"It is quite a three-pipe problem" (All Pics: Anglophenia)
There are many architectural and artistic tributes to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Sherlock Holmes. The tiles on the wall of Baker Street Tube station show a profile of the detective complete with deerstalker and pipe, for example, and there's a statue of Holmes up on the pavement outside.
But in Plymouth, down in the South West of England, there's a very particular tribute to Sherlock and his creator, and it's really subtle. You could walk all over it and not even realize it.
The full story begins in 1882, some five years before the publication of the first Sherlock Holmes story. In No.1 Durnford Street, Plymouth, a Scottish doctor named Arthur Conan Doyle has just set up his practice with a friend from medical school, George Turnavine Budd. However, almost as soon as their doors have been thrown open, both men find it increasingly difficult to work together, and it's not long before Arthur has left for Southsea, near Portsmouth, taking his ideas for a hawkish crime-solver and his solid partner with him.
In tribute to his brief tenancy, Plymouth council embedded a series of quotations from the Sherlock Holmes stories into the sidewalk of Durnford Street. These sit just outside people's houses, in a nondescript road near the harbor. Not the kind of place one would expect to happen across anything more notable than a decent chip shop and a couple of aggressive seagulls.
But look, what's this on the floor? Notable quotes! That's what:
"The wages of sin, Watson, the wages of sin."
"Interesting, though elementary."
"They were the footprints of a gigantic hound!"
"Any truth is better than indefinite doubt."
"You mean well, Watson, shall I demonstrate your own ignorance?"
"There is but one step from the grotesque to the horrible."
"There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact."
"Malingering is a subject upon which I have sometimes thought of writing a monograph."
"Might I trouble you to open the window, for chloroform vapour does not help the palate."
"Good, Watson! You always keep us flat-footed on the ground."
"My dear fellow, you must trust me implicitly and do exactly what I tell you."
"There is no part of the body which varies so much as the human ear."
"It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data."
"There is nothing so unnatural as the commonplace."
"Now, Watson, the fair sex is your department."
"You know my method, it is founded upon the observation of trifles."
"She is the fairest thing under a bonnet on this planet."
"Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent."
And, embedded on the front steps of one house, this plaque:
"Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 1859-1930In 1882 Conan Doyle practised medicine at No.1 Dumford Street. Unfortunately the relationship with his practice partner was an unhappy one and ended with Conan Doyle moving to Southsea. During his spare time from the medical profession, he became more involved in his writings. "A Study Of Scarlet," the first of 68 stories featuring Sherlock Holmes, appeared in 1887. Conan Doyle's time in Devon undoubtedly inspired his later literary work, "The Hound of the Baskervilles." A Holmes cult arose and still flourishes today."
Sadly No.1 Durnford Street did not survive the 20th Century, but here's a part of the road that Sir Arthur may well have found familiar.

India's security force was definitely caught off guard, however, you need to understand that there were people taken hostages in all the three areas, due to which the response had to be measured. Still, I agree that we fared pretty badly in this real test of effectiveness.
Also, you mentioned below India's pointing fingers towards Pakistan - how can you infer that there isn't enough evidence with India to confirm the same? Have some patience and I am sure things will become clearer.
It seems that you spoke about all the good things India has - "India can go to the moon, have the first rate navy, plenty of Nuclear warheads" to bring out the contrast in the response of security forces. Well, maybe you should look at how your own country is performing - each one has an Achilees' heel. I am sure your's does as well.
Repeated terrorist attacks on unsuspected targets in India and killing sensely innocent people will have very dangerous repercussions. The foundation of communal peace and harmony will be weakened and may ultimately collapse. If that is the objectives of the terrorists the time has come to be very vigilant not only for India but for Pakistan too. The innocent people will become the victims of conglagration in the consequences terrorists' brutalities as evidenced in Mumbai. The patience, tolerance and fellow-feeling, I am afraid, will yield vast room to hatred, antagomism and anger, which are palpable all over India.
It is high time to act fast with a view to frustrating all desings of terrorists' misdaventures. There is no time for complacense over the dangerous activities of the foot soldiers of Islamists. They need to be eliminated effectively by applying all power in command of all who value human civilization, happiness and prosperity.
A. K. Biswas
The attacks in Mumbai expose the incompetence of the security services in India. How do police officers with sticks stop people with automatic weapons?The widespread coverage of the attacks in the international media would not have happened if a handful of Westerners had not been caught out.India and other South Asian countries have to choose from the following:1. Continue in the current path and squander their futures by having conflicts and wars while the vast majority of the people remain poor and backward; or2. Learn from European history that wars lead to bankruptcy and focus instead on economic development and co-operation.
I saw some of the American campus mall shooting style in it too but in grand scale.What bothers me is that the India's security force was badly caught off guard. Not only the head of the operation got himself killed by these 10 youth, but what take them so long to get the situation under control? They had to use their best whole army force to fight off these 10 youth. It says one word - humiliation. I mean come on, you India can go to the moon, have the first rate navy, plenty of Nuclear warheads..... but when the time comes, you give a D rate slow chaotic performance. The only one thing the Indian government is pretty quick is to point fingers at it's neighbor's involvement.
All Muslims are not terrorists. But all terrorists are Muslims.
This inference, true are false, real or imaginary has been haunting people all over the world ever since 21 century dawned if not earlier. Muslims in India, few of them come out expressing their strong revulsion at the acts of terrorism and their sympathy for the victims. But not all.This is not to point an accusing finger at them. Why not the Muslims all over the world start a movement in their respective lands to express strong dispproval at these acts of cowardice and also their united hatred for the principles and actions of the organizations that form, enact and proudly claim ownership for such acts with impunity? Just as the awareness about AIDS has spread around the world why not the Muslims, those who are sober and would never vouch for violence and terrorism, spread the message that the majority are not behind these terrorist groups and also ensure that any kind of support-financial, moral and what-have-you,are not extended to any of these groups when they recruit candidates or money for their evil plots?Can the Muslim authorities everywhere make it clear to their votaries that it is absolutely against Islam to support or sympathize with terror groups as it would be against the fundamental tenets of Islam? When an individual incurs the wrath of an entire community for his work and cannot claim artistic freedom, why not the community unite to express openly its divorce from anything that threatens an innocent indivudual's life and limb anywhere- with a'fatwa' that plots and acts and people who preach terrorism are 'un Islamic?
Time to question whether this Mumbai 26/11, or other earlier terrorist violence, have achieved anything positive for the terrorists' causes?1) 26/11 has, indeed, caused much private and national sorrow in India, US, UK, Australia, Japan, Greece and Israel. But has the cause of Kashmir been served? If anything, policy-makers all over the world would wonder, if any moves they make on Kashmir would appear to be a "surrender" to terrorism? I expect the "status quo" on Kashmir to continue. 2) American and EU Public may well now think that NATO's war in Afghanistan MUST be won. Any thought they had of "scaling down" in Afghanistan will now have to be put aside. 3) Indian policy-makers may well be examining the possibility of India committing troops to Afghanistan. India's "man-power", especially, if US offers to subsidise, equip, has virtually no limit. Even now, any announcement of a "recruitment" camp for the Indian army and para-military forces, ensures a crowd of at least 30,000 wiry, keen, young men, even in small towns, competing for the 500 men quota for their entire district.4) India may now get more sophisticated military technologies from the USA, EU and Israel. India may herself ratchet up her existing satellite-spying capabilities. The 16 Indian satellites now in orbit, may be shored up with a few more military satellites. For those new technology may come from the USA, Canada, EU and Japan. USA and Israel have commenced supplying good but basic "military drones" to India. India has her own DRO production of "Lakshya", I am told. 5) The hi-jacking of planes in the 1970s by various mid-east groups, never brought them success. Israel only grew stronger with stronger support amongst the Western Public. Only "airport security" cost extra for everyone.6) "Al-Queda" has, so far, achieved very little medium or long term result. Yes, many are worried about them and their terrorists. But have they changed their policies? No. Even Muslim countries like Saudi-Arabia, Syria and Egypt are jailing extremists and terrorists. Their policies have not changed.7) All the terrorist groups Pakistan harbours, are collectively gnawing at the vitals of Pakistan itself. Taliban's take-over of Pakistan is NOT far off. What happened in Afghanistan will happen in Pakistan. It would turn into a battle ground, the same way Afghanistan has. Battles between Multi-national forces and wild men with long beards, fierce stares and loose headgear. A war of attrition, no doubt but one that the world could not help but wage or surrender to the terrorists. Nothing in between. Terrorists should not think that only they are capable of this fierce determination to wage war. All humans share that capability. Only the timing and methods differ. Upsetting humanity and civilisation through terrorism, will not, cannot succeed.
The true terror in India is on the roads:1,350,00 killed every year,millions wounded,10% of world casualties,1% of motor vehicles!In developed countries ,a lethal accident(twenty times less likely than in India) means a victim collapsed on the dashboard,with some blood splattered on his face,in India,with a slow moving traffic,victims are crushed,beheaded,burned,maimed,it's like a plane crash!
Indians are truly the worst drivers in the world...
The terrorist attacks in about ten places, popular and historic, in Mumbai are, to say the least, simply devilish. The audacious men who conceptualized, planned and finally executed the attacks are disgrace to humanity. They have killed by senseless bullets, bombs and blasts men, women, children, young and old indicriminately. The world will be surprised to know that high percentage of those who fell to the assialants' bombs and bullets were Muslims. The failure of the official machinary entrusted with intelligence yielded very spacious room for such a dastardly episode per se.
There, incidentally, have been officers, in bureaucracy, military and intelligence agencies, who, on several occasions in the past, had leaked and shared sensitive information to enemy countries for some tempting considerations. They have not been brought to book by the authorities. If any were punished, perhaps such officers lacked godfather in political and bureaucratic heirarchy to protect. The powerful ones have dodged action against them.
With L. K. Advani, for instance, as the presiding deity in Home ministry of the NDA Government, an officer in charge of Kashmir affairs had reportedly compromised internal security by sharing information to spies of neighbors. The officer in question had strong political connection in the powerful constituent of the NDA. Thus he got off the hook, thanks to his relation who was a shinning star in the Bajpayee Cabinet!!! Whatever ripples it created in some section of the media was soon suppressed.
Nobody has questioned why such brazen act of treachery with the nation's integrity and security has been pardoned? Some has been chased all over the world, because perhaps he had no father-in-law in the Union government of India.
The Pakiastan Government had created an unenviable paradox by offering to send its ISI chief and then backtracking. Pakistan is equally a victim of terrorism and therefore, should have built a common front with India against the terrorists. The Indians should not, however, raise brauhaha over the Pakistan if they ultimately decide to send [under international interference] the ISI chief to India for investigation. India must realize that Pakistan has fundamentalist forces without whose blessings no government can susrive there for long. India will lose its moral force and upper hand if the Hindu terrorist gain vast ground on its soil. In fact, the Hindu, safronized terrorists will give Islamic terrorists powerful legitimacy to go berserk.
It is critical time for India and action to contain, curb and crush terrorism must be accorded highest priority. The Mumbai incidents have shaken the foundation of confidence of Indians.
I deeply condole the deaths of men, women, children and old as well as the security forces in the terrorists' attacks.
A. K. Biswas
Amidst all the carnage and resignations one should revamp security to protect innocent civilians and also put policies into place so that extremism or dangerous ideologies that stem from hatred are not given a chance. Indians should not allow any ultra groups to set up Religious Centres in India.
Let's see these events in the light of Four Objectives Of USA. Washington is intent on using the Mumbai attacks to: 1) Foster divisions between Pakistan and India and shunt the process of bilateral cooperation and trade between the two countries;2) Promote internal social, ethnic and sectarian divisions in both India and Pakistan;3) Justify US military actions inside Pakistan including the killing of civilians in violation of the country's territorial sovereignty; 4) Provide a justification for extending the US led "war on terrorism" into the Indian sub-continent and South East Asia.
I had heard that Economist was an 'authoritative' publication. The article is a very banal account of terrorist incidents in the last ten years in India. It's almost like the editor found a two week old journalist to write this article to beat the print deadline. "Whether or not such a group really exists, suspicion will inevitably fall on Islamist extremists." Do you believe any group other than Islamist extremists is capable to execute an attack of this scale? All terrorism in India can be traced back to Pakistan– state or rogue. Indian Police have uncovered compelling evidence to prove that the attack was devised, planned and carried out by jihadist outfits with base camps in Pakistan. Obama is right to ascertain that Pakistan is a haven for jihadist elements as it's a country unable to establish any form of control. I feel sorry for the progressive Pakistan citizen– you have a weak government, weaker economy, Islamist extremists running amok, unemployment that make the young men impressionable enough to kill innocent hardworking people and then die by gunshot wounds. Your country just about avoided bankruptcy, America doesn't consider you a worthy ally anymore and you're losing credibility and prominence on the global stage.
India is a strong country with strong people. We have an established democracy, self reliant, strong and growing economy, ambitious and educated people. We are actively and positively reshaping the world today, forging new relations with the nations that have a deeper purpose. Pakistan is not an agenda on anybody's mind our people are too focused on building a good life. A few young and brainwashed boys don't shake our country. I truly feel sorry for them; they lacked the basic intelligence that is common to men. They lacked the faculties to exercise any control over their actions. They were just trained like monkeys to carry out some mad mans designs.
We will never forget the people who laid down their lives for our country. We are deeply saddened by the loss. We will find the right solution. I have complete faith in the Indian purpose, reason, capability and resolve. Long live India.
Here a terrorist, there a terrorist, everywhere has a terrorist.
What has shocked the world in the Mumbai attack was not so much of the casualties (nearly 200 deaths), but the tactic used that resembles urban guerilla war-fare. Indian government seems to have caught by surprise, even though there had been unconfirmed information of the assault a week before the incidents.
There is no point of pointing fingers. This is not India's problem alone, for it has become a global issue. Such inhuman and heinous crime could happen anywhere, anytime, and to anyone. The UN should spearhead a concerted effort to eradicate terrorism resolutely -- never mind how much it costs, never mind how long it takes.
What has the world degraded to? Have we not already had enough of on-going conflicts and wars?
(Tan Boon Tee)
The indian govt has taken complacency and bureaucracy to its extreme. Proactive is a word that they have never heard of.
- Commando's came in after 10 hours . WTF?
- Commando's dint have night vision goggles and heat
sensing cameras
- The terrorist made it to the railway station where there were
60 policemen carrying world war1 rifles and
apparently laughed at the dead policement wearing
bullet proof vests
In a country of billion people,perhaps a human life
is only as worth as much as a bacteria !!
Negotiations were still ongoing when India promoted the civil strife and made it impossiple for the Awami league to sit dwn with the then rulers. The genocide could have been prevented if India had let the opposing parties talk. Even one innocent death is one too many. The Kashmiris are struggling as are the Afghans. The occupiers will never have an objective view of the whole picture. Their own interest will overcome truth and justice. Are 1.2 million dead Iraqis not a genocide? How many Palestinians have to die? The Afghans have lost more than a million dead plus 5 million refugees and the country a disaster. What number of dead qualifies to be a genocide or ethnic cleansing? Or is it that if one is mightier than the other then one intervenes? The UN is subordinate to the security council/Veto holders.(An atrocious concept.) Only the imperialists could have thought of it. he oppressed are learning to fight back, and the world is turning into a scary place.
Its a sense of immense helplessness and hopelessness. Helplessness because We and not I dont know what next. How, when, WHY remain questions unasnwered. Hopelessness because We and not I know that its a matter of time that this helplessness will die down. The questions will cease to exist and people will forget. The politicians will smile behind the shutter bugs and mockery of the common man will continue to happen as ever.
The rich in india are too busy to go vote. Lives of the rich were lost but they are to busy to remember. The poor are clueless, as they shall vote for who shall pay and dish out a host of new promises which over time shall pass by. The sacrificed will be remembered each year in a silent candle light vigil. Indians will continue to remain silent, as always. for how long We dont know.
Cut the money to the terrorist. We can if we want to. Bring in equality amongst the rich and poor. the nations have to come together to work towards eradication terrorism. money is where it all begins and money is where it shall end.
All i would say is Sonia Gandhi please shut up, LK Advani please shut up, Lalu Prasad Yadav please shut up, Mayawati please shut up, Vilasrao please shut up, RR patil please shut up....let India speak for once...and for ONCE PLEASE LISTEN..for heaven's sake!
India supported the Mukti bahini in Bangladesh after March 1971. Do you suggest that India should not have supported them? Do you know that 2 million Bangladeshis were massacred by Yahya Khan's Pakistani army between March and December 1971?
It was the worst ethnic cleansing since holocaust.
Please do not compare Kashmir with that genocide in 1971.
One mans' freedom fighter is anothers' terrorist. India has several insurgencies going on. Whenever India has a chance it has supported one in their neighboring countries. Sri Lanka, The Mukhti Bahini in Banglades when it was East Pakistan and of course any chance it gets in Pakistan. The neighbors have learnt it from the master and now the chickens are coming home to roost. You cannot instigate and think that you will be safe. The solution is to sit with your neighbors and talk and resolve issues and not to try to bully them. The innocent people of all the countriesincluding India end up paying the ultimate price. The former USSR invaded Afghanistan to counter the American interference and India suppored it. Pakistani Generals saw the invasion as a gift for they exploited it and the west pored in money and weapons and left when USSR left. The region has sufferred eversince. War after war and the spillage to neighboring countries. Who gained?
cats must play a lot of GTA
Terrorists in India have employed a variety of attack types over time: 38.7% of terrorist events were facility attacks, 29.7% percent were bombings (in which the intent was to destroy a specific facility), and 25.5% were assassinations. The recent events in Mumbai would be classified as a series of coordinated facility attacks."http://resourceforsocialmedia.wordpress.com/

Connect Out Paths!
Welcome to the Friends of Granger Paths Website. Since 2004, our shared vision to build multi-use paths in Granger has been underway. Many thought it would never happen, BUT because of your commitment, the first phase of the Adams Road Path is COMPLETE!
With that wonderful news, we have more great news to share with you. FGP received word that – If we can raise 20% of the construction costs, St. Joseph County will give us a grant to begin construction of Phase 1B. Phase 1B will continue west along Adams Road from Elm Road to Fir Road (on the north side).
Many of you may have thought that we have officially started our Connect Our Paths campaign when we put up signs that show $170,000 to raise. Well, we jumped into the water a bit quickly because we are so excited to continue the work on this awesome community asset. Although we have not started our "official" capital campaign, we continue to work with St. Joseph County in "dotting our "i's" and crossing our "t's" and look forward to moving forward in the near future. We trust that we can count on you to join us in continuing to create a more connected and healthier community!
In the meantime, keep an eye on our signs and look for more news on our facebook page or here.
If you'd like to volunteer your expertise please contact us at: email@example.com

The present invention relates to a switching device for generating a switch signal, a reading device with the switching device and a method for the communication between a reading device and a transponder (T). The switching device includes an antenna (4), which with the help of an adapter circuit (AN) is adapted to a given resistance, and a measuring bridge (1), which includes two voltage dividers connected in parallel. The resistance acts in one of the voltage dividers and in the case of a change of the resistance the measuring bridge (1) generates the switch signal. This means when a transponder reaches the detection range of a reading device having the switching device, an additional impedance is coupled in, which acts on the measuring bridge (1). This change is recognized and leads to the generation of the switch signal.

A switching device for generating a switch signal to be activated with the help of a transponder, comprising an antenna, adapted, with the help of an adapter circuit, to a given resistance, and a measuring bridge comprising two voltage dividers connected in parallel, wherein the resistance acts in one of the voltage dividers and the measuring bridge generates the switch signal when the resistance changes.

16. The method according to
17. The method according to
The present invention relates to a switching device for generating a switch signal, which is equally suitable for the integration into a transponder reading device and for subsequently equipping a transponder reading device. Furthermore, the invention relates to a reading device having such a switching device and a method for the communication between a reading device and a transponder.
In standards ISO/IEC 14443 and ISO/IEC 15693 a method is described, how a transponder reading device can set up a data connection with a transponder of another device (contactless chip card/RFID transponder). For this purpose the reading device periodically emits a search signal with a high field strength (e.g. 1.5-7.5 A/m according to ISO/IEC 14443) until a device provided with transponder reaches the response range of the reading device, is provided with energy from the field of the reading device and sends a response to the reading device. For reading devices with limited energy resources, however, this results in a reduction of the possible operating lifetime, in particular for battery powered devices.
In order to increase the operating lifetime of a reading device, U.S. Pat. No. 6,150,948 describes an RFID reading device, which with the help of an energy-saving detector searches for transponders in the surrounding. For example, this detector is a detector operating on an infrared basis. The RFID reading device itself is not activated until a transponder is detected in the proximity of the reading device.
From WO 03/069538 A1 is known a switching device for a reading device to be activated with the help of a transponder, which as long as a switching operation is not triggered can be operated in a nearly loadless fashion. For this purpose the reading device to be activated is provided with a coil, which is part of an oscillating circuit, which in the recognition mode is operated as a substantially unloaded pure oscillating circuit. The resonant frequency in the oscillating circuit is monitored by a frequency observer. If a transponder with a transponder coil approaches the recognition coil, the resonant frequency of the oscillating circuit changes. This is detected by the frequency observer, which thereupon generates a switch signal that switches on the reading device to be activated. With that it is possible to recognize a transponder in the proximity of the coil even without a transmitting power (worth mentioning), since the field strength of the search signal emitted during the�optionally periodical�measuring operation no longer is used for supplying a transponder with energy.
WO 2005/013506 A1, too, describes a measuring and switching device for measuring the influence an approaching transponder has on a transmitting antenna of an RFID reading device. WO 2005/013506 A1 in particular describes in detail the processes in a reading device for detecting a transponder without the emission of energy for supplying this transponder with energy. A substantial part of WO 2005/013506 A1 is a measuring device for measuring the electrical properties of the transmitting antenna of the reading device, the circuit of the measuring device for example being formed as a PLL circuit. PLL stands for �phase locked loop� and means, that a signal with a frequency is set so exactly relative to a signal with a reference frequency that the phase relation between the signals is permanently set. A disadvantage of the described PLL circuit is, however, that it uses the antenna coil of the reading device antenna as a frequency-determining component of an oscillator. This means that the PLL circuit must be directly connected with the antenna coil. But with many reading devices the reader antenna is adapted with an adapter circuit to an impedance of 50Ω and is installed via a coaxial cable connection, detached from the electronics of the reading device. With such an arrangement the described PLL circuit can be realized only with difficulties or cannot be realized at all.
Therefore, it is the problem of the present invention to specify a switching device for a transponder reading device to be activated to be actuated by a transponder which on the side of the reading device to be activated has a power consumption as low as possible and, furthermore, in terms of circuitry is especially easy to realize.
This problem is solved by a switching device, a reading device provided therewith and a method according to the independent claims. In claims dependent thereon advantageous embodiments and developments of the invention are specified.
The switching device according to the invention substantially comprises an antenna and a measuring bridge, which consists of two voltage dividers connected in parallel. The antenna is adapted to a given resistance with the help of an adapter circuit and the resistance acts in one of the voltage dividers. When the resistance changes, a switch signal is generated. When the switching device according to the invention for example is used in a reading device for the communication with a transponder, the resistance of the adapter circuit changes as soon as a transponder reaches the detection range of the reading device. When the antenna for example is an antenna coil, which produces an electromagnetic alternating field, by a magnetic reverse coupling between the antenna coil of the reading device and the antenna coil of the transponder an additional impedance is transformed in the antenna coil. With that the resistance adapted with the help of the adapter circuit, which acts on one of the voltage dividers, also changes. This change is recognized by the measuring bridge and leads to a control signal, which for example activates the reading device to communicate with the transponder. Then the communication between the reading device and the transponder is effected in a known fashion.
Preferably, each voltage divider of the measuring bridge comprises two resistors connected in series, then the measuring bridge especially preferred being realized as a Wheatstone bridge circuit.
The circuit required for recognizing a transponder in the recognition range of a reading device can be operated in a nearly loadless fashion, because the switching device according to the invention does not need to emit periodical request signals of a high field strength in order to recognize a transponder. Accordingly, the switching device has an extraordinarily low power consumption. For this reason it is especially suitable for actuating circuits the power supply of which is effected with the help of a limited power source. Therefore, in particular it is suitable for supplying circuits powered by small batteries, solar cells, fuel cells and similar energy sources. Since the device is largely independent of the size of the provided power source, a flexible use in a wide variety of places of incorporation is possible for which the device otherwise would not be suitable.
Furthermore, the reading device according to the invention is very user-friendly, because it does not require any special handling measures from a user. The employed transponders can have the usual form of appearance and can be used in the usual way. In particular, any particular constructive measures with respect to the structure of the transponder are not required. Therefore, a special advantage of the reading device according to the invention is that on the part of the transponder the already present coil of the transponder triggers the switching operation, thus any particular components are not required. Accordingly, the transponders can have a cost-effective form.
A further advantage of the invention is, that the adapter circuit can be designed to adapt the antenna to a resistance of e.g. 50Ω, i.e. to the impedance of 50Ω typical for transponder-reading devices. Therefore, the measuring bridge can be disposed via a coaxial circuit connection separated from the antenna coil or reading device. Furthermore, subsequently realizing the switching device according to the invention in already existing reading devices is possible without problems.
Further features and advantages of the invention appear from the following description of various embodiments and alternative embodiments according to the invention in connection with the accompanying Figures.
Input voltage UE and output voltage UA each are applied or tapped at opposing connection points. Resistances R1 and R2 are known, and Rv is a variable known comparator resistance. Rx is the unknown resistance to be determined. Now, Rv is set or selected such that via the bridge a current does not flow�i.e. at UA a voltage is not tapped; this operation is also referred to as null balancing. The Wheatstone measuring bridge is mainly used in measuring technology and automatic control engineering (sensor engineering) for precision measurings. In alternating current technology there are often used impedances instead of pure resistances, in order to balance effective resistance and reactance at the same time. Depending on the number of variable resistances one differentiates between quarter bridge (one variable impedance), half bridge (two variable impedances) and full bridge (four variable impedances).
High-frequency oscillator 2 generates a sinusoidal alternating voltage with a frequency corresponding to the transmitting frequency of the reading apparatus LV, e.g. 13.56 megahertz, which is fed into the measuring bridge 1. Measuring bridge 1 consists of the two voltage dividers R1/R2 and Rv/ZM.
The reading antenna 4 usually consists of a conductor loop with at least one turn. With the help of the adapter circuit AN the conductor loop is resonated at the transmitting frequency of the reading device (oscillating circuit) and at the same time the impedance of the antenna is transformed to a real resistance of 50Ω at the input of the adapter circuit. The input of the adapter circuit AN is connected via a switch 3, and optionally a coaxial connection 5, to the measuring bridge 1. In measuring bridge 1 the driving-point impedance ZM visible at the coaxial connection, normally the driving-point impedance of the adapter circuit AN (i.e. 50Ω), is effective component of the voltage divider Rv/ZM. In the case of an appropriate spatial proximity between switch 3 and measuring bridge 1 the coaxial cable connection 5, optionally, can be left out. In this case, too, the impedance ZM corresponds to the driving-point impedance of the adapter circuit AN.
The bridge is balanced such that the condition R1/R2=Rv/ZM is met, i.e. there normally applies: R1/R2=Rv/50Ω. In this case the voltage UA between the two voltage dividers becomes zero.
If a transponder T reaches the response range 9 of the antenna 4, by a magnetic reverse coupling between antenna coil 4 and the antenna coil of the transponder T an additional impedance is transformed in antenna coil 4. This leads to the fact that impedance ZM′ at the output of adapter circuit AN also changes, i.e. no longer corresponds to real 50Ω, but can take any value R�jX. At the end of coaxial cable 5 the changed value of the impedance ZM can be measured, too. This leads to the fact that the condition R1/R2=Rv/ZM no longer is met and voltage UA between the two voltage dividers becomes unequal zero. With the help of measuring amplifier MV this voltage is increased and supplied to control device SV in the form of a control signal. When a defined threshold is exceeded, i.e. when a control signal is sent by measuring bridge 1 to control device SV, control device SV assumes that now a transponder is in the response range 9 of the antenna coil 4.
For initiating a communication with transponder T then in a first step the adapter circuit AN is connected via switch 3 with reading apparatus LV. For this purpose switch 3 is actuated with a switch signal 7 by control device SV. In a second step control device SV sends a start signal to reading apparatus LV, whereupon the reading device switches on the transmitter and sets up a communication connection with the transponder.
When transponder T leaves the response range of antenna 4, there can be provided that the reading apparatus LV signals to the control device SV, that a transponder cannot be addressed any longer. Then control device SV again switches adapter circuit AN via switch 3 to measuring bridge 1, which then again is in a balanced state, i.e. the condition R1/R2=Rv/50Ω again is met. At the same time the transmitter of reading apparatus LV is switched off in order to not unnecessarily consume energy.
In practice adapter circuit AN cannot always adapt antenna 4 to have exactly real 50Ω by. There often remains a low complex resistance jX. But by adding a complex resistance jX2 at least one of the resistances R1, R2 or Rv the balanced state can be restored. In
It is obvious that the principle of function of the arrangement according to the invention can also be employed with antenna input resistances others than 50Ω. Then the measuring bridge has to be dimensioned in an adapted fashion, so that the balance condition R1/R2=Rv/ZM is met.
For the easier integration into a transponder reading device or for subsequently equipping a transponder reading device with the arrangement according to the invention, measuring bridge 1, high-frequency oscillator 2 and control device SV are expediently accommodated in an integrated detection unit. Such a detection unit has an input for a voltage supply, which also supplies reading apparatus LV. It further has a high-frequency alternating voltage output for the connection to switch 3 or reading antenna 4, a switching output connected with reading apparatus LV and switch 3 for switching on and off the two, as well as a reset input for receiving a reset signal from reading apparatus LV after a transponder has been removed from response range 9.
It is provided, that host H at first communicates with control device V. As long as the measuring device M according to the invention does not recognize a transponder T, control device SV reports the status �no transponder in the field� to host H.
When a transponder T reaches the response range 9 of antenna 4 and if it is recognized by measuring device M, it is provided that control device SV activates reading apparatus LV via communication connection 6. When reading apparatus LV does not know an explicit command for switching on and off its transmitter, or when the reading device even in the stand-by mode has a too high current consumption, switching on and off the voltage supply of reading apparatus LV can also be provided. Furthermore, adapter circuit AN is connected via switch 3 with the antenna terminal 8 of the reading device.
When the reading device reports the successful set-up of a communication with transponder T, it is provided to report this status to host H. In the following course, optionally, incoming commands of the host and the responses of the reading apparatus LV can be passed on between host and reading device by the control device SV without any further processing, so that host and reading apparatus LV can undisturbedly communicate with each other (transparent mode of control device SV). It is merely provided, that control device SV monitors the communication between host H and reading apparatus LV, in order to be able to recognize the status �transponder has left response field�.
When the transponder has left the response field, according to the invention it is provided that the reading apparatus LV is deactivated by a command of the control device SV or, optionally, by switching off the voltage supply. Thereafter, control device SV again takes over the communication with host H and finally switches the adapter circuit AN with the help of switch 3 to measuring device M, so as to again start the measuring process.

Agreed. You hire the admin and hand over the keys. You are probably being asked to be more strategic and that should not include owning superuser. I would encourage a process which does not allow steady state administration using root/administrator. Those should be special cases (even when you owned the privileges). More restores are because a user made an administrative mistake in an over-privileged sessions than because of hardware errors.

In The Perfect Score — now in theaters — Erika Christensen stars as Anna, a high schooler under pressure from her folks to get top marks on the SAT, get admitted to Brown, and live out their fantasy of a perfect life. Happily, the budding actress — best known for her work in Traffic and Swimfan — can't relate much to that whole hassle.
Unlike Anna's demanding 'rents, Christensen's mom and dad sound downright cool, especially when it comes to her chosen career. "When I was 5, they put me in acting," she tells TV Guide Online. "They didn't know that I wanted to do it and they became paranoid that they were being those 'pushy parents.' So they just stopped. Then, when I was about 12, I realized that I did want to [act], and they gave me a little trial period. I did really well and started making money, and they figured, 'Alright, this is a good deal. We can do this.'
"I am fortunate enough to have been raised withou

David Gest claims the National Enquirer ended his marriage to
Liza Minnelli. In a Dateline interview airing Friday, Gest says his estranged wife pulled the plug on the union after the tabloid published an article that portrayed her as a raging alcoholic and him as a devoted husband. Gest says his ex was convinced he planted the item.

He may not have been the most memorable contestant on The Apprentice, but fourth ouster Bowie Hogg has a personality as big as his home state of Texas. Here, he sounds off on his fellow competitors, rationalizes his expulsion, describes his dream woman and answers the show's $1 million question: What happens to the rejects after they get in that cab?
TV Guide Online: Other than a certain legendary rock star, Bowie is a rather unusual name. Is there a story behind it? Bowie Hogg: I was the youngest of four boys — my three older brothers have totally normal names — and I guess with the fourth one they couldn't decide on a name. My birth sticker from the hospital says "Boy Hogg," and they couldn't decide. For two weeks I had no name! And then my brother Jim was playing peek-a-boo as a joke and it stuck.
TVGO: You called Sam a "cancer" in the group. Don't you think that was a bit harsh? Hogg: No, I don't. He and I are actu

Maybe you've heard: The NBC juggernaut Friends is coming to an end this year. But we bet you haven't been told why you needn't despair: There's another sitcom all ready to take its place, at least according to Topher Grace, adorable dork Eric Foreman on Fox's That '70s Show.
"I don't think [our period laugher] will replace Friends," the scrawny leading man says, tongue in cheek. "I think it will far, far surpass Friends as the best show ever in the history of the universe. But I don't want to set myself up for a downfall."
Truth be told, we wouldn't be surprised if Grace's smart-ass prediction turned out to be on the money. That '70s Show is on a roll this season, and, with its principals all lined up to continue, it's bound keep on rockin'. For his part, the Win a Date With Tad Hamilton! star still considers himself the luckiest geek alive to have landed the series in the first place.

Janet Jackson admits she acted like a boob during Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show. In a statement released Monday night, the Nasty songstress admitted her breast-baring duet with Justin Timberlake was an escapade gone awry. "The decision to have a costume reveal at the end of my halftime show performance was made after final rehearsals. MTV was completely unaware of it," she said. "It was not my intention that it go as far as it did. I apologize to anyone offended including the audience, MTV, CBS and the NFL." Jackson's camp claims a red lace bra was supposed to remain when Timberlake tore off the black leather bustier. FCC chief Michael Powell, meanwhile, is investigating whether CBS violated any decency laws. (Fines could reach into the millions.) And CBS, which is launching its own probe into breast-gate, is threatening to ban Janet and Justin from Sun

On Friday, May 30, 2014, Irvington Community Elementary School hosted its first annual Summer Reading Kickoff. ICES families enjoyed dinner and a night full of fun reading-centered activities, with the purpose of encouraging students to develop a "reading habit" over their summer break.
Representatives from the Indianapolis-Marion County Public Library and Barnes & Noble Booksellers joined ICES faculty and staff to share information about their respective summer reading programs. Paws & Think, a local nonprofit organization that provides trained therapy dogs for students to read to in order to gain confidence in reading, was also on hand. Additional Summer Reading Kickoff activities involved a QR code scavenger hunt, Reader's Theater, Mad Lib Mania, and Make-Your-Own Bookmarks.
Through a grant from Target and First Book, ICES was able to provide students three new books and an activity packet. UPS Mail Innovations graciously donated bags, pens, and bookmarks for students. Other organizations who kindly donated items to the event include Mass Ave Toys, Indianapolis Speedrome, Maximum Growth Gardening, and Donatos.
The two Indiana Pacers/ICS fundraisers this year were extremely successful, with ICS profiting $8,000 for technology improvements. Plans are to continue this promotion during the 2014-2015 school year. Special thanks to Ms. Pryor for her yeoman's effort in coordinating these events. The Pacers will undoubtedly look forward to our participation next year, as the team won on both the January 16th and April 2nd games!
IPA's Show Choir, under the direction of Ms. Shuck, proudly sings "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the Indiana Pacers home game crowd on April 2nd, 2014, at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
Largely thanks to our service-minded students at IPA, the 6th Annual Jesse Terry Memorial Blood Drive was a HUGE success. The Indiana Blood Center reported that 41 units of blood were collected (which represents 41 donors), with only nine defaults (unsuccessful donor attempts). This was an all-time ICS blood drive record!
The IBC's target is to collect 550 units daily, so our contribution to this lifesaving cause was significant. Our deepest thanks to all students, staff, and community members who donated the gift of life yesterday.
IPA Senior Cody Runciman is "caught in the act" of donating blood during the 6th Annual Jesse Terry Memorial Blood Drive at IPA on Wednesday, April 9th.
IPA Director of Operations Ms. Pryor showed her "Raven spirit" by joining students to participate in the blood drive.
Mrs. Pittman, IPA TAP Master Teacher, donates blood for the first time, along with many other IPA students who were first-time donors.
Last month, Energizing Indiana visited all three Irvington Community School campuses to conduct an energy assessment and install energy-saving equipment. The installation project resulted in nearly $7,000 worth of free CFL lamps, occupancy-sensing power strips, lighting occupancy sensors, and LED exit signs. As well, Energizing Indiana provided an in-depth analysis recommending how ICS could enjoy further energy cost reductions through other measures.
Energizing Indiana involves a coalition of participating utility companies and consumer organizations promoting energy efficiency programs throughout the state. The organization provides education, tools, and incentives for energy conservation. We are encouraging ICS community members to contact Energizing Indiana for a free Home Energy Assessment, which can help improve your home's energy performance, air quality, and increase your home's value. The energy advisor will install energy efficient CFLs, faucet aerators, and showerheads, as well as water heater pipe insulation. What's more, ICS will receive $25 as the nonprofit organization of choice once your home assessment is complete! For more information and to schedule your assessment, visit www.energizingindiana.com.
On Thursday, December 5, 2013, IPA's Prom Committee held its 3rd Annual Chili Cook-Off. There were seven entrants and, for the second consecutive year, Mrs. Harmeyer took first place. Ms. Rains and Mr. Miller tied for second. But all in attendance were arguably considered winners, as they sampled the delicious efforts of our in-house chili chefs. From the looks of it, all were happy campers indeed!
IPA Counselor Ms. Brinsley and Social Studies Teacher Mr. Uhlman dig in!

NALCO halts operations at bauxite mine - exec
BHUBANESWAR (Reuters) - State-run National Aluminium Co Ltd (NALCO)(NALU.NS) has suspended operations at its only bauxite mine in Odisha as its mining lease has expired, Ansuman Das, chairman and managing director said on Monday.
The disruption at Panchpatmali mine in the Koraput district of Odisha, which has a deposit of more than 310 million tonnes of bauxite, is expected to have no immediate impact on its alumina refinery, as NALCO will apply for a temporary permit to resume mining, Das said.
"We have taken up with the government and expect to resume operations by the month end," Das told Reuters.
"For the next three weeks Nalco will stick to its commitments both in terms of sending alumina to the smelter and to meet all its export commitments," Das added.
NALCO, India's third largest aluminium producer, had applied nearly two years ago for the renewal of the lease which expired on November 16.

Monet and the Seine at Philbrook
If you've read my blog or followed me on social media for any amount of time, you know I love Philbrook museum. We love 2nd Saturdays, and have gone back for many other great free, seasonal events. Right now, they are hosting a traveling exhibit called "Monet and the Seine," showcasing much of Claude Monet's artwork from the period of time where he lived in different locations along the Seine river in France. We wanted to save the best for last, so we first toured the entire museum and all the exhibits that are there all the time, including my favorite: the gardens. I just can't help but wish my own garden at home looked like this when I am there. I walk through the gardens so much...

Tulsa Food Roundup
When you're a divorced parent, Summer usually means extended periods of time with less-than-usual or zero amounts of children. For my husband and me, that means lots of going out to eat. It's amazing how much eating out you can afford when you're not having to feed six people on a daily basis! I've been eating and experiencing so many yummy places this Summer, with full intentions of writing up a post about each and every one, but for the sake of time (and my majorly slacking blog skills as of late), I'm just going to do an epic (and I mean epic) blog post about all of them. I call this the Tulsa Food Roundup. Buckle up, y'all; this post is EPIC. First up: R Bar We are LOVING R Bar....

Sharing the Magic of My Childhood
This Summer, we have been making a point to share with our kids the movies we grew up on. It's been so fun to see their reaction to movies like these: These are all movies we've watched as a family this Summer and it's been a lot of fun. Movies still on the list are: The Princess Bride The Three Amigos The Karate Kid Ghostbusters Labyrinth And most recently, I got to share the magic of Back to the Future with my littles and one of their friends at Guthrie Green's Movies in the Park. Of course, when you go to Guthrie Green, it's always way more fun than you expected and quite the adventure. When we...

#CoUFest is Good for Tulsa
It's time! Today marks the first day of the second ever Center of the Universe Festival in Tulsa. But if you're talking about it on social media, be sure to join the cool kids table and use the hashtag #COUFEST. C'mon, you know you want to go tweet about it! We went to #CoUFest 2013 and had a BLAST. I love the CoU Festival for the music, but you know what I love even more? I love how amazing it is for the City of Tulsa, my hometown. There's a lot of talk on blogs and social media about community and how building community is good for families and economy and education and so many other things. Great communities have great events like this! Think of Austin, Texas and Austin City Limits Music Festival. A festival this size...

I Scream, You Scream...
We all scream for ice cream, don't we? Did you know there's an exciting new way to experience ice cream right here near Tulsa? Texas based Blue Bell Creameries has one of their factories located in Broken Arrow at 8201 E. Hwy 51, and they offer tours of the facility Monday through Friday from 9am - 2pm. Recently I got my crew and a few friends together and scheduled an appointment for a tour. We donned our complimentary Blue Bell hats and started getting excited! There's a little brick building where you check in, pay, get your hat and wait for the rest of the attendees, then you follow the sidewalk to the side of the building over to the actual creamery! The tour guide began by...

One of the reasons I love working at Shorashim is that I get to work on cool projects in addition to Taglit-Birthright Israel. One of them is called Classroom to Classroom: an initiative to help Hebrew high school classrooms and religious schools make their Israel curriculums more innovative using social media. Through a fellowship sponsored by the iCenter and the Jewish Education Project called Project Incite, I was coached through creating a brand new educational project that will rock the Jewish world, and most importantly to our organization's mission: connect Americans and Israelis.
With the help of Shorashim's Executive Director Adam Stewart, we designed a pilot social media platform and invited classroom teachers to join us on a trip to Israel to meet with other teachers from Kiryat Gat to be trained on the program and put their already existing curriculum to use.
The trip, thanks to our P2K hosts Niva Vollman and Susan Peled, was a success beyond my imagination. The teachers from the Chicago area (Hanna Pashtan—Highland Park High School, Semadar Siegel—Evanston Township High School, Ezra Balzer—Congregation Am Yisrael) hit it off with the four teachers from the Kiryat Gat high schools and picked up the program quickly.
After follow up visits to most of the schools, the program was launched and the students from the Chicago area and Israel were connecting with each other within (and sometimes outside) the framework of the Classroom to Classroom platform. Perhaps one of the most poignant exchanges came from the following question: What do you think is the hardest thing about being a teenager in the United States and Israel?
One Chicago area teen wrote: We have many pressures on us. Most of us are involved in many after school activities. It is very hard on American teenage students to manage our time. A typical school week day for me is going to school, staying three and a half more hours for dance rehearsal, then going home to do all the homework I have that night. The homework level we get can be very stressful. As a junior in high school, another pressure is the ACT, which is a standardized test. All colleges you apply to look at your ACT score to help them determine if you should be accepted or not. Many students spend a lot of time studying and practicing for this test throughout the whole year. It adds even more pressure than just keeping up with school activities and homework.
Another Chicago area teenager wrote: The hardest thing about being a teenager in America is the constant fake personalities of people and the nonsense that people say to you to try and make you feel bad.
An Israeli teenager wrote: I think that the hardest thing of being a teenager in Israel is the wars, for example 'Oferet yetzuka.' We were supposed to stay at home all day long, afraid from the missile, even very late at night! But despite all the pain and fear we are proud to be Israeli teenagers. In times like this, it's important to support each other and be united.
Another teenager from Israel wrote: For my opinion, the hardest thing of being teenager in Israel is to be able to manage all the hatred and hostility from the world ...it took us so long to build this whole state, why can't we just live in peace without all the wars and the fear in our eyes? Although it sounds very depressing, I wouldn't change my origin for any penny in the world! It who I am, who we are, the Israeli citizens... and we have our special quality.
Shorashim's mission is our belief that students (and adults) best learn about Israel from her people, and that the same is true for Israelis learning about American Jewry. While the absolute best way is to visit Israel until a student can get to Israel, perhaps Classroom to Classroom is the second best way.
