Jolana (18) is an object of her stepf-father's desire. She is unable to cope, especially when her own mother turns a blind eye. Those events are heavily paid for when she finds herself working in a brothel. Her inability to cope raise a question: What is it she actually wants? Are her dreams of escaping really better than the reality she finds herself in?

Union Jack flags available to buy online at UK Flag Shop. We have a great range of Union jack flag designs in a variety of colours including pink, green, blue and the black Union flag. Also available are a variety of historical British Union Jack flags for sale including the Jack and Admiral of the Fleet and Kings Colours.
One of the greatest and most iconic flags to grace a pole has to be the resplendent Union flag, otherwise known as the Union Jack flag. Standing as a symbol of patriotism and pride in the Great British nation, the Union Jack was seen in its thousands during Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee and 90th birthday celebrations. You will also see an abundance of Union flags during British sports events, whether it's cheering on Lewis Hamilton at the F1, or whilst indulging in a bowl of strawberries and cream at Wimbledon and watching Andy Murray win the men's singles crown, the Union Jack flag brings all loyal Brits together.
So, how did this wonderful red white and blue design come about, and whose idea led to the design?
King James VI of Scotland (and I of England) was passionate about uniting the two countries so, despite opposition from the Parliaments of England and Scotland, declared himself King of Great Britain (the first time the country had been referred to by this name – Britain being a name which was popular in Roman times) and on April 12th 1606 a design for a new flag which incorporated the Scottish Saltire and the St George Cross of England was agreed. The flag was to be known as the Union Jack (Jack is a shortened version of the word Jacobean – Latin for James). King James died in 1625 so never saw the Union of England and Scotland come to pass – this did not happen until 1707 under the the reign of Queen Anne. The Saltire of St Patrick was added during the Act of Union 1800 to represent Ireland as part of the Union.
The Flag Shop has a vast range of Union Jack products, including hand wavers, bunting, table flags and, of course, standard sizes for hanging proudly from a flagpole.

I have a Senco 23 g air pinner. It 's approx 5 years old but seen very little use. I had cause to use it today but found that I was not able to slide the pin adjustment slide to cater for the one inch pin which is the maximum length the nailer can handle. The adjustment slide adjusts smoothly for all other pins lengths in the range (1/2" – 1"). It feels as if something has jammed in the slide adjustment mechanism preventing the full range travel. It just stops short of the one inch mark meaning I cannot use one inch nails. I have stripped the nailer and magazine but cannot see any debris or obstruction. It is well maintained and lubricated, no knocks or been dropped. Any ideas what may be preventing full range of adjustment travel??? Many thanks, David -- No one plans to fail, they just, just fail to plan |

Other than an obstruction or bent part, I would have no idea. Mine is a Cadex and has its own challenges. Be sure not to turn up the air pressure—I use mine around 60 psi and adjust minutely from there. Good luck and best wishes! P.S. Be sure not to over lubricate and consider shooting through masking tape to minimize other problems, c.f. http://lumberjocks.com/topics/54156 -- John C. -- "Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty's teeth."

Hi John, with such a small gun it could be possible something has become bent but I spent an hour or two this morning giving it a close once over but nothing seems out of true or alignment, which makes it all the more frustrating. Push come to shove I may just have to forgo the one inch pin and accept the 22mm (7/8") is the max I can use. I don,t often need the full one inch pin but no doubt I will need it at some point. If I find the time I may try a full strip down and over haul but I doubt if it has fired 300 pins so something may have failed inside rather than worn out. I may try Senco customer support to see if they have any ideas. Hope all is well your side. David -- No one plans to fail, they just, just fail to plan |

I have an off brand Chianese 18 g nailer that has difficulty with the slide going fiully home and latching with its largest 1 1/16 inch nails. When this occurs I some times take the stick out and reposition it in its tray and it closes fully; other times I turn the stick over and it closes then lastly I swap for a different stick and no problem Try giggling the skick a little and see if it seems to seat further in the follower chanel. -- Russell Pitner Hixson, TN 37343 email@example.com |
#4 posted 10-23-2013 12:00 PM |
Thanks for your response Russell, although I have tried that (with the exception of inverting the stick) the guide rail which raises and lowers to allow the nail stick to clear the opening port when the adjustment scaler is moved back and forth will just not raise any further than just below the required height to allow the inch nails to clear the port. I thought of brute force and ignorance but it being such a deliacte tool I am fearful of forcing it too much in case the whole thing breaks. It may just be a case of "Oh well" and make do with 7/8 of an inch as a maximum fastener. -- No one plans to fail, they just, just fail to plan |

Roger, I emailed SENCO, they sent me a parts diagram and a crib sheet with questions and solutions to similar problems with the gun. Next time I have a couple of spare hours I'll conduct a strip down to see if anything is lodged where i can't see it. Apparently these small guns suffer such issues because any impediments trapped or lodged in the working parts are difficult to see and get at because the pins are so small. In the meantime I await the Bosticth 23 g I ordered from the States. It should arrive next week -- No one plans to fail, they just, just fail to plan |

Lindsay Boxer is pregnant at last! But her work doesn't slow for a second. When millionaire Chaz Smith is mercilessly gunned down, she discovers that the murder weapon is linked to the deaths of four of San Francisco's most untouchable criminals. And it was taken from her own department's evidence locker. Anyone could be the killer - even her closest friends. Lindsay is called next to the most bizarre crime scene she's ever witnessed: two bodiless heads elaborately displayed in the garden of a world-famous actor. Another head is unearthed in the garden, and Lindsay realises that the ground could hide hundreds of victims. A reporter launches a series of malicious articles about the cases and Lindsay's personal life is laid bare. But this time she has no one to turn to - especially not Joe.

Donovan Schaefer at ReligionDispatches.org investigates the possibility of humans putting out scent chemicals as emotional responses:
The researchers found that the chemical profile of the theater atmosphere was modified according to the events onscreen. Each film produced what the authors called a distinct "CO2 profile," a map of peaks and valleys corresponding to the plot trajectory—and especially the moments of high excitement—of the movies onscreen. Rituals, congregations, and sacred spaces may be much more than just a shared hallucination, as Freud thought: they may be tinged with a chemical force that binds bodies to each other in important ways—or with other vectors of experience that can be hard to see at first glance.
Have you ever experienced a distinct aroma in specific groups? Or perhaps of those around you during specific emotional responses?
Ready to jump into that clean-smelling pool this summer? Think again! Kate Baggaley at Slate.com explains what we're actually smelling:
Chlorine itself does have a smell, and it is similar to what you're used to whiffing at the pool (or in bleach), says Ernest Blatchley, a civil and environmental engineer at Purdue University. But the concentration of chlorine in a pool is low enough that you're probably not going to smell it—until it starts mixing with people's sweat or pee to produce chloramines.
Kate's advice? Shower before and after pool use and resist the urge to pee in the pool! Dare I ask if anyone is generally enchanted by the smell of a pool? Having grown up in Florida, I can admit to quite liking it....
Clean is farm-to-bottle? Leanne Delap for TheStar.com explains this new move from the American fragrance company:
Eco packaging is also important to the target consumer here, says Greta Fritz, the director of global marketing for Fusion/Clean Beauty. "The cap is made of wood from a sustainably managed forest in Spain. The products are infused with sustainable ingredients plus some Ecocert-certified sustainable materials. They are manufactured with corn alcohol in a 100-per-cent solar-powered facility and put into recyclable glass bottles." Fritz describes the brand as "the anti-fragrance fragrance, suitable to be worn in proximity with others," addressing the growing movement to go fragrance-free in the workplace and public spaces.
What are your thoughts on this trend? Are you curious?
Aaron Elstein profiled International Flavors and Fragrances (IFF) this week for CrainsNewYork.com
IFF is now trying to reach beyond the world of household goods. It used its fragrances to help create a virtual reality exhibit at last month's Tribeca Film Festival called "Famous Deaths." There, curiosity seekers slipped into a coffin-shaped chamber and, through a combination of sound and smell, experienced what Whitney Houston's last moments were like before she drowned in a Beverly Hills hotel bathtub. They could also experience a re-creation of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and what promoters called "the penetrating scent of blood, brains and gunpowder drilling its way into your nostrils."
Hmmm, what do you think? I can think of other experiences I'd rather have...working in a chocolate shop or lavender field, or even sitting in a monarch's royal greeting chamber. What kind of scented virtual reality might you wish to experience?
IFF's Sofia Meltser; photo by Buck Ennis for CrainsNewYork
Kenneth Garger of NYPost.com reported on the seizure of fake fragrances in New York last week:
Five Queens men were busted Wednesday for running a multimillion-dollar counterfeit-perfume operation that peddled phony merchandise containing trace amounts of a cancer-causing substance, authorities said. The crew took trips to China, where they would get name-brand perfumes such as Chanel, Lacoste and Calvin Klein duplicated, then pedal the goods to wholesalers in the city and across the nation at a steep discount, officials said.
Scary! Whenever I see a VERY low-priced bottle of a major designer scent on auction sites, I typically know they are too good to be true! Without mentioning any seller's names, have you ever suspected a fragrance you purchased was a fake?

Yuck!!Starting to hate pools...
I am the lucky owner of 5 (five) bottle of FAKE Tom Ford Black Orchid. Purchased at a flea market (bad sign #1) for $20.00 a bottle (bad sign #2). Vendor guy seemed shady and emotionless (bad sign #3).
They smelled pretty damn close for the first 2 minutes--and then the dry-down was the same crappy dry-down you smell in like 99 % of dollar store "fakers" that smells like artificial burnt licorice plastic. Putrid!
Why is that particular one faked so often and the others have not? Also- you gotta think: who is making these?
I am one of those people who loves the smell of chlorine - I don't know why, but it has many positive and happy associations for me. I have to say that the Scents of Death was a 'reach'... there are so many things that one could try to recreate in scent, but this smacks of pushing too far into the tacky :-/ I love the general idea, but the choice of subject could have been a bit less invasive and heartless.
The only fakes I've purchased so far is a bottle of vintage Cassini, and a bottle of Volupte parfum. I didn't suspect I knew as soon as I opened the packages that they were fake. With Cassini I could tell by just looking at the box, and the Volupte from the smell.
I ended up with a fake Tom Ford Black Orchid. I could not get a tester from my local perfume store (Boots UK). They will not give any testers of anything, including makeup, which is why they all end up on ebay etc. What if we need to test for allergies and so on?
I wrote to Tom Ford and complained that I could not get a tester to compare my perfume with and they sent me a tester. Annoyed is an understatement! What is wrong with being honest? I can't believe that we have such a crappy bunch of people living in our society, and I could not get my money back. Typical...
I also hate the smell of bleach and chlorine, which makes my eyes hurt. Now I know what makes them go red and hurt, I won't be swimming in that!
I think I probably bought a fake bottle of Balmain d'Ivoire last week. It was a new tester in a box. The company is legitimate I have bought from them many times just not at this location before, and this is the first time I got a fake. It was only ten dollars so no huge loss. When I got home I looked up what the bottle should actually appear like then I knew. I need to get a phone from this millenium so I can look things up while I am actually at the store.
I agree with CoffeeCup about when you are ill you can smell things differently. After a bad bout of flu and I feel better I cannot bear the smell of the bedding and must launder all of it at the laundromat to get the "flu smell" gone.
One other thing I recalled several years ago I had an extremely bad flu, temperature around 104, drifting in and out of consciousness but what was really strange is that I kept insisting that I smelled a very bad sewer smell and could someone please make it stop. My daughter told me there was nothing wrong with the plumbing but I swore I smelled something very bad and this went on for more than a day, the sense of smell works in mysterious ways in the brain it seems.
And as a woman, now that I am through the change, perfumes do NOT last on me like they used to. It has to be the shift in hormones causing this. My skin seems to just gobble them up. I don't even bother testing or trying light airy fragrances because they will literally disappear in five minutes. It's only the powerhouses for me from now on.
The human body, who can know it all..
So annoying when I'm walking along in my local Walmart parking lot (pet food and pharmacy is handy) I always see the same blowsy old woman with bad teeth driving up to people saying "you vanna buy ssum perffume?" goes without saying they probably are not even good knockoffs.
A little aside from the topic, but I was reading the other day, that peoples' eyes don't get red from the chlorine in pools it's actually from the urine in the water. Eww yuck!
Got duped by a well-priced fake Chanel on the auction site. The bottle that arrived had a cracked plastic lid and a peeling label, and the scent lasted maybe five minutes on skin. Was able to get my money back and put it towards the purchase of a legit bottle from an official authorized retailer. As this article shows, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is!
And oh! That "Famous Deaths" thing is beyond tacky! As you articulated so well, Marlen, there are many other wonderful and positive olfactory experiences in which I would rather immerse myself!
The counterfeit thing scares me. I often buy in store however, occasionally I do purchase online. It's the purchasing on-line that worries me. Most often I am sure I am buying from a reputable site, but how do you know where they got their product from?
And the counterfeits these days, some of them are very close to accurate in appearance. You can smell the difference next to the real thing. But if you don't have the real thing to reference it can be tricky. Watch the YouTube video showing the fake versus the real Versace Oud Noir that came out a few years ago from FRAGRANCEFANATIC1. These criminals adapt, and improve their fakes constantly.
Gone are the days where the counterfeits are obvious. Nowadays it can be very difficult to tell. I appreciate all the YouTube tutorials that help clarify the issue. This isn't just a few fraudsters, this is now in the organized crime arena. This is organized crime on a high level. I have a friend in the fragrance industry that told me how much money they spend on fighting counterfeits. It's unreal.
Ps. There is also a very similar Armani Si for women floating around. There is a youtube video on that one also.
I don't see the point of an "anti-fragrance fragrance" that's supposed to fit in in fragrance-free places. By definition, it would smell like nothing, and I don't want to spend money on that! You get the same effect by just doing your laundry the way you usually do.
The chlorine thing is true, I have a friend who works at a pool. She told me if you go for a swim and the chlorine smell is really prevalent, it means the place is dirty. What you're smelling is the chlorine reacting with dirt/poo/pee.
Fascinating! I do like the eco-bottling trend. I buy my clothes with these same types of issues in mind. I wear almost exclusively Eileen Fisher who uses eco-friendly techniques in processing fibers, uses natural fibers,uses solar energy, reduces water use and monitors closely the conditions for workers in garment assembly locations, just to name a few of the initiatives of the Eileen Fisher company.
The recreation of events by smell, ugh. I've smelled blood and it's not pretty. Don't need to go there again!
What a great article, thank you!
As for the topic - I hate the smell of pools/chlorine, and I hate the smell of bleach - both of which smell horribly dirty to me, as if designed to mask filth or something. I know, I must be weird. :)
And yes, I agree - different emotions "semll" differently, fear smells different than excitement/arousal for sure. And tired or ill people smell differently than the ones in good health for example.
Just my 2cents. :)
Good article Marlen. I am very fearful of getting a fake and that is why I only buy brands like Chanel in reputable stores. I hear the horror stories and people get so disappointed, so sad. I also admit I like the smell of my skin after coming out of the pool.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
As widely reported yesterday, Amazon's voice assistant is getting a smaller, less expensive little brother. The WSJ, who broke the news, has all the salient details. Codenamed "Fox," the device is rumored to be about the size of a soda can, with battery power and on-demand voice assistance at the push of a button. For anyone who's followed Amazon for an appreciable amount of time, this strategy shouldn't come as a shock. After all, it's one that they have used to great success with the launch of the $50 Kindle Fire last year. Amazon knows that, to be truly successful in the long term, they need you to buy into their ecosystem. That means books for your Kindle. Movies for your Fire TV. Music for your Echo. They're the vampire that you open the door wide for, with a smile on your face.
Of course, when there isn't a clear content pipeline, that's where the "launch pricey hardware, use the early gen to fuel a cheaper second gen for the masses" Amazon strategy runs into trouble (Fire Phone, anyone?). Luckily for Echo Jr. (Echo's Echo? Soundwave? Oh man, if they named it Soundwave, I'd buy a dozen in homage to my 80s Transformers obsession), streaming music is one of Echo's very capable functions. Portable speakers are becoming much more ubiquitous and one that's tied to your Prime library is going to give you a lot more bang for your buck when you get to the beach and don't feel like jamming to anything preloaded on your phone.
However, while Echo does have music as a tentpole, it's not the device's raison d'etre. No, Echo is ostensibly more about getting everyone used to using Amazon's own voice assistant, Alexa. And this is where "Fox" stumbles a bit for me. If the WSJ is right, then Alexa is going to get shunted to "on-demand" status, at least when operating on battery power. It makes perfect sense from a power-preservation standpoint; but it also dulls my desire for the device. When I'm at the beach or working outside, I'm not necessarily going to want to dirty up my portable Echo by having to press a button. Additionally, unlike an assistant tied to a smartphone, Echo has no UI other than your voice. So no matter how sandy your hands are, no matter how covered in dirt, if you want Echo to do something new, you're going to have to walk over to it and get it dirty.
Voice assistants are a powerful weapon in the next personal computing war. It's why we have four flavors of them right now from Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon. The data they collect about users is invaluable to those companies. Ostensibly, the utility they bring those same users is steadily morphing from "occasionally helpful" to "expected and necessary." Thirty years ago, when Zach Morris was sporting his giant cellphone on Saved by the Bell, I thought they were interesting, conceptually. But did I need one? No. Who really needed to be able to call someone from their car? Or when they were outside? Fast forward to today, where I get dry mouth and mild panic attacks if I realize I left my phone on the counter at home. That's where the AI assistant is going.
Amazon sees the trend and wants to get, not just Prime streaming, but Alexa onto as many devices and into as many hands as they can. As they add more features to Alexa, like traffic and weather reports, they want you to rely on it and expect it to be there wherever you go. Hence, Fox.
I'll be very curious to see how Amazon pulls this off.

Yoyo (1965) Pierre Étaix, Claudine Auger, Philippe Dionnet, Comedy, Drama, Family
A man has everything: dozens of servants, a palace, vast woods, gardens, a lake, mechanical toys, private entertainment troupes of musicians and dancers. He has it all – but love. When alone, he sits at a desk, sighing, and looking at a photograph of a pretty girl. One day, the circus descended onto his palace, and amidst all the fun it brought, he recognized the Amazon on the white horse – the girl in the photograph. The girl is now the mother of a small boy, Yo-Yo, whom she considers that looks like the millionaire, even under a clown's make-up. The boy will spend some time in the palace, in awe of so much riches, but he will leave (in a dream-like scene) on the tusks of the elephant. Time passes – and one day Yo-Yo will be the owner of his father's palace in decay. Starting from scratch, he will rebuilt it, and be praised as a great clown, an artist, a film-maker, a millionaire.
All Monsters Attack / Godzilla's Revenge / Gojira-Minira-Gabara: Oru kaijû daishingeki (1969) Ishirô Honda, Kenji Sahara, Machiko Naka, Tomonori Yazaki, Action, Adventure, Family
Ichiro is a highly imaginative, but lonely, boy growing up in urban Tokyo. Every day he comes home to the empty apartment he shares with his railroad worker father and his restaurant hostess mother. His only friends are a toy maker name Shinpei Inami and a little girl named Sachicko. The only other kids that are around is a gang of kids led by a bully named Gabara. To escape his loneliness, Ichiro imagines that he is on Monster Island where he befriends Minya, the son of Godzilla. It is through his daydreams that he watches Godzilla and Minya fight other monsters, including one also named Gabara who is just as bad a bully as the one that is tormenting Ichiro. It is through these daydreams that he learns that it is okay to fight back and face his fears. These lessons also help him to outwit a couple of bumbling bank robbers as well as finally have the guts to stand up to Gabara and his gang.
The Kid from the Big Apple (2016) Jess Teong, Lung Ti, Sarah Tan, Jessica Hester Hsuan, Drama, Family
Elders see the younger generations as eyesores because of their overly 'westernised' (wild/ care free) behaviour and poor moral's. Whilst the youngsters on the other hand, have no time for their elders, who to them seem belong in a museum. Sadly, this is a growing global phenomenon. It is the director's intent to tell this tale in a witty, comical manner and in doing so, hoping that this little slice of life will touch the audiences' heart.

Hearthstone: Inngrimsch #2408
i will watch it too i guess tomorrow morning as it wont be subbed in the next 2 1/2 h ;P atleast the PV looked funny
Hearthstone: Inngrimsch #2408
Ive been mostly buying my blu-rays off amazon. Half the $ amount required for free shipping, and usually much lower prices than rightstuf. Another good thing is you can save items to your wishlist, and it'll show when the price drops from the original (original from when you added it, instead of the suggested price)
Well first episode of Inu to Hasami is already on Crunchyroll (so HorribleSubs torrent).
Kind of a weird show. First episode was decent though.
This was the first season of anime that I have actually watched anime every week (i did watch gj-bu last season, but that was it), and I tried to watch basically everything (missed one or two). I don't think I'm going to do it again, mainly because of how painful it was to get through some of them. Literally just finished Arata the Legend and it was probably the worst thing I have ever seen, and beats Photo Kano for the worst show of the season (imo).
Tall, flat, and sadist with a MC voiced by Sakurai instead of another Kaji Yuki and supposed tons of yandere later on. It's perfect.
Photo Kano had nice animation and Nyaruko has a few funny moments (RDG was one of the few i skipped). Arata, on the other hand, (imo of course) didn't have any redeeming qualities. The villain's reason for fighting was utterly stupid, and the MC was horrible. It also used the word "trust" far too many times.
And yeah, I have problems dropping shows. I always feel obliged to finish it.

Hm, I've always heard really good things about the manga and OVA. I'm guessing he's just absurdly dense and there's very little progression in the relationship over a long time? That's probably what I hate the most about romance MCs.
I can tell at a glance for a lot of shows whether or not I'll like them. There are always exceptions, and I'll usually hear about how good those are around halfway through a season and I'll just catch up before it's done airing.
I also have a problem with not dropping shows I'm not enjoying. Red Data Girl bored the hell out of me but I was already halfway through so I thought I might as well finish it. Same with Nyaruko, Valvrave (not so much boring but just not very good IMO), Dansai Bunri, etc. I suck at dropping things once I'm 3+ episodes in. Probably a minor case of OCD.
I tell books by their covers far too much seeing how much I read, but I've stopped doing that with anime unless it's dead obvious (and then I can just double check it by the description of the show). How far are you into Valvrave? Closer to the ending the show gets far better. Slower start because it's going to be 25 episodes split-cour.
I've finished Valvrave, still think it's pretty bad overall. A bit too absurd for me, I suppose. I'll probably watch the next series just because I've seen the first. A slow start is definitely NOT the impression I got, lol. I just think it's far too ridiculous and my suspension of disbelief only goes so far. I enjoy it the most when it doesn't take itself too seriously, which wasn't very often near the end.
I mostly go by episode reviews and first impressions posts by various anime blogs I enjoy to weed out the bad stuff, I'm just typically right when something looks like I won't enjoy it. Most of the romcom and moe stuff is typically passed over, just because so few are worthwhile nowadays. When one's great I'll just wait for other people to inform me so I don't have to test them all out myself.
http://psgels.net/ is the guy I like the most, his tastes always seem to be very similar to mine and he'll watch the first episode or two of every show each season and give some first impressions.
Anyone watch the Kara no Kyoukai movies? Thoughts on them?
Just finished watching the first one, it was pretty good. Was kinda confusing, but the OST and animation were awesome.

"What would Marc do?" That's a question that Magazine Publisher Randy Noles asked himself when he looked at his future. Randy had always dreamed of getting his Master's degree, but work and family obligations kept him busy and he never followed through.

iBrand is a new book from Pamela and Olivia Sain in tribute to Gary Sain, the branding expert and tourism executive who died suddenly in 2012. It's a showcase of his published articles, notes, presentations, testimonials from friends and much more, and celebrates the good life lessons that they fear are in danger of becoming obsolete.

Directed colloidal synthesis of conductive organic-inorganic hybrid mesoscale structures is reported. The technique is simple but allows hierarchical assembly and 2D patterning of materials. A focused laser spot is used to direct the colloidal assembly of nanoparticles into electrically conductive organic-inorganic hybrid mesoscale filaments with arbitrary permanent patterns on a glass surface.

In which Shawn and Kim wonder if anything but a bloodbath save this season now? Shawn: I'm not going to have many complaints when they finally bring back my Maggie, Jesus, and Daryl to start the episode and then end with an actually interesting ending and in-between don't torture me with Carl or Father Gabriel. I mean, that's quite a formula for success. It seemed like a shorter episode, which is even better compared to the previous couple. I had a few thoughts along the way. Catching up with The Hilltoppers is not my ideal setting for a whole episode.
Recently in T & A
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'The Other Side'
"Wouldn't watch that episode again. Not even if you paid me." - Kim
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Bury Me Here'
"Dumbing down the show just makes it dumb." - Shawn
In which a bad cantaloupe does some irreparable damage. Shawn: As low as the show has gotten the past couple episodes, this was a tick up. A tick because there still was no Negan, Daryl, or Jesus again. I was left feeling a little better about where this episode pointed us. A little. A few random thoughts to try to tie together my feelings as we roll towards the finale. One bad cantaloupe can spoil your day. I've had nights ruined by bad peanuts but I have always had a fear of bad cantaloupe. I wondered why everyone else wasn't
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Say Yes'
"I don't have any more points to make, because I'm very underwhelmed by this show these days." - Kim
In which Kim and Shawn say no to "Say Yes". Kim: Another week, another character-focused episode that does next to nothing to further the story line. Allow me to share with you what I learned during last night's episode. 1.) Rick and Michonne are super horny most of the time. Also, chili-mac comes as an RTE. Who knew? 2.) The Garbage Pail Kids really dislike speaking in complete sentences. I'm sorry, but this makes it impossible for me to feel anything but contempt for these folks. Or should I say, "Contempt. No likey." 3.) Also, they don't know how to
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Hostiles and Calamities'
"My wonder from week to week now is are we going to see anything we care about?" - Kim
In which Shawn and Kim have the same thoughts about the episode where nothing happened. And they aren't positive. Shawn: Ridiculous. I guess I'd be on "Easy Street" if that was all I said about this episode. But what's an interrogation without a little torture. I sat through this and so I'll torture you too. Welcome to The Sanctuary - here's how it works around here. Oh, did we cover that already in your previous orientation? Well, did we tell you there's a number system? We did? Oh. Did we mention there's a barber? That's interesting, huh? And pickles. Really,
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'New Best Friends'
"I feel like I have a bigger picture of where this is all going now and there's a certain satisfaction of watching the pieces fall into place like an old familiar movie." - Shawn
In which Shawn and Kim have some pretty separate takes on the latest twist in the story. Shawn: If I felt like portions of the first half of the season were just long form advertisements for a new Walking Dead video game, then this week was a free playable demo that should be available for X-Box and PlayStation this week. Don't take that as too much of a criticism though because even though I will have some things to say and observations about some little things, I really didn't mind this episode at all. I feel like I have a
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Rock In The Road'
"Overall, I think this episode was much better than the first half of the season as a whole." - Kim
In which Rick is Rick again and zombies are dying by the handful. Kim: The Walking Dead has returned and here we are, all revved up and ready to tell you what we thought of the second-half premiere. I have two thoughts to start with and we'll just go from there. 1) This was everything I wanted it to be.2) This was everything I didn't want it to be. Now, I know you're wondering how the heck I could possibly have such bipolar feelings regarding a show. I mean, you either love it or you hate it, right? Wrong. I
The Best TV Shows of 2016
How many shows do their top-11 lists share?
In which Shawn and Kim take a look back at the brilliant storytelling shows from 2016. Shawn: If T&A is good at one thing, it's recognizing good and bad TV. Sometimes, those two things are all wrapped into one show. The end of the year is when I usually finish clearing out the DVR and assessing what shows will stay on the list and which ones need to be deleted to make room to try some new things. This is the Golden Age of television. It's probably more likely to call it the Golden Age of the Serial Story. The
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Hearts Still Beating'
"Jesus and Daryl were on the screen at the same time...was, quite possibly, the best 15 seconds in The Walking Dead's history." - Kim
In which there is a sense of redemption of the season to this point and a reason for hope. Kim: Mid-season finales are supposed to make you antsy for the break from your show to be over from the moment you finish watching. In past years, the show would end for the winter break, and I'd instantly look up the return date and start counting down the days until I could get another fix. This year, I'm more interested in my birthday at the end of February and how many people I can fit into an Uber. Aside from the
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Sing Me A Song'
"'It's going to be hard to watch.' - Negan warning us a little too late into the episode." - Shawn
In which Kim and Shawn are 50% more bored after being slapped in the face by this episode. Shawn: "Keep Going. Only thing here 4 you is boredom." - me paraphrasing one of the few things I still remember about this episode. "You know what's going to happen. It's going to be hard to watch." - Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) warning us a little too late into the episode. At some point our zombie show became The Negan Show. The network was kind enough to extend the episodes this season so we can figure out key plot points such as
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Swear'
"They called it 'Swear' because I swear it contained 13 minutes of actual storytelling." - Shawn
In which the dead horse moves closer to the end. Kim: With only two episodes left before the mid-season break, I'd like to take a moment to discuss what's really on everyone's minds: How badly this season sucks ass. So, I tuned in last night fully understanding that we would not see Carol, Morgan, or Ezekiel (or that damn tiger). We would not see Negan. We would not see Daryl. We would not see Rick, Michonne, Maggie, Sasha, or Jesus. I reluctantly sat to watch, knowing that this episode would feature characters that none of us honestly give a shit
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Go-Getters'
"The continued loss of interest is correlated to the lack of zombies for me." - Shawn
In which Carl has his first date and kiss. And nothing else happens. Kim: So, once again we all tune in to The Walking Dead and once again I'm left with feelings of anger and resentment for episode #(I don't really care), with the not-so-fitting name. I keep waiting for it to get better. I keep waiting for it to draw me in. It's just not doing any of that this season. In fact, there are really only two things I feel I need to talk about in regards to this episode. I'll give you my thoughts and then you
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'Service'
"I found myself wishing that Negan would just start killing people so we could move on from this." - Kim
In which the group gets reverse furniture delivery and Shawn and Kim watch. Shawn: Much like the actual plot development of this super-sized episode, I don't have many comments about this episode of The Walking Dead. I should have more to say in case we look back in a couple years to this as the point where viewers started abandoning ship. For now, I'll keep the good thoughts. "Service" The episode is so called because like any other job in the service industry, like working for Arby's or in the bathroom accessories department at Lowe's, this episode seemed to be
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'The Cell'
"I just hope there's a point to all of this that I'm just not seeing yet." - Shawn
In which Kim and Shawn contemplate naked Daryl and other things. Kim: Let me start by saying I have been waiting a long time to see Daryl naked. This was not the way I wanted that to go. I don't have a lot of thoughts on this episode, but I have a couple and you're going to have to sit there and take it, just like Rick and the gang did a few weeks ago. Take it like a champ, just as Abraham did. Psychological torture. That's what this episode is about. Not only what Dwight and Negan were doing
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'The Well'
"I hope we get some resolutions or this is going to be painful." - Kim
In which Shawn and Kim are left with just a weird feeling and more questions. Shawn: Not sure why they put a "the" in front of the title of this episode. I'd be happy with just a drawn out "wellllllll." After last week, I didn't really have a vision for how this week would go and I don't know if I've sufficiently processed this one. I have a few thoughts. It's an odd trip from Negan / Lucille to King Ezekiel / CGI Tiger, Shiva. A baseball bat in the hands of an enigmatic leader of a band of thieves
Thoughtful & Abstract: The Walking Dead: 'The Day Will Come When You Won't Be'
"In the words of Abraham, 'Suck my nuts,' writers/producers. We deserved better." - Kim
In which Kim and Shawn reflect on the cruel torture dished out by both Negan and the writers. Kim: After almost eight months of waiting, we finally got to find out who was at the receiving end of Negan's wrath. If you haven't seen it, stop reading now, because I've got some things to say about it. I'm going to start by saying I didn't completely hate this season opener, but there are some really huge things that are not sitting well with me. There's some seriously awesome potential here for this season, and I think we'll see some of
Thoughtful & Abstract: Arrow: 'Legacy'
"Overall, I give this a reserved thumbs up." - Shawn
In which T&A revisit the Arrow series and see where we stand to start the new season. Shawn: It's been awhile since you read our thoughts on the CW's DC Universe of shows. Truthfully, I was so disappointed through the whole Season Four of Arrow that I wasn't sure I was going to start the show back up for this current season. I was disinterested in the show from the initial episode of that season and only hate watched it because I was much more interested in the Universe as a whole. I've really enjoyed a majority of the past
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'Call and Response'
"I love this show in a way that other comic adaptations have fallen short." - Shawn
In which Kim and Shawn what you to know they aren't disappointed despite what you read. Kim: I sat last night to watch the season finale of Preacher. I grabbed some watermelon and a bottle of water, because I'm trying to not eat the chips. I figured if I was going to be seeing the last of Dominic Cooper, Ruth Negga, and Joseph Gilgun for a while, I may as well have something juicy to put in my mouth. Right off the bat, I can tell you that this was not what I expected. I actually spent the first ten
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'Finish The Song'
"This is still the best show currently airing." - Kim
In which Kim and Shawn are back in love with their Preacher. Kim: There comes a time in every television series when you take a deep breath, look back on what you've just witnessed, and are grateful for the time you've invested in it. This, for me, is one of those times. There were some serious 'Whoa!' moments and a couple of 'Awwwww!' moments, and it ended just as the episode began - with a giant "Holy shit!" Let me tell you about my favorite theme in this episode: Bromance! One of the more touching moments in this episode is
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'El Valero'
"Food court! Food court!"
In which things make a little more sense to Kim and Shawn, but that's not always a good thing for one of them. Kim: This week's write-up is painful. Look, I love Dominic Cooper and Ruth Negga. I really, really do. I love the characters in this shit hole town. I love the ideas behind this story and all that it entails. But when the best part of a show is some hick getting his dick shot off and carrying it around like it's his baby, I've got to say something. This is a slow burn, and it's the worst
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'He's Gone'
Just so you know, vanilla extract is flammable.
In which Kim and Shawn use the bullet-point button for an episode where not much happens. Kim: What I've learned this week: The power of suggestion, apparently, wears off. The heartbreak of Tulip and Jesse goes back a long, long way. Cassidy has feelings! Lots and lots of feelings! They use really shitty ketchup in this show. If you're going to Pokémon Go! at work, you need to bring your charger. Tulip looked amazing in that shirt and skirt. Tulip is done with everyone's shit. Vanilla extract is flammable. Cass' cheap shot with the fire extinguisher made me giggly. I
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'Sundowner'
"Everything feels headed in the right direction." - Shawn
In which the Sundowner fight redeems everything. Shawn: I certainly felt that there was a pacing shift here from the slight slow down of the past couple episodes. We were just about back to the craziness of the "Pilot" episode. I have a few observations that don't relate to men in underwear that I'm sure you will cover in detail. 1.) EVIL NOT DEAD. The fight in the Sundowner Motel to start the episode was easily the best fight since Cassidy brought down a plane and Tulip fought her way through the cornfield in the first episode. Killing characters that
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'South Will Rise Again'
"I'm worried that I won't get everything I need answered by the end of the season." - Kim
In which Kim and Shawn find themselves at the halfway point. Kim: So, we're halfway through this very short season of Preacher and I'm actually going to criticize it. Not because I don't absolutely love it, because I do. I'm going to bitch for a minute that there is a lot of time taken up by things that will make absolute zero sense to you if you don't read the comics or use Google. I refuse to do either, because I don't want to ruin the show. There are people out there who insist that things are better if you
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'Monster Swamp'
"It all comes together so seamlessly, to offer one surprise after another, keeping this show fresh and interesting." - Kim
In which Shawn and Kim discuss Preacher continuing to be accessible and not predictable. Shawn: This series started at 100 mph. And now at episode four I feel like it's slowing down with each episode. We started driving crazy through a corn field at seemingly faster than reality allows and airplanes falling out of the sky. This week we slowly fell into a hole and built an episode around pooping and peeing and raffling off a TV. I'm still in love with this show more than any other on the air right now. I have a few thoughts about what
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'Possibilities'
"It all felt different this week and I can't put my finger on the problem." - Shawn
In which Kim and Shawn keep waiting for the next big thing. Kim: I have to tell you, I'm more in love with this show every single time I watch it. I also have to tell you that I'm having a hard time saying anything new or original about it. Dominic Cooper - still hot Ruth Negga - still gorgeous So, what else does one say about a show that seems to be doling out one or two clues at a time regarding what's happening everywhere? I don't feel like this gives me much to write about, but… I am
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'See'
Stay gold, Preacher. You are off to a great start.
In which Kim and Shawn use the F-word to describe the series. Kim: The much anticipated second episode of Preacher has come and gone, and with it, all of my angst about shitty TV that just doesn't do anything for me. It is June. I generally watch zero TV from now until Fall. However, I'm already pretty sucked in to Preacher and looking forward to Sunday's premiere of Ride on Norman Reedus. What was that? Oh, it's not "on Norman Reedus", but with him, you say? Don't crush my dreams. But this is about Preacher and not Norman's arms, so
Thoughtful & Abstract: Fear The Walking Dead: 'Shiva'
"An amalgam of all of the crap rolled in to one last hurrah before getting a break." - Kim
In which Shawn and Kim welcome a merciful end to this half season. Shawn: We survived. I don't care about our group. It's you and I, T&A, that survived this torture of a season. I was so happy to have the cleansing power of Preacher before I sat down to watch the last episode of this half season, "Shiva". I felt such a relief at the end of that episode that I almost mentally erased the whole thing when I hit "delete" on the DVR. I've recalled a few things to finish this chapter of our reviews. Just a few.
Thoughtful & Abstract: Preacher: 'Pilot'
An above average start to what looks like a fun series with people blowing up.
In which Kim and Shawn are introduced to the television world of Preacher. Kim: Here is the write-up everyone has/I have been waiting for. I'm more than a little bit excited to finally be able to write it. Start bold, Kim. Put your thoughts out there. Don't hedge. Preacher is the TV show I have been waiting for since Sons of Anarchy ended. I was unable to watch it when it aired as it would have interfered with my daily routine of sleeping for just under seven consecutive hours every single day. So, I watched it on Monday and it
Thoughtful & Abstract: Fear the Walking Dead: 'Sicut Cervus'
"I didn't get enough Nick to make me happy and I can't bring myself to even say it was a mediocre episode." - Shawn
In which Shawn and Kim almost like an episode and want to talk owls but largely just can't wait for Preacher. Shawn: The title of this episode has some religious significance that's related to the initial scene at the church in the past. The same way that beginning needed subtitles to make sense is kinda how I ended up feeling about the rest of the episode. I was initially ready to compliment the episode on finally making sense but the more I mulled it over I'm not sure that it doesn't need more explanation. So without further ado I'll try
Thoughtful & Abstract: Fear The Walking Dead: 'Captive'
"Can we have more Patsy Cline tunes in future episodes?" - Kim
In which Shawn and Kim agree on two things: They are counting down to Preacher and they love Patsy Cline. Shawn: I think all we need to do to start each of these reviews is just include the countdown to the first episode of Preacher. That commercial was the best 30 seconds of this episode. But instead I'll start to unpack what I saw or at least think I saw in-between yawns. 1.) STEAK-UMMS. In the most uncomfortable seduction move of the season, Connor made Alicia a cheap steak that I think spelled out the words "do you like me
Thoughtful & Abstract: Fear The Walking Dead: 'Blood In The Streets'
Blood in the streets, Strand in the sheets.
In which Kim and Shawn look forward to Preacher. Kim: Yes, yes, yes. I tuned in for another week of this show. I don't know why I'm still doing it. Notice it took a lot longer this time around to get my opinions down on paper (so to speak). Oh well, here goes nothing. This time-jumping shit has got to go. It was fairly ridiculous to start with the future, move to the past, then to present with a parallel story, to more past and Strand is gay (I told you) or at least pretending to be. I think I

Genesis 4:1-8New International Version (NIV)Cain and Abel4 Adam[a] made love to his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain.[b] She said, "With the help of the Lord I have brought forth[c] a man." 2 Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. 4 And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, 5 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast. 6 Then the Lord said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? 7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it." 8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field."[d] While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.

If retired and disappeared in The Maldives after this weekend, he would still be referred to as on of the greats like Mansell, Schumacher, Prost, and Senna.

Having worked in cafes during my time at school to save money for travelling, I left knew when I left college that I wanted to stay in hospitality. Finding jobs in London is really tiring, and inploi removed the pain from the process. Now I have my CV setup, I can apply for barista jobs anywhere, (although I won't at the moment because happy with where I am!). Thanks to the team for all their help!
As a previous employer and chef, I know how hard it is to find good staff in London. The hospitality industry needs a new generation of skilled chefs, and inploi is well on its way to building a network of top talent. inploi made it easy for me to find opportunities with lots of different restaurants and kitchen teams. The best thing was knowing who I was applying to and my wage etc. before applying to the role. Recruitment needs to be more transparent – this is the future!
