So I’ve been working on the video for Lazarus, and a fellow Sylum member as been helping me getting video footage. They’ve sent me films Skyfall and Die Hard to obscure older shows Starsky & Hutch, The A-Team and Young Riders.
While Young Riders was being elusive and a pain the ass, they came across some old publicity photos from the show. It was a total flash from the past.
So here you go: Noah, Jimmy, Buck and Cody. Though we do use a different actor for Cody in Sylum … the image still works.
Fishermen’s Mission was founded as “the National Mission to Deep Sea Fishermen” by Ebenezer Joseph Mather in 1881. Mather was disturbed by the poor conditions in which fishermen worked and lived and knew something needed to be done to help alleviate their troubles. In the 19th century fishing was notoriously dangerous with high fatality rates and the occupation remains today as one of the most dangerous. In 1896 the mission was given the royal approval by Queen Victoria adding “Royal” to the missions name. The mission helped many during World War I and World War II as scores of fisherman’s trawlers were used to help merchant convoys and defence against attacks from the air and for mine sweeping.

Author’s Note: This is it the last part of Dragon Rescue. There is possibility for more in the series, but not sure what exactly …
Heath was born a fisherman. His father was a fisherman, his grandfather and so forth. He always knew he would be a fisherman. He remembered his mother crying when his father’s ship the Cosntant Vigil had gone down, all hands lost at sea. He remembered her crying when he stepped on his first boat.
He couldn’t tell her that he was called to the sea.
There was no other place for him but on the deck of a ship.
Heath started off as a greenhorn on the North Star. He had admired Liefr, her Captain, and wanted to study under him.
Liefr was an asshole. Rode his men hard. But he always kept them safe and brough the catch in.
It wasn’t until he got extremely sick, when he discovered the truth about Liefr. He had a cough before going out to the Bering Sea, by the time they were half way through their set it turned to phenomia.
Liefr didn’t give him much of a choice, and Heath took the opportunity presented.

We’ve mentioned Julius Caesar a few times … so who do you think he is?
Now remember it’s not like we’re going to put down his Turn Date as March 15th 44BC.
He is good at hiding in plain site.
This isn’t a trivia question, we just wanted to see what some of your ideas were on who Julius Caesar is *grins*
Note: He is in the wiki and you’ve met him.
2nd Note: This isn’t Julius Caesar’s soul returned … but Julius Caesar.
Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14) around the world. Pi (Greek letter “π”) is the symbol used in mathematics to represent a constant — the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter — which is approximately 3.14159. Pi Day is an annual opportunity for math enthusiasts to recite the infinite digits of Pi, talk to their friends about math, and to eat Pie.
