A well-maintained coat and nails are more than just vanity — it's a good way to keep your pet healthy. Regular brushing reduces the amount of hair a rabbit ingests when it grooms itself, which helps prevent gastrointestinal problems. Likewise, overgrown nails are prone to getting caught on the cage bottom, carpet, rugs and other surfaces, which could cause painful tearing. Overgrown nails may also make it more difficult, and uncomfortable, for a rabbit to hop across slippery surfaces such as tile and linoleum.

Do not abuse equipment, use it only for its intended purpose. A screwdriver is not a pry bar or chisel. A wrench is not a hammer. An extension cord should not be used to suspend lights. Maintain equipment so it is always in good working order. Inspect for defects and damage before and after every use. Bends in the main supports of a light stand will weaken it. If a piece of equipment is damaged, do not use it; repair or replace as soon as possible.
When you work in a studio look around for things which may affect your safety or the safety of others. I've been in studios where someone had added wiring by stapling lamp cord to the ceiling to bring in additional power. I've seen lighting stands overextended to the point where the flash head was wobbling back and forth several inches.

Safe selection of Cosmetic Products and Tools
Always use the right tools and materials for the job. There are several threads in which people don't understand proper selection and use of materials which will be applied to the skin. For examples see body paint and What to use for writing on models Artist paints may still contain lead and other hazardous components. Lead is still allowed in artist's paints by law in the U.S. (see § 1303.3 (c)2).
Concerning safe artist paints; these are only safe when used as directed. From the Art & Creative Materials Institute, Inc. - FAQ:
Cosmetics (including body paint) usually have a vehicle or binder, a colour (pigment or dye), additives (opacifiers, preservatives) and sometimes a solvent. In the U.S. the FDA regulates cosmetic ingredients; color additives are usually the items of greatest concern. Note that even if a colour is approved for cosmetic use it must be approved for that specific use.
Here is the Health Canada webpage General Requirements for Cosmetics. The regulations are similar to the U.S.
Acrylics represent a large range of products. Many cosmetic products, including medical-grade adhesives and body paints, use acrylic components. See Preparation of an Adhesive in Emulsion for Maxillofacial Prosthetic (Int J Mol Sci. 2010; 11(10): 3906–3921) for details on developing an acrylic-based pressure-sensitive adhesive for prosthetics. Styrene/Acrylates Copolymer at Environmental Working Group's (EWG) Skin Deep Cosmetics Database and Acrylate polymer at Wikipedia (some of the acrylates in cosmetics are copolymers)
Hygiene and Sanitation
Don't apply makeup to:
• non-intact skin (non-intact skin: Areas of the skin that have been opened by cuts, abrasions, dermatitis, chapped skin, etc.)
• any mucous membrane
As soon as you try to work on either of the above areas it will open up a host of problems including storage, cleaning and use of your equipment (items used on non-intact skin and mucous membranes are semicritical items). You may run afoul of the law for doing what are termed controlled acts if you go beyond certain bounds in the application of makeup.
Makeup artists must keep their tools clean but we don't need to sterilize anything. Intact human skin is very good at keeping germs out. There are pathogens everywhere in the environment, anything that is sterilized quickly becomes non-sterile unless properly stored. When something sterile touches something non-sterile, it becomes non-sterile as well. Using powerful disinfectants, soaps, solvents or other solutions to clean brushes and other tools can cause more problems then they solve. Roughened surfaces can hold and shelter micro-organisims. Use the proper solutions to clean your brushes, following manufacturers directions. Never soak a brush in water or a cleaning a solution; it can loosen the ferrule and cause wooden handles to swell and split.
Over washing of hands can cause problems. From Hygiene of the Skin: When Is Clean Too Clean? (Emerg Infect Dis. 2001 Mar-Apr;7(2):225-30)

Therapy combo heals spinal injuries
New film chronicles Reeve's last years
Christopher D'Olier Reeve (September 25, 1952 – October 10, 2004) was an American actor, film director, producer, screenwriter and author. He achieved stardom for his acting achievements, including his notable motion picture portrayal of the fictional superhero Superman.
On May 27, 1995, Reeve became a quadriplegic after being thrown from a horse in an equestrian competition in Virginia. He required a wheelchair and breathing apparatus for the rest of his life. He lobbied on behalf of people with spinal cord injuries, and for human embryonic stem cell research afterward. He founded the Christopher Reeve Foundation and co-founded the Reeve-Irvine Research Center.
Reeve married Dana Morosini in April 1992, and they had a son, William, born that June. Reeve had two children, Matthew (born 1979) and Alexandra (born 1983), from his previous relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Gae Exton.

Flowcode allows complex AVR and Arduino programs to be designed quickly. It uses international standard flowchart symbols (ISO5807). Full on-screen simulation allows debugging and speeds up the development process. It facilitates learning via a full suite of demonstration tutorials and virtual systems (burglar alarms etc.). It can be used to teach PLC programming skills. It supports interrupts and A/D converters. It produces ASM code for a range of devices, and you can use most programmers. C code or assembly code can be embedded as a macro.
Flowcode is available with student, professional, and multi-user licenses, which you can select at the bottom of this page. Scroll down to the Different License Versions header for an overview of the differences.
Note: Some new features are available with the Professional license only. See the license option details below.
Flowcode generates a C code file from the flowchart that you create. This C code is compiled into assembler code automatically by the compiler and then translated into a Hex machine code file. Any third-party AVR programmer then can be used to download the resulting Hex file into the target AVR's program memory.
It also can generate Arduino code. Arduino devices can be selected as a target from within Flowcode and programmed directly with the command-line Arduino programming tool.
Flowcode can be used with an optional AVR Multiprogrammer or Arduino Interface Shield, integrating with the E-Blocks range of hardware devices.
Flowcode runs on Windows XP, Vista and 7. It supports code generation for the following Atmel AVR and Arduino devices:
Standard components: The Student/Home version has the following standard components: LED, LED array, Switch, Switchbank, ADC, LCD, 7-segment display, Keypad, Quad 7-segment display, and PWM. This version cannot have more components added to it as free downloads. Other versions include all standard components and a full complement of advanced components (see below).
Advanced components: In addition of the standard components of the Home/Student version, the Professional license includes the following advanced components, and supports In-Circuit Debug, Virtual Networks, and Code Customization: gLCD / touchscreen, LED RGB, CAN, CAN2, I2C master, LIN master, LIN slave, One wire, RS232 / RS485, SPI, Bluetooth, IrDA, RF, RFID, ZigBee, FAT, MIDI, USB HID, USB Serial, USB Slave, Web server, WLAN, Accelerometer, RC5, Servo, Speech, Stepper, EEPROM, GPS, GSM, Custom.
The license option below allows you to select which version of the Flowcode software you require.

Chapter 9:Hard to Forget1 Reviews
Another shorty. Sorry I just wrote this at the last minute before school.
A mixture of feeling welted inside my chest, anger and confusion and disbelief. So many things angered me, Mikey was too young, he's fucking thirteen, and she's seventeen. She's a junior and he's a freshman. No. No fucking way. She's so screwed up in the head, I don't want that crap around my little brother.
I stuck my middle finger up in the air. Frankie walked up behind me "ooh. Hot stuff" he laughed his eyes glued to my brother and Buffy across the street.
"You know. It's funny. They've been at that for almost four minutes. I didn't know my brother or that slut could hold their breath for that long" I hissed, my voice dripping with sarcasm and harshness. Frankie laughed again, my eyes never left them like I was a watchdog.
Buffy's p.o.v
I wrapped my arms around Mikey running my hands through his spiked brown hair down to his back. The kiss gave me a spark. I hadn't felt this spark in a long time, I forget what it felt like, it gave me a surge of happiness. I pulled away with my arms still snaked around his waist; he had an adorable goofy smile on his face.
"Wow." Was all he could say, I laughed, we rolled on our sides facing each other, I curled my fingers through his hair, I felt his light breath on my chest.
"I really do like you Buffy and I'll do anything for you" he said. Another cry welt up in my chest. That was the same thing Caleb said to me when we were eleven years old. I closed my eyes trying to keep away the tears; some of the tears must've leaked out because Mikey sat up "I'm sorry"
"No Mikey, it's not your fault" I said just letting the tears flow now "my boyfriend..." the rest of it was drowned out by my sob. Mikey held me close to him, so close I could feel his warm breath, and I cried into his arms.
"It's okay Buffy, I'm here for you, and I'm not leaving" he coaxed. "But tell me what's wrong" I told him everything that has happened in the last two years. How I lost my boyfriend. My mother. Having to move away from my best and only friend back home in Maryland . Everything.
"God I'm so screwed in the head" I finished. Mikey held me tighter.
"No you aren't. You're perfect. We've all had hard times. Maybe….if you had another boyfriend it'd make you forget Caleb." I know what Mikey was trying to ask me, I knew him too good now, I hugged him.
"I love you too Mikey" I said kissing him again, but it'll be hard to forget

|Bela Ban
|Stable release
|3.5.0.Final / August 29, 2014
|Development status
|Written in
|Operating system
|reliable multicast system
|GNU Lesser General Public License
JGroups is a reliable multicast system written in the Java language.
JGroups adds a "grouping" layer over a transport protocol, internally keeping a list of participants. This list is used to:
- Make the application aware of the listeners
- Make some or all transmissions reliable
- Allow totally ordered transmissions
JGroups is a toolkit for reliable multicast communication. It can be used to create groups of processes whose members can send messages to each other. JGroups enables developers to create reliable multipoint (multicast) applications where reliability is a deployment issue. JGroups also relieves the application developer from implementing this logic themselves. This saves significant development time and allows for the application to be deployed in different environments without having to change code.
JGroups Features[edit]
- Group creation and deletion. Group members can be spread across LANs or WANs
- Joining and leaving of groups
- Membership detection and notification about joined/left/crashed members
- Detection and removal of crashed members
- Sending and receiving of member-to-group messages (point-to-multipoint)
- Sending and receiving of member-to-member messages (point-to-point)
Flexible Protocol Stack[edit]
The most powerful feature of JGroups is its flexible protocol stack, which allows developers to adapt it to exactly match their application requirements and network characteristics. The benefit of this is that you only pay for what you use. By mixing and matching protocols, various differing application requirements can be satisfied. JGroups comes with a number of protocols (but anyone can write their own), for example
- Transport protocols: UDP (IP Multicast), TCP, JMS
- Fragmentation of large messages
- Reliable unicast and multicast message transmission. Lost messages are retransmitted
- Failure detection: crashed members are excluded from the membership
- Ordering protocols: Fifo, Causal, Total Order (sequencer or token based)
- Membership
- Encryption

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Jfofla: You're right, stories are inherently linear. However, you CAN have both ways by having one-off quests that don't relate to the main storyline, it doesn't have to be all or nothing. You can have the main storyline of a zone be, say, 70-ish quests long, that'll generally give you 30 quest wiggling room for side stories or one-off quest. While the main storyline tackles the big bad of the zone, side stories could include poop quests given by someone who doesn't really care about what's happening, or shorter questlines about less epic things like reuniting person A with person B or whatnot.
Questing in vanilla didn't have an overarching storyline and so felt disjointed and lacked focus. Questing in Cataclysm felt too rigid, where you HAD to go from Point A to Point B, even if Point A's area sucked.
You can have a main quest with players going from A to B, with other quests sprinkled around points C, D, E, and F.

Justin Bieber must have eaten some bad empanadas in Argentina ... 'cause the singer just revealed he's got food poisoning.
Biebs dropped the crappy news on Twitter Sunday evening, but quickly assured fans his sour gut would not result in any canceled concerts ... at all.
It's one more piece of bummer news for Justin whose current Central and South American tour has been plagued with issues -- like destructive fans, fake hookers, graffiti tickets and hotel problems.
Good thing Pepto-Bismol is global.
Now he knows how his music makes the rest of us feel.
trying to be straight is sooo hard for him.
O.o is she pregnant? lol
Great! We might get another video of Bieber throwing up on stage so his crazy fans will go: "Poor Justin, to perform against all odds!" Lol!
Too much Usher Gusher. This kid is hard core thug.
Now there's another big controversy and more justice problems for Justin in Argentina, one of his bodyguards punched a photographer and now he can't leave the country with Justin and the rest of the team, here's the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X83MWr00rIQ&feature=youtu.be
Bad Ejaculate
I finally figured out something nice I can say about Bieber. At least he will go out and perform for his fans even when sick, unlike Kanye who acts like a baby and cancels a concert because his big TV broke.
That's crap. When you have diarrhea, you can't perform, actually, you can't even have sex, no matter how quick it lasts. That's unless.................You are like HumanNature, who is fascinated by Dr. Murray's diarrhea, and still peeps into his can, once a day!!!
Biebber is calling. He will convert you into a Beliber once you have smelled his diarrhea!!!!
How much did they pay you to not write about the brothel incident and photos?????
Montezuma's Revenge. Brilliant!
He got busted running out of a Brazilian whore house with a bed sheet over his head. Then tried to say some other freak who took video of him was not the whore your looking for.........
These aren't the droid you're looking for.....
Guess he ate too msny lil twistlers
Lol why are haters so gay? I can't hear you guys with dick in your mouth. Take your own advice and don't swallow it's making you all look like bitter gays.
Not to be mean, but seeing that other picture of him straining so hard to do pullups. Justin could have strained himself in the tummy area.

Also worth mentioning, at bare minimum you need to be running 245s on those. Any smaller and you're looking at the wrong size wheel.
Aggressive fitment is actually bad for cars. It reduces steering response, tire contact patch, makes steering more difficult, increases tramlining (wheels will wander around the road), and reliability of the suspension (it puts extra strain on parts). The people who run wheels like these for looks have no business modifying cars. My personal suggestion would be a set of 17x8.5 or 18x8.5s in a ~+45 offset. If you have to get those wheels, get the +42s.
Damn bro..subbie most b wonderful!! Question..I'm untreated in purchasing some 17x9 rota dpt bronze rims..they give me the option of an offset of 35 and 42..I'm running on a fullcoilover sytem from buddy club and well I want my bug eye to have thy aggresive look with the new wheels!! Any suggestions!!

Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (c. 1525 – 2 February 1594) was an Italian Renaissance composer of sacred music and the best-known 16th-century representative of the Roman School of musical composition. He has had a lasting influence on the development of church music, and his work has often been seen as the culmination of Renaissance polyphony.

Harness Social Media to Win Site Visitors
There is a saying: "You can never be too rich or too thin." If you want to utilize your website to help make you rich, however, you might think you have to spread yourself thin in order to achieve maximum exposure.

When the focus shifts further from Search Engine Optimization to Social Media Optimization, will you know what to do?

SEO is an evergreen process - website owners will always rely on optimization to bring customers to their products, yet there are many things one can do off-site to improve a brand's visibility and relevance. Social media optimization defines the use of new portals and sites designed to bring people of common interests together, and companies have recognized the marketing potential for such sites. At CINIVA, part of our higher-end SEO packages includes maintenance and development of your brand and products via social media exposure.
MySpace, YouTube, Flickr, del.icio.us, Facebook, Twitter, Squidoo...every day it seems more of these social media portals are attracting the attention of Web users, media, and companies alike. Like the weblogs and message boards before them, social networking sites offer Internet users the opportunity to meet like-minded people and share ideas, pictures, and conversation. These networks also provide businesses the opportunity to find the people who may interested in their products, as well as boost the link popularity of their main websites and draw potential customers and subscribers to become regular visitors of their sites as well. When you sign on with CINIVA for our premium SEO package, you have the option of customizing a social media presence as it suits your business. Want to attract a specific demographic to sell your items? We will tailor your SEO to find the right network.

Brownian motion has been constructed in different ways. Einstein was the most outstanding physicists involved in its construction. From a physical point of view a dynamical theory of Brownian motion was favorable. The Ornstein‐Uhlenbeck process models such a dynamical theory and E. Nelson amongst others derived Brownian motion from Ornstein‐Uhlenbeck theory via a scaling limit. In this paper we extend the scaling result to α‐stable Lévy processes.

Over recent years, the growing interest and demand in Islamic Banking products have prompted many 'big name' banks to begin offering Shariah compliant products.
Hence, in addition to the standard reporting to the regional regulator (e.g. UK FCA), banks offering Islamic Banking products must also report that the Islamic product transactions and activities are in compliance with Islamic principles as approved by the Shariah Committee, Islamic Financial Services Board (IFSB), Accounting and Auditing Organisations for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI).

A Contrastive Study of Brand Names in English and Chinese
A brand is shown by a name, a word, a sign, a symbol, a design or a combination of them. It is intended to identify the products or services of one seller or group of sellers and to differentiate them from those of competitors. For the good brand has the functions of distinguishing, providing information of products and being symbol of credit , the good brand has a good advertisement for the product and help to take in a larger market .
Most brand names in Chinese are in the form of Chinese characters or Pinyin. In the West sense of individuality is very prevailing. What's more, the companies usually belong to individuals, thus the personal names or surnames are used in brand names. On the contrary, Confucianism is the main stream in traditional Chinese culture which underlines hospitality and harmony, and belittles individualism. It is very important to select a brand name in the present-day brand competitive world. Several skills are employed in translating brand names. Among them are transliteration, paraphrase and complementary translation. The translation is deemed a success as long as it can provoke the consumers' good association and their desires for purchasing the products.

The Copenhagen Wheel is Here
Posted on 09. Dec, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
Way back when, in 2009, I wrote about a new product that had recently been unveiled at the Copenhagen Climate Conference called the Copenhagen Wheel. The product, designed by a team at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was being promoted as one of many solutions to mitigate the impacts of climate change – through cycling, of course.
Fast forward 4 years to the present, and the Copenhagen Wheel is finally making its "official" debut and product release. The product idea is still the same, an electric assist wheel that can be added to any bike, but it's gotten a number of neat upgrades in the last few years, including some neat apps that sync with your smartphone. We can't have technology these days that doesn't involve a smartphone in some way.
Anyhow, check out more in the video below or visit the official website of the Copenhagen Wheel at Superpedestrian.
What do you think of the Copenhagen Wheel? Is this a viable climate change mitigation tool?

Biking & Walking to School in Portland
Posted on 22. Nov, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
In Portland, OR, biking and walking are fun and ordinary ways for kids and parents to get to and from schools. Streetfilms recently did a feature on biking and walking to school in Portland, and it's pretty darn impressive to see so many smiling happy kids (and parents) locking up bikes and getting ready for the day. For those who already commute by bike, you too know how much better it can make your day to ride or walk. So imagine growing up in an environment where biking and walking just are, well, just normal. Portland has done a lot to make this a reality, and it's pretty cool to see it paying off. Learn more about what they've done in the video below. What does your city do to either encourage, or even discourage, walking or biking to school?

Full Circle: Carbon Fiber Penny Farthing Concept Bike
Posted on 01. Nov, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
I must admit, this video made me burst out laughing! The question posed in the opening scene, "What would the first pedal cycle have looked like if its inventors had had today's advanced materials to work with?" is utterly ridiculous. But I supposed it sets up what follows appropriately. The video is all about a concept e-bike that is made almost entirely of plastics and looks like a penny farthing. The bike actually looks to have some pretty cool features like a watch to lock it up with, a removable seat where the battery is housed, integrated lights, and more. Plus, the story line for the video is extremely entertaining. Anyhow, take two minutes to learn about the Concept 1865 bike from BASF, if not for the humor, then at least for the concept.

Documentary: A Winter of Cyclists
Posted on 18. Oct, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
Winter cycling. That's something that never struck me with fear, or shivers, when I lived in Tucson, AZ. But now that I've moved up north to one of the USA's cities in the top 15 for lowest average temperatures and top 5 for highest average snowfall in a year, I'm definitely a little scared. And shivering. I'm in Flagstaff, AZ, now, and while most might not think of Arizona as a state with anything but cactus and sun, we do have our fair share of high mountains, cold weather, and that white stuff. So needless to say, I'm going to have to start rethinking the possibilities of cold weather riding and certainly pushing my desert-spoiled limits. Fortunately, the documentary, A Winter of Cyclists by ChainRingFilms.com, which documents a group of cyclists who agree to ride through an entire Colorado winter, is sure to get me motivated. You can check out the trailer below or rent the full film on Vimeo.

Treehouse Elevator by Bike
Posted on 20. Sep, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
Well here's a new one for the archives of Utility Cycling – a bicycle powered treehouse elevator. There are so many things about this that are just right. For one, the treehouse. Who wouldn't want to live in, or at least sleep in, a treehouse? Two, the bicycle-powered lift system. Because climbing an elevator "six and a half million times a day" isn't so awesome, but pedaling a up a tree is. Also, did I mention there's a treehouse? Anyhow, the video below shows Ethan Schlussler's amazing treehouse bicycle lift system, which he rigged up as a means to get up to the treehouse that he intends to live or "at least sleep" in. What a cool way to use your bike, Ethan!

More on Riding with Rail Tracks
Posted on 06. Sep, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
It seems that the City of Tucson really got in the spirit of last week's post about Riding with Rail Tracks. That, or you know, the timing was good. But anyhow, Tucson Velo shared a video this week put out by the City of Tucson about how to navigate the new streetcar lines. The video has tips for all traffic users, but notably, a great deal of emphasis is given to cyclists.
I think the video has some great tips, but I think it glosses over some of the challenges faced by cyclists, pedestrians, and motorists alike when navigating the streetcar tracks in addition to dealing with regular traffic. The narrator makes it seem like everything is just peachy, but really, it does take a fair bit of practice to get comfortable with the streetcar tracks from numerous perspectives. I would also add, that for a PSA, it's quite long. I would doubt that very many people would watch the video in its entirety. What do you think? Is this an effective way to teach people how to navigate the roads with the new streetcar?

Riding with Rail Tracks
Posted on 29. Aug, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
I was looking through some of the recent Streetfilms Shorties, when I found this recent video "Cyclists vs. Rails in Zurich". What is most notable about this video is the way cyclists in Zurich navigate a very extensive system of rail lines laid into the roads. In fact, as the video notes, there are very few crashes or issues with cyclists and the rail lines.
Coming from Tucson, AZ, I found this very interesting. Tucson is in the process of building a modern streetcar, and there have already been numerous incidents between cyclists and the rail lines. And the streetcar isn't even running yet! The first one shipped earlier this week. I'm not sure what it is exactly that contributes to the copacetic vibe between cyclists and the streetcar in Zurich, but hopefully this can also become the case in Tucson.
I'll leave this with the number one tip for riding streetcar tracks: always hit the tracks with your wheel as perpendicularly as possible! And happy rail crossing!

Bike Lane Experiences
Posted on 23. Aug, 2013 by Melanie Colavito.
This shortie from Streetfilms came out in the spring, but I felt it was appropriate to post it now. I recently moved from one Bicycle Friendly City to another, and it has been interesting to compare my experiences bike commuting in the two cities. I came from Tucson, AZ, which is a gold level city (and a big city) and am now living in Flagstaff, AZ, which is a silver level city (and a smallish city). In fact, I did the reverse move of the folks at Bike Shop Hub and Commute by Bike – you can read some of Commute by Bike's experiences in Tucson here.
Anyhow, Tucson, although it sometime requires long commutes and excessive sweating, is one of the best cities I've had the pleasure of riding in, be it for utility or sport. I was definitely spoiled by all of the bike lanes and infrastructure there. Flagstaff is also a great town for many types of riding, but in comparison to Tucson, I find myself missing the miles and miles of connected bike lanes I had grown accustomed to. That being said, the weather couldn't be better in Flagstaff (for now), there has been tons of great work done on the Flagstaff Urban Trails System in recent years, and the bike infrastructure just keeps coming!
So in the spirit of Flagstaff bike commuting, check out the video below, in which Flagstaff makes a brief appearance! Now, if only I can learn to adjust to the cold like I was adjusted to the heat…

I'm a little late to the party on this one, but about a month ago, Streetsblog posted a video from Bicycle Dutch that criticizes many elements of bicycling and bicycle infrastructure in the U.S. Now, before you get too huffy, the critique is quite fair in many ways and speaks to the dramatic differences between the experiences of cyclists in the U.S. and those in much of Europe and especially places like The Netherlands or Denmark.
In the U.S., as the video's narrator points out, cyclists are forced to ride with a lot of motorized traffic, which contributes to the feeling that everyone is racing around. On the other hand, in Denmark, most bike infrastructure is separated from traffic and the general feel is much more relaxed. However, the video does end on a positive note with some predictions for a good future for cycling in the U.S. I agree, and as more and more bike infrastructure goes into U.S. cities, cycling will improve, but there is plenty of work to be done!
