5.0 out of 5 stars Yakau no michi!
A brilliant shabu (crystal meth) induced film about the Yakuza. The actual name of the film is Tokyo Nagaremono, and a true treat for the Yakuza obsessed (such as myself). I very much enjoy the plot, I don't like films that beat the story into your head. American cinema is designed for the mass amounts of idiots that make up this country, and if you find the plot hard to...

1.0 out of 5 stars Incomprehensible
While visually interesting, Tokyo Drifter lacks a cohesive story or any character development. It seems as if the editor removed the most important scenes. At one point in the movie the main character Tetsu has two hitmen in the back of the car he's driving and inexplicably escapes unscathed. The final outcome of the car scene is missing. This is just one of the many...

5.0 out of 5 stars Tokyo Drifter blew me away!,
By A Customer
I'm film student whose made a habit of seeing EVERYTHING. And when i saw Tokyo Drifter, i didn't know what to expect but the visuals and crazy mise-en-scene blew me away. It's like a mixture of Jean-Luc Godard, Sam Fuller, Melville and James Bond. A film which is self conscious of its humor and its absurd plot. A true 60s art film, Godard without the manisfesto...in Japan! And what more could you want, he sings!
5.0 out of 5 stars God damn, it is different!,
When I saw the old auto going into the flames accompanied by theme song, I was caught. Not that the storyline is great like in Kurosawa movies - it is just standard gangster movie, but the power of video is amazing.
Many people will not like the movie. But it is really worth to try.
5.0 out of 5 stars that BLUE suit!,
By A Customer
Stylin' color, smooth story, catchy tune... and that blue suit with those white shoes! A thorough pleasure from start to finish. Also, fascinating interview with the director - gives a real insider view on the Japanese film studio business in the 50's.
4.0 out of 5 stars Mod-gangsters and slick heroes abound.,
Shag (firstname.lastname@example.com) (Seoul, Korea) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tokto Drifter (VHS Tape)
Just a quick few notes about this ultra hip Japanese gangster flick. Mod stylings, colors that jump at you, and the coolest gunman in the world. What more could you ask for in a 60's flick? This is the way they all should have been done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crazy,
By A Customer
Tokyo Drifter is stylish like Out of Sight, has a storyline less plausable than that of a John Woo movie. The friendships and dialogue are corny, there are color skews between BW and bursting color, and a theme song sung through out the movie by the protagonist. So, what do you get when the movie's over? The movie is a stylish, fun, and I have a feeling, symbolical with it's plot line and characters. It tries things that you wish you would see in a decent spy movie, but of course none ever come out anymore. But, Tokyo Drifter, though it isn't dubbed over in English, is a fantastic movie, and a second watch let's you go mostly without the subtitles.

1919-D Nickel, MS661919-D 5C MS66 PCGS Secure. CAC. The 1919-D Buffalo is a significant strike rarity. While the current Premium Gem exhibits the usual softness on the hair above the bison's forehead, the remaining design features are much better defined than typically seen. The date, LIBERTY, and the braid are bold, and the tip of the horn, often indistinct even on Mint State coins, is sharp. Lustrous surfaces display extremely soft ice-blue, lilac, and champagne patina, and are nicely preserved. Recently the 1919-D in MS66 has realized prices in the $8,000 to $10,000 range. However, 5-6 years ago it was consistently bringing $14,000 to $18,000. This may spell opportunity for the astute buyer.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.
Will previously-planned downstream investments be cut back in 2015 due to lower global oil prices?

My 3 year old loves it!12/5/2008
This is a great product, we like all the leap pad books. I bought it for my 3 year old, but my older kids, 8 & 10, love to play with it also. It was a great purchase.
Good choice for a mature 3-year-old12/5/2008
My son enjoys the leap pad, but we have not taken it on a trip yet. I think it will be a good tool for occupying his time while on the airplane. I like the fact that it does more than just teach reading.
My Niece is enjoying it!12/5/2008
This was a great start in the learning area for my niece she is now 4 years old.

Fun story - Tigger's always good!12/5/2008
My daughter likes reading these stories on her Leap Pad. She especially likes the "extras" like the voices and actions that happen when you touch something on the picture. And Tigger is always fun!
4 year old likes it12/5/2008
Good for a preschooler who likes to learn.
My 3-yr old daughter enjoys it.12/5/2008
This is a good product because you hear all the characters' voices when you touch them with the interactive pen. However, i was disappointed in the narrator's voice as it was an old English man. It would have been more engaging for my daughter if it was a younger, more contemprary voice. This product is labeled for ages 4-6, but daughter is 3 yrs and 1 month, and this keeps her attention better than some of the Leappond or Phonics LeapPad books. I think it is because there are alot more options - games, voices, etc. And she loves Pooh, Tigger and all the characters!
Makes a difference12/5/2008
This is helping my young one learn more about reading. I am glad that i bought this product.
Great for the kids.12/5/2008
I have ages 2 1/2,5,6,7 so the leap books work fine. They're always colorful and the voice is always good.

I wouldn't rent from these people again if the rent was free. My experience with them was a never ending head ache of trying to get them to do the easiest things, fix faucets, clean common areas, clean up sewage back ups (which they let sit in my basement for a week in 90 + heat). One of the worst landlords I have ever had in Milwaukee. The day I moved out of that apartment was the happiest day of my life. I would struggle to think of a single positive thing to say about this company as they gave me very few positive interactions. The owner boasts about barely finishing high school and being a used car sales man. I think that pretty much sums it all up there. They also tried to evict us illegally for standing up for our rights and allowed drug dealers to live beneath us. Had they done a simple background check on the woman living there they would have known she had priors for dealing cocaine.
HORRIBLE. calling these people slum lords is an insult to other slum lords! They never do any property matinence, let just anyone live there, come after you under false pretenses for money and if you call to complain, they make YOU the problem! I'd rather be homeless than ever rent from these "landlords" again!
Horrible, irresponsible, DRUNK idiots who call themselves landlords. They refuse to fix anything, they rent to anyone including rude people who blare music at all hours of the day, and when you complain they act like it is your fault. Our old patio door is still broken, the carpet is disgusting and full of who knows what, no screen yet on second bedroom window - and those were problems from...
Quality affordable housing.

His provocative views on the profound disruption caused by cloud computing have made Randy Bias one of the most influential voices in the industry. Randy uses this influence to advocate an open and honest debate about which technologies will win in driving clouds to large-scale adoption. He has inspired organizations and individuals to embrace the disruption of cloud computing to transform business processes and position themselves to succeed in a new world where computing resources are ubiquitous, inexpensive, instantly scalable, and highly available.
Randy has been a vocal advocate for open systems for more than two decades. He was the technical visionary at GoGrid and at CloudScale Networks. He led the open-licensing of GoGrid's APIs, which inspired Sun Microsystems, Rackspace Cloud, VMware and others to follow. In 2006, he founded Cloudscaling with Adam Waters and since then has led teams that designed, architected, built and deployed cloud infrastructure for more than two dozen clients globally.
In 2010, Randy became an early and vocal supporter of the OpenStack project, and led the teams that deployed the first public OpenStack storage cloud (Swift) outside of Rackspace, and the first public OpenStack compute cloud (Nova). He is a founding Board Member of the OpenStack Foundation. He also popularized the cloud server "pets vs. cattle" meme.
Randy's voice can be heard through two Cloudscaling blogs and contributed pieces at GigaOm, CloudAve, O'Reilly Radar and others. Randy is consistently recognized by Informationweek, CRN, The Next Web and other publications as one of the top 10 influential voices in cloud computing. He is frequently interviewed in the trade and business media on cloud computing, and he speaks at dozens of industry events annually.

With research my dialogue will get better, this is my first story. However even then, I am a minimalist, so do not expect me to put a lot of dialogue between characters that will have little to do with each other through out the entire story. I write what needs to be said. I could have had Claire defend herself in the dialogue, but as that would have been pointless (she would have lost anyway), I just referenced it instead. Scenes with a lot of dialogue are good for showing off a character's personality, and I will do that, as we go. I will write everyday, as practice makes perfect.
Part 2 Chap one Present (the story continues)
Going over what happened two nights ago in her mind, she knew she was not even at the break room during the alleged incident. She had went to her favorite restaurant around 6pm. The incident happened at 6:15 according to the camera footage, catching her double walking into the office at 6:10. With little to go on, Claire decided to call the office for any info she could get.
"Hello, may I speak to Larry please?" she said.
"What is your call regarding?" replied the cold office lady's voice. "It's me Claire, it's about a confidential matter; is he around?" "Ohh....yes, wait just a moment.", she replied.
Larry takes the call from his office with his door shut, "Hi Claire, how are you? I hope your OK...."
"I am, I wanted to know.....I know it sounds crazy but whoever you saw on camera was not me, I'm sure of it---"
"Claire? Have you sought out help? With your problem?"
"As I have said---it was not me."
"OK... let's say it wasn't you, do you you have a twin, and if so---why would she do that to you?"
"Look....I have no twin, I just need some information so I can get to the bottom of this. Did she say anything to anyone?"

I was naked when I first met Dean Haspiel. I was modeling for a life drawing class when the attractively grizzled Haspiel—he looks like an Ashcan School boxer—swaggered in, surrounded by his fanboy entourage. What I didn't realize was that Haspiel was one of New York's top underground comic artists. If I had, I might not have spent a 20-minute pose with my middle finger up, pointed straight at him…

I guess I was kinda expecting more of a Penthouse Forum-type thing based on the first paragraph. I have a thing for naked chicks flipping the bird.
Hmm- I'm not so sure about this indie-comics porn thing. Seems awfully inky, not to mention low-paying. But if you want naked chicks flipping the bird, try suicidegirls.com, my former employer
Hey, if I want to see naked chicks flip the bird at me I'll stalk my neighbor's fire escape, 'kay? That's how Nature intended it to be.

A rules-based system for monitoring the movement and relative location of a plurality of electronic devices and performing specified actions, such as issuing notification messages and actuating alarms, when the conditions specified in tone or more rules are satisfied. The rules are accepted from a user. Each rule includes a condition part and an action part. The condition part includes at least one positional condition which defines the relative position of at least two electronic devices. The action part defines one or more functions to be performed when the corresponding condition part is satisfied. Each electronic device incorporates radio signaling means which preferably takes the form of a Bluetooth chip. The signaling device on at least selected ones of the electronic devices performs inquiry operations to identify other electronic devices which are with range of the inquiring device. The positional data derived from these inquiries is passed to a rules processor which initiates defined actions when one or more of the rules are satisfied. A web server may be used to accept rules definitions, receive posted positional data from connected devices, and initiate the actions specified by the satisfied rules. Alternatively, user devices may be programmed to perform one or more of these functions.

This invention relates to methods and apparatus for generating alarm or notification signals in response to the changing relative locations of electronic devices.
People are growing increasingly dependent on portable electronic devices such a cellular phones, personal computers, digital assistants, car locking controls, electronic watches, calculators, digital cameras, and the like. Because these devices are usually small, they are easily misplaced or forgotten, and because access to these devices is often essential, it is desirable to provide methods and apparatus for insuring that these devices are available when they are needed.
The functionality of both portable and fixed electronic devices is expected to be dramatically extended and improved by the advent of improved short range wireless connectivity provided by Bluetooth™ radio transmitters which are being incorporated into new electronic devices. The Bluetooth radio is built into a small microchip and operates within a globally available frequency band. The Bluetooth specification defines two power levels: a lower power mode with a range of about 10 meters for covering a personal area within a room, and a higher power level with a range of about 100 meters covering a larger area, such as a home or office. Software controls and identity coding built into each microchip ensure that only those units preset by their owners can communicate, and provide a mechanism for identifying other devices that are within range. As discussed below, this new technology may also be used to insure that needed devices are available when they are needed, and to provide related functions.
In a principle aspect, the present invention takes the form of a rules-based system for monitoring the movement and relative location of a plurality of electronic devices and for performing specified actions, such as issuing notification messages and actuating alarms, when the conditions specified in one or more or the defined rules are satisfied. The rules are specified by and accepted from a user. Each rule includes a condition part and an action part. The condition part includes at least one positional condition which defines the relative position of at least two electronic devices. The action part defines one or more functions to be performed when the corresponding condition part is satisfied. Each electronic device incorporates radio signaling means which preferably takes the form of a Bluetooth chip. The signaling device on at least selected ones of the electronic devices performs inquiry operations to identify other electronic devices which are with range of the inquiring device. The positional data derived from these inquiries is passed to a rules processor which initiates defined actions when one or more of the rules are satisfied. A web server may be used to accept rules definitions, receive posted positional data from connected devices, and initiate the actions specified by the satisfied rules. Alternatively, user devices may be programmed to perform one or more of these functions. The system may be advantageously used to issue notification messages to prevent needed electronic devices from being misplaced or forgotten.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating a network of electronic devices which utilize the present invention;
FIG. 2 illustrates the topology of a group of electronic devices as defined by ability of at least selected ones of the devices to identify other devices within its limited signaling range; and
FIG. 3 depicts the screen layout of a user interface dialog box used to define one or more of the rules used to control the operation of the system.
As contemplated by the present invention, a the relative locations of a network of electronic devices, each including a Bluetooth chip, are monitored to generate notification signals in accordance with user-defined rules. An illustrative example of such a network is shown in FIG. 1. Supervisory functions for the system are executed on a server 101 which is connected via the Internet 103 to a plurality of different fixed and portable electronic devices which employ Bluetooth chips to provide connectivity.
For example, the user seen at 105 uses a hand held cellular phone which is connected to the Internet 103 using a Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) radio link 107 and a WAP gateway server 109. Similar, the user's automobile 111 employs a second WAP link 113 and the WAP gateway 109 to connect to the Internet. Additional electronic devices, such as personal computers, at the user's home 115 and office 119 are also connected to the Internet via conventional means, including dialup and fixed connections to Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
Each of the foregoing devices are thus provided with Internet connections and each is further provided with a Bluetooth chip which enables that device to communicate over short ranges to still further devices (not shown in FIG. 1). For example, the user 115 may carry with them additional devices, such as a laptop computer or a personal device assistant (PDA), an electronic wristwatch, a remote control for an automobile door lock, a digital camera, or an electronic calculator. Each of these devices may be equipped with a Bluetooth chip which can communicate with other devices, including the user's cellular phone which includes a Bluetooth chip that enables it to also operate as a short range intercom device and as a portable phone when it is the vicinity of a base station at the user's home 115 or office 119.
The user's automobile 111 is also equipped with a cellular phone system capable of establishing data communications via the WAP gateway 109 and the Internet 103 to provide information, entertainment, and communications services to the occupants. The automobile may be further provided with a navigation system using the Global Positioning System (GPS), a diagnostic system capable of generating, displaying and transmitting status information about the automobile, The automobile's car locking system may employ a Bluetooth enabled transceiver to remotely control door and truck locks, lights, and anti-theft alarms.
At the user's home 115 and at his or her office 199, Bluetooth enabled devices may be integrated into a variety of fixed systems, including thermostats, appliances, entertainment systems, lighting controls, security systems, and office equipment. Although the Bluetooth chips in these devices may be primarily intended for different functions, they can play a useful role in the position monitoring and notification system contemplated by the present invention, a described below.
The invention may be advantageously applied to business as well as consumer applications. For instance, an engineer who customarily takes instruments and tools into the field may use the system to prevent these devices from being misplaced or forgotten. By using the user-defined rules for montoring the relative and absolute positions of various devices, in combination with user-defined actions which should be performed when associated conditions are satisfied, the system can be tailored to the needs of the particular user and the specific devices which that user owns and operates.
As described in Profiles, Specification Volume 2, Specification of the Bluetooth System, V1.0B, Dec. 1, 1999, under the Generic Access Profile, two devices involved in a Bluetooth communication can take the roles specified by the generic notation of the A-party (the paging device in case of link establishment, or initiator in case of another procedure on an established link) or the B-party (paged device or acceptor). The A-party is the one that, for a given procedure, initiates the establishment of the physical link or initiates a transaction on an existing link.
The Bluetooth access profile establishes the procedures between two devices related to discovery and connecting (link and connection establishment) for the case where none of the two devices has any link established as well as the case where (at least) one device has a link established (possibly to a third device) before starting the described procedure. The Bluetooth user should, in principle be able to connect a Bluetooth device to any other Bluetooth device. Even if the two connected devices don't share any common application, it should be possible for the user to find this out using basic Bluetooth capabilities.
Each Bluetooth device is specified by a unique 48-bit (12 hexadecimal digit) Bluetooth Device Address (BD_ADDR) and by a "user friendly". Bluetooth Device Name which can be up to 248 bytes long, although external devices are not expected to be able to handle or display more than 40 characters. Still further, each device is assigned a Bluetooth passkey (Bluetooth PIN) which is used to authenticate two Bluetooth devices (that have not previously exchanged link keys) to each other and create a trusted relationship between them. The PIN may be entered through a user interface device and may also be stored in the device; e.g. in the case of a device without sufficient capability for entering and displaying digits.
Bluetooth devices are further specified by a Class of device parameter received during the device discovery procedure and indicating the type of device and which types of service that are supported. The information within the Class of Device parameter is referred to as 'Bluetooth Device Class' (i.e. the major and minor device class fields) and 'Bluetooth Service Type' (i.e. the service class field). The terms for the defined Bluetooth Device Types and Bluetooth Service Types are defined in [11]. The Class of device is a bit field and, at the user interface level, the information in the Class of device is implementation specific.
Bluetooth devices are capable of performing an inquiry function to determine the identity and Device Class of other "discoverable" Bluetooth devices which are in range. With respect to inquiry, a Bluetooth device shall be either in non-discoverable mode or in a discoverable mode; that is, the device shall be in one, and only one, discoverability mode at a time. The two discoverable modes defined here are called limited discoverable mode and general discoverable mode. When a Bluetooth device is in non-discoverable mode it does not respond to inquiry. A Bluetooth device is said to be made discoverable, or set into a discoverable mode, when it is in limited discoverable mode or in general discoverable mode. Even when a Bluetooth device is made discoverable it may be unable to respond to inquiry due to other baseband activity. A Bluetooth device that does not respond to inquiry for any of these two reasons is called a silent device.
Bluetooth devices are capable of perform different types of inquiries called a (1) general inquiry, (2) limited inquiry, (3) name inquiry, (4) device discovery, and (5) bonding. The purpose of the general inquiry procedure is to provide the initiator with the Bluetooth device address, clock, Class of Device and used page scan mode of general discoverable devices (i.e. devices that are in range with regard to the initiator and are set to scan for inquiry messages with the General Inquiry Access Code) Also device in limited discoverable mode will be discovered using general inquiry. The general inquiry is intended to be used by devices that need to discover devices that are made discoverable continuously or for no specific condition.
The purpose of the limited inquiry procedure is to provide the initiator with the Bluetooth device address, clock, Class of Device and used page scan mode of limited discoverable devices. The latter devices are devices that are in range with regard to the initiator, and may be set to scan for inquiry messages with the Limited Inquiry Access Code, in addition to scanning for inquiry messages with the General Inquiry Access Code. The limited inquiry is intended for use by devices that need to discover devices that are made discoverable only for a limited period of time, during temporary conditions or for a specific event.
The purpose of name discovery is to provide the initiator with the Bluetooth Device Name of connectable devices (i.e. devices in range that will respond to paging). A Name request is the procedure for retrieving the Bluetooth Device Name from a connectable Bluetooth device. It is not necessary to perform the full link establishment procedure) in order to just to get the name of another device. In the name request procedure, the initiator will use the Device Access. Code of the remote device as retrieved immediately beforehand—normally through an inquiry procedure.
The purpose of device discovery is to provide the initiator with the Bluetooth Address, Address, clock, Class of Device, used page scan mode and Bluetooth device name of discoverable devices. During the device discovery procedure, first an inquiry (either general or limited) is performed, and then name discovery is done towards some or all of the devices that responded to the inquiry.
The built-in ability of a Bluetooth device to detect the presence and identity of other Bluetooth devices which are within its range may be used to provide location information which is then used, as described below, to generate useful notification messages to the user. An illustrative topology is shown by way of example in FIG. 2. As there shown, two fixed Bluetooth devices illustrated by the triangles A and F at 201 and 203 are each linked to the Internet as seen at 205, and both can operate in a long range mode. Thus, the device illustrated by the triangle F at 201 can discover the presence of and communicate with the Bluetooth devices illustrate by the circles B, C and D at 211, 213 and 215 respectively. The device indicated by the circle B operating in short range mode can detect the nearby device C, but the device D is out of range for the device B. The devices indicated by the circle G at 217 and by the circle I at 219 are both within the range of the D device F at 203. The device indicated by the circle E at 221 is out of the range of both the devices A and F, but is near to and can discover the presence and identity of device H at 223.
Those Bluetooth device which are programmable (e.g. personal computers, PDAs, and the like) may be readily programmed to detect and report the position of nearby devices. Thus, the device A may be programmed to detect the fact that devices B, C and D are within its range, that devices E, G, H and I are outside its range, and that device C is also within the range of device B but that device D is not.
A server seen at 230 is connected to the Internet, and hence to devices A and F. The server 230 receives HTTP messages from the remote devices A and F containing the position information obtained by transmitting Bluetooth inquiry messages from devices A and F, and by gathering position information obtained from satellite Bluetooth devices, such as the device B.
The server 230 executes a supervisory program which records the position information contained in received messages to establish state information at predetermined times. By comparing the state information at different times, transition events can be detected. Thus, if device B moves outside the range of device A, the time at which that movement occurred can be determined.
Other Range and Position Detection Systems
Other systems can be used to identify when particular objects are within a predetermined range of other objects. For example, identification tags which can be detected at short range are used in electronic article surveillance systems to prevent shoplifting and theft, warehousing and inventory control systems, article processing and inspection systems, and the like. Such systems are available fron Unisen of Boca Raton, Fla.; Detectag of Aurora, Ontario, Canada; and Sensormatic of Boca Raton, Fla. Using these range-sensing, tagging mechanisms in combination with the user-defined rules contemplated by the invention, the user can tag articles which should be, or should not be, in particular places at particular times, as defined by the condition part of user-specified rules.
In addition to, or as an alternative to, the range finding abilities of a Bluetooth device, an article surveillance system, or the equivalent, an object whose position is to be tracked may incorporate a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver for determining the absolute position in latitude and longitude for that device. For example, the GPS 25 series receivers available from Garmin Industries provide position information—accurate to within 5 meters, velocity information accurate to 0.1 m/s RMS, are small in size (46.5 mm�69.9 mm�11.4 mm), and consume little power (115 mA typical @5.0 VDC). For details on the Global Positioning System and GPS receivers, see Understanding GPS: Principles and Applications by Elliott D. Kaplan (Editor), Artech House; ISBN 0890067937 (1996).
In addition, Mobile Positioning Systems (MPS) which are incorporated into cellular phone systems provide a mechanism for continuously or periodically updating location information for cell phones. MPS technology is similar to the satellite-based Global Positioning System (GPS) but offers the additional capability of determining location inside buildings, parking garages and other shielded areas such as inside a pocket or briefcase that are inaccessible to GPS systems. MPS Mobile Positioning Systems for GSM cellular phones are offered by Erickson and Cellpoint, Inc.
When a GPS or MPS device is used to determine absolute position, the user defined rules which determine when predetermined actions are performed may include absolute position requirements. For example, the GPS receiver in an automobile navigation system may be used to add a condition to the condition part of a rule which states "If my automobile is more than 2 miles from my house, and . . . "
The range and absolute position data from the network of electronic devices may be advantageously stored in a relational database and manipulated using standard query services and procedures. These query services process location data which may specify the geographic "point" position of fixed objects (without absolute position sensing means) and movable object which use GPS or MPS mechanisms to determine current position. When precise data is unavailable, objects positions may be approximated by specifying defined regions which contain the objects. Preferably, this location data is stored in a standard format, such as that used by the locator feature in Oracle8i interMedia, a component of the Oracle 8i™ database available from Oracle Corporation, Redwood Shores, Calif. This locator feature, and Oracle Spatial, and its extensions used with the Oracle8i Enterprise Edition product, provides an integrated set of functions and procedures that enables spatial data to be stored, accessed, and analyzed quickly and efficiently in an Oracle8i database. Oracle Spatial provides a SQL schema and functions that facilitate the storage, retrieval, update, and query of collections of spatial features in an Oracle8i database, and includes the following components:
a. A schema that prescribes the storage, syntax, and semantics of supported geometric data types;
b. A spatial indexing mechanism;
c. A set of operators and functions for performing area-of-interest and spatial join queries; and
c. Administrative utilities.
For more detailed information, see "Oracle8i interMedia Audio, Image, and Video User's Guide and Reference." Release 8.1.,5 Oracle Corporation (Oracle Part No. A67299-01), 1999, and Oracle Spatial User's Guide and Reference, Release 8.1.6, (Oracle Part No. A77132-01), 1997, 1999.
The supervisory program executing on the server 230 can further accept rules definition from a user. For example, using a conventional forms based HTML/CGI interface, the user may specify the conditions which are to be satisfied before certain actions may be taken.
By way of example, the user may define rules with the goal of making sure a user does not forget to take certain devices with their person. These devices or things that people commonly carry with them and that have some value include a Palm Pilot, cell phone, wallet, keys, pocketbook, briefcase, and portable computer. Each of these items would be equipped with a Bluetooth chip. In addition, Blue Tooth chips could be integrated into a small device (here called a "badge") whose prime function is to indicate position and which can be could placed on or near stationary devices, such as the Palm docking station, or the cell phone recharger, with which Bluetooth devices or things bearing other Bluetooth badges could link to at times.
The "web of rules" of rules defined by the user could detect and inform the user of a rich variety of events. For instance, if the user's electronic watch was in proximity to her car during the day on Monday through Friday, then the user's cell phone and briefcase should also be in proximity to the car. That is, the cell phone and briefcase should be with the user when she is traveling, and the location of the watch signifies the location of the user. Thus, the user can define a rule which states that, if the watch is within the range of the car during business hours on Monday through Friday, and further if either the cell phone or the briefcase are not in the vicinity of the car at that time, the user should be alerted in of a variety of user-defined ways as described later.
As a further example, the user could establish the rule that if the user left the house (as determined by being out of range of the particular fixed device), and a house security system indicated that the doors were not locked, and if no other user was still present in the house, the departing user would be alerted.
The action taken when a give rule is satisfied can take numerous forms. In the foregoing example, the user can be notified by a actuating a suitable alarm on a device known to be with the user (e.g., by causing her watch it sound an audible alarm or to vibrate.). Other actions can be taken when a condition is satisfied. For example, when the user enters the car for the first time when the state information indicates a different person had formerly used the car the cars seats could be automatically adjusted for the new driver. As another example, when the system indicated that the user had left her house or her office at particular times of day, the telephone system could be programmed to automatically start call forwarding calls to a different location, or to automatically select a different greeting message that callers would hear when the calls were unanswered.
The supervisory program executing on the server (seen at 10 in FIG. 1 and at 230 in FIG. 2) could also currently report the position of articles. Thus, if the user had neglected bring her car keys, she could consult a display on her cell phone provided from the server using via the PDAs WAP interface, which might inform her that her keys (and its Bluetooth car lock control) were within range of the television set (with its Bluetooth remote control) her bedroom.
The rules can be defined by the user using an HTML forms-based interface on a Web server, or by running a program for accepting rules on one of the user's electronic devices, such as a personal computer. An example rule definition form is shown in FIG. 3. Each rule consists of up to for positional conditions, each of which specifies two devices and each of which states whether that particular positional condition is satisfied when those two devices (1) are close together; (2) a not close together, (3) have moved together, or (4) have moved apart. The first two possibilities can be determined by either of the Bluetooth chips issuing an inquiry to identify those electronic devices which are within its range, and the second two possibilities can be determined by comparing the current state of one of the devices with its prior state to determine which, if any, other devices have moved with.range or have move out of range between states. In addition, the dialog form seen in FIG. 3 allows the user to state the time of day and the days of the week when the conditional test is to be performed.
As seen in FIG. 3, the rule further defines an action part which specifies functions to be performed when all of the conditions in the condition part of the rule are satisfied. The user can enter the text of a message to be.displayed and specify the electronic device which is to display the message; the user can sound an audible alarm on a specified device; and/or the user can designated a named procedure to be performed on a programmable device.
It is to be understood that the embodiment of the invention that has been described is merely one illustrative application of the principles of the present invention. Numerous modifications may be made to the methods and apparatus described without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention.

Originally written on The Sports Bank | Last updated 5/1/13
Chicago Blackhawks vs. Minnesota Wild. It's a matchup that was under most people's playoff radar; until last night. A majority of pundits had the Chicago Blackhawks sweeping the Wild. Regardless, this will be an interesting series. The Blackhawks came out flat against a Minnesota Wild team that was at the top of their game in game 1 of the playoff series Tuesday night. The Wild experienced a set back as well as star goalie Niklas Backstrom was scratched from the game after injuring himself during pregame warm ups. No word yet as to when he'll return. Perhaps one of the best stories of the night was Wild back up goalie Josh Harding, who was diagnosed with MS prior to this season and hasn't started in net since January 30th, tallying a spectacular 35 saves against a very powerful Blackhawks offense. The Blackhawks picked up the slack midway through the 2nd as Marian Hossa scored off a pass from Patrick Kane. The game went to Overtime and would end in epic fashion as Johnny Oduya ...

Active within 3 days
Hi there!
About me… Let's see… Well, I believe that meaningful relationships require mutual respect, communication, laughter, physical attraction, and similar interests, beliefs, and goals. While I am looking for someone to spend time with, I also think that a certain level of autonomy is important. I am self-sufficient and motivated but also appreciate the little things in life and try not to take myself too seriously. I love to laugh and just be silly! I am most often described as smart, funny, and sweet. Originally from the mid-west, I have a great appreciation for the warm weather and nature of the southwest. I also spent about five years in southern California before moving to Arizona. The person that I would attract would have many of the same attributes and interests. If you think we may have a connection or would like to learn more, I would enjoy hearing from you!

I enjoy weekend get-away trips. I have lived in California and Ohio and enjoy going back to both (for different reasons :-) My favorite travel destinations are Hawaii and Aruba. I also enjoyed Napa Valley, New York City, and San Antonio.
I like Nexflix series like Breaking Bad and How I Met Your Mother, movies (Hunger Games, Bourne series, Wedding Crashers, Bridesmaids). A few random favorites: I love sunsets, my daughter's laughter, hydrangeas, salmon sashimi, and interior design.
I enjoy yoga, hiking, strength training, and fun runs to keep active. I like outdoor venues, spending time with family and friends, shopping, and service. I also want to learn to snow board this winter.

If you catch a truly big fish, the first thing to do is weigh it on certified scales with witnesses. Grocery stores, lumber yards - any business that has a scale certified legal for sale will do. And you'll need the date when the scale was last inspected and the scale number. Keep the fish alive or on ice and contact a KDWP office. A district fisheries biologist or fisheries regional supervisor must identify the species. In some cases, a tissue sample may be required. A color photograph and state record application must be submitted -- the biologist can provide an application or you can download one from the KDWP website. The application will be held for 30 days before certification.

Houston Komen race sees decline in registration, fundraising
By Erin Mulvaney | October 3, 2012 | Updated: October 4, 2012 12:13pm
Photo By Joyce MarshallCORRECTS TO REMOVE REFERENCE TO NUMBER OF YEARS AND RACES, TIGHTEN 2ND HALF OF CAPTION - In this April 14, 2012, photo walkers and runners stop for the Star Spangled Banner before the start of the Cure in Fort Worth, Texas. Organizers of Race for the Cure events across the country have reported drops in participation following a controversy involving Planned Parenthood. In Fort Worth, the participation declined by 23 percent. (AP Photo/Star-Telegram, Joyce Marshall) MAGS OUT
Photo By Rex C. CurryWomen protest in February at the Susan G. Komen for the Cure headquarters in Dallas after the decision to eliminate Planned Parenthood grants.
More Information
How to register
Houston's race is Saturday, predominantly along Allen Parkway.
Online registration: Visit komen-houston.org. You must pick up a race packet at walk-in registration. Walk-in registration: Available at IKEA Houston from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday; 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Friday; and 6-7:30 a.m. race day in downtown Houston.
This weekend's Komen Race for the Cure in Houston could see 3,000 fewer participants than in 2011 after the breast-cancer charity was thrust into a heated abortion controversy earlier this year.
In January, the Dallas-based charity announced it would stop making grants to Planned Parenthood for breast-cancer screening, prompting widespread criticism. It reversed its decision after three days.
Komen Houston says it has raised about $2 million including online, mail-in and corporate donations for the race. The charity hopes to reach its goal of $3 million - a million less than it raised last year - by Nov. 15.
A tally of donations on the Komen website shows its Houston affiliate has reached only 35 percent of its goal for this year's race as of Wednesday evening, but spokeswoman Lisa Bustamante said that only represents online pledges. She said they are hopeful to be at or near the $3 million goal by the end of the campaign.
As a result of the controversy, many Komen supporters around the country abandoned the 5K run and walk, which is the main event for the charity's fundraising. Participation dropped between 10 percent and 30 percent in some cities. The charity, however, has had a few races bring in more money and participants.
Houston's Komen affiliate could not provide exact numbers for registration for the 2012 race, set for Saturday, but acknowledged it had seen a decline since last year. As of Wednesday, the number of registrations was down 6,000 from the same time last year.
Still registering online
Affiliate spokeswoman Tania Cruz said 25,000 people have registered for the race so far and up to 30,000 could be expected to participate. In 2011, 33,000 took part, including 2,400 breast cancer survivors. The event raised more than $4 million for breast-cancer research, education, screening and treatment programs. About 3,000 people signed up between Wednesday and Saturday before last year's race.
Komen Houston did not immediately comment on why participation and fundraising are down this year. Online registration is open, and people are registering daily, Cruz said.
'We are encouraged'
Adriana Higgins, the executive director of Komen Houston Race for the Cure, said that some 80 percent of eventual participants will have registered by the weekend before the race.
"We are pretty much on target with how Houston responds," she said. "I don't think we were hit quite as hard as some areas of the country. ... We are encouraged and looking forward to a good day."
She reminded people that Komen is a fundraising and grant-making organization, with the money raised going back into the community.
Houston's Komen affiliate was established in 1990 to provide breast-cancer education, screening and treatment projects for the medically under-served and uninsured in Southeast Texas.
In its 22-year history, the affiliate has granted more than $9 million for research nationally and more than $28 million for community grants in Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty and Montgomery counties.
"We hope Houstonians show up for the race. ... We don't want to be on the political side of anything," Higgins said.

Environmental Health
Environmental health is defined as "the discipline that focuses on the health interrelationships between people and their environment, promotes human health and well-being, and fosters a safe and healthful environment."
In the Spotlight
Looking for Trouble: Seeing Eye to Eye with Health Inspectors is a report on U.S. aquatic venue inspections, findings, and recommendations. Produced in partnership with Axial Corporation's Water Treatment Products Group, details the comprehensive survey NACCHO recently conducted of aquatic health officials across the United States. The survey explored officials' protocols and experiences in inspecting recreational water facilities. Three-hundred local health departments participated in the survey, and notable results identify the types of aquatic venues with the highest turnover rates and the highest number of violations.

Funding Opportunity
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has announced a new funding opportunity, "Environmental Health Services Support for Public Drinking Water Programs to Reduce Drinking Water Exposures." The funding opportunity seeks applications from state and local health departments and U.S. territories and Native American tribal public health agencies. Funding these initiatives will improve the recipients ability to identify and address drinking water program performance gaps, improve efficiency and effectiveness of drinking water programs, and to identify and reduce exposures leading to contamination of drinking water. The intended audiences of this funding opportunity are communities and populations using small drinking water systems that are not covered under the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act. Applications are due June 22. More »
Featured CDC Resource
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) launched the nation's first voluntary guidelines based on science and best practices for improving health and safety at swimming pools and other aquatic venues: The Model Aquatic Health Code (MAHC) 1st Edition. States and localities can use the MAHC to create or update existing pool codes to reduce risk for outbreaks, drowning, and pool-chemical injuries.
The MAHC 1st Edition is a product of seven years of work, involving a steering committee, 12 technical committees, 140 people, and input and consensus from public health, aquatics, and academia. Click on more for additional information. More »
