Never ever should you get two puppies/dogs at the same time! The puppies/dogs will become so bonded to each other that they will not bond well with the humans in the household. As a breeder, I would never allow someone to take a puppy home that has another dog under the age of 8 months to a year old -- depending on the situation. Puppies are a ton of work and two puppies are even more work. Please take your time. Get one puppy first, raise and train the dog and at a year old, then get your second dog. This way the two are still close enough in age to play. But remember, the closer the dogs are in age, the higher the probability that in 10 or so years -- both of them will pass close to the same time, so please take that into consideration.4/29/2015 8:56:27 PM
Every breeder in general is different, but I myself, being a breeder charge less for a pet quality puppy compared to a show prospect puppy. Even though I do not breed Welsh Corgi's, I am sure you will be able to find a reasonably priced pup. On average, a pup that is from a reputable breeder that will be a pet and not a show/breeding dog is around $900.00 - $1100.00. Do your research and talk to your breeder about their prices and why their pups are priced at that point. The more information you can gather from several breeders that you like, the better you can make a choice on where to get your pup from.7/1/2014 9:33:03 AM

You shouldn't have any problems. Corgis tend to be great with other dogs. Non aggressive, non dominant. Just make sure that they know that you are alpha which shouldnt be hard since they are naturally a submissive breed and will do anything to please you. Just make sure that while you are training them that you do not spank them or be rough, they do not respond as well to that. I've learned with my corgi that just letting him know that what he did upsets me and consistency tends to be enough.4/8/2014 12:43:05 AM
As long as you have both of them neutered, you should do fine. Male Corgis tend to tolerate each other well. However, 2 females almost never do well together. The females are dominant by nature, and tend to fight for that dominance when mature. 10/25/2014 1:02:41 AM
We raise the smaller pups 17/21 lbs grown their ears stand first at about 4 weeks & depending upon the size of the pup can go up & down during growth periods to accomodate the size and weight of the ears.10/8/2013 9:36:13 PM
My Corgis ears started to perk up somewhere between 3-4 months. I was incredibly disappointed, I loved the floppy ears.4/8/2014 12:44:01 AM
If you get a male puppy (they are more beta than alpha) he will harrass the cat & play but wont usually hurt them. Good Buds !10/8/2013 10:05:16 PM
Corgi's are easy to potty train. Just don't be to hard on them, no need for spanking, they won't respond as well. Just make sure that he knows that you are unhappy with what he has done and be consistent. Corgi's are extremely smart and VERY eager to please. You should bath him about once a month and use a stripper with 8-10 teeth to brush him twice a week or else you will have shag carpets. Make sure that you do not brush the same spot too many times or else you can cause brush burn. And do not have him shaved. Shaving double coated dogs CAN damage their coat for the rest of their lives. I went a month without brushing mine and I removed enough fur to make another corgi. For an extra healthy coat mix one raw egg into one of his meals every day. Be careful to not overfeed him. Corgis are known to become very overweight. He should get along just fine with your lazy cat. Keep in mind that Corgis are herding dogs.4/8/2014 12:51:33 AM

Corgis generaly grow to be 10-12 inches tall but the male should normally wiegh 26-30 pounds and females are normally 24- 28 pounds. However some corgi's might be alittle bit bigger or smaller depending on genetics but those are the regular figures1/15/2013 10:24:09 PM
Some corgis get very large 35/40 lbs / care should be taken with feeding so they dont overeat / we raise a smaller corgi 17/22 lbs & feed them once per day to keep them from becoming obese.10/8/2013 9:37:53 PM
Corgi's generally grow to be twice as long as they are tall.4/8/2014 12:52:49 AM
It has been my experience, that your older corgi will lay out the ground rules with a puppy and the pup will accept it. There may be some initial "growling" but eventually, if the two are allowed to work it out, they will work through it. Good luck!!8/21/2012 9:12:49 AM
We find in the Corgi pups we have raised that the females seem to be the more alpha dogs & males seem to be more beta dispositions ..there are always exceptions of course...but as a general rule boys are more laid back.10/8/2013 9:39:14 PM
He will probably try and hump a female when she becomes of age, fixed or not. Other than that he should be fine. Corgis are generally a submissive and social breed.4/8/2014 12:54:08 AM
At about 6 to 10 weeks it will just happen one day. 8/23/2012 5:08:38 PM
Corgi's are born with tail's and need to be Docked by your vet along with dew Claw's removed at 3-4 day's old. Their ear's start to come up at different stages usually by 5 weeks old they are up. Chances are if by 8 weeks they are not up they are not going to come up...8/3/2012 1:01:18 AM
MOST Pembroke corgis are born with docked tails. Cardigans are generally born with tails. My corgis ears were fully up when he was about 3-4 months old. I have never seen an adult corgi with floppy ears.4/8/2014 12:56:19 AM
No dog should kill another dog. Hopefully, some humans would be around to intervene before it gets that ugly. A corgi is not dog aggressive by nature. It's a herding dog, and as such, he may try to "round up" a group of terriers into a herd, using some nipping, barking and growling as necessary to get the job done. Corgis like their other animals "in a pile." Hope this helps.8/21/2012 9:15:10 AM
Not at all common on the epilepsy and Von Willebrands. As to the disc disease, this also is not 'common'. You do have to watch them because of their body shape. Don't let them jump off of things and really really watch their weight. All this adds to the possibility of back injury. 5/29/2012 5:31:30 PM
As long as it is just every once in awhile and not all the time, it's nothing to worry about. All dogs do this. Their stomach is upset and they eat grass to force themselves to throw up. Usually after they throw up, they feel better and go back to normal. They will not eat while their stomachs are upset. If she has stopped eating altogether and not acting well, you should take her to the vet and have her checked. If it's just something she does once in a while, it's pretty normal dog behavior.
They are the same. They are Pembroke Welsh Corgis. There are Pembroke Welsh corgis and Cardigan Welsh Corgis, they are 2 seperate breeds. The Cardigan has a tail, the Pembroke does not. The Cardigan has bigger, rounder ears with a wider earset. The Cardigan also comes in colors that the Pembrokes do not. For example, there is no such thing as a blue or merle Pembroke. That is only acceptable in the Cardigans. If you see one of these colors advertised as a Pembroke, they are not purebred. 5/29/2012 5:37:02 PM
As we understand it there are welsh cardigan corgis and welsh pembroke corgis which have different looks & some different colorings & cardigans have a long tail you can look them up !10/8/2013 9:47:46 PM
Purebred corgis get to be roughly 12inches at the shoulder and females weigh in about 22-28lbs and males should be 30-38lbs.
Sounds like ear mites. Lots of debris in the ears and shaking the head along with an odor, points to it. Definately look into a new vet, if yours doesn't see a problem. You will need to get medicine to kill the mites and antibiotics for any secondary infection. Gently cleaning, with warm soap and water, will help relieve some of his discomfort, but will not treat or kill ear mites. Go to a vet for medication. 11/14/2011 12:49:29 AM
You totally need a new vet. Ear mites are soooo easy to spot and your Pembroke Corgi has classic symptoms. You need a new vet they should of guessed that immediately.
You can purchase a solution for ear cleaning at the vets office, pet store or feed and farm store...it works every well and smells wonderful...just put some in the ear and message it down low at the base the dirt will begin to rise to the surface...if the ears are truly infected i would think you should get that tended to first by a good dvm... you might have to restrain the dog for cleaning at first...but our dogs love it. He could also have ear mites or ticks that would tend to make him shake his head. 10/8/2013 10:10:32 PM
150. They are MENSA dogs. Seriously, be prepared to be outsmarted. That said, they are extremely anxious to please you and to have a job to do, so use that to your advantage. Oh, and some of them are drunks, so please keep your beer glasses off the floor. :D8/21/2012 9:17:39 AM
Smarter than a human sometimes....we have one Corgi that if my husband says I'm going to bed now / she beats him into the bedroom ...and when we have pups we have to spell the word T-R-E-A-T ! VERY VERY smart & at a young age to it only takes a few days of calling them by name in their group when they are about 4 weeks before they will come to their names individually 10/8/2013 9:50:10 PM
yes, corgi's are very protective of their family members and property. They do not like invaders onto their turf4/4/2012 7:28:39 PM
Im guessing this might be at feeding time and that you have a female...the female corgi's appear to us to be more aggressive (especially over food) than the male corgi's .....ususally raising your voice and indicating this is not acceptable behavior solves it...but separating them at feeding time helps too...10/8/2013 9:52:36 PM
I raise corgis and have seen them be protective of their stuff. If they feel threatened by the other dog they will not back down. Remember, they are 25lb dogs breed to take on 2500lb cattle.3/9/2012 10:33:08 AM
It would be best if you just google each one up because they are totally separate dog breeds .10/8/2013 9:53:27 PM
All dogs can be trained if the owner is consistent and does it right. As for throwing up, it depends on what you are letting your corgi eat! They mark no more than any other dog. 7/27/2011 10:25:27 PM
Hiya :) My dog was potty trained in about a month maximum you just need to take him outside often enough and he'll learn :D2/10/2012 2:18:33 PM
Corgis are very easy to potty train if you begin at an early age...we have even offered them cat litter at about 2 weeks of age and they have not only used it but covered it up like a cat does...you have to keep the litter box very clean tho they are picky.....Any dog is capable of throwing up...a car ride sometimes..or a but they might eat ...or similar. Any male can mark if not trained or fixed before he begins marking ...and particularly if he is a breeding dog. I don't think they are natrually real territorial...they love people so much. 10/8/2013 9:56:38 PM

The ears on a corgi go floppy in adulthood when the ears are played with when they are a pup. As the capillaries inside the ear are fragile when they are a pup rubbing them too hard can damage these and prevent good blood flow that enables the ears to remain upright in adulthood. So if you want pointy ears don't rub or play with them when your pet is a pup.7/17/2011 3:05:55 AM
It is perfectly normal for a corgi puppy's ears to go up and down at first. Some puppies will have them up at 5 weeks and never put them down. Some will have one up and one down one day and then switch. Some will have them up and then drop them. If a puppy gets overweight, it's ears will droop. When it teeths, it's ears will droop. There is not set proticol and no time limit. However, by a year, the ears are usually up for good. If they droop after that, there is usually an infection or injury. 11/14/2011 12:43:15 AM
We raise smaller corgis 17/22 lbs grown ...their ears stand at about 4 weeks and then go up and down (we call this bad ear days) as the growing process happens ...we have noticed the bigger the pups the longer it takes as the ears grow larger with the pups growth and they have to have time to learn to support themselves...just wait !10/8/2013 9:58:50 PM
Some corgis bark a lot, and some don't (I have had 6 corgis, and 3 were barkers and 3 weren't). They are WONDERFUL with children--I have 4 kids and they have grown up with corgis. Just buy your dog through a reputable breeder--you can find them through the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club of America, or the similar Cardigan Club (corgis with tails, a bit bigger, etc).3/1/2011 9:27:22 PM
Corgis bark if allowed to they can be trained not to also corgis love little kids!8/5/2011 3:31:41 PM
Some corgis are barkers, some are talkers & some are quiet just like people...they are great with small children...at least the ones we raise are !10/8/2013 10:00:07 PM

Yes corgi's shed at least 2 times a year and you can fill a coffee can with their hair... But if brushed daily for a week or so you can make the shedding process a quick one.... they cost anywhere from 300 to 750 or so...2/12/2011 12:43:51 AM
Corgi's shed! I was at a book store and there was an ice cream place and my corgi's hair was in the ice cream im like how did that happen???8/5/2011 3:31:01 PM
Corgi's do shed though I have heard that with a daily 10 minute groom that can be helped. :)
As for the cost I have seen some corgi's go for as much as 1,500 although that was for champion bloodlines and crazyness. most go for between 450- 800 1/14/2013 6:42:10 AM
Most corgis shed heavily 2 x per year in our experience...& some are more flat coated than others so they dont shed quite as much ...but ALL corgis do shed.
Our Corgis are $500 I doubt that you can find a pet quality pup much under that figure and they come with MANY ammenities and are hand raised in our home. That does not include transport. 10/8/2013 10:02:12 PM
I had a litter of corgi's on the 30th of Dec and yesterday 1 of the puppies ears started to stand up which was at 6 weeks....2/12/2011 12:45:51 AM
It's different for all corgi's, but about four to five weeks old.....8/5/2011 3:30:06 PM
I've heard that from a lady. I've had 3 corgi litters, different dams, the oldest did have to have a C-section, the other two were younger and had no problems.1/1/2011 12:33:20 PM
I have raised Corgis for 23 years, as well as other breeds, and yes, they do tend to have more complications while whelping. They have larger puppies and they tend to have large litters. C-sections are common and females should be watched closely. 11/14/2011 12:46:09 AM
None!!!! Do not believe when they say not to buy a pure breed!!! Just make sure you go to a real breader!!!!! With good nutrition.........I had three corgi's and never never had a health problem........1/23/2011 9:34:56 PM
Corgis do have genetic predisposition to eye problems, hip dysplasia. If you buy your corgi from a registered breeder, they breed these genes out, so there should be no problem. Buying one from a non-registered breeder and you are taking your chances, not to mention supporting puppy mills. 7/27/2011 10:23:56 PM
Watch out for the corgi's back! Be gentle!8/5/2011 3:29:21 PM

11 Years or so.10/19/2010 8:49:42 PM
The average life span of a Welsh Pembroke Corgi is 12 to 14 years of age.
With proper nutrition like Ekenuba food, and great excercise plan,,,,(i walked my dog 3-4 miles daily) Welsh Corgi, Pembroke's will live long and healthy.. I just put Lady down at the age of 15. My vet said she was the healthiest dog he had ever taken care of!!!! She just died of old age.....they are the BEST!!!1/23/2011 9:33:26 PM
we have had 6 corgis all lived to 15+ years. 6/9/2011 1:00:32 AM
My female Pembroke passed away last week at the ripe old age of 17 1/2. Very healthy almost her entire life. 6/20/2012 11:04:16 PM

I was able to watch the game again tonight on Dish Network on a Sports Alternate channel, but I still don't have Fox Sports New Orleans.

Lafcadio Hearn (Inventing New Orleans: Writings of Lafcadio Hearn)
This link has some channel info, Dish included:
For those with Dish who don't think they have `the channel', think again. It's not a `the channel'. It's a collection of feeds, and different distributors handle that differently. Some have all the feeds seemlessly going to one `spot' (say, 38). Others keep them separated.
For those having issues, let me try to help here. Consolidate your issues into one post each. Include your provider, zip code, and what your issue is (not what you think it is).
Example, Cox, 70001. I go to channel 38 and don't see the game.
Non-example: I have LUS and I get the games but not FSNO.
I'll see what I can do to either advise or call these people on your behalf and tear them a new one.

DirectTv, 39574, (Saucier, MS): go to channel 678 FSNO and do not see the game
Side note: opening night - received the Dallas game on FSSW; friday night - received the OKC game on FSOK.

This seems to be a DirecTV issue over there. I'll be informing a few people about this and more.
Well I am a League Pass subscriber and it was on last night. It is finally so nice to watch a Hornets game and not have to listen to the other teams announcer. Now that the Hornets have a tv deal.
Direct tv . Opening nigjt the game was blacked out on nba tv. Also the 678 and 679-1 listed as Fox NO said I was not subscribed . I got all nba games on all the fox channels since Nba league pass is free right now. Just no hornets games anywhere on both games
Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35401. Comcast. Searched the guide multiple times for FSNO and it didn't show, even went channel by channel through all of the FS networks. To top things off, my roomate is a bandwagon celtics fan and ordered league pass.Told him i would pay for half if FSNO wasn't available.. Both TV and broadband has every Hornets game blackedout. REALLY UPSET
Tuscaloosa may not be in the target area. You may get soem games on other FS things on an ad hoc basis. I'll ask, but I think it's a Gulf Coast + Louisiana focus.
I have Dish and live in Slidell. I go to "menu" and search for "hornets". The channels numbers are different for the various upcoming Hornets games. Hornets are on my "Regional Sports Networks, 84 channels" - ch 412. Tonights game against the Bulls is on 412-36 and the games seem to vary between 412-35 to 412-38 so far. These are all Sports Alternate channels. They only go live at game time. I also still get FOXSW and that is also on the same tier at 412-06. Nothing is labeled as FOXNO. The hi-def coverage for last nights game was great!
I can also just key in 41236 and go directly to the channel. Not an easy channel to find by accident.
Sounds like they really should have done the soft launch even if they couldn't show pre-season games. Having to search for various channels every night sounds crappy. Imagine the older, not so techy fans having to do this.
One dedicated channel Fox. Get it together.
Pregame is "not subscribed" on direct tv 678&678-1 Fox NO right now. Guess
I'm not following the hornets this season
Directv 39525 Diamondhead, MS. Channel not subscribed for 678, 677, & 676.
I will be calling Directv again tonite.
It's the distributors choice of how to depoy the signals, but there is a gross misconception about about FS RSN's work. They all share programming, and many are assuming FSSW just turns into FSNO for a little while and turns back. Rather, FSNO is broadcasting their feed, or FS Soccer for those who left the TV going after the Jazz game and postgame.
Some distributors just keep all the feeds separate, so the `logos' make sense, but the business model involves porting over content.
The fanbase must adapt, as it is this exact mechanism that will allow Hornets games across much of the South on some occasions.
Well according to this, the NBA has decided that Birmingham/Tuscaloosa is a home market for ALL 3 of Hornets, Hawks, and Grizzles. So we are blacked out for all 3, unless they decide to carry them on the RSN.

One interesting tidbit about Eatel, it looks like we switched to Fox Sport South. Our channel is now called FSS7 and when it's not on FSNO the label in the top right corner says Fox Sports South.. If the Braves are on FSS that would be logical since the Astros and any content we care about here are no longer on Fox Sports South West.
In response to the most common questions. If you question is still unaddressed, repeat it below.
If you don't believe me, give me the number of the Fox Sports New Orleans executive you talked to or tell me which game you couldn't find / get once you miss it.
Mississippi: Hornets games will be on Fox Sports South or SportSouth, depending. They will pick up the FSNO feed, so you will see FSNO logo, broadcasters, etc. After the game, you'll see your regular channel. FSNO people will see FSSW for the time being. This content sharing is part of what makes the FSNO deal so appealing. Just keep in mind that you don't have to get FSNO to get some of the content, particularly Hornets games. Here are the markets that make up "Mississippi" for the purposes of this conversation: Biloxi+Gulfport, Jackson, Meridian, Hattiesburg, Mobile.
Dish: Dish will carry every Hornets game that FSNO covers in the Hornets territory. They will be carried in their `alternate channels', usually around 450. Wednesday's game is on ESPN, but Friday's game is on 450, per http://www.mydish.com/gamefinder/ and likely your channel guide. The games will be on different channels each time, potentially, but they will all be on. You will see the FSNO broadcast, etc. This does NOT expire when the NBA League Pass Trial expires for those in the Hornets market per the terms of this deal.
Those not in the markets, your best option is NBA League Pass. Contact your provider for details.
If you are in the market and don't know how to find games, let us know or contact your provider. If your providers doesn't carry the games, complain, then inquire about changing providers.
This is per a FSNO executive. I'm just reporting back the answers from your questions.
Thanks for asking on behalf of everyone who this information is helping.
Is Mobile the only Alabama city in the Hornets market?
The question was about Mississippi... no idea.
Al people, check those othe Fox affiliated RSN's and let us know what you see Friday and veyond.
He did.
That's why I had "Mississippi" in the response.
I'll catch panhandle and the rest of AL next time. We have at least some of East Texas, over I-20 to Meridian, then... we'll see.

Pfeiffer University men's basketball coach Jeremy Currier has announced the signing of 2,000 point scorer, Mike Smith. Smith joins the Falcons from Lexington, KY and was a four-year captain and starter at Paul Laurence Dunbar High School.
"We're really excited about Mike," said Currier. "He has terrific guard skills and is an outstanding young man. Mike addresses two areas of need; the ability to knock down shots and pressure the ball defensively. While he was a prolific scorer in high school, perhaps the best thing Mike does is pressure the ball and generates steals and turnover opportunities. His experience guarding the ball 94 feet will be invaluable for our team."
Smith, a 2013 signee, scored 2,256 career points and his 450 career steals place him fourth in KHSAA history. In 2013, he was named the 43rd District Tournament MVP as well as the MVP of the National Guard Shoot for the Cure Classic. For his career, Smith was named All-Region, All-Conference and All-City three times and garnered the Courier Journal's 3rd Team All-State honors. The 5'9'' point guard was the City's leading scorer twice in his career and poured in a career-high 22.5 points per game as a sophomore, including a 46-point performance. Mike was named the Player of the Game in the Hazard Classic, Al Prewitt Classic and Letcher Co. Classic.
Smith joins Connor Dahn, Charlie Wagoner and Xavier Evans to form an impressive four-player recruiting class. The newcomers will join 11 returning lettermen and four starters from the 2012-13 squad. Seven of the Falcons top eight scorers last season were freshmen or sophomores.

Rumored to be the largest arena in the United States based on sheer physical size, Chicago's United Center certainly lived up to expectations. It is a behemoth, which makes it all the more impressive how effectively the band along with Robert Scovill, John "Haircut" Tompkins and the rest of the Heartbreakers' sound team can seemingly shrink the size of the room and give even the most massive venue an intimate listening experience. In the coming weeks, we'll be getting more in-depth with Robert and the sound crew on how they approach the Heartbreakers' live sound while working with their brand new K-1 System, hand built by French company L-Acoustics.
Tonight's show in Chicago held special significance for the Drive-By Truckers as most of the band members had their families at the show. Frontman Patterson Hood dedicated "Santa Fe" to them off the band's new album, The Big To-Do.
Soon after taking the stage, Tom promised the capacity crowd that they would have some serious fun on this Saturday night. "We're gonna raise hell here in Chicago," he said. Well it didn't take long before total pandemonium erupted inside the giant packed arena with the opening of "Free Fallin.'" Rare are the songs that can be identified within the first few notes, but "Free Fallin'" is definitely one of them. Never fails to produce goose bumps
We're headed to St. Louis for a Sunday show and then on to Cleveland, Detroit and Pittsburgh next week. Come out and see us soon and check back for more photos, videos and recaps from the tour!

The St. Louis Rams cut defensive end Michael Sam at the NFL's 53-man roster deadline Saturday, but he might find a new home soon.
NFL Media's Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday that the Dallas Cowboys are "doing research" into the plan of signing Sam, the first openly gay player to be drafted in the NFL, to their practice squad.
#Cowboys spent today calling players, gauging reaction to signing Michael Sam. They'll have him in with the plan to sign him to P-squad—
Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 02, 2014
Michael Sam flies in to Dallas tonight, source says. He'll take a physical. If he passes, he will join their practice squad.—
Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 02, 2014
Sam had three sacks and 11 combined tackles for the Rams during the preseason, but St. Louis has a deep defensive line. Had Sam made the team, he likely wouldn't have seen the field all season. The Cowboys' D-line, on the other hand, isn't 100 percent healthy.

Sonar Eclipse provides a comprehensive Sonar integration for Eclipse. The objective of this Eclipse plugin is that developers do not have to leave their favorite IDE to get valuable information on code quality. Most of the information displayed in the Sonar Web interface is now available in Eclipse. Sonar Eclipse takes care to automatically collect information from the Sonar Web server and decorates the source code on-the-fly.
Installing Sonar Eclipse is pretty simple. For instructions, prerequisites and a demonstration video go to Installing Sonar Eclipse.
- Get all quality measures on project, package and file ressources
- Find quality hotspots according to selectable metric (e.g. : files with most duplicated lines, most complex files, files with most uncovered lines by unit tests, ...)
- On-the-fly decoration of the source code with violations to quality rules
- List of all known violations to quality rule on selected ressources (project, package, file)
- Bridge with the Sonar Web server to access additional tools not yet fully integrated into the Eclipse plugin like clouds, treemap, ...
Configure Sonar Eclipse
Sonar Eclipse is pre-configured to work with local Sonar server listening on http://localhost:9000/. If you want to use your corporate Sonar server(s), you must first define this server by using the Eclipse global Preferences window :
Once your Sonar server has been defined, the next step is to "link" your eclipse projects with projects defined and analysed in your corporate Sonar server(s). This linkage operation can be done by right-clicking on the the project into the "Package explorer", and then by choosing "Configure -> Associate with Sonar..." :
You can now start to use Sonar Eclipse and fix quality flaws.
Use Sonar Eclipse
Sonar Eclipse provides one eclipse perspective and four eclipse views. Those eclipse views can of course be used outside the "Sonar" eclipse perspective, but this tutorial described the default "Sonar" eclipse perspective layout.
To activate the "Sonar" eclipse perspective, click on "Windows -> Open Perspective -> Other ..." and select "Sonar" :
Measures view
The Measure view allows to get all available measures on the selected ressources. Most of the time, developers focus their attention on only few important metrics like complexity, uncovered lines of code by unit tests, duplicated lines, ... and want to get a quick overview on those metrics. That's why favourite metrics are displayed on the top of the Measures view. Adding or Removing a metric from the favourites list is made possible by right clicking on the metric name :
Violations view
The Violations view displayed the list of all violations to quality rules for the selected ressources (project, package, file) :
A double-click on a violation open the source code editor and highlight the violation :
Once a violation has been fixed, you can simply delete it by clicking on the violation icon and then by selecting the "Delete violation" item. Deleting a violation also removes it from the Violations view :
Hotspots view
The Hotspots view allows to quickly identify hotspots (files) according to favourite metrics (defined in the Measures view). You can for instance look for files with the greatest number of duplicated lines, greatest number of violations, greatest number of uncovered lines by unit tests, ... :
Web view
The Web view displays the web Sonar dashboard (for projects and packages) or the web Sonar ressource viewer (for files). This web page could be used to access quality information or tools (like clouds, treemap, ...) that are not yet natively available in Sonar Eclipse :

MT. HERMON — Southern Alamance welcomed back a couple of key players from injuries for Monday afternoon's boys' basketball game in the Tony Perrou Classic.
Yet it was Eric Foster, who has been on board all along, who practically stole the show.
Foster, a senior forward, scored a career-high 18 points and battled for 11 rebounds as the host Patriots beat back River Mill 75-61.
"I took it really serious this whole past week," Foster said. "I felt maybe it was just my turn to lead the team."
The Patriots (7-8) were boosted by the return of guards Alex Fowler and Johnathan Lloyd, who've both missed about a month because of injuries. They were in the starting lineup against River Mill, combining for 19 points.
"When you're playing games without your starting point guard and (another) guard, it's not a good thing," Southern Alamance coach Anthony Noell said. "Having everybody back is just great. I thought we did a good job of sharing the basketball."
Before Fowler and Lloyd could fully announce their arrivals, Foster was at work in the lane. He tallied 10 points in the first quarter. He said it was a smooth transition to a more experienced lineup for the Patriots.
"I was really surprised," Foster said. "I think we played really well with everybody coming back and we didn't miss anything with the chemistry."
Foster scored Southern Alamance's first four points of the third quarter and connected on the first basket of the fourth quarter. He played sparingly in the second half — and that's not all that unusual.
"Eric always plays hard," Noell said. "Eric gets in foul trouble a lot because he plays so aggressive. I can't tell him not to play aggressive. I don't want to take that away from him."
It was what the Patriots had back that was critical as well. Lloyd was directing the offense, taking some attention away from swingman Dairyon Matkins. Matkins hit four 3-pointers on the way to 15 points.
Fowler scored 10 of his 11 points in the first half. He said he attended practice and was diligent in rehabilitation of his injured ankle.
"I just tried to work on my shot a little bit," Fowler said. "I didn't think it would go as smoothly (the first game back) as it did."
R.J. Alvarado's 19 points and Jesse Crawford's 13 points paced River Mill, which was within 22-18 midway through the second quarter. The Jaguars (6-8) didn't have the firepower to keep up.
"They're a little more athletic, a little more skilled," River Mill coach Lemont Turner said of Southern Alamance. "Then just the timing of some of (our) turnovers."
Still, Turner said it was a worthwhile endeavor as his Class 1-A team heads into the heart of its conference schedule.
"We're trying to find some consistency," Turner said. "These games (like this) are good for us because it prepares us for conference."

ALTAMAHAW — Boo Boo Dalton's season-opening victory at Ace Speedway contained as much introspection as it did joy.
After deeply pondering the decision, the Liberty teenager chose to pull the plug on playing high school baseball and return to racing at Ace, where he has become a standout driver on Friday nights while claiming two of the previous three Limited Late Models championships.
Dalton broke away from the pack last week and led the final 34 laps of the division's first event of the year, a 40-lapper.
And upon reaching Victory Lane, where he climbed out of his No. 50 Chevrolet, stood atop the door panel and did his customary water slinging to celebrate, it was clear that leaving baseball behind still weighs on his mind.
"It was very hard," he said. "I sat there and thought about it for four or five weeks straight before we got to this first race. Once we got here, it was just about a dead-even trade. I just had to give up baseball to come race. My friends and family, I just couldn't tell them no."
Dalton, a junior, was a catcher for Providence Grove High School in Randolph County.
"I love baseball just about as much as I do racing," he said. "I've been doing baseball since I was 8 and I've been racing since I was 4.
"So, I mean, when my friends and family say, 'Hey, let's go racing instead of playing baseball,' you just kind of have to follow in their footsteps and say, 'Well, let's go.' "
Despite that inner struggle, Dalton proved ready to roll from an emotional standpoint when he arrived at the speedway last week.
He said butterflies fluttered in his stomach and his heart pounded in his chest as his family and race team finished their 45-minute haul and pulled into the track.
Then Dalton turned mad at himself in qualifying, with his lap of 16.001 seconds checking in slower than Steve Hatley's run of 15.961 seconds.
Dalton put the brakes on that anger during the race. He climbed from the fifth spot on the starting grid to first position in a matter of six laps and went on to navigate four double-file restarts, the last one with five laps remaining.
"I couldn't ask for a better way to open up this season," he said. "I home. I'm at my hometown race track. I love every single one of these fans. Even the ones that flip me off, I love y'all, too."
-- MOORE MOTIVATION: John Moore finished third in last week's Late Models opener. And during that 60-lap feature's early and middle portions, the potential for the first Late Models victory of his Ace career was ever-present.
Moore led the first 46 laps, before eventual winner Dustin Rumley and runner-up Dean Fogleman worked past him.
Beginning his fifth season of Late Models competition, Moore said he drew inspiration from Rodney Cook's special appearance at Ace. Cook, the two-time former champion, his arm in a sling following cancer surgery, gave the command for drivers to start their engines while also thanking the speedway community for its support.
Moore and Cook are second cousins.
"That was awesome to see him out here," Moore said. "He's family. If I would've won, that would've been the first thing I would've said. It would've been dedicated to him and his recovery. I'm looking forward to that."
-- PIT STOPS …: Steve Hatley's runner-up finish last week in Limited Late Models was disqualified when his No. 41 car failed inspection after a post-race protest from Jason Payne. That elevated Ziggy Zimmerman to second place and Payne to third place in the revised finishing order. … There's a full card scheduled for this week at Ace, with Friday night races for the Late Models, Limited Late Models, Modifieds, Mini Stocks and X-treme Cars.
-- QUOTABLE: "I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad it was 60 laps. It was a fight, a complete fight, all the way." — Rumley.
He battled a faulty transmission and, due to damage to his race car, had to withstand a cockpit filling with exhaust fumes while winning last week's Late Models opener.

Unlike religious beliefs, science DOES NOT entail "blind faith" in its search for truth. In fact, just the opposite is true. EVERY scientific theory is CONSTANTLY being questioned, challenged, and critically tested by skeptical scientists employing the scientific method and process in attempts to DISPROVE it or find conditions under which it fails to accurately predict the real world. This is the fundamental process by which science advances.
Einstein did not accept much of Quantum Mechanics and his own theories of Special and General Relativity are still being challenged and tested by experimental and theoretical physicists every day. The Big Bang theory is similarly being actively and vigorously challenged by scientists on a daily basis.
[quote author="JustThis"]Now maybe some of you here, like gmobus, can understand and do the math that these equations demand, I cannot. Which leaves me in the same position of a typical villager several millenia ago having to take the word of the local priest or witch doctor as to the ultimate nature of the world. Now if you want to accept that these theories are true are you also willing to accept all the things that go with them?.
It is not necessary for any layman or any scientist to "take the word of the local priest or witch doctor as to the ultimate nature of the world" as an article of faith. The scientific method and process itself provides the assurance that if theories are invalid, they will eventually be found not to accurately predict the real world and will therefore be disproved. In the mean time, theories for which the observed evidence is consistent are accepted as "provisionally valid" pending evidence to the contrary.
No one is required to accept these "provisionally valid" theories or "the things that go with them" but, in fact, we are all invited and actively encouraged to objectively challenge and disprove them using the scientific method and process. If we succeed, a Nobel Prize may reward or efforts.
[quote author="JustThis"]In 1922 the Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to Neils Bohr. According to Bohr an electron moving between orbits would disappear from one and reappear instantaneously in another "without visiting the space in between."
If you say so. .
You do not have to accept this theory and, in fact, it may ultimately be found to be invalid. You do not have to accept anyone's word for it.
However, it is the theoretical basis for most modern electronics including your television set, cell phone, computer, Ipod and the Internet to name just a few. It is only because scientists and engineers have been able to use the predictions of this "provisionally valid" theory that such devices "seem to work" .............so far!
Of course, if you don't believe the theory, you are perfectly free to turn each of your electronic devices off and pray to God to provide an alternate solution!
As soon as a "local priest or witch doctor" uses his or her theory of the "ultimate nature of the world" to reliably, objectively and repeatedly predict the operation of the real world it will be treated as science………..until then it will be rightly regarded as irrational myth.
[quote author="JustThis"]Here is a sample of where modern physics now stands regarding the structure of the universe from a superstring perspective. "The heterotic string consists of a closed string that has two types of vibrations, clockwise and counterclockwise which are treated differently. The clockwise vibrations live in ten-dimensional space. The counterclockwise vibrations live in twenty-six-dimensional space, of which sixteen dimensions have been compacted
If you say so.
String Theory is still highly controversial in both scientific and philosophic circles and is far from being accepted as even "provisionally valid". The primary reason is that (so far) it has yielded no verifiable predictions of the real (observable) world and therefore cannot be objectively tested. In this sense, it may be closer to "religion" than "science".
[quote author="MJ"] Why this desire to replace "religious cosmologies" with something else unless one is, consciously or unconsciously, trying to create yet another belief system? Why bother to do that?
Because "religious cosmologies" are not useful in predicting the way that the real world works!
The purpose of science is not to "replace religious cosmologies with another belief system" but rather to objectively and verifiably explain and predict the way the world really works.

The more I consider The End of Faith, the more ashamed I become of my own field of clinical psychology. Consider this - if someone walks into my office with a certain belief that they will eventually be abducted by aliens who will perform experiments on them, they would be assigned a rather heavy duty diagnosis and be referred for antipsychotic medications. On the other hand, if someone comes into my office with a certain belief that eventually Jesus Christ will return to the earth and lift them, and everyone else who believes precisely as they do into eternal salvation (pearly gates and all), they are given a free pass. My license would be on the line if I questioned their beliefs. I would be considered to have a lack of respect for diversity.
Actually, this probably makes more sense in the field of psychology, which is a pseudo-science to begin with, than in truly scientific fields. A parallel can be drawn between psychology and religion. There are several different "sects" of psycholgy that each purport to have a monopoly on truth. And the trouble begins when any one of the theories to take itself too literally. Yet, it seems to me that psychology ought to have something to offer to advancing the cause of rationality over "faith". I'm just not sure how this can be accomplished.

Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is when the amniotic sac breaks before 37 weeks of gestation and labor has not started within 1 hour. The sac contains amniotic fluid and the developing baby. In PPROM, the amniotic fluid inside the sac leaks or gushes out of the vagina. This is also known as your water breaking.
PPROM increases the risks of certain pregnancy complications, including:
- Preterm delivery—baby is born prematurely and is not fully developed
- Placental abruption—placenta separates from the uterus before the baby is delivered
- Prolapsed umbilical cord—umbilical cord is squeezed between the baby and the pelvis
- Infection in the uterus or baby
- Miscarriage
Call your doctor right away if you suspect that your water has broken.
Risk Factors
The following factors may increase your chance of PPROM:
- PPROM in earlier pregnancies
- Infection in the amniotic sac
- Other infections in mother (chlamydia, bacterial vaginosis)
- Preterm labor
- Amniocentesis
- Bleeding during the second and third trimester
- Certain procedures used to treat abnormal conditions of the cervix (such as cervical conization)
- Lung disease during pregnancy
- Connective tissue disease
- Nutritional deficits
- Low body mass index
- Low socio-economic status
- Smoking during pregnancy
The main symptom of PPROM is fluid leaking from the vagina. You may experience a sudden gush of fluid or a slow, constant trickle. It can be difficult to distinguish between a slow amniotic trickle and urine. Your doctor can do simple tests to determine this.
PPROM also increases the risk of infection. Symptoms include a fever above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius). If you have any of these symptoms, call your doctor right away.
To diagnose PPROM, the doctor may do the following tests:
- Visual exam—the doctor may be able to see a trickle of fluid through the cervix, or a pool of fluid collected behind the cervix
- A nitrazine paper test—the doctor puts a small amount of fluid on a piece of paper to see if it is amniotic fluid
- Look at the fluid under a microscope to see if it is amniotic fluid
- Ultrasound—using sound waves, the doctor examines the baby and amniotic sac to see if there is plenty of fluid and the baby is doing well
The doctor will also check you for fever and other signs of infection. He will monitor your baby for any signs of distress.
Treatment of PPROM depends on when it occurs in the pregnancy. There are other considerations as well which your doctor will discuss with you.
34 weeks or longer of gestation
The doctor will:
- Monitor the baby's heart rate
- Induce labor by giving you medicines
- Possibly give antibiotics
32-33 weeks of gestation
The doctor may:
- Induce labor if your baby's lungs have matured enough
- Give antibiotics
- Possibly give steroids to help your baby's lungs develop faster
- Try to delay delivery until completion of 33 weeks gestation
24-31 weeks of gestation
The doctor will provide treatment with antibiotics and steroids. The doctor may attempt to delay delivery until completion of 33 weeks gestation.
Less than 24 weeks of gestation
The doctor may admit you to the hospital for bed rest and to monitor you and your baby. Twenty-four weeks of gestation is about the youngest a baby can be born. The doctor will discuss the risks and benefits of your treatment options.
Researchers are investigating ways to prevent PPROM. Taking preventive antibiotics during the second and third trimester may reduce your risk. You can also take steps for a healthier pregnancy, like quitting smoking.

How to use BTM as the transaction manager in Tomcat 6.x
These instructions have been verified against BTM 1.3.1.
Step 1: Copy the BTM jars
Copy the following jars from the BTM distribution to the Tomcat
lib/ directory:
- btm-1.3.1.jar
- geronimo-jta_1.0.1B_spec-1.0.1.jar
- slf4j-api-1.5.2.jar
- slf4j-jdk14-1.5.2.jar
- btm-tomcat55-lifecycle.jar (it works with both Tomcat 5.5 and Tomcat 6)
You will also need to copy your JDBC driver's JAR file in that same folder. In this example, we've used Derby 10.3.2.1 so we copied
derby.jar in Tomcat's
lib/ directory.
Step 2: Configure BTM as the transaction manager
Windows: Create a file named
setenv.bat with the following commands under Tomcat's
bin/ directory:
Unix: Create a file named
setenv.sh with the following commands under Tomcat's
bin/ directory:
Now create a file named
btm-config.properties with the following properties under Tomcat's
conf/ directory:
Then edit the file named
server.xml under Tomcat's
conf/ directory. Under this line:
add this one:
<Listener> tag will make sure BTM is started when Tomcat starts up and shutdown when Tomcat shuts down.
The next step is to edit the file named
context.xml under Tomcat's
conf/ directory. Under this line:
add this one:
<Transaction> tag will bind the transaction manager at the standard JNDI location
Finally, create an empty file named
resources.properties under Tomcat's
conf/ directory.
Step 3: Configure datasources that are transaction aware
You have to put your datasources configurations in Tomcat's
conf/resources.properties file. Here's an example of using BTM with a DataSource that implements javax.sql.XADataSource:
This will create a
bitronix.tm.resource.jdbc.PoolingDataSource that implements
javax.sql.DataSource and interacts with the
javax.sql.XADataSource provided in this instance by Derby.
If your database vendor does not provide an
XADataSource, you can use BTM's
bitronix.tm.resource.jdbc.lrc.LrcXADataSource as the
XADataSource to allow your database connections to be controlled by the transaction manager:
Again, we've used Derby as an example, but as the
LrcXADataSource uses only the class name and url of a
java.sql.Driver, you can use it with any database providing a JDBC driver.
Step 4: Configure transaction manager and datasources initialization in your META-INF/context.xml
In the web application where you want one or more datasource to be used, you have to create a META-INF/context.xml file.
<Resource> tags will bind a bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceObjectFactory object each, passing it a javax.naming.Reference containing a javax.naming.StringRefAddr containing the datasource's
uniqueName as
bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceObjectFactory class will return the datasource previously configured in in Tomcat's
conf/resources.properties with the specified
uniqueName when it is fetched from JNDI.
Step 5: Configure datasources references in your web.xml
Before your code can access configured datasources via JNDI ENC URLs, you need to declare resource references in your
Now you can do JNDI lookups on those URLs to access the configured datasources:
and you can do JNDI lookups on this URL to access the transaction manager:

So temps are below zero here for the past 2 weeks and I have a NorthFace jacket for $223.00 that won't zip. From the day it arrived, the zipper was messed up. I believe the store said I could return for repair. Considering I needed the jacket, I figured it would be okay. Now, in frigid temps I've got a jacket I thought would last for many years that is somewhat useless. I've heard about other zipper problems with this coat. Will hesitate to buy any more NF products in the future although the jacket is super warm and I love their other stuff.
I bought this when I was already tolerating the misery of New York winters. I got really sick and needed a coat- stat! When I opened the box, I was overjoyed! It didn't matter if the coat looked good or not- but I needed a darn coat. To my pleasant surprise, it fit like a glove, and was very flattering on my body. I got a lot of compliments from my friends, and all the while standing in the cold! The hood never fell off, which is a problem many seem to have, thanks to the convenient toggles at the neck. I give this product 5/5 stars for comfort, style, and sheer awesomeness! ;)
We all hate the cold weather, let's be honest. No one loves going outside and instantly becoming numb. Well once you get married, the woman is no longer willing to take out the dog and asks you because... yup, it's too cold. What better way to fix this than the parka that will always keep you toasty, no matter what! I thought I had come up with a brilliant idea, buying my wife this parka so that she feels warm, stylish AND sexy while taking the dog out to unload. While this parka did just that - made her feel warm, stylish and sexy - she wants to feel that way under her own terms which doesn't include taking the dog out. So while I'm still freezing my rear off and picking up frozen poop, she is completely warm, stylish and sexy standing on the porch laughing while watching me slip into hypothermia.
I was so excited to get this jacket, but after about a week I began to notice threads coming loose. I was disappointed when my zipper broke after less than a month. I have always loved northface products, but this one had major issues in normal conditions. I hope the company will fix the issues with their lifetime guarantee!
This jacket is by far the best for winter. It's long enough and super warm. The hood is detachable which is always nice. I love the North Face logo on the front and the back shoulder.
I ordered this jacket because I saw many good reviews however my experience was not perfect. I ordered the vintage white and I love the color and fit was true to size. The only problem was while stepping off of a large rock the zipper easily ripped off of the jacket at the bottom. North Face is going to replace it but currently exchanges are taking 8 weeks so Michigan winter will be close to over if not over by then. I love the jacket and now that they are on sale I am tempted to buy another even though the first one wasnt the best experience. STILL love the jacket and how warm it keeps me!
Bought this coat for my sister as a birthday gift. She lives in Rochester right now and not at all use to cold weather.She always complains me regarding the cold weather, so she loved this coat. It's so light, warm and she loved the length and fit.

Dog Spleen Tumor
Dog Spleen Tumor
Spleen tumors are very aggressive. Hemangiosarcoma is the type of spleen tumor that is most common in dogs. There is little time after diagnosis that can be spared before treatment is begun. The spleen is a very vascular organ. It is the storehouse of blood. Its job is to remove damaged and old cells and this helps the immune system. It is also one organ that a dog can survive without. Hemangiosarcomas are formed in the blood vessels. It is very aggressive. It can also rupture which would cause the animal to bleed to death. Dogs will get it more often than cats and the Labrador Retriever, the Golden Retriever and the German Shepherd Dog all seem to be more prone to it.
Signs and Symptoms
The symptoms of spleen tumors are not specific. They may have weakness, Dog Loss of Appetite and consequently Dog Weight Loss. There may be Dog Swollen Abdomen and even sudden death if it ruptures.
Early diagnosis is very important to improve the prognosis. The physical examination by your vet may reveal a mass in the abdomen. If so, x-rays and other imaging studies may be ordered if necessary.
Treatment Options
Surgery is the only treatment that proves to be successful. It may be followed by Dog Cancer Chemotherapy to slow the rate of metastasis in other organs. Most dogs will return to their homes within 48 hours after surgery. Bleeding is the most common complication and therefore your dog may receive transfusions before surgery. Often when the vet opens the abdomen their visual examination may reveal a significant amount of metastasis. It is then your decision as to whether or not the surgery should proceed. Realizing that the metastasis will continue to cause undo pain for your dog may lead you to the decision to euthanize your dog rather than put them through follow up treatment and continued pain. Or you may instead opt to provide Dog Palliative Cancer Care by improving the quality of your dog's life.
If surgery cannot be performed for whatever reason, chemotherapy may be the only course available. This is often not successful. It is at these times that loving dog owners must decide if they are there for their dog; or if their dog is there for them.
Pain in Dogs with cancer
There is no doubt that any type of Dog Cancer in your dog will cause pain. The degree of Dog Pain varies with the location of the cancer and the treatment that you decide to pursue with the recommendation of your veterinarian. Cancer is not the only thing that causes the pain, but the treatment can cause pain as well. Post operative treatment will include a considerable amount of pain. Your vet will give you a prescription for analgesics to relieve pain. They should be given as directed. Prevention of the severe pain will enable your dog to continue with some of their normal activities.
A dog's normal reaction to pain is a defense mechanism which will cause them to retreat and become distant from their normal activities. You, as a caring dog owner, can prevent this by controlling your dog's pain. Things can happen quickly and you should observe your dog closely.
Diet during cancer and treatment
You need to discuss an adequate nutritional state for your dog. They will need adequate nutrition to maintain their immune systems which will help them fight the disease and maintain some of their normal activities. There are many different types of Dog Cancer Diets and Dog Cancer Dietary Supplements that can enhance your dog's wellbeing.

To choose the correct divorce forms, first answer the questions below, then select your forms:
With Children: Use the "with children" court forms if:
Without Children: A divorce is considered to be without children if the spouses do not have minor child together, the Wife is not pregnant, and the Wife did not give birth during the marriage to a child from another relationship. In those situations, use the "without children" court forms.
Agree: If you and your spouse agree on all the issues of your divorce from the start of the process, AND you can both sign and notarize the same document, you can complete one Joint Petition form.
Do Not Agree: If you do not agree on all key issues at the start of your divorce, then choose a& link under "Do not agree" in the table below. Later in the process, if you can reach an agreement with your spouse, you can sign and file a "Stipulation"(agreement) form to finish the case.
IMPORTANT! Talk to a lawyer about your legal rights and how an agreement will affect you before you sign anything. If you have been physically or emotionally abused by your spouse, be careful when trying to reach an agreement on the divorce. Your safety is most important. Mediation resources are available at Settle Out of Court (ADR).
You can complete divorce forms using an online document assembly tool called I-CAN!, or you can download and print the forms to fill them out by hand.
Yes, agree on all issues at start of divorce.

Limited situations: If both spouses agree on all issues when starting divorce AND will sign a joint document, AND were married less than 8 years with no real estate, total debts under $8000, total personal property value less than $25,000, and no domestic abuse, then they may use the Summary Dissolution without Children form packet. Read the law on "summary" divorce at MN Statutes §518.195 to see if you qualify.

Update: The GroovyFX Project has moved!
Please join us at our new site. This page will be taken down once all information has been migrated.
Module OverviewGroovyFX provides a Groovy binding for JavaFX 2.0.
GroovyFX is an API that makes working with JavaFX in Groovy much simpler and more natural to those well-versed in Groovy. GroovyFX is focused on leveraging the Builder pattern for JavaFX applications, but more than that, it leverages some of the DSL capabilities that Groovy provides and makes the Groovy based JavaFX code easier to write and, just as important, easier to read. For example, JavaFX colors can be set using pseudo variables, like red or blue.
The primary goal of GroovyFX is to make JavaFX development simpler and more concise than what it takes in Java. This is done via numerous built-in features that Groovy provides, including the Tree Structured Language supported through Groovy's Builder framework that makes declaring a JavaFX SceneGraph more closely resemble the actual SceneGraph itself. This is done through GroovyFX's SceneGraphBuilder object, that supports all the Controls, Shapes, Effects, and other JavaFX objects, as well as support for using Groovy closures for event handling.
Features include a SceneGraphBuilder, a TimelineBuilder and Groovy DSL features to handle JavaFX objects, enumerations, binding, and paints/colors.
The following screenshots show two GroovyFX applications, one demonstrating the visual effect features available with JavaFX and the other demonstrating the JavaFX Charts. The ChartDemo.groovy source is listed below the screen snapshots.
