Extractions: See how we're connected Aretha Franklin 's US$19,000 tax bill will be paid by PETA if she promises never to wear fur again. The Respect singer is close to having her Michigan home repossessed unless she can come up with the money. PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) have agreed to settle the bill if she agrees to their terms, which also include handing over her collection of fur coats. PETA says it's a win-win situation. Interestingly, should Aretha accept the offer and renege on her promise never to wear fur, she will be slammed and PETA will emerge even stronger. Lots of message board controversy wondering why PETA doesn't just donate the money to a shelter. The discourse of buying a celebrity resonates far louder and sustains itself longer than a donation.

http://mrl.nyu.edu/~perlin/doc/oscar.html

Extractions: M. P. A. (click here for legal notice) In 1997 I received a Technical Achievement Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for work I did back in the 1980's on procedural texture. For example, the NYU Torch on the right is made entirely from procedural textures (except for the text along the bottom). The flame, background, and metal and marble handle are not actually 3D models - they are all entirely faked with textures. A hi-res image of a marble vase I made using this technique can be found here . A bunch of other texture images I created back in the 1980's can be found here I've written up a fun history and how-to site called MAKING NOISE . It includes a tutorial, examples, animations, and interactive applet diagrams, plus a description of a hardware implementation. I've recently improved it, and wrote a paper about that. You can play with interactive demos of the improved version here You can play with designing noise-based textures yourself with a really nice interactive Java Applet created by Justin Legakis.

Digital Camera Image Noise: Concept And Types

http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/noise.htm

Extractions: "Image noise" is the digital equivalent of film grain for analogue cameras. Alternatively, one can think of it as analogous to the subtle background hiss you may hear from your audio system at full volume. For digital images, this noise appears as random speckles on an otherwise smooth surface and can significantly degrade image quality. Although noise often detracts from an image, it is sometimes desirable since it can add an old-fashioned, grainy look to an image which is reminiscent of of early film. Some noise can also increase the apparent sharpness of an image. Noise increases with the sensitivity setting in the camera, length of the exposure, temperature, and even varies amongst different camera models. Some degree of noise is always present in any electronic device that transmits or receives a "signal." For televisions this signal is the broadcast data transmitted over cable or received at the antenna; for digital cameras, the signal is the light which hits the camera sensor. Even though noise is unavoidable, it can become so small relative to the signal that it appears to be nonexistent. The signal to noise ratio (SNR) is a useful and universal way of comparing the relative amounts of signal and noise for any electronic system; high ratios will have very little visible noise whereas the opposite is true for low ratios. The sequence of images below show a camera producing a very noisy picture of the word "signal" against a smooth background. The resulting image is shown along with an enlarged 3-D representation depicting the signal above the background noise.

Excessive noise exposure is the most common cause of hearing loss. Yes, noise can be dangerous. If it is loud enough and lasts long enough, it can damage your hearing. The damage caused by noise, called sensorineural hearing loss or nerve deafness , can be caused by several factors other than noise, but noise-induced hearing loss is different in one important way, it can be reduced or prevented altogether. How Does the Ear Work? The ear has three main parts: the outer, middle, and inner ear. The outer ear (the part you can see) opens into the ear canal . The eardrum separates the ear canal from the middle ear. Small bones in the middle ear help transfer sound to the inner ear. The inner ear contains the auditory (hearing) nerve, which leads to the brain.

Signal + Noise
Signal + noise. All Models Are False, Some Are Useful. 20 October 2005. Perils of the Lotterazi? So you won the Powerball last night? Congratulations.
http://signalplusnoise.com/

Extractions: All Models Are False, Some Are Useful So you won the Powerball last night? Congratulations. You had a little scare there, eh, when you couldn't find that ticket? Not much fun rooting through the laundry pile, through all those papers in the dining room, through last week's garbage. Peew. But it's over now. What's always bothered me more is that when you win, you're so exposed. Having $100 million dumped in your lap is fine. There might be some adjustments to make. It could even cause some problems. (Porsche? Ferrari? Porsche? Ferrari?) All that's manageable. But now dump $100 million in your lap and tell everyone else about it. That changes everything. Here, think about it this way. Your kids walk to and from school everyday, right? Are you going to continue that? And what will you be thinking when they're late from some get-together with friends? Or when you're down by that fishing hole in the middle of nowhere and you hear a twig crack in the woods? See what I mean. Paranoid? Maybe. I'm not saying anything's likely, but you just don't know, do you. Unless you live in Delaware or North Dakota, anyone can find out where you live and how much you have. They already know what you look like. The rest isn't that hard. But you'll probably want to move anyway. It's a great neighborhood, I agree, but you've been here, what, fifteen years? You can do better now. Something new.

Extractions: Change text size: S M L Home ... Hearing, Ear Infections, and Deafness Noise-Induced Hearing Loss On this page: Scientists once believed that the pure force of vibrations from loud sounds caused the damage to hair cells. Instead, recent studies have shown that exposure to harmful noise triggers the formation of molecules inside the ear that can damage or kill hair cells. Top The loudness of sound is measured in units called decibels. For example, the humming of a refrigerator is 40 decibels, normal conversation is approximately 60 decibels, and city traffic noise can be 85 decibels. Sources of noise that can cause NIHL include motorcycles, firecrackers, and small firearms, all emitting sounds from 120 to 150 decibels. Long or repeated exposure to sounds at or above 85 decibels can cause hearing loss. The louder the sound, the shorter the time period before NIHL can occur. Sounds of less than 75 decibels, even after long exposure, are unlikely to cause hearing loss. Top What are the effects of NIHL?
