Final Score: Buffalo 5, Carolina 3
Raleigh, NC (Sports Network) - Jochen Hecht scored twice as the Buffalo Sabres used a four-goal second period to down the Carolina Hurricanes, 5-3, at RBC Center.
Tim Connolly had a goal and an assist while Toni Lydman and Tim Kennedy each lit the lamp for the Sabres, who have won three straight. Ryan Miller made 27 saves in the win.
"We play a full 60 minutes tonight and had a successful road trip," said Hecht. "We got points in four of the five games and things are looking good for us heading back home."
Buffalo, which went 3-1-1 on the five-game road trip, has a solid lock on the Northeast Division with 88 points and increased its edge over idle Montreal and Ottawa by nine points. Also, the team trails Pittsburgh by two points for the second spot in the Eastern Conference.
Eric Staal, Sergei Samsonov and Brandon Sutter each had a goal for the Hurricanes, who had won two straight coming into the game. Justin Peters allowed four goals on 14 shots before being pulled in the second period. Manny Legace, who was forced out of Saturday's overtime win due to injury, stepped in and stopped 5-of-6 shots the rest of the way.
"We had a tough time with them when they were around the net tonight," said Sutter. "It's something we gotta work on. We're still playing good hockey so we have to rebound here our next game."
Carolina is eight points behind Boston for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference with 10 games to play.
Hecht made it a 2-0 game just 1:49 into the second period and scored his second goal of the game less than three minutes later when he skated around the left side and used the wraparound from the right side.
Lydman made it 4-0 and chased Peters as his wrister from the right circle on the rush got home at the 8:45 mark.
Carolina got on the board just 12 seconds after Lydman's goal as Samsonov's wrister from the left point from a faceoff win found its way to the back of the net.
Buffalo, though, got it back at the 11:11 mark of the second when Vanek hit Kennedy behind the defense with a pass and Kennedy slipped a backhander between the pads of Legace.
Carolina caught a break to make it a 5-2 game as Miller grabbed a dump-in to the right of his net and threw it right over to the left side where Sutter stuck it through Miller's pads as he scrambled into the crease 2:07 into the third.
The Hurricanes got within two on the power play with Legace on the bench for a 6-on-4 advantage as Staal's one-timer from the right circle snuck inside the left goalpost with three minutes left.
Carolina kept Legace on the bench for the rest of the game, but was unable to get any closer.
Buffalo struck on the power play with 6:13 left in the first as Thomas Vanek blasted a shot on net from the high slot that Peters stopped, but the rebound sat at the right side where Connolly backhanded it home.
Game Notes
Buffalo improved to 25-0-0 when leading after two periods this season..Each team won twice in the season series...Derek Roy and Vanek each had two assists in the game...Carolina's Jamie McBain, who assisted on Staal's goal, has a goal and four assists over his first four NHL games.

Myanmar's democratic structure has a long path of evolution ahead of it ("Pragmatic road to reconciliation," Nov.17). This rests on building its basic democratic institutions, creating an independent judiciary, ensuring reconciliation among its vast and varied 130 ethnic communities, and creating a multi-ethnic secular state backed by an effective party cadre. Aung San Suu Kyi must also face up to the challenge of making Myanmar an all-weather ally to its regional neighbours. Let us hope that it becomes a vibrant player in the South Asian regional and security architecture.

Any quest to lose weight involves monitoring both calories in and calories out, as the key to dropping unwanted pounds is expending more calories than you consume. Yet time and time again, researchers have revealed that most people underestimate the number of calories they put in their mouth and overestimate the amount of energy they expend.

We're Getting Back In.
Hello Everyone,
Thank for hanging on with us for the past years. We haven't had a chance to update our site for a while. We're very busy working. I'm asking anyone who would be interested in volunteering to write on the site to contact us and we'll set you up. Almost every living & breathing human being will suffer a stomach or gastrointestinal issue at least once in each of their 9 lives. In order to help others, please share your experiences with stomach & GI issues. Thanks in advance and I'm looking forward to reading your post.
Stomach aches in children may lead to anxiety and depression as an adult.
Stomach aches in children may lead to anxiety and depression as an adult.
Best Foods for an Upset Stomach
A list of the best foods for an upset stomach:
Have frequent digestive problems? It's no fun trying to eat with nausea and abdominal pain. Skip food entirely when it's at its worst and stick to liquids - fruit and vegetable juice without too much acid, lactose-free meal replacement drinks, drink lots of water. Meet minimum calorie requirements without forcing myself to go over. Then when it subsides a bit, start with ripe bananas, white rice cooked soft, and other mild, easy-to-digest foods. Add in more foods slowly.

Club competitions
National team competitions
10-23, 15-19, 6-13, 11-15
Slovakia chalked up another big win in Group A of the EuroBasket Women 2015 2nd Qualification Round after making light work of safely despatching Luxembourg with a 70-42 victory.
Following up their comprehensive success against Slovenia, Maros Kovacik and his team were always on top and had little difficulty in riding to another triumph despite still being without the recently naturalised Kristi Toliver.
Central to their success was the team doing a good job of sharing the scoring load, with Dominika Baburova finishing top of the pile with 13 points, while veteran Anna Jurcenkova did the dirty work by hauling down nine rebounds.
Slovakia stormed into a 23-10 lead after the opening ten minutes and never had cause to look back from that point onwards as Luxembourg struggled to find the firepower needed to challenge their visitors.
Their tally of six points in the third quarter highlighted their problems and was a clear indicator of why despite not having the greatest shooting night, Slovakia were able to canter home to the win.
Cathy Schmit and Lynn Schreiner combined for 25 points for Luxembourg.
Maros Kovacik, Slovakia Head Coach"We had a good start in the first quarter, leading quickly by 13 points and building up this difference. After that we lost concentration and made a lot of unnecessary individual mistakes, which caused a lot of easy points for Luxembourg. But I am satisfied altogether; we lead 2-0 now, so everything is fine for us. Luxembourg did well, but it is difficult to compare these two teams. I wish them all the best and like to thank the whole team, staff and organisation for this enjoyable stay in Luxembourg."
Zuzana Zirkova, Slovakia"Our team knew how the game would be. It was hard to play zone for 40 minutes. We wanted to play fast but we didn't manage to play as fast as we would have liked. We got two points so it's ok for us."
Hermann Paar, Luxembourg Head Coach"Congratulations to our opponent. We played at the beginning with too much respect, but after that we did a rather good job, especially on defence; on offence we have to work on some details, we know that, and we will be ready for our next game on Sunday versus Slovenia."
Tessy Hetting, Luxembourg"We had a difficult start, like nearly always with the first games on this level. After that we could more or less compete in the last three quarters which we didn't lose by so many points. Our defence became better and we also hit a few three-pointers. Our defence had some problems with them being tall and on offence our problem was that we didn't get very good open shots. With them playing more physically, that was our main problem. I don't think we could have won, but at least we could have reduced the point difference."
Cathy Schmit

Jaan-e-mann (Hindi)Cast: Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Preity Zinta
Director: Shirish Kunder
Bollywood just slips to newer depths of shallowness. This multi-starrer, by Shirish Kunder, with Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar vying for Preity Zinta's attention is hackneyed in its storyline. Pray, how many films have we seen where A loves B but B loves C? Many more than there are English alphabets. This one is no different. If one is inclined to be charitable, then maybe, he was inclined to experiment a wee bit within the commercial cinema format. So, he forgot the story, forgot the dialogues, just concentrated on zany sequences. The idea was to make us laugh, gape and wonder.
But frankly, characters emerging out of the walls, qawwals in a moment of despair, and a dream in black-and-white are just a shade too much.
Sad, but this attempt goes awry not only with experimentation but also in its stereotypes.
On the one side, there is that bawdy mixture of cinema and street theatre, on the other, he panders to stars and their egos. So, he adopts a rotation policy. One close-up of Salman followed by one of Akshay.
Two shots of heroes, one of the heroine! Forget "Jaan-e-mann". Life has other joys to offer elsewhere.

Funding Needed for Vegan Gluten-Free Pasta Sauce
Flourish Foods Company is just shy of its $5,000 goal to produce creamy vegan pasta sauces.
Flourish Foods Company founder and natural foods chef Alice Cherng, together with Café Gratitude pastry chef Courtney Orsinelli, are seeking funds via kickstarter to bring their creamy vegan, gluten-free, and organic pasta sauces to the masses. The duo is just shy of their $5,000 goal, which will help them bring the sauces to LA farmers markets and independent grocery stores, as well as buy all the equipment, ingredients, and production materials needed to market the plant-based pasta-toppers. Currently Cherng and Orsinelli have created three flavors that match the depth and richness of traditional cream sauces: Roasted Garlic Alfredo, Pesto Cream, and Lemony Artichoke with Chives. Donations can be made until October 25.

Teaching journalism in the 21st century is a little like packing a wardrobe for a month-long trip into a carry-on suitcase: You keep trying to squeeze one more thing into the bulging bag while praying that the zipper won't burst.

Struggling to see the strategy, as every news organization adopts similar […] more »

Many cities have begun replacing their high-pressure sodium street lights with LEDs. While the motivation for these replacements typically focuses on cost and energy savings from improved efficiency and longer lamp lifetimes, a growing number of cities are discovering the benefits of incorporating new sensors and networked control into their new lights. Networked street lights provide an ideal platform for a range of innovative smart city applications. With both power… Listen To Replay

Of course, I also think this, but I tend to be too chicken to say it.

There are a lot of nice features on this model, e.g. auto soil sensor, 5 wash cycles including overnight and eco-wash cycles, direct feed wash system, large capacity, and others. It has everything I need in a dishwasher. The only thing I'm not sure about is the filter system it has instead of a food disposer; I hope I don't have to clean it out more than every couple of months, not that it looks difficult, I'm just lazy. I installed it myself and that was fairly easy; although I don't like the hose-type inlet water fitting on the machine which made it difficult to attach the water hose without having it leak. The user instructions that came with it don't seem to be the right ones as they don't cover all of the cycles, etc. and is different than the one that you can download on line. Not a big deal but it's odd. It seems to clean very well and is quiet; you can hardly hear the pump running. It's appears to be a good value for the price and I like it very well so far!

The best feature about this dishwasher is that it is super quiet. That is its ONLY good feature. Since the installer did not show me how to start or program the dishwasher, it took me awhile to figure it out. A manual was not left for me either. The silverware compartment is a pain to deal with. You have to remember to remove it BEFORE you unload the dishes or the food residue that is not rinsed away from the dishes on the top rack gets the silverware dirty all over again. That compartment is also inconvenient when loading the dishwasher. I will NEVER get another dishwasher that has that kind of silverware rack. I HATE IT! I have it programmed to not heat dry the dishes yet when the cycle is done the dishes are way too hot to handle to put away. The door has to be open for 10-15 minutes to allow the dishes to cool. If the hot dishes are put on top of or next to the cool ones in the cabinet, the cool one breaks, REALLY! This product was designed all WRONG! Once the cycle is started, if you need to stop it for any reason you can but it will drain and cancel the cycle. When you start it up again you must start from the beginning all over again. That is very inconvenient. The front panel is not reversible or have other colors, or even a protective plastic. Once it is started there is no way of knowing how far it is into the cycle or how much longer it has to go, you just have to wait for it to finish. It just starts, cleans, and stops. Very plain, simple, and basic. No convenient features, no innovation, style or design. I am waiting for my first couple of utility bills before I can tell if it is energy saving.

Clean Dishes!
By bmmafy
from Pittsburgh, PA, United States
Comments about Whirlpool White Built-In Dishwasher:
We bought this dishwasher to replace one that had a couple issues. Love the extra space on the lower rack, makes loading larger dishes so easy. The 4 hour delay is a great feature, although not entirely necessary. I used to load the dishwasher and have it ready to run but would wait until going to bed to start it because of the noise. Of course many a night I would forget to do that. This dishwasher has a delay to start, but because it is so quiet, I have found that there is no need to wait until bedtime to run it. I can start it and sit in the next or even the same room and barely know its running.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I've never been a dishwasher-user until now!
By Dcybele
from San Diego, CA, United States
Moving into our house 10 years ago, the previous owners had left their dishwasher and I didn't use it that much because I had always just washed the dishes by hand. This past year we re-did the kitchen and replaced the old dishwasher with this one and LOVE IT. It's incredibly easy to use and does such a great job! I love the different settings for heavy load, or eco load or overnight. The utensil holder in the door is really handy, and everything gets so CLEAN!
Works much better than my previous Frigidaire Gallery Series Model
By Jan H
from North Port, FL, United States
I bought your dishwasher a few months ago to replace mine that was not working properly even though it was not very old and with only two of us in the house and I clean dishes off well prior to putting them in dishwasher, my husband and I bought your "whirlpool wonder" and it is awesome, cleans the dishes much better in less than half the time, no spots, no noice. I love it!!!!
Washes and dries odd
By DMJJG
from Indiana, United States
When we built the house the builder choose this dishwasher. Since I started using it I do not feel that it washes the dishes correctly and does not dry them completely like my old whirlpool in Texas. I do not like having the silverware basket attach to door. Not a lot of room for the silverware so they do not always come out clean. I usually love all my whirlpool appliances and this is first time I'm saying anything negative
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Does a good job for price
By 2busy mom
from Alliance, OH, United States
Very reasonably priced dishwasher does a good job cleaning dishes but use cascade ultra packs for best results, holds a lot of dishes, very quiet while running
Exceptional value!!!
By Redbirds
from St. Louis, MO, United States
Had a 3 year old dishwasher from another mfg that quit working, put new parts in and it still didn't work. Decided that was enough, bought this model and have been extremely satisfied. Like the looks and racks are better than our previous machine. Very quite and does a great job of cleaning dishes. Also like the sanitize setting. Would highly recommend this machine to anyone. What you get for the price it's a tremendous value

Cleans great, only one issue.
By MrsWeston
from Northern California
Dishwasher holds a lot of dishes, and is set up for any order/arrangement you prefer. It washes at a normal volume. Only issue I have had is that with the silverware holder. It is located on the door, so when the soap dispenser drops the soap tab it can fall into the silverware basket. When that happens it does not dissolve, thus does not clean the dishes. To avoid this problem I don't use the holders directly under the soap, but rather keep that side closed. (it is divided into 3 sections with 3 lids, so 2/3 is still usable) This allows the soap pack to slide down into the water. Now dishes are always clean without fail.

New Year, New work
*Please allow me to do double duty with this post - and count it as my "Focus on Life" post. I have been in the studio all week finishing new work! Also - there are additional images tagged on Instagram. Thanks!*
As January draws to a close, I wanted to share with you the latest. I have been in a flurry (pun intended) of activity in the studio, preparing for a new show. Betsy Mortenson and I are showing at the Palette and the Page in Elkton, Md. The opening will be Friday February 1st, and the show will be up for the month. Betsy and I have done collaborative work in the past, sharing ideas, and sparking creative thoughts one off the other. This year we discussed animals/totems. While the work isn't paired as directly as Oceana/Detritus of Dreams from last year, we are happy with what is happening...
I am particularly excited to show collages and mixed media necklaces together. Many venues don't allow for such diverse offerings in one show. Let me give you a sample...
As of yet untitled Raven themed collage. Inspired by Celtic goddesses - The Morrigan...
"Thought and Memory" - labradorite, polymer, copper, silver, silk. Inspired by Odin's ravens - Huginn & Muninn ( Thought and Memory).
"Raven's Token" - polymer, copper, hematite, lapis, pearls, onyx, blue goldstone.
Untitled snake collage. Inspired by the Creatan snake goddess/priestess, the Delphic Oracle, and Eve.
"Athena's Owl" - brass, polymer, enamel on copper, gems.
"Lunar Hare" - polymer, enamel on copper, stamped copper, labradorite, pearls, iolite, hematite, blue goldstone.
Not every necklace has a collage partner, and I will be exhibiting ceramic shrines as well. Should be a truly mixed media showing. PLease do stop by if you are in the area. I will post pictures of the opening at a later date!
Its the Journey... Focus on Life #2
"Not all those who wander are lost."
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
This year is a journey, an ongoing adventure, a process. A return to health after surgery, a return to my creative voice. I had a productive year last year all things considered, but felt that feeling of being behind, of trying to catch up... all year. Doing enough to get by, to stay afloat, to make do. This year will be an exploration of the new, new inspirations, new techniques, new territory. But I believe we are the sum of our journey, past experiences impacting the self profoundly. So here are a few photos I have taken on places that have had a profound impact on me... (All pix are untouched, unedited. Hover over picture for information.)
"It is good to have an end to journey toward, but it is the journey that matters in the end."
Ursula K. Le Guin
"The only journey is the one within."
Rainer Maria Rilke
"Not I, nor anyone else can travel that road for you.
You must travel it by yourself.
It is not far. It is within reach.
Perhaps you have been on it since you were born, and did not know.
Perhaps it is everywhere - on water and land."
Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
Please visit my fellow participants at Sally Russick's "Focus on Life"photo challenge/week 2.
" Success is not a place at which one arrives but rather the spirit with which one undertakes and continues the journey." Alex Noble.
Musings... on the Muse?
I took myself on an Art date yesterday to the Delaware Art Museum. Its a small museum, but has a stellar Pre-Raphaelite collection. I honestly can't remember how it happened as a teenager. Did I go to the museum and fall in love with the PRB? Or did I fall in love with the PRB and then visit them at DAM? The latter I think. I think the Lady of Shallot started it all, but that another story.
Here I am with Rossetti's "Veronica Veronese" - one I have long adored. This year I am participating in Sally Russick/Studio Sublime's "Focusing on life - 52 photos" challenge. Week one was to do a self portrait... I wish I had long flowing Pre-Raphaelite locks...
Howard Pyle - The Mermaid 1910
detail: "Two Women on a sofa" Albert Moore
I loved the stamps! And of course, I never go anywhere without my journal.
detail - "Veronica Veronese" 1872. by Dante Gabrielle Rossetti.
It was a lovely afternoon, calm, serene. For the most part I had the galleries to myself. It was a nice visit with art that has moved me, spoken to me... for over 20 years. Returning to the source of some of my earliest inspirations. And it was a diverse array of inspiration - the galleries have accents of William Morris wallpapers, there are Arts and Crafts style pottery and silver on exhibit, Evelyn de Morgan tiles, and jewelry. The time spent was rejuvenating... if a bit nostalgic, longing for a time I feel called to, yet born too late.
Perhaps today I will wear velvet...
New Year. New Table.
Happy New Year. Happy New Years week!
This week is the week I get things ready. Ready to return to work, ready to start the new year, ready, fresh, optimistic... I have a tendency to clean and reorganize which I find cathartic. Cleaning the clutter both inside and out allows for creative growth and inspiration.
Here is the before:
My old and dear IKEA trestle/drafting table. I have had it for.....20 years? But its a board on 2 sawhorses basically. Rickety isnt a strong enough word... I loved that it was so deep and I could have treasures artfully stored within reach. But it wasnt working anymore...
The process:
The top left pix is the table that is leaving. The other pix show the general chaos, every surface covered...
The results:
The shallower workbench (thank you Harbor Freight) opens the room up quite a bit. Many thanks to the namelass Grandpa who handed me a 20% off coupon as I was debating the table in the store! The table is rock solid - and was a bear to put together. But my husband was patient... and I love it. Drawers for tools, no carts to slide in and out from underneath. Almost everything in one spot. (Micro torch, enamel tripod etc. are on a smaller tabel across the room, on deck until needed. ) The beloved IKEA table is to the left for collage, journaling, resin etc.
Many people start the New Year with an introsective post about goals, desires... and a word for the year. I am thinking on these things. I am not in a hurry. A year ago tomorrow I had major surgery and I am thrilled to be NOT there this year. Words I am pondering: journey, health, strength. This New Years Week I always reflect on my 2012 goals and write new 2013 goals as per the sage advice of Alyson Stansfield aka Art Biz Coach. I set up my Year-at-a-glance calendar with shows and deadlines. I clear off the bulletin boards....
This year I am looking forward to Kerry Bogert's "Aspire to Wire" class in January; my Coast 2 Coast adventures with Cooky Schock and new mixed media work for shows with my art partner Betsy Mortenson.
The year is dawning brightly!

Today - New Year's Eve - has us standing on the cusp of a new year, a new journey. For myself I can say that 2012 was full of challenges - some fruitful and some very taxing. I will be thrilled to begin a fresh start... ( To read more about labyrinths, here is my original post. )
And those thoughts of the journey were in my head as I was designing a piece to incorporate my ceramic labyrinths, this month's Component of the Month over at Art Jewelry Elements. Here is what I came up with...
My "Journey" necklace - polymer, copper, ceramic labyrinth cabochon, aventurine, kyanite.
(The text is in Welsh - the words reading journey, health, strength. These speak to the challenges I faced in 2012, and the hope for the new year as well.)
I wanted a halo of copper to frame the labyrinth, as I love the celadon glaze paired with copper's warmth. A staple is embedded (hidden) in the polymer, and that secures the copper piece. The cab is set with tabs, and a dot of glue as a safeguard. This style is a new configuration I am experimenting with, and the tabs are a bit short... I did work on two others. Thoughts?
Thanks to all who participated this month! Joining the Art Jewelry Elements team has been one of the shining moments of 2012! I look forward to a bright future working with these wonderful women. But for today, please join me in "hopping" to everyone's blogs! There will be diversity and creativity abound - I can promise that...
And a most Happy New Year!
Just a quick note to announce the winner of the snowflake earrings! Lucky #8 is Saraccino!
(I asked Random.org, but asking the 8 Ball is a fun flashback! The image above is linked to a virtual Magic 8 ball, btw!)
I will send the snowflakes to you! Just email me with your address!
On a different note - thinking of snowflakes... I saw this over coffee this morning: Snowflakes for Sandy Hook.
What a lovely idea, to cut snowflakes and send them to show our love and support to the community. Now where are my scissors?
Spirit of the season...
My hearts and prayers go out to all those affected by the tragedy in Connecticut. And at this time of year, let us remember the season is one of love, family, and friendship. Hold your loved ones close, and remember to breathe...
It seems like ages ago that Sally of The Studio Sublime sent out a call for participants - the 2nd Annual Ornament Swap. I worked on mine and sent it away before Thanksgiving - that also seems like so much time has passed... ( My original partner was unable to participate - so I will be sharing what I made. Sally adopted me as her second partner, and I will be sending her something along these lines in the very near future. Sorry for any confusion. )
My idea started with a tiny vial of snow, of ice, of crystalized winter. I prefer to do seasonal motifs, as everyone's beliefs are personal and varied... I set up the polymer oven - as I have been doing more and more of late. Polymer is versatile and immediate. Earthenware and stoneware have such a long process time: dry, fire, glaze, fire... For something like this polymer suits the bill nicely.
The swap brief said to include an artist bead. Although I am creating the entire piece, I wanted to be true to the challenge, and created these snowflake charms. You will see them again...The bird and tree are stamped and hand painted onto ivory polymer. Here it is all together:
And my partner/friend? So sweet! Sent me this ...I may have to keep this up in the studio all winter!
Ooh! I love the flame patina on the copper, the SueBead with silver, the accents of olive and aqua! Its so lovely...
So - those extra snowflake charms... They ended up here:
Two pairs were already sent on their way to lucky winners of another challenge. I think I will save one pair for my MiL... So that leaves YOU dear reader. If you want to be entered into the give away - mention that in your commment! ( And it would be so easy if you were willing to leave your email as well...) I will pick a winner Monday afternoon!
So - thank you all for celebrating and hopping with me. Here are my friends and fellow swap partners. Happy Holidays!
Happy Krampusnacht!
Be wary if you are out tonight. Should you see a devilish dapper beast abroad - you would be well aware if you met Krampus on Krampusnacht! Could it be the devilsih appearrance, cloven hooves and horns? The lascivious grin? The bundle of switches or the basket on his back - from which muffled cries of kidnapped naughty children can be heard? What gave it away?
Krampus travels abroad this night - searching out naughty children. He might switch them, rattle his chains, scare them witless, or stuff them in his basket to take home to torment. But he usually returns them on the morrow - and they are most often never so naughty again! Krampus is the companion of St Nikolas - who's feast day is celebrated tomorrow. This is the St Nicholas ( aka Sinterklaas) who leaves delectable treats inside your wooden shoes left by the fire; oranges, chocolate, peppermints...
But as scary as some images of Krampus are - I find the cheeky Victorian era postcards the best! Naughty takes on a whole new meaning...
While Santa Claus expanded shop and sold products in mid-1800s America, the holiday card craze exploded in Europe.In Austria and other parts of Europe, countless season's greeting cards featured Krampus, often emblazoned with the phrase "Grüß Vom Krampus" (Greetings from Krampus). While the lurid images are suffused with a modern sense of the comic and the surreal, they still resonant with mythic power and primordial horror. And with Krampus representing the naughty side of the season, the sexy subtext is hard to ignore in these often very cheeky cards. A century later, the brilliance of these magnificent works of pop art is now gaining global recognition. (Krampus.com)
So however you decide to celebrate Krampusnacht - be you naughty or nice... Enjoy!
And please check out:
my friend Grace wrote a great post on her blog Domythic Bliss!
Feeling festive! The November AJE component reveal!
Its hard to believe we are on the cusp of December. I just posted the Art Jewelry Elements December Component of the Month - my turn next, and its hard to think about that reveal being on New Year's Day!!! But I digress, and get ahead of myself...
For the current month of November, filled with fall leaves, and roasting delicacies... we have this harbinger of the season to come... a bronze clay snowflake from member Lesley Watt in the UK.
I immediately wanted to make it spin, to wear it on a long necklace over a tunic sweater... but the actual size was larger than I expected. I think my design is similar to what I had imagined, but as I started creating a new idea formed... I was working in polymer as time was limited, so earthenware clay was out. No time to make it, dry it, fire it, glaze it... you get the point. I wanted to frame it with an ornate, even Victorian type pattern...
... but when I put the polymer and the flake together, I needed a visual rest to focus the eye on the snowflake. I used leather scraps in a deep teal, wrong side up, and the color picked up accents in the polymer very well. The back is dealt with as well, since both sides of an ornament are on display:
Te leather and polymer "snowflake" button also camoflauge the wires where the front bead is attached.
I had been reading and re-reading some seasonal folklore on the plants holly, ivy, and mistletoe for my AJE Holiday Open House posts. It was so much fun to create polymer leaves and bead berries. I even have extra - perhaps a sprig for my lapel? The snowflake theme had me feeling very festive, and I made a few additional polymer snowflakes. I think a give away is in order!
Winners will be randomly selected - 2 winners - from comments here and on my Facebook page (Please leave an email in your comment so I am sure to find you if you win!) Let me surprise you with a pair!
Happy Holidays! I am starting to think about decorating the house....
But wait! There is more... My team members offerings:
OH! Dont forget! This is the last day to enter for a free Labyrinth Component of the Month! ANd I have 5 to give away! The post is here: December CoM at AJE.
So many things...
Happy Thanksgiving.
I have so much to be thankful for... my husband, family, my work, my friends.
I travelled yesterday without any stress or mishaps. I am visiting my parents and my sisters, and my little nephew. While I miss my husband and his family - I am so thankful to be spending time with my far away sisters! There are delicious smells wafting up the stairs, and I think another cup of coffee is calling my name...
I hope you have a wonderful day with you and yours!
I am also thankful of my online community of friends and family. I recently joined Art Jewelry Elements and am thrilled to be working with such a diverse and talented group of women. We are hosting a Holiday Open House tomorrow! Blog posts every half hour or so, recipes, articles, sales, folklore, and beads... of course! Whether you are shopping Black Friday in the stores or staying at home - stop by and visit with us. Many of the sales will run all weekend. I know I will be adding items to my Etsy store throughout the weekend, and especially on Cyber Monday! Thank you for your interest and support! Until later...

This application is a continuation of PCT/IB02/04534 Oct. 28, 2002.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to sigma-delta modulation.
2. Description of the Related Art
A Sigma-Delta-Modulator (SDM) transforms a bandlimited input signal into a digital output signal. The input signal modulates the output pulse density.
The clock frequency fa of the SDM 10 should be much higher than the highest frequency of the input signal Ue. To get a sufficiently high signal-to-noise-ratio from the digital output of a CD-player (16 bit/44.1 kHz) oversampling by a factor of at least 32 is generally necessary. For a digital SDM, the input signal should be supplied with this high data rate. This may be achieved by using a digital interpolation filter.
In the simplest case, the loop filter 14 may be implemented as an integrator.
The loop filter 14 determines the resolution (S/N-ratio) of the SDM 10. By using a loop filter 14 of higher order, a better S/N-ratio can be achieved, but stability problems may arise.
The threshold of the quantizer 16 is normally zero. The output signal Ua of the quantizer 16 is +1, if the input signal to the quantizer 16 Uk>0 and −1, if Uk<0. The quantizer 16 changes its output with each new clock cycle.
As an example, an analog SDM with an input signal of zero and a first order loop filter operates as follows. When starting, the SDM 10 output is +1. The loop back to the input provides a new input to the loop filter 14 of −1 (input signal (0)−output signal (+1)=−1). The output of the loop filter 14 Uk slowly decreases to the negative supply rail. Therefore, the next clock cycle sets the quantizer 16 output to −1. This gives a new input to the loop filter 14 of +1 (input (0)−output (−1)=+1). Uk now drifts to positive values. The output of the SDM 10 now is a random stream of bits (+1 and −1).
To examine the SDM 10 in the frequency domain, it advantageous to substitute the quantizer 16 with an adder 18, a noise source N(z), and a quantizing amplifier 20 with gain gQ. From
There are three possible implementations of a SDM 10, an analog SDM, a digital SDM, and an SDM with a switched capacitor filter (SC-filter). Different applications require different implementations. For example, for an A/D-converter, either the analog SDM or the SC-SDM would be appropriate. For a D/A-converter, the digital SDM is the best choice.
Conventional SDMs are well-known for their insensitivity to analog imperfections, and therefore they are appropriate for a large number of applications. Their usefulness has led to the adoption of the Direct Stream Digital, or DSD, format (the single bit output of an SDM) as the data format for Super Audio CD (SACD). It is believed that the data stream on the SACD can be derived from the A/D conversion step with minimal additional signal processing, thus leading to the highest quality possible. However, conventional SDMs themselves produces signal artifacts, which are due to the non-linear character of the quantizer 16 in the SDM 10. These effects are shown in
An object of the invention is to provide advantageous sigma-delta modulation.
To this end, the present invention provides a sigma-delta modulating device and a method as defined in the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
According to a first aspect of the invention, the sigma-delta modulation comprises feeding an input signal to a first SDM, subtracting the output of the first SDM from the input signal, filtering the output of the subtracting to obtain a filtered signal, delaying the input signal, adding the filtered signal to the delayed signal, feeding the output of the adder to a second SDM and providing the output of the second SDM. The first SDM in combination with the subtracting and filtering delivers a correction signal which, by adding it to the input signal, reduces the distortion in the second SDM, which second SDM performs in fact the sigma-delta modulation of the device.
In a further exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the first and second SDMs are identical SDMs. Identical SDMs are desirable in practical embodiments in order to achieve better results.
In a further exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the first SDM includes a filter in parallel to reduce phase shift errors.
Advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the detailed description provided hereafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the present invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given below and the accompanying drawings, which are given for purposes of illustration only, and thus do not limit the invention.
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a sigma-delta modulating device wherein non-linearities are reduced. The embodiments are based on the following insight:
If a SDM is modelled as a non-linear element, with the following input-output (x→y) characteristic:
An exemplary sigma-delta modulating device 100, which accomplishes this model in the digital domain, is shown in FIG. 9. The sigma-delta modulating device 100 includes a first conventional SDM 102, a filter 104, a delay 106, and a second conventional SDM 108.
The input signal is passed through the SDM 102, after which the output signal of this SDM is subtracted from the input signal x. This results in the signal v. It is noted that x+v has the characteristics of the signal V′ in Eq. (5). However, as the output signal of the SDM 102 also contains a high amount of high frequency (HF) noise, which in itself is uncorrelated with the input signal x, the filter 104 is provided to remove most of the HF power. The input signal x, after correction for the delay by filter 104 by delay 106, is also added to the output F(v) of the filter 104 and fed into a second SDM 108, which has the same structure as SDM 102. Delay 106 may be implemented as a sequence of flip-flops.
An exemplary output of the sigma-delta modulating device 100 is illustrated in
It is noted that the sigma-delta modulating device 100 of
It is further noted that although the sigma-delta modulating device 100 of
In the exemplary embodiment of
It is further noted that the model of Eq. (4) is exemplary and another model, known to one of ordinary skill in the art could also be used. It is further noted that the processing described above is particular useful in the processing of DSD.
It is further noted that features of the present invention are usable with many types of SDMs, including analog, digital, SC-filter, dithered, undithered, low order, high order, single-bit, multi-bit or any combination of these features. It is further noted that non-linearity is more likely to be a larger problem with single-bit SDMs.
The sigma-delta modulating device according to embodiments of the invention may be included in a signal processing apparatus. Such an apparatus may be (part of) SACD equipment, e.g. a player. The apparatus may further be a DSD-AD converter, etc.
It should be noted that the above-mentioned embodiments illustrate rather than limit the invention, and that those skilled in the art will be able to design many alternative embodiments without departing from the scope of the appended claims. In the claims, any reference signs placed between parentheses shall not be construed as limiting the claim. The word �comprising� does not exclude the presence of other elements or steps than those listed in a claim. The invention can be implemented by means of hardware comprising several distinct elements, and by means of a suitably programmed computer. In a device claim enumerating several means, several of these means can be embodied by one and the same item of hardware. The mere fact that certain measures are recited in mutually different dependent claims does not indicate that a combination of these measures cannot be used to advantage.

Why aren't they arresting the thieves of wall street? They have ruined millions of lives and stolen trillions of dollars.
Iceland's economy tanked before ours, brought on by the same deregulation and shoddy untrustworthy banking practices that would bring us down soon after. Iceland's economy is now booming. The reason? They punished the bankers and bailed out the taxpayers.
Of all the reasons the Justice Department has given us to loathe them, the fact that no one has been indicted, let alone prosecuted, is the most important failure of all.
And, I believe, refused to pay back what was owed to other countries. At least that's what I read in the press.
The economy is fine. The monetary system by which economic exchange of labor is accomplished is broken. When your government raises your cost of living by $1500 per year to fund giving you an extra $900 per year as an welfare entitlement for your cost of living, you are being lied to and stolen from while having nothing to steal except your trust in the government and your faith in the monetary system.
my favorite cartoon in a very long time
It's because of "The Golden Rule…I.E. Whoever has the Gold Makes the Rules!"I wonder how many Bankers bribed various Police Chiefs around the country to break up the "Occupy" demonstrations, even though most of then were peaceful?
great cartoon
As through this world I ramble
I see lots of funny men
Some will rob you with a six-gun
Some with a fountain pen

wealth envy, class warfare, no real facts just victims, yep, this is a liberal fantasy strip. Obama will be pleased with his media mind numb Minoans.
poignant………………….not! Bors-Sorenson-Rall worshipers, crawl out of your parents' basements to love this tripe. Make sure you're wearing something Euro-trashy, and by all means, don't bathe.
The US economy was greatly burdened by old laws put into place by that Socialist FDR, laws that put a Glass ceiling on what bankers could earn. Fortunately, Bill Clinton pushed through the repeal of those laws, and allowed the economy to flourish, just as it did in '29 before those laws were enacted.
Clinton, Bush, Jr, and Obama agree that laws limiting how much bankers can pay themselves are terrible, and they know much more than any of the people commenting here. It is vital that bankers be able to foreclose without squandering their bonuses on silly paperwork that is on the books, but which Bush, Jr and Obama know must never be enforced, lest it wreck our recovery. And when Clinton, Bush, Jr and Obama are in complete agreement with St Hoover, you know they must be right.
Iceland borrowed in krona, and they paid back in krona. (Of course, they did this by printing krona, so those repayments were worth much less than what they'd borrowed, but it was still legal and aboveboard.)
And, as I Play One on TV said, Iceland bankers missed their bonuses, when the first and foremost duty of any government is to guarantee the bonuses of the bankers who paid their baksheesh (sorry, Lehman, you didn't pay enough).
When a poor man robs a rich man while wearing a mask, that's theft. When a rich man robs a poor man while wearing a suit, that's capitalism.
Maybe it's time for us to "stand our ground"?
You conservatives are way, way off base on this one. A lot of it happened because the clients were lied to about the loans, and assured that they were earning enough money to buy the house. In any real-estate loan transaction, you've got a loaner who has done thousands of loans and knows what's reasonable, and a client who usually hasn't done it before and trusts the professional. Blaming the client for not knowing that it was an unethical loan is like blaming the guy who buys a car with a bad water pump. "GM is innocent! He should have checked the water pump before he bought the car!" No, we have a right to expect cars that work, and that loan payments are presented truthfully. And if that isn't happening, that's where government is essential to police the business, because business has proven incontestably that it can't.
Too bad this is only fantasy.

GREEN BAY, WI - DECEMBER 7: Donald Driver #80 of the Green Bay Packers runs for yards after the catch against the Baltimore Ravens at Lambeau Field on December 7, 2009 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. (Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images)
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Donald Driver made an appearance on 95.7 the Game in San Francisco (via SportsRadioInterviews.com) and was asked why he decided to retire now. "Today is the day I officially said I'm going to retire, but on Feb. 6, in front of our fans in Green Bay, that's where I want to do it. I'm going to open up my retirement to the fans and give them an opportunity to show my love and respect for them. It's been a blessing and great career for me, but I owe it to the fans not to wear any other color." There was a report that the Vikings were interested in Driver, but I think he might the right move to retire now. I can't imagine him wearing another team's uniform.
