Under rating threshold (hideshow) This game couldn't be any more pay to win if it tried, you can't even complete your training quests without buying into the game, as you'll be forced to pit your terrible starter deck against high tier finished decks of people who have been spending.

Under rating threshold (hideshow) The speed needs to be improved, a PVP takes me 20 mins to finish,and most time is waiting system lag, ridiculous

Under rating threshold (hideshow) Why, in ALL fantasy games are the female characters dressed so ridiculously riske and are insanely buxom?? Why does it have to be that way, eh??
Jul. 16, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) why is this game not loading I have tried it on firefox and chrome
Jul. 11, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) I love this game's ; guilds, cards, art style, cartoony aspect, and well music all really well done plus I love the marketplace and I've played this game for a long time getting a neat little elfine deck (this was on the main website and they lost my account....yeah) and It was amazing yet...everytime i would get a card that NO one uses It would cost like 20000 crystals or 499 Fee'z which is insane. I would understand paying money for a different card skin (ex: if you don't have the card its 299 but if you do have the card it cost 99 and you trade your regular card for the re-skin) So booster packs that cost crystals would be a brillant edition to this game and maybe more crystals instead of 30 per win and maybe a slot machine that "might" give a card (totally didn't steal that from elements)

Under rating threshold (hideshow) Nice graphics, cool characters, awesome guilds, but the rate of feez/crystals we need to pay to be superior? Oy vey.
Jun. 29, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) I think this is a unique game with an interesting battle system, but the lack of fee'z and high grinding sorta kills it for me.

Under rating threshold (hideshow) its a good game but i don't like online interactions
May. 18, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) I honestly love this game I believe if they made it so you don't have to pay to play and be good at least this would be top CCG cause this has the best style
May. 11, 2014
Apr. 29, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) A good game except the fact that you really need to spend on money on buying fee'z to actually progress in the multiplayer front.

Under rating threshold (hideshow) Why would I bother playing on here when I can't access my real account. Kongregate always automatically creates a brand new account for me, then auto logs it in, so I don't even get the opportunity to log into my account that I have spent so much time on.
Apr. 4, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) This game is great but it's clearly seen that all the promotions are an attempt to gain more revenue. Please, improve the game mechanics and gameplay. I can assure you by doing that, the game would have much more to offer (it's really a great game) which would increase the amount of active players. There aren't much players who don't play for free here (judging from the epic cards you face in tournaments and lvl 8s with epic cards...). And that's sad, the game would be a lot better if it was free-gamer friendly as well.
Under rating threshold (hideshow) The english is poor in this game. Understood since it's french base i think but haven't you guys made enough money (since all the good things cost Fees) to improve the game? If you ever decide to, the top comments here are a good start.

Under rating threshold (hideshow) So I've been playing this game a while and just found out that you receive cards from the basic set every time you beat a boss. This is great for free players and more folks should know about it.

Under rating threshold (hideshow) No offense the tutorial girl looks stupid
Feb. 14, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) It's ok, wish the packs were cheaper. :/
Feb. 14, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) Creative gameplay, the money grabbiness worries me not so much, most people quit out of the uncontinuability of this game. Most people don't come to the point where they need to pay to win, so I don't really mind.
Feb. 5, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) For those that wanna try this game dispite all these comments Put Referral Code B246C3 and you will get BONUS FREE CRYSTALS SO YOU WILL START WITH MORE CARDS
Feb. 4, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) It's fascinating to see how a game with interesting gameplay, beautiful, creative artwork and nice humor can completely fail because of the ridiculous money-grabbing mentality of the developers. I frequently check the game to see if anything has changed, but as it stands Feerik doesn't seem to understand that they have to give players something to get them hooked to the game so they are actually willing to buy something. I mean that "Welcome to Eredan, now give us your money!" might not be the best strategy.
Jan. 30, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) The character design of this game is amazing, and the gameplay is continually interesting, once you get the hang of it. If we could just get a little more incentive for free players to stick with it and maybe simplify the wording on some cards (ie saying -1atk/card attached to defendant instead of long strings of text) then this game would blow up fantastically well.
Jan. 10, 2014
Jan. 9, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) too bad this game is a bit pay to win, other than that it's a good game
Jan. 8, 2014
Under rating threshold (hideshow) After year i try this game again but my disgust with state of this game still persist.Even that i find some feez is not enough.I just dont want to see this game again. So grats to make ppl really disgusted and its persistent.When i remember all that grinding fro nothing.

Under rating threshold (hideshow) Isn't this made by the Urban Rival idiots who focus on pay to play?
Dec. 8, 2013
Under rating threshold (hideshow) What I think will make the game better is the ability to sell your adventure items in the market, this will more likely keep the older players on the game and attract new players, as this can be a way to exchange your cards as well as it about fees so that there is a way to obtain them without paying. However, it could also be a benefit to the company as more and better cards will be available (that cost fees) in the market so that people would want to buy them.
Dec. 4, 2013
Nov. 19, 2013
Nov. 18, 2013
Under rating threshold (hideshow) This game desperately needs a booster pack or two that can be bought with crystals and not cash. As it is now, there's almost no way to get ANY cards at all for anyone starting out. Cards in the market are usually several hundred or thousand crystals, and as it is it's already hard enough to find cards that really match your 3 characters in your deck, especially the noz. This game is definitely for people willing to spend a good chunk of cash and expect a low player base. There are many other card games here on kong that are more entertaining and a lot easier to get cards in without paying at all.

Mighty Morphin 2
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is a live-action television series. The first season first aired on Fox Kids on August 28, 1993, and ended on May 23, 1994. Although it was a children's series, it became an iconic part of 1990s pop culture.
On January 2, 2010 a reversion of the season with a new logo, comic book-inspired graphics, and alternative special effects began airing on ABC Kids, but was pulled from the schedule after 32 episodes. The reversion was at one point considered the 18th official season of Power Rangers. However, when Power Rangers Samurai aired, material began referring to Samurai as the 18th.
Long ago, the ancient wizard Zordon did battle with the evil witch Rita Repulsa. After long years of battle, he managed to defeat her using five magical power coins. As punishment for her loss, she was sealed in a canister on the Earth's moon. However, before being sealed away, Rita trapped Zordon in a time warp.
10,000 years later, Rita and her minions have escaped their prison and are out to conquer Earth. Zordon, desperate to stop her, has his assistant Alpha 5 recruit five "teenagers with attitude": Jason, Trini, Kimberly, Zack, and Billy. Granted the powers of prehistoric animals in the form of Power Coins, they become the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
After several losing battles, Rita captures a newcomer to Angel Grove named Tommy Oliver and brainwashes him to become her Evil Green Ranger. Though Tommy inflicts repeated and crushing defeats to the Rangers, they are ultimately able to wrest control of his mind away from Rita, and he joins the team as the sixth Power Ranger. His first stint with the Rangers would be short lived, however, when Rita creates a mystical green candle to strip Tommy of his powers and return them to her control. Tommy elects to give what little remains of his powers to Jason in order to keep them away from Rita.
The Rangers continue to battle Rita's increasingly evil schemes, and Tommy is later brought back to their side (albeit in limited capability) when Zordon is able to infuse his Power Coin with his own ancient power. However, Rita's presence only invites even more trouble...

- List of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers monsters
Power Lance
This is the personal weapon of the Blue Ranger. A double-bladed lance that is close in height to the Blue Ranger itself, it can split into a pair of trident-like sai blades, the size of escrima sticks. When used as a part of the Power Blaster, it forms two of the five laser barrels. Billy calls his weapon the Mighty Maces. Different Drum It can generate electricity.
Power Daggers
This is the personal weapon of the Yellow Ranger and her successor. A twin pair of yellow short-bladed daggers, they are effective as both melee weapons and projectile weapons. When used as part of the Power Blaster, it forms two of the five laser barrels. Trini also calls her weapons the Dino Daggers.Different Drum The daggers can generate an energy double slash.
Power Bow
This is the personal weapon of the Pink Ranger though her successor was never shown using it. It fires projectile pink arrows at enemies, something Kimberly often did from midair. The arrows themselves appeared to be explosive on impact, shown when Kimberly fought Spit Flower.The Spit Flower When used as part of the power blaster, it crosses over the top of the Power Axe, forming a bar that holds the Power Daggers and Power Lance. It can be used as a melee weapon in the video game adaptation, similar to the Ptera Arrow weapon on which it is based, although Kimberly used her bow in this way as well on occasion. Kimberly also calls her weapon the Battle Bow.Different Drum It can transform into a harp as well.
Power Blaster
A powerful assemblage of all 5 of the core Rangers' Weapons: Red Power Sword, Black Power Axe, Blue Power Lance, Yellow Power Daggers, and Pink Power Bow. Used as a finisher on small monsters. Sometimes it wouldn't manage to destroy them before Rita or Zedd could make the monster grow.
It resembles a crossbow, and its two central pieces were the Power Bow and the Power Axe. The Power Blaster was formed by placing the Power Bow horizontally within the locking mechanism of the Power Axe in Cannon Mode, with the Power Dagger's and separated Power Lance Mace's connected to the length of the Bow, with their handles facing forward, acting as additional barrels to the cannon. The Power Sword, the key to the Blaster, was locked in on top of the cannon, similar to where an arrow would be placed in a crossbow. The Power Blaster was used by the first team of Rangers extensively and only once by the second team Scavenger Hunt before switching to the Power Cannon.
Dragon Dagger
The Dragon Dagger is the personal weapon of the Green Ranger. It is used to summon and control the Dragonzord by playing it like a flute; anyone who has the Dragon Dagger can summon Dragonzord from the Ocean, such as Goldar. It could project green concussive blasts of energy, and would often be coupled with the Red Ranger's Power Sword for even stronger blasts. Due to this complementary temperament, when Jason was given the remnants of Tommy's Green Ranger Powers he used the Dragon Dagger extensively, until the latter returned. Jason was the only other Power Ranger trusted with the Dragon Dagger. It would later be utilized by Tom Oliver, Tommy's Green Ranger clone, as well as by a dream version of the Green Ranger in Power Rangers Dino Thunder.
The Dagger was eventually put into storage in the Command Centre along with The Dragon Power until it was stolen by Billy while under the control of Rita and given to Goldar. After Tommy's powers were restored by Zordon he later reclaimed the dagger and kept it as his primary weapon until his powers were fully drained by Lord Zedd and coin and dagger disintegrated.
After the Dragon Power coin and powers were recreated by the Wizard the Dagger was recreated as well and used as Tom Oliver's primary weapon to face Tommy. After Tom Oliver was defeated he kept the Dragon Power Coin and the Dagger still existed.
After Tommy's powers were restored to battle the Armada he once again had possession of the Dagger.
Dragon Shield
Tommy was the first to use this as it came with his Green Ranger powers, though he could temporarily transfer the shield to other Rangers when needed.[1] After Tommy lost his powers as the Green Ranger, he gave his coin to Jason, which gave him more power than before using the Dragon Shield, and enabled the Rangers to control the Dragonzord using the Dragon Dagger weapon. Tommy then got his powers back a short time later.
As the primary user, Tommy has two golden forearm bands in addition to the shield, as well as the Dragon Dagger. When he temporarily transfers the shield to other Rangers, they gain the shield, and he keeps the arm bands and Dragon Dagger. When Jason temporarily took the Green Ranger powers and called for them, he received the shield, both arm bands, the Dragon Dagger, and a color change of his morpher from its normal gray hue to a gold tint.
It was once again given to Tommy when he returned to the position of the Green Ranger. It was also used by Zack in the Season 1 finale episode, "An Oyster Stew" in which he also received the arm bands. After Tommy lost his Green Ranger powers, he obtained a similar shield when he received the White Ranger powers. It was last seen in the Dino Thunder episode "Fighting Spirit".
During the filming of additional shots for the American Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series, the original shield prop wasn't transferred overseas with the rest of the costume. A poor replica was utilized, making new and original sentai footage easily distinguishable (see Notes for more info).
Other Weapons
Anti-Sonic Foam Gun
Alpha 5 created a blue device bearing the Triceratops symbol for Billy. Grumble Bee. Working as a kind of exterminator's gun, it fired foam all over Grumble Bee disrupting his sonic attacks and immobilizing him long enough to be defeated. Only used once by the Blue Ranger, it was never seen again. Before teleporting it to Billy, the blue prints for it could be seen in a book on the Command Center's control panel.
The RadBug ("Remote Activated Drivingzord for Basic Ultra Geomorphology"[2])was a Volkswagen Beetle capable of flight, built by Billy Cranston. It was used primarily during the time the Rangers were battling the Green Ranger Green with Evil, although it was built before then. It was used as Green Ranger had damaged their teleportation systems along with other Command Center functions. It can go from 0 to 3,000 mph in less than three seconds. Big Sisters They used it after the Rangers had discovered that the teleportation and communication systems in the Command Center were temporarily down. The Rangers also used it to find Rita's minions, who had snatched a little girl named Maria and forced her to release the Power Eggs.
Battle Bikes
The Battle Bikes[3]could be seen in the background while the four Rangers minus Kimberly fought Samurai Fan Man. Calamity Kimberly Since the Rangers were not shown teleporting after they left the Command Center, it can be assumed they drove the Bikes to their location. It would be the only appearance of the Bikes so they were never shown in use on screen. They were based off the Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops and Mastodon Zords for the Red, Blue and Black Rangers respectively. The Blue and Black Battle Bikes had side cars for the Pink and Yellow Rangers.

Dozens of messy pooches now have clean coats thanks to a charity dog wash in Charlottesville.
Volunteers helped wash the dogs, both big and small, for the Old Dominion Animal hospital's third annual dog wash.
They are raising money for the Companion Animal Fund (CAF), which is an organization that helps out animal rescue groups around Central Virginia.
Many of the local organizations don't get a lot of money for their services, so members of CAF hope to help.
"Most of them are very small and they do not have any kind of infrastructure for fundraising, outreach and funding," says Stefan Friedman, who is on the board of directors for CAF. "They come to us for money and we help them do their good works."
"So 100% of the proceeds go to the Companion Animal Fund," says Dr. Allison Kramer, with the Old Dominion Animal Hospital.
Nearly 75 dogs were washed this afternoon raising nearly $1,500 for CAF.

At Vada Spa, staff members devote their international training to beauty rituals that use natural and organic products from GM Collins and Pevonia Botanica. Two floors accommodate spacious mani-pedi bars, styling stations, and private, candle-lit treatment rooms that all swirl with activity until 9 p.m. every day. The owners of the Spa make sure that each service is administered by a true specialist––laser technicians only do laser procedures and aestheticians never hand over their facial duties to an assistant or nearby welder. "We're very particular about who we hire," one of the spa owners says. "It has to be someone who's experienced. We don't have anyone here who's just starting out or fresh out of school."
Since their mission is to be a one-stop destination for head-to-toe spa services, Vada's owners do their best to reserve hairstyling chairs and treatment rooms for walk-in customers. They also pride themselves on their expertise with the male aesthetic, offering a lineup of guy-specific spa services including back facials, shoulder waxing, and spare-tire rotations.
Roseann Wilson, owner of Fabric Rows Design House, fills her store with designer fabric from Waverly, Laura Ashley, and Ralph Lauren available at wholesale prices. After a lamp-design consultation ($45), store designers devise custom table or floor lamps from clients' vases, pottery, glassware, and spun sugar busts of Mary Tyler Moore. Lighting wizards can also update an antique or vintage lamp ($18), replace a broken socket ($18), or perform a complete rewiring ($26.99). In addition, clients may opt to have couches and chairs reupholstered with store fabric available by the yard or a velvet tracksuit torn from a defeated rival. Soft lighting brightens the intimate store space, and a gallery of past work adorns the walls for crafty customers to peruse for inspiration.
Culinary Connection curates handmade home goods and recycled sculptures. An Italian handmade Medici dinner plate with painted fleur-de-lis ($40) makes a bold statement while also making up for a chef's poor pronunciation of italian pastas. Sparkling home decor includes candles ($33–$329) and candle holders ($48–$78) and hand-blown glass decanters ($75 each), which can aerate an entire bottle of wine in two minutes. And on the purely aesthetic end, a one-of-a-kind Baby Longhorn yard stake ($29)—constructed out of recycled metal—adds orange hues to any yard, garden, or low-maintenance petting zoo.
An affordable and monumental selection of sofas, beds, desks, and sarcophagi mingle good-naturedly in Ashley Furniture's wondrous warehouse. A Conrad backless barstool ($48) commands shoppers' attention with its sleek, contemporary design, and Kira furnishings provide stylish sites for storage, studying, or snoozing. A Bulkman pub table with four chairs ($399), sofas, and barstools anticipate increasing the comfort of various human inactivities.
SampleHouse & CandleShop's shabby-chic interiors house a full bouquet of ornamental and scented candles, as well as an array of stylish and practical products such as handbags, ornaments, and soaps. Wide-eyed votive candles ($2.25–$3.75) tag along after sophisticated, glass- and metal-rimmed older siblings ($10–$55). Add flair to underground lairs with wax sticks from Trapp, Votivo, Archipelago, Orleans, Voluspa, and other brands, available in a variety of colors, shapes, and fragrances. Or opt for eye-catching jewelry ($5.95+) or initialed hand towels ($6.95+) to finally differentiate your towel from the family ghoul's.
Compiling the crew that leads Mesquite Aviation are owner Chip Harding and certified flight instructors Josh Sallee and Michael Bellm. Chip, a lifelong aviation enthusiast, underwent training with both Josh and Michael and loved it so much that he was driven to buy the flight school and place the pair of instructors at its helm. Located at Mesquite Metro Airport, which is comfortably outside the congested Dallas airspace, the experienced team continually add to their more than 3,000 hours of flight instruction. With a clean, well-kept fleet of Cessna 172s at their beck and call, they help future pilots achieve private pilot licensure and certification. They also offer tours for those seeking an aerial view of the Dallas area or attempting to find where they parked their car.

November 21, 2014
AUSTIN (August 15, 2014) Local jobless rates rose slightly in July for another month, according to figures that the Texas Workforce Commission released Friday that show the statewide rate remained steady at 5.1 percent
The Waco metro jobless rate rose to 5.8 percent in July, up from 5.6 in June, but lower than the 6.7 percent rate in July 2013.
The Killeen-Temple-Fort Hood rate rose to 6.4 percent in July, up from 6.2 percent in June, but lower than the 7.6 rate in July 2013.
Local rates are not seasonally adjusted.
Workforce Commission officials say the Texas economy showed steady growth in July, adding 46,600 seasonally-adjusted nonfarm jobs.
"Texas employers continue to propel the Texas economy's expansion by adding 396,200 jobs over the last year, a 3.5 percent annual growth rate," said Texas Workforce Commission Chairman Andres Alcantar.
"The Texas economic engine is strong, with every major industry posting positive annual growth in July."
The Midland area had the lowest unemployment rate in Texas last month at 2.9 percent.
The July jobless rate for neighboring Odessa was 3.6 percent.
The McAllen-Edinburg-Mission area had the highest statewide unemployment at 9.9 percent, according to TWC figures.

Hey there! Stand-In Copy Slave here!
Good news I work at Office Depot my fellow slaves and therefore my ENTIRE store works on Black Thursday at 5 pm! I read an entry with a small bit poking fun at our being open on Thanksgiving and let me just very quickly say we have computers, laptops, tablets, and printers all going on sale that night. We sell a little more than just printer ink my friends. ;) Now that my holiday bullshitting is over let's begin my tale of woe!
I was working on a lovely Saturday morning with one of my favorite co-workers, who we shall call Smartass-J. He is named so because he shares my dark sense of humor and is a wonderfully smart ass-y guy to one of our managers. He lovingly calls said manager his bitch. He is not involved in the story this time but possibly will be in the future so no nickname for him today!
Smartass-J and I were chatting on this slow morning and exchanging one-liners when this family of three walks in. The daughter is boasting some sweet crutches, brah! I had to whisper to SA-J how awesome they were. Why were they awesome? They were decked out with so many of my favorite things, rainbows, pillowpets, duct tape, let me just say for the record I'm not a girly girl. I am indeed an artist. Might draw something for you fellow slaves if the right inspiration strikes me. SA-J smirks at me and announces a bit too loud "Why are you laughing at a child in crutches?"
"I am not! I would never do such a thing!" He clearly didn't see the man who walked in with them standing on the other end of the copy counter looking up at a shipping sign within earshot of our conversation. We banter back and forth while he's insisting I am making fun and I explain very clearly that I love the art style and unique design of the crutches.
Fast forward to about thirty minutes later, I see them headed for the registers so I make my way over to ring them out. SA-J walks up to me and whispers that he is headed to the restroom. Fine whatever go pee.
So I start my customer script as usual, "So how are you this morning?"
"Oh it was going just fine until I heard someone was laughing at my daughter's crutches..."
I could feel the color drain out of my face and I just froze up. Him and the woman I assume to be his wife are glaring at me. It feels like they are advancing on me like a small pack of hyenas. I have never had a customer upset at me for something like this so I, being socially handicapped, am stuck stuttering and tripping over my words.
"Oh no sir my co-worker was trying to umm... See I would never laugh at anything like that. I was just ummm complimenting the design choices...." I'm really trying hard to not break apart in front of them but I am a crumbling mess.
"You just do your job." He snidely remarked at me.
"Sir I promise I wasn't making fun or laughing."
"Just do your job."
God now I'm in the bottom of this pit I can't call smooth talking SA-J over to help dig me out of since he's gone off to take a piss. Peachy keen. The father seems extremely overprotective making remarks like, "We won't let her bother us, huh?"
The assumed wife speaks up "You better be careful..."
I feel like she's about to tackle me over the register and bite my throat out! I finish them off and wish them a good day, SA-J now back at his post. "Hey Smartass-J! Did you know her FATHER heard every word you said and blamed it all on me?!"
Store's empty again I will chew him out like a rubber bone! He just started laughing and saying sorry and I'm about to start leaking down my face!
Before you ask, why yes this is my first retail job and I have only been working it for six months. Feels like forever. It's hard being the Store manager's favorite associate... Too much weight to be perfect man.
There will be more tales from the store soon enough! Might end up posting a vent about some higher ups who came in last week. Oh boy I don't feel anger but these guys. Wow. But that's a story for next time.
Black Friday(s) are almost upon us, my friends! Keep your heads cool and may the riots be nonexistent!

Tilting the Frame: Notes on an Alternative Education
If our aim is to become smart and savvy makers of sound and performance, what models can be adopted from other fields to encourage the development of new works, new ideas, and new musics hitherto unknown? How can we best support the newest generation of composers, performers, sound artists, and thinkers?
Unsung Heroes
There were plenty of capable and talented ladies involved with jazz from the beginnings of jazz history, but social expectations for the household matriarch did not include frequenting dance halls at night and touring around the country for weeks in a bus full of men. For some brave women, the attraction to this exciting new music was stronger than social barriers.
Challenging Tradition: Why Classical Musicians Should Learn Folk Music
Towards a More Visceral Living
I often feel that without a detailed study of our music we become lost but, even worse, with only a detailed study of our music we become boring. Embracing a more complicated visceral living through firsthand experiences and outside fields can lead us to unexpected ends. I hope we use our music to examine these living ideas, adding to our cultural knowledge along the way.
Skirts or Pants? How About Both
Three Strikes Against Success
In 1988, I arrived in the US ready to start a career as a jazz musician. So my boyfriend (now husband for over 20 years) Peter Kienle and I formed a fusion group with a bassist and drummer from the University of Alabama where I was completing a master's degree. But one day during rehearsals, I noticed that the bassist didn't address his questions about my charts to me, but rather to Peter.
Music for Difficult Days
Rethinking How We Teach Composition, Part 2
We still have a long way to go in terms of shifting the model of what a composition teacher can provide. First, we must address the master/apprentice mentality. I propose we to do this by continuing to allow more inquisitive learning to take place alongside modeling. Secondly, we desperately need to openly and pragmatically identify the inherent challenges of gender in composition.
