Larry King , who dominated prime-time cable news before falling behind Bill O'Reilly of Fox News and MSNBC's Keith Olbermann , ended his 25-year run at CNN with an interview of former President Bill Clinton .
Larry King says "CBS Evening News" anchor Katie Couric is the best choice to succeed him as host of a prime-time CNN talk show.
Larry King , who has interviewed presidents and Hollywood royalty on CNN for a quarter of a century, said he will end his nightly talk show.
He'd heard it so often he began to believe it himself. Too young. Not up to the task. Didn't deserve it. Only there because of his name.
Billionaire Carlos Slim's wireless carrier America Movil SAB is funding an online TV network that will star former CNN talk-show host Larry King.
Larry King, a former CNN talk-show host, will join Kremlin-backed RT television, a year after Wikileaks founder Julian Assange debuted on the Russian network.
CNN , the 24-hour cable news network owned by Time Warner Inc. , hired "America's Got Talent" judge Piers Morgan to replace talk-show host Larry King .
"I do not think that I'm special in any way, but I think most people do pull themselves together, do what it is they need to be done."
- Larry King on Dec 07, 2010

From Milwaukee, Madison and beyond, a daily dose of political news and glimpses behind the scenes
Dems tease Ryan on marathon time
Charlotte, N.C. -- This is silly, but here it is.
Some anonymous Internet wag has made up a "Paul Ryan Time Calculator" that takes users' actual marathon times and converts them to Ryan time -- a joking reference to Ryan's recent mistaken shortening of his marathon finishing time.
Last week, Ryan told a radio host he had run a marathon in less than three hours. But after Runner's World magazine discovered Ryan had posted a time of slightly more than four hours in the only marathon he ever ran, the Wisconsin congressman released a statement conceding he had misstated his time in the 1990 run in Duluth, Minn.
The website, which appeared online Monday, allows users to type in the time they ran a race, the distance of the course and their gender. Then it calculates a "Paul Ryan-adjusted" time and compares it to the world record. In each case, the "Paul Ryan-adjusted" time is about 27% shorter than the actual time, the same proportion by which Ryan was off in reporting his marathon time.
AllPolitics could not immediately determine who built the website. The domain was registered through Domains by Proxy, a company that handles website registrations for clients who want to keep their identities secret.
President Obama's political strategist David Axelrod joked on Twitter on Tuesday,"Ryan vows to finish 63-day campaign marathon in 42 days!"
Ryan, the vice presidential nominee, has insisted that he can help running mate Mitt Romney win the campaign race in Wisconsin and the presidency -- that would be having the last laugh.
Jason Stein reported from the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, N.C., and Larry Sandler reported from Milwaukee.

Get Sport24 on your mobile
England exited the tournament at the last 16 stage with a record World Cup finals 4-1 loss to arch-rivals Germany in Bloemfontein on Sunday.
Trailing 2-1, England had a 'goal' from midfielder Frank Lampard that went in off the underside of the bar disallowed by officials even though replays showed the ball had crossed the line.
But the injury-prone Owen, in a thinly veiled attack on England manager Fabio Capello, said he believed the game was up when the Italian stuck with the 4-4-2 formation.
"There is no-one in the world who can convince me that the German players are better than ours, but after seeing our team line-up I knew we were going to lose," Manchester United forward Owen wrote in the Daily Telegraph.
"I don't think it is down to our players so much; I just feel their formation has basically beaten ours.
"We were outplayed due to being tactically beaten.
"The days of 4-4-2 against a good team are going. I hoped the manager would revert to 4-5-1 as soon as we met stronger teams."
Owen's words were backed up by former England captain Terry Butcher, who also questioned players' commitment to representing the national side.
"We've paid Capello an awful lot of money, we've been under his stewardship for what, 18 months now, and we're still playing 4-4-2, which we were playing in the World Cup in 1982," Butcher said.
The former centre-half added: "Does it mean as much to play for your country as it did before? I don't think it does.
"They don't get paid by England, they get paid by their clubs, so you can understand the manager saying 'don't get injured, you've got a big Champions League match, a big game in the Premier League next week'."
And Alan Mullery, who won 35 caps for England between 1964 and 1971, insisted the players had to take the bulk of the blame for the team's exit, saying: "Throwing everything on the manager is very unfair, he wants the players to go out and play.
"They let the English public down and they let Capello down because none of them played to the level of ability that we know they've got."
Meanwhile injured England captain Rio Ferdinand, who had to sit out Sunday's match, was still trying to come to terms with Lampard's disallowed goal.
"If Lamps' goal had stood it would have been 2-2 and then the game would've turned on its head," the Manchester United defender told the Sun. "I'm sure we'd have gone on to win it."
Ferdinand tried to repair relations between the England team and their fans that were damaged when striker Wayne Rooney, a United team-mate, criticised supporters for booing the side after the goalless draw with Algeria.
"I understand fans' anger," Ferdinand said.
"They pay their hard-earned money to watch us all over the world so that (booing) is part and parcel of it."

It appears that the boat you chartered is a Lagoon 420 which is a new electric cat. There have been a lot of problems with these boats in charter and the systems are complex. It also in charter use if you run the AC has a very high fuel burn. Almost double a conventional cat. I would have considered another boat with a converntional setup. There are very few people who understand this boat and how to maintain it. Even the factory reps don't understand some of the issues that have come up. I would put this more on the boat then the charter company. On the subject of VHF calls you do realize that VHF is line of sight and has limited range. The potential of a Lagoon 420 type boat is great but the reality is not quite there yet. If you want a trouble free trip stick with a standard boat.

|A very sophisticated New York City Federal mahogany library table, with canted corners, four spiral turned and acanthus carved supports, with finely carved projecting feet, circa 1810-1815, possibly made by the workshop of by Duncan Phyfe. It is imperative to clearly state that a number of qualified artisans in the city, such as James Budd, Michael Allison, John Gruez, or Charles H. Lannuier could have been the maker of this robust and prestigious table. The ebullient and lavish mahogany veneers and solids are dazzling and are clear indications that this table was the work of a superior New York City cabinetshop with proficient carvers and accomplished turners. A card table, made by Charles H. Lannuier, shows the same construction on the plinth base, which, likewise, has dovetail joints at the canted corners where the legs are adhered. The combination of the bold spirals and acanthus tipped colonnettes are refined features that are also seen on related tables attributed to Phyfe. Phyfe made a bed with this same carved details for his daughter, Eliza, with a similar congruency (Fig 1; Nancy McClelland, Duncan Phyfe and the English Regency, New York, 1939, p. 132, fig. 114). This table combines all of the finest design elements utilized by Duncan Phyfe in the early 19th century: A solid mahogany top, with canted corners, a finely carved water-leaf component at the tables upper-tip support, graceful spiral shafts, and protruberent saber legs, which are surmounted with carved acanthus leaves above four lions feet resting on brass casters. Costly features such as these would place this table as one of the most expensive forms available to wealthy patrons of New Yorks cabinetmakers. The table is shown in pre-conservation or estate found status and and glows with a deep and lustrous patina of age. Other than the brass pull, which is absent, the table is in remarkable condition, including the finish, that is possibly original.

Gerardo Concepcion threw five innings, allowing two runs (one earned) on six hits and a walk with four strikeouts and two wild pitches, but the Giants rallied for three runs off two relievers and edged the Cubs 5-4 in Cactus League Extended Spring Training action this morning at Indian School Park Field #1 in Scottsdale, AZ. This was Concepcion's third Extended Spring Training appearance. He threw 36 pitches in his first outing and 69 in his second, before upping his pitch count to 88 today. Over 11.1 IP at EXST, Concepcion has allowed seven runs (six earned) on 14 hits and four walks, with 11 strikeouts, three wild pitches, and a 10/12 GO/FO. Concepcion is technically on the Daytona Cubs 7-day Disabled List, but he looks to be 100% healthy (as evidenced by his outing today).

Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Decided to head to a quieter town after 5 nights of partying in Hvar and Lumbarda was a perfect place to do so. My time at Apartments Luka was thoroughly enjoyed and made all possible by the lovely owner Maja. Room had a great view over the town and was very comfortable. Maja was there to help you at a drop of a hat and even did our washing for us at no charge. Highly recommend this accommodation if you are heading to this great little place!!

Amazing apartment. Really clean and modern with comfortable beds. We had a little kitchen area which came in handy and our own bathroom. We had a beautiful view over the harbour. We could also walk down to the bottom and go for a swim in the sea. The owner was super friendly and very helpful. Overall an excellent stay at a lovely apartment. Highly recommend!

Top 20 DJ Mixes of 2013 So Far
Once upon a time, DJ mixtapes were for the faithful. Today, it's the opposite – everyone can access them, and more and more, they do. By the time you finish this sentence, 20 more livecasts and podcasts, club and stadium sets, amateur and pro, old and new, will go up on SoundCloud, and 20 more on Mixcloud. It's overwhelming, but it's also a treasure trove, as this chronological selection of 20 of the best we heard in the first half of 2013 proves.
MK, FACT Mix 366 (January 21st)
Disclosure broke garage to American EDM youth, but the sound was incubated in the early-Nineties remixes of Detroit-born New Yorker Mark Kinchen, a.k.a. MK. Their gorgeously cut-and-pasted vocal trickery inspired future Daft Punk collaborator Todd Edwards – and then London in the late Nineties. Two decades later, MK's in L.A. and the trick still works. This mix highlights his recent fruit – notably, scintillating remixes of Lana Del Ray's "Blue Jeans" and Storm Queen's "Walk Right Through."
The 25 DJs that Rule the Earth
Tensnake, Essential Mix (February 16th)
Hamburg DJ Tensnake's approach on his 2010 club banger "Coma Cat" – friendly, assured, patient – typifies this Radio 1 showpiece. It begins slowly, with Alice Coltrane, but rides a steady arc to far giddier grooves – especially the second hour, where Todd Terje's remix of Hot Chip's "How Do You Do" and a yet-untitled new one from Tensake mesh easily with house classics like T-Coy's "Carino" and Röyksopp's remix of Felix da Housecat's "What Does It Feel Like."
Truss / MPIA3, RA.351 (February 18th)
Nail-hard, back-to-basics techno – the kind of machine-oriented music that made Surgeon and Adam X underground DJ kings in the mid-'90s – has been on an upswing recently. London producer Tom Russell is a prime example, as both Truss and MPIA3. His edition of dance site Resident Advisor's podcast works as a primer for this new wave of brutalist techno, grounding it in Nineties touchstones by Der Dritte Raum and Pilldriver, and letting melody seep into the assault.
Atoms for Peace, Essential Mix (March 9th)

Megyn Kelly opened the October 8 edition of Fox News' America Live by attacking the Obama campaign for describing Mitt Romney's debate performance as untruthful, and contrasting it with reactions to Rep. Joe Wilson's "you lie" outburst during President Obama's 2009 speech to Congress on health care reform. But she didn't note that Wilson's accusation was actually false, while many of Romney's assertions were provably false. Kelly also absurdly equated statements on political talk shows with actions in Congress, which are governed by rules of protocol.
Right-wing media are offering GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney advice for the upcoming presidential debate. They suggest Romney should push economic myths to attack Obama's record, "smack the president," and get under Obama's skin.
Fox News figures have routinely invoked Ronald Reagan while discussing Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his running mate, Congressman Paul Ryan. Most recently, Fox compared Ryan to the former president by splicing together their quotes and saying that Ryan and Reagan are physically and ideologically similar.
Fox News is obscuring the negative impact of Congressman Paul Ryan's Medicare plan on seniors by accusing President Obama and the Democrats of "stoking fears" about the plan. In fact, Ryan's plan would adversely affect current and future seniors, forcing them, among other things, to pay more for prescription drugs, and it would create a voucher system that would drive up health care costs.
Right-wing media have claimed that Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) is "the ideological heir" to Ronald Reagan, while ignoring a big part of what makes this statement true: Reagan and Ryan both supported policies that vastly increased the federal deficit.
On Saturday Mitt Romney named Rep. Ryan as his running mate, resulting in praise from right-wing media figures. Rush Limbaugh proclaimed that Ryan is "from the camp of Ronaldus Magnus."
Fox News digital politics editor Chris Stirewalt claimed Ryan was the "ideological heir to Reagan's movement." Fox News contributor KT MacFarland said: "With a Romney-Ryan ticket, it's like Reagan again." And Fox host Andrea Tantaros claimed Ryan "sounds very Reaganesque."
But none of them mentioned one of the most important similarities between Ryan and Reagan: the fact that, while they talked about reining in deficits, they both supported policies that vastly increased the deficit.
According to the Office of Management and Budget's historical data, during his presidency, Reagan saw federal spending increase by 22 percent. Additionally, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics the federal deficit nearly doubled under Reagan, going from about $790 billion to $1.55 trillion.
Reagan also signed debt ceiling increases 18 times during his presidency.
Similarly, Ryan's most recent budget would explode the deficit over the next decade.
Last week, two new reports -- released by the Brennan Center of Justice at the NYU School of Law and the University of Delaware's Center for Political Communication, respectively -- further undermined the conservative media's discredited claims that voter ID laws do not have a discriminatory impact on persons of color and are not intended to be discriminatory on the basis of race. These reports are timely because as restrictive voting rules in conservative-leaning states increasingly materialize, civil rights advocates are noting that these state laws look very much like poll taxes- voter suppression tactics long prohibited. In response, the right-wing media has recycled multiple messages to disavow the impermissible racial discrimination of these laws.
Right-wing media try many different smokescreens in addition to just denying the racial effect of voter ID laws and redistricting altogether. For example, they have disputed the veracity of data to the contrary, argued that these tactics are not in fact barriers, and raised the specter of voter fraud, which experts have demonstrated is practically non-existent. However, it is still the first defense -- that these efforts have no racial effect -- which feeds most effectively into the right wing's preferred "colorblind" narrative.
This right-wing media denial of the racial effect usually has two components in an attempt to whitewash voter suppression, claiming that whatever effect these laws have on communities of color is wholly incidental. That is, there may be a discriminatory impact, but there is no discriminatory intent. Although the editorial page of The Wall Street Journal may have been the most recent mainstream purveyor of this message -- condemning any criticism of the recent wave of conservative-backed voter ID laws as "racial politics" -- they are far from alone in the right-wing media.
From the July 13 edition of Fox News' America Live:
Loading the player reg...
After erstwhile team player Chief Justice John Roberts led the Supreme Court in upholding the Affordable Care Act, Fox News has spent the day trying to convince themselves, if not the rest of us, that this is excellent news for Republicans and Mitt Romney -- to the point of arguing that President Obama's "cynical" political team would have preferred the law be struck down entirely so the whole issue would just "go away."
A little while ago, Megyn Kelly sat down to talk with Chris Stirewalt, Fox News digital politics editor, about the electoral implications of the Supreme Court ruling. Stirewalt argued -- in all seriousness -- that President Obama's re-election team in Chicago were pulling for a full repeal.
STIREWALT: I can sum it up this way: at the White House, it's a good day. The president's probably very happy that he was vindicated by the Supreme Court. But out in Chicago, at the president's campaign headquarters, this can not have been the happiest news. I'm sure, from a cynical political perspective, they much rather would have had this issue go away and the Supreme Court take it down so the president could go rally the troops. Instead, it's Romney's troops who are rallied.
This is a real stretch, and here's Nate Silver of the New York Times explaining why:
It is not as though, if the law had been struck down, Republicans would have stopped talking about the folly of the legislation. Members of the public, in mostly opposing the law, had not been objecting to its technical details, some of which they actually supported when quizzed about the specific aspects of the health care overhaul.
Instead, it was to the impression that it represented an overreach on behalf of Mr. Obama -- at a time when there is profound skepticism about the direction of government and the efficacy of its policy -- that left him vulnerable.
When the dust settles, it seems implausible that Mr. Obama would be have been better off politically had his signature reform been nullified by the court. Then Mr. Obama's perceived overreach would have had the stench of being unconstitutional.
Stirewalt's analysis is, thus far, the absurd apex of Fox News' health care coverage today. It was preceded by a parade of GOP officials chest-thumping about how they're so angry and energized now, fond reminiscence of the heady days of 2010 when shaky-cam videos of barely coherent tea partiers screaming at Democrats were all the rage, and endless repetitions of the word "tax" (in accordance with Republican messaging).
But I suppose we can forgive Fox News for acting a bit irrationally. They clearly expected the ruling to go the other way and no one really handles betrayal all that well.

Right-wing media have been on the attack against President Obama since he responded to a question about the Supreme Court's consideration of the Affordable Care Act by pointing out that conservatives criticize "unelected" judges who engage in "judicial activism" to "overturn a duly constituted and passed law." As we pointed out yesterday, Obama is correct: conservatives have for years railed against "unelected" judges who rule in ways they dislike.
Today, Fox News digital politics editor Chris Stirewalt found a new angle from which to approach the issue. In an interview with Megyn Kelly, the host of Fox "straight news" program America Live, Stirewalt criticized Obama for pointing out that conservative commentators criticize "unelected" judges, saying: "Now, no offense to Charles Krauthammer and no offense to any of the circuit judges in the country, but they're not the president of the United States." In fact, former President George W. Bush criticized "unelected" judges who made rulings he thought were incorrect.
Here's Stirewalt:
And here are remarks Bush gave to the Federalist Society's 25th annual gala, in 2007:
For the judiciary, resisting this temptation is particularly important, because it's the only branch that is unelected and whose officers serve for life. Unfortunately, some judges give in to temptation and make law instead of interpreting. Such judicial lawlessness is a threat to our democracy -- and it needs to stop.
And in 2008, Bush commented that the "concept of a 'living Constitution' gives unelected judges wide latitude in creating new laws and policies without accountability to the people."

Led by journalists at Fox News, media figures have mocked the Obama administration for using the phrase "federal family" to refer to federal agencies involved in Hurricane Irene relief efforts, suggesting that the administration invented the phrase as a "euphemism" for "federal government." However, "federal family" is not a new phrase; it dates back to at least George H.W. Bush's administration and was regularly used by members of George W. Bush's administration when discussing disaster relief.
The last week has been a busy one on the net neutrality front, with a cadre of Democratic senators calling on Congress to preserve funding for net neutrality regulations, and the FCC announcing that those regulations, after many months of delay, will be entered into the federal register, thus opening the door for telecom companies to file appeals (Verizon has been chomping at the legal bit ever since their initial appeal was denied).
It's not surprising, then, that Republican officials are showing up on Fox News to get the anti-net neutrality message out. Last Thursday, Republican FCC commissioner Robert McDowell appeared on FoxNews.com's Power Play to discuss net neutrality, and got a big assist from host Chris Stirewalt in spreading misinformation about net neutrality rules.
Early on in the kid-gloved interview, Stirewalt described net neutrality as "the shorthand term for having federal regulations of the internet, FCC regulations of the internet." This is imprecise and, as we'll see in a minute, part of a broader falsehood. Net neutrality rules are not "federal regulations of the internet." They are regulations on internet service providers that prevent them from controlling user access to lawful content and discriminating against content providers.

Despatch Drop Bottom Solution Heat Treat Furnace
Product Announcement from Despatch Industries
Despatch is a proven supplier of Drop Bottom Solution Heat Treat Furnace Systems with over 180 systems designed, installed and certified worldwide over the past 75 years. The Aerospace, Military and Automotive industries rely on Despatch as a low risk supplier of this type of equipment.
Designed for heat treating large and small batches of aluminum parts, from castings to thin wall aerospace components, the systems usually include a bottom-load furnace with glycol and/or water only quench tanks, water rinse tanks, load cars to hold the work rack, and work racks. Despatch offers chiller systems to cool the quenchant solution for customers processing thin walled aerospace components as well as heated quenchant systems for processing thicker walled items such as castings.
These systems eliminate the material handling aspects related to salt bath type solution heat treat systems and allow companies to solution heat treat thin walled aluminum component parts with a quench cycle that is 7 seconds or less.
Typical designs utilize a connected quench tank, rinse tank and load cars that move together on a rail system beneath the furnace assembly. Crane systems can be provided to transfer the parts racks to and from the load/unload area, load car, quench tanks and rinse tank. A load hoist mounted inside the furnace lifts the parts rack up into the furnace, and then lowers the heated parts into the selected quench tank within seven seconds of the end of the heating cycle.
The glycol quench tank uses a heat exchanger/chiller system to control solution temperature. Hot water quench tanks utilized immersion heaters and heat exchangers to control water temperature at the required elevated temperatures. Quench tanks are designed to provide a uniform, "bottom up" solution circulation system for immediate cooling of treated parts. PAG reclamation/separation systems (poly alkylene glycol) can be provided with any Despatch solution heat treat system.
All systems are PLC controlled for semi-automatic or automatic operation and can be tailored for specific customer needs. All systems include the quality built Despatch Age Ovens and are designed for compliance with AMS 2750 and AMS 2770 requirements.

In the entranceway between an elevator car and a floor are two oppositely sliding doors. The approach of these doors is controlled by a detection system that senses the presence of objects between the doors. This system includes, on each door, a plurality of emitters which are vertically spaced apart the door edge, for radiating noncollimated light towards the edge of the other door. At the top and bottom portions of each door edge there is a sensor which can receive the radiation from the emitters on the other door edge. The emitters on each door edge are sequentially turned on and the sensors on the opposite door edge provide a corresponding signal as they are turned on, unless an obstruction is in the way, causing the detection system to generate a signal that thus indicates than an object is between the doors.
1. A method for detecting the presence of an object in the path of a closing sliding door, characterized by:
sequentially activating energy transmitters as the door closes, to transmit energy .[.between.]. .Iadd.from .Iaddend.vertically spaced apart points along one of the two vertical edges of the area closed by the door to a detector on the second of said edges, an imaginary line between the detector and each transmitter decreasing as the door closes and being at an angle greater than 0 but less than 90 degrees to the direction in which the door slides;
sensing the transmitted energy with the detector for producing an output signal in response to the energy;
sensing the output from the detector when the energy is transmitted from each energy transmitter and providing a door stop signal when there is no output from the detector when each energy transmitter is activated.
2. A detection system for detecting the presence of an object in the path of a closing sliding door, characterized by:
a plurality of energy transmitters located at vertically spaced apart points on one vertical edge of the area into which the door slides to a closed position;
a second vertical edge on said area that is substantially parallel to said one edge, the distance between said one edge and said second edge decreasing as the door closes;
an energy detector capable of providing an output signal in response to the energy transmitted by each transmitter, and is located on said second vertical edge at a position at which an imaginary straight line between the detector and each transmitter is at an angle greater than 0 but less than 90 degrees to an imaginary line defining the direction in which the door slides;
means for activating the transmitters sequentially as the door closes;
means for providing a door control signal when a transmitter is activated and an output signal is not produced by the detector each energy emitter and energy detector having relative motion towards each other as the door closes.
This application is a continuation of Ser. No. 06/755,966, filed on July 16, 1985, now abandoned.Iadd., which in turn is a continuation-in-part of Ser. No. 421,769, filed Apr. 26, 1982, now abandoned.Iaddend..
1. Technical Field
This invention relates to equipment for sensing that an object is in a defined space, in particular, a doorway, such as an elevator car doorway.
2. Background Art
In elevators it is common to use one or more sliding doors and to open and close them automatically. Consequently, often equipment is used that detects the presence of an obstructing body, namely a passenger, between the doors just prior to and during their automatic closure to control equipment to prevent the doors from closing more and, preferably, reopen them.
One such device puts a light beam in a path transvere the door opening and uses a sensor to detect an interruption of the light beam, which would occur if an obstruction is between the door. Then, upon sensing an interruption, the sensor issues a signal to the door control mechanism to alter the normal operation of the doors, preferably reopen them.
In usual practice that device has an array of light sources disposed on one side of the doorway, producing parallel light beams at different levels, and a corresponding array of photo-sensitive detectors arranged on the other door, for sensing those light beams, thus creating a system which can sense objects of different heights between the door. For maximum sensitivity, the light beams are generally collimated by a lens to ensure that each sensor is responsive to one light source.
This arrangement, although generally satisfactory, has a disadvantage: because the light beams are spaced apart from each other, objects between the beams are not sensed. For instance, an arm extended horizontally may fail to be sensed.
The sensitivity could, of course, be improved, for instance, by spacing the parallel beams more closely together, in effect, providing substantially contiguous light beams. But, that would be costly to implement, and, to maintain sensitivity, the light beams would need to be highly collimated to prevent stray light fron one sensor from reaching an adjacent--the wrong--sensor, as that could blind the sensor. The large number of photodetectors and their optical systems for beam collimation that would be needed would, of course, add significantly to cost. Mirrors may be used to extend the path length of a light beam from its source so that the beam traverses the door opening a number of times prior to striking a photodetector. But, while that reduces the number of detectors required, it also reduces the intensity of the light beam reaching each detector; thus, in the end, increasing the demands on beam optics.
Consequently, the simple array of spaced apart parallel beams has been widely accepted as being the best compromise of safety, efficiency and cost.
According to the invention, the area in which a sliding door moves is monitored for the presence of objects, as the door closes, through the use of energy emitters and detectors located along the vertical perimeter of the area. The emitters are sequentially operated, and if the energy path between the emitter and the detector is broken, a signal is provided to alter door operation. The emitters and detectors are arranged so that the sliding door moves is monitored for the presence of objects, as the door closes, through the use of energy emitters and detectors located along the vertical perimeter of the area. As the door closes, the emitters are sequentially operated, and if the energy path between the emitter and the detector is broken, a signal is provided to alter door operation. The emitter and detectors are arranged so that the light paths pass diagonally across the area. As the area gets smaller--as the door closes--the area traversed by each path shifts vertically and the paths compress, which increases the detection resolving power and sensitivity.
According to one aspect of the invention, energy emitters may be located vertically along one edge of the door, and detectors may be located at the top and bottom of the stationary surface opposite the door. Therefore, as the door closes, the path between each energy emitter and detectors shifts vertically. As a result, substantially all of the area is monitored as the door closes.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an arrangement of emitters and sensors disposed, according to the invention, or adjacent cooperating elevator doors.
FIG. 2 shows the arrangement of FIG. 1 as the doors approach each other.
FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 show other arrangements of sensors and emitters according to the invention.
FIG. 6 is a functional block diagram of an electrical control system for controlling operation of the emitters and detectors according to the present invention.
In FIGS. 1 and 2 there is a first elevator door 10 and a second elevator door 20. These doors, shown in an open position in FIG. 1, slide to open and close, and, as they close, the closure edge 11 of door 10 touches the closure edge 21 of door 20.
A plurality of elements, made up of emitters 12 and 22 and sensors 13 and 23, define a first "array" and a second "array" on the closure edges 11, 21.
The first array is comprised of the emitters 12 that are spaced apart from each other along the edge 11 and the sensors 13 that are at the top and bottom of the edge 11.
The second array, on the adjacent closure edge 21 (on door 20) is comprised of the remaining emitters 22 and sensors 23, which are on the edge 21.
The emitters may be light bulbs, LED devices or any radiation emitting device; for example, an infrared emitter that is modulated, so that its emitted radiation is distinguishable from background radiation of the surroundings.
Likewise, the sensors may be any device that is sensitive to the radiation of the emitters; yet, adapted to be insensitive to radiation other than from the emitters. Thus, the sensors may be photodiodes, phototransistors or the like, and these may be gated in synchronization with a modulated emitter for improved sensitivity.
The radiation from the emitters is not collimated, unlike related prior techniques that use lights and detectors in matched pairs, where collimation is required for good sensitivity. Consequently, each sensor actually receives radiation in a plurality of paths, each extending between the sensor and one of the emitters, as FIG. 1 shows.
In FIGS. 1 and 2, the plurality of radiation paths that extend between emitters and sensors are shown; each path is distinguished there by an alphabetic index that is indicative of the sensor, and a numeral that is indicative of the emitter at the ends of the path. From FIG. 2 it is apparent that these paths criss-cross, defining a network in space, the gap between the door closure edges 11 and 21, and that the space between these paths is smaller than in the prior art devices.
Electronic control circuitry for this purpose is well known. For instance, FIG. 6 shows a circuit that is provided whereby each emitter on opposite door edges is energized to emit radiation in a first sequence, and each sensor is monitored in a second sequence so that one emitter is energized and one sensor is monitored, at any time. For example, each of the emitters 12 is energized in sequence while one of the sensors 23 is monitored; then each of emitters 22 is energized sequentially while one of sensors 13 is monitored. After that, each of emitters 12 are again sequentially energized while the other (the second of the sensors 23) is monitored. Then the emitters of sensors 22 are again sequentially energized while the other (the second sensor 13) is monitored. The exact sequence is not important, although, in a preferred, basic operation, each emitter and a sensor combination that define a radiation path therebetween is respectively energized and monitored repetitively many times per second in some sequence. In FIG. 6, a clock 51 controls a shift register 52, which counts the clock pulses, on line 51a, producing a binary output at 52a. The binary output is provided to a decoder 53 which supplies, over the lines 53a, 53b, emitter drive and enable signals to emit drive systems EDS associated with the emitters 12 and 22. Each EDS contains a driver unit DR for powering each emitter that is operated by an enable signal EN and activation signal AS. The EN signal, which is supplied to a detector control DC, also activates a gate 57 which is connected to the output of an amplifier 58, which receives the detector (e.g., 23) output. As the register counts up, each emitter 12 (on one door) is activated, along with the detectors 23 (on the opposite door). Then the emitters 23 on the other door and the opposed detector 13 are activated in the same sequential manner. Once all the emitters are activated, the register is reset to zero by a RESET signal and the process then repeats. The repetitive process takes place as many times as the doors close. A destruction in the path between an emitter and detector will produce an output from the gate 57. The viewing angle of each detector relative to an emitter changes as the door edges move closer, and, as a result, the entire field between the moving doors is viewed. The output OUT from each DC unit is supplied to a LOGIC unit. It receives the EN signal and produces a DOOR CONTROL signal, to stop or reverse the door, if there is coincidence between an OUT signal and the EN signal, which indicates the presence of an object in the path of the doors.
Each path is thus monitored for obstruction once in an overall sequence, and, because the sensor does not receive radiation from other emitters and no other emitter is activated, the sensor is highly sensitive to the obstruction. For maximum sensitivity, the sensitivity of the sensors may be adjusted in synchronization with the energization of the emitters, since each path involves a unique combination of sensor and emitter. For example, the gain of an amplifier receiving a signal from sensor 13 may be higher when one emitter 22 is activating path C7 than when another emitter 22 is activating path A6.
With reference to FIG. 2, it shows the embodiment of FIG. 1, but when the doors are in a more nearly closed position, it will be seen there that the flux density in space of the radiation paths increases as the doors approach each other.
In its simplest form, the invention includes embodiments such as those shown in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5. Yet, those skilled in the art will recognize that because emitters are available at low cost in comparison with sensors, there are many possible geometric arrangements within the scope of the invention.
It is desirable, to produce a signal, that only one combination of sensor and emitter are active at any time; but, a combination of sensors and emitters may also be selected for simultaneous activity. For example, at the same time that an emitter on one edge and a sensor on the other edge are operative, a sensor on that one edge and an emitter on the other edge may be operative.
The circuits required to construct embodiments according to the invention may use multiplex techniques which are known to those skilled in the art from the foregoing.
Other modifications to the embodiment of the invention that have been described will be obvious to those skilled in the art, yet within the scope of the invention.

Technology developed by Biodesign Institute and Columbia University will be used alongside DNA transistor platform developed by IBM.[Andrzej - Fotolia.com]
Roche negotiated a license to nanopore-based DNA base sensing and reading technologies from the Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University and the Columbia University Nanoscience Center. The firm claims that these new technologies could help take the cost of sequencing a whole human genome down to well under $1,000.
The technologies will be used by Roche's sequencing center and collaborators 454 Life Sciences and IBM to develop and commercialize a single-molecule nanopore DNA sequencer. The deal was brokered by Arizona State University's technology transfer arm, Arizona Technology Enterprises, and includes sponsored research funding to help the academic researchers progress development of the technology toward commercialization.
"We believe that the DNA reading technologies from the Biodesign Institute are the most advanced available and will play an important role in our nanopore sequencing system," says Thomas Schinecker, president of Roche's 454 Life Sciences. "This will complement the DNA Transistor technology from our previously announced collaboration with IBM very well to form the core of a superior platform for extremely fast, very low-cost genome sequencing."
IBM's DNA Transistor technology is designed to control and slow the movement of DNA as it passes through the nanopore in a silicone strip. The DNA reading technology licensed from the Biodesign Institute and Columbia University will be used to decode the bases as the molecule passes through. Both technologies exploit semiconductor-based nanopores, which Roche says have advantages over protein-based nanoproes in terms of control, robustness, scalability, and production.

Members of the public are likely to have another say on the
best way to utilise the Forsyth Barr Stadium, it has been
The prospect was floated by Cr Richard Thomson at yesterday's
finance committee meeting, in response to a call for public
consultation on the stadium review's findings by ratepayers'
advocate Lyndon Weggery.
Mr Weggery, speaking during the meeting's public forum, said
the council had ''at least a moral obligation'' to consult
over the review's findings.
The stadium had been ''foisted'' on the city, but was a
reality now, and the review's findings would have a ''major''
impact on the council and the city, he believed.
''Now we have got it [the stadium], we have got to make it
work,'' he said.
Cr Thomson, the committee chairman, said the council would be
guided by rules governing consultation on significant
decisions, but consultation was likely.
Mr Weggery is the former chairman of the now-defunct Dunedin
Ratepayers and Householders' Association.
The findings of the stadium review are due to be made public
next month.

Disney's family comedy "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" will arrive in theaters on October 10, 2014. The movie stars the following actors:
Steve Carell
Jennifer Garner
Dylan Minnette
Ed Oxenbould
Kerris Dorsey
Megan Mullally
Jennifer Coolidge
Bella Thorne
Here's a description of the movie:
Disney's 'Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day' follows the exploits of 11-year-old Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) as he experiences the most terrible and horrible day of his young life—a day that begins with gum stuck in his hair, followed by one calamity after another. But when Alexander tells his upbeat family about the misadventures of his disastrous day, he finds little sympathy and begins to wonder if bad things only happen to him. He soon learns that he's not alone when his mom (Jennifer Garner), dad (Steve Carell), brother (Dylan Minnette) and sister (Kerris Dorsey) all find themselves living through their own terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Anyone who says there is no such thing as a bad day just hasn't had one.
We are loving these two new posters for the movie! Do YOU plan on watching "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" in theaters?

The Mars Orbiter mission will take off in October or November as planned, regardless of a comet also due to pass by the red planet when it reaches there next year. ISRO Chairman K. Radhakrishnan said that ISRO would not change its schedule. It would, in fact, like to study the comet and its impact too, along with looking at the Martian topography, environment and doing methane studies. "The Mars Orbiter schedule is on, the five instruments (built by ISRO centres) are ready," he said on the sidelines of a conference organised here. ISRO Thiruvananthapuram centre will start assembling the sub-systems and the PSLV-XL rocket by August.
Earlier this year, NASA had announced a comet passing by Mars at a distance of 50,000 km in September 2014.
The comet would be there when ISRO's Martian spacecraft travels over 10 months and reaches the planet about 400 km away — also by September 2014.

A bandh was being observed in Sangareddy and other towns of Medak district of Andhra Pradesh on Tuesday even as majority of the shops and business establishments in Old City in Hyderabad remained closed to protest the remand of MIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi.
The local unit of Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) had given bandh call in Sangareddy town, a day after Hyderabad MP Asaduddin was remanded in judicial custody by a court here in connection with a 2005 case against him for allegedly obstructing the then Medak Collector AK Singhal and other officers from discharging their duties.
The bandh witnessed a complete shutdown with shops, petrol pumps, cinema theatres, business establishments, educational institutions remaining closed in Sangareddy town.
The bandh in Sangareddy evoked a good response and was going on peacefully. However, state-run RTC buses were plying normally, officials said.
Police imposed prohibitory orders under section 144 CrPC and additional forces were deployed in Sangareddy town. Even some local MIM leaders were taken into custody as a preventive measure.
A bandh was also being observed in Zaheerabad and Sadasivapet towns of Medak district.
MIM supporters took out a protest rally from Eidgah grounds in Zaheerabad, but police stopped them near Baga Reddy statue on Tandur cross roads and took as many as 60 MIM workers and supporters in preventive custody who were later released.
Prohibitory orders were also imposed in Zaheerabad and Sadasivapet towns by police.
Though there was no official bandh call in Hyderabad, shops and commercial establishments pulled downed their shutters in several parts of the Old City while educational institutions also remained closed in protest against remand of Asaduddin.
As a precautionary measure, additional forces were deployed in communally sensitive parts of Old City since yesterday, with contingents of RAF also keeping a vigil.
The otherwise busy areas surrounding Charminar, wore a deserted look following the bandh-like situation.
Asaduddin was sent in judicial remand till February 2 by the Judicial First Class Magistrate (JFCM) and Prohibition and Excise Special Court in Sangareddy town yesterday after his plea for cancellation of the non-bailable warrant against him in the 2005 case was dismissed by the court.

|Spurs GM jokes about trading Tim Duncan
|Written by Admin
|Thursday, 26 June 2014 20:01
It's just that no one wanted Tim Duncan in a trade.
The tongue-in-cheek revelation was made by Buford late Thursday after he was asked if anyone other than UCLA forward Kyle Anderson was their top choice. The Spurs selected the 6-foot-9 forward with its first-round pick, No. 30 overall.
''Yeah, Wiggins and Parker were No. 1 on our board,'' Buford said.
So, the Spurs attempted to trade up?
''Yea, but just didn't figure out a way to get it done,'' Buford said.
Cleveland took Wiggins, the Kansas star, with the first overall pick. Milwaukee used the next pick on Parker, the standout at Duke.
So, neither team wanted Duncan?
''Exactly,'' Buford said, laughing. ''No matter how badly he wants to play for (Philadelphia coach and former Spurs assistant) Brett Brown, we just couldn't make it work. If Philly could have gotten one, we would have traded him to Brett.''
Duncan, who has exercised his $10.4 million player option to return for a 19th season, has led San Antonio to five NBA championships since being drafted first overall in 1997.

German bishops to investigate abuse charges
The German Bishops Conference will lead an investigation into all allegations of the sexual and physical abuse of students in Germany, a top prelate announced Wednesday.
That investigation will include examining allegations of sexual abuse at a choir once led by the pope's brother and looking into what, if anything, Pope Benedict XVI himself knew in his previous position as the archbishop of Munich, prelate Karl Juesten told the Associated Press.
Juesten, the liaison between Roman Catholic bishops and the German government, also praised the pope's brother, the Rev. Georg Ratzinger, for apologizing to victims on Tuesday for doing nothing decades ago to stop the beating of students.
More than 170 students at Catholic schools across Germany have said they were sexually abused years ago and others have made allegations of severe beatings.
The German abuse allegations are particularly sensitive because Germany is the pope's homeland and because the scandals involve the prestigious Domspatzen boys choir that was led by his brother from 1964 till 1994.
Juesten said it was not known if Pope Benedict, who served as archbishop of Munich and Freising from 1977 to 1981, was aware of any of the child abuse cases that took place then at Catholic schools and other institutions.
"We do not know if the pope knew about the abuse cases at the time," Juesten said. "However, we assume that this is not the case."
Marx will be "certainly investigating these questions," he said.
The Domspatzen choir led by his brother reported to the Regensburg Diocese and not to the archbishop of Munich.
Juesten also called Ratzinger's apology to the victims an act of courage.
"It is certainly not easy for such a man to publicly apologize," Juesten said.
Ratzinger, the pope's older brother, says students told him of allegations of physical abuse at an elementary school in Germany decades ago and apologized Tuesday for doing nothing about it.
Ratzinger had first said he was unaware of any abuse, and Juesten said that others should follow the 86-year-old Ratzinger's lead in coming clean.
"The other perpetrators should follow the example set by Mr. Ratzinger and apologize to the victims for the abuse they have committed," he said.
However, the pope's brother has said he was unaware of allegations of sexual abuse at his own Regensburger Domspatzen boys choir - incidents alleged to have occurred before Ratzinger led the choir.
A phone call to Ratzinger's home in Regensburg was answered Wednesday by a housekeeper, who said Ratzinger was not at home.
Last week, the Regensburg Diocese said a former singer at the Regensburger Domspatzen choir had come forward with allegations of sexual abuse in the early 1960s.
Another former choir boy there told daily Bild Zeitung on Tuesday that he and other boys was sexually abused by teachers at the choir's boarding school in the 1950s. Manfred von Hove was quoted as saying he "finally wants to have answers and find out who was responsible for the cover-up at the time."
He said he planned to sue the Regensburg Diocese for compensation.

Payment information is not entered, therefore it is not cached.
People just love to bash Apple Inc. I guess that comes with success. The latest is concern over a security matter with the iPhone.
The iPhone caches everything entered through its keyboard for as long as a year before it's deleted. This helps the mobile device automatically suggest words when typing to speed data input. It's a very helpful tool. End of story.
Well, I guess that's not the end of the story. The concern is that if you enter your credit card number it will be cached and as a result become a potential target for theft. This concern overlooks one major fact: Most retailers in mobile today either do not require you to enter any personally identifiable information or are moving to such a system.
Here's how mobile checkout is shaking out. I place my DVD into the Shopping Cart. I press Checkout. I enter my e-commerce account user name and password. I confirm that my default payment, shipping and billing information be used and press Buy. I'm done. No payment card or other personal information was entered into the mobile device.
First-time customers can create an account via mobile, and then yes, the payment card information is being tapped into the keyboard and cached. The number of people willing to go through the entire process of setting up an account with a retailer on a mobile device I believe is extraordinarily small. But yes, their card information is cached.
The point is, to be successful in mobile commerce, you can't have a checkout experience that requires a shopper to enter payment, shipping and billing information. It's too much work. People expect an optimized experience on mobile, and that includes an optimized checkout. And retailers know this, which is why they are creating checkout systems that don't require personal information.
In the rush to mobile, and there certainly is a rush on, retailers should not overlook security. And that's a big reason, in addition to speeding checkout to increase conversion, why retailers are enabling checkout with just a couple of swipes of the finger.
Fast-growing retailers are often racing against the clock as they move from one e-commerce platform ...
