I don't know where I am supposed to post this so I'm posting it here. Here are some quotes about and by Sirius I found on the net. They can be read by clicking on the Sirius Smiley that follows: :SBFC:

Here is my favourite of the lot:

"Going to kill me, Harry?" he whispered.

Are you curious as to how many other (obsessed) Sirius fans there are on the net (outside os SS)? Then join a fanlisting!

Here are a few to choose from (or join them all!):

Immeritus > The Sirius Black Fan Club Site
*note* This site was the recipient of JKR's first ever Fan Site Award!

Reckless Hero

Passing Moments - Sirius Black FanFiction Fanlisting
*note* while some of the members may author fanfictions that are not permitted on SS, the actual FF's are not on this site.

Original Pranksters - Marauder's Fanlisting

Note to the mods: I have done my absolute best investigations to ensure that these sites are in concurrence with SS rules. I apologize if I have overlooked anything at all.

Okay! I found this the other day and I have been laughing ever since, well sorta. There seems to be several Petitions out there that have been created by people/fans in support of their favorite actor playing the role of Sirius Black.....this is my favorite.

Johnny Depp

Inseperable: The Sirius Black/James Potter Fanlisting > A fanlisting dedicated to their wonderful friendship.

Padfoot....Snuffles > A website only about our favourite.

Note: I'll just say the same as Amber two posts above - I tried to ensure that all content is SS friendly, so please bear with me if I have overlooked something.

I found this interesting, maybe its because im an astronomy dork, but itkind of fite our Sirius....


SIRIUS (Alpha Canis Majoris). From Orion, look south and to the east to find brilliant Sirius, as if one really needs directions to find the brightest star in the sky. Its name comes from the Greek word for "searing" or "scorching," certainly appropriate for a star that shines at the bright end of the "minus-first" (-1.47) magnitude. Sirius is the luminary of the constellation Canis Major, the Greater Dog, which represents Orion's larger hunting dog, and as such is commonly referred to as the "Dog Star." So great is its prominence that it has two "announcer stars" that from the mid- northern hemisphere rise before it, Procyon and Mirzam. Famed from times long past, the first glimpse of Sirius in dawn announced the rising of the Nile in ancient Egypt. (It no longer does because of precession, the 26,000-year wobble of the Earth's axis.) Sirius is also part of a large asterism, the Winter Triangle, the other two stars of which are Betelgeuse in Orion and Procyon in the smaller dog, Canis Minor. Because of its brilliance, Sirius is the champion of all twinklers, the effect caused by variable refraction in the Earth's atmosphere. The star, a white class A (A1) hydrogen-fusing dwarf with a temperature of 9880 Kelvin, is bright in part because it is indeed rather luminous, 26 times more so than the Sun, but mostly because it is nearby, a mere 8.6 light years away, just double that of the closest star to the Earth (Alpha Centauri) and the fifth closest star system. Sirius is "metal rich," its iron content triple that of the Sun, most likely from some sort of elemental diffusion. With a radius of 1.75 solar (in agreement with the measured angular diameter) and a minimum equatorial rotation speed of 16 kilometers per second, Sirius rotates in under 5.5 days. The star's greatest claim to fame may be its dim eighth magnitude (8.44) companion, Sirius B, which is visually nearly 10,000 times fainter than the bright star, Sirius A. Sirius B, however, is actually the hotter of the two, a blue-white 24,800 Kelvin. Though typically separated from each other by a few seconds of arc, Sirius B is terribly difficult to see in the glare of Sirius A. The only way the companion star can be both hot and dim is to be small, only 0.92 the size of Earth, the total luminosity (including its ultraviolet light) just 2.4 percent that of the Sun. The two orbit each other with a 50.1 year period at an average distance of 19.8 Astronomical Units, about Uranus's distance from the Sun, a large orbital eccentricity carrying them from 31.5 AU apart to 8.1 AU and back again. They were closest in 1994 and will be again in 2044, while they will be farthest apart in 2019. From the orbit (and spectroscopic data), we find that Sirius A and B have respective masses of 2.12 and 1.03 times that of the Sun. Sirius B is the chief member of a trio of classic white dwarfs, the others Procyon B and 40 Eridani B. Its high mass and tiny radius lead to an amazing average density of 1.7 metric tons per cubic centimeter, roughly a sugar cube. White dwarfs are the end products of ordinary stars like the Sun, tiny remnants that were once nuclear-fusing cores that have run out of fuel. Most are balls of carbon and oxygen whose fates are merely to cool forever. To have evolved first, Sirius B must once have been more massive and luminous than Sirius A. That its mass is now lower is proof that stars lose considerable mass as they die. Given the 250 million year age of the system, Sirius B may once have been a hot class B3 star that could have contained as much as 6 or 7 solar masses, the star losing over 80 percent of itself back into interstellar space through earlier winds. (Thanks to Steve Ash for prompting a rewrite.)

This sirius site is pretty neat (not near as neat as SS though!)

http://siriusblacks.co.uk/

Most of us like reading fanfics featuring our dear Sirius, so I thought that I'd just post some of my favourites here:

The Basement by Marz1
An AU version of PoA.

To Walk Through Fire by Brighid
Everything could have been different, if only ...

and now the biggest and best of them all ...

Promises Unbroken by Robin4
The first in the Unbroken Universe. Awesome story full of what ifs. Sirius remained the Secret Keeper.

Hope that is ok with every one


Rhea: Sounds good, but i took the french link out!.

I will now use this thread to shamelessly advertise my first Sirius Black FanFic:

Snippets of a Black Life

It's located here on SS, so don't be afraid of inappropriate content. Go on and read!

NOTE: If it's not allowed to advertise in this thread you can of course delete this.
