In classical economic theory, price of particular good is most important factor for consumer's decision to whether buy that good or not. And price of particular good is determined by supply and demand curve. Which is called equilibrium price. And at supplier gets highest profit at equilibrium price.
1 unit of Amazon `Fire TV` is $99 Thus $99 is equilibrium price. And Amazon can earn maximum profit by selling 1 unit of `Fire TV` at $99. At least in theory.
All the consumers who's willing to pay more than $99 for `Fire TV` will buy them. Therefore total revenue from selling `Fire TV` can be calculated by $99 * number of consumers who's willing to pay $99 or higher. This is supply and demand model from microeconomics.
Nicholas Lovell has explained excellently in his post here about price determination for digital goods and race to zero for whole digital game market.
What I will try to explain is price determination in individual F2P game as closed economy from my own experience with live service of F2P MMORPG.
Let's assume that you've developed and released a game called `Game X` and somehow managed to draw 1,000 people to play your game. So You have 1,000 user base for your `Game X` and you have to somehow make them pay for your hard work of developing `Game X`. Your First instinct is introduce subscription model to your `Game X`. 1,000 people enjoyed playing your game thus far. So at least some of them are willing to pay small monthly fee to keep playing `Game X` right?
Korean MMORPG developers had gone through same thought process `Nexus: The Kingdom of the Winds`(1996) like this. It started as free and after some time introduced subscription model. Same goes for all the MMORPG in the world at late 1990's and early 2000's. They started as free (or you can play free until level X) and introduced subscription model later.
At first it worked. Many of users at free phase left, but enough paying user remained to keep business going. But as competition grows, subscription model didn't work anymore. There are two problems with subscription model.
Digital product has negligible production cost, there is no supply curve in supply demand model for Free to Play games.
Figure II shows what happened with subscription model MMORPG. At a P1 price your `Game X` had Revenue1, which was satisfying and enough to pay for the maintenance cost of `Game X`. But as time goes by user base has shrunken and you have Revenue2, which is not enough to pay the maintenance cost and you are not happy at all.
At this phase you might think that lowering subscription price for `Game X` will increase your revenue. But as Figure III shows that whatever the price is, you can never earn as much as Revenue1.
Fundamental reason why revenue decrease is shrunken user base. But it is next to impossible to increase user base due to intense competition. What will you do? Forget the `Game X` and move on to the next project `Game X2`? That is one option. But there is more safer and cost effective solution. That solution is called `Free to Play`.
By selling different product at different prices, you can earn even bigger revenue than `Revenue1` with smaller user base. (Sum of red areas in Figure IV). So you decided to adopt F2P model for `Game X` and not long after, you found there is extra benefits of introducing F2P model.
For subscription games, subscription price is acting as entrance wall for new users. But for F2P games, there is literally no entrance wall. With proper marketing, user base could grow even with aged game. Games like `Maplestory`, `Dungeon & Fighter` was actually growing long after release. Not just in terms of profit but also in cultural influence and user base.
But that's another story at another time. Let's return to our `Game X` with shrinking user base. You introduced F2P model and you were able to earn revenue closer to your prime time revenue of `Revenue1`…… only for a short time. After sometime you realize that production cost for F2P merchandise is not negligible at all. To be profitable with F2P model, you need different merchandise at different prices. Creating those requires many peoples hard work. Say, that you are selling horses for `Game X` in your shelve you will have $19.99 for premium horse, $9.99 for average horse, $2.99 for crappy horse. you will have to create such merchandise for every month. What will you sell after horses? Unicorn? Griffin? Dragons? Commercially available idea runs out really fast and it becomes impossible to balancing all those merchandises.
There is easy and simple solution for this problem. Actually all the RPG game have this solution at the very core of game design itself. Japanese named this solution as `Gashapon`. Users pay X amount of money/gold/time and they get the reward based on fixed probability table. Gashapon can cover all the price range with single product, encourages impulsive purchase. And most importantly, It is highly cost effective. Lottos sells tens of millions dollars for every week without any need of developing new product. If `Game X` has stable economy, you can make Gashapon with existed resources within the game itself.
Now you packed Gashapon with in-game resources and put it on your shelve with $0.99 price tag. Any paying user who's willing to pay more than $0.99 they will buy Gashapon until their maximum spending capacity. Single merchandise with negligible development cost can cover whole red areas in `Figure IV`. And you can do it over and over again for every month or so. Users got tired of Gashapon? Don't worry, putting balance breaking item inside Gashapon as a bait and little bit of marketing tweak will persuade them to buy again and again. And not long after you company account will be filled with hundreds millions of dollars.
You may feel something wrong here. Isn't Gashapon is exploiting psychological weaknesses regarding gambling behavior? What about providing actual fun and value for users? Do our users get what they deserve for their money?
Well… that's the capitalism. I guess.
|Michael Stevens
It's probably worth noting that using set-based Gachapon is illegal in Japan, so you have to be careful if you don't want to step on different region's gambling laws. And I'm not sure that implementing gachapon is a solution to the issues you see with à la carte DLC. Obfuscating the prizes behind a randomization doesn't necessarily reduce the number of assets you need to produce. One of the secrets to Puzzle&Dragons is that it adds new monsters frequently. If you're randomizing such a central element of the game you need to at least be giving players items they haven't seen with some frequency, otherwise you risk fatiguing your mid-low budget players (which in turn will critically injure the player base for most designs).
|Ara Shirinian
That is most certainly not the capitalism. That is the psychopath's road to earning money by the most effective means possible without regard to any other variables. Capitalism at its essence is profiting by providing value for customers whose lives are improved by the transaction.
|Luis Blondet
"Users got tired of Gachapon? Dont worry, putting balance breaking item inside Gachapon as a bait and little bit of marketing tweak will persuade them to buy again and again. And not long after you company account will be filled with hundreds millions of dollars."
|Curtiss Murphy
Ubisoft's Trials-Fusion (mobile) uses the slot-Gachapon style behavior. Random roll determines a race, and if you win, you get a random rewards - which you can spend hard-currency to spin again. In addition, at the end of each race, you get a random bike part by spinning a dial. This impacts game-play very early in the process.
Supercell's Boom Beach has no Gachapon style mechanics that I can see. And it is VERY generous with both hard currency and free gameplay.
|Josh Charles
I miss gaming.
|JoseArias NikanoruS
"Well thats the capitalism. I guess."
Hahahaha, well said!
I've thought for some time that the worst problem with capitalism is that it appeals to emotions that may be harmful for humanity on the long term (like egotism or taking advantage of other people's weaknesses as if they were objects to be exploited and not humans).
|Paul Schwanz
Actually, you covered "the capitalism" in your classical economics discussion on supply and demand. Exploiting psychological weaknesses to increase revenue is simply the greed. Trying to obfuscate the greed behind a political appeal would be the smoke screen.
|David DeWald
I think one opportunity that was not mentioned is "Status" items. Items that have no real impact on the game but to show others that someone has the ability to buy an item.
For example, you have three permanent mounts and all give the same +10% bonus to move rate. One looks very much like an Ostrich, another Fox like and a third looks like a very fine Horse. Again, no matter which one is purchased you get the same bonus.
However in polling your users you find that 80% of them would choose the Horse, 15% the Fox and 5% the Ostrich. Clearly there is more demand for the Horse simply because it is a much better looking model. So you could charge more to capitalize on that desire for the better looking mount.
Thats what we did... and we sold a lot of those Horses at $40 USD a pop.
|Alan Barton
Ok, so lets get this straight. You are describing Gachopon in a way that implies you haven't implemented it yet in a game. Therefore your assertion that its the "ultimate monetization method" is based on your assumption, not fact.
Also you assume people will be willing to buy *random* items in the game, that they *need* to play the game. That implicitly implies they can't see what they are buying. Great you implement this in your game, then we will all clone your game idea, but we will tell customers what they are getting for their money, then your customers will be our customers, as they can buy what they want and *need* in our games. :)
I'm playing devils advocate of course to show you your wonderful dream of untold riches is built on very shaky assumptions that can also be easily counteracted and undermined by your competitors.
Also if you think you can just add gambling as a monetization method, you haven't even begun to see the scale of the legal problems, because you are entering a vast legal minefield that is different in every country and constantly changing.
For example, the US specifically has anti-internet gambling laws. e.g.
Plus game monetization is very much under the political spotlight currently and politicians think games are for kids, and here you are want gambling in (as they will call) kids games! Good luck with that! The politicians will burn you with pleasure. e.g.
By the way, the monetization method you are describing is often called an AWP. E.g.
And its definitely covered by laws as gambling.
Also if all of that isn't bad enough, Gachopon (kids cheap plastic toy Vending Machines) work only because the machines are placed where kids can pester their parents with "I want, I want" ... and the parent, desperate for some peace and quite, thinks they can get some peace by distracting their offspring for a while with a very inexpensive *one off* throw away toy.
That isn't a good long term monetization model for games!. :)
However there is a hint here as in *need*. Making things available in game that people want and need, is a good driver for monetization, but a far better method is to make the things people want and need a consumable, then they need it repeatedly. Then they have a choice. Work hard to get consumable, or buy consumable.
Plus that has been shown to work by many developers in F2P games.
/Disclaimer: Sorry if this advice sounds like a mauling. Its nothing compared with what government officials would do to you ... and I did add a softener in the form of an alternative at the end, to ease the pain! :)
|Bokshik Kim
And gachapon monetization is also crucial in F2P PVP games - FPS games, especially.
In FPS games, there are two kind of players. Most of them are not willing to pay to win because it seems unfair. And that's the reason why some players are. Because there are players not paying, the paying users can have advantage. And because some players pay, non-paying players can enjoy game. The proportion seldom changes because it's about the fundamental philosophy of each player.
But even if a player want to have more and more advantage with paying, there should be limitation. Once he has a set of equipment(weapons, armors, boosters, skins and so on), buying additional equipment is meaningless.
The only way to get more money from him is to sell even more expensive and powerful items but it can harm the basic principal of game - it should be fair. If the cash items are too powerful, the non-paying players would leave. If there are not enough non-paying players to kill, there would be no meaning of paying and getting stronger. If the items are not powerful enough, they won't buy. That's the dilemma of monetizing F2P FPS game.
An then, gachapon comes in. The low chance and the high expected cost can justify its performance. Players can spend as much as he want and can afford. And it's even fairer than just selling the good weapons directly in the shop. In such traditional model, there is no chance to get better service(items) with paying less. But it's possible in gachapon. Even you can get it without paying any money(if the gachapon is given). Of course it's actually theoretical, but that little chance justifies and keep players from leaving game for unfairness.
Of course, I don't think it's the only and ultimate monetization method. It harms the basic principal of 'Fair Game' which is especially important in FPS games. But there are a lot of obstacles in monetizing FPS games and it can be a compromise. (The show must go on, right?)
I personally prefer Pay-to-Play model in World Of Tanks. But it's not FPS and requires much bigger and longer meta game which is not easy for FPS games.

Please join our Twitter storm on Tuesday, January 14th at 9pm Eastern. You can use the PDA map to find out what TPP issues are of interest/concern to your Congress Member.
Negotiators fail to close deal amid revelations of internal discord over US corporate bullying. The Obama administration's pro-corporate Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agenda appears to have missed a deadline.
Outside Salt Lake City's Grand America Hotel on Tuesday, the rains fell, the speakers rose, the marchers chanted.
Inside, top trade negotiators from the United States and 11 other Pacific Rim nations perhaps discussed imports and exports, profits and products, prices and patents. The exact topics aren't known. The talks were closed.
We wrote yesterday that this deal, the Trans Pacific Partnership, already looked to be in trouble given both Congressional and foreign opposition. The Administration has conducted the talks with an unheard-of degree of secrecy, with Congressional staffers in most cases denied access to the text and even Congressmen themselves facing unheard-of obstacles (Alan Grayson reported that the US Trade Representative created an absurd six weeks of dubious delays in his case).
The New York Times reported serious worry in the U.S. Congress about the Trans Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (TPP for short), a massive new free trade deal being pushed by the United States with the involvement of 11 other countries on both sides of the Pacific. About 170 Congresspersons have signed on to one or more of three letters which oppose fast track status forthe deal.
The US pharmaceutical industry has been shaping elements of the Obama administration's secret Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement to favor their own profits. But the deal could also could cause the price of prescription drugs and some medical devices to soar on a global scale.
Ten score and thirteen years ago corporate forefathers began conquering wilderness, steam, gas, oil, electricity, transcontinental rails and airways communication, prospering by quenching America's thirst for more, better, faster. Now we who built it, want more, faster, so thinking locally, we trade globally. Thus unlike you, we will always have money to eat.
President Barack Obama has demanding a 'trade promotion authority' from the United States Congress to fast-track the Pacific Rim treaty, the Trans-Pacific Partnership.[1]
The fast-track authority plays a pivotal role in determining the extent to which the United States Congress can engage in a critical review of trade agreements.[2]
Progressive Democrats in Congress are ramping up pressure on the Obama administration to release the text of Trans-Pacific Partnership, a secretive free trade agreement with 10 other nations, amid intensifying controversy over the administration's transparency record and its treatment of classified information.
Once again, Koch brothers cash will face off against a people-powered campaign in Wisconsin this November. The race is for a House seat in the first Congressional District, a seat now held by Paul Ryan. His challenger – the first serious challenge he's faced in 14 years in Congress – is Rob Zerban, a restaurateur and County Commissioner.
Everywhere I go during my campaign — parades, farmers markets, even the local deli — I keep hearing the same thing from Wisconsin voters. "We need real representation," they tell me, "representation that's focused on the people and what we need."
"The message is clear: Paul Ryan must be held accountable for his 14 years of failed decisions"
"He had a minor in economics," Rob Zerban says of his opponent. "What experience does he have to say that he's the great budget oracle?" "The people of the First District can see where that budget impacts their lives. Their bridges start to crumble. We've got 16 bridges on federal highways alone in the district that have been declared structurally deficientm and that doesn't include county and local municipal bridges.
Typically during an election cycle, it often comes down to voting for the lesser of two evils. You choose the one who supports the issues most meaningful to you – or at least doesn't outright defy them. It can be difficult to encounter a candidate who personifies the conviction and integrity you would imagine only in a perfect political world.
Today, Rob Zerban, Democratic Congressional challenger to Congressman Paul Ryan, released the following statement in response to the introduction of Paul Ryan's FY2013 "Path to Poverty" budget.
"In yet another misguided handout to Wall Street at the expense of Main Street, Congressman Paul Ryan today introduced his latest budget plan, designed to place the blame for his 14 years of poor decisions squarely on the backs of our hardworking families.
When I began this campaign, I made a commitment to serve as a voice of the people- not of corporations.
I have been putting that into action. In the last few weeks, I have been working overtime to kickoff my campaign with rallies across the district.
The American Civil Liberties Union, Free Press and the Save the Internet campaign have made it clear that the Stop Online Piracy Act poses a genuine threat to human rights advocacy and whistleblowing on the Web.
On Friday, September 12th more than 150 activists will go to DC and Demand that their Senators and Representatives support removing the ratification deadline from the ERA (SJ Res 15 and HJ Res 113)

They're Challenging the Two-Party Establishment in Third Parties
"It's time for a new political party," according to John F. Kimberling, author of WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS
(Los Angeles, CA) September 26, 2012 – What do people like Jill Stein, Gary Johnson, and Roseanne Barr have in common? They are all running for the top political office in the country as nominees of minor political parties. And according to some polls, more people are paying attention to them. This year's election has highlighted the bipartisan consensus between the two major parties and exposed how little the Republican and Democratic parties differ from each other. "The Republican and Democratic parties are really very much alike, and neither party is willing or able to offer a substantive and acceptable alternative to the status quo politics," says John F. Kimberling, author of WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS: A NEW POLITICAL PARTY (Polimedia Publishing, 2012, www.whatthiscountryneeds.net). He continues, "But as we can see, there is a definite hunger and a need in this country for a new approach to governance, and I predict that the next decade will see the rise of several compelling alternatives—a third political party."
Kimberling, a highly respective lawyer for three decades and who has held leadership positions in both the Republican and Democratic parties at different times, knows what goes into growing an effective political party. The first step is to consolidate all efforts between the minor political parties to reach a broad multi-partisan consensus: "A starting point for organization of our new third party would be to organize a convention or a conference of the leaders of existing national third parties," says Kimberling. "While the beliefs, goals, and platforms of these parties differ in many aspects from the platform we have set forth here for our new party, these parties advocate certain goals which we envision for our new third party," he adds.
Kimberling lays out a challenge to this new political party, "We must stir the imagination of those millions of American citizens who do not bother to vote. We need to excite them and get their participation by showing solutions to our problems. We need to show them how to change things so they can care for their families and provide for their future. My book is a manifesto for this new political party and a practical 'how-to-do-it' manual to create a lasting change in this country."
But even if the intent is not to create a new political party, the Gary Johnsons, Jill Steins, and Roseanne Barrs of this country could take a page or two from Kimberling's book. "They might not succeed, but at least they took a stand and voters who are paying attention are taking notice. The next question they ought to be asking themselves should be, 'What's next?' and 'How can I reach more voters?'"
Kimberling goes into great detail in his book about the most pressing issues a new political party must solve if it were to succeed. Kimberling's What This Country Needs is a manifesto of change that refuses to accept that powerful political and financial forces can take the country away from its people. It lays out a blueprint for a new third party to give the voters the tools they need to reshape the political process and point the way in a new direction and to a better future for the entire country.
John F. Kimberling is the author of What This Country Needs: A New Political Party (Revised Edition Election 2012). Kimberling is widely known as a leading U.S. litigation specialist, a charter member of the ABA section on litigation, a fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, a veteran of two wars, and at various times served in leadership positions in both the Democratic and Republican parties. He was once hailed by The American Lawyer as the "one of the top trial lawyers in the country" and the publication of the original edition of What This Country Needs led to his appearance as moderator on a C-SPAN discussion titled "Is It Time for a New Political Party?"

Savory Chicken Stuffing Bake
- Posted on
- 7 Comments
I love this meal because I usually have all the ingredients on hand and it only takes a couple of minutes to prepare.
Savory Chicken Stuffing Bake
6 ounce package Chicken Stove Top Stuffing mix
2 cans Cream of Chicken soup (10.75 ounces each can)
2 tsp dried parsley
6 chicken breasts
2/3 cup milk
paprika to taste
Prepare stuffing as directed, set aside.
Place chicken in a 13x9" greased pan (I just use Pam to grease it). Mix together soup, parsley, and milk. Pour on top of chicken. Spread stuffing on top of soup mix and chicken. Cover with foil. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for 20-25 MORE minutes (until chicken is not pink). Sprinkle with paprika.
We love to serve it with baked potatoes and use the extra soup mix as a gravy to go on top.
Another thing I like to do is top each chicken breast with a slice of cheese (cheddar, swiss, provolone- they are all delicious!). Some people also said that they like to add sour cream to their soup mixture for an additional twist.
Here are more of our favorite chicken recipes:
Grilled Malibu Chicken
Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Chicken
Homemade Chicken Nuggets
Chicken Enchilada Puffs
Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken
My mom used to make this recipe, too, but she would top each breast piece with swiss or muenster cheese before pouring the wet mixture on top. It is my hubbie's most requested dinner! Yum!
I have a similar recipe. Place boneless skinless chicken breast in pan sprinkle with lemon pepper seasoning. Place cheese on top then glob on one can of cream of chicken. Cover with prepared stove top and bake at 350. Heaven in a pan
we make this too, but we add sour cream to the soup to cut the chickeny taste.. also my sister has added mixed veggies in with the meat to give it some oomph.
This recipe is great! Either add more time for whole breasts, or cut them up though. I wound up needing more time. But delicious!!
I use one can of cream of chicken and one can of creamed corn; it's delicious!
Do you prepare the stuffing as directed on the box then put it on top of the chicken or do you just open the stuffing bag and place the dry stuffing on top of the chicken? Thanks in advance.

Jessica Alba hasn't been on our radar too much lately but she's been spotted at the park several times being the hottest and most awesome mom. Sure, she dresses the part a lot of the time, but this short shorts and tights combo is definitely a new favorite. It might be cold in L.A. but it definitely heats up whenever Jessica Alba walks in a room, or in this case, on the playground! More photos here.

Larissa Velez-Jackson - Star Crap Method
November 4-8, 2014 8pm | $15
Star Crap Method is Larissa Velez-Jackson's compositional methodology that complicates and redefines the skill set of the contemporary dancer. A trio (comprised of Tyler Ashley, Talya Epstein and Larissa Velez-Jackson) collectively composes the entire work in the moment, including the sound score of live vocals and digital sound. The piece is founded on Velez-Jackson's improvisational practice that embraces technical brilliance and failure in equal measure, ushering in a form of creative limitlessness with opportunities for great humor, vulnerability and absurdity — core values in her work.

Our guaranteed goose deterrent products feature a solar-powered light that is scarcely noticeable to humans but is very disruptive to the sleep of the geese, causing them to find another habitat after just a few restless nights. The solar-powered lights charge each day and flash 360 degrees, every two seconds from dusk to dawn, at eye-level of the geese. They require no maintenance and the durable ABS plastic of their bases will withstand any weather conditions. Each unit will get rid of geese in a 75-yard radius. There is a unit for every type of landscape:
Land Unit
For lawns, yards, fields, and gardens where geese congregate
Water Unit
For ponds, lakes, retention areas, or any water body
Sports Unit
For athletic fields, industrial areas, parks or any public places
Sports Cage
An accessory for the Sports Unit where vandalism is a concern
Dock / Roof Unit
Dock / Roof Bracket
An accessory to convert the Land Unit into use on a dock or roof

I'll try to keep this short. I do not claim to be a writer *__*
**Adventures in Daaallaaaas** I took a greyhound to Neil Gaiman's book signing at the Majestic. Met up with the bf (stands for boyfriend or baboon fart, whichever). We stayed at a motel 6 across the street from a seedy strip club, complete with shady clientele congregating around souped up cars. My plan was to hand Neil a really nice drawing as thanks, just to let him know that his stories kept a very gawky teenage me happy and curious of the world.
WELP, I ran out of time, got caught up with commissions, had work, I didn't draw that special thing. Pretty bummed about it. I even thought "hey, I'll draw something on the bus!" Nope! Didn't happen—-fast forward to the event, Neil surprised us with a second reading, this time from Fortunately, the Milk, which had…a stegosaurus! And I just so happened to have a little doodle of one in my sketchbook. I cleaned it up, tore it out, and waited for our turn.
I chanted 'don't be weird, don't be weird' in my head. He got to my book. For having to sign so many books in a stuffy room, he was gracious and wonderful. In fact, the entire staff was! He scribbled a little monster in my book, I didn't even have to ask! I handed him the lil' stegosaurus~~~He stopped signing for a little bit (which was unexpected), stared at the doodle much longer than I thought he would (also unexpected), and he gave me a hug ( totally unexpected). The driving and the waiting was worth it. I did a congratulatory fist pump as soon as we walked outside. Tired and sleepy, but too happy to nap in bf's car and the drive back home. I felt geeky being so happy about it, But hey, some get stoked over concerts-we all have our own things we treasure.
Mr. Gaiman, was witty, charming, funny, warm, and over all wonderful. He read an excerpt from The Ocean at the End of the Lane, which I saw so many pouring over as we waited in our seats. I'm still waiting for the right time. My next day off, definitely. A few questions were answered, not all as the stack was thicker than the new book itself. Last night was great!
Good bye little Steggy! <3

Love living here. Great views, nice layouts and large 2 brs (1200 sq ft), awesome concierge staff, numerous subway lines within close proximity- makes life so convenient. Also nearby great ft greene, bk heights, and dumbo restaurants.

This is the best building I've ever lived in! Everything is wonderful -- the amenities, the appliances, the staff, the restaurant on the first floor and supermarket right across the street, and easy access to several subway lines. A plus that the building is rent-stabilized, so my rent will only go up a few percent when it's time to renew.
A Google User
Oct 20, 2011
The apartment layouts are nice, and the building amenities are quite good. Every unit has laundry, which definitely makes life easier. However, the building really went cheap on sound insulation. The walls between units are paper-thin, so you will hear your neighbors' TVs and appliances. This is not because the people who live here are inconsiderate - it's because the construction is shoddy. This is too bad; by being so cheap with this aspect of the building, the Avalon missed an opportunity to provide top-notch rentals.

Aug 11, 2011
After getting a new job and relocating back to NY, we decided to give Manhattan a miss and opt for Brooklyn. With only 3 days to find an apartment, the Avalon stood out from the rest. We haven't been disappointed. It's well run, the staff are very welcoming. It's well connected but a little light on nearby bars/restaurants (great wine shop round the corner though). The only downside has been the construction on Flatbush ave which finished up about a month ago. All in all, a great place to live.

Jurassic Park glitter shoes I made for Jurassic Park 3D! These were fun to make but also a pain. If I ever want to do this again I would skip the glitter and paint the canvas the color I want (if it wasn't already what I wanted) or buy them already glittered.

What I imagine when little kids get Animal Crossing: New Leaf
What I imagine when little kids get Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Is there anyone…ANYONE…better than Paul F. Tompkins? No. No, there is not. What a gem.
As we celebrate the end of 2012 and the beginning of the… one after… that (math is not my strong suit) I would like to thank everyone who bought a ticket to a show, downloaded a podcast or purchased an album that I created this year. I am grateful to have nice fans and lucky that anyone pays attention to anything I do at all.
Here is a video from my final Largo show of 2012, and the last one, overall, for a while. I will be sharing more stuff like this with you from the considerable Paul F. Tompkins Show video archive as 2013 (now I get it; it's like a series of numbers) unfolds. So go on and subscribe to my channel, should it please you.
On to the future. We'll take a cup of kindness yet!

NEVER FORGET UNTIL TOMORROW - Paul
Forget stoner Christmas, tonight is comedy nerd Christmas, with the network television premiere of Patton Oswalt: Finest Hour at 10/9c followed by the world premiere of Paul F. Tompkins: Laboring Under Delusions at 11/10c.
It's almost like a mass conspiracy designed to kill everyone with good taste via comedy overdose, but it's totally not that at all. I don't even know why you would ever suggest something so absurd and definitely untrue.

So This Happened of the Day: Andy Cohen's creepy need to have Harry Potter cast members read Harry Potter slash fanfic pays off yet again, as The Boy Who Lived himself comfortably recites a snippet from a story about a rather titillating Harry/Ron rendezvous.
In related news, Daniel Radcliffe recently told Time Out London that he found Harry Potter fans to be "a lot less sexually aggressive" than Twilight fans.
Do with that what you will.

And are you still for it if they start to monitor what you do? Are you for it if they start to sensor you and control what and where you can go to?
You seem to be neglecting the fact that the private companies are already turning over 'what you do' the the government... very willingly. Are you for that?
You seem to be neglecting the fact that the private companies are already turning over 'what you do' the the government... very willingly. Are you for that?
Bingo.. ATT/VZ, etc just want your money.. If they do something you don't like you can go to another service (sometimes).What happens if the government starts to offer different services based on political party affiliation? Or any other determining factor they chose. You then have NO choice because what they say is law, whether it's law or not..China anyone??
Dude, where have you been? The PRIVATE isps do this already practically.
Actually, you often cannot go to another service. Are you even paying attention to the article? That is the whole problem!I have no problem with the government setting up service in an area where private providers refuse to provide usable service. After all, that is actually one of the government's original purposes: to provide public goods (roads, etc) that would not be feasible for a private agency to provide.There is no public-private competition to speak of in that case.As for all of the bad things you are saying, I fail to see how that would be any different from what a private company would do.If the government started to offer services by political party, I think we would have a lot more serious things to worry about that an internet connection.
They may have no other 'WIRED' services, but I refuse to believe that Sprint, Verizon, ATT or whomever has cell internet services there don't have 3g/4g services available. And there are satellite options as well.My dad has NO access to wired services, but he can get all 3 carriers 3G services and VZW 4G LTE services. I just purchased the Verizon HomeFusion service for him for xmas and he is in heaven. Wired services are the best no question about it, but wireless does work and offers a viable alternative.I don't agree with a law outlawing community broadband options, but IMHO if they want a community option then they should take their own dollars and form a private company to offer those services. It should not be tax dollar funded or subsidized by other tax payers in the state. Not everyone will want this, so why should tax payers who don't want it pay for it?If we could trust the government to do what is right, then I wouldn't have any problem either. But time after time they've proven they can't. Government services always come in way over budget and late because they have no one to answer to. They'll ultimately tax you more and more for outdated services.Didn't the city of Seattle have some public run ISP services/project that was dismantled because it cost too much to operate?
You can also choose to move to a community that doesn't monitor its users; vote with your residency! Or simply choose not to use a service your taxes pay for. How many of these agencies (that you help pay for) have you used?»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Un···agenciesWhat you guys are missing is that this has nothing to do with advertising... the government stooges ARE ALREADY MONITORING your activity thanks to the corporate stooges selling out. It is exactly what Buckweet seemed to fear might happen.I disagree with Buckweet's postulation that LOCAL government would start monitoring you at all. The Feds certainly would want to (since they are doing it now) but they would need to pass a law if it were controlled at the local level. If anything, this would be a hindrance to the telco provided legal work-around.I would much rather have a hand in the decision making process with my vote and the ability to elect the Internet czar rather than have no say at all with the profiteers we have now. I am all for community Internet funded by Elray's and my tax dollars
They may have no other 'WIRED' services, but I refuse to believe that Sprint, Verizon, ATT or whomever has cell internet services there don't have 3g/4g services available. And there are satellite options as well.
I'd rather have private companies doing it than government stooges.
Like what private industry can already do? all the ISPs already give your data away wholesale to the NSA and they also sell it to their advertising partners.--[65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports
Communism - Basically when government controls what the citizens chooses in life.If dictatorship is added on top, expect it to worsen.But Communism isn't all bad, it's only because most government in the world tends to corrupt.
It isn't private providers "refusing to provide usable service".Its the unwillingness of the consumer to pay for "usable service" that prevent its deployment. Until the cost of providing the service matches up with what the locals are willing to pay, you won't see more of it.Forcing your neighbors to subsidize your service through the tax base is simply wrong.

A Marketer's Obituary To Mass Affluence
by George Blair Scribner on Jul 13, 7:56 AM
Last year, in the wake of the 2009 credit crisis, some colleagues and I discovered that our recruiting specifications for affluence didn't consistently produce affluent people. Also, we noticed a different tone in the media about affluence. The term "the Rich" began to infiltrate headlines. And, references to the "Mass Affluent" disappeared. Our search for answers led us to perform our own study leveraging data from the annual Mendelsohn Affluence Survey.
