In Friday's Times, Peter May wrote about the expectation surrounding the Harvard men's basketball team as it headed into Friday night's game with Penn and Saturday's against Princeton:
If Harvard can wrap up the season with home victories over the traditional Ivy League powers Penn and Princeton — and the Crimson have not lost at cozy Lavietes Pavilion this season — it will clinch no worse than a tie for the conference title. That would represent a first for the program, now in its 100th season.
While an Ivy League title has certainly been the program's white whale, the team has been in this position before. In 1984, Harvard entered the final Ivy League weekend needing a sweep of Columbia and Cornell to finish tied for first with Princeton, which it had beaten twice that season.
"I think Harvard's going to do it," Dolores Plutnicki told Andy Doctoroff, a columnist for The Harvard Crimson in 1984. "The whole season has been pretty good since Duke. And they've been coming back if they're down by a few points. That's the mark of a championship team."
Wow, of all times for a mother to be wrong.
Harvard didn't do it that season, that much we know. But as a co-captain of that team, I had never felt so sure that we would win as I did upon entering that Friday night game with Cornell.
O.K., so the team is remembered for its free-throw shooting. But we had terrific players, including Joe Carrabino, who became the program's career leading scorer; Bob Ferry, Danny Ferry's older brother; Arne Duncan, now the United States secretary of education; point guard Pat Smith; and a terrific shooter in Keith Webster.
I don't remember coming out flat or playing poorly; I don't think we did. We just never could control the tempo, we never got in a rhythm; it was a helpless feeling, really.
As the Cornell coach, Tom Miller, told Jeff Zucker, a sportswriter for The Crimson who later had a meteoric rise as a TV executive at NBC, "That's about as well as we've played all year."
Nice timing, that.
They had five guys score in double digits, and beat us, 76-67. I remember one time coming out to guard Ken Bantum on the wing in that game, knowing he would shoot as soon as he got it. I did not hesitate. I was heading out to block his shot before he even caught the ball, and I guessed right, too. He didn't even fake me. At any other time that season that shot is blocked, or tipped, but Bantum made it as if he were left wide open. And that's the way the whole game went. I can still see his wristbands.
A victory the next night against Columbia was bittersweet.
I was at Yale last weekend to watch Harvard try to maintain its half-game lead on Princeton. Yale played great. Harvard missed its last shot, lost, 70-69, and some Yale fans stormed the court, spilling into the halfcourt circle. I immediately thought back to the Cornell game. How could Harvard lose with everything to play for?
Sometimes it's the other team.
I WAS happy to read in May's article that Harvard Coach Tommy Amaker planned to talk to the team before Friday's game against Penn about the players and coaches who have come before them and who, he said, "are just as much a part of this journey as we are."
It was interesting to read a quotation by Keith Wright recently in The Boston Herald: "I think putting my first banner up is definitely why I came here."
It was interesting because this is what my teammate Joe Carrabino once listed among his reasons for choosing Harvard after being recruited by colleges like Stanford and Georgetown: "the chance … to lead the school to its first-ever Ivy League title."
And this is what Jeremy Lin, a 2010 graduate who plays for the Golden State Warriors, once said: winning "has been our goal for a while, to be the first team to win the Ivy League title."
And so it goes. Players from other eras can give the same reasons, tell the same stories. As Amaker said in The Times: "I'm not sure you can walk anywhere on this campus and find something that hasn't been done before. But we are on the verge of doing it."
Amaker is right. The former players are a part of this journey, and in more ways than one.
I mean, if we had won, would there be so much interest in Harvard's second Ivy League title?

As I mentioned before, if something needs to be done, I do my best to accomplish it, no matter what time of year it is. However, towards the end of 2017 I had a wonderful idea that rang true to me and allowed me to set some pretty lofty goals for 2018.
Those who know me personally will tell you that volunteering and philanthropy is near and dear to my heart. I have been fortunate to photograph for Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep for over 2 years (as a Photographer and serving on the Leadership Team as a Trainer), partner with an organization in Haiti, participate with the YWCA's annual fundraising gala each year, and contribute to other local & national organizations my family and I have been affected by.
I'm often thinking of ways photography would be beneficial to others, both long and short term. While it's a fine line of telling and boasting, I feel strongly that caring for others should be a common conversation that is had, in order to hold one another accountable and inspire each other. When volunteering, giving, or just loving on others becomes taboo, I think that can creep into dangerous territory.
It's for this reason that I chose to post about these goals: so that I could find out how to better serve others, gain some inspiration from you, and maybe encourage you to find your own passion in giving.
For the next 12 months, I am going to do my best to either donate, serve, or financially support a non-profit organization in our area, and I would love if you had any suggestions for me. Personally, my husband and I love finding different organizations in our community and learning how they are making a difference. If I can be a part of that in some small way, I would love to.
I have a small list going but would still love to hear what you are passionate about. It's there a specific need you know of that could use a little attention? If so, let me know! Maybe we can work on something fabulous in the New Year.

This document was one of the first to specifically focus on what lived and experienced the young lesbian, gay, bisexuals and transgender (LGBT) when they are confronted to juvenile justice. These young peoples keep on suffering from discrimination at home, at school and in the society in general which makes them even more vulnerable. This report identifies the obstacles to a fair treatment of the young LGBT in conflict with the law. Many recommendations are also included in the report aiming to protect the rights of the young LGBT and assure the implementation of an effective system responding to their needs.

The Wicker Man Clips
Several people have told me that Nicholas Cage's performance in The Wicker Man (2006) is awful. They're absolutely right. In fact, this remake of the 1976 classic is so bad that it has become one of my favourite films.
How can you not love lines like this:
You little liars. Rowan Woodward is your classmate. Isn't she. Isn't she! That is her desk! And you're the biggest liar of them all. I'm warning you. You tell me another and I'll arrest you myself. That is a promise!
I can't understand why director Neil LaBute agreed to do the remake. Many of the scenes are incredibly campy with Cage in the lead role. The dialogue is horrible and the plot is a mess. The film didn't screen for critics when it was released and was genrally panned - it has a score of 36 on Metacritic.
How can Cage win an Oscar for Leaving Las Vegas, act so poorly in The Wicker Man, then perform so well in Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans? They guy is all over the map but he makes me laugh every time he screams, "how'd it get burned? How'd it get burned? How'd it get burned?"

Since it's all the craze at the moment, and I have been obsessed with houseplants for a while now I thought why not write a little blog about how to keep our green friends happy?
Just to be clear, I'm no horticulturalist and would never pretend to be, but I do have a fair amount of experience and read a lot about plants so I'll gladly share my knowledge with you.
After the houseplant hype in the 70s/80s, monsteras weren't regulars in the modern household anymore. But since a few years everyone has at least one houseplant thriving (or not so much) in their abode.
About this plant
Monstera deliciosa, or also know as swiss cheese plant, split leaf philodendron or fruit salad plant is easily recognised by it's big green glossy leaves with splits and holes in them. It's natural habitat are the tropical rain forests in southern Mexico and central America. While it rarely flowers indoors, outdoors it can produce an edible fruit that is said to taste like a fruit salad, hence the name.
Where to keep
Monstera plants like normal indoor temperatures (20 to 30 degrees celsius) and thrive on high humidity and and filtered, indirect light. In a warmer climate like with us in Australia, you can also grow them outdoors in a more shaded location. If it gets too much sunlight, the light may burn and scorch the leaves. But not enough light might result into it not developing many holes and slits in the leaves.
Care and planting
Plant the Monstera in a well draining soil in a pot with drainage holes in the bottom. In it's natural habitat, the monstera is a climbing plant and will with age develop air roots to cling to trees. So you should provide your plant with a moss pole or trellis where it can climb up to.
Only water when the soil feels dry, it is a good idea to stick your finger in there and if it feels dry about a finger in, then water. You can give the Monstera standard liquid fertiliser about once a month during the spring and summer growing season.
When the Monstera outgrows it's old pot, (about every two years) repot in a pot that's a few inches larger and deeper than the old one.

Major networks CNN and Fox incorrectly announced that the Supreme Court struck down the Affordable Care Act, when in reality the court upheld most of its central provisions.
CNN and Fox not only reported this incorrect information on live TV, they also spread it across their social media channels. We all know how fast news can travel on Twitter; obviously CNN did not. It took them 13 minutes to issue a correction of the first tweet. By the time they did this it had already been re-tweeted hundreds of times.
The president was among the millions of misinformed when CNN and Fox broke the news of the Supreme Court's decision.
While White House officials say that the president was calm, we can all assume otherwise.
Happy Sharing 🙂

*Spoiler Alert! I'm showcasing the September 2016 Ipsy (my points referral code) Glam Bag today.
The Ipsy theme for September is Glamazon which remind me of the movie "The Devil Wears Prada", I loved that movie. The bag is awesome too. It's black, gold and white with a great texture and modern dance theme.
Are you ready? Here's what I got for September.
Dirty Little Secret Eyeshadow in Teaser – Here's another neat brand that looks interesting but the product is Made in China which I hate. The color is a warm lightish orange and is pretty. Oddly this color is not on their website and they appear to only carry one palette at this point.
Épicé International Restorative Toner – I'm excited about this product that is safety-sealed (I love that). It's supposed to "provide a cool, refreshing feeling while hydrating the skin and reducing inflammation." Love that! Full-sized price: $27
Tarte Tarteist Mascara – I've been wanting to try this Tarte Mascara so this is a win for me! Full-sized price: $23
Briogeo Don't Despair Repair – This deep conditioning hair mask smells really good and I'm excited to try it. Full-sized price: $36
Dr. G Daily Safe BB in Fair – This is a brand that I have never heard of but it looks interesting and I'll definitely give this BB Cream a try. Full-sized price: $32
I give this month a 9.5 only because of the eyeshadow. I feel I did a $10+ (and more) value this month so I'm very happy.
Did anyone get the Pixi by Petra Mattelustre Lipstick this month! I wanted that.

Web Hosting Made Easy (Part 1)
'Web Hosting' is a word that one would find splashed along the length and breadth of the 'World Wide Web'. But what exactly is web hosting? Web hosting is a term that refers to allotment of a portion of the 'www' to a client enterprise / individual either through sale or a leased contract.
The client can use this space to market their business (small / medium / large sized) on the internet and also interact with their customers for unmarred business development in the right direction. The person renting out that space, along with a functioning server, is called a provider or a host typically. And the person using the service is called the client.
Web Hosting Made Easy (Part 2)
Now that we are aware of the features / services available with a web host, let us get our hands dirty and get down straight to business. Consider the position of a small business owner (Online Store owner), who is highly dependent on ecommerce to sell his products. For such a client, it is highly essential to maintain his site up to date while marketing his product simultaneously. The business requirements of the client can be narrowed down to the following

One thing we completely underestimated for our trip would be how much driving there would be – they call it the "Big Island" for a reason. We quickly ditched our little tin can rental, first for riding along with friends in their Jeeps and later in the week trading in our car for one.

Many companies are continuing to consolidate their HR workflows into a single talent-management system.

German-Azerbaijani collaboration to deepen in the medical tourism sector
On 10 April 2018, the German-Azerbaijani Chamber of Commerce (AHK Azerbaijan) held the German-Azerbaijani Business Forum on "Medical Tourism" in the Hyatt Conference Centre, Baku.
The Business Forum was organised on the occasion of the visit of Berlin clinics specialised in cardiology, neurosurgery and oncology in cooperation with the Berlin Partner for Business and Technology GmbH. The event was officially opened by the Executive Director of AHK Azerbaijan, Mr. Tobias Baumann.
After the briefing on the event, Economic Attaché of the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany, Mrs. Heike Möckel mentioned opportunities for cooperation between Germany and Azerbaijan in the medical tourism sector and Germany's readiness for passing on its knowledge and expertise to the Azerbaijani counterparts. The Board Member of AHK Azerbaijan and Director of Sahhat clinic, Mr. Malik Karimov made a speech on Germany's support to Azerbaijan in the health system and joint projects and SES (Senior Expert Services) implemented with German companies.
Following the official opening of the Forum, Director of Public Health and Reforms Center of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Jeyhun Mammadov informed the participants about the current reforms, state programmes and future projects implemented in the medical tourism sector in Azerbaijan. Afterwards, the Chairman of Azerbaijan Health and Thermal Tourism Support Association, Mr. Ruslan Guliyev presented opportunities for German-Azerbaijani collaboration in medical tourism.
The Forum, attended by more than 100 participants from local and German companies, was followed by the presentation of the German delegation, delivering information about the activities of German clinics and medical institutions as well as the implementation of digital technologies in health and medical tourism. At the end of the event, B2B meetings were held between the German and Azerbaijani companies involved in the medical tourism sector.

Or maybe it was the awe towards the act of cutting that strange fruit. Taking a fig that seems kind of alive due to its softness, setting the knife to the fruit and making the cut into it feels like performing a surgical procedure. Cut into the purple-brown skin and you are facing an amazing dark pinkish red "muscle", cut deeper into the moist and succulent flesh...
The fig with sweet seedy inside and the smooth neutral cool thick skin makes it a perfect ingredient in desserts as well as in savoury pairing with cheese or thinly cut cured ham. Dared to try and the fresh figs have become a desirable treat whenever they are in season and I see the ripe bulging fruits on the shelves of good food stores.
Fresh Figs with Feta Cheese, a Very Simple Recipe
For a light lunch or a starter per person take 4-5 ripe figs, cut into quarters.
Cut 100g of feta cheese into cubes,
season with oregano and/or thyme and add some olive oil to the cheese.
Let the cheese rest in the oil for 15 minutes to take up the flavour from the herbs.
Serve with crusty bread or toast.
Parma ham, jamon iberico or any cured meat tastes good in combination too.

Tonight my daughter Kelli and I dressed up for our church's youth group game of "Where's Waldo?". We had on our fake bums and dressed "down". When we entered the mall, we thought that everyone would stare at us. Only a few did...and no one in the kiosks asked us if we wanted to try their hand lotion or buy a crystal studded hair barrette. It was weird.

Stacked (oil, 42×24) by Daryl Gortner was a Still Life finalist in the 25th Annual Art Competition. Gortner is our January 2009 Artist of the Month.
Residence: Fullerton, California
Website: www.darylgortner.com
Start in art: My painting career started only five years ago. Because my drawings at the time consisted mainly of stick figures, I enrolled in an art appreciation course at the college near my home, knowing it would require no drawing. But my professor told me that anyone can learn to draw; it's a skill like anything else.
I enjoyed the drawing class I took and then began painting. I had never even held a brush or opened a tube of paint. With encouragement from my professor and mentor, I've entered my work into shows, exhibitions, competitions and galleries. I won first place in The Artist's Magazine's 2005 Student Competition and have been a finalist multiple times in the professional division. I never envisioned anything like this would happen!
Media and genres: My primary media is oil, but I also enjoy using colored pencils. My main genre is still life—I love capturing a moment in time.
Inspiration for this painting: I love color and shiny surfaces. Ordinary objects such as cups and saucers with beautiful, vibrant colors catch my attention. When I enlarge them, I'm able to see the minute details in the reflections of their surroundings and how they reflect their color onto one another. I find real beauty in these small details.
Her process: I start with the idea I'd like to convey. From there, I set up a still life and take many photographs at various angles. I arrange and rearrange the objects and try different lighting before making my choices. When I've decided on the best composition, I put the drawing on the canvas. I first paint the background and then move to the foreground; only then do I start on the objects. My typical color palette contains ultramarine blue, burnt umber, cadmium yellow, cadmium orange, cadmium red, alizarin crimson, viridian, violet and white.
A typical painting takes one to three months, depending on the amount of detail. I've learned to have patience and work through the hard parts because those are usually the most beautiful areas when I'm finished. Stacked took about two months, not counting the preparation and photographs.
Why she creates art: There are two reasons: I want people to take pleasure in viewing my art, and creating it energizes my mind and makes me challenge myself.

Super Kamagra
Super Kamagra is prescribed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). Super Kamagra is a compound made of two active ingredients, namely Sildenafil and Dapoxetine (sildenafil 100 mg + dapoxetine 60 mg). Super Kamagra is one of the most popular drugs for potency improvement which not only increases erection but also helps to prevent premature ejaculation.

Super Kamagra 100mg
To top ↑
Super Kamagra can increase blood flow of the penis, and make the sexual intercourse happen naturally when a man is sexually stimulated. With more blood flowing in and less flowing out, the arteries in the penis just enlarge, generating an erection. Therefore, Super Kamagra can increase the intimacy between husband and wife, and improve the relationship of a couple. Why don't you buy Super Kamagra?
How Does Super Kamagra Work?
Both sildenafil and dapoxetine work in different ways within the body. Sildenafil is classed as a PDE5 enzyme inhibitor and works by facilitating the flow of blood into the penis. The enzyme PDE5 can break down another enzyme called cGMP. By inhibiting the action of PDE5, sildenafil allows cGMP to build up which results in a sustained erection. Dapoxetine is classed as a serotonin transport inhibitor. By inhibiting the transporter, it allows serotonin to perform at a higher level leading to the elimination of premature ejaculation. Premature ejaculation is a problem with control, that is to say, people with premature ejaculation cannot control when they ejaculate and often ejaculate at the beginning of sexual intercourse. Super Kamagra tablets will enable these processes to work simultaneously, allowing patients to enjoy an exciting and satisfying sex life.
Use Super Kamagra Super as directed by your doctor.
Take Super Kamagra Super by mouth with or without food. Kamagra may not work soon if you take it with a high-fat meal.
Super Kamagra Super is rapidly absorbed. Maximum effect occurs between 30 to 120 minutes of taking the tablet.
Super Kamagra Super can help you have an erection when sexual stimulation occurs. An erection will not occur just by taking a pill.
Do not take more than the recommended dose or take it more often than once daily.
If you miss a dose of Super Kamagra and you still intend to engage in sexual activity, take it as soon as you can remember. Continue to take it as directed by your doctor.
Super Kamagra Dosage
It is worth noting that the safe dose of Super Kamagra tablets is one tablet a day. It becomes efficient within one hour after the intake. The effect can last for 4-6 hours. The pill must be swallowed with a big glass of water. You should also escape high-calorie meals if you intend to take the pills. If you have any questions, you can just consult your doctor.
Store Super Kamgra at room temperature between 59 and 86 degrees F (15-30 degrees C) away from moisture, heat and light. Store Super Kamagra out of the reach of children.

Rekk (11:00:34 PM):
Viewtiful Rekk (11:01:08 PM): Kreis turns and...shoves a pamphlet into Amy's face. "Hello! Have you accepted the Light as your personal savior?"
Y Ruler of Time (11:03:00 PM): "...Shit. A zealot. Alastor is one sick dude."
Rakath Chaos (11:03:34 PM): Amy looks Kreis dead in the eyes, unable to see the pamphlet with her eyes opened like the are. "Riku, is she shoving a piece of paper in my face?"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:03:35 PM): "Z-zealot?!"
Y Ruler of Time (11:03:51 PM): "Yup."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:03:52 PM): "I-I'm not a zealot! I just spread the good word of the Light to all!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:04:03 PM): "Missionary, sure, but I'm not a zealot!"
Rakath Chaos (11:04:26 PM): "Figures... Look, lady, I don't care. Can't we just duel like normal kids?" Amy mumbles her spell to herself, and her eyes return to normal.
Y Ruler of Time (11:04:50 PM): "Normal kids duel?"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:04:55 PM): "Hrmph! Children these days, don't care about higher powers in the least..."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:05:09 PM): "If I beat you, then both of you have to listen to what I have to say about the Light! Agreed?!"
Rakath Chaos (11:05:24 PM): "Why would you beating me do thing one to him?"
Y Ruler of Time (11:05:32 PM): "I don' have t'agree to anythin', y'know...
Rakath Chaos (11:05:49 PM): "How about this, you beat me I'll find someone for you to tell this to, deal?"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:05:50 PM): "Because he called me a Zealot!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:06:17 PM): "...I suddenly feel a disturbance..."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:06:22 PM): "...very well."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:07:45 PM): Kreis brings up her arm. "What is your name, young lady?" The arm begins glowing.
Rakath Chaos (11:08:12 PM): Amy draws her six, "Amy, and you are?"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:08:59 PM): A star-shaped Duel Disk appears on her arm, and begins rapidly spinning, each of the five points shooting out, before clicking together into traditional Duel Disk shape. "My name is Hana Mizura, holder of the Light!"
Y Ruler of Time (11:09:49 PM): "No it isn't." Riku deadpans.
Viewtiful Rekk (11:10:08 PM): "...what do you mean?"
Y Ruler of Time (11:11:15 PM): " 'Ve had t'deal with masqueradin' Duel Spirits before...An' that was before Quince was able t'talk t'me. He c'n smell you."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:11:28 PM): "..."
Rakath Chaos (11:11:44 PM): "Yeah, my eyes kinda saw through you too, hence not seeing that paper you had in my face."
Rakath Chaos (11:12:45 PM): "But that doesn't matter, I just need to win, not know your history."
Rakath Chaos (11:12:54 PM): "I set a defender and a reverse, go."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:13:37 PM): Hrmph. I knew these clothes were a waste... "Draw!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:14:48 PM): "Set one monster and two reverses! End turn!"
Rakath Chaos (11:15:17 PM): "Draw!"
Rakath Chaos (11:15:57 PM): "I set a defender, go."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:16:52 PM): "Activate trap - Solemn Wishes!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:16:57 PM): "Draw!" (8500)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:17:43 PM): She flips up her defender. "Cat of Ill Omen!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:18:33 PM): She shows Greed and puts it on top.
Rakath Chaos (11:19:00 PM): "Interesting."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:19:28 PM): "I'll then summon Silent Magician LV4!" A young magician appears and nervously wrings her hands around her staff. This is not something a hologram does. (1000/1000)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:19:54 PM): "One more set card, and I end."
Rakath Chaos (11:20:02 PM): "Draw!"
Rakath Chaos (11:21:24 PM): "I'll tribute my facedown Nova Summoner, for Tethys, the Goddess of Light."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:21:43 PM): Kreis gasps...and bows profusely.
Y Ruler of Time (11:21:51 PM): "..."
Rakath Chaos (11:22:03 PM): "..."
Y Ruler of Time (11:22:21 PM): "She's so shocked she forgot you cut her off there."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:22:22 PM): "Bow, you!" She hisses at the magician. It bows as well. The cat merely rolls its eyes and lays down.
Rakath Chaos (11:22:57 PM): Amy facepalms, "This is going to be a weird day..."
Rakath Chaos (11:23:17 PM): "Tethys, attack the Silent Magician."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:23:31 PM): Eventually, Kreis stops. "Sigh...so cruel...I have to face my goddess on the field of battle..."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:23:53 PM): The magician lets out a feeble cry as she's destroyed. (7600)
Rakath Chaos (11:24:20 PM): "Now, in my Main Phase 2, I'll activate Divine Gift."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:24:45 PM): "Such a risky ability, considering you know what's coming."
Rakath Chaos (11:24:56 PM): Amy holds up Dunamis Valkyria, "Indeed, but its coming, not here."
Rakath Chaos (11:25:34 PM): Amy draws two, and holds up another Dunamis. "Now, I get to draw another card."
Rakath Chaos (11:25:37 PM): Draw.
Y Ruler of Time (11:25:47 PM): "..." Riku quirks an eyebrow. "How did that retort make any sense?"
Y Ruler of Time (11:26:09 PM): "It didn't sound cool at all."
Rakath Chaos (11:26:12 PM): "I'll set a reverse, and end for now."
Rakath Chaos (11:26:27 PM): "What, I should wait for her to set and activate Greed, THEN start drawing?"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:26:44 PM): "Draw!" (8100)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:27:06 PM): She points at the cat. "I offer Cat of Ill Omen as a tribute!"
Y Ruler of Time (11:27:22 PM): "That's not what I said," he sits down and leans back. "You should either pay more attention or have cooler lines. It's really not fun when you do neither."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:27:41 PM): A heavily armored warrior of light appears. "Kreis the Light Monarch!" (2400/1000)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:28:24 PM): The defender and Tethys are wiped out. "You may draw."
Rakath Chaos (11:28:39 PM): Tethys vanishes as Amy activates a reverse.
Rakath Chaos (11:28:43 PM): "Light of God!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:29:06 PM): "Counter Trap - Dark Bribe!"
Rakath Chaos (11:29:24 PM): "Hrm."
Rakath Chaos (11:29:28 PM): Amy draws 3.
Viewtiful Rekk (11:29:46 PM): Kreis sets one more. "End turn."
Rakath Chaos (11:29:52 PM): "Draw."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:30:07 PM): Greed immediately flips up. "I doubt this will surprise you."
Rakath Chaos (11:30:19 PM): "It doesn't."
Rakath Chaos (11:30:32 PM): "I discard Hekateris."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:30:56 PM): "My my, you think on your feet quite well..."
Rakath Chaos (11:31:22 PM): "And now I'll play Valhalla, the Palace of the Gods!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:31:36 PM): "Hm."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:31:48 PM): Kreis's other trap flips up. "Disturbance Strategy."
Y Ruler of Time (11:31:50 PM): "Y'know..." Riku turns and starts to make conversation with Quince. "It's really kinda ironic the deck strategy she uses."
Y Ruler of Time (11:32:29 PM): "I mean come on, Greed Burn. And she's a missionary. Like she's forcin' people to experience the sin so she can punish 'em for it. Kinda weird."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:32:48 PM): "You over there! Stop judging me!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:32:55 PM): "Judging others at a glance is a sin!"
Rakath Chaos (11:33:16 PM): Amy shuffles and Draws 7.
Y Ruler of Time (11:33:23 PM): "Aren't you doin' that right now?"
Rakath Chaos (11:34:22 PM): "Now, see where my loyalty lies! WINGWEAVER!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:34:43 PM): Kreis gasps again. "Oh my..."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:35:19 PM): "You...you must be a chosen one!"
Rakath Chaos (11:35:20 PM): "Not done, Tethys, Marshmallon! BEGONE!"
Rakath Chaos (11:35:28 PM): Soul of Purity and Light joins Wingweaver.
Y Ruler of Time (11:36:05 PM): "Y'know, they're just cards...but the irony's really...well...apparent."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:36:54 PM): "They ARE NOT just cards! You shut up!"
Rakath Chaos (11:37:08 PM): Amy is really feeling this is a bad day. "So Quince and my Wingweaver are just cards?"
Rakath Chaos (11:37:39 PM): "I'll Normal Summon my Freya too."
Rakath Chaos (11:37:54 PM): (500/500) (2400/2200) (3150/2800)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:38:05 PM): "...This will hurt a bit..."
Y Ruler of Time (11:38:10 PM): "You know what I mean. Shut up."
Rakath Chaos (11:38:40 PM): "I'll set two reverses. Wingweaver, attack!"
Rakath Chaos (11:40:23 PM): "Freya, Soul, Direct attacks!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:40:25 PM): The monarch is wiped out. (7350)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:40:52 PM): (4450) "Oof..." Kreis holds a hand over her chest.
Rakath Chaos (11:41:10 PM): "Now then, your turn." (4500)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:41:16 PM): "Draw!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:41:39 PM): (4950)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:42:02 PM): "...Set one monster. End turn."
Rakath Chaos (11:42:22 PM): "Draw!"
Rakath Chaos (11:45:12 PM): "Trap card - Miraculous Descent!"
Rakath Chaos (11:45:29 PM): Marshmallon appears... IN ATTACK MODE! (800)
Rakath Chaos (11:46:18 PM): "Creature Swap."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:46:34 PM): Kreis tosses Amy Des Koala.
Rakath Chaos (11:46:55 PM): "Now, I tribute this new monster, and my Freya."
Rakath Chaos (11:47:12 PM): "For another Wingweaver."
Y Ruler of Time (11:47:56 PM): "...Um...Amy..." Riku sits up. "Don't you think this is a bit...much?"
Rakath Chaos (11:47:59 PM): "All three, Attack Marshmallon!"
Viewtiful Rekk (11:48:23 PM): (0000)
Viewtiful Rekk (11:48:32 PM): "Well, it was a chosen one..." The disk disappears.
Rakath Chaos (11:49:05 PM): +9000 points to Amy?
Rakath Chaos (11:49:39 PM): "That was nothing, I did get to draw out 7 cards, I had to draw something." Amy shrugs as her holograms disappeared.
Viewtiful Rekk (11:50:07 PM): "Well, let's see, you had 4500 points left...you gain 9000 more points for this tournament, I suppose."
Rakath Chaos (11:50:31 PM): "Now, who are you really?"
Rakath Chaos (11:50:43 PM): "If I am a chosen one, you can tell me your real name."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:50:46 PM): Kreis's own Dis-Belt glows. She doesn't seem to notice.
Rakath Chaos (11:51:12 PM): Amy's Dis belt glows and she falls over, "Damn... Riku, why didn't you warn me about how that felt!?"
Y Ruler of Time (11:52:29 PM): "Was kinda distracted, gimme a break," he walks over and helps her up. " 'Sides, when it happened to me it was after I got knocked around by an army of darkness."
Viewtiful Rekk (11:52:59 PM): As Riku and Amy are distracted, Kreis makes herself scarce.
Rakath Chaos (11:53:49 PM): Amy blinks, "...Damnit. Let's go find Jin, at least we know they aren't human, and I got a good look at her spirit energy."
Y Ruler of Time (12:00:09 AM): "Nn..." Riku grunts in agreement. "...D'you suppose they're all weird like her?"
Rakath Chaos (12:01:13 AM): "Do you think we're lucky like that?" Amy paused, "Aside the magic summonable duel Disk, her energy was mostly human-like... but..." Amy paused, not sure how to explain the subtle differences in seeing energy.
Y Ruler of Time (12:02:33 AM): "Nah, I know what y'mean. It took Quince a little bit too."
Rakath Chaos (12:05:12 AM): "Her energy was light like mine. But it was rough..." Amy paused, "I'll explain when more people are around, I'd hate to have to repeat this a lot."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:09:12 AM): Meanwhile, Jin is in his own duel. "Sky Lord, direct attack!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:09:42 AM): The angelic stone behemoth raises up a fist and smashes the opponent into next week. Jin deactivates his Duel Disk. "Hrmph."
Rakath Chaos (12:10:47 AM): "Good job Jinnifer," Amy applauded from nearby, watching Jin do his work.
Viewtiful Rekk (12:11:47 AM): His Dis-Belt glows. "...ngh..." He turns around. "What the hell do you want...?" He asks, his breathing a bit labored.
Y Ruler of Time (12:12:07 AM): "...How much've you been doin' that, outta curiosity?"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:12:25 AM): "..What's it to you...?"
Rakath Chaos (12:12:42 AM): "We just toasted one of Alastor's minions enforcer chicks."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:12:52 AM): "I see."
Rakath Chaos (12:12:53 AM): "She wasn't human, but I'm not sure what type of spirit she was."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:13:49 AM): "...Well I'll just pull out my magic glasses and go look at her energy myself."
Y Ruler of Time (12:14:20 AM): "Sure, let's just get down t'business, not bother worryin' 'bout each other..." Riku mumbles to himself with a roll of his eyes.
Viewtiful Rekk (12:14:22 AM): He fakes putting on a pair of glasses. "Oh, says here she's a very rare type of 'Go To Hell' spirit."
Rakath Chaos (12:16:18 AM): "See, I try to find out what Alastor's up to, and see the energy, it was a Light Warrior spirit... but that doesn't really narrow the field that much. Well, I guess I can go look for another one and see if I can find them then."
Rakath Chaos (12:16:51 AM): "Now Jin, do you wanna work together and have a shot, or be a jackass?"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:17:34 AM): "Stand on your own feet, Amy. I'm not bailing you out of your own stupid mistake again."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:17:38 AM): Jin spins around and walks off.
Rakath Chaos (12:17:50 AM): "So that's why I take on the minion, and you beat up a student."
Y Ruler of Time (12:18:06 AM): "..." Riku blinks. "...What kinda monster is Kreis the Light Monarch?"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:18:22 AM): "That's why I crushed Alastor and you were beaten unconscious by him."
Rakath Chaos (12:19:09 AM): "So go beat up Alastor, unless this helpless wimp here was Alastor?" Amy revs up the sarcasm, "Riku, that look like Alastor?"
Y Ruler of Time (12:19:28 AM): "..."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:19:50 AM): "If you're going to prattle on so much about what just happened, perhaps I should take my next victory right now."
TheGymRat38 (12:20:15 AM): Said opponent twitches and glares at Amy from where he lays on the ground. "Calling me that when I'm still here..."
Rakath Chaos (12:20:30 AM): "Because us fighting each other in his game helps beat him?"
Rakath Chaos (12:20:36 AM): "Great plan."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:21:08 AM): "I have to get points from somewhere, and it'd shut you up."
TheGymRat38 (12:21:15 AM): Jin's former opponent struggles to his feet. "Hey, go argue somewhere else you old married couple and leave me to scrape together my dignity!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:21:35 AM): Jin glares down at him. "Shut the hell up."
Y Ruler of Time (12:21:42 AM): Riku calmly places a hand on Nameless Faceless Storyless Defeated Opponent and shoves him out of the way.
TheGymRat38 (12:21:53 AM): "Gah!" K'shoved.
TheGymRat38 (12:22:19 AM): He grumbles and begins to wander away. "Always treated like I'm a nameless character in somebody else's story...freaking story of my life..."
TheGymRat38 (12:23:15 AM): "One day I'll be the main character of my own story! That'll show 'em all!"
TheGymRat38 (12:23:42 AM): K'punched.
TheGymRat38 (12:24:25 AM): The grumbling student collapses as a muscle-bound duelist in a sleeveless Red coat saunters forward. "Zyahahahahaha, what a wimp!"
Y Ruler of Time (12:25:23 AM): "...Quince..." Riku mutters. The lion takes a breath...and ROARS less than five feet from Amy and Jin.
Rakath Chaos (12:25:31 AM): Amy looks over to Riku, "Kreis, its Light something... I couldn't keep those eyes open while dueling... he could be a warrior spirit."
Rakath Chaos (12:26:12 AM): Amy hears the Roar, "What's that Lassie, another of those creatures?" Amy chants out a spell and her eyes change color.
TheGymRat38 (12:26:23 AM): Thestalos perks up. "Kreis the Light Monarch you say? Zyahahaha, I know that monster!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:27:23 AM): "!" Jin spins around and sees the monster. "...Hrmph."
TheGymRat38 (12:27:46 AM): The monarch cracks his knuckles and moves forward, eyeing the Botanical Lion. "What an interesting scene we have here, zyahahahaha!"
Rakath Chaos (12:28:33 AM): "Quince, you sniffin' what I'm seein'?" Amy asks the Lio.
Viewtiful Rekk (12:28:46 AM): "...Kreis...." Jin frowns. "And such an obvious aura of fire....Thestalos, then."
Y Ruler of Time (12:29:55 AM): "...He summoned a bunch'a Monarchs?"
Rakath Chaos (12:30:14 AM): "Interesting choice..."
TheGymRat38 (12:30:14 AM): Thestalos smirks and looks at each of them in turn. "Zyahahahahaha, which one of you can point me towards a certain duelist...I'm looking fer someone!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:30:15 AM): "...He doesn't have the Duel Energy to manage that."
Rakath Chaos (12:30:26 AM): "He took a bunch from those Belts."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:30:36 AM): Jin frowns. "Still..."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:30:50 AM): "Seven powerful level six monsters..."
Rakath Chaos (12:31:14 AM): "So far a bunch of the duelists with belts weren't lightweights."
Y Ruler of Time (12:31:30 AM): "An' who're ya lookin' for, hothead?" Riku ignores the bickering couple. Again.
Rakath Chaos (12:31:31 AM): "Jinny, Six of them are level Six."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:32:10 AM): Jin looks unamused. "Stop splitting hairs."
TheGymRat38 (12:32:26 AM): "Zyahahaha, she's right, Zaborg's a level five!"
TheGymRat38 (12:32:43 AM): He scratches his head for a moment. "Looking for a finkle-something I s'pose..."
Y Ruler of Time (12:32:48 AM): Riku facepalms and lets out a long sigh. 'Why me...?'
Rakath Chaos (12:32:52 AM): Amy mumbles, "You got enough of those as is..."
Y Ruler of Time (12:33:12 AM): "...Finkle-something?"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:34:57 AM): Jin smirks. "Perhaps I know."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:35:09 AM): "Thing is, you're an ally of my enemy. I have no duty to you."
TheGymRat38 (12:36:07 AM): "Who gives a crap, in a tournament, everybody is an enemy and nobody is an ally, don't you know that?"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:36:17 AM): Jin smirks.
Viewtiful Rekk (12:36:26 AM): "Well said, for someone who speaks so obnoxiously."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:38:08 AM): "Then, you should know where this goes."
TheGymRat38 (12:38:35 AM): "Obnoxiously? Nothing I say is obnoxious, zyahahahahha!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:38:47 AM): "That laugh is very obnoxious."
Rakath Chaos (12:38:57 AM): "Doesn't matter what you say... your voice covers the obnoxious aspect."
Rakath Chaos (12:39:12 AM): "Like Jinderella's attitude."
TheGymRat38 (12:40:03 AM): Thestalos looks at Jin. "Jinderella? Zyahahahah, what a sissy name!"
TheGymRat38 (12:40:25 AM): "And my laugh is perfectly normal!"
TheGymRat38 (12:40:46 AM): "I'm a normal human being of course, zyahahahahhaha!"
TheGymRat38 (12:40:59 AM): Trees behind him burst into flame and burn to cinders.
Viewtiful Rekk (12:41:07 AM): Jin holds up a finger and shoots a very thin bolt of white energy at Thestalos. "Don't mock me, Monarch."
Rakath Chaos (12:41:20 AM): "You're spiritual energy is pretty close to the purest of fires ever... You're not human."
Y Ruler of Time (12:41:22 AM): "..." Riku reaches out and grabs Thestalos' collar.
TheGymRat38 (12:42:11 AM): The bolt of white energy dissipates as Thestalos holds up a hand and...squashes it.
TheGymRat38 (12:42:28 AM): He narrows his eyes at Riku. "What do you want kiddo?"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:42:36 AM): "...Let go of it, Riku."
TheGymRat38 (12:42:57 AM): "I'm a he, not an it!"
Y Ruler of Time (12:43:07 AM): Riku glares at Thestalos fiercely, and motions slowly to the ashes. "Don't. Do. That." He hisses/
TheGymRat38 (12:43:31 AM): "Oh? Do what? Burn some trees? Zyahahahhaha! I can burn whatever I want, I'm the essence of fire itself!"
TheGymRat38 (12:43:35 AM): More trees erupt into flames.
TheGymRat38 (12:43:47 AM): "The totally human essence of fire of course! Zyahahahaha!"
Rakath Chaos (12:44:16 AM): "...See, Riku, why did you say something about the others being weird, you jinxed the whole thing now."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:44:37 AM): "...Riku, he's a pyrokinetic, get away from him!"
TheGymRat38 (12:44:37 AM): "The truth is..."
TheGymRat38 (12:44:51 AM): He dissipates into flame and reforms a few feet away.
TheGymRat38 (12:45:14 AM): "I ate the Mera Mera no Mi! Thus explaining why I can control fire! Zyahahahahaha!"
TheGymRat38 (12:45:26 AM): Apparently Thestalos has seen too much television.
Viewtiful Rekk (12:45:31 AM): "...Ugh." Palm, meet face.
Rakath Chaos (12:46:01 AM): "Couldn't he of pulled from a GOOD series?" Amy shakes her head at the stupidity of this Monarch.
TheGymRat38 (12:46:38 AM): "Series? So that wasn't a historical text? Zyahahaha, what a mistake I made!"
Y Ruler of Time (12:46:43 AM): "...You...you..." Riku's arms tremble, and he holds up his Duel Disk. "COME HERE YOU BASTARD, I'M GONNA KICK YOUR ASS!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:47:09 AM): ....So Riku's a tree-hugger. Guess that's to be expected.
TheGymRat38 (12:47:34 AM): Thestalos eyes Riku and smirks broadly. "Zyahahaha, what fun! Prepare yourself tree-loving sissy bastard, I'm going to burn you to cinders!"
Y Ruler of Time (12:48:07 AM): 'They're dead...they're dead...they're dead...'
TheGymRat38 (12:48:50 AM): The monarch holds up his right arm, palm out, aimed at Riku.
Rakath Chaos (12:48:58 AM): Amy puts her hands behind her back, mumbling to herself while her Halo forms.
Y Ruler of Time (12:48:59 AM): 'I know, they're dead...Quince, I...' he pauses, and looks over his shoulder at the moaning lion. 'I'm sorry...'
TheGymRat38 (12:49:04 AM): "Grand Fireball!"
TheGymRat38 (12:49:22 AM): A fireball that size of a beachball erupts from his palm and shoots towards Riku.
Rakath Chaos (12:50:01 AM): Amy tossed out her Halo, into the path, "Riku, behind this!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:50:21 AM): Jin starts to move forward, but stops when Amy throws her Halo. "..."
Y Ruler of Time (12:50:54 AM): Riku looks forward, and his eyes widen as the fireball shoots towards him, before the Halo gets in the way.
Viewtiful Rekk (12:51:59 AM): "Tch." Jin shoots another bolt, this time at Thestalos's head. "I'm the one with the info you want. Don't target people who can't defend themselves."
TheGymRat38 (12:54:00 AM): Thestalos shifts his head slightly out of the way so the bolt passes right by him. "If that's the extent of your fighting ability you're a waste of my time."
TheGymRat38 (12:54:13 AM): "But quite frankly at this point I don't care if any of you have the information I want!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:54:35 AM): "I wouldn't waste my full extent on you."
TheGymRat38 (12:54:46 AM): "I'm going to burn all three of you to ash! Zyahahahaha!"
TheGymRat38 (12:55:00 AM): He blinks and then frowns. "Oh that's right...I'm not allowed to kill anybody. What a waste..."
Y Ruler of Time (12:55:12 AM): "..."
TheGymRat38 (12:56:48 AM): "Still, that doesn't prevent me from beating all three of you into the ground! Zyahahahahaha!"
TheGymRat38 (12:57:17 AM): Three fireballs of equal size to the previous one appear above his head, each one aimed at a different duelist.
TheGymRat38 (12:57:22 AM): "Triple Grand Fireball!"
Viewtiful Rekk (12:57:36 AM): "As if I'd let you do that."
Viewtiful Rekk (12:58:31 AM): Jin plants both feet firmly to the ground, and closes the distance between himself and Thestalos instantly. He pulls out his short sword, covered in a white aura, and thrusts it at the monarch's chest.
Rakath Chaos (12:59:09 AM): Amy Wingbeat'd out of the way of the fireball.
TheGymRat38 (12:59:24 AM): A hand closes on the sword...except now the hand is significantly larger and covered in metal.
TheGymRat38 (12:59:41 AM): "Zyahahahahaha! A sword won't work on me shitty Jinderella sissy!"
TheGymRat38 (1:00:02 AM): Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch has taken on his true form, and now stands significantly taller than any of them.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:00:20 AM): "...so, you show your true form."
Rakath Chaos (1:00:53 AM): Amy attempts to transform, glows slightly, and nothing. She tries again, still nothing.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:01:10 AM): "Then I'll just have to fight you on equal terms..."
TheGymRat38 (1:01:24 AM): "You? Fight me on equal terms? Zyahahahahaha!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:01:29 AM): Motes of energy start to gather at Jin's shoulder...but disperse almost immediately after.
TheGymRat38 (1:01:45 AM): "Nobody equals me!"
TheGymRat38 (1:02:00 AM): A massive metal-covered fist comes hurtling at Jin's face.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:02:04 AM): "What the?!" His eyes widen. SHIT! I spent too much of my energy dueling...I don't have enough left to form the Wing!
Viewtiful Rekk (1:02:27 AM): "Nngh!" Jin is stricken hard and flies backwards.
Rakath Chaos (1:02:35 AM): "I'm outta energy due to this stupid band... I couldn't do a full transform now... Damnit."
TheGymRat38 (1:03:25 AM): "No play time for you fools! I'll finish it in one blow!"
Rakath Chaos (1:03:42 AM): Amy stretches out a hand, her Halo returning to her in a blink.
TheGymRat38 (1:03:44 AM): He raises his left arm above his head...and a fireball about half the size of the Obelisk Blue dorm roars into existence.
Y Ruler of Time (1:03:47 AM): "HEY!" Riku stands up.
TheGymRat38 (1:03:59 AM): "Ultimate Fireball..."
Y Ruler of Time (1:04:01 AM): "HANG ON A SEC!"
TheGymRat38 (1:04:10 AM): "FLAME...."
TheGymRat38 (1:04:27 AM): "GENOCIDE!"
TheGymRat38 (1:04:51 AM): The fireball begins to descend towards the ground and Thestalos, immune to its heat, merely laughs. "Zyahahahahaha!"
TheGymRat38 (1:06:52 AM): The obscenely large fireball crashes into the ground and fire erupts into the sky, a pillar taller than the dorm itself.
TheGymRat38 (1:07:31 AM): Thestalos stands at the epicenter, cracking his neck in satisfaction.
TheGymRat38 (1:07:44 AM): "Zyahahaha, the victory belongs to me!"
TheGymRat38 (1:08:24 AM): The smoke dissipates...revealing that the ground is slightly smoky, and the three duelists are...intact?
TheGymRat38 (1:08:38 AM): They are burnt and perhaps have smoke in their lungs, but nevertheless they are alive.
TheGymRat38 (1:08:49 AM): "Zyahaha...what the hell? What gives? My Flame Genocide never fails!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:08:58 AM): "..." Jin looks around. "Ugh. If I'm stuck with you three still, this must be hell."
Rakath Chaos (1:09:12 AM): "Hey, what did Riku ever do to you?"
TheGymRat38 (1:09:20 AM): The giant monarch taps a metal finger against his chin...and then bursts out laughing.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:09:21 AM): He sighs and sits down. "It's mostly just you."
TheGymRat38 (1:09:25 AM): "Zyahahahaha! So that's it!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:09:47 AM): "Knew I should've been nicer to Jo...probably shouldn't have swore as much either."
TheGymRat38 (1:10:23 AM): "Be lucky my binding prevents me from disobeying orders! Even when I willed it, my body wouldn't create a flame hot enough to create a lethal effect!"
TheGymRat38 (1:10:38 AM): He shrugs, seemingly unconcerned.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:10:46 AM): "..."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:10:57 AM): "So all that setup...and you didn't even kill us?"
TheGymRat38 (1:11:08 AM): "Hey, shut up! Its not my fault!"
Y Ruler of Time (1:11:08 AM): "..." Riku falls to his knees and clutches his head in sudden agony. 'I...can feel...Quince's sorrow...'
Viewtiful Rekk (1:11:15 AM): "IT IS YOUR FAULT!"
TheGymRat38 (1:11:36 AM): "SO WHAT?! WHAT YA GONNA DO ABOUT IT YA SHITTY JINDERELLA SISSY?!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:11:51 AM): "I'M GONNA KICK YOUR ASS!" His Duel Disk activates.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:12:02 AM): "...ugh...speaking in such an uncivilized manner..."
TheGymRat38 (1:12:16 AM): And Jin promptly has a giant foot come hurtling at his gut.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:13:42 AM): "Unnngh!" Jin is kicked and slides backwards, but manages to stop himself from falling. "Tch...I see your game now..."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:14:11 AM): "You use the drainage of these Dis-Belts to weaken those of us who could fight back against you, and then finish us off!"
TheGymRat38 (1:14:25 AM): "I ain't in the mood to play yer stupid card game! Ya got me riled up, and when that happens I ain't gonna hold back!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:14:29 AM): "Suitably cowardly for a dog like Donovan..."
Y Ruler of Time (1:15:23 AM): "Shut. Up." Riku stands, and glares at Thestalos with a look that might as well have "pissed off" written on it.
TheGymRat38 (1:15:29 AM): He holds up his left hand and opens it, revealing thirty or forty tiny little motes of white flame. "Fire Kill Technique-Thousand Fireflies!"
kwikkidus (1:15:34 AM): "Hem-hem." Small clearing of the throat. "If I may inquire, who just blew up the yard?"
Rakath Chaos (1:16:01 AM): "The big firey Monarch monster." Amy points at Thestalos, still in Duel spirit form.
TheGymRat38 (1:16:05 AM): All of the tiny flames go shooting towards Jin, at the same time as Thestalos hears the 'hem-hem'.
TheGymRat38 (1:16:36 AM): Thestalos tilts his head to the side. "Oh? Another shitty bastard has arrived?"
kwikkidus (1:16:51 AM): "I believe you owe the school an apology."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:17:06 AM): Jin disappears from behind the flames, and appears again in the same spot. "Ugh. The Hellnurse."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:17:12 AM): "My nightmare is officially complete."
TheGymRat38 (1:17:24 AM): "Zyahahahaha, I ain't apologizing for nothing!"
Rakath Chaos (1:17:42 AM): Amy walks over to Riku, "Hey, Flowerchild, can you do me a favor?"
TheGymRat38 (1:17:52 AM): He opens both fists, and even more flames appear. "Fire Kill Technique-Ten Thousand Fireflies!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:17:58 AM): Jin spins around. "He's not dueling me. I'm not wasting my time with this fight anymore."
TheGymRat38 (1:18:20 AM): He unleashes them at Zaniah and Jin. Despite the fact taht there are not ten thousand of them.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:18:21 AM): "You can deal with him, Hellnurse. I'll get what I want from one of the other six." With that, he walks off.
Y Ruler of Time (1:18:32 AM): "Piss off," he mutters, and walks over to pick up a relatively large rock.
TheGymRat38 (1:18:50 AM): "Zyahahahaha, you can't run shitty Jinderella sissy!"
Rakath Chaos (1:18:57 AM): "Oh, okay, I'll just collapse here then..." Amy falls over from overexertion.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:19:14 AM): Jin merely uses the same technique again to dodge them, and continues leaving.
kwikkidus (1:19:36 AM): "I see...." She pulls out a scalpel, before extending a hand. An orange barrier appears, blunting the flames entirely. "Alastor sent you, then?"
Y Ruler of Time (1:20:07 AM): "..." Riku looks between Zaniah and Thestalos, then back at Amy, then down at the...rock.
TheGymRat38 (1:20:10 AM): "I wasn't sent by anybody shitty scalpel jockey! I'm the essence of fire itself, Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch! And who the hell are you?"
kwikkidus (1:20:39 AM): Glare. "I am Zaniah Melancholy, and if you know what is best for you you will surrender now."
Y Ruler of Time (1:20:45 AM): "...I can't do anything, can I?" He sighs, and drops the rock, before walking back to Amy.
TheGymRat38 (1:21:21 AM): "Zaniah Melancholy? That makes you the school's nurse and the head of one of these dorms don't it?"
kwikkidus (1:22:19 AM): "Congratulations. You have just made your first insightful statement all day."
Rakath Chaos (1:22:39 AM): Amy sighs, "This is when the ref 10 counts me as useless..." Amy's halo and eyes fade, her eyes back to normal and her halo gone. "None of us are exactly useful here right now..."
TheGymRat38 (1:22:52 AM): "What a shame...I'm not allowed to fight or duel you..."
TheGymRat38 (1:23:19 AM): "Zyahahahahaha! But just wait! When this tournament ends and all the duelists have fallen, I'll be in control of the item that gives me form in this realm!"
kwikkidus (1:23:29 AM): "Indeed it is a shame... I am under no such compulsion." That scalpel glints in a very unfriendly way. "I recommend you run now."
Y Ruler of Time (1:23:38 AM): Riku pulls Amy up from her prone position. "You're not gonna make me carry you, are ya?"
TheGymRat38 (1:23:42 AM): "When that time comes, I'll be sure to use my Fire Genocide technique at full power to annihilate this entire island!"
Rakath Chaos (1:24:13 AM): "I can walk, just don't ask for straight lines or fast movement..."
TheGymRat38 (1:24:23 AM): "Zyahahahaha! Until then, just wait with baited breath for your hellish demise! Sayonara shitty scalpel jockey and the rest of you shitty bastards!"
TheGymRat38 (1:24:44 AM): Flames erupts all around him, completely engulfing him from view.
TheGymRat38 (1:24:51 AM): And when the fire dies, he is nowhere to be seen.
Y Ruler of Time (1:25:34 AM): "Good enough..." he pulls Amy to her feet, and lets her lean on him if needed. Though the whole time, he's staring pointedly at the burnt ground.
Rakath Chaos (1:26:01 AM): Amy stands, but she's putting a fair deal of weight on Riku she probably couldn't stand without him right now. "Sorry about the plants... I'd of done more but my defenses aren't even that good..."
kwikkidus (1:26:03 AM): With a nod, she heads over to Jin. "Get them inside, Riku. They will be fine, they are simply tired."
Y Ruler of Time (1:27:21 AM): "Like I heard the American said, fuck off," he begins guiding Amy to the Yellow dorms.
kwikkidus (1:28:57 AM): "Of course. Next time I will simply let you burn to death." With a slight smirk, she decides against the pursuit, heading back indoors. "Oh, and... this tournament is very illegal. If you are going to compete, do not get caught."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:29:04 AM): Jin shoots a half-glance to the nurse and continues walking. "What?"
kwikkidus (1:31:02 AM): "Oh. I simply wished to speak to you about the decision regarding your punishment. It can wait, for a time."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:31:21 AM): "..." Jin sighs and shakes his head.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:31:38 AM): "You are, without a doubt, the worst excuse for a teacher I have ever seen."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:31:57 AM): "If you don't have anything important to say, get the hell out of my face."
Y Ruler of Time (1:32:48 AM): Riku pauses. "...Amy, I'm sorry, but...'Ve gotta stop for a bit. Sit down. Think. Stuff like that."
Rakath Chaos (1:33:30 AM): "Its fine, I can rest inside, outside, whatever..." Amy is half asleep sounding.
kwikkidus (1:34:58 AM): "Very well. If you are forced to fight someone when you are at the edge of your stamina, the proper strategy is to destroy them immediately, with what remains of your energy."
kwikkidus (1:35:15 AM): "You cannot expect to win a marathon after already running a sprint, after all."
Y Ruler of Time (1:35:16 AM): "Thanks," he walks them closer to the forest before sitting, and props his arms on his knees and bows his head.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:36:46 AM): "...so you're saying I should've attempted to kill the Monarch."
Rakath Chaos (1:37:05 AM): "Hey... like I got a choice..." Amy leans against the tree.
kwikkidus (1:38:18 AM): "Oh no. You can not kill a duel spirit in this realm that easily. Most likely, you would simply shock it enough to force it back to its own world, or else have broken the charm it just spoke of."
Y Ruler of Time (1:39:05 AM): "The thanks is for guardin' me," Riku mutters, wiping a hand across his face. "That's twice I owe you. I was just...distracted at the time."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:40:27 AM): "...If I had used a technique powerful enough to do that, Riku and Amy would've been at risk."
kwikkidus (1:41:18 AM): "In not using it, all three of you should have died. I -did- see the fireball."
Rakath Chaos (1:41:38 AM): "He got to you, he's exactly the last thing you wanted to see..." Amy has her eyes closed, she looks almost asleep.
Rakath Chaos (1:41:40 AM): "I wouldn't guard you if there wasn't something in it for me... And I'd rather you not die in a fire, you're interesting and fun."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:41:45 AM): "Donovan ordered the Monarchs not to kill. Our lives were never at risk."
kwikkidus (1:42:36 AM): "Next time, they might be. If you do not improve, you will be charred into cinders and not even I will be able to bail you out."
kwikkidus (1:42:40 AM): "I recommend you get to work on that."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:42:58 AM): "I never wanted or needed you to bail me out."
kwikkidus (1:44:04 AM): "Hmm." For his effort, Jin gets a condescending pat on the head. "It was a valiant effort, nonetheless. Do not forget next time, mm?"
Y Ruler of Time (1:44:08 AM): "Mn...Um...that Wingweaver...partner of yours...tell me," he says, unsteadily, desperate to ask but hesitant at the same time.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:44:18 AM): Jin smacks her hand away.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:44:30 AM): "...don't touch me." He mutters, and walks off.
Y Ruler of Time (1:44:33 AM): "Has she ever felt...enough despair...that it directly affected you?"
Rakath Chaos (1:45:21 AM): "...we're not fully bonded. We have to work at mental links still..." Amy said, kinda embarrassed. "Its why I couldn't fight, my own energy and her's aren't that bound. Its part of her coddling me."
kwikkidus (1:45:43 AM): "Hah..." She heads back on inside.
Y Ruler of Time (1:46:37 AM): "...I see...Don't worry about it then, forget I asked."
Rakath Chaos (1:46:59 AM): "She tells me that when we are bound, it'll happen..."
Rakath Chaos (1:47:07 AM): "But that isn't why we're not bound perfectly yet."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:49:24 AM): Jin lets out a long sigh. "This is all so idiotic...." He mutters as he pulls out his PDA.
Y Ruler of Time (1:49:55 AM): Riku stays quiet for a moment. But, not willing to get up and continue quite yet, he decides to continue the conversation. "So what's the reason?"
Rakath Chaos (1:50:55 AM): "I don't wanna be a kid for the next 40 years..." Amy looks down, "I don't wanna be treated as some no-nothing brat by everyone elses eyes...."
Y Ruler of Time (1:54:52 AM): "I can understand that decision. Though, not for the same reason. I don't think I could stand watchin' everything around me grow old an' die."
Rakath Chaos (1:57:26 AM): "I try not to think about it... but it does cross my mind. I know that I'll outlive all of you..."
Rakath Chaos (1:57:27 AM): Amy smiles, "If I think about it too much I'll probably go find a cave to live the next 1200 years in without worrying about losing people."
Y Ruler of Time (2:01:13 AM): "..." Riku wipes an arm across his face. The sleeve comes away wet, and he stands up. "We should get back."
Rakath Chaos (2:02:40 AM): "Yeah..." Amy gets up, less wobbly then before. But still almost falls over in just standing up.
Y Ruler of Time (2:04:49 AM): Riku places a hand on Amy's shoulder to steady her, and looks up finally, revealing several red streaks on his face starting down from his eyes.
Y Ruler of Time (2:05:27 AM): "Sorry, should've done that first."

Of Regulations, Champagne Cocktails and Saratoga Dreams
Saratoga Springs is a place of dreams. I know. I met my wife there the day Spit Curl won the Alabama Stakes.
We were married on the closest corresponding dark Tuesday three years later. The recently departed Judge Larry LaBelle performed the ceremony at The Big Red Spring on the grounds of Saratoga Race Course.
Several media members missed the ceremony, though only steps away in the press box. That was the day the New York State Racing and Wagering Board announced that Lashkari's Breeders' Cup positive for etorphine, elephant juice, was overturned.
It can happen if your name is the Aga Kahn, but not if it's Rick Dutrow.
At the July 16, meeting of the New York State Gaming Commission, formerly the NYSRWB, the commission denied Dutrow's appeal to revisit the 10-year ban handed down by the NYSRWB.
Also at that meeting, the NYSGC unanimously approved passage of a regulation proposed by Association of Racing Commissioners International to support the Racing Medication and Testing Consortium's model rule that it is supposed to mimic the World Anti-Doping Agency rule. The exception is Thoroughbred racing's ever-present elephant in the room – Lasix.
The ARCI promoted model rule of the RMTC, adopted by NYSGC was lauded as a wide-ranging one that will propel Thoroughbred racing forward, but it has a huge loophole. The original anti-doping rules prohibits Lasix.
However, the rule adopted by the NYSGC makes an exemption for use of Lasix.
ARCI is a not-for-profit trade association with no regulatory authority. Its members individually possess regulatory authority within their jurisdictions. Ron Ochrym, Director of the Division of Horse Racing for the NYSGC, is the ARCI member representing New York. He is solely responsible for recommending the passage of this hollowed-out regulation.
Major League Baseball recently suspended Robinson Cano when he tested positive for Lasix. MLB considers Lasix to be a performance enhancing drug and, in accordance with WADA and the United States Anti-Doping Agency, a masking agent. Thoroughbred horseracing's leaders say it is only for bleeders. Wink-wink.
Major League sports in the US also winked at PEDs until outside pressure became too great and forced change. The time is now for Thoroughbred racing to be pressured to do the same.
At the heart of USADA's program is out of competition testing. Nearly two-thirds of USADA's drug tests are out of competition. In the Thoroughbred industry, it's about 1 percent.
Why omit Lasix and limit out of competition testing? Why have there been very few positive OCC tests? WADA and USADA are serious about catching cheaters. Apparently, the Thoroughbred industry is not as enthusiastic about cleaning up its act and the damaging message it sends.
A horse that bleeds is unsound for racing purposes and deserves the time necessary for it to heal. Lasix allows them to do what they should not be asked to do. Worse, Lasix also covers up many other drugs.
Thoroughbred veterinarians as a group are conspicuously quiet on the subject. One would posit that the lack of comment indicates complicity. One exception is Dr. Rick Arthur, equine medical director at UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine assigned full time to the California Horse Racing Board.
Arthur accused horsemen of voicing objections strictly as a way to avoid implementing out of competition testing at a meeting of the CHRB on June 21. In part, his written statement: "In reality, horse racing does not have a robust anti-doping program. And this should be clear to everyone: Races are won in training. That is true in human sport; it is true in horse racing. Just as in human sport, we need to pay more attention to PEDs being used in training and we can only do that by OOCT."
Ed Martin, president of the ARCI, appeared to perjure himself before the House of Representatives subcommittee on June 22, when he testified at the hearing for H.R. 2651, the Horseracing Integrity Act. Martin said that drug regulations are uniform throughout all racing jurisdictions in the US.
Everyone, including Martin, knows that's not true. Ask Graham Motion about that. Ask Bill Mott about testing procedures.
Martin was quickly called out by those in the industry he is supposed to represent. Most vocal was Coalition for Horse Racing Integrity, which, in a lengthy letter to Chairman Bob Latta and Ranking Member Jan Schakowsky of the Energy & Commerce Subcommittee on Digital Commerce and Consumer Protection, skillfully and comprehensively tore down Martin's assertions, one by one.
The letter, signed by Stuart Janney, Chairman of the Jockey Club and Craig Favel, president of Breeders' Cup Ltd., was complete with testimonial evidence of studies that prove Lasix is unnecessary for most bleeders. It also contained charts indicating the different medication regulations and withdrawal times from each of the 33 states that currently govern live Thoroughbred racing.
Listed below are three significant points included in the letter.
• "There is no association between EIPH (bleeding) grades 0, 1, 2 and 3 and long-term racing performance of Thoroughbred racehorses" (Sullivan, S. L., Anderson, G. A., Morley, P. S., & Hinchcliff, K. W., 2014).
• In a study of 152 Thoroughbreds, two of them had an EIPH score of four, the most severe grade. In other words, 150 of 152 horses had EIPH scores of three or below, supporting the previous point that the vast majority of horses race and enjoy long and productive careers on the racetrack without Lasix (Hinchcliff, K. W., Morley, P. S., & Guthrie, A. J., 2009).
• Horses that received Lasix ran 3 to 5.5 lengths faster than horses that did not (Gross D.K., Morley P.S., Hinchcliff K.W., & Wittum T.E., 1999).
Why adopt such a rule? It is a divertive attempt by RMTC, ARCI and the NYSGC to appear to have done something, when, in fact, it has exposed these groups for putting a spin on what should be real regulation and not capitulation to horsemen's groups.
In truth, Martin opposes the possibility of USADA's control because it will render meaningless ARCI and RMTC. The Jockey Club supports it because it lets those that are supposed to be stewards of this game off the hook for its inability to regulate itself.
USADA can walk into someone's abode or hotel room at 3am and test. In New York, according to Martin Panza, The Senior Vice President of Racing Operations of the New York Racing Association, a request is made of a trainer to bring a horse in to perform an out of competition test.
The trainer has 24 hours in which to comply. If the trainer does not, the horse is ruled off for six months. So the owner pays and the trainer and vet are off the hook. Besides, is that the spirit for which out of competition testing was created in the first place?
A Lasix ban will never happen because the majority of horsemen would rather train with needles instead of horsemanship. And in the end they control simulcasting, the industry's lifeblood and main source of revenue.
Just as bettors yearn for a major score, some jockeys, trainers, and vets rise early to engineer a score. My late friend and colleague, Paul Moran, always thought the barn list at Saratoga should be accompanied by a vets list.
Indeed, the name of the attending veterinarian should be listed in the official program. Indeed, they are an invaluable part of the equipment. Otherwise, why would there be a preponderance of barn changes that has become so prevalent in the modern game?
So don't let the stewards of racing off the hook just because you are having a good time at Saratoga. Racing counts on eye-candied distractions like Saratoga to keep the customer eyes off the industry's inaction. The new Coalition for Horse Racing Integrity has taken an important step in the right direction.
