1. Field of the Invention
The present invention generally relates to an image processing apparatus for medical diagnosis and, more particularly, to an apparatus for correcting defects in images, or for enhancing specific image portions by spatial shift variant filtering.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Many image processing techniques have been proposed in the medical-electronic field in, for instance, U.S. Pat. No. 4,334,244 to Chan et al. and U.K. Patent Application GB 2020945A to Anthony et al.
When considering the image processing technique until a single image is obtained in the camera system for displaying the image, filtering is executed in order to correct for deterioration of image quality of the resultant image due to distortions and blurring caused by the optical system and the camera imaging system. Further, such filtering may be also intentionally executed on the basis of the personal sense so as to compensate for such a drawback as much as possible that the image information to be enhanced cannot be sufficiently perceived by the human sense of sight.
When considering picture elements (pixels) constructing a single image, this image has a great amount of information. Different resolution often simultaneously exists in the same image, for example, in the peripheral and central portions of the image. That is to say, the imaged portions of an object under medical examination on a single image have different resolution from each other.
Further, there is also a case where the imaging system has the different frequency characteristics in the peripheral and central portions of the imager. Particularly, such a problem occurs in the medical examination television apparatus or the like. Namely, describing in detail, in the case of using, e.g., a television camera, in the peripheral portion of the photosensitive layer of the pickup tube, image distortions occur at a higher ratio than that in the central portion of this photosensitive layer. It is known that this phenomenon is one of the inherent drawbacks which are caused when an electron beam scans on the photosensitive layer. The pincushion distortion is the typical one of those distortions. In addition, there is also such a problem that the distortion which is caused due to the image intensifier tube is also superimposed on the distortions.
As the conventional effective means for eliminating the above drawbacks in the image processing techniques, the following method has been used. Namely, an original image, i.e., non-processed image obtained from the system (hereinafter, this image is simply referred to as an original image) is subjected to spatial filtering to improve the spatial frequency characteristics of the image itself and thereby to improve the information which is obtained from the original image. However, the image cannot be satisfactorily corrected merely by executing the spatial shift invariant-filtering depending on the features of the imaging apparatus to obtain the original image and of the original image itself. Therefore, it is demanded that the original image is subjected to the spatial shift variant-filtering according to the image characteristic at a high speed and the image is sufficiently corrected and the characteristic portions are extracted.
The image processing technique using a conventional space invariant filter will then be simply explained hereinbelow.
Namely, consideration is made with respect to an example such that with regard to the memory in which image information is stored for every pixel, for example, the first pixel and the second pixel which is fairly apart therefrom are filtered by the low-pass filters having the filter coefficients of the same value.
However, according to such a conventional invariant-filtering, only the filtering of the same state can be performed with respect to each pixel. In the above example, there exists a fact that there is actually the case where it is necessary to inherently make different the correction and enhancement of the images since the first pixel is spatially away from the second pixel. In spite of this fact, in this case, there is a drawback in that only the image processings of the same state can be executed.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an image processing apparatus in which image processing is performed using the shift variant filter with respect to the original image and the correction according to the image characteristics of the original image and the enhancement of the characteristic portions can be realized.
Another object of the invention is to provide an image processing apparatus having sufficiently high operation processing speed such that it can cope with medical diagnostic requests in the case of space variant-filtering of the original image.
These and other objects and features of the present invention can be accomplished by providing an image processing apparatus comprising means for storing original image data of an object under medical examination in one frame unit, said original image data being constructed from a plurality of pixel data, means for generating a reference signal containing at least address control data, shift variant filtering means for producing a plurality of shift variant filtering coefficients based upon said address control data, and filter processing means for firstly multiplying said plurality of pixel data of the image data by said plurality of shift variant filtering coefficients, and for secondly accumulating multiplied pixel data so as to reconstruct variant-filtered original image data of the object under medical examination.
For a understanding of these objects of the present invention, reference is made to the following detailed description of the invention to be read in conjunction with the following drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram of an image processing according to a first mode of the invention;
FIGS. 2A and 2B show a flowchart of typical operations of the apparatus shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 an illustration of pixels of the original image;
FIG. 4 is a schematic block diagram of the image processing apparatus according to a second mode;
FIG. 5 a block diagram of an internal circuit of the coefficient signal generating circuit shown in FIG. 4;
FIG. 6 a schematic block diagram of the image processing apparatus according to a third mode; FIGS. 7 and 8A-F illustrate advantages achieved by the image processing apparatus according to the invention; and
FIG. 9 is a functional block diagram of an image memory section of the two-dimensional image memory.
A spatial shift variant filter employed in the present invention will be first described. Addresses "i" and "j" ("i" denotes a horizontal address and "j" is a vertical address; for example in the case of a single image constructed from 512�512 pixels, the horizontal addresses "i"=0 to 511, the vertical addresses "j"=0 to 511) of an original image stored in a single two-dimensional (2D) image memory are considered. It is now assumed that one pixel is expressed by D(i, j).
In the case of a conventional spatial shift invariant filter, when a constant filter C0 (k, l) is given, the pixel D(i, j) which is obtained after the original image was subjected to the invariant filtering can be expressed by the following expression (1). ##EQU1##
Now assuming that -K≦k≦K and -L≦l≦L, 2K+1 and 2L+1 give the size of filter C0 (k, l). i-k and j-l denote converting addresses. It should be noted "k" and "l" of these addresses denote small letters of the addresses "K" and "L".
Next, when the shift variant filter according to the invention is expressed in a manner similar to the above, the pixel D(i, j) after the filtering in this case can be expressed by the following expression (2). ##EQU2##
Now assuming that ##EQU3## expression (2) can be expressed by ##EQU4##
Where, k and l are coefficients. A group of two-dimensional (2D) image memories constituting two-dimensional shift variant filters with respect to all combinations of k and l will then be considered hereinbelow.
For instance, when k=-K and l=-L, the filter coefficient of Ci,j (-K, -L) is input to the first 2D image memory. When k=-K+1 and l=-L, the filter coefficient of Ci,j(-K+ 1, -L) is input to the second 2D image memory.
Thus, when -K≦ k≦K and -L≦l≦L, the number N of necessary 2D image memories becomes N =(2K+1)�(2L+1).
By executing the shift variant filtering to the original image using the shift variant filtering to the variant filter coefficients regarding all of the combinations of k and l are stored in the group of 2D image memories consisting of N memories, the correction according to the characteristics of the original image and the enhancement of the characteristic portions can be certainly realized (this point will be described in detail hereinbelow).
An apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention using the principle of the variant filter mentioned above will now be described with reference to FIG. 1.
The image processing apparatus includes: a reference signal generating circuit 1; a two-dimensional image memory 2 serving as memory means; a spatial shift variant filter unit 8; a multiplier 6 serving as arithmetic operating means; and an accumulator 9. Reference signal generating circuit 1 generates one series of address signal ADS, address biasing value ADS-BIA, and selection signal SEL. 2D image memory 2 (addresses are expressed by "i" and "j") is controlled by address signal ADS and selection signal SEL and receives the address biasing value. An original image which is subjected to a variant filtering is stored into image memory 2. Spatial shift variant filter unit 8 comprises first to Nth two-dimensional image memories 3A, 3B, . . . , 3N and a selector 5. Each of image memories 3A to 3N has the same memory capacity as that of 2D image memory 2 and is controlled by the address signal. Different coefficient matrices Ci,j (-K, -L), Ci,j (-K+1, -L), . . . , Ci, j (K, L) are written into image memories 3A to 3N. Selector 5 is controlled by selection signal SEL and selectively calls the respective coefficient matrices from first to Nth 2D image memories 3A to 3N and then sends the selected matrix. Multiplier 6 multiplies a pixel PIX of the original image which is read out from image memory 2 with coefficient matrix CMX which is outputted from selector 5. Accumulator 9 comprises an output data memory 4 and an adder 7. Output data memory 4 is controlled by address signal ADS. Adder 7 adds an output of multiplier 6 and an output data from memory 4 on a pixel unit basis and sends the result of the addition again to memory 4.
The operation of the image processing apparatus will now be described. 2D image memory 2 is controlled by address signal ADS and selection signal SEL from reference signal generating circuit 1 and sends the pixel value D(i-k, j-l) in the converting address (i-k, j-l) of which the address biasing value was added to a certain address (i, j) in image memory 2 to multiplier 6 as one input signal.
Simultaneously, selector 5 receives selection signal SEL and selects as the value of the coefficient matrix one of the outputs of the first to Nth 2D image memories 3A to 3N of space variant filter unit 8 which is controlled by address signal ADS. Selector 5 then transfers the selected value of the coefficient matrix to multiplier 6 as the other input signal thereof.
Thus, multiplier 6 executes the multiplication to multiply the pixel D(i-k, j-l) with the coefficient matrix Ci,j (k, l). Namely, multiplier 6 executes the operation based on expression (3).
In this way, multiplier 6 sequentially multiplies the respective pixels D(i, l) with the coefficient matrixes Ci,j (k, l) of all of the combinations of coefficients k and l and sends the results of the multiplications to adder 7 in accumulator 9.
Adder 7 executes the operation based on expression (4) for every frame of the original image. Namely, each time the value of the coefficient (k, l) once changes, adder 7 adds the result of the multiplication by multiplier 6 and the output of memory 4 in which the result of the addition by adder 7 is stored on a pixel unit basis. The result of this addition is stored again into memory 4.
Adder 7 carries out the additions with respect to all of the combinations of the coefficient (k, l). Thus, D(i, j) of expression (4) is stored into memory 4 and the operations by the apparatus are ended.
Although not shown in detail in FIG. 1, address signal ADS from reference signal generating circuit 1 is supplied to the first input port and address biasing value ADS-BIA is supplied to the second input port, respectively. Outputs from the first and second input ports are supplied to the adder and summed. A combination of the result of the addition and the original image data stored already is selected by selection signal SEL and supplied to multiplier 6 and to accumulator 9.
The whole operation of the image processing apparatus of FIG. 1 mentioned above is also shown in detail with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 2.
As described above, a pixel A of the original image is multiplied with a coefficient matrix CA and a pixel B is multiplied with a coefficient matrix CB as pictorially illustrated in FIG. 3. Thus, it is possible to perform image processings of different corrections and enhancements with regard to pixels A and B.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of the second mode of the image processing apparatus of the invention, in which the parts and components having the same constitutions as those in the first mode of FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals.
Simply explaining, a different point is that a coefficient signal generating circuit 20 is provided in spatial shift variant filter unit 8.
In coefficient signal generating circuit 20, certain coefficients k and l are used as parameters and addresses i and j are used as variables. For the filter coefficient Ci,j (k, l), with respect to a certain pair of coefficients k and l, the filter coefficient Ci,j is given by a single algebraic function regarding i and j such as Ci,j =f(i, j).
In this case, since a pair of coefficients k and l correspond to each coefficient matrix Ci,j (k, l), it is possible to present the function which is equivalent to first to Nth 2D image memories 3A to 3N and selector 5.
The internal constitution of coefficient signal generating circuit 20 will now be described with reference to FIG. 5.
In generating circuit 20 of FIG. 5, for the coefficients of the space variant filter, the effective addresses are obtained by converting two kinds of addresses "k" and "i" regarding the horizontal direction of the matrix and two kinds of addresses "l" and "j" regarding the vertical direction by way of the conversion tables preliminarily stored in ROMs 21, 22, and 23.
On one hand, the data corresponding to the effective addresses is preliminarily stored in a RAM 24 prior to executing the variant filtering by a CPU 28. The storage control is performed by selectively controlling an address selector 25 and data buffers 26 and 27 by selection signal SEL, so that RAM 24 is accessed.
In execution of the variant filtering, the read address of RAM 24 uses an output address (i.e., effective address) of ROM 23 and the space variant filter coefficient is derived as an output through data buffer 27.
As a modified form, if the space variant filter can be limited to one kind, another ROM may be used in place of RAM 24. In this case, there is an advantage such that the CPU address, CPU data, and circuit of address selector 25 are unnecessary.
An image processing apparatus in the third mode will be described with reference to FIG. 6.
The third mode has an arrangement similar to that of the first mode of FIG. 1 and the same or similar parts and elements are designated by the same reference numerals.
Namely, in the apparatus shown in FIG. 1, the address (i, j) in 2D image memory 2 was converted into the converting address (i-k, j-l) by address signal ADS and address biasing value ADS-BIA. However, the invention can be also similarly embodied by the following method. That is, the address signals of two systems, i.e., the address signal which gives the address (i, j) and the address signal which gives the converting address (i-k, j-l) are separately generated from reference signal generating circuit 1. The former signal is given to 2D image memories 3A to 3N in space variant filter 8 and output data memory 4, and the latter is given to another two-dimensional image memory 32, respectively.
A readout data (RED-DT) from 2D image memory 32 is supplied to multiplier 6 in accumulator 9 and multiplied with the filter coefficients from selector 5.
Although the effects of the embodiments in the first to third modes have already been described in detail, a further detailed explanation will be made hereinbelow for comprehensively understanding the advantages of the invention. The advantages which will be described hereinbelow are examples of the advantages of the invention and it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to only these effects.
First, with reference to an illustration of FIG. 7, an explanation will be made with respect to the typical effect according to the invention in the case of correcting the defects of the image which are caused due to the peripheral resolution and central resolution of the image in the digital fluoroscopy which has been known in the X-ray image processing field.
For the image in the digital fluoroscopy, it is necessary to constitute a filter to remove the blurring of the image as shown in, e.g., FIG. 7 due to the spatial variance of the MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) of the image pickup tube.
Although FIG. 7 shows an example of the filtering in the x direction, the filtering may be also similarly performed in the y direction. In FIG. 7, the forms of the variant filters differ with respect to five typical pixels; however, they are individually given for every pixel.
The form Ci,j (k, l) of such a correcting filter can be inherently theoretically calculated by the circuit to scan the image pickup tube or from the shape of the scanning beam, or the like. The spatial shift variant filter obtained in this way has a feature such that even if a significant object under diagnostic examinations exists at any location on the image, the object image can be corrected without causing any artifact in the image according to the invention.
The image processing apparatus of the invention is not limited to the foregoing technical fields but can be also applied to the endoscope field.
Generally, in the endoscope system, a detector having a wide angle lens is used, so that optical distortions occur in the central and peripheral portions of the image pickup portion. Thus, the optical distortions become large obstacles in the case of measuring the distance of the object under medical examinations on the image or the like. However, there is an effect such that such a drawback can be also solved by the space variant filter of the invention.
In other words, the distortion factor of the wide angle lens is preliminarily measured and the difference ΔDij between the measured value and the value when it has no distortion can be obtained for every pixel. However, as shown in FIG. 8, if the spatial shift variant filter has a phase component, it is possible to derive an image from which the distortion has been removed.
For example, in an image matrix 50 of FIG. 8A, consideration will be made with respect to the state in which four pixels (i0, j0), (il, jl), (i3, j3), and (i4, j4) in the peripheral portion were moved from the original positions by only the distance of two pixels due to the above-mentioned distortion.
Therefore, by executing the shift variant filtering according to the invention, those pixels can be returned by only the distance of two pixels in the directions indicated by arrows 52, 54, 56 and 58. Namely, by variant-filtering the respective pixels due to the filter coefficients shown in FIGS. 8B to 8F, such a distortion can be corrected. It will be understood from FIG. 8A that the movement of the position due to the distortion doesn't occur in the pixel (i2, j2) in the central portion. A desired object can be accomplished by obtaining the filter coefficients for correction as mentioned above with respect to all pixels constituting the image.
The present invention is not limited to the foregoing embodiments, but many modifications and variations are possible within the spirit and scope of the appended claims of the invention.
For instance, a two-dimensional image memory section shown in FIG. 9 may be used in place of the two-dimensional image memory 2 of the first mode shown in FIG. 1. For simplicity, memory section 80 for one pixel is shown.
In FIG. 9, image memory section 80 comprises: a memory chip 81; adders 82 and 83 for respectively adding horizontal and vertical address signals, which will be explained later; a selector 85 for selecting one of input data 84 of two systems; and an output buffer 87 for outputting one or both of output data 86 of two systems.
An invariant address signal ADR-HOL to designate an address in the horizontal direction of an image is input to adder 82. Adder 82 is provided with a bias address circuit 88 which receives a bias addressing signal ADR-BIA-HOL and a bias enable signal BIA-ENB. When bias enable signal BIA-ENB is input to bias address circuit 88, invariant address signal ADR-HOL is output as an effective address signal EF-ADR-HOL from adder 82. On the contrary, when bias enable signal BIA-ENB is not input, invariant address signal ADR-HOL and bias address signal ADR-BIA-HOL are added by adder 82 and the added value is outputted as effective address signal EF-ADR-HOL.
On the other hand, adder 83 determines an effective address EF-ADR-VER in the vertical direction of the image and has a bias address circuit 89 having a function similar to bias address circuit 88 of adder 82. An invariant address signal ADR-VER in the vertical direction, bias address signal ADR-BIA-VER, and bias enable signal BIA-ENB, which when present negates signal ADR-BIA-VER, are input as input signals of adder 83. A write command signal WRT-COT and a readout command signal RED-COT to instruct the writing and readout of the image data are input to image memory section 80. Write command signal WRT-COT instructs to select and write one of input data 84 of two systems which are supplied to selector 85. Readout command signal RED-COT instructs to read out one or both of the output data of two systems from output buffer 87. Invariant address signals ADR-HOL and ADR-VER, bias address signals ADR-BIA-HOL and ADR-BIA-VER, bias enable signal BIA-ENB, write command signal WRT-COT, and readout command signal RED-COT are outputted from a controller (not shown in detail) serving as control means.
As described above, according to the invention, it is possible to provide an image processing apparatus which can realize spatial shift variant filtering according to the pixel positions of the original image and to the image characteristics and which can accurately and promptly obtain information which is medically useful by correcting and enhancing the image in correspondence to the image conditions.
Therefore, the image processing apparatus of the invention is not limited to only the X-ray digital fluoroscopy or endoscope system but may be applied to other medical fields.

By looks of these images if V.Stiviano was going to be a side chick maybe should have took one for the team and kept her mouth closed, and no I'm not talking about the Clippers either I'm talking about her airing out Donald's dirty laundry. After losing a legal war with Shelly Stiviano was ordered to move out of the L.A. duplex that she thought Donald had given her for life, well things surely do change fast because the judge agreed and ordered her to give back the duplex and the cash value of all the cars.
TMZ spoke with Stiviano's attorney who says she is still considering if she should file an appeal to fight the ruling. At least she's not homeless, as TMZ were told she has found a new place. Maybe now she will think twice before engaging in a relationship with a married man, what's your thoughts on women dating married men? Is it their fault or the man?

Evidence suggests that when oil interacts with particles in the marine environment, it can form larger, rapidly sinking particles called marine snow.
These oily aggregates are often transported from the sea surface to the seafloor. The snow falls more like a heavy blizzard than a light flurry for large discharges such as the Deepwater Horizon spill and could present a pathway for oil to enter the food web as it descends. Recent research indicates that oil transported to the seafloor is an important piece in calculating the oil budget. However, oil transported via marine snow is rarely incorporated into oil transport models, which focus on the distribution of oil by currents.
The Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative recently awarded Dr. Adrian Burd a grant to develop a model with parameters that can predict how oil will interact with other particles present in the marine environment. Burd's team will then use this model to investigate how these interactions affect oil sedimentation to the deep ocean. Burd explained, "It is important to understand the mechanisms behind oil-particle interactions and processes because, although these aggregates remove oil from surface waters, they also cause oil to be deposited on the ocean floor."
The schematic (at right) depicts the interactions between oil, mineral particles, and marine snow in the water column. Oil droplets in the water column can create aggregates with mineral particles and marine snow. These large particles rapidly sink through the water column carrying the oil with them, creating a process that transports oil from the surface to the deep ocean. Sinking particles that pass through sub-surface oil layers can accumulate and carry even more oil to the ocean floor. Meanwhile, oil that reaches the surface can form large mucus-oil aggregates which can also subsequently sink to the ocean floor. (Figure by Adrian Burd).
The researchers plan to incorporate oil droplets, mineral particles, microbial mucus flocs, and the relevant processes affecting them (such as weathering and microbial production) into an existing coagulation model. First, they will develop a surface model extending from the ocean surface to 140 meters depth and begin constructing parameters that will predict the microbial-mucus-oil aggregates' sizes and the rates at which they form and sink through the water column. Then, they will extend the model through the whole water column and incorporate the effects of oil-particle interactions and oil sedimentation rates.
The full model will allow the team to predict how much oil is trapped in these sinking aggregates and how rapidly it settles under a wide range of conditions. Burd emphasized the utility of this model, "This information will be useful not only to understanding the fate of oil in water but also to first-responders, who will need to know how the oil is distributed in the water."
This project's researchers are Adrian Burd at the University of Georgia Department of Marine Science, Kendra Daly at the University of South Florida College of Marine Science, and Uta Passow at the University of California – Santa Barbara Marine Science Institute with outreach support from Liesl Hotaling at the University of South Florida College of Marine Science. Their project is Oil-Marine Snow-Mineral Aggregate Interactions and Sedimentation during the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill.
The Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) is a 10-year independent research program established to study the effect, and the potential associated impact, of hydrocarbon releases on the environment and public health, as well as to develop improved spill mitigation, oil detection, characterization and remediation technologies. An independent and academic 20-member Research Board makes the funding and research direction decisions to ensure the intellectual quality, effectiveness and academic independence of the GoMRI research. All research data, findings and publications will be made publicly available. The program was established through a $500 million financial commitment from BP.

The campaign has been dubbed Plan B, and campaigners include Tesco, Morrisons, PLB and Bibendum.
"We are united in the belief that France needs to change the way it promotes its wine in the UK if it is ever to regain – or even stabilise – its market share," the Plan B campaigners wrote in a letter to Agriculture & Fisheries Minister Michel Barnier, seen by OLN.
France has slipped into fifth place, behind not just Australia and the US, but also Italy and South Africa by volume in the 12 weeks to June 13, according to Nielsen, and remains in third place behind Australia and the US by value.
Guy Anderson, owner of Guy Anderson Wines, who is leading the campaign, said: "The importers need to persuade their suppliers to use some of their levies to fund a generic campaign."
"French regions need to learn not to be selfish about protecting their own interests and promote France as one," said PLB managing director Peter Darbyshire.
Thierry's commercial director Matthew Dickinson added: "France needs to use its strengths to market to the UK consumer in a unified fashion."
"I have just returned from South Africa, where producers place national benefit ahead of personal gain, but in France there are disputes within regions as well as between them, as highlighted in the Loire and the rosé debates," said Tesco's Graham Nash. "There could be much better progress achieved from the regions working together, perhaps enabling France to stabilise and even grow its market share."
The campaigners want the 21 bodies representing France's regions to team up with France Agrimer (formerly Viniflhor) and pay 50% towards a generic marketing campaign in the UK. The other half would be funded via the Ministry of Agriculture & Fisheries.
They are calling for a meeting with the regional bodies and Barnier.
Until last year, Viniflhor had a large budget to promote French wines in UK retail chains, but since January European law has restricted member states from directly promoting in this way in member states, so any generic, country-wide campaign needs to be part-funded by regional bodies. But the regional bodies have refused to take part in such an initiative, the letter explained.
"The regions must know that, while on the French market they are rivals, in the UK their strength lies in them being seen as part of a greater France," it said.

René Burri
René Burri – Vintage prints – Le Corbusier
20.08.2010 - 07.11.2010
Tue–Sun 10am–5pm
Museum Bellerive
René Burri, born in Zurich in 1933, is one of the most important photographers of our time. He studied in Hans Finsler's legendary photography class at the Kunstgewerbeschule (School of Arts and Crafts) and found his own visual style early with his portraits and reportage photography. Before he undertook countless journeys to the scenes of world events as a member of the renowned Magnum photo agency, he produced two powerful photo series on the chapel of Ronchamp. Particularly in 1959 and 1960 he concerned himself intensively with the work and character of Le Corbusier, who was already regarded as the epitome of the architect. Museum für Gestaltung Zürich was recently able to acquire over a hundred valuable vintage prints – including numerous photo icons – from Burri's Le Corbusier portfolio. This wonderful treasure forms the core of the exhibition shown at Museum Bellerive, which also includes previously unknown color photos and other valuable items from Burri's collection.

One of the greatest gifts you can give to those you love may come in the form of thoughtful planning of your cemetery and funeral arrangements. Prearranging our final arrangements is not much different from any other planning we carry out during our lifetime. We buy insurance in case of fire, flood, theft and accidents. This coverage is purchased as an act of concern and responsibility to protect those we love. By pre-funding our funeral and cemetery arrangements, we provide the most loving gift for our family's, at one of their most difficult times.
People who have prearranged say it's a great source of comfort because it …
– Eliminates second guessing about your wishes – reflects your wishes
– Relieves your loved ones of unnecessary concern when their needs are most important
– Saves hundreds of dollars by planning and funding tomorrow's funeral at today's costs.
One of the most difficult times in any family's life is the period of deep sorrow following the loss of a loved one. Yet in many cases, it is during this period of grief that the bereaved family must make the important decisions regarding funeral or cemetery arrangements. In addition to the emotional loss experienced with the death of a loved one, families can incur a heavy financial burden due to emotional spending and needless costs regarding interment.
Additional hardship created for your family with at-need interment arrangements can be avoided with advanced funeral or cemetery planning. Santa Rosa Memorial Park's preneed plan makes it possible to finance the cost of services and property over an extended period of time.
By selecting Santa Rosa Memorial Park and Mortuary, all funeral arrangements can be made at one convenient location. It is far easier to prepare for the inevitable with a clear mind unclouded by sorrow. Substantial savings can also be realized when one considers the inflationary increases in costs over a period of years. Above all, those left behind will not have to make the required arrangements at the most helpless time of their lives.

Aglaonema Silver Queen is easy to care for and can be maintained at the lower light levels often found in the home or office environment. The common name for Aglaonema is Chinese Evergreen and there are many varieties of Aglaonema plants. New ones are introduced very frequently.
Aglaonema Silver
Aglaonema Silver Queen is one of the older, more well known types of Chinese Evergreen and has been used in interior landscapes for decades. It has a pale silvery-green leaf with darker green margins and markings. Quite an attractive plant!
Houseplant questions or problem? If you do not find the information you need here, I would be happy to answer any houseplant questions as I can or help you find answers. Free of charge, no sign-ups required!
You can send an aglaonema house plant question but before you do, please read this information on watering your indoor plants, how to help keep your house plant's root system healthy and lighting for your house plants. These are most important for your house plant's health and this is some of the information I will refer you to when you send an email.
Aglaonema Silver Queen has a bush-like or clumping growth and, depending on the pot size, can be from 8 inches to 4 feet in height. Almost all varieties of Aglaonema are variegated to some extent.
Keep in mind that the variegated types need more light than those with less variegation. Typically, the lighter the color of a plant, the higher the light levels it needs to maintain its color and variegation.
*Buy Silver Queen Aglaonema - 6" Pot/Decorative Cover*
Temperatures for Aglaonema Silver Queen should be at a minimum of 60°F. It is easily damaged by cold drafts and temperatures. Be sure to keep away from cold spots and in the winter time.
Place Aglaonema Silver Queen in any shaded location. Full sun, especially through glass, will most likely burn the exposed leaves. This plant will survive in low light. For a really nice looking plant, try to provide bright, diffused natural light.
Ideal for use in professional office space, Aglaonema Silver Queen is attractive and easy care. This is a great plant for areas with artificial lighting.
Watering Silver Queen - If you place your Aglaonema Silver Queen in high light, you can allow the potting mix to dry down approximately 1/2 to 3/4 of the way before watering thoroughly. In a lower light situation, allow soil to dry between waterings. Please read the section on watering and lighting for more on the most important parts of your plant's care.
*Buy Silver Queen Aglaonema - 6" Pot/Decorative Cover*
Mealy bugs are one of the most common insect problems that you will have with Aglaonema Silver Queen. An oval shaped, somewhat flattened body and six legs distinguish this insect, although they can appear to have more legs because of their "antennae" and "tails". They also have a fringe around the body. A waxy, protective substance covers the body of adults and egg sacs giving them a cottony appearance.
Normally are found in hidden areas, be sure to check undersides of the leaves and leaf axils. Mealybugs excrete a sticky substance called honeydew so if your plant feels sticky, suspect mealybugs. Keep an eye out for these pest, especially when you first bring a new plant home.
Quarantine new additions to your plant family for at least two weeks. You want to be sure your plant is pest free before placing with any other house plants. The incubation period for many houseplant insects is 7-10 days. Anything you might have missed should show up within 2 weeks.
Washing with a spray mixture of mild liquid dish soap and water is also helpful in keeping any pest problems in check. Treat until run off, let dry then apply the second wash. You must be sure to hit the undersides of the leaves and the stems also. Twice a week for two weeks and your plant should be safe.
Never apply anything onto your plants leaves with the plant in the sun or when the soil is dry. Move out of the sun and water first.
Thanks for visiting and come back soon as plant care information, pictures and more are being added all of the time. I hope that your indoor tropical Aglaonema Silver Queen plants and all of your plants and flowers are happy, green and growing because that is why I started this site PlantAndFlowerInfo.com.

It was surprising to see Ram Gopal Varma changing his mind on the title of his upcoming movie Bejawada, which was earlier titled Bejawada Rowdilu. The filmmaker's decision for rechristening the movie stunned the audience, as the director was adamant to change it from the day it was launched. However, now the reason behind the move has been revealed.
If reports are to be believed, Nagarjuna told Ram Gopal Varma to change the title, Bejawada Rowdilu to Bejawada. The doting father, who is not happy after Naga Chaitanya's Dhada bombed at the Box Office, seems to be taking extra care towards his son's career. He does not want the budding actor's film to be associated with controversies. Hence, he advised the filmmaker to change it, claims a report.
Ram Gopal Varma, who did not reveal the real reason behind the change of title, refused to talk about it. He said, "Kaaranaala valla Bezawada Rowdilu peru Bezawaada gaa maarcha. kaaranam emitani ememi voohaalu chesukunna asalu kaaranam naa okkadike thelusu."
Bejawada Rowdilu is said to be based on the real life conflicts between two politicians Devineni Nehru and late legislator Vangaveeti Ranga. Their rivalry took an ugly turn when they lost their close members of the family. As a result, Nehru's two siblings were assassinated and Ranga and his brother were killed in 1980s.
Vivek Krishna directorial Bejawada features Naga Chaintanya and Amala Paul in the leads.

New Zealand posted their third successive victory by prevailing 3-1 over an erratic Pakistan in the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup hockey tournament here on Sunday.
By virtue of this win, New Zealand not only boosted their points tally to nine but also consolidated their position on top of the standings.
After taking a three-goal lead four minutes into the second session, the Black Sticks had to ward off numerous Pakistani raids from which the Asian champions could score only once.
New Zealand had earlier outplayed India and Argentina in their previous matches, while Pakistan has three points from their win against Argentina.
Ryan Archibald opened the scoring off a pass from Arun Panchia in the eighth minute and Andy Hayward converted a penalty corner two minutes later to help New Zealand race to a 2-0 lead.
Pakistan missed a good scoring chance in the 13th minute when a cross from Muhammad Waqas drifted across the goalmouth with two Pakistan strikers unable to push it in.
Pakistan forced two penalty corners but Muhammad Imran and skipper Sohail Abbas failed to make an impression with their shots on the New Zealand goal.
New Zealand came close to scoring two minutes into the second half when Hayward's shot rebounded off the post, but two minutes later Nick Wilson made it 3-0 by capitalising on a penalty corner rebound.

Dear Colleague:
In the interest of promoting school safety and students' well-being, we ask that you join us in requesting $55 million for the Elementary and Secondary School Counseling Program (ESSCP) in fiscal year 2011.
School-employed counseling professionals are at the forefront of efforts to help students cope with violence, peer conflicts, deployment of parents to combat areas, grief and loss, heightened security threats, transitioning to new schools, as well as the possible ongoing mental health effects of such events. These professionals guide students in academic, social, emotional, behavioral, and career development, putting them on a path toward a successful educational future and a rewarding career.
The ESSCP aims to establish comprehensive school counseling programs so that school counselors, school psychologists, school social workers, child and adolescent psychiatrists, and other qualified psychologists can work together to make a difference in our students' lives. For the 2007-08 school year, this program provided support services in 97 school districts in 22 states. In fiscal year 2010,the ESSCP was funded at $55 million, and we are sending the letter below to appropriators asking that Congress provide the same amount in FY11 for this essential program.
Congress made a commitment to ensuring our children's educational success, and school counseling services play an essential role in this important goal. Please join us in supporting the Elementary and Secondary School Counseling Program so that our students have every opportunity to succeed. This letter is considered a programmatic request and does not require members to submit individual disclosure forms. If you would like more information or wish to sign on the letter to appropriators, please contact Kirtley Fisher at 5-2735 or firstname.lastname@example.com (Rep. Langevin) or Rachel Fenton at 5-3831 or email@example.com (Rep. Ehlers) by March 12th.

The Honorable David R. Obey
Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services and Education
2358-B Rayburn House Office Building

The Honorable Todd Tiahrt
Ranking Member
Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services and Education
1016 Longworth House Office Building
Washington , DC 20515
Dear Chairman Obey and Ranking Member Tiahrt:
As you prepare appropriations legislation for the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education for fiscal year 2011, we respectfully request that you provide $55 million in funding for the Elementary and Secondary School Counseling Program (ESSCP), as you did in the bill passed by the House of Representatives for fiscal year 2010.
The ESSCP is the only federal program devoted to the creation and expansion of counseling programs in our nation's schools. As part of the No Child Left Behind Act, Congress expanded the ESSCP to include secondary school activities, but, due to the program's statutory funding trigger, secondary schools cannot benefit unless total funding exceeds $40 million, with that base amount reserved for elementary schools. As you know, Congress appropriated $55 million for the ESSCP in the FY 2010 omnibus spending bill, which allowed both middle and high schools to apply for grant funds this year.
For the 2007-08 school year, this program provided support services in 97 school districts in 22 states. The need for counseling services at both the elementary and secondary school levels is clear, but the ability of school-employed counseling professionals to assist students in need is hindered by extraordinarily high student-to-professional ratios. Currently, the average student-to-counselor ratio in America 's public schools is 460 to 1, while the student-to-school psychologist ratio is over 1600 to 1. The American School Health Association recommends maximum ratios of one school counselor to 250 students, one school social worker to 400 students, and one school psychologist to 1,000 students, but these professionals are often faced with caseloads of double or even triple that size.
The ESSCP allows school-employed counseling professionals like school counselors, school psychologists, school social workers, child and adolescent psychiatrists and other qualified psychologists, to work together to establish a comprehensive counseling program that helps to address barriers to learning and promote academic success. These professionals guide students in academic, social, emotional, behavioral, and career development, preparing them for fulfilling lives as responsible members of society. They also work collaboratively to help students overcome barriers that impede their ability to stay in school, achieve academically, and develop the communication and interpersonal relationship skills needed to be successful in college and future employment. A systematic educational planning program helps a student to make individual choices geared to his or her unique abilities, interests and goals, which is an important goal of No Child Left Behind. This kind of guidance is in demand now more than ever as we prepare students for the 21st century, and future education and careers in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields.
We appreciate your support for the ESSCP, and we ask that once again Congress fulfills its commitment to ensuring students' success and well-being by sufficiently funding this program in FY 2011. We look forward to working with you on this important initiative and appreciate your consideration of this request.

GEAR Software announced the addition of a digital video-to-MPEG encoder to its GEARWorks SDK for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.
According to the statement, GEARWorks SDK is a DVD and CD authoring and burning engine that is licensed by GEAR to software development companies. The GEAR encoder will be made available to GEAR's existing GEARWorks licensees, along with future GEAR customers with video encoding requirements.
GEAR's new encoder accepts Digital Video (DV) as a source and filters it to render DVD compliant output to GEARWorks SDK. It has the ability to filter the source video and eliminate conflicts associated with ingesting sub-standard output from video encoding hardware into the GEAR authoring engine. As a result, software developers who license GEARWorks no longer need to license a third-party encoder if they use DV as a source.

White chocolate raspberry parfaits
For the mousse:
- 2 to 3 cups of heavy cream that is divided
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
- Pinch of cinnamon
- Half a cup of white chocolate chips
- 20 ml cognac
For the sauce
- 2 cups frozen or fresh raspberries
- Squeeze of lemon juice
- 1+ tablespoon water
- ⅓ cup Dixie Crystals Sugar.
- Grind the yolks with the sugar and until a creamy consistency.
- Make the mousse: beat the 1 ¾ cups of the heavy cream, the vanilla with a pinch of cinnamon and the powdered sugar until it feels smooth and soft in a large bowl. I guess it should take around 2 minutes. You can do this hand electric mixer.
- Make the sauce: In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Simmer and stir occasionally till berries break down. Mix together cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to make a slurry (you can add a little more water if needed). Mix into a hot raspberry sauce and cook till mixture thickens. Strain through a mesh sieve to remove seeds and set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Take a medium sized bowl and put the white chocolate chips into it. Add some cream into it and beat it well. Keep it in a microwave for 30 seconds of intervals, until you can feel that the chocolate is melting down really well. Whisk the cream that is whipped into this chocolate that is melted. Then add cognac.
- Now, you need to divide half the mousse into 6 small tumblers, top each of them by using 1 or 2 tablespoons of chilled raspberry sauce. You can also top it up by putting some raspberries on the top. Repeat doing the same thing again and form another layer.
- Refrigerate it well until the mixture turns cold and let it stay there for at least 30 minutes. Serve it cool and enjoy!
Parfait can be served as a separate dessert (souffle, ice cream or cake-ice cream). For ice-cream-cake, there are special forms, so you can easily lay them in multi-colored layers, ice cream and mousses.
Serve in dessert bowls or on dessert plates, decorate with berry sauce.

"Eat food, not too much, mostly plants."
Since we've renewed our interest in fitness (or more directly, not living in a nursing home anytime in the next 30 years), I've been doing some reading (imagine that).
"In Defense of Food" is one of the most interesting books I've read on nutrition. And the best line in the book is "Eat food, not too much, mostly plants". OK, just a few more words, from the book's description…
"Because in the so-called Western diet, food has been replaced by nutrients, and common sense by confusion–most of what we're consuming today is longer the product of nature but of food science. The result is what Michael Pollan calls the American Paradox: The more we worry about nutrition, the less healthy we become."
Read it if you're looking for an illuminating read on the subject.
Anyone have other books to suggest since we're on this "tack"? Please leave a comment and share! CHEERS! Jan
P.S. CC Reader Larry makes some good points on nutrition in a comment to my Sail Far! Live Longer. post. He & his wife prefer "Forks Over Knives" which can be bought or rented on Amazon. Personally, I'm a reader and not much of a watcher, so the book version of "Forks Over Knives" is also available — or get it from your local library. 🙂

Last Sept I was giving a 3 weeks training on multispectral imaging for art examination at the Instituto Nacional de Patrimonio Cultural in Quito, Ecuador. While we were doing UV fluorescence photography, I noticed in the pitch dark room, my student was glowing in the dark. It turned out it was his tattoo.
So, I was intrigued and I thought it worth to give his tattoo a multispectral imaging examination. It was out of curiosity, though, doing some little research I found out some applications of multispectral imaging for tattoo pigments identification
It turned out that my student, conservator and artist, designs his tattoo, a mix of Ecuadorian and worldwide cultural symbols. The Wandijas, those spirits that look so much as extraterrestrial visitors, talk with some dinosaurs, creatures Cristian is definitely fascinated by.

His girlfriend commited suicide almost a year ago and I called things off with my fiance around the same time. We spent a lot of time together and sex just kind of happened because we were both in remorse of our other relationships and knew we could trust each other. Well, time has passed and a few months ago I told him that I liked him and that I wasn't interested in anyone else. He said he didn't have the will to be anybody's boyfriend right now which hurt, but I understood given the extreme situation. However, last week we met up...we had a great time catching up, went out and at the end of the night he started kissing me and wouldn't let go. I was very vulnerable with him and told him that I wanted to be with him and that I would wait for him if that's what it took for it to happen. He didn't really say much, and looked a little surprised, but happy that I had said it. We care about each other a lot but we also distance each other because we're not "together." I'm very much in love with him, we bring out the best in each other. What do I do to not screw this up?
Dating someone who lost their girlfriend to suicide....please help.

What Guys Said 1
We all mourn at our own pace, some take a lot longer than others.
If you really do love him, you need to put your willpower to work and give him the time he needs. Keep in touch with him, suggest meetings/dates and when you do see him in person show affection.
Don't crowd him though, how often do you talk to him? Personally I would recommend 2-3 times a week if it's a phone conversation. Let him know you're still waiting for him but don't mention it every single time.
In these kinds of situations there is a fine line between showing interest and being clingy, and where the line is varies from situation to situation, it's up to you to find it and avoid crossing it.00|00|0
Thank you very much for this. I find this incredibly helpful :)

Porn Scenes » Big Tits » Stairway To Hooter Heaven
Stairway To Hooter Heaven
Featuring: Shione Cooper and Kamil Klein
Date: 02/26/2016
Duration: 31:14 min.
From the second Shione Cooper begins playing with her delicious body to the very end when she spits out the hot cum onto her beautiful, big tits, Shione proved her unlimited sex appeal. Anyone who can find even one little thing to criticize about Shione needs to have his head scanned. Her face, her body and her moves are hooter heaven-sent as she's fucked outside under blue skies. Growing up, Shione was a punky chick with short hair, then she blossomed. Shione started off as a dancer back home in the Czech Republic and decided to take the hard porn ride after a year of very soft glamour modeling. That was very surprising but girls seem to always make surprising moves. She is also a model agent. Her partner in this scene left exhausted..and Shione will leave you exhausted too. .

What's the weirdest 911 call you've ever received?
Check it out and add your own thoughts in the comments
A question posted recently on Quora asked, "What was the weirdest call ever received on 911?" Farah Rogers, a 911 dispatcher and trainer, gave her opinion on the topic below. Check it out and add your own thoughts in the comments.
There is no way to know what the weirdest call at any agency is but I can tell you the weirdest call I ever recieved.
I got a 911 call from a female for her husband having chest pains. The ambulance checked out on scene and it ended up being a schizophrenic male chasing a female (and now my ambulance crew) with a machete. He then took off into the woods naked with said machete. Officers got dispatched and couldn't find him, a helicopter got sent and couldn't find him.
I got a second 911 call from a cell phone pinging next door about an hour later from a man laying on a garage floor saying a demon attacked him and he couldn't get up.
I thought maybe the first naked guy had attacked him.
That caller ended up being the naked guy with the machete. He hit himself with the machete. Officers got there and he started stabbing himself in the chest. They tazed him, disarmed him, took him to the hospital and got him on meds.
He barely had cuts (maybe a dull blade). He's fine now. He brought us cookies last weekend.

Ministry of Labour, Social, Family Affairs and Integration
Residence Unlimited Residence Documents
Unlike the residence permit, the settlement permit and the EU long-term residence permit are unlimited residence documents.
Unlimited Residence Documents - Hamburg Welcome Portal
Permanent Residence Permit / Settlement Permit ("Niederlassungserlaubnis")
A settlement permit ("Niederlassungserlaubnis") entitles the holder to reside in the Federal Republic of Germany for an indefinite period and to exercise a gainful employment as well.
To obtain a settlement permit, you normally must have been in possession of a valid residence permit for five years.
further granting prerequisites:
- secure livelihood by own means (without reliance on social benefits!)
- continous health insurance coverage
- at least 60 months of contributions to the German statutory retirement pension insurance or comparable private retirement provisions
- sufficient accommodation
- sufficient German language skills and basic knowledge of the legal and social system in Germany
- recognised and valid passport or substitute passport
- no criminal record
The permanent residence permit will be issued after a personal visit at the Aliens Office in charge. Please enquire in advance for the documents you have to submit and keep in mind to arrange an appointment if necessary.
The permanent residence permit will be issued in form of an electronic residence permit (check card format). Once your personal document got done and is ready to be picked up at the Aliens Office in charge, you will receive a notification from the Federal Printing Office (Bundesdruckerei), the so called "PIN letter".
Exceptional rules for EU Blue Card holders:
- Holders of an EU Blue Card who can prove that they have been in qualified employment and that they have paid contributions to statutory pension insurance or comparable benefits are granted a permanent residence permit after a period of just 33 months.
- When proving language skills at level B1, EU Blue Card holders can apply for a permanent residence permit even after a period of just 21 months.
EU long-term residence permit ("Erlaubnis zum Daueraufenthalt – EU")
The EU long-term residence permit is also a permanent residence document that entitles the holder to pursue an economic activity. The qualifying conditions of its issue are very similar to those of the settlement permit. However, the EU long-term residence permit also entitles the holder to move within the European Union by granting a right to a temporary residence title in other Member States.

Arsenal star midfielder Jack Wilshere have reportedly agreed loan deal to join Bournemouth, according to BBC journalist David Ornstein.
Jack Wilshere set to join Bournemouth. Arsenal rejected Roma, Palace think their bid over & focusing elsewhere #AFC #AFCB #CPFC #DeadlineDay
— David Ornstein (@bbcsport_david) August 31, 2016
The 24-year old has been recovering from an injury and Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger have held talks with the player over his future and both the player and the club were keen to seal a loan deal.
The loan deal meant Jack Wilshere could step up his recovery and get crucial first team football post his recovery. The availability of Wilshere has taken rounds all across Europe and earlier reports suggested that as many as 22 offers were received over the past two days.
The exciting midfielder whose career is plagued with injuries over the past few years have drawn attraction from Crystal Palace, Roma, Juventus and few others. However, Bournemouth have agreed a deal for the midfielder and the club would benefit the most if he stays fit.
The signing of Granit Xhaka meant the competition for places in midfield is more than before. The emergence of Francis Coquelin in the last season and the ever present Santi Cazorla meant the English international is way behind the pecking order and his playing time would be limited at Emirates if he was to stay.
Arsenal would be keen in player's progress as he has the potential to become one of the best midfielders in Europe in the upcoming years if he doesn't face more injury setbacks.
