Just to be clear, I focus on characters I like and actors I like who play characters I like.
Now that that is out of the way...
Perhaps my favorite villain in the Marvel Universe (with the exception of Loki), Ronan was amazing. From the moment I first saw Ronan on screen I was hooked. Then again the first moment I saw him he was naked... and I'm never one to turn down a naked Lee Pace. The voiceover that Lee provided during the cleansing/dressing scene for Ronan was insightful and the moment the voiceover began I knew it belonged to Ronan (simply because Lee delivered many of Ronan's lines in a voice similar to that of Thranduil from "The Hobbit" only much MUCH deeper). It was what I personally think of as a theater voice, a use of a psuedo-British accent that was popular in classic films. For some reason it fit Ronan, who has a very distinct "haughtier than thou" attitude about practically everyone and everything.
I was a bit muddled on the blocking of course as Ronan's costume seemed like it was very heavy and hard to move in. I'm not sure if it was or not but this was evidenced to me during his fight with Drax on Knowhere. Ronan is a powerhouse that knocks things down with one punch (or swing) so I highly doubt he has any need for graceful movements when all he has to do is side-step or hit back. He seemed like a prolonged combat sort of fighter as long as he didn't need to give chase. His rigid posture is also seen when we witness him sititng upon his throne on the Dark Aster (his freakin' awesome and huge space ship). His posture never slouches (which is actually a rarity for Lee Pace's characters who tend to hunch a bit in the shoulders) and gives off an heir of a leader on the verge of battle (which he is) who is simply trying to contain himself so he doesn't go killing everything in sight. If this posture however was a result of costuming or a conscious choice on Lee's behalf, I can't say.
One of my personal favorite moments was when Ronan killed The Other. I have to agree that The Other was quite annoying and while Ronan was treating Thanos with respect, in my opinion, the Accuser didn't need to be lectured about it. But at the same time this scene also gave Ronan an incredible amount of street-cred because hey, he killed his boss's right hand man... in front of said boss. To me it seemed like it was a strike out of just sheer annoyance on Ronan's part, and perhaps a few seconds afterward he thought to himself, "Crap... didn't mean to do that..." and yet judging by Ronan's nature (or what I know of it from the film) that thought would have been fleeting at best and the death of The Other was not worth lamenting in any terms.
Ronan's interactions with Nebula however confused me to a degree. It was by no fault of Ronan of course and more of Nebula's reasons for sticking by his side. Ronan, to me, seemed to treat her like an acceptable annoyance who, as long as she didn't tick him off, would get to live.
One thing I would have liked to have seen expanded upon was Ronan's viciousness toward the Xandarians. We got him smashing in one man's head (and probably spine and chest cavity and maybe even pelvis by the time his strike stopped) with his Universal Weapon (that giant, bad-ass war-hammer of his) and that was brilliant, especially with the blood flowing along the indentions in his ship. But I would have liked to see more of that. We get the backstory of Drax's family being mercilessly slaughtered by Ronan... and we get that Ronan ordered Nebula to "cleanse" the Kyln (the prison) once it became clear that there was no information forthcoming about Gamora... but we don't see these things. A lack of seeing such barbarity makes it increasingly hard to hate the character of Ronan, and I really do adore a good movie villain that I can both hate and love at the same time.
Something else I would have liked to know was how did Rocket's gun not work on Ronan? A shell to the chest like that would've blown a hole in anything, yet all that happens is Ronan's armor gets dented. This leads me to believe that the armor was, indeed, insanely heavy to wear and even though Lee gained muscle it seems visually for the role (his body was more toned than it was as Joe in "Halt & Catch Fire"), I'm curious as to how an armor that heavy could have been worn effectively without a much larger muscular build (like say The Rock's).
Finally however was my absolute favorite scene of the entire movie (a scene that only beat out "Dancing Groot" because it was so ridiculous). Ronan, literally screaming at Starlord; "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" and here is Starlord, dancing and singing like a moron and Ronan just staring at him as if he had grown a second head. I couldn't stop laughing. Not because the performance was absurd or the sheer idea of it stupid, but because Starlord's improvisation was BRILLIANT and telling. Singing and dancing, as evidenced from Starlord's earlier conversation with Gamora, wasn't really in the Kree repitoire of skills. So obviously, Ronan would think this strange humanoid a complete nut case.
Granted not long after that Ronan was dead... and I was sad... because I hate when villains are killed off. A good villain is hard to write and harder to perform and Ronan was written very well and performed brilliantly. I can't say that I don't hold some sort of hope that maybe Ronan will return somehow one day... because in all honesty, I wouldn't have gone to see the film in the first place if Lee Pace hadn't been playing Ronan to begin with. That isn't to say the movie's not good of course. It's hilarious! I loved every minute of it really. But it's always best when you can see a film for one specific reason... and that reason doesn't disappoint.

Invoice number not showing up on Authorize.netAsked by redpalm on September 02, 2015 at 10:20 AM
We are having the same issue as:
We are almost all done with our new Authorize.net integration, however, the invoice number is not showing up.
We did follow the instructions on the hidden field/unique ID with a prefix. Which shows up correctly on our notifier emails, but does not pass through on the Authorize.net emails. Regarding field: Invoice
Here are our Authorize.net settings:
Here is a screen shot of the Jotform:
And the Authorize.net Email receipt:
Any ideas?
JotForm Support
To set the invoice number to a certain field, click on your payment field, then click on the little gear in the top right to open the settings:
Then change the "Invoice Number Field" to your invoice field. This should allow for it to come through properly.
If it still does not, let us know and we will be happy to have another look.
Perfect, that did the trick! Didn't even know the gear/options button was available for this type of field!
JotForm Support
Glad to hear it! If you have any further questions, let us know and we will be happy to help.

(Adds government statement in final paragraph)
PARIS, Nov 16 (Reuters) - Bic, a maker of lighters, pens and razors, could change its mind about investing in France if the European Union does not renew antidumping duties on Chinese lighters, its chairman said.
In an interview with French daily Le Figaro on Friday, Bruno Bich said the company has a plan to invest several tens of million of euros in its lighters business in the next three years.
"A large part would be destined to the Redon site and will be maintained if the duty is renewed," Bich said, referring to a company plant in France's Brittany region. "If not, we will have to reexamine our decision."
Lighters generated around 27 percent of Bic's annual sales in the first nine months of 2012 and are the group's second-largest business after stationery.
The antidumping measures were approved in 1991 and the European Commission is due to decide whether to extend them by Dec. 12.
The French government said in a statement on Friday that it had written to EU Trade Commissioner Karel De Gucht asking him to examine Bic's request "with the upmost attention". (Reporting by Elena Berton and Benjamin Mallet; Editing by Christian Plumb and Kenneth Barry)

Ari has been a working dog his entire life as a Search and Rescue K-9, helping to find missing people.

I want to thank The Honest Kitchen for their Ice Pups product - it was one of the few things Ari would "eat" while he was recuperating. Getting anything down was hard, but he'd slurp up the Ice Pups without hesitation. This photo of him playing with his big purple ball was taken just about a month after he nearly died. He now gets Invigor with his meals as well as his Ice Pups. Thank you so much!!

Tezza's blog post about her November Glossy Box, I made a subscription to Glossy Box instantly.
Somehow my Glossy Box arrived on 23th Dec which was really late and most people received theirs a week prior :( Meanwhile I received 5 to 6 tracking numbers from Glossy Box via email, yet in fact none were valid and related to my subscription :O It left me worry for a whole week :(
I had quite a high expectation. I saw some bloggers received Sally Hansen Mega Shine, Gorgeous lip pencil etc. The moment I opened mine, I experienced a slight disappointment
1. Auscreen SPF 30+ Everyday Lotion (15ml sample size) - a drugstore brand sunscreen, the small tube size is handy to be carried in handbag :) Sun is fierce in Australia and sun protection is a must!
2. Carmex Ultra Hydrating Lip Balm SPF 15 - another drugstore product, Carmex lip balms are well-known as giving pure hydration. I only hope this product is unscented. We'll see hahaa
3. John Frieda Frizz Ease Finishing Cream (30ml sample size)
4. Bed Head Manipulator (57ml full size) - I honestly wont use this product as I have no interest to make my hair ""spike, twist dreads or go punky"" LOL
5. Clinique Turnaround Overnight Radiance Moisturizer (7ml sample size) - Im glad to receive this product as I do enjoy using Clinique moisturizer :)
6. Clinique In-store offer for a 7 days supply of foundation sample - I went to Myer and DJ in the city, the staffs said they never saw it before and refused to redeem a sample for me :/ Fortunately, a nice guy in Chadstone Myer said the same thing but kindly gave me some sample to try out :) hahaa
7. A broken candy cane :(
I was kinda upset I didnt get a Sally Hansen Mega Shine, Gorgeous lip pencil or a perfume sample, instead I received two drugstore products :( I know I probably shouldnt expect to have all the good things?
I am still hesitating whether subscribe to the next month Glossy Box. For sure it is quite economical to receive products with greater values you paid for. Nonetheless, it is also a waste to pay and receive products not suitable for you.
Mmmm, dilemma

Collective Haul (II)
November was definitely a crazy month for me and school work really exhausted me.
But this semester is eventually over and its time for another haul =D
ASOS is one of my favorite sites to browse on even though its server seems quite unstable lately.
I purchased a set of stila lip glazes and also a NARS blush trio. Yeah! my first NARS product (: It includes Organsm, Albatross and Laguna which are the best selling shades of NARS. I do like the trio very much and its a really good buy.
Another purchase from ASOS - I have lower ambition this time.
RIMMEL Lasting Finish 25 hours - It is emilynoel83's favorite foundation and Im interested to know how good it is (: ! It is interesting that a majority of drugstore foundations sold in europe/asia come in glass bottle and pump but not in America, e.g. this Rimmel one, maybelline foundations etc.
Barry M Lip glosses and lip stick, the shades are beautiful and Im planning to write a blog post devoting into Barry M lip products (:
Echemist.co.uk is a website I discovered recently and I recommend it to you girls!
Even though it doesnt have a wide selection of products, delivery is highly efficient (I received my parcel in about 7 days) and gift wrapping is available for selected products.
I got my Garnier soothing toner, which is my favorite toner, a Lancome lipstick and foundation as well as a Maybelline superstay foundation. Happy happy (:
Last but not least, my little purchase from Beauty in the sky! Her business card is really lovely.
I got a Bobbi Brown Shimmer brick in Bronze as well as Guerlain eye shadow quad.
I know Black Friday and Cyber monday was just over. Happy shopping everyone (:

Collective Haul (I)
Long time no see =D hehe, I know I disappeared for months but I actually still havent finished my exam yet *cry* I cant wait n wanna share with u what I got in a month.
(I just spent way too much and IM SOOOO BROKE now :( haha )
yeah, I eventually got an iphone 4S. I needa be honest - Iphone is 100x better than HTC.
Better camera, shorter time to fully charge the battery, higher sensitivity in typing.
Im really happy with it n I dont think any other cellphone could attract me in short term =)!
I also had a little haul from SASA.com, I didnt get much but these stuffs actually cost me over $75 :S
Though Im never a fan of paper mask, my skin just gets a bit 'dry lately and needs some hydration. I used My beauty Diary masks before and didnt see much result, hopefully Ill have better luck with these two brands =)
And I found EOS lip balm on SASA. How exciting it is!
I love Ebay! Living in Australia means having little choices in products and suffering from high RRP n high tax, so Im pretty used to going on Ebay and get products with wide selection n mostly relatively low price* I just received two parcels, and more are on the way =)
let start off with the good one
Wet n Wild Color Icon 8 Eye shadows palettes
From: beauty_by_ari
I paid US$9 for each palette and $5.5 for combined shipping. Sometime sellers on Ebay charge an exorbitant amount for shipping and its really annoying! But I know this seller didnt earn a penny from shipping coz the stamp showed the fee was actually US$6.5 which was even higher than what I paid her :S And the delivery was fast, it only took about 4 to 5 days! A+!
The palettes were securely wrapped n arrived safely. These eye shadows really conduct excellent pigmentation and I hugely love the 738 COMFORT ZONE <3 the color combination is versatile, you wont mess up even if you just pick 3 random colors n use them. I wholeheartedly recommend this seller n the palettes <3 hehe
The Bad One
From: Jenjen12jen
First, the seller was not really nice =( As I purchased multiple items, I sent an email n asked her to combine shipping fees for me (coz somehow ebay didnt adjust the shipping fee automatically). She didnt even check what I purchased n just replied quite discourteously. That didnt give me a very good impression but I thought 'I do not care about much CS as long as the products are good'.
I received some eye shadows and they are good =) But I had some issues with the lipstick
The product was listed as a brand new item but I suppose you can tell from photo it is obviously USED!!!!
Her page didnt state any return policy or information. Considering it only cost $4 plus most sellers require buyers to pay for delivery fee if exchange/ return products, I didnt ask for exchange and only left a negative feedback on Ebay.
She sent me a msg TO BLAME ME NOT ASKING FOR EXCHANGE AND LEAVING A NEGATIVE COMMENT TO DRAG DOWN HER REPUTATION.
ok, I kinda understand reputation is fairly important for sellers, then she sent me another one
"I might have chipped/ smudged it when checking it"
Thats the part really driving me nuts. I guess you wont draw the product on ur lips while checking, right? But the lipstick I received has lip lines on it? I swear to god that it had been used by sb before I received it. There is no reason for me to weaver a lie coz I have no intention to ask for refunds.
As a customer, I could have understood n accepted it if she just told me that she sent a wrong/used product to me accidentally.
I just hate to be treated as if Im making troubles n inconsiderate. Now Im sure I will never purchase anything from her in future.

Ebay (I) - 88 and 120 Eye shadow palettes
Shopping online is like playing a treasure hunt game. Until you actually receive the product, you never know what it will be - a gem or a crap. This post is dedicated to the multiple-eye-shadow palettes I got from eBay currently. I LOVE the 88 eye shadow palette but absolutely DISLIKE the 120 one
88 Color shimmer eye shadow palette
Purchased from: eachdesk
Price: US$13.99
Some people complain that the eye shadow is quite chalky. I think the light shades (e.g. the pink) have more fallout where the darker shades are better. However, this palette merely costs $13.99, you should not expect every shade to have the MAC quality, right?
As long as you dont drop the palette, the eye shadow will not break for no reason.
Yet it is done if you drop it =P
@@ For the price of $13.99, this palette is great! It offers a good variety of colors and excellent pigmentation. If you have not gotten any multi-eyeshadow palette, I do recommend this palette (especially for people living outside US and having difficulties of getting coastal scents).
88 Color shimmer eye shadow palette
Purchased from: Tomtop_auction
Price: US$12.00
I absolutely dislike this palette! When I opened the parcel, the case had already had couple places broken. OK, it is shipped from china so it might be forgivable. But WTF? why it has"MAC Professional Make Up" on? From the packaging, I can tell that its a complete knock-off which is not even close to the quality of any coastal scents/ BH cosmetics.
The size of each eye shadow pan is same the 88 color palette one. Most of the eye shadows are matte but couples are shimmering. The pigmentation is awful regardless you use a brush, sponge tip applicator or finger You might see some little scratch marks on some of the eye shadows, because I tried to use a spatula to scoop out the eye shadow. I thought the eye shadow would show up better if it was loose. Yet, I was wrong. This palette is a totally hopeless case. Only 10 eye shadow (out of 120!) has acceptable pigmentation.
Here is a swatch for couple eye shadows .
Besides the light blue, the other three barely show up.
I ordered 3 items, the hat is lovely and I do like it.
The second item, this palette, has a broken case and pathetic quality.
Another item I ordered has never arrived.
They asked me to wait a few more weeks but when I lost my patience, it was too late for me to leave a negative comment. Sucks! I will never purchase anything from this seller!

Australis Pararazzi Perfect High Definition Eyeshadow (Totally Busted)
Star white - extremely shimmery and quite a pretty white, not chalky at all
Champagne nude - a bit disappointing becoz it really blends into my skincolor and doesnt show up much. just tons of shimmer...
Barbie pink - very frosty but lovely, not as intense as it is on pan
Eggplant - amazing! I love this color, its really not easy to find a pigmented and pretty purple eyeshadow from drugstore!
Gun metal grey - its alrite, but not really pigmented
The eyeshadow color is really shimmering n not really intense, but wearable though
You might use a base to enhance its pigmentation.
A bit hit and miss, I think the eye shadow is pretty, especially the eggplant purple! I paid $10 for it, not expensive though. But overall its performance is not impressive and I dont love it, wont repurchase it.

From Sajida's blog sale =D!
Last month I found some beautiful gems from Sajida's blog sale.
I received a parcel a week after, on my birthday! It was like a surprise. =D
Sajida is so generous and she packed 7 free samples along with my purchase.
Really a great thank to her kindness ♥
Innisfree marble highlighter
The highlighter is compressed n molded as a lovely rose (or camellia?)
Even though I have no idea what the purpose of the purple/red part, the powder is finely milled and gives a luminous white shim. I think its quite a good highlighter, better than MAC I think (since the shimmer of MAC MSF are not fine enough and I could see them on my face -_-) I use this product as eye shadow occasionally and it works well =D
NARS Eyeshadow Duo (Blade Runner)
Honestly, the color combo instantly reminds me of CHRISTMAS LOL
- Forest green with extremely fine lime shimmer
- Mahogany with pink shimmer (even though im not a fan of red-tone brown)
I love this duo! the eyeshadow powder is extremely fine and 'creamy'. it goes on incredibly smoothly and pull off the color effortlessly. Apart from the packaging and RRP, everything is perfect!
I took this pic at the first time I used it. Absolutely loving the green, I think its one of the prettiest eyeshadow I have seen =D!
NARS Eyeshadow Duo (RAJASTHAN )
This palette is kinda a hit and miss for me. I was attracted by the blue since it looked so gorgeous in photo. but when i received it, the gold color is the one really amazing!
- blackish blue with fine lime shimmer, it definitely needs a base under it, otherwise the pigmentation could be quite poor
- light beige bronze with shimmer, it is absolutely stunning on eyelids and different from anything I have. quite a special eye shadow shade! it could be frosty and intensive depending on how you apply it
NARS Eyeshadow Duo (ISOLDE)
The frosty ginger color (left) was broken when I received my parcel *sad* but I really like that shade and I just pressed it myself (without using alcohol). rubbing alcohol costs $10 for 400ml here =_=... 1. it doesnt worth $10 for me... a cheap bottle of sparkling or sauvignon blanc only cost $5,6... of coz u cant use it for pressing eyeshadow LOL 2. I dont need 400ml, its too much =_= back to topic, both eyeshadows have red undertone
- frosty ginger, I love this color and it is kinda similar to MAC melon pigment
- shimmering copper, the color is too red but it could be an amazing color for fall =)!
It was the first time for me to put on glue on nails. I love them, the lace pattern with beads is really lovely. Yet, frankly, the glue is sooo devastating to my real nails... Tell you a funny thing - one of my glue-on nails popped out while me driving. and the guy sitting next to me FREAKED OUT and thought I lost my finger LOL hilarious!

My perfect neutral/nude - Prestige Lipstick (Champagne)
Bright red or vibrant purple is fun, but a nice neutral color is a must have in collection. It might be kinda similar to original lip color but better. For me, this prestige lipstick is my perfect neutral. Prestige is one of my favorite drugstore brands (its total intensity eyeliner is awesome!!!).
The color is really pretty, just a neutral color with a slight salmon tone.
Its not far from my natural lip color. of coz, a better version
The texture is not creamy but it goes on smoothly with lipbalm underneath it
Outfit of the day♥ I was wearing a grey crop top with a big black star on it* cute
It was actually quite windy in Melbourne, so I did wear a big jacket when I went out.
Again* talk to you girls soon XOXO

Birthday gifts for myself
Woohoo, I have just finished my exam today!
All the assignments, studies and works kept me really busy, eventually first semester is OVER!!
And I have time to blog now =D! I have whole lots of pics wanna post on! WAIT FOR ME =D!
Today Im gonna show the earrings I got.
Its like a 'tradition' to get myself some jewellery pieces for birthday.
(well, the expensive stuffs like gems, gold and diamonds are normally given by my mum/ relatives though)
Last year I got pearls and this year I got these
They are all made of sterling silver and [inexpensive] gemstones
Undoubtedly there are much finer jewellery in market, these are fairly good quality and pretty for the price
I used to have a pair of Aquamarie earrings but I lost one of them =(
The pair I bought this time is made of natural blue topaz, which has similar color as aquamarie for much cheaper price =D!
Really beautiful <3 I dont regret buying it!
this pair is actually not as pretty as the blue topaz one because the gemstones are smaller and less pure (even though the silver frame is more detailed)
The price of these earrings is only half of the blue topaz one >_< so... I felt I had to get them home LOL
When I was younger, I preferred getting cheap jewellerys because I could get like 10 different cheap pieces for the price of a pricey jewellery. But Im older now, I kinda understand why my mum's philosophy - quality > quantity + only getting the best one for your budget.
This is a really short post , I still have heaps of pics on my laptop and wait for me to post on the blog though
Talk to you girls real soon! Have a nice day everyone XOXO

How close they are - MAC VIVA Glam GAGA + Rimmel Lasting Finish lipstick Pink Blush + MAC lipstick A Rose Romance
What does GAGA this word remind you of? pop music? insanity?
My answer is - MAC VIVA Glam GAGA!
Somebody said that Rimmel Lasting Finish (Pink Blush) was very similar to GAGA.
Im going to show 3 lip products in comparison to GAGA lipstick in this post =D
From Left to Right
SAVVY Lip Jewels (Pink Diamond) - a warm, rosy pink with extremely tiny silver shimmers. its quite similar to GAGA lipstick from the tube but in fact, its really warm color n nth like GAGA lipstick color =( its a nice lipgloss though, works well alone or be on top of pink lipstick
MAC VIVA Glam GAGA I
Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick (Pink Blush)
MAC Lipstick A Rose Romance
SAVVY Lip Jewels (Pink Diamond)
Yeah, Like what I have said, its nothing close to GAGA in fact. But its a nice lipgloss and look great working alone or with other lipstick.
MAC VIVA Glam GAGA I
I have to admit it - GAGA this lipstick does not work the best for me. If my skin is paler or my face is shaper, it would look better I suppose? Since the color is really cool n with blue tone, the color is really brought out n eye-catching.
Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick (Pink Blush)
The color is way less cool than GAGA. The texture of this lipstick could be difficult to work with sometime since I feel its like pastel (too pigmented but wouldnt vary from skincolors). I normally have to top a lipgloss on it. but it does look quite good though
MAC Lipstick A Rose Romance
Pink Blush does look more alike to A Rose Romance even though A Rose Romance is slightly darker.
In conclusion
I think Rimmel Pink Blush is similar to Mac A rose romance instead of MAC Viva Glam Gaga.
** Dont ask what guys think? I ask couple of my guy friends and they were like color blind and couldnt distinguish any difference from the swatch LOL **
Have a nice day everyone XOXO

Discontinued - Maybelline Mineral Blush + French toasts ♥
Mineral cosmetics were so popular few years ago and all brands regardless of from drugstore or department store came up with a bloom of mineral powder products. The trend has faded but I still love some of the mineral makeup I owned. Maybelline Mineral blush is sure to be on my list.
The color is ORIGINAL ROSE which is a lovely pink color with a hint of peachy tone. The color is not bright ande bold but very light and wearable. The golden shimmers in the blush creates a natural glow to skin but the finish is definitely not overwhelming.
Sometime Im just too lazy to spend time putting on tons of makeup. I just use concealer to cover some of my imperfection, dust a thin layer of loose powder/mineral powder and a swipe of blush n lip products.
Even though I dislike loose powder form products, this blush is really lovable =)
EXTRA: French toasts with sweet berry sauce and cream

Lancome eyeshadow quad sample
Lancome product samples are flooding in the market. I currently got a sample quad from a pharmacy with couple dollars. Even though Im not sure whether its real, its not bad to try =)
Lancome Colour Focus Self-Select Quad
Top:: (Left) HoneyMoon, (Right) Floralesque
Bottom:: (Left) 4Dreaming, (Right) Lezard
swatch without base: the darker colors are alrite. but that two light color show up nothing!
Sonia Rykiel cream eyeshadow used as base:
Lezard and 4Dreaming are really awesome ♥
Again, the light colors are hopeless!
The colors are wearable and used for daily basis (with light hand). I just wore this look to uni =)
Or pat on more colors and its still alrite =)
Conclusion: The color le-www-form-urlencoded
Accept: apuad is not particularly special. Its not bad for couple dollars. But if u have the 88/120 color palette. There is no need to get this quad.

A veteran suggested the green vet flag design
Most civilians are oblivious to the solitary life of the vet.
As Veterans Day approaches, it is important for those who have never served to take a moment to understand the solitary world of a vet. Millions of vets are successful in all endeavors and professions. They are doctors, lawyers, business people and a thousand other professions. No matter how successful a vet might be, vets are often alone, mentally and spiritually each day and for the rest of their lives.
Many vets experienced and saw and heard and did things unimaginable to the average person. They also lived a daily camaraderie that cannot be repeated in the civilian world. In fact, many vets spend the rest of their lives seeking the same esprit de corps that simply is absent from their civilian lives and jobs. They long to spend just 15 minutes back with the best friends they ever had.
Vets are haunted by visions of horror and death, by guilt of surviving and living the good life, when some they knew are gone. They strangely wish sometimes that they were back in those dreadful circumstances, not to experience the dirt and horror and terror and noise and violence again, but to be with the only people a vet really knows, other vets. All vets have thoughts nearly every day.
Part of the solitary world of the vet is being able to enjoy complete bliss doing absolutely nothing. This is a trait grating to civilians who must constantly search for endless stimuli. Unbeknownst to them, the greatest thrill of all is just being alive.
So many vets walk around each day lost in their own special story. They were once great actors on a giant stage. Maybe they were heroes and now they arent anymore. Maybe they helped save the world and now they cant. Maybe they gave orders and now they take them. Perhaps their lives now are smaller and slower.
A vet has a hard time explaining what he or she did to those who didnt serve. Some vets want to talk, but they have no outlet. Maybe their only outlet is watching a war movie or reading a book about the conflict they were in.
How often do people say, Grandpa never talks about Korea. Thats because Grandpa knows no one can understand except other vets. Thats because Grandpa knows most people dont care. Vets speak another language, a language of their past.
All of this adds to the solitary world of the vet. Some are better at handling life afterwards than others.
So, this Veterans Day, if you see a vet sitting by themselves at a restaurant or on a train or shopping at the grocery store alone, take a moment to speak with them. Take them out of their solitary world for a moment. You'll be happy you did.
I talk to vets. Unfortunately I cant handle the graphic details of some of their experiences, it overwhelms me. This article doesnt really mention the nightmares they have.

ZionsCRY DAILY NEWS with prophetic analysis
Part of Honor the Labrador retriever's training was to sense when the demons of war had invaded Wade Baker's dreams. Gulf War veteran woke up with Honor licking his face.
This summer when Honor saw his master lying in the flag-draped casket, Honor reared up, placed his paws on the edge and tried to climb in, then curled up underneath.
The faithful dog attended the memorial service and the funeral, held in the chapel overlooking the Western North Carolina Veterans Cemetery. The rifle salute sent him leaping into one of the boys' laps.
Supreme Court clears way for California cross removal
June 25 2012
- The U.S. Supreme Court let stand a ruling that a large Christian cross as part of a war memorial in California violated the constitutional ban on government endorsement of religion.
The justices rejected an appeal by the Obama administration and by an association that erected the cross arguing the government should not be forced to take down the memorial cross that stood atop Mount Soledad in San Diego since 1954 to honor veterans.
The case involved whether a religious symbol can be prominently displayed on public land and whether the cross violated the U.S. Constitution's requirement on church-state separation.
The Supreme Court has been closely divided and has struggled for years to come up with clear rules on what religious displays, ranging from crosses to the Ten Commandments, can be put on public property, along with secular items.

Clarification on Charlottesville
If some Nazi wants to march at my side at a Free Speech rally, I'm no one to stop him. So long as he doesn't try to turn said march into a Nazi rally, obviously.
But if someone wants me to march with Nazis, in support of them, because we "must unite the right"?
Fortunately, almost all the right feels exactly the same way. The New Right is a massive populist movement. It doesn't need to "unite" with about 2000 assholes who hate Jews and want to purge the impure for "blood and soil" bullshit.
You know who really needs that, though? The Left. If you watch the coverage of this shitty little rally at Charlottesville (dwarfed by 2nd Berkeley, and countless Free Speech rallies, or any Trump rally ever), they will desperately want you to think all the New Right endorses the gang of inbred cunts who were doing seig heils.
So remember that: don't fall for Fake News.

Boy, you are just a blamer aren't you...grow up. It is not all about " the left " doing crap.ReplyDelete
What about if a Nazi decides to drive a truck into a crowd at that rally? Yeah,vox didn't say anything about that either. Or is that fake news too? I usually agree with you pundit,but what happened there was wrong, and had nothing to do with free speech.ReplyDeleteReplies
I didn't say anything about that because I wrote this blog entry BEFORE that incident took place.Delete
Of course, I find it apalling. I can't sttand these nazi shits, most of the right can't stand them. I have no sympathy for them. My problem is that the Left is using them to try to pretend that millions of people on the right are Nazis.
The Nazis were in Charlottesville ostensibly over a statue, but more importaantly their rally was entitled "unite the right", and they were trying to use the statue controversy to get other people on the Mainstream Right to come too and thus grant them legitimacy. NO ONE CAME. Only the Nazis, KKK, Aryan Nations, etc. No one in the regular right, be it Neocon, Theocon, Libertarian, Cultural Libertarian New Right, or the Trump movement went and joined these Nazi fucks.
But you know who agreed with the "unite the right" sentiment? The Media and the Left. They're using these fucks to portray us all as Nazis in spite of our having denounced and disavowed them a thousand times over, and in spite of NONE OF US SHOWING UP to their little rally.
Meanwhile, the Left repeatedly fails to denounce or disavow brutal antifa violence. The fact that a Nazi killed someone before an Antifa managed to kill someone was largely a product of coincidence, mingled with the realities of the Ctrl-Left's endemic lack of upper-arm-strength and their inability to trick their mom into letting them borrow the car.
The media and the left aren't portraying the right as nazis...fucking please. What the media IS doing is focusing on the fact that the president ELECTED by the right (and who has included white nationalists in his administration) isn't denouncing the nazi/white nationalist activities and violence that resulted in death.Delete
"NO ONE CAME. Only the Nazis, KKK, Aryan Nations, etc. No one in the regular right, be it Neocon, Theocon, Libertarian, Cultural Libertarian New Right, or the Trump movement went and joined these Nazi fucks."Delete
ummm...because you were there and checked their alignment badges? I'd say it's a no brainer that all of those flavors you mentioned were well represented by the tiki toting turds.
"If some Nazi wants to march at my side at a Free Speech rally, I'm no one to stop him. So long as he doesn't try to turn said march into a Nazi rally, obviously."ReplyDelete
Trouble is, that's what Nazis do, simply by their presence. If I see you marching and there's a guy in an SA uniform carrying a swastika flag marching beside you, I am going to think you are a Nazi too.Replies
Yes, you do have a valid point. If Nazis tried to "make it about them" by their flags or obnoxious behaviors (seig heiling or whatnot), I wouldn't stand for that either.Delete
My intention was to say if someone who is a nazi shows up at a rally for free speech in order to stand for free speech, then I won't stop them from doing that, and more than I'd stop a Maoist (weird as it would be to see one there). But only so long as it was about the free speech.
The problem is a Nazi isn't there in support of free speech. The Nazi philosophy is the antithesis of free speech. Their aim is to take it away from certain groups... permanently in most cases.Delete
Any Nazi on a free speech march is there to further the nazi agenda not in defence of free speech. They are simply using the march to further their aims.
Even if they aren't waving banners and shouting slogans, if they are identifiable as Nazis then they aren't their for free speech. They are using you and your march or rally to further the Nazi cause.
If they are truly there for free speech than they are a very confused Nazi!!!
Jg, that is the very problem with Democracy. You can end up voting yourself into a dictatorship if not careful. That is one reason many take the First and Second Amendments so seriously (Dictators usually try to silence speech and take weapons).Delete
Hate speech is not free speechReplyDeleteReplies
Hate speech is very much Free Speech. Because if not, you'll have any old Totalitarian piece of shit deciding that whatever they don't like is "hate speech".Delete
"Free Speech is only what I'm comfortable with" is by definition NOT FREE SPEECH.
I agree with the Pundit here, I don't like hate speech but all speech is free speech. People who spout hate should have the freedom to spout it. Others have the right to tear them down rhetorically and logically or to call them idiots and dicks, whatever.Delete
I don't agree with 'no platforming', if you disagree with someone or are offended by their views you can as an individual or part of a group with similar views engage with them and challenge them, attempt to prove them wrong using your own right to free speech. Or you can decide to not engage with them. Again that is your right.
What you don't have is the right to do is to decide for others what they should or should not hear. You have no right to make the decision for someone else.

I have to come out and side with RPGpundit on this one (surprising, I know).ReplyDelete
Republicans, conservatives, and the Alt-Right occasionally share white nationalist views. That doesn't make them terrorists, and that shouldn't get them condemned, banned, or criminalized for expressing their political views in public.
That individual who plowed his car into a crowd of protesters was a fucking idiot and is being brought to justice. The death of that woman and the others who were injured is tragic. But let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
If a liberal protester at that rally had exploded a bomb or intentionally driven over people, would we be calling liberals terrorists? I hope not.
As many of you know, I am not with Trump. I'm 10 times more likely to write FAKE PRESIDENT than FAKE NEWS. However, we're all Americans (well, many of us), and we all have to get along with a modicum of civility.
I think the post gets things precisely right. Though I submit that many of the current crop of "neo-Nazis" are poseurs who don't really have or care to have a coherent set of beliefs. They're out for attention or because they have nothing better to do. And they may even get their kicks from being attacked or from being "misunderstood." "Real" Nazis, just like "real" communists will never get any serious traction in the current USA. But their pseudo-existence is used by other groups to smear their enemies, which of course is fine with the poseurs. It just gives them more attention.ReplyDelete
As for "hate speech is not free speech," anyone who says that is not in favor of free speech.Replies
I think the Nazi's and KKK had terrible numbers and now they just got a lot of media attention that might appeal to the guttersnipes drawn to their ideology.Delete
"As for "hate speech is not free speech," anyone who says that is not in favor of free speech"ReplyDelete
This ^
Hateful speech is exactly the sort of speech that has to be protected, as once we start allowing it to be banned, who's speech is next. And who gets to decide who and what is banned.
I sure as hell don't trust the Government to make that decision and I sure as hell don't trust my fellow citizen to make that decision.
Hey Pundy - glad you found an Alt-Right crime that isn't a "false flag," you fucking cockwaffle.ReplyDelete
I guess it's awfully convenient you were able to scrub most of your political content from your board and your blog - RPG.net would be proud!

Michael Phelps Dives Into Subway Deal
Sandwich chain adds to expanding roster of athletes to promote its healthy message.
MILFORD, Conn. -- Move over Jared, here comes Olympic athlete Michael Phelps. Subway, the largest franchised restaurant in the world, entered a long-term partnership with the Olympic swimmer who won eight gold medals at this summer's Beijing games.
According to Brandweek, Subway has been bolstering its stable of athletes to promote its healthy message. Along with spokesperson Jared Fogle. Michael Strahan, Reggie Bush, Ryan Howard, Tony Parker, Laila Ali and Kimmie Meissner all have deals with Subway. Phelps' deal is an exclusive, meaning he cannot partner with other restaurant chains including McDonald's, which he had been linked to during the Olympics.
"It's always a good idea to use a celebrity," Ron Paul, president of Technomic, a foodservice consultancy in Chicago told Brandweek. "They own the healthy fresh positioning. [Phelps] fits right in with that. He's a healthy guy and so far, he has a good image."
Subway chief marketing officer, Tony Pace, said in a statement: "We knew Michael Phelps was a big fan of our sandwiches and we wanted to build on that with him to illustrate that Subway is a brand that can play a role in helping everyone—from elite athletes to weekend joggers—perform at peak levels and make healthier, smarter choices about food, whatever the activity."
Phelps has been in serious demand since the Olympics, partnering with Kellogg Corn Flakes, Rosetta Stone, Speedo and Visa. He's also hosted Saturday Night Live.
Subway spent $405 million on U.S. media last year, not including online initiatives, per The Nielsen Co.'s Monitor-Plus. For the first nine months of 2008, it doled out $337 million.

Crescent Row had a new lady move in last September and she is quite enchanting. Under My Spell Noelle promises to be a woody floral fragrance that will captivate you from the first whiff. Wood fragrances are my favourite so did Noelle's spell work on me? Read my review to find out.
My Review
- The golden packaging and textured print label makes Noelle gives the impression of a classy yet sassy animalistic fragrance. From sight alone I expect her to be enchanting.
- The metal cap just slides on and off but it does stay put so I can throw Noelle in my bag and know that there will be no accidental sprays or leaks. It's a sturdy unit and at just 30ml it can easily travel with you.
- While the official description of Noelle is a woody floral fragrance, my first thoughts on the scent is that of berries and wood. The floral hits me in the middle but it's a dark floral, not a pretty spring floral like you would expect from most floral fragrances.
- The strongest notes I can smell are orchid and violet in the middle, and at dry down the patchouli and black amber.
- Overall I think this is a sexy, dark scent that (like the imagery suggests) suits perfectly to a lifestyle behind velvet ropes. It's enticing and aspirational.
- I have been wearing this scent day and night but I definitely feel it suits the evening most appropriately. If you are looking for a fragrance to bring out your glamorous, sexy alter ego this may be the one you need.

Seriously, I found no need for rice. These are addicting little buggers, so good! Instead of the tabasco I just sprinkled a little cayenne in the beer with the cajun spice mix. Fantastic! Made for Think Pink Oct. 2011

I just ALWAYS get labelled 'cute' and I do know why.. it's just that my face looks that way.. but I want to look hot and be taken seriously for the attractiveness that I do have.
People now are like 'oh she's so sweeeet' bla bla. I'm sick of it. I have a 'different' look to me, but it's hard to describe since it's really subtle.
I want more of a sexy/ hot edge. Guys shouldn't be like 'she's so cute and innocent' because I'm just not !
Then again, I do want to look decent.
Does it have anything to do with make-up?
pale skin, brown eyes, long brown hair.. full lips, high cheekbones, bit of a receding chin (not much though)
Most Helpful Guy
Where clothes that compliment your figure, not just by fitting, but by showing off your assets. You are a girl, and because of that you already have an advantage. Guys already want to be with you, you just have to package it right. Being sexy or hot is not bad, all it means is that you are taking advantage of how beautiful you are. You are given a body that looks nice for a reason, do not hide it, show it off.
Wear clothes that are tight enough to be able to see all your figure, Leggings always make your legs and back look really good. A shirt that fits tightly enough that you are not blanketing your body. Shorter dresses always look hot without showing off to much, one that fits well (to form) or a summery dress. A tan makeup or face is always good.
None of these things are inappropriate but will make you look really hot. And if you are already doing these things and they do not work, do it a little more, a little shorter, a little tighter.
hope it helps

Is the iPad Mini going to kill the other small tablets?
0. phoneArena posted on 03 Oct 2012, 09:02
The rumors of a smaller iPad in the works are starting to get more and more intense. The leaked images that we see almost every day are getting more and more trustworthy, and overall, it's beginning to look like Apple is indeed going to launch the iPad Mini this year...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
62. nicholassss (Posts: 368; Member since: 10 May 2012)
He was aware but it took my nerddom to convince him they were worth looking in to. He's kind of a cheapskate, So i was surprised his first though was apple.
10. PermanentHiatus (Posts: 267; Member since: 22 Jun 2012)
$350 will possibly be the price point since the iPod Touch is already $300.
Apple dominated last year with 82% of the tablet sales, but now it's down to just 52%. How quickly things change.
36. PhenomFaz (Posts: 1236; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
Can someone help me find my way? I think I got lost...and entered the 'joke of the day' segment on PA :)
The only thing Apple iPad mini is good for killing are rats in the basement...whoa wait no one has rats in their basement anymore...ah well I guess its gonna end up being good for nothing then :)
11. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
Don't think so except for users who want to show off the apple tattoo ... more than use the device.
12. Peter27 (Posts: 233; Member since: 13 Jul 2012)
apps, apps, apps all I hear about is apps.
yes when I bought first tablet and phone I was going trough lot if apps but later you know what you really need and settle down. at the moment I use like 5 apps which you find anywhere - NotePad, calendar etc. the games always kept me entertained for 5 mins do I stopped checking any new ones.
all I use tablet now is to browse internet so I don't care if there is 1 million apps of the same thing.
if you buying iPad only because of apps then you are probably still child who is going to spend his time downloading apps.
if you are grown up you know what you need it for and I guarantee you find dame apps in Android, even Windows
15. Peter27 (Posts: 233; Member since: 13 Jul 2012)
in fact I don't need a single app.
just give me chrome like tablet that will load me straight into superfast browser that supports flash and all and I will be happy. therefore I think apps have no future on tablets as you can view full size webpages-it just needs to be faster like on a laptop.
13. theoak (Posts: 324; Member since: 16 Nov 2011)
It will be interesting how they price it.
With the iPad Touch ... and the WiFi version of the "new" iPad ... and the iPad 2 ...
My bet is that they will price it the same as the iPad 2, except the mini will have LTE.
I have to agree that it will be a huge hit.
14. wendygarett (unregistered)
nice article Ray... And please give me the iPad already :D
16. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
you missed an important factor Ray, what if apps and content from an iPad could not be used on the iPad Mini? for example is the iPhone 5 which is taller had 0 non apple apps that are compatible with the new screen, same will occur with the iPad Mini, It will probably have 0 apps at all yeah It will have the other content but it will lack apps, android on the other side was built so apps work anyways... and tablet apps will adapt to the screen too.... bu thats my opinion, maybe they create a method to have apps work, but this does not ensure they will work well
29. maxican16 (Posts: 364; Member since: 29 Sep 2011)
No you are correct IF the mini has a new resolution. If the resolution is unique from other ios products, all the apps will need to be recoded for this new resolution. apple really dropped the ball there. On top of that, this responsibility is shirked onto the shoulders of the devs, as apple will do nothing to recode the apps to fit. My guess is because of this, they will use a resolution that is not unique. If they don't... big mistake.
44. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
the claimed resolution is not a used one if im not mistaken as its fit to make it retina
51. maxican16 (Posts: 364; Member since: 29 Sep 2011)
Ouch. If I had to repay for each app on my new idevice just because it's recoded to fit each resolution, I'd be PISSED. 95% of the time, if I buy an app in the play store, I can install the same app on any one of my devices and it will automagically rescale.
I feel sorry for people buying into the apple ecosystem. Imagine paying for a navigation app... before ios6 and its weak attempt, this was necessary to have turn-by-turn navigation on your phone. I know because my friend paid $60 for his!! smh.
17. mukrenol (Posts: 92; Member since: 03 Sep 2011)
not really.. most already got some sort of a tablet
and the apple mini pad is still too wide to hold in one hand
as as some said... it's not likely be place the price point at $249 but more likely at $350
as far as brainwashing goes... 249 will be way too cheap for apple product which means it's 'cheap' and not 'fancy' or 'upper class'
30. maxican16 (Posts: 364; Member since: 29 Sep 2011)
Never thought about trying to hold it with one hand. Great point.
18. angelesmec (unregistered)
Depending on your platform preference.. Android or iOS..
23. Aeires (unregistered)
Nope, but for the first time, Apple will be competing against Apple. Honestly, why buy this when for just a smaller amount more you can get the full sized. We all know Apple isn't going to price range it in the Nexus 7/Kindle Fire range.
31. maxican16 (Posts: 364; Member since: 29 Sep 2011)
Agreed. I could be wrong, but I don't see this as a huge success. Where it gains, the ipads will lose. Amazon is just too powerful in this space, with Google a distant second.
33. gallitoking (Posts: 4721; Member since: 17 May 2011)
please stop it with the ipad mini killing the small tablets.. there are no other small tablets ok..
46. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
well down to 52% I kinda see there is a 48% of "smaller tablets" selling which is a huge change from last year "dominating" market and without t counting Nexus 7 or kindle so my bet would be around 50- for apple counting those on the Mix... No wonder they want to rush an iPad mini to the Mix in order to avoid being Second place on tablets by the end of 2012

Nexus7 all the way.......
39. KaiTech (Posts: 20; Member since: 20 Mar 2012)
What you forget to take under consideration is the iPod.
Apple can't price it low, because it will cannibalize iPod sales even further.
I'll make a bet it will run at $299+
41. downphoenix (Posts: 3165; Member since: 19 Jun 2010)
2 models, one at $299 for 8GB and $349 for 16GB.
42. jibraihimi (Posts: 770; Member since: 29 Nov 2011)
I think ipad mini will only be able to kill 'iPod touch', because it's basically a bigger 'ipod touch', and users of iPod touch will surely want to upgrade from small size to bigger size, so that they can get the use of two device from one.........................
43. alfadolla (Posts: 28; Member since: 14 Mar 2011)
It's two years too late....... boring
45. bonsly16 (Posts: 76; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
Realistically speaking, I see this being a huge sucess, specifically to the masses who can't afford a $600 iPad. Regardless of the fact that there are far better and more superior tablets out there with a better pricepoint, people are just oblivious to the truth as those tablets aren't able to penetrate the media and the consumer's awareness as much as the iPad. Sadly, most people I know are unaware that there are tablets you can buy without having an Apple logo on the back.
47. XPERIA-KNIGHT (unregistered)
"Well, unlike phones, where the Android handsets have pretty much caught up to Apple, Android tablets are still far behind. There are not enough apps, or magazines or other content that could entertain users. Apple's iTunes, on the other hand, is home to a very rich content ecosystem. Because of this, there's much more stuff you can do with an iPad Mini, at least from consumer standpoint, than with an Android tablet, that the idea of getting the more expensive device suddenly starts to make sense."
really?? wow is he being serious? So you mean to tell me the nexus seven isnt more entertaining than the same old restricted ipad?? not enough apps? that sounds like the typical ifan response my friend there are more than enough apps in the google play store and being that the nexus 7 is tegra based, that means it will have THE BEST gaming apps available! Sorry but this article is biased towards apple ..........yet again
48. jbryant624 (Posts: 12; Member since: 01 Oct 2012)
it will all boil down to the price, the apps and the service that ipad mini can bring. see why amazon has succeeded when others have failed before? 2 out of 3, price ($199) and service(amazon appstore)
50. bossmt_2 (Posts: 457; Member since: 13 Oct 2009)
Depends on pricing point. If it's 399 then I think nothing happens. If it's 249 then yeah it's got a good shot. Still think people will go for less expensive android devices.
Also I don't get the myth that Android tabs don't have apps. They do it's just that certain apps look better on certain screens. One of the things implemented in the past is the ability for an app to work on any size screen with the SDK they released for ICS (IIRC). And who's to say the iPad mini won't have the same issues where apps don't look as good? I'm hard pressed to find an app I use on my Galaxy Nexus that I can't use on my Xoom.

College Baseball: Huskies wipe out Stingers in big homestand opener
By Jacob Belgum
WILLMAR — The Duluth Huskies chased Willmar Stingers' starter Michael Murray in the third inning to beat the Stingers 10-1 Monday night at Bill Taunton Stadium.
Murray mowed down the first six batters he faced (one runner reached by way of error) but gave up a second-inning two-run homer to Duluth's Alex Wojciechowski to put the home team in a 2-0 hole.
Things only got worse for Murray in the third. After retiring one batter, he gave up four consecutive singles and a double before being relieved by Drew Jacobs. Jacobs inherited two base runners in scoring position and was unable to stop the Huskies rally, giving up a two-run double before getting out of the nightmarish five-run third inning.
Any attempt by Willmar to muster a comeback was futile, because their bats would not wake up. A lot of that had to do with their opponent, however, specifically the man Duluth sent to the hill.
In his first Northwoods League start, Duluth pitcher Chris Cervantes kept the Stingers' explosive offense in check. Cervantes surrendered only one earned run on two hits over seven innings. The Stingers briefly got to Cervantes in the bottom half of the third, but could only plate one base runner, Colton Bottomley, on an RBI single by catcher Kyle Perry. Cervantes wasn't perfect — he issued five walks — but his wild stuff was effective at keeping the Stingers' batters off balance for the entire night.
The Stingers will play a rematch against the Huskies 7:05 p.m. today at Bill Taunton Stadium. Ace pitcher Abe Bobb should provide a shot of adrenaline in his last start in a Stingers' uniform.
