Can You Recover From Marijuana Use

Tayga Risorta

-7 days

There is clear why the Prince Shaman, suddenly, it seems very, very pissed off!

... . Ridgell takes Apelios aside and explains that it is as if he had asked Berlusconi to accept the nomination of a Prime Minister Fini ... ...

Shaman When the Prince is gone, slamming the door of the temple, the 'echo of the crash is steeped in the deep and embarrassed silence that follows. Only the whispering voice of the magician's ear Apelios, and the silent but pestilential Alkatel of farts and Balakov, reports no all action . What to do now?

"Taiga must be resurrected, under chiericone, get to do!" Alkatel thunder explodes with his deep voice from below.

"I can do it now, I have spent my strength to treat the other two, it would be too much the amount of magical energy demand, I've done all the overtime possible, the unions will not let me, I will have no further increases for at least four years, I do not do . Sorry but you really have to go to hell and we have to wait until tomorrow. "

With the intention to occupy the time that separates us from so much waiting the resurrection of our High Priestess, start a lively discussion, and who will elect as supreme ruler? Prince Shaman King or the Anti-evoked?

Balakov: "I tell the crown prince of the Shaman."

Ridgell: "It 's an asshole, pompous and inflated balloon. A skin, and even balls, I say do not elect him!"

Apelios: "At first I was of the opinion to appoint the Prince, but his response left me somewhat perplexed. ... ... ...."

Ailin: "But what I wonder ... .. after your skillful diplomatic surprise me by the hand ... .."

Alkatel: "... ... ... and the son of the king of this kingdom, what happened ...., I do not remember More .... ... .. "

Balakov:" My vote is for the prince shaman ... ... ... ... ...! "

Apelios:" Really ... ..? "

Ridgell: "It 's false, not to be trusted. I do not trust! It is better to King Asshole Anti-alias King Summoned "

Apelios:" You say ... ... ... ... ...? "

Ailin," How do you say this. Do you realize that if we elect the Anti-King Summoned risk that war broke out between elves and the king of the undead on the island where there is a portal. "

Apelios:" ... ... ... ... .. you say? "

Ailin:" We are here to avoid this war, please! "

Apelios:" .... .. ... Ah! "

Yes ... .... ... No .... ... Yes ... No ... .. .... . .. Yes ... No ... ... ... ..!

... .. all this repeated no less than fifteen times ....

The pleasant discussion is interrupted by an unpleasant view. Now the temple is so neutered by the presence of clerics heretics, but it is completely defenseless. Anyone with a desire to stir and able to enter whenever he wants. We realize that probably Ass has an interest in us out, and within a couple of hours if he is able to reach and revolt like a sock. What to do?

"Let's go!" someone says, looking worried and restless in the back.

"But we still go back tomorrow to recover Tayga. The problem will come back tomorrow to ask!"

"Someone said:" Tomorrow is another day! " cites the scholar Balakov, between a belch and the other .-

quickly we go and fly a griffin, we reach the castle of the king who welcomed us very happy to see us live and is extremely curious to learn about the temple and the temple of the Red Castle. We satisfy his thirst for knowledge warrant that you have completely solved the problem of the curse of the temple ... .. ... ... .. maybe!

We ask hospitality for the night, explaining the dangers that we would progress at the temple.

At dusk we receive encouraging news from the king of the neighboring kingdom. "The troops will be deployed at the place and time agreed upon."

During the evening we see a strange behavior in Ridgell. Throughout the evening, the magician tries to convince the king to accept the title of High King. There are many lures that addresses the sovereign to remember a sly cat who purrs in front of the lair of the rat.

Luckily the old sire with good grace rejects the proposal, dismissing the insistent magician with great diplomacy.

- 6 days

rises the dawn. It comes to us the time to return to the Red Temple to resurrect Tayga. A gryphon flight back over the distance that separates us from the goal. Carefully fly over the temple.

Everything is silent. For inexperienced eye seems at peace with the sacred building, but also be fast magic (Alkatel) understand that inside is a powerful, persistent magical aura. What to do?

As usual among peers bursts an array of suggestions among many:

"Torniamocene home!" (What kind of house, you idiot!)

"I was thinking of launching a ghostly setting ... ... .... So let's see if there is an area of \u200b\u200banti-magic inside ... .. ! (not work, idiot!)

"Who identification of life?" (Even minor forms such as Milan fans and fortitude) .-

"Taiga, but she died."

"move from the sacristy." (A steal communion wafers!)

"Let's divide into three groups: one passing through the center, a right wing (Ridgell ....) and a left wing. Arriving at the altar with Tayga ago point and can touch my butt ! "

"I feel the presence of only one person ... ... but the field is too magical powerful to be able to say more. "said the keeper. (Do not ever understand a shit, he thinks the Archmage) .-

" Finally-Jin Lyu is useful for something. "comments in a low voice Ailin (When you say the naive optimism ...).

"Finish what we do for your priestess, you must destroy the temple. It's too dangerous to leave it. We hope to have arrived in time! "Consideration of the Cleric everyone agrees (Especially Alkatel, that found in the word destroy a glimmer of understanding of his brain has yet mononeuronico for version 0.0) .- .

Finally, the team enters the field with the following line:

  • Balakov Askew and run through the side passage to the sacristy to get out from behind the altar. ( Gourmet ...) .-

  • Ailin, Ridgell, Apelios, Alkatel, Lyu-Jin, and Chiericone enter through the front door from the nave.

environments appear empty. The atmosphere as you enter the temple, the more it becomes heavy. (I will not dwell even more to explain why ...) The air is so imbued with magic that seems as thick as molasses. It is difficult to proceed. Put one foot in front of others requires great effort. The astonishment and concern shines on the faces of companions.

presbytery stands on a bare stone altar. The look of the cleric raised reassures us. Anyone who has uploaded the temple of magic, has desecrated the altar. The spell of resurrection is still possible.

Suddenly from the shadows of a column appears in a single miserable cleric Black is undoubtedly III Emorroides the evil , sent a smart ass. It is he who has overburdened the sanctuary.

Askew and Balakov come very quickly through the small door of the sacristy behind the altar and placed at the cleric's Black Following a few things happen quickly:

  • someone realizes that the powerful magical aura that pervades the temple, is nothing but an accurate spell of identification whereby Ass will be aware of even our most intimate secrets.

  • Chirico The Black launches scream "Miscredentiiiiiii ... ..!" and with the ritual dagger, supported by a generous dose of preparation H , cut his throat on the altar and poured dead fouling the same with his blood.

  • The Chiericone in turn screams "Noooooo! Tempiooooo desecrate the way!" and running wrapped in tens of meters of toilet paper , rushes forward.

  • Askew heard the anguished cry of Cleric tries to save the situation and a decision will try to move the body of the cleric Black

  • The corpse, when touched, explodes in full Chiericone hitting, injuring a smear of blood stain and the dwarf cursed and smelly sprays and marronicini , almost all of the altar.

  • The Chiericone huddled in the one corner of the altar pure realizing that it was broken by the terrible and eternal curse "perpetual stink" , spends all his energies to resurrect Tayga and to start ' self-destruction of the entire building their self-sacrifice in the act.

On the advice of Chiericone (when he was still alive, and flavored ....) Seize the living body of our female pope and in less than no time running away from Temple that behind us implode on himself with an exaggerated release of magic (type of ejaculation Godzilla and King Kong as a whole).

is done!

A flight Griffin take the longer route to the castle of King Anti-Summoned. Curiously enough the king greets us graciously.

  • 5 days

We rest to allow Tayga, still unconscious, to recover his strength.

Meanwhile open the ballot for the election of the Supreme Sovereign:

I hate elections, adds evoked the dark, I remind you that democracy is the worst form of government possible, just think that Stalin was elected ....

The day continues dull.

Towards evening the king summons us. Arrived before him we see his face worried and uncertain.

"Your friend, Prince Shaman, not with the army. You know where I can find?"

A cold shower down on the company. Where is it? Why not? These and many more are the questions that haunt the mind of all the comrades. In all but one of the magician. A clear "I told you that you could not trust the bastard son of a bitch" is printed very clearly on his face mockingly.

Becoming A Light Sleeper

Lost at The End: critical analysis

is not a wise staid, but a small (and sometimes ironic) critical discourse on all seasons of Lost taken individually but a careful look at the overall design of the series.

While waiting for the next two essays ("The Lost Film" and "Cuse & Lindelof: disciples of Stephen King") that I hope to publish as soon as I leave you with this thoughtful article for the summer:


FIRST SEASON


E 'the beginning of the greatest adventure that television has ever seen. The Pilot is a formidable and very exciting double episode. Lays the foundation for many interesting questions, from the right dose of mystery and presents fairly convincingly that many people will learn about during the season. The first barrels are

Walkabout and The White Rabbit . Are outlined in a wonderful way the characters of Locke and Jack and their dichotomy that comes to the end. Two episodes for the general funds of the series.

In the rest of the season there are parts good, some bad and some more successful. You can not talk about filler because every episode introduces us for the first time the characters, and this is one of the points in favor of the first season.

The attention to detail is obsessive. The dialogues inspired and very human.

pity that some actors show a number of shortcomings that ... are thankful to have had strong engagement in subsequent years.

elements are certainly central to the plot narrative: the Monster , the Hatch, Ethan and alleged Other, Rousseau and the Black Rock, the polar bear and Numbers.


vote 8 / 10


SECOND SEASON


After a wonderful start and genius. After entry into the scene Desmond resounding ... this is the season of Lost that suffers most of the surf in view of the authors.

Some episodes are shameful and some people feel more the weight and quality.

The question of push-push is as fascinating as the mysterious Dharma Initiative . Despite the various concerns that arise in the face of betting even if not exactly exciting season with the usual dose of mystery, the final cycle is extraordinarily exciting and eventful.

pity that the final cliffhanger Penny has not been developed in depth ... actually .. it is perhaps one of the things you let go a bit 'so ...

And if in the previous season, two episodes of Locke smashed asses, here is missing the masterpiece that puts everyone in agreement.

Among the more positive things: we begin to glimpse the potential of Henry Gale, who will learn to love like Ben Linus.

Die Shannon and Ana Lucia.


vote 7 - / 10


THIRD SEASON


The first was Lost it ends here. The initial course of six episodes is something absurdly repulsive to the exclusion of the initial twist (which recalls that of the second season), the 'entrance of the interesting Juliet (which at the end of the tour will be the most compelling female personality), the first Desmond's precognitive signals and sacrifice to allow the escape of Jack Sawyer and Kate.

When Lost returns after the long winter break hit the mark: Not In Portland Flashes Before Your Eyes and are masterpieces of immense, and if the first way gives us finally to understand some fundamental dynamics on the Others, the second shows the immense ability of authors to play with their characters and the entire plot of their series. Flashes is perhaps still the highest point of the series. From script to acting to end with the impeccable direction. Unfortunately

begin taking over the bow filler which, while adding some information here and there, they end up irritating the fans is that the authors themselves ... which I ask ABC to enable them to plan an end.

The results will come, and get the benefit are especially Locke and Juliet, who lord it in one way or another. The first in its desperate search for truth and purpose, makes us enter into the hidden mechanisms of the island and begins a relationship of cinematic wonder Benjiamin with Linus. An amazing duet.

The blonde is actually the only thing that keeps awake the interest in the affairs of the remaining castaways soporific image ... with the necessary exception of Charlie. That fight until the end, with the formidable tenacity and loving company of Desmond (desperately searching for his beloved) to escape from an inevitable fate.

The finish is also a separate discussion. Deserves a lot of words, and many many many it has been said. Jack begins to appreciate the character and how authors with a bet made with a crash, they can change the tables so brilliant and amazing. Hard to imagine anything better ... and in fact I do not think that after they succeeded. The great merit future will be to match several times this standard of quality, making Lindelof, Cuse and their team (enriched by the seventeenth episode onwards by the brilliant Brian K. Vaughan) and superfine authors worthy of the greatest praise.


rating: 9 / 10


FOURTH SEASON


The second part of Lost, some would say the second trilogy. The first eight episodes (with the exception of about Juliet) show that the new approach gives the desired results, and the masterpieces of shove one after another without interruption.

sensational New arrivals on the island: Faraday, Miles, Charlotte and Lapidus ... give added value to the whole series. And I thank wholeheartedly the authors for giving us these characters. The episode

symbol of the new course is The Constant . Unattainable love story beyond the limits of space and time. Tears flow and the myth of Lost salt.

I flasforward become the new full-time narrative mechanism, and the results give reason for the authors: the dull flashback the second and third season become only a bad memory.

The bad news is the dramatic and long writers' strike, which interrupts the wonderful story and the fear of seeing a clean break with the season ...

Things are recovered in extremis, but the feeling is that something is inevitably lost. Although the level of incidents remains high: The Shape Of Things To Come (written by the new super couple Vaughan / Goddard) is something wonderful and we deliver the best of Ben and also gives depth to one of the best supporting actors in the series, or Charles Widmore. Cabin Fever feeds the myth of Locke, in an episode from the entire ... and enjoy the season finale is a concentration of action and memorable scenes. Even if the island moves through the donkey wheel is a choice too courageous to be appreciated in the best ...

Lost begins to lose much of its connotations human drama to welcome with open arms the fantasy and science fiction.

Unfortunately, I am sure that without the strike we had a perfect season.


vote 9.5 / 10


FIFTH SEASON


For the first time, Lindelof and Cuse are able to design and implement a season from start to finish without any obvious hitches. And the results are excellent: the new mechanism of time travel works fine and also allows you to explore the island's past smoothly. The first seven episodes at the speed of light with an obsessive rhythm that puts a strain on the coronary arteries of the audience ... a race against time takes almost as much as that faced by Sawyer, Locke, Daniel, Miles, Juliet and Jin a part ... and Jack, Ben, Kate and other Sun ... a dichotomy (also visual and artistic, as well as fiction) very exciting. Culminating in the agonizing death of John Locke.

The only one who looks like a fish out of water is no longer Desmond. Definitely poorly managed, although playing a very good job when called upon.

eighth episode in the beat drops ... then you go back to introspection and character .. now all fallen into a very different reality. The storyline set at the time of the Dharma is very interesting - even if it could be better exploited in some places - but there is a subtle feeling that you are stalling waiting for something.

That something is the neutral fuse triggered by Faraday that leads Jack to create the famous Incident . That is also the name of the incredible season finale episode ... gigantic breath-taking throughout his long life. From the dramatic beginning with Jacob and Man In Black, which distorts all the cards on the table making us review all the whole series with different eyes (and I challenge you to find the authors are able to turn inside out a series with so much effect) ... to get to the final moments of pathos ... until the final written the colors reversed.

A season with a thousand items for discussion, thousands of details and a scientific study that adds even more depth to the series.

also seems to me that the quality of acting and technical elements in general have risen exponentially as the beginning.


vote 9.5 / 10


SIXTH SEASON


season that everyone expected. After nine months of unspeakable pending after a final that left open a thousand possibilities, the authors decided to try to change the tables back and refocus on the original characters.

I flashsideways not convince even a bit '. The dialogues are well kept, but the interest has shifted elsewhere and it's really hard to find someone who has been entranced by this new narrative model. Unfortunately, even the justification for the latest installment manages to remove the taste of shit left by some episodes. The premise of THE X were good (like the whole episode, perhaps the best premiere ever) and Happily Ever After get a bit 'too late to rearrange things.

island Man In Black is the master, and is genuinely three notches better than everyone else. And there seems to be no one to fight it until it arrives Charles Widmore, who does a nice job to make the story more interesting.

missing episodes of bomb previous seasons and the inevitable end comes, leaving unanswered questions and other minor merdifero flavor on the palate (the season for himself, not for quality, excellent, on the last episode). Moreover, the two mythological episodes, though they are well made and with many points of interest, seem too rushed and thrown away .... A pity, because they contain stories that deserved a full season to be told effectively.

The End with this in mind, and with great seasons and heavy behind, still manages to be the best possible final. Although little courageous than some choices of the past (Also recently) in the series.

The latest beats and sequences are creepy and returned to Lost the audiovisual history and our society.

Maybe you could do a little bit better here and there ... but that's fine as well. Nobody is perfect.


Note on: Michael Giacchino, composer exaggerated .. that last season reached peak absurd.

Then, with the elegance typical of a prince who has just killed a dick idiot, if goes, leaving to posterity the eternal words: "Dad, I've always been on the cock!. In addition you ally with cannon fodder. "

At the invitation of the king in his study where we go to drag the corpse of the paladin. The cleric raises (unfortunately ) Alkatel that unaware of what happened said: "So, when I slice the traitor of the prince!" Askew, pity, takes him aside and told him not too plain violent outcome of the duel.

"And now what do you think?" Calls King leaked by a haste and an undisputed point of impatience, the rest in the company are two disgusting evoked. "I think it's time to reclaim our" friend. "If I'm right you know where is it? The clock is ticking. In the meantime I will send my army to the aid of another sovereign ... ... .... Now go to rest. planning the matter tomorrow morning. "

Ailin the night, unbeknownst to all, develop a plan interesting .-

Ridgell In fact, with a hearing Alkatel inversely proportional to the intelligence of the heard muttering: "So where the hell I put the bat guano, parchment contact with minor deities, kerosene, dynamite, a pinch of saffron, three pounds of spaghetti alla carbonara, push ups, batteries for the vibrator, which uffa balls, silence , absolute secrecy. ... Ok, to bed now! ".-


-7 days

" So what do we do? To reach the Prince we'll enter the Temple and fight against all the clergy gathered there! " notes Apelios (always a sickening optimism) the next morning.

"The king said that they are all traitors and you will need to sacrifice them all." comments Alkatel sharpening his sword with great satisfaction. Not known magician who's angry gaze, completely bare of her spells, preferring to stay to make a tresette with the Reaper, a Dragon and Eceaclpe rather than go for trouble in the company of champions psicodispersi.

After an attempt to organize a strategy, the declaration does Ailin drop silence among those present. "Do not worry about the clergy, to those I think. Once" sterilized the temple will find a way to contact Prince Shaman and retrieve the medallion. Have the patience to wait ... ... ... .., about 5 hours, and everything will be ok! "

" But Ailin not believe that ... ... .., "begins Apelios, but was immediately silenced by Ridgell that watching with admiration his friend says "Good Apelios said the lucky optimistic, when to Ailin eyes shine so and swell even more pears it's time to trust and to give up many questions, I Said one who knows quite a while. Be confident! "

five hours go by in complete boredom at the end of which the group Ailin confirmation that the mission was successful." The temple is clean. All clerics traitors have been eliminated, but there is a problem, addition to the smell of garlic and onion, our friend is armored in the crypt and there is no way to access if not from the Small Temple "

" We go to the king and talk with him. "

reunited before the king, we begin to plan the recovery of the Prince Shaman.

"Sire, the prince speaks on the ticket of a crypt, accessible from the small temple. Could you tell us how to get there?" Ailin forgetting naively asks the king for the allergy evoked.

"You will feel the buzz?" says the king continued to entertain the rest of the group and turning their backs on that discriminate Ridgell and Ailin.

"Sire, the prince speaks on the ticket of a crypt, accessible from the small temple. Could you tell us how to get there?" requires tactfully Apelios.

"Yes indeed there is a small temple in the fortress. In the past, the lords of the castle used it to address their prayers to the gods, and in some cases to go to the Temple in disguise, through a dimensional door on the back wall of the room, which leads directly to the crypt ... ... ...., "the king responded with grace.

"Ahhh, well, can lead us to the small temple, so now we reach the Prince Shaman and we can ... ... .." comments Apelios satisfied, but is immediately interrupted by the king as a cold shower adds "... ... ... but now the Temple Small has not been used for decades. Something has taken over, I think a curse ... ... and all those who have previously tried to enter are no longer out ... ... ... .... Even on the side of the crypt ... ..!".

Despite risks after all children to participate in the derby Lazio Roma Inter clothes decide to tackle the unknown crypt of the trust in good fortune and our unquestioned ability.

Alkatel intrepid opens the door ... ... .... Beyond a dark impenetrable envelops the room, and an icy breath that smells like undead (so a little 'better than a fart Alkatel) caresses the company. For a moment the magic light lit by Apelios seems to open a gap in the wall of darkness, but when the stone is passed light in empty hands Ridgell the darkness takes over. Again, the magic light is placed in the hands of consecrated Apelios and ball of light appears to take courage and strength and slowly, but steadily, diffuses light to any room forever chasing the cold dark and disturbing. The Little Temple looks abandoned and dilapidated. Towards the end wall is a rickety stone altar on the floor and, oddly well-preserved, you can see the remains of four elves.

Just go a few steps inside the courtroom that the problems begin. The invisible spirits of the damned elves begin to maliciously play with the company. First they take possession of the magician's body, forcing him to throw a magic missile sull'ignaro Askew. Then it's time for Balakov who always had to ax begins to take more and the poor dwarf. Luckily, Ailin, in turn possessed by a ghost, unable to resist the invitation to malicious damage to his companions and targeted killing blow against himself.

Finally the magician, annoyed by the petty enemy's strategy and intrigued by the fact that it has launched successful spells in a situation where this would not have been possible, take a drastic decision and throw the whole area of \u200b\u200ban elemental spell hot ball of fire, relying on the hope of causing double damage to undead enemies and relying on the increased resistance of companions. The choice is a winner, the temple is carefully "sterilized" by the spirits of the undead ... ... ... ..., but also from the same Apelios Ridgell and falling to the ground in a coma.

was no longer count how many times this essay Apelios, coincidentally, falls astatine Archmage hand. Perhaps fate is not so ironic as he evoked the dark until now believed ... ..

Fixed (from Ridgell ....) the problem of the curse, we can go in the crypt of the temple where there is a Red Prince scocciatissimo Shaman. (He's pissed! But it goes far to hell ..) With him climb to the top floor of the temple and find a very satisfied-Jin Lyu already in possession of the sacred medallion. Unfortunately there is no track of our stuff, our books of magic. Ridgell holds barely (only because it is still in a coma ...) tears of anger and frustration. How will again be without its charms?

pick everything I said on that son of a bitch of destiny!

Despite the coolness with which he has received, the Prince Shaman, thanks to a powerful parchment before him by Chin finally and happily defungere, reminds us that should enlighten some situations:

  • murder of his wife by the hand of the Prince of Chin, as it was allied with the enemies, and probably because it was a great whore, he had already torn the brown and the evening was not over the pumps and the more prepared the infusion of rhubarb, anchovy and cardamom .

  • The medallion of the Black Temple is always very close to Ass, Ass to him indeed, probably in the ass ass , even if he, indisputable proofs pleasure is not yet able to use it.

  • If we enter the temple at the right time during the fighting armies, you will learn that Jin Lyu-butt thanks to a spell (the powerful and intriguing spell "bird swamp" that will make it known to fly up to the ...) that occulterà The two medals already in his possession. Now you can take the third trick with the medallion and acquire the power necessary to fight and win the dreaded enemy.

Now Apelios (unfortunately treated by too chiericone) by touch that sets it apart, without any embarrassment if he asks, Prince Shaman, we would accept any decision to choose the application to the High King of the continent the king of the neighboring kingdom, rather than support her.

There is clear why Prince Shaman, suddenly, it seems very, very pissed off!

... . Ridgell takes Apelios aside and explains that it is as if he had asked Berlusconi to accept the nomination of a Prime Minister Fini ... ...
