BAGRAM AIR BASE, Afghanistan, May 1, 2008 A coalition medical team conducted medical screenings and provided routine treatment to 65 local citizens, including 25 children, in the Kama district of Afghanistan's Nangarhar province April 27.
Working with local leaders, the team set up a temporary treatment facility at a school in Mer Zert Kheyl village, while Afghan National Police and coalition forces provided security.
The team treated citizens suffering from various health conditions ranging from digestive disorders and eye problems to joint pain. In addition to the medical screenings and treatment, the coalition forces also provided free flour, rice and milk to the citizens.
"I found helping the Afghan people to be a rewarding experience," said one servicemember who participated in the medical treatment operation. "Throughout almost 30 years of war and strife, the Afghans have remained proud and strong. It was a privilege to help them stay strong and healthy."
(From a Combined Joint Task Force 101 news release.)

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE - Two Norcross men pleaded not guilty Thursday to 36 counts of animal neglect and fought to maintain ownership of their pit bulls.Animal Control Officer Joey Brooks said the citations were issued to Raymond Barry Washington, 25, and John Holmes, 21, because they were in violation of a county ordinance requiring adequate shelter, food and water for the dogs. At the hearing, prosecutors asked for the 36 pit bulls to be handed over to the county because the dogs were overcrowding the Gwinnett County Animal Control facilities. "We just don't have enough room to house them and the dogs we already have," Joey Brooks said. The prosecution said if animal control was given control of the dogs, those that did not have a suitable temperament for adoption would be euthanized. Prosecutors told the court that the dogs had a "fighting temperament" and that one of the dogs killed another earlier in the day. Brian Whiteside, attorney for Holmes, countered that the dogs were domesticated and were not fighting dogs. Whiteside said he believed it was not unusual for any dog to fight when placed in an overcrowded situation. Brooks said animal control was looking for the court to do something with the dogs, but attorneys for the defendants believed it would be a violation of due process to take the dogs from the defendants without a trial. The defense attorneys said they were unprepared to proceed with the custody matter, but their clients were willing to pay the cost of caring for the dogs at animal control while waiting for the matter to be resolved. Judge Patricia Muise ordered the defendants to reimburse animal control and set a trial date for Aug. 2. The pit bulls were taken July 12 after Gwinnett County Animal Control officers arrived at the defendants' home to find several dogs severely neglected, according to police reports. Whiteside said his client bred the pit bulls for sale and that the dogs were taken care of. The dogs were taken to the vet once a month and were registered with the American Kennel Club, Whiteside said. "This is not a case about pit bulls," Whiteside said. "This is a case about my client's right to make a living." Animal control officers also found several shallow graves in the backyard of the residence, one which contained the remains of a deceased pit bull puppy. Whiteside said the deceased dog had a disease and was taken to the veterinarian to be examined. When the puppy died, Whiteside said his clients inquired with their veterinarian about what they should do with the dog. Whiteside said the vet presented the owners with two options: bring the dog in to have the vet take care of it or bury it. "They did the traditional thing and buried it in the backyard," Whiteside said. Washington is being held on a possession of marijuana charge with bond set at $16,600. Holmes is being held on two possession of marijuana charges with bond set at $18,020. The two were arrested on the drug charges after police observed what appeared to be marijuana when responding to a request for help from the animal control officer on the scene, according to police reports. Tyrone Laval Drayton, 19, was also arrested on charges of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and giving false name or information, but he did not appear in court for the charges of animal neglect.

Two of the developers now looking for work checked in on the EQ2Flames forum to confirm the news and thank the community for their support. SOE's big-budget fantasy titles look to be the most affected by the moves. EverQuest II loses Brett "Timetravelling" Scheinert, responsible for various raid designs on the Sentinel's Fate expansion. Rumored Vanguard losses include William "Wigin" Bidermann
Finally, Steve "Saavedra" Kramer, a former EQII designer and most recently working on The Agency, was also let go. SOE also terminated two as-yet unnamed marketing employees.
[Update #2: While we now have confirmation that Jason "Ikik" Weimann was not among those let go (as originally rumored), we're still attempting to clarify the rumored departure of the other Vanguard dev. Joel "Raijinn" Sasaki's departure has been confirmed as well. We'll update the post as soon as we receive additional info.]

Come on Down – Sanibel Weather is Fine!
Posted By Island Inn On October 2, 2012 @ 11:28 am In Sanibel | No Comments
Technically speaking, summer is over. Fortunately, the weather on Sanibel Island doesn't seem to concern itself with technicalities. You might not be concerned either, especially if you are spending part of this fall or winter stretched out on Island Inn's beach with warm sand under your heels.
To paraphrase Ernest Hemingway's last novel, Islands in the Stream: if you live for a long time in a tropical island climate, you become much more attuned to the subtle shifts in the seasons. A Sanibel native can detect the change in the air in late September; sultry nights are fewer. By October, the heat of the day is a bit less intense. Come November, you might even reach for a sweater after the sun goes down. High and low temperatures in December through February are usually only 20 degrees "colder" than at the peak of summer (if you call low-to-mid-70s cold!) Visitors to Island Inn from Midwest states are accustomed to average winter highs that vary by 50 degrees or more, compared to the average summer highs, so they are pleasantly surprised by the mild "winter" weather they encounter on Sanibel and Captiva.
Southwest Florida is a warm place in general, but the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico surrounding Sanibel serve as a buffer from more extreme temperature shifts that occasionally sweep down the peninsula. Water changes temperature more slowly than land – thus the micro-climate of Sanibel and Captiva islands is strongly influenced year-round by the Gulf and the Bay.
Because of this blessed bit of meteorological circumstance, autumn and winter are peak seasons for visitors to the islands. Shedding the coats and gloves they wear at home late in the year, couples and families return to Island Inn from points north year after year. It's a traditional migration, but the novelty of the gracious Sanibel climate doesn't lose its capacity to provoke smiles. In fact, a more relaxed attitude seems to be universal. That's why early settlers of the region made their homes here – despite skeptical opinions from others who – early in the 1900s – saw southern Florida as nothing but a barren, mosquito-infested swamp. Those pioneers soon proved that assumption wrong and once the news got out the boom was on. Sanibel Islanders have been vigorous in guarding the old-Florida way of life, strictly limiting growth on the islands, literally preserving their environment.
Humans are not the only warmth-seeking visitors this time of year. Hundreds of species of birds linger on Sanibel during their annual migrations. As a result, the J.N. Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge [1] (a short bicycle ride from Island Inn) is a world-renowned spot for bird-watching [2].
Sanibel Island's weather is a magnet for visitors from around the world. Any time of year, the climate evokes the familiar saying: Come on down, the weather's fine!

You Can Smell the Grass!
First of all, the grass the hat is made of still retains the smell of cured grass! Considering the inexpensive cost, it's a better quality product than I expected. It has a thick elastic band to firmly, but not painfully, hold the hat in place. Though the front is wide enough to block the sun from your face, unfortunately the sides are not and there's no sun blocking in the back. The brim doesn't sit like it does on the model. It flips up on the sides, looking a little like a cowboy hat, kind of dorky, but I only want it for yard work so I don't care.

Ozzie Newsome and the Ravens didn't want to show any of their cards when talking with the media at a pre-draft press conference earlier this week.
And that's understandable. But one thing the longtime GM did say --the Ravens won't be focused on just one position. They'll look at anyone they like, something he made very clear in this long comment when asked about who the team might be interested in.
"To say we aren't going to take the best player, that would be wrong," Newsome said. "But like at the outset, they talked about us taking some interior defensive linemen. We could do that. Could we take some inside linebackers? We could do that. Could we take some safeties? We could do that. We won't pass up a good corner. You don't ever have enough good corners. You don't ever have enough good pass rushers. So, could we come away and say out of the 12 picks – if we use all of them – seven or eight could probably be on defense? Yes. But, they will be the best players at the time we pick them."
In other words, it's a definite possibility of a firm maybe.
The Ravens, even though they won the Super Bowl last year, have holes. Every NFL team's got holes, but the Ravens really lost some players to free agency and retirement. Where they are isn't a mystery to anyone. They could really use some help on defense, especially at linebacker, and at other spots.
But, as Newsome said, they like to grab the best player available. That's why it's so hard to predict what the Ravens will do in a draft. They stick to their philosophy and even though defense probably is the place the Ravens want help, it doesn't mean that's the only place they'll look.

Here's a look at the state of interest rates on five common consumer banking products and the latest rates from Bankrate.com's weekly national survey of large banks and thrifts conducted March 4, 2009.
The average interest rate for fixed-rate cards stuck to 12.24 percent and scooted up 2 basis points to 10.76 percent for variable-rate cards. A basis point is one-hundredth of a percentage point.
For standard cards, the fixed rate average held at 13.47 percent and variable-standard cards remained at 10.84 percent.
According to the latest Credit Trends Report from Equifax, one of the three major credit bureaus, the number of credit card payments 60 days or more past due rose to 4.17 percent in January, an almost 30-percent increase year-over-year. Open bank credit cards shrank in number from 438 million in July to 408 million in January. Credit limits declined by $290 billion since July, to $3.3 trillion.

Soul on Ice
Delta Trade Paperbacks, 1992 - 242 pages
The now-classic memoir that shocked, outraged, and ultimately changed the way America looked at the civil rights movement and the black experience.
By turns shocking and lyrical, unblinking and raw, the searingly honest memoirs of Eldridge Cleaver are a testament to his unique place in American history. Cleaver writes in Soul on Ice, "I'm perfectly aware that I'm in prison, that I'm a Negro, that I've been a rapist, and that I have a Higher Uneducation."

Eagles fans send team to the big dance
Eagle Pride was on full display Wednesday as hundreds "turnt it up" in front of McDougald–McLendon Gymnasium at N.C. Central University to wish the men's basketball team good luck in the school's first-ever NCAA tournament.
The crowd of mostly students, faculty, staff and alums cheered and danced in a cold rain for nearly an hour while they waited to see the team one last time before it boarded a 3 p.m. flight to San Antonio where it plays Iowa State on Friday.
Their patience was rewarded when the team finally emerged from the gym and immediately joined the party, dancing and bopping to a heavy bass line, courtesy of local radio disc jockey Brian Dawkins and his crew.
Emanuel Chapman, a senior guard from Raleigh, took the mic and thanked fans for their support and acknowledged the faithful who waited in the rain.
"Y'all have been holding us down all year," Chapman said.
He said fan support has been a key to the Eagles' success this season. "We can't win games without y'all and y'all can't brag to friends without us."
The Eagles gave fans plenty of reason to be boastful this season.
"It's amazing; it's history," said Asha Hicks, a sophomore finance major from Burgaw. "It's amazing to see this happen and be here to experience it. I think they have the potential to go a long way."
Chancellor Debra-Saunders White noted that the Eagles won the school's first conference championship in 50 years last week, defeating Morgan State in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference basketball championship.
"This is a real historical occasion for our university," said Saunders-White, who teased the crowd with an abbreviated version of the Wobble, a popular dance.
She also noted that the Eagles are getting it done in the classroom.
"Every senior on this team will march in May," Saunders-White said. "That's who we are and what we are talking about when we say Eagles soar."
Also on hand Wednesday was Fred "Pop" Bennett, who helped NCCU to the 1989 Division II NCAA national basketball championship.
"It's great for the university and it's great for the city," Bennett said.
He said if the Eagles "just play their game" then the team as the potential to go far in the tournament.
"I've got them getting past Iowa State and Carolina if they play together," Bennett said. "That's how we did it."
Hicks also believes the team can go deep into the tournament.
"I have a lot of faith in them," Hicks said. "With fan support, talent and hard work, they can go all the way."

Beethoven's Big Break (formerly known as Beethoven: The Reel Story and sometimes referred to as Beethoven's 6th) is the sixth installment in the Beethoven film series. It was released on DVD on December 26, 2008. The film is also considered to be a reboot of the series, or a stand-alone film, as it completely disregards all storylines from the previous five films.
Eddie Bob, a struggling animal trainer and widower dad, is an assistant animal trainer to Sal DeMarco, an untalented, egocentric animal show host. Both men have been hired to train the animals for a film called Frizzy, The Bichon Frise: Sal as the dog handler, and Eddie is given only the responsibility of training the lizard. When Frizzy is kidnapped, Sal quickly claims that Eddie was responsible for the dog handling. Eddie is promptly fired. The director refuses to pay the ransom and decides to instead hold auditions for the new Frizzy.
Meanwhile, Eddie's son, Billy Bob, is walking around town when he discovers a large, stray dog is following him. Billy then brings the dog home and names him Beethoven after the dog shows interest in Ludwig van Beethoven's 5th symphony, after initially trying to call him Wolfgang. Eddie comes home to discover that, not only is his job gone, but now his house is wrecked by an oversized dog adopted by his son.
Will soon learns that the one responsible for Frizzy's disappearance is Sal, accompanied by his two other cronies. He admonishes them for not waiting until Frizzy had already shot some of the movie, in order to make her valuable.
The next day, when auditions are held, the director has trouble finding the right dog to replace Frizzy. Eddie has arrived (with Billy and Beethoven in-tow) to pick up his lizard, Pete. Suddenly, Beethoven bursts in and performs an impressive chase scene with Pete the Lizard, which instantly makes the director love him. Beethoven and Eddie are hired on the spot, and Sal is fired.
To celebrate, Eddie takes Billy and Beethoven out for hamburgers, but Beethoven escapes with the burgers and leads Eddie and Billy on a chase. Finally, they find where Beethoven was going: he had been caring for his three small pups in an alley, as their mother had apparently died. In Beethoven's 2nd, she wasn't heard from again. Eddie begrudgingly adopts the puppies, as well.
Eddie is then charged with having Beethoven perform the requested stunts in the movie. Unfortunately, Beethoven proves to be "untrainable", and instead, often crashes through the scene and making a sloppy mess in the process. Each time, Eddie is prepared to be fired, but the director finds these scenes even more funny and orders the scenes printed for the film. Lisa, the film's writer, requests from Eddie to spend more time with Beethoven so that she can write more appropriately for him.
As revenge for being fired, Sal orders his henchmen to kidnap Beethoven for the million-dollar ransom, planning to kill him after the ransom is paid. They kidnap him while Billy is flirting with his crush in the park. Eddie, Billy, Lisa, and the puppies then head to Sal's show stage, which doubles as his secret lair, and rescue Beethoven. Sal and his goons are arrested, and Eddie and Lisa begin a relationship.
The film ends with Eddie, Lisa, Billy, Katie, Beethoven, the pups, and Pete the iguana, all enjoying snacks while watching the film's premiere.
The end credits have movie title parodies. These include Dog-E, When Hairy Met Frizzy and The Lizard of Oz. During the Gag Reel, Jonathan Silverman refers to Sal DeMarco as "Ned Ryerson". This is because the actor who played Sal, Stephen Tobolowsky, portrayed the character Ned Ryerson in the Bill Murray comedy, Groundhog Day.

Venice The Series Season Three Episode Ten.Thursday, January 26 2012
A bombshell is dropped about Gina and Richard's past, Van watches Lara with Sami, and Gina's letter is almost revealed.
At Guya's place, Brandon tells her they've a lot to discuss. She asks him to wait until tonight. He agrees to it and leaves. She heads out on the patio where she finds her sister gazing at Brandon. Katie is happy that Guya has Brandon. Guya scoffs when Katie says he reminds her of John. They wonder why Katie hasn't moved on yet.
Van watches Adrienne fix her hair at her place. They ignore a call from Owen. Van wants to take her out in the dress she wore for his cousin. He wishes that Owen would have caught them having sex behind the tree at Gina's party. She rolls her eyes and admits she's sick of this game. She and Owen like each other. He asks if she's sick of being free. Since she's not, the game will continue.
Richard drops by Gina's work and stammers before asking if they have a child together. He received a call from a 21 year old girl who was adopted at birth. She grew up in the Boston area and is looking for her biological parents. Richard remembers Gina went way to school in Boston and returned seven months later. She tries lying but in the end whispers, "I'm sorry." Richard becomes emotional and angry and stomps off.
Lara meets Sami at the bar. They order bourbon and Lara says her girlfriend's waiting for her at home. Sami thinks Ani is boring. She enjoyed the pages Lara sent her. She had issues with the main character, who is focused on being a know-it-all. Sami thinks she should write her the opposite. Lara likes bouncing ideas off someone. Later, Van watches from nearby. Lara's trashed and Sami urges her to stay. She caresses her hair while complimenting her eyes.
Gina stops by to tell Ani that Richard knows. Ani goes pale and hugs her friend. Gina flashes to a date with Ani from the past where they discussed her first real beau, Richard. Ani's surprised she was with a man. Gina confesses that she had a child with him but didn't tell anyone about it. She gave her daughter up for adoption to a nice couple. Ani's the first person she has told. Gina snaps back to reality, crying. She can always count on Ani. Once she leaves, Ani tidies Lara's papers. She doesn't notice Gina's letter sticking out from between the papers.
Christine's Commentary:
Another great episode. Brandon sure is taking his sweet time talking to Guya about the dead hooker. I'm not sure if he'll simply accept her 'I see dead people' answer that she gave Gina last week! Last week's episode made it obvious that Richard and Gina had a child together. Of course since we haven't seen Molly Burnett, we know she'll be playing the daughter. What's going on with Sami always tempting Lara and why is Van so interested in watching them together? Very intriguing. He's such a slime. I wonder what Adrienne did that he's holding over her. I'd love to hear your own thoughts about this week's episode. Please feel free to post a comment below.

"I really liked how sturdy the card is on its own. Although on my computer screen the colors are distinctively light blue, when I received this item I felt that the shade was closer to an aquamarine green. No biggie, I liked them just the same. I do wish I could have changed the "thanks" for "thank you," as I think it's slightly more formal. Having the option to change the top and bottom wording was really nice. I can honestly say I recommend this product."
"Given the colors of the text, I chose to use a black and white photo of my son, and the finished product looks great. The design came out just as I hoped it would. The note card is sturdy - I'm sure it will hold up well in the mail. As someone who likes to display the cards she gets, I know a card like this would hold up well on a refrigerator, cork board, etc."
"Fun & Funky design that is good for everyone in our family from the kids to the adults all year round. We'll be reordering. It would be absolutely perfect if it could be modified to say "A note from" or something like that so you aren't limited to sending as a thank you note, but not a big deal as we send mostly thank yous."
"My 2 year old son LOVES lions, so this card was perfect for his birthday party thank you's. As always, Tiny Prints delivered from a design, quality and price standpoint!"
"I bought these to use as thank-you cards to coordinate with the Sketched Sweetness invitations for my son's baptism. They are both described as the color Aloe, so I took a chance and the colors do match perfectly. I was able to choose the same font on both products which was great. The quality of both the photo and the paper itself were excellent as always."

Orange Vegas: Touchscreen for the skint
Orange has released the smallest, lightest, cheapest touchscreen in the UK -- the Vegas. Being broke, weak and tiny is no longer a barrier to taking up the tapping trend
Nowadays even hobos and toddlers have mobile phones, and they demand features. For them, Orange has announced the Vegas, which it says is the cheapest touchscreen phone in the UK.
The Vegas has an 1.3-megapixel camera, an FM radio and an MP3 player. It sports 128MB of internal memory, with room for up to 4GB more if you stump up for a microSD card.
It's only dual-band, but tramps don't go abroad, so that's cool. Orange says that at only 84g, it's the smallest and lightest touchscreen mobile on the market, so babies will have no trouble clutching it in their tiny hands.
It's going for only £48.50 on pay as you go and it's available from the Orange Web site in homeless black or cuteykins pink.

Embodiments of the present invention pertain to wireless communications. Some embodiments pertain to a quick access channel for providing uplink contention based access.
Typically, broadband wireless communication standards beyond 3G, e.g. 3GPP LTE, IEEE 802.20, and IEEE 802.16e-2005 (mobile WiMAX) use uplink (UL) grant scheduling to exploit user diversity, to offer Quality of Service (QoS) support, and/or to provide good spectral efficiency. However UL grant scheduling generally is different from downlink (DL) scheduling in several aspects. First, the UL scheduler generally does not have the detailed buffer information ready as the DL scheduler does. Each mobile station (MS) therefore generally needs to update its buffer level at the base station (BS) for efficient scheduling.
Second, it is often the case that the UL buffer level update does not have the same detailed granularity as DL buffer information. The DL scheduler typically has all the information for each connection identifier (CID). However, for UL scheduling, maintaining such detailed buffer information would result in an increased load for the UL signaling channel and thus incur significant overhead.
Third, it is typical to arrange all UL grant request in a common contention channel shared by all users such that signaling overhead is incurred only when necessary, i.e., when a MS has data to send in a UL frame.
Furthermore, the UL contention-based access and resource allocation mechanisms in IEEE 802.16e-2005 based systems (mobile WiMAX) includes random access and bandwidth request stages that generally result in additional access latency. In the current IEEE 802.16e-2005 standard, the UL grant request happens first in the contention-based ranging channel. Additionally, upon a successful contention, BS allocates grant for a bandwidth request and then a bandwidth request is issued by MS to the BS. The contention-based UL bandwidth request may take four or possibly more frames, depending on the implementation and transceiver switching time. Thus there can be delay and potentially a large overhead associated with grant requests and bandwidth request, especially with respect to small grant requests.
The following description and the drawings sufficiently illustrate specific embodiments of the invention to enable those skilled in the art to practice them. Other embodiments may incorporate structural, logical, electrical, process, and other changes. Examples merely typify possible variations. Individual components and functions are optional unless explicitly required, and the sequence of operations may vary. Portions and features of some embodiments may be included in, or substituted for those of other embodiments. Embodiments of the invention set forth in the claims encompass all available equivalents of those claims. Embodiments of the invention may be referred to herein, individually or collectively, by the term "invention" merely for convenience and without intending to limit the scope of this application to any single invention or inventive concept if more than one is in fact disclosed.
Base station 102 may include a MAC (Media Access and Control) component 106. MAC 106 may include an uplink scheduler 110 used to schedule resources (buffers, time slots, etc.) related to the uplink (e.g., MS to BS communication) for transmitting and receiving data through network interface 104. Additionally, MAC 106 in some embodiments may maintain a bandwidth (BW) request history 108. Bandwidth request history 108 may include data that associates a mobile station and a history of the mobile station's bandwidth requests over time. MAC 106 may include other elements (e.g., a DL scheduler) that are not necessary for an understanding of the embodiments and are therefore not shown to avoid obscuring the description of the embodiments.
In some embodiments, base station 102 may be a wireless access point (AP), such as a Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMax), or broadband communication station, although the scope of the invention is not limited in this respect as base station 102 may be part of almost any wireless communication device. In some embodiments, base station 102 may be a communication station, such as WiMax, or broadband wireless access (BWA) network communication station, although the scope of the invention is not limited in this respect.
Mobile stations (MS) 120 may be any type of device that desires to access a wireless network 130 through BS 102. In some embodiments, mobile station 120 may be part of a portable wireless communication device, such as personal digital assistant (PDA), a laptop or portable computer with wireless communication capability, a web tablet, a wireless telephone, a wireless headset, a pager, an instant messaging device, a digital camera, an access point, a television, a medical device (e.g., a heart rate monitor, a blood pressure monitor, etc.), or other device that may receive and/or transmit information wirelessly.
In some embodiments, base station 102 may be referred to as a transmitting station and mobile station 120 may be referred to as a receiving station or subscribing station, however base station 102 may have receiving capability and mobile station 120 may include transmitting capability. Although base station 102 and mobile station 120 are illustrated as having several separate functional elements, one or more of the functional elements may be combined and may be implemented by combinations of software-configured elements, such as processing elements including digital signal processors (DSPs), and/or other hardware elements. For example, some elements may comprise one or more microprocessors, DSPs, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), and combinations of various hardware and logic circuitry for performing at least the functions described herein. In some embodiments, the functional elements of base station 102 and mobile station 120 may refer to one or more processes operating on one or more processing elements.
In some embodiments, base station 102 and mobile station 120 may communicate in accordance with specific communication standards, such as the IEEE 802.16-2004 and the IEEE 802.16(e) standards for wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs) including variations and evolutions thereof, although the scope of the invention is not limited in this respect as they may also be suitable to transmit and/or receive communications in accordance with other techniques and standards. For more information with respect to the IEEE 802.16 standards, please refer to "IEEE Standards for Information Technology—Telecommunications and Information Exchange between Systems"—Metropolitan Area Networks—Specific Requirements—Part 16: "Air Interface for Fixed Broadband Wireless Access Systems," May 2005 and related amendments/versions.
Antennas 112 and antennas 122 may comprise directional or omnidirectional antennas, including, for example, dipole antennas, monopole antennas, patch antennas, loop antennas, microstrip antennas or other types of antennas suitable for transmission of RF signals. In some embodiments, instead of two or more antennas, a single antenna with multiple apertures may be used. In these embodiments, each aperture may be considered a separate antenna. In some embodiments, antennas 112 and/or antennas 122 may be effectively separated to take advantage of spatial diversity and the different channel characteristics that may result between each of antennas 112 of base station 102 and each of antennas 122 of mobile station 120.
In some embodiments, contention code 202 includes a subcode field 204. Subcode field 204 may be used to classify and identify code subspaces that contain special meaning. For example, the subcode field 204 may be used to indicate a buffer level for a bandwidth request in a coarse granularity. In some embodiments, subcode field 204 may be two bits of contention code 202. Those of skill in the art will appreciate that more bits may be used in alternative embodiments. In the example of a subcode field that is two bits wide, four code sub-spaces C1, C2, C3, and C4 may be established, such that
In some embodiments, the subcode field 204 may be used to indicate estimates on the MS buffer level as follows (where N1<N2<N3<N4):
Thus in the example provided above, a contention code having a '00' value in subcode field 204 indicates that an estimate of the bandwidth required by a mobile station is between 0 and N1 (inclusive) bytes. Similarly, a contention code having a '01' value in subcode field 204 indicates that an estimate of the required bandwidth is between N1 and N2 (inclusive). Those of skill in the art will appreciate that other code spaces may be established using more bits for subcode field 204.
Varying embodiments may use various values for Ni, where 'i' is the number of subcode spaces that may be created in accordance with the size of the subcode field 204. The assignment of values for N1 to Ni may take into account various considerations when determining the code space assignments that result from the values of Ni. For example, it may be desirable to assign N1 to Ni in a non-linear fashion, i.e., in an exponential manner. Doing so may provide better resolution for small requests and/or improve the efficiency by reducing unnecessary resource grants. Thus it may be desirable to consider the statistical distributions of bandwidth requests and frequency and significance of applications when designing values for Ni.
In addition, in some embodiments, the N1 to Ni-1 range may be considered close upper bounds for the bandwidth estimate in order to avoid the overhead of an additional BW request PDU for small grant requests.
Further, it may be desirable to match the cardinality of each code space with the empirical distribution of typical BW request patterns. For instance, using the example illustrated by
In some embodiments, the definitions of N1-Ni may be fixed in view of the fact that the real life network environment is not likely to change quickly. In alternative embodiments, one or more of N1-Ni may be dynamically changed. The change may be communicated through messages sent to the MSs that are in communication with the BS. For example, in some embodiments, the BS may periodically broadcast the mapping information in MAP components of a frame.
In some embodiments, specific codes may be reserved for fixed size bandwidth requests. For example, all codes in '0000 xxxx' may define a bandwidth request size useful for quick-ARQ feedback packets. Similarly all codes in '0001 xxxx' may be used for 64-Byte TCP signaling messages.
At block 304, base station 102 transmits an uplink grant message to mobile station 120 informing the mobile station of the granted bandwidth.
At block 306, mobile station may then perform uplink transmissions to base station 120.
As can be seen from the above, a BS may allocate the estimated BW required without polling a BW request packet and thus may reduce access latency by eliminating or reducing the delay associated with the BW request mechanisms of previous systems.
A generic MAC ID-based code structure is further described that may be configured to convey various information during contention-based system re-entry.
In some embodiments, BS 102 and Mobile Station 120 use a generic codeword comprising an optional synchronization, a data/control/signaling field, and an optional CRC field. The lengths of these fields may vary depending on the deployment scenarios. Additionally, the length of the synchronization field or CRC field or both may be set to zero depending on the bandwidth of the random access channel.
The generic access code may be covered by a unique access code that may be assigned to the MS following an initial system entry. The unique access code may be derived from the MAC-ID of the MS or may be derived from any orthogonal or quasi-orthogonal sequences. The MAC-ID based covers may be used to uniquely separate/identify the mobile terminals to allow faster system re-entry and BW requests. As a result, in some embodiments, a MAC header is not needed since the cover will uniquely identify the MS.
The contention code and subcode field and the methods described above may be used to define a novel transport/physical channel, herein called a quick access channel (QACH), where the mobile stations may use during system re-entry to not only request access but also request an estimate of required physical resources (BW request). The BW request may be signaled through the data/control/signaling field using appropriate number of bits. The QACH channel allows transport of low-rate data and/or control/signaling messages/information (BW-REQ) in the uplink during system re-entry. The capability to transport low-rate data may be beneficial for delay-sensitive applications such as VoIP and interactive gaming. The optional synchronization field (SYNC field) may contain QACH synchronization sequence.
At block 406, a new contention event occurs. The new contention event may be a system re-entry, a new application on mobile station 120, or any other event that causes a new contention. The mobile station 120 reuses the contention code saved at block 404 (or block 410) to attempt to establish or reestablish access to base station 102.
At block 408, a check is made to determine if the contention code used was successful in establishing access to base station 102.
At block 410, if the attempt is successful the mobile station 120 saves the contention code used and continues to communicate with base station 102. Control then returns to block 406 to await the next contention event.
If at block 408 the attempt to establish or reestablish access to base station 102 fails, for example if there is a collision or no response for base station 102, then in some embodiments the mobile station 120 performs the actions at blocks 412 and 414 with probabilities P1 and P2 respectively. At block 412, the mobile station reattempts to access the base station using the last successful contention code saved at block 404. At block 414, the mobile station randomly generates a new code for use in attempting to establish or reestablish access to base station 102. The method then returns to block 406 to use the saved code or the newly generated code for the next contention event.
In some embodiments, P1 and P2 may be equally probable, that is, P1=0.5 and P2=0.5. However, the embodiments are not limited to any particular probability values for P1 and P2. In alternative embodiments, P1 may equal zero, resulting in the mobile station making one attempt to reuse a previously successful contention code. If that attempt fails, a new randomly generated contention code may be selected.
Performance may be improved in some embodiments because when the system is not overloaded, contending mobile stations are adaptively assigned a reserved slot due to the reuse of the previous contention code and thus the contention level is effectively reduced. On the other hand, when the system is indeed overloaded, it will behave like random contention, i.e., no worse than random contention in any case.
A contention pattern may be a set of one or more contention-based accesses that exhibit similar characteristics, such as requested bandwidth. Each contention pattern may be assigned a unique code. In some embodiments, because legacy mobile stations may randomly choose a code from the entire code space, it may be desirable to physically (time/frequency or code based) separate such "quick-access ranging channel with code reservation" from regular ranging channel to avoid collision.
At block 506, a mobile station 120 having a particular contention pattern may be selected. For example, a mobile station 120 having a contention pattern indicating active reuse of a particular bandwidth size may be identified.
At block 508 base station 102 may send the selected mobile station a message indicating that the base station 102 has reserved one or more codes, where each code represents an estimated bandwidth request amount. One code may be sufficient in the case of a mobile station executing an application with a simple pattern or history of bandwidth requests. For example, a mobile station that may be executing a gaming session with frequent TCP packets in the uplink having a size around or below 100 bytes may result in a particular contention code being reserved by the base station for use by the mobile station for the TCP packets.
At block 510, a timer is set (or reset) to establish an expiration for the reserved code or codes. In some embodiments, the expiration period is self-clocked by both the base station and the mobile station.
At block 512, a reservation renewal event may occur. An example of a reservation renewal event is a successful bandwidth request on behalf of the mobile station using the reserved code or codes. In this case, the timer may be reset. In some embodiments, timers are reset on both the base station and the mobile station.
At block 514, the base station determines if a reservation termination event has occurred. One example of a reservation termination event is the expiration of the reservation timer. A further example is if the base stations returns a bandwidth request grant that is different from the request associated with the reserved code. For example, if the BS returns a 6-byte bandwidth request grant instead of a 100-byte grant as negotiated for the reserved access code, the MS should assume the reservation has been terminated and no longer exists.
At block 516, the reservation codes are considered terminated. The codes may be recycled for future use when contention patterns are identified on particular mobile stations.
Blocks 506-516 operate the same as discussed above with respect to
As an example of the operation of methods 500 and 550 of
It should be noted that the above described systems and methods may be combined or may be implemented separately from one another. For example, the sticky contention method illustrated in
The systems and methods above may apply to many network environments and applications. Examples of applications that may benefit from quick UL access and resource allocation described above include but are not limited to the following:
Various embodiments provide a method for achieving relatively fast UL bandwidth request for fixed-size and small packets.

We've got a match!
Posted: September 23, 2013|
THE gift of life is the greatest present anyone can give and anyone can receive.
This gift is what 33-year-old leukaemia sufferer Katherine Sinfield is cherishing as she breaks the news that a bone marrow donor has been found.
The reception class teacher from Balfour Street, Burton, was diagnosed in April this year. Since then she has been praying that a match would be found after doctors told her it was the only way her life could be saved.
She said: "Your world is turned upside down when you discover you have leukaemia, but finally, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
"Being told you have a donor match is a huge sense of relief as it signals a major turning point.
"Before, when I was in hospital, the days turned into weeks and the weeks turned into months and I never had sight of the finishing line. The goal posts kept moving by the day whereas now, I know exactly what is happening and when, and I know what we are aiming towards.
"Somebody who I have never met, nor will I probably ever meet, has done the remarkable thing of signing up to the bone marrow register to give me the gift of life. Without this person coming forward, my future looked bleak."
In a remarkable twist of fate, the date Katherine estimates will be her 'day zero' or transplant day – October 29 – falls on her late mother's birthday. It also falls a day after the second anniversary of the death of her husband Stephen's sister.
Both her mother Eileen, and sister-in-law Sharon, died of cancer in 2011.
Katherine, who is the wife of Mail journalist Stephen, added: "Your transplant date is your second birthday as you are being given a new lease of life. It is so special that my transplant date could potentially fall on my mum's birthday as we will be able to share a birthday together."
Husband Stephen told the Mail: " I was really frightened that she would come out of the chemotherapy sessions without a donor and so all of the treatment would be fruitless.
"We would both like to thank every new donor who came forward because of Katherine's very public fight with leukaemia and the Mail's 'Take Five Minutes' campaign."
The Mail launched its Take Five Minutes campaign to try to increase the number of registered blood and bone marrow donors.
Despite her good news, Katherine is adamant the donor campaign needs to continue.
She said: "I have said from the outset that this wasn't a campaign to help me. This was a campaign to help every one of those 30,000 people each year who are told they have leukaemia.
"I'm only different because I chose to make my fight very public for the benefit of everyone.
"It breaks my heart to hear that for every person who finds a bone marrow donor – one doesn't. And the grim reality is that without a matching donor, those people, could, and most probably will, die.
"I was exceptionally lucky in that I had a shortlist of four potential donors – but all of them came from outside of the UK. More needs to be done in this country to get young people on the bone marrow register and to urge more pregnant mothers to allow their umbilical cord blood to be used.
"My battle is hopefully drawing to a victorious end. Now let us help everybody else who is desperately searching for the gift of life."
