(CNN) -- Sen. Tim Johnson, D-South Dakota, on Monday joined the wave of senators from his party who are endorsing same-sex marriage for the first time.
The third-term senator, who's not seeking re-election next year, said in a statement his "views have evolved sufficiently to support marriage equality legislation."
"This position doesn't require any religious denomination to alter any of its tenets; it simply forbids government from discrimination regarding who can marry whom," he said.
With his announcement, that leaves three Senate Democrats who have yet to come out in support for gay and lesbian couples to have the legal right to marry. All three come from conservative-leaning states. They include Sen. Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, Sen. Mark Pryor of Arkansas, and Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia.
Both Pryor and Landrieu are up for re-election next year, while Manchin's term ends in 2018.
Landrieu told CNN National Political Correspondent Jim Acosta in an interview Friday that she personally believes "people should love who they love and marry who they want to marry," but that her obligation rests with the people of Louisiana who elected her.
"My state has a very strong constitutional amendment not only against gay marriage but against gay partnerships. So I'm looking at the people of Louisiana trying to represent their interests," she said.
Two Republicans have announced support for same-sex marriage: Rob Portman of Ohio and Mark Kirk of Illinois. Meanwhile, Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski recently said her views on the issue are "evolving."
The Supreme Court heard oral arguments last month in two cases on the issue, including a challenge to the federal Defense of Marriage Act that defines marriage as between a man and a woman. During that week, it was reported that Johnson reversed his position on DOMA, but he did not come out in full support of same-sex marriage at the time.
CNN's Steve Brusk, Ashley Killough and Kevin Liptak contributed to this report.

I've been afraid of the Mayan Apocalypse since May 19, 2002, the night I saw the X-Files series finale. Spoiler alert: basically the Cigarette Smoking Man tells Mulder and Scully that the Mayans knew when the aliens were coming, and that was the day — December 22, 2012. (Others say the 21st, so it'll just be a great weekend of fear.) Mulder and Scully accept their fate, with Scully understanding the truth and Mulder understanding Scully's faith, and it's a lovely ending but also SUPER-BLEAK.
And at the time, it was like, well 2012 is so far away. I'll be twenty-six, I'll have lived a good life. It'll be sad to watch my children be eaten by aliens, but at least I'll have had them and we'll have been happy. Twenty-six seemed so old.
I later became convinced that, although the aliens probably wouldn't be coming, some asshole would make it a self-fulfilling prophecy and release anthrax or smallpox into the atmosphere. (Oh, right, that X-Files episode aired THREE DAYS after the ER smallpox outbreak episode, which I watched at least 100 times because Carter and Abby make out at the end of it. This was also shortly after the real-life anthrax attacks and 9/11 and my fifteenth birthday, so it was a rough and strange time all around.)
I have an uncle who believes alien contact is going to happen at some point in the near future, and he came up with a good meeting place for the family for when the inevitable happens. I will not say what the place is, because there is not enough room for all of us. When I moved to the west coast, much of my nervousness was about moving more than a day's drive from this meeting place. This has evolved, over a period of several years — and through the filming and release of a second X-Files movie that did absolutely nothing to shed light on how Mulder and Scully were going to save us from this –, into a very real sense of dread and fear. I mean, thank God they are going to air the Gossip Girl finale the week before!
For a long time, I have thought about what I'd need to do in December 2012. I have planned to have a full tank of gas, plus extra gas cans in the trunk. Stock up on dog food and non-perishables (so Freckles and I can eat). Watch I Am Legend (research). Buy US and Mexican maps (GPS won't work).
And now that the time is upon us, a really weird thing is happening — no one is freaking out.
I thought surely people would be hoarding canned goods, that churches would be packed, and that gasoline and other fossil fuels would start becoming scarce right around now. I thought everyone would be worried and scared, and that it would be hard to be away from my parents during these Uncertain Times. And yet … this is not happening. December 2012 has crept up on me, with little fanfare or panic. 13 million Americans watched the series finale of The X-Files, and yet everyone else seems okay.
I mean, I have plans in January. I have work to do in 2013. God willing, both Kate Middleton and Lady Mary Crawley will have babies next year, and the world needs to meet them.
The closer the date comes, the more secure I feel that the end of the world is not actually happening. Which is strange for me, considering I've carried this clenched feeling in my heart for over a decade. I'm not really sure what I'll do when I wake up the morning after The Day and realize the sun is still shining and we're all still here. Frankly, it's going to be a little weird, and I won't be completely convinced until it happens.
I still think I'll get gas.

The Lakeside Blog springs forth from the creative mind of Michelle Bruck at the Interlaken Inn, Lakeville, CT. She writes about events, great places to visit and cool things to do – in and around Lakeville & Salisbury Connecticut.

Hockey Heros
It's not every day that I see this in one of the meeting rooms at Interlaken:
We had the pleasure of having the 2013 - 14 U.S. National Women's Hockey Team stay with us last night. They are in the Northwest Corner of Connecticut to face off with the Salisbury School Boy's Team at the Flood Athletic Center this afternoon. Be sure to click on the link to see some wonderful professional photos of the players in action.
Baby, It's Cold Outside
The temperatures have dropped now, so yes, it's cold enough for snow - at least these past couple of days in Lakeville. In fact, our first "snow" of the season covered the property yesterday morning: a nice pretty dusting just to remind us that the season is approaching and to be prepared for some fun winter activities!
Given the chill in the outside air, it was only appropriate to have Tom and Heidi from our closest ski mountain - Mohawk Mountain - join us for our Intermingle this evening. With a hot toddy in hand and the fireplace crackling behind us, we talked about the quickly approaching ski season at this mountain just 20 minutes from Interlaken. Tom said Mohawk is the perfect mountain to teach your children to ski because of its convenient size and family friendly environment. With 25 trails and 7 lifts all set in a scenic state forest in Cornwall, CT, Mohawk offers lessons for all ages, rentals and even night skiing. Skiiers, don't get too excited just yet: their opening day is optimistically scheduled for the first weekend after Thanksgiving - with a more realistic opening day for the second weekend in December. If the cold temperatures like this stick around, you can start making your plans to stay at Interlaken and ski at Mohawk Mountain with your family!
We are Comfortable
Comfortable: providing physical ease and relaxation.
Very comfortable bed
The rooms were very comfortable
Beds comfortable and rooms well maintained
The beds were very comfortable
I thought the bed was great
The rooms were very comfortable
Our accommodations were really cozy
The room was very clean and comfortable
Other recent Guests also went on to say:
My room was beautiful, immaculate, comfortable, well-lighted, and spacious. Just right in every way. I slept really well both nights, due to the quiet, the lack of intrusive lights, and the wonderful mattress.
Clean and crisp the rooms
The room was nice and I must say very clean
The rooms were exceptionally clean
If you are in the mood for a comfortable night's sleep in a clean room, come stay at Interlaken.
Familiar Faces
Here they are again, Deb and Pam.
It's like clock work - the first weekend in November we can count on seeing happy faces like this for the annual "Quilts and Treasures" retreat here at Interlaken. There are 45 women here this weekend, all have their own quilting station and plenty of big tables to spread their work out on. It looks like such fun!
This year these ladies are working on a very special quilt for their son/nephew and his new bride - a "Wedding Signature Quilt". This was new to me so naturally I had to take a closer look.
They are just starting to create this special masterpiece: At the wedding each Guest signed a piece of fabric with their love, good wishes, great advice - and some of the smaller Guests drew pictures to the special couple. Now the ladies get to put it altogether for this priceless quilt that will last a lifetime!
We can get your group, whatever their creativity may be and whatever size group, set for an annual weekend at Interlaken too! Just contact Kristy Barto at kristy-at-interlakeninn.com for more details.
The New Year
The New Year will be starting in just 60 days - have you made your plans yet? Not that I am asking you to jump over Hanukkah, Thanksgiving, or Christmas - but let's "begin with the end in mind" this the holiday season! It's easy to book the New Year's Eve Hotel Package:
What: New Year's Eve Celebration
When: Tuesday, December 31st
Where: Interlaken Inn, Lakeville, CT
Who: You, our Guests, both repeat and new!
How to have a good time:
- Raw bar with clams, oysters, shrimp
- Extraordinary dinner buffet (Menu) for two, plus antipasto and salad stations
- Full premium open bar all night
- Dancing till midnight & beyond
- Midnight balloon drop and champagne toast
- Overnight accommodations
- Breakfast buffet on New Year's Day
Please call us anytime at 1-800-222-2909 to make your reservation. We'd love to ring in 2014 with you!
A beaming Bride and Groom
I love to taking pictures of the weddings here at Interlaken (as you probably know if you are a regular blog reader.) The pretty ceremony at the lakefront, the reception area under the pavilion, the amazing flower arrangements, the cake, and any other special touches the wedding couple has chosen. This time, however, I am proud to actually show photos with people in them!! And happy ones at that.
Meet Mr. and Mrs. Garelick, united in marriage over Columbus Day Weekend.
We were honored to be the chosen venue to take care of their family and friends for their once-in-a-lifetime event. I am going to venture to say they were pleased with their choice too as witnessed in the bride's review on weddingwire.com:
"My husband and I got married here on 10/13/13. We had the most amazing time ever, largely in part to the event coordinators Stephanie and Brandon. They were extremely helpful throughout the process and made everything stress-free. On the day of the event everything went seamlessly. It is a truly beautiful property and the people there make it even more perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend this place for your wedding or event. The food is also fantastic!"
Thank you, Jen, for sharing some photos. We look forward to seeing many more!

We are proud to partner with UNICEF on a new music video for "Shadow" filmed in Ethiopia! The video is part of UNICEF's Out-Of-School Children Initiative to raise awareness for the 58 million children worldwide who are out of school. 3 million children remain out of school in Ethiopia.
"Shadow is a song for people as a whole everywhere in the world. It's about realizing that we are all equals and should be treated that way. Education should be a basic human right for all people. We are excited to be releasing a music video that will spotlight the power of education and the severe lack of access to schools in Ethiopia." – Trevor Young

Downhill all the way: an autobiography of the years 1919-1939
Hogarth P., 1967 - Biography & Autobiography - 259 pages
Leonard Woolf's recollections of his life with Virginia Woolf during the years when she wrote her major novels; also an account of the growth of the Hogarth Press, as well as portraits of Sigmund Freud, T. S. Eliot, and others. "There is a lucid probity in Leonard Woolf's writing" (Leon Edel, Saturday Review). Index; photographs.

Again Woolf presents his life sometimes with the most minute details and with that same air of detachment as in the earlier volumes of his autobiography. Despite his seeming transparency, I had the sense of him holding back as much as he was giving. Read full review

Twenty years of living with madness, brilliance, anti-Semitism, and odd-man-out'ism. Surely Leonard amassed sufficient points with the literary gods to spring Ted Hughes? If he hadn't parked himself alongside Virginia's pyrotechnics, his personal brilliance would have seemed much brighter. Read full review

Planners get public feedback on zoning amendments
Monday, February 4, 2013
DOVER — The Planning Department held its first of two charrettes on Saturday, where feedback was sought from the public, which will be used to draft zoning amendments.
"There was good feedback about transportation concerns, pedestrian safety and the need to look at diversifying uses along Central Avenue, but limiting new commercial uses on Sixth Street and portions of Silver Street," he said. "A lot of discussion surrounded safety on Portland Avenue and Sixth Street."
A Planning Board review will occur in June 2014, where proposals will be voted on.

General Motors issued an apology to families of accident victims who were sent notices about the extensive recall of vehicles due to defective ignition switches.
2.6 million GM cars have been recalled to replace a defective switch that has been linked to at least 13 fatalities, though federal regulators now say they believe that the death count may be low. Families who lost loved ones in fatal crashes argue that it was insensitive for the manufacturer to send them notices to bring their cars in for the repair, reports Reuters.
"We are deeply sorry to those families who received a recall notice," GM spokesman Greg Martin told Reuters.
16-year-old daughter Amber Marie Rose was killed in a 2005 Maryland accident involving a Chevrolet Cobalt. Her mother, Terri DiBattista, told Reuters she received two recall notices from GM last week asking her to bring in the vehicle to fix the ignition switch and power steering. The car was destroyed when Rose crashed into a tree.
Rose has been identified as one of the 13 victims GM links to the faulty switch.

We are the proud parents of a new Sar Major Camper Trailer... unfortunately due to our babe coming down with gastro and then passing it on to Mum and Dad (thankfully big sis hasn't caught it .... yet) we had to cancel our inaugural trip to Melbourne and hubby had to fly solo instead. Vision of a gastro filled car and camper didn't sound fun!
Anyway, we are wondering about insurance for the trailer. Would this come under house insurance whilst garaged at home or would it come under the car insurance or under its own?
Also what is the best way of securing the trailer whilst at home or on the road?

(CNN) -- Ramping up background checks on gun sales, which is regarded as the gun control measure with the best possible chance of gaining congressional approval, is by no means a sure thing, a key player in gun legislation negotiations said Sunday.
Sen. Tom Coburn, who is among a bipartisan group of four senators working behind the scenes on a bill to expand background checks, said a sticking point had emerged on whether to keep records on gun owners.
"I don't think we're that close to a deal," the Oklahoma Republican said on "Fox News Sunday." "There absolutely will not be record-keeping on legitimate, law-abiding gun owners in this country. If they want to eliminate the benefits of actually trying to prevent the sales to people who are mentally ill and to criminals, all they have to do is to create a record-keeping. That will kill this bill."
Coburn, who maintains an A rating with the National Rifle Association, is joined in his group by Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Illinois; Sen. Joe Manchin, D-West Virginia, a longtime advocate of gun rights; and Chuck Schumer, D-New York, a longtime supporter of gun control.
The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont, was adamant Sunday that expanded background checks would not include provisions to register gun owners, but he said that responsible Americans looking to purchase firearms shouldn't fear robust checks.
"They check to see if you told the truth, and then it's cleared out," Leahy said of the current background check system, adding later that measures to register gun owners would not be part of Senate gun control legislation.
"It's not going to be registration," he said on CNN's "State of the Union," adding that Republicans and gun advocates need to "lower the rhetoric and talk reality."
"I'm a gun owner. A lot of people in my state of Vermont are gun owners. But I know last time I went in to purchase a firearm, I had to go through a background check. I didn't have any problem with doing that," Leahy said.
At the beginning of February, sources in both parties told CNN the bipartisan group was making significant progress toward expanding background checks on gun sales, including requiring checks on private sales and closing the so-called gun show loophole.
However, the sources emphasized they were trying to work through the sticky issue in a fashion that made Republicans, particularly Coburn, comfortable that privacy concerns of gun owners were maintained. They also said any bill would include clear exemptions for situations where a background check should not be needed, such as inheriting guns from family members.
These talks are proceeding as Leahy holds hearings in the Senate Judiciary Committee and is working to find common ground on gun legislation that he can bring for a vote in his committee within the next month.

Thirst of Night Full Review
By M. Hauschel
Taking a cue from their last release, The Godfather: Seven Families, Kabam created a MMORTS with a similar gameplay. With impressive design and art esthetics, Kabam has created another well-orchestrated MMO that is visually pleasing as well as user-friendly.
Starting the Game
Creating an account is fairly simple. You're given a few choices that allow registration; you can create an account by signing up with your Google or Facebook account, or you can create a Kabam account.
Once you're past registration, you'll be prompted to choose a female or male general to serve as your advisor. There are no advantages from choosing one from another; they serve mainly as a visual cue.
Within the game you can join or create an alliance with other players. Depending on the alliance, they can provide other players with resources, weapons, and protection. It should be mentioned that when you start, for one week (7 days) you are under protection. As in, you cannot be attack by other players for a week. So, you're able to build yourself up with little fear of being bombarded by other vampire players.
Hunger for Power
With the help of advice from your general, they will guide you from quest to quest as your build your regime. The quests include constructing buildings, researching, training troops, plus a myriad of other activities. With each quest completed you receive resources and item in your inventory. These items can be use to speed up production of resources and increase attack damage of troops to other cities. The general provide a helpful tutorial in order to understand the layout of the game and where you focus needs to be in areas. In order to build your city into a empire, you're going to build a variety of buildings. The houses control the population limit; the more house you build the higher the population with be. Cash is no longer useful in the world vampires; platinum is used a dominance currency. You tax your population to collect platinum, but be careful not to tax them too much as it can lower moral and cause them to leave the city. To raise moral, the construction of a nightclub can make your city more appealing. Blood labs provide blood, to feed the population and train troops. Steelworks and concrete factories produce steel and concrete, which are needed for construction projects and research. Overall, a decent amount of each resource is needed in order to construct buildings, research in the Research Center, train troops, and level up buildings.
Feels like an Eternity
While there is a side game, Lilith's Luck, in which you match cards to gain items for your inventory, you can only play a few rounds before having to pay cash to continue playing. This is where is gets a bit tedious. It takes a great amount of time to upgrade buildings, research in the Research Center, and train troops. With the lack of options to occupy your time, your best bet is to just walk away and entertain yourself elsewhere. Although, when you do walk away from the game the resources will collect on their own while you're away. Depending on what you build or level up, these tasks can take a great amount of time. The game's premium currency is useful in this area if you want to build rapidly. You can purchase rubies that can be used to purchase lunar cycles with different amounts of time that can reduce wait-time. If you have the patience, it's not necessary to spend a dime in order to expand your regime.
Draw First Blood
Your objective is to dominate the world, but in order to do that you need troops. When you collect enough resources, you can train troops via the barracks in the city. Depending on how many you train at a time, and which type of troops you train, this can take as little as 53 seconds to several hours. Some types of troops require you obtain a certain level of area of expertise, researched from the Research Center. As you attack other rivals you collect items needed in order to create your very own gargoyle, which will serve as a protector of your city. In order not to remove your protection status in game, there are NPC gangs you can attack in the meantime. The NPC in the game are the fringe human groups living in the hills surrounding the cities. But once the protection status is lifted, you can attack (And be attacked) freely.
Picture Perfect
The layout of the game is straightforward, and incredibly easy to navigate. The shortcuts at the bottom of the screen and the left of the screen, allow you to access the most needed areas quickly. They make sense, intuitively, and are not clunky in anyway. While the game itself is not entirely too active, it is presented quite well. The vampire themes are sprinkled throughout the game, and are done successfully. The sound effects of actions match the theme and art-style. The music becomes repetitive, as it doesn't deviate too much. The interface is smooth, and provides gameplay with little hassle, while also being aesthetically pleasing.
Final Verdict: Good
Perfect for someone who cannot dedicate a lot of time in one sitting to a MMO. This is a game that can be played in small bursts of time. With an ever-growing community, someone looking for a social game would enjoy the PvP in this game. Fans of vampires and horror games will enjoy the theme and small details sprinkled throughout the game. While the Thirst of Night can become tedious and repetitive at times, it is makes up for it with the polished and user-friendly interface.

Lie Down in the Darkness, Rise up from the Ash
8. Shrive Me Graceless on My Path
How long the remainder of the Fellowship remained frozen in place, hardly able to accept that indeed, Frodo was gone, that their days together were at an end – and so horribly ended! – none could say with certainty. It seemed an eternity ere Legolas at last shook his fair head and glanced once more with concern at Boromir, who yet refused to meet anyone's gaze.
"Well, now must we decide our own paths," said the Elf. Still, no one moved, and the silence stretched on.
Aragorn, deep in his own thoughts, was aware of the leaden shock that still draped them, and sought a means to lift it, or at least to escape it for a time. But as his mind raced, his attention caught suddenly on a noise, as of many creatures moving through the forest. His head jerked up, and the others, startled by his sudden motion, looked up in surprise.
"Yrch!" Legolas was first to recognize the threat, and even as he rose, realization struck the others as well. Boromir grabbed his sword off the ground and stood, while Gimli laid his hands on the haft of his ax. The hobbits drew nearer their taller companions, and the remainder of the Company pressed close, facing outward in a defensive knot. Harsh voices cried out as the first dark shapes appeared amidst the trees, and then that fell company turned toward the remainder of the Fellowship.
"Curse the luck," Gimli grated, and left unspoken the concern that all shared: Frodo and Sam could not have gone so very far, and might still be at risk, especially without the protection that numbers offered. Aragorn and the Dwarf exchanged a grim look, knowing that whatever passed next, they could not allow the orcs to break past them without a fight.
Not that that seemed to be at issue, for their foes were streaming about them, cutting off all avenues of escape, calling to each other in their harsh tongue as they came.
"Moria again!" Merry groaned, gripping his Barrow-blade tightly.
The orcs yelled out a harsh war cry, and the Company braced itself as its enemies swarmed forward, surrounding the six of them. Boromir's horn blast startled them, and for a moment they hesitated, which let Legolas shoot four in swift succession. But such diversions could not save them: as the echoes died, the battle was joined in earnest as the orcs closed in from all sides.
If the orcs, however, had anticipated a quick and easy victory, they swiftly learned their error. Boromir and Aragorn, by unspoken agreement, stood directly behind each other so as to best exploit their greater reach, while Legolas bent his bow, with Gimli before him, axe in hand to give him room to shoot. Merry and Pippin huddled to either side of Boromir, determined to help their friends as best they could.
Thus when the orcs closed, they faced no confused assortment of warriors but found themselves repelled with brutal efficiency. Within the first few exchanges, Aragorn had acquired a shield from a fallen orc, and Legolas's bow thinned the ranks. Boromir, veteran of many campaigns, laid low any who dared approach him, and the haft of Gimli's axe soon was bloodstained. Even Merry and Pippin proved formidable as they fought to buy their friend and cousin time enough to escape….
And perhaps a half a mile away, just on the banks of the Anduin, Frodo and Sam went rigid as Boromir's horn call reached their ears, clear and defiant through the trees.
"But we only just left them!" Sam protested, looking back anxiously at the woods.
"Aragorn feared there were orcs on this bank," Frodo replied, and then turned quickly to the boats. Throwing his pack into one, he grabbed Sam's and, with a grunt, managed to heft it over the edge. "See to the other boats, Sam!"
"Sir?" The other hobbit frowned, uncomprehending for a moment. Then he sucked in a breath. "But won't the others – ?"
"Sam, whatever befalls them, they shan't need the boats again, but our enemies may realize what we have done and come for us if we leave them intact. It need not be anything fancy, just keep them from floating!" Frodo ordered, and began to drag their chosen boat off of the shoals and into the water.
Samwise watched him a moment, then drew his Barrow-blade with a sigh and went to work. It seemed wrong somehow to damage something that came of elvish hands, yet his master was correct. So as the sounds of combat drifted downwind to his ears, he resolutely began to cut through the bottoms of the little boats, a task which proved far easier than he would have guessed it to be. Perhaps, he thought, they knew somehow of his intentions and let themselves be mauled....
Nonsense, Sam, that's a bit of absurdity there! Boats don't think nothing. And yet, when he had finished, he felt constrained to bow politely ere he turned to join Frodo in the shallows.
"Well, it's done. But I can't feel right about it, nor about leaving the others like this," Sam said worriedly, glancing back at the lawn and the ominous trees. "Poor Merry and Pippin! Do you think they'll be alright, sir?"
"I hope so. They have Strider and Legolas to look after them, and Gimli and Boromir would never leave them. That I know, whatever else may be said," Frodo muttered, and then his mouth tightened as he clutched the Ring. "But we cannot concern ourselves with that now. If they live, then they must away to the end that awaits them."
"And if they do not?" Sam asked softly as they began to paddle out into the deeps.
"If they do not, then we must not let their deaths mean nothing at all!" Frodo grated harshly, hating to say so when he knew very well that the Darkness covered all and that hope, unless wholly unforeseen, lay smothering beneath that dreadful veil.
We must not look now for a final victory, he thought. I must take what small ones I can find, and if the others die to let us get only as far as the Black Gates or even the other shore of Anduin, then that must be counted as a triumph, however temporary. At least if they fall, it is an end for them, and a release.
The hobbits watched the eastern banks grow before them, and though Sam cast a final, regretful look back, the west seemed dim indeed.
Beneath the trees, blood sprayed hot, arcing in an obscenely graceful fountain as an orc fell back before Andúril, and immediately, another grim-garbed soldier leapt in to take his place. Though only a small number of their enemies could engage them at any one time, it seemed that the orcs waited for one of their number to fall, crowding each other in the hopes of having a chance at the Fellowship. They were hemmed in tightly now; so much so that Legolas, having put up his bow once more, had added a long dagger to his elven-blade and wielded both with graceful lethality as still, the orcs pressed in.
And though it was difficult at the moment to be thankful for such bloodthirsty determination, at least the group had not split into two to search the area in spite of the fight. Aragorn held that thought firmly in mind as he fought.
For however much they delayed the orcs, the Ranger knew that there could be but one outcome, for six against a hundred is not a battle to be won by skill and courage alone. He hoped indeed that Frodo and Sam were at least crossing the Anduin now, if not already upon the eastern shore….
Of a sudden, something whistled past his face, and as he jerked to one side, an orc's blade found its way past his defense, though he felt nothing.
"Archers!" Legolas cried, and Boromir cursed at the same moment. The company drew closer together, trying to find some shelter behind the shields that the two Men bore, but they could only retreat so far without hindering each other. Aragorn bounced a few arrows off the iron-rimmed roundel, and let the orcs close in a bit further. It was a risky maneuver, yet if he could hold them at a closer range, the archers might not shoot for fear of hitting their own.
Or they might shoot through them, he thought grimly, for he had seen that before, too, and some of these orcs were both unusually large and of a company he had never encountered hitherto. They were certainly more disciplined than those of the Red Eye, and Aragorn was surprised to catch a straight broadsword against his shield. But there were few options, and so he took his chances.
And surprisingly, risk seemed to pay in reward, as the arrows thinned on his side. And as time wore on and still they survived, surprise quietly became a wordless scrutiny, for Aragorn had fought too many battles to believe that the continued survival of the remaining Fellowship was due to their own efforts in such desperate straits. Hard-pressed as he was, still, it seemed to him that the orcs held back. Indeed, the orcs seemed… disinterested, almost, as if killing were not their first aim...
All such speculations flitted swiftly through his mind on a level just above instinctive, yet he grasped their implications and risked a glance to either side of him. He and Legolas and Gimli were struggling, yes, but the current of orcs told that their enemies' attention lay more upon Boromir… and then he felt his blood run chill.
Not upon Boromir, he realized, but upon those closest to him!
The Ranger spared a brief glance over his shoulder to where Merry and Pippin stood in desperate combat just as another rain of arrows poured down. Most struck Boromir's shield and fell harmlessly to the earth; others, indeed, hit orcs who stood too close; but a few found their way through and Legolas snarled as one grazed his back. And in that interlude, as the Company was forced to cover as best they could, the orcs charged in, bearing down on the hobbits. Aragorn found himself borne back by the press of his foes, until he collided with a beleaguered Gimli, and then Boromir, too, was shoved hard against him, cursing as a blade raked his flesh, making him falter a moment.
A moment was all that was needed.
"Merry! Pippin!" the Steward's son cried out, watching helplessly as the better part of their enemies broke away with the struggling hobbits in hand. Hard-pressed, he could do nothing but save his own life. More arrows rained down to cover the retreat, and Boromir ducked under his shield, cursing. Gimli staggered as one deflected off his hauberk, and it was pure good fortune that that misstep sent him under the swing of an orc's sword; Legolas howled an eerie, Sindarin war-cry and lunged, his blade finding a mark ere both he and Gimli retreated together to stand back to back against Aragorn and Boromir.
"We cannot win against even this many if the archers remain," Boromir said grimly, voice taut, and Aragorn shot him a hard look. The Man of Gondor met his gaze briefly, and a fierce, sad smile lit his face an instant. "Take care of them!"
And then, ere Aragorn could protest or question that command, with a bellowed cry, Boromir cut past the thinned ring of orcs, bludgeoning those in his path with his shield—and then he turned straight into the hail of arrows and charged the line of archers.
"Boromir!" Aragorn cried out after him, but it was of no use, and in the end, the Ranger knew that the other had the right of it. One of them had to deal with the archers if any of them were to survive, yet he who did so was unlikely to live. Struggling to do the work of two in their knotted defense, he caught a brief glimpse of the archers as they retreated before Boromir's onslaught, ere he had to attend the task at hand.
Without the deadly distraction of orcish arrows, the three remaining companions fought simply to hold their place, and as the orcs' numbers dwindled, their surviving foes drew back, unwilling to continue the fight. At last, Gimli, Legolas and Aragorn stood together in a wedge, and they gazed across the bloody field at the seven or eight orcs that hovered out of reach. For a brief interval, the two sides simply stared, and no one seemed willing to make the first move, whatever it might be. Suddenly, one of the orcs hissed, and Aragorn knocked the thrown dagger aside with his blade. But there came no fresh assault: the last few orcs simply fled, scattering into the woods.
Wary still, Legolas and Gimli stood silent a long moment, but Aragorn, after casting a glance round out of habit, darted forward, following in Boromir's path. He soon came upon the first of the bodies—a decapitated orc bearing the sign of the Red Eye—and he followed the trail of destruction some distance further 'til he came to a small clearing not unlike the one in which they had been assailed. Several orcs lay there, but he guessed that equally many had escaped to trail after their fleeing fellows. Arrows littered the area, buried in the boles of trees or dug into the ground; some were trampled and others splintered by the force of their impact.
Upon one tree, at somewhat less than a man's height, there was blood aplenty smeared in a gory trail down the length of the trunk… and nestled at its base was Boromir.
Aragorn knelt wordlessly at the other's side, letting fall the shield as his eyes flicked over the other's body, noting the cluster of arrows embedded just below his heart, in his stomach, shoulder, leg. The wood of the tree was scored, and Aragorn felt wrath and disgust flare hotly, realizing what he saw: He was done before this—they could have slain him, but they took their time, shot him at close range, and in the end they left him to die like a wounded beast! And yet, Boromir still clung to life, his breathing shallow and pained as the Ranger reached out and laid a gentle hand upon the other's shoulder. "Boromir," he called softly.
The dying man's eyes opened and focused with difficulty upon Aragorn's face.
"Tell… the others…'twas madness…." Boromir paused, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
"They know," Aragorn assured him.
"…'m sorry, Aragorn," the other whispered. "My… brother…father… they wait for… me. You must… tell them. Go! Save our people!" At that Boromir reached weakly and clutched the Ranger's arm, and Aragorn covered that pale hand with his own as he nodded.
"I will."
"Strange," Boromir gave a ghastly smile as he gazed up at the other, grey eyes beginning to dim. "'Tis so dark here! The Valar forsake us… but I would… would be forgiven nonetheless!"
"Then be comforted, for of me you need ask no pardon. Rest you gentle, my friend," Aragorn murmured, and drew the other into an embrace, wishing he could be certain that indeed there was nothing to forgive. But we are forsaken, as he says. What grace we find here must be of our own crafting first. Mayhap it will still be enough to move Nienna to tears!
Boromir's head rested against his chest, and Aragorn fought his own pain to shelter the other this first and final time. Ere long, he felt the hand on his arm tighten, and Boromir gave a soft gasp as if in surprise… and then there was silence, and Aragorn was left holding Boromir's still form, weeping quietly.
After a short while, he felt another's hands upon his shoulders as Legolas came and knelt beside him in wordless consolation, and he glanced up to see Gimli squatting on his haunches across from him. The Dwarf's dark eyes glittered and he murmured something under his breath in his own tongue ere he said, "A bitter end for us all!"
"Bitter indeed," Aragorn replied, seeking some measure of composure as he carefully laid Boromir down and glanced over his shoulder at Legolas's drawn face. "And we know not yet whether his sacrifice is in vain!"
"Think you that the orcs may have taken more than Merry and Pippin?" the Elf asked worriedly.
"I doubt it, given their behavior," Aragorn sighed. "Yet it would be foolish to be certain until we have seen what remains of our camp."
"And what of Merry and Pippin?" Gimli asked. "If the worst has happened, must we abandon them utterly?"
"Let us not look too far ahead," Legolas interjected ere Aragorn could respond. "We must see to Boromir first, for whatever our course after this, we may not simply leave him thus."
"Nor may we go far without having tended to you, Master Elf," Aragorn replied, and Legolas turned a startled look on him. "Even a glancing blow may slow you if there be poison on the edge of arrow or blade, or if the road proves long." The elven prince reached behind himself, as if suddenly reminded of the injury.
"I think it is not too deep, and the pain is not too severe," he replied. "Later will be soon enough for me, for we have other tasks to attend to."
"Well, let us be about them then," Gimli sighed as he rose and took his ax to hand once more. Eyeing the bloodied tree, he muttered, "At least we shall have a fitting bier!"
While Gimli busied himself with crafting a travois of sorts, Aragorn and Legolas gathered what they could from the bodies of the orcs. Arrows, at least, were not difficult to come by, and the Elf emptied an entire quiver into his own, frowning as he held one of the dark-feathered shafts up to his arm, measuring the length. The Ranger, in the mean time, stooped and picked up a helm, grimacing in disgust as blood dripped out of it and stained his hands. A red-flecked "S" rune, forged in white, stood out clearly against the dark metal, and Aragorn cast his gaze about, tallying up the number of orcs that bore the same symbol.
"Red Eye and White Hand," he said aloud, frowning. "I do not like this!"
"What think you of this?" Legolas called from the other side of the clearing, holding up a sword fashioned after a Mannish, rather than orcish, style: though the edge had been worked in a ripple-pattern, it was not a scimitar by any means.
"Some of the orcs in the other clearing bore similar weapons," Aragorn replied. "But that they are somewhat too short for most Men, I would say that they were stolen."
"Aye. These arrows, too, are nearly a match in length for my own," the Elf said. "And the bows are long bows, not the cross bows or short, hunting ones common to the orcs that plague Mirkwood."
"What make you of this mystery, then?" Gimli asked, joining them. "What are these orcs of the White Hand?"
"Here!" Aragorn lobbed the helmet at him, and the Dwarf caught it, gazing thoughtfully at the rune. "Saruman, it seems plain to me, is behind this. For Sauron's token is the Red Eye, and he has no need of any other. White, too, is not a color he would use, but we know well that Saruman is called 'the White.'"
"But there lie here and yonder also servants of Sauron," Legolas protested. "Why then do you guess that this is only Saruman's plan? And what was their intention in all of this?"
"That we shall have to discover, though I have my guesses already. This only will I say and stand by: the orcs of Isengard commanded this attack, though I cannot say whether Mordor's soldiery agreed to such leadership in advance or simply lost it to the great orcs. And we were not ourselves the object," replied the Ranger. "But now we must hasten! Let us return with Boromir now to the camp and see what may be seen."
Determinedly, but with dread anticipation, they made their slow and grim way back to Parth Galen.
A/N: Vocabulary lesson of the day: Shrive: verb. (noun = "shrift", as in "short shrift") The act of formally forgiving someone, usually connected to the Roman Catholic sacrament of repentance. In the bad old days, it was considered a Bad Thing to die unshriven and go to face one's maker with one's sins unconfessed and unforgiven by a priest. There's nothing equivalent in LOTR to an organized religion, but I think Boromir has an understated spirituality that comes out at the end. It's just too bad for him that at the moment, the Powers That Be in Arda seem not to be listening. Hence the "graceless" part of the title.

FLASHBACK: The Beatles Kick Off Their Final Tour
Monday, June 24, 2013
It was 47 years ago on today (June 24th, 1966), that the Beatles kicked off their final tour in Munich, West Germany. The tour, which saw the group performing in Germany, Japan, the Philippines, and the U.S., was plagued with controversy. In the Philippines, the Beatles, who had politely declined an invitation to attend a banquet with then-President Ferdinand Marcos, were virtually run out of the country for what the Filipinos believed to be a snub towards the first family.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., trouble was brewing after a statement John Lennon had made the previous spring in an interview with The London Evening Standard, during a philosophical discussion about religion, was taken out of context and printed in the U.S. teen magazine Datebook. The magazine, which printed Lennon's quote that "Christianity will go it will vanish and shrink. . . Jesus was alright, but his disciples were thick and ordinary . . . We're more popular than Jesus now," ignited protests, including record burnings all over the "bible belt" and southern U.S. states.
The Beatles held a press conference on August 11th in Chicago, the night before they started the U.S. leg, where, after trying to explain exactly what he meant in the interview; Lennon essentially apologized -- not for the statement itself, but for how it may have been interpreted. Death threats plagued the Beatles throughout the 14-date tour. Prior to the group's August 19th show in Memphis -- their only show in the south -- Lennon and the Beatles' manager Brian Epstein went to Elvis Presley's Graceland mansion seeking advice from Presley as to how to resolve the "bigger than Jesus" crisis. Presley, however, wasn't home -- he was in Los Angeles shooting a movie.
The tour dragged on through the States to still strong, but less-than-sellout crowds, where the group, already long bored with performing for screaming fans, lazily ran through a set which showed no sign of the experimentation heard on their Revolver album, which was released days before the tour began.
The group performed approximately a 30-minute set every night, featuring 11 songs: "Rock And Roll Music," "She's A Woman," "If I Needed Someone," "Day Tripper," "Baby's In Black," "I Feel Fine," "Yesterday," "I Wanna Be Your Man," "Nowhere Man," "Paperback Writer," and either "Long Tall Sally" or "I'm Down."
Paul McCartney says that the Beatles always felt that quitting the road would be a major turning point for the group: "I remember thinking a bit like Army buddies. One of the songs we used to love was 'Wedding Bells.' (sings song) And this idea that you'd been army buddies but one day you'd have to kiss the army goodbye and get married and act like normal people -- it was a bit like that. We knew that day would come."
The Beatles played their last public performance on August 29th, 1966 at San Francisco's Candlestick Park. McCartney, knowing that the show was to be the Beatles' last, captured the show on a portable tape recorder, which eventually has made the rounds of bootleg collectors.

6 Great Cyber Monday Deals
I love a good bargain, and seeing the letters S. A. L. E. hanging in store windows makes my blood rush. Still, I've never been the type to get out of bed before dawn and battle the notoriously aggressive Black Friday crowds. Instead I spend Thanksgiving weekend plotting a Cyber Monday offense attack. As more online boutiques begin to throw their "free shipping" hats in the ring, the deals continue to get better. Below are six of the best internet bargains a girl can find.
1. Amazon.com
This online emporium has so many incredible deals going on right now I can't even list them all. Instead, I suggest you double-check your gift list and head straight to their site.
The cyber destination "where fashion discovers jewelry" is offering 20% off anything on the site between 11am and 3pm EST. Oh yeah, and they're throwing in free shipping.
3. Gilt.com
The mega discount site will be launching brand new sales every three hours in all of their stores between noon and 9pm EST—plus their offering doorbusters for at least 70% off each round as well. If you're not a member, perhaps you should look in to it.
Is there anything better then a brand new pair of blue jeans? The denim purveyors are offering 30% off their entire site.
With graphic Ts starting at $4 and outerwear at $15, you can afford to stock up for every kind of winter weather scenario possible.
6. tarte.com

NVIDIA at BlizzCon 2013
BlizzCon is one of the highlights of the year for North American gamers with thousands of attendees converging on the Anaheim Conference Center for 2 days of gaming, cosplay, e-sports, panels and events culminating with a Blink-182 concert.
NVIDIA were there in force to show the highest possible graphics experience with Blizzard titles such as World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2 and Diablo3.
G-Sync makes games play better by allowing the GPU to update the screen at the optimal time rather than being constrained by the 60Hz legacy that traditional monitors use. This results in less input latency and a smoother experience with no tearing. It's one of the most exciting innovations for real time graphics in recent years.
Saving and sharing videos of game play is a big deal these days especially with the Blizzard crowd. ShadowPlay uses the Nvidia hardware video encode and data transfer to allow video capture with minimal impact on performance. At Blizzcon, attendees got a chance to record their own avatars dancing and capture their best moves in ShadowPlay.
To find out more about G-Sync and ShadowPlay click here.
4k Ultra High Resolution Gaming
World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 all natively support 4K resolution and looked stunning in our booth throughout the show. This was the best graphics experience possible for these titles and was a stunning treat for the Blizzcon attendees.
When 4K isn't enough!
NVIDIA showed a 3 screen 4K surround set up running WOW at the event. That's 25 Megapixels for those counting. This system was a Falcon Mach V with 3 GTX Titans. Crazy stuff!
Gamers check out tech at the NVIDIA Booth
The Cosplay contest this year was amazing

Discussion in 'WIP and Development Status' started by Samkio, Oct 23, 2011.
Is that a sing block of wood floating in air, or a really massive detailed "tree" over a river?!
Both and neither at the same time.
You happen to fiddle with any tree's at all?
Will it be possible to add our custom creations made with Techne ?
@Astaen Techne?
An amazing Minecraft modeling program. Google it.
Would love to help dev this
Moar Tree's I'll get working on them when I can..
If you need any extra dev help or building Just pm me.
WOW! Why haven't I heard of this before¿ I've been looking for a long time for somehing that adds items and ores i'm following this, and i can't wait for release
omg, you are too good !
i think i like this plugin!
So you're basically going for what Spout devs intend to do, but using the stuff they already got implemented? Awesome, should be sooner, putting you on the watch
Spout doesn't support custom Entities yet.
MoarStuph will add new mobs before custom Entities are supported. :3
how's that possible if they are not supported?
also, how did you learn java?
To both your questions:
But seriously:
I had an idea on how to add new mobs into the game. You'll have to wait and see how it is done.
I'll hint: New mobs such as, Boars, Ducks, Rats possibly Bears etc.
And how did i learn Java? I just knew it. :S
Samkio is just that pro.
Are you creating a addon to add mobs¿
There's a selection cube around it, its a floating block.
Nope no addon required.
How will we render them then? ;S
EDIT: This is custom mobs with their own AI, health drops etc. (Not your skin hack xD)
Also go on skype some time...
I am on skype xD I'm on it now. I need to invite you into the skype chat. You need to add me. :3
I need mb's skype too. You guys aren't in IRC anymore so the communication been blah lately :/
Have you added me? I can add you to the skype convo then.
You can add me too <3; since we stopped using IRC
Can you please release a Dev. build¿ I want to see how far this plugin is already finished
So I heard Spout updated so you can continue development on this......
NOPE. Chuck Testa.
Souns just like different skins ;D
Will this be compatible with GuildCraft¿ I see the silver ore has the same texture as the silver ore in Guildcraft.
I've re-textured all the ores to be very unique and different then what is posted there. So you don't need to worry about texture clashing with any existing ore modifying plugins from what I've seen to date.

Wonderful blinds

Too new to know whether will be difficult to clean, but LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the blinds
So happy I found these blinds!!
By Mary

Had to match blinds from bottom windows that were put in 15 yrs ago! Top windows had no blinds. I can't believe how close they are. Thanks to all the samples you sent me I found the perfect match!! They look beautiful! And you definitely had the best price! I had never heard of this website before. But I will certainly use you again! Thanks so much!
I love this product!!!!
By Dana the violin instructor
from Wichita, KS
I love these shades! I saw them at a friend's home and knew that is what I wanted. Buying from Steve's was SO simple and the sales people were extremely helpful and courteous. I needed blinds to minimize direct light but only diffuse it - not block it all out. I am a violin instructor and the direct light was, at certain times of the day, getting in their eyes. These work great, and are beautiful! I have a full sized grand piano and teach in our living room. A beautiful touch.

About Me High-end Shopper
I ordered 5 shangri-la shades, and 4 were perfect,but one was short in length. [...]Unfortunately the new shade came in with the wrong color headrail. I'm sure Steve's Blinds will take care of this problem. My only issue is the inconvience of getting the new one installed.I have been a decorator for 15 years, and this is the 1'st time I used "Steve's Blinds", I do recommend them, and will use them in the future.
Very Pleased
By Happy Homeowner
from Milwaukee, WI
I have the Hunter Douglas Silouette blinds on 3 of our oversized windows in our living area. I didn't want to spend the $1000+ for Hunter Douglas for our large bedroom windows and so I gave these a try. For $600 savings, these look almost identical and I've been very pleased with them. There is a very slight difference in the sheer material but they are equally pretty in my opinion. I'd call myself very particular and I'm every bit as happy with these as I am with the HD Silhouettes. They were very easy to install as well if you are the least bit handy. Only negative, they aren't quite as energy efficient as the Honeycomb blinds we replaced with these.

Teva appears to be weighing transformative deal, says Bernstein
After attending Teva's (TEVA) meeting with investors, Bernstein thinks that the company is considering making a 'transformative' acquisition, although it believes that such a deal may not be imminent. The firm sees Mylan ((MYL) and the generic units of Actavis (ACT), Pfizer (PFE), and possibly Valeant (VRX) as the four logical candidates. It says that Teva can pay $81 per share for Mylan, and that a takeover of Mylan would raise Teva's EPS to about $6.50 in 2017 and $7 in 2018. Bernstein raised its price target on Teva to $69 from $60 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares.

Pfizer hits best level in over decade after Jefferies adds to list of best ideas
The shares of Pfizer (PFE) are rising after an analyst wrote that the company's shares are poised to rise significantly over the next one to two years. Additionally, the company announced that it would resume developing its painkiller, tanezumab, in partnership with Eli Lilly (LLY). ANALYST OUTLOOK: Pfizer's breast cancer drug for postmenopausal women, Ibrance, has had one of the best launches of any oncology drug ever, Jefferies analyst Jeffrey Holdford wrote in a note to investors today. A survey of U.S. oncologists conducted by the firm shows that the doctors expect the drug to be used on about 50% of patients needing first line hormonal therapy within one year, while the drug will be used as an off-label treatment in all lines of therapy, the analyst wrote. The drug will generate revenue of $5.5B in 2020, versus the consensus outlook of $3.3B, Holford estimated. Meanwhile, the drug maker's Global Established Pharmaceutical, or GEP, business' revenue and profits should top consensus estimates by14% by 2018, according to the analyst. Pfizer could generate value through accretive M&A activity and by separating the GEP unit by 2017, Holdford stated. He raised his price target on the name to $45 from $42, kept a buy rating on the shares, and added the stock to the firm's Franchise Picks list, which encompasses its best ideas. WHAT'S NOTABLE: Pfizer announced that, in partnership with Eli Lilly, it would resume its Phase 3 clinical program for tanezumab. The announcement was made after the FDA removed a partial clinical hold on the drug, Pfizer noted. As a result of its decision, Pfizer expects to receive a $200M payment, in accordance with the companies' agreement, Pfizer stated. PRICE ACTION: In mid-morning trading, Pfizer climbed 2.4% to $35.08. The stock has not traded at a price per share this high since 2004.
Pfizer rallies to fresh 52-week high, levels to watch
Shares are up over 2.8% at time of writing to $35.14, just below the new 52-week high at $35.26 which is now initial resistance. Next resistance above is at $35.89 and then at $36.63. Support is at $34.89.

Pfizer, Eli Lilly to resume Phase 3 chronic pain program for Tanezumab
Pfizer (PFE) and Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) announced that they are preparing to resume the Phase 3 clinical program for tanezumab. As a result, Pfizer expects to receive a $200M upfront payment from Lilly in accordance with their collaboration agreement. This announcement follows a decision by the U.S. FDA to lift the partial clinical hold on the tanezumab development program after a review of a robust body of nonclinical data characterizing the sympathetic nervous system response to tanezumab. The data were submitted to the FDA in February. In the prior clinical studies of more than 11,000 patients, tanezumab demonstrated clinically meaningful efficacy vs. placebo and other select commonly used pain medicines. A partial clinical hold has been in place for tanezumab and all other anti-nerve growth factor antibodies since December 2012 due to adverse changes in the sympathetic nervous system of mature animals. Studies in terminal cancer pain were allowed to proceed.

Pfizer should rise 'significantly' over next two years, says Jefferies
Jefferies analyst Jeffrey Holford told investors this morning that he expects shares of Pfizer (PFE) to appreciate "significantly" over the next two years. A survey of U.S. oncologists indicated the company's Ibrance drug will be used in 50% of first line hormonal therapy within one year, with off-label use in all lines of therapy including adjuvant, Holford noted. He thinks peak sales of the drug could top $13B, which is well above consensus. In addition, the analyst views Pfizer's Global Established Pharmaceutical business as being underappreciated by the market. Potential value creating options for the pharmaceutical giant include spinning off its GEP unit by 2017 and accretive acquisitions, with possible takeover targets being Shire (SHPG), Actavis (ACT), AstraZeneca (AZN) and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), in the eyes of Holford. He added the stock to the firm's Franchise Picks list, which encompasses its best ideas. He also raised his price target for Pfizer to $45 from $42. The stock closed Friday up 10c to $34.25.

I don't know about you but I am a fan of ancient type games. You know those mummies, dragons or ghosts or stuff like that which don't exist in this world? So as you know by now that I am a gaming addict or you can just call me a gaming fan. Recently I came across a rather excellent ancient game named dragon city.
Dragon City Game is one of the most famous Facebook game built on ancient non existent thing like Dragons. The game has been developed by a famous game development company called Social Point. These guys have got to be super rich as there are 10 million players now. Even though the game had hit it's peak, there is still a lot of players playing it.
This is a game where you'd start with your own dragon, feed it, grow it and take it to fight other dragons in combat and tournaments. In this game you also have to breed different dragons to get new unique dragons which will obviously have special powers. Check out this quick dragon city breeding guide.
You earn gold in the game through dragons, so the higher the level of dragon, the more you earn. To level up the dragon, you feed it through food made in food farms. You expand your territory to hold more dragons by buying off different islands. An interesting concept of the game is combat, where you fight different dragons using your skills and strategies.
Now that I have discussed about ancient games, there is another interesting game I want to discuss about. But before I go into that game, I am looking at giving some health tips to you gamers as sometimes gaming can be very time consuming and if you are going to play games like that, you may as well require some good education advice which is available at India Edu Portal website.
Are you a fan of role playing games? I remember my school days when I was really mad and crazy about role playing games. In a role playing game, you get to play as someone else which grows stronger and bigger with time. It used to be so much fun. Those days such games were only possible in a computer but now even a simple smart phone can play role playing games like these.
Today we are going to discuss about a game called Brave Frontier which is developed by a Singapore based company called Gumi Inc. Now this game is really incredible. I played this game recently and it totally blew my mind and reminded my again my those days when I used to be addicted to such games. Here is a quick brave frontier guide for you. It is basically a game where you try to evolve your characters, level them up and go on a war.You can fight other players of similar levels as yours or you can go hunting monsters in the town which is full of them anyway. Most of these games have a similar approach. You start in a town which is attacked by monsters and so you and other players take up the task of killing the monsters which are attacking your town.
Overall, it is a really fun game to play. There are wide variety of different possibilities you will explore in this game. I am already at level 25 in the game, so go start and catch me.
