Fame is the currency besides Realm Gold, but unlike Realm Gold, Fame can only be achieved by playing the game itself. You have to die to collect what you've earned as each character. Fame can be spent on feeding or fusing pets
Fame can be gathered from defeating monsters. The harder the monsters you fight, the faster you gain fame.
At first, you won't be able to keep track of how much fame you earn. After you reach level 20 (the maximum level), you will see an orange bar replace the green one that shows your experience. This bar shows how much fame you have when you mouse over it, and will fill up as you gain fame for the particular character you're playing as.
If you complete enough class quests (completed by gaining a certain amount of fame for a character), your "star" will change color. This star shows how many class quests you have completed. You start off with a pale blue star. The highest level star is the white star. Your star is shown beside your name on the main screen. Stars are required for some basic functions of the game.
Fame used to be used to buy keys to dungeons, but with recent updates it can now only be used for feeding or fusing pets.

"Overall, my appearance is important to me, as I believe a put-together and at least somewhat stylish mode of dress is an important part of my witness as a Christian wife and mother."
I realize that there are a number of Christians who do not agree with me. The prominence of the one-size-fits-all jean jumper and floral print prairie dress in church circles are evidence of this fact. If you don't know what I am talking about, just attend a homeschool conference and you will see the wide gamut of interesting dress choices among Catholic mothers and their young daughters.
Dressing without concern for modern style or beauty greatly diminishes our ability to impact the world for Christ. Unlike a nun, who wears a habit to separate herself from the world, we are called to live in the world. We are called to be an example of holy, Christian living and our family is called to be an example of a holy, Christian family. Our bodies speak a language to others, and the way we dress ourselves and our children is our first statement to the world. In many instances, it may be the only statement we can make.
St. Josemaria Escriva, the founder of Opus Dei, makes this point in a far more eloquent manner--
I believe You should dress in accordance with the demands of your social standing, your family background, your work... as your companions do, but to please God: eager to present a genuine and attractive image of true Christian living. Do everything with naturalness, without being extravagant. I can assure you that in this matter it is better to err on the side of excess than to fall short. How do you think Our Lord dressed? Haven't you pictured to yourself the dignity with which he wore his seamless cloak which had probably been woven for him by Our Lady? Don't you remember how, in Simon's house, he was grieved because he had not been offered water to wash his hands before taking his place at the table? No doubt he drew attention to this example of bad manners to underline his teaching that love is shown in little details. But he also wants to make it clear that he stands by the social customs of his time, and therefore you and I must make an effort to be detached from the goods and comforts of the world, but without doing anything that looks odd or peculiar. (emphasis mine)
As Christian mothers, we must strike the difficult balance of detachment from worldly goods and yet presenting ourselves in a manner that is appropriate for our state in life. At a very basic level this means you should shower and make your hair presentable before leaving the house! Most of us will also need to own some formal dresses and jewelry. When we have a playdate with a friend or run to the grocery store, we should dress in manner that is appropriate for a casual gathering (for example modern slacks/jeans/fitted tops). Wearing a floor length floral print dress to the supermarket or a playdate at a local friends house would strike most as odd or peculiar. In general, our goal should be to dress in a manner that respects our femininity and beauty, but at the same time does not draw attention to our appearance. Dressing like we live in the Victorian era, not making time to shower, and/or pulling our unkempt hair up in an 80's style banana clip, are not likely to inspire others to follow Christ. We live in a secular world. If you want your faith and your values to be listened to, respected, and taken seriously, it helps significantly to dress the part.
In addition to our duty to present Christ to the world, we have an additional duty to take care of our appearance for our husband. St. Josemaria Escriva, in advising married couples, reminds wives of the following:
Another important thing is personal appearance. And I would say that any priest who says the contrary is a bad adviser. As years go by a woman who lives in the world has to take more care not only of her interior life, but also of her looks. Her interior life itself requires her to be careful about her personal appearance; naturally this should always be in keeping with her age and circumstances. I often say jokingly that older facades need more restoration. It is the advice of a priest. An old Spanish saying goes: 'A well-groomed woman keeps her husband away from other doors.'I realize this may sound very harsh but there is great wisdom and truth in St. Josemaria Escriva's words. I can think of countless women, myself included, who neglect their appearance and think little of how this affects their husbands. Whether it be through excessive weight gain, not taking the time to shower, or regularly wearing sweatpants, many of us neglect our appearance and forget that this has an effect on our marriage. When we love someone, we should want to look nice for them, do our hair, wear a little make-up, and dress in an attractive manner. Love is in the details. It is amazing how a little attention to detail can go a long way toward growing a happy and joy filled marriage.

"Local is lekker" just got a whole new meaning. According to Pornhub's Year in Review insights, the most searched porn term in 2014 for South Africa was "South African".
This is a significant increase from 2013 as "South African" moved up 29 places to make it last year's most searched porn term for local watchers. Interestingly, "Cartoon" came in second place and the always-popular search term, "Lesbian" came in third moving up 17 places from 2013.
Based on this study, South Africans like to get down and dirty on Sundays (naughty-naughty) and visit the site least on a Friday. New Year's Eve is the least popular holiday for visiting the site in South Africa.
Other interesting statistics are that Kim Kardashian is the most popular porn star in South Africa and 60% of visitors to the site access it via their phones.
Check out the full South African statistics for yourself:

If I had to sum up 2012 in one word I would say it's been a "Trying" year. I think as a parent it's been rough on me. I am still learning as I go – as most first time parents do. I don't know if having twins makes it harder or if it would be just as hard with one child or two children at different ages; that I will never know. It's been tough, but we made it through and I am determined to enjoy my life a little more in 2013. That's my resolution.
As a family we went through some changes this year. The boys of course are another year older and with that comes lots of crying, whining, screaming and temper tantrums. Eric changed jobs which is always stressful and an adjustment for us, but I think it was more so this time because he was in the middle of his semester at school, having to live without health insurance and without a paycheck right when we needed it for Christmas. We made it through like we always do though.
We took our first family vacation to Florida which was a blast (especially with two 19 month olds!). Summer was a lot of fun with the swing set, sandbox, trips to the park, splashing around in the kiddie pool and walks around the neighborhood in the wagon. Alex and Evan turned two in July with a Mickey Mouse themed Birthday party and we took a day trip to the Columbus Zoo in Ohio.
Fall is always a lot of fun with our annual trip to the Cider Mill, Halloween (the boys went as pumpkins) and cool crisp days. Alex and Evan attend school once a week now (part of a special education program) and they love it. Different toys and different people; plus they get to ride the school bus home!
Christmas was fun this year with the boys. Evan had a blast opening presents and Alex could play with the wrapping paper all day long. They got a lot of really nice things from family and friends.
Evan is your typical two year old. He loves to get into everything and anything. He is loud and determined and wants to do everything himself. He has a mischevious look to him, but if you catch him at the right time, he can melt your heart with his eyes and smile. He is also very smart.
Alex has come a long way this year. He has done close to 100 days of therapy this year. I didn't realize how much he has done until I really sat and thought about it. We are so proud of him and all the hard work he does. We know it isn't always fun but we know how important it is, that's why we push it. He still isn't anywhere near walking. He rolls and can sit pretty well but can't get into that position without assistance. We are thankful to have use of a stander for him and just three days ago he got his walker. The gait trainer we have been waiting 8 months for finally came in. I think 2013 will be a great year for Alex full of many more milestones and accomplishments. He has the best smile and his super cuteness gets you every time!
Although it's been a "trying" year and more stressful than years past, I am thankful for everything that God has blessed me with – most importantly my family. I wouldn't be who I am or where I am today without them. I love them all so very much.
Happy New Year to all of you and your families.
May 2013 bring hope, happiness and strength to all of us.

Holiday Cottages in Wales
Spectacular scenery, stunning beaches, rich heritage and vibrant cities makes Wales a must-visit country.
How best to describe Wales? Do we focus on the spectacular countryside that is found in every corner of the country? The six AONBs and three National Parks that contain grandiose mountain ranges, deep forests, cascading waterfalls and crystal lakes? Where you can see hundreds of species of wildlife including deer, ospreys and dolphins?
Or what about the beaches? Wales has some amazing beaches for surfers, sand lovers, walkers, and nature watchers, one of which, Rhossili Beach, has been voted one of the top ten beaches in the world two years running.
But that would ignore the rich heritage that Wales has. The country has three UNESCO World Heritage Sites and hundreds of ancient monuments, as well as its vast industrial heritage and over six hundred castles.
And we haven't even mentioned the towns and cities. The Welsh valleys are full of picturesque villages and Cardiff and Swansea are vibrant cities, full of culture and fun.
So, how best to describe Wales? It's a difficult one, isn't it?

A Healthy Twist on a Classic Eggplant Recipe
THURSDAY, July 11, 2019 (HealthDay News) -- Eggplant is a high-fiber food that will leave you feeling satisfied and well-nourished. Most people think of the classic purple-colored vegetable, but eggplant comes in many varieties, colors and even shapes. All are perfect for a lighter take on a classic eggplant dish that your whole family will love.
One secret to making this Italian standard healthier is using a skillet technique to cook the eggplant. This limits the amount of oil it will absorb. The slices won't be greasy, and the dish will have fewer calories.
Lighter Eggplant Parmesan
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Sprinkle eggplant slices with salt. Set in a colander for 30 minutes to release some of the vegetable's moisture. Rinse and pat the slices dry.
Coat a large, heavy skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Place the pan over medium heat and add a few of the eggplant slices. Cover and reduce heat to low. Cook two to three minutes until the slices brown. Lightly spray the tops of the slices with cooking spray and flip them. Cook another two to three minutes, until browned. Repeat the steps with the rest of the eggplant slices.
Mix the ricotta with the egg and the basil in a medium bowl; set aside. Spread one cup of tomato sauce inside a square baking dish. Add a layer of eggplant slices, and then sprinkle on one cup of mozzarella. Spread on the ricotta mixture. Add another layer of eggplant and the rest of the sauce. Top with the rest of the mozzarella and sprinkle with the Parmesan.
Bake 30 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and golden. Rest five minutes, then serve.
Yield: 4 servings

Employee Motivation, Recognition, and Rewards
Adriane L Thompson
Developing a Business Perspective
February 20, 2011
This paper will address why employee motivation, recognition and rewards keeps employees working effectively and efficiently. Employee motivation is very important to a company's production and quality of work, It is important for management and companies to recognize employees' hard work and have an incentive program to show appreciation.
Companies should welcome quality employee-training programs essential to keeping employees motivated about learning new concepts. An incentive, promotions and reward programs from management shows how valuable employees are to the company or department.
Employee Motivation
Every person no matter, where they are from has different reasons for working. However, they all work because they get something that they need from work, whether it is a volunteer or payroll job. The something obtained from work. Whether it is the paycheck, bonuses, enjoyment or just to get out of the house. Some people work for love, fulfillment. Some work to accomplish goals or feel as if they contribute to something larger than they are. To create positive employee motivation, treat employees as if they matter with recognition and rewards. Motivation gives employees direction to achieve a specific goal. Motivating your employees help, your businesses survive and prosper.
Employee motivation is an ongoing challenge for most companies. More often in work environments that do not stress employee satisfaction as part of a supported overall strategy, supervisors have it the hardest. On the other hand, they recognize their power in drawing forth the best employees have to offer. When working in a call center, it is often chaotic; success depends on employees working to their full potential. In spite of the theories and practices, supervisors often view motivation as something of the past. This is because individuals are motivated by different things and in different ways.
Everyone will eventually motivated by something. Whether it is from people, activities, family, hobbies, or work, we all experience some type of motivation. Work motivation depends on the work environment. It may be personal needs from work or the interaction of these needs with the company or organization to support the accomplishment of their goals. The purpose of motivation is to create job stability, loyalty, promotion, and growth, along with respect to upper management.
Individuals should find out what motivates them whether it is at work or home, if the use their inner motivation they will find that they are creative, effective, and productive. Employers should implement self-motivation within their organization. If they help, employees find what motivates them and that in turn will help them be better employees. "The naturally endowed needs, drivers, or desires that motivate a person to some particular action or behavior" (2009 C. Robinson).
Recognition and Rewards
Treating employees like family will make your business successful for many years. Spargins, (1992). There will be less turnover rate or no turnover at all. Work with employees scheduling issues a happy employee makes a loyal one. Taking the time to communicate with
employees will give them the opportunity to communicate better with you and if they do not know how to communicate teach them. "It's not me that makes the company tick, it's everyone else," (p.31).
All employees work for some type of reward the bigger or better the reward, the more the employee is willing to work (Linder 1998). Although managers focus on the bad things, they should also focus on the good things and reward the employees for those and they will most likely repeat them.
A rewards strategy should be the game plan for companies to achieve a target...

Mayor Dave wrote a pretty amusing response to a Rick Berg column the other day, in which he basks in the glory of showing the conservative columnist "the light."
In the last issue of the Isthmus (you can still grab ten copies for your friends on newsstands today!), Berg grovels and begs my forgiveness for a blasphemous piece he wrote about a year ago after I returned from Freiburg, Germany. Having returned from the Mountain Top after a sister city visit there last June, I expressed my admiration for the city in general and the almost auto free Vauban neighborhood in particular. At the time, Rick wrote that I should have had another beer and left the crazy lefty-green ideas back in the Fatherland.
Hmm…was ist a guy named Cieslewicz doing calling Deutschland "das Vaterland"? In fact, this is the man who once extended his hand to Sara Mikolajczak, the former head of the College Republicans, and said "from one Pole to another." Perhaps he is referring to Berg, who apparently is German.
Either way, Dave won on this one, not necessarily because the plan he cites is realistic in Madison, but because he made a right winger acknowledge that Europe is sometimes different for the better, rather than worse. It's too bad Berg didn't try to find out during his time in Germany why people all across that continent live so long despite their failure of a health care system. In wine-drinking France, in lager-chugging Britain, in vodka-guzzling Sweden – it must be something they put in the cigarettes.
Also, Dave's post today focused on the Business Improvement District (BID), which is up for renewal today.
The BID does a lot of things for the downtown. It helps promote the area by supporting events like Maxwell Street Days, Cars on State and the Downtown Madison Holiday Open House. It produces the Downtown Madison Gift Certificate Program and the Downtown Madison Map and Guide. It does a tremendous job of fostering a welcoming environment downtown through its Information Ambassador Program – which helped nearly 28,000 downtown customers in 2008 alone – and enhancements to the area's physical environment, dressing the downtown with flowers during the warmer months and holiday lights during our colder months.
Sounds OK, but I only want this association to go on if it's agreed upon that the lights they put on State St are officially "Christmas lights." That being said, even if they continue with the offensive "Holiday Lights," Madison can still reap benefits from the blasphemy by getting prime time coverage on the O'Reilly Factor. Win-Win situation.
Also, Jason Joyce, where the hell did you weekly exegesis on Mayor Dave's schedule go? Is this being outsourced to the Sconz or am I just incapable or searching your site?

Beautiful Jaguar C-X75 will now not go ahead in 2013.
A little late with this news, but I was gutted when I found out recently that Jaguar have scrapped the idea of manufacturing the beautiful Jaguar C-X75, which is apparently due to the ongoing global economic crisis. Maybe this is the reason, maybe not, but you can be sure we'll probably never know the real reason.
Were Jaguar worried about another XJ220 sales performance? Personally I'd like Jaguar to go back to its roots and make racing cars for the road or sexy looking machines. The Jaguar C-X75 was one beautiful concept car, but many manufacturers can make a concept car, it's the companies that do make these concept cars that show real ambition and passion. A little madness once in a while is good.
Let's hope that the C-X75 or a similar model will be made at some point in the future. In the meantime let's hope that Jaguar puts the investment required for the C-X75 into other areas, though you can be sure the money already spent won't have gone to waste as the move to hybridisation gathers momentum.
Three of the five prototypes built will be sold – lucky owners. Three of them will apparently be auctioned off. Form an orderly queue…
Do you think this is a wise decision by Jaguar or not to scrap the beautiful Jaguar C-X75?
