Thank you all for your b-day wishes!!!!THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS!!!!!Thank you all for your b-day wishes!!!!7 months ago in Personal More Like This
I'm 19 now!! Dear Lord I'm getting older, but with age along comes knowledge and wisdom
As you can see I haven't been posting new material lately, that's because as I said before, I'm in college now and there's a lot of homework I need to do
It's kinda exhausting, but it's all worth it at the end of the day. I'm learning everything I need to know in order to be a better and succesful artist!!
Also... they're teaching me how to use Illustrator and all of those programs!! It's really awesome, so who knows! Digital art by Rsac3 could be coming sooner than you think!! SO.. Stay tuned, and once again thank you all for your birthday wishes!!!

All four Ghouls Rule dolls and new CAM's!!!Thanks to Lillian Gracey on Monsterhighdolls.com for find this.All four Ghouls Rule dolls and new CAM's!!!1 year ago in Personal More Like This
In this video we can see all four Ghouls Rule dolls. Some people are complaining saying that all dolls look ridiculous, weird and stuff like that. You know what people? This is "MONSTER HIGH", the name says it all, if not, it would be called with another name.
I personally love all of their wackiness and their very "Gaga" sense of style (I'm a huge Gaga fan), so I don't have any problem with them, and it's great to see that Mattel has more to give that just a blonde doll with blue eyes and wearing pink all the time (no offence to Barbie fans) I love Barbie, but I also think she's redundant and boring, Monster High has showed several styles just in one single line of dolls and that's what I like about them, different styles, new characters, dark things, I seriously think Monster High was created for me
You can also see the new CAM dolls on the background, there's a boy that look

Sucker Punch:: Guardian AngelEveryone has an angel.Sucker Punch:: Guardian Angel1 year ago in Personal More Like This
A guardian who watches over us.
We can't know what form they'll take.
One day, old man.
Next day, little girl.
But don't let appearances fool you.
They can be as fierce as any dragon.
Yet they're not here to fight our battles.
but to whisper from our heart.
reminding that it's us...
lt's every one of us who holds
the power over the worlds we create..
We can deny our angels exist..
convince ourselves they can't be real.
But they show up anyway.
At strange places.
And at strange times.
They can speak through any character
we can imagine.
They'll shout through demons
if they have to...
daring us..
challenging us to fight.

Raffle! Win a custom pony!So it looks like enough people are interested in a raffle that I may as well go ahead with it!Raffle! Win a custom pony!7 months ago in Personal More Like This
Not everyone wants to shell out $50-$100 for a pony, here is your chance to win one for as low as $5!
Every $5 donation will get one entry (so a $20 donation would be 4 entries), and for every 10 tickets bought, another winner will be drawn! Winners can choose any pony they like, up to four inches tall. OC ponies are fine as well!
There will be at least one guaranteed winner. That means, if only one person donates $5, they are going to win a sculpture of their choice! I will pay shipping.
Raffle Tickets will be on sale until the 14th of November, at which point the drawing will be held and winners announced. I figure two weeks will give plenty of time to enter while still allowing me time to finish the winning sculpts and have them shipped out before xmas.
If you would like to participate, you can simply send payment for however many raffle entries you'd like to: firstname.lastname@example.com

Until then, enjoy a couple wallpaper(s) that I'm making since I'm bored and am borrowing a friend's laptop for the weekend.

I don't believe so, but I could be wrong. I know that Lids will embroider your hat at a pretty low price though.
Hi, We do offer custom embroidery for both personalized adjustable hats and one of the fitted caps (high front). The minimum order is two dozen and it takes about 4 weeks. You can place this order through any authorized Titleist pro shop or retailer.

Check out the DG homepage for a brief overview of what you'll find in this gardening mega-site.
Hardcopy edition:Publish date: September 1999Published by: Timber PressList price: $39.95ISBN Number: 0881924261
This is a fun read if you're into esoteric plants, although some of the genera that Hinkley talks about are starting to make their way into the gardening mainstream. He clearly loves plant hunting and his descriptions are marvelous. The only caveat is that one gets the impression that Hinkley is more of a botanist than a gardener at heart, and thus sometimes you might not share his fascination with a particular variety in terms of garden-worthiness. That said, I've read it twice in search of overlooked new plant possibilities!
The book is a treasure for those interested in rare and unusual perennials and explicit details from finding plants in the wild to hardiness,propagation & cultivation.An example: "Another thrill from my 1996 expedition was to observe Rodgersia sambucifolia growing in the wild along the eastern flank of the Chang Shan." Entertaining and educational.His 'garden',Heronswood Nursery, in Kingston,Washington is wonderful.

Sony patent shows Eyepad tablet controller
Sony's big PlayStation 4 unveiling is quickly approaching its February 20th date, and leaks and rumors are naturally abound. The weekend saw the first picture of PlayStation 4's prototype controller, which is a major departure from the current DualShock model with PS Move and a touchpad integrated into its slightly bigger form factor.
Now a patent secured by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has made it onto the Internet, suggesting that Sony is working on a fancy tablet-like controller for its consoles, called 'EyePad'.
From the patent, it doesn't seem like it's a proper tablet but a WiiU GamePad-esque controller to be used exclusively for console gaming. The EyePad features two stereoscopic cameras at opposite corners of the controller to generate 3D virtual buttions and game-pads. It also features illuminated edges that could be used for motion-controller gaming akin to the PlayStation Move.
The EyePad can also scan objects placed on top of it using the stereoscopic cameras, allowing for interactions similar to EyePet.
Now, this is only a patent for now and doesn't necessarily mean it will be translated into a product. Sony's expected to talk about the 'future of PlayStation' on February 20th, and if they will show an EyePad-like controller for the PS4 remains to be seen.

McCracken County Fiscal Court Hears Budget Request From Clerk's Office
The majority of the McCracken County Clerk's office attended the county's Fiscal Court Meeting yesterday to present more than $20 million in budget requests.
This comes after County Clerk Jeff Jerrell sued the court this summer for forcing his office to convert to the fee pool system. The system requires the office to turn over all fees collected to the treasurer's office each month. Jerrell lost the suit
but is appealing the decision.
As for the budget presentation, Judge-Executive Van Newberry says the large meeting attendance will not sway the court's decision regarding approval.
"It's heavy-handed politics to try to bring people in like that, and it doesn't work on this fiscal court," newberry said. "We're not going to be swayed by a bunch of people sitting there—how
many there was, 15 or 20—certainly not."
The Court asked for more information about the office's current spending and said members will discuss the issue again at its Jan. 28 meeting.

So this is only the first part of wigs. Sorry about the southern accent. If anything is off or incorrect, PLEASE let me know! I didn't write anything incorrectly just for the sole purpose of insulting you people with the accent. I didn't mean to write it wrong and I would appreciate the feedback. I'm from Maryland so I really don't know southern accents. Also, I've had a bit going on so I don't have the whole thing up, sorry!
"Cara, wake up, honey. It's time," a familiar voice said. I opened my eyes and slowly sat up on my hospital bed. I inhaled deeply and released a sigh, and then I looked for the source of the voice. I saw a familiar face standing in the doorway; she was wearing blue scrubs and white sneakers. Her brown hair was pulled back into a ponytail with a few loose strands hanging in her face covering her forehead. A star shaped pendant rested on her chest, lying next to a nametag that was pinned to her shirt which read "Allison."
"Come on Cara. You know you can't be late again. This test is important and Dr. Callihan will be furious if you're late. Remember the last test? Well if you're late to this, it will be ten times worse." she scolded lightly. I knew what she was talking about of course. Last week I had a test done and I was about ten minutes late. My doctor practically blew her lid because she only had the testing equipment for a short amount of time and I used up all of the prep time for the test by being late.
I groaned and got out of the bed. Then I sauntered past the extra bed, over to the little bathroom that was attached to the room. It was clean enough for you to see your reflection in the counter of the sink. I brushed my teeth and went over to where Allison had a wheelchair waiting for me. Oh, how I hate wheelchairs!
"Please remind me, why do I have to have a wheelchair again?" I asked the nurse waiting patiently behind the wheelchair.
"Haven't we been over this? It's the hospital's policy: 'All patients must be moved from one place to another on either a gurney or in a wheelchair,'" she recited.
I responded, "I've come to hate these stupid contraptions. Whoever invented them was a cruel, cruel man."
Allison laughed. "But what if it was a woman who invented it?"
"Was it?" I questioned. I was slightly curious.
"I have no clue. But you say the same thing every time you sit in a wheelchair."
"That's because I despise wheelchairs, Allison." I bluntly stated.
Just then we reached the large double doors that I've passed through countless times. I knew that these doors lead to the sanitized and sterile room that held large expensive pieces of equipment (most of which I don't know the name of).
"Ready?" Allison asked.
"I'll never be ready," I responded. Then I was pushed through the large double doors.
After the test, Allison wheeled me back to the room. We went through the children's ward on our way back. I'm always depressed when I go through the ward because I always see the other little children like me that know they have an expiration date. You can see it on their faces. I know they only have a short amount of time, that's why I don't make friends with them. I've heard countless heart beats stop. It's heartbreaking, but its home.
I'm used to the smell of alcohol and lemons from the sanitizers and disinfectants. Shiny, white rooms and the sounds of a mother's distressed cries are normal for someone like me. I've seen cold, pale, lifeless bodies, more than I can count. And I know there's only so much time before one cold, pale, lifeless body is me.
Allison pushed me into my room and I rushed over to my bed. I lied down, took my laptop from the nightstand and placed it on my lap. I turned it on and was waiting to log in to do some missed schoolwork, when Allison popped her head back in. "Oh, Cara," she said. "You're getting a roommate tonight." A new roommate? Seriously? But I don't want a roommate, I like having a room to myself!
Allison cringed at my expression, but waited for me to say something. "Whatever," I mumbled. I averted my eyes back to the laptop and logged in. "And the doctor wants to see you for a new scan at two 'o'clock sharp." She quickly added. I glared at her. She took the hint and left, closing the door behind her.
When I returned from my scan, the first thing I noticed was that the empty bed had sheets on it. Then I noticed that there was a picture frame on the nightstand next to the usually empty bed. Curiosity got the better of me as I walked over to the nightstand and picked up the picture. The picture was of three teenagers around my age, who looked like best friends. There was a girl and two boys.
The girl was on the far left. She had long, flowing, curly black hair, and soft brown eyes. One could tell just by the way she smiled that she was carefree and was happy. Her eyes were surrounded by light makeup; a little bit of eye shadow, eye liner and mascara. Opposite of the girl, on the far right, was an African American boy. His features were sharp and he had cute little dimples when he smiled. It was obvious that he worked out because of his defined muscles that you could see the outline of through his Georgia State football shirt.
The boy in the center caught my attention most. He had on a black knitted beanie and a white wife beater. His emerald eyes seemed to pierce into my soul, but behind the expressionless face he showed the camera, was pain. I've seen it enough to know what pain looks likes. He was thin, an unhealthy kind of thin and his skin was ghostly white.
"Can I help you, ma'am?" I jumped in surprise at the sound of the unfamiliar voice It was smooth and slightly deep. I could tell that there was a hint of a southern twang.
"Um, no," I looked up and saw the boy from the picture. He was still wearing the same beanie as he was in the picture.
"Are ya'll sure?"
"Yes, now um, would you mind telling me why you are in my room?" I asked. He could be some famous country singer for all I know, but it doesn't mean that I want him in my room.
"Dis-here's mah room," he told me, sounding confident.
"No, it's mine. Do you see that?" I asked him, pointing to the laptop on my nightstand. "That's my laptop, meaning this is my room."
"But the nurse told me dis-here's where I need to stay." He looked confused and I felt sorry for him. He was just a confused little boy- well actually he was probably older than me, but still. He was just given incorrect information by the nurse. They did that to me a lot at first, but they've been better about it lately. That's why I did something that I'm not supposed to do.
"Allison!" I cried. I waited for a response from her and the boy gave me a weird look as if I am insane. Nothing.
"Allison!" I called again. Nothing.
"Allison!" I screamed and the poor boy beside me had to cover his ears. "Sorry," I apologized, quietly.
Allison came rushing in, pressing the button to call in other nurses while her eyes frantically searched the room to see what the problem was. "What? What's wrong? Whose heart stop- Cara, nothing is wrong in here, is there?" She looked disappointed in me.
"Actually the problem is that he-" I pointed to the young teen in front of me. "- is here instead of his room. Since I don't know which room is his, I was wondering if you could take him back."
"This is his room."
"What do you mean?"
"This is your roommate-" she started.
"Kyle," the boy interrupted. He flashed me a smile, " The name's Kyle, ma'am."
"Well, um... Howdy, Kyle," I said awkwardly.
"Howdy, yerself," he said, winking at me.
"Oh joy," I sarcastically muttered under my breath.

generative modeling for Rhino
Tags: closed, curve, inward, offset
Yes I am having the same problems. Works fine for a positive offset but doesn't like it when it is negative.
Jinge, can you post you VB Script, using curve.offset please.
Sorry Paul,
I didn't visit this forum for quite a long time. I almost forget about it. I'm travelling and I don't have the script by my side now, I will try do find it later.
Can you have a look at the Offset curve command in GH 0.8.0007. It appears to be totally up the duff.
The component is totally unpredictable. Using the same method (a simple referenced rhino rectangle) some times it offsets in the positive direction, and other times in the negative direction (using the same offset value). Other times, it does't offset in one direction. I though it might be a tolerance or unit issue in the rhino file but it all appears to be fine. Frustrating!
The latest answer: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/offset-help?commentId=298...
Hopefully David is very nearly ready to release the next version.
HI Michal
What version of Grasshopper are you using? I'm on 0.8.0066 and it is working for me with your geometry. I know that for previous versions the offset curve component wasn't working properly.
I am using Rhino 4 and Grasshopper 0.9.0014. I tested your approach with Wires instead of edge and seems to work. This means that works better wires ...thanks for help
Ps. Is there any way I can do all wall at the same time or need to do each separately?
Yep - when you right click on the surface geometry component ('Brep wall_windows') select 'Set multiple surfaces' instead of 'set one surface'.

These 6" x 6" sheets have a 30 µm grit and are sold in a pack of 5. To use, drop distilled water on to the sheet and polish in a figure-eight motion using an appropriate polishing puck. We recommend using these sheets in conjunction with our four other polishing films for ceramic ferrules sold separately.
Thorlabs offers lapping (polishing) sheets to polish a connector after the fiber has been epoxied into the ceramic ferrule. Polishing or Lapping Film is composed of tiny particles glued to a substrate. By moving the connector over the polishing film, excess material is removed and the fiber end is polished. Different grades of polishing film are used in successive polishing cycles. Each polishing cycle uses a finer grit paper.

After building a cozy 37-point halftime lead over Hillgrove, Lassiter needed to chew off the remaining 4 minutes of clock before finally putting the Hawks away and securing a 37-29 victory at McEachern's Walter Cantrell Stadium.
The nightcap of the made-for-TV doubleheader, between Walton and McEachern, was a physical and evenly matched game before the Raiders finally prevailed 37-35 on Anthony Price's 43-yard field goal. Tyren Jones led the Walton offense once again with 329 more yards, giving him 638 after just two games.
In the process, the Alabama-bound back narrowly avoided serious injury late in the first half, when he was at the receiving end of an illegal hit to the head from McEachern linebacker Kell Parham. Jones sustained a bloody nose, according to Walton coach Rocky Hidalgo, but he was cleared to play in the second half.
A few plays earlier, Parham had made a similar hit on Walton tight end Brad Green. Green never returned to the game, and Parham was ejected following his hit on Jones.
"They're both OK," Hidalgo said Saturday. "Brad has a bruised sternum and is day-to-day, depending on his symptoms. Tyren's fine. (The injury) was his helmet coming down and hitting him in the nose. That's what happened to him more than anything."
During the first half of the Lassiter-Hillgrove game, it seemed as if the Trojans were moving the ball with ease.
Quarterback Eddie Printz got his receivers involved, often turning short passes into long gains, and Lassiter scored on every first half drive except for one.
"I don't know who was more surprised, me or (Hillgrove) coach (Phil) Ironside on how well we played the first half, and they didn't play very well in the first half," Lassiter coach Jep Irwin said. "We have a lot of work, and I have a lot of work to do to get the team prepared to play a four-quarter game next week against Sprayberry."
Hillgrove had a first-half lapse for the second straight week. The Hawks trailed at the half in their season opener against Westlake a week ago before things clicked in the second half of a 31-15 win.
In the first half against Lassiter's defense, quarterback Troy Thompson was constantly under pressure against Lassiter's front seven, making it tough for him to get into sync.
All that changed in the second half, once the Hawks made adjustments.
Hillgrove stormed back into the game by scoring four unanswered second-half touchdowns, taking advantage of two Lassiter turnovers in the process, as well as converting an onside kick.
Thompson nearly matched Printz's passing totals with a strong second-half performance, throwing for 239 yards — 1 yard shy of Printz's total. All of Evan Engram's 128 receiving yards came after halftime.
"We caught some balls and got some screens off," Ironside said. "We started moving the ball, and that was a little 'funner.' The defense also started playing better and it was a little 'funner.'"
Marietta bounced back from a tough loss to Newnan to defeat Pope 27-7 behind Anthony Jennings' 230 yards and two touchdowns through the air. He also rushed for a 23 yards and another two scores.
Kennesaw Mountain returned to the win column for the first time in more than a year by beating Sprayberry 28-24 at home on Jamari Carter's 4-yard touchdown. South Cobb needed an 11-yard fourth-quarter touchdown run by Stephon Masha to secure a 29-22 win over Westlake.
Harrison, Allatoona and North Cobb also won their season openers, while Whitefield Academy, Mount Paran Christian and Pebblebrook will attempt to bounce back from tough losses.

Uhlaender within striking distance of medals in World Cup opener
LAKE PLACID, N.Y. (Nov. 8, 2012)-After a rocky first run in the women's skeleton World Cup season opener, Katie Uhlaender (Breckenridge, Colo.) strung together a blistering second heat to complete the first day of racing in sixth position at Mount Van Hoevenberg. The Lake Placid skeleton events are being held in a new three-heat format, and only the top 10 athletes qualified for the final tomorrow.
"I'm really happy that there's a third heat coming," Uhlaender said. "The field is competitive though, and it's Lake Placid- anything can happen."
The last time Uhlaender took a competitive run on the Lake Placid course she was en route to winning the 2012 World Championship title. The gold medal favorite was in the lead by the third split of her first run, but a major hit against the wall before corner 10 bumped her into 12th position.
"I hit really hard out of corner 10, and I haven't done that in years," Uhlaender said. "I guess I just screwed up…. Before the second heat I was talking to [Steven] Holcomb via text and calmed myself down and reminded myself of what I did at worlds."
Uhlaender regrouped and clocked a blistering second run of 55.89 seconds. She bettered her first heat by 0.64 seconds and moved up six positions to place her within striking distance of the medals tomorrow with a two-run combined time of 1:52.42.
Canadians Sarah Reid and Mellisa Hollingsworth clocked total times of 1:51.72 and 1:51.74 to finish in first and second place after the first day of racing. Reid's best World Cup finish to date is sixth and she looked astonished with her first day result while standing in the leader's box. Hollingsworth wrapped up the 2011-2012 season second overall, and is always a threat for the podium.
Germany's Marion Thees posted a two-run total of 1:52.02 to finish 0.30 seconds off the pace in third.
Kimber Gabryszak (Park City, Utah) had a strong showing in the U.S. team selection races, but she just missed qualifying for the final heat tomorrow after finishing 13th. Gabryszak clocked runs of 56.77 and 56.26 seconds for a combined time of 1:53.03 to put her 0.22 seconds from the top 10.
"Ironically, it's almost a relief," Garbyszak said about starting the international competitive season. "The competition here is extremely intense. I'm just glad to be here first and foremost. I'm having a great time. I had a really rough first run, but my second run was good. I should be happy with that."
"There's a little rust remembering how to handle the pressure of World Cup," Gabryszak said. "Trying to treat it like another day of sliding is always a challenge."
World Cup action continues at 1 p.m. today with the men's skeleton event. The women's and men's skeleton finals will take place tomorrow between the bobsled races.
Please contact Amanda Bird, USBSF Marketing & Communications Director, at email@example.com or 518-354-2250 with media inquiries.

September 14th, 2012
We're less than one month away from the brand new season of The Vampire Diaries and when our favourite Mystic Fall residents return to our TV screens they'll have a lot of questions to answer. How will Elena react to being a vampire? Where is Tyler now that Klaus has taken over his body? What will the spirits do to Bonnie when they find out she helped Klaus?
One question that we won't be asking is whether or not the cast of sexy vampire thriller is still, well sexy. That's a big 'ol YES! In these cast pics for Season 4 of The Vampires Diaries we see not only a very confident looking Elena, but all three original vampires back for more. Plus, Caroline, Bonnie, Matt, Jeremy, Tyler and the Salvatore brothers are all back and looking goooooood. Especially considering the fact that half of them are technically dead.
The Vampire Diaries returns with brand new episodes on Friday, October 12 at 8 pm ET on MUCH.

They also requested an RFI from Eurofighter last month
And Norway are making a decision in the next 12 months of F-35 or Typhoon... which may be Typhoon as they already have a substantial workshare on it without committing to orders.
Also, the US may have shot themselves in the foot over exporting the F-35... this article appeared in the Sunday Times today:
Britain in battle with US over fighter plane
Peter Almond and Dominic O'Connell
BRITAIN is threatening to pull out of the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), a co-operative combat-aircraft project with America that is one of the largest military programmes in the world.
The move, confirmed to The Sunday Times by senior defence officials, could have serious repercussions for BAE Systems and Rolls-Royce, Britain's two main contributors to the project.
BAE is part of the consortium developing the plane, and had expected revenues of about $24 billion (Ă'ÂŁ13.8 billion) in development and production contracts.
Rolls-Royce is developing the lift fan for the vertical take-off version, and is working with its American rival, General Electric, on an alternative engine for the aircraft.
The JSF is a versatile plane aimed at replacing several types of aircraft currently in use, and could achieve total sales of more than $300 billion, according to some forecasts.
While the development is being driven by the Pentagon, it is being built by a multinational team in which Britain is the sole "Tier One� partner. The government has already provided $2 billion in development funding, and had been slated to buy 150 aircraft for the RAF and Royal Navy.
But Britain is now threatening to withdraw after rows over the Pentagon's reluctance to agree to the transfer of technology, and because of likely increases in the price of each plane.
According to senior Ministry of Defence officials, instructions have been given for alternative strategies for projects affected by American technology- transfer problems, the most important of which is the JSF.
Dropping the JSF would stun the defence industry, but a senior official told The Sunday Times it was time to "think the unthinkable�. "I know how the Americans negotiate,� said the official. "They will not do a deal unless they know the other side has a serious alternative. It's like a high-stakes poker game . . . it's essential to have a Plan B because it's very important not to travel in hope.�
The JSF was to have equipped the Royal Navy's two new aircraft carriers. The "Plan B� being worked on is a version of the Eurofighter Typhoon adapted for the navy. The Typhoon recently entered service with the RAF after long delays and cost overruns.
Defence-industry sources say negotiations on the "Tranche 3� Eurofighter contract, under which Britain will take the last 88 of the 232 orders, now encompassed the issues needed to be addressed to make the aircraft fly from a carrier.
Sources close to the Eurofighter programme say there are no major obstacles to the operation, although some elements of the carrier design would have to be changed.
BAE Systems is likely to stand behind the government's tough line on the negotiations with the Americans. The company is eager to secure more defence technology to allow it to play a full role in the JSF programme if it continues.
But Rolls-Royce could be an early casualty. Defence-industry sources in Washington said last week that the US budget row could threaten funding for the F-136 engine that it is developing in conjunction with General Electric.

At friday 18 november 05, Norwagian deputy secretary of Defense Espen Bath Eide told the press, that the government is reconsidering the participation in the JSF program.
In June'05, the Norwegians already cutback their annual contribution to the JSF by 50% and increased their investment in the further development of the Eurofighter Typhoon.
Bath Eide said that the decision for a new tactical fighter in 2008, will based on financial-economical reasons rather than foreign-political reasons.
US Deputy secretary of Defense Gordon England stated recently to his Dutch collegue Cees van der Knaap, that the Pentagon is reconsidering the JSF project.
Van der Knaap was told that the JSF program will be cut partially or totally, the final decision will be taken at the end of February 2006 by the Pentagon.
C. van der Knaap told the Dutch press, that their purchase of a new fighter will be done in 2 batches and the total number of planes will go down from 80/85 to approx 66.

The only one who will benefit from either choices are BAE as they hold stakes in all 3; Gripen, Typhoon and the F-35.

Martin, the Gripen is a very affordable and effective fighter for the money. No shame in some JAS-39C's on the ramp!
Andy, I think the UK is posturing (not that I wouldn't, too). They want full transfer of technology and control (therefor competition for LM) on their F-35's and the US is balking in making BAE any more competitive with US companies than it already is. The Typhoon is a great jet but anytime you decide to make a CV variant of a land based design it:
1) Never goes well (look at the T-45 Goshawk)
2) Never is cheap
3) Never happens quickly
A Naval Typhoon would arrive many years after a F-35C and be much more expensive (No shared R&D costs, 2 motors vice one). It sure won't be faster or cheaper for the UK, but if the US refuses to totally share (which might not be in their best interest) it might be in the UK's best interest to pay the extra to go it alone.

Damn, BAE is practically an American company anyway
Seeming as there is now a British JSF thread I'll reply to the subject there, but I can't disagree with Velvet (though I never realised there were issues with the Goshawk - not that I ever looked TBH)

For the money the Gripen is an awesome jet. From what I hear, its very reliable. So we cant blame the guys from Denmark. A few other countries are also thinking of dropping the F35.

The problem with the F-35 is it meets the A-G capabilities required by the US military, and therefore, is easy to sell here, the original target audience. However, the A-A capability of the F-35 is not what other countries are expecting for a 5th generation fighter, and every country out there has learned that you need a good air dominance fighter to maintain air superiority in a warzone. This makes some of the aero-amazing designs of foreign competetors very appetizing. IMO had they just given the F-35 TV then it would be easy to convince people to buy it. A stealth fighter that can turn on a dime. But I think many foreign governments are reluctant that stealth allone can single handidly make something a good defense fighter.

So u think that it is LO that is the only thing going for the F-35?? What about the top Notch avionics suite giving it tremendous situational awareness and Integration of avionics coupled with a 4th generation Active Radar (while the competition is slowly working its way into developing a first generation active fighter radar)...All in all the F-35 is a neet little machine even for a2a ops..Low RCS combined with a relatrivly drag free (compared to ext storage) airframe (2 9x's) and top notch avionics and radars..HMD's are a great leveler .. If people tend to give the mig-21 a fair chance against a f-15 (re cope india) with HMS and HOBS then the JSF is definately gonna get an advantage from this!!!..Looking around at its competition I see no western aircraft other then the F/a-22 that currently uses thrust vectoring (harrier aside)..None of the eurocanards have it and they seem to be doing just fine..If u want a stealth fighter that is hands down point blank a2a sniper then u do need to spend that 119 million and get the f/a-22 however if u want a stealthy airframe coupled with top notch avionics and radar and want flexibility at a price which u can afford (Relativly) then u go in for the F-35..It gives nothing away in BVR (second only to the F/a-22) while can still hold its own in WVR thx to HMS and HOBS missile (the odds of comming out alive of a WVR are not as good as it is - too many variables)...Come 2015-2020 any country using such fighters as EF typhoon , rafale , F-35 , PAKFA will/should have atleast some sort of AEW or GBR system going in for it and should atleast hold plenty of BVR assets otherwise the entire objective of getting these fighters is pointless...The entire objective of these fifth generation fighters is to make it harder and harder for the other guy to take you into the WVR regime and deal with u there..I aint saying that WVR combat is gonna get less important however comparitive to say the flanker,Eurofighter,gripen,rafale and other legacy jets the only Place where the F-35A is found wanting (relativly found wanting) is in the last regime of the episodal/transition of a2a combat which is the WVR regime...Now it is easy to say that it lacks TVC and straight up pointability however u need to get it to WVR first and lets see wether those above mentioned assets can get it there consistently (Surviving BVR (Both ways) ) ROE's aside
JSF: Integrated Avionics Par Excellence
Anyway The J-UCAS would be equiped with a new Fluidic Thrust Vectoring Nozzel (yaw only) similar and comparable to those researched in the past but only fraction of their weight and much more long lasting...Given the ammount of Viper upgrades we've esen over the years i wouldnt be a bit surprised to see such a system adopted onto the F-35 in the future...

In the above mentioned link to JSF: Integrated Avionics etc., they write about 'intuitive tactical picture on the cockpit display' and in the section "Wrapping Sensors Up" they write about 'tactical decision aids' 'planners'.
Is artificial intelligence/ expert system software applied in the F-35 and what about the F-22? In the second half of the eighties DARPA started research projects in which artificial intelligence was applied: Autonomous Land Vehicle; Battle Management System, an electronic tactician on board of aircraft carriers; and the Pilot's Associate, a 'virtual second crewmember'.
Because in those Internet Jets just 1 pilot will fly & fight in all-weather multi-role missions and he/she will deal with a flood of info.

Turning to the uber-nth degree is over-rated considering high end HOBS-helmet heater combos will be common. The nozzles are just yet one more thing that would be a maintenance task for not enough payback on the expense. Any turning ability a F-35 has.... or has not... will have to wait for real flight testing. Considering it would be doing A2A as a clean config vs a legacy jet that might or might not, have draggy stores, I don't see much of a problem. However the design indicates it will be the Buick of Stealth ( you did want a inexpensive jet did you not? )

The Danish government have announced that they are restarting the process to select the next fighter aircraft after it was put on hold back in 2010. In short they are including four candidates, namely the FA-18E/F, F-35, JAS-39 and the EuroFighter

One things is for sure, if the F-35 wins it won't mean anything. However if it loses its a indictment against the entire JSF program, and another contribution to its inevitable cancellation

By Stephanie Portes-Antoine, BS, Brandel France de Bravo, MPH, and Caroline Novas
Ovarian cancer is a deadly disease because it is rarely diagnosed early. There is not yet an effective, life-saving screening tool for the early diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
When ovarian cancer is diagnosed in the early stage-before the cancer has spread beyond the ovaries-chances of a woman's survival are very good, with about 93% of women surviving at least 5 years. Unfortunately, only 15% of cases are caught this early, because the symptoms of ovarian cancer are not obvious. For women diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer, the chances of 5-year survival drop to less than 30%. Given the dramatic differences in survival outcomes between advanced and early onset diagnosis, it is vitally important to detect ovarian cancer early.
Most women whose ovarian cancer is detected in the late stages will have a relapse (usually many times) following their initial treatment, requiring additional treatment. Recent research results have raised questions about whether the most widely used tool to screen for ovarian cancer recurrence in women who were previously diagnosed helps women live any longer. The blood test measures CA125, a protein that tends to be higher among women with ovarian cancer. In 2008, Dr. Vladimir Nosov from UCLA Medical Center and his co-authors reported that elevated levels of CA125 are found in approximately 83% of women with advanced stage ovarian cancer and 50% of patients with stage I disease.
However, other studies indicate that CA125 by itself is not sensitive enough to diagnose ovarian cancer in the very early stage of the disease, before there are there are symptoms. According to Dr. Saundra S. Buys, co-director of the Family Cancer Assessment Clinic at the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City, Utah, CA125 testing "may be appropriate to screen for ovarian cancer in women who have abdominal symptoms, but for women who have no medical symptoms, doing screening for ovarian cancer results in a lot of false-positives." "False positives are test results that inaccurately indicate the person might have cancer. Dr. Buys based her conclusions on data for women ages 55 to 75 who were participating in a large study called the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian (PLCO) cancer screening trial.
Many experts hoped that CA125 might be effective to detect relapse among women previously treated for ovarian cancer. However, at the June 2009 meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, Dr. Gordon Rustin reported that women who started chemotherapy early, based on a CA125 test result indicating relapse of ovarian cancer, did not live longer than women who did not begin treatment until symptoms of relapse appeared.
In 2011, Saundra Buys and her colleagues published the results of a randomized controlled trial of more than 78,000 women, which found that using the CA 125 blood test to screen for ovarian cancer doesn't just prevent women from dying from the disease, it actually is harmful. False positives resulted in many women having unnecessary surgery: 3,285 women received false positives and 1080 of these women underwent biopsy surgery. In 15% of cases, the unnecessary surgery caused serious complications. At the same time, there was no benefit in terms of survival of the women undergoing the test compared to those that did not.
Unfortunately, there are no better screening tools. Research is underway to evaluate whether the CA125 test can be improved or used in combination with other tests.
The bottom line: there is no reason to take a CA125 test. If you have already taken the test and your doctor is recommending treatment based on the results, be sure to get a second opinion from a doctor who does not serve as a consultant to or have other financial ties to the company that makes the test (LabCorp).

Wauwatosa policewoman shot to death on Christmas Eve
Wisconsin News-- A 30-year-old police officer was shot-to-death on Christmas Eve in the Milwaukee suburb of Wauwatosa
WAUWATOSA - A 30-year-old police officer was shot-to-death on Christmas Eve in the Milwaukee suburb of Wauwatosa.
At a mid-day news conference, she was identified as Jennifer Sebena – who joined the 'Tosa police force almost two years ago, after graduating from the police academy at Milwaukee Area Technical College. Police Lieutenant Jerry Witkowski confirmed that a homicide investigation is underway – there are no suspects – and the state Justice Department is heading up the probe.
Police knew something was wrong about three this morning – when a dispatcher tried to reach Sebena on her police radio for a call, and she didn't answer. Officers went looking for her – and they found her body around five a-m near the downtown Wauwatosa fire station. Witkowski said Sebena appeared to be wearing a safety vest – but she was still shot multiple times. He said Sebena was married, and he did not know if she had any children
