Inspired by the firming activity of viper venom peptides, the Rodial Snake Oil harnesses an innovation in syn-ake tripeptide technology which works to help smooth out uneven skin tone for a renewed and plumped appearance. This luxurious facial oil drenches skin with a 5-in-1 oil blend featuring babassu, almond and peach kernel oil, rich in omega 3 and 6, vitamin E and antioxidants to help soften and condition the skin with hydration.

Gently massage 2-3 drops onto a cleansed face and next, paying particular attention to areas with expression lines. Allow to dry thoroughly. For best results use twice daily before applying your serum or moisturizer

Peggy Jones was mowing her lawn Tuesday when a snake fell from the sky and wrapped itself around her arm. As she tried to rid of the clinging reptile, it began snapping at her face and broke her glasses.

Hello my name is Dave Parent and I an EE faculty at SJSU . I have been using Drop Snake for some time to teach lover division engineering students the fundamentals of semiconductor fabrication metrology.

The students really come alive when we use Drop snake. I can not seem to figure out how to use Drop snake with the browser version of ImageJ. The online videos do not seem to cover jar file based plug ins. Any help will be appreciated.

The pictures aren't great because they're cell phone pictures - the best camera is the one you have with you. Still, this little snake (probably two feet long, and a common garter snake) found an army of friends on Facebook this morning, so I thought he was worth sharing here. I suspect he moved on to a more stable bed.

As for me, I kept working on the hillside by the road. It's steep enough that everything there is twice as tiring as usual, and it was infested with bedstraw. At least I got (most of) the bedstraw out before it flowered and set seed, unlike last year, when it was a giant ugly mat over the (also invasive) goutweed that fills most of that space.

Written by Aur&eacutelien Stadler and Daniel SageContact angle is a simple and yet powerful tool for characterizing three-phase junctions. The technique of the sessile drop is today the most widely used method to measure this parameter. The commercial softwares available today are still very limited. They are often dependant of one measurement setup, and may fail under non-standard conditions.

We propose, here, two new methods to high-accuracy measure contact angles:

  • DropSnake is based on B-spline snakes (active contours) to shape the drop.
  • LBADSA is based on the fitting of the Young-Laplace equation to the image data
These methods have been implemented as a Java plug-in for the ImageJ software and we make it freely available. See the "free software" section to download.

Warning:Some of the unzip tools produce a drop_analysis folder inside of a drop_analysis folder. This hierarchical structure is not compatible for the image plugins.The correct structure is: ImageJ plugins drop_analysis drop_analysis.jar

I'm just curious I cannot tell the difference between shoot the rapids new ride for Cedar Point 2010 and Snake River Falls water ride. Except Shoot the Rapids has two drops and Snake River only has 1 big one. I mean can someone tell me the two differences between these water rides unless they are completely the same?

The Main thing is probably the theming that makes the ride a much different experience. Another small difference is Snake River Falls is made by Arrow (inventor of almost all log flumes in the 20th century) and STR is made by Intamin.

Yes they are pretty much the same as far as ride experience goes except Snake River Falls gets straight to the punch, whereas Shoot The Rapids takes a long time going around slow curves with almost no themeing(unless you consider random signs attached to fences themeing).

Yes soakcity2006, the random signs ARE considered themeing. I can't see how people don't consider anything around STR themeing. The ride is themed just fine! Let the trees grown in and it'll be wicked awesome! Heck, I think it's pretty awesome as it is now, it's TONS of fun! And since I've been on both SRF and STR, I can say no they are not basically the same. That is unless you consider what John said. :)

I don't like water rides much and to me I feel like there are many more effective ways to get that wet that take up much less space and cost a lot less (like the fountain on the main midway, which looks like the kids have more fun in that then on any of the rides). So I am judging the ride based on how wet you get and how much value you get as a ride. The hills are decent but the rest of the ride is painfully slow being that there is not much to look at. As a complete package Shoot the Rapids doesn't come close to replacing WWL. I am not saying that it is a dissapointment but I am saying that it doesn't add any real value to CP and sits on a pretty large footprint.

what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.
Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Since shoot the rapids water ride was just put in...are they tearing down Snake River Falls for good??? I hope not..because I've never been to cedar point and it would be worth riding on a hot day you know. I thought STR had like special elements added to the ride to make it different than Snake River..like was'nt it supposed to have a fog tunnel with mist I heard..and a couple of waterfall features like the second drop at the end has rocks..are the rocks just their or they have water flowing over the rocks? And last after the first drop I saw in the animated video you pass under a waterfall canyon is this true or false? At least that's what I saw in the Animation video. But finally are they both completely the same?

I don't think Snake River Falls is going anywhere too soon. They repainted it this year and actually looks pretty nice. Shoot the Rapids is very different than Snake. Rapids has a fully misted tunnel, that you can't see anything in. There is a few water features spilling down over the rockwork on the island, water falls and smaller water sprays. These don't directly hit the boat but are more off to the side. The second drops rocks have waterfall rapids going down them and have spray that hits the bottom sides of the boats to make it look like you are going thru rapids. It's a great ride and they are not the same, other than they have water, boats and hills.

so it's just the misted tunnel in the beginning of the ride that's the only special feature they have..what about the waterfall canyon that you go under after the first drop? Was this just put in as a fake most likely in the animated video or is this real? When I saw the animated video I heard the waterfall canyon gets you a little bit soaked..if like I said if it's even in the ride..

Maybe it's just me, but I don't see where White Water Landing was the gold standard of water rides. People keep saying how awesome it was and how much they miss it, but it's biggest selling point is apparently that it was a water ride that you didn't get too wet on.

I rode it plenty of times and as far as I remember, it had all the drawbacks Shoot the Rapids supposedly has - slow parts, no themeing - except Shoot the Rapids also has the added deterrent of being a water ride that gets you wet. The nerve.

It was a fun ride, and you got wet but not soaked. That's why it was a good ride. There are many log flumes out there that are much better than wwl ever was, but it was a great ride for cedar point. It filled in a void. We did not go on it for the theming(allthough I really liked the cave), we went on it because it was a hot day and a splash of water is all you needed to cool down. And the view from the top flume was relaxing before the big drop.

The fact that they already have 2 other water rides that you get soaked on is the problem I have. Why do you have to get soaked? I would love str if you did not get soaked on it. Most amusement parks have had a log ride since the 70's, and to this day most of them still have a good sized line. Why?...Because they are fun. Again....not everyone wants to get soaked.

Thanks to Arden resident Jon Elliston, who live Tweeted the appearance and subsequent chase of a neighbor's pet llama on his property and at the Cliffs at Walnut Cove, I got to spend a good chunk of my Saturday literally chasing a llama. Appropriately named "Phantom," the 8-year-old llama galloped through pastures, dodged its pursuers and sashayed across a high-end golf course before its owner, Dave Nus, was able to get a rope on him in the woods bordering Pisgah National Forest.

Question: Here's the question: Why did the Wildlife Resources people turn the snakes loose? I've heard they let rattlers and copperheads loose, and that they even dropped some of them by plane and used parachutes. Don't we already have enough of them biting people?
