This application is a continuation of and claims priority from application Ser. No. 09/918,482, filed Aug. 1, 2001, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,727,896, of the same title.
One or more aspects of the invention relates to computing devices using a stylus input device. More specifically, aspects of the invention relate to a method and system for correcting alignment and linearity errors when a stylus digitizer is used in combination with a display screen to provide input to a computing system.
Portable computing systems, such as personal digital assistants (PDA), often have a stylus or other pen-like input device for receiving user input. For instance, a user may use a pen-like stylus to interact with a PDA by pressing the stylus against a display screen. The display screen is generally an LCD display. Depending on the type of digitizer used, the user may physically touch the stylus to the LCD display screen or bring the stylus close to the screen so that the digitizer can detect the presence of the stylus. The digitizer would then detect the stylus proximity or contact and translate it into a location on the display. The PDA further processes the location to determine how to respond to the user input.
In order to capture a user's input regardless of where the user places the stylus on the LCD display, digitizers typically are larger than the dimensions of the LCD display itself. That is, the digitizer generally extends beyond the area of the LCD display, as shown in
Because the digitizer generally encompasses a larger area than the LCD display, the system using the digitizer and display must map the user's input from the digitizer to the LCD. For instance, if the user places the stylus at LCD pixel location 0,0, it generally does not correspond to digitizer position 0,0 because the digitizer extends beyond the dimensions of the display, as discussed above and shown in
Mapping between the digitizer and the LCD is further complicated by the fact that digitizers and LCD displays often have different resolutions. Typical display resolutions extend from less than 600×400 pixels to 1280×1024 pixels and higher, with multiple resolutions possible on various sized display screens. Digitizers, also, are created with various levels of resolution. For instance, digitizers generally have resolutions between 100 and 1000 pixels per inch. However, higher or lower resolutions are also possible. Because of these resolution differences between the LCD display and the digitizer, there is typically not a 1-to-1 mapping between the LCD display and the digitizer. Thus, complicated calculations are often required to map from the digitizer to the display.
Digitizers used to detect stylus input generally include resistive digitizers and radio frequency (RF) digitizers, both of which are known in the art. Both types of digitizers sense the location that a user places the stylus on a display device. However, an RF digitizer can sense the stylus even when it is not touching the display device. RF digitizers may have various degrees of sensitivity, such that the digitizer may sense the RF stylus when it is within an approximate distance from the digitizer, such as within one inch of the digitizer, within 6 inches, within ˝ inch, or other similar measure, which may result in the digitizer sensing the stylus before it actually contacts the display device.
However, input problems with the stylus can occur because an electromagnetic-based pen digitizer is non-linear, especially close to its edges and comers. This can be caused by field distortion from the interference of a metal frame and/or other electronics around the edges. Interference may also come from electronic components placed beneath the digitizer.
Known previous methods have attempted to compensate for alignment differences, but have neglected linearity problems. For instance, known alignment methods use two to five point alignment. That is, a computer device prompts the user to interact with the display using the stylus input device two to five times at various locations to establish the offset and alignment parameters between the digitizer and the display device. While this may correct the alignment between the digitizer and LCD, linearity problems remain unresolved.
While digitizer manufacturers have included limited linearity correction built-in to digitizer firmware, these digitizers often do not contain enough processing power or memory to fully compensate in areas a high distortion. Thus, a solution is needed that can correct for alignment and linearity errors when an LCD or other display device is used in conjunction with a pen digitizer to receive user input in a computing system.
Aspects of the invention provide a flexible and efficient method and system for correcting alignment and linearity errors in a device that uses a stylus input device. In a first aspect of the invention, there is a linearity map including an array of data points, wherein each data point comprises data corresponding to known screen coordinates and corresponding input coordinates.
In a further aspect of the invention, there is a method of creating a linearity map. A data processing system displays a calibration grid on a display device connected to a digitizer such that user input may be provided by interacting directly with the display device. A stylus input device is used to touch each intersection in the calibration grid displayed on the screen while the digitizer detects the input coordinates for each intersection. The system records each intersection's screen coordinates and corresponding detected digitizer coordinates in the linearity map.
In a further aspect of the invention, there is a method for correcting input errors in a data processing system using a stylus input device and a digitizer. The digitizer detects input from the stylus input device. The data processing system then determines in which sector of a linearity map the detected stylus input is located, and calculates a reference rectangle based on the detected point in the sector. The system then may calculate a screen point corresponding to the stylus input point based on the reference rectangle and the linearity map. The method may be embodied in computer readable instructions stored on a computer readable medium.
In a further aspect of the invention, there is a data processing system including a stylus input device, a digitizer, a display screen on top of the digitizer, a processor, and a memory storing computer readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the data processing system to perform a set of steps. The digitizer detects input from the stylus input device. The data processing system then determines in which sector of a linearity map the detected stylus input is located, and calculates a reference rectangle based on the detected point in the sector. The system then may calculate a screen point corresponding to the stylus input point based on the reference rectangle and the linearity map.
Embodiments and aspects of the present invention may be more readily described with reference to
A basic input/output system 160 (BIOS), containing the basic routines that help to transfer information between elements within the computer 100, such as during start-up, is stored in the ROM 140. The computer 100 also includes a hard disk drive 170 for reading from and writing to a hard disk (not shown), a magnetic disk drive 180 for reading from or writing to a removable magnetic disk 190, and an optical disk drive 191 for reading from or writing to a removable optical disk 192 such as a CD ROM or other optical media. The hard disk drive 170, magnetic disk drive 180, and optical disk drive 191 are connected to the system bus 130 by a hard disk drive interface 192, a magnetic disk drive interface 193, and an optical disk drive interface 194, respectively. The drives and their associated computer-readable media provide nonvolatile storage of computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules and other data for the personal computer 100. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that other types of computer readable media that can store data that is accessible by a computer, such as magnetic cassettes, flash memory cards, digital video disks, Bernoulli cartridges, random access memories (RAMs), read only memories (ROMs), and the like, may also be used in the example operating environment.
A number of program modules can be stored on the hard disk drive 170, magnetic disk 190, optical disk 192, ROM 140 or RAM 150, including an operating system 195, one or more application programs 196, other program modules 197, and program data 198. A user can enter commands and information into the computer 100 through input devices such as a keyboard 101 and pointing device 102. Other input devices (not shown) may include a microphone, joystick, game pad, satellite dish, scanner or the like. These and other input devices are often connected to the processing unit 110 through a serial port interface 106 that is coupled to the system bus, but may be connected by other interfaces, such as a parallel port, game port or a universal serial bus (USB). Further still, these devices may be coupled directly to the system bus 130 via an appropriate interface (not shown). A display device 107 such as a monitor, LCD display, or other type of display device is also connected to the system bus 130 via an interface, such as a video adapter 108. In addition to the monitor, personal computers typically include other peripheral output devices (not shown), such as speakers and printers. In a preferred embodiment, a pen digitizer 165 and accompanying pen or stylus 166 are provided in order to digitally capture freehand input. Although a direct connection between the pen digitizer 165 and the processing unit 110 is shown, in practice, the pen digitizer 165 may be coupled to the processing unit 110 via a serial port, parallel port or other interface and the system bus 130 as known in the art. Furthermore, although the digitizer 165 is shown apart from the monitor 107, it is preferred that the usable input area of the digitizer 165 be co-extensive with the display area of the monitor 107. Further still, the digitizer 165 may be integrated in the monitor 107, or may exist as a separate device overlaying or otherwise appended to the monitor 107.
The computer 100 can operate in a networked environment using logical connections to one or more remote computers, such as a remote computer 109. The remote computer 109 can be a server, a router, a network PC, a peer device or other common network node, and typically includes many or all of the elements described above relative to the computer 100, although only a memory storage device 111 has been illustrated in
When used in a LAN networking environment, the computer 100 is connected to the local network 112 through a network interface or adapter 114. When used in a WAN networking environment, the personal computer 100 typically includes a modem 115 or other means for establishing a communications over the wide area network 113, such as the Internet. The modem 115, which may be internal or external, is connected to the system bus 130 via the serial port interface 106. In a networked environment, program modules depicted relative to the personal computer 100, or portions thereof, may be stored in the remote memory storage device.
It will be appreciated that the network connections shown are examples and other techniques for establishing a communications link between the computers can be used. The existence of any of various well-known protocols such as TCP/IP, Ethernet, FTP, HTTP and the like is presumed, and the system can be operated in a client-server configuration to permit a user to retrieve web pages from a web-based server. Any of various conventional web browsers can be used to display and manipulate data on web pages.
Although the
A stylus could be equipped with buttons or other features to augment its selection capabilities. In one embodiment, a stylus could be implemented as a "pencil" or "pen", in which one end constitutes a writing portion and the other end constitutes an "eraser" end, and which, when moved across the display, indicates portions of the display are to be erased. Other types of input devices, such as a mouse, trackball, or the like could be used. Additionally, a user's own finger could be used for selecting or indicating portions of the displayed image on a touch-sensitive or proximity-sensitive display. Consequently, the term "user input device", as used herein, is intended to have a broad definition and encompasses many variations on well-known input devices.
For exemplary purposes within this disclosure, a display device with a display resolution of 1024×768 and a digitizer with a resolution of 1000 pixels/inch are used. However, it will be understood that one may easily adapt one or more embodiments of the present invention for display devices and digitizers with other resolutions. The combination of a display device placed over a digitizer may be referred to as an LCD Digitizer.
Further embodiments may also be adapted to accommodate non-linear as well as linear maps. A non-linear map, shown in
Linearity maps with higher resolution generally produce better linearity compensation. However, as the resolution of the linearity map approaches the resolution of the display device, more processor time and speed is required to perform various lookup functions and data calculations. For example, some high-resolution pen tablets have data rates greater than 120 points detected per second. Because compensation is generally performed for each stylus input point detected, data processing for linearity maps with high resolutions will quickly consume system processor time and other system resources. Conversely, as the linearity map's resolution gets lower, less system resources are used but linearity compensation is less accurate. Thus, a resolution should be used that produces acceptable linearity compensation with a minimum effect on system resources.
In one method that may be used to create a linearity map, a calibration application displays a two-dimensional calibration grid of screen points, similar to that shown in
Alternatively, the calibration process may be automated during the manufacturing process so that users do not need to initially perform calibration when they receive a computing device enabled with linearity correction. In such devices, the user may have the option of re-calibrating the device upon request.
The calibration application records the stylus coordinates as the user touches each screen intersection point and generates a two-dimensional linearity map data array, a C/C++ definition of one example is shown in
The linearity map may then be used to map every detected stylus input to a corresponding screen point according to a predetermined algorithm. Before the stylus point can be mapped to a screen point, however, the sector of the linearity map containing each detected stylus point is located. Searching all 713 sectors to locate which one sector contains each detected stylus input would be tedious and unnecessarily consume system resources. Thus, a more efficient search algorithm should be used.
In one embodiment, the algorithm used may be based on the assumption that a subsequent stylus input point is most likely to be in the same sector as the previous stylus input point or, if not in the same sector, is in one of its eight adjacent neighbor sectors. By using this assumption, a loop to find the next stylus input point sector that starts from the previous stylus input point sector will execute one or two iterations most of the time. During each iteration, the algorithm determines whether it needs to move horizontally, vertically, or diagonally by comparing the target coordinates to the current coordinates. Even in a worst case scenario, where the user starts at one corner of the screen and pulls the stylus out of proximity of the digitizer tablet and moves the stylus back within the proximity of the digitizer at the opposite comer of the screen, the algorithm will not do more than max(NUM_LINEAR_XPTS, NUM_LINEAR_YPTS) iterations to locate the next stylus point sector. That is, the algorithm will only need to perform iterations equal to the greater of the number of X grid points or the number of Y grid points, minus one. Thus, using the exemplary 32×24 grid, the maximum number of iterations would be 31 (i.e. 32−1=31). This algorithm is especially applicable when the user is providing written input using the stylus, such that the input is approximately continuous and flowing in nature. In environments where the user is not writing, or input is more random, other search algorithms may be used.
With reference to
With reference to
For example, to calculate x1 the algorithm first intersects the line defined by (ix,iy), (ix,iy+1) with the horizontal line defined by Ypen. The known ratio "vertical distance between Ypen and the point (ix,iy)" to "vertical distance between the point (ix,iy+1) and the point (ix,iy)" should be the same as the ratio "horizontal distance between x1 and the point (ix,iy)" to "horizontal distance between point (ix,iy+1) and the point (ix,iy)." Where the function Y(a,b) returns the Y-coordinate of the point represented by (a,b) and the X(a,b) returns the X-coordinate of the point represented by (a,b), x1 may be calculated by solving Equation 1, below, for x1 (the only unknown value):
The values x2, y1, and y2 may be calculated in similar fashion. The reference rectangle is the resultant object bounded by lines x1, x2, y1, and y2.
Linear interpolation by proportion may be used to determine the resultant X and Y coordinates on the screen. The distance of the detected stylus input point to the left edge of the reference rectangle may be defined by the formula Xpen−x1. The width of the reference rectangle may be defined by the formula x2−x1. The distance of the target screen point (Xscr,Yscr) to the left edge of the screen rectangle is referred to as Xdist. The width of the screen rectangle is referred to as Sw. The values Xpen, Ypen, x1, x2, y1, y2, Sw, and Sh are known or previously calculated for each detected stylus input point. Thus, the screen x-coordinate (Xscr) may be calculated by first determining Xdist such that the ratio Xdist:Sw is equal to the ratio Xpen−x1:x2−x1, and then adding Xdist to the x-value of the left edge of the screen rectangle. Likewise, the screen y-coordinate may be calculated by first determining Ydist such that the ratio Ydist:Sh is equal to the ratio Ypen−y1:y2−y1, and then adding Ydist to y-value of the top edge of the screen rectangle.
As previously stated, because each sector is maximized when determining the sector in which a detected input point is located, the detected input point might not be placed in the actual sector in which it is located. For example, with reference to
Placing stylus point 901 in sector G (shown bounded by the small dotted lines), the intersecting points of the stylus point to the sector polygon are shown as black circles. The reference rectangle is formed by using the intersecting points as boundaries (solid lines). Thus, as is shown, the stylus point 901 may be outside of the reference rectangle. However, because the algorithm to interpolate the screen coordinates, above, is based on the ratio of the distance of the stylus point from the boundary lines of the reference rectangle, it may also be used to extrapolate the screen coordinates as well as interpolate them.
Although the black dotted lines of the sector polygon are slanted, they represent constant values (horizontal or vertical lines) of corresponding edges of a screen rectangle, i.e. every point on the slanted line is equivalent to a constant X or Y value of the corresponding edge of the screen coordinates. To calculate the resultant screen coordinates, ratios are again used. The ratio of Dsy1:Dsy2 is calculated to be the same as the ratio Dy1:Dy2, where Dsy1 corresponds to Ydist, above, and Dsy2 is the height of the screen rectangle. Similarly, the ratio of Dsx1:Dsx2 is calculated to be the same as the ratio of Dx1:Dx2. Because Dx1 is larger than Dx2, the result of the ratio is greater than one because the value is extrapolated instead of interpolated. That is, the resulting screen coordinates may also be outside of the screen rectangle.
Calculations written in C/C++ to calculate the screen coordinates according to an embodiment of the invention are shown in
In contrast to
Using the above method and system, the invention adjusts the reference rectangle continuously as the given stylus point moves around in a sector. When the stylus point crosses two adjacent sectors, the transition is smooth because the reference rectangle is weighted toward the joining edge of the adjacent sectors as it moves closer to the boundary. That is, with reference to
Programming languages other than C/C++ may be used to perform the invention. The instructions for performing the inventive method may be stored in one or more memories of the computer 100, such as in the hard disk 170, magnetic disk 190, optical disk 192, or other suitable computer readable medium, such that when the instructions are carried out by the processing unit 110, the computer 100 is caused to perform in accordance with the invention.
The invention as described above compensates for alignment differences while it compensates for linearity errors. In addition, the alignment is corrected regardless of whether the LCD's resolution is the same as the digitizer's resolution by correcting the user provided input according to the above described method and system.
While the invention has been described with respect to specific examples including presently preferred modes of carrying out the invention, those skilled in the art will appreciate that there are numerous variations and permutations of the above described systems and techniques that fall within the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.

Fresh Mozzarella
The last couple times I bought fresh mozzarella it has had absolutely no flavor! What do I need to look for when buying mozzarella? Are there certain brands that are better than others? I really didn't think it mattered, but I was unimpressed with both I had bought...so bland! Both fresh and when I melted it!

Does anyone know why Mayor Garcia does not take his salary. Does he get a disability retirement? If he is recieving such retirement he may not be able to have paid employment but would be able to take reimbursement. If that is the case he is just working the system not trying to save the citizens of DeBary money. I like to have all the details before I come to a conclusion, can someone tell me why he does not take his pay?

Many people shoot for romance "just like in the movies", but abstinence may not be such a bad idea once you consider your first time with a creeper, ghost, mutant, animal or any combination of the above. Here are six first-time scenes that show sex can be scary.
"Fast Times at Ridgemont High"
Jackson Browne be damned! It doesn't get any easier to watch Jennifer Jason Leigh lose her cherry in a dugout to a mall stereo salesman upon repeated viewings. And Phoebe Cates told us it would hurt less the more we do it.
The universal dude-tonic to that cornball pottery scene in "Ghost", this scene is actually "scary" by default, since it depicts Dan Aykroyd humping a foxy lady-spirit. The second reason why this is scary is that getting blown by a ghost is probably the coolest thing Aykroyd has ever done. Hey, if you have to peek, do it in the spiritual sense.
"The Basketball Diaries"
You guys know the old saying: "You never forget your first time in a New York City subway bathroom with a crusty old man to satisfy your smack habit." There are plenty of high times for Leonardo DiCaprio's strung-out Catholic school baller, but they come crashing to earth when he eventually has to turn tricks in a subway bathroom just to get his next fix. You'll never forget to the lock the stall door after this little scare, that's for sure.
"The Virgin Suicides"
Sofia Coppola's sun-bleached serenade features a hopelessly smitten Lux falling for the school stud, Trip Fontaine. After Trip scores her virginity on the football field, Lux awakens alone, a long walk of shame ahead of her. Scary lesson to the jerko jocks: the girl you used might go on to have a string of meaningless sexual encounters before performing ritual suicide along with four of her sisters, cursing your name and haunting you for all eternity. Just doesn't look good in the yearbook, bro.
If any movie acts as a deterrent for unprotected teenage sex, you'd have to go with the one that features a token virgin-slayer who abhors condoms and unknowingly infects his conquests with HIV. Wait a minute-is this guy friends with Trip Fontaine?
"Howard the Duck"
One can only wonder how on earth Lea Thompson's agent ever tricked her into appearing in this movie. Clearly any measure of the truth would've been far too scary: "Lea, you get to do a love scene with a duck…Okay, okay, not a duck, but a midget….How about this? A duck-midget! Yeah! You're gonna do it with a duck-midget!"
"Romeo and Juliet"
DiCaprio, who must've been choking back vomit while he had to make sexies with that frumpy girl from "My So-Called Life". The only relief from this horror is that everybody dies at the end, guaranteeing no sequels.
"Gremlins 2: The New Batch"
Greta the Gremlin is the unsung pioneer of the LBGT monster movement, people! She took the proper medication to change her sex, landed herself a nice American guy with a steady job and earned her right to marry! Sure, the average horndog keeps staring at Phoebe Cates, but that hairpiece on Robert Picardo and that green tranny puppet got somethin' special goin' on. Thanks, childhood!

Monsignor Franklin Endowment Fund
Planned Giving/Endowment Fund
In addition to the generous support provided through our annual fund, Saint George School is blessed and grateful to be the benefactor of charitable gifts from estates and trusts by our partners in mission, foundations, and corporations, made in one of the following programs.
The Monsignor Franklin Foundation Endowment Fund
Monsignor Franklin was assigned to Saint George Church in 1942 as resident Pastor. He brought innovative ideas and a vision of intellectual growth founded in faith to a growing Saint George Community. During his term, he initiated the ground breaking for Saint George School as well as the formation of one of the first churches to be constructed in a modern style accommodating more that 1,000 worshipers. He was a dedicated and charismatic priest with immeasurable talents. Monsignor Franklin's time and talents are treasured by all those associated with Saint George. He is truly our model of commitment and the very reason why the mission of Saint George is alive today.
In honor of Monsignor Franklin, Saint George has established the Monsignor Franklin Foundation Endowment Fund, its highest level of giving. Endowment Funds ensure that Saint George's future as an institution of the highest quality continues. The fund's interest earnings are being reinvested to build the fund balance. Contributions to the fund are received weekly from parish members through their church envelopes.
Planned Giving
Individuals who make charitable gifts to Saint George in their estate plans demonstrate their shared belief in the mission of Saint George. In addition to the estate and tax benefits available, members of the Monsignor Franklin Foundation Society know that, through their graciousness and planning, the tradition of Saint George Parish will continue indefinitely. Some examples of Planned Giving include Charitable Trusts, Gift Annuities, Specific Bequests, and Memorial Gifts. Our Advancement Team can put you in touch with professionals who can advise you regarding the numerous estate planning options that will assure the availability of your assets to you during your lifetime, and to your dependents and Saint George School when you are called to be with the Holy Father.
To become a member of the Monsignor Franklin Foundation Society by including Saint George School in your estate plans, please contact the Advancement Office at 814-864-4821 or email Elizabeth Fehr, Director of Advancement for Saint George Church & School, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Proceedings of the British Academy, Volume 103

Why did Plato put mathematics at the heart of education for the rulers of his ideal city? Why has mathematics played such a central role in Western philosophy? And just how do we acquire knowledge of necessary truths? Three philosophers of international repute tackle these questions.
M F Burnyeat brings out Plato's distinctive vision of the world as it objectively is: the structures of mathematics are also the structures that express the nature of the human soul and the soul that governs the world. Ian Hacking highlights the phenomena associated with the actual experience of proof, which so impressed philosopher-mathematicians like Descartes and Leibniz and onlookers like Plato and Wittgenstein. Jonathan Bennett explores modal discovery in Locke and Leibniz, and the infallibility of reason in Descartes and Spinoza. The answers offered by these distinguished scholars make a significant contribution to our understanding of some of the great thinkers of the past.
Readership: Scholars and students of the history of philosophy, and the history of mathematics.
The volume is edited by Timothy Smiley, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, University of Cambridge, and a Fellow of the British Academy.
These Dawes Hicks Lectures on Philosophy were delivered at a symposium held at the Academy in March 1998.

The routes begin four hours before kickoff and run for approximately three hours following the game, leaving Lambeau Field every 30 minutes. Further details and gameday route information is available here.
Police officers are stationed at each entrance gate to ensure your safety while visiting Lambeau Field. You and your belongings may be searched upon entry into the stadium. If you elect not to consent to being searched, you will be denied entry. Please be aware that carry-in policies may be modified from game to game as security levels change, and items permitted into the stadium may be determined at the discretion of each officer. Firearms and other weapons, bags, backpacks, coolers, strollers, umbrellas, duffel bags, large purses, fanny packs, obstructive banners and signs are all strictly prohibited, as are food & beverages, noisemakers of any kind, selfie sticks, video cameras and still photo cameras with lenses over 12 inches.

Use the following directions to reach Lambeau Field on gameday.
Highway Construction In Progress around Green Bay:
Packers Travel Advisory (11/09/2014)
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) Northeast Region Office is reminding motorists heading to Lambeau Field for Sunday night's game that US 41 and adjacent roadways from Oneida St. north to Suamico are under construction. The US 41/WIS 172 interchange could experience significant backups on both north and south US 41 and east and west WIS 172. Closures, orange barrels, narrow lanes will affect game day travel. Due to the construction, Ashland Avenue through De Pere and Ashwaubenon will also experience increased traffic congestion as additional motorists use this as an alternate route.
WisDOT strongly recommends motorists allow themselves additional time to reach their destinations and check WisDOT's 511 website. Additionally, motorists are advised to remain alert and plan on exercising patience as they drive through the Green Bay area.
Packers fans heading for the game should anticipate these road conditions in northeast Wisconsin:
Please note:
If you are involved in a crash:
The WisDOT's Division of State Patrol advises you to immediately call 911 if you are involved in a crash. If there are no injuries and the vehicles can be moved, report the other vehicle plate numbers as you may then be advised to move off the main portion of the roadway to a crash investigation site or to a ramp out of traffic. This will assist first responders in reaching you while helping to clear traffic delays during the critical travel times before and following the game.
Additionally, if your vehicle becomes disabled in the US 41 work zone between De Pere and Suamico, notify authorities immediately and WisDOT will send a Freeway Service Team vehicle to your location. Motorists can then contact their motor club or towing preference after WisDOT has relocated your vehicle to a more accessible and safe location.
Travelers should allow extra time and can check online for real-time traffic information, including travel times, lane closures and incidents, at Wisconsin 511 online (www.511wi.gov) or by calling 511 on a phone.
A northbound lane of Ridge Road (on the stadium's west side) is blockaded on gameday to provide a safe and convenient passenger drop off area. To access the drop off zone, vehicles must be traveling north on Ridge Road and merge with northbound traffic upon exiting. Please respect any posted time limitations and heed the instructions from officers directing traffic flow in and out of the area.
As this area will be very congested in the immediate hour(s) after the game, it will not be designated as a post-game pick up zone. Drivers should arrange to meet their passengers at an alternate location after the game.
Watch the Lambeau Field evacuation plan video.
The Green Bay Packers are committed to providing an enjoyable and safe game experience. Irresponsible conduct will not be tolerated at Lambeau Field or in its parking lots and, in some cases, may result in arrest and/or ejection from the game. The following will not be tolerated:
Repeat violations of the above policy may result in the permanent revocation of season tickets, regardless of whether or not the spectators or violators using the tickets are the season ticket holders of record.
The fan code of conduct has been enhanced with an option for fans to use their mobile phones to alert security via text message to behavior that detracts from a positive gameday experience. The numbers will be visible throughout the stadium, including on signage in the stadium bowl and at all concession stands. Announcements also will be made in-stadium.
Speak up and win! After you attend a Packers game, tell us about your experience. Please take a few minutes to complete the survey and be entered to win Packers autographed prizes.
Fan Walkway Activities/Displays
Stop by the following fan activities and displays before the game – located along the fan walkway on the east side of the stadium from Oneida Street to the Oneida Nation Gate:
Parking Lot Kiosks
Kiosks are located across from the Tundra Tailgate Zone tent
All displays and activities are subject to change.
A flyover by the Navy (TBD) is scheduled.
Vendors will stop serving in the stands/aisles inside the stadium at the end of the third quarter but most concession stands are open and will serve food until the end of the game. Alcohol cannot be brought into or out of the stadium. The sale of beer is limited to two per customer, per purchase, with all sales ceasing at the end of the third quarter.
Please note: Concession Stands serving alcohol throughout Lambeau Field will not accept a driver's license that indicates "under 21," no matter what the age is on the driver's license.
Fans with seats in the South End (i.e. section numbers ending with the letter "s") must enter through the Shopko Gate on the south side of the stadium, which is for the exclusive use of South End ticket holders. Fans sitting elsewhere in the stadium are encouraged to use the gate suggested on their ticket for the most direct route to their seats. For fans entering on the east side of the stadium, the new American Family Insurance Gate is a great option. It's located just to the north (or right) of the Oneida Nation Gate.
It's gameday and you know what to do…GET LOUD LAMBEAU!
Whether you're cheering at the game at Lambeau Field, a road game, or at your virtual Lambeau Field, we need you at your loudest. And, Packers fans never disappoint.
So stand up and let the opposing team know that you're loud and proud to support the team.

If we're to believe los rumores, Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem are expecting their first child together. Just Jared is reporting that Cruz is four months pregnant. The couple have known each other for years – they first starred together in the Spanish film Jamón, Jamón in 1992, but only became involved romantically after filming the Woody Allen film Vicky Cristina Barcelona in 2008. Cruz also recently quit smoking, which is what began the baby rumors several months ago, and now it seems to be true.
The couple has said they have no plans to wed. We recently said that we thought Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds would have the universe's hottest baby if they ever spawned, but we retract that statement and look forward to the universe's hottest actual (not hypothetical) child. Felicitaciónes! [Photo: /Vicky Cristina Barcelona]

Yarn Globes and Jersey Girls
April 12, 2012
Hi Loves!
I hope you're having a fab week! Maria over at Candy Kisses Crochet is this week's guest blogger and she's a fellow Jersey girl! I grew up the town right next to hers! Enjoy this energetic and really cool article and leave some love in the comments, we just love seeing it:)
air kisses;)
Hello Everyone! I'm Maria, the owner and creative mind over at Candy Kisses Crochet (www.facebook.com/candykissescrochet and www.candykissescrochet.etsy.com and cupcakecrazymom.wordpress.com ). Aside from my little crochet shop I also have a photography business (www.mariasauerbreiphotography.com) I'm a sort of stay at home mom to three girls ages 4, 2, and 7 months, and a wife to my wonderful husband. Aside from the two businesses and the mom/wife stuff (what, you thought that was enough??) I also am going to school, working towards my Master's degree in Professional Counseling and I take photography workshops whenever I can afford and have the time to do so.
I live in Phoenix, AZ but grew up in Jersey City, NJ…I'm truly a Jersey girl through and through even though I've lived in AZ for 7 years. I taught myself to crochet when I was 21 but didn't start my little shop until July 2011. I love crocheting shoes…especially little tiny baby shoes, but I can crochet everything and anything. Photography props, blankets, hats, mittens and gloves, scarves, I think you get the idea.
Now on to the fun facts!!
- I used to work at Carlo's Bakery (you know the place as TLC's Cake Boss bakery). Yes, they are exactly like that.
- My B.A. is in English Literature and I used to want to be a teacher.
- I can be a bit of a grammar nut when reading other people's works but I somehow always screw up my own stuff.
- I love to write (especially Twilight fan-fic) don't judge me though. It's easier to write a story when all the character development has been done for me.
- I LOVE to cook. My parents used to own a pizzeria/restaurant and even though they didn't specifically teach me to cook I used to watch them all the time and I'm a pretty darn good cook if I do say so myself.
- I am an avid reader; I will read anything and everything and can pretty much find a redeeming quality in any book.
- I like reading trashy romance novels and would love to write one someday.
- 7 years and I still hate Phoenix summers. I would rather take cold snowy winters over 100+ summers any day.
- I used to co-own a cupcake business, I can bake a pretty tasty cupcake…I post recipes on my blog every so often; you should definitely check it out!
- My family and close friends mean the world to me. I would do anything for them and go out of my way to make sure my husband and kids have everything they need. I'm fiercely loyal once someone shows me they deserve it.
Now on to the tutorial…yarn globes!
I discovered these little wonders for my daughter's birthday party. It's not a difficult project but I warn you it can get messy and it's time consuming. You need at least 24 hours for them because they do need to dry.
- Yarn
- Heavy Duty Balloons (The 'Punching' kind are better for making circles.)
- Mod Podge
- Vaseline
- Blow up the balloons to make different sizes. The smaller the balloon, the easier it is to make. So, if you're doing multiple balloons do a lot of smaller ones, and a few big ones.
- Cover the balloons in Vaseline so that the Mod Podge will not completely stick to the balloons.
- Dip the yarn in the Mod Podge and wrap it around the balloon in no particular order. We found it easier to cut many long strands of yarn and wrap them on, rather than one super long strand.
- Covering the balloons with more yarn rather than less is best. It may seem like a lot, but when you pop the balloon the empty spots will be more noticeable.
- Let the balloons hang to dry overnight. Sometimes the balloon will pop on its own while drying.
- If they did not pop on their own, pop them and carefully pull the entire balloon out of the ball.
- You can use starch to stiffen at this point if there are some soft spots. We used starch to stiffen the final product.
That's the tutorial and sorry for the lack of pictures, I was by myself the last time I made them and my hands were covered in mod podge and yarn.

28 Acts of Kindness—for Sandy Hook
Last week's tragedy left so many of us drowning in sorrow and feeling helpless to do much about it. What on earth could we do to make things better, when confronted with such an overwhelmingly sad event? It's not like Hurricane Sandy, when you could pitch in to help a neighbor clean out their home, or donate toward helping those who lost so much rebuild. There's nothing we can do to help the families affected in Sandy Hook get back what was lost.
And that's when I read about Ann Curry's brilliant plan—to accomplish acts of kindness in honor of those who died. Many people are doing 26 kindnesses, for the children and teachers who died at the school. Others are including Nancy Lanza, the mother of the shooter who also lost her life. I'm choosing 28, in part because there can't be enough kindness in the world, and in part because I believe strongly that Adam was a victim of his own, untreated mental illness.
I'm hoping to accomplish all of my 28 in the next week, before the new year…and I'm drawing inspiration from the Twitter feed #26ActsofKindness. So far, I've managed four:
1. Sent an extra gift and a heartfelt note to my daughters' teachers (we already went in on group gifts for them with the rest of the class).
2. Donated to Toys for Tots in honor of the students of Sandy Hook.
3. Hosting a friend's daughters over for the afternoon, after her regular babysitter fell through.
4. Left a Starbucks gift card and a note on a random car in our school's teacher parking lot.
(Actually, I could kind of count #5, which was—against my better judgement—caving and getting an Elf on the Shelf for my daughters, who have been begging for one all week. Because basically, this week, I'd probably get them a pony if they asked.)
Imagine if we all committed to doing just a few acts of kindness this week…maybe it would become a habit. Let me know if you're on board—and share your ideas for sharing the love.

In Captivate 5 Essential Training, author James Lockman demonstrates the core features of Captivate 5, the popular tool for authoring e-learning content such as interactive presentations, click-through simulations, and customized assessments. He shows how to import and sync PowerPoint presentations, add interactivity, and incorporate audio, video, and voiceovers. The course also includes tutorials on assessment reporting and integrating with SCORM-compliant learning management systems. Exercise files accompany the course.
In this lesson we are going to see how we can adjust a software simulation assessment that we had recorded in an earlier chapter. We are going to be using the contact_ assessment file that's located in your Chapter 10 Project folder. Open it now if you don't have it open. Next, switch to the Quizzing workspace and go to slide number 1. Let's zoom out to show the entire stage. We will use Command+0 or Ctrl+0 to do that. When you build an assessment through a software simulation recording, Captivate is going to record all the places where you click.
It's also going to provide a failure caption. In addition it tags the click areas that it builds to be part of a quiz. Let's look at the Timeline. In the Timeline you see a click box. Select the click box and go down to Reporting. This is in your Properties panel on the right. Captivate has already identified this click box as being something it needs to include in a quiz. When the user clicks on this box, it will add 1 point to the total.
If you click in the wrong place, Captivate will show this failure caption and then it will continue. Captivate will automatically number the interaction IDs. If you want a more meaningful name for that interaction, then you will want to enter it here. For this one let's call it name_click. No spaces are allowed. Hit Enter to commit the change. We need to expand the click box to cover the name area. We'll zoom in so we can see it better.
Now we'll expand the click box. Grab the corner and drag it so it covers the name field. The user expects that they should be able to click anywhere within the name field to be successful. Another thing to note is that assessments typically don't have hints. Also, they typically don't have success captions. The expectation is if they've done the correct thing then they will continue. When we recorded this simulation, we also recorded our voiceover.
If you don't want that audio track to play during the assessment, then you'll need to remove it at this stage. You'll need to proceed through the entire presentation and adjust all of the click boxes so that they are of the right size. You may also want to adjust the failure captions so that they better reflect what the user didn't do correctly. Let's go back to the Filmstrip. Let's look at slide number 2 and switch to the Timeline. Slider number 2 has this Typing Text. The typing text is prerecorded.
In the previous lesson we saw how we could remove the typing text and replace it with a text input area. Let's do that now. We replace with text animation and then we remove it with the Delete key. We can now create a text entry box. Move the text entry box down to the Name field, drag it to the right, and we can insert correct entries. If you had a simulation that required specific entries to be entered there, then it would make sense to enter correct entries.
In this case any value is correct. We can remove the Success, Failure, and Hint captions. We can also remove the button and shut off text validation. Going down to Reporting, you will see that we cannot include it in the quiz because we haven't turned on validation. If we turn on validation, then we can report this as a correct answer. For this specific simulation we are not looking for correct answers for these text areas.
We are looking for clicking in the correct places, however, so we will continue to score those. I'll leave it to you to adjust the remainder of the click boxes in this simulation. The last thing we've got to do to make this meaningful is to adjust our quiz settings in the Preferences. On a Macintosh these are under the Captivate menu. On a Windows computer they are under the Edit menu. Remember to give your quiz a name that makes some sense. In this case, we call it EmailQuiz. We will also type in EmailQuiz for the Objective ID.
In this case Pass or Fail would be determined by a number of points. Captivate tells us that there are nine points to be earned in this assessment. It's counted up all of those click boxes and tells us the total. Success may be 9 of 9. So you can either type in 100% or 9 points. You'll need to determine what the metrics for Success for this type of assessment. Click OK to close the Preferences. Having made your adjustments, let's save this as contact_assessment_a.
For making software simulation assessments Captivate does the heavy lifting when we record that simulation. It doesn't mean that the job is done. We've got to go back and ensure that all of the areas that Captivate has build for us automatically align with what the user would expect in an actual simulation.

Vernier has introduced Go Wireless Temp, a wireless sensor that records temperature data when connected to an iOS device. The instrument enables to users to study temperature in the environment as well as in systems such as fish tanks, greenhouses, thermal mugs and heating and cooling devices.
Go Wireless Temp works like a thermometer and is supported by a free iOS app. Students can use the app to collect temperature readings with their iPads, iPhones or iPod Touch devices. The instrument also supports Graphical Analysis for iPad, an app that enables students to "save data, perform curve fits, annotate graphs, perform statistical calculations and export data for additional analysis," according to Vernier.
Additional information about Vernier's wireless sensors is available at the company's Web site.
