Since 2007, the Hong Kogn Health Authority has implemented an anti-smoking law that bans smoking in all indoor areas. This pushes office smokers to take their cigarette breaks in the street. Smokers from neighboring buildings gradually bond and form a new community known as "Hot Pot Pack", as they would gather around a trash bin with an ashtray, staring small takes with raunchy jokes. During the ciparette break, Jimmy befriends a misfit salesgirl Cherie who also likes to light up An awkward romance soon blossoms amidst the anxiety of their nicotine rush.

This blog is the third in a three-part series in which we discuss Medicare coverage for diabetes supplies.
Medicare Part B covers insulin pumps worn outside the body — including the insulin used with the pump — for some people with Medicare Part B who have diabetes and meet certain conditions.
What are those conditions? You must meet either criterion A or B.
Criterion A
Criterion A states that you must:
Criterion B
Criterion B states that you must have been using an insulin pump prior to enrollment in Medicare, and that you have documentation of testing your blood glucose four times a day during the month prior to Medicare enrollment.
Important details
In addition, it's important to note:
What are your experiences with insulin pumps and Medicare?
Have a good week.

im type 1 and about to go on medicare. my pump will not be covered so i'm left with few choices and lots of changes. everyone is saying how sorry they are........my dr., and my omnipod supplier......makes me feel so much better...no.....I am not a happy camper right now..........
My approved mail order company told me to go sit in a corner and die. If I am not a type1 no pump no how no way....even tho i have used my pump for nearly 9 years. This was just for some cartridges and infusion sets, wait until this fall when time comes for a new pump.
Medicare questions: here is a number for you to contact Medicare and find out the contract supplier in your area. 1-800-633-4227. TTY users call 1-877-486-2048 or Medicare.gov/supplier and enter your zip code.
I have been using an insulin pump for 13 years. The problem I am having concerns Medicare and where to get insulin. I can't find a medical supplier or pharmacy that will bill my insulin to Part B as a durable medical supply. For several years I got my pump supplies and insulin from CCS Medical. They will no longer bill insulin to Part B. Same story with Liberty Medical.
For awhile I was getting my supplies and insulin from Mini Pharmacy in Los Angeles. The last time I called to order I could not get my supplies and insulin because my primary insurance was Medicare and they could no longer bill Medicare. My current supplier for pump supplies does not handle insulin. I have checked with Walgreens and Rite Aid with no luck. I had to pay over $200 co-pay to Walgreens for 4 vials. When it was billed to Part B I payed $0.00. Any suggestions?
To receive insulin for a pump, my doctor writes a prescription which I take to a CVS for the purchase. We provide information from the doctor that I have an insulin pump and it is then billed to Medicare. The doctor must supply his physician number. If they don't want to do this under Medicare, show them the book which states insulin for a pump is paid for by Part B Medicare. They will charge you 20%. If you have a secondary plan that pays everything Medicare B does not, they will bill that company and there is "no" charge.
I am a Type I diabetic and I love Medicare! Maybe some of the people responding had an employer paying for their insurance and did not realize how the cost had gone up. I was a small business owner and my insurance alone (not counting my husband) was $1200 PER MONTH. With that, I got deductibles, and certainly, it didn't cover the full amount of supplies - plus my insurance only covered a very small amount when I purchased my first pump. Now, I happily pay my Medicare payment and an additional $240 per month for an additional policy and everything is covered! If you are unhappy with the additional money you pay, save money by buying a better secondary policy. There is nothing for FREE. When I purchase insulin for the pump, I carry the part from the Medicare book on insulin purchases for pumps. It only takes a few minutes to argue with the pharmacy with that and mine is billed to Medicare. My 20% is picked up by my secondary policy. The pharmacy files the paperwork and I receive confirmation that it has been paid. No, they will not cover CCM. Yes, I'm unhappy about that but I just test more frequently. And, every person that needs an insulin pump should see a doctor every 3 months. If you have the secondary insurance, as I have, the doctor visit also doesn't cost anything as the secondary picks up what Medicare doesn't. There is no cost to me for the lab costs either. It also pays for my yearly eye exam for diabetes. I'm a happy camper!
I spent over an hour researching Medicare.gov and talked with several live representatives and I did not get a direct answer to the question. "Are CGM sensors covered by Medicare?" I did not see it listed in the DME supplies. Does anyone have any experience with Medicare and CGM sensors?
are the sensors for the pump covered by medicare?
for the person who thinks medicare patients are stupid to think their meds will be paid for...we pay our own way. we pay a premium for medicare just like and more then private insurance. I also pay (besides the 130 to medicare) $170 for a supplement and another $80 for meds insurance. Now they are backing out of the deal and not paying insulin???? All this on my social security payment of $1200. even though I worked my life and put into social security...how about they give me my money back and I'll pay full price for all???
In the last year, medicare will not cover insulin for pumps anymore. I have changed supplies three times and cannot find one to supply insulin for insulin pumps anymore so have to pay for the insulin instead of it being paid under durable goods. horrible...
Medicare insulin guidelines question. If you are insulin dependent non-type 1, what are you to use if your doctor prescribes insulin therapy? If it is not covered are you they suggesting that you not treat your diabetes? I have never been on oral agents with the exception of Metformin as an adjunct therapy only. Who is prescribing; my doctors or Medicare?
-Rebecca RN and LADA-fully insulin dependent
I'm an insulin dependent type 2, probably an LADA diabetic, who has only been on insulin since diagnosis. I switched to an insulin pump approx. 10 months ago and it has been no less than life changing. I feel better. More energy. I have been able to lose weight since I am no longer "chasing" yesterdays does of long acting insulin, which is said to not have a peak.Based on what I feel & my testing results I do not agree. My control has always been excellent due to my behavior. I have still had complications of DM.I feel the Medicare 2001-2004 criteria for pump therapy for non-type 1 diabetics is more and more outdated.Other countries have documented benefits. Patients are reporting benefits. The criteria is punitive for patients taking excellent care to control their DM vs patients who are out of control, that in itself does not make any sense.I thought using a pump would ultimately be more expensive than multiple daily injections (I was doing up to 6 a day).After 10 months the costs are break even with the added cost of long acting.It is time to re-evaluate pump therapy and join the modern age and use the excellent and continuely improving technological tools available to us to make DM treatment with intensive insulin therapy more palatable, comfortable, available and help those of us desperately trying to prevent complications by trying to maintaining excellent control.
Thank you, Rebecca RN
I'm a type 1 diabetic and have been for roughly 30 years. In addition I've been on Medtronic MiniMed insulin pumps (several different upgraded models over time) for approximately 15 years. I'm being told by my supplier of reservoirs and infusion sets, Medtronic, that it is a Medicare requirement that I must see my physician every 3 months (they claim this to be a Medicare requirement) in order for them to refill my prescription. I meet the Medicare criteria for pump use and haven't been able to locate any information on the Medicare site that I must visit my physician this often (4 times per year). Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks!
Pumps and Medicare are not compatible...unless you have $INCOME$
With a job, I paid $0 out of pocket and my pump, insulin and infusion sets/resevoirs were covered and cost me $5 - $15 per month...now that Im on Medicare, I pay $100 part B premium...anohter $160/mo in MedAdvantage fees, and pump supplies cost me approx $200/mo on top of all of that. So, after 10+ years of pumping...and 30+ years of Type 1 diabetes, I am now back on a sliding scale and 7 shots a day.
You are correct, A C-peptide test and a conncurrent fasting glucose are required by Medicare. Nice catch.
This information that is given here is not correct. For one thing, you need a c-peptide test with concurrent glucose >= 225 in addition to criteria a or b.
How stupid are these people in Medicare to think that they will not pay for injections of insulin???Lots of people cannot afford a pump or insurance will not cover it so this is why you pay $100 a month for???
Liberty Medical is my supplier for pump supplies and they told me that I would have a fasting blood sugar and a C-Ppeptide test doine at the same time.I didi this, had a bad infusion set so my FBS was 338 that day and now they refuse to send me supplies saying that Medicare will not approve them. Is this true?Also, M<edicare has the dumb rule that they will not pay for Insulin UNLESS it is used in a pump!!!How dumb is that for the people who cannot afford a pump????
I don't think this is right. A C-peptide test and Fasting Glucose is required in order to have Medicare pay under part B. So, if you know for sure and can document this criteria B please post it. I'm type 2 and been on a pump since June 2011 and will turn 65 in April and not able to qualify under part B. The c-pep test is to "weed out" the type 2 diabetic.
Any info you have please post...
My mother has been a practicing Type 1 for the past 25+ years and a new Medicare recipient. She recently found out that although Medicare covers her insulin pump, they DO NOT cover the sensors and AGM Transmitter necessary to use it, the cost of which is upwards of $80 a week. How can Medicare expect Type 1 patients to pay for these out-of-pocket?? Is she the only one encountering this problem with Medicare coverage??
Can you tell me how to find a Medicare contracted provider that will supply the insulin used in pumps.
Iam a practicing Type 1 for the past 44 years. I was diagnosed in 1967 at age 30. My Medicare HMO Blue provided me with an Animas Pump 3 years ago but now I could use a Dexcom CGMs to help with hypoglycemia unawareness and the dangerous unsafe conditions that very often occurs. How can I get my health insurance provider pay for a CGMs when they say that my health is important to them?

Automated Marketing Systems by Veretekk
World class marketing tools that empower the little guy and allow the average person the ability to achieve success!
Veretekk is all about "Spam free" marketing. For years as other systems used a single email verification process, Veretekk went further to employ a double-opt in model that prevented 100% of false submissions from ever getting on a member's email list. Furthermore, Veretekk is the only provider of permission based email marketing services that provides the public a simple email lookup tool that lists the date/time and IP address of each submission to the system from that account... along with local and global opt-out functions to prevent abuse.
We take ethial online marketing seriously... Veretekk's terms of service include strict anti-spam requirements. No one likes receiving unsolicited email. Plus, from a marketing perspective... untargeted bulk email blasting simply doesn't work! For those looking for that type of system, we encourage you to engage in the Veretekk community and you will find out about a wide range of other techniques that no only respect people's privacy, but actually produce successful results for your business!
VereMail verification systems. There are, however, a range of applications for which bulk emailing still applies. For example, uploading an email list of your existing customers (that have already granted permission to receive your email), or simply sending out your company newsletter to people that have signed up to receive it. Veretekk provides a full featured email publishing system, including an intuitive HTML editor for designing professional email templates. Each email you send out also gets published on its own URL, which can be used for SEO campaigns or simply archive purposes.
Create your own signup forms! With Veretekk's portable group form code, you can quickly and easily place code into your own websites, allowing visitors to signup for more information, request your newsletter, etc. When they do, the verification system will email them and when they click the link, they are added to your lead database and available throughout the rest of the system for use with any of the Lead Management tools.

1. Fugitive
Heat unrelenting beat down upon the southern plains, and mirages caused the ground and air to shimmer with a liquid translucence. He could feel it through his gloves, as Aragorn pulled himself painfully through a break in the rock wall and up onto a narrow shelf, gasping for air. Leaning against a looming granite monolith, he closed his eyes and pressed his left hand hard over his breastbone, feeling fresh blood leak from the wound to soak the layering of bandages. Once the hunter, now hunted in earnest, he had hoped that the journey through the desert lands of Harad would defeat his pursuers, and thus far it seemed to have worked. Only two had come for him, and the carrion hawks had doubtless stripped their bones clean after two days of lying on the sun-bleached plains. But even if I elude them, I doubt my strength will last 'til the next town, assuming I can find it! Aragorn thought, clenching his teeth as a convulsive shudder rippled through him. Wounded even ere he had fled, he had done what he could to stop the bleeding and guard against illness, but a hard journey prevented the slash from closing. And in spite of his precautions, he knew he was feverish. Exhaustion and short supplies did not help his predicament, and he sought now only shelter, a place where he could rest and recover… if that were his fate.
Opening his eyes, he gazed wearily down from his perch which overlooked a vast and ancient floodplain. Here and there, the ground shimmered white: there lay salt basins, evidence of Harad's lost seas. The sea! A sudden yearning to hear the roar of the waves as they crashed against the shores of Gondor flared in his heart. Two years and more it has been since last I set eyes upon it… since I crossed Anduin and came to this place. Nearly three years, in fact, since Thorongil had disappeared from Ecthelion's realm, shedding name and rank and all other signs of the West to take up the habit and speech of Harad. In that time, he had learned to hide in plain sight, even here where men were suspicious of strangers, and the Dark Lord's power held sway. After nearly thirty years of wandering, Harad was simply another place, another country, and its people were Men, no more and no less, and Aragorn was an adept mimic, well-versed in his art. But I am so weary of this, Aragorn thought, wincing as he dragged himself once more to his feet and stood, swaying slightly, in the shadow of the boulder. Drawn ever onward, to another name and another mask to hide behind, another role upon the stage that hosts this tragedy that Men call "life"… or is it a comedy? It matters little when one is alone. Arwen's face flashed through his mind, and he bit his lip hard enough to taste blood as a wave of heartsick longing swept over him. What I would not give to hear her voice, just once… in case.… He shook his dark head violently, rejecting the idea. Not to think of that now! While I have the strength, I must go on.
Slowly, taking great care not to make a misstep and plummet headlong to the rocks below, he made his way along the ledge. Rock like this was riddled through with caves, and where there was shade, one could find moisture enough to survive even the heat of the desert. On the ragged edge of feverish exhaustion, Aragorn did not notice the smear of blood he left behind on the rock face.
The Dog Days of summer had arrived with a vengeance, and all the land lay sweltering in the brassy afternoon sunlight. The streets of Dargalt were silent and empty, yet in the desert, a solitary figure moved. Indirkan squinted into the distance, and despite the scarf that shielded his mouth and nose from the dust, he felt a sneeze coming on as a hot breeze stirred. His dark hair hung in fine braids about his face, and the beads that traditionally ended them were a stark jet black, out of respect for those older and more seasoned than he. For Indirkan was yet a young man with little battle experience, and his father stood not high in the ranks of the Haradrim. A fallen family, his, or so they said: born of a line of the Unrepentant out of the dark days of the Kin Strife of Gondor, the family had fled south with the restoration of Anárion's line. But a traitor earns trust slowly–perhaps never–and the Haradrim were a people who placed much value on etiquette, on the infinitely refined and brutally ironclad codes that had evolved during the long years of war and struggle. Disloyalty was a sin that was never forgotten, and only power could cover it over. But as the long centuries passed, his family's wealth had dwindled, ending any hope of rising from the ashes of that centuries-old defeat.
Such a hopeless fate was hard for a young man to endure, and Indirkan was restless. On the one hand, he longed to prove himself, and thereby gain in standing and respect; but on the other, he felt himself riddled through with doubts. Dargalt, where dwelt his family, was a town little deserving the title of 'city' and it was far removed from tidings of war. Yet of late and at last, messengers had come riding: messengers out of Mordor bringing demands for more men in the service of Barad-dûr. Like all within the city's walls, he had been born to a regime that had not changed since the ending of the Second Age, and he knew well what he owed Sauron, Overlord of Harad. With his fellow citizens, he had gone to hear the commands that issued from the Great Tower, and to gaze upon the splendor of red and sable banners. The Messenger, proud and haughty, had been swathed head to foot in midnight black, upon which were embroidered in scarlet and gold the sigils of Mordor in Haradrim style, and Indirkan thought he had picked out the clan markings entwined in the design. Indirkan had stared as the brassy trumpets rang out, but the Messenger had not dismounted, disdaining to abandon his lofty perch and come among them. Indeed, he had held the crowd in silence for so long a time that even the Haradrim, accustomed to harsh discipline, had begun to shift uncertainly where they stood. Such arrogance was not uncommon among the high-born, and it might have troubled Indirkan little, accustomed as he was to the contempt of his neighbors, but that the Messenger's coal-black eyes had fallen upon him for a brief moment. And Indirkan, staring back, had felt a dread seize him.
For those eyes, darker than any he had ever seen, were as the depths behind the stars, empty and opaque. Not as the eyes of other men were those obsidian orbs, and insight had stabbed through him, sharp as a blade and as painful. Stained they are, those dark eyes! he thought as he began the ascent into the line of rocks that piled high above the plain. Stained with how much blood and suffering? What has he wrought, this one, to earn those robes? And intuition, certain as sunrise, replied instantly: murder. There had been a morbid quality to the other, as if the Man-form were but a shell inhabited by something inhuman, cruel…. And evil, he thought, shivering in spite of the heat. Since that day, he had lived in fear for his life, for he thought that surely he must have given himself away somehow, that such horror as he felt at the thought of serving such a one as the Messenger–and beyond him, the Overlord Sauron–could not possibly be concealed. Yet none had accosted him: his name had not been posted in the square upon the scaffold plate, nor had he been seized in the streets; his wanderings in the dry lands beyond the city had not been curtailed. For the first time, Indirkan began to think that his ill-fortune served him well, for people were accustomed to dismiss him, to ignore and overlook him so long as he guarded his silence. But how long will that be?demanded the nagging whisper in his head, despite his efforts to shut out such doubts as it voiced. How long, before some word or action of mine declares my unwillingness… my disloyalty? Or is it disloyalty? Ah, I know not, and I wish I could be free of this deadly game of silence!
That was why he spent his days in the desert, for though it tested a man harshly, it was at least clean. Here there are no others to judge, no others to scorn me–no others from whom I must hide my thoughts! Here there is space enough to reflect, he thought with vast relief, as he scrambled up among the rocky outcroppings that thrust at intervals from the earth. Shade was a precious commodity in such an arid land, and where others might see nothing but barren waste, Indirkan saw among these rocks a tiny oasis. Here might be found water, for the stones showed layering and were porous even at the base; and where there was water, there was life. Wending his way through the crevices, Indirkan's ascent was steady, and he marked well his trail, noting the hints of green clinging to the sheltered sides of rocks. Absorbed in his thoughts as he climbed up through a narrow chimney of rock, he almost missed it, but in the midst of his reflections, he stopped abruptly. A heartbeat passed, during which he knew not what precisely had caught his attention, but after a moment he perceived what his eyes had noted already: a darker mark upon the shaded-side of a high sandstone slab. Frowning, he approached carefully, and stretched out a hand to touch it. Damp… yet this is not water! For when he drew back his hand, his fingers were stained scarlet. Blood! This is blood! And not from an animal!
Feeling his hackles rise, Indirkan looked up sharply, searching the area for sign of danger. Away to his right, on the narrow ledge that led round the sheer rise of the rock formation, he noted another smear of blood, and rose slowly to his feet. As quietly as he could, he drew his dagger from its sheath, and followed the ominous trail. Already he suspected where it must lead, for as he rounded a bend, the ledge widened and plunged between two stony spires, ending in a deep patch of darkness: the entrance to a cave. A perfect hiding place for a bandit, Indirkan thought grimly. If bandit it be! There is little of worth in these parts, no trade wains that cross into Dargalt from this direction… who indeed would come here, other than I? The answer–someone similarly disaffected–did not inspire much hope, for Haradrim society made a virtue of fierce loyalty and equally fierce resistance in the face of the enemy. If I find him, he will fight, though the wound be mortal. I must be cautious!
So Indirkan advanced slowly, silent as a desert hawk gliding high over the sands. By the cave's mouth he paused to let his eyes adjust to the low light. And then, drawing a deep breath, he stepped within….
At first, he saw no one, only the vague shapes of rocks, yet a voice within him insisted that he was not alone. Indirkan scrutinized the cave's interior, wondering if he ought to retreat and return with help….
At that moment, he caught a hint of sudden movement out of the corner of his eye, and swift though he was, he turned too late. The dagger was knocked from his hand and skittered away out of sight. His assailant jabbed him hard in the solar plexus, and Indirkan felt all the air go out of his lungs in one shocked gasp as he collapsed to his knees. Sheer instinct, guided by training, let him lash out, directing his attack to the width of the other's body, seeking only to force him back. Thus he was quite surprised by the anguished grunt that came back as his opponent recoiled unexpectedly. Surprised as he was, Indirkan was not one to let an advantage slip away, and he lunged at the other, bearing him down beneath him. He felt the shock of impact jolt through them both, but either he had misjudged the other's condition or his enemy was better trained than he had guessed, for the blade of the other's hand slammed into the juncture of Indirkan's neck and shoulder, and the young Haradrim felt his arm go numb. Ere he could move to recover, he was thrust away expertly and with such force that he hit the rock wall of the cave, cracking his head, and he slid gracelessly to the ground, stunned. His ears rang and his vision blurred from the blow, and he felt his enemy's hands hard upon him as he slid into the darkness. His last sight, ere oblivion claimed him, was of brilliant silver-grey eyes in a fierce face, and then he knew no more.

|On Modules Whose Proper Homomorphic Images Are of Smaller Cardinality
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity, and let $M$ be a unitary module over $R$. We call $M$ H-smaller (HS for short) if and only if $M$ is infinite and $|M/N|<|M|$ for every nonzero submodule $N$ of $M$. After a brief introduction, we show that there exist nontrivial examples of HS modules of arbitrarily large cardinality over Noetherian and non-Noetherian domains. We then prove the following result: suppose $M$ is faithful over $R$, $R$ is a domain (we will show that we can restrict to this case without loss of generality), and $K$ is the quotient field of $R$. If $M$ is HS over $R$, then $R$ is HS as a module over itself, $R\subseteq M\subseteq K$, and there exists a generating set $S$ for $M$ over $R$ with $|S|<|R|$. We use this result to generalize a problem posed by Kaplansky and conclude the paper by answering an open question on Jónsson modules.
Keywords:Noetherian ring, residually finite ring, cardinal number, continuum hypothesis, valuation ring, Jónsson module

Qt Location API
The Qt Mobility (version 1.1.0 and higher) Qt Location API provides a map widget, routing, geocoding and reverse geocoding functionality. In addition to this Qt Mobility provides positioning and landmark functionality.
Installation process
- Install the latest Qt SDK (version 1.1 and higher)
- When installing the SDK you have to accept the T&C for the Location APIs
- Start developing software
- Register your application before deploying it to the store or launching your service.
For more information on the business options please read our FAQs.
Maps, routing, geocoding and reverse geocoding
The Maps and Navigation API is based on plugins.
Since most providers of mapping, geocoding and routing information offer no guarantees that their data is interoperable with the data provided by other services, the plugins are used to group the functionality per service provider.
The plugins are accessed via QGeoServiceProvider, and a Nokia based plugin is part of Qt Mobility. See the section The Nokia plugin for more details.
QGeoMappingManager *mappingManager = 0;
QGeoRoutingManager *routingManager = 0;
QGeoSearchManager *searchManager = 0;
QGeoServiceProvider serviceProvider("plugin name");
if (serviceProvider.error() == QGeoServiceProvider::NoError) {
mappingManager = serviceProvider.mappingManager();
routingManager = serviceProvider.routingManager();
searchManager = serviceProvider.searchManager();
Common classes
|Defines a geographic area
|Defines a rectangular geographic area
|Defines a circular geographic area
|Aggregates access to services which provide geographical information
The QGraphicsGeoMap class is the main class used for displaying and interacting with maps. It is designed for use within the Graphics View Framework, and is a subclass of QGraphicsWidget.
The QGeoMappingManager provides most of the functionality required by QGraphicsGeoMap. The details of QGeoMappingManager are mostly only important to plugin implementers, as regular users should not need to make use of QGeoMappingManager outside of the QGraphicsGeoMap constructor:
QGraphicsGeoMap *map = new QGraphicsGeoMap(mappingManager);
|Used to draw overlays on the map
|Support for displaying and interacting with maps
|Used to display a map and manager the interactions between the user and the map
Map objects
QGeoMapObject and its subclasses provide the ability to add graphics to the map specified in terms of coordinates and distances. QGeoMapObject instances can also be grouped into hierarchies in order to simplify the process of creating compound objects and managing groups of objects.
|Used to draw overlays on the map
|Support for displaying and interacting with maps
|QGeoMapObject used to draw a pixmap on a map
|Used to display a map and manager the interactions between the user and the map
|QGeoMapObject used to draw a polygon on a map
|QGeoMapObject used to draw a segmented line on a map
|QGeoMapObject used to draw a rectangular region on a map
|QGeoMapObject used to draw a route on a map
QGeoRoutingManager handles requests for routing information.
The requests are created as QGeoRouteRequest instances, which are passed to QGeoRoutingManager::calculateRoute(). The returned QGeoRouteReply instance will contain the result of the request when it is completed.
The QGeoRoute class describes the resulting route. Each route is broken up into a number of QGeoRouteSegment instances, with the division usually occurring at either user specified waypoints or at changes in the mode of transport, like when changing from a train to a bus.
Each QGeoRouteSegment has a QGeoNavigationInstruction instance which describes the instructions that would be issued to a user attempting to follow a route. These instructions a location, which is typically somewhere near the end of the associated QGeoRouteSegment, and instruction text describing how the next QGeoRouteSegment should be reached.
|Represents the information relevant to the point at which two QGeoRouteSegments meet
|Represents a route between two points
|Manages an operation started by an instance of QGeoRoutingManager
|Represents the parameters and restrictions which define a request for routing information
|Represents a segment of a route
|Support for geographic routing operations
Geocoding and searching for places
QGeoSearchManager handles geocoding, reverse geocoding and free-text search for places.
The free-text search will attempt to geocode text that looks like an address while simultaneously searching any landmark databases that the service pro. It is even possibly to add additional QLandmarkManager instances to the soures of data, so that users can search online databases alongside their personal offline landmarks store.
|Support for searching operations related to geographic information
|Manages an operation started by an instance of QGeoSearchManager
The Nokia plugin
Qt Mobility ships with a Maps and Navigation API plugin which accesses the relevant Ovi services provided Nokia. The use of these services is governed by the terms and conditions available in the file plugins/geoservices/nokia/OVI_SERVICES_TERMS_AND_CONDITIONS.txt.
The Ovi services plugin can be loaded by using the plugin key "nokia".
Note that accepting the terms and conditions only applies those terms and conditions to the use of the Ovi Maps Services plugin and does not limit the use of the other maps and navigation API plugins that may be included with the Qt Mobility package.
Implementing plugins
A plugin implementer needs to subclass QGeoServiceProviderFactory and as many of the ManagerEngine classes as they want to provide implementations for.
Subclassing QGeoServiceProviderFactory will only involve exposing a name and a version by overriding QGeoServiceProviderFactory::providerName() and QGeoServiceProviderFactory::providerVersion(), and overriding QGeoServiceProviderFactory::createSearchManagerEngine(), QGeoServiceProviderFactory::createMappingManagerEngine() and QGeoServiceProviderFactory::createRoutingManagerEngine() as appropriate.
|Are used as a bridge between QGraphicsGeoMap and QGeoMappingManager
|The base class used to define the parts of QGeoMapObject and its subclasses that are specific to a particular QGeoMapData subclass
|Interface and convenience methods to implementors of QGeoServiceProvider plugins who want to provides support for displaying and interacting with maps
|Interface and convenience methods to implementers of QGeoServiceProvider plugins who want to provide access to geographic routing information
|Interface and convenience methods to implementers of QGeoServiceProvider plugins who want to provide support for searching operations related to geographic data
|Factory class used as the plugin interface for services related to geographical information
Tile-based map convenience classes
Most of the current tile based mapping APIs are very similar, and so we provide a number of classes intended to make writing tile based mapping plugins much simpler.
If the Mercator projection and the most common tile addressing scheme is used this will mainly involve subclassing QGeoTiledMappingManagerEngine and providing an implementation of QGeoTiledMappingManagerEngine::getTileImage().
|Subclass of QGeoMapData provided to make working with tile based mapping services more convenient
|Manages a tile fetch operation started by an instance of QGeoTiledManagerEngine
|Represents a request for a map tile from a tile-based mapping service
|Provided to make writing Qt Maps and Navigation API plugins for tiled based mapping services easier
QML support
For details on the QML support provided for the Location API see the documentation for the Location QML Plugin.
Note: At the time of the Qt Mobility 1.1.0 release the QML support for the Maps and Navigation API is incomplete and likely to be refined and improved in the next patch release. Also note that on Symbian (as at Qt Mobility 1.1.0), the QML for the Landmarks API may not behave as expected due to a bug described in QTMOBILITY-611. There may be problems in updating a LandmarkAbstractModel element.

Two arrested in what police call 'drug deal gone bad'
Friday, September 27, 2013
Thursday night a man claiming to be the victim in the case disputed the police characterization of the incident.
Berwick police officers responded to a residence at 12 Jordan St. Thursday morning at approximately 9:48 a.m. after receiving a call that a number of individuals were involved in a fight with bats and knives. The caller also said someone had been thrown down the steps and a man had pointed a gun in another man's face.
Officers at the scene were able to retrieve the weapon that turned out to be a very realistic looking pellet gun.
From their investigation at the Jordan Street residence, officers determined that Kirk J. Hassen, 46, of 10 Bell St., had pointed the pellet gun in a man's face during the altercation.
Police claim the dispute resulted from an apparent "drug deal gone bad" when Hassen and John M. Tierney, 44, of 10 Bell St., went to the home on Jordan Street, resulting in the occupants having to defend themselves. Police didn't elaborate on what they called a drug connection.
"Me and that gentleman don't even know each other," he said of Hassen, explaining he was visiting a friend at the residence and knew nothing of a "drug deal gone bad."
The victim said Hassen had shown up at the home at 8 a.m. that morning and banged on the door for several minutes before he had to tell him to leave. An hour later Hassen apparently sent threatening messages to his friend's phone and then showed up at the home again.
"We were on the porch and he ended up coming over and up the stairs with his buddy and pulling the pistol in my face as he grabbed the front of me," said the victim. "I thought it was real and reacted."
The victim said he grabbed the barrel of the gun and engaged in a scuffle to gain control of it from Hassen. The victim then said he tried to talk reasonably with Hassen, but he wouldn't stop instigating a fight or leave the property.
The victim said Hassen called the cops himself.

The 4.70 GHz benchmarks are clearly throttled, try decreasing the clock one step
Phoronix: AMD FX-8150 Bulldozer Overclocking On Ubuntu Linux
While in the weeks since the launch of the AMD FX "Bulldozer" processors we have looked at many areas of computing performance for the FX-8150 CPU, from the compiler tuning to multi-core scaling, one area that hasn't yet been covered under Linux is the AMD FX-8150 overclocking. But this article changes that.
The 4.70 GHz benchmarks are clearly throttled, try decreasing the clock one step
Indeed, keeping 4.7ghz was quite useless, obviously with sporadic performance and huge power fluctuations it was clocking itself down. I would be curious to see if there is a setting somewhere between 4.42 and 4.7 that yeilds better results.
Not being very interested in overclocking, I vaguely remember Cool&Quiet being incompatible with BIOS overclocking. Is that still a problem?
So after all the benchmarks, what's the final verdict? Is Bulldozer promising or a flop? Seems like I've seen results that point both ways, even within the same application type. I'm still trying to decide if it's something I want to upgrade to in the near future, and all the benchmarks I've seen have just confused me more.
A decent amount of performance boost can be achieved with the stock air cooler, while keeping power usage low.
By slightly raising the "FSB" clock (215MHz), and raising *a lot* the TurboCore multiplier (>4.6GHz) you'll see that the system is perfectly stable.
But raising the main CPU multiplier is relatively harder !
I've spent little time playing with the BIOS, so my granularity is high, but AFAICT I can't go past 4.1GHz with a *completely* stable system.
The "pts/cpu" benchmark suite ran in a loop and I thought the system was stable, then I compiled a kernel (--jobs=10), which yielded issues.
Did it again, got a lot of invalid instructions, segfaults, oopses, depending on whether the CPU decides to crash in user or kernel space...
The reported CPU temperature was less than 70°C, be it for the CPU sensor or the mainboard socket sensor (which conditions the fan speed).

Extend the guest run!
Big props to the guest blogger. Looking forward to hearing more from both contributors. The Santa Fe trail sounded familiar. I had initially thought that the Settles may have gone on it when they did their wagon train stint, but I had been thinking of another trail. Oh well.
Somewhat disappointed by the non-twine stop, but the concrete guy was interesting enough.
Peace, AJO
Day 4: Oz

As you might guess, this guest stint is the result of a challenge. I just hope my entry goes better than my day. Let me explain.
Ann hates Kansas. Well, perhaps that is too harsh, but she's been here, (and thinks) she's done that. And she's a firm believer in the stereotype that Kansas is pre-Aquinas/Copernicus/Galileo/Columbus, that is f-l-a-t, FLAT. And boring, she adds. Even though this is my first trip to the sunflower state, I set sail for the Orient, that is, to prove it wasn't flat, or something like that
Not 5 miles from our departure point in Manhattan, we came across a "scenic overlook." Unfortunately, it was neither. See picture.
OK, not to be deterred, we started to discuss what excursions to take off of I-70. We settled on "The Garden of Eden" -- one man's visionary art, or so the sign claimed. We took a tour to see behind the curtain of one man's work/art/hobby/passion/insanity. (The tour consisted of 5 minutes of words from a disinterested teenager.) At the age of 64, S.P. Dinsmoor took to working in cement around his house. When his wife protested that she didn't get to see him enough because of his work, he sculpted a rough depiction of himself waving and set it so that she could see it from the kitchen window. Then back to his art. It all started w/Adam and Eve, and went on to include some other biblical scenes before engulfing his entire yard, surrounding the house, and tackling many socio-political issues. Most notably, he appeared to have a special rage for big business. See the pictures. He died some 75 years ago, but his body rests in a cement chamber he built -- glass encassed just like he wanted. And yes, we saw his remains
Next we stopped at the Cathedral of the Plains (St. Fidelis) in Victoria. Heck, it was Victoria. When it opened, it claimed to be the largest church west of the Mississippi. I guess they thought all those Irish immigrants that were coming at the time would just keep coming. Didn't look like it, so the place is a bit out of place, but impressive still. Those yellow bricks are local limestone and it looks well maintained.
Next, I played the history card. We took our longest detour of the trip -- some 100 miles roundtrip -- straight south to Fort Larned Nat'l Historic Site, a frontier fort that protected the Santa Fe Trail in the late 1800s. Barrack buildings, a pretty tall flag post, a cannon, even a volunteer in period garb couldn't elicit much enthusiasm from Ann for the state. And you'll see even Abby couldn't muster her usual joy at being in a NPU (nat'l park unit)
Upon return to I-70, it was exit stage right. Of course that meant 100 or so miles and being threatened by a wicked storm from the west, a wall of a thunderstorm (hail, rain, and wind -- didn't see any twisters). And to top it off, Kansas even threw two actual real life tumbleweeds at us over the last couple of miles. We rode it all out along the road and entered Colorado. But don't think Rockies just yet; this part of CO is flatter and straighter than anything in KS, but go figure, Ann didn't mind so much.
The scorecard:
Distance: thanks to that long detour, we finished at an even 500 miles for the day, though you wouldn't guess it looking at the map. Covered Kansas and entered Colorado (state # eight).
NP Stamps: Fort Larned NHS; Santa Fe Nat'l Trail
Scenic Beauty: not so much. (Though Mr. Dinsmoor might say that depends on the beholder.)
Spirituality: some
The bizarre: off the charts
Abby meltdowns: nothing that qualifies, I guess her heart wasn't in it today
Staying over: Stratton, CO
Final call on Kansas: ?? inconclusive; it'd be a tough sell to get Ann back
Yesterday's answer was Fort Riley. Credit goes to Andy. (Night night, niece!)
Question: Russell, Kansas boasts that it is the boyhood home of what current US Senator?
PS: Not making today's cut was a visit to the "largest ball of twine in the world." It is in Kansas, and was within striking distance. I know, I apologize to you the reader. In our defense, we thought long and hard about it, really twisted ourselves up in knots over it, but in the end decided it would have changed the way we look at twine. And that's too much to ask. But alas, for you twine dreamers (and really, isn't the largest ball of twine the perfect meaningless roadside attraction) out there, we have not spoiled it for you. We say to you, stop looking for it in blogs, look within, then hit the road and find your own ball of twine, whatever that may be. There's no place to start like home.
Thanks for reading, tomorrow your regularly scheduled blogger returns!!!! (But I wonder how she feels about Nebraska on the return trip???)
Trip plans were pretty clear until today -- wanted to see the Arch, wanted to travel across Kansas -- but now our plans are more open. Probably will head through Denver and take an easier day, that is, stopping in Colorado, perhaps the Vail Valley area along I-70. We'll see.

Kansas and the Wizard of Oz
After my first adult visit to Kansas (was apparently there as a child) I could understand why it was picked as the place Dorothy blew FROM. Have since traversed in many times, and I regret to say Ann may have inherited an anti-Kansas bias from me. I have TRIED to love it, but it's still my #49 rated. There's hope because I've yet to get to N. Dakota..Good job guest blogger! I do have a bloggestion..In addition to telling us where you've been, could you tell us where you're aiming for the next day Kansas dreamin', Mom
Kansas - Colorado
I am impressed with your journey.
The pics and the narrative makes me feel as if I'm in the thrid seat of the Odyssey. Are we there yet?
Paul & Ann: I vow to stay.
I also love the games. In a surprise, I do know this one. The answer to the trivia question is PA Senator Arlen 'Skippy' Spector.
Keep the pics coming.

Enjoy wonderful scenery as you cross the Apennines to La Spezia, a small city with a rich naval heritage. Take a short train ride from La Spezia to the villages, where you will enjoy spectacular views of the Cinque Terre region, where the beauty of the rugged cliffs and romantic fishing villages once inspired Lord Byron. If you wish, you can walk along the famous Sentiero dell'Amore (Love Path), a breathtakingly beautiful trail carved into the rocks that affords dramatic sea views. (B,D)
Another day to either rest or enjoy charming Salsomaggiore. Why not stroll along its tree-lined avenues or take advantage of some of the renowned wellness treatments for which the city is famous? Alternatively, join our optional excursion to Bologna. (B,D)
