A famous Swedish author has this on his grave: Here lie the ashes of a man who had the habit to postpone everything until tomorrow. However, at the end he improved and actually died January 31 1972. (Translated with Google translate.)

Thanks Zacchia, the sequences will be looking good with LightUp texture animation.

@michaliszissiou said: Its a known conflict on WD mybook disks. If speed is not what you need try WD passport disks. Nothing bad so far (except the speed) WD MyDisks have a problematic interface. WD Studio versions as well. BTW try another power supply first. I once bought a Mybook World NAS and it was the worlds biggest piece of crap. It was extremly sloooow and refused to back up ANY files with the extension mp3 or avi and almost any other media formats. Obviously they had decided that any such files must be pirated. I returned it to the store and got a refund. Now I'm trying to avoid anything from Western Digital.

Thanks! That's super helpful! It seems that the main liability would be related to errors and omissions. The sample 3d vis contract gets around that by receiving the information in cad form from the client. I wonder if anyone has any insight on how to protect yourself if you do an on-site takeoff.

yeah ditto on the insomnia! I had a great time Boulder was definitely a best first basecamp for me to attend as its smaller size and local bar made it easier to socialize even though my hotel was a 15 min walk away. Not sure if I would like to do a basecamp in California in 2012 rather than Boulder again but who knows? I had hoped they would do one in 2011 although I dont think thats going to happen.

It's been all bloody day. I've lost business those useless bastards cannot do anything right. [image: 3JKh_emailcrap.jpg]

So wrong!

@chris fullmer said: Heh, nope. I can't help you out there. Truth is, you don't need any certification of any sort to teach SU. You just need to be able to find people who are willing to pay you money. Often times, it turns out that if you are Google Certified than people are more willing to pay you the money So getting certified is not essential, but it helps. And getting certified might depend on your country. I think it is best to contact Google and find out how they certify trainers in your country. You might find that you can hook up with the local retailer and teach people they sell SU to. (Plus some retailers might employ you as a trainer and then take a percentage of your earnings, and they will pay for your training enrollment fees, but that all dependson the retailer). But here is a link to Google's program to become a certified trainer: http://sketchup.google.com/training/program_req.html Good luck, Chris THANK YOU VERY MUCH CHRIS...U HAVE A HEART OF GOLD

Neat image. Thanks Rich.

We have a situation here in Northern Ireland where there was quite a bit of religious discrimination in the past - advertisements read "Catholics neeed not apply" very similar to the racial discrimination in the states in the 50's & 60's. Now the make up of a workplace must be similar to the local community ( 55% / 45% - Protestant / Catholic). Even the police force has had positive discrimination to bring up the number of catholics (during the troubles very few catholics joined the police force as they would have been targetted by the paramilitaries). Again - ability is being sidelined for minority promotion - I believe people should be employed on merit - not their ethnicity or religion. Northern Ireland is a superb place to live but the sectarianism is still pretty bad and these Equal Opportunity Laws provide some protection to the individual but common sense seems to have been left out of it.

Respect for the French. The have a glorious history of getting rid of people who rule them the way they don't like. The Europeans (we Dutch)are getting robbed of there pension rights ,to finance the current financial crisis. Most working Dutch have payed all there working live (min 40j) for a pension right for the elderly (100% AOW) in a state fund. Until now this gives them a right of a bare minimum income at 65 j On top of that most working people build up a private pension ,via a employee pension fund ore a insurance's company to lift there income at 65 j to 70% of there latest income. This was one off the most stable and solidarity pension systems. However at the Lisbon Treaty the EU (the Dutch voted against the EU at a referendum) have decided to level out all European pension right. The financial (banking) crisis however is used now as a excuse to strip down the solid pension systems in Europe to the level off the weak ones. I hope the French will wake up the rest off Europe, Viva la France Bep van Malde

okay, thanks guys a lot. I keep bouncing into users that never know where and how their stuff is installed and it's sometimes hard to help when one needs to stab in the dark.
