1. Fan -- Fans
   Fan-carving is the process of slicing wood into thin blades (feathers) and then turning and interlocking them to create a 3-dimensional design from one piece of wood. Fans and birds are the most popular items made.
2. Fan -- Fan Profile
   Fan Profiles add a new dimension to Friendster's broad and global social network, and the feature has the potential to gain traction domestically and internationally. Friendster currently receives nearly 30 million monthly unique visitors and serves over 250 million pages daily to a user base in more than 75 countries.* Additionally, Friendster is a top-100 Web site in 17 countries on four continents.
3. Fan -- Fan Fair
   All attendees of Fan Faire will have access to an exclusive first-look hands-on demo play of the exciting new game co-published by Platform Publishing and Perpetual Entertainment shipping later this year. Don't miss this chance to talk to the developers, share your feedback and get behind-the-scenes information on the making of this innovative new game.
4. Passions -- Fans
   In 2003, Passions submitted a trained orangutan named BamBam, who had been portraying the recurring role of Precious, for a Daytime Emmy Award. Precious was the non-speaking live-in nurse and caregiver for elderly Edna Wallace (Kathleen Noone), and held an unrequited love for Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald (Galen Gering), which was depicted in elaborate fantasy sequences. In early 2004, the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, which administers the awards, disallowed the entry with the following statement:
5. Fan Fiction
   The Murloc is Lonely, an ever-evolving Fan Fiction has recently passed its 1-year anniversary. You can see all sections of The Murloc is Lonely by clicking here, and be sure to read the latest addition to Book Two here.
6. Christian Bale -- Fans
   Christian Bale's fan sites are mostly run by women who can't mask their admiration for his good looks. His square jaw, strong hazel eyes and almost model-like symmetry make him a versatile actor who is -- apparently -- easy on the eyes.
7. Courtney Love -- Fans
   Courtney Love is continually shocking her fans by throwing concerts dressed like a streetwalker one day and appearing at the Golden Globe's dressed in haute couture the next. Call her what you will, but it's evident that this blonde sensation won't be fading away anytime soon.
8. X-Files -- Fans
   Webmaster "Brynna" writes that the Deep Background web site is intended for "helping writers of X-Files fan fiction with their writing." She assumes her readers are already familiar with the show, and provides information not found on most X-Files sites.
9. Fan Fiction -- Stories
   Fan fiction has become more popular and widespread since the advent of the World Wide Web. Many archives such as The Gossamer Project were created, hosting specific sorts of stories, or stories for specific fandoms. In 1998 FanFiction.Net came online. At the time of its initial creation, it accepted any sort of writing, original or fan fiction. It has since separated its original fiction section to another website and banned several subgenres, including explicitly sexual stories (referred to as "NC-17" before the Motion Picture Association of America chose to enforce its ownership of the MPAA ratings system), real person fiction, and stories featuring song lyrics (the latter two in order to avoid legal problems, including copyright infringement for unauthorized use of lyrics). This ability to self-publish fan fiction at a common archive, and the ability to review the stories directly on the site, became popular quite quickly.
10. American Idol -- Fans
    Fans of the American Idol television show might want to consider buying this, the first American Idol board game, if they really want the sing-along CD, but there's nothing else that makes it worthy of a purchase. Don't go in expecting anything more than a game that lets you sing some karaoke.
