Hamas has hinted that it may kidnap more IDF soldiers if a deal for Gilad Shalit is not sealed.
According to Ha'aretz, one of Hamas's leaders abroad, Osama Hamdan, has said that although negotiations were continuing with German mediator Gerhard Conrad, the organisation would not rule out further kidnappings if no agreement could be reached with the Israelis.
Israel and Hamas are said to be hammering out a deal involving 450 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for the 23-year-old kidnapped soldier.
Israel is demanding the exile of 120 of the prisoners whom they will release, a condition which Hamas so far has refused to accept.
It is likely that Hamas will turn down the current offer from Israel in the hope of reducing the number of prisoners to be exiled and to add further names to the list, including Fatah's Marwan Barghouti.

Jermain Taylor's Next Bout Could Come Jan. 25 in D.C.
by David P. Greisman
Former middleweight champion Jermain Taylor could continue his comeback with a Jan. 25 appearance in Washington, D.C., on the undercard of a show featuring Lamont Peterson vs. Dierry Jean and Gabriel Rosado vs. Jermell Charlo.
That's according to Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy Promotions, who said he will speak with Taylor and his adviser, Al Haymon.
Taylor, 35, scored a seventh-round stoppage of J.C. Candelo on Dec. 14 in San Antonio, bringing his record to 32-4-1 with 20 KOs.
Taylor became the undisputed middleweight champion in 2005 when he edged Bernard Hopkins, then retained the championship in a rematch. He defended it again with a draw against Winky Wright and wins over Kassim Ouma and Cory Spinks, but then suffered a knockout to Kelly Pavlik. Taylor fought Pavlik again in a rematch and lost a decision.
He then rebounded with a decision win over Jeff Lacy, then suffered a last-round knockout to Carl Froch and then entered Showtime's "Super Six" super middleweight tournament, only to suffer another last-round knockout to Arthur Abraham.
Taylor stepped away from the sport following the October 2009 loss to Arthur, which was his fourth loss in five fights, the third by way of knockout. Though those defeats had come against high-quality, the Abraham knockout brought about some bleeding on Taylor's brain.
Taylor has been medically cleared, though, with experts testifying that he is at no greater risk of suffering another brain bleed than he was prior to the Abraham loss. And so Taylor came back in December 2011, stopping Jessie Nicklow, came off the canvas in April 2012 to outpoint Caleb Truax, and then made quick work of Raul Munoz in October 2012.
The Candelo fight was Taylor's first in 14 months.

REFILE - CORRECTING DATE IN LAST SENTENCE Ghana's presidential candidate Nana Akufo-Addo (front C) of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) waves during his last rally at Sutherland Addy Children's Park in Accra December 5, 2012. Ghana's cliff-hanger presidential election on Friday will test the country's reputation as a bulwark for democracy and economic growth in Africa's so-called coup-belt. The stakes are high with rivals jousting for a chance to oversee a boom in oil revenues that has brought hopes of increased development in a country where the average person makes less than $4 a day.

The ball is dropping; the champagne is popping. Grab your goofy hat and ring in next year with a rockin' New Year's Eve party.
But you can't just sing "Auld Lang Syne" all night and wait for the ball to drop. To get your guests mingling, plan a poker tournament or crank up the Wii.
Organized activities that are fun both to watch and play are a great way for guests to get to know each other, which frees up the party hosts from having to make introductions and keep people entertained.
Here are some other ideas:
Resolution buddies
Up the chances you'll actually keep your New Year's resolution with this clever twist. Ask each guest to write down their name, e-mail address and resolution, then fold up the piece of paper and place it in a bowl or hat.
Everybody then pulls out a piece of paper (if they get their own name, they can choose again). That's your resolution buddy. Each person has to check in with that person throughout the night, and in the new year, to make sure they're sticking to their resolutions.
If you're hoping your friends make love connections and lasting friendships at your party, this is a sneaky way to get everybody exchanging contact info.
Memory book
Cap off each year with a memory book, where you document the past 12 months' most significant moments. Buy a blank book and ask each guest to write their favorite memory of this past year and a hope for the following year.
You can also ask guests to bring their favorite photo from the year or another personal item from the past 12 months to paste into your book.
At next year's party, bring out the same book so you can read the previous entries and add a new set.
Board game olympics
Sometimes it's a struggle to stay up past midnight. Blame your age, schedule or champers intake. Board games get everybody involved and keep the energy level up.
Before the party, find out what your guests' favorite games are. There's nothing worse than a dud game that people either can't figure out or don't want to play.
Playing with a shy group? Start off with a team competition, where people can get more comfortable with each other and with playing games.
Also, be sure to choose different kinds of games with different topics - not just pop culture trivia or word games - so you cater to different guests' talents.

The 2010 season for the Iowa Hawkeyes certainly had its ups and downs. From huge preseason hype to the late season meltdown, this roller coaster ride could hardly be predicted.
At times, Iowa looked every bit the national title contender they were billed to be. From their easy walk through teams like Iowa State and Ball State to their 37-6 drubbing of then-undefeated Michigan State, the Hawkeyes showed that they were capable of playing about as well as anyone in the country.
At the same time, they fell behind Arizona 27-7 before staging a miraculous turnaround. They dropped at home to Wisconsin 31-30. Let's not even talk about the three-game losing skid to end the season that included losses to unranked Northwestern and Minnesota.
The Hawkeyes certainly played as poorly as just about anyone in the country as well.
So, how do you grade this team overall?
This is how I did it.

Next Act gives wings, radio style to 'It's a Wonderful Life'
Imagine a Milwaukee without its musicians and dancers, its singers and actors, its highly reputed symphony and its world-class theater. It would look a lot more like Pottersville, that mean-spirited burg of cheap thrills and third-class entertainment that greets George Bailey before his great awakening.
Such were my thoughts Friday night as six veteran Milwaukee-based actors tugged at my heartstrings for the second straight year, in Next Act Theatre's reprise of "It's a Wonderful Life," as transformed by Mary MacDonald Kerr into a 1957 radio play, coming straight to us from the studio of Milwaukee's very own WNAT. »Read Full Article(1)

NFL Games
Denver Broncos at Atlanta Falcons
This match-up features two of last week's best preforming quarterbacks in Manning and Ryan. Manning helped Denver take out Pittsburgh, mainly running his hurry up offense. He had 2 touchdowns and appeared to be in top form. Ryan led his Falcons in a rout of Kansas City, having 4 touchdowns and almost 300 yards. With all the offensive firepower these two teams have, it might just come down to the defense being the game-changers, and that advantage leans to Denver. Either way this game should be a good one, and well worth staying up for.

2666by Roberto Bolaño Natasha Wimmer
Composed in the last years of Roberto Bolaño's life, "2666" was greeted across Europe and Latin America as his highest achievement, surpassing even his previous work in its strangeness, beauty, and scope. Its throng of unforgettable characters includes academics and convicts, an American sportswriter, an elusive German novelist, and a teenage student and her widowed, mentally unstable father. Their lives intersect in the urban sprawl of Santa Teresa--a fictional Juárez--on the U.S.-Mexico border, where hundreds of young factory workers, in the novel as in life, have disappeared.
Antwerpby Roberto Bolaño Natasha Wimmer
Bolano's radical first novel makes its paperback debut as a New Directions Pearl. Written when he was only twenty-seven, Antwerp can be viewed as the Big Bang of Roberto Bolano's fictional universe. This novel presents the genesis of Bolano's enterprise in prose; all the elements are here, highly compressed, at the moment when his talent explodes. From this springboard--which Bolano chose to publish in 2002, twenty years after he'd written it ("and even that I can't be certain of")--as if testing out a high dive, he would plunge into the unexplored depths of the modern novel. Voices speak from a dream, from a nightmare, from passersby, from an omniscient narrator, from "Roberto Bolano." Antwerp's fractured narration in fifty-four sections moves in multiple directions and cuts to the bone.
Between Parentheses: Essays, Articles and Speeches, 1998-2003by Roberto Bolaño Natasha Wimmer Ignacio Echevarria
The essays of Roberto Bolano in English at last. Between Parentheses collects most of the newspaper columns and articles Bolano wrote during the last five years of his life, as well as the texts of some of his speeches and talks and a few scattered prologues. "Taken together," as the editor Ignacio Echevarría remarks in his introduction, they provide "a personal cartography of the writer: the closest thing, among all his writings, to a kind of fragmented 'autobiography.'" Bolano's career as a nonfiction writer began in 1998, the year he became famous overnight for The Savage Detectives; he was suddenly in demand for articles and speeches, and he took to this new vocation like a duck to water. Cantankerous, irreverent, and insufferably opinionated, Bolano also could be tender (about his family and favorite places) as well as a fierce advocate for his heroes (Borges, Cortázar, Parra) and his favorite contemporaries, whose books he read assiduously and promoted generously. A demanding critic, he declares that in his "ideal literary kitchen there lives a warrior": he argues for courage, and especially for bravery in the face of failure. Between Parentheses fully lives up to his own demands: "I ask for creativity from literary criticism, creativity at all levels."
A Little Lumpen Novelitaby Roberto Bolaño Natasha Wimmer
A Little Lumpen Novelita percolates with a young writer's fierce ambitions and intensely tender love of women. "Now I am a mother and a married woman, but not long ago I led a life of crime": so Bianca begins her tale of growing up the hard way in Rome in A Little Lumpen Novelita. Orphaned overnight as a teenager--"our parents died in a car crash on their first vacation without us"--she drops out of school and gets a crappy job. At night, she is plagued by a terrible brightness, and soon she drifts into bad company. Her little brother brings home two petty criminals who need a place to stay. As the four of them share the family apartment and plot a strange crime, Bianca learns she can fall even lower... Electric and tense with foreboding, with its jagged, propulsive short chapters beautifully translated by Natasha Wimmer, A Little Lumpen Novelita--one of the last novels Roberto Bolano published--delivers a surprising, fractured fairy tale of taking control of one's fate.
The Savage Detectivesby Roberto Bolaño Natasha Wimmer
New Year's Eve, 1975: Arturo Belano and Ulises Lima, founders of the visceral realist movement in poetry, leave Mexico City in a borrowed white Impala. Their quest: to track down the obscure, vanished poet Cesárea Tinajero. A violent showdown in the Sonora desert turns search to flight; twenty years later Belano and Lima are still on the run. "The explosive first long work by the most exciting writer to come from south of the Rio Grande in a long time" (Ilan Stavans, Los Angeles Times), The Savage Detectives follows Belano and Lima through the eyes of the people whose paths they cross in Central America, Europe, Israel, and West Africa. This chorus includes the muses of visceral realism, the beautiful Font sisters; their father, an architect interned in a Mexico City asylum; a sensitive young follower of Octavio Paz; a foul-mouthed American graduate student; a French girl with a taste for the Marquis de Sade; the great-granddaughter of Leon Trotsky; a Chilean stowaway with a mystical gift for numbers; the anorexic heiress to a Mexican underwear empire; an Argentinian photojournalist in Angola; and assorted hangers-on, detractors, critics, lovers, employers, vagabonds, real-life literary figures, and random acquaintances. A polymathic descendant of Borges and Pynchon, Roberto Bolaño traces the hidden connection between literature and violence in a world where national boundaries are fluid and death lurks in the shadow of the avant-garde. The Savage Detectives is a dazzling original, the first great Latin American novel of the twenty-first century. Roberto Bolaño was born in Santiago, Chile, in 1953. He grew up in Chile and Mexico City, where he was a founder of the Infra-realist Poetry Movement. His first full-length novel, The Savage Detectives, received the Herralde Prize and the Rómulo Gallegos Prize when it appeared in 1998. Roberto Bolaño died in Blanes, Spain, at the age of fifty. A New York Times Notable Book of the Year; A Washington Post Top 10 Book of the Year; A New York Magazine Top 10 Book of the Year; A Los Angeles Times Favorite Book of the Year; A San Francisco Chronicle Best Book of the Year; A Kirkus Review Top 10 Book of the Year. In this dazzling novel, the book that established his international reputation, Roberto Bolaño tells the story of two modern-day Quixotes the last survivors of an underground literary movement, perhaps of literature itself on a tragicomic quest through a darkening, entropic universe: our own. The Savage Detectives is, in the words of El País, The kind of novel Borges would have written ... An original and magnificent book: funny, moving, important." "When I began reading The Savage Detectives last month, I had already devoured the first three of Bolaño's books to arrive in English two short novels, By Night in Chile and Distant Star, and the story collection Last Evenings on Earth and become a devoted fan. But I was still unprepared for The Savage Detectives, the work that made his reputation when it first appeared in 1998, and for which he was awarded the Rómulo Gallegos Prize. Available now in a seamless translation by Natasha Wimmer, this novel is an utterly unique achievement a modern epic rich in character and event, suffused in every sentence with Bolaño's unsettling mix of precision and mystery. It's a lens through which the strange becomes ordinary and the ordinary is often very strange.
Sudden Deathby Natasha Wimmer Álvaro Enrigue
A daring, kaleidoscopic novel about the clash of empires and ideas in the sixteenth century that continue to reverberate throughout modernity--a story unlike anything you've ever read before. Sudden Death begins with a brutal tennis match that could decide the fate of the world. The bawdy Italian painter Caravaggio and the loutish Spanish poet Quevedo battle it out before a crowd that includes Galileo, Mary Magdalene, and a generation of popes who would throw Europe into the flames. In England, Thomas Cromwell and Henry VIII behead Anne Boleyn, and her crafty executioner transforms her legendary locks into the most sought-after tennis balls of the time. Across the ocean in Mexico, the last Aztec emperors play their own games, as conquistador Hernán Cortés and his Mayan translator and lover, La Malinche, scheme and conquer, fight and f**k, not knowing that their domestic comedy will change the world. And in a remote Mexican colony a bishop reads Thomas More's Utopia and thinks that instead of a parody, it's a manual. In this mind-bending, prismatic novel, worlds collide, time coils, traditions break down. There are assassinations and executions, hallucinogenic mushrooms, utopias, carnal liaisons and papal dramas, artistic and religious revolutions, love stories and war stories. A dazzlingly original voice and a postmodern visionary, Álvaro Enrigue tells a grand adventure of the dawn of the modern era in this short, powerful punch of a novel. Game, set, match.

I bought this tiny orchid earlier in the year blooming. It eventually lost all the blooms. It has just started reblooming again. How many times a year do they do this?
Tiny orchid rebloom...
Tolumnias usually bloom once a year, mostly during winter, but can rebloom on the old spikes that remain green. A good reason to not cut off the spikes until they look like straw and only that part. If it is blooming on a new spike it is just a little confused about the weather. These like to get wet frequently and then dry quickly and should be grown in small clay pots.
Thanks for the information. I wasn't paying attention to see if it bloomed off an old spike, as I thought it was done for the year. I was thrilled to see it blooming! The clay pot it is in is real tiny and root bound. I don't know if I should repot later after blooming ends. Do they like to be root bound?
I'd have to see the plant in its pot to advise you. Tolumnias are twig epiphytes. They grow hanging from tree twigs. In situ they get lots of rain during the rainy season but dry out quickly. Being potted in a medium that stays wet for even a day or two will make these very short lived. Many professional grower friends say they can't grow them but they grow well for me. They grow well in a tiny pot and on a chunk of untreated coal, a piece of lava rock or a hunk of wood as opposed to fine bark. Never sphagnum! They also like a very bright position. Here are a few of mine from previous years. http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=9079886 http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=8929595 http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=8410842 http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=7784030
I'll take a picture of the pot it's in when I get home later and post. I love your orchids. Just beautiful!
:) Thank you.
It has tons of space and the spikes are new. And yes, orchids like to be more root bound than other potted plants. Actually, it's not so much that they like to be root bound...they'd rather have their roots hanging free, but most orchids hate being in a pot full of medium that keeps the roots constantly wet. If Tolumnias rebloom they do it lower down the spike. It appears to be growing in charcoal, which is perfect. Make sure you water it several times a week but don't let the pot stand in any water. Did it come with a tag? Where did you get it? If you like these flowers then you might enjoy their larger relatives, Oncidiums.
It's a good thing you posted this thread. I see several of mine are starting to spike and need attention. One has three spikes but the tips of the spikes were jammed up against the greenhut wall.
The tag says Tolumnia Jairak and the other side of the tag says Better-Gro (www.better-gro.com) which I guess is who grew it. I think I got it at Lowe's. I will have to check out the Oncidiums.
This is a picture of it I took a week ago. So I guess I just leave it in the same little pot? It does look healthy now. I just want to keep it that way. I thought it was through blooming and decided to feed it a little african violet liquid food. Of course it just ran right through this charcoal. But a couple weeks or so later these little buds started! :)
Jairak is the name of a huge series of Tolumnia hybrid varieties with other names attached, marketed extensively by Better Gro and sold at Lowes. I have several. I might have that one or be able to identify it at another time. Check out mjsponies post http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=8993394 Dyzzy also has some further down the line.

This invention relates to an image comparison system, and more particularly to such a system which detects extreme levels in a phase-only image to locate differences between a test image and a reference image.
Image comparison methods and equipment are widely used in manufacturing, testing, surveillance and many other applications. Current techniques of image comparison include image subtraction, color overlay and image flashing or alternating. Image subtraction algebraically combines the magnitude of each point or pixel of the reference image and test image so that like parts cancel and only differences remain. In the color overlay approach, each image is filtered with a different color so that differences appear in one or the other color and like parts appear as a blend of both colors. In image flashing, first one and then the other image is flashed on a screen: like parts remain steady; differences blink. However, these methods have a number of shortcomings and may fail or give poor results because of image-to-image misregistration and differences in overall intensity levels of the two images.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a comparison system and method which is insensitive to misregistration between test and reference images.
It is a further object of this invention to provide such a system and method which is insensitive to differences in overall intensity levels between the reference and test images.
It is a further object of this invention to provide such a method and system in which the image data is normalized and permits the use of a universal threshold to detect differences between the test and reference images.
The invention results from the realization that by forming a composite image from a reference and test image, the like parts of the two images become periodic and so can be easily suppressed in a phase-only image while the unlike parts are aperiodic and thus easily detected.
The invention features an image comparison system having means for forming a composite image composed of a reference image and a test image. There are means for generating a two-dimensional image spectrum from the composite image and means for whitening the two-dimensional image spectrum by setting the magnitude of every point of the two-dimensional image spectrum to a uniform level. There are means responsive to the means for whitening to construct the phase-only image of the composite image, and there are means for detecting a value of the phase-only image exceeding a predetermined threshold which is representative of the location of a difference between the reference and the test images.
In a preferred embodiment, the means for forming may include an image buffer for combining the reference and test images into the composite image. A sensor may be used for obtaining one or both of the reference and test images. A storage device may also be used for storing one or both of the reference and test images. The image buffer may include an optical storage means. The means for generating may include a transform circuit, which may be a Fourier transform circuit, a Fast Fourier transform circuit, a Hadamard transform circuit, or a similar transform circuit. The means for generating may instead include optical means, such as a lens.
The means for whitening may include means for normalizing the complex components at each point of the two-dimensional image. The means for constructing may include an inverse transform circuit, such as a Fourier, Fast Fourier, Hadamard, or any other transform circuit as previously indicated. In certain transformations, such as those using the Hadamard approach, each point of the phase-only image may have a phase of either zero or 180 degrees.
The invention also features a method of image comparison, which includes forming a composite image composed of a reference image and a test image and generating a two-dimensional image spectrum from the composite image. The two-dimensional image spectrum is then whitened by setting the magnitude of every point of the two-dimensional image spectrum to a uniform level. The phase-only image of the composite image is then constructed. Finally, values of the phase-only image exceeding a predetermined threshold are detected representative of the location of a difference between the reference and test image.

FIG. 16 is a diagram showing the method of this invention.
There is shown in FIG. 1 an image comparison system 10 according to this invention which includes a two-dimensional transform unit 12, a whitening operation unit 14, a two-dimensional inverse transform unit 16 and a detection unit 17. A composite image 18, FIG. 2, composed of a reference image 20 and test image 22, is fed into the two-dimensional transform unit 12. There a transform is made of the image using Fourier, Fast Fourier, Hadamard, or other techniques, such as cosine, M-sequence or others, using either cartesian or polar coordinates. The image spectrum thereby produced is delivered to the whitening operation unit 14, where the magnitude of each point of the image spectrum is normalized to produce a uniform level of amplitude and produce a white noise-like spectrum. The white noise-like spectrum is then submitted to the two-dimensional inverse transform unit 16, which again performs according to a known transform technique such as the Fourier, Hadamard or any of the others previously listed with respect to unit 12. The phase-only image at the output of two-dimensional inverse transform unit 16 is delivered to detector unit 17, which compares each of the image point or pixel values to a reference threshold and responds to those that exceed that threshold as an indication of a difference between the reference image 20 and test image 22. For example, the defect 23 in test image 22, FIG. 2, appears at position 23a in the phase-only image 25, FIG. 9, which appears at the output of inverse transform unit 16. In this inverse transform operation the phase-only image of the original composite image is constructed. It is a phase-only image because the amplitude levels have been eliminated in the whitening operation and only the phase angle of the information relating to each point in the image spectrum still remains.
The processing of the composite image through system 10 to the final phase-only image is depicted in FIGS. 3-6, where a slice through the composite image is represented, FIG. 3, by two triangular wave shapes 30, 32, which represent the reference image and test image respectively. The test image has a defect 34. After the first transform operation by two-dimensional transform unit 12, the image spectrum appears as shown in FIG. 4, where the spectral characteristic 36 has a peak 38 due to the repeated like components of the images, and the defect 34 is typically contained in the higher frequency extent 40 of characteristic 36. Peak 37 is derived from the average level of the composite image. It is the periodicity reflected by wave shapes 30 and 32 that enables the use of the phase-only image technique to detect defects. Following this, in the whitening step, characteristic 36, FIG. 5, is normalized, resulting in a single uniform amplitude level 42 for all of the points in the spectrum. Thus, peaks 37 and 38 have been decreased and the lower area of higher frequency derivation has been increased. Inverse transformation, FIG. 6, results in the cancellation of peaks 37, 38, and lower section 40, and the emphasizing of the defect 34 contained in the lower section 40.
The whitening or normalizing operation can be understood by referring to FIG. 7, which illustrates the complex value of a single point 50 of the image, whose magnitude is represented by vector 52 having a real component A and an imaginary component iB. When each of those components is normalized, that is divided by √A2 +B2, the magnitude of each of the points in the image is made uniform, for example, at unity or at some other value, as shown in FIG. 8, and the only variation then remaining is the phase angle. That is the condition pictured in FIG. 5. When applying a Hadamard transform, the whitening results in a normalization that provides only two phase angles: zero and 180 degrees. This is also known as a sign-only image, since zero and 180 may be viewed as plus and minus values.
Since the normalizing or whitening operation effects a white noise-like spectrum output 70, FIG. 10, the mean value 72 of the output is essentially zero. The threshold, both positive and negative, 74 and 76, is then set at a level which accepts substantially all of the output signals 70 with the exception of extreme excursions, such as 78, which are interpreted as defects or differences between the test and the reference image. In one application, a threshold setting at approximately seven standard deviations provided a probability of error of one part in a million. Since the image has been normalized in the whitening process, the threshold level will be the same for all images of the same size, that is having the same number of pixels, and thus a universal threshold level can be used to apply to all applications of the system.
In one construction, an essentially electronic implementation of the image comparison system 10a, FIG. 11, according to this invention may be made using a control computer 80, using, for example, an Intel 8086 microprocessor, and having an image buffer 79 for receiving the test image 82 from sensor 84 and forming it into a composite image in conjunction with the reference image from memory 86. Throughout the figures, like parts are given like numbers and similar parts like numbers accompanied by successive lower case letters. The composite image is then delivered by computer 80 over line 88 to two-dimensional transform unit 12a, where the composite image is processed as previously explained with respect to FIGS. 1-10. The phase-only image from unit 16 or the detection information 17 may then be fed back to computer 80 for processing or display on monitor 90. Although in FIG. 11 the reference image is illustrated as stored in memory 86 and test image 82 is presented through sensor 84, this is not a necessary limitation of the invention. For example, their sources could be interchanged, or both could be provided through memory, or both provided through an input sensor.
Two-dimensional transform unit 12a may be implemented with a standard butterfly circuit 100, FIG. 12, which when used to perform a fast Fourier transform receives pixel signals U, V at its inputs, multiplies the V signal by the complex number Wk N, and obtains at its output X and Y, where X=U+VWk N, and Y=U-VWk N,. Butterfly circuit 100 may be used in groups, as shown in FIG. 13, to increase the speed of processing. Such circuits are fully explained in Theory and Application of Digital Signal Processing, L. R. Rabiner and B. Gold, Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, 1975.
The normalization process which occurs in whitening operation unit 14, as explained in FIG. 7 and 8, employs squarer circuits 102 and 104, FIG. 14, to square the A and B values in adder 106 to combine those values. The combined value at the output of adder 106 is then submitted to square root circuit 108, whose output is submitted to divider circuit 110 as the divisor for the value A and divider 112 as the divisor for value B, which results in the uniform value for vector 52a of FIG. 8.
In FIG. 11, in the electronic implementation of the image comparison system of FIG. 1, the means for forming a composite image includes image buffer 79 in computer 80. Alternatively, in an optical implementation, FIG. 15, the composite image may be formed in an optical input transducer 120 such as a liquid crystal or on a frame of film. The composite image is delivered to the two-dimensional transform unit 12b, which may consist simply of a lens, which transforms and projects the composite image as a Fourier transform in the Fourier transform plane 122. Subsequently, the image spectrum at the Fourier transform plane 122 may be normalized in a whitening operation unit 14b and then resubmitted to lens 12b or a similar lens for the inverse Fourier transformation, after which detection may be accomplished.
A simple and straightforward understanding of the method of this invention may be understood with respect to FIG. 16, where the reference image 160 and test image 162 are delivered and formed into a composite image in step 164. Following that, there is generated in step 166 a two-dimensional image spectrum from the composite image. Then the image spectrum is whitened in step 168 and a reverse transform is performed to construct the phase-only image in step 170 from the whitened image spectrum. Finally, extreme values of amplitude are detected from the phase-only image to determine differences between the reference image and the test image in step 172.

Erie Snapshot: Eerie Roller Girls skate their way to fun, fitness and competition
When the thumping music and flashing lights announce the Eerie Roller Girls, taking on NEO Audio Assault in the first roller derby bout of the season, the alter egos take over. Christy Barnes becomes Chris T. Bone, and captain Katrina Putnam skates as Roid Rage.
Putnam, a full-time student, shared after the bout, "I love the aggression of it. I love that women can play a full-contact sport and be recognized for it. A lot of us are mothers, students or professionals, and at the end of a stressful day, we come out here and hit each other."
More than 200 fans, adults of all ages and many children, settle around the Presque Isle Skating & Event Center to cheer on the women as they bang and skate their way around the rink. Some sit in the "suicide section" between turns three and four where the pack of skaters sometimes drifts into the crowd. Six referees enforce the rules against illegal hitting or tripping, and numerous scorers keep tally as the opposing jammers race to get past blockers to score.
Shannon Earley once skated as Bruis' Anya Bootay and is now on the NEO Board of Directors. "Most leagues are nonprofit, and a lot of them give back to charity. I like the duality of the sport," said Earley as she pointed to a skater. "See M-80 there, she works as a guidance counselor during the day."
After the bout Putnam, 32, added, "It was a really hard-fought battle. Even though we lost, I'm super-proud of my team and my league. Everybody was able to keep their composure and keep going forward."
The Eerie Roller Girls' next bout is June 1. For more information, visit www.eerierollergirls.com.

Lovehoney Plus Size Love Me Lace Babydoll and G-String Black
Only: €29.95
So flattering
Reviewed: 04 October 2015 by immy89, a Straight Single Female
I love this garment. As a bigger woman I've always found it difficult to get lingerie that looks sexy and accentuates and flatters my body.
This arrived in fairly plain packaging (let's be honest, unless it's a gift it doesn't need to be tied up with a bow). The fabric feels lovely and the stitching and accents are of a high quality.
Now, for the fit. If you are larger on top this may not be for you. I have a fairly large bust (38dd) and found myself to be spilling out of the top of the soft cups, although this can of course just add to the illusion. But that notwithstanding, what I love about this baby doll is how flattering it is and how it hides my least favourite bits about my body, namely extra lumps and bumps. The fabric flows nicely and finishes just at the top of my hips (I'm 5'10" and got the biggest size just to give you an idea)
I feel so sexy in this and judging from reactions I'm not the only one who thinks so. I teamed it with stockings and a suspender belt for added sex appeal but you could easily wear alone and it would still be lovely.
Overall, if you're a plus size lady this is great to add to the collection or to introduce sexy lingerie to your play time.
- Pros
- Fabric, shape, coverage.
- Cons
- Cups are a little small in comparison to the sizing.
- Bottom line
- Excellent product for the price.

Amazing Babydoll
Reviewed: 23 August 2015 by Audrianna87, a Straight Married Female
Once again, delivery was quick and well packaged, as always from Lovehoney - top service.
Upon receiving, this babydoll the was dress securely packaged in a see-through plastic packet.
Upon opening the dress, I was greeted with a lovely soft material. It has excellent stretch to it and is comfy when on. It also looks sexy when on. It also comes with a lovely little G-String to add to the sex appeal.
The material on the bust is a lovely see-through mesh-type pattern with some lovely bows on the straps. I often get irritated with certain mesh materials, but this was not the case with this, which was great.
The babydoll has a fastening clasp at the front just under the bust, which is a great feature for quick access.
The dress was easy to get on. The material is of a great quality.
I would definitely recommend this babydoll. It is one of my favourite ones we own now.
- Pros
- Quality, material, fit, sex appeal.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Amazing little babydoll.

Black beauty
Reviewed: 02 August 2015 by GeekyEleanor, a Straight Married Female
I've been lusting over babydolls for a while, waiting as I gathered enough money to buy one, so when I was chosen as a secret tester for this one, I started doing a little bit of a victory dance on the beach (I was on vacation when I received the email), thanking Cazz and the whole LH team. Thank you for bestowing this opportunity on me, so without further ado, let's get down to business.
The package arrived a customary week later along with another tester item I'll review later and I couldn't be more excited about it. I immediately took this one out and took a good look at it.
Just out of the transparent plastic bag, the babydoll looked stunning. Nice see-through cloth with lace inserts around the bust in nice floral patterns we're used to see on all LH brand pieces of lingerie. Upon a first inspection I couldn't spot any particular flaw, nothing evident or that catches the eye.
I decided to try it right away, to see how it fit.
Well, it fits good, if you don't have a 38DD cup like me. Let me elaborate: the fitting is perfect, it sways in the most alluring way, actually a bit large for me around the waist (the tester size I requested was a 1x/2x as I have previously bought 3x/4x LH items and found they were a little too large for me, most of all the thongs or briefs in general) but the bust part always messes me up big time.
It's just the way my body is, can't do much about it. Big accent on "me", anyone else might find this just perfect for their body. So if you have big breasts and you're interested in this babydoll, go straight for the bigger sizing. While it looked decently good on me, I realised pretty soon that requesting a bigger size would have been better. Only for the boobs. As usual. Ah well...
In any case, I felt really good wearing it, knowing my boyfriend it's not the type of garment that I would wear for long periods at a time, it's just his type of lingerie and he usually sees it off as soon as he can. The thong is nice to wear, even though I'm not a fan of thongs, and is cut just the right way. There are no stitching flaws that make it chafe or itch.
One thing I really appreciated was the front clasp that made everything easier. Good thinking and great design detail, I have to say it. It's easy to get it on and take it off when things get frisky and it doesn't get tangled anywhere, so, again, good thinking. Also, the straps that form the halterneck are elastic to a certain degree but sturdy and comfortable, you only need either someone to help you tie them to the right height or be a little bit of a contortionist (or just a normal person, I'm clumsy as heck when I need to do something without watching).
Then it came a closer inspection. As I looked at the seams for stitching issues, I found only a couple around the clasp, some loose threads, nothing that couldn't be corrected with a pair of small scissors and some carefulness. I didn't encounter any other flaws or visible defects even while inspecting it closely. To the touch, the cloth feels nice, even if it's fully synthetic. It's good quality nylon and feels really soft to the touch and good to look at, it doesn't feel cheap at all. Even when wearing it, it's smooth and silky on the skin.
The details on the lace as top notch, just as every other LH lingerie item I've dealt with. It shows the care LoveHoney pours into what they do. Also, speaking about details, I love the tiny LH heart sewn on one of the straps. Classy and nice way to show the brand.
What more can I say? Overall it's really a great piece of lingerie, one of the finest I own at the moment (many of them are LH branded) and one that will be used for a long while.
If I have to point out a flaw, it's the thong. It's kind of plain, it would have been nice to see it coordinated with the lacy bust of the babydoll, but that's just me. It looks stunning no matter what. Great job, really.
- Pros
- Sinfully soft and sexy.
- Cons
- A lacy thong would have made it perfect.
- Bottom line
- Another bullseye for Lovehoney.

The story of John Steinbeck's The Winter of Our Discontent revolves around Ethan Allen Hawley, a resident of the New Baytown community near Long Island; he is a former owner of a local grocery store, but his fortunes have recently taken a downturn as his business has been taken over by an Italian immigrant named Marullo who has reduced Ethan's status to that of a clerk.

I need a little help.
I have bigger hips and don't tend to like wearing jeans in general, even pre-pregnancy. I have to wear the trouser cut with the bigger legs, otherwise my hips look really big. Of the maternity jeans I've found so far, they all tend to "hug" my hips, and really accentuate the widest part by coming in a little too tight just below my hips. Skinny jeans do not look good on me and straight leg cuts don't work, either. Some boot cuts are okay, but I bought a pair from Kohls several months ago (they were on sale), and they just look horrible now. I'm having a real body issue crisis because of these stupid jeans.
Does anyone know where I can find a wider cut style of maternity jeans? I am going to have to buy them in the store and try them on, but any recommendations are really appreciated!

Road weary Lightning fade in 3rd game in 4 nights.
Ben Bishop allowed 2 goals on 23 shots for the loss. He was screened/was dealing with traffic on both goals he allowed.
First Period
Second Period
17:52 DET Nyquist (1), (Kronwall, Zetterberg)(PP)
Third Period
8:25 DET Zetterberg (2), (Larkin, Quincey)
11:03 TB Callahan (2), (Drouin, Stralman)
18:12 DET Quincey (1), (Miller, Richards)(EN)
Jonathan Drouin was the game's third star.
The Lightning really ran out of gas for much of the final two periods of the game. Playing their 3rd game in 4 days, they had very little push until they were chasing the game down 2-0. It didn't help that Detroit played the game like it was their Stanley Cup Final.
Nikita Nesterov was -1 with 2 shots and 2 hits in 17:19.
