I use 3.4 on my ipad which is where I am now, but I mainly use my new 15" MacBook Pro retina running mountain lion so I don't know what version of WordPress I'm running there off hand. My blog uses Chateau and I'd like to hide all the tags from future and, if possible, past posts. I will say I'm confused about the lingo here in other posts I've seen about this question so please forgive me on that...,I am surprised I've gotten this far by blogging for three months and inserting media!

Treasuries Fall After 2-Year Note Auction as Fed Meets
April 24 (Bloomberg) -- Yields on benchmark 10-year Treasury notes rose for the first time in a week after the U.S. sold $35 billion of two-year securities and Federal Reserve policy makers began a two-day meeting.
The notes drew a yield of 0.270 percent, compared with a forecast of 0.278 percent in a Bloomberg News survey of nine of the Fed's 21 primary dealers, as investors continue to seek the safest assets. Treasury will sell $35 billion in five-year notes tomorrow and $29 billion of 10-year debt the next day.
"The market is a tad weaker as we are giving back some of the recent rally, but we are still at very low yield levels as the market waits for the Fed," said Guy LeBas, chief fixed-income strategist in Philadelphia at Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, which oversees $12 billion in Fixed income assets. "Moderation in the U.S. economic data doesn't seem to be going away and no one wants to do much before the Fed has its say tomorrow."
The yield on the benchmark 10-year note rose four basis points, or 0.04 percentage point, to 1.97 percent at 5 p.m. in New York, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader prices. The 2 percent note due February 2022 fell 11/32, or $3.44 per $1,000 face amount, to 100 7/32. The yield on the current two-year note rose one basis point to 0.27 percent.
The two-year notes sold today drew a bid-to-cover ratio, which gauges demand by comparing total bids with the amount of securities offered, of 3.76, highest since September, compared with an average of 3.56 for the past 10 sales.
'Lot of Uncertainty'
Indirect bidders, an investor class that includes foreign central banks, purchased 32.1 percent of the notes, compared with an average of 32.4 percent for the past 10 sales.
Direct bidders, non-primary-dealer investors that place their bids directly with the Treasury, purchased 7.8 percent of the notes at the sale, the lowest since February 2011, compared with an average of 13.5 percent for the past 10 auctions.
Two-year notes have gained 0.1 percent this year, compared with a 0.2 percent gain for Treasuries overall, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch indexes.
"The Fed is still on hold and there is a lot of uncertainty with regard to Europe and the economy and that is keeping demand for Treasuries pretty high," said Scott Sherman, an interest-rate strategist at primary dealer Credit Suisse Group AG in New York. "The market is focused on the FOMC, and we won't do much either way until that is out of the way."
Trading Volume
Trading volume climbed to $216.7 billion after dropping April 20 to the lowest level this year, with about $130 billion of Treasuries changing hands through ICAP Plc, the world's largest interdealer broker. The average in 2012 is $249 billion. Volume reached $439 billion on March 14, the highest since August.
"People don't want to short the Treasury market," said Paul Horrmann, a broker in New York at Tradition Asiel Securities Inc., an interdealer broker. "The Fed is still going to be keeping rates low till 2014. You can't fight the Fed." A short is a bet the price of a security will drop.
Ten-year yields may be in a range of 2 percent to 2.5 percent with the potential to rise to 2.75 percent in 2012, according to Charles Schwab Corp., which is based in San Francisco and manages $199 billion.
"We don't anticipate that the Fed will change policy this year and it seems unlikely at this juncture that they will engage in more" asset purchases, Kathy A. Jones, a fixed-income strategist at the company, wrote in an e-mail.
'Long' Bets Drop
Investors in Treasuries reduced expectations that prices of the securities will climb as the percentage of so-called long positions dropped in a weekly survey by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The percent of net longs in the firm's all-clients survey dropped to two percentages points, to 23 percent from 25 percent, in the week ended yesterday. The number of outright neutrals was unchanged at 57 percent. The level of outright shorts rose to 21 percent from 19 percent the previous week.
The central bank bought $4.8 billion of Treasuries due from April 2018 to February 2020 today. The purchases are part of the bank's effort to replace $400 billion of shorter-term debt in its holdings with longer maturities to hold down borrowing costs.
U.S. central bankers bought $2.3 trillion of bonds in two rounds of so-called quantitative easing between December 2008 and June. They've also said they will probably keep their target for overnight lending between banks at almost zero at least until late 2014. Chairman Ben S. Bernanke is scheduled to hold a press conference tomorrow.
"Everybody is hoping for relief from insight from the Fed," said Tradition Asiel's Horrmann.

Nyquist, Lundqvist, Iginla are NHL's three stars
Mar 24, 2014, 12:17 PM EDT
Red Wings winger Gustav Nyquist, Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist, and Bruins winger Jarome Iginla are the NHL's three stars of the past week.
From NHL.com:
Nyquist led all players with six goals and tied for the League lead with seven points to help the Red Wings (33-24-14, 80 points) earn seven of a possible eight points and move into the first Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference.
Lundqvist posted a 3-0-0 record with a 1.67 goals-against average, .942 save percentage and one shutout to backstop the Rangers (39-29-4, 82 points) to three consecutive victories, helping the team move into third place in the Metropolitan Division.
Iginla tied for second in the NHL with five goals in four outings to help the Bruins (49 17 5, 103 points) extend their winning streak to 12 games and take over the top spot in the NHL standings. He recorded 2-0—2 in a 4-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild March 17.
Consistent with Detroit's organizational philosophy, the Wings have been patient with Nyquist's development since drafting him 121st overall in 2008. After a good deal of time in college and in the AHL, the 24-year-old is enjoying a breakout season in the NHL, with 23 goals in 46 games.
"We play [in Grand Rapids] the way we do up here and it's a great league to develop in and to learn the pro game," said Nyquist of his AHL experience, per MLive.com.
- ibieiniid - Mar 24, 2014 at 12:18 PM
jk, but he's temporarily filling in the scoring hole Dats left nicely.
- ibieiniid - Mar 24, 2014 at 12:18 PM
I mean Nyquist, if context wasn't enough there.
- 13datsyuk13 - Mar 24, 2014 at 12:43 PM
Tartar and Nyquist remind me of Datsyuk and zetterberg when they were young. This is why the Red Wings are the best organization in sports. They draft well, develop talent, and have guys that stay around and teach "the red wing way".
- pwshrugged - Mar 24, 2014 at 7:33 PM
We're certainly seeing the next wave of young players come in, like we did in the early '00s with Datsyuk and Zetterberg.
Neither are perfect corollaries, though Nyquist strikes me as a hybrid Datsyuk/Zetterberg… he has Z's puck protection skills and Datsyuk's shifty skating. I can see Nyquist wearing an "A" in a couple seasons, honestly. Sheahan reminds of Brendan Shanahan like very few players I've seen, except for being a center and being a better skater. He doesn't have Shanny's shot, but he has that size and offensive awareness and knows how to use 'em. Tatar… yeah, sure, Datsyuk. Not as patient as Datsyuk, though, and a greater defensive liability than some of the other kids.
Of course, that's all to say nothing of Danny DeKeyser.
Did Nyquist play too many NHL games last season to qualify for the Calder Trophy this year?
- bruinsfan55 - Mar 24, 2014 at 2:18 PM
Iggy has been a monster this year, with the exception of the first little of the season. He's consistently scoring goals and playing Bruins style hockey. He's been an awesome fit here. In ways he's already been better than Horton ever was
- c9castine - Mar 24, 2014 at 6:37 PM
good fit and all im not sure why anybody would be surprised by this…its jarome iginla.
hes 36. he had a couple down years with a bad calgary team but thats it. Jaromir Jagr is 43 and playing for the Devils of all teams and is outscoring Iginla.
so, like I said, not taking anything away from him. It just always surprises me when people count a guy out just because hes over the age of 30.

Made You Look...
I bake. I like baseball. Let's go on an adventure! Let's see...I'd say I am a sweet, independent and thoughtful woman who enjoys the simple things in life like getting lost in a conversation over good food, catching an Angels game whenever I can, being a kid for a day at Disneyland, exploring new places to eat and learning about different cultures. I have an amazing family and wonderful friends who I love spending time with. I love a good book that lets my imagination run wild and transports me on an adventure. I have a sweet tooth and will never turn down dark chocolate. My sweet tooth has developed into a baking obsession and I make an awesome dark chocolate peanut butter cup. I am a Pinterest addict and love to get crafty. I'm looking for that serious relationship with someone to goof around with and laugh over silly things. An important point for me is someone who is a gentleman and understands respect - for others and for himself. I am a clichéd romantic and dream of being swept off my feet by an affectionate guy who will wrap in me his arms and put any Nicolas Sparks book (or movie) to shame. Someone that is capable of being spontaneous and adventurous because I really admire a guy that can inspire and teach me new things. I cherish my faith and respect anyone who values theirs. I love my family so a close family relationship is very important to me. Someone that just enjoys all the simple things in life, that in the end, mean so much more. Interested? Don't be shy! Let's get to know each other and see where this goes!

I am asking my neighbors to reelect me to the Pomona City Council, district 6 on November 4th. By voting for me, you will get an educated, honest, hard-working public servant who is dedicated to rebuilding the economic base of our city.
Just this year, the city faced a budget deficit of $10 million. We simply do not have a strong commercial base in Pomona that will generate the tax dollars that we need for improvements in public safety, streets and alley paving, graffiti abatement and tree trimming. Instead, the council chose to reduce the deficit by cutting city jobs and services. Some of these cuts were probably desirable, but certainly not all of them.
This year's ballot will include a measure to increase sales taxes by a penny per dollar to pay for some of these services. I am opposed to such tax increases because they will cause shoppers to look outside our city for many purchases. Wouldn't you drive a few extra miles to save hundreds of dollars on a new or used car or ten or twenty on your major shopping trips? I don't believe that this is the way to solve our budget deficits.
Every candidate running for office supports increases in city services, as do I. I am unique in having a clear and simple plan to increase jobs and business growth to provide the revenues to allow us to make needed improvements. I believe that our city is poised for such growth. This growth must be environmentally sound and visually engaging.
I have already begun to take steps to make our city more inviting to commercial development. We have many new businesses in district six, as well as downtown and throughout the city. Just this summer, I dedicated a new outpatient nursing business, a new classic car dealership, a new car wash and will soon see a new Wing Stop restaurant open in my district. I have commitments to bring in a new "Fresh and Easy" market and Starbucks, as well as a new medical office center and drugstore.
As a resident for forty-six years, I have seen better days and as a seasoned leader, I can visualize better days to come. I am committed to the many improvements we all long for and, most of all I am committed to the job of revitalizing the local economy to make these improvements possible.
Stephen Atchley, Pomona City Council District 6 incumbent

Phoenix Suns
Alvin Gentry: 'Dragic came back a man'
Following in the steps of a future Hall of Famer is never easy, especially when that same living legend leaves for a division rival.
This is the role that was placed upon Phoenix Suns starting point guard Goran Dragic.
After losing star playmaker Steve Nash to the Los Angeles Lakers over the summer, the Suns entered the 2012 offseason with no definite starting point guard for the first time since 2003. The Suns turned to Dragic, an unrestricted free agent who was coming off a career year with the Houston Rockets. Dragic had previously spent his first three NBA seasons in Phoenix.
Dragic was traded to the the Rockets in 2011 while averaging only 7.4 points and 3.1 assists with the Suns. But those numbers, along with his minutes and responsibilities, increased after taking over the starting job in Houston.
"He's a different player than when he left. He went away as a pretty good boy but he came back a man. That's the only way I can say it." Phoenix Suns head coach Alvin Gentry told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo.
In his first eight games as the Suns starting point guard, Dragic has averaged career highs in minutes, points and assists and according to Gentry, has more than lived up to the role of replacing Nash.
"Goran has surpassed all of us, as to what we thought," said Gentry. "We thought he would be a very good player for us but he's playing at a very high level."
Gentry went on to credit Rockets head coach Kevin McHale for turning Dragic into the player he is today.
"His leadership is much better and his confidence is at an all time high," said Gentry. "He feels like he belongs and he feels he can play with anybody in this league. I think attitude is probably three-fourths of the battle and the other is that he's just improved his game. He did a good job and Kevin McHale did a good job with instilling confidence in him and he truly believes in himself."

"I never fully appreciated the impact that having your own published book could have on your business and your direction. What started as a vague idea that would look good and be something to talk about, has now completely reshaped my direction and focus, opened up doors with publications and prominent figures and even led to interest from government bodies. And, quite simply, I would not have started or completed it as quickly as I did - or have produced something as reader friendly as it is, without taking part in Gail and Diane's Course. I am not a natural writer, but I actually found the process easy and enjoyable because of the planning and the ground work that had gone into it before I actually put finger to keyboard. If you have an idea and a desire, then you too can get that book written."

The San Francisco 49ers' appearance in the Super Bowl means Arizona inside linebacker Daryl Washington is headed to the Pro Bowl. Washington, an alternate, will replace San Francisco's NaVorro Bowman in Hawaii, where the Pro Bowl will be played next Sunday. Washington, the first Cardinals linebacker to make the Pro Bowl since Seth Joyner in 1994, led Arizona with a career-high 140 tackles - 110 solo, with nine sacks, 14 tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, an interception, a fumble recovery and six passes defensed. His nine sacks were the most by any NFL inside linebacker. Washington is the second Arizona player to make this Pro Bowl, joining cornerback Patrick Peterson. Washington is in his third NFL season, Peterson his second. Peterson also made the Pro Bowl last year as a punt returner.

The use of a hand operated pointing device for use with a computer and its display has become almost universal. By far the most popular of the various devices is the conventional (mechanical) mouse. A conventional mouse typically has a bottom surface carrying three or more downward projecting pads of a low friction material that raise the bottom surface a short distance above the work surface of a cooperating mouse pad. Centrally located within the bottom surface of the mouse is a hole through which a portion of the underside of a rubber-surfaced steel ball (hereinafter called simply a rubber ball) extends; in operation gravity pulls the ball downward and against the top surface of the mouse pad. The mouse pad is typically a closed cell foam rubber pad covered with a suitable fabric. The low friction pads slide easily over the fabric, but the rubber ball does not skid, but instead rolls as the mouse is moved. Interior to the mouse are rollers, or wheels, that contact the ball at its equator (the great circle parallel to the bottom surface of the mouse) and convert its rotation into electrical signals. The external housing of the mouse is shaped such that when it is covered by the user's hand it appears to have a "front-to-back" axis (along the user's forearm) and an orthogonal "left-to-right" axis. The interior wheels that contact the ball's equator are arranged so that one wheel responds only to rolling of the ball that results from a motion component of the mouse that is along the front-to-back axis, and also so that the other wheel responds only to rolling produced by a motion component along the left-to-right axis. The resulting rotations of the wheels or contact rollers produce electrical signals representing these motion components. (Say, F/B representing Forward and Backward, and L/R representing Left or Right.) These electrical signals F/B and L/R are coupled to the computer, where software responds to the signals to change by a Δx and a Δy the displayed position of a pointer (cursor) in accordance with movement of the mouse. The user moves the mouse as necessary to get the displayed pointer into a desired location or position. Once the pointer on the screen points at an object or location of interest, one of one or more buttons on the mouse is activated with the fingers of the hand holding the mouse. The activation serves as an instruction to take some action, the nature of which is defined by the software in the computer.
Unfortunately, the usual sort of mouse described above is subject to a number of shortcomings. Among these are deterioration of the mouse ball or damage to its surface, deterioration or damage to the surface of the mouse pad, and degradation of the ease of rotation for the contact rollers (say, (a) owing to the accumulation of dirt or of lint, or (b) because of wear, or (c) both (a) and (b)). All of these things can contribute to erratic or total failure of the mouse to perform as needed. These episodes can be rather frustrating for the user, whose complaint might be that while the cursor on the screen moves in all other directions, he can't get the cursor to, say, move downwards. Accordingly, industry has responded by making the mouse ball removable for easy replacement and for the cleaning of the recessed region into which it fits. Enhanced mouse ball hygiene was also a prime motivation in the introduction of mouse pads. Nevertheless, some users become extremely disgusted with their particular mouse of the moment when these remedies appear to be of no avail. Mouse and mouse pad replacement is a lively business.
The underlying reason for all this trouble is that the conventional mouse is largely mechanical in its construction and operation, and relies to a significant degree on a fairly delicate compromise about how mechanical forces are developed and transferred.
There have been several earlier attempts to use optical methods as replacements for mechanical ones. These have included the use of photo detectors to respond to mouse motion over specially marked mouse pads, and to respond to the motion of a specially striped mouse ball. U.S. Pat. No. 4,799,055 describes an optical mouse that does not require any specially pre-marked surface. (Its disclosed two orthogonal one pixel wide linear arrays of photo sensors in the X and Y directions and its state-machine motion detection mechanism make it a distant early cousin to the technique of the incorporated Patents, although it is our view that the shifted and correlated array [pixel pattern within an area] technique of the incorporated Patents is considerably more sophisticated and robust.) To date, and despite decades of user frustration with the mechanical mouse, none of these earlier optical techniques has been widely accepted as a satisfactory replacement for the conventional mechanical mouse. Thus, it would be desirable if there were a non-mechanical mouse that is viable from a manufacturing perspective, relatively inexpensive, reliable, and that appears to the user as essentially the operational equivalent of the conventional mouse. This need could be met by a new type of optical mouse has a familiar "feel" and is free of unexpected behaviors. It would be even better if the operation of this new optical mouse did not rely upon cooperation with a mouse pad, whether special or otherwise, but was instead able to navigate upon almost any arbitrary surface.
An optical mouse may include a housing movable across a work surface, a source of non-coherent light in the movable housing for illuminating the work surface at a low angle of incidence, a two dimensional array of photodetectors in the housing, each of the photo detectors producing an output in response to light reflected from surface irregularities on the illuminated work surface, a memory for storing the photodetector outputs captured at one or more times and circuitry in the housing to track movement of the housing relative to the work surface by comparing at least some of the photo detector outputs captured at a first time with at least some of the photo detector outputs captured at a second time unless a characteristic condition in the photo detector outputs is detected.
The characteristic condition may be that at least a majority of the photo detector outputs captured at the first time are at least nearly uniform, that the photo detector outputs captured at the first time do not represent a focused image, the loss of correlation between the photo detector outputs captured at the first and second times, that the movable housing is not suitably proximate to the work surface, that image features of the surface irregularities are indistinct, that image features of the surface irregularities are each spread out over the photo detector array, that correlation between the photo detector outputs captured at the first and second times produces an array of uniform correlation values or other indication that a valid movement may not be tracked.

An optical mouse images as an array of pixels the spatial features of generally any micro textured or micro detailed work surface below the mouse. The photo detector responses are digitized and may be stored as a frame into memory. Motion produces successive frames of translated patterns of pixel information, which may be compared by autocorrelation to ascertain the direction and amount of movement. A hold feature suspends the production of movement signals to the computer, allowing the mouse to be physically relocated on the work surface without disturbing the position on the screen of the pointer. This may be needed if the operator runs out of room to physically move the mouse further, but the screen pointer still needs to go further. The hold feature may be implemented with an actual button, a separate proximity detector or by detecting the presence of a characteristic condition in the digitized data, such as loss of correlation or velocity in excess of a selected limit. A convenient place for an actual hold button is along the sides of the mouse near the bottom, where the thumb and the opposing ring finger grip the mouse. The gripping force used to lift the mouse engages the hold function. Hold may incorporate a brief delay upon either the release of the hold button, detection of proper proximity or the return of reasonable digitized values. During that delay any illumination control or AGC servo loops stabilize. A new reference frame may taken prior to the resumption of motion detection.
A solution to the problem of replacing a conventional mechanical mouse with an optical counterpart is to optically detect motion by directly imaging, as an array of pixels, the various particular spatial features of a work surface below the mouse, much as human vision is believed to do. In general, this work surface may be almost any flat surface; in particular, the work surface need not be a mouse pad, special or otherwise. To this end the work surface below the imaging mechanism may be illuminated from the side, say, with an infrared (IR) light emitting diode (LED). A surprisingly wide variety of surfaces create a rich collection of highlights and shadows when illuminated with a suitable angle of incidence. That angle is generally low, say, on the order of five to twenty degrees, and we shall term it a "grazing" angle of incidence. Paper, wood, formica and painted surfaces all work well; about the only surface that does not work is smooth glass (unless it is covered with fingerprints!). The reason these surfaces work is that they possess a micro texture, which in some cases may not be perceived by the unaided human senses.
IR light reflected from the micro textured surface is focused onto a suitable array (say, 16�16 or 24�24) of photo detectors. The LED may be continuously on with either a steady or variable amount of illumination servoed to maximize some aspect of performance (e.g., the dynamic range of the photo detectors in conjunction with the albedo of the work surface). Alternatively, a charge accumulation mechanism coupled to the photo detectors may be "shuttered" (by current shunting switches) and the LED pulsed on and off to control the exposure by servoing the average amount of light. Turning the LED off also saves power; an important consideration in battery operated environments. The responses of the individual photo detectors are digitized to a suitable resolution (say, six or eight bits) and stored as a frame into corresponding locations within an array of memory. Having thus given our mouse an "eye", we are going to further equip it to "see" movement by performing comparisons with successive frames.
Preferably, the size of the image projected onto the photo detectors may be a slight magnification of the original features being imaged, say, by two to four times. However, if the photo detectors are small enough it may be possible and desirable to dispense with magnification. The size of the photo detectors and their spacing may be such that there is much more likely to be one or several adjacent photo detectors per image feature, rather than the other way around. Thus, the pixel size represented by the individual photo detectors corresponds to a spatial region on the work surface of a size that is generally smaller than the size of a typical spatial feature on that work surface, which might be a strand of fiber in a cloth covering a mouse pad, a fiber in a piece of paper or cardboard, a microscopic variation in a painted surface, or an element of an embossed micro texture on a plastic laminate. The overall size of the array of photo detectors is preferably large enough to receive the images of several features. In this way, images of such spatial features produce translated patterns of pixel information as the mouse moves. The number of photo detectors in the array and the frame rate at which their contents are digitized and captured cooperate to influence how fast the seeing-eye mouse can be moved over the work surface and still be tracked. Tracking may be accomplished by comparing a newly captured sample frame with a previously captured reference frame to ascertain the direction and amount of movement. One way that may be done is to shift the entire content of one of the frames by a distance of one pixel (corresponds to a photo detector), successively in each of the eight directions allowed by a one pixel offset trial shift (one over, one over and one down, one down, one up, one up and one over, one over in the other direction, etc.). That adds up to eight trials, but we mustn't forget that there might not have been any motion, so a ninth trial "null shift" may also required. After each trial shift those portions of the frames that overlap each other are subtracted on a pixel by pixel basis, and the resulting differences are (preferably squared and then) summed to form a measure of similarity (correlation) within that region of overlap. Larger trial shifts are possible, of course (e.g., two over and one down), but at some point the attendant complexity ruins the advantage, and it is preferable to simply have a sufficiently high frame rate with small trial shifts. The trial shift with the least difference (greatest correlation) can be taken as an indication of the motion between the two frames. That is, it provides a raw F/B and L/R. The raw movement information may be scaled and or accumulated to provide display pointer movement information (Δx and Δy) of a convenient granularity and at a suitable rate of information exchange.
The actual algorithms described in the incorporated Patents (and used by the mouse) are refined and sophisticated versions of those described above. For example, let us say that the photo detectors were a 16�16 array. We could say that we initially take a reference frame by storing the digitized values of the photo detector outputs as they appear at some time t0. At some later time t1 we take a sample frame and store another set of digitized values. We wish to correlate a new collection of nine comparison frames (thought to be, null, one over, one over and one up, etc.) against a version of the reference frame representing "where we were last time". The comparison frames are temporarily shifted versions of the sample frame; note that when shifted a comparison frame will no longer overlap the reference frame exactly. One edge, or two adjacent edges will be unmatched, as it were. Pixel locations along the unmatched edges will not contribute to the corresponding correlation (i.e., for that particular shift), but all the others will. And those others are a substantial number of pixels, which gives rise to a very good signal to noise ratio. For "nearest neighbor" operation (i.e., limited to null, one over, one up/down, and the combinations thereof) the correlation produces nine "correlation values", which may be derived from a summing of squared differences for all pixel locations having spatial correspondence (i.e., a pixel location in one frame that is indeed paired with a pixel location in the other frame—unmatched edges won't have such pairing).
A brief note is perhaps in order about how the shifting may be done and the correlation values obtained. The shifting may be accomplished by addressing offsets to memories that can output an entire row or column of an array at one time. Dedicated arithmetic circuitry may be connected to the memory array that contains the reference frame being shifted and to the memory array that contains the sample frame. The formulation of the correlation value for a particular trial shift (member of the nearest or near neighbor collection) is accomplished very quickly. The best mechanical analogy is to imagine a transparent (reference) film of clear and dark patterns arranged as if it were a checker board, except that the arrangement is perhaps random. Now imagine that a second (sample) film having the same general pattern is overlaid upon the first, except that it is the negative image (dark and clear are interchanged). Now the pair is aligned and held up to the light. As the reference film is moved relative to the sample film the amount of light admitted through the combination will vary according to the degree that the images coincide. The positioning that admits the least light is the best correlation. If the negative image pattern of the reference film is a square or two displaced from the image of the sample film, the positioning admits the least light will be one that matches that displacement. We take note of which displacement admits the least light; for the mouse we notice the positioning with the best correlation and say that the mouse moved that much. That, in effect, is what happens within an integrated circuit (IC) having photo detectors, memory and arithmetic circuits arranged to implement the image correlation and tracking technique we are describing.
It would be desirable if a given reference frame could be re-used with successive sample frames. At the same time, each new collection of nine (or twenty-five) correlation values (for collections at t1, ti-1, etc.) that originates from a new image at the photo detectors (a next sample frame) should contain a satisfactory correlation. For a hand held mouse, several successive collections of comparison frames can usually be obtained from the (16�16) reference frame taken at t0. What allows this to be done is maintaining direction and displacement data for the most recent motion (which is equivalent to knowing velocity and time interval since the previous measurement). This allows "prediction" of how to (permanently!) shift the collection of pixels in the reference frame so that for the next sample frame a "nearest neighbor" can be expected to correlate. This shifting to accommodate prediction throws away, or removes, some of the reference frame, reducing the size of the reference frame and degrading the statistical quality of the correlations. When an edge of the shifted and reduced reference frame begins to approach the center of what was the original reference frame it may be time to take a new reference frame. This manner of operation may be termed "prediction" and could also be used with comparison frames that are 5�5 and an extended "near neighbor" (null, two over/one up, one over/two up, one over/one up, two over, one over, . . . ) algorithm. The benefits of prediction are a speeding up of the tracking process by streamlining internal correlation procedure (avoiding the comparison of two arbitrarily related 16�16 arrays of data) and a reduction of the percentage of time devoted to acquiring reference frames.
In addition to the usual buttons that a mouse generally has, the mouse may have another button that suspends the production of movement signals to the computer, allowing the mouse to be physically relocated on the work surface without disturbing the position on the screen of the pointer. This may be needed if the operator runs out of room to physically move the mouse further, but the screen pointer still needs to go further. This may happen, say, in a UNIX system employing a display system known as "Single Logical Screen" (SLS) where perhaps as many as four monitors are arranged to each display some subportion of the overall "screen". If these monitors were arranged as one high by four across, then the left to right distance needed for a single corresponding maximal mouse movement would be much wider than usually allowed for. The usual maneuver executed by the operator for, say, an extended rightward excursion, is to simply pick the mouse up at the right side of the work surface (a mouse pad, or perhaps simply the edge of clearing on an otherwise cluttered surface of his desk), set it down on the left and continue to move it to the right. What is needed is a way to keep the motion indicating signals from undergoing spurious behavior during this maneuver, so that the pointer on the screen behaves in an expected and non-obnoxious manner. The function of the "hold" button may be performed automatically by a proximity sensor on the underside of the mouse that determines that the mouse is not in contact with the work surface, or by noticing that all or a majority of the pixels in the image have "gone dark" (it's actually somewhat more complicated than that—we shall say more about this idea in the next paragraph). Without a hold feature, there may be some slight skewing of the image during the removal and replacement of the mouse, owing either: (a) to a tilting of the field of view as the mouse is lifted; or (b) to some perverse mistake where frames for two disparate and widely separated spatial features imaged at very different times during the removal and replacement are nevertheless taken as representing a small distance between two frames for the same feature. A convenient place for an actual hold button is along the sides of the mouse near the bottom, where the thumb and the opposing ring finger would grip the mouse to lift it up. A natural increase in the gripping force used to lift the mouse would also engage the hold function. A hold feature may incorporate an optional brief delay upon either the release of the hold button, detection of proper proximity or the return of reasonable digitized values. During that delay any illumination control servo loops or internal automatic gain controls would have time to stabilize and a new reference frame would be taken prior to the resumption of motion detection.
And now for this business of the pixels in the image "going dark". What happens, of course, may be that the IR light from the illuminating LED no longer reaches the photo detectors in the same quantity that it did, if at all; the reflecting surface may be too far away or may be simply not in view. However, if the mouse were turned over, or its underside exposed to an intensely lit environment as a result of its being lifted, then the outputs of the photo detectors might be at any level. The key is that they will be uniform, or nearly so. The main reason that they become uniform is that there is no longer a focused image; all the image features are indistinct and they are each spread out over the entire collection of photo detectors. So the photo detectors uniformly come to some average level. This is in distinct contrast with the case when there is a focused image. In the focused case the correlations between frames (recall the one over, one over and one down, etc.) exhibit a distinct phenomenon.
Assume that the spatial features being tracked mapped exactly onto the photo detectors, through the lens system, and that mouse movement were jerky by exactly the amount and in the directions needed for a feature to go from detector to detector. Now for simplicity assume also that there is only one feature, and that its image is the size of a photo detector. So, all the photo detectors but one are all at pretty much the same level, and the one detector that is not at that level is at a substantially different level, owing to the feature. Under these highly idealized conditions it is clear that the correlations will be very well behaved; eight "large" differences and one small difference (a sink hole in an otherwise fairly flat surface) in a system using nine trials for a nearest neighbor algorithm (and remembering that there may have been no motion). Note: The astute reader will notice that the "large" difference in this rather contrived example actually corresponds to, or originates with, only one pixel, and probably does not deserve to be called "large"—recall the earlier shifted film analogy. The only light passed by the films for this example would be for the one pixel of the feature. A more normal image having a considerably more diverse collection of pixels increases the difference to where it truly is a "large" difference.
Now, such highly idealized conditions are not the usual case. It is more normal for the image of the tracked spatial features to be both larger and smaller than the size of the photo detectors, and for the mouse motion to be continuous, following a path that allows those images to fall onto more than one detector at once. Some of the detectors will receive only a partial image, which is to say, some detectors will perform an analog addition of both light and dark. The result may be at least a "broadening" of the sink hole (in terms of the number of photo detectors associated with it) and very possibly a corresponding decrease in the depth of the sink hole. The situation may be suggested by imagining a heavy ball rolling along a taut but very stretchable membrane. The membrane has a discrete integer Cartesian coordinate system associated with it. How much does the membrane distend at any integer coordinate location as the ball rolls? First imagine that the ball is of a very small diameter but very heavy, and then imagine that the ball is of a large diameter, but still weighs the same. The analogy may not be exact, but it serves to illustrate the idea of the "sink hole" mentioned above. The general case is that the generally flat surface with sharply defined sink hole becomes a broad concavity, or bowl.
We shall term the surface produced or described by the various correlation values the "correlation surface" and will, at various times, be most interested in the shape of that surface.
We say all of this to make two points. First, the shifting shape of the concavity in the correlation surface as the mouse moves allows interpolation to a granularity finer than the simple size/spacing of the photo detectors. We point this out, with the remark that our mouse can do that, and leave it at that. The full details of interpolation are described in the incorporated Patents. No further discussion of interpolation is believed necessary. Second, and this is our real reason for the discussion of the preceding paragraphs, is the observation that what happens when the mouse is picked up is that the concavity in the correlation surface goes away, to be replaced by generally equal values for the correlations (i.e., a "flat" correlation surface). It is when this happens that we may say with considerable assurance that the mouse is air borne, and can then automatically invoke the hold feature, until after such time that a suitable concavity ("bowl") reappears.
Another method for invoking or initiating a hold feature is to simply notice that the mouse is moving faster than a certain threshold velocity (and is thus presumably experiencing an abrupt retrace motion in a maneuver intended to translate the screen pointer further than the available physical space within which the mouse is operating). Once the velocity threshold is exceeded the motion indicating signals that would otherwise be associated with that movement are suppressed until such time as the velocity drops below a suitable level.

The illumination of micro textured surfaces is most effective when done from the side, as this accentuates the pattern of highlights and shadows produced by surface height irregularities. Suitable angles of incidence for illumination cover the range of about five to twenty degrees. A very smooth or flat surface (e.g., one that has been ground and polished) having simple variations in reflectivity owing to (micro scale) compositional variation works, too. In such a case (and assuming that it can be guaranteed) the angle of incidence for the illumination could approach ninety degrees, since the urge to create shadows goes away. However, such a smooth yet micro detailed surface is not what we would ordinarily think of when we say "arbitrary surface", and a seeing eye mouse intended for use on an "arbitrary surface" that is more likely micro textured would work best if equipped to provide a grazing angle of incident illumination.
An image of the illuminated region 4 is projected through an optical window 9 in package portion 8 a of an integrated circuit and onto an array 10 of photo detectors. This is done with the aid of lens 7. The package portion 8 a might also dispense with separate window 9 and lens 7 by combining them into one and the same element. The photo detectors may comprise a square array of, say, 12 to 24 detectors on a side, each detector being a photo transistor whose photo sensitive region is 45 by 45 microns and of 60 microns center to center spacing. The photo transistors charge capacitors whose voltages are subsequently digitized and stored in a memory. The array 10 is fabricated onto a portion of an integrated circuit die 12 affixed by an adhesive 11 onto package portion 8 b. What is not shown are any of the details of how the integrated circuit is held in place (probably by a printed circuit board), the shape or composition of the lenses, or of how the lenses are mounted; it is clear that those things are doable in a conventional manner. It is also clear that the general level of illumination of region 4 may be controlled by noticing the output levels of the photo detectors and adjusting the intensity of light issuing from the LED 2. This could be either continuous control or pulse width modulation, or some combination of both.
Once again, the reader is reminded that the details of the motion sensing operation are thoroughly described in the incorporated patents (and briefly described in the Summary); accordingly, they need not be repeated here.

In particular, the seeing eye mouse 14 in
The mouse 14 conventionally includes a surface 21 which nestles in the palm of the hand, and first and second "regular" mouse buttons 22 and 23 that are actuated by the index and middle fingers. These operate in their normal fashion.
Button or buttons 24 are activated by a natural increase in the gripping force needed to pick the mouse 14 up during a swipe. When one or both of these button are pressed the hold feature is activated. For the duration of the hold the sending of motion signals to the computer is suspended. When the hold is over (the buttons are released) a new reference frame is taken before any new motion signals are sent to the computer. This allows swiping, and has the advantage that the user has the ability to expressly force the onset of the hold feature.
The hold feature could also be automatically activated by the action of a separate proximity sensor on the bottom of the mouse. This is what is shown in
Yet another way to automatically activate and deactivate the hold feature is to examine the nature of the digitized data of the array 10 of photo detectors. When the outputs of the photo detectors become sufficiently uniform it may be surmised that there is no longer an image with variations projected onto the array 10 of photo detectors. This uniformity will reveal itself by producing a correlation surface that is flat, or nearly so. Rather than separately detecting uniform levels (which would use hardware not otherwise present), we prefer instead to examine the shape of the correlation surface, (which surface we need for other reasons, anyway). The most probable cause of a flat correlation surface is that the mouse has been picked up. This mode of operation may require that there be a fairly narrow depth of field, lest there occur undue delay in activating the hold. Such delay could produce minor artifacts in screen pointer movement. These might include slight unintended screen pointer movements owing to tilting of the mouse as it is either picked up or replaced. As long as activating the hold feature (however done, whether manually or automatically) forces acquisition of a new reference frame before resuming the production of motion signals, there should be no danger of producing a spurious indication resulting from the combination of old data with some new data that just accidentally looks like a proper small motion in some inappropriate direction. However, with mere uniform level detection (of, say, a sample frame) it may be difficult to guarantee that while in motion in the air there occur no optical effects (a reflection of a bright source) that would confuse the algorithm. It will be appreciated that the shape of the correlation surface is a much more reliable indicator. All of that said, it must still be remembered that the steering, as it were, of the screen pointer is an incrementally driven servo-like operation performed by a human being; if the screen pointer isn't there yet, just keep moving the mouse as needed! Small perturbations during swiping are not fatal, and may not even be particularly noticeable, depending upon the specific application being performed.

If the shape of the correlation surface is a good bowl, then path 36 takes us to the optional step 37: IS THE HOLD BUTTON PRESSED?; more about that in the next paragraph. Otherwise, we have a flat correlation surface, or a "bad bowl," and proceed along path 35 to optional step 42, DELAY. There are several possible causes for this exit from qualifier 34: e.g., extreme velocity, a suddenly featureless work surface, and, an airborne mouse. In the absence of an explicit HOLD button, we will rely upon exit path 35 to provide proper seeing eye mouse behavior by suppressing motion signals to the computer during the airborne portion of a swiping operation.
If the seeing eye mouse does have a HOLD button, then optional qualifier 37 is present, and it is there that the status (pressed or not) of the HOLD 24 button is determined. The case where it is pressed is treated the same as that for a bad bowl at qualifier 34. That is, path 38 is taken, which also leads to optional step 42.
Optional step 42 provides a delay which may be useful in several ways. First, if there is a swipe in progress, then it takes some time, and by not imagining during that time some battery power can be saved. Also, suppose that the nature of the delay is slightly more complex than a pause in the motion of a moving finger on the flow chart. Suppose that the ACQUIRE REFERENCE FRAME step 31 were influenced by there having been a delay at step 42, in that part way through the delay an illumination level control operation is initiated. This could allow time for re-adjustment of illumination levels, and so forth. Whether or not there is a DELAY at optional step 42, path 43 leads back to step 31, where another motion detection cycle begins.
To resume, path 39 leads to step 40: PREDICT SHIFT IN REFERENCE FRAME. As mentioned above, it is generally not necessary to obtain and maintain actual velocities in X and Y, and time interval information, to find the displacement needed for prediction. One can imagine measurement environments where that might be needed, but the one shown here is not one of them. Instead, the predicted shift can be taken as the amount of movement corresponding to the correlation at the preceding step 34.
The next step 44 is OUTPUT ΔX & ΔY. It is here that we take note of how much mouse motion there has been since the last measurement cycle. The amount of shift needed to attain correlation is the desired amount. These values may be found by noticing which comparison frame actually correlated (assuming no interpolation). These "raw" ΔX and ΔY motion values may be accumulated into running values that are sent to the computer at a lower rate than that at which the raw values of step 44 are produced.
At qualifier 45 we ask if we NEED A NEW REFERENCE FRAME?. If the answer is YES, then path 46 leads to step 48: STORE PRESENT SAMPLE FRAME IN REFERENCE FRAME. (A little thought will confirm that this re-use of the sample frame cooperates with not having to maintain actual velocities and time intervals for the prediction process. If we took a separate new reference frame it would complicate a lot of things, and would probably force the use of D=RT—i.e., the distance formula—for prediction.)
We need a new reference frame when there has been enough shifting of it, owing to predictions, that not enough of it overlaps the comparison frames for reliable correlations. Somewhere in the range of three to five shifts (that do not retrace themselves) is about the limit for a 16�16 reference frame.
If the answer to qualifier 45 is NO, and we do not need to replace the reference frame, then path 47 takes us to the same step 49 as does the path leading from step 48. Step 49, SHIFT REFERENCE FRAME, performs the actual permanent shift of the values in the memory array representing the reference frame. The shift is by the prediction amount, and data shifted away is lost. Following the shifting of the reference frame path 50 returns to step 32, ACQUIRE A SAMPLE FRAME, where the next measurement cycle begins.
Refer now to
Step 51 represents anything in the old step 44 over and above the actual communication to the computer of the values ΔX and ΔY. A tricky example of this difference might be an internal accumulation of motion that has not yet be dispatched to the computer, owing to a higher internal motion measurement cycle rate for the seeing eye mouse than the information exchange rate with the computer. Now, it may well be the case that in some systems this accumulated information is used for internal mouse purposes other than strictly for keeping the computer informed. If so, then it would need to be preserved, for all that qualifier 52, path 53 (and bypassed step 55A) need to accomplish is NOT tell the computer there has been motion; we want to fool the computer but without making the mouse lose its mind.
It will be noticed that if such an accumulation were allowed to continued during a rapid retrace, intended to mimic picking the mouse up, the computer might still win in the end when the velocity drops to normal amounts and the accumulation is finally sent; the screen cursor could snap to the correct location, anyway, depending upon how the overall system works. In such a case a separate set of accumulations should be maintained, with those for the computer remaining in bypassed step 55A.
Of course, it may be the case that there is no internal use by the mouse of accumulated ΔX and ΔY, other than to send it to the computer. In that case nothing needs to be done, other than to leave that accumulation in bypassed step 55A. It is also possible that in the mouse there simply are no accumulations to cause such concerns; say, any such accumulations were done by software in the computer.

I like these - but they don't run small like other reviewers said?
from Columbia, SC
on 7/17/2014
These serve the purpose well! But I ordered a size up based on other reviews and the fins are tad too big. They are still usable, but I don't use them for long sets. If I did I think they would rub too much. My foot is a 8 1/2 and I ordered the 9-11. I should have ordered the next size down. And unfortunately now I can't share them with my daughter because she wears a size 8. She's outgrown her other fins but it will be a long time before she fits into these. They're also more loose in the water vs. when they're dry, so if you order these then I would suggest swimming with them before making a decision as to whether they fit or not.

Ordered the Red/Black size 3-5 was too small for my son and happened to be the same size as his Sporti Blue/Purple M 1-3/ W 3-5 pair. Sizing is based on womans size so if ordering for girl/woman sizing would be correct. So we returned for a different brand and size those fir perfectly. Swim Outlet was great through the whole process.

I have been buying these fins for my granddaughter for 6 years. Just bought the fourth pair. They are true to size and best of all, my granddaughter loves them!
from MOUNT VERNON, KY
on 5/27/2014
I made a mistake and purchased fins size 7-9, I wear a size 8 shoe. When I tried them on they were WAY TOO SMALL, I barely got them on and they hurt my feet. So I had to return them and purchased a 9-11 size. I tried them this morning at practice and they felt a lot better.
from Prescott Valley, AZ
on 4/18/2014
FINIS Floating Fins fit well and are comfortable to use for swim workouts. Generally they feel similar to FINIS Golden Zoomers, except that the blade area is larger and quite flexible. They provide good thrust, and convey the blade flexing sensation to the feet.

FOXBORO, MA - JANUARY 10: Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots looks on during warm ups against the Baltimore Ravens during the 2010 AFC wild-card playoff game at Gillette Stadium on January 10, 2010 in Foxboro, Massachusetts. (Photo by Jim Rogash/Getty Images)
Tom Brady obviously wants Wes Welker to return, but is it really a good idea? As much as he's known for taking huge hits and making plays, the star wide receiver has become known for clutch drops at costly times. Welker came to New England in 2007 and quickly became a favorite with Brady and the fans; however, every relationship has to end. The Brady to Welker connection has come to an impasse with an end in sight, most likely with Welker parting ways with the Patriots. Brady talked about Welker and his importance to the team. "Everybody knows how I feel about Wes, our whole team feels that way about Wes," Brady said via Field Yates of ESPNBoston.com. "He's just one of the best players I've played with and played against. He's just a phenomenal player, and he's been the heart and soul of what our team is all about. He's been so selfless and the way that he carries himself and commits himself to help our team win, it's second to none. But like I said, those aren't my decisions." "I think those business parts of the game are -- those usually take care of themselves." "Certainly I'm not involved in any of those." var switchTo5x=true; stLight.options({publisher:''});
