Quote Of The Day:"Good afternoon. Most of you have no idea who I am. My name is Nathan Petrelli and I was elected to Congress in the state of New York. Seems like a long time ago. I lost my position, I lost my brother, I lost my family. I'm sad to say that I lost my way. But while I was gone I've had the chance to see the world through newly humbled eyes, witnessed amazing things, seen ordinary people among us trying their best each day to be heroes. These ordinary people, like you, like me, are capable of extraordinary things. You have no idea how extraordinary. But there are other people; organizations who don't want you to know the truth. I myself kept secrets. But last year, something incredible happened to me, and it changed my life. At first, I was afraid, but I'm not afraid anymore. I'm here to tell you the truth."

- Nathan

Although Angela dismisses the rumor in Dual, further on Sylar is made to believe he is Nathan. Once again, Angela eventually tells them the truth.

A Review of the first #Heroes100Saturday

(by Peter Llewellyn campaign organiser)

First of all I'd like a big thank you to all of you who took part in #Heroes100Saturday, you guys were amazing once again you made Heroes a trending topic.
So how did we do? -you might be wondering
Well we had some high points and some low points of the first #Heroes100 campaign.
The high points were;

We got #Heroes100 to trend worldwide...
http://twitpic.com/178ia0
We got #Heroes Trending High in the USA....
http://twitpic.com/178ix5
We got #Heroes 100 Trending Very high in certain cities....
http://twitpic.com/178k9o
We got Greg Grunberg, Dawn Olivieri, Wendy Linn & Oliver Grigsby all to RT #Heroes100 for us.
We've got a great Blog & several Heroes100 accounts ready to be utilised for the next campaign.

The low points were;

Not enough people supported us, there were 12 Heroes100 accounts that didn't tweet at all, very disappointing if those guys had of jailed those accounts we could have been higher up the list & stayed trending for longer.
Over 850 people tweeted on the SaveHeroes campaign, #Heroes100 managed only 196 but YOU guys got nearly as much % than we did for SaveHeroes so you should be rightly proud of yourselves.
If more of the people who follow us had ReTweeted #Heroes100 then we would have gotten higher up the list & stayed on it perhaps until Sunday.

Over all we did well, those of you that took part were well & truly magnificent, and that encourages me to carry on & do more campaigns.
Please Keep your Heroes100 accounts active, just check for spambots each week & add proper followers the next campaign will be announced in due course.
Thank you all.

Did You Know?

Quote Of The Day: We dream of hope,we dream of change,of fire,of love,of death,and then it happens,the dream becomes real. And the answer to the quest,this need to solve life's mysteries finally shows itself,like the glowing light of the new dawn. So much struggle, for meaning, for purpose, but in the end we find it only in each other. Our shared experiences of the fantastic, and the mundane. The simple, human need to find the kindred, to connect, and to know in our hearts that we are not alone.

Mohinder Suresh (How To Stop An Exploding Man,Voice over)

Did You Know?:The climax of this episode has a lot in common with a crucial scene from the 1976 film Marathon Man. Both were filmed in the same location in Los Angeles (called "Kirby Plaza" inHeroes), although both scenes are supposed to take place in New York City. In both, a principal character who operates under an assumed name is stabbed. In Heroes, he is called Sylar; in Marathon Man he is Scylla. In both cases, the stabbing victim is left for dead, but manages to leave the scene.

Heroes100:Tweeter Of The Day

Thank you @OSHWANZ / @Heroes100UK for ReTweeting & Hashtagging our campaign, please tell us a bit about yourself;

Q. Why do you love Heroes?
A.Because Television in the UK is always the same rubbish so when this show came about it was like a breath of fresh air for UK TV .Most of the characters are easy to relate to and the whole concept of discovering abilities for the first time is somewhat intriguing.

Q. Who is your favorite character?
A.There are 2 characters i'm always torn between, both of which are no longer in the show and funnily enough, they're both English, Daniel Linderman and Claude Rains! (And not just because of the accents)

Q. If you could have any 1 power except the power 2 have all the other powers what would it be?
A.Gravitational Manipulation (Black Holes) without a doubt. There are always people in this world we dont like or they make things difficult, i'd like to be able to eliminate the problem at the root, so they can't come back in 6 months time!!

Q. What are your plans for #Heroes100Saturday?
A.The sad news is i won't be at my computer the entire day on #Heroes100Saturday, i have a birthday in the family, however, Friday night i will be completely committed to gearing everybody up and also doing as much as i can for the #Heroes100 campaign and Also Re-Tweeting as much as i can in the few hours that i have saturday afternoon and early saturday morning!! I just hope it's enough!

Heroes100:Tweeter Of The Day

Thank you @jterzieff for ReTweeting & Hashtagging our campaign, please tell us a bit about yourself;
Q. Why do you love Heroes?

A.I love the show because it asks difficult questions of each character on the kind of person they want to be; forces them to make the choices that define an individual. It's interesting to watch them struggle to remain true to themselves.

Q. Who is your favorite character?
A.Noah Bennett because he is the epitome of the "grey man" and is aware of it. He knows what he is doing, the sacrfices he's making -- he's a good man pushed into bad situations. Flawed but loving. (Though I really love Peter and Sylar too!!)

Q. If you could have any 1 power except the power 2 have all the other powers what would it be?
A.I would want to be an empath. Something along the lines of Parkman's mind reading capabilties.

Q. What are your plans for #Heroes100Saturday?
A.Tweet my fingers off and send a message to NBC that we LOVE the show!!!

Quote Of The Day:"You've got the power to stop me, what are you waitin' for?"
"I'm trying!"
"And when you've left New York a smoking wasteland, we'll put that on your tombstone: 'Here lies Peter Petrelli. He tried.'"
"Dig into that file cabinet of yours and pull something out. Fly.Stop Time. Paint me a pretty picture. Do—something—unexpected!" -Claude Rains,Peter Petrelli (Unexpected)

Did You Know?:A photograph on NBC's Heroes Site shows a birth announcement for a "Paul E. Sylar", dated June 11, 1962. The announcement appears to be pinned next to the map in Chandra Suresh's Brooklyn apartment. However, the casting of 29 year-old Zachary Quinto seems contrary to this information, as does the revelation that "Sylar" is an assumed name. In all likelihood, since the announcement only ever appeared clearly in promotional photos, the character concept has changed since the original announcement was designed and there is no "Paul E. Sylar." This is a remnant from the original cut of the pilot episode (In His Own Image). In that version, the conversation on the Sylar tape can be heard, but it is a conversation between Chandra and Paul E. Sylar. Katherine Pope, an NBC drama development executive at the time, read the original pilot involving the early appearance of Sylar and pushed Kring to put off the character's reveal until nine episodes into the first season
