how does it make sense that monthly funding is increased by 25% in africa. isnt africa the poorest of continents?
how does it make sense that monthly funding is increased by 25% in africa. isnt africa the poorest of continents?
Well... they do have a lot of diamonds, gold, and silver. Maybe it's a super national African funding drive.
NA May also be the biggest cash contributor on the council. Or they are the most balanced and provide a steady amount of money engineers, soldiers, and researchers.
I hope that later interceptions are no longer against solo UFOs - I mean, why should a big ship fly alone? You'd expect them to e relatively vulnerable, big targets, even if they do have great weapons. It would make more sense for them to flu with fighter escorts - a considerable number. Thus needing more interceptors.
I think it was mentioned in an interview somewhere that Africa was funding increase because it was all in. They were putting every cent they have towards xcom being based there. The other countries gave bonuses but must be keeping the $$ to themselves.
It's all too hard to tell until we get our hands on the game. To me the cheap aircraft sounds under powered but in the new game maybe the aircraft play a bigger role. Maybe they are more expensive and we lose more of them. Or it could just be in place to stop everyone that lives there placing the first base on home soil. It forces everyone to try different things with the base placement. (I don't mean any offence by that but every American I know that played the original game, always started right in the middle of the USA! Not one of them ever started in middle Europe or Russia )
First time I played Xcom I remember having read about WW2 and how invaders were unable to carry a campaign in Russia because of the weather and I figured the game would start at the first of the year (winter), I thought of how sparsely populated africa was and how unforgivably hot it was, then I thought of the US and figured it would probably one of the only nations able to defend itself properly via technology instead of weather, so I turned to the area around China to make my first base.... assuming it would need my help the most as it contained a huge amount of people in it's large but dense population, fair weather conditions, and an inability to protect itself (or it's massive amount of the human population it bore).
I lived in southern california, I was eleven years old.
I always used to built my base on top of Baghdad. It allowed you really early to respond to threats in Europe, Asia, and Africa. Close proximity to the most possible cities (terror missions) and the most land mass so downed UFOs could be landed at.
I was always a fan of eastern Europe/western Asia. I've never liked starting in the US and I think it's because when I first started playing over 1/2 of the UFOs I shot down ended up in the drink =/.
I swear by placing my bases in the Alps. That way, I can cover Russia, some of africa, the EU countries and some areas of asia. It's best overall coverage and you get more monies from that group then you'd get from the USA-which consistantly surrenders to the bugs, incidentally. Cheeseburger munching surrender apes.
That presupposes that any of these make sense...
The S.A. bonus is silly (time dilation), and the rest does not track with that part of the world. I expect that the S.A. bonus will either prove useless or the best of all of them (but probably the former). Here is to modding support.
Remember this is still subject to balancing-Also, I suspect that the Africa bonus also effects the still mysterious resources from the funding nations.
Doesn't the US still give you tons of money? I remember in the original that the majority of the funding came from the US.
My thread lives.. It LIVES ! My baby !!!
Is anyone going to try to site a base in Antarctica ?? For a real challenge?? LOL.. I might actually try that some time, probably not in the first playthrough.
Is there an Antarctica bonus? Extra sea lions every month?
I will absolutely be attempting the "Super Human Antarctica Challenge" although in this case I guess it would be the Impossible Antarctica Challenge. I think it would have to be modified slightly for this new version though. Instead of the rules being 1 base in Antarctica and no saves aside from saving the game at the end of a session (no reloads either) it would be like you can only have your main base and no satellite bases, or whatever they are, and you must play on Ironman mode.
Also, I like sea lions
Exactly my thoughts, if you are losing a bunch or even just one interceptor each time you go after a ufo, building them becomes a real money drain. If you don't lose them then eventually this cap out, the only two abilities taht don't "run out" are the extra funding and the 50% less maintenance.
Post that in this thread. I totally agree with you.
My guess is that the bonuses are designed to tailor for the following....
Africa: the "vanilla" location. OK at everything.
South America: people who want to beat the game in the fastest geoscape time. Players may challenge themselves to beat the game in under 1 year or something, and having instant interrogations, presumably needed to attack cydonia, saves the most time.
Asia: for players who simply love their troops, and want a strong squad on the ground. Probably helps the most with the ground combat side of the game.
Europe: for those players who like to rule the end game by researching everything and building everything. Less strong early on, very strong late game.
North America: If you shoot down UFOs, You can get away with not visiting crash sites. However, if you let them be, they turn into abductions, bases, and terror missions which cause panic level. Presumably, if you make air superiority a priority, you aren't forced to play as many ground missions. This makes this bonus good for people who prefer the geoscape/base building experience to the ground mission aspect. Since ground missions also take lots of time, this mode may be good for people who want to beat the game in the least RL playtime.
It could also be good for players who want to field their latest gadget as quickly and widely as possible (lots of workshops, less labs). Lag between developement and getting it out there fighting Aliens always tended to be an issue for me.Europe: for those players who like to rule the end game by researching everything and building everything. Less strong early on, very strong late game.
Ok I'm proud of this, watch my magnificent brain work:
"Yes, Africa is not the richest continent. Therefore manual labour and basic resources are cheaper to purchase. So you spend less on initial start-up costs and monthly expenses, in effect giving you a bonus of 25% more money."
imo, there shouldnt be a bonus at all..
But thats just me.
Also Ironmen don't need bonuses.
I don't know. I can see advantages and disadvantages to all of them at different points in the game and for different reasons. Of course this is based on how I played the original. With XCEU it might just be different. I suppose we shall have to wait and see. Only 104 more days.
As for who pulled their funding in my games -- Australia. 95% of the time they were the first (and often only) one to make a deal with the aliens. I'll admit it was probably my fault since they were just so far out of the way from everything else that they often did get neglected. But they were still the first for me most of the time.
Antarctica: isolated : you need to loose 12 funding nations to lose the game.
Oceania: naval response & salvage: shooting UFOs down over water recovers 25% of their resources.
I actually like the Oceania thing. Not bad, although they would have to balance for the correct % resource bonus.
In the original XCOM, I rarely lost an interceptor, even early on in the game when I was behind in research. It seemed bizarre that I would loose so few interceptors considering the aliens technological lead. So maybe you are right and we can expect bigger losses of aircraft, making this perk a much bigger deal.
Really, the first games interception system was very predictable and kind of weak. I hope they make it more variable so that most of the time there is a chance you will win, and a chance you will lose. This will result (for most players) in losing more ships throughout a game.
On the flip side, they should make building new ships less costly. Easier to destroy and easier to rebuild.
I concur.
You should put that in the interception post in support for a better interception system.
That was because all us Aussies were down with the Cult of Sirus
I think this time round the interceptions will be very different. If the USA base is dedicated to aircraft then I get the feeling we will be going through them more often. Otherwise this perk is totally pointless.

Hey Wes, thanks for chiming in here. Can you provide the link here for feature requests, I didn't even know that was an option and thanks for being open to that. Though I'm not usually the beta testing type. :)
I'm finding the pointer tool changes to trim (ugly Red brackets like this [ & ] ) far too quickly as I scroll to the edge of a clip. This is especially frustrating with small/micro clips/cutaways. The size of the trim brackets is obtrusive and bulky, we need this "font" redone. Is it like this because FCP has copy rights on certain styles of pointers?
It would be nice to have an option to change font size within the various windows, especially effects. On my 30" monitor it can be a squinting experience.
I'm going to put some time in to training and adjust myself before I have a good idea what features to add/tweak but you guys being open to make changes is huge.

So ends an era... Thanks for you help Chris. You will be missed.
Ahhhhh, NO! Too soon! Too soon!
I hope someone publishes collections of his articles. His work is timeless.
His voice, in print or in audio/visual will continue to be heard by many, for years to come. The world has lost a very profound and articulate mentor. We will miss him...
Johnny Walker tonight in his honor.
I may actually break out my 18-year-old MacAllan for him. It doesn't have the edge that the Johnny Walker has, but it has one thing in common with the Hitch: CLASS.
Ooh, nice. Drink one to Hitch for me too.
sounds like a plan Loren. i'm off to the liquor store to buy something similar. what a tough morning.
A sad loss not only for his family and friends but for all those he inspired to find their voice!

Three Babies Born This Fall in the Tri-State Area Thanks To Groundbreaking, Low-Cost Fertility Treatment - Natural Alternative to Traditional IVF
NEW YORK, Oct. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Neway Fertility, a leading NYC fertility clinic specializing in natural fertility treatments, today announced that three healthy babies have been born in the tri-state area thanks to IVM – a groundbreaking fertility treatment that requires little to no drugs and is a fraction of the cost of traditional IVF. This includes the first-ever IVM babies (twins) reported to be born in New York.
IVM (in vitro maturation) is an alternative to traditional IVF that offers a virtually drug-free, minimally invasive, and low-cost treatment for infertility. IVM is ideal for women with hormone-sensitive issues like PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), who cannot tolerate the high doses of ovarian stimulation drugs required by IVF. It's also an option for anyone interested in pursuing a more natural course of treatment for infertility.
The recent births are the result of a research study that Neway is conducting for women with PCOS and infertility, offering free IVM treatments to up to 20 women. A total of five out of seven women have become pregnant through the study so far, with three babies born to date, and three due in 2014. The first two couples to give birth to healthy IVM babies include:
Neway is one of only a handful of US clinics pioneering successful IVM treatments. IVM has already seen great success around the globe, with more than 4,000 live births worldwide – more than 1/4 of them under the direction of Neway's founder and technical director, fertility pioneer Dr. Jin-Ho Lim. Dr. Lim brought this innovative technique to Neway Fertility and trained an expert staff, led by top fertility specialist Dr. Jesse Hade, to help women in NYC and across the country realize their dreams of having a baby.
"With IVM, the eggs are retrieved and matured outside the body. IVM is a different technology from the traditional Natural cycle IVF, which uses only one or two oocytes matured in the body. This allows us to achieve a high success rate without subjecting women to high doses of infertility drugs, extensive blood tests, or constant ultrasounds. The eggs can be immediately implanted, or frozen for later use," explained Dr. Lim. "This is truly a breakthrough for women who are looking for more natural options, or simply don't have the option of using a conventional IVF approach."
"The first time Dr. Hade and Dr. Lim told us about IVM, we were hooked. No weeks of heavy meds? No risk of hyper-stimulation? No need to take a second mortgage to cover the cost? IVM was the answer we had been looking for," said new mom Talya. "The Neway staff gave us unparalleled support and encouragement, giving us back the hope we had lost after a year of trying to conceive. We are so grateful for this magical experience."
New moms Cecilia, Talya, and Manpreet are available to share their experiences with IVM, along with Dr. Lim and Dr. Hade, who can describe the procedure and how it's changing the practice of treating infertility.
About Neway Fertility
Neway Fertility is a leading NYC fertility clinic offering the full range of fertility treatments, with an emphasis on natural approaches. Neway was founded by Dr. Jin-Ho Lim, a pioneer in natural fertility and founder of the groundbreaking Maria Fertility Network in Asia. Dr. Lim established a world-class facility in Manhattan to bring his innovative treatments to the US, training an expert team led by top fertility specialist Dr. Jesse Hade, MD, F.A.C.O.G. Neway leverages innovative techniques and a personalized approach to deliver some of the highest success rates in the country for everything from traditional IVF, to natural alternatives like IVM, mild IVF, Natural cycle IVF, and Natural cycle IVF/M, to IUI, genetic testing, embryo screening, egg freezing, egg donation, and more.

Diabetes Self Management Education (DSME) referrals involve patients with varying levels of literacy and diabetes self care experience and knowledge. Recognized DSME programs currently offer standard curriculum in a marathon 10 hour approach or in multi-visits which total 10 hours. Nationwide program completion rates continue to be disappointing. In an effort to find ways to improve completion rates, Wohl Clinic diabetes educators designed a modular program that covers the required content but allows patients to choose sessions based on self assessment of knowledge/skill deficits. This modular approach offers these key features: • AADE 7 self-care behavior driven • safety-based content progression• built-in, application-based self evaluation• self-selection of course content• sensitivity to culture and all literacy levelsThis unique modular program promotes a patient centered and empowered approach to behavior self change – the keys to improved health outcomes.

Our dishwasher has an intermittent problem that has got worse and worse. We usually use the automatic cycle, and sometimes when it had finished the cycle the interior was cold and the deishes were wet. We'd run the cycle again and it would be ok.
This started off happening once in a blue moon, but now does every cycle. The Intensive (70 degree) cycle is the same.
The Economy (50 degree) seems to work insofar that if you open it mid cycle the water is warm, but the dishes are still wet at the end. This may be normal for the Economy cycle, we've never used it before.
Any help appreciated. First thought it was a failing heater element, but wonder whether it's the thermostat. Or maybe something else?
Thanks in advance,

So I saw on someone's journal today about all of their exercising, and it was racked up to almost 4,000! Of course I had to be nosey and find out what exercising could possibly burn THAT MANY calories, and to my surprise, there were only 2 "real" exercises listed. The majority of all the calorie burning came from everyday tasks that they had listed: sitting, standing...you get my drift. So it got me to thinking: if I naturally burn 1,500 calories a day--does that ONLY include me laying down or something?? Do I, in fact, burn way more calories per day because I, too, sit and stand, as well as cart laundry up and down two flights of stairs almost on a daily basis, as well as cook dinner, as well as massage my boyfriend umpteen times a day coz his back is just "in sooooo much pain"???
So I guess just a curious little poll: do YOU record every single tiny insignificant thing you do everyday???
And...should I?

The site by default gives 8 hours to sleep and 16 to resting.
I only add in time I've spent standing (like for a few hours at work), and if I do "actual" exercise.
Also, keep in mind, if someone weighs a lot more than you, they also burn a lot more calories since there is more mass burning calories.

No I only count actual workouts, I should change the default to 7 hours sleeping. I actually don't count all the walking at work either. At least not now. In June, I will be working a maintenance outage and will be walking considerabley. So I might count that on this site. My coaches in the last program didnt let me take credit unless it was strenght or cardio.

I usually only add exercises that I do over and above my daily routine. However, I am very sedentary so I add walking for half the time I actually walked and similar for standing. So if I stood for 30 minutes, I would add 10 minutes.
I do add the exercise I consciously do though.

If I couuld keep track of all those little things I do all day, I certainly would. but I am constantly moving around doing things so I just log the real exercise i do as SOME of my exercise. I dont need to know if I burn 4000 calories a day because that will just make me think that I can eat more.

I don't record any of my activity. Don't see the point, frankly.
I just hold my calories consistent and if that amount causes me to gain weight over a few weeks, I'm in a surplus. If I decrease, I'm in a deficit. It takes a little patience, because the scale is a lagging indicator of actual body mass gain and loss, but it's more accurate than the guesswork of online estimates.
Back to the OP:
So it got me to thinking: if I naturally burn 1,500 calories a day--does that ONLY include me laying down or something??
Basically, yes, that's your resting metabolic rate.
of the calories you burn in a day aren't from activity (athletes and physical laborers possibly excepted). Your resting metabolic rate is the energy needed for your body to function. Organs require energy to function. Tissue has to be maintained and repaired. Your brain needs a lot of energy too.
Your daily activity uses additional energy, on top of what you need just to exist, but your RMR usually accounts for most of what you burn in a day.

Hi all, found this thread at random and you all seem plugged in and rationale so a question for those of you who have been at this long(er) term. (I just started) Is the RDI what you are supposed to hit to reach your goal weight or maintain existing weight? It seems rather high for me (2500 cal per day) although I managed to surpass that yesterday by a series of screw ups. So do I force myself to eat 2500 a day or is a good thing to eat less?
Anyone open to a new buddy? I've got 10 to lose asap. I'm fit but make bad food choices from time to time and enjoy my social drinking on weekends.

when u go into you rdi, you can put in whether you want to lose or maintain, and how fast you want to lose, then you put in how active you are and it will calculate it for you..its just a suggested rdi though, you can try it out and make sure it works before you adjust it

as said by another poster there are two defaults set for resting and sleeping. you have to add in other exercises you do subtracting the amount from the resting. I never do the sleeping because I actually do get 8 hours sometimes more of sleep, if I'm lucky and I don't have practice. But, generally I do try to record each exercises I do within that day to a week out. Since most of my workout routines are set for me I know already what I'm going to do at what time. Its the free days that I have to be more strict about especially with food. But to answer your question...I am one of those extreme people that keep a journal on and off line about what I did and ate for the day. But, like I said I play a division sport,and I work full time in accounting. I think if you have a goal to reach if its to lose weight,get healthy and fit, or to cut and bulk for muscle mass we should be informed about our daily routines to help us understand which points of our workout or food should be adjusted to reach personal goals, and we should have a lot of fun. Without the fun we would be more hell bent on cutting the slack and/or quitting.

I find tracking calories burned VERY useful. Here's why: after my first 3.5 weeks, I looked at my total calories burned and calories eaten (in the diet calendar). Sure enough, I had burned about 35,000 calories more than I consumed. And I had lost 10 pounds! (3,500 cal = 1 pound). This really helps me take the longer view of my diet and not get discouraged by a bump up on the scale. I am focusing my goals on creating that calorie deficit through both diet and exercise, and I am confident that my body will follow.
I am not losing weight. I am gaining health. Since April 24, 2012:

I also leave out normal day to functions, habits and tasks like sleeping, desk work, shopping, standing and so on. And I do find using the calculators useful - just a bit deceptive, I guess. I find that most diet and exercize calculators overestimate exersion and underestimate caloric content. To compensate I set my RDI at sedentary and my exercize diary is set to resting by default. I add only actual workouts and the 80 minutes total of brisk walking to and from work I do each day.
There are exceptions. If I spend my usually sedentary day at work hauling large file boxes up and down the stairs, I will add several hours of desk work - or if I spend a long afternoon hauling heavy shopping bags around town on foot I add a an hour or so of "shopping". Those are days I need to remind myself to slightly increase my intake so I don't feel sick before my evening workouts.

I also am more than slightly skeptical about the number of calories they show as burned in sleeping/resting/other sedentary activities - if this were true, I would have been losing weight every year for the past 15 years instead of putting it on -
I am not on a diet, just recording my usual meals and trying to eat healthy (but not giving up my wine so far), but even without exercising I supposedly consume fewer calories than I burn using their calculators - but without exercising, I gain weight -
just started doing this, but I am not recording all activities - leaving a lot as just resting to try and calories used on the low side

Hello all, just joined this site recently. I think the number of calories they show is obviously an estimate. Everyone's metabloic rate is different. If you are gaining or maintaining your weight and want to lose then you have to change something. Either move more, eat less or both! I'm using that number as the starting point and adjusting around it. If that number is my regular, stay the same weight point and I want it to move, I have to cut my calories and expend more energy. I've never tracked my food so diligently before and it is so interesting to see where I need adjusting!

I do record standing, but that's because I work as a bartender/server, so I'm on my feet 6-10 hours each shift. Not to mention, it's walking rather than standing, but I figure recording it as strictly standing makes up for the times when I'm stationary table side instead of walking.

My job requires LOTS of stop and start walking over a 12 hour period, with shorter, but varying periods of "desk work", so I find it difficult to quantify the amount of walking I'm actually doing...I decided to try a pedometer, and it showed I had walked over 3 miles in one 12 hour period...that just seems really unlikely to me...anybody else have a similar? I have read and heard that pedometers aren't very accurate, but I'm open to suggestions from anyone with experience in using them.
Would also take suggestions on logging the type of start and stop walking I mentioned....thanks.

Dear Baxie, it might be an idea to invest in a pedometer, this will allow you to record your steps you take during the day. They say 10,000 steps = approximately 4 miles. Also this type of walking is leisure walking. Good Luck

tchalupa, can you recommend a good quality, accurate pedometer? The one I mentioned in my above post seems pretty unreliable, and I've read that that's pretty much the norm.

Dear Baxie, if you go to Target.com or amazon.com there are several and the price ranges are from 3.00 upto 99.00 "Fitbit" is on the expensive side but works i think the best, Sportsline is cheaper and works well also I have used the pedometer download from "Beth Isreal deaconess Medical Center" Android download.(Smartphone download).
I know many people do not like the smarphone downloads as they say they are inaccurate. Put the phone in your pocket there are tips on the download of making the pedometer accurate.
It is great as a guide to help push your motivation just a little bit more.
Good Luck.

that I am evil. Money isn't the root of all evil - it's the love of money. But I love money.
From an aesthetic point, I mean. Years ago I began to collect paper money, possibly because I find the new currency ugly beyond belief, and want a few reminders of the good old days when dollar bills were ornate and backed by metal. Once a week I stop by a coin & bill dealer in the skyway and examine the latest offerings, and perhaps pick up something for the collection. (Which so far has a face value of $8.) The other day the dealer pulled out a sheaf of old stock certificates, and with dismay I realized I'll probably end up collecting these, too. And they're worthless.
But. Each has an engraving of some allegorical figure, etched with the same care you find on money, but depicting scenes of surreal Olympian figures designed as a metaphor for business. Bouffant-haired women in gravity-confounding dresses similar to Leslie Parrish's in the Star Trek episode ("Who Will Mourn for Adonis") with electrical devices at their feet; "Green Acres" era Park Avenue matrons in classical garb rolling the world around their penthouse balcony; salacious-faced gods with a test-tube in one hand.
The images were too peculiar to pass up. I bought a batch, scanned them in, and voila: the Bureau of Corporate Allegory. Nowadays when you buy stocks, you don't always get the certificate, but these are remnants of the days when you did, and when the certificate said This Is Money. Sort Of. The paper has the weight of something valuable; the engravings and borders say Tangible Worth. Unlike regular money, they have the owner's name stamped on the front. The value of each of these certificates could evaporate in seconds, but even now these canceled notes for defunct corporations seem valuable. You instinctively handle them with care.
But these are just pictures of pictures. Crease them all you like.
