Models and Planning for Climate Change
I have written many blogs about models and modeling of climate. My collection includes a 2012 tutorial approach where I show that climate modeling is the process of calculating a budget, with many similarities to keeping the balance of a checking account (Introduction and end). In 2012, I wrote a piece on uncertainties in models and a number of ways to evaluate and to place model uncertainty in decision making. In 2011, I wrote a piece about the controversial subject of validation of climate models.
There is regular publication of papers about models, their evaluation and their potential usefulness in planning for climate change. I want to mention a couple of them in this blog. The first is a paper by Elisabeth Lloyd, who is a philosopher at the University of Indiana. "In Confirmation and Robustness of Climate Models", Lloyd investigates the robustness of climate models in a formal way. Robustness is related to a set of common outcomes that follow from model simulations. In this case the common outcome is that given an increase in greenhouse gases, then the set of models determine that the average surface temperature of the Earth will rise. Underlying this determination of robustness is the fact that all of the climate models are designed to represent the laws of physics that represent the balance of energy (see the tutorial series). There is a requirement that "greenhouse gases relate in a law-like interaction with the energy budget of the earth." Then, given the fact that the representation of these laws by a number of models from independent research organizations leads to the same outcome, that the planet will warm, then it is very likely that these models are a robust representation of what will happen in the real world. The size of the temperature increase has meaningful uncertainty; however, that there will be significant heating is of little doubt.
Lloyd's arguments are not simply based on the fact that all climate models say that the Earth will warm as greenhouse gases increase. Lloyd lays out three fundamental ways to confirm the performance of climate models. The first line of confirmation is how well do the models fit the observations? This is the most common, most natural way of confirming model performance. How well a model fits the observations is, however, always open for arguments. There is always some difference between model simulations and observations. This difference fuels the arguments about whether or not the models are correct enough to provide actionable information (telescope simile in this blog). The other lines of confirmation that Lloyd relies on are varieties of evidence and independent support. Independent support is, basically, that sources of information that are fundamentally unrelated lead to the same conclusion. It is the convergence of all of these pieces of information with the fact that many models give the same basic outcome that supports Lloyd's conclusion that robustness is a positive virtue in assessing the quality of climate models.
Lloyd's conclusion is a formalized statement that if models consistently represent an outcome then we have more confidence that the model is correct, than if the models are inconsistent. As the regional details of model simulations are considered, for example what will happen to the water levels in the Great Lakes, models are often more inconsistent in their behavior. This inconsistency is a flag of uncertainty, or a lack of robustness. There are many lines of scientific and experiential evidence that increasing greenhouse gases will lead to warming of the Earth's surface, the melting of water stored as ice and the rising of sea level. These conclusions are highly robust.
The other paper I describe is an opinion piece, "Can We Trust Climate Models," by J. C. Hargreaves and J. D. Annan. In this piece are a number of elements in common with the Lloyd piece, namely the discussion of the independence of models and information. They conclude that the broad predictions of surface warming, melting ice and rising sea level are robust because of their consistency with underlying physical principles. They also state that the models are not robust on regional scales.
Hargreaves and Annan add to the argument the idea of posing alternative descriptions, hypotheses and theories to describe observations of the climate. Climate models can be viewed in many ways. They are a mathematical description of our knowledge of the climate. They are also a way to organize and manage the complexity of describing the Earth's climate and how it will evolve. What Hargreaves and Annan pose is that if the errors and uncertainties of climate models were too grievous, then they would invite alternative descriptions. Indeed, some of the pieces that make up a climate model do invite alternative descriptions, which is what drives model development and improvements. Observation-based, rational pursuit of alternative descriptions frequently lead to new insights about processes, for example, the partitioning of water in clouds between vapor, liquid and ice. However, the underlying principles of the model the conservations of energy, mass and momentum have proved to be quite robust. The observable and resolvable attributes of the climate, for example the fluid flow that describes the motion of the atmosphere and the oceans, which provide the connections between the pieces, have proved to be resilient against alternative descriptions.
Given the vast amount of observations of the climate and the thousands of researchers who have invested their competitive personalities in exploration and investigation of the climate, it is unlikely that fundamentally different quantitative descriptions of the Earth's climate will be found. This assertion is supported by the successes of climate models, which have been confirmed in several independent ways. Affirming the successes of climate models is the ability of the models to present complex patterns of behavior that have been simulated, predicted and observed, making it highly unlikely that alternative explanations will be found of the changes being observed in the Earth's weather and climate.
Is this actionable knowledge? The answer for many is an, obvious, yes, because people, corporations and governments are taking actions. What is missing in action is any rational, national or global approach to reduce emissions and, therefore, to bound the changes to our weather and climate as incremental changes to our history of the past few centuries. This leads to a situation where the actions that we take are in many ways temporary patches, because over decades and the next few centuries, we will be reliably warming up and sea level will relentlessly rise. There is much more difficultly predicting changes to ecosystems, agriculture, pathogens, political systems and nations. This will require anticipation, to which models will contribute, and the willingness and flexibility to spend on adaptive strategies if we are to obtain societal stability. Those who view models as providing actionable knowledge are more likely to succeed. Otherwise, we will be like those who lived on the shore of modern Turkey at the end of last glacial period, chasing the retreating glaciers and their water into the mountains with their goats and sheep (Sagalassos).

June hadn't expected to be spending her sophomore summer of college at home, but that's exactly where she was headed, to her parent's house in blistering hot Chandler, Arizona. She hadn't been home all year, and would have spent the summer break getting drunk with her friends if Chad hadn't ruined it by breaking up with her. They'd argued over who should drop out of the planned extended vacation, but in the end June had been the one to bow out, her heart too broken to fight with him any longer. He'd ruined everything, and now not only was she boyfriendless, but she had no friends back home to help keep her occupied while she got over the breakup.
It was only late may, but the temperature in Arizona today soared well over the hundred degree mark. June winced as she drove up main street, taking note that absolutely nothing had changed in the year she hadn't been home. The buildings were just as weathered with age, and unlike Miami there were no throngs of young twenty-somethings milling about, just simply enjoying the day. Even a trip to the mall to buff up her wardrobe for next school year didn't sound appealing. Going anywhere like that alone seemed as forlorn as being single and boyfriendless.
June tried to put the thought from her mind as she turned onto Dixie Lane, her eyes rolling at the abundance of lawn ornaments decorating their neighbors front yard. The Grady's had added at least ten more since she'd last been here, and the place was starting to look like a Halloween Christmas special all jammed into one. Her parent' split level house still looked the same though, but both of her parents cars were missing from the open two car garage. June frowned as she pulled into the space just under her little brother's old basketball court. Her parents never left the garage open unless they were home, and her little brother should have been in school. He'd just turned eighteen last month, but he wouldn't graduate for another few weeks, and he would never skip. He was the exact opposite of June, bookish, never had a girlfriend, and happy to follow their parents every rule.

Every capital budget project is assigned a useful or economic life. This useful life is either determined by the firm or prescribed by the income tax codes, depending on whether the useful life is used for managerial reporting or paying taxes.

Capital projects compete for scarce funds and usually require economic analysis to justify their capitalization (typically funding with borrowed money). The analysis will compare projects against one another and against a predetermined acceptable standard. Capital budgeting seeks to answer three main questions:
Capital budgeting encompasses all steps and processes involved in planning and programming expenditures for ventures (projects, campaigns, etc.) whose initial investment requirements and subsequent cash flows are expected to exceed the monetary and scheduling bounds of the operating budget.
Capital budget projects do not just appear from thin air; they are most often the result of creative and innovative thinking by managers charged with accomplishing the firm's goals and objectives in the most cost-effective manner possible. Not all capital project decision-making depends on capital budgeting. Mandated "decisions" or required projects with no alternatives are usually "no-brainers" and don't merit the time and effort required for a meaningful capital budget analysis.
Don't be misled by the word "budgeting." FMs are so often engaged in developing and executing operating budgets that [they] begin to narrow [their] definition to that specific application. Remember that budgeting is merely a management tool used for planning and controlling.
The Basics of Capital BudgetingEvery capital budget project is assigned a useful or economic life. This useful life is either determined by the firm or prescribed by the income tax codes, depending on whether the useful life is used for managerial reporting or paying taxes. This is the number of years the investment can be expected to bring in adequate positive cash inflows or otherwise benefit the company. The useful life assigned to a project is often shorter than its maximum possible life. This is done for several reasons:
The useful life is that time period during which the company expects to make profitable or otherwise beneficial use of the investment. The end of an investment's useful life is called the investment horizon. Beyond that point in time, predictions regarding cash flows are not clearly visible or discernable.
The concept of the time value of money is based on the premise that money can be safely invested and grow to a larger amount at some time in the future. This means that an amount of money today can be considered equivalent to a future larger amount. Conversely, a larger future amount of money can be considered equivalent to a smaller present amount. The amount of money we have today or the equivalent of a larger future amount of money "brought back" to today's value is called its present value. Logically, a future amount of money is called a future value or future worth.
As private citizens, we are rewarded by the time value of money concept whenever we invest in a savings account or buy a savings bond and receive a greater sum of money in the future than we invested in the present. Conversely we are "penalized" by the time value of money concept whenever we use a loan to buy a car or take a mortgage on a house and end up paying a larger future amount for the item (over time) than its present value at the time of purchase.
The time value of money principles can be applied to two different types of dollar amounts: single sums or periodic sums. A single or lump sum investment is illustrated by a present-day deposit made in a savings account that is then left untouched to accumulate interest. A periodic sum investment or annuity is illustrated by a 401k retirement plan, where a number of fixed (predetermined) deposits are made over a period of years to a savings account on a regular, periodic basis. Both investments are expected to grow to larger future amounts than would be possible without investing; only the timing of the investment(s) is essentially different.
In capital budgeting, a lump sum amount may be represented by the initial cost of the investment (present value) or the investment's eventual salvage value (future value). Annuities could represent the stream of future periodic costs (maintenance) and benefits (sales) expected to accrue over the investment's useful life.
Capital Budgeting RisksA high element of risk surrounds capital budget decision-making for several reasons:
Types of Projects, DecisionsMost capital budget investments center around the following types of revenue-/cost-saving asset decisions:

What a Samsung Purchase of BlackBerry Could Mean for Both Companies
What a Samsung Purchase of BlackBerry Could Mean for Both CompaniesBy Todd R. Weiss
BlackBerry's Enterprise-Ready Smartphones Still ShineBlackBerry released its latest smartphones, the $449 BlackBerry Classic and the $599 BlackBerry Passport, in the second half of 2014. Its devices provide an enterprise-centric approach that could help Samsung bring in more enterprise customers.
BlackBerry's Deep Enterprise History Is StrongBlackBerry was founded in 1984 under its former Research In Motion (RIM) persona, and the BlackBerry name and product line was first introduced in 1999. Now called BlackBerry, that legacy could be an important attribute to Samsung customers.
BlackBerry's Enterprise Security Features Bolster SamsungIn November 2014, BlackBerry updated and enlarged its broad BES enterprise mobile security portfolio through the introduction of new products, ranging from the latest BES 12 Enterprise Mobile Management platform to an Android security partnership with Samsung.
BlackBerry's Reputation for Quality ContinuesAnother big gain for Samsung if it acquires BlackBerry is the company's reputation for quality and performance. For years, its devices were the "enterprise gold standard" for mobile business communications. Though it lost tremendous market share to Apple and others, that reputation is largely intact.
BlackBerry's Patent Portfolio Has Value for SamsungBack in August 2013, several IT analysts told eWEEK that BlackBerry's mobile technology and security patents at the time could be worth some $10 billion if the company were sold. Those patents—for BES, devices and much more—would bring huge value to Samsung.
Samsung Could See Increased Enterprise Market ShareIf Samsung buys BlackBerry, it would give existing Samsung customers a wider portfolio of products to choose from, particularly when it comes to BlackBerry's enterprise-aimed smartphones and mobile device management applications. This could be huge for both firms.
BlackBerry CEO John Chen Is Admired, TrustedAny deal would be even better if BlackBerry's CEO, John Chen, stayed after a merger. Chen is a huge part of the company's recent resurgence, and he is trusted and admired by business users. He's a bit of a rock star in the staid business world and would be a valuable asset for Samsung.
Samsung Gains Enterprise Devices Without Lots of Product OverlapThe existing smartphones of Samsung and BlackBerry are different enough that they wouldn't have huge overlap. Sure, Samsung has its enterprise-aimed Galaxy Note 5 phablet, but it's different enough from the BlackBerry Passport in size and keyboard to not cannibalize sales.
Samsung-BlackBerry Synergies Could Be a Big BoonThe double-barreled marketing, reputation and distribution synergies that could come from such a merger should not be minimized or overlooked. Both well-known corporate names could gain goodwill, increased trust and deeper user bases if they join up, and that could be worthwhile.
Samsung has fired the IT world's first major takeover salvo of 2015 with a rumored $7.5 billion acquisition offer for enterprise communications company BlackBerry, according to a Jan. 14 report by Reuters. Both Samsung and BlackBerry deny the report, but those denials certainly haven't quieted the intriguing possibilities that surround such a potential buyout. With that in mind, this slide show looks at what a BlackBerry acquisition could bring to Samsung and vice versa. Samsung, the world's dominant mobile phone maker, has been hit in recent years by growing competition from Chinese manufacturers, which has been cutting into Samsung's profits. At the same time, BlackBerry has been dealing with its own difficult financial matters for the last several years after falling from the pinnacle of the enterprise smartphone world. A merger of the two could bring a deeper involvement with security-conscious enterprise customers to Samsung while BlackBerry could gain market power and influence from becoming a part of Samsung. Here is our early analysis of such a merger.

Gorilla Biology by Andrea B. Taylor
Book DescriptionGorillas are one of our closest living relatives, the largest of all living primates, and teeter on the brink of extinction. These fascinating animals are the focus of this in-depth and comprehensive examination of gorilla biology. Gorilla Biology combines recent research in morphology, genetics and behavioural ecology to reveal the complexity and diversity of gorilla populations. The first section focuses on morphological and molecular variation and underscores the importance of understanding diverse biological patterns at all levels in testing evolutionary and adaptive hypotheses and elucidating subspecies and species diversification. Following are discussions of the ecological constraints that influence gorilla social organization and highlight their surprising flexibility. The book ends with discussions of the conservation status of gorillas and the many and increasing threats to their continued survival. Giving insight into the evolutionary biology of these unique primates, this book will be essential reading for primatologists, anthropologists and evolutionary biologists.

Top 10 Worst Mistakes a Poker Player Can Make: Part 3September 26th, 2016 by Justin Buchanan
Zooming right along, it's time for the 6th and 5th items in the Ace Who's Full Of It's Top Ten Worst Mistakes a Poker Player Can Make. Even though the mistakes I've shown you so far are extremely avoidable, I would hesitate to call them more than moderately stupid or else the consequences of making them are not particularly dire. Right now is when things get truly serious. For instance, this next mistake should never, under any circumstances, be committed unless you literally have to.
#6: Acting on low or no information about your opponent
I don't care who you are. I don't care what you're doing. I don't care what you want out of life. Knowledge. Is. King. Whether you're playing poker, making a sports bet, interviewing for a job, buying a car or house or insurance, working on a big presentation, going on a date, going out to eat, going from any point A to any point B, I could go on like this for hours but the joke played out three examples ago, knowledge is the ultimate power. It doesn't matter what cards you have. It doesn't matter if you're on the luckiest streak of your life. If the knowledge gap between you and the people you're playing against is big enough, you will lose. If you know your enemy's playstyle and can keep them from figuring out yours, you can beat them, I don't care who they are.
For crying out loud, most players at most stakes hardly even bother to hide their true playstyle! Online or live, there is no excuse sufficient enough for just charging in blindly at the table. The only reason this item is as low as #6 is because there are times you just have no choice but to just go with what info you have at the time, like if you're at 5 BB or less in an MTT and you switched tables not long ago, or you're dealt AA.
But seriously, if you're going to win, you NEED information. I can't say this enough. And again, this is only the 6th item on this list.
#5: Folding to a min bet on the river
There's a reason that folding to a min bet on the river is above the previous item. That being, it's exactly like the previous item, but worse. "But Ace!" I hear you saying, you silly donkey, "I was bluffing the whole time! Or I missed my draw completely and I have nothing!" I don't give a crap. Unless someone has an incredibly reliable tell, seeing another player's cards at showdown is the most valuable possible piece of information you can obtain. So what if you lose one more big blind? You can now go over the player's behavior through the entire hand knowing what cards he or she had.
There is no better way to determine what kind of moves they favor making than to actually see the cards they're making those moves with. There's an entire metagame at the WSOP November Nine final table based around gathering the back data from the live broadcast that reveals players hole cards. That's why they have it on a 30 minute delay. I know that if I make it there, I'm going to have several friends standing by like a freaking mission control and every time we reach a break, I'm calling them to find out any notable diversions from standard play they spotted. Sure the info is 30 minutes old but it's still good. And I fully expect most, if not all my opponents would be taking similar action.
In case I haven't made it clear: If you see a chance to gain such high quality information for the cost of just one big blind, YOU BLOODY WELL TAKE IT.

Jury Finds That Motorola Breached FRAND Obligations By Offering Microsoft A License At An Unreasonable Royalty Rate – On September 4, 2013, a Jury in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington returned a unanimous Verdict finding that Motorola breached its FRAND commitments to the IEEE and International Telecommunications Union ("ITU") by offering to license certain of its declared standard-essential patents to Microsoft at an unreasonable royalty rate. Months earlier, the District Court in that case ruled that Motorola entered into binding contractual commitments to the IEEE and ITU and to Microsoft (as a third-party beneficiary to the contract) to license its declared essential patents on FRAND terms, but denied summary judgment on the issue of whether Motorola's allegedly unreasonable offer letters were a per se breach of its FRAND obligations. In addition to finding that the offer letters to Microsoft constituted a breach of Motorola's FRAND commitments, the Jury determined that Motorola's conduct in seeking injunctive relief from a German court violated Motorola's duty of good faith and fair dealing with respect to the IEEE and ITU. Microsoft was awarded $11.5 million in damages for costs incurred as a foreseeable result of Motorola's breach of its contractual commitment to the ITU. The Jury also awarded Microsoft over $3 million in attorney fees and litigation costs. The case is Microsoft v. Motorola, No. 2:10-cv-1823 (W.D. Wash.).
Public Version Of Commission Opinion In First 100-Day ID Procedure Issues In 874 Investigation – On September 3, 2013, the Commission issued a public version of its Opinion in Certain Products Having Laminated Packaging, Laminated Packaging, And Components Thereof, Inv. No. 337-TA-874. The Commission affirmed the ALJ's implementation of the first 100-Day ID Procedure and ID finding that the economic prong of the domestic industry requirement was not satisfied, thereby terminating the investigation with a finding of no violation of Section 337. The Commission also addressed the ID's finding that the Commission lacked authority under the Constitution, the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA") and Commission Rules to direct issuance of an early ID. The Commission stated that "the ID provides no authority to support its conclusion that a complainant in a Section 337 investigation has a constitutionally-protected interest in obtaining a hearing to address all the issues in an investigation instead of a proceeding that prioritizes one issue that portends to be dispositive, with the remaining issues deferred depending on the resolution of the potentially dispositive issue." The Commission further held that it was not required to "go through notice-and-comment rulemaking pursuant to section 4 of the APA" before it could implement the 100-Day Procedure, because procedural rules have always been exempt from the APA requirement of informal rulemaking. Finally, the Commission held that conducting an expedited proceeding to resolve a dispositive issue, in the interest of orderly administration of an investigation, is not in conflict with preexisting Commission Rules and is "no different from each ALJ's institution of 'ground rules' supplemental to Commission rules at the outset of each investigation."

The upcoming Ryu Ga Gotoku 3 gets just that. The SEGA PS3 exclusive will launch with an 80GB PS3 pack. Advertisement Priced at ¥45,980 (US$492.77), the bundle is cheaper than buying the game and console separately. Dubbed the Ryu Ga Gotoku 3 Rising Dragon Pack, it includes a copy of the game and an 80GB Ceramic White PS3 with dragon design on the console's body.SEGA and Sony haven't yet released pictures of the 80GB dragon console, which is limited to only 10,000 units. No worries — they still have time. The game (and bundle) won't be out in Japan until February 26, 2009.Reply28 repliesLeave a reply

Read an Excerpt
Russ Masters' anger had anger. To top it all off he was unsure of himself for the first time since becoming the alpha of his pack. Things had been fucked up from the day he had that first premonition. Damn the Ancients for making his life hell. It was hard enough taking care of a pack of unruly wolves, but add in war and magic and he was screwed.
And now he was whining. God damn it. Russ slammed his hand on the wall nearest him. He'd escaped to his rooms after the last meeting of the pack before Zareb and the bunch left for Africa.
And wasn't that a fucking joke. Why was he even alpha? No magic to speak of and one of his betas was swimming in power. Shit. He needed to stop the pity train, but it was a downward slope he couldn't seem to get off.
His very first vision did not warn him of all that was to come, but wasn't that just like the Ancients. They liked mystery and making you work for the information. Nothing was ever easy with them. He needed to get over the injustice of it all, but it stuck in his craw that he was being put in second place. How could he compete with Zareb? The man was born before Russ was even thought of. Hell, before Russ' great-grandparents were even thought of. Zareb was strong, magical and a leader. When he returned from his journey, Russ would turn the pack over to him. He really didn't think he had a choice in the matter. He was weak and weak didn't cut it in his world. Nope. The weak died.
A knock on the door pulled him out of his doom and gloom. He put his alpha face on and tamped down on the negativity. It was bad enough he doubted himself; he didn't need the rest of the pack to feel it.
He didn't expect to see Ive walk into the room. He thought they were done talking. She wasn't even part of his pack. The fox shifter should have never shown up then some of the mess he was in would have been avoided.
"I needed to speak to you privately before we left." Ive moved to the lounger he had by the window.
She looked comfortable in her surroundings. Hell, she'd probably make a better alpha then him, she had the balls for it. Russ had to stifle a chuckle. At least some semblance of a good mood was returning.
"I thought you said all you were going to." Russ got back to business.
"No. This is personal and involves my tribe."
Russ didn't know what that had to do with him. Her tribe was hundreds of miles away and none of his concern. Russ waited expectantly. He wouldn't force her to talk.
"I'm sorry we brought this to your door, but we didn't think we had a choice." She knotted her hands together nervously. It was the first time he'd seen her unsure of herself.
"You've said all this already. Was there something new you needed?"
"Don't—" Ive looked down at her hands. "Don't blame Vivian. She cautioned against us coming, but I convinced her."
Vivian. Another problem he didn't need that Ive had brought to his door. Things would have been different if they had both stayed home.
"It is what it is, there is no blame. You were called to your mate. That's natural." Russ assured her as best he could.
"I'm glad you see it that way, but there are others who don't. My tribe doesn't believe in inter-species relations. They aren't going to be happy you're a wolf and they will come hunting for Vivian."
"You worry about the trip to Africa and your mate. I'll take care of things here." Russ moved to help her out of the chair. "You need to be going now. I'm sure the others from the pack who are going are waiting for you. We'll be here when you return." He walked her to the door and closed it.
It was good that he could help someone else. For the first time in weeks he felt like the head of his pack. Maybe he should go to the gym and work some of his tension away. He was tired of dwelling on the past and other people's lives. Nothing ended the way he thought it would. Dmitri wasn't the bad guy and after all this time he was deflated. The goal had been to take Dmitri down for the hell he'd put the tribe through. But to find out Dmitri was a soul who possessed someone else stopped all thoughts of ending the man's life. Russ' visions told him that Dmitri would die at the pack's hands.
Technically that was true, Dmitri was dead, his spirit once again trapped, leaving the true soul to have his body back. Djimon couldn't help it that when the pack looked at him they saw Dmitri, the man intent on destroying them all. Nothing was as it seemed. That, he should be used to.
Yep, time for the gym. He was sick of hearing himself think. He wanted to exhaust himself enough that he could sleep peacefully tonight.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Looked at a youtube review and the game looks good. However with Earthrise being released soon, how is the PvP in this game? Does it have any purpose?
Last I checked it was more an alliance vs alliance PvP than a faction vs faction. If you're asking for balance, there are always people moaning about how melee vs pistols vs rifles is unbalanced.
Now, if you're asking whether it's fun, no idea.
I am more asking if there is any point to it, other than it being fun. Like holding some territory is actually holds some in game value or is it just for bragging rights?
Yes, you can hold territory for your guild/ alliance, but in terms of Lineage, aka restrict access to those you don't want in by force of arms. Not as in holding a castle and lock the doors.
Hm sounds interesting. But then again Earthrise release is just around the corner, and it is supposed to be PvP centric.
Well, at the time I left FE was more of a crafter's paradise. The world feeling was also very prominent. Target and aiming though needs some getting used to. Melee is the easiest of the three gun choices, pistols chew ammo compared to rifles, but are more forgiving with misses.

There are some materials that are only available in conflict areas. This has sometimes motivated fights. But ya mostly bragging rights.
"Never met a pack of humans that were any different. Look at the idiots that get elected every couple of years. You really consider those guys more mature than us? The only difference between us and them is, when they gank some noobs and take their stuff, the noobs actually die." - Madimorga
When I was there (Oct/Nov 2010) there wasn't a lot of motivation behind the PVP, but there were supposed to be updates coming that would improve on it.
That said, I doubt any game not designed for PVP from the ground up will every truely match the experience of one that is (like perhaps Earthrise) so I'd probably say hold out for that one.
My biggest issue with FE was once I got past level 25 or so I ran into a real wasteland, in terms of no players around anywhere and every clan I tried to join was a dying entity that was struggling to retain members (because they were leaving the game, not because they were going to other clans)
Maybe its better now, but back when I left it was discouraging. Shame really, because I did enjoy the game, but you can't have an MMORPG w/o at least some folks to hang around with.
On hiatus from EVE Online since Dec 2016 - Screw off-grid PVE boosting changes
Pouring on extra "Salt" for 2017
In my day MMORPG's were so hard we fought our way through dungeons in the snow, uphill both ways.

"This is the most intelligent, well qualified and articulate response to a post I have ever seen on these forums. It's a shame most people here won't have the attention span to read past the second line." - Anon
They have been increasing the importance of pvp goals in the game over time and will increase it more in the current plans.
As you control pvp areas you increase a bonus for all members of the faction the area's are controlled by, very similar to the bonuses you got from holding keeps and relics in daoc but not as dramatic as the relic bonuses there.
If I understood the last interview with the lead dev right then they will merge crafting and PvP on a personal level where you can via crafting upgrade faction armors but you need pvp in order to get the materials or recipes.
Even though they have revamped the entire damage system they are still not finished with the current rewamp of the combat. At the moment you need to click way too many abilities constantly while at the same time manually aim and that kind of combat is simply too frustrating for most people to enjoy. So they are going to change abilities so there will be fewer but more dramatic abilities to use and the manual movements and aiming will become more important . But they are not there yet and it could easily take months before we see it.
"You are the hero our legends have foretold will save our tribe, therefore please go kill 10 pigs."
to be honest with you PvP is real bad in this game.
It is sort of an after thought. It is so badly planned and drawn up it makes me shiver to even atempt it again.
1/ Blood sports lvl 40-50(same for all other lvls too), a level 40 cannot damage a lvl 45+, lvls 40-44 are just cannon fodder.
2/ The PvP'ers have lost the plot, they now even attack their own faction! without penalty, its everyman for himself?, nope it has become a clan war, the travellers always have the main Haietta 40-50 conflict town under their control and thats about it, nobody else is big enough to take em on. If you enter the zone they kill you on sight and mark your whole clan KOS. These guys are real pvpers, but the system is so missmatched and bug ridden these guys know all the ways to cheat!"
3/ the rest of the game is very good, but PvP is total rubbish!

FINISHED(6Months Post Accutane results) 23/M Accutane Log - 60mg - Progress Pictures
tranceaddict replied to savo0057's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsSorry to hear Savo, mine came back shortly after finishing accutane as well. Definitely discouraging. I am currently in my first month of my second course which sucks but I'm hoping a higher dose will put it into remission. I'm surprised our acne came back so quickly as we both have mild cases. Best of luck to you in the future!
Mild, persistent Acne, 27/M. Course 1 & 2 Logs
tranceaddict replied to tranceaddict's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsCourse 2, Day 22 (Week 3): My IB seems to over (knock on wood)! Seeing a little more improvement this week. Still breaking out but not nearly as bad. I have 3 cysts, 2 on my right temple which has proven to be a be problem area and one on my forehead but that is about it at the moment! My face is red and my arms/lips are dry but nothing out of the ordinary.
Mild, persistent Acne, 27/M. Course 1 & 2 Logs
tranceaddict replied to tranceaddict's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsCourse 2, Day 15 (week 2): The day after I posted the last set of pictures (day 9) my face was an absolute disaster. Another huge breakout along my temples, it was horrible. Things have definitely calmed down since then and this week has been better. I'm still getting pimples every day but it's much more manageable. Hoping My face will continue to improve over the next week. I am completely off the Benzoyl Peroxide face wash I was using and am just using cetaphil dash wash morning and night. I am spot treating with Benzaclin which I got from my Dr. side effects are minimal: occasional light headaches, slight lower back soreness and dry lips/arms. During my first course I had acne all over my face, especially my forehead, jawline, chin and upper lip but now my forehead is really the main problem area. Although, in saying that, I did get a bad one this week on my upper lip. Stay positive everyone!
First month in accutane at 80mg per day
tranceaddict replied to Emilylove's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsCan already see improvement after 10 days! I had brain fog when I upped my dosage but it went away after my body got used to the dose, lasted about a month. I also had some lower back soreness. Body aches are common. Good luck on your course, looking forward to seeing your progress!!
Accutane journey-alex
tranceaddict replied to Ah43's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsLooking good man. Awesome to see your progress, it gives the rest of us hope. Keep your spirits up
First Month on Accutane
tranceaddict replied to Bentil's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsWhat dose are you on? Your skin looks so nice and smooth! I'm very jealous your IB only lasted a week haha. One down, a few more to go Best of luck with your course!!
40 m/g 3rd month (please answer ASAP)
tranceaddict replied to Summer T's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsWere you clear before and started getting tiny bumps? Whenever this happens to me the little tiny bumps means they will turn into whiteheads. I think it's the skin pushing everything to the surface. As for dosage, that's a question for your Dr. As long as you end up taking 120-150 mg/kg you should be ok, although relapse rates tend to be a little higher with a lower doses regimen.
is accutane working? (pics)
tranceaddict replied to accutaneeuser's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsSome clear up within a month, some clear up after 3 months and some don't clear up until after they are off Accutane, believe it or not! No two cases are the exact same and there are so many different factors (age, weight, ethnicity, diet, dose, climate, etc) that affect absorption, trough levels and efficacy. Your skin looks a lot better however I wouldn't worry about getting clear. It will happen eventually, trust me, although I can understand your frustration. "Good things come to those who wait"
There is no interaction between the two so you're good to go I take them at the same time, but it's not imperative that you do the same. Shouldn't matter.
Hey Cisco, good luck with your course! The first few months can be tough but never lose sight of the goal (clear skin)! As for tips, I haven't seen too many people mention it but it would be beneficial to take a probiotic as accutane can be hard on your gut. I have found that it has helped myself.
Mild, persistent Acne, 27/M. Course 1 & 2 Logs
tranceaddict replied to tranceaddict's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsCourse 2, Day 8 (Week 1): My face is breaking out quite bad, although I'm not sure if it's the initial breakout or just the status quo for my face. Lots of whiteheads on my forehead/temple area and the odd one on my chin. I'm using BP wash every second day now and really cutting down on the amount I'm using each time. Side effects aren't bad but they probably aren't in full force yet either.
tranceaddict replied to kmmrh's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsHi Kmmrh, I have tried just about every antibiotic, topic and natural regimen to get rid of acne and nothing has worked to the extent Accutane has. Accutane has been the only thing that has 100% cleared me. I was on a 6 month course earlier this year and it worked great, unfortunately I relapsed after a few months and am on my second course now. I understand you are frightened of the side effects as they should be taken seriously. I would bring your hesitations up with your Dr and get some insight from a medical professional before stopping. These side effects are very rare. If you think how many people have been on accutane since it came out in 1982, statistically there are bound to be some outliers who experience these unfortunate side effects. Thankfully the majority of people will not experience any long term side effects. Remember, not everyone will write a review about their Accutane experience and people are much more likely to share their experience if it has been negative which is why there is a disportioncate amount of bad experiences to good experiences. I respect your decision to quit but I would consult with your healthcare professional as some people are more predisposed to get negative, long term side effects than others and they will be able to better explain why this is and if you may be at risk.
Mild, persistent Acne, 27/M. Course 1 & 2 Logs
tranceaddict replied to tranceaddict's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsThanks for the post Suite! I'm glad you were able to go on accutane once again as it worked so well the first time. It's beyond frustrating to have it come back, especially when you thought you were in the clear, pun intended. I wish I had went on a higher dose course but my Dr was reluctant because my acne wasn't severe. It's ironic that i'm just reading this post now as I just got back from the Dr after visiting him because of a breakout. I pleaded my case and thankfully he agreed to put me back onto accutane for a second course! I told him I wanted to do a higher dose for 5 months (40mg for the first month then 80mg x4 months) and he agreed. Hopefully it works well for the both of us and we can remain clear! ... And so the journey begins once again! COURSE 2 Day 1: Currently I have 2 whiteheads and about 5 red spots that are recovering on my forehead in addition to a few smaller ones around the rest of my face. I have been using BP wash since January so I will ween that out as I start to dry up. Going to remind myself to drink tons of water.

tranceaddict replied to tranceaddict's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logsWent to the Dr and he said my acne is not severe enough to go on another course. Recommended topicals. Back to the drawing board for me Very disheartening, really thought this would be the end of my nightmare. Good luck on your second course!
Mild, persistent Acne, 27/M. Course 1 & 2 Logs
tranceaddict replied to tranceaddict's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logs~1.5 month post accutane: Hello everyone! I regret to inform you that my acne has indeed come back you have no idea how sad this makes me! I am guessing that it's because the most I ever took was 50mg and the relapse rate for a lower dose course is higher. This sucks. My acne is definitely less severe than it was prior to accutane, and that's with applying BP everyday, so things could be worse. I have a bunch of small little bumps on my forehead and a few large pimples on my temples that will not come to a head. I guess I am so discouraged because I was completely 100% acne free while on accutane. I don't think my acne is severe enough to go on another course, but I may go back to my Dr in a few months and plead with him. Sorry I have to be the bear of bad news, I really thought I was "cured".

The project outlined here seeks to identify robust biomarkers of functional immunity to malaria, In endemic areas where differing transmission intensities have been noted. We anticipate that sustained, intensified control of malaria using long-lasting Insecticide Impregnated bed nets (LLINs) and Improved access to parasitological diagnosis and treatment with artemisinin combination therapy (ACT) will result In significantly lower levels of immune biomarkers, thus corresponding to a loss of parasitological and clinical Immunity. A major controlling force that determines the incidence and prevalence of malaria Infection and disease in endemic areas is the parasitological and clinical Immunity collectively refen'ed to as naturally acquired Immunity (NAI). Generally, NAI determines not only the age-speciflc Incidence and prevalence of P. falciparum (Pf) and P. vivax (Pv) infection, but also the expression of pathological processes that underlie the clinical manifestations of Infection. Improved understanding ofthe development and maintenance of NAI and the ability to cope with the severe manifestations of malaria are now particulariy Important, since effective public health interventions that reduce transmission are being deployed. With effective control measures NAI may be lost, resulting in an increased proportion of Individuals becoming susceptible should malaria be re-introduced to the population. This is especially Important in countries that border those where effective control has not been successfully maintained. Although absolute in vitro correlates of protection to malaria are unknown, consensus has emerged that there are specific biomarkers of immunity. These include elevated levels of serum antibodies directed at merozoite antigens (particulariy Invasion ligands) and/or variant surface antigen (VSA) on Infected erythrocytes, as well as robust lymphocyte proliferation and IFNy responses to blood-stage antigens. This study alms to address significant gaps in our knowledge of NAI mechanisms In malaria, with a focus to better understand what immune biomarkers signify NAI, and how measures of cellular and humoral Immunity evolve differentially according to age in populations. This study also alms to examine of the role of malaria transmission on NAI, and how reduction of malaria transmission by universal deployment of LLINs and ACT will affect NAI and Its duration.
With a global effort to control or eliminate malaria in many endemic areas of the worid, knowledge of the underiying mechanisms and biomarkers of naturally acquired Immunity will be invaluable In the design and evaluation of additional tools that prevent and treat malaria-related Illness, most especially In constructing vaccines that ultimately eliminate the disease.

California's Northern District decides websites are not "places of public accommodation" under the ADA, the opposite of a recent District of Massachusetts ruling
In the wake of a federal district court in Massachusetts rejecting arguments by Netflix that its "Watch Instantly" streaming website is not a "place of public accommodation" under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a federal court in California reached the opposite conclusion. In Cullen v. Netflix, the United States District Court for Northern District of California ruled that "places of public accommodation" under the ADA are limited to "actual physical places" and dismissed allegations that Netflix, in failing to caption streamed video, had violated state and federal disabilities and other laws. The distinctly different decisions reached by the courts in National Association of the Deaf v. Netflix (D. Mass) and Cullen v. Netflix (N.D. Cal.) underscore the unsettled nature of the law in this area. Moreover, the new Netflix decision in Cullen reinforces previous ADA cases–with which NAD v. Netflix broke–that largely rejected the proposition that websites could be "places of public accommodation" where measures like closed captioning (or video description) can be required.
Cullen involved a putative class action against Netflix under California's Unruh Civil Rights Act and Disabled Persons Act, for failure to provide full and equal access to its online video-streaming services based on alleged violations of the ADA by Netflix for failing to closed-caption the videos. Though the Cullen court noted the recent Massachusetts decision in NAD v. Netflix, it concluded it was bound by Ninth Circuit precedent that websites are not places of public accommodation, and accordingly granted Netflix's motion to dismiss.
The court also held Cullen could not state an Unruh Act claim against Netflix independent of the ADA claim, because California law requires intentional discrimination. While Netflix's failure to closed-caption streamed videos may have a disparate impact on hearing-impaired individuals, the court held, plaintiffs failed to demonstrate willful, affirmative misconduct as is necessary to sustain a cause of action. Finally on the disabilities-related claims, the court also held that a claim under California's Disabled Persons Act independent of the APA claim did not lie because plaintiff failed to cite any California standards in this area that exceed the ADA, as the state law requires for such claims.
NAD v. Netflix was significant because previous ADA cases had largely rejected the proposition that websites could be "places of public accommodation" where measures like closed captioning (or video description) could be required. Also significant was that, because there were questions raised in NAD regarding whether the Communications Video Accessibility Act and implementing regulations adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) preempted ADA online closed-captioning claims, the Department of Justice, which is charged with implementing the ADA, weighed in, in favor of NAD. Cullen did not include any input from DOJ, and is more consistent with other decisions in this area regarding online accessibility, a topic also currently being considered in a Department of Justice rulemaking.
Coming as hard on the heels of NAD v. Netflix as it did, Cullen suggests that the Massachusetts case may simply be an outlier and not an indication of evolving legal views tied to advanced technology. Nevertheless, between the diverging stances the federal courts have taken, DOJ's continued exploration of online captioning and similar website accommodations, and the extent to which, if it stands, the NAD decision could require changes at Netflix's site(s) that affect more than just Massachusetts viewers, this is an area that warrants careful monitoring.
