Liturgical combs were decorated combs, usually of ivory or bone, used in preparing the priest for the Mass. The ritual combing of priests' hair may have begun when Christianity became the Roman state religion early in the 4th century AD. They were still being made in the 12th century; and references to their use appear in ecclesiastical rituals until the 16th century.

Best known as Brunt (Ferengi) and Weyoun (Vorta) on Deep Space 9, and Shran (Andorian) on Enterprise but also played a ton of different roles. See memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Jeffrey_Combs for a complete list. He's also hysterical and extremely nice.
We enjoyed seeing the Comb-crested Jacana or Lotus birds walking on the Lotus leaves on the South Alligator River, Kakadu.
The tour operator was very excited to see this interaction between a Jacana and a Water Dragon as it was the first time he had observed this behaviour.
The Water Dragon was hoping for a feed of eggs or chicks but the adult bird approached the Dragon with its wings wide spread and head down. It walked around for quite a while opening closing its wings while approaching the Dragon from different angles. The Dragon responded by opening its mouth at the bird until it moved away allowing the bird to sit on his eggs again.

Yorùbá people believe that a person’s destiny is determined by their Orí (head).
“Ori is not a divinity. The Ori is what holds an individual destiny. The Ori is in control of one’s daily ups and downs. Ori could be considered as personal god or guardian angel who will accompany each of us for life. Even the gods have their Ori which directs their personal lives. Ori is human consciousness.”- Iyalorisa Omitonade Ifawemimo (priestess and role model to young Yorùbá girls).
Although some Yorùbá people use straightening chemicals and weaves, many people still do use natural soaps, oils, butters and wooden combs. Some combs are elaborately carved or decorated, but this one is simple, with the word ‘love’ written on it. What do you use to treat or style your hair?

Life in rural Utah is filled with rich traditions including raising cattle to show and auction at Utah's State Fair. Sunday morning's line-up began with heifers, younger than a year, being shampooed, blown dry, combed, hair sprayed and hooves polished before entering the ring led by their young handlers. This young cowboy takes his cattle seriously!

Back when I was having Skeinforge troubles I turned off comb because I thought it was causing me troubles. But now that I seem to have a good set of profiles I have decided to start messing with some of the settings I don't normally use. The footed frame vertex on the left was printed without comb while the one on the left was printed with comb. You can clearly see the difference in the holes. I will no longer need to clean out the holes of everything I print.

The Tricolored or Louisiana Heron does not swim but wades in deep water. Audubon called this bird "Lady of the Water" because of its grace and beauty. It resembles the Great Blue Heron but is much smaller and more delicate. Its white belly clearly distinguishes it from all other Herons. It strides briskly through the water, sometimes running after fish and catching them with a thrust of the bill. This action is so fast that it can only be caught with a shutter speed of 1/4000th of a second! Their chicks have a reddish coat but turn blue with age.
The name Louisiana Heron is very misleading because it also lives in coastal states from North Carolina to Texas, and especially in Florida.
