Grilled Japanese Eggplant with Tahini Sauce
Fellow gardeners, do you ever plant something because you like the look of it, but grow more than you know what to do with? That's been my relationship to the Japanese eggplants in my garden.
I love to grow them. They hide out trellised against a fence behind my garden bed. They're a beautiful deep shade of purple, long and elegant.
But unlike tomatoes, you can't just chop them up and toss them in a salad. Eggplants need to be cooked. Japanese or Asian eggplants are more delicate than their Italian globe brethren. They cook faster, the peels are thinner, and the cooked flesh is creamier.
An easy way to cook this type of eggplant is to grill it, either on a grill or in a grill pan, with high, searing heat. Don't be afraid of those char marks. They're delicious. The best part. These grilled eggplant we are serving with a creamy sesame tahini sauce, which works beautifully with the eggplant (and would go great with other veggies as well.)
I have only a few recipes for my garden Japanese eggplants and am always looking for more. So if you have any ideas, please let me know about them in the comments!
If you don't have a grill, you can use a grill pan or a cast iron pan on the stove top. Just spread some oil over the bottom of the pan so the eggplants don't stick, heat on high heat, follow the recipe for preparing the eggplants, and "grill" the eggplants on the hot pan.
- 4 Japanese eggplants (about 1 1/4 pound total)
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 3 Tbsp of olive oil
Tahini sauce
- 1/4 cup roasted sesame tahini
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp chopped parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
- Thai basil for garnish
1 Slice the Japanese eggplants in half, lengthwise. Using a sharp paring knife, score the inside surface of the eggplants in a cross hatch pattern, 1/2 inch deep. Lay in a tray and sprinkle the exposed, scored side with salt. Let sit at least 20 minutes (or up to an hour or more) while the grill is coming to temperature and while you make the tahini sauce. The salt will help draw out excess moisture from the eggplants.
2 Prepare your grill for high, direct heat. While the grill is heating, prepare the tahini sauce.
3 If you have a mini chopper, place all of the tahini sauce ingredients in it and pulse until smooth. If you don't have a mini chopper, mince the garlic and parsley very very fine, and then use a fork or a small whisk to whisk all of the ingredients together. (You can also use a mortar and pestle to grind the garlic with the salt and sugar until it is a smooth paste, then whisk together all of the ingredients.)
4 When your grill is ready and hot, pat the eggplants dry with a paper towel, and brush the insides with olive oil. Place the eggplant halves cut-side down on the hot grill. Press them down a little so they make good contact with the grill. Grill on the cut side until well browned, about 3 to 5 minutes. When they are well seared on one side, flip them over and cook on the other side until the eggplants are cooked all the way through, another couple minutes or so. Brush again with a little olive oil.
5 Remove from grill, place on a plate and serve with tahini sauce. Garnish with Thai basil.

Good old fashion "time out" with a modern twist! The twist being a verbal warning with reason why they will end up in T.O. prior to placing them in there. A designated quite & isolated space, length of time one minute per year of age (if 3 then three minutes). Set a TIMER as a "third party equalizer" Explain rules: The timer will be "reset if they get up talk while in time out." Walk away
After timer goes off, instead of yelling, "ok you can go now" You go to them. Sit on their little level, or lower and make eye contact to have the "conversation" Child is still in "chair" until conversation is complete. This is where the follow through happens in order to have carry over with the discipline. The conversation is repetitive but necessary for long time learning and effectiveness. You are also teaching them the following: how to verbally communicate with others, acknowledgement of behavior, reinforce boundaries, teach mutual respect and last but most important of all CONSISTENCE.
1. Why did I put you in T.O? IF they do not know, tell them they may sit until they remember and walk away...they remember quite quickly. If not, that's fine. Go back in a min or so and repeat the process. Give them hints. Do you think what you did was it was a good idea or a bad idea? Then ask them why they think so. Then ask how they should handle it the next time? come to me, tell someone, listen the first time, take turns, what ever. If they are to make apologies ask them to do so. Then tell them if it happens again, they will be back in time out. Praise them for the ideas of good behavior to use in the future and I love you's with a hug is always good :)

Dr. Montessori explained the goal of education as "the development of a complete human being, oriented to the environment, and adapted to his or her time, place and culture." At Montessori Community School, we are interested in the development of the whole person. Our goal is to nurture our students emotionally and socially, as well as academically.
Within each class, there are many different activities happening at once and a lot of movement. You may see students working independently, conferring with one another, working in small groups, reading, receiving a lesson from a teacher, constructing something, or solving a problem.
Our classrooms are specifically designed by Montessori teachers to meet the needs of the students. They are "prepared environments." The furniture is scaled to the size of the child. Materials are displayed on open shelves that are easily accessible and inviting to the students and are arranged in such a way as to capture a child's interest and entice him/her to work with them.
We design the prepared environments to foster independence. Students learn to do for and help themselves in our classrooms. They select their work from the shelves, work on it alone or with others, and then return it to its place. They put away their own belongings. When students are hungry, they choose to eat snack. They clean up after themselves as well. Independence is nurtured and fostered by the design of the classroom, the guidance of the teachers, and the mentoring of other students. It is an ongoing learning process.
Freedom is very important to the nurturing of independence. However freedom is also one of the most misunderstood aspects of Montessori. Many people assume that when we describe freedom, we mean that students can do whatever they wish. This is not true. Freedom means choice within limits. Freedom has a counterpart - responsibility. They are inseparable; they go hand-in-hand and work in concert with one another.
Freedom to choose one's own work is a hallmark of Montessori education. Children in our classes are accorded more freedom of choice after they demonstrate higher degrees of responsibility. Responsible behavior includes respect for classroom materials and using them for their intended purpose, the ability to concentrate and be engaged in work, and to work within reasonable time frames on an activity or follow-up from a lesson.
A student has freedom of movement within our classes, as long as he is able to move responsibly. In fact, there is a lot of movement within our classrooms. Students move around when they are ready to choose new work, when they are finished with some work, when they want to talk with someone, or when they go to the bathroom or get a drink. In our environment, these are choices that the students make, not choices that the teachers make.
In a Montessori environment the adults are not the focus of the classroom, the children are.
Montessori teachers give students lessons with the materials, but the child actually learns through his/her own work. The child teaches himself/herself. The adult's role is to observe each child's needs and then link the student with the appropriate materials of the prepared environment.
The teacher is a trained observer who notices developmental milestones and when a student is ready for another presentation and is always ready to guide a student in a new direction.

The Federal Circuit today denied Defendant Myriad Genetics' motion, styled as "Appellant's Suggestion of Mootness, or, in the Alternative, Motion to Remand," seeking to reopen the question of whether Dr. Harry Ostrer continues to have standing to bring the lawsuit (see "Myriad Files Motion 'Suggesting' Mootness or Seeking Remand in AMP v. USPTO"). As will be recalled, the Federal Circuit held that only Dr. Ostrer among all the named plaintiffs had standing, because he asserted he was "ready, willing and able" to practice the claimed BRCA genetic diagnostic methods should the Court affirm the District Court's decision invalidating the claims at issue. Myriad contended that Dr. Ostrer's change in academic affiliation stripped him of the ability to perform genetic diagnostic tests for the BRCA mutations, and thus that the Court should either dismiss the case or remand for a determination by the District Court on Dr. Ostrer's status.
Of course, even that eventuality might have proven unavailing for having the case dismissed, since plaintiffs had also asserted unconstitutionality claims (under the First and Fourteenth Amendments) based on the USPTO granting patents that interfered with a woman's ability to obtain information about her genetic health. A motion to dismiss by the PTO was denied on the grounds that the women had no other recourse to a remedy other than the lawsuit. The District Court avoided addressing that issue, however, and dismissed the USPTO from the case when making its decision, under the principle that constitutional questions should be avoided if the matter can be resolved by applying the appropriate statute (or, as here, deciding that the government action was contrary to the statute).
Opening party briefs and briefs by any amici remain due on June 15th.

After a brief meeting, Peter Bolton shared the story of the business and the Williamsford Mill. He and his wife Tamara purchased the property in 2006. There was much work to be done on the building to get to the point where they could open their restaurant and bookstore.
The Mill was built between 1850 and 1854 by Adam Scott Elliott. It is located on the North Saugeen River. The power was used to grind grain for livestock feed. A community sprung up around the mill. While the Mill is in the former Sullivan Township the mill pond, across the road, is the former Holland Township. The mill was a grist mill until 1975.
Some shared memories of the mill.
A few shared the early Grey County books that they had brought with them. After the meeting, we were invited to view the historical displays and the thousands of books.

Europe's great powers formed two powerful coalitions against France, yet force of numbers, superior leadership, and the patriotic fervor of France's citizen-soldiers not only defeated each in turn, but closed the era of small, professional armies fighting for limited political objectives. This book chronicles the period that produced commanders such as Napoleon and Nelson, whose names remain by-words for excellence to this day. From Italy to Egypt, this work shows how Napoleon demonstrated his strategic genius and mastery of tactics in battles including Rivoli, the Pyramids and Marengo. It also demonstrates how Nelson's spectacular sea victories at the Nile and Copenhagen were foretastes of a century of British naval supremacy.

Review: HTC Inspire 4G
The Inspire 4G has access to all the same applications that other Android handsets do via the Android Market. Now that Google has launched the Android Market web store, it will be even easier to find and install applications on the Inspire 4G. It is worth pointing out, however, that the Inspire 4G can not install off-market apps. This is a limitation across all AT&T-branded Android phones. It means no beta versions. Speaking of AT&T, the Inspire 4G is littered with AT&T apps, such as AT&T Family Map, AT&T Code Scanner, AT&T Navigator, MyAT&T, etc. These apps can't be removed.
BluetoothI didn't have a single problem using the Inspire 4G's Bluetooth features. I paired it to mono and stereo headsets with no problems. Call quality through a mono headset was excellent, and music quality through stereo headphones was very good. I was also able to pair with my PCs for file sharing.
ClockHTC + Sense + Android = best ever set of options for a smartphone clock. The Inspire 4G easily replaces a wrist watch, stop watch, egg timer, world clocks and pretty much any other timepiece you may have around (OK, except for maybe that antique cuckoo-clock).
AD article continues below...
The Inspire has both Google Maps 5.1 and AT&T Navigation on board. Both are capable navigation applications. AT&T's nav app costs $10 per month to use; Google Maps is free.

It's always the unexpected treats that end up meaning the most, like a new song from a forgotten favorite, or sometimes it's rediscovering that album which defined a past summer. Other times, it's three home-schooled siblings from rural Minnesota and their punk band that reignites your love for music itself. You never see it coming - until the opening crunch of "All My Balloons" kicks you square in the face. Hope seeps in, although with a degree of trepidation, because let's face it - the genre was done to death years ago. Children 18:3's self-titled debut may seem like a retread of an oversaturated style - even with its energetic cuff at the outset. But give them a chance… you're in for a treat.
At first it all sounds very familiar… punk foundation and generous influences from The Clash, Saves the Day, and maybe a little Foo Fighters. Often bouncy fun or driving, pseudo-melancholic intensity- always having a certain unfinished charm coupled with just enough polish to make it captivating. The Hostetters (Dave on guitar and vocals, Seth on drums, and sister Lee Marie on vocals and bass) are all equally skilled in their respective stations. In almost a decade playing together it's obvious they've learned how each piece should compliment the others- simply because they do it so well. Seth's drums are orchestrated around the tone of each song's moments- driving the energy onward, only to be injected with ska-pops and even some cowbell for effect. Dave and Lee Marie's dual-vocals are perfect, often bouncing back and forth between them chaotically before punching into a sustained harmony, and then right back into the hectic trade-offs. Bands like The Forecast may try similar vocal arrangements, but there's no comparison- I doubt I've heard it done better than Children.
Their name is an allusion to Matthew 18:3, wherein Jesus said "Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven…"- a notion which carries over into the songwriting, even more than it serves as their unofficial manifesto. The emphasis for these three isn't to push their songs into a genre, or convey a specific message with sterile words or notes. There's an exploration of moments, of emotions and creativity at work here… much like a child with simple faith and expression- devoid of agenda. As sublimely aggressive and structurally raw as the music is- the lyrical content is just as organic to its environment... At once poetic, often defiant and rowdy, and then full of pensive desperation. It's a call to confront complacency in "All My Balloons," the emotions of loss in "Even Sleeping," being salt and light in "The City," or a poignant question of our willingness to actually give our lives for Christ, as the record ends with "Final."
Children 18:3 is just simply GREAT music… raw and refined, introspective and fun, emotional and spiritual - all at the same time. Say hello to the best surprise you've gotten in years.

Title: Locker Combination Author: eXpresSew Publisher: eXpresSew Pages: 24 Suggested Retail Price: $11.95 Review: By Dori Hawks
Sewing patterns for teens and tweens is the focus of a great series of books to teach the younger generation how to sew and quilt. They include great graphics, have a reader friendly layout, and lots of diagrams to help explain the steps for the projects in the books. The �author� is a cute girly cartoon character named �Groove Girl�. She writes in an amusing style, and has very trendy projects.
Another great book in the series from eXpresSew called �Locker Combination� has accessories including a locker caddy in two sizes, notebook covers in three sizes, and the world�s easiest daypack. One great thing about the projects in this book, they are easily made by boys or girls. The book guides them through �decoding pattern matters and vocab�, �fabrics to look for�, �tools to gather�, how to take measurements, �conquering cutting�, �preppin� your pieces�, and �pullin� it all together�.
The patterns are in a pull-out section and the �Top Tip� for this book is called �Bias-ed Opinion� and covers what bias is and how to sew it. These patterns are fun and easy to do and would appeal to young sewers. They will be able to boast, �I made it!�

Getting ready for Burning Man
Trip Start
Mar 02, 2011
Trip End
Oct 14, 2011
Where I stayed
Baymont Inn & Suites
My friend, Bill, and I spent the day getting ready for Burning Man. There were lots of last-minute chores, such as charging camera batteries, and we both had some shopping to do, most of which we did separately. The toughest task turned out to be fitting everything we bought into our cars. We drove to Carson City for dinner.

Materialism: Failing before Life's Challenges
In 1951, Bertocci wrote:
". . . no matter how narrow the gap between the chemical and the living becomes—and discoveries about the nature of viruses and colloids do indeed narrow that gap—we must remember that the gap is a qualitative and not a spatial one. Suppose we consider the colloids the 'missing link' between living and dead matter. This may impress our minds with the wondrous continuity of degree between one order of being and another. But let us take a closer look. Has the gap between life and matter really been crossed, let alone explained? Even though a colloid may reproduce as living things do, it otherwise behaves like a chemical. But a cell acts throughout like a living being and not like a chemical. The fact still remains that when life appeared,life appeared. . . . This collocation of events, this close interrelation of living and nonliving beings, is an opaque fact unless we postulate a purpose which uses one order as an aid to the continuance of another. Obviously this appeal to a broader purpose will not explain how the food enters the stomach becomes part of the living blood, bone, nerve, and brain. Any biochemist can give us the sequence, but he is as silent before this fact of transmutation as we are. However, we're not trying to introduce a Purposer to describe what science has not so far described; here we seek to explain the harmony between two orders of being, the harmony between two differing and interacting qualities of existence. We are seeking a view which, far from denying established scientific facts, will allow them to fit into a broader scheme which decreases the mystery. What mystery? The fact that living beings should appear and be so closely interconnected with nonliving beings—especially if all there was to begin with was the nonpurposeful, nonliving, nonthinking hustle and bustle of units of energy. . . ."
". . . Our interest here is to emphasize the greater coherence which comes into our thinking if we consider the interrelation of the physical universe and life and the developing evolution of species as the handiwork of a creative Intelligence intent on producing a world rich in life, and, in the existence of man, rich in mind and value. The evidence so far adduced enables us to envisage a Mind which is responsible not only for the ultimate physical preparations for life but for the first appearance of life in its many forms and for the additional mutations and variations discovered by our scientists."
Introduction to the Philosophy of Religion, 1951, pp. 333-34, 337 (italics in the original).
Fifty years later, the atheist Antony Flew wrote:
"[We may now know] how—by evolution through natural selection—one or more very primitive kinds of organism evolved into the enormous variety of species now known either still to exist or to have existed during some period in the past. But that is a very different thing from knowing the explanation for the existence and apparently purposeful form of all life or even of any life. For, so far as I know, no one has as yet contrived to produce any plausible conjecture as to how even the most primitive kind of organism with a disposition to reproduce and thus to expose itself to natural selection might have evolved from a mixture of the many kinds of complex molecule which are now known to be required for that construction. [My italics; Flew has been dealing with these issues for over fifty years.]
"Conway sees here a threefold challenge to the materialist, of which I consider two of the elements to be much more formidable than the third. The first of these two is to produce a materialistic explanation for 'the very first emergence of living matter from non-living matter. In being alive, living matter possesses ateleological organization that is wholly absent from everything that preceded it.' The second challenge . . . is to produce an equally materialist explanation for the emergence, from the very earliest life-forms which were incapable of reproducing themselves, of life-forms which a capacity for reproducing them-selves."

"Pizzababy" is gold. If you don't want me to use it either, I'll stop. I just think it's a shame to waste 'trane's creative genius.
You know, I actually kind of like the name. I met take it if you don't want it. |

If I take it, it won't make sense for people to call you that, anymore. So that's a positive for you, I guess. There are some sweet potential avatars of babies eating Pizza. If Acie lets me, I'll change my name as a tribute to RF laughs. We're laughing with you, not at you.

I think you gotta give up on this pzabby. Slips of the tongue happen to people all the time. It has nothing to do with being professional. I'm not sure if that moderator was reading all his questions off a teleprompter (or that binder he had in front of him) or if he had some leeway for impromptu questions. I assume a slip of the tongue is more likely to happen if you are impromptu talking rather than reading stuff off a teleprompter like Peter Mansbridge.
Also what was Meatloaf doing? Was he super drunk or was he being sarcastic? Republicans. I don't get it. Last edited by Beans; 10-30-2012 at 09:00 PM. Reason: looked at video clip again |

Chris Christie looked ready to concede, by gushing over the Obama admin's response to the storm. He looked like he was working to get some Dem voters crossing over to him in 2016.

The aggregated popular vote does not matter; only the results of the electoral college matter, where Obama has a very slight edge the last time that I checked. If I remember right, Obama has around 230 delegates locked up, Romney has around 200, and the states they are fighting over could bring either of them to 270 (minimum number of delegates required to be POTUS), with Obama having slightly more favourable odds.

Obama's odds are actually twice as good or better than Romney's. But then vote rigging could turn those odds around.
Ohio looks pretty solid for Obama all the way through. Without that state Romney's chances are pretty slim. |

I'd say "Let's consult the polls" but I worry that, especially now, it is a lot of noise and not a lot of signal. Last I saw, Obama was doing well in Ohio but Romney was gaining in every other swing-state.

Right now Obama is ahead in Wisconsin, Iowa, Ohio, Michigan, while Romney is up by 1 in Florida, looks like he'll take North Carolina and Virginia. But really most of these states the lead is narrow to say the least 1-3%.

Romney stopped gaining about a week ago. Nate Silver breaks it down pretty incredibly well. He uses a bunch of computer simulations to get beyond noise. It really is incredibly hard for Mitt to win without Ohio. My only problem is that Ohio would be precisely where the vote could get rigged. Exit polls from the last two elections show a big variance with the actual results, and there are countless stories about voter suppression there. And I think there will be no exit polls conducted there this time around. Still, even with Ohio, if Romney doesn't have continued momentum, he can lose. We're looking at a likely 2000 sort of scenario then.

I've been watching your marbling videos for a few days now, and I am amazed at how good you are at it. But you say you don't show your mistakes. I think you should! They'd make a great example for learning!
Seriously, would you consider showing some of what you consider mistakes? Maybe a whole blog entry of things that can and do go wrong? I think it could be a GREAT help to all of us!EVERYONE - Thank you all!
DR4G0NF1Y - That would look awesome!
LAYNIE - Main problem is I usually curse a blue streak when I mess up LOL, and I try to keep my videos clean =) I do have one video, the Poolside rainbow #1, where I mess up a nail & show how to clean it up, but that's it so far =)- AnonymousMarch 4, 2011 at 6:05 AM

L'autotutela nel diritto tributario
eBook (PDF), 16 Pages
L'istituto dell'autotutela o jus poenitendi consiste nel potere dell'amministrazione finanziaria di annullare o di revocare un suo atto perché ritenuto privo di fondamento e legittimità. Tale istituto trae origine dal diritto amministrativo in cui l'autotutela viene intesa come la capacità dell'ente di "farsi ragione da sé" in via amministrativa e, ovviamente, rispettando il principio di legalità .

For the Moto Z Play, being a mid-range phone that we wouldn't typically review, we took a different approach to sharing our final thoughts on it. Hey, look, a video review from Droid Life! This should be interesting.
If you have watched the DL Show in recent weeks or follow us on Twitter, you probably know that I've actually become quite a big fan of this phone. It might be the legitimate 2-day battery life that has me brainwashed. Seriously, I have never in all my years reviewing phones, seen one that can last this long on a single charge. You get battery estimates from companies as they announce new phones, yet none ever live up to those numbers. This phone does and I am incredibly impressed. (more…)

Yeah, it ssuucckkss. I heard they've finally stopped making them in Japan, which I think we can all admit is a sad turn of events for gamers as a whole, but mostly for RPG players. the PS2 Era of gaming was IMO the highpoint, the more games that come out, even ones from series I used to love *cough* Final Fantasy *cough* the more I realise I'm getting to old for gaming...
I guess I could try a.... Less than savoury way to play through again.. But I've never liked taking that route.
I think I'd rather just sit in a small hole, thinking about how much I want to be Yuri and trying rreeaallllyy hard to turn into Dark Seraphim
Check out the blog I write for LEGENDARY Indie Label Flicknife Records:
Blog Nine is live! It's like Mambo number five, but FOUR better! So read it now.
Ever since I lost my PS2 in a move, I've been running a PS2X emulator. I only run games I've already bought (with the exception of KH2FM+ which wasnt released outside JP :V), and even bought a little connector thing that lets me use an actual PS2 controller with my computer.
My list (very similar to others)
3. KH1. (Never played final mix + of KH1.)
Wow, I'm sure others have mentioned but 3 is really too small a number for the large amount of RPGs available to that console. So I'll cheat and use a few made up categories to recommend to you.
Dark/grittier RPGs (not horror or anything, but RPGs with a darker feel to them than the standard)
- Shadow Hearts 2. Recommend that you play 1 first, but 1 won't make it to this list. Very very fun overall, from the story to the gameplay to the references. Main character is definitely one of my favourites in any RPG.
- Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne (post apocalyptic type of setting - very addictive demon fusion system and gameplay requires much thought)
- Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2 - given together because it's no good playing them apart. 2 picks up where 1 deliberately leaves off.
Fantasy RPGs (the standard stuff)
- FF10, of course. Fun battle system, loved the sphere system and blitzball. However, hated the linearity (till I play 13...wtf) and the characters were a mix of annoying and alright. However, overall a good game, and its main villain was pretty awesome.
- Kingdom Hearts 2. Improved on everything that 1 was, and can be played without the first 1 if you really want to. You cannot own a PS2 / emulator without having tried KH2.
- Tales of the Abyss (great story, funny characters, fun gameplay..what's not to love?)
Something different, something interesting (games that do things differently, but were loved for it)
- Wild Arms 5 (although 3 is better, but quite standard JRPG so I can't put that here)
- Dark Cloud 2
- Xenosaga 3 (although 1 and 2 are good, but 3 is the best of the series in terms of welll...everything. Very lengthy game though, be prepared!)
From what I've played I can definitely reccomend:
Final Fantasy X - even with extreme linearity and Tidus, it is a fun game
Kingdom Hearts 2 - longer, more varied and easier than original, still a great action jRPG
Valkyrie Profile 2 Silmeria - story has problems with pacing but it has AMAZING combat system
Why you make it so hard!!! ughh...
Final fantasy X is the final fantasy i've played through the most excluding 9, these 2 are the best final fantasy's to me.
Shadow hearts 1 and 2, these are so good that i have to put them together, and also mention 3 got rid of yuri so i never played it.
Dark cloud 2, they need to make a 3rd one, i'd buy the ps4 just for that!
edit: oh! and does anyone know if the ps3 has ps2 compatiablity (FULL ON, not like 360 where it uses an emulator)?
wanna get to playing xenosaga and stuff but every ps2 i've tried has had weak lasers or died before i could try.
they're getting pretty cheap so i may pick one up just for some good ol ps2 rpgs.

Believe it or not, I haven't played many PS2 RPG's. I need to play more. So my list might be a little odd. Plus, I played a lot of PS1 games on it too, and kind of consider them the same system in ways. I still have my PS2, just not really up for ordering games online, since good luck finding them at Gamestop nowadays.
1. Final Fantasy 10 - If nothing else, the game was really good for introducing people to the series, because it was fairly easy. The voice acting isn't great, but I haven't really heard any games with great voice acting. Even the great Tara Strong as Rikku doesn't help it. The story was fantastic, if a little dull at times. The graphics are beautiful, even to this day. Which begs the question, why are they re-releasing it?
2. Grandia 2 - The game translated terribly from the Dreamcast. Choppy graphics, and bugs that were seemingly never fixed. It's another game that would do well to introduce people to turn-based RPG's. The game is rather simple, and it's quite linear, so it's not a hunt for random side quest stuff like in most Final Fantasy games. I like doing that, but it helps simplify a game if needed. Again, the voice acting gets on my nerves, and, as I usually play with sound off anyway, it makes it a lot easier to do so. This game really shines in two places. First, characters. It's a nice change of pace to see the main character, Ryudo. His archtype doesn't seem to show up very often, and he and Millenia get some great and hilarious lines throughout the game. The second area is the combat system. Yes, it's turn-based, but it's an advanced system with a battlefield that has an active time style to it. When your spell goes off, and if affects an area, it hits any enemies in that area, but you have to time it because while nothing is being cast, combatants are moving around the field as you would expect during a real fight. Also, the leveling system is great. Each character has signature attacks you can power up with Special Coins you earn from each battle. You can also quip each character with an egg, which grants them spells, which you unlock and power up with Magic Coins you also earn in battle. You also find Books, that teach abilities you can equip to each character, which you also unlock and power up with coins. With this, you can customize each character, but because of their signature attacks, it doesn't feel like, say, Final fantasy 12, where whatever character you pick doesn't really matter, if only for the visual effect.
3. Shadow Hearts: From the New World - Forgive me, as I haven't played any of the previous games (but I know I should). This game has an interesting story, set in 1920's New York 9and around the world really). The combat system plays, I believe, like the previous games, with the attack wheel (it's been awhile, can't remember the name). the only issue I had with the game was the necessity for a strategy guide/walkthrough. There is no way, not one, that you can find any of the hidden items without one. Finding the most powerful spell required that you find every other spell in the game, and a lot of them are well hidden. And it's not like, say, Final Fantasy 9, where an exclamation mark will appear above your head if you stumble upon an item. You have to know where each one is. This game features a ton of side quests to do though, and a rather diverse cast. You can't go wrong with a "ninja" named Frank, who uses random objects (like a stop sign or a cactus) as a sword, a talking cat that uses martial arts, or a vampire that turns fat or skinny based on what creatures she eats.
From a new world was ok, but it was to "happy" for my taste. I liked the first one because of his dark setting. A village of man-eating cats? an old wizard with a weakness for porn? They went for a brighter setting in convenant to, but it was still quite interesting. FTNW while having a really polished combat systems couldnt really keep my interest story wise. And the side quests where much more obvious. Gaining Seraphic Radiance required much more, than gaining her sun form. Plus they somehow ruined the Fusion System.
Understatement of the century right there, don't get me wrong, SH3 was... okay, but everything it did, SH:C did better. Ninja named Frank? I raise you a gay luchador named Joachim, he also fights using stuff he picks up off the floor, his best weapon? a Submarine, named The Nautilus . you know the fat/skinny Vampire? yeah she's Joachim's little sister, while she turns fat/skinny, he can turn invisible, into a bat or gain a butterfly mask. Talking Ninja cat? I give you a talking Warrior Wolf, who has to journey the world and fight OTHER talking warrior wolves, so he can becomes the strongest in the world. Hot Native American chick? (because lets face it... Shania was smoking hot ) I give you Lucia, the Italian Dancer. And of course we then have the main characters... FTNW Has Johnny, an annoying little boy, SH:C has Yuri Volte Hyuga, the coolest main character in any game ever, he could solo the whole FTNW cast without breaking a sweat
I could go on . Like I said, if you like FTNW, you owe it to yourself, and the gaming industry in general to try Covenant, it's just... better, on every scale, than FTNW.
Nice of you to finally join in Zael
Check out the blog I write for LEGENDARY Indie Label Flicknife Records:
Blog Nine is live! It's like Mambo number five, but FOUR better! So read it now.
Agreed. It's like 3 steps forward although you're going back in the series. Since they're unrelated stories and characters though, it shouldn't pose a problem. I couldn't bring myself to finish FTNW, I just missed Yuri and crew too much, as well as the general demon fusions, I found them more fun in SH:C.
And I can't believe I forgot Valkyrie Profile 2. That game...that game... wow. It's on par with how I feel about FF10. It has its bad points but I hardly ever notice them because IM HAVING TOO MUCH FUN GETTING ITEMS FROM ENEMY PARTS. And working out the best combos and characters and equipment and and ... yeah great game.
You have a lot to catch up on OP.
Radiata Stories
Persona 4, Final Fantasy XII, and Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria all get honorable mentions.
The skies over Eorzea beckon. I'll see Azeroth again, someday.
I think it's about time we stopped scapegoating each other and started demanding better from the devs.
My hope for humanity has increased after seeing all of these SH: Covenant mentions. The first one was amazing as well, and I did enjoy the third, but Covenant is the classic imo.
I liked it too, though didn't play the first one and thus quite ignorantly made Lezard a core party member. Mistake. >.<
Ouch. Only 3. As someone with something like 30+ RPGs (and about 3 non rpg games) for my ps2, that is kind of a harsh requirement.
Most of the expected ones seem to pop up on everyone elses list (and great games they are too), so I will pull out a couple of Wild Cards from my library for you to comment over and spice up my list.
My 3 would go as follows:
1 - Okami - Probably one of the most visually immersive games I have ever played. Simply beautiful. (and i hear they are re-releasing it in a remastered High-Def version for ps3! Drool!)
2 - Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter - One of the few games i have ever played that is A: intentionally designed to be unbeatable on your first playthrough, and B: has the story reveal more and more depth each time you play it again.
3 - Kingdom Hearts - Yeah, it has already been mentioned, but the KH games are just plain awesome.
Honorable mentions to Dark Cloud, Disgaea, the entire Xenosaga Trilogy, Rogue Galaxy, and the .hack// games (whoever managed to make a single player MMO actually seem like an MMO deserves a slap on the back).
Honestly I didn't play many games on my PS2, but Baldur's Gate 2 was a fun although very short game.
Aye, as I said in my first post here, If nothing else could sum up the awesomeness of the MMO-C community, their taste in PS2 Era RPG's would set them above most of the internet
Tbh the whole SC series was amazing, Koudelka had it's flaws, but was worth playing, SC1 was brilliantly dark (seriously, read some of the Monster Descriptions... they're just fucking horrible) SH:C was the greatest game ever made... and then.. to phrase it in a way that the younger audience would understand
SH:C is Dark Knight, SH:FTNW is Dark Knight Rises. Taken as a game on it's own, it's great, good story, great combat/level/gearing systems, good character, the only problem with it, is that it's predecessor was so GODTIER awesome.
Also, I forgot Champion of Norrath! Me and a friend got rreeaalllll fucking high and played Champions of Norrath and Back to Arms from start to end back to back just after BtA came out. Was soooo much fun
Check out the blog I write for LEGENDARY Indie Label Flicknife Records:
Blog Nine is live! It's like Mambo number five, but FOUR better! So read it now.
I dont know if i can only pick 3...

Ahh you look amazing, I want it to just be warm so I can dress like this despite Bestival being the only festival I am going to! There are SO MANY of those morph suits at Bestival! I went to Coachella this year and there was lots of girls going about barefoot in the grass and sunshine.... bliss x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous outfits, I love the first selection of clothes most, especially the fringing! x
Sirens and Bells
I loved this post- great idea and you look so stylish in each outfit!
I'm going to the 02 Wireless festival on the Saturday with Drake so this has given me some ideas. My dad has already purchased a rather fetching pink rain poncho for me in case of any bad weather!
What an impressive and varied range of outfits you have put together into one post. All we need now is a little less mud/wind/rain so that such lovely looks don't end up being covered over with a waterproof jacket!
I also wanted to thank you for taking the time to leave your very honest comment on my 'Mental health' post a while back.
These are all gorgeous looks Liv! I am lusting after the studded boots though - they must become a part of my life.
