But investors shouldn't get their hopes up - expectations for first quarter earnings are low.
Earnings growth for the first three months of 2012 was lackluster at best - even though the stock market produced some of the best quarterly market gains since 1998. The Dow rose some 8%, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index gained 12%, and the NASDAQ nearly climbed a whopping 19%.
If this latest batch of earnings comes with a plethora of nasty and unwelcome surprises, the recent market rally could be derailed.
Sam Stovall, chief equity strategist at S&P Capital told the Associated Press, "It's supposed to be a very weak quarter, but Wall Street is freaking out because they don't understand why."
Why First Quarter Earnings
Will Fail to Impress Analysts are expecting earnings for S&P 500 Index companies to decline 0.1% compared to the same period a year ago, according to FactSet. While a minuscule number, it marks a major turning point.
Earnings growth was on a tear for the last nine quarters. Year-over-year earnings growth has been at least 10% for all but the most recent period, when it was 6%.
Reasons for the expected slowdown in the first quarter of 2012 include:
- A slowdown in stalwart China.
- Rising oil prices.
- The ongoing Eurozone sovereign debt crisis.
- And hard to beat double-digit growth in previous quarters.
The slide in corporate earnings follows a stellar and extended period of sizable gains.
In 2011's first quarter, earnings soared 19%. That was on top of the 53% growth in the previous year as companies regained momentum from a very gloomy first quarter.
That is one tough act to follow.
Lawrence Creatura, a portfolio manager at Federated Investors told The New York Times, "You still have growth, but at a slower pace."
Just three of the 10 sectors in the S&P 500 Index are expected to show earnings growth in the first quarter. They include industrial, technology and consumer staples companies. The energy industry is predicted to show flat earnings results.
Meanwhile, of the remaining six, marketing and telecommunications are expected to show the biggest drops, hurt by a worldwide slowdown, according to a survey conducted by Thomas Reuters.
How Markets Will React to First Quarter Earnings
Why do the markets care about earnings so much? Well for one thing, earnings matter.
More often than not a company's stock movement is directly correlated with its earnings, moving in the same direction. Market participants frequently trade on what they anticipate for the stock in the months ahead.
Sometimes, after much discussion and activity, a company's earnings are already reflected in a stock's price. Other times, especially in light of big revelations, a company's share price can be very adversely affected.
But, despite all the clamoring about the end of earnings growth, analysts are expecting only a short-term decline. By the second quarter, earnings growth is projected to return to 7%, and 5% growth is anticipated for the third quarter, according to FactSet.
Alcoa is expected to report a loss of 4 cents a share when it reports after the close Tuesday.
On Friday, the market gets numbers before the opening bell from JPMorgan Chase & Co., (NYSE: JPM), forecast to report $1.15 a share, and Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC), predicted to weigh in with earnings of 72 cents a share.

Good job tcberry !
The World of Gotha is an impressive project. I like the coloring and general style, but the mountains are a little bit hard too read.
Like the constructed script too.
This map is for the World of Gotha, a collaborative geofiction project set in a pseudo-Victorian setting. Atregona is my nation, which is a sprawling, corrupt oligarchy, struggling to compete against more technologically advanced nations.
Most of the nations in the world appropriate foreign languages for use within their nations, and the national language of Atregona is a somewhat mangled version of Basque. The script featured on the map, however, is a constructed script.

Good clean map overall, though it looks more like an expriment for the four-colour-theorem than a genuine map. The differing colouration for every province (banner?) adds more confusion than information for the viewer. I would try to keep the layout simpler.
@Ilanthar - I wanted them to read as contour lines, I suppose it doesn't exactly come off that way?
@Freodin - So you would recommend omitting the coloration altogether, or just toning it down?
The contours might read better at a higher resolution. At this size, they just turn into mush. Likewise, the political coloring might look better at a larger size—if this were a poster map, for instance.
And combining topographic and political maps into the same image may also hinder understanding. What is the purpose of the map? Who uses it, and what information do they need when they do so? Perhaps you could split the data onto two simpler maps.
Bryan Ray, visual effects artist
I think you have too many political subdivision on a map of this size. Like Midgardsormr said, it's probably too much information.
The way it is now suggests that the important information that this map provides are the political subunits of your country. But beyond the borders, there is no information given about these regions - like names, important cities or such, (as in this map of England's counties, for example). I'd say that the scale of the map is even too small to provide such informations.
So I would try to put the focus on larger regions / political units - the areas delineated by the broader black borderlines, perhaps? - and just hint at the subunits with uncoloured, perhaps dotted lines. The smaller subdivisions could be presented in other, larger-scale, maps.

I kinda agree with Midagardsorm, a higher resolution is probably a solution, and the purpose of the map is a good guideline.
Maybe you can use a shadowing effect and a small number of contour lines or a different coloring effect to make it more easy to read.
Just a few ideas, I don't know if it helps...
I think it's good. What's the pink line in the middle ?

[♪ Music ♪] [Adobe Developer Connection] Hi there, my name is Serge and I work on Adobe's Developer Evangelism team, and I want to talk to you today a little bit about building mobile applications with Flash Builder 4.5 and the Flex 4.5 framework. Here we are in Flash Builder 4.5 and immediately on the start page you already see a bunch of tutorials that you can click on and they just help get you on your way. But in this video, we're just going to create a quick little mobile application so you can see how that works. So in Flash Builder, you can now select to build a new Flex Mobile project like this, and when you do that, it'll ask you a couple of things. First of all, obviously, what's the name of your project. So we'll call this Adobe Evangelists and then hit next. Now in this screen, you actually get a couple of different settings and application templates. First of all, it'll ask you what your target platform is. Now right now this only says Google Android, but we'll be adding other platforms to this as well. The next selection you need to make is the application template. You can actually create a completely blank application using the blank templates. There's a view-based application. We'll actually use that in this demo, and also a tabbed-based application where you can just set up a bunch of tabs to navigate any application. But like I said, we're going to use the view-based application template, and that's the one that we're going to use. The next settings here are the application settings. What do you want the application to do? Do you want it to automatically reorient when you turn your device to the landscape mode or portrait modes? Do you want to go full screen and things like that? I'm just going to take the defaults here. I'm going to select the automatically reorientation, and everything else I'm going to leave like that. Then when I click "finish" it's going to create that application for me based on the template that I selected, and the application or Flash Builder now actually created a bunch of application views. We're going to start off with the home view, so that's the first MXML file that you can start building. Now what I'm going to do is actually load a little XML file with all the names and information from all the Adobe Evangelists that are available throughout the world. So I'll just use an HDP service component and give that a name. So I'll call this "evangelistsXML" and then load the actual XML file, and that's going to be on adobeevangelists.com/evangelists.xml like that. Now because I'm using the Flex framework for this mobile application, I can also use all the Flex framework features, things like data binding and stuff like that, I can use that here as well. But let's just jump into design view really quickly and set up our application. So I'm going to need a list because I want to show everyone that's on the evangelism list So I'll just constrain it to the full size of the application and that needs to be zero instead of 100, like that, and then I'm going to use data binding to actually get the data coming back from that HDP service call and use that in my list. So I'll set up the data provider to listen to whatever comes back from that service call. So evangelistsXML and then I'll say lastresult.evangelists, and I want all evangelist nodes in this list, displaying in this list. Let's see, what else am I going to do? I'm going to make sure that whenever I'm in the home view that it's actually going to get that XML file, right? So I'll say "creation complete" and then generate a complete handler, and this also is one of the new features in Flash Builder 4.5. You can easily rename that complete handler if you want to. So I'll just say omit instead of what it defaults to. And then I'll say evangelistsXML.send. That will send off that HDP service call and that should be enough. Now that's going to get a bunch of data, not just the name, but also the location of the evangelist, what type of work he does, the biography, and all that stuff is going to be in that XML file. So I'll just need to say that the label field that we want to show in that list is actually going to be the name. All right, let's see what happens if we launch this now. It's going to ask how I want to launch this. I can actually launch this on the desktop or on a device that I actually have connected with USB. I'm going to do that later. I'm just for testing purposes going to use the desktop first, and I'll select one of the devices that you can easily set up, and this is actually the one that I have so I'll use that one. Click run and it's going to open it up in this sort of emulator view, and there you can see that this list is now running nicely, and you can also see that it has those specific mobile characteristics of a list, we can throw it around and stuff like that. Now when I click on this I actually want to go to another view in my aplication to show the details of this person. So that's what we'll set up next. So in my views folder I create a new view by just creating a new MXML component, and it will be based on the Spark component, the actual view Spark components, and I'll just give that a name. I'll call it "details" and click finish. Now in here, again, I'll just quickly jump into design view and set this up a little bit so it looks sort of nice. It doesn't have to be perfect, right? But we'll say that we want a little image here, and that will be something like that, and I'll constrain it to the top of the application, and then also add a little label here, and that's where we're going to display the job title. So I'll say data.jobtitle I think I name it. Now instead of this label here, so it automatically defaults to the name of that view, I actually want to display the name of the person that I clicked on. So I'll also use data binding for this, and I'll say data.name instead of details. That doesn't really mean anything. Now all these new components and all these new views actually have mobile specific features. So if I drag a button over to this action bar as we call it here, you see that I can actually drop a button in that little part that is called the action content of your action bar. So I'll drop that in there, and I'll just say that whenever we click on this we're going to go back to the list. All right, I'm going to go jump back into source view and then wire all this up. So I'll say whenever I click on this button I'm going to generate a click handler. So I'll call this "back button click" or something like that. And then I'm going to go back to the previous view that we were in, and I'm just going to do that by calling the navigator, which is part of this whole template. So navigator.popview, which will then go back to the view that we were originally on. And then when I'm in my main view and click on the list, then I'm going to go into the actual details view. So on my list I'll say "change" and add a change handler there as well, and I'll just leave that to the default. And then I'm going to say "navigator.pushview", and I'm going to push the details view, and I'm also going to tell it which data object that it should use for that as well. So I'm going to say "events.target" which will then point to the list, and the selected item is what we need there. So what happens here is when I click on the list, it's going to send the data from the selected item to the details view, and then I can use that in the details view as well. So let's see if this actually works. You never know. So I'll click on "Allen", and you see that Allen is actually already titled for my details view. It's now his name and he works for Strategic solutions. So that works. The image doesn't work yet because I forgot to set that up. So in my image I'll say that the source is going to be data.profileimage, and I know that it doesn't have the full path or the full url to that profile image so I'll just add adobeevangelists.com. I should see his photo and that back button works as well, and you see it automatically does those transitions and all those things, so it's really easy for you to build a mobile application like this. I'll just quickly finish this up. I'll also add the biography for the evangelist, and I'll use a text area for that. Like that, make sure it's nicely in the correct position. Like that, and this should be probably something like 160. That looks nice, and then I'll also use data binding to tie this to the actual biography. And I'll do one more label here, which is going to be the location. All right, let's run it again. Click on someone else here, and you see that the biography now shows up, the location shows up and the actual text area is also mobile enabled so you can also throw that around if you want to, things like that. So very easy to really, really build this quickly. In just a couple of minutes you can build an application like this. Now the really cool thing is that you can also run this on your phone, so you can see what it looks like on your phone and how it behaves on your phone. So let's do that as well. So I'm going to go into my run configuration, and I'm going to say I'm not going to launch it on the desktop, I'm actually going to launch it on whichever device I have connected. So when I click "run", let me just make sure that I have my device set up correctly. Click "run" and then it's going to compile the application, send it to my phone, install it on my phone, so as you can see it's really easy to test the application on your device while you're still developing it, and that is the power of Flex 4.5 and Flash Builder 4.5. So hopefully that gives you a little bit of an idea on how easy it is to build mobile applications using our tools. If you want more information than check out Adobe's devnet, and I'll see you next time. [Adobe Developer Connection]

Operation Asier Illarramendi is not going to be plain sailing by any stretch of the imagination. Real Madrid has a struggle on its hands if it is going to lure the midfielder away from San Sebastian this summer, not least with a €30 million release clause to contend with.
What's more, rumours abound as to an alleged unwritten pact in the Real Sociedad dressing room. The players have apparently vowed not to leave this summer so as to fulfil the dream of getting through the Champions League qualifiers and into the group phase. To rub salt into the wounds, Illarramendi is a firm fan favourite.
The Basque youngster has all the ingredients to take up the baton from countryman Xabi Alonso – big shoes to fill indeed – but the Real Sociedad board is unwilling to budge from the €30 million release clause to which the midfielder and his teammates are tied. The San Sebastián outfit has no pressing need to sell and president Jokin Aperribay has made it abundantly clear that anyone interested in making off with one of the club's crown jewels is going to have to fork out the full fee.
If that weren't enough, Illara is under contract until 2018 – longer than many of his illustrious teammates, including heavyweights like Prieto and Bravo and Spain under-21 teammate Iñigo Martínez, all of whom signed new deals until 2017. A new, improved contract could also be in the pipeline, accompanied by a move to up his buyout clause to the biggest in the club's history.
I'd say I'm a bit Antimadridista, although one does not know where their future will be, but it's a team that I never liked. t seems to me that it is an arrogant club with how the players behave. Without humility you cannot get anywhere.
quote:No, I don´t think so. I think he may be so, heading into 2015.
Does that make Xabi expendable right now?
quote:Or Kondogbia, or Matic.
Alonso is not expendable until Gundogan is in white IMO.

The road is coming along quite ok and I'm happy with the gravel at the edges of the road. Also added some basic grass textures to get more live to the ground
Here is a little of something I started today. This is going to be a roadside encounter and will be used in my game in few weeks. This is basically my first battlemat Im doing, so I guess Ill be redoing things many times before Im finished.
The road is coming along quite ok and I'm happy with the gravel at the edges of the road. Also added some basic grass textures to get more live to the ground
This is the point I got with this yesterday. I try to finish this fast (in two evenings) to find reasonable ways to do the battlemats quickly. I should be able to spend few hours to finish this today after I get the kids to bed.
Though I'm a bit worried that this map starts to have too much going on in it. In my opinion less is more what comes to battlemats. I will tone it down in the next version and maybe few other tricks to make it less busy.
Really nice texturing you have there. Are you going to print this out when you are done?
Thanks Rav, yes I will print it out. I only have possibility to print A3 size color prints, which means the mat will consist of four A3 sheets taped together. The samples attahed here are ½ of the original resolution. The actual size is 3200x2300 so when printed out, it will be 100dpi which is enough for the purpose.
Yup, the textures are pretty solid Now to see what else joins thems.
I think this one is finished, or is it? Do you think it is ok as it is or should it be toned down or add/remove something? I already made the ground less green to get the bushes and trees more visible.
Outstanding! This is exactly the kind of map all VTT GMs need. Something realistic and generic enough to drop in almost anywhere.

We do not stop playing because we grow old.

Wow, that is utterly beautiful! Some of the best texturing I've seen on this site (but then you are the texture Meister!)
Looks wonderful, Pasis.
The only thing I'm not a fan of is the digitally shiny hill thing in the south but your boulders and rocks look fantastic.

However, one could argue that the lack of emergency doors was a reason as to why everything escalated. Gotta check on them rules about what is a must in Brazil.
Nothing changed and nothing will ever change, not in my lifetime thats for sure.
Just to give you an idea, there was a famous guy who killed his ex-girlfriend, he told the police that he did kill her (I don't remember the reason), 15 years late he's still free.

I suspect that most every elk hunter who habitually pursues the wily animals (and it is a habit, much like smoking, and for some equally addictive) can tell you about the one shot they yearn to have a second chance at.
The arrow that nicked an unseen limb.
The bullet nudged off course by a sudden gust.
I'm referring, obviously, to shots that missed the target.
But there are other cases, albeit of extreme rarity, when the hunter's aim was true but he wishes, given time to reflect, that he had not pulled the bowstring or the trigger.
I received a letter last week about one such situation.
As with most elk tales, this one involves a bull.
But it's also a story about private property rights, and hunting ethics, and how episodes that involve good people, acting as their conscience dictates, can end badly for all concerned.
Sean Cleaver and John Ward traveled to Baker County from their homes in Northern California to hunt elk during the archery season in September.
For five days the pair hunted high in the Wallowas.
No elk.
After several days more of fruitless searching at lower elevations, the archers decided to scout the 150-acre property where they were staying.
Dennis and Kathy Farster own the land, which is along Eagle Creek several miles north of Richland.
The Farsters, who bought the property in 1972, also have a home in Northern California; but they visit their Eagle Creek home and property several times each year. They like to hunt elk and chukar. Cleaver is their son-in-law, and Ward is the brother of the Farsters' other son-in-law.
To the hunters' surprise, the Farsters' property harbored three bull elk.
It took two days of stalking, but Ward and Cleaver crept to within arrow range of a six-point bull.
They hit the bull three times.
But bull elk are not easily killed by arrows — even arrows tipped with razor-sharp blades.
As is typical, the wounded bull ran.
It left a prominent trail of blood, however, a trail Cleaver and Ward had no trouble following.
They were chagrined, though, to watch the bull leap the fence that marks the boundary of a 690-acre parcel owned by Peter Martin and Karen Riener.
Ward and Cleaver hiked to their pickup truck and drove down the road. They looked for evidence that the elk had continued past Martin's property.
There was none.
The hunters then went to Martin's trailer and asked him if they could come onto his property. They wanted to finish off the animal in case it was still alive, and to tag the animal and salvage the meat.
Martin refused.
Which he is entitled to do.
He owns the property.
Ward and Cleaver telephoned the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife office in Baker City.
An employee there referred the pair to the Oregon State Police.
They explained their predicament to Lt. Randy Scorby, who works in the OSP's Wildlife Division in Baker City.
Scorby told me last week what he told Ward and Cleaver in September: That neither he, nor they, could force Martin to let the hunters enter his property to retrieve the bull.
Scorby said he told the hunters that he would meet with Martin and try to "mediate" the matter.
"It's very rare that a landowner absolutely refuses to allow a hunter to salvage a wounded animal," Scorby told me. "But he has every right to do that. He does not have to allow us or the Fish and Wildlife Department or anyone onto his property."
Scorby said Ward and Cleaver did not ask him to talk with Martin.
The hunters, not surprisingly, were distraught about their experience.
The Farster, Ward and Cleaver families e-mailed a letter to the Baker City Herald, writing, in part: "We think that because of Mr. Martin, a wonderful animal was needlessly wasted and THAT is morally and ethically wrong! Needless to say, our family is just sick about the whole affair."
Kathy Farster told me in a telephone interview last week that Cleaver, her son-in-law, was disillusioned about how the episode — his first trip hunting elk with a bow — ended.
"It was just a total, disastrous waste," Farster said.
I understand why she and her family are disgusted.
Ward and Cleaver acted properly, as true sportsmen.
They hunted where they were supposed to hunt. They had tags that allowed them to kill the bull.
After wounding the elk they followed it. After watching the bull cross Martin's fence, they asked for his permission to track it, rather than trespass, as slob hunters would have done.
"They did everything right," Scorby said.
Martin, meanwhile, did nothing wrong, legally.
And although I disagree with his decision to deny the hunters access, I respect Martin's right to make that choice.
Ownership of private property, after all, is among the fundamental principles of American society.
It wasn't Martin's fault that the wounded bull ran onto his property.
Yet it seems to me unsatisfying, and a bit irresponsible, to justify Martin's choice by rhapsodizing about high-minded notions of inviolable Constitutional rights while ignoring certain other significant facts.
The reality is that Ward and Cleaver lawfully killed a fine bull elk but, through no fault of their own, they were unable to use any part of the animal.
That's a pity.
"A worst-case scenario," in Kathy Farsters' words.
I agree.
Steve Eaton, who lives along Eagle Creek, built the Farsters' home. He knows, and respects, both the Farsters and Martin.
Eaton described the September incident to me as "a clash of basic philosophy."
I think he's right.
Martin's philosophy, it seems to me, is that it was better to let the bull rot, and nourish scavengers, than to let Ward and Cleaver slice the animal into steaks and jerky.
I disagree.
I don't mean that Martin was wrong — there is no true or false in this matter, only opinions.
Or, as Eaton put it, philosophies.
But I feel certain that Martin's philosophy represents a minuscule minority of the population.
Even among people who oppose hunting I doubt there are more than a relative handful who, if asked to decide whether to allow Ward and Cleaver to salvage the elk, would have sent them away.
Martin's phone number in Richland has been disconnected, and I haven't been able to find an alternate number. Kathy Farster said Martin apparently travels to New Zealand occasionally.
In any case, the handwritten letter Martin sent to the Farsters, dated Oct. 4 and addressed to "Mr. Farster," explains why he turned the hunters away.
Martin describes, for instance, how he first saw a bull elk and its herd of 20 near Eagle Creek in September 2008, one day after his friend died.
"What a timely, even symbolic, consolation!" Martin wrote. "It was comforting, in the following weeks, to know the presence of this life with which we shared the land.
"That comfort is no more, thanks to you."
Martin explained that although the elk ate much fruit from his orchard, and damaged other fruit and conifer trees he and his wife planted, "it is all worth it to us, to see them reside here."
Martin also wrote about his feelings regarding hunting: "When visiting hunters come and take the best or most unique of life that crosses their paths, they succeed in maximizing their impact in the pursuit of personal gratification, but they unwittingly degrade the genetic quality and variety of life."
He concluded the letter by criticizing Farster (from the context of the letter, Martin apparently mistook either Ward or Cleaver for Dennis Farster, although Farster did not accompany the hunters and was not in Baker County at the time):
"I do not regard you as a neighbor at all. The elk were our neighbors. I regard you as an absentee owner of land adjacent to ours, who comes annually to his vacation cabin to take from nature whatever he can get. Therefore, especially now, I see you more as a seasonal raider, whose arrival is unwelcome, and whose departure is a relief, except for the wake of loss."
That Martin occasionally approaches eloquence in his writing does not, it seems to me, soften even slightly his blatant hostility toward the Farsters.
I think it's reasonable for a person to oppose, or even to despise, hunting.
But I'm offended by anybody who implies, as it seems to me Martin does in his letter, that hunters seek only to inflate their egos by stealing from the gentle and harmonious natural world.
Sure some hunters are louts.
They're the sort who, unlike Ward and Cleaver, would have sauntered onto Martin's property, claimed the bull as though they were entitled to do so, and told Martin to go to hell if he tried to interfere.
But I can't envision most of the hunters I know acting so callously.
Most of the hunters I know mainly like to get out in the air and procure some lean meat without relying on somebody else to bloody their hands making the kill.
This sort of hunter, which I think comprises the majority, respects the elk as much as Martin does.
To borrow his word, hunters are indeed "takers" — but in precisely the way that the elk which pilfered Martin's orchard are.
I confess that I simply don't understand what makes the elk so different from the man, or why it's a beautiful scene to behold when an elk plucks pears from a tree but a heinous crime when a man shoots an elk.
Maybe the answer is that elk can't figure out the drive-through at McDonald's.
Anyway it seems to me inconsistent that Martin, despite his disdain for hunters, declined even to allow Ward and Cleaver to make sure the bull was dead.
I expected that someone who cares deeply about elk, as Martin obviously does, would not let the bull suffer when he was capable of preventing such an ordeal.
Ultimately, it saddens me that although the letter of no law was broken during this episode, the spirit of a very important law was, it seems to me, eviscerated.
That's the law that prohibits hunters from wasting the meat from a game animal.
No one will be cited.
Ward and Cleaver acted lawfully in shooting the elk; and as Scorby pointed out, it was Martin's invoking of his property rights, not the hunters' negligence, that led to the elk being wasted.
Yet Martin won't be punished either.
Which also seems fair to me.
He didn't shoot the elk.
What I'm left with, then, is a group of people, all of whom celebrate the elk, but for vastly different, but equally compelling, reasons.
All of these people are angry about what happened last month along Eagle Creek.
None of them won.
None of them lost.
And of the bull, little is probably left now but a hide and bones.

Thanks! And Hexagon looks potentially useful as well.
Hey guys, just thought I'd let you all know that Bryce 7 Pro (a 3d terrain modelling program) is being offered for free this month over at www.daz3d.com for this month. They're also offering full versions of some of their other software for free as well.
Thanks! And Hexagon looks potentially useful as well.
For the paranoid amongs us, it does require registering with the site to download. and it did ask for a billing/shipping address.
however the download is taking place right now.. and it sent me the serials.. and it appears there are a fair number of add ons available that come along with the download.
and yeah, no charge!

So I was doing a bit of research, since to me, the concept of "if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is" is more a truism than not.
That's a lot of money they're passing up. But then I looked at one of the posts on their forum and it all makes sense.
Tilt said it very well a few days ago.. "However "free" is a matter of keeping out of the shop after you bought it - I'm now a platinum member and have all ready bought a lot of stuff *lol* "
They're counting on new customers getting hooked.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that as a bad thing. In fact this will probably help quite a bit. Looking through pirate sites for the program isn't worth the effort compared to getting the real thing with full support... and if the extras are reasonably priced then there's a huge increase to that market.
I've been saying that the big software programs should be more reasonably priced for a long time. And this would certainly help that.

"...sometimes the most efficient way to make something look drawn by hand is to simply draw it by hand..."
I agree, this is definitly the way to go - some people will never buy anything, but they wouldn't buy the program anyway - but a percentage of those who get the program will turn to the shops at some point - and perhaps buy upgrades and such... DAZ 3D has two "bigger" versions as well that people might buy at some point

This makes me a happy camper! Now to find some time to use this stuff ... -.-
FYI, you don't have to provide a physical address to download the software. I just went ahead and clicked through without trouble.
Maybe someday I'll actually learn how to use it. I picked up Bryce 5.5 when they released it for free but never got much past installing it.

Yeah, I remember tinkering with Bryce on a Macintosh Quadra back in 1996. I might get it for purely nostalgic purposes.

One of the biggest targets left on the Ohio State board is Brooklyn (N.Y.) Abraham Lincoln defensive tackle Thomas Holley and the Rivals100 star made an official visit to Columbus (Ohio) this past weekend to check out the Buckeyes as they hosted the Iowa Hawkeyes.Holley has taken official visits to both Ohio State and Penn State but holds a slew of offers and why wouldn't he? He is ranked as the No. 67 player in the nation by Rivals.com, checks in at 6-foot-4, 299 pounds, and pretty much could pick any school in the nation to attend if he wanted to.Holley was flanked on the trip by fellow Brooklyn and current Ohio State commit Curtis Samuel but this was a chance for Holley to really get a look at Ohio State on his own and come to his own conclusions."It went well and I learned a lot of information and had a good time," Holley said.Holley and Samuel played against each other on Friday night and both made it out to Ohio on Saturday and that is when things started to pick up for Holley."I hung out with the coaches and players and talked to the academic people and picked up a lot of information," Holley added. "I got to watch the game and watched practice and went to dinner with the team. It was a good time and a good experience."The four-star DT spent most of his time with two coaches in particular during his trip."I spent the most time with Mike Vrabel and Urban Meyer," Holley said.And the message is pretty clear from Ohio State to Holley."They told they needed me and I could have a positive role in their program," Holley said.

The operculum is partly in the most posterior portion of the inferior frontal gyrus of the frontal lobe in the brain. One famous part of the operculum is Broca's area which plays an important role in conversation or speech production, reading and writing.
Post-mortem, this portion of Albert Einstein's brain was found to be missing.[1]

A Superior Court judge says jurors can be told that attorneys for a man who's charged with killing a 5-year-old Fayetteville girl told police where to find to her body.
But Judge Jim Ammons ruled Monday they can't say the information came directly from Mario McNeill. The 32-year-old McNeill is charged with raping and killing 5-year-old Shaniya Davis in November 2009.
Shaniya's body was found in a kudzu patch near the Lee-Harnett county line. She was found six days after her mother, Antoinette Nicole Davis, reported her missing.
Investigators say Davis sold her daughter to McNeill to pay off a drug debt. She'll be tried after McNeill's trial ends.
Last week, Ammons ruled that McNeill is competent to stand trial.

searching for the perfect name: updated list page 2
So here is our list so far- I'd love opinions as well as suggestions -not sure if we have found 'the one' yet, especially for the girls. Most of our names on the list are quite vintage in style, but we would love other styles of suggestions too that you think we might like and fit with Maximilian (Max) and Felix-no x names please! We are particularly on the look out for French and/or Italian names for girls.
So far we have:
Harold (front runner at the moment)
Wilfred (dh has fallen in love with this nn Wilfie- I'm not sure if I can shake the dog association)
Annie (not a fan of Anne, still coming up with a longer form)
Beatrice (dh was not keen on this but is starting to warm up.. not sure if it will last!)

The major topics I'm working on and I have been working on are:


text: Maximilian Riedel designed this distinctive decanter to complement the company's casual "O" wine tumblers. One noteworthy feature is its integral thumb hold in the base that assists one-handed pouring, a design attribute that increases aeration. The decanter's wide, elliptical mouth facilitates filling and promotes a smooth, drip-free pour. Perfect for entertaining or everyday use, the lead-crystal serving vessel is masterfully handcrafted in Austria by Riedel, a family-owned company famous for fine glassware since 1756. Hand-washing is recommended. 34.5-oz. cap. (holds the contents of a standard 750-ml. bottle); 9" high.
