Montrée was one of the most enthusiastic members of the NiaD family, and her passion (and chasing) certainly helped keep the event running this long! The more I’ve learnt over the past few weeks about this remarkable woman, the more and more respect I have for her. I won’t share specific details here since she deliberately chose to use a pen name for her writing, but trust me — she was one of the good ones. Taken far too young. We’ll miss you.

In 2003, the staff at Paignton Zoo gave a computer to six crested macaques and categorically proved that what you actually get is five pages of the letter ‘S’ and a broken keyboard. Time, it seems, is no substitute for talent. But can talent substitute for time…? The book you are about to read was written over the course of a single day in October 2017. For those unfamiliar with the concept of Novel-in- a-Day, it’s simple: - A skeleton of a plot is worked out in advance of the day - That plot is broken into sections, which are divided amongst the participants randomly - The writers have most of the rest of the day to write and return their chapters, working with no knowledge of the wider story or their place in it. I hope you enjoy reading the book as much as we loved putting it together. Tim October 28, 2017 Start Wearing Purple chapter one Patrick Edmonds AUGUST 2005 Alcatraz Island. The formidable military installation turned penitentiary that had imprisoned the most notorious villains of our time. Terrordon gazed on it without wonder. There was no surprise why the Sleepwalker had chosen to take it hostage. It was the perfect hideaway sprawled in the middle of the San Francisco Bay with practically no means of ambush, no means of escape. Practically. Everyone knew the island´s infamous escape artists Frank Morris and the Anglin Brothers. But few knew of the other failed attempts that ended with the bodies of convicts frozen by the icy waters being washed up on the shores of the bay. Some were carried away to sea by the current, only to be accidentally recovered by fishermen a hundred miles away. Even the strongest swimmers would succumb before reaching the shore less than a mile and a half away. A few escapees— while never found—were believed to have been dragged to the depths of the ocean and devoured by sharks—though there 1 were no man-eating sharks in the bay. Yes, people knew of the escape artists and would be escapees; the island thrived on such tales which garnered the city millions of dollars in annual tourist revenue. No one really knew of attempts to infiltrate Alcatraz, though. There was that once rumored time in 1996, back when he was just a boy, but no one remembers. Some megalomaniac had taken Alcatraz hostage then, too, but the subsequent siege had been led by a crack military outfit and ex-Alcatraz inmate. Terrordon was on his own. He would have to be careful, yet quick. The bombs were ticking. Terrordon put on his slim magnifying goggles and surveyed the circumference of the 3-story prison, which looked, ironically, more like a summer house. Henchmen were stationed along the perimeter and in the lighthouse, the guard tower, even on the defunct water tower. Over two dozen, paired in twos and sometimes threes, not a lone gunman among them. Sleepwalker, for all his diabolism, was smart. Hell, were megalomaniacs ever not smart? The easiest criminals to apprehend were always the ones who were passionate about their crimes, led by uncontrolled anger, greed, or insanity; the kind that cackled at others distress and made longwinded speeches because their purpose was not to be free, but to be remembered. Their emotions were a detriment and caused needless mistakes, like sending all their henchmen at once to take out Terrordon—or gathering them all in once convenient location—only to have those minions obliterated with one swell swoop. This is why I must stop you, Terrordon mused. You are a threat because you have no emotions. Of course, this detachment, while perhaps a strength for Sleepwalker, was also his Achilles heel. The lunatics, while 2 easier to apprehend, were infinitely more unpredictable. They would just as soon toss their hostage off a building in a tantrum without realizing they’d just tossed away any bargaining power. Or they’d detonate every bomb at once just for the hell of it, even if it killed them, too. And they were notoriously difficult to find, never hiding in the one place you assumed they would. Sleepwalker, on the other hand, was no average maniac. His lunacy had logic. He didn’t just want to cause havoc, he wanted to cause suffering. He wanted not only to be remembered, but free as well. Which meant he would predictably hide himself in an area of Alcatraz that was both easy to escape and easy to defend from all angles, no corners, no blind spots. The warden’s house. Or, at least, what was left it. The ruins were perfect a perfect command station to see everything and everyone coming from above, from ahead, from beyond, so long as you had enough eyes to cover you. Terrordon trained his gaze north again to the lighthouse, where three armed guards formed a triangle in the booth. He shifted his view down to the adjacent mansion, gutted by fire and time, but its large windows still solid and overlooking the bay and, nearby, the . heliport. You gave yourself a front row seat to the carnage! Not today, my friend. Not ever. A flash of purple skirted across his vision as other guards on the ground walked into view, clustered around something or someone as they entered the ruins of the warden’s house. Terrordon slipped off the goggles and started the Jet Ski he’d stolen from the harbor. There was no other way to confront Sleepwalker but head-on: no stealth maneuvers, no element of surprise except the surprise of an open ambush. There was no 3 time for strategic planning; the clocks were ticking. He’d have to expose himself as he came up the flank and entered at the Dock Tower. Terrordon gunned the ski and shot off across the bay, his cape waving behind him as both a beacon of hope and a shield against the water sprayed by the powerful machine slicing the rough currents. As he neared the island he raised a miniature gun and shot it towards the lighthouse in quick succession. Two guards were hit and fell moments later. The third turned and started shooting rounds from a machine gun as Terrordon raced up the path the short distance towards the ruins. Henchmen lined the road like centurions, and as he passed through, they, too, opened fire. He could do little more than duck as the bullets flailed, hitting other henchmen and whizzing past his ears. He stopped short and dropped to his knees as guards assailed him from ahead. Throwing the cape around his body, he activated the electromagnetic bulletproof shield on his utility belt. The force of the bullets pushed him back and he dug his heels into the ground with spiked cleats. In moments, if he didn’t move, the barrage of bullets would deactivate the field and he’d be a dead man. He could think of only one thing to do. Daringly, Terrordon snatched a grenade from his belt as he plugged his ears with one swift motion and with the next threw off the cape and tossed the grenade in front of him. It detonated immediately, and, though it didn’t kill his adversaries, the sonic blast deafened and immobilized them.

  • Municipality of Anchorage Anchorage Assembly
    MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE ANCHORAGE ASSEMBLY Minutes for Regular Meeting of June 13, 2000 continued to June 20, 2000 1. CALL TO ORDER: The meeting was convened at 4:00 p.m. by Assembly Chair Fay Von Gemmingen in the Assembly Chambers, 3600 Denali, Anchorage, Alaska. 2. ROLL CALL: Present: Dan Kendall, Dan Sullivan, Dick Tremaine, Allan Tesche, Kevin Meyer (4:05 p.m.), Melinda Taylor, George Wuerch, Anna Fairclough, Pat Abney, Fay Von Gemmingen, Cheryl Clementson. Absent: None. 3. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: The pledge was led by Mr. Wuerch. The Assembly changed the orders of the day to consider item 13, Board of Adjustment/Assembly Appeals. Appeal S-10521, BLM Lots 84 & 85, Section 15 Subdivision with Variance, Clerk's Office. Mr. Tremaine reviewed the issues of the appeal, the subdivision of two lots into two different lots. Assistant Municipal Attorney Dennis Wheeler distributed copies of the applicable Municipal Code citations for the case. Mr. Tremaine noted the petitioner requested a 50-foot vacation to the north and to the east. The Platting Board recommended a 20-foot vacation, leaving a 30-foot public easement in each direction. The petitioner did not mention the north vacation, but continues to request a 50-foot vacation to the east, on Jupiter Drive. Mr. Tremaine noted the Platting Board considered several factors, including traffic circulation. Traffic is appropriate for the north vacation, but not for Jupiter. Jupiter, a north/south street, begins on Abbott Loop Road and ends in publicly-owned property which is contiguous with Ruth Arcand Park. He said the south end of lot 85 is steep and probably will not support a developed trail, but there will be some public use; there is a game trail crossing that parcel.
