SINNERS HQ DEMOLISHED



    Thursday, demolition began on Sinner's HQ and future site of the Destiny Two Tower.  Mayor Whacked and his wife Fi started the demolition on what was previously known as Sinner's Headquarters.  Working with the construction crew, they started to demolish the building.  By the time they were hauling the remains in dump trucks to the water's edge near the bridge where they proceeded to dump it into the water contaminating our once again clean water supply, others had started to hear the news, Sinner's included.  Sinner's didn't appreciate losing their HQ attempting to put the demolition to a stop.  Words were lost on them as the Mayor attempted to speak with Zeke, boyfriend of Sinner's President, Presh.  He was too angry by this time to listen and instead decided to shoot a few bullets aimed in their direction.  Mayor Whacked, his wife and Dina, Syn City Bank's CEO were taken down in the gun fight.  The police weren't there to defend their Mayor.  Sinner's have been verbally told they'll have a place to use as their HQ in the new Annex that is under development but are on the verge of losing it after the gunfire on Thursday.  Zeke was heard stating "We are not going into the shitty cramped annex."  Only time will tell.
    Sinners weren't the only ones riled up this day as some were quite upset about the dumping of the "trash" into the City's water supply.  One such citizen could be heard yelling "THIS IS PUBLIC AREA DUMPING YOU KNOW!?"  As many Synizens know, several months ago, Syn City's water supply was declared contaminated and the CDC called in to clear up the condition brought on by several different causes and only in the past few months was it declared free of contamination.  The current Mayor, only an officer of the law at that time being one of the city's civil servants responsible for following through and making sure the water was restored to acceptable conditions.  It was a shock to many to see him now responsible for contaminating it once again.  The extent of the contamination at this time is unknown.
    When the Mayor was approached concerning the allegations as well as the rumours being spread about him, he put out the following press release in response.


"From the office of the Mayor, The Honorable Most Excellent Supreme Leader Doctor Whackadeaux Amadeus Allouicious Frederico Billy Bob Claremont Ferdinand Von Destiny III

Re: Sinners HQ, Gang Issues in our city, and vicious lies regarding the Mayor

It has come to the attention of the Mayor that the confusion of the citizens is breeding rumors and widespread paranoia and fear bordering on panic.  The Mayor wishes to let everyone know that not only is a new Sinners Headquarters coming soon to the freshly cleared land, but that gang activity in Syn City is at an all time high.  The Mayor, in his counter-intuitive mentality knows that in fact gang warfare and activity is good for the city, especially since the PD has almost tripled the amount of revenue being brought in by bribes and bails.

The B&B task force (bribes & bails)  within SCPD has been hard at work to deliver excellent options for the lesser skilled criminals within the city (i.e. the ones who get caught) and the new programs involving high bribes for immediate release or lesser bail payment for controlled justice are easing the overcrowding in the jail that began once the old PD was torn down.  The new PD is smaller people, and let's face it jail time will be less pleasant in the future.

As for the Syn City DC Project the bonds approved by the voters have been 85% used up and the Mayor has announced the delay of the Destiny Two Tower indefinitely.  Instead, the Sinners Motorcycle Club will be allowed to rebuild a headquarters on the site, which shall remain city property under lease to Sinners. 

In a moving speech given during a particularly lucid moment the Mayor had this to say: "Honey? Where's my super suit?""






VIPERS PROCLAIM RULE OVER SYN



    Late in the  night Monday, Vipers made their way about the City putting up signs and artwork on headquarters in the city leaving no HQ front door untouched.  The artwork displayed so clearly on the old Sinner Headquarters not only insulted Sinnoso, the Sinner and Oso alliance but also seemingly intended to call out Crisis, local Sinner boss.  This isn't the only tagging to place lately, it seems the amount of HQ fires has decreased while the amount of tagging has increased giving insurance companies a reprieve I'm sure.



RECEIPTS BETA SYSTEM STARTS FEB 1st



    Sunday it was announced that the Receipts System Deputy Mayor Dolly has been working on since her days serving on the city council, will do a beta test run running from February 1st through March 15th.  It is hoped the system will improve the economy going on the economic data provided.  Each business participating will keep a record of transactions between the business and the consumer.  When a consumer makes a purchase, the business makes a receipt giving it to the customer.  The customer then turns that receipt in to the drop box located on the 1st floor of City Hall.  The city empties the receipt box and records the collected data and based on the amount of Brunsens spent, the business owner will receive Brunsens in which to pay it's employee's salaries.
    The information supplied to the city will be used to create economic policies.  This is just the beta test to gauge reactions and is completely voluntary.  Businesses participating in the beta system will have a placecard at their business to inform the others that they are participating.  It is the hope of Deputy Mayor Dolly and others that this system will be the first step to improving our economic system "We have all become hoarders saving up all our Brunsens for licenses and bail. While business owners are spending their savings to maintain their business and employees, run ads and promotions, taking a risk to better our community... all on their own. They do it without support, but support is needed in the long run. Today ah am here to tell ya'll that soon they will have that support with a plan ah been working on."  If all goes as planned, economic situations are expected to improve for all involved from the Consumer and business owners small and large alike, to the City "for the first time ever, the city is going to support both independent and group owned businesses by giving the business owner bonus Brunsens that will be based of a percentage of earnings through receipts. Thats right ya actually taxing us, the city for running a darn good business, providing jobs and bettering the city. The goals of the business owner and the city are aligned, its about time we work together. "  Next Sunday, the Deputy Mayor will have a kick off conference to inform the citizens of which businesses will be participating in the beta test.  For more information on the Receipts Beta System, please contact your Deputy Mayor, Dolly Swizzle or stop by the new City Hall, Destiny Tower One for a brochure regarding the program.



CITY HALL MEETING
((Part OOC, Part IC))


    Thursday, a city meeting was held at the new City Hall in which the discussion took place with the Mayor and Deputy Mayor about the new land to be acquired by the city and what to do with it despite the City's lack of Funds.  Some key topics or ideas that were discussed are listed below.  The recordings of the meeting was quite chaotic but we did our best to decipher them and pull out the most repeated and agreed on ideas.  As far as the new land is concerned, nothing is set in stone as of yet.  The discussion has merely started.  The Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Council want to be sure it's done right the first time so much more planning is expected.  As a side note, as of Thursday, City Hall is no longer a safe zone.

1.  There will be no residences on the new land.
2.  Bank owned businesses would be available for both rp and combat and would be moved to the new land.
3.  No safe zones in the new land.
4.  1v1's allowed in the old lands but no sim crossing during combat.  Once you are fighting in a sim, you can't go to the other.
5.  All shops and businesses on the new sim will NOT be sz's.  No vendors allowed.
6.  Fewer safe zones in old lands limited to the club and rented apartments or houses only.
7.  Homeless shelter on the land with a teleport to one in the air for campers.  From which campers can jump or tp down to the ground area.
8.  Gang territories with HQ's and businesses clustered together in their designated area.
9.  Script count on avy's lowered from 250 to 150.
10.  Limited crossing points from one sim to the other.
11.  PD and bail system improvement with a prison added on old land where you spend time until your court date if not bailed out.
12.  The idea came up to put the HQs all in the new sim and split the city into "wards", that would allow areas for safe(ish) rp if you're on your own turf and getting your ass kicked if you stray into the wrong part of town
13.  More common rp areas such as warehouses, parks, etc
14.  Historically, the city is set for 4 gangs plus the PD.  If a new gang wants to arise, they must get it approved by Kali and grow themselves eventually running another previously established gang out of town.
15.  Neutral areas in the middle of the new area that can be taken in gang wars such as businesses and parks.
16.  Forward any ideas you have to Whacked (whacked.destiny) or Dolly Swizzle.

Page 3: Who's Who
***********************************************************************************


Written by: Amy Moseley


In this weeks Who's Who, we have none other then the badass Sinners VP himself, Crisis! He's pretty well known across the city, well respected by some Synizens, although hated by others. Well for those who don't know all that much about him, here's your chance to catch up! Well, along with so many others currently living in Syn City, he had a rough start to life. He was 'born in the west somewhere' along with his twin, Spoiled Khaos, but unfortunately their mother gave them both up when they were at a young age of just 2 and they were split up. He was then adopted by a new family, and things didn't really go to plan there for Crisis, he claims to have been beaten up by his abusive foster parents, around the age of 15, he ended up murdering them both with his foster sister, Sami but they were caught in the act, and he was imprisoned for 10 years.  Once he got out of prison, he had nowhere to go, no place to call home until Sami brought him to Syn City.  After wandering out the streets of Syn for a while, just happy to be out of prison after 10 years stuck in a cell, he eventually joined Vipers MC, his foster sister believed it was going to be his new family, he did enjoy some of the time he had at Vipers, he was a bit of a badass biker at the time, riding around and drinking all the time with Black Venom, but eventually he and Black had some sort of falling out and didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Around that time, he had already fallen in love with Celestia Rae, who is currently his beautiful wife and the current Sinners MC Vice President.

He first met the love of his life when he was hanging out with Black, when he was still in Vipers.  At the time, the hatred between Sinners and Vipers wasn't so bad, and they were occasionally able to hang out without it resulting in bloodshed and bullets.  Crisis and Black decided to visit Sinners bar one day, and he was introduced to Fiona, Smexy and none other then Celestia. The moment he met her, has astounded, he immediately knew he'd stumbled on something amazing.  As I was interviewing Crisis, he began reminiscing about how she talked, walked and well, looked! It was quite the issue for him, being in love with someone from the enemies gang, but eventually it all worked out well for him, he left Vipers for Sinners, and began working up the ranks of Sinners, and eventually achieved Vice President of Sinners, the role he currently holds to this day.  Things for him and Celestia just improved after he joined Sinners, he married her on June 5th, 2012 and they had a beautiful baby girl together named Aubrey Rayne Bleeds, that's 1 1/2 years old.

When asked about his future at Syn and the possibility that he would always remain a Sinner, he was very blunt and honest in his response, as those that know Crisis, he always is. ''I am not a bullshit sort of guy, I can't say I will always be a Sinner, in profession, shit happens and people die, but I will ALWAYS be a Sinner, that means more to each one of us and for that I is proud, wherever I am, I'll be kicking ass and loving my family. Those others better hope I don't run out of the latter, cuz then there's just one thing left". They were rather strong words there from the Sinners VP, he clearly cares deeply for his family at Syn and would seemingly do anything to protect it. Most of us know what happened to the Sinners Headquarters by now, and well for those of you that don't, the Syn City Mayor, Mr Smith tore it down! When Crisis was questioned about it, he thought it may have been unsafe and had some issues, but wasn't quite sure, but for tearing down his home, the mayor better watch his ass, because Crisis is! He was rather quick to reword what he said after he realized how ridiculous it sounded, but it sounds like a bit of a warning for the mayor to me. He believes the mayor knows the right thing to do, and if he's given enough time, perhaps 'given enough time to think and with a little persuasion, he'll make the right choices, make of that what you will!

He firmly believes the future of Sinners, in his personal opinion, is limitless.  Sinners never have the time to relax as they're nearly always surrounded by riff raff around the city, but alike any club, business or friendship, there is ups and downs but one thing Sinners will ALWAYS do is bounce back up, no matter what.  He did say that Sinners were in the process of giving back to the community of Syn having just struck a deal with the well known Toys for Tots program.

Well there you have it, the story of Crisis, the Sinner VP.  He did have one final message for the citizens of Syn, his voice rose somewhat louder as he said this, so be warned! ''We're coming for you!!'' was his message to the public, and if anyone had a problem with him, they could come take it up with him personally!

❖ Rumor Has It
**Have you heard a rumour you want to share?  Send it to us.**

1.  Zeke may be the boyfriend of the Sinner's President but that doesn't mean he knows how to control Sinners...perhaps a recent example this week is why.  Sinners had Isabella, the DA boss capped and when Zeke tried to get the ransom for her, Tanner told him to back off...she was his cap.  Hmm...is that why Sinners is so unorganized...lack of respect?

2.  Zeke tried to arrest the Mayor for a document approved by Fail and Mass.... who is Fail's assistant, but also a Sinner.  Why didn't he speak with the Sinner members before shooting at the Mayor?  Some believe the city needs some fresh blood...new citizens because everyone is family here.  Fi, the Mayor's wife was shot by her own brother in the demolition confusion Thursday.  The family is definitely in need of counciling so that they can sit down and talk about what is happening.  It has been suggested that there be a school built to educate the citizens on how to deal with anger issues and to help improve familial relationships.

3.  Apparently even Gang Bosses enjoy kinky fun time to time as is apparent by the picture of JJ in a collar taken while Hyst screamed out "Let it be known, JJ AKA King, is MINE NOW".

4.   It has been rumored, that with the city taking the Sinners HQ, Precious has taken her retribution and poisoned the Mayor.  Mr. Whacked has been ill for a number of days...coinciding with the first signs that went up announcing the building being condemned and to be replaced by the new Destiny building.

5.  The health of the Mayor isn't the only thing being questioned lately.  It is also rumoured that his sanity may be an issue as well.  One citizen was heard saying "the mayors been doing crazy shiz all damn day!"  Others would argue that it hasn't been just one day but almost the entire time he's been in office.  Is it true?  Has our Mayor lost his mind?  Is whatever is keeping him under the weather the cause for him losing his sanity?

6.  According to Sam and Black, all the Vipers money is at hill but you have to wear a hot dog suit to find it.

7.  Mr Fredo Gotti's preference is to to sit alone, playing only with himself according to a statement heard at the City Hall meeting this past Thursday.

8.  Red's recent makeover is getting her more attention then expected.  It seems the changes have brought about her having a stalker who has fallen in love with her that goes by the name of David.  I wonder what her parents think about some strange man telling others he's in love with the redheaded slut.  Has she told her overbearing protective father about her stalker?

9.  Dia's been keeping herself busy and Alister is apparently working on collaring girls to add to his chain again according to local rumour.  He collared Dia for three days recently.  Who will be next?  Was it willing or forced?  What does Dia's husband, local police officer Kombo think of this?  Will there soon be a warrant out for Alister's arrest or perhaps one for Dia's to protect her.

10.  As of today, there is one less happy couple in Syn...Bruce and Care are done and according to one source, it's for good this time.

Hotel Meeting Pt. I
Written by:  Anonymous

    I make my way to the hotel, You told me to go and to see the person in the lobby when I get there at a certain time and date, that's all you say.  I get to the hotel and tell the person behind the desk my name and they hand me an envelope.  I step away from the desk and open the envelope, inside is a key to a room and a note.  The note says to go to the room.  So I go to the room, open the door, go in and there on the bed is a blindfold, a small clit vibrator and a note.  The note says to remove my clothes, lay on the bed with my arms and legs spread, put on the blindfold, the clit vibrator on low against my clit and to wait, not to move until further instructed.  If the vibrator moved, I put it back into place, that was all I was allowed to move. 

    I wait and wait about an hour or so, the vibrator against my clit constantly teasing me but only enough to make me want more.  I hear a door open and foot steps lightly falling upon the carpet.  I lay there waiting, still, then had to reach down and put the clit vibrator against my pussy more and felt a hand on mine holding it there knowing I was to play with myself and so I did as the hand fell away, I lay there, holding the clit vibrator to my clit, not hearing a sound or feeling a touch.  A few mins later a hand takes mine and I feel rope against my wrist as it's tied and then the other before my ankles are tied as I'm bound there naked on the bed, clit vibrator against my clit, blindfold on.  Then a feel a single fingertip slowly sliding over my body, across my chest, down my stomach, down my inner thighs, then back up and along my pussy slit biting my lower lip as the fingertip feels my wetness and my pussy reflectively flexes at the touch.  The clit vibrator is removed. 

    I feel something light, soft, a little ticklish being dragged over my body before something else that's rougher but still feels good.  I lay there as a variety of things with different feels to them are dragged across my body, writhing now and then from the pleasure.  Then I feel myself being pulled up before my hands are tied behind my back, my feet freed then pulled down to the floor and pushed onto my knees before feeling a cock touching my lips and I open my mouth and slowly start sucking, next thing I know my mouth is being fucked as a hand grabs my hair forcing me to take it.  You grab me by my hair and pull me up pushing me back onto the bed on my knees, push my hands out in front of me and spread my legs, my ass in the air and proceed to fuck me, fast and hard, your hand spanking my ass sometimes as you do.  My pussy more than ready for the hard cock after all that I've been through, juices dripping as I'm fucked fast and hard, the feeling of being taken and used flowing through me making me love it even more.  My moans loud, hardly able to breath as I hear "now" and peak at the one word pushing myself over the edge, my juices flowing out of my pussy before the cock pulls out and I then feel hot, sticky cum on my ass.  My head is then grabbed and forced to suck the cock clean before being pushed back against the bed and told to stay there. 

    Next thing I know I hear water running, a few minutes later I'm being guided from the bed and walked to another place then my ankle is taken into a hand and placed into something warm, then the other before I'm pressed softly downwards into the hot liquid, feeling the bubbles against my skin, I assume it's a bath.  I am then joined by a man, his body pressed to mine before he reaches around, removes my blindfold and kisses me tenderly.

SCPD & CITY HALL OPEN



    The Gazette would like to post a retraction for last week's article about the PD opening.  What was believed to be the opening was merely the announcement of a new PD on the rise.  Tuesday, the new PD building was officially opened to both the PD and the public when they had the Grand Opening where the Mayor and Deputy Mayor made the announcement.  It was believed that it had been opened last Sunday when the Mayor and Deputy Mayor announced the new building but apparently, it wasn't opened until this week.



    In other big news,  Destiny Tower I, the new City Hall is now open as well with the Grand Opening to take place in the near future though the date of the event hasn't been decided as of yet.  The building will be the City Hall, Courtroom, and be the home of other businesses and offices as well.  There will be offices available to rent as well as a conference room/banquet hall.  If you'd like more information about either, contact the Mayor's office or the city manager, Lynsey Werefox.






 SINNER'S HQ COMMANDEERED


Sinners Hq has been commandeered by the Mayor of Syn City to be demolished and Destiny Tower Two put in it's place.  The Mayor was kind enough to offer them the use of the Fire Department as a temporary location although some wonder why they don't just move in with Oso.  The painting on the signs posted by the Mayor's office shows that Sinners are clearly not happy with the Mayor's decision.  Despite all the Mayor's hard work,
his approval rating is dropping at a steady rapid pace.  His slogan "At any cost" becoming quite the annoyance to many.  The plan however, is to have Sinners take over the Fire Department which will provide them with a headquarters while at the same time giving Syn City an active fire department and someone to call when the fires erupt.



COUNCIL MEETING



    The council had their first official meeting at the new City Hall this past Thursday night. First on the agenda was a vote on the final version of Deputy Mayor Dolly's Economic plan. The beta program passed 4-0 by the council and will go into effect February.  Actual specifics about the program that will assist businesses will be revealed by the Deputy Mayor this coming week.  Mayor Whacked Destiny then brought the council up-to-date regarding statuses on the brand new City Hall which will contain office rentals for those who seek a safe, quiet professional environment to get some work done.  Councilor Dina expressed her concerns over the costs of these projects as the Mayor reassured her how necessary it was.  The Mayor also boasted about the newer, greener PD and recommended the handyman Mr Su for future city projects.  Former Mayor Kali joined the council meeting to discuss the new land, inconsistencies and criticisms of Safe Zones.  The discussion over Safe Zones and the new land the city has acquired will be resuming in the council meetings ahead.

Page 3: Who's Who

    Some of you love her...many of you hate her but at the end of the day, even the cops are a part of Syn City and the same is true when it comes to Deputy Police Chief Distansa who is also currently filling the role of Police Chief due to Chief Fyng's unexplained absence.  She wasn't always the one to be hated or even feared but started her young life out as many of us girls do....with hopes and dreams that one day she'd meet the Prince Charming that was meant for her and find love.  When she was 10, she had loving parents, a sister she hated but yet loved and would do anything for at the same time, lots of friends and a dog named Frodo.  She was popular in school always doing well on her school work, active on sports teams, the overall perfect student.  Everyone loved her, even the teachers.  On a night like any other though...that all changed when her family were taken hostage at a bank robbery.  All was going well and though they were stuffed in a white get-a-way van, weren't injured and it seemed they'd soon be released when there was an accident and the van crashed.  She woke to find herself covered in blood and what remained of her family...all killed except for her who in a last chance effort to save his daughter, her father had sheltered her body with his own.
    A nearby hobo pulled her from the wreckage saving her life, the memory of the look of anguish on her sister's face as she got dragged away moments before the van exploded seem to haunt her to this day.  Thankfully for her, the hobo that had pulled her from the carnage had been a doctor before losing everything to his ex wife and he tended to her wounds nursing her back to heath.  Physically, she was fine though mentally...was another story.  She became silent...not uttering a single word for 5 years.  She had no one and no one knew she existed...for all they knew she had been destroyed in the fire.  The hobo taught her the ways of the streets, valuable lessons in life that she'd never have had the opportunity to learn in her perfect life such as "when a gang comes around not to piss them off or when a bigger stronger person than yourself wants something, they will get it."  It was a hard life, nothing came easy and everyone hated you but in time, she adjusted and was doing well...for a hobo until a Mayor came to town pinning crimes on them they didn't commit forcing them into hiding moving from one condemned building to another.  At times, she questioned living or dying...giving up and giving in.  When she wasn't being beaten by the police, she was being beaten by the gangs to keep her mouth shut literally fighting other kids for a piece of bread found in the trash.  The relationship between her hobo savior grew to that of a father figure.  He loved her as his own daughter and her new way of life became "normal" until the Chinese Mafia came into town torturing and killing seemingly for the fun of it forcing her to watch her "father" tortured and killed before pulling her into their ranks.
    Over time, she worked her way up through the ranks going from doing the dirty jobs no one else wanted to do to becoming a feared torturer naming her Distansa, an old Chinese name for a creature from hell because of what she was able to conjure up to do to her victims.  Her name was known and feared even by those in the Mafia in which she ran.  The leader's son started t become jealous of her and tried to get her into trouble forcing her to dispose of him the best way she could.  For fear of a war...her against the mighty Chinese Mafia...she fled and found her way to Syn City where she first joined Oso stating "my rebellious side took over and I did not agree with things within them. They were more of being under the radar when I just wanted to make people fear us. I left them and joined the Sinners." becoming one of the things she assumes most everyone in Syn City is...a criminal.  She did manage to find friends though and it was with a friend named Amelia that she left Sinners and started their own gang...the Death Dolls who at one point was even allied with the Vipers.  After the alliance ended, there was constant fighting and anarchy rose up within the Death Dolls and the gang was soon dissolved while Distansa kept the money while others fled town.  She left for about 6 months but when she returned, she was a new person and had a rep in the City even without being in a gang.  She wasn't bothered though she was offered a place within several gangs turning them all down instead joining the police force as Lieutenant.
    She is now the Distansa, we all know having worked her way up from Lieutenant to Deputy Chief and acting Chief doing what she can to make Syn City a better place where one can enjoy and ice cream cone in peace at the park.  She denies all allegations of corruption within the SCPD and looks at all cases the same unless one involves an officer being shot down.  When that happens...."I will do every thing I can to make the offender's life hell.  We will not stand for cruelty against the officers of this city!"  She hopes that while Chief, the crime numbers drop and conditions within the city improve.  She has no intentions to ever marry or have kids.  She did however, have a message for Synizens "you better watch out, you better not cry, you better not run I am telling you why, SCPD is come for you SCPD is comming for you so dont go doing annnnnnyyyyyy crimmmmmeeeeee."  You heard it all right here folks...from abandoned child to criminal to Deputy Police Chief....Distansa doesn't give up and doesn't give in.

❖ Rumor Has It
**Have you heard a rumour you want to share?  Send it to us.**

1.  The Mayor has been heard saying Sinners HQ is an eye sore and wants to tear it down to make room for his new Destiny tower II (but also a bigger walk in closet for his wife) - If rumours are true, the always snoozing sinners will have a new HQ at the old Fire station, it be a good way to fill up the FD with some people that could actually run that place too.  Considering the fact that all the red flags have been removed except the ones at Sinners...it is a HUGE possibility the rumours are true.

2.  The City doesn't have the funds to defend themselves in a court room.  There is a judge or two but very few lawyers.  In Syn City at the moment...the cops are the law.


3.  Injuries no matter how big or small will never keep someone in Syn from drawing their weapons...even if in a wheelchair as proven by two Synizens in this photo.

4.  Dia has left Tann due to having a HUGE crush on one of Syn City's officers of the law, Mofo who can't wait to put his penis in her vajajay.

5.  Crissy from the Vipers is pregnant with triplets...quite obvious considering how fat and round she's gotten as of late.

6.  Dia lasso'd herself a naked Alister and after getting her rope around him wasn't finished, taking him for a ride.  Bet he enjoyed that!  Was it cowgirl or reversed cowgirl...that's my question.  When asked, she stated "i dont cap and tell haha"....I take that to mean things got kinkier then a quick ride.

7.  Wanted has called out Death multiple times for a 1v1 but each time something happens to keep it from happening.  Will Death give Wanted the 1v1 he wants or will he continue to deny him?  Is Death afraid or does he just want to have the right situation for it so bets can be placed?  The battle finally took place...one preferring to shoot, the other preferring to melee....after several hours...might have been a half hour but seemed like several hours...Death defeated Wanted in their fight.

8.  Hyst wants to be raped and doesn't care if it's by a male or female, she was heard saying ""Rape meee".  In considering the articles she writes for the paper, are you surprised she wants to be "taken"?

9.  Dia, Tann, Kombo, and Pettori had a foursome but Tann got jealous and broke up with Dia so now Dia, Kombo, and Pettori have threesomes instead.  We're unsure at this time who Tann is fucking now but we have been told he is out of town fucking someone.

10.  Fredo had Wolf dance on the pole for him and Wanted, to watch him do some spanking while Sinnoso were inside Viper's HQ apparently he has a thing for wolf.  According to our source...someone is bi curious.  Is someone also anti-bi?  Is it really so wrong for a man to enjoy watching another man dance?  We say NO...be yourself...accept who you are and if you want to smack a man's ass with your dick...go for it!

Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps
Written by: Hyst

Perhaps my curious reactions are not born of fear but of a meticulous caution?
Perhaps my deliberations are cut precisely from a cloth woven with extreme care?

When i tremble before You, my Prince, it could be the strain of my uncertainty that is
caught up in the study of Your stance.

In my constant judiciousness, i may seem hopelessly craven. The truth, my Love,
is without doubt, the effectiveness of Your wise guidance.

For as my day begins so does my zealous search for ways in which to please You
and as my day ends, i spend time in conscientious contemplation, reviewing my actions
in search of ways in which to improve my success rate.

my Dearest One, my fears take many forms and wear prodigious disguises that
may confuse and conflict.

Perhaps those curious fears You see in me are not so delicate of flaws
but, in truth, a clever concealment of my deep reverence and awe.

Dear Editor,

I am writing you for a couple of reasons that I feel you, as an unbiased newspaper, should be aware of. First, the PD was not re-opened the day of the press conference announcing the 'new' PD building due to the fact that the building had much work still left to be done on it. If you had stayed long enough you would have known this, or at the very least did some follow up to ensure your facts were correct before print. Which brings me to the second reason I am writing you. The article in regards to the H4L building being shut down was extremely one sided and filled with misinformation. As a news agency I am shocked and disappointed at the Gazette's failure to bring an unbiased and informed article to print. An SCPD officer was not the only one compelled to close the building and the counselor mentioned in the deputy mayor's statement was never approached for her side or to even ensure she had anything to do with the building's closing.

I hope that in the future your newspaper will be more interested in getting the whole story rather than coming across, as you did in Issue 19, as a glorified tabloid. I hope to see follow up articles on these issues in your next edition as I do usually enjoy reading your newspaper. Or, at the very least, a disclaimer on the paper that the Syn City Gazette promotes only one sided news reporting.

Sincerely,
dina Ormidale
Syn City Counselor and SCB CEO

THE 3 HOUR WAR



    Friday night a fight between Sinnoso and the Vipers broke out.  It is unknown what started the fight though it is known that it was quite the long one, lasting just at three hours from start to finish.  Vipers made their way to HQ using it's defenses to the point where Sinnoso backed off unwilling to fight against the building's strong defenses but the fight wasn't over, there wasn't to be another stalemate.  While Sinnoso stood near the Sinner Motel, Vipers came back out slowly pushing Sinnoso to the other side of the City from the water tower area, to the bridge, to the park and right into Oso's HQ.  The fight was long and strenuous but in the end Vipers pulled it off and won the battle.  This fight isn't the beginning nor the end of the Sinnoso war against the Vipers.



 SCPD & H4L TEMPORARILY CLOSED



    On Wednesday, two buildings in Syn City were shut down when Craig from the SCPD made accusations that H4L was spreading diseases and needed to be shut down.  Seeing as Distansia and Dina had both been in H4L, the PD was shut down as well until both could be proven to be clear of any health hazards.  H4L has been in contact with the Mayor's office in an attempt to reopen since they have files on the girls saying they are clean from the Hospital Administrator himself.  Deputy Mayor Dolly gave a speech Saturday morning despite the fact it was the weekend stating her displeasure with the situation.  By Saturday afternoon, the yellow tape and signs had been removed from H4L.  Hoes 4 Less has been reopened and was and is...disease free.  PD however, has been demolished and a new one is already in the development stages.

"As Deputy Mayor of this fine city mah main course of action is to improve this city's economy and get the various businesses of Syn going. We can't accomplish this by shutting down fine establishments that be creating employment opportunities. The building behind me is a modeling agency that helped women who were down on their luck, who didn't think they were beautiful. The truth is everyone is beautiful in their own way, Hoes 4 Less shows them how to reveal the beauty that lies underneath and how
they put it to good use while not only pleasing themselves, but others as well. Now
what is wrong with that? huh?"



   "Ya got them critics say diseases are being spread, what proof do they have? Hoes 4
    Less is a good honest established business and the doctors can confirm that they are
    not the diseased STD everyone fears of catching, but the good type, the Sexually
    Talented Diva type. Now these STDs spread themselves all across infecting all they run
    into with something they won't forget. They do not cause violence or mean any harm, but
    unfortunately they get harm their way. Not only from ganger bangers but now from the
    city itself. As Deputy Mayor ah am ashamed this has happened, the former prostitute in
    me will continue to fight, being the voice of all sluts through out Syn. Together we shall
    get through these dark times and ah guarantee y'all Hoes 4 Less is gonna reopen one
    way another soon enough as this wasn't the doing of the Mayor's office, but the doing of
    one council member with SCPD connections who abused her authority to tyrannical
    levels."

   "This councilor's daughter is now a big girl meaning two things, she don't cry and that she can make her own decisions. Mah sister Molly told me many stories about what be happening at Hoes 4 Less after ah became Deputy Mayor, she can describe things in such detail that it be like ah was really there... which ah wasn't of course like the day this councillor came to Hoes 4 Less spraying her mouth about shutting it down in 24 hours if we don't.. ah means they won't fire her daughter. The daughter never felt more humiliated in her life as she was an adult who didn't need her mommy telling her bosses what to do. The mother couldn't be talked any sense into. She didn't stop there as days later what'cha know, Hoes 4 Less got shut down without any proof of wrong doing. People of Syn, let Mayor Whacked and ah ensure y'all that we take corruption very very seriously and we will discipline this councilor."

    "Oh ah would like to tell everyone that the new City Hall project although had some
    delays is going to be completed going over budget. Its no biggie really, we will increase
    SCPD monthly budget targets to cover. The City Hall is the first of many new things to be
    coming from the council this year. This past week the economic committee has finished
    their plan on getting businesses rolling. For the first time every, both gang and
    independently owned businesses will have support from the city. If approved by the
    council at the upcoming meeting, this plan will go into beta come February. This wraps up
    mah important press conference, thank y'all for ya time."

    It seems the Mayor is doing what he believed was best for the citizens of Syn City but could the accusations made by the Deputy Mayor about one of the councilors be true?  Did they use their position with the council to cause such dramatics because of a rebellious daughter?  There is no way to know just yet but from the looks of things, it seems some council members may be under close watch in the future.



SCPD REBUILT



    Sunday the Mayor and Deputy Mayor called a press conference to announce the opening of the new SCPD building.  The new SCPD building is anything but a work of art due to the new city hall going over budget but looks as if it's more of a dilapidated old building.  The building was constructed by one of Syn's newest citizens who is known for his wonderful use of recycled material, Su.  It's made from the old courthouse's rubble and boards were used for the windows instead of glass to keep the PD warmer in the winter and to block the sunlight in the summer.  The building is not only ecological but it also saved the tax payers a lot of money which the Mayor and Deputy Mayor are hoping will be kept in mind when it comes time for re-elections.
    Needless to say not all citizens were as thrilled as the Vipers were about the looking as if it needs to be condemned building, one of which was Chief Distansia who was quite vocal with her displeasure stating "why not just put us in card board boxes!! we will be safer in there! or even better yet build us a NEW building like city hall you stingy fat asses!" among other things.  Seeing as the old PD had been demolished due to it being infested with "crotch crickets and mofo juice" according to the Mayor, the rebuilding of the PD was critical.  It wasn't in the City's budget and they did what they could with what budget they had.
    Things took a different route when the police were accused of not doing their jobs and decided they'd do a bit of crowd control threatening the crowd with gas and weapons despite the fact there were two pregnant citizens in the crowd.  The crowd was told to disperse and the press release was called to and end as PD put on their masks and talked of drawing weapons and arresting some of the citizens.  Thankfully, the crowd dispersed and to our knowledge, no arrests were made.  Needless to say...apparently PD isn't too happy with the Mayor's office at the moment.  We transcribed as much as we were able to get for our wonderful readers....((Please see the comments to this post for the transcription.))

SYN CITY GAZETTE ONLINE

     Syn City's favorite newspaper, Syn City Gazette is now available online for those who have subscriptions at http://syncitygazette.blogspot.com. There's still more work to be done so things are not final yet but we didn't want to hold back any longer seeing as there's some that's been wanting us to be online since we started. Any questions, concerns, or ideas...contact us. We want to hear it!


SYNFUL PLEASURES


    Synful Pleasures hosts events every Saturday from 7 - 9 pm SLT and Sundays from 12 - 2 pm SLT.  Saturday was Goofy Greats with silly music and outfits alike.  It's unfortunate more didn't dress then did as it could have been even more fun then it was but even still all had a good time and was blowing up the trivia while DJ Amber played the tunes.  The winners of the contest were Amber, Fi, and Wolf.


    Sunday, we were taken back in time once more to the 80's.  Everyone was still tired from staying up so late the previous night that they were too lazy to dress but still, everyone enjoyed the tunes as DJ Amber brought us back once more.  The winners of the contest were Dina, Craig, and Amber.



***********************************************************************************
Page 3: Who's Who
***********************************************************************************



    Many remember her from her owning the a VERY successful local coffee shop known as Lenabelles...this week's Who's Who...Annabelle from DA.  She came to Syn City about a year ago with one of her brothers, Chief who was known for getting in trouble while she worked hard to make them a living and a home at the early age of 20.  When she first came to Syn, she took on a job working at Viper's garage though it was short lived seeing as she couldn't accept getting oil on her nails and such.  While her brother was out making enemies with Sinners and learning to use guns to defend himself, she was making friends.  One of which was her best friend, Selena who to this day is still her best friend here.  Not liking the jobs the City had to offer, they started their own business.  One which used Selena's cooking skills and her creativity known as Lenabelle's.  People still remember it and talk about it to this day, it was located next to Hoes 4 Less.
    If there's anything Annabelle values, it's friendship and she has been known to give friends a place to stay, provide jobs, plan weddings, help with council campaigns, and even assist in others' business endeavors without expecting anything in return.  When asked what drives her to help others so much, she stated "Umm.. I guess I have always been a caring person. I have the values that you treat others as you wish to be treated. Its a bit difficult to be like that in this sort of city but I don't know. Its something my parents brought me up to be like and Its stayed with me. "  Syn City could definitely use more people with this type of thinking.
    Lennabelle's was a place where memories were made, a gathering place for many in the city with fond memories for not only just the owners but Synizens as well.  Annabelle and Selena's goal when creating the business was to have a place to hang out and enjoy coffee with some delicious cake but they offered more then just great coffee and food, they also offered a job and a fun place for the citizens to gather.  It was a special gathering place for many, most of them are still with us today from Alister, Selena, DD, Samantha and Serena.  They had great employee's who put hours upon hours making the shop so successful but unfortunately, the profits were little and they became the target for fires and were constantly havign to repair windows.  When asked if she'd do anything differently... "probably better security and more help with loans to keep it open longer hours."  Lennabelle's became an example of how to run a successful independantly owned business in Syn City.  Annabelle is currently contemplating future business ventures and researching the current businesses in Syn and looking into ways to make it work with limited time and funding.  She did have some advice for Synizens though, and good advice it was "just remember that spark you had when you first thought up the idea. The excitement you had when you bought the place and put up the sign. Selena and I had so much fun.. but if you lose that spark and excitement the business will suffer to because your motivation to run it will disappear. My advice would be to accept help when its offered and try to not take on too much yourself."  If your heart isn't in what you do, how can you do it well?
    Now she's a member of DA and enjoying the differences in being in a gang offers having never joined one before.  She doesn't regret her decision at all stating "they really are a family and I love them. They bring out my .... fiesty side! Its nice to get protection too and have others to fight for."  From being a leader in successful businesses to a loyal gang member, one thing has always remained a constant...what matters most is those you surround yourself with, friends and family and despite the harshness of Syn City, Annabelle continues to do just that.

❖ Rumor Has It
**Have you heard a rumour you want to share?  Send it to us.**

1. Amy of the Sinners submitted to Death from the Vipers Friday night after Death showed how great his fighting skills were in the 3-hour war.  Apparently whatever happened after brought out the submissive side in Amy.  Ask her, she will tell you that her new name is Death's Toy.

2.  Amber is pregnant with twins and Damen of the Sinners says they're his!  Perhaps this is why Edward and Amber were so quick to wed without the Vipers having knowledge of it!  She was trying to hide what she'd done!  Seems innocent Amber isn't so innocent at all hooking up with Damen, getting pregnant, sneaking off marrying another....tisk tisk.



3.  It seems Zeke from the Sinners is so afraid of Nick's hammer, that he refused a 1v1 that lead to a full out gang war.  Nick lost a lot of blood and is currently recooperating under the care of Blondie who has left DA to be at his side in Vipers.

4.  According to some, Petal Pettori, deserves to be shot because she stands alone in this city rather then join one of the local groups stating "if you do not know your place in a gang, your place should be on the ground".  Agree or disagree?  THAT is the question...*snickers*

5.  Bruce, in a moment of male stupidity broke up with Care and is hoping to win her back by baking a cake but when he attempted to acquire sugar from Oso, it lead to a fight and at the end of it, forgot the damn sugar!

6.  We've all heard of keeping it in the family, that's no different where Vipers Cosmo and Mike are concerned.  Cosmo recently moved in with Mike and are now sharing a space and he's adopted Gussy.  Apparently, Mo's not getting out of prison anytime soon, he was sentenced to 25 to life with no chances of parole and has approved the relationship due to the circumstances stating "I'd rather it be him...then an non-Viper."

7.  Dina Ormidale, CEO of Syn City Bank intends to hire an investigating team to conduct a full investigation into the new City Hall.  What is she investigating?  Considering she's the CEO of the bank, she already knows the budget of the city and how much was spent.  Is she the corrupt Council member that the Deputy Mayor was referring to?  Is this part of her plan of corruption or is there more to it that no one's heard about yet?

❖ Dating Scene Forecast


Lovers welcome to 2014. A new year brings 365 new days to love, fuck and sleep in the arms of our lovers. For thy past few months, I, LOVENOMINOUS, the GUARDIAN OF LOVE have guided the hearts of Syn through the sea of love. What shall thy lovely waters bring us in 2014? I, LOVENOMINOUS, the GUARDIAN OF LOVE never assumes for without a doubt you are wondering how the waves forming in the sea of love will affect your relationship for the month of January. This forecast is difficult for me share as I, LOVENOMINOUS, the GUARDIAN OF LOVE absolutely hate being 100% accurate and right all the fucken time when the stars are clearly telling me there are some very turbulent waters ahead.

The question is what course your boat is set on? Is your course set to become popular among others by showboating close to the shore? If so then your relationship is as shallow as the water near the shore and shall capsize in epic failure. Is someone GUIDING the ship or is the captain too busy fucking in the bedroom? If lust TAKES OVER love, imbalance of sex GREATER then social couple activities, then don't be surprised when it SUDDENLY fails in TITANIC proportions. Is your love lost at sea? If so do not seek help from professional counselors. These pirates exist to steal from mateys whose hearts are lost.  Instead seek help from a shared friend who cares about all parties, let them be the tug boat that guides your boat of love through any troubles. Only TRUE LOVE WILL STAY ON COURSE to be tested across the DEEPEST, bluest and most treacherous waters found over sea of love. When rocky waters leave a lover HOLDING ON for dear life, are you BRAVE enough to RISK your own life to SAVE YOUR LOVE life? What about unexpected problems? Ignoring a leak shall become a BIGGER problem that is HARDER to solve when it drowns your love 1000 fathoms DEEPER into Davey Jones Locker within the whirlpool of depression.

Some say communication is key but I, LOVENOMINOUS THE GUARDIAN OF LOVE say communication is FUCKEN MAGIC. It turns problems into SOLUTIONS, assumptions into JOKES, insecurities into INVULNERABILITIES and has the side effect of REASSURING the love towards your partner is present. Why do we CHOOSE to play games creating tsunami waves that drift us FARTHER APART in a sea of love? Why we RISK LETTING GO ignoring someone loyal whose sole purpose is to make you FEEL like the King or Queen of the world? When we can instead, use this MAGIC OF COMMUNICATION to create beautiful calm waves of equality for our hearts shall go on.

I, LOVENOMINOUS THE GUARDIAN OF LOVE do not wish ill towards those who don't LISTEN to my 100% ACCURATE ADVICE and hope the stranded FIND my island of love. For I am spending most of my time trying to CARVE a fine piece of ass out of FUCKEN COCONUTS. My homeboy Wilson keeps me company, that FUCKEN VOYEUR acts like he is FULL of air but rolls up when I'm PLUMMETING BOOTIES of stranded hotties who wash up ashore. Stranded guys lets LEAD these hotties into GANG BANGS until they tire our cocks out. Then we drink some ICE COLD Coronas and WATCH THEM ENJOY each others SWEET CREAM PIES. IT IS FACT cum TASTES SWEETER from a man after having coconuts HI-YO!!! Go fuck Mary Ann cause Ginger is MY COLLARED BITCH HI-YOOO!!!

Communication is FUCKEN MAGIC.

Play Me
Written by: Hyst


Take me out of the case and tune me gently. As You work each of my strings, stop from time to time and run a loving hand over my finely crafted body.

With each tiny adjustment, close Your eyes and listen closely to my off key sound, then ever so gently tune me toward Your satisfaction.

I beg of You to use only the softest of cloth as You polish me to mirror Your reflection. Set me carefully aside on a velvet cushion as You compose a passionate melody just for me.

Play me, my dearest One, like a lover touching His most cherished prize for the first time. Run Your strong hands over the curves of my body and watch as it warms to Your song.

I am a most giving and loyal instrument who sings for only You. If You hear a discordant note once in awhile, tune me gently to the place where i was pretty for You. When my body is smeared with imperfection, polish me again to shine for You.

I long to play the symphonies You compose for i am Your instrument of submission. i was crafted to serve You never to be put back in my case.
