"Safe Harbor" Statement
"Safe Harbor'' Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: With the exception of historical information, the statements set forth above, including, without limitation, those relating to the proposed acquisition of Endace and Emulex's expected non-GAAP earnings per share for fiscal 2013 and 2014, contain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or changes to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances. We wish to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include the possibility that the proposed acquisition of Endace Limited (Endace) is not completed on a timely basis or at all, the effects of the proposed acquisition of Endace, including our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the potential acquisition of Endace on a timely basis or at all, and our ability to integrate the technology, operations and personnel of Endace into our existing operations in a timely and efficient manner. In addition, intellectual property claims, with or without merit, that could result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays, require us to indemnify customers, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, which may or may not be available. Furthermore, we have in the past obtained, and may be required in the future to obtain, licenses of technology owned by other parties. We cannot be certain that the necessary licenses will be available or that they can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we were to fail to obtain such royalty or licensing agreements in a timely manner and on reasonable terms, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Ongoing lawsuits, such as the action brought by Broadcom Corporation (Broadcom), present inherent risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Such potential risks include continuing expenses of litigation, risk of loss of patent rights and/or monetary damages, risk of injunction against the sale of products incorporating the technology in question, counterclaims, attorneys' fees, incremental costs associated with product or component redesigns, and diversion of management's attention from other business matters. With respect to the continuing Broadcom litigation, such potential risks also include the adequacy of any sunset period to make design changes, the ability to implement any design changes, the availability of customer resources to complete any re-qualification or re-testing that may be needed, the ability to maintain favorable working relationships with Emulex suppliers of serializer/deserializer (SerDes) modules, and the ability to obtain a settlement which does not put us at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, the fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage market segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. The current weakness in domestic and worldwide macro-economic conditions and related disruptions in world credit and equity markets that are creating economic uncertainty for our customers, as well as the storage and converged networking market as a whole, has and could continue to adversely affect our revenues and results of operations. As a result of these uncertainties, we are unable to predict our future results with any accuracy. Other factors affecting these forward-looking statements include but are not limited to the following: faster than anticipated declines in the storage networking market, slower than expected growth of the converged networking market or the failure of our Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate our products into their systems; our dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, decrease in or delays of orders by any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make timely payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of our products or our OEM customers' new or enhanced products; costs associated with entry into new areas of the server and storage technology markets; the variability in the level of our backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of our customers; any inadequacy of our intellectual property protection and the costs of actual or potential third-party claims of infringement and any related indemnity obligations or adverse judgments; the effect of any actual or potential unsolicited offers to acquire us; impairment charges, including but not limited to goodwill and intangible assets; changes in tax rates or legislation; the effects of acquisitions; the effects of terrorist activities, natural disasters, and any resulting disruption in our supply chain or customer purchasing patterns or any other resulting economic or political instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for our products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effects of changes in our business model to separately charge for software; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; possible transitions from board or box level to application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher-end to lower-end or mezzanine card products; a faster than anticipated decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of our products; delays in product development; our reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; our ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; our ability to benefit from our research and development activities; our dependence on international sales and internationally produced products; changes in accounting standards; and any resulting regulatory changes on our business. These and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements and are discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our recent filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, under the caption "Risk Factors."

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality.

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Connected devices and the Internet of Things are getting significant momentum in 2014. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Hunter, Chief Scientist & Technology Evangelist at Greenwave Systems, examined three key elements that together will drive mass adoption of the IoT before the end of 2015. The first element is the recent advent of robust open source protocols (like AllJoyn and WebRTC) that facilitate M2M communication. The second is broad availability of flexible, cost-effective storage designed to handle the massive surge in back-end data in a world where timely analytics is e...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Health Benefits of Coconut Oil
With the whole world reporting health benefits from olive oil, one other healthy oil is often neglected – Coconut oil. And while oil in foods is shunned in most modern kitchens, fats by themselves are an important source of energy and are intrinsic to healthy living. Cutting them out is a bad idea, although not all fats are created equal. While some fats are highly processed and unhealthy, certain others like the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are healthy and essential. Since our body can't produce these fats, it's important to include them in your dietary intake. Here's looking at health benefits from Coconut oil and why including it in your daily diet in moderation is a good idea.
Coconut oil and the world of coconut products have got a nasty reputation these days due to faddish research. It gets a bad reputation primarily due to the fact that it contains saturated fats, despite these being the healthy saturated fats. There is a clear demarcation between saturated fats that are bad for you and those that are not.
Builds immunity: Lauric acid is a medium chain fatty acid, which is abundant in coconut oil (about 50% in composition) and is considered responsible for many of its health benefits. The only other abundant source of Lauric acid found in nature is in human breast milk and provides protection against infections to babies, whose immune systems are very delicate and still developing. This fatty acid is also easily absorbed by the human body and used instantly as energy.
Stable for cooking: Coconut oil is very stable for cooking, no need for refining, no need for hydrogenation, improves metabolism and is rich in fatty acids which supports the immune system. It remains stable at high heats retaining all of its benefits, while adding a delicious flavour to the cooked food.
Weight loss and boosting metabolism: Coconut oil and coconut products can boost thyroid function by 20%. Having an efficient thyroid is essential for our bodies to carry out several functions including boosting our metabolism and energy production.
Antibacterial: Coconut oil is anti-bacterial and anti-fungal and will help your body fight off infection, which makes it a great ingredient for home cooked food if you're unwell or feel something coming on. This is thanks to it being converted to Monolaurin by the body which fights off infections (viral or bacterial).
Still not amazed? Here's another fascinating factoid: In the 1940′s, farmers tried to use coconut oil to fatten up their cattle, only to have their plan backfire. They ended up with lean, active cattle with increased appetites!

Album Info
In Donald Barthelme's 1982 story "Lightning," the narrator, a journalist investigating lightning strike survivors, reflects that "lightning changes things; the soul burns, having been struck by lightning." He wonders about aesthetic (and supernatural) dimensions—is "lightning an attempt at music on the part of God?" Three decades later, as the catastrophic effects of climate change encroach upon the realms of science fiction, how might our communications and social conventions change, becoming correspondingly weirder and darker? Weather is, after all, both a formulaic conversation starter across cultures and a shared condition that connects us experientially. So what happens when "How about this weather?" becomes a less banal and much more compelling, and dangerous, question?
While ecological unease worries at the edges of Steve Gunn's bold new full-band album Way Out Weather—the breathing sea of the billowing title track, the bad wind and moon over "Wildwood," the polluted pyramid and blue bins in "Shadow Bros," the desert heat sickness of "Atmosphere"—the resonance of the title is primarily metaphorical and oblique. Written largely while on tour, the record is an elliptical but seductive travelogue, more engaged with navigating foreign ("way out") emotional landscapes, and with grasping at universal threads of language and narrative, than with bemoaning rising sea levels.
Despite the album-opening lyric to the contrary, "Way Out Weather" is an uncommon song in Steve Gunn's discography. Sonically and lyrically the album demonstrates a radical evolution, lighting out for lusher, more expansive, and impressionistic territories; it's his first major work as an artist for whom the studio provides a critical context. A more enigmatic and elevated affair than its predecessor, Way Out Weather completes Gunn's satisfying transformation into a mature songwriter, singer, and bandleader of subtlety and authority. It ranks as most impressive and inviting record yet, an inscrutable but entirely self-assured masterpiece.
The critically acclaimed Time Off (2013), his first full-band album highlighting his vocals, represented the culmination of Steve's steady fifteen-year migration from the frontier fringes of the guitar avant-garde, where he is regarded as a prodigy, and toward his especial style of more traditionally informed (albeit deconstructed) songcraft. Those songs developed from years of woodshedding and performance, offering a linear, local narrative that mapped the contours of Gunn's Brooklyn neighborhood and a matrix of musical friendships, earning him a broad new following.
Less patently intimate, Way Out Weather angles for something far more cosmic, dynamic, and widescreen in sound and sentiment. In contrast to the interiority of Time Off, these eight decidedly exterior songs aren't grounded by the specifics of geography, instead inhabiting headier, more rarefied altitudes (see in particular the ethereal "Shadow Bros," "Fiction," and "Atmosphere.") They step beyond home and hover above horizon, unmoored from immediate circumstances and surroundings. Here Gunn's discursive, mantric guitar style, at once transcendent and methodical—and as influenced by Western guitarists such as Michael Chapman and Sonny Sharrock as by Ghanaian highlife, Gnawa, and Carnatic forms—maintains its signature helical intricacy and mesmeric propulsion, while buoyed by a bigger crew of musicians, a wider instrumental palette, and higher production values than ever before.
Belying their ambitious new scale and scope, most of these songs arrived at Westtown, New York's scene-seminal Black Dirt Studio as skeletal solo demos. An enthusiastic and generous collaborator—recently he has partnered with Kurt Vile, Michael Chapman, Mike Cooper, the Black Twig Pickers, Cian Nugent, et al.—Gunn assembled an accomplished group of comrades to flesh out the full arrangements, trusting the germinal songs to an instinctual process of spontaneous composition, transposition, and improvisation. The WOW studio band comprised longtime musical brothers Jason Meagher (bass, drones, engineering), Justin Tripp (bass, guitar, keys, production), and John Truscinski (drums), in addition to newcomers Nathan Bowles (drums, banjo, keys: Black Twig Pickers, Pelt); James Elkington (guitar, lap steel, dobro: Freakwater, Jeff Tweedy); Mary Lattimore (harp, keys: Thurston Moore, Kurt Vile); and Jimy SeiTang (synths, electronics: Stygian Stride, Rhyton.)
This preternaturally intuitive and inventive band allowed Gunn to sculpt the album as a composer and colorist as well as a player. The cascading runs of "Milly's Garden," the menacing urgency of "Drifter," and the alien, galvanic syncopation of album closer "Tommy's Congo" (the latter unlike anything Gunn has heretofore recorded) display a thrilling mastery of heavier, increasingly kinetic full-band arrangements. His vocals throughout are more present, commanding, and refined, revealing a restrained but highly nuanced baritone capable of remarkable grace.
Way Out Weather is Steve's career-defining statement to date. Lightning changes things; the soul burns.
- A radical widescreen evolution, featuring a larger band and lusher arrangements, this is the virtuosic guitarist and songwriter's career-defining statement to date
- Available on 150g virgin vinyl as an LP, with deluxe tip-on jacket and full-color inner sleeve, as well as on gatefold CD and digital formats
- Vinyl edition includes digital download coupon
- Featuring photography by KT Auleta, Dan Murphy, and Constance Mensh
5 stars; #6 Best Album of 2014. Way Out Weather motors slowly but powerfully, like some 70s muscle-car cruising lazy coast-roads, safe in the knowledge of its own killer torque. The album title may abbreviate as a guileless "WOW!", its bright melodies flickering like autumn sunlight on evening waves, but Gunn's rolling lyrics deal with darker aspects – the ill omens of climate change, society's lonesome outcasts, occluded Dylan riddles of impending apocalypse – that infuse the meander and drift of these lazy beguiling songs with a manifest chill, the dark rain clouds up ahead on that perfect summer drive that says sweet times now, bad times coming. You couldn't wish for a more fitting musical soundtrack to the rest of your 2014.
– Andrew Male, MOJO
8.0. Way Out Weather is the fully formed pinnacle of his career. With a full band and plenty of instrumentation behind him, the care he puts into every nook and cranny of a song is evident. It's lush but without lacquer, detailed without being dense. These songs live in hollowed out holes of America's past; it's as easy to imagine him playing in front of a disused gas station off an Oklahoma highway as it is to hear his band booming out of a roadhouse on the Mississippi Delta. At times, there's so many guitar tracks it it feels like in the middle of a pickup jam session with Jerry Garcia, Duane Allman, and John Fahey.
- Jeremy D. Larson, Pitchfork
The guitarist blends the traditional and the avant-garde, fusing the sounds of John Fahey, The Grateful Dead and Will Oldham into back-porch masterpieces. Gunn's virtuosic guitar work is still the main attraction, but his backing band of session players gives the [album] a Rolling Stones-circa-Exile on Main Street vibe. Simultaneously earthy and epic.
- Otis Hart, NPR's All Songs Considered
This is masterful, textured and gorgeous. The double-tracked melodic lead guitars billow in like warm sheets of rain. You can sense, as a listener, that every single player has the same overall shape in their mind, and you can feel them all pushing towards it.
- Jayson Greene, Pitchfork
Way Out Weather marks the completion of Gunn's transformation from a master guitarist into a songwriter who can trust in his own voice and arrangements as much as his spectacular fretwork. He's thrown open the windows and let the light in, as he embraces pristine, lush production that makes guitars sparkle and drums crack.
- Max Savage Levenson, NPR Music
Our heads are blown. How did this NY guitarist become a cosmic-psych visionary? Assured groover "Milly's Garden" feels like it's been around forever.
- MOJO Playlist, September 2014
4 stars. The melodies seemed soaked in a timeless well of American music: the album feels both new and familiar at the same time, every song a clever layering of Gunn's guitars.
- Michael Hann, The Guardian
8/10. Steve Gunn is managing the transition [into a classic singer-songwriter] with uncanny elegance, fold[ing] his old jamming imperative into beautifully constructed songs. He sings plenty, with engaging huskiness, while leading his band down ever more inventive tangents… Eco-fear played out with a sun-damaged languor.
- John Mulvey, Uncut
Way Out Weather is big-hearted and expansive, its windows thrown open to the world, [its] lines and contours beautifully rendered. Perhaps the best thing he's ever done… relentlessly inventive. Way Out Weather unquestionably accomplishes its goal: fully transforming Gunn from a guitar hero into a respected songwriter. That's no easy feat.
- John S.W. MacDonald, The Quietus
Following 2013's excellent Time Off, this is a fuller, richer-sounding album. Gunn is an incredible guitarist, [and this is] a sun-dappled, easy highway song, the gleam of guitar pressing against the tarriness of Gunn's voice.
- Laura Barton, The Guardian
Mesmerizing. Gunn's singing echoes his playing: It is relaxed and intimate, like a late-night conversation with a trusted confidant, and it gently draws you into the hypnotically beguiling songs… Maybe my favorite guitarist right now. Breathtaking.
- Steven Hyden, Grantland
The complexity of the songwriting on Way Out Weather is a clear indication that it's the work of a seasoned professional going someplace deeper. There is a profound craftsmanship to what he does here. Gunn really pushes the boundaries of what an acoustic guitar can express… It sounds like the bastard lovechild of La Monte Young and Jerry Garcia or a slightly sinister Krautrock meets Laurel Canyon-flavored version of Terry Riley's "A Rainbow in Curved Air."
- Richard Metzger, Dangerous Minds
8.5/10. Way Out Weather mixes various musical styles – folk, classic rock, psychedelia, space rock, dub hues, West African grooves, open-tuned raga drones – to arrive at a genre-defying, expansive sound that's simultaneously tight and totally, winningly loose, sparsely uncluttered yet richly textured in a way that rewards repeated spins. The outcomes are frequently sensational… A giant leap forward.
- Janne Oinonen, Line of Best Fit
It's a record that still shows Gunn's incredibly wide arsenal of skills on the guitar, both acoustic and electric, but he and his band trade dust in the light for glimmering shards that shape themselves into the beautiful mosaic this album is.
- Matthew Fiander, PopMatters
This is the most elaborately arranged thing Gunn has ever done, jammed full of understated yet excellent guitar. Perfectly placed licks that reference Richard Thompson, Jerry Donohue, Robert Fripp, Sneaky Pete Kleinow, and Ali Farka Toure make it a veritable encyclopedia of guitar sounds. It moves with a blend of head-down purpose and furtive apprehension—an apt soundtrack for a world where you need to keep one eye on the street and the other on the weather.
- Bill Meyer, The Wire
Channeling both John Fahey and Philip Glass, his riffs purl back on themselves to form odd, impossible shapes. The result forays into wildly diverse territory, as though folk and blues, jazz and raga, psychedelia and heavy rock were simply points on a map.
- Stephen Deusner, Wondering Sound
It's impossible to just talk about Steve. He's too good! I just want to listen to him. Hearing Steve, I was completely blown away, beyond. It made me want to be a part of it myself.
- Kurt Vile
My favorite new artist.
- J Mascis, Pitchfork
Appalachian mandalas. Cosmic folk songs that feel highly intricate and effortlessly propulsive, like Robbie Basho sitting in with the Doors.
- Chris Richards, The Washington Post
Gunn is blessed with a voice as rich and warm as Tim Buckley or a young Van Morrison.
- Nick Southgate, The Wire
After last year's exceptional Time Off, the new guitar master continues to expand his vision.
- Uncut Playlist
Goes from ramshackle Southern-fried folk-rock to psychedelic intrumental jam and back again. It's a gorgeous piece of work.
- Tom Breihan, Stereogum
An immensely intuitive sense of songcraft. … Weather paddles out to the horizon of what is possible without ever losing sight of the shore… spiritual and visceral, laid back and intense, challenging and mellow.
- Sean Maloney, Magnet
4.5/5. His marriage of folk music with Grateful Dead style psychedelic rock has reached a state of perfection. A gentle and generous helping of soul food.
- The Sun (UK)
Way Out Weather sees Gunn delving deeper into folk rock contemporization, now applying more intricate production and atmospheric arrangement, somewhat akin to early-'90s Crazy Horse playing a show in a city on the clouds.
- Mike Sugarman, Ad Hoc
With a larger ensemble in tow, Way Out Weather is more colorful than its predecessor, evoking the full band interplay of Fairport Convention or Van Morrison and band live at Montreux in 1974. The band sounds exuberant, like prime Dead.
- Jason Woodbury, Aquarium Drunkard
Gunn is a wonder to behold on his new album. By turns cosmic and circuitous, Way Out Weather ushers Gunn into classic singer-songwriter territory.
- James Reed, The Boston Globe
An ethereal yet crusty, backwoods-style gem. Gunn offers world-weary introspection and pedal-steel–bathed radiance, shuffling ditties and homegrown swamplands chug.
- Brad Cohan, Time Out New York
Perhaps the most cohesive track-by-track performance released this year. Its existence is in flux—the tracks interact in such a way as to create newness with each listen. His work is strangely familiar; an acid flashback less jarring than it is a friendly reminder that present reality isn't the only realm of possibility.
- Will Schube, Passion of the Weiss
One of the foremost players of his generation, skilled yet never flashy. Much like fellow Philadelphians Kurt Vile and the War on Drugs, Mr. Gunn tucks nimble, folk-indebted guitar work into a rock-band setting.
- Andy Beta, Wall Street Journal
8.5. It's likely you're going to find something profound about his ninth studio album, Way Out Weather. Gunn's newest expansion of his aural minefield is ripe with explosive pockets of brilliance. This record sounds alive, breathing, organic and full of potential and exploratory ambivalence.
- Ryan Prado, Paste
Though Gunn's throaty baritone and stunning guitar work remain pillars of his earnest sound, a new sheen of blues-inspired grittiness abounds.
- Josh Terry, Consequence of Sound
Meditative and mellow, the songs float along on soft waves of intricate, hypnotic guitar lines and the Brooklyn singer/songwriter's low, gently exhaled lyrics. Call it otherworldly country blues. His trance-like finger-picking, earthy vocals and brooding, abstract lyrics put you into a fugue state.
- Carla Gillis, Now Toronto
Way Out Weather is the type of transcendent rock explosion that makes you feel like you're swirling through space and time, images of dandelion fields and amber waves of grain, and you know, America, all lazing by your eyes.
- Philadelphia Inquirer
Exhilarating. This is the new, ghostly classic rock.
- The Big Takeover
Way Out Weather is an expansive journey of sound and memories. Absolutely brilliant.
- Ben Young, The Revue
Steve Gunn's definitive statement. Evocative slow-burning majesty.
- Richard Lewis, Bearded Magazine
The premiere artist in the John Fahey inspired, post-Jack Rose realm of fingerpicked, raga-meets-American folk. With Way Out Weather, he takes an even grander step forward both in terms of arrangement and improvisation, as well as the roster of musicians he has aboard.

So i am building an application that will have lots of windows, all with the same basic layout:
- A main Window
- A logo in the top corner
- A title block
- A status displayer down the bottom
- An area for window specific controls.
At the moment i have to recreate this structure in every window. Ideally i want this layout to be coded in a single place, perhaps into a custom Window subclass for ease of use. Does anyone have any clues for how to get started, or previous experience with similar problems?

Despite Real Estate Reforms, Housing Market In Cuba Sputters
April 21, 2014
Fox News Latino
HAVANA — The residents of 308 Oquendo Street were jolted awake in the middle of the night by violent shaking and a noise that they likened to a freight train, or an exploding bomb.
Part of their building's seventh floor had collapsed into the interior patio, heavily damaging apartments on the floors below. No one died, but the 120 families living in the building were left homeless....

Resident Evil 6
My Thoughts on the Trailer, and some questions.
If Wesker Jr. is actually Wesker's biological son, I'm going to be pissed.
It'd actually be the stupidest thing to happen to this series.
A clone, well, yeah, that'd make 7000% more sense than his son.
But maybe this is Capcom's way of saying "Hey guys, Wesker totally WASN'T gay, SEE, he's a daddy now!"
Same with Jill marrying Chris (If that's even true?). They're just trying to bury the sexual tension. :/ awks.
Also, Chris without Jill in a RE game is stupid. But Capcom loves them some Chris when Jill could easily be the more interesting character.
Also, Where the hell are Rebecca and Barry; and if they end up being evil, I'm going to EAT Capcom.
Also, what happened to Leon's Face? Chris looks pretty much the same as RE5 and Leon's been on crystal meth? cool.
Finally, I'm calling it now, Leon's new partner does not make it to the end of this game. :/
Er...you know Wesker was human before the mansion right? Is it so inconceivable that he knocked a girl up and then skedaddled?
If HK-47 and GLaDOS had a child, the awesome character they create would cause the video game world to explode. Join the Revengers! (board#: 587986)
I totally disagree with you.
First off, I think in a story sense, having a character that is biologically linked to one of the greates antogonists in the Resident Evil universe allows itself interesting story developments. For example, him being compared to his father yet not wanting to be anything like him. How about to make amends with Chris for everything Wesker put him through? Like Chris could be very untrustworthy of Jake because he can't help but see Weske rin him. The clones wouldn't necessarily have the same connection to Albert Wesker as an unkown son would have, he doesn't even realize who his father was/is.
Second Jill without Chris in your opinion is stupid, which is fine. I can understand how after the events of RE1 and RE5 you feel that way. However, in my opinion, Jill had the samllest impact to the overall story. In fact, I feel she was a stronger character by herself in RE3: Nemesis and for practically the entire game scenario of RE1 both Jill and Chris were seperate characters in their own right. It's like saying Rebecca should be with Chris or else an RE game is stupid.
Third, Leon and Chris both look different and I for one like the look. Leon was cool n' all in RE4 and Degeneration, but for the sake of movement in time it makes sense that he'd look older and rougher. Chris looks hella different than he did in RE5, I actually feel his design is a hybrid of the RE: Remake Chris and RE5's Chris. I didn't mind his look in 5, but again that's subjective.
Finally, I hope for dramatic effect that some of these main characters die. he only problem being it'd have to be in a final cutscene or an introduction of yet another character for the sake of cooperative play. In the trailer Sherry's palm is covered in blood. Perhaps she'll be reunited with her parents? Or maybe Jake made the ultimate sacrifice completer polar opposite of what his father would do? I can only hope since none of the main characters have died in a Resident Evil game aside from Steve, but even then, he was really secondary when you played most of the game as the Redfields.
On another note, and just to be clear this is my thoughts, I feel that this game is truly what a "game of the year" game is all about. Before its announcement, I was calling Bioshock Infinite as game of the year, but seeing as how Capcom is pushing a genre forward and raising the bar for what gameplay mechanics should be in a third person shooter, the scope and cinematic approach, pushing for a richer story, 3 complete campaigns, giving fans of both styles of Resident Evil something, and with everything else shown in the trailer that redefines the series as well as the genre this my friend's is what a game of the year should be.
Yes, I know he was a human before, but it was never in his 'character' to randomly bone some chick and walk away.
I mean, I didn't create him or anything, but I would see him in a manipulative relationship where his girlfriend/wife is on a tight leash and he does not seem like the kid-friendly type.
I totally respect your opinion, but allow me to elaborate,
I do agree that having Wesker's son; who wants to be nothing like his father is an interesting concept. What bother's me however is his origin. Without any rhyme or reason we're to believe that during his conquest of world domination that he had a kid? I know the series is bad for retconning things into the story, Like Wesker's infection in the first place, but this seems a little ridiculous, even after everything we've seen.
And the whole Chris/Jill thing, I'm a little biased. I played Jill in the original RE, and RE3 is my favorite. I'll admit I never did play Code Veronica, so I did miss out as playing as Chris. But the difference between the two, I feel, is Chris became your typical jar head, fast. Whereas Jill always just seemed to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. I always felt like the odds were against her more, putting her in more demanding situations, where as Chris always seemed too competent and capable. I felt more 'horror' whenever I played as her.
The whole Chris/Leon thing boils down to opinion, nbd.
As for the Characters dying, I have to admit that I'd be extremely disappointed if they killed off any of the characters from the first few games (Chris, Leon, Ada). But I'm not opposed to Hunnigan, Chris' or Leon's new partners dying, Wesker Jr, even Sherry now that you mention it. :/
And I mean, I love this series to bits. This game is gonna be HUGE and I'm going to love every minute of it. I just hope the plot doesn't boil down to the same Action plot that RE5 ended up being.
The mother isn't likely some "random chick" Wekser just boned. We probably get some kind of backstory in the game, likely during Jake's story, explaining who she was. And she is likely significant in some way. It might even help flesh out a whole new side to Wesker. You are only assuming the mother is a random chick who is not important at all.
At first you sound like you had sense.
Then you just trailed off into a rant.
I mean, to put it simply, Jill is probably on downtime, Leon is 38, there is nothing wrong with an antagonist having a son, and Chris suffers from PTSD which can offer interesting character development, considering he's been dealing with Wesker since Day 1 of RE.

Harvard University business professor Nicholas Carr says, "IT doesn't matter."
He argues that scarcity makes a technology strategic. Today, information technology has become a ubiquitous commodity like electricity or roads, not a strategic advantage. Smart
decision-makers are buying tried-and-true technology.
Risk management is now the most important task for IT managers. Security and reliability risks are important, but the biggest problem is overspending on IT. Buyers should "throw their weight around" in vendor negotiations and "impose hard limits on upgrade costs," Carr says (www.nicholasgcarr.com).
His thesis is causing some anger in the IT industry. Intel Corp. chief executive officer Craig Barrett calls it "pseudo-populist theory," adding that IT is unlike ordinary infrastructures, which don't let you put "content or value into what you are doing." But Carr's arguments are resonating in organizations burned by cost overruns, project failures and over-promised systems.
Several points are indisputable:
* An organization should buy only the IT needed to deliver measurable results supporting mission/business requirements.
* It should manage costs.
* It should work to pierce through hype, using techniques such as performance-based contracts to set clear expectations.
* It should gain leverage by collaborating, such as through user groups (e.g., FTS 2001) and enterprisewide deals.
* Finally, it should manage risk on all levels, including security.
Each of these points falls squarely into the ambit of the Office of Management and Budget's business case guidance. No one is getting a passing score if these elements and others have not been adequately addressed.
So, the business case is here to stay. Thinkers such as Carr raise the bar for suppliers and their customers who are explaining the value of additional IT investments to management. He also provides an insight that can be used to differentiate successful investment proposals: For IT improvements to be worthwhile, they need to be strategic.
In fact, IT is not ubiquitous. In many places, it is still strategic. Real-time information was the basis for victory in Iraq. Port security, border security, public health and critical infrastructure protection require staying ahead of threats that can be amplified by the malicious use of IT.
E-government also can be strategic. The failure to keep up with citizens' service expectations, or a malfunctioning tax collection system, will only further decrease public respect for American governance, with dangerous long-term consequences.
The argument that IT does matter begins by emphasizing how a particular investment will make a measurable and cost-effective difference in mission performance. That requires the buyer and suppliers to understand the business solutions, their effects on business processes, and the link between technology and mission well enough to know when the combination is a real winner.
