		<description><![CDATA[Fan Faire 2010!  New things and old favorites around every corner!  Bally&#8217;s still doesn&#8217;t have wifi, scooter rentals are fun and actually very affordable, and people both amiable and annoying abound.  Being Thursday, no panels today; just the Community Address and a podcast being recorded.  I&#8217;ve just gotten back from the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[District 9 came out in mid-August, 2009, and stars Sharlto Copley, a bunch of other people you don&#8217;t know, and a lot of CGI.
I quite liked it.
The premise is that 20 years ago, an alien spacecraft entered our atmosphere and came to a dead landing over Johannesburg, South Africa.  Human troops eventually flew up to [...]]]></description>

Lots and lots of changes happening on this front, most of them geared towards making things [...]]]></description>

Three months for one armor set &#8211; no wonder they spent so many years telling us new armor [...]]]></description>

Guild levels are going up with the next expansion of course, and while there&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

This covers not only new quests coming with future expansions and game updates, but current quests &#8211; the gate guard faction quests in Thundering Steppes are already [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There wasn&#8217;t a tradeskill-specific panel at FanFaire, which is probably a good thing or poor Domino would have been reduced to typing her responses on the projection screen.  She was hoarse at every single panel she did attend as it was &#8211; and there were quite a few.  Just because there wasn&#8217;t a [...]]]></description>

They gave us weapons!  Well, okay, they gave us a multi-tool that happens to include a saw-toothed and a straight-edged blade.  But still! [...]]]></description>

Yes, that&#8217;s a thumbs-up.  But wait, there&#8217;s more!
This movie has taken a lot of bashing from critics&#8211;the Tomatometer at rottentomatoes.com has it at a mere 20%.  Honestly I&#8217;m not sure what they [...]]]></description>
