Brooklyn is one of the five boroughs (in addition to the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island) that make up New York City, the most populous city in the US, and one of the most exciting and diverse cities in the world. Being at the center of international finance, politics, entertainment and culture, there is so much to see and do in "the city that never sleeps" that one could live there a lifetime and never experience it all. From museums to restaurants to historical landmarks to shopping, no other city has contributed more images to the collective consciousness of Americans, which makes it a fascinating place to visit. Every neighborhood has its own distinct feel and personality. You can walk for blocks and blocks discovering new things at every turn. That's why the best way to see New York City is by pounding the pavement. Be sure to bring a good pair of walking shoes!

Ever since J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis created the worlds of Middle Earth and Narnia, it seems like every windbag off the street thinks he can write great, original fantasy, too. The problem is that most of this "great, original fantasy" is actually poor, derivative fantasy. Frankly, we're sick of it, so we've compiled a list of rip-off tip-offs in the form of an exam. We think anybody considering writing a fantasy novel should be required to take this exam first. Answering yes to any one question results in failure and means that the prospective novel should be abandoned at once.
1. Does nothing happen in the first fifty pages?
2. Is your main character a young farmhand with mysterious parentage?
3. Is your main character the heir to the throne but doesn't know it?
4. Is your story about a young character who comes of age, gains great power, and defeats the supreme badguy?
5. Is your story about a quest for a magical artifact that will save the world?
6. How about one that will destroy it?
7. Does your story revolve around an ancient prophecy about "The One" who will save the world and everybody and all the forces of good?
8. Does your novel contain a character whose sole purpose is to show up at random plot points and dispense information?
9. Does your novel contain a character that is really a god in disguise?
10. Is the evil supreme badguy secretly the father of your main character?
11. Is the king of your world a kindly king duped by an evil magician?
12. Does "a forgetful wizard" describe any of the characters in your novel?
13. How about "a powerful but slow and kind-hearted warrior"?
14. How about "a wise, mystical sage who refuses to give away plot details for his own personal, mysterious reasons"?
15. Do the female characters in your novel spend a lot of time worrying about how they look, especially when the male main character is around?
16. Do any of your female characters exist solely to be captured and rescued?
17. Do any of your female characters exist solely to embody feminist ideals?
18. Would "a clumsy cooking wench more comfortable with a frying pan than a sword" aptly describe any of your female characters?
19. Would "a fearless warrioress more comfortable with a sword than a frying pan" aptly describe any of your female characters?
20. Is any character in your novel best described as "a dour dwarf"?
21. How about "a half-elf torn between his human and elven heritage"?
22. Did you make the elves and the dwarves great friends, just to be different?
23. Does everybody under four feet tall exist solely for comic relief?
24. Do you think that the only two uses for ships are fishing and piracy?
25. Do you not know when the hay baler was invented?
26. Did you draw a map for your novel which includes places named things like "The Blasted Lands" or "The Forest of Fear" or "The Desert of Desolation" or absolutely anything "of Doom"?
27. Does your novel contain a prologue that is impossible to understand until you've read the entire book, if even then?
28. Is this the first book in a planned trilogy?
29. How about a quintet or a decalogue?
30. Is your novel thicker than a New York City phone book?
31. Did absolutely nothing happen in the previous book you wrote, yet you figure you're still many sequels away from finishing your "story"?
32. Are you writing prequels to your as-yet-unfinished series of books?
33. Is your name Robert Jordan and you lied like a dog to get this far?
34. Is your novel based on the adventures of your role-playing group?
35. Does your novel contain characters transported from the real world to a fantasy realm?
36. Do any of your main characters have apostrophes or dashes in their names?
37. Do any of your main characters have names longer than three syllables?
38. Do you see nothing wrong with having two characters from the same small isolated village being named "Tim Umber" and "Belthusalanthalus al'Grinsok"?
39. Does your novel contain orcs, elves, dwarves, or halflings?
40. How about "orken" or "dwerrows"?
41. Do you have a race prefixed by "half-"?
42. At any point in your novel, do the main characters take a shortcut through ancient dwarven mines?
43. Do you write your battle scenes by playing them out in your favorite RPG?
44. Have you done up game statistics for all of your main characters in your favorite RPG?
45. Are you writing a work-for-hire for Wizards of the Coast?
46. Do inns in your book exist solely so your main characters can have brawls?
47. Do you think you know how feudalism worked but really don't?
48. Do your characters spend an inordinate amount of time journeying from place to place?
49. Could one of your main characters tell the other characters something that would really help them in their quest but refuses to do so just so it won't break the plot?
50. Do any of the magic users in your novel cast spells easily identifiable as "fireball" or "lightning bolt"?
51. Do you ever use the term "mana" in your novel?
52. Do you ever use the term "plate mail" in your novel?
53. Heaven help you, do you ever use the term "hit points" in your novel?
54. Do you not realize how much gold actually weighs?
55. Do you think horses can gallop all day long without rest?
56. Does anybody in your novel fight for two hours straight in full plate armor, then ride a horse for four hours, then delicately make love to a willing barmaid all in the same day?
57. Does your main character have a magic axe, hammer, spear, or other weapon that returns to him when he throws it?
58. Does anybody in your novel ever stab anybody with a scimitar?
59. Does anybody in your novel stab anybody straight through plate armor?
60. Do you think swords weigh ten pounds or more?
61. Does your hero fall in love with an unattainable woman, whom he later attains?
62. Does a large portion of the humor in your novel consist of puns?
63. Is your hero able to withstand multiple blows from the fantasy equivalent of a ten pound sledge but is still threatened by a small woman with a dagger?
64. Do you really think it frequently takes more than one arrow in the chest to kill a man?
65. Do you not realize it takes hours to make a good stew, making it a poor choice for an "on the road" meal?
66. Do you have nomadic barbarians living on the tundra and consuming barrels and barrels of mead?
67. Do you think that "mead" is just a fancy name for "beer"?
68. Does your story involve a number of different races, each of which has exactly one country, one ruler, and one religion?
69. Is the best organized and most numerous group of people in your world the thieves' guild?
70. Does your main villain punish insignificant mistakes with death?
71. Is your story about a crack team of warriors that take along a bard who is useless in a fight, though he plays a mean lute?
72. Is "common" the official language of your world?
73. Is the countryside in your novel littered with tombs and gravesites filled with ancient magical loot that nobody thought to steal centuries before?
74. Is your book basically a rip-off of The Lord of the Rings?
75. Read that question again and answer truthfully.

Το Μπρούκλιν είναι ένας από τους πέντε δήμους (εκτός από το Bronx, το Μανχάτταν, τις βασίλισσες και το νησί Staten) που αποτελούν την πόλη της Νέας Υόρκης, την πιό πυκνοκατοικημένη πόλη στις ΗΠΑ, και μια από τη διέγερση και τις διαφορετικές πόλεις στον κόσμο. Όντας στο κέντρο της διεθνών χρηματοδότησης, της πολιτικής, της ψυχαγωγίας και του πολιτισμού, υπάρχει τόσο μεγάλο μέρος που βλέπει και που κάνει "στην πόλη που ποτέ ύπνοι" ότι κάποιος δεν θα μπορούσε να ζήσει εκεί μια διάρκεια ζωής και να την δοκιμάσει ποτέ όλες. Από τα μουσεία στα εστιατόρια στα ιστορικά ορόσημα στις αγορές, καμία άλλη πόλη δεν έχει συμβάλει περισσότερες εικόνες στη συλλογική συνείδηση Αμερικανών, η οποία την κάνει μια συναρπαστική θέση που επισκέπτεται. Κάθε γειτονιά έχει της ευδιάκριτο να αισθανθεί και την προσωπικότητα. Μπορείτε να περπατήσετε για τους φραγμούς και τους φραγμούς ανακαλύπτοντας τα νέα πράγματα σε κάθε στροφή. Ότι γιατί ο καλύτερος τρόπος να δει η πόλη της Νέας Υόρκης είναι με το σφυροκόπημα του πεζοδρομίου. Να είστε βέβαιος να φέρει ένα καλό ζευγάρι του περπατήματος των παπουτσιών!

Dandelion don't tell no lies

Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite. Yet Empress Laseen's rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins. For Sergeant Whiskeyjack and his squad of Bridgeburners, and for Tattersail, surviving sorceress of the Second Legion, the aftermath of the siege of Pale should have been a time to mourn the many dead. But Darujhistan, last of the Free Cities of Genabackis, yet holds out and it is to this ancient citadel that Laseen turns her predatory gaze.

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

I'm sad now.sgtnull wrote:Το Μπρούκλιν είναι ένας από τους πέντε δήμους (εκτός από το Bronx, το Μανχάτταν, τις βασίλισσες και το νησί Staten) που αποτελούν την πόλη της Νέας Υόρκης, την πιό πυκνοκατοικημένη πόλη στις ΗΠΑ, και μια από τη διέγερση και τις διαφορετικές πόλεις στον κόσμο. Όντας στο κέντρο της διεθνών χρηματοδότησης, της πολιτικής, της ψυχαγωγίας και του πολιτισμού, υπάρχει τόσο μεγάλο μέρος που βλέπει και που κάνει "στην πόλη που ποτέ ύπνοι" ότι κάποιος δεν θα μπορούσε να ζήσει εκεί μια διάρκεια ζωής και να την δοκιμάσει ποτέ όλες. Από τα μουσεία στα εστιατόρια στα ιστορικά ορόσημα στις αγορές, καμία άλλη πόλη δεν έχει συμβάλει περισσότερες εικόνες στη συλλογική συνείδηση Αμερικανών, η οποία την κάνει μια συναρπαστική θέση που επισκέπτεται. Κάθε γειτονιά έχει της ευδιάκριτο να αισθανθεί και την προσωπικότητα. Μπορείτε να περπατήσετε για τους φραγμούς και τους φραγμούς ανακαλύπτοντας τα νέα πράγματα σε κάθε στροφή. Ότι γιατί ο καλύτερος τρόπος να δει η πόλη της Νέας Υόρκης είναι με το σφυροκόπημα του πεζοδρομίου. Να είστε βέβαιος να φέρει ένα καλό ζευγάρι του περπατήματος των παπουτσιών!
Two years ago I could probably have understood that

ROOFTOP IN A THUNDERSTORM ROW MISSING THE POINT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With yellow, red and roomy food, and quivered
crouching on a golden cushion
undressed himself to disappear
through an infinity of pleasure
and smiled to free the running me
with "Am I my brother's keeper?"
his meek hand on devils gloves
shaping running blood.
The prophecy, to recreate the truth
in visions of a seasonal mood
in truth, the only sight he saw
lay hidden in the bathroom door
and spat on the rug
as high is high, so low is low
and that's the end of it.
