Year: 2013
Country: BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA, QATAR, GERMANY
Run Time: 75 minutes
Kym Vercoe travels from Sydney to Sarajevo one summer. Pleased to be touring the Balkans independently, she creates a chatty video journal. A favorite place is Višegrad in Bosnia, where she enjoys the 16th century Ottoman bridge across the Drina River. But at the lovely Vilina Vlas spa resort, she spends an inexplicably restless night. Back in Sydney, she discovers to her horror that, during the Bosnian War of the 90s, Višegrad was the site of a notorious Serbian campaign of ethnic cleansing. Into the beautiful Drina were dumped many bodies of Bosniak men, women, and children. Hundreds of women were raped and killed in the very hotel where Kym spent her sleepless night. Unable to shake off these images, Kym returns to Višegrad. As she moves around seeking ghosts from the past, she feels increasingly oppressed by the town's living inhabitants. FOR THOSE WHO CAN TELL NO TALES is for all the Višegrad women who suffered and died. (In English and Bosnian with subtitles) —B.B.

Leeks Vinaigrette
Leek tops should be dark green and fresh, not limp or dried out. The bulb ends should have fringes of small crisp-looking roots still attached; avoid split or soft bulbs, or those with large blemishes.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
Source: Everyday Food, April 2006
- 6 medium leeks (about 2 1/4 pounds)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon grainy mustard
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons white-wine vinegar
- Salt and pepper
Trim tough, dark greens from leeks; discard. Halve leeks lengthwise, and cut off root ends, leaving as much of bulb intact as possible. Rinse each half under running water, carefully separating layers to loosen dirt.
Place a steamer basket over a saucepan filled with water; simmer. Prepare a large bowl of ice water.
Place leeks in steamer basket, cover and steam, until very tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to bowl of ice water to cool; drain. Dry on paper towels, cut side down, patting gently.
In a small bowl, whisk oil, mustards, and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Arrange leeks on a platter; spoon vinaigrette over top.

I am trying automate the same with a Python script. I am using subProcess.Popen to start the .exe and then I need to execute other commands. I have posted below the sudo code:
process = subprocess.Popen(filename.exe, shell=True, stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
process.communicate(arg)I also tried with
But I am not able to get desired result. I tried with creating batch file and then running it form Python but no luck there too. It just starts the exe and then closes it.
Can any one help me in solving this issue. I have just started with Python scripting so please help me out.

Lucy's Tamale Factory
The windows of the tiny, tucked-away Lucy's Tamale Factory remain perpetually fogged. Inside, Lucy and her staff of cooks dart from stovetop to stovetop, steaming massive pots of traditional Mexican tamales—fluffy, authentic cornmeal street fare filled with chicken, pork, or jalapeño. The cooks mix masa and shred meats to craft the treats, winners of numerous awards across the U.S., which emulate the tamales Lucy's family has made for generations in Durango, Mexico. Their hard work has paid off; their classic handheld delights with no preservatives have earned accolades from festivals and fares across the US. Patrons bustle in and out of their shop to order the tamales individually or by the dozen for special events such as large parties or events where people are required to construct their own hats out of cornhusks.
91% of 129 customers recommend
"Great for to-go or catering orders."
"Yummy! Great deal! And you can stop in any time to pick up your favorite flavor tamale for just 3$. It's fast easy, and ready to pick up any time!"
"Delicious, fresh, and hot, with all the fixings for a great home cooked meal. Ready at the time you specify. Love Lucy's Tamales."

Sesame Dill Fish Recipe
4.5 4
Crispy fillets are a snap to make. A grocery store special on fish motivated me to adapt a recipe for pork into this quick-cooking dish. —Linda Hess, Chilliwack, British Columbia
- 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup plain yogurt
- 1 pound catfish or other whitefish fillets
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- Lemon wedges, optional
- In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, sesame seeds, dill and salt. Place yogurt in another bowl. Dip fillets in yogurt; shake off excess, then dip in crumb mixture.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet. Fry fillets over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with lemon if desired. Yield: 4 servings.

04 February 2011
Helsingin yliopisto (University of Helsinki)
This week, the highly-respected US Academy of Sciences journal (PNAS) published an article describing how the first line of defence of the human immune system distinguishes between microbes and the body's own structures. The basis of this recognition mechanism has been unclear since the key protein components were discovered over 30 years ago – and has now finally been cracked by a collaboration between high-level research groups at the University of Helsinki, Finland. When a microbe has infected us, the first defence mechanism that attacks it is a protein-based marking and destruction system called complement. It usually suffices that foreign targets are marked as enemy while our own targets are left untouched, so that white blood cells attack only foreign targets like bacteria, viruses and parasites.
Researchers at the Haartman Institute and the Institute of Biotechnology at the University of Helsinki have, as a result of years of dedicated work, been able to show how complement distinguishes foreign structures from our own structures – all days before antibodies have a chance to develop. The key to unlocking the problem was when the groups of Sakari Jokiranta and Adrian Goldman in Helsinki, along with David Isenman's group in Canada, were able to solve the structure of two components of the system at atomic resolution. The structure revealed a stunning unexpected arrangement: factor H bound two of the C3bs, which mark foreign targets, in two different ways. Laboratory tests showed that this actually happened: to recognise our own cells, factor H binds not only C3b but also the cell surface at the same. Thus, the system mark only foreign structures for destruction by the white blood cells.
This new understanding of how host and foreign structures are distinguished by the front-line defence mechanism also explains how the severe and often fatal form of disease "Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome" (HUS) starts. This rare disease often occurs in children and can be caused by genetic defects in factor H or in C3b, or else by the disruption of factor H activity by antibodies. In Finland, too, some of these patients have had to have complete liver-kidney transplants because of the severity of the disease. Consequently, the research's surprising and wide-reaching result will be important not only in terms of advancing basic immunological research but also in the diagnosis and treatment of very sick children.

Literature Against Philosophy, Plato to Derrida: A Defense of Poetry
Literature Against Philosophy, Plato to Derrida: A Defense of Poetry, by Mark Edmundson; 239 pp. New York: Cambridge University Press, 1995, $59.95 cloth, $17.95 paper.
In this age of suspicion, it is refreshing to meet a believer like Mark Edmundson, someone merging "versions of freedom and fate" (p. 235). To many, such an accommodation is automatically suspect; to many, a voice as sweet and civil as his is enough to make the molars ache. Not that Edmundson always makes believing look easy, but he dances rather gracefully with the "descendental" (p. 236) as he sings a late-millennial tribute to "the poems we love" (p. 237). His analysis of sophisticated doubters is impressive for its respectful tone. Edmundson models how a traditional literary intellectual uses, rather than bests, not only what important philosophers promise, but also what literature delivers.
Edmundson's discussion begins with Plato's dismissal of literature as "a harmful diversion" (p. 7). This establishes the classical sources of philosophy's antipathy to literature's "pleasure and vitality" (p. 237) and sets the tone for an analysis of "descendentalism," the various modern and postmodern searches for "ultimate truths" in "the bedrock" of experience (p. 22).
To Edmundson's mind, Freud's general hypothesis that there are analyzable forces in the unconscious legitimizes various contemporary attempts to subordinate literature to philosophy. For example, de Man's metaphor of blindness and insight follows Freud as "a figure for [the] dramatic irony . . . that arises when speakers say more than they know, and . . . where the surplus of meaning is taken in by some third party" (p. 42).
Power issues are in the foreground as the critic becomes an analyst/interpreter of meanings that would otherwise be latent or repressed (p. 43). As Edmundson shows, de Man can transform symbol and allegory into instances of repression, tropes "that record . . . how they will be misunderstood . . ." (p. 49). Such pre-Derridean insights still allow de Man to offer an approximate defense of highly allegorical texts that "proffer images for their own correct deconstruction" (p. 49). Only these, finally, are "worthy of being called literature" (p. 49).
In short, "de Man succeeded in transferring the Freudian model of repression from the sphere of analytic therapy to that of rhetorical analysis" (p. 53) thus initiating "a self-perpetuating order" (p. 55). Does Edmundson decry such orders? Generally, yes, but gently. One of the strengths of this book is Edmundson's desire not to compete with his subjects; predominantly, he avoids for himself the authoritarian positions he suspects, choosing instead to stir up the "trouble between poets and philosophers . . . that keeps them in productive dialogue and competition" (p. 63).
Derrida's chief role in this competition, his polemic against presence, and "his proffered alternative" (p. 79), différance, remind Edmundson of de Man's analysis of repression. "Derrida seems to think," Edmundson writes, that "the texts of Western metaphysics surrender their secret holdings when one simply listens . . ." (p. 80). Like Freud and de Man, then, Derrida is out to unlock what is repressed: "we might think of différance as . . . a name for those powers that Derrida's deconstruction strives to release" (p. 81).
For Edmundson, however, Derrida's chief insight -- that "philosophy is a tissue of words, manifold [not unified] in their associations"--contradicts philosophy's self-described superiority to and dominance over literature (p. 84). For if both literature and philosophy are merely made of words, "how," Edmundson asks, "can philosophy conceivably function as a stable template to discipline and delimit literary range, to disenfranchise poetry" (p. 84)? Walking this tightrope, Derrida dramatizes "the struggle between poetry and philosophy . . . [on] a level of extraordinary and unprecedented refinement" (p. 84). Edmundson's purpose -- as it was with de Man -- is not to debunk Derrida, but to redescribe him: no longer metaphysics' "fearsome terminator," he is a philosopher "within" this tradition (p. 96). Because Derrida continues Freud's idea of authority, his analyses are "disturbingly mistake-proof," risking little themselves but asking of literature great sacrifices of "vital force" (p. 112).
Edmundson then takes on historicism...

Baby hates car rides - tips and tricks?
No real advice since I feel like I've tried everything: toys, music, lights, adjusting straps, ..nothing.
Hopefully they will just outgrow it!
Mommy to 1 little girl, 2 boys, 3 angel babies
I have nothing witty or clever to put here, but at least it looks pretty...
Store trips r 10-20 mins long.
But ur not alone. And the thing is, my 1st born LOVED car rides as a baby.
Good luck!
My first hated his seat until we moved him to a rear facing convertable seat. Then he stopped hating it as much.

Babies don't like riding backwards and away from mommy. It's terrible but it will get better when they get older...my ODD was like that until I turned her at 2 years. This DD, 10 mos, still hates it but I installed a DVD player where she could see it and it helps for a little while.

The party in charge in Washington is doing a horrible job.
But can Republicans do any better?
To say that the Democrats are "drunk with power" or "out of touch" is inadequate. Something on the order of "clueless" or "oblivious" or "tone-deaf" would be more accurate.
But simply to have the Democrats tripping over their own kingly and queenly arrogance and their incompetence, is not enough to create success for the Republican Party. Republicans - in Congress, running for Congress, and elsewhere - need a cohesive message that signals a competent, respectful, "American" styled government leadership alternative. Can the Republican Party produce this kind of message?
Let's start by examining just how bad things are with the Democrats. The President that put together the bi-partisan economic advisory dream-team has a moderate, Clinton-era, reasonable appearing member in Larry Summers. But where is former Reagan economic advisor Paul Volcker? He's neither seen nor heard. And despite Summers' occasional media appearances, Obama's economic policies look nothing like either the Reagan era or the Clinton era.
Instead, we got an $800 billion economic "stimlus" bill that funded, among other things, "free" tatoo removal, cricket control, the promotion of astronomy in the Hawaiian islands, a federal sex education program called "Booty Call," and other non-economically simulative pet projects. The so-called "shovel ready" infrastructure construction projects that were promised have yet to materialize, consumer spending is declining again, and unemployment benefits claims are rising.
Then there was President Obama's $3.5 trillion budget (Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner is now asking Congress to raise the federal debt ceiling above $12 trillion for fear that there won't be money to fund Obama's budget after October of this year); the so-called "cap-and-trade" energy tax bill that Congressional Democrats themselves scuttled because of outrage from constituents; President Obama's "firing" of GM's C.E.O. and his take-over of GM and Chrysler; and the $3 billion plus "cash for clunkers" program that was supposed to get people out of fuel guzzling old cars and into energy efficient new cars, but now is known to have been used for purchases of luxury sedans and SUV's.

Imagine having a table big enough to seat the entire family - all three generations! This family had such a great time at our Graybarn Cottage that they shared this photo with us. The Mill House Team prepared them an amazing dinner with Choice Cut Filets grilled on the BBQ by J. Stuart's Seafood Market supplied Lobster Dinners, Fresh Corn and local Red Potatoes. There were fresh Asparagus from Balsam Farm - grilled with just a little olive oil, salt & pepper. Desert was pie ala mode - Cherry Pie from Blue Duck Bakery and Apple Pie from Montauk Bake Shoppe topped off with Vanilla Ice Cream from Joe & Liza's in Sag Harbor. Just like home!!!
water | weekend warriorsBy J Silhan / in Blog, East End Activities, Sports / July 19, 2013 | Comments are off for this post
We all need water.
Water to drink, bath, and wash with, but I need different water.
Water to swim in, dive under, ride on, fish in, surf on, and kayak in.I do not always have the time to pack all of my gear for water sports so I have Weekend Warrior Tours set up my kayaking and Stand Up paddle boarding. They also make it very easy for me to invite friends and family from out of town. I love the feeling when you pull up to the launch site and all of the yaks are ready to go. Maybe I like the idea we can leave right away, maybe because I see the packed lunches and coolers, or maybe its because I know I do not have to clean up or pack when we get back…
evening in sag harbor | comedy | cuddyBy Courtney Silhan / in Blog, East End Activities, Entertainment, F&B, Restaurants / July 19, 2013 | Comments are off for this postBay Street Theater had an amazing comedy series this summer. A few big names, topping the list of comedians that my husband had to see were Ralphie May and Jim Breuer. We missed Ralphie but we were able to get a babysitter for the Jim Breuer show. Jim kept us in stiches the entire night. The theater is so small and intimate that the nose bleed section is only 100 feet from the stage. The only bad seats in the theater are the ones where you walk by Jim Breuer like a cowboy and he can't resist but to add you into his act.
Cuddy was on the menu as a new restaurant in Sag Harbor that we had to try.
It is in located in the space next to Sen. It is a Bar & Grill Gastro pub; we had mussels and Quail for appetizers. The Tilefish was fresh from Montauk and it was cooked just perfect with golden beets and a sauce of creamed deviled eggs. J had The Cuddy Burger, house ground beef, and house cured bacon and a fried egg to finish it off. The burger just melted in your mouth. An amazing date night in Sag Harbor the goes to prove that even with last minute notice there's always something to do on the east end..
cookbooks | print | local | digital | hybrid & why they are all indispensable!By GE Muller / in Blog, F&B, home / July 16, 2013 | Comments are off for this post
We just released our new Summer Menu at the Mill House and that means it's time to research the Autumn~Winter edition. My usual method, take several dozen cook books, scatter them about our dining room table. For the next few weeks I will read, take paperless notes & pictures with Evernote. I am now able to digitally search the contents of my cook book library, 1,000 books some 40 years old, with Eat Your Books! My iPad heats up as I scan the websites of Saveur Edible Epicurious Food & Wine then I look at my RSS feeds from Eater Thrillist Food Arts Zagats & Katie all neatly tucked into Feedly! I always find a few new cookbooks whether online at Jessica's Biscuit or Kitchen Arts & Letters, then on to the village bookstores Book Hampton Harpers Books & Glenn Horowitz Bookseller!
So print still matters, more important than ever,
look at what Kaitlyn Goalen has to say at Eatocracy maybe buy something real cool the Short Stacked Editions! Then look at how publishing is changing from Seth Godin at his newest venture The Domino Project! I Vividly remember working at the NYC Library looking through microfiche back in the 80's!
So the art of gathering food & beverage intelligence has never been better. A virtual carousel of old and new, print, local, digital & hybrid. All indispensable media dramatically creating a new metric. Stunning paper, wonderful book stores, online availability of everything and the wizard of technology! Maybe I will write that cookbook…

''Everybody, be cool, this is a robbery!''->'''Honey Bunny:''' Any of you ''fucking'' pricks ''move'', and I'll execute every mother''fucking'' last one of you!''Pulp Fiction'' is a 1994 crime drama told in the Creator/QuentinTarantino [[SignatureStyle trademark]] [[AnachronicOrder nonlinear fashion.]] It covers three stories, all interconnected.The first is about two hitmen, Jules Winnfield (Creator/SamuelLJackson) and Vincent Vega (Creator/JohnTravolta), who are out to retrieve a briefcase stolen from their employer, Marsellus Wallace (Creator/VingRhames). This leads into two subplots, one about Vincent being ordered to also take Marsellus's wife Mia Wallace (Creator/UmaThurman) out for a night on the town while Wallace is out of town doing business, and another about Jules and Vincent accidentally [[IJustShotMarvinInTheFace shooting a guy named Marvin in the face]] and trying to clean it up.The second is about an aging boxer named Butch Coolidge (Creator/BruceWillis) who is paid by Wallace to throw a fight. Instead, Butch bets on himself and wins ([[CasualtyInTheRing the other boxer drops dead of a heart attack during the fight in the process]]), making swift plans to leave the country straight after. But before he can do this, he has to recover a certain gold watch that belonged to his father, which promptly leads into the weirdest day of his life, involving Marsellus, Vincent, and a pair of seriously nasty hillbillies.The third story, which bookends the film, is about a pair of robbers called Pumpkin and Honey Bunny (Creator/TimRoth and Amanda Plummer) who spontaneously hold up a restaurant ...a restaurant that Jules and Vincent are eating in.Known for its rich, eclectic, pop-culture-laden dialogue, and mix of humor and over-the-top violence, ''Pulp Fiction'' is known as one of the best, most iconic films to come out of TheNineties. Also somewhat infamous for the controversy over proper writing credits. The Gold Watch chapter originated as an original script by Creator/RogerAvary. Tarantino bought the script with the intention of adapting it, as one would do a novel. In the final credits, Avary is given a "story by" listing.Not to be confused with actual Pulp Fiction as a genre (which was what influenced the film), which is found under PulpMagazine.----!!Tropes, muthafucka! Do you list them?!:* AdultFear: Drug overdose. Or on the flip-side, getting sub-par medical treatment that could easily kill you with a single slip.* AffablyEvil:** Jules and Vince.** Winston Wolf, a dapper, elegant gentleman with excellent manners who will dispose of dead bodies to "solve problems " -- possibly the nicest thing he does for a living.* AfroAsskicker: Jheri Curl flavor.* AlliterativeName: ** Vincent Vega, continuing the legacy of [[Film/ReservoirDogs Vic Vega]].** Also, Winston Wolf.* AllThereInTheManual: According to the script, the briefcase contained diamonds. Tarantino felt this was too similar to the plot of ''Film/ReservoirDogs'', and left it ambiguous.* AloneWithThePsycho: Butch and Marsellus awaken BoundAndGagged in the pawnshop's basement, being at the mercy of deranged Zed and the Gimp.* AnachronicOrder: Creator/QuentinTarantino's trademark style of storytelling. Here's how the film would play in chronological order:##Prelude to "The Gold Watch" (Captain Koons talks to young Butch)##Prelude to "The Bonnie Situation" (Jules and Vince discuss Europe and foot massages, then kill Brett and retrieve the case)##"The Bonnie Situation"##Prologue—The Diner (Pumpkin and Honey-Bunny discuss the robbery)##Epilogue—The Diner (standoff between the robbers and Jules/Vince)##Prelude to "Vincent Vega and Marsellus Wallace's Wife" (Marsellus instructs Butch to throw the fight and Butch has a minor confrontation with Vince)##"Vincent Vega and Marsellus Wallace's Wife"##Prelude to "The Gold Watch" (Butch and his Portuguese girlfriend talk about pot bellies)##"The Gold Watch". * AnAesop: Redemption. Jules is a sadistic murderer, but he redeems himself by sparing the robbers and resolving to live a more spiritual life. Butch breaks his word and kills a man by accident, but he redeems himself by living up to the example of "the gold watch" and refusing to leave Marsellus at the rapists' mercy. Both get happy endings. Vincent, who scoffs at Jules' redemption, does not change his ways and does not get a happy ending. * AndStarring: Bruce Willis gets the "and" credit, as the poster displays. He was the biggest star at the time and took a pay cut to appear in the film.* AntiHero: ** Butch, Pragmatic Anti-Hero** Vincent & Jules are {{Villain Protagonist}}s or Nominal Heroes, but Jules acquires shades of a Disney or Pragmatic near the end.* AsHimself: Kathy Griffin is cast as herself. She's the red-haired woman who witnesses the crash Butch and Marsellus are involved in.* ArtisticLicenseGunSafety:** Vincent [[IJustShotMarvinInTheFace shooting Marvin in the face]] is an example of "don't point guns at things you don't want dead" and "keep your finger off the trigger".** Marcellus Wallace is guilty as well, leaving a loaded gun unattended while he steps out to get breakfast while Vincent is waiting for an assassination target, resulting in said target returning, finding the unattended gun, and realizing someone's in the apartment quickly enough to use said gun on said someone.* ArtisticLicenseMedicine: In reality, Mia almost certainly would have died unless 911 was called. The epinephrine may have restarted her stopped heart, but it would do nothing about the heroin still in her system. She'd probably be tachycardic from the epi. Plus that's not how heroin affects the body when inhaled.* AsTheGoodBookSays: Jules Winnfield is fond of quoting what he claims is Ezekiel 25:17 [[PreMortemOneLiner before executing someone]]. He explains to one character, he "always thought it was some cold blooded shit to say to a motherfucker before I popped a cap in his ass," but then he started to think seriously about what it means. The speech is actually lifted almost directly from a BadassBoast in the Creator/SonnyChiba film ''Karate Kiba'', with only the final lines, "And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger [...] And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee," actually taken from the aforementioned passage.* AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: ** Esmarelda Villalobos. Colombia is the world's leading source of emeralds. Her name is misspelling of ''"Esmeralda,"''the Spanish word for emerald. However, there's always the possibility that her name was misspelled InUniverse.** Pumpkin tries to get a waiter to freshen his drink by calling "Garcon! Coffee!". The waitress tells him that garcon means "boy." * AsianStoreOwner: The opening conversation includes a lament about how this trope has made knocking over convenience stores nearly impossible; as Pumpkin explains, the small business owners are all either Jewish or Asian. In the former case, the business has been in the family for "fifteen fucking generations," so naturally they're going to be rather defensive when some jerk with a gun comes in. In the latter, they're scared by the gun, but they don't speak English well enough to understand "open the register."* AssShove: Described as happening twice during Captain Koons' "your father's watch" speech.* TheAtoner: ** While Butch claims not to care about killing his opponent, he mutters, "Sorry, Floyd," to the air when he hears the news. His compulsion to save Marsellus may be connected.** While we don't see it, it seems Jules is starting down this path. -->"The truth is, you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo, I'm tryin' real hard to be the shepherd."* AudibleSharpness: The katana.* AuthorAppeal: Mia goes barefoot in at least two of her scenes, and foot massages come up in conversation twice. Esmarelda drives her cab barefoot, as well. Tarantino's foot fetish is well known at this point.* {{Badass}}: Jules, Butch, Marsellus Wallace.* BadassBack: Butch killing Maynard. After wounding him with a DiagonalCut he then moves on Zed and casually shoves [[KatanasAreJustBetter his katana]] backwards into Maynard's stomach. * BaldBlackLeaderGuy: Marsellus Wallace, clearly. * BeamMeUpScotty: InUniverse, Jules has taken some serious artistic license in adapting [[AsTheGoodBookSays Ezekiel 25:17]] into a BadassCreed.* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Averted with Mia's overdose. * BerserkButton: Vincent gets really pissy and defensive when people keep pointing out his incompetence, especially Jules after he shoots Marvin in the face by accident. * BigBad: Marsellus Wallace. Most of the time at least. This trope gets taken to some really crazy places...* BlackAndGrayMorality: Just about everyone in the film is morally dubious at best, but only Maynard and Zed are actually treated as villains.* BlackComedy: Extreme violence and crime are often treated humorously in the film.* BlackComedyRape: Marsellus's reaction to the Gimp, and his off-screen screaming [[SoundtrackDissonance while jazzy music plays]] are both played for laughs. * BlahBlahBlah: When Honey Bunny and Pumpkin talk about quitting robbing.-->'''Honey Bunny''': [very affectionately] You sound like a duck. Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack.* BloodyHilarious: "Ah, man, [[IJustShotMarvinInTheFace I shot Marvin in the face.]]" "''Why the fuck'd you do that?!''"* BlownAcrossTheRoom: One version of the script lovingly describes Vince Vega being catapulted through the bathroom door and crashing through the glass shower screen after Butch shoots him. However, probably due to the difficulty of shooting such a scene in a cramped bathroom, this was toned down in the film itself to Vincent merely stumbling backward into the shower from shock.* BookEnds:** The film begins and ends at the diner, but from different POV's.** The Ezekiel Bible verse is used early on in the film, but by the end it takes on a different meaning.* {{Bowdlerise}}:** The broadcast version of the film goes to ''extreme'' measures to eliminate the existence of the character of The Gimp.** The broadcast version changes Jules's line to Brett and Roger into "English, ''little sucker'', do you speak it?" -- probably one of the few cases where it would have been better for the censors to just cut out that word entirely.** Sometimes, the censorship isn't quite so bad, and in one case it preserves the meaning of one line (which involved self-naming rhyming slang or whatever it's called):-->'''Jules''': My name's Pitt, and your ass ain't talkin' your way out of it.* BoundAndGagged: Butch and Marsellus get bound and gagged in the pawn shop scene -- the intention is to rape them and do them in, most likely.* BreakUpMakeUpScenario: When Butch yells at Fabienne for forgetting his father's watch, to the point of making her cry. Next time he sees her, he gives her his first genuine apology.* BrickJoke:** Does Marsellus Wallace look like a bitch? [[spoiler: He does now. Though he [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon certainly makes who did it to him pay]].]]--> '''Jules:''' And Marsellus Wallace don't like to be fucked by anybody except Mrs. Wallace.** In ''The Bonnie Situation'', Jules tries to (unsuccessfully) placate Jimmy by over-complimenting him on how good his coffee tastes. Later on Jimmy makes a cup for Winston Wolf who, upon tasting it, smiles and raises the mug slightly in approval. Evidently, the high quality of the coffee was no lie.** On their way to interrogate Brett, Vincent tells Jules that the Quarter Pounder is called a "Royale with Cheese" in Paris. Jules later mentions this to Brett when they arrive at his apartment finding him having a hamburger meal.** A subtle one, but in the intro in the diner, Honey Bunny suggests that "you could cut down on the hero factor" by robbing a restaurant. Fast forward to the end of the film during that same incident, when Jules pulls his gun and intervenes.* BumblingSidekick: Vincent to Jules. [[spoiler: Notably, Vincent's incompetence gets him killed barely a day or two after Jules retires.]]* CallingYourBathroomBreaks: One of Vincent's more... endearing qualities.* TheCameo: Steve Buscemi as the Buddy Holly waiter.* CampingACrapper: [[spoiler:Vincent meets his end seconds after leaving Butch's bathroom.]]* CasualtyInTheRing: Butch was supposed to take a dive in the 5th round of his fight. His opponent, on the other hand, had a heart attack and died before that could happen. Cue Butch scrambling to save his ass.* CatapultNightmare: Butch is seen waking up and flipping himself up twice. The first isn't strictly a nightmare (he was apparently dreaming about his father's watch and its backstory), while the second isn't shown.* CavalierConsumption: While Jules and Vincent are putting on a hit. Man, Big Kahuna Burgers are ''tasty''.* CentralTheme: Redemption - each of the segments features characters receiving (perhaps undeserved) second chances. * ChainsawGood: Referenced, then averted: Butch considers a chainsaw when choosing his weapon for taking down the pawn shop rapists (he also sees and discards a [[DropTheHammer carpenter's hammer]] and a [[BatterUp baseball bat]] before spotting the {{katana|sAreJustBetter}}.) * ChanceMeetingBetweenAntagonists: ** When Vincent Vega is caught unexpectedly by Butch. Vega was waiting in Butch's apartment to kill him, but has to use the bathroom. By chance, Butch shows up at that exact moment to find his gold watch. He decides to have a quick snack... and notices Vega's submachine gun lying on the counter. Cue toilet flush, Vega walking out, both men being startled... (WordOfGod states that the SMG was actually Marsellus's. Vince took his gun with him to the toilet, but Butch was quicker on the draw.) ** The scene where Butch is waiting at a stoplight. Who should cross the street at that exact moment but Marsellus Wallace, the man who put the hit out on him. * CleanupCrew: Creator/HarveyKeitel plays the genteel Winston Wolf. Wolf takes charge and "solves problems," including corpse disposal. * ClicheStorm: In-universe: the ''[[AddedAlliterativeAppeal Fox Force Five]]'' pilot described by Mia Wallace. From what she says, it appears to be a very generic and cheesy [[FiveManBand Five-Girl Band]] series that wasn't picked up for a good reason.* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Butch's girlfriend Fabienne has shades of being weird with the things she talks about. She wants to have a pot belly because she thinks it's attractive for women to have one and she's really into blueberry stuff for breakfast. A common theory is that she's actually pregnant, with the pot belly comment being a subtle hint-dropping and the blueberry-heavy breakfast being WackyCravings.* ClusterFBomb: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnDkruJ9V5M And fucking how, you fucking motherfucker pissant piece of motherfucking fuckshit]]. On many TV broadcasts, there's at least one scene where instead of blocking out individual words, the audio just gives out entirely.* ColdBloodedTorture: What's going to be happening to Zed. With pliers and a blowtorch.--> '''Marsellus''': You hear me talkin', hillbilly boy? [[ItHasOnlyJustBegun I ain't through with you by a damn sight!]] [[ToThePain I'm-a get medieval on your ass.]]* ConscienceMakesYouGoBack: Butch going back to save Marsellus after escaping The Gimp* ContrivedCoincidence: Marsellus just happens to be crossing the road when Butch is waiting at a red light. * CoolCar: Vincent's Malibu, Winston Wolf's Acura NSX[[labelnote:note]]The car is known as the Honda NSX in many countries. Acura is a premium brand Honda uses in some territories[[/labelnote]]* CreatorCameo: Creator/QuentinTarantino plays Jimmie. * CreditsGag:** The manager is credited as "Coffee Shop" because when he's about to say "I'm a coffee shop manager" to Pumpkin he was cut off.** Producer Lawrence Bender is "Long Haired Yuppie-Scum"** Emil Sitka is "Hold Hands, You Love Birds!", his "line" in the Three Stooges short Lance was watching.** The bartender's actual name in the script is English Bob (referenced by Jules in the diner scene). But his "My name is Paul and this is between y'all" line was so awesome that he's credited as "Paul" instead.* CultSoundtrack: The soundtrack of this album was a huge bestseller, as it brought a lot of SurfRock back into prominence, including "Misirlou" by Music/DickDale and his Del-Tones, from ''Music/SurfersChoice''.* DeconstructiveParody: Of crime thrillers. Even feared crime lord Marsellus Wallace makes stupid mistakes. If you pay attention, you'll notice that Vince is constantly incompetent, gets indignant at the merest chastening for his incompetence and is probably riding Jules' coattails in the gangster business. This is all masked by his genre-standard charisma.* DecoyProtagonist: Pumpkin and Honey Bunny are the first two people we see. They're a loving couple who suddenly plan to pull an impromptu robbery and reveal themselves to be fairly ruthless criminals. After the credits roll, we switch to two completely different characters in their own unrelated conversation, revealing the film to be an ensemble piece. * DepravedHomosexual: Zed and his buddies who take Butch and Marsellus captive and intend to rape them. Butch was luckier than Marsellus because he was supposed to be the second...* DestinationDefenestration: {{Discussed}}. Marsellus threw Tony Rocky Horror out a four-story building for unknown reasons.* DiesWideOpen: [[spoiler: Vincent]]* DirtyCop: Zed. * DisproportionateRetribution: ** A case rumoured but untrue--Marsellus didn't throw Tony Rocky Horror out a window because he massaged his wife's feet.** The conversation about Vince's Malibu getting keyed has him and his dealer buddy fantasizing about dealing some of this trope out to the offender.--->"No judge, no jury - straight to the executioner."* DoubleTake: Marsellus, when he spotted Butch escaping. Complete with a PrecisionFStrike which, if you consider [[ClusterFBomb the movie]], is improbably precise.-->'''Marsellus''': ... motherfucker.* DramaticGunCock:** During the final confrontation, it's played straight when Pumpkin is telling Jules to put his wallet in the trash bag, and he cocks his gun to show that he's serious.** Inverted by Jules in the final confrontation; after holding Pumpkin at gunpoint for a speech about how he's changing his ways, Jules uncocks his gun, letting Pumpkin walk away.** Played straight when Marsellus rises up from behind Butch holding Maynard's shotgun and cocks it loudly in slow-motion, before shooting Zed in the groin.* DrivesLikeCrazy:** Winston Wolf doesn't treat speed limits with an awful lot of respect.** Vincent doesn't treat his car very well when he's panicking over Mia's overdose. * DrivingADesk: Tarantino chose what looks like a 1940s black-and-white street background for the scene where Esmerelda drives Butch away from the fight. Most likely, it's intended as an homage to the kind of 1940s pulp noir films that ''Pulp Fiction'' is named in honour of and evokes.* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler: Vincent. After being the central character of the previous story, he comes out of the bathroom and [[CampingACrapper gets shot by Butch]] before he can even say or do anything.]] * DrugsAreBad: Mia nearly dies from an overdose, and the off-the-grid [[WorstAid "medical treatment"]] she receives is rather disturbing.* EarnYourHappyEnding: Not only does Butch recover his father's watch ''and'' survive battles with four individual enemies, he slaughters two of those enemies and makes peace with a third. Not a bad day's work. * EnemyEatsYourLunch: In one of the most iconic uses of this trope, Jules slow-plays his intimidation of Brett by very politely asking for a bite of his burger and then slurping down the rest of his soda. Once he's finished, things become more overtly nasty.* EnemyMine: When Butch goes back to rescue Marsellus Wallace.* EnsembleCast: There's no real central character, and each of the major characters gets at least a scene in the spotlight.* EpicFail: The guy who empties a HandCannon revolver at Vince and Jules and hits nothing, despite being at point-blank range and having the element of surprise. * EqualOpportunityEvil: Marsellus runs a pretty diverse group for an organized crime outfit. It's especially odd, considering Vince is the brother of [[Film/ReservoirDogs a guy working for a more typical Mafia group]] [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain whose leader makes a few rather unfortunate remarks about blacks]].* EvenEvilHasStandards: When Butch saves Marsellus instead of leaving him to be raped to death by Maynard and Zed, Marsellus forgives Butch (despite the fact Marsellus is then holding a shotgun) and agrees that in exchange for taking the story of him being raped to the grave and leaving town, he will not retaliate.* ExactWords: When he wakes up Marsellus and Butch, Maynard tells them "No one kills anyone in my place of business, except me or Zed." [[spoiler:That's exactly what happens.]]* FamousLastWords:** "[[BigNo NOOOOOOOOOOO!!]]" [[spoiler: Brett]]** "Man, I don't even have an opinion." [[spoiler: Marvin]]* FanDisservice: ** The rape scene.** The scene where Mia's shirt is wide open could have been quite sexy, if it hadn't been for the fact that she's [[spoiler: dying from an overdose, covered in blood]] and is about to have [[spoiler: a huge syringe plunged straight into her heart]].* FateWorseThanDeath: What Marsellus has planned for Zed. * FauxAffablyEvil: Jules when he and Vincent show up at Brett's apartment. Jules comes in, acts civil and friendly, and even politely asks Brett if he can [[EnemyEatsYourLunch take a bite of his burger and a drink of his Sprite.]] Of course, throughout the entire discussion, everyone present knows that Jules and Vincent are hitmen who, at best, are here to recover the glowy thingy in the briefcase, and at worst, are here to kill them, so Jules' act of civil politeness just serves to ratchet up the tension, until Jules finally dispenses with the whole thing and breaks Brett's concentration by shooting his buddy.* TheFifties: Jack Rabbit Slim's is heavily inspired by TheThemeParkVersion of this.* {{Foreshadowing}}: ** Jules on Marsellus Wallace, "Does he look like a bitch?" "No." "Then, why did you try to fuck him like a bitch? ... You tried to fuck him. And Marsellus Wallace does not like to be fucked by anybody except Missus Wallace."** Near the beginning of Butch's story when Esmerelda asks him what it feels like to kill a man, he can't answer because he didn't do it knowingly. By the end of Butch's story [[spoiler:and two corpses later]], Butch could probably describe the feeling in detail.** The conversation about Mr. Wallace's apparent DisproportionateRetribution to the man that allegedly gave Mrs. Wallace a foot massage serves to build up the tension for the temptation and nervousness that Vince will be feeling when he has to take Mia out for the evening.* FreestateAmsterdam: [[SeinfeldianConversation Vincent tells us about this.]]* FunnyBackgroundEvent: By itself it's not particularly funny, but the classy party Winston Wolf is attending when he receives the summons to help Jules and Vincent becomes a lot funnier when you realize it's not even eight o'clock in the morning when it's taking place.* GeniusDitz: Vincent isn't ''completely'' dumb: he can speak a little French. Plus:-->''[Vincent points at the various Jack Rabbit Slim's servers.]''-->'''Vincent:''' That is Marilyn Monroe. And ''that'' is Mamie Van Doren. I don't see Creator/JayneMansfield, so it must be her night off.-->'''Mia:''' Pretty smart.-->'''Vincent:''' Yeah, I got my moments. * {{Gorn}}* GroinAttack: Marsellus puts a shotgun blast into the groin of his rapist.* HandCannon: The giant revolver carried by the third guy in Brett's apartment. Jules and Vincent comment on its size.-->'''Jules:''' Did you see the size of that gun? It was bigger than him.* HashHouseLingo: The retro MaltShop Jackrabbit Slim's uses hash house lingo in its menu. Mia orders her milkshake "Martin and Lewis" rather than "Amos and Andy" (vanilla rather than chocolate). Meat is ordered either "burnt to a crisp" or "bloody as hell."* HeelRealization: The entire final part of the movie involves Jules' realization that he was, in fact, a tool used by wicked men. It's left unknown whether or not he helped Pumpkin and Honey Bunny have the same sort of realization as well.* HollywoodSilencer: Butch empties several rounds of a silenced MAC-10 into Vince. Despite being in a condominium surrounded by people, nobody seems to hear them. * HyperlinkStory* HypocriticalHumor: ** Whether it was intended for humor or not, shortly after his HeelFaithTurn, Jules tells Vincent to stop committing blasphemy by taking God's name in vain. After that scene, however, Jules has no problem using the same language he scolded Vincent for, himself.** During the opening scene, Pumpkin complains about how "[[AsianStoreOwner too many foreigners own liquor stores]]", which makes robbing them harder. Pumpkin is an Englishman in America -- a foreigner, in other words.* IceCreamKoan: Deconstructed. At first Jules CatchPhrase seems like this, which Jules even lampshades, but when he's given a reason to think about it he realizes that it's actually highly applicable to his life, just not in the way he expected.* IJustShotMarvinInTheFace: {{Trope Namer|s}}, from the scene where Vincent blows a man's brains out in Jules's car with a negligent discharge. Please note that although Vincent blames a bump, the car is moving pretty smoothly. They only get bumpy when Jules is on the phone, after Marvin's brains are splattered over the back window.* ImagineSpot: Jules imagines Bonnie's potential reaction to coming home and finding "a couple of gangsters in her kitchen doin' a bunch of gangster shit".* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: PlayedForLaughs and when that one guy misses [[ThoseTwoBadGuys Jules and Vincent]]. At point blank range. [[EpicFail Six times.]] This becomes a Deconstruction when, understandably enough, this causes Jules to suspect DivineIntervention.* InformedAttractiveness: While not directly said out loud, whenever someone jokingly accuses Vincent of going on a date with Mia Wallace, it implies that she is so beautiful, that no one could resist her. Being played by UmaThurman helps too. * InsistentTerminology: "Whose motorcycle is this?" "It's a chopper, baby."* IntercourseWithYou: Mia plays "Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon" after a sexually charged evening while Vincent tries to pep-talk himself into ''not'' having sex with her.* InTheNameOfTheMoon: Jules Winnfield's (mis)quoting the Biblical book of Ezekiel before pulling the trigger.* IronicEcho: Butch telling Marsellus "That's pride fucking with you" while hitting him in the head.** Jules' (mis)quoting of Ezekiel 25:17* {{Jerkass}}: Vincent's behavior is particularly obnoxious as he outright antagonizes others without a real reason, including when they are helping him clean up his messes.* JustForPun: The punchline of Mia's joke, "Ketchup," is such a lame pun that only a near-death experience impels her to tell it.* KarmaHoudini: Pumpkin and Honey Bunny are made to give back the MacGuffin briefcase and Jules's wallet... but, other than that, they get to keep all the loot they've robbed, including the contents of the register, several of the other diners' wallets and a cell phone, and walk away entirely unharmed - while, admittedly, looking rather shook up. Of course, Jules has made it expressly clear that if it were any ''other'' day, he'd have just popped them both and finished his coffee, but he's making a conscious effort to change his ways.* KatanasAreJustBetter: Butch chooses a katana over a variety of other weapons, and is clearly awed by it. * TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: While Vincent and Jules are established early on to be very seasoned and brutally efficient mob hitmen, they themselves are completely awestruck later when they have the opportunity to meet Winston Wolf, who is apparently a well-respected veteran within Marsellus' criminal organization. Even later while eating breakfast at the diner, the two continue to gush over how cool and awesome it was to work with him.* LargeHam: Jules at many points, such as the ending and of course the infamous "''Describe what Marsellus Wallace looks like!''" bit. Given that EvilIsHammy, deliberate - and it works.* LaserGuidedKarma: When they first meet, Vincent goes out of his way to needlessly antagonise Butch. The second time they meet, Butch has found Vincent's carelessly-dropped gun in his apartment and pointing it at him as Vincent exits the bathroom. From the looks on both men's faces just before Butch pulls the trigger, it's clear they both remember the earlier conversation only too well. * LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn: The music playing during the opening credits comes from Jules and Vincent's car radio.** Pushing it even further, the music plays during the scene selection screen on the DVD, the background is the car dashboard.* LeftYourLifesaverBehind: Vincent is waiting for Butch to show up at his (Butch's) house to kill him. [[spoiler:While waiting Vincent needs to go to the bathroom, so he leaves his Ingram MAC-10 on the kitchen counter. While he's in the bathroom Butch shows up, and uses the Ingram to kill the unarmed Vincent as he leaves the bathroom]]. The DVD commentary informs us that the gun belonged to Marsellus, not Vincent. But still.* LethallyExpensive: Captain Koons's butt-smuggled wristwatch.* LethallyStupid: Vincent accidentally kills Marvin and spatter the car with blood, in the middle of a talk.* LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: ** The first of Marsellus' two things he asks of Butch after Butch saves him from Zed's... attentions.** Mia and Vincent decide to never speak to Marsellus about what happened.* TheLoad: ** Vincent is never much more than a liability in whatever he's involved in. He fails to locate the hiding man in the bathroom while Jules is interrogating the others, accidentally shoots Marvin, gets into a pointless argument with Wolf, almost screws up Jules' peace negotiation with Pumpkin and Honey Bunny, and gets himself killed waiting for Butch. It's his heroin that Mia overdoses on as well, though he can hardly be blamed for leaving it in his coat.** Fabienne is also the load to Butch. He would have just skipped town and avoided all the trouble in his plot line, except that she accidentally left his most valued possession behind in their apartment when she packed their stuff (even though he ''specifically reminded her'' to get it). Also, when he shows up at the end, beaten and bloodied and riding a stolen motorcycle, she ignores his repeated pleas for her to hurry up and get on, and just stands there in the parking lot asking him stupid questions. She may also be aware of it; she takes such ''specific'' offense to being called "retard".* MacGuffin: ** The briefcase. ** The watch, which spent many years [[AssShove up various asses]] [[UpToEleven infected with dysentery]] in a Vietnamese prison camp.* MagicBullets: One of the major plot points involves the "bad bullets" version of this trope, where a man empties a high-caliber revolver at Jules and Vincent (at almost point blank range), but completely misses them. After killing him, Jules and Vincent examine the bullet holes in the wall, which the camera could not see until they stepped back, suggesting that the bullets should have passed through them. Lampshaded and arguably justified, as Jules points out that it couldn't possibly be anything but divine intervention and Vincent has no better rebuttal than any other FlatEarthAtheist. However, the commentary points out that some bullet holes were ''already'' in the wall when Vince and Jules went in.* MaltShop: Jackrabbit Slims is a retro theme restaurant modeled after a MaltShop of TheFifties. They use HashHouseLingo in the menu.* ManicPixieDreamGirl: Mia is a version of this. Vincent assumes he wouldn't get along with her for real as she is his boss' wife. However upon getting to know her, he has a good time with her to the point that it's almost {{ship tease}}d between them. However, her overdose and [[spoiler:Vincent's death]] prevent the relationship from going too far. * MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: ** The fact that the mysterious contents of the briefcase glow, and cause awe in everyone who sees them, and are locked with the combination 666 suggest that there might be something supernatural about it, but it is never confirmed or denied.** The Magic Bullets scene leads to an argument between Jules and Vincent regarding whether or not it was an act of God or pure luck. The yellow flashes of light that are placed between cuts during the shooting might link the event to the glowing yellow contents of the briefcase.* MeaningfulBackgroundEvent: In the first scene, when Pumpkin and Honey Bunny are discussing the merits of robbing liquor stores or restaurants, Vincent can be briefly seen heading for the bathroom, and Jules can be overheard in the background (listen [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64Ys-jOyA5U here]] starting at 3:06).** Flipped at the end of the film where we see the same scene from Jules and Vincent's point of view, you can see Pumpkin and Honey Bunny having their discussion in the background, including the "Garcon! Coffee!" line repeated. * MeaningfulName: Butch has a discussion regarding the meaning of names with a taxi driver who has some interest in the subject. He claims that for Americans, "our names don't mean shit". Which seems rather a strange thing for a professional boxer named Butch to say. * MementoMacGuffin: Butch's watch.-->And now, little man, I give the watch... to you.* MessyPig: Jules gives this as a reason for why, despite not being Jewish, he doesn't eat pork.* MoodWhiplash: ** Captain Koons' speech to young Butch starts off seriously, but then takes an abrupt turn for the absurd halfway through. Yet, somehow, the drama is not completely lost, and Butch's obsession with keeping the watch safe seems completely justified. ** Pleasant, polite Honey Bunny transforming into a shrieking, swearing robber** Jules and Vincent's rambling conversations concluding with dramatic assassinations. * MoralDilemma: The main characters struggle with these, as [[WordOfGod Tarantino]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DyDMS-Ag28&feature=relmfu explains.]]* MuggingTheMonster: ** Two robbers try to hold up a professional hitman. Unusually, the conflict gets resolved more or less peacefully because of benevolence on the hitman's part.** Zed and Maynard kidnapping a crime boss and a pro boxer. It doesn't go well for them.* NobodyPoops: Averted by Vincent. Several times. * NoodleIncident: Tony Rocky Horror getting thrown by Marsellus Wallace. Rumor is Tony gave Mia a foot massage but [[spoiler: Mia writes it off as bullshit and says she doesn't know why Marsellus chucked him either. It's not totally clear whether or not she's telling the truth, however; Vincent still seems slightly dubious.]]* NoodleImplements: Marsellus Wallace tells Butch that he's going to call several of his men to "go to work" on his rapist Zed with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch, then proceeds to tell Zed that he's going to "get medieval on his ass." (Besides [[ColdBloodedTorture the obvious]], the other implication of those tools is that the men will be DisposingOfABody. The blowtorch is for burning off his finger- and toeprints; the pliers are for pulling out teeth, so he can't be tracked via dental records. No-one will ever know what happened to him.)* NWordPrivileges: "Nigger" is peppered throughout the script, said by (and to) white and black characters alike. The most famous being Jimmie (who is married to a black woman), and his query about whether his garage has a sign saying "Dead Nigger Storage". [[spoiler:If you are curious: it doesn't.]]* OddCouple: What do Butch and Fabienne see in each other? Butch is a crusty American boxer and Fabienne is a childlike and bizarre Portuguese girl who doesn't seem to understand much of what he says. He admits that he calls her a "retard," jokes about punching her in the stomach, and spends most of their dialogue yelling at her.* OhCrap:** [[spoiler:The Gimp laughs at Butch trying to break free of his bonds. When Butch ''does'' break free, the Gimp's laughter quickly turns to horrified screaming.]]** The look on Vincent's face when he emerges from the bathroom to see Butch pointing his own gun at him. Doubly so given how [[LaserGuidedKarma in their earlier meeting Vincent went out of his way to antagonise Butch.]]* OneLinerNameOneLiner: "Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead."* OnlyAFleshWound: By the way Marsellus says what specific time period he's going to get on the ass of the guy that just raped him, you get the impression that the guy would live to face it. Despite the fact that he just shot him in his ''[[GroinAttack crotch]]'' with a shotgun! [[ShownTheirWork However, birdshot or anything smaller than buckshot penetrates quite poorly]], so the chance of his injuries being fatal may be...unfortunately small.* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: The two robbers "Pumpkin" and "Honey Bunny". Honey Bunny's real name is revealed to be Yolanda. Jules calls Pumpkin "[[Music/TheBeatles Ringo]]" because of his British accent.* OutlawCouple: "Pumpkin" and "Honey Bunny".* PantsPositiveSafety: [[spoiler:After ditching their bloodied suits from the Marvin incident,]] Jules and Vincent are seen carrying their guns in the elastic waistbands of their workout shorts.** Somewhat {{justified|Trope}} in this case. They still need them, but they can't just walk around carrying them in their hands without attracting attention. Workout shorts or not, they've got to put their guns somewhere...* PinkMist: Happens with [[spoiler:Marvin.]]* PreAsskickingOneLiner: Jules' reading of Ezekiel 25:17 (which can be found on the quotes page), especially the last line. [-''"If I said it -- [[PreMortemOneLiner it meant your ass.]]"''-]* ThePreciousPreciousCar: Vincent's Malibu. Also, Winston "The Wolf" Wolf's Acura NSX:-->'''Winston Wolf:''' I get my car back any differently than I gave it, Monster Joe's gonna be disposin' of ''two'' bodies.* PrettyLittleHeadshots: Completely averted with Marvin.* {{Pride}}: Discussed by Marsellus Wallace when he talks to Butch: "The night of the fight, you may feel a slight sting. That's pride fucking with you. Fuck pride. Pride only hurts, it never helps." He's trying to convince Butch to throw a fight by suggesting that his career as a boxer is essentially over, making this something of a "BreakThemByTalking". Butch later turns it around on Marsellus while he's beating him up, taunting him with "See that? That's pride fucking with you."* ThePublicDomainChannel: Lance watches Film/TheThreeStooges short "The Brideless Groom".* PulpMagazine: The movie poster is designed in the style of a Pulp Magazine cover. In it, Mia is pictured reading a pulp magazine with the title ''Pulp Fiction''.* PunctuatedForEmphasis: "Does!? He!? Look!? Like!? A bitch!?"* PunkInTheTrunk* RandomEventsPlot: There's no over-arching story. Things just happen to the characters, though several characters have changed by the end.* RapeAsDrama* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Even though nearly everyone in the film is morally dubious or outright a criminal, only Maynard and Zed get completely unsympathetic treatments. * RapePortrayedAsRedemption: Marsellus.* RealityEnsues: Body disposal and cleanup is a ''lot'' of work, especially for a gruesome death like a headshot.* ReCut: Defied. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7rkRVTKUWM In commentary]], Creator/QuentinTarantino mentions that he didn't do a director's cut because: -->'''Tarantino:''' "I made the movie I wanted to make the ''first'' time."* ReferenceOverdosed: The TropeCodifier.* RefugeInAudacity: As mentioned under NWordPrivileges, the entirety of the "Dead Nigger Storage" rant.* RetiredMonster: Jules presumably becomes one after the movie finishes.* RetroUniverse: The film is filled with references to past time periods. Jules wears a Jheri curl hairstyle, popular in the 70s. The soundtrack is filled with a lot of surf rock from the 60s. ''WesternAnimation/ClutchCargo'' plays on a Butch's motel television. A 50s theme diner plays a big part in the plot. The film takes its name from "pulp fiction," a style of fiction popular in the first half of the 20th century. The film poster apes the style of a pulp fiction magazine cover from around the 40s and 50s. * TheReveal: Marsellus is either shown only from the back or mostly out of focus for about two-thirds of the movie. Only after [[spoiler:he runs into Butch on the street during The Gold Watch arc]] is his face clearly shown throughout the rest of the film.* RiddleForTheAges: The contents of the briefcase. There his no official answer, though it was originally scripted to be diamonds before the filmmakers decided that a mystery would make it more interesting.* RuleOfCool: Jules' reason for reciting "scripture."* RunningGag: There are three times when Vincent goes into a bathroom and shit happens when he returns. [[spoiler: The last one kills him.]]* ScaryBlackMan: Jules and Marsellus.* SceneryPorn: Jack Rabbit Slim's. (Nearly literal in the case of the ''[[Film/TheSevenYearItch Seven Year Itch]]''-[[MarilynManeuver imitating]] MarilynMonroe impersonator.) * SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou: [[https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/ad/PulpFictionGuns.jpg Probably one of the most famous examples in film history.]]* SeinfeldianConversation: A Tarantino staple.* SharedUniverse: ** An early draft of the script had the briefcase containing the diamonds from ''Film/ReservoirDogs''. WordOfGod says that Vincent is Mr. Blonde's brother.** Red Apple cigarettes, which also appear in ''Film/KillBill, Film/FromDuskTillDawn, Film/RomyAndMichelesHighSchoolReunion, and Film/PlanetTerror.''** It also apparently takes place in the same continuity as the Creator/HowardHawks film ''Film/AirForce''. Winocki, the man who brought the gold watch back to America after Butch's grandfather was killed at Wake Island was a character in the film.* ShareTheMalePain: Immediately after Marsellus shoots one of the rapists in the balls ([[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill with a shotgun]]) you can see Butch with his hands over his balls.* ShesNotMyGirlfriend: Vincent and Mia are on a "Not Date." That involves dinner and dancing. * ShipTease: Vincent and Mia. Vincent even has to spend several minutes in the bathroom convincing himself that he'll politely leave so not to end up betraying his boss.--> '''Vincent:''' Is this what you call an uncomfortable silence?--> '''Mia:''' I don't know ''what'' you call this. (They share a HeldGaze)* ShotToTheHeart: Vincent does this to Mia, since they don't want a drug lord's wife going to the hospital with a drug OD. * ShoutOut: ** Eva Gabor's character's from ''Disney/TheAristocats'' inspired UmaThurman's dance.** Tarantino has stated that the briefcase was ''originally'' meant to be the same MacGuffin suitcase of diamonds from ''Film/ReservoirDogs'' until they changed it to [[Film/KissMeDeadly a glowing object instead.]] ** The scene where Butch is stopping at a crosswalk and Marsellus walks by is very similar to a scene in ''Film/{{Psycho}}''.** Jules' expanded version of Ezekiel 25:17 directly quotes the Creator/SonnyChiba film ''Karate Kiba'' (released in the West as ''The Bodyguard''--with "and you will know my name is THE LORD" (one of the few bits actually from Ezekiel) replacing "and they shall know that I am Chiba the Bodyguard". A lot of the original speech ''is'' cannibalised from famous Biblical verses, though -- "the path of the righteous man" from Isaiah 26:7, "[my] brother's keeper" from CainAndAbel (Genesis 4:9), "through the valley of darkness" from Psalm 23, among others.** ''Film/CharleyVarrick'': In that film, Boyle tells Young that their bosses will most likely go to work on Young with "a pair of pliers and a blowtorch" for failure on the job and possible betrayal.** Jules' blue shirt has a monochromatic version of the current page image for ComicStrip/KrazyKat.** Vincent wears a UC Santa Cruz T-shirt.** While trying to placate Jimmy, Jules says, "That's Kool and the Gang," referencing a funk band whose "Jungle Boogie" also appears on the soundtrack.** A character mentioned several times is called Tony [[Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow Rocky Horror]].** When Jules [[VillainEatsYourLunch eats Brett's Big Kahuna Burger]], moments before [[spoiler: shooting him and his fellow dealers sans Marvin.]] It's a clear shout out to ''Film/TheGoodTheBadAndTheUgly'', where Angel Eyes does the same thing to Stevens.* ShownTheirWork: ** Jules refers to his gun as "Mr. Nine Millimeter" to Ringo during the diner standoff; while the gun Jules uses appears to be a .45 caliber 1911 pistol, it's represented by a 9mm Star Model B clone. The only way to identify them at all is by the external extractor, a tiny strip of metal on the right side of the slide, and the lack of a grip safety, a button on the grip covered by the palm when held.** Everything Vincent says about Amsterdam was true at the time of the movie's release. Not surprising, since Tarantino apparently spent some time there while writing the script.* SickeningSweethearts: Pumpkin and Honey Bunny.* SignsOfDisrepair: As Butch looks for weapons, one sign in the shop reads Kill___ _Ed.* SmokingIsCool: Most characters smoke in the film and look cool doing it. Mia is attracted to the fact that Vincent rolls his own cigarettes. The dwarf bellhop even shouts "Call for Philip Morris!" at Jackrabbit Slim's, a reference to the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNci0UfRn8U cigarette company's old commercials]].* SoulBrotha: Jules wears a Gerry curl hairdo and PornStache and speaks with a bit of JiveTurkey. Tarantino is known for his 70s throwback embellishments. * SoundtrackDissonance: The "zany" jazz music heard in the pawn shop while [[spoiler: Marsellus is being raped]].* TheSomethingForce: "Fox Force Five"* {{Spiritual S|uccessor}}equel: [[WordOfGod Tarantino]] admits that ''Film/KillBill'' is somewhat based on the "Fox Force Five" pilot that Mia Wallace describes.* SpeechImpediment: ** {{Discussed}}. Being thrown out of a balcony and falling four stories messed Tony Rocky Horror really good. He developed a speech impediment over it, according to Jules.** Butch also mocks Fabienne by imitating her with impaired speech. Fabienne demands that he stop depicting her as a "Mongoloid"; Butch answers: "I didn't say 'Mongoloid', I said 'retard'."* StrayShotsStrikeNothing: subverted when a disoriented Marcellus fires his pistol into the crowd surrounding Butch's wrecked car and hits a bystander who goes down and screams for the rest of the scene.* StupidCrooks: Vincent has a large number of personal WhatAnIdiot moments, two of which are directly in relation to his job as a hitman and enforcer for Marsellus Wallace's criminal empire. Not only does he provide us the {{Trope Name|rs}} for IJustShotMarvinInTheFace, but Vincent also [[spoiler:leaves Marsellus' submachinegun in plain view while he [[CentralTheme goes to the bathroom]] at Butch's apartment when he's supposed to be waiting for Butch to show up and kill him. Butch ''does'' show up, and, upon noticing the gun, picks it up and shoots Vincent dead after he steps out of the bathroom.]]* StylisticSuck: The poster has weathered edges to better resemble a battered old pulp magazine.* TakeOurWordForIt: The audience never sees what Marsellus Wallace sent Vincent and Jules to retrieve, but, going by the glow that radiates from the briefcase containing it, and the reactions of all the characters who see it, we're to believe it's pretty fantastic. Tarantino originally intended it to be the loot from ''Film/ReservoirDogs,'' but changed it to an unseen light, and has stated that it's "whatever you want."* ThereAreNoPolice: the characters worry about run-ins, but we never see a cop despite multiple shoot-outs, deaths, injuries, and accidents.* ThirdPersonFlashback: At flashback to when Butch is given his father's watch, with Captain Koons telling him the story, starts in first-person but then goes third.* ThoseTwoBadGuys: Jules and Vincent.* ThrowingTheFight: Butch is supposed to take a dive. He does not. Things get out of control from there.* TooDumbToLive: Vincent, so very very much. He lasts about a day without his HypercompetentSidekick Jules [[spoiler:after he finds religion and retires.]] Vincent knew Butch could be coming back at any moment, yet decided to take his time on the pot while Marcellus was out of the building with his machinegun on the kitchen counter.* ToThePain: Marsellus is about to "get medieval on your ass".* TortureCellar: The basement of the pawn shop.* TragicKeepsake: Why Butch is so protective of his father's watch.* TranslationByVolume: When the hitman Jules psychologically tortures his future victim Brett, he plays with this concept. He's half-infuriated, half-amused that the confused boy answers him several times with only "what?", which leads to this [[MemeticMutation iconic]] exchange: -->'''Jules:''' What ain't no country I ever heard of! Do they speak English in What? -->'''Brett:''' What?-->'''Jules:''' ENGLISH, MOTHERFUCKER, DO YOU SPEAK IT?!* TreasureChestCavity: Captain Koons keeps a watch in his rectum for the son of the former owner.* TrunkShot* UnderdressedForTheOccasion: An unusually gory example.* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: As Vincent is walking to his and Mia's booth toward the back of Jack Rabbit Slim's, he passes - sometimes within touching distance - performers dressed as Ed Sullivan, Creator/MarilynMonroe, Mamie Van Doren, {{Franchise/Zorro}}, Creator/JamesDean, and JerryLewis, among other icons. He doesn't give any of them a second glance.* VerbalBusinessCard: "I'm Winston Wolf. [[CleanupCrew I solve problems.]]"* VictimizedBystander: A disoriented Marsellus Wallace starts shooting wildly into the crowd around Butch's wrecked car after Butch runs him over, missing Butch but hitting an innocent bystander who falls to the ground screaming. * VillainsOutShopping: Marsellus was literally out shopping for donuts, for himself and Vincent when he ran into Butch. Vincent and Jules also go out for breakfast prior to the hold up. * VisualPun: During the "adrenaline shot" scene, there are two board games in the background - "Operation" and "Life". * VitriolicBestBuds: Jules and Vincent, again.* WalkingTheEarth: Invoked, as Jules' retirement plan* WaxingLyrical: Mia's "I said goddam, goddam" is from the chorus of Music/{{Steppenwolf}}'s ''The Pusher''.* WhamLine: ** "Garçon, coffee!" The second time we hear it. Wham, we're back at the beginning of the film. ** Julius's affected friendliness finally breaks when he snarls, "I don't remember asking you a goddamn thing!"* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The last we see of the Gimp, he's hanging unconscious by his leash. It's unclear whether he asphyxiated or recovered after Butch leaves.* WhatYouAreInTheDark: Butch has the opportunity to just walk out of Maynard and Zed's shop. He hesitates at the front door, and then goes back to rescue the man who wants him dead. The [=DVD=] commentary states that Butch was reminded of Captain Koons' words from when he was a boy: "When two men are in a situation like me and your dad were for as long as we were, you take on certain responsibilities of the other."* WolverinePublicity: Marketing wise, Mia Wallace was everywhere, on the posters and the home video release covers. * YouLookFamiliar: According to WordOfGod, this is set in the same universe as ''Film/ReservoirDogs''. Several actors (Creator/HarveyKeitel, TimRoth, Tarantino himself) return.----->''"You read [[Literature/TheBible the Bible]], Ringo?"''

How can traffic generation help you?
This is a question that is being asked by those who are new to the online environment. Traffic actually means a number that shows how many people have accessed your website during a certain period of time. The bigger this number it is, the bigger are the chances of turning a potential customer to a buying customer. This is a simple explanation, but the truth is that it is extremely important to have not only simple traffic, but turning those views into actual buying actions.
An increase in the traffic doesn't necessarily mean an increase in business, but with the right knowledge and the right tools, this can easily happen. Getting an increased traffic can mean the difference between failure and success. There is always an importance in not only getting more traffic, but being able to transform that traffic from subscribers to possible customers and then to paying customers.
Get more subscribers
This is another way to increase the traffic. More subscribers mean that your email list will grow bigger in time. There are several methods to achieve that, and if you are at the beginning of your business you will find out its value in no time. If you get more traffic to your website soon, it will mean that there are more subscribers, and those will sooner or later turn into real paying customers, not only possible customers.
Getting more subscribers can also help you start an email marketing campaign, not just the usual mails that you send regarding your business. With the right help from specialized people you will be able to increase your income by simply emailing your customers once or twice a week. Along with this, with the right content you will achieve the target you have set for yourself.
What about social media traffic?
It's known that today you must be present on the social media networks, or your competitors will get ahead of you. The social networks represent the place where everybody shares pieces of thoughts, pictures, videos and a lot more, not to mention content.
Getting your own page on one of the social networks will increase your visibility in the online environment, not to mention it will increase your business. All this can happen only with the help of the specialists, who have the right knowledge and the tools to make it happen.
The right company
The right company works only in your interest. They need to have a proven portfolio with former projects that they have successfully finished and with proven numbers. They also need to have a team of professionals who know their job and love what they do. For them it will be easy to achieve all those targets.
When choosing a company to increase the traffic for your website, make sure they are legit and they work according to the law, within your budget and within a set time frame. It's important that all these are respected, this offering you more time to build up your business.
A simple call to SEO2 will get you in touch with our operators to find out more about traffic generation and what we can do for you!

Good quality
Posted by Reviewer3358627 on Mar 03, 2010
I love Gaia herbs, good quality, pure, they are just a bit pricy compared to others. I usually pay the extra, I know a lot of cheaper brand herbs were likely extracted by hexane

text: Self-regulating tyres inflate while you drive Autopia 27 September 12 by Alexander George Goodyear We all know the consequences of driving on under-inflated tyres: faster wear, increased potential for popping, and decreased mileage. Since 2011, Goodyear has been working on self-regulating tyres, and next year the company will begin testing its new self-inflating technology on commercial vehicles. If the system can handle the 100-plus psi (689, 476 Pa) requirements of big rigs, AMT (Air Maintenance Technology) will likely make its way down to passenger vehicles.Here's how it works: a sensor on the interior detects when pressure has dipped too low. A valve mounted on the sidewall opens up, and as the tyre rotates, the vehicle's weight compresses a tube built into the tyre's circumference that injects air to increase tyre pressure. Once it hits the optimal pressure, the system shuts the valve and the ride proceeds as normal.Add to this system compatibility with re-treaded tyres, and it's an appealing package, especially for trucking companies. Goodyear hopes that with installation in commercial transportation, they'll be able to gather data to optimise the system for peak performance on the road.Source: Wired.com Edited by David Cornish Latest on wired.co.uk

Fast forward to now. He turned 4 in July and OMG. It was like a switch flipped overnight. He's openly defiant, moody, whiny, often won't listen (ignores instructions), is constantly bouncing, jumping around and playfighting. He often starts the day with some teary accusation of something eg. "You didn't bring me water when I was thirsty in the night etc" even if I did, which, TBH, even though I am the adult and in control of my emotions, just sets me off in a bad mood first thing in the morning. If he gets a treat, instead of saying "thank you" like he would have before, he'll often complain about some aspect of it, or ask if he's getting more after. Although he's still not really throwing tantrums, he seems less able to control his emotions than when he was 3, and gets upset over little things that wouldn't have bothered him before. I love him to death, but some days he drives me insane.
Debate team, how are/were your 4 year olds? Please tell me it gets better!!

Blakely: 'Sense of closure, but some unfinished business' for C's
For the first time, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Jason Terry held Brooklyn Nets jerseys in front of them at an introductory press conference on Thursday, signaling the end to their time as Celtics.
CSNNE Celtics Insider A. Sherrod Blakely said that their introductions brought a sense of closure to Celtics fans.
The trade that sent two legendary Celtics to Brooklyn became official on July 10, and it was a weird feeling all around Boston to see Pierce, who had been a Celtic all his life, don a different color than green.
"I think it's not really gonna hit Celtics fans until you actually see them playing in a Brooklyn Nets jersey that they're no longer Celtics," Blakely said on "SportsNet Central." "Certainly when you look at Paul Pierce's body language and Kevin Garnett that this is as awkward for them as it is for us, looking at it from the outside."
Garnett, Pierce and Terry join Deron Williams, Joe Johnson and Brook Lopez in Brooklyn, as the Nets are in a win-now mode.
