This page contains Creatures sorted by type or species, such as Animals or Skulks.
Animals Edit
Animals are living creatures that are found across Istaria. Most are passive, and some can provide resources for Crafting.
Arbotus Edit
Arbotus are two legged beasts with a giant mouth, and are the larger and more dangerous relatives of the Ruxus. They eat all that they can swallow, and due to the forest habitat in which they live, they have developed bark like skin with sticks and leaves growing out of them. They also tend to swallow squirrels, which are freed upon killing an Arbotus. They are social creatures that live in herds, and if an Arbotus near another is attacked, the others will defend it and devour the attacker.
Usally Arbotus are found on the west coast of Dikaina Island, in the forest areas between Lerena and Dikaina. However, some wandered to the middle of the three islands that are west of Lerena, probably to live in peace on their own on the two small hills covered in forest. Usually no adventurers bother to go there, since you have to wade through water and it is a rather large detour.
Some may think the squirrels harass you when you kill the Arbotus. But they thank you, kind of.
- Apparently David Bowman was giving the squirrel the voice. It says: "Woohoo, I'm a freeee maaaaan! Yeehaa! I get to pick..nuts and berries and run through the forest like a good little squirrel. I'm gonna have a life now, boy."
Note that squirrels are very rare drops when harvesting. You might kill 50 Arbotus (can be Small, Regular or Tremendous) before yielding a handful of squirrels.
Beetles Edit
Six-legged with segmented bodies, a thick exoskeleton, and a pair of wings that allows them to hover, Beetles are one of the most hardy creatures in Istaria, able to survive in a variety of climates, some extremely inhospitable to life. They have a pair of mandibles which are used to eat or grasp their prey and they have also been known to hover towards their prey, knocking them down and attempting to crush them.
A common sight throughout Istaria, the Loricutus Beetle, or common Istarian Beetle, has been found in nearly every environment on Istaria, from fiery volcanoes to sandy beaches to the icy frozen mountains of the distant north. Like the Gruoks, Beetles have also served as a common source of food and resources over the millennia to the many Living Races.
Crabs Edit
Flies Edit
Golems Edit
Golems are creatures comprised of the very elements themselves. They patrol crafting resource areas and attack anyone that wanders into their territory.
Some Golems can be harvested once they have been killed. Most of them deliver as much material as rich resource nodes.
Elementals Edit
Elementals are golem-like creatures that roam throughout the lands of Istaria.
Gem Golems Edit
Once defeated, Gem Golems can be quarried for gems as if they were a gemstone vein.
Metal Golems Edit
Once defeated, Metal Golems can be mined for ore as if they were an ore outcropping.
|Metal Golems
Stone Golems Edit
Once defeated, Stone Golems can be quarried for stone slabs as if they were a stone outcropping.
|Stone Golems
Gruoks Edit
Gruoks are wild animals similar in appearance to wild pigs and are often referred to as pigs or piggies. Young Gruoks are called grulets and are often grouped with Gruok sows. The higher level Gruoks tend to be very aggressive with attacks that can cause the player to Bleed. Even though Grouks resemble pigs, they're actually a type of marsupial, not a member of the Sus family.
Once dead, they can be harvested for Hide and Meat.
Mimics Edit
Mimics are creatures that resemble Treasure Chests. They are used as traps to kill unwary adventurers that believe they contain valuable treasures. If a player tries to open them, they will attack.
Oastics Edit
Ogres Edit
Ogres are a man-like race of monsters that roam with and are the larger counterpart of Pygmies.
Pygmies Edit
Pygmies are common creatures that are found roaming with Ogres, their larger counterparts.
Rift Guardians Edit
Rift Guardians are powerful deities made out of the essences of time. They inhabit spatial rifts, like the Fiery Rift and The Rift.
|Rift Guardians
Ruxus Edit
Ruxus are large, aggressive, slow-moving creatures that appear to be somewhat social.
Scorpions Edit
Scorpions were originally subterranean dwellers on the island of Drakul. Recent excavations deep into the earth across Istaria have disturbed their ancient breeding grounds and the scorpions have begun to migrate to the surface through these newly constructed tunnels and chambers. They are mostly solitary creatures, but can be found in small groups when protecting clutches of eggs. One female scorpion, a breeder, can produce well over one hundred eggs in a season. However, many of the young do not survive, as they are often eaten by their own kind or by other dangers.
These eight-legged arachnids are dangerous creatures and prey on any living things they come across. They range in size from small (less than gnome sized) to large (adult dragon sized). Scorpions have two large pincered appendages and a segmented tail that is topped with a large stinger. Most scorpions carry a venom within the stinger that results in paralyzation, allowing the beast to feast uninterrupted on its still-living prey. Scorpions come in different colors, befitting their environment. Underground they are mostly grey, black or pale. While the species found in more arid environments such as deserts are shades of brown or black.
Skulks Edit
Spiders Edit
Istarian Spiders are not the typical garden variety that can be dealt with by a quick swat. These magically enchanted creatures, found all across the lands of Istaria, are ferocious creatures with attacks that resemble spells.
Treants Edit
Treants are enchanted trees that patrol the forests of Istaria. Most are very peaceful creatures, but enraged Treants will attack on sight.
After being killed, Treants can be harvested for logs with a Tree Axe, sap with a Sap Spigot, or bark with a Harvest Knife.
Treasure Chests Edit
Treasure Chests come in many varieties, from Cedar Treasure Chests to Thornwood Treasure Chests, as well as different types of wood, metal and even stone. They require proper Keys to be opened and have a chance to drop Broken Items, Crystals, Formulas, Hoard Items, Techniques and Sacks of Coins. Caution is advised as some chests are actually Mimics, which are identified by their higher hitpoints (around the same compared to a mob at it's level). Some of the Treasure Chests are found in quests, others are unique such as the Enchanted Ancient Chest near Kalevala.
|Treasure Chests
Werewolves Edit
Werewolves are former humanoid or wolf creatures that have turned, due the Lycanthropy curse, into horrid creatures attracted by the moon. Istarian Werewolves always stay in their bestial form, and are highly vulnerable to the silver damage type.
Wisps Edit
Wisps are magical creatures that provide Essences for crafting while alive, and Tainted Essence when killed. Enriched wisps count as rich nodes for their essence.
Normal Wisps are placid with 10 health, while enraged wisps are aggressive and harder to kill.
Enraged wisps can be harvested for normal Essence once dead. Enraged wisps may also drop Vitaes, which are components for different crafting Techniques.
Withered Aegis Edit
The Withered Aegis is a powerful cadre of necromancers and evil beings bent on the utter conquest and destruction of the Living Races. They inhabit the Realm of Blight and make war on Istaria. The Withered Aegis employ a variety of foul servants to fulfill their nefarious purposes.
Aegis-Animates Edit
Aegis-Animates and Aegis Constructs are the only real forms of Withered Aegis mobs. Both of these groups are the only mobs that drop Blighted Gears.
The Aegis-Animates are living creatures that fight alongside the Withered Aegis, unlike the Aegis-Constructs, which are created by the Withered Aegis.
Fyakki Edit
Fyakki are Aegis-Animates that roam throughout the deadlands of Istaria.
Kwellen Edit
Kwellen are winged guardians of the undead that roam around the Istarian deadlands.
Maggots Edit
Vexators Edit
Vexators are inter-dimensional creatures that came from the Realm of Blight, similar to the Kwellen.
Aegis-Constructs Edit
Aegis-Constructs and Aegis-Animates are the only real forms of Withered Aegis mobs. Both of these groups are the only mobs that drop Blighted Gears.
The Aegis-Constructs are creations of the Withered Aegis, unlike the Aegis-Animates, which are living creatures that fight alongside them.
Abominations Edit
Abominations are creatures that are crafted by the Withered Aegis.
Aegrors Edit
Automatons Edit
Automatons are creatures similar to Formulatrons. They are completely resistant to Spirit based magic.
Blight Anchors Edit
Blight Anchors are magical constructs that the Withered Aegis use to gain a foothold in Istaria. They are stationary but capable of summoning their own guards to protect them.
|Blight Anchors
Mylocs Edit
Mylocs were once creatures that lived peacefully on the eastern continents at the time of the birth of the Dryad. Once these hideous monsters turned and allied with the Withered Aegis, they were eradicated by the efforts of the Gifted. They weren't heard of for centuries, but recently there have been rumors and tales of these beasts rising once again with their Queen in Dralnok's Doom.
Undead Edit
The creatures of the Undead are minions of the Withered Aegis. They serve as warriors to bring death to the living.
Blights Edit
Blights are the undead foot-soldiers of the Withered Aegis. Blight creatures inhabit most areas of Istaria.
Ghosts Edit
Ghosts are one form of undead creatures used by the Withered Aegis in Istaria. They are formed from any of the living races and are of any school, including some classes that are not available to the living races. They use the abilities of their schools and races, as well as some skills unique to the undead.
Mummies Edit
Mummies are a form of Undead creature used by the Withered Aegis in Istaria. They can be formed from any of the living races and be of any school, including some that are not available to the living races. As Mummies, they have the abilities of their school and race as well some skills unique to the undead.
Skeletons Edit
Skeletons are a form of undead creature used by the Withered Aegis in Istaria. They are formed from any of the living races and be of any school, including some that are not available to the living races. As Skeletons, they have the abilities of their school and race as well some that are unique to the undead.
Withered Scales Edit
Withered Scales were formerly living Dragons that have been slain in battle against the Withered Aegis. They have been revived after their death to serve their undead masters.
|Withered Scales
Wraiths Edit
A Wraith appears as a spectral being with no legs. It appears to be in the form of a torn cloak, with the hood as the head. Yet, it does have humanoid arms and hands, but colored in the same way as its body. It makes very ghostly and deep-throated sounds when attacked, seeming to try and yell at you in the only way it knows how. They wander either alone or with cohorts and seem to command parts of the Withered Aegis whenever they can.
Zombies Edit
Zombies are a form of Undead creature used by the Withered Aegis in Istaria. They can be formed from any of the living races and be of any school, including some that are not available to the living races. As Zombies, they have the abilities of their school and race as well some unique to the undead.
Wolves Edit
Wolves are aggressive, wild canines. They often travel in packs and are social, meaning that if a wolf is attacked, other wolves nearby will come to its defense.
Once killed, wolves can be harvested for hide.

Blame Howard's absence. Blame a schedule that had the Mavericks playing their fourth game in five nights. Dirk Nowitzki, who missed a ton of shots, said there are a ton of excuses the Mavericks could make.
They won't.
"We don't make excuses," Mavericks coach Avery Johnson said. "We don't blame anybody. We look inward. We don't look outward when something goes wrong.
"There is a lot of fight in this team."
Fight wasn't the issue.
Efficiency was.
Nowitzki struggled from the field for the second consecutive night. He hit his second field goal with 48 seconds left in the first half. He didn't hit his third until 3:22 remained in the fourth quarter.
The forward was 5-of-22 from the field for 18 points.
"I was the Bucks' sixth man," Nowitzki said.
The Mavericks may have lost, but the biggest news out of the Kohl Center last night? That's right. Doug Melvin has his mustache back!
Above, Melvin in early 2005.
Melvin in 2002.
Relax America, Doug Melvin's lost mustache has found its home back over Doug's upper lip. Dreams do come true.
Rangers consider Mesa, Looper, other bullpen help …
Dre Bly pounds Harrington in the media …
"If we'd had production on offense, in particular the quarterback position, Mooch wouldn't have been fired," Bly told the Detroit Free Press. "If Jeff Garcia hadn't gotten hurt, we wouldn't be in this position today. Mooch wouldn't have gotten fired."
Garcia missed the first five games after breaking his leg in the final preseason game. He started twice -- winning in Cleveland and losing to Chicago -- but then missed the Minnesota, Arizona and Dallas games with soreness in the leg.
"We're all at fault, but I just feel like Joey [Harrington]'s been here four years, and being the No. 3 pick in the draft, he hasn't given us anything," Bly told the paper. "He hasn't given us what the third pick in the draft should give us."

This game is confusing and maddening …
And now, an email:
Hey Bob. I was just wondering if you were ready to take back your statement about the Bears not winning their division yet? That Bears D is the real deal. The offense may suck but you dont need much O when the D only gives up 13 points a game. They remind me of the Ravens team that won the Superbowl. Just curious? Jason
What is he talking about? Let's review the November 17th blog :
In a related and yet unrelated story, I have been meaning to get this Chicago Bears thought on the record, and since we so rarely bring them up, now is as good a time as any:
The Bears will not win the NFC North.
Here are the current standings:
Chicago 6-3
Minnesota 4-5
Detroit 4-5
Green Bay 2-7
Look, I realize I am going out on a limb, because everyone behind the Bears really suck. But, I really feel this choke happening. Check out the final 7 games for the Bears starting this week:
Nov 20 H Carolina
Nov 27 A Tampa Bay
Dec 4 H Green Bay
Dec 11 A Pittsburgh
Dec 18 H Atlanta
Dec 25 A Green Bay
Jan 1 A Minnesota
This is the Bears without a QB or a RB. I know their defense is good, but they might be 8-8. I hate to say this, but I think the Vikings catch them on the last week of the season. And trust me, the Packers will protect their house on Christmas Day. I will be there to make sure of that.
So, I am calling it. Bears miss the playoffs despite having a 2 game lead today.
So Jason wants to know if I want a do-over after they have beaten Carolina and Tampa Bay. It looks like I may need one, but I still contend we will see them exposed soon enough. You must have an offense, I swear. And they don't. We shall see. I would just like to ask their great defense not to hurt Favre Sunday.
Mix Sports and Church? …maybe not a great idea…
You can imagine my surprise when I got these emails this morning:
Dan, last night at the Rolling Stone concert, Delbert McClinton was the opening act. He gave you guys some pub from the stage about midway through his show. "Hi, I'm Delbert McClinton and I never listen to Bob and Dan on BAD Radio on the Ticket...NEVER, EVER!!" Congratulations.
Went to the RS Concert tonight. Instead of Merle Haggard as the opener it was the GREAT Delbert McClinton. In between songs one time he actually said randomly (to me anyway) no BS, he said, "Hi! I'm Delbert McClinton and I never listen to BaD radio on the Ticket. Never!. There was a cheer from the crowd that was there then! Is there a story there or just shocking. If not, get him on the air, but I understand Gribble is your producer so…………….
Congrats Bucks!
Stay hard!
I have always enjoyed ol' Delbert. But who would have guessed?

The duplicate block and item ids are a real pain, so I wrote this Perl script to generate a report on them.
It says how many it found for each config file and if any are duplicates and then prints a report of all ids found.
You have to run it from your %APPDATA% folder or change the $startDir variable.
Perl is a scripting language. You will need to install Perl for it to work. Just search for Active Perl download.
Just copy the source program code into WordPad and save it as minecraft_find_ids.pl

Viola species
Plants of Home and Garden, Herbs
Seeds sown lightly covered spring, as soon as soil can be worked, or in fall; some species require stratification or fall-sowing. Dark required for germination, which is often irregular. Deeply-draining rich soil, sun to part shade, keep cool and moist. The perennial forms are typically hardy zones 4-8, though some, like Viola labradorica, the Labrador violet, are hardy to zone 2
Perennials may also be divided in spring, or grown from basal cuttings taken in spring. Rhizome cuttings may be taken in early spring, or plantlets on runners may be divided off once rooted. May naturalize in lawns
Viola odorata, the sweet, English or garden violet, hardy to zone 5, requires stratification

The Hotel Armadores de Santander (which means 'Shipowners of Santander') overlooks the port of Havana. The building's façade, with its stone reliefs of the coat of arms of Santander surrounded by maritime motifs, is wonderfully evocative of the city's seagoing past.
Havana's entire raison to be, was the excellence of its natural harbour and its strategic position within the Spanish Empire in the Americas. Nowhere is this easier to appreciate than from a balcony of the Armadores de Santander. The building was commissioned by Don José Cabrero Mier, a native of that city. Many important Havana shipowners maintained offices there, notably Don Ramón Herrera y Sancibrián, Count of Mortera, who after beginning his career as a weaver in the Spanish town of Mortera was driven by poverty to emigrate and try his luck in Cuba. Here he became a hugely successful banker and shipowner. During the Cuban Wars of Independence Don Ramón dedicated a part of his fleet to the service of the Spanish crown, for which he was rewarded with his title.
The Hotel Armadores de Santander was restored and is run by the Office of the City Historian of Havana, so all its profits are reinvested in the restoration of the city's historical centre. Anyone keen on maritime history and the comings and goings of ships will love it. From early morning until late at night boats pass to and fro in front of the hotel and the views of the twinkling harbour lights in the evening, and the rising sun gleaming on the smooth water before the morning breeze gets up, are impossibly romantic.

Many of them have lovely marble balconies overlooking the harbour and original tiled floors. The bathrooms are large with attractive blue and white tiling and wonderfully generous 30s-style basins. A few of the room are split-level with a cosy sitting room below and a bedroom area above next to the original beams of the madly high ceilings. 20 of the rooms are twin bedded and the other 10 have matrimonial beds.

Anyone that leaves garbage in a parking lot should be banned for life.
It is a sad state of affairs when local government considers ordinances because a retailer (RV park manager Ken Warren ) wants the trade that WalMart has. His request is no more appropriate than WalMart asking him to not sell anything that they offer in their store.
"The city of St. Albert is considering placing limits on the length of time recreational vehicles can park overnight at the local Wal-Mart store.
I've always maintained that the people who are spending the night in the WalMart parking lot would NOT be staying in a local campground so WalMart is not taking business away from the campgrounds. Outlawing parking at WalMart doesn't move business to the campgrounds in that town, it moves business to WalMarts in other cities.
So one RV park manager "would like to have the trade"...How many campers a week does he think he might be missing that requires a law just for him "to have the trade"?
Also limit it to "Between the hours of 2 and 3 am" or some such, so as to allow the guy who drives his car to the wal-mart, "FOR SALE" sign in window. to buy a gallon of milk.

Penguins beat Caps for second straight night
Fleury stops 20 shots in 3rd, earns 5th shutout of season
Marc-Andre Fleury made 32 saves for his fifth shutout of the season, leading the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 2-0 victory over the Washington Capitals on Tuesday night.
Jussi Jokinen and Sidney Crosby scored for the Penguins, who swept the teams' home-and-series one night after beating the Capitals 3-2 in Washington. Pittsburgh has won three in a row and picked up at least a point in eight of its last 10 games.
The Penguins have also beaten their longtime rivals a franchise-record eight straight times.
Jaroslav Halak stopped 32 shots in his third start for Washington. Alexander Ovechkin was held without a point for the fourth consecutive game as the Capitals lost for the fourth time in their last five.
Fleury tied his career high for shutouts in a season while winning his sixth straight start against the Capitals, whom the Penguins swept the season series from for the second year in a row.
Pittsburgh widened its lead in the Eastern Conference to three points over the idle Boston Bruins and also increased its Metropolitan Division bulge to 16 points over the New York Rangers.
The Penguins were playing for the first time since completing their longest road trip (five games) in three years.
As good as Fleury was, Halak was almost as strong in a losing cause.
Among Halak's better saves was stopping James Neal on a partial breakaway a minute into the third period. Unlike Fleury, Halak was played both games on consecutive nights between the teams. Acquired in a trade from the Buffalo Sabres last week, Halak's first three starts with the Capitals have come over a four-day span.
Jokinen beat him at 16:41 of the first. Left unchecked by Capitals defenseman Mike Green while skating through the slot, Jokinen offered a deft re-direct of a Matt Niskanen shot from the right point for his 17th goal of the season but first since Jan. 30.
Evgeni Malkin earned the second assist on the play, extending his assists streak to five games.
Crosby scored for the second straight night against Halak, this time with a low wrist shot to the stick side with 5:48 left in the game after skating swiftly down the right wing.
Lee Stempniak had the only assist on the goal in his home debut for Penguins after he and fellow forward Marcel Goc were acquired in trade-deadline day deals last week.
Eleven minutes into the second period, the Capitals came the closest to scoring when rookie Evgeny Kuznetsov flipped a shot from just to the right of Fleury that clanged off the post before deflecting off of Fleury's left pad as he sprawled out.
Largely untested and forced to make just 12 saves through two periods, Fleury faced the brunt of the Washington onslaught during the third.
The Capitals' No.2 NHL power play was given an opportunity 8:02 into the third when Niskanen was whistled for high-sticking.
Fleury denied a wide open Mark Chimera's whacks at the puck to the left of his crease about a minute into a power play that soon was negated when Nicklas Backstrom took a high-sticking penalty of his own at 9:10 of the period.
The Capitals had sustained pressure during another power play that began with 4:08 left, but Fleury denied Troy Brouwer and Marcus Johansson in quick succession.
Washington dropped into 11th place in the Eastern Conference standings and dropped three points out of the final playoff spot.
NOTES: Fleury's shutout was the 28th of his career. ... Washington C Brooks Laich did not make the trip to Pittsburgh because he continues to be hampered by a groin injury. Laich has missed two of the past four games. ... Early Tuesday, the Capitals recalled C Casey Wellman and D Patrick Wey from their American Hockey League affiliate in Hershey. Wey, a native of a Pittsburgh suburb, was a healthy scratch. ... Before the game, Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said that D Kris Letang has been skating and working out in Pittsburgh. Letang has not played since suffering a stroke Jan. 29. He remains out indefinitely.

In the bowl of a standing electric mixer using the paddle attachment, beat the cream chese and butter on high speed until very smooth, pausing to scrape down the sides of the bowl, as necessary. Reduce the mixer speed to low, add the flour, little by little, and the salt, and process until just combined. Turn the dough out onto a slightly floured surface and knead lightly. Form the dough into a disk, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
Heat 1 teaspoon of the reserved bacon dripping in a medium nonstick skillet and, when hot, add the spinach. Cook, stirring frequently, until the spinach is wilted and has released its liquid, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the spinach to a colander to drain. When the spinach has cooled enough to handle, squeeze to release any excess water, then transfer to a cutting board and finely chop. Set aside.
Add 2 more teaspoons of the bacon drippings to the same skillet, then add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft but not browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the reserved spinach, crumbled bacon, cottage chese, salt and pepper to taste and nutmeg and mix thoroughly. Transfer to a mixing bowl and allow to cool thoroughly. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and lightly grease a baking sheet.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and, working on a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough to a thickness of about 1/8-inch thick. Using a small bowl or saucer as a guide, cut the dough into as many 5-inch circles as possible. Gather the scraps of dough together and knead lightly to reform the dough into a disk. Roll out as before and again cut as many rounds as you can. You should be able to get 10 to 12 rounds. Divide the spinach filling evenly among the dough circles. Using your fingers, lightly moisten the edges with some of the beaten egg, then fold 1 side over so that the edges meet, and press to seal. Crimp the edges using the tines of a fork and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all of the empanadas are assembled. Brush the tops of each empada with some of the beaten egg and bake uncovered until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
Serve either warm or at room temperature.

Hogan's Heroes was a band formed in World War II by a group of POWs in the prison camp Luft Stalag 13, located outside of Hammelburg, Germany. The band was actually a front for their secret espionage ring, being an excuse to get to their targets without being caught by the Germans & having to spend time in the cooler. They played a variety of musical genres & were responsible for a number of musical innovations (see below). Despite the obvious connections between their live performances & the acts of sabotage committed, Colonel Klink, the leader of the camp & the other personnel of Stalag 13 remained oblivious to their activities.
America enters the war[edit]
With the USA's entry into WWII, prison camps in Germany were starting to receive their first American prisoners. At one particular camp, an American colonel by the name of Robert Hogan came up with a brilliant idea: Instead of trying to escape, why not stay behind & sabotage the German war effort? The problem with this idea was that they needed a front for their operations so they wouldn't get caught.
The beginning of the band[edit]
After a long brainstorming session & many rejected ideas, including: a restaurant, a casino, a museum, and so on, someone came up with the idea of forming a band. To this end, Hogan recruited five other people with musical talent: Sergeant James Kinchloe (USA), Corporal Louis Lebeau (France), Cpl. Peter Newkirk (UK), Sgt. Vladimir Minsk (USSR), & Cpl. Robert "Budd" Dwyer (USA). Work also began on digging underground tunnels that connected each of the barracks, plus various facilities to aid in their operations. Among these was a recording studio.
Other preparations were taken, such as installing hidden microphones in Klink's office. Once preparations were complete, recording of their debut album began. They also started performing live & showcasing a few upcoming songs from this album. However, the band suffered a setback during this time: Minsk left the band, feeling that this job was "too dangerous", and Budd left the band because he asked the audience to "leave the room if this will offend you" before each performance, something which quite a few people took seriously.
Their first album[edit]
With no horns players, the album was delayed until they found a new horns player, Sgt. Andrew Carter. He had escaped to England earlier in the year, yet somehow returned to Stalag 13 (maybe he teleported? Who gives a crap?) This proved to be an advantage for the band because that meant they could save money by having one person playing all types of horns. Eventually; Hogan's Heroes, their debut album; was released in late 1942. It was covertly distributed among the Allied forces & the various underground resistance forces. Exactly how they managed to press so many discs & get them to the customers is unknown to this day.
Continued success[edit]
Almost immediately after the first album & accompanying singles were released, work began on their second album, Will You Be With Me? During live performances; Sgt. Hans Schultz, the leader of the guards at Stalag 13; served as their bodyguard & made sure that none of them tried to escape. As mentioned earlier, despite the obvious connections between their live performances & the destruction of many of the venues they played at, Schultz always knew nothing about this, nor did he know anything about how Hogan's Heroes managed to get booked to play at these locations.
However, being in a band was not all fun & games. Hogan & friends also had to attend to certain matters in Stalag 13, such as preventing General Burkhalter's sister, Frau Linkmeyer, from marrying Klink. Another matter of utmost seriousness was the fact that Major Hochstetter of the Gestapo was highly suspicious of Hogan's activities. However, Hogan & the rest of the gang made him look like a fool & managed to keep their operations intact.
In October 1943, Will You Be With Me? was released to tremendous acclaim from the Allied forces. By now, Hogan's Heroes were making a name for themselves, and word of their success was reaching the US continent. However, it would not be until a few years later that their records would actually be released to the American public.
Later years & decline[edit]
1944 was pretty much like any other year at Stalag 13, up until June 6. Of course, the band was working on a new album, but they were struck by a unique quandary: They had no idea what this new one would be called or what direction to go with it. Then, when the Allied forces invaded France on D-Day, it hit them: They decided to call the new album Colonel Hogan's D-Day Beach Club Band. This new album was a concept album about a group of soldiers who meet up for the first time on D-Day & decide to form a band. Unbeknownst to many, the album was an encoded story about the formation of Hogan's Heroes. Released in 1944, this album is considered by many to be the band's finest work.
However, with Allied forces closing in on Germany, it was clear that the good times couldn't last forever. In addition to this, Sgt. Kinchloe left the band for reasons unknown, so the band was under pressure to find a new bass player & finish one more album before the camp was liberated. Eventually, they recruited Sgt. Baker of the US Army & managed to record & press a few copies of their last album, Live and Let It Be, before the camp was liberated by Allied forces in April 1945.
After the war[edit]
Even after the camp was liberated, Hogan's Heroes stuck around to press a few more copies of their final album before the band broke up. After their breaking up, the band members all took normal jobs .
The camp personnel were all arrested as POWs. However, Colonel Klink had to be let go because he didn't know about the secret recording studio, which made him look incompetent. In addition, there was a lack of evidence regarding mistreatment of prisoners at Stalag 13.
Sergeant Schultz was released because he knew nothing. Nothing! General Burkhalter disappeared while in custody & his fate remains unknown today. However, there are numerous sightings of him as a band member for Elvis Presley.
As for Major Hochstetter, being a member of the Gestapo, he was tried at the Nuremberg Trials & sentenced to 1337 years in prison.
Later on, in 1949, Hogan had a re-union with Sgt. Kinchloe & Sgt. Carter. They decided to record one more album under the Hogan's Heroes name just for old times' sake. The new album was called All That and a Bag of Potato Chips. Stripped down to a 3-piece outfit, this new album was considered to be a predecessor of punk rock.
Despite their success & innovations in the field of music, and despite their records being released to the public, Hogan's Heroes became largely forgotten after the war until a few years later, when musicians discovered their works & decided to take credit for their innovations without crediting the band. Alas, poor Hogan! I knew him, Sophia.
Band Members[edit]
(NOTE: To protect their identities and keep their operations covert, the band members were credited under pseudonyms, which are in parentheses after their real names)
Colonel Robert E. Hogan, US Army Air Force (Bob Crane): Drummer, lead vocalist, founder, principal songwriter and producer for the band. Notable for being one of the few drummers to be a lead singer in their band, and probably the best of them all. A talented tactician & ladies' man, Hogan was the one who formulated all the band's secret military plans. Having gotten into the good graces of Klink & Schultz (sort of), he was able to convince them that the band's arrival at the targets they were to destroy were mere coincidences.
Sadly, Colonel Hogan was murdered in 1952 by an unknown assassin. A person wanted for deserting an HUAC hearing was suspected as the culprit, but he was abducted by aliens before a jury could reach a verdict, so the murderer remains unknown to this day.
Corporal Louis LeBeau, French Resistance (Robert Clary): Keyboardist, backup vocalist and songwriter for the band. In addition to his skills as a musician, LeBeau was also a skilled cook and brewer. In fact, it was him who suggested the restaurant idea while Hogan and the gang were coming up with ideas for fronts to their espionage operations. He also made friends with the guard dogs at Stalag 13.
After the war, LeBeau worked with numerous French disco artists & bands in the 70's, including Patrick Hernandez, Space, Cerrone, etc… Sadly, he never received any credit for his contributions. He also opened up a shelter for homeless animals and is an ardent animal activist. There are also rumors that he trained Julia Child, a.k.a. the "French Chef", but most evidence points to her as being alone in the kitchen.
Corporal Peter Newkirk, RAF (Richard Dawson): Guitarist, backup vocalist, arranger, promoter and costume designer for the band. Newkirk was a real card shark & was the guy who came up with the casino idea before the band was formed. Thanks to his convincing German accent & uniform designing skills, he was able to book many gigs for the band as a cover-up for their sabotage operations.
A few years after the war ended, Newkirk got a job as a panelist on a game show called Match Game. However, he was fired because he took the "match" part too seriously, having brought a box of matches onto the show & trying to answer questions by either lighting things on fire or by saying answers that had the word "fire" in them. After Match Game, he hosted his own game show called Family Feud. Unfortunately, he was murdered by Arnold Schwarzenegger after only a few episodes aired, but in typical form was reincarnated and arose again, and has now returned to the east end of London.
Sergeant James "Kinch" Kinchloe, US Army (Ivan Dixon): Bassist, songwriter and sound engineer for the band. Ordinarily a radio operator, he could also develop unique sounds by plugging his guitar into the radio receiver & tuning the settings. In addition to bass guitar, he was also skilled with the regular bass, double bass and bass synthesizer. He was one of the finest sound engineers in the business, though there are rumors floating around that he snuck backwards messages into a number of Hogan's Heroes songs.
After the war, Kinchloe worked on his own electronic musical instruments and released a series of obscure electronic music albums under the name "Chip". However, his work was ripped of by a number of electronic music artists many years later, including: Daft Punk, Rick Astley, Lady Gaga, etc…
Sergeant Andrew Carter, US Army Air Force (Larry Hovis): Horns player & special effects master for the band. Not only was he skilled with a variety of horn instruments such as the trumpet, trombone, saxophone, tuba, and so forth, he also set up some impressive pyrotechnic displays for the band's live shows. In fact, his pyrotechnics literally brought down the house!
When the war ended, as a trained pharmacist he started his own drug store in his home town of Muncie, Indiana, but got in trouble with the law on certain occasions for getting high off his own merchandise. In addition, he also got in trouble for possession and misuse of explosive devices and may or may not have masterminded some of the most notorious terrorist attacks of the Atomic Age.
However, despite Carter's trouble with the law, Bill Clinton claims that he got into playing the saxophone after seeing Carter play at a local bar.
Sergeant Baker, US Army (Kenneth Washington): Replacement bass player & sound engineer for the band. Only recorded one album for the band before the band broke up. It is unknown what he did after the war, though.
Sergeant Vladimir Minsk, Soviet Red Army (Leonid Kinskey): Original trumpeter and saxophonist for the band. Only played a few live shows for the band before leaving. When asked about it, he said he left because he didn't know that the band was founded for espionage purposes & because he felt it was too dangerous.
Corporal Robert "Budd" Dwyer (Christine Chubbuck): Original trombonist for the band. Was not 100% sure of his musical skills, so before each performance, he asked people to "leave the room if this [his trombone playing] will offend you". After a few people took his request seriously, he quit the band.
After the war, he died after sleeping with some chick/bird/loose lady. According to the reports, she "blew his mind".
Colonel Wilhelm Klink, German Luftwaffe (Werner Klemperer, often shortened to W. Klemp): Strings player & Commandant for Stalag 13. He was skilled with a variety of stringed instruments such as the violin, viola, cello, etc… He only played on the recordings, though. For live performances, the string section was comprised of random POWs from Stalag 13 who could play stringed instruments. In fact, the only reason he ever played for the band was because Hogan threatened to show Frau Linkmeyer (doctored) pictures of him with other chicks. To throw off suspicion, Hogan convinced Klink that he was recording him for some other project & recorded all of Klink's parts in Klink's office.
After the war & subsequent release from custody, he emigrated to the USA & released a rap album in 1951 under the name "Willie the K". However, it was not popular & was quickly forgotten. Of course, a couple of decades later, some black people in New York rediscovered this music, becoming so popular at block parties that they decided to make their own version of this music & claim all the credit for themselves.
As stated before, Hogan's Heroes were responsible for some of the biggest innovations in musical history, but others ended up stealing all the credit from them.
For starters, Hogan's Heroes invented a number of new musical genres & sub-genres, including: Rock & roll, disco, funk, metal, etc… More importantly, they invented new ways of listening to music.
One of these inventions was the vinyl record. One day, while recording their first single, the shellac disc that was going to be the first pressing was dropped & shattered. With an extremely limited supply of shellac on hand, the band tested out other materials before settling on vinyl.
Another accidental invention was the introduction of new record formats. When the band was mastering another single, the record speed was accidentally set to a lower speed. With extra space on the record, rather than throw away the partially-recorded disc, the band discovered that with this method, they could record more than 2 songs per record, giving rise to the album and the EP. They also hit upon the idea of recording extended versions of some of their songs in this manner, which spawned the 12" single for dance music.
Of course, none of this mattered for dick because for some reason, Hogan's Heroes was forgotten after the war & other people took credit for their ideas. There was a TV show based on Hogan's Heroes in the 60's, but it was semi-inaccurate as it made little to no mention of the band's musical career.

Agro-ecology and the Right to Food (A/HRC/16/49)
English, French & Spanish: http://www2.ohchr.org/english/issues/food/annual.htm
Small-scale farmers can double food production within 10 years in critical regions by using ecological methods, this new UN report shows. Based on an extensive review of the recent scientific literature, the study calls for a fundamental shift towards agroecology as a way to boost food production and improve the situation of the poorest. "To feed 9 billion people in 2050, we urgently need to adopt the most efficient farming techniques available," says Olivier De Schutter, UN Special Rapporteur on the right to food and author of the report. "Today's scientific evidence demonstrates that agroecological methods outperform the use of chemical fertilizers in boosting food production where the hungry live -- especially in unfavorable environments."
e-Digest on Freedom of Religion or Belief – 25 years of thought by four UN Special Rapporteurs

Preventing Torture: An Operational Guide for National Human Rights Institutions
This Guide is the outcome of cooperation between the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), the Association for the Prevention of Torture (APT), and the Asia Pacific Forum of National Human Rights Institutions (APF). This Guide aims to support and strengthen the work of national human rights institutions (NHRIs), and has been designed as a practical tool to support them in their concrete activities to prevent torture.
Report of the Panel on Remedies and Reparations for Victims of Sexual Violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo to the High Commissioner for Human Rights
English: http://www.ohchr.org/Documents/Countries/ZR/DRC_Reparations_Report_en.pdf
French: http://www.ohchr.org/Documents/Countries/ZR/DRC_Reparations_Report_fr.pdf
A new UN report, based on testimonies by some of the hundreds of thousands of victims of sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, paints an extremely stark picture of the at best inadequate, and at worst non-existent, resources and efforts to meet their needs, ranging from medical and psychological treatment, to their socio-economic situation, and lack of access to justice, compensation and other forms of remedies and reparations. The 55-page report, published 10 March 2011 by a special high-level panel appointed by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay, is the product of a 17-day field visit by the panel's three members and their support team to seven locations in three different provinces and the capital Kinshasa.
Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015: Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters; Mid-term review 2010-2011 (UNISDR)
A new report – released by the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction Secretariat (UNISDR) - confirms what governments already hear but are slow to believe: that disciplined public sector involvement in "disaster risk reduction" can significantly reduce setbacks brought by hundreds of droughts, earthquakes, wildfires, hurricanes and other hazards that befall the world each year, on average. The report points out that a majority of countries have roadmaps for creating and safeguarding wealth, but many are lacking capacity. In some cases, there is capacity but no legal basis for coordination among the different government sectors.

Maude turned 13 yesterday. Thirteen! To celebrate, we made her breakfast in bed. And immediately following that, she opened a Facebook account. : )
We had a small party in the afternoon that featured a berry tarte from our favorite bakery in Alençon, and a few gifts. We'll host a party for her friends in a couple of weeks. (We're working on the party plans now. We think we'll go with a "spa" theme. I'll be sure to share details.)
One of her gifts was a Kaleidograph. It's such a cool toy! There are no rules, no winners, no strategy. You just combine cards to get different patterns. Doesn't sound very fancy, I know. But it is shockingly satisfying to play around with. It's the sort of toy I like to keep in the living room, on display, ready to be picked up by any guest or family member, because it's appealing to people of all ages. It's also the sort of toy I like to keep stocked in my gift stash. You can find them on Amazon.
My Dad had a thing for "grown-up toys" — the kind of objects that appeal to adults as much as kids — and I've found that I like to keep them around as well. Do you have any toys like that in your house? Is there an especially good one you'd recommend?

The Ithaca College Chamber Orchestra is comprised of 30 to 40 of the School of Music's top string, wind and percussion players and is dedicated to performing string and chamber orchestra repertoire from the baroque through the twentieth century, as well as contemporary works of our time. The ICCO presents numerous performances per year and also serves as the opera orchestra in at least one operatic production per concert season.
The ICCO has toured Ireland and performed throughout upstate New York as well as at numerous New York State School Music Association Conferences to universal acclaim. The ICCO recently performed at Cornell University under the baton of Leon Fleisher as part of the 2010 Beethoven Concerto Project. Other guest conductors in recent seasons have included Andreas Delfs (Conductor Laureate, Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra), Carl St. Clair (Pacific Symphony), Leslie Dunner (Louisville Ballet), and Gustav Meier (Peabody). Guest soloists in recent seasons have included Malcolm Bilson (fortepiano), Ursula Oppens (piano) and David Russell, (cello). Former music directors include Pamela Gearhart, Grant Cooper, Jeffrey Grogan and Jeffery Meyer. The orchestra has a demonstrated commitment to a wide diversity of repertoire for chamber orchestra including the music of our time. It has worked with composers such as William Bolcom, Melinda Wagner and Diego Vego among others. During the 2010-11 season, the Ithaca College Chamber Orchestra Composition Competition was founded in order to encourage the creation of new works for chamber orchestra. The competition drew over 100 entries from North America.
Membership in the IC Symphony Orchestra/Chamber Orchestra is open to all IC students by audition. Audition repertoire and excerpts are available online. Auditions take place during the first week of fall classes. Auditions must show a mastery of the material and an awareness of the musical context from which the excerpts are taken. In addition to the ICSO and ICCO, there is also the Ithaca College Sinfonietta which meets for two hours per week and presents one concert per semester.

About the course
Stour Vale Academy Trust (SVAT) offers primary and secondary school direct training. SVAT includes a number of excellent training schools across the Black Country and trainees will spend the majority of their time in these schools. We work with a number of providers, including University of Worcester, University of Wolverhampton and Haybridge Alliance SCITT (accredited through Birmingham City University).
We offer a comprehensive professional studies package which includes training in all aspects of school life, from assessment to work-life balance. Our programme is delivered by practising professionals and incorporates the latest pedagogy. It also includes visits to other schools alongside sessions from guest speakers to enhance your understanding of contemporary practice.
Secondary Training: all trainees will be fully supported by both their subject and their professional mentor. The subject mentor will provide subject specific support, including access to the latest teaching and learning strategies in order to become a confident teacher. Trainees will spend up to 70 days in their main school (autumn and summer term) and up to 35 days in their second placement (spring term). Autumn term will consist of observing lessons and working collaboratively with other teachers, and trainees will be teaching independently by October half-term. Teaching allocations will then be increased gradually over the next two terms. Alongside their teaching commitments, trainees will also spend approximately 45 days with their Higher Education provider where they will receive expert training in their subject specialisms as well as attending supplementary professional studies sessions and other enhancement activities. There will be two assignments plus a presentation assessing a trainee's subject and pedagogical knowledge and which together form part of the PGCE Secondary offer (which also includes 60 Masters credits).
Primary Training: Trainees will spend up to 23 weeks in their base school (autumn and summer terms) and up to 8 weeks in their second placement (spring term). In addition to this, they will also spend up to 7 weeks either at university or on enhanced placements. One day per week will be devoted to professional studies which will take place either at university or in school. For their PGCE accreditation, trainees will have to complete 2 assignments plus a presentation.
Interview process
Applications through University of Worcester: candidates will attend an interview at the university which will include a presentation and a formal interview with subject and course leaders from the university and Stour Vale. They will also spend a morning at their host school where they will conduct an activity with a group of pupils and take part in a subject knowledge discussion. For applications through University of Wolverhampton and Haybridge Alliance SCITT, the process will be similar to the process for Worcester, but there will be additional literacy and numeracy tasks for Haybridge candidates.
How school placements work
Stour Vale Academy Trust works with a number of schools (see our web-site for further details) and candidates are usually allocated according to capacity and need. In all cases, the candidate's own circumstances will be considered so that travel times are not inconvenient. All our schools are mainly in the Dudley Borough and at secondary level they are predominantly 11-16 intake. You will spend the autumn and summer terms at your host school and the spring term in your second placement.
Applicants through University of Worcester, University of Wolverhampton or Haybridge Alliance SCITT will be allocated through the same process. Applicants to salaried placements through University of Wolverhampton will train at the host school specified in the course information.
All trainees are allocated a subject mentor and a professional mentor within school. Teaching timetables are staged and trainees will be expected to be teaching independently by the end of the first term. Weekly meetings and observations will be designed to fully support the trainee's needs and help them to develop as classroom practitioners.
Fee amount pending confirmation from Haybridge Alliance SCITT.
Financial support
You could be eligible for either:
- a scholarship of £28,000
- a bursary of £26,000
With a scholarship or bursary, you'll also get early career payments of £2,000 in your second, third and fourth years of teaching (£3,000 in some areas of England).
To qualify for a scholarship you'll need a degree of 2:1 or above in Physics or a related subject. For a bursary you'll need a 2:2 or above in any subject.
You can't claim both a bursary and a scholarship - you can only claim one.
Find out how to apply for a scholarship. You don't need to apply for a bursary - if you're eligible, you'll automatically start receiving it once you begin your course. Find out how you'll be paid.
You may also be eligible for a loan while you study – note that you'll have to apply for undergraduate student finance.
Find out about financial support if you're from outside the UK.
Secondary: You will have attained a degree in your subject area. We will consider other relevant and related degrees providing the necessary Subject Knowledge Enhancement Programme is completed. You should have a Grade C/4 or above in both English and Mathematics; however, we will consider candidates who need to take an equivalency test as well as those with a pending GCSE.
Primary: In addition to a relevant degree, you will also need GCSE to Grade C/4 or above in English, Mathematics and Science.
Personal qualities
We are looking for people who first and foremost believe in the power of education to transform the lives of young people, whatever their background and ability. You will be hard-working, with an enquiring mind and have the resilience to stay the course. Teaching is the most rewarding job in the world, but it is also, like all professions, a challenging one. You will be supported all the way, but we also want you to be independent, a critical thinker, reflective and self-aware. You will also need to be a confident communicator who will contribute to a great team spirit.
Other requirements
- Full criminal/DBS checks will be carried out upon application.
- Trainees without the relevant degree may well be expected to take a Subject Knowledge Enhancement course.
- Fitness to Teach: Admission to the course is subject to a satisfactory medical report, as you are required to meet the standards for Fitness to Teach. We endeavour to meet the needs of trainees with disabilities and you are welcome to discuss any needs or disabilities with us at any time during the application process.
About the training provider
Stour Vale Academy Trust is a group of primary and secondary schools offering school direct training across a range of specialisms. Teaching and learning is our core purpose and our course is built on principles of knowledge, inquiry and challenge.
Whether you opt for primary or secondary training, you will be part of an exciting and comprehensive training programme. Supported by our experienced and talented mentors, you will quickly become an integral part of a supportive and aspirational environment that is committed to outstanding outcomes for all, assuring you of the best possible start to your teaching profession.

Our primary schools: Olive Hill Primary, Halesowen; Northfield Road Primary, Netherton
We also work closely with a number of other schools in the Black Country, including Oldbury Academy, The Crestwood School (Dudley), and St Matthias School (Wolverhampton).
Our courses are accredited by University of Worcester, University of Wolverhampton and Haybridge Alliance SCITT (c/o Birmingham City University), and all our tuition fee courses award a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) to all successful trainees. Salaried courses award Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) to all successful trainees.
We offer places for secondary and primary trainees.
About the accredited body
We work closely with Haybridge SCITT in ensuring our trainees receive an outstanding experience. Applying to train with Stour Vale Academy Trust or one of our partner schools through Haybridge is no different to any other process other than you will receive your professional studies training at Haybridge rather than a Stour Vale school.
Training with disabilities and other needs
We are a fully inclusive Trust and pride ourselves on our provision for all our stakeholders' needs. Wheelchair access is excellent with lift access to all areas of our site. We take care to ensure the mental health and well-being of staff and pupils and have recognised this in our ITT handbook.

EWG News and Analysis
The latest from EWG's staff of experts >>
Mercury High in Storebought Fish
Friday, September 16, 2005
AP reports that University of North Carolina tests in 21 states found average mercury levels in tuna and swordfish at 1.1 parts per million, over the government's limit of 1 ppm. The samples came from supermarket chains, including Safeway and Whole Foods, and some groups are pushing for supermarkets to include warning signs with their seafood displays.
Mercury can cause neurological and developmental problems in children, and women of child-bearing age, infants and children are advised to avoid fish high in mercury, including white albacore tuna, swordfish, tilefish and shark.
EWG's work on mercury and seafood is here.
