Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Member Review for the PS3
1- 16
Kojima Productions
Contains Blood, Crude Humor, Strong Language, Suggestive Themes, Violence
What do these ratings mean?
I know this game has an online feature,
Metal Gear: Online
, however I will not be reviewing Metal Gear: Online because I have been having issues in attempting to connect with it, and thus I have not played it yet. This review is for the
single player campaign
of Metal Gear Solid 4 only.
So it's finally here. Legendary game designer Hideo Kojima's
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
, the highly anticipated sequel of the critically acclaimed
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
. This time though, it's the final chapter of the Metal Gear Solid saga, this is indeed Solid Snake's final mission. Does it live up to the hype and does Solid Snake successfully complete his mission? Or does Solid Snake unfortunately, ultimately fail?
Unlike the third installment, players will once again take control of Solid Snake, now known as "Old Snake". To begin with, Snake is now an old man, despite this story set five mere years after the Big Shell Incident of
Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
. Unknown to Snake, his old friend Otacon and several doctors they have seen, Snake's age is rapidly increasing, as Snake assumes he has "a year at best" remaining. Shortly after the introduction of Otacon, Old Snake is recruited by his old friend Otacon and Colonel Campbell, who are sending this old war veteran on a final mission to the middle east, to eliminate Liquid Snake. Liquid Snake has amassed forces within his PMCs (Private Military Contractors) which now fight wars for governments, and it's up to Snake to stop Liquid from successfully completing his insurrection.
The storyline of Metal Gear Solid 4 is pretty solid however, it may become incredibly confusing at times. It's best to have knowledge of all the previous games before playing the final installment, but it's not exactly required. Fans of the series will have only slight difficulty understanding the story, while newcomers may have great difficulty. The cut scenes like all previous Mear Gear Solid titles, go on for quite sometime. This game probably has the longest at that. Thankfully, the developers have finally decided to introduce a pause feature to cut scenes, and even allow players to skip it all if they really want to, but the problem with this is that if you miss a cut scene, you're most likely going to miss very important events that you won't be able to watch again. The overall story is worth watching though, especially with the fantastic voice acting, and the sheer amount of emotion within the story.
Players will note when they begin the game two things. The first thing, is the visuals. Metal Gear Solid 4 possesses some of the best visuals to ever grace the Playstation 3. The cinematic sequences are absolutely breath taking as it uses the in-game engine. It is absolutely incredible, to say at the very least.
The control scheme is the second thing that players will notice. The control scheme is very similar to that of the previous titles, with the camera however working similar to that of
Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence
. Things are slightly different however. When crouching, Snake is able to move while crouching, similar to that of Sam Fisher of the
Splinter Cell
franchise. Snake crawls now when the player holds the X button down when he is crouching. CQC makes a return, with slight modifications.
Snake may be old, but it's never too late for him to learn new tricks. Snake can now do log rolls while crawling, resulting in lying on his back and even crawling on his back. Even more so, you can also shoot with firearms while on your back, shooting at things above you, or behind you. This is useful if you are knocked to the ground and need to retaliate quickly. Snake also has some new abilities such as being able to flip down from ledges, as well as improved CQC. Snake will also acquire his classic card board box but, will now also obtain a steel barrel, which can be used not only as a disguise, but as a defensive weapon to directly roll into and knock over enemies.
With the improved CQC, Snake is once again able to grab people from any direction into a hold, resulting in either a human shield, or an execution with the knife to the throat. Snake can also even perform more melee attacks and take downs with rifle weapons.
The actual gun play has changed somewhat too. Players will find that they can aim with a Resident Evil 4-style over the shoulder camera, or go directly into first person mode. The player can also walk and strafe while shooting in either mode. It is also possible to turn on an auto lock on system, similar to the previous titles.
The most interesting piece of Snake's equipment is his new muscle suit, which utilizes the "OctoCamo", which means camouflage has returned as a form of stealth. Unlike the camouflage uniforms of Snake Eater, the OctoCamo has the ability to take the colour and textures of any surface Snake presses himself against (by using the triangle button), which means Snake is capable of camouflaging himself in any environment. These camouflages can also be saved, and can be accessed at any point. To begin with, Snake has no form of face camouflage, but acquires it later in the game to increase Snake's overall camouflage.
The camouflage meter, or "Camo Index" works exactly the same as Snake Eater. It's a percentage from zero to a hundred percent. The higher the percent, the more camouflage Snake is, and the less likely he will be seen.
The stamina meter as seen in Snake Eater has gone, and in exchange Snake now has the "Psyche" meter which represents his psychological condition, as well as the "Stress" meter. Snake's stress will increase during combat, especially when under heavy fire, and as this occurs, Snake's Psyche meter will begin to drop. The Psyche meter is important as it determines how well Snake performs in combat, from aiming to fighting. Snake's stress can be reduced by simply moving into a quiet zone and making him have a rest, or by having cigarettes (which decreases Snake's health slowly). Snake's Psyche can also be recovered by the usage of items, or simply resting.
Unlike the previous titles, Snake can now pick up the ammunition and weapons of fallen enemies. However should he pick up weapons from PMC soldiers, their weapons will most likely be "locked". However, these weapons can be unlocked via a new character introduced to the franchise, Drebin.
Meeting Drebin early in the game, Drebin can sell Snake brand new weapons and even upgrades for Snake to upgrade certain weapons he has in possession. Each time Snake picks up a weapon, it will be instantly sold to Drebin in exchange for "Drebin points". Snake will only sell these weapons to Drebin however, if he is already in possession of it, and he will keep the ammunition. By collecting these Drebin points, Snake can use these points to buy more of Drebin's services.
The game is set up in acts, similar to that of chapters. There are five chapters throughout the game, each chapter taking roughly three to four hours to complete. The game has much replay value, due to the amount of unlockables and different methods to actually play the game, including the usage of different weapons and upgrades from Drebin.
Once again, the boss battles are absolutely crazy, however it should be noted that the bosses Snake encounters in this chapter, the "Beauty and the Beast" unit, are not as interesting as the Cobra Unit found in the third installment. Regardless, these boss fights are still challenging, interesting, and can be quite intense.
Many characters make a return for the final chapter of the Metal Gear Solid saga, such as Otacon, Colonel Campbell, Raiden, and Vamp.
This game however, like all video games in general, is far from perfect.
The game is quite linear, tending to offer only one path throughout each area. Each area is fairly big, but there aren't that many open paths for the player to take. The game tends to guide the player down one direction only. It's a shame Snake isn't able to do things like climbing hills and scaling cliffs, which would of been a cool addition in my opinion.
The cut scenes will receive mixed views. On one hand, they are absolutely beautiful and enjoyable to watch, but on the other hand, they can be quite boring when the game throws two dimensional drawing slide shows at the player, or when the cut scene may drag on for an unnecessary length. It also gets annoying when you play for less than five minutes, and then are forced to sit through a cut scene that goes for twenty minutes or so.
Combat can tend to vary in regards to difficulty. Sometimes it can be easier, but at the same time can become very difficult, especially when Snake's Stress and Psyche meter come into play. It is possible to run and gun, but it can be assumed, due to the Psyche and Stress meters, that the developers are heavily encouraging on stealth this time around. Thankfully though, Stress/Psyche doesn't have much effect in boss battles.
Probably the biggest flaw of this game are the installation times. When the game is first installed, it takes eight minutes to install. But, each time the player enters a new Act, the game must take another two to three minute installation process. The most annoying aspect however, is let's say, you have a save file set in Act 1, and a save file set in Act 2, if you play in your Act 2 file, and decide to load up your Act 1 file, the game will have to install this process again. It's not that big of a deal honestly, but it would be better to just jump right into the game, and play.
In my opinion, I'm disappointed that this game doesn't have a duel mode, or a mode where you can watch any of the cinematic sequences in the game. At the very least, players can watch the "Mission Briefing" cinematic sequences that appear at the beginning of every Act.
Overall, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots does indeed make its mark on the Playstation 3. For all Metal Gear fans out there, this is indeed a must to play, while those who haven't really played the Metal Gear games before, should at the very least give it a go. It's one hell of a game and well worth a purchase, and place in anyone's gaming library.
Solid Snake's final mission is complete, and we should all applaud the fictional protagonist of his efforts in the Metal Gear Solid saga. While he will technically no longer be in any potential future games of Metal Gear, he'll always have a place as one of the greatest video game protagonists of this time.
Here's to you, Snake. Here's to you.

Walking up to a department store's fabric counter, the pretty girl said, "I would like to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it cost?" "Only one kiss per yard," replied the male clerk with a smirk. "That's fine," said the girl. "I'll take ten yards." With expectation and anticipation written all over his face, the clerk quickly measured out the cloth, wrapped it up, then teasingly held it out. The girl snapped up the package, pointed to the old geezer standing beside her, and smiled, "Grandpa will pay the bill."

"moving portrait of a layered female character"
this book was extremely interesting to listen to. when i was in college, i had a professor who's main profession was translating Italian poetry into English for American audiences. i had many conversations with him regarding his choice to be a translator...and his feelings on how a translator often has a more difficult task than an original author. getting into the mind of the author, trying to make the correct choices when there are often multiple "English" translations for a foreign language word. i admit i was in awe of him, as he showed me some of his translations and how different they could be by changing just one word's meaning. we would dissect sentences from his translated poetry and he would tweak one word, one phrase...and turn the poem on it's head.
that being said, the sentiment in Hanne Schubert's dialogue about translation hit me in a familiar place. and the idea of Hanne's life being turned on it's head after her fall was extremely congruent with the ideas of her translations.
i don't want to say too much about the novel, as i felt it was a very intriguing and deeply moving portrait of a very layered female character. but what i will say is that Hanne is one of the most complex and difficult characters i have encountered in awhile. i am still conflicted by her...i'm not sure i like her, not sure i dislike her...definitely feel very mixed emotions. but i did enjoy reading about her...and her discovery of herself, the good, the bad and the extremely ugly.
"Impressive Novel of Loss and Family"
loved this dissection of an American family in the aftermath of a tragedy and how each member copes (or doesn't) with it.
i think the characters were so strong...it was like i was living this story through them. i knew how each of them thought, felt, existed.
the way Johnston handled the thought provoking experience of losing (and finding) a child was really expertly done. i couldn't stop the story from running in my head -- and i expect to continue to think about it for a while.
i was surprised and extremely impressed with how this novel ended...really really liked it
"Great Book Immediately Placed On My ReRead Pile"
i love how this novel jumped back in time to four generations of inhabitants of the hundred-year house. starting in the "now" and going back with so many secrets intertwining all three generations. every section answers questions, gives you more questions, and wraps you up in the secrets and lies and intensity of the house.
i loved the character development, even in the shortest sections -- i loved the interactions between the artists, the owners, the caretakers and the house itself. the house was the main character (obviously) and held all the secrets in its walls and under it's soil and in every part of it.
would read again.
"Slow Building Story With No Real Payoff"
ok. spent some time thinking about this book...and maybe the fact that I couldn't decide how to review it should make me give it a higher review..but i don't know, i just can't.
while the book is beautifully written...i just felt something was incomplete in the story. it is a very slow build and nothing in particular made me want to keep reading (though i did, to the end, so maybe it's sadness made me want to know how it ends). i guess i just felt like while there was some worthwhile prose and some interesting commentary on grief and how people handle it....but i'm not sure the book as a whole felt complete and i don't think i would recommend it to anyone.
"Great Creepy and Graphic Horror Crossover"
i like the way Beukes writes. one of the better writers in this type of crossover genre that i've read.
this book in particular is extremely graphic and thrilling and very well done. all of the narrators are great...well thought out and have unique and exciting voices. i loved layla the best...but was also quite interested in TK's path in the story.
"Magical Historical Story of Secrets and Misery"
Really well written book. It made me sad to read, but kept me fascinated with the magic and history and characters. It's a book about secrets and more secrets. And as each of the secrets came to be revealed more and more trouble fell upon the characters. I truly didn't want the story to end...I could have followed these characters infinitely.
"Classic Stephen King Horror Story"
solid classic King story. i really liked the fact that this novel had a huge lead up to a really really scary payoff at the end. Jamie Morton was a great protagonist....he was your typical King lead male antihero, with a great back story and a wonderful voice.
Charles Jacobs was an awesome creepster. You knew from the start there was something...off...and of course when the apex of the story hits you're floored at just how off. The ending, though a bit rushed, comes out of nowhere and scares the shit out of you...in true King style.
I am a fan. I will always be a fan. I love his sick mind and am glad he shares it with all of us.
"amazing story of two utterly broken women"
it's one of the best books i've read this year. definitely top 5 for 2014.
the emotional rawness of each of the characters
it's hard to choose a favorite scene...the book is full of tragic snippets of these two girls/women and each is devastating and beautiful and raw all at the same time.
the end of the book really made me rethink my notions of both characters.
"Heller and Deakins are a magnificent pair"
Peter Heller is an amazing writer. he writes the most complex male characters. they are so masculine, but have fragile and empathetic sides...they are delicate and strong at the same time. they are smart, witty, full of depth. and they are full of violence and grief and something that you just love and root for. this book made me so unsteady...it was heartbreaking and shocking and sad...
read by Deakins, his characters become real and intimate and even more honest.
i think Heller is one of the best authors of our time.
"story of a selfish awful family of people"
this is a tough book to rate and review. i found most of the main characters so selfish and self consumed, it was hard to feel any genuine empathy or sympathy for them. both sisters at the heart of the story were horrid girls. i kept trying to convince myself they weren't so bad...that they were just teenagers...but i just couldn't excuse their behavior.
i think that parts of the story, the study of human behavior and misinformation at the beginning of the AIDS crisis, were quite interesting. i was too young when this story took place to know that this is how people reacted to someone with AIDS. it made me sad. it made me mad.
but the actual family this story revolved around, i didn't really care for or about, and so i have a hard time saying i liked this book.
"really scary read for thriller fans"
this book was truly scary. i mean...what a well written story. i think it's supposed to be categorized "post apocalyptic" but really i think it's a horror novel. i was scared from beginning to end and i loved every word of it.

#StyleMyWardrobe + A Farrow & Ball Giveaway
Closets are a private, intimate space in which all of your beautiful belongings live. Because most of us are making outfit choices in our closets, I believe that it's important to feel creatively inspired while spending time in there. For me this means keeping my closet well organized and well edited and complete with special details. I like bringing in personality driven elements that aren't wardrobe related such as fresh flowers, a favorite perfume, delicate little tchotchke's and the crème de la crème: wallpaper.
Farrow & Ball recently challenged a handful of bloggers to wallpaper the back of our own wardrobes with their stunning papers and this is the result of mine! I chose a print from their spring 2015 wallpaper collection which is inspired by nineteenth and twentieth century French fashion and it's perfectly neutral and textured at the same time.
In addition, I'm giving away wallpaper to one lucky winner to decorate your own closet with. All F&B wallpapers are unique, created using their own paints traditionally trough or block printed onto ground papers to give them an extraordinary texture and appearance. They're truly the best!
Here's how to enter:
Post a picture via twitter/Instagram/facebook of your current wardrobe using the hashtag #stylemywardrobe, tagging both me, @gerihirsch and @farrowandball.
Easy enough? Good luck!

Dr. Kennedy is very knowledgable and listens very well. She understood what my concerns were. I felt very comfortable talking about problems I was having. Work with her has help me feel better.
My son has struggled with ADHD since he was in pre-school. Dr. Kennedy really understood how hard it can be for him, and at times for me. She worked with us to find the medication that's working for him and to help with some of the daily battles we were having. We highly recommend her.

Really?Personally I thought the numerical sequencing was the only thing that DID work on this prime advertising site...Hmmm, I must " view source" again and recheck the flash quantum of the sites program....stay where you are while I check.....................*yawn*........................Okay, done....Nope.....nothings changed, David...but i'm confident that management will read this message(*choke*) and in doing so, will promptly procede in doing what they have always done better than any other website management team I have had the dishonor of visiting....NOTHING! Now, if you were an advertiser paying ridiculous dollars for a 6x1 header banner with all the migraine triggering flash & dance, you might have bought yourself a dark-horse shot at a reply...but the outcome would be the same...NOTHING! Furthermore, there is a better than remote possibility that the reply you receive (upon closer look) will merely turn out to be the new statement for your ad-space! Cheers 2-U ~FjR~

messages to my son
I am gathering your messages and will be sending them to my son. I know he will appreciate your thoughts and I am sure he will share your kind words with his Marine buddies.
In honor of Veterans Day, here is a moving, patriotic tribute to our military, past and present.
Tomorrow is Veterans Day... the day we set aside each year to honor the service of all U.S. military veterans, when truthfully, it should be every single day of the year.
Absolutely precious!
We think this could be worse than when President Obama forgot to salute a Marine outside of the White House last year!
Veteran Matt Foster had a very special bond with one of his Marine brothers, and now that brother has come home. The beautiful reunion is just the start of this story!
Matt Foster, United States Marine Corps Veteran, returned home from a tour in Afghanistan and was missing one very important thing
Next Thursday is the thirteenth anniversary of September 11th...a day that Americans will never forget.
While performing for the troops at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait, Robin Williams was presented with a situation and handled it impeccably!
As we move on from Memorial Day, we never forget the men and women of the Armed Forces who have put their lives on the line everyday in order to keep us safe.
April is the month of the military child, and Purple Up Day is a nationwide celebration of military persons and their families. Join us by wearing purple on April 15 in support of military kids all over the country!
This is the mother of all surprises.

Thread: I am letting my DSL go..
I am letting my DSL go..
I am going to get dial up. I can save 40.00 a month. That adds up. It might be slow but I am spending 91.00 on my phone bill a month now. I have cut every thing to make my bill about 26.00 a month now. I am going to buy a phone card to make long distant calls or I have been doing the web site phone hog , and I get free Min's just for reading e mails.
You gotta do what you gotta do... old cliche but it works.. atleast you will still be able to get on and visit with all of us....
01-03-2008, 10:05 AM #3Good for you!!
We just cut down our cable and internet service as well, basic cable (local channels) basic high speed internet. It will cut my bill by more than half!
Plus, I start school next week so I won't really have time to watch 398 channels!

Good job!
Just think about all the money you will be saving
01-03-2008, 10:08 AM #5Good for you on taking the plunge on doing what's best for you. Maybe you'll be freeing up some time to do something else you enjoy. Hope it goes virtually painless for you & keep your eye on the prize.
01-03-2008, 10:09 AM #6I have dial up. I pay $9.23 a month. I cannot imagine paying $50 or more for internet. I work from home though and have time to let things load. Plus I do not do anything major on computer.
It does add up, good for you!
01-03-2008, 11:48 AM #8Great job! I wish I could do that but work from home and need the faster line but not higher bill...LOL

Sounds like a good, well-thought-out decision! Keep up the good work!
01-03-2008, 05:22 PM #10I think that's great, that you have found areas to cut.
01-03-2008, 08:05 PM #11That will be almost $500 extra $$$ in your wallet! Good for you!
Bought my new oven 1/08 and loving it!
My recurrent nightmare is there is no such thing as PMS, and this is my real personality.
01-03-2008, 08:10 PM #12Good for you. I use dial-up and only pay 16.95 a month. I plan on getting a computer in the summer but will keep the dial-up.
01-03-2008, 08:13 PM #13I agree; you got to do what you got to do. At least you will still be able to visit the forums. :-)

President Obama on Wednesday rallied faith leaders to pressure Republicans to pursue comprehensive immigration reform during a morning meeting at the White House.
In addition to the president, Vice President Biden, senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, Domestic Policy Council Director Cecilia Muñoz and director of faith-based partnerships Melissa Rogers attended the meeting.
"The President and the leaders discussed their shared commitment to raise the moral imperative for immigration reform and said they will continue keeping the pressure on Congress so they can swiftly pass commonsense reform," the White House said in a statement.
According to the White House, Obama told the leaders there was "no reason for House Republicans to continue to delay action on this issue that has garnered bipartisan support."
But on Capitol Hill earlier Wednesday, Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said that House committees needed to "develop the principles" of immigration reform before they "figure out how we're going to move ahead."
"But let's understand something — I want to deal with this issue," Boehner said. "But I want to deal with it in a common sense, step-by-step way."
Boehner stressed that he would not be willing to pass legislation that allowed for a conference with the Senate, from which a comprehensive bill might emerge.
"We've made it clear that we're going to move on a common-sense, step-by-step approach in terms of how we deal with immigration," Boehner said.
"The idea that we're going to take up a 1,300-page bill that no one had ever read, which is what the Senate did, is not going to happen in the House. And frankly, I'll make clear we have no intention of ever going to conference on the Senate bill."
Boehner's comments indicate that efforts by the White House to build pressure on immigration may be failing. Last week, President Obama hosted Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) at the White House for a conversation partially devoted to charting out a path forward.
At his meeting with business executives last week, the president said he wanted to make immigration "easy" for House Republicans.
"The politics are challenging for the Speaker and others, and we want to make it as easy for him as possible," Obama said. "This is not an issue where we're looking for a political win."
Still, the issue is politically charged, and likely one that will play a role in the upcoming midterm elections. A Basswood Research poll released Tuesday of likely voters in 20 Republican-represented swing districts found that a majority of likely voters supported comprehensive immigration reform.
Last week, labor groups — including the SEIU and AFL-CIO — announced ad campaigns in Republican districts to ramp up pressure on house members.

The Veterans Affairs and Defense departments have partnered with 3M Co. to adopt a common vocabulary of terms and a structured data system for their joint digital health record under development, the company announced May 16.
Under a mutual agreement, the VA and DOD have adopted 3M's Healthcare Data Dictionary of thousands of medical terms and concepts, and 3M has agreed to freely distribute an open source version of its data dictionary.
According to 3M, the data dictionary is the most comprehensive available and has been used for more than 20 years. It is a structured data system that translates clinical and administrative data into more than 170,000 coded medical concepts.
The agreement between VA, DOD and 3M is expected to create semantic interoperability for the joint VA-DOD electronic health record. It also is expected to spur innovation and competition by offering free access to vendors, as well as to hospitals, physicians, health systems, insurers and public health agencies around the world. In the past, most users had to pay a licensing fee to obtain access to the data dictionary.
"This agreement will accelerate Electronic Health Record adoption across the industry and help achieve a common language for health care," Dr. Hon Pak, former chief information officer for the U.S. Army Medical Department, said in a news release. "We'll be able to access meaningful data, analyze it, and deliver it back to clinicians to help them make better decisions for their patients. The Health Data Dictionary makes this possible in ways no other product or service can."
On the other hand, entities that currently use or own other medical data dictionaries presumably would have to switch to the 3M system in order to be interoperable with the VA and DOD joint record.

A data dictionary? What a concept! Back in the stone age mainframe days, DOD had one of those, although enforcement was spotty at best. Given that most of VA's patients are ex-DOD, why is this even a question? The records should be standardized, and probably kept in the same secure cloud or server.

Windows XP flaws help Russian 'Qbot' gang build 500,000 PC botnet
The Russian gang behind the obscure Qbot botnet have quietly built an impressive empire of 500,000 infected PCs by exploiting unpatched flaws in mainly US-based Windows XP and Windows 7 computers, researchers at security firm Proofpoint have discovered.
A year or two ago, what the Qbot (aka Qakbot) campaign has achieved in the roughly half dozen years the actors behind it have been operating would have been seen as a major concern. Recently, standards have gone up a notch.
Cortana to get geo-fenced Wi-fi activation
Microsoft released upon the world a technical preview of Windows 10 and even though Cortana does not work in this version, there are still assets related to the feature in the build. Because of this, you can crack open these files and take a look at what is coming down the pipe for the platform.
While we now know that package tracking is coming, another new feature will be geo-fenced Wi-Fi activation. Like the last bit of information, this information comes from a resource file pertaining to Cortana, bootstraprules.xml.
Microsoft takes the wraps off Windows 10
Microsoft has finally announced its new OS. The Wi-Fi password at today's intimate San Francisco event was "Windows 2015", leading some to speculate that Microsoft might have chosen to return to naming its OS after the year of launch (a nod to Windows 95/98), but that turned out not to be the case -- a wise move. So what name would the tech giant choose? Not Windows 9, the obvious and expected pick, nor Windows One, the rumored alternative.

Microsoft, which recently announced the consolidation of several of its conferences, is now going in the opposite direction and resurrecting WinHEC, which was last held in 2008.
WinHEC, first held in the early 1990s, was an annual engineering conference aimed at Microsoft hardware partners, with the goal of helping them better integrate their devices with the company's operating system and other software.
Microsoft, frustrated as ever with H-1B policy, considers options
A two-day conference on high-skilled immigration policy, which attracted researchers from the U.S. and Europe, offered Microsoft an opportunity to voice frustration over U.S. immigration policy.
William Kamela, a senior federal policy lead at Microsoft who detailed the stakes and options his company faces, said the firm will apply for "roughly" 1,000 H-1B visas in next April's application period. "And we will get maybe 50% of those," assuming there is another visa lottery, he said. Lotteries are held once the overall 85,000 cap is exceeded.

People starting out in business tend to seek step-by-step formulas or rules, but in reality there are no magic bullets. Rather, says veteran company-builder Norm Brodsky, there's a mentality that helps street- smart entrepreneurs solve problems and pursue opportunities as they arise. Brodsky shares his hard-earned wisdom every month in Inc. magazine, in the hugely popular "Street Smarts" column he cowrites with Bo Burlingham. Now they've adapted their best advice into a comprehensive guide for anyone running a small business.
"This great audio was originally called The Knack!"
Geoff Smart and Randy Street offer a simple, four-step method for hiring with confidence, designed for everyone from the CEO on down. Who shows you how to avoid the most common pitfalls of hiring, how to identify "A Players" - people who can perform their job better than 90 percent of the candidates in their field - and how to make sure the best candidate will be excited to join your organization.
"interesting technique"
Jim Rogers, whose entertaining accounts of his travels around the world - studying the markets from Russia to Singapore from the ground up - has enthralled investors and Wall Street aficionados for two decades. In his engaging memoir Street Smarts, Rogers offers pithy commentary from a lifetime of adventure, from his early years growing up a naïve kid in Demopolis, Alabama, to his fledgling career on Wall Street, to his cofounding the wildly successful Quantum Fund [omit George Soros], Rogers always had a restless curiosity to experience and understand the world around him.
"Jim Rogers tells it like it is"
"The Smart Way to Teach Children About Money" is from the February 02, 2015 Markets section of The Wall Street Journal. It was written by Charlie Wells and narrated by Ken Borgers.
"Xiaomi Mi Note Review: The Best Smartphone You Can't Buy in America" is from the February 26, 2015 Tech section of The Wall Street Journal. It was written by Geoffrey A. Fowler and narrated by Ken Borgers.
Henni, the scribe of Stella Street (also the tallest girl in her new school) tells everything that happened when the new unfriendly neighbours (from hell) moved into 45 Stella Street. From the moment the newcomers they nicknamed The Phonies cruised down friendly old Stella Street in their silver Bentley turbo, there was trouble. They were all in it together: Henni, her best friend Zev, her loopy sister Danielle, little Frank who lives at 47 and his dog Briquette (aff aff aff aff) – but Henni tells it best.
The friends and neighbors of Stella Street have found the perfect camping spot - miles of forest all around, a grassy clearing, and a swift-moving stream with a lovely swimming hole. Six parents, five kids, one neighbor, and a blissed-out dachshund explore, build camp fires, and skinny-dip. It's the kind of magical place where nothing bad could happen. Well, except for the shady loggers who try to cut down some old-growth trees. And the juvenile delinquent who follows them from the city. And a horrendous storm...
She's beautiful, street-smart, and hoping to leave her troubled past behind her. Makedde Vanderwall has finished her studies and is ready to start practising as a forensic psychologist. She's also starting a new life in Australia with her detective boyfriend Andy Flynn. Hoping to scrape together some extra cash, Mak begins doing part-time work for an infamous Sydney PI.

Samsung Omnia HD i8910 Review
A Symbian-injected followup to the so-so Windows Mobile Omnia, the HD i8910 is a specced-out slab of phone from Samsung, with a 3.7-inch AMOLED screen, 8MP camera, HD video recording and a definite thing for multimedia.
A Symbian-injected followup to the so-so Windows Mobile Omnia, the HD i8910 is a specced-out slab of phone from Samsung, with a 3.7-inch AMOLED screen, 8MP camera, HD video recording and a definite thing for multimedia. » 8/23/09 3:00pm 8/23/09 3:00pm
Well, how nice of Verizon: A software update for the Samsung Omnia will actually let third-party apps access the phone's GPS, which was restricted to using Verizon's navigation software only. Verizon: the open cell carrier. [Mobileburn] » 7/17/09 9:30am 7/17/09 9:30am
Crysis is the current standard bearer for PC game graphics. If your computer can run Crysis well, it's a pretty impressive setup. So it's pretty nuts to see Crysis running smoothly on a Samsung Omnia cellphone. » 6/23/09 11:00am 6/23/09 11:00am
One nice thing I stumbled upon during this year's mostly underwhelming CTIA cellphone show was Samsung's wall of 300 OLED displays, the same screen used in their Omnia. » 4/03/09 9:00pm 4/03/09 9:00pm

Apparently we weren't the only ones a little baffled by the pricing of VZW's Omnia—after being available for only six days, the price has dropped down to $200 (with the same $70 rebate and two-year contract), bringing it even with the Blackberry Storm.

The Gadget: Samsung Omnia for Verizon, a touchscreen Windows Mobile 6.1 phone that's been slicked up with Samsung's TouchWiz UI and a five-megapixel camera, plus it's that rare Verizon beast that also packs Wi-Fi. » 11/25/08 9:00am 11/25/08 9:00am
If the BlackBerry Storm isn't quite your beat, Verizon's got a surprisingly sturdy brigade of other phones coming out next month, headlined by Samsung's Omnia and HTC's Touch Pro (sorry, XV6850—why won't you just let HTC be, Verizon?). The Omnia's keeping the same crappy UI, but it'll be tarted up red, the way VZW… » 10/24/08 1:30pm 10/24/08 1:30pm
According to a rebate document that popped up on Howard Forums, the Samsung Omnia may be heading to the Verizon network sometime this year.

MobiFrance got a hands on with the Samsung Omnia i900 at the launch event in Singapore, and as the video shows, there are some nice multimedia features at work with the UI.

It's not that the Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional-based 3G Samsung Omnia is not a good phone. In fact, we already knew that it looks very good.

A "Oh fuck me" moment (self.bindingofisaac)
submitted 2 years ago by Monthral
Firstly I have a question, if you beat xxx baby while you have the ankh on a character other than xxx and you beat him while using it, does it count as beating the chest level with xxx? If so this is gonna make the story much more painful. I ran into the blue baby room with only a few hearts on me and died fairly quickly, I completely forgot that i had the ankh. I figured I was gonna die anyway but I still tried and what do you know i killed the bastard with one heart left out of the 3 you start out with (soul.) Then an angel shot me.
[–]bobbobzinsky 13 points14 points15 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Yes that would have counted as beating the chest with ??? I know the feeling, the same thing happened to me on Isaac on my first time fighting him
[–]Monthral[S] 13 points14 points15 points 2 years ago (0 children)
[–]leXDlol 3 points4 points5 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Also, I don't think that it counts as killing him if an angle fetus killed you. I think you have to win the boss battle.
[–]Monthral[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Yeah that's why I'm angry, that goes for any boss battle if you dont kill the minions

Prospective Students
WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR: I am always interested in working with new motivated and curious students. I am currently accepting both Honours and Masters CHYS students next year, and I will be continuing my policy of considering MA and PhD Psychology applicants (Psychology applicants should contact me prior to applying). What do I look for in a student? Most importantly, I look for integrity. Research is all about trust, so it is essential that a student and supervisor are able to have confidence in each others' work. The next thing I look for is curiosity. Research can be hard work, but if you're really curious, it makes it seem a lot less like work and a lot more like fun. Curiosity is what really motivates good research, so it's not surprising that I look for it in my students. Lastly, I look for indicators of hard work, like good grades, GRE scores (not required but I'll look at them if you have them), good references, etc. Generally speaking, I will consider students from Child Studies, Psychology, Biology, and Anthropology programs, although any keen and capable applicants are welcome to apply.
WHAT YOU SHOULD BE LOOKING FOR: Most graduate students your choice of supervisor will largely determine what you can study, how you can study it, how enjoyable your experience is, how much you'll learn, what kinds of research and travel opportunities you'll have, and what kind of C.V. you will build. I strongly encourage prospective students to interview their potential supervisor as much as they are interviewed by the supervisor. Do you have similar ideas of research? Who gets authorship of papers? Do other students like working in their lab? Do they publish work with other students? I'm happy to answer these, or any other questions, you might have about potentially working with me. As for the setting, Brock is a thriving university with strong graduate studies. My home department is wonderfully diverse, and full of great supervisors and opportunities. As an associate member, I work closely with members of the strong psychology department we have here (this means I can supervise Psyc students as well as CHYS) and I really love the Niagara region (60 minutes from 5 major cities, with over 5 million people, but tons of parks, tourist locations, wineries, etc.).
WHAT KIND OF PROJECTS CAN A STUDY WORK ON IN MY LAB? Students generally have a lot of freedom to work on topics that they are interested in, but here are some of the potential topics for students to work on in my lab (italicized projects are for graduate students only):
1. Bullying in Dominica - studying bullying in a rural Caribbean village, analyzing existing data 2. Sport bullying - studying bullying in extracurricular activities, analyzing existing data 3. Six Nations parenting and bullying - conducting focus groups and research on parenting and bullying in Six Nations (aboriginal students most welcome!), analyzing existing data 4. Infant facial cues - examining the influence of various infant facial cues on adults' parental behavior 5. Environment of Evolutionary Adaptedness - conducting theoretical, anthropological, and historical surveys of the human past 6. Evolution of Bullying - studying bullying from an evolutionary perspective 7. Bullying and Psychopathy - studying the relationship between psychopathic traits and bullying 8. Parenting and Child Development - one of my primary interests is parenting, so I'm open to studying general topics related to parenting and its influence on child development If any of these projects sound of interest to you, please feel free to contact me for more information. As I mentioned, I'm usually open to new ideas, so feel free to pitch me any interesting ideas you may have for working in my lab. Finally, while many of my students are Child and Youth Students, I can and do consider psychology students, usually MA or PhD candidates. I only ask that if you're interested in me as a psychology supervisor rather than CHYS, you give me a heads-up first.
Created on ... November 2012

11 Common Web Use Cases Solved in Redis. In How to take advantage of Redis just adding it to your stack Salvatore 'antirez' Sanfilippo shows how to solve some common problems in Redis by taking advantage of its unique data structure handling capabilities.
Common Redis primitives like LPUSH, and LTRIM, and LREM are used to accomplish tasks programmers need to get done, but that can be hard or slow in more traditional stores. A very useful and practical article. Neo4j: NOSQL For the Enterprise. Luke Melia » Redis in Practice: Who's Online? Redis is one of the most interesting of the NOSQL solutions.
It goes beyond a simple key-value store in that keys' values can be simple strings, but can also be data structures. Redis currently supports lists, sets and sorted sets. This post provides an example of using Redis' Set data type in a recent feature I implemented for Weplay, our social youth sports site. The End Result. Try Redis.

On Redis, Memcached, Speed, Benchmarks and The Toilet. The internet is full of things: trolls, awesome programming threads, p0rn, proofs of how cool and creative the human beings can be, and of course crappy benchmarks.
In this blog post I want to focus my attention to the latter, and at the same time I'll try to show how good methodology to perform a benchmark is supposed to be, at least from my point of view. Why speed matters? Choosing innodb_buffer_pool_size. November 3, 2007 by Peter Zaitsev39 Comments My last post about Innodb Performance Optimization got a lot of comments choosing proper innodb_buffer_pool_size and indeed I oversimplified things a bit too much, so let me write a bit better description.
Innodb Buffer Pool is by far the most important option for Innodb Performance and it must be set correctly. Storing hundreds of millions of simple key-value pairs in Redis. Sharding & IDs at Instagram. Shard (database architecture) Some data within a database remains present in all shards,[notes 1] but some only appears in a single shard.
Each shard (or server) acts as the single source for this subset of data.[1] A heavier reliance on the interconnect between servers[citation needed]Increased latency when querying, especially where more than one shard must be searched. [citation needed]Data or indexes are often only sharded one way, so that some searches are optimal, and others are slow or impossible. [clarification needed]Issues of consistency and durability due to the more complex failure modes of a set of servers, which often result in systems making no guarantees about cross-shard consistency or durability.
