1 Developing games using Java Presented at CS196 Brown University March 8, 2006 Brad Myers, President Galactic Village Games, LLC village.com Page 1
2 Who is Brad Myers? Brad s Brag Sheet Founder and president of Galactic Village Games, LLC Hard core gamer since age 14. Has been programming games on and off since Galactic Village (in progress) AD&D Pool of Radiance Sub Battle Simulator Orbiter Has been designing Java based systems since Page 2
3 Who is Galactic Village Games? The Company Founded in 1998 Core team of 3 people Some contractors for artwork and sound effects. Combined total of 25 years experience in games industry Combined total of 200? years in computing. Self funded Everybody has a day job Work mostly nights and weekends Page 3
4 Our Game: Galactic Village Galactic Village is a 3D online strategy game, were thousands of players participate in running the galaxy by balancing religion and science, warfare and diplomacy, exploration and commerce as they strive to expand their spheres of influence, keep their people happy, and conquer space. When you play Galactic Village you are an immortal demigod with the ability to interact with the "little people" of the galaxy. But you don't just move pieces around you get to participate in a vast interconnected society and to help it grow and prosper over time. Page 4
5 Our Game Design Goals Strategy first Pacing give players time to think Lots of different strategies, ways to compete and cooperate Different ways to succeed Large online world Persistent world with evolving content Huge scope: an entire galaxy, down to individual people! Complex game, simple view Needs to be challenging enough to last several years Needs to be simple enough to start playing immediately Game play should be 50% visual, 50% mental Page 5
6 Our Software Design Goals Modular systems Extensible architecture that can adapt to growth Model View Controller approach to software Lots of Data Design for 500K subscribers with units (1 billion units!) Lots of Parallelism Concurrent AI processing Simultaneous order processing from thousands of players Complex simulation and data visualization Economic, religious, geopolitical, and climate systems Spherical planets Page 6
7 Our tech vision 2, 5,15 yrs 2 years Speech input with much better recognition Better AI for planning and autonomous behavior Procedural dynamic terrain generation 5 years Totally cross platform (including game consoles) 3D stereo graphics and VR displays in the mainstream Personal AI tutors 15 years Fully immersive virtual reality Omnipresent wearable computer agents AI that passes Turing test Page 7
8 Systems Architecture Message Broker Message Queue Order Processor Message Broker Client Parallel Game Rule Engines Client Partitioned Game Database J D B C Client Autonomous Agents Age n t s Message Distributor Message Queue Mes s a ge Message Distributor Dis t r ib u t o r Copyright 2006 Galactic Village Games, LLC Results Summarizer Page 8
9 Where are games headed? (In my humble opinion) Fully immersive interactive movies Hollywood effects and stories Casual play anywhere toys Integrated cellphone, PDA, and GPS Experiential virtual communities Hybrid real life and virtual reality cross over Personal storytelling kits Intelligent life like autonomous agents who will act out your directions. Page 9
10 Game technology will be used in: Serious training games Military First responders Socio political simulations 3D visualization of complex data Financial systems Medical systems Climate systems Education Page 10
11 Languages for games C++ Java C Assembler Perl Python Pascal Basic <Insert your favorite language here...> Page 11
12 Why not use Java? Perceived as too slow for real games No existing commercial game engines yet Memory hungry Doesn t run on game consoles, yet Write once, test everywhere Page 12
13 Why use Java? Rich platform Single source code Lots of open source utilities High productivity (8 10x C++ ) Cross platform Standardized API Network friendly Cross platform 2D & 3D toolkits Page 13
14 What Java APIs are we using? Server JDBC JMS Client Java Swing Java 2D Java 3D Java Sound JDBC JMS Page 14
15 What other code is being used? Open source code / tools J3D.org Overlays Textures Geometries Milkshape Loader J3DTree JOrbis ExplicitLayout Databases Postgres HSQLDB Page 15
16 Commercial Tools SwiftMQ Genesis F/X particle system Milkshape 3D Studio Max Maya Poser Bryce 3D Adobe Photoshop Corel Draw OptimizeIt SimBionic Page 16
17 What GUI approach do we use? Prototype #1: Java 2D & Swing Quick development for proof of concept Prototype #2: 100% Java 3D Decided 3D was needed to meet player expectations Learning curve was short but steep Current: 50% Java3D & 50% Swing Combination of both approaches looks good and allows quick development Future: 80% Java3D 3D good for complex visualization, immersion 2D good for lists and simple visualization Page 17
18 Galactic Village screen shot Page 18
19 What's our network layer? Prototype #1: Standard packet stream Simple to develop, but doesn t scale well. Prototype #2: Pure JMS Easy pub/sub and peer to peer, communication Current: Custom serialization w/jms Better control over messaging Compression helps bandwidth usage Future: Encryption java.nio Possibly some movement info using UDP Page 19
20 How about the database? Data is everything Almost everything in GV is data driven (89 tables) Standard SQL statements and data types Server database must be industrial strength Fast and secure Must scale to handle thousands of simultaneous users Must be quickly recoverable Client database must be lightweight and cross platform Must be able to deploy and upgrade seamlessly Must be fast for queries Page 20
21 Our SDLC: Prototype and Refine Every aspect of the game design and game code has gone through several iterations Game Design Code More than 5 iterations on planet representation! 5 iterations on primary game rules and mechanics 4 iterations on GUI code 3 iterations on shortest path algorithms 3 iterations on AI design 2 iterations on order processing Java is great for prototyping! This is a work in progress refactoring never ends! Page 21
22 Was it a good experience for us? What went well Prototyping in Java is fast! Initial proof of concept took 2 3 months. Game design played to Java strengths Not an accident! Lots of OO design resulted in adaptable infrastructure What went less well Getting from proof of concept to current design. Several iterations of Java3D experimentation Java3D is very powerful but has a steep learning curve Sometimes design was too OO and didn't scale well Example: Paths worked fine for 400 tiles, blew up with 16,000. Page 22
23 Where did we innovate in tech? Persistence management All data objects know how to read/write themselves to database. Custom serialization 3D planets Wrote our own 3D tile based coordinate system Mouse and keyboard controls Swing components Customized GameFrame hierarchy Translucent 3D overlays Page 23
24 What would we do differently? Start smaller & grow Start with small, playable game Finish it and launch it. Grow based on player feedback. Target game #2 to be the "killer app" Get artwork and media specs decided early Choose only one area to innovate Page 24
25 Lessons learned Java3D and other APIs have a steep learning curve Design for the big picture but implement iteratively Frames per second is not a Holy Grail! Don't innovate everywhere Choose where to break new ground Avoid "million dollar" items Make innovations truly excellent Page 25

Skip to comments.Bill Would Increase Certain Social Security Payments
Posted on 06/18/2014 10:29:43 AM PDT by Rusty0604
Two U.S. Senators have introduced the Retirement and Income Security (RAISE) Act.
The bill would increase Social Security payments for divorced spouses, enhance benefits for widows and widowers, and extend eligibility for children of retired, disabled or deceased workers. The additional benefits included in the RAISE Act would be offset by the application of a 2% payroll tax rate on annual earnings over $400,000an offset that means Social Security will continue to be fully funded, according to a news release by Senator Mark Begich (D-Arkansas), who introduced the bill along with Senator Patty Murray (D-Washington).
The RAISE Act would ensure that our Social Security system reflects the realities of todays work force...
Specifically, the RAISE Act: Enhances benefits for divorced spouses. Under current law, the divorced spouse is only entitled to receive benefits under the former spouses earnings if she or he was married for 10 years. Beginning in 2016, the RAISE Act would allow those with less than 10 years of marriage to be eligible for benefits under the former spouses earnings
Enhances benefits for widows and widowers.
Extends benefit eligibility for children of retired, disabled or deceased workers. This provision of the RAISE Act applies if the child is in high school, college, or vocational school. Under current law, minor children younger than 18, ... Beginning in 2016, this provision extends benefits for full-time students until the age of 23 if they are a child of a retired, disabled or deceased worker.
Asks those who can most afford it to pay their fair share towards strengthening and shoring up the Social Security Trust Fund. Beginning in 2015, the RAISE Act would apply a 2% payroll tax rate on earnings greater than $400,000, with the threshold wage-indexed after 2015.

Just how long do you think it will be before they declare that they have to move that level down to $200K? Then $100K? Then $50K?
And they still won't have enough.
2% here, 2.5% there, pretty soon you're talking about real money.
Let's just cut through all the BS and tax people earning $400,000 or more at 100%. Stop the nonsense about asking the "well off" to pay "a little more" or "their fair share." That's not the goal. The goal is to take as much as possible from a political minority to hand out benefits to a large voting block.
Pulp Fiction:"Bring out the Gimp!"
Political Fiction: "Bring out the Gimmes!"
Must be an election year. Time for the Democrats to buy some votes with someone else's money.
Democrats can't do math. They can't do fractions and they don't understand percentages. They think that anything under 5 percent is microscopic. Two percent, three percent, etc. Two percent of 400K is eight thousand dollars.
The "rich" already had their medicare taxes increased to pay for (other people's) healthcare. Some states also impose extra taxes on "those that can afford to pay for it the most".
Noooooo! He needs to give up enough that he and his family don't live any higher than a HS dropout with 3 kids by 3 baby daddies who do not support them.
Is he up to his fair share yet?
Think these morons don't know what they are doing? They don't care because they figure they have theirs no matter what.
They won't get the picture until they have to worry about their own funds.
Sort of like Hillary,but they have put all their millions in a trust,their million dollar homes as well so they DONT HAVE TO PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE! But you are evil if you are middle class if you want to keep more of what you earn,what s bunch of stinking hypocrits
The FICA max IIRC is 103K. Are they going to collect the full %age amount from the >400K earners plus an additional 2%? That would make those people eligible for some pretty hefty SSS payments when they retire. I believe the SSS Act is pretty clear that the %age of the payroll tax is equal across the board up to the cutoff. It would seem they would have to rewrite the entire Act to pull this off. Now the idea of my obnoxious cousin having to pay so I can receive 75% of my late wife's benefit is attractive but it's unfair and just another attempt to redistribute income. If they want to be fair, my wife paid in 200K and collected 61K before she passed last year. Give me the difference. If it was in a TDA, Annuity, or 401K it would be my money.
And that HS dropout has absolutely no incentive to work towards a better career because if the more money she makes, the less "benefits" she receives.
"That would make those people eligible for some pretty hefty SSS payments when they retire."
Oh no, they are going to make SS "means tested" so those that put so much in won't get anything back. Even the conservatives are talking about that.
Stupid and destructive though it may be, raising FICA taxes on the EEEEEEVIL rich to hike benefits polls extremely well. Look for it to become a growing part of the Democrat playbook. And for it to actually happen at some point.
You hit it perfectly.
And of course the regimes's oligarch friends don't have much in the way of WAGE income, so they will be unaffected.
I can see this being a big thrust for the 2016 POTUS campaign.

Straight out of the pool, Killian James has a throbbing erection sticking out several inches over the waistband of his trunks. It catches the attention of Addison Graham, who's watching from the window. When they make eye contact, Killian give his cock a few squeezes to make sure Addison knows the attraction is mutual. Smooth and tan muscle-hunk Addison bats his blue eyes, smiles, reveals a glimpse of his own hard-on and reels Killian in. They connect first at the lips, and Addison reaches for Killian's exposed cock, freeing it from the confines of its swimsuit, and sucks it. They kiss and cuddle on the bed, panting, taking turns sucking each other's hefty endowments. Killian fingers Addison's willing hole and sucks until he gets a mouthful of hot cum, which he lets drip down his chin and lips. Addison chomps on one of Killian's nipples while Killian jacks out his own thick release.

Oxidation Number Method of Balancing Redox Reactions
1)Neutral Solution
Sn^2+ + Fe^3+ ----> Fe^2+ + Sn^4+
Balanced equation
Sn^2+ + 2Fe^3+ ----> 2Fe^2+ + Sn^4+
2)Acidic Solution
Fe^2+ + Cr2O7^2- ---> Cr^3+ + Fe^3+
Balanced equation
14H^+ + 6Fe^2+ + Cr2O7^2- ---> 2Cr^3+ + 6Fe^3+ + 7H2O
3) Basic Solution
Mno4^- + SO3^2- ---> SO4^2- + MnO2
Balanced Equation
I can't figure out how to do this one.
First -
2MnO4 + 3So3^2- ---> 3SO4^2- + 2MnO2
Then I added H2O on one side to help balance the O's. Then I had to add an H+ to the reactants side to balance out the H's. Since it was a basic solution I had to add OH- to the answer side. But then I had to add it to the other one as well.
I have -
OH- + H- + 2MnO4 + 3So3^2- ---> 3SO4^2- + 2MnO2 + H2O + OH-
OH- + H- becomes H2O...the H's are unbalanced and I don't know how to keep them balanced while making sure it's basic.
4) Basic Solution
CH3OH + MnO4^- ---> MnO4^2- + CO3^2-
Balanced Equation
CH3OH + 6MnO4^- ---> 6MnO4^2- + CO3^2-
I don't know how to balance out the H's.
Also, can you please explain to me the half reaction method?
Can you do this question and explain what you did.
Hg + H3IO6^2- ---> Hg2O + IO3^-
Thanks so much for all the help!

Five Fights at Freddy's is a fighting game that serves as a spin-off to the Five Nights at Freddy's series. It was created by SilverCyberlink as a random thought. In this game, the animatronics battle it out in various places around the pizzeria to compete for the title of "Best Animatronic Fighter". Each animatronic's stats are graded from 1 to 5 in four areas, Attack, Defense, Speed and Stamina. Attack, Defense and Speed are obvious, but Stamina might not be obvious at first. Stamina is how long an animatronic can last on the arena before getting fatigued. When an animatronic is fatigued, they can't fight efficiently anymore. Each animatronic has both the basic attacks and their own exclusive moves.
Animatronics, Stats and Moves
Freddy Fazbear
Basic Information
Freddy Fazbear is the big and strong leader of the pizzeria. He is the default character in the game, and he is a good character to play as for a tough competition. He is a tall brown bear with blue eyes and a black bow tie, as well as a black top hat. He usually holds a microphone in his left hand.
- Attack - 4. Freddy has quite a few powerful attacks and is physically very strong. This helps in fighting.
- Defense - 4. Freddy can take attacks easily, and can also defend himself against opponent's moves well.

- Stamina - 4. Freddy can last for a long time fighting without fatiguing, and is usually full of energy.
Basic Moves
- Scream - Freddy screams loudly and disorients the opponent.
- Punch - Freddy punches the opponent.

The Yodotai Pantheon was formed by the ten sons and daughters of Caelus, the Sky, and Gaia, the Earth, worshipped by the Yodotai. [1]
Ten Gods Edit
The Yodotai did not worship the Sky and Earth, but the ten fallen Gods instead. They did not have name, because naming them could unleash their fury against the Yodotai Empire. They were called by the aspect of life or civilization that they represented. [2]
Known Yodotai Gods Edit
Besides the Deity of Fear, the Mighty and Merciless Sea, none of their gods have ever been alive in Ningen-do. [2]

There are dozens of reasons why one should get a US IP address through a VPN service. The internet of the current era is very restricted regardless of which region it is being used in. If you live outside USA, you are missing out on a lot of things that wouldn't only make your routine life fun but also help you give your family the online activities that would bring to them great entertainment. To be specific, we are listing down some of the top reasons why you need a US IP address:
To Unblock the Hottest American Channels
Some of the best TV shows are broadcasted by the US channels. Unfortunately, many of the US channels are not accessible outside the US, including CW TV, Amazon, AMC TV, Animal Planet, AOL Video, CNBC and many more. These channels bring to you hundreds of TV shows and other programs and some of them have the highest ratings among all the shows on the TV. When you will have a US IP address via a VPN or a proxy, you will get access to all these channels with complete ease.
To Watch American Sports
Some of the top sporting events are originated from the US and played in US as well. Sporting events such as NFL and MLB have an insane fan following not only in the US but in rest of the world as well. The misfortune for outside residents is that they don't get the access to streaming of these games from their countries. This where a US IP comes in to the picture and gives them unrestricted access to all their favorite games online.
To Play Online Games on US Servers
If you are a die-hard gaming fan, you must be an online gamer as well. The best (and also the worst) thing about online gaming is that you can connect to any server in the world and play games with their local players as well as international gamers. It is worst because various servers have geo-restrictions on them that don't allow outside gamers to connect to the server for online gaming. A US IP, however, lets gamers overcome just the problem. As soon as a user connects to a US IP address, they get unrestricted access to geo-blocked gaming servers!
To Become Anonymous and Secure
Changing your IP to one from the US is also a way to become anonymous and secure. When you go online with an IP that's not actually yours and came to you via a VPN, you become invisible to everyone who is trying to find you through your real IP. This also secures you from a number of targeted threats including hack and DDoS attacks. Thus, changing the IP with one from the US, or as a matter of fact, just about any country's, you become secure and anonymous!
So these are some of the reasons why you need a US IP. If you are willing to go online using a US IP each and every time you connect to the internet, you can opt for a dedicated US IP. This way you will not have to browse through countries and servers to pick and connect to a US server every time you turn your device or PC on. In a nutshell, changing the IP with a US one does wonders.

Apple's almost certainly going to have some surprises in store for us when it releases whatever it wants to release at its event planned for Wednesday, Sept. 12. One thing we know is that iOS 6, the next version of Apple's operating system for its mobile devices, will no longer come pre-installed with Google Maps. Apple will instead tie all directions and mapping to its own Maps application, and, man, it's going to be different.
How different? Gizmodo did the painstaking work of presenting side-by-side screenshots of specific locations. The one-line takeaway is that Apple's Maps look nicer, but Google's Maps have much, much more information on just about every level. And that's just from what you can see on an overhead level. When the Google Maps boss lists the things Google is doing with its colossal computers to improve mapping data, you're going to do something you thought impossible: feel sorry for Apple.
You really should read the whole BBC interview with Google Maps' Brian McClendon. But I know how it is on a Monday. So here's the short list of things you probably didn't know Google was doing to help people find things and map every inch of our world.
Google's computers are scanning the images taken by its car-mounted Street View cameras to read and identify "street signs, speed limits, addresses, business names, rights of way at road junctions and other information," and humans are double-checking those identifications. They're also generally giving Google its own map data to draw from, decreasing its reliance on third-party providers.
How much Street View data is there to run through? "Over 20 petabytes" of imagery, and more than five million miles of roads.
Drivers using Google's turn-by-turn Navigation system, or keeping Maps open while they drive, are indeed feeding back to Google. Not just speeds to determine traffic congestions, but street changes. Google will notice if cars are only heading one way down a road, and check to see if the road has become a one-way street since their last data grab.
All that data gathering in service of better accuracy and information is known as "Ground Truth." "Ground Truth 2.0" is likely to involve more wholesale generation of maps and navigation data, such as in India, where many roads and villages are unreliably mapped, if at all.
Google plans to continue adding public building interiors—things like train and subway stations, shopping malls, museums, and businesses—but has no intention of mapping home interiors, whether invited or not.
Apple's coming from a different direction, using satellite imagery and vector mathematics to determine some directional and overhead views. But for knowing exactly how to get to that office that's in a second floor walk-up above that vaguely named coffee shop, it looks like Google Maps is going to be tough to beat for the time being.

Eagles QB Donovan McNabb said Wednesday that he anticipates RB Brian Westbrook and fellow QB Michael Vick to be back with him in Philadelphia next season.
McNabb, in comments to NFL.com, said speculation that Westbrook (who missed eight games from the effects of two concussions this season) might retire is premature.
"He looks forward to getting back," McNabb said at Pro Bowl practice. "All the talk people are saying on retirement or whatever it may be, it's all false."
McNabb said he anticipates Vick returning. Eagles coach Andy Reid has already said he intends for McNabb to be the Eagles starter next season, though that hasn't stopped speculation that the team could trade McNabb.
The Eagles have yet to say if they will pick up Vick's contract option for next season. -- Sean Leahy
Nate Davis is a reporter, blogger and editor who's been at USA TODAY since 2000. He has covered the NFL since 2005. No, he did not play quarterback for Ball State. Davis' succession of our esteemed colleague Sean Leahy at The Huddle is considered a Brady-for-Bledsoe swap by most "insiders."More about Nate

People use few other body parts as frequently as their fingers. That's why soreness in hands and associated joints not only cause pain, but also frustration. Understanding the causes behind sore fingers and heeding some recommendations for easing that soreness can aid in a quicker recovery and bring you back to using those digits in no time.
Stretch those muscles. Whether your finger pain is associated with arthritis or strained muscles that come from working at a keyboard all day, movement is key. The Mayo Clinic recommends the following methods: Separate and straighten fingers until you feel a stretch, then, keeping hand in alignment with wrist, hold for 10 seconds. Next, bend end and middle knuckles of fingers, while keeping your hand and wrist in the same position. Hold for 10 seconds. Repeat for up to five reps on each hand.
Heat Remedies
Soothe joints with heat. Thermal agents can often lower pain in fingers and decrease muscle tightness. Possible heat remedies include hot packs, hot water bottles, or an electrical blanket or pad. Treatment temperature for hot packs should not exceed 131 degrees. For hot water bottles, fill about halfway with hot water between 115 and 125 degrees. Keep water bottle and/or electrical blanket on fingers until pain lessens. Water bottles and heating pads may need to be covered by a protective toweling so as not to burn the area.
Exercise entire body. According to a recent article by the Chicago Tribune, a common misconception is that relaxing is the cure for tender joints. Instead, physical activity and a healthy lifestyle have been proven to greatly reduce finger joint pain. A low-impact exercise like swimming, which does not put pressure on joints but raises blood flow to ligaments, muscles and tendons, is recommended. Also ask your doctor about undergoing physical therapy where your specific finger pain can be targeted.
Find the right medication. Some over-the-counter medications such as ibuprofen can reduce pain and inflammation. Dietary supplements including glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, may also slow the progression of cartilage loss. Cortisone shots are also an option in helping to reduce swelling and alleviate pain. Consult your physician to discuss which treatment might work best for you.

In this brief and invaluable account of human journey towards civilization, Salvatore Piccolo delivers a meticulously researched and passionately argued idea about our life in the Prehistory, and our ongoing quest to unravel its mysteries. James B. (Archaeologist)show moreby james
Great book, small just enough not to bore. The author has a great ability to synthesize, and with commendable expertise he address the archaeological topic clearly and in a few lines. Indeed, it is easy to understand, even for the beginners. Into a few pages is condensed all Sicilian Prehistory, with a wealth of data and explanatory notes that make it an "easy" scientific essay. Also in Sicily there are the dolmens and this book gives us the proof! I recommend it to anyone who loves this land of "myths" and its archeology. Patrickshow moreby Patrick
