So I've just started dating this guy about 3 months ago. We have kissed twice and I'm starting to realize that whenever I decide I want to kiss him I get really sleepy and basically fall asleep so it never happens. Does this happen to anyone else? I'm also concerned about it triggering my cataplexy. Please tell me I'm not the only one who has this problem!

Narcolepsy with Cataplexy has caused me difficulties with dating.
Since a young age just talking emotions and/or especially engaging for a kiss, causes intense emotions for me and there is definitely some form of Cataplexy interference.
We each have a different individual story.

If someone could move this to the relationships thread that would be great I somehow put this in the wrong place.

Next weekend will bring us the Alaska premiere of Leonard Bernstein's "Mass: A Theatre Piece for Singers, Players and Dancers." The Anchorage Concert Chorus will be joined by the Alaska Children's Choir, Alaska Dance Theatre and the Dimond High School Symphonic Band.
A small electric rock band ensemble is mixed in with the orchestra. The versatile Steven Alvarez, who has previously performed the roles of Jesus Christ ("Superstar") and Che Guevara ("Evita"), will be featured in the extensive solo part of the Celebrant.
In addition to two performances in Atwood Concert Hall, at 8 p.m. Friday, and 4 p.m. next Sunday, there will be a free panel discussion at 4 p.m. Thursday in Room 307 of the Consortium Library at the University of Alaska Anchorage. Local Christian and Jewish clergy will join Gerald Moshell, the stage director of the production, to talk about Bernstein's piece with regard to broader ideas about public art and a multicultural society.
Alvarez will present some selections from the work. Members of the public who attend the panel will be able to get tickets to performances for half-price.
"Mass" may be the most celebrated serious composition by an American of the past half century. Jacqueline Kennedy commissioned the work for the opening of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., in 1971 and is said to have suggested to Bernstein -- a Jew by birth and free-thinker by inclination -- the idea of using the church liturgical form that previously provided the framework for masterpieces by Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and others.
Bernstein had a secure reputation as a conductor as well as a Broadway composer, with "Wonderful Town" and "West Side Story" to his credit. His status as a "serious" composer, at least in his own mind, was more open to question.
Receiving the commission shortly after his 50th birthday, he was keenly aware of the fact that few classical composers established themselves as masters with works written later in life. He threw himself into the project, agonizing over details right up to the last moment. Collaborators included Stephen Schwartz, composer of "Godspell," and Paul Simon.
While Bernstein's "Mass" uses the language of the Roman missal, both in Latin and English, it adds text extrapolating aspects of the ancient words as the Celebrant, acolytes, street singers and others comment musically, verbally or by dance. The theatrical aspect revolves around a crisis of faith on the part of the Celebrant.
The debut drew mixed reactions. Some churchmen were moved; others found it blasphemous. President Nixon didn't attend because of Bernstein's leftist politics. Others begged off due to having already heard enough of the composer's earlier, often lugubrious, stabs at writing serious music. The New York Times' critic sniffed at the attempt to mix religious sentiment with show tunes.
Bernstein could find solace in the fact that the original recording sold phenomenally well. Forty years after its premiere, it continues to be widely performed. In the "all is forgiven" category, the Pope himself attended a production at the Vatican during the Jubilee Year of 2000.
But that success has not been enough to put Bernstein into the widely circulated lists of great classical composers. His fame still rests on the ballad and dance numbers from "West Side Story," which are so popular that it's hard to say anyone would pay attention to the rest of his music.
Among the more problematic aspects of the writing is the attempt to incorporate '60s rock, a genre that ultimately remained alien to this composer (among many others). While he was intrigued by rock lyrics -- Bernstein was a lifelong poetry enthusiast -- from a musical perspective, his pop sensibilities seemed more firmly cemented in the swing and bop of his own youth.
Which is not to say that one should find something else to do this weekend. On the contrary; "Mass" is sufficiently complex and so rarely performed outside big markets -- and potentially profound, depending on aspects of presentation that have yet to be known -- that I put this down as a "must-see" as soon as it was announced.
We've heard the recording; many have enjoyed what they heard. But to see it will surely add depth and dimension required to put Bernstein's magnum opus into proper perspective.
Tickets are available at centertix.net.
Yup'ik dance volume wins award
I've never heard that Leonard Bernstein knew anything about "yuraq," also known as "Eskimo dance," the sophisticated combination of song, poetry, dance, pantomime and drumming.
But something about "Mass" reminds me of the art form.
A recent book from University of Alaska Press, "Yupiit Yuraryarait: Yup'ik Ways of Dancing," deals with yuraq in depth, with text by Theresa John and Ann Fienup-Riordan and fabulous photos by James Barker -- who has documented the revival of Native dance for decades.
The book was recently honored with the Alaska Library Association's 2011 Alaskana Award at the association's annual conference in Juneau. The award "is presented annually to titles that make a significant contribution to the understanding of Alaska and that exhibit originality, depth of research, and knowledge of Alaska."
Speaking of which, the annual Yup'ik dance festival in Bethel, Cama-i, will take place at the end of this month, March 25-27.
Music in the dark
The raven that blew out electric power for downtown Anchorage last Sunday didn't stop the Alaska Chamber Singers from presenting their concert of folk songs in Sydney Laurence Theatre.
Emergency lights remained on, so the singers lined up in the "box" seats, where several exits provided the most illumination.
Conductor David Hagen positioned himself somewhat in the middle of it all. Reports from the hall say the acoustics from that position were as good as from on stage.
Last look?
In 2010 we reported that the giant ice carving extravaganza in Fairbanks, Ice Alaska, was in danger of losing its long-term home on land owned by the Alaska Railroad.
That report ended on a note of optimism, with various politicians suggesting that it would all work out happily. The latest word, however, is that an accommodation has not been reached and, when the show ends this month, the organizers will have to take their things and leave.
So see it while you can.
Arts council meeting
The Alaska State Council on the Arts will hold its quarterly meeting on Friday from noon to 1:30 p.m. at the council offices, 161 Klevin St., Suite 102, Anchorage.
The public is welcome to attend. For details or teleconference instructions, please contact the council office at 269-6610 or toll free 888-278-7424.

According to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, the Redskins are excited about the way linebacker Brian Orakpo has looked so far in training camp.
The Redskins aren't in any rush to do a new deal with pass rusher Brian Orakpo, from everything I have heard, and given his injury issues in the past they want to see how this season plays out. And there's always the franchise tag as well.
But the organization has been buzzing about the camp he is having and the kind of season he could be primed to have. In the past, Orakpo rarely had his way with top left tackle Trent Williams in one-on-one drills. Orakpo putting up 12 sacks or more wouldn't shock me, in which case his price will only go up. But I understand the Redskins thinking here, and while he is a core guy, you want it at the right price and you want to see him stay consistent and healthy.
In the past the Redskins tended to overpay in free agency and in valuing their own emerging your talent, and being pragmatic in this case is a good thing. If Orakpo balls out, Dan Snyder will pay him, gladly. That's never been an issue there.
The Redskins are doing things the right way. There's no reason to pay Orakpo right now. While he's a great player, he needs to prove he can stay on the field in 2013.

Chehalis Vintage MX & Trials Nationals 8-14-11 "The Farm"
Friday afternoon I spent several hours just sorting thru all the parts and pieces we might need and worked at getting loaded up. At one point, being weary of the whole process and running short on time, I literally took several containers of metric fasteners and just dumped them into the bottom of one of the parts buckets. Too many things to sort and load and not enough time! Past experience has proven that if you don't bring it you will need it and if you do bring it you most likely won't, so we brought everything but the kitchen sink. On the trip up, the old Ford F250 4X4 was straining with its load of bikes, tools, spare parts and travel trailer, but after a nervous couple of hours, we made it. On the trip home we had to stop and add three quarts of oil, so you know the old beast was working pretty hard. Whew!
We arrived at the track about 6:30 PM and wondered (a.) where was our friend Don Matthews and (b.) where was Paul? We didn't have Don's number with us and after a quick look around decided to just go ahead and park. We gave Paul a call and made sure he was on course and told him we were saving him a spot next to us. We also realized later we had parked directly across from Don & his crew after all! When we had our camp and pits all set up, we went to the barn and played bingo. Had a good time, met many new people and Jan even won a nice folding camp chair.
Later, when back in camp, everyone was just sitting around enjoying a perfect moonlit night when Paul decided to get out his camera. He began to experiment with shutter speeds, and took all kinds of interesting pictures, even getting the kids into the act using glow sticks for special effects. This kept everyone pretty well amused until bed time. Besides being a very skilled rider, Paul is also endlessly entertaining!
Saturday morning we all got up bright and early and set out to follow Paul thru his Observed Trials adventure. Luke and Al arrived (Lady Bug couldn't make it) on their adventure bikes and joined right in. A group of us (Lonnie, Al, Luke & Patrick) rode bicycles and followed Paul from section to section, while a few others walked back and forth between sections 1, 2 and 3 to watch. My daughter Christine and her friend Brad ended up walking to all 10 sections which was a pretty good feat in itself, considering how spread out they were and the terrain. There were a total of 10 sections and the riders had to complete each of the ten sections 3 times. There was also a time limit that became critical for Paul as the day progressed.
Paul's performance in the trials was pretty impressive, not only is the bike heavy and awkward, but it was also having carburetor or tuning issues and if we adjusted the carbs to keep it from stalling, it would intermittently start free revving. Luke and I concluded that it must have a valve on the left cylinder getting tight and possibly giving the carb an intermittently weak vacuum signal. There wasn't time for a proper fix, so Paul just had to tough it out. Regardless of bike issues, Paul did an amazing job, the most memorable for me being section 5. This section featured a steep side hill with a sharp right hand approach up an embankment and then immediately followed by a tight left hand turn, causing several riders to literally loop out their bikes, even crashing back to the road below. And what did Paul do? He just went thru it with a perfect score! We were all hooting and hollering for joy, we were amazed. At the end of the process Paul had finished with a score that was about mid pack, no small thing for his first trials on a bike that was running poorly and ill suited for the event.
On a side note, probably the most impressive trials rider was
Tom Street
riding a 1949 rigid frame Indian whose score for 30 sections was only a 3! I've never been to a trials event before but now have to admit, I'm hooked!
After the trials concluded, the rest of the day was spent fiddling with bikes and gear, visiting and looking around at other bikes, the most amazing for me being the VME group from Seattle, with a whole bevy of Rickman framed Matchless, Norton, AJS and other huge vintage four strokes that were museum quality but used regularly for Trials and MX. Pretty amazing.
Christine had made some team "Barn Fresh" shirts and due to demand, ended up going into town with Jan, buying more shirts and art supplies and making more. Al took a few pictures of the group wearing these shirts and will be posting them soon.
Sunday morning dawned bright and early, first the riders meeting, then practice. The bike suddenly sprouted oil and fuel leaks we had not seen before, and the group consensus was my recent switch to synthetic oil was the culprit. I would go out for half a lap, see a new leak, come in the pits, get repaired, go out ride another half lap, find a new leak, make another repair and so on. I ended up getting only one full lap of practice at speed and then brought the bike to the pits to wait for Moto 1. The good news was we were the last race in both motos (races 16 & 32), so we had plenty of time to make repairs. Crew Chief Randy Hess soldiered on all day and with Paul and Lonnie's help plugged the tach drive that was suddenly squirting oil, rebuilt the fuel petcock (we already had new gaskets and seals), replaced all the fuel lines and rebuilt the gas cap and even made a new gasket for that.
By the time Moto 1 rolled around at 12:00, I was feeling petty confident that the Barn Fresh crew had plugged all the leaks and I could just focus on riding. Decided to start from the far inside pole and have a shorter run to turn 1. I had a reasonably good start, ended up around 5
going into turn one and thru the course of the race gave up a few positions, the most most notable pass was when the top expert rider came up from behind and went around to lap (Wes Poole 19X, BSA 500 single), he was riding at a whole other level and was fun to watch, I tried to pick it up a little and attempted to ride his lines but could only keep him in sight for 3 or 4 turns until he was long gone. Impressive.
Moto 2 got off to late start due to a serious crash and injury to one of the riders, I do not know his name but he crashed hard in turn one and had a double fracture of his arm, and other injuries unknown. The ambulance crew did a great job taking all due precautions, and once the track was cleared we began again. It was probably a little after 4:00 and my race was the absolute last race of the day, and the pits were beginning to empty out. I decided to try the far outside pole and although I had clearer run to the first turn, it was little longer and I think cost a few positions. I did feel very calm and ready and even though I had a worse finish, actually felt like I was riding better. Toward the end of the race I was shifting less due to fatigue, over revving the bike a little in some places, and on the last lap I could hear the engine starting to miss. I have no idea how I finished the day, but am guessing maybe 10
or 11
overall in class?
After the race was over, I loaded the bike into the truck and was just sitting there trying to take in oxygen when Jan ran up and said, "Dick Mann is out on the track, you better get over there and get his autograph!" We had stopped by his motor home several times during the weekend to get an autograph but had just missed him each time. I ran out to the track (huffing and puffing) and was able to enjoy a brief moment with this legendary rider. Dick is my all time hero of motorcycle racing and getting his autograph and talking with him for a brief moment will always be a cherished memory.
Overall Chehalis was great fun, I feel good about how both Paul and I performed, especially considering both of our bike's limitations. We met quite a few people who have a great deal of experience or knowledge with the Honda twins which should prove helpful during the winter rebuilding process.
Thanks again to all of my friends and family for their support and to my new Adventure Rider friends that continue to show enthusiasm and support. Thanks to my crew chief Randy Hess, to Paul, Lonnie, Patrick and Al, to my Daughter Christine and friend Brad, to pit chicks Cindy and Karen and most of all thanks to my amazingly supportive wife and best friend Jan. Also thanks to Alex Martens of Konflict Motorsports, Brian Timmons of Wide Open Motorsports and to Ken Quay of Forest Grove Honda. I'm a lucky guy and have a lot to be thankful for. Here are a few photos from the weekend;

Dozens of Massachusetts charities have been hurt by scandal, including major BIDMC donors
BOSTON, Feb. 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center has been urged to investigate a member of its Board of Overseers who raised millions of dollars for Bernard Madoff in what is alleged to be the biggest Ponzi scheme in history, which may have a devastating impact on dozens of charities and non-profit organizations throughout the Commonwealth. BIDMC Board of Overseers member Robert Jaffe was a broker and vice president of Cohmad Securities Corp., which was based out of the same Manhattan office building as Bernard Madoff's firm.
Jaffe twice failed to appear after being subpoenaed by Secretary of State William F. Galvin, who has moved to shut down Cohmad Securities because of its connection to the Madoff scandal. On February 4, Jaffe finally testified before the Massachusetts Securities Division, though he refused to answer questions.
However, it is not clear if Beth Israel Deaconess has conducted its own investigation into Jaffe or requested his resignation from the Board of Overseers. Yesterday, 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East sent a letter (attached) to the BIDMC Board of Directors, urging them to investigate Jaffe's conduct and remove him from the Board of Overseers if appropriate.
"It's a sad irony that someone who raised millions for the what may be the biggest Ponzi scheme in history is on the BIDMC Board of Overseers," said 1199SEIU Executive Vice President Mike Fadel. "In the interest of patients and the hospital's charitable mission, we hope this BIDMC Overseer's conduct is fully investigated."
The Board of Overseers of BIDMC is charged with supporting the charitable endeavors of the organization and acting as goodwill ambassadors to the community. Given the high profile nature of the scandal, and its effect on several of BIDMC's largest donor

continued Not coincidentally, CBA had claimed six of the first seven draws. Head coach Doug Sedgwick said his team spends 15 to 20 minutes at each practice working on draws.
"It (draws) is the most important thing in the game," he said.
Just as important as the draws was the sheer variety of options CBA could deploy. The first nine goals came from eight different players as Olivia Pitonzo, Emily Ehle and Rachel Vercillo all joined in the scoring parade.
"It doesn't matter who scores, we just want the goals," said Sedgwick.
Before it hit the 21-minute mark, CBA's lead had grown to double digits, 12-2, and the running clock was in place. By halftime, CBA enjoyed a 28-4 advantage in shots and a 14-2 advantage on the scoreboard.
By herself, Romeo had won 11 of 17 draws and put up six points as she totaled three goals and three assists. Poplawski contributed two goals and two assists, with Cook and Pitonzo also finding the net twice.
Ehle and Cook both ran their totals to four goals in the second half, while Poplawski and, Pitonzo each added a third goal. Romeo tacked on a goal and two more assists to give her four goals and five assists overall. Of the 26 draws, CBA claimed 19 of them, and it took 40 shots to Watertown's 10.
Sedgwick said that what gives his team a better shot at a state championship is the mix of senior leadership and youthful energy, which is clicking at the right time.
"There's a wonderful team chemistry here," he said. "These girls genuinely love each other."

While the game didn't go the way that Wild fans would have wanted, Zach Parise (2g-1a-3—pts), Mikko Koivu (1g-1a—2pts) and Dany Heatley (1g-1a—2pts) all had a pretty good night and scored all four of the Wild goals. The Blues would win the game in overtime with a goal from former Boston Bruins forward Vladimir Sobotka.

Suzuki TC90, the coolest $30 I've spent in awhile.

Joined: Aug 2008
Location: a very small island
Oddometer: 12
Hey that's a great find!
The TC 90 was one of my first bikes back in OZ in the 70's. I have fond memories of racing around the farm with my mates on that bike. In fact, while my TC was smaller than my mates bikes (TC/TS 125s), it was certainly faster in a straight line drag
. Krikey, we took those bikes everywhere - rounding up cattle, through rivers, up into the bush in the hills, and 'racing' on motocross tracks. They were bullet proof.
However, I did have one big problem when the rotary disk valve disintegrated and got sucked into the engine. The countersunk screws retaining the rotary disk valve friction casing had vibrated loose until they rubbed on the valve and fractured it. When you strip yours down, check the condition of the disk valve, remove those casing screws and then loctite them back in place. Also, check to make sure the automatic oil pump is working properly before you get the engine running.
The high / low gear option proved to be useful in really snotty terrain and when rounding up cattle.
The bike you have found looks pretty original and would be worth keeping it that way if you can source the missing bits. Altogether, a super little bike which gave me a soft spot for Suzukis ever since. Good luck with the rebuild.
Veterans remember.

1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
Alright, they have this thread in a lot of other forums and, for it's quite fun, I thought why not having one here as well...
I'll start:
1. ... for supporting the German DC team in Slovakia though he couldn't play
2. ... for crying after the doubles final in Athens
3. ... for playing such fantastic tennis at the USO 04
4. ... for looking so cute with shorter hair
There're plenty more reasons that I could list, but I'm sure you'll be happy to post as well...
Re: 1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
Respect.... :worship:
I know I mentioned this the other day in one of the other threads .
Ive so much respect for Kiwi. Unlike some players doesnt adopt a clinical relationship towards his fans. He treats them as equals and is constantly keeping them informed.
Im not saying that all players arent bothered, I guess they are busy, but kiwi makes that extra effort and has gained so much respect because of it.
Re: 1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
damn, 1001 reasons are a lot for Kiwi... not sure if we ever come close to this number due to our limited fan potential as Kiwi is no Roddick, Federer, Coria etc... ;)
but nevertheless, I'll start with the following points
5. ... for having played doubles with Rainer (hopefully more to come in future!)
6. ... for having had a cool Adidas cap :cool:
7. ... for having such a cool playing style
8. ... for pumping his fist when he wins important points :devil:
Re: 1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
ok, I continue:
9. ... for his cool homepage and his updates
10. ... that he's every year in Halle (Gerry Weber Open) :-)
11. ... that he's always optimistic
12. ... for the four finals 2004
Re: 1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
13..for having the most gorgeous beautiful green eyes
14..for speaking french with an adorable accent
15..for hugging and kissing his fans
16..for having such charisma
17..for being NOT like other players!
Re: 1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
great idea :worship:
18. for qualifying and being in SF of year end championship in 2000 (I think?)
19. for doing so well in Asian tournaments (because I am Asian ;))
20. for playing tennis in a smart & "enjoyable to watch" way
21. for having such a huge serve
Re: 1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
23. it's also one of the funniest birds, the NZ Kiwi, I always have to smile when I see a KIWI ;)
Re: 1001 reasons why we all love Kiwi...
24. For his boyish enthusiasm when he is asked about his favourite football team, Hannover 96. You can tell he's a true fan, it's quite endearing

Nitron Racing Shocks!

So I will give an update after 2.5 months of ownership:
I won't say the Nitron shock will cure everything but it did end my back pain. I realize that sounds like a joke but it isn't. I commute every day and my worn out stock shock had zero dampening left. My back hurt quite often and was always popping and cracking. I never thought much of it but every since I got this shock I have noticed it is gone. I think the fact I actually have suspension has made that pain go away entirely.
Aside from that the shock is awesome, it provides a plush ride and keeps you planted. I also like that you can adjust the preload while riding. You cannot do that with the stock shock.

Kamikaze pilots, Beats and Hells Angels all part of meth crisis history
Most of the nation was oblivious to methamphetamine as it slowly became the drug of choice in Southern California, quietly replacing crack cocaine and phencyclidine, or PCP, in the 1980s.
Then one day in March 1989, a raid on dozens of homes in San Diego County revealed a surprisingly robust methamphetamine industry. Hundreds of local, state and federal officers shut down 29 meth labs, arrested almost 100 manufacturers and seized 830 pounds of ephedrine, the drug's main precursor, in what a Drug Enforcement Agency spokesman called the single biggest roundup of meth manufacturers in the nation's history.
San Diegans woke up to the news that they were living in the meth capital of the nation. That distinction is no longer consider valid 18 years later, but the problem has not gone away. In 2006, San Diego County had 174 meth-related deaths, 5,811 admissions to meth-treatment facilities and 7,370 people were arrested on suspicion of possession or selling meth. About 39 percent of adults and 10 percent of juveniles arrested last year tested positive for meth.
Warnings aplenty
The drug's road to prominence in San Diego County was long and winding, and began four decades ago in San Francisco, which experienced the first meth epidemic in 1967.
"We've lived with it for so long, but I've heard lots of people say, 'I thought methamphetamine was a new problem,' " said Dr. David Smith, a physician who has lived in the drug-affected San Francisco neighborhood of Haight-Ashbury for 47 years.
"The first urban speed epidemic seems to have been forgotten," he said.
Smith opened the first Haight-Ashbury free clinic 40 years ago in response to a wave of drug-using young people who were moving to the city as part of the 1967 Summer of Love, when thousands of young people moved to San Francisco at the height of the hippie counterculture movement.
A drug culture
Marijuana and LSD, a so-called mind-expanding drug, were a large part of the culture that was loosely united by music, art and opposition to the Vietnam War.
But by the end of that summer, Smith said his clinic was treating more and more young people for the effects of another drug: methamphetamine, made at the time by members of the Hells Angels motorcycle club and known on the street as speed.
Unlike the peace-loving hippies high on pot, speed freaks could be so violent that Smith had to treat them in rooms separate from his other patients. The clinic began the "Speed Kills" campaign that summer to discourage people from using the drug, a stimulant closely related to amphetamine.
While many look back nostalgically at the 40th anniversary of the Summer of Love, Smith remembers it ending with heartache and violent disillusionment.
The mouse cage
Methamphetamine's violent effects were no surprise to Smith, who began his research into methamphetamine after hearing reports of the violent effects of diet-pill abuse in the so-called bohemian culture or Beat Generation.
Smith focused on the drug in his 1965 thesis, in which he studied the effects of meth on caged mice, which normally are peaceful enough to groom one another. A mouse on meth, he discovered, interpreted grooming as a violent attack, usually prompting a fatal fight.

A method and system for airport or other building security where passengers or persons entering a building must undergo a positive identification process. Data about the person including a scan of a government supplied ID like a driver's license or passport along with a photo is entered in a database and checked against various law enforcement databases. The person is given an electronic card that has wireless capability. The person carries the card while in the airport or building. The system is notified when the person enters a secure gate area, boards or leaves an aircraft, etc. In addition, the system can determine if a person is carrying more than one card or if a card has been abandoned. The system detects and tracks any undesirable person in the airport or building and provides a means for apprehending the person by security or law enforcement personnel.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates generally to the field of airport security and more particularly to a method and system for identifying and tracking a passenger or employee in and through airports.
2. Description of the Related Art
It is well known in the art of airport security to provide an identification badge to employees. Passengers on the other hand are identified only by a single photo ID that may be presented at check-in time. Security consists entirely of two questions concerning baggage. No check is made on the passenger and the passenger's whereabouts is not tracked. The only other encounter where anything is checked is when the passenger checks into a flight. Here a boarding pass is presented and the passenger boards the aircraft. There is no verification that the same passenger who checked in is the one that boarded, and it is very easy for a boarded passenger to exit the aircraft after boarding without being noticed by anyone. In short, security at airports is minimal as to who a passenger is and where the passenger is.
Prior art systems have proposed electronic tickets and smartcards that can be carried by passengers. Tuttle in particular in U.S. Pat. No. 5,914,671 teaches a system for locating an individual in a facility where a portable wireless transponder device is borne by the individual. Tuttle's device resembles a standard security badge with a possible photo of the individual on the badge. Tuttle's invention is directed toward location of employees who would wear such badges. Tuttle also teaches that a passenger could also possess such an ID and be located. However, Tuttle makes no reference to any type of security checking of the individual. U.S. Pat. No. 5,914,671 is hereby incorporated by reference.
Yokozawa et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 5,740,369 teach an information delivery system and portable information terminal where an individual possesses a smartcard type of wireless device and can be tracked by a wireless system. Yokozawa also teaches a person passing through a check-in gate with the gate itself recognizing and communicating with the portable device by wireless means. While Yokozawa teaches a wireless device carried by a passenger, this reference also fails to mention any security aspects of the situation. U.S. Pat. No. 5,740,369 is hereby incorporated by reference.
The prior art thus teaches systems where passengers and/or employees carry wireless smartcards that communicate in data bases; however, none of these systems solve the tremendous security problem that exists at airports where potential passengers could be terrorists, felons or other dangerous persons, and whether a passenger actually boards a flight and remains on the plane, and whether the passenger actually arrives and exits a second or subsequent airport. In the current airport system and prior art systems, there is no connection or relationship between airline database information and security database information.
What is badly needed in the art is a method and system of airport security where a passenger can be positively identified at check-in time, tracked at all times in that airport, tracked while boarding an aircraft, tracked upon arrival at a second or subsequent airport, and noted when exiting a final airport. In addition, a system is badly needed that ties into police or FBI databases to identify dangerous people in the airport or approaching flights or boarding aircraft and then leaving the craft before takeoff.
The present invention is a method and system for airport or building security where a passenger or other person presents him/herself at the check-in counter in the normal way. A government generated picture ID is also presented in the normal way (drivers license, passport, etc.). The present invention however then requires additional positive identification by fingerprint scan, retina scan, voice scan, handprint, palmprint, finger length comparison, or other means. In addition, a new photo can be taken of the passenger during check-in. The total data thus acquired can be compared against law enforcement, FBI, databases (also INTERPOL, etc.), or immigration to determine immediately if the potential passenger is wanted or known to be dangerous. There needs to be no indication at the check-in counter if a positive ID is made on a dangerous individual; rather, airport security personnel are immediately notified.
After the ID process, the passenger can be checked into the flight in the normal way and then given a smartcard wireless device (which will be called a PASS smartcard) which serves as a boarding pass and airport tracking device. The pass smartcard is a small, flat, card like a credit card that can contain electronics and wireless communication capabilities. Since the location of this smartcard wireless device can be tracked in the airport by normal wireless antenna location means, by GPS, or by direction fixing between multiple antennas, or any other tracking means, the approximate location of the person is known at all times while in any area of the airport or building. In the case of a positive ID of a dangerous or wanted individual, law enforcement officials can apprehend the person anywhere in the airport or building that allows a safe and non-disruptive apprehension.
The system also reports when the person has passed through carry-on security (normal X-ray, etc.), or any other security check point, when the person is in the departure gate area, and when the person has boarded an aircraft. At boarding, a second security check can be made with a second fingerprint or retinal scan or any other positive identification means to verify that the person who checked in originally is the one boarding the flight. The system can positively make sure the person boards a certain aircraft and stays on since egress could be controlled by having to present the PASS smartcard to exit. In the rare case of someone having to legitimately leave an aircraft after boarding, airline personnel would be immediately notified by the smartcard at egress to ascertain why the exit is being made and being able to assist the person (who might have gotten on the wrong plane, might be sick, etc.). An illegal or unexpected egress would be immediately noted by airport security personnel. It is also possible to continue to communicate with the PASS smartcard inside the aircraft if the craft is also equipped with a wireless system. In addition, satellite communication can be carried on with the aircraft and smartcards inside the aircraft while it is in flight or parked at a gate.
Upon arrival at a final or intermediate airport, a normal egress from the aircraft would be noted by the system in the new airport. The passenger's location could be tracked by the system to baggage pickup and airport exit, or until re-boarding a subsequent flight. When the passenger finally exited the final airport, the smartcard could be collected and recycled for reuse, and the system would note that the person had left the system.
The key to the present invention, and the major improvement over prior art, is the total and positive identification of the person, a possible security check on every individual in an airport or any other secure building against law enforcement or immigration/customs information, positive tracking at all times as to the location or the person in the world air transportation system consisting of all participating airports, and a final determination that an individual has arrived at a final destination and departed the system.
The present invention could be optionally applied to all people in airports or any other building including visitors by also requiring them to register on entry, at least by fingerprint scan, and also carry a pass smartcard while in the airport or building. This system would not be an unacceptable burden on privacy considering it would be totally unintrusive except for the required positive ID and the requirement to carry the smartcard while in the airport. Anyone who tried to leave an airport without a smartcard could be stopped and re-identified (sometimes people might loose the smartcard). A lost pass smartcard could be located through wireless communication with it. In this optional scenario, probably only a fingerprint check would be made at the entry with a very simple, visitor's PASS smartcard being given to the person. In the case of a passenger; a more sophisticated PASS smartcard could be exchanged at check-in time.
The more sophisticated version of the PASS smartcard could be equipped with an LED display device where flight schedules could be called up and with a alarm that would buzz or otherwise indicated upon the approach of boarding time. In addition, the more sophisticated PASS smartcard could be tied into the internet for the convenience of the passenger so that the passenger could receive or send E-mail, get stock quotes, or generally surf the internet while waiting for the flight. An buzz or audible alarm could sound if there was an important announcement coming in for that passenger such as a gate change, etc.
The present invention anticipates the need for greater and more sophisticated security at airports, other buildings, secure venues, and/or government facilities. It offers a simple but elegant solution to the problem of whether a person should be in a certain area or not, whether the correct passenger has actually boarded and stayed on a flight, and whether at a final destination, a passenger has deplaned and actually left the airport. The present invention prevents someone having two boarding passes, or someone boarding the wrong flight, or someone exiting an aircraft after boarding without airline personnel being aware. In addition, the present invention allows apprehension of wanted persons entering airports or boarding flights while preventing identity switches between the person who checked in and the person who actually boarded the aircraft. The present invention can also optionally be used for non-passengers such as employees and visitors.
For a more complete understanding of this invention, reference should now be made to the embodiments illustrated in greater detail in the accompanying drawings and described below by way of examples of the invention.
It should be understood, of course, that the invention is not necessarily limited to the particular embodiments illustrated herein.
Most airports are constructed with an airline check-in area with long counters where passengers are checked into flights.
At this point, the perspective passenger is required to submit to a positive ID check. This ID check can be in the form of a fingerprint scan, an eye retinal scan, a hand scan, a palmprint, a hand scan, a finger length scan, or any other positive identification means including DNA or other means for positive identification. After the passenger has had positive ID data taken, the PASS system optionally takes a current photo of the passenger, and presents all the data to a computer data base. At this point, the data can be checked against Police, Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), FBI, INTERPOL, immigration, customs, postal service, or other databases. If law enforcement databases are remote from the airport, the data can be transmitted by modem, LAN, WAN, internet, or any data transmission other means.
The passenger is then handed a PASS smartcard which will be fully described shortly. This smartcard is a wireless device that can contain data and can be tracked for location throughout the airport complex. The passenger is of course also entered into the airline database in the normal way for flight check-in and possibly for weight and balance. The system contains antennas 32 for tracking the smartcard. These antennas 32 can be located in many places in the building or airport complex in question.
The passenger is then allowed to leave the check-in counter with the PASS smartcard as an electronic boarding pass and tracking system. If there has been any discrepancy in the ID given by the passenger after checking the data against law enforcement and DMV databases, law enforcement or airport security officials can track the location of the bearer of the PASS smartcard anywhere in the airport. If there is sufficient cause, the passenger could be apprehended at a time and place determined by law enforcement or security officials (assuming an outstanding warrant, a false or forged ID, or other major reason for concern).
Most airports are constructed with a baggage and carry-on security checkpoint 5 which usually contains X-ray equipment for checking carry-on bags and metal detectors (possibly explosive detectors) to check for weapons and dangerous material. In the present invention, this checkpoint 5 also can communicate by wireless means with any PASS smartcard nearby. As the passenger passes through this checkpoint, the system notes this progress. The PASS smartcard can be optionally hand read with a magnetic reader, or the entire process can be carried out by wireless communications. If the passenger subsequently leaves the secure gate area for any reason, this can also be noted.
Once in the gate area 6, the passenger approaches the flight departure gate and passes another checkpoint 7. Here again the system notes the location of the passenger and the fact the he or she is actually boarding an aircraft. A database check can be made to assure it is the correct aircraft, and if wrong, airline personnel can be immediately notified. At this aircraft boarding checkpoint 7, a second positive identity check can be optionally performed such as taking another fingerprint, retinal scan, etc. again. While this second scan is optional, it tremendously enhances security if used since it can be determined if the correct individual is the one boarding the aircraft.
If a passenger tries to leave an aircraft after successful boarding, the PASS smartcard can be immediately detected, and airline personnel and if necessary security personnel, can be notified. Since there may be legitimate reasons a passenger might deplane (sickness, trying to make a phone call, simply changed mind about traveling, etc.), airline personnel should make sure at this point the reason. The difference between the present invention and the prior art is that with the present invention, the fact that the passenger has deplaned is immediately known.
The present invention can also determine if a given individual is in possession of more than one PASS smartcard, or if a card has been lost. This feature is very useful in making sure that passengers on planes are the ones who should be there and that they actually take the flight. If someone tries to deplane without a PASS smartcard in their possession an alarm could be set off or security personnel could be notified. This is easily accomplished since there could be an alarm at the plane entry and exit point 7 that detects anyone trying to pass. A quick interrogation of the person's PASS smartcard could prevent the actual ringing of an alarm while still alerting airline personnel.
The check-in station can contain a positive identification means or device 9 which can be a fingerprint scanner, an eye retinal scanner, advanced DNA scanner, hand scanner, palmprint scanner, finger length scanner, or any other means that may exist now or in the future for positive identification of an individual. The station is also equipped with a camera 10 which can be a digital still photo camera, a TV camera, or any other type of camera or image generation means. The station can also contain a document scanner 28 known in the art for scanning in the ID presented by the passenger.
At check in, the passenger approaches the check-in station counter 8 in the normal way. As mentioned, an optional, government generated, photo ID such as a drivers license or passport can be presented by the passenger and scanned using the scanning means 28 provided in the station. A digital photo can optionally be taken with the camera means 10, and a positive identification can be made with the positive identification means 9. The preferred method is a fingerprint scan or an eye retinal scan; however, any means or method of positive identification of an individual is within the scope of the present invention.
After the above mentioned data is taken, it is entered into the PASS database of the present invention. From here it can be transmitted or compared against law enforcement, immigration, or customs information to determine if the individual is wanted or is a threat in any way, or if there is any other law enforcement interest. After normal airline check-in, the passenger is presented with a PASS wireless smartcard which will be described in more detail shortly. This smartcard is equipped with a transponder so that it can be tracked as to location anywhere in the airport.
In addition, the wireless communication can be continued on into the aircraft if the craft is equipped with wireless communications capability. The aircraft's security system could thus also maintain satellite communication with the rest of the PASS system at all times including when the aircraft is in flight.
In any case, the present invention allows tracking of the passenger from the non-secure part of the airport into the secure gate area, and finally onto the aircraft by various antennas 32 located throughout the facility or airport. Upon arrival at a different airport, the present invention allows tracking of the passenger from the aircraft 13 into the secure gate area 12 out of that area to a baggage area or to another transfer aircraft, and either out of the airport or onto a second aircraft. The present invention would trap any abnormality such as exiting the aircraft after boarding, carrying more than one smartcard, or in the case of the second positive ID, the wrong person boarding. Airline personnel or law enforcement or security could be notified of any such abnormal event. The present invention also gives airline and law enforcement personnel positive knowledge of who was on an aircraft. In the unlikely event of an aircraft accident, this information could be very valuable in determining who was involved or in identification of bodies (who may still have functioning smartcards on their persons).
The advanced PASS smartcard 16 of
In all cases, the PASS smartcard would store information about the person who was carrying it. This would aid in identifying who was carrying it if it is lost, misplaced, or deliberately abandoned, or in the case of an aircraft accident.
Tracking of the PASS smartcard 16 within the airport can always be accomplished using a series of local antennas within the building. Normal burst transponding techniques can be used. Any type of wireless method of handling multiple stations can be used including spread-spectrum, bluetooth wireless, or any other wireless means. Transmission between airport antennas and the smartcard 16 can be radio frequency or optical, including infrared, continuous, packet, burst, or any other means using time-division multiplex, frequency division multiplex, code division multiplex, ATM, or any other communication method. Modulation can AM, FM, PM, using any type of PCM or data communications technique or combination of these methods including QAM and QPSK, or any other modulation technique. In addition error correcting codes and retransmission techniques known in the art can be used to assure data integrity.
The central control point 22 in
Position location can be accomplished by using signal strength to determine the nearest antenna to the PASS smartcard in question, direction fixing by multiple antennas, or GPS techniques where a GPS receiver is incorporated into the PASS smartcard. Currently GPS receivers are bulky and cannot be readily incorporated into a smartcard; however, as technology improves and becomes smaller in physical size, it is foreseeable that GPS could be part of the tracking means and method of the present invention. No matter how position is determined, the present invention requires resolution to at least major location areas within an airport. The higher the position resolution, the better; however, the system can run with minimum position resolution as long as position is known well enough for security personnel to find a person in an airport or building area.
In the case where multiple airports or buildings are linked into a single system, passengers with smart cards can be tracked from airport to airport around the world from the time a passenger first enters and airport to the time the passenger leaves the airport system at a final destination including tracking of passengers aboard aircraft in flight using satellite communication techniques. In addition, the system of the present invention can track airport employees both full time and part time or temporary, and baggage if a smartcard is attached to baggage. Even though the present invention could be used to track baggage, its primary purpose is to identify and track passengers or people in a building from the point of view of security and law enforcement as well as that of the airline. Thus, the most powerful feature of the present invention is its ability to identify and find an undesirable passenger, or one with whom law enforcement or security might have an interest and its ability to detect an unexpected event such as the egress of a passenger from an aircraft or a secure gate area or the abandoning of a smart card. The latter case could be detected if the card does not change location for a given period of time. An alternate means of detecting the fact that a smartcard has been lost or abandoned is for it to contain an optional body heat detector. An overall lowering of temperature could indicate an abandoned smartcard.
In one of its forms, the PASS system of the present invention could keep records or passengers who fly frequently so that when they re-entered the airport system, data could be sent to them via the smartcard as to fare specials, etc. Also, repeat travelers could be tracked as to their trips and their destinations to aid law enforcement locate illegal couriers, etc.
It is to be understood that the above-described arrangements are merely illustrative of the application of the principles of the invention, and that other arrangements may be devised by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

Backup Exec Server Service fails to start
I have just installed Backup Exec 2012 on a Standard Windows 2008 R2 box and am unable to get into the software. When I open up the Backup Exec software I get a login prompt for the server and a message saying some services failed to start. The service that is not loading is the Backup Exec Server service. I am using an account with local admin rights.
I have tried re-building my server and re-installing the backup exec software but I am still running into this issue.
I have gone through alot of the forums and tried changing the services to run as the local system account, tried renaming the msq00000.dat file to .old, tried reinstalling .net, and tried re-building the database but none of those have worked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Comments 7 Comments • Jump to latest comment
Local admin rights is not sufficient. Make sure that your BESA have sufficient rights. See the documents below
Requirements for the Backup Exec Service Account (BESA).
How to define/grant the required user rights/permissions for a Backup Exec Service Account ( BESA )
Although these documents for BE 2020, they are valid for BE 2012.
Went through the document to assign the user rights and added my backup account to the "act as part of operating system. Then ran gpupdate. That did not work. This account is also a member of the backup operators group.
I also tried adding the account to domain admins just to see if that works, but I am still unable to start the server service.
When I try to start it from services the exact message I get is "Windows could not start the Backup Exedc Server service on Local Computer - Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly".
Please go to taks manager & go to process & check if lugetupdate.exe is present if present please kill the process & try to start the beserver service & check
See for error in event viewer application tab & update if above step doesn't resolve the issue
Don't forget to give a "Thumbs Up" or Mark as "Solution" if someones advice has helped you.
In My case, the backup exec management service failed to start.
My solution was to start the IIS Admin Service, followed by the HTTP SSL Service, these 2 were not running initially. After restarted this 2 services, i managed to start the backup exec management service and voila able to login to BE2012.

There are people on GoDaddy with BackupBuddy and it works fine for them. But if you already have BackupBuddy then support questions are best asked in the BackupBuddy forum after you log in with your ithemes username/password. There you can also post the results you get when you test the database settings. If it is saying it doesn't like the login credentials or bad address kind of stuff then check with host to make sure using the right ones and that they don't need the settings to be written a certain way.

LAS VEGAS, N.M. (AP) - A prosecutor has cleared New Mexico State Police officers of any wrongdoing in the fatal shooting of a man at his home just outside Las Vegas.
According to the Las Vegas Optic, District Attorney Richard Flores says the May 8 shooting was justified because Arcenio Lujan's actions caused an immediate threat of death or great bodily harm to the officers.
State Police had said the officers shot Lujan after he pointed a rifle at the officers after they went to his residence because of a report of a suicidal man.
Lujan had been fired that day from his job as a Las Vegas park maintenance work.
Lujan was fired after walking out of a meeting during which a supervisor questioned him about alleged abuse of prescription medication while working.
