Originally posted by jazz.be no your not missing the point at all. it is hard to "define" "us" "mmo gamers" but my entire point is that it WOULD be less hard IMO to: create a features list > Take polls and voting > and use math and other logical methods to begin to "break down" playstyles >to then gain insight into "what would be a great game to make (for that catagory of playstyle) |
Developers need to realize that what players want and what makes players want to play are not the same thing.
Now playing FFXIV:ARR and GW2 |

m m unIt's hard to reach a consensus especially here where everyone thinks only their wants are the right way to make an MMORPG and that they speak for the vast but silent majority.There is no discussion when all there is is extremists yelling at each other....Look at the U.S congress and senate for example 8D

Originally posted by GeezerGamer damn, thats actually a very nice quote you have on your hands there Gamer. and i agree, if i follow you correctly it seems to be about the deeper reasons for character progression (and why we play games) vs. say the in game mechanics for HOW you progress? |
Originally posted by unkillable9 Play EVE-Online , problem solved. :) |
Thinking this a bit more,pretty sure theres many of you who played paper and pen role playing games,how did we do it back then ? threres no way to improve that ,sending a ticket to GM would be a lot worse than saying it to him or opening some thread in the web page. Maybe it is time to go back to this genres roots,i say welcome to live events right now. |

i tried multpile times, just dont find clicking UI and watching somthing pew pew on auto attack my idea of immersing/ engaging combat in an MMO game... i tried |
Originally posted by Icewhite Of course you can ask that, and ill answer the question. the idea i am trying to propose would be more suited as a website, a full featured website, not a thread here where people will just shit all over my intentions. i wanted to get feedback from you guys to see if you all thought it might be an idea worth investing in and eventually making. |
Originally posted by unkillable9 "Dear Developers, we as the gaming community are unified in all wanting different things. Please design a game for us, thanks." I'm not trying to be an ass, but the fact is that most of us want different things, most of which are on opposite sides of the spectrum. For example, i want an MMO that has no PvP whatsoever. I'm guessing there are tons of people that don't want the same thing. We are not aligned and never will be.

Originally posted by Threatlevel0 Is that a rethorical question? Meaning I completely missed the point? To me there is no WE. And if there is no WE it's hard to answer expectations, or comminucate with one voice. A lot of players are actually having fun. |
Originally posted by unkillable9 Why not here, an already established MMORPG forum? "I want to get feedback from you guys here if I should make a new MMORPG website where you guys here won't shit on my intentions." Admittedly, I giggled. I'm not shitting on anything though. |
Originally posted by Icewhite can you elaborate on the part where you said "sure" because i dont think making a website is that far out of an expense to someone like myself that is employed...with a job. |

I believe we communicate what we want extremely well. I believe the problem lies in the belief that every single feature we want is the features every single other person wants and that it is feasible to put all of these ideas into one game where every single gamer will be happy forever. An example of how we have communicated what we want and got it: penalty light death. It was asked for by the community and it was delivered in games such as WoW. But this comes to the other point I made. Some gamers hate light death penalties. And they have communicated that. Hence games such as Darkfall listened. And so now is the crux of the problem: There cannot be a single game that contains both of those features in an organic way. Therefore, we are blessed and doomed at the same time. If enough people communicate what they want, they will receive it. But at the same time they will receive other features they didn't want; because people communicated a wish for those features as well. We will always have games which have a mix of features we want and we don't want. The magic happens when the game has more of the features we personally have asked for and less of the features people with differing opinions asked for. Let me make this clear. We got solo content in games because we communicated that. We got group content in games because we communicated that. We got accessible raids because we asked for it. We got inaccessible raids because we asked for it. We got dynamic content because we asked for it. We got almost every feature in one game or another we have ever asked for. But if you want ONE game that has every feature you have asked for, you need to make it yourself. And realize, every feature you ever wanted is not the feature every other gamer wants - and you will not monopolize the industry. You want harsh death penalties? Someone won't. You want solo content? Someone won't. You want intricate crafting? Someone else won't. Want f2p or b2p? someone else will want a sub. At the end of the day, I think the lesson really should be; becareful what you ask for. |
Originally posted by unkillable9 Okay, presumably no one is stopping you, given that it's so cheap and easy. Carry on? Self-pity imprisons us in the walls of our own self-absorption. The whole world shrinks down to the size of our problem, and the more we dwell on it, the smaller we are and the larger the problem seems to grow. |
Originally posted by jazz.be No, sorry, that's just me really early in the morning. But I do believe there is a WE, there is always a WE. You can't really justify saying there is no WE because to you there is no WE. Football fans for example are a WE. They may not all like the same teams and be diametrically opposed (wait...wtf diametrically....) but they're a WE. They cheer for different teams but they all enjoy the sport. Serouisly, morning, I'm not sure if that makes sense at all. |

Hardin Valley STEM camp offers lessons in math, science, fun
Camp offers lessons in math, science, fun
To determine who cut into the shark first, sixth-graders Elijah Balent and Paul Pitcher decided a game of "paper, rock, scissors" was appropriate.
Elijah won and got to make the first incision.
"I was really excited," he said after learning he'd get to dissect a shark as part of Hardin Valley Academy's annual STEM Camp.
All week about 70 second- through seventh-graders have been exploring and learning about science, technology, engineering and math through fun hands-on activities and experiments.
Each day of the week has had a different focus — math, science, technology, engineering and health science — and students have done everything from building rockets and launching them to dissecting a dogfish shark.
Debbie Sayers, a chemistry teacher at Hardin Valley, said the point of the camp is to get the students interested in math and science early.
"It's that whole idea that if you capture their interests early, then that keeps them in it, keeps them wanting to learn more," she said. "That's the main goal ... to light that fire in kids. We do things to encourage them athletically, and I think we also need to do that academically to build up that nerd that's in all of us and to make that be cool."
Sayers said it was exciting to see the students' faces this week as they participated in the various activities.
"All of these fields, you get to do stuff and you get to see stuff and you get to explore," she said. "So it's high interest for children anyway because they want to know about their world, but I think sometimes we take that away from them."
Sixth-grader Madeline McInturff enjoys science and attended the camp for the second year in a row.
She said when she found out they were going to dissect a shark, she hoped it wouldn't smell.
"That would have grossed me out a little bit, but I was like 'Oh, cool,' " the 11-year-old said. "I thought it was going to be a bigger shark."
And after she finally got to cut the shark open and start exploring, Madeline said, "it wasn't so gross" after all.

If I remember correctly, the guy has a technique that has been shown effective in mice. Still hardly a guarantee it'll work in humans, but it's a start. Part of it has to do with a clean cut, rather than trauma, severing the code.

Hard To Say Goodbye LyricsArtist: XscapeAlbum: Off The Hook Time has been short since you left me, So I can't help but think, Of how things between us used to be. You were a piece of my heart, And I thought we were swell, Until you told me you were leaving, To find a better life for yourself. Oh I... Chorus: I wish we were together again, Loving the way we used to love, Boy I miss you much. I wish we were together again, Oh how I'm missing you, It's so hard for me to say goodbye. Verse Two (Kandi): You know that I love you, And for you there ain't nothing in this world, That I won't do. If you would only come back to me, And let me show you how loving me could be. Bridge: (Tiny): I, I've got feelings, But you act like you don't care, You treat me so unfair. (Tamika): Love has no meaning, Since you walked right out my life. You've touched a part of me, Can't you see that I'm in need of you? Repeat Chorus to fade

DEFINITION of 'Held To Maturity Security'
Accounting standards necessitate that companies classify any investments in debt or equity securities when they are purchased. The investments can be classified as held to maturity, held for trading or available for sale. A held to maturity security is a debt or equity security that is purchased with the intention of holding the investment to maturity. This type of security is reported at amortized cost on a company's financial statements and is usually in the form of a debt security with a specific maturity date.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Held To Maturity Security'
Unlike held for trading securities, temporary price changes are not shown in accounting statements for held to maturity securities. Since stocks do not have a maturity date, they cannot be classified as held to maturity securities. The interest income received from a held to maturity security is run through the income statement, however the gains and losses go through comprehensive income until it is realized.

Hurwitz determinant
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Hurwitz determinants)
In mathematics, Hurwitz determinants were introduced by Adolf Hurwitz (1895), who used them to give a criterion for all roots of a polynomial to have negative real part.
Let us consider a characteristic polynomial P in the variable λ of the form:
where , , are real.
The square Hurwitz matrix associated to P is given below:
The ith Hurwitz determinant is the determinant of the ith principal minor of the above Hurwitz matrix H. There are n Hurwitz determinants for a characteristic polynomial of degree n.

The incident happened around 3:40 p.m. Tuesday in the 6000 block of Traux Road in Central Point, according to a press release from the Jackson County Sheriff's office.
A witness identified Andrew Caucutt, 24, of Central Point as the a passenger in a red 1993 BMW 3 Series car, sheriff officials say.
They allege Caucutt pulled out a small caliber handgun and fired it at home, according to a press release. The vehicle then fled west toward Central Point.
Deputies are now looking for Caucutt. They have searched several residences that he is associated with. Deputies also are looking for the car; it has Oregon plates that read 385 BSD and chrome rims.
If you have information about Caucutt or the car, call the sheriff's office at (541) 774-6800.

On a cold winter's day in February, what you need to eat is a stew. You could make one with meat, vegetables and stock. A simple stew like that would be delicious, but on certain days you need to push the boat out a little and not hold back on the red wine. On days like that a rich beef bourguignon is the stew to go for. I read somewhere that a real bourguignon doesn't contain any stock, just red wine, and so that's what I've gone for here. Thanks to Tesco, my trusty food and drink supplier.
The key to a good bourguignon is not to skimp on the wine. I have to admit that I rarely use quite as much wine as this. Normally I use a little bit, about a glassful. After all, we want to have the rest of the bottle to enjoy with the meal. This time I went to the other extreme pouring half the bottle into the pan and saving just a large glass each to enjoy with the meal. At least I wasn't cooking for more people, then there would have been none left!
The bourguignon itself is rich and tasty. The bacon, beef and mushrooms are a perfect match for all that red wine and you'll be tempted to lick the plate. Although I did just cook this at home for me and my husband, it would be a perfect meal to serve for friends too as you can prepare it in advance and just heat it up to serve. Like lots of stews, it's even more tasty the next day.
Ingredients – Serves 2
300g beef
2 rashers of thick smoked bacon, diced
150g mushrooms, cut in half
About 8 shallots, peeled but left whole
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tbsp tomato puree
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried rosemary
1 tsp dried parsley
1 bay leaf
400ml French red wine
How to Make Beef Bourguignon
1. Heat a little oil in an ovenproof saucepan and brown the meat on both sides. Remove the meat from the pan.
2. Cook the bacon until it is browned and then add the mushrooms, shallots and garlic. Cook for another few minutes until it's beginning to brown then add the herbs, tomato puree and a dash of the red wine. Scrape the bottom of the pan so that any bits that are beginning to stick to the pan go back into the sauce.
3. Return the beef to the pan and top with enough red wine to just cover the contents. Bring to the boil and then put in the oven at 150C. Cook for three hours.
4. Take the pan out of the oven. If there is too much sauce, take the vegetables and meat out of the pan and boil the sauce to reduce. To keep the meat and vegetables warm, put them in another oven-proof container and return them to the oven until the sauce has reduced.
5. Serve with baked or mashed potatoes.

Take two: This post evaluates the concept of an infinite lapse/passage of time and concludes that an infinite lapse of time is impossible, which was proposed in the sixth century AD by John Philoponus. Likewise, models of cosmology that require infinitely lapsed time such as models of a genuinely cyclic universe or a multiverse with past eternal vacuum energy are impossible and unscientific. Modern day observation of a flat universe indicates that a flat universe endlessly ages and always has a finite age. For example, a flat universe has a potential infinite age and a continuously increasing finite age. Nothing ever stops the aging of the universe while the universe endlessly has a finite age. Despite a potential infinite age, an actual infinite age never occurs. The observed impossibility of an infinite lapse of time indicates the impossibility of infinitely lapsed time. Likewise, all scientific hypotheses of cosmology should exclude the possibility of infinitely lapsed time. For example, the technical definition of a "cyclic universe" implies an infinite number of past cycles. This indicates that the concept of a cyclic universe is unscientific, regardless of widely published papers in scientific journals about cyclic models. Other concepts widely published in scientific journals that require an unscientific infinitely lapsed time include "eternal inflation" with no beginning. Some scholars skirt around the impossibility of infinitely lapsed time and propose the philosophical concept of eternalism, which holds that future phenomena already exist. For example, the universe is uncaused with absolutely no distinction between the past, present, and future while all appearance of lapsed time and sequential events are an illusion. This concept of radical simultaneousness for all supposedly past, present, and future events disputes the impossibility of an apparent infinite lapse of time but at the expense of rejecting the concept of lapsed time. Also, rejecting the concept of lapsed time disputes every theory involving cause and effect, which includes the concept of scientific theory. In this case, perhaps nobody can disprove eternalism while the appearance of lapsed time is merely an illusion, but such philosophical theories are incompatible with the concept of science. My argument about the impossibility of infinitely lapsed time sometimes prompts debate about Zeno's fifth century BC paradoxes of infinity. Zeno pointed out problems with the concept of infinity while attempting to support the nonexistence of motion and change, which is still in vogue today with the philosophical eternalism mentioned above. For example, Zeno said that all apparently finite lengths such as a cubit are infinitely divisible and likewise nothing has actually traveled the length of a cubit. But this amusing paradox never explains observations of objects that travel a cubit. In sum, this post holds that the science of cosmology excludes impossible concepts such as infinitely lapsed time and limits itself to inference based on scientific observation.
I thought this was addressed already that the universe as per current observations will continue to expand infinitely that means infinite time.
Except it doesn't. It all depends upon the model. There is a time before which we can't say what occurred. But that doesn't mean that nothing occurred before then.
Hi Chalnoth, I never said that nothing happened before the big bang, but that there is no infinitely lapsed time. Likewise, models that require infinitely lapsed time such as eternal inflation with no beginning, a cyclic universe, [or] a non-zero Hamiltonian should not be considered scientific hypotheses. For example, this does not refute the concept of a multiverse with a beginning, which my original post never excluded.
James, I don't think I see the point of your argument. Just because an individual clock will never record an infinite time, does not mean an infinite past/future is impossible. For example, the concept of a spatially infinite universe is one that is considered, and I doubt too many people would say it is 'unscientific' or impossible. In an infinite universe, no measuring tape would be able to ever reach an infinite length, but that does not change the fact that the universe would be spatially infinite. So, if you want to totally reject the possibility of an infinite past/future on the basis that clocks always measure a finite time, you would also need to reject a spatially infinite universe. Also, if I began to count off numbers, I will always have counted a finite amount of numbers. But, this does not change the fact that there is an infinite amount of real numbers.
Hi Mark, A key to understanding this is to understand the difference of "actual" and "potential" that I noted in the third paragraph of the original post. For example, you understand that an individual clock will never tick and infinite number of ticks in a case where nothing ever bounds the ticking process. I understand that a flat universe will always expand and always be a finite universe, except for the possibility of a Big Rip that would keep the age of the universe finite but make the space infinite. My argument has no objection to a Big Rip making space infinite, but my argument objects to continuous expansion turning into infinite space. We agree on this. I never challenged the concept that there is an infinite amount of real numbers.
Hi HallsofIvy, I rarely if ever use the adjective "unbounded" in a mathematical sentence, but that might work. However, I used the adverb "infinitely" and I see no adverb for "unbounded." I guess since I have not used "unbounded" in many sentences I needed to consider it in a few. For example, Are the two following phrases the same? 1. "an infinite number of ticks on a clock? 2. "an unbounded number of ticks on a clock"
James, A flat universe does not necessarily have to finite, it can go either way. I wasn't trying to argue about the size of the universe - I was trying to make the point that since you state that the fact a clock will never measure an infinite amount of seconds is an argument against a universe with an infinite past, we also apply this to say 'Since a measuring device will never measure an infinite amount of feet, an infinite distance is impossible, and hence a spatially infinite universe is impossible'. So, your argument requires you to reject the possibility of an infinite universe, too. I wasn't trying to prove there is an infinite amount of real numbers - that is obvious. The point I am trying to show is that even though only a finite quantity of numbers can be counted, there is truly an infinite amount of numbers. Similarly, although an infinite amount of time can never be elapsed by a clock, an infinite time can exist. I understand the basis of your argument - since no observer can measure an infinite amount of time, there can not exist an infinite past. But here's my problem with that reasoning - a clock must beging ticking at some point - but in a universe with an infinite past, there is no beginning to count from. If we had a clock that ticked off time in reverse (it traveled back through time) it would coninue to measure more and more time, and similar to the way you said that an infinite future is possible via 'potential infinity', we could say the universe is 'potentially infinite' in the past.
Hi Mark, This analogy is problematic. For example, I do not object to an infinite number of time coordinates or an infinite number of space coordinates. But I am specifically referring to elapsed time and I unsure of what in space compares to elapsed time. The closest comparison that I can think of is gradually expanding space. If that is the comparison, then finite space will never gradually grow into infinite space. But an instantaneous Big Rip into infinite space sounds interesting to explore. I agree that if a clock could tick in reverse then "the universe is 'potentially infinite' in the past just as elapsed time in the observed universe is potentially infinite in the future. I also understand your problem that an actual infinite past chronology would have no starting point, but that is part of my point. If that were the case, then no matter how far back we would go in that time, then there always would be infinite past chronology. You apparently indicate that if time travel were possible then a time traveler could never travel an infinite chronology of time. I suppose that such time could exist only if the entire infinite timeline always existed, which would mean that all future phenomena has always existed and makes observation of cause and effect meaningless.
So, your opposition is to an infinitely long chain of causality, because it would require that time always existed. Correct?
Hi Mark, No, I never argued against an infinite chain of causality in the case of a finite elapse of time in a continuum, if that were possible. My argument refutes the possibility of an infinite chain of causality in a time lattice but possibly not in a finite time continuum. Zeno would never let me get away with that one.
It sounds to me that all you have established james is that a universe infinite/unbounded in time must be cyclical and their will be a time 'horizon' in the past beyond which nothing can be known to inhabitants of that universe. While I agree this has many of the outward appearances of finite time it is not quite the same thing. Again changing to a spacial infinity is a useful analogy, in infinite space their must inevitably be an infinite number of exact copies of ourselves as all possible configurations of matter and energy are repeated. Move far enough and space appears to loop back like the Arcade game Asteroids, but you might also describe it as repeating forever like wall-paper both interpretations are equally valid and in truth are BOTH correct as nothing could ever distinguish between them.
Hi Impaler, I am not looking at merely time coordinates but elapsed time. These are two different things. I agree with you that there are no limits to time coordinates that are independent of phenomena.
And what qualifies time as "elapsed"? Because I'm pretty sure that even if the current elapsed time is finite, the indefinite future of our universe would lead to an infinite elapsed time.
The OP does not contain an argument at all, instead each sentence basically asserts using different words, that 'the universe can't be past eternal'. Not very convincing! Now, there is a debate in academic circles whether this is true or not (see recent papers by Vilenkin and Susskind), but its actually a relatively nontrivial question to answer.
Please elaborate on the distinction between time coordinates and elapsed time. It sounds to me like your making a distinction between 'ticks' on a clock (time coordinates) and some kind of more 'true' time that can be said to have an elapsed period greater then what the clock can measure? If this is the case then I disagree with the existence of the latter. Time is what we can measure with a clock (mechanical or biological) and a clock has a finite number of degrees-of-freedom aka bits of data it can hold which means it can only measure a finite amount of time before it rolls over establishing a finite past time-horizon measurement/history. This change in the degrees-of-freedom of a system IS time in my interpretation, and if done in such a way as to create a history of that change then by definition we have a clock. Their can't be any view of time from outside of time, just as their can be no view of space from outside of space.
Hi Chalnoth, you do not understand infinity. For example, a flat universe with an incomplete past will never age an infinite number of Planck times. For example, after the elapse of a googolplex raised to the googolplexth power of Planck times, then the universe would not be close to an age of an infinite number of Planck times.
I understand infinity just fine. If there's an infinite future, then there will be an infinite elapsed time. End of story. It will take an infinite amount of time to get there, but that is of no consequence. It still destroys your argument, even if no observer within our universe can be around to witness it.
I'll have a try at it. elapsed time = t1 - t0 If t1 is +∞, then elapsed time is also +∞, even if t0 is an actual value instead of -∞.

MOVIE REVIEW:Cashback
I've seen a lot of b-side movies but this one took me for complete
surprise. I haven't seen a movie that combined comedy, fantasy and
drama with such elegance and perfection. Comedy is superb, the story
was believable and I have to admit I didn't mind the nudity at all.
Anyone who has any feeling at all about making right and wrong choices
with girlfriends/boyfriends will understand the main character very
easily. Supporting cast is excellent as well, don't we all have at
least one friend like this?
Although there is a lot of nudity it is done very classy. This movie
reminds me of "to kill a mockingbird" in that the experiences seem so
simple and real they probably are. If you are one that usually doesn't
stray from the mainstream this one will make you a believer that there
are more great movies out there than just the ones you see trailers for
during the commercials. A must see.
Sean Ellis has made 'Cashback' right from the heart. This is quite
evident in the sincerity and passion behind the writing and
storytelling. 'Cashback' is very much about the common young citizen
but at the same time Ellis brings magic to it. We see Ben as an
ordinary art student moonlighting at a supermarket and then we see how
he views the world, how he perceives beauty, in the supermarket, in the
female body and pretty much anything else, while his male co-workers
are fooling around playing pranks, chattering about shagging
and…killing time. Ellis also brings a lot of philosophy and irony
into the movie. I very much agree that one shouldn't look at the
clock/watch when they're bored.
There's plenty of nudity in 'Cashback' but nothing vulgar and much of
it is necessary to demonstrate Ben's perspective of beauty (while
providing eye candy for the viewer). If the nudity helps pull a crowd
then all the better because the viewer's definitely in for a great film
Sean Biggerstaff is splendid as Ben Willis. He definitely fits the
ordinary young lad look and plays Ben very naturally, with restraint.
Emilia Fox is excellent as the luminous Sharon. It's a pity one doesn't
get to see this actress in more movies. The rest of the cast are
On the technical side, the music is very fitting and the special
effects are terrific. Cinematography is superb and the editing is as
sharp as it should be.
I didn't know what to expect from 'Cashback'. I had read that it was a
comedy and the stills and poster gave me the impression that it was
probably a sex comedy but, as mentioned earlier, this movie turned out
to be a wonderful surprise.
Male teens grow up wanting to see bare boobs. Then they want to see the
other things. Then they want to touch those things. We all know what
they want after that.
And, meanwhile, men preen, they brag, they lie and they pretend. They
can and do embarrass and humiliate girls. Men fail to pick up on
serious clues from girls that could reward them in a big way.
Men are so lost.
Oh, but what if you can freeze time and take girls' clothes off. But
that's about two minutes of the movie. If you want that, you'll get
short shrift.
This gives us writer/director Sean Ellis' snapshot of young British men
and women who are connecting on every possible level, good and bad.
meaningful and stupid, but mostly for naught because … well because
they are young and stupid.
If your heart was ever broken before your heart was even ready to be
seriously broken, chances are you will see it here.
This is, bottom line, the portrait of the artist as a young British
man. Trying to deal with women, he stumbles through the whole movie in
a state of confusion.
Finally, at the end, he's figuring things out.
We are so there with him.
You can expect to find good insights about love, people and break-ups
while watching 2006's Cashback.
Although I'd never seen actor Sean Biggerstaff ( the story's main
character ) before I'm very much looking forward to seeing him in the
future. As a matter of fact it's an all new cast for me. Cashback is a
regular type story with an interesting mechanic and for guys who just
want to see some T n' A don't worry, there's also a healthy dose of
chicks naked.
All in all: A romantic drama with an artistic feel.
P.S. I love it in the credits when they show the actor's faces along
with their names.

TOKYO: Thousands of farmers rallied in Tokyo on Wednesday against an Pacific-wide free trade pact as Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda's prepares for a visit to the United States.
Noda had reportedly been looking to announce Japan would become a full-fledged participant in talks on framing the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) during his trip to Washington next week.
But fierce opposition, including from within his own party, means he is unlikely to be able to give Barack Obama the good news on a pact the US president has pushed, partially as a way to counterbalance China's growing economic might.
Government spokesman Osamu Fujimura said Wednesday any announcement on Japan's participation in talks aimed at abolishing tariffs and other barriers was "premature".
Japan's Central Union of Agricultural Cooperatives (Zenchu) has campaigned vigorously against participation, saying a deal would reduce food security in a country where farmers -- especially of rice -- enjoy generous government protection, paid for by sky-high consumer prices.
"Abolishing tariffs without exceptions and reviewing regulations means that the pact forces us to fight unarmed against the United States and Australia, where farms are huge," said Akira Banzai, the chairman of Zenchu.
"If we accept more liberalisation (of trade in farm products), we will be badly damaged," Bandai told an applauding crowd of farmers from all over the country who had gathered in a park in the centre of the capital.
"The TPP is not a minor issue that can be treated as a present" to Obama on Noda's trip to the United States, he said.
Major businesses, academics and mainstream media have long pushed Tokyo to join the deal, which they say will improve access to foreign markets and boost regional trade and investment.
Australia, Brunei, Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States and Vietnam are already signed up to take part in negotiations towards the deal.
Noda's November announcement that Japan would dip its toe in the talks sparked a rush of interest in what could become the biggest free trade zone in the world, accounting for 40 percent of global economic output.
The pact is a key plank of Washington's bid to engage with the fast-growing Asia-Pacific region, and the participation of Japan, the world's third largest economy, is seen as vital to its credibility.
Japan's exporters struggling under the weight of a stubbornly strong yen are eager for Tokyo to sign up, hoping greater access to foreign markets will help make up for the shrinking and greying population at home.
But the tens of thousands of ageing farmers who make up the backbone of Japan's countryside and form a powerful voting block are largely opposed, and say the TPP poses an existential threat to the country's way of life.
Kiyoko Tabata, 63, who runs a small rice farm in Wakayama, western Japan, said: "Protecting small-sized farmers means protecting communities in the countryside."

Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk
It's possible. The temp thing is separate - not about the ProVape.
24 watts and a new display is within the realm of feasible...and Joe Blow knows people who know people, so maybe he got some info...
I dunno.
I'm curious about the little things - size, shape, finishes, top-caps, battery configurations, compatibility...god knows I don't want to start another beauty ring collection!
Without a sensor you could simply enter the coil gauge and number of coils. The device would detect the resistance and come up with the coil surface area on its own. From there it would be a calculation based on wattage being spread out over the surface area, resulting in an estimated heat range. You could have presets for your builds. Select your 28ga, 1.5ohm single coil preset and choose the temperature range for the type of juice you will be vaping. After all, wattage doesn't create vapor, but heat does.
All speculation, but Provape seems to be pretty conservative. I'd guess maybe different engraving on the tube. Maybe just adding a "3". Minimal expense on their part if they can drop a new board into the existing design. Plus they can sell board upgrades. Add VW, a slight power increase (slight because the components have to fit onto the current board footprint), and maybe an extra display digit. Don't think there's big changes afoot. Not like they're gonna screw up a good thing and release a box mod.
Just from a business standpoint, say your company is growing by manufacturing and selling a product that the critics are saying is outdated. So you come up with a new design that's current, but it costs 50 bucks more. You're already at the high end of the price scale for what it is. Would it make sense to drop a product that's in demand for an even more expensive one - rather than offer people who don't need those new added features a lower cost alternative?
Provape has a very simple business model. They make a safe, reliable, high quality product - and back it up with excellent customer support. They're not trying to appeal to the cloud chasing crowd, so they don't need to double the device's output. Just having what's considered the indusrty standard feature set, a little more power, and superior build quality and reliability is going to sell the v3.
They've also become their own worst enemy - because what they currently make is so good. They've got to watch the cost of the v3, or it won't sell. And if they cut corners to hold down the cost (like making it out of aluminum, or thinner stainless) they'd probably have a near revolt from the current customer base. After all, if I order a v3 it better be as nice as my previous ProVari.
So about all that leaves is an updated product that continues to do what its always done. Nothing radically different - these guys aren't very radical.
