The positioning member is engaged with the lock portion when the second slide member is moved relative to the first slide member, and is disengaged from the lock portion when the third slide member is retracted relative to the second slide member.
|SLIDING MECHANISM AND SLIDING DEVICE - An object of the present invention is to provide a sliding mechanism with which when a state of two connected members is changed to a plurality of states by sliding, the state can be changed from an arbitrary state to another arbitrary state without passing through the other state. The sliding mechanism of the present invention is disposed between a first member and a second member and includes a body to be guided arranged on the first member and a guide body arranged on the second member and guides the body to be guided. The guide body includes an annular guide groove which guides the body to be guided. The guide groove is a groove section composed of at least three sides including an arc-shaped side and a linear side.
|Shielding, Particulate Reducing High Vacuum Components - A method of forming a gate valve for use in a high vacuum environment of an electron gun by machining a core of non-magnetic nickel-chromium-molybdenum-iron-tungsten-silicon-carbon alloy that is weldable with nickel alloys and has a tensile strength of about 750 megapascals, machining a cladding of nickel-iron, welding the core to the cladding to form the gate valve, and machining the gate valve so as to remove any dimensional differences at an interface between the core and the cladding. In this manner, because the final mechanical tolerance is controlled by machining instead of part assembling, extremely high alignment accuracy is obtained. The final part provides field shielding as provided by the nickel alloy shell, low stray field provided by the non-magnetic alloy, good vacuum performance, and tight mechanical tolerance control. Also, because the alloy has the advantage of a low oxidation rate in comparison to stainless steel and titanium, there is less contamination buildup due to conditions such as electron beam bombardment.
|Fluid Servo and Applications - A fluid pressure operated actuator device, comprising: a body defining a first chamber (
|SLIDE APPARATUS, TILTING MECHANISM AND SLIDE TYPE EQUIPMENT USING THE SAME - Disclosed is a slide apparatus for a personal portable terminal having a first body and a second body which is slidably displaceable on the first body. The slide apparatus includes a guide member on which at least a pair of guiding parts are spaced apart from each other; and a slide member having at least a pair of guided parts coupled with the respective guiding parts so as not to be derailed in a direction perpendicular to the guide member and displaceable along the same, wherein the slide member is displaceable along the guide member, and wherein the guiding part includes guide surfaces for guiding the opposite sides of the guided part.
|SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INTERACTION BETWEEN SURFACES - A system and method for reducing interaction between surfaces (
|BEARINGS - In some embodiments, a bearing includes a substrate having a first portion and a second portion thicker than the first portion, the second portion having a curved outer contour. The bearing can further include a first layer on the outer contour of the substrate and/or a second layer on an inner contour of the substrate.

Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
Hello and thanks for your question.
In my experience, if it is a true eye allergy, then Pataday works remarkably well for most people. Do the eyes itch? The hallmark symptom of allergies in the eyes is eye itching, usually worse in the corners of the eyes, and often becomes quite intense. Allergies in the eyes can also cause swelling of the eyelids, burning, tearing, and produce a white, stringy mucus that often acts ropy when it is removed from the eyes.
However, if there is no significant eye itching, I would suspect that your symptoms are not due to eye allergies, but rather to a tear film problem such as dry eyes and/or blepharitis. In these cases, using artificial tears 4x/day for a few weeks as well as using hot compresses in both eyes in the morning for 5-10 minutes often times produces significant results. It may seem backwards to think that the eyes can be dry when they tear so much, but often the tearing is a reflex tearing as a result of the dry eyes and the reflex tearing is not sufficient to hydrate the eyes significantly.
Does that make sense and does that help address your concerns?
Do you have any other questions about this that I can help you with?
I am happy to be able to help you today. If you would be so kind, please help me get credit for my efforts in answering your questions by pressing the ACCEPT button for this encounter; this allows the funds that the JustAnswer website has collected from you in the form of a deposit to be released and allotted to me in return for helping you with your question.

The Queensland Competition Authority (QCA) has found Unitywater
is undercharging its customers by approximately $57 million – or
the equivalent of more than $200 per household – in
The findings were detailed in the independent regulator's Interim Price Monitoring Report released on 3 April.
The report also found that Unitywater made efficiencies in its forecasted operating costs for 2011-12 and that revenues from non-capped charges, such as trade waste, fell despite their increasing operating costs for the water retailer.
Unitywater CEO Jon Black said that while the company was currently under-recovering from its customers, he was very conscious of the pain many families were feeling from bills. He was keen to keep driving down operating costs while continuing to provide high-quality, environmentally and economically sustainable water and sewerage services.
"Unitywater is currently under-recovering on its costs and this does present a challenge for our long term sustainability and returns to the owner councils. However we believe we are responsibly managing this challenge and remain mindful of the impacts rising costs have on our customers," Mr Black said.
The QCA compared Unitywater's forecasted earnings from water and sewerage services against the maximum allowable revenue (MAR), according to an estimate of the 'efficient cost of providing services'.
Unitywater's forecast revenue for 2011-12 was $398.4 million, while the QCA found $455.3 million was the maximum allowable figure.
Of this, the forecast water revenue of $195.7 million was below the authority's MAR of $238.8, while forecast sewerage revenue of $202.7 million was below the authority's MAR of $216.4 million.
The report said there was no evidence of an exercise of monopoly power and found Unitywater's $268.73 million capital expenditure to be prudent and efficient.
The authority also expressed support for Unitywater's efforts 'to seek collaborative and cost-effective solutions for maximising water quality improvement and achieving healthy waterways'.
Unitywater provides water supply and sewerage services to the Sunshine Coast and Moreton Bay regions and is wholly-owned by the Councils of those regions.

Digimon Rumble Arena 2
Review by omgawdiknouhax
"Need a break from Melee?"
When the first Digimon rumble arena came out for playstation, I tried it out and did not like it at all. The game had a wide selection of playable characters to choose from but just wasn't fun to play once you beat it. Then there is Digimon Rumble arena 2, or DRA2, is just like the first one except that they now include many more different options to play.
The gameplay for this game was fairly simple. Pushing down the special button while holding the control stick in a certain direction will perform a special attack for each digimon. That means that each digimon will have 3 moves that they and only they can perform. Considering this is based on the anime only this game will have digimon digivolving into their assigned digivolutions that they follow in the anime. Digivolution is one of the important ways to win, but to digivolve you to attack the opponent and collect the blue orbs that fly out when you hit them. Think of it as a pinata, the more things fall out, the more happy you get. There is also a new digivolution setup. Instead of the original 2 digivolutions there are now 3 different forms. The range of characters to play as has also increased along with the different playing areas.
The gameplay though, does get a little boring after a while, which will bring the score down a little.
Score: 9.5/10
The sound for this game wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The digimon voices though, were far off from what the actors sounded like in the anime. Whenever you hit someone it would sound exactly the same. The specials attacks had different sounds with each move which made it fell slightly better. The music fit in the level design very well though.
Score: 8/10
The graphics in the game aren't that bad as far as the digimon go, but the level detail could have been a little better. The attacks look like they were rushed and almost all the ultra moves look similar.
Score: 8/10
Replay Value
Although gaining the characters were easy, getting all the modes and 4 extra characters was time consuming. The extras would pop up randomly in single player mode, forcing you to win them to get them.
Score: 6.5/10
If you have some friends that are either hardcore digimon fans or you want a break from SSBM, this game will give you a good feel. My advice, buy it if your into fun 4 player action, or rent it if you don't feel like blowing your money.
Final Score: 8/10
Reviewer's Rating: 4.0 - Great

Local experts warn against fertility tourism
Fertility experts are warning that a dramatic increase in the availability of fertility treatments in the developing world has not been matched by clinical and safety standards.
Australia's Fertility Society says one in six couples cannot conceive within a year.
Many then look for assistance through in-vitro fertilisation (IVF), and some couples go to the extreme step of heading overseas for medical treatment.
The International Federation of Fertility Societies today released the results of a three-year study that found a wide variation in international laws relating to IVF and assisted reproduction.
The report says one-third of the 103 nations surveyed with IVF services operate without legislative or voluntary guidelines.
Professor Michael Chapman, the head of women's and children's health at the University of New South Wales, says he suspects less than 500 Australian couples go overseas out of tens of thousands who receive IVF treatment.
"The services are really catering to that group that can afford it," he said.
"But because it's not legislated, there are practices going on there which we in Australia and most western countries would not support: paying donors and making sex selection available," he said.
"There are countries [where] you can do what you like basically, as an IVF service, through to Belgium for instance where it is legislated that you shall not put more than one embryo back or you won't receive your Medicare rebate."
In the developing world there has been a boom in reproductive technology services.
Africa's most populous country, Nigeria, has 20 clinics, and in India there are now over 500 centres providing IVF services.
Professor Chapman says unless an Australian couple has a friend or relative prepared to donate an egg or sperm, there is little chance of finding a donor.
"For sex selection, they may go to Thailand or India where it's not banned, and for donor insemination, there are countries where donors are available because they are prepared to pay donors and it is legal to do so," he said.
"For instance, I mean, surprisingly, in a very Catholic country like Spain, it is legal to pay a donor, a female, to donate eggs, and so they have no shortage of eggs for egg donation."
He says there is huge variation in the quality of services and what people want to claim.
"I would be very nervous about many of the services that are advertising on the internet for the purposes of attracting business," he said.
Australia is one of the few countries in which IVF and other reproduction technologies are self-regulated.
But Professor Chapman says he thinks it is unlikely it will soon be regulated by government.
"I think our track record is exceptional," he said.
"We have the lowest rate of multiple births in ART (assisted reproductive technology) in the world, despite other countries where legislation has attempted to control that.
"We are actually lower than that because doctors and patients see the logic of only having a single pregnancy."
International fertility groups are now developing a code of practice on cross-border reproductive care.
Representatives say it will lay out a set of rules that protects and reassures patients, donors, surrogates and future children.
Topics: reproductive-technology, health, reproduction-and-contraception, fertility-and-infertility, australia

Two days ago, I went to an elementary school for a career day. I went to give a presentation about Latinitas. To my surprise I found out that most of the kids didn't know what the term "Latino/a" means.
Some kids said that "Latina" is a singer or an actress. I found that this was interesting because the elementary school that I went to is composed approximately of 95% Latinos.
Also, I asked the children if they could name a Latino or Latina that is on the media and some of their top answers were:
I wonder whose fault is it for not teaching the children that they are Latinos. Is it the teacher's fault for not proving that information? Or is it the fault of the parents for not educating their kids?

The Sandy Bridge Review: Intel Core i7-2600K, i5-2500K and Core i3-2100 Testedby Anand Lal Shimpi on January 3, 2011 12:01 AM EST
General Performance: SYSMark 2007
Our journey starts with SYSMark 2007, the only all-encompassing performance suite in our review today. The idea here is simple: one benchmark to indicate the overall performance of your machine. SYSMark 2007 ends up being more of a dual-core benchmark as the applications/workload show minimal use of more than two threads.
The 2600K is our new champion, the $317 chip is faster than Intel's Core i7 980X here as SYSMark 2007 doesn't really do much with the latter's extra 2 cores. Even the 2500K is a hair faster than the 980X. Compared to the Core i5 750, the upgrade is a no brainer - Sandy Bridge is around 20% faster at the same price point as Lynnfield.
Compared to Clarkdale, the Core i3 2100 only manages a 5% advantage howeer.
Adobe Photoshop CS4 Performance
To measure performance under Photoshop CS4 we turn to the Retouch Artists' Speed Test. The test does basic photo editing; there are a couple of color space conversions, many layer creations, color curve adjustment, image and canvas size adjustment, unsharp mask, and finally a gaussian blur performed on the entire image.
The whole process is timed and thanks to the use of Intel's X25-M SSD as our test bed hard drive, performance is far more predictable than back when we used to test on mechanical disks.
Time is reported in seconds and the lower numbers mean better performance. The test is multithreaded and can hit all four cores in a quad-core machine.
Once again, we have a new king - the 2600K is 9.7% faster than the 980X in our Photoshop CS4 test and the 2500K is just about equal to it. The Core i3 2100 does much better compared to the i3 540, outpacing it by around 30% and nearly equaling the performance of AMD's Phenom II X6 1100T.

usernamehere - Monday, January 03, 2011 - linkSure, if you're building a desktop you can find plenty with USB 3.0 support (via NEC). But if you're looking for a laptop, most will still not have it. For the fact that manufacturers don't want to have to pay extra for features, when they usually get features via the chipsets already included. Asus is coming out with a handful of notebooks in 2011 with USB 3.0 (that I know of), but wide-spread adoption will not be here this year. Reply
JarredWalton - Monday, January 03, 2011 - linkMost decent laptops will have USB3. ASUS, Dell, HP, Clevo, and Compal have all used the NEC chip (and probably others as well). Low-end laptops won't get USB3, but then low-end laptops don't get a lot of things. Reply
TekDemon - Monday, January 03, 2011 - linkEven the netbooks usually have USB 3.0 these days and those almost all use intel atom CPUs. The cost to add the controller is negligible for large manufacturers. USB is not going to be the deciding factor for purchases. Reply
DanNeely - Monday, January 03, 2011 - linkAre you sure about that? Newegg lists 99 netbooks on their site. Searching for USB 3 within netbooks returns 0 products. Reply
TekDemon - Monday, January 03, 2011 - linkYour claims are pretty silly seeing as how USB came about in the same way that Light Peak did-Intel invented USB and pushed it to legacy ports like PS/2, and slowly phased out support for the older ones entirely over the years. It makes no sense for them to support USB 3.0, especially without a real market of devices.
But motherboard manufacturers will support USB 3.0 via add-in chips. I don't see how this anti-competitive at all, why should intel have to support a format it doesn't think makes sense? So far USB 3.0 hasn't really shown speeds close to it's theoretical, and the only devices that really need the higher bandwidth are external drives that are better off being run off E-SATA anyways. There's no real "killer app" for USB 3.0 yet.
BTW Light Peak will easily support adding power to devices, so it definitely does not need USB in order to provide power. There'll just be two wires running alongside the fiber optics. Reply
DanNeely - Tuesday, January 04, 2011 - linkThe eSata + USB (power) connector has never gone anywhere, which means that eSata devices need at least 2 cables to work. Flash drives and 2.5" HDs don't need enough power to require an external brick, and 80-90% of eSata speed is still much better than the USB2 bottleneck. With double the amount of power over USB2, USB3 could theoretically be used to run 3.5" drives with a double socket plug freeing them from the wall as well. Reply

I'm confused, however. The fist paragraph talks of 4.1Ghz turbo mode and the chart on page 2 lists 3.8Ghz as the max for the 2600K. Is the chart talking about 4-core turbo or what? Reply

Leslie West of the 70's Classic Rock Band Mountain Lost Part of His Leg
West remains in serious condition, a spokesman said yesterday morning.
"Mr. Weinstein is in serious, but stable condition," said Richard Lucas, vice president of communications for Singing River Health System.
West, who was born Leslie Weinstein in 1945, came through surgery successfully Monday to amputate his right leg at the knee due to complications from diabetes.
"Leslie West is expected to fully recover, and faces extensive rehabilitation," Karas said. "The family has requested that the public and media respect his privacy while he comes to terms with this life-changing transition."
Now the ironic part…
Not to make light of Leslie's situation, but I can't help but point out the irony of the fact that Leslie may have to perform from a wheelchair in the future…just like the cover of an album he put out in 2005 called "Guitarded."
The cover art is a play on the blue and white handicapped parking sign…except that the stick figure in the wheelchair is holding a guitar.
Here's the cover:
Like I said…ironic.

According to The Detroit News, the group, called Protect Private Property Rights in Michigan-Amend Michigan Smoking Ban, has about 3,000 members. It plans to register as an official nonprofit and also hire a lobbyist to help fight the smoking ban.
"Small independent bars are really suffering. Some say they are being forced to close their doors," said Lance Binoniemi, executive director of the Michigan Licensed Beverage Association, in The Detroit News report.
The Michigan smoking ban targets establishments that serve food and drink only. Cigar bars, tobacco shops and casinos are exempt.

Today at the SharePoint Summit in Montreal, I am presenting a session on Silverlight and SharePoint. As a part of this session, I am announcing the release of a project that my team and I have been working on over the past few months. I am announcing the release of the SharePoint 2010 Extensibility Projects for Visual Studio 2010: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/vsixforsp.
These project templates leverage the extensibility model for Visual Studio 2010 to provide you with some augmented capabilities for SharePoint development. Specifically, they provide three extensibility templates:
1. Silverlight Web Part
2. SharePoint Ribbon
3. OBA Deployment
The Silverlight Web Part enables you to build friction-free Web parts that host Silverlight applications. All of the plumbing is wired up for you, and you even have some default code spit to get you started.
The OBA Deployment template enables you to create custom Office documents (using VSTO) and then automatically deploy these as a content type to a document library. It's a great way to very easily get custom templates to your users.
Each module includes a VSIX file, short video walkthrough of how to use the templates, and a help document with some additional information in it.
Thanks to Paul Stubbs and Donovan Follette for helping drive this. We will rev these with a number of improvements for the SharePoint launch timeframe.
I hope you get some use out of these, and I hope these inspire you to create your own custom Visual Studio extensions for SharePoint 2010.
Happy coding!

I can see us being 50 games deep in the season and still talking about Hibbert:"Roy is coming out of his offensive slump any time now"...

http://espnmediazone.com/us/press-re...e-documentary/Bowie on being examined by Portland prior to 1984 NBA Draft: I can still remember them taking a little mallet, and when they would hit me on my left tibia, and I dont feel anything I would tell em. But deep down inside, it was hurting. If what I did was lying and what I did was wrong, at the end of the day, when you have loved ones that have some needs, I did what any of us would have done.
Did you see D'Antoni's interview?Cracking up already?
5 games is a slump. 10 games is maybe a slump. The season is a quarter over. It's time to start accepting the player we have, and stop dreaming about the player we wish we had.
Wow, what an amazing play by Jarret Jack. Great pass and great composure
great play call and great decoy in Klay Thompson mis-communication by Allen and Battier.
Warriors are a really good team
Jack is a super sub hell of a move to trade for him by the W's
Warrios beat the Heat in Miami. They seem legit. I actually feel better about our loss to them earlier in the season
I know it's still early but the top 9 teams in the East are all solid, and the 4-9 are all pretty close in the play-off run, it'll be interesting to see what happens as Indiana is currently 9th and a game behind bucks. Those losses to the bottom teams will come back to bite.
He certainly has a better season. But as you said, he isn't on another level.
They are comparable players with comparable contracts. If some people feel that Marc is underpaid, I'm not going to disagree with them. I'm just gonna disagree with the overpaid notion
Good job by my boy Reggie Jackson tonight looks like he may be back in the rotation. He is better than Maynor and glad he is playing again after Maynor "beat him out"(which he didn't Jackson out played him). Solid defense and is improving his pg skills.

The Mavs are using Shawn Marion as a Center late in the 4th against the Celtics
And it's not only that Marion is actually playing Center. Vince Carter is playing Power Forward. And want to guess which is the Mavs' Small Forward in overtime? It's Derek Fisher
Fisher fouled out and Dahntay Jones came in.
He straight up blocked Paul Pierce in the last play of the OT. Double OT it is.
Mayo is still killing it, damn.
Then again both teams look gassed.
I cannot believe what Marion did there
PS: And here's Dahntay with the almost "pull the chair" attempt.
DC lol
Oh, DC
On second thought, why was everyone running away from DC?
Shawn Marion at center? Vince Carter at PF? Derek Fisher at SF? Who's really coaching that team, Rick or JOB?
To be honest, no team even attempted to go for an offensive board. Also, Marion seemed able to cover Garnett so it worked out. But it still was quite lol-worthy

Field Reports1 Sep, 2004 By: Thomas Haire, Nicole Urso Reed Response
The announcement comes as part of an ongoing relationship between NATPE and the ITA. The ITA annual meeting will now be co-located at the NATPE 2005, the association's annual event to be held in Las Vegas next January.
"As TV programming becomes increasingly interactive, our members will want to explore the new revenue streams provided by the new technologies. An alignment with the ITA is a shortcut to absorbing these skills," says Rick Feldman, NATPE president.
Beales Resigns From FTC Consumer Protection Post
WASHINGTON — In mid-July, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced that J. Howard Beales III, director of the Bureau of Consumer Protection, would be leaving his position at the Bureau to return to academic life as associate professor of strategic management and public policy at George Washington University. Beales stepped down on August 6.
Lydia B. Parnes, deputy director of the Bureau, has been named acting director.
"Howard has been an invaluable member of my senior management team and a trusted colleague," Muris says. "Under Howard's leadership, the Bureau of Consumer Protection aggressively attacked fraud and deception; strengthened consumer protections in critical areas such as privacy, telemarketing and identity theft; and implemented innovative, award-winning consumer education programs. Consumers everywhere have benefited from Howard's exceptional tenure as bureau director."
Beales' leadership of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection yielded notable law enforcement results, with the agency filing 258 federal district court cases and obtaining orders for nearly $1.3 billion in consumer redress, including the two largest consumer redress settlements in the Bureau's history. As part of the Commission's reformulated privacy agenda, Beales was a prime mover in managing the creation and implementation of the National Do Not Call Registry, which received unprecedented Congressional and consumer support.
Bush Dodges Senate to Appoint Majoras as New FTC Chairman
WASHINGTON — President Bush hurtled Senate barricades and appointed the new Federal Trade Commission Chairman, Deborah P. Majoras, on July 30. She was sworn into office on Aug. 16.
"I am deeply honored to be chairman of the FTC. It will be a privilege to serve with my fellow commissioners and the commission staff as we work tirelessly to protect and enhance consumer welfare," Majoras says.
Majoras' nomination was initially blocked by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) because he felt she would not take the appropriate measures to minimize the rising costs of gas prices. But the President, who nominated Majoras in May, was intent on securing the position for her and waited until the Senate left for its summer recess to appoint her.
Wyden will have to live with the decision at least until Majoras' recess appointment expires at the end of next year's session in 2005, but he said in a statement that he hopes this "un-democratic process" won't result in hurting consumers.
The new FTC chairman succeeds Timothy J. Muris, especially known in the DR industry for spearheading the do-not-call list, which prohibits telemarketers from contacting millions of people. Muris stepped down from the position after three years so he could pursue other opportunities at George Mason University's School of Law.
Majoras, a Republican from Virginia, previously served as principal deputy assistant attorney general at the Justice Department's Antitrust Division. She played a significant part in negotiating the settlement of the Microsoft Corp. antitrust case.
The President also appointed Jonathan Leibowitz as a commissioner. Leibowitz is a former Senate aide who is now a lobbyist at the Motion Picture Association of America.
FTC Slams Promenade LLC With Allegations, $2.4 million Penalty
WASHINGTON — The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announces the Aug. 13 filing of a complaint and consent decree against nine corporations, collectively known as Promenade, for violations of the FTC Act, the Telemarketing Sales Rule and the Electronic Funds Transfer Act. The complaint, filed in a California federal court, alleges the Los Angeles-based company misled consumers and made erroneous charges when selling various membership services. Promenade must pay a $2.4 million penalty.

MIAMI - The father of a boy who was mauled to death by a dog in southwest Miami-Dade County has been arrested.
Miami-Dade police said Javon Dade and his girlfriend, Alessandra Carrasco, were arrested Friday on charges of child neglect causing great bodily harm.
Javon Dade Jr., 4, was mauled to death at his father's property in Goulds after his family reported him missing Aug. 13.
Police said Dade and Carrasco were sleeping off a hangover when Javon got outside through an unlocked back door. Police said the couple had spent the previous night smoking marijuana cigarettes laced with cocaine.
Six dogs -- three adults and three puppies -- were removed from the property. An adult male pit bull was later euthanized because of the dog's temperament.
Dade was fined $1,040 by Miami-Dade County Animal Services for violating the county's dog ordinance.
According to a 2011 Department of Children and Families report, investigators had warned of the "smell and danger" of six "untrained dogs" living in the home.
Investigators said in 2010 two of the dogs got into a fight, and two people inside the home were bitten by the dogs while trying to break it up.
Dade has many previous arrests in Miami-Dade County that date back to 2002. Charges up until 2013 included battery, disorderly conduct, cocaine possession and marijuana possession.
Carrasco had no previous criminal history in Miami-Dade or Broward counties.

Deadmau5 is Dating Tattoo Vixen Kat Von D
Hot electronic DJ Deadmau5 has himself a hot girlfriend, reality television tattoo artist Kat Von D. The two were spotted holding hands together in L.A. this week and the DJ confirmed via Twitter that he's in love.
"Yeah, im love… inb4 I find a f— to give over the Internet implodes over it 😉 at least I'm happy! Lol," Deadmau5 tweeted on Sunday in a post that isn't grammatically perfect, but we get the point.
The 31-year-old DJ (born Joel Zimmerman) has been unable to stop gushing about Kat on every social media network. On Instagram, he posted a photo with his girl. On Facebook, he created a photo album called "A Day With the Kats" that shows more than 40 pics of Kat with his two kitties.
Us Weekly spotted the couple walking through Beverly Hills on Monday. A source told the magazine the lovebirds first met at a party. "It's going very strong," the insider reported. "He's really into her."
Known for his mouse-face on-stage costume, Deadmau5 has become one of the most recognizable names in EDM music and he performed live at this year's Grammy Awards. The 30-year-old Mexican-born Kat Von D became famous as a star of the TLC reality show 'LA Ink' and has since launched her own makeup and clothing lines.

Ark. town considers stricter dog regulations
HOT SPRINGS VILLAGE, Ark. (AP) - Leaders in Hot Springs Village are considering new regulations on dogs after a 75-year-old resident was killed by a bull mastiff while on her morning walk.
A proposal before the Hot Springs Village Property Owners' Association Board of Directors would create a leash law for the community. The proposal would require a leash in all areas of the community, except the dog owner's personal property and a recently completed dog park.
Residents in the community have asked for stricter animal control policies after the Nov. 21 death of Joan Kappen.
The Sentinel-Records reports (http://bit.ly/19fRm8b ) that the board of directors plans to vote by Feb. 19 on the recommendation. If approved, the recommendation would also have to be approved by quorum courts in Garland and Saline counties to take effect.

Mystical Poodle Eyeshadow TutorialSkin Care
08 Mar
Happy Friday! I've got a tutorial for you today with BFTE & Fyrinnae Cosmetics. I based this look around BFTE Poodle Pandemonium, which is a pretty pink-purple shade. I threw in Pyromantic Erotica from Fyrinnae because I don't often see it being used and I thought the colors would be fun with Poodle Pandemonium.
How to Achieve the Look
1. Apply Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy to the lid. Then apply BFTE Poodle Pandemonium to the lid, except for the inner and outer corners.
2. Add Fyrinnae Mystical Hedgehog to the outer corner of the lid and the outer crease.
3. Use Fyrinnae Space Kitty at the inner lid and inner v.
4. Apply Fyrinnae Pyromantic Erotica into the inner crease and then blend outwards, on top of Mystical Hedgehog.
5. Line the lower lash line with Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Junkie.
6. Add mascara. Line the waterline with glo Minerals Peach liner.
7. Highlight under brows with BFTE Glistening.
Products Used
Jesse's Girl Eyeshadow Primer
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy – lid
BFTE Poodle Pandemonium – lid
Fyrinnae Mystical Hedgehog – outer corner of lid and outer crease
Fyrinnae Space Kitty – inner V
Fyrinnae Pyromantic Erotica – inner crease, blended outwards
BFTE Glistening – highlight under brows
Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Junkie – lower lash line
glo Minerals Peach liner – waterline
BareMinerals Mascara
Would you wear these colors together? I never thought that orange and purple would work so well together! The green shift in Pyromantic Erotica adds something special to the look.

Ict Strategy Support For Business Development And Innovation
This paper work emphasizes the importance of the strategic management for the present companies, no matter the dimension or the field. More important becomes thou, the implementation and utilization of systems that represents support for business processes and information flows because of focus on co-operation and networking activities of today's companies. The models created for running businesses are creative but in some cases these are not paying attention to the ICT point of view. There is evidently a large gap between business and technology development and knowledge about those activities. The paper presents the challenges of business and ICT development thorough the strategies, as global strategies of the companies or as units strategies but always have to be handled as integrated and related activities.
