Resident Evil 6

New RE6 trailer showing amaziness :P I TOLD YOU ALL, SHE IS SHERRY :D
CAPCOM going big with Resident Evil
2012 is quickly becoming one of Capcom's busiest years to date.
The company started off by announcing Resident Evil 6 for this November and followed up with releases of Resident Evil: Revelations, Asura's Wrath, and Street Fighter X Tekken. In the coming months, fans can expect to see Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, Dragon's Dogma, Devil May Cry, and Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor.
During the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco last week, we discussed a variety of topics with Capcom's SVP of planning and business development Christian Svensson, including the company's expectations for Resident Evil 6, what the new iPad means for console gaming, and why they keep having all those typos.
Game Informer: Can you talk about the decision behind the timing of the announcement of Resident Evil 6? It seemed like it took attention away from Revelations and Operation Raccoon City, both due out a few months later.
Christian Svensson: That would be the conventional wisdom. However, we don't think conventionally. We thought it would actually raise the awareness of all things Resident Evil, and as it turns out it did. Our preorders for Revelations and Raccoon City were both helped on an upward spike with the announcement of Resident Evil 6. The pre-orders for Resident Evil 6 are off to a fantastic start. The best start a Resident Evil game has ever had.
Why announce the November 20 release date so far out? The holiday season is already getting pretty crowded with other games.
We're saying, "Get the hell out of the way." We're a big game. We're letting you know we're coming. We're giving people plenty of room to move around us. The other part is the nuts and bolts of it. If we put our stake in the ground, we can start lining up retail channel promotions, etc.
The trailer for Resident Evil 6 caters to both the original Resident Evil fans and newer fans. SEGA is currently dealing with a similar issue with Sonic having a split fan base and trying to cater to both. What's it like having your biggest franchise at Capcom being split up like that?
I think Revelations did a good job of appealing to both audiences. There are classic elements in that game. I don't think it's at all an impossibility. I won't get into the details too much about what the Resident Evil 6 team's intentions were because we'll talk about that more at Captivate. I think they'll say the same thing, and that is part of the fun is figuring out how to scratch the itch of both audiences.
In terms of sales expectations for Resident Evil 6, you're probably expecting it to be your biggest game to date in the series and it'll have a massive marketing budget?
The plan is the biggest Resident Evil game ever. We're not messing around.
A Resident Evil 6 demo is included with Dragon's Dogma. The perception is that this move is an attempt to create more buzz for Dragon's Dogma than anything else.
We have a few months to fix the buzz for that title. Obviously the inclusion of the demo raises the profile of the game. Hopefully we can find some new fans, transfer some love from Resident Evil 6 to Dragon's Dogma. It's a strategy that's worked for several other games in the past. We think it's going to be successful here, too. Ideally, Dragon's Dogma becomes an ongoing, living thing for us.
The sales of Asura's Wrath were 36,000 in the U.S. for the launch month. How would you evaluate that?
Kind of as predicted, frankly. It went about almost exactly how we thought it would. We also knew it was going to be pretty polarizing. The concept of playing a high-octane Japanese anime -- it found a specific audience, which we figured it would do.
Capcom recently announced the Onimusha mobile game. I think most fans are disappointed that Onimusha came back as a mobile game.
Right now our mobile roadmaps and our console roadmaps are separate. Over time you're actually going to see more of the decision-making be a bit more unified in our approach when thinking about our brands.
I understand there's an audience of fans that want to see a console-based Onimusha. Sorry, there's nothing I can talk about on that front. In the meantime we'll see how the mobile game does and make some judgments from there. Right now there aren't even any plans for a Western release for the mobile product that we announced. A lot of the mobile content that we have coming out of the Tokyo studio is specifically for Japan, although more and more if it we'll be finding ways to bring it to the West.
With the new iPad 3 announcement, could this change the shape of the console games industry given how powerful the device is?
Unless there are some fundamental changes to the input device, I don't think it changes the audiences meaningfully. I don't think it's the hardware capability that's the game changer. It will enable some new experiences but not meaningfully different enough to necessarily move core console gamers who only play console games off of there and onto the iPad exclusively.
What I do think is what is going to happen more and more is it's additive. People will play stuff on their iPad and iPhone and continue to play stuff on their console. I don't think they'll cannibalize it.
Now, if Apple introduced a controller, say a Bluetooth controller, and Apple TV worked on my TV properly with a proper AirPlay experience, then you're talking about something that could be a seismic shift and a real threat to the console space.
Double Fine's Kickstarter project is somewhat similar to the Mega Man Legends 3 project in that it allowed fans to offer input and see a project go through the development process.
I'm very happy for Tim [Schafer]. If anyone deserves that kind of love and support it's certainly those guys. They make great content and I'm really happy they get to do that.
However, I think they're one of the very few people that could pull this off and get that kind of support. They are a developer that doesn't necessarily have the capital to self-fund so the need is there. And as a result people are happy to open their wallets and support them. I think that if a publisher that has capital were to try this, I don't think the PR and fan reaction would be quite as positive.
I'm not saying there aren't some people that would. I think there are loads of people for specific brands that would open their wallets to demonstrate support for any amount. I'm not convinced companies like EA, Activision, or Capcom could ask fans to fund dormant franchises. That's a challenging prospect, I think.
I'll give you money for a new Breath of Fire game.
Knowing what you know now about the result of the Mega Man Legends 3 project, would you change anything in the decision-making process? Are you still happy you tried this experiment?
The transparency and involvement from the fans, it turned out to be a double-edged sword. In the end it's still something I want to do more of. I don't think we as an industry do enough of it. Being that transparent, unfortunately, opens the wounds much greater when something bad happens. I wouldn't have changed that.
As for the decision to not move forward with the project, I'd prefer to not comment on that.
There's been a recent explosion over Street Fighter X Tekken having downloadable content already on the disc. Was it more of a PR situation where you have to be better explaining to fans upfront what is going on with something like this?
It came down to a development process issue more than anything. I wish it had been done differently. I think it just becomes -- the rationality of what content costs to make and how you fund that content doesn't come into play here for the consumer. It's an emotional issue that I think we need to be sensitive to.
The other part of this is we could have had a better communication strategy around this back at the outset. Left to their own devices, consumers will always jump to the worst possible conclusion. I think what you'll see in the coming weeks the conclusions that were jumped to were not the correct ones.
Should we assume we're not getting Ace Attorney Investigations 2 here in the U.S.?
It is still an open discussion point. I'll never say never, but I also won't say it's going to happen. I haven't let go of that bone, and I hope the fans are still patient with us.
Can you talk about why games made today still have difficulty being translated and brought over to other countries? Similar localization issues existed during the NES-era as they do today.
There's no one reason. Sometimes it is a lack of localization resources available at that particular time. Sometimes it is a budgetary issue or there are no developer resources. Teams have moved onto something else. There are a million reasons and it varies project to project. The thing to remember, fans want quality work. They don't want shoddy QA and localization work. For that to happen it takes the original team and a lot of care and love in the localization of those projects.
For Ace Attorney, localization there is not just straight translating the text. People think it's all about plugging it into Google translate. That's not what it is. It's not easy to do in five or six languages. It's a lot harder than people think it is.
So Capcom has had some spelling errors pop up recently. Of course everyone remembers the Resident Evil: Revelations typo. Then there was an error on the Asura's Wrath promotional box. Capcom also misspelled the name of the company in the Steel Battalion trailer. What's going on here? How does this keep happening?
For Resident Evil: Revelations, I can't even tell you how many people looked at that package and approved it. Nintendo of America, Nintendo Japan, ESRB, I don't know how many people internally, and our guys in Japan. I can't come up with an excuse for it. It just happened. We're not happy about it.
There are new processes that were put in place that involve people outside the company. We've redefined who has final say over packaging. I'm cautiously optimistic we won't be seeing this happen again. It's embarrassing. I can't really sugarcoat it.
There are only about 90,000 units that have the misprint. If you've got it and it's shrink-wrapped, that's a new special edition, that's our new strategy. [laughs]
Capcom has just dropped a mess of new screens and details about Resident Evil 6.
Below is an official FAQ from Capcom that details a number of questions we've all had about the game, which comes out on November 20 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, with a later date for the PC version.
For more, check out the game's debut trailer and Tim's speculative dissection of its details.
It has already been revealed that Chris Redfield heads to China during the course of the game, but we can now confirm that the main location in China will be a fictitious coastal town called Lanshiang.
When does RE6 take place?
There has been some confusion surrounding when the game is set, so to set the record straight: Resident Evil 6 takes place in 2013.

I heard this one is starring Arnold Schwarzeneggar and it will have the same plot as Last Action Hero except instead of the axe murder guy as the villian it will just be Wesker.

Nice hair cut Leon.
As much as I hate RE4 and every Resident Evil game since then this I'm somewhat impressed by this. I'll have to see more, it looks like they've taking out the fucking Co-Op bullshit. So that's good.
|#10 Subject: Re:Resident Evil 6 Posted: 01/19/2012 14:39:00
Doesn't look like the 'old school RE with better controls' revival I was hoping for, but it already looks infinitely more interesting and atmospheric than RE5.

I was hoping for a slower paced more dramatic and scary game that threw back to the old entries. This definitely seems to be following in line with RE5 on the action front. Most likely online multiplayer included.

"Resident Evil 6 will also receive pre-order bonuses at GameStop, Best Buy and Amazon. According to Capcom, each retailer "will each get an exclusive map that will function with various modes in the game."
Fuck I hate this generation. Game looks great and it could very well be the first good Resident Evil game since RE4. Hopefully they will do something different with the gameplay because I'll probably turn my head the other way if it's another third person shooter. That part where you shoot the president better be actual gameplay as well.

After months of rumors that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie would be tapped as the GOP vice president nomineee, Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney instead .
Christie may now have the opportunity to serve as the GOP convention's keynote speaker later this month in Tampa, Fla. Being named the keynote speaker could open the door for Christie to run in 2016 and still allow him to serve a second term as governor.
"With Paul Ryan on the ticket, this is a team that understands the economic stagnation our country has been facing the last four years and the urgency with which we need to change course," Christed said in a prepared statement Saturday afternoon. "The Romney-Ryan team is uniquely positioned to make the tough choices necessary to confront our fiscal challenges and get results."
The New Jersey governor, who in the past has stated he was not interested in the vice presidential nomination, may have ultimately lost out in the long run due to his short fuse and short record. In just the last month, Christie branded a reporter as an "idiot" in Monmouth County and confronted an unknown resident on the Seaside Heights boardwalk.
Several Republicans who were in Norfolk, Va., during Romney's announcement told NJ.com that Christie needs to "tone down the smack talk" and "would have overshadowed Romney" during the campaign.
Romney's decision was lauded by New Jersey Republicans, including Congressman Rodney Frelinghuysen (D-11).
"I am pleased that Governor Romney has chosen one of our House leaders to be his running mate," Frelinghuysen said. "My colleague, Paul Ryan, is young, very intelligent and will be an excellent Vice President."
U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez also issued a statement, saying "four years of a Romney-Ryan administration would be disastrous for New Jersey's middle class."
"Mitt Romney has shown that he means business in his war against America's middle class by choosing as his running mate the architect of the budget plan that favors the nation's wealthiest people and corporations," Menendez said.
"Four years of a Romney-Ryan administration would be disastrous for New Jersey's middle class, who have shouldered too much of the tax burden. As a result of Rep. Ryan's proposed budget, seniors on fixed incomes would face greater hardship, as there would be an end to Medicare as we know it, and the Social Security system they spent most of their lives paying into would be privatized and subjected to the whims of the stock market. Proposed budget cuts would kill job growth and set back the fragile economic recovery. All of these would take a significant step forward to becoming reality with the election of Romney and Ryan."

The 10 Most Prescribed Drugs »
"April 20, 2011 - The 10 most prescribed drugs in the U.S. aren't the drugs on which we spend the most, according to a report from the IMS Institute for Healthcare Informatics.
The institute is the public face of IMS, a pharmaceutical "...
(levothyroxine sodium) Tablets, USP
- Patient Information:
Details with Side Effects

Acura TSX vs. Infiniti G25
compared to the regular diesel vehicles we owned it was fast. When drivers were tailgating when we were driving our 80 MT volvo diesel we would just downshift and give them a black cloud. We bought the 85 Volvo turbo-diesel around Oct/Nov 85. It had about 30,000 miles when it was totaled in Oct. 87. My husband was driving home from work on route 80 in the rain. Another driver cut him off causing him to hydroplane. He said he felt like the test-car dummy. No injuries but a totaled volvo. He was able to drive it home.
It seems that when anyone says they like to drive a manual they have undeniable urge to automatically add that one, they are special or two, anyone preferring an automotic is lazy. Why can't you just say I like driving a stick and leave it at that? It's not that special to be able to drive one and I don't feel that driving a stick inherently brings you closer to the soul of the family 4dr sedan then someone driving an automatic. It's just a preference as they both get about the same mpg now and in some cases autos get better. In fact, some people driving sticks probabably get worse mpg because they really don't know what they are doing. Just as I'm sure some sailboat captains really don't know what they're doing either.
Can't we all just state our preference without having to put somebody else down at the same time?
By the way, I've had about 10 manual cars in my life and like them fine but a manual tranny just doesn't fit where I live and who I'm married to.
I had no intention of putting anyone down. Drive what you like. I was giving the main reason why I did not want a Infiniti G25. If I were living in a area like NYC or Washington DC then I probably would prefer automatic but I do not so manual transmission for me and my husband.
smarty666 Posts: 1,503Don't get me wrong, I like the TSX and G25 but I do think it was a mistake on Infiniti's part for not offering a manual and the nav system with the G25. That product competes with the TSX and IS right now which do offer those things. I am a little bit disappointed with the mpg of the G25 as well and the msrp of the thing.
All in all, I think the TSX I4 is the better buy (bang for your buck) between just the two.

U.S. News Exclusive Interview: Broadwell Hailed Petraeus as 'Relentless' Mentor During Affair
During her secret affair with Petraeus, Broadwell hailed the CIA director as a "relentless" mentor.
Paula Broadwell spoke in glowing terms about Gen. David Petraeus and his legacy to U.S. News back in February, just weeks after the publication of her biography of the four-star general, "All In: The Education of General David Petraeus."
"Petraeus's legacy is still being established," she said at the time. "I don't think he will leave the national security apparatus for decades if he has anything to do with it."
The revelation of the affair between Broadwell, 40, and the CIA director, 60, led to his resignation last week.
Broadwell also said Petraeus's lasting legacy would likely be on account of his "relentless" mentorship of young people.
[READ: The Full Broadwell Interview]
"He helps a young leader; he doesn't expect them to help him back," she said, noting that the general who served more than 37 years in the U.S. Army "takes time" each night to "clear out his inbox...responding personally to many requests."
Broadwell was well-acquainted with one of Petraeus's inboxes; it was through Gmail messages on a shared account that FBI agents discovered the affair. Broadwell, a married Army scholar with two children, is based in North Carolina but is currently holed up at her brother's home in the Mount Pleasant neighborhood of D.C., according to the Washington City Paper.
[ENJOY: The Best Petraeus Scandal Cartoons]
In the interview, Broadwell also described Petraeus's leadership style, calling it "transformational." She defended criticism of the general's supposedly self-promotional style, saying he was "forthright" about his setbacks and successes.
"Embedding with the HQ in Afghanistan gave me a new perspective for the burdens of war from the commander's point of view," she said. "It is not an easy job to do, and it takes its toll on leaders of every rank and stripe."

WATERVILLE, Maine --- The Colby College men's hockey team stayed with Trinity College for more than two periods before the Bantams pulled away for a 5-2 victory on Friday night at Alfond Rink.
Adam Houli (Howell, N.J.) and Richard Hollstein (Pembroke, Mass.) both had two goals for Trinity, which moves to 14-6 overall and 11-5 in the New England Small College Athletic Conference heading into Saturday's road game at Bowdoin College. Colby, which will host Wesleyan University on Saturday at 3 p.m., falls to 5-13-3 overall and 3-11-2 in league play.
Houli scored just 2:15 into the game on the power play to put Trinity up for good. Hollstein added his first goal at 9:46 of the period for a 2-0 lead at the first intermission.
Hollstein added another quick score at the start of the second period on a shorthanded goal at 2:55 from Joe Tierney (Reading, Mass.) who had two assists in the game.
Colby fought back and made it a 3-2 game after two periods. Jeoff Jarnot (Concord, N.H.) tallied at 12:43 and then Billy Crinnion (Smithtown, N.Y.) scored with 59 seconds left in the period. Crinnion and Wil Hartigan (Arlington, Mass.) had assists on Jarnot's goal, while Jarnot and Michael Doherty (Lynnfield, Mass.) had the assists on the second goal.
The teams battled for more than 11 minutes with a one-goal game in the third period. Houli put the Bantams back up by two goals at 11:24 and Ryan Masucci (Winthrop, Mass.) added the final goal with 1:27 to play.
Wesley Vesprini (Lexington, Mass.) stopped 22 shots in goal for the Bantams, while Cody McKinney (Weston, Fla.) made 27 saves.

And my mother thinks I hate her
because I am barely 17
and I think I have it all worked out
especially boys, and life
and "I only live once
so I will go and fuck him
on the riverbank
and believe it is romantic
because there are stars shining above my head"
when in reality
I don't even know my own favourite colour
and I am scared to admit the music that makes me cry.
I may be 17
with wrists of steel and too much eyeliner
but I do know
that when I fall
or when something breaks
or when I'm crying in the gutter smoking my last cigarette
and I hate myself so much that I want to cry an ocean
the only person I want is her.
I want her skin, like soap and mothballs
and I want her warm breasts to sob into.
I want her stories
and her words
and her smell.
The most important relationship a girl ever will or won't have is with her mum, and
I love you so much.

Federal Aviation Administration saves $15 million by migrating to Red Hat© Enterprise Linux©
RaleighUnited States, April 26, 2006
FAA achieves 30 percent more operational efficiency for 50 percent less cost
Red Hat (NASDAQ: RHAT), the world's leading provider of open source to the enterprise, today announced that the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) saved the federal government more than $15 million in datacenter operating and upgrading costs by migrating to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The FAA executed a major systems migration to Red Hat Enterprise Linux in one-third of the original scheduled time and with 30 percent more operational efficiency than the previous system. In addition, by switching to Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the FAA realized 50 percent savings and spent less than $10 million on a project initially estimated at $25 million.
The FAA accommodates more than two million passengers on domestic airlines every day. With roughly 8,000 airplanes in the air at any given time, the successful execution of the FAA's mission largely depends on the highly complex Traffic Flow Management (TFM) infrastructure and its real-time Enhanced Traffic Management System (ETMS). When the administration embarked on a technical refresh effort for the TFM and ETMS, the FAA faced significant implementation time along with a high price tag.
"There is no room for error or down time in our systems," said Joshua Gustin, TFM-Modernization program manager, FAA. "When we first considered refreshing our entire system, we were looking at $25 million in costs and 18 months to full deployment. By switching to Red Hat Enterprise Linux, we were able to spend less than $10 million and accomplish a major system modernization in one-third that time. Red Hat Enterprise Linux fixed our problems of reliability and scalability, and gives us the support we need to reduce our risk."
The FAA deployed Red Hat Enterprise Linux first in its remote computing locations and later moved Red Hat Enterprise Linuxto its central processing facility located at the Department of Transportation's Volpe Center. By migrating from a costly UNIX platform to Red Hat Enterprise Linux on its workstations, servers and at the hub site, the FAA was able to eliminate costs and ineffective systems, while creating a scalable architecture that met their high-demand environment today and for the future.
The FAA also used Red Hat onsite training during the modernization project to effectively transition engineers to Red Hat Enterprise Linux through the Red Hat Certified Engineer program.
"For training, we decided more was better, particularly with the developers," said Gustin. "As a result, we made training a priority, and it has really paid off."
"The FAA's successful and impressive migration truly exemplifies the value, performance and security of Red Hat Enterprise Linux," said Paul Smith, vice president of government sales operations, Red Hat. "There are scores of agencies across the entire federal government, as well as state and local governments in all 50 states that are moving Unix-like capabilities to Linux on commodity hardware. The fact that Red Hat delivers a platform for better total cost of ownership, throughput, and credentials for strong security makes it the obvious choice when agencies look at either a technical refresh or infrastructure modernization."

The casts of Weatherford College's productions of two one-act plays pose with their director, Nancy McVean, center, in the photos included.
The plays, "A Healing of War" and "New York," focus on personal experiences of two horrific events, the death of a soldier in Iraq and his family's grief and the effect on a group of survivors from the events of Sept. 11, 2001.
"Both are extremely personal and real, and the characters come alive in their raw emotions," said McVean. "But even in the portrayals of grief, guilt, and heartache, there are expressions of hope and understanding of the events. No one will leave the theatre unaffected themselves."
The plays are scheduled Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in the Alkek Fine Arts Center on WC's Weatherford campus, 225 College Park. Admission is free. For more information, contact McVean at 817-598-6307 or email@example.com.

Special to The Leader
The Orange Leader
LITTLE CYPRESS — January is "School Board Appreciation Month" and the Little Cypress-Mauriceville Consolidated Independent School District is recognizing these elected leaders. The Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) calls the board of trustees and the superintendent a "Team of Eight." Together, they face critical challenges in their roles as advocates, and they continue to stand strong and guard against anything that takes away from children and undermines the public schools. Pictured, on front row at left, are David Jones, Rex Peveto, Don Anderson and Randy McIlwain. Back row from left are Marlene Courmier, Danielle Heil, Superintendent Dr. Pauline Hargrove and Tammy Rountree.


text: In 2003, Paul Potratz founded Potratz Partners Advertising together with Michael Staples and Craig Hall. Building on his experience in advertising and the automotive industry, he developed relationships with dealers across the country, from single-point rural dealerships to multi-rooftop, multi-point dealerships. When we entered the picture, many successful traditional agencies existed. While we knew we had to offer traditional, we felt and knew there was much more that could be done in automotive marketing, and our passion was for the digital and online world. Even before the big internet boom, we were already going beyond traditional advertising to include interactive efforts, partnering with Overture* and Classmates.com while internet marketing was still in its early stages. We've evolved from a pioneer in interactive automotive marketing to the industry leader in digital automotive marketing. Our digital expertise extends from being Google Qualified to being part of the Yahoo Ambassador program and the Microsoft Ad Network. Paul speaks at NADA and NCM 20 Groups and is also a trainer for the Driving Sales and NADA Digital Marketing Series. We produce Think Tank Tuesday with weekly digital automotive marketing tips, exclusively available on Driving Sales and iTunes and sent to a subscriber list of over 39,000 automotive professionals across the country. We also write daily for automotive blog sites, such as Driving Sales, Automotive Digital Marketing, Kain Automotive, Auto Dealer People, and Dealer Elite. Also, we have been quoted in the NY Times, NY Post, Wall Street Journal, CBS, and several local and regional newspapers and radio talk shows. We work with dealers who embrace the ever-changing digital landscape and find that a successful partnership is more than a marketing campaign. We're only one part of a successful formula. The other weighing component is, of course, the dealer, whose biggest asset is the staff... their team. At Potratz, we don't just stop at driving traffic to your dealership. We create opportunities to build long-lasting relationships with customers. We do this through on-site webinars and training events for managers & sales teams, offering expertise in new media, mobile, video search, SEO, SEM, retargeting, website design/management and all aspects of traditional media including TV, radio, newspaper, direct mail and email as well. We get involved with each one of our dealers on a personal level. We empower and educate our dealer partners with valuable market and media consumption information that in turn helps develop long lasting results. Whether you're new to the interactive world or a longtime technology user, we will work with you to develop a strategy with a consistent campaign message across traditional and new media platforms. Contact us today to begin making changes at your dealership.

Red Bull owner Dietrich Mateschitz is adamant that losing some key staff to rival teams was not the cause of this week's Jerez woes.
Red Bull had a dismal first pre-season test, managing just 21 laps as they were blighted by engine issues and an overheating RB10.
The team's problems came in the wake of Red Bull losing several key staff.
Chief aerodynamicist Peter Prodromou is now with McLaren while head of vehicle dynamics Mark Ellis and chief simulation engineer Giles Wood both switched to Mercedes.
Mateschitz, though, denies their departures have affected the team.
"The current problems arose from the engine side and not from our team, which still has the high-level know-how it needs," he told Autosport.
The Austrian added that Red Bull expected to have some troubles in Jerez given the huge changes to the regulations that include the introduction of a V6 turbo engine.
"These teething problems came as no big surprise," said the 69-year-old.
"We had expected a difficult first test and now the problems have to be fixed for the Bahrain test."
He added: "However, the truth arrives when we are all on the grid in Melbourne.
"It is up to us and Renault to solve the problems and get ready.
"There is no reason to be worried yet."

When the Bills lost, 37-31, in New England a couple of weeks ago, I came away thinking the defense had actually played OK. The performance seemed at least average, based on their horrid play early in the year and the stunning efficiency of the Patriot offense.
In fact, it was a perfectly average defensive effort against New England. After last night's 49-19 evisceration of the Jets, the Pats are averaging exactly 37.0 points a game. They've scored 108 points in their last two games, 190 in their last four. It's scary. They keep getting better. They're now on pace to break their own NFL record for points in a season. The Pats scored 589 points (36.8 a game) during their unbeaten 2007 regular season.
Is there anything more certain in today's NFL than the Patriots improving over the course of the regular season? They went 8-0 in the second half the last two regular seasons. They've won their first three games of the second half this year, and five in a row overall, opening up a big lead in division that had all four teams tied at 3-3 a month ago.
Tom Brady has 14 TD passes and zero interceptions during the five-game winning streak. Brady, who always talks about the Pats getting better later in the season, has been especially good from the ninth game onward. During the Pats' 19-game win streak in the second halves, Brady has 41 touchdown passes and 2 interception. And you wonder why I consider him the best of all time.

Saturday's Good(rum) Game Notes and Highlights
by, 07-01-2012 at 12:46 AM (1227 Views)
The Twins got some great pitching on Saturday and won both games of a split double-header against the Kansas City Royals. In the first game, the Twins won 7-2 and Scott Diamond worked eight innings for the Win. In the second game, it was Cole DeVries who was promoted and who recorded his second big league win with a terrific performance. Of course, he was immediately optioned back to Rochester following the game.
There was a lot going on in the Twins system on Saturday. I had the opportunity to go to Newman Outdoor Field in Fargo, ND, to watch the Fargo-Moorhead Redhawks take on the St. Paul Saints. Former Twins minor leaguer Tony Davis made his Redhawks debut with a scoreless inning in relief. Other former Twins farmhands, Kyle Carr and Matt Schuld pitch for the Saints. The night was great. The atmosphere for baseball in Fargo is incredible, and I will write more soon.
But this is a report on the Twins minor leagues, so see below to see what Danny Valencia did for the second time in a week. Just how far did Miguel Sano hit one? Did the Rock Cats double their pleasure with a win against Bowie? Three players had four-hit games on Saturday, and one of them completed the cycle. For all this and more, here is a look at the Twins minor league scores and highlights from Saturday:
Things were looking good for the Red Wings through the first four innings. They held a 2-0 lead thanks to two solo home runs off the bat of Danny Valencia. Also, Jeff Manship had thrown four shutout innings. Unfortunately, Brendan Wise came in to start the fifth and the floodgates opened. Wise was charged with six runs on six hits and a walk. He struck out three. Esmerling Vasquez they struck out six in 2.2, one-hit innings. Bobby Lanigan pitched a scoreless inning.
Valencia ended the game 3-4 with the two homers, his fifth and sixth on the season. They were the Red Wings first in seven days. It was Valencias fourth multi-homer game. His most recent was one week earlier against Charlotte. Matt Carson was 2-4 with his sixth home run.
Despite the loss, the Red Wings finished June with a 15-14 record, the first time they had a winning record during a calendar month since August of 2009.
New Britain scored three in the bottom of the ninth but fell one short, losing 9-8. Dan Rohlfing led the offense by going 4-5 with his third double. He drove in three runs. Evan Bigley was 2-5 with his 17th double. Chris Herrmann was 2-5 with his 19th double and first triple. In all, the Rock Cats managed six doubles. Deibinson Romero hit his 10th home run.
Brett Jacobson made a start I am certain he will already be second-guess himself. The right-hander gave up eight runs (7 earned) on four hits and NINE walks (with no strike outs). Edgar Ibarra came out of the bullpen and gave up just one run on three hits and a walk in four innings. Dan Sattler went the final 2.2 innings without alloqing a run.
1B Matt Rizzotti has been released by the Twins.
Tom Stuifbergen picked up his first win of the season, and he needed it. The right-hander gave up two runs on six hits in five innings. He worked quickly, walked none and struck out two. Jose Gonzalez struck out two over the next two innings. Finally, Marty Popham came on and struck out two in two perfect innings.
Jairo Perez went 2-4 with two RBI and his fourth stolen base. Danny Rams went 2-4 with his first triple. Lance Ray entered the game early and went 2-3 with a walk and his 14th double. Angel Morales went 1-3 with a walk and his fourth home run.
This was not a great night for the Snappers. They managed just three hits in the game although two of them traveled well. Jairo Rodriguz hit a solo home run, his second of the season. Miguel Sano then connected for his 17th home run. An on-site report from K-Bro Baseball tells us that Sanos home run was a moonshot and towered over the scoreboard in left center field.
Jason Wheeler struggled again on this night. The lefty gave up seven runs on eight hits and a walk in three innings. Cole Johnson came in and struck out five in three scoreless innings. Bart Carter pitched two frames and gave up three runs on six hits and a walk. He struck out three. Clinton Dempster pitched the final inning without allowing a run.
The loss meant that the Snappers were swept by Clinton in this three-game series. A record-high number of fans (2,564) crawled in to Pohlmann Stadium to watch the Snappers.
It may be just a statistical anomaly, but hitting for the cycle is still a very cool, very rare occurrence in baseball. On this night, Niko Goodrum did just that. In five at bats, he had a single, hit his second double, his sixth triple and his second home run. He also drove in four runs. Travis Harrison continues to rake. He was 3-3 with a walk. Stephen Wickens went 2-4 with his second triple.
Ricardo Arevalo started and gave up three runs (2 earned) on five hits and three walks in just 2.2 innings. Brett Lee came in and gave up a run on three hits in 2.1 innings. Tyler Herr struckout two in two scoreless innings. Mason Melotakis pitched a scoreless eighth frame. Dallas Gallant struck out two in a scoreless ninth to lock down his first save of the season.
Lefty Austin Malinowski, the lefty from Minnesota, came in after a couple of rehabbing righties and recorded his first professional win. David Bromberg started and threw the first two frames. He gave up two runs on two hits and a walk. He struck out two. Next, Adrian Salcedo struck out two in a perfect inning. Malinowski came in and gave up an unearned run on three hits and a walk in three innings. Hung-yi Chen and Gerardo Ramirez each threw a scoreless inning. Gonzalo Sanudo struck out five in two scoreless innings.
Aderlin Mejia led the offense by going 4-5 with his fifth double. Dereck Rodriguez was 3-5 with two RBI.

When it came to the videos i cheated. I just used fraps to record. The videos Falcon makes is too low resolution. And buggy. Just like Inventor. As you can see once falcon gets over the hill its not a problem. Hence the recording in full HD and music. All recorded live.
i was able to use all 8gb of ram on the previous version.
Does the grapic card matter a lot? i have a Geforce 680 with 2gb ram and watercooling if the need to push things comes.
I wanted to go finer mesh but the new baby interface will not allow finer than the 200% whatever that is. i now sit on 16gb more ram and i am not sure i need it.
But i haven`t really been trying the new one since i don`t like the new interface, the simplifications and since it crashes a lot.
I will try more now that i can direct the flow indicators.
It should be a save preferences button. So it becomes easier to trow in a new version/evolution on the piece you are testing. And a flip model function. Its a pain to make the model in inventor and discover that the model is on its side. Go back, flip it and export as STL? file and try again. opsy it was the wrong way. and.. one more time...
Picture from inventor stress simulation is attached. I think most would enjoy just forces from top or sides. XY and so on seems to be both. Its not lean. Who seems to be the thing in falcons development.
I have opened up a separate thread so we can specifically discuss system requirements.
Greetings to the people of autodesk
I give thanks for having made available to the public the Falcon software with which I carried out some tests.
The graphical interface is very intuitive and easy to handle, the object import section is fast and effective, at least in the type of file that I used 3ds and impressive visual results for such a small program.
I've been using it for short periods of time due to the limited capabilities of my team dualcore, 4GB of RAM and 512MB of graphics. The main problem is the intensive use of CPU (100% whether or not doing calculations) and excessive overheating. The 80% of the sessions my computer is turned off automatically.
The software is stable and has posted only trying to save images. I have not tried to save video given the limitations.
Sorry for the google translation.
two issues:
1) I have reproduced a crash every time I change the voxel size, program crashes immediately.
2) the drag calculation is overstimated by a factor of 2 (Cd=.48 instead of .25) in the same model under identical set up to another cfd.
I do not know if the voxel size can be changed any other way to get accuracy improvements. However, I do not believe that the default voxel will change the drag by the mentioned factor as noted.
Please let me know.
I use a Mac Pro with 28 gig ram.
Just today I have found out that some program wongly detect screen resolution of my computer which is 1280x1024 as 867x764 or similar. Maybe this is a problem? Did You try to run .stl file I sent you? Long time no answers are posted nor emailed to me. Could You please find some solution so I could use FALCON 2013? As I wrote, even reverting on EXPLORER 8 did not helped, nor total deinstallation of previous version of FALCON, nor installing it again. I really do not know what to try next.........
for pt 1, can you describe the exact steps that cause the crash when changing voxel size, ideally using one of the sample models so we can recreate it?
for pt 2, an important part of Project Falcon is validation against theory and physical test results. a brief validation doc is available here for your reference: http://labs.blogs.com/labs/ProjectFalcon2013Valida
from your prior posts it's clear that you are having issues, but not clear exactly what system you are running and what the circumstances of the problems are. it sounds like an isolated issue and it's probably best to use another machine. however, if you need to run Falcon on this one machine that has been problematic, please email firstname.lastname@example.com a succinct description of the OS, locale, graphics card, graphics driver, screen resolution, memory and exact steps for reproducing the issues you are having. we cannot guarantee that we can solve the problem on your system but can look into it.
Obviously I've had a cooling problem is already solved and I could do more intensive testing of the software.
At the moment I need to know what computation time needed Falcon to obtain reliable results.
I left work a Falcon for periods of 10-15 minutes and the results are graphical computation time of 90 sec.
Using 3ds files around 2MB
My system is win7 32bit Cuore2duo, 4Gb ram using the half, 512MB graphics.
I tried to record video. Mov and have not succeeded. Save images as. Jpg hangs Falcon. I get images with screenshots.
1) I use the voxel size 'dial' to increase to 200% ...as soon as I do that ...crash app.
2) If I use the dial to decrease to 40% or less, then it run and became 'unstable' and calculations fail after awhile...i.e. giving negative drag values and finally crash. This one I understand it more, it has problems converging a very fine voxel size and since NO other controls exist to hand like time step.
Conclusion: as normally happens with grid sizes, voxel sizes matters on getting the solutions a) to run and b) converge.
The larger problem is that there is not much control if you want to increase the results accuracy.
3) I mentioned the results because I expected to have a much closer values. Maybe you should test on more elaborated shapes, not only on basic shapes where the errors may not be apparent. Fluids do not behave the same at different regimes but also at different shapes, just to 'generalize'...
My suggestion is: test Falcon with more elaborated shapes, ex. wings.
I just did that, a full aircraft and got the 'issues'. Note: NOT very rare Reynolds, around 2-10 million.
It sounds like you are near the limit of what your system can handle, given what you mentioned about the overheating.
Falcon is a transient solver. It will capture unsteady flow phenomena more completely than a steady state solution which is more time-averaged. Given that is is fully transient, there is no final result. However, results should stabilize after enough time has elapsed. You can review the "time" output in the UI and see how much sim time has elapsed. Usually a few seconds are necessary. Additionally, you can review the drag plot and the average drag value to see when it levels off. We are looking at ways to automatically provide notice.
Thanks for the description. We'll take a look.

Zagat recently selected Union Square Donuts' Boston Cream Pie doughnut to represent Massachusetts in its "50 States, 50 Donuts" post.
Here's what Zagat had to say:
Massachusetts: Boston Cream Pie at Union Square Donuts
The Backstory: The Bay State's most iconic dessert is the Boston Cream Pie, created in 1856 by Armenian-French chef M. Sanzian at the Parker House Hotel, today the Omni Parker House and America's oldest continuously operating hotel. In 1996 it was deemed the official state dessert. Naturally, plenty of places have taken that pie and twisted it into donut form.
Where to Find: We're partial to the Boston Cream Pie donut served at Union Square Donuts in Somerville. Why? Because while donuts have a reputation for being junk food, the team here uses local New England products (like Cabot butter) and farm-fresh produce (freshly squeezed juices for flavor) to create gourmet, handmade donuts that have kept the still-new spot packed since it opened last year. They do more than justice to the Boston Cream Pie legacy, turning out a luscious take with homemade vanilla bean pastry cream and bittersweet chocolate fondant in a brioche donut.
Union Square Donuts, at 16 Bow St., is open Thursday-Friday 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
