![]() ![]() ![]() Less ‘run around shooting things’ and a lot more ‘looking around for things to climb on and jump to’. Since it was such a big franchise in the pop culture, I was of course familiar with the games existence & general concept, I even saw a trailer or two for the movies that followed, but when I actually got around to trying the series out all these years later, the gameplay was a lot different than what I was expecting. I had a PS1 for the last stretch of my high school years, but I never got around to playing any of the Tomb Raider games back then. AND NOW THAT WE’VE GOT ALL THE EXPLAINERS & DISCLAIMERS OUT OF THE WAY… HERE’S MY LIST OF 36 PLAYSTATION ONE GAMES THAT ARE STILL FUN TO PLAY TODAY: This is just a list of games that I still find personally enjoyable playing as an elder millennial in the 2020s & the ones that I find myself reaching for most often + it should be noted that I don’t really care much for fighting games or button-mashing beat ‘em ups or too-much-on-the-screen-at-one-time shooters or turn based strategy RPG games (no matter how ‘critically acclaimed’ they are on the Youtubes & Reddits). Please keep in mind that this list is not really in a ranked order and it is definitely not an attempt at creating a “best PS1 games ever” list ( so prepare to adjust your “how could you not include _?!” outrage appropriately). So, since I also did a lot of searching for “best ps1 games” or “most underrated ps1 games” or “ps1 games that are still worth playing today” or “hidden gem ps1 games” once I was done googling the same “how to hack a sega mini” queries that have been directing people to my blahg quite consistently, I figured I should put together some console specific lists too… because SEO, innit? More recently, I’ve been noticing that my most visited website pages, month after month, were my blog posts about retro video gaming (even though I am very clearly a ‘ not a music blog, not not a music blog’), and most of those visits were coming from Google’rs. I guess that’s why they say hindsight is 2020. ![]() And once one goes down that online retro video gaming rabbit hole, one eventually realizes that one could have been playing any old retro video game right on one’s old iMac the whole time. This was heavily influenced by me ordering a Sega Mini to hook up to the tv I won at a Super Bowl party right before the world went on a never-ending lockdown quarantine, but the thing that really kicked the new hobby up a notch was realizing that that Sega Mini could be hacked to add any old retro video game from any old retro video game console. As I mentioned in my other top/fave retro video games lists, 2020 was the year I got back into playing retro video games from my youth. ![]()

Last week she was invited by a movie studio to the Hollywood premiere of "Domino," which is about a female bounty hunter. There is already one reality TV show on the air about a real-life bounty hunter and Scott said she has been getting offers for her own series. Her detractors also resent that she's become a media darling, despite limited bounty hunting experience. But for me it's the fact that I have the drive and the ambition to be the best." "I am considered a newbie having been in the business for just about a year. "I'm definitely not a veteran bounty hunter," Scott said. Scott doesn't deny her colorful past, but doesn't believe it hurts her current career. Scott has been criticized by veteran bounty hunters who believe her past working in the adult film industry and wrestling hurt her credibility as a bounty hunter. "If this makes my child happy, then I totally support her," Scott's mother said. Scott has the authority to arrest, an authority given to her by bail bondsmen who have custody of suspects they bailed out. "You have to be able to read body language." "To be a great bounty hunter, you really have to have that sixth sense where you can size people up and read them, all in just a moment's notice," Scott said. She later became a private investigator and then a bounty hunter. When she was 14, Scott was attacked in a park near her house, and her testimony helped lock up the attacker. Scott has been bounty hunting for the past year, but got her start putting criminals behind bars when she was a teenager. You know, if I'm not chasing a bargain and I'm not chasing a sale, I'm chasing a fugitive." "Bounty hunting is definitely an addiction for me," said Scott, 39. But after she kisses her husband and kids goodnight, she heads out for her second job as a bounty hunter tracking down fugitives. 17, 2005 — - By day, Sandra Scott is a stay-at-home mother of two. ![]() ![]() ![]() However, despite this program’s versatility, it still has some gaps that other FTP clients can provide.

The excellent stretchability, robust elasticity, high toughness, fatigue resistance, and biocompatibility of the hydrogel demonstrated its vast potential in the biomedical field and flexible electronic devices. In addition, the cytotoxicity test in vitro proved that the hydrogel showed good biocompatibility with normal human liver cells (LO2 cells). The hydrogels also showed robust elasticity and fatigue resistance, and the compression strength did not show any decline, even after 100 successive cycles, as well as promising self-recovery property. Owing to hydrophobicity-assisted multiple hydrogen bonding interactions among phenylalanine derivatives, the hydrogels exhibited fascinating mechanical behaviors: tensile strength of 0.35 MPa, elongation at break of 2100%, tearing energy of 1134 J/m 2, and compression strength of 3.56 MPa. ![]() In this work, an advanced hydrogel was prepared from acrylamide and N-acryloyl phenylalanine by one-pot free-radical copolymerization.

Insomniaĭuring this time, it will be very hard to get a good night’s sleep. Try and pay attention to your eyes and if they seem overly wet or if your emotions are running high, making you cry often. This occurs because of a combination of issues, but it also adds to the flu-like symptoms you will be feeling. Your eyes will seem to be tearing up almost constantly or you will cry often. Sometimes this confuses people going through opioid withdrawal, especially those who are taking hydrocodone as a medication and not abusing it. You may need medication to help minimize this symptom, if it is extremely intense. You might feel bone and joint pain as well, and it can very uncomfortable. These aches will come from the absence of hydrocodone in your body, as the drug was numbing your sensations of pain when it was in your system.

If you suddenly stop taking, you may experience withdrawal symptoms.” Sometimes it is difficult to know for sure if you are experiencing withdrawal from the drug, even if you have been abusing it. National Library of Medicine warns, “If you have taken a hydrocodone combination product for several weeks or longer, do not stop taking the medication without talking to your doctor. ![]() ![]() ![]() Promising Young Woman never glorifies the torment that often serves as a catalyst for women’s revenge stories. That Fennell never depicts violence against women, instead focusing on Cassie’s quest for revenge and trusting audiences to understand how violating and traumatizing Nina’s experience was – not just for her but for those who loved her most – is one of the most important elements of the film. She’s just a woman who is fed up and is finally doing something about it. And she’s certainly no man - protected by plot armor and a sense of ego-stroking righteousness in his crusade against some bad apples tarnishing his gender’s on-screen reputation. She doesn’t fall into the stereotypes that regularly plague women’s revenge stories, eschewing the idea that a woman must be battered or scorned to deserve a chance at retribution. Instead, she’s reveling in the sense of invincibility her simmering rage often feeds. Cassie isn’t brandishing weapons or planning elaborate schemes to punish the men who hurt Nina - not at first. Not just against societal views of women that cling to life through generations like cockroaches, but against the systems in place that make it easy for perpetrators to move past their transgressions and impossible for their victims to do the same. When writer/director Emerald Fennell tells the story of Cassie (Carey Mulligan), a 30-something college dropout so consumed by grief after her friend Nina commits suicide that she doles out a tame method of vigilante justice on men who make sport of violating women the same way Nina once was, it’s more than fulfillment fantasy, it’s a form of protest. Promising Young Woman is a perfect example. Revenge movies now have something to say, not only about the cruel, animalistic nature of mankind but of the evolving meaning of arbitrary concepts like “right” and “wrong.” A good revenge movie causes us to question, contemplate, and contend with our collective humanity and the systems in place that are meant to – but don’t necessarily succeed in – upholding it. ![]() What began as an exercise in 70s horror exploitation with movies like I Spit On Your Grave and Lipstick has morphed into a narrative model with more than just violent delights and violent ends to its name. If those philosophers were so insistent on convincing us that vengeance is such an empty thing that they tripped over each other to pen dramatic warnings about graves digging themselves and wounds festering, well, revenge must feel pretty damn good, right? Watching it play out on screen certainly does, and there’s no shortage of movies that trade on the entertainment value of getting even. Men like Nietzsche, Gandhi, and Socrates were pop culture’s original gatekeepers. ![]() ![]() Monjack also appeared to have had money trouble. When Brittany married him I warned her and warned her as did so many others.” “We were forced to settle with him as he held our production over a barrel.” In another post on Hollywood Elsewhere, Hickenlooper wrote about Monjack: “He is a con man and a bad guy. According to a post by Hickenlooper on the Hollywood Elsewhere blog, Monjack had “nothing to do” with the movie’s development but falsely claimed that the movie’s script had been stolen from him and “held us hostage,” Hickenlooper wrote. Other Hollywood trouble included a spat with director George Hickenlooper, who claimed that Monjack had muscled his way to a producer’s credit on Factory Girl, a biopic of Edie Sedgwick. set of Across the Hall had become “increasingly bizarre.” A major issue, according to the gossip column, was Murphy’s “ever-present oddball husband,” who “lurks around the set and intervenes so much that producers had to call a meeting to discuss how to deal with him.” Shortly after their wedding in 2007, New York Post’s Page Six reported that Murphy’s behavior on the L.A. “We checked in with each other over the years and remained friends,” she said. The couple met when Murphy was just 17, the actress later told OK Magazine. In 2001, he married Simone Bienne, a British TV presenter and self-described “sex and relationship expert.” But five months after their gunshot wedding in Las Vegas, the couple got divorced.įor a spell, Monjack dated Alexandra Kerry, the daughter of Massachusetts Senator John Kerry, according to the New York Post. You’re going to be on some kind of medicine.”Īt the time of his death, Monjack, a Brit, was known in Hollywood as a sometime director, with a history of messy romantic entanglements, bad debt, and other legal trouble. “If you have a heart condition, you’re going to have prescription medication for yourself. “I don’t believe he had an overdose,” the spokesman said. "We're not sure if it is natural causes or a possible accident, maybe because of the prescription medication found there," Ed Winter, the assistant chief coroner in L.A., told People magazine on Monday.Ī family spokesman, meanwhile, told the magazine that Monjack was due for a bypass. And, yet again, reports have surfaced that there were significant amounts of prescription medications in the house. The final autopsy report later pointed to “multiple drug intoxication,” though it found no evidence of illegal drugs. ![]() ![]() ![]() Trend data isn't available for a 12-month view.
