Roasted Carrot and Apple Slaw
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: This is similar to my "Brilliant Autumn Salad" but without the beets. You really should use a food processor with a grating blade when making this, as the roasted carrots can be somewhat difficult to grate manually. You may find it a bit messy, but the deeper flavor from roasting makes the effort worthwhile. I do hope you enjoy this. ;o) —AntoniaJames
Serves 6 - 8
- 1 pound carrots, peeled
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon champagne vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Pinch of salt
- 2 -3 tablespoons fruity olive oil
- 1 tart apple, peeled and grated (Grate it immediately before tossing with the dressing.)
- Freshly ground pepper
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Scrub and peel the carrots. Roast them whole in a baking pan with a couple tablespoons of water, turning them every 15 minutes or so, at 350 degrees, for 30 to 45 minutes, depending on size. When a knife goes easily into the carrots' thick ends, but they are still a bit firm, remove from the oven and let them cool.
- While the carrots are cooling, whisk together the lime juice, mustard, vinegar and salt, in the bowl in which you plan to serve the slaw. Then whisk in the olive oil.
- When the carrots are cool enough to handle, grate them, using a food processor. Then grate the apple. Toss both with the dressing and let it sit for a few minutes. Test for and correct salt if necessary. Sprinkle on the chopped mint and freshly grated pepper and toss again.
- This can be made well in advance. Make sure that it comes to room temperature though before serving.
- I hope you like this. Yours affectionately, AntoniaJames. ;o)

Knoxville (WVLT) -- To go along with the fatal shooting in Christenberry Heights, the Knoxville Police Department was busy today working several over shootings around the city.
In the Lonsdale neighborhood of Northwest Knoxville, two separate shootings occurred within 12 hours of each other today on Minnesota Avenue.
Those two shootings sent three victims to the hospital, each with minor gunshot wounds.
The first happened just after 1 AM when a man and woman were each shot in the arm.
An ambulance took one victim to UT medical center and a friend brought in the other for treatment several hours later.
The second shooting occurred just after 1 PM.
Police say three men in a late model Oldsmobile shot Maurice Ligon in the leg.
"We have an investigator on the scene," said KPD Lt. Ronald Green after the shooting. "He's going to go to the hospital, talk to the victim, get some information from him, and see if he knew the suspects and what they may have been wearing and take it from there."
Within an hour of the second Minnesota Avenue shooting, shots rang out across town on Natchez Avenue.
Police have released few details in that shoot, but they did confirm that a minor was shot in his ankle and taken to the hospital for treatment.
All the shootings are still under investigation.
If you have any information please call the crime hotline at 865-215-7212.

DH was cutting trees (in the woods obviously) on Thursday, and now he and I both have red splotches and tiny dots on our arms,neck, and DH's chest/belly. It doesn't look like poison ivy though! It itches like it and it's spreading. We've been taking Benadryl and using the Benadryl gel topically, but it's not stopping. Our Dr. is closed today, and I'm really worried about LO getting it. I wear a long sleeved shirt whenever I hold him, but he keeps scratching my neck. Anybody have experience with poison-whatever-this-is and keeping LO from getting it? Calamine doesn't help either.
Poison Ivy/Oak/Sumac?!

Oh, and DH's eyes are swelling now. Yuck.

It might be sumac. I had poison oak and it looks like your skin is boiling, its very blotchy and it gets to a point that the infected skin literally falls off. I had to have 2 rounds of steroids to get rid of it. But on the plus side, I can never get oak or ivy again :)
Make sure you see your doctor as quick as possible. Is there another doctor that you can go to just for today?
Jayden Thomas - 5/15/09
Isabella Rose - 9/20/11
I had poison ivy and poison oak many time as a child. I really don't think it's contagious though, so if you caught a rash from your husband maybe it's something different. I mean, when I had the rash no one in my family caught it and I had a very bad case several times. I would go to a different doctor or walk in clinic if you can.
Found this for you:
Is it contagious?
The oil from poison plants can stick to virtually anything. It can dry and remain potent indefinitely. This is why camping trips can produce such horrible cases of poison oak. Anything that your child has touched between his exposure and a thorough shower should be washed in soap and water (preferably hot), hosed down, or soaked in water and alcohol. This includes clothing, shoes, balls, toys, tools, and the towel he used after his shower. After washing the contaminated articles, don't forget to wash your own hands, and anything those articles touched.
Once the oil has been removed, the rash from poison oak or poison ivy is not contagious. Even the oozing blisters are not contagious, although they look like they should be. Because new blisters can keep appearing over the course of a week, people assume that touching the rash causes it to spread, or that the ooze itself is responsible for the spreading. The fluid that fills the blisters is one's own serum, not the poisonous oil. The skin only breaks out where it actually is exposed to the urushiol. The sensitivity of the skin, and the amount of oil, determine the speed of the eruption. Places where the oil is most concentrated, or the skin the most vulnerable, break out first, followed days later by places where there was only a little oil, or the skin is a more effective barrier. Woe to those with eczema!
As long as the oil is no longer present, scratching does not make the rash spread. Scratching does make the already intense itching even more unbearable and can cause the rash to get infected.
Put your hat on.�
Ok, so it turns out that it was poison sumac:) DH and I were both covered. We wound up going to a Minute Clinic at a CVS because we were in northern VA visiting my family. We got a prescription for Prednisone which works great! I was freaked out because I'm still BF, so I called and asked my lactation consultant. She said it was fine to take as long as I waited 4 hours after taking it to BF again. I was still freaked out about steroids in my little baby, so I would feed him at 7pm, then take the pills and pump at 11pm. Then gave LO formula for the MOTN feeding. So we were going close to 12 hours before he nursed again, which made me feel better. Except the formula gave him a wicked diaper rash:(
Anyway, the sumac is almost gone now, and I don't let DH touch me until he showers:) Learned the hard way.

I'm using jQuery to get a string from a search field and hide items that don't match. It loops through a list of divs and uses $(this).fadeOut(); to hide those elements.
This works very well, but I would like to add further searches within that search. I've added an extra search field, but of course it doesn't inherit the fade outs from the previous search and it starts again from the beginning.
I need a way to specify to the searches to only search visible elements of the list. This needs to work in reverse order as users might enter in the the second search field, then the first.
Here's a JSFiddle of my code illustrating the problem
And a code snippet of one search function
$("#filter").keyup(function () {
var filter = $(this).val(),
count = 0;
$(".records2 div").each(function () {
// If the list item does not contain the text phrase fade it out
if ($(this).text().search(new RegExp(filter, "i")) < 0) {
// Show the list item if the phrase matches and increase the count by 1
} else {

Have traveled back to WI for 23 years to see A Christmas Carol at the Pabst. Best production ever. We love it!
Beautiful old theater in Milwaukee now used for concerts and plays. Take time to just look around. A treasure in Milwaukee that has been well maintained. Seats can be a little tight - opt for aisle seating if possible.
We saw the CHRISTMAS CAROL at the Pabst on Dec1. This has been a family tradtion from my husbands childhood that we continued on with our child. This year we took my mother in law back with us and it was all that she remembered! The theater is beautiful and the history of the building is remarkable. If you are ever in Milwaukee make this a MUST SEE.
What an amazing place to catch a show! The facility is breath taking! I look forward to the Christmas Carol there every year. I love this place!
Whether you're there for a show whatever, the Pabst Theater is not one to be missed. Old school charm! Also, you can take a tour of the theater after hours and see back stage - check it out!

December 1, 2015
Many parts of the Roan Plateau have for years been inhabited strictly by wildlife, but with energy production increasing it's causing concern at the state and Federal levels.
On Tuesday, Governor Bill Ritter and Senator Ken Salazar took in the views of the Roan and its areas of production by air.
The tour comes on the heels of a request to the Bureau of Land Management by the Governor's office for an additional 120 days to review the Roan Plateau plan for oil and gas drilling.
The request was denied by the Department of the Interior and with production pads going in at an alarming rate across the Western Slope, the law makers are saying consider the next 25 to 50 years.
"Think of moving from 5,000 wells now to 60,000 in that short time frame. It's important we ask the question, what do we want Western Colorado to look like?" Senator Salazar said.
Governor Ritter is exploring other options to not halt, but slow development on the Roan.

When fitting for a standard sleeve, we are told to measure level at the bicep circumference, add ease, and mark that line as the bottom width of the sleeve cap. Where do you measure for a cap sleeve? What defines the sleeve size/width? -- Edited on 8/21/12 2:28 PM --
------Know, first, who you are; and then adorn yourself accordingly. ~Epictetus
Wrap a strip of paper around your arm horizontally so the top edge is touching your armpit on the inside, then measure the distance between the top edge of the strip and the shoulder point on outside of your arm. This will give you a sleeve head height. -- Edited on 8/21/12 5:48 PM --

1. Brain Damaged Eggmen - They gave everyone the chills with their Beatles/Floyd
covers. Most special when they went into "Hey Jude" and brought a
bunch of people on stage to join in. It was one of those very special moments
that felt just oh so good!
2. Wholy CRAPs - There was a bunch of us on the one craps table on board, the
table was HOT, we had it going for over four hours. It was insane and a lot of
3. The Mass Wedding - This was really cool. On the first day at sea we held
a Mass Wedding for all those who wanted to get married on board Jam Cruise.
It wasn't an official wedding, but none the less it was great. Over ten couples
got married by Toast and the Father of the ship. Talk about good energy! Certainly
a highlight for many.

Matt Butler (Everyone
1. During the first Everyone Orchestra performance Michael Travis coaxed Rodney
Holmes to finish the EO set on the kit and mid set they switched the kit from
a lefty kit to a righty kit, much to the sound person's chagrin. Then the raffle
winner guest conductor got ready to start and Rodney busted into a 5/4 groove.
Burton, the guest conductor's jaw dropped. The 5/4 was too much! It all worked
out though...
2. 5 a.m. jam room on Tuesday night with Reggie Watts, Steve Kimock and the rest
of us. Um, I've never heard anything quite like this before. I think Reggie
had the biggest smile of all.
3. Late night Galactic on the Pool deck on the last night. The wind was swirling
the smoke from the smoke machine, the air was warm and misty - and Stanton was
hitting the FUCK out of his drums. This moment embodied the surrealness and beauty
of the whole jam cruise experience for me.

Do Economists Play Well with Others? Experimental Evidence on the Relationship between Economics Education and Pro-Social Behavior
McCannon, Bryan C., American Economist
Does an economics education affect a person's behavior outside of the classroom? Does it promote wealth-generating behaviors? Are economists and economics students more selfish and less trustworthy and, therefore, less successful in social settings? Students and educators in economics should be concerned about the impact of the education and, specifically, the answer to these questions.
Previous research is less than optimistic about the behavior of economics students. Marwell and Ames (1981) compare behavior of experimental subjects who are high school students to decisions made by graduate students in economics. They find that the economists contribute significantly less to public goods, free-riding more. Carter and Irons (1991) conduct experiments of a bargaining game, differentiating decisions made by economics from non-economics students. Economics students are shown to be willing to accept less and to make lower offers. Frank, Gilovich and Regan (1993) report on surveys of academics and Prisoner's Dilemma experiments with students. The proportion of academic economists who report making charitable contributions is less than other fields, and students majoring in economics are less likely to cooperate in the game. Frank and Schulze (2000) conduct a corruption experiment where individuals (an agent) choose how large of a bribe to take for recommending a service provider (to a principal). Economics students are shown to be more willing to take the corrupt bribe. Frey and Meier (2003) provide empirical evidence that economics students contribute less to charities than those in other fields. One study provides results of positive, ethical behaviors. Yezer, Goldfarb and Poppen (1996) conduct a "lost-letter" experiment where addressed, stamped, unsealed envelopes containing money are left in classrooms. Those left in economics classes are shown to be significantly more likely to be returned.
What is unclear about the previous research is whether or not it is in fact the education that is causing these behaviors. Is it really that the coursework is indoctrinating students to behave "like an economist" (rather than just think like one) or is it an artifact of who chooses to study economics?
A few studies have addressed this issue in particular. Carter and Irons (2001), Frank and Schulze (2000), and Frey and Meier (2003) all employ controls for field of study, year in school, and an interaction term as an econometric technique to differentiate selection effects from learning effects. All of these studies suggest that it is the selection effects that matter--those who choose to study economics are different. Little evidence of a learning or indoctrination effect can be found. One shortcoming with this approach is, while it addresses the selection effect by differentiating freshmen from upperclass students, it does not deal with the endogenous decision to study economics for each individual. Also, as students change majors and universities, the cohort of freshman can be a different group from those who are upperclassmen in economics. Finally, it may not necessarily be the decision to major in economics which is the primary determinant of behavior, but may instead be proxying for the true driving force of these behaviors. For example, Frey and Meier (2003) extend their analysis by collecting background information on a subset of the students in their data set. Once some of the background information, such as family income levels, is controlled for, the effect of selecting an economics major is reversed. Thus, additional work is needed to identify individual-level differences that drive both the decision to study economics and the behaviors observed in economic environments.
The Trust Game (Berg, Dickhaut and McCabe 1995) is well-suited to address this question. In it one player is given an endowment (here $5) and selects how much to keep for oneself and how much to give to another player. …

A special Thank You to Army ROTC for sponsoring the Aviation Career Education (ACE) Academy in Houston which took place July 7 – 11!
'' Nikki The Airline Pilot''
blazing trails at the FAA FSDO!
Tonika Johnson became the first black female to graduate from Central Missouri State University with a B.S. degree in Aviation Technology in 1994. A native of Springfield, Illinois, she became interested in aviation an early age. Her first flying lesson was during her senior year as a student at Southeast High School. A youth aviation program provided the means by which she completed her first solo flight. While i n college, each summer she participate in internships with various airlines and the Illinois Department of Transportation. She notes: "The internships allowed me to promote aviation education while the employers became sponsors." Upon graduation, she became a flight instructor.
While gaining experience, she was also employed by the Houston Airport Management System and handled issues such as aircraft emergencies.
Throughout her career Tonika has persevered, becoming US Airways Express' first black female jet captain. She has obtained pilot licenses outside of the United States of America and took on the historic challenge of flying as a jet captain in Asia and Africa. She has been at the helm of corporate and airline passenger jets throughout the Africa, Asia, and the United States-adding Canada and the Caribbean to her routes and is certificated in various jets.
Having flown celebrities in the past, Tonika went on to become business mogul, Ervin "Magic" Johnson's private jet captain. In her own words: I had a desire to see the world and make an impact by assisting where possible. It inspired me to work as a jet captain in other countries such as India. Not only did Tonika cut her own path in the history books, but she created a means towards providing a positive mindset for youngsters to make their way into the annals of history.
When she is not working, she volunteers in many communities, promoting aviation, participating in reading programs with her book "Nikki, The Airline Pilot", as well as, being commissioned to provide instruction in a class-room environment.
Today, Tonika has transitioned and serves the aviation community in a different capacity. She is employed by the Federal Aviation Administration and provides oversight and surveillance in General Aviation as a Principal Operations Inspector. She has recently been promoted to serve in the same capacity for part 121 air carrier, Silver Airways, a feeder service for Jet Blue, American, US Air, and United.

Tom Brady on Aaron Hernandez: 'I've moved on'
|07.23.13 at 3:30 pm ET
In his first public comments regarding former teammate Aaron Hernandez, quarterback Tom Brady said Tuesday that he's "moved on" from the situation, and adds that he's looking forward to the 2013 season.
'I've seen a lot of things over 13 years, and what I have learned is that mental toughness and putting aside personal agendas for what's in the best interest of the team matters most,' Brady told Peter King of SI.com. 'My job is to play quarterback, and I'm going to do that the best way I know how, because I owe that to my teammates regardless of who is out there on the field with me.
'I have moved on. I'm focusing on the great teammates I have who are committed to helping us win games. The only thing I care about is winning. Nothing is going to ever get in the way of that goal. I'm just excited to report to camp and see what we can accomplish as a team. The fate of our season will be determined by the players in our locker room'nothing else.'

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) _ The latest government snapshot of the Kansas winter wheat crop looks mostly good as cold weather sets in across the state.
The National Agricultural Statistics Service reported Monday that 7 percent of the wheat was in excellent condition. Fifty-six percent was in good condition and 33 percent was rated fair, with just 4 percent in poor to very poor shape.
The agency says a hard freeze helped dry crops that are still in the field before a wintry storm halted harvesting.
The update says 98 percent of the corn crop, about 97 percent of the sorghum and 95 percent of the soybeans have been cut. Sunflower harvest is 94 percent complete.

1. Field Of The Invention
The present invention relates in general to signalling devices and in particular to a system for summoning service personnel to a particular location in a restaurant or similar facility and for monitoring their response time.
Many modern restaurants and similar facilities are designed to provide various unique and pleasant surroundings for their customers who dine or are otherwise attended to. Many times, such facilities are very large and have complex layouts of tables or booths. Also, various decorative dividers and other decorative objects may be placed throughout the facility to enhance the privacy and enjoyment of the customers. However, regardless of the amount and quality of the decorations and other advantageous features, it is essential for the continued success of the facility that the service personnel who attend to the various needs of the customers do so in a rapid and efficient fashion. Failure to so respond results in excessively long waiting periods for the customers, thereby causing dissatisfaction. Thus, there is a need for a system which provides a means for a customer in such a facility to summon service personnel when desired and further which provides a means for the facility to monitor and evaluate the performance of its service personnel in responding to its customers.
2. Description Of The Prior Art
U.S. Pat. No. 3,821,707 to Peters discloses a wireless waitress call system for a restaurant, cocktail lounge, or similar facility. A central transmitter is activated by the operation of any one of a plurality of switches, a switch being located at each one of a plurality of tables or booths at the facility. The operation of any one of the switches causes the transmitter to transmit a signal of a particular distinctive frequency corresponding to the individual table at which the switch was operated. A receiver is mounted on a tray carried by the waitress. The receiver responds to the signals transmitted by the transmitter. The receiver is coupled to a plurality of indicating lights mounted on the tray, each relating to a different table or booth. Selective means are included in the receiver circuit such that, when a particular switch at a particular table or booth is operated, a corresponding light on the tray of the waitress is energized so as to inform the waitress that service is desired at the designated table or booth.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,222,111 to Sloan et al. discloses a method and apparatus for monitoring the status of tables in a restaurant. A processor unit is coupled by means of a plurality of serial data busses to a host unit and also to a plurality of service units. The host unit includes a plurality of push buttons which correspond respectively to tables within a particular service area of the restaurant. The processor unit computes and stores the status of each table in the restaurant. The processor also periodically computes and transmits display information representative of the updated status of the tables to the host unit and to the service unit. The status of a particular table is updated by depressing a corresponding table button of either the host station or the respective service station. The processor unit computes the updated status information and stores the updated table status in a memory of the processor unit. Running totals for each table can be stored in the processor unit and may be displayed after each meal, day, week, or month.
Other similar systems are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 1,796,668 to Sarfaty, 3,233,217 to Bost, Jr., 3,304,416 to Wolf, 3,310,797 to Auger, and 4,225,852 to Waters et al.
The present invention relates to an improved system for summoning service personnel to a particular location in a restaurant or similar facility and for monitoring their response time. The facility includes a plurality of tables at which customers are located. Each table includes an individual transmitter which is selectively activated by means of a switch at the table. The switch is operated by a customer at the table when service is required. When activated, each transmitter generates a signal which is unique to its corresponding table. A central station is provided which includes a display panel having individual sections designated therein relating to each of the tables. Each individual section includes a visual indicator, an audible annunciator, and a digital timer. A plurality of receivers are provided within the central station. Each of the receivers corresponds to an individual one of the transmitters at the tables. When a table transmitter is activated by a customer desiring service, the corresponding receiver at the central station activates the visual indicator of the appropriate individual section to alert the service personnel that service is required at that table. At the same time, the receiver also resets the digital timer to zero and causes the timer to count upwardly at a rate of one count per second. If the count of the timer reaches a first predetermined amount, indicating that the customer has waited too long for response by the service personnel, the audible annunciator is then activated to alert the service personnel of the unsatisfactory response to the customer's signal. When the service personnel does responds to the customer's signal at the table, the table transmitter is de-activated, thus de-activating the visual indicator, the audible annunciator, and the digital timer. The number contained in the timer at that time represents the total response time of the service personnel to the customer's signal. A microprocessor is connected to each of the visual indicators, audible annunciators, and digital timers for storing the data generated thereby and for generating a historical record of the performance of the service personnel for each table in the facility.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved system for summoning service personnel to a particular location in a restaurant or similar facility and for monitoring their response time.
It is another object of the present invention to provide such a summoning system which is economical and reliable in construction and operation.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment, when read in light of the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a top plan view schematically illustrating a portion of a restaurant or similar facility having a plurality of tables located therein at which customers may be located.
FIG. 2 is an elevational view schematically illustrating portion of a central station, including a plurality of individual sections relating to each of the tables illustrated in FIG. 1, adapted for use in the facility illustrated in FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a transmitter means adapted for use at each of the tables illustrated in FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a receiver means adapted for use with the central station illustrated in FIG. 2.
Referring now to FIG. 1, there is illustrated a portion of a restaurant, indicated generally at 10, or similar facility. The restaurant 10 includes a combined entrance/exit 11 near which a cashier's table 12 or other similar stand may be located. Within the restaurant 10, a plurality of tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 are located. Frequently, a restaurant identifies each of the tables therein by a number for simplicity, and the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 are so designated as tables 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Customers may be seated at each of the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 to receive service from the service personnel of the restaurant 10. Although the present invention will be described and illustrated in the context of a restaurant 10 having only four tables, it will be appreciated that the present invention can be utilized in a facility 10 having virtually any number of tables or other locations therein at which service may be requested.
Each of the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 is provided with an individual transmitter means, indicated generally at 10-1A, 10-2A, 10-3A, and 10-4A, respectively. The structure of one of the transmitter means 10-1A is illustrated in FIG. 3 and is representative of each of the other transmitter means 10-2A, 10-3A, and 10-4A. As shown in FIG. 3, the transmitter means 10-1A includes a table switch 15 connected to a transmitter 16 having an antenna 17. The table switch 15 can be any type of commonly available mechanical or electrical switch which is operable by a customer seated at the table 10-1 when service is desired. When the table switch 15 is so operated, the transmitter 16 is activated to generate and radiate an electromagnetic signal from the antenna 17. The transmitter 16 and antenna 17 are conventional in the art. The signal generated by the transmitter 16 is predetermined to be unique to the individual table 10-1 at which it is located. The signal can be made unique in any one of several known fashions. For example, the signals generated from the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 can differ from one another in frequency. Alternatively, the signals may be digitized and arranged to include different identifying codes. Other similar types of unique signals may also be generated. All that is required is that each signal be capable of distinguishing the individual table from which it was generated from the other tables.
A central station, indicated generally at 20, is provided to receive the signals generated by the various transmitter means 10-1A, 10-2A, 10-3A, and 10-4A. As shown in FIG. 1, the central station 20 may be located near the cashier's table 12 or other location where the service personnel of the restaurant 10 can see it frequently and conveniently. FIG. 2 illustrates only that portion of the central station 20 which corresponds to the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 illustrated in FIG. 1. For each of the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4, an individual section 20-1, 20-2, 20-3, and 20-4, respectively, is provided at the central station 20. As with the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 described above, the individual sections 20-1, 20-2, 20-3, and 20-4 may be designated by the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively, for simplicity. Each of the individual sections, such as the individual section 20-1, includes a visual indicator 20-1A, an audible annunciator 20-1B, and a digital timer 20-1C. As will be explained in greater detail below, the visual indicator 20-1A, the audible annunciator 20-1B, and the digital timer 20-1C are provided to alert the service personnel of the restaurant 10 that service is requested by one of the customers at a particular table and to measure their response time.
Referring now to FIG. 4, a receiver means, indicated generally at 30, is illustrated which is adapted for use with the central station 20 of FIG. 2 or FIG. 1. The receiver means 30 includes an antenna 31 which is provided to receive all of the signals generated by the various transmitter means, such as the transmitter means 10-1A, described above. The antenna 31 is connected to a plurality of receivers, such as are indicated at 32-1, 32-2, etc. Each of the receivers 32-1, 32-2, etc., is designed to receive only the unique signal corresponding to a particular individual table and transmitter means. For example, the receiver 32-1 can be designed to receive only the unique signal generated by the transmitter means 10-1A located at the table 10-1. All other signals received by the antenna 31 are ignored by the receiver 32-1. When the unique signal generated from the table 10-1 is received, the receiver 32-1 generates a signal to activate the visual indicator 20-1A of the corresponding individual section 20-1 of the central station 20 so as to alert the service personnel, as described above. The visual indicator 20-1A provides a first indication to the service personnel that a customer has requested service. At the same time, the receiver 32-1 also generates a signal to the digital counter 20-1C, resetting the counter 20-1C to zero. The timer 20-1C then automatically counts upwardly from zero at a rate of one count per second so long as it remains activated by the receiver 32-1. The structure of the digital timer 20-1C is conventional in the art.
At any given moment, the number contained in and displayed by the digital timer 20-1C represents the amount of time (in seconds) which has elapsed since the customer's request for service was first made. The timer 20-1C is connected to the audible annunciator 20-1B such that the annunciator 20-1B is activated when a predetermined count is reached by the timer 20-1C. This predetermined count represents an amount of time which is considered by the restaurant 10 to be unduly long in responding to the customer's request. The audible annunciator 20-1B provides a second indication that a customer has requested service. Alternatively, the visual indicator 20-1A and the audible annunicator 20-1B may be simultaneously activated by the receiver 32-1 to generate the first indication. In either event, the combined activation of the visual indicator 20-1A and the audible annunciator 20-1B will quickly alert the service personnel that immediate attention is required at the particular table. The second receiver 32-2, as well as the other receivers not illustrated, are all identical in structure and operation to the first receiver 32-1.
When one of the service personnel of the restaurant 10 does respond to the customer's request, he or she operates the table switch 15 so as to de-activate the transmitter 16. Such de-activation of the transmitter 16 interrupts the generation of the unique signal therefrom and, consequently, causes the corresponding receiver 32-1 to de-activate the visual indicator 20-1A, the audible annunciator 20-1B, and the digital timer 20-1C. The number contained in and displayed by the digital timer 20-1C at that time, representing the total response time, is stored therein until the next time a customer at the table 10-1 activates the transmitter 10-1A as described above, indicating another request. The above-described operations are repeated for each such request at each of the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 in the restaurant 10.
A microprocessor 33 or other control means is connected to the visual indicator 20-1A, the audible annunciator 20-1B, and the digital timer 20-1C so as to receive information therefrom. The microprocessor 33 is conventional in the art and is adapted to sequentially interrogate the visual indicator 20-1A, the audible annunciator 20-1B, and the digital timer 20-1C in order to determine the status of the customer's requests at predetermined intervals. For example, the microprocessor 33 can first determine whether the visual indicator 20-1A has been activated by the receiver 32-1, indicating that a request has been made by a customer at the table 10-1. Next, the microprocessor 33 can determine whether the audible annunciator 20-1B has been activated by the digital timer 20-1C, indicating that an unduly long period of time has elapsed without a response to the customer's request. Lastly, the microprocessor 33 can determine the value of the number contained in the digital timer 20-1C so as to ascertain the current length of response time. The microprocessor 33 can be provided with a conventional memory device 34 for storing the data which it has received from the individual section 20-1. The information gathering process can be repeated as necessary with the individual section 20-1, as well as the other individual sections 20-2, 20-3, and 20-4, to continuously collect and update information from each of the tables 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, and 10-4 as to the status of the response time of the service personnel. One or more input/output devices 35 can be connected to the microprocessor 33 to permit an operator to communicate therewith in a conventional fashion.
The microprocessor 33 can be programmed to generate a history of the performance of the service personnel of the restaurant 10 in responding to the requests of the customers therein. For example, the average waiting time between a customer's request and a response by the service personnel can be calculated for each table or group of tables. Since each table is normally attended to by a single service person, a summary of the performance of that person can be generated over a period of time. Also, the number of times each of the audible annunciators was activated can be determined to reveal unsatisfactory performance. Many other types of information can be obtained with the data generated by the system. The computer program required to operate the microprocessor 33 in order to obtain such information is well within the scope of a person having ordinary skill in that field of art and, therefore, forms no part of the present invention.
In accordance with the provisions of the patent statutes, the principle and mode of operation of the present invention have been explained and illustrated in its preferred embodiment. However, it must be understood that the present invention can be practiced otherwise than as specifically explained and illustrated without departing from its spirit or scope.
