A few weeks ago James sent me an e-mail saying that he'd been coming across this thing called 'DevOps' a lot lately and it seemed like it might be the closest thing yet to our Platform Architect role, outside of EMC Consulting.
The Platform Architect team is a small, and mostly merry, band of technical consultants who typically started out their careers on the Infrastructure side of IT and have evolved to straddle the fence that divides the Infrastructure and Development worlds - if you read Grace's blogs, then you'll already have a fair idea of the types of things we get up to.
So getting back to my introduction to the DevOps world, I was intrigued by it not least because I often struggle to define what we as PA's do when talking to Clients without getting bogged-down in details; such is the breadth of what we have to cover. Hence why coming across a term with a defined understanding in the outside world was of such interest to me, both in terms of talking to Clients as well as how we find and recruit new PA's.
Hunting around for some further reading, one of the first articles I came across, was a guest post by Stephen Nelson-Smith on the rather coolly-named jedi.be blog (Just Enough Developed Infrastructure – nice!) which resonated with me hugely. As consultants, clearly we're not sysadmins in the purest sense, but we are invariably the sysadmins for those projects that we're involved with and as such the same pain points and desire to make things better still ring true. However, one of the benefits of operating within the team at EMC Consulting is that the typical barriers between disciplines that Stephen mentions are far less prevalent, as is the siloisation, mainly due to working in small to medium-sized project teams. That said, we will often collaborate with the Client's various teams and it is here that we regularly see exactly the tensions between them that Stephen highlights, and in that respect our role is very much a bridging one too.
One thing that seems notably absent from what I've read about DevOps (to-date) is any mention of Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) – this forms a fairly large part of the PA role here and I'm keen to learn whether ALM is indeed considered outside of DevOps, or whether I just haven't been looking in the right places. On the surface, much of what is talked about seems relevant to different parts of ALM but no-one seems to be making any explicit references to it. I'd be really interested to hear from anyone who can shed some light on this, one way or the other.
Configuration Management seems, understandably, to be a key topic in the DevOps world so in my next post I want to discuss an approach for tackling application configuration management that I've been working on lately. I use a lowercase C & M on purpose, as it is very much a lightweight approach that aims to remove as much friction as possible from the task of making application configuration files environment-agnostic (e.g. not hard-coding server names, credentials, paths etc.) whilst at the same time ensuring that the need for this activity is still very much front-and-centre in the development team's mind.

This game is illegally operated by the criminal organization Jagex. Ranked #10 on a longstanding server and possessing the #3 legend world-wide in game, I would know. They blatantly disregard false advertising law under the Lanham Act and international treaties, fraud laws, and outright blackmail those players which voice their legal concerns. I can only recommend that no person ever plays this game as a pay to play individual; Jagex will rob you blind.
ok nice chat game and if anyone need a alliance on the server mystic tigers you can join The Wild Dragons
tem baixar ?
I am writing to inform you that you may wish to update your current review of War of Legends that is published by Jagex.
The latest expansion Buzhou Mountains 1.4 is not proving to be as successful as it is being made out to be.
I would recommend having a good look at the forums.
There are serious security flaws across the servers which enables players to access other players accounts.
This has been going on since they implemented the latest expansion and, despite various attempts at fixing it, is getting worse.
Being a war game you can imagine the devastation unscrupulous players can do to another players account given free access.
Recommending this game, in its current state, to potential users of your site may not be in your best interests.

LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Carl Edwards earned his first victory of the season Sunday by winning at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Edwards finished second in the season-opening Daytona 500, then was wrecked by Kyle Busch last weekend at Phoenix, when he felt like he had a winning car.
At Las Vegas, the Roush Fenway Racing driver took two tires on the final pit stop to beat Tony Stewart, who took four tires. Stewart led a race-high 166 laps, but the four-tire stop with 33 laps remaining dropped him to 22nd and he was unable to make it back to the front.
Juan Pablo Montoya finished third and was followed by Marcos Ambrose, Ryan Newman and Martin Truex Jr. Denny Hamlin was seventh, while Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kurt Busch and Brian Vickers rounded out the top 10.

Wild at Heart
Filmmaker David Lynch (Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks) is planning to empty the contents of his mind into a coffee-table book, an eclectic collection of his drawings, paintings, photographs, short fiction, and essays. Harper & Row will publish in fall 1991.
Satellite Write
While explorer Will Steger was battling 60-day-long storms on his trans-Antarctica expedition begun in the summer of 1989, his coauthor, Jon Bowermaster, was toiling away in upstate New York on the research and writing of their book, Saving the Earth: A Citizen's Guide to Environmental Action. As Bowermaster finished each chapter, he sent it to Steger via supply plane from a base in Chile. Steger responded by satellite, typing GOODJOBJON or LAST2PAGESFINE on his monitor. When Steger finally reached the Soviet base at Vostok, he rushed to a phone to give Bowermaster line-by-line changes, just as the book was about to go to press.
Mambo Jumbo
The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love earned Oscar Hijuelos the 1990 Pulitzer Prize for fiction and a $16 million lawsuit. ''Glorious Gloria'' Parker, who leads an all-female band, charges that Hijuelos defamed her in The Mambo Kings by portraying a fictional band called ''Glorious Gloria Parker and Her All-Girl Rhumba Orchestra'' as rife with promiscuity. Parker also insists that as a consequence she and her band have been unable to earn a living.
Even though audio books taped versions of classics and current hot sellers sell smartly, some audio publishers are aware that many people are phasing out their cassette decks. So Rykodisc and Carol Publishing have joined forces to release the first book on CD. ''We haven't decided exactly which book, but it will come from our Citadel Underground series,'' says Carol publisher Steven Schragis, referring to the company's line of books about the American counterculture.

World's still a stage for Beverly man, 85
Phil Carlin, 85, is quite a character.
In fact, Carlin's been quite a few characters over the last 16 years or so.
A Chicago native and current resident of Smith Village, a senior living facility in the Beverly community, Carlin is a retired Loyola University professor who discovered an untapped acting talent in 1996.
In a twist of fate worthy of any play in which he's performed, Carlin became an actor because he returned a call he wasn't supposed to make.
In the mid-1990s, Sandra Martin, one of Carlin's doctoral students at Loyola University, left a phone message for Carlin asking him to return her call. A colleague of Carlin's told Carlin it wasn't necessary, saying he had already taken care of Martin's request, but Carlin made the call anyway — out of courtesy.
During the conversation, Martin mentioned that she was directing a play for the Joliet Theatre Guild.
"A couple of beats and she said, 'You'd be great as the old man.' If I hadn't called her ... ," Carlin said, his words trailing off.
Although Carlin said he had second thoughts about auditioning because of his real-life role as an educator ("I'm not an actor; I'm a teacher"), he decided to go for it.
"Teaching is show business," he said.
For several years, Carlin enjoyed acting in Chicago-area community theatre while remaining a professor at Loyola University.
In 1999, Carlin retired from a long career in education which began with a teaching position in the early 1950s at Bowen High School, in Chicago, after earning his degree at Loyola via the G.I. Bill. He and his wife, Mary, raised their four children in the Beverly community as he continued his career in education.
In retirement, Carlin could give more time to his new pastime. With his children grown and his wife in Smith Village's skilled nursing facility as an Alzheimer's patient until her death in 2009, Carlin found acting to be just what the doctor ordered.
"The theatre is a form of therapy," Carlin said.
For a dozen more years, Carlin continued to act in amateur productions throughout the Chicago area, finding that roles as "the old man" were plentiful with "nonequity" but "full-blown theatre companies."
He was cast in more than 50 productions.
Carlin's favorites are his first role in "Prelude to a Kiss" and the lead role of Norman in "On Golden Pond."
Sadly, his ability to continue in the world of community theatre at venues such as the Beverly Arts Center and Stray Dog Theatre has pretty much disappeared, Carlin said. He was diagnosed with macular degeneration in 2012 and his driving is restricted to daytime.
Because many of the rehearsals are held in the evening, he has been unable to attend auditions and rehearsals.
"It's a life(-changing) event," Carlin said.
But fate intervened again and Carlin was given another opportunity to perform when Amanda Mucieri, associate executive director of Smith Village and artistic director of the Smith Village Players, approached Carlin and another resident with experience in the theatre, Sig Erber, about starting a theatre group at Smith Village.
"It was a unified approach among the three of us," Mucieri said, "a kind of 'Wouldn't it be nice?' thing. There's so much wisdom and talent among our residents, but with those two men in particular."
The Smith Village Players have been performing since 2010, usually several times a year.
Carlin said the productions are reviews rather than the full-length plays he has been accustomed to doing. And although Carlin said he never had trouble memorizing his roles, he realizes that is not always the case for others.
"It's a different population," Carlin said. "It's fun and, of course, there's a rule: Nobody has to memorize anything."
Carlin said there are about 20 residents who are "regulars," performing skits and group singing.
Being a member of the Smith Village Players helps fill the void that macular degeneration created for Carlin. An intelligent and active person, Carlin said he enjoys being part of the group and having the opportunity to continue his late-in-life passion.
His delight shows in his obvious humor when he describes one of his roles in a recent "Dancing with the Stars" review. Carlin said he was called upon to wear "pantyhose" as he danced onstage to Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Flowers."
"So you can imagine it got a few laughs," he said with a chuckle.
Carlin said there's more entertainment to come from the Smith Village Players, with the possibility of one-act short plays in the future, and the players will continue to present their annual Christmas show.
Between rehearsals and reviews, Carlin sometimes finds himself in demand to make other appearances. Having been a two-year veteran of the U.S. Navy who served in the final months of World War II, Carlin this year was asked to serve as grand marshal for the Beverly-area Memorial Day Parade.
And three times a week, he travels by train to Navy Pier to act as a history docent for the Chicago Line cruises.
Although Carlin will say it is "frustrating not being able to go for (parts in plays)," his life continues to be full and his memories of plays gone by are good ones.
"It was all positive," Carlin said. "It was hard work — memorizing. That was hard, but I could do it."

Highlights of the public service campaign
Designed without charge by the Bleublancrouge agency, the new public service campaign aims to make everyone feel the urgent need to act. Backed by a vast public relations operation, the campaign is being deployed in the different media (print, TV and Internet) and conveys the message that it is never too late to learn and that today the general public can do something to combat indifference and force illiteracy to retreat.
TV campaign
With one adult in six having trouble reading, the Foundation is launching a twofold appeal to the public: Help us help them! and You can do it!.
|View the TV advertisement
Print campaign
All media are invited to air or print this advertising in order to raise public awareness of the shocking problem of illiteracy.
The Words of hope TV message broadcast in Fall 2007 on several channels had a significant impact on the Info-Alpha line, since the service posted a 100% increase in the volume of its calls that quarter. These results even surpassed those obtained after Jacques Demers revealed his illiteracy in 2005.
Affected more men than usual.
Affected more people aged over 45.
Affected more people in the regions.
Affected Francophones more; only 6% of users were Anglophone, compared with 18% during a regular year.
Led to a 100% increase in the volume of calls compared with a regular year.
39% of Info-Alpha line users mentioned the TV message as their referral source.
4.9% mentioned the print campaign.
Record number of visits to the Web site: 3,384 visits in October 2007, up 49% from October 2006.
Web banner: more than 1,000 Web surfers clicked on the animated banner in October and November 2007.

Had a great weekend. We went riding on Sunday and Friday night we bought a new horse. He is a standard gelding and is about 14.2 hands high. He is a bay and very friendly! We stayed at the ranch Saturday night. Still no elk bugling. Today hubby is having some sort of evaluation test done. It takes two days. I hope they don't have him over do things so that he is in a lot of pain.

A Tour of Timberland Canada's New Uber Green HQ
Categories: Making Our Difference: TBL CSR, Who We Are, What We Do: TBL Culture & People
A few months ago, after spending some time at the Toronto International Film Festival, I had the privilege of visiting Timberland Canada's Headquarters at the Evergreen Brick Works campus, a community environmental center that inspires and equips visitors to live, work and play more sustainably. Evergreen, a national charity, transformed the former Don Valley Brick Works from a collection of deteriorating buildings into an international showcase for urban sustainability and green design.
Josh, Timberland Canada marketer and tour guide extraordinaire, showed me around, pointing out features that make this campus the epitome of sustainable building and design. LEED® Platinum Certified, the center is expected to reduce energy consumption by more than 50 percent. While that alone is impressive, I was really blown away by the innovative eco-conscious features we found around every corner. A few of my favorites:
- The Evergreen Brick Works building was constructed on top of the foundation from the former Don Valley Brick works – they even left the old graffiti on the bricks!
- There's a garden center filled with local produce on site, with proceeds going to fund Evergreen's efforts.
- Solar Chimneys help remove hot air from the building and reduce the need for air conditioning.
- Large rainwater harvesting cisterns collect rainwater from the rooftops and reuse it in the campus' toilets and garden.
- The parking lot's concrete is pervious, which allows water to go back into the ground and maintain a natural cycle.
- The LED parking lot lights are specially designed to direct light downward, keeping the sky naturally dark for bats, insects and other animals.
You can learn more about Evergreen Brick Works, and even take your own tour, at http://ebw.evergreen.ca/ .
Timberland Canada Throws a House Party
Categories: Hikers to Handsewns: Products & Design, Making Our Difference: TBL CSR, Who We Are, What We Do: TBL Culture & People
The following video documents a special event recently held at our new Canadian office located at the Evergreen Brick Works — a spectacular community environmental center that also serves as an international showcase for urban sustainability and green design.
The event celebrated our new home, and also kicked off the 10-day Toronto International Film Festival, of which Timberland was a sponsor. We invited media, stylists and influencers to preview our Fall products and get a sneak peek at what we're going to debut in Spring 2012.
The evening also featured "Timberland in Film," as we highlighted Timberland products that have appeared or will appear on the big screen.
To top it all off, we offered EcoCab tours of the Brick Works and invited attendees to have their picture taken on our very own Timberland red carpet. Who says star treatment is only for celebrities?
Thanks to everyone who attended our housewarming and helped us to celebrate our partnerships, past and present.
Like the soundtrack? It's The Chad Hollister Band, our featured artists for September. Go ahead and download this tune for free on our music page.

Great shots Valerie! I would love to travel to France for this kind of reenactment :) I especially love the ones with the horses !
A Day in the Napoleonic Era – Haras du Pin – France
Le Haras du Pin, located in Normandy, is one of the most prestigious stud farms in the country. It is often referred to as the 'Le Versailles du cheval' or 'Versailles of the horse world' due mostly to its stunning architecture. Le Haras du Pin was founded by Colbert in 1665 and approved by Louis XIV in 1715. In the summer of 2010 it became the stage for a three-day Napoleon camp reenactment.
Historical reenactment events are a wonderful opportunity for some great photography. Yet, it is often very tricky to isolate the subjects from the thousands of visitors gathered to watch the various scenarios. I used my beloved 70-200 mm f/2.8 lens exclusively that day. Here are some of my favorite photos of the event. I hope you enjoy them. Please share your thoughts by leaving a message! Thanks! Valérie

Beau Spectacle. Belles prises de vue.
Very interesting, and it looks like fun! My favorites are NapoleanReenactment 32, 25 and 21.
I've been meaning to tell you how cool this series of pictures is! I've been reading some historical fiction about this period, albeit more about Scottland, Enland and the"colonies"…but these costumes and armaments are just fantastic! I especially like the pictures of the field general both on horseback and the side close up of his very majestic hat. Wow, I think you really captured the feeling of what a field of battle would have looked like…I can almost smell the smoke! Great work!!!
J'aime les reconstitutions, le travail du photographe doit être soigné et l'oeil attentif aux décalage historique, entre objets d'hier et d'aujourd'hui… arriére plan… etc… Là c'est d'autant plus difficile car nous sommes au 19éme siécle!!
Beau travail de cadrage et de détail.
J'aime beaucoup!!

He is a cataract specialist and very good at his job!
Very caring & concerned with my care.
All of my experiences were good ones! I really like Dr. Keith Walters and am very Blessed that he was the one that I was sent to for treatment. I have always been embarrassed about my eyesight and Dr. Walters took the time to work with me to improve my sight and always made me feel comfortable. He was always patient with me when I attempted to explain what I was experiencing with my sight. I am 58 years old, I wore glasses(pop bottles) for 52 years, I am not wearing eyeglasses now, my sight has improved tremendously and I have Dr. Keith Walters to thank for that, I hope I can keep him as my doctor always. I trust him with my eyes completely. I will recommend him to all that I know that has sight problems.
Dr. WALTER has always taken the time to talk with me about any concerns. He is a caring Dr. I appreciate him .
Care provider was excellent. Showed kindness and concern.
All very good.
My health provider seemed disinterested in interacting with his patient.
I am very thankful for doctors like *Dr. Walter.
I was having issues with severe dry eyes after LASIK. Dr. Walter eased my mind about it and reccomended a gel at night. It worked like a charm. He is engaging with his patients and extremely knowledgable.
felt like the care provider blew me off and showed a lack of concern for the condition of my eye sight after he did what he did . my vision is worse now than it was when i walked into his office the first time.
There were too many people who were in tune with my particular issue. It all seemed robotic.
I think the provider is good as what he does, and I would recommend him for his knowledge and expertise. However, he lacks personal skills and attention to his patients is poor. He should be attentive to his patients.
I wouldn't have anyone else operate on my eyes.
The visits are always positive and pleasant; I feel informed and comfortable about my visits. I have recommended Dr. Walter to several people already and will continue to do so.
Provider dose not or can not figure out why I I can not see well with my right eye after my corneal implant
Excellent experience.
Very good.
Covered everything.
One of the best doctors I have had anywhere. His manner was pleasant, he explained things so that I could understand what he was saying. He seemed to really care and that is important to the patient.
Very good experience - always.
Could have prepared me for cost of meds which was a lot.
Dr. Walter is always pleasant and knowledgeable.
Felt very confident in his prognosis and outlook of healing process.. Thank You!!
Hopefully doctor would give me any cautious instruction and explanation of my eye photos for eye health.
very pleased with Dr. Walter and associates
been with Dr walter long time, totally trust him and depend on him for eye care
Everyone is outstanding!!!! They all need to be acknowledged by upper management!
It is nice to get explanations in terms a non medical can understand, and to have questions answered.
Completely satisfied with *Dr. K. Walter.
*Dr. Walter always shows excellent concern for the patient and never seems rushed. He answers all questions and explains things thoroughly.
The entire staff seems very caring
Excellent care
Very good experience.
My experience with *Dr. Walter was great - Couldn't have been better.

NGOs Push To Disarm A "European Time Bomb" Of Age-Related Sight Loss
ROME, December 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
AMD Alliance International (AMDAI), World Blind Union (WBU) and International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) Italy launch a campaign to disarm "a European time bomb" of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) sight loss by providing tools for healthcare practitioners and local organisations aimed at helping them to raise awareness among the general public and plan appropriate interventions.
In Europe there are 30 million blind and partially-sighted persons, and this number is likely to grow given the ageing population. Yet, 50% of blindness in Europe is preventable. [1] The leading cause of blindness in Europe is AMD, ahead of cataract, glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy.
AMD occurs in a portion of the retina called the macula. Abnormal blood vessels grow beneath the macula where they leak causing damage to cells that are responsible for our sharp central vision. The main risk factor is ageing but prevention and early diagnosis are key to controlling the disease.We all have a role in preventing AMD and other eye diseases. The toolkit we are launching today at our Regional EU meeting in Rome should in the first place help local organisations and healthcare practitioners develop awareness-raising initiatives for older people who are at higher risk of developing AMD, but also their friends, relatives and carers. - says Narinder Sharma, CEO of AMDAI. The toolkit will be disseminated among all interested parties and can be found at http://www.amdalliance.org/wbu Both NGOs and governments need to recognise the growth in age related sight loss and plan appropriate interventions. This toolkit will help them understand the challenge and plan necessary services. - adds Alan Suttie, Chairman of World Blind Union's Elderly Working Group and Coordinator of the European Elderly Blind Network . This effort comes amidst a wider initiative of the European Forum Against Blindness - an alliance of advocacy groups, including AMDAI, which is seeking to raise these issues with the European Institutions and governments, to reduce the incidence and burden of preventable blindness in Europe. In 2013 we will launch a Call to Action to EU policy makers as we believe that this problem is neglected at the moment - says Narinder Sharma. Blindness is both a personal tragedy and a burden to society. It results in healthcare costs of around $11,400 per patient per year, as well as substantial productivity loss for the economy. [2] - adds Giuseppe Castronovo, President of the Italian Branch of IAPB. Franca-Maria Torti, an AMD sufferer herself underlines also a personal responsibility - Governments and NGOs are important but disarming this "blindness bomb" requires an effort from all of us. We need to take responsibility - get your eyes checked regularly by a doctor but also at home using a simple test ( a grid I see deformed, as if it was drawn on a wrinkled paper) . To prevent AMD avoid smoking, control your cholesterol and weight and have a diet rich in dark green, leafy vegetables. SOURCE AMD Alliance International

This self-assessment should help you better plan and run meetings.. Give yourself 1 point for each yes, 0 points for each no:
1. You carefully decide whether a meeting really is necessary. Usually meetings are needed only when time-sensitive interaction is required: for example, brainstorming to solve an urgent problem. If it isn't time-sensitive, an email soliciting input may better use people's time. One-way communication, such as a progress report, is also usually better handled via email.
Your score: ____
2. You carefully decide who needs to attend a meeting. Often, fewer people need attend than one might first think. If a person might be offended at not being invited, explain why his or her time would better be used elsewhere.

AFCON 2013: Mali v Ghana Live Updates
Africa Cup of Nations
- Venue: Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, Port Elizabeth
- Date: Saturday 9 February
- Kick-off: 18:00 GMT
Ghana and Mali meet for the fourth time in the last two Africa Cup of Nations – having being drawn in the same group and ending up in the third place play-off at both tournaments.
The Black Stars won this year's Group B meeting, as they did in last year's finals, but Mali prevailed to finish third in Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.
Both have a player suspended – Ghana's Mohamed Rabiu and Mali's Samba Sow.
The two sides are also likely to give several of their fringe players a game.
Mubarak Wakaso's penalty gave the Black Stars the edge in a tight 1-0 victory over the Eagles in Port Elizabeth.
Wakaso will hope to play on Saturday as he battles with Nigeria's Emmanuel Emenike to be the tournament's top scorer. Both are on four strikes apiece heading into the last two games of the tournament.
Ghana defender John Pantsil is an injury doubt after being taken off with an injury during the semi-final defeat by Burkina Faso, but Derek Boateng, who felt unwell after the match has now recovered.
Mali coach Patrice Carteron:
"It's an important game for us because it's really hard to finish in third place.
"Most of the big nations – Ivory Coast, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia – didn't [manage] it.
"So we have to appreciate having been in the semi-final, and we have to focus on this game against Ghana.
"Of course the players were disappointed but now they have to be realistic and realise it's a good thing to play this game and try to become the third place [team] for the second year [running]."
Ghana defender John Pantsil:
"Third place is equally good, that's the medal zone.
"Playing against Mali and getting that medal I think will be very, very good for the team.
"[It will] also boost the young players and get them on their feet for next month's World Cup qualifiers.
"We are here to compete and we want to be in the medals, so we have to go all out and play well and get a win to prove we are a good side."

Not Everything Expected But Still A Great Game

While I was expecting to play as Cid (a younger Cid, a nephew, a son? who knows) you find yourself playing as the Chocobo in the early chapters at least. After a long lead in of set pieces you find everyone is losing their memories and it seems ot be your job to recover them by completing dungeons that reveal their entrance next to those people.
As usual the story is not instantly clear and the completion of each dungeon provides more clues and restores more memories for people.
The dungeons are not overly complicated so far and the combat system is quite simplistic although it would seem to have potential for more types of attacks and spells at a later stage. Even if you have never played an RPG before there is nothing here that is not clearly explained.
FF has gone a little more down the D&D route this time with items. Special properties are not always instantly clear and that includes cursed items, which you cannot unequip without a Dispel spell. Many items are now best left until you can determine their true nature with spells or other items which are provided within dungeons at times.
There is a lot of character interaction in this game. As usual a good amount of this is often of little consequence but you have to take care as some sly clues are slipped in to what seems innocuous at first glance. Take nothing for granted.
Now I do have a coupla niggles. Often in scenes with voice you can let the voice complete but the animation of the mouth keeps on flapping, it kinda bugs me. Also scene changeovers can be a tad on the slow side. If it wasn't Square/Enix I may not mind but these guys are the tops at this so I do.
Overall tho it is a great game for FF followers. If youa re new to the series then it may be a good intro.RENT IT

When the clock in town rings most people lose their memories. In order to get them back, Chocobo has to venture into dungeons, battle monsters and beat the big boss at the end of said dungeons.
This is a typical RPG where inventory management is needed. Also, the player has to choose what job to be (regular, knight, Black Mage, and so on) with each job having their advantages and disadvantages.
Getting the right items can be a hassle; I couldn't find a store outside of the dungeons to buy these items, and it's pure luck to find that store inside the dungeon.
Also, there are many, many random encounters with powerful enemies. (Who thought a flan can be so tough to beat?) I ended up going through the same dungeon a dozen times over.
And the dungeons look all the same except for changes in the background.
But for those who can meet up with the challenge and get through the dungeons will be rewarded with a great story with likable characters. Plus, there's the sheer joy of finding new items and beating the big boss at the end of each dungeon.
Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon isn't for everyone; rent it first to see if you're into this RPG.

I had a great time with it. Yes it could be a bit repetitive at times, but RPGs normally are at some points. I loved all the different jobs/classes. It helped break up the game and add a bit more strategy to it. I didn't like the camera in the game at times. But it wasn't too overly problematic.
The game isn't very long, but if you want to do every dungeon and level every job type/class, you will have a lot of gameplay.
I did enjoy the online card playing with this too.
Some of the dungeons are very easy. Some are rather annoying.
Over all, I give it a 7.5 I would score higher if it wasn't for the camera and some of the unbalanced dungeon difficulty.
Good fun, Good game. I hope they do another one for the series. :D

Beyond that the storyline is interesting and appealing. The bird enters into the minds of the townspeople and fights creatures within their nightmares. Probably the cutest and most lovable hero I've ever seen in an RPG.
I highly recommend this game to anyone =)

You play Chocobo (duh), a cute little yellow bird who packs a big punch. Your levels take place in the memories of the townsfolk and in four main elemental dungeons. Along the way, you'll fight toads, bats, birds, skeletons, etc. and run into a whole bunch of traps. You'll also pick up tons of items. The main items you'll want to pick up are saddles and talons, which, along with collars, are the sole equipment in the game. Through a system of honing and fusing, you can improve and combine these to make something truly fierce. It's a great case of simplicity gaining depth.
You also get a job system, which unlocks over the course of the game. Each class has advantages and purpose, which makes variety a high point.
It's pretty addictive gameplay and has the touch of presentation value you'd expect from Square Enix. The biggest problem I had was with control. Holds the Wiimote sideways isn't a big deal, but moving around with the D-Pad seems stilted and counter-intuitive by today's standard. Worse yet, there is no option to use the nunchuk, which would have given players analog control. The other gripe many will have is in the Diablo-style randomized dungeon design. Running through a few floors isn't bad, but toward the end you'll be navigating through dungeons 100 levels deep. Even with level jumpers, the hack-n-slash slog will leave some disinterested.
But don't let it's flaws keep you from trying out this engaging RPG adventure.

Now, I played Chocobo's Dungeon for almost ten hours (and accomplished things) and this is the exact same thing: even to the point where when you die you lose everything you have except your experience points and what you had equipped. This doesn't sound too bad except that death comes quickly at times and it becomes impossible to prep for a dungeon crawl when you have very few items to spare and dying means losing some very important, very expensive things.
Item space is at a major premium in this game (even storage has a low limit) and you'll spend much of it always clearing out one spot on your list to make room for the item on the floor to see if it's one measly point better than the item you have equipped, which it almost never is. You have only one character to control so really you're playing Diablo in cutesy form which is very deceiving because the plot is about a dark evil sucking out people's memories and most of the before mentioned memories involve pain, war, and death. Not something that fits the image of the blue eyed golden bird that is the main character.
If you haven't played any of the other Final Fantasy iterations of late and need something (and are refusing to play before said other versions of FF's) to keep you busy, this won't kill you, but the low score is due to lack of originality of an overall blahness that totally sucks the life out of the game. I was depressed wondering the halls with my chocobo and I should have a Final Fantasy sense of wonder instead.

Chocobo's Dungeon

To be honest this game isn't half bad. I enjoyed playing a FF game as I have never really had the opportunity to play one before. However the dungeons got old really fast. With the exception of the main dungeons the other ones looked pretty much the same. Finally finding people's memories did help, they were interesting and added some depth to the game. There are some dungeons that one only beats based on luck, in fact there's more than one. I usually don't have a huge problem with this, as an adventure gamer a lot of the games I play rely on luck and a specific sequences. Both are an exercise in frustration. But I have refused to play a certain dungeon because it is just too hard to get through it. There are others that make you think they require a strategy...but they too are based on luck! You get sent back to the beginning with nothing many many times which made me want to scream.
There are some good things. The characters while nothing new plot wise were interesting and engaging to me. At first I was kind of disappointed that I was playing a small fluffy yellow bird but as the game went on I found myself enjoying fishing with my tail, planting flowers, finding 'secret' words and having people understand my character even though all I did was chirp. The moogles were especially entertaining and provided a nice break from the game play. I think the main reason I am returning this game without finishing it is that there is nothing to draw me back in.
Overall I enjoyed this game, but repetitive dungeons, dungeons that I felt like were only completable with luck and little strategy (I think it ought to be the other way around) and unimaginative graphics kept me from liking it more.

Yet another 'mystery dungeon' game

Music aside, the gameplay is fun, but it does get repetitive after a while. While the dungeons change every time you go in, it doesn't change so much that it makes it impossible to navigate. Some dungeons are dark, some have lots of traps that are deceiving. The first few dungeons are easy, but then by the time you go into the first elemental dungeon, you're hit with a /harsh/ curve, and it gets really hard, I ended up dying a lot. And dying is not a very fun thing, not only do you lose whatever money you managed to gain, but all your items as well except the ones you had equipped. However, you do keep whatever experience you get. I found it better to go into a dungeon without any items and kill things until I leveled up some.
I found the voice acting to be rather grating at times, especially when I had to listen to the characters remembering things. Some games, you're just better off without voice acting, in my opinion.
So, all in all, I found the game enjoyable, while slightly annoying on some aspects.
Couldn't get into it

I guess I own the wrong system.
The storyline was decent but I still couldn't get into the game. I played maybe an hour or 2 in and sent it back.

The game play is much like an adventure role-playing game since you play not as Cid but as his companion Chocobo. You walk through the dungeon floors and fight off monsters so you can get to the young boy who has a hold of the memory fragment. The style of fighting is like turn-based role-playing, but the turns revolve around attacks and movements, which bugs the heck out of me since when I play a Final Fantasy game, I want to go into random battles and fight turn-based and not attack-based. Another thing that bugs me is how many floors there are inside the dungeons, but the one thing that will bug players the most is the meters and item-wielding. One meter is for your special abilities, and you can only use it three times until you need it recharges back up again. You can only hold a certain amount of items. Another thing you need to watch out for is how much energy Chocobo has. It starts at 100% but it will go down the longer you walk around. When it runs out, Chocobo will start running out of hit points which is rather bothersome if you're in a very large dungeon and you didn't pack item

Hang on to your horns and haloes -- the earth is about to move.
Forget what you think you know about who is pure and who is pure evil. These three brimstone -- hot stories will turn all your preconceived notions inside outand leave you breathless.
Featuring My Avenging Angel by Madelyn Ford
Victoria should be celebrating her birthday. Instead she's using her newly emerged powers to summon an angel to protect her from a demon out to kill her. No mere spell can hold an archangel as powerful as Michael, but the fact she's his destined mate has him shaking in his heavenly combat boots -- and in danger of losing his heart.
Read more...
Once one of the most powerful of Angels, Bale, along with his fellow Grigori brethren, were punished due to Lucifer's trickery, and the only hope for redemption is to protect those Earthbound souls from the rising of Lucifer's Demon children. It is a duty they gladly accept. But when Bale finds himself fascinated with the vampire, Faith, he fights it. Not only does the longing for her go against a vow he'd made centuries before, he is pretty certain someone is targeting him and his brothers-one of their own-so to protect her, he tries to resist the pull.
For Faith Magee, meeting Bale was like stepping out of the pan and into the fire. An injury due to a Demon hunt sends her into Transfiguration, the process by which a child born of a Vampire father turns, one year early and instead of getting out from under her domineering father's thumb, finds that by taking Bale's blood, she is bonded to a male who doesn't seem to want her. And to make matters worse, blood from any other makes her violently ill. With her only options starving to death or giving into an alpha warrior, what's a vampire to do?
To save her life, he must break a covenant -- and lose his heart.
An Angels and Demons story.
It's Victoria Bloom's twenty-fifth birthday. But is she out celebrating? Oh, no. She's in a stuffy old attic with the Three Stooges-a.k.a. her so-called spirit guides. There's a demon who wants her dead, the same one that killed her mother two decades ago. No worries, say the Stooges. All she has to do is summon an angel. What could go wrong?
Well, plenty when you summon the wrong angel. The next thing Tory knows, she's got one very bad-ass, pissed-off and sexy Archangel on her hands.
Michael, mighty warrior, leader of an elite team of demon killers, is shaking in his heavenly combat boots. Not because he finds all humans distasteful. But because he'd rather face Lucifer himself than the woman his soul has just recognized as his mate. Binding himself to a mortal, one who will eventually die, is the one path he's sworn never to follow.
It's too late now; his fate is sealed. With one touch, she becomes as necessary to him as the air he breathes. He will move heaven and earth to protect her-but against a demon as powerful as Asmodeus, heaven and earth may not be enough...
Warning: This book contains one bad-ass Archangel with a fiery, um, sword, a witch who blows things up, one nasty demon who is trying to kill them both, and ghosts who make interfering their mission. Steamy sex is had, even with the voyeur ghosts-though Tory is still blushing.
