and though he mostly had a record of good behavior with the Nationals, the team cut him during spring training partially because general manager Mike Rizzo believed it would help clubhouse chemistry. Dukes was not signed by another major league team this season, and one Nationals source said Dukes was offered a spot on a Mexican League team, only to change his mind and skip the flight the team had arranged for him.
The talented outfielder also struggled to stay healthy in two seasons in Washington, playing only 188 games in two years. He hit 21 homers and drove in 102 runs in that time.

Paris (AFP) Oct 12, 2014
By 2024, more than half of summers in eastern China will be as hot as in 2013, when the region was hit by a record-busting heatwave and devastating drought, a study said Sunday.
Based on current global warming trends, the big heat will happen even if rising greenhouse gas emissions are braked over the next decade, it said.
The summer of 2013 was the hottest on record in eastern China -- a massive 1.1 degrees Celsius (two degrees Fahrenheit) above the long-term average.
On 31 days, the temperature reached or exceeded the heatwave benchmark of 35 degrees Celsius -- more than double the usual June-August tally.
Nine provinces, with half a billion inhabitants, were affected. Direct economic losses, in China's most populated and economically developed region, have been put at 59 billion renminbi ($9.6 billion).
Reporting in the journal Nature Climate Change, scientists in Beijing, Canada and the United States said the probability of a 2013-like summer in eastern China had increased by a factor of 60 since the early 1950s.
Adding to the risk is the region's rapid urbanisation, they said.
They pointed to an effect called the urban heat island, in which concrete buildings and tarmac roads store heat during the day but fail to shed it all at night, thus ratcheting up the daytime temperature bit by bit.
The team, led by Xuebin Zhang of Environment Canada in Toronto, extrapolated temperatures on the basis of the region's weather from 1955 to 2013 and on internationally-used simulations for global warming.
"By 2024, at least 50 percent of summers will be as hot as the 2013 summer," they wrote.
The estimate holds for the lowest greenhouse-gas emissions, which yields a warming scenario called RCP4.5, and for the highest emissions, called RCP8.5.
"The increase in summer heat would inevitably lead to more widespread, long-lasting and severe heatwaves in the region," the paper warned.
"(...) Combined with the region's rising population and wealth, (it) would produce higher risks for human health, agricultural systems and energy production and distribution systems if sufficient adaptation measures are not in place."

Colorado lawmakers approved a bill on Tuesday to legalize same-sex civil unions, and the state's Democratic governor, who has already indicated his support, was expected to sign the measure into law.
The Colorado House Democrats said the measure would provide benefits, protections and responsibilities to gay and lesbian couples similar to those granted heterosexual pairs.
The measure, which passed by a 39-26 vote in the state House of Representatives, had already been approved by the state Senate.
"This bill is about three simple things, it's about love, it's about family and it's about equality under the law," Colorado House Speaker Mark Ferrandino, an openly gay Democrat and a sponsor of the bill, told fellow lawmakers.
The measure, once it is signed into law, would make Colorado the 18th state to approve either civil unions or gay marriage, according to the Colorado House Democrats. On Monday, lawmakers in the House rejected a number of Republican-sponsored amendments to the bill.

Re-Interpreting Blackstone's Commentaries
Edited by: Wilfrid Prest
This collection explores the remarkable impact and continuing influence of William Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England, from the work's original publication in the 1760s down to the present. Contributions by legal and literary scholars, as well as by cultural and intellectual historians, trace the manner in which this truly seminal text has established its authority well beyond the author's native shores or his own limited lifespan. Following an editorial introduction, the first section - "Reading Blackstone" - discusses the Commentaries' aesthetic and literary qualities as factors contributing to the work's unique status in Anglo-American legal culture. The second section considers the nature and dimensions of Blackstone's impact in various non-English jurisdictions (Quebec, Louisiana, North Carolina, and Australasia). The book then examines aspects of Blackstone's constitutional and political ideas. Finally, it provides a personal account of "Reading Blackstone in the Twenty-First Century and the Twenty-First Century through Blackstone." The book is a sequel to the well-received collection Blackstone and His Commentaries: Biography, Law, History. [Subject: Legal History]

Antitumor effect of electrochemical therapy on transplantable mouse cancers.

Med Sci Monit 2000; 6(3): BR498-502
The aim of our study was to assess the antitumor effect of electrochemicaltherapy (ECT) in the mice bearing advanced transplantable tumours. Mouse mammary cancer 16/C (group 1)and fibrosarcoma F69-3 (group 2) were transplanted subcutaneously (s.c.) into the C3H or BALB/c mice,respectively. Twenty animals in each group bearing measurable s.c. tumours were randomly divided intotwo subgroups (experimental and control). Two electrodes were inserted into tumours and low level directcurrent (6-7 V, 5-21 mA) was passed. The animals were observed and tumors were measured twice a week.The animals were sacrificed and autopsied when the tumor diameter reached 2.0 cm. Two animals of eachgroup (experimental and control) were sacrificed for histopathological tumor examination on the 1st and6th day after ECT. A significant inhibition of tumor growth in mice subjected to ECT was observed, bothin those with s.c. growing mammary cancer and with fibrosarcoma. This inhibition was associated withmarked prolongation of survival time of ECT-treated mice. It appeared that the mice with mammary cancerswere more susceptible to ECT therapy than those with growing s.c. fibrosarcoma. The histopathologicalstudies of tumor specimens from ECT-treated mice showed extensive foci of necrosis with shrinkage ofcell nuclei deprived of chromatin. In conclusion, the treatment which inhibits the growth of experimentalmammary and fibrosarcoma tumors was demonstrated. However, in no mice complete regression of tumourswas observed.

To Glory We Steer (The Bolitho Novels) (Volume 5)
Portsmouth, 1782. His Britannic Majesty's frigate, Phalarope, is ordered to assist the hard-pressed squadrons in the Caribbean. Aboard is her new commander-Richard Bolitho. To all appearances the Phalarope is everything a young captain could wish for, but beneath the surface she is a deeply unhappy ship-her wardroom torn by petty greed and ambition, her deckhands suspected of cowardice under fire and driven to near-mutiny by senseless ill-treatment.

The Hyperboreads
Those things are f****n frozen giants. Good thing all that ice really cooled their tempers. Otherwise, you my friend, would be in for a serious amount of frostbite. - BlizzardOfOz123
The Hyperboreads are a race of Brute Splicers who have taken a fondness to the Frozen Body and Freezing Weapons line of Gene Tonics. As a result their tempers have been cooled down to the point where they are wary of, but not openly hostile to Daedalus. They are very ferverent and efficient farmers of the various bioluminescent plantlife and mushrooms that grow in the Underdeep. They are almost like friendly vikings. They like to drink alot, eat a lot, and party alot. They still fight, but only for sport. They like to wrestle, and frequently hold matches of bare knuckle brawling. They are very wary and suspicious about Daedalus, and have many superstitions. Your peace with them is very tenuous as doing one thing wrong (In thier eyes) in ones presence will cause the wrath of these guys to fall down upon you. Things like going to near their crops or women, having a gun out, or using any type of swarm of fire based plasmid will get you screwed. Good luck they are so stupid though, because hiding for a couple of minutes will cause them to forget what they were chasing. They worship a mysterious deity they call " Skjortnir" (Ska-jort-neer). All that anybody can figure out is that it is some giant, white dragon that will one day swallow the sun, plunging the earth into eternal winter.
Physical Appearance
These guys look almost nothing like normal Brutes. Their skin is pale blue, and their eyes are a blue like glacier ice. Their hands are coated in ice to the point where it looks like their hands are made of ice. They wear loinclothes, and fur capes made from the pelts of intruders and goats. Their hair is snow white. They have bad teeth and bulging muscles, and are larger than regular brutes
Hyperboreads as Enemys
Hyper boreads are Brutes with ice powers. Their blows have a chance to freeze you, after which you must waggle the controler stick or press a button to get free. They will sheild themselves with thier icy fists, which can soak up quite a large percentage of damage. The boulders that they throw are frozen, and will explode in a frozen hail of icy shards. Using winter blast on them, while completely stupid on your part, will heal them and coat their chests and legs in an impenatrable armor of ice. This slows them down, but also causes their only weakspots to be their heads and backs! Fire severly damages them, and will melt the armor, plus making them more suceptible to future attacks. They are slower than normal brutes, and cannot charge, but have roughly 1.5 X the health. All in all, try to avoid alienating these dudes at all costs.
Hyperboreads that have been banished and have gone crazy. Will attack any other living thing on sight. Killing thes guys do not invoke the wrath of friendly Hyperboreads.
Clan Leaders:
A bigger, uglier, and meaner boss version of a Hyperboread. They have a new attack that makes a giant shard of ice erupt under your feet and uppercut you, dealing damage and knocking you down. They are initially friendly to you.
Ice Wolves
Faster variants that can charge you.
Well that's about it for the Hyperboreads. Does anyone think they are cool, or do they need a permanant defrosting. Please tell me. Also, can anyone guess what the next secret Plasmid is?
