|Some good names. Personally i like Vatican Shadow and Holy Other very much. But I must say it's music suited for headphones. I guess both of these play at Gloria.

Baauer is by far one of the best bookings Roskilde could have made, there's a liveset with him here, where you can check him out... He's seriously a SICK SICK kid and one of the pioneers of the whole trap-genre

Looking forward to Disclosure but thats about it.
Baauer sounds like crap! Lots of uplifting sequences in his tracks but its followed up by this traditional hip/hop (trapstep, dubstep, whatever subsubsub-genre is "in" beat that just doesnt work at all after uplifting. Terrible imo.

I'm super fucking hyped about getting Disclosure to RF, have wished for them two years in a row now. Since the first time I heard their breakthrough EP Tenderly/Flow I've been completely and utterly in love with their super cool, yet sexy take on house and UK garage. It's really unique, and to quote a review i read somewhere (Beatport i think), two years from now there will be a genre called Disclosure and tons of kids trying to sound like them but without ever reaching that same level.
Vatican City and Holy Other are super cool musicians, but as mentioned it's more the headphone kind of music (Think Danglish and Oneohtrix Point Never from last year) that will be put on Gloria stage.
I'd love to see Jam City live, only thing is I'll need to big stoned as fuck and it has to be sunday afternoon or something like that. I sincerely hope it will happen nonetheless!
Baauer is, well... not really my cup of tea. This whole trap thing just seems to me like a bunch of screwed up kids on weed trying to create a "new" genre out of weird sound bites and heavily climax-based arrangements. It's so gimmicky you wonder whether the whole thing is really a joke. Seriously. It's like the new "dubstep" (which wasn't really dubstep). Believe me, you will soon see youtube overflooding of tracks like "Pink Floyd - Money (TRAP REFIX)" and "Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal (₮Я∆P Я3Ḿ1X)". Yeah, they also have this thing about writing everything in unicode letters. I told you it was silly.
It's a party alright, but I believe my ears are simply not able to listen to the same (extremely abused) 808 snare for a whole concert.

Apollo, maybe. Cosmopol, no – that tent is huge. And I think it will die out well before that.

|The difference is only 1000 people (5000 and 6000 capacity) but you are probably right about the hype thing, and most people probably don't know who made Harlem Shake.

|convinced that Disclosure and Baauer is way too big to play at Apollo/Cosmopol. think they're being very underestimated... one song at youtube with over a million views, and they should be playing at Arena imo.

Nothing against the two musical acts, but I think you're actually overestimating them. One somewhat popular song is obviously not enough to fill Arena. There several factors to include; when are they playing? what other acts are playing at the same time? Also, a six months popular song is like old news nowadays. I would rather have a fully crowded Cosmopol/Apollo than a half-full Arena.

He Said-She Said: Praying for Specific Qualities in a Spouse
- Thursday, November 26, 2009
As I have grown deeper in my faith, I can see myself letting go of these old notions and embracing whatever God has in store for me. Bottom line, it is a matter of trust. Do I trust in myself when it comes to determining the right spouse for me OR do I trust in the Creator of the Universe? The Master Designer who knew me before I was born. A Heavenly Father who knows the exact number of hairs on my head. The One who knows better who is right for me should he desire that I marry.
So I join with you in presenting my spousal requests to God. And I hope that we will both approach our Father accompanied by heart attitudes with thanksgiving, as Paul says in Philippians. I don't think it matters as much what we request, but how we are bringing our desires before the Throne of Grace ("I need, I want, I have to have" versus "I desire this, Father, but your will be done, as I know your ways are higher than mine and only you know what is best for my life").
God is bigger than our requests when it comes to a spouse or the emptiness we may feel in a present season of singleness. And he will form and shape our hearts to accept and receive whatever—or whomever!—he is bringing our way.
We aren't promised understanding, but when we give our requests to him, we are promised his peace that will embrace us, guard us and free us from the shackles of ourselves (our selfishness, our anxiety, our worries) to seek God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:25-33).
HE is … Cliff Young, a Crosswalk.com contributing writer and a veteran single of many decades. He has traveled the world in search of fresh experiences, serving opportunities, and the perfect woman (for him) and has found that his investments in God, career and youth ministry have paid off in priceless dividends.
SHE is … Laura MacCorkle, Senior Editor at Crosswalk.com. She loves God, her family and her friends. Singleness has taught her patience, deepened her walk with the Lord and afforded her countless (who's counting anyway?) opportunities to whip up an amazing three-course meal for one.

Also, it's important to note that we write our answers separately (we think they sound eerily similar sometimes, too!).
GOT A QUESTION? If you've got a question about anything related to living the single life, PLEASE SUBMIT HERE (selected questions will be posted anonymously). While we are unable to answer every inquiry, we do hope that He Said-She Said will be an encouragement to you.

Gabriel García Márquez.
Colonel Gerineldo Márquez had a telegraphic call from Colonel Aureliano Buendía that afternoon. It was a routine conversation which was not going to bring about any break in the stagnant war. At the end, Colonel Gerineldo Márquez looked at the desolate streets, the crystal water on the almond trees, and he found himself lost in solitude.
"Aureliano," he said sadly on the key, "it's raining in Macondo."
There was a long silence on the line. Suddenly the apparatus jumped with the pitiless letters from Colonel Aureliano Buendía.
"Don't be a jackass, Gerineldo," the signals said. "It's natural for it to be raining in August.
"I love you Rafael."
"Get away from me Phil."

HERE IT IS! My OFFICIAL NYC Marathon Training Schedule*!
Thank you to everyone who sent feedback on my original schedule. After hearing about over-training and the "less-is-more" approach, I've decided to take make my schedule based off a routine my friend (thanks Becky!) used for her first marathon- The Less Is More Plan from Runner's World.
It includes 3 days of running each week where other programs typically have 4-5. This works well with my schedule, giving me plenty of time for cross-training/spin class, plus it's 16 weeks, the exact amount of time I have after my triathlon. My friend said this plan prepared for the race without over-training her, it was hard (as is any marathon-prep), but it got her to the finish line.
I've made the plan work for my own schedule, adding in my spin classes, plus at least 1 day of strength training (or cardio conditioning) with the option to add a second day or rest, depending on how I feel that week. I've also added the "bonus" column with the hope that each week I'll be able to fit in a yoga class.
If you're in the NYC area and training for a marathon and want to join for some long runs, let me know!
*the half marathon is still TBD but will be around weeks 7-10 & will slightly alter the long run schedule

TUGUEGERAO CITY, Jan 3 (PIA) - - A private web design company has partnered with five Local Government Units (LGUs) and the Department of Tourism (DOT) in launching "One Cagayan Valley Region" website today aimed to promote tourism and boost economic investment in the region.
Jayson Tejada, creative director of the Flashbang Project Web Design Studio, said the web features tourist destinations in the different parts of the region, specifically the cities of Ilagan in Isabela and Tuguegarao in Cagayan and the municipalities of Sta. Ana, Penablanca, and the island of Calayan, all from the province of Cagayan.
Aside from the tourist site, the LGUs can also promote their events on festivities and culture, as well as their available service facilities, means of transportation and calendar of activities that will guide and give choices to tourists on their activities in a certain area.
"We also provided a page for the LGUs to promote their programs and activities as we want their constituents and the public to acknowledge visibility of their initiatives, programs and projects. The web can be viewed by the public up to international communities. Just log on to onecagayanvalley.com," Tejada said.
On his part, Kabayashi Basho, president of the Flashbang and a Japanese national, said they chose Cagayan Valley to promote as they saw the potentials of the region not only its natural tourist spots but also its rich culture and biodiversity.
Flashbang through Basho signed Memorandum of Agreement with the Local Chief Executives of the five selected municipalities to maintain the web.
On the other hand, tourism Director Blessida G. Diwa expressed her gratitude to the private company for helping the region promote the tourism industry which will surely encourage tourists to visit and experience the best in Cagayan Valley.
Tejada also stated that they initially chosen the five LGUs to launch the web but they continue to map other LGUs to reach their target of 50 LGUs to be included in the One Cagayan Valley Region website by March 2014. (OTB-PIA-2/ Cagayan)

IMMOKALEE, Fla. – The Martin Foundation has awarded $40,000 to Immokalee Community School, enough to expand the school's summer and after-school programs to accommodate an extra 28 students.
The school, operated by Redlands Christian Migrant Association, targets the children of low-income farmworkers. It helps them overcome disadvantages of poverty, language and migration as their families follow crop cycles. Extra attention outside normal school hours has proven effective in helping these children progress.
"It is clear RCMA is serving one of the most at-risk populations of students in Collier County," said Geraldine Martin, president of the 57-year-old Naples, Fla.-based foundation.
"We are so honored to have received support from the Martin Foundation," said Maria Jimenez, RCMA's Director of Charter Schools. "This contribution means we will be able to maintain a high level of quality in our after-school program and offer much-needed summer support too."
Over recent years, only a third of Immokalee's children – but 80 percent of those at Immokalee Community School – have enjoyed access to after-school services. The Martin Foundation grant could push the ICS number beyond 90 percent.
ICS is one of two charter schools operated by Immokalee-based RCMA; the other school is Wimauma Academy, serving the farming areas south of Tampa.
RCMA is a 45-year-old non-profit corporation that also operates 79 rural child-care centers in 21 Florida counties, serving nearly 8,000 preschool children each year.

01 product description
Product description
A new creation has been added to our product range of lightweight and elegant shelf systems. Wogg 25 and 52 have been complemented by a writing desk.
This writing desk is strikingly convincing by virtue of its simplicity and, at the same time, surprising thanks to its technical sophistication. As in the case of 25 and 52, also here, the various storage spaces constitute an important element and determine the design. The classical form of the table's support frame enhances the impression of lightness.
The novelty is complemented by elegant box containers, which can be inserted precisely into the recesses and serve to accommodate writing utensils and small items of everyday use. A leather desk pad perfectly completes the picture.

Sasha Aliabiev from Moldova is a great cartoonist deserving of a wider audience. His work is not very conventional, so to speak, but his uniqueness is exactly what we appreciate about his art. In his portfolio you'll find everything: from cute food loving gnomes to weird alien cupcakes. Enjoy!

Get ready to "Scream" at your television soon -- MTV is finally casting the drama pilot based on the popular movie franchise.
As TV Line reports, the network is looking for actors to play the four main characters. The pilot begins with a YouTube video going viral, which is bad news for a teen girl named Audrey and serves as a "catalyst for a murder that opens up a window to [her] town's troubled past."
The four main characters are: beautiful, popular 16-year-old girl Harper; her former best friend, Audrey, a bi-curious "artsy loner"; her friend Noah, a brilliant computer geek who could be the next Steve Jobs; and Harper's mom, Maggie, the town's medical examiner who's hiding a "dark secret from her past."
It's unclear if the TV series will tie in to the four "Scream" movies in any way, and neither Wes Craven nor Kevin Williamson (who created the horror franchise) seem to be involved.
But if the "Scream" show resembles the movies at all, the characters should beware random phone calls! Or would it be texts now?
Gallery | 10 Horror Movies That Will Actually Scare the Crap Out of You
- 'The Shining' (1980)
I'm trying to stay away from the obvious, but sometimes you just have to give it up, especially since we seem to be having a collective "Shining" moment, what with the wonderful documentary "Room 237" (about the myriad conspiracy theories surrounding the film) making its home video debut and author Stephen King finally releasing "Doctor Sleep," the long-awaited follow-up novel (this time Danny is a grown ass man but falling into the same traps that his father did). It should be no surprise that Stanley Kubrick, when setting out to make a horror movie, wouldn't just make some drive-in cheapie but an epic work of genre fiction that would last the test of time. Not that everyone is a fan; King himself publicly decried the liberties Kubrick took with his novel and many have claimed that it's boring, slow and ponderous. It might be all of those things, but it's also absolutely terrifying, with Kubrick conjuring images that, try as I might, I just can't scrub from my brain. Anchored by an iconic performance by Jack Nicholson, "The Shining" is one of those movies that deserves to be known as an all-time scary movie.
- 'Suspiria' (1977)
If you thought Darren Aronofsky's Oscar-winning "Black Swan" was a trip, then you should probably watch this blood-chilling Italian spook-fest that heavily inspired Aronofsky's film. "Suspiria" concerns an American girl (cult icon Jessica Harper) who goes away to an Italian ballet school run by women who might be witches. Everything about "Suspiria" is overwhelming, from the sound design and score (by Goblin) to director Dario Argento's crayon-colored visuals (the blood is redder than it was in old Hammer movies), which rank amongst the most striking ever committed to a horror film. Argento firmly puts you in the shoes of Harper, whose discovery is shocking and profound. If you're looking for a movie with a traditional narrative, then you are probably best served elsewhere. "Suspiria" employs an eerie kind of dream logic, and it makes everything even more haunting. (Like most great horror movies, a pair of lackluster sequels followed: "Inferno" and the way after-the-fact "Mother of Tears.") It's still bewitching after all these years.
- 'Don't Look Now' (1973)
Maybe my favorite horror film of all time, Nicolas Roeg's cultish thriller focuses on a young couple (Donald Sutherland and an almost painfully beautiful Julie Christie) who, in the opening sequence, lose their young daughter in an accidental drowning. Understandably distraught, the pair move to Venice, where Sutherland is restoring some ancient church. Then things get really weird: Christie befriends a pair of psychics, a serial killer has the city in a stranglehold of panic and fear, and both parents are plagued with visions of their dead daughter. Daphne du Maurier, who wrote the stories that "The Birds" and "Rebecca" were based on, also wrote the source material for "Don't Look Now." But "Don't Look Now" is drastically different than those somewhat dusty Hitchcock movies; not only does it feature the greatest sex scene ever (seriously), but it also has an ending so shocking that it's hard to shake, years after seeing it. It's also drop-dead gorgeous in the most '70s way possible (love those argyle socks, Donald!)
- 'Prince of Darkness' (1987)
John Carpenter is a director known for instilling fear into audiences around the world. As the creator of "Halloween," "The Thing," and "Christine," he has spooked countless human beings. But one of his scariest works is also one of his most under-seen. "Prince of Darkness," which was recently released in a highly recommended deluxe Blu-ray package from Shout Factory, is about a team of religious scholars and grad students who are conducting a study on a mysterious vile of goo that just might be the physical manifestation of Satan. Admirably philosophical and deeply visceral, "Prince of Darkness" has a vibe unlike any other Carpenter movie; call it an oppressive blanket of bleakness. Carpenter is always scary but that scariness is often peppered with jokey winks or out-and-out jokes. Instead, "Prince of Darkness" is positively apocalyptic. After watching this movie recently I had nightmares. I honestly cannot remember the last time that happened. Just thinking about it is kind of creeping me out. It's that scary.
- 'Kill List' (2011)
A more recent movie (but every bit as scary as any other film listed), this Gallic horror movie, directed by the outstanding Ben Wheatley (who had not one but two excellent genre films come out this year, "Sightseers" and "A Field in England"), is a movie best experienced without knowing anything about it. I saw it at SXSW a couple of years ago, at a special morning press screening set up after audience reaction proved so strong. Even at 10 a.m., it scared the hell out of me. What's so fascinating about "Kill List" is about how fearless it is, toggling between genres like someone flipping through television channels. It's a domestic drama one moment and a hit man thriller the next and a grand, "Wicker Man"-style horror movie the next. It's unpredictability adds to the movie's atmosphere of dreadful foreboding. You can tell that something horrible is just around the corner, you just don't know what. To say anymore would be criminal, but just know that this has rightfully been inducted into the pantheon of all time great horror movies.
- 'Day of the Dead' (1985)
While "Night of the Living" dead is an undisputed classic and "Dawn of the Dead" is a rollicking zombie theme park ride, it might be the third in George Romero's amazing zombie series, that is the most creepily effective. Sure, "Night of the Living Dead" showed audiences something they had never seen before and remains a truly scary little movie, and "Dawn of the Dead" is the rare extravaganza that is as smart as it is entertaining (take that, Ronald Reagan!), but there's something bombed-out and sad about "Day of the Dead" that makes it even more powerful. It's basically the "Before Midnight" of zombie movies, taking place in a world overrun by flesh-eaters, with humans living largely below ground and doing odd tests on their walking dead captors (love you, Bub). Originally intended to be a zombie epic, the financiers balked when Romero wanted to release it unrated, so he had to scale down and make an even more intimate, claustrophobic version of his story. The results, which have also recently been offered up in a deluxe Blu-ray from Shout Factory, are nothing short of jaw-dropping. And bone-chilling. In "Day of the Dead," the humans are just as scary as the zombies (an ideally liberally lifted for Danny Boyle's similar "28 Days Later"). More brainssssss.
- 'High Tension' (2003)
French filmmaker Alexandre Aja is one of the most exciting directors working in the horror genre. In movies like "The Hills Have Eyes" and "Piranha 3D," he is able to both send up and celebrate horror movies using a combination of wicked camerawork, gross-out effects, off-handed humor (always with a political edge) and tautly constructed suspense set pieces. But one of his earliest films is one of his best: in "High Tension," a girl visits her friend's family farmhome for a weekend away form the hustle and bustle of college. The first night she's at the farmhouse, an anonymous madman kills the entire family (lovingly photographed in graphic detail), leaving her to run for her life. It's like a Dean Koontz novel crossed with an early Luc Besson movie, and had the movie not totally fallen off a cliff in the last act (thanks to an idea Besson had), it would be a classic. As it stands, with that stupid ending, it is a near-classic, and certainly worth watching. It'll give you some jolts, for sure.
- 'House of the Devil' (2009)
Ti West is a young American filmmaker who is just this side of the indie mumblecore movement. And he might be the next great face of horror filmmaking. West is always challenging conventions, whether it's for his smart-ass monster movie "The Roost" or his follow-up to this film, "The Innkeepers," which smartly deconstructed the haunted hotel subgenre. With "House of the Devil," it's the closest he's come to an out-and-out classic, a riff on the babysitter-trapped-in-the-house-alone subgenre that was popular in the late seventies and early eighties. In this film, a weirdly angular young college student, desperate for cash, answers an ad for babysitting. She's called out to a spooky mansion in the woods and asked to just sit tight; she doesn't even see the supposed kid she's babysitting. As you can imagine, things get very creepy, very quickly. The ending of the movie (which briefly costars "Frances Ha" breakout Greta Gerwig) has become a major source of contention -- either you see it as a huge pay off to all that waiting or a letdown for a movie that spent so much on atmosphere and mood. This is a recent movie that demands to be seen, appreciated and canonized.
- 'Dead & Buried' (1981)
Some horror movies are just lovably bizarre. Such is the case with this early-eighties gem, written by the team behind "Alien" Ron Schusett and Dan O'Bannon and featuring a freak-out twist ending that would make M. Night Shyamalan weep tears of jealousy. In the small town of Potter's Bluff, some mysterious murders are going down. The sheriff (James Farentino) sets out to solve the mystery, which leads to some deep and dark places, indeed. Featuring early make-up effects by a young Stan Winston (watch for that needle-in-the-eye gag) and a terrifically creepy score by Joe Renzetti, "Dead & Buried" is one of those little horror movies that manages to jangle your blood in altogether unforeseen and disturbing ways. It's hard to talk about this movie without giving it away, but Blue Underground released a terrific Blu-ray a few years ago, so pick it up, and get lost in the foggy cliffs of Potter's Bluff. This is the kind of movie that you watch and then immediately show ten of your very best friends because you want someone to love it to (it'd also be nice to have someone to talk to about it).
- 'Audition' (1999)
Of all the J-horror movies released in the early aughties, none gave us the willies quite like "Audition," from Japanese master Takashi Miike. Part of what makes "Audition" so effective is the way it creeps up on you. For much of the movie it plays like a sappy, somewhat sentimentalized drama, about a sad man who holds a fake television audition for a suitable new wife. The young woman seems to have it all -- she's lovely and engaging and personable. Except, of course, that the movie takes a dark turn and the woman you've come to adore turns out to be the stuff of nightmares. That's about all we can say before a bolt of lightning comes out of the sky and silences us. But it's worth it. The image of the burlap sack which appears to be still until... Well, just watch it for yourself. It's like "Jaws" for the age of internet dating.

Why does this Sonia have 6 stars while Jade have 7?
zΔc 8 months ago ( 6.3.1 )
It's consistent with the special God roster: Red Sonia/Grodin/Light Meta have one less awakening and are easier to get than their counterparts, Green&Blue Sonia/Blodin&Rodin/Dark Meta, hence the lower amount of stars.

Rubicari in reply to Green Bob7 6 months ago ( 6.4.3 )
You are lucky, I've burned stones just trying to get one, and so far nada. Building devil teams around ronia is a piece of cake. I'm assuming yr low rank, grab and evo some demons, ogres, 2 king baddies, & a vampire. All are easy to evo & skill up. Once u rank up enough to handle Descended dungeons, stronger devil types will be dropping at your feet.
jq1790 in reply to Green Bob7 6 months ago ( 6.4.3 )
You have HER to back her up in a team, for starters. If you can find a King Metal Dragon, get a King Baddie for a burst option. You can always hunt down Demons, btw, for really basic Devil subs, so you're never truly out of options even if you're lower progress like I am. (I currently run Extant with the R/G/Y/B Demons)
moekou@PF 8 months ago ( 6.3.1 )
Because Jade is much rarer.
Rarity has nothing to do with how many awakenings one has, it's simply how that one is made, they don't want to make them too op. Look at the fruit dragon as said above, rem knows they ain't rare, it's just the way gung-ho decided to try n even out stats.

Sonia user please help.
If I use Sonia active +king baddie+Hera ur active, is this calculation correct?
(Assuming I have a perfect board and cleared all orbs)
6.25 x 3 x 2.8=52.50x attack
FizzCake 6 months ago ( 6.4.3 )
Almost. You're missing the row enhances. Each row you perform will add 10% additional damage to the monster with the corresponding colour. Let's say if you manage to pull off the most ideal 5 rows, you will have 30% to the colour of X, and 20% to *, each multiplied by however many row enhancement awakenings all your monsters combined possess.
Let's say you're using two RSonias, and the grids I have below X are Fire Orbs and * are Dark orbs. A RSonia a row enhancement for both colours, and two of them would give you 2 row enhancements for both colours. If you manage to pull off 5 rows, a RSonia will benefit from 60% bonus damage from Fire (30 X 2) and 40% from Dark (20 X 2) making that a total of 100% additional damage, whereas a King Baddie will only benefit for 40% total additional damage since it is only a Dark type. Hence, RSonia and Hera-Ur will both have 52.50 X 200% = 105 times their normal damage since they're Fire/Dark; 180% for 4 rows, and 160% for 3 rows.
~80% of the time you will and need to be able to pull off 4 rows. You will get 13-17 orbs of each colour, adding up to 30. This setup is most ideal if one of your monsters corresponding to the colour of the incomplete row has Two-Pronged Attack, which means a match of exactly 4 orbs will increase that single monster's damage by an additional 50% after all the other calculations:
~10% of the time you get just the right amount of orbs (12 for one colour and 18 the other), allowing you to perform the most ideal 5 rows:
~10% of the time you'll get under 12 orbs of one colour, which means you will only be able to perform 3 rows. Again, try to have 4 adjoining orbs for the incomplete row to proc Two-Pronged Attack if you have it:
Hope this helps. :)

688 Kaddie x2 lv41 & 19
1061 Dragon Zombie lv 40
Situational use: 796 for Light and Heal orb breaker or 205 Lilith for the Poison.
Now I have:
187 Zeus that I plan to Evo to 918 Zeus Stratios
189 Hera that I plan to Evo to 190 Awoken Hera
Now the question is do I keep Ronia as lead and who else should I be trying to get for my core members? (Hades / Thanatos??)
I do have 629 Seraph of Dawn Lucifer lvl 63 and go with him as lead for the HP and 300k boom?? What would be the 5th slot recommendation? or am I completely off track in my team building? Any input is great!

Instead of 190 Awoken Hera I'd recommend aiming for 599 Awoken Hera-Ur. Ronia and Ur high five each other as you use they're actives.

Hiro on 10/29/2014 ( 7.1.2 )
That definitely isn't the best, but there's nothing you can do about that cause those are the monsters you have. You should try to get subs all in dark or fire because ronia's skill changes the board to those two colors. My Ronia team is: Ronia (Lead), Ronia, Shiva, Hera-Ur, King Baddie, Ronia (Friend). This team has 6 fire row enhances so whenever I make a row of fire orbs, it instantly becomes op. I think you just need to keep rolling the rare egg machine and hopefully my template will help a bit.

Rubicari in reply to Nightmares 5 months ago ( 6.4.5 )
It can go either way, Hera-ur has a slightly better Att on the leader front, if I had a Ronia I would swap the 2 depending on the dungeon and the needs. What makes it truly devastating, is having 2 Ronias there (1 friend, 1 personal).
Last edited by Rubicari 5 months ago ( 6.4.5 )
it seems that one of each would be ideal. Rarely do you need x6.25 rcv. So take the x7.5 atk and x2.5 rcv
combine Ronia and hera-ur's skill and watch as the board becomes hellfire!

Tylericus 3 months ago ( 6.5.2 )
It depends on the dungeon but I usually use
Awoken Rodin
Ult Belial
Ult Devil Haku
king Baddie
Friend Ronia
Other good subs depending on the dungeon are a second Ronia if you have it, Hera-ur, Lu Bu, Demolishing creator Shiva, Ult vampires, Flame twin star ifrit, ult Lilith, zombie dragon, Persephone, Loki, ult hades, ult Hera, Minerva, cyclone dragon, jester dragon, and maby ult Venus if you need combo help after using Sonia's skill
The team possibilities are endless really as long as you have all the skills and awakens you need to make them effective

REM Gods never gave me a Ronia, but they did give me Fallen Angel Lucifer. Oddly enough, a few minutes after I got my Lucifer, his Ultimate Evolutions were announced in Japan. I was so happy to find out that D/F Lucifer's leader skill is close to Ronia's leader skill.
Until the REM Gods bless me with Ronia, D/F Lucifer will have to do. Any thoughts on using D/F Lucifer as an alternative to Ronia? Will the 0.5 difference in RCV be detrimental to my pseudo-Sonia team?

It looks ok but i have a few opinions you might be interested in
I would replace Neptune with awoken Rodin if you have it. The skill is much more explosive plus the poison is better and even though he is not a devil type, the color coordination is better and the awoken skills rock on a Sonia team. Also 2 Gravs is a bit much for such an explosive leader. most of the time lu bu plus Sonia active plus bonus damage from row enhances is more than enough to take out most bosses. (unless you are battling keeper of gold in wich case always bring 2 Gravs) I would replace Hera with devil Haku or Belial or Hera ur depending on the dungeon and what you have.

I need your comments, guys!
I now have a Ronia, and a D/D Lucifer. Should I evolve Lucifer into his D/F Ultimate, or his D/D Ultimate (when they come to NA, of course)?
D/F Lucifer has higher HP, a Fire sub-element, but lower attack. Less burst, less damage.
D/D Lucifer has higher ATK, lower HP, and has Dark sub-element. Definitely more burst.
From what I'm seeing, D/D Lucifer seems to be more fitting for a Ronia team, since he has higher burst. But, the other Lucifer has a Fire sub-element, which would be useful.
Which of Lucifer's Ultimate Evolutions should I choose if I want to put him in Ronia's team? I need your comments!

I would go D/R myself. I'd rather have his health and red sub element than the atk. That being said if you had a devil team that was dark based I could see running D/D. They both seem fine.
I will say my R+D devil teams were all around a bit better than mono R or D teams so D/R Luci fits that a little better.
DouchHater 12 days ago ( 7.1.2 )
Dark fire does more damage if you are using both fire and dark rows on your team. If you are using all dark ronia team DD does more damage but that's only because of the additional rows. Same element sub attributes do 10% damage vs the 33% of off-element sub attributes. DD is only optimal on all dark teams like dmeta, Pandora, the right LuBu team, zeus stratios. Etc

Ever heard of "farming the normal dungeons" for EXP? Oh, how about "playing for a long time"? Of course, how could I forget "stoning for stamina instead of rolling the REM"? Assuming our admin is an IAP player (and even if he isn't,) all three of these easily explain why he is such a high rank.
Definitely heard and use. I've seen a lot of videos where I clearly can vision human playing and some where it just does not look so. I've done a lot of FPGA designs and know what modern electronics is capable of doing nowadays.

I go to Syracuse, NY for 1 day, and within 3min of stepping out of the car, I see this in the parking lot.
I'm not going it lie, I did start yelling for Captain Jack.
It only took them 25 years, but Shark Week is finally covering my all time favourite prehistoric beast… MEGALODON!!!!!!!
I love Megalodon because it is the coolest fucking creature to ever exist, but It also helps that the movie "Shark Attack 3:Megalodon" has one of the greatest scenes in cinematic history. Plus, it stars John Barrowman, who has the funniest line to ever be in a movie, EVER!
And now back to another segment of "Look at what I forgot I had on my iPhone (and am about to watch right away)"
I found these at my local comic book shop today.

Oh yes,
I'm back with another Nebbiolo wine and my box isn't empty yet.
Today we are tasting from the NINO NEGRI winery, their cuvee LE TENSE (d.o.c.g. Valtellina Superiore Sassella) - 2007
As I told you in my previous post (wine #068) , the Valtellina region is located in Lombardy in Italy and the conditions are a bit like Douro, but the the frozen version of that Portugese region. The vineyards consist of slate and are located on slopes in a valley with an east-west orientation. It is optimal for the vines, but not for the winemakers. A lot of money is spent on equipement to work on the vineyards, all grapes are manually harvested and there are even winemakers who tried to work with helicopters to make the work on the vineyards less hard. Can you imagine?
This wine is aged in oak. After a short maceration of 4 days and a 2 months in stainless steel tanks, 80% of the wine is transferred in new and used oak barrels, and strangely enough, the other 20% is transferred in big Slovanian oak vats. I have no idea why they do it, but I am sure it will add some complexity and I am really curious about what I will find!!
I'm ready, are you?
The colour gets me all excited. This wine looks dense but is transparent at the same time. The same brown / brick shades as we found on the previous wines are combined with a nice viscosity. Yes!
First of all, I smell fresh red prunes all over my glass. The ones that are so juicy that when you bite, your hand and arms get all wet, and you feel little drops crawling up your sleeves.
It is clear this wine passed a part of his life in barrels. I'm not saying it has the typical oaky notes, but there is stuff and complexity going on you wouldn't find in an unoaked wine.
Amazingly well integrated are notes of leather, coffee, musk, mushrooms (loving this one), rozes and a slight hint of caramel.
What I especially like is that all the notes are in harmony and very fresh and natural. You feel a great expression of nature, and nothing was forced or added in the lab.
Oh wow, this is so delicious.
I did not get an attack of acidity right away, but when I started to add oxygen in my mouth, it felt like I was sucking the juice out first, and flavour would follow next. And that is how it should be.
I cannot tell you one bad thing about this mouthfeel. Acidity is always there, the tannins are megasoft, no alcohol that spikes in the back of my mouth. It is one hell of a ride to taste this and I wouldn't doubt one sec to score this 100%.
Caramel coffee, herbal syrup, leather. The finish is as amazing as the nose and the mouth.
This wine really has it all. Muscles, elegance, finesse, balance and complexity. Just a classic, authentic, well trained gentleman.
What a blast!

When the Government Comes Knocking, Who Has Your Back?
Hat tip to Josh Stearns for making us aware of this 2012 report.
Via the Electronic Frontier Foundation:
When you use the Internet, you entrust your online conversations, thoughts, experiences, locations, photos, and more to companies like Google, AT&T and Facebook. But what happens when the government demands that these companies to hand over your private information? Will the company stand with you? Will it tell you that the government is looking for your data so that you can take steps to protect yourself?
The Electronic Frontier Foundation examined the policies of 18 major Internet companies — including email providers, ISPs, cloud storage providers, and social networking sites — to assess whether they publicly commit to standing with users when the government seeks access to user data. We looked at their terms of service, privacy policies, and published law enforcement guides, if any. We also examined their track record of fighting for user privacy in the courts and whether they're members of the Digital Due Process coalition, which works to improve outdated communications law. Finally, we contacted each of the companies with our conclusions and gave them an opportunity to respond and provide us evidence of improved policies and practices. These categories are not the only ways that a company can stand up for users, of course, but they are important and publicly verifiable.
While some Internet companies have stepped up for users in particular situations, it's time for all companies that hold private user data to make public commitments to defend their users against government overreach. The purpose of this report is to incentivize companies to be transparent about what data flows to the government and encourage them to take a stand for user privacy when it is possible to do so.
Read through for the report's findings.

Space News of the Day: Three Exoplanets May Be Life-Sustainable
After four years circling space looking for new planets, the Kepler spacecraft has identified three planets that look like they could possibly sustain life. The first two, known as Kepler-62e and Kepler-62f (shown above, top and middle), are approximately 1,200 light-years away and have estimated temperatures of -3 degrees C (26.6 F) and -65 degrees C (-85 F) respectively. The third planet, Kepler-69c (shown above, bottom) boasts a summer day-like temperature of 27 degrees C (80.6 F). Some scientists think these planets could actually be covered in oceans, but they are unsure if they would be composed of water or some other liquid.

Quote reblogged from WIL WHEATON dot TUMBLR with 21,596 notes
What kind of world do we live in when young men are so proud of violating unconscious girls that they pass proof around to their friends? It's the same kind of world in which being labeled a slut comes with such torturous social repercussions that suicide is preferable to enduring them. As a woman named Sara Erdmann so aptly tweeted to me, "I will never understand why it is more shameful to be raped than to be a rapist."
And yet it is: so much so that young men seem to think there's nothing wrong with—and maybe something hilarious about—sharing pictures of themselves raping young women. And why not? Their friends will defend them, as they did in Steubenville, tweeting that the young woman was "asking for it" and that the boys were being unfairly targeted.
Women and girls are the ones expected to carry the shame of the sexual crimes perpetrated against them. And that shame is a tremendous load to bear, because once you're labeled a slut, empathy and compassion go out the window. The word is more than a slur—it's a designation.

Who was your favorite athlete growing up?
I was a pitcher, so I was always a big Nolan Ryan fan. He threw 7 no hitters, and that was always my goal, every time I stepped on the mound. Unfortunately, once I turned 13, I needed more than one pitch, and I couldn't get away with being inaccurate. I was a pretty good pitcher until then, but after that I was pretty inconsistent. Like Nolan Ryan, I was a power pitcher. But also like Nolan Ryan, I had control issues. A lot worse than he did, though.
Some of us have a specific moment as a kid that turns us into sports fans. Did you? What was yours?
I think I started enjoying sports as soon as I started playing, which was when I was 4 or 5.
I'd like to attend a World Series game at Fenway Park.
You have been known in the past to make wagers on game with other members of FanIQ, tell me about a few of these, what did you wager and how did it turn out?
I'm probably under .500 on those, to be honest. I still owe a week of a profile picture in a Steelers jersey. I haven't forgotten.
Many sports fans have a moment in their teams career that makes them proud to be a fan. Is there a moment like this for you? if so which moment?
Nothing will ever compare to the 2004 ALCS, when the Red Sox came from behind to win, after falling behind 3 games to none against the Yankees.
As a follow-up, there are also moments that your team has let you down, do you have any moments like this? if so what?
The 2003 ALCS was painful. Grady Little had been taking Pedro Martinez out of games too early all year. But of course, once our bullpen finally showed some consistency with Mike Timlin, Alan Embree and Scott Williamson, Grady decided to leave Pedro in the game TOO long... and of course the Yankees tied the game, and then won it in extra innings on Aaron F***ing Boone's home run off Tim Wakefield... who also shouldn't have been in the game in that position, but that's an entirely different story.

Recently I encountered a blog entry describing a "beautiful" way of making the code more readable by creating a gereric helper method to perform object casting. Today I want to share some opinions about this improvement and general thoughts about coding.
The premise
In essence author of this post was trying to solve following problem: imagine you have a context object (HttpSession for example) that is used as a map of String keys to some possibly large, complicated generic values of different types. The contents of it are set by an external code out of your control. You can request any value from this context by specifying the key, but the interface contract is to return an Object so if you want to use it you need to cast it into proper type. In that case your code usually looks quite ugly:
1: 2: 3: 4: 5:
HttpSession session = getHttpSession() // We know that an attribute "phonebook" is a map // of names (String) to sets of telephone numbers (String) Map<String, Set<String>> phonebook = (Map<String, Set<String>>) session.getAttribute("phonebook");
The beautiful solution to that problem according to the author was creating following helper method:
1: 2: 3:
public static <T> T cast(Object obj) { return (T) obj; }
Now all you need to do is to import it in a static way in every class and replace the ugly casting with a short and readable invocation of our beautiful method:
1: 2: 3: 4: 5:
HttpSession session = getHttpSession() // We do not need to know anything about the type // of "phonebook" - cast() method does everything for us Map<String, Set<String>> phonebook = cast(session.getAttribute("phonebook"));
So what's wrong?
It may seem that this is a huge improvement for readability as before almost half of the code was casting, which obscured the real logic of the program. But this helper method in fact is no help at all, as it creates serious vulnerabilities to error. In fact it basically removes type-checking from your code and therefore makes every tiny error to appear in runtime instead of compile time.
The first problem you may run into is when by mistake you use incompatible types for casting. The chance of that happening is very high: it may happen just by copy-pasting wrong part of code, during refactoring when you change the type of object in the context or just because of naming confusion. The problem is not that error will happen but that you will find out about it only after running the program. See the following errors – all resulting in ClassCastException:
1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10: 11:
// Naming issue: some may think telephone number is actually a number Number telephoneNumber = cast("1234567"); // Refactoring: type of "digits" changed from List<Character> // to Set<Character> but not all places using it have been updated: session.setAttribute("digits", setOfDigits); List<Character> characters = cast(session.getAttribute("digits")); // Copy-paste error: this line was copy-pasted from other // place in the code and the old key was left by mistake String authorName = cast(session.getAttribute("authorId"));
The errors shown above are serious, but not the worst thing that can happen. Since there is no way for the compiler to find them it is very possible that they will appear during code execution, possibly in production crashing your application. The good thing about them is that when they'll appear you will get a stack trace pinpointing the location of an error. The following code shows a worse kind of error – the one that will kill your program and leave you no clue why that happen:
1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10: 11: 12: 13: 14:
// we have a map of Integers to Integers Map<Integer, Integer> integerMap = new HashMap<Integer, Integer>(); integerMap.put(123, 123); session.setAttribute("map", integerMap); // Because of an error we cast it to a map of String to String Map<String, String> badMap = cast(session.getAttribute("map")); // we pass the map between many objects and doing many operations on it String s1 = badMap.get(1); badMap.put("2", "2"); String s2 = badMap.get("2"); String s3 = badMap.get(2); String s4 = badMap.get(123);
It is obvious the mistake was made, but when it will manifest itself? Unfortunately this will not happen in line 7 when casting is done. Even the code in lines 10-13 will not result in a exception! Due to many factors (see posts about map type safety and checked set) the error will wait until line 14 to crash your application. The stack trace you will get probably won't help you much as line 14 in reality may be far away from the place when casting is done.
Is there a way to make it better?
The biggest problem with the cast() method is not the casting itself, but the uncontrolled way it is being done and the vulnerability to simple code editing errors. You might say: "The cast() method is far from perfect, but still most of the errors above apply to the normal casting. So maybe it's worth to use it to gain readability?" No, it's not. There is a better solution for the problem of dealing with context-like objects: writing an adapter for it that will provide a readable and type safe interface. See the following snippet:
1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10: 11: 12:
public class HttpSessionAdapter { private final HttpSession session; public HttpSessionAdapter(HttpSession session) { this.session = session; } public Map<String, Set<String>> getPhonebook() { return (Map<String, Set<String>>) session.getAttribute("phonebook"); } }
This adapter provides type-checking and allows to encapsulate all vulnerabilities in one place, therefore drastically decreasing the chance that anyone using the session's attributes will make an runtime error. What is more it also gives a boost to readability of the code – now to get a phonebook no casting or attribute requests are needed, you just ask the adapter for it!
1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7:
HttpSession session = getHttpSession() HttpSessionAdapter sessionAdapter = new HttpSessionAdapter(session); // You do not need to know now the phonebook type, as // Java typing will enforce it. Also you do not need to know // the structure of session nor the names of the keys! Map<String, Set<String>> phonebook = sessionAdapter.getPhonebook();
It is important to state that this solution is not bulletproof, but thats because of the way we stated the problem. The fact that we do not control the types of objects originally inserted into the session can cause an runtime exception if an error in inserting occurs. To remove that vulnerability we would have to add 'set' methods to control the types of inserted object the same way we control it in 'get' methods.
You may be tempted in solving your problems by using the features of Java in a non standard way, trying to find magical solutions that show your deep knowledge of the language. Unfortunately this very often leads to design decisions that are more 'cool' than thought trough. Whenever possible try to obey the OOD rules as they usually are the most reliable and error/change proof of coding, even if at the time you do not see the direct benefits from that.

Not long after I start my career at the museum, we have a firedrill. A mandatory drill for all security guards in which we learn what to do if the building starts burning to the ground. While I don't like coming to work on my day off, I would like to know what to do in this situation so I show up bright eyed and bushy tailed, ready to learn all there is to know about this emergency evacuation plan. A few minutes later and we're done going over the plan but I'm left confused. I don't understand why half of the museum would be told to evacuate using the emergency exit stairs (built to withstand high heat/fire) and the other half would use a main staircase (which by the way is NOT built to withstand fire.) And what REALLY blows my mind is that the half that are using the emergency exit stairs actually stop on the 2nd floor at a locked door which leads back into the museum, wait for another guard to open it from the inside and then they all exit through the main entrance.
I can't be the only one thinking it, so I ask the question "What happens if the guard on the 2nd floor can't get through the fire to open that door? Then everyone is locked in the emergency stairwell?"
My bosses response? "Why wouldn't they be able to get there? It takes two minutes?"
Ummm… how about the fire that's hypothetically ripping through the museum as we speak!? I would imagine two minutes feels much longer when your lungs are filled with smoke.
My boss does not respond well to being challenged and I do not like to make a scene so I let him win this battle but decide to use the suggestion box to explain how to make this plan more efficient. Basically my suggestion says, "Have everyone exit through emergency exit stairs all the way to the ground floor emergency exit doors." My boss is confused by this and needs clarification. Even after I spend 15-20 minutes explaining how this would work, he still doesn't get it. The next week the plan changes. Now he decides not to use the emergency exits at all. Everyone goes down the main stairs and exits out the main doors. This is the opposite of improvement.
Someone else must have explained my plan to him in terms that he understood because soon after, the plan changed to something similar to my suggestion. Apparently my boss didn't fully understand the plan though and gave me the task of leading the firedrills for the next week or so. What an honor!
If you were wondering at any point whether or not you'd be able to keep a straight face when your boss suggests that staff and visitors go back into a burning building, I'll leave you with a direct quote from the man himself.
"Don't smile during the firedrill. I don't want to see any smiles because this is serious stuff. I'm gonna be pissed off I see any of you smiling or laughing."
