That is, until you take note of even the smallest details in their appearance. Knowledge is power, whether you’re an animal control officer or animal Coat Length shelter employee who needs to identify cats regularly, or you want to identify your own cat. This guide covers cats’ traits from their overall looks, like coat pattern, to their tiniest features, like whisker color. Let’s use our office cats as examples: • Oliver (left): neutered male, shorthair, solid black, pale green eyes, black Hairless whiskers, a black nose, and black Hairless cats have no fur. paw pads. • Charles (right): neutered male, shorthair, brown mackerel tabby with spots toward his rear, yellow-green eyes, white whiskers with some black at the roots, a pink-brown nose, and black paw pads.

  • Herding Cats: Infosec Follies
    Herding Cats: Infosec Follies October 2012 Herding Cats: Infosec Follies 2 Here’s a hot sports opinion for you: I think our industry is terrible at information risk analysis and management. There is a significant gap between what information security professionals consider high risk and what business professionals consider high risk. I’ve been in those meetings where information security has had their legs cut out from under them, but I’ve also been in meetings where open checkbooks for security were passed around like month-old Halloween candy1. There are a number of reasons for this; let’s explore a few here. The most glaring omission is our repeated usage of inaccurate (or inconsistent) historical data. If we are terrible at forecasting when and where events will occur and their impact to our business, we look no better than the sales person who forecasts a 75% miss in the last week of the quarter. So we take an ultra conservative approach to try and cover our bases. There are a bunch of you out there who have done this successfully for a number of years, and so far you haven’t been bit. There used to be an old saying (which probably still exists in some circles, but I’m going to pretend it doesn’t anymore) in the PCI DSS compliance world that went like this: “You are compliant until you are compromised.” Meaning, it didn’t matter what you reported to your processor as long as you were breach free. The moment that breach hit, however, you were in a world of hurt as your misrepresentation of compliance status came to light.

  • Monthly Blog/ 117
    SEPTEMBER 2020 MONTHLY BLOG/ 117 AN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY FOLLY-BUILDER & CAT-LOVER If citing, please kindly acknowledge copyright © Penelope J. Corfield (2020) Public monuments to cats – as opposed to literary, artistic and musical celebrations1 – are rare to find, especially dating from the eighteenth century. So this majestic example deserves full appreciation. The lordly cat sits atop a giant Grecian vase, all forming the substantial Cat Monument.2 It was designed in 1749 and built c.1770 in the new weatherproof composite known as Coade Stone.3 Erected at Shugborough Park in Staffordshire, the Monument was commissioned by Thomas Anson (c.1695-1773). He was the felinophile, who owned the estate and had the wealth as well as the space to indulge his taste for architectural patronage in full. Curiously enough, the identity of this publicly honoured cat remains uncertain. One strong possibility is that it commemorates Thomas Anton’s own favoured pet, named Khouli-Khan. This cat was the last of a line of Persian cats owned by the family. Hence, behind the luxuriant mustachios on the Monument’s lordly feline, the statue may show the round face and short muzzle that is characteristic of that particular breed. 1 Another possibility, however, is that the honoured cat was the adventurous moggy who circumnavigated the globe in the years 1740-44 with Admiral George Anson (1697-1762). He was the much admired younger brother of Thomas Anson. And the childless George Anson had bequeathed his great fortune, based upon Spanish treasure, to his older sibling. As a result, some of the monuments and memorabilia at Shugborough Park were devised as fraternal tributes to the circumnavigator.

  • Download Urinetown Theatre Program
    From the Director Welcome to the UAH campus and thank you for joining us tonight. Now that the cold dark days of winter are fading, we are here to celebrate the coming of spring with a fun Broad- way musical. This talented and devoted cast of players, artists, directors and technicians have been toiling through the winter months to prepare this wonderful piece of theatre to share with you, our humble audience. UAH Theatre is proud to be a part of this rich artistic community and privileged to offer this creative study to our students. Please enjoy the show and be sure to tell your friends that we are here producing live theatre at Huntsville’s own University. David Harwell - Director About the Musical Winner of three Tony awards and one of the most uproariously funny musicals in recent years, URINETOWN is a hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he’s had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, URINETOWN is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Greg Kotis had the idea for Urinetown while traveling in Europe.

  • Getting the Joke the Humor Found in Something Rotten!
    Getting the Joke The humor found in Something Rotten! The laugh lines in the Broadway hit Something Rotten! flow from different sources. Some come at the expense of William Shakespeare, the rock star of his day, here played as a world- weary writer who finds being famous so much more enjoyable than actually coming up with new ideas. Some are pointed at musical theater itself, a veritable feast for fans and geeks who adore Rent, Cats, A Chorus Line, Chicago, Les Misérables, Annie and dozens of other iconic musicals from the Broadway cannon. Others are bawdy, with the judgmental Puritan leader Brother Jeremiah helplessly slipping into sexually- tinged double entendre, and his daughter Portia experiencing a sonnet read by her writer-beau Nigel Bottom as if it were their first time (and not in a literary sense). The show’s humor, the work of brothers Karey and Wayne Kirkpatrick (score), Karey and John O’Farrell (book), director-choreographer Casey Nicholaw and music arranger Glen Kelly, has been tested, vetted and carefully calibrated so that theatergoers can have a good time whether they know a lot or only a little about Shakespeare and/or musical theater. O’Farrell recalls, “We’d be sitting around, trying to write a song or a scene, and Wayne and Karey would say, ‘You know that song from Sunday in the Park With George?’ And I’d say no. And I’d say, ‘You know that thing in The Taming of the Shrew?’ And they’d say no,” O’Farrell recalls. “We were conscious of not wanting to be so inside that you could only get it if you had seen the most obscure musicals,” Wayne Kirkpatrick says.
