Louis Letrush
I got "Frost" and I did what my friend wanted me to do. I killed Louis Letrush.

I got the "Closed Imperial Helmet" with enchanted heavy "Imperial armor" and unlike my old saved game I don't have lots of stuff and little quests.

This is going to be my last blog.

Skyrim plans 3

I didn't get "Frost" yet because it took a long time to buy the "Breezehome" and upgrade it and go all the way up to "High Hrothgar". I bought all of the upgrades for my "Breezehome" and I made Meeko wait at the "Breezehome" because I am starting to fight enemies that are to strong for Meeko and I want to use Meeko for hunting only.

When I was following the trail to Ivarstead I encountered a Dark Brotherhood assassin and it was so so so so weak and I thought they were stronger he couldn't even kill a dog, and a normal bandit can.

I am going to try to get "Frost" today because when I run I sometimes stop and I have to wait for awhile.

When I find a pack of bandits and when they notice me I make them follow me on to a boat and I beat the crap out of every single one. Recognize that TF2 players from meet the soldier.

Skyrim Plans 2

Steelplate armor
I didn't get "Frost" or the "Breezehome" because I was busy playing "Halo CE". So I am going to try to do all I said on "Skyrim Plans 1" today.

I like wearing light armor because they don't take so much weight and you run faster. The light armor I'm using is enchanted Dragonscale armor. Steelplate armor is mostly used by bandit leaders with out the helmet. Bandits are always using Scaled armor and Iron armor. Bandits always use steel weapons and iron, steel, hide or banded iron shields.

Scaled armor
The materials for crafting Dragon Armors are much more common than the materials needed for their competitor's Daedric and Glass armors.

I mostly use enchanted armor and weapons because I am very good with enchanted stuff.

Skyrim is not the only game I like to play I like to play other games like Halo CE and CoD BLack Ops. Skyrim is just the only thing I want to talk about.

Skyrim Plans 1

Frost(Horse).jpg
Frost
I got Meeko but I didn't get Shadowmere because it will take too much time and I got lots of stuff to do. I got lost while trying to find the trail to "Ivarstead". Instead of Shadowmere, I will get a horse called Frost. Frost has more health and stamina than regular horses but less than Shadowmere. Frost appears outside Black-Briars Lodge during the quest "Promises to Keep". Getting Frost is kind of hard because first I have to steal it and bring Frost to Louis Letrush. Their are 3 way to get Frost, kill Louis, persuade Louis or pay Louis. My friend says kill him but I will just pay him because I have lots of money.

I didn't buy a house in "Whiterun" yet because I keep on forgetting. When I find "Ivarstead" and discover "High Hrothgar" I will go to "Whiterun" and buy a house. When I buy a house I will tell Meeko to wait in the house because I fight lots of enemies that are to strong for Meeko.

Simple Animals

Sponge
Almost all animal cells are organized into tissues. Sponges are animals of the phylum Porifera. A sponge's body is hollow and is held in shape by the mesohyl, a jelly-like substance made mainly of collagen and reinforced by a dense network of fibers also made of collagen. The inner surface is covered with choanocytes, cells with cylindrical or conical collars surrounding one flagellum per choanocyte. Sponges are freaking simple. So simple that they can't even move. Sponges just filter water for food just like bacteria. Sponges are classified as animals because they are multicellular, heterotrophic, and lack cell walls. Sponges are the simplest animals. They are classified as animals because they are multicellular, heterotrophic, and lack cell walls. They lack true tissues and organs, and have internal skeletons of spongin and/ or spicules of calcium carbonate or silica. Sponges have no body symmetry. The shapes of the bodies of sponges are adapted for maximal efficiency of water flow. Water enters through the central cavity, deposits nutrients, and leaves through a hole called the osculum. All sponges are sessile aquatic animals. Although there are freshwater species, the great majority are marine (salt water) species, ranging from tidal zones to depths exceeding 8,800 m (5.5 mi). Jellyfish are animals of the phylum Cnidaria.Jellyfish are found in every ocean, from the surface to the deep sea. A few jellyfish inhabit 
freshwater. Large, often colorful, jellyfish are common in coastal zones worldwide. Jellyfish have.
roamed the seas for at least 500 million years,and possibly 700 million years or more, making them 
the oldest multi-organ animal. Cephalopods are really smart. Cephalopods became dominant during the Ordovician period, represented by primitive nautiloids. Octopi and Squids are Cephalopods. If you just do a youtube search on Octopi you will see all kinds of videos of them opening jars stealing people's video cameras. Diploblasty is a condition of the blastula in which there are two primary germ layers: the ectoderm and endoderm.Diploblastic organisms are organisms which develop from such a blastula, and include cnidaria and ctenophora, formerly grouped together in the phylum Coelenterata, but later understanding of their differences resulted in them being placed in separate phyla.

The endoderm allows them to develop true tissue. This includes tissue associated with the gut and associated glands. The ectoderm on the other hand gives rise to the epidermis, the nervous tissue, and if present, nephridia.

Simpler animals, such as sea sponges, have one germ layer and lack true tissue organisation.

All the more complex animals (from flat worms to humans) are triploblastic with three germ layers (a mesoderm as well as ectoderm and endoderm). The mesoderm allows them to develop true organs.

Jellyfish have no brain nor central nervous system, but employ a loose network of nerves, located in the epidermis, which is called a "nerve net".

The Renaissance

The Renaissance was a cultural movement that profoundly affected European intellectual life in the early modern period. Beginning in Italy, and spreading to the rest of Europe by the 16th century, its influence was felt in literature, philosophy, art, music, politics, science, religion, and other aspects of intellectual inquiry. Renaissance scholars employed the humanist method in study, and searched for realism and human emotion in art. The Renaissance saw the rebirth of European culture. The Renaissance has a long and complex historiography. Venice and Genoa both got filthy rich through trade, but the Venetians became the richest state of all. There is a consensus that the Renaissance began in Florence, Tuscany in the 14th century. Various theories have been proposed to account for its origins and characteristics, focusing on a variety of factors including the social and civic peculiarities of Florence at the time; its political structure; the patronage of its dominant family, the Medici; and the migration of Greek scholars and texts to Italy following the Fall of Constantinople at the hands of the Ottoman Turks. Renaissance was originally Italian. Michelet defined the 16th-century Renaissance in France as a period in Europe's cultural history that represented a break from the Middle Ages, creating a modern understanding of humanity and its place in the world. During the Renaissance, money and art went hand in hand. Artists depended totally on patrons while the patrons needed money to sustain geniuses. Wealth was brought to Italy in the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries by expanding trade into Asia and Europe. Silver mining in Tyrol increased the flow of money. Luxuries from the Eastern world, brought home during the Crusades, increased the prosperity of Genoa and Venice. The Renaissance was not really a thing. In all, the Renaissance could be viewed as an attempt by intellectuals to study and improve the secular and worldly, both through the revival of ideas from antiquity, and through novel approaches to thought. Some scholars, such as Rodney Stark,play down the Renaissance in favor of the earlier innovations of the Italian city states in the High Middle Ages, which married responsive government, Christianity and the birth of capitalism. This analysis argues that, whereas the great European states (France and Spain) were absolutist monarchies, and others were under direct Church control, the independent city republics of Italy took over the principles of capitalism invented on monastic estates and set off a vast unprecedented commercial revolution which preceded and financed the Renaissance. Nicolaus Copernicus never had children or a wife. Copernicus was born on 19 February 1473 in the city of Thorn, in the province of Royal Prussia, in the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland. Most people were unaware of the Renaissance. His father was a merchant from Krakow. Nicolaus was the youngest of four children. His brother Andreas (Andrew) became an Augustinian canon at Frauenburg (Frombork). His sister Barbara, named after her mother, became a Benedictine nun and, in her final years (she died after 1517), prioress of a convent in Culm (Kulm) (Chełmno). His sister Katharina married the businessman and Thorn city councilor Barthel Gertner and left five children, whom Copernicus looked after to the end of his life. Life expectancy went down during the Renaissance. Among the great polymaths of the Renaissance, Copernicus was a mathematician, astronomer, jurist with a doctorate in law, physician, quadrilingual polyglot, classics scholar, translator, artist, Catholic cleric, governor, diplomat and economist. In Copernicus’ day, people were often called after the places where they lived. Like the Silesian village that inspired it, Copernicus’ surname has been spelled variously. Today the English-speaking world knows the astronomer principally by the Latinized name, "Nicolaus Copernicus."

The surname likely had something to do with the local Silesian copper-mining industry, though some scholars assert that it may have been inspired by the dill plant (in Polish, "koperek" or "kopernik") that grows wild in Silesia.

Astrid.png
Astrid
I didn't get Meeko because I forgot about him and I didn't discover "Solitude" yet so I have to walk all the way there first.Then to "Meeko's Shack". After I get Meeko I will go to "Windhelm" and to a place called "Aventus Aretino". There I will talk to a boy preforming the black sacrament and get the quest called "Innocence Lost". After the player finishes that quest he goes to sleep for 24 hours in any place. The player will wake up in a "Abandoned Shack" with Astrid on a shelf. The player is asked by Astrid to kill one of three people in the room Killing one, two, or all of the victims will earn the player an invitation to join "The Dark Brotherhood".

I am going to finish all of "The Dark Brotherhood" quest until "The Dark Brotherhood Forever". After that I will do all the main quest.

Meeko.jpg
Meeko
My friend convinced me to get the enchanted Dragonscale armor, by telling me how great it was.

DOGGGggg.jpg
Vigilance
I am going to buy a house in Whiterun. I am also going to try to find Meeko and make him my follower. If I can't find him I will just buy "Vigilance". I will also join the "Dark Brotherhood" just to have Shadowmere as my follower.

I am going to try to get all the Archery, one handed and blocking perks because those are the weapons I am going to use a lot.

After I join the "Dark Brotherhood" and finish all the quests until "Dark Brotherhood Forever" I will join the "Companions" and finish all the quest until I am leader of the them. then I will go and do all the main quest. I might need to join "The College of Winterhold" because in one main quest I have to talk to an Orc in "The College of Winterhold".

Comparative anatomy

Comparative anatomy is the study of similarities and differences in the anatomy of different organisms. It is closely related to evolutionary biology and phylogeny (the evolution of species). Comparative anatomy helps us learn are evolution and are shared ancestries. Locomotion is a really good sign that an organism is an animal. Thomas Henry Huxley was the father of Comparative Anatomy and the father of modern Paleontology and he invented the word agnostic to describe his spiritual views and he was the first person to include that birds evolved to small carnivorous dinosaurs. Huxley was born in England in 1825. Muscle Tissue is made of Actin & Myosin. Nerve Tissue generates & conducts electrical signals. Comparative anatomy has long served as evidence for evolution, it indicates that various organisms share a common ancestor. Also, it assists scientists in classifying organisms based on similar characteristics of their anatomical structures. Comparative anatomy supports Darwin's theory of descent with modification, also known as evolution. A common example of comparative anatomy is the similar bone structures in forelimbs of cats, whales, bats, and humans. All of these appendages consist of the same basic parts; yet, they serve completely different functions. The skeletal parts which form a structure used for swimming, such as a fin, would not be ideal to form a wing, which is better-suited for flight. One explanation for the forelimbs' similar composition is descent with modification. Through random mutations and natural selection anatomical structures gradually became better-adapted to the every organism's respective habitat. Huxley knew Charles Darwin. Huxley connected Paleontology and Biology. Born in 1517 Pierre Belon was a French naturalist who did research and held discussions on dolphin embryos as well as the comparisons between the skeletons of birds to the skeletons of humans. His research led to what is referred to as modern comparative anatomy. Around the same time, Andreas Vesalius was also making some strides of his own. A young anatomist of Flemish descent made famous by a penchant for amazing charts, he was systematically investigating and correcting the anatomical knowledge of the Greek physician Galen. He noticed that many of Galen's observations were not even based on actual humans. Instead, they were based on animals such as oxen.Up until that point, Galen and his teachings had been the authority on human anatomy. The irony is that Galen himself had emphasized the fact that you should make your own observations instead of using those of another. But this advice was lost during the numerous translations of his work. As Vesalius began to uncover these mistakes, other physicians of the time began to trust their own observations more than Galen. An interesting observation made by some of these physicians was the presence of homologous structures in a wide variety of animals which included humans. These observations were later used by Darwin as he formed his theory of Natural Selection. Sir Andrew Huxley won the novel prize for physiology or medicine in 1963. All animal come from the same evolutionary origin. Epithelial tissue covers organs, lines digestive tract, produces slippery fluid. Marco Aurelio Severino also compared various animals, including birds, in his Zootomia democritaea, one of the first works of comparative anatomy. Edward Tyson is regarded as the founder of comparative anatomy. He is credited with determining that marine mammals are, in fact, mammals. Also, he concluded that chimpanzees are more similar to humans than to monkeys because of their arms.
I changed my mind. I am not going to wear the Dragonscale armor because it will take to long to get it. So I will just use the Nightingale armor even though it has a cape. The Nightingale bow and sword are powerful. I wish they made Nightingale arrow and shield. If they did it would be really strong because the Nightingale Sword and Bow are strong. I wish they would remove the cape because it looks terrible with the Nightingale armor.

On my new saved game I want to try being an Imperial because I keep on being a Stormcloak. I am going to try to get all the dragon claws on this saved game because the other saved game was kind of a failure because kept on getting so much quest that I don't even do.

I really really really like Dawnguard because their is a new horse, crossbows, Vampires and Werewolfs.

Sunday, June 24, 2012

I am going to make a new saved game because my other saved game is boring and all the main quests in Skyrim are already finished. The "Companion" quests are now boring because I finished all the fun ones.


I might be a Argonian or a Nord. Their is a 90% chance of me being a Nord because I love Nords. I am going to use the Nightingale bow and Blade but I don't think I am going to use the armor because I don't like capes. The armor I am going to use is Dragonscale armor. The chest piece is going to be "Dragonscale armor of Peerless Knight", "Dragonscale gauntlets of Peerless Archery", "Dragonscale boots of Peerless Sneaking", "Dragonscale helm of Peerless Archery" and the "Dragonscale shield of Peerless Blocking. I really like Archery. I also like Peerless stuff.

My friend really likes the Skyrim theme song so do I.

Columbus and Zheng He

Christopher Columbus discovered America. Historians estimate that between 50 and 100 million indigenous people lived in the pre-Columbian Americas. By 1650, disease, war, and other factors diminished their population to around 8 million. Zheng he was a Muslim. Zheng he became the greatest admiral in Chinese history. Zheng he was a unic. The Chinese wanted to dominate Indian ocean trade. Between 1405 and 1433, the Ming government sponsored seven naval expeditions. The Yongle emperor designed them to establish a Chinese presence, impose imperial control over trade, impress foreign peoples in the Indian Ocean basin and extend the empire's tributary system. It has also been claimed, on the basis of later texts, that the voyages also presented an opportunity to seek out Zhu Yunwen (the previous emperor whom the Yongle emperor had usurped and who was rumored to have fled into exile) – possibly the "largest scale manhunt on water in the history of China". Zheng he was a unic. Zheng he lead huge treasure ships. At the time China was the leading manufacturer of quality goods in the world. They built the "Great Wall" so they could protect China from the Mongols. The Great Wall of China is a series of fortifications made of stone, brick, tamped earth, wood, and other materials, generally built along an east-to-west line across the historical northern borders of China in part to protect the Chinese Empire or its prototypical states against intrusions by various nomadic groups or military incursions by various warlike peoples or forces. Several walls were being built as early as the 7th century BC; these, later joined together and made bigger, stronger, and unified are now collectively referred to as the Great Wall. Especially famous is the wall built between 220–206 BC by the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang. Little of that wall remains. Since then, the Great Wall has on and off been rebuilt, maintained, enhanced; the majority of the existing wall was reconstructed during the Ming Dynasty. Zheng He died during the treasure fleet's last voyage. Although he has a tomb in China, it is empty: he was, like many great admirals, buried at sea. Zheng he led seven expeditions to what the Chinese called "the Western Ocean" (Indian Ocean). He brought back to China many trophies and envoys from more than thirty kingdoms – including King Vira Alakeshwara of Ceylon, who came to China as a captive to apologize to the Emperor. Some recent historians have disputed the existence of Henry's school at Sagres. He had cartographers there, but to what extent Sagres was a center of navigation is a topic of historical debate. Henry was born in 1394 in Porto, probably when the royal couple was living in the city's old mint, now called Casa do Infante (Prince's House). He was the third son born to Philippa of Lancaster, the sister of King Henry IV of England. His sister died at a young age so he never got to have a relationship with her. Henry was 21 when he, his father and brothers captured the Moorish port of Ceuta in northern Morocco, that had long been a base for Barbary pirates who raided the Portuguese coast, depopulating villages by capturing their inhabitants to be sold in the African slave market. Following this success, Henry started to explore the coast of Africa, most of which was unknown to Europeans. His objectives included finding the source of the West African gold trade and the legendary Christian kingdom of Prester John, and stopping the pirate attacks on the Portuguese coast. At that time the ships of the Mediterranean were too slow and too heavy to make these voyages. Under his direction, a new and much lighter ship was developed, the caravel, which could sail further and faster. In 1419, Henry's father appointed him governor of the province of the Algarve. Zheng he visited Africa, Middle East and India. Emperors are usually male. Portugal has a fair bit of coastline and relatively resource-poor. Columbus and his crew knew the earth was round. He was just wrong about the Earths size. Columbus was not a lucky idiot. Columbus never wrote in his native language. Columbus was not a scholarly man. Yet he studied these books, made hundreds of marginal notations in them and came out with ideas about the world that were characteristically simple and strong and sometimes wrong, the kind of ideas that the self-educated person gains from independent reading and clings to in defiance of what anyone else tries to tell him.

SSSSOOONNGGG 2

I decided to wear the Dragonplate armor with a special shield called "Dragonplate shield of Peerless Blocking". I might not get the helm for the Dragonplate armor because I don't like how it looks. Not because an Orc is wearing it. I am going to use the "Ebony sword of Petrifying" because their is a chance of paralyzing the target for 6 seconds. The "Dragonplate shield of Peerless Blocking" blocks 40% more damage with your shield. Actually I am going to get the helm of the Dragonplate armor because the Ebony sword color and the Dragonplate helm has a similar color. You can get the "Dragonplate shield of Peerless Blocking" and "Ebony Sword of Petrifying" as random loot. Actually I am going to use the Dragonplate chest piece of Peerless Knight it increases heavy armor skill by 25 points. My helm is going to be Dragonplate Helmet of Waterbreathing when you wear it you can swim underwater without drowning.

SSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGG

I am wearing Ancient Nord armor with the "Wuuthrad". When I finish "Glory of the Dead" I will try to find Atub in Largashbur and get the quest "The Cursed Tribe" and get the Volendrung. I might get Dragonplate armor or I might keep the Ancient Nord armor.


I gave up on getting all the perks in Skyrim because it is to hard and takes to long. I am not going to get all the dragon claws. I will not get all the Daedric artifacts, only the ones I want.


I put the video on because It's boring to just read and I think this song is cool.




I didn't use a shield for a long long long long long long long long long long long long LLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGGG time.



Dawnguard is way cooler than Skyrim because you can attack while you are on a horse. SO SO SO SO Cool.

Werewolves are the Coolest Mythical Creatures Ever

I found out that Wolves don't attack you when you are a Werewolves. So every time I travel I will turn into a Werewolves. And pesky bandits, Silver Hands and Imperials are easy to defeat since you have "Scent of Blood". When Werewolves are on a mountain, you have an advantage cause when you hit an enemy they go flying so you can hit enemies off the mountain. Werewolves, are AWESOME!!! Useful too. The enemy of the "Companions" are the "Silver Hand". I am mostly all of the classes because I joined the Companions that are Warrior the Dark brotherhood that are mostly Rogues and the College of Winterhold that are Mages. And I am a thief because every time I see money I find a way to steel it. The Dark Brotherhood will not attack you in either human or werewolf form. This may be because many other Dark Brotherhood members are Werewolves or Vampires themselves, as they often kill without remorse or sorrow.

Werewolfs are Awesome

Werewolf.png
Werewolf
Aela 3.png
Aela the Huntress
I am now a Werewolf because I drank the blood of Aela The Huntress. She is part of The Companions. I went on a rampage on Whiterun. It wasn't really a rampage because I only fought one Stormcloak guard and I didn't even kill him. Werewolfs are really strong, so strong that when they hit a enemy the enemy goes flying. And Werewolfs are really fast when they sprint. When you sprint they sprint on four legs. It is hard to turn when you are a  Werewolf so I don't really sprint so much when I am a Werewolf. When you press the "Z" key as a Werewolf you howl and the howl is called "Scent of Blood". All the enemies that are close to you glow red and start to run away and hide. Most of the people that run away say, "I yield, I yield". The bad thing about transforming into a Werewolf is turning back to a human, you appear with no armor.

Evolution

Rodhocetus or early Whale
Why where all the same. Life on Earth originated and then evolved from a universal common ancestor approximately 3.7 billion years ago. Repeated speciation and the divergence of life can be inferred from shared sets of biochemical and morphological traits or by shared DNA sequences. These homologous traits and sequences are more similar among species that share a more recent common ancestor, and can be used to reconstruct evolutionary histories, using both existing species and the fossil record. Existing patterns of biodiversity have been shaped both by speciation and by extinction. Other naturalists of this time speculated on evolutionary change of species over time according to natural laws. When scientist started studying dinosaur fossils  in the 1820's they though dinosaurs were basically giant Iguanas that's why the first fossil dinosaur was named Iguanadon. Fossils taught use that Whales used to walk. Rodhocetus had a pelvis but it wasn't fused. Rodhocetus is one of several extinct whale genera that possess land mammal characteristics, thus demonstrating the evolutionary transition from land to sea. The first fossils of this species were found in Balochistan Province, Pakistan in 2001 by Philip Gingerich. Dating from about 47 million years ago, they are one of a series of recent discoveries, including the pakicetids, which have thrown considerable light on the previously mysterious evolutionary origin of whales. Biologists agree that descent with modification is one of the most reliably established facts in science. Bat wings are just stretch skin connected to it's long fingers. Scientists continue to study various aspects of evolution by forming and testing hypotheses, constructing scientific theories, using observational data, and performing experiments in both the field and the laboratory. Biologists agree that descent with modification is one of the most reliably established facts in science. In the 17th century the new method of modern science rejected Aristotle's approach, and sought explanations of natural phenomena in terms of laws of nature which were the same for all visible things, and did not need to assume any fixed natural categories, nor any divine cosmic order. But this new approach was slow to take root in the biological sciences, which became the last bastion of the concept of fixed natural types. The ear bones of Rodhocetus are already very whale-like, though the swimming style is very different. Rodhocetus is more obviously aquatic than earlier known species and had large, paddling hind feet to propel it through the water. It also had a strong tail which may have helped to act as a rudder. Many suggest that Rodhocetus may have swum like a modern otter, but through a principal components analysis done in 2003, Philip Gingerich demonstrated that its limb proportions were closer to that of the Russian desman. Rodhocetus balochistanensis is in fact believed to demonstrate a direct evolutionary link to artiodactyls (modern examples of which include hippopotamuses, now believed to be the closest cousin species of the cetaceans). Previous fossil-based hypotheses that whales were directly descended from mesonychids have been largely overturned. John Ray used one of the previously more general terms for fixed natural types, "species", to apply to animal and plant types, but unlike Aristotle he strictly identified each type of living thing as a species, and proposed that each species can be defined by the features that perpetuate themselves each generation. These species were designed by God, but showing differences caused by local conditions. Evolution is any change across successive generations in the inherited characteristics of biological populations. In 1973, evolutionary biologist Theodosius Dobzhansky penned that "nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution", because it has brought to light the relations of what first seemed disjointed facts in natural history into a coherent explanatory body of knowledge that describes and predicts many observable facts about life on this planet. Natural selection is the only known cause of adaptation, but not the only known cause of evolution. Other, nonadaptive causes of evolution include mutation and genetic drift. At the end of 1859, Darwin's publication of On the Origin of Species explained natural selection in detail and in a way that lead to an increasingly wide acceptance of Darwinian evolution. Thomas Henry Huxley applied Darwin's ideas to humans, using paleontology and comparative anatomy to provide strong evidence that humans and apes shared a common ancestry. Some were disturbed by this since it implied that humans did not have a special place in the universe. At the turn of the 20th century, pioneers in the field of population genetics, such as J.B.S. Haldane, Sewall Wright, and Ronald Fisher, set the foundations of evolution onto a robust statistical philosophy. The false contradiction between Darwin's theory, genetic mutations, and Mendelian inheritance was thus reconciled. From a Neo-Darwinian perspective, evolution occurs when there are changes in the frequencies of alleles within a population of interbreeding organisms. For example, the allele for black colour in a population of moths becoming more common. Mechanisms that can lead to changes in allele frequencies include natural selection, genetic drift, genetic hitchhiking, mutation and gene flow. Large-scale gene transfer has also occurred between the ancestors of eukaryotic cells and bacteria, during the acquisition of chloroplasts and mitochondria. It is possible that eukaryotes themselves originated from horizontal gene transfers between bacteria and archaea. An example of larger-scale transfers are the eukaryotic bdelloid rotifers, which have received a range of genes from bacteria, fungi and plants. Viruses can also carry DNA between organisms, allowing transfer of genes even across biological domains.
I got all the dragon priest masks and now I'm going to get all the daedric artifacts. I got the Azura's star and I tried to get the Ebony Blade by finishing the quest " The Whispering Door" but the person that gives the quest won't give it to me. So I won't get the Ebony Blade. I will get Ebony Mail but I have to wait until I am on level thirty. Until I am on level thirty I will get Dragon claws.



I joined the Companions. I am under the Skyforge in Whiterun where I am about to be a Werewolf and go on a rampage, until I am unconscious. I am always wondering why Werewolfs and Vampires are enemies. On movies, books and games.

In Dawnguard their are Crossbows and new perks. I am going to be a Werewolf I really really really really like Werewolf because they're awesome.

Russia

Russia is complicated. They're was a Russian empire or even a kingdom the Kievan Rus. Kievan Rus was a powerful city state. Most people believe the settlers of the Kiev were Slavic people who migrated around the Black Sea but they're is an older theory that the settlers of Kiev were actually like Vikings. Trade was hugely important to the Kiev's. The Rus traded raw materials like fur, wax and also slaves. they relied on agriculture. The Kievan Rus were replaced by the Mongols. The Kiev's hated the Mongols. During the prehistoric eras the vast steppes of Southern Russia were home to tribes of nomadic pastoralists. In classical antiquity the Pontic Steppe was known as Scythia. Remnants of these long-gone steppe civilizations were discovered in the course of the 20th century in such places as Ipatovo, Sintashta, Arkaim,and Pazyryk. In the latter part of the 8th century BC, Greek merchants brought classical civilization to the trade emporiums in Tanais and Phanagoria. The Kiev's relied on agriculture. The ruler of Kiev was called the "Grand Prince". The Grand Prince became a model for future Russian kings. The early Grand Prince made a fateful decision that they all became Byzantine Christians. Ivan The Great created the first centralized Russian state. By doing that he probably deserves the title "The Great". Ivan The Fourth was better known as Ivan the Terrible. According to some sources, Ivan's spiritual adviser, the priest Sylvester, was also an influential member of the chosen council. Ivan enjoyed torturing animals when he was a kid. Evil, Evil person. In classical antiquity, the Pontic Steppe was known as Scythia. The ancestors of the Russians were the Slavic tribes, whose original home is thought by some scholars to have been the wooded areas of the Pripet Marshes. The Mongols were defeated by people from Moscow. Russian sounds more Slavic than Swedish. The Mongols did what Hitler and Napoleons couldn't do the Mongols Successfully conquered Russia. You can rule Russia like a boss even if your blind. The Russian Revolution in 1917 was triggered by a combination of economic breakdown, war weariness, and discontent with the autocratic system of government, and it first brought a coalition of liberals and moderate socialists to power, but their failed policies led to seizure of power by the Communist Bolsheviks on 25 October. Between 1922 and 1991, the history of Russia is essentially the history of the Soviet Union, effectively an ideologically based state which was roughly conterminous with the Russian Empire before the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. Vladimir Putin knows karate, Judo, Tranquilizes tigers and flies jets. In the 15th century, the grand princes of Moscow went on gathering Russian lands to increase the population and wealth under their rule. The most successful practitioner of this process was Ivan III. Peasants fell into tax debt. The Mongols chose the the grand-princes. Russia wasn't Byzantine, European not really Mongol too. The Mongols rarely attack Moscow. Ivan was the son of Vasili III and his second wife, Elena Glinskaya. When Ivan was three years old, his father died from a boil and inflammation on his leg which developed into blood poisoning. Ivan was proclaimed the Grand Prince of Moscow at his father's request. At first, his mother Elena Glinskaya acted as regent, but she died of what many believe to be assassination by poison when Ivan was only eight years old. According to his own letters, Ivan, along with his younger brother Yuri, often felt neglected and offended by the mighty boyars from the Shuisky and Belsky families. Even today Russia shares many continuities of political culture and social structure with its tsarist and Soviet past. The various East Slavic principalities were united within the Russian Empire in the 18th century. The modern East Slavic states of Belarus, Ukraine and Russia all derive their identity from the early medieval state. Defeating the Mongols made Moscow look like the hero of Russia. The Russians saw the Mongols as Grizzlor. In the 11th and 12th centuries, constant incursions by nomadic Turkic tribes, such as the Kipchaks and the Pechenegs, caused a massive migration of Slavic populations to the safer, heavily forested regions of the north, particularly to the area known as Zalesye. The history of the Russian Federation officially starts in January 1992. Kievan Rus was a medieval polity in Europe, from the late 9th to the mid 13th century, when it disintegrated under the pressure of the Mongol invasion of 1237–1240. Vladimir rose to power in Kiev after the death of his father Sviatoslav I in 972.

I finished all the main quest in Skyrim. Now some of the dragons are in my side but only some.

While I was doing a main quest, I found a dragon priest called "Nahkriin".

I got the shout "Od-ah-viing" and "Storm Call".


I want to get all the dragon Priest masks, daedric artifacts and all the dragon claws. I am also going to try to finish all the side quests and get all the perks. Challenge accepted. I only need four more dragon priest masks. After I do all that I want to get Dawnguard. It will be released in June 26th 2012.



In Dawnguard you can choose to be a Werewolf or a Vampire me and my friend choose to be a Werewolf because the Vampires are like the Imperials and the Werewolfs are like the Stormcloaks.


I didn't do the quest where the Imperials and the Stormcloaks signed the peace treaty because I took over some of the Imperial cities including Whiterun and Solitude.
I got Krosis's mask but I didn't get Otar's because I had no time. I had no time because I was busy finishing "Elder Knowledge" and now I'm doing "Alduin's Bane".


I got the shout "Dragon Rend". The first shout that was created by Nords that's why Dragons can't use it.



Alduin's Bane is the last main quest of Act II. After Act II is "Season Unending". It is when the civil war ends and the Imperials and the Stormcloaks sign a peace treaty. Finally I can now travel in peace. No animals attack me now because I have the shout "Animal Allegiance" you can guess what it does by looking at the name.


When you use Dragon Rend the dragon that your fighting lands.


I'm almost going to learn the shout Od-ah-viing because I am close to the main quest "The Fallen". I almost finished all the main quests. after you finish the whole game you can still do it that's the good thing.

Dragon Priest Masks

Hevnoraak Mask.png
Hevnoraak's Mask
Dragon Priest Shrine
I got the mask called "Hevnoraak's Mask". It belongs to a dragon priest called Hevnoraak. He is located at Valthume. Before you fight him you need to get three vessels of blood.

Krosis Mask.png
Krosis's Mask
Morekei is located at Labyrinthian during the quest "Staff of Magnus".

Krosis is at the dragon lair of Shearpoint.

Otar's Mask I don't know where it is located but I know that it is close to Labyrinthian.

Morokei Mask.png
Morokei's Mask
The masks I have right now are Hevnoraak's and Morokei's. The next Mask I want to get is Krosis's Mask. After Krosis's Mask I will get Otar's Mask.

If I get all the mask I have to go back to the center of Labyrinthian and grab a wooden Dragon Priest mask and wear it and it will bring you back in time when Labyrinthian wasn't a ruin then when you place all the masks the dragon mouth opens and you just grab it.

I am still on the quest "Elder Knowledge" because I was to busy getting Dragon Priest masks.

Console Commmand Help

I had to use a console command to finish the main quest because there was no way to fix it. The main quest is called, "The Cornered Rat". The console command I used, "set stage mq203 5", makes you finish the quest.

The quest I finished are, Alduins Wall and The Throat of the World. I started the quest Elder Knowledge. In this quest I have to find a Elder Scroll.

I met the leader of the Greybeards called Paarthurnax is a Dragon and brother of Alduin. Paarthurnax taught me the shouts, Fire Breath and Clear Skies. I don't know why he taught me Fire Breath.


In won side quest I have to kill Paarthurnax if I want to join the blades but I'm not cause I'm already a Darkbrotherhood assassin and the Arch Mage of The College of Winterhold.

The spell I don't use a lot is Wirlwind Sprint and Slow Time.

I get Angry a lot in Skyrim

I finally got Esbern out of his room by waiting a LONG LONG LONG time!!! I had to wait 60 days, maybe 70 or more in the game. When he opened the door I had to escort him but the quest log said that I still needed to escort him. Delphine says the same thing over and over again. She says "Lets hear what Esbern has to say". It's so ANNOYING!!!.

I finally finished all the college of Winterhold main quest. Now I'm back being Warrior. The weapons I use are the same, "The Mace or Molag bal" and the "Daedric Mace".

While I was escorting Esbern I think Shadowmere died don't worry he response after 15 days in front of the Dark Brotherhood sanctuary beside Falkreath. But I'm not going to get him because of the error where he jumps and flies for awhile I tried doing that on a mountain and I felt like a dragon.

Venice

Venice was made out of hundreds of island on the northern tip of the Adriatic sea. Venice was built on the sea. Venice was literally built for ocean trade, Venice is still trading today but not as much as before because they lost the war against the Turks. Venice didn't have natural resources only fish because they're on the sea. They relied on trade to survive. Venicians became experts on building ships. Not only could they build ships they could also sail them. The Venice has experienced trading with the Islamic world. The Venice had all the pepper. There are no historical records that deal directly with Venice. Some late Roman sources reveal the existence of fishermen on the islands in the original marshy lagoons. From the ninth to the twelfth century Venice developed into a city state. The Republic of Venice seized a number of places on the eastern shores of the Adriatic before 1200, mostly for commercial reasons, because pirates based there were a menace to trade. When the forth crusade needed ships they went to Venice because the Venicians were famous for their ships especially merchant ships. The Egyptian merchants weren't terribly welcome in Europe. Venice imported lots, but mostly grain. The Ottomans was an empire that lasted to 1300 C.E to 1990 making it the longest lasting and riches empire in world history. Suleiman the Magnificent defeated the king of Hungary. He took valuable territory in Mesopotamia and in Egypt. Venice is known for it's glass and it still is. From the ninth to the twelfth century Venice developed into a city state. Venice was a republic not a monarchy or God forbidden empire. Suleiman the Magnificent turn Ottomans into naval power. Suleiman had a huge huge huge hat. Venice became supper rich.Venice never got a tsunami ever but I think they soon will. Venice houses was made out of marble. Saint Mark died in Alexandria but the Venicians claimed him as their own. The Ottomans Kidnapped Christian boys and converted them into Islam and turned them into Janissaries. The Venicians made their money by taxes. Sometime in the first decades of the eighth century the people of the lagoon elected their first leader Ursus. Charlemagne was initially hostile to Venice. Venice is the capital of the Veneto region.The name is derived from the ancient Veneti people who inhabited the region by the 10th century B.C. Venice has been known as the "La Dominante", "Serenissima", "Queen of the Adriatic", "City of Water", "City of Masks", "City of Bridges", "The Floating City", and "City of Canals". Venice has played an important role in the history of symphonic and operatic music, and it is the birthplace of Antonio Vivaldi. Constantinople fell to the Ottomans and was renamed to Istanbul. Pepper masked the taste of spoiled meat. Two merchants stole the body of Saint Mark and hid it in a shipment of pork which the Muslims didn't check very carefully  because they were disgusted by it. Clever merchants. Venice has also been described by the Times Online as being one of Europe's most romantic cities. Venice is renowned for the beauty of its setting, its architecture and its artworks. The city in its entirety is listed as World Heritage Site, along with its lagoon. The Venetians offered asylum to the Exarch Paul, who was in flight from the Lombard Liutprand. Byzantine domination of central and northern Italy was subsequently largely eliminated by the conquest of the Exarchate of Ravenna in 751 by Aistulf. Venice became an imperial power following the Venetian-financed Fourth Crusade, which in 1204 seized and sacked Constantinople and established the Latin Empire.

Taxonomy mostly aboat Carl Linnaes

Portrait of Linnaeus on a brown background with the word "Linne" in the top right corner
Carl Linnaeus
Every living thing on this planet is related to every other living thing on this planet. Carl Linnaeus was a Swede born in 1707 and he was, a Botanist, Physician and a Zoologist. Linnaeus was known as the father of modern Taxonomy. We still use Linnaeus Morphology based idea. At the end of his lifetime the Linnean collection in Uppsala was considered as one of the finest collections of natural history. Domains are Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya. The Bacteria and the Archaea are Prokaryotes. Eukarya makes all the lifeforms with the Nucleus. Archaea is closely related to Eukarya. Animals are multicellular. Rothman showed Linnaeus that botany was a serious subject. The local doctor Kilian Stobaeus offered Linnaeus tutoring and lodging, as well as the use of his library, which included many books about botany. Linnaeus entered the Vaxjo Gymnasium in 1724, where he studied mainly Greek, Hebrew, theology and math course designed for boys preparing for the priesthood. In the last year at the gymnasium, Linnaeus's father visited to ask the professors how his son's studies were progressing. The Trick of Taxonomy is basically figuring out where all of those branches of the evolutionary tree are. Taxonomy isn't about describing life and all of its ridiculous detail, it's about helping humans understand it because it's way to complicated without structure. There are 2,000,000 organism maybe 5,000,000 to 100,000,000. The natural world is one huge grey area. Back then, people grouped organisms by analogous or homoplasmic traits. Structures that appear similar but actually come from completely independent origins. An example of a modern classification is the one published in 2009 by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group for all living flowering plant families. Biological classification is a critical step in the taxonomic process. In numerical taxonomy, the taxonomy is exclusively based on cluster analysis and neighbor joining. New species keep on being discovered all the time. Taxonomies of the more generic kinds of things typically stem from philosophical investigations. 1. The taxon must be given a name based on the 26 letters in the Latin alphabet.   2.The name must be unique.   3. The description must be based on at least one name-column type specimen.   4. It should include reference to the attributes that make the taxon unique.   5. These first four requirements must be published in a work that is obtainable in numerous identical copies, as a permanent scientific record. However, often much more information is included, like the geographic range of the taxon, ecological notes, chemistry, behavior. Historical records show that informally classifying organisms took place at least back to the days of Aristotle. Even taxonomic names published by Linnaeus himself before these dates are considered pre-Linnaean. Taxonomy is mostly about animals. If you go far enough back we all have a common ancestor an organism both you and I are descendant from, or maybe a Starfish or a Blue whale are descendant from. Linnaeus was born from a Peasant family. Bacteria lives everywhere on Earth like inside of you and deep in the Earth's crust. Archaea has a different cell membrane and the Enzymes they use to make RNA, RNA Polymerase is much more like ours. Taxonomy is life's filing system. Plantae contain autotrophs Fungi and animalia contain heterotrophs protista is weird because it contains autotrophs and heterotrophs. Animals are multi-cellular. Cats are in the family carnivora. Taxonomy is a sub-discipline of biology, and is generally practiced by scientists known as "taxonomists", though enthusiastic naturalists are also frequently involved in the publication of new taxa. Taxonomy, or categorization, in the human cognition has been a major area of research in psychology. Back then surnames were just for rich people so Carl just made one up Linnaeus after the Lindon trees that grew on is families homestead. Carl Linnaeus categorized 7,700 plants and 4,400 animals.

I am stuck on a puzzle, "Revealing the Unseen". It is so difficult. I don't even know what to do.


I am going to get the spell tome "Storm Thrall". I might get the Spell tome "Bound Bow" since I'm so good with the bow.


I am starting to like conjure spells because they can summon creatures.


I only have three staffs, The Staff of Icy Spear, The Staff of Chain Lightning and The Staff of Magelight.


I am using "The Blade of Woe" for my Mage.

After the quest "Revealing the Unseen", I'm going to get a Daedric artifact called "Masque of Clavicus Vile" I am going to get it because I want to get all the Daedric artifact. I also want to get Barbas.

Sometimes their is an error where Shadowmere jumps and starts flying.

I tried invisibility and it was awesome I went past a group of Falmer and they didn't care until they heard me.

Mage's Circlet

Skeever
Telekinesis is very very awesome but when I tried it out on a book it didn't go so far so it's not so awesome.

I didn't use Invisibility yet because a Blood Dragon interrupted me when I was about to use it and when I killed the Blood Dragon Skeevers attacked me so I didn't use it.

MAGINVTelekinesis.png
Telekinesis
The place I'm in now is a dwarven ruin called Mzulft and their are lots of enemies there.

I am not going to wear the Mage's Circlet anymore because I look incredibly ugly.

The only place I fight normal dragons is in a high cliff. Mostly frost Dragons.

I want to get lots of Conjuration spells like The Bound Bow and the Storm Thrall.

I am going to wear some armor cause I get killed a lot by Wolfs, Dwarven centurion, and Skeevers. 


I am doing a quest called Revealing the Unseen it takes place in Mzulf.

Telekinesis
I really love Mages now because they're mission are so hard and have lots of puzzles, but when I'm a Warrior I don't get so many puzzles. I am thinking of ditching all my Warrior stuff except my Daedric artifacts.
I want to get the spell Telekinesis, Invisibility and Guardian Circle. I want to get Telekinesis because you can carry anything except people. I want Invisibility so I don't need to sneak anymore, I think. The Guardian Circle I don't know why I want that spell. The other reason I like these three spells is because they're pictures look cool.

Invisibility
The next Daedric artifact I'm going to get is the Skull of Corruption and I have no idea where it is!!!!!. My Friend says it is weak but I don't think It is.



Actually I'm not going to ditch all my Warrior stuff.


I am going to get the staff Icy Spear because I like spikes a little.

Circlet2.png
Mage's Circlet
I almost finished all the main quest for The College of Winterhold. I look terrible in the Mage's Circlet. I still wear it because it is so strong.

It is really hard to find a daedric relic

I really want to get the Staff of Magnus.


Absorb 25 Magicka per second. If the target is out of Magicka, absorb Health instead.

Because it drains Magicka, it renders dragons unable to use shouts.

Staffofmagnus.png
Staff of Magnus
Blood Dragons are soooooo ugly that I call them spoon tail dragons.

Because magicka does not regenerate while casting spells or using staves, the Magicka drained by this staff is not received by its wielder.

I like Turtles!!!!!

The Staff of Magnus is an ancient powerful staff tied to the Eye of Magnus in The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim.

I need to fight a Dragon priest to get this staff.
My first Dragon priest, I wonder how long it will take.

Population Genetic

Charles Darwin
Charles Darwin.
Gregor Mendel
Gregor Mendel
Sewall Wright
Sewall Wright
Gregor Mendel was the super monk that discovered the basic principal of genetics. Mendel's work was rejected, and was not accepted until after he died. During his own lifetime, most biologists held the idea that all characteristics were passed to the next generation through blending inheritance, in which the traits from each parent are averaged together. Instances of this are now explained by the action of multiple genes with  effects. Charles Darwin tried to explain inheritance through a theory of pangenesis. Darwin didn't understand mutation. Wet earwax is Dominant and dry earwax is recessive. Both Mendel and Darwin died not knowing how they're ideas fit together. Not all mutations are harmful. Darwin had no idea how Traits were past on to They're offspring. Population genetics began as a reconciliation. The American biologist Sewall Wright who had a background in animal breeding experiments focused on combinations of interacting genes, and the effects of inbreeding on small, relatively isolated populations that exhibited genetic drift. Darwin spent his entire life defending his idea of Natural Selection. Population Genetics involves lots of math. Genetics and Evolution influence each other. Population Genetics on the surface is not a complicated idea. Population is a group of individuals that can interbreed. Since we have all kinds of gadgets we know a whole lot of stuff about Heredity, unlike Darwin, because he didn't have the gadgets we have today. Their are several factors that change allele frequency within a population just like fast and furious movies, their are five of them, and unlike fast and furious movies their very very important. Natural Selection is Darwins sweet little baby which he spent a lot of time defending it from haters. Mutation can be a bad thing. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium has lots of rules, I think. Mutations modify the gene pool. The smaller the population it is likely to get genetic drift. Population genetics is the study of allele freq uency distribution and change under the influence of the four main evolutionary processes: natural selection, genetic drift, mutation and gene flow. We can now study the genetic change in populations over just a couple of generations.
Sexual Selection is the most important evolutionary force on the population level. Sexual Selection changes the Genetic makeup of a population. Genetic Drift is when a allele frequency changes due to random chance. Genetic Drift doesn't cause a individual to be more fit, just different. The Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium refers to this stability of allele frequencies over time. The Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium acquires no Natural Selection, no Sexual Selection, no Mutations and finally no Gene Flow. The math of population genetics was originally developed as the beginning of the modern evolutionary synthesis. Natural selection is the fact that some traits make it more likely for an organism to survive and reproduce. Mutation is the ultimate source of genetic variation in the form of new alleles. Gene flow is the exchange of genes between populations which are usually of the same species. Horizontal gene transfer is the transfer of genetic material from one organism to another organism that is not its offspring. Why are the weird people the really smart one. Genetic drift changes allele frequencies. The American George R. Price worked with both Hamilton and Maynard Smith. American Richard Lewontin and Japanese Motoo Kimura were heavily influenced by Wright. A sexual population is a set of organisms that can breed together. Large-scale gene transfer has occurred between the ancestors of eukaryotic cells and prokaryotes. The population genetics of genetic drift are described by using branching processes. Mutation can result in several different types of change in DNA sequence.
