Reviews for the Dell Inspiron 15R-1847MRB
Source: PC Mag
The Dell Inspiron 15R-1847MRB is a good starter desktop replacement laptop for dabbling in video and photo editing, as well as taking in the latest Blu-ray flicks. It meets the performance criteria for all tasks except for 3D gaming and in battery life. Alternatively, you'll get much battery life and similar speeds from the Acer Aspire AS5820T-5951 or the Sony VAIO VPC-EB33FM/BJ, our Editors' Choice in the budget laptop category. If you are into 3D gaming, check out the HP Pavilion dv7-4283cl or Dell XPS 15, our Editors' Choice in the desktop replacement category.

The Dell Inspiron 15R-5521 was built to be cost and energy efficient. Dell offers this model in a few different configurations, ranging from a Core i3-3217U to Core i5-3317U for better performance. In terms of graphics, models are equipped with Intel's integrated graphics up to the powerful AMD Radeon HD 8730M. Regardless of your configuration, it is a cheap laptop. The sturdy case is mainly made from plastics and the 1366X768 display is satisfactory. With 2.2 kg, the laptop is surprisingly light for a 15 inch laptop and its size seems compact and space saving. A fun feature is that the laptop is optionally available in pink, red, silver or blue.
Battery life is a strength, which is improved by energy-saving ULV processors. It can easily last for 6 hours during web browsing and light tasks. With Wi-Fi off, it could run a full day of light use on a single charge. The ports are little clustered around the edges, which can lead to unwanted disconnections during use – but this should not be an issue for those who are on the go. Although the Dell is not designed as desktop replacement, it can be comfortably used as such. To summarize, Dell's Inspiron 15R-5521 delivers a great, customizalbe performance and a sturdy build for an affordable price.
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) HD Graphics: Onboard graphics card that is built in the new Arrandale CPUs (Core i3 / i5 / i7 Dual Cores). Depending on the model and Turbo Boost, the GMA HD is clocked between 166 and 766 MHz.
Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
380M: The Core i3-380M is a fast clocked Core i3. The TurboBoost, AES, VTd, and Trusted Execution functions are deactivated in the i3-series. Therefore, it always clocks with max. 2.53 GHz (of course Speedstep is included). Thanks to Hyperthreading, 4 threads can be processed simultaneously. An integrated graphics card (GMA HD) and a DDR3 memory controller are also included in the package.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
15.6": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks. 15.4 inch display with 16:10 are the standard for notebook displays. However nowadays, more and more 16:9 displays with 15.6 inch appear. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.7 kg: This notebook is lighter than the average of all notebooks. It is too heavy for sub-notebooks. 14 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
Dell: Dell Inc. is a multinational technology corporation that develops, manufactures, sells, and supports personal computers and other computer-related products. Based in Texas, Dell employs more than 82,700 people worldwide (2009). In 2006, Dell purchased the computer hardware manufacturer Alienware. In most countries, the laptops are directly sold to consumers by Dell and each notebook custom-assembled according to a selection of options. Market share regarding sales of personal computers in 2007 (market research IDC): HP 18.9 %, Dell 16.4 %, Acer 9.9 %, Lenovo 7.5 %, Apple 5.7 %

SENIOR Labour MP Caroline Flint stresses Reading is still a "great place to live" - despite the town narrowly missing out on city status.
The shadow secretary of state for energy and climate change was sympathetic when she visited Reading yesterday to push for measures to prevent energy companies exploiting pensioners.
The Don Valley MP's own constituency covers parts of Doncaster - another leading favourite in the race for the coveted status which was awarded to Chelmsford in Essex, Perth in Scotland and St Asaph in Wales.
Ms Flint who has fond memories of visiting Reading as a child said: "Sadly only a certain amount of places can get picked.
"A lot of effort goes into the campaigns and one of the good things is that it makes people think about the place they live in and what makes them proud of it. I hope people in Reading do not get too down at heart but take some pride in the debates that have gone on over the last few months about what makes it a great place to live."

Sport Tourers; Where Art Thou?
I've come to the rather inescapable conclusion that sport touring motorcycles are among the rarest forms of transportation on Earth.
No matter where I go - unless it's to a bike rally - they are invisible. Nowhere to be found. On a motorcycle trip recently on my FRJ1300 covering about 1,400 miles I spotted ...
The rest were old beat standards, dirt bikes, Gold Wings and, of course, Harleys.
Thousands and thousands and thousands of Harleys. :twitch
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
But it really brought home to me once again, after riding for so many years, that the sport tourer is an odd bird that defies convention and appears not to appeal to very many people, which I find puzzling. To me, they're bikes that do so many things well (as long as it's on pavement).
What's your theory as to why sport tourers don't sell very well?
I believe it is the fact that there are inherent compromises that neither the "sport" group nor the "tour" group are really prepared to accept.
Many that are looking for the sport attributes complain that the sport tourers are too heavy and don't have a sophisticated enough suspension, yada, yada, bitch, moan, ad naseum. (they want a GSXR-1000 that does not make them sore in the morning).
Many of the touring folks want true recliner like seating position and the wind protection of a civic with its windows rolled halfway down, telephone, stereo, coffee maker, active radar, (most car-like ride possible). If Lazy-Boy actually made the motorcycle seat you might be able to sell an FJR to this group.
Just look at the ridiculous farce the FJR 1400 thread turned into.
The other thing is that the majority of riders don't actually ride that far. Just look at how many bikes on this "adventure" forum are sold inteh flea market with < than 10k miles.
I just bought a used Bandit 1250 that I have put a couple of "touring" accessories on. Mostly because I could not afford the FJR that I wanted.
My sportbike friends call it a fat, slow pig and my touring friends want to know how I can stand having my knees bent that far for more than an hour...yada yada...:snore
But I can go out and hang with/have a good time with either group.
Me and the Bandit are going to go cover ~1200 miles on the long 4th of July weekend. :D
Neither fish nor fowl: not as sporting as a true sports bike (to heavy) not as comfortable as a true touring bike (less wife appeal). Then again, "adventure" bikes are rarely the best at any one thing either and they seem to be doing well. My guess would be that has more to do with image and the lack of available standards tho. Cruisers and crotch-rockets have become entry bikes for many. The folks I know on sport tourers tend to have many miles/bikes under there belt. That by definition tends to be a smaller group.
The Bandit's a terrific sport tourer and don't let anybody tell you differently. :D
I have definitely noticed the same absence of sport-touring bikes, especially when I went on a cross-country trip.
There are two questions here:
1) Are there really that many fewer sport-touring bikes?
2) If there aren't really that many sport-touring bikes, where are they hidden?
For #1, the 'real' answer could be found in the number of bikes sold and registered. I dunno, but I'm sure those figures are out there.
I can easily see that the number of sport-touring bikes might seem under represented by the natural inclination for sport-touring riders to be on "b-roads", which are numerous and out of the way.
I have a Kawi Concours 14 (GTR 1400), with 32K miles on it. I avoid highways and actively seek out fire-roads. I am proud of myself when I find roads where I don't see anybody.
I've had a few sport tourers, I found them boring to ride unless you go fast; like sport bikes on the street, yawn. If I want to rip, I'll get on the grid. American roads/laws are not really compatible with the way I like to ride if I'm on a sport touring bike. My last one was a BMW R1200ST ... great bike.
1. Cost (most don't have that much free $$ to spend on a toy)
2. Time (most don't have the time to go touring)
3. Style (most ride what their buddies ride, and that means HDs or other cruisers)
4. Monofunction (other than sport touring, sport tourers aren't really very good at much else)
Don't most people use their "ADV" bikes more as sport tourers? Whether they use them that way or not, I suspect they are what most people who used to buy Sport Tourers are buying these days.
personally, I think your definition of sport tourers is already pretty wide if it encompasses RT's. I don't mean to open a can of worms, but a sport tourer should have a bit better performance than what the RT offers... anyway, that's just personal I guess.
I ride a sprint, and so far, it is just about the best bike in all aspects that I've ever owned. Nonetheless, the sprint GT that my nearest triumph dealer has on the floor, has been there for a very long time, and he just can't seem to give it away... a pity really. One ride on that triple and you're sold.
I guess the squids want higher HP numbers, and the tourers want more amenities..
They are for people in the middle of their riding career. Done with sport or dirt, not yet ready for a Goldwing or Geezer Gide.
They also are not sold to lifestyle types - a squid wants a sportbike and a pirate wants a chopper, bobber, or bagger. Nobody really wants a sport-tourer - they buy them because they work. In a land where bikes are toys, that is a pretty small group.
That said, no-one in europe would regard an RT as a sports-tourer; that's firmly in tourer territory, probably because we don't associated Harley with 'touring'. All relative I guess.
Oh, some really good, thoughtful answers here ... :lurk
I guess I consider the RT a sport tourer because it has removable hard bags, isn't as large as the LT or a Wing and handles very well with a decent motor.
ADV bikes have also taken over a displacement category that used to have sport tourers.
Not long ago there were 800 VFRs, Sprint 855-955-1050, Duc ST2/3/4, Futura, etc.
Now we have Tiger 800/1050, F800GS, Wee Strom, duc went the Multistrada route, the VFR is a big $$ boat, Sprint gained 100lbs to be a GT then was discontinued for a 1200 shaft drive version.
The Kawasaki Ninja 1000 is the one of the few left on the light and sporty side of the S-T continuum. F800ST as well, though I don't like it. :lol3
Peeps like me just buy middleweights and look to the aftermarket for the 'touring' parts.
The last numbers I saw on sport tourer sales was 6% of the U.S. motorcycle market, with cruisers constituting 51 %. IIRC, sport bike sales were under 10%.
I have noticed that in Europe, they are much more popular than in Canada / U.S.
My theory on why sport tourers aren't more popular is that most riders don't like the riding position, and most riders don't want to go super fast. And, as Grainbelt mentions, they're not lifestyle bikes.

Transport Phenomena, Fluid Mechanics and Computational Simulations...
research focuses on topics of biological and clinic/medical interest,
innovative manufacturing processes (including problems in micro- &
nano-technology and energy) and on the study of phenomena that have
environmental components.
The common theme is the study of transport phenomena and fluid mechanics, using computational simulation tools. We develop computer models that allow us to explore physical mechanisms not easily accessible via other means.
Our work ranges from cilia microfluidics to nanoscale droplet dynamics; we currently work on cerebral and vascular disease, microfluidics, nanotechnology and medical devices.

Illegal immigrant deportation of young people to stop, Obama announces
An NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll last month found Obama leading Romney among Hispanic voters 61 percent to 27 percent. But his administration's deportation policies have come under fire, and Latino leaders have raised the subject in private meetings with the president. In 2011, Immigration and Customs Enforcement deported a record 396,906 people and is expected to deport about 400,000 this year.
A December poll by the Pew Hispanic Center showed that 59 percent of Latinos disapproved of the president's handling of deportations.
The changes come a year after the administration announced plans to focus on deporting serious criminals, immigrants who pose threats to public safety and national security, and serious immigration law violators.
One of the officials said the latest policy change is just another step in the administration's evolving approach to immigration.
Under the plan, immigrants whose deportation cases are pending in immigration court will have to prove their eligibility for a reprieve to ICE, which will begin dealing with such cases in 60 days. Any immigrant who already has a deportation order and those who never have been encountered by immigration authorities will deal with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
The exact details of how the program will work, including how much immigrants will have to pay to apply and what proof they will need, still are being worked out.
In making it harder to deport, the Obama administration is in essence employing the same eligibility requirements spelled out in the proposed DREAM Act.
The administration officials stopped short of calling the change an administrative DREAM Act - the name is an acronym for Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors - but the qualifications meet those laid out in a 2010 version that failed in the Senate after passing in the House. They said the DREAM Act, in some form, and comprehensive overhaul of the immigration system remained an administration priority.
Illegal immigrant children won't be eligible to apply for the deportation waiver until they turn 16, but the officials said younger children won't be deported either.
Last year, Napolitano announced plans to review about 300,000 pending deportation cases and indefinitely suspend those that didn't meet department priorities.
So far, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has reviewed more than 232,000 cases and decided to stop working on about 20,000. About 4,000 of those 20,000 have opted to keep fighting in court to stay in the United States legally. For the people who opted to close their cases, work permits are not guaranteed.

Publishing in 2012: Epistemology
This new four-volume set of writings in epistemology is intended to display the extraordinary progress that has been made in the past few years in answering some of the most fundamental questions of epistemology.
A Word from the Editor Ram Neta
What is knowledge? what is epistemic justification? what is evidence, and how does it rationally constrain confidence? How can we understand and respond to skeptical challenges? The writings in each volume have been selected not only to represent a diversity of views on the topic, but also to show how progress is made possible by the exchange of ideas within this diversity. Most of the writings collected here have been published in the last few years, and represent some of the best work being done by promising young epistemologists today. If these writings are any indication, the next few decades will witness even more progress in epistemology.
Part of the acclaimed Critical Concepts in Philosophy series, Epistemology will be publish in 2012. Order your copy today!

Throughout history, philosophers—mostly men, though with more women among their number than is sometimes supposed—have often sought to specify and justify the proper roles of women and men, and to explore the political consequences of sexual difference....

Adam Lewis, eight, from The Parks, Bracknell, suffers from hypermobility syndrome, sensory perception disorder and lax ligaments.
The Blue Lion, in Broad Lane, held a coffee morning, rock 'n' roll bingo and a raffle. They raised the money in just three months, with the coffee morning alone bringing in £120.
The money will be donated to Adam's Wheels, and will go towards a comfortable dining chair and car seat. His family has already successfully raised money to get a new state-of-the-art lightweight wheelchair.
Trevor Cook, general manager of the Blue Lion, said: "They're so local; they only live round the corner. The parents come into the pub, and we wanted to do something which was very local.
"There are so many good causes out there it's difficult to choose one, they're all worthwhile.
"We're a locals' pub so we wanted to something for a local cause. We are looking forward to handing over the cheque, and we are delighted to have raised such a substantial amount of money.
"The community has come to together to make a difference for Adam – it has been fantastic!"
The cheque for the final amount will be presented to Adam's parents, Sarah and Peter Lewis, on Friday, March 7. Donations are continuing to be collected until then.

I'm looking for the something other people who try sites like this are looking for. I hope anyways. I'm looking for someone who is tried of wasting time on people who just ruin it for the ones who want to be in a serious relationship. That's what the personal ads on Craigslist is for. What I'm looking for is a man who doesn't have a problem with honesty, good or bad. I don't want to be lied to because my feelings are being spared. It's simple, be honest and be faithful or you have nothing. With someone you have things in common with, the rest is easy. Especially if you can make me laugh. Now as for me, I'm pretty go with the flow. I enjoy a glass of wine(red) I'm the morning sometimes or Jack in my cup of coffee on a cold morning. Sometimes I like breakfast for dinner or cold pizza for breakfast. The one thing I can't live without (besides my kids) is music. All music. I've never been on a real hunting trip, but always wanted to go. My children are my world and the most important people in my life. I love to eat, but I'm a terrible cook. And on Sunday mornings I like to start my week with some Joel Osteen followed by football and beer. Love my Cowboys. Other than that I'm pretty easy to get along with and always open to new things.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Playing cards , Travel/Sightseeing , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Swimming, VolleyBall, Weights / Machines
I don't exercise regularly.
I have Cats, Dogs

Middle of the Road
love to to beach
Kenny chesney, citizen cope, Santana. I really enjoy making my own play lists and downloading music. tv...big bang theory, house, call of the Wildman, love duck dynasty, and just about anything on the Smithsonian, history or discovery channel.
whatever makes me happy that day. Sometimes you may be in a different mood than you were when your made plans previously.

text: The Civil Rights Act of 1964 banned discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin in public accommodations including restaurants, hotels, theaters and retail businesses. The Act created the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to ban workplace discrimination. Before the Act employers could legally exclude blacks from job openings with a simple "no Negroes." Congressman John Lewis, who was brutally beaten at Selma in 1965, told participants "times have changed" but work needed to be done on civil rights, such as restoring important provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. (The GOP-dominated Supreme Court struck down key provisions in 2013.)

Hi Steve,
Guided by your explanation then; if I want to burn an area for an additional 1/2 stop above the base, 10 sec:If I understand correctly. If, for example, your base exposure is 10 sec and you press -1 stop, the timer will count up to 5 secs. By pressing the calc button it will show this. If you then pressed +1/4 with 'Calc' button on it then shows 11.9 sec which is the base, 10 secs, + the 1/4 stop. Your base time is always set in the timer via the keys under the display and stored by the 'Ent' button. Personally I have found this timer to be one of the best f / stop timers. I have never tried the RH stop clock but do have the Analyser. I find that good but it has to many secondary functions which confuses my simple mind.
10 sec>ENT> -1/2 stop = 7.1 sec... Hmm, given that the sequence is 10, 11.9, 14.1, etc., shouldn't the difference be 4.1 sec? Hey, and you thought you had a 'simple mind'!

Alan D. Gishlick is a Post Doctoral Scholar of the National Center for Science Education, a non-profit organization dedicated to defending the teaching of evolution in public schools. His research interests include the functional transitions in the history of life, their role in concepts of biological identity and their uses in interpreting patterns of evolution. He is also interested in the teaching of the history of life; and the interface between science and religion, especially as it relates to biological evolution. He received a Ph.D. in Geology and Geophysics at Yale University.
Scott Hays has been involved in public school education since 1977. He taught 4-8th grade in a two-room, rural school for twenty years, spent about four years as a provider of professional development in the areas of science and language acquisition, and retired in 2005 after teaching seventh grade history and English/Language Arts. He teaches children, by the way, and not programs!
Crissy Huffard recently finished her graduate work in the Department of Integrative Biology. Her interests in the behavior, ecology and evolution of Cephalopods, particularly pygmy octopuses, have led her to describe the behavioral ecology of a type of octopus in the Indo-Pacific for her Ph.D. dissertation. In her spare time, Crissy creates scientific illustrations. She has helped prepare images and graphic designs for Understanding Evolution.
Al Janulaw serves as a Teacher Associate of UCMP and is past-president of California Science Teachers Association. He teaches the science methods course in the multi-subject teaching credential program at Sonoma State University.

Many people live as if life were just a series of disconnected events, containing no real meaning and offering no real fulfillment. But you can find satisfaction in life — if you're willing to change your perspective and take action. That's what this book is designed to help you do!
In these pages, you'll learn to live a deeper, richer, more rewarding life. Not a life of random events, occurring to seemingly- disconnected people, but a life in which you are deeply important and involved. A life that will give you joy, meaning and purpose — every moment of every day.
The LifeWork Principle is an action-oriented approach, not
another "pie-in-the-sky" theory.
Somehow you know instinctively that there's more to life than just your physical existence. But how do you discover it? How can you fill that gnawing emptiness inside? How can you move from listlessness and confusion to joy and satisfaction?
This book will point you in the right direction.
The LifeWork Principle will help you develop a new perspective on life, and show you how to live each week, each day – each hour! – to its fullest. You'll start to see your life as a unique and unrepeatable role created just for you. And you'll begin to experience true joy, real fulfillment and deep satisfaction like you never thought was possible.

September 13 Denver Show Now to Benefit Lyons, CO
By now, you've probably seen photos and footage of the devastating floods that are sweeping through Colorado. Our thoughts are with all of those that have been affected. Cuasing seemingly-countless acts of destruction, the beautiful town of Lyons, CO is nearly completely submerged under fast moving-water. Tomorrow night, the same night we're playing Cervantes' Masterpiece Ballroom in Denver, our friends Town Mountain were set to play the stages at Planet Bluegrass, which has also fallen victim to the floods. We and Cervantes have invited the band to come to Denver to play an evening of music with us in the adjoining music hall, Cervantes' Other Side. Coral Creek String Band will still be pickin' in the Other Side, too!
Tickets (regardless of when they're purchased) will include admission to both Cervantes' Masterpiece Ballroom and the Other Side. Additionally, $2 from every ticket will go to Lyons, CO relief! Tickets are $25 in advance, $30 day of the show. That means at midnight Mountain Time tonight, the ticket price goes up to $30—so get it while you can and help us donate relief to the Planet Bluegrass ranch!

27 year old man | San Antonio, TX, USA | Seeking women 18-27 within 50 miles
I'm Austin. Live in San Antonio, Texas and love it. People are laid back here and that's the best part about it.
I like to go to lifetime, run at Eisenhower park, lay out by the pool, be on the lake, river or up at the ranch. I'm a morning person. That's the German in me. Graduated from UTSA with a degree in Political Science and work in law plus teach on the side when possible. I am not cure nt ly a p a y i ng me mb er. My Sk y pe i.s Austinn8 :) Casual outgoing independent is me. I love German Beer!!!!!. German beer is so far ahead of American beer. If you don't or haven't drank it you'll have to drink with me sometime! Basics: -Christian. I was raised with those values and know the quality of a girl that was as well. That's what I want in the future. The whole nine yards with someone with my values. Growing up in a great family I just never realized how few people were raised well. Trust me the field really is just that sparse. It's hard to find quality out there with the right values. Some of the things some of the girls I've dated off here have told me about their pasts...... just wow.... needless to say not everyone was raised well.. -I am 6'1" tall, 6-pack, a swimmer, Green eyes, dirty blonde hair -Baby Blues, Grey or Green will do. -5'4 or taller at minimum -No kids -Stable family. I have a great family and love them all very much. -No tattoos at all. This means zero tattoos on your entire body. I have to be able to take you to my families big weddings and show you off (and if you have tattoos, Oh. My... God. My female cousins would lecture me right there. It's a matter of pride and honor in oneself and how I was raised to view tattoos. -You know how to use I'm, You're, your, their, they're, there and other basic grammar in sentences. This tells me a lot about you. -White European/American. Let's get specific. Ancestry must be from Northern/North Central Europe such as my own. In blunter terms. *No* Mexicans, Amerindians, Hispanics, Southern Europeans, Africans, Asians, Arabs or mixed race individuals. Thanks for your open mindedness to my life preferences. -I have eyes for European American women.

Actress Jodie Foster has listed her Beverly Hills compound for sale at $9,975,000, the Multiple Listing Service shows.
The main house, with seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms, was built in 1949. Climbing vines and red brick accents give the home an East Coast vibe. Encompassing nearly an acre of land, the compound includes a tennis court, a swimming pool and a guesthouse.
Foster, 48, began working in commercials and television as a child. The actress-producer-director won Oscars for her roles in "The Accused" (1988) and "Silence of the Lambs" (1991). She stars in and directs "The Beaver," set for May release, and will star in the upcoming "God of Carnage."
She has owned the house since 2005. It was on the MLS then for $10.5 million. Foster was not available for comment.

Where can I find morphs, clothes, etc for Deco and Decoco? There's gotta be a fanbase somewhere!

Just because something costs a lot, doesn't mean it's the best…
It just means it's expensive.
I dont think there's much, so in situations like these…. CrossDresser can be your friend:
Good Luck!
Much of what Akatora made isn't available any more, but I do have a link to his Freestuff, no idea if the files are still there for download or not.
**shuffles of with a new headache**
Seems like everything on that page is still there, Bejay…at least it brought up the download dialog for each link clicked.
Decoco is quite old. Been out of development for a year or two.
ManStan - 15 October 2012 06:04 AMDecoco is quite old. Been out of development for a year or two.
True, but unfortunately Deco and Decoco are the only Japanese style anime characters that have even this much stuff. I can't navigate japanese websites well enough to find others. The ones I have found are… erotic. I'd go with an erotic figure if they had a following that made non-erotic content as well, but I don't think there's much of that either.
Here's a few other things I've found over the years.

http://casiopea.jp/download.htm (Decoco slant eye morph, about halfway down the page)
Nezumi had a few items, but I can't find the blog anymore. :(
I also made a character using agent's morphs for Deco awhile back. If you're interested I can try to finish and post it.
If you're looking for asian characters, Kururu is decent and has more items.

I like Bryce, DazStudio, Poser and Vue ... in alphabetical order. And I would probably like Carrara too, if I could find the time to become acquainted with it. Peace?

Whats wrong with Aiko and Hiro?
ManStan - 16 October 2012 06:01 AMWhats wrong with Aiko and Hiro?
I made a bigger post about why I'm not a fan, but it's mostly because the true anime look is not supported by Aiko/Hiro. A lot of people say that they look fine, but to those people I would tell them to open any picture from a typical anime, and then have Aiko/Hitomi/Hiro and Deco/Decoco/Maybe/Sera and compare.
Paradigm67, have you tried the stylized morph in Aiko 3 or 4? That at least gets ride of the horrible nostrils.
My Free Stuff | My Big Store at CP | My Smaller Store at Renderosity | Prayer | Me on Twitter | Me on DA
Yea, I've spent a lot of time with trying to make them to the quality I'd like. I've had some luck using a little Sadie, a little Aiko4 stylizing morphs and a little hitomi using pwToon saders, but the issue tends to be something that would require me to learn how to make my own geometry morphs.
Anime characters tend to have impossibly sharp chins, a lack of cheekbones without a sinking cheek. I feel like the issue is that the Genesis/Gen4 models are originally for realistic figures and there isn't a morph set that removes that reality. The best of my anime adaptations don't cross the line into "anime" imo, and are left in this unnerving gray zone where they don't look quite right.
For those of you familiar with the concept, this is kind of a reverse uncanny valley effect. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncanny_valley)
Yeah, I see what you mean.
Have you tried NearMe (Content Paradise) or AnimeDoll (Renderosity)? NearMe is pretty well supported. AnimeDoll takes MayaDoll clothes. There's also a free male version of it at his website. Let me know if you'd like links.
I have a character (custom morph & textures) coming out soon at Renderosity for Terai Yuki 2 to make her more anime-looking. It's in testing over there right now.
I have a lot of Nearme's stuff and I really like her a lot, or him if you have Naoki. The issue is that while they cover child pretty well, there is no adult figure. I have anime doll but havent touched it much. From the quick stuff I did do, it has barely any morphs at all.
AnimeDoll has a bunch of morphs in the head, some naughty bits in the hip, but none in the main body.
If there are some that you need in the body (and you use Poser), I'll whip them up for you & post them at ShareCG.

text: Well, well, well. Our season kicked of yesterday in the Ramsden cup, against Brechin, on BBC Alba... I really enjoyed it and I think most Rangers fans did. Tough game considering we've had no friendlies at all! So I thought we did well. It's way to early to judge anything so far but I really want to see us playing nice possession football. I'm not convinced we will to be honest. Maybe we'll all learn some Gaelic along the way as well!

I've had this product for over 5 years to walk 2 very big (75 and 100 lb.) German shepherd dogs who together outweight me by nearly 50 lbs. I've found nothing like it for control and confort. After years of nearly daily use, it still looks good and performs well.

Comments about Cujo Shock Absorbing Leash - Black:
I had to give MAJOR props to this dog leash. I am a long time dog owner and I have a 90 pound Lab who loves to pull. I have bought so many leashes, I can't believe I bought one more. I am SO glad I did, this one is amazing! My dog weighs almost as much as I do and he's very strong and for the first time ever, I can walk my dog without fear he will get away from me. My 9 year old can even walk him with this leash! I will say that the original leash was a little short, but you can buy extensions and that made it perfect. I am so happy I am able to walk the dog by myself and I don't need my husband to do it. I don't mean to sound dramatic, but this leash is life changing! I can not say enough great things about it. Thank you!!! & Wag.com is outstanding!

MERU Governor Peter Munya was yesterday given a reprieve by the Supreme Court after it ruled that he continues serving the people of the county.
In a ruling given by judges Jackton Ojwang and Smokin Wanjala, the orders essentially mean that Meru Speaker, Joseph Kaberia, will not be sworn in on Monday as scheduled as the acting governor. According to the Constitution, if a governors seat is declared vacant, the speaker is sworn in on an acting capacity for 60 days pending a by-election.
"Further ruling will be given out on Wednesday April 2," Wanjala said after hearing preliminary objection of the appeal.
On Thursday, Munya moved to the court after the Court of Appeal sitting in Nyeri on Wednesday last week nullified his election.
High Court judge Aoron Makau sitting in Meru had upheld Munya's election in August last year before Dickson Kithinji a close ally of former assistant minister Kilemi Mwiria who was vying for the seat moved to the Court of Appeal.
On hearing the case, appellant judges Alnashir Visram, J. Mohammed and Otieno Odek revoked Munya's election.
In a defence carried out by senior counsel Okongo Omogeni and Tom Ojienda yesterday, they said the appeal raised conventional issues of the Constitution which needed interpretation.
Ojienda said it will be unjust for Munya who was elected by the people of Meru to be removed from office until Constitutional matters are interpreted in the judgment made by appellant judges.
IEBC lawyer prayed for a stay saying the country might end up spending Sh300 million to organise a by election for the county.
However, Kithinji's laywer Muthomi Thiankolu had objected for the stay saying it will open a flood gate for all the petition cases to be taken to the Supreme Court.
"Not any political dispute should be settled in the Supreme Court. The appeal should be dismissed at this earliest stage," he said.

In an effort to simply the application process for prospective physical therapist (PT) residents and fellows as well as to facilitate the admissions process for postprofessional PT residency and fellowship education programs, APTA launched the Residency/Fellowship Physical Therapist Centralized Application Service (RF-PTCAS) on September 16, 2013. RF-PTCAS provides two services, an online application for prospective participants and a web-based admissions management software for programs.
RF-PTCAS allows PT residency and fellowship applicants to use a single web-based application and 1 set of corresponding materials to apply to multiple PT residency/fellowship programs. RF-PTCAS is a service of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) and is administered by Liaison International, an education information technology company located in Watertown, Massachusetts.
Similar to medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, nursing, and the other health professions, RF-PTCAS offers prospective participants a convenient way to research and apply to multiple physical therapist residency/fellowship education programs with a single online application. It is the nation's only centralized application service for applying to accredited physical therapist residency and fellowship education programs.
APTA and its partner Liaison International are excited to announce the latest evolution in physical therapist residency/fellowship centralized application service, RF-PTCAS 3.0. The RF-PTCAS team will launch a new state-of-the-art, more user-friendly application on October 1, 2014.
The new home page for applicants is designed to give applicants a clear sense of status by providing a status for each main section of the application and a new notifications section so they can access important messages. The application utilizes a responsive design so it loads on a smart phone, tablet, or laptop.
In addition, RF-PTCAS 3.0 will give residency and fellowship education programs the flexibility to customize program-specific requirements. Programs will be able to create custom essay questions, collect answers to custom application questions, and collect documents, evaluations (letters of reference), and/or prerequisites.

Rivers leads Chargers past Raiders 24-20
OAKLAND, Calif. Philip Rivers and the San Diego Chargers opened the season doing what they do best: beating the Oakland Raiders.
Rivers answered a pair of go-ahead scores by Oakland by leading two touchdown drives, capped by Darren Sproles' 5-yard run with 18 seconds left that gave the Chargers their 12th straight in this one-sided rivalry, 24-20 Monday night.
This might have been the toughest one of the bunch. JaMarcus Russell had given Oakland a 20-17 lead with a 57-yard touchdown pass to rookie Louis Murphy with 2:34 left. But despite having two backup linemen in the game, Rivers calmly led the Chargers down the field for the winning score.
"One thing I know is no team in this league can practice 2-minute situations as much as we do," Rivers said. "It's a little different executing it on Murphy Canyon Road as it is in Oakland. ... I said: 'Well, we've done this a million times, let's go score. All we need is three.' I was talking to myself, too."
Rivers was six for seven for 79 yards on the winning drive before Sproles silenced the crowd with his run up the middle. This marked the Raiders' 11th straight loss in prime time and perhaps the most painful, considering how close they came.
"Our football team played its guts out and didn't finish the game," coach Tom Cable said. "That's the bottom line."
They took a 13-10 lead early in the fourth quarter on a 35-yard field goal by Sebastian Janikowski before Rivers drove the Chargers down and gave them the lead with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Vincent Jackson. Then Russell's fourth-down pass to Murphy looked as if it would provide an emphatic end to a pair of losing streaks. Instead, it was just a footnote to Oakland's league-worst 73rd loss since the start of the 2003 season.
The Chargers offense looked overmatched for much of the night against newly acquired Richard Seymour and the Raiders defense. Injuries to center Nick Hardwick and guard Louis Vasquez in the third quarter made moving the ball even tougher for San Diego and the frustration led Rivers to commit a personal foul that thwarted one drive.
But the two last drives were the reason why the Chargers gave Rivers a six-year contract extension worth $93 million, with $38 million guaranteed, last month. He finished 24 for 36 for 252 yards, playing his best when it counted most.
"People talk about quarterbacks that handle pressure, that respond and lead their teams from behind," Chargers coach Norv Turner said. "He's done it continuously and he's done it in some real difficult situations like tonight. It's great to get the win here."
Russell nearly had overcome a rough night with that one pass to Murphy. Russell was 12 for 30 for 208 yards and two interceptions, including one on a desperation heave following Sproles' TD.
Oakland got a big boost from Seymour, who arrived from New England two days ago and didn't even go through a full practice with his new team. He sacked Rivers twice in the first half and helped Oakland keep longtime nemesis LaDainian Tomlinson in check.

This section addresses the following Georgia QCC standard(s)
Topography = The shape of the earth's surface
The topography is made up of different kinds of landforms. There are three major types of landforms:
Mountains are natural landscape features that reach high elevations. They typically have narrow summits and steep sides. Relief is high.
Mountains can form in several ways:
Plains are flat areas that do not rise far above sea level. They are areas of low relief.
Plateaus are broad, flat areas of land that reach more than 600 m above sea level. They are not considered to be mountains because their surfaces are fairly flat. Plateaus maybe cut deeply by streams, such as the Colorado Plateau, which is cut by the Colorado River, forming the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
Grand Canyon, Arizona
There are many other types of landforms. They can be grouped into eight categories based on their origin:
Buttes in Monument Valley, Arizona/Utah border
Sea arch
See examples of the various types of landforms on topographic maps at this web site: http://www.csus.edu/indiv/s/slaymaker/Geol10L/landforms.htm
Physiographic Provinces
The US can be divided into a number of physiographic provinces based on the types of landforms found there. Click here to see a map of the major physiographic provinces of the US: http://www.gpc.edu/~pgore/geology/historical_lab/scanning/131.jpg.
These include:
Each has a distinctive topography and geologic history.
Land formations influence the economic development of an area. Note that the major US cities tend to be near bodies of water. They also tend to be in relatively flat areas, such as plains, or in valleys.
Physiographic Provinces of Georgia

PICTURES: Steeple Morden sailor's snaps land him major photography award in Royal Navy's annual competition
Posted: June 13, 2014|
A sailor from Cambridgeshire has won a major photography prize for his work in capturing naval operations on camera.
Petty Officer Julian Merrill, known to everyone as Mez, has been awarded the prestigious Peregrine Trophy in the Royal Navy's annual photographic competition
The 43-year-old from Steeple Morden won the award for his shots of the Commando Helicopter Force (CHF) on exercises in Jordan and Norway.
He said: "I am absolutely delighted to have won the Peregrine Trophy – it means a lot to me to have my work recognised in this way.
"I have a real passion for photography and working alongside CHF gives me a unique opportunity to take images across the world in unusual locations."
Mez joined the Royal Navy in 1987 as a junior seaman operator and has served on frigates and fishery protection vessels on deployments both in the UK and around the world.
In 1993 worked for the Senior Naval Officer Northern Ireland in Belfast before transferring to the Royal Navy's elite photographic branch in 2000.
Having spent the last three years in the CHF, Mez has deployed to Afghanistan twice and to Norway for several months in both 2013 and 2014.
He entered the images into The Peregrine Trophy Awards earlier this year and was chosen as the overall winner for his collection of powerful photographs.
Captain Ian Stidston, Head of the Royal Navy Photographic Branch, said: "The very high standard of the images displayed onboard HMS Bulwark today are testament to the flexibility and can-do approach of our people and highlight the dedication to both their art and their Service.
"I could not be more proud of the Navy's photographers who have managed to capture compelling still and moving images that vividly tell the story of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines on operations."

Friday, March 2 will feature March Madness in downtown Ridgway as part of the First Friday initiative established by the Main Street program. First Friday encourages retail shops in downtown to remain open longer on Friday evenings.
"We are encouraging those who do not have extended hours to do so at least one time a month," Main Street Manager, Michelle Bogacki said. "We hope to get a little bit of a night life in Ridgway."
While there is more snow to come and nary a bloom peeping out of the ground, it isn't stopping area residents from gazing dreamily out of their windows with big plans for their gardens and spring landscaping.
Natalie Aiello, the Elk-Cameron County 4-H/Youth Extension Educator for the Penn State Cooperative Extension and the Extension's Master Gardener Coordinator for Elk County, said there are a number of things people can do now to prepare for the planting season.
ST. MARYS – Those looking to rid their closest of prom and formal gowns, wedding dresses and accessories may consider donating them to local schoolteacher Laura Kuntz, who distributes the gowns to underprivileged girls and women in poverty-stricken Beatyville, Ky.
Now in her fourth year of collecting gowns, Kuntz plans to made the trip to Kentucky this month, earlier than in past years.
ST. MARYS – Spring is almost here, which means area residents will once again begin the tedious task of spring cleaning. For those looking to dispose of old passenger vehicle tires, the Elk County Solid Waste Authority recently set the dates for their annual tire collections.
"We've already had calls about when we're going to do tire collections. Everybody wants to know," said Bekki Titchner, Elk County recycling/solid waste coordinator.
JONES TWP. – The Ridgway-based Pa. State Police report investigating an incident of attempted suicide that occurred on March 1 at 2:15 p.m. on Glen Hazel Road in Jones Township, Elk County. According to police, the incident occurred as a 49-year-old known female of Johnsonburg, took pills and deliberately drove off of the road and struck a tree. The woman was transported to the Elk Regional Health Center for treatment. Police were assisted at the scene by the Wilcox Fire Department.
In an effort to implement cost savings and unify 911 services, nine counties in northern Pennsylvania have teamed up to upgrade to a "Next Generation 911 Telephony System and Network."
The counties are Cameron, Clarion, Clearfield, Elk, Forest, Jefferson, McKean, Venango and Warren.
"[The counties] have worked together as one entity to create a regional network and improving technology and operations while saving costs to their individual counties," said Michael C. McGrady, the president of MCM Consulting Group out of McMurray.
ST. MARYS - With the progression of PennDOT's Million Dollar Highway project, PennDOT has begun acquiring properties adjacent to a downtown St. Marys intersection slated to be widened.
According to Marla Fannin, community relations coordinator with PennDOT District 2, the scope of the project is to "provide full-depth reconstruction of the roadway from Wal-Mart to the St. Marys Diamond," with the estimated cost being $11 million.
Included in project plans is the widening of the SR 255/ SR 120 intersection.
KERSEY – Whenever Kersey resident Amy Donachy returns home, her pet, Wilbur, is there to greet her. He knows his name and even comes when she calls him.
Wilbur is not a dog, cat, or other "traditional" pet, though-- he is a pig.
Donachy, 18, explained that she first got Wilbur two years ago after wanting a pig ever since she was a little girl. When her mother finally gave in, her family looked for a pig on the Pennswoods website and found a litter near the Pennsylvania/Maryland border.
Area residents attending Saturday's Kentucky Headhunters/Confederate Railroad concert will also be treated to the comedy stylings of St. Marys native Brad Leviski, who goes by the stage name of "Bubba Bradley."
Leviski said he had always thought about being a comic, but never really got the opportunity until about three and a half years ago.
"I was working at a bar in Montana. I was the head bouncer. A buddy of mine knew a comic in L.A. and had him come in and do a show. They wanted somebody to warm up the crowd for five minutes and I volunteered," Leviski said.
ST. MARYS – In a campaign stop in St. Marys this past Friday, Congressman Glenn Thompson, who is seeking re-election as representative for Pa.'s 5th District, spoke to supporters gathered at Gunner's Restaurant and asked for their vote.
Thompson also discussed at Friday's event the expansion of his voter base as the result of recent redistricting, or reapportionment, of the Congressional 5th district by the state's legislative leaders in the Pa. House and Senate. Redistricting takes place every 10 years following the outcome of the Census.
