This invention relates to mobile devices. In particular it relates to the connection or coupling arrangements for mobile devices whereby power or network connectivity is provided to the mobile devices.
Mobile devices such as notebook computers, personal digital assistants, mobile telephones, pagers etc. require periodic recharging, which generally involves connecting the mobile device to a charging unit which draws power from a wall socket.
Generally, electrical interconnection between the mobile device and the charging unit is achieved by a pin arrangement, which requires accurate alignment of electrical contact pins before charging can take place. Thus, the mobile device has to be held in a fixed spatial relationship to the charging device while charging takes place. This restricts the mobility, and thus the utility of the mobile device while charging takes place.
In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the invention can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to avoid obscuring the invention.
Reference in this specification to "one case" or "a case" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the case is included in at least one case of the invention. The appearances of the phrase "in one case" in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same case, nor are separate or alternative cases mutually exclusive of other cases. Moreover, various features are described which may be exhibited by some cases and not by others. Similarly, various requirements are described which may be requirements for some cases but not other cases.
In one case, the invention provides an electrical coupling system ("CS") that allows the closing of an electrical circuit between two bodies, each with a surface that contains a conductive area. The CS provides three degrees of freedom between the two surfaces. The first degree comprises a linear movement along an X axis of an XY plane that is essentially co-planar to the larger of the bodies. The third degree comprises a rotation around a Z axis that is perpendicular to the XY plane In some cases, free positioning contacts may include telescopic action in the Z axis direction (not shown).
In one instance, the CS 10 may be used to provide power to notebook computers or other mobile devices by allowing the mobile devices to be placed freely on an energizing desktop or other surface which forms part of the base unit. In this instance, the desktop or other surface forms the conductive area 12 of the CS 10 and a bottom of the mobile device acts as the conductive area 14. A power supply is connected to the conductive area 12 of the desk or surface (such as a desk pad, writing pad, etc.) and can close an electrical circuit with the conductive area 14 of the mobile device placed thereupon, thus allowing e.g. a charging or power circuit of the mobile device to be energized independently of an XY, or angular position of the mobile device on the desk top or other surface.
When the conductive areas 12, 14 are brought into contact (typically the conductive area 14 is placed on top of the conductive area 12) the relative position can be expressed as a tuple of three numbers [X, Y, G] called "relative placement" or "placement" in short. The X and Y values denote the linear displacement between the centers of the conductive areas 12, 14 relative to the XY coordinate system. The G value denotes the relative radial angle in degrees between the conductive areas 12, 14, as projected onto the XY plane with some arbitrary relative rotation considered to have a rotation of zero degrees.
A placement is said to be "supported" or "active" if a closed electrical circuit can be formed between the base unit and the adaptor unit through electrical contacts on or adjacent conductive areas 12, 14, respectively. In one case, a set of active placements forms a continuous range without gaps. In other words, when the conductive area 14 rests on the conductive area 12, a placement is guaranteed to be active regardless of the relative position of the conductive area 14 and the conductive area 12.
When the above conditions are met when, a two wire electrical circuit can be formed between the base unit and the adaptor units using contacts A1-B1 as one lead and contact A1-B2 as the other lead. In some cases, where multi-phase power is required, for each placement more than two contacts (for example three contacts) of the base limit may make contact with corresponding contacts of the adaptor unit to enable multi-phase power transmission between the base unit and the adaptor unit.
The routing of current to the pairs of contacts for each active placement can be done in many ways. In some cases, a sensing circuit detects a signal that is asserted by the adaptor unit contacts when they come into contact with the base unit contacts. The sensing circuit uses this information to activate the base unit contacts that are touched by the adaptor unit contacts. In other cases, the current can be redirected to the contacts by sensing the relative position of the conductive surfaces 12 and 14. In other cases, the base unit can switch power to a sequence of pairs of base unit contacts until it senses that the circuit is closed with the mobile device. In other cases, the current routing can be done by mechanical switches that are activated by the conductive areas 12, 14 based on their relative positions.
In the example shown in
In the example of
In order to control power application to a multi-contact coupling system, preferably in idle state, base contacts B1 and B2 are not energized. When a load is connected to the base contacts B1 and B2, a sensing unit in the base unit detects the load and switches power to the contacts B1 and B2 based on information and properties of the load. In one case, the power is of a predefined voltage and polarity, or frequency. In some cases, the sensing unit may sense various parameters such as operational status, identification, and power requirements from the load and perform authentication, authorization and compatibility checks before providing power to contacts B1 and B2 using the required voltage and polarity. In yet other cases, the base or charging unit may include a surface with a plurality of exposed contacts and may be configured to supply power to multiple loads, each connected to a further set of contacts and having different voltage characteristics. In some cases, the charging unit will provide protection against short circuits and overloads when contacts of the charging unit are connected, thus providing shock protection when exposed contacts of the charging unit are touched when an electrical load is not present.
The power supply 36 receives power from a standard household current supply, but in some cases may also use other sources, such as generators, solar panels, batteries, fuel cells, etc. each separately, or in any combination. In the current art, contacts of a power supply generally provide voltage in a preset voltage, frequency and polarity, independently of an actual load 50 attached to the power supply 36. In the present case, the power supply 36 detects when, where, and how electrical load 50 is connected to the power contacts 42-48 and may sense information such as identification, product type, manufacturer, polarity power requirements, and other parameters and properties of the load and the connection type required. The base unit uses this information to connect the power supply 36 to the electrical load 50. Thus, in accordance with aspects of the present invention, authentication and compatibility checks may be performed before providing power to an electrical load. Further a power supply may be adapted in terms of voltage, polarity and frequency to the needs of a specific electrical load, thus improving safety by avoiding exposed power connectors when no load is attached, and also providing the ability to power a plurality of electrical loads at the same time, each connected to an arbitrary set of contacts and receiving a different voltage. The exchange and negotiation of information between the electrical load 50 and the power supply 36 is symbolized by arrows 54 and 56 in
Referring now to
The power supply system 60 includes a voltage regulator 62 connected via electrical lines 64 to a current supply which may be a household current supply or any of the other sources mentioned above. A sensing unit 66 is connected via a voltage control line 68 to the voltage regulator 62 and via sensing lines 72 and 74 to power contacts C1 and C2, respectively. The contacts C1 and C2 are electrically connected to a mobile device, for example, a notebook computer 76 which includes an electrical load 78 and an identification load 80. In use, the sensing unit 66 senses the identification load 80 and in particular information such as identification, product type, manufacturer, polarity power requirements and other parameters and properties associated with the electrical load 78. This information is used to control voltage regulator 62 to supply power in the correct voltage, polarity, frequency etc. to electrical load 78 via a switching arrangement 82. As mentioned above, the power supply arrangement 60 generally comprises more than just the power contacts C1 and C2 and thus, during a first stage, the sensing unit 66 scans for the presence of more than one electrical load 78 connected to the power contacts of the power supply 60. After scanning, the sensing unit 66 sends a switch control signal 84 to the switching arrangement 82 to open and close the necessary switches in order to supply power to only those power contacts that have electrical loads connected thereto. The switches used during scanning for the presence of an electrical load may be combined or may be separate from polarity and voltage switches of the switching arrangement 82. Further, advanced semiconductors may be used instead of simple mechanical or relay type switches which are indicated in
As noted above, the voltage and polarity of the power that is supplied to contacts C1 and C2 are automatically adjusted by sensing unit 66 to match the requirements of load 78. Thus, when two contacts of the load 78 are connected to contacts of the power supply arrangement 60, the sensing unit 66 detects the unique identifier (ID) (represented as identification load 80) of the load 78 through the sensing lines 72 and 74 and uses this ID to determine the voltage, current and polarity requirements of the load 78. If the voltage and the current requirements are in the range supported by the power supply, the sensing unit 66 sends a signal to the switch arrangement 82 to power a source in the right polarity and also sends a signal to voltage regulator 62 to set the required voltage. The sensing is done by applying a minimal, non-destructive sensing voltage or pattern, and observing responses of the identification load or element 80. The ID element 80 may be a simple resistor, that is read with a very low voltage below the activation of the normally non-linear response of the electrical or device load 78. In some cases, the ID element 80 may be a diode, or a resistor and a diode combination, or any passive or active circuit, including conductors and capacitors etc. that can be used to convey the presence and parameters associated with load 78. In some cases, RFID (radio frequency Identity) devices (not shown) may be used for probing without electricity.
In yet other cases, a digital ID may be used, and read, with a voltage that is below the active region of the load, or in some cases the adaptor unit may have intelligence to disconnect the load 78 until it establishes a connection or gets power from the base unit. This may be useful, for example, for resistive loads.
When the load 78 is disconnected from the contacts C1 and C2, the sensing unit 66 detects that the device bearing the ID element 80 is not connected to the power supply and turns off the switching arrangement 82, thereby disconnecting the power from the contact C1 and C2. In some cases, the base unit may disconnect based on a sensing of a mobile device current usage passage.
The above described power provisioning system may be combined with other elements to form a complete system that allows a user more freedom when using a notebook computer, for example, at a desk or similar environment, such as a home office, a hotel, an office, or even at a kiosk at an airport or other public place.
In one case, the desk mat 102 includes a conductive plastic that may be applied in a thin layer on top of a metallic conductor interleaved with non-conductive material and surrounded by conductive plastic and metal. In other cases, color metallic areas may be silk screened onto mat 102, leaving sufficient openings for contacts. In yet other cases, acidic etchings into a metal substrate may create openings to deposit colored resins, in a process similar to the anodizing of aluminum. In yet other cases, chrome-plated or nickel-finished round metal contacts may be embedded in a rubber mat. All of the above approaches can be used to make a desk mat product that is visually appealing to consumers, and functions as a base for a charging or power unit as described above.
As can be seen in
Also shown in
In some cases, the adaptor unit 118 may be integrally formed with the notebook computer, or in other cases, it may more specifically integrated with a battery unit or an enclosure for a battery unit, hence requiring a special cable or attachment.
Also, in a case in which the cable 126 is included, a convenient recepticle may be offered, so that the user does not have to unplug the adaptor unit in case of using a regular charger with a base. In other cases, the adaptor unit may be electrically disconnected, so as to avoid hazards by exposing live contacts.
As can be seen in
It is to be appreciated that many variations are possible without departing from the spirit of the novel art of this disclosure. For example, contacts 120, 122 and 124 of the adaptor unit 118 may be round as opposed to being square and may have dimensions that match those of the notebook base section 114, rather than being scaled to a functional minimal size. In other cases, adaptor unit 118 may connect to a docking connector for notebook computer 112, as opposed to using a power cord arrangement. In one case, adaptor unit 118 may be integrated into the standard enclosure of a notebook, thus eliminating a need for a separate, add on device.
Desk mat 102 may also have many variations. In one case desk mat 102 may be used in conjunction with a standard power supply provided by a notebook manufacturer and may contain by itself only the sensing and switching functionality, rather than the full power supply.
In yet other cases, the system may be used to transmit data over the established electrical connections, as opposed to just power. This may be achieved either by using additional contacts, or by modulating signals onto the existing power leads and adding a filter (i.e. inductor/capacitor) to separate DC supply from high speed data signals such as Ethernet signals etc. In such cases, an Ethernet port may be offered in both a desk mat 102 and a cable on adaptor unit 118. Other network standards besides Ethernet may also be supported, as desired or required. In some cases, wireless methods may be used for the data transmissions. These methods include but are not limited to optical methods including infrared (IR), inductive coupling, capacitive coupling, or radio frequency with or without modulation. Some cases may include virtual docking connections or regular local area network connections, or both.
Many variations may be realized by shifting the partitioning or integration of features among various elements of the system described herein. In some cases, for example, a mat 102, may be integrated into the desk 100. In other cases, the mat may be a foldable or rollable mat reduced in size for easy portability, for the convenience of travelers. In some cases, input devices may be integrated into the base charging unit, for example a tablet or a large touch pad, the pad surface may be mouse friendly (both to mechanical and optical mice) or it may be used to power semi-mobile devices such as desk lamps, electrical staplers, etc. Additionally, the desk mat 102 may be of an anti-static material (thus making it safer than using no mat at all). In some cases, extensions may be offered as modules, including making the mat area of the charging power device modular (cutting to order, tiles etc.). In some cases, the base unit provides a standard power and each device/adaptor converts it to the level needed by its respective device.
Also, in some cases some information and sensing is done in the reverse direction (i.e. base to device) and the device also makes some decisions on power switching (for example is this space safe to use In some cases, the contact surface may be made like a fabric (printed or woven), and applied to walls in offices, schools, homes, stores etc. In yet other cases, the sensing or interrogation before releasing power may be used in existing building wiring, controlling outlets. Thus, only an authorized device can draw power. This may have important benefits such as improving safety (e.g. for children), or for security against power theft in public or semipublic places, or avoiding overload to a back-up network. In a hospital, for instance, non-essential units accidentally plugged in to an emergency power system would not work without an override. In some cases, the base unit may do power allocation and management, e.g. between multiple devices being powered at the same time. The functionality of the system can be divided in many ways between the pad surface and the device.
The system can also provide for an adapter/device to have more than two contacts and it can do smart power routing/conversion as well. In some implementations, the surface contacts or some of them can be energized or grounded all the time (e.g. the interleaving geometry). In yet other cases, the surface may have only one pair of contacts. In some cases 'handshaking', does not require bi-directional communication or communication at all. Some implementation can use for example simple analog sensing of resistance or diode. Also, in some cases, sensing may entail multiple steps, such as 1. check for diode 2. check resistor and 3. check ID digitally. Each of the steps may use different voltages, and in some cases only one, or two or three may be done. Further, tests may also include DC, AC and modulated probing signals.
The circular areas in
The simplest way to achieve correct connectivity is to use a bridge rectifier to extract the voltage from the FPs 140 and then to use that voltage to drive circuitry (not shown) between adaptor pad 150 and a device (not shown), such as a notebook computer. The circuitry then, using low drop switches (i.e. bipolar solid state switches in parallel to the bridge rectifier), connects the actual contacts of the adaptor pad 150 to the conductors of the notebook charger connector (details not shown).
It will be appreciated by one skilled in the art that depending on the structure of the protrusions or FPs 140A, 140B, their sizes and spacing, the adaptor pad 150 and their contacts 152 to 156 must be such that they cannot short between positive and negative FPs, on the one hand, and that independently of the positioning on the surface, must always be connected to at least one positive and one negative FP.
In yet other situations, a complete rail may surface and depending on the dimensions and distances, the dimensions and distances as well as the geometry of the adaptor pad 150 may change. In some cases, a linear array be better, or a T-shaped, X-shaped, a honeycomb cluster of contacts, or other suitable multi-port connection may be used instead of a adaptor pad 150 having a contact geometry as soon in
Depending on the sizes and geometry, the FPs 140 may in some cases be formed into diamond shapes, covering almost all of the surface of the pad 144, with very tiny gaps for insulation, or may be formed in a honeycomb pattern. In other cases, the FPs 140 may resemble round dots, as shown in
Suitable geometries for the FPs 140 may be obtained by modeling their connectivity using a mathematical model and a computer. In some cases, the design of the FPs 140 on pad 144 may be driven by industrial design concepts.
In some cases, it is preferable to arrange the adaptor pad 150 across the whole surface area of the mobile device, rather than across only a localized portion, thus allowing the weight of the mobile device to be distributed across all contacts 152 to 156, ensuring a better electrical contact, as opposed to having all contacts of the adaptor pad 150 in one corner, which might result in some of them lifting off (unless they are spring loaded or the pad is pivotally mounted). In some cases, the contacts 152 to 156 may be integrated into an enclosure of the mobile device itself, with internal connections.
In some cases, power may always be on the FPs 140 thus not requiring any sensing to be performed. In other cases, only basic short circuit protection may be provided.
A notebook computer 186 includes a matching inductor 188 that may contain some circuitry. A cable 190 couples the inductor 188 to standard charging circuitry of the notebook computer 186. In some cases, the inductor 188 may be integrated into the notebook 186.
When the notebook computer 186 is placed on the pad 170, the motors 180 and 184 (shown only in block form for the sake of simplicity) are activated, for example by a command such as pushing a button or by detection means such as weight detection or other detection means to detect the position of the notebook 186 on the pad 170 based on a location of the inductor 188. A controller, may be embedded in the pad 170, or may be part of a power supply (also not shown) for the pad 170 and is used to send data to a small controller/receiver unit (not shown). In other cases, the controller may be controlled by the notebook 186. By scanning a surface of the pad 170, the controller aided by motors 180 and 184 can detect an area (called a sweet spot port) where optimal or near-optimal coupling between the inductor 172 and inductor 188 may be achieved, which then provides an indication of the relative position of inductor 188 and hence notebook computer 186 on the pad 170.
In some cases, the inductor 188 may send out a homing signal that may be used to track a location of the notebook computer 186 on the pad 170. In other cases, inductor 172 may send out a ping signal and listen for a resulting echo response from inductor 188. In yet other cases, as described below, other sensor type or optical detection can also be used to assist in searching the position of inductor 188 relative to the pad 170.
Once the sweet spot area for inductor 188 has been found, small step wise increments allow for more accurate positioning of the inductor 188 relative to the inductor 172, thus allowing power to be increased once optimal magnetic coupling between inductors 172 and 188 is achieved. If a user were to move notebook computer 186, then the magnetic coupling quality would fall, which could be observed by the adaptive power supply resulting in shutting off power and initiating a new search sequence to align inductors 188 and 172 for the purposes of charging notebook computer 186.
Referring now to
Referring to the notebook computer 200, it will be seen that the notebook computer 200 includes an inductor in a form of a receiver coil 202 which is dimensioned such that when the notebook computer 200 is placed on a surface of the charging pad 192, the inductor 202 encloses several inductors 194 of the charging pad 192. In some cases, the inductors 194 may be provided with electronic switching whereby power to the inductors 194 is switched on by controller 196. However, in other embodiments, no electronic switching of the inductors 194 is provided. Depending on the geometry and configuration of the inductors 194 and the inductor coil 202 power can then be selectively turned on to one or more of the inductors 194, thereby to improve coupling between the inductor coil 202 and the inductors 194 which then function as an emitting coil.
In some cases, the charging pad 204 may be a combination wherein one "wire" is conductive (e.g. ground) and the other is capacitive.
Referring to
According to data obtained by sensors 224, a position of a mobile device on the charging pad 220 may be determined using information such as a weight and footprint of the mobile device. In some cases even a device ID for the mobile device may be used.
In other cases, the piezo-electric sensors may pick up ultrasonic signals emitted by a notebook computer or, in other cases the sensors may ping the notebook computer, which will then respond with an echo giving information about its position and its type.
Alternatively, a camera indicated generally by reference 230 may be used to take a picture of the pad 220 and to monitor ("see") a device's position on the pad 220. For example, image recognition means associated with the camera 230 may recognize a model and type of a mobile device, as well as its orientation and may then instruct an adaptive power supply or one of the non-conductive systems described above, to activate the power accordingly.
In yet another case, a voice recognition system indicated generally by reference numeral 240, may include a microphone 242 connected to it. In this case, a user may simply say, for example "please charge my Sony™ notebook computer" and accordingly, the voice recognition system 240 would instruct the adaptor power supply or a non-conductive charging pad to turn on power.
In yet other cases, radio frequency link with a network, such as an 802.11�type network or a GPS network or any other network, may be used to locate (triangulate) the position of a mobile device and determine whether it is situated on a pad and thereafter to activate the pad (not shown) accordingly. In other cases, a button may be provided on a charging pad itself or on a mobile device to be charged that when activated, for example by pushing, initiates charging, rather than automatic initiation of charging. Such a manual initiation of charging would avoid unintentional charging cycles.
In yet other cases, a pad deploying a conductive surface with opening may be placed above another solid conducting surface, separated by an insulating layer with slightly smaller openings (not shown). Ball-like contacts may be spring loaded and may protrude from an undersurface of a mobile device, such that some of these balls will "land" in the holes and connect to a lower plane carrying one polarity, the others resting on an upper plane, connected to a top layer carrying another polarity. Thus, the situation is created wherein power can be sent up to the mobile device, without having to plug in any connection, while still maintaining freedom to move the device.
In yet other cases, current may be redirected to proper contacts by sensing a pressure exerted by the mobile device on a base unit. Once a mobile is placed on top a surface of the base unit, pressure on the surface determines a location of the mobile device and routes power to the appropriate location.
In yet other cases, current may be redirected to proper contacts by using optical senses. Certain senses embedded in a base unit will detect an optical signal, such as an infrared signal generated by an adaptor unit. Based on a formula dependent on the optical signal, the base unit may then redirect power to the proper contacts. In some cases, the optical signal may be generated at or away from the base unit and thereafter receive the adaptor unit.
In other cases, the adaptor unit may be connected, attached, or integrated into a side of a mobile device. In the case of the adaptor unit being integrated to a side of the mobile device, the adaptor unit would include contacts that connect to corresponding contacts to a base unit. In yet other cases, the adaptor unit may be attached to a prop of the mobile device or to a screen of the mobile device. In such cases, when the lap top screen is fully open power would then be transferred to contacts on a base unit to the adaptor unit on the mobile device.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to specific exemplary embodiments, it will be evident that various modifications and changes can be made to these embodiments without departing from the broader spirit of the invention as set forth in the claims. Accordingly, the specification and the drawings are to be regarded in an illustrative sense rather than in a restrictive sense.

Favre on cadences
Green Bay - A lot of readers have asked about the cadences -- "Blue-18, Green-19," etc. -- that quarterback Brett Favre uses each game. I told you I would ask him when the chance presented itself. I finally had the opportunity on Thursday.
It was literally the second time all season I have seen Favre in the locker room during the session open to the media. We didn't speak for long. Here's what I got:
A lot of readers have been asking about cadences you use, whether they mean anything or if they have some personal significance...
Favre: "Most people use blue, green because it's just....Let me see, what's the best way to explain it. It's more rhythmic. Blue-18 is better than Black-18. A lot of teams use a black or red as a hot. When you hear that, there's an audible coming. And everyone's different. Some people when they say 'On 1,' it's really snapped on 1. Ours is more rhythmic. It's 'Blue-18, Blue-10, set-hut.' It all kind of runs together. I could use lavender is I wanted."
Fans were wondering if you do the same call since, like, Pop Warner or high school...
Favre: "Nah. It was probably...When I got here, under Mike Holmgren, the number you call is the actual defensive front and it even went back to Montana and those guys. It was was 'Blue-34' or 'Blue-43.' And so when I first got here, I had to do that. I don't know why they ever did that, but it was just, I guess, a way to keep the quarterback involved or whatever. The fronts you see nowadays, it would be 'Blue-52-wide-boss' for me. So it's just kind of evolved to 18 or 58. So...."

Today, after more than 50 years, the shoe store has evolved into becoming a network of 44 large-scale shopping centers not only inside Philippines but throughout Asia and lays claim they can three in the world's top shopping centers: the SM City-North EDSA (ranked 3rd), the SM Mall of Asia (ranked 4th) and SM Mega - Mall (ranked 7th), that are all located in the Philippines.

And, although it is not required, it's a good idea if the site is Vet-VIPPS (Veterinary-Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites) accredited.
His company's core business sources are generally contracts for generating projects, that entail customer service relationships and IT services. But once these pharmacies became active around the net, we were holding just about to manage the biggest of challenges through the quarters that should have avoided the degradation of the health care systems. This may make even the simplest tasks difficult and time-consuming. For example, Lederle once captured a sizable portion of the tetracyclinemarket because its brand, Achromycin, contained what it was supposed to contain: exactly 250 mg. The druggist should ask a few questions about your health needs and it's a plus when they ask in regards to the health needs of all your family members members.
Three years later, a storm tore over roof of these establishment, which left all of them with nothing but worthless goods to market. Henry remembers needing to clear the shop's counter, which served as his sleeping place, after helping his father run the store for 12 hours.

It's also wise to make sure which a pharmacy will honor your specific prescription plan to produce insurance billing - and insurance co-pay prices simple. Side effct of lithium include renal toxicity, hypothyrodism, AV block, leukocytosis, tremor, fat gain, cognitive dulling, thirst and polyuria. Although many authors consider amyotrophic lateral sclerosis to be caused by a mixture of genetic and environmental risk factors, up to now the latter are not firmly identified, aside from a higher risk with increasing age. These chemicals like oxytocin, nitric oxide plus a host of hormones which include estrogen and testosterone might be produced at significant levels. As for compensation, pharmacy technicians will make anywhere between $7.
Since Tony personally felt happy by working busily as being a bee to make honey, which in Tony's case was money, he and his family made a decision to work on the busy bee concept. Pharmacy technicians thus certified have to be recertified every couple of years after completing 20 hours of training. The medical care industry is constantly involved with new developments.

Grim Fandango
Publisher: LucasArts
Developer: LucasArts
"The one real problem with Grim Fandango is that the end comes too soon."
- Ron Dulin, GameSpot Review
It is the rarest kind of computer game that not only surprises and impresses those who anticipated its release, but also manages to draw the attention of an audience that would otherwise not pay the genre a moment's notice. Tim Schafer's Grim Fandango is such a case.
Its epic story spans four years, over the course of which a down-on-his-luck afterlife broker must uncover the nature of his corrupt employer and save an innocent woman's soul. The story is serious at its core, drawing on real emotions and plausible motives. Still, Grim Fandango has a remarkable sense of humor, from its visual design inspired by Mexican folklore right down its witty, quotable dialogue and its situational comedy. With a script, musical score, and voice acting worthy of a feature film and an inspired artistic design worthy of display within a gallery, Grim Fandango far exceeds adventure game standards where a half-decent story and a few good puzzles tend to satisfy.
Instead, Grim Fandango approaches perfection on every front. And unlike any other game released this year, Grim Fandango will remain forever a masterpiece and forever a classic; its visuals will not tarnish with age. Its story and its characters will remain delightful and unforgettable. Thus Grim Fandango marks one of the first steps the computer game has ever taken toward maturity and long-term staying power. It is a game accessible to virtually everybody, from its fluid control and invisible interface, to its subtle, often hilarious, and always moving story. Nothing about the game can be written off as merely a technological steppingstone or a transitional, evolutionary design.
Like a first-rate film or work of literature - indeed, like any work of art - Grim Fandango is timeless and destined to be enjoyed not just for months, but forever. Yet unlike any work of art, Grim Fandango invites, even demands, your direct participation, and its finest scenes are those in which you genuinely experience the story through your own intervention. As such, it presents itself as an unlikely yet entirely viable representative of an entirely new artistic medium, one every bit as rich as literature or film, only newer.

Tech firm ditches Rackspace hosting service for 'lack of support'
Cloud sales service company Price & Quote has ditched IT hosting provider Rackspace due to "lack of support and unresponsiveness"
A cloud sales service company, Price & Quote, has ditched its IT hosting provider, Rackspace, because of "lack of support and unresponsiveness".
It was hard to get the level of support that Price & Quote needed, according to Seamus Devine, co-founder and managing director of Price & Quote, which opted for Rackspace's service in September 2012.
Defining the datacentre needs of 21st century enterprises
A collection of our most popular articles on datacentre management, including: Cloud vs. Colocation: Why both make sense for the enterprise right now; AWS at 10: How the cloud giant shook up enterprise IT and Life on the edge: The benefits of using micro datacenters

"The issue was that Rackspace was too big for us. We weren't getting the one-to-one service that a startup such as ourselves needed," said Devine.
Price & Quote provides cloud-based sales engine software to its customers. The nature of the business means that a fast and reliable IT service is critical to its business, according to Devine.
"As a new business, it was crucial to support our goal by working with an IT provider that could deliver high levels of support and offer the expertise and guidance on the services we needed to build a successful business," Devine said.
"Rackspace lacked that understanding. The slow response time we were experiencing was costing us time and money," he added.
The company then started looking at other service providers, but was concerned that it might experience the same level of lowered service.
IT security was high on the company's wish list from a service provider. "As a new company with a small IT team, we simply cannot afford to experience any downtime or be vulnerable to possible attacks," Devine said.
The company switched to another hosting provider, ServerSpace, last month. ServerSpace is hosting the company's software environment, development environment, backup and DDoS security.
"Issues such as security and backup should be dealt with in the first instance. Protecting organisations from cyber attacks, such as DDoS, is vital for businesses," said Tim Pat Dufficy, managing director of ServerSpace.
By switching to fully managed services, Price & Quote has saved costs, Devine said.
Rackspace provides IT hosting, managed services and cloud services to customers including Transport for London, Virgin Trains, the MoD, Domino's Pizza and Go Compare, among others.
Update – 21 July 2013
Rackspace initially declined to comment but has subsequently provided further information.
Its spokesperson said: "Providing Fanatical Support is fundamental to our business, and we have hundreds of thousands of customers around the world - of all shapes and sizes, including SMEs and startups.
"The customer was initially on a managed account and downgraded to core cloud as they indicated that they didn't need technical support."
Rackspace Managed Cloud customers have access to technical support and application-level support, in addition to cloud infrastructure support. Managed Cloud also offers additional monitoring capabilities. Meanwhile, Rackspace Core Cloud offers access to its full range of open cloud products but the level of support provided relates to troubleshooting and management of users' Rackspace cloud infrastructure only.
"Price and Quote asked that we downgrade their service based on the need to reduce their costs rather than any performance issues," the spokesperson added.

Democratic U.S. Rep. and Senate hopeful Edward Markey said Thursday that during his lengthy congressional career, he has always made a point to work across the aisle to draw support for pending bills, and to address any concerns presented by colleagues from different schools of thought.
During an editorial board meeting with The Republican, Markey, who is competing with Democratic U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch in the Senate primary, cited instances which demonstrate his ability to bridge the partisan divide in Washington, beginning with the telecommunications laws he pioneered in the 1990s.
"On telecommunications laws, I worked to ensure that all of the laws were done in a bipartisan fashion," Markey said. "I ensured that a consensus would be built on those issues and the Republicans in positions of leadership all have their names on the bills with me."
In a previous interview, Markey cited the 1996 Telecommunications Act, which he co-authored, as one of his proudest achievements. That bill passed the House in a 414-16 vote, following a revision by the U.S. Senate.
Markey also cited other areas of the law in which he has rallied Republican support as credentials for becoming a senator.
"On Alzheimer's (disease) research, I'm the co-founder of the Alzheimer's caucus and I've partnered with (Congressman) Christopher Smith of New Jersey, who is a Republican. We work together on this to ensure Alzheimer's funding is given proper attention," Markey said.
"Independence at Home is one of my provisions inside the Affordable care Act that helps people at home who have Alzheimer's, Parkinson's (disease) or other chronic diseases. It (aims) to keep people in their homes and save upwards of $30 billion to the health care system and make the patient and their family happier. That was a bipartisan effort."
A recent poll conducted by the Western New England University Polling Institute for The Republican/MassLive.com and CBS-3 Springfield concluded that Markey is leading over Lynch in the Democratic primary by a 10-point margin, although Lynch fares better against a Republican in hypothetical general election match-ups.
GOP political newcomer Gabriel Gomez has a slight lead over Michael Sullivan, according to the poll, but both Republicans were holding a significant lead over Republican State Rep. Daniel Winslow. But since the sample size for likely Republican primary voters was small, the pollster cautioned about drawing hard-line conclusions based on its findings.
The primary election is scheduled for April 30 with the general election coming on June 25.

Couple charged in death of infant
RIPLEY – A Parkersburg couple were arrested this week on charges relating to the death of their infant son in Jackson County.
Jessica and Shawn Souther were arrested Monday by Marietta police in Marietta on outstanding warrants from Jackson County charging them with child neglect resulting in death, said Jackson County Chief Deputy H. Saber.
The couple waived extradition and were returned to Jackson County, Saber said.
The couple's 21-month-old son was ejected from a vehicle during an Aug. 20 accident on I-77 near Kenna.
Saber said Jessica, 31, was driving while Shawn, 39, was a passenger. Although the child was in a child safety seat, it is believed the seat wasn't properly buckled in the vehicle, officials said.
The couple were placed in the South Central Regional Jail. They are both listed as being imprisoned as pre-trial felons.
They are being held on $250,000 bond each.

I've been here a few times and am always amazed at the diversity of the park! You can go from over 100 feet before sea level to over 5000 in a matter of a half hour drive! I really wanted to see the sailing stones at the playa but you basically have to rent a vehicle and its a 4+ hour drive one way which makes it nearly impossible unfortunately. Oh.. Also be careful in the summer cause it can get HOT!! like 120 degrees hot!

Soda makers see sales go down the drain
By CANDICE CHOI
Associated Press
NEW YORK — It seems that not even Beyonce or new, lower-calorie options can convince Americans to drink more soda.
Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo Inc. and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. all sold less soda in the second quarter in North America, dashing hopes for the moment that splashy new marketing and different sweetener mixes could get drinkers back.
Coca-Cola Co. said it sold 4 percent less soda in North America, while PepsiCo Inc. simply said its decline for the region was in the "mid-single digits." Dr Pepper sold 3 percent less of the fizzy drinks.
Coca-Cola, based in Atlanta, blamed the sluggish sales on a cold, wet spring. But the declines continue a years-long trend. According to the industry tracker Beverage Digest, per capita soda consumption in the U.S. has been slipping steadily since 1998 amid concerns that sugary drinks fuel weight gain.
Another problem is that people now have so many more choices when it comes to drinks. An endless array of bottled waters, teas of many colors, even energy shots and "relaxation" drinks are vying for the attention of the thirsty, with store coolers getting more crowded all the time.
The trend "won't change and will probably get worse without a major breakthrough in new sweeteners," said John Sicher, editor and publisher of trade publication Beverage Digest.
PepsiCo's decline for the quarter came despite its stepped-up marketing over the past year; the company signed pop star Beyonce to star in its ads and signed a multiyear deal to sponsor the Super Bowl halftime show. The company also introduced a mid-calorie soda called Pepsi Next to win back people who've quit soda because they don't like the calories in regular or the taste of diet.
Dr Pepper has also introduced a lineup of 10-calorie sodas, starting with Dr Pepper Ten. The idea is that they have just enough high-fructose corn syrup to taste better than diet. But the new drinks apparently aren't convincing enough people to pick up soda again.
Coke has even taken on the question of obesity head-on in TV commercials, hoping to convince people that physical activity can let them enjoy some guilt-free refreshment.
To make up for the declines in the meantime, the industry is relying on bottled waters, teas, sports drinks and other beverages to boost sales. They're also looking overseas to emerging markets, where middle-class populations are growing and there's a greater potential to sell them more drinks.
Still, the North American soda market remains crucial for Coke, Pepsi and Dr Pepper. Their executives have steadfastly expressed optimism that a yet-to-be developed soda made with a natural, low-calorie sweetener can help turn around the soda slide.
PepsiCo has said its work on a sweetener mix could potentially "alter the trajectory of our cola business in a meaningful way." But it has yet to provide any more details.

UBS systems detected $2bn rogue trader fraud, admits CEO Sergio Ermotti

UBS interim CEO Sergio Ermotti has admitted systems in the banks IT infrastructure did detect the unauthorised trading activities of the rogue trader who cost UBS over $2bn.

In an internal memo, Sergio Ermotti also reveals nothing was done about the warning signals.
Last month, Akweku Adoboli, a 31-year old trader in London, was arrested as UBS announced a rogue trader had cost the bank sizable losses.
In the memo, seen by the Wall Street Journal, Ermotti admitted the bank's internal systems had detected the unauthorised activity. Ermotti said the bank failed to take action.
"We have to be straight with ourselves. In no circumstances should something like this ever occur. The fact that it did is evidence of a failure to exercise appropriate controls. Our internal investigation indicates that risk and operational systems did detect unauthorised or unexplained activity, but this was not sufficiently investigated nor was appropriate action taken to ensure existing controls were enforced," wrote Ermotti.
