Hey Everybody, I'm Back!
Hi everybody it's Nate and I am posting to tell you that I am back and ready to blog! I'm sorry, but after I finished my website I just kind of had a whole lot more going on, and didn't have time to blog. But now I have more time than ever so I think that you will be hear about this a lot more. Oh, and if you check my blog in December, then you might see pictures of a hamster that I will be getting around that time. My websites URL is here at: https://sites.google.com/site/orotomocondorsvultures/. I am also creating a website on a different site creator called Angelfire, and it will be about small animals. Like Ferrets (which are my personal favorite), hamsters, rabbits, and chinchillas. I will also be creating a forum for fans of my websites and/or my blog. Thank you for your time in viewing this post

Quick Facts About the Rocky Mountains
Hey everybody, today I will be talking about the Rocky Mountains. I actually had a choice to talk about Osama bin Laden's death or the Rocky Mountains. I chose the Rocky Mountains because most of my viewers probably wouldn't agree with my opinions. Also, don't get me wrong, his death was a good thing.
The Rocky Mountains extend over 3,000 miles of land from New Mexico to Canada and even into Alaska.
The Rocky Mountains form the Continental Divide, separating waters from the Atlantic and Arctic oceans from the Pacific Ocean.
The highest peak of the Rocky Mountains, Mt. Elbert, is in Colorado and is 14,431 ft high.
The Rockies are usually divided into five sections, the Southern Rockies, Middle Rockies, Northern Rockies, the Rocky Mountain system of Canada, and Brooks Range in Alaska.
The Wyoming Basin is sometimes considered a sixth section.
Well, there you go, here are five facts for you

Bartimaeus Nathaniel Post One
Hey everybody, today I will be talking about Nathaniel's role in my book since I last posted.
Since i last left off, Nathaniel got his official name, John Mandrake. Three days later, he went to a conference at Parliament and saw a kid with an elemental sphere (Elemental Sphere: A sphere of magical power that contains all four elements, earth, water, fire, and wind.) that exploded and damaged some, but not many people. He tried to summon Bartimaeus, but he was captured and was in the tower of London, where many demons are stored to be interrogated. He was caught spying on his master and was going to be punished until Simon Lovelace showed up. Bartimaeus came back at the same time that Simon showed up. Simon then found the Amulet of Samarkand in Underwood's study and burned the house to the ground. Nathaniel got out alive with Bartimaeus and currently are in a library.
Well, that is Nathaniel's part in the story so far. I hope you enjoyed this post and that you will read the book someday, farewell.

Bartimaeus: The Amulet of Samarkand Part Three
Hey everybody, today I will be blogging on Bartimaeus again. I have read more of Nathaniel's story and more of Nathaniel's story. Here is the summary of Nathaniel's part that I read.
The next chapter I will tell you about tells about the time when Simon Lovelace first met Nathaniel. Nathaniel was outside in the garden with Ms. Lutyens, his art teacher, when Mrs. Underwood came bursting out of the door telling him that Mr. Underwood wants to show him to other magicians. So Nathaniel ran through the house and walked through the door to Mr. Underwood. Mr. Underwood showed him to an old person that didn't say his name, a very clammy person that didn't say his name, and Simon Lovelace. Lovelace asked Nathaniel some questions which he answered correctly, which led to Simon calling him stupid. Nathaniel called him a sore loser, so Simon shouted a command and Nathaniel was being held back by demons under Simon's control. Nathaniel ran out of the room once Simon let go of him. He went up the stairs and into Underwood's study. He grabbed a glass box filled with demon mites and a hammer. He said Simon's name, smashed the box open, and the mites attacked Simon, the clammy man, and the old person. Once that happened, he ran into the schoolroom where Ms. Lutyens was waiting. Then, Simon opened the door and summoned his imp. The imp picked up Nathaniel and beat him until he was unconscious.
In the next chapter it tells about what Nathaniel did after that, which I will tell you in 2-3 sentences.
Nathaniel summoned and captured an imp which he uses to spy on people. He then used his imp to spy on Lovelace. He found out how he is going to get Simon back, by summoning Bartimaeus and stealing the Amulet of Samarkand.
I haven't read much on Bartimaeus so you can read about that in my next post, farewell.

Bartimaeus Post 2
Hey everybody, today I will be posting the second blog post for Bartimaeus. All that I have read since my last post is more things about Nathaniel. I have read about Nathaniel's teachers and what they teach him. He has three teachers, one for his basic learning skills like geometry, other languages, math, and all of those other kills that we would learn in school. Then he had a teacher for drawing and a teacher for music. Both of which are useful to a magician. They need music to all or calm down certain types of demons. Drawing can be used for a number of things, like summoning, certain types of spells, and a lot of other things.
I hope that you have enjoyed this post and that you will read the book yourself someday, farewell.

Bartimaeus: The Amulet of Samarkand
Hey everybody, today I will be talking about the book called Bartimaeus: The Amulet of Samarkand.
The setting takes place in London, England. Bartimaeus is a magical being called a djinn, and there are more djinni then just him. So far I have read chapters 1-8 of the book. What's interesting about this book is that it switches between the characters Bartimaeus and Nathaniel throughout the chapters. So far Bartimaeus's storyline has been this.
Bartimaeus was summoned by Nathaniel and was told to steal the magical artifact called The Amulet of Samarkand from Simon Lovelace, a very well-known magician, and bring it to Nathaniel. Bartimaeus snuck into Lovelace's mansion and stole the amulet. But as he tried to get out, he ran into two other djinni, Jabor and Farqual, that were summoned by Simon Lovelace. When he got out, Bartimaeus changed into a bird and flew away from the mansion. Then, he got tired and changed into the form of a boy and hid among the crowd. After that, these kids started chasing after Bartimaeus until finally he shook them off, or so he thought. Bartimaeus then almost went to sleep in an alleyway, until the kids that were chasing after him caught him. Bartimaeus changed into an alligator and got them away from him. Then, he changed into a fox and hid in a trash can until the night police showed up and took away the kids.
This has been Nathaniel's story so far.
Nathaniel's first chapters tells about an experience with demons when he was only six years old. His master, Arther Underwood told him to go into his study and put on some glasses that were in a metal box. So, he went down into his study and then pencils started flying out of a cup on his master's desk. This scared him so he instantly found the glasses and put them on. He saw a lot of small demons standing still until the noticed that he had the glasses on. Then, they tackled him. The next chapters of Nataniel's story tell about how he came to Underwood. His parents saw an advertisement somewhere that said if you give in your child to a magician to become their apprentice, they will pay you. So Nathaniel's parents dropped him off, got their money, and left. Nathaniel was told to forget about his past and his name. Nathaniel's master's wife, Martha, told him that he could share his name with her. At the point where I stopped reading, Martha was being very kind to Nathaniel, and Underwood didn't like that.
That's is the story so far, I hope you enjoyed this blog post and that you will read the book sometime, farewell.
