US 8195990 B2Abstract
a plurality of transmit elements formed on a surface thereof, and
a plurality of data transmitters formed in the first chip and driving corresponding transmit elements with data signals;
a second chip juxtaposed to the first chip and having:
a plurality of receive elements formed in a surface thereof, and
a plurality of data receivers formed in the second chip receiving the data signals from corresponding receive elements, wherein each receive element is in at least partial alignment with a corresponding transmit element to form a communication link between the first chip and the second chip; and
21. The proximity communication system of claim 14, wherein adjusting the performance of the communication link comprises adjusting a granularity of a signal transmitted between the chips. Description
This application is a continuation application of, and hereby claims priority under 35 U.S.C. �120 to, pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/263,713, entitled �Misalignment Compensation for Proximity Communication,� by inventors Ronald Ho, Ashok V. Krishnamoorthy, John E. Cunningham, and Robert J. Drost, filed on 3 Nov. 2008.
Proximity communication (PxC) is a well known technology that enables communication between two integrated circuit chips, but that also relies upon face-to-face alignment of those chips, as has been explained by Drost et al. in �Proximity Communication,� IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, vol. 39, no. 9, September 2004, pp. 1529-1535. Misalignment between these two chips between which the proximity communication channel is formed may occur for a number of reasons, including but not limited to: inaccurate placement in a package or on a printed circuit board (PCB) or other carrier substrate; temperature variations leading to thermal expansion or contraction; or mechanical displacement, including stress deformation or vibration. Any misalignment between chips will reduce the effectiveness of face-to-face proximity communication, whether that communication is moderated through capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, optical coupling, or a direct conductive path.
In these cases according to an aspect of the invention, the misalignment may be accepted and proximity communication may be purposefully degraded in a controlled fashion so as to still provide a viable communication channel, only with reduced performance, such as lower bandwidth (data rate), higher latency, or higher power. This degradation is called �graceful� because it still enables use of the data channel, only with reduced operating specifications. Several methods will be described for such purposeful and graceful degradation.
A proximity communication channel may be degraded by requiring an increase in the transmit power per link. In a capacitively coupled channel, power can be increased by increasing the voltage swing at the transmitter, leading to an increased signal on the receiver, even under cases of misalignment between the transmitter and receiver. This technique can be viewed as communication on a noisy channel, where the noise on the channel is due to chip misalignment. Increasing the transmit power is analogous to �shouting louder� on the transmit side, thus increasing the signal-to-noise ratio.
In another example of longer bit periods, the driver can actively cancel parasitic capacitance. As illustrated in the electrical circuit diagram of FIG. 8, the receive pad 18 and its electrical interconnect 100 to the receiver 72 on a proximity communication channel has �useful� capacitance upwards to the transmit pad 16 of the other chip 12 and �useless� capacitance downwards to one or more metal layers 102 formed in the receive chip 14 under the receiver pad 18 and the interconnect 100. Canceling this backside capacitance may be done by driving an AC replica of the data signal to the metal layer 102. For example, a source follower on the receive chip 14 includes a MOS transistor 104 having its gate switchably connected to the interconnect 100 receiving the signal from the receive pad 18, its source switchably connected to the metal layer 102, and its drain connected to the power supply voltage Vdd. The source follower drives the metal layer 102 with a signal that is offset from the data signal on the interconnect 100 and input to the receiver by a threshold voltage of the MOS transistor 104 as long as the gate-source voltage is greater than the threshold voltage. Although the parasitic capacitance persists, it has minimum effect on the modulated signal received on the receive pad 18. This technique can increase the received signal by two to three times, but requires longer bit times due to the slow response of the source follower. Switches 108, 110 can disconnect the source follower when it is not needed so as to retain the full data rate under good alignment. This technique is complementary to canceling receiver offset with extra bit time.
A further important aspect of this inventive art can now be captured. By encoding information in the analog temporal domain, another trade off can be achieved, namely, the accuracy, vis-�-vis the number n of bits of information for a given timing window T, can be traded for the strength or alignment of the coupling elements between chips. In this manner, one may use PWM for optically coupled signals as described above, and one may communicate a constant number of symbols per second. The number of bits per symbol may degrade as the chips become misaligned.
One way to reduce bandwidth for capacitively coupled systems is to selectively �gang together� transmit pads and receive pads in neighboring locations so that two or more pads situated side-by-side carry the same data bit, rather than two different data bits. As illustrated in the circuit diagram of FIG. 11. four proximity channels include respective transmitters 70A, 70B, 70C, 70D; respective transmit pads 16A, 16B, 16C, 16D; respective receive pads 18A, 18B, 18C, 18D; and respective receivers 72A, 72B, 72C, 72D. Additionally, each channel includes on the transmit chip 14 respective transmit cutoff switches 120A, 120B, 120C, 120D between the data inputs and the respective receivers 70A, 70B, 70C, 70D. Each channel also includes on the receive chip 14 respective receive cutoff switches 122A, 122B, 122C, 122D between paired transmit pads 18A, 18B, 18C, 18D and inputs to the receivers 72A, 72B, 72C, 72D. Yet further, transmit cross-connect switches 124A, 124B, 124C can selectively tie together inputs to neighboring ones of the transmitters 70A, 70B, 70C, 70D, and receive cross-connect switches 126A, 126B, 126C selectively tie together neighboring ones of the receive pads 18A, 18B, 18C, 18D and are located before their associated receive cutoff switches 122A, 122B, 122C, 122D.

Paul welcomes defense spending debate | Fox News
Paul welcomes defense spending debate
strong>ORLANDO, Fla. — Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul says his recent spat with fellow Sen. Marco Rubio over defense spending is part of a larger debate the Republican presidential field should be eager to engage in.
"There is so much within our government that we could save money with and put to our defense without saying, 'Oh, we're just going to spend a trillion dollars we don't have by borrowing it,'" the GOP hopeful told a crowded room of Republican voters at the 2015 Sunshine Summit.
"We still have a debate in our party between the Hamiltonians and the Jeffersonians — those of us who believe in limited government, in balanced budgets, who believe that the safety of the country only comes when you spend what comes in and you don't go further into debt," said the libertarian-leaning senator, who considers himself a Jeffersonian.
"This debate goes on [and] this is the debate I think our party needs to have," he added. "We've done it in a polite fashion, but we need to have this."
Paul, who's eighth in the Washington Examiner's presidential power rankings, has kept busy hammering home his message about fiscal responsibility as it relates to defense spending in the days since the fourth Republican debate.

This vibrantly illustrated volume chronicles nearly a millennium of Islamic art and architecture in Turkey. Illustrated with some 250 attractive and well-chosen color photographs, Turkish Art and Architecture is fascinating reading for anyone with an interest in Turkey, and an essential reference for any student of Islamic art and architecture. The Anatolian peninsula, one of the oldest seats of civilization, has been ruled by a succession of great powers, including the Romans and their successors in the East, the Byzantines. Its Islamic era began in 1071, when the Seljuk Turks, nomads from Central Asia who had already taken control of Persia, defeated the Byzantine army at Manzikert and moved west, creating a new sultanate in Anatolia. The Seljuks were eventually succeeded in this region by the Ottoman Turks, who crossed the Bosphorus to conquer an exhausted Constantinople in 1453, and went on to extend their power far beyond the borders of modern Turkey, establishing an empire that endured until the early twentieth century. Ruling over a land that had always been at the crossroads of east and west, these Islamic dynasties developed a cosmopolitan art and architecture. As art historian Giovanni Curatola demonstrates in this insightful new book, they combined elements of the prestigious Persian style and memories of their nomadic past with local Mediterranean traditions, and also adopted local building materials, such as stone and wood. Curatola introduces us first to the new types of buildings introduced by the Seljuks--like the caravansary and the turbe, or mausoleum--and then to the sophisticated architectural achievements of the Ottomans, which culminated in the great domed mosques constructed by the master builder Mimar Sinan (d. 1588). He also traces the history of the decorative arts in Turkey, which included lavishly ornamented carpets, manuscripts, armor, and ceramics. Read Less

your identity. >> reporter: i'm tom sherwood. inside the district's new crime lab. i'll have the story coming up. and virginia's governor responds to a challenge for maryland's governor to face off in a push- 5:10pm ×
it's an important step forward for crime fighting in the district. a state of the art lab opened that's going to be used for crime scene investigations and for firearm analysis. >> this high-tech building is just off the national mall. tom sherwood is here to show us how it will also test for everything from the flu to terrorism. >> well, jim, in addition to doing all of that, the new building is going to be the new home for the city's morgue. from security doors using eye identification -- >> thank you, you have been identified. >> reporter: -- to water tanks for testing bullets, to walking into a morgue storage room, with a space for 200 refrigerated bodies, twice the old capacity. the new $210 million forensics headquarters, three years to construct, is a major improvement for crime and chemical analysis that has eluded the district for decades. >> the potential that this building gives to the district 5:13pm ×
of columbia to increase, improve, and expand its ability to do forensic analysis, to solve crimes, is just enormous. >> reporter: it will take several more months for the building to be fully operational. but the city no longer will have to depend upon fbi facilities in quantico and elsewhere for detailed analysis. some residents in nearby homes were initially worried that the building might pose a potential hazard if chemicals escaped or there were fires. >> when you walk by the building, you don't need to get scared of what's happening inside. it is a friendly looking building. this building has layers of safety, and layers of security also that, again, may not be visible on the street. >> the new building is energy efficient and has already won some awards for its modern design. wendy and jim? >> all righty. thank you, tom. veronica joins us now. 5:14pm ×
could be a busy night for you guys in the weather center. >> with a lot of rain. we won't have any severe weather coming our way this evening, but we are going to see the rain move in. so it's going to get a little sloppy. and sloppy especially by tomorrow morning. so plan accordingly. you might want to give yourself a little extra time for tuesday morning's rush. let's head outside and see what's going on. clouds already here. temperatures not bad. upper 60s to right around 70 degrees. tomorrow is going to be warmer. most of this week we'll see highs in the upper 70s to around 80 degrees. and you know what, so far 11 consecutive months have been above average. that's the longest stretch that we've had around here since october 1990. and '91. so again, we're talking about some more warmth coming our way. we're at 71 degrees now with a cloudy sky. humidity at 47%. but the humidity is going to be rising over the next couple of hours, as we see this big system start to make its way closer to 5:15pm ×
us. and then into our area. we've got showers on the radar right now. some scattered showers here. bigger area of rain that's down to our south and west, from elkins to charlottesville, and all that is going to be headed up and in for tomorrow morning's rush. and tomorrow afternoon, we could be even getting a little bit of thunder. so it's showers for 9:00, 10:00, 11:00 p.m., with temperatures dropping off to the low and mid-60s. the mercury won't change a whole lot getting into tomorrow morning. patchy fog, not anything like we had this morning. the rain will be helping that out. a bit of a sloppy morning rush. we could have some pockets of moderate and heavy rain around for tomorrow morning. we're at 71 degrees right now at rockville and d.c. look at the temperatures to the west of our area. the rain has been falling today, upper 50s, jackson, kentucky. 59 degrees in roanoke, virginia. it will be temperatures like 5:16pm ×
these, highs like these that we're going to have next week this time. as a bigger pattern takes place. already cloudy skies here. new york soon to get the clouds. philadelphia, too. the rain to our south and west. what will be happening as we see warmer air move in overnight, this warm front will be heading closer to us. and eventually northeast and through. we'll be staying in kind of a warm pocket for a while. look at the showers, the chance for some thunderstorms tomorrow. in fact, i think the best chance for any thunderstorm popping tomorrow will be areas east of i-95 during the afternoon. thursday, behind the front, still a few wrap-around clouds. maybe a passing shower on wednesday. most of our rain will come tomorrow. 57 to 63. again, showers likely, and a sloppy morning rush, with temperatures between 55 and 63 degrees. tomorrow afternoon, a warm, wet one. and again, there could be a little bit of thunder around the 5:17pm ×
area. most of this week, we are warm, with highs upper 70s to low 80s. sunshine back at the end of the week. we're talking about a huge pattern change with highs in the 60s. we'll take a look at that, with the extended forecast coming up. that's crazy cool for us. >> it's going to be warm, though, first. is it going to rain on the nats tonight? >> yes, there will be some showers around the area. but i don't think it will be anything heavy. >> we've got to get it done, don't we? >> yes, we do. >> we're playing. coming up on news4 at 5:00 tonight, protesters returned to the streets on the one-year anniversary of the beginning of occupy d.c. adds posted on campus with a chance for college students to make lots of money. some say what they're asking goes too far. dan hellie and chriscooley break down yesterday's dramatic win by the redskins. >> that was a white-knuckle moment. tonight at 6:00, we'll tell you about a scare in the air when some travelers' seats became unbolted during their 5:18pm ×
flight. and that's just the beginning of the troubles for 5:19pm ×
they pulled it out in dramatic fashion. >> i mean, our hearts were in our throats. in those last few seconds. dan's out there with chris to look at those -- that was an incredibly high drama game. >> guys, this is just unbelievable. because the redskins really took this game by the throat. they took an 18-point lead and then they blow the lead and have to rely on a kicker who hasn't hit a kick the entire game to come back and win this for them. joined by chris cooley, former pro bowler tight end for the redskins. i know you hate the phrase as a player, must-win. but if there's anything as a must-win game in september, i, for one, felt like this was it. what does this do to galvanize a 5:22pm ×
team? >> it's a huge sigh of relief for this franchise. they had to have a win. i felt like, and still feel like this is a team that if they want to have a chance to play into the play-offs, and have a chance to be in the postseason, they have to set themselves up. they can't lose three or four or five games early in the season, and then have to battle back. it's a very tough division. again, if they want to have a chance to play, they've got to set themselves up to win early. >> you could see the feeling in the locker room. robert griffin iii makes a half lap around the stadium, high fiving the redskins fans there. he's the one everybody was talking about after this game. he completes every pass he needed to complete. he had unbelievable numbers. he obviously got a lot of help from the offense. this final drive, when you're watching the game, are you thinking in your head, okay, they're going to do this, or were you wondering what's going to happen? >> from the short time that i spent around griff, i completely 5:23pm ×
believe he is going to do it. he's a guy that knows that he can go down the field. i think in his heart, he believes, and he has the confidence that he can take the team down the field. i think when he does that, he shows everyone around him, he shows everyone in the huddle that he's capable, that this team's capable of pulling off a win. so happy for the guys. so happy for what he did. i think exceptional job all around coming back and battling to win. >> 26 of 35 for 323 yards. you could see the raw emotion from everybody there. larry has given rg-iii a hug at the end of the game. when you look at the team, you said it from the beginning you think he has the confidence to give it done. but it gives the entire team confidence. that permeates the team, the air of confidence that rg-iii has. >> it's a young group of guys. and it's a group of guys that are in an organization that hasn't won. we've had some tough seasons. and so you have to build that confidence. you have to build the camaraderie. the guys have to come together 5:24pm ×
and say, we're going to win football games. we're not going to show up on sunday and say, hey, let's play with these guys and see what happens. this is a group of guys that has to start winning, go to the game and say, this is our game to win. >> how do you have confidence in a kicker, billy, who missed three field goals? one was from 31 yards. it was a long ways. so he misses two relatively make able field goals. and after the miss right here, the 31-yarder, mike shanahan gave him a pep talk and said, we're going to need you later. and he sends him back out there. what is going through the players' minds? >> the players have to believe in it. does billy believe he's going to make the kick. i think it really helped himself moving forward keeping a spot on this team to make that kick. kickers have a short memory. i think they talk about kickers like dbs, you have to forget about what happened last, you have to go through the emotions that you know, and you feel can 5:25pm ×
make whatever you need to make. i think he did a great job pulling it off in the end. he put him in a tough spot early. he really did. they probably wouldn't have been where they were towards the end of the game if he would have made those kicks. but probably saved his jobl. but more importantly, got the win for the team. >> got the redskins to 2-2. chris cooley will be back in about an hour or so to talk redskins. we'll also visit nationals park where the nats have the chance to seal up the division tonight. >> and then there's that team. >> i know. >> a lot going on. >> we're a happy little town. we've got a warning for college students tonight. >> reporter: a groper targeting au students right here on mass avenue. i'm pat collins live. a report coming up. an unusual challenge from maryland's governor to virginia's governor. i'm liz crenshaw. some foods look healthy, but they're really junk. 5:26pm ×
neighbors and friends are mourning the loss of a local professor hit and killed while walking his dog. a car struck 65-year-old rhett leverett. he was a much-loved history professor at marymount university. police tell us the driver who hit him had a medical emergency and lost control. with election day almost here, more and more campaign yard signs are springing up in northern virginia for both candidates. today romney volunteers said it's a visible sign of growing support for the gop. but obama supporters say what is important is the number of voters who turn out in november, not the number of signs. the nats need one more victory to clinch the division title in the national league east. it would be the first time in 31 years the franchise has done 5:30pm ×
that. first pitch, 7:05 tonight. now let's fast forward to the weather. veronica, how will they look out there? >> they're going to look a little wet. take that rain jacket heading out to the nats game this evening. a wed one. you'll need a little patience, too. it is a great one out there right now. we've got a lot of cloud cover. temperaturewise currently, we are in the mid and upper 60s throughout the area. but for first pitch at 7:05, 68 degrees, and falling to the mid-60s with a south wind at just 5 miles per hour. a few showers are on tap. we eventually fall to the upper 50s and low 60s. we'll look at how much rain we could get by the end of the storm system when it moves out tomorrow, coming up. several american university students have been attacked and groped while they walk on busy massachusetts avenue. police say four students have been inappropriately fondled just in the last week alone. pat collins is live with what 5:31pm ×
the university is doing to protect those students. >> reporter: it's happened four times in the last week. they're calling it forcible fondling. the target, au students. american university, it's located in the prestigious spring valley section of washington. but not all the students live here on campus. many live a couple blocks away in apartments along massachusetts avenue. and they use these sidewalks to get to and from school. that's the scene of these attacks. the university describes it as forcible fondling, and they say it's happened here four times in the last week. they say the suspect strikes late at night or in the dark hours of the morning. that he sneaks up behind women, gropes them, and then runs away. now, i talked to someone who knows one of the victims. >> she basically said a hooded 5:32pm ×
guy ran by her, and she didn't hear him when he was coming up and she turned around and the guy was gone. >> reporter: today au e-mailed students to alert them about these attacks. >> i normally feel really safe around here. so that's a little bit terrifying. >> something's got to be done. i mean, it's definitely uncalled for. and it's not okay. >> reporter: this advice from the university to students. walk in groups, avoid isolated and dark areas, carry your cell phone and keep it accessible. now, d.c. police, au police, stepping up patrols, trying to track this guy down. live in northwest, pat collins, news4. this week marks ten years since the beginning of the sniper attacks that paralyzed our region for days. now convicted killer lee boyd 5:33pm ×
malvo is opening up and sounding remorseful. malvo spoke to the "washington post" about his role in the attacks. he said he was a monster and a thief who stole people's lives. ten people were killed in the attacks, and three others were injured over a three-week span. malvo was serving a life sentence now without parole in a virginia prison. he's 27. he was 17 at the time. he also apologized for his actions. >> i am sorry. i am sorry. and it sounds -- there is no way to express -- there is no way to express that. i mean, what am i going to tell them? i'm sorry i murdered your only child? i'm sorry i killed your husband? i'm sorry i murdered your wife? >> malvo urged the victims' families not to let him and his actions victimize them for the rest of their lives. malvo's accomplice in the sniper attacks, john allen muhammad, 5:34pm ×
was executed in 2009. right now, occupy d.c. protesters are rallying downtown, they're back in d.c. one year after their movement started. chris gordon is live at the plaza, where protesters say their message has not changed. >> reporter: good evening, everyone. occupy d.c. is very different tonight than it was one year ago. this is the anniversary. there are no people living in tents here tonight in freedom plaza, or at mcpherson square. the park just a few blocks away. the number of occupy d.c. participants is much lower this year. and they appear to be less confrontational. but they're still vocal as he took to the streets of d.c. today. they chanted slogans bringing back memories of last year's occupy d.c. their goal, shut down k street, demonstrating against big business, banks and government. 5:35pm ×
occupy d.c. participants entered this building. there was some pushing and shoving, but no violence. they occupied pennsylvania avenue sitting down on the pavement blocking traffic, until police issued this warning. >> if you do not seize and behave, you will be arrested. this is your third and final warning. >> reporter: rather than be arrested, they moved to freedom plaza. like last year, the occupy d.c. movement represents a variety of causes. >> i think what we achieved most of all is an awareness that something is wrong in america. >> going against the criminal activities of these bankers, one of those was predatory lending. >> i'm for the 99% and part of 47%. so i need to be out here to protect my rights. >> reporter: in the afternoon they marked the u.s. chamber of commerce, on the front door 5:36pm ×
steps. they left, saying we'll be back. they walked through mcpherson square, now clean and green. a year ago, the federal park was a tent city where many of them lived for months on end. as they marched down k street, passing a bank of america, they protested the foreclosure crisis. they stopped at pepco headquarters. and now you're looking live at the occupy organizational tent here at freedom plaza. we're told that they have a concert planned here tonight. and then they're going to gather here for a march on the veterans administration a few blocks away to demand more health care benefits for the -- those who served in afghanistan, iraq and the war in vietnam. that's the latest from freedom plaza, chris gordon, news4. when we come back, a frantic 5:37pm ×
tweet jolts the twitter sphere today into action. a teenaged girl said there's someone in her house. now police say they have a witness to what they say really happened. and the d.c. council tries to clear up confusion about the to clear up confusion about the red-toe. 5:38pm ×
the middle class, who move our country forward. work hard. raise families. and keep america strong. but mitt romney's budget plan will hurt the middle class. raising taxes on the average family by up to $2000 dollars. while giving a tax break of $250,000 dollars to multi-millionaires. doesn't mitt romney understand, we can't rebuild america...by tearing down the middle class. priorities usa action is responsible for the content of this advertising. 5:40pm ×

students to sell their eggs go too 5:43pm ×
when you're watching your waistline, how closely do you compare nutrition labels? >> simply looking out for products labeled reduced fat or all natural, that's not enough. liz crenshaw is here with the reality of how much skims acons are eating and may not know it. >> gluten-free, all natural, low fat, but when you put the nutrition facts up against the real deal, are they really better for you. here's the answer. if you crave junk food but want to eat healthier, you might be drawn to reduced fat, or whole grain, or gluten-free. >> these are foods you would feed your family, that you would take to work for lunch with you. you think you're doing better throughout the day, but in reality you're doing worse. >> reporter: the consumers union, shopsmart compared common snacks, the guilty pleasure versus a so-called healthier option. 5:46pm ×
>> there's a lot of buzz ingredients like yogurt or fruit involved in sweet treats, or the classic reduced fat, reduced sodium. >> reporter: she said don't fall for the healthy pitch on the front. take a closer look at the nutritional value. >> take the time to really know what it's telling you. >> reporter: for example, shopsmart compared jif peanut butter reduced fat versus regular. they both have the same number of calories, the reduced fat had fewer grams of fat and more sugar and a lot more sodium. 220 manage in the reduced fat than 140 in the regular. >> when you take out the fat, you're taking out the flavor. so you have to add sugar and sodium. >> we can think cocoa puffs might not be the healthiest things, but special k has one called chocolaty delight. >> it's actually worse. it has more fat, more calories. and more sodium. >> reporter: feel like a coke but want to avoid all that 5:47pm ×

prince william 63 degrees. it's not going to be all that cool or chilly for tomorrow morning. speaking of rain, i'm expecting about a half to an inch of rain by the time we get to late tomorrow. here's a look at our average rainfall. so far, through september the 30th, 30 inches, just over that. last year we had over 36 inches. this year, just 23. the reason for the big difference, of course, it was a quiet season in terms of the atlantic hurricane season. so last year, remember, we had the tropical storm and rains come through. not this year. again, we're talking about showers and even the possibility of some thunder for tomorrow. around 10:00 this evening, there's a look at where the rain will be. as we go into the day tomorrow, some moderate and heavy rains for the morning rush. we'll see the rain continuing for the afternoon. i think areas mainly east and along i-95. we're in the upper 70s to 80s 5:50pm ×

McCourt apologetic to fans but defiant to MLB - Los Angeles Dodger Thoughts Blog - ESPN Los Angeles
I'll have more later on today's dueling Dodgers press conferences -- one with owner Frank McCourt in New York, the other with MLB monitor Tom Schieffer in Los Angeles. In the meantime, here are links to first-look news stories on McCourt from Tony Jackson of ESPNLosAngeles.com and myself at Variety.
McCourt suggested, however, that that investigation had a "pre-determined" outcome. ...
While apologetic with regard to some of his conduct, McCourt remained aghast that the TV deal was being held up. ...

HERE IS MY LATEST TESTIMONIAL FROM AN EBAY BUYER THIS WINTER... Hello Tony,
I received the walking cane this afternoon. It is stupendous, my hat off to you this is a really wonderful cane. This is American craftsmanship at its finest. This cane is a work of art. That I will always be proud to walk with. I will use this even after my recuperation. You out did yourself. Any if anyone should ask I will defiantly give them your email address. Thank you so much for your hard work. I will be in touch in a few weeks for a black cane.

here is another testimonial received just this last spring for a functional Betty Boop cane I crafted. . . Hi Tony, I just wanted to let you know we received the Betty Boop walking stick on Thursday and my Mom began using it that evening. The true test was her taking it to the mall with her on Friday to meet friends. She said it helped tremendously and she wasn’t nearly as sore when she came home. She loves showing it off and has been taking it with her everywhere. J All her friends want to know where she found such a cute cane. It’s quite a show-piece for her. I’m not sure how I can thank you or tell you how much it means to me that she is happy to use the walking stick and that she is in less pain after her little outings. Plus I don’t worry as much about her losing her balance and falling. And, of course, thank you for sending it out so quickly. You’re a wonderful man that is improving the quality of life for many people, not only those that use your beautiful walking sticks but for their families that care for them as well.

Spring Carousel by George Winston | 889854012823 | CD | Barnes & Noble® B&N Top 100 NY Times Bestsellers
A musical philanthropist for much of his long career, self-described "rural folk piano" enthusiast George Winston has applied his considerable skills to compositions in support of everything from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill to the world-altering events of September 11, 2001. Spring Carousel finds Winston supporting a cause that hits a little closer to home. In 2015 he underwent a successful bone marrow transplant to combat myelodysplastic syndrome, an illness that can often lead to leukemia, that he had been battling since 2012. Proceeds from the album would be donated to the City of Hope National Medical Center, a leading cancer research center based in Southern California. Not so much a song cycle as it is a broad meditation on illness and recovery, the 15-track set simmers with the easy benevolence and quiet soulfulness that has been Winston's forte since the early '80s -- by the time the listener arrives at the dulcet dual closers "Rekindling Love" and "Requited Love," it's clear that for Winston, the light at the end of the tunnel was never a train. There is the occasional flash of melancholy to be heard, with pieces like "Many Clocks" and "Carousel 2" hinting at some dark nights and unavoidable abyss staring, but for the most part, Spring Carousel is part and parcel with seasonal Winston touchstones like Winter Into Spring and Summer, and just as comforting.
