I have a small wee habit of complaining about the difficulties of reviewing series books. And yet I still find myself saying "Oh yes, definitely, I'll review that! Love to!"
If you're already familiar with Jack Campbell's The Lost Stars series, a spin-off to his ever-longer-running The Lost Fleet sequence, you already know whether or not you're interested in reading this one. You also know what you can expect: Campbell is nothing if not predictable. If you're not familiar with this series, here isn't the place to start: The Lost Stars: Imperfect Sword is the third book in a series that began with The Lost Stars: Tarnished Knight and continued in The Lost Stars: Perilous Shield.

There are babes and then there are the babes on DDF Beauties. It's run by one of the most prolific pornographic producers and photographers in Central and Eastern Europe today. So if high quality is what you want, you will definitely get it here. With over a decade in the biz, these people have got it down pat.
DDFBeauties is a well-designed and beautiful-looking site. The colors and images are as glossy as a wet pussy. Whether you want to watch solo, hardcore, lesbian or sex-toy scenes, there's a top menu that will lead you to all you desire. Maybe you know the name of that hottie who kept you up too late last night. Consult the alphabetized model list to search for her among a few hundred other gals or use the "babe finder."
There are 2,230 videos to watch and the dates suggest daily updating. You can stream them in an embedded Flash player. Although it did suck that I couldn't skip ahead, make the player larger or adjust the volume. You can also download many of them as high-def Windows Media and AVIs. If you prefer, you can also enjoy them in good-quality MPEG clips. Not only are the stats high, but the scenes are also well-filmed. From the makeup to the clothes to the sets, everything is incredible.
The 2,230 picture sets don't disappoint either and they can be downloaded in Zip files and viewed in three sizes: small, medium and large. The large-sized pics are so clear that not only do you have to scroll across the screen just to see the whole thing, but you can also read the babes' lips and drool over every luscious fold of pussy flesh.
The site leaves nothing out in terms of information relating to the scenes. You will know how long it is, how many pictures are in each set and get a synopsis and trailer. Plus, there are links to the chicks' other performances and a small stat card with the basics, like boob size. The only area in which this site really loses marks is exclusivity. You'll notice quite a few episodes with a 1by day watermark on them, which is another site in the DDF Network.
They provide you with two membership options: either sign up for a monthly plan or you can pay per scene. I highly recommend DDF Beauties for all of your hot-babe needs.

Hi, I'm Chef Martin Smetana. Welcome to my culinary blog!
Today, we're talking about chestnuts!
Chestnuts are very popular in Europe, especially in Austria, where half of my family is from. As a child, I remember getting roasted chestnuts in the city of Wienna, Austria. They're called maroni, and they're roasted right in front of you. The whole place smelled so good!
First, some interesting facts about chestnuts:
- They are high in potasium and protein, and they are the only nuts containing Vitamin C!
- They are enjoyed in a variety of ways including: roasted, boiled, steamed, pureed, preserved, and candied.
- Chestnuts are in season from September through February; during the winter season, you can buy them in a local grocery store and roast them yourself.
- When buying chestnuts, choose the ones with nice, shiny, and firm brown shells without any bruises. If you'd like to store them for a few days, peal them first and store them covered in your refrigerator.
Now that we know a bit more about chestnuts, let's move on to the fun stuff…
- Cut a little "X" mark in the top part of the shell to prevent them from exploding in the oven – BE CAREFUL NOT TO CUT YOURSELF!
- Soak the chestnuts in cool water for about 20 minutes.
- While the chestnuts are soaking, preheat your oven to 400* F
- Pull the nuts from the water, dry them with a towel, and place them on a baking sheetpan with the "X" mark facing up.
- Roast the chestnuts for 20 minutes, then let rest for 5 minutes before pealing. THEY'RE STEAMING HOT WHEN DONE!
- Peal them and enjoy!
Some people like them plain like this, dipping them in a sour cream.
I like to use chestnuts in other daily recipes such as stuffed salmon with crab meat and chestnuts; potato gnocchi with wild mushrooms and roasted chestnuts; chicken and chestnut salad; chestnut hummus; spinach salad with candied chestnuts, etc.
Chestnut Hummus
Recipe from Executive Chef Eric Cartwright, University of Missouri
- 1 ½ cup Chestnut meats
- 1 ½ cup Parsnips, peeled, cut 1″
- 1 clove Garlic
- ¼ cup Fresh lemon juice
- 4 Tbsp. Butter
- ¼ cup Olive Oil
- 2 tsp. Cumin
- 2 Tbsp. Tahini
- t.t. Salt and pepper
- 2 Tbsp. Fresh parsley, chopped
- Place the chestnuts and parsnips in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and simmer until they are very tender, about 20 minutes. Drain in a colander, reserving 1 tablespoon of the cooking liquid.
- Transfer the chestnuts to the bowl of a food processor. Puree along with the reserved cooking liquid, garlic, lemon, butter, olive oil, and cumin until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and cool it to room temperature.
- Just before serving, drizzle the tahini over the top and garnish with chopped parsley.
Chestnut and Chicken Salad
Recipe developed by Julie Rhoads, UMCA
- 2 cups shelled raw chestnut meats
- 1 large can of cooked chicken, drained
- 2 stalks celery, chopped
- 1 roasted red pepper from jar, drained and chopped
- 2 tablespoons salad dressing or mayonnaise
- salt and pepper to taste
Prepare fresh chestnuts according to the instructions for "Removing Chestnut Meat from the Shell".
Boil shelled chestnut meats in chicken broth or water about 9 minutes or until meats remain slightly crunchy, drain. Let meats cool and then coarsely chop the meats.
Combine meats and other ingredients in a bowl and mix in small amounts of mayonnaise until a creamy but not runny consistency. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve salad as an appetizer spread with crackers or use as sandwich filling.
Chestnut Pesto
Recipe developed by Julie Rhoads, UMCA
- 1 cup shelled raw chestnut meats
- 1 cup packed fresh basil leaves
- 1 cup olive oil + extra olive oil if needed
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- 1-2 large clove garlic, peeled and finely chopped
- ¼ tsp. ground sea salt or regular salt (use more if needed)
Prepare fresh chestnuts according to the instructions for "Removing Chestnut Meat from the Shell".
Boil shelled chestnut meats in chicken broth or water about 9 minutes or until slightly crunchy, drain. Place the olive oil and basil leaves in a food processor and puree until a smooth consistency. Add the chestnut meats, parmesan cheese, garlic, and salt to the processor container and process until the mixture reaches the desired consistency of slightly chunky or smooth. Add additional small amount of olive oil if pesto is too thick and a moister consistency is desired.
For best flavor, refrigerate the pesto in a lidded container for at least 24 hours before using. For a variety of pestos made with Missouri-produced nuts to offer as appetizers, prepare separate batches using toasted pecan meats or black walnut meats. Spread pesto on crackers as an appetizer or mix with alfredo or white sauce for use in a pasta recipe.
Chestnut and Honey Spread
Recipe adapted from Ken Hunt, UMCA
- 3 cups shelled raw chestnut meats
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ to ½ cup soft tub margarine
- 1 tsp. salt
Prepare fresh chestnuts according to the instructions for "Removing Raw Chestnut Meats from the Shell."
Cook the shelled chestnut meats in the microwave until soft. Put the meats into a food processor or blender and add margarine, honey and salt. Process ingredients until smooth. May need to add a small amount of water during processing to keep from getting too thick. Serve on crackers as an appetizer or use as a spread for toast or bagels. Store in refrigerator.

I have wanted to find a hula hooping class for a long time, and it was very exciting to give it a try. The nice person from Chic Physique provided tips to get me going. They have a lot of other exciting classes, too!
Happy Autumn!

Backup quarterback David Carr will be returning for his third straight season with the New York Giants after re-signing to a one-year deal, the team announced on Tuesday.
Although David Carr attempted only three passes during the past two-season with the team, he gives the New York Giants an experienced backup behind starting quarterback Eli Manning. The move extends David Carr's second stint with the New York Giants, after played 2008 and 2009 behind Eli Manning as well.
The 32-year-old Eli Manning has started 135 consecutive regular-season games since Nov. 21, 2004.
David Carr drew some early interest in free agency from quarterback-needy teams. But David Carr either couldn't strike a better deal or didn't want to part ways with the New York Giants. Over the two combined stints with the New York Giants, David Carr threw just 37-for-61 passes for 426 yards, three touchdowns and one interception.
The 12-year veteran David Carr has a 78-57 starting record in regular season, while leading the Giants to two Super Bowl titles. But David Carr hasn't started a game since his departure from Charlotte in 2007.
As a first overall pick in the 2002 draft by the Houston Texans, David Carr predominantly remained the starter over the next five seasons, while completing 60 percent of his total passes for 13,391 yards, 59 touchdowns and 65 interceptions during that span. He was released following the 2006 season after struggling under center with the Houston Texans.
After yet another inconsistent season with the Miami Dolphins, he landed with the New York Giants. In between his first and second stint with the New York Giants, David Carr also spent a season with the San Francisco 49ers (in 2010).
The New York Giants already have quarterbacks Eli Manning, and Curtis Painter (who was signed on a future/reserves contract in January) on the roster. Although David Carr could have competition at for the New York Giants' No.2 quarterback spot, he's likely to land behind Eli Manning on the depth chart.

Lay Leader Program at Naval Submarine Base New London Receives CatholicPrayer Books
GROTON, Conn. (NNS) -- A Catholic priest who provides services to the Catholic community at Naval Submarine Base New London's Chapel of the Thames presented 12 "Sunday Prayer Books" to the Naval Submarine Base New London chaplain's office in Groton May 10.The donated prayer books will be provided to the lay leaders currently serving aboard attack submarines stationed in New London. "This will provide the lay leaders with the materials to be able to pray in union with the entire Catholic community on Sundays during their deployments," said Rev. Tom Hoar, who celebrates Catholic Mass Sundays and holy days at the submarine base.The books were donated to Hoar by the Father Murphy Council of the Knights of Columbus of Mystic. Hoar added that these books contain all of the readings and prayers for each Sunday that the Catholic community uses throughout the world."This gift is a wonderful demonstration of giving and speaks to the strong bonds between our Navy and local community," said Lt. Shaun Kennedy, Naval Submarine Support Center New London. "It also demonstrates their ongoing support for the spiritual lives and needs of the submariners during their deployments."Lay leaders on board a submarine provide religious services, in the absence of a chaplain, for their particular faith group. Kennedy added that Sailors considering volunteering for a lay leader program are required to complete the following criteria for appointment: Interview by the command chaplain or, if no command chaplain, a chaplain in the unit's chain of command; recommendation from a division officer, leading chief petty officer, or department head; approval by the member's ecclesiastical body; completion of the lay leader training program; recommendation from the interviewing chaplain to the commanding officer, and appointment in writing by the commanding officer.

The Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse is the fastest convertible in the world
Here's another early reveal from next month's Geneva Motor Show and this one is a beaut — The Bugatti Veyron Vitesse. The most powerful factory built roadster IN THE WORLD:
So, what sort of numbers does a convertible need to be the fastest in the world? 1184bhp and 1105lb ft. That's 197bhp and 183lb ft up from the cooking variety Veyron's 987bhp and 922lb ft. Or roughly one Golf GTI more…
Extra power's been teased out of the 16-cylinder engine by enlarging the four - FOUR - turbochargers and intercoolers. The chassis's also been beefed up to support the extra muscle.
No performance stats have been released yet, but if it's anything like the Veyron Super Sport, it'll hover around 2.5 seconds to 62mph. That's 0.2 seconds faster than the current Grand Sport. Pricing's equally mysterious, but we reckon it'll be in the region of $3.3M.

Baby friendly cafes?
- i
- Isabelofmtl Sep 25, 2012 05:50 AM
The list of cafes catering especially to moms and babies is short and I can find it elsewhere on the Internet. What I'm therefore asking is suggestions for cafes that accommodate strollers, breastfeeding, etc. These are the places moms naturally congregate in every neighbourhood, but since they're not advertised as mommy-baby cafes, I have a hard time finding new ones to try. My daughter is almost 3 months, so I have many months ahead to try these! Example: Toi et Moi on Notre-Dame.
Em Cafe on Parc and Bernard is very stroller and baby-friendly. Lots of moms go there after classes at the Y.
Juliet et Chocolat on St. Laurent and Prince Arthur- lots of moms+babies hang out there. Big space, easy to fit strollers, etc.
Byblos on Laurier E. is very kid-friendly. They have a box of toys for kids.
re: picklebird
Thanks, picklebird, this is exactly the type of thing I'm looking for!
there is this place in NDG : http://www.melonsetclementines.com
you can also hang out at the Coop down the street on sherbrooke as well, ( they have toys and books) but only a few tables
re: Arktik
i was just going to mention Melons et Clementines. Great place.
re: LoveGossipGirl
Awesome recommendation! This place has saved my sanity when trying to eat out and have a coffee avec bébé and I have met so many new mothers there. Thank you!
Hochecafé in Hochelaga, at the corner of Letourneux and Ontario is very baby-friendly. There's lots of room between tables to move a stroller around and they even have a changing table next to the washroom. Coffee's good too...
By the way, the Quebec charter of rights and freedoms gives you the right to breastfeed in any public place. Courts have consistently awarded damages around 1000$ against business owners who have asked people to stop breastfeeding in their place of business.
Most Cafés I went during my maternity leave were baby friendly: Lily and Oli, Café Saint-Henri, Parenthese (all on Notre-Dame not far from Toi et Moi). However, what I have found is that moms don't congergate in cafés.... I was usually the only mom there. If you live in that area, there is a group on Fcbk: Mamans de Verdun, Lasalle et environs. They usually organise activities with babies...
re: jojomtl
I also thought of Toi et Moi as the mommy cafe in my neighbourhood (Little Burgundy/St-Henri) because I'd see moms with strollers there all the time. Now that I have a stroller & baby of my own, I can say that, although they have a ramp, and the staff were super accommodating to a group of 3 moms with strollers the other day, having 2 heavy non-automatic doors at the entrance makes getting in REALLY complicated, even with someone helping to open the doors. Aso, there is no change table in the bathroom. Luckily, my stroller seat flattens out so I could use that, but if I was using my carrier, I might have had to change the baby right on the table, kind of gross.
I noticed other potential spots in the neighbourhood fail to accommodate not just strollers, but people with wheelchairs or motorized scooters. The new Java U doesn't have an automatic door and there is a step to get in. Starbucks on Notre-Dame has an automatic door, but there is also a step. For those reasons, I haven't bothered trying them, so I don't know if they have change tables in the bathrooms.
re: Isabelofmtl
Yes, it's only since I've started walking around with a stroller that I've noticed how inaccessible many places are, especially in the Plateau/ Mile-End. Steps with no ramp, and those dang double doors make life a lot more difficult for those on wheels! Also, booth seating with fixed tables is very difficult to breastfeed in.
re: jojomtl
Café Expressions on avenue Mont-Royal (east of Saint-Denis) is very baby friendly. This cafe carries Toi et Moi coffee and it is a nice, relaxed atmosphere. There is a change table in the washroom. Café Rico on Rachel (just opposite La banquise and Parc Lafontaine) is as well, and they roast their own coffee. Both places have little "cove" area with toys for kids. Café Expressions even has high chairs--perhaps Café Rico does too although I haven't checked.
Thanks everyone, keep 'em coming! My mom friends and I are going to try them all! :)
For anyone else's information I wanted to say that, although Parentheses bills itself as a mommy-baby cafe, I do not find it "baby friendly". There is not enough room to manouevre a stroller between the tables, and many of the chairs are low and have arms, which kind of traps you in them so you don't have the ease of movement necessary for reaching a baby in a stroller, for example. Also: $8 for pre-packaged salad greens is ridiculously over-priced.
Juliette and Chocolat doesn't have a ramp or an automatic door BUT the staff is super friendly and helpful. They held open the door on the way in and out for us. There is one step to get in.
re: Isabelofmtl
Hi--if you like Greek food Ilios on Saint-Denis (west side of Saint-Denis south of Duluth) is such a friendly place and has amazing food. The owner is simply lovely and welcoming with babies and children. They serve coffee and all sorts of Greek pastries including a chocolate covered baklava that is really the best way of regaining energy after a long day of chasing toddlers. It is downstairs so I usually go with baby in a sling but so worth the stop if you are in the area.
re: deborahm
Not to veer off from café themed thread but I was at La petite marche for brunch yesterday. It's massive, tonnes of tables and was packed with babies and kids and families of all ages. Standard brunch fare, generously portioned. However, it was the number of infants and toddlers there that made me think you might want to try it out if looking for a brunch place. On Saint-Denis north of avenue Mont-Royal across from the National Theatre School.
re: deborahm
Tried this place last weekend and, while I enjoyed discovering it (thanks debirahm!) I wouldn't call it baby-friendly, at least not by the standards i set out in the initial post. There are multiple stairs to get in, and although it's large, the tables are packed tightly so you can forget about bringing a stroller. Luckily, i wore my baby. They do have high-chairs. Didn't check if they had a change table in the bathrooms.
re: Isabelofmtl
Thanks Isabelofmtl for feedback. I think you're right and sorry as I veered off a little to suggesting places that are welcoming toward babies or at least family oriented. I've had to change my standards a little bit on this--particularly in the Plateau given the crampedness and density of this area. Was at Aux Vivre for brunch last Sunday right at 11 when they open and there was room for my jogging stroller and there were tonnes of families with babies. I don't consider it the most spacious nor might if meet your original criteria as a place where mothers will hang out but it was accessible, good brunch, and relaxed atmosphere with a lot of children in the 0-4 age range.
There's a new cafe in what used to be a video store at the corner of Decarie and NDG avenue. LOTS of room to move around but the stairs to the basement are pretty exposed and there's nowhere to change diapers (this will probably change in the future). The food is really good and they have a wide range of teas. The owner is super-friendly and considering trying to have some kind of child-friendly activity in the morning.
It's not what you were asking for but I run a playgroup Tues/Thurs from 10am - noon with coffee, bread and fruit. We're at the Unitarian Church (5035 de Maisonneuve) and if you decide to check it out don't let the locked door deter you, there's a small white button on the intercom, press it and someone will answer the door.
re: mellybean
Hi mellybean, may I ask what the name of that café is on the corner of Decarie and NDG Ave?
I live in the area and would like to discover a new place!
Also, for mommies with kids, there is a playgroup in the basement of the church (you do not need to be a member of the church) on NDG Ave and Marcil. It goes from 10:00 to 11:30 every Tuesday and Wednesday and you can make a donation of 3.00 and they offer coffee, tea and some snacks for the kids. I went twice already and was able to chat with other moms while my 5 months old daughter was playing in the saucer and interacting with other babies :)
re: blissfulmarie
Yes! this place is a great spot to meet other moms (or, nannies!) and let your kids run wild. Be warned that the dreaded NDG gastro runs rampant here (this is not food related, but just cause of of all the toddler germs!) still worth it!
re: blissfulmarie
I think it's called VieVo now but the sign over the door is still the one for VideoShoppe or something like that. It's the last place on the block, a few doors over from Orange Café.
There's one big step to get in but I think that's it and certainly lots of room inside so strollers aren't a problem.
If anyone wants to email me I can point you towards a couple more NDG (and nearby) playgroups but I don't think this is the right place to post about them. :) firstname.lastname@example.com
Hi Isabel and other moms,
I discovered ChocoMacaMousse this summer and just reviewed it here (http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/878159). The owners were "vraiment genial," which really sets the baby-friendly tone. Delicious chocolates and patisserie in a beautiful atmosphere. I have to admit, I didn't bring my toddler, but I don't remember any stairs/steps, and I think there was only one door to struggle with. Congratulations and happy eating!
There is a new coffee shop on Verdun (intersection Desmarchais where Cafe Yema used to be). They have very comfortable chairs, including a rocking chair for breastfeeding and bouncers for the baby. They also have a rocking horse, an exerciser, a tricycle, a couple of baby mats with mobiles and some high chairs, booster chairs and toys.
We had coffee that tasted good and cake that tasted like it was from the grocery store. She does have homemade items like quiche, muffins, sandwiches and crepes which I would have tried if DH had not ordered the cakes before we sat down. My kids are past that stage, but if baby is with you, she has jarred baby food and fruit compote pouches.
She did turn on the TV the moment we walked in but since we were the only people there we asked her to turn it off and she graciously complied. I don't know if she always has the TV on or not, but I am mentioning it here for people who are avoiding TV in the first two years of baby's life as the AAP and other pediatric organizations recommend.

Amazon's revamped Kindle lineup is failing. We T-GAAP-ers figured this would be the case, but it's about to show up in spades this December quarter. The WSJ is reporting Apple has ordered 10 million iPad mini's from their contract manufacturing partner/s, double that of Kindle Fire HD orders.
Amazon is banking heavily that their Kindle Fire HD $199 hook price will deliver volume sales, but that's highly unlikely to materialize. Apple has shown little interest in playing to the lowest common denominator market, and is likely to deliver the iPad mini at $399, while the older iPad 2 stays in the lineup at the same price point until year's end to deliver more consumer choice.
Apple delivered a big hint as to the the mini pricing during the September iPhone and iPod event, when Apple iOS Marketing Chief, Greg Joswiak, revealed the iPod touch starting at $299. The $299 iPod touch leaves no room for the iPad mini to do the same. Apple is making a very deliberate decision to keep their hardware pricing consistent across the board, while letting it's competition give away low-end tablets, with the bet they'll make it up with content sales.
Many in the media are likely to balk at the $399 price point, but the product will be far superior to what is in the mini tablet space in every way. Construction, design, screen, cameras, speed, OS and apps, the iPad mini will truly have everything for those wanting less than a full-sized tablet experience in iPad or a lower price point.
Come January Apple will set the full sized tablet market on fire, with a dramatically revamped 10" iPad, setting the course of the tablet market firmly on it's own tracks.

It's one of those Saturday mornings where listening to Blondie leads me to reading archived LIFE magazine articles about Linda Ronstadt doing so much coke she had to have her nose cauterized twice in the early 70s and eventually stumbling upon this silent film from 1916, The Mystery of Leaping Fish.
Starring Douglas Fairbanks Sr, written by Anita Loos (Gentlemen Prefer Blondes), DW Griffith (Birth of a Nation) and Tod Browning (Freaks) it's a slapstick comedy about a drug addict detective named Coke Ennyday.

A Craigsville man pleaded guilty Friday morning to molesting a young girl. Shaun Bartley, 35, will serve 15 years for two counts of aggravated sexual battery.
The Augusta County Sheriff's Office arrested him in May after the 10-year-old female victim came forward.
He will be on supervised probation for 40 years and when this time is up, he cannot have unsupervised contact with minors. Bartley's attorney believes the sentence struck an appropriate balance."The agreement that the commonwealth reached with the defendant served the interest of justice and preserved what we could of Mr. Bartley's freedom for the future," said defense attorney Frankie Coyner.Investigators say the abuse started about two years ago.

Staff service Cleanliness
The staff was very friendly and helpful.
We got a bigger room with Kitchen, but all utensils were missing. The iron was dirty and almost ruined our clothes. We asked for a new one and they did provide it. Whenever we asked for something, they did provide it, but it is pretty annoying to pay a premium price and have to ask for simple things that should be there in the first place (it made us feel bad, too)
It had a great location and people were very nice. The room was great and very confortable.
The decoration of the whole Hotel was not as expected. The dinning room was poorly decorated and breackfast was ordinary. The room, apart from some random wallstickers, it was not decorated at all!

- Publisher: Capcom
- Release Date: Jun 3, 2013
- Also On: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
- Summary: Imagine Neo-Paris, 2084. Personal memories are now digitised, bought, sold and traded like commodities. The last vestiges of privacy and intimacy have been extinguished in what feels like a logical progression of the explosive growth of social networks at the start of the 21st century. The citizens themselves have given in to this surveillance society in exchange for the comfort only smart technology can provide. This memory economy transfers immense power over society to just a small group of people. Remember Me is a third-person action adventure in which players assume the role of Nilin, a former elite memory hunter with the ability to penetrate people's minds and steal or even alter their memories. The authorities, fearful of her knowledge and skills arrested Nilin and wiped away her memory. After her escape from prison, Nilin embarks on a mission to recover her identity, helped by her last and only friend. This search for her past leads to her being hunted by the very people that created this surveillance society.… Expand

Jun 5, 2013It's one of the games that got me excited because its story is intertwined with the gameplay and with a philosophical view on our reality. Highly suggested for people that enjoy stories in any form. [June 2013]
Jun 6, 2013You get a fascinating vision of the future, in which you have to fill a few gaps yourself, if you don´t want to fall into its holes. But at the core it is a very solid story, entertaining, with a few fresh ideas – something that can't be said about every work in this genre – and would not have been misplaced in one of the books by Gibson/Sterling. As it is, I experienced Remember Me first as this story and only second as a game of decent climbing-passages and solid brawling, which I enjoyed more as a nice form of diversion.
Jun 3, 2013In general terms, Remember Me works, but it's extremely easy and the new ideas and mechanics don't offer a remarkable addition. We would love to have a sequel in which all these issues are polished and fixed because the universe Dontnod has created is full of possibilities.
Jun 13, 2013Overall, Remember Me is just another graduate of Luc Besson's Style Over Substance Academy. It looks amazing and manages to be convincing in minor cutscenes, but the issues it raises are handled superficially and every problem is ultimately solved through violence.
Jun 14, 2013A society with lost privacy is doomed. Unfortunately, this poetic message is not enough to make an entertaining game. Remember Me needs one more instalment to enhance its gameplay.
Jul 9, 2013A game with great potential, great setting and great music. However, it's knocked down by its incomplete implementation of the original ideas and its frustrating battle system. [Issue#231]

Jun 7, 2013*UPDATE!
Four days ago I eagerly awaited the release game, and now that it is over I can say without any reserve that this is a game you DO NOT WANT TO MISS. I'll put the ending first for those who don't want to read my entire discourse. I rate "Remember me" as an 8/10, however I've decided to keep my official score as a 10 to help tip the scales. The simple fact is that as valuable as metacritic is, these scores can be the life or death of a game. The same way they can destroy or make a movie, or actor on stage. How many people will skip this game, simply because its not an 8 or higher? "Remember Me" is well crafted, it deserves to be played. DONTNOD Entertainment deserves whatever profits they can get, hopefully enough to encourage more games if not a sequel, which I personally would like to see.
So what games can I compare to "Remember me" to? In my opinion it plays like an assassin's creed warped in a deus ex with a twist (Memories rather than augmentations) The story? Fantastic! Not as good as AC2, or bioshock 1, but better than the ends of either Farcry 3, or deus ex. The combat system was one of genius; and quite frankly something I've been waiting a long time to see. It does have its downfalls eg. the boss battles are repetitive, but unlike AC once I learned this combat system there was never a moment where I had to get my bearings, where combat was too fast, or I was too surrounded. When you add that I was able to, with some restrictions, mold the combos it really puts the player in the action. I stopped worrying about which button at which time and simply enjoyed the game.
Graphics in "Remember me" are a delight to behold. When my computer reported that the game was running in 32bit, and directX 9 I didn't want to believe it. Of course thats the beauty of the unreal engine, from the moment I saw they used it I knew I'd like the game. I do wish they'd used directX 11, I do understand why they didn't but 11 has been out for a while now, and with top end graphic cards now costing half a grand for a single unit.
About the linear qualities of the game. I really do feel this was ultimately the downfall of "Remember Me", and it is why I rate it at 8/10. Below I did list some bugs I experienced, but these were all a minor inconvenience, and could be either limited to my computer or fixed with a patch. Many of the story elements of this game depended on it being linear, I understand that and enjoyed the story. However I believe that there was a lot of wasted potential, especially with the memory remixes in which I wish there was more of. Again I look forward to a sequel.
Errors in "remember me" include: 1) a few subtitle errors, 2) what appear to be some graphical glitches, like a bird stuck in place, and falling through the floor twice. One level appeared all red till I reloaded. 3) The camera is not completely free, it does fight you quite a bit in certain areas.
END OF UPDATE (Original post below)
I would like to start by stating that I am not an avid video game reviewer, and in fact this is the first I've posting on this website. However, I do like many users look at metacritic scores to "tip the scales" when it comes to buy and judging games. I like many that have already posted, am trying to stop this game from dying before/at release, due to negative/low score. I have only just started this game, and will edit both my score and review later.
To start: The game runs smooth and so far flawless on my system with AMD FX6150, and ATI 6950HD. The music and sounds along with the animation in the menu immediately draw you in. It is clear in just starting it up, like hitman: absolution main menu, that some love went into crafting this game. Options for graphical changes were limited, but in no way hindered either my system, or (from what I can tell) the game in running smoothly.
Upon starting the intro the game loaded extremely fast especially for an HDD, the beginning immediately drew me into the story, my favorite part, and I once again I note care in the games design by a immersive sounds, lighting, sound effects, and small added details to the character's & NPCs clothing, and level design.
This is about as far as I can go so far, but If you read this, I urge you not to go by the current score. I will update this post as I continue to play the game. I am giving it a 10 atm to help balance until I can determine a fair score.… Expand
Jun 29, 2013This game is just awesome. Since it was available to pre-purchase it, I couldn't wait to hold this game in my hands.
Now, that I've played it a couple of hours I can say it again. This game is absolutely worthly to play.
It contains a great story, great music and a pretty well gameplay.
Of course, it's not perfect. The camera-handling with the controller (it's terrible on the PC with keyboard and mouse for my taste, with controller it's way more likely to handle) could be better here and there. The terrain where you could go in the game could be a little bit bigger, but that's all I can criticise. Otherwise this game shows that you can make a great game even as your first game of the studio (DONTNOD Entertainment) and without those damn fire-weapons and stuff like that (which is now in about 70% of the new game-IPs) just with a great character design and a cool fighting-system.
It shows some great new ways to play a game, and I really hope that the harsh critic of some guys here and the not that good sales of the game won't ruin a sequel to this, which fixes the critic-points of the first game and shows an even better experience for the player. If Remember Me 2 will come, I'll buy it. Definentaly.… Expand
Jun 8, 2013Overall the game has a very good story and some interesting mechanics, however it falls short in the combat system. The combat system revolves around performing combinations and avoiding attacks and little along the lines of strategy or skill. As long as you can hit the dodge button in time you will not get hit at all. Also the world is fairly interesting but you barely get to explore it, you are funneled along a route with little incentive to actually explore. The collectibles in this game will get you more health, which is unnecessary, or it gets you more focus, which allows you to use your more powerful skills.
Beyond that the story line is great and the underlying concepts are sound. If they had done more along the lines of remixing memories beyond the 4 times you get to do it in-game it would have boosted the game a little higher.… Expand
Jun 10, 2013Engaging, interesting and nicely put together. The underlying story makes for a slightly linear experience and this is more than compensated for by the feel and fine touches of the overall environment and setting. It is also nice to play a game that is not North American in that the differences in culture and value show through the choices and interactions you have. A little too console in controls for me and some of the combos are not easy to understand/execute. All said, most enjoyable and I expect to be replaying it over the next while.… Expand
Jun 30, 2013I was really anxious to play this game. I don't usually find out about games before they're released, but this one was different. I thought that the story seemed interesting, and so I got the game on it's release date. Right of the back I noticed it's unoriginal graphics. It is powered by the Unreal engine, but I was expecting something much more ground-breaking. The cut-scenes look lifeless, the voice actors give the characters very cliche personalities. As for the game-play, it's very monotonous. I loved remixing dreams, it's a very great, fresh idea. I would've loved the game to be based more on that. Sadly, it is overshadowed by dull combat mechanics, even on normal, I didn't have a challenge because of the healing pressens. The game tried to go for an Arkham City kind of game-play, but all that fails because of the enemies feeling like logs that you hit with sticks that are sketched over to look like arms and legs. I also had a few glitches playing with the controller, where the game would just send me in one direction, but I guess that's just a battery issue.
The game doesn't provide an interesting story, but rather goes the safe way. It has very forgettable characters, and it doesn't make you care about Nillin. A very cliche story and monotonous game-play makes this game miss out on a spot in anyone's top 10 games of the year list, but it's still a fun game. Not really worth the 40 euro price tag though. 7/10… Expand
Jan 6, 2014I have to give this game 0 points since it's completely unplayable. I'm stuck on the control tutorial, I am being asked to use the mouse/right stick to look around but no mater how much I look the game just wont move on. It's broken therefore ZERO points.… Expand

Samsung has a golden Galaxy S4, but it's no copy of Apple's champagne iPhone 5s
Summary: Samsung has been accused of slavishly copying Apple, but the golden Galaxy S4 predates Apple's own gilded device.
Samsung is promoting a 'Gold Edition' Galaxy S4 with, as the name suggests, a golden backplate.
The company posted a picture of the device on its SamsungMobileArabia Twitter account yesterday, which some have pointed out is a fortnight after Apple launched its champagne coloured iPhone 5s — perhaps suggesting Samsung has a "me too" device on its hands.
But Samsung's golden Galaxy S4 is not a response to Apple's iPhone. Samsung launched the Gold Edition in the United Arab Emirates on 27 August, a Samsung spokesperson told ZDNet.
The device was developed especially for well-heeled consumers in Middle Eastern market, who can also buy a golden BlackBerry Q10 for 3,439.00 AED ($932).
According to the spokesperson, Samsung has launched the Gold Edition in other other countries and will continue to expand its availability in the region.

DogFunk does not seem to be interested in customer satisfaction. I will not be purchasing from them again because they stink like DOG SHIZZ...FOR REALS.
Dogfunk lies about their inventory
Member since
I've tried purchasing ALL of Dogfunk's inventory on this item multiple times. While their inventory has remained the same over several days while I have placed several orders, they continue to tell me their inventory updates almost instantly.
I have contacted them multiple times regarding this issue and they seem to not take this too seriously. I no longer trust Dogfunk, their inventory, or their sales people.

The Vatican's Worst Nightmare Now Unfolds

Book Video Trailer and Press Release for Finishing the Mysteries of Gods and Symbols.
LATEST PRESS RELEASES: - http://www.sevenstarhand.org/press.html
The head in sand pose may temporarily hide danger from the ostrich, but the hungry lion has no misconceptions about the truly dire nature of that bird's predicament. The truth has escaped its cage, and gone on a rampage, seeking long overdue justice.
Here is comprehensive proof that the symbolism of many ancient texts, canons, and concepts is an advanced and extremely ancient spiritual and philosophical technology that predates all extant religions and mystery schools.
Consequently, here is proof, beyond disproof, that all three so-called "Faiths of Abraham" are purposeful deceptions. Accordingly, related esoterica, mystery schools, and the New Age are rife with error caused by undue reliance upon the assertions of these religions and their leaders.
Throughout this series, I present verifiable proof that ancient sages and prophets opposed religion and wisely never trusted religious leaders. As comprehensive validation of this, they redundantly encoded stunning proof of why throughout pivotal symbolic narratives and related concepts.

My intention here is to reveal long-hidden information, not to make money. You can download the E-book for FREE. If you want to understand the truth about some absolutely pivotal details, all you have to do is read and grow wiser. You will grasp how I feel about money, very quickly.

Frequently asked questions
Deposits must be mailed to:
Yakima Valley Community College (Attention: Cashier's Office)
P.O. Box 22520
Yakima, WA 98907
Please note: Non-YVCC applicants will be assigned a student ID # following receipt of required documents. Please wait for assigned SID before sending in your deposit.
Required Immunizations:
YVCC requires certain immunizations prior to admission to help protect your health and the health of all our students.
You have a right to refuse the required immunizations based on religious, personal, or medical reasons.
Recommended Immunizations:YVCC encourages all students to obtain:
Meningococcal Meningitis Vaccine:Meningococcal meningitis is the leading cause of life-threatening meningitis in young adults in the U.S. It strikes about 3,000 people each year with 300 deaths. College students account for about 125 cases and 15 deaths. The infection is spread by air droplets like the flu and has flu-like symptoms initially. Symptoms can progress rapidly and lead to shock or death in hours. The risk for young adults ages 18-23 is 1.5 in 100,000. College students are not at higher risk than non-students, except for freshmen, particularly those living in residence halls (4.6 in 100,000). Meningococcal disease usually peaks in late winter and early spring. The disease can easily be misdiagnosed as something less serious, because symptoms are similar to the flu. The most common symptoms include high fever, headaches, neck stiffness, confusion, nausea, vomiting, lethargy and/or rashes. Anyone with similar symptoms should contact a physician immediately.
The vaccine is safe and available through your own doctor. Side effects are uncommon and usually mild. The vaccine will cause immunity in about 90% of individuals but is ineffective against one stereotype of meningococcus which causes about 30% of the cases. The vaccination lasts three to five years and costs approximately $65.
General immunization has not been recommended since the incidence of meningococcal disease is low. However, the American College Health Association recommends that parents and students, especially freshmen and dormitory residents who want to reduce their risk of disease, consider the benefit of vaccination. Students without a spleen or who are immunodeficient should consider vaccination.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact your local health department or the Yakima County Health Department.
The residence hall at Yakima Valley Community College offers full kitchens on each floor. The kitchen is equipped with a stove, refrigerator, microwave, tables and chairs. Cooking and eating utensils are not provided. We have found from experience that this room is very popular in that students can cook there, eat in a large area with friends and then study.

We do not have food service in the building. Food service is available on the main campus in the HUB cafeteria. You can check with them regarding menus and serving hours.

If your roommate moves out of the room, you will be allowed to stay in the room without a roommate and pay the appropriate single room rate, or secondly you will be offered the opportunity to find a person in a similar situation and become roommates.

How to realize the following Situation
13 March 2009 at 5:12am
I have a Projekt, which is build for a group of dentist, with a regular CMS Structure.
Domain for Example: dentistgroup.de
But there is one important Feature:
The Admin of the Page has to add a dentist who belongs to the group.
For example the Name of the Dentist is "Dr. Müller".
There should be a profile Page with some Details of his dental office.
The Page should be Available trough the Pagenavigation AND by typing in the domain: dentistgroup.de/dr_mueller
IMPORTANT: the Name of the doctor should be the $_GET Variable and "äüöß" written as "ae ue oe and ss".
To create new CMSFields for the Input is one thing.
But my Question is, should i create up to 100 Pages in the Backend as new Pages, or one Page in the Backend which retrieves the Data from the Database.
So there could be a count of Pages between 20 and 120 or 1 Page with a relation to the Database.
What do you think would be the easiest way and the way with the best Performance?
Thank you for Statements.

Help make it easier for other Avvo users to choose the right lawyer by sharing your experience with this attorney. It's fast, simple, and safe.
Lawyers: Use the Peer Endorsements section to provide input about other attorneys.
Working with Karen was a pleasure she was very sensitive to my needs as a client and beyond. Karen was very determined and unrelenting when it came to handling my case. After such a long time and several other lawyers I finally found someone who would fight for me and my cause. So many other lawyers are more concerned with the easy route and Karen met things head on with enthusiasm. I will certainly continue to use Karen when needed and would absolutely recommend her to anyone.
I have referred several cases to Karen Authement over the years. I have found her to be extremely diligent, hard-working and honest. Karen knows how to get results and is very sensitive to the client's goals. I would strongly recommend Karen in civil litigation, personal injury or any other trial related matters.

Over the past year, the gamut of various indicators/studies that have shown gold stocks to be "generational buys" have been numerous. Another very rare feat that we are in the process of accomplishing is the Y-O-Y (Year over year) 52 week rate of change of < -50%. Having an individual security decline by such an amount is not uncommon but for an entire sector to be down that much is indeed rare. Of course, there are no guarantees that history will repeat itself but investing is all about probabilities that are in your favor. Most certainly such an approach does not provide with the adrenalin rush of momentum trading, however if one steps back and looks at the entire picture (fundamental/sentiment/technical) the probabilities clearly show that we are VERY CLOSE to another advance of relevance.
(Click images to enlarge)
The HUI index has been in existence since 1994 and this is the 4th time that such an event has transpired (Yes, we are only on Tuesday and by Friday this study may be for naught, but it is worth noting at the current time given the host of variables arguing for a favorable outcome here, including the current models' buy signal). The other three times were as follows:
Week of August 24, 1998:
This was the lowest weekly close. Prices advanced quickly, in 5 weeks' time we recorded an advance of 53% and after a 6 month period prices had settled back to only a 4% gain from the inception of the -50% reading in the ROC. As is evident in the chart above the lows did hold for over a year before succumbing to more downside.
Week of October 2, 2000:
At the onset, prices continued to retreat, with a maximum drawdown on a weekly close basis of 15%. Within the 6 month window, prices recorded their maximum gain after 22 weeks for the first -50% reading with a gain of 36%. Of course this period also marked the secular low and was followed by multiyear advances of several hundred percentage points.
Week of October 20, 2008:
The second chart speaks for itself as you will note this marked the low for gold stocks following the financial crisis of 2008. There was no drawdown from a weekly close basis and prices recorded a 94% advance after 21 weeks, with significant more gains after the 6 month window.
Going back in history, the uniqueness of this phenomenon within the gold stock sector also exhibited similar results. Using the Barron's Gold Mining Index as a proxy, from 1938 until 1994 (when the HUI took over the analysis), the 52 week rate of change recording a reading of < -50% had taken place on 4 different occasions. A brief synopsis of the four occasions follows:
Week of May 21, 1940:
At the onset, prices experienced a 4% drawdown and then proceeded to gain 40% over the next 25 weeks. Similarly to the 1998-1999 period, prices went on to break the lows about a year and a half later where they formed a final bottom. Although the ensuing 10-20 year period produced reasonable gains for gold stock investors, the "play" was still the general equity market since we had begun a secular bull market unlike 1999/2000 where the opposite held true.
Week of December 16, 1969:
Another major low signaled by the extreme reading in the 52 week ROC. The weekly closing level was the lowest in the decline and thus produced no drawdown. Prices advanced by 52% within the first 26 weeks.
Week of August 3, 1976:
This was the period that led to the final low following the devastating bear market of 1974/1976. The -50 reading was a couple of weeks too early (similarly to OCT 2000) and produced a drawdown of 16% (again a similar amount to 2000). The ensuing advance was rather slow with a 29% advance after 18 weeks and was followed by a lengthy period of sideways action (once again, very similar to 2001). Unlike the 2000/2001 period where prices did catapult higher after the 9/11 bottom, the 1976/1979 period was one characterized by a very slow advance until of course the parabolic rise of late 1979 and into 1980.
Week of June 15, 1982:
Once again the -50% reading was recorded at the absolute low week of the preceding decline. Of all the signals before and after this one, the 1982 example produced the fastest and best gain in the shortest period of time; a 138% gain in 26 weeks. Those highs of 1983 however were not to be seen again until 2006 as the secular bear market took hold. Nevertheless, the rally of the June low was one for the ages.
Based on our sample study, if we assume the HUI closes the week around current levels (240), a 15% drawdown will take us down to the June lows. Even a muted advance (25-30%) from current levels takes us up to 300 and above the August highs which should bring in technical buying. Longer term, if my assessment of a secular advance still being in the picture holds true, more than superior gains lie ahead.

Just as Mickey Rourke described his final moments with his beloved 18-year-old Chihuahua, the grieving actor looked up at the sky to gather his thoughts -- you know, since all dogs go to Heaven.
RIP Loki.
Sorry for your loss. Some times you feel they are the only ones who real love you.
Mickey Jesus died for your sins. Accept His death and give Him your heart.
That is how to be with your precious baby again.
He is the only way.
I am praying for you!
Sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved little Loki Mickey. Some of our pets are like family.
Mickey used to be so handsome in 91/2 weeks! What the hell happened?
RIP Loki
Please read the Rainbow Bridge Poem. You can find it on the internet. So sorry for your loss, truly
I feel sorry for him that dog meant so much to him I know how he feels Im so close the my doggies :( but hes sooooooo lucky she lived so long most people arent that lucky to have their pet live that long I hope my babies live that long :) RIP Loki
I watched the TMZ segment on Mickey and his dog's passing last night. As a dog owner for life and having to deal with their passing, I feel for Mickey and his loss. I was completely disgusted by the coverage that TMZ did. I watch TMZ because it can be entertaining at times, but there is nothing entertaining about denegrading someone for being a pet lover and having a heart. TMZ should issue a real apology to Mickey. I say real because in the past their apology is worse than the initial offense.
I don't watch your show, just visit your website TMZ. Someone posted that you guys were laughing at Mickey or making fun of him? You guys are sick to do that. I know it's all fun and games to make fun of celebs...most of them deserve it. But Mickey's dog was his family. Show a little f*cking respect. This is a sad time for him and you should either give him your condolences or leave him the f*ck alone right now. Disgusting.
I would love to see Mickey get the Oscar Sunday night. Unfortunately, Heath Ledger overdosed on pills and that makes him more worthy. Oh, well.
How sad. I feel for Mickey Rourke...I could not imagine losing my pets. My oldest dog Joey is 12. Still hope I get alot more years with him!!! RIP,Loki!! "When a dog offers you his heart,accept it with a smile...for his love will last a lifetime,which is such a little while".
"she waited for me" , mickey made me f***ing bawl
I also hope and pray that Mickey wins the Oscar............................but, in hollyweird, it is ok to fill youself up with rx pills and overdose!
Now, there are some REAL morals!
People should be as loyal and loving as dogs.
Oh yeah...heres the rest of that poem. This is for anyone who has ever lost a beloved pet:
"When a dog offers you his heart,accept it with a smlie.
For his love will last a lifetime,which is sucha little while.
When a dog offers you his heart,take it gladly and with pride.
For he will be a faithful friend,ever by your side.
A dog loves you because you're you,not for how you speak or what job you do.
You can be short,tall,thin or fat,or ugly as sin...he doesn't care about that.
A dog knows if you're good or bad,he can see inside your soul.
When he decides you are ok,to earn your love is his main goal.
When you're sad,he'll comfort you,and kiss away each tear.
You may even wake up in the morning with a cold nose in your ear.
When eventually the time comes,and the lights in his eyes dim,
A new star will shine in Heaven in rememberance of him.
You will gaze up at the night sky,and you will hear him say:
"I'm so glad you were my human,we will meet again someday."
So if this poem has caused a tear to fall,thats because you love the dog who is giving you his all.
Go travel on together,happi;y...paw in glove,he's the only one who'll give you unconditional love.
When a dog offers you his heart,accept it with a smile,for his love will last a lifetime.which is such a little while."
Dogs and sheep go to heaven?.His next movie of the weak...a preacher with a DOG...I see a setup tie in here.

Lincoln Park resident Josh Smith doesn't consider filing taxes a once-a-year responsibility.
The 27-year-old entrepreneur strives to serve as more of a business coach to clients of his recently opened firm, JBS Life Chartered.
"What I'm realizing is that so many people who start businesses have never even taken a single business class," he said. "They can bake a cake or paint a picture and their products are marketable, but they may not know some of the basic business laws. That's where I come in."
He feels that offering guidance beyond general accounting is not just a specialty, but the responsibility of anyone who is a licensed certified public accountant. But too often, that responsibility is neglected.
"It's not just about helping people get their taxes correct, it's about helping them to efficiently run their businesses," Smith said.
A Buffalo Grove native and graduate of one of the top-ranked accounting schools in the country, University of Illinois, Smith says he decided to start his firm because he feels accountants often do a disservice to their clients by simply sending them tax organizers once a year. He officially opened for business July 9.
"They're really not helping you to run your business better," he said. "I can't tell you how many people have said to me, 'No one has ever sat me down and explained my tax return with this kind of detail.'"
Teaching people the ins and outs of business management is Smith's passion, he says. He does so from his office in Chicago's renown Garland Building, 111 W. Wabash Ave., where he is the sole accountant in a sea of mostly medical professionals.
His focus is on helping small to medium-sized companies — defined both by their number of employees and revenue — but he also prepares individual tax returns. Businesses he typically serves have as many as 50 employees and generate up to $10 million.
"I love about what I'm doing now," he said. "I feel like I'm really getting to know these people and I'm looking to grow with these businesses."
But his path to accounting hasn't always been so clear.
Smith began his education in hopes of pursuing a degree in sports management — an industry he quickly learned wasn't as cut and dry as he initially thought.
Upon realizing he was at the top-rated accounting university in the country, he soon embraced his talent for crunching numbers and analyzing finances, eventually going on to earn his master's degree.
In 2008, he began an internship with Horwich Coleman Levin LLC, which specializes in high net worth individuals and small-to-large privately held businesses.
"There are 15 professionals there so it's a small firm," he said. "But I was the youngest person they ever hired and the only intern they ever hired."
He signed on full time in 2009 and remained there until opting to go solo. He offers clients a litany of tips, he says, including urging them to keep close track of their expenses throughout the year in order to maximize their tax write-offs and best manage their finances.
He suggests that business owners make sure to open a separate bank account for their companies; use an Excel spreadsheet to manage data; file transaction documents in month-specific envelopes and write the reasons for purchases directly on receipts.
The Internal Revenue Service recently reported that late changes to federal tax laws will lead to a "short delay" for most taxpayers to file their 2012 returns. This year's filing season had been slated to start Jan. 22 but was delayed because of the big tax package passed by Congress Jan. 1.
Smith said the setback woouldn't stop him.
"I just want to help people to get these things right," he said. "I want to be a resource. I have a brain, unlike TurboTax."

This is life, and I'm in love with you… I think that's the only thing I've ever really been sure of in my entire life. And I'm really messed up right now, and I got a whole lot of stuff I have to work out, but I don't want to waste any more of my life without you in it. And I think I can do this. I mean, I want to. I have to, right?

I feel like men are more romantic than women. When we get married we marry, like, one girl, 'cause we're resistant the whole way until we meet one girl and we think I'd be an idiot if I didn't marry this girl she's so great. But it seems like girls get to a place where they just kinda pick the best option… 'Oh he's got a good job.' I mean they spend their whole life looking for Prince Charming and then they marry the guy who's got a good job and is gonna stick around.
