Good news for fans of the best studio show in televised sports: Charles Barkley will be returning to the set of "Inside the NBA" soon. The man with a thousand vices was placed on an indefinite leave in early January after a DUI arrest on December 31. You probably remember that quite well. As for when we can expect Barkley back, well… soon. Kinda soon.
(And by April, it'll be okay for Kenny and Ernie to make fun of this.)
Turner Sports president David Levy told the SPORTS BUSINESS JOURNAL that a final decision on the date of Barkley's return wouldn't come until after the All-Star break (article is subscription only, sorry kids) , which is in about two weeks. Levy said the decision would be made on a "gut feel," and this is where you start running through the "fat guy" jokes in your brain.
Whether Levy's decision to schedule Barkley's return for after the All-Star break has anything at all to do with TNT's preposterous decision to let Geico rename the game of "HORSE", well, we doubt the network would admit that's a factor. Still, you know Barkley thinks it's a horrible idea, and keeping him as far away from a TV camera as possible is the best move.
Now, the most interesting part of this story is undoubtedly what Barkley's going to say about the arrest and suspension once he gets back on the air. As we mentioned before, he's a man of many vices, but principal among those is honesty. We suspect there'll be some self-flagellation for the litany of bad decisions that led to his arrest, and while that's not usually entertaining television, it's the only way Barkley can retain any credibility in the eyes of his fans. A scripted, carefully worded apology always rings false - mainly because 95% of the time, the people who give public apologies are politicians, who are all lying liars.
No, Sir Charles should approach this with its appropriate gravity, but with the same unfiltered candor that he treats everything else. If he does that, expresses genuine remorse, and briefly touches on the effect it's had on him (not too much, because honestly, most people probably won't care about the details), then we can move on and he can get back to doing what he does best - besides swinging a golf club, of course.

Android vs iOS
Android and iOS are both operating systems for cellular phones and tablets. Android runs on a variety of phones and tablets, while iOS runs exclusively on Apple iPhones and iPads.
Operating System[edit]
Android is an Open Source project headed originally by Google, and now by the Open Handset Alliance. iOS is proprietary software developed by Apple, although it is built on top of some Open Source components, such as WebKit.
Android has an open framework to allow anybody to modify the operating system itself and to develop applications for it. Apple provides an SDK for the iOS that allows developers to access most of iOS's features, but is highly restricted.
Programs written for Android are usually written in java, although other languages also run on the JVM and host CPU. All applications released through the iPhone and iPad App Stores must be written in C, C++, Objective-C or Swift. It is rumored that Android's Dalvik virtual machine may eventually allow use with other bytecode languages like Python and Ruby.
iOS is exclusive to Apple Computer iPhones and iPads. No one else can make a device that runs iOS.
The Android OS is available for use by any manufacturer or end user who wishes, and at no cost. The Android OS, due to its open nature, is also available for use on other devices besides just mobile phones and tablets, such as netbooks, UMPCs/MIDs and even desktops.
iPhone Models[edit]
- iPhone (first gen)
- iPhone3G (second gen)
- iPhone3GS (third gen)
- iPhone4 (fourth gen)
- iPhone4S (fifth gen)
- iPhone 5 (sixth gen)
- iPhone 5s
- iPhone 5c
- iPhone 6 (seventh gen)
- iPhone 6 Plus
the iPhone OS is also used for the iPod Touch series of portable music players and in the iPad tablet.
Android Phones[edit]
Due to its open nature, Android has been installed aftermarket by enthusiasts to such hardware as the OpenMoko Free Runner, Nokia N770, N800 & N810 MIDs, and Asus EeePCs.

Why Read This ReportEstablishing meaningful security metrics is a key initiative for chief information security officers (CISOs) today, and for nearly all of them, it's a struggle. Some CISOs use a broad brush approach, using operational metrics to demonstrate security. The problem with this approach is that most people don't understand what the metrics are saying, and they don't understand how these metrics help them make better decisions. Good metrics are easy-to-understand, incite actions, and change behavior by providing a clear idea of why the audience cares. When CISOs present metrics, they must be able to clarify "What it means" and have answers when stakeholders ask, "What's in it for me?" This paper provides guidelines to develop a well-formed security metrics strategy that drives behavior change and improves performance. This report was originally published on January 17, 2012; Forrester reviews and updates it periodically for continued relevance and accuracy.

The thirty minutes I saw of the third Deus Ex game were exciting, but raised a lot of questions. So although I had time to ask game director Jean-Francois Dugas some wide-ranging stuff about Deus Ex 1 and 2, I was particularly keen to grill him on the ins and outs of how this game's systems actually work when you're playing. Refreshingly, he was willing to answer in detail on almost every subject. Without further ado:
PCG: What did you like most about Deus Ex?
Dugas: A lot of things. Actually it's fun because when I think about this, I remember when Ion Storm the studio was born and everybody was working on Daikatana, and I don't remember their other game, and there was this little game I was reading about in PC Gamer one day. "Deus Ex? That sounds interesting."
When this game came out it was like, "Wow, this title is surprisingly subtle". What I liked about first was the universe, those characters and this film noir story. I was really immersed into it. Then it was that with creativity alone you can solve your challenges; that was really cool back in the day.
For me, a really good part was that the game was answering back to what you were doing. It wasn't really necessary to destroy everything or to kill everyone. I was like, "Gosh!" It was the first time ever that I had that kind of experience. So those things all together were really key aspects.
PCG: Yeah, on the first level, if you kill absolutely everybody, I hadn't noticed until recently, but your brother has a completely new line of dialogue: "You're a complete jackass!"
Dugas: [laughs] But that was strong, because even today not many games do that.
PCG: There seems to be a focus on making content that all players will see because everything is so expensive to make, and takes so much time. You don't want to record more dialogue unless everybody's going to hear that line. Anyway, how does the hacking minigame work?
Dugas: Actually, today on purpose we didn't talk about it, just to let you understand what you can do with it. But basically it's very simple. It can be deep, but the basics are very simple. It's a network, and you just enter from the IO port and you need to reach the registry, to get your information. Basically you have a data-course of routing that is protecting the network. As you capture nodes to get to the registry, on each node you capture there's a probability of being detected. If you're detected, the subroutine starts to trace you back to your point of entry, and at that moment you try to get to the registry before it gets to you.
If it doesn't wake up because your hacking abilities, augmentations, have hit the roof, then you can just go to the registry without being detected. If you're detected, the computer locks, the alarm rings, if there are still enemies around they'll go in to investigate the area, things like that.
PCG: So it sounds quite a lot like the System Shock 2 hacking, but with an extra layer added on.
Dugas: Actually yes and no. Yes in the sense that it's a minigame like in Bioshock. I mean it's not the same minigame, but it's a minigame. But the other aspect is that you totally stay in the game. So, today was hacking, but he could have looked with the camera, looked around if enemies are coming. So basically, if there's an enemy next to you, trying to hack might not be a good idea, because you can get shot at and killed.
PCG: For me, the moment that I got Deus Ex was when I realised that if there's two guys around a corner, you can't just run around and shoot them both. It seems, from the demo we saw today, that you're incredibly powerful in Human Revolution. Do you force the player to think around situations, or can he always shoot his way through?
Dugas: We're balancing the game, but in the demo you've seen today, it wasn't possible to die. He was invincible in the first place. That was more to showcase the game and the potential. In the game itself, we don't want it to be a run and shoot game. We're balancing it out like if you try to run and go at the enemies, 2, 3, 4 bullets maybe, and you're dead.
I mean, you can acquire the augmentations and the weapons that will make you a very kick ass killer on the field, but it doesn't mean that it's running all over the place, it's going to be hard. So, taking cover, looking at the possibilities and trying to find other ways, are all the possibilities that will often times save you from dying. It's really important to us to balance the game in a way that is going to encourage you to explore the augmentations, to explore the maps, to explore all the different tools around you.
It doesn't mean that it's going to impossible to be a straight shooter, but it's going to be quite challenging.
PCG: What are the rules for when you can do takedowns like the wrist-blade stabbing moves?
Dugas: The rules are very simple. You need to have the augmentation, and you need to get close to an enemy.
PCG: Does it matter whether they can see you or not?
Dugas: If they see you and you're not dead, it's going to be a different animation, because you're up front so it's not the same thing as surprising them from behind. What I've been explaining today is that basically there are two ways you can off them. You can press the button to kill them, or you can briefly press it just to make them unconscious. So when all the arm hatches are opening and he's going with his blades then it's killing, but if they're not opening then [it will be non-lethal]. So it's all in the player's control. Basically you can come from the front and still do it, but you need, to come in from a corner and surprise him. If you come from afar and you try, he's going to start shooting at you, and the chances that you survive are low. It can happen, but they're very low.
But you can do them anywhere, anytime, it's up to you. It's contextual, but it's not scripted. You could go in the city and do it to the civilians in the store and everything, but it's not necessary.
PCG: Those wrist-blades: do you upgrade them to unlock a specific move, or can you do all the moves with them as soon as you get it?
Dugas: Yeah, actually, you don't have to unlock anything for that. The way we see it is that getting close to an enemy should be a challenge on it's own, and it's more of a reward for getting close to the enemy.
PCG: So you can do stuff like knocking people out right from the start of the game?
Dugas: Yep!
PCG: On the very first loading screen of that demo, it had a little tip about the different things the strength upgrade. Do you just keep upgrading strength and that unlocks those different functions, or do you have to choose, "Okay, I want to be better at lifting things," or "I want to be better at punching down walls"?
Dugas: Basically, the way augmentations work, it works on two levels. There's the money economy, with the credits, and you also have the XP points. So at the Limb Clinic, you go there to buy the basic augmentations. Let's say the legs, something in your cranium, things like that. And for all the augmentations that you buy you have different abilities associated to that augmentation. Those can be unlocked by spending XP points. So when you go to Limb Clinic, this is the only time when you can buy the new augmentations, but with the XP points, you can level up any of the augmentations that you already have at any moment. You get those arms, those legs, and it's like Jensen is getting used to having them and is able to do more things with them, to explore their full potential. That's the idea behind it.
PCG: What do you earn experience points for?
Dugas: Shooting guys, playing a map stealthily, discovering a hidden area, hacking successfully, convincing a character to do something for you, and even by failing you still get XP points. You get XP points for doing critical path missions, you get XP points for side missions... and I missed a lot of things.
What is cool is that the game rewards you on a constant basis for the smallest thing you do. You can play for ten minutes and still have a few more points.
PCG: Do you spend those same points to upgrade your weapons?
Dugas: For the weapons, those are physical upgrades that either you buy or you find in the world. And you attach them to your weapons. If you want a mental image, it's similar to Deus Ex 1 and Resident Evil 4.
PCG: We saw Adam smash through a ceiling, drop down and blow up everyone in the room. What was that?
Dugas: It's two augmentations. Francis used one, used the other next to it, so it looks like one huge scripted moment, but it's not. Basically the first one is the Icarus Landing System, which allows you when you have this augmentation to fall or jump from any heights without taking damage. So this augmentation, when you try to explore all over the place and you're scared that you're going to fall, it's a good idea. Basically there are two ways to use it. The first way is that if you don't press any button, you're going to land super smoothly, not making noise. If you hold the trigger, he's going to do the punch and stun people around.
If you have the Claymore augmentation, now you can do what he did with his arms and those claymores to make them explode.
PCG: So that's one of those you'd have to go to the Limb Clinic and buy?
Dugas: Exactly. And then you need to refill the charges, because every time you use it it takes a charge. If you don't have any more you can't use it. With all the augmentations- or, not all, but the active ones, you spend energy bar. If you don't have any energy you can't use your augmentations any more, so you need to refill. Like, let's say Claymore takes that , and the takedown takes that , so they all have their chunk of energy that they take.
PCG: Okay, but you have a universal energy bar.
Dugas: Yep. But we don't have universal ammo. [laughs]
PCG: Does the energy regenerate over time?
Dugas: Basically the way it works, it's kind of a different system where at first you have two pips of energy, and you can upgrade to five, six. When you deplete one pip, that doesn't replenish. You need to find the right item to replenish it. The only one that replenishes all the time is the first one. So the first one, when you're totally empty, over time slowly it's going to replenish, but for one. But to replenish it all, you need to explore and find the items.
PCG: And do those takedowns cost energy?
Dugas: Yeah. You cannot just run and do it all the time.
PCG: Makes sense. We saw him use the crossbow, which was always my favourite weapon. Can you still use it to tranquilise people?
Dugas: Right now it's a lethal weapon. We have other weapons that are more non-lethal, but the crossbow in this game is more lethal. It's more mean.
PCG: I guess since it does skewer people to stuff, they're probably not going to survive.
Dugas: It's quite brutal.
PCG: Can you give an example of a non-lethal weapon?
Dugas: We're not ready to unveil all the guns yet, but obviously you'll have guns that are going to put people to sleep. Some are just going to frazzle them and things like that. When we reveal the guns later, we'll have the non-lethal ones.
PCG: When Adam paid to get into the club in the demonstration, you said that you could have shot the guard outside to get in. If he'd done that would the police have followed him inside?
Dugas: I mean, if he would have done it, it would have been a huge priority just to survive, because there are bouncers inside, outside, there are the Bell Tower Security lurking in the streets. You could survive, but it's going to be tough. It's an option, but you must be ready to have one hell of a time. The key with social environments, we balance it in a way that we don't encourage it. It's still possible, but we balance it in a way that if you want to do it it's because you really feel like doing it.
PCG: I noticed you could drag corpses around. What happens if a guard finds one?
Dugas: If they're not dead, they're going to wake them up, and both of them are going to look around for you. And if the guy's dead, the guy is going to go on alert and just patrol around, and if he sees his friends, he'll be like, "Watch out, there's someone around." So if you decide not to kill anyone, then hiding them to make sure that they are not awakened is a good idea.
PCG: You can pick up crates and stuff. Can you also take cover behind the stuff that you've placed?
Dugas: Yep, like the crate he moved to go on the side of the big gate in the second part of the level, he could have taken this with him, put it there, take cover behind it. So he can move his cover.
PCG: Can you destroy one of those huge Boxguard bots with normal bullets?
Dugas: Actually, the way we balanced the game with the enemies, it's systemic. In the sense that it's not, "Oh, if you don't have this weapon you cannot kill him." You could have just a simple pistol kill this big robot, but hopefully you have tons of bullets with you. It's going to take a while. For the purpose of the demo we made it more vulnerable as well, it was one rocket and it's dead, but for the final game it might take more than one rocket to kill it. We don't prevent you from using [any weapon]... obviously some non-lethal weapons won't do anything.
PCG: So it's like in Deus Ex - it was possible, I think, to destroy bots with bullets eventually, but it took a ridiculous amount of time.
Dugas: It was. I've done it, so it's possible, but you need to be really really patient and have a lot of ammo.
PCG: The only way I've ever done is to hack a turret to attack enemies, then watch through a computer terminal until the bot comes in range. It's kind of hilarious, you could just watch it pound away.
Dugas: You can do it in Deus Ex: Human Revolution as well.
PCG: Awesome. But I presume that if you're in the middle of a hack and the bot comes into range, it will attack you?
Dugas: Yeah, absolutely, if you don't plug away from the computer you're going to die.
PCG: Yeah. It was always funny in Deus Ex: if someone ran into the room while you were looking through the camera, they would just kind of stand there waiting for you to finish.
Dugas: [laughs]
PCG: "Oh, it'd just be rude to shoot him!"
Dugas: "Please! Complete what you're doing!" [laughs]
PCG: Can you just punch through any wall?
Dugas: No, if you observe carefully, all those big strong walls, some of them have weaknesses. It's not like Red Faction or something like that. They have weaknesses and if you observe carefully, you might detect them. But you're going to have an augmentation that is going to give you more information, what we call the Environmental Sensor. It's going to bring up your awareness of your surroundings and the possibilities, so you're going to see where there are weaknesses and you can take advantage of it.
Basically today, it was like, there was an enemy on the other side, so the demo combines it with Smart Vision that allows you to see through walls. But if an enemy was not there, you could still destroy the wall. It's not related to the enemy. If there's an enemy there, he's going to take advantage of the situation, but those two things are not necessarily related.
PCG: What do you think Invisible War did wrong?
Dugas: That's a good question, because when we started the project we went back to the first games to look at what was good and what was not good, and in terms of like, multi-path, multi-solution, things like that, Invisible War was quite consistent, probably more than the first game. Because the latter quarter of the first game, and maybe before that, started to become a very straightforward shooter with not as many possibilities as in the first few maps.
So in that respect, I think [Invisible War] was a good game and actually was fun to play. But I think one of the things that didn't help was that in the beginning of the game, you're this Alex Denton, you don't know who you are, what is your background, what are you doing in this world. And all those characters talking at you all the time, they all want something, and it takes hours before it starts to kick in. I think maybe it was too hard to absorb and immerse in that world because it took so many hours.
Also I think that the setting was very far in the future, was more futuristic and less grounded a reality that we can relate to, and those are all aspects of it that made it harder to get into. I'm not talking about, like, universal ammo and those things, I think that's another debate, but more on the broader appeal, I think it's the setting and how you perceive it. In the first Deus Ex you're just the super soldier out of this first nanotechnology project that is successful, and you work for UNATCO, a branch of the UN, and you're this super agent and you have this identity already clear in your head wherever you go. It's near future and you see, like, the statue of liberty, like the head is on the ground - "Oh my God, something happened!" There's something strong that you can relate to that I think Invisible War lacked in the first place.
PCG: Does Deus Ex 3 have an equivalent?
Dugas: Uh, you mean in terms of...?
PCG: In terms of giving the player a compelling fantasy from the first moment, making sure he knows what he's doing?
Dugas: I think we're really closer to Deus Ex 1 in the sense that you know who you are. You don't necessarily know everything about your past, but you know who you are, who you work for, what are the factions that employ you, what is the debate. We wanted to create a stronger character, someone you can relate to. I think a choice that is removed from you, and which you need to cope with, is something that we all have at some point experienced. For us, it was really important to put the players in a world where what's happening, and the dangers, have some sort of analogy to the real world so it's easier to get into.
PCG: Something else we complained about in Invisible War was that the levels were a little too small. I know the levels we saw today had open areas where you can go wherever you like, but do you have anything on the same scale of Liberty Island from Deus Ex 1?
Dugas: Actually we have... it's a mix of both. We have maps that are more compounds, that feel more like Area 51, it's slightly open outside but you go inside in the facility and there are secret areas. There's multi-path but you're in corridors and rooms and things like that. But also we have big cities, like Detroit and Shanghai. What you've seen today was just two corners of a street. The city of that map is really bigger than what you've seen today. Today was just a small part for the purpose of the demo. And yes, you're going to be able to explore every corner of those cities.
Also, we try to when it makes sense to broaden the flexibility of the objectives. For instance in Detroit, without revealing too much of the missions, you have Objective A, when it's done you do Objective B, when it's done you do Objective C. But when you start with Objective A, if you decide, "Okay, I could go and do it, but I want to explore in that direction." You can go explore that direction. And at some point you see a terminal or something and you can hack it, you can shut it down. And one of your guys says,
"Hey Jensen, what did you just do?"
"I don't know, there was this switch and it just... what did I do?"
"I'll come back to you later."
Your character, and you yourself as a player, don't know what you just did, but the game acknowledges it, and as you complete the objectives what you discover is that was [Objective C]. And basically, since you already did it, then your mission is done. You can go to extraction point and just leave, or go wherever you want to go.
So we're trying to keep the game as flexible as possible when it makes sense for those things. If you explore and you discover some items, "I don't know what I'm going to do with it", but then at some point you meet characters that, for them, it's important. And if you already have it, your character will be allowed to choose, "I think I already have what you needed." So even though the story is linear, as you play, what you do is going to be flexible enough to accommodate other play styles.
PCG: I know you guys said that the stealth is based on cover rather than light and dark, but does that mean that light and dark don't play any role in detection?
Dugas: Basically our system is based on the breaking of line of sight, and making no noises, because in our game we have some environments that are quite light. Some are darker, but some are brightly lit. Because of the context you go there in, it wouldn't make sense to put it in shadows and everything. Basically we needed to build a stealth system that would work everywhere, not just in some maps. That's why we decided to go on breaking the line of sight and managing the sound produced around you.
PCG: My problem with cover systems is that inevitably there's a point where my guy just suddenly lurches towards something that I didn't want to stick him to. How do you combat stuff like that?
Dugas: I don't know if you played Rainbow Six: Vegas, if it felt right to you or not?
PCG: I did, but I can't remember quite what my opinion of it was...
Dugas: [laughs] If you felt it was right then you're going to think our game is going to feel right. But if you thought it was not right then you're going to think it's not right.
PCG: I'll go and play it.
Dugas: Basically, if you don't hold the trigger, you're never going to take cover. So there's no way to be confused and to enter cover when you don't want, or get out of cover when you don't want to. A lot of games it feels a bit like that. I was playing Mass Effect 2, I finished it a month ago or something, at some point I was in the heat of a battle and discovering, "Oh my God, I've left cover, and he won't go back!" What we do is that you need to pull and hold the left trigger in place, and when you release it you are out of cover. You just need to be close to where you want to take cover, just press it in. It should be simple. If you go back and play Rainbow Six: Vegas, you should feel right at home.
Update: I actually did exactly this when I got back to the UK, and fell back in love with the Vegas games. The cover system is great, perhaps the only great one I've tried, and it's both useful and intuitive. Being in first-person and precisely controlling your view means that it's almost impossible to stick to something you didn't mean to. And being in third-person once you are in cover lets you stop and plan how you're going to deal with the enemies you see around the corner. We're talking about it over in the forums, come and join us if you have an opinion.
Yesterday in Deus Ex week I gave you my blow-by-blow account of everything I saw of Deus Ex: Human Revolution in action. Since we've been talking a lot about whether it can capture what makes Deus Ex great, tomorrow we'll be returning to the first game to explore why it does work, and recount a particularly ridiculous play-through of the classic Liberty Island level.

Trouble with matrix reports in dashboards
For the most part when loaded into the dashboard, the report does not display any data, or sometimes it will load the chart but subtotal all the columns and just give me one value for each row. I need to be able to display multiple columns.
What is the easiest way to do this? Am I potentially loading the report into the dashboard incorrectly? Thanks.
Also, which browser are you using?
A few things to check off the bat are the Dashboard Running User, and the location of the Reports that are being used by the Dashboard, and the Running Users access to those Reports.
heres how the report looks. For each of the 'Activity Types' I'd like to see the totals for each of the previous four months, as it is displaying here. When I Import it into a dashboard it displays like this:
I want to be able to see each the subtotal from each month on the dashboard, not just the total record count for all the months together. When I import the report into the dashboard these are setting I'm using:
Link: My post with the code. (code from Ron Hess)
I had the same problem.
1) When you go to dashboard it requires you to ensure a chart has been created in the source report to enable selection of columns (up to 4)
2) Can you matrix report create charts at the source level?, if so, create the report first with the chart. Then relink your dashboard to that report and try again.
3) I changed my report structure from tabular to summary just so I could create a chart at the source level, and open options to select more than 2 columns on the dashboard.
Thank you
I know someone suggested to check the box to add the chart from the source report, however, there is no way to add a matrix chart to the report itself to begin with. The options are the bar graphs, line graphs, Pie/doughnut/funnel and scatter charts. Sometimes there is an option to add just a regular chart but it does not allow you to add the summary data. It just lists data linearly and that isn't what we need to present.
Are you looking for something like this?
This is the dashboard chart that I was able to add to the dashboard:
Thanks for the screenshots. So are you trying to get the DB Table to look "exactly" like the Matrix Report? I'm afraid that's not possible. The best that you can do in a DB Table is 4 columns, and 2 of them have to be numeric values. It still might be possilble to take your 1 report and break it into 2 or 3 DB Tables or Charts that will give the user the full picture. Let me know if that would work for you if you want me to start plugging away at it.

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

re: unicode possibilities
I have to think about it.
The use of English as the standard language is prefered so that the information is useable by most lispers.
I don't mind some other language content though.

So... what's everyone doing to get in their exercise and earn their APs?
I didn't start doing much exercise until the end of December. Before that I was doing some treadmill walking, but not much really. I've got an old treadmill in the basement, so getting that in is not too hard when I've got the motivation.
Since December I've joined a cheapo gym, it's about $15 a month, which I think is pretty good. It's not a luxury gym (no showers, pools, tennis courts, or anything like that) but they've got nice workout equipement and the price is right.
I try to get to the gym 3x a week to do about 25 minutes of cardio and 45-50 minutes of weights. I work upper body one day (arms, back, and shoulders) and lower body the next.
My husband got me a heart rate monitor for Valentine's day and I'm finding that to be a good motivator. If I get started I'll usually keep with it until I burn a certain number of calories. Like if I get to 200 calories I'll try to push it to 250, or 300 just to get the APs. LOL!
Anyway, what's everyone else doing to get the APs in? What are your favorite exercises? Do you have any weekly goals or are you training for a run, anything like that?

Dear Mr. Behrens:
Thank you for your inquiry regarding the information required on Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs). While the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for the content and interpretation of the Hazard Communication Standard, we do not act as a repository for MSDSs, nor do we approve MSDSs produced by manufacturers. Therefore, OSHA is not in a position to provide you with an MSDS for di-octyl phthalate for comparison purposes. We have enclosed, however, a blank MSDS which was published by OSHA and may be used as a template to help your company organize the MSDS information.
Also, enclosed is a copy of the Hazard Communication Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1200. The text of the standard begins on page 6170. Please allow me to point out that the importer of your product in the United States has responsibilities outlined in the standard and should be a source of assistance to you in this regard.
I hope that this information is helpful. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have further questions.

Dear Sirs/To Whom It May Concern:
I work for a chemical company in Poland which produces di-octyl phthalate, a commonly used plasticizer.
We export this chemical to manufacturers in Western Europe and North America. In order to transport this chemical, my firm must a provide a MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET in English. To do so, I have translated this information from Polish to English, using a Polish Material Safety Data Sheet as the basis of my information (see copy attached).
I have written this data sheet to conform to the specifications provided to us by our clients in Western Europe. Because European material safety regulations differ from those in force in America, I would like to obtain a copy of your material safety data sheet in order to compare it to the European specifications which I use now, and to determine if I need to write another Material Safety Data Sheet to meet American requirements.
If there is any fee I must pay for a copy of the material safety data sheet promulgated by your agency, please let me know. If it would help, I am attaching a return address label for your convenience.
For your reference, the CAS number for Di-octyl phthalate, (di-2-ethyl phthalate, octyl ortho-phthalate ester) is CAS # 117-81-7.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Best regards,
Bernard Behrens

Can I throw my money at your patreon. no? only bitcoin works? okay....... T^T
Most people are reminded of Virgil, but I am getting a more Nightmare from Soul Caliber 2 vibe from this guy. By the way he looks super classy.
Nice! very persona 3!
Wow, this is all my favorite things mixed together. Amazing artwork.
Warframe meets Devil May Cry. Awesome.
Insanely love this design.
I say this a lot, but I want this in Warframe,
I say this a lot, but I want this in Warframe,
really nice
Hm.. Calling him Oni, wouldn't it have been more fitting to give him horns? or at least a kanabo style weapon to fit the mythology? Dont get me wrong, it's super awesome, but he kinda looks half infested more than anything really 'demonic' so to speak? Great art nonetheless, glad I came across this.
I wish this was in the game
Looks game worthy good job!
This is amazing! Fantastic design all around, and the sword is freaking awesome.
the art style seems to fit Warframe too Great Job!
I'd play using this armor
could say...it's a warframe that has power over antimatter and infested spores?
dude...this needs to be a warframe NOW
Oh ho! I love it ! Give him some powers, put in his stats, and you have yourself a badass warframe!
Always loved the armor design in Warframe.
Saw this on the stream today. The pros couldn't have done it any better. Great job!
oh my~~! that is so badass!
An awesome design with a fascinating and really cool contrast!
That is a really neat Character.
reminds me of vergil from devil may cry
That's pretty dope!
You took Vergil from the good Devil May Cry games and made him into a robot. That is easily the best idea for any action game I've ever seen.
Saryn's big brother! I can not approve of this enough
oh-ho!! XD Very nice! I saw this earlier and was impressed. I should tell you, my friend and I are the co-authors of the first Warframe/Mass effect crossover to hit FF.net. It's not the most awesome piece of literature every, but we try our best. I should tell you that many ideas for tech and such come from you. You are a great inspiration!

British female jihadists are running 'brothels' where thousands of Iraqi women are being forced to work after being captured by Islamic State militants, it has been reported.
Shocking new details have emerged after it was revealed young British girls are behind an ultra-religious all female militia in Raqqa that is brutally punishing "un-Islamic behaviour" in the area, according to the Sunday Telegraph.
Sources now claim that the women, who travelled from the UK to marry militant fighters, have set up brothels for the IS fighters to use.
The terrorist group, formally known as ISIS, are killing and enslaving members of Iraq's ancient religious minorities, including Assyrian Christians and the Yazidis.
One teenager taken captive by IS has described being forced into sexual slavery by the Islamist terrorists along with 40 other women, some as young as 12.
The 17-year-old Yazidi, who is still in captivity, said her torturers were "people without a heart" who "do not even spare the women with small children".
She claimed the women in her group of captives – all Yazidis – were being sexually abused on a daily basis, while being held in a building with barred windows and guarded by armed men.
Read the rest here.
The ISIS jihadis are following the Koran and the example of Mohammed. These despicable acts are pure Islam. What is new here is the female jihadis running the brothels. How despicable!

Georg Kell and John Ruggie
The international economic order constructed by the West after World War II reflected a highly advantageous configuration of factors that produced a generation of sustained economic expansion. The world distribution of economic power favoured an open and non-discriminatory approach to organizing international economic relations. There was broad ideological consensus regarding the role of the state in ensuring domestic employment, price stability and social safety nets. A commensurate body of economic analysis and policy prescriptions existed that enabled the state to act on these preferences. The major corporate actors were national in scope and international economic relations largely comprised arms-length transactions among separate and distinct national economies. As a result, point-of-entry barriers to economic transactions constituted meaningful tools of economic policy. The prevailing form of nationalism was the civic not ethnic kind, which facilitated international economic cooperation and, in the case of western Europe, the process of supranational integration. A set of international organizations was put in place that expressed and supported the post-war compromise of embedded liberalism, as it has been called (Ruggie 1982), most importantly the Bretton Woods institutions, the GATT and the United Nations.
Much has changed in the past half century to erode the efficacy of this set of understandings and arrangements. However, no factor has been as consequential as the expanding and intensifying process of globalization (Ruggie 1996). At bottom, globalization has increasingly disconnected one single element - networks of production and finance - from what had been an overall system of institutional relations, and sent it off on its own spatial and temporal trajectory. This has produced two disequilibria in the world political economy, which will persist unless and until the strictly economic sphere is embedded once more in broader frameworks of shared values and institutionalized practices.
The first is between the strictly economic sphere, and the broader frameworks of shared values and practices within which the economic sphere has been embedded at the national level. The second imbalance is in international governance structures. There has been a significant expansion of global

NBC News recently reported that this year there is not a "hot" holiday toy, but a "hot" holiday topic…gender rolls. "We need to teach our children they can do anything", said one mother, Swedish Toys R Us offers a "gender-neutral" catalog, and a 13 year old New Jersey girl challenged Hasbro by starting a petition for boy-friendly Easy-Bake ovens. Is a change coming?
Since I created the Go! Go! Sports Girl dolls almost six years ago, after being inspired by the "sexy" dolls marketed to girls, I have met many people creating and forcing a positive change with new ideas, articles, blogs, books, documentaries, online stores, and more…and it seems to be growing at a rapid pace.
Yesterday, Nancy Gruver with New Moon Girls created a petition asking Target to stop segregating their toy aisles. The signature goal was reached within hours. Debbie Sterling recently created Goldie Blox, engineering toys for girls. Ines Almida created Toward the Stars, and Carolyn Danchaert created A Mighty Girl, online stores offering empowering gifts for smart, confident, and courageous girls. With these amazing ideas, the release of the powerful documentary, Half the Sky, and the strong voices of Jennifer Siebel Newsom, Peggy Orenstein, Amy Jussel, Melissa Wardy, and Dr. Robyn Silverman and others, a change will be made. Go! Go! making a difference girls!
Consumers, parents, women, girls, etc., are saying enough is enough. It is time for a change and that time is now! There's a storm blowing up – a whopper, and I plan on standing in the middle and enjoying every moment. Together we can and will make a difference.
As always, Dream Big and Go For It!

About the Book
Al Rosen was doing just fine, hiding out in Israel -- until he decided to play Good Samaritan and rescue some elderly tourists from a hotel fire. Now his picture's been carried in the stateside press, and the guys he's been hiding from know exactly where he is. And they're coming to get him -- crooked lawyers, men with guns and money, and assorted members of the Detroit mob who are harboring a serious grudge. Playtime in paradise is officially over; Rosen's a million miles from home with a bull's eye on his back. And his only ally is a U.S. Embassy marine who's been looking for a war . . . and who's damn well found one.

Questioner: Why do people give to charity?
Dadashri: One gives because he wants something in return. A person gives happiness in order to receive happiness in return. People do not give for the purpose of liberation. When you give happiness to others, you will receive happiness. Whatever you give, you will get back. That is the rule. We receive by giving to others and we lose by taking away from others.
Questioner: When there is no connection between charity and the Soul, is it then necessary to give charity?
Dadashri: Charity means to give and then receive. This world is in the form of an echo. There will be echoes of whatever you do and it will return to you with interest. Therefore if you give, you will receive. In this life you are reaping the benefits of whatever you gave towards a good cause in your past life. If you do not do the same in this life, it will all be wasted. What happens if you use up all the wheat you harvest and do not sow anymore?
That is precisely how everything is. Give to charity. It will create an echo, which will return to you amplified. It is because you gave in your past life, that you are able to come to America, to a better life. Otherwise do you think it is easy to come to America? It is because you have a lot of merit karmas that you are even able to fly in a plane. There are a lot of people who have never even seen a plane!
Glossary:Karma: The cycle of cause and effect life after life; To support the action with the belief 'I am the doer' is called binding the karma.

What Your Favourite Star Wars Movie Says About You
1. Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977)
The Movie: Do I even have to tell you? If you haven't seen the movie in 30 years – hell, if you haven't ever seen it, period – it doesn't matter. You know the story of A New Hope, because it is the story: an average nobody has a great destiny thrust upon them, and with the help of a wizard, a few friends, and his own hidden inner strength, the hero defeats the dark overlord, saves the kingdom, and rescues the princess.
Lucas took Joseph Campbell's idea of the monomyth, and used it like a mad libs outline, plunking archetypes and story points into place like he was setting up a game of Monopoly… which is probably where the inspiration for Monopoly: Star Wars came from, actually. The only risky flourish Lucas adds is in having the gall to make the one normal sounding name in the series a loose copy of his own. Doesn't matter how blatantly simple it all is, because it worked like gangbusters (460 million 1977 dollars worth of gangbusters). A New Hope is entertainment at its absolute essence: raw, uncut, Bolivian-grade storytelling, just with cooler special effects.
What It Says About You: Your favourite element of the franchise is the universe itself, and A New Hope captures all the parts that matter: the rebels, the Empire, the Force, lightsabers, the Death Star – everything important to the galaxy far, far away is right here. You get teary-eyed every time Luke looks out at the setting Tatooine suns, and cheer when Han shows up to save the day during the rebel assault.
A New Hope reminds you of when Star Wars was an exciting new galaxy full of adventure, just waiting to be explored, a time before Jedi religious philosophy, trade negotiations, and merchandise sales outweighing the sanctity of the story. Watching the Special Editions is like seeing The Mona Lisa through an Instagram filter. Altering perfection is an affront to art itself, and A New Hope belongs in a museum (incidentally, you think Raiders of the Lost Ark is the only Indiana Jones movie that matters).
Favourite Star Wars Accessories: None. A New Hope is fine scotch: best enjoyed straight, by itself, and not watered-down.
Soundbite: "Han shot first!"
Favourite Movies: The Matrix, Back to the Future

I need a medium to full coverage foundation recently due to my monthly breakouts and stress. But I don't want to spend over $40 for a liquid foundation for occassional use. Therefore, after research on makeupalley.com, I come up with the idea to try this product and it is only $7 Canadian on sales, doesn't hurt to give it a try. I end up loving tis foundation for varies reasons. 1. the foundation is in a tube which means I can use up every single bit of the product with no wastage and the package makes travel friendly too. 2. Color matching is perfect. I am NC 25 and I 've bought True Ivory, the second lightest shade. I may want to try one shade darker in the Summer time and all shades look realistic to me 3. It is hydrating but also long lasting. Since hydrating foundation has more slip than regular long last foundation, it usually run even with primer and powder, consider my skin is combination and extremely oily on my nose, just my nose area. But this foundation is truly long lasting but not drying at all 4. It covers really really really well, perfect my skin but still looks dimensional and natural. 5. Inexpensive, way cheaper than regular drug store foundation and excedding department store's quality. However, I only recommend this foundation thowho have normal to dry to dry skin typed. As I have mentioned before, it is hydrating and I need to use powder to keep the foundation in place. However with powder on top, it foundation really gives a long lasting finish that up to ten plus hours with one blotting. I think it is worthy to try.
Edit: it is still good for occassional use whenever I need a full coverage foundation. However, it is quite sticky and I don't think it could be a HG for everyday use, unless for those who need full coverage everyday and dry skin.
Edit: too think

*This product has very high reviews from those in my age group, and for good reason!
After 10+ years of powder and mineral foundations I had a yearning to try a liquid foundation with a brush application. I use Alima mineral foundation (Olive 1) in the scorching hot summers here in GA and discovered BE (Fairly Light) last year for winter (its finish worked well on me in the cooler months). But I thought - hmm, foundations have changed so much, maybe one will work for me and my older complexion needs. I read and heard many raves about this Rimmel foundation on MUA and also from BeautyBroadcast/EmilyNoel83, but WOW the packaging makes the shades look soooooo dark! I don't know how many times I went out to buy this for the first time but changed my mind again and again after looking at the shades. Ultimately I held the different shades/tubes in the sunlight thru the store window and chose #103 True Nude, and it's a perfect match for my light olive skin - no pink or orange tones at all. I also bought an Ecotools foundation brush and began my new journey! Okay now.....I'm in love. The coverage is fabulous! Smoothing it on my face with the brush and watching the surface of my skin change and improve is a lovely experience, not unlike applying mmu but one uses slower, even strokes with this foundation. I have found that I don't need a primer with this due to its dimethicone ingredients, but I do use my ELF Mineral e/s primer under my eyes. I can use undereye concealer before or after foundation; if I apply foundation first, I apply it under my eyes with the brush, then pat in - this foundation makes a huge difference alone on my dark circles! I then use CS's Eye Brightener over that or simply brush a bit of mineral concealer over the foundation - perfect. If I find that I need extra coverage on a blemish or a scar, I dab a bit more foundation on where it's needed with a tiny brush....let it dry for a couple seconds, then pat to blend. My skin looks beautiful. I'm setting this with either my CS HD loose powder or EDM's Sunlight Finishing Powder, which I'm trying. I've used my fingers to apply this foundation but I much prefer the brush application; I feel that I'm using less product this way. Mind you, it's cold here right now, but I don't find oily breakthrough a problem. I can't imagine this lasting in the summer here; it's so hot at work sometimes and my face perspires so. Still what a pleasure it is to use now - I'm really loving it. No problems with creasing or patchiness on my skin or over my skin's 54 yr. old texture (yeah, that's what I'm calling it); it looks perfect all day long and feels smooth to the touch. Regarding the dark-looking tubes: Buy it at Walgreens or Ulta (as I did) so you can exchange the shade if you need to. And compare the TONE of the tubes' shades - cool, warm, neutral - in some natural light at the store's window. As I said, I'm quite light and #103 is perfect. I can't rave enough about this product or the great experience I'm having using it! Oh and....it's so inexpensive! xoxoxo

This is my HG foundation!! I would say it has medium coverage, but it is buildable to become heavier. It covers all my blemishes, acne spots, and redness. I have very oily skin, and this foundation kept my face shine-free the entire day (7am - 7pm). I'm sure it lasts longer, but I haven't had an occasion where I would be wearing makeup so long yet. It doesn't feel like you're wearing a mask, looks very natural and flawless, and it is EXTREMELY blendable! And the squeeze tube makes it easy to control how much product you get. The only bad thing I have to say is that the color selection is very poor. There aren't many shades available for darker skinned ladies as well as paler ladies. The 100 seemed darker than the 103, which was odd. But overall, I would HIGHLY reccommend this foundation to anyone!!

This is what I wanted Revlon Colorstay to be. Between the two foundations, I'd pick this one every time. First of all, Lasting Finish applies like a dream. It is "wetter" and does not dry quickly, so you do not feel like you're in a mad frenzy to apply this like you do with Colorstay. It glides nicely onto the skin. Another plus is that the coverage is awesome. This covers pretty much everything.
The finish is NOT matte. It's dewy, which I prefer since I think it looks way more natural. I do have to blot maybe once or twice during the day, and it doesn't last like Colorstay does. The trade off is that it looks more natural and it's easy to get off at night. However, it still holds up 10 to 12 hours for me, which is still great.
I like the plastic squeeze tube packaging since it's easy to get the product out, and I don't have to worry about dropping this and breaking it. I'm about an NC37, and the color Sand is pretty much a perfect match for my skin. The color selection is tiny, but there are more colors depending on where you buy this. At Target, where I bought this, not all the shades are available. However, I believe Ulta has a larger color selection and a few darker colors. It still doesn't have enough colors for darker ladies. One piece of advice: The color in the tube looks different when you try it on. I know this is gross, but you might have to open the tube and squeeze a little drop out to get an idea of what the shade truly looks like.
In my area, this goes for about $7 and some change. Very affordable. Will definitely buy again.

Color selection -- not the best, but passable. I have NC 25 skin and wear this in Soft Beige, which is slightly more pink than what is ideal. But I fix that by bronzing up my skin a bit.
Lasting power -- very good. I once had it on from 8am to 7pm. It was still in tact and kept my pores covered and my skin tone even. The only con would be that it did make me kind of shiny. So this is good for people with dry skin (me) but you'll have to powder half way through the day.
Didn't break me out. Actually smells kind of nice. I recommend it.

I wear this in 200! This foundation is absolutely amazing. I never, & I mean NEVER, write reviews on things, but I had to with this product. I am beyond picky with my makeup - i like that very natural, dewy glow and have a hard time finding it. This foundation had all of that, plus lasted all day & was a perfect color match to my skin - I have slightly tan skin with yellow undertones. It goes on so smooth & looks flawless when you're finished. My skin tends to be on the very dry side, but fortunately I rarely break out & don't have any fine lines or wrinkles yet, however, it keeps my dry skin hydrated all day and doesn't sink in at all, & when i do have those occasional zits, it covers them up perfectly. My mom, who has a few fine lines, swears by it as well! seriously, you NEED to try this product. Once you do, you will never use anything else. & it's so affordable!!! I will use this as long as they keep it on the market and don't change anything about it. it's awesome!!!!!

-It has medium to heavy coverage. It is extremely buildable and you would love the natural finish. I've been getting compliments from everyone who said it looked like it was my skin, only better. Trust me when I say my skin is nowhere near that. I'm using the True Ivory and I have an acne-prone, combination skin with a yellow undertone.
-It feels so lightweight. You don't feel like you have make up on.
-It's dirt cheap. I spent roughly $7 for this product from Rite-Aid.
-It's long lasting but not as long as it claims. Probably just 10 to 12 hours.
-This is better than Revlon Colorstay.
-No SPF! Yeay! I never liked make-up with SPF since I wear a separate SPF and it makes my face ghostly for flash photography.
-The container just spurts out contents and it's hard to control.

I've only used this once, but so far I don't see what all the hype is about. The color was weird. At first it looked a bit too dark so I set it with a lighter setting powder, and now I look like a ghost. Didn't apply as smoothly as I'd hoped either and came off when I had to brush off some eyeshadow fallout. The tube isn't exactly stellar either because, at least at first, the foundation comes spewing out. The price is right but no SPF. I'll use it more but so far, not that impressed. UPDATE: Towards the end of the day (testing how long this "25 hour" foundation lasts, I'm still just not that impressed with this. Of course, I will try a couple more times, but so far I like Revlon ColorStay, Maybelline SuperStay and even L'Oreal Infallible better. UPDATE: STILL just not that impressed with this. Drying and does not last. UPDATE: Officially hate this. Highlights and cakes on my dry patches, doesn't allow for touch ups because it cakes, and feels incredibly drying.

This foundation is awesome. Coverage is great, lasts, for the price it's worth it. Are there better lastin foundations? Yes but not for this price. If you're looking for a great lasting foundation for under $6, then this is the product for you
