For the longest time I've loved Dragon Quest and I'm always looking for an excuse to rant about it. Ever since this site has come up I've been thinking about countless new ways to rant about the series. But one thing lead to another and I've been busy for the most part. But now that it's Spring Break and I have nothing to do I figure now would be the best time to start. My plan isn't so much to review the games but to write an OVERview of the games. I'm not going to cover everyone though. Oh no, there are already some pretty good reviews on this site for some of the Dragon Quest games. But I plan to tackle the Erdrick trilogy since I figure that many people haven't played it and well it's the first three games so what better place to start than at the beginning? I might move on to the Zenithia trilogy since it has my favorite Dragon Quest game in it but we'll see where this review takes us. So now let's cover all the need to know info about one of the best things to come from Japan EVER!!!!
The Humble History
For those not in the know, Dragon Quest is an RPG series from Japan. It's the Bread and Butter for the gaming company Enix, who in April of 2003 merged with another big-time Japanese company Square and the company became Square Enix. Enix started out in 1972 and it's name was originally Eidansha Boshu Service Center. But that was changed to Enix in 1982. The new name Enix is derived from a word-pun (what else would you expect from Japan :D). The name comes from both the Fire Bird itself the PhoENIX and the world's first real computer ENIAC (It makes sense when you take in account the Japanese pronunciation of Enix sounds more like Enikkusu).
But back to the year 1982. That was a very big year for the company indeed. It's the year that Enix decided to take the company in a new direction and try it's hand at videogames. So that year they held a contest to see who could make the best PC game program and wouldn't you know it a young upstart by the name of Yuji Horii was one of the winners of said contest with his game called Love Match Tennis. Ah truly a man who made such a manly game is destined for great things. Oh and he was. Mr.Horii wold go on to accomplish great things and help put Enix on the Map.
One of Mr.Horii's earliest success was a game called Portopia Renzoku Satsujin Jiken. Which from what I've been told translates to The Portopia Serial Murder Case . This game is not only credited as one of the first ever Visual Novels ever made but also served as inspiration to another up-and-coming game designer in the industry. None other than THE Hideo Kojima the man behind Metal Gear was inspired by Mr.Horri's little game. Because of that Mr.Kojima felt that the gaming industry COULD be used to tell dynamic and epic stories. Which he was always writing since he was a young boy. So wow!!! Mr.Horii has already done the industry quite a big favor by helping to develop Visual Novels and inspire Mr.Kojima. But his work doesn't end their. The year 1986 is where the party really starts.
So is Anyone still Reading this?
Alright first I want to remind everyone that this is SUPPOSE to be about Dragon Quest and not about how awesome Yuji Horii is. And next I want to reassure everyone that we're coming back to Dragon Quest now don't worry. lol In 1985 Mr. Horii and his team at Chunsoft (a game developer that was founded by members from Enix that has a close relationship with Enix) began to make the game Dragon Quest. The original intent of Mr. Horii's little game was to introduce the world of RPG's the likes of Wizardy and Ultima to Japan which at the time was a very niche hobby there. On May 26,1986 the game was finally released to the world on both the Famicom (the Japanese equivalent to the NES) and the MSX (a home computer at the time had a pretty decent library of games). Mr.Horii stated that he wanted to combine aspects from both those series to make a his game. So we got the over-head view of Ultima on the maps and the 1st-person view of Wizardy in the fights. By copying and ultimately learning from the western RPG computer games Mr.Horii made one of the first ever console RPG's/JRPG's. Mr. Horii wanted a broad audience to be able to enjoy his game though so he tried his best to not follow along with the mythologies of series like D&D and instead opted to make his own worlds, and mythos, and monsters, and weapons, etc. The game was a hit and naturally it became a series.
Even though Mr.Horii wanted to avoid the mythos of the well-established series like D&D his stories certainly never strived too far from those series. At it's heart Dragon Quest is the told-over-and-over-again-story kind of series. But the series itself has such charm and is well-executed that I doubt it will ever matter. In short Dragon Quest's story isn't no edgy fight demons PERSONA story or go on awesome anime adventure TALES story. Dragon Quest managed to stay closer to those original RPG's from the west and focus on stories like saving the princes and defeating the Demon Lord for the ten millionth time. The story in Dragon Quest I is no different
Story-Time is When the Kiddies Fall Asleep
The story in Dragon Quest I is simple and easy enough to follow. You play as an unnamed character who you can name at your digression. The character (who will now be referred to as the HERO) turns out to be the descendant of a legendary Hero named Erdrick who saved your kingdom of Alefgard from the evil years ago. But now the Dragon Lord has stolen the Ball of light and has capture the Princess Gwaelin. The king beseeches the young HERO to take up arms and save his beloved daughter and put a stop to the Evils of the Dragon Lord. And with that the quest begins.
The HERO is then thrusted into a world of cute monsters that need slaying and a Princess that needs saving. But you know what the story is pretty awesome. It's Dragon Quest penchant for minor and NPC characters that make it work so well. Every character has something to say which is good because you'll need to listen to all the characters you can to figure out what to do. Plus of course the lovely Princess falls for the HERO. Besides being one the first console RPG's Dragon Quest is also one of the first RPG's to give you the player a moral dilemma. A decision that can ether save the world or end it. Can you believe that at the end of your journey when you encounter the Dragon Lord he ask the HERO to join him. AND YOU CAN!!!!!! If you join the Dragon Lord it's implied that together you two rule the world with an iron fist and enslave all of man. Than there's the more heroic route of turning him down. You don't end up the overlord of all of the world but by going this route you DO get the girl. And with the Dragon Lord slain the HERO and his love Gwaelin sail off into the sunset and into the next game in the trilogy!!! Quite an awesome story for 1986 I think. :D
So like . . . How's the Gameplay?
The gameplay in Dragon Quest I is pretty basic at it's core. The game works just like any standard RPG. You have to go to towns to buy materials needed for your quest, collect loot and exp by killing innocent monsters you randomly encounter and leveling-up to become stronger. So the game is old-school Ninten-hard for some people. It can be grueling and sadly it can be a little boring. The gameplay hasn't aged all too well. It's still solid and a fun RPG but it's just old. So for anyone who can't handle that I suggest you skip ahead. In fact I say skip this whole trilogy and go right into Dragon Quest IV on the DS. Players be warned this game is old, it's hard, and it's nothing special by today's standards in games. But for their time it was revolutionary. Dragon Quest I was one of the first console RPG's and it helped to establish many of the standards of gameplay we know and love (I hope) in our RPG's today. Anyone looking for a fun retro-RPG should definitely pick it up.
Music is my Thing
The music in the game is of course 8-bit. Dragon Quest has always had trouble giving people full orchestrated music actually. A lot of times we just get compressed files. But thankfully some of the games in the west re-orchestrate the music to increase it's sound quality. Now obviously that's not happening in a NES game so we're stuck with 8-bit tunes. But I have to say the tunes are quite fun. I almost fainted the first time I booted up the old game and heard the Dragon Quest theme at the title screen in it's 8-bit form. I was blown away. It sounded quite nice. The music for it's time carries well and never gets too grating. Koichi Sugiyama the music composer of the Dragon Quest series never disappoints and is able to hit each emotion just right. He is a very important part of what gives the series it's charm and he did it very well in this game.
Wow, Why do all the characters look like Goku?
I'm sure some of you guys who are familiar with the anime/manga Dragon Ball can see some similarities between the character designs of the Dragon Quest series and that series. Well that's very astute of you. It's no accident. Ever since the very fist game Mr.Horii saw it fitting to hire the popular mangaka (Japanese comic book writer/artist) Akira Toriyama to design the world, the monsters, and all the characters. Akira Toriyama just so happens to be the same guy who made Dragon Ball. Mr. Toriyama's art is also another very important part of the formula that helps to give the series it's charm.
I'm so Confused!!!!!!!!
Over the course of Dragon Quest's history in the west it has gone through many name changes that even affect the most recent game to hit the states (the remake of Dragon Quest VI for the DS). The series itself was atcually called by a different name all together until the release of Dragon Quest VIII in November of 2005. Before that game the series was called Dragon Warrior in the west so to avoid a copy-write infringement of a pen-and-paper RPG called Dragon Quest that unfortunately beat Enix to the rights of that name in America. But THAT Dragon Quest has fallen off into oblivion and the REAL Dragon Quest has been able to reclaim it's name to the western audience. Dragon Quest I has had quite a bit of inconsistent names and name changes over the years. To help clear it up I'll tell you some of the bigger name changes you should be aware of. The legendary Hero that you're a descendant of is named Erdrick is the USA NES version and is named Roto in the Japanese version. It's made even more confusing because when the GameBoy Remakes where brought over to the US they were given a new translation and Erdrick's name was changed to Loto; which even though goes against the official romanization of the Japanese name, it is still a correct translation. The GameBoy remake also changes the names of the Princess from Gwaelin to Lora. Lastly the Dragon Lord's name has changed to the Draco Lord. But other than that you should be pretty good for the first game.
So wait, What's that About A GameBoy Remake?
Dragon Quest I has been remade a good couple of times just like any other classic has. There are many versions of the game in Japan. You can play it on your Cellphone, your NES, the MSX, your GameBoy Color, ans the Super Famicom (the Japanese equivalent to the Super NES). The west has only gotten the NES version and the GameBoy remake. The GameBoy Remake does come packaged with Dragon Quest II on the same cartridge as well. The Super Famicom version of the game also comes packaged with both Dragon Quest I & II too. That version has been translated by some dedicated fans. Now I don't support piracy but I don't think Square Enix will lose any money over you getting your hands on the ROM. So seek it at your own digression. The Super Famicom version boast improved graphics and sound. I haven't played through the Super Famicom version 100% but it's a solid game. So the question is "What version so I get?" Well I guess it depends. The NES version is just fine and is how I first played the game, and the Super Famicom version is FREE and pretty good. But I have to pick the GameBoy Remake. If you really want to experience the game I suggest trying to hunt down that one. It is just a better package. They added new features like a quick-save and the game now has a more streamlined menu system. The monsters give you more experience and gold after being defeated. This makes the amount of time needed to raise levels and save up for purchases decrease greatly ans causes the game to be more fast-paced and thus easier. The game greatly advantages from that. By cutting down on the old grind I think you'll be able to stand the game more. Plus you get Dragon Quest II as an added bonuses!!! :)
Now for the score. It's a hard thing to score a game that's older than me so I'm going to give it two scores. A score for it's time and a score for us now
BACK THEN: 5/5 The game was revolutionary and pushed the technology to it's bounds. Yuji Horii's little game was also very influential and for that it gets a 5.
NOW: 2/5 The game's story isn't anything special, the gameplay can bore many newer players who are looking for more action, and even for those who love RPG's it's nothing special by today's standards.
So to be fair I'm going to give the game a rank in-between those two scores. So how about a 3. Yeah that sounds fine.
On a side-Note I just thought it would be fitting to post this video. I enjoyed it and thought it showed some of the best things about all the Dragon Quest games. Enjoy:

Palestinian protesters confronted a group of U.S. diplomats visiting the West Bank city of Ramallah.
The diplomats, including Jerusalem consulate employees, were in a convoy of vehicles heading to a reception reaffirming cultural and educational ties with the Palestinian Authority, according to reports.
The demonstration, which reportedly was organized through Facebook, included the hurling of a shoe at the diplomats, which is considered a major insult in the Arab world.
The demonstrators protested against U.S. opposition to the Palestinians' United Nations statehood bid and the U.S. Congress freezing aid to the Palestinian Authority.
Some Palestinians invited to the event stayed away because they were afraid of the protesters, The Associated Press reported.

Warren William Zevon (January 24, 1947 – September 7, 2003) was a Grammy Award-winning American rock singer-songwriter and musician. He was noted for his offbeat, sardonic view of life which was reflected in his dark, sometimes humorous songs, which often incorporated political or historical themes.
Zevon turned to a musical career early, including a stretch with high school friend Violet Santangelo as part of a Sonny and Cher-type male/female duo called lyme & cybelle (in a '60s-ish affectation, the band name eschewed capitalization). He spent time as a session musician (notably as piano player and band leader for the Everly Brothers) and jingle composer. He wrote several songs for his White Whale label-mates the Turtles ("Like the Seasons" and "Outside Chance"), though his participation in their recording is unknown. In the 1960s, Zevon also toured and recorded with Manfred Mann. Another early composition ("She Quit Me") was included in the soundtrack for the film Midnight Cowboy (1969). Zevon's first attempt at a solo album, Wanted Dead or Alive (1969), was produced by 1960s cult figure Kim Fowley but did not fare well in the marketplace. Flashes of Zevon's later writing preoccupations of romantic loss and noir-ish violence are present in songs like "Tule's Blues" and "A Bullet for Ramona". Zevon's second effort, Leaf in the Wind, was scrapped (though a belated release was contemplated just prior to his death). In the early '70s, Zevon toured regularly with the Everly Brothers as keyboard player and band leader/musical coordinator. His dissatisfaction with his career led him to move to Spain in the summer of 1975, where he played in a small bar in Sitges near Barcelona owned by David Lindell, a former mercenary. Together they penned Zevon's classic "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner".
Though a much darker and more ironic songwriter than Browne and other leading figures of the era's L.A.-based singer-songwriter movement, Zevon shared with his '70s L.A. peers a grounding in earlier folk and country influences and a commitment to a writerly style of songcraft with roots in the work of artists like Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell. Though only a modest commercial success, the Browne-produced Warren Zevon (1976) would later be labelled a masterpiece in the first edition of the Rolling Stone Record Guide and is cited in the book's most recently revised (November 2004) edition as Zevon's most realized work. Representative tracks include the junkie's lament "Carmelita," the Copland-esque outlaw ballad "Frank and Jesse James," "The French Inhaler," a scathing insider's look at life and lust on the L.A. music scene and "Desperadoes Under the Eaves," a chronicle of Zevon's growing alcoholism. It was during this period that Zevon's excessive vodka intake earned him the nickname "F. Scott Fitzevon," a reference to the American novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald, whose early, alcohol-fueled death Zevon seemed bent on repeating.
Zevon followed Excitable Boy with 1980s Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School. This album was dedicated to Ken Millar, better known under his nom-de-plume as detective novelist Ross Macdonald. Millar was a literary hero of Zevon's who met the singer for the first time while participating in an intervention organized by Rolling Stone journalist Paul Nelson that helped Zevon temporarily kick his substance addictions. Featuring a modest novelty hit with the single "A Certain Girl" (Zevon's cover of an old R&B novelty record by Ernie K-Doe scraped its way to #45 on the Billboard Singles Chart), the album sold briskly but was uneven, and signaled a decline rather than a step toward commercial and critical consistency. It contained a collaboration with Bruce Springsteen called "Jeannie Needs a Shooter", and the ballad "Empty-Handed Heart" dealing with Zevon's divorce from second wife Crystal and featuring a descant sung by Linda Ronstadt. Later in 1980, he released the live album Stand in the Fire (dedicated to Martin Scorsese), recorded over five nights at the The Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles.
After the disappointing reception for The Envoy, Zevon was dropped by his label Asylum Records, which Zevon discovered only when he read about it in the Random Notes gossip column of Rolling Stone. The trauma caused him to relapse into serious alcoholism, and he voluntarily checked himself into an unnamed rehab clinic somewhere in Minnesota. Zevon retreated from the music business for several years, during which he finally overcame severe alcohol and drug addictions.
In this interim period, Zevon collaborated with Bill Berry, Peter Buck and Mike Mills (all of R.E.M.), along with backup vocalist Bryan Cook to form a loose side project called Hindu Love Gods. The group released the non-charting single "Narrator" on the IRS label in 1984, then went into abeyance for several years.
Berry, Buck and Mills served as the core of Zevon's next studio band when he re-emerged in 1987 by signing with Virgin Records and recording the album Sentimental Hygiene. The release, hailed as his best since Excitable Boy, featured a thicker rock sound and taut, often humorous songs like "Detox Mansion," "Bad Karma" (which featured R.E.M. lead singer Michael Stipe on backup vocals), and "Reconsider Me." Included were contributions from Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Flea, Brian Setzer, George Clinton, as well as Berry, Buck, and Mills. Also on hand were longtime collaborators Jorge Calderón and Waddy Wachtel.
During the Sentimental Hygiene sessions, Zevon also participated in an all-night jam session with Berry, Buck and Mills, as they worked their way through rock and blues numbers by the likes of Bo Diddley, Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson and Prince. Though the sessions were not initially intended for release, they would eventually see the light of day as a Hindu Love Gods album.
The immediate follow-up to Sentimental Hygiene was 1989's Transverse City, a futuristic concept album inspired by Zevon's interest in the work of cyberpunk science fiction author William Gibson. It featured guests including Little Feat drummer Richie Hayward, Jefferson Airplane bassist Jack Casady, keyboard player Chick Corea and guitarists Jerry Garcia, Pink Floyd's David Gilmour and Neil Young. Key tracks include the title song, "Splendid Isolation," "Run Straight Down" (which had a promotional video that featured Zevon singing in a factory while Gilmour played his guitar solos) and "They Moved the Moon," the latter among Zevon's eerier ballads.
In 1991, Zevon, once again a solo artist, released Mr. Bad Example. This album featured the modest pop hit "Searching for a Heart" and the rocker "Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead", later utilized for the title of the neo-noir film of the same name directed by Gary Fleder; after some skirmishing over the unauthorized use of Zevon's song title, the Zevon track was licensed to play over the film's end credits.
Zevon toured the United States (with the Odds), Europe, and Australia and New Zealand during this period.
Owing to his reduced circumstances, his performances were often true solo efforts (with minimal accompaniment on piano and guitar); 1993's live Learning to Flinch documents such a tour. The disc received some airplay on college radio and was considered Zevon's Unplugged. Zevon often played in Colorado to allow for an opportunity to visit with his long-time friend Hunter S. Thompson.
A lifelong fan of "hard-boiled" fiction, Zevon was close to several prominent writers who also collaborated on his songwriting during this period, including Thompson, Carl Hiaasen and Mitch Albom. Zevon also served as musical coordinator for an ad-hoc rock group called the Rock Bottom Remainders, a collection of writers performing rock and roll standards at book fairs and other events. This group included Stephen King, Dave Barry, Matt Groening and Amy Tan, among other popular writers, and it has continued to perform one benefit concert per year since Zevon's death. An affiliated project Zevon both played on and wrote liner notes for is the offbeat 1998 album Stranger Than Fiction, a two CD set attributed to the Wrockers containing rock covers and originals by many of the Remainders authors plus such notables as Norman Mailer and Maya Angelou. Zevon oversaw music for the short-lived revival of the NBC series Route 66 (1993), contributing that series' main title theme, "If You Won't Leave Me I'll Find Somebody Who Will".
Occasionally, between 1982 and 2001, Zevon filled in for Paul Shaffer as bandleader on Late Night with David Letterman and later Late Show with David Letterman. One example was in 1998 when Shaffer traveled to Canada to film his cameo in Blues Brothers 2000.
In 1995, Zevon released the self-produced Mutineer. The title track was frequently covered by Bob Dylan live on tour in the 2000s, and Zevon's cover of cult artist Judee Sill's "Jesus Was a Crossmaker" predated the wider rediscovery of her work a decade later. The album, however, suffered the worst sales of Zevon's career, in part because his label, superagent Irving Azoff's short-lived Giant Records, was in the process of going out of business. Rhino Records released a Zevon "best-of" compilation that same year, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (An Anthology). Zevon also appeared on the Larry Sanders Show on HBO, playing himself as a guest on the show.
After another five-year layoff, Zevon signed with industry veteran Danny Goldberg's Artemis Records and again rebounded with the mortality-themed 2000 release Life'll Kill Ya, containing the hymn-like "Don't Let Us Get Sick" and an austere version of Steve Winwood's '80s hit "Back in the High Life Again". With record sales reasonably brisk and adulatory music critics giving Zevon his best notices since Excitable Boy, Life'll Kill Ya is seen as his second comeback. He followed with 2002's My Ride's Here (with morbid prescience of things to come, Zevon is shown seated in a hearse on the cover), which included "Hit Somebody! (The Hockey Song)" (which was co-written by Tuesdays with Morrie author Mitch Albom, and featured a spoken guest vocal from TV host David Letterman) and the ballad "Genius", later taken as the title for a 2002 Zevon anthology, and a song whose string section illustrates the lasting influence of Stravinsky on Zevon's work.
At about this time, he and actor Billy Bob Thornton formed a close friendship, bonding over their common experiences with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
In interviews, Zevon described a lifelong phobia of doctors and said he seldom received medical assessment. In 2002, after a long period of untreated illness and pain, Zevon was encouraged by his dentist to see a physician; when he did so he was diagnosed with inoperable mesothelioma (a form of cancer associated with exposure to asbestos, and also the same cancer that killed Steve McQueen). Refusing treatments he believed might incapacitate him, Zevon instead began recording his final album. The album, The Wind, includes guest appearances by close friends including Bruce Springsteen, Don Henley, Jackson Browne, Timothy B. Schmit, Joe Walsh, David Lindley, Billy Bob Thornton, Emmylou Harris, Tom Petty, and others. At the request of the music television channel VH1, documentarian Nick Read was given access to the sessions; his cameras documented a man who retained his mordant sense of humor, even as his health was deteriorating over time.
On October 30, 2002, Zevon was featured on the Late Show with David Letterman as the only guest for the entire hour. The band played "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" as his introduction. Zevon performed several songs and spoke at length about his illness. Zevon was a frequent guest and occasional substitute bandleader on Letterman's television shows since Late Night first aired in 1982. He noted, "I may have made a tactical error in not going to a physician for 20 years." It was during this broadcast that Zevon first offered his oft-quoted insight on facing death: "Enjoy every sandwich." He also took time to thank Letterman for his years of support, calling him "the best friend my music's ever had". For his final song of the evening, and his final public performance, Zevon performed "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner" at Letterman's request. In the green room after the show, Zevon presented Letterman with the guitar that he always used on the show, with a single request: "Here, I want you to have this, take good care of it."
Zevon previously stated that his illness was expected to be terminal within months after the diagnosis in the fall of 2002; however, he lived to see the birth of twin grandsons in June 2003 and the release of The Wind on August 26, 2003. Owing in part to the first VH1 broadcasts of Nick Read's documentary Warren Zevon: Keep Me In Your Heart (which brought fresh attention to Zevon's illness), the album entered the national record charts at number 16, Zevon's highest placement since Excitable Boy. When his diagnosis became public, Zevon told the media that he just hoped to live long enough to see the next James Bond movie, a goal he accomplished; ironically, the film was entitled Die Another Day.
Warren Zevon died on September 7, 2003, aged 56, at his home in Los Angeles, California. The Wind was certified gold by the RIAA in December 2003 and Zevon received five posthumous Grammy nominations, including Song Of The Year for the ballad "Keep Me In Your Heart". The Wind won two Grammys, with the album itself receiving the award for Best Contemporary Folk Album, while "Disorder in the House", Zevon's duet with Bruce Springsteen, was awarded Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocal. These posthumous awards were the first Grammys of Zevon's more than 30-year career.
He was cremated and his ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean near Los Angeles.
On February 14, 2006, VH1 Classic premiered a music video from a new compilation, Reconsider Me: The Love Songs. The video, titled "She's Too Good For Me", aired every hour on the hour throughout the day.
First-ever CD issues of the Zevon albums Stand in the Fire and The Envoy were released on March 27, 2007 by Rhino Records alongside a Rhino re-issue of Excitable Boy, with the three albums expanded from all previous versions by four tracks each. Noteworthy rarities in these editions include the outtakes "Word of Mouth" and "The Risk" from the Envoy sessions and "Frozen Notes (Strings Version)", a melancholic outtake from Excitable Boy performed on acoustic piano with a string quartet in the style of 1976's Warren Zevon LP. Also included on the expanded Excitable Boy CD is the brief but hilarious "I Need A Truck", Zevon's first-ever acapella studio release.
On May 1, 2007, Ammal Records, the new label started up as a partnership with New West Records by Zevon's former boss at Artemis Danny Goldberg, released Preludes - Rare and Unreleased Recordings, a two-disc anthology of Zevon demos and alternate versions culled from 126 pre-1976 recordings found inside an old road case after Zevon's death. The album contains five previously unreleased songs: "Empty Hearted Town", "Going All the Way", "Steady Rain", "Stop Rainin` Lord" and "The Rosarita Beach Cafe", along with Zevon's original demo for "Studebaker", the song performed by Jordan Zevon on Enjoy Every Sandwich. Selections from an interview between Zevon and Austin-based radio personality Jody Denberg are blended with about 40 minutes of music on the collection's second disc.
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead: The Dirty Life and Times of Warren Zevon, a biography/oral history compiled by ex-wife Crystal Zevon, was published in 2007 by Ecco Books. The book is comprised of interwoven interviews from many of Zevon's friends and associates, and is notable for its unvarnished portrayal of Zevon (reputedly at his request).
In 2006, Zevon's song "Lawyers, Guns and Money" was used as the theme song for producer Jerry Bruckheimer's short-lived Fox network TV series Justice. The series ended after only 13 episodes. Coincidentally, seven years earlier Zevon's song "Even A Dog Can Shake Hands" was used as the theme song for the show Action, which also ran for 13 episodes.
In 2006, Zevon's song "Keep Me In Your Heart" (The Wind, 2003) was included in the Boston Legal season 2 episode "Too Much Information", which features Michael J. Fox portraying a man dying of lung cancer, a situation not unlike Zevon's when he wrote the song.
"Keep Me In Your Heart" also appeared in the TV show According to Jim, as the background music for a montage video, as the main character reluctantly celebrates his 50th birthday.
The Irish poet Paul Muldoon has written a long poem called 'Sillyhow Stride (in memory of Warren Zevon)', published in his 2006 book Horse Latitudes.
In 2008, Zevon's song "My Shit's Fucked Up" appeared at the end of the Californication season 2 premiere as David Duchovny's character was being beaten by a police officer and his newly reformed relationship seemed to be falling apart again.

Program 320: Jeff Greenwald's Nepal; Visiting St Peter's Basilica
Release Date: 03-30-2013
On Air Description
Travel writer Jeff Greenwald makes a point to return to Nepal every year. He joins us on the next Travel with Rick Steves to describe how long-held customs are challenged by modern pressures and political turmoil in Nepal, and to point out what's timeless about the Himalayan culture, that draws him back, year after year.
And we take a close-up look at Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome, to understand what went into making it the most impressive church in the world, with tips for making it a high point of your life's travels.
Give your spirit a boost, with this week's Travel with Rick Steves.

Dated References
- In Jeff Greenwald's interview in segments A and B, and in the opening billboard, there are references to Nepal as a "fledgling democracy," after a popular revolution in April 1990, a ten year civil war (started in 1995), the massacre of the royal family (June 1, 2001), and its starting to operate as a republic in 2006.
- In the segment A open at 6:30, Rick refers to the "recent attention" over the papal election in the Vatican (March 2013).
- At 12:15, Jeff says the republic of Nepal is "broken," due to the amount of corruption and an inability to govern effectively. He adds that China has built roads through the mountains to Kathmandu, and has since tried to place limitations on the Tibetan community within Nepal.
- At 13:55, Jeff notes that pensions for Nepali gurkha soldiers who served in Haiti and Britain are the major income source in the country, and that the gurkhas were villified for the cholera epidemic that followed the 2010 earthquate in Haiti.
- At 15:40, Rick brings up the "living virgin goddess" tradition as an example of medieval aspects that persist in Nepali culture. Jeff explains that it, and animal sacrifices, have become controversial as Nepal goes through a transitional phase of modern attitudes. He adds that the king had been a way to pull together the identities of 100 different ethnic groups in Nepal, and that there is a nostalgia for the monarchy.
- At 18:05 Jeff confirms that a lot of Nepal's wealth and trade comes from India.
- In the segment A close at 18:41 Rick says "we celebrate Easter" in just a bit, as a promotion for today's segment C interview.
- In segment B, starting around 27:10, Jeff notes that tourists to Nepal in recent years are more serious-minded explorers than was typical in the early 1970s, and he gives a couple of examples of Westerners who have started businesses there which help the local people. At 28:46, Jeff says you now have to pay "a pretty hefty price" to enter Bhaktapur.
- At 29:30, Jeff mentions dry goods are traditionally sold by weight in Bhaktapur and Patan.
- At 34:48, Jeff notes that hundreds of people fly to Kathmandu each year to attend the Saturday teachings of the Buddhist teacher Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche.
- At 35:43, Jeff lists some of the complaints and deprivations facing the Nepali people today, but adds that the value of generosity is predominant in their culture.
- Rick calls the Vatican Museum, at 48:41, one of the greatest in all of Europe.
- At 51:18, Gene and Francesca remind that advance reservations are required to view the Scavi necropolis underneath Saint Peter's Basilica, which was opened a few decades ago. He adds reservations can still be made by fax, but must be several months in advance of your visit.
- Rick adds at 53:00 that mass is celebrated daily at 5pm in Saint Peter's.
Program Extras
Program 320 extra - Rick and Gene Openshaw discuss how the artistic beauty of St. Peter's Basilica reflects the values of the Renaissance in the early 1500s, when many great artists were all working in Rome. They note how you can see this in Rafael's painting, "The School of Athens." (runs 1:13)

text: Freddie Bartholomew, 67, whose popularity as a 1930s child star of such films as "David Copperfield," "Little Lord Fauntleroy," "Captains Courageous" and "Anna Karenina" failed to propel him to success as an adult actor, died of emphysema Thursday in Florida, where he had retired. "He was one of the finest, if not the finest, child actors that we had on the scene at that time," said Mickey Rooney, who had appeared with him in "The Devil is a Sissy." In the early 1950s, Mr. Bartholomew was host of a daytime TV show and an associate director of a New York TV station. In 1954, he went to work for the Benton & Bowles advertising agency in New York and become a vice president.

My landscaper will shortly be breaking ground on our project. Does anyone have any improvements or changes to the design that they recommend?
My biggest questions are:
1. How much space should I have between the half-moon and pizza oven? I was thinking about 5' since a 52" peel seems about standard (maybe I am wrong about this, am I?) (I am planning on an FGM950 if this factors in to the distance recommended)
2. How much space between the counter prep island and the cooking island? I was thinking only like 2' since I actually do not want people trafficking through but everyone else says 3' is standard.
-WFO newbie ready to get fired up!
Re: Thoughts?
What size oven is your plan? A 46" space will only allow a small oven, probably less than 30" of cooking surface. I cant tell where you are referring to the space between cooking area and prep, but don't go 2', you will be crowded. Keep at least 34" and remember that you will have overhang on your counters to factor in. Good plan, but make sure you have room for the oven that you want before proceeding.
Re: Thoughts?
I am going with the FGM950, it is 37.5" cooking surface. The 46" is erroneous...
Re: Thoughts?
I would suggest you include a sink in your design. Also 5 feet may be a little tight btw the oven and half-moon counter, I would flip over your counter to be concave toward the oven. You will get more seating on the outside and more convenient working space on the inside. Mine is configured that way.

This question already has an answer here:
Non-technical people tend to say the word module instead of feature. But I always get annoyed if someone tells me to write a module when what they really want is a feature.
In my opinion a module is more than just a feature. A module has no strong dependencies to the application. The application works without the need for any modules. This is why I get angry if someone wants me to write a module because it is not easy to write modular applications. It requires architecting. A feature can be a module or not to be.
So I always prefer to understand module as a feature if a non-programmer asks it of me. What do you understand if someone wants a module? What is module in programming terms?

Cancer researchers at the University of Birmingham have been given permission from Britain's Health and Safety Executive to resume genetic engineering experiments that the HSE's inspectors had halted earlier this year because of fears over safety (This Week, 12 February).
The HSE banned experiments with viruses genetically engineered to ferry a cancer-causing gene into samples of human cells.
Inspectors wanted full assessments of whether the viruses - which had been 'disabled' so they could not spread to people - would be able to mutate back into an infectious state. They also asked the researchers to move the experiments to a safer laboratory.
Peter Ward, the area director for the HSE in the West Midlands, says that the researchers, led by David Gallimore of the department of cancer studies, 'have reviewed and revised their risk assessments to HSE's satisfaction, and put into place suitable controls'. Inspectors will visit the department periodically ...

Week 17 is a busy one for the Broncos compared to the last two weeks with two games on the slate. Boise State closes their home schedule with two contests beginning with San Jose State on Thursday and Hawai'i on Saturday. Both games will tip at 7:05 p.m. (Mountain) in Taco Bell Arena on Boise State's campus.
This week Boise State is pushing for a "ORANGE OUT" at all home athletic events encouraging fans to show their support for the Broncos by wearing orange to the games and the gymnastics meet on Friday. Thursday night is "Trading Card Night" with the first 500 kids through the doors getting a set of Boise State basketball cards. Saturday night versus Hawai'i is "Senior Night," the Broncos will honor their two seniors with a short pregame ceremony. Tickets to the events are $5.00 for adults and $3.00 for kids high school age and younger.
The Broncos are currently tied with Fresno State for first place in the Western Athletic Conference standings with a 11-2 league record. With three games remaining each game takes on added importance as Boise State tries to defend their championship from a year ago. Fresno State has three games remaining against the current third and fourth place teams; they play New Mexico State (9-3 WAC) the third place team twice, back-to-back, before closing the season at Nevada (9-4) the current fourth place team March 8. In addition, Nevada must travel to New Mexico State this Thursday with the loser falling further behind the top two teams.
However, the Broncos need to take care of their own business to have a chance at the title. Two of the final three opponents for Boise State played the Broncos tight in the first meeting of the season. Boise State won at San Jose State 78-51 on Jan. 31 to claim their first ever win at SJSU; they held off a second half Hawai'i rally for a four-point (77-73) victory in Honolulu Jan. 24; and out gunned Utah State in Boise 85-77 on Jan. 17. Note, Utah State knocked off Nevada and Fresno State in Logan last week. The Broncos have to travel to USU next Thursday for Boise State's regular season finale before heading to the WAC Tournament in Las Cruces, N.M. the week of March 11-15.
Looking at the Boise State Broncos . . .
Boise State features the league's top and the nation's 18th ranked scoring offense averaging 74.6 points per game. They are an up tempo team who is at it's best pushing the ball up the floor in a wide open attack. During their current 11-game win streak they have been held below 70 points once and have scored 80 or more six times. Their current win streak is tied for the 11th longest active streak in the NCAA.
Entering the week Boise State has gone 19-6 overall and 11-2 in Western Athletic Conference action. The Broncos are currently tied for first place in the league standings with Fresno State. Boise State has won 14 consecutive home games dating back to last year, that record is ranked as the seventh longest active home win streak in the NCAA.
Boise State returned three starters and seven letterwinners from last year's championship team. They also added eight new faces to the squad. After struggling initially going 3-3 early, the Broncos slowly found their way finishing the non-conference slate at 8-4. Included in Boise State's non-conference results is a 2-1 mark versus the PAC-10 and a 4-0 record against teams that went to postseason tournaments last year. Their two wins over league rival Nevada, who played in the WNIT last year, this season gives the Broncos' a perfect 6-0 record against 2007 postseason teams (3-0 vs. NCAA Tournament and 3-0 vs. WNIT).
The Broncos opened conference action going 0-2 on the road. Boise State started off with two disappointing conference loses to open league play at Fresno State 73-63 and at New Mexico State 79-65. In both games the Broncos dug themselves a huge hole then battled back only to fade down the stretch. However, Boise State has not lost since going 11-0 and averaging 78.3 points per game with a victory margin of 13.6 ppg during the streak.
Boise State is the defending Western Athletic Conference champions after going 12-4 in league play last season. They set a school record for overall wins after finishing 24-9 during the 2006-07 campaign highlighted by the WAC's regular season and tournament titles, and a NCAA Tournament first round appearance where they lost 76-67 to George Washington. This year's Boise State team was picked to repeat their conference championship in 2008 by both the league's coaches and media.
Who To Watch For The Broncos . . .
Where do you begin, Boise State has become a solid team during league play with six of the nine active players having recorded at least one double figure point game and four Broncos averaging over 10 points per game. Boise State has arguably the best backcourt combination in the WAC in juniors Tasha Harris and Jessica Thompson. The duo were both Preseason All-WAC honorees and have each reached the 1,000 career points milestone this season.
Harris starts at the point-guard position where she has scored double-figure points in 24-of-25 games while leading the Broncos in scoring 13 times this season and 30 times during her career. She enters this week as the WAC's leading scorer at 16.6 points per game (NCAA 81st) to go with 4.2 rebounds, 3.6 assists (WAC 2nd), and 2.0 steals (WAC 7th).
Thompson is the WAC's Preseason Player of the Year. The junior starts at the shooting-guard position where she has led the team in scoring 10 times this year and 32 times throughout her career. She is ranked sixth in the WAC for scoring at 14.6 points per game. She has recorded double-digit points in 22-of-25 games during the 2007-08 campaign.
The Broncos play for the most part a three guard offense with senior Jackie Lee playing the wing (three-guard) where she has turned it on in league action averaging of 10.5 points (WAC 16th) and 5.0 rebounds (WAC t-17th) per game. She is approaching the 1,000 career point milestone needing 59 entering this week in order to join teammates Thompson and Harris in the 1,000 point club as the 15th member.
Meanwhile, junior forward Jenna Galassi has been a major factor in WAC competition as well averaging 11.0 points (WAC 14th) and 4.3 boards during conference play. Junior reserve guard Jamia Malone has become the best 3-point shooter during league competition hitting 38 percent (19-50) of her attempts to rank seventh in the WAC. She is averaging 7.0 points per game in conference games.
Sophomore Ja'Lara Walker moved into a starting role at center following Amanda Stewart's injury at Hawai'i on Jan. 24th. Since then, the Merced, Calif. native has recorded two double-doubles and reset her career highs for points and rebounds twice, currently 18 and 11 respectively. In addition, she is shooting an impressive 78.4 percent (29-37) from the floor while averaging 9.4 points and 6.9 rebounds during her seven starts.
Offensively As A Team . . .
The Broncos feature the WAC's top ranked scoring offense and the nation's 18th on the year averaging 74.6 points per game on 40.7 percent (WAC 5th) shooting from the floor, 33.6 percent (WAC 3rd) from 3-point range, and a league best 72.1 percent from the foul line. In league games the Broncos are averaging 76.1 points (WAC 1st) per game and have scored 80 plus points six times. They are ranked 19th nationally for three-pointers per game at 7.0 per contest.
Defensively As A Team . . .

Thursday, Feb. 28 in Taco Bell Arena
The Series . . .
Thursday's encounter will be the 16th meeting all-time in the series with the Spartans holding a 10-5 lead. The two teams met three times last season with Boise State winning two.

Preview of Game 27: Hawai'i at Boise State
Saturday, March 28 in Taco Bell Arena
Senior Night
The Series . . .
Saturday's meeting will be the 16th all-time in the series between the Broncos and Rainbow Wahine. Hawai'i currently holds a 9-6 lead in the series. However, the Broncos swept last year's series winning in Honolulu (Jan. 20) for the first time by the score of 62-53, followed by a 66-56 win in the regular season finale in Boise (March 3). This season the first meeting went to the Broncos 77-73 in Honolulu (Jan. 24). Boise State has won four straight over Hawai'i.
The Last Time They Met . . .
The Broncos and Rainbow Wahine met earlier this season in Honolulu on Jan. 24 when Boise State won a close 77-73 game. The Broncos took a 16-point halftime lead then held off a slow meticulous Wahine rally that cut the lead to three in the final minute. Boise State's Tasha Harris hit three-of-four free throws in the final 27 seconds followed by Ja'Lara Walker making one-of-two with one second remaining to give the Broncos their final four-point victory margin. Tasha Harris scored a team-high 24 points while Jenna Galassi added a career-high 21. Tanya Smith led Hawai'i with a double-double on 25 points and 17 rebounds.
A Quick Look At Hawai'i . . .

They split a pair of home games last week losing to Fresno State 75-62 before rebounding to down San Jose State 61-47. They will play at Idaho Thursday night before traveling to Boise for their Saturday encounter with the Broncos.
The Wahine are in their fourth season under the direction of Jim Bolla who is 54-54 at the school. Hawai'i returned two starters and eight letterwinners from last season's squad that went 9-7 in league to place tied for fourth and 15-14 overall. This year's Hawai'i team was picked to place sixth by both the conference's coaches and media.
Statistically For The Wahine . . .
As a Team: Hawai'i enters the week with the WAC's sixth ranked scoring offense at 64.8 points per game. Defensively, they are seventh in the league allowing 67.3 points per outing. The Wahine have been shooting a second best in the league at 41.7 percent from the floor on the year, 33.2 percent (WAC 4th) from 3-point range, and 62.1 percent (WAC 8th) from the charity stripe.

What kind of t shirts do you wear? Do you like t shirts that are a solid color or logos or music artists?
I like to paint my own tees, either with music design or flowers or funny lines. My newest one is with James Dean.
i realized that i wear alot of stripes, i look good im pink..... when i was younger i wore alot of band tees but now i dress more like a woman.. i wear shirts with patterns and... i like to show off some of my back.
Not a t shirt girl..but, generally no logos
I like v necks and solid pastels
I usually wear T-shirts that are ba<x>seball-related. I also go to the local thrift store and pick out a few cool T-shirts that can be anything from aardvarks to zoology, just as long as they look cool.
I only wear t-shirts when I'm lounging around or sometimes if I'm in my studio working on a large piece where I might get dirt or shards of glass on me. They have stuff written on them like the names and logos of organizations that I have volunteered.
I don't always wear T-shirts, but when I do... they are always music tees.

(But I have two exceptions- a t-shirt with The Big Lebowski on the front, and one with Bettie Page on the front.)
I wear plain ones or ones with logos on :-)
So, you got me to double check my shirt. Of which is currently solid PINK.
Scenic. But if seen, in a heartbeat, I will buy Tee with nature. Animals, Amphibians i really love Snakes and would hold one in a heartbeat. I like them large 4 - 6 feet. any larger and I would assume they would be too heavy.

JMS Selectors
Selectors are a way of attaching a filter to a subscription to perform content based routing. Selectors are defined using SQL 92 syntax and typically apply to message headers; whether the standard properties available on a JMS message or custom headers you can add via the JMS code.
Here is an example
For more documentation on the detail of selectors see the reference on javax.jmx.Message.
Using XPath to filter messages
Apache ActiveMQ also supports XPath based selectors when working with messages containing XML bodies. To use an XPath selector use the following syntax
Xalan dependency
XPath support requires Xalan which is not part of the distribution. The Xalan jars needs to be manually added to lib directory or pulled into your app via maven
String Property Conversions / Selecting Against STOMP messages
The JMS spec states that a String property should not get converted to a numeric when used in a selector. So for example, if a message has the 'age' property set to String '21' then the following selector should not match it: 'age > 18'. Since ActiveMQ support STOMP client which can only send messages with string properties, that restriction is a bit limiting. If you want your JMS selectors to auto-convert String properties the the appropriate number type, just prefix the the selector with 'convert_string_expressions:'. If you changed selector in the previous example to be 'convert_string_expressions:age > 18', then it would match the message.

Tamale — Fear has gripped most residents of Buipe in the Northern Region, as close to three hundred fully loaded fuel tankers are stranded at the Bulk Oil Storage and Transport (BOST) depot under the scorching sun.
At the moment, Buipe town is sitting on a time-bomb as a result of the hazardous way the tankers, which carrying highly inflammable products, are allowed to park along the main streets and within the community.
This follows a disagreement between the management of BOST and some tanker drivers over which acceptable measuring tool should be used in discharging or offloading the fuel.
Buipe is noted for the indiscriminate burning of bushes, burning of charcoal, and worst of all, the non-existence of a fire station in the whole of the Central Gonja District.
While the drivers are demanding the use of a "T-Bar" to measure the fuel, the management of BOST also insists on using a "flow meter" to ensure transparency.
However, the tanker drivers, who accused the BOST management of always tampering with the flow meters to satisfy their selfish interest, alleged that they (drivers) always run at a loss anytime the flow meter was used to measure their fuel at the Buipe Depot.
According to the spokesperson for the frustrated tanker drivers, Nana Boakye Dwumfuor, the drivers were always blamed for the losses, and compelled by their employers or owners to bear the cost.
The fuel tanker drivers have since the last three weeks been stranded at the BOST depot, together with their mates. The majority of the drivers and their mates expressed disappointment at the management of BOST for taking what they termed as an "unreasonable" stance to deprive the entire Northern Ghana of access to fuel.
The raging confusion between the drivers and BOST management at Buipe has resulted in fuel shortages across the region.
The angry drivers, who found it very difficult to get good parking spaces and had rather parked at the premises of some mosques and churches, as well as homes, told The Chronicle that they could not guarantee the safety of the people in Buipe, since the weather continued to be at boiling point.
Chanting "no T-bar, no discharging of fuel", the tanker drivers said the uncompromising position of the BOST management had forced them to sleep in their vehicles for two to three weeks to ensure the safety of their tankers.
They, however, complained bitterly about the inability of BOST and the Central Gonja District Assembly to build a befitting parking place for the tankers. The Chronicle discovered that the perilous way of parking the tankers had compelled school children to share the street with vehicles.
Around the Buipe Market, this reporter spotted a fire burning in the direction of the tankers, and alerted the drivers, who quickly put it off. The paper also discovered that most of the takers were parked under high tension poles, with others close to chop bars and homes.
The Assembly Member for the Buipe Electoral Area, Abubakari Yussif, in an interview with The Chronicle, appealed to the authorities and BOST management to consider the dangers the tankers posed to lives and properties in Buipe, and settle the issue amicably.
The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Central Gonja, Sualisu Be-Awuribe, described the situation as a security threat, and urged the parties to address the issue immediately.
He also unveiled plans by the assembly to construct a commercially viable modern state of the art cargo port in Buipe.

Celebrity Fiji Weddings And Honeymoons
From Tori Spelling To Britney Spears
Fiji Weddings begin a lifetime of joy and romance, fusing ancient traditions with an ambience comprised of contemporary luxury in this tropical paradise. Some very famous people have chosen the island nation for Fiji weddings and honeymoons, including Tori Spelling's marriage with Dean McDermott. In a simple but elegant flowing white gown, Tori embraced the sea for her nuptials, with bare toes touching the water's edge as she and Dean exchanged vows in a private ceremony.
Other celebrities who have married or honeymooned on Fiji include Britney Spears and Kevin Federline, and the first bachelorette – Trista and Ryan – who honeymooned on Fiji as well. In fact, so romantic were the star-slathered skies and tranquil waters of Fiji that ABC chose Namale Fiji for its finale filming of the bachelorette for 2011, with our 5-star resort representing the ultimate in romance for Ashley. Relaxed yet opulent, celebrities and ordinary people alike can request the kind of wedding and honeymoon that fits any romantic imagination.
Because Namale's property is lush with tropical vegetation, home to bures and villas scattered sparingly around our 500-plus acres of ground, the sense of privacy and remoteness proves ideal for couples to begin their lives together. Weddings can be held either beach side, as was Tori's, or deck side overlooking the water. Wedding vendors and caterers are among the top 5 in all categories, serving up succulent native or traditional dishes with floral arrangements exquisitely designed.
After the festivities are over, couples may enjoy the Ultimate Fusion Spa treatment or lunch at our private waterfalls with a picnic basket packed by our staff. Many couples love to take the Dolphin Tour at Natewa Bay, delighting in these friendly happy creatures as they romp in the waters. Of course, honeymooning wouldn't be complete without a romantic candle-lit dinner under a bed of stars.
Fiji weddings can be created to your specifications, whether it's a simple affair as enjoyed by Tori Spelling or you rent the entire resort to host family and friends for the celebration of a lifetime. To learn more about the most romantic wedding and honeymoon destination on earth, please visit the Romance section of our website or call 800.727.3454 for further details.

The computation is the running the runway during landing is high because the RSA following: is very short.

I feel that the instructions are not clear to anyone inexperienced. Most fudge recipes need to be beaten until they are no longer glossy to get that fudgey texture.
blah.... i made this last night and here it being 8 o'clock in the morning, its a brown goo. i would not recomend this recipe as it is not very explanitory in when it is done, so it was very har...
I was happy when I saw the vegan label, having one in my household, but this recipe turned to mush and was unservable.

A federal push is underway this week to encourage people to visit national wildlife refuges during National Wildlife Refuge Week. From Oct. 14 - 20, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service wants citizens to celebrate AmericaŌĆÖs wildlife heritage, and see what wildlife refuges are doing to conserve it.
ŌĆ£National wildlife refuges play a crucial role in conserving AmericaŌĆÖs wildlife legacy,ŌĆØ says U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Director Dan Ashe in a news release. ŌĆ£Refuges also play important roles in human communities.
By providing healthy habitats for wildlife, refuges improve the air we breathe and the water we drink, improve soil quality and give protection against flooding in flood-prone areas. Jobs and businesses in local communities rely on refuges ŌĆō and the visitors they attract. Refuges offer glorious and protected places to hunt, fish, hike and share the outdoors with a new generation.ŌĆØ┬Ā
While the National Fish Hatchery is technically not considered a national wildlife refuge, the wetland management district is headquartered at the hatchery. Fish Hatchery Director Kurt Eversman said he has been working to encourage more people to come to the hatchery.
ŌĆ£With regards to folks coming out to celebrate refuges, thatŌĆÖs great. As far as IŌĆÖm concerned I donŌĆÖt care what itŌĆÖs called or what itŌĆÖs officially titled, just as long as I get folks to come out and visit.ŌĆØ
Eversman said he wants people to feel welcome at the hatchery and feels some of the signs that have been posted there might deter visitors. He said heŌĆÖs worked at five fish hatcheries and had never seen one with so many restrictive signs until he came to North Dakota and plans to remove them.
ŌĆ£ŌĆØNo vehicle entry,ŌĆÖ ŌĆśofficial vehicle only,ŌĆÖ ŌĆśprivate area,ŌĆÖ IŌĆÖd never seen so many signs. If I was somebody who wanted to come out here and enjoy this National Fish Hatchery, where would I go and feel comfortable with coming out and not having someone chase me around with a gun and a badge citing me for violations? So I had fun taking the one sign out, and IŌĆÖll take the other signs out, too.ŌĆØ
Eversman said the property belongs to the taxpayers and taxpayers are welcome to use it. Recently the fish hatchery has hosted groups from the boy and girl scouts, Junior Naturalists Club and Valley City State University. On Saturday, ŌĆ£Secrets of the SheyenneŌĆØ will be held for students in grades four through six and their parents will be held at the hatchery, where students will learn about the wildlife, fishing, bug collecting, erosion and floods.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖve said this from day one: ŌĆśThis isnŌĆÖt my property, IŌĆÖm the caretaker of the property. ItŌĆÖs yours; itŌĆÖs the taxpayers. You should be able to enjoy the resource,ŌĆÖŌĆØ Eversman said.
