A system of displaying the difficulty of a song in Dance Dance Revolution, first used in DDR 6th Mix (DDR MAX). It is represented as a circle with a star shape in the middle that stretches to show the values of five points on it. It was created to give players a better idea of what to expect when going into a song, instead of just an arbitrary number for difficulty, the foot rating (although this was later put back in under the groove radar in DDR 7th Mix aka DDR MAX 2.)
AIR represents the frequency of "jumps" (two-arrow hits) in a song.
FREEZE represents the frequency of hold arrows.
STREAM is the overall density of steps in the song.
VOLTAGE is the maximum density of steps.
CHAOS is still somewhat unknown. A DDR simulator called Stepmania represents Chaos as the number of off-beat steps (as in, not 4th or 8th notes), but in actual DDR games, it seems to be the overall "irregularity" of steps.

Get the Rectal Raider mug.(FINANCE) someone like Carl Icahn or Victor Posner; a manager of a PE fund or takeover vehicle (e.g., T. Boone Pickens with Mesa Petroleum) who organizes hostile takeovers of undervalued corporations.
WHY THEY'RE BAD
Corporate raiders insist they're looking out for the shareholder by forcing the managers to focus on increasing the value of the firm. If a company's share prices are high, it supposedly reflects well on the management of the firm; if the prices are low, the shareholders presumably would benefit from the takeover battle and subsequent change of management.
The flaw in this argument is (a) shareholders are not the only stakeholders in the corporation; workers, neighbors, and consumers also have interests that deserve protection; and (b), the impact of the corporate raider on FUTURE shareholders is inherently damaging over the long run because the targeted corporation's share prices are driven to a higher baseline anyway. After the takever battle between the raider and management, FUTURE buyers of the stock pay a higher price but are stuck with stagnant share prices because further increases don't make economic sense.
If the leveraged buyout succeeds, the company is saddled with debt in excess of its book value, which imposes an extreme burden; if it fails (greenmail), then company is still saddled with immense debt.

Usually a corporate raider makes his killing by risking (and mostly losing) the money of other people.
He usually quotes Ayn Rand bromides about his adversaries being moochers and wreckers, but he destroys the livelihood of thousands, and he makes his fortune through ambush.
