I am stuck on a mission called Good Intentions. The quest is so hard and I need to find a person and I have no idea how and I'm not good at doing those kind of quest. Why are Mage quest so hard. I am also terrible at useing magic. The only thing I'm good at is archery. I am going to try to get telekinesis. The only thing I know is that I need to find the Auger of Dunlain. At the Atronach forge. The Atronach forge is under The College of Winterhold. I am the listener and a thane of two places. I really want to be Arch-mage but I don't know how. The award of this quest is the Mage's Circlet it increases your Magicka by 20-70 points. The Atronach forge is a scary place. I really want to get the Eye of Magnus. I am totally not going to be a Mage, totally going to be a Warrior.

Mage or Warrior

I figured out that Mage quest are harder than Warrior quest but Mage quest are more funner and Warrior quest are boring. I got Greater Ward and it's so strong and I forgot were I got it from a ruin I guess.

I am doing a quest called the Good Intentions it is so hard.


After I finish all the main quest in The College of Winterhold I will be a Warrior again.


I really hate bandits I wish I could get one bandit and shoot them with the crossbow whats that Shadowmere  Skyrim don't have crossbows stupid Skyrim engineers always disappointing me.


I don't ride on Shadowmere anymore because I always attract Trolls.


Even though Shadowmere has a lot of health.


I don't like to have any followers because they always get in the way Shadowmere to.


I don't like dogs in Skyrim cause all of them look exactly the same!


Why do the Warrior get all the cool stuff and the Mage's get all the boring stuff.

Mage Stuff

IceWraith.jpg
Ice Wraith
When I'm done finishing all the College of Winterhold quest I'm going to be a Warrior again because Fighting as a Mage is difficult. It took so long fighting a Ice Wraith but with a Warrior it took me like four or three hits.

Masterrobesdestruct.jpg
I like being a Warrior more than a Mage. And Warrior have all the cool stuff to. I might stay a Mage.

I might get the Master Destruction robes.

If I get Master Destruction perk and the Master Robes of Destruction I will call my self the Kitty Warlock of Destruction.

I also need to find a Staff.

StaffDestruction.png
Staff of Lightning Bolts
I might get the Staff of Lightning Bolts cause I loooooove lightning bolts. Almost all the staffs I find always look the same like the Staff of Lightning Bolts.

I have fire spells and lightning spells but no frost spells I hate frost spells.

I'm going to look so cool in the Master Robes of Destruction with the Staff of Lightning Bolts.

Mage Mage Mage Mage Maaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggge Power

Under saarthal.jpg
last room
I am finally almost at the end of my quest called Under Saarthal.

The last room kind of freaked me out because of the big floating orb just like the one on the picture.

Jyrik Gauldurson.jpg
Jyrik Gauldurson
The picture of the orb is suppose to have a green shield around it. The picture is what it looks like when you defeated Jyrik Gaulderson at first he's invincible but then Tolfdir your teacher I think, he uses spark on the orb then you can damage him.

Being a Mage is awesome!. Being a Warrior is boring.

The reward for this quest is the Staff of Magelight. Ball of light that lasts 60 seconds and sticks where it strikes.


I really like staffs.


I really don't like my room in The College of Winterhold It looks so weird because I don't want a head of a deer in my room it creeps me out seriously.

I really want to try to get all of the Daedric artifacts. So cool.

Evoluntionary Development

Chimps and humans are 98.6% similar. Humans and Mice are 85% genetically identical. Evolutionary developmental biology (evolution of development or informally, evo-devo) is a field of biology that compares the developmental processes of different organisms to determine the ancestral relationship between them, and to discover how developmental processes evolved. It addresses the origin and evolution of embryonic development; how modifications of development and developmental processes lead to the production of novel features, such as the evolution of feathers; the role of developmental plasticity in evolution; how ecology impacts in development and evolutionary change; and the developmental basis of homoplasy and homology. Although interest in the relationship between ontogeny and phylogeny extends back to the nineteenth century, the contemporary field of evo-devo has gained impetus from the discovery of genes regulating embryonic development in model organisms. General hypotheses remain hard to test because organisms differ so much in shape and form. Nevertheless, it now appears that just as evolution tends to create new genes from parts of old genes (molecular economy), evo-devo demonstrates that evolution alters developmental processes to create new and novel structures from the old gene networks (such as bone structures of the jaw deviating to the ossicles of the middle ear) or will conserve (molecular economy) a similar program in a host of organisms such as eye development genes in molluscs, insects, and vertebrates. An early version of recapitulation theory, also called the biogenetic law or embryological parallelism, was put forward by Étienne Serres in 1824–26 as what became known as the "Meckel-Serres Law" which attempted to provide a link between comparative embryology and a "pattern of unification" in the organic world. It was supported by Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire as part of his ideas of idealism, and became a prominent part of his version of Lamarckism leading to disagreements with Georges Cuvier. It was widely supported in the Edinburgh and London schools of higher anatomy around 1830, notably by Robert Edmond Grant, but was opposed by Karl Ernst von Baer's embryology of divergence in which embryonic parallels only applied to early stages where the embryo took a general form, after which more specialised forms diverged from this shared unity in a branching pattern. The anatomist Richard Owen used this to support his idealist concept of species as showing the unrolling of a divine plan from an archetype, and in the 1830s attacked the transmutation of species proposed by Lamarck, Geoffroy and Grant. Animals are very similar than we imagine. In the 1850s Owen began to support an evolutionary view that the history of life was the gradual unfolding of a teleological divine plan, in a continuous "ordained becoming", with new species appearing by natural birth. In On the Origin of Species (1859), Charles Darwin proposed evolution through natural selection, a theory central to modern biology. Darwin recognised the importance of embryonic development in the understanding of evolution, and the way in which von Baer's branching pattern matched his own idea of descent with modification. Among the more surprising and, perhaps, counterintuitive (from a neo-Darwinian viewpoint) results of recent research in evolutionary developmental biology is that the diversity of body plans and morphology in organisms across many phyla are not necessarily reflected in diversity at the level of the sequences of genes, including those of the developmental genetic toolkit and other genes involved in development. Indeed, as Gerhart and Kirschner have noted, there is an apparent paradox: "where we most expect to find variation, we find conservation, a lack of change". The products of Hox genes are known as Hox proteins. Hox proteins are transcription factors, as they are capable of binding to specific nucleotide sequences on the DNA called enhancers where they either activate or repress genes. The same Hox protein can act as a repressor at one gene and an activator at another. For example, in flies the protein product of the Hox gene Antennapedia activates genes that specify the structures of the 2nd thoracic segment, which contains a leg and a wing, and represses genes involved in eye and antenna formation. Thus, legs and wings, but not eyes and antennae, will form wherever the Antennapedia protein is located. The ability of Hox proteins to bind DNA is conferred by a part of the protein referred to as the homeodomain. The homeobox is a 180 nucleotide long DNA sequence that encodes a 60 amino acid long protein domain known as the homeodomain. Hox genes are a group of related genes that determine the basic structure and orientation of an organism.

The Mongols and the Nomads

The Mongols conquered more than the Romans, I mean it a lot. The mongols opened up trade routes. Nomads migrate according to the weather. Nomads don't generally produce manufactured goods. Nomads generally live close to nature. Mongols were small. Gengis Khan conquered a lot of land. Their are 16 million people directly descendant to Gengis Khan. Salman Khan might be directly descendant to Gengis Khan. A definition includes the Mongols proper, who can be approximately divided into the eastern Mongols (the Khalkha Mongols, the Inner Mongolians, the Buryats), and the Oirats. In a wider sense, the Mongol people includes all people who speak a Mongolic language, such as the Kalmyks of eastern Europe. Gengis Khans father was poisoned to death. Mongol peasants loved Gengis Khan. 

The designation "Mongol" briefly appeared in 8th century records of the Chinese Tang dynasty, describing a tribe of Shiwei, and resurfaced again in the late 11th century during the rule of Khitan. After the fall of Liao Dynasty in 1125, the Mongols became a leading tribe on the steppe and also had power in Northern China. However, their wars with the Jin Dynasty and Tatars had weakened them. In the thirteenth century, the word Mongol grew into an umbrella term for a large group of Mongolic and Turkic tribes united under the rule of Genghis Khan.

The Mongols created nations like Russia and Korea.

The Mongols were amazing at archery.


Mongols are a Central-East Asian ethnic group that lives mainly in the countries of Mongolia, China, and Russia. Owing to wars and migrations, Mongols are also found in some Central Asian states such as Kazakhstan. In China, ethnic Mongols can be found mainly in the central north region of China such as Inner Mongolia (a smaller number of Mongols can also be found in Xinjiang in northwest China). The Buryat branch of the Mongol ethnic group can be found in the autonomous republic of Buryatia, Russia. Ethnic Mongols are bound together by a common language and culture. They speak languages belonging to the Mongolic languages. The contiguous territories inhabited by ethnic Mongols is also known as Greater Mongolia. The Nomads don't go on random Road trips. Gengis Khans most important wife was Kidnapped and his mother to. The rich hated Gengis Khan but it didn't matter anymore because they were no longer rich. Gengis Khan killed his older brother. Gengis khan Conquered lots of people. Everyday It's Gengis's khans Descendants birthday. The Mongols were uncommonly adaptable. Beyond his military accomplishments, Genghis Khan also advanced the Mongol Empire in other ways. He decreed the adoption of the Uyghur script as the Mongol Empire's writing system. He also promoted religious tolerance in the Mongol Empire, and created a unified empire from the nomadic tribes of northeast Asia. Present-day Mongolians regard him as the founding father of Mongolia. Nomads don't trade so much. Kidnapping was common for the mongols. Gengis khan died in his sleep. Gengis khans Grandsons conquered more than Gengis khan. The Mongols were experts at siege warfare by interrogating prisoners. People were terrified of the Mongols often cities would surrender just to escape slaughter. The Mongols really did reinvigorate cross-Eurasian trade. The Mongols increased communication through Eurasia. The Yam system was also called the Ortoo, but was not called Ortoo D2. Another thing that traveled along the Mongol trade routes was cuisine. Gengis Khan failed to create a single political unit out of his conquests. The Mongols split into four just like Alexander's empire. The Mongols valued trade. The Mongols had bronze passport. This is Gengis khans definition of happiness "The greatest happiness is to vanquish your enemies. A definition includes the Mongols proper, who can be approximately divided into the eastern Mongols (the Khalkha Mongols, the Inner Mongolians, the Buryats), and the Oirats. In a wider sense, the Mongol people includes all people who speak a Mongolic language, such as the Kalmyks of eastern Europe.

The designation "Mongol" briefly appeared in 8th century records of the Chinese Tang dynasty, describing a tribe of Shiwei, and resurfaced again in the late 11th century during the rule of Khitan. After the fall of Liao Dynasty in 1125, the Mongols became a leading tribe on the steppe and also had power in Northern China. However, their wars with the Jin Dynasty and Tatars had weakened them. In the thirteenth century, the word Mongol grew into an umbrella term for a large group of Mongolic and Turkic tribes united under the rule of Genghis Khan. In various times Mongols have been equated with the Scythians, the Magog and the Turkic peoples. Based on Chinese historical texts the ancestry of the Mongol peoples can be traced back to the Donghu, a nomadic confederation occupying eastern Mongolia and Manchuria. The identity of the Xiongnu is still debated today. Although some scholars maintain that they were proto-Mongols, the fact that Chinese histories trace certain Turkic tribes from the Xiongnu complicates the issue.

wow!

A Cornered Rat (quest). Esbern behind the door
I deleted my new saved game because it was a complete failure because some how I joined the Thieves Guild and I didn't want to and also I found an annoying bug were I need to talk to a guy called Esbern and he won't say a thing and won't come out! its so annoying.



I also found a secret entrance to the Thieves Guilds place.

 I am a student in The College of Winterhold.



I am using lots of fire spells and I'm really good at fighting with them.





Before on my other blog I said I didn't want to join the college of Winterhold but now I change my mind.


DA10MaceofMolagBal.png
Mace of Malang Bal
I got a new Daedric Artifact called the Mace of Molang Bal on the picture its only grey but it is also glowing green, you get the mace as a gift from a dead Daedric prince during The House of Horrors, you go inside this abandoned house with a guy called Vigilant Tyranus when you enter a house with him and he heard something and you find a locked door he asks you to open it and suddenly he says "oh no, this is no ordinary house" and then the voice of Molang Bal tells you to kill him.

Shrouded Armor Female.png
Shrouded armor
I am not going to use the Daedric armor any more because I remembered that I am terrible with the Daedric shield and mace. so I'm looking for a suitable light armor.



The armor I might get is the Shrouded armor, you get the armor by joining the Dark Brotherhood when I get the armor I will get kicked out of the Dark Brotherhood. To get kicked out of the Dark Brotherhood is to attack one of the members of the Dark Brotherhood, but don't kill them.



My weapons are going to be duel Daedric daggers and Daedric bow and arrow.


Daedricdagger.png
Daedric dagger



I choose the armor because it looks cool I guess.





I am trying to look like a Rogue.





Daedricarrow.png

  I really like having two daggers and a bow.









I started to like this combination when I fought my first thief.










 I will mostly use the bow. Because I kill lots of people with it.

My New Saved Game

Nord
On my new saved game I am a Nord and my name is Scar weird name I know but that was the only name I could think of. I choose to be a Nord because Their special power is Battle Cry It makes target flee for 30 seconds and Your Nord blood gives you 50% resistance to frost.







Ebony1.jpg
Ebony armor
I don't know what armor to use the Daedric armor, Ebony armor or Dragon armor. There's a tiny chance that it will be Daedric armor. The weapon might be a Daedric mace.




I am not going to get a horse because I found out with Shadowmere that horses are really annoying dogs to.  







The armor I'm going to use is the Daedric armor. The weapon will be a Daedric sword.






I am going to join the companions and try to become a werewolf.


Dragon armor left and right




First I'm going to go to The Tower Stone. It makes you unlock any expert lock-picks and lower level lock-picks.




I am going to get the skeleton key first.

Tuesday, May 22, 2012

I might change my armor back to heavy armor because I get damaged a lot and I really want to use the shield. I am going to use the Dragon armor Heavy version. The weapon I'm still thinking about. It might be a two-handed weapon or a sword. I prefer the sword  because my friend wanted me to use a cutting off head weapon. The sword is going to be the Chillrend because it is very strong and my friend said it's the strongest in the game. Not sure if I'm going to get the Dragon armor. Maybe the Daedric armor and the Daedric sword I'm not going to use the Daedric bow. I like Daedric stuff their cool.


I don't really fight dragons any more. I see them but they ignore me.



I'm still going to be a Stormcloak. Because they have all the fun stuff.



 
I'm still not a Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwooooooooollllf !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Skyrim weapon Nettlebane.jpgI am going to get the Dagger Nettlebane because it's strong. 

I didn't get kicked out of the Dark Brotherhood but I'm not going to do any more missions for them, I'm to busy doing stuff for the Stormcloaks.


Imperials are similar to the Romans.

I might stop doing my saved game because I don't really like Khajiits anymore and my friend got freaked out when he saw my eyes, my evil, evil, eyes.


I'm getting really annoyed with my tail.
I don't like tails.



The next guy might be a Nord or an Imperial might be and Imperial.







Wolves are very rare in my saved game, instead of Wolves the enemies I fight on the way are Trolls.


I am trying to act like a rogue.




My friend likes light armor and heavy armor. He likes the shrouded armor only. It is very good at sneaking.


I decided I'm going to be a Imperial.

Awesome II

Werewolf.png
Werewolf
I am going to try to finish all of The Dark Brotherhood quests because I am sick of going to jail, people saying "wait I now you". I am so sick of it very very very veeeeeeeeeery sick of it!!!!!!!!!. There are lots of Dark Brotherhood quests. I think I'm going to get kicked out of The Dark Brotherhood.



I worship Talos because I'm a Stormcloak. The Stormcloaks worship Talos the Imperials do not. Talos can cure diseases if you worship him.




I am going to try to join The Companions and learn the new shout my friend has. He doesn't have all of the words yet. He only needs one more word. He can also turn into a werewolf, and soon I will. I like Were-wolfs they sound cool and look cool. I'm going to get the Hircine's Ring it can turn you into a Were-wolf but you can only turn into a Were-wolf once then takeoff the ring and put the ring back on.





Animal Development

Starfish
Sea Sponges don't really have any organs. If you blenderise a Sea Sponge and wait till the next day you will find the live cells found each other and start to form into a new Sea Sponge. Lot's of animals are much more complex then sea sponges Developmental biology is the study of the process by which organisms grow and develop. Modern developmental biology studies the genetic control of cell growth, differentiation and "morphogenesis", which is the process that gives rise to tissues, organs and anatomy. The development of a new life is a spectacular process and represents a masterpiece of temporal and spatial control of gene expression. Developmental genetics studies the effect that genes have in a phenotype, given normal or abnormal epigenetic parameters. The findings of developmental biology can help to understand developmental abnormalities such as chromosomal aberrations that cause Down syndrome. An understanding of the specialization of cells during embryogenesis has provided information on how stem cells specialize into specific tissues and organs. Animal complexity has everything to do with what happens with the first couple of hours it spends during its development. Growth is the enlargement of a tissue or organism. Growth continues after the embryonal stage, and occurs through cell proliferation, enlargement of cells or accumulation of extracellular material. In plants, growth results in an adult organism that is strikingly different from the embryo. The proliferating cells tend to be distinct from differentiated cells (see stem cell and progenitor cell). In some tissues proliferating cells are restricted to specialised areas, such as the growth plates of bones. But some stem cells migrate to where they are needed, such as mesenchymal stem cells which can migrate from the bone marrow to form e.g. muscle, bone or adipose tissue. The size of an organ frequently determines its growth, as in the case of the liver which grows back to its previous size if a part is removed. Growth factors, such as fibroblast growth factors in the animal embryo and growth hormone in juvenile mammals, also control the extent of growth. A Sea Sponge doesn't have a mouth or an anus, ha ha ha laugh all you want. The more complex the animal is, the more it resembles a tube. Most animals have a larval stage, with a body plan different from that of the adult organism. The larva abrubtly develops into an adult in a process called metamorphosis. For example, caterpillars (butterfly larvae) are specialized for feeding whereas adult butterflies (imagos) are specialised for flight and reproduction. When the caterpillar has grown enough, it turns into an immobile pupa. Here, the imago develops from imaginal discs found inside the larva. Another biologically important process that occurs during development is apoptosis—programmed cell death or "suicide." Many developmental models are used to elucidate the physiology and molecular basis of this cellular process. Similarly, a deeper understanding of developmental biology can foster greater progress in the treatment of congenital disorders and diseases, e.g. studying human sex determination can lead to treatment for disorders such as congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Sperm cells and egg cells are gametes. Morula is Latin for raspberry. Are ancestors were just a butt-hole attached to a couple of cells, like a Starfish. Aren't you glad that we are not Deuterostomes. In both deuterostomes and protostomes, a zygote first develops into a hollow ball of cells, called a blastula. In deuterostomes, the early divisions occur parallel or perpendicular to the polar axis. This is called radial cleavage, and also occurs in certain protostomes, such as the lophophorates. Most deuterostomes display indeterminate cleavage, in which the developmental fate of the cells in the developing embryo are not determined by the identity of the parent cell. Thus if the first four cells are separated, each cell is capable of forming a complete small larva, and if a cell is removed from the blastula the other cells will compensate. In biology, a phylum is a taxonomic rank below kingdom and above class. "Phylum" is equivalent to the botanical term division. The kingdom Animalia contains approximately 35 phyla; the kingdom Plantae contains 12 divisions. Current research in phylogenetics is uncovering the relationships between phyla, which are contained in larger clades, like Ecdysozoa and Embryophyta. The Sea Sponge is the most non complicated thing ever. Because it's only a tube with a hole on the top. Informally, phyla can be thought of as grouping organisms based on general specialization of body plan, at the most basic level, a phylum can be defined in two ways: as a group of organisms with a certain degree of morphological or developmental similarity (the phenetic definition), or a group of organisms with a certain degree of evolutionary relatedness (the phylogenetic definition).






Mansa Musa

Mansa Musa
Much of African history was preserved by a oral rather than written tradition. Writing is one of the markers of civilization. People who don't use writing aren't civilized. In 1324iiish Mansa Musa made the Haji. At the time of Mansa Musa's rise to the throne, the Malian Empire consisted of territory formerly belonging to the Ghana Empire and Melle (Mali) and immediate surrounding areas, and Musa held many titles, including Emir of Melle, Lord of the Mines of Wangara, and conqueror of Ghanata, Futa-Jallon, and at least another dozen states. He was the wealthiest ruler of his day and one of the wealthiest people of all time. Musa was referred to and is most commonly found as Mansa Musa in Western manuscripts and literature. His name also appears as Kankou Musa, Kankan Musa or Kanku Musa which means "Musa, son of Kankou", where Kankou is the name of his mother. Other alternatives go on as Mali-koy Kankan Musa, Gonga Musa and the Lion of Mali. Mansa Musa was filthy rich. We don't have many written records about Africa because they were uncivilized. Mansa Musa knew all about the places he was going to before he even got there. They traded salt and gold might sound like a bad idea but without salt you die. The first converts were traders. Musa was a devout Muslim and his pilgrimage to Mecca, a command ordained by Allah according to core teachings of Islam, made him well-known across northern Africa and the Middle East. To Musa, Islam was the foundation of the "cultured world of the Eastern Mediterranean". He would spend much time fostering the growth of Islam in his empire. Musa made his pilgrimage in 1324, his procession reported to include 60,000 men, 12,000 slaves who all carried 4-lb. gold bars, heralds dressed in silks who bore gold staffs, organized horses and handled bags. Musa provided all necessities for the procession, feeding the entire company of men and animals. Mansa Musa gave away lots of his riches. Mansa Musa was Muslim and relatively devout. Muslim kings were trying to extend their power to many non Muslim populations. Ghana empire was probably the first empire in west Africa. All that is known about Ibn Battuta's life comes from the autobiographical information included in the account of his travels. Ibn Battuta was born into a Berber family of Islamic legal scholars in Tangier, Morocco, on 25 February 1304, during the reign of the Marinid dynasty. As a young man he would have studied at a Sunni Maliki madh'hab, (Islamic jurisprudence school), the dominant form of education in North Africa at that time. For safety, Ibn Battuta usually joined a caravan to reduce the risk of an attack by wandering Arab Bedouin. He took a bride in the town of Sfax, the first in a series of marriages that would feature in his travels. Mansa Musa spent so much money that he caused run away inflation. On 17 November 1326, following a month spent in Mecca, Ibn Battuta joined a large caravan of pilgrims returning to Iraq across the Arabian Peninsula. The group headed north to Medina and then, travelling at night, turned northeast across the Najd plateau to Najaf, on a journey that lasted about two weeks. In Najaf he visited the mausoleum of Ali ibn Abi Talib (Ali), the 4th caliph and the son-in-law of the prophet Muhammad. Then, instead of continuing on to Baghdad with the caravan, Ibn Battuta started a six-month detour that took him into Persia. From Najaf he journeyed to Wasit then followed the river Tigris south to Basra. His next destination was the town of Esfahān across the Zagros Mountains in Persia. He then headed south to Shiraz, a large, flourishing city spared the destruction wrought by Mongol invaders on many more northerly towns. Finally, he returned across the mountains to Baghdad, arriving there in June 1327. We know so much about Mali is because it was visited by Ibn Battuta. Ibn Battuta was probably the most well traveled person until the invention of the steam engine. Every where Ibn Battuta went he was treated like a king. Ibn Battuta recorded his visit to the Kilwa Sultanate in 1330, and commented favorably on the humility and religion of its ruler, Sultan al-Hasan ibn Sulaiman, a descendant of the legendary Ali ibn al-Hassan Shirazi. He further wrote that the authority of the Sultan extended from Malindi in the north to Inhambane in the south and was particularly impressed by the planning of the city, believing it to be the reason for Kilwa's success along the coast. From this period date the construction of the Palace of Husuni Kubwa and a significant extension to the Great Mosque of Kilwa, which was made of Coral Stones and the largest Mosque of its kind. With a change in the monsoon winds, Ibn Battuta sailed back to Arabia, first to Oman and the Strait of Hormuz then on to Mecca for the hajj of 1330 (or 1332).

War War War War Waaaaaaaaaar!!!!!!!

Ebony1.jpg
Ebony armor
I really like using a Nightingale bow because I killed lots of guys with it, I found that out by killing a Giant and a pack of bandits in their camp I found in the middle of nowhere. I hate the Imperials ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!! hail Sithis hail me and hail the Stormcloaks. I might get the Dwarven armor or the Ebony armor and Ebony warhammer, Ebony war axe and Ebony bow, defiantly the bow. I love bows. The Ebony warhammer is the strongest weapon of the Ebony weapons. Imperials are going down they should I got sick of them saying wait I now you all the time and I actually get to fight lots of people. Instead of bandits, wolves and mages.
I hate thieves for being so weak, all the thieves I meet are always Argonian.

Spells Spells Spells!!!! and Dogs

Yesterday
I found a Daedric arrow and Dwarven arrows in a farmer and I thought it was an error but it wasn't, so I grabbed the Daedric arrow and left the Dwarven arrows. I got lots of fire spells my favorite fire spell is the Firebolt and Fireball.



Today
I am going to get all of the Lightning spells today.



 My favorite type of assassin group is the Dark Brotherhood cause I'm part of the Dark Brotherhood.There are three types of assassin groups: the Dark Brotherhood, the Nightingales and the Thieves guild. The Nightingales are just part of the Thieves guild. I'm in the Dark Brotherhood and I'm wearing the Nightigale armor.

I am never going to join the College of Winterhold maybe. I really like Destruction magic except frost magic I really don't like frost magic. It is rare for me to find a dragon. I really don't like Vigilance because he killed Meeko and Vigilance is a coward Meeko is not because when Vigilance ran away when he got burnt but Meeko didn't runaway.

Fire Fire Fire!!!!!!!

TESV Shout Fire.png
Fire Breath
 Today
 I'm going to get a new shout it is called Fire Breath when you inhale air you exhale flames just like the picture. I'm going to get lots of fire spells and call my self fire mage ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha actually I'm going to be a pyromancer and find cool robes like the Master Robes of Destruction man I'm so exited. Goodbye Warrior hello Mage, well I'm only going to keep the Dawnbreaker because I like it.


Yesterday
http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111222220161/elderscrolls/images/a/a4/Flame_cloak_ugh.png
Flame Cloak
I got a new Spell Tome called Flame Cloak when you use it flame surrounds your body and the enemies who touch it catches on fire.



I really like Fire stuff like the Dawnbreaker when you hit people they catch on fire. My friend really likes frost and electric stuff like frost weapons frost magic electric weapons and electric magic, my friend is going to join the College of Winterhold.

TESV Shadowmere.png
Shadowmere (horse)
Today I might join the Stormcloaks.


how come the Imperials have so many strong stuff and they have lots of places like Riften, Whiterun, Sollitude. I also accidentally shot a kid on the forehead and I ran away on Shadowmere then I got attack by a dragon and I thought it killed Shadowmere then all of the soldiers and the villagers helped me fight the dragon even though I actually killed it when they came. I killed it with the Nightingale blade. The final shot is when I shot it with the Nightingale bow with Daedric arrow. When I got Vigilance I tried to get Meeko but then Vigilance was gone then I saw Vigilance beside Meeko's dead body and I killed all the enemies there so Vigilance killed Meeko, so I'm going to get Barbas. First I'm going to go south of Riften and get a artifact muha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I don't know why I'm laughing.

Speciation of Liger and Men

Homo sapiens are the single remaining member of the genius Homo, our buddies Homo Erectus, Homo Habilis and Homo Neanderthelensis bought the farm a long time ago, We are closely related to Chimp and Bonobo. The definition of species is a group of a organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Napoleon dynamite really liked ligers. A liger is when a male lion and a female tiger make a cub. ligers are bigger then they're parents. A Mule is when a male donkey and a female horse mate. The Mule is similar to a Liger except the Mule is not bigger then it's parents. Pre-zygotic is when animals are no longer attractive to each other. When two people from different countries if one of them is taller then the other then the baby is going to be taller then it's parents like me I'm taller then my mom and almost taller then my dad. We are human because we are bipedal an we have these huge brains so we make stuff we can talk real good and do all kinds of stuff. Ligers are noble. Lions and Tigers make a cub if they really need to. If you are looking for a wife or a husband it's not a good idea to marry a person from the same country, village, you know what I mean. If you wanna marry some person that comes from the same village, whatever, make your baby weak and have lots of problems then go ahead. The same species will grow differently if the weather is different. A Corgi was bred to guard farm houses and herd animals and a Grayhound was bred to mostly run. Similar animals can make babies. Speciation is the evolutionary process by which new biological species arise. All forms of natural speciation have taken place over the course of evolution; however it still remains a subject of debate as to the relative importance of each mechanism in driving biodiversity. The mechanisms of reproductive isolation or hybridization barriers are a collection of mechanisms, behaviors and physiological processes that prevent the members of two different species that cross or mate from producing offspring, or which ensure that any offspring that may be produced is not fertile. These barriers maintain the integrity of a species over time, reducing or directly impeding gene flow between individuals of different species, allowing the conservation of each species’ characteristics. The mechanisms of reproductive isolation have been classified in a number of ways. Zoologist Ernst Mayr classified the mechanisms of reproductive isolation in two broad categories: those that act before fertilization (or before mating in the case of animals, which are called pre-copulatory) and those that act after. There are four geographic modes of speciation in nature, based on the extent to which speciating populations are geographically isolated from one another: allopatric, peripatric, parapatric, and sympatric. Speciation may also be induced artificially, through animal husbandry, agriculture, or laboratory experiments. Observed examples of each kind of speciation are provided throughout. One example of natural speciation is the diversity of the three-spined stickleback, a marine fish that, after the last ice age, has undergone speciation into new freshwater colonies in isolated lakes and streams. Over an estimated 10,000 generations, the sticklebacks show structural differences that are greater than those seen between different genera of fish including variations in fins, changes in the number or size of their bony plates, variable jaw structure, and color differences. Sympatric speciation refers to the formation of two or more descendant species from a single ancestral species all occupying the same geographic location. In parapatric speciation, there is only partial separation of the zones of two diverging populations afforded by geography; individuals of each species may come in contact or cross habitats from time to time, but reduced fitness of the heterozygote leads to selection for behaviours or mechanisms that prevent their inter-breeding. Ligers cannot make cubs, Mules also can't make colts. The mechanisms of reproductive isolation have been classified in a number of ways. Zoologist Ernst Mayr classified the mechanisms of reproductive isolation in two broad categories: those that act before fertilization (or before mating in the case of animals, which are called pre-copulatory) and those that act after. He genetics of ethological isolation barriers will be discussed first. Pre-copulatory isolation occurs when the genes necessary for the sexual reproduction of one species differ from the equivalent genes of another species, such that if a male of species A and a female of species B are placed together they are unable to copulate.

The Crusades

Sir Walter Scott
The Crusades were driven by religious fervor. Pope Urban the II wanted to unite Europe. The best way to get people to unite is to give them a common enemy. The Crusades were not primarily military operations they were pilgrimages. The Crusades were not an example of early European colonizations of the middle east even though they did create Europeanish kingdoms. The Peasant Crusades were not knights they were poor people. Religion shaped the world. The Crusaders were miraculously successful. The Crusades were a series of religious expeditionary wars blessed by the Pope and the Catholic Church, with the stated goal of restoring Christian access to the holy places in and near Jerusalem. Several hundred thousand soldiers became Crusaders by taking vows; the Pope granted them plenary indulgence. In modern usage the term "crusade", or "crusade against...", is often used metaphorically to refer to any idealistically- or ideologically-motivated campaign without religious connotations, as in "Crusade Against Cancer". We endlessly romanticized the story of the Crusades. Theologically Christianity didn't have a idea of a holy war, like war might be just but fighting wasn't something that got you to heaven. The Crusades were enemies with the Muslims, the enemies general was a Kurdish person named Saladin. He was a amazing general. The second Crusades were failure's. Lots of people volunteered For the fourth Crusade, I don't know maybe 35000 maybe. The crusaders comprised military units of Roman Catholics from all over western Europe, and were not under unified command. Religious Context The Holy Land is significant in Christianity because of the land's association as the place of nativity, ministry, crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, whom Christians regard as the Saviour or Messiah. The origins of the Crusades were the Christian response to the Islamic invasion of Gaul (France) earlier in the Middle Ages, as well as the deterioration of the Byzantine Empire caused by a new wave of Turkish Muslim attacks. The first Crusades were brought together in 1095 C.E. Whats a better way to show your devotion to god than to put a cross on your armor. By 1100 C.E European nobles held both Jerusalem and Antioch as Latin Christan kingdoms. The third Crusades was the famous. The Crusades were a complete failure. The Crusades Liberated Jerusalem. Pilgrimages kept on stealing stuff on the way. he Reconquista, a long period of wars in Spain and Portugal (Iberia) where Christian forces reconquered the peninsula from Muslims, is closely tied to the Crusades.The term "crusade" is also used to describe religiously motivated campaigns conducted between 1100 and 1600 in territories outside the Levant usually against pagans, heretics, and peoples under the ban of excommunication for a mixture of religious, economic, and political reasons. The Political Situation Palestine had been conquered by the Roman Empire in 63 BCE. Richard The Lionheart was in the crusades. Muslims sacked the christian cities. The Crusaders failed to capture Zara. One of the leaders of the Christians drowned in a river while he was bathing. The fourth crusade was the most crazy one, and the most people volunteered to fight in it. Their were no real leaders. The Crusaders were defeated by the Persians. The Crusaders actually never took back any of the holy land. Saladin died in 1192. The Crusaders made a deal with the venicians, if they caught the rebellious city of Zara, which was christian, they would give them transport. The Christians took Jerusalem, which was a great win for them. Religion did not cause all the wars in history, of course. The Christians called the western Europeans for help against the Muslims. Muslims sacked the christian cities. Sir Walter Scott Idealized the Crusades. The Byzantines called the west for help. Jerusalem in particular holds a significance in Islam as it holds it to be the site of the ascension into heaven of the prophet Muhammad whom Muslims believe to be the foremost prophet of Allah and Jerusalem is often regarded as the third most sacred site in Islam. The fourth Crusade was the last one. The Crusades were stuck in Constantinople. The Crusades were, in part, an outlet for an intense religious piety which rose up in the late 11th century among the lay public. A crusader would, after pronouncing a solemn vow, receive a cross from the hands of the pope or his legates, and was thenceforth considered a "soldier of the Church". This was partly because of the Investiture Controversy, which had started around 1075 and was still on-going during the First Crusade. The fourth Crusades doomed the Byzantine empire.

Aaaaaaaarmor and weeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaapons

 Yesterday
 I don't really like the Dwarven armor anymore. I like the Nightingale armor because when I do missions for the Dark Brotherhood I really look like an assassin. You can't see your face and my name is assassin.

Today

I'm going to get the Nightingale Blade because it matches my armor and weapon. My weapon is the Nightingale blade. I unlocked a case with a weapon inside but when I opened it, it was only an iron war axe!!!!. I really like assassinating the emperor.





Nobody can spot me. If they do, they die sometimes, except the guards. The guards live sometimes if they're alone, heh heh. I got lots of money, so much that I can buy 4 houses in Whiterun. I got my money by pickpocketing, stealing, doing missions and getting money from the people I kill. The set I'm going to use is the Nightingale blade.

Ironbind Barrow.jpg
location of Ironbind Borrow

My friend thought that the easiest way to get the Dwarven chest peace is to craft it but he's wrong. That's not the easiest way to get the Dwarven chest peace. You can get it in chests in a tomb southeast of Winterhold. The tomb is called Ironbind Borrow.

The strongest shield I have is the Falmer shield and the strongest mace I have is the Dwarven mace.


 When I went out of Whiterun I got followed by one dragon,pack of wolfs and a mudcarb, all the way to Falreath.

Falmer armor.jpg
Falmer armor A.K.A the ugliest armor I have ever seen
The ugliest armor I have ever seen is the Falmer armor, the ugliest weapon I have ever seen is the steel dagger, the ugliest enemy I have ever seen is the Falmer.




The weapon I'm trying to get is the Dwarven warhammer or the Dwarven battleaxe. I might choose the Dwarven battleaxe.



I found out that I really really really really hate Frost Trolls.
