I… I'm sorry, I'd… dispute the accuracy and generalization of this statement, and make some token argument like "well everyone has different tastes"… if…
If I didn't agree with it so vehemently and weren't laughing so hard
the el dorado/dragon age ii crossover is not my idea by any means obviously i just wanted to doodle tulio!hawke and miguel!anders ahahaha fuck
someday i will draw chell!fenris
I am squealing
CHEL!FENRIS NEEDS TO BE A THING RIGHT THE FUCK NOW RIGHT NOW RIGHT NOW NOW NOW give him the goddamn earrings~ (Zevran!Chel?)
Ignoring the fact that Isabela would make the most incredibly perfect Chel ever and are they actually the same person? I think they might be.
This crossover just needs to happen, okay, it needs to happen. Tzekel-Khan (BLOOD MAGERY!) and Chief Tannanbok are Orsino and Merideth (except Tanni's not, you know, psychotic). No, okay, CORTEZ is Merideth. Tanni's Aveline. The Mabari is Altivo.
Merrill is, obviously, the armadillo.
Idek who Varric would be. :c He can be the storyteller, telling everyone this weird story. At the Hanged Man.
"Did I ever tell you about these two crazy con-men I once knew? Kinda reminded me of you guys. So the story goes, they were gods once, but certain facets of their story might have been… exaggerated…"

My very first playthrough of Dragon Age 2, I did a custom Hawke. Red spiky hair, stubble - and he coincidentally came out looking pretty much MODEL-IDENTICAL to the street punk who nicks Hawke's money in Varric's first scene.
If you watch that opening scene, first you see him (the punk) sitting on the ground, watching people. And I was like "oh hey it's my Hawke, lookin' fine" and then it switches to Bethany/Carver and Actual Hawke talking, which confused me because wasn't he just sitting over there?
And naturally it gets weirder, because of course in a few seconds, MY HAWKE IS NOW GETTING ROBBED BY HIMSELF. He is watching his identical twin get pinned to a wall and smacked around by a dwarf.
Needless to say, this… rather confused me. I seriously thought it was a game glitch at first. (Well, I HAD bought my copy pre-owned.)
TA-DAAAHHH. Now you know the story of Sylver's First Stupid Hawke who looks exactly like a redheaded street punk, and it is now my headcanon that he actually has appeared as that punk in every subsequent playthrough, giving my future Hawkes a hard time.
And maybe he's in yours too.
Can you feel him? Can you feel my Doppleganger Hawke in your games? He's there. Watching. Always.
… And with that, I say good night.
And now, for my friend Sylver and for shits and giggles, a completely unfitting Dragon Age 2 tribute.
what am I looking at
I don't
I can't
Although - dude, you've never even played dA, have you? My gosh. How did you. even. This is ODDLY FITTING, with Fenris at least, because he, uh, actually is an ex-slave, so. KIND OF A FITTING SONG CHOICE?
what even. I just. am staring and. brain breaking and. what.
<3 You're awesome. You are insane, and your brain does things my brain does not understand, but you are awesome and thank you for this strange, strange present.
"you will never take another mage as you took him!"
One of many reasons why I ship Anders/Karl mega-hard. (Well. Aside from the fact that they were canonically together. I love it when my OTPs are at least temporarily canon.)
I just. Hnfnngh. ;_; I know it was over by that point in the universe's timeline, but I just love them. And that they so obviously still cared very deeply for one another.
My headcanon of Karl as a deeply passionate, eccentric, adorkable, excitable, emotional, hotheaded but ultimately optimistic and romantic (in both senses) guy just makes it hurt even more. Nobody deserves Tranquility, but especially not the laughing, vibrant man my imagination conjures up.

Aveline's all 'wtf is this shit?'
That is adorable.
I require your help.
I remember a meme going around, Hawke-ules, a combination of Hawke and Disney's Hercules, with the companions as the Muses. At one point, I saw a few verses of Zero to Hero, re-written for the DA2 cast.
I recall "Bless my soul, Hawke was on a roll, person of the week in every Kirkwall city poll," and that's about it.
If there is more that someone's already done, please share this with me. :3 I want to ensure they get the proper writing credit, and if there isn't much more, I will take on the JOYFUL DUTY of writing it. :D
I desire this for reasons. Musical reasons. I think you will enjoy.
I have nothing to contribute but this needs to be on my blog.

The romances in the game are not for "the straight male gamer". They're for everyone. We have a lot of fans, many of whom are neither straight nor male, and they deserve no less attention. We have good numbers, after all, on the number of people who actually used similar sorts of content in DAO and thus don't need to resort to anecdotal evidence to support our idea that their numbers are not insignificant… and that's ignoring the idea that they don't have just as much right to play the kind of game they wish as anyone else. The "rights" of anyone with regards to a game are murky at best, but anyone who takes that stance must apply it equally to both the minority as well as the majority. The majority has no inherent "right" to get more options than anyone else.

Memory Eternal! + Philip Haddad
Edward "Philip" A. Haddad died peacefully in his sleep with his beloved wife by his side.
Philip and Guinevere Haddad were married 64 years.
Philip was born and raised in Charleston and his parents were Andrew Haddad and Maheba Howard Haddad.
While in school, he served as a page in the West Virginia Senate. Philip always gave credit to Charles Lively, who arranged for him to serve in the Senate. He considered this experience an honor and very valuable later in life.
At an early, age Philip's father passed away and he left school to help his mother support the family. He went to work for his uncle in the produce business. Philip worked there until he enlisted in the U.S. Army Infantry. He obtained the rank of sergeant and was on Normandy Beach, France, the day following D-Day. While in the military, he was wounded and received two Purple Hearts. Part of his recuperation time was done at Ashford General Hospital, which is now The Greenbrier.
Many years later, Philip, his wife, and several friends visited Normandy, France, and met with the superintendent of the cemetery. When the superintendent learned that Philip had been on the beach, he presented him with an American flag similar to the ones placed on a fallen soldier's grave; a few pebbles from the beach; and Taps was played on his behalf.
After returning from the war, he married Guinevere Elias and they worked together as owners of a fruit stand, and later as owners of The Medicine Shoppes. They retired from The Medicine Shoppe at the age of 52. After that, he developed an interest in the real estate business, thus forming the Haddad Land Company. Gene Embrogno, a personal friend, became his mentor and Philip found his expertise invaluable.

|The Argentina Crisis - The Argentina Crisis Incomplete Essays In 1998, Argentina entered what turned out to be a four-year depression, during which its economy shrank 28 percent. Argentina's experience has been cited as an example of the failure of free markets and fixed exchange rates. Contrarily, Argentina's economic woes have been attributed to bad economic policies which converted a typical recession into a full depression. Three big tax increases in 2000-2001 discouraged growth, and interfering with the monetary system in mid 2001 created fear of currency devaluation.... [tags: History Historical Argentina Essays]

|Falklands War - Falklands War As soon as the war ended people wondered why Britain had won and why Argentina had lost. The conclusion made by the Americans is that it was that shifts in tactics, or weather may have changed the result of the war, but it would seem that Britain's training and leadership did decide the outcome. It is clear that the 25,000 men of the task force that sailed from Portsmouth in April 1982 were one of the most experianced, and certainly best trained forces that Britain had ever sent to war....

Key Drivers of ERP System Adoption in the Pharmaceutical Industry
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Few industries have as many regulatory agencies dictating how to process and control their product as the pharmaceutical industry. Some pharmaceutical companies may be able to remediate their existing legacy systems to meet compliance mandates. However, most have discovered these existing applications, even if upgraded, simply will not support compliance mandates. This has led many pharmaceutical firms to implement new, robust Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications to help them meet the newly imposed control standards.

"TRUE DREW" garners praise from his idol and reviewers as the first single climbs the charts
Towson, MD: An intimate musical portrait depicting the life and loves of a jazz man and his guitar, "TRUE DREW," the fifth album from Drew Davidsen, was released today by Oznot Records and drew praise from Davidsen's idol, contemporary jazz legend George Benson. Radio's introduction to the disc comes in the form of "Hi5," a cool-toned electric guitar joint textured with Latin piano and clubby electronic swatches of synth that is currently ascending the Billboard chart.
Benson, whose landmark "Breezin'" album is one of Davidsen's most important influences, said, "Drew Davidsen represents a fresh and new approach to the smooth jazz idiom. The elements are all there. His personality gives the music freshness. The addition of the flamenco influence to smooth jazz is something new. I suspect that Drew will be around a long time. What a great record."
Setting what he sees and experiences to music, Davidsen's compelling story entertains with each musical statement uttered using the voice of his guitar. Hailed as one of the 10 Hottest New Guitarists by Guitar Player magazine, Davidsen wrote or co-wrote seven tunes for the 12-song set on which he plays electric, acoustic, nylon and a custom made 24-fret Carvin guitar. He is an alchemist who mixes contemporary jazz sheen, funky R&B grooves, soulful blues-rock riffs and gospel inflections. Davidsen produced "TRUE DREW" with Norman Connors, Eric Copeland and Preston Glass in Los Angeles, New York and Nashville. Among his noteworthy collaborators are Eric Marienthal, Bobby Lyle, Bob Baldwin, Gerald Veasley and The Temptations' Ron Tyson.
Early reviewers agree with Benson's assessment of "TRUE DREW." Here is a sampling of what has been written thus far:
"Drew Davidsen is, hands down, one of the most refreshing guitarists I've experienced in contemporary jazz to date." —The Smooth Jazz Ride
"It's a CD that artistically moves him closer to players such as Pat Metheny, George Benson, Earl Klugh, Larry Carlton and Robben Ford from whom he has drawn both inspiration and musical direction. Not only that, 'TRUE DREW' marks out Davidsen as a guitarist with rhythm and melody at his fingertips." —Smooth Jazz Therapy
"His compositions are creative, his playing skillful, and his tone sweet. There's no doubt he is more than capable of holding his own against the best in the smooth jazz marketplace, and with 'TRUE DREW', his fifth solo outing, he's made an accomplished, interesting and considered album." —Bass Players United
"Drew Davidsen's star continues to rise, and it is very apparent this time out with these twelve tracks that truly deliver…There is a lot of great guitar and of course, 'TRUE DREW.'" —Smooth Views
"The 12 tracker is a great little smooth jazz set." —Soul and Jazz and Funk

Buenos Dias, señor y señora!
Of course, I'm talking Español, baby. And there's a new Spanish restaurant in the Queen City and it's called, Katsinoy.
Opened just recently, (January 5, 2014) Katsinoy is a mixed culture restaurant, specifically Kastila (Spanish) and Pinoy (Filipino) cuisine, designed for people who loves not just the themed resto, but also wants to experience the authentic and complimentary tastes of two cultures.
The place is a modernized style of a Spanish kitchen, and I noticed the only 'Spanish' touch was the sliding door and the flower paintings on the wall, and not to mention some paintings. And although, the price range is quite steep especially on their main dishes that ranges P290.00 to P390.00; the serving will indulge 2 persons already.
Try their Sausage Quesadilla that has a dry tortilla and complimentary chili dip that will cost you P169.00.
Also; try their U.S. Beef style main dish that costs P300.00+, and the taste are for those who loves tender yet bland beef style cooking.
Come visit the restaurant; Katsinoy is located at 19 A – El Dorado Subd., Banilad, A.S. Fortuna St., Cebu City, near the Banilad fly over.

This is a few hints I have created to help a Twitter colleague. Please feel free to add to it.
Firstly you should not go out on any moor or hill I'll-prepared.
Basics such as food, waterproofs, water and first aid kit is essential. Map should be Explorer 25000 for walking and preferably in a waterproof case. Plus a compass. GPS is NOT enough.
Footwear should be firm and boots preferred especially if going out away from your car.
Lots of great things for kids to do if you want something organised.
Cumbria Tourism will help find a wonderful collectioof child friendly activities
The Lake District national park will also help http://www.lakedistrict.gov.uk/
A simple good walk that most young folk can do is Cat Bells thos is one of my favourite short walks and have seen many young folk go up, the views are great.
For good walks of all shapes sizes and length go to David Hall who has an amazing collection
Boat trip around Ullswater is a must.
There are numerous tea shops and pubs doted across the Lakes all of which provide great value.
Windermere also contains a range of boat services as does Derwent.
Follow the country code, take your rubbish home, close all gates, keep the dogs on leads, etc etc
But enjoy yourselves.
WEATHER. It is important to look ahead. We have found the best site is
Spending a few minutes the night before studying this could be the difference between a great day and a disaster.
These are just a few hint for a newbe so add some comments and I will bring them into the next edition of this blog.
This is my personal blog for issues that I will make comment upon, my own views. Feel free to comment or connect with me

Upscale Donuts in the Third Ward
Short Order
ItŌĆÖs hard to miss the symbolism in Holey Moley Coffee + Doughnuts opening in the former Milwaukee Cupcake Company location at 316 N. Milwaukee St. When one pastry fad tapers, thereŌĆÖs always another to take its place. Opened in July to long lines, Holey Moley specializes in flavors you wonŌĆÖt find at chain donut places, including lemon old fashioned, sŌĆÖmores and cr├©me br├╗l├®e (a bestseller, complete with a caramelized crispy crust). Prices run a shade higher than the chains, at $1.75 for a simple donut and $2.50 for something more exotic, like a surprisingly subtle peanut butter-chocolate-bacon donut, which, like most of Holey MoleyŌĆÖs offerings, isnŌĆÖt quite as sweet as its ingredients hint. Vegan and gluten-free options are also available, along with a full menu of coffee and espresso drinks from Hawthorne Coffee Roastery, a Milwaukee company whose roasts trend very mild.

Everyone likes a good head scratch, including this adorable husky. At first he gives you these googly eyes, " What the heck is that thing and why is it so close to me?"
