Linux KVM as a Learning Tool
the guest will exit from guest mode, and the configured outb() callback function is called in user mode (with values 0xf1 and 0x0a for its second and third parameters, respectively).
Initially, use dummy callbacks. Create and reference them in a variable called my_callbacks, as shown in Listing 2. Most field names are self-explanatory, but for a brief description of each of them, refer to the comments in the structure definition in libkvm.h.
Listing 2. I/O Callbacks (used in launcher.c)
static int my_inb(void *opaque, int16_t addr, uint8_t *data) { puts ("inb"); return 0; } static int my_inw(void *opaque, uint16_t addr, uint16_t *data) { puts ("inw"); return 0; } static int my_inl(void *opaque, uint16_t addr, uint32_t *data) { puts ("inl"); return 0; } static int my_outb(void *opaque, uint16_t addr, uint8_t data) { puts ("outb"); return 0; } static int my_outw(void *opaque, uint16_t addr, uint16_t data) { puts ("outw"); return 0; } static int my_outl (void *opaque, uint16_t addr, uint32_t data) { puts ("outl"); return 0; } static int my_pre_kvm_run(void *opaque, int vcpu) { return 0; } ... and similar for my_mmio_read, my_mmio_write, my_debug, my_halt, my_shutdown, my_io_window, my_try_push_interrupts, my_try_push_nmi, my_post_kvm_run, and my_tpr_access static struct kvm_callbacks my_callbacks = { .inb = my_inb, .inw = my_inw, .inl = my_inl, .outb = my_outb, .outw = my_outw, .outl = my_outl, .mmio_read = my_mmio_read, .mmio_write = my_mmio_write, .debug = my_debug, .halt = my_halt, .io_window = my_io_window, .try_push_interrupts = my_try_push_interrupts, .try_push_nmi = my_try_push_nmi, // added in kvm-77 .post_kvm_run = my_post_kvm_run, .pre_kvm_run = my_pre_kvm_run, .tpr_access = my_tpr_access };
To create the virtual machine itself, use kvm_create(), whose second argument is the amount of RAM in bytes desired for it, and the third argument is the address of a location that will in turn contain the address of the beginning of the memory space reserved for the virtual machine (the "guest memory" box in Figure 1). Note that kvm_create() does not allocate memory for the virtual machine.
To create the first virtual CPU, use kvm_create_vcpu() with a value of 0 for the slot parameter—versions less than 65 create the first virtual CPU during the call to kvm_create().
There are several methods to allocate memory for the virtual machine—for example, kvm_create_phys_mem(). The second argument of kvm_create_phys_mem() is the starting physical address of the requested region in the guest memory (in the pseudo-"physical memory" of the virtual machine, not in the physical memory of the host). The third argument is the length, in bytes, of the region. The fourth indicates whether dirty page logging should be activated in the requested region, and the fifth argument indicates whether the pages may be written. On success, it returns the location of the allocated memory area as an address in the virtual address space of the calling process.
Invoke the functions of Listing 1 within the same KVM context to create your first virtual machine, and execute it with kvm_run(). This function will return only if an I/O handler pointed in my_callbacks returns a nonzero value or an exception occurs that neither the guest OS nor KVM can handle.
Listing 3 contains the code for the launcher, including the load_file() function to copy the guest kernel image from a file to the virtual machine's memory space. Why is this image copied at offset 0xf0000 of the guest's memory space? Because of the way real-mode works, as explained in the next section.
Listing 3. Our First Virtual Machine Launcher (launcher.c)
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <libkvm.h> /* callback definitions as shown in Listing 2 go here */ void load_file(void *mem, const char *filename) { int fd; int nr; fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY); if (fd == -1) { fprintf(stderr, "Cannot open %s", filename); perror("open"); exit(1); } while ((nr = read(fd, mem, 4096)) != -1 && nr != 0) mem += nr; if (nr == -1) { perror("read"); exit(1); } close(fd); } #define MEMORY_SIZE (0x1000000) /* 16 Mb */ #define FIRST_VCPU (0) int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { kvm_context_t kvm; void *memory_area; /* Second argument is an opaque, we don't use it yet */ kvm = kvm_init(&my_callbacks, NULL); if (!kvm) { fprintf(stderr, "KVM init failed"); exit(1); } if (kvm_create(kvm, MEMORY_SIZE, &memory_area) != 0) { fprintf(stderr, "VM creation failed"); exit(1); } #ifndef KVM_VERSION_LESS_THAN_65 if (kvm_create_vcpu(kvm, FIRST_VCPU)) { fprintf(stderr, "VCPU creation failed"); exit(1); } #endif memory_area = kvm_create_phys_mem(kvm, 0, MEMORY_SIZE, 0, 1); load_file(memory_area + 0xf0000, argv[1]); kvm_run(kvm, FIRST_VCPU); return 0; }
Exit instead of hlt
Thanks for this excellent article. I've tested out the sample but the program never returns after the kvm_run() call. I guess this is because the vcpu is halted in the last instruction of the test program. But how do I exit the KVM altogether and resume execution from kvm_run() onwards? Is there any documentation for libkvm somewhere I can consult?
This appears to be the libkvm in question, no?
See the userspace git tree. Is this the lib we need to be building to follow this article? I've been looking to do something like this with KVM for a while to create my own forth-like environment without having to screw around with low level hardware (or at least put it off til something interesting already works). Look forward to the follow up article. When is it scheduled?

LibKVM on Ubuntu? Nonesuch...
My attempt to follow this tutorial died on page 2, when it announced that all of the examples would be using the LibKVM library. Several hours of searching on Google and I've found nothing; no way to install or use the LibKVM library unless I'm on BSD.
If anyone has a workaround for this, I'd love to hear it. I was really looking forward to following the tutorial.
Different libkvm
That's a different library. You need to install the qemu-kvm-devel package. Note you will probably have to get it directly from sourceforge since it does not appear to be in the Ubuntu repos. I don't use Ubuntu much so maybe I'm overlooking something, however, I know that openSUSE does not have a package for it either (at least in the standard places at 11.0). Make sure that you get the version that corresponds to the version of kvm that you have installed. For example, here is a link to the -devel package for release 88.
If you have to install it from sourceforge some fiddling around will probably be required. First, you'll have to build it, then install it, and then potentially modify your include/library paths to find the needed items.

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

A 36-year-old woman is dead after she jumped to her death from a moving ambulance on Interstate 25 in Greenwood Village, just south of Denver.
It happened about 2:30 p.m. Sunday as a crew from Action Care Ambulance Incorporated was taking Melissa O. Watkins to a hospital.
It's not clear why the woman was being taken to the hospital in the first place.
Police say the woman jumped out on her own accord, and did not 'fall' out of the ambulance.
No other vehicles hit the woman, but she died at Swedish Medical Center.
An emergency medical technician and a paramedic were both with the woman when she jumped. They were offered trauma counseling.

The Vandals / Assorted Jelly Beans
|This article does not cite any sources. (December 2009) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
|The Vandals / Assorted Jelly Beans split 7"
|EP by The Vandals, Assorted Jelly Beans
|Punk rock
|Kung Fu Records
The Vandals / Assorted Jelly Beans split 7" is a 7-inch record put out by Kung Fu Records in 1996. It was the first release to be put out by the label, which was founded by Vandals members Joe Escalante and Warren Fitzgerald for the purpose of releasing an album by the Huntington Beach band Assorted Jelly Beans. It is therefore appropriate that the label's first release is a split 7" with songs from The Vandals on one side and the Assorted Jelly Beans on the other.
The Assorted Jelly Beans' side of the record includes two songs that would later appear on their first album, also released by Kung Fu, as well as the song "Macho Man," which is exclusive to this release. The Vandals' side includes two covers of songs by other Huntington Beach bands, the Falling Idols and Supernova, as well as a playful instrumental reprise of the song "Happy Birthday to Me" from their 1995 album Live Fast, Diarrhea. The Falling Idols were a Huntington Beach punk rock band in the 1980s which featured Dave Quackenbush, who became the Vandals' singer in 1985, and Randy Bradbury, who became the bass player for Pennywise in 1996.
Track listing[edit]
- Vandals side:
- Joe [originally performed by the Falling Idols]
- Costa Mesa Hates Me [originally performed by Supernova]

Vizcaino DFA'd
As had been rumored, the Cubs have gone and designated Luis Vizcaino for assignment and promoted Jeff Samardzija. Vizcaino has 72 hours to clear waivers and then the Cubs have 7 days to trade or release him. Vizcaino is owed $3.5M for 2009, some of which has already been paid by the Cubs, plus he had a $4M option for 2010 with a $500K buyout, which I believe the Cubs are still responsible for.
Muskat's article suggests that Jim Hendry was trying to deal Vizcaino - possibly to the Washington Nationals - but he was unable to finalize anything, so they decided to DFA him instead. Which makes me ask, what's the fucking rush? A Trib article that Cubnut linked to in the previous post that I can't seem to get to work now, suggested Vizcaino got in Lou's doghouse by showing up late on Opening Day, but that's hardly enough to burn $4M. As far as I know, Jeff Samardzija bobblehead day wasn't scheduled yet, so I don't know why he needed to be called up by April 23rd at the expense of Vizcaino. And you know, Vizcaino hasn't sucked so far, say like one Neal Cotts. A matter of fact, you could say he's been good with 3.2 IP, 3 K's, 0 BB's and 0 ER. And let's not even get into the Cubs burning over $5M between Vizcaino and Gaudin (if they don't find someone to take Vizcaino's contract) and then crying poor all offseason on why they didn't want to resign Kerry Wood and had to move Mark DeRosa and Jason Marquis.
But, the Cubs and Hendry have 10 days still to do something with Vizcaino so I'll save flying off the handle until the final end game is clear, but at the moment this series of moves sure looks like some of the most serious roster blundering since the day they resigned Neifi Perez.
The other bit of news is that Milton Bradley will sit until he's 100% and when he comes back he'll be batting 6th in the lineup. Anyone who watched the game last night could see that Bradley was still favoring his groin, so probably the right move, although the Cubs probably should have just DL'd him from the beginning to start saving themselves from that third year option that is contingent on days on the disabled list. With Bradley struggling and Micah Hoffpauir hitting, probably not a big deal in the short term. I'll be curious how this will affect the lineup though.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Interesting lineup change today. Fukudome, the hot hand, gets to bat 3rd, and Theriot and his .400+ OBP bumps all the way from 8th to 2nd.
Hopefully we get effective Zambrano today.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Have to wonder if any DL decisions regarding Bradley, now or in the future, automatically become contentious because of their potential impact on that option year. Not saying Bradley would necessarily raise a stink, but I'm sure his agent would be on the phone if Bradley felt he could tough it out and the Cubs wanted to DL him anyway.
This afternoon's lineup by way of Wittenmyer/Twitter: sori, riot, fuku, lee, rami, hoffp, soto, font, z
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
DL'ing monopoly guy seems to be the popular move, but I disagree. All you gain by DL'ing him is a roster spot so you can bring up some scrub from Iowa. I say let him sit day-to-day, who knows, maybe he'll clobber a game winner one of these days. Plus, it would be a good time for him to serve his 2-game suspension as long as he's active.
And the Cubs, geesh, throwing money around like Timothy Geithner. Still Vizcaino represents the past, Samardjiza is the future...
... yea that was sarcasm.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
"Bradley was unavailable after Piniella's remarks. A Cubs spokesman said Bradley had no comment" -- Sullivan
Apparently Milton missed the part of Lou's nice chat where he suggested MB talk to the media.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
I guess he should just do his thing and talk to the media, but to be honest, I don't really give a shit if he does or not. He's a ball player, not the mayor. I think the media thing is blown out of proportion.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Yes!!! Although, I thought it was to be a starter. Hope he gets a lot of innings.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
So now it looks like, what, we got zippo for Marquis except giving away millions to a guy who won't be around for even one month? Man, I know a lot of people felt Marquis was nothing but he was not all that bad as a # 5 starter. Hendry obviously has had the touch with some moves but this has to rank as one of his top ten worse moves.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
They would have paid Marquis $10 million.
Instead, they pay Rockies $1 million, Vizcaino $4 million.
Savings: $5 million.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Wasn't there talk of giving Soriano and Theriot the day off today? At least Soto, day game after a night game.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Soto needs to play everyday until he gets his timing at the plate back. He's already had plenty of off days.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Soto also looks a bit hefty -- maybe Lou is trying to play him into shape.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Levine has similar story to the one Rob links above:
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Top ten favorite memories from the Luis Vizcaino era?
So many to choose from, it's hard to know where to start.
Beyond bizarre. Cotts has been a disaster (but not a surprise), they send Shark to Iowa to stretch out as a starter, Vizcaino has a 0.00 ERA --- so the logical move in April is to cut Vizcaino and move Shark to middle relief, where he will get inconsistent work, and keep Cotts because any lefty is a good lefty.
Oh, I get it. No, wait, I don't.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Ha! I think Hendry's just having a rough year. He's off to a slow start.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Are you really surprised? He showed up out of shape and seemingly out of touch with his role on the team. We're talking about a guy who's been inconsistent his entire career. I wish we had the cash to just work him into a platoon situation so they can try to give him some months off here and there..
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
...not to mention asscan can do what samninja can do in middle relief...
i guess mitch atkins getting regular starter work is more important, too.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Lordy, they're talking about the bat issue again... geez...
Probably because of the ump who got smacked with the bat and had to be taken to the hospital. Well if it was anything like the umps we've seen in the past week or so he probably got hit with the bat because his eyes were closed or he was drunk or something. Bleh... Want a safe sport? Go golf.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Is today April Fools Day? I mean Hendry can't be serious can he? I know, I know I hate Hendry so anything I say is biased. But when he does stupid shit like this it is obvious why so many people don't like him as a GM. He releases a guy who has a 0.00 ERA making $3.5MM while keeping a guy who has a 3.33 WHIP and .354 BAA only making $1.1MM. Why cry poor the past 6 months, but then throw like $10MM down the shitter releasing/trading players?
This seriously makes ZERO sense. There has to be some part of the story we are not hearing as it makes no sense to release Vizcaino over Cotts.
What a fucking joke!!!
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Len and Bob alluded to some "tardiness issues" during the telecast today, which leads me to believe it wasn't a one time thing on opening day.
Seems like the Cubs are trying to go the ATL route and make sure everyone in the organization does things the right way (although signing MB would seem to contradict that theory).
Anyway, all of these issues will become insignificant once half our starting lineup gets out of their current slumps (Bradley, Soto, Fontenot, Lee).
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Forget how to score runs, boys?
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
16 innings and counting...
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
The Cubs are almost unbearable to watch right now.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Did Theriot get thrown out on a strike steal or a botched hit and run?
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Straight steal, he had a great jump and had it stolen if not for the fact that it ended up being a high fastball on Hernandez's throwing side. He was standing up to catch it and then threw a perfectly placed ball to second. Any other pitch he would have been safe. But it was a total rally killer regardless.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Wow, Neal Cotts is a fucking bum. Can we just throw at Votto's head every time he's up? The dude kills us.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Cotts just gave up HR to Votto...HA HA HA HA HA
Neal FUCKING Cotts
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Hey, at least it wasn't a walk.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
I see Vizcaino is available. Maybe Hendry can deal Cotts for him....
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
I think The Joe was kidding, but it's true, I'd rather see Cotts make the guy earn runs over walking them on base. Of course better yet, I'd prefer to just not see Cotts pitch at all. I'm willing to cut him some slack, though, because he's white.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
I'll cut him some slack because he's gorgeous.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
He is a lefty
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
Yeah, sure is great to have this guy back... More gas for the fire!!!
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
You really can't make this shit up.
The Cubs decide to release Vizcaino, keep Cotts and bring up Samardick.
Cotts gives up a HR to a lefty and Samardick gives up 4 hits and 2 runs in an inning.
And sometimes I wonder why this organization hasn't won a title in 101 years now.
Re: Vizcaino DFA'd
This game is awful. I'm turning it off.

When we played the Reds with Chapman, I always thought of it as an eight-inning game. So now other teams have eight innings to try to get a lead against the Cubs. Should be a challenge, assuming three or four Cubs ever start hitting again.
I don't really try to get to know and like these players personally. I'm rooting for laundry, for the most part. Exceptions might be when a player makes trouble in the clubhouse or in the dugout. (Zambrano and Bradley come to mind. Also Papelbon.) But I don't think Chapman is one of those jerks.
Unfortunately, a pretty good summary. It looks like next year Heyward will be getting yet another batting stance adjustment.
The recent good news has been Baez. I'm afraid about the next league adjustment on him, though, which is probably right around the corner.
Bryant I don't worry about too much. Just not seeing the ball well right now. He'll turn it around. Russell's been good with men in scoring position all year and he's 22ish. He'll be fine but next year is likely to be his breakout year.
If Travis' back-to-back-to-back walks cost Hendricks the ERA title, that would really suck.
Edit: "A lifeless loss to a lousy Sox team."
This place is a real downer after a loss to the Sox.
I expect they will go 5-9 games above .500 the rest of the year. 96-98 wins will win the Division.
They should have one more 2-3 week hot streak in them.
However, several players are just "average" for the last month: Zobrist, Ross, Russell, Ceasar. Montero is terrible, plus he cannot throw anyone out. -WAR. Heyward is abysmal at the plate, but a plus in the OF. Still with RISP he has been terrible. KB has not been driving in runs as of late. But Apparently the team is still above average with RISP according to S Sahadev.
I came to that realization tonight. I kept expecting them to play better, but now I realize they aren't going to. They are a .500 team now.
- They have one reliable starting pitcher. Jake's magic is gone, and it doesn't look like it's coming back. Lester has been lousy recently. Lackey's ERA goes up every time he pitches.
- Heyward has been dead weight all year. I can't remember a single series where he was a significant offensive contributor. Not one. Great defense, but but if he were hitting .270 with 10 HR and played average defense, the Cubs would be better off.
new rule...no one's allowed to throw k.bryant a changeup
Team is .500 since early May and is playing like a .500 team. Lack of offense seems to be putting a lot of pressure on the pitchers...and they aren't handling it terribly well.
.500 the rest of the way still may win the division though.
...i hate espn.
nothing like settling into a cubs game to get a few minutes cutaway for an ortiz AB in the 6th inning of the det/bos game.
oh, at least they're doing split screen now...i guess.
I'm liking this rookie Nathan.
Richard DFA'd. Meh...
Throwbacks with fashionable cutouts would be a nice touch.
The next 2 games are nationally televised. I think we dominate tonight, hitting 3 HRs off Shields. Great night for KB to end HR drought facing HR prone pitcher in one of the most hitter friendly parks in the league.
If the ball didn't deflect off the pitcher's mound, the game wouldn't have ended. Montgomery did miss his location though, but if that same contact was made and went in any of direction, good chance of ground out if it doesn't get through.
If it was 1 night later, Chapman would be out there and we probably would be going to extras.
Also, If KB wasn't robbed of a HR, perhaps we would have won. We will never know. Nice play by Melky though.
The comparison isn't Chapman replacing Rondon. It's Chapman replacing Richard (hopefully) in the pen. Chapman's better.

I have the same problem, coupled with big feet and wide calves. My local cobbler quoted me $35-50 to cut down boots.
I'd imagine something like that would be difficult and expensive to ship. Your best bet might be finding a local woodworker to commission for the job.
I've been wondering, are these fashion boots only or do folks ride in them?
eta: well I couldn't resist. And a pair of clogs may have jumped in my cart as well.... :D

Late Bird Review: Tekken 6 Bloodline Rebellion
I have been a fan of Tekken since the first game came out. The similar 3D fighting competitor, VirtuaFighter, never really grabbed my attention much and I constantly gravitated toward Tekken whenever I saw it on a home console or in the arcade. My favorite renditions of Tekken (3, 4, and Tag Tournament) make me hopeful that the designers learned from their mistakes in 5 and gave the game a fresh style and gameplay it needed for the jump to the next generation of console gaming.
For once, we'll start with presentation. I've witnessed Bloodline Rebellion in the arcade and on home consoles and I have to say the graphics in the one-on-one fights are fantastic. The developers obviously knew it too because many of the stages you fight in are brightly lit with constantly changing colors and movement. One is in an underwater tunnel—like a scene out of that movie Daylight—where a gas tanker is rolled over and on fire while water is rushing in from the ceiling. There are constant bursts of fire in the background, with dangling electrical wires for sparks, all with water is rushing in and resting on the floor, showing off the effect of the character movement as they dash or attack. There's another stage where the time for a day to pass is sped up so that you're fighting in the morning, evening, and night just so they can show off their lighting effects. It can be hard on the eyes with all the flashes and flare the developers want you to see, but regardless, it all looks really good.
It is the best looking 3D fighting game out there right now, in my opinion. It still retains some of the classic limitless backgrounds that the series started out with, but most of the stages have taken a turn for the arena type Tekken began to adopt in part 4. Using some of the techniques that were in Dead or Alive, some stages change and allow the players to fall through floors or throw opponents through walls, to make the action more exciting. It is a little weird in some stages where the walls are invisible and there is a reaction from when you knock a player into a barrier that seemingly shouldn't be there. But, it feels like the places where you're knocking sheep and pigs around in the background were meant to be unrealistic and just fun for players to laugh at. Variety is what I'm trying to say.
Sound is consistent with the Tekken series. The sound of impacts and battle cries haven't really changed and don't have to; its part of what makes Tekken familiar. The grunts or intimidating insults of the Mishimas never get tiring. Music is also rather familiar to the series. Tekken has never had the best or worst soundtrack. It usually has a few stages with songs that stand out from others, but the rest can be rather forgettable. The same can be said for Tekken 6. It has all the usual techno beats to help make the matches move quickly with the occasional dramatic orchestral songs for the epic stages. But presentation isn't the only reason people come to Tekken.
And it probably isn't story, yet I am inclined to discuss it because of the effort the developers put into it. They didn't put much effort into the story itself, but just in making you play it. Ironically, it is the ugliest mode of the game, in more ways than one. Many of the reviews online have docked the presentation grade mainly because of the absolutely fantastic Scenario Campaign mode. If you couldn't sense the sarcasm I apologize for being unclear. The mode is atrocious. Why they continue to include a Tekken Force beat-em-up mode in each new rendition is unclear to me. It wasn't fun the first few times and it's still a grind here. Granted, this is nowhere nearly as frustrating as it was on the PS2; this one at least has short stages and frequent access to healing items and power-ups. But the mode itself is just bad. The textures and environment are bland and tasteless. The cut-scenes themselves look bad with the bland backgrounds, needless dialogue about issues that pertain little to the current situation. The only thing that really looks any good in this mode is the character lip-movement that matches the different languages each character speaks. The lack of effort put into this mode in comparison to the obvious flair of the fighting environments it makes me ask: Why do they want you to play this mode so badly? It seems weird that for a fighting game like Tekken—meant to be played in the Arcade and VS modes—that the first thing on the main menu to choose from is Scenario Campaign mode. Newcomers may think that it would be like playing a story mode like in Street Fighter where you fight a few matches, then an important rival, then a boss character. Nay, mode is present but any aspect of storyline is unlocked in SC mode.
For those who have followed the somewhat absurd Tekken storyline in the past, part 5 left off with Jin taking control of the Mishima Zaibatsu, Heihachi dead but then not really, and Kazuya dealing with the G-Corporation. In SC mode, you follow the newest characters Lars Alexanderson and Alisa Bosconovich on their rebellion against their extremely long names as well as Jin Kazama's dark reign over the world. A war between the Mishima Zaibatsu and the G-Corporation, now controlled by Kazuya, has left the world in ruins (many of the characters have grudges against Jin because of this) and has brought about the rise of a new evil, a very oversized and, as always, overpowered boss character.
You may be asking: What about the stories of the other characters? What does Eddy Gordo get out of being a playable character rather than just a skin for Cristie? In order to get the storylines of the various characters you MUST play SC mode, fight them in the generic stages of which they are the boss character, then go to the Arena within SC mode and choose that character. Once that is done, you watch a brief prologue of the character's story, then fight four traditional matches (thank goodness it's short) and you get the CG ending for that character. If it sounds convoluted, it is. It may seem tedious to play through all of this to unlock your favorite characters for their story with just Lars, so they make it available for you to choose another character you have already unlocked with whom you might be more familiar. It was actually funny playing through the whole mode with Kazuya to be brought back to Lars' problems in the crappy cut-scenes.
Perhaps what I dislike the most about this mode is how much they reward you for playing it. Adopted and enhanced from Tekken 5, the new customization options available for each character are seemingly limitless. You can change around the colors of the characters' costumes or change them to something else altogether. Don't like the traditional Mishima hairstyle? Change it to some emo hair in front of the face, or shave it off altogether. Don't like Steve Fox's blond hair and Aloha shirt? Give him slick black in a winter vest. Their bodies are your canvas for endless creation! But like all things in life, if you want a haircut, it's going to cost money. You get rewarded some $25,000 (feels more like yen) each time you play through ten rounds arcade mode, which will buy you nothing in customization. Or you could play the Scenario Campaign mode where the generic Jacks drop the different clothing items you would have to pay $100,000 for. And if you finish the level you are rewarded with usually more than $100,000. You get more on a failed level than you do playing through . How infuriating.
But enough about the inferior mode. Versus mode is where this game thrives. Tekken has remained relatively the same in all the years it has existed. Occasionally they mixed things up like in part 4 with the introduction of boundaries and characters like Jin getting a sudden fighting style change. Part 4 stands out in my mind as the best because of its simplicity, it was very much like the first: No overpowered bosses and a small roster. It also had a superb side-stepping system that made many of the most aggressive fighters have to rethink their strategies. Then 5 came along and ruined sidestepping, brought back the massive roster of characters, and bestowed us one of the most annoying final bosses of the Tekken series. Tekken 6 on the surface seems like 5 with its large roster and cheap final boss, yet it does something unexpected. It's very, very balanced.
In previous renditions of Tekken, there were always a few characters that stood out among the rest with their priority and strength. Sure, there are still characters that I would gravitate towards because they're a little more powerful, but the developers managed to even things out a bit so that no one character was stronger than all the others. Some new characters like Lars are just fun mess with for the wild moves, while Feng Wei and Leo are intense power houses showing off some crazy Kenpo moves; and they're strong too. Regardless, it doesn't feel like you could pick Nina and feel like each jab she throws is going to hit first like before. There is no clear winner when it comes to priority in this game.
There are also some interesting mechanics thrown into the mix. I was never a juggling fighter in the past; it was usually too difficult and people who were really good at it pretty much took away any possibility of you winning if they managed to get you in the air. That is still partially true in this installment, but it makes juggling much easier in this so that even a person picking it up for the first time might be able to do some good damage and a five-hit (+) combo with a character in the air. If you want a real vivid and intense example of how the playing mechanics work check out video from these experts: http://www.youtube.com/user/LevelUpYourGame.
Most of the mechanics are typical Tekken and haven't changed over the years. There are still two punch and two kick buttons each corresponding to either the left or right. The main throws of the characters are still the kick and punch button of each side. And if you're familiar at all with the series, you know that the main method of doing damage is through juggling your opponent in the air as long as possible to maintain control of the match. There is a new addition to this juggle physics which is the rebound effect. Sometimes a character will hit the ground with an impact that will cause them to rise up a little. This allows for the attacker to get off one or two more hits. This wouldn't seem like a big deal except that it is a way for those who aren't that skilled at the juggling combos to keep control of the fight a little bit longer.
I've also noticed that many of the combos that were difficult to pull off in previous versions have been given enough leeway for most of the 10-hit combos to come out much more frequently. Timing was always an issue when it came down to these moves, but the window of opportunity to continue the combo has been lengthened, making it easier to do. This leniency is part of why Tekken 6 feels so balanced. Yes, masters will still wipe the floor with new players, but beginners will be able to pull off some of the same crazy moves, making the experience much more exciting.
Ok, so I already discussed the balanced system a little, which would make multiplayer a great experience, right? Well it does so long as you're in the same room together. And it would be a good idea to install the game onto the hard drive of your system because the load times between matches are some of the longest I've ever seen in a fighting game. Even after it's been installed, it still takes a while (the 360 load time is significantly less). But that isn't really the flaw of the multiplayer system.
In my review for Street Fighter IV I said something to the extent that a fighting game of this generation without online support was pointless and unacceptable. Tekken 6 does have online play, but it is not very good. It doesn't quite get to the status of SFIV and doesn't even come close to the support of Blazblue. It is bad when you press the input of a move and can count a full second before your character starts to do anything. This was several hours of the same matches. No chance at pulling off combos, just hoping the other player did a move that had enough recovery time to pull off something devastating. Tekken is not a slow game; a lot of the moves require precise timing. Though the windows have been widened for proper timing in combos, there is no way you can put that into the online modes. Playing opponents online will not make you better at the game, in fact, you may get worse. This still isn't the worst online fighting I've attempted (we'll discuss that next time).
As though the developers foresaw their failings online, they put a mode into the game called "Ghost Battle." This is a mode that takes data of other human players and uses their recorded fighting styles with their characters to build an AI opponent. It sounds weird, but it works to a small degree. Since it is offline, there is no worry when it comes to lag. An AI opponent could never match up to the real thing because they can't adapt to the way you might adjust your style mid-battle. For instance, in a few ghost battles I went up against a Jin AI. He had one particular combo that he frequently used and was very effective. He also used a certain move whenever I side-stepped. So the AI is able to take the way another human being was using this character on a regular basis and map out how he or she responded to different situations and use it as ghost data. I play a certain way with Kazuya so I'm sure my ghost data uses a particular combo a great deal. However, if that combo were not to succeed, the AI is not able to keep itself from continuing to try, regardless of if the other player knows how to cancel it out. A good effort, but it still does not measure up to the real thing.
The game is worth buying. If you like fighting games and want a 3-D fighter that you can pick up and play, this is it. I'd sooner recommend this as entertainment for a party than any other fighter because even the button-mashing players can enjoy this one. It's a shame that the online doesn't work, especially considering all the other fighters that came out in 2009 could have shown the developers what to do and what not to do. But it is the most balanced Tekken has been, maybe ever. If you have friends who love this franchise, you'll undoubtedly enjoy playing one another in a room together. The huge roster is bound to have some characters players will appeal to; plenty of the new characters can hold their own against the ever powerful Mishimas. Considering the number of time's I've seen this game on sale since its release, it is definitely worth picking up.

Use Clorox to make food safe

Dear Editor: There is a simple solution to deadly bacteria on fresh produce such as the ones that recently caused all the problems with spinach.
Rinsing fruit and even such vegetables as lettuce, spinach, etc., with dilute sodium hypochlorite (Clorox) will kill any bacteria and make it safe to eat raw.
The Clorox is easily rinsed from the food, and it leaves no detectable taste. I have been rinsing fresh fruit with undiluted Clorox for years. I also immerse lettuce, etc., into diluted Clorox and then rinse it several times with water, and I am still alive and healthy.
This is a heck of a lot better than taking chances with a lot of misery and possible death from eating greens or fruit contaminated with a highly virulent strain of E. coli.

BEIJING Jaguar Land Rover's Chinese subsidiary will recall 337 cars because of substandard fixings in their brakes and steering boxes, China's national product quality watchdog said on Tuesday.
The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a statement on its website that Jaguar Land Rover's China unit is recalling 190 2012 Evoque and Freelander vehicles produced on June 11 this year.
The agency's statement said the recall was prompted by concerns that substandard fixings in the vehicles' rear brake calipers may lead to brakes failing and sudden tyre deflation.
The agency said another 147 2012 Evoque and 2013 Evoque vehicles made between October 20 and September 18 will also be recalled due to problems in their steering boxes, which contain "security risks".
Jaguar Land Rover, the British luxury marque owned by India's Tata Motors (TAMO.NS), has relied on strong demand over the past year from emerging markets such as China for its luxury SUVs and sleek sedans to offset sluggish growth in developed markets.

Lewis County Sirens news reporter
CHEHALIS – Skeletal remains found in Randle last year have been positively identified as a woman who disappeared from her Randle home about a mile and a half away several months before.
The Lewis County Coroner's Office said this morning they are those of 58-year-old Trisha McKenzie-Fire.
The determination was made through a joint effort by a forensic anthropologist in King County and a local dentist who specializes in making identification through teeth, according to Coroner Warren McLeod.
McKenzie-Fire was reported missing by her live-in boyfriend in April 2011. Kent Anderson said he woke up one morning and she was gone from their home on Silverbrook Road, although she left her purse behind. Human remains were found the following September in a field on Joerk Road in Randle.
The cause and manner of her death remain under investigation, according to McLeod.
Anderson has since died. McLeod said all efforts to locate and notify McKenzie-Fire's next-of-kin have been unsuccessful

Heart of Fame, Book 7
After yet another month without a lead singer, the band Synergy is on the verge of calling it quits. Which drives Jaxon Campbell, keyboardist and perpetual player, to do something dangerous—hit up a woman with contacts—and curves—in all the right places. Trouble is, the last time he saw her, he kind of broke her heart. And stole her cherished, autographed AC/DC album.
Natalie Thorton, Dean of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, knows everyone who's anyone in Australia's music industry. She's driven and utterly professional and doesn't have room in her schedule for relationships.
When Jaxon strides into her office, all of Natalie's suppressed sexual urges—the ones born in Jax's arms—surge to the surface. He wants something from her? Well, she wants something from him. Orgasms. Lots of them.
How can Jax say no? He's never forgotten her, and it's not like they're going to fall in love. But just who's playing who? And whose heart is going to fall first?
Warning: Contains a sexual challenge involving sex in public places, sex in private places, sex in moving cars, sex against windows and sex in the company of an oblivious federal politician. So basically, we're talking about getting laid. A lot.

Who'd a thunk it, eh? I know you will be surprised to know this was my first Lexxie Couper read, considering it is the 7th book in the series. However; I can't resist a book with a rock star and I hoped it could be read as a standalone. Well, my verdict is yes, it can. It made me curious to read about the other band members, and I fully intend to, but I don't feel like I was short-changed at all. I was very impressed with the author's writing. The personality of Jaxon, the sexy tattooed rock star, was so present I could see it and feel it. He made me smile, laugh, snicker, and blush. He had so much energy and sex appeal it just jumped off the pages. I really enjoyed the fact that the characters had history together and their shared memories brought another dimension to their story. I look forward to reading more from this author.
Could all of his family and friends be right? Twenty years ago he had walked out on the one woman that he could never forget no matter how many times he tried with other women. The only thing that he had taken with him was her autograph AC/DC album and the only thing he left was his heart. Jaxon had it all fame, success and as many women as he wanted. But something essential was missing. All of his friends had found their mates only Jaxon was still living the wild rock star lifestyle. When it came time to find a new lead singer for the band he knew there was only one person that could help him. The woman that he had left behind and he didn't know how to approach after twenty years. Natalie had spent the last twenty years completing her schooling, furthering her education and becoming the Dean of a prestigious school of music. She had never completely left behind her first love, Jaxon. Even though at the time neither had spoken of love and forever the feelings were there. Jaxon had slept his way through every city that he had toured with the band. He was continually in trouble with paternity suits, being pursued by the paparazzi and irate fathers. When the need to see Natalie again Jaxon realizes that what has been missing in his life has been direction. The last thing that Jaxon expected Natalie to ask in return for her help was organisms for names. For each organism he gives her, she will give him a name of a possible new lead singer. Natalie's rational is this will finally get him out of her system and at the same time give her revenge for him taken the album. What can possibly go wrong with this plan? Read the book and find out how these two settle the past and look toward the future. Overall Rating: 4 Rockin' Stars Hero –Jaxon Campbell: 4 stars Heroine –Natalie Thorton: 4 stars Steam: 4 stars Plot: 4 stars Cliffhanger: No Would I recommend this book: Yes! This is book is funny, sexy and incredibly hot! It is about a sexy rock star and the woman that he left behind. Would I recommend this author: Yes! Loved this author and her amazing sense of humor and the well written sexy sex! ***Received an ARC of this book from the Author in exchange for an honest review***

NicOx inked an option agreement to purchase ophthalmology firm Altacor for £11 million, and has made an initial £2 million investment to purchase an initial 11.8% stake. France-based NicOx says the move represents the first step in its strategy to generate a late-stage development and commercial ophthalmology business, and provide an established infrastructure in the U.K. and Ireland as a base for future product launches. The firm is separately evaluating other ophthalmic acquisition and in-licensing prospects in the U.S. and Europe, including therapeutics, diagnostics, and devices.
Altacor currently markets prescription and OTC products for the treatment of dry eye in the U.K. and Ireland, and has a diverse late-stage pipeline including a Phase III-stage surgical antiseptic candidate ALT-005, and a device for inserting intraocular lenses. If NicOx does exercise its option to buy Altacor outright, the latter could receive up to another £8.5 million in pre-agreed milestones.
NicOx is leveraging its nitric oxide-donating R&D platform to develop drugs for the inflammatory and cardiometabolic indications and ophthalmic disorders. The firm's lead ophthalmology candidate BOL-303259-X (previously known as NCX 116) is a nitric oxide-donating prostaglandin F2-alpha analog, which is in development for the potential treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. In March 2010 the candidate was licensed to Bausch + Lomb, which has completed a successful Phase IIb study, and confirmed plans to progress the candidate into Phase III trials. "The positive topline results from the Phase IIb study conducted with [email protected]
NicOx is in addition looking to develop NO-donating compounds for the treatment of diabetic macular edema, and is looking for partners for the diabetic retinopathy R&D program, including lead candidate NCX 434. The firm says estimates suggest the global ophthalmic market was worth some $16.2 billion in 2010, and is expected to reach $21.1 billion by 2016, with an average annual growth rate of 4.5% per year.

ThromboGenics Falls After FDA Questions Eye Drug Effects
ThromboGenics NV fell the most in seven weeks in Brussels trading after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said it had concerns about the safety of the Belgian company's ocriplasmin injectable eye drug.
ThromboGenics dropped 6.4 percent to 23.41 euros, the biggest decline since June 5. That pared the stock's gain this year to 24 percent, valuing the Heverlee-based drugmaker at 838.4 million euros ($1 billion).
Side effects including eye pain, perceived flashes of light, blurred vision and impaired vision happened two to four times more often in patients receiving ocriplasmin than those getting a placebo in a trial, FDA staff said in a report today in advance of a July 26 meeting of agency advisers on approving the injection.
"These adverse events may be transient and cause no long term harm to the retina," the report authors wrote. "However, this conclusion can not be made definitively based on the data available."
ThromboGenics is applying for U.S. approval of the drug, which it proposed selling under the brand name Jetrea, to treat vitreomacular adhesion, a condition where a gel inside the eye liquefies and eventually collapses. The illness leads to distorted vision, age- and diabetes-related macular conditions and tears in the retina. Injecting the drug into the back of the eye can eliminate the need for expensive and debilitating surgery in some patients.
The FDA is scheduled to decide on the ocriplasmin application by Oct. 17 after assessing the results of the July 26 panel meeting.
'Nothing to Worry About'
The report is "nothing to worry about," ThromboGenics Chief Financial Officer Chris Buyse said in a telephone interview today.
"Usually these types of documents are rather critical by nature," Buyse said. "Reading through these documents, we feel that there is nothing that is not addressable. We remain confident that Thursday everything will be all right."
The report posed a question for the July 26 panel: "Are additional studies needed prior to approval to evaluate the safety of ocriplasmin's effect on the retina?" Additional studies could lead to a two-year delay in the drug's approval, but are unlikely, Philippa Gardner, an analyst at Jefferies International in London, wrote in a note today.
"We believe the panel may recommend post-marketing studies to evaluate this potential effect, rather than additional studies prior to approval," Gardner wrote.
Novartis AG bought marketing rights for the drug outside the U.S. in March in a deal worth as much as 375 million euros. The European Medicines Agency accepted ocriplasmin for review in October. ThromboGenics has said it expects that regulator's approval by the end of this year to enter a European market the company estimates at 600 million euros annually.

Lisbon's cultural and bohemian heart; nightlife and shopping mecca
BAIRRO ALTO is a picturesque working class quarter dating from the 16th century that has traditionally been the city's bohemian haunt of artists and writers.
Its grid of streets is quiet during the day, but is transformed at night into the city's vibrant nightlife quarter. Behind colorful and graffiti-ridden façades is a variety of traditional and international restaurants, tourist-packed Fado Houses, and a multitude of bars and alternative shops that stay open until late at night. Throughout the week, and especially on weekends you'll find people of all ages, backgrounds, and lifestyles bar-hopping through the cobbled lanes or standing outside with a drink in hand enjoying the city's usual mild nights.
The main commercial streets are Rua do Norte, Rua da Atalaia, and Rua do Diario de Noticias, from where it is easy to reach Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara (a garden-terrace with a panoramic view over the city), and two of the city's most interesting churches: São Roque with its magnificent baroque interior and the romantic Gothic ruins of Carmo Church.
Chiado shops Neighboring CHIADO is an elegant, sophisticated district of theaters, bookshops, old-style cafes, art nouveau jewelry shops, luxurious international names such as Hermes, and local treasures such as the opulently gilded Tavares Rico Restaurant opened in 1784, the fine porcelain shop Vista Alegre, or one of Portugal's international fashion designers, Ana Salazar.
Much of the area was destroyed in a fire in 1988, but has since been reborn. It remains one of Lisbon's most beloved districts, with reminders of its past as the center of the city's intellectual life, with statues of literary figures such as Fernando Pessoa, Luis de Camões, and Eça de Queiroz.
Up the hill is PRINCIPE REAL, an area known for its antique and interior design shops on Rua Dom Pedro V and Rua da Escola Politecnica, and also for being the city's gay quarter with a number of gay bars and clubs. In the streets from the Principe Real Garden down to the riverfront, especially in Rua de São Marçal, are attractive 19th century townhouses and some of the most tranquil spots in the city, such as the leafy Praça das Flores.

Ana, es una anfitriona estupenda, muy atenta y servicial. El pequeño apartamento es PERFECTO, no le falta ningun tipo de detalle ( tal y como se muestra en las fotos). Esta ubicado perfectamente para conocer Lisboa y alrededores. Totalmente recomendable para parejas que como nosotros ha decidido pasar unos días de vacaciones allí.
Muchas gracias por todo Ana. Volveremos pronto
Estuve con mi pareja 4 días en Lisboa. La casa es pequeñita, pero muy acogedora, y tiene de todo. Ana, la dueña, es encantadora, te ayuda en lo que necesitas, y siempre esta disponible. Muchisimas gracias Ana!!! SIN DUDA VOLVEREMOS.
El estudio es minúsculo como todo en Lisboa. Tiene todo lo necesario y está en pleno casco viejo. Ana fue una muy buena anfitriona y mantiene el apartamento en perfectas condiciones de uso. Estuvimos en marzo y tuvimos todo lo necesario. Pudimos aparcar, todo y que es una calle sin salida y cabe combinar con otros vecinos poder hacer maniobras. A pocos metros, parada del tranvía 28. Cama cómoda cocina pequeña pero completa y baño agradable, todo muy bien decorado
Un Alloggio adatto alle nostre esigenze, pulito e con tutto ciò che serve per 2 persone. Ana è stata molto cordiale e gentile con noi. Molto flessibile sià per il check in che per il check out, La ringraziamo ancora.

Magnifica ubicación, al lado de la plaza de Camoes y con todo a mano.
Con Ana todo fueron facilidades, si vas en coche el lugar es perfecto, sin duda repetiria.
Very nice appartment with enough space, for us it was ideally located between Barrio Alto and Belem. Also busses, trams and S-Bahn type railways (not on weekends) are within walking distance. So, no Problem that the Apartment is not located directly in the city centre (by the way, we walked (!) several times back from Barrio Alto to the apartment); at least in our view the location is an advantage. - And not to forget to mention: Also Ana is very kind.
Perfect flat for a couple, clean and placed on a quien place. Next to a train station, so you will be in Belem or the centre in 10 minutes. Ana is an attentive and gentle guest. Her recommendation allow us to know one of the places we enjoy the most. Highly recommended. We will repeat when we come black Lisbon.
We had nice days in Lisboa, Ana was very friendly and her flat was beautyfull for our stay. In the Alfama, you can go to every place and dont need any transportation, nice restaurants close to the accomodation- I can recommand this adress! Thank you, Ana!
This is the second time that I've stayed in this apartment. The first was two years ago. Since then, the bathroom has been remodeled and new furniture added. The improvements have made it even more modern and comfortable, and I highly recommend it, not only for the apartment itself, but also for its central location. The owner, Henrique, was easy to work with; and the manager's husband, Ricardo, who met us on arrival, was friendly, helpful and accommodating. I rated the apartment a 10 two years ago; and if there was a rating of 11, I'd do that now. Like I said, I highly recommend it.
The flat was immaculate and very homely. Everything we needed was at hand. It is well situated for transport and restaurants, in the heart of beautiful Alfama. The shower was fantastic and I could not recommend higher, I hope to come back soon. Ana, the host was very helpful and very easy to communicate with, all round 10/10
