"You cannot defeat the Goddess," says one character in Sin City: A Dame to Kill For. "She cannot die." He's referring to Ava Lord, the seductive black widow who gives the film its title, and when she's played by Eva Green, who can blame him for using heavenly superlatives? There's always been something otherworldly about Green, who first impressed (and undressed) in Bernardo Bertolucci's The Dreamers, won best Bond Girl ever honors withCasino Royale, and just this year starred as the formidable Artemesia in 300: Rise of an Empire and toplined the Showtime series Penny Dreadful. A few weeks ago in Los Angeles, the slinky Green met up with Vulture at The Four Seasons to tell us how she got into character for the Robert Rodriguez–directed Sin City, and how she felt about getting out of her clothes for it.
Do you consider yourself an inhibited person when you're not shooting?
Oh, yes.
So it must surprise you how bold you can appear onscreen, especially in all of Sin City's sex scenes.
It's very ironic, because I'm very shy. People don't believe me: "She did The Dreamers, and all these other nude scenes!" But I remember telling my publicist, "I'm really naked in Sin City. Just wait." I don't know any actor who's comfortable with nudity, but it's not gratuitous in this film, because she uses her body as a weapon. Still, in the morning when you have a nude scene, you want to die. You feel quite silly to be in a tiny thong with Josh Brolin, who's wearing flesh-colored Spanx, and you're in front of a green screen — like, "This is not happening!" But Robert told us, "I'm going to add lots of shadows, and you'll look great. I knew that I could trust him.
When you play a character like that, does any of that confidence carry over into your real life?
Maybe it gave me some confidence in doing press, because I used to be very nervous doing interviews for TV — and I'm still not great, I get sweaty — but I got better. At school, I was really shy. If a teacher asked me a question in front of other people, I'd melt. Lots of actors are very scared in real life, actually.
Your characters are so forward with men. Are you?
No. I'm shit. [Laughs.]
How much freedom as an actor did you have in a film like this, where Robert is trying to re-create a lot of the frames from the comic almost exactly?
It's funny, because I was really worried about that before I started filming: Oh my God, you have to be so still! Can I even move my finger? Can I touch the other actor? And yes, he frames each shot like a painting and you have to hit the mark, and some of the stuff he wants exactly like in the comic book, but it was fine — especially because I had real actors in front of me, because I know some of the other actors didn't. I wouldn't have liked that, so I was really lucky.
Did you have to do a lot of work beforehand?
I was cast very last minute, like a week before shooting, and usually I like to prep, so I was panicked: "Oh my God, I have to work on an American accent and find the character, and there's so little time!" So I watched some film noir, like Barbara Stanwyck in Double Indemnity, because this is so femme fatale. At the beginning, I looked at my character and thought, My God, she's so evil. There are no cracks in her, and her heart is so hard. I've played evil before, but that one was 200 percent evil, so I had to find the jubilation in playing her. I brought my body and my heart to Ava Lord.
And none of the men in this movie can withstand her.
Yeah, she's quite scary. Quite scary! It would be interesting to do a prequel, just to find out why she's so hard. Maybe she was traumatized? Or maybe she was born crazy.
What do you get out of doing a show like Penny Dreadful, which is about to go into its second season?
It's fun, and I love fun. I love playing mad people, actually. My character looks quite guarded and very Victorian and tight, and to be able to let it all out … it's so fun to be that irreverent. It's like having a really bad Tourette's moment.
Do you watch the show? Did you see the seance sequence from your second episode?
No, I haven't! It's horrible.
Well, at least watch the show so you can get to the part where Josh Hartnett and Reeve Carney make out.
Oh my God. Oooh! [Laughs.]

Here are some reviews on Eva's performance in Sin City: A Dame To Kill For. Click on the Source links for the full film review.
But the main attraction here is Green, who, in addition to serving as the film's most eye-popping design element, invests Ava with a wild-eyed intensity worthy of Medea, adding another to the actress' gallery of murderous screen sirens following her performances in "300: Rise of an Empire" and "Dark Shadows."
– Justin Chang for Variety, Film Review: "Frank Miller's Sin City: A Dame to Kill For'
But A Dame to Kill For's best special effect is Eva Green. When her femme fatale — homophonically named Ava — bursts into a bar to plead that ex-boyfriend Brolin take her away from her rich husband (Marton Csokas) and omnipresent bodyguard (Dennis Haysbert), her ripeness reduces him to two words: "Ava. Damn." Green is sexy, funny, dangerous and wild — everything the film needed to be — and whenever she's not on the screen, we feel her absence as though the sun has blinked off. In a movie that treats women like chew toys, Green is powerful, even when she plays weak. When she coos, "I guess I'm not a very strong person," to her latest rescuer, not only is she wielding femininity like a trap, but it also feels as if she's sending up the rest of the film.
– Amy Nicholson for Westword, Sin City's Best Special Effect is Eva Green
Green is the only female performer who sees through this movie's ludicrousness and dares to one-up it. Her nudity feels defiant — she and even Brolin show a lot more skin than any of the strippers – and she turns Ava's rapaciousness into one of the few tangible objects in this movie made up principally of special effects. (Mickey Rourke, once again, brings soulfulness to the role of Marv, a monstrous tough-guy with a heart of tin.)
– Alonso Duralde for The Wrap, Sin City: A Dame To Kill For Review: Eva Green Steals This Juvenile Film Noir
It's almost a problem that Green plays Ava so perfectly – you may find yourself hoping she slithers her way out of her admittedly well-deserved comeuppance.
– Isaac Feldberg for We Got This Covered, Sin City: A Dame To Kill For Review
No other actress so perfectly embodies the classic femme fatale as Green, who plays Ava Lord in a twisted tale that explains how street hero Dwight (now played by Josh Brolin) came to need that new face he had in the first film. …… No other actress so perfectly embodies the classic femme fatale as Green, who plays Ava Lord in a twisted tale that explains how street hero Dwight (now played by Josh Brolin) came to need that new face he had in the first film.

The star of 'Penny Dreadful,' '300: Rise of an Empire' and 'Sin City: A Dame to Kill For,' looks back at her year's big roles
Eva Green's year has been one for the history books, or from them anyway. In March, the French actress was seen in plate mail playing the vengeful Persian warrior Artemisia in the action hit 300: Rise of an Empire. Then, in late April, she popped up in Showtime's Penny Dreadful, recently renewed for a second season, where she traded in ancient duds for frocks and black lace as Vanessa Ives, a Victorian prone to demonic possession. In August, Green caps her run of titillating period pieces with the release of the crime noir sequel Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, in which she played the dangerous siren Ava Lord. Though Green insists that any similarities between her trifecta of roles is accidental, 2014 has, coincidentally or not, been a renaissance for the 33-year-old, who first turned heads as Bond girl Vesper Lynd in 2006's Casino Royale and since then has largely sashayed under Hollywood's radar.
"To tell you the truth," admits Green in her lightly accented English. "I was not offered something interesting [after Casino Royale] by Hollywood. Every role was the boring beautiful girl. Instead of doing that, I made movies that not a lot of people saw but were good for my heart. I've always found the movie business rather cold, so finding parts to play and having people enjoy them has made this year a miracle for me."
Not that the London-based Green, a high fashion favorite, isn't used to attention — her mother is the well-known French actress Marlene Jobert (her father, Walter, is a dentist), and she's been a regular in European tabloids ever since she appeared as a baby with her mom and twin-sister Joy on the cover of Paris Match. Perhaps that's why off set, this self-described nerd prefers low-key pursuits at-odds with her fierce on-screen persona. "I like to stay home and read rather than go to a club or something," Green says. "I'm very shy. If I go out, I'm hugging the walls. "
Now, though, inhabiting the kind of powerful femme fatale roles that Angelina Jolie used to devour has now become Green's specialty, rendering her a cult favorite and rescuing her from being eternally entombed as a Bond girl. "It's been fun playing these strong, sexual women," she says. "Especially in Sin City my character is a real bitch. She uses her body as a weapon. It's very jubilating to do that. I wish I had the balls of my characters."
As the Motion Picture Association of America noticed, she's got something else. Green's Sin City poster showed her posing with a gun and wearing a sheer bathrobe that left little to the imagination. The MPAA subsequently refused approval for the poster's usage. "I don't understand the problem," she says. Then she adds with a laugh, "I heard that if my nipples were made darker the poster would be fine."
With Penny Dreadful finished filming for the season, Green, whose dream collaborators include David O. Russell and Danish provocateur Lars Von Trier, is looking for her next project. "I'd like to do something funny," she says, as long as it doesn't require abandoning her blooming dark side. "It would," she says, "have to be a comedy that's very sharp, and very black."

Lady in green!
For the L.A. premiere of Sin City: A Dame to Kill For on Aug. 19, Eva Green looked sinfully sexy in an emerald lace Elie Saab Couture gown and seductive makeup.
"The idea was a 'soft siren,'" celeb makeup artist Pati Dubroff exclusively told Us Weekly of Green's look. "With her raven hair down in a soft wave, the feeling was slightly film noir — and taking a nod from the styling of the film."
For sultry eyes, Dubroff used Surratt Expressioniste Brow Pencil in Raven to define and add drama to the brows. "I used Jillian Dempsey Khol Eyeliner in Jet Black at the base of the lashes an then Make Up For Ever Aqua Matic Eyeshadow Pencil in Diamond Golden Grey to give the eyes a smoky effect," she told Us.
Next, she topped with a matte grey shadow and then layered the sparkling green Urban Decay Moondust Eyeshadow in Zodiac and a mulberry color cream shadow on top. She finished with a few coats of mascara.
"For the lips, we went with a bruised plum tone," Dubroff said. To achieve the effect, she pressed Tarte Lipsurgence Power Pigment Pencil in Blushing Bride into the lips for a stained look that was also rich and defined.
Since the dress had an open back, Dubroff used Jergens BB Body Perfecting Skin Cream in Light. "It evened out the tone and provided a subtle sheen to illuminate the skin on her arms and back," Dubroff told Us.

"I am the mascot of Heart Gold! Fear me like the mighty Ho-Oh of lore!" The Music Note Pokémon proclaimed in a terrifying voice as it held its wings out and posed. "Worship me with currency! Gold! Money! Doubloons! Cold hard cash!" (Blu Rose's Pokémon Gray, chapter 21)
"Every time you pass a donation jar without donating, a rare Pokémon species comes closer to extinction. Don't be a murderer. Donate to the cause," it spoke in a gentle female voice as it gestured to the donation jar next to it.
"Fine… If it'll get you to shut up," I said as I reached into my bag and pulled out a crumpled bill, throwing it into the donation jar.
"Sleep tonight with a clear conscience." Chatot then looked at N expectantly.
"I think it wants you to give money."
"But I don't have any money."
"…Sleep tonight with one eye open," The bird Pokémon threatened with a smile. If I hadn't just heard the same bird refer to itself as Ho-Oh, I'd be afraid it would come true with its threat. (Blu Rose's Pokémon Gray, chapter 24)
Harry then collapsed face down onto the floor.
"He's dead!" Hermione shrieked, even through she was now watching the cats leave the room.
"I'm dead!" Harry exclaimed in horror.
"Why so he is, don't worry, I'm a detective," Ron said proudly.
"Don't worry, he's a detective," Harry said...
..."You are moving, you're talking," Snape said.
"No I'm not, I 'm dead," Harry insisted.
"And I'm solving his murder!" Ron said.
"An I am the murderer," Hermione revealed.
"Really?" Harry asked calmly.
"Yes, I couldn't stand the way you breathed when you were seven," Hermione answered, despite the fact that she didn't know Harry when he was seven.
"Well, in that case," Harry closed his eyes." ( TatraMegami's Rebellion, chapter 18)

AbstractFoodborne outbreaks of infectious disease have been associated with the contamination of fresh produce by infectious microorganisms such as hepatitis A virus. However, the indicator microorganisms currently used to assess the level of contamination in fresh produce are limited to bacterial microorganisms such as the total and fecal coliform groups that may have shorter half lives than the true enteric pathogens of interest. These bacterial indicators may not correlate with the presence/absence of enteric viruses effectively in fresh produce that may be consumed raw and sometimes fail to indicate contamination events. The project is to develop a simple and quantitative kit to detect coliphages as improved indicator microorganisms that more accurately index fecal contamination events. At the conclusion of the phase I study, the conceptual framework will be field-validated in a multi-state study to establish its robustness.

No low-flying planes invaded Belarus this week, says State Border Committee spokesman
No low-flying planes have invaded Belarus' airspace in the last couple of days, Alyaksandr Tsishchanka, spokesman for the State Border Committee, told BelaPAN on Thursday.
"We cannot confirm that any violations of the airspace took place," said Mr. Tsishchanka.
Every border unit has a duty to monitor the airspace and is equipped with special devices, he noted.
On Wednesday morning, Swedish public relations firm Studio Total, known for high-profile and sometimes deceptive publicity stunts, claimed that it had dropped hundreds of teddy bears holding miniature signs "We support the Belarusian struggle for free speech" on Belarus in a show of support for the country`s pro-democracy movement. The teddy bears were parachuted from a plane piloted by Swedes who took off in neighboring Lithuania, it said.
Later in the day, the firm released two videos that it said show the stunt taking place, according to Sweden`s news site The Local.
One video, allegedly shot from the ground in the town of Ivyanets, shows a small, single engine Jodel aircraft cruising in over the city, located some 50 kilometers west of Minsk.
Several small objects with what appear to be parachutes can be seen floating down from the plane over the city with its landmark Church of Saint Euphrosyne clearly visible in the video, according to The Local.
The other video was allegedly made by one of the pilots during the flight.
The Belarusian Ministry of Defense issued a statement to deny the report. It said that no planes had entered the country illegally over the last two days. Referring to experts who it said had examined the videos, the ministry described them as a crude fake of "a clearly provocative nature."
Other experts say that the video shot from the ground can be real, but it is not clear when it was made. They also suggest that the plane may have been brought into Belarus across the Russian border, where there are no border controls, disassembled to be assembled here for the flight, disassembled again and transported back to Russia. But if the plane took off in Lithuania as claimed by the organizers of the stunt, it violated the airspace of not only Belarus but also NATO, the experts say. //BelaPAN

And show up they did. It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie is a decidedly mixed bag which will entertain longtime Muppet fans and impressionable rugrats, but anyone else is going to be mildly amused at best and flat-out bored at worst.
Listed as a 2002 production, the film showcases what's left of the faded energy of the old school Muppets ensemble: Steve Whitmire (as a sharp Kermit), and to a lesser extent, Dave Goelz (as Gonzo in more of a supporting role). The "newcomers" provide life to the cast, but also reveal the that these are not the Muppets of our youth - while Eric Jacobsen does a fantastic job filling in for Frank Oz's roles (Piggy, Fozzy, Sam, Animal, even a cameo by Yoda) and Bill Barreta's Pepe is as sly and funny as ever, other classic characters such as Scooter, Janice, and Rowlf are noticeably different, or even silent altogether. While the differences in the older Muppets are a result of the puppets suffering the death or retirement of their main puppeteers, some of the newer characters are as cringe-inducing as ever. Johnny Fiama, I'm lookin' at you.
The spotty lameness extends to the human roles, though not in places you might expect. David Arquette is surprisingly not completely irritating in his role, and Joanne Cusak is appropriately nasty as the villain. But Whoopi Goldberg makes an uniteresting God (who does make an interesting God?) and Matthew Lillard's turn as a French director, is, well, um, he tried. Yes, he tried.
The film itself (or, the TV Movie itself) is not bad, providing decent pacing, excellent production values, breezy, smart writing, and even some treats for Muppet fans.Read more ›
Like many people, I grew up on Jim Henson and the Muppets: from Sesame Street to Fraggle Rock to The Muppet Show and The Storyteller and all those great Muppet Movies. I mourned the day Jim Henson died and I was glad that the Muppets have continued to survive after his death.
With that said, IT'S A VERY MERRY MUPPET CHRISTMAS MOVIE isn't quite up to the Muppets of old, but it's getting close and in my opinion is better than MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND or MUPPETS IN SPACE. This movie is a parody of the treasured Christmas classic, IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. We are taken back to the Muppet Theatre and years after dismal shows and not much profit, it looks like the Muppets will finally be in the black and have enough money to buy the theatre. Then the big, bad bank lady comes and threatens to take it all away. Kermit is in despair and feels like he has let the whole gang down and thinks the world would be better if he had never been born. Like George Bailey, Kermit gets to see his wish and learns some valuable lessons.
I admit I wasn't happy seeing Whoopie Goldberg play God. However, this is a parody of IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE and voice overs with twinkling stars would be overkill. I didn't mind the blatant self-promotion by NBC because the Muppets have been blatantly self-promoting themselves for the past 20 years and even when Jim Henson was alive there was a little crossover (every watch "Muppet Babies"?). I also wasn't offended by the scene with Fozzie and the lasers--it seemed more of a tip of the hat to The Looney Toons than anything else.Read more ›
Fortunately, their plight has caught the attention of an angel in Heaven. When God sends �DannyL� down to help, Kermit wishes he�d never been born. The results surprise him. But how can his revelation that he does matter help them out of their situation?
If you think the plot of this movie sounds like another Christmas movie, you�d be correct. Still, the gang manages to keep us entertained through the entire story with a fantastic show at the theater and with Fozzie�s hilarious attempts to get the money to the bank on time to name a couple fun moments. Some of the jokes will go over kid�s heads, but will make adults laugh out loud. There seems to be a bit too much sexual humor, usually involving Joan Cusack�s Miss Bitterman character. Most of it will go over kid�s heads, but why it needed to be there in a kid�s movie is beyond me. Speaking of whom, Ms. Cusack is over the top, but in a fun, campy performance that does fit the movie. David Arquette is a tad bumbling as DannyL, but Whoopi is enjoyable as God. And there are more cameos then you can shake a stick at.
I guess my biggest complaint with the movie is that it�s not as funny as I was expecting. They take parts of the story quite seriously without the trademark gags and puns we expect from the Muppets. Still, it�s a fun Christmas movie that will be enjoyed for years to come.

My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Product Description
Amazon.ca Product Description
Create compelling presentations that get noticed with this amazing graphics tool!
From Amazon.ca
Installing Keynote requires Mac OSX 10.2 (Jaguar) with 256 RAM and a G3 or G4. The installation process is as smooth as you would expect from Apple. However, you should be warned of the following: first, installing requires having administrator permissions; second, if you are not accustomed with Mac OSX, you need to double click on the keynote.pkg to begin the installation. Perhaps Apple could make that more obvious for first time or less experienced Mac OSX users. The whole installation process takes about four minutes.
Keynote is targeted towards current Macintosh PowerPoint users, as well as users who would like to create presentations but do not want to buy the whole Microsoft Office application. Keynote makes it very easy to create a presentation. You begin creating a slide presentation by selecting one of 12 themes. A theme defines the presentation's design (colour, "look and feel"); users are also free to design their own customised themes and templates. After selecting a theme you then choose how you want the information displayed eg: having the title displayed at the top or the middle of the slide. As with "themes", Apple have provided multiple layout options; alternatively, users have the freedom to design and create their own templates (this is similar to PowerPoint's template functionality).
Apple has made it easy to edit images and text within a slide. Alignment guides and rulers help you to align and centre images and text on the slide canvas. You can also build tables and charts that can import data from Excel. Keynote's versatility is further highlighted by supporting the standard graphic file formats eg: JPEG, PDF, MOV, GIF, TIFF as well as accepting various multimedia file types such as FLASH, MP3 and MOV--you can even add a file from your iTunes music library to your Keynote slide.
Finally, if you are inclined to use Keynote but are worried that your existing PowerPoint files will become useless or that you will not be able send your keynote slides to Window users then worry no longer: Apple has made sure that Keynote can import and export PowerPoint files. --Parvesh ChhibberSee all Product Description

Under the Keynote Hood
You can choose transition, style, direction and speed when you use KeynoteÕs Inspector. Creating object builds adds visual interest to your slide presentation. You can animate the elements on a single slide or in a group of slides.
One click and you alter the opacity of a graphic using the Slide Inspector. Click twice and you can set the playback parameters for a QuickTime movie. The Build window in the Inspector allows you to preview, add, and manipulate transitions within and between slides.
AppleÕs Keynote allows you to include sound for your presentation. AppleÕs KeynoteÕs sound formats you can use are MOV, Flash, MP3 and AIFF. Also, you can add files from iTunesÕ music library to your Keynote slide presentation. In addition, you can add a Quicktime movie to your slides.
Pro Reaction
Keynote has crisp, fresh graphics. KeynoteÕs ÔDrag and DropÕ and exporting to AppleÕs Quicklime both work well. You can import Microsoft PowerPoint or AppleWorksÕ presentations and create a custom theme base on those slides.
You can store your images in KeynoteÕs Image Library. KeynoteÕs Cube and Mosaic Large transitions are outstanding for updating your MicrosoftÕs PowerPoint. You receive a KeynoteÕs User Guide manual. No missing manual here.
Con Reaction
Keynote lacks prebuilt presentations. Also, Keynote has very little clip art to work with in presentations. Also, you have limited presentation themes to choose from in Keynote.Read more ›
You can't export to HTML but you can export to Quicktime, PDF, and Powerpoint. When you do export to Powerpoint you can not have all the bells and whistles that you may have loaded your presentation with. Keynote has different transitions and fonts than Powerpoint so those get lost when you export. My first trial presentation I loaded it with all the effects possible (transitions, shadows, animations, etc.) and exported to all the possible formats. It was very easy to do but none of the other formats looked as good as the original Keynote presentation. The Powerpoint presentation did come close but the graphics compared to Keynote just did not stand up. I did have to make some adjustments in Keynote to make the Powerpoint version better (took out the shadows). When you make a movie you decide just how big you want it to be for the purpose of sending it via e-mail or posting it on the Internet. It was also incredibly easy making a PDF file.
Where it does come strong is in graphics. The slides look beautiful and so does the text and the pie charts and graphs. The transitions are a lot of fun and mostly because they are new and haven't really been seen before. The program is very intuitive and easy to use. I look forward to the additional features that will surely come down the road.
Plus, it's easy to pick up. My learning curve _might_ have been five minutes. (Though, to be fair, I've reviewed hundreds of software applications for computer magazines, and I'm a fast learner. So give yourself ten minutes, instead, before you pick up the adequate but not-overwhelming printed manual.)
Keynote is a good example of technology helping rather than getting in the way. Except you'll probably spend more than a couple of minutes playing with the really impressive set of slide transitions. I never need such things, but I had fun with them anyway.
But don't expect perfection. Keynote is a great version 1.0, but it's definitely 1.0. So far, I've found two glaring omissions: it doesn't export presentations to HTML (PDF, Quicktime and PowerPoint yes... HTML no). And there's no way to create a follow-me arrow, as in Visio. Creating a process chart, with this-leads-to-that, or an organization chart, can be an exercise in frustration.
I'm sure that later versions will address these limitations, however. Overall, I'm very pleased with the software.
The user interface for this program is fast and easy to learn. It even gives you several options of themes to use for those deadline crunches that we all run into from time to time. It includes the famous drag-and-drop functionality that we've come to expect.
Most importantly, you can save it out to PowerPoint for those less enlighted souls who still think that a Windows machine will help them keep up with the times.

Skip to comments.Question about posting on Free Republic (no sarcasm please :-> )
Posted on 10/25/2012 7:26:19 PM PDT by ObozoMustGo2012
Clearly I can post and reply to threads, but looking for instruction on other functions. Specifically like posting pictures, quoting, font styles like underline, bold, strikeout, etc.
Is there a FR help section or link I can click on? Thanks!!!
That's done using HTML. There are lots of free tutorials on the web.
Actually, it's a very good question. I'm sure I (and other folks) will be able to benefit from reading constructive replies.
FReeper HTML sandbox.
Sarcasm tag
</sarc> This is the sarcasm tag. It is not a real HTML tag. It is used to mark your witty repartee so that everyone will know you are making a funny. Type an ampersand - & then lt; then /sarc. An & and gt makes the other carat >.
This is in the sandbox
Yep, as others have posted, you have to visit the Sandbox.
It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. Welcome to FR!
I do it the lazy way /s
With the idea that you might not be able to find "html sandbox" using FR search, here's a post from 2008 that probably covers most of it.
If you want to post pix, you want to find in whichever storage tank you use the html prefix that starts with <a href = _____________________________
If you copy and paste the link and put it first it will automatically formatted as a link.
No sarcasm, no answers!
Read the sandbox threads and good luck.
I'd like to add a question if you don't mind.
Is there a way to return to a thread later and go right to where you stopped reading before? Some of the fast growing threads get me lost when I open them again.
Welcome to Free Republic!!
If you post on the thread you can go to your history and start from there. That is why sometimes you see someone just post bookmark or read later.
Hey, Cat!
How bout the n00bie with the oh-so-timely nick?
Now that there is a screen name that'll stay relevant for a long, long time, eh?
(By the way - n00bie, any pleas for restraint from sarcasm are automatically submitted to the committee on unrelenting sarcasm for further review and action. This is part of the Piranha Brothers Unwritten Law. Any further pleas for mercy will result in having your head nailed to the floor.)
It's HTML code. You have to do it yourself.
Try WebMonkey. Nice little site for basic learning and a cheat sheet.
Thanks, I was hoping there was a way besides posting a bookmark post. After all, the place gets bogged down at times and it would be nice to keep those posts to a minimum.
I've had good luck with Photobucket.
I haven't had as good luck avoiding sarcasm. I had to be a "pancake bunny" and a DU troll and a weirdo from Daily Kos for awhile; but that which does not kill you makes you stronger, to quote a Godless nihilist.
Bouncing off the walls here is part of the fun. Sarcasm is the oil that lubricates this place much of the time!
There plenty of web based tutorials for html. Here are a several: http://html.net/ ,http://html.net/tutorials/html/ , or http://htmldog.com/guides/htmlbeginner/
One thing you may already know is that you can copy and paste a link and it will automatically be posted as a clickable link in your post.
However if you add a single HTML tag of your own then the auto feature is turned off, and you must format your entire post with HTML. Even a link. And even paragraph brakes/ line spacing.
Also no images are hosted on FR. They must be hosted off site.
Video and audio embedding are not allowed.
A pre-emptive plea for mercy usually works on gardening forums, etc.
I lurked long enough to know not to try it here and still got the crap beat out of me.
It was great fun! Half the blast here is knowing everyone has a stilletto in their boot, ready to eviscerate you for showing any extra-Constitutional weakness or a dumbass typo.
Like internet seal training or aversion therapy, IMHO.
"Like internet seal training or aversion therapy, IMHO."
I like to think of it as eternal FR boot camp. LOL
>>No easy way for posting photos and links etc. Gotta do what we all did and learn the html.
But there is. Not perfect, but very easy to use: http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm
Your sign up shows 2010. If your lurking goes back sufficiently you might remember a phenomenon known as the "Crevo Thread."
It was on one such thread that I cut my teeth (and more than a few teeth were sunk into my tender flesh.)
I figured that was enough of a trial by fire for one lifetime. So the next Crevo Thread that came along I just ridiculed the folks I disagreed with mercilessly. No reasoning whatsoever.
That worked out just fine.
The first rule is, you don't have to use HTML. If your post doesn't contain anything that looks like HTML, then it gets presented pretty much as written. The only major change I'm aware of is that anything that looks like a link gets link-enabled automatically.
However, if your post does have any HTML, then it needs to be proper HTML. E.g., if you include a link, you need to enclose it in an <a> tag, or it won't be live; it will be just text. You also need to insert proper paragraph and newline markers, or your post will end up as a monolithic blob of text.
So, you just need to learn some of the basic HTML markup elements, such as the ones for links, italics, bold face, headings, block quoting, ordered and unordered lists, tables, images, etc. A good place to start is w3schools.com.
One function that trips people up is images. FR doesn't host images. To show an image on FR, it has to be hosted on the web somewhere (other than FR). Once you have a URL, it's pretty simple (usually). You just drop the image URL into an img element. If it's your own photo or whatever, you need to upload it to a hosting service (e.g., PhotoBucket) first, then obtain the URL, and post.
Occasionally, a picture will look just fine until you post it on FR, whereupon it either doesn't show at all or a different image shows. What is happening is, the server from which the image is being fetched is taking umbrage at the fact that the image request is referred from an FR page and is serving up nothing or something else. This phenomenon can be hard to notice as well, since the image is already in your browser cache, so it works when you preview (you get the cached image), but not for anybody else. It's also possible that an image will get taken down, moved, or changed by whoever is hosting it.
One way past the above problems is to rehost an image. That is, to say, to place a copy of it on another server, then post the URL to that copy. There is actually a Firefox extension, Rehost Image, that makes that really simple. You right-click on the image, select Rehost Image, and it will upload the image to a hosting service such as imgur and copy the short URL to the clipboard.
Im really quite surprised that no one has said anything about it. We all know the most common mistake made while posting to FreeRepublic.com is forgetting to Log On.
Happily there is an alternative. Each posts' number can be clicked on in a thread, and when this is done it reloads the thread right at the post you clicked on (whether it was your post or not).
Once you do this once though, for some reason it won't refresh the thread again (show new replies) but you can also either just click on another posts' number and that will refresh the thread again at that post. Also of course you can click on the "last" link in a thread with more than 50 replies (but that won't take you back to a particular post just the last one on that page)
I click on the post numbers myself on he live threads to avoid loosing my place; it works well.
Tip if using Firefox. To see how someone did a post, select the post with your mouse and then right click and choose "view selection source" . It will show you how someone else coded their post.
I wonder if I can still do it?
I got hooked to FR by the birther controversy prior to the 2008 election, missed the crevo thread.
It was like landing on the Island of Misfit Bellicose Broken Toys Who Are Generally P_ssed About The State Of The Country And Ready To Kick Your Ass.
Loved it ever since.
Yes, indeed. And my proclivity for beer makes it all the more challenging.
FR is a great source of laughter, often at my own expense.
Insert a ping (sfl, bfl and bttt are common), and then trackback through your self pings.
Remember the real old days when someone wouldn't close a tag, and there would be pages of size 80 font flashing red text? When that happened in a MiaT thread, it would take hours to open on dialup.
OK now I got "CREVO"-
Yeah, that would be like walking into a Bruce Lee fight scene with this crowd.
They'll argue with you just to argue, and then show you a white blackbird and start quoting greek and whatnot.
Die Heretic Scum!!!
In the browser's address bar, add the post number at the end, and then hit the star to do a quick save in your browsers bookmarks.
For example, to go to this thread's post #20, You have "http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/2950332/posts?page=18" in the browsers address bar. Add #20 to make it "http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/2950332/posts?page=18#20" Then save that bookmark.
It was like landing on the Island of Misfit Bellicose Broken Toys Who Are Generally P_ssed About The State Of The Country And Ready To Kick Your Ass.
Loved it ever since.
Same here!

Jessica Biel in Paige Premium
It's been a while since we posted much about Jessica Biel on DenimBlog. She was seen walking around Queen Street West in Toronto, Canada while on her day off from filming Total Recall. Apparently Justin Timberlake came to visit her on set!
Jess wore a pair of the Paige Premium Verdugo Ultra Skinny jeans in Scarlet which she cuffed and wore with a grey sweater and striped tee. I quite like the rusty/orangey undertones that the Scarlet wash has actually, it's different to most red jeans that way. I do love red jeans though and I think Jess looks really good here in these! Buy these jeans at PaigeUSA.com for $179.

The Saturdays in Denim
The gorgeous girl band The Saturdays posed for photos at the Nintendo and The Dogs Trust launch for the Nintendogs game in Uxbridge, England a couple of days ago. I think it's great they are supportive of the dogs! The puppies look adorable.
Frankie Sandford (far right) wore a pair of J Brand denim leggings while Rochelle Wiseman (second from left) wore a pair of skinny Work Custom jeans. I can't seem to figure out the light blue jeans on Mollie or the black ones on Vanessa. But I am glad nearly all of them chose to wear denim! Well, except Una in her shorts. They look amazing in skinny jeans! Buy J Brand and Work Custom at Singer22.com.

January Jones in Mama J by J Brand
Actress January Jones got spotted by the paps as she was walking her dog near her home in Los Angeles, California a few days ago. We often seem to see January on this route, I always think the scenery is pretty!
She chose to wear none other than her Mama J by J Brand Maternity Straight Leg jeans in Heritage again. January seems to be loving these jeans throughout her pregnancy, they must be really comfortable. Have any of you mums or mums to be tried the J Brand maternity collection? Buy these jeans at J Brand for $196.

Mother Fall 2011 Line Sheet
Here is a look at the Mother Fall 2011 Line Sheet. I always love looking at the Line Sheets to see what styles are coming in what washes but it's not often they can be posted. I'm completely in love with the gorgeous hues and tones of these washes! The purple skinny jeans above are my absolute favourites! I also like the 70's vibe with the mustard yellow flares. You can check out the rest of the images in the gallery below.

WATCH: Jedi James Marsters
Posted August 3rd, 2014 @ 7:49pm
We bumped into "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" veteran James Marsters this weekend at Wizard World San Antonio as he was teaching a cosplayer the ways of the lightsaber. After a few spins we wondered if maybe he was planning to audition for the upcoming Star Wars films? I guess we'll have to wait to see how that goes.

Earn Your Wings With These Ultra-Affordable Quadcopters, On Sale Today Only
If you're curious about drones, but don't want to spend $500 or more on a DJI Phantom, these discounted Dromidas are great quads to practice with.
If you're curious about drones, but don't want to spend $500 or more on a DJI Phantom, these discounted Dromidas are great quads to practice with.
This is like something out of a nightmare: a chainsaw attached to a drone. What could possibly go wrong?
Drones can get really, really expensive. If you're new to the hobby, these models and their deals should help put things within your reach.
There is no better way to celebrate the passing of time than with a gratuitous display of synchronized dancing. Scratch that: Make the dancers robots and add in some drones, too. That should do it.
We've all had flying toys that don't actually fly. From little tin planes to hulking Millennium Falcon replicas, it's fun to imagine if the toy worked like the real thing. Well, one anonymous quadcopter enthusiast didn't imagine with his new Hasbro First Order Special Forces TIE Fighter. He made it fly.
In 2013, Amazon told the world that they wanted to start delivering stuff straight to your backyard, using drones. It seemed like a science-fiction pipedream, but here we are in 2015, and they're still working on it while waiting for the "regulatory support needed to realize our vision".
NASA's Greased Lightning GL-10 is a beast of a drone (it has 10 engines!) that's the closest thing we have to a Transformer in real life. It can flip itself into a helicopter and then fly like an airplane and then revert back to helicopter mode. It's awesome seeing the wings tilt back and forth as it changes gears.
Hard to get a glimpse of the propellers in French enthusiast Oliver C's X-Wing drone. It is a completely rebuilt and customized quadrocopter that now looks like the iconic fighter from Star Wars.
In a town far far away, the number of UFO sightings probably went up when drone enthusiast Oliver C unchained his RC quadrocopter, dressed up as a TIE Interceptor from Star Wars.
Nice catch! Zweier Spanjer's first day testing out his DJI Phantom II drone took an unexpected turn when its batteries started to deplete and the $700 gadget started plummeting towards the nearest pond.
A two-wheeler trying to save its car friends, a teddy bear awaiting lifesaving batteries... There's a lot of drama in Corridor Digital's latest short where remote controlled cars are trying to escape a group of aggressive mini drones.
Drones have a lot of potential applications — blowing stuff up, fictional delivery services, flying cameramen. But Cyberpunk ballet dancer? That's a new one to me.
This brilliant Drone Survival Guide contains "the silhouettes of the most common drone species used today and in the near future," each drawn to scale and marked as surveillance or killing machines. You can print it yourself (PDF) or order a folded offset print on Chromolux ALU-E mirrored paper.
Designer Alex Cornell has made this video called Our Drone Future, which gives us a glimpse of a future where fleets of drones monitor our every outdoor activity. It's as cool as it is a little creepy.
Amazon's drone delivery service hasn't launched yet - and may never launch - but that hasn't stopped people from imagining what a "missed delivery" notice might look like.
As people who clamor for war think that World War III will soon dawn upon us because that's just how the world goes, it looks like China's trying to go drone-for-drone with the Americans. And as the Americans have stepped up the flight testing of their drones, so have the Chinese. And weirdly, they look the same.
An awkward thing happens late in the life of a fighter jet. It becomes too decrepit for combat but too functional for the junkyard. Don't worry, though. The Air Force has a plan: convert them all into drones in order to offer fighter pilots in training more realistic target practice.
A United Nations investigator is warning that CIA-controlled remote drone assassinations of suspected Islamic terrorists could lead to a "PlayStation mentality" towards killing.
