  Absolute Exotics Cattery - Bengal Cats & Kittens
Our chausie kittens also receive a large amount of attention from the time they are born until the time they are adopted out.
Our Bengals and Chausies are raised in an environment with a young 5 year old child, two dogs, a large parrot, and of course multiple cats causing them to be really tolerable to others when sharing their living environment.
And it's very important to find a breeder that you can trust will be there for you before, during, and after the purchase of your kitten in case you may require additional information or mentorship during the wonderful experience of researching, purchasing, and then raising your Bengal or Chausie cat or kitten.

 Lighting Equipment and Techniques Forum: WEEKLY LIGHTING THEME: Creative lighting from large light sources
A large light source placed a long way from the subject is much smaller, in relative terms, than the same light source placed close to the subject, so if you move it further away the light will not be as diffused.
To get broad specular highlights, where the highlights are large and gentle and you can see 'through' them to the subject underneath, we normally use a softbox at least 3 times the size of the subject, and we use it so close to the subject that we can have problems getting it out of shot.
This is simply a large reflector, often made from polystyrene and the light is simply bounced off it on to your subject.

 Review: The Absolute at Large   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The Absolute at Large (1922) is one of the better novels by Czechoslovakian writer Karl Capek.
Unfortunately, he discovers that the pantheistic doctrine that "God is all things" is literally true; therefore, when matter is destroyed, a certain amount of divine principle ("the absolute") is released.
Persons who get a dose of this holy radiation become highly religious, begin preaching, and in extreme cases, heal the sick and perform miracles.

 Aperture Response Corrections   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The ratios of pairs of observations of the same object obtained through the small and large apertures, or in point and trail modes were averaged together to determine the mean S/L and T/L spectral ratios.
Because centering errors in the small aperture can lead to large variations in the overall observed flux level for individual spectra, it is impossible to determine an absolute S/L ratio.
Investigators should be aware that absolute fluxes for small-aperture data are significantly less reliable than those of large-aperture data.

Welcome to the Water Cooler, a message board run by Absolute Write for writers and editors.
I'm personally surprised that the idea of using large numbers of the Predator B (the armed version) hasn't been floated out there...since technically, crossing the border (especially with the consent of the Mexican government) is an act of war.
Of course some will merely travel farther to make the crossing, and the increased difficulty will result in more hardship (deaths per thousand?) along the way, but something has to be done to stem the tide.
