In late 2012, Scott confirmed his interest in making a full-length Ninjago movie with a more serious tone than the TV show. In March 2013, he confirmed the film is in production, and casting for voice actors began that April. Filming took place from May to November. The film began airing on YouTube on July 7, 2014 and concluded on December 11. It gained a generally positive reception.
A shortened version of the film was released on March 28, 2015, and a sequel, Ninjago: Rise of the Great Devourer, aired from July 2015 to March 2016. A third film, Ninjago: Age of the Golden Master, aired from July to Deceber 2018.
Sensei Wu dedicates his life to defending Ninjago, a land created by his father, the First Spinjitzu Master. Over the years Ninjago has been plagued by a growing darkness. In 2010, Cole Hence is training with several teenagers - Kai, Jay and Zane - to become Ninja and unite to protect the city. Cole's father, Lou Hence, is a construction worker in Jamanakai Village. During an attack by the Hypnobrai and Fangpyre tribes, General Skales kills Skales, before the Serpentine tribes are detained once more. Cole intends to become a Ninja and avenge the death of his father.
Four years later, Cole has completed his training for the time being but feels he has no true purpose in life. He meets with Sensei and the Ninja, and regains confidence in himself. The next day, the Ninja rescue Dareth from Jamanakai Lake, where he and a corrupt politician, Cillian Fincher, are held hostage by the notorious Captain Soto. In the meantime, Lloyd Garmadon, Wu's nephew and the son of Lord Garmadon, frees the Hypnobrai and Fangpyre tribes from their underground tombs. They reconvene at the Slither Pit, and plan an attack on Jamanakai Village. Lloyd and his army, as well Captain Soto's ship Destiny's Bounty, arrive in the village. They fight against the Ninja and police officers Mason Davis and Ben Delmar. As the Serpentine retreat, the Bounty is damaged and crashes.
After the battle in Jamanakai, Captain Rezzle, the head of the city's military, along with the police, ally with the Ninja. Zane repairs the Bounty while the Serpentine head out for a second assault. The Ninja and the police chase after Lloyd and Fangtom, who drive an explosive-rigged truck to Jamanakai Village to blow up the large electrical barrel. In Jamanakai, Sensei and Dareth fly the Bounty and defend the electrical barrel from Fang-Suei, who also pilots a Rattlecopter carrying explosives. Cole goes to the Slither Pit to confront Skales on his own, vengeful over his father's death.
The final battle ensues, with the Ninja pursuing Lloyd's truck while the Bounty battles the Rattlecopter and Cole fights Skales. Fang-Suei, Snappa and officer Johnson are killed in the chaos. Jay shoots the crate of explosives off the back of the truck. Cole is incapacitated by Skales before stabbing him Skales the stomach and killing him. Zane apprehends Lloyd, as per Sensei's orders, while Jay and Kai chase the truck alongside the Slither Pit before forcing it off the side of the cliff, destroying it. The Ninja and police regroup in the Slither Pit, with Zane proposing that they make a move to unite the people of Ninjago City and promise a secure future.
Mason Davis announces his retirement as the city's police commissioner and Delmar takes his place. After Cole regroups with the Ninja, Sensei persuades Lloyd to become a Ninja in order to save his father, which Lloyd considers. Cole, Kai, Jay and Zane discuss what the future will hold, and declare they'll stand together as Ninja.
In a post-credits scene, the Skulkin warrior Bonezai approaches Lord Garmadon, stating that he (The Overlord) would like to see him.

- Destiny's Bounty - A colossal aerial ship designed to fly and float. Manned by Captain Soto and his crew of pirates, the Bounty, as it is often called, is used in their various missions to torment and steal from the people of Ninjago. When the pirates encounter the Ninja, the ship is damaged and eventually taken from them. After being used against a Rattlecopter, the Bounty was severely damaged.
- Fangpyre Truck - A large green truck built by the Fangpyre Tribe during their assault on Jamanakai Village. There are two Fangpyre trucks in the film.

- Rattlecopters - Green snake-like jets built by the Fangpyre Tribe during their assault on Jamanakai Village. There are five Rattlecopters in the film, with four of them flown by Lloyd, Snappa, Fang-Suei and Mezmo.

- Hydro Heli-Jet - A flying hydraulic propeller-powered aircraft seen shooting down a Rattlecopter at 23 mnutes, 18 seconds into the film. It can be seen in water for a brief moment at 24:31 into the film.
The police also use various police cars. At the beginning of the film, Sensei, Cole, Jay and Dareth are flying in a helicopter. Various construction vehicles and a semi truck are also seen on Jamanakai Dam while it was being constructed.
LordStarscream100 first developed the concept of Ninjago in December 2012. At first, he stated that the film will represent a new and more serious view on the story. However, it will still have many similarities to the TV show and story, although the film will not be a dark movie. Voice casting officially began on April 12. In July, Luke Perakovic resigned from the voice of Lloyd Garmadon due to technology issues, and the role was then given to JTHStudio, who will also voice Mezmo. On July 29, it was confirmed that filming would begin in March 2014 and conclude in early-June 2014. On the same day, the film's first screenplay draft had been completed.
A teaser trailer for the film was released on August 29. Writing for the film's official screenplay is currently underway as of September 15. Soon afterwards, it was confirmed that LordStarscream100 had sent out a message to all of the film's voice actors asking them if they are still voicing their respective characters. Various people were resigned from their roles after not replying, although Cielphatomgive has resigned from the voice of Lord Garmadon for various reasons. On November 10, it was confirmed that the film's script was complete, with revisions set to take place soon. On January 2, it was confirmed that CarpenterStudios had resigned from the voice of Zane, choosing to focus more on Kai instead of dealing with two main protagonists. GreshLord, who was set to voice Mason Davis and Fangtom, was offered the role of Zane and chose to voice both Zane and Mason Davis on January 4. On January 6, FireStar97Studios signed on to voice Fangtom and Lord Garmadon.
Throughout January and February, the film was undergoing screenplay revisions, as well as modifications to the cast. The first official trailer for the film was released on February 20. On February 26, it was confirmed that Whatsupwithcomix (now Cameron Morris), who had been cast out of the role of Ben Delmar due to his inactivity on Youtube, was recast as Anthony Reese. Previously, ToaFirestorm was recast as Ben Delmar. On March 7, LordStarscream100 confirmed that the revisions for the script were officially complete. On March 18, LordStarscream100 confirmed that he had finished organizing the lines for over twenty different characters. Lines were handed out to approximately sixteen different voice actors.
On April 3, LordStarscream100 confirmed that filming has been moved to an unspecified date due to the damage to the set. He has also confirmed that the film's release date has not been altered as a result of this. On April 10, Cameron Morris sent in the first set of lines for the film, completing his role as Anthony Reese. On April 19, LordStarscream100 confirmed that KookKidsPictures was forced to drop out of the role of Captain James Soto. LordStarscream100 originally took his place, as he didn't have time for a recasting and didn't want to overwhelm the current voice actors with the offer, but due to various recastings JTHStudio wound up taking his place in the role. On May 17, Lewafire12 was cast out of the role of Dareth, as he had not been responding to LordStarscream100 about the status of the role. Collector1100 was officially recast as Dareth.
On May 27, LordStarscream100 confirmed that the entire film would not be released on June 20. On June 11, Shadow Raven Productions resigned from the role of Cole Hence, citing the fact that he would not have the time to do it. Having lost the actor for its main protagonist and without several of its major voice actors, LordStarscream100 was forced to postpone the film by two weeks. On June 25, LordStarscream100 confirmed that Jack Morris has officially been recast as Cole Hence. He submitted his lines the day of the announcement. The release date was later pushed back from July 4 to July 7 after the file that contained the first portion of the movie was corrupted. On September 7, the second part of the film was released.
On October 10, it was confirmed that Ryan B would be taking over the role of Kai Fellows. Fellows was voiced by CarpenterStudios in parts 1 and 2, and was set to continue for the remainder of the film, but because of problems with getting voice lines done for a long period of time, had to drop out of the film. Ryan B's lines will be used from here on forward, and will also voice over the segments from part 1 and 2 during the full movie's release. Part 3 was released on November 10, with a larger running time of 45 minutes. It was originally set for release on November 9, but was bumped a day further due to a major audio problem with it. On November 12, LordStarscream100 decided that before editing on the film's two final parts would commence, he would go back and revise the lines from the first two parts whose voice actors had been switched. Part 4 was released on November 30, and Part 5 was released on December 11, concluding the film's production.
Filming officially began on-location on May 5 and was completed on November 15. For several days, Scott had to rebuild the set because a major flashback scene was being filmed using a large part of it. The scene, which depicts Jamanakai Village four years before the actual events of the film, was shot in May before being swiftly modified to the modern set. The new and rebuilt version, which acts as the present day, is used for the rest of the film.
As judged by the five parts and both halves of the full movie of Ninjago, the film has gained a generally positive reception, gaining a 78% rating based on 1,781 likes and 492 dislikes. When combining the reception of the film itself and its trailers, it also has a rating of 78% based on 2,610 likes and 735 dislikes. Much of the negative reception that came here was with the film's second trailer, which was released in February 2014 and gained a mixed reception because many people believed the film was "fake". The rest came with the full movie, which gained more of a negative reaction because it is not necessarily an "official" movie, as some would call it - however, it was never advertised to be such.
Because many people were confused with the two full movie videos, as they believed the film was a scam for the upcoming 2017 Ninjago film, a portion of the dislikes are due to the confusion. Daniel Poulter, best known for directing LEGO Ninjago: The Animated Movie and its sequel, Day of the Nindroids, praised the film for its unique directing style and animation. Daniel wound up joining the cast of the film's sequel because he enjoyed it so much.
Currently, according to Scott's analytics, the film set the record for having the biggest Part 1 debut, gaining 550 views three months after its release. In comparison, Jurassic Shark had around 350 views three months after its first part debuted, while its sequel had around 300. The first half of the full movie, which included all the scenes leading up to the film's final battle, has gained nearly 1,000 views about a week after its release. Ninjago also went four months with having a solid 100% rating, maintaining 46 likes and 0 dislikes before the release of Part 3.
Looking back on the film, Scott believed it could've been better in several areas, namely with its editing and sound design. He believed the awkward cutting of shots, as well as the lack of sound effects, were his two biggest flaws with the project.
Sequels Edit
See Ninjago: Rise of the Great Devourer and Ninjago: Age of the Golden Master
- This was Scott's first film to feature a post-credits scene.
- The minifigures for Vladimir Dubrovky and the soldiers, except for their head molds, were given to Scott by Ryan Bowman, who voices Vladimir in the film.
- The casual outfits worn by Kai and Cole are the outfits worn by the two criminals featured in 4853 Spider-Man's Street Chase, a LEGO set released alongside Spider-Man 2 in 2004.
- Captain Soto's torso and hair pieces are the same ones used for Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings sets. Scott sought to create a more "realistic" look for Soto instead of giving him such features as a peg leg, eyepatch, and hat, choosing to base the designs of him and the other pirates off of modern day ones.
- After Cole stabs Skales in the stomach with his sword, he says, "Your fate was sealed when you first stepped into this village", but the scene takes place in the Slither Pit. This is actually a minor flaw in the script, as the entire scene was originally set to take place in Jamanakai Village. Scott decided to change the scene at the last minute.
- As a matter of fact, there weren't any changes to the script when the location was switched. The original script would fit perfectly with the environment of the Slither Pit, as Scott noticed. He felt that setting the confrontation between the two characters there would be much better for numerous reasons, including the fact that it would tie in neatly with the ending chase scene.
- AckarProductions5 is credited as Ackarproductions5, with the "p" not being capitalized. Scott made this error because he was so used to seeing YouTube usernames that "needed" capilization in some places but they didn't have it. He was credited properly in the sequel.
- Simon Bowler, a government agent who previously appeared in the BIONICLE Universe series, returns in this film as the creator of the Ninjas' suits, technology, and other devices. In the TV Show, Cyrus Borg, the head of a technology company, wound up doing the same for the Ninja in Curse World - Part II, as he created several new vehicles for them.
- As revealed in Ninjago: Age of the Golden Master, Bowler is indeed the son of Cyrus Borg.
- When uploading the film's separate parts to YouTube, Scott would combine several smaller videos into a single video using the YouTube Editor. Unfortunately, an update to the editor prevented videos with copyrighted content from being used in the editor. This caused the third part of the film to be delayed at the last second, as some of the music it used was copyrighted. As a result, Scott replaced much of the music.
- Scott was very cautious when moving Destiny's Bounty around in the action scenes, particularly when it flies over/around the creek, sometimes at high speeds. If the fishing wire broke, the Bounty would likely be heavily damaged and the sails would also be destroyed because of their paper-like material.
- During the Bounty's final scene, where Sensei and Dareth are using it against Fang-Suei's Rattlecopter, one of the fishing wire strands snapped. Fortunately, the Bounty was barely hovering above the creek, and the back of it landed on a mud bank, unharmed.
- The film surpasses Jurassic Shark III: The Revolution as LordStarscream100's most positively-received full-length movie. Jurassic Shark III has a current rating of 79% (exact - 78.95%, while Ninjago has a current rating of 80% (exact - 79.97%).
- However, the reception for Jurassic Shark III is currently only based off of the film's first part, as the rest of the film has yet to be released. Jurassic Shark II: The Retribution is also close, with a rating of 77% (exact - 77.77%).
- In the BIONICLE Universe films, Captain Rezzle appeared as a toy military figure, not a LEGO minifigure. In this film, while it is still the same character, he appears as a LEGO minifigure.
- Simon Bowler also appeared throughout the BIONICLE Universe trilogy in minifigure form, and he appears the exact same way in this film as he did back then.
- As of July 2018, the film is Scott's most successful "full movie" in views. The first half of the film's full movie has nearly 230,000 views.
- The Ice Dragon that Zane flies is not an Elemental Dragon, as confirmed by Scott. Elemental Dragons were introduced in the fourth season of the TV show. Scott hasn't confirmed whether such dragons exist in the series' canon.
- Kai and Zane appear in their original ninja outfits during the flashback. For the rest of the film, they wear their ZX outfits along with Cole and Jay.
- Dareth is described as being a friend of Jay's and also his partner in the film.
- The base for the Ninja was always envisioned to be in the tree that it wound up being in, and when Scott first put it in the tree, it fit perfectly amongst the vines.
- Lloyd Garmadon never appears as the Green Ninja in the film, although his ending conversation with Sensei Wu hints at this future role. Scott chose to have a different take on the character, in which he's truly set on following in his evil father's footsteps.
- In the canon storyline, Cole's father and Skales never die, and have made numerous appearances throughout the TV series.
- In the original version of the script, Cole, Kai and Zane go on a journey to find the Ice Dragon, which was in a deep slumber in a more rural part of the city. The scene was scrapped when the entire plot of the film was changed, in which the Ninja weren't actually training in the midst of the story.
- The Nunchucks of Lightning were replaced with the Sais of Lightning because they would be easier to film in fight scenes. Ironically, Jay never used them in the film. For the sequel, Scott retconned the sais and changed them into the Nunchucks of Lightning.
- Another major aspect that was retconned was the name Spinjitzu City, which was changed to Ninjago City. Scott changed the name originally because he found it odd to have the word "Ninja" in the city's name, but later decided this was a poor decision.
- In the original script, Dareth was a much different character. He would be captured by the pirates and saved by the Ninja, just like in the film, but in the original script they wouldn't know him personally. Dareth would discover and enter the Ninjas' base, where he'd encounter Sensei and Jay. The Bounty would attack the base, with Jay losing his mask in the chaos (the Ninja would hide their identities as well). Sensei would then allow Dareth to help Jay fight Lloyd's forces. Scott scrapped the scene because it felt like an awkward introduction for the character.
- The geography of Jamanakai Village in the film is far different from in the original storyline. It also plays a larger role as well.
- Shadow Raven Productions was set to voice Cole. He even voiced the character for the film's two trailers. However, in June, he was forced to drop out of the role due to a lack of time to complete it.
- Cameron Morris was the first person to send lines in for the film. He later recommended his colleague, Jack Morris, to take the part of Cole Hence after Shadow Raven Productions dropped out.
- Douglas Garthwiate was originally cast as Fangdam. When Scott found out that the character is mute in the canon storyline, he cast Doug as Snappa instead.
- It required one strand of fishing wire to move vehicles such as the Tread Assault, Fangpyre Truck, and the police boat and cars. It required two of them to move aerial vehicles such as the Rattlecopters and the Ice Dragon. Due to its immense size, it required three separate strands to move Destiny's Bounty when in aerial mode.
- For the scenes where the Tread Assault and Fangpyre Truck "flew" over the Serpentine Tomb, as well as the scene where the truck shoots off the side of the Slither Pit, flies through the air and crashes to the ground below, utilized two strands of fishing wire.
- FireStar97Studios was originally set to voice Lord Garmadon in the film. In fact, the role was included in the script and he even recorded the lines for the character. However, Garmadon's major scene in the film was cut out because LordStarscream100 felt it did nothing but foreshadow future plot elements that didn't pertain to the film. In the after-credits scene, Garmadon's response to Bonezai was supposed to be, "and so, he shall." However, LordStarscream100 decided to keep him silent in the scene. Ultimately, FireStar97Studios went uncredited for his work on Garmadon.
- He was set to voice the character in the sequel, but because LordStarscream100 felt that his portrayal of the character was out of his expectations, 1tjmac12 was recast in the role.
- The film was originally set to run anywhere from 120 to 140 minutes in length, although due to its opening scenes and exposition, which totaled around 40 minutes of the final product, the film's running time exceeded 180 minutes. Half of the exposition focused on the flashback scene and meeting the characters, while the second half focused on the introduction of the ninja. The film's director's cut only runs at around 121 minutes.
- Two of the film's soldiers, Roberts and the Russian Soldier, are both voiced by Ryan B. While LordStarscream100 sent him lines, Ryan heavily improvised many of them for the characters.
- Lloyd Garmadon's hair in the film is not black. It is really blonde like in the original story, but he dyed it black because he felt it would make him look more intimidating.
- Destiny's Bounty is heavily modified from the original set. It features a pulpit, a larger deck, and a blaster on its cabin. It is also able to float, although there are issues with it filling up with water.
- The Rattlecopter is more of a Rattlejet if anything. Scott modified the original set into a jet, although he decided to stick with the title of "Rattlecopter" because it sounded catchy.
- Unlike the original series, Lloyd Garmadon's "initial role" is expanded in this film, as he becomes a bigger and more serious villain than in the TV show. He is also not featured as the Green Ninja in the film, although at the end his conversation with Sensei Wu hints at the role he will adopt in the future.
- The Golden Weapons briefly appear in the film. While three of them have no part in the plot, Cole obtains the Scythe of Quakes in his final fight with Skales. Scott says that originally, the Ninja were set to use them throughout the film, but he forgot to make this concept come to fruition.
- Excluding the scene where the ninja receive their vehicles/gear and the initial conversation between Davis and Reese, the film was entirely shot on-location in the woods.
- Approximately 7,800 different videos were shot for the film in all.
- Jay is the only Ninja whose voice actor did not resign from the role. OonieandCacola stuck with the role all throughout the production. Shadow Raven Productions, CarpenterStudios and GreshLord all resigned from the voices of Cole, Kai and Zane, respectively, before their longtime voice actors were cast.
- AckarProduction5, OonieandCacola, Westificationful and Cameron Morris are the only voice actors who made it all the way through the production that began in April 2013 (Cameron Morris did wind up being removed from the cast for a time, although after his return he was recast from Ben Delmar to Anthony Reese). All four of them return as their respective characters for the sequel.
- Ninjago is the first example of any of Scott's films where his actors have also done voice acting; where Russell Parkinson played Cillian Fincher and Ryan Bowman played Kai Fellows.
- Unlike the rest of Scott's LEGO-based films (namely the BIONICLE: Universe film series), all of which used stop-motion animation, Ninjago was filmed and produced entirely live action, save for post-production special effects and sounds.
Spoiler TriviaEdit
- In the original script, Lloyd was to unleash the Hypnobrai first, and go with them to unleash the Fangpyre in a separate tomb. To improve pacing, both tribes were put in a single tomb.
- Originally, Mason Davis was set to die by Ben Delmar's side at the end of the film, following the chase scene at the Slither Pit. The scene was never written into the script, and Mason's death was instead postponed to Rise of the Great Devourer, at which point Scott felt his fate better fit the story.
Connections (spoilers)Edit
- The sounds made by the Ice Dragon were also featured several times in the TV show, such as in episode 70, when Lloyd uses his Elemental Dragon to fight the Vermillion.
- Captain Rezzle, Simon Bowler, and the pilot at the beginning of the film (whose name is J.T. O'Neill) appeared in the BIONICLE Universe series. Rezzle appeared in the first and third films, O'Neill appeared in the second and third films, and Bowler appeared in all three films.
- At the beginning of the film, Sensei mentions that Kai and Zane are in Ignacia dealing with the Fangpyre Tribe. This is a homage to the first episode of the TV show, in which Wu visits Kai and Nya's Blacksmith Shop in Ignacia.
- Lloyd Garmadon's line "Fair? Fair isn't a word where I come from", is from the original storyline, where Lloyd himself quotes a comic book character he idolizes.
- In the fifth season of the TV show, a new technique called "Airjitzu" (which is essentially aerial Spinjitzu) is introduced. Coincidentally, Scott's portrayal of Spinjitzu in the film is very similar to the way Airjitzu works, in which instead of the user doing Spinjitzu on the ground, they do the same thing but in the air, and hover upwards.
- Just like in the TV show, Lloyd Garmadon makes his first "attack" on Jamanakai Village. In the TV show, he went there with the Serpentine to steal candy.
- The First Spinitzu Master's look in the opening of the film is based off of his look in the flashbacks from the TV show. He has Zane's head in the film because Scott saw a similarity between the two.

Five non-Native Plants found in the Sonoran Desert threatening Tonto National Forest. There are many other invasives but these are relatively easy to identify
Fountain grass.
Warm season perennial grass.
Often used as
a landscaping plant. Naturalizes
easily into dry or moist washes.
Prolific seed producer.
Seedheads are lighter colored
and longer than those of buffelgrass. Leaves are very thin,
and have fine rough hairs along them so that if you run your
fingers down the leaf it feels very rough.
Warm season perennial grass.
Seed heads look like those of fountain
grass, but are darker, and not as long.
Leaf blades are wide; those of fountain
grass are very fine. Stems like to
fall down and sprawl, unlike fountain grass,
which has very erect stems.
Saharan mustard
Winter annual forb, grows in desert areas in Arizona and
California. Germinates in December or January and grows
very rapidly, shooting up gangly flower stalks in February,
sometimes as early as January.
Leaves are all basal (none along the flower stalk), very deeply
lobed, smooth (not fuzzy), and often longer than a foot long.
Flowers are 4-petalled, yellow, and small. Fruit is a pod with
a beak at the tip, containing several round tiny black seeds.2
Malta starthistle
Winter annual forb. Usually germinates December through
March, depending upon rainfall. Grows mainly in desert
areas, also in Juniper grass- or shrubland, up to Oxbow Hill
just south of Payson.
Basal rosette leaves are very fuzzy, lobes on leaves are often
alternate on either side of the main leaf vein. As central stem
elongates, there is a fringe of leaf all along the stem.
With warm weather, central stem shoots up with branches
and yellow flowers at ends of stems. Yellow flowers sit on a
very spiny receptacle.
Salt cedar, or tamarisk, is a riparian ecosystem
invader. It grows to tree size, with reddish bark,
and scale-like leaves. Much of the year plants have
catkins of pink flowers.

A Second Serving reviews Mister Lasagne in Soho...
If you're craving carbs then Mister Lasagne is the place to go. The new restaurant, which is slap back in the heart of Soho, serves nothing but your favourite Italian dish, in fact they offer a whopping 21 different varieties. You then choose from five complimentary sauces to add on top. Nom nom nom! All ingredients are carefully sourced, from the lasagne sheets to the vegetables, meats and cheeses. With a healthy doze of pizza choices in London, this is a welcome change in Italian dining.
Why go?
The food, which you pick up yourself at the counter when you walk in, is good value for money and very filling. I went for the trio of lasagne, which cost just £7.80 - so this would be a great place to go for a quick lunch. I chose the chicken and chorizo, the four cheeses and the vegetable aubergine with the traditional bolognaise sauce recipe on top. My partner went for a different selection with the creamy béchamel sauce. While the home-cooked feel of each lasagne came through, it was hard to pinpoint a fave... but I certainly got my lasagne fix! Despite being very full, I somehow managed to tuck into the tiramisu for dessert. Oops!
|When is there not room for dessert?!

GVP replaces Thaman in Vishal's next
Close on the heels of the success of Pandiya Naadu, Vishal is ready to start his next. It will be directed by Thiru, who made Theeratha Vilayattu Pillai and Samar with Vishal earlier.
The original plan was to have Thaman as the music composer for this yet untitled project. However, he has now been replaced by G V Prakash Kumar.
Says G Dhananjayan of UTV Motion Pictures, who will co-produce the film in association with Vishal Film Factory, "Actually we initially approached GVP to compose music. But he was busy at that time."
"So we planned to have Thaman on board. However, we found Thaman too busy with other commitments. At that time, GVP called us and said he would work for this project on priority basis," he adds.

Why Some Women Will Not Date After Divorce
For some, dating might seem too draining already having too many other things to do. From taking care of the kids, to working to even hanging out with your girls, dating might be just a burden on you. Another reason why many women choose to shy away from dating after they get divorced is that … Read more

Next week my family from the West Coast is coming for a visit and I am thrilled.
I always like to have little welcome gifts when people visit me – something practical for them to use while they are here and something they can use at home.
The three kids (all under age 12) are getting personalized bags that I ordered from Lillian Vernon so they can easily schlep their stuff between family homes here in New Jersey.
And for the adults I thought I would make them each a Signature Essential Oils Spritz with their names on the bottle. It will be at tier bedside in my guest rooms, and they can take it with them on their visit to the Jersey Shore – and then home if it lasts that long!
Kristen is a Geranium Gal…….
David is a Man of Valor…
Here is how I'm making these Signature Spritz's….(I'm calling them "Body Spray's" so they know they can spray all over their body – and these are great in the summer time!):
* A small mister bottle
* 4 drops of essential oils (Geranium for Kristen)
* 4 oz of distilled water
–Just fill the mister bottle starting with 4 drops of essential oils.
–Add water
–Shake well before use
For David – I think he'll want to use this as an aftershave so I'll use some refreshing witch hazel in his spritz:
* 1 tablespoon witch hazel
* 4 drops of essential oils (Valor for David)
* 6 oz. of distilled water
Both of these will go in a pretty cobalt blue spray bottle ordered from Abundant Health.
And of course, when they want to know how to get more – I send them home with a Young Living catalog!!!

For more than 20 years the World Ski and Snowboard Festival has brought together snow sports, music, arts and mountain culture in the largest festival of its kind in North America. It also marks the end of the snow season in Whistler and it sends it off with a bang.

Mark your calendar for April 10-15, 2018 and welcome the return of a legendary ski race along with crowning snowboard champions, reveling in the creativity of filmmakers, photographers, thought-leaders and artists and finally soak in the sounds of musicians and DJs that all make the WSSF the year-end event you can't miss. No other festival brings together these different facets of snow sport and culture to the degree WSSF does.
Here's what's new, making a comeback, and simply unmissable at WSSF 2018.

The Saudan Couloir Ski Race Extreme returns to WSSF 2018 after a 20+ year hiatus.

The 2018 iteration of the race is set to be a festival highlight, and with registration open to the public it promises to bring a mix of competitors to the table, from the world's top pros to amateur athletes ready to test their mettle on this infamous course.

Traditionally, a crowd well-over 10,000 deep turns out to witness the magic of Big Air, as some of the best riders show what progression looks like and lay it all out on the line.
Wait, there's more!
The WSSF Music Series has announced that A Tribe Called Red and Jazzy Jeff will be performing during the Big Air comps, and Mountain Magic bringing a host of international DJ's for the finale party of the winter season – The END.

>I haven't been very enchanted by this city in the year that I've lived here. Perhaps that's because I haven't seen as much of it as I would like to; my own fault, of course. I was spoiled by living across from Humboldt Park for four years, which I found far more lovely with its little streams and paths and fishing docks than Hefner Lake (a mile from my home), although Hefner's 9.4 mile running/biking path isn't to be taken lightly. And of course neither can hold a candle to the backwoods of the house in South Dakota, with the acres of trees and grasses and hilly roads. How I miss the Black Hills.
It was another unusually cold day here, 20 degrees, bright and sunny, but fortunately easy on the wind, which is also unusual. I wanted soup, and to bake warm, comforting loaves of bread. And although John was keen on the bread idea, he's a little souped out. I'm a little breaded out – my body is cranky with it. Too much gluten, not enough green leafy vegetables.
So instead of staying indoors and baking bread (and probably eating it), I opted to do my 4 mile run – must work the mileage back up slowly – outdoors. Seven other runners out there, too, the trail all to ourselves. Usually we're outnumbered by hardcore bikers, but not today. The cold was almost unnoticeable under the clarity of the blue sky, the bright sunlight, the shadows of frozen aspens striping the running path.
Kitty's watching me type. He's wearing his happy face.

When our lips speak together2007/06/05
[Obra de Audrey Kawasaki]
Kiss me. Two lips kiss two lips, and openness is ours again. Our "world". Between us, the movement from inside to outside, from outside to inside, knows no limits. It is without end. These are exchanges that no mark, no mouth can ever stop. (…) You kiss me, and the world enlarges until the horizon vanishes. Are we unsatisfied? Yes, if that means taha we are never finished. If our pleasure consists of moving and being moved by each other, endlessly. (…)
Don´t fret about the "right" word. There is none. No truth between our lips. Everything has the right to be. Everything is worth exchanging, without privileges or refusals. Exchange? Everything can be exchanged when nothing is bought. Between us, ther are no owners and no purchasers, no dterminable objects and no prices. Our bodies are enriched by our mutual pleasure.
Extractos de Luce Irigaray, 1980, "When our lips speak together", Signs, 6, 1.

Conservatives know the bias that's evident in the press…
Even though the MSM (mainstream media) claims otherwise. But it's still funny to point out the rank hypocrisy we see on a daily basis.
We all heard about the Mark Foley scandal (was it a scandal, really? Maybe more of an "affair"–as in the Dreyfus Affair) where an old man that was anonymous to most Americans tapping his foot in a bathroom stall made headlines all over the country.
But, have you heard anything about the Chair of the Ways and Means Committee self-dealing on a mortgage in the Dominican Republic and avoiding paying taxes for almost 20 years on rental income?
Here's a story on Charlie Rangel and his real scandal involving these charges. I haven't seen a single headline anywhere. Have you?
Amazing how the press can stifle any news they consider adverse to their liberal friends in Washington. Thank goodness for the "alternative" media.

I know everyone is anxious to find out what object I've chosen to use in some of my photographs on the cruise. But first, I must fill in some background. It all begins in high school with an English assignment following our reading of Moby Dick. My friend, Kathi and I, were in an accelerated English program, which more or less meant that they made it up as the went along. At the time of this assignment, we were being taught by a student teacher who allowed us to choose whatever we wanted to do for our assignment.
We decided, as the creative geniuses we thought we were, to write a parody of Moby Dick. As crazy as we were creative, we named our book Doby Mick. Doby Mick being a walrus rather than a mighty whale with an attitude.
Let me preface the following; This book was a work of fiction, any resemblance of characters to persons living or dead is purely intentional, I mean, coincidental.
.First, we needed a protagonist and we couldn't think of anyone more capable of causing agony than our very own lead English teacher. For with her malicious red pencil she would slash and burn her way through our compositions as if she was leading Sherman's March through Georgia. She would then place the offending paper on the overhead projector and it would appear on the wall ten feet tall (or so it seemed to the hapless writer). The agony would continue as the paper was further critiqued by the erstwhile teacher and the doomed author of the piece longed only for the floor to open and swallow her. Despite her best efforts, however, she did not deter me from writing, as is obvious to anyone reading my posts.
. We named the pencil Herman, and being a pencil, he could write and therefore was chosen to begin the book with the line, "Call me Herman. Only I have survived to tell thee the tale." We chose the name Professor Roberts, later to be known as Captain Roberts for our protagonist and to.to round out the crew, we scrambled the letters in our student teacher's last name and he became Kokonets Quomodo, the captain's cannibal friend (more about this later).
The book was exciting and topical, drawing in information learned in our other classes as well. For instance, the ship was named the Peapod (we were learning about Gregor Mendel, the founder of the study of genetics, and his research cultivating pea plants). In their quest for Doby Mick, the Peapod comes up against Scylla and Charybdis (Grreek Mythology). and finally,on Shakespeare's birthday, they encounter Doby Mick. The great battle ensues and you'd have to read the book to find out how it ends, but suffice it to say you could (If you don't have a life, that is) read Moby Dick — it's a close copy.
Unfortunately, one of the writers who shall remain nameless, loaned the only copy of the book ( Hey, this was 1970, folks, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, in the age before computers, home printers and copy machines.) to a classmate who failed to return it. If anyone out there has that copy write a comment and let me know. I'd love to have it back,but realize it is probably long gone. All that remains is our two page synopsis. Such a loss to the world of literature.
Needless to say, we received an A for our efforts, but were advised to put it in a locked trunk in our attic by our somewhat embarrassed student teacher. You see, it wasn't until he was reading parts of our novel out loud to the class that he realized who Kokonets Quomodo was based on. The realization was evident in the flush of red that began at his collar and worked its way up his face. Thus the" lock it in your attic" comment. He survived his year with us and actually came back the next year as a fully fledged teacher. If he could survive us, he could survive anything!
IAnd now for the big reveal,. If you haven't guessed already, Doby Mick himself will accompany me to Alaska. He wants to meet a humpback whale. And so do I.

Well and truely into the third trimester, and beginning to understand how women get over being pregnant and just want their baby now!
This week:
- I am counting down the days of work left (2 weeks) and each day goes by quickly but the aches and pains have reared their ugly head to make these last couple of work weeks difficult for me. It seems all the common pregnancy aches and pains showed up to the party - back pain, swelling, sciatica, and the latest and possibly worst - carpal tunnel. Numb and tingly fingers all day and no strength to grip anything strongly. BUT it is all temporary and I just need to get through the next 2 months and all symptoms 'should' ease. I'm holding on to that! And trying not to be too much of a Complainy McComplainerson!
- Antenatal classes are going well, meeting some cool new couples and discovering that a lot of people work in IT like Dave. I think 90% of guys we have met lately work with computers. Crazy I tell ya.
- Baby C's bassinet is all set up ready to go. We got a foam mattress made (Para Rubber - $14) and I bought some waterproof plastic/fabric which I sewed into a protective cover for the foam. I also bought some soft flannelette material which will become fitted sheets.
- Our scan went well the other week, Baby C is growing nicely and is nice and comfortable in there.
- The movements I feel now are getting more familiar. I think I am able to tell which body part is trying to busta move, mostly her feet or her bum sticking out.
- Some amazing friends of mine are being secret squirrels and are busy organising my baby shower for tomorrow! I have no idea what will happen but I have a sneaky feeling Baby C will be super duper spoiled! Plus food. Food is always a good option!
- I am still downing iced chocolates all the time and full sized meals now have trouble fitting into my stomach (which is sitting up under my ribs!).
- Dave and I are now realizing how soon it will be that we meet our baby daughter! We can't wait for our lives to be turned upside down and fall in love with this tiny human. I can't imagine at all what she will look like, how a mixture between Dave and I will influence her features. But until we meet her, I hope she stays well inside my tummy and grows perfectly.

Heirloom Varieties, especially when talking vegetables. They are much more organic (a huge trend) and colorful than the standards we've been forced to plant for so many years. Organic tomatoes, peppers, and even melons make interesting choices for your garden.
Rooftop Garden Spaces. You don't have to live in a city apartment building to utilize some unusual spaces. If you have a flat roofed garage, consider using that space to create a green space. Add some steps and some railing, a seat or two and some colorful plants and you have an additional room for your home.
Everyone has a favorite plant that gives huge impact, but do they have the space for that plant? Often the answer is no, and that's where dwarf tree and shrub varieties can fill that void. Dwarf varieties need little room and less care than their larger relations. True dwarf varieties rarely reach a height over 3 feet and this gives the gardener with minimal space an opportunity to truly express themselves with punch. There are a number of plants, including hydrangea, butterfly bush and crepe myrtle, that come in dwarf varieties and give the gardener with a small space the opportunity to garden to impress.
Urban and Suburban Vegetable gardens have become increasingly popular in today's world. Producing your own organic vegetables is a trend that we don't see ending. Not only does it save you money, but it's a healthier choice, as well. That said, vegetable gardens have taken on a new look as well. Design and visual appeal are important and urban gardeners everywhere are taking on the challenge.
People are continuing to utilize their outdoor spaces in bigger and better ways. Part of that utliization has given homeowners the opportunity to personalize their outdoor spaces with decorative touches. Yard art, fountains, furniture, table settings, lighting and color schemes are becoming just as important as indoor decorating, and the products available are exciting and new.
With a little inspiration, some inner creativity and the desire to enhance your outdoor spaces, these trends for 2012 can turn the outdoors into the favorite part of your home.

Reliance Industries sells US shale block for $126 million
RIL plans to exit shale gas business in US
Reliance Industries to raise $2.5 bn to fund telecom loans
RIL sells stake in US shale gas biz with Carrizo for $126 mn
RIL Q2 earnings: Will Jio hit Reliance show? Here is what analysts say
Reliance Industries (RIL) on Friday announced that a subsidiary of its Reliance Holding USA has closed the sale of its upstream Marcellus shale assets in America to BKV Chelsea for $126 million.
The Mukesh Ambani-led RIL said that Reliance Marcellus II has sold its interest in the shale gas assets in northeastern and central Pennsylvania state in the US to BKV Chelsea, an oil and gas affiliate of American investment firm Kalnin Ventures.
The sale transaction of the assets, currently operated by Carrizo Oil and Gas, closed on November 21, an RIL statement said here.
In a transaction announced last month, "Reliance agreed to sell its entire working interest in these upstream assets to BKV Chelsea for purchase consideration of $126 million with an effective date of April 1, 2017," it said.
"Additionally, under the definitive documents, a contingent amount of up to $11.25 million may be paid to Reliance between years 2018 to 2020 based on certain gas price thresholds being achieved," it added.
RIL had bought a 60 per cent stake in the assets for $392 million in 2010. Its operator, the Houston-based Carrizo Oil & Gas has also exited from the investment, Reliance had said.
In 2010, RIL invested in the US shale gas business, which began incurring losses owing to the extended global crude oil price slump. Prior to making a recovery this year, oil prices had earlier fallen by more than 50 per cent in less than two years due to a supply glut, from levels of over $120 a barrel.
In fact, the 13-nation Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cartel is due to meet on November 30 to consider extending production cuts introduced since the start of this year in a bid to lower global inventories and support prices.

Can I Sell Bitshares On Amazon – Your Wealth is in The Cloud – The Affluence Network
We would like to thank you for coming to us in looking for "Can I Sell Bitshares On Amazon" online. As one of the oldest forms of making money is in money lending, it is a fact that you can do this with cryptocurrency. Most of the lending websites now focus on business of Bitcoin, but I'm sure there will be one or two who'll already have arrived in/nearby which will give other currencies. Some websites are now out: valves: these are websites where you fill in a captcha after a certain time period and are rewarded with a little number of coins for that faucet. You can see the www.cryptofunds.co site to find some lists of tap into the money of your choice in the Knowledge Base section. Some websites of tap include: Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin marketplaces have quite different dynamics. The new ones are constantly popping up which means they do not have lots of market data and historical perspective for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have rather poor liquidity as well. How to develop a sensible plan and test it in the light of these issues? Anyone can become a Bitcoin miner running applications with specialized hardware. Mining applications listen for broadcast transactions on the peer-to-peer network and perform the appropriate tasks to process and affirm these transactions. Bitcoin miners do this because they can get transaction fees paid by users for faster transaction processing, and new bitcoins in existence are under denominated formulas. Cryptocurrency is freeing people to transact cash and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in a similar way, but in addition they participate in more sophisticated smart contracts. Multiple signatures allow a trade to be supported by the network, but where a particular number of a defined group of folks agree to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This enables progressive dispute mediation services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could allow a third party to approve or reject a trade in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their cash. Unlike cash and other payment systems, the blockchain always leaves public evidence a transaction happened. This can be possibly used within an appeal against companies with deceptive practices. Bitcoin is the principal cryptocurrency of the net: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, global, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there's no governments, banks, or some other regulatory agencies. Therefore, it's more resistant to crazy inflation and corrupt banks. The advantages of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy risks. Security and privacy can easily be realized by just being bright, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn't set your entire bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be secured by removing any identity of possession from the wallets and thereby keeping you anonymous. Only a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, this means the cost a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Lots of people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the variety of bitcoins that are truly circulating in the exchanges. Moreover, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Thus, even the most diligent buyer could not buy all existing bitcoins. This situation is just not to suggest that markets are not vulnerable to price manipulation, yet there exists no requirement for big amounts of cash to transfer market prices up or down. The slightest occasions in the world economy can change the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile.

Ethereum is an incredible cryptocurrency platform, nevertheless, if growth is too fast, there may be some issues. If the platform is adopted fast, Ethereum requests could improve drastically, and at a rate that exceeds the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under a situation like this, the whole platform of Ethereum could become destabilized because of the increasing costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum platform and ether. Instability of demand for ether can lead to a negative change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based company which could result in company being unable to continue to run or to stop operation. The physical Internet backbone that carries data between the various nodes of the network has become the work of several firms called Internet service providers (ISPs), including firms that offer long distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local conduit, which ultimately connects in households and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only happen through any of these ISPs, players like degree 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP manages its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private companies, and sometimes by Authorities, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have arrangements with suppliers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and companies who desire to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the information to flow without interruption, in the appropriate area at the perfect time.
While none of these organizations "possesses" the Internet collectively these companies determine how it works, and recognized rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that is taking place to ascertain how things work and what happens if something goes wrong. To get a domain name, for example, one needs consent from a Registrar, which includes a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to connect to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to work with the issue and the solution developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you have someone to call to get it repaired. If the problem is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in place and service level agreements, which govern the manner in which these issues are resolved.
The benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't governed by any focused company. No one can tell the miners to update, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that is something that as a dedicated advocate badge of honour, and is identical to the way the Internet works. But as you understand now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that govern how it works current constitutional problems to the user. Blockchain technology has none of that. Lots of people choose to use a currency deflation, notably those who want to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some uses than others. Fiscal solitude, for example, is excellent for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign funding. We need a steady cryptocurrency for use in commerce; if you're living pay check to pay check, it would happen as part of your wealth, with the remainder reserved for other currencies. For most users of cryptocurrencies it's not crucial to understand how the process operates in and of itself, but it is simply vital that you understand that there is a procedure for mining to create virtual currency. Unlike monies as we know them today where Governments and banks can simply choose to print unlimited quantities (I am not saying they're doing thus, only one point), cryptocurrencies to be operated by users using a mining program, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation. You have probably noticed this often times where you generally distribute the great word about crypto. "It's not erratic? What goes on when the cost accidents? " sofar, several POS systems provides free conversion of fiat, relieving some concern, but until the volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, many people will undoubtedly be hesitant to keep any. We have to find a method to struggle the volatility that's inherent in cryptocurrencies. When searching on the internet forCan I Sell Bitshares On Amazon, there are many things to ponder.

Advocates of cryptocurrencies announce that kind of digital income isn't controlled with a main bank system and is not thus susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Because there are always a minimal number of products, this money's value is based on market forces, letting entrepreneurs to trade over cryptocurrency transactions. Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put into circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to make more. The mining process is what produces more of the coin. It may be useful to consider the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are the same. Mining crypto coins means you'll really get to keep the total rewards of your efforts, but this reduces your likelihood of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have higher chance of solving a block, but the benefit will be divided between all members of the pool, according to the number of "shares" won.
If you're considering going it alone, it really is worth noting that the software configuration for solo mining can be more complicated than with a swimming pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter path. This option also creates a secure flow of earnings, even if each payment is modest compared to fully block the reward. The sweetness of the cryptocurrencies is the fact that scam was proved an impossibility: because of the dynamics of the protocol in which it's transacted. All purchases on the crypto currency blockchain are irreversible. Once you're paid, you get paid. This isn't anything shortterm wherever your web visitors could challenge or need a discounts, or use unethical sleight of palm. In-practice, most professionals would be a good idea to work with a cost processor, because of the irreversible dynamics of crypto currency orders, you should make certain that stability is challenging. With any kind of crypto currency may it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or any of the numerous other altcoins, thieves and hackers may potentially access your personal tips and so grab your cash. Unfortunately, you most likely can never have it back. It's very important for you yourself to follow some excellent safe and sound routines when working with any cryptocurrency. This can protect you from most of these damaging functions. Here is the coolest thing about cryptocurrencies; they do not physically exist anywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you look at a special address for a wallet featuring a cryptocurrency, there is no digital information held in it, like in precisely the same manner that a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It truly is nothing more than a representation of value, but there is no genuine tangible sort of that value. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be confiscated or frozen or audited by the banks and the law. They don't have spending limits and withdrawal limitations imposed on them. No one but the owner of the crypto wallet can determine how their wealth will be managed. If you are looking for Can I Sell Bitshares On Amazon, look no further than The Affluence Network.

Entrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency movement may be wise to explore possibilities for making substantial ammonts of cash with various kinds of online marketing.There could be a rich reward for anyone daring enough to brave the cryptocurrency marketplaces.Bitcoin design provides an informative example of how one might make a lot of money in the cryptocurrency marketplaces. Bitcoin is an amazing intellectual and technical accomplishment, and it's created an avalanche of editorial coverage and venture capital investment opportunities. But not many people understand that and lose out on very lucrative business models made accessible because of the growing use of blockchain technology. The transactions of Bitcoins are recorded in ledgers which are referred to as Blockchains. The ledgers use incredibly complex technology for them to work. The notion is very straightforward than you believe. The Blockchain allows two parties to create a smart contract. The contract can be created between two firms in a platform known It should be hard to get more little increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study how to read these Candlestick charts! And I found these two rules to be true: having small increases is more lucrative than trying to fight up to the summit. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it's better to examine books than wait for order confirmation when you believe the cost is going down. Second, there's more volatility and reward in currencies that haven't made it to the profitableness of sites like Coinwarz.

Wilhelm's blade sunk into the brigand's gut. He slammed his pistol into the thief's chest, firing point blank, blasting the poor bastard from the end of his sword in a cloud of heavy stinking smoke. From his flank, another foe appeared, bursting through the choking sooty mess, sword raised to strike. Wilhelm spun around, barely deflecting the blow with his smoking pistol. He tossed the hand gun aside, reaching for his belt, and drawing his long sharp Tilean stiletto. He came down fast on the unbalanced ruffian, slicing with the dagger, cutting nothing but smoke, then bouncing of leather, hidden beneath the man's cloak.
The brigand was quick to counter, making another sweeping strike across Wilhelm's knees, connecting with a loud crack! The ruffian watched stunned and wide eyed as Wilhelm fell, and what appeared to be a wooden leg came free, collapsing to the dusty road with the rest of him in a broken heap.
The bandit wasted no more time, lunging at his downed prey. Wilhelm rolled for his dropped sword, wildly swinging away the first attack, but the brigand was raising his weapon for the final blow. In a groggy panic, Wilhelm found his other hand on his battered wooden leg, and clasping it, he threw his body forward, striking with the unlikely weapon. The wooden leg connected with a knee, and the brigand dropped, wincing and losing grip on his blade. Wilhelm struck again and again, bludgeoning his foe, then gathering the last of his strength, he drove his sword into the man's chest, killing him.
Wilhelm collapsed onto his back, exhausted. Through the slowly dispersing cloud of black-powder smoke, he could not see much, but could hear horses and voices approaching. He was too tired to look. He grimaced, and clenched the blood splattered wooden leg in his hand. Summoning the last of his energy, he roared, hauling himself around ready to strike. His fiery glare was met by the face of an armoured Warden, dropping down from his tall horse and striding his way. Wilhelm let out an exhausted laugh, dropping his wooden leg, and reaching out his hand to meet an armoured glove...
