1/7 Photos of Fried Rice My Way
Prep Time:
Cook Time:
15 mins

I've been making fried rice like this for a million years and just realized I've never shared my recipe here. I made my fried rice to keep and be sold by the tub over lunch time, so I was very particular about how I made it. This is a scaled down amount to that which I'd make commercially. I don't much like celery or carrots in it, but would use them in rather than waste them if they were hanging around in the fridge. I don't use soy sauce in it as I find it penetrates the grains of rice and goes soggy-oyster or hoisin being thicker coat the grains, makes them go glossy and keep better. And so many cooks are so heavy handed with soy that the rice goes the ugliest shade of dark brown. Eeewwww. 2 of us just ate this for lunch; it would serve 4 as a side dish. Rice is best cooked the day before and chilled in the fridge. Overcooked, gluggy rice won't make good fried rice! This isn't authentic, but it always worked well for me.

The glory that is Ephesus'By Isabel Berenguer Asuncion
My summer was full of ruin. Well, ruins, that is. After writing about Pompeii two weeks ago, let me now introduce you to a little ancient gem called Ephesus.
My summer was full of ruin. Well, ruins, that is. After writing about Pompeii two weeks ago, let me now introduce you to a little ancient gem called Ephesus.
When I was much younger, I thought this story about a volcano erupting and burying an entire city and all its wealth and treasures was mythical. But no, it was real. My summer holidays finally took me to central Italy's Campania region near what is now the city of Naples. Here, Mount Vesuvius looms over the once-lost city of Pompeii.
That was a few years back in 1991 when I heard news about famed singer Eric Clapton's son. He literally ran out of an open full-height window in the apartment owned by his mother's friend where they stayed while on holiday. The window, about six feet high and four feet wide, was negligently left open after it was cleaned by a housekeeper. The boy entered the room and darted past both his nanny and the housekeeper and fell out onto a neighboring building. The window was not designed to be opened, and strangely, was not properly fitted with security features. The toddler plummeted down 29 floors.
I lost my mother 20 years ago. Her illness and eventual passing was shocking—she was bursting with life, infinite in the love she shared and unrelenting in her humor. Her ability to lift anyone's spirit was her legacy. She was everyone's friend.
When one thinks of wineries, certain images come to mind: rows and rows of bright green grape vines, a villa or chateau sitting atop a hill, and dark cellars filled with large oak barrels.

Hot on the heels of the Tencent.com news of posting record profits, Nexon America announced yesterday that they've also set a few records of their own. Looking at July '08 vs. '09 saw a 35 percent increase in revenues.
Leading the revenue surge was Nexon's now 6 year old (Korean) and 4 year old (North America) free-to-play genre defining Maple Story. This past July saw a record number of more than 70,000 max concurrent users online. Nexon America counts over 6 million registered users, only a small fraction of Maple Story's 92 million total worldwide players.
To put this into perspective, the NPD Group recently reported a 29 percent drop in video game industry revenues in July '09, when compared to the year before. So where's the disconnect? Obviously, the current global economic situation has forced consumers into tightening the belt, and holding off on new hardware and software purchases. When looking at the current situation and instigating the "Some things will have to go," mentality, surely that gaming subscription might be one of the first things to go. Et viola, enter stage right the appeal of free-to-play gaming.
"The economy has been tough on great deal of the games industry, but we fought hard to retain our customers and to bring in as many new players as possible," said Min Kim, Nexon America's vice president of marketing. "We're heavily investing on all fronts – in our games, our publishing platform, aggressive marketing efforts as well as customer service. The best news for Nexon America is that our success isn't just reflected in registered users, but in actual, dramatic revenue growth."
During the month of July, Nexon put the pedal to the metal with marketing efforts including a massive internet wide campaign for their fantasy MMOG, Mabinogi. The company also ran major television and feature film preview advertising campaigns for Maple Story. If that wasn't enough, Nexon's popular FPS Combat Arms currently has a major campaign underway.
Coinciding with these advertising blitzes, Nexon delivered major content updates to Mabinogi, MapleStory and Combat Arms, obviously not disappointing newcomers, and keeping long time players interested.
"We are serious about making Nexon the top brand in online gaming, and we are not backing on down our efforts to deliver more content to our customers or aggressively work to attract new players," said Kim. "We pioneered the free-to-play business model when we brought MapleStory to North America in 2005. With the slew of new games we have planned and the BlockParty initiative, which will bring players together like never before, we will continue to be the leader in this market for years to come."
So while this question hasn't really been at the forefront of the battle for a while, I think with Nexon's numbers, can we officially call this "but can it be profitable?" debate to rest? I think so.

The former president of South Bend's Board of Public Safety spoke out Monday night about the mayor's decision not to discipline the police chief after an Indiana State Police Investigation.
Chief Ron Teachman was accused of failing to back Lieutenant David Newton up when a large fight broke out at the Martin Luther King Jr. Center in April.
Buttigieg says Teachman was on his way to or inside the bathroom when the fight started. When Teachman outside, Buttigieg says the fight was over.
The incident was brought to light by Rev. Greg Brown at a common council meeting. The council eventually sent the matter to the Board of Public Safety, who asked state police to investigate.
That investigation wrapped up in September. After reading through the ISP report, Buttigieg decided not to discipline Teachman.
While the decision was up to him, he did meet with the Board of Public Safety since they were initially asked to look into the matter.
Former Board President Pat Cottrell disagreed with Buttigieg's decision not to discipline Teachman and resigned the same day over the issue.
Speaking before the council Monday, Cottrell asked them to hold an investigatory hearing to get more information about what happened in April at the King Center.
He says if the council looked into Teachman's statements about what happened that night, they would agree Buttigieg should have asked for the chief's resignation.
Cottrell says, contrary to Buttigieg's claims, one other member of the board thought Teachman should lose his job over the way he responded. Cottrell says a third board member pointed out the ways Teachman acted incorrectly, but didn't suggest discipline.
"The mayor based his decision on politics," Cottrell said. "You see, to do what two board of safety members recommended, to ask for Chief Teachman's resignation,would be to admit he - our mayor- had made a mistake in hiring this man. Who is unfit, in my opinion, to serve as chief."
Buttigieg has said repeatedly he stands by his decision and he will not release the ISP report because it's a personnel matter.
Lt. David Newton spoke to the council earlier in October and asked them to subpoena the report. He also claimed Buttigieg's decision was politically motivated.
Council President Derek Dieter says the issue will go back to the council's health and public safety committee.

A&A Manufacturing 556631 QuikPure3 Pool Ozone Oxidation System up to 50,000 Gallons
Short Description
That's right Ozone is the Ideal Oxidation system for your swimming pool and the Quikpure3 is the Ideal Ozone Generator.
Pool Ozonator Features:
QuikPure3 the Ozone Oxidation System! That's right Ozone is the Ideal Oxidation system for your swimming pool and the Quikpure3 is the Ideal Ozone Generator.
The Ozone Does It
Contaminates called combined chlorines or chloramines form in every pool to create that all-to-recognizable and harsh chlorine smell. It is actually these chloramines, not chlorine that creates that unpleasant smell. QuikPure3 instantly breaks apart and destroys the chloramines by producing ozone, the safest yet strongest oxidizer available. This leaves nothing but clear, clean water and a healthier family environment.
Saves You Money
Up to 70% of the chlorine or bromine (sanitizers) applied to a pool is used to oxidize or shock the water free of chloramines. With QuikPure3, chlorine and bromine use is dramatically lowered. That means almost no shocking your pool, and up to a 70% savings on sanitizer usage and costs may be realized. Costs of pH balancing, algaecides, clarifiers, and other filtering aids will also be reduced. Even more savings!
Saves Time
Since QuikPure3 works automatically each time the pool pump is operating, there is nothing for you to do but enjoy. Less time is needed for water balancing and shocking. Less time working means more time for fun!
Enjoy The Feel
When activated, the QuikPure3 continuously eliminates chloramines created within the pool area. The resulting high quality water often feels silky, smooth and soft to the skin and hair.
Enjoy The Green
Every where you look manufactures are into the Green effect or energy/efficiency savings. With the QuikPure3, you can have the comfort of knowing that you are benefiting from the most cost efficient sanitation combination on the marketplace, Ozone and Chlorine.

Stafford school has role in Anderson Cooper's Emmy
MORE: Read more Stafford County news
After television journalist Anderson Cooper snagged an Emmy this month, a Stafford County principal wondered if the school would get a mini version for the trophy case.
After all, students at Shirley Heim Middle School played an important part in the award-winning series "AC360 Special Report: Kids on Race, The Hidden Picture."
The school was one of six chosen throughout the country to participate in studies to see how children view race.
Producers chose Stafford County because they were looking for a school that represented a cross section of America, said Valerie Cottongim, spokeswoman for the school division.
"And Stafford really is a crossroad of America," she said.
Principal Mary Grace McGraw said the school has a diverse student body, with many races and nationalities. Of Shirley Heim's 910 students, 202 are black and 369 are white.
"It's kind of like a melting pot, which is nice and representative of what the world is like," McGraw said.
As part of the television series research, a psychologist came to Shirley Heim to interview 30 middle school students; half were black, and half were white.
The psychologist presented pictures of vague scenarios that included a white child and a black child. For example, one picture showed a child on the floor with his books around him and another child standing nearby.
Researchers showed children the pictures where the child on the floor was white and the child standing was black, then showed pictures that reversed the races of the children. They asked open-ended questions about the situations to gauge if a child was more likely to view the scenario negatively based on the racial makeup of the kids in the picture.
They then asked questions about racism and interracial friendships and dating.
After the study, CNN correspondent Soledad O'Brien came to Shirley Heim to interview some of the students. Then, some students and their parents were flown to New York to be part of the conversation with Cooper and O'Brien.
The series aired in early April—and that was the first time McGraw saw the show and the survey results.
The survey shed light on several issues surrounding racism. Children spoke about being rejected by friends because of their race and of being afraid to bring someone of a different race home to their families.
But the surveys also showed that students who attended diverse schools are more likely to have positive feelings about people of other races.
McGraw said that overall, she felt positive about the series.
"There's underlying racism—that kind of came out that it's always there to some degree. I don't know if it will ever be totally gone," she said. "But there's a greater acceptance our community has a variety of kids with different backgrounds and they seem to be accepted."

DALTON, Ga. — Try as he might, Mike Duffie cannot hide the frustration.
The Dalton High School boys' basketball coach has been around the game long enough to know when something isn't right, and what's happened to Tristen Harrell has Duffie a bit on edge. Harrell, the Catamounts' senior do-everything guard, has the profile to be a solid NCAA Division I recruit, even having excelled at a couple of prestigious summer camps.
He was named most valuable player of a camp in Birmingham that had about 280 players, including a dozen committed to Southeastern Conference schools, then was chosen one of the top 10 players at a camp in Atlanta.
However, whether it's the fact he's a relative late bloomer or just the area in which he's playing, Harrell never received any NCAA offer, even Division II. Instead, he will attend Auburn University at Montgomery, an NAIA Division I program that has been recruiting him for more than a year.
AUM is in the conference with Lee University, and coach and player are happy with the decision.
"It is frustrating, because he showed out at the camps and we got one phone call, but nothing after that," Duffie said. "Now, I believe he's made a good choice in Auburn-Montgomery, but I can't understand why he's not getting more notice. It could be the area. We're not exactly known as a basketball hotbed of Division I talent, and we don't play the traditional powers like Columbia and Tucker.
"But all I know is what I see, and he's got the talent to play at that [NCAA D-I] level. Coach [Larry] Chapman is getting a real steal."
Despite being the defensive focus of every opponent, the 6-foot-2 Harrell — the tallest player on the team — is averaging 22 points a game plus 10 rebounds, four assists and four steals for the 16-6 Catamounts. He recently went through a stretch of four games in which he didn't come off the court.
"We finally got him some rest the other night [in a blowout win], but otherwise he never comes off the court," Duffie said. "I mean, the kid never slows down, and he does so many things for us. That's what Coach Chapman loves about him. He can shoot, rebound and defend, and he makes everybody on the court better."
Though frustrated he didn't get any big-time offers, Harrell has accepted it. Instead of pouting, he uses the snub as motivation every time he takes the court.
"Sure, I would like to play D-I ball, but it just didn't happen," he said. "I just look at it like it's their loss and there's not much I can do about it except play hard every minute I'm on the court. Auburn-Montgomery is a good fit for me. Coach Chapman treats me like a second father, and I know a couple of guys there [Dalton grad Caz Cole and Sonoraville's Justin Zachary], so that will be nice."
Duffie looks forward to seeing Harrell continue to improve, and he believes everything has worked out for a reason.
"Hey, they want him and it's great to be wanted," he said. "Tristen's happy and it's an opportunity to prove a lot of people wrong. He'll definitely be a big fish in a small pond."

The Seven Year Kvetch September 12, 2013Posted by Wilhelm Arcturus in blog thing, entertainment.
Tags: Anniversary, Meaningless Milestones
kvetch [kvetsh] - /k(ə)veCH,kfeCH/
noun: kvetch; plural noun: kvetches
-a person who complains a great deal.
-a complaint.
verb: kvetch; 3rd person present: kvetches; past tense: kvetched; past participle: kvetched; gerund or present participle: kvetching
-to complain.
Yes, one of the joys of being an American is pissing all over the English language by letting in any damn word we please. I love our language, how it changes and evolves over time. I think it is the hallmark of us, as an immigrant nation, that we embrace people and cultures into our so-called melting pot, but that we also swipe some of the best words people bring with them as well. In contrast, I remain appalled by countries that have official government departments that dictate and enforce proper spelling and usage. Color me the anarchist in that regard I guess.
Sure, the chaos makes the language difficult to learn fully, being so full of idiom and context, but it is great fun. Straight from the fridge daddy-o.
So here we are at my 7th blogiversary (ha ha, suck that purists!), where I celebrate my continued deliberate and premeditated abuse of the language.
And since I love linking back to past posts (recycling!) you can find, if you are so inclined, posts marking this date from past years.
- A Year of Living Noobishly
- Two Years Below the Masthead
- Three Years We Grew in Virtual Sun and Shower
- Four Years In, No Further From Noobdom
- Heroic Results of the First Five Year Plan
- But Now I am Six, I'm as Clever as Clever
Now that I have gotten past that irrelevant introductory exuberance, it is time for the usual dreck. Beyond this point lies list after list of pointless data followed by my usual summary of events, complete with dubious and/or obvious conclusion. There is the story of my life; always able to summarize the data, but lost when actually trying for some sort of ending or closure. I am never quite sure what it all means, and I try not to pretend otherwise.
If you are like me and like numbers and lists for the sake of them or want some sort of quantitative look at what happens at this blog, you may find some of this interesting. It includes my usual reveal of actual traffic numbers.
On the other hand, if you are expecting to find an amusing anecdote about how I screwed up or got lost again, a nostalgic look at some past game, or an incoherent rant about some bit of gamery that is annoying me at the moment, you will likely be disappointed at what you find after the cut. You have been warned.
And we launch straight into things.
Basic Statistics
The same stats every year. I actually wrote less over the last 12 months than the previous period. I couldn't tell you why. Am I writing fewer longer posts? Also, I use a lot of pictures. Unlike some, I am quite visually oriented and a picture can set a mood, a scene, or a state of mind better than most text. We are what we are.
Days since launch: 2557 (+365)
Posts total: 2969 (+391)
Average posts per day: 1.16 (-0.03)

Where did you all come from? Well, most of you came from the US, the UK, Canada, or Australia, the largest English language speaking countries. The margin went down a bit from last year, but English speaking people oddly make up the majority of readers on a blog written in something resembling English!
Now for some pictures. First, the chart from Flag Counter widget in the side bar. It shows that people from 218 different countries… up nine from last year… have shown up here for one reason or another. You can click on the side bar widget if you want more details.
And then there is the WordPress.com map, which this year features more shades of orange.
Those shades are based on numbers are from Feb. 25, 2012 forward. The lightest shade of orange represents anything from 1 to 7,000 visits.
Here are the sites that sent me the most traffic over the last 12 months, each one a mensch!
- EVE News 24
- Jester's Trek
- Blessing of Kings
- VirginWorlds
- Popehat
- Hardcore Casual
- Player Versus Developer
- Google Reader
Search engines remain the primary source of traffic, with Google bringing in ten times the traffic of the second place on the list.
EVE News 24 breaks into the list this time mostly because Riverini's syndication of my post on the battle at 6VDT, which included a link back to the screen shot gallery here. Then we get into some of the usual suspects. Jester and Rohan have large followings who like to click on their blogrolls, while VirginWorlds remains popular even in its automated age. At Popehat I think I just gain from alphabetical preference, since my relevance there is debatable. Somebody will link here on Reddit now and again, often about learning to play a druid. SynCaine and I troll each other when not trolling Tobold. And Green Armadillo, another blogger.com user, has a popular side bar. I still envy the blogger.com blogroll features. And at the tail end there is Google Reader, which was recently killed off. I wonder what will replace it on the list next year?
And then, for the all time list, we have:
- VirginWorlds
- Blessing of Kings
- Jester's Trek
- WordPress.com
- EVE News 24
- Google Reader
- Keen and Graev
- Player Versus Developer
- Hardcore Casual
Again, Google rules, and the departure of Google Reader will mean somebody else will be climbing the list.
EQ2-Daily fell of the all time list as did Massive Blips, neither of which have been going concerns for a while now.
And where do I send traffic. Here are the top ten recipients for the last year.
- Blizzard
- Civilization Fanatics
- Wikipedia
- The Mittani.com
- EVE Online Pictures
- Jester's Trek
- Inventory Full
- Hardcore Casual
- Kickstarter
- Blessing of Kings
That seems like an odd list. Blizzard gets a lot of traffic because of the April Fool's thing. I usually post about what they did and then link back to my posts from previous years, which ends up sending a lot of people their way. I wasn't aware that it was that many people.
Civ Fanatics is purely based around one post about how to run Civilization II on Windows 7 64-bit.
Wikipedia is my link out for references I don't want to explain, while The Mittani is good for updates about EVE Online that are out of the scope of my own knowledge. Then there is my other blog, a source of EVE Online screen shots. And finally I get to some of my fellow bloggers, with Kickstarter mixed in because of the flurry of Kickstarter stuff that interested me this year.
When we get to the all time figures, things continue:
- Pokemon.com (various sites)
- Nick Yee's WoW Guild Name Generator
- Civilization Fanatics
- Wikipedia
- EVElopedia
- Blizzard
- Hardcore Casual
- Keen and Graev
- Blessing of Kings
- Kill Ten Rats

Categories and Tags
Over the life of the blog I have attempted to be consistent in my use of categories and tags in the interest of making like articles easier to find.
I have not been wholly successful to say the least.
Still, after all this time, a look at the usage totals for categories and tags will at least give some indication of what I have been writing about for the last seven year. I leave aside the category "entertainment," which gets applied to every post. There was a WordPress.com reason for doing that at one point, though I would gather that has faded.
Categories are the most consistent and represent the number of posts in which I speak of a given game or topic in a general sense. This list, in its way, also reflects the games I have spent the most time playing over the years, since I write about what I am playing for the most part.
Ten Most Used Categories
- World of Warcraft (787)
- EVE Online (664)
- EverQuest II (527)
- EverQuest (417)
- Lord of the Rings Online (318)
- Sony Online Entertainment (291)
- Instance Group (243)
- Blizzard (234)
- Humor (217)
- Misc MMOs (170)
Tags are a little more obscure. They are assigned as something of a sub-category. If I have managed to apply them consistently, they are useful. You can, for example, find all my posts about the war in Fountain by clicking on the tag in one of those posts. However, I tend to use them haphazardly unless I have a plan in advance, and often I use them to color or qualify how a post should be viewed. So there are tons of tags on the site… almost 2,400 at this point… but few get more than dozen uses, and nearly 1,500 of them were used exactly once. Here are the ones I have stuck with.
Ten Most Used Tags
- null sec (122)
- Fippy Darkpaw (76)
- Progression Server (70)
- Nostalgia (56)
- YouTube (56)
- Free-to-Play (44)
- Pokemon SoulSilver (38)
- contest (37)
- Cataclysm (34)
- Quote of the Day (32)
I am sure that says something. I am just not sure what. At least it seems to indicate that I kept consistent when tagging my null sec adventures in EVE Online as well as my posts about the EverQuest Fippy Darkpaw progression server. Sort of. Why don't "Progression Server" and "Fippy Darkpaw" match up? Or what isn't "Progression Server" a larger number? Not very consistent after all I guess.
Mistakes I Still Make Seven Years Later
Aside from how often my fingers type words that are similar yet different from what my brain expects them to type… which happens disturbingly often… there are still some dumb mistakes I make in posting even after years of doing the blog thing.
Proofread After Posting – I only seem capable of detecting typos and such once a post has gone live. I can reread it a dozen times, look at it in preview mode, but the moment everybody can see it, the mistakes are suddenly highlighted in red for me. Or at least the obvious ones are visible. I would say that you should never read anything I have posted until the next day, when I have correct the problems, but I still go back to old posts and find mistakes I cannot believe I missed. So clearly I am bad at the whole proofreading thing.
Posting Before I Am Ready – There are two buttons on the right side of the edit window that are too close for my own good, the "save" and the "publish" buttons. I have hit that "publish" button by mistake too many times. Sometimes, when I am close to publishing anyway, I will try and roll with it and just keep updating. You might have seen posts that got longer as the day went on. And sometimes I am not anywhere close to done and I have to try to undo the post, kill the automated syndication, and generally spend about half an hour in panic mode before I have cleaned things up.
I have found a work-around for this. It has now become my norm to schedule a post in advance, setting its publication time/date as I am writing it. This removes the "publish" button and replaces it with "update." That mostly works, except that once in a while "update" doesn't quite work like "save" and I lose changes. I lost that last paragraph once already. And I worry that I will schedule a post, not finish it, and forget about it, only to find a half written article with no conclusion publishing itself one day. Actually, I worry that nobody would notice anything out of the ordinary with that.
Forgetting The Title – When I start writing a post, I put in a placeholder title. Then I go on to write the post, click the dreaded "publish" button, only to realize that I left the placeholder in the title field. This problem is compounded by the fact that the title field is the only field on the editing page that gets ignored by spell check. So I have posted any number of posts with misspelled and/or poorly worded titles. You can tell when I fix them because I do not change the URL, so the mistake persists.
Department of Redundancy Department – I favor certain turns of phrase and patterns and connecting words and the like. In fact, I favor them so much that I tend to over-use them. I attribute this to the fact that I write in something of a conversational tone. If you were speaking to me, I would likely structure my sentences in exactly the same fashion. This shows up a lot in my "month in review" posts, in the sections cover events from one and five years ago. I will get done putting everything in and realize that I have used the word "meanwhile" to start six different entries. That isn't so bad in conversation where the spoken word, once spoken, disappears never to be heard again. But in text, there are six instances of "meanwhile" staring you in the face. So I have to go back and fix that often. Once I came upon 13 sentences in a row that started with the word "and." I don't mind abusing the "rule" about not starting a sentence with a conjunction, but 13 in a row seemed like I was stretching the point. Fortunately, the first 12 of those sentences worked just fine with "and" omitted from the front. At least this seems to be one thing I can spot, for the most part, before I hit the "publish" button.
In-line Editing – I will write a post and begin to review it in the edit window before publishing. And, in doing so, my eye will alight upon what strikes me as an awkward phrase. So I will change it without bothering to read the rest of the sentence. Why? I don't know. There is clearly something wrong with my brain. And then I will publish the post, read it, and wonder what in the hell I was thinking, as the whole sentence won't make a lick of sense. Generally I end up returning to the awkward phrasing, which is generally not awkward when viewed as part of a larger whole.
Anyway, I would like to think there was a lesson in all of this or that, in writing about it, that I demonstrated my ability to learn and adapt. But the best I can really say is that at least I am aware of some of my flaws.
Some Numbers
As I have said in the past, I do not post page view numbers for the blog that often. I quite enjoy looking at the numbers, but I don't want them to become a sort of e-peen comparison thing. Page views do not correlate to quality, nor do they bestow any special status. My "best" posts, in my opinion, rarely get the most page views. Many people write better or more insightful posts on their blogs and do not get as much recognition as they deserve. And lots of dumb things get way more attention that they deserve. One of the amusing bits about the whole AdBlock tempest in a teapot was the number of sites that came out and admitted that they posted mostly exploitative crap designed to drive page views as opposed to inform or educate. The crap, they say, pays for the good stories. Unfortunately, for a couple of the sites that brought that up, I am still waiting for those good stories to appear. Free to play is the same everywhere, revenue drives what gets done.
Anyway, so page views are just a thing, I keep them to myself except on special occasions.
As it so happens, the seven year anniversary of the blog happened to coincide with passing the three million page view mark. Special occasion! So here is a glimpse into the page view history of the blog.
As you can see, I am in decline. Whether that is me, the overall interest in MMO blogs, or changes to how Google works, if you don't like the site you can take some comfort in the fact that it is fading in popularity, at least by the only measure I have.
But three million page views over seven years seems like a lot to me. That is certainly a couple million more than I ever expected when I set off on this journey. I expected something more akin to the traffic on my other blog. So I am happy. But there are sites out there that get that much a year, a month, a day, or even an hour I am sure. So it really isn't a matter of doing better or worse than anybody. Well, except for SynCaine. I want to have more page views than him.
The Future
This is the bit… very much like every other bit in this post… where I write nearly the same spiel I did the previous year. So sue me.
As like as not, the routine will not change. I generally say something about writing less and playing more… and I suppose I did write a little bit less, or at least hit the publish button a little bit less over the past 12 months… but in the end habits are tough to change.
So you can expect tales from whatever games I and the regular group end up playing, gripes about whatever is bugging me in the industry, and occasionally lapses into nostalgia.
For those of you who have been along for all, or at least some part, of the last seven years, thank you for dropping by. The story will continue. Now I need to start working on a title for the "year 8″ post. Eight is Never Enough?
And at this point, I will take any blogging related questions from the audience. Anybody?

Wow, that was an informative post. Enjoyed reading it as I love these kinds of blogging analytics. Here's to another successful year at TAGN!

Can't edit my comment so here's a double post…
I'd like to see more posts regarding MUD/MMO design. I may be an outlier but I've browsed through most of your archive and those are the types of posts that tend to keep me the most engaged. Design topics related to character progression, economy, environments, game mechanics, etc.
- 6. Mekhios - September 12, 2013
I've always been impressed at the ability of famous bloggers like Wilhelm to continually post high quality and regular content to their blogs. I have tried the same but I simply can not maintain a regular blog.
I either exhaust content or I become complacent and let it fall by the wayside. I am also horrible at grammar and typing so that tends to act as a natural deterrent to my blogging efforts.
I will simply have to be content with being a regular reader and occasional comment poster. :)
- 9. bhagpuss - September 13, 2013
Congratulations on another year and long may it continue. I find these annual summations very useful – bloggers are almost as cagy about their stats as MMO companies are about their population figures so it's great to have some hard numbers to benchmark against.
I make pretty much all the same mistakes you do and I don't doubt that when I've been at it as long as you have little will have changed in that respect. The whole "only seem capable of detecting typos and such once a post has gone live" is particularly and horribly familiar. I think it's a direct function of subconsciously knowing that there is no irrevocable cut-off point after which mistakes cannot be corrected. Short of hitting the "Publish" button nothing triggers the monitor function of the brain, and even then it's not guaranteed because at some level the brain knows corrections can still be made.
I draw this conclusion from a comparison with the fifteen or so years I published hard-copy fanzines and apazines in which probably fewer typos/errors went to print in an entire year than I now publish in a single blog post. Back then, when the printing press or the photocopier finished its run you were stuck with what you'd got. If you really felt something *had* to be fixed then it would cost a meaningful amount of money and one hell of an inconvenience to correct it. On a blog it costs nothing and the deadline for corrections is the day the internet shuts down or the heat-death of the universe, whichever comes sooner so is it surprising the brain takes a holiday?.
I was delighted to see Inventory Full make an appearance in your outgoing traffic top 10. TAGN is 6th in my All Time Top 10 referents but doesn't appear in the ten at all for the last month. I got a huge hit from the April Fool link and there's a noticeable up-tick every time you direct-link me but on an average month I get more traffic from sites with the Blogger real-time updated blogroll, not surprisingly. You're right to envy that function.
I'm pleased but not at all smug to report that my daily page-views are growing but like you I am more interested in seeing active, constructive comment threads. Fortunately those are also on the up. As far as page views go, I'm now around a third of your current, depleted total, which is way beyond what I ever expected to reach. I find it very hard to imagine that in five years time I'll even be where I am now, let alone where you are, which really puts your achievement into perspective.
So congratulations again and keep on doing what you do so well!

You may not know her name, but 15-year-old actress Nicola Peltz – who stars in the upcoming M. Night Shyamalan fantasy The Last Airbender – could be changing that very soon. Here's why:
M. Night gives her a rave review.
"I told the studio I didn't want to make this movie without her," Shyamalan tells PEOPLE. "I said that only once before in my career, and that was when I met Haley [Joel Osment] in the Sixth Sense auditions." They're buds off-camera, too: He came to Peltz's 15th birthday party with his daughters.

Catching Up With a Loser: Mitt Romney
Get ready to meet the wealthiest member of our chronologically ordered Presidential Loser Series…former one-term Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney!
Romney's record as a Republican governor of a blue state and his rock-solid hair gave him major corporate cred as a candidate. But Romney faced unfair criticism from those who disapproved of his Mormon faith, a historically off-limits topic. He countered this by giving voters a great number of legitimate things to hate him for, including:
* Amassing a vast personal fortune by closing factories and laying off workers as CEO of Bain Capital.
* Disparaging Massachusetts — whose voters gave him his only job in politics — like a red-headed stepchild.
* Incorrectly predicting same-sex marriage would result in the collapse of America as a world power.
* Proposing that America double the size of Guantanamo Bay prison, while simultaneously expressing his hope that its inmates never receive access to lawyers.
* Relentlessly pimping a family so white, it would make Norman Rockwell squint.
Romney financed his ego trip campaign with 42.3 million dollars he found lying in a sock drawer, and in return he amassed a cool 271 delegates. This was 920 short of what he needed for the nomination, but to be fair it was 271 times what Rudy Giuliani got.
Romney endured through the primary season for as long as he could, knowing that defeat would mean a return to his dreaded Massachusetts. That said, he only lasted until February 7, two days after Super Tuesday.
As of press time, Romney is serving as John McCain's attack dog, and is said to be high on the list of potential running mates for the Republican nominee. Should he be passed over, look for Bain Capital to purchase the U.S. Government, lay off its workers, and sell it at a profit to Dubai.

"This is my first experience using an online company to have an invitation printed and I am so happy it was with Tinyprints. Overall I am very pleased with the invitations. The customer service is awesome as well!"
"I brought these for my wife's baby shower and I got to say I'm impressed with the quality of the cards plus the RSVP service that comes with it."
"I just got in from a really long day at work. My invitation really put a smile on my face. I really love everything about the card. Thanks Tinyprints!!!"
"Having a baby in Febuary made this a perfect choice. The winter white and gold was a the answer to the fact that my daughter did not want to know if it's a girl or boy. I had to stay away from the blue and pink choices when designing a baby shower invite. It was elegant. I was also able to squeeze a sentence in about bringing a book for the baby's library instead of a card with a note from our guest. The staff was helpful with editing that fit perfectly. It did cost a bit more to mail because it was square but not much. I loved it."
"All of my friends and family really like the invite and think it is really cute. Nice, heavy paper and the print on the back is perfect! Definitely different from the usual fill in the blank shower invite. Also, having it printed up and getting the return address on the envelope are huge time savers!"

5 A Day - What Counts
Almost all fruit and vegetables count towards your 5 A DAY. What's more there's no limit to how much you can consume - so the more you eat, the better. It's also good to know that you should eat a variety of fruit and vegetables to get the maximum nutritional benefits. This is because they each contain different combinations of fibre, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. Besides, eating the same ones every day would be boring.
You probably won't have to dramatically change your diet to reach the recommended amount of fruit and veg you should eat. From takeaways to ready meals, fruit and vegetables can be found in many things you eat, you just need to know where to look.
Have a look at the following guidelines and you'll soon be on your way to 5 A DAY:
Fresh, frozen, chilled, canned, 100% juice and smoothies all count, as do dried fruit and vegetables
Fruit and vegetables don't have to be eaten on their own to count. You can also include any vegetables found in soups, stews, sandwiches and other dishes
Fruit and vegetables contained in convenience foods like ready meals, pasta sauces, soups and puddings, also contribute to your 5 A DAY. However, these ready-made foods can be high in salt, sugar and fat, which should only ever be eaten in moderation, so it's important to check the nutrition information on the labels and packaging
Dietary supplements like vitamins and minerals do not count towards 5 A DAY. This is because many dietary supplements don't have the same nutritional benefits as fruit and vegetables
Potatoes and other related vegetables such as yams and cassava do not count. This is because they are classified as starchy foods
Portion sizes
The guide below will give you an indication of what a portion size should be, what counts and what doesnt.
(These portion sizes are for adults. Children under five should also eat at least 5 portions of a variety of fruit and vegetables a day, but the sizes may be smaller.)
Portion guide tables
Quick guide to fruit portions:
Fresh fruit:
Small-sized fruit: 2 or more, for example 2 plums, 2 satsumas, 3 apricots, 2 kiwi fruit, 7 strawberries, 14 cherries, 6 lychees
Medium-sized fruit: 1 medium fruit, such as 1 apple, banana, pear, orange, nectarine, or 1 sharon fruit
Large fruits: half a grapefruit, 1 slice of papaya, 1 slice of melon (2-inch slice), 1 large slice of pineapple, 2 slices of mango (2-inch slices)
Dried fruit:
1 tablespoon of raisins, currants, sultanas, 1 tablespoon of mixed fruit, 2 figs, 3 prunes, 1 handful of banana chips
Tinned fruit:
Roughly the same quantity of fruit that you would eat as a fresh portion: 2 pear or peach halves, 6 apricot halves, 8 segments of tinned grapefruit
A glass (150ml) of 100% juice (fruit or vegetable juice or smoothie) counts as 1 portion, but you can only count juice as 1 portion per day, however much you drink. This is mainly because it contains very little fibre. Also, the juicing process 'squashes' all the natural sugars out of the cells that normally contain them, which can be harmful for teeth - especially if you drink a lot of it in between meals
Quick guide to vegetable portions:
Green vegetables:
2 broccoli spears, 8 cauliflower florets, 4 heaped tablespoons of kale, spring greens or green beans
Cooked vegetables:
3 heaped tablespoons of cooked vegetables such as carrots, peas or sweetcorn
Salad vegetables:
3 sticks of celery, 2 inch piece of cucumber, 1 medium tomato, 7 cherry tomatoes
Tinned and frozen vegetables:
Roughly the same quantity as you would eat as a fresh portion. For example, 3 heaped tablespoons of tinned or frozen carrots, peas or sweetcorn
Pulses and beans:
3 heaped tablespoons of baked beans, haricot beans, kidney beans, cannelloni beans, butter beans or chick peas. Remember that beans and pulses do count, but only as 1 of the 5 portions, no matter how much you eat
Potatoes and other related root vegetables:
Because they are considered a 'starchy' food, potatoes don't count towards your 5 A DAY. (Starchy foods are foods like potatoes, rice, pasta and bread.) Were not suggesting you dont eat them, but they should form the starchy carbohydrate part of your meal
All adults and children over five years of age should be encouraged to eat a varied, balanced diet that is low in fat, salt and added sugars. This means a diet which includes a wide variety of foods, plenty of fruit and vegetables and starchy foods (such as bread, rice, potatoes and pasta), moderate amounts of meat and/or alternatives and moderate amounts of milk and dairy products.

Governor Jindal's Campaign Finance Director Assaulted After Jindal Fundraiser
Gov. Bobby Jindal's chief campaign fund-raiser is recovering from injuries she suffered in a Friday night altercation with a group of people in the French Quarter, the governor's office said Monday.
Allee Bautsch suffered a broken leg and her boyfriend suffered a concussion and a fractured nose and jaw in the incident, which happened after a fundraising event at Brennan's Restaurant on behalf of the Louisiana Republican Party on Friday evening.
Jindal was at the fund-raising event at the restaurant, but was not present when the incident occurred.
Kyle Plotkin, a Jindal spokesman, said Bautsch had surgery during the weekend and is facing a recovery time of two to three months.
"NOPD is investigating the incident and we are refraining from further comment to allow them to fully investigate and ensure justice is done," Plotkin said. "Our prayers are with Allee. She is a strong person and we are sure she will make a speedy recovery."
Two things: I certainly hope Ms. Bautsch and her boyfriend recuperate quickly, and that whoever is responsible for this assault is arrested and brought to justice.
I have to wonder: This happened on Friday night, so why was it first reported Monday afternoon? (Just asking; not pointing any fingers).
Jim Bob #
Seems a little fishy to me… "altercation with a group of people" in the French Quarter sounds like a drunken brawl..April 12, 2010
yeah, women brawl all of the time. lamar, your are a real prick!!!!April 13, 2010
why did you find this story blog worthy, lamar? was it b/c a man and woman got the crap beat out of them on bourbon street. no. it was b/c she works for the jindal administration and it was reported 3 days later. so now we have a big conspiracy. instead of talking about the cesspool of crime and corruption that has become new orleans, you post this crap. oh well, guess you didnt want to offend your blogger friends down in the big easy.April 13, 2010
I think that since the police are still investigating what happened that we shouldn't be quick to assign blame and assign victim status.
I agree that if it turns out that she and her boyfriend are actually victims that those who assaulted her should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. I would even argue that if she was a victim that it could possibly be a hate crime because of where she was (depending on who did it).
However, since we do not know the details we cannot know who started the fight and why it got to a point where her leg got broken. Let the police do their job.April 13, 2010

Mr. Cook-
The reason we wonder about an incident in which Piyushites get the crap beat out of them and a) don't report it to NOPD until the next day, and b) it takes three (3) days for it to be reported in the news make us wonder what really happened. First, it follows the pattern of secrecy of her bosses administration. If they were attacked without provocation or fault you would think the cops would have been called immediately. Or maybe somebody didn't like their pimp and ho outfits.April 13, 2010
i'm sure it wasn't some of those crazy libs hanging around and protesting. i mean only conservative protestors are violent, right? the fact that any of you condone the beating of a woman in any situation shows alot about the character of "ahem" men you are. you act like she and her boyfriend are the guilty ones b/c it wasn't reported until later.April 13, 2010
Who is condoning the beating of a woman? I must have missed that. I sure haven't.
It does raise questions if the police were not called immediately. Why would you not call the police immediately? I am not sure where people are getting that they waited to call the police though. I see no mention of when the police were called in the article.
I think people like yourself, Mr. Cook, are quick to assume that she is a "victim". Let the police determine that.April 13, 2010
i think alot of you hope like hell that she and her boyfriend were the aggressors regardless of what happened to her. and yes i think people like yourself would be okay with it if it turns out a man broke her leg.April 13, 2010
per the AP and i'm paraphrasing "looking for 3 to 5 white males, one with a beard and ponytail, who fled the scene after the female fell and broke her leg."
cowards. that includes you and your 2 buddies that have responed to me about my comments. the media is trying real hard to not state the obvious. these douchebags were protesting outside brennan's and got into a verbal altercation that escalated and ran when the woman was hurt. i was raised differently i guess. the mysoginism displayed by the left is sickening. i guarantee if the odds were 5 to 5 there would have never been a physical altercation. but 3 to 5 guys against 1 guy and 1 girl. cowards would take those odds any day.April 14, 2010
Mr Cook: We have this little concept in our country called "innocent until proven guilty". All involved in the incident should be treated as such until proven otherwise. So to call anybody in this incident a "victim" is premature. How do you know who took the first swing?
Your false assumption that I, or anyone else for that matter, WANT the campaign staffer of Bobby Jindal (or her boyfriend) to have been the aggressor is just pure made up right wing propaganda garbage. In fact I HOPE she wasn't the aggressor because all this state needs is another embarrassment coming from the office of the Governor.
And I will point out one thing, just to show how anxious you are to pin this on liberals:
"While there were protesters outside the event at Brennan's, it is not know[n] if they were involved in the incident. "
You are ASSUMING both that the couple is innocent of any wrongdoing in this matter AND that the other people involved are part of those protesting. You have no reason to make such assumptions.
Governor Jindal is smart enough to know that we should refrain from speculation until the matter is resolved. You should follow your hero and do the same.April 14, 2010
first of all, governor jindal is not my hero. i voted for him last election, but would not vote for him for dog catcher if he were to run. with that being said, it is a shame you don't have the intellectual honesty to admit that if these were 2 people leaving a democrat function and were attacked, the main stream media would be shouting from the roof tops that the tea party was responsible!!! hell madow and olbermann would be doing thier shows nightly from the french quarters. my whole point in this is two fold, i would be any amount of money that 1. the police were called when the couple showed up at hospital and 2. that the media chose not run the story until later b/c of who it was. Also, i dont care if the people attacked were black, white, liberal, conservative, gay or straight, i would have done my best to step in and help even the odds. i may have toted away an ass whipping, but i would have tried to make a difference b/c no one deserves to be brutally beaten, i dont care who you are. i was raised differently, right is right and wrong is wrong. spend your life living in the gray area. that way you dont really have to stand for anything.April 14, 2010
Dan: If I was there and two people were being assaulted, I wouldn't care WHO they were I would help out as well.
Again, you make more false accusations about who I am or what I would do in the situation.
You are blinded by your hatred of the left and it is clouding your judgment.
Personally, I am annoyed by any news media outlet that sensationalizes the pain of other people and uses it for profit. I wish that in cases where potential crimes are involved that the media would stay out of it and just let the justice system prevail. It doesn't matter to me who the victim is, what political affiliation they hold, or what other group we can push them into.
To me, the job of the media should be to expose when justice is NOT prevailing and people are failing to take action. In this case it seems to me that the police are investigating the matter and trying to determine who is at fault so whoever is at fault can be brought to justice. That is all I ask for, yet for some reason you keep insisting on attacking me because I am a "liberal".
It is really pathetic.April 14, 2010
IT WASNT A 'DRUNKEN BRAWL" NOR AN "ALTERCATION" IT WAS AN ATTACK BY LIBERALS , THEY STOMPED ON HER LEG TILL IT BROKE IN 5 PLACES , A BROKEN JAW A FRACTURED NOES AND A CONCUSSION , ALL THIS B/C YOU HAVE DIFFERENT POLITICAL IDEALS ??? WTF??? WTF???April 18, 2010
Will, nobody should get assaulted for their political beliefs and if after the investigation is complete it turns out that this is what happened, the guilty people should be charged with hate crimes.
I have seen no links showing wh0 threw the first punch. Do you have any links showing that?April 18, 2010
obviously i friend danielzed was absent the day common sense was handed out.April 20, 2010
my not iApril 20, 2010
you honestly believe that a man escorting his lady friend after a gathering is going to throw the 1st punch when confronted by atleast 3 and possibly 5 men. like i said….April 20, 2010
Dan C: I don't know the boyfriend so I do not know what he is capable of. I also do not know how much alcohol (i.e. liquid bravery) he had that night that might cause him to take an action that he might otherwise not have taken.
You can assume all you want about what happened that night. You can speculate all you want about what scenarios you feel are more likely than others.
I choose to not speculate on guilt. To me, that is common sense. If you think that common sense means that you jump to conclusions without all the facts, then you have a bizarre definition of "common sense".April 20, 2010
"I also do not know how much alcohol (i.e. liquid bravery) he had that night that might cause him to take an action that he might otherwise not have taken."
none of the stories and reports i've read said anything about drinking or liquid courage. are you assuming they were drinking? you reek of intellectual dishonesty, zed. you fail to acknowledge the fact that had this been a couple leaving a dem. function and were attackws, you and the rest of the lib. nation would want heads on a stick. hell we have an ex president as well as our current president convicting the tea party for violence that has yet to happpen. like i said the level of dishonesty shown by the left. you know the the old "throw enough crap against the wall, some of it will stick" mantra.April 21, 2010
I did not assume that they had anything to drink. As I said… I don't know how much he may have had. He may have had none.
If this was a Democratic function I would also be calling for a full investigation into the matter and that people shouldn't jump to conclusions before all the facts are known.
So are you basically saying that because some people would jump to conclusions if it was two liberals who got hurt that it is ok to jump to conclusions because two conservatives got hurt? When you got in trouble as a kid, did you try the "but they did it too" excuse? How did that work for ya?
"like i said the level of dishonesty shown by the left. you know the the old "throw enough crap against the wall, some of it will stick" mantra."
Right, because that is a "liberal" thing.. because conservatives never do that… especially in the healthcare debate.
Please. Both sides are guilty of disingenuousness.April 21, 2010

What is it?
As if you don't know. This seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf is almost clinically evolutionary in its feel and appearance, yet it is ground-up fresh technology from its MQB platform to the all-new motors in its subtly more angular body.
There is no getting away from the fact the Golf is a recipe that works and Volkswagen would be bonkers to change it. The 29 million they've sold since it was launched in 1974 proves this.
Here we're testing the 138bhp 1.4 TSI in top-spec GT trim, complete with seven-speed DSG gearbox (a six-speed manual is standard) and cylinder deactivation, which actually makes this 109g/km petrol engine cleaner than the lower-powered, 120bhp version of the same 1.4 TSI that will sit beneath it in the range and go without cylinder management. Also on offer will be an 84bhp 1.2 TSI, a 104bhp 1.6 TDI and a 148bhp 2.0 TDI.

Another day, another new cult video label, though I dare say this one has me excited. Vinegar Syndrome (a subsidiary of the Process Blue restoration lab) take their name from that horrid destructive condition that has thankfully ignored my own meager 8-and-16mm library, and their aim is to rescue as many exploitation obscurities as they can manage from that same undignified and smelly fate. They've taken as their debut project a triple feature (in Blu-ray / DVD combo pack) of rare Herschell Gordon Lewis sexploiters, and by virtue of the HGL pedigree alone I can't very well not support that. They've got a few other tasty morsels lined up for DVD and Blu-ray release as well, like Massage Parlor Murders, Savage Water and Death by Invitation, but what really has me excited for VinSyn's future is this tidbit from their "About" page:
Film restoration can easily become a tricky subject especially with a lack of general consensus on how to do it 'right.' Our goal is to as accurately as possible recreate a theatrical viewing experience. We never employ any noise/grain reduction and use digital restoration tools only to remove or reduce severe image damage.
What's that, you say? A label that just wishes to bring their properties to home video in as authentic-to-source a manner as possible while avoiding the digital pitfalls suffered by majors and minors alike? VinSyn are pushing all sorts of the right buttons with me, and here's hoping it translates into plenty of groovy grindhouse video releases in the process.
As for The Lost Films of Herschell Gordon Lewis triple feature Blu-ray / DVD combo pack, it streets January 8th and can be pre-ordered either directly through Vinegar Syndrome (free US shipping!) or through standard outlets like Amazon.com. The details, copied from the press release, are quoted below:
The Lost Films of Herschell Gordon Lewis
Three previously thought lost sexploitation features from Herschell Gordon Lewis, the acclaimed master of exploitation cinema.
ECSTASIES OF WOMEN (1969) is a torrid comedy/drama set in the swinging world of late 60s Los Angeles.
LINDA AND ABILENE (1969) combines the savagery of a classic Hollywood western with sequences of intense eroticism.
BLACK LOVE (1971) exposes the lovemaking habits of the contemporary black couple through a series of amusing and creative vignettes.
All three films have been restored in 2K from their original camera negatives and are being released on home video for the first time anywhere in the world!
Blu-Ray/DVD Combo Pack Bonus Features:
– Original theatrical trailers for each film
– Extensive historical liner notes
– Special edition lab cards for each film
For samples from the 2k restorations of each film check VinSyn's blog post here. They look damn good to me, so good that I've already pre-ordered a copy for the Wtf-Film video shelf. After the relative disappointment of Image / Something Weird's HGL treatments I can't wait to get my paws on this…
