As this is offered by my host, I let it get installed.

While I had some issues with caching and BlogText.. they ended up just going away.

NOT RECOMMENDED .. because it I wasn’t able to easily remove it from my site once it had its claws in it.

A man tails a racist who goes back in time to arm the slavers in the upcoming American Civil War.

Fair I guess. Not particularly time travel or science fiction, but once it gets into things it’s more of a period piece; not my thing.

A miniseries told around the Soviet Chernobyl disaster.

A tense, decently-paced look at how communist lies spell disaster, and how communism once again cost tens of thousands and almost tens of millions of lives.

Disgaea – Hour of Darkness – (2003 game) > Disgaea guide >

Item Specialists are the dots you see on items, and provide either a bonus to a stat or a special property.

You can talk to Ema to enter into an item. Random maps are created for you to fight, progress through, and improve it. A single one of those Item Specialist has a chance to appear in one of those maps. It has a yellow health bar, takes a turn after you, and is hostile to both you and the enemies. If you kill it, it becomes “subdued” and you are thereafter able to move it to other items for significant improvements.
