I drew some simple swags and garlands, with hanging decorations and the kids filled in the blanks. I forgot to take many pictures of this while they were up, but if you imagine your windows like blackboards, you can get lots of inspiration from Pinterest.
I really wanted to make her windows pop since her room defines what the treehouse is all about- trees! She has one of the best views of the house and to highlight that feature and add some definition to the room, the plan was to frame out the windows using wood and trim. This was a simple process, although her windows were slightly uneven and we had to make some key adjustments due to the sloping of the window frames. After we nailed the boards in the wall, caulked, and painted, the windows looked a thousand times better.
Thank you for responding, I was previously looking for those samples. I'm using the most recent windows SDKs but i did not see iDirectShow samples in my sdk, so im guessing i have the former. Is it possible to see the VMR-9 example somewhere online?
I see this: -classic-samples/tree/master/Samples/Win7Samples/multimedia/directshow/vmr9
for Windows 7, but im worried if these tools are depreciated

Made of the highest quality ingredients, in accordance with international animal welfare standards, we use only human-grade water buffalo out of India that are 100% grass fed, free range, grain free and are humanely raised without the use of added antibiotics or hormones. Each treat and chew is then coated in sustainably-harvested honey for a product that is as sweet to the taste as it is strong in sustainability.
Adams began experimenting with chicle, but when his work failed to yield the desired results, Santa Anna abandoned the project. Adams eventually realized that rather than trying to create a rubber alternative, he could use chicle to produce a better type of chewing gum. He formed a company that by the late 1880s, according to Mathews, was making gum sold across the country. Chicle, imported to the United States from Mexico and Central America, served as the main ingredient in chewing gum until most manufacturers replaced it with synthetic ingredients by the mid-1900s.
In the 20th century, chewing gum made William Wrigley Jr. one of the wealthiest men in America. Wrigley started out as a soap salesman in his native Philadelphia. After moving to Chicago in 1891, he began offering store owners incentives to stock his products, such as free cans of baking powder with every order. When the baking powder proved a bigger hit than the soap, Wrigley sold that instead and added in free packs of chewing gum as a promotion.
The competition also played a role in the development of bubble gum. Frank Fleer, whose company had made chewing gum since around 1885, wanted something different from his rivals and spent years working on a product that could be blown into bubbles. In 1906, he concocted a bubble gum he called Blibber-Blubber, but it proved to be too sticky. In 1928, a Fleer employee named Walter Diemer finally devised a successful formula for the first commercial bubble gum, dubbed Dubble Bubble.
Sealing any windows and doors, as well as gaps in the walls, with silicone can be an excellent preventative measure for rodents. When silicone is fully cured, the sealant becomes too hard for rodents to effectively chew through.
Silicone sealant can effectively deal with your basement pests by creating a hard but flexible seal for your basement windows. Silicone maintains its flexibility once cured, allowing it to be an effective sealant for windows while still offering mobility. Making silicone sealant part of your Fall prep list can help to prepare for the harsher weather, as well as keep unwanted guests out.
The last thing any homeowner wants is to find rats, mice, or red squirrels poking their heads out of the walls of your home. Using silicone sealant can help to keep these nasty pests out of your home. Rats and mice have teeth that are perfect for chewing through materials like wood and plastic. This makes them a significant headache in your home or garage.
Silicone, once cured, is a hard material that most squirrels and mice are unable to chew through. Sealing gaps and cracks with silicone sealant can help keep rats from sinking their pesky sets of teeth into the materials of your home and keep their destructive habits away from your belongings.
Gaps in doors and windows are also popular spots for silicone sealant due to its durability and flexibility once cured. Food Grade 100% RTV Silicone Sealant is safe to use in kitchens and dining rooms and rated as safe for food contact once cured.
Can rats and mice chew through silicone? No, they cannot, and this is why silicone is such a popular solution for protecting homes against pest problems. Silicone sealants work to prevent destructive wildlife like rats, ground squirrels, and mice from gnawing their way through gaps in your walls and doors. Silicones serve as excellent protection against pests not only indoors but outdoors as well, with silicone sealant typically being water-resistant and able to withstand rain and snow, making it a popular choice for decks and patios.
Some silicone sealants also contain chemicals that can prevent other pests from gnawing their way into your home, like cockroaches and ants. You can also apply boric acid as a powder to your sealants to prevent pests from attempting to chew their way through.
Left: 20 AO image frames, each measuring 4 4, are acquired at the coordinates marked by the black dots, to cover the area of retina shown in red. Areas of overlap between AO frames are depicted by the darker shades of red. The 12 loci studied here are shown by the blue boxes. Center: For analysis of single AO frames, the internal target in the AO device is set at each of the 12 coordinates of interest, and the sampling windows are extracted from the center of each AO frame. Right: In the ideal situation, the position of a gaze-directed single AO frame exactly matches its retinal location relative to the anatomical fovea (top). It is possible that the positon of the preferred retinal locus (blue dot) does not match the position of the anatomical fovea (yellow dot), so that the actual position of the single AO frame is translated relative to the intended coordinates being studied.
Five overlapping sampling windows of 50 50 μm located at the center of each of the 12 gaze-directed single AO images were cropped for automated cone counting (Fig. 2). These sampling windows underwent further image processing to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio according to methods described previously,7 and the number of cones was counted using automated custom software based on the circle Hough transform, as described previously by our group.7
The anatomical foveal center is identified as that position on the OCT volume scan at which the minimum retinal thickness occurs (A). The anatomical fovea then is marked on the NIR fundus image (B) and the AO montage is overlaid on the marked fundus image. A grid consisting of 1 1 squares is superimposed onto the final image to identify the retinal loci of interest relative to the fovea (C). Five sampling windows are extracted from each retinal locus and the images are enhanced before being analyzed (D).
We demonstrated wide limits of agreement between cone densities derived from gaze-directed single AO images and field projection on wide-field AO montage. Our data show a coefficient of variation (SD/mean) of around 10% in comparing the two sampling methods. There are a number of possible explanations for this. The first is misalignment between the retinal loci determined by gaze-direction and field projection on an AO montage. This is due to difference in position of the preferred retinal locus and the anatomic fovea as discussed above. However, our data and that of others24 would suggest that the error in cone density measurement should not be as large as that shown by the wide limits of agreement because we only analyzed retinal loci between 3 and 7 where the gradient of change in cone density is only approximately 900 cones/mm2 per degree of eccentricity (approximately 5% change) and most of the misalignment between the two methods was less than 1.25 The second explanation is variable cone visualization due to differences in image quality of the cropped sampling window derived from single AO images and the wide-field AO montage. Sampling windows from the latter would have been derived from two or more overlapping single AO images because these were taken at 1 to 2 apart. The optical Stiles Crawford effect has been shown to affect visualization of cones in AO images by way of changing the position at which the camera is focused over the pupil, so that previously dark spots on an AO frame become bright spots on subsequent AO frames when the camera is aligned at different positions over the pupil.26 Thus, by overlapping two or more single AO images, a greater number of cone photoreceptors may be visualized as the optically silent nonwave guiding cones in one single AO frame becomes wave-guiding cones in another single AO image taken at slightly different gaze angles. This could account for the tendency for images obtained from sampling windows within the wide-field AO montage to show overall higher cone densities than those from single AO images at most of the study loci. An alternative explanation for this trend is that instead of improved visualization of cones, wide-field AO montage formed by potentially inaccurate stitching of overlapping single AO frames can result in a single cone appearing as two very closely spaced adjacent cones, thus resulting in overestimation of cone density. In certain individuals, the cone count from single AO images exceeded that from wide-field AO montage. This may occur if two separate cones are fused into a single cone during the process of imaging stitching. Another reason for reduced cone count in the wide-field AO montage is the introduction of noise into the montage by stitching together a poor quality single AO image with a good quality single AO image resulting in overall reduced cone visualization. This may contribute to poor image quality in sampling windows. It has been noted previously that image quality within an AO montage created by manual stitching of AO-SLO images may vary between different portions of the montage due to technical factors.27 The open source MosaicJ montaging software that we use in our dataset assigns a weighted contribution from each tile in regions of overlap.28 The effect of this is demonstrated across six randomly chosen subjects in Supplementary Figure S2. In cases where the windows from each tile are of similar image quality, the window from the montage is of comparable contrast. In some cases, the windows from the contributing tiles are of varying quality, resulting in degradation of the quality of the window obtained from the montage versus that from the best tile. We did find a trend of a higher percentage of subjects (62% compared to 52%) with adequate sampling window quality at all 12 study loci when single AO frames were used for deriving cone densities but this was not statistically significant.
