Note to the frustrated, the lonely and the hungry: 911 operators don't care if your fast-food order was incomplete.
They don't want to have to give you a traffic report. And, no, they don't play matchmaker.
Yet every few months, audio is released detailing trivial -- if not ridiculous -- calls to emergency officials. The calls prompt giggles and provide popular fodder for blogs, YouTube and e-mail chains but are a very real nuisance to the authorities who are obligated to respond.
"We deal with prank calls and people checking in for the time of day," St. Lucie [Fla.] County Public Safety 911 operations coordinator Tiffany Bennett told ABCNews.com. "When you pick up that phone, you never know what's on the other end."
Her center has also gotten calls asking about holiday parade routes and how to fix a washing machine.
"Of course, you are going to giggle at some of the sillier stuff," she said.
Bennett's dispatchers took three 911 calls last week from a Fort Pierce woman who complained that McDonald's refused to give her a refund when they ran out of McNuggets.
Letreasa Goodman, 27, paid for her order but became irate when she was offered different food after being told the restaurant was out of McNuggets, according to a police report obtained by ABCNews.com.
"This is an emergency. If I would have known they didn't have McNuggets, I wouldn't have given my money," Goodman told Fort Pierce Police Officer Joshua Buday, who responded to the call, according to the report.
The report says the cashier offered to give Goodman another order -- more food for the same price -- but she refused and began yelling at the cashier before storming outside to call 911.
"Now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don't want one," Goodman told the officer, according to the report.
Goodman was charged with misuse of a wireless 911 system.
She later told WPEC-TV that she called 911 because she didn't want the situation to get out of control.
"I wanted to jump across that counter but I understand it's not her fault, she's just doing her job," Goodman said. "She wouldn't give me my money back. That's why I was a young lady and called the police."
A spokesman for the St. Lucie Sheriff's Office, which released Goodman on a notice to appear in court, said she has been booked into the county jail nine times on various charges, ranging from making a false police report to petty theft.
They say love comes knocking when you least expect it. Lorna Dudash thought that day had come for her back in June 2006 when a good-looking sheriff's deputy showed up at her door in Washington County, Ore., responding to a neighbor's noise complaint.
Dudash, then 45, called 911 after he left, asking for his name and wanting know if he could please come back, saying he was "the cutest cop I've seen in God knows how long."
"I know it's not an emergency but heck, it doesn't happen very often, a good-looking man comes at your door step," she told the 911 dispatcher.
The deputy did come back -- to arrest her.
She was charged with making a false 911 call. Dudash pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 2 years probation and 100 hours of community service, according to ABC affiliate KATU.

He's more famous though for being the lead singer of The Boomtown Rats, and co-founding Band Aid, Live Aid and Live 8. Through those, he's helped raise hundreds of millions of pounds for charity.
I understand that, but The Wall is a fairly well known movie. For those who can't connect his face with the benefit work he has done, connecting with the character we see frequently in that movie may help jog their memory.
For those big events, it is more common to remember the bands than the people who moved mountains behind the scenes to make the event happen.

It's a shame... But I sorta always knew she'd go like her mother did. I wouldn't want to say with certainty that it's drugs related but healthy 25 year olds don't usually tend to fall over dead. Having said that, look at Britney Murphy.
Or an unknown / undetected aneurysm, but agree that drugs could be a factor.

For all you people who don't know who her family is :
Her Dad was Bob Geldof, famous for organizing and promoting Live Aid for Africa. a dual-venue concert held on 13 July 1985. He also wrote and sang with a group of peformers including Michael Jackson, "We are the Children" with all proceeds going to Ethiopia famine.
Point of correction - He wrote (with Midge Ure) and sang on 'Do they know it's Christmas' which was the song that kickstarted the whole Live Aid movement. Lionel Ritchie and Michael Jackson wrote 'We are the World' as the US response when they saw that these things really boosted your career...

Remind me of the rules on this again and the date of the draft? I know last year we did it during the Christmas break and I believe it went five rounds?
My understanding also was that it went from worst to first.
Also, you could only throw guys back who:
1) were injured and out for the year.
2) had lost there starting spot
3) became academically ineligible
4) redshirted
5) had not currently wrestled a match.
I didn't think you could throw back perfectly good starting wrestlers.

LUVERNE -- Rock County Commissioners on Tuesday approved a five-year tax abatement, as well as a $10,000 deferred loan from the Small Cities Development Program, to assist Southwest Minnesota Housing Partnership (SWMHP) in its proposed acquisition of Rock Manor in Luverne. Located at 441 Hatting St., Rock Manor consists of four townhomes and a total of 24, two- and three-bedroom units.
SLAYTON -- Minnesota's 1st District Congressman Tim Walz was in southwest Minnesota on Monday, continuing his mission to collect input for the development of the 2007 Federal Farm Bill. His afternoon visit to Slayton was geared primarily toward discussion of renewable energy funding. A freshman Congressman and member of the House agriculture committee, Walz has voiced support for local control in wind energy development and for money to aid in the research and development of cellulosic ethanol production. However, on the heels of the House's passage last week of a $2.9 trillion federal budg
By julie buntjer Daily Globe WORTHINGTON -- Worthington High School sophomore Brittany Berger will represent the community in Crailsheim, Germany, during the coming year in the Worthington-Crailsheim exchange program. Berger's selection as the new ambassador to Crailsheim was announced Sunday during Worthington-Crailsheim International's (WCII) annual banquet at Worthington Country Club. Beth Habicht, WCII committee member said this year's selection was extremely difficult. "We had three outstanding applicants this year," she said. "The plus side is we knew we couldn't make a mistake.
WORTHINGTON -- Life as Americans knew it changed on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001. Images of airplanes flying into the Twin Towers and of people falling to their deaths still linger in the memory of those who watched the news play out on national television. Those images haunted then-14-year-old Whitney Buesgens as well.
WORTHINGTON -- The link between science and agriculture is strong -- and growing stronger by the day. Dr. Gale Buchanan, under secretary for research, education and economics with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, said that as more attention is placed on reducing America's dependence on foreign oil and energy, more demand will be placed on the agricultural industry to help make it happen. Buchanan, presenting the keynote address at Friday's luncheon of the third annual Regional Bioscience Conference in Worthington, said there's a new paradigm developing in agriculture today.
WORTHINGTON -- There is a movement in science classes today to take the textbooks away from students in exchange for real lab experience. That movement has begun in Worthington and in school districts across the country as educators realize the need for more up-to-date information to teach their students about science, particularly about biotechnology. Gail O'Kane, education-industry partnership manager for biosciences and nanosciences in the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) System, moderated a session Friday morning during the Regional Bioscience Conference on the link betw
WORTHINGTON -- A request by Worthington businessman Larry Potter to construct a road course on land behind the Blue Line Travel Center drew mixed reactions during a hearing of the Nobles County Planning Commission Wednesday night. The issue was ultimately tabled at the request of the City of Worthington, after the city's manager of planning and economic development Brad Chapulis presented a letter to the commission. Before Potter can construct a road course, he wants to have his land rezoned from industrial to highway business.
WORTHINGTON -- Medical advancements and altered approaches in the arena of mental health are continuing to spark change in the field. Gone are the days when the mentally ill were carted off to the regional asylum -- a building that more closely resembled a prison than a treatment center. And gone are the days when patients were considered unproductive members of society, kept in dormitory-style housing to whittle the days away.
WORTHINGTON -- World-renowned agricultural economist Bill Tierney captivated a crowd of crop producers Tuesday afternoon in Worthington as he offered his projections on corn and soybean production numbers and prices for 2007 and beyond. Tierney, a retired USDA grains economist, now serves as executive vice president of John Stewart & Associates in Washington, D.C. His presentation focused primarily on U.S.
WORTHINGTON -- The Worthington City Council tabled a request Monday night for financial assistance from New Vision Cooperative to help in the demolition of its vacant grain elevator at 706 10th Ave. The matter will be discussed further in a 7 a.m.

Primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) of the pancreas is extremely rare. Although the diagnosis of PNET is suggested by the light microscopic appearance of the tumor, it should be confirmed by the immunohistochemical evaluation of the c-myc expression and if possible, further determination of the particular chromosome translocation, t(11;22)(q24,q12). In this report, we present a male patient with pancreatic PPNET who had been followed up for 50 months. The related literature is also reviewed. In our case, the pathologic diagnosis was based on the positive immunoreactivity for CD99 in many of the tumor cells. The complementary cytogenetic studies were not possible in the private setting of the patient's treatment. The patient was 31 years old when first operated. Within 4 months of the first operation he had local recurrence. In the third year of his follow-up he had been discovered to have pulmonary metastases and another metastatic tumor in his lung was diagnosed the year after. The metastatic foci were primarily treated by surgical resections. He had chemotherapy after each resection of pulmonary metastatic foci. After 50 months of the initial surgical intervention, he succumbed to widespread thoracic and bone metastases. Because of the extreme rarity of PPNET in the pancreas, and its rather protracted course, we think our case may further contribute to the ever expanding database for this particular entity.

continued "We have to show that we're capable of grabbing opportunity when it comes our way and monetizing it," he said.
The tourism industry is important to Johnsburg, said Vanselow, and he wants to do what he can to make sure the town's taking advantage of the opportunities afforded by the train, Gore and outdoor recreation around town.
A sustainable economy for Johnsburg could also include office jobs with telecommuting, which would be greatly helped by increasing the local internet speeds. The town's contract with Frontiernet will be up soon, and Vanselow has said that he'd like to renegotiate the agreement to include broadband development.
"Our job is not necessarily to create opportunities, but to assist them as they come along," he said.
Though he has great interest in participating in the county board of supervisors, especially the tourism committee, he's not going in there to rock the boat too much.
"I'm not going in as some wild-eyed renegade looking to change the board," he said.

Sarcastic, quick witted & love to laugh!
ME: Sarcastic, quick witted and loves to laugh. I?m always going somewhere or doing something new- I have tons of energy. I love my UGA football! I adore my amazing family, they are the center of my universe! I?ve got a little bit of a daredevil in me- I?ve jumped out of planes, flown helicopters and done things just because someone said I shouldn?t. I?m happy to get all dolled up for a night on the town but I?m just as happy (if not more) in jeans and t-shirt sitting on the couch watching TV, sharing a pizza.

If you don't hear back from me, it's not you- I just didn't get the message (AKA you seem great but just not for me). Call me old fashioned, but I like it when I guy picks up the phone and calls me, I?m not interested in getting to know you over email or text- Plus I am very ADD and you will loose my attention quickly. I?m a quick study, so a chat on the phone if it goes well maybe we can meet up for a quick drink. LOOKING FOR: Something more serious, I've got my career in a great place- life is good, want to share that with someone who can admit when I?m right and call me out when I?m wrong.

|Mary Lynn Reynolds
January 31, 1938
Los Angeles, California, U.S.
|Years active
|Peter Hall (1958–1960; divorced)
Edward Carlin (1963–1974; divorced); 2 children
John Wolfe (1983–present)
Lynn Carlin (born Mary Lynn Reynolds on January 31, 1938, in Los Angeles) is an American actress.[1] She was nominated for Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role in Faces. Her father, Larry Reynolds, was a Hollywood business manager in the 1930s. Carlin made her stage debut in Clare Boothe Luce's The Women at the Laguna Beach Playhouse.
Carlin, a secretary-turned-actress, earned her only Academy Award nomination in 1968 for her first feature role, as John Marley's suicidal wife, Maria, in John Cassavetes' Faces (1968). She subsequently played wives and mothers before retiring in 1987. She next appeared in ...tick...tick...tick... (1970), as George Kennedy's ambitious, henpecking wife, and returned to the offbeat as Buck Henry's wife, searching for her missing daughter amid the hippies and drug culture of 1970s New York in Miloš Forman's Taking Off (1971). The same year she appeared in Blake Edwards' western Wild Rovers. In 1972, she was re-teamed with John Marley, again as his wife, in Bob Clark's Vietnam-era horror film Deathdream, and her other film roles include the British drama film Baxter! (1973) as the mother of Scott Jacoby, the 1979 comedy French Postcards, and the 1982 horror film Superstition.
The small screen saw Carlin cast for her maternal presence as well. She is perhaps best remembered as the parent of growing teen Lance Kerwin in the TV-movie James at 15 (1977) and its subsequent spin-off, James at 16. In 1977, she was cast in several episodes of The Waltons as a nurse who marries the county sheriff. She had a recurring role on the short-lived television series, Strike Force (1981–82). She appeared in several other TV movies, providing a strong supporting turn in Silent Night, Lonely Night.[2]
In 1971, she played the mother of teenage father Desi Arnaz Jr. in Mr. and Mrs. Bo Jo Jones. That same year she played Peter Falk's wife in A Step Out of Line. In 1974, she appeared in both Terror on the 40th Floor and The Morning After. She played the wife of Sam Houston in the biopic, The Honorable Sam Houston, in 1975. The following year she played Eve Plumb's mother in Dawn: Portrait of a Teenage Runaway.[2]
In her last made for television movie, she played the mother of three young men manipulated into breaking their father (Robert Mitchum) out of jail in A Killer in the Family (1983). Her last acting role was a guest appearance on Murder, She Wrote in 1987, as the wife of the episode's murder victim, played by Cornel Wilde.[2]
Personal life[edit]
She was first married to Peter Hall from 1958 until their divorce in 1960. She married, secondly, to Edward Carlin, with whom she had two children. That union (1963–74) also ended in divorce. Her elder child is podcaster/journalist Dan Carlin. She has been married to John Wolfe since 1983.[3]

Re: David Brin's latest novel, and a TED talk
I'm dubious about all predictions based on extrapolations from current trends; we're not much better at forecasting anything important than Greek augurers were. Apolcalyptic predictions of society's collapse are in the same category as the Singularity - one can find the logic persuasive or not, but they're fiction.

Evidence In UN Syria Report Makes Regime Most Likely Suspect
By editor
UN inspectors have concluded that it was in fact a chemical weapons attack that occurred outside Damascus, Syria on August 23rd. The report does not assign blame for the attack. But according to Peter Bouckaert, Emergencies Director for Human Rights Watch, a careful read of the evidence laid out in the UN report shows the Syrian regime is most likely behind the attack. He talks with Robert Siegel about the UN findings and what they imply.

U.S. has 1st practice since worlds began
Updated: September 5, 2010, 2:10 PM ETAssociated Press
ISTANBUL -- After one lackluster victory during pool play, Mike Krzyzewski encountered some feistier competition in his news conference than the U.S. faced on the court.
"Why didn't the USA score more?" one reporter asked.
"Why isn't the team practicing?" questioned another.

Pre-paid Cell phones
Has anyone used these in Europe, particularly in France, who could make a recommendation whether this is a good way to keep in contact with family, etc., while in Europe?
Has anyone used these in Europe, particularly in France, who could make a recommendation whether this is a good way to keep in contact with family, etc., while in Europe?
My question too.....:)
I use a Virgin phone in England and a Vodafone in Italy and Greece. Love them both. I just buy the time I need and call home. Purchase a cheap, major label phone and you can use it for years to come by just purchasing a SIM card when you land in a new country. For major brands like Virgin and Vodafone you need their SIM card. I loan mine to friends when they travel and they have no problems.
And calling from Europe is so easy, you'd think you were calling ext door (if you stay aware of the time difference).
If you have an unlocked phone you can use any pre-pay SIM. Have a look at this company which specialises in international call SIMS. They also operate in France and if it is like the UK, you can buy them almost everywhere! http://www.lebara.com/
Mark and Kim, what type of cell service to use is a frequent question on these forums. You might have luck finding some posts a page or two back on the list of topics, or you could try to do one of the advanced google searches described in the post titled, "Get answers to your questions searching Rick's Archives." In a nutshell, here is what the usual responses are: Yes, using a prepaid phone (or SIM if you have an unlocked phone with the correct frequencies) is a great way to stay in touch with the U.S. as well to call local numbers. The rates aren't super cheap, but they are cheaper than you can get from your U.S. cell company (where rates are between $1 and $2 a minute). They have some disadvantages, primarily being that folks who want to call you will pay international rates when they call from the U.S. They will also have to be educated how to make an international call and you will have to get your number to them after you are in Europe, assuming you buy the phone/SIM there. Another option recommended by many is to get a phone/SIM from a travel phone company, Telestial, Mobal, Ekit, etc. There are lots. They will send you the phone/SIM before you leave so you'll know your number earlier. Disadvantage: they mostly charge higher rates than a local SIM (even a SIM that is roaming from one country to another). But the rates are less than what you'd pay to a U.S. carrier, depending upon the amount of calls you make. The travel phone companies charge an upfront fee in addition to the calling rates so you have to factor that amount in to get a true picture of the cost of making or receiving calls. With a prepaid SIM, you must fill your account ("topping it up") when it runs low. With most travel phones, they will automatically top it up by charging a credit card. Advantages and disadvantages to both options.
(Continued . . . ) A lot of the travel phone companies will also give you the option of a U.S. telephone number that others can call that will be forwarded to the European number (usually from the U.K.) that they give you. It costs you extra, but it saves your callers from the expense of an international call. Other options: Use a prepaid calling card, available at convenience stores overseas, and call from a pay phone. Cheapest rates, but pay phones are a bit harder to find than in the past. Also, no way for others to easily reach you. Or use a wifi connection and call with Skype (some say you can call with Magic Jack, too). Maybe this is the cheapest way to call. You have to set up a Skype account beforehand and learn how to make calls. You also must have a smartphone that can make Skype calls or use a laptop, tablet, or netbook that can do so. Disadvantage: still hard for others to reach you when you aren't connected. The only way to use data overseas over a phone connection is with a local prepaid SIM. Otherwise stick to wifi. Your cell company and the travel phone companies generally have rates that will eat you alive. This is getting better, though, and there may actually be a travel phone company or a U.S. cell plan that is halfway reasonable.
(Continued . . . ) I use and recommend using a local SIM. I use two from the U.K. and can top them up by buying credit on ebay. I must have data, though, so this approach works well for me. The easiest solution, though, and the one I think I would recommend to most people is to stick with you local U.S. carrier. You must have T-Mobile or AT&T and a phone that works, or arrange to rent/borrow a Verizon travel phone (Sprint users need to find some other solution). You have to be sure your carrier knows you may be roaming internationally. Then the trick is use your phone very, very judiciously. Forward all incoming calls to voicemail before your plane takes off. (Better yet, forward calls to a voice to text transcription service, such as google voice, so you can see who has called and read a rough translation of their message without having to call your U.S. voicemail service.) Tell those who need to contact you to send a text message. Don't call home just to chat - at least not on the phone. Use a wifi connection instead. Keep your texting to a minimum because at $0.35 a text, even that can add up. My family does a combination of these things. We keep our U.S. phones, but forward calls. We also have a separate phone or two with the U.K. SIMs. I also use Skype and some T-Mobile phones permit wifi calling over the T-Mobile network (it just uses minutes; no extra fees). I will admit, though, that it can get complicated. I enjoy mastering it; it is part of the challenge of travel to me. But for most folks, just do what is easiest, being cautious about costs.
Check out Vodaphone -- I travel often and found it best to purchase a basic phone and a sim card. Now there may be better deals around though, so check the site and others as well.

A system is proposed for bidirectional electromagnetic transmission of data signals between at least two stationary units and one vehicle unit. The stationary units in the downlink mode synchronously transmit the data signals to the vehicle unit and have different carrier frequencies. In the uplink mode, the data signals are transmitted from the vehicle unit to the stationary units by the semipassive transponder principle. In the process, the data signals of the vehicle unit are frequency-modulated to the various carrier frequencies of the stationary units. This arrangement improves the reliability of bidirectional data transmission. A preferred application is data exchange for traffic control systems between stationary beacon units and moving vehicles.
1. A system for bidirectional, electromagnetic transmission of data signals between a plurality of stationary units which have respective effective ranges that at least partially overlap, and a corresponding vehicle unit, wherein the stationary units transmit encoded data signals (ASK) to the vehicle unit (downlink mode), and the vehicle unit transmits encoded data signals (FSK) to the station units by a semi-passive transponder mode, characterized in that at least two stationary units are provided, which operate at predetermined frequency spacings and that in the downlink mode synchronously transmit the same data, and that the reception unit of the vehicle unit is adapted to receive the transmission frequencies of the stationary transmitting units.
2. The system of claim 1, characterized in that the receiving unit of the vehicle unit has at least one antenna, which is formed by stripline technology.
3. The system of claim 1, characterized in that the vehicle unit has a detector diode as its demodulator.
4. The system of claim 1, characterized in that the vehicle unit has a filter with a low-pass characteristic.
5. The system of claim 1, characterized in that the vehicle unit is formed so that in the uplink mode, it modulates each received carrier frequency synchronously with the data signals to be transmitted and transmits it to the stationary units.
6. The system of claim 5, characterized in that the stationary units are connected to a data receiver, which compares the respective received and demodulated data signals of a stationary unit with those of a further stationary unit and rejects data errors that occur.
7. The system of claim 5, characterized in that the data receiver is formed to ascertain data errors by means of a transmission protocol.
8. The system of claim 1, characterized in that the stationary devices encode the data signals in the downlink mode by amplitude modulation, and that the vehicle unit in the uplink mode encodes the carrier frequencies of the stationary units by frequency modulation.
9. The system of claim 1, characterized that it is adapted for use as part of a system for transmitting traffic and navigation data and for debiting road use fees.
10. The system of claim 1, characterized in that the vehicle unit has a filter with a band-pass characteristic.

The invention relates generally to a system for bidirectional, electromagnetic transmission of data signals between a plurality of stationary units and a corresponding vehicle unit.
In the publication, Proceedings of the Drive Conference: "Advanced Telematics in Road Transport" Feb 4-6, 1991, Vol 1, it is proposed in the context of the PAMELA project that a data exchange be carried out in the microwave range with an active and semi-passive transponder. Data are transmitted from a beacon unit to the transmission and reception part of the vehicle unit in what is known as the downlink mode, by means of amplitude-modulated signals. The data transmission from the vehicle to the beacon is done in the uplink mode by the transponder principle. The beacon sends an unmodulated carrier signal, which is received by the vehicle unit. This received signal is frequency-modulated with the data to be transmitted and is received again by the beacon unit. Since the beacon units have only a short range within which reliable data transmission is possible, it is necessary especially on multiple-lane roads or at intersections to set up a plurality of beacons with corresponding transmitters. Yet there is then at least partial overlap in the areas illuminated by these beacons.
If the beacons, that is, the stationary units, were then to transmit at the same frequency, an interference field with highly location-dependent field intensities would be generated. Ground and vehicle reflections, however, also lead to major location-dependent changes in the reception power, however, so that overall the data transmission between the vehicle and the stationary unit and vice versa does not appear reliable enough.
The system of the invention has the advantage over the prior art that the field intensity is amplified because of the heterodyning of the synchronously transmitted data signals, so that a larger useful signal can be evaluated. Another advantage is that because of the different transmission frequencies of the stationary units, there is not such pronounced reduction or canceling out of the waves propagated from the reception site.
It is especially advantageous that the reception unit, formed as an antenna, is made by stripline technology. In this technology, an adequate bandwidth is possible with simple means.
The use of a detector diode for demodulating the antenna signal is especially simple and inexpensive. The signal obtained in this way is advantageously followed by a filter that has either low-pass or bandpass characteristics. The filter is selected such that the upper limit frequency is adapted to the maximum data rate to be transmitted and is less than the least difference between the carrier frequencies of the stationary units. Since each of the signals furnished by the individual stationary units contributes to increasing the signal-to-noise ratio, this improves the transmission reliability of the data signals.
In the uplink mode, the carrier signals transmitted by the stationary units are advantageously each modulated synchronously with the data signals to be transmitted and are then transmitted back to the stationary units. Each stationary unit receives only the signal modulated to its own carrier frequency. This is favorable for reliable data transmission, because it is unlikely that all the uplink connections will be interfered with simultaneously. Since the data signals received by the stationary units appear synchronously, they can also be compared with one another for content, so that errors in the transmission can readily be detected. Since the data signals are advantageously also transmitted by a predetermined protocol, comparison easily shows which of the data signals received were defective, so that they can be easily rejected. This increases the transmission reliability, so that the system can favorably be used to transmit traffic and navigation data or for dehiring roads use tolls.
Further advantages of the invention can be found in the following description.
An exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown in drawing and described in detail below.
FIG. 1 shows the transmission mode of a beacon (downlink mode);
FIG. 2 shows the transmission mode of a vehicle (uplink mode);
FIG. 3 is a block circuit diagram of the stationary unit;
FIG. 4 shows an arrangement of two stationary units along a street;
FIG. 5 is a block circuit diagram of a vehicle unit; and
FIGS. 6-8 are diagrams for the standardized reception power.
FIG. 1 shows a vehicle 22, which has a vehicle unit 23 that is connected to an antenna 1 on the vehicle. From a stationary unit 21, for example a transceiver on a beacon, the vehicle receives amplitude-modulated signals ASK (for amplitude-shift-keying). The transmission mode from the beacon to the vehicle is called the downlink mode.
FIG. 2 shows the vehicle 22 in the uplink mode; that is, the vehicle unit 23 is now sending data signals to the beacon 21 by the semi-passive transponder principle. To that end, the beacon sends an unmodulated Carrier signal (CW signal). This signal is received by the antenna 1 of the vehicle unit 23 and modulated with a frequency-modulated signal (frequency-shift-keyed or FSK signal) that is dependent on the data signal to be transmitted. This is done for instance by changeover or modulation of the reflectance at the output of the antenna 1. The changeover of the reflectance can be effected in the simplest case by the diode used for receiving the demodulation. The signal modulated in this way is broadcast from the vehicle antenna 1 and received by the stationary unit 21. The semi-passive transponder process used is known per se from the aforementioned publication in the Proceedings of the Drive Conference.
In FIG. 4, two stationary units 21 are located at the edge of the road and transmit and receive by the method described above. By locating the two units 21 next to the roadway, the distances from the vehicle 22 differ, depending on the road width and on the lane in which the vehicle is driving. For instance, for a two-lane road, the distance from a vehicle can be 2 m or 6 m.
FIG. 3 is a block circuit diagram for a stationary unit, which is operated at a specific oscillator frequency, such as 5.8 GHz (GigaHertz). For this frequency range, two or more channels are available, each with a bandwidth of 5 MHz (MegaHertz). For the simplest case, two units 21 are used, as shown in FIG. 4. According to the invention, provision is made for using a greater number of units 21, which then operate at a predetermined fixed frequency spacing.
FIG. 3 is a block circuit diagram of a stationary unit 21. The stationary unit 21 operates by the time division multiplex process; that is, for one predetermined time period it transmits amplitude-modulated signals in the downlink mode, and then switches over to the uplink mode for the next time period. The mode of operation will now be described in conjunction with the block circuit diagram of FIG. 3, first for the downlink mode. A data transmitter 37, which contains the data to be transmitted to the vehicle, is connected to an ASK (amplitude-shift-keyed) modulator 35 for generating the amplitude-modulated transmission frequencies. The output of the modulator 35 is connected to a downline antenna, which by way of example operates at the carrier frequency of 5 GHz.
The oscillator 34, via a power divider 33, for instance a 3 dB divider, furnishes the carrier frequencies to modulator 35. In the uplink mode, a further antenna is connected to mixer 32. The mixer 32 is also connected to the power divider 33 and the oscillator 34. The mixer 32 is connected to an FSK demodulator 30, which delivers the uplink data to a data receiver 36. The data receiver 36 can decode the demodulated data and store it in memory or display it. The various component blocks of the block circuit diagram are known and therefore need not be described in detail. As already noted, the individual stationary units operate at different carrier frequencies, which are preferably adapted to standardized or authorized frequencies. The units 21, which cover the same area, preferably operate with a frequency spacing of 5 MHz, when there are three or four units for one area, so that the bandwidth to which the antenna of the vehicle unit 23 is tuned is then 20 MHz.
FIG. 5 shows a block circuit diagram of the vehicle unit 23. One antenna 1 is connected to a demodulator/modulator 55. In the uplink mode, a data memory 56, which contains the most various vehicle data transmits the frequency-modulated data signals to the modulator 55 via an FSK generator 57. In the uplink mode, the stationary unit 21 first transmits an unmodulated carrier signal (CW carrier), which is received by the antenna 1. This carrier signal is modulated with the signal of the FSK generator 57 and is transmitted back again as a frequency-modulated signal (FSK) to the stationary unit 21 via the antenna 1. Since at least two stationary units 21 transmit an unmodulated signal simultaneously and synchronously, but at different carrier frequencies, both carrier frequencies are modulated in the modulator 55 with the FSK signal and are transmitted back to both Stationary units 21.
In the downlink mode, both stationary units 21 transmit the same data synchronously, but again at different carrier frequencies, to the vehicle unit 23. The antenna 1 then receives both modulated carrier frequencies, which are heterodyned at the reception site. In that case, the assumption is that at the data rates used, and with the limited range involved, no errors from transit time differences will occur. The heterodyned wave fields produce a beat, which from the difference between the two stationary units at the frequencies given is at 5 MHz. If there are more than one stationary unit 21, then there are also multiple frequencies of 5 MHz in the beat.
The beat can be filtered out in the filter 54 following the demodulator 55, so that in comparison with a single transmitting stationary unit 21, a higher useful level is available. Moreover, the filter 54 improves the signal-to-noise performance of the receiver. The filter 54 has low-pass or bandpass performance. The upper limit frequency of this filtration depends on the maximum data rate to be transmitted. It is currently assumed that the maximum data rate is between 1 megabit per second and 2 megabits per second. With the frequency modulation ASK used, an upper limit frequency of the filtering of markedly less than 5 MHz is then possible. For the above-described beat, this filter exhibits integrating behavior and thus smooths the course of the signal over time. Since each of the signals delivered to the various stationary units 21 contributes to increasing the signal-to-noise ratio, the reliability of data transmission is thus improved.
The mode of operation of the system will now be described. First, FIG. 6 shows a first diagram, in which the standardized reception power at the vehicle unit 23 is plotted with respect to the distance from a stationary unit 21. Strong reflections from the roadway cause the received curve 61 to be very wavy. This means that if the distance from the stationary unit 21 is changed slightly, the standardized reception power fluctuates very markedly. The curve shown is typical for a single unit 21 that is located on the edge of the road.
The diagram of FIG. 7 is for an arrangement of two stationary units to the right and left of a road. Both units 21 operate at the same carrier frequency, however. The curve 62 shows very pronounced field intensity changes, some of them caused by strong ground reflections but others of them also caused by interference resulting from the same carrier frequency.
FIG. 8 shows the course of the reception power with two stationary units 21 in accordance with the invention, these units operating at different carrier frequencies. The amplitude changes of the curve 63 are considerably less than in the curve 62 of FIG. 7. The advantage of this arrangement is that if the distance from the stationary units 21 changes slightly, the field intensity changes are relatively slight, so that secured data transmission can also be expected.
In order to assure that the stationary units 21, which after all are spatially separated from one another, will transmit synchronously and will transmit the same data, they are connected to the same data receiver 36 or data transmitter 37. The data transmitter 37 may for instance be a central traffic control computer, which outputs appropriate traffic data to the stationary units 21. The traffic control computer may, however, also be used for detecting charges for road use fees, bridge tolls, and so forth. The data receiver 36 substantially includes a memory, which stores the data signals transmitted by the vehicle in memory, so that they can be further processed in the traffic control computer. For instance, in the case of traffic control, this data may relate to the vehicle type, speed, and so forth. In the case of toll or fee calculation, it is possible to determine whether the fee or toll payment is valid.
In principle, the system of the invention for bidirectional data transmission is independent of the type of modulation, so that a different type of modulation, such as phase modulation, may also be used.
Various changes and modifications may be made, and features described in connection with any one of the embodiments may be used with any of the others, within the scope of the inventive concept.

To the extent that they're simply watching, I don't blame them. I would watch, as well. I also look at car wrecks on the freeway. In fact, on two or three occasions, I've sat atop Mount Bental in the Golan Heights, looking down on the United Nations checkpoint and the abandoned Arab village of al-Qunaytra and watching as plumes of smoke were rising to the sky from various points in the hell that is now Syria. There's a horrified fascination to it.
If, on the other hand, these Israelis were really enjoying the sight of Gaza being destroyed and Palestinians being killed, that needs to be condemned. It represents a depraved indifference to human life.
On 21 July 1861, at the First Battle of Bull Run during the American Civil War — known among Confederates as the First Battle of Manassas — men (including senators and congressmen), women, and children brought picnic baskets and opera glasses in order to enjoy the spectacle. I simply cannot understand such an attitude. But they were soon shocked by the carnage and by the defeat and disorganized retreat of the Union forces. What had been expected to be an easy Northern victory demonstrated very clearly that the war would not be over soon.
There can be no excuse whatever, though, for this. Nor for this:
There is a Jewish midrash (Talmud Tractate Megillah 10b) regarding the proper attitude and reaction when enemies have fallen:
"As the Egyptians started to drown in the Red Sea, the heavenly hosts began to sing praises, but God silenced the angels, saying, 'The works of my hands are drowning in the sea, and you wish to sing praises?"
I've never understood the tailgate parties and keggers that are sometimes held outside prisons when a murderer is executed. And I say that as someone who, if not precisely a fan of capital punishment, isn't a particular opponent of it, either. Even at their most justified, such events are (or should be) solemn and sober, and occasions for grief.
One of my favorite passages in all of scripture is Moses 7:24-37, in the Pearl of Great Price:
And there came generation upon generation; and Enoch was high and lifted up, even in the bosom of the Father, and of the Son of Man; and behold, the power of Satan was upon all the face of the earth.
And he saw angels descending out of heaven; and he heard a loud voice saying: Wo, wo be unto the inhabitants of the earth.
And he beheld Satan; and he had a great chain in his hand, and it veiled the whole face of the earth with darkness; and he looked up and laughed, and his angels rejoiced.
And Enoch beheld angels descending out of heaven, bearing testimony of the Father and Son; and the Holy Ghost fell on many, and they were caught up by the powers of heaven into Zion.
And it came to pass that the God of heaven looked upon theresidue of the people, and he wept; and Enoch bore record of it, saying: How is it that the heavens weep, and shed forth their tears as the rain upon the mountains?
And Enoch said unto the Lord: How is it that thou canst weep, seeing thou art holy, and from all eternity to all eternity?
And were it possible that man could number the particles of the earth, yea, millions of earths like this, it would not be a beginning to the number of thy creations; and thy curtains are stretched out still; and yet thou art there, and thy bosom is there; and also thou art just; thou art merciful and kind forever;
And thou hast taken Zion to thine own bosom, from all thy creations, from all eternity to all eternity; and naught but peace,justice, and truth is the habitation of thy throne; and mercy shall go before thy face and have no end; how is it thou canst weep?
The Lord said unto Enoch: Behold these thy brethren; they are the workmanship of mine own hands, and I gave unto them their knowledge, in the day I created them; and in the Garden of Eden, gave I unto man his agency;
And unto thy brethren have I said, and also given commandment, that they should love one another, and that they should choose me, their Father; but behold, they are without affection, and they hate their own blood;
And the fire of mine indignation is kindled against them; and in my hot displeasure will I send in the floods upon them, for my fierce anger is kindled against them.
Behold, I am God; Man of Holiness is my name; Man of Counsel is my name; and Endless and Eternal is my name, also.
Wherefore, I can stretch forth mine hands and hold all the creations which I have made; and mine eye can pierce them also, and among all the workmanship of mine hands there has not been so great wickedness as among thy brethren.
But behold, their sins shall be upon the heads of their fathers; Satan shall be their father, and misery shall be their doom; and the whole heavens shall weep over them, even all the workmanship of mine hands; wherefore should not the heavens weep, seeing these shall suffer?

The Patent Office has both design patent and utility patent for single product and also it has design patent application, patent your inventions, utility patent applications, patent application process, new patent applications, patent search, patent pricing to prevent your invention from others.
How you can protect your unique and valuable invention by design patents Overview Design Patents can be a valuable tool for certain types of inventions. If how your invention looks is what is unique about it and makes it valuable (and not necessarily how it works), then a Design Patent may be the best way to go. Once filed, you will be able to mark your invention as "Patent Pending." So a Design Patent is able to protect the unique look of your product even if that is the only thing "new" about it. But it is important to keep in mind that a Design Patent only protects the way your invention looks. You should understand that because of this, the protection is limited when compared to a Utility Patent as a Design Patent will not necessarily protect how your invention works or is made. And because Design Patents protect only the appearance of an article of manufacture, it is possible that minimal differences between similar designs can render each patentable. Therefore, even though you may ultimately receive a Design Patent for your product, the protection afforded by such a patent may be somewhat limited. Pricing Price Range for Complete Preparation and Filing: $750 – $1500. This price includes the government filing fee and the required drawings. Patent Search The place to start with any type of patent application endeavor is a Patent Search. A Patent Search is important for at least two reasons: 1. A Patent Search results in a stronger patent. A search allows the practitioner to gain the information required to draft the application according to the Patent Drafting Strategy we utilize to ensure the broadest protection possible for your invention. 2. A Patent Search will save you time and money.This is important because before you spend any money toward the application process, you should determine if protection is in fact available. Plus, it allows us to draft an application that we believe is allowable in light of the search results, which cuts down on the time and money required to prosecute your application toward a patent. About us: The Patent Office utilizes more than a dozen patent attorneys whose goal is to provide quality legal services at competitive prices. Each attorney believes in and practices the Philosophy of The Patent Office, which includes empowering inventors by providing them a viable option when compared to traditional legal services and fraudulent invention promotion companies.

Report: Former Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw visiting the Colts
You might have figured that a player like running back Ahmad Bradshaw would have a job at this point. After all, he's only 27, and he's coming off a 1,000-yard season for the Giants.
Yes, there are injury concerns -- he has had multiple surgeries on his right foot -- but still, you'd think somebody would have signed him by now, especially since there reportedly was interest in his services earlier this offseason.
Well, it looks like the Colts might give him a chance, according to Pro Football Talk, which reports that he's visiting Indianapolis on Thursday.
True, the Colts already have second-year running back Vick Ballard, who was surprisingly good last season, but we could see Bradshaw taking over for the somewhat-ineffective Donald Brown as a second back and a solid pass protector. Of course, so much of Bradshaw's future depends on how well his foot is feeling.
And as CBSSports.com's Mike Freeman has written, teams are still nervous about his injury history.
"You could get a Pro Bowler for the next two or three years," a Steelers team source told Freeman in March, "or a guy who is going to be hurt a lot. It's a risk. You just don't know."
Freeman predicted Bradshaw eventually would sign a deal, but he wouldn't make as much money as he wants. We'll see if he and the Colts can come to an agreement on that end.

Hi there! Today it's Tie It Together Thursday and I'm styling a dress for Susan. She has a blog called Charming Lucy and shares a lot of fashion & beauty posts, she's super sweet. The dress she asked me to style is by a company called hazel and she received it in her Stitch Fix box.
I love this dress and I decided to style it two different ways since we're at the end of summer and heading into fall.
First, let me say that I think shoes can make or break an outfit. You can have an adorable dress like this one and wear the wrong shoe and it's going to hurt the overall look.
I know everyone can't wear every style of shoe. But, if you have to have a really comfortable shoe because of feet issues try to look for styles that don't age you.
There's a website I found called BarkingDogShoes–fashionable finds for fussy feet. I would check her website out if you have fussy feet.
Now on to our hazel flower print dress. This dress is very busy so I wouldn't add a necklace but I would pop a lot of gold and I'd start with the sandals.
I have a similar pair of these and I love them. They would look fabulous with this dress! I found them on Zappos.com.
Here's how I styled the dress for a end of the summer look. I would add large earrings and stack some bracelets. Actually, the more bracelets the merrier and of course if you have a watch, add that too.
The earring and colorful bracelet are from Francescas.com and the gold chain bracelet can be found at Brinkle.com.
The next way I styled the dress is for fall. I think this style would be perfect with a bootie and I love these from Banana Republic. You can wear them alone or add some black pantyhose.
