David Tran's company, Huy Fong Foods Inc., is moving to a $40-million, 655,000-square-foot facility in Irwindale that could triple its production capacity. (Gina Ferazzi, Los Angeles Times / March 25, 2013)
By Frank Shyong, Los Angeles Times
April 12, 2013, 11:56 p.m.
The gig: David Tran, 68, founded hot sauce company Huy Fong Foods Inc. in Chinatown in 1980 and a few years later introduced Sriracha sauce to the U.S.
His Sriracha, a version of a hot sauce originating in Si Racha, Thailand, quickly spread through the San Gabriel Valley and eventually the nation. The fiery red concoction in the clear bottle with the distinctive green cap and rooster logo has since gone mainstream: Google "Sriracha" and you'll find such things as cookbooks, water bottles, iPhone cases and T-shirts.
Huy Fong Foods, which is still privately owned, sold more than $60 million worth of sauce last year, office manager Donna Lam said.
Refugee: When North Vietnam's communists took power in South Vietnam, Tran, a major in the South Vietnamese army, fled with his family to the U.S. After settling in Los Angeles, Tran couldn't find a job — or a hot sauce to his liking.
So he made his own by hand in a bucket, bottled it and drove it to customers in a van. He named his company Huy Fong Foods after the Taiwanese freighter that carried him out of Vietnam.
Packing heat: Early on, one of Tran's packaging suppliers told him, "Your product is too spicy. How can you sell it?" Add a tomato base, some friends counseled. Sweeten the flavor to pair it better with chicken, others said. But Tran stood firm.
"Hot sauce must be hot. If you don't like it hot, use less," he said. "We don't make mayonnaise here."
Pricing it right: Tran had just one guiding business principle: "Make a rich man's sauce at a poor man's price." In more than two decades of operation, Tran has kept the wholesale price of his sauce constant, but he would not disclose it. A 28-ounce bottle goes for about $4, depending on the retailer.
"My American dream was never to become a billionaire," Tran said. "We started this because we like fresh, spicy chili sauce."
That means cranking up the chili content of each bottle and making sure each pepper is as hot as possible, Tran said. As the company grew, Huy Fong Foods developed a relationship with a supplier in Ventura County and carefully monitored the entire growing process from seed to harvest.
Now, each chili is processed within a day of harvesting to ensure peak spiciness.
Production strained: In 2007, the company oversold its sauces and ran out of the peppers with three months left in the year. Stores marked up their prices and many started to hoard the sauce, Lam said.
Under immense pressure from customers, Tran considered his possibilities. He could buy supermarket jalapenos, but that left no way to predict the heat of the sauce. Brined peppers were also out of the question — who knew how those had been grown?
So, Huy Fong Foods went to each of its customers and asked them to wait — and they did. "We didn't lose any customers," Lam said.
Now the company sets a monthly production quota for each sauce. Every bottle of sauce produced already has been sold, Lam said.
Competition: The popularity of Huy Fong Foods' Sriracha sauce has spurred many copycats and competitors. Because the sauce is named for the Thai city, the company cannot trademark the name.
Roland Foods in New York makes its own variety, Sriracha Chili Sauce, in a similarly shaped yellow-capped bottle featuring two dragons instead of a rooster. Frito-Lay is testing a Sriracha-flavored potato chip, and Subway is experimenting with a creamy Sriracha sauce for sandwiches.
But Tran said he's not bothered by the fact that others are trying to capitalize on the market his sauce created.
"We just do our own thing and try to keep the price low," Tran said.
Revenue grows about 20% a year even with all the competition. Huy Fong Foods has never spent a dollar on advertising.
Family business: Tran has no interest in branching out beyond making Sriracha and two other hot sauces, Chili Garlic and Sambal Oelek. All the Sriracha-branded products online are made by others. He spends hours Googling "Sriracha" and chuckling over fans' creations.
He's turned down multiple lucrative offers to sell his company, fearing his vision would be compromised.
"This company, she is like a loved one to me, like family. Why would I share my loved one with someone else?" Tran said.
He intends to keep it a family business: His son is the president, and his daughter is vice president.
He has repeatedly rejected pleas to sell stock in the company and turned down financiers who offer him money to increase production significantly.
"If our product is still welcomed by the customer, then we will keep growing," Tran said.
New quarters: Huy Fong Foods has operated out of two buildings in Rosemead since the late 1980s, but it's moving to a $40-million, 655,000-square-foot factory and headquarters in Irwindale that could triple its production capacity. The company expects to complete the transition by June.
"Who knows where the company will go? We just always try to make the best sauce possible," Tran said.
Getting personal: Tran and his wife, Ada, live in Arcadia. They have two children.

Our sister publication, NAILS Magazine, is launching a reality TV-inspired nail art contest looking for the NAILS Next Top Nail Artist, and you could be it!
Aside from uploading three to 10 nail art photos of your best work in the online application, it also requires a three- to four-minute video of yourself answering the question: Why are you NAILS Next Top Nail Artist? That's where things get interesting. As part of the weekly elimination challenges that require uploading photos of your amazing nail art, some challenges may require you to upload videos or to use various aspects of social media. The great thing about this is you get to design and create in the comfort of your own home/salon without having to spend money on air travel or hotel.
The top 16 will be chosen on May 31st based on the applications. The top eight will compete in weekly elimination challenges starting on September 14th. The top two finalists will be flown in, airfare (up to $500) and two-night stay paid for by NAILS, to attend ISSE Long Beach 2014 and compete in a live finale! The winner will be announced at the beauty show and will win a $2,000 cash prize.
This is no ordinary nail art contest. Some dedication and time commitment will be necessary to complete the weekly challenges as well as working knowledge of social media and knowing your way around a camera/video camera. If you're an awesome artist but don't know much about technology, don't let this stop you! The editors and I would be more than happy to help with any video or photographing tips.
This contest is set for licensed nail techs who are not currently working as an educator for any nail companies. You do qualify if you have been an educator in the past. International nail artists can apply as well!
I hope this contest will bring forth some great artists. I also hope there will be at least a couple competitors of Vietnamese descent. Although Vietnamese nail techs make up nearly half of the nail industry in the U.S., I can only count a handful of competitors past and present (Trang Nguyen, Joseph Pham, Amy Oung, Robert Nguyen, Vu Nguyen, Trina Ngo, Christine Tran).
Complete the online application by Apr. 27. If you register by Apr. 12 you will be automatically entered into an early bird raffle.
Visit http://www.nailsmag.com/nexttopnailartist for more information and e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any questions. Or leave your questions in the comment section and I will find the answers for you.
Let me know if you're interested, the Next Top Nail Artist could be you!

Miranda Kerr wishes she was cambodian/chinese/viet/something Monica Lam
To all my avid readers who have used up countless minutes in reading what I have to say. Seriously, even after 5+ years, I still can't believe it.
thao: in the past year I started feeling the desire to be an active part of my life, instead of just watching it pass by. I wanted to try to actually be a real live person, rather than just singing songs about them.
"Cesar Cipriano About Tokyo Drift… Lin wanted Sung Kang in the lead. But execs refused to have an Asian in the lead. So that was one of MANY compromises he had to make. Bow bow's role was supposed to be Asian as well (I remember auditioning for it). Think about it, kid gets bullied, gets in trouble, and is forced to move in with his down and out father in JAPAN. Why is a down and our white guy living in the most expensive country in Asia??? Hollywood."
"Asian: I'm Asian, of course all I care about is money."

Alternative Therapies for the Treatment of Chronic Prostatitis.
Summary of "Alternative Therapies for the Treatment of Chronic Prostatitis."
Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a prevalent disease for which there is no standardized therapy. Traditional treatments have included antibiotics, α-blockers, and anti-inflammatories, but those have not proven to be efficacious therapies through many clinical trials. Alternative therapies, such as phytotherapy, acupuncture, and pelvic floor physical therapy, have grown in popularity for the treatment of CP/CPPS. As clinicians continue to explore these alternative therapies, there is an accumulation of strong evidence demonstrating the success of these alternative therapies.

Mandee - Jun 14, 2011
I've been spray tanning for 6 years at different locations, none of which really gave me the good quality airbrush tan I was looking for. I would wake up the next morning either streaky, splotchy, or barely tan at all! I went to Christyne for a spray tan this weekend, and she did the most awesome job. My tan was perfect. The shade was just right, there were NO streaks, no discoloration on my hands, nails or feet, which is something I dealt with after every other spray tan--horrible orange fingers because the technician did not take the time to do it correctly. Christyne took her time to cover every single inch evenly, and I was so pleased. Also, their location is CLEAN, you can tell they take good care of their establishment. Thank you for giving me the perfect tan that looked completely natural! Please don't ever stop spray tanning :) I will be back soon!
Look great for your wedding!
Let Sunny Days prepare your skin to be flawless in your wedding pictures.
A tan is wonderfully accentuated with a flowing white gown,
but a tan that is TOO dark can ruin any bride's day.
Choose Sunny Days Tanning to put you and your groom
on the correct path for a great tan!
What is an Air Brush Tan?
Airbrush Tanning—body airbrushing using an FDA approved ingredient, DHA, (dihydroxyacetone). It is the same ingredient in all the safe self-tanning products.
Our Air Brush Tan simply has:
A delivery system that provides an even application thereby avoiding streaking and blotching. We recommend only one session per week and in some cases we will provide a maximum of two applications in a week for certain skin types.
How Does This Work?
Very simply, the DHA (dihydroxyacetone) reacts with the amino acids (proteins) in the outermost layer of your skin. Note: Those cells are already "dead skin". It takes about six hours for the reaction to complete and look tan.
Is this safe?
The active ingredient is dihydroxyacetone and has been approved by the FDA for cosmetic applications. The balance of the spray is composed of inert carrying agents. We have not, to date, had any such reaction to our product.
How long does the Air Brush Last?
We have found that the length of tan is determined by the following factors:
The skin type - A persons skin type will react to an Air Brush Tan very much like it does to the natural sun.
The amount of "wear" - Only the outermost layer of skin is "tanned". As the skin layer is lost, so is the tan. Wear comes from rubbing, soaking in water or long showers, tight clothing, "scratchy" clothing or bleach. You wouldn't't use an SOS pad on the finish of your new car, so don't be abrasive to your skin and you will keep your tan longer. Finally, dry skin will shorten the life of your tan! So—Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!!! It depends on you. For most people 5-7 days.
How long should I allow for the treatment?
The application takes about 5—10 minutes. Always, allow 20-30 minutes whenever you come in for an appointment.
How often should I tan? Is every day all right?
We suggest once a week, but that depends on your personal tan "wear". We will not schedule tanning applications more than twice a week. Excessive applications may result in some discoloration.
What should I wear to be sprayed and will it damage my clothes?
You can wear a swim suit just as you would at the beach and our spray will wash out just fine with out damage to your suit or you may wish to avoid tan lines and just wear a bottom.

The Couch is to sitcoms, so is The Bridge to Wagon Train to the Stars type shows: a gathering place for main characters. The Captain can usually be found here, and this is the native environment of Bridge Bunnies; together they spend their time making the Cool Ship go, noting that the Readings Are Off the Scale, evading Negative Space Wedgies, manipulating the Applied Phlebotinum, and so forth. The standard bridge clich� involves The Captain sitting in the very center on a Command Chair, with two crewmembers (sometimes Bridgebunnies) in front of him steering the ship, looking at an Applied Phlebotinum viewscreen showing a whizzing star field or a map of nearby space. Other characters sit at workstations arranged in a circle around the perimeter. There's an elevator or other extremely convenient access, and any character who wants to come to The Bridge can do so easily. The Bridge will be spacious and have a large stage, usually in front of The Captain's chair, so the officers, their invited guests, and the random uninvited enemy of the week can walk around and meaningfully emote. Essentially The Bridge is part of the Space Is an Ocean model of space flight, in which the traditions of naval architecture are Recycled IN SPACE! by lazy writers. It will typically either be perched on the obvious "top" of the ship, often in some sort of conning-tower, or in the nose like the flight deck of an aircraft. The Bridge will typically cram navigation, weapons control and even strategic-level command functions into a single room, all controlled by the same handful of people. There are No Seat Belts on the bridge, so that the dramatic effect of Star Trek Shake will be maximised. See also The War Room. Not to be confused with Take It to the Bridge, or with Dropped a Bridge on Him. Of course, the reason this trope is so prevalent is because it works so well for storytelling purposes. The producers of Star Trek: Voyager tried playing around with the setup, but they realized that it's pretty much the optimal design for the kinds of stories that Star Trek tells. This has nothing to do with the game of Bridge, the cop show known in English as The Bridge, the Sirius XM Satellite Radio channel known as The Bridge, the Puzzle Platformer game The Bridge, the German movie The Bridge (Die Br�cke) (or novel of the same name), or the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Godzilla Crossover Fanfic of the same name.

Update 2014-01-05: After four awesome years at IBM, I left to experiment with self-employment and semi-retirement. =) Here are my notes preparing for the exit interview.)
Reposting this ancient internal blog post because I keep forgetting where it is and I find that it's still useful to share with people. (Two people asked me about it today!) =D
On February 13, 2006, I posted my first message to IBM's BlogCentral. I was a graduate student at the University of Toronto, and I had just started my research project with the IBM Toronto Center for Advanced Studies. Because my research project was about the enterprise applications of social media, I was thrilled to have an opportunity to explore IBM's intranet. I had read a lot about it in research papers and in articles. I was looking forward to finding out what I could do and what I could learn.

- About KHI
Oct. 25, 2013
The Health Care Foundation of Greater Kansas City has rolled out a new website designed to be a comprehensive source of health information for a six-county region in Missouri and Kansas.
The website KCHealthMatters.org has about 150 data indicators, and it allows users to analyze information down to the census tract.
"And it's more than just numbers," said Sarah Hurd, an analyst with the Kansas Health Institute, which helped develop the site. "There is a focus on action." (The institute is the parent organization of the KHI News Service.)
In a presentation Wednesday, Hurd pointed to the "promising practices" portion of the site, which includes reports from local, national, and international sources. Users can submit their own promising practices.
The site covers the Health Care Foundation service area: Cass, Jackson and Lafayette counties in Missouri, and Johnson, Wyandotte and Allen counties in Kansas.
Officials involved with development of the site said they hope it can help the social service community in applying for grants. But, they said, it's also meant to be a resource for a variety of users, including providers, government officials and the general public.
The website should prove to be a "wonderful tool" for the community, said Gretchen Kunkel, president of KC Healthy Kids, a nonprofit dedicated to reducing childhood obesity.
She said nonprofit officials are always looking for data.
→ Watch four short tutorial videos on using the most powerful features of the website.
"Data to help us tell a story of what (is) happening in the community, data that help us understand how we can apply limited resources, and data to help us create understanding and collaboration to bring those resources together so that we can realize a healthier community," she said.
The site is similar to KansasHealthMatters.org, sponsored by the Kansas Partnership for Improving Community Health, a collaboration that includes nonprofit, government and university partners.
The Health Care Foundation unveiled the site at a health forum sponsored by the foundation's Community Advisory Committee. The forum drew about 180 people, including representatives from local government and service providers.
At the forum, panelists discussed their work in the areas of healthy communities, mental health, and safety net care. Some of the points of discussion included:
Independence, Mo., Health Director Larry Jones said that for the last two years, his department has coordinated The Mile Starts Here. Every Wednesday at 9 a.m., city staff members meet with residents at various spots around the community for a one-mile walk.
They go to different parks and different trails to build familiarity with the resources, he said.
Jones said he has found that pulling officials together from various departments – none of which are directly related to health – is useful in improving community well-being.
"When we pull the health director and the parks director and the public works director and the community development director and the water department director and the tourism director into the same room," he said, "they can do a whole lot more to change the health of the community than I can ever do as the health director."
Public works, for instance, he said, can coordinate installation of streetlights and sidewalks.
Mel Fetter, chief executive of Pathways Community Health, a community mental health center serving various Missouri communities, said his organization emphasizes same-day or next-day service.
"I don't know when it became OK to tell a parent when they call looking for services for their child, that 'OK, I think you have a problem, we'll see you in six to eight weeks.' It's just not acceptable. It never has been, but somehow the mental health system got that way."
Panelists described the difficulty providing oral health services, particularly to adults. Despite an increase in awareness and emphasis on dental services, they have been underfunded, said Sheri Wood, chief executive of the Kansas City CARE Clinic.
Wood said she took a call the other day from a woman seeking help for her husband who was in a lot of pain from a chipped tooth. Wood was unable to help because her clinic cannot add patients at this time.
"The other thing we all know," she said, "is if your teeth are all crooked and dirty and falling out, your chances of getting a job are much more difficult."

Have you ever seen a sunset behind the Gulf of Mexico? This nightly spectacular is a reason in itself to visit Indian Rocks Beach, Florida. This wide, sandy beach is located on the west coast of Florida, only 30 minutes from Tampa. If you need to get away from the frigid temperatures of a northern winter, let VacationRentals.com show you just how luxurious, cozy, and full of amenities oceanfront villas in Indian Rocks Beach can be.
What to Do in Indian Rocks Beach
Fun Under the Sun
Every Indian Rocks Beach travel guide should begin with the beach itself. Located on a barrier island, facing the Gulf of Mexico, Indian Rocks Beach is home to long stretches of heavenly white sand. While some areas of the Gulf Coast have beaches full of pebbles, this isn't the case in Indian Rocks Beach (despite what the name suggests!).
Many visitors will be tempted to spend their entire trip soaking up the sun, working on their tans, and going for the casual swim. After a few days of this type of relaxation, you might want to give some other activities a try including snorkeling or heading out onto the water for a fishing excursion. This beach stretches for three miles and local residents refer to as their "little piece of heaven."
Pure Relaxation in Indian Rocks Beach
What began as a weekend getaway for wealthy residents of inland Florida has developed into a haven for sun-worshippers of all ages. Unlike other crowded beaches that are filled with music or sports games, Indian Rocks Beach is known for its serene atmosphere. Plan a trip here if you want to enjoy a relaxing stroll on the beach at sunset, followed by a delicious dinner.
The barrier island location also provides many opportunities for boating. If you have your own boat and you're looking for a rental with dock facilities, this could be the Florida destination for you. Many fishermen are attracted to this area, as well as those who like to spend a day on the boat with a gourmet picnic, doing nothing at all!
A Great Location for Exploring
Many travelers choose Indian Rocks Beach for its close proximity to other attractions. It's possible to plan a trip that includes both relaxation and a visit to Orlando or Tampa. If you're the type of traveler that likes to have many options at your fingertips, Indian Rocks Beach is a great place to choose for your oceanfront rental. Although Indian Rocks Beach is a small destination with only 4,000 residents, there is plenty to explore here as well. This is where some of the best known restaurants in the Gulf Coast are located, and the town is also home to a fantastic arts and crafts festival every November and April.
What to See in Indian Rocks Beach
Nearby Landmarks
It is rare for every family member to agree on a vacation. If this describes your family, Indian Rocks Beach is a great solution. Those who want to relax can soak up the sun, while other days can be spent at nearby landmarks. Add some adventure to your trip by visiting Busch Gardens or SeaWorld. For even more action, head to the Clearwater Municipal Marina. Here it is possible to sign up for a parasailing tour or rent a boat. If your idea of fun has a little more history involved and less adventure, be sure to check out the Indian Rocks Area Historical Society. Here you will discover the rich history of the area.
Local Wildlife
No trip to Florida would be complete without encountering some fascinating wildlife. There are two main attractions to consider including Clearwater Marine Aquarium where you can learn how to protect dolphins, sea turtles, and otters. This aquarium is dedicated to the rehabilitation of injured marine animals and might just make visitors more aware of the importance of conservation efforts.
Another great spot to see local wildlife is the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary in Indian Shores. As the largest bird hospital and sanctuary in the country, this organization is responsible for rehabilitating birds and releasing them back into nature. Entrance is free, but donations are welcome to help offset costs of running the sanctuary.
Where to Shop and Eat in Indian Rocks Beach
Shop Until You Drop in Indian Rocks Beach
Sometimes you might need a few hours away from the sun. One of the best ways to spend this time is with a little retail therapy. Indian Rocks Beach is full of stores, whether you're looking for some new beachwear, gifts for friends and family, or something uniquely Florida. Take the opportunity to bring home something memorable by exploring local shops.
Visitors that want fine wine or fine crystal can find what they're looking for in Indian Rocks Beach. Some top merchants include Crystal Connection, Bahama Bevs, and the Traveling Turtle. If you're willing to venture slightly beyond town lines into Largo or Indian Shores, there are even more options to spend a day shopping.
Award-Winning Dining in Indian Rocks Beach
One complaint travelers have about visiting Florida can be lack of creative cuisine. Any quality Indian Rocks Beach travel guide will tell you that this isn't the case at this Gulf Coast destination. Indian Rocks Beach is known for having some of the best restaurants around, so get ready to indulge in Florida cuisine with a creative flair!
Local favorites include Villa Gallace, Guppy's on the Beach, or PJ's Oyster Bar. This beach is full of family-friendly options such as JD's Restaurant and Keegan's Seafood. Whether you're looking for a night on the town or a place serving the best fish and chips in town, you'll find it in Indian Rocks Beach.
When to Visit Indian Rocks Beach
It is important for an Indian Rocks Beach travel guide to give details on the best time to visit. This beach, located just 30 minutes from Tampa on the Gulf Coast of Florida, is home to sunny weather all year long. Many travelers prefer to visit during the winter months, when cold plagues the northern states and the beaches here are still warm.
Depending on your tolerance level for heat, some visitors avoid the summer at all costs. Days can be hot and humid, which might leave you with little desire to sunbathe after the first day or two. The end of August and early September brings the height of hurricane season, so there is always a risk that your trip might be interrupted if you plan a vacation during this time. Winter and spring are usually the top choices for savvy travelers.
What to Bring to Indian Rocks Beach
An Indian Rocks Beach vacation requires only your beach basics. Many travelers love the laid-back atmosphere of this Gulf Coast destination, and the fact that not much more is needed than a bathing suit, flip flops, and some sunscreen will make packing a breeze. Casual restaurants don't demand anything too fancy in the evenings, but if you're traveling in winter, do pack along a light sweater of jacket for breezy nights. Family vacations can be enhanced by some entertainment in the vacation rental, including board games, a deck of cards, or a favorite DVD.
Local Services in Indian Rocks Beach
Local services have been in constant development since this beach first premiered in the 1920s as a getaway destination for Floridians that lived further inland. Visitors today will be able to find antiques, groceries, items for pets, ATMs, and any other modern conveniences.

What to Know About Indian Rocks Beach
While Indian Rocks Beach is a self-sustaining destination, that doesn't mean that there isn't more to explore beyond its borders. If you choose to rent a car, the entire Gulf Coast of Florida will be at your fingertips. Whether your interest is learning about endangered wildlife or hitting the theme parks with the biggest and baddest roller coasters, Indian Rocks Beach will be the perfect place to return to just in time for sunset.
Getting to Indian Rocks Beach
If you aren't driving to Indian Rocks Beach from home, most travelers arrive at the Tampa International Airport. From here it is a 30-minute drive to reach the barrier island that is home to Indian Rocks Beach. Many travelers choose to rent a car to make exploring convenient.

Great game to rent

The Story was fantastic and really what I was playing for.
The graphics were on par with what you would expect from a Tactical strategy RPG.
Some missions were very challenging though those became fewer in number the farther in the game I got.
If you want to get all the characters, I recommend using a FAQ as one or two of them are fairly obtuse to obtain.

Great story and developed characters.
Good differentiation between the different classes.
Well animated.
Fun and easy to learn battle system
Quite short.
When a character dies, they can not be revived and fade from the story.
Very Good
Not a bad game...

Graphics: The graphics of this game are terrific. Not much more can be said. The battle animations are stiff, but as a whole, the graphics are very good.
Game play: The game itself was pretty easy, but if you don't play many strategy games, then you will have a good balance of challenge to ease. Still, there was something about this game that didn't quite measure up to the other games, but I can't place my finger on it. As a whole, the game play is also good, but it took a point off my overall rating.
Length: Far too short. A measly 26 missions (which is bad for Fire Emblem game). If you can ignore this, then good for you. I couldn't, and it's the reason this game didn't get a 9 from me.
Sound: As can be expected from a Fire Emblem game, the sound is great. No complaints from me here.
Story: Also good. The story is one of the least important parts of a game to me, but the story here was worth my recognition.
Overall: The game is very good. I suggest you give it a try.
Graphics: -0
Game play: -1
Length: -1
Sound: -0
Story: -0
Ten minus two equals eight. Final score 8/10.
Rent, buy, or ignore: I say it is worth a buy, but it is short enough to complete in a rent, but the game does not deserve to be ignored.

The story this time around is full of death, betrayal, and heroism, which is pretty much the same as the two GBA games. This is made better, however, by the fully animated cutscenes which mark significant events. Unfortunately, these brilliant animations are few and far between.
The only reason this game didn't get a 10 from me is its class system. The class system in Sacred Stones, which had many different classes, each having either one or two class change options, has changed greatly to this game. Classes only have one class change option, and there are only a handful of items that let you do so. The good news is, classes change automatically at level 20.
I hope my review has helped you make a decision on whether you should rent this game. I bought it, and I am playing it for a second time through, just trying to find all of the secrets. I doubt I will unlock everything unless I play through four or five times!

But it wore off pretty fast, as soon as I discovered that there's nothing else.
Maybe I didn't play long enough, but after making it through several chapters I realized this game is essentially a story with occasional battle breaks. You can't walk around, explore, buy stuff, talk to people-- any of the things which, in my opinion, make an RPG different from other fighting games.
Good story, true. But as far as gameplay goes, it's boring and monotonous. Not what I was expecting. :(

Fellow gamers I have played a lot of Fire Emblem games in my days but this game is obviously the best. As young Ike you are faced with great challenges while going through the continent of Tellius. The graphics were nice, the storyline was strait and the final vote for me is 10 out of 10, bravisimo, exelant, 100%,and amazing.My rating on gamefly shouldve been 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

This game is VERY similar to games like Final Fantasy Tactics and Orge Tactics so if either of these pequoed your interest then this is a definite rental. Personally, I wouldn't buy it but it's fun to play none the less.

I'm sure Fire Emblem is an awesome game...but it's not for everyone, including me. Asking for my advice, I'd tell you to play Tales of Symphonia...or go bang your head into a wall a few times...either way you're getting a more exciting gaming experience than by playing FE.

1. The combat mechanics heavily favor offense. It is no unusual event to see one hit kills (from you or enemies), and it is no remarkable thing when one of your characters goes from full health to dead in a single turn. This is not necessarily bad, but...
2. When a character dies, he dies. There is no "life" spell or "phoenix down" to bring him back. This seemed like a neat idea to me at first, but really it ended up being a huge source of frustration. I frequently felt the need to reset and load even when I was winning a battle by a huge margin because a key member of my party died. I felt like I couldn't have fun playing this game because I was stressing out about losing characters. I could be in an absolutely ideal position, but then have an irreplaceable character one-hit-killed. Frustrating!
3. Add to this the fact that all battles are story battles. Put positively, there is no "level grinding" or "random battles," but in light of cons (1) and (2) you can very easily lose some characters and then spiral downward as you have no way to build yourself back up after a loss. In short, this means you can get stuck, ending up in an unwinnable situation on a save game.
1. The story was decent--somewhat cliche and run-of-the-mill but decent.
2. The world that the game is set in is fairly imaginative and interesting.
3. The combat system is simple and straightforward.
In short, everything in this game is a limited resource. Party members die, weapons and spells break, and gold and xp cannot be beefed up by grinding. The game is really more of an exercise in resource management than a fun game. Unless this sounds appealing to you, skip it.
Not as good as the next one...

as you advance through the story you gain more and more characters, with seemingly no limit to a maximum party size. This is a tactics based game that has pretty video animations with each attack that you can customize letting you choose which characters you want to see make attacks. the game took me approximately 27 hours( I say about because I fell asleep playing a couple times).
most of the characters you will encounter in battle and have to talk to with the main character to get them to join you. this game seams to emphasize the no second chances idea where if you don't get someone to join you or someone dies you never see them again. there are no random battles and you cannot repeat anything in the game its a very linear story this is counter balanced by the fact that there is plenty of experience to max half of your characters in the game. The level cap is 20 unless you can cross class one time which half of the human characters can then you get to go an addition 1 through level 20 and then you cannot level after that.
conclusion: the game has a solid system a climactic ending and interesting storyline.
Was never played.

If you've never played a Fire Emblem game, try it!! They are Amazing! All of them have great Strategy, RPG, and story-telling aspects. The games are so touching, I have actually cried when one of favorite charecters died. And in Fire Emblem, if they die, they're gone for good.
This game takes old Fire Emblem concepts and throws them into a 3-D world, using many of the old components of the other Fire Emblem games. But there are big changes, like, for instance, everything is in the third dimnesion, which changes MANY aspects of the game in a (mostly) good way. Other changes include the abandonment of Dark Magic and Elemental Magic, in place of which are now 3 different kinds of Elemental Magic, Thunder, Fire, and Wind.
The biggest pro to this game is the addition of the weapon forge. Which allows you to create custom weapons from scratch. Often making them more powerful and deadly than even the strongest of weapons.
Beware for you gamers who enjoy a quick play-through, this game is EASILY 30-40 hours of play time.
The only real criticism I have is the mediocre music. It wasn't by any means BAD, but previous fire emblem musical scores have been much more dramatic and provacative.
So, whether you've a life-long fan, (like me), or a newcomer to strategy games, you MUST try this game, rent it, or better yet, buy it and stick it on a shelf to take out whenever those "Impossible-to-lose" games get you down.

It is a fun strategy game and it has a great plot, many many skills, and about forty nine different characters available. Along with extra maps that you receive upon beating the game at it's three different difficulties, as well as a few that you can only gain by linking your gba to the gamecube with the special cable. With either titles inserted into the gba.
One thing though, if you are looking for an easy game that you'll instantly master with zero intelligence and perseverance... Don't play this game or any of the titles in this series. There, I warned you. the games animation is excellent throughout, but i was very impressed with the cut scenes and fighting animations. I also loved the new weapons and classes such as the laguz and halberdier. Music is also something you can handle listening to over and over again. I can't say anymore,just play it.

The 8 Manliest Meals in Novels, Ever
Coffee, beer, and meat of all kinds.
By Chris Malloy
The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck: A Classic Hamburger
At a nondescript diner an anonymous cook prepares a hamburger. Can a manlier meal be eaten? Mr. Steinbeck focuses on the cook, and it's so good we'll just let it roll here: "He presses down a hissing hamburger with his spatula. He lays the split buns on the plate to toast and heat. He gathers up stray onions from the plate and heaps them on the meat and presses them in with the spatula. He puts half the bun on top of the meat, paints the other half with melted butter, with thin pickle relish. Holding the bun on the meat, he slips the spatula under the thin pad of meat, flips it over, lays the buttered half on top, and drops the hamburger on a small plate. Quarter of a dill pickle, two black olives beside the sandwich… And he scrapes his griddle with the spatula and looks moodily at the stew kettle."

Story brought back Milton memories
Sunday, August 4, 2013
At the first of the week, I read a story in the Foster's Daily Democrat by Ron Cole about sharing land and moving cows, that brought back some memories.
In the late 1940's we moved up the road to a place known as the Staples Farm, going north on White Mountain Highway, just before the railroad crossing on the left. The house is still standing in good repair, gone is the big barn, carriage shed and small chicken coop. Across the road there was a big tar- papered barn that was used to store ice, the ice company was just up the road.This was before the White Mountain Highway was widened and some of the land lost. If you frequent the Lockhart Field, go over and look at the old Staples cemetery.
Today, as I ride by the Staples and Hoyt places, they are both on the market for sale.

Wake Forest stuns No. 2 Miami
Shane Larkin noticed during warm-ups that something was off with No. 2 Miami. The go-go, uptempo Hurricanes seemed a step slow, and not entirely ready to play.
They certainly paid for it.
Miami's unbeaten start to Atlantic Coast Conference play is history. So is its 14-game winning streak and its highest national ranking, after the Hurricanes were knocked off by Wake Forest 80-65 on Saturday.
''You could just see it tonight. I had a bad feeling coming into warm-ups with everybody going slow,'' Larkin said. ''I was trying to get people to go fast, and I wasn't even going full speed like I should have.
''Overall, we weren't prepared before the game and they came out and punched us in the mouth.''
Durand Scott had all 17 of his points in the second half for the Hurricanes (22-4, 13-1), the last of the schools in the six BCS conferences to get its first league loss.
Larkin added 13 points, Trey McKinney Jones had 11 and Kenny Kadji finished with 10.
But Miami never got closer than 11 in the final nine minutes and was outrebounded 36-35 by the younger, smaller Demon Deacons as the best start to ACC play since Duke's 16-0 mark in 1998-99 came to a surprisingly lopsided end.
''You want to go undefeated, you want to win every game, but you're still in first place,'' Larkin said. ''That's in the past and we're just going to let it stay in the past.''
The Hurricanes — whose previous three wins came by a combined 12 points - looked like they had another tight finish in them when Scott capped an 18-8 run with a jumper with 14½ minutes left to make it 46-41.
He added a layup two minutes later to pull Miami to 50-45, and it looked as if the Hurricanes were going to find a way to keep their charmed run rolling.
But two possessions later, C.J. Harris turned a turnover into a fast-break dunk that started a 12-0 run that put the Demon Deacons on the fast track to their biggest victory since they knocked off then-No. 1 Duke four years ago when they were in the top five themselves.
''There's been some tough times, so staying with it, fighting through adversity, finally coming on top of a big-time win is amazing,'' Harris said.
Harris finished with 23 points and hit all five of his 3-pointers while freshman Codi Miler-McIntyre added 15 points for the Demon Deacons (12-14, 5-9).
They shot 54 percent, led by double figures for the entire second half and reeled off 12 consecutive points to pull away for their biggest victory under third-year coach Jeff Bzdelik.
As the final seconds ticked away, Harris and Travis McKie — two of the team's three available non-freshmen on scholarship — exchanged a flying chest-bump before the Wake Forest students rushed the court for the second time in little over a month.
An 86-84 upset of then-No. 18 North Carolina State on Jan. 22 was its biggest victory under Bzdelik.
This one topped it, by far.
''Who would have ever thought Wake Forest beating Miami at home would have been a court-rushing scene?'' Larkin said.
McKie finished with 10 rebounds and five blocked shots and Devin Thomas scored 10 points for the Demon Deacons, who — after two years of being one of the ACC's worst teams — have transformed themselves into a tough out at home in the conference.
They improved to 5-2 against ACC foes at Joel Coliseum. The losses — to Duke and Georgia Tech — are by a combined six points.
''It shows hope, and if everybody has faith in us and the energy stays the way it does every game — at home, at least — that just shows a big future for Wake Forest basketball and the entire program, period,'' Miller-McIntyre said. ''I know it hasn't been so well in the past few years, but we're all trying to put that behind us.''
They thoroughly outplayed the Hurricanes from start to finish, hitting shots from all over the court against a Miami team that at times appeared fatigued after gutting out those three tight wins but wouldn't let that excuse fly.
FOXIEST FANSCheck out the FOXiest fans from arenas across the country and tweet us your photo.
''Wake Forest won this game,'' said Miami big man Reggie Johnson, a Winston-Salem native. ''We had mental lapses on the defensive and offensive end. ... I don't want to take anything away from Wake Forest.''
Harris hit three 3-pointers during a two-minute stretch of a 28-8 run that put Wake Forest up 19 on the Hurricanes — who until then hadn't trailed by more than 13 at any point in an ACC game during their run.
Arnaud William Adala Moto's fast-break layup with just over a minute before the break put the Demon Deacons up 42-23.
''Every player in the first half for them was very sharp. They were well rested,'' Miami coach Jim Larranaga said. ''They had a whole week to prepare for us. They defended us well and we were just not as sharp as we need to be.''

COLLEGE STATION – The head coach of the Texas A&M's Women's Basketball team is shaken up by the death of Noel Devin.
Firefighters found the bodies of Noel and her father, Thomas "Mac" Devin, Monday after putting out the fire that destroyed Noel's home on Vinewood Drive in Bryan.
Police have arrested a man accused of breaking into Noel's home, setting it on fire and stealing her SUV. Among the items police say they found in the Dennis Wayne Brown III's motel room, a parking pass from last month's NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament in Lincoln, Nebraska. Noel, who worked for the ticket office of the 12th Man Foundation, made the trip to Lincoln last month with the Aggies for their games against DePaul and UConn.
Coach Gary Blair released this statement:
"Noel (Devin) was family, and her love for Texas A&M and all of her teams made her beloved to our players, parents, coaches and fans that she loved to work with. Noel embodied service and loyalty like all Aggies, but she took it to another level.
Her time on earth was too short, but the lives she touched along the way made each of us better and more appreciative of the people that work with us.
The meaning of Noel is Christmas. In short "People with this name tend to initiate events, to be leaders rather than followers, with powerful personalities. They tend to be focused on specific goals, experience with a wealth of creative new ideas and the ability to implement these ideas with efficiency and determination. They tend to be courageous and sometimes aggressive as well as unique, creative individuals."
Thank you Noel for making each of us better."

He's Just Not That Into You: Or is He?
By Megan Sullivan, BounceBack Editorial Staff
Posted by: MeganVSullivan
Most of us have read the book or seen the film, claiming to bring all of the mystery and unnecessary stress out of dating with one simple phrase; "He's Just Not That Into You". It seems like the dating answer many women have been waiting for. Although empowering on many levels, the book's one dimensional approach to male dating behavior may leave its readers with only more unanswered questions....

Easy to get credit cards for Indian bloggers and web developers
Most of the Indian bloggers, webmasters and web developers are using Paypal service for making online transactions. The major feature of Paypal that attract customers is the security that it provides while making transactions. Here users don't need a credit card, and they can simply use their email to pay the bills. However, Paypal itself asks users to verify each account with credit card for further security and more features. Although Indian Paypal accounts can be verified using a bank account, it's better to get a real credit card considering few other causes. Some online stores and web hosting companies doesn't accept Paypal as a medium of payment. Furthermore, the subscription based services, like theme clubs, web services, etc. need a credit card attached to the Paypal account for automatic renewal.
Verify PayPal without credit card in India using HDFC Netsafe card
Paypal has became a widely accepted payment system for online purchase and fund transfer. The advantage of Paypal is the security it provides. It helps users with debit or credit card to purchase online by using email IDs, without exposing their real card number to the merchant. However, Paypal posses few limitations if its not verified using a credit card. Paypal forces all users to verify their account with a real credit card or debit card to enhance the security of the overall process. But getting a credit is still a difficult task in countries like India, although the wishers are in a credit limit to get one. The transfer and withdrawal limitations of unverified Paypal accounts can be removed by using virtual credit cards or VCCs. In India we have many private and public sector banks offering internet banking and virtual credit card service. HDFC is one such bank that provides facility called Netsafe, free for all their customers. Verifying Paypal without a real credit card is not recommend. But the HDFC Netsafe card would help users in a very needy situation. In this post we will show how you can Verify PayPal without credit card in India by creating a HDFC netsafe card.
Hostgator VPS hosting plans
Hostgator LLC, one of the leading web hosting provider with more than two million hosted domains announced their plans to start with VPS hosting services. We earlier covered the advantage of Hostgator shared web hosting over some of its competitors like Dreamhost .
