Janet Babin, Economic Development Reporter, WNYC News
Janet Babin is a reporter at WNYC covering economic development.
Mayor Bill de Blasio promised to create or preserve 200,000 units of affordable housing in the next decade. This Thursday he's expected to reveal how he plans to accomplish that goal as he's expected to unveil his official plan that day.
While officials are keeping mum, sources tell WNYC to expect these eight items could be a part of the proposal:
1. Increased allocations for affordable housing in the city's capital budget, possibly doubling from $5 to $10 billion over the next decade.
2. Some sort of tax on high end real estate property sales, similar to New York's mansion tax, but called something else.
3. Changes to city and state tax incentive programs like the 421A and J-51 that would perhaps require developers who use these programs to create more affordable housing in exchange.
4. A program to aggressively renovate or rehabilitate affordable units that already exist. Sources say more than half of the 200,000 goal will come from preserving these units.
5. Changes in zoning codes that might include changes in how development rights or air rights are sold, possibly allowing the rights to be transferred across boroughs.
6. Rules that would require developers to build a higher percentage of affordable units along with market rate apartments.
7. Stepped up requirements for maintenance of rent regulated apartments.
8. A more integrative approach to supportive housing and homeless services.
After being delayed, sources said the plan is now expected to be released Monday.
Your report on what to expect in Mayor de Blasio's affordable housing plan omitted any mention of whether it will bake in energy efficiency and storm/flood resilience as must-haves. Here's why this omission is troubling: Energy efficient building is by definition more affordable because it saves on monthly energy bills. Resilience will be important as new or rehabbed housing will push out to NYC's waterfront edges and must be built to cope with future storm surges and floods. These must-haves must be part of what every New Yorker expects and deserves.

DENTON-- This football season you'll be able to enjoy a cold one while watching the MeanGreen take on opponents at Apogee Stadium.
TheUniversity ofNorthTexas announced through MeanGreenSports.com Thursday that beer will be sold at football games starting Sept. 6.
'We carefully studied all issues related to making beer available in Apogee Stadium, and from every angle it makes sense,' said UNT President Neal Smatresk. 'At [University of Nevada-Las Vegas], my experience was that selling beer helped to more carefully regulate alcohol consumption and encouraged more fans to watch the game in the stadium. It also cumulatively improved revenues and had no negative impact on the overall experience of all fans.'
SMU announced it will sell alcohol at its football games this fall as well. The University ofTexas,Texas Tech, UT Arlington, UT-El Paso, UT-SanAntonio and the University of Houston already serve beer at athletic events.
The alcoholic beverages will be sold in controlled areas away from the north end zone stands, which are designated for families, MeanGreenSports.com said.
Director of Athletics Rick Villarreal says the school has been discussing adding beer sales since the stadium was constructed.
'In a market where we are in constant competition for the consumers' entertainment dollar, we have to provide the amenities sport enthusiasts expect. With the addition of beer sales in the stadium, we will now offer what venues like AT&T Stadium and the American Airlines Center have provided from day one,' he said.
Villareal says UNT hopes alcohol sales will help boost ticket, food and merchandise sales at the stadium as well.

Cutting Corners Is Bad Idea Whose Time May Never Come
Cutting corners to get ahead is a temptation that many investors have difficulty rejecting.
Suppose a stock forms a cup-with-handle pattern. Why wait for the breakout? Can't an investor get in cheaper by buying before the stock breaks out?
Income investors are particularly vulnerable to this temptation because they get a better yield via a lower price.
BlackRock ( BLK ), though, illustrates the downside of cutting corners. On Aug. 5, IBD noted that the stock shaped a cup-with-handle base. The potential entry was 288.92.
The situation seemed to have everything going for it. The pattern was in an early stage. The market was in a confirmed uptrend. The handle formed in quiet volume. The stock had institutional support. Quarterly earnings reported in July had jumped 34%, the best gain in almost three years. The annualized dividend yield was 2.4%.
BlackRock lacked only one thing -- a breakout. But that was coming, right? So why wait?
Actually, what was coming was a weakening stock market. After the Aug. 6 session, IBD's market outlook downshifted to uptrend under pressure. BlackRock declined for weeks, eventually losing its 50-day moving average.
Anyone who bought on Aug. 5 is still under the break-even point. If the same investors also ignored the 8% sell rule, their hope now is to make it back to break-even.
Do you notice the irony? Those who refused to wait for a breakout are now forced to wait for a chance to break even. Sometimes the best trade is the trade you don't make, and rules can help on that score.
BlackRock has work to do if it is to form a new pattern. The RS Rating is only 74, which partly accounts for its 80 Composite Rating.

Every Hero Has a Story this summer at the Sonoma County Library Summer Reading Club!
Read for fun and prizes this summer. Kids ages 0-12 are welcome to join the children's Summer Reading Club beginning June 9. Libraries will have free live performances, arts and crafts and more for all ages.
The Club runs from June 9, 2015 through August 1, 2015.
- Sign up at any regional library beginning June 9, 2015.
- Read to win prizes and a free book!
- We are BURSTING with books, crafts, stories and SPECIAL GUEST PERFORMERS!
Parents! Summertime is the perfect time for children to continue improving their reading skills. Bring your child to the library to check out books on all the subjects they love— those lazy summer days will be filled with imagination and exploration in the world of books!
All Summer Reading events are Free!
The 2015 Summer Reading Club is sponsored in full by the Sonoma County Public Library Foundation.
We are so grateful to the SCPLF volunteers for their commitment to supporting literacy programs at the Sonoma County Library. We also would like to express thanks to the donors in our community who give to the Sonoma County Public Library Foundation, for helping us to make this important program available to the children and teens of our Sonoma County communities!
Additional Sponsors:
Petaluma Seed Bank: For the third year in a row, the Petaluma Seed Bank has generously donated a packet of seeds for every child who participates in the Sonoma County Library Summer Reading Club.
Raley's NickelAid: Local grocery store chain Raley's makes a charitable donation of $.05 per bag for each time a patron uses a reusable bag in their stores, and those donations go to a charity chosen by their patrons. In 2014, Raley's patrons voted to award those donations to public library summer reading programs, so this year we are able to offer additional summer reading events in the four Sonoma County communities that host a Raley's grocery store.
These local businesses support the children in their community by providing incentives for kids to keep reading all summer long. Thank you for your support!

talking with you and just seeing how you're going about your trip has elevated my game a bit... and makes me want to hit the road for a trip of my own... um, when it warms up a bit.
it'd be a shame to see you miss out on baja and copper canyon, but i understand the safety concerns as a solo traveller in another country who doesn't speak the language and is riding a plateless vehicle with a giant "mule" sack strapped to the back...not to mention an arsenal of technology that would make inspector gadget weep. could make you easy prey for the law and the lawless. but i wouldn't let that stop ME ;)
good to see that i didn't dent your day
badly. looking forward to your continued posts (and here's some
light reading
should have a bit of café downtime)
a few of the photos i took to share with those who are following your trek...
there's just no way you could ever become a couch potato with a tattoo like this. you're now committed to living a life less ordinary. brilliant.
Funny how like minded we are, it was very inspiring to hear your stories and get to know you for a short while. I find it hard to believe my little ride in the U.S. could make you up your "game"...
I need to travel out of the U.S. - when not working - more. I need to do some backpacking so I'm forced to take it slow (walking speed) to really SEE things... After I move back out west we shall do some kind of travels... though as we both enjoy our solitude we can keep it short...
As for Mexico... many friends are really pushing me hard not to go, at least solo.
"what are you going to do at a military checkpoint when the 16 year old with the M-16 is asking you questions about where your going and you can't respond?" "after they search you and find your laptop and camera, it will be gone".
Even with this tattoo with this bold of statement I've committed to, I am concerned.
I think the best solution is for you to pack up your bike, meet me in L.A. and show me the way south! I can wait a little while if you're busy..... Though there's still the no plates or paperwork, on a financed bike....
A friends band is playing in Vegas tomorrow, might head there while I figure out where I'm going...
I have a Lumix LX-3 I keep in my tank box for easy access while riding. I used to be able to have my D90 around my neck on my R while riding, but on the GS it doesn't work without banging the lens against the taller bike.
Honestly the Lumix photo's are close enough to the D90's, as long as you don't crop. My photo's are about half and half, can you tell which camera took what? Obviously the low light stuff is with the D90, but without pixel-peeping daytime shots are harder to tell. All the 16x9 ratio photo's are from the P&S.
I'm in hermosa for today at least... PM or email me.
For those folks asking about my opinions about the GS... I did touch on the subject briefly a few posts ago, but give me some more time in the saddle and I'll do a comparison in a different thread once the trip is over.
Just remember I have zero DS experience except for this GS so I can't compare it to anything else but a Roadster... Two bike for two jobs, though it took me a while to figure that out, so I'd take my opinions lightly...
I foresee no problem with riding the miles ahead on this bike...
BTW, for you GPX geeks, I have my 1168 SPOT tracks from this journey so far on the welcome page of my site. No hosting available here...

Texas Architect Jan/Feb 2006: Schools
Texas Architect is the official publication of the Texas Society of Architects, each edition features recently completed projects and other editorial content largely written by AIA members in Texas. That collective participation was the basis of Texas Architect's recognition by the national AIA with a 2010 Institute Honor for Collaborative Achievement.
texas architect 48 1/2 2006 by REBECCA BOLES, AIA Out of the Box The expanding curricula at Texas Christian University has generated the need for new buildings. As new programs have been added, TCU has been consistently infilling the campus master plan, adding approximately 600,000 square feet of new construction since 1996. Steve and Sarah Smith entrepreneurs hall, completed in February 2003, represents the second joint venture at TCU between design architect ellerbe Becket and architect-of-record hahnfeld hoffer Stanford. The team also produced TCU's Tucker Technology Center the year before. Smith entrepreneurs hall is home to the Neeley entrepreneurship Program, but also houses classes for six undergraduate and two graduate programs within the M.J. Neeley School of Business. The entrepreneurship program, founded in 2000, offers a bachelor's degree in entrepreneurial management, as well as a master's concentration in entrepreneurship. The program pairs tradi- tional classroom instruction with student-driven team-learning, and private businesses provide mentoring and internships. Oriented along an east-west axis, Smith entrepreneurs hall encompasses 53,000 square feet on three floors. The building's rectilinear northern facade, composed mainly of brick with double- height window openings and a near-continuous third-floor clerestory, parallels a public street. By contrast, the southern facade is a gentle curve of polished Brazilian granite punctuated with glazing which establishes a dialogue with neighboring buildings and a main pedestrian pathway through campus. TCU officials wanted the design of Smith entrepreneurs hall to focus directly on students' needs, even going as far as to omit faculty offices from its architectural program. They asked the architects to create a place for students to call home while they work on the team projects. The team rooms are intensively used by marketing and entrepreneurship students and MBA graduate students. applied Brazilian granite accentuates the curved wall along the southern elevation. suspended from cantilevered steel trusses at the third-level floor, the perimeter wall appears to push out from the orthogonal core of the brick-clad main structure. project Sarah and Steve Smith Entrepreneurs Hall client Texas Christian University architect Hahnfeld Hoffer Stanford contractor Linbeck consultants Datum Engineers (structural); Baird Hampton Brown (MEP); Dunaway Associates (civil) design team Michael J.

This food is very wonderful, my rabbit used to eat food with other objects in it like seeds, but i found that he only ate the pellets. So i bought him this food, and when i go to feed him, i find his bowl empty.
Pros: It is not a messy food.
Cons: It can be very plain

People interact in September 2010 at a job fair in the Indiana Convention Center, Indianapolis. The addition of 15,400 new jobs to Indiana?s economy in April is ?absolutely amazing,? a University of Indianapolis economist said Friday, May 18, 2012.
- Filed Under
The addition of 15,400 new jobs to Indiana's economy in April is "absolutely amazing," a University of Indianapolis economist said today.
"In my position, you hate to exaggerate something too much," said Matthew Will, an associate professor in the university's MBA program. "But that is impressive."
The increase, in fact, was the fourth-largest one-month increase in private sector jobs over the past 22 years, according to an Indiana Department of Workforce Development report. From January through March, the state gained 24,000 workers. ...

Goto OS (trap to OS) 3) OS performs Place Replacement • Swap-out a page – (for now), pick random, Frame 21 – Pick a free block in the swap area (e.g. 710) – Copy content of frame 21 to block 710 – Update corresponding P2's Page Table entry • Swap-in the requested page – Copy content of block 700 to frame 21 – Update P1's page table entry (index 1) – Update TLB entry 4) Processor reexecutes instruction • Tricky due to side effects (e.g. mov (SP)+ already increments the SP pointer before page fault) • Need internal support from the CPU to rewind side effects (more in last lecture) 5 Page Replacement Which page in main memory should selected as victim? Random: Replace any page at random • Ex: ABCD in memory, E comes in, pick any from ABCD • Advantages: Easy to implement • Works okay sometimes, why? – When memory is not severely over-committed – When a process' memory accesses are random FIFO: Replace page that has been in memory the longest • ABCD in memory, A was swapped in before BCD, E comes in, then A is swapped out • Intuition: First referenced long time ago, done with it now • Advantages: – Fair: All pages receive equal residency – Easy to implement (circular buffer) • Disadvantage: – Some pages may always be needed (FIFO is not necessarily the way to use the memory) 6 Page Replacement Continued OPT: Replace page not used for longest time in future • Ex: ABCD in memory, E comes in, and future accesses are AAABBBCCCDDD, then throw away D • Advantages: Guaranteed to minimize number of page faults • Disadvantages: Requires that OS predict the future – Not practical, but good for comparison LRU: Replace page not used for longest time in past • Ex: AAAAABBCCD, and then E comes, A is throw out • Intuition: Use past to predict the future – But not account frequency (e.g. although A was frequently accessed in the past, A is the one that is not used for longest time) • Advantages: – With locality, LRU approximates OPT • Disadvantages: – Harder to implement, must track which pages have been accessed – Does not handle all workloads well 7 Page Replacement Example (with Answer) Page reference string: ABCABDADBCB Three pages of physical memory Questions: • Which pages are in memory? And which access causes a page fault? FIFO: OPT: A B C A B D A D B C B A B C A B D A D B C B 1 A . D . C 1 A . . C 2 B . A 2 B . or 3 C B 3 C D . C LRU: A B C A B D A D B C B FIFO: 7 page faults 1 A . . C OPT: 5 page faults 2 B . . . LRU: 5 page faults 3 C D . 8 Page Replacement Comparison Add more physical memory, what happens to performance? • LRU, OPT: Add more memory, guaranteed to have fewer (or same number of) page faults – Smaller memory sizes are guaranteed to contain a subset of larger memory sizes • FIFO: Add more memory, usually have fewer page faults – Belady's anomaly: May actually have more page faults! 9 Implementing LRU Software Perfect LRU • OS maintains ordered list of physical pages by reference time • When page is referenced: Move page to front of list • When need victim: Pick page at back of list • Trade-off: Slow on memory reference, fast on replacement. Why? – OS trap for each memory reference – On replacement, OS gains control anyway, so just do a little extra work Hardware Perfect LRU • Associate register with each page • When page is referenced: Store system clock in register • When need victim: Scan through registers to find oldest clock • Trade-off: Fast on memory reference, slow on replacement (especially as size of memory grows) In practice, do not implement Perfect LRU • LRU is an approximation anyway, so approximate more 10 • Goal: Find an old page, but not necessarily the very oldest Design Clock Algorithm • A clock with a hand, page frames around the clock, the hand sweeps the pages to find a victim page Hardware • Keep use (or reference) bit for each page frame • When page is referenced: set use bit • (Note: since the HW sets the use bit (not the OS), must have HW support to implement clock algorithm) Operating System • Idea: – Look for page with use bit cleared (has not been referenced for awhile) – Never loops infinitely • Algorithm, on page fault: – Check use bit • 1 clear use bit, advance hand, and repeat algorithm • 0 replace this page (write to disk if dirty, update the old and new TLB entries), advance hand, stop Example: 11 • When system boots?

During the last decade child mortality has reduced significantly in a number of African countries, largely due to increased access to diagnosis and treatment for three of the leading causes of death among young children: pneumonia, diarrhoea and malaria. Yet in 2012, Unicef and partners estimate that 6.9 million children died before they turned five, the majority from these preventable diseases.
65-91% of childhood deaths from these three diseases could be prevented, according to an article (pdf) in the Lancet's child survival series, if low cost interventions such as antibiotics, oral rehydration solution, insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and anti-malarial drugs, were delivered at scale in low-income countries.
Based on these figures, by increasing access to and uptake of these proven lifesaving interventions, community health workers – properly trained, equipped and deployed – have the potential to support a reduction in child deaths from pneumonia, diarrhoea and malaria by up to 60%.
The approach, known as integrated community case management (ICCM), involves providing basic training and supervision to selected volunteers who are then able to provide diagnosis, treatment and referral for these common childhood killer diseases at the community level.
Maintaining the effectiveness of ICCM programmes, however, whilst bringing them to scale has been challenging, largely due to problems with high attrition rates and low performance of community health workers (CHWs). With support from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the InScale project – led by Malaria Consortium in partnership with the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and University College London – has been working to identify and seek innovative solutions to these barriers.
"Community health workers are key in improving the health and the care-seeking behaviours of children and caregivers," says Dr Karin Källander, InScale Programme Coordinator. "Finding innovative ways to improve their motivation and ensure that they continue to deliver the health care services that they are trained to provide, we expect will greatly impact on ICCM programme implementation and improve health outcomes in communities. Our extensive research into these innovations has been highly consultative and CHW centred; we hope this has resulted in truly community owned interventions."
The lessons learned during the development of InScale's innovative approaches have been published in a paper, "Developing intervention strategies to improve community health worker performance and motivation".

Aircraft cable tensiometers - I use them all the time in my work. So my guess is that you are comparing one spoke to the next to see what the reading is? Not a bad plan. I'll have to pass this little new technique on to the boys at work - I'm sure we'll have a few of them go missing from the tool stores as the boys head home to check out their Harleys...
I have to give support to the other inmates who are calling for a check of your top end, transmission and other associated important bits - for corrosion and degradation during storage. You have a wonderful specimen and I would hate to see your other efforts go to waste if the basic machine had some glaring faults from the extended storage. I would dig into it as well.

Spotted salamanders exposed to contaminated roadside ponds are adapting to their toxic environments, according to a Yale paper in Scientific Reports. This study provides the first documented evidence that a vertebrate has adapted to the negative effects of roads apparently by evolving rapidly.
Salamanders breeding in roadside ponds are exposed to a host of contaminants from road runoff. Chief among these is sodium chloride from road salt, which reaches average concentrations of 70 times higher in roadside ponds compared to woodland ponds located several hundred feet from the road.
"While the evolutionary consequences of roads are largely unknown, we know they are strong agents of natural selection and set the stage for fast evolution," said Steven Brady, the study's author and a doctoral student at the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies. "These animals are growing up in harsh environments where they face a cocktail of contaminants, and it appears that they are evolving to cope with them."
Brady found that salamanders in roadside ponds have higher mortality, grow at a slower rate and are more than likely to develop L-shaped spines and other disfigurements. In roadside ponds, only 56 percent of salamander eggs survive the first 10 weeks of development, whereas 87 percent survive in the woodland ponds. As roadside ponds become more toxic, the surviving salamanders may develop a genetic advantage over their counterparts living in woodland ponds.
The salamanders that survive year after year in the roadside ponds appear to have adapted to the harsh conditions. "The animals that come from roadside ponds actually do bettersubstantially betterthan the ones that originate from woodland ponds when they're raised together," Brady said.
That animals adapt to human activities is not altogether new. For example, fish have begun to mature at smaller sizes in response to commercial fishing. But whereas humans directly

Detroit's Big Three automakers returned today to Capitol Hill to take another stab at getting $34 billion dollars of your money.
Now I happily pay taxes for a good cause. But bailing out the Big Three? Give me a break.
This week, when the CEOs descended on Washington to plead for money, they came by car.
"I'm proud to say that I drove a hybrid here from Detroit," Chrysler CEO Bob Nardelli told reporters.
I guess they didn't like the backlash they got last month when Brian Ross pointed out that they'd flown in on private jets.
Despite the criticism, the three CEOs left Washington as they had arrived -- on their luxurious corporate jets -- a fact not unnoticed by the committee.
Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., said, "Raise your hand if you're planning to sell your jet in place now and fly back commercial. Let the record show no hands went up."
This week the Big Three said they'd get rid of their jets, and cut other costs, because they need our money.
Also present at this week's hearings: Ron Gettelfinger, head of the United Auto Workers union, who says employees are not to blame for Detroit's problems.
"It's not our fault that the economy is in the tank," he said.
But is it just the economy that threatens the Big Three?
Toyota isn't asking for a bailout. Neither are Honda or Nissan. Yet, they all sell and build cars in America. In fact, while the Big Three were begging for your money, workers at Honda celebrated the first cars coming off their new assembly line in Indiana.
Why can Honda do it, when the Big Three can't? Well, Gettelfinger's union is one reason. The Big Three have to deal with strikes.
The UAW even got the Big Three to create places where longtime workers who are not needed are still paid 95 percent of their wages to just sit. They wouldn't allow us to videotape these so-called jobs banks, but Linda Swan saw them when she worked for Ford.
"For the most part our people just sit inside and do nothing," she said.
Sen. Bob Corker. R-Tenn., was one in Congress who thought jobs banks were a good reason not to bail out carmakers.
"I understand the good job Mr. Gettelfinger is doing on behalf of the employees that are not working but still being paid," he said.
Corker told me that if they idle a plant, they have to pay these employees for four years after the fact.
"There's not an industry in America that is like this," he said.
Last month, Gettelfinger said the union would make no concessions, but this week he said they would suspend the jobs banks.
Economist Peter Morici of the University of Maryland says the automakers are only making cosmetic concessions.
The union would have to concede much more to make the Big Three's workers as efficient as say, Honda's. Honda just hired 900 Americans to work in Indiana.
"How can Detroit possibly compete against Honda paying $29 an hour plus benefits when Honda pays $18.41 an hour," Morici asked.
"The wage package is just too rich in Detroit, the benefits package is just too rich and the cars show it. The upholstery is not as nice. Why? Because they have to pay these high labor costs so they use cheaper materials," he said.

Hi guys,
Due to an encounter with unemployment that will be starting for me in a week, I plan on writing some iPhone apps (I'm a software engineer, amongst other things) to pay for my lunch if nothing else. I know about the Massive Dev Chart app and use it myself; I'm posting this here to see if there are any other applications that you think would be useful.
I have a handful of ideas so far that I intend to implement over the next few weeks assuming I can get XCode sorted but more ideas are always welcome, particularly if it's for some burning need you have.
When pondering this, try to think if there's some annoying process that you'd like automated; don't worry too much about how to solve it (though obviously I will not be selling an iPhone app that implements an E-6 minilab... there are hardware limitations!), just give me a list of all the annoying crap that you'd prefer you didn't have to do and hopefully I can maybe make some of it easier.
Large-format people in particular, I'm looking at you: bellows correction factors, scheimpflug-rule angles, etc.
Also, what's the deal with announcing such apps on APUG? I don't want to spam and annoy people but I want to make people aware of my apps on the presumption that you'd find 'em valuable and send me lots filthy lucre.

Killer Instinct vs Guilty Gear Xrd
- Back To:
- Board List
- Topic List
- Topic Archived
What will be the more refined fighter? Which game has better fighting mechanics based off past iterations? I haven't played past iterations of these fighters. All I know is that KI will be running at 720p 60 fps while GGXrd will be running at 1080p 60fps and that each game will each be exclusive to one brand.
The statement below me is true.
The statement above me is false.
Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- is going to knock Killer Instinct down REAL HARD!!!
PSN ID: ecosvaldo | 3DS Friend Code: 2707-1633-0103 | PC: http://pcpartpicker.com/b/ABH
We are talking about a fighting series that haven't had a game for 17 years, being developed by a company that's known to produce games that wont reach over 50 at metacritic (their best game is Silent Hill: Homecoming which actually got as high as 70) VS a fighting series that is considered by several sources to be the greatest 2D fighting game, created by the same company that created the earlier games and the loved BlazBlue fighting series?
I'm sorry Microsoft, but my money is on Guilty Gear.
GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC
You're comparing a real fighting game, Guilty Gear, to a glorified demo with in-game transactions to buy couple more characters. Not much of a challenge.
I would say it's very hard to compare at this point. We know soooo much more about how the fighting mechanics will work in KI at this point.
side note, that sadira looks like a cross over biatch to fight against.
As for the guilty gear game I haven't been able to find out nearly as much. Only have heard there is a similar feel to MvC.

Is this a troll topic? There´s no more need to have 100% of the people coming here telling you how hard GG is going to own KI in every way, and by every way I mean every hole, nooks and crannies.
KI is a rushed tech demo with 6 characters.....................
Having a dream is essential to live.

? you should check some of those links I put in. KI is certainly more than a 'tech demo'. It has cross overs, launchers, mix ups, combo breakers (also combo breaker breakers??), poking, zoning ect. It's a full fighting game.
I'm guessing you are referencing the F2P model. That to me just depends on implementation. It certainly can't be any worse that Capcom's approach of a few new chars and some tweaks to the mechanics then charging full price like it's a brand new game :/

"Killer Instinct vs Guilty Gear Xrd"
I lol'd.
The Storm Is About To Rage.....
Xrd wins by a mile.
Although the thing here is, KI is probably releasing earlier than Xrd. Depending on when Xrd releases it might be KI Season 2 vs Xrd.
Still though, once Xrd releases KI will be left in the dust.
Somehow I feel this topic should have been made on the PS4 board. Apparently sony fanboys can now tell the future and see how well a game is going to be lol Hate to say it but none of you have played Xrd or possibly KI for that matter. How about if you want this garbage, do it on your own board where other fanboys can agree with your mindless garbage about your made up superiority.

Really? The pic on their website shows many many boats anchored just off the fort? Could be old pic though, I tried calling them today but there is no one in the office until later this spring.
I have to say the current line up of bands did not make me want to hassle with crowded harbors distant moorings and ferry's. I think I will wait to see if they add any true headliners before making any kind of commitment.

New tech: Augmented reality for real estate search
LOS ANGELES Try out real estate "augmented reality" mobile phone applications and the cascade of thoughts goes something like this:
Very cool. Just hold up the mobile phone, peer through the camera view and scores of properties for sale and rent will suddenly be visible, like some super x-ray!
Here we go. Hmmm. Nothing.
OK, maybe if I just spin around a little. There!
Wait. What's with the floating dots? Is that it? And the nearest property is a mile away, beyond several buildings and a highway overpass. How is this helpful again?
So-called augmented reality technology works on mobile phones like the iPhone 3GS or models with Google's Android operating system. It uses the phones' camera, GPS, compass and Internet features to conjure a computer-enhanced, virtual overlay of objects in one's surroundings. The concept is similar to a heads-up display one might find in a jet fighter cockpit.
The usefulness of some augmented reality apps can be instantly recognized - say you find yourself in an unfamiliar neighborhood looking for the nearest bus stop or subway entrance. Augmented reality can point you in the right direction and show you the relative distance to your destination.
But as a tool for finding homes for sale or rent, augmented reality produces results that feel more like a novelty than a novel improvement on the mobile real estate search experience.
One reason is the technology, while used by the military for years, is still relatively new for applications like real estate search, says Larry Fisher, research director for NextGen, a unit of ABI Research, a technology trend tracking firm.
"It can be useful, but ... it's really limited at this point," Fisher said. "It's going to take a couple of years to develop."
A good way to start is to punch up your mobile phone's app store and download Layar. It's available on iTunes and via the Android app store.
Layar compiles a variety of augmented reality apps, including several real estate-oriented ones by Trulia.com, HotPads.com and ForRent.com, among others.
Online brokerage ZipRealty Inc. recently added augmented reality to its iPhone mobile app, a feature dubbed HomeSearch.
The apps all function in similar fashion: The user's phone camera view is activated with a radar-like graphic showing the direction of properties for sale relative to one's position.
Users can set common search parameters, such as number of rooms, price or asking rent, as well as distance from one's location.
When a user pans the phone in the direction of a property listing, small graphics - colored dots or similar markers - pop up in the field of view. Each marker represents a home available for rent or for sale, depending on the app.
Users can tap on the touch-screen buttons to see more details like prices, photos, address and more.
Results can vary widely, depending on your location.
The ideal experience would be to stand, say in a cul-de-sac, where one or more houses are for sale. Then, you'd just point the phone at the property and see all the details pop up. Get far enough away from the properties, and the results can become hard to make out.

Waroeng Tan Poh
Jalan Legian No. 355, Bali, Indonesia 80361Map
Legian, Kuta
+62 361 764313
Neighborhood: South Bali: Kuta & Legian, Seminyak
Cuisine: Indonesian
Tucked away off the main high street this secluded open air restaurant is a real find and an utterly romantic spot amid all the bustle and noise of downtown Kuta. Tables are placed beneath two huge mango trees, which are wonderfully illuminated in white lights. The menu consists of perfectly prepared Indonesian fare, such as seafood noodles, chicken sate and crispy duck. It's worth noting that the service far exceeds the norm for this price bracket. Diners have access to Wi-Fi and a billiard table in a covered pavilion. There is also live acoustic music at weekends. Waroeng Tan Poh is a real hidden gem and is well worth taking the effort to find. - Ray Montgomery

The Bombay High Court has upheld the government's policy that only auto drivers with the minimum qualification of having cleared their standard 8 exams will be eligible for a permit in Thane. The court rejected a petition filed by two auto drivers challenging the policy on grounds that it would deprive illiterate drivers of the means of earning a livelihood.
Govind Tilve and Bhaskar Bhog had approached the high court to contest the decision of the State Road Transport Department to have educational qualifications for permits. Their petition stated that most drivers were illiterate and belonged to the unorganised sector. They had also sought for the lottery system used for distributing permits to be scrapped.
However, the RTO filed an affidavit through advocate Molina Thakhur stating that while preference was given to candidates who had passed their SSC exams, then would also consider those who had passed the 8th standard. Arrangements had been made for cyber café owners to help candidates fill the online applications. The affidavit also stated that online applications eliminated the need for middlemen and the curtailed the possibility of fraud.
"We received 1.50 lakh applications for the lottery. This shows that there was an equal demand for online applications which offers convenience and transparency," said advocate Thakur.

EuroBasket Women
The EuroBasket Women 2011 Draw took place on Saturday in Lodz, Poland, in front of a sizeable crowd of National Federation representatives, coaches and journalists from around Europe.
If one thing was made clear to the attendees during the bright ceremony it was that reaching the Final, let alone conquering Gold this summer, will be as hard as negotiating your way through the snowy roads of Lodz in mid-December.
Champions France find themselves in a difficult group, featuring Greece, Latvia and Croatia.
EuroBasket Women 2009 silver medalists Russia will not have it much easier in Group A, against Turkey, Slovak Republic and Lithuania.
Group B sees the two sides that caused the biggest stir in the recent FIBA World Championship, Czech Republic and Belarus, facing each other.
Hosts Poland will take on the 2009 Bronze medalists Spain as well as Montenegro and the team that will qualify through the Additional Qualifying Tournaments, in Group C.
EuroBasket Women 2011 will take place from 18 June to 3 July. The city of Bydgoszcz will host Group A and Group B, while Katowice will play host to Group C and Group D and the Final Round will take place in Lodz.
The Additional Qualifying Tournaments (AQT), which will decide the sixteenth team to take part in the competition, will take place in Hungary and Italy.
Hungary will host Group A (Bulgaria, Finland, Hungary, Netherlands and Ukraine) in Sopron, while Italy will play host to Group B (Serbia, Belgium, Germany, Italy and Romania) in Taranto.
Both round-robin groups will be staged June 3-8 next year. The winners of the two groups will then play each other in home and away games, on June 12 and 15, with the winner securing the last EuroBasket Women 2011 spot.
The four First Round groups are:
