The goal is to have a bunch of different playable animals in We Of The Woods.
Each will have different goals and survival mechanics. Can't get much more different than a giant spider

It's quite fun to work on two games at once. It can provide some relief to switch projects when things are a bit busy. A palette cleanser, so to speak. Especially when switching from a VR game like SuperMegaMega.
So I've spent some more time working on another team project called We Of The Woods recently. It's quite a fun project to play with. Procedural generation is one of my favourite things these days and the entire world is generated fresh each time it's played.
One of the things the game has been lacking is any form of decent AI for the animals populating the world. The main reason being there was no knowledge of the collisions or paths available.
So it's obvious what had to be done first:
The nav grid is being re-generated whenever the player moves a specified distance. This should let the animals navigate through the colliders easier, giving the appearance of intelligence. Hunting should also feel better if the animals react properly to encountering a wall. Currently they just turn around and run the other direction but don't consider where the player is coming from.
Now the navigation works it should just be a matter of tweaking some reaction behaviours for each of the animal types. The goal is to make them react convincingly when being chased by a wolf or bear….
fun fun!
Playing Transistor Newgame+
My first attempt at recording a game play-through. Kinda cool, even just for my own memories!
Probably need some voice over commentary…..
Watch live video from bluntgames on TwitchTV
So once again it's been far too long since I wrote a devlog… mainly because I haven't had anything to say! But also because I've been very busy on other projects and going to GDC and moving house/office.
Now things have settled down, development can kick back into gear. Super Mega Mega is coming up to a cool point in development. The core of the coding is done and the majority of work now lies in content generation.
I'm currently working on getting a more complete, playable version of the game ready to demo and get feedback on. I might even release this one publicly.
The game has evolved to be an interesting blend of games like MegaMan, Zelda and The Binding of Isaac. I want a highly replay-able, short session experience that works both with and without VR.
Now comes the point where the real game design stuff needs to be sorted… I'm hoping to have a version working well for the upcoming Beer & Pixels event… but I'm not sure I'll have the time. I really need to get some feedback on this soon! Game design is not my strong suit…..yet! I'm going to have to focus and knuckle down to pull something cool out here. A challenge!
Working on We Of The Woods… some new screens…
Flappy Jam complete!
Made a new game in a couple of days with Aaron and the Robomuffin crew. (Same guys from the recent GGJ24)
Pretty much just for fun…
Get it here or on google play
I thought I'd write a few notes on this past weekends game jam… Firstly, I think it was a huge success!
Play it here and tell me what you think.
Going into the event I had never worked with anyone in the team. It was a lot more art heavy than I had previously worked with and this really showed up in the look and sound of the game.
As for programming it was great to work with someone that knew their way around Unity. We naturally divided the tasks without any real discussion. It was great to be able to rely on someone getting cool stuff into the game whilst I was working on something else. Ended up being quite productive for the short time we had.
What else can I say about the art guys…? Amazing art and animation and sounds/music! Didn't really need to debug any art issues or help them out. They all knew their stuff really well.
The main thing we might have needed to improve on would be having a more solid design driver. One person making the design decisions to try and keep the concept solid in at least one persons head
We didn't get time to implement a few features that would have changed the game a fair amount but that's to be expected with such a limited time.
Hopefully we get to do some more work on it and see where it goes.
Good fun! Looking forward to next time.
Revisiting randomness
My recent work on SuperMegaMega has revolved around figuring out a lot of the desired game play and story.
Part of that process has led me back to considering procedural generation again.
I want to have a game that won't require massive play sessions but is still appealing each time it's played. The sense of progression is also important.
For examples of this I have been playing a lot of the recent roguelike evolutions that have become popular.
Some of them use random content in a way that is still very controlled. For example "The Binding of Isaac" uses a large set of hand made rooms (over 1000) that are chosen from as building blocks for the larger level layouts. "Rogue Legacy" does a similar thing too whilst Spelunky uses a more fine-grained version but it's essentially the same idea.
So now SMM is using this pattern with its own twist. Pre made rooms and structures give more control over the player experience. The main restriction is all the rooms are based around a cylindrical structure. As long as there are a shit load of variants to select from it will seem very random. Just need to make sure the quality level is maintained over the entire set of rooms.
The actual gaming loop is currently being experimented with. So far leaning towards using a permadeath system with unlockable weapons and events. Don't really know what will work until I get some more play testing done!
Lots of enemies,weapons,items and levels to make!
Also, my new phone is awesome! Note3 ftw
One thing I've been thinking about recently is motion sickness and VR. My wife tried the 'Titans Of Space' demo and got really sick in record time.
This really surprised me! I figured this demo was one of the easiest for first timers. Perhaps my perceptions of what has the potential to make someone sick is a bit out of whack.
I think it's important to try and minimise the barf inducing effects but I fear it's (at least partially) unavoidable.
Super Mega Mega has a pretty small percentage of people who feel sick I think. The one part I'm worried about is the screen-shake effect.
There are lots of technical things I've read and acted upon and I don't want to repeat them here but it's certainly a potential wall between VR tech going mainstream. At least it seems the consumer version of the Rift will be targeting a much lower latency… which could fix most of the problems and make everyone happy. Games just need to keep up their end of the bargain.
Anyways I think I've decided to have an options menu to allow the potential chunder busters to be switched off. That should hopefully cater to most people.
Back to work! Hoping to have a new playable demo available in the next 2-3 weeks. It all depends on how much time I get to work on it.

I'm not involved in any direct way with any client regarding the proposed 120 MW Conal plant in Sarangani. But we have an obligation to our practice to try and keep up with what's happening. So I grabbed the ERC Filing for approval of the Electric Sales Agreement (ESA) with SOCOTECO II and created a quick model of the pricing.
This is not guaranteed to be correct. The purpose here is to investigate and try to understand the pricing mechanisms and price levels implicit in the market offer. I've taken a few minor shortcuts. You're welcome to download the model here and take a look, if you care to dig into it yourself. Comments and observations of errors are welcome, of course.
Some items have to be forecast, like future coal prices and inflation, among others. I've put in a scenario for those. Some contractually-specified parameters are not disclosed in the ERC filing. I've made seat-of-the pants estimates of those.

Forget Engagement. Think "Ownership"
Filed under: Behavioral Economics,Downloads,Employee Engagement,Employee Recognition,Human Resources,MBlog,Management,Operations,Recruit & Retain
The economic rationale for non-cash reward and recognition programs is predicated on increased employee engagement, which in turn has been proven to increase business performance. Engaged employees are more productive, more customer focused and, as a result, more profitable.
Business leaders want engaged workforces, but they struggle to articulate how an engaged employee will better their business in recognizable terms. My take on that is simple: I see an engaged employee as an owner. They don't take the risk of course. They don't invest the capital and they don't need to answer to stock holders, but they are as focused and committed to the business's success as any owner is. In other words, an engaged employee doesn't think of their job as a place where they go, or a thing that they do. They think of it as their business. They are owners.
Today's talent-dependent working situations don't have much use for workers who are only comfortable following set routines. Businesses need employees who have both the capability and the desire to respond to the wide range of opportunities and challenges they deal with on a day-in, day-out basis. They need to own every issue or situation as if it will make or break the business. Ask yourself, who is more likely to do that? Someone who sees their job defined in the narrowest of ranges, or an employee who thinks like an owner?
Getting employees to make the migration from an employee who is merely enthusiastic, to one that is heavily involved, to one who takes complete ownership delivering on your mission and values is what Madison does better than anyone. Guided by the science of behavioral economics, our solutions employ tailored communications, incremental goal setting and effective rewards systems to get your employees to move beyond engagement and become your business's co-owners.

I use and love Temptu S/B...
1. Why are you mixing these? Use the primer straight to prime the skin. Use the mixing medium when you want to 'make' a new paint color, using pigments or something like that.
2. I don't actually 'mix' these, I lay the concealer directly onto the face, focusing on the under eye area. You can mix a drop of S/B Foundation into the concealer if you want, but, I never do...
3. I never, ever, ever thin down my S/B and it runs through my gun just fine.. I spray at a comfortable PSI for the face.. I never know exactly what PSI it is because my compressor doesn't have numbers on it.. its a little less then half way to full pressure for the face.. I only turn up the PSI for the body.
5. When you get really used to airbrushing, you'll know how much foundation to put in the cup so that when the foundation is done, the cup will be empty. Until that happens, you can just empty the cup/spray through the foundation shade until empty. Then just go right in with your contour shade. Spray on a paper towel until your contour color starts to come out... then contour. Do the same with blush. If you need to, you can run just a few drops of cleaner between shades... but only if needed.
6. I'll work an entire day, sometimes 5 - 6 hours or so before I actually get to cleaning it. Just drop some s/b cleaner into your cup to keep it 'wet' until you get a chance to run it through.. I find the s/b doesn't really clog too easily.. it is when you use alcohol based products (Temptu DURA) that you have to watch it more closely. At the end of the day, I'll use some Nurturing Force Airbrush cleanser to really clean out my gun.. run it through, then run through water until it runs clean.
7. P.S. Keep your silicone based (S/B) products far away from your alcohol based products as mixing the two will create a lovely cement and clog the sh*t outta your gun! I have two separate guns completely (one for silicone, one for alcohol based -I use alcohol based on the body when a longer wear is needed).
Hope that helps!
It's how I was taught - I've tried variations but invariably come back to using the main foundation color to bring the face together and ready for blush, etc.
It's by no means the only or right way to apply airbrush foundation.
I know what you mean, I just would love to try it since you mentioned it. kind of one of those things i have to try...i may end up loving it...
Lisa, I tried this method yesterday morning with OCC and the result was absolutely LOVELY. The colors were blended beautifully and flawless! Thanks so much for your constant offering of knowledge. This is now going to be my main method for airbrush foundation/highlight/contour - hands down.
what shade did you use for contouring/highlighting...
Hope we're not moving too much OT, but for me - I use less product when the contour and highlight are down first. This speeds application - there - I found a way to stay sorta on one of the questions.....
Crush is my "go to" contour. It works with all but the darkest skin tones and is a nice neutral that doesn't "dirty up" the face. I'll occasionally use the darkest color in the range. Sometimes I'll have to add black adjuster. But 85% of the time it's Crush.
Highlighting is usually done with the "O" in the color range. I work on mostly pasty white girls....
My work is almost always for print.
OooOoo... I'll have to try that!
Did this again today (what I used on myself): Y0 to highlight, Crush to contour, Y3 for foundation and Gush for blush. I'm still in awe of the result. I highly suggest testing it out.
Lisa is absolutely right - it was a huge time-saver and I definitely used less foundation. And Also, to stay on topic, I didn't clean between colors - went from one shade to the next. Then ran water through the airbrush, two sprays of airbrush cleaner and another run of water. From start to finish it was approximately 5 mins and my airbrush is squeaky clean.
Thanks again, Lisa!
Thanks Lisa! I sure will be trying this today, quick question... Do you ever use concealer? I have use a few and I feel it leaves dry patches, what would you recommend when using OCC?
I use Temptu s/b, and here is the insight I can offer.
You do not immediately have to run cleaner through the brush as long as you are still using it. For example, if you have sprayed the foundation through, and now want to highlight, spray out the rest of the foundation color if any is left, immediately add highlight color, then apply to face (test on your hand or tissue to make sure the last color is completely gone). You can continue with that same method if following with separate blush color etc.
I try to run cleaner through the gun before leaving a job, but there have been times I am in a rush out the door, and don't have the chance. Its fine as long as you do when you arrive home.
Do not run the Temptu s/b primer through your gun. It is too thick for the gun and meant to be applied by hand/brush/sponge.
Dont bother with mixing medium unless you are making a pigment.
Regarding back bubbling, my airbrush teacher (independant from an airbrush brand) told me that can clog your gun. To mix colors, put a SMALL plastic spatula into the well and mix around.
You need to know how to take apart your gun for a thorough cleaning and put pack together. If you are having clogging problems, do this, its a fresh start.
For Temptu s/b, since its silicone based you can use 244 to clean the gun.
Dont use q tips or makeup brush to swish cleaner around in the well.
Good luck!
There's a lot of airbrush info in the FAQ's as well.... do you have a specific question?

Strathcona Cup 2013: Scotland vs Canada in Friendly Curling Competition
This January, Canadian curlers coast to coast will compete in a championship that brings Scottish teams across the Atlantic to battle – in friendly fashion – for curling supremacy. Plans are underway for the Strathcona Cup Tour 2013.
It's a tradition that started in 1902, when a resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting of the Royal Caledonia Curling Club supported sending 25 Scottish curlers to Canada for a friendly competition. The tour was such a success that the Canadians made a return visit in 1909, and the ongoing battle for the Strathcona Cup began.
For the 2013 tour, the wheels are already in motion.
"The Scots have selected the 60 curlers who will be coming to Canada," reports Hugh McCarrel, Canadian Chairman of the 2013 Strathcona Cup Tour. "They have been split into three tours of 20 and we received their CVs earlier this week. Bill Duncan, President of the RCCC, will be touring with the Scots and will be splitting his time equally among the tours."
The Scots arrive on January 9th and will attend opening banquets in Halifax, Ottawa, and Vancouver, representing the three tours – East, Central and West.
"For the first time, all ten provinces are included in the tour," says McCarrel. "The East tour after leaving Halifax, will head to St. John's, Newfoundland, for their first-ever visit."
The 2013 tour will wrap up with a closing banquet at the Burlington Golf and Country Club on January 31st.
The Strathcona Cup champion is determined based on the cumulative results of all the games played, in this case, 434 games in over 100 Clubs. McCarrel reports that over 1,700 Canadians will participate as opposition and hosts for the Scots.
The colourful history of the competition can be found on the Scots' Strathcona Cup 2013 Tour website, including details of earlier Tours, and quotations from documents used in reporting on the competition.
Here's a sample: on learning that the Canadian curlers had accepted an invitation to travel to Scotland for the first time, the minutes of the 1908 Annual General Meeting reflected the tone of the competition:
"[There was] unmingled delight as there was a general expectation that the visit of the Canadians to Scotland like that of the Scots to Canada would not only still further strengthen the bond of friendship between those who are kinsmen but…would handsomely avenge any defeat sustained by the Scots in their visit to Canada, which by some strange system of perversion had been very much exaggerated!"
Updates on this unique competition will continue as plans for the Strathcona Cup Tour 2013 get underway.

Is there an attitude that can allow people to better filter/apply the ideas that they learn?
We've all seen the power of ideas, but I have realized something recently. There might be an over-saturation of ideas. It used to be that when people heard of a new idea, they were able to apply it to life immediately. Now, though, we are overwhelmed by all the ideas every day. Even I would like to watch more TED talks every day, but I am getting tired of more and more responsibility for knowing all the right decisions in life. I can't help but wonder if sometimes when we are applying new ideas, we are also forgetting old ones. We used to have enough space to learn the important and the unimportant ideas. Maybe we need to learn an attitude that allows us to filter ideas and really latch onto the most important ones. I personally have seen people's ability to neglect the most important things in life, and focus on the unimportant. Perhaps there is a life attitude that can allow us to simply take pride in efficiently applying all the ideas to life. If such a life changing attitude exists, it ought to be the first idea that we spread. Any ideas?

Dec 25 2012: Dan, this is a hard question to answer because an idea that's important to you might not be important to me. For example, perhaps you need more ideas about how to wash your clothes more effectively. I might already know how to wash my clothes but I need ideas for what I can make in the kitchen. So we're going to filter differently. It might come down to really being in touch with what we need.
Also, I agree with Mark that one doesn't have to be in a super rush. In general, if you don't get the idea you need today, you'll get it tomorrow.

It takes more than putting some electronics in a box to be a premiere hardware company.
And in some ways, Microsoft was already more of a devices company than Google proper (excluding Motorola) prior to shipping the Surface tablet or before Google even existed. Its first mouse, released 30 years ago, paved the way for a strong PC accessories business that gained wide distribution. And Microsoft has moved to expand its own store presence to compete with Apple.
But with the exception of the Xbox game console, many of Microsoft's moves into device categories have flopped. There was the USB speaker set, the floppy drive-based TV photo viewer and even a cordless phone. And more recently, we saw the prolonged Zune, the ephemeral Kin and that niche-iest of devices, the original table-based Surface (that's right: table, not tablet) now shucked off to Samsung.
Many of Microsoft's failed hardware products represented experimental forays into new businesses that were easy to abandon. But with tablets attacking the market for other mobile computing form factors, Surface is a far more strategic effort. As with the Zune music player, Microsoft appears ready to go in for at least a second round on Surface. Indeed, while both of the existing Surfaces had their drawbacks, neither was terrible, at least from a hardware perspective.
Rather, the main challenge has been contending with the poor reception for Windows 8 and Windows RT. When the Surface tablets were announced, many expressed concern that they would grab too large a slice of the PC pie; Microsoft countered that Surface would enlarge that pie. But the reality was that both Surface and other Windows 8/RT devices were consuming (and consumed by) a pie that is becoming a personal-sized portion of its former self.
Longtime Windows PC partners can take some comfort in that the Surface tablets have at least brought a level of humility to the software giant when it comes to using its own operating systems. Microsoft has had a history of pointing the finger at its hardware partners for their failure to exploit Windows technologies and go head-to-head with Apple. Now the company has found out that it's not so easy.
As Microsoft sought to orient its massive customer base to its new touch-first interface and the idea that a device could be both a tablet and a PC, the first generation of Surface and its Windows-based competitors were loaded with sacrificial RAM — necessary but alien proofs of concept.
Microsoft's self-imposed mandate to transform itself from a software company to a devices-and-services company ("Microdevserv"?) comes with a unique set of challenges. When compared to the operating systems and applications for which the company is well-known, services are highly dynamic. Changes are made in the cloud, and all users take advantage of them almost immediately.
Hardware, on the other hand, is very difficult to change once it ships. One can add accessories and update firmware after the fact. But atoms are stubbornly immutable — and there is always the following batch of them to command attention. My next column will discuss what Microsoft should hold onto and what it should change in its next attempt to make gains in the tablet market.
Google and the City of Austin just sent out a slew of invitations to an event next week, but declined to provide details on what will be announced.
While city officials are staying quiet, multiple sources tell VentureBeat that the announcement could involve expanding Google's gigabit broadband Internet service Google Fiber to Austin. Alternately, the city could announce plans for a new Austin-based Google campus, or even some partnership to involve the city with a new Google service. Obviously, we don't know what the announcement will entail, but its safe to say that it'll be of interest to a broad section of the local community.
Here's the invitation itself:
On Tuesday, April 9, at 11 a.m., the City of Austin and Google will make a very important announcement that will have a positive impact on Austinites and the future of the city. We anticipate more than 100 community leaders and elected officials to be in attendance to celebrate this announcement. The event invitation is attached for your convenience. Although we cannot share the details of the announcement with you in advance, we know readers will want to learn more, so we encourage you to join us on Tuesday.
Google Fiber offers download and upload speeds that are 100 times faster than the average consumer broadband Internet connection, and at a much cheaper price. The service launched in the Kansas City area back in July, which instantly prompted competing services from Time Warner Cable to boost their own offerings. Currently, Kansas City is the only Google Fiber location, but Google chairman Eric Schmidt has previously stated that this is not a side project for the company — implying that Google Fiber could launch elsewhere in the future.
The presence of Google Fiber within Kansas City has sparked an increase in new tech startups to the area, as VentureBeat's Sean Ludwig previously pointed out. Austin already has a robust startup culture and is home to several large tech company campuses, including Dell, National Instruments, Intel, Apple (call center), Samsung, and others. That said, Austin is very much a tech-focused city, so the availability of Google Fiber would only add to that.
It's beginning to look a lot like that time of year where studios announce summer premiere dates! Earlier today, AMC was all over announcing new episodes of The Killing and now HBO has its own important announcement concerning Season 6 of True Blood. The subscription cable network's fangtastic series will begin airing new episodes on June 16.
Alan Ball may be gone from the series at this point, but that doesn't seem to be stopping HBO's over-the-top drama. The series signed on some big names for Season 6, including Brothers and Sisters' Luke Grimes, Friday Night Lights' Jurnee Smollett, The Rite's Rutger Hauer, and 90210's Amelia Rose Blair. According to Zap2It, Season 6 will feature only 10 episodes rather than the normal 12, thanks to Anna Paquin's pregnancy. Having to cut down two episodes probably proved a challenge, but hopefully that has led to a tighter storyline.
At the end of Season 4 True Blood produced a shocking and compelling finale that I honestly didn't believe the show would be able to top. Season 5 came out of the gate hard, however, and broadened the scope of the program quite a bit. It looks like we're leading up to a big war between the supernatural community and the humans and we'll have to wait and see how the writers have planned Season 6 out. Without spoiling too much, the strange waters Bill has been drawn into and what that will mean for an alliance between Sookie and Eric could get pretty interesting. Personally, I can't wait.
HBO's True Blood will premiere on Sunday, June 16 at 9 p.m. ET.
Windows Blue leaked online version contains more ideas and development direction in the future of Microsoft's Windows. This may include Modern versions of Windows Defender, a Modern File management software, 3G/4G Fi, barcode scanning support, and some of the new features.

AWESOME! absolutely love these (i got them in Malibu)! cannot wait to use it in my May 2012 wedding!! i occasionally wear them around the house because i love them so much! so hot! October 28, 2011
Love these shoes! These shoes were so cute AND comfortable. I got plenty of compliments on them and wore them all night without any pain. (I am used to living in heels, but do get blisters from some) The fact that they matched my dress (also from David's) perectly was another bonus. October 28, 2011
Great Shoe! I purchased this shoe for a friends wedding in a couple months. This is the most comfortable wedding shoe ever! Usually when I consider Bridesmaids shoes it's comfy over style because you never know how long you'll be standing. NOT IN THESE!! I walked around the store, danced a little bit, and they were fantastic. I suggest ordering down a 1/2 size AT LEAST. I considered going down a full size, but I don't think they'd be as comfortable. October 20, 2011
Cute shoe! I wore these for my wedding to match my bridesmaids. I got so many compliments on them. I wore them in cornflower blue they were my "something blue". Love them.... I had to put gel inserts in them however bc my foot slipped out of size 8 but the 7.5 was too small. October 8, 2011

DELMARVA - Girl Scouts of the Chesapeake Bay are making a difference for armed forces overseas through their Girl Scout cookies.
For $4, customers can buy cookies and designate their purchase to Operation Taste of Home.

To donate cookies through Operation Taste of Home, call the Cookie Hotline at 1-800-YUM-YUM-2, visit one of the many cookie booth sales across the peninsula in February and March, or send a check made payable to GSCB, with OTH on the memo line, to Girl Scouts of the Chesapeake Bay, 501 S.

Now the spotlight is beginning to take a negative toll on the sophomore quarterback, and ESPN radio personality Paul Finebaum says Manziel is become less likeable every day.
He then quickly deleted the message and followed up with this: "Don't ever forget that I love A&M with all of my heart, but please please walk a day in my shoes."
If Manziel is finally beginning to fold after all the media attention, he has no one to blame but himself. He seemed to go out of his way to make headline after headline the last few months, from taking pictures with money at a casino to making a clip with Dude Perfect to announcing his departure from Twitter (which obviously didn't last long).
My opinion: this is getting a little too Tim-Tebowish for me. Except in Tebow's defense, it's not even his fault.
Manziel has a lot of work to do both on and off the field in order to stop his public view from going the LeBron James route, because that's exactly where he's headed—and fast.

Ron Howard will direct the first film and the first season of television, which will be written by Akiva Goldsman. Goldsman will produce the film through his Weed Road Pictures with Howard and Brian Grazer for Imagine Entertainment. Howard, Grazer and Goldsman will executive produce the television series for Universal Media Studios. Kerry Foster will executive produce the first film for Weed Road Pictures along with Todd Hallowell and Erica Huggins for Imagine Entertainment.
The Dark Tower is Stephen King's opus of seven bestselling novels with, to date, more than 30 million copies sold in 40 countries. The novels incorporate themes from multiple genres including fantasy, science fiction, horror and adventure. After the series was completed, a prequel of comic books based on one of the characters was also published.
Howard, Grazer and Goldsman are planning for the first film in the trilogy to be immediately followed by a television series that will bridge the second film. After the second film, the television series will pick up allowing viewers to explore the adventures of the protagonist as a young man as a bridge to the third film and beyond.
"The worlds of Stephen King's The Dark Tower series are richly detailed, inter-locking and deeply connected," said Goldsman. "By telling this story across media platforms and over multiple hours-and with a view to telling it completely-we have our best chance of translating Roland's quest to reach The Dark Tower onto screen. We are proceeding with tremendous excitement, fidelity to the source material and, quite frankly, no small amount of awe at this opportunity."
"King has created the most visually enthralling places and characters in The Dark Tower," said Grazer. "The synergy created across all the media divisions of our partners at NBC Universal to tell this remarkable story is ground-breaking and invigorating. This project will be one of the most exciting and challenging that I will have ever worked on and I am thrilled to be a part of it."
The Dark Tower is in development . The film is directed by Ron Howard.

Re/Code talked to an unnamed source, but didn't share many details about how the tech would actually work.
We've reached out to Twitter and Stripe and will be update if we hear back.
Twitter currently has three main ways of driving revenue: Promoted tweets, promoted accounts, and promoted trends. The news of possible payments on Twitter's network follows an earlier report from Jim Edwards on eight new revenue streams the company could use to finally become profitable.
Twitter's pre-IPO S-1 filing showed it made $316.9 million in revenue in 2012. The company launched a ton of new product features in the 2013 fourth quarter, leading Goldman's Heath Terry to conclude its stock was a solid buy.

Yay for Fridays and the fact that I'm not pregnant anymore!
1. Easy paper lanterns (in a pretty great color palette)
2. Wanted: this gelato print for Margo's room
3. I'd prefer a bagel party over a donut one (so sue me)
4. I wish I had a backyard for this modern nook
5. I bet any meal served at this table would taste amazing (even SpaghettiOs)
Just a note: I've got a month of the best guests, faves and ice cream lined up starting on Monday. Leave lots of nice comments for the guests and pep talks for me.
I'm so happy to announce that his little gal joined our family on Friday. She was 8 1/2 pounds (we think it's mostly in her cheeks), 21 inches, has a tiny bit of dark hair, and a scream as loud as her brothers. Her name is Margo Jane and we're in love.
Start with:
brown sugar ice cream
Mix in:
oatmeal crumb topping
I may have panicked thinking that the baby was going to come this week and by the time I got out of the house again, peach season would be over. So I made a special trip to Costco for a box of the greatest fruit in the world and I will eat them all within a matter of days. And then go back and buy a few more boxes because everyone lied to me and second babies don't come any earlier than the first.
In conclusion, fresh peaches are the best non-chocolate ice cream mix in.
It's the summer of ice cream on yamf (have I made that painfully obvious yet?). If you'd like to join the cause of consumption, it's time to organize the annual ice cream crawl. Gather up a group of fellow ice cream lovers, choose 3 to 5 shops to try in your area, bring along the scorecards, eat yourself silly, and declare a winner.
You can download these scorecards right here on Julep. They make things all official and such.
Another way to make things more official is to create maps for each of the guests. Here are the five scoop shops we hit up in Denver this year:
Glacier Ice Cream and Gelato – The place to go if you love variety and your ice cream with chunks.
Flavor to try: Funky Donky
Nuggs Ice Cream – Solid homemade ice cream but nothing really stood out to me here.
Flavor to try: Stellar Milky Way
High Point Creamery – If I opened an ice cream shop, this would be it. Every detail is spot on and the ice cream is the freshest I've ever tasted. The ice cream flight is absolute genius (five flavors, specialty toppings, hot fudge or caramel, and a tray that says Eat Your Heart Out).
Flavor to try: Chocolate Orange with Marshmallows or Mango Coconut Lassi
Em's Ice Cream - Super fresh. Super creamy. Super tasty.
Flavor to try: Toasted Coconut (this blew me away)
Sweet Cow - I never met a flavor here that I didn't like. Plus, pretzel cones!
Flavor to try: Oatmeal Cookie
Pace yourself and enjoy!
Psst, here are the five scoop shops we hit up last year.
scorecard and map design: Kirsten Bingham
On Sunday, my best friend Kelly turned 30 and I thought if there were ever an occasion that called for a monumental in-a-box, this was it. So recalling Jane's fortieth birthday box, I gathered up 30 presents. For the wrapping, I stuck with kraft paper and cardboard and simple embellishments (all found in my supply closet, thank you hoarding tendencies). Here's just a sampling.
While thinking of 30 gifts would be difficult to attempt for most people, I found it was like shopping for myself and it was nice to have an excuse to buy all those Target finds that I can never justify. Here are some of the items included (I left out the less photogenic stuff like Sixlets).
sources: socks from Target, garland from Target, Gap clutch, motto journal, Orla Kiely purse kit, tape and dispenser from Target, salt water taffy, happy cards, candle, seed packets, haters gonna hate sticker, twist scarf, 30 sparklers, mini heart, the short list, have a nice day stamp, perpetual calendar from Target, necklace, post-its from Target
I'm not sharing this to toot my own horn, I'm sharing to encourage the sending of care packages. So go forth and brighten someone's mailbox.
1. I honestly have never served cheese yet I want all of these cheese plates
2. Frozen treats have been my lunch of choice this past month (never again summer pregnancy, never again)

Cowboy Bark Ice Cream
Start with:
dark chocolate ice cream (with a sprinkle of salt)
Mix in:
honey roasted peanuts
toffee bits
chocolate sandwich cookies
Trader Joe's finally came to Denver (tough life we westerners have) so I feel it my duty to try one different treat every time I shop. Cowboy bark recently landed in my cart and I felt the need to mix it into ice cream because my theory is if you're going to have dessert, have dessert. This one's a winner.
Two things I've made clear: I'm crummy at getting wrapping paper corners to lay flat and I love Martha Stewart Crafts Acrylic Paints. Hence, this steamer turned color blocked gift container.
To make your own you'll need:
- bamboo steamer
- acrylic paint (I used Martha Stewart Crafts Acrylic Paints in party streamer, wild salmon, and gold)
- basic paint brushes
All you need to do is paint the outside of the steamer (I did two coats), then let dry, and gift away. IF they like it enough, the gift recipient can even repurpose it as a storage container for bits and baubles or beef jerky. Their call.

It's National Ice Cream Month, yippee! Since I like to encourage as much ice cream intake as possible, today I'm sharing tips on how to pull together a frosty fete.
Send: This ice cream invitation! Simply download, print, fill-in and mail to anyone who appreciates summer and ice cream. Anybody else can stay home.
Decorate with: citrus hued balloons. Don't overthink it, get some balloons blown up and lay out some picnic blankets then call it a day.
Serve: Ice cream, toppings, and Starbucks Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™ – Caffe Mocha (for an extra treat).
Here are some ideas for toppings to set out : fresh fruit, waffle cone bits, cookie dough balls, brownie chunks, gummy bears, sprinkles, hot fudge, pirouette cookies, Oreos, crushed candy bars, chocolate covered pretzels, caramel.
Make: Caffe Mocha Gelato. I love homemade ice cream so I usually make my own for such an occasion. Here's a favorite flavor among the adults.
Caffe Mocha Gelato (adjusted from Ina Garten's Deeply Chocolate Gelato)
- 2 cups Starbucks Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™ – Caffe Mocha
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup sugar, divided
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 4 extra-large egg yolks
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- Large pinch kosher salt
- 8 chocolates, roughly chopped, optional
Heat the Starbucks Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™ – Caffe Mocha, cream, and 1/2 cup sugar in a 2-quart saucepan, until the sugar dissolves and the milk starts to simmer. Add the cocoa powder and chocolate and whisk until smooth. Pour into a heat-proof measuring cup.
Place the egg yolks and the remaining 1/4 cup sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on high speed for 3 to 5 minutes, until light yellow and very thick. With the mixer on low speed, slowly pour the hot chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Pour the egg and chocolate mixture back into the 2-quart saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. A candy thermometer will register about 180 degrees F. Don't allow the mixture to boil!
Pour the mixture through a sieve into a bowl and stir in vanilla and salt. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the custard and chill completely.
Pour the custard into the bowl of an ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's directions. Stir in the roughly chopped chocolate, if using, and freeze in covered containers. Allow the gelato to thaw slightly before serving.
Send guests home with: A carton for themselves! Pre-package ice cream in pints (buy them right here) and customize with these wraps and lid toppers free for you to download. Then your guests can grab their favorite on their way out.
And you're done (and have solidified your title as best party host ever).
Love summer and ice cream as much as I do? I put together an in-a-box to go with this party and it's up for grabs today! It includes:
- you're cool card
- popsicle string lights
- popsicle temporary tattoos
- ice cream cups
- Sweet Cream and Sugar Cones
- Coupons for 5 free cartons of Starbucks Discoveries Iced Café Favorites™

This Company is Putting up a Sizzling Show
Himanshu is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Premium fashion retailer Ralph Lauren (NYSE: RL) seems to be unaffected by the prevailing economic conditions and restricted buying of customers. The retailer has been posting marvelous results over the past few quarters, and its recent third-quarter results were no exception.
It lit up the Street with its power-packed results, which were way ahead of analysts' expectations, and the company saw its share prices move north. Let us unravel the secret of this stellar performance.
Unraveling the secrets
Driven by increased demand for high-end and fashionable products, Ralph Lauren's revenue moved north to $1.85 billion. The holiday season, which has been quite disheartening for most retailers, brought more than just good news to the company. Moreover, if we get rid of the negative effects of unfavorable currency movements and some store closures, then the top line would have been even better.
The retail segment was the star performer during the quarter with impressive same-store sales growth. The company's amazing collection lured plenty of customers into the stores. However, the wholesale segment was a laggard. Its performance was hampered mainly because of the discontinuation of American Living. Also, sales to some European customers were stopped. Nonetheless, these measures have been taken in order to concentrate on the more profitable businesses, which will help Ralph Lauren grow further.
The results get even more interesting when we reach the bottom line. Adjusted earnings stood at $2.4 per share compared to $1.78 per share a year ago, a huge jump of 35%. The company did a commendable job in containing its costs. Additionally, lower input costs as well as a lower tax rate played an important role. This enabled gross margins to expand further to 59.3%.
Overall, Ralph Lauren had a decent quarter. However, it has been one of the exceptions in the industry. Other premium retailers such as Coach (NYSE: COH) and Tiffany (NYSE: TIF) are not doing well. Both the retailers witnessed a muted holiday season with little consumer enthusiasm for spending. Customers' restricted spending led Coach to register a quarter below expectations. Coach's revenue stood at $1.5 billion, a 4% increase in sales only, which was below analysts' expectations. Though revenue from China surged remarkably, both European and the American markets have been showing low demand for luxury and expensive products.
Lower demand for such products in Europe and America not only hampered Coach's results, but also Tiffany's performance, since it is a jeweler and a specialty retailer. It caters to an affluent class of customers and is hence prone to any kind of economic slowdown. Both Coach and Tiffany are experiencing dwindling sales, which is also affecting their stock prices. Tiffany's revenue for November and December increased only 4% to $992 million in spite of having 28 new stores compared to same period last year. Moreover, retailers are expected to perform extremely well during the holiday season, but Tiffany's performance was below expectations. Hence, Ralph Lauren's extraordinary results have been quite surprising for investors.
Looks Tempting Going Forward
The premium products retailer looks even more interesting when we look at some of its future prospects. Firstly, it will be making uniforms for the U.S. Olympic Committee in 2014. Though this is not the first time, manufacturing the uniforms and maintaining the quality standards speaks to the company's growth potential.
Also, Ralph Lauren has recently launched its new vintage collection which will have unique product pieces and will cater to a niche market. The company has even taken an initiative to let its customers' poll on its website to see which product should be brought back to production once again. Customers' feedback will play a very important role in boosting the retailer's sales.
Lastly, its strategy of doing away with unprofitable brands seems to benefit the retailer, and will help Ralph Lauren remain focused on its core brands. Going forward, these efforts will start bearing fruit.
Conclusive Thoughts
With an 18% appreciation in its stock price, Ralph Lauren has been a marvelous performer. It has the right strategies in place along with initiatives to reduce its cost structure. Its efforts in the e-commerce segment, especially in the European region, have already started showing positive results, and it is expected to grow further.
Moreover, the company has been expanding into new regions as well as into new collections, which is driving more and more customers to its stores. I believe the company's strength lies in the fact that it concentrates on customers' preferences more than anything else. This has been its key to success. Owning this stock will definitely make your portfolio look good.

I've been mostly going to Diablo & have to branch out a bit.
Strong Intermediate/Advanced but I lack cardio.
Diablo is intense & rocky, Highland MTB park is a lot of fun, have to try Plattekill this year. For trail riding I have enjoyed most trails I have been to & there are many more for me to try, I don't really have a favorite yet.
I have DH, Freeride & all mountain bikes.
Sorry No
Definitely down for going back to Blue. Anytime.
Great riding with you Sunday. Next time, hopefully one better marked trails!
Todd, I live in the W village and i'm thinking about trying to get a Zipcar for the Lewis Morris ride. I see you need a ride too so I was wondering if you wanted to split it with me?

17 Ways to Stay Safe at the Beach this Summer
If you absolutely must leave your house to go to the beach this summer, be sure to protect yourself with these proven tips:
- Drink plenty of sunscreen.
- Get appropriate zoning permits for all sand castle construction.
- Introduce yourself to the lifeguards. They'll be much more inclined to get up and do something if they can put a face to the cries for help.
- Though full of pristine sand and excellent surf, Iraq's beaches are best avoided.
- If you spot a shark, quickly bite off your own arm to show it you're a crazy motherfucker with nothing to lose.
- Blow on hot sand before stepping on it.
- Pay attention to boogie boarders. They rule.
- Wear a Life Jacket, Life Pants, and a Life Helmet.
I'm probably really baked but I thought this was the best.

Top Shows 5 in Vegas: Part 1
People watching on the Strip may be enough of a show for some Vegas visitors, but for those who truly want to be oohed and awed, there's quite simply no place like Sin City. Vegas has firmly established itself as an often imitated, never replicated entertainment Mecca, more comparable to Disney World for adults than a viable metropolitan area. On the off chance you think you might be bored, try taking in one of the city's world class live performance shows, of course, if you're legitimately bored in Vegas, therapy is probably a better use of your time. These long-running Vegas classics will be sure to keep you on the edge of your seat.
- Penn and Teller (Rio) When night falls on the desert, Las Vegas lights up like a sprawling Christmas tree. The oasis of light shining bright amid the otherwise desolate arid region gives tourists the illusion that anything is possible, if not probable. Penn and Teller have been the premiere illusionists in Vegas, since they took their magic act to the Rio in 2001. The duo performs every night except Thursday, delivering a full 90 minutes of suspense, intrigue, bewilderment and laughter.
- Blue Man Group (Venetian) There is an obvious "feeling blue, cheer yourself up with a show" pun just sitting here, but sparing your intellect, this show is just flat out fun for the entire family. Brace yourself for an eardrum thumping, gut busting, all out ruckus that is more than a mere spectacle, rather thriving on audience participation and interactivity. Blue Man Group performs twice nightly at 7 and 10:30.
- Beatles "Love" (Mirage) Ok, while anything is possible in Vegas, perhaps bringing the original Beatles back is too tall a task. Still, you won't come closer this side of the great beyond to getting the band back together for one more show. Mixing classic Beatles songs with corresponding on stage acts, "Love" both celebrates the most influential music group of an era and examines the surrounding music culture of the time. Put on by Cirque du Soleil, the 60′s are explored in the most artistically tasteful way possible, with doors opening at 6 and 9 for the two nightly shows (no shows Tuesday or Wednesday).
