High school soccer: No. 2 Alta topples top-ranked Brighton with 100th-minute free kick
Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
SANDY — There have been a lot of great chapters in the Alta-Brighton soccer rivalry, and Connor Sheffield made sure Tuesday's clash will be remembered with the best of them.
His 100th-minute free kick curled just past the fingertips of Brighton's 'keeper and into the upper corner of the net, capping No. 2 Alta's stunning double-overtime 1-0 victory over No. 1 and previously unbeaten Brighton.
Mere seconds from the final whistle of a past-paced, yet goalless Region 3 match, Brighton was whistled for a handball about 25 yards from goal. Sheffield's left-footed shot was likely going to be the last kick of the ball — whether it went in or not.
The senior struck the free kick perfectly, slipping it just around Brighton's five-man wall and into the goal, ensuring that Alta celebrated a win over nationally ranked Brighton instead of just a tie. Brighton came into the match ranked No. 11 in country according to MaxPreps.
"It was unreal," said Sheffield of delivering the dramatic game-winner. "That was a first."
With the win, Alta improved to 13-1 overall and 7-1 in region play, while Brighton fell to 12-1 and 6-1.
The Hawks came into the match with a chip on their shoulder after losing to Brighton 1-0 earlier this year on a first-half penalty kick at Rio Tinto Stadium, and that extra motivation showed defensively. It needed that extra focus defensively too against such a dangerous attacking team like Brighton.
The Bengals are a very gifted technical team, and they certainly enjoyed more of the ball throughout Tuesday's match at Alta. Each attacking movement though, no matter how promising, was always snuffed out by Alta's defense over the 100-minute match.
"Every time we play them, it's such a good game. It's so back and forth. Each team is going to get a break one game. They got it last game and we got it this game," said Alta center back Aaron Wooden.
Despite attacking into the wind during the first half, Brighton came out on the front foot, and was realistically unlucky not to score in the 27th minute when J Jones banged a shot from distance off the right post. Jones' shot was the only clear-cut chance Alta conceded during the first half.
With the tail wind in the second half, Brighton became increasingly more dangerous in the attacking third as strikers Matt Coffey and Ben Perkins continued to find space in front of Alta's backline. Unfortunately for the Bengals there was never space behind the back four to exploit.
"Everybody we put in gave it everything they had, and we had to have that," said Alta coach Lee Mitchell.
Late in regulation, Coffey nearly broke the deadlock with a driven tight-angled shot that bounced just past the post.
Late in the first overtime, Alta 'keeper Dylan McIllece made a diving save on a Coffey kick from roughly the same spot that Sheffield scored from in the 100th minute. When Sheffield had a similar chance, he made the most of it with his second goal of the season.
"Brighton-Alta is always a great game — good rivalry. It's always a hard-fought game, just glad to be a part of it," said Sheffield.

First of all, I'm sorry but I think we should place this at Cafe Infinity.
Second, well I think his butt is sore after sitting down there. So he wanna cross the street. BTW, do you know Crossy Road?
Sorry for the late post, but hi.
Do you at times wonder what the world will be like in a certain number of years? Things getting worse or better?
I always daydream about this. I even have songs in my phone that make me think I'm in the future.
237 ^ 3 = 13,312,053
It has been very weird that I go inactive a lot of times. I just have been so active in other websites. Now I just need to balance these activities that I need to do. So, hi.
235^3 = 12,977,875
Pick any 4-digit number at all (should not have the same digit throughout). Rearrange the digits to form as many 4-digit numbers as possible. From the range of numbers (including the one you first picked), subtract the least from the greatest. If the difference is a 2-digit number add the digits together.
The idea behind this is no matter what your answer will always be 9. Yes try it now.
1234 1243 1324 1342 1423 1432
2134 2143 2314 2341 2413 2431
3124 3142 3214 3241 3412 3421
4123 4132 4213 4231 4312 4321
Well, it's 4 digits but I'll go add it... 3+0+8+7 = 18 (1 + 8) = 9.
Worth that 10 minute typing. BTW, the name of the topic reminds me of a book I borrow in the library at my school.
Yeah, I know that it drags to not see you guys again for a long time, and I still hope you remember me. Well, in our place it's summer already, so I will get more active for two months, or even three.
So, I will get those posts counting it's been a long time stuck in the 2000's.
Late post. Can someone close this topic now?
231^3 = 12326391
Je ai juste traduit cela.
12 008 989 = 229 ^ 3
It has been a great 2014. Mathematically, 2015 is divisible by 13. But, we should still hope for a good year! Cheers
And, happy new year.
11697083 = 227 ^ 3

Episode Reviews (3)
Retrograde Petrification of a human body... idea taken from Doctor Who.
Retrograde Petrification of a Human Being was introduced as a medical/affilication of a human being first in Doctor Who (new) series 2, New Earth, with the Duke of New (new)4th or so power - new york... being treated for it in the medical building, a treatment that was not available for at least another century or so... It was then used again in Series four, episode 2, the Fires of Pompeii. Where there priestess's in training suffered from the affliction.
It was interesting to see a condition introduced on one show to be given a bit more coverage on another show.
So I see this tieing in Eureka, with Doctor Who, with Warehouse 13 and Torchwood, etc...
So come on writers- do a bit more colleraberation and tie all these shows together to make them seem as all a bigger picture - one big story over arch of all the smaller episodic shows.moreless
Finally! Some serious progression with laughs along the way.
I love this show, i really do. But i will also be the first to admit that throughout the season there is very little progression as far as characters and plot go. Typically we go humorous day by humorous day, which is cool, i laugh just as much as the next person.
But this episode! Talk about a jump!
Starting off with the best thing, Jack and Allison!!!!!!! finally finally finally! we see the picked up spark that got our hearts beating in the first season. And here i was afraid they were going to torture us for the rest of the season.....
But with the rise of one couple another must fall. Jo and Zane...yeah what's another complication. Zane and zoe, can't say i didn't see it coming at one point, but that doesn't mean i have to like it. I still have hope for the zane and jo pairing, i'm just not expecting it anytime soon now. This should be interesting.
Let's not forget Henry singing Mgm style in Gd!!! my jaw practically unhinged at the sight! Completely romantic if a little corny, still cool enough to be appreciated. Rootin for ya Henry!
THe plot (Outside of the characters) was pretty good, definitely had me worried for a second despite the knowledge that its was the last ten minutes so they had to figure something out soon.
The grant plotline is picked up a little bit but kind of pales in comparison to the other characters tribulations.
Oh and bringing Beverly back, gotta say didn't see that happening, now that is something i'm definitely looking forward to learning more about...daughter?? what?!!?
All in all i'd give this episode a serious 10/10. Leave it to eureka to keep me on the edge of my seat!moreless
This week's awesome episode of EUREKA, "Stoned," we get Zoe back in town (and in love?), Carter and Allison romance, Dr. Grant's mysterious visitor, and people in Eureka start turning to stone.
On this week's episode of EUREKA, "Stoned," Zoe's back in town (and in love?), Carter steps up his game with Allison, Dr. Grant has a mysterious caller, and people in Eureka start turning to stone.
The crisis for this week is that the crew that's pouring the foundation for Jo's new house, and the archaeologist trying to stop them, suddenly turn into concrete statues. As Carter and Allison try to nail down the cause, Zoe becomes affected as well, leaving her dad to wonder if Harvard gives refunds. Carter and Allison are able to identify the two chemicals that are turning everyone to living statues, and end up using Global Dynamics spa treatments to change everyone back.
The other big storyline of the week is that couples are starting to form, with some interesting pairings going on. Zoe confesses that she's into someone new, but it happens to be Jo's old flame from another timeline, Zane, and I'm pretty sure that's going to turn awkward soon. Henry's first date with Grace was kind of a false start, but he makes up for it late in the episode in a musical manner. Lastly and most importantly, Carter and Allison finally break through and rekindle the kissing that they started 60+ years before.
Speaking of things from the past, Dr. Grant receives a care package from someone who enjoys wines with vintages from 1947 and has requested his presence at a run down diner. When Grant appears, he is confronted by no other than Beverly Barlowe (the evil, involved in a conspiracy, psychiatrist from Seasons 1 and 2). She's not surprised to see him, which is the first sign that something bad is going to happen.
The acting tonight on Eureka was really sharp, especially Colin Ferguson–his scenes dealing with Zoe's petrification were solid, and he had great chemistry with Salli Richardson-Whitefield, as always. It was great to see Zoe again, though not sure about Zane as her new flirtation target (what would we have to call those 'shippers? Zoe-ners?)
Also enjoyed the new twists that the writers have thrown in with Dr. Grant–it's interesting to see what will happen in the coming weeks with that little thread. Bonus points to the writers this week for the Dr. Who reference (who knew the DOD would have the TARDIS plans?) and for the fun scene with Henry serenading Grace with "She blinded me with Science" with help from DJ Fargo.
There were a couple of news items regarding Eureka this week. First, SyFy renewed Eureka for it's fifth season (awesome news!). Second, SyFy announced that they will air a special Holiday episode of Eureka this December. Both are signs that the show is gaining in popularity and delivering strong ratings.
What do you think of Carter and Allison? Whats Jo's next move now that Zane is looking at Zoe? What do you think Beverly is doing back in town, and how does she know Dr. Grant?
Next week on Eureka, lots of faces from the past are reappearing in town, including some ex-es that we didn't expect to see again. Make sure you catch "The Ex-files" next Friday at 9 PM on SyFy.

Posted: 7:00 a.m. Sunday, May 4, 2014
Staff Writer
A great debate in education is swirling around whether or not students face too many standardized tests from local and state mandates.
Several organized efforts have cropped up in recent years aiming to reduce or repeal what critics claim to be an over-testing of students in grades kindergarten through 12.
There are now at least 186 bills related to assessments being considered in state legislatures in 2014, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. The bills stretch across a variety of testing subjects including Common Core, GEDs, English language learner testing and funding issues.
"The United States as a whole is obsessed with tests; we are over-reliant on tests," said Robin Hiller, executive director of the Network for Public Education, a national group formed a year ago to protect and preserve public education. "We're opposed to all high-stakes standardized testing."
The use of standardized tests to measure student achievement has only been on the rise in Ohio since the first proficiency tests in the 1990s, to No Child Left Behind in 2001, to the state's adoption of the Common Core State Standards in 2010.
A 2013 study by the American Federation of Teachers found that in two, medium-size urban school districts, the time students spend taking tests ranged from 20 to 50 hours per year in heavily tested grades. In addition, students can spend 60 to 110 hours per year in test prep.
"There have always been standardized tests but what's changed is the sheer volume and how much weight seems to be put on these standardized tests," said Beverly Smolyansky, a parent in the Lakota district and psychologist at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in Liberty Twp.
Districts across Ohio are currently in their last testing window for the traditional Ohio Achievement Assessments, as the tests will be replaced with a new round of online assessments next year. Those test scores translate to a district's letter grades on the state report card.
Ohio is one of 19 states in the consortium Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) that has developed new computer-based, K-12 assessments in mathematics and English language arts to be aligned to the Common Core standards adopted by 44 states.
Ohio education leaders also developed new learning standards for science and social studies that come with another set of online assessments developed by American Institutes of Research.
The new learning standards — detailing what students should know by the end of each grade level — demand deeper critical-thinking and problem-solving skills to prepare students for college and careers, said John Charlton, spokesman for the Ohio Department of Education.
Charlton said it's been Ohio's stagnant performance in national and global education rankings that has attributed to the need for more rigorous learning standards.
"Ohio has slipped in the past years; we're not ranked as highly as we used to because we kept our goals low and stagnant," Charlton said. "Our proficiency levels have been the same for 10 years. We have a reading crisis in Ohio."
State Representative Andy Thompson (R-Marietta) has authored a bill — currently sitting in the House education committee — that would void the state's adoption of the Common Core standards and use of PARCC or other assessments related to the Common Core. He affirms that states should develop their own learning standards.
Proponents of the bill to end the Common Core in Ohio voiced concerns about learning standards being too vague or not developmentally appropriate in some cases; students being tested too often; and too much student information being shared with companies.
Those who testified in favor of the Common Core cited the need for more critical thinking and close reading of complex texts; a greater emphasis on written responses; and the time and financial investment that's already been made by districts and teachers across the state.
Thompson said while there have been two hearings on the bill, it will likely not reach a third hearing because of resistance from chairman of the education committee, Gerald L. Stebelton (R-Lancaster).
During the last hearing in November — that was cut off after 2.5 hours — more than 600 citizens packed the Statehouse, Thompson said. Testimony was split with 27 opponents and 25 proponents providing testimony.
"The talking points sound really good, but ultimately, this should be about the state of Ohio and parents and students having some input in this thing," Thompson said.
One advocacy group, Ohioans Against Common Core, was founded in March 2013 by Heidi Huber, of Anderson Twp. The group has several thousand website subscribers and has spurred local groups of concerned parents and teachers, Huber said.
Huber said she first learned about the Common Core through her work at a Christian charter school. She said the more she learned about it, the more concerned she was that something so impactful had been kept off her radar.
"It was kept off the radar on purpose," Huber said. "It was a covert implementation."
Huber said it's troublesome that local control is ceasing to exist anymore across Ohio. She said while states and local districts can develop their own curriculum, it has to be based on national standards and national assessments.
"I want people to realize this is not just the latest fad in education; it's the capstone to the idea of federal education," Huber said. "This is No Child Left Behind on steroids … with incessant testing and data mining."
Local state representative Tim Derickson(R-Oxford), who sits on the House education committee, said the public hearings in legislative committees are important because it allows the legislators to hear from both sides on a certain issue. He said it's those public forums, as well as speaking to constituents, that help guide legislators' decisions.
"I'm not as concerned with the raising of standards as I am with the actual testing and how it drives curriculum and data collection on our students," Derickson said. "We're always changing the rules on education requirements, evaluations and how teachers teach. It seems like we do it too much and we ought to just let the teachers teach … and let them catch up on the laws imposed."
Under the new learning standards, spring assessments will be given in multiple sections over several days, rather than a single day for a single subject, said Keith Millard, assistant superintendent of instruction for Hamilton City Schools.
"The scope of testing in the district pales in comparison to what's going to occur next year should full implementation of testing occur," Millard said.
Millard said time spent on state-mandated tests each year ranges from five hours for a third grader, to 7.5 hours for a fifth grader, to 12.5 hours for a sophomore. On top of that, district-mandated tests amount to five to 10 hours per year.
In the 2014-15 school year, districts will move from a week of OAA testing to a three-month-long testing window that begins with performance-based assessments in the four core subjects during February and March, and finishes with end-of-year course exams in the four subjects during April and May.
"Conservatively, you can double the time that you're looking at," Millard said. "So it's going to dramatically alter how schools conduct business in regards to testing."

Many battery-operated appliances (some are alternately operated from a wall socket) such as volt-ohmmeters and radios, include manually-operated controls and a display on the front face of the housing. A battery compartment is generally accessible from the rear face of the housing. The circuit board which contains most of the circuitry of the appliance and which lies near the rear of the housing, often has a cutout to accommodate the battery compartment. The cutout in the circuit board wastes space on the modern high density circuit boards. Also, the need to turn over the appliance to replace the battery is often an awkward process. A battery-operated appliance which facilitated battery replacement and avoided the need for a circuit board cutout to accommodate a battery compartment, would be of considerable value.
In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a battery operable appliance is provided which facilitates battery replacement and avoids some disadvantages of traditional battery placement. The appliance is of the type that has controls on the front face of its housing. The housing front face has an aperture that leads to a battery compartment. A cover usually covers the aperture. The appliance has a circuit board that lies behind the rear wall of the battery compartment. This allows a large circuit board to be used, that does not have a cutout for the battery compartment.
Especially in the case of a volt-ohmmeter appliance, the cover that covers the aperture in the housing front face can be provided with parts through which plugs can pass to reach sockets in the housing. This encourages leaving the plugs out of the sockets when the cover is off, so elements behind the cover that might otherwise be at a high voltage and which might be touched during battery replacement, are not at a high voltage.
According to other characteristics of the invention:
the removable cover has markings or indications that indicate the positions of a control switch;
the switch is equipped with a control knob which moves in a recess or hole of the cover;
the battery compartment is delimited by a side wall and by a bottom, through which pass means for connecting the voltage source electrically to an electrical circuit arranged in the inner cavity of the housing;
the sealing of the compartment relative to the inner cavity of the housing is obtained by means of a sealing diaphragm arranged between the bottom of the compartment and a bearing face located inside the housing, which may be the front face of a printed circuit, the diaphragm having the electrical connection means passing through it;
the battery compartment also receives at least one protection fuse; and
the compartment front opening is closed off by means of a sealing diaphragm arranged between the control housing and the removable cover.
Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will emerge from a reading of the following detailed description, for the understanding of which reference will be made to the accompanying drawings:
FIG. 1 is a front elevation view of the functional operating and control face of a battery-operated appliance produced according to the teaching of the invention, the particular appliance being a volt-ohmeter;
FIG. 2 is a front view of the integral part forming the upper half-housing of the appliance of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the appliance of FIG. 1 along the line 3--3 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view along the line 4---4 of FIG. 3;
FIG. 5 is a sectional view along the line 5--5 of FIG. 3;
FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the appliance of FIG. 1 along the line 6--6 of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 7 is a simplified exploded perspective view making it possible to illustrate access to the battery housing of the measuring apparatus.
The following contains a somewhat brief description of the invention, which is followed by a more detailed description.
FIG. 1 shows the front face of a battery-operated (it could be energized through a wall outlet) volt-ohmmeter appliance. The appliance includes a housing 20 whose front face 21 includes a screen or display 26, a range switch 28, and a control keyboard 30. The switch and keyboard are manually-operated controls. Ports 124 pass plugs that connect to devices to be tested. A battery compartment 46 contains a battery that energizes the appliance.
As shown in FIG. 7, the housing front face 21 has an opening or orifice 44 in its front face that opens to the battery compartment 46 that contains the battery 47. A removable cover 110 closes the opening. A locking device 34 can be used as part of the cover. An end part 120 of the cover has the ports 124 through which the plugs 122 pass to be received in socket 32 in the housing that lie behind and aligned with the ports of the closed cover. The plugs 122 are removed before the cover 110 is removed to replace the battery, which protects a person from touching an element behind the cover that is at a high voltage when replacing the battery. The volt-ohmmeter can measure voltages over 100 volts, usually to about 1000 volts, so the arrangement enhances safety.
The range switch 28 has a knob 128 with a control indicator 129 that can point to any of several markings 126 in the cover to indicate one of several different ranges of the appliance. When the cover 110 is removed, the absence of the markings 126 discourages operation of the appliance until the protective cover 110 is in a closed position. The knob can rotate about an axis extending perpendicular to the housing front face. The cover has a hole 130 that extends about the control knob 128, and the markings 126 are spaced about the hole. An elastomeric diaphragm 90 lies between the front of the battery compartment and the cover 110 to resist entrance of water.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the appliance has a main circuit board 36 which has a width (shown in FIG. 4) and length (shown in FIG. 3) that are about as wide and long as the housing (at least about 90% as great as the inside width and length of the housing). The circuit board 36 lies behind the rear wall 134 of the battery compartment, closer to the rear housing wall 23 and rear face 23f than the front housing wall 25 (both of which are substantially rectangular). An elastomeric diaphragm 146 lies against the rear face of the compartment rear wall. Electrical contacts 140, 145 extend from circuit board 36 through holes in the diaphragm 146 and the rear compartment wall 134 into the compartment. As shown in FIG. 3, the range switch 28 has a shaft 29 extending rearwardly to the circuit board 36 to move a rotatable contact across switch contacts at the circuit board.
The following is a more detailed description of the appliance.
The electrical measuring appliance illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 7 is a conventional appliance, of which the housing of general right-angled parallelepipedic shape is produced in the form of two half-housings 20 and 22, between which an offset 24 marking the parting plane can be seen.
It is also possible to see the screen 26 of a numerical display, the range switch 28, a control keyboard 30 and a series 32 of four receptacles or sockets making it possible to connect measuring leads (not shown in FIGS. 1 to 6) which generally terminate in plugs on the same side as the appliance and in probes on the same side as the measuring point.
FIGS. 3 to 7 also show a locking device 34 which makes it possible to retain the electrical connection plugs plugged into the measuring appliance, according to the characteristics of French Patent Application FR-A-2,587,849, to the content of which reference can advantageously be made. For the sake of clarity, the locking device 34 is not shown in FIG. 1.
The appliance possesses a main electronic circuit which is mounted on a main rectangular printed-circuit board 36 and on a secondary board 39 which are arranged inside the inner cavity 38 of the housing. The main electronic component and switching circuit of the appliance are not shown in the figures.
As can be seen from the figures, the main printed-circuit board 36 has a substantially rectangular contour equal to that of the two half-housings, and it therefore possesses a maximum surface for producing the circuits of the appliance.
The upper half-housing 20, on its functional upper face grouping together the control and operating members 26, 28, 30 and 32, has an orifice 44 opening upwards, to allow access to a cavity or compartment 46, in which an electrical battery 47 and protectional fuses 48 and 50 are arranged.
The sealing of the battery compartment 46 relative to the outside is obtained by means of a continuous and flexible solid diaphragm 90. The diaphragm 90 extends in one plane and delimits a substantially rectangular outer contour which corresponds to the contour of the access orifice 44 to the battery compartment 46. The contour of orifice 44 is delimited by a continuous groove 92, in which is received a gasket of circular cross-section 94 produced in one piece with the diaphragm 90.
To make it easier for the user to remove the flexible sealing diaphragm 90, the latter is equipped with a grasping tab 106 which is produced in one piece with the diaphragm 90 and which, when in place, is received in a recessed receptacle 108 formed in the upper face of the upper half-housing 20.
Access to the battery housing is likewise protected by a cover 110 made of rigid material, which covers the diaphragm 90 and which is fastened to the upper half-housing 20 by means of the ends 112 and 114 of its two sides which are engaged on the body of the upper half-housing 20.
According to the invention, the removable cover 110 has an end part 120 which is extended beyond the orifice or cavity edge 44 of the compartment 46 in order, when it is in position on the upper half-housing 20, to extend above the sockets 32 making it possible to connect plugs of the type of the plug 122 indicated diagrammatically in FIG. 7.
This part 120 of the cover 110 has a series of four ports 124 which make it possible to connect the measuring lead 127 equipping the plug 122 in the socket 32 arranged opposite the port 124.
In the embodiment illustrated, of course, the four ports 124 are arranged symmetrically opposite four socket 32, to allow connection in different measuring positions.
The removable cover 110 also possesses indications 126 enabling the user to mark the position of the knob 128 of the control switch 28, in order to select the operating range of the measuring appliance. The knob 28 passes through the removable cover 110 via a circular recess 130 formed in the latter.
The battery compartment 46 is delimited by a side wall 132, the profile of which corresponds to that of the contour of the cavity edge 44, and by a bottom wall 134. These two walls 132 and 134 being produced in one piece with the integral part forming the upper half-housing 20.
The bottom wall 134 has orifices 136 and 138 allowing, in particular, the passage of the electrical connection members 140 and 142 of the fuses 48 and 50, and two orifices 144 allowing the passage of the connecting terminals 145 for the electrical connection of the battery 47.
To ensure sealing between the battery compartment and the inner cavity of the housing 38, there is a foam sealing diaphragm 146 which is arranged between the lower face of the bottom 134 and the upper face of the main printed-circuit board 36.
The foam sealing diaphragm 146 has slits which allow the fuse connection members 140, 142 and the battery connecting terminals 145 to pass through it sealingly.
The manner of access to the compartment containing the battery and fuses, for example to carry out the replacement of one of these elements, will now be described with particular reference to FIG. 7.
The user begins by disconnecting the plugs 122 which, if appropriate, are in place in the sockets 32 and which pass through the safety device 34, if the measuring appliance is equipped with such a device, and the ports 124 of the removable cover 110.
The user subsequently removes the safety member 34 engaged on the removable cover 110 and then this latter element which is engaged on the upper half-housing 20. If the user has not previously removed the plugs 122 and the safety device 34, it is impossible for him to remove the removable cover 110.
The user then has only to take out the flexible sealing diaphragm 90 in order to gain access to the compartment 46 and carry out the operations of checking and replacing the battery 47 and/or fuses 48 and 50.
The elements are put back in place in reverse order to that just described for the removal.
It will also be seen that, if the user happens to reinsert the plugs without having replaced the removable cover 110, it is difficult for him to use the measuring appliance, since there are no longer any indications 126 opposite the control knob 128 of the switch 28.
To make it possible to fit the fuses of different sizes equally in the same fuse-carrier members, such as the part 140, it will be seen that the latter possesses, starting from its insertion orifice 150, two successive cutouts 152 and 154, which make it possible to insert a fuse 48 of a diameter corresponding to that of the circular orifice 152 or to that of the circular orifice 154. This characteristic advantageously makes it possible to market the same appliance in countries having different standards as regards the diameters and sizes of the fuses to be used, for example 8�32 mm or 6.3�32 mm fuses.
In the embodiment illustrated, the battery 47 is a parallelepipedic 9-volt battery known by the standardized reference 6LF22.
The housing of the measuring appliance just described, with the arrangement of the battery compartment accessible from the functional control and operating face, is such that, during use and for normal maintenance, the user never has to open the main housing and need only have access to the compartment 46, in which the battery 47 and the fuses 48 and 50 are arranged.
In a way known per se, the lower half-housing 22 is equipped with a stand 200 which is articulated about an axis 202, to make it possible to use the appliance in a position inclined, for example, relative to a horizontal working plane.
According to a new characteristic, the free end 204 of the stand is bevelled so as to have a reduced thickness similar to that of the tip of a screwdriver. The stand, which is easily removable, can thus be detached from the housing of the appliance in order to form a dismantling tool.
In fact, the user can advantageously use the bevelled end 204 by inserting it into the parting plane 24 or the lateral ends 112 of the cover 110.
Since the stand 200 is produced from the same thermoplastic as the housings and the covers, it constitutes a tool non-aggressive towards these elements, thus avoiding accidental damage to them.
Although particular embodiments of the invention have been described and illustrated herein, it is recognized that modifications and variations may readily occur to those skilled in the art and consequently it is intended to cover such modifications and equivalents.

Blues fly-half Rhys Patchell named in Wales Under-20 squad
Cardiff Blues fly-half Rhys Patchell has been included in a 27-man Wales Under-20 squad for the Six Nations.
Patchell had been tipped to make the senior squad but interim Wales coach Rob Howley has indicated he wants to monitor the 19-year-old's development.
Wales U20 coach Danny Wilson believes Patchell will benefit from being in the squad.
"When Rhys comes back to this level he will be a senior player - a leader at this level," said Wilson.
"I think it is important for him to come back and lead."
Wales Under-20s Six Nations fixtures
- v Ireland - 1 February, Eirias, Colwyn Bay (19:10 GMT)
- v France - 10 February, Clermont Ferrand (14:00 GMT)
- v Italy - 22 February, Vitterbo (19:00 GMT)
- v Scotland - 8 March, Inverness (19:35 GMT)
- v England - 15 March, Eirias, Colwyn Bay
Patchell is one of seven Blues players in the squad, including captain Ellis Jenkins.
Three players - Carmarthen prop Gareth Thomas, Swansea fly-half Sam Davies and Llanelli full-back Jordan Williams - are currently unavailable due to injury, but will return to the squad when fit.
On the make-up of the squad Wilson said: "It's exciting to see a good spread of players with experience from last season and those who are new to this level of rugby.
"As a coaching group, we have undertaken a more thorough process this season and between us have seen a lot of regional and Premiership rugby, both live and on video and have had a good look at all the players in contention.
"We have a strong pool of players to select from. Ieuan Jones and Rhys Patchell are amongst those who have shone at regional level of late, along with Harry Robinson, of course, who is already capped by Wales."
Wales Under 20 home games return to Colwyn Bay's Eirias this season after three sell-out games there last year.
They open their campaign at home to Ireland on Friday, 1 February.
Wales finished fourth in the 2011-12 tournament with two wins from five games as England U20 won the title.

It would have been easy for Avengers: Age of Ultron – the sequel to Marvel's franchise mega-hit Avengers Assemble – to rest on its laurels. Thankfully, Avengers 2.0 improves on its predecessor on many fronts even if it doesn't fully recapture the magic of the 2012 endeavour.
Whereas it took a little while for Avengers Assemble to get going, the opposite is true for the sequel. We begin with a Bond-esque opening skirmish between our heroes and HYDRA cronies that ends with the recovery of Loki's scepter and a party to remember. But when Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) attempt to use the power of the scepter to jumpstart a peacekeeping program, the inadvertent result is Ultron (James Spader), a highly intelligent robot hell-bent on human extinction. Making matters worse, Ultron joins forces with powerful Maximoff twins Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen).
