The Weather Report -JA > Yun - Jan 21 04:21pm

Academy Idol goes on, and it turns out that "Ash" is ahead of the pack by two points... Soon I'll be enlisting help in my search...

To boost the prize, I'm now removing the main prize being my padawan... And now awarding a award... No matter it be a Offical Jedi Academy Award or not, but I will be giving a (un)Offical Award for most prestigous player in the Jedi Academy. So that means anyone can compete, and this will be getting much more serious and open in the challenges. So all too particapate... The (un)Offical award for Most Prestigous Player in the Jedi Academy will be award to player who know the most, plays the most, known the most, and generally a all around great player.

So too all who wish to join, here is your first challenge:

Find the secret of the velocity increase jump (can be demostrated on the Jedi Academy map in the forbiddon temple) and jump from the one side of the gap(ramp side) to the other side (entrance side). You can do this ONLY in two jumps with force, if you want to. If you see me in a server, you may also demostrate to me this. Also, if you are making a demo, or showing me, you MUST explain to me how you did this, and how the velocity increase was acheived.

And now what everyone is waiting for... The weather report for Canada:
Ohh the weather outside is frightful
and the fire tonight is spiteful
Although no matter how much it blows
Let it snow let it snow... LET IT SNOW!

I've decided not to worry about that as of now... I'm gonna focus more on this Academy Idol thing, and besides... Ash is by far the sexiest candidate, I don't think anyone else stands a chance ;)

Might I add that I was NOT the first person to make the Canada quirk! *nose grows* That'd be a great idea to take a 4 hr Canada exam, Yun! *nose grows longer*

cHoSeN-oNe, I'd appreciate it very much if you stop mocking me and my homeland, if you are actually interested in Canadian History: Here is where you can read pretty much all you need to know...
http://www.nlc-bnc.ca/explorers/index-e.html

Exerpt from website:
Born around 1491 in Saint-Malo, France, Jacques Cartier had been navigating for many years when the King of France, François I, sent him to discover "certaines îles et pays où l'on dit qu'il se doit trouver grande quantité d'or et autres riches choses" ["certain islands and lands where it is said there are great quantities of gold and other riches"] as well as, if possible, the route to Asia.

In 1534, with 61 men, Cartier explored and named the shores of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Only the Strait of Belle Isle was known to European fishermen at that time. He took possession of the new territory in the name of the King and then, as did most explorers of the time, returned to France with two Native people (Taignoagny and Domagaya) kidnapped in Gaspé in order, as Cartier wrote, to get information from them.

In 1535, guided by Taignoagny and Domagaya, Cartier became the first European to penetrate the St. Lawrence River to "Canada," an Iroquois name for part of the region that became known as Quebec. The Native people of Stadacona (Quebec) having refused to accompany him, Cartier found other guides near present-day Portneuf to lead him to Hochelaga (Montreal). Wanting to impress the inhabitants of Hochelaga, Cartier put on his dress uniform, ordered his sailors into formation and entered the Iroquoian village to the sound of "trompettes et autres instruments de musique" ["trumpets and other musical instruments,"] which the local people had not seen before. After the festivities, the hosts brought Cartier to the top of Mount Royal, from which they explained the major waterways by showing him the rivers on the horizon that came from huge freshwater seas to the west. They also told him that the gold, silver and copper objects in their possession came from the northwest. Cartier concluded that the passage to Asia could not be very far.

Has anyone ever asked the question:
How did Canada get its name?

Well, I have studied this question and came to the following conclusion.

They put all their letters in a bag, and pulled them out one-by-one.

First Letter was C ey!
Second Letter N ey!
Third and final letter D ey!

Yun, your thoughts?
