I had a Tummy Tuck Nov 2015. When standing I had a lower stomach pudge, so in August 2016 i had a revision. (photos)

My stomach skin looked normal after the initial tummy tuck. But after the second tummy tuck my skin looks abnormal. On the left lower side I have darken skin (opposite on photo). I use silicon scar sheets on the tummy tuck scar which I know will lighten with time. On my overall stomach skin I apply (alternate between) coconut oil or Palmers Skin Therapy oil & use my therapeutic Wahl brand massage wand daily. I also had a breast lift with initial tummy tuck (no questions ok that procedure).

Revision tummy tuck

appears to be healing well... but you do have some discoloration of your skin and you should ask your surgeon about it.  It could be hemosiderin deposits from bruising and in most cases, will go away.  If it doesn't, lasers can help but then it could leave the area lighter in color so be cautious with whatever you decide to do for yourself.

Revision tummy tuck didn't work out very well

I am sorry you are concerned about your tummy tuck revision result. It is early in your healing and it will be another 4 months at least before you see your final result. Using 100% shea or coconut butter on the dark skin is likely to slowly lighten it.

Images and memes are automatically removed from r/Diablo to ensure a high-quality experience for everyone.

Please link your image again in a text-only self-post with more information about it, so people can enjoy as well as discuss the image. An example of a self image post would include a riveting title, a link to the image inside, and a description varying from when it was taken, what it is, why you like it, and similar things.

If your image is a meme, ragecomic or something similar, you should try to post it to r/Diablofunny, where content like this is accepted and wanted. Not specifically funny, but in general less serious content is also definitely a go for r/Diablofunny!

Thank you for your understanding, and thanks for being a member of this subreddit!

Nerd gripe: Is an A+ certification really boast worthy? Most folks born after 1980 don't even need one. I scoff at any job posting that requires it.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (1 child)

I got my fuckin' A+ cert when I was in 9th grade. What a joke.

[–]SethQ24/M/CA/diredork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I studied for mine in 9th grade, but when I went to take the test I googled where to find it and all I got was "save your money and just write 'good with computers' on your resume. It'll have the same effect".

Even with my student discount it was like $100. I'm glad I saved the money.

[–]disciple_of_iron20/M/Pittsbrgh/-iron- 2 points3 points  (9 children)

I see this attitude a lot in this subreddit and I think it's stupid. Personally I am mostly, almost exclusively, sexually attracted to white women. I don't think this makes me racist anymore than the fact that I'm not attracted to men makes me sexist. Now I didn't make a huge point of this in my profile and I agree, if the first line in someone's profile was WHITES ONLY that would be off-putting. However I did answer yes to the "would you prefer to date someone of your own race?" question with a yes and I don't think any reasonable person should count this against me.

[–]BonesJustice29/M/Manhattan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]the_nekkid_ape23/M/Racist White Peopleville, MI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]qtyapa 3 points4 points  (4 children)

Actually, he is right onto the point. I see so many girls equally forth-coming in their profile about who they are and who they dislike, though never obama but that's his personal opinion. He is very confident in what he wants, what he does(nothing) and what he is going to do if this doesn't work out. No need to make fun of him here.

[–]thewongtrainAsianLegend-25/M/SF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha didn't think about that.

He's utterly confident in his negativity and very open as a person.

[–]bestbiff -1 points0 points  (1 child)

He's confident he's going to commit suicide if he doesn't get a girlfriend off the internet based on some arbitrary age? Yeah it's to the point and yeah it's not worth making fun of, but it's not a profile worth celebrating in any way. Should someone like this even be in a relationship with that outlook?

[–]qtyapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I missed the "internet" part but who are we to say if he should be in a relationship or not? I did find his profile little amusing, as it is different from the regular ones but not to the extent of making fun of him.

[–]Coolthulu 2 points3 points  (14 children)

... So we're mocking someone who openly admits to having Aspergers here?

When did it become okay to pick on people for their disorder? Yeah, this profile is awkward as fuck, but COME ON, he has a mental disorder that makes it impossible for him to understand normal social convention.

While we're going down this road, we should go right ahead and mock the blind for their shitty basketball skills.

[–]SethQ24/M/CA/diredork 6 points7 points  (9 children)

Part of me wants to agree with you, but I know a dozen people who have self diagnosed Aspergers. Basically, they say "I'm socially awkward, there must be a clinical explanation. It can't be because I'm a dick".

Basically, I'm skeptical of anyone who freely admits a host of mental disorders. The few people I've known with diagnosed and treated problems don't talk about it, and are vague when they do.

That's just my experience, of course.

[–]Coolthulu 4 points5 points  (5 children)

Looking at his profile, is it really hard to believe that he has a host of mental disorders? It's a minefield of clusterfuck. Even the biggest OKC niceguy men'srightsactivists fedora rockin' neckbeards aren't this socially inept.

And is there any reason why we shouldn't give him the benefit of the doubt anyway? Do you throw soccer balls at blind people just to test if they're really blind? Kick canes away from people with limps to see if they really can't walk on their own? Why hold people with mental disorders to a higher standard?

[–]SethQ24/M/CA/diredork 4 points5 points  (4 children)

I've never encountered someone claiming physical illness or disability as excuse for their actions. I have met several who do so with mental illness.

Also, welcome to the internet. If you pay attention to details you have Aspergers. If you arrange things a certain way you have OCD. If you stop watching a YouTube video halfway through to watch a different one you have ADD. These sincere illnesses get self diagnosed (wrongly) all the time. I'm just saying on the internet, with nothing but three paragraphs to read, I wouldn't be convinced of these illnesses.

[–]Coolthulu -3 points-2 points  (3 children)

In fairness, a mental disorder directly affects your brain, which controls your actions. A physical disorder does not. Sooooooo isn't that exactly what we should expect to happen?

I'm aware that many people self-diagnose or diagnose incorrectly. I fail to see why that makes it okay to mock someone who is clearly suffering from some sort of mental disorder.

[–]SethQ24/M/CA/diredork 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I hesitate to say he is clearly suffering from these disorders.

[–]Coolthulu -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

I said he's clearly suffering from A disorder. I don't know if it's Asperger's, autism, depression, personality disorder, sever social anxiety, or what, but his profile openly talks of his desire for suicide and is FAAAAAAR outside social norms on every front.

I don't know what he's suffering from, but he's such an outlier, I guarantee you he's suffering from something.

[–]springek29/f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel bad for the guy. He's clearly in a rough spot and I see no reason to doubt his diagnoses. The Obama shit is eye roll worthy but whatever, he's not being offensive.

[–]bestyoloqueuer 0 points1 point  (2 children)

How can one be socially awkward because of being a dick? I don't get it.

[–]SethQ24/M/CA/diredork 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Being rude can put you in positions where you misread social cues and make you seem unfriendly or awkward.

"Hi, what's your name?"

"What do you care?"

"Oh, I was just trying to introduce myself."

"Sure, whatever"

[–]bestyoloqueuer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by 'being rude' Isn't he rude because he misreads social cues in that case? Not that 'being rude' makes you misread social cues.

Say he feels startled, nervous and uncomfortable when someone starts talking to him, so he just puts up a defensive position.

Or maybe just so low self esteem that he doesn't believe anyone would want to introduce theirselves to him and therefore he can't trust anyone.

[–]andr0medam31[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

There are posting guides for those of us who lack the social know-how. Generally, don't post about politics, and don't post every medical disorder you have unless it's truly relevant.

[–]Coolthulu 1 point2 points  (2 children)

And God, do wheel chairs take up soo much room on the subway? And don't you hate it when blind people poke you with their stick? And holy shit, that amputee crutching around in front of me is holding up all the foot traffic. And man, that guy with Turrets just won't shut up. And boy does that stroke victim talk like an idiot!

Am I right? Am I right?

It's not that he lacks social know how. He has a mental disability. This is a DIRECT SYMPTOM of that disability. He's not hurting anyone, and he's clearly having a hard time himself. I'm really uncomfortable with people mocking someone in obvious distress due to a mental disorder.

[–]NotAlwaysAppropriate35/M/NY -1 points0 points  (0 children)

    50 won't come soon enough for this guy.

    [–]Coolthulu -1 points0 points  (4 children)

    So you're telling a guy with Asperger's Syndrome to kill himself over a shitty OkCupid profile? I just want to be clear here.

    [–]disciple_of_iron20/M/Pittsbrgh/-iron- 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    Asperger's isn't an excuse to be bitter. I think celebrating his suicide is going too far but he doesn't really sound like a pleasant person.

    [–]Coolthulu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Many people with disabilities are bitter about it. I've never had to live every day of my life in a society that wasn't designed for people like me, that I have to spend every ounce of my effort just to try and fit into on a basic level, never mind succeed. I can see how that might make someone bitter, and I'm not going to judge them for being bitter about it.

    I'd like to think that I wouldn't be bitter in his shoes, but I'm not in his shoes and I can't say that. I do think we could at least have a little empathy and not mock his misfortune or celebrate his suicide.

    [–]iaintnobodysbaby29/f/nyc 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    He also didn't say he's going to commit suicide, he said he would be okay with dying at 50. Basically he is saying that if he doesn't find a girlfriend on the internet he has nothing to live for and is okay with dying early. He didn't say he will do anything to make that happen.

    [–]bestbiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    If you say that shit to your therapist, bells should start going off because it sounds like suicidal idealization.

I'm on a Star Wars kick at the minute so I want to say something Star Wars related like a random Jedi.

As for an established character you could pull off, since you call yourself lanky, Luigi of the Mario Brothers games might be an idea, but that's pretty much all I can think of!

[–]neko_vs_world 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's not an anime, but you could do a very good Marth from Fire Emblem.

[–]RiftOfBelief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing that came to mind was Kirito from Sword Art Online.

[–]abyssalmissilephotographer, cosplayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being lanky and tall with slimmer features means you look like plenty of characters in anime. Really, no restrictions there.

Pick your favorite so you love the final result and just make it happen!

Good idea! I'm #11 ;-)

We could turn that into an annual event.

There was a previous attempt at a "Fedora Award," but it was based on
completely subjective measures whereas this reward would be (1) less
hoopla involved, and (2) based on the completely objective measure of
package reviews, which are both sorely needed in the project and
obviously well-connected to our mission of advancing free software --
in this case, by getting more of it included in the distribution.

Given the overall sentiment the last time; How are you going to award whomever is doing whatever in whichever area doesn't have this kind of statistics? I'm afraid the ones that had something to complain about with the Fedora Award will find something to complain about this time.

Why not combine whatever statistics we can pull from wherever, have these people put their ranking on their personal Wiki page -if they even want to-, and elect who's getting the Fedora Award? We could arrange for the winners in YearN to not be eligible for YearN+1, too.

Just a thought ;-)

What is a good recipe for loquat jam?

Quick Answer

A good recipe for loquat jam uses 12 cups of seeded, halved loquats, 6 cups of sugar and 6 cups of water. Put everything into a large pot, then boil for five minutes. Reduce to medium-low heat, and simmer for between 2 and 2 1/2 hours. The loquats turn from a bright yellow color to dark amber when done. Most of the liquid evaporates. Stir the jam occasionally, and use an immersion blender to smooth out any lumps.

Continue Reading

Full Answer

When the jam is cooked, ladle it into half-pint canning jars. Wipe the rims clean, put the rings and lids in place, and allow the jars to sit and self-seal. Label and date the jars, and store them on the shelf. Once open, loquat jam needs to be refrigerated. This recipe yields 9 half-pint jars.

Loquats are tangy, slightly sweet fruits with large seeds. The most time-consuming chore is removing the seeds, which are not edible. Blanching the fruit makes this chore easier, and it helps release the juices. It also minimizes the loquat's distinctive scent. The skins are thin and break down during the cooking process, so there is no need to peel them.

If harvesting your own loquats, pick when they are yellow but have no greenish tinge. Orange-colored loquats tend to be overripe and may not be as flavorful. They grow in clusters, and sometimes, it's just easier to harvest the entire cluster rather than the individual fruits.

How do you use a female catheter?

Quick Answer

According to MedlinePlus, a female catheter is used to drain urine from the bladder when health problems cause difficulties with normal urination. Using a catheter involves cleaning the labia area, inserting the catheter, removing the catheter and then cleaning the area again. The catheter can be inserted while sitting on the toilet to allow the urine to drain into the toilet if desired.

Continue Reading

Full Answer

MedlinePlus states that before using a catheter the patient needs to wash her hands and get all of the supplies ready. These include a clean or sterile catheter prescribed by her physician, a water-based personal lubricant and moist cleaning wipes. Next, the patient pulls the labia apart and locates the urinary opening. Then, the labia are washed with the moist wipes three times from front to back using a clean wipe each time, once in the middle and once on each side.

MedlinePlus recommends that after cleaning the patient lubricates the end of the catheter with the water-based gel. Some catheters come pre-lubricated making this step unnecessary. Then, the patient gently pushes the lubricated end of the catheter into the urinary opening until urine flows. When the bladder is empty, the patient pinches the end of the catheter to avoid spills and gently removes it from the body. The final step is cleaning the labia one final time with a moist wipe.

What material is the best insulator?

Quick Answer

The best material that serves as an insulator is glass because of its high resistivity, states Georgia State University or GSU. The photons present in glass do not have enough energy to close the gap between the valence electrons and the conduction band.

Continue Reading

Full Answer

Other materials that serve as insulators include mica and quartz. Solid materials act as good insulators by restricting electric current flow, but are bad conductors, explains Georgia State University.

Two other types of insulating materials are conductors and semiconductors. Conductors allow electrons to move freely throughout the material. Most metals are both good electrical and heat conductors, notes Georgia State University. Additionally, the energy bands within semiconductors allow some electron movement and electric flow.

Where do typhoons occur?

Quick Answer

A typhoon is the name given to a tropical cyclone that forms in the northwestern part of the Pacific Ocean. Hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones are all names for the same type of storm, and different names are used based on where the storm originates.

Continue Reading

Full Answer

Tropical cyclones that form in the eastern Pacific or the Atlantic Ocean are termed hurricanes, while those that occur in the Indian or south Pacific oceans are simply called cyclones. Despite the difference in names, these terms all refer to a specific type of organized, rotating weather system of clouds and thunderstorms. These cyclones occur around the world in a band that stretches approximately 300 miles north and south of the equator, as the specific conditions required for their formation can only occur in subtropical or tropical waters. As of 2014, only one tropical cyclone has ever been recorded in the southern Atlantic, Hurricane Catarina, which struck the coast of Brazil in 2004.

All of these storms are first classified as a tropical storm until they grow large enough to produce an average sustained wind speed over 74 mph, after which they are given a specific name based on their location. The names are selected in alphabetical order from the list for each region, with a new list of names being used each year.

Take one part MAXON's CINEMA 4D, add two parts challenging projects — create quickly under high pressure — and you've got Cake Studios. Headed by founders Jim Steinhaus, Cake's producer, and Mannix, creative director, the up-and-coming Los Angeles-based design studio is fast becoming known for doing inventive design work using C4D.

Jim Steinhaus and Mannix of Cake Studios used C4D to create graphics packages for two NFL Network broadcasts.

Fairly new to the industry, Cake hadn't yet picked their software of choice when they were hired by the NFL Network for a couple of high-profile jobs. The first: create interstitials, bumpers, wipes, and more for a television broadcast of the annual college football all-star game, the Senior Bowl. The second: do the same for a special segment about NFL quarterbacks called QB Quandary. (QB Quandary animation:

The only caveat was that the NFL Network required them to use CINEMA 4D. "The NFL Network project offered us the perfect opportunity to expand our use of CINEMA and dive headfirst into the software," says Steinhaus. "It's exciting because we're constantly evolving as a company in terms of what we can offer and we're seeing the creative advantages CINEMA offers over other platforms." (Senior Bowl opener:

One key advantage is CINEMA 4D's intuitive interface that "allows artists to quickly get from concept to motion and on to color and lighting faster than other software," says Steinhaus. It also makes it easier for artists to learn. "That's one of the biggest reasons many of our clients are using CINEMA in-house, so it's to our advantage to offer it in our suite of services."

Mannix, Cake's creative director, appreciated how easy it was to import vector artwork into CINEMA 4D.

Sports in motion

Sports advertising is well known for having swooping camera work, bright colors, lots of reflections, busy imagery and constant motion. When brought together, these elements help capture the dynamic of professional sports. That's why C4D fits well with that "testosterone aesthetic," says Mannix, who is happy with how easy it is to import vector artwork into CINEMA 4D. "With C4D we can easily import, build & treat vector artwork," he explains. "This is essential in our business, as the ability to present clients with high-quality imagery quickly is key to success."

Cake created interstitials, bumpers, wipes and more for QB Quandary, which featured NFL quarterbacks.

In addition to requiring Cake to use C4D, the NFL Network asked them to incorporate already existing creative elements into the new projects to maintain continuity. Using storyboards and assets provided by the Network, Cake began working on the motion of each piece; making sure they got the "vibe" of what each could possibly be.

Good design and fast-action motion graphics gave the Senior Bowl the quintessential sports feel the NFL was looking for.

Among the many pieces Cake Studios produced for the NFL Network, the12-second intro to the Senior Bowl and the 8-second intro to QB Quandary are standouts that quickly establish the excitement of football.

To allow the client to swap desired artwork for things like animated banners, Cake rendered a UVW pass from C4D. Cake also rendered out a motion vector pass in CINEMA 4D to allow them to better control the motion blur in the compositing stage. To achieve the realistic motion of waving banners, Cake used C4D's cloth module.

Cake used MoGraph to populate the environments for QB Quandary with shapes that could be animated.

The QB Quandary video offers the same vibrant, visual roller-coaster ride with a swooping camera, high-sheen reflections and dazzling images as an introduction to the rarified, complicated world of the professional quarterback. MoGraph was used extensively to populate the environment with shapes and animate them. "It was nothing too extreme," says Steinhaus. "The shapes were basic and their motion was simple, but MoGraph helped us set things up quickly and animate easily."

Dramatic camera angles and a wide-angle lens add to the extreme action feel of the broadcast.

Having worked with C4D on both of these projects, Steinhaus believes the software will not only enable Cake to work for a wider range of clients, it will help them work more quickly and efficiently. (See Cake's reel: "In the old days, nobody cared what software you used, they just wanted to get your final animations and that's all you delivered," he explains. "Now you're sharing source files with clients and delivering tool kits and ready-to-use files, so because of the ease of use, CINEMA is where everyone's going."

If Wheatley Had Won: Portal 2 VGA Vid

Well done, Wheatley, you mad idiot.

Earlier this month, Valve made a video of Wheatley talking about his nomination in the ‘Best Character’ category of the VGAs. The Joker actually took the award, which seemed disappointing at first, since he’s a decades old character who even in this incarnation is appearing in a sequel, while Wheatley is quite the original. Then I noticed that the other two entrants were Nathan Drake and Marcus Fenix, appearing in the third games of their respective trilogies. The awards mean diddly squat, but I was a little disappointed about Wheatley missing out because it meant we all missed out an an acceptance speech. No more! Here’s what he would have said.

Rather delightful, I must say. We should probably senselessly pick it apart for clues, eh? The most obvious thing is “maybe next year” at the end, but I refuse to believe Wheatley will be featuring in another game next year, unless he starts making odd little cameos. Chances are it’s just supposed to be funny. And the serious scrutiny that the internet will inevitably apply to it probably makes it all the funnier to the teases wot made it.

But if you do manage to decode the content in such a way that it clearly signifies the coming of Left 4 Dead 3, do let me know.

From this site

  1. Deadly Habit says:

    Episode 3!

    • staberas says:

      NO NO NO

    • Timberfox says:

      Half-Life 2: Episode Two: Episode one?

    • Navagon says:

      @ Deadly Habit

      … Will never happen!

      But maybe HL3 though, who knows?

    • Xaromir says:

      Gabe once said that we will have HL3 before we get HL2EP3, i don’t know how this is supposed to make sense, but hey, if he stuck with that…

  2. DocSeuss says:

    This is just me, but… Wheatley’s originality should be irrelevant to whether he’s any good as a character.

    Then again, Nathan Drake was on the list, so it’s irrelevant to begin with, unless “generic character with Whedonesque snark” is part of what makes a good character.

    • Just Endless says:

      I legitimately find that unfair to Joss Whedon.

      After playing through two uncharted games, I cannot think of a video game character I like less than Drake.

  3. mondomau says:

    Really? It’s the VGAs, the worst joke in the industry. I’m surprised Valve bothered making that video; the genuinely deserving candidates rarely get a nomination, let alone win.

    • Phantoon says:

      You’re surprised Valve did a whole bunch of work for something throw away?

  4. Odiee says:

    Meh. Didn’t play new Batman games but for Joker to win over Wheatley is idiotic.
    Let’s compare character description for the 2:
    Joker: psyco.
    Wheatley: Idiotic narcissistic AI designed by the greatest minds of out age with the express purpose of building the dumbest moron who ever lived.”

    Oh and.
    Nathan Drake: witty adventurer.
    Marcus Fenix: gritty soldier.

    Joker is a decades old character who’s personality was forged by many authors and writers. But Whitley is original and most of all fresh addition to the otherwise bleak game-characters culture.

    • Icarus says:

      I respectfully disagree with that- Mark Hamill’s turn as the Joker in Arkham City was nothing short of glorious. A perfect mix of glee, menace and *gets hit on the head with the spoiler bat*

    • Apples says:

      Mark Hamill might have done good voice acting, but that doesn’t make the Joker a good character. It also seems ludicrous to give the VGA award to a character that is not, really, a video game character at all.

    • Xercies says:

      Wheatly isn’t that original to be honest, he’s Stephen Merchent, doing his Stephen Merchant schitct. He has no real character of his own in the game to be honest I found.

    • Agnol117 says:

      See, the problem with your descriptions is that you basically sum Wheatley up in the first three words. Everything after that is just fluff. Wheatley can be reduced rather minimally, same as the other characters you’re so intent on attacking.

  5. RakeShark says:

    We can of course imagine Batman’s acceptance speech for such an award.

    “I’m Batman.”

  6. Wulf says:

    Calling Nathan Drake a ‘character’ is a criminal offense, and a spit in the face to all decent writers everywhere. So that’s those VGA things confirmed as a joke, then. I mean, to have the Joker win is bad enough, but to even consider Nathan Drake… so much cringing.

    I mean, sure, the game may be fine if you can get past how unintelligent the whole affair feels, and how the games seem to portray every ethnicity bar caucasian in a negative light. If you can get past that then the game might be fine, sure. But to call Nathan Drake a character? HERESY.

    Nathan Drake is a faceless enabler of mindless violence and action. That’s it.

    Any series of awards that features him as a character loses any credibility from the outset. Why did you even bother, Valve?

    Also, the Joker is far, far from Batman’s most interesting villain. And thanks to the umpteen years of contradictory stuff about his past story and personality, he’s even got a massive identity crisis. I suppose this was part of the necessity for a reboot.

    Joker’s boring. Vastly overrted and not at all interesting. He’s a ‘genius’ for ‘just because’ reasons, and he has a twisted sense of humour. Whoop de doo.

    Hell, I like the Riddler more than I ever did the Joker.

    There. I’ve said that too. I feel better.

  7. c-Row says:

    But if you do manage to decode the content in such a way that it clearly signifies the coming of Left 4 Dead 3, do let me know.

    Well, it doesn’t say otherwise, so it must be true!

  8. Apples says:

    I went on wikipedia to see what other games/people had won things. I was baffled to see that two categories were named “Best Performance by a Human Male/Female” – was that distinction really necessary? To make sure the award isn’t given to a dog or a cabbage or something? Discrimination! Speciesism!

    Also the Joker is not really a good character. He does evil things for no real reason because ‘he’s insane’. Boring. If he’s a good character you might as well say SR2’s Boss is a good character.

  9. DickSocrates says:

    Every time Portal 2 doesn’t win something, I get happier.

    • Senethro says:

      Is there an actual reason or is this just a hipster-esque backlash against popular things? Like, did you think it was too easy? Developed for a different audience? That the middle third could have been cut?

      Or do you just want the comments thread to know how underground you are?

    • brulleks says:

      I expect it’s just the anti-depressants kicking in.

    • Durkonkell says:

      Every time you don’t win something, I get Portal 2.

      (Makes as much sense as what you said)

    • youthful cynic says:

      You sound more like dickPlato, but definitely a dick.

    • skinlo says:

      Wow, you are soo cool.

  10. Ninja Foodstuff says:

    Who the hell is Nathan Drake?

    Also Wheatley did win the category at the Gamespot awards, so…

    • WMain00 says:

      Character in the video game Uncharted for PS3.

      Personally I kind of like him. He has a sense of humour that reminds me of Nathan Fillion.

    • ShadyGuy says:

      Nathan Drake is the main character in the PS3 exclusive games Uncharted. He’s sort of an Indiana Jones idiot savant. Not really interesting as a character since all he does is shoot people and spout one liners.

    • Ninja Foodstuff says:

      Ah ok, so I would have to buy some antiquated piece of hardware to find out if I agree then.

    • RogB says:

      @WMain00 yeah he’s very much Nathan Fillion in my head. I dont get the hate tbh.

      (other than platform snobbery)

    • Just Endless says:

      Or, y’know, boot up the youtube.

  11. lowprices says:

    Well, so far the comments have established that Portal 2 is shit, Batman and the Joker are shit, Nathan Drake and anyone who likes him is shit, Marcus Fenix is shit and the VGAs are shit.

    Good to see the holiday season hasn’t dampened the RPS readers’ spirits and distracted them from their usual task of bitterly complaining about anything that isn’t The Witcher or Guild Wars.

    • Malawi Frontier Guard says:

    • skalpadda says:

      I think we’re supposed to hate The Witcher and CD Project now as well. Keep up, man!

    • lowprices says:

      Really? Oh man, I though CDP were the good guys because of DRM, and their opposition to it. Are we pro-DRM now? I’m so confused.

      What about Dragon Age 2? Am I still supposed to hate that? And everything Bioware does?

    • LionsPhil says:

      CDP hurt the nice pirates so we have to hate them now for wanting to make money, the big mean capitalists. :c

    • Aquarion says:

      You went though an entire comment without even *mentioning* skyrim? Shame on you.

    • skinlo says:

      I’ll start, I don’t like the Witcher 1 at all, got it last Christmas in a sale, haven’t got past the first chapter, its very clunky to play!

    • lowprices says:

      Ooh, while we’re saying That Which Should Not Be Said, I think Ubisofts ‘always on’ DRM is entirely reasonable.

  12. Chris D says:

    Allow me to assist in decoding this message. I don’t think any of us are buying that this is a simple bit of fluff with no further significance than that. While initially appearing benign Wheatley is revealed to be the adversary in Portal 2, the role of Satan if you will. Therefore this is intended to be understood backwards. so:

    “Don’t even get to hold the award. Maybe next year” – Without pausing for frivolous celebration Valve are at work on another project. Next year indicates a projected 2012 release.

    “After all this time we’re going home.” – A return to an old IP, that fans have been waiting a long time for. A tacit admission they have strayed with other things and are now returning to our roots.

    “No one to thank but me” This rules out Left 4 Dead as that is a cooperative game, without the purity of self reliance.

    “Who to thank?” By this point we all know who Valve should thank for their success. The who refers to a deeper question. We may know his identity, but can we really know a man who never speaks?

    I think we can all agree the significance is obvious.

  13. MistyMike says:

    Jordins the Sword-Maiden should have won.
    “I am sworn to carry the burden of this award”.

  14. Srethron says:

    (SPOILER for the embedded video, I suppose.)
    That little spaaaace core gets me every time. Love it.

    (End Spoiler.)

    Also, Episode Never: Not Soon Enough: Maybe Eventually: I Hope: ARGH @ ARGs & Not Args That Look Like They Could Be ARGs If People Get All Squinty-Eyed. :(

  15. Kamen Rider says:

    ITT upset Portal fans

  16. grundus says:

    Bah to the lot of you, Uncharted was good, Uncharted 2 was good and I don’t know about Uncharted 3 yet because I haven’t got it. Can’t be arsed to explain because it’ll take too long and be uninteresting, but Uncharted would’ve been a whole lot worse without Nathan Drake’s personality. I suppose you either enjoy the quips and slightly nonchalant approach to the multitude of perils you face, or you hate his stupid hair, his stupid face and his stupid jokes. I’m not overly surprised that commenters on a PC gaming site tend to dislike him, after all you are more used to less casual games than Uncharted (which is pretty much brainless shoot and jump at stuff linearity, but I find that ok every now and then), and I don’t think he should’ve won this award, but I’m struggling to think of any other characters in games that came out this year that could be better contenders for the title.

    Adam ‘yeah, rip’ Jensen? Ezio from AC: Revelations? Kenneth Block from Dirt 3? That was this year, right? The guy from Rage? I can’t be arsed to think of more, but there weren’t really any good characters this year, at least none that made me feel any more engaged in the game I was playing.

    • Irony says:

      I can’t be arsed to think of more, but there weren’t really any good characters this year, at least none that made me feel any more engaged in the game I was playing.

      Wouldn’t Rucks from Bastion be the very definition of this?

  17. RandomGameR says:

    “Wheatley is quite the original”

    No, not so much. He was a new character, yes, but he was a done many-times-before schtick character.

Season of the Witch

Credit: © 2010 by Atlas Entertainment

Season of the Witch kicks off the new movie year with a resounding thud as Nicolas Cage, in a wig of blond ringlets seemingly snatched from Gwyneth Paltrow's Country Strong collection, portrays a knight of the Crusades on God's duty. It's the 14th century, baby, and Behman (that's Cage) and his comrade in arms, Felson (Hellboy's Ron Perlman), must deliver a witch (Claire Foy) to a monastery so a hotshot monk can read mumbo-jumbo at her and end the scourge of plague that has the population popping oozing postules.

Peter Travers reviews Season of the Wtich in his weekly video series, "At the Movies With Peter Travers."

The real plague is the movie, a sci-fi hodgepodge of bad history and worse special effects. Director Dominic Sena allows the actors to mug outrageously in accents that range from fake British to bogus Jersey Shore. I may be making Season of the Witch sound like more fun than it is. Trust me, it's as bloodless as a starved vampire. Instead of a review, it deserves a stake in the heart. Die, monster, die.

Live tactical missile firing touted by Russia’s Western Command

Russia’s most advanced missile complexes for precision firing exercises have been announced by the country’s Western Command. Training includes locking on top-priority targets, with air-based and ballistic ground-based missile complexes.

The Russian Air Force’s strategic long-range aviation is engaging surface targets with cruise missiles, while training is being undertaken on deployment at Iskander-M nuclear-capable mobile theater ballistic missile complexes. The drills focus on the elimination of hard-to-destroy targets with a high-impact precision weaponry.

The war games started on May 27 and will last till June 5.

“In the course of the maneuvers, we carry out integrated damage attacks on the critically important installations of a hypothetical aggressor’s infrastructure, using high-precision ground-and-air-based weapons,” reported the press-service of Russia’s Defense Ministry.

TU 160 heavy bomber (RIA Novosti / Anton Denisov)

Iskander-M (NATO reporting name SS-26 Stone), a quasi-ballistic missile complex with an officially declared range of 400 kilometers, is currently limited by the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF) agreement signed between the United States and the Soviet Union back in 1987. The INF treaty prohibited development and deployment of all medium-range ballistic and cruise missiles, and eliminated already existing ones with a range of between 500 and 5,500 kilometers.

In case the INF is terminated, the range of an Iskander complex could easily be extended to a greater, yet unspecified range.

Iskander-M has a wide range of warheads, from conventional and powerful thermobaric, cluster and bunker buster warheads, to tactical nuclear warhead.

Russian authorities have repeatedly warned NATO leadership that in case of further deployment of US anti-ballistic missile complexes in Europe, Moscow reserves the right to deploy Iskander-M missile complexes in the Kaliningrad region, Russia’s enclave in Europe. In this case, all of Poland, where the US plans to station its ABM bases, will be covered for a potential launch-through-attack strike.

The threat of having modern missile complexes on its borders, which practically cannot be intercepted, sparked hot opposition from the Baltic States and Poland, which called on Washington to increase US military presence in the region.

In December 2013, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin stated that so far the decision about deployment of Iskander-M missiles to Kaliningrad had not yet been taken, whereas Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov maintained the matter of deployment is fully in the hands of the Russian military, saying that “when there’s a need – the military will make the decision.”

The press-service of the Russian Defense Ministry stressed that deployment of Iskander complexes is not limited with any international agreements.

Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu finalized the discussion, saying that “on the territory of the Russian Federation we deploy whatever we want, wherever we want.”

The current maneuvers, as the previous ones, are being conducted against the background of the new Ukrainian authorities’ military operation against the the primarily Russian-populated rebellious eastern regions of Ukraine, which are demanding federalization of the country.

Yoganna be impressed by this seagull

© Angus Bohanon
Seagulls may have a bad reputation when it comes to anti-social behavior but one feathered friend shows he's happy to kick back on the beach and do some yoga

A gentle, health conscious seagull can be seen indulging in a spot of yoga after appearing to take some pointers from a woman going through her paces just a couple of meters away.

This relaxed gull is a far cry from the normally manic creatures that have been known to attack pets, steal your lunch, and empty their bowels from above.

While some politicians have demanded a cull for the ‘vicious pests’ others like British Prime Minister David Cameron once called for a ‘big conversation’ about seagulls after they allegedly killed a pet tortoise and a small dog in Cornwall, England.

But probably the most famous seagull of them all is a Spanish one that stole a GoPro and filmed itself flying briefly along the coast just last summer.

It looks like this yoga-loving bird can give the GoPro gull a real run for its money.

Violence has flared again in Northern Kosovo after NATO troops brutally dispersed a crowd of Serbian protesters at a makeshift roadblock, firing live ammunition at peaceful demonstrators, and have now established an armed presence in the area.

Over 100 KFOR troops arrived at the scene on Friday and forced the Serbs to leave the then-intact barricade, threatening the use of lethal force. KFOR said they would shoot anyone who failed to comply. They also ordered journalists to leave the immediate area.  NATO’s force in Kosovo has said it will shoot to kill anyone who crosses a barricaded area near the disputed checkpoint on Serbia's border with Kosovo, reports RT’s Aleksey Yaroshevsky.

Allied pro-Kosovo forces then brought in bulldozers and demolished the barricade built by ethnic Serbs on the Kosovo side of the border with Serbia.

But Serbs at the remaining barricades say they will not leave their positions.

“We have lost a battle, but not the whole war,” they told RT.

The Kosovar Serbs added that their move to erect barricades in Kosovo is driven by fear that Belgrade might abandon them in pursuit of EU membership.

Ethnic Serbs are more determined than ever to show that they do not wish to be part of the Kosovo republic.

They are telling us to leave but we have nowhere to go," explained Petra, a local resident. "This is because Kosovo is our land, our home and our life. It seems that we are on our own now and we will stand our ground.”

After peacefully retreating from the barricades, the Serbs established another makeshift checkpoint by putting two large trucks on a bridge, thus blocking access to northern Kosovo for the KFOR troops.

The situation remains tense but not violent with Serbs pulling back and grouping at a nearby bridge block post. The barricade secured by NATO troops is just one of about half a dozen constructed by Serbs, so the stand-off is continuing and an escalation of tension remains a possibility. RT’s correspondent reports that he saw a group of Serbs tearing down a road sign posted by KFOR, indicating that their fighting spirit is far from lost.

Still, more than 10 wounded people remain in hospital in the town of Mitrovice after Tuesday’s clashes with KFOR forces. Some of them have bullet wounds.

RT spoke to them to get first-hand information about the clashes.

“We were standing by the barricade when the soldiers started shouting and shooting at us,” recalls injured Aleksander Radunovic. “I did not know what they were shooting with so I got scared and started running away. Then I thought I had been hit on the shoulder, but it turned out I had received a perforating wound of my lung.

Significantly, KFOR and NATO are trying to convince the public that they only used rubber bullets and tear gas grenades against the Serbs to pacify them. But doctors in the local hospital told RT that the patients have unmistakable gunshot wounds.

“We received seven men in a serious condition: gunshot wounds, fractures and bruises – they were not rubber bullets, not a single one of them had rubber bullet wounds,” revealed the head surgeon of Mitrovica hospital, Radomir Ivankovic. “All those wounds were caused by regular bullets which we extracted from the bodies [of injured].”

The conflict zone in Kosovska Mitrovica is split between the Albanians and the Serbs, and as RT’s crew witnessed last night, the latter are currently reinforcing their barricades with fresh piles of sandbags being placed across roads to block access to KFOR forces and the Kosovo police.

NATO helicopters are bringing additional troops to the conflict zone, and are reported to be flying over the border crossings approximately every 30 minutes.

There has been a strong international response on this week’s developments in Kosovo.

The US has accused Serbs of provoking violence, while the Russian Foreign ministry has expressed deep concern over the situation in Kosovo, saying that this conflict, largely perceived as a border incident, could destabilize the situation in the whole region.

Russia’s envoy to NATO, Dmitry Rogozin, has criticized NATO for a crude breach of the UN resolution on Kosovo, saying the alliance has failed to remain neutral.

In this situation, NATO has definitely taken Pristina’s side,” Rogozin told Russia’s TV channel Rossiya 24.

Russia’s Foreign Ministry has also expressed deep concern over news suggesting an emergency carriage taking the injured to hospital was fired on by Kosovo forces during Tuesday clashes at the disputed checkpoint.

On Wednesday, members of the United Nations Security Council gathered for emergency consultations in New York to discuss the situation in southern Serbia, but failed to reach a common stance on the conflict in the turbulent region.

On Thursday, Kosovo's Interior Minister Bajram Rexhepi said that roadblocks put up by local Serbs will be removed, pledging, though, that ethnic Albanian-dominated authorities will make no unilateral moves, AP reports. The removal of barriers is “inevitable” as they prevent “freedom of movement for people and goods,'' the minister said, adding that any action would be coordinated with the NATO-led KFOR forces and the European Union mission.

Kalooki Game Online

Kalooki Card Game

Kalooki (Jamaican Rummy), Kaluki, Caloochie, Kaloochi, Kallochie, Kalougie, Kallokie[1], a version of Contract Rummy, is very popular in Jamaica and former Yugoslavia.[2][3][4][5] A version called "Super Kalooki" is played in tournaments while a version called "Baby Kalooki" is often\e basic accepted tournament rules and some popular home variations.

Unlikely to Indian rummy, Kalooki is nothing but a version of Contract Rummy. Kalooki is very popular in Jamaica and Jamaican people also have versions which are called Super Kalooki and Baby Kalooki. These Kalooki Variations are nothing but some home variations that people have come up with.

Players and Cards in Kalooki

In Kalooki, there are normally three to eight players;kalooki tournaments are played with four players on each table. You can use two or more deck of cards, which would depend on the number of players. The objective of Kalooki is to go out by laying down your cards. The point values of the cards left in a player's hand when someone goes out are:

Cards Points
Joker 50
Black Ace 15
King, Queen, Jack 10
2 to 10 Face Value
Red Ace 1

Sets in Kalooki

In Kalooki a "3" is a set of three or more cards of the same rank, such as 3-3-3or J-J-J-J-J. In Kalooki, the suits of these cards are allowed and do not matter.

In Kalooki, a "4" is a run of four or more consecutive cards of the same suit. For example the 3-4-5 and 6 of hearts can make a run. In the runs of Kalooki, Aces can never fall in the middle of a run i.e. K-A-2-3 cannot be a run but A-2-3-4 can be a run.

In Kalooki, when more than one 3 is put down by any player, those 3s should be of different number/rank.

In Kalooki, when more than one 4 is put down by any player, those 4s should be of different suits.

In Kalooki games when three sets of 4s are required, a full suit of cards can be used as a substitute. In Kalooki, jokers may be used as wild cards as a substitute of any card with the following restrictions:

While playing Kalooki, you cannot use a Joker as consecutive cards in a 4. For example: Hearts5-Joker- Hearts7 is correct but Hearts5-Joker-Joker-Heart7 is not allowed as a combination.

Next important point in Kalooki is that there cannot be two jokers in a 3. For example: 5-5-Joker and 6-6- Joker-Joker are allowed but 7-Joker-Joker are not allowed in Kalooki.

Deal and Contracts in Kalooki

The players deal the cards turn by turn. Each Kalooki game consist nine hands (deals). The winner of a Kalooki game is the one who gets the lowest total score at the end of these 9 deals.

The cards in Kalooki are dealt out one at a time. The number of cards dealt to each player depends on the hand being played. Just like rummy, in Kalooki, once the cards are dealt to all the players, the immediate next card is kept face up and that becomes the start of the discard pile. The remaining cards form the draw pile from where the cards would be picked.

Eider Power Mask

Reassuring in severely cold weather. Stows in collar for greater versatility.

- Balaclava

- Anatomical cut: 3D mask shape. Protects your nose still enabling you an easy breath.

- No moisture retention thanks to the holes in front of the mouth and the nose. Enables an improved breathing

- Flatlocks seams for an enhanced comfort

- Polartec Powerstretch Cloudy

Polartec Power Shield fabrics are the next generation of technical outerwear, the soft shell.

This clothing concept goes beyond traditional 2-layer systems—which feature fleece insulation and a waterproof/breathable shell—to a single layer that protects against all but the worst weather conditions and delivers extended breathability, abrasion resistance and stretch to enhance your outdoor adventure.

Polartec Alpha is the latest evolution of synthetic insulation offering a rare combination of lightweight warmth and true breathability in a 'puffy' style garment.

Because Polartec Alpha insulation is highly durable and more stable than other synthetic insulation products, more open-construction woven face and back fabrics can be selected to create an air permeable package.

This small amount of airflow rapidly draws moisture away from the body and allows Polartec Alpha to be worn in a wider range of activities compared to classic 'vapor barrier' style insulation.

More airflow. Better breathability.

Most hard shell fabrics allow zero airflow. Even when compared to the best waterproof/breathable fabrics, Polartec NeoShell has over 2X the airflow.

This controlled exchange of air allows the process of convection to increase the transfer of moisture vapor. You won’t notice windchill. But you will feel drier.

The standard for waterproof.

For a fabric to be considered waterproof, it must withstand the industry’s requirement in hydrostatic head tests of 10,000mm of water pressure. Anything beyond this point is unnecessary as it won’t keep you any drier. You’re dry at 10,000mm. You won’t stay drier with a higher number. But you’ll likely be wetter from sweat.

Leadership Communication

Book Description

My graduate students like this book’s real-world focus on public relations as a strategic role in the C-suite. —Ron Culp, professional director, Public Relations & Advertising graduate program, DePaul University; former Senior Vice President, Chief Communication Officer, Sears Leadership in Communication is a cogent, bright, easily readable definition of what corporate communicators do. More than that, it’s an uncommonly careful look at how strategic communication defines, drives, and creates value for a commercial enterprise—its employees, its owners, and those whom they serve. —James S. O’Rourke, IV, PhD, Professor of Management, Mendoza College of Business, University of Notre Dame The quality of leadership in any organization—business, social, military, and government—is enhanced or limited by the quality of its leadership communication. The authors assert that leadership is given force by strategic communication that produces results required in competitive conditions. For the professional in enterprise communication, this brings into focus two questions: What is the relevance of communication in the leadership process of reaching best achievable outcomes (BAOs)? And, how does the primary communication professional attain expert in uence and success in a leadership position? This book provides insights and guidance on functioning at the highest levels of the corpo rate communications profession.

In this section, you will find information about the various expenses associated with enrolling at your school of interest. Tuition, generally the largest of fees, is broken down by in-state and out-of-state fields. Because students who attend schools outside of their state may find themselves paying thousands more in tuition alone, it’s important to take one’s location into consideration before selecting a school.

As college prices tend to fluctuate from year to year, we have also provided information about tuition trends. While rising prices are an unfortunate norm, greatly varying tuition rates should raise a red flag. Many students need additional time to complete their degrees, so the possibility of higher pricing should be taken into account before committing to a school.

But one may not want to use tuition alone to calculate their cost of attendance. Doing so too often leads to projections that largely differ—for better or for worse—from initial expectations. To avoid unnecessary surprises, we offer information about the estimated cost of books, supplies, room and board and additional expenses. Knowing what to expect will simplify the financial planning process and will allow students to prepare a realistic annual budget.

You can use the following prices to estimate the annual cost of attendance and to familiarize yourself with the financial aid opportunities available to students who attend this school. If you have further questions about the financial aid policies at this college, you may want to contact a financial aid representative using the provided contact information.

Keira Maguire has been quite the social butterfly lately since she rose to fame on The Bachelor. She recently went to a store opening and it looked like a night to remember… for all the wrong reasons.

From the looks of the red carpet photos, Keira had forgotten to fake tan her hands!

There is definitely a striking contrast between her hands and the rest of her body. We can totally relate – every girl has made a fake tan blunder at least once!

From the Publisher

Brain, start working! Anyone who has heard a doctor say, “I’m sorry, it’s cancer” understands this confusion. It was cancer … and it was happening to me. This made it a whole new experience. The emotions were raw, the fear was real, my faith was shaken, and the reality of my own mortality stared me in the face.

Everything seemed to go on as usual, but nothing was normal anymore. I wanted to shout at everyone, “Don’t you see life has changed? It will never be the same again?”

After surgery, I opted for prosthetics and early on was using the fiber-filled breasts. There was only one problem, and it was major! These things were too light. They kept moving up my body and hitting my chin. This was not going to work.

Chairman Christopher Cox
Securities and Exchange Commission
100 F Street, NE
Washington, DC 20549-1090

September 25, 2007

Chairman Christopher Cox

Like hundreds of others, I'm writing to request that you protect the right of investors to file shareholder resolutions and urge you to take no action on the proposed initiatives that would curtail or eliminate this essential right.

I recently took a volunteer trip to the United Republic of Tanzania. I was there for three weeks taking pictures and teaching English to students who were hungry to achieve better scores on exams, and thus, eventually, better jobs for themselves and their families. The overall goal was personal enrichment as a lead-in to economic strength and national stability.

Should American businesses perceive this as a threat? These kids - and their teachers, and their bosses, and their prospective businesses, and certainly their politicians - take their eco-political cues from the United States. If the biggest fish in the pond are American corporations, then the only chance we stand to shift world values in business is by putting our money where our collective mouth is. And we have a better chance than most.

In essence: if a big company is playing by the rules - legislative as well as moral - then they have nothing to hide. And if smaller companies see this example, they, too, will work for greater transparency and, thus, improved communities. I don't think you need me to explain how the one progenitates the other. It may be a gamble, but world markets are only as good as the companies leading them.

Thank you for your attention to my comments.

Steve Macfarlane
