We just returned from our stay here and were very pleased. Turtle Cove is centrally located so we could get anywhere on the island quickly. The hotel was clean, had very pleasant helpful staff and was a fantastic value. The pool and garden area were great. Had a restaurant on site that also provided live entertainment two nights a week. Could easily walk to multiple restaurants around the marina for other options if you want. We walked the beach every day since access to the beach was so close...and the best snorkeling reef on the island is just on the other side of the marina. I would recommend renting a car if you plan to sight see around the island because the taxi prices are high. Well worth the price. If your diving the operators pick you up at the hotel.

The present invention relates generally to CMOS image sensors, and more particularly, to a method and circuit for canceling kTC noise in a linear image sensor.
Integrated circuit technology has revolutionized various fields including computers, control systems, telecommunications, and imaging. For example, in the imaging field, CMOS image sensors have proved to be less expensive to manufacture relative to CCD imaging devices. Further, for certain applications CMOS devices are superior in performance. For example, the signal processing logic necessary can be integrated alongside the imaging circuitry, thus allowing for a single integrated chip to form a complete stand alone imaging device.
Despite the advances of CMOS image sensor technology, certain remaining problems prevent their widespread acceptance. One such problem is "kTC" noise introduced in CMOS pixels during a reset operation. Specifically, in CMOS arrays, each pixel must be reset before the pixel starts its "integration" period. Generally, this reset step requires that each pixel have an associated transistor switched on to allow a reset voltage to reach the photodiode of the associated pixel. When the associated transistor is turned off, the voltage of the photodiode should be equal to the reset voltage. However, thermal noise (referred to as kTC noise) in the transistor channel introduces some variability in the quantity of charge injected in each pixel after each reset. Because thermal noise is truly random, voltage variations on individual pixels occurring once will not necessarily occur with the same variation a second time. The magnitude of kTC noise is related to k, the Boltzmann constant, T, the temperature in Kelvin, and C, the capacitance in the current path. The local temperature variations in each pixel give rise to this random kTC noise.
Prior art attempts to combat kTC noise focused on varying the structure of the pixel. For example, pixels using four transistors have been proposed. However, this has the disadvantage of large pixel size and difficulty to manufacture. Similarly, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,981,932 describes a pixel that performs kTC noise canceling by storing charge in a pseudo-capacitor. However, this pixel requires additional process steps to manufacture, as well as additional timing requirements to operate. Further, the pixel of the '932 patent requires an additional transistor to provide additional switching to ground or power.
Thus, it is desirable to provide a simple and easy to manufacture method or apparatus that can compensate for kTC noise.
In the drawings, like reference numerals refer to like parts throughout the various views of the non-limiting and non-exhaustive embodiments of the present invention, and wherein:
In the following description, numerous specific details are provided, such as the identification of various system components, to provide a thorough understanding of embodiments of the invention. One skilled in the art will recognize, however, that the invention can be practiced without one or more of the specific details, or with other methods, components, materials, etc. In still other instances, well-known structures, materials, or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of various embodiments of the invention.
Reference throughout this specification to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Thus, the appearance of the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
While the present invention can be applied to CMOS image sensors generally, the present invention will be described in conjunction with a "linear sensor" typically used with scanners. In many respects, as seen in
As noted above, a CMOS image sensor includes an array of pixels formed into columns and rows. Typically, each column of pixels has associated therewith a column readout circuit 15, which is the subject of the present invention. In the description below, a single pixel is described in connection with a readout circuit. It can be appreciated that multiple readout circuits would be required for the full image sensor.
Turning to
The readout circuit 103 includes three branches: a first branch for capturing the photo signal, a second branch for capturing a first black reference, and a third branch for capturing a second black reference. Specifically, the source of the pixel output transistor is connected, through row select transistor 111, to the first, second, and third branches. The use of the three branches allows for correlated double sampling, a technique useful for minimizing 1/f noise and fixed pattern noise. Note that for correlated double sampling, typically a shorting transistor is used between the two branches. However, for clarity purposes, the shorting transistor is omitted from the readout circuit shown in
The first, second, and third branches are essentially structured the same. For ease of understanding, like elements are designated with like numerals, except that the first branch for capturing the photo signal is designated with an "a", the second branch for capturing the first black reference signal is designated with a "b", and the third branch for capturing the second black reference signal is designated with a "c".
The readout circuit 103 includes a load transistor 113 of the pixel output transistor 109. The first, second, and third branches each include branch select transistors 115 a, 115 b, and 115 c. These act as switches to select the branch to which the signal output by the active pixel 101 is directed. Note that in this embodiment, the select transistors 115 a–115 c are PMOS transistors; however, it can be appreciated that NMOS transistors may also be used.
Downstream of the branch select transistors 115 a–115 c are capacitors 117 a, 117 b, and 117 c. The term downstream refers to locations in the signal path subsequent to a reference location. The capacitors 117 a–117 c have a first plate connected to a voltage VL, which may be VSS or ground. The second plate of the capacitor is connected to the drain of the select transistors 115 a–115 c. The capacitors 117 a–117 c may be poly-poly capacitors, metal-metal capacitors, MOS capacitors, or any type of conventional capacitor formed in a semiconductor process.
Additionally, the second plate of the capacitors are connected to read switches 119 a–119 c. These read switches 119 a–119 c selectively open and close to read out the various signals on the capacitors 117 a–117 c through a buffer 121. These signals are then subsequently processed to extract the signal from the pixel 101. Unlike the prior art, both a first black reference and a second black reference are used to correlate the signal from the pixel.
Specifically, turning to
After the first black reference signal is captured on capacitor 117 b, as seen in
Continuing, the select transistor 115 a is then turned on as seen in
The operation of the circuit is such that a first black reference signal is captured before pixel signal integration and a second black reference signal is captured after pixel signal integration. All of these signals are passed through buffer 121 for subsequent signal processing. In particular, the first black reference signal and the second black reference signal may be used in connection with correlated double sampling techniques to cancel the kTC noise.
While the invention is described and illustrated here in the context of a limited number of embodiments, the invention may be embodied in many forms without departing from the spirit of the essential characteristics of the invention. The illustrated and described embodiments are therefore to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive. For example, the above detailed description has been given in terms of adjusting the exposure time. However, the techniques described above apply equally to gain control. For example, instead of increasing or decreasing the amount of exposure, the amount of gain can be similarly increased or decreased. Still further, both the exposure time and gain can be increased or decreased as the need may be. Thus, the scope of the invention is indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are intended to be embraced therein.

These predictions seem to be pretty spot on, but another topic worth exploring is the overall connotation still attached to social media among the masses. Too many marketers still think of social media as a quick win on as many platforms as they can post to. When you talked about forward-focused companies that will find success, those are the people to set the example, but it's still unfortunate so many people look for the easy way out. Return comes from an investment in time, research, patience, and money.
Here is another article talking about just that in terms of a Return on Relationship. I think you'll find it interesting: http://ht.ly/knNrW

Very little information has been found concerning Emily Gresser, who apparently was an accomplished virtuoso violinist at a young age. Born in Brooklyn, New York, she received her musical education in Europe. A 1913 article in the Yiddish periodical Di Tsukunft referred to her recent successes in Germany. According to that report, she had performed as a soloist with an orchestra in Berlin under the baton of the legendary Ferruccio Busoni. The Tsukunft piece, which was devoted to a discussion of Jewish or Jewish-born violinists who were already in or soon to join the pantheon of the giants of the instrument, presented her in the company of such esteemed artists as Mischa Elman, Efram Zimbalist, Joseph Joachim, Henryk [Henri] Wieniawski, Fritz Kreisler, and the young Jascha Heifetz. Her photograph in that article suggests a woman between fifteen and twenty years old, which would indicate her birth sometime in the late 19th century. What course her life and her career took after 1913—or how or why she came to compose a work of Jewish connection—has not been established.

Spurs Reserves 3 Wimbledon Reserves 0
Steffen Iversen and Les Ferdinand made successful comebacks as Chris Hughton's reserve side deservedly beat Wimbledon on Tuesday night.
Ferdinand capped his return with a superb volley to complete the scoring in injury time.
Norwegian star Iversen has been out since October after two knee operations while Ferdinand has taken just over three weeks to return after limping off against Southampton on January 20.
The pair came on for the last 20 minutes and both looked lively in what was a comfortable win at St Albans.
Despite their late introductions pinching the spotlight all the credit for the win should go to the youngsters with wing-back Ian Hillier and Johnnie Jackson, just 18, both outstanding.
But for the occasional break Ian Walker was rarely tested in our goal and it was left to Willem Korsten, from the penalty spot, and Hillier to secure victory with a two-goal burst in a minute at the start of the second half.
Matthew Etherington caused his usual mayhem at this level and our brightest spots in a goalless first half came via the left winger. After 10 minutes he latched onto a Walker throw and ran 60 yards before squaring to Yannick Kamanan, who was swallowed up before getting a shot off.
Jackson's snapshot was well saved by Paul Heald and Hillier fired wide when well placed.
The game was won with a two-goal spell at the start of the second half.
John Piercy was upended in the area just two minutes after the break and Korsten planted the ball straight down the middle of the goal from the penalty spot.
A minute later Etherington burst down the left again and this time his centre was buried by the onrushing Hillier from close range.
The arrival of Ferdinand and Iversen lifted the game again and it didn't take long for both to test Heald from distance.
Then, in injury time, Walker's clearance found Korsten, he lobbed it to Ferdinand who controlled and volleyed home in style.
Spurs Reserves: Walker, Hillier, Gardner, Davies, Thelwell, Makumbu, Piercy (Iversen 70), Jackson, Kamanan (Ferdinand 70), Korsten, Etherington. Unused: Attwell, Toner, Ferguson.
Wimbledon Reserves: Heald, Shepherd, Byrne, Lewington, Okikilou, Leigrertwood, Morgan, Tapp, Robinson (Unal 69), McAnuff (O'Flynn 77), Jenkins. Unused: Gore, Sloma, Small.

Crafter of the year, Årets Gunnar
I received a fine award this week – I'm the crafter of the year 2016 at Stundars, the museum and craft centre where my guild Björken is active. The award is called "Årets Gunnar", "Gunnar of the Year", after the museum's founder Gunnar Rosenholm. I'm of course very proud and happy!
Three of the diplomas on a wall in my spinning room are hand printed at Stundars' printing museum. If I receive more diplomas I have to move the picture showing a part of the Bayeux tapestry… it's been with me for decades, an inspiration for a handspinner to spin fine and even threads for making art.
Left to right: Certificate of Achievement in Handspinning (Online Guild of Weavers Spinners and Dyers, UK) ; Gesällbrev, apprentice diploma (Stundars) ; Mästarbrev, master spinner diploma (Stundars) ; and the Crafter of the Year 2016 diploma.
I got flowers, and I was interviewed in the local paper and radio station. Always nice to spread the word to a world that knows next to nothing about spinning!
Will be back soon
Waiting for Wednesday
I'm waiting for Wednesday – I'll leave early in the morning, and in the afternoon I'll be in Orkney! On Saturday I'll be in Shetland. I'm not sure if I can post from there, but will post when I'm back home if not earlier.
This yarn is spun from Kainuu Grey wool and mohair from Sanski's goats that I mentioned in an earlier post. Delicate like Sanski's handspun yarns, which is a bit odd as it's spun in a mill. I love it! Light, light grey.
Autumn has come, and with it the frost. It's still sunny and quite warm every now and then. The green beans and some of the herbs have frozen, but some flowers have survived. Wonder if I should save the pelargonium. It's bright red, and there's buds.
It's almost too late for nettles, but luckily they're still young and fresh thanks to the rather cold May we've had. I love nettles! I think it's one of the most tasty vegetables we have, and for free, which isn't a bad thing at all. In the 50s my grandmother grew nettles in her town garden. People thought she was a bit odd, but nowadays they'd think she was wise. This is super food! Lots of vitamins and minerals in these. There's plenty in our back garden. I use rubber gloves for picking them. Later they will grow new smaller branches, that can also be used if the the insects haven't eaten them first. There are many who think this is a fine vegetable.
Nettles in water. I soak them in cold water for a few minutes, then I rinse.
I boil them less than one minute, just so the colour turns bright green, which tells me most of the oxygen has gone, and they will preserve well and look gorgeous in my dishes. I put them in cold water for a couple of minutes, and then I press out as much moisture I can with my hands. There are several ways of preserving nettles depending on how you're going to use them later. This works for me and I've done it for decades.
The kitchen machine takes care of the chopping.
I use small plastic bags for storage. You could also freeze them the size of ice cubes, and keep them in bigger bags. I take as much from the bag that I need for my soups, sauces, bread, pancakes etc. One little bag contains enough for 3-4 dishes in our household of two grown ups. I started with three liters of fresh nettles, and now I have six small plastic bags that I need to put in a place in the freezer where I can find them during the winter. That's the hardest thing of all!
I'll pick and preserve more nettles another day.
Oh yes, I'm well aware of the fibres in nettles! I've tried a couple of times to use our common stinging nettle in a yarn, but I don't have the patience to do it properly. There's a lot of work before you get even a few fibres from those stems. The fine cloth you can spin and weave is called "nättelduk" or "nettelduk" in Swedish, which tells that the Swedish work "nässla" is the same as the English "nettle".
This used to be my grandmother's salt bowl. She kept sea salt and a stone to crush it with in that bowl. It was in my parent's cellar for decades, until my brother found it and asked if I wanted it. Of course I wanted it! It was in bad shape, dry and dirty, but it stirred a memory: I knew I'd seen that bowl long ago.
My brother also found the stone.
I think it's from the Gulf of Bothnia. The people from my grandparents village used to go fishing Baltic Herring in the autumns, when the fish has the best quality. They then salted it in big barrels. You can see one in the right upper corner of this photo showing a fishing boat that was typical for the coast of Ostrobothnia. There's a fantastic museum in Malax: Kvarkens Båtmuseum.
I didn't do anything to improve the bowl for many years. One evening when I was feeling bored and didn't want to knit, crochet, or spin, I took linen oil and thought I'd fix the bowl. Was it thirsty! Oh my, it drank half the bottle of oil in a blink, and then I hadn't even started with the bottom. I left it to dry for a couple of weeks, and then tried bees wax and canola oil. The bowl loved it, and all of a sudden there was a shine to the wood, and you could see wonderful details that had been hidden.
I love this bowl! It sits on a small table next to my chair. I keep small things and my big note book in it. I love the note book cover just as much – my brother made it for me.
The beauty of everyday things! My caffe latte mug is from Iittala, the café au lait cup is handmade and a gift from a spinning friend.
Flu knocked me down
I have been ill, an angry winter flu knocked me down for two weeks. I'm slowly recovering, so soon I will have something to show. A good thing is that we finally have a little snow after a snowless autumn. Kasper too likes snow, but he doesn't want to be outdoors for long when it's as cold as today, -20 C (-4 F). He suffers from cold cramp in his legs and paws now when he's old.
Here he tries to warm his paw by licking it, but the only result was cramp in his hind leg. Poor little friend.
He was also a bit upset by not being able to find his loo immediately the first morning with snow. Putting his head under the snow and finding his way by sniffing solved the problem! I have to tell him about the red rag the forest company has tied to his favourite tree.

The infamous Gilbert Arenas $111 million NBA contract is nearing towards its end this month. And now, he has decided that he's making some financial cuts. The first choice seems to be his kids education.
According to TMZ, NBA's worst contract to date, with Arenas (for $111 million in six years) ends October 31st. He had signed the deal back in 2008 before his career got derailed by a few injuries and violent antics similar to his possible locker-room shootout with NBA-player-turned-felon Javaris Crittenton. The deal was later restructured to pay out for the following eight years.
With the contract now coming to a close, Arenas says that he has to start making some financial cuts. TMZ reports that one of his first financial cuts will be taking his kids out of private school. It doesn't strike as a surprise. Especially considering they are the same ones he was talking about when he yelled "f*ck my kids" when arguing with their mother Laura Govan on the phone.
TMZ reports that after the NBA contract ends, Arenas will be getting $169,895 per year in investment income. The school that his kids attend reportedly costs $91,600 per year.
Arenas sounds like he has been preparing for this day long before, though. Back in 2013 he recorded himself, acknowledging that the contract is in fact going to end one day. You can check that out in the video below.
Back in 2015, Gilbert Arenas also filed a lawsuit against his ex-fiancee, Laura Govan. He claimed she had leaked an email exchange between the two to multiple media outlets, in which she wrote "When I left you, it was because I couldn't take the STDs."
Arenas reportedly requested to be awarded more than $1 million at the start of the suit.
Arenas reportedly did not get the million dollars he wanted at the beginning of the suit, however a judge ordered Govan to pay Arenas $110,100. It was a default judgement and the payment was ordered as a result of Gilbert Arenas' "emotional distress."

"Mary set out
and traveled to the hill country in haste
to a town of Judah,
where she entered the house of Zechariah
and greeted Elizabeth.
When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting,
the infant leaped in her womb,
and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit,
cried out in a loud voice and said,
"Most blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
And how does this happen to me,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears,
the infant in my womb leaped for joy.
Blessed are you who believed
that what was spoken to you by the Lord
would be fulfilled."
And Mary said:
"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever."
Mary remained with her about three months
and then returned to her home." Luke 1:39-56
Mary went to visit Elizabeth when Elizabeth was about 6 months pregnant, and Mary stayed for about 3 months... Probably until John was born... Mary was probably Elizabeth's doula!
Okay I know I'm reaching here, and I apologize if I'm being heretical. Usually when I read this passage I'm mediating more about the Magnificat, one of my favorite prayers, and I don't pay heed to the last verse.
I probably noticed this tonight because I've decided to end the doula phase in my life, and I'm mourning a little bit. The on-call life has taken its toll on me, and I think that right now, at this stage at least, I need to be fully present for my family. I will miss being a support for families and sharing my knowledge. I will miss being present as a mother labors to give birth. And I will miss witnessing the miracle and honoring the intimate moments of two parents meeting their child for the very first time.
I won't miss the dread of a mid-night phone call, or the canceling of my plans at the last minute. And most importantly, I won't miss having to keep my phone ringer "on" and having it in my pocket or by my side 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
So after next week, when I complete my very last post-partum visit, I will shut my ringer off and hopefully learn to *not* carry my phone around with me everywhere. No longer will it need to be tethered at my side, tempting me into distractions (or near occasions of sin!). It will become an old tool that, while occasionally useful, will be mostly confined to my desk.
I've already packed away my leftover materials, stationary, handouts, and business cards. I need to close down my website and Facebook page. I want to print out the beautiful testimonials that my clients left for me on doulamatch.net, and put them in my notebook with other birth announcements and thank you notes. It makes me sad that I already know of two women who wanted me by their side next year but I've had to say no.
Being a doula has defined almost 5 years of my life. It's brought some of my highest highs and lowest lows. The absolute best part is knowing that I've helped moms achieve their goals of birthing a baby on their own terms, with knowledge and the acceptance of the events going on around them.
For now, I'm stepping away from all birth work, and focusing on my work at home. There's so much to be done, and I want to do better at it!
Despite the feelings of loss, I'm still at peace knowing I'm doing the right thing for our family. This has been a great consolation to me, as many times in life I feel unsure if I'm making the right decision. And I'd like to think that maybe I'm not done forever...maybe I will be able to do this again one day, if it's in God's plan.

My connection is Mary Ann GEDDES who married James CLUBB and settled

born in St. Fergus, Banff and later issue in Peterhead. Mary Ann died at
6 Maiden St., Peterhead in 1882 aged 70. Her parents were John GEDDES
and Mary PRICE who were both deceased by 1882.
Any bells ringing? :-)
- Hi Lyn,
My Geddes line is William Geddes 1803 married 1830 in Cruden to Margaret
William's parents were John Geddes married 1802 in Cruden to Margaret
John Geddes and Margaret Cruden also had a son John bap:1798 Mains of

It's very possible that John could have been married before or after
Margaret Cruden, I seem to have come to a dead end on both of them.

California, a street in San Francisco near where we were staying last August.
This was taken after a great lunch in a nearby restaurant with some of the WordPress guys in a Burmese restaurant – Mark Jaquith, Markr (the support guy formally known as Podz), Andy and of course Matt. Excellent food and company.
I like this: Aaah! les galettes… – almost a painting. Great art.
Nice – in Couple Dancing, Cory Parris does a great job on a first dance shot.
The sun blazes over Cork City and the River Lee on a fresh October afternoon.
This was taken on Patrick's Bridge looking out over the River Lee on a wonderfully bright October day. This bridge was opened on December 12th 1861 by the then Mayor, Sir John Arnott. I read a story that the first vehicle across the bridge was a man driving a horse and cart who rushed in front of the Mayor and the crowd. Does anyone know more about this?
Is it possible that the noise levels in the Canon 30D are worse than that of the ageing Canon 20D? According to this story it's true! I find it hard to believe because the cameras are so similar – same sensor, same digital processor and more. I wonder how the 20D compares to the new Canon 400D?
Even if you don't have any Canon equipment, the article takes a look at the RAW vs Jpeg debate too which might be less sensational but makes for a good read. (via)
One of the suspension towers of the Golden Gate Bridge looms over traffic on a beautiful August afternoon.
Driving across the bridge was wonderful because the bridge is such an iconic part of the San Francisco and it's simply enormous! Maybe next time I'll walk across it's 1.7 mile length. If you're interested in finding out more, the Wikipedia page is a mine of information!
PS. Congrats Mel, Sharon and Alex on the new member of your family!
A girl dressed in a communion dress and veil walks with her mother through the crowds on St. Patrick's Street Cork on Saturday. Dressed as she is, she looks almost lost but the crowd parted way for her and her parents.
I don't know why she was dressed like that. First Communion ceremonies aren't until next year. Is it a communion dress? Could she be a bridesmaid or flower girl at a wedding?
Two of my photos may be entered into the Irish Photographic Federation's National Shield as part of the Mallow Camera Club entry. They need fairly large prints which is a bit of a problem but of they're suitable I'll link to them in a few days. The competition will be held in Portlaoise on the 12th of November so I'll be eagerly waiting for the results! I'm not the only blogger entering. Jonathan Hill is entering too!
It's Halloween, that time of year that the souls of the dead rise up, goblins and monsters are abroad and witches fly about. I've already had my barm brack and even got the ring, but tonight is when kids go "trick or treating" looking for treats and avoiding tricks!
I made this image a few weeks ago early one morning in Currykippane Cemetery near Kerrypike. It was the first time I was in the area and I couldn't resist shooting a few images. In the background is the beautiful Lee Valley. There are a few other nice vantage points up on those hills so I'll have to go up there some other morning.
November is known as Samhain in Irish, but in Celtic tradition it's also the end of the Summer and is accompanied by a festival. In modern times this is continued by the tradition of Halloween and All Souls' Day. This and a lot more are covered on the Wikipedia page on Samhain.
It's a spooky time of the year!
Hehe. What The Duck today is brilliant, although you may not get the joke in the last frame if you haven't got a Canon DSLR. 😉
We had an interesting night – no kids called to the house but we went for a walk with Oscar down the road and bumped into several neighbours and spent almost an hour out in the cold talking to different people!
A small hut on the island of Alcatraz looks out on San Francisco. It looks well preserved and anyone in the hut would have a god view of the city and probably the surrounding coastline up to the Golden Gate Bridge.
When we parked in the garage we had to cover the car with this sheet. I dunno what the big deal is, it's only a Ferrari after all!
But seriously folks, I'm joking, Matt doesn't drive a Ferrari, yet! WordPress.com is being run like a proper business by Matt and everyone else who are scrupulous about money and doing things sensibly. We're not going to crash and burn any time soon!
Toni lent us his car on the final Sunday in San Francisco. Andy drove while Podz and I alternated between riding shotgun and sitting in the back seat. Cameras were pointed out the window at every opportunity of course. We went downtown and found parking in a garage and this car was parked next to us in a reserved spot.
Tom asks, Would You Rather Have Sex With Marilyn Monroe or Take Photographs of Her?. "I'd rather …" You'll have to read the post to find out!
Oscar ambling along on the beach at Garretstown in Co. Cork. He never liked the beach, there's just too much dirt and gravel and sand and just plain yuck, but he had a great time that evening. I don't think Shih-Tzus are the most adventurous of dogs! Compare this picture with an earlier shot before he was groomed. Quite a difference eh?
Under Irish law, dogs should be kept on a lead in public places at all times, and really should not be allowed on a beach but I made sure he did his business before we went anywhere near the sand! He's so timid he rarely left our side the whole time, and I had the lead in my pocket, just in case.
I spotted a horse in the distance and the hoof marks were visible in the sand, but I was too late to get a shot of the horse and rider this time unfortunately.
This page on Shih Tzus describes Oscar perfectly:
The Shih-Tzu is an alert and spunky little dog. Happy and hardy, endowed with loads of character. They are royally dignified, courageous and sometimes arrogant. This breed does well with polite, careful children. The gentle loyal Shih-Tzu makes friends easily and although obstinate can respond well to consistent patient training. A very alert watch dog, the Shih-Tzu likes to bark, but is usually quiet inside the house. They are stubborn and clever. Shihs can get snappish if they are surprised or peeved. Playful and lively, this affectionate little dog needs to be with people and are generally good with other pets. Some can be difficult to housebreak.

Add Progress Dialog in Android App
First of all, I will add a progress dialog in the onCreate function. The following code will initialize the dialogue by setting the ProgressDialog title, ProgressDialog message and style. Later, we will show the dialog and set its progress when user clicks on images in gridview. Here is the source code example:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); //grid view GridView gridView = (GridView) findViewById(R.id.gridView1); gridView.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this)); gridView.setOnItemClickListener(gridViewImageClickListener); //progress bar downloadProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(MainActivity.this); downloadProgressDialog.setTitle("Downloading Wallpaper"); downloadProgressDialog.setMessage("Downloading in progress..."); downloadProgressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_HORIZONTAL); downloadProgressDialog.setProgress(0); //downloadProgressDialog.setMax(20); //downloadProgressDialog.show(); }
Add Item Click Listener on GridView
In the second step, I will add an item click listener on the gridview which we created in last tutorial. Inside the listener, I will show the progress dialog and start an asynctask to download the real image.
private OnItemClickListener gridViewImageClickListener = new OnItemClickListener() { @Override public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub downloadProgressDialog.show(); new DownloadWallpaperTask().execute(imageURLArray[arg2]); } };
Download Images with AsyncTask
In the third step, I will create an AsyncTask subclass DownloadWallpaperTask, which will handle the downloading image job, and update the download progress. After the download job finishes, I will hide the download progress dialog and show the whole image in a full size in a new Activity. Please keep in mine, the class DownloadWallpaperTask is an inner class. Here is the source code of this class. If you just want to find a piece of code to download a image, you can also check Download Images by AsyncTask.
private class DownloadWallpaperTask extends AsyncTask <String, Integer, String> { @Override protected String doInBackground(String... params) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub String wallpaperURLStr = params[0]; String localPath = Integer.toString(wallpaperURLStr.hashCode()); try { URL wallpaperURL = new URL(wallpaperURLStr); URLConnection connection = wallpaperURL.openConnection(); //get file length int filesize = connection.getContentLength(); if(filesize < 0) { //comment > downloadProgressDialog.setMax(1000000); } else { downloadProgressDialog.setMax(filesize); } InputStream inputStream = new BufferedInputStream(wallpaperURL.openStream(), 10240); String appName = getResources().getString(R.string.app_name); OutputStream outputStream = openFileOutput(localPath, Context.MODE_PRIVATE); byte buffer[] = new byte[1024]; int dataSize; int loadedSize = 0; while ((dataSize = inputStream.read(buffer)) != -1) { loadedSize += dataSize; publishProgress(loadedSize); outputStream.write(buffer, 0, dataSize); } } catch (MalformedURLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IOException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } return localPath; } protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... progress) { downloadProgressDialog.setProgress(progress[0]); } protected void onPostExecute(String result) { downloadProgressDialog.hide(); //open preview activity Bundle postInfo = new Bundle(); postInfo.putString("localpath", result); if (previewPanelIntent == null) { previewPanelIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, PreviewPanel.class); } previewPanelIntent.putExtras(postInfo); startActivity(previewPanelIntent); } }
Debug Tips
Some people have problems about getting image length from server. When they are using following code to get the image size, getContentLength returns -1 or a negative value.
int filesize = connection.getContentLength();
That is because the server which hosts your images is not setting a "Content-Length" header in the http response message. That's a server problem. So in my approach, I am setting a number 1000000, which means the default file size is 1M.

After a visit is categorized as a Paid Search visit, HubSpot looks at the referring site, in particular the value passed in the "q" parameter to determine what was the search term the contact used to find your site. Let's go a bit more in depth:
- Navigate to Reports > Sources.
- Look below the bar graph, but in particular review the Paid Search information - Click on number under the Contacts column; doing so will prompt you to a page listing contacts bucketed under the Paid Search source.
- Select any contact, and once you are on the contact's profile, click on the View All Properties link located in the About card on the left-hand side.
- Search for the contact property named First Referring Site - This contact property contains the contact's referring site.
- As detailed below, within the parameters of the referring site, the "q=" parameter details the search term the contact used to find your site.
- However, please be aware that there are instances when the referring site does not provide such information.
- If the "q=" parameter isn't present in the first referring site, HubSpot will next look for the "utm_term" value in the URL to determine the keyword used. If this is not present, you will see the visit sub-categorized as Content network (Adsense or other).

"It is beautiful, looks wonderfully cuddly and cozy, is rated Easy and takes only 6 hours! How much better can it get? Throws, wraps and shawls are my favorite things and this one has me itching to get started. So nice that the different colors are used together plus using a 16mm hook means that it is chunky and warm and I like it so much that I will probably be making more than one!"
"As soon as I saw the word Intermediate I thought it would be too difficult. But I have done a test piece (which I always do when I am not sure of the pattern) and it is not at all difficult. And I have so many yarns left over from previous projects and have realized that I can make good use of them if I make the stripes a bit narrower than the pattern indicates. So here goes, wish me luck! Lol."
"I just love tie dyeing and now, having tried this project, our children think it is the best thing ever to do! Each one of them had a top they wanted to tie dye and we had such a lot of fun. A bit messy, but fun, lol! It took Granny back to the 60s and to the children it was something completely new and they just love their dyed tops. A great holiday project!"
"One of my favorite things is making jewellery. I just LOVE sterling silver and, particularly, silver wire so the Sizzix Twist and Style Tool opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me and it is one of the most used tools at my jewellery work bench. I have also begun using twisted silver wire on my range of braided leather mens bracelets and they are flying off the shelves! Have a look at this tutorial, I did and it really is great for learning how to best use the tool."
"My wonderful friend, Heather, loves retro crochet items so this awesome Granny Square Throw is going to send her right into orbit, lol! Her birthday is just a few months away so I must add it to my Things To Make list right now. Our teenage daughter, Lily, has offered to help which will make it an even more special gift because they have a very special bond. We already have a good idea of what colors she will love so are all set to get started!"
