World Blood Donor Day

Every year, on 14 June, countries around the world celebrate World Blood Donor Day. The event serves to thank voluntary, unpaid blood donors for their life-saving gifts of blood and to raise awareness of the need for regular blood donations to ensure the quality, safety and availability of blood and blood products for patients in need.

Transfusion of blood and blood products helps save millions of lives every year. It can help patients suffering from life-threatening conditions live longer and with a higher quality of life, and supports complex medical and surgical procedures. It also has an essential, life-saving role in maternal and child care and during the emergency response to man-made and natural disasters.

A blood service that gives patients access to safe blood and blood products in sufficient quantity is a key component of an effective health system. An adequate supply can only be ensured through regular donations by voluntary, unpaid blood donors. However, in many countries, blood services face the challenge of making sufficient blood available, while also ensuring its quality and safety.

Support Sylum: Donations

There is a lot of work that goes into keep Sylum up and running.  There are hours of behind the scenes work:  scheduling and building posts for the blog, updating the website after each Event, maintenance for the blog and wiki, building a new archive, and prepping for Sylum Events (Spring Fling, 7 Days, Advent, and Special Appreciation Days).

Sylum Events coming Soon:

7 Days of Summer – July 1st

Fassbender Fortnight – September 1st

Opening of the New Sylum Archive – October 15th

Sylum Advent – December 1st

And as we prep for these events, we’re still working on everything else!!

This is pretty much a full time job outside the RL one.

I do this because I love Sylum, and what it’s become over the past decade.  As do those who support me, and I appreciation them immensely for the help they have given me.  There are times I can’t thank them enough.

I don’t mind spending my time on Sylum, but at the end of the day – I still need help.

It costs $150 a year to host the website which includes: the blog, website, wiki and archive.

There’s a secondary cost of $50 a year for Spam Protection, Security and Malware Protection (that I pay out of pocket).

We have set up many ways you can help support Sylum.

You can donate directly to our Hosting Company – this money goes to paying the yearly hosting costs, plus renewal of our domain name.

Sylum Vault: Etsy Shop – helps support my personal costs in keeping Sylum up and running.

For those who have shown their support throughout the years – Thank You!  We couldn’t have kept this going without you!

Character Introduction / Lealta Kin Clan0

Sylum Inspiration: Lionel Fusco

Lealta: Hunter

Lionel grew up in New York.  He knew how it worked since he was five.  His parents were nothing to write home about, and neither was his ex-wife.

The only thing he was truly proud of is his son, Lee who has been raising on his own since his ex took off.

He became a cop, because it was the good thing to do.  He was stationed at 51st precinct and ended up working with James Stills and Louis Azarello.  Soon they pulled him further into corruption, until he was completely snared and working for HR.

He found his redemption when he got the the first and only drop on John Reese.  Stills ordered Fusco to kill and dump John’s body in Oyster Bay.  During the ride out, John facilitate an escape and let Lionel live, realizing he still was a good cop.

He made Lionel into an Asset, pulling him in to help with the numbers.

John had Lionel moved to the 8th Precinct to work with Carter.

John had Lionel go deeper into HR, to help bring down the organization.  It was then he realized he was finally doing something good.  He liked working with two men, and the dog was cute.

In time Lionel discovered that Carter was also working for them, when the two were trying to help him stop an HR hit.   Only to watch John hunt down the bitch that had stolen Harold.

If that wasn’t enough to prove there was something more going on … after seeing John jump across a four lane highway to get to another building to save Finch, he was sold on the Vampire thing.

He was there for Carter when she discovered about Zoe and later Turned.

She in turn was there for him, when he discovered about Donna.

Sylum Information: Person of Interest

We’ve talked about Person of Interest a few times, and a chunk of John & Harold’s history and beginning storyline was shown in Watchdog.

So what about the rest of the cast.

Lionel’s story will develop along with Carter’s as the stories are written and built.

Shaw was a debate for a while, as we weren’t sure what to do with her, but we got something forming, and we’ll see how it goes.

So I know some of you are asking – what about Root.

No.

Fuck No.

Hell fucking no.

Only way Root is even showing up in the story – is to be killed.  I despised the character let alone the ‘suddenly I’m a good guy but not really’ oh and let’s just make it all about Root and forget that Harold was the one who built the damn Machine in the first place.

Which leads to another question.

No the Machine is not a girl.

It will not have a voice – if it needs one it will use synthetic ones or JARVIS.

The Machine is The Machine.

More of these stories will develop as we go, and we’ll see more coming soon.
