According to WIKIPEDIA.ORG - "The Dorque: The Dorque is a quasi-official member of the hall student government. His function is to hide the Thing somewhere on the premises of the hall and post a clue each week to its location. If the Thing is found before the end of the semester, the Dorque is obligated to provide the hall with a keg of beer. [In the 1980s the Dorque was required to provide a case of whiskey.] The Dorque is also responsible for signing the hall up for intramural sports. The Dorque for the new semester is chosen at the semester-ending banquet by the current Dorque."

Aioli Recipe
2 garlic cloves
1 large egg yolk
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
preparation
Mince and mash garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt using a large heavy knife. Whisk together yolk, lemon juice, and mustard in a bowl. Combine oils and add, a few drops at a time, to yolk mixture, whisking constantly, until all oil is incorporated and mixture is emulsified. (If mixture separates, stop adding oil and continue whisking until mixture comes together, then resume adding oil.)
Whisk in garlic paste and season with salt and pepper. If aïoli is too thick, whisk in 1 or 2 drops of water. Chill, covered, until ready to use.
Cooks' notes:
• The egg yolk in this recipe is not cooked, which may be of concern if there is a problem with salmonella in your area.
• Aïoli can be chilled up to 2 days.

Listening to The Dorques is a bit like staring into a kaleidescope. No, scratch that -- it's more like riding a shopping cart at warp speed through an empty hypermarket. It's a mess of colors and sensations, whizzing by you. It's a little disorienting, but in a good way. You just know there's a method to all this insanity, but you're too caught up to figure it out, really. You're surrounded by a veritable marketplace of audio pleasures, from all over the world. One moment it's spoken word in Nihonggo, before giving way to a manic indie rock hook. By the next song, it may be a country-tinged boogie, or dirty French pop.
The key difference is that you'd never feel alone with this bunch. Joffy Cruz is the de facto ringmaster, a sven gali, frontman, guitar hero, and rodeo clown, all wrapped up in a lanky six-foot-plus frame. His song-writing is the glue holding it all together. Arnel Fabiana radiates effortless cool, his funky bass lines providing a solid bottom end. Nina Beltran turns on the charm, tinkling away at the keyboard with reckless abandon, even as she coos in Japanese over the electronic melodies. And did I mention that she's a dead ringer for Maggie Gyllenhaal, if she were a perky chinita?
It's no wonder they've gained such a dedicated following. Of course, tireless gigging helps. So does a healthy online buzz, via websites like MySpace, Multiply, AMP by Channel [V], Odyssey Live!, and the Nokia Independent Artists Club.

i'm writing a story, it's sort of science fiction fantasy, sort of
apocalyptic, it's about an invisible planet passing through, 2010 is
when the story takes place, so i have to write the novel quickly,

invisible planet passes thru, in 2010, and the resulting catastrophic
global events to follow, but not to say that there isn't room for
miracles and enlightenment at the same time,
