pearls before swine, contributorI've been buying JO. I was surprised at the size of the bounce, but don't think the dog-days of coffee are over. There's still plenty of it around. But, something will happen one of these years--there's a lot of specialty shops in China trying to convince the Chinese that it's a cool thing. Sooner or later a disease will hit the plants--seems to always happen, and farmer care drops when prices are low.
Jo is one of my larger long term positions. The price now is pretty close to what it costs for the farmer to produce coffee. Sure it can stay this low for a while or even go lower, but the chance of something going wrong with the crop in the next several years is pretty high. When that happens coffee will increase dramatically. Each year it cost the farmer more to grow the coffee. If prices stay where they are now it will make no economic sense for them to continue growing coffee and will turn the land over to some other use.
This is exactly what I was talking about SBUX is not just coffee company. You have to be extra careful about coffee's price as commodity which can be really pain in the butt. I have quite a few commodities including futures oil, it can be a night mare - just look at the gold now. Something like that happens, SBUX is done. BTW SBUX is down again today while all other stocks are up in general
pearls before swine, contributorI don't know the exact answer. I have read the JO prospectus. The two salient features are that they use something called the "Dow Jones Coffee Subindex" and that it is designed as a note which matches that index less a cumulative 0.75% per year. I find that it's pretty close to the coffee price published on FinViz minus a modest amount (roughly a penny to a penny and a quarter) for the charge that has accumulated over time.
pearls before swine, contributor
pearls before swine, contributorYes. But it's still what I'd consider a half or third-size position. I'm prepared to hold it for a couple of years. I bought at coffee prices of about $1.15 and $1.10, but got greedy looking for $1.00. We'll see if this was the last dip... but I doubt it.

Lest we lose sight of the fact....
OPY closes over 30.
If you call a member of a fraternity a "frat" boy, what do you call someone from the country?
Nice comment about the ghetto. You fell just short of calling me a nigger. Do you hate all niggers or just the one's in the ghetto? How do you feel about kikes, spics, micks and dagos?
By the way...we don't have a ghetto in the city I live in. We've priced the poor folk outta the market.
Why do you hate choppenchurner?
i'm having fun too, mr. projection! or should i say mr.liar since "this isn't your cup of tea" (boo-hoo), yet you are still answering...nice to know i can have so much an effect that you simply can't help yourself! i should charge you for this therapy session junior...
circus all you've done is made everyone laugh in my office. You are a bad joke, you let your emotions take control, that makes you lose sight of what is at hand. But I am not here to tell you what that is. ADIOS AMIGOS KEEP'EM COMING BOYS we'll continue to have a good laugh here. Oops. Did I just use the word "boy"s?
I thought you were above all of this? I thought you were to say no more? Darn...
Thank you for the sociology lesson, back-peddler...YOU must know that whenever someone speaks colloquially of the ghetto, no one sees white folks,so spare me your impotent little attempt to justify your latent issues...Who said anything about "pure white"???
You really should say au revoir, adios,
kwa heri, sayonara, farvel and auf wiedersehen and mean it this time, mister pompous.
LOL. The ghetto, as you must know, is not just black/brown/yellow or what have you, it is also white. Go to middle America and then you'll see how poor white america can be. And thanks for the latin lesson, I should have just written ADIOS. The thing here is that you are one of those people who mirror themselves after those whose ass they kiss. Go and enjoy your pure white frat boy's ass and I'll just continue to laugh at the utter nonsense that goes on here. By the by the word boy was used as it's meant to be used and not in the context that YOU took it in. I guess English will ALWAYS be my fourth language :( C'est la vie
Boys, enough of this circus. Let's focus on the real circus - the joke (I mean firm) known as Budstock.
isn't that pot calling the kettle black??
YOU brought up "ghetto" and "BOY" and now that you are called on your digressions, you try to put on airs? Puh-lease!!
--and it's "adieu" not "ADIU"...
most of us are just venting here, that's all--if you are an emotionally unstable sort, please, yes, just go away. Buh-bye.
Listen, I will not fall into this vicious cycle everyone is in. This is the last thing I will say... The racism and idiocy that goes on in this message board is not my cup of tea. I should have never gotten involved. Keep your insatiable distaste of this firm and continue your vociferous disgust with bud and bud lite for IT WILL NOT accomplish any of your goals. We will all be gone and those two idiots will still be here. Just like Cher and raoches. Good luck to all of you...I will say nothing else. :-I
what are you talking about??? "josephthal" is obviously some smartass white frat boy...your effete analogy about the "ghetto" only highlights your pretzel logic and utter lack of sophistication in the art of polemics...

Did you know that you may be required to get an approval for coverage from your health plan before you have a planned medical service or procedure? This is called a pre-approval, and it helps you:

If your doctor gives you a service that requires a pre-approval without requesting one, you may have to pay extra costs. Refer to your benefit booklet to see your medical benefits and pre-approval requirements.
To avoid extra costs always ask your healthcare provider to request a pre-approval before you have a planned medical service.
The list shows some services and procedures that require a pre-approval.
Your doctor has the most current list and medical information needed to request a pre-approval on your behalf.

The annual adidas ESP camp for girls concluded with the selection of 36 players to East and West teams that competed in the camp's all-star game Saturday at Cal Poly Pomona University in Pomona, Calif. For the complete all-star teams ...
Most of the players were high school sophomores. The only juniors (playing on opposite all-star teams) were the Payne twins, Sydney and Shelby, from RSL Florida and IMG Academy. Four freshmen were selected.
The sophomore class was headed by Riley Houle (Oakwood SC), who was attending her second adidas ESP camp. Other standouts included Clarissa Wedemeyer, one of four all-stars from the Dallas Texans, No. 1 in Soccer America's Best Girls Clubs rankings. Sarah Killion(Ft. Wayne Fever) has reportedly made a verbal commitment to attend UCLA.
The camp is a showcase for college coaches, and the heavy participation of sophomores reflects the emphasis top programs now place on locking up leading players by the beginning of their junior years.

Skylight Music Theatre's 'Sound of Music' debuts Friday
How do you solve a problem like Maria? The Skylight Music Theatre begins working out that dilemma Friday, when it opens "The Sound of Music" at the Broadway Theatre Center.
After "The Music Man" was a big hit last season in the holiday slot, the Skylight turned to this popular Rodgers-Hammerstein musical, which is shaping up as its biggest show ever, in two different ways. It's already been extended to a total run of eight weeks, with 42 performances, and it features a cast of 63 performers, with some children's roles double-cast a la First Stage Children's Theater productions. »Read Full Article

Homosexuals get a bad rap
While Mister Cee is one of the most influential DJs in the hip-hop industry, he feared how he'd be accepted if it was ever discovered that he has sex with other men. Now he knows.
Cee, who spent 20 years as a DJ with Hot 97 in New York, knew that the hip-hop industry is hypocritical on its views of homosexuality. Amid lingering rumors and after being outed by a cross-dresser a few weeks ago, Cee was forced out of the closet. A female artist who is bisexual or gay will generally be accepted, but such an admission from a male artist could doom his career. »Read Full Article(14)

General Dynamics Corporation (NYSE:GD)
Q3 2009 Earnings Call
October 28, 2009 11:30 am ET
Amy Gilliland – Staff Vice President Investor Relations
Jay L. Johnson – President, Chief Executive Officer & Director
L. Hugh Redd – Chief Financial Officer & Senior Vice President
Heidi Wood – Morgan Stanley

David Strauss – UBS
Ronald Epstein – Bank of America Merrill Lynch
Welcome to the Q3 2009 General Dynamics earnings conference call. At this time all participants are in a listen only mode. We will conduct a question and answer session towards the end of this conference. (Operator Instructions) As a reminder, this conference is being recorded for replay purposes. I would now like to turn the call over to Ms. Amy Gilliland, Staff Vice President Investor Relations.
Amy Gilliland
Welcome to the General Dynamics third quarter conference call. I want to remind listeners that as always, any forward-looking statements made today represent our best estimates regarding the company's outlooks. These estimates are subject to some risk and uncertainties. Additional information regarding these factors is contained in the company's 10K and 10Q filings. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to our President and Chief Executive Officer Jay Johnson.
Jay L. Johnson
General Dynamics exceeded expectations in the third quarter on very good operational performance. Sales totaled $7.7 billion up more than 8% from the third quarter of last year. We had particularly strong growth across our defense businesses. Our defense portfolio delivered 14% top line growth when compared with the third quarter last year, 12% of which was organic. In addition, their operating earnings were up 14% driven by excellent operational performance across each of our three defense business groups. On the other hand, in the aerospace group, the scheduled five week furlough at Gulfstream caused a double digit reduction in sales somewhat offset by nearly $300 million in jet aviation sales.
Margins were better than I expected across the company, particularly on the defense side but frankly the aerospace group outperformed by expectations as well. This business has done an excellent job of cutting indirect costs and managing the business to preserve profitability even in light of the five week furlough. On a fully diluted basis, third quarter earnings per share from continuing operations were $1.48. Although down from last year's $1.59 it was a good performance given the five week shut down at Gulfstream.
Third quarter free cash flow after capital expenditures was $513 million which represents 89% of earnings from continuing operations. Cash was strong across the company including aerospace. I should note that this cash result also includes a cash payment of $250 million to our pension plan. I expect much strong cash generation in the fourth quarter and while we've set a tough hurdle for the fourth quarter cash I still believe it's possible to get close to a one-to-one conversion for the year.
Return on invested capital was 18.3%, 10 basis points above third quarter last year. Orders this quarter topped $7 billion, the strongest quarter so far this year with particularly strong activity in our combat systems and information systems and technology groups. At quarter end total backlog was $66 billion, down 2% from the second quarter but up nearly 10% from third quarter 2008.
I'd now like to spend some time discussing the performance and outlook for the rest of the year in each of our business segments starting with our three defense groups. Let's talk about combat systems first. Combat systems experienced double digit growth in both sales and earnings this quarter. Sales were nearly $2.4 billion, a 27% increase over the same period last year. Of that growth, 22% was organic. Organic growth was driven primarily by strength across combat's portfolio including increased volume on Stryker and Abrams, guns and weapons systems and several European vehicle programs. The remainder of the growth came from the addition of AxleTech to the group's portfolio.
The group's earnings totaled $316 million a nearly 21% year-over-year increase. Each of the four combat system businesses contributed to the earnings growth with particular strength at Armament Technical Products and European Land Systems. Margins were 13.5%, 100 basis points higher than the second quarter. Margin performance resulted from the group's strong sales volume and continuous improvement initiatives.
With the addition of more than $2 billion in orders, total backlog for combat systems increased slightly to $12.9 billion. Notable contract awards during the quarter included $647 million for production of another 352 Stryker vehicles, $301 million in Stryker contractor logistic support and $160 million for international ammunition. The Stryker orders in the quarter are intended to fill existing customer requirements. In addition to these orders the Army recently announced the conversion of one heavy brigade combat team to a Stryker brigade in the near term. The Army has also discussed addition conversions in the future. We believe the Army will continue to emphasize fielding what is available, affordable and technically feasible while maximizing the use of existing platforms.
International vehicle volume including armoured vehicle and tank sales to Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Canada will also begin to grow in 2010 with particular strength in 2011 and beyond. In each of these programs we are continuing to make progress. In Saudi Arabia we received a $7 million contract to continuing engineering work on the tank upgrades and we believe that it is likely we will secure the light armoured vehicle contract by year end.
In Iraq we continue to make progress on the sale of 140 Abrams tanks and associated logistics support. In Canada it appears likely that we will see an initial engineering contract on the labs by year end. 2010 will also offer several new international vehicle opportunities including competition to build several hundred UK FRES reconnaissance vehicles, Spanish 8X8 armoured vehicles and Canadian armoured patrol and combat vehicles.
Looking forward the group will have its strongest sales and earnings of the year in the fourth quarter due to large part to European Land Systems. For the year sales will be up about 21% over 2008 while margins for the year will be 12.5% to 12.7%.
Marine systems group has another could quarter marked by several milestones including deliver of DDG 108 and T-AKE 8, the launch of T-AKE 9, the start of construction on T-AKE 12 and last week's completion of builders trials for our first LCS. The group's third quarter sales were up 8% at $1.5 billion. Earnings which totaled $155 million were up almost 11% over last year's quarter. The earnings growth is particularly noteworthy as third quarter 2008 earnings were up 27% when compared to 2007.
Sales and earnings growth was driven by the continued ramp to two per year Virginia-class submarines at Electric Boat, higher repair volume and increased booking rates on several programs. The marine systems group achieved another 10% margin quarter driven by excellent performance at each of our yards but most particularly at NASSCO. The yard's performance is the result of hard work from the deck plates all the way to the senior leadership team. This stellar execution has also been enhanced in our investment in key facility improvements.
Marine's backlog totaled nearly $23.5 billion at the end of the third quarter, down slightly from the second quarter but up more than 100% when compared to last year. The Navy shipbuilding plan appears to be well supported in the 2010 budget process. Virginia-class submarines, the Trident SSBN replacement program and the third DDG 1000 have been fully funded thus fair in the process. T-AKE's 13 and 14 for which we already have advance procurement funding were fully supported in the authorization conference bill and in one of the two appropriations bills. Our customer has reiterated the importance of funding both ships this year.
Looking forward to the fourth quarter, sales will improve slightly but second half sales will not be quite as strong as the first half of 2009. For the year, sales should be up approximately 15% compared with last year. Given their results to date, I believe that marine systems will achieve 10% margins this year.
IS&T enjoyed a very solid third quarter. Sales and earnings were up in each of the businesses compared to last year. IS&T sales were $2.7 billion, up nearly 9% over third quarter 2008 and year-to-date. Organic growth was nearly 6% in the quarter and 6.5% year-to-date. The group's second quarter operating earnings were $296 million, up nearly 10% year-over-year. Operating margins at 10.8% were 10 basis points better year-over-year and sequentially. This performance exceeded my expectations and was in large part driven by significant margin improvement at our ISR business, Advanced Information Systems.
Backlog for the group increased to $10.6 billion because of $3.1 billion in order activity across the IS&T businesses including approximately $340 million in new cyber work and $1.2 billion in orders for IT services for a variety of customers. The groups' book-to-bill totaled 1.13 times for the third quarter and is a healthy 1.05 times for the first three quarters of 2009. IS&T also increased potential contract value by $650 million this quarter the majority of which will translates to backlog over time.
Several key IS&T developmental products performed well in testing in the third quarter including WIN-T, JTRS and the LCS combat system suite. WIN-T increment two which will provide tactical communications on the move and our JTRS hand held manpack small form factor HMS program which will provide significantly enhanced networking capability to the dismounted ground solider. Both performed extremely well in field testing moving both of these products closer to production. JTRS HMS also successfully added the solider radio wave form to our rifleman radio and manpack. A tactical network is at the center of the future development plants and our products are squarely on schedule and meeting all objectives.
We also added Axsys to our IS&T portfolio in September. We are very pleased with this acquisition which brings exceptional technologies, strong operating margin and a great opportunity to enhance product offerings in the fast growing tactical ISR space. Axsys will be nicely accretive in 2010. Fourth quarters sales should be up over third quarter but margins will decline. For the full year IS&T is on track to achieve 8% to 9% sales growth over last year with margins between 10.4% and 10.5%.
The aerospace group held its own again this quarter despite the five weeks Savannah furlough which significantly curtailed new aircraft volume. As a result, the group's sales totaled $1.1 billion down $295 million from the second quarter and $252 million from last year's third quarter. Earnings totaled $125 million obviously driven by fewer deliveries. The decrease in sales drove margin compression at Gulfstream through unabsorbed overhead. Modest losses on pre-owned sales and lower aircraft service margins also contributed to the reduction in overall margins.
We have four remaining pre-owned aircraft in inventory after selling three aircraft this quarter and taking in one. This reduced inventory by half to $62 million. We anticipate taking two additional aircraft before yearend. Without the impact of pre-owned, Gulfstream's margins were 15.5% in the quarter, not bad in this environment.
Although aircraft service volume steadied in the quarter, competitive pricing and the deferral of larger, more profitable maintenance jobs continued. I am cautiously optimistic on the outlook for our service business where current demand has returned our service centers to full work weeks. Jets' sales and earnings were essentially flat from last quarter although the business continues to make tangible progress in their completions operations with noted improvements in both schedule and cost performance.
Newly implemented management controls and production discipline are gaining traction. The business jet market has steadied and is seemingly on course towards recovery. Order activity and interest continue to improve with particularly strong demand in international markets for our large aircraft. Orders were stronger this quarter than last, again outpacing customer defaults. On an absolute basis, dollar denominated book-to-bill this quarter was a healthy 1.5 times. This does not include defaults that reflected continued weakness mostly in the midsized market.
Backlog remains a robust $19 billion. We are on pace to meet our 2009 production goals. Continued strength in order activity and my weekly review of the group's backlog also make me comfortable with our initial projection for low 70s large cabin production again in 2010. Large cabin spots are sold out next year. Large aircraft are also sold well through 2011 and in to 2012 for some models which provides upside to 2010 production estimates. Midsized production remains unsettled and may decline next year although order activity in this segment was more promising in the third quarter. That said, mid cabin activity represents a small portion of Gulfstream sales and earnings.
Our production development efforts met several exciting milestones last quarter. In late September we rolled out the new G650 aircraft under its own power. One week later we did the same for the G250. These two aircrafts are completing preparations for first flight and I expect them both to fly before yearend. We are encouraged by the success we've enjoyed thus far with each aircraft.
The group sales will grow approximately 16% from the third quarter to the fourth quarter and earnings should grow faster. For the full year, sales will be down approximately 4% while operating margins will be between 13.2% and 13.4%.
In summary, General Dynamics continues to perform very well and is positioned to have a good fourth quarter. For the year we anticipate sales growth of 11% and operating earnings margin slightly in excess of 11%. I expect earnings per share from continuing operations to be $615 to $620, an increase from my prior guidance. At this time I think it's more likely to come out at the lower end of that range and frankly, anything north of $620 at this time I think venturesome.
We're now in the midst of operations reviews for next year. I'm not prepared to provide 2010 guidance today as is our practice every year to do it this way. The defense environment remains extremely dynamic as the administration continues to contemplate our nation's strategy in Afghanistan, the 2010 appropriations and authorizations bills proceed through congress and the pentagon wraps up the quadrennial defense review in anticipation of the 2011 and future years defense program budget submission.
Thus far, GD's programs have received solid support in the 2010 budget process. While we await outcome of these reviews, it is clear to me that the fundamental need to fully equipped our forces has not changed. The world is an increasingly dangerous place and our armed force must have modern and capable systems in sufficient quantity. Secretary Gates continues to emphasize the importance of slow and steady growth in the defense budget with a focus on investing in 75% solution weapon systems that meet requirements across a broad spectrum of threats.
In this tough fiscal environment, the equipment that is most relevant to the war fighter will prevail. GD's products are at the center of today's fight and we continue to evolve our offerings to provide incremental capabilities that enhance war fighter effectiveness and make fiscal sense for tax payers. In short, I am confident our defense programs will emerge well supported from current budget considerations.
As I look to 2010, I can tell you that the defense businesses already have a very solid book of work next year and the recovering business jet market provides some upside opportunity for aerospace. Our diverse portfolio, strong balance sheet and commitment to earnings and cash generation position us well to provide relevant products for our customers while creating significant shareholder value. With that, I'll now ask Hugh Redd to touch on several key financial highlights.
L. Hugh Redd
There are a few items I'd like to draw to your attention in our third quarter results. First, in operating earnings as detailed on exhibit C to the earnings release you'll note corporate operating expense of $18 million for the quarter. This is net of a $5 million gain on an asset sale. I expect corporate operating earnings for the fourth quarter to be in the $22 million to $23 million range which is more consistent with prior quarters.
The second item is the other expense of $6 million in the quarter. This relates primarily to transaction costs associated with acquisition activity. As you are aware new accounting rules which took effect this year require acquisition costs to be expensed rather than included in the purchase price.
Next, net interest expense was up $29 million in the quarter and up $75 million for the first nine months. Interest expense was higher due to a $3.1 billion increase in net debt over the past year resulting from acquisitions and share repurchases. Interest expense was $40 million for the quarter and so far this year we are averaging about $39 million per quarter. Accordingly, I expect net interest expense for the full year to be closer to $160 million rather than the $150 million I had previously given you.
Finally, I would like to point out that the effective tax rate for the first nine months of the year is 31.3% which is in line with our expectation of a 31.5% rate. I continue to expect the full year rate to be within 10 basis point plus or minus of 31.5%. That completes my remarks and Amy I'll turn it back to you to begin the Q&A.
Amy Gilliland
As a quick reminder we ask participants to ask only one question so that everyone has an opportunity to participate. If you have additional questions please get back in the queue.
Question-and-Answer Session
(Operator Instructions) Your first question comes from Heidi Wood – Morgan Stanley.
Heidi Wood – Morgan Stanley
Jay, you talked about jet, can you give us an update? You talked about progress but can you tell us what kind of margins you're realizing now and where that is expected to go as you look ahead in to 2010? Maybe you can flush out thoroughly but the puts and takes for 2010?
Jay L. Johnson
I mentioned in my remarks and I've told you before that jet, we're working through some operational challenges at jet aviation. That's still an accurate statement but as I also said, the progress we're making is very tangible and we go over there once a quarter over to Basel to observe and learn. I would tell you that right now obviously they're single digit in their margins. I'm very confident that we'll take jet aviation to double digit margins, I am very confident of that. But, if you ask me to put a timeline on it, I'm not going to do that for you today. It's slow, it's steady.
As you know a lot of the work they do particularly in the completions, the wide body narrow body completions are huge projects that take a long time to work through. Patience in one sense is the order of the day but the sideline is very clear and the progress is very steady. The MRO business, the FBO business is beginning to see the trending back upward that I described a bit earlier so we have good downrange confidence there. Jet is a great addition to our aerospace portfolio and I'm very confident in going forward. The completions business will be very strong and I'm looking for great steady progress throughout the next year.
Heidi Wood – Morgan Stanley
Marine had some pretty nice margins again this quarter. Was there any onetime cumulative catch up adjustments in the quarter.
Jay L. Johnson
No, no, not at all. It was just good work all across all three yards.
Your next question comes from Douglas Harned – Sanford C. Bernstein.
Douglas Harned – Sanford C. Bernstein
On Gulfstream when you say that you are sold out on large cabin for 2010, what does that mean? Sold out on what level? I know you're looking for something in the low 70s but presumably that would be sold out at the higher rate you use to discuss before?
Jay L. Johnson
Let's just say that the backlog that I track every week with the leadership at Gulfstream, the state charts we go through, I've got a green box in every aircraft slot. I'll just stay with the production numbers that I've given you that say we're going to be in the low 70s next year with some potential upside and I'm very confident with that.
Douglas Harned – Sanford C. Bernstein
Then on the G250, give the weakness you're seeing in the midsized, how are you looking at that? Have you firmed up at all your outlook for what deliveries might be for that airplane?
Jay L. Johnson
It's a little bit soon for me to really worry about that and worry is not the right word but it's not in the center of my radar scope right now. I mean, we're taking orders for the 250, we've got first flight this year, it's a late '11 arrival entry in to service. So I'm confident if you look at the market that's out there and the movement we're starting to see even in the mid cabin [inaudible] prior owned sales and the white tails that are out there I think by the time we get to where orders are really important to the 250 we're going to be in the sweet spot.
Your next question comes from Robert Spingarn – Credit Suisse.
Robert Spingarn – Credit Suisse
Could you talk a little bit about the backlog shrinkage at marine? You talked about funding for T-AKE 13 and 14 and how you expect backlog to flow? And, perhaps a couple of comments on how the commercial business is tracking? Finally, do you see any vulnerabilities in the long term shipbuilding plan?
Jay L. Johnson
Rob, the marine backlog I'm sure you've probably heard Nick say this and probably heard me say it too, tends to come at you a little bit lumpy from time-to-time but it's a very robust backlog and we're quite comfortable with that. I would tell you that – let me just review it a little bit. The DDG 1000, the first one is in the build up at Bath, I think everyone knows that. We're working the contracts on the second two as we speak. The DDG 51, we've got three in completion up at Bath right now and we're looking according to the earlier statements by the Sec Def we're looking for a 2011 DG 51 there.
So Bath's got plenty on their plate in addition to the LCS down in [inaudible] where Bath is priming right now where we've got independents as I just mentioned in my remarks. Those completed builders' trials last week, they do Navy acceptance trials next month and then on we go. The second one is in the build down there, we're redoing the contract for the Navy right now on the next 10 and so it goes. But, that's a 55 ship program still by the Navy's requirements statements.
Electric Boat, you know we've accelerated and that's part of the margin discussion earlier, we accelerated the Virginia-class in to the first half of the year, perhaps a little bit more. That's why again, it's just timing and flow but we're very busy on Block 3 and Block 2 completions up at EB with our partner and we're also looking forward to the two a year starting in 2011. All that's on stride, we're doing the SSBN replacement initial engineering work right now here and with the UK so EB has got a full plate right now.
And, at NASSCO, specific to your question on the commercial side, you know we're building the T-AKEs, I mentioned that, 13 and 14 as I told you. We've got a long lead for both of them. The customer is very supportive of us getting full funding for both of them in this budget and we'll see what we get. But, either way we're in the build through 12 right now and we'll build 13 and 14 in order.
The product carriers, we have the five, two delivered I believe and three to go all coming along handsomely. The option for the next four has not been triggered as you know so we're still marketing that. There could be some impact if we don't get those four here in the next year, it would affect the loading certainly, the overhead at NASSCO. But, I have every confidence we're very good out there at matching volume with cost so we know how to manage that if we have to.
That said, I would tell you that there's considerable discussion and I think the QDR will probably be an elemental piece of that in terms of future work for NASSCO as it applies to one, the T-AKE line, a T-AKE or a T-AKE like ship for the Navy's downstream requirements and then we'll also see on the product carrier side, it's interesting, you know about the Jones Act, the Jones Act ships that are out there in large number, I think well over half of them are over 25 to 27 years old. So, that fleet is going to have to be freshed at some point here. We're talking timing, we're talking outcomes in the budget and all that I realize but I think the overall shipbuilding picture is a very positive one for us across all three yards.
Your next question comes from Richard Safran – Buckingham Research.
Richard Safran – Buckingham Research
Just a question on cash, a two parter, your share count came in just a bit higher than I thought and I just wanted to know if you could go over if there were any headwinds in the quarter? But, more importantly and bigger picture, can you discuss what your intentions are for cash for this year?
Jay L. Johnson
The share count, I think the best way for me to say it is rest assured that the share count is a fundamental part of our scan pattern. I keep using that but I use to be a fighter pilot so it relates to my head. The scan pattern for this company in terms of the way we allocate and deploy our capital. It always has been, always will be. So, we're mindful of the fact that the share count moves up slightly. But, if you look at us historically on share count absolute and fully diluted we really keep them in really tight bands.
The CFO and I look at that all of the time. That said, as it translates to this year, I will tell you that the priority for cash right now and I said it directly in my remarks, we expect a strong cash quarter in Q4 but you also heard me say that we're going to be challenged to get ourselves to where we like to be in terms of 100% conversion of earnings in to cash. So, quite frankly, until I get myself to the point where I can see that from looking down on it instead of looking up at that 100% line, I'm going to be very much concerned with maintaining operationally liquidity.
Liquidity is our strength, it gives us the agility we need to be opportunistic next year, it gives us the ability to access the commercial paper market which is as you know really important to us to get deals done fast, etc. So, in the hierarchy of things we look at here, liquidity is clearly at the top of that list. I mentioned the pension, we made our $250 million contribution in cash to the pension fund this past quarter. We look at the dividend for the board, we look at acquisitions of the non-transformational type right now I would say and we look at share repurchases.
You'll see us dealing with all of that at the right time. But again, to restate the obvious here for me, for us right now, it's a matter of maintaining liquidity and getting our nose above the 100% water line on earnings to cash conversion.
Your next question comes from Sam Pearlstein – Wells Fargo Securities, LLC.
Sam Pearlstein – Wells Fargo Securities, LLC
I actually wanted to follow up that question on the cash flow because it just seems to be as you get closer to 100% net income that would certainly be a little bit better than I was expecting. Can you kind of talk about some of the moving pieces there? Customer advances and deposits grew pretty nicely in Q3 versus the prior quarter and yet the backlog shrunk so I don't know if you can talk a little bit about that? Your cap ex expectations and are there any major projects on the horizons as to why we might see that grow in to next year?
Jay L. Johnson
Last thing first, I mean the cap ex will hold probably pretty flat for the rest of the year for sure. But, overall I think the biggest movement there to your question really goes right back to aerospace. That's been the cash issue in large measure for this year with the market down turn so as the market comes back we would expect to see more cash coming out of aerospace and quite frankly we're looking forward to it. Recall also that we've got in this quarter now, fourth quarter, I mentioned we're going to fly the 650 for the first time and when we do the first 50 or so customers will be asked to provide another payment so that will feed in to the cash plan nicely as well.
Sam Pearlstein – Wells Fargo Securities, LLC
If I can just follow up in a separate sector within combat systems, can you size when you talked about some opportunities for additional Stryker brigade combat teams, can you just size what the potential is there?
Jay L. Johnson
I don't think so Sam. I mean, it's premature to do that, we've got the seven brigades now, they just announced the 8th. We've read in the press like you probably have that there may be more but that's really the Army's decision to make and when they do we'll react accordingly. But clearly, the Stryker piece is a core element of combat going forward. In addition to the number of vehicles remember the other part of that which is the support, the combat logistics support that goes with that and also the reset for the vehicles that have been heavily used in combat, the recapitalization of that existing force and the modernization there too. There's a lot going on in the Stryker world as there is in Abrams but specific to Stryker, I'll stay with that.
Your next question comes from Noah Poponak – Goldman Sachs.
Noah Poponak – Goldman Sachs
I wanted to ask you about Gulfstream margins. In your prepared remarks it sounds like you were saying you were actually pretty pleasantly surprised with where the quarter came in but it look like you're lowering your expectation for the full year. Can you talk about why that is? Is it jet coming along slower or what's going on there?
Jay L. Johnson
I mean I could have left it where it is and have been close. But, we're in the same ballpark but we may have a little bit of jet in there but I expect Gulfstream to be ever stronger quarter-by-quarter going forward.
Your next question comes from Howard Rubel – Jefferies & Co.
Howard Rubel – Jefferies & Co.
Jay, could you add a little more color to the IT business? I know you talked about some of the particular items but it looks as if you've been able to grow the business a little faster than the market. Is there something in there that really stands out?
Jay L. Johnson
Howard, I think the way that I would answer that is it is really pretty diverse across the portfolio. We've talked about kind of the fast currents in there with the tactical comms and I mentioned some of that in my opening so tactical comms are playing large in there. We've got tactical ISR and that was very strong for us this last quarter as I singled out AIS in terms of their margin improvement and the addition of Axsys to that portfolio. We've got a lot of IT services opportunity if you will in health IT and fed civ and don't forget probably the one that crosses all of the IS&T portfolio that is big and ever bigger going forward is cyber. It really is Howard very well diversified across the whole IS&T portfolio.
Your next question comes from Cai von Rumohr – Cowen & Company.
Cai von Rumohr – Cowen & Company
Jay, you talked about gross book-to-bill at 1.5, the net book-to-bill was about .6, could you split that for us between the large biz jets and the midsized and give us some color on the strength in demand by geographies outside of the US?
Jay L. Johnson
The book-to-bill Cai, I'll put it this way we have great – the order book exceeded the terminations and defaults book again. So it's moving in the right direction on both ends of that equation. We're not out of the default business quite obviously yet but we're coming along. As far as the backlog and how that impacts, what we saw on the termination side if you will, the default termination side is really a mix honestly. It's some in the large side but it's weighted more heavily I would say to what you would expect and that's the softness in the mid cabin market.
As to kind of a demographic if you will of the backlog itself, it really is staying pretty consistent here with perhaps if it's trending at all it's trending more to the international side. I don't have a pie chart in front of me but I think it's got to be able maybe less say 40% US/Canada kind of North America and 60% rest of world with a significant piece of that in the Asia Pacific and in Europe with South America picking up as well so it's really diverse by geography. As I said before, it remains diverse by owner type if you will in that fully a third are individuals and fully a third of the backlog, actually a little more than a third are private companies. That's kind of the lay down.
Your next question comes from Myles Walton – Oppenheimer & Co.
Myles Walton – Oppenheimer & Co.
Jay, one of the steady contributors to expanding segment margins the last few years has been marine and you're fulfilling the promise of getting to that 10% bogie. What's the new bogie or are we kind of hitting ourselves on the 10% line? I guess, what are the contributors to that? Is it more the second sub coming in to full production, is it going to swing on repair? If you can just give some color around that and what targets you're passing along to the organizations.
Jay L. Johnson
It's volume, it's sales and it's performance, it's continuous improvement so I won't give you a number because I don't have a number but around here status quo is never good enough. So, today's 10% we look to improve. Continuous improvement I've told you before it's in our DNA here so we will never stop trying to improve the margins or the performance in any of our businesses but specific to marine that's true for sure.
You mentioned repair and I mentioned it briefly in my remarks. The repair work is a significant book of business an important book of business within the marine systems group. We've talked on earlier occasions about NASSCO and the repair work that's out there. NASSCO is actually prime on a number of different ship classes that we may or may not have built for repair out in the San Diego area and they're in work right now on getting more of that work.
They're increasing the fleet size in the San Diego area I think by 30% over the next four to five years and the numbers of ships go from 40 something to 60 something. So, as the fleet kind of realigns itself or the fleets realign themselves so repair work there is very significant as it is at Electric Boat and Bath Iron Works. The repair book is very important to us.
Your next question comes from Joseph Nadol – J. P. Morgan.
Joseph Nadol – J. P. Morgan
I just wanted to follow up again on the cash deployment and specifically the share repurchase. You didn't buy back any stock this quarter and obviously we're well down year-on-year from where we were a year ago. I'm wondering I guess just specific thoughts on that and some color on how as a company you're approaching this in terms of I guess board interaction and I'm thinking of course Nick specifically versus management decisions on share repurchases. What's the interaction there and how are you thinking about, you've made a lot of acquisitions the last 12 to 18 months, how are you thinking about next year?
Jay L. Johnson
Look Joe, as is our practice here, and if you look over your shoulder at us for the last, I don't care six years maybe, just pick a time, you'll see that we have a very active year with acquisitions and then we follow it with kind of, my words here, kind of a year of adjusting and settling and that's kind of the rhythm that we've gotten ourselves in to. I'm comfortable with that rhythm right now. I think I mentioned earlier that we've got cash at a point that is not where we like to be in that I don't see a clear sight line to exceeding 100% conversion earnings to cash for the year. Until I do, the number one thing on our list here is going to be operational liquidity.
But, make no mistake share repurchase is always a part of our scan pattern as is the dividend, as is the acquisition piece, the opportunistic acquisitions and the pension to which we applied $250 million this quarter. All of those things are looked at all the time here. I would also mention that in terms of the share count and the dilution and all that, it's really been in very tight bands here if you look at us historically year-over-year. But, right now to give us the agility we need and to allow me to be opportunistic looking forward next year I need to bring the cash level up above 100% and that's what this is all about.
Your next question comes from Robert Stallard – Macquarie Research Equities.
Robert Stallard – Macquarie Research Equities
Jay, a quick question on the combat systems, you mentioned some of the export opportunities you see out there for CS. If any of these get pushed to the right would it be fair to suggest that growth in combat systems next year could slow versus what you are seeing this year?
Jay L. Johnson
I don't see it right now Rob honestly. Frankly, if some of the internationals move to the right, my view is they're going to move in to 2010 not out of 2010. But anyway, I think for now I'm pretty comfortable with the flow if you will of the international programs. Remember, the Canadian program is on a fast track by their choice.
We've got a big year in the United Kingdom with the FRES contract that they're trying to get nailed down here in the next few months and we've got Saudi Arabia, Iraq, we've got all of our FMS and indigenous international work targeted really, as I think I mentioned in my remarks, kind of more to a 2011/2012 timeline but 2010 should be teeing us up nicely. I don't see it as a downer for growth if you will in combat systems. I'll stand by what I said earlier, that portfolio is a slow, slow, steady powerful growth business for General Dynamics.
Your next question comes from Troy Lahr – Stifel Nicolaus & Company, Inc.
Troy Lahr – Stifel Nicolaus & Company, Inc.
I'm wondering if you can just give us an update on LCS, I think you finished builder sea trials, kind of how did that go and what's some of the feedback you're getting from the customer?
Jay L. Johnson
We did complete builder sea trials, builders' trials last week. My somewhat subjective answer to your question would be is it performed beautifully. It's fast, it's sleek, it's seaworthy, it's got great capability and we are very impressed with my own ship if you don't mind me saying that. So, okay, I think the customer was satisfied at that point. Obviously they were because we're now moving in to acceptance trials in serv by another name. The acceptance trials which start, don't hold me to this, but it's mid November plus or minus a little so that's all on track and then once that completes we'll turn it over to the customer and be on our way with the next one that's already in the build down there. Overall, it's a wonderful platform of great capability and we look forward to providing lots of them to our customer.
Your next question comes from David Strauss – UBS.
David Strauss – UBS
Jay or Hugh, could you just touch on pension going forward. Obviously the $250 million contribution this quarter but I think at the end of last year you were close to $3 billion under funded. Just what you're looking at from a contribution standpoint given PPA and CAS harmonization?
Jay L. Johnson
Right now David what we're looking at, we gave the $250 this year, we're looking at I think just a little north of that next year, $260ish. Then, after that it gets up around the $500 something for probably four or five years. That's present conditions and that's not really understanding the final lay down on CAS/PPA harmonization but that's kind of the sight picture we have today. I think it's important to say though that given what I just described we do not believe that that will impede our ability to affectively allocate and deploy our capital to do the things we need to do to grow this company going forward.
Your next question comes from Ronald Epstein – Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
Ronald Epstein – Bank of America Merrill Lynch
Just a broader 200,000 foot question for you, in your prepared remarks you mentioned about Secretary Gates talking about having kind of steady low single digit budget growth going forward for the defense budget. Given the fiscal backdrop and all the pressures, roughly 13% of GDP deficit this year, potentially deficits as you go out five or six years that are still north of 5%, is that realistic?
Jay L. Johnson
Well, I think the way that I'd answer that Ron is I just look in the world in which we're living right now. It gets back to the question of how much risk are we willing to tolerate inside that world. The risk management piece I think is different than it ever has been before. But, for us again, as the defense budget flattens which essentially is what is happening here, we still believe what I said in my remarks. If you have programs and systems and things that are relevant to the war fighter your programs and systems and things will prevail in large measure. So, we felt very good going in to all of this, we feel confident that we'll be well supported coming out.
Amy Gilliland
I think that wraps up the time we have this morning. I'd like to thank everyone for joining the call and if you do have additional questions, I can be reached at 703-876-3748. Have a great day.

I added +Christopher Moss to my circles today. He is an artist who I have never personally met. If this had been a facebook friend request I almost certainly wouldn't have added him. I think of my facebook network as private space. It is a place I like to keep up with my friends and see what my family is up to and I find is ill suited to more public discourse (they are dirt bag control freaks and I don't want to play in their sand box). And despite all the fuss about real names, that is not how I have been thinking of G+.
Like Twitter I think of the G+ as more public space like a blog or Tumbler. I am not looking "to friend," I am interested in "following;" finding people who are sharing on subjects I am interested in. If, when I checked Christopher's feed (which I do when ever anyone adds me to their circles), I had found that the only subject he posted on was a stream of links to, and images of, his own artwork I would not have added him.
Just like on Twitter, I am interested in following strangers. But also like Twitter I am not interested in someone else's ham-fisted attempts at self promotion. Authors who tweet nothing but announcements of book readings and new editions suck. Authors like +David Brin who share whatever is that happens to be on their mind are great. Same goes for artists.
Christopher has some examples of his art up on his profile page, which is fine, but his feed, while pretty short (like most everyone else's on G+), is not solely dedicated to the topic of his own art. Judging by what's there, he seems interested in sharing what he is interested in, not shilling what he's making.
Finally, I was especially impressed when I read his profile introduction. He writes:
"If I don't actually know you but I've added you it is probably because we do have other artist and/or art world and/or online friends in common and we simply haven't met yet. I mean you no harm, I've come in peace."
"Also, I use that other social network a lot more than this one, though this one is shaping up to be something totally different from the lookbooks."
"Regarding that, I'm adding most of the suggested people google offers me, taking a different tack than I've employed on other social media sites, this place seems like a good one to find out about all of you. Somehow facebook seems limiting and g+ feels freeing. I think it has something to do with the way each individual network became known to users, facebook was shared between intimate contacts (at least by me) and the g+ universe seems more useful if we all give up those notions of intimacy. That's how I see it now. 11.8.2011"
This is a great introduction and nicely sums up something simular I have been feeling sinse joining G+, that this site promises to be something different. Unlike Christopher I haven't been accepting every suggestion google makes, but I have been sniffing out everyone who approaches me and pursuing the circles of people I find interesting for other interesting people to add.
Something G+ lacks is the Twitter tradition of Follow Fridays, which is great because Follow Fridays has degenerated into an almost meaningless series of shout outs. But for those of you with boring feeds, who are wondering if there is anything going on here, allow me to introduce a few people who have very active and fun feeds. Adding +Scott Beale +Adam Jackson +Xeni Jardin and +Tim Carmody will immediately give you plenty of interesting things to look through next time you check in.
I would also suggest adding +Sarah Pavis +Guan Yang +Jorge Spinoza +Robin Sloan +Tim McCool +Sylvia S +Carolina A. Miranda +Marius Watz +Joanne McNeil and +darien train - these folks don't post quite as much, but I always find them worth checking in on.
Some of these people I know from Twitter, others from Google Reader, Darien and I met outside of a boom closet we both mistook for a men's room, Not one of them "friended" me on Facebook. If there are any people you have been enjoying following here please announce them so the rest of us can find them.

Previewing new books in 2013, via The Millions
Once again, The Millions, an online literary magazine, has brightened up early January with a giant preview of books due to be published this year. Millions contributors are offering thumbnail previews of 79 books due out this year.
Caveat lector: Despite The Millions' cheeky claim that this lovely list "is the only 2013 book preview you will ever need," it consists mostly of quality literary fiction, with only a few nonfiction and genre writing titles included. So, for example, you won't see anything about new books this year from Ian Tregillia, Charlaine Harris and Elizabeth Bear. »Read Full Blog Post(5)

The Clock Stops: FOX Cancels '24'
Source: The Hollywood Reporter
After thwarting nuclear and biological threats, attempts on his daughters life and multiple Presidential assassinations, Jack Bauer is finally headed into retirement. Due to annual production costs raises, sinking ratings and "creative fatigue" experienced by many of its principles, FOX has officially announced that it will end its long-running, real-time action drama 24 in May.
This season, the program's 8th, has long been rumored to be its last, but executive producer Howard Gordon and exec-producer/star Kiefer Sutherland had been hinting to a possible 9th mission since this January's season premiere, as well as a baffling move to NBC (that the network passed on) which was reported last month.
Still, fans of Bauer and the operations of CTU may be in luck as Gordon has told The Hollywood Reporter that "There are other possible iterations of Jack Bauer and his world", including a developing theatrical film that takes Bauer to Europe.
In retrospect, Gordon says: "I'd like it to be remembered as a revolutionary concept. I hope the second thing is that we loved this show so much and never did anything less than our best and I hope we delivered to our fans like we feel we did to ourselves."
Most fans will be saddened by the ending of the series and will be following news on the proposed feature feverishly, but in the meantime, they can look forward to a strong finish coupled with the current New York-based storyline taking a dark and creatively risky turn for the final episodes, says Gordon.

Total Rx up 183 (15%). 1,406 vs 1,223 last week. New Rx are up 127 (11%), 1,258 vs 1,131 last week. Unique writer count is up 69 (10%), 782 vs 713 last week. LOvaza total RX are down 3,886 (-4%), 94,074 vs. 97,960 last week. New Rx are down 1,299 (-4%), 34,052 vs 35,351. Unique writer count is down 1,264 (-3%), 43,266 vs 44,530 last week.
Vascepa script numbers appear very weak but the most troubling thing I see with the script numbers are the Lovaza scripts. Typically the overall market expands with the addition of a new product and the addition of more sales reps selling and promoting a class of drugs in a particular market. Lovaza total scripts (-4%) as well as new scripts (-4%) appears to show the overall Omega3 market is actually shrinking rather than growing. This is not good at all. There is a net negative script count in the omega3 script numbers as a whole.
Sentiment: Hold
Lovaza scripts has varied between 90-100k, this is not a downtrend of 4000 scripts per week, don't do conclusions on single data-points.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
sharonconl exactly, and for the same reason, we should not expect to much of the AMRN weeklies, as it has an ever smaller base and is bound to fluctuate even more.
Could the decrease in the Omega3 market still be a hangover from the Naicin results?
This is a new drug it will take about 8 months to really show impact.I also think a 52 week low here is crazy with a fda approved drug it was a lot higher stock price before any drug...kinda rigged....i see a complete reversal after big monies milk it to a certain point.
usagary, not really unusual to be at 52 week low with approved drug. See PATH, whose Zecurity was approved. In the $3s and stock was as high as $7 I believe pre approval. WHy? As of now ,PATH is going it alone, looking for a buyer of the company or a big partner. Sound familiar?
AMRN stock down 6 trading days in a row. Unbelievable!
Lovaza RX's are going down nicely! They will all soon steer towards Vascepa!

Steve Kimbrell has been announced as Kids Incorporated Volunteer of the Month for October.
Kimbrell, owner of Amarillo Vacuum, has been a Kids Inc. volunteer for more than 10 years, a press release said. He serves as the girls Roundup Coordinator at Ridgecrest Elementary School and is the fourth-grade girls fall volleyball coach.
Kimbrell also has coached fall soccer, soft soccer, indoor soccer, girls basketball, track, volleyball, tee ball and USSSA softball.

I had a parent tell me that I should realize that not all mission work is in the church, and she confirmed for me that I was fulfilling my calling.''

You may not be of African descent (at least not obviously) and your dick isn't likely thirteen inches long at rest, but if you've fantasized about being such a sexually-superior man, Blacked aims to show you what it's like to sling your hefty, healthy black trouser-snake in the direction of glistening wet pussies belonging to porn's hottest white girls both established and brand new. If you haven't had such fantasies and just want to watch super-hot girls fuck super-hung guys in super-stunning 1080p HD movies shot with a sophisticated flair then, don't worry, Blacked is for you too!
Presenting itself as the absolute pinnacle of masculine and all-male pornography, Men.com brings together nine websites with different approaches to gay sex. From the incredible chiseled figures of Gods of Men to The Gay Office's suit-and-tie lunchtime hookups to the student-stuffing of Big Dicks at School, Men.com offers a High Definition look at every sort of homosexual hardcore and does it in great style with daily updates and nine exclusive outlets for your erotic enthusiasm.
Daughter of legendary pornographers Suze Randall and Humphry Knipe, Holly Randall couldn't avoid her calling for long, entering the family business as a highly trained and obviously skilled photographer. Her glamorous style and cool demeanor scores her bookings with today's top nude, erotic, and hardcore models as she shoots them beneath palm trees in a topical paradise, relaxing in a bubble bath, fondling a girlfriend's lingerie-clad figure, or any number of other saucy scenarios on display at Randall's official The Women of Holly Randall website. That's a mouthful, yeah, but 'Holly Randall' (as we'll often refer to the site) not only hosts plenty of impressive glamour porn, it does so in 1080p HD, 5000px photo frames, and in a constant flurry of finely crafted erotic updates, to boot!
They say good things come in small packages. If they were talking about women then that's certainly true. (No offense, big and tall ladies!) Take ATK Petites, for example. A long-standing showcase of physically diminutive porno talent, this softcore/hardcore hybrid sees striptease, bathing, lesbian and hetero sex, and a ton of masturbation taking place, captured in 1080p HD video and 3000px photos, and starring the incredibly comely likes of Tiffany Watson, Foxy Roxy, Karlee Grey, and Rachel James in guaranteed exclusive updates. ATK Petites and its small but sexy starlets will win you over in a heartbeat.
Filling the mouth of a foxy babe usually makes for a good time and a fond memory, but being able to fill her mouth so fully that you feel her tonsils brush over your head, her tongue stretching out like a red carpet for your shaft, that's when you know she's been Throated. While this My XXX Pass website won't teleport you to deepthroat island for the ultimate vacation, it does give you a virtual version of the same. With videos looking great in crisp, clear 1080p HD streams and downloads, and with the best and boldest cocksuckers in porn doing their best to create a memorable oral adventure, Throated is a wild take on one of the world's favorite sexual acts.
Long, long ago Sappho penned lyrical verse that celebrated (or at least fondly recognized) the physical, emotional, and psychological love between women. No, not like BFFs. And, no, not like the Sex & The City crew. I'm talking lesbians and there's almost no better place on the 'net to witness the sexual antics of fine-as-fuck European pearl-divers than at Sapphic Erotica, home to HD videos, twice-weekly updates, and more sexy spelunking babes than you can shake a stick, your stick at.
Come one, come all and indulge your fondness for finely honed naked female physiques, scorching hot sexual chemistry, explosive orgasms both male and female, and a roster of A, B, C, and D-list talents that'd give even the most seasoned porno lover cause to pause and soak in the sights. The Pornstar Network gathers 49 sites, each one different than the last, into one giant archive teeming with incredible feats of human sexuality, many of them rendered in brilliant High Definition videos. Now discounted to a very affordable price and pressing forward with a strong update schedule, The Pornstar Network appears to be answering its critics in the best possible way: with action!
Eager to get your filthy little paws on some of Europe's most intense hardcore porn? Take a gander at the work of Denys Defrancesco and Hands On Hardcore, a site presenting three new ultra-explicit encounters every week. Ranging from tender couple sex to aggressive roughhousing and group activity, Hands On Hardcore delivers its wares in 1080p HD video frames as impressive as its 2000px videos. The only thing missing from Hands On Hardcore, really, is you!

Serious Sam 3: BFE is a glorious throwback to the golden age of first-person shooters where men were men, cover was for amateurs and pulling the trigger made things go boom. Serving as a prequel to the original indie sensation, Serious Sam: The First Encounter, Serious Sam 3 takes place during the Earth's final struggle against Mental's invading legions of beasts and mercenaries. Set against the collapsing temples of an ancient civilization and the crumbling cities of 22nd century Egypt, Serious Sam 3 is an exhilarating fusion of classic twitch shooters and modern gameplay features.
Some weird decisions gameplay wise after the near perfect first and second encounter.
Mostly disappointing bosses, over use of hitscan enemies at some point, infinite ammo crates, serious lost its double ammo, overall difficulties seem to all have the same amount of enemies but the worst is definitely the "explosives only" enemies.
Still a great game, but a step down compared to the previous games.
From a technical stand-point the game is really gorgeous.
Good oldschool game! Some levels are too tight and have not so many enemies, but the game is damn awesome! Must Have if you liked doom/quake/duke nukem/serious sam :)
Boom. Awesome.
the eye effect very o_o?
Serious sam 3
I like the story of this game
But its a lot too bleedy (haves too much blood)
The engine is evolving and evolving a lot.
Now the textures are high quality and more realistic
Good thing that you can play in LAN with it
But with Internet would be more enjoyable
I like it,so you got my review in here
A great FPS game with the best engine ever made. That's a pity for textures that are not at the same level of models and maps. The gameplay oldstyle-based tend to bore on a long shift but the game in general is the best FPS example actually on the market. The character is very well designed and charismatic; old enemies and weapons are perfectly realoaded! The challenge become serious on level "hard" and impossible on level "serious". It's an 8,5/10 for me.
I like it very much
The campaing is awesome
Destruction,gameplay its amaizing
10/10 from me
The game dose have some fun but, it dosent feel like a REAL SS game
Shows just how bad today's awful consolfied FPS games really are. It's tough, beautiful, exciting, long and replayable. Filled with secrets, humour, satisfying guns and hoards of enemies. Exactly the opposite of all the 'modern' FPS games.
