Hi, I am using C++ and trying to make my player shoot projectiles. I have done OK so far, but the problem is that what I have done to move them is just use:
bulletX += xOffset( betwen player and mouse ) /100
bulletY += yOffset / 100
This gave me the right direction although there was an issue, the closer the mouse was to the player, the slower the bullet went ( as you can probably tell from the code above ). I have tried:
Dlen = sqrt(Dx*Dx + Dy*Dy)
*Dlen = normalised value, Dx = xOffset, Dy = yOffset, Bx= bulletX, By= bulletY, Bs = bullet Speed.
but I was unsuccesful.... the bullet went in completely random directions very different to where I was aiming.
I also tried to find a ratio :
yOffset / xOffset and then always move X by 1 or -1 and y by 1 or -1 multiplied by the ratio.
Again unscuccesful.
Is there any way to achieve a constant speed when shooting projectiles from a player in the direction of the mouse cursor that will work? Please put an explained example.

- "I try to block walks of shame from my memory."
- ―Talbot Daniels
Talbot Daniels is a man who helped Niko and Roman Bellic find Florian Cravic's apartment. Roman plays cards with him on occasion. Talbot can be seen on pictures and artworks near Star Junction. His appearance varies, as sometimes he wears a jacket and sometimes a sweater vest; the vest itself has red and blue variants. His nervousness in giving up Florian, especially his nervousness in saying he "likes to be called Florian... at certain moments" (when he has sex), as well as the fact that Ray Boccino refers to him as a "fanook", a Mafia slang term for homosexual, could suggest that Talbot is homosexual. After they locate Florian's apartment, Niko tells him to run off.
Mission Appearances
- Weekend at Florian's (Can be killed)
- Unlike most of the other characters from the game, he doesn't have an entry in the LCPD database.
- Talbot can be killed before entering Florian's apartment, but Ray will scold Niko, mentioning that Talbot owed him money.
- Talbot mentions "I try to block walks of shame from my memory" and "I was high last time I went here" when he arrives at Florian's apartment, further suggesting that he had a relationship with Florian.

The six-county partnership focusing on regional economic development has a new name, a new executive director and a new website, but has the same focus: to bring new business, to maintain and expand current business and to develop the existing workforce for the counties along I-71.
FRANKFORT, Ky. – Kentucky's thriving automotive industry enjoyed a banner year in 2012, with annual production reaching more than one million vehicles for the first time since 2007, before the national economic downturn.
WASHINGTON, DC—The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Farm Service Agency reminds producers that the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 extended the authorization of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (the 2008 Farm Bill) for many Commodity Credit Corporation commodity, disaster, and conservation programs through 2013.

Kentucky is home to 242,400 horses and the total value of the state's equine and equine-related assets is estimated at $23.4 billion, according to the 2012 Kentucky Equine Survey.
WASHINGTON – Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) has signed on as an original co-sponsor of the REINS Act. This bill aims to curb unchecked and costly regulations.
"Overregulation stifles economic growth and hurts small businesses," said Rep. Massie. "It is vital that Congress act to overhaul our regulatory process."
American small businesses spend roughly $10,500 per employee due to federal regulations. This annual regulatory burden of $1.75 trillion leads to higher consumer prices, reduced wages, and fewer jobs.
The long-awaited replacement of the Hwy. 36 West bridge over Locust Creek will begin next month.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announced this week that crews will begin moving utilities in the area of the bridge Feb. 4 in preparation for the bridge closure March 1.
In a news release, KYTC officials said the contractor, Judy Construction of Cynthiana, Ky., plans to open the new bridge to traffic by June 1 and expects to complete the entire project by June 30, weather permitting.
The Kentucky State Police will be conducting traffic safety checkpoints in the counties of Oldham, Trimble, Henry, Owen, Carroll and Gallatin during the period of Jan. 28 – Feb. 11, 2013.
The intent of a traffic safety checkpoint is to provide for high visibility public safety service, focusing on vehicular equipment deficiencies, confirming appropriate registration of vehicles and the licensing of drivers. Violations of law or other public safety issues that arise shall be addressed in accordance with Kentucky traffic and regulatory laws.

Geographic Information
REGION: Mountain
RIVER BASIN: French Broad, Savannah
NEIGHBORING COUNTIES: Haywood, Henderson, Jackson

Transylvania County is located in the Mountain region of southwestern North Carolina along the South Carolina border. It was formed in 1861 from portions of Jackson and Henderson Counties. Its county seat, Brevard, was established in 1861 but not incorporated until 1889. Its other communities include Cedar Mountain, Cherryfield, Lake Toxaway, Little River, Penrose, Pisgah Forest, and Sapphire.
The forests and mountains of Transylvania County were home to the Cherokee Indians until federal legislation in 1830 forced the relocation of most North Carolina Cherokee to Oklahoma. English, Scotch-Irish, and Welsh settlers came to the region by way of Cherokee trading paths and river routes along the Davidson River and other tributaries in the French Broad River and Savannah River basins, but the county remained lightly populated through the early nineteenth century, home primarily to yeoman farmers. In the late nineteenth century, industrialist George Vanderbilt acquired large tracts of forest land in the county, and in 1895 he hired Carl A. Schenck to manage the lands for timber harvest and conservation. The lands today comprise portions of Pisgah National Forest, nearly 83,000 acres of which is located in Transylvania County. The Cradle of Forestry in America historic site in northern Transylvania County, on the site of the Biltmore Forest School founded by Schenck in 1898, commemorates the role of the school and the county in the development of modern forestry. The county remains an important producer of timber and timber products.
The growth of Brevard and the county generally increased beginning in 1895, when the Henderson & Brevard Railroad (later the Transylvania Railroad Company) came to town. The railroad brought increased commerce and tourism, which in turn sparked development of luxurious resort towns such as Lake Toxaway. A major human and ecological disaster struck, however, when the Lake Toxaway dam broke during a major flood that struck western North Carolina in 1916. The flood destroyed many small farming communities downstream, left Lake Toxaway dry, and led to the failure of the resort. Piles of timber debris from the 1916 flood can still be seen in the area today.
In 1934 Brevard College was founded on the campus of Epworth School, an important early institute for girls and young women in western North Carolina. The college in time earned a strong reputation for education in the arts and in the environmental sciences. Brevard's reputation as an artistic community was also enhanced by the Brevard Music Center, established in 1945 and home to one of the finest summer music festivals and master class programs in the country. By the early twenty-first century, Transylvania County was firmly established as a popular mountain destination for tourists drawn to the county's natural environment and recreational opportunities. The county is popularly billed as the "Land of Waterfalls" on account of its more than 250 falls, including Looking Glass Falls, Sliding Rock Falls, and Whitewater Falls, which, at some 411 feet, is considered the highest cascade east of the Rocky Mountains. Gorges State Park, near Sapphire, was established in 1999 on land purchased from Duke Energy Corporation. The estimated population of Transylvania County was 29,700 in 2004.

VA Hospital death prompts congressional investigation
House of Representatives committee opens investigation into death at Columbia facility
COLUMBIA, Mo. - A congressional investigation of the Truman Memorial Veterans' Hospital is underway after a 78-year-old man was beaten to death in 2013 at the facility.
In a letter dated Jan. 15 and addressed to the secretary of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Rep. Mike Coffman (R-Colo.) requested a copy of the incident report detailing how the facility responded to the assault and death of Robert Hill on Feb. 1, 2013.
Coffman, a native of Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., is the chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversights and Investigations for the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs.
According to authorities, Rudy Perez Jr. killed Hill at the hospital. Hill was a patient and Perez was there on a 96-hour involuntary commitment after an alleged assault on his father. Perez pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity and is at Fulton State Hospital.
The subcommittee has also requested information on any administrative actions against staff or VA officials in connection with the death.
"I am particularly concerned about reports that Mr. Perez first threatened to attack Mr. Hill, he then did attack Mr. Hill, the two were separated, and then Mr. Perez was returned to the same unit as Mr. Hill where the final attack occurred that cost Mr. Hill his life," Rep. Coffman wrote in the letter.
ABC 17 News reached out to Coffman's office, Truman VA Hospital administrators and Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler's office Wednesday.
A spokesman for the Truman VA Hospital in Columbia was not aware of the request for documents Wednesday afternoon, but deferred comment to the national office.
The office of Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler (R - 4) issued the following statement to ABC 17 News late Wednesday night:
"During her recent visit to the Truman VA Medical Center, Congresswoman Hartzler heard from administrators regarding the tragic events of last February and efforts to address security concerns. Like Congressman Coffman, she awaits General Shineseki's response."
There is no word on when the subcommittee will get those documents or when the investigation will be completed.

At Beaver Village Condominiums, just a few minutes' drive from the slopes of Winter Park Resort, you won't find extravagant antler chandeliers hanging from the ceilings. In classic Winter Park style, each unit is appointed with rustic mountain décor, with many condos featuring lodge-style furnishings and stone fireplaces. One-bedrooms are equipped with a king- or queen-size bed and a sleeper sofa, a full kitchen with utensils, and two TVs (one in the living room and one in the master bedroom). Two-bedroom condos come with the addition of an extra bedroom as well as another bathroom.
"Winter Park is Denver's backyard hill. In fact, Denver owns the ski area, which might explain why this family-friendly resort remains both unpretentious and affordable."-- The New York Times

Monitor57 has created this fantastic car mod for Myriad Islands (although it'll work fine in Vice City). By taking the Ferrari Enzo as a base and rounding it off, not forgetting adding his own unique texture style to it, he has developed a car which would turn heads if it were real. It's just over 100KB, so won't break your modem.

The early Christian monks of Egypt, Syria, and Palestine were the spiritual heroes of their age—fleeing the security of civilization for the desert, where they sought God in lives of prayer, contemplation, and radical simplicity. This book is a portable collection of their teachings, and those of their contemplative contemporaries, ranging from the fourth through the eleventh centuries. It is arranged to the traditional model of three ascending "books": Praktikos (practice), Theoretikos (theory), and Gnosis (knowledge). Each book consists of 100 "sentences"—aphorisms or thoughts. Each sentence is intended to be read and meditated upon for an entire day—just as the monks themselves might have done as they went about their work.
News & Reviews
"A rare and well-conceived foray into Christian mysticism. "—Publishers Weekly
"McGuckin has lit on the brilliant idea of rescuing the Desert Fathers' and Mothers' sayings in simple free-verse form, which emphasizes the compression and power of their wisdom. This book will make a welcome addition to the renewed interest in early Christian ascetics. "—Library Journal

Jonas Gahr Støre:
In defense of dialogue
In politics, it seems counterintuitive to engage in dialogue with violent groups, with radicals and terrorists, and with the states that support them. But Jonas Gahr Støre, the foreign minister of Norway, makes a compelling case for open discussion, even when our values diverge.

I won't argue with any choices made here... I enjoyed them all, and agree... especially with Jeepers Creepers.
But, as an 11 year old, I remember I was so scared from the very first color vampire film... "The Horror of Dracula", 1957, I went to bed with a rosary around my neck.
When the original B&W "Dracula" with Bela Lugosi was your only comparison, Christopher Lee as Dracula was scary ****. Hammer Film's color vampire movies in the late 50's, early 60's might have been tame by today's standards, but they were the best 50 years ago. The best since then, IMO... "30 Days of Night".
I also think "Aliens", the second, was excellent. It was better than Alien, IMO, because they only showed about 15 very dark seconds of the creature in that first one.

Part of the growing number of student groups on campus, fraternities and sororities can play a vibrant role in undergraduate student life.
The first University of Alberta fraternity was charted in 1930 and, today, there are 12 fraternities and six sororities on campus made up of more than 600 students. These 18 chapters are governed by one of two councils: the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Council. Fraternities and sororities are recognized as Student Groups by the University and Students' Union and are supported by local alumni advisors, their international headquarters, and a Fraternity and Sorority Advisor in the Office of the Dean of Students.
For more information on fraternities and sororities at the University of Alberta, please contact the Fraternity and Sorority Advisor at firstname.lastname@example.com or view more information about the fraternities and sororities at the U of A.
