I heard on the news today that Great Britain is officially out of recession and only has 7% unemployment.  Good for them!  Hope the US follows suit shortly :)

You're right they did say that on the news today, but having watched a couple of in depth programmes with financial experts it would appear as normal it's not as good as those feeding the news channels would want us all to believe, the service sector showed a 0.1% increase over the previous quarter, what they haven't shouted much about is that the city was expecting a 0.6% increase and not forgetting that the recession was caused by a 4.8% drop in early 2009. So a simple way to look at it is take away 0.1% from 4.8% and we in the UK are still quite a way from rolling in clover.

We're due an election in May, I'd imagine there's going to be a few more happy announcements to come in the near future!

Sorry (but not especially shocked) to learn it isn't as rosy as portrayed in the news.  I was hoping some country in the western world was getting it right.


i just wish the so called experts on tv would shut up here in the UK they talked us into a recession every time the bbc expert came on tv the stock market collasped we are coming out of it ,they are now being negative again for f***k sake lets be positive and get on with it  they are so doom and gloom .

also you can use noise reducing software i use neat image and had many images accepted using this good piece of software ,ideally get it right in the camera use a tripod and the lowest iso you have got

well SS impressed me only been accepted for 3 weeks and 83 dls off 60 images not bad so my BME ,

fotoila come out 2nd then 123rf ,DT ,BigStock, fotoila took  2nd after having a bad sept  were 123rf easily beat them ,only 1 dl seprating them from 123rf for oct but 123rf brought in more cash with better priced down loads .
