A few interviews with Turbine’s Jeffrey Steefel have made their way online. The first is a short one conducted by Massively. It deals with his general feelings on how the expansion’s development has been going. To me, the biggest point of interest is that they’re already working on Volume 2, Book 7 with plans for it to hit sometime in the first quarter of next year. The second is up at IncGamers, a site I’m ...

درگیریهای "زمانه" از زاویه ای دیگراشاره: گفته بودم دیگر در مورد رادیو زمانه نخواهم نوشت. اگر اجازه بدهید این قول را تنها اینبار بشکنم. در رادیو زمانه دعوا و بلوایی بالا گرفته است که فقط منحصر به اخراج مهدی جامی نیست، شک نیست مسائل زیادی وجود دارند که یا سانسور و مسکوت می شوند (مانند این مطلب که ابراهیم نبوی در وبلاگش نوشت و بعد از چند ساعت با شگفتی تمام برداشت و نشان داد ...

Statsminister Anders Fogh Rasmussen skal i dag i samråd i Folketingets forsvarsudvalg for at besvare spørgsmål om iscenesættelsen af Irak-krigen. Den fornyede aktualitet er de berømte bemærkninger, som Jens Rohde i et øjebliks ærlighed kom for skade at levere i bogen Vejen til Irak , hvor han bl.a. udtalte, at regeringen “i offentligheden skabte et billede af masseødelæggelsesvåben”. Han henviste endvidere til, at beslutningsforslaget bag krigen ikke var i overensstemmelse med den fremstilling af krigsiscenesættelsen, ...

I know some people come here looking for help understanding Traits. I get the impression that some newer players aren’t sure how to even use them, necessarily. I’ve been putting off writing any basic guide to that for one reason: Mines of Moria is introducing a new Trait Set system that would probably invalidate half of what I would write. So as we wait, Turbine has posted another developer diary and this time it’s about ...

John Funk of WarCry had a chance to play around with Mines of Moria alongside Turbine’s Aaron Campbell back at PAX. This article was posted two weeks ago, but I just came across it today. It has some level of spoilers, but rarely gets too deep into things. I think most people could safely read through it, even if they want to be surprised by things. It doesn’t follow the actual flow of the game ...

Massively stumbled upon an article in the “Game Info” section of the LotRO Web site that discusses the upcoming Legendary Items mechanic. Some of this has been covered before, but it’s still good information for even those who have been paying attention. Legendary Items are found in chests, as rewards from instances or off of specific enemies. As previously discussed, they must be identified by a new Forge Master NPC in order to be equipped. ...

60 Minutes Interviewed Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad a couple of years ago. They cut some key passages out of the interview.I've made the same point at Informed Comment in the past.It is legitimate to decry his positions, and I decry a lot of them. It is not legitimate to misrepresent what he has said.By the way, Nazila Fathi at the NYT again today attributed to Ahmadinejad the phrase "wipe Israel off the face of the ...

Bruce Nauman, The True Artist Helps the World by Revealing Mystic Truths (Window or Wall Sign), neon, 1967. There’s an interview on Catherine Spaeth’s blog with gallery owner and blogger Ed Winkleman, where he says, “I don’t have much interest in anti-formalist conceptualism…I have seen tons of conceptual art that doesn’t raise the bar for formalism…my idea of conceptual art is that it must be compelling visually.”Agreed. And I’ll add that to be compelling visually, ...
