JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Synthetic marijuana is illegal in Florida, but that's not stopping it from popping up in local stores.
Clay County deputies have seized the drugs from three stores just this year.
An Orange Park psychiatrist is now speaking out about the potential effects of synthetic marijuana and the surprising number of teens he's treating.
Dr. Marcus De Carvalho said about 15 percent of the patients he sees a week have used synthetic marijuana, and most of them are teens. The results of using the drug, he said, can be severe.
"Hallucinations that can be command-like, meaning telling you to kill yourself, kill other people," De Carvalho said. "So it's very serious."
As a result, he decided to write a blog and a letter to other doctors and people in the community to let them know what's going on.
"I just started to become really concerned with the majority of the patients I was seeing in my private office," De Carvalho said. "They'll come in with complaints of psychosis, antidote, hallucinations, paranoia, even visual hallucinations."
Synthetic marijuana is made of natural herbs, then sprayed with synthetic chemicals that mimic the effects of marijuana when consumed.
De Carvalho says he always asks patients if they use marijuana. In one teen, like many others, this was the response.
"Clearly, she was like, 'No, no, no, I've never tried it, but I have tried some of the over-the-counter light marijuanas that are really light that really don't have that effect, and that really scared me,'" De Carvalho said.
He said that's the issue: Teens believe synthetic marijuana is safe. But De Carvalho said it can be more dangerous than marijuana itself.
"That over-the-counter marijuana, that K2 spice or mojo or bath salts actually bind the receptors in the brain that marijuana binds 100 times tighter," De Carvalho said.
He said that can actually change the shape of the brain and leave long-lasting psychological effects. De Decavallo said that's why it's important for parents to be on the lookout for the drugs.
"You raise your child and you want your child to function in a society normal as a good citizen, as a good adult," he said. "When they use these drugs, I mean, it kills their chance."
De Carvalho offers this advice to parents: Get educated, talk to other parents, be open and take it as it goes, don't be surprised, be flexible, do whatever possible to make it stop.
How do you treat people after they use Synthetic Marijuana
Those who use synthetic marijuana should be treated like anyone who has been diagnosed with a psychotic illness, De Carvalho said. He said that means medication, but right now there is no specific medication for people who have used the drug.

Review By Samannita,
Hey Beauties,
There is a common proverb that "when in doubt wear red" and I understand this line after ending my 1.5 year of blogging and after spending my money on pinks and browns and corals near about 50 lipsticks I finally brought my first red lipstick and it is none other than "the show stopper of all mac lipsticks", "the hottest selling shade "RUBY WOO". Yes finally…
About The Product:
|MAC Retro Matte Lipstick Ruby Woo Review, Swatches and LOTD
Price: - Rs.990/- for 3g.
Available at MAC stores
Product Description:
MAC lipstick claims to be:-
Color plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made M•A•C famous.
To see the ingredients please look at the picture.
My Experience with MAC Retro Matte Lipstick Ruby Woo:
Although it is the hottest selling shade or the show stopper but it comes in a usual packaging. It comes in a black bullet with the very own vanilla smell. And this Ruby woo falls under the collection of "retro matte collection of Mac."
My Take:
Mac retro matte collection lipsticks are super matte and so are the ruby woo. It is super matte so one has to be very careful with this lipstick as it might end up looking flaky on lips. So exfoliation and moistening of lipstick before applying the lipstick is suggested. But I am a matte lover so I think Ruby woo is just perfect for my choice. The shade is "blue base red" so I think this kind of shade will look good on any skin tone, only one should have the confidence to carry it.
My LOTDs:
|MAC Retro Matte Lipstick Ruby Woo Review, Swatches and LOTD
Now coming to the pros and cons
Pros of MAC Retro Matte Lipstick Ruby Woo:
• Have variety of shades.
• Perfect for winter.
• Matte finish.
• Excellent coverage of pigmented lips.
• Pigmented.
• Stays near about 7 hours without fading.
• Doesn't transfer.
• Leaves a nice red tint after fading.
Cons of MAC Retro Matte Lipstick Ruby Woo:
• The formula is super matte which lead to super drying of lips followed by accentuates fine lines of lips.
• The lipstick tends to tug your lips while applying.
• Availability might be a problem as it is the hottest selling shade; in fact I have to pre-book this lipstick in our Kolkata mac store before to get it.
My ratings:- 3/5 due to all cons.
My final verdict:-
If you never wear red or want to play safe with red then try this hot shade , I bet it is the most versatile shade that will suit everyone from fair to dusky, but like I said before all you have to need "the confidence to wear it".

Chapter 621 translation
Hi Seelentau, I want to ask about the third missing kanji of Hashirama's Hotei no Jutsu, have you found it? And about Hōbi no Jutsu, is it better to move the page to its literal name? or that's better? —Shakhmoot (Talk) 21:31, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
- Omni-san just added a third kanji for "Hotei", but I don't know if it's right or not. I checked a bad quality scanned panel for this jutsu. So it was unclear for me. And about the naming, let's wait for Viz translation of these technqiues to see what are the appropriate translations for that. —Shakhmoot (Talk) 22:07, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Unconfirmed Kanji
Sorry, but I added the kanji form the chapter scripts on this webpage. —Shakhmoot (Talk) 16:53, February 27, 2013 (UTC)
Veil of Cat Fire

Hey Seelentau, ich find's zwar mittlerweile schon komisch sich hier auf deutsch zu unterhalten, aber was soll's! Ich arbeite als admin momentan auf einem anderen wiki aktiv mit und wir stehen gerade vor einem kleinen Problem. Viele Familiennamen werden ja in Japan mit Kanji geschrieben und jedes Kanji kann dabei unterschiedlich ausgelegt werden. Betrifft das auch die Vornamen? Die Namen in Hiragana zu schreiben wäre falsch, nicht wahr?
Daher frage ich dich, da du anscheinend auf diesem wiki mit am meisten japanisch verstehst (Hut ab dafür). Weißt du irgendeine Seite im internet, mit der man die Namen ermitteln könnte? Oder eine andere Methode? Wenn nicht, isses nicht schlimm, aber es würde auf jedenfall ungemein helfen! ;)
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Norleon (talk) 11:10, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
- Nun, wie die Kanji aussehen, weiß ich und auch, wie sie auf Romanji (heißt das so?) geschrieben werden. Ich wusste nur nicht, wie und worüber man Kanji erstellen kann. Die Seite, die du mir gegeben hast, sollte mir aber weiterhelfen können. Vielen Dank! ;)Norleon (talk) 15:06, March 2, 2013 (UTC)
Sage Mode Thoughts?
What's your opinion on the whole Sage Mode issue on its talk page? Do you think there are distinct types of it or something else (like me)? There's no general agreement, so we can't restructure the article until there is one. You know of anything in the manga to (somewhat) clear this up? Skitts (talk) 01:05, March 1, 2013 (UTC)

Madara's brothers
What exactly does he say? I still can't get over the fact both scanlations got the number of brothers wrong. Is there any way what Madara said can be interpreted as "we're five brothers" instead of "I have five brothers"? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:49, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Only chapters
That's how it's done since before I came around. I presume it's because if you go to the chapter, there's a number and link to the volume. Volumes also list new characters. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:30, March 10, 2013 (UTC)
Kamui's dimension
In chapter 597, page 6 if I'm not mistaken. Kakashi says something like "Ore no Kamui no Jikūkan (something else)". The way he says it, can "Kamui no Jikūkan" be considered a name for the dimension Kamui sends stuff to? There's a discussion in the page's talk about a rename.

Sound Four Technique
What is the exact translation? We currently have it as "Sound Four: Summoning Technique: Four Corner Beast Formation". Kanji and romaji seem to be correct going by Japanese Wikipedia (though they dropped the group's name from the technique's name). 音隠れ四人衆・口寄せ・四獣包囲の陣, Otogakure Yoninshū: Kuchiyose: Shijū Hōi no Jin. First two parts are easy, "Sound Four: Summoning: Four Beasts ??? Formation", but the other part has more translation options. Also, should the Four Beasts part be translated as that? It has two possible meanings, and both apply: Four different summons ("beasts"), and the Sound Four's standing in each direction being a reference to 四神. Maybe even 四神獣? And I have no idea what would be the best translation for 包囲. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:33, March 14, 2013 (UTC)

ancient Kirin topic
Just bored, so wanted to explain it to you. In order to "catch" the natural lightning, Sasuke has to use lightning natured chakra, it wouldn't work with ordinary chakra because there's no way it could reach that high, he just links the natural lightning in the sky with a super-weak chidori in hand like a magnet of sorts, shapes it using shape transformation alone and then brings it down using the link. So all in all, chidori/lightning release is needed to tame it, tho the monster itself isn't created with lightning chakra, that's why it isn't called Lightning Release: Kirin and yet it is one 0_o more examples of the same things are: Fire Release: Mist Blaze Dance Technique and Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning mist blaze uses natural fire to ignite fire release chakra natured gas and with Asuma's technique, the gun-powder is also coated in fire release chakra and then ignited by natural means. Again, I was just bored so it's for nothing, sorry for spamming ur talkpage :)--Elveonora (talk) 11:23, April 19, 2013 (UTC)
UNS3 ultimates
So, kanji for some of the ultimates from the game started to appear. I would have waited around a bit longer to add and ask for translations, but some other users already started adding them, so I checked to see if they matched the ones where I could find them. The ones with kanji for now are:
- Cat Fire Bowl. The very literal translation made this an easy one, but I'd like to put some trivia around the actual cat brazier in it, but I have no idea if it has a mythological or cultural significance to point out.
- Five-Mountain Jump. There was a wrong kanji in it, but I corrected it, and the translation is the same as far as I know, so no need to change anything I think.
- Freight Bubbles. I added the kanji for that one, because someone else had added the wrong ones, but I don't know if the game name is an accurate translation of the Japanese.
- Lightning Straight. I did my best to add the literal translation of the several kanji in it.
- Rough Sea Splash. I moved it from "Rough Sea Spume" when someone added the kanji.
- Scale Powder Blasting. We've had the kanji for that from day one basically, since they were readable in one of the earliest videos of the game.
- Scorching River Great Eruption. Another one I moved from the game name when someone added the wrong kanji. I put the kanji I found in more than one source.
- Sickle Mist Technique. The "Ninja Art" part was dropped, like in many articles. The only thing I'm not sure if it's "-kiri" or "-giri".
- Storm Release: Black Hunting. I added the kanji, put what I believe to be the proper pronunciation of the kanji in the trivia, and added literal English, which could use a more proper look.
- Sword of Kagutsuchi. Kanji were added when videos with good enough audio became available, they're correct.
- Tengai Shinsei. Actual kanji are finally available, and I think this will end up being left untranslated, kinda in keeping with some other Rinnegan techniques, particularly Deva Path ones, which this also seems to be.
- Mifune's ultimate is the only new ultimate we still don't have an article for, because we didn't even have the game name for it. The game name for it is "Resident Decapitation", and the only source I have on the Japanese says his ultimate is called 居斬 (いきる, Ikiru). I'm certain that in this technique or in at least one of the above there's a pun or word-play I did not find or recognise.
I'm still going through sites and lists, and I was able to gather a significant portion of the techniques used in the Ultimate Ninja series, though the thread I made about it in the forums is not up to date with what I have, I'm trying to translate as much as I can before asking for help. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:58, April 28, 2013 (UTC)
- Like I said, I'm trying to get as many game jutsu kanji done by myself before asking for you to take a look at it, because when I do ask for it, it'll be a lot. I have a 50 page long file where I'm listing everything I can. Most of it is already in a thread I made in the forums, spanning from UN1 through UN5, and UNS, but it's still missing UNI/S2/SG/S3 techniques in the thread. Most of UNS2/G is coming from the site I got UNS3 info, since most characters' movesets didn't change, only bummer is that they all lost a combo in UNS3, so there's usually one technique being left out, but that site still hasn't published all the movesets. I'm also trying to find Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 stuff, since that in the Japanese games, that is sort of what would UN6 would have been (UN4, 5 and that are from the same series subset), but so far all I managed are youtube videos, which are harder to get kanji out of. Something I discovered since making the topic, is that kamakiri, written with the same kama kanji, but using a different kanji for the kiri part, is the word for a praying mantis. I'm sort of wondering in the pun is deliberate, and an indication that the romaji would actually be kamakiri instead of kamagiri. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:54, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Hi Seelentau, wondering why you removed my edit on Kotoamatsukami regarding the decade limitation between uses?... Do you not agree with what I wrote? Thanks. --UchihaFan (talk) 17:44, April 29, 2013 (UTC)
I agree with you that what I wrote can't be proven literally from manga facts.
Consequently, the following statement from Shisui's page "This genjutsu however, could only be used once a decade, unless the user had a way to augment the process such as with Hashirama Senju's cells, thereby drastically reducing the time required from ten years to only a few hours." would also be circumstantial conjecture at best and not pure manga facts.
There are only two references to the use of Kotoamatsukami by Shisui :
1- Ao fought Shisui and has full knowledge of the ability of his Mangekyō Sharingan.
2- Shisui tried using Kotoamatsukami to prevent the coup d'etat.
At the time of his death, Shisui was about the same age as Itachi : around 17 years old... If you assume he did not awake his Mangekyō Sharingan before the age of 7 AND that he can only use Kotoamatsukami twice every decade (once for each eye) then you must conclude that the fight with Ao and the coup d'etat are the only two times Shisui used Kotoamatsukami!
Furthermore, we know the use of Sharigan by non-Uchiha such as Kakashi is very taxing on chakra, thus it is more than reasonable to assume that the use of Mangekyō Sharingan by a crow would be even more so, to the point that it would take a decade for it to "recharge".
What are your thoughts on this?...By the way, if I'm bothering you with my questions, don't worry about it, just tell me to shut up! ;-) Thanks --UchihaFan (talk) 18:37, April 29, 2013 (UTC)
re:Obito age
Thank you for support ^_ dunno why do people have issues with that. Although, I would like you to check Kakashi's and then Rin and Obito's ninja registration numbers. Is it obviously a retcon, since as of the number, Kakashi was originally to graduate before them, not along with them--Elveonora (talk) 21:11, May 9, 2013 (UTC)
Yes, I obviously know that since I'm saying the same. But Kakashi's ninja registration number is uneven to those of Obito and Kakashi, suggesting difference of years between his participation in the academy and theirs. At least that's how I understand those numbers, Kakashi's is 009720 while Obito and Rin's are 010886 and 010885, suggesting the other two were in the same bunch of graduates--Elveonora (talk) 21:31, May 9, 2013 (UTC)
Do you understand how the Itachiwashero guy counts? I'm not getting his schematics, I don't want to offend and state him to be wrong, even though I'm more or less certain that Obito is around 34 now. Either I'm too dumb or he isn't explaining it properly.--Elveonora (talk) 10:47, May 10, 2013 (UTC)
Master Chen
From the Old Man and the Dragon's Eye, during the episode, he's also called "Master Chen". What does: Provide an official name translate into exactly? Lord Tangorin gave me some translations, but they don't quite fit Chen. They only fit if I sort of translate them separately, which would result into something like "Old Master".

Sakumo killing Sasori's parents matter
I know there isn't any specific reference for this, but the war had begun before Nagato turned 10 (since then was after when Jiraiya began teaching him and noted him to have mastered all basic nature transformation and shit at that age) and Nagato's age during his death is around 42, unless I'm mistaken. Sasori's parents died before he turned 5 since that's when grandma with wooden hand started to teach him puppetry, so let's say 4. 35 (his age) - 4 = 31. 42 (Nagato's age) - 31 years of difference = 11 and as you may know, Second World War as still raged when Nagato was 11, so Sakumo indeed killed the parents during that war. I'm bringing this up because you have removed that from articles--Elveonora (talk) 19:18, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
If we assume the Ame Orphans were about the same age which is safe to I guess, Yahiko died as about 25 years old, SINCE Chouji described him as a man in between 25-30 years old by his appearance, the former being more likely. He died about 17 years before current events during the very end of 3rd Shinobi World War, well... 25+17=42, that's it. Since I doubt Nagato and Konan were older than that, that's their most probable age. Even if it's off by a little bit up or down, Sakumo still killed Sasori's parents during 2nd Shinobi World War for fuc*ing SURE, since it began some time before Nagato's parents died and lasted up to his maturity. Glad I could help--Elveonora (talk) 15:38, May 13, 2013 (UTC)
Depends, Sasori was 35 as we know. It's not that much of an assumption, let's say Yahiko was rather 30 than 25. 54 (Jiraiya's age) - 17 = 37, I doubt there was only 7 year difference between Ame Orphans and J-man when he began teaching them, that would have made him 17 when fighting Hanzo so improbable, Sannin were like in their early 20's so Nagato and Konan being 42 is a very close approximate rather than assumption. We don't know exactly when 2nd Shinobi World War started, but it was before Nagato turned 10 and lasted up to their maturity. And since there is 7 years of difference between Sasori and Nagato (circa) and the former's parents died before he turned 5, there was definitely a war when Nagato was 11.

Hey i would like to ask how can i create an archive?--ROOT 根 (talk) 16:08, May 15, 2013 (UTC)
My apologies
Hopefully you don't take a disagreement personally, you can think anything you want about me but you aren't an authority I must agree with, even though I respect you greatly for things you have done for this place and all. I just think in that case, you are seeing more to it than there is. We were told everyone has an affinity and that Uchihas had one for fire, nowhere it suggests the nature itself is hereditary, rather the talent for it is, because if what you are saying was true, then all Uzumakis would share a single chakra nature or any clan with heavy inbreeding for that matter. The reason why Uchihas do is because it's a tradition to use Katon and what's being passed down with the genes is talent, even a person unrelated to Uchiha may have fire affinity.--Elveonora (talk) 19:50, May 15, 2013 (UTC)
Re-reading some stuff more in-depth, you might be right actually. It would appear that some people's chakra "lean" towards a certain nature. The whole Kakuzu hearts thing hints as such--Elveonora (talk) 21:30, May 19, 2013 (UTC)

So you do in fact agree with some of my sentiments? But this is a wiki, shouldn't be about "who is right" but "what is correct" The only "evidence" they would likely accept is if Kishimoto himself has appeared sitting on their laps, whispering into their ears, while massaging their nipples, this reminds me the whole "is Orochimaru a Sage?" case and many religion-science related topic I have had in the past, I know it's unrelated to this show, but trying to convince fanatics in delusion is pretty much the same. Still, I'd like to hear at least your personal opinion on topics 1, 3 and 5. The author is limited in how much he can explain things and progress the plot at the same time, the manga chapters are getting shorter and shorter... (no idea why is that, but perhaps it's not selling enough?) Funny, since the topics were brought up because the manga ITSELF says otherwise to what we have listed here. First, it's clear Kishimoto obviously has a pretty clear distinction between DNA and cells. A foreign cell doesn't alter DNA of host cell, at least in most cases not, especially not blood cells, unless it's a parasitic virus. The only thing that blood juice did to Kabuto was the injected cells were trying to defeat Kabuto's immune system, procreate and replace his own cells, but his body WON and reverted the process. Kishimoto EVEN bothered to explain what happened to Kabuto and why he looked like that by drawing Jugo and having him clarify it was a result of Sage Transformation (Jugo's own mutative ability), commenting on Orochimaru's doing, that what he did was absorb the chakra that Kabuto had from Anko and undo his Senninka. So already two-three things are false on Narutopedia:
- we state he is a mutant, which is false
- that Orochimaru's DNA was responsible for his form, while he purposely took on that form
- for this, people get confused ans speculate that he lost these powers, which is false, Orochimaru didn't suck out his blood or anything.
The one about white-snake guy's sealing is an obvious one, I don't think I have to repeat myself for 50th time. And at last, Jubi's classification as a "tailed beast" is definitely incorrect, I'm 99% sure of that. Not only it's false, but we should update information as more is getting revealed, the latest pieces of information state it's a deity, so we should list it as such. Another thing, Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and Ten-Tails should have been merged long ago in my opinion. Sorry if it's too long :-/--Elveonora (talk) 12:36, May 25, 2013 (UTC)
The big one
Well, here it comes. The single, most massive translation check request you'll ever receive. Going through the sources linked and mentioned at forum topic, I have done my best to list pretty much every possible technique in the Ultimate Ninja series. There are still a few to come in, but that depends on the site I get kanji for UNS3 updating. At the moment, all the kanji I can copy and paste from somewhere else is listed and translated. The only specific aid I can still provide, other than answering particulars about some translations here and there, is to link specifically for the UNH3 moveset videos, since that one, I wasn't able to find actual moveset lists that I can copy and paste. Don't hesitate to bug me about it, you'll probably want once you see the size of list, if you haven't already. The list. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 01:31, May 25, 2013 (UTC)

What exactly did Zetsu say about Nagato's relation to the Senju in chapter 606, page 12 should it be? Thank you.--Elveonora (talk) 12:53, May 29, 2013 (UTC)
So the word "descent" is really there? I trust you more than some random forum guy, so I take it Uzumaki are indeed descendants of Senju?--Elveonora (talk) 13:09, May 29, 2013 (UTC)
But doesn't lineage go both ways, meaning Uzumaki could have been first? This is his response to your translation:
- There is no word there that says descend 降りる from Senju Lineage, it says of Senju Lineage/Blood Relations (Kettō), you will never find the descend or descendant Kanji on that text. The Viz Translation uses "of"
- We have here the Younger Son who clearly isn't known to have had red hair, in fact if we look at the anime depiction, the hair color is black and none of his shown Senju descendants did have red hair.
- Then suddenly there's a "descendant" clan (Uzumaki) of the Younger Son whose pure blooded members (Naruto is half) all have red hair? Impossible. Obviously the Uzumakis like ancient clans practice "inbreeding" that they have always had red hair.
Taking Biology into account, hair is one of the most consistent genes, and having the same color of hair in a clan who inbreeds is true. It doesn't make sense that a "descending" clan could develop such an unorthodox hair color if the original hair color was a different color. The interbreeding clan (Senju) would have to have red hair, or a strong dominant gene for it, but the Senjus don't, and red hair in itself is a recessive gene in humans.
Oh, also unrelated, but latest chapters again likely wrongly supports that Hashirama had lived long enough to see Tsunade develop super strength, so about her late childhood/early adolescence I would say... unless she was born like that. Databooks suggest one thing, manga SEVERAL others. Chapter cover 303 says that by Part II. it's been 50 years since his death, meaning he died when Tsunade was 4 .__.--Elveonora (talk) 15:56, May 29, 2013 (UTC)
Also isn't Hashirama's god gate no jutsu a barrier technique rather than sealing technique?--Elveonora (talk) 20:10, May 29, 2013 (UTC)

Hmm... it's present on all scanlation covers. Anyway, we can be "sure" Hashirama outlived Tobirama 0_o--Elveonora (talk) 14:03, May 30, 2013 (UTC)
Tailed Beasts were created in the Jubi's image and share its chakra, their souls were inserted by Rikudou Sennin. Black Zetsu was created in image of White Zetsu, shares his power and is Madara's will embodied. I strongly believe what Madara did back there was Creation of All Things--Elveonora (talk) 20:53, June 1, 2013 (UTC)
Yes. It's about concept, both cases were created from something (Tailed Beasts from Jubi's chakra, Black Zetsu from White Zetsu's body) and forms of both are embodiment of will/imagination - Yin and then blown life with - Yang. Well, White Zetsus are clones of Hashirama or rather even possibly clones of Hashirama's Living Clone but as you can see, the latter has no soul/consciousness. Zetsus look NOTHING like Hashirama despite having his DNA, meaning their form was Madara's invention "yin" and he made them alive unlike HLC with "yang" Uchiha Madara in the end, indeed is a lesser version of Sage of Six Paths, also stated by Kabuto.--Elveonora (talk) 21:59, June 1, 2013 (UTC)
No. Also Tailed Beasts weren't created from Jubi, just its chakra. Seemingly even after the process, some had left since Madara sucked it to stay alive. In both cases, something serves as a medium (chakra, body) Rikudou Sennin didn't have to completely (or almost completely) rid the Jubi of its chakra, it was in order to defeat it. Since only a fragment of each of the Tailed Beasts' chakra is/would be enough to revive it, so would have been a fragment enough to create them in the first place. White Zetsus were definitely created with Yin-Yang release too, not only Madara's statement suggests it, but also Swirl Zetsu serves as enough of a proof to me, his forms represents... lack of imagination :D He might have been the very first before Madara settled on the final "design"--Elveonora (talk) 22:46, June 1, 2013 (UTC)
For you it represents a different technique somehow, while to me it seems to be the same thing. The separation part isn't mandatory to the technique. As I said, So6p didn't have to make Jubi an invalid, he could have just used a little bit of its existing chakra rather than permanently removing it from its body and splitting it. But I strongly believe that a medium may be a necessity (not a requirement tho) for Creation of All Things, since there's only as much "imagination" can do. It's easier to do it according to a template/from something than to make nothing turn into existence. Both White and Black Zetsus were created using yin-yang release. Hash's cells as a medium => giving it form and other qualities/attributes with yin => giving it life with yang. For BZ, using already shaped Hash from WZ => turning it into will embodied thus slightly altering its mind and form with yin => giving it life with yang.
I know where you think is a difference though. Adam being made of soil/dirt while Eva from his rib? Now, what more reasoning do you still have for Madara not being BS user?--Elveonora (talk) 13:43, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
He did, he didn't take a part of WZ like his rib and made BZ from it, he created BZ only accordingly to WZ to fit him, notice that BZ is different, so there's body forming. He only glued them together, BZ didn't grow from WZ's body--Elveonora (talk) 16:10, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
I'm saying he didn't grow from his body, by "gluing" I meant that BZ grew in place where WZ has half his side missing. He isn't his alter-ego since they are both separate individuals, so the comparison doesn't work--Elveonora (talk) 16:21, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
You are right. But how does that change being yin-yang release? Even Madara says so. Cool, so WZ's leg was sacrificed to make BZ, they both are still separate entities though. Think of them as of conjoined twins--Elveonora (talk) 16:40, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
Whatever the case, he used YYR to create WZs, so still not creation of all things?--Elveonora (talk) 17:07, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
I don't think all YYR techniques work the same, creating stuff and **** therefore it must be the same technique Rikudou Sennin used. Izanagi is Yin-Yang Release too, yet it's not "creation" rather manipulation of tangible and intangible, switching them around. I believe either manga states it's it soon, or next databook will list him, but I think we should list him already now, there's not much harm, is there? EDIT: also I believe GoDai already has an explanation for the whole "shinobi alliance doton users" thingy--Elveonora (talk) 17:17, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Something interesting?
In mangastream's version of 632, they put in these two pages after the colour spread, seems to be a sort of recap about Naruto and Sasuke. In this Pierrot blog post, there seems to be something about Road to Ninja and the Prologue to Road to Ninja episode. Something interesting in either of these? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 05:51, May 30, 2013 (UTC)
should explain the alliance thing?
A nature can be used either as an energy with each having unique properties, or as a material. And according to Godai, using pre-existing source of material (which is more than likely true since it's suggested by usage of techniques) requires less of elemental chakra to manipulate and less skill too. For an example, using nearby water source to form a dragon is less taxing and difficult than what Tobirama did against Hiruzen in manga, creating it from chakra. So same goes for the Earth Wall. Everyone's chakra can be changed into either of the five natures. While it takes years of training to use nature besides one's own affinity, the chakra has since it must have hints of all 5, otherwise it should be possible to change it into anything, not just those main things. The "affinity leaning" must be something contained within cells of an individual which create the chakra rather than the chakra itself, supported by having an organ transplanted giving a nature to the recipient, while getting chakra restored with transfer technique or absorbing it from anyone, DOESN'T grant a new nature. It all supports my understanding ;-) but back to the point.
So while it may be difficult for someone with Wind affinity to use Fire, Hand Seals should help, since they make control and concentration easier. So in my opinion and I strongly believe it, anyone can create elemental chakra of any x from the 5 natures to a lesser extent. For example Naruto was told to imagine two forces grinding edges against each other which would thin and sharpen his chakra in order to create stronger and more of wind natured chakra. So perhaps Katon chakra is being created by thinking of sensation of heat? Water by concentrating about wet and imagining waves? Well in short, if the lesser extent is true and with the GoDai stuff, using pre-existing earth from ground made it much easier, while they wouldn't be able to use it like Hiruzen did, spitting it from mouth. As much and you dislike it and don't want to hear it, if true it says than anyone can do (as long as skilled enough) a basic let's say C or D rank Katon, Doton, Suiton, Raiton and Fuuton technique with hand seals and available material medium. Even though Naruto's affinity is Wind, he isn't skilled at Fuuton, since he can just create amount and maintain it long enough to combine it with shape transformation and form a Shuriken. But he is yet to be shown infusing/enhancing already existing air with wind chakra like Temari, and nowhere close to Danzo (which I would say was the most impressive user) blowing sharp air from mouth. So in short, Naruto is the same level Fuuton user as Shikamaru, Chouji and Ino are Doton, a low one. But he had to combine it with Rasengan and it was hard due to "looking left while also looking right" thingy and he has to use wind natured chakra as energy to do this, while the 3 had benefit of using existing material and doing only very basic form of shape transformation. Disagree?--Elveonora (talk) 18:19, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
That's not really how it works because your saying that by thinking of a certain scene or sensation you can use any element and it shouldn't be hard for naruto to do fire style the thing is that you have to do apply Nature Transformation to change your chakra to a specific type.Whiteraven1 (talk) 18:39, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

The writer Eduard Mörike had a soft spot for Stuttgart and waxed lyrical in 1853 in his book "Stuttgarter Hutzelmännlein" about beautiful old houses and their oriels, "which stand on corners serenely as towers". Despite bombing raids and extensive devastation during the Second World War Stuttgart is full of architectural gems. The "City between forests and vines", as it was once referred to in an advertising slogan, is in fact well worth seeing and exploring.
Stuttgart is the name the Swabians gave to the paradise on earth, as the humanist Ulrich von Hutten wrote in 1519. Perhaps it was because of the vineyards, the many parks and forests? Or perhaps it was due to the Mediterranean flair of the squares and city quarters? The trick is to disclose the secret and explore the "Swabian Paradise".

text: Health Information ACL Injury: The Scourge of Skiers by Rick AlanEn Español (Spanish Version)Symptoms | Treatment | PreventionAs Mother Nature blankets the mountains with the cold white stuff, hundreds of thousands of ski enthusiasts head out to the slopes. For most skiers, a day of fun on the slopes is followed by a relaxing evening by the fire or a night about town. Unfortunately, injury cuts the day short for some and ruins the evening and ski season entirely for others. One of the most common severe injuries is of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Ligaments are strong connective tissues that help connect bones at the joints. The ACL is one of 4 ligaments that provide stability at the knee joint. It extends from the back of the lower leg bone (tibia) to the front of the thigh bone (femur). ACL can be damaged in any physical activity but it is a common injury among skiers. Here are some of the actions associated with ACL damage: Trauma from force creating a twisting motion in the knee, such as catching an edgeSudden change in directionSudden stops and fallsImproper landing from jumpsDirect impact to the kneeNow you know more about how your knee can be injured. How do you know for sure if you have suffered a sprained or torn ACL? Symptoms Damage in the ACL can range from a minor tear (grade 1 sprain) to a full rupture (grade 3 sprain). Symptoms will vary by the grade of the sprain, but may include: PainPopping noise when injury occursSwelling in the knee within 24 hoursLoss of full range of motionInstability—a wobbly feeling that will make it difficult to stand or walkThese symptoms are usually good indicators of an ACL injury but doctors will examine your knee to see if there is instability. The doctor will usually x-ray the knee to rule out a fracture to the bone. If a definitive diagnosis is still unclear, other imaging tests may be necessary, usually an MRI. In some cases, an arthroscopic exam of the knee may be performed. The doctor will insert tiny cameras into your knee. The cameras will show any damage inside the knee joint.TreatmentIf you do suffer a torn ACL, your treatment will depend on your age, activity requirements, and the extent of your injury. Here are the most common treatments:Most of these remedies can be done at home:Rest and stay off the knee as much as possibleKeep the knee iced and elevatedAnti-inflammatory medications (like ibuprofen) will help with pain and swellingWearing a knee brace to stabilize the knee jointIf these methods do not work for you, or you are more active, other treatments may be used to help repair your knee and get you back on your feet.Surgical treatment involves repairing and rebuilding, or replacing the ligament. In the past, this surgery required opening the knee to reconstruct the ACL. It was performed with success, but the rehabilitation process was slow. Today, doctors most often perform arthroscopic surgery to make repairs. A graft (usually from a tendon in the knee) can be used to rebuild or replace the ACL. This procedure is very effective because it uses your own tissue and allows the knee to retain its normal range of motion. The knee can heal back to its original degree of strength with a low risk of infection or graft rupture. The reconstruction usually lasts a lifetime, but repeat tears can occur with sufficient stress.Physical therapy programs will help to restrengthen the knee during conservative and after surgical treatments. These programs will help you:Regain range of motionStrengthen the muscles around the kneeImprove balanceProtect the ligament from further damageProvide physical training to get you on your skis againAn ACL brace is generally prescribed for use with any physical activity for some time after the surgery. It will help stabilize the knee while it continues to strengthen.Treatment can be effective but considering the pain, inconvenience, surgery, and the lengthy recovery, your best bet is to prevent ACL injuries from happening in the first place. Some prevention tips below might help you avoid injury on the slopes.Prevention The best way to do this is to strengthen the muscles surrounding the knee, specifically the hamstrings and quadriceps. The reason? These 2 sets of muscles are crucial in giving a skier the ability to regain balance and control (such as after catching an edge). This will help you to prevent the twisting and hyperextension of the knee that can cause the ACL to tear. The hamstrings also control forward motion of the shin bone on the thigh bone, so strength in this muscle group is essential.Strength training is one important way to help prevent injury. Here are some others:Ski under controlBend your hips and knees when landing from a jumpWarm up before exercisingMake sure your ski bindings are at the correct settings for size and abilityStrengthening the leg muscles is particularly beneficial in the months prior to the start of ski season. Consider consulting a sports physician or trainer to try out other exercises and stretches designed to strengthen your knees and the rest of your body. These can improve your performance and lower your risk of injury.RESOURCES:Ortho Info—American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeonshttp://www.orthoinfo.orgSports Med—The American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicinehttp://www.sportsmed.orgCANADIAN RESOURCES:Canadian Orthopaedic Associationhttp://www.coa-aco.orgCanadian Orthopaedic Foundationhttp://www.canorth.orgReferences:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.

imagine!! uindogan (wind eyes) the uzumaki legacy
i would like to start a thread about the possibility that if naruto and hinata "get it on" their baby might have a new type of doujutsu
it could be called the uindogan (lit. wind eyes) uindo is just another word for kaze
they could look like pale green byakugan with a thin black border, but when they activate it there would be a line like when naruto goes kyuubi
that line could evolve (sort of like the sharingan) where it would become a three pointed shuriken, then a four pointed shuriken and then finally into a five pointed shuriken to acheive better control over their domain, which would be being able to see and control the chakra in the air and using it for their own jutsu
here are a few jutsus i thought would go good with the uindogan:
uindoyari (lit. wind spear): the user does hand seals (ox, snake, rooster) grabs chakra from the air, it will solidify, and throw it at the enemy at high velocity
C Rank - Mid to Long range
uindoyariame (lit. wind spear rain): the user does seals (ox, snake, horse, rooster) places his/her hands into the air's chakra, does a throwing motion like gohan's masenkoha and multiple spears are tossed at the enemy at high velocity
B Rank - Mid to Long range
uindoto (lit. wind blade): the user does hand seals (ox, horse, boar, rooster) grabs chakra from the air, forms it into a blade of the shape and size he/she desires and begins hand to hand combat (the blade will be slightly visible)
B Rank - Close range
and here is my favorite idea,
uindokagebushin (lit. shadow wind clone): the user does a sweeping motion with his/her arms to gather up chakra from the air (since no one will ever have as much chakra as naruto) and does the regular shadow clone hand seal and makes a certain number of clones depending on the skill and size of the jutsu (this jutsu is very difficult to master but worth the wait, you still need to use some of your chakra to make the clones but you use the air's chakra to strenghten it so it can have much more durability)
A Rank - Close range
uindotokagebushin (lit. wind sword shadow clone): this is a taijutsu where the user makes a number of clones and all the clones make wind sword and they all do various uzumaki rendans
I tried to find where I should post thins but I coudn't find it

Ok, I was in the [Manga] The Original Concept for 'Rasengan' thread, and we some how got on to arguing about the Chidori...As to "what" it is and how it is made and everything. Someone said soemthing about it not being Lightning based and what not, etc...And then we started getting off topic from the Rasengan to the Chidori. So I was wondering if there could be a thread in which we can argue our opinions about the Chidori as to what it is, the type it is, how it works. That way we can take in as to what everyone else thinks to help improve our own opinion to gain more knowldege. I did a search and found the thread "General Chidori Discussion" but as I got to reading it, it was really only talking about what makes it so special. So I don't want to post anything untill I'm for sure in which it would be appriate to post in there...

As already repeated, please use "search" feature, with "advanced search" => "Search Titles Only", the later being quite handy to quickly find out threads of your interest.

A thread about Naruto timeline with the heading :
[Manga Only] Naruto Timeline.
I found one such thread but it had no manga tag. If anyone is willing to do it and if you allow it would be great thanks.
- Include in the timeline important events like Ninja wars and main characters events and developments.
- Only facts no assumptions or biases.
- Into the shippuden until the most recent chapter (381 at the time of typing).

yaluckyboy: That's not a thread, it's a fanfiction. Actually, we've already deleted the thread too many times to create it on purpose.
I'll leave ChojinLocke's request to be handled by Hunter or monir.
Kazuma77: I'd be surprised if we didn't already have a thread about Sai, but I'm getting tired of doing everyone's searching for them. The name of this thread isn't "Request a moderator to search for old threads." I'm sure that Hunter or monir will know if the thread exists so I'll leave this one for them also. Or maybe another member will win brownie points from me if they post the answer.

[Manga] Sai makes a good permanent Sasuke Replacement
[Poll] What do you think of Sai?
Both threads are open and ready for posting. I'm sure there are more, but you can't search the word "Sai" because it's too short, and I already looked through 500 threads, so I'm calling it good. Yay, Brownie Points with NoSanninWa *cheer*
PS. Sorry I didn't know how to make the titles of the threads into the links, I'm not message-board-savvy like that.
Edit: Yay, I scored brown-nose...er, brownie points!! On an unrelated note, how do I make the links to different pages into different forms; i.e. turn the title of a thread into the link to the thread?

-I would like to request a thread discussing the upcoming Naruto shippuden: Narutimate Accel 2 game. With less than 2 weeks of it's release I believe there's sufficient enough material to be discussed. Considering we have a thread dedicated to the Wii version equivalent I think that it is only fair to have a thread dedicated to the PS2 version as well.

2008 was another great year for new Hard Rock and Heavy Metal albums and I was lucky to have heard a great many of them. There were hundreds of new albums released by hundreds of bands over a wide range of Metal genres, it was very hard to keep up especially when I'm spending my hard-earned cash! Unfortunately, I can't buy every new album so there are more than a few that I have missed. I buy a lot of music but the failing economy took it's toll on my music budget. I was very lucky to have caught the attention of many labels, PR firms, and bands sending in their CDs for review (to all of them I would like to extend a very grateful THANK YOU), without these promotions I would have never heard some great releases.
The only criteria I followed for my Top 30 was that the album had to be a studio album, not a live record, best of, or covers collection. The ranking of the Top 30 is based solely on my enjoyment of the album and not some scientific formula. Bottom line: I had to like it! There were so many releases this year that I doubled the list this year so I will be splitting it into two posts. Be sure to check out the links to the album reviews. So here it is, my Top 30 Albums of 2008 (#16 – #30):
The only thing that Motörhead does year in and year out is make really good Heavy Metal albums and this year is no exception. MOTÖRIZER isn't groundbreaking, it sounds just like all the other Motörhead records before it, but it's a solid consistent effort from a band that is legendary but never gets the success it deserves. Any year with a new Motörhead album in it is a good one.
It only took 8 years but AC/DC finally came roaring back with a really strong album in BLACK ICE. It's more Blues than in your face Hard Rock but the typical AC/DC punch is still there. Brian Johnson sounds like he turned back the hands of time and the team of Angus & Malcolm Young on guitars still has the fire that burned in the '70s & '80s. A great comeback!
Gypsy Pistoleros – Para Siempre
Technically, PARA SIEMPRE is a reissue of the Gypsy Pistoleros' debut, WILD, BEAUTIFUL, DAMNED (2007), remastered with two additional songs added in. I wasn't sold on taking traditional music from Spain and mixing it into a Hard Rock blender but the Pistoleros do a great job of channelling the Crue, GNR, and Hanoi Rocks mixed with flamenco and Spanish music. I'm half Colombian so I dig the Spanish influences and I really like the mix of English & Spanish (the band calls it "Spanglish") to give it an added dimension.
Jorn – Lonely Are The Brave
Jorn Lande continues to make some of the best Metal records of the last decade and LONELY ARE THE BRAVE is no exception. Jorn is a monster vocally and the surrounding cast is as solid as they come. Unfortunately, I bought this very late in the year so I haven't had much time to enjoy it.
Another great album from one of the most underrated bands in Heavy Metal. Brainstorm plays great epic Power Metal but DOWNBURST shows a band that is willing to evolve it's sound and becoming more dynamic. It's not a groundbreaking album but the band follows the path laid down by Primal Fear and Kamelot.
Dokken – Lightning Strikes Again
Dokken's best album since 1999's ERASE THE SLATE, the band continues to play melodic Hard Rock with a great musicianship and songwriting. Jon Levin adds some George Lynch style playing back into the overall Dokken sound and the rhythm section of Barry Sparks and Mick Brown is as solid as ever. Don Dokken's vocals are a little underwhelming because he doesn't hit the highs he used to and there really isn't a solid backing track. Still a very good album.
Night Ranger – Hole In The Sun
HOLE IN THE SUN is a more modern sounding Night Ranger but there is still the trademark melodic sound that made them a big success back in their '80s heyday. Best performance on the album goes to drummer/singer Kelly Keagy because his vocals were excellent. This album didn't really get me at first but it grew on me as I played it more.
I'm a big fan of female-fronted Gothic/Ambient Metal and Temujin debuts with an album that has the guitars leading the way and the vocals keeping the listener entranced. Temujin vocalist Kelly has a beautiful voice that reminds me of The Gathering's Anneke Van Giersbergen in that her performance is powerful without going over the top. A solid debut.
LAND was my first experience listening to Týr and I was pleasantly surprised. Sometimes the terms Pagan Metal or Viking Metal throws fans off but what really is happening is Metal mixed with Nordic influences. Týr blends traditional folk to their Metal and uses their native language, as well as choir style backing vocals, to enhance their sound. This album got me into a whole new genre of Metal.
Pharaoh creates gool old traditional U.S. Metal based on good guitars, a solid rhythm section and good vocals. The band puts the power forward but you get the general idea after the first few songs. The album gets better as it continues and the band stretches out a little.
I didn't get into The Sword's first album but, when I put on this new album, I immeadiately heard what I was missing. GODS OF THE EARTH has an early Thrash and NWOBHM element added to a sludgy Doom Metal groove. It's a very heavy record that's grown on me all year long.
I found out about Griffen because of my obsession with '80s Swedish metallers Torch: two current members of Torch are in Griffen. Technically, LINKED IN ETERNITY is a promo demo E.P. but it's done so well I'm throwing it in the countdown. The band plays a really good blend of Traditional Metal and melodic Hard Rock so I have no idea how these guys aren't signed to a label.
Uli Jon Roth – Under A Dark Sky
Anytime guitar maestro Uli Jon Roth releases a new album it's a good year! How can you deny the talent of a man that was so unsatisfied with regular guitars that he went out and invented one (the Sky Guitar) that suited his ability? I gues you could call this a true Rock opera with all the classical elements and orchestral movements but the underlying focus is Roth's playing.
A strong debut from a band whose members are only a couple years removed from high school. I was surprised with all the old school Metal influences in the music from such a young band. What the band lacks in experience they more than make up for in attitude and energy. A solid debut.
Metallica – Death Magnetic
See what happens when a band goes back and listens to their previous records, they make a Heavy Metal album! This is the album that Metallica needed to make to prove that they can still play Metal. Some of the songs are a little long but that's a small complaint, the songs are really good…..better than I expected. Hopefully Metallica continues in this direction.
Please check out the Top 30 Albums of 2008 (#1-#15) for the other half of my Top 30 list.
In case my list wasn't enough, or you simply don't agree, some other great Music blogs have listed their Top Albums of 2008:
All Metal Resource
Bring Back Glam
Hair Metal Mansion
Hard Rock Hideout
Heavy Metal Time Machine
Imagine Echoes
Layla's Classic Rock
Metal Excess
The Metal Minute
The Ripple Effect
Rock And Roll and Meandering Nonsense
Rock Of Ages

While most of the New Moon cast was at the official afterparty following last night's screening in New York, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart slipped away for some private quality time.
Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz and Peter Facinelli all hit up the postscreening bash held at the Box. Ed Westwick also made a late appearance, with girlfriend Jessica Szohr arriving even later.
But Rob and Kristen were over at Avenue, holding court at a table upstairs with a bodyguard making sure people gave them their privacy—but no such luck.
Rob, trying to go incognito, wore a baseball cap, while Kristen was smoking a cigarette (which is illegal). Unlike the movie, there was no Taylor Lautner around, and Kristen seemed to only have eyes for Rob…
The costars were sitting right next to each other and kept whispering in each other's ears and laughing together. At one point, Kristen started stroking Rob's back.
And the two were still going strong at the club till 3 a.m.
In case there's anyone out there who still has doubts, looks like Robsten is totally on!
Back Stroking.
And Kristen can smoke wherever she wants, get the fuck outta here!!!! She's Kristen and she needs a shmiggy!

My family loves this dish. I have five kids so getting 10 thumbs up on any one dish is difficult! Everyone agreed and it is a "make again" as we call it.
Dec 4, 2009
Excellent! This is an expensive recipe and I make it on special occasions. Last year I made it for Easter and this year I got requests for it for New Years. Everyone absolutely loved it. You would never know it had been lightened. The only change I made was that I didn't make the sauce. I poured a good store-bought sauce over the shells and they were wonderful.
Apr 23, 2009
Too many cheeses used in this recipe. There's no reason to use cottage cheese AND ricotta. And, I've never seen cheddar cheese used in stuffed shells. My family wouldn't eat it. To us, Italian cheeses are ricotta, parmesan, mozzarella, and these are the only ones I'd use in stuffed shells or lasagna. There's very little flavor difference when using low-fat cheeses, so I don't consider this a makeover recipe. My own recipe has less fat! I use low-fat ricotta, 2% Mozzarella, and no sausage. I haven't found a turkey sausage that tastes good to my family. I also don't put ground beef in the stuffed shells, I make a meat sauce instead with less ground beef (93% lean.)
Aug 1, 2008
Very good, although a weee bit expensive for my budget (with all of the different cheeses). Will definitely make again, but perhaps for special occasions.

[Swords of the Skull-Takers] 23 Days To Kill
February 01, 2011, 06:13:15 AM »
I was at WarpCon in Cork, Ireland over the weekend and I got in some Sword of the Skull-Takers in UCC's Old Bar. Two games, one of 7 days and nights, the other of 23 days and 22 nights.
In the end I managed to get a Worldly Victory for my 40K Space Marines against the skull-taking Space Orks (and while I had the journal of the dead character from my first game it didn't actually help me get the victory).
So, I'll post up my APs in the next few days: first up is Leman Russ (7 days), then it'll be Apothecary Rygel Daxxor (6 days) who chained into his former NPC Sister Syn (16 days) who chained to the victorious Pedro Cantor (1 day).
I was a bit unlucky in that it could have been quicker if I'd gone with Leader as Daxxor, the way the cards fell. Poor Leman Russ was quite unlucky though. The Major Boons need a bit of tweaking here and there, and testing.
The interludes were good, and I made use of 2 of them as Sister Syn in lasting 16 days.

So, first up on Saturday was
Leman Russ
I am Leman Russ. I am a Fighter. The Space Orks have landed and have over run our lines. My Space Wolves are scattered, my communicator is out and I need to survive. Praise Be The Emperor. Yesterday I saw my marines beheaded by the wild skull-taking Ork scum. They will be avenged.
Day 1: Successful exploration and Gamble. Got the Temperance card.
Night 1: No attack. (Good colour here in my diary as I drew the 5 of cups and a multi-mouthed creature that I interpreted as a drunken ork squealing and singing. I decided that I easily killed it.
Day 2: Unsuccessful exploration (started out right, went wrong)
Night 2: 1 attack, now Shaken (even with a re-flip).
Day 3: Unsuccessful exploration.
Night 3: No attacks.
Day 4: Successful exploration and Gamble. Got the Luna card (which can be combined with Star and Sun to give a Cosmic Victory).
Night 4: 1 Attack. Got Hurt and then Greviously Wounded.
Day 5: Disastrous Exploration, now at Death's Door. I figured that the supplies I was trying for were booby trapped. Damn Orks!
Night 5: 1 Attack. Discarded Temperance to Survive an injury at this point.
Day 6: Successful exploration, got the 2 Wands and used it to Heal back to Greviously Wounded (but as written I think it can't be used until the next day, which sucks, and I'd have to give up a day of exploring to heal one wound).
Night 6: 2 Attacks. Ork Boss with a PowerGlove puts me back at Death's Door.
Day 7: Unsuccessful exploration.
Night 7: Dead on first attack.
So, the headless corpse of the Space Wolves leader is lying in a hole with the Luna card. I resolved to avenge Leman's death later in the convention.
I'd like to see Wands used at any time to heal (much like Elixir in my favourite computer game of all time
Halls of the Things
. Or maybe a Healer Class that can do that to themselves and others?

Cool, thanks Gregor.
A healer class sounds pretty good.
Russ could have discarded Temperance to avoid taking a wound - he seems to be hoarding two kinds of victory cards.
Maybe space wolves are just pansies - I want to see how Sister Syn got on for her 16 day stint!
Do you have the ability to scan your journals (again)?

Oh, I should have said I was playing with
version 0.3
I want to get into my tactics a little here for this first game before I head into the Apothecary's go. I was purposefully not using the Temperance card to leave open the options for different victories (Temperance: Spiritual, Luna: Cosmic). Rather than use either to avoid a wound at first, I was considering the possibility of leaving both with Leman Russ for a follow up character to gain when they encountered his headless corpse. Or for an NPC to have when they switched to the main character. I didn't get any NPCs as Russ (and NPCs are now something I see as vital to success) so maybe I should have had an Interlude to search for an NPC card I liked in the deck rather than avoiding one measly wound.
So, I went through a few rounds where I thought giving up one of the two victory cards was not optimal. I could have used one for an Interlude but that would invalidate a type of victory and if I searched for an NPC it wouldn't re-set the Attacks. If I used it to re-set the Attacks it wouldn't necessarily yield an NPC. Using it for avoiding Injury seemed less than it was "worth". In the end I relented, used it, and then regretted it.
So Russ died and I resolutely left Luna unused and with his corpse.
I resolved to do better in a follow-up game!

After taking my index cards of play through to Glasgow last night to show Joe, I have now left them in my bag at home. So, Rygel Daxxor will have to be posted tomorrow.
I did get to ask Joe about some questions I had, so I'll put the answers here while I remember them!
The World card is currently a bit strange. It gives you +1 cache ... but then uses up that +1 cache itself. I played with it as not counting towards my 5 cards and it functioned as a "free floating" victory card (i.e. it could be matched with two other victory cards of a particular type to complete that victory type).
Do Barricades carry over if you "chain" play when an NPC becomes the PC? Joe seemed to think "yes", which was how I played it.
Healing seemed a bit of a pain. I had to spend a day finding the healing card and then spend a day using it to Heal (in the meantime, the threat has increased by 2). I'd prefer Healing cards to be played at any time to heal.
And I'd forgotten what a barren run Sister Syn had until after her second Interlude!

So... 23 days begins!
I am Apothecary Rygel Daxxor. A Space Wolves Medic. I am looking for my Leader Leman Russ. Emperor Bless Me so that I may reach him before the skull-taking Space Ork scum get to him. Hail the Emperor. Hail! Hail!
He is a Worker, which allows him to build barricades as well as explore.
Day 1: 2 Cups (Survivor, but the lowest one) success: I find Marine Mauler "A good start the Emperor praises us.
Night 1: No attack but the imagery is one of Adepta Sororitas, with Jump Packs, fighting in the sky by night.
Day 2: Mauler explores and finds the King of Wands (A Holy Rosarius: supplies!)
I explore and am frustrated in my attempts, but not injured.
Night 2: Orks overrun us, they use a Heavy Plasma Gun and leave Daxxor shaken.
Day 3: Mauler explores and brings back a Psyker called Adask Al Amair (4 Cups, the image just shouted "Psyker!")
I explore and am frustrated again, the Adepta Sororitas have trashed the supplies I was looking for.
Night 3: No attacks.
Day 4: Psyker targets a Wands card and is killed on the second draw.
Mauler explores again and finds the 10 of Cups (Sister Syn, and Adepta Sororitas)
I explore and get the 5 of Coins card, which I keep to turn into a Barricade tomorrow.
Night 4: Ork Champion with a PowerAxe attacks us and I kill him, but not before Daxxor is Hurt.
Day 5: Build a Barricade (and can I and Heal rather than explore) ... Joe, it says I can build a Barricade and Explore. Healing card says I can Heal instead of Explore. So this is allowed? Can I can Build and Heal. I decide not to Heal and keep the Rosarius (King of Wands card). Burn off the Coins cards and I now have a Barricade.
Sister Syn explores and finds a Teleporter, which I gamble on and it gets me The World Major Arcana.
Mauler explores and draws an Ace, I say lower and get ... an Ace. He is killed by an Ork Dreadnought. It rips brave Mauler limb from limb. I was totally gutted at this and wanted to punch Joe. More so when Conor who was watching me play pointed out there was a card that allowed me to win ties, but I didn't have it, so he thought it was fair enough. He also pointed out that I could have been a Leader and kept Mauler alive. Yeah, yeah, I know that Conor. Still down though.
Night 5: Three Waves! Just what I need on the back of that double Ace! I burn a Barricade and fight off two waves. Then Orks in boats with Heavy Stubbers and a Plasma Pistol put me at Death's Door!
Day 6: Build a Barricade and Hunt for Leman Russ, find his corpse and gets The Moon card as well as his diary.
Sister Syn doesn't explore (I'm keeping her alive now for the inevitable!)
Night 6: Apothecary Daxxor is decapitated and Sister Syn flees with 1 Barricade, The World (not counting towards cache), The Moon, King of Wands.
Sister Syn up next (and she is far less successful than Daxxor or Mauler for a long time!).

I thought it was pretty cynical of me not to explore with Sister Syn on the last day but having lost Mauler and the Psyker I wasn't going to die without having someone to chain my cards to.
Anyway, I'll do up to the first Interlude for Sister Syn (which is totally based on
this piece of art
from the original Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader book -- I think it's one of the most iconic images in that book).
I am Sister Syn. Adepta Sororitas and vengeful daughter of the Emperor.
Starts with: The World, The Moon, King of Wands, 1 Barricade. Fighter.
Day 1: Escaped and looked for a conversion field, but was thwarted by an Ork King.
Night 1: No attacks, but dreams of the Psyker Adask (I drew the same card as he'd been represented by)
Day 2: Explored for weapons and got a Needle Gun loaded with Toxin designed to kill Orks.
Night 2: Two Waves! Space spawned Gretchin, which I gunned down. A Heavy Stubber left me Shaken, but the Emperor's Will sees me through.
Day 3: Searching for survivors. Find only sacrifices. (Failed on the second flip.)
Night 3: Two Waves! I out-thought a drop ship of drunk, screaming Orks and then gunned down a cross-bred Space Zoat (the images on the cards helped here, as well as my knowledge of Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader, the original book, creatures)
Day 4: Failed exploration. Thwarted by a Witch Queen, who is spy drinking the blood of Leman Russ from his head.
Night 4: Orks are unleashed by the Witch Queen. I shoot the Orks up and commandeer a Dreadnought to escape, heading for "Wolf Home"
Day 5: Find Wolf Home and the Book of Hope. (I win and gamble for a Major: Temperance)
Night 5: Drums in the deep. I hear Orks celebrating.
At this point I called for an Interlude. I discard the Rosarius (King of Wands) and my Needle Gun (a Sword card). Keeping: The Moon and Temperance, and The World (which doesn't count towards cache).
Interlude 1: I embark on a Quest for the Wolves. After 40 days and nights I find the Chapter Wolves and skin one for a cloak, The others lead me to the Chapter Relics.
This resets the day count of the next day from 6 to 2. I should have written in using up the Needle Gun too, but I didn't.
So Day Count will be (2) even though it is Day 6, and I have 3 Victory Cards (offering currently a Spiritual or Cosmic victory), 1 Barricade and I'm Shaken.

So, Interlude 1 over, my quest continues!
Day 6 (2): I go questing for the fabled Wolfblade that will allow me to smite my enemies. My quest falters as I discover the sacred weapon has been spirited away.
Night 6 (2): No Orks around, though I see fires on the horizon. The sky aflame.
Day 7 (3): I see a survivor but he is a Corrupted Chaos Space Marine. I blow his brains out. (Another failed exploration with one right, one wrong.)
Night 7 (3): Dreams of Adask again (like Night 1). The card kept coming out after reshuffles which was a nice trigger for re-incorporation (the same was also true for the Sword card wielding an Axe).
Day 8 (4): Quest killing Gretchin in their spawning grounds. I blow up a tower (based on the imagery of the cards). (Another failed exploration -- third in a row!).
Night 8 (4): Orks come for me as I rest and I manage to fight them off.
I call for another Interlude! This will reset the Day Nine down to 1 rather than 5.
At this point it's harder to judge which card to keep. I keep The World as I'm not counting it in the cache. I then keep The Moon (Cosmic Victory) and discard Temperance (Spiritual Victory).
In the Interlude I make contact with the Blood Angels. They are in orbit around the planet and they advise me to move towards their lines. They are fighting bitterly against the Orks and Chaos Marines on the planet surface.
Day 9 (1): And Orbital Bombardment ruins my exploration (fail then success).
Night 9 (1): Take shelter and stay out of the rain. No attacks.
Day 10 (2): I track a skull-taking Ork with a sword, and find a coven of Orks worshipping Khorne. They behead a wolf and I have a fruitless search. (They're my notes, I can't remember the cards I drew here.)
Night 10 (2): Orks stay clear of me. I sing a Battle Hymn to ward them off and give me spiritual strength.
Day 11 (3): I successfully find the Queen of Coins and gamble it: I succeed and find The Hanged Man.
Former Inquisitor Caleb Ravenscrye a disgraced former member of the Ecclesiarchy who heralds a Diabolic Victory. He begs for forgiveness...
Night 11 (3): Snotling Snipers attack and then Rueg, an Ork Warboss with a PowerClaw. I'm Hurt by Witch-brewed toxin. A flamer crew then attcak but I outrun them as their gas taknks slow them down. Caleb re-appears after the attack...
Day 12 (4): Caleb adventures and succeeds. I gamble and he finds The Hermit: Pedro Cantor, a former leader of the Crimson Fists. He was made an outcast when he lost his Chapter.
I explore for the Blood Angels and find an Ork Gargant (like a Titan) and turn away in despair. Returning to camp I find Cantor and Caleb.
Night 12 (4): Cantor helps us evade the Orks (no attacks) and leads us down a lava tube.
Day 13 (5): Syn gets materials for a Refractor Field (Barricade).
Cantor gets a Land Raider (Sword card). It has a Lascannon on it.
Caleb runs into a spawning ground and the Witch consumes him. He dies (doubel failure) in orgasmic delight and is psychic scream is heard by Syn and Cantor. (At least a Diabolic Victory is gone!)
Night 13 (5): Re-animated Caleb attacks us. Cantor crushes him to death with his PowerFist (1 attack out of 5 cards).
Night 14 (6): Cantor (Hermit) makes the Barricade (Refractor Field) -- now have 2 Barricades. He can do this and explore.
Syn explores and finds Psyker Aerun Sol (High Priestess), due for Sacrifice by the Chaos Witch.
Cantor explores and fights an epic battle to defeat an Ork King. He rescues a Living Saint of the Ordo Hereticus (The Empress), who had been led into a trap by the Chaos Witch.
Night 14 (6): A Chaos Dreadnought attacks and it is destroyed in a mighty battle.
Day 15 (7): Syn finds the Wolfblade (Swords card) an dgambles. Failure. The sword is just a sword. The strength comes from within.
Cantor goes to fight the Commander of the Space Orks and is sidetracked by the Chaos Witch. (Misses a turn as he's a Major NPC).
The Psyker Sol is put into a psychic fugue by a Greater Daemon of Khorne. (Misses a turn.)
The Living Saint is lost in the trenches as the Orks use gas weapons.
Night 15 (7): Syn defeats some Chaos Marines with power swords but is then assaulted by two Chaos Dreadnoughts. Greviously Wounded she has used the Landraider (Sword card).
(I could maybe have used barricades here... but I am keeping them for Cantor now...)
Day 16 (8): A failed exploration. Syn is alone.
Night 16 (8): A Gargant find Syb. Death's Door and she dies.
I am Pedro Cantor. I will avenge Sister Syn, who fought so hard on this earth.
Cantor is a Leader. The Moon, High Priestess, Empress, The World. 2 Barricades.
Day 1: Cantor find the Magician, Ajax Mund, trapped in the Chaos Witch's tower.
The Living Saint (Empress) finds a Major Boon... The Emperor. (A Worldly Victory: Emperor, Empress and The World if it's a free-floating victory card.)
She calls to the Emperor psychically and the world is scoured. The Marines leave the planet behind to the Chaos Horrors but Humanity survives. Cantor is redeemed.

Some thoughts.
I think it was tought to get any particular win without a free-floating victory card like the World. Certainly once a Major is discarded it's gone and so you can't get it back. In my game I could have got a Spiritual Victory but I'd discarded one of the cards earlier.
Healing is tough in that it uses up a day.
When you could do something + explore things picked up (e.g. barricade + explore of Cantor and Daxxor).
Getting NPCs seemed a good way to build towards a win. Major NPCs are pretty rad as they are hard to kill (consider all three of Syn's at the end got waylaid for a day rather than killed). The ability to keep NPCs alive/reflip seems pretty good (Leader).
I wondered about picking up "Abilities" at Interludes, e.g. multi-classing? (Leader/Fighter)
