From Kirkus Reviews:
Fifteen-year-old Jake McGreevy stumbles into an art-world mystery in Vogel's (Celtic Run, 2012) middle-grade novel, the second featuring teen gadget buff Jake McGreevy.
Jake and his two best friends, Julie and Ben, take a holiday trip to a performing arts camp in Chicago. Because his art historian mother died 13 years earlier in Chicago, Jake also plans to use the trip as an opportunity to learn more about her. As he wistfully reads through his mother's old notebook, Jake uncovers clues as to what really happened to her. She was inspecting a recently discovered mural—believed to have been painted by Mary Cassatt—and shortly after she began expressing doubts about the work, she was hit by a drunken driver. Her notes, however, indicate that there may have been something more sinister at work in her death. Jake, Julie, Ben and their new friend, Natalie, set out to learn the truth about Jake's mother and about the Cassatt mural. During their search, tidbits about the 1893 World's Fair, Chicago's architecture and the science behind Jake's gadgets are woven smoothly into the story. Meanwhile, the kids explore the historic city, get to know residents of a local retirement home, hoodwink the strict dean of their camp, and navigate the ups and downs of teenage life. Jake is a likable and sympathetic hero—intelligent but impulsive, easygoing and funny with his pals but a little nervous with girls. His friends are well-developed, creating a fun cast of secondary characters as well as a strong support system for Jake. Many scenes are set in famous Chicago landmarks, including a thrilling chase sequence in the Museum of Science and Industry and a suspenseful moment in Macy's Walnut Room that kicks off the story's action-packed climax. It's not necessary to read the first Jake McGreevy book in order to follow this one, but readers who enjoy Jake's Chicago adventures will likely want to pick up the earlier novel as well.
A rollicking, fun mystery with a young, charismatic hero.

Chicago Bound is a Jake McGreevy Novel by Sean Vogel. Jake and his best friend and rock-climbing companion, Ben, are on their way to Chicago to attend a performing arts camp during Christmas vacation. Going to Chicago brings some sadness and nostalgia for Jake, as his mother died there in a car accident many years before, when Jake was only two years old. While he's unpacking a moving box before he leaves for the bus trip, he comes across a Teddy Bear bought for him by his mother. It has an Art Institute of Chicago tag on it. It also has a bit of discolored thread along a seam which, when pulled, reveals a crumpled note with some cryptic instructions from his mother. The note reveals the existence of a journal which Jake determines to find once he's in Chicago.
Sean Vogel's preteen adventure mystery, Chicago Bound, is action-packed and highly entertaining. Jake and his pal, Ben, are high-tech versions of the TV hero, MacGyver, and it's a lot of fun to watch how they rig up a tracker to let them know when the camp's very strict Dean is approaching. I also loved the historical information that is part of the underlying mystery concerning the lost World's Fair mural of Mary Cassatt, a mural that is still missing outside the pages of Chicago Bound. This book also gives you a good idea into what a performing arts camp would be like, especially when the conductor happens to be world-famous and not a little bit intimidating. Art, mystery, music, humor and adventure — Chicago Bound has it all, and Jake, Ben, Natalie, Julie, even the stern Dean make it come alive. This is a grand read and recommended for anyone who's still young-at-heart enough to enjoy a bit of action and adventure.
From Dianne Bylo (tometenderblogspot):
Fifteen-year-old Jake and his two friends, Ben and Julie are off to a special "camp" for gifted and talented kids. While a trip to Chicago during the holiday season is exciting in itself, for Jake, it is a reminder that his mother was killed there while pursuing her passion, verifying old art when he was just a toddler. Was her death an accident? Did she leave clues in an old journal that Jake treasures? Do NOT think this is a sad or downbeat tale! Chicago Bound by Sean Vogel is a wonderfully ingenious and fun adventure tale for young readers whose minds know no limits!
Sean Vogel has given his characters life with his brilliant sense for how four smart, clever and daring young teens could act if cut loose alone, in a large city, determined to solve both the mystery surrounding Jake's mother's death and the mystery of where the REAL painting is hidden. Perhaps this is how MacGiver was as a child?
The plot is clever, the execution is brilliant, over-the-top, fast-paced and completely captivating as I was taken from the academy where the children consistently out-witted the staff to a nursing home where the residents rise to Jake's assistance with a sense of purpose! I admit, as the action revved up, I was there, my adrenaline was pumping and I could feel the excitement of the moment coming through each word written by the author who gives us a story to remember and heroes to love! Never doubt the power of youth, friendship or loyalty! You might want to watch out for those "seniors," too!
An ARC edition was provided by MB Publishing, LLC in exchange for my honest review! Please note: this is part of a series, but lost nothing as a stand alone!
From Sally Webster, author of Eve's Daughter: Modern Woman, a Mural by Mary Cassatt:
Having spent many years searching for Mary Cassatt's 1893 mural done for Chicago's World's Fair, I was delighted to encounter Sean Vogel's Chicago Bound in which the young Jake and his pals visit the city and discover that Jake's mother was murdered in her own hunt for the mural. Tracking down the killer, and the Cassatt painting, takes the teenagers on a thrill-packed adventure from the Art Institute of Chicago, to a tea room in Marshall Fields, to the grand finale in, of all places, a retirement home. Chicago Bound is loving and eventful, and most of all a great read.
From Diane Donovan, Senior eBook Reviewer, Midwest Book Review:
Chicago Bound is a powerful new Jake McGreevy novel that provides another thriller for middle-grade audiences; this one centered on Jake's search in Chicago's art world for clues to his mother's untimely death.
When Jake accepts an invitation to join an elite group of students visiting Chicago for a two-week performing arts fundraising camp, he suddenly realizes that he'll be seeing, for the first time, the place where his mother was killed by a hit-and-run driver. Moreover, he'll be viewing the huge Mary Cassatt mural which his mother had been in the process of authenticating in the days before her death. With the discovery of a puzzling note from his mother hidden in the teddy bear which was her last gift to him, he comes to understand that his mother recognized a threat to her work and possibly her life – and provided a cryptic message to her family in the one place that would likely reach them.
Spicing his visit to Chicago is the opportunity to spend time with his friends Ben and Julie, both of whom match his skill at drawing quick conclusions and using technology to extend abilities, and who support his determination to investigate his mother's death.
Right away they encounter a formidable obstacle in the form of one Dean Stanley, a take-charge director determined to keep their group in line and prevent any mishaps. When Jake discovers the reasons behind Dean Stanley's fierce commitment to obedience and safety, it only lends fire to his evolving determination to find out what really happened to his mother in Chicago so many years ago.
Supported by his best friends, Jake follows his mother's last footsteps which reveal art clues, issues of authenticity, and possibly a masterpiece which has yet to surface.
Mixed emotions accompany the protagonists at each step of their discoveries, making for a fast-paced and involving story line: ""My mother spent her life looking for this. She died because of it. I don't know if I like the mural or hate it."
Factor in unknown assailants who become determined to do anything to prevent Jake from learning the truth and the factor of time (his investigation must be done in the course of a short holiday, which is supposed to include performing for fundraising efforts) and add in the uncertainties of romantic possibilities with two very different girls and the stage fright of a friend who needs to overcome his fears to move ahead and you have a fine, multi-faceted read that pairs psychological overtones with a vivid, fast-paced plot.
Time is running out on many levels: for Jake, for his revelations about his mother's last days and final contribution to the art world, and for a short stay in Chicago which is likely too quick to solve much of anything.
Like a compelling musical piece, Chicago Bound opens with an interesting promise of mystery and moves quickly and solidly to a crescendo of cat-and-mouse moves between Jake and his friends and unknown assailants who are committed to hiding the truth.
Readers will be fascinated to the end – and surprised by an ending which blends an art history investigation, a mother and son's lasting connections, and commitments between good friends.
From MartysReads:
A definite 5-star book, I read this book without the benefit of the prior Jake McGreevy book and I felt it stood alone quite well. Jake, 15, and his friends Ben and Julie are off to a music "camp" for gifted musicians in Chicago that will raise money to help schools keep their music & afterschool programs. Jake's "MacGuyver-like" talents provide some escapades and fun in the off time.
For Jake, this trip has extra poignancy, because Chicago is where his mother was killed when he was just a toddler. His mother had been there in Chicago to verify the provenance (history of ownership and authenticity) of a famous Mary Cassatt mural, and Jake stumbles upon clues that his mother felt she was in danger. In no time at all, Jake manages to be in danger as well.
END: Triumphant and Touching — and next up IS Jake McGreevy #3: Paris Plunder!

Nice vengeance-fic - I never liked that woman and did one of my own. You captured Mayu's utter heartbreak very well. But - in both the anime and the manga, there is a blink-and-you-miss-it scene wherein Wanta is scratching at the door to Maple House as Mayu is crying over her cake and new home. He had already ditched the woman. Still a good story, though.

We stayed at this hotel after reviewing all the comments on TripAdvisor. The hotel grounds were clean as was the lobby. The check in was easy although there never seems to be a clerk at the front desk. Our room was a very basic motel room however it was clean. This is a low budget operation thus the towels and amenities in the bathroom are bare minimum. The night we stayed there were only 11 vehicles in the parking lot thus the motel was almost empty. The pool area was clean. The internet worked well even though we were in an end room far from the front desk. Breakfast was in a room just off the lobby and that room was very clean. The breakfast was just a basic continental breakfast regardless that the sign in the room referenced a "Super Breakfast". The refrigerator in the room has NO items in it---nothing---it was empty. You had your choice of two bulk cereals and two juices. There was two half loaves of bread and just a few jellies displayed. There was a waffle machine with butter and bulk syrup. There was no fresh fruit when we were there. The Danish section had a total of 8 small sweet rolls in it. There are two pots of coffee and not much else. This si by far the skirmish breakfast we have seen in a great many years at any USA hotel. The one plus point is that the area was clean and we don't know how that was accomplished as we never saw anyone in that area.
We are generous in giving this hotel three stars as it is really closer to 2 ½ stars. We give the extra half due to the cleanliness.

Oh, love this take on how she got her mark. The last line of hers is perfectly haunting and, I think, perfectly embodies her devotion to him :)

My canon-shipper heart felt a little sorry for Rodolphus in the beginning. I couldn't control it.
This was an interesting way of how Bellatrix got her Dark Mark. Different to what I've read before. I liked it. I think you characterised Bellatrix's thoughts well. It is a bit difficult for me to imagine Voldemort having sex... in anyway (again, a canon thing) but I love Bella :)
Great job!

Interesting take on how Bellatrix got her Mark (and makes one wonder how the other Death Eaters received theirs... o.O). As always, you write Bellamort very well. I liked the little glimpse of Rodolphus reaction to Bellatrix 'devotion' as well.
| slightlysmall chapter 1 . 12/19/2012
An interesting take on their relationship. How many times have you written their first sexual encounter? I like the sort of supernatural element to it here with the soul it. Well done as always.
| The Crownless Queen chapter 1 . 12/19/2012
Really nice - if that's the right world. I love Bellatrix/Voldemort but I always found their couple a bit creepy :p Anyway, I really like how you wrote this ;)
| autumn midnights chapter 1 . 12/18/2012
Just like in your other Bellamort fic I reviewed, I think you did a wonderful job writing both Bellatrix and Voldemort, and that they're very in-character. The dialogue between them also seems to be very realistic as well, and I can picture them saying these things. Bellatrix's emotions and thoughts that you show are very well-written, as well, and I think you write her so well - she's a hard character for me to write, personally, so I admire people who write her well. I like the short depiction of her relationship with Rodolphus as well, the interaction between them is similar to how I imagine them. Spelling and grammar was very good, and I think you did a very nice job with this fic.
| whirlwinds of watercolours chapter 1 . 12/16/2012
This was an interesting take on Bellatrix getting the Dark Mark. Not that I've read any fics like this before, but I did enjoy it. Good job!

An intriguing look at what goes on behind closed doors, and just where love and loyalty lies. Very nice.
| ProfessorSquirrell chapter 1 . 12/14/2012
I love how submissive Bella is with him. It's fascinating. And I also really love how demanding he is. I never found this pairing to be all that...sexy, I suppose...?... until I wrote it. It was quite fun. And I think I understand why you love it so much now. hehe. The last bits of dialogue about her giving him her soul was wonderful as well. Nicely done :)

Ahhh le sigh. I think i am now a bellamlrt shipper. I love how dark this pairing is, how its not mushy and its about pride and status and I love his saracasm and his power and how he owns /all/ of her, even her soul. I really loved it :)

- "I'm going to show them. If I turn over the Great Kanoka Disk like I said I would, I'll learn a secret that will make them beg me to join a Knowledge Tower!"
- — Ehrye's thoughts, Mystery of Metru Nui
| Ehrye
Ehrye is an ambitious Ko-Matoran native to Metru Nui and one of the six Matoran that knew the location of a Great Disk.
Metru NuiEdit
While on Metru Nui, Ehrye was an errand runner for the seers and apprentices in the Knowledge Towers. However, he aspired to be a Scholar, a promotion Nuju denied him. He somehow learned the location of a Great Disk, and was going to give away the information to a Po-Matoran named Ahkmou for a fee. However, when he went to receive his payment he was welcomed by Nidhiki, a Dark Hunter. When asked for the Great Kanoka Disk, Ehrye refused, for the Great Kanoka Disks were the key to defeating the Morbuzakh, a vine-like being that had recently made several attacks against Metru Nui.
When Nuju became a Toa, Vakama had a vision depicting all of the six Matoran. Using this information, Nuju tracked down Ehrye to a very strange location: the top levels of a crystal Knowledge Tower. Ehrye had been trapped under a bunch of blocks by Nidhiki in anger, systematically designed so it would topple down upon the Matoran if not moved properly, and intended to delay the Toa.
Ehrye was brought to the Great Temple. There, with the other Matoran, the Toa Metru discussed everything and deduced that Ahkmou was the traitor based on evidence found all over the island. Onewa wanted to teach him a lesson, but Vakama held him back.
Whenua, Nuju, Ehrye, and Tehutti journeyed to the Archives of Onu-Metru in search of the Onu-Metru Great Disk, left only with the ominous clue that 'no door must be left unopened.' Although there were thousands of doors in the Archives, Tehutti knew what level the Disk was on, but wasn't allowed to join the Toa in their search. To make sure he and Ehrye didn't get away, they were both placed in a level of the Archives Tehutti wasn't familiar with and would surely get lost in if he tried to find a way out. The Toa Metru proceeded into the level, and met with a gigantic Ussal, Frost Leeches, a Two-Headed Tarakava, and an Archives Beast. After using all of their powers, intelligence and hard-earned friendship to find the Onu-Metru Great Disk in a supply closet, they proceeded to Ko-Metru.
At Ko-Metru, they went from Knowledge Tower to Knowledge Tower in search of the Ko-Metru Great Disk, left only with the clue, 'In Ko-Metru, find where sky and ice are joined.' Tehutti and Ehrye were left behind, largely because Tehutti had been struck by a Keerakh's Staff of Confusion, losing all sense of time and space and believing he was back in the Archives, cataloging a Fikou spider exhibit. They traveled through the part of Ko-Metru that Ehrye told them the Great Disk was in, evading the Keerakh and swinging from ice cables. Eventually, they found the location of the Great Disk, and while Whenua caused a serious distraction below by tunneling through a road, making the Keerakh leave the area, Nuju went up and grabbed the Great Disk from the middle of an icicle hanging from one of the highest Knowledge Towers.
They then proceeded to the Great Temple, avoiding a Bordakh squad, and met with the other Toa. Using their gained knowledge from Ehrye, Vhisola, and Nuhrii, they deduced that the Morbuzakh King Root would be in the Great Furnace. So they traveled to the Great Furnace, but were attacked by Morbuzakh vines before they got in. Tehutti showed the Matoran something he had learned in the Archives, how to merge into something known as a Matoran Nui. The Matoran Nui batted off the Morbuzakh while the Toa Metru went in, but returned to their original forms eventually. All of the Matoran were exhilarated, and thought it was a great experience, but Ahkmou backed away and fled into the shadows. Immediately afterward the other five Matoran were captured by Vahki on Teridax's orders and were placed inside Matoran Spheres, as the Makuta was disguised as Turaga Dume. Ehrye was transported to Mata Nui by the Toa Metru, along with the rest of the Matoran trapped in spheres.
Mata NuiEdit
Ehrye's size and strength was reduced as a consequence of his time in a Matoran Sphere and he also lost all his previous memories. Despite this, under Turaga Nuju's supervision and with pieces from the dismantled Airships used in the Great Rescue, he helped build Ko-Koro where he resided with the other Ko-Matoran.
One thousand years later, during The Rebuilding, Ehrye was rebuilt into a stronger form. Later several Rahkshi attacked Mata Nui, forcing the Ko-Matoran to evacuate Ko-Koro.
Return to Metru NuiEdit
Ehrye later helped in the construction of Boats to facilitate his, and the other Matoran's return to Metru Nui. Once they had reached, the Matoran, including Ehrye, worked on the city's reconstruction, until the usage of the Staff of Artakha restored Metru Nui to its' former glory.
After Teridax's defeat at the hands of Mata Nui, Ehrye and the other Matoran evacuated to the reformed planet of Spherus Magna, where he now resides.
Abilities & TraitsEdit
Unlike most other Ko-Matoran, Ehrye is not patient. He is enthusiastic, quick to act, talkative, and expectant, which impeded his dream of becoming a seer. Nuju instead forced him to be a messenger. Thus, he sought the Great Disk of Ko-Metru, hoping that by doing so he would gain recognition and be allowed to become a Scholar.
Ehrye often carried a level 7 weaken Kanoka with a code of 437.

Fireflies and Summer
It's amazing how the smallest of things, like the light of a firefly, can bring you back over 20 years.
It's amazing how the smallest of things, like the light of a firefly, can bring you back over 20 years.
The words you are about to read are not my own because I would never be caught dead watching The Bachelor. I hired out a ghost writer who goes by the name Luap. So without further ado… here is what I, I mean here is what HE learned from watching The Bachelor.
Since I had the breaker off while I was messing around getting the wires back to how they were all connected before I started trying to fix the chandelier, and then I thought I might as well replace the lightbulb and then go switch on the breaker. As I twisted the lightbulb in, something funny happened…
The goal for me is to give my wife and kids as many years of adventures as possible. That to me is the real driving force.
The luxury of time is something we all have. Yep, that's right… I said it and I will say it again. Time is a luxury we all have. Now I know the initial thoughts some people are having are "Stippichio, I am working 18 jobs, get three hours of sleep, make almost no money, have…
Details are important. They can make or break the kind gestures that we try to do.
I love the community that I am surrounded by and am honestly humbled by all the love and generosity.

So yes, they sent out a promo can of Booty Sweat, Alpa Chino's energy drink, from Tropic Thunder. After what a ridiculous good time the movie was (and the commentary--it's genius) I felt confident that I should sample this unfortunately named beverage.
This was created by Boston America (who brought you the Duff energy drink) and so I had high hopes--usually a movie tie-in promo drink is boring and uninteresting, but Duff was rather tasty.
This, though, is less successful. The main taste is cherry-ish, followed by sugary syrupy. Granted, usually when drinking one of these things (energy drinks in general, I mean), you're prepared for an onslaught of sugar--it's an energy drink, after all. That would be like ordering a cheeseburger and then bitching about the cheese taste. But even for an energy drink, this is strong. And the cherry taste--well, I'm not a big fan of cherry anyway, but this tastes more artificial than even most artificial cherry flavors. It's nowhere near the excellent cherry taste execution that we got with Game Fuel Mountain Dew, for example.
As a novelty can, it succeeds--especially since the MPAA has a warning on here that tells me the can contains "pervasive language, including sexual references, violent content and drug material." As a drink, not so much. Stick with the DVD of the movie.

It moves some common logic from StatementTriggerExecutor and RowTriggerExecutor to GenericTriggerExecutor so that it is not duplicated. The refactoring also fixes two problems with the original logic: - the before and after result sets were left open if the WHEN clause of a statement trigger returned false - a row trigger that fired multiple times in a single statement would create a new PreparedStatement for the WHEN clause each time instead of reusing it All the regression tests ran cleanly. > Support use of the WHEN clause in CREATE TRIGGER statements > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-534 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-534 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Reporter: Kristian Waagan > Assignee: Knut Anders Hatlen > Priority: Minor > Labels: derby_triage10_11 > Attachments: derby-534-01-a-syntax.diff, derby-534-02-a-refactor.diff, parser.diff, WhenClause.html, WhenClause.html > > > Support use of the WHEN clause in CREATE TRIGGER statements.

When Tom Elliott injured his calf he had no doubts about where to go for his physical therapy. He had been to SPEAR before for his inflamed tennis elbow and was really happy with the treatment he received and his recovery then.
A passionate tennis player, Tom injured himself when he fell off a ladder doing yard work and fell into a tree. A branch went right into the back of his calf. He didn't think it was serious but the pain continued and 3 days later he went to the doctor who told him he had a torn gastrocnemius on the lateral side.
Tom knew how much physical therapy could help and knew that it was the best way to get back to where he was before the injury. "So many of the exercises you are involved in are exercises I wouldn't do on my own… for fear of… am I making it worse… am I making the tear bigger… am I pushing too much…" He knew that even an experienced athlete needs the help of a trained therapist.
He came back to SPEAR because of the extra effort everyone makes to make sure the experience is a positive one. From the receptionist to all the trainers, everyone was extremely polite and helpful, and really interested in his well being. Tom was glad he had SPEAR to go to because he knows that no one should have to go through rehabilitation alone.

More Info Below Video
Welcome to one of the most famous auto auctions in the United States! It is commonly misspelled Russo and Steel, but regardless of how you spell or misspell it, the Russo and Steele auto auction is an event that you would never want to miss. Why's that? Because Russo and Steele have the one of the largest selections of cars being auctioned off. There will be cars from all of the major groups of cars.
There will be cars from all sorts of different niches. There will be Muscle, European Sports, Hot Rods, and full customs. If you are interested in the finer types of cars, there will also be Shelbys and Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Lead Sleds. All of the cars that you can buy here are labeled "their kind of cars," making it obvious that Russo and Steele are trying to make sure that everyone goes home happy. Being a car fanatic, you will be like a kid in a candy shop. A very shiny candy shop.
If you are into just looking at the cars, there are often different types of shows, road rallies, auctions and other racing events. Most likely you are interested in seeing all of these elderly cars running and racing against each other. If you are collector looking for a good time and maybe a good deal on a classic car or car part, this is definitely one of the best places that you can go.
Don't forget to go and check out the memorabilia auction that is held by Kevin Martin. This is part of Russo and Steele that you would want to take the entire family to. Kevin will be selling all sorts of memorabilia from back in 1889 to the present. There will be certain things like a rare letter signed by Howard Hughes, a Signed photograph from the Beatles, a Rolling Stones guitar and many more items. But as you can see, all of these items have an extremely high value. All of the items sold will be sold without a reserve, meaning that they could be sold for much less than they are truly worth, making you a very lucky buyer.
The Russo and Steele auto auctions are sponsored by normal people who want to sponsor them, you don't have to be a big company to help out. If you are interested in helping out this program and sponsoring the Russo and Steele Company, contact Josephine Alcazar or George Alvillar at firstname.lastname@example.com Sponsors will be "invited guests" and will be able to showcase some of their products and services that they offer.
Make sure that you don't miss the Russo and Steele Auto Auction. Missing the Russo and Steele show would be one of the worst things that you can do in the world of cars, memorabilia, and auctions.

1. Field of Invention
The present invention relates to automatically detecting video segments of interest, and more particularly, to a method and system for automatically isolating and storing segments of interest in a video program.
2. Description of the Related Art
In general, selective documentation of team games, such as football, basketball, soccer, and baseball, is achieved by manually editing the video representations of team games. To this end, video editors are typically used. Currently, there is a wide variety of video editing devices available in the marketplace. They include a video cassette recorder (VCR) that uses magnetic tapes to store video programs and recent digital recorders that use computer magnetic hard disks, such as Replay TV™, TiVO™, and digital versatile disk (DVD). Using these devices, viewers can detect and isolate segments of interest from various sports programs and create a game summary. However, viewers must constantly monitor the sports programs in order to detect interesting events. Thus, the process of editing and sorting various sports programs is time consuming and requires a great deal of human interaction.
Therefore, there is a need for improved systems and methods that are capable of automatically detecting interesting sports events in a stream of video programs and creating a game summary.
In the preferred embodiment, the present invention is directed to an apparatus and method capable of detecting the slow motion segments from incoming stream of video shows to generate highlights of sports games and replaying them back in real time.
Accordingly, the present invention provides an apparatus for automatically detecting slow-motion highlights from a plurality of incoming video programs and includes: a storage medium for storing the incoming video programs; a recording circuitry for receiving the incoming video programs and storing them in a storage medium; a segmentation circuit for segmenting incoming video program into a plurality of segments; and, a slow motion detection circuit for detecting a slow moving object between successive frames, for determining the gravity level of the slow moving object in the incoming video programs, and for comparing the detected gravity level to a predetermined threshold value.
The present invention provides a method of automatically detecting slow-motion highlights from a plurality of incoming video programs which includes the following operation steps: segmenting incoming video programs into a plurality of segments; detecting a slow moving object between the segments of successive frames of the incoming video programs; determining the corresponding gravity level of the detected segments indicative of slow moving object; and, comparing the determined gravity level to a predetermined threshold value.
The features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
In the following description, for purposes of explanation rather than limitation, specific details are set forth such as the particular architecture, interfaces, techniques, etc., in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced in other embodiments which depart from these specific details. Moreover, for the purpose of clarity, detailed descriptions of well-known devices, circuits, and methods are omitted so as not to obscure the description of the present invention with unnecessary detail.
During a normal recording mode, the controller 20 causes the MPEG-2 encoder 14 to receive incoming television signals delivered from satellite, cable, wire, and television broadcasts or the web and converts the received TV signals to MPEG format for storage on the hard disk driver 16. During a normal playing mode, the controller 20 causes the hard disk driver 16 to stream the stored television signals to MPEG-2 decoder, which in turn transmits the decoded TV signals to be transmitted to the television set 2 via the play back section 28.
During a normal viewing mode, the controller 20 causes the incoming television signals to be demodulated and processed by the video processor 24 and transmits them to television set 2. Here, the incoming TV signals are not stored or retrieved from the hard disk driver 16. The video processor 24 converts the incoming TV signals to corresponding baseband television signals suitable for display on the television set 2. According to the principle of the present invention, the detection device 10 further provides a means for compiling selected highlights from a stream of video information representing sports games as described in greater detail below.
Typically, highlights or important portions of a sports game are shown in slow motion, thus the slow-motion portion of the programs constitutes an important clue in generating a summary of game highlights. The present invention utilizes this feature in the sports programs to isolate the corresponding slow-motion segments and independently store them in a storage medium for subsequent viewing purposes. Additionally, the present invention computes a slow-motion factor, which is used to reverse the slow motion effect of the recorded segments in the subsequent playback mode.
In step 340, each segment is analyzed by the slow motion detector 22 to determine whether a particular segment being examined is a slow or regular motion segment. This determination is achieved by computing the effective gravity (explained later in conjunction with
Thereafter, in the play mode, the controller 20 causes the playback section 28 to retrieve the highlights summary stored in the memory 26 and forward the summary to television set 2. At this time, if the viewer requests to replay the highlights summary at a normal speed via the input interface 12, the controller 20 directs the playback section 28 to retrieve the corresponding slow motion factor (SMF) stored in the memory. Then, to reverse the effect of slow motion, the playback section 28 can play the selected highlights in real time speed by sub-sampling the frames according to the SMF (i.e., playing one every (SMF)−1 frame).
Now, a detailed description of the inventive steps in determining whether a particular segment of a program is broadcast in slow motion and the degree of the slowness to play them back in real-time speed is explained hereinafter.
Under the principle of gravity, all falling objects exhibit the same vertical acceleration as the gravity of earth. As most sports programs involve a ball of known shape and size, the present invention utilizes the motion of the ball in a given program to determine whether a particular segment is a slow motion segment by comparing to the actual gravity of the earth.
Basically, a zoom is caused by a change of the camera's focal length, whereas pan is caused by the camera's rotation about an axis parallel to the image plane. Thus, they both affect the image-space coordinates detected by the object tracker 60. To this end, a camera motion compensator 62 is provided, as shown in
Referring to
All of the information including the plain coordinates, compensated coordinates, and camera angle relative to the moving objects is fed into the adjusted distance computation module 66, which combines all this information and computes the adjusted (compensated) distance values, x, for use according to the principle of the present invention. Once the angle and adjusted x value are determined, the value y can be computed as follows: y=x/Cos (A), where Cos is the standard trigonometric function, cosine.
Using the above technique, y values are computed for each pair of consecutive frames over a segment of N frames, thus obtains N−1 such values; namely yi, i=1, . . . , N−1. Using these yi values, it is possible to compute the N−2 velocity values as vi=(yi−yi−1)/t, i=2, . . . ,N−1, where t is the time interval between two frames. Thus, for a sequence recorded at 30 frames per second, t would equal 1/30 sec. Therefore, it is possible to compute the measure acceleration as follows:
Effective_Gravityi=(v i− v i−1)/t, i=3, . . . , N−1.
Furthermore, in order to improve accuracy, the measurement can be smoothed out for a given segment by taking the average as follows:
Effective_Gravity=Average(Effective_Gravityi)i=3, . . . , N−1.
In the embodiment of the present invention, any effective gravity value less than the actual gravity of Earth will indicate that the segment is actually in slow motion and therefore included in the "highlights" collection. Thus, the slow motion actor can be computed as follows:
Finally, once the SMF is obtained for the detected slow motion highlights, the present invention allows a playback of the slow motion highlights by subsampling the frames by a factor equal to the SMF in order to reverse the effect of slow motion. Hence, the detected slow motion highlights can be viewed in real time speed. Accordingly, the present invention can be used in a variety of applications, such as video browsing, home video library systems to 1) display the highlights from the real TV program and produce abstract program summaries; 2) browse through video program summaries; or 3) fast access to the highlighted segment in recorded video.
While the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made, and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the true scope of the present invention. In addition, many modifications may be made to adapt to a particular situation and the teaching of the present invention without departing from the central scope. Therefore, it is intended that the present invention not be limited to the particular embodiment disclosed as the best mode contemplated for carrying out the present invention, but that the present invention includes all embodiments falling within the scope of the appended claims.

Choice Experiments: identifying preferences or production functions?
This paper presents an alternative perspective on the process by which respondents consider options within choice experiments. Building on the "new" model of consumer demand by Stigler and Becker (1977), it suggests that the attributes within choice experiments are not valued directly, but are used to generate higher level "constructs" (i.e. improvement in the environment) which are then valued. The implication is that what are currently viewed as marginal utilities of attributes are in fact marginal utilities of an environmental outcome mixed with (subjective) marginal productivity of the attribute to achieving the environmental outcome. It is suggested the Hierarchical Information Integration methods may allow one to separately identify the utility and production functions, and identify individual heterogeneity therein

Install a smart switch that doubles as a double preset switch when held down for 1-2 secs adding a second setting to each switch, and use the same switch to tap DOTTED EIGHTH NOTES with any delay preset on your DL4. Yes, really. You can still use the DL4 tap tempo switch like normal too. Add the tap tempo and toggle sync control to this mod for only $40 extra.
Do you notice a volume drop when you engage your DL4? It's a known problem with the circuit. We simply fix that! However, we suggest getting this "whole" mod for perfect adjustment. Depending on your setup, the "simple" volume fix still may not be a perfect unity match. For $55 total, we can add a master volume control so you can fix the volume drop, and tweek exactly how much output volume you need- maybe you want a slight increase in volume when engaged. This control is not to be confused with the "Mix" knob on the DL4. The mix knob controls a blend of your dry guitar signal with the wet delay effect- this isn't volume. Our volume amount control is controlling the overall output level of the DL4 when it's engaged.
Engage the looper/recorder on-the-fly! No more bending down and turning the knob to engage the looper. Simply hit the looper switch that will be installed and start recording.
The DL4 is actually built very well. But if you've had one long enough, and use it a lot, you already know the switches will wear out where it's no longer useable. Switch Replacement consists of changing out all of the factory switches with heavy duty "soft-touch" switches that will make your life a lot easier, especially for that tap tempo switch. This mod will also work with the MM4, DM4, and FM4.
More expensive yes, and most difficult to install, but probably the most important mod of all. When a pot starts to wobble and go bad, then the whole DL4 can start going crazy- constantly changing values, settings, etc. This mod replaces all of the cheap, plastic shaft pots with much better quality metal shaft pots. New colored knobs added as well.
A very unique and fun mod. This adds a stomp switch that will engage your feedback to 100% instantly. The Mix Max 100% Toggle adds the option for the mix to also max out when the Feedback Hot Switch is engaged. For players who love creating sound effects, ambiance, swells, etc., this is the mod for you. These two mods also act different depending on what type of delay is used. Some get crazy quick, others are lighter and produce beautiful soundscaping ambiance. This sounds are also impacted by how soft or hard you play the instrument. For nice, warm sounding pads and swells, use your volume controls and play soft. For harder out of control feedback effects, use an analog delay, engage, and play hard. We can also change up this mod. Note: in the video, this mod is shown without an LED, but we DO install an LED indicating when the switch is on- this is shown in other images in the gallery.
A preset switch will allow you to select a second setting for each delay preset on the DL4. Different than the expression control, the switch will select quickly back and forth between two settings. The LED indicator for the switch will turn on with your second setting is engaged. Easy to use. Save your first setting by dialing in your sound and holding down the A, B, or C switch until it's saved. Then engaged the mod switch, make a new setting with that first delay and hold the A, B, or C switch to save again. This mod will also work with the MM4, DM4, and FM4.
Similar to the preset switch mod, the expression knob will switch between two settings, but will also mix between then. So if you want to morph from one delay setting to the next setting instead of quickly switching, this is the mod you'll want. This acts just like an external expression pedal will act, just installed inside the DL4. Also easy to use. Save your first setting by dialing in your sound and holding down the A, B, or C switch until it's saved. Then turn the knob all the way to the right, make a new setting with that first delay and hold the A, B, or C switch to save again. Then morph between the two. This mod will also work with the MM4, DM4, and FM4.
This adds a tap tempo out connection. Do you have on of our Multi Tap Tempo pedals? This mod is useful if you have other delay pedals on your board with tap tempo connections and want to link up your DL4 with. Connect to the sync out jack with our Multi Tap Tempo pedal to sync your delay pedals together.
When ordering the .8th note and dual preset mod, this toggle allows you to control which type of rhythmic signal is sent to your Tap Tempo Sync output jack. You can choose between sending the standard DL4 tap tempo signal, or sending the .8th mod signal. Once an external tap tempo pedal is connected, that pedal will tap whichever signal is being sent.
Get a custom look. Do all multi LED colors (standard mod), or replace all the standard red with a different color. This mod will also work with the MM4, DM4, and FM4.
Really make your modded pedal stand out aesthetically! Custom paint jobs start out at $50. We can paint your pedal just about any color you want. We remove all labeling plates, clean the pedal, and then go through the painting process. We can match the paint jobs with knobs, or do a cool color theme with the LEDs, knobs, and paint job.
With great sounds, lots of presets, and a cheap price, the Line 6 DL4 has become a "new classic" among guitarist. But there's more you can do with your old friend. Read to learn about the different mods available for the DL4. If you'll shoot us an email before you order, we can even do some custom paint work to it. Many of these mods will also work for the other pedals in the Stompbox Moddler series like the MM4, DM4, and FM4.
Once checkout for your mod/mods is complete you'll receive a return shipping invoice to pay based on your location with our shipping address, also on your invoice, to ship your pedal to. International rates will apply as well. Make sure to include the invoice in the box with your pedal. Domestic return shipping cost is included in the cost of the mod. Usually USPS Priority large flat rate or regional flat rates are the cheapest. We will use these shipping methods for returning. Please pack your pedal well. We're located in Lyman, SC, and you can use the USPS.com shipping calculator to get an estimate of how much your return shipping will be.
Like most, you'll probably want more than just one DL4 mod installed. We can install multiple mods all at once, but some will conflict like the Preset Switch and Expression Knob. While it's possible to have both, it would be a custom job. To add multiple mods, simply select the mod you want, add to cart, then do it again.
Save money by getting your pedal decked out all at one time. To order, contact us, providing your shipping address, and you'll be invoiced.
This package includes 1) Volume Drop Fix (+20 for extra amount control knob) 2) Multi-Colored LEDs 3) Switch Replacement 4) Pots & Knob Replacement 5) Double Preset Switch 6) Loop Engage Switch 7) Tap Tempo Sync Out Jack (would total $305 separately)
Add More, Save More
8) Add the Dotted Eighth Mod for a total of $325 and add 9) the corresponding .8th|1/4 Note Toggle Mod for the Tap Tempo Sync jack for only $25 extra ($30 regular price) 10 & 11) Add the "Feedback Hot Switch w/ Mix Max 100% Toggle" for only $40 extra ($50 regular)
(all mods 1-11 listed above)
*This price does not include extra volume amount control knob for the volume fix or a custom paint job.
Substitutions: If your pots are in perfect condition and new pots and knobs are not needed, you can substitute the "Pots & Knob Replacement" mod for the "Tap Tempo Sync Out" (when ordering the .8th mod) and the "Feedback Hot Switch w/ Mix Max 100% Toggle" for the same price.
Recommended: We highly recommend getting the full Volume Fix w/ Amount Control Knob. Most all DL4s we encounter have a volume level, or unity, problem when engaged. This full mod will allow you to adjust the perfect amount of unity when engaging your DL4, or you can even use it as a boost.
Please know that many of our mods may fix some of the issues with your DL4- because the parts we replace were the parts causing the problems. Also, many problems are fixed by simple factory resets and readjusting the main chip. However, we cannot perform miracles. Issues that are digitally related and/or power related, we do not fix. If your DL4 has issues coming in, it's possible there will be issues coming out of the mod process. We can give you our professional opinion- but it's only an opinion. If you'd like to start out with a problem free DL4, we suggest starting out by letting us replacing the main PCB first, then installing mods. This will basically make your DL4 brand new again. This route is also much cheaper than buying a new DL4.

Don't you just get annoyed by Mondays? Do you have what is very well known as the "Case of the Mondays"? or are you one of those people who just wants to kill anyone who claims to have a "case of the Mondays"? if you want to stab someone when you hear that expression let me tell you that's an actual disorder which is recognized in the big book of psychiatry, the DSM-V. That's what my doctor said, but he gave me a day off from work so it doesn't matter.
Now, seriously, if you are one of those persons who is not so much into going to work, then you should really check out the newthe office meme. Last Wednesday, a bunch of people decided that The Office Thoughts meme week should start and, ever since, they have been uploading all kind of funny stuff from the show. These memes have gone viral.
The main thing about the office is that it portrays and captures the essence of being a 9-5pm worker. So, the thoughts on the character's mind are pretty real and we all feel identified with them. So, if you are going through a Case of the Mondays, be sure to check these memes right away!

The Golden One Paperback
by Elizabeth Peters
Part of the Amelia Peabody series
At the start of this fourteenth adventure for Amelia, which continues the wartime theme begun in Lord of the Silent, it is New Year's Eve, 1917.
Risking winter storms and German torpedoes, the Emersons are heading for Egypt once again: Amelia, Emerson, their son Ramses and his wife Nefret.
Emerson is counting on a long season of excavation without distractions but this proves to be a forlorn hope.
Yet again they unearth a dead body in a looted tomb - not a mummified one though, this one is only too fresh, and it leads the clan on a search for the man who has threatened them with death if they pursue the excavations.
If that wasn't distraction enough, Nefret reveals a secret she has kept hidden: there is reason to believe that Sethos, master criminal and spy may be helping the enemy.
It's up to the Emersons to find out, and either prove his innocence or prevent him from betraying Britain's plans to take Jerusalem and win the war in the Middle East.

Review by riverwillow
I'm addicted to this series of books, Amelia Peabody and her clan are a fantastic creation. The family once again gets entangled in murderous mayhem. Ramses gets sucked back into the Great Game, this time in Gaza and the family comes too. Along the way Ramses inadvertently manages to ensnare the heart of yet another susceptible young woman - Peters description of their parting is superb. Oh yes and there is a new addition to the family as Horus, surely the most superbly bad tempered cat in literature, brings home a kitten. Superb.

Swakopmund Fistball Club (SFC) will host the first encounters of the Bank Windhoek National Fistball league this weekend.
An exciting season lies ahead in the A and B category. The first matches will start at 08:30. In the national league A 3 teams will fight for the coveted title.
Cohen will once again have two teams while SKW will only pitch one team. Fistball fans can look forward to a thrilling match between the league title holder SKW 1 and the freshly crowned opening tournament victors Cohen Fistball Club C 1. Both teams showed excellent performances at their last final clash in February which they want to build on.
Five teams consisting of DTS, SFC, SKW, and CFC (2x) will be participating in this year's national league B. This season will be a challenging one for the defending champion Cohen 3 as they had to settle with a 2nd place at the opening tournament. With the support of spiker Michael Baas SKW 2 will provide great opposition to their blue rivals.
CFC 4 will definitely want to build on last year's performance as they surprisingly managed to qualify for the final and only lost to their club colleagues CFC 3. However with strong competition, this will be tough as SFC will be reinforced by players from their team that withdrew in the A league.
