• Sterling silver and brass overlay reversible charm with snap hinge bail
• Gold mother of pearl and purple spiny oyster floral design on other side
• Measures approximately 1-1/4" long x 3/4" wide
• Designed and crafted in America with gemstones from around the world
The design of this charm was inspired by the time Carolyn spent in Washington state during her Summer Across America tour. This fully reversible charm features the luster of gold mother of pearl accented by purple spiny oyster in a floral design. The reverse side features the same design in brass with a sterling silver overlay.

Modern design with traditional inspiration. Purple spiny oyster and green turquoise pay tribute to the earth and the sea, and the breathtaking color of the sun is represented by gold mother of pearl. Traditional symbols of the sun and everlasting life are given stunning contemporary styling.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

My Daughter Alexannedx: 2 years old (2002)She is now 12 years old (2012)
In 2002 my daughter Alexanne (pictured above) was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of two. Within the next seven years, between finger pokes and insulin injections, she had been stuck/poked over 24,000 times. The day before her 9th birthday she was put on an insulin pump which she wears 24/7. We searched for a comfortable case she could wear around her waist to carry her insulin pump in... What we found was NOT very appealing to children. We found solid colors like black or blue, but what fun is that for a kid? It's NOT... and they were not made to withstand the wear and tear of an active kid wearing them 24/7 which would include sleeping in them.
So, I went to the fabric store, bought some FUN fabrics, got out my sewing machine, and away I went... Several trial runs and many mistakes later, I created an insulin pump case that my daughter loved.
In late 2009, I started my online store www.mypumptastic.com and with the help of my wonderful Mother, we now have three different styles of cases to choose from... The SIDE*KICK, The BAND*IT, and The C*PAK. We have many Fun fabrics for kids to choose from along with designs adults will love too. We also have a small selection of silicone medical bracelets called D*BANDS.
Now there's a Fun and Stylish way to wear and protect your insulin pump. Being Diabetic is Hard!EVERY DAYwe HOPE for a CURE, but until thenPump*tastic willcontinue to makes Type 1 a little FUN!!!

Noah, FloridaAge: 3 years oldDx: 22 mo old
Hi! My name is Noah and I'm three years old. I live in Fort Myers, FL. I love to play trains with my little brother, ride my tricycle, and learn at Sunday school! I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 22 months old. I got my pump a few months after my third birthday, but mommy noticed a problem... It was very difficult for me to be a big boy and use the potty by myself with a pump attached to my pants. The rugged pump pack mommy got for me has been perfect! Thank you for making mine (and mommy's) life a little easier in this Type 1 world!

Michelle Lynn Blain
On Nov. 4, we awoke to the sad news Michelle Lynn Blain had died peacefully in her sleep at her home in Lake Arrowhead. She was 51 years of age.
Shelley was born in Inglewood, Calif. Sept. 22, 1961 and attended school in Long Beach, graduating from Milikan High School. She went on to college at University of Iowa and finished her doctorate degree in Pharmacy at USC. She then went on to Pepperdine University where she obtained an MBA in Business.
She was united in marriage to Steve Hupp and to that union her daughter, Jade Alexandra Hupp, was born.
She worked in the health care industry for several years and started and ran her independent pharmacy in Lake Arrowhead until death.
Shelley was a charismatic soul. She loved travel, learning new things, rock and roll, and running off on adventures. She always thirsted for knowledge and had a hunger for books that was never satisfied. She was very philosophical and always searched for her next grand adventure. She loved outdoor sports, especially snow and water-skiing and she had a very competitive attitude and always challenged the boys to keep up with her.
Shelley is survived by her daughter, Jade Alexandra Hupp Shedd, and Jade's husband, Jace, of Brea; brother, Mark of Bishop, and his daughter, Breanne, and son, Tyler, of Henderson, Nev.; mother and father, Larry and Martha Blain of Bishop; grandmother, Josephine Blain, aunt, Mary Ann and husband Neil Toland, uncles, Richard and wife Marie Flynn and Lynn and wife Marsha Blain, all of Iowa; and many cousins and family friends.
A funeral mass will be held at 10 a.m. Friday, Nov. 16 at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church on Home Street in Bishop. Father John Gracey will officiate, and burial will follow at the East Line Street Cemetery. Visitation will be held from 5:30-8:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 15 at Brune Mortuary Chapel in Bishop.

Created in 1979, RASFF enables information to be shared efficiently between its members (EU-28 national food safety authorities, Commission, EFSA, ESA, Norway, Liechtenstein, Iceland and Switzerland) and provides a round-the-clock service to ensure that urgent notifications are sent, received and responded to collectively and efficiently. Thanks to RASFF, many food safety risks had been averted before they could have been harmful to European consumers.
Vital information exchanged through RASFF can lead to products being recalled from the market. A robust system, which has matured over the years, RASFF continues to show its value to ensure food safety in the EU and beyond.
The RASFF portal features an interactive searchable online RASFF database. It gives public access to summary information about the most recently transmitted RASFF notifications as well as search for information on any notification issued in the past.
Europe is more than ever reliant on RASFF to ensure that our food meets some of the highest food safety standards in the world. To mark the 35th anniversary of RASFF, Commissioner for Health, Tonio Borg delivered a press statement on 13 June 2014 to explain the importance of its role in ensuring that food safety risk in Europe are averted or mitigated. Besides its main role of ensuring food safety, the 2013 RASFF annual report shows that it is a crucial tool to trace back and withdraw products where fraud was detected
See latest RASFF Annual Report 2013
Since June 2014, consumers can also use a new tool - the RASFF consumers' portal - which provides latest information on food recalls and public health warnings in all EU countries.
Access the RASFF portal
Access the RASFF - information for consumers
The European Commission has created the RASFF database to keep its information as transparent as possible to the consumers, business operators and authorities around the world. In doing so, however, it needs to strike a balance between openness and protection of information that could lead to disproportionate economic damage (learn more in the Disclaimer).

Larry Nolen expressed it very well recently in his blog entry:
"Rarely does a month go by on the fora that I frequent that I don't encounter some crude attempt at "placing" a particular story, particularly epic fantasies. I will see earnest people putting forth arguments that basically claim that "dark" and "gritty" fantasies are a relatively new occurrence, arising during the past 10-15 years. Rarely is there any real understanding presented of the fantasy literature produced any earlier than that person's own childhood it seems; I rarely see discussions of pre-1977 fantasies, especially those of the epic variety. For those readers, fantasy (particularly epic fantasies, considering the type of fora that I visit most often) seems to be divorced from any sense of history."
Even if you stick to post 1977 works, it can get kind of frustrating to deal with fans who believe that dark fantasy and urban fantasy were invented in the 1990's, that paranormal romance is a new thing, that there never were any post-industrial alternate world stories until China Mieville came along, etc. You have a lot of fans who talk about George Martin without having any real idea of his considerable writing career before Song of Ice and Fire came out and how that's effected his writing of the series.
But these fans are no less enthusiastic about fantasy and reading than I am. And their opinions about different books are no less interesting to hear about and discuss. It's only when someone starts making erroneous statements about the field or its history to back up their opinions, or starts claiming that fantasy fiction is a certain way or should be a certain way because someone told them that was the case, etc., that I start frothing at the mouth.
But that's reality. Most people keep their attention on a very narrow range and don't notice anything else until it gets really big and loud and right there in their face, at which point they tend to see it as a "new" thing. We've got too much data coming in and category fantasy now has a lot of history and more titles all the time. I can't keep up with it all and I don't expect anyone else to do so. (Though it wouldn't hurt people to check out certain claims before making them.) I don't think we really need a hierarchy of fandom.
But I do feel for the older authors, as I've said before, who have to put up with fans basically saying that what they did in the past never existed and how fantasy authors are shiny and special now and the older ones were all mostly crap in the past. (Which is particularly funny since the wholesale market allowed mid-list authors in the past to sell copies in numbers that are only racked up by best-sellers today, with far less publicity effort.) I imagine it gets a bit wearying to them to deal with fans who consider themselves Masters and yet have no clue who these seminal authors are. (Not that they don't still have large followings.)
But that people still do want to try, that it's important to them, that they talk about the books on the Internet and go to cons and support SFF films, graphic novels, etc., I think that's all great because it's what I love too. And I want more people to try stuff out; they do not have to be as obsessive as I am about it. They just have to put up with me occasionally frothing at the mouth.

I must surely be a novice. I have no idea who John Clute is. If he is responsible for perpetuating what is apparently the current conventional view of fantasy, he can probably be safely dismissed as having any interest for me. I can claim though to have read fantasy no one here seems to bring up. Exotica like the Berenstein Bears, Curious George, Babar, and a choose your own adventure book even though it frightened me terribly how often the character met some grisly fate. I've also probably read more stories involving magic dumplings and magic mangoes than most (Dahl's James and the Giant Peach original? Hah!) and I wouldn't be surprised if I'm familiar with at least one fantasy classic that would leave a sage stumped. That said, what one is familiar with does not mean much if one is unable to interpret it, so it doesn't really matter how much one has read if one cannot say something new about it.
August 10th, 2010, 03:10 PM #49
Of the three, I think Barbar is the most interesting and certainly the most political.

It's interesting how your brain can compartmentalise information, isn't it? I know Babar well (read the books as a child), but wasn't a fan. I've been more partial to the Moomins, myself.
I never heard of Curious George until I hit the internet, and this is the first I heard of the Berenstain Bears (I googled). I guess, I'm betraying my European vantage point, here.
Me, I'm a dabbler. I've read widely, but not deeply. I do have a scholarly background with the theory and history, though. (And I'm probably one of the few people here who buys Bond's hypothesis that Sir Walter Scott is more fundamental to modern fantasy than Tolkien. Tolkien [his influence at any rate] came way too late.)
Finally, to even take an interest in Clute you have to reach scholar status. Unless you're talking about his fiction, which nobody in the thread here was talking about, I think. And while I have no idea what the "current conventional view of fantasy" is, Clute is likely not responsible for it. He's a very inclusive reader (I think, I remember his SF encyclopedia including stuff like Hermann Hesse's Glass Bead Game).

I think I'll likely be a Journeyman for life. For me, any kind of deeper immersion would likely take some of my enjoyment out of reading fantasy.

KatG, I missed your recent "froth" until now . I certainly empathize, although hope I didn't give the impression that I am looking to create a "hierarchy of fandom." I was simply curious about the amount of knowledge of the field the participants of this forum have. Like you I try to have a broad understanding of the field, a historical context and idea of the plethora of authors, although the breadth of my reading is relatively limited. These days--with family, busy job, my own writing--I only have time to read half a dozen or so novels a year. I wish I could read more and am trying to up that to about one a month or more, but it is hard. Right now I'm trying to go back through the couple hundred un-read books I own and read the classics that I never got around to (I'm currently reading The Dispossessed).
Babar? Curious George? Nah. I'm more partial to Frog and Toad--that's some good stuff, and wise too.

Liked it enough to buy it, but cannot pretend that it doesn't smell like a less overpowering version of a home freshener I'd used at some point of time. What matters is that they don't (I think) make a less overpowering room freshener, so I do not regret buying this bottle (to wear of course, not freshen the rooms). Was planning to wear something light and subtle, and almost went for Bvlgari Pour Homme, but procrastinated on deciding and ended up with this.

I would call this Rose Poivree's younger cousin. Light, playful, soapy and not a hint of sweetness in amongst all of the flowers. I would like those lovely peachy top notes to linger longer, but then again it might not be the same fragrance if it did. Ellena does osmanthus so well, doesn't he?

For $20 a month, you can help one child after another escape a life of horror.
Each month you'll help exploited children find hope and new life. World Vision-funded recovery centers offer resources like safe shelter, food, health care, and trauma recovery assistance for girls and boys who have faced abuse. We also advocate for the protection of these children at both the local and international level.

Hello everyone !
I have recently installed the resources required to get started with developing gaming applications for the S40 platform (full-touch). I am using the "Nokia SDK 2.0 for Java — for Series 40 apps ". I have developed applications for Windows Phone, Windows 8, BlackBerry (web-apps), etc before but I am relatively new to this domain.
I am trying to make a basic app with some UI like buttons, labels, input-text box, etc. I was wondering what are the best practices for this? I realize that in Eclipse we cannot simply drag-and-drop elements like windows applications, so a lot of code has to be manually written. I tried to get my hands on some demo projects, but couldn't really get a hold on them.
Some tips/resources at the beginning will save me a lot of time. Please provide any information that you feel may be useful to beginners like me.
Thanks in advance.

Baltic tops Cubs, Tigers
Alcester-Hudson's Friday visit to Baltic was one the Cubs would rather forget. The Bulldog destroyed the Cubs 65-31.The contest was close early on and the Bulldogs clung to a 14-10 lead after the first quarter. But in the second quarter, with a few of Edward Clark's 22 falling, Baltic outscrored Alcester-Hudson 14-3. The Bulldogs never looked back and coasted to the 34 point victory.
Clark also grabbed eight rebounds for the Bulldogs while teammate Josiah Aberson added 13 points and nine rebounds. Tom Sittig had five assists for Baltic.Earlier in the week, the Bulldogs were in Howard where they faced a tough Tiger team. A see-saw battle through the end, Baltic came out with a 48-45 triumph Tuesday night on the road.A resilient effort in the second half, Baltic faced a 35-30 deficit heading into the final frame, but managed to outscore the Tigers 18-10 in the fourth quarter to earn the win.Again, it was Clark who set the pace for the Bulldogs with 16 points.

Girl Scout cookies going to troops
Sunday, April 28, 2013
BEDFORD/PORTSMOUTH – Thanks to the generosity of cookie customers, veterans' groups, and Girl Scout troops, Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains loaded more than 1,000 cases of Girl Scout Cookies at their Bedford headquarters onto a moving van bound for Pease Air National Guard Base in Portsmouth April 24.
This year Girl Scouts in Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains, serving New Hampshire and Vermont, sold 1,333,567 packages of Girl Scout Cookies. All of the proceeds support local Girl Scouts. Girls earn Cookie Dough to use for camp or programs, troops earn a portion for their activities, and the rest enables the Council to offer hundreds of programs to girls each year, and day and resident camp opportunities.

NRC discusses concrete degradation at Seabrook Station
Wednesday, December 12, 2012
HAMPTON — Staffers from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission heard feedback from the public Tuesday night about efforts to study the concrete degradation issue at Seabrook Station.
Christopher Miller, the director of NRC's Division of Reactor Safety, was on hand to field questions from the public during an open house in Hampton Tuesday. About 100 people gathered at the complex at 1 Liberty Lane, where Miller was joined by Richard Conte, NRC's senior project manager, and NRC team leader William Cook.
Reviews by the NRC are ongoing. The most recent inspection by the NRC entailed three weeks of on-site inspections and four months of in-office reviews to assess the actions taken by NextEra Energy Seabrook, the plant's operator, to address the problem.
In addition, there was no indication that rebar had degraded, and the ASR reaction was progressing slowly, and limited to localized areas.
Diane Teed said the fact that the concrete condition went unnoticed until only two or three years earlier is a reflection of the inadequacy of the NRC's monitoring programs.
"We're putting the information out," he said.
In response, an NRC staffer in the audience said the evidence available indicates there are no problems with the quality of the concrete at Seabrook Station. The staffer said he's aware of conversations that came up in the employee allegation files during the mid 1980s, but declined to comment further. He said allegations are reviewed and addressed by the NRC.
Lessard said he believes the country will not be able to generate the amount of power it needs through means of alternative energy, such as solar power and wind power, alone, and that nuclear power must be incorporated into the mix.

First, thanks for the great response to the last posting.
Many of you want to lose weight and you're feeling overwhelmed. You don't want to hear "eat less — exercise more."
You know you have issues with eating, exercise and coping. You know that you need to narrow it down so that when you meet with your health expert you will get meaningful help. Drawing upon last week's blog, let's say you want to focus on portion control.
Studies have shown that if you struggle with controlling how much you eat, you may have been brought up to "clean your plate." You eat fast and don't know that you're full. And, because our environment "super sizes" everything we purchase at the grocery store, at restaurants, and at home, we unconsciously eat more. Furthermore, the types of foods most accessible to us are higher in calories — with lots of unhealthy fat and hidden sugar.
Your health care provider can help you identify which issues are most relevant to you. Beyond the knee-jerk advice of "eat less, exercise more" you and your health care provider will select a strategy that you feel will be most successful. These strategies include:
Eat more slowly. If your usual meal time lasts less than 30 minutes, chances are you are not giving your body the chance it needs to recognize that it is filling up. You are likely to be eating 200 or more unwanted calories by the time you end your day. Slow down by putting a watch or clock in front of you, putting your fork down between bites, chewing and savoring each bite, and eating without any other diversions like TV, newspaper, driving — make it a pure experience.
Eat more food — but foods that are lower in calories. I know you're thinking that if you eat for 30 minutes 3 times daily that you'll eat tons more calories. No. You also need to choose foods that are lower in calories but don't leave you feeling hungry and deprived.
Eat bigger, more filling portions of lower calorie food by emphasizing more vegetables and fruit, eat these foods before a meal; and make sure your plate is half filled with veggies and fruit, one-fourth filled with whole grains or starch, and only one-fourth filled with lean protein.
Re-size portions. If you are an overeater, you don't have a good idea what normal portions are like. It's not your fault, you need to adjust your perception from "super size" to a more normal size portion. Train yourself by using smaller plates, smaller spoons and smaller cups. Try preportioned, single-serve, healthy-type frozen meals only for several days (be sure to have a salad or soup before, a piece of fruit after, and an 8 ounce healthy beverage like skim milk, unsweetened tea or water). Purchase items in smaller packages — or repackage items into single serve zipper bags.
Deal with super-sized situations. These situations include restaurants, parties, office munchies, and even how you serve food at home. Be conscious of what you eat. Slow down and savor each bite. It is helpful to eat more of the lower calorie foods. Keep food as far away from you as possible — stand away from buffet tables, serve food in the kitchen and not at the table, ask for the bread plate to be removed, ask for the "doggie bag" to come with the meal and save half of your meal for later (or for the dog). Limit alcohol because it is not only high in calories, but it also stimulates appetite and weakens your will power.
These tips should help you focus your time and efforts, and your health care provider's ability to provide meaningful help to you. It's certainly better than hearing "eat less, exercise more."
Next week let's focus on the category of exercise. Are you a couch potato? Don't know how to begin an exercise program? Are you an all or nothing exerciser? Your success and the best advice will depend on you narrowing it down!
Keep sending me your feedback.

I need some encouragement to help me eat smaller portions. I was told that my obesety was due to inheritance. But In the last 20 years I have lost almost a hundred pounds and weighed close to 400 lbs. As of today I weigh 297 and it is just s terrible battle. Please help me learn some eating technies that you have written, Thank you
i'm doing a assigment for my food and nutrition class and i picked this clinic to be resource
i thinkthe mayo clinic diet s the way to go
you get all the nutrients you need and you eat very healthy
My husband just had coronary bypass surgery 3 weeks ago and we are going home tomorrow morning!! I was just looking at this site for heart healthy meals and I want to thank all of you who helped and all that post. This is going to be a real help for me as far as meal time goes. We are going to go to cardiac rehab also which will have some hutrition element also but I just figure that the more info I can find the better I will be cause we both love to cook! Fletcher and Melanie
I have been stuggling with my weight for 8 years. I know that portion control is my biggest problem. This article helped me tremendously. The examples of what a normal portion looks like was very helpful. 10 years ago I went to a doctor and received diet pills. The pills suppressed my appetite and I ate less. I lost about 25 pounds. I came off of the diet pills but did not have the information necessary to keep my weight off, I ended up gaining twice as much as I had lost. I just have to apply will power. Reading the other testimonies, helped me to see that I am not in this fight alone and that it is normal to stuggle but as the say little effort, little progress. I look forward to reading the next issue on exercise.
Hi, I live alone and even though I know what to do, I find it hard to maintain discipline simply because there is no one there to stop me from overeating.
I guess now is the time for me to learn how to be self disciplined. I am 35 years old and I feel terrible about the way I look because I'm so overweight.
A year and a half ago I lost 47 lbs. with the help and encouragement of my dietician. She has since gone into her own practice and I lost touch with her. I know she would be so disappointed that I gained all the weight back again.
I will try to consider your tips on portion size and slowing it down when I'm eating. looking forward to your post about exercise. Thanks
I agree with Roxanne B, I need help in meal planning. I find myself making the same thing every day, then I get bored, and lose my will power! I have tried Jenny Craig, but feel that frozen is not the way to go. There are too many preservatives and far too much sodium in ready made meals. Any suggestions? I've been thinking of going to a nutritionist, however they can be very expensive. I have about 20 lbs that I would like to lose. HELP! :-)
Everything you say is very true, the problem I have is that I don't have time for meal preperation, I need a menu to follow. Any suggestions
I have to say that your article truly speaks to where I am with portion and self control. Thank you for the concrete examples of where to begin in this journey! I also look forward to reading about starting an exercise program. Between both articles, it sounds like you must be with me every day or that you've known me forever :)
I work overnight, I sometimes go to work for probably 1 To 3 hours a day or I sleep. I don't feel that I eat properly. How to maintain a healthy eating with the schedule that I have? Also, can you please give me a meal plan that will go with my crazy schedule?
It's the day before Thanksgiving and your comments are just what I need to hear so I don't have to suffer remorse after dinner tomorrow. I'm going to 'learn' how to put down my fork between mouthfuls, starting tomorrow. And while I'm chewing, I want to relax and look around the table, enjoying my family and listening to them talk. I love to drink hot tea, and if I have a cup or two with my piece of pie, I'll be filled up and won't be tempted to have another piece (and another...). Happy Thanksgiving.

For more than 15 years, The Perlman Music Program has drawn students from all over the world. Students participating in the PMP Sarasota Winter Residency previously participated in a six-week PMP Summer Music School or two-week PMP Chamber Music Workshop on Shelter Island in New York, and many have performed in multiple concert appearances. Past residencies have included Israel and China and a variety of concert engagements, including performances for the Kennedy Center Honors, Live from Lincoln Center (TV broadcast), Mostly Mozart Festival at Avery Fisher Hall, Carnegie Hall, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Nadirim Overview
Nadirim is a free-to-play multiplayer browser game that uses the enthralling 1001 Arabian Nights fable as part of its storyline, which is rarely seen in traditional MMOs. Players embark deep into the desert wilderness where myths come to life. Conquer the great Djinns, encounter treacherous thieves, find magical lamps, fight gigantic sea serpents, earn treasures, and save the world. Complete arduous missions solo or with the help of friends. Duel other players to prove your name should be in the history books next to the other great legends of the past. In this exciting fantasy adventure slightly similar to Diablo, Runescape, and Ragnarok Online players get to become a hero in an epic fable re-told. There are only three starting classes available but as a player progresses, the Caravan Master and Nomad class can be unlocked.
Warrior – Skilled soldiers capable of dealing high levels of damage. They are equipped with heavy armor and an array of skills to take down enemies swiftly.
Sage – This class of magicians feature a wide range of spells and abilities. Sages can perform self and group healing making them perfect for team based melees.
Rogue – These fighters specialize in survival. Rogues execute critical direct hits that can quickly stop any enemy dead in their tracks.
Caravan Master – This special class collects slaves and uses them to fight their battles.
Nomad – Considered as part of the hunter class these wanderers possess the ability to control animals and summon them to aid in combat.

Nadirim Full Review
By Ange Perdu
Nadirim is a free-to-play fantasy browser based MMORPG by Twisted Tribe. Unlike most MMOs that often use Chinese Mythology for their storyline this game integrates an Arabian Nights setting. Players become warriors trekking through the desert wilderness stumbling across mythical beasts and legends. Fight a variety of difficult to beat monster mobs, face off with the legendary Djinns, thieves, retrieve treasure, and follow the ultimate path of a hero. Complete challenging quests while exploring various territories in the barren land. Players can initiate a duel or join a group of other soldiers to fight boss characters together. This rather original game features strategic turn based combat and beautifully hand-drawn graphics that almost make you forget that the game is entirely in 2D.
An Arabic Adventure Begins, the Gameplay
Players start out in Ennahar City with several NPCs stationed on the street corners. Clicking on an NPC will prompt either a mission or a brief conversation. There's not much of a tutorial but the simple interface makes it's easy to grasp the core concepts. The dialogue throughout the Nadirim appears in a very cool comic book-like design giving players the impression that they've entered a graphic novel that has miraculously come to life. It's somewhat similar to Runescape. Players click their mouse button to navigate through the world. Green arrows and icons on the map indicate what direction players should head. Most of the gameplay revolves around tackling various quests and helping out citizens in need. One of the first major quests that heroes must complete is to kill a gigantic octopus monster called Tinnin that has been terrorizing the townspeople. It's an exciting start to your adventure and sets the flow for the rest of the game.
Missions often vary from relaying messages to retrieving stolen goods from a gang of bandits. There's also a decent amount of interactive tasks that require heroes to pick up objects like scattered pages or pick special herbs located in the forest. Each mission has a set level of difficulty ranging from easy to hard and rewards range from XP to special items. Despite the absence of 3D effects the characters and scenic backdrops are breathtakingly beautiful. The immense attention to detail really makes the game stand out in terms of quality and production value. To complete some of the quests players have to fight certain monsters, villains, or boss characters. Some boss character battles feature a cinematic cut scene that plays. The well designed video is almost similar to standard client based MMOs. It's quite impressive. Clicking on monster or rival foe initiates an attack. All battles are performed using turn-based combat which can make the gameplay feel slow and repetitive at times.
The Strategic Combat Skills of a Warrior
During combat players appear on a honeycomb shaped grid with a preset hotkey of available skills at the bottom of the screen. Each turn allows an opponent to move and choose a specific spell or hit to execute. Heroes have a decent set of skill trees and techniques at their disposal as their character levels up. Warriors can make a Focused Strike, Ambitious Blow, Painful Cut, Cleave, or toss a Throwing Axe. The game doesn't feature any noteworthy battle animations. A bloody slash across an enemy or magical dust circle is about all you'll see. These turn based melees are somewhat similar to classics like Diablo. Heroes have to use strategy to maneuver through the grid and avoid damage while striking opponents. Sometimes a hero will encounter multiple creatures or foes.
There's a help icon that will allow any player passing by to join and aid you in battle. This friendly co-op option is rare. Not only is it a nice multiplayer aspect but it comes in handy as monsters become more difficult to beat. At any time a player can opt to duel another if they wish. However, dueling isn't a major part of the gameplay. Like most actions in the game dueling will cost energy. The energy system implemented in Nadirim can be tricky. Players have to develop their own strategy for managing their energy. Each quest and battle expels a certain amount. It's possible to lose a fight simply because your juice was a bit too low. Heroes have to monitor their health and energy closely to survive in this desolate land.
Merchant Traders & Gems
Players earn most of their gear through quest rewards and grinding but occasionally items can be purchased through one of the local merchant traders. These NPC shops only have a dozen or so items for sale. A few basic weapons for each class, generic clothing, and a handful of potions are available for in-game coins. There isn't much of a variety. However, customization is not totally lost. The marketplace has an assortment of different weapons, gear, boosts, and custom outfits. All marketplace items require precious gems which can be randomly earned during the game or purchased with real cash. Depending on a character's class they can be equipped with the Noran Twin Sabers, Malatrian Enigma Staff, Sylen Champion Shamshir, Grand Halberd, Panageos Totemic Scepter, and Edan Razor Flyssa as a weapon.
Armor like gauntlets, metal gloves, snakeskin boots, royal turban, enchanted vests, night cowls, thorned spaulders, ancient cauldrons, mirror, and shadow armor can be bought as well. To help speed up gameplay there are also an assortment of boosts ranging from prized energy potions to combat boosters that will increase damage or health for 20 minutes to 24 hours at a time. One of the best selections in the shop is the array of outfits that enable players to customize their hero's appearance. Dress your character in the Affarian, Ravenwood Hunter, Ceytelon Assassin, Arakk'Hatur, Dreamwalker Adept, Eel Catcher's, Emarian, Greenmore Botanist, Hollow Breacher, Molten Vanguard, and infamous Shadow Executioner Outfits.
Final Verdict: Good
Nadirim is a high quality browser based fantasy MMORPG where players embark on an Arabian Nights adventure. Conquer evil and determine whether the sun will shine or fade in the shadows by battling legendary myths like Djinns. Complete challenging quests or explore different territories slaying mobs of monsters. Wage war solo or with friends in intense turn-based battles. Cast powerful spells or perform bone-shattering blows in PvP duels. Although some players prefer 3D graphics the detail environments and comic book style design make this a visually appealing game. Nadirim has regular content updates and the potential to become a great MMO much like Ragnarok Online. The unique setting and strategic combat system makes it a fun challenge. It's definitely worth trying for anyone who enjoys playing browser games.
