Coffee House Friday

For those who participate in Lent.
What have you given up?
Or did you decided to do something else?
Like start to build a good habit?
Throwback Thursday: Demons & Angels by Timothy Quinn

Since it’s the beginning of Lent I thought this was fitting story for Throwback Thursday

Reminder: New Sylum Security Group

Sylum Security Reminder
As a reminder we’re moving the Security List to a new list. If you missed the State of the Clan, we’re doing this because Yahoo is an asshole.
In the original security group we had it arranged that an email would go out once a month as a reminder of the password. Considering they deleted all the files, we figured this would change. Shockingly, Yahoo fucked that up. On the 1st of January & February, Yahoo sent out that email. Problem: I can’t change, delete, or do anything with it! There is no file to change, no section in the control panel to change what goes out, and they is no support from yahoo. Great job there Yahoo. Which leads to a major problem, when we change the password, once a month an email would go out with the wrong information.
Because of this we came with a new system, that is based on the old. Sadly, Yahoo is one of the only systems that has a ‘mailing service’ that is basic and free. Mailing Lists, are clumsy and can be expensive. While other groups have restrictions on adult content. And we’re not going password free, due to the nature of our content.
So we’ve built a new Security Group, through Yahoo. It works just like the old one, you sign up and you get the password. If you are on the old group you WILL have to join this one to get the new password. And yes it is a NEW password.
The old group and password will be deleted March 1st. So you have 1 week to transfer over.
All links on the blog, plus the one on the new Front Page of the website have been updated to reflect this change.
Sylum Inspiration: James Phelps

James Phelps
(Dilios: This one is the asshole)
James Phelps met Galileo while he was in Italy exploring the lands and learning more history. Galileo liked his attitude and offered him a position in his society that puts education and learning above all others.
When the time came, he gave him a second choice of a new life.

Sylum Inspiration: Mr. Phelps

Vampire Council Member: Jim Phelps aka Mr. Secretary
(Dilios Note: Not to be confused with the asshole)
Jim Phelps comes from a long line of Phelps, and is named after his grandfather. Born in England, he worked for the Special Operations Executive known as the SOE … nicknamed Department of Dirty Tricks.
Not happy with his role in the beginning workings of MI:5, he ended up in the United States working within the CIA, then building IMF (Impossible Mission Force). He ended up recruiting Ethan Hunt, not long after.
His skills were so valuable, that Lamont gave him a retirement option.
Random Act of Kindness

Technically Random Act of Kindness day is tomorrow the 17th. My feeling is doesn’t need to be on a certain date, every day should be a Random Act of Kindness Day.
