Our task this week should you accept is to seek out and beat up a giant rock monster and steal his car on a stick. Totally would make an awesome and fitting titan weapon.
 Anyway for Numina I'll try and set it up for 7 PM Mountain time. 9 Eastern so go ahead and post your interest! Will take all comers level 35+ come earn your Xp or Notice if incarnate.

Essentially the SCOTUS bent over and said Congress can screw us from the IP that's in the public domain.
That said, Hey, Congresscritter? I'd like the rights to the Bible. All Languages.

Veni, vidi, vici. [I came, I saw, I conquered
Quote from Julius Caesar

Based on the possible Mission of the SS Fram to Wolf 359:
Wolf 359
'''Wolf 359''' is a small, dim, type M red dwarf star located approximately 7.7 light years from the Earth in the constellation Leo, near the ecliptic. It is classified as a UV Ceti-type flare star, and has a relatively high flare rate.
Wolf 359 is one of the nearest stars to the solar system; only the [[Alpha Centauri] system and [[Barnard's Star] are known to be closer.
Neither a Hubble search, nor a cursory fly-by by the Trekkies in late 2009 seemed to suggest the existence of a planetary. when the SS Fram visited Wolf 359 in a projected six month mission, it did detect a planetary system of four planets and one asteroid belt, with two planets forming a double planet system. That is was not detected is based on the systems eccliptic being different from most other planetary systems detected up to them.
== Planets ==
=== Heimdal ===
Named after the warden of Odin, Heimdal is a planet of the Hot-Neptune type, orbiting Wolf 359 in a closer orbit then Mercury orbits Sol. Because of this closeness, Heimdal does not possess any moons.
=== Muspellsheimr and Nifelheimr ===
This double planet system the single most important discovery of the entire Wolf 359 mission of the ''SS Fram'' as both planets are, while being situated well outside the Green Zone, bearing life. However both worlds are polar opposites.
==== Muspellsheimr ====
Named after the Norse Primordial element of Fire, Muspellsheimr, this planet is just that. Twice the size of Earth with a surface gravity of 1.5g, the planet is extremely geologically active and is currently the world with the most volcanoes. The planet does have a Nitrogen-Oxygen atmosphere, but it is not breathable by humans due to the presence of various toxins and a pressure of 10 bar on the planetary surface. Even through not close enough to its sun top be heated by it, the volcanic activity heats the atmosphere to a cozy 40 degrees Celsuis at average.
About 50 percent of the surface are covered by water through it is more of a thick soup like sludge containing a large amount of volcanic ash and sand. However it is also teething with microbial life as well as higher developed life forms.
The lower atmosphere of Muspellsheimr is likewise rather thick with volcanic ash and mircobial life, making it hard to see further then about fifty meters at good times of a day.
This does not preclude the existence of higher forms of life however. The dominant life form is a eight legged elephantine creature that absorbs food directly through its skin by processing the thick atmosphere. They were named FROB by the crew of the SS Fram. Other lower life forms exist as well, through there are no known predators due to the presence of nutriments all around them.
==== Nifelheimr ====
Named after the Norse Primordial element of Ice, Muspellsheimr, this planet is just that. Being the size of Titan, this planet is not as geological active as its twin, but enough to warm it up slightly. However the surface temperature does not raise over about -30 degrees Celsius with the common temperature being about -45 degrees Celsius.
Surrounded by a nitrogen atmosphere similar to Titan and a surface pressure of 1 bar, ammonia oceans and seas cover its surface.
Ammonia is also the base of the first sort of cryogenic life discovered. Dominant life forms are large moving plant like creatures that are named 'Ymir' by the crew of the SS Fram.
== Hel ==
Hel, named after the Norse plane of the dead, is the outer most planet of the Wolf 359 system and again a icy Neptune like object with a ring system and at least three moons.

Being curious, I downloaded the Magiranger movie, and the first few eps of Kamen Rider. Magiranger seems aimed at a somewhat younger audience and I get teh feeling I'm missing a lot by seeing Decade first, but they're both pretty good. Given that my main impression of the genre comes from the Danzaiver character in Evil Zone, and the only previous sentai-style shows I actually watched are Garo (which was awesome) the anime Karas (which at least had awesome fight choreography and appealed to my transofrmer love with the any-morph suits) and a few eps of s1 and 2 MMPR, the latter having given somewhat less that the best sort of impression, can anyone give reccomendations for mare good stuff to check out? I've seen a nifty toy review for the DX Samurai Gattai Shinken-Oh, but haven't looked up the show it comes from yet.

Dear god, hope you get the letter and...
I pray you can make it better down here
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
But all the people that you made in your image
See them starving on their feet
'Cause they don't get enough to eat from god
I can't believe in you
Dear god, sorry to disturb you but...
I feel that I should be heard loud and clear
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
And all the people that you made in your image
See them fighting in the street
'Cause they can't make opinions meet about god
I can't believe in you
Did you make disease and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind after we made you?
And the devil too!
Dear god don't know if you noticed but...
Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book
And us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look
And all the people that you made in your image
still believing that junk is true
Well I know it ain't, and so do you
Dear god
I can't believe in
I don't believe
I won't believe in heaven or hell
No saints, no sinners, no devil as well
No pearly gates, no thorny crown
You're always letting us humans down
The wars you bring, the babes you drown
Those lost at sea and never found
And it's the same the whole world 'round
The hurt I see helps to compound
That father, son and holy ghost
Is just somebody's unholy hoax
And if you're up there you'll perceive
That my heart's here upon my sleeve
If there's one thing I don't believe in
It's you
Dear god

Heart "If Looks Could Kill"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZQPGBrAMvA
Caught you in the act, can't put up with that
Messing where you shouldn't be
I wanna hear you say you're sorry
Cause nobody takes advantage of me
You're messin' with my heart, shooting in the dark
And pulling the wool over my eyes
Baby don't push me further
It's gonna hurt you if it happens twice
If looks could kill
You'd be lying on the floor
You'd be begging me please, please
Baby don't hurt me no more
If looks could kill
You'd be reeling from the pain
And you'd never lie again
If looks could kill
You're living on the edge, hanging by a thread
I'm watching every move you make
You don't want to see my anger
So don't you make another mistake
Love is on the line, I ain't about to be kind
That's a promise and a threat
If I was you I'd really cool it
Or risk a night you'll never forget
If looks could kill
You'd be lying on the floor
You'd be begging me please, please
Darlin' don't hurt me no more
If looks could kill
You'd be reeling from the pain
And you'd never lie again
If looks could kill
I was a fool to believe in you
A sucker for every line
I'm a little less blind
Than I was before
I can see right through your design
If looks could kill
You'd be lying on the floor
You'd be begging me please, please
Baby don't hurt me no more
If looks could kill
You'd be reeling from the pain
And you'd never lie again
If looks could kill
You'd be lying on the floor
You'd be begging me please, please
Baby don't hurt me no more
If looks could kill
You'd be reeling from the pain
And you'd never lie again
If looks could kill
If looks could kill
Power: gives Doug eyebeams (ala Cyclops or Superman's heatvision)

The SS Fram is one of the most interesting vessels in Fenspace and a signs that there is astronomical and planetary research done by others than the Trekkies, Artemis or the Soviets, any one of the few vessels operating under 'danelaw.
Owned by the Tycho Brahe Institute for Interstellar Research, a Scandinavian Institute backed by the governments of Norway, Finland, Sweden and Denmark and founded in 2009, the SS Fram is a purpose build hull largely based on the German icebreaker research vessel RV Polarstern, adapted to a space environment, but very well capable of operating on sea, especially in polar regions.
She is well equipped with a variety of sensors and research compartments, especially a pair of 2.5 meter reflector telescopes and a phased radar array designed for planetary surveys.
However only the barest minimum of Handwavium was utilized by the construction, mostly in the energy and propulsion systems as well as in the life support systems. However some Handwavium came into contact with the ships modern computer system during the 'waving of the life support, leading to the development of the AI Fridfjof Nansen, based on the builder of the original Fram.
During the first research mission to Jupiter and the discovery of non-Earth life in the sub-Europa ocean (simple microbiotic life) she was attacked by a small band Twilik pirates, but was able to defend against them, resulting in the crew being termed 'Space Vikings' and honorably adopted by the Puplers.
In the wake of the attack they got a gift of several Battle steel viking weapons from Hephaestus.
Other notable missions lead to Titan, Triton and the Oort Cloud before leaving the Solar System to visit Wolf 359 in late 2016.
Known Vehicle Quirks:
'Hall of the Mountain King': The ship works best if the PA systems plays music from Scandinavian countries of all kinds. However all systems, whether waved or not, actually decrease in effectiveness if ABBA is played.
'Lo, There do I see my father': If the ship is under attack all crew members or scientists of Scandinavian descent become, well, effectively Vikings. It is said that the Chief Mechanist, Thor Leifson (build like Thor out of the comics) managed to defeat a power armored Twilik during the attack near Europa.
'This is not cold...': The ship is very effective in any surface cryogenic environment it may be exposed to, leading to more discoveries then normally expected.
