![]() I'd like to decapitate that Catherine witch and use her head for a cannonball! How dare she mingle with my affairs! You don't give daughters a choice! Of course she won't marry that dear old duke now! O I could have mingled in the highest circles! Owned a castle in the Gordian Glades! Damn the witch, damn her! Purity, Commander! That is what we have achieved! We thought it lay condensed in the works of Claudella, but we were deceived! Sin lay there congealed until her guilty conscience could bear her trespass no longer, and she revealed it to the world. We've won a couple of victories, commander, but don't let them go to your head! You're still no more than a mountaineer standing beneath the snowline, gazing up at the summit. Persevere, Commander, and civilisation will come crashing down around you. The leader who gives licence to debauchery gives licence to the moral corruption of his entire society. Hahaha! By Grom the Giant's Codpiece, what an uproar that ledger caused! Unseen in history! Those whose name has been disgraced have fled the realm and all the others are lapping up every last sordid detail with the gusto of a dwarf bent backwards in a vat of ale! ![]() Why don't you have a chat with your wife? She's a stickler for the law, but you know what they say: better safe than sorry. There are many shortcuts in Dragon Commander Very wise of you, commander! I knew you'd see right through the dwarves' evil scheme! Ta very much, commander! It took you a while to see the light, but you made a proper business decision in the end! These bastards of warlords are a gift to commerce, commander, and by golly you don't look a gift warlord in the mouth! The people's taxes have to be spent somewhere, I suppose. So today's talk of the town is an international court of law, something which will basically consist of nothing more than a legal hodgepodge inferior to stout dwarven justice. I have you to thank for this, my love, and I shan't forget. In all seriousness though, I am glad to let go of all my bitterness and regrets. Good! Yes, wonderful! The days of that demon dwarven drink are numbered! A victory for the Seven, commander! That's right! For I bet they don't even like the few dwarves that are actually pious! I shan't eat it every day, but surely I can have it again without becoming a monstrous ghoul! Good show! Let us celebrate all mothers in the land! Bosoms aplenty and an infant on every nipple! Huzzah!Įver since that glorious meal I have been re-evaluating the elf dictum that says eating meat is some kind of great, unholy evil. These balloons really wobble too much! - HIC! ![]() Wise hawks and falcons I have sent out to locate the best and most beauteous spot in Rivellon where we will build your castle! Then, a capital we'll build around your castle! And an empire around that capital! An empire that will stand for a thousand years! Your Troopers will have the Spoils of War ability for one combat round. Our studies show Oberon is correct, commander! Sure, it took our researchers a very long time to write down their results, which they did in the weirdest of phrases, and for some reason they ate and ate and ate, but one simply cannot dismiss their deductions! I therefore declare you emperor! Long live the emperor! We as their representatives have witnessed your triumphs with mounting awe, and have agreed you are to be the one: the hero who shall both restore the kingdom and recommence the workings of government. But now it's too late! They have too much power! Dark is the day when the dead outdo the living!Ĭombat and carnage! Huzzah! You showed 'em, commander! I've always said the undead should be wiped out, every last one of them. How many are available to you is listed on the left side of your status bar, That rotten swamper has gone from bad to worse! I keep hoping a man so full of himself is bound to burst like a bubble, but, alas, his constitution seems to bear his conceitedness-the damn pillock! All in all I'd say this has been a productive day. This decision will endear you in the hearts of many and shame the dwarves for the neglect of their own brother. I wouldn't give up on this right in a hurry, indeed I wouldn't! It allows you to keep your friends close and your enemies closer! Take Oberon and I for instance: enemy and friend. You're determined to see the first ever depressed imp, aren't you? Cause you're getting there! Not again, commander! 'No' to Project Megabomb, 'no' to Project Super Soldier.

What is the process of writing your music? It’s called ‘The Early Morning Song’, yes I do have a file of it somewhere but it isn’t released anywhere yet. What was the title of your first original song? Did you record it? Besides relatability, I think vulnerability, authenticity, good story telling skills, and a wide imagination.

I honestly don’t remember much of it, but I got in made it to the Finals and was one of the winners. I never understood the impact of my singing, and I think I still continue to try to wrap my head around it.Īside from singing in school and church programs, It was a singing contest for a Brand that took place in a mall, when I was 11years old. I’ve gotten so much feedback from my subscribers throughout the years about how my music either brings them back to a memory, helps them sleep, allows them to re center and relax, and even saves them. Easy listening, relaxing, nostalgic alternative is I think the best way I can describe it. ![]() It was perfect for her because this guitar is a fruit of my work. What is your guitar of choice now? Year, make and model? Does she have a name?Ī post shared by Reneé Dominique go to and favorite is definitely my Taylor Grand Concert 12 Fret. My first guitar is named Savannah, and my first ukulele is named Eli. – My parents bought both my guitar and ukulele for me. How did you get your first guitar and first ukulele, and do you still have them? I had a little crush on a guy at the time, and I had so many emotions I didn’t know how to express that I find myself writing my first song ‘The Early Morning Song’ on my notebook. But I started properly writing real songs when I was around 12-13 years old. – I’ve always hummed melodies I made up, and at 2 years old I ‘composed’ my first ever gibberish song called ‘Ti Ti La La’ which translated to ‘I love you, Grampa’, and dedicated it to him for Grandparents’ Day. I went back to Homeschooling, and at 13, with a ukulele and just an iPad in my bedroom, I braved myself into creating a YouTube Channel. I trained in basketball and wall climbing, but eventually gravitated back to my first love. ![]() I developed a passion for sports since I was the only girl in my dad’s side of the family. I’ve always loved singing and performing, but as I grew up, I forgot about it for a while. And because I spent so many of my days in the studio, I unconsciously developed a quick ear in learning melodies quickly and at the age of 4, I landed my first recording job. I would be in the studio with my parents as they worked long hours for TV & Radio commercials. I was exposed to music as early when I was conceived in my Mom’s womb and being born in an environment where music is a major part of everyday living. My parents are both professional voice talents- my mom being a voice teacher, and my dad a singer/performer. ![]() A post shared by Reneé Dominique was born and raised in Manila and I come from a family of musical people. ![]()
It said the IDPC had allowed LinkedIn to have a look at "a non-public Preliminary Draft Decision that proposed a fine" in April this year. Microsoft said of the watchdog's action that it had "cooperated throughout the period of inquiry." The only place in the member state coalition that charges less tax is Hungary, which pulls in just 9 percent from businesses. There are places elsewhere in Europe with lower rates, but Ireland is the only one within the EU, which gives it crucial access to the single market. The Republic of Ireland has one of the lowest corporate tax rates in Europe at 12.5 percent. That includes Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta, Twitter, Amazon, Etsy, Zalando, Groupon, PayPal, AirBnB, Uber, Siemens, HP, Intel, Dell, Symantec, EA, Zynga, Adobe, Dropbox, Salesforce and SAP. The Irish watchdog oversees these cases because various tech giants set up EU shop here for the easy-breezy tax rates.

Q: Short on time, have DuFour frozen puff pastry on hand. I would 100% make this dessert again so good! The apples were incredible, you could tell the brandy was there but it wasn’t overly boozy. I even ripped a hole in the puff pastry and it was super forgiving and I patched it up with some excess pastry. Everybody said it is amazing because it wasn’t too sweet and it teases your tastebuds a little. I made it for my aunts Christmas party and everyone loved it! The puff pastry was the hardest thing to make, but it still came out amazing! I’d definitely recommend doing everything separately the day before and assembling and baking the day you want to serve. Showstopper! This was the all time best dessert I’ve ever made. Making puff pastry in advance or using frozen puff pastry saves time the day of. I ended up cutting the apples into 1/4" slices and subbed apple juice for brandy and walnuts for almonds. Baking the apples in the syrup mixture imparts so much flavor, but it doesn't make the tart too sweet. I made it for New Years and everyone loved it. This is my favorite apple dessert by far. I won’t make as written again, but will adjust to get more moisture. ![]() It’s missing a custard base or something. Made exactly as written but in the end had delicious glazed apples sitting atop a dry bed of almonds. Delicious apple sauce, but applesauce nonetheless. Have you made this recipe? Let us know how you liked it in the comments below.Įditor's Note: This recipe was modified slightly on August 13, 2021.My apples turned to applesauce when baking. If the thought still makes your brain hurt, you don't need to do anything fancy. It’s surprisingly easy to make-promise! All you need to do is stack a dozen or so slices together tightly, then place them over the crust cut side-down, shingled slightly. We skipped the sauce completely and macerated the slices in brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla to make sure they got nice and jammy in the oven. In a classic French recipe, you're supposed to cook down an apple compote to go on top of the crust and under the spiral of apples. Need some help deciding? Consult our list on all of the different types of apples, and how to use them. We’re partial to Granny Smith, Honeycrip, and Gala, but you can really use any baking apple that you prefer in this recipe! Use one variety, or a couple to really mix it up and keep things interesting. The results are way more delicate and not as sweet as a shortbread shell, but provides the perfect base for our apples. Instead of graham crackers, you use all-purpose flour in this simple crust. ![]() The best part about this recipe? You don’t need to roll out the crust, or chill it! Inspired by the good ol’ graham cracker crust, it's a simple stir-and-press mixture that uses a lot of melted butter. Keep reading on to discover just what makes this classic apple tart so special, and all the top tips to ace it yourself: After rounds and rounds of testing, and with the help of many people on the Delish team, I finally did it. I tossed and turned trying to figure out how to make a gorgeous but easy apple tart that's worthy of your Thanksgiving table (or any fall dessert spread).

Most patients are treated with a combination of high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation patients with impaired functional status are treated with chemotherapy alone. Renal complications are common, including myeloma cast nephropathy, light chain deposition disease, amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis with renal involvement, and nephrocalcinosis. Plasma cell proliferation can also result in osteolysis and hypercalcemia. The proliferation of plasma cells suppresses normal bone marrow function, which may lead to anemia, bleeding, and/or infection. This condition is sometimes discovered incidentally in asymptomatic individuals. MM is more common in older adults and manifests with nonspecific symptoms ( fever, night sweats, weight loss), symptoms of hypercalcemia, bone pain, and/or back pain. Malignant plasma cells produce monoclonal proteins (also known as M proteins or paraproteins) such as abnormal immunoglobulins (e.g., IgG, IgA) and free light chains (e.g., Bence Jones proteins). Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell dyscrasia characterized by uncontrolled proliferation and diffuse infiltration of monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow.

Abrams) published Wacky Packages, a compact-sized 240-page hardcover with reproductions of the 223 stickers in the first (1973 to 1974) seven series of Wacky Packages. In 2008, to celebrate the 35 th anniversary of The Topps Company’s successful “reboot” of those subversive, satirical, and popular consumer product parodies that amused and even obsessed many kids – including Yours Truly – from 1973 to 1975, Abrams ComicArts (an imprint of New York publisher Henry N. ![]() (Like their 1980s descendants, the Garbage Pail Kids, they were not only sought after by kids, but were often confiscated by teachers who were tired of the constant disruptive effect that they had in their classrooms many avid collectors loved to trade Wackys with their fellow students at school, sometimes at the most inopportune times.) But when they were re-introduced in 1973, the first seven series of stickers (1973-1974) became “must have” items for many Wackys-obsessed kids. More than likely, if you were around 10 years old in 1973 when Topps – known for its Bazooka Chewing Gum and various trading card lines, including baseball, pro football, and pop culture-themed collectible cards – you probably collected such twisted, even ghoulish stickers as “Crust Toothpaste,” “Kentucky Fried Fingers,” “Mountain Goo,” “Fearasil Complexion Cream,” and “Shrunken Donuts.” (And if by chance you didn’t collect “Wackys,” you probably knew someone in school or the street where you lived who did.)
