I have an application for android phones to collect and transmit livestock GPS position data to a server... At the moment I transmit the position once/10min. The battery lives for 1 day, thanks to switching to airplane mode on between connections.
To extend the battery life, I've increased the period between GPRS connections as much as data latency is acceptable (GPRS low coverage, lacks and animals movement makes it hard).
The user needs 15 days of battery life, and I would like to reach it with software.
In order to collect programatically the battery usage, I've read about the battery level, but does anyone know how to monitor the GPS and the GPRS modem power consumption precisely?
At least, anyone knows how to get programatically the Settings > Device > Battery usage information?

A doddering professor of logic asked his class a question."If Philadelphia is 100 miles from New York, and Chicago is 1,000 miles from Philadelphia, and the Moon is 239,000 miles from Earth, how old am I?"A student in the back of the class raised his hand. "Professor, you're 70," he answered."You're absolutely correct," the professor said, "but how did you arrive at the answer so quickly?""Easy," said the student. "I have a brother who's 35, and he's half as nuts as you are."

VIA Launches VIPRO Touch-Screen Panel PC
VIA Launches VIPRO Touch-Screen Panel PC
Affordable, intelligent and durable, the ultra thin VIA VIPRO VP7710 supports dual displays for today's sophisticated industrial and commercial applications
Taipei, Taiwan, November 18 2008 - VIA Technologies, Inc, a leading innovator of power efficient x86 processor platforms, today announced the VIA VIPRO VP7710 touch screen panel PC, a full featured, entirely fanless panel PC suitable for intelligent display applications in demanding environments.

The touch screen itself conforms to IP65 standards, making it resistant to both water and dust. Installation via wall, table, panel or VESA mounting options means the ultra thin VIA VIPRO can be installed easily in a variety of positions where its wider than normal viewing angle makes it visible to all.

It also supports an additional independently configured display through a VGA port for dual-display applications.
The VIA VIPRO has a 10.4" TFT display with a wide viewing angle and light transmission of 82.5%. Its IP65 touch panel is water and dust resistant while the chassis is shock resistant up to 50G and can handle vibrations of up to 5G.

Obama crashes kids` `state dinner` at White House
Washington: Healthy lunch recipes like "Kickin, Colourful, Bell Peppers" and "Lentil Spinach Soup and Mint Chutney" won five Indian-American kids invitations to kids` "state dinner" at the White House that President Barack Obama crashed.
"Usually, at a state dinner, I get invited, so I don`t know what happened on this one," the president joked as he went around to each table to congratulate the kids at Tuesday`s event.
"I hear the food is pretty good," said Obama as he made a surprise appearance at the event hosted by the first lady to welcome the winners of the second annual Healthy Lunchtime Challenge.
The five Indian-American kids were among the 54 winners - one from from each of the 50 states, plus three territories and the national capital - from more than 1,300 entries.
"This is what it`s like to be a part of an official state dinner," Michelle Obama told the children and their parents gathered in the East Room. "We mirrored it exactly to what people experience when we host world leaders here."
The kids, ranging in age from 8 to 12, even got to experience an arrival ceremony in which they were officially announced as they made their way through the booksellers` entrance of the White House.
The Healthy Lunchtime Challenge is a recipe contest for kids across the country, launched in 2012 by Epicurious-a website about food-to promote healthy eating for children in the US.
The winning Indian kids and their recipes were: Shefali Singh, 12, (Falmouth, Massachusetts) - "Shefali`s Scrumptious Spring Rolls"; Vijay Dey, 12, (Chapel Hill, North Carolina) - "Spring Rolls"; Anisha Patel, 11, (Blacklick, Ohio) - "Kickin, Colourful, Bell Peppers stuffed with Quinoa";
Ganesh Selvakumar, 9, (Broomall, Pennsylvania) - "Lentil Spinach Soup and Mint Chutney" and Devanshi Udeshi, 12, (Sugar Land, Texas) - "Slam Dunk Veggie Burger".
After lunch, recipe winners were treated to a performance by 15-year-old singer Rachel Crow before getting a tour of the White House kitchen garden.

Letter: Madrona development approval is troubling to this reader
Recently a letter was printed in this space by a Brea resident elated at the approval of the controversial Madrona development in Carbon Canyon. His arguments are just plain wrong. Interestingly, what he didn't say is more important than what he did say.
First of all, the letter writer does not speak for Olinda Village. When a neighborhood petition to the council circulated flagging concerns about Madrona traffic, 96percent of the residents signed expressing opposition.
Did he say the Madrona project passed the Planning Commission by one vote, and one of those votes is now working for the developer? It may be legal, but it seriously erodes voters' confidence in the system.
What the author didn't say is that the development is grandfathered and could never be built under today's regulations.
Also, it sits in a "Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone," which has burned four times in just 30 years. It could not exist without a huge irrigated fire-buffer zone causing each new house to use five times the water of the average Brea house during a serious drought. The fire escape road does not meet current codes, yet the city allowed it.
He also did not say that he is a supporter of ultra pro-development Councilman Ron Garcia, and is using this as an attempt to smear Councilman Marty Simonoff.
Simonoff was the only one who wanted to discuss public safety and the three fatal flaws noted in the EIR. Simonoff was the only council member looking out for residents while the rest sided with a bankrupt Idaho insurance company, which is fronting the troubled development. Rather than face the unsolvable problems noted in the EIR, Mayor Brett Murdock and the other three council members chased the dollar at the expense of the safety of Brea residents.
Hills for Everyone, (hillsforeveryone.org), the nonprofit group behind the founding of Chino Hills State Park, is fighting back with a July 19 fundraiser to support a lawsuit.
I believe the council violated the letter and spirit of the law, and certainly the oft-stated values of Brea residents who want our hillside backdrop protected. In approving the project, the council had to make the following finding: "Oak and walnut woodlands are not habitat for fish and wildlife." Ask a fifth grader if this is right. Ask a kindergartner if it is OK to lie.
November is coming. Developer contributions can buy slick brochures but not votes. Brea elections are won and lost often by a handful of votes. People watch and support those who have their back.

Fichte's Theory of Subjectivity / Edition 1by Frederick Neuhouser
Pub. Date: 10/28/1990
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
This is the first book in English to elucidate the central issues in the work of Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762–1814), a figure crucial to the movement of philosophy from Kant to German idealism. The book explains Fichte's notion of subjectivity and how his particular view developed out of Kant's accounts of theoretical and practical reason. Fichte argued that the subject has a self-positing structure which distinguishes it from a thing or an object. Thus, the subject must be understood as an activity rather than a thing and is self-constituting in a way that an object is not. In the final chapter, Professor Neuhouser considers how this doctrine of the self-positing subject enables us to understand the possibility of the self's autonomy, or self-determination.

Sophos experts Chester Wisniewski and Paul Ducklin
I enjoy listening to their podcast each week and one of the topics that they talked about is what every manufacturer seems to be talking about which is the Internet of Things (IoT), Apple and the FBI and the Jury Duty Scam that is going around. You can listen to it here: Sophos Security Chet Chat
The US Court Service has warned about the a new scam that is calling people to tell them that they didn't follow through on Federal Jury Duty and are able to send you to a website that looks like it might be real, they are spoofing local phone numbers and it is absolutely not true. The Us Court System says that they don't make these calls and if you ever receive a call like this it is something that you should just ignore/hang up on. These can be scary and they can sound real. But don't be taken in.
Here is a great article that goes into more depth on this scam

Do not buy from "eglobal digital store" - they will not tell you this on the product page next to the price but the prices you see are not final.
Vat and customs duty will be added because they ship their products from Hong Kong.
Also, you will not have local warranty.
I bought a phone from them for an advertised price of £302 - I ended up paying another £72.

Reading signal processing circuit in optical information reproducing apparatus
Image Number 3 for
United States Patent #5164933
In this invention, a reading signal detected by a photodetector is input into two differentiating circuits of different differential constants. The first differentiating circuit differentiates the reading signal with the differential constant larger than that of, for example, the second differentiating circuit and lowers the level of the noise component present as mixed in the reading signal. The first comparing circuit removes the noise component, for example, below the threshold value. The second differentiating circuit differentiates the reading signal with the differential constant converting the peak point of the reading signal, for example, of the above mentioned photodetector to a zero crossing point. The second comparing circuit compares the differential signal of the above mentioned differentiating circuit with the threshold value set, for example, on the zero level and makes the output signal rise, for example, in the center position of an information pit. A bivalued signal logical circuit obtains a bivalued signal made by bivaluing the reading signal from the respective output signals of the first and second comparing circuits.

Kings take loss to Coyotes in stride
LOS ANGELES – Before anyone got any ideas that the Kings were just going to sweep their way to the Stanley Cup, Darryl Sutter threw out this admonition as he closed his news conference after Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.
"Did we think, as not a home-ice team, we weren't ever going to lose a game? No. It's that simple," the Kings coach said after Phoenix's 2-0 victory Sunday. "You're supposed to play 28 games, not 12 or 13, four or five. That's what it is, right?"
The Kings lost for just the second time in the postseason, showing only flashes of the forechecking pressure that wore down Vancouver and St. Louis in the first two rounds and Phoenix in the first three games of this series.
For once, the Coyotes handled the pressure and took it to the Kings instead of chasing them and looking overmatched doing so. Now they have one foot in the door in forcing a Game 5 on Tuesday at Phoenix.
"They were playing desperate," Kings right wing Trevor Lewis said. "They're playing for their season here. We expected that. We've got to go back to Phoenix and play better."
All 36 of the Kings' shots were turned away by goalie Mike Smith. They also lost the special teams battle with the penalty-killing unit allowing its first goal in 31 chances and an ice-cold power play that failed in its six chances.
Phoenix coach Dave Tippett said his team concluded after its meeting Saturday night that "we'd been through a lot of battles together. We might as well continue battling for a while."
"We put too much work in to let this slip away," Tippett added. "It's time to see if we can work back a little bit. We put that work in tonight and we got ourselves one, and now we're going to strive to do that and see if we can up that for two."
Kings forward Dustin Penner insisted that the Kings had as much focus in this loss as they had in all their victories.
"I wasn't thinking about this is the Western Conference finals," Penner said. "I was thinking we're up 3-0, we're at home, we don't want to go back on the road and try and close it in their building."
"We focused all our energy on tonight. We've played a certain way and focused in a certain way to get to this point, which was simplifying in and not looking too far ahead. We're going to take the same attitude we've had all playoffs into next game."

Catholic Easter "Little Books"
Posted in the Saginaw Forum

After Easter mass this year I recieved what is called "the little white book' which is a series of Easter reflections for the Easter season. The "little books" are a series of books, six minute meditations that arrive during advent, lent and easter each year. In the last several books such as these I have read thourgh I have been concerned with what I felt to be non-Catholic and non-doctrinal ideas by the writer or writers of this book. It at least a rather reductionist viewpoint of the Holy Scriptures and symptomatic of poor cathechesis.
The "little books" for those who do not know are published by the diocese of Saginaw in Michigan. Looking up more information I learned that the Diocese of Saginaw was that which was under the Bishop Kenneth Untener, a noted "liberal" or "left wing" Catholic Bishop. I wrote a letter to my Bishop at my diocese and expressed my concerns about these books. Bishop Untener was noted for taking stands not in line with the Catholic Church and Catholic teaching on more than one occasion, most notably his alarming views regarding birth control and abortion, gay rights and the ordination of women priests. He also was also involved in what were apparently very controversial activities regarding human sexuality at the seminary where he taught when he was a priest. The "little books" are based upon the writings of Bishop Kenneth "Ken" Untener and the books are dedicated to him.
I hope that more people will take a loook at these little books. As I said, they are being distributed at the churches and I think that their content in somewhat concerning, if not alarming.
What is alarming in my opinion, is that anything would be based upon the writings of such a controversial figure as that of Bishop Kenneth Untener,(close friend of Bishop Thomas Gumbleton, another very controversial figure that once lectured that homosexuality was an acceptable lifestyle!) Bishop Untener did not certainly at all times embody the beliefs of the Catholic Church and was perhaps very emblematic of so much that is wrong in the Catholic Church in these United States today. Bishop Untener would appear to have often flagrantly disregarded the authority of the Holy See of Rome embracing or condoning behaviors that were at odds with Catholic teaching.
Example... April 5th the writer talks about the Gospel of John in which "there is the lengthy story of man born blind who gradually able to see Jesus through the eyes of faith" as if Jesus' miracle of restoring the man's sight did not occur. Are we to take the restored sight of the man as merely a story that is a symbol for something? In another 'reflection' the writer speaks of Jesus walking on the water in John 6:16-21 as a "reassuring lesson" and claiming that the "point of the 'story' is simply the unexpected appearance of the Lord- there is no miracle other than this." John 6:16-21 is not a parable, nor simply a story, it is an account. In the Gospel it says, "It is this disciple who testifies to these things and has written them, and we know that his testimony is true."

I have read the book myself and couldn't disagree with you more.

I have read the books and I do disagree with you more. They are not the work of Catholics. They are new age feel good pseudo-chistianity, based upon the writings of the rogue Bishop, too little on the Gospel and too long on his philosophical meanderings and left wing politicism.

I'm with Mary. I personally haven't experienced anything horribly wrong with these books. In fact, I find it a nice little way to reflect throughout the Easter, Lenten, or Advent season... a little scripture to think about, a little bit of fun history , and a way to help in a routine of prayer. I don't see how something that brings about prayer can be so bad.

I met Bishop Untener. I knew him and I spoke with him. He lead in Saginaw, Michigan. I can tell you I liked him better than the one who took his place. The Late Bishop Untener would not expect the Catholic church to provide a expensive home so he could entertain people. He lived where people would allow a welcome to him. That man was a very good and faithful servant of GOD. He took advangtage of no one! He spoke the truth and as a catholic I was allowed to speak my mind in front of him without reservation. He served the poor helping the local mission houses and worked at local hospitals and well quite frankly I being a Catholic have never in my 50 years met a man who really to me was a better Catholic than most! At least he wasn't a hypocrit!
Problem is here...You think because he is liberal or left wing that he condones such things? Hello! Most "Church going Catholics" are hypocrits themselves they preach one thing and turn around and do the other! I would stand next to 100,000,000,000 "Bishop Entener's" in a heart beat. Sometimes I didn't agree with some things that he implemented but I knew that I could take it right to his face and he would take the time to listen, talk and explain. Most priest now days don't even care~! They have a house, car, job and go to school for other degrees. Go golfing at our expense and well I am pretty tired of working 8 hours 5 plus days a week and giving my money to the church so they can show me how NON Catholic they can be. Now I can see how people like you run the so called church. Guess what... In a few years when most younger kids see it too.. There won't be a Catholic church! and if there is.. They will be miles and miles apart. Sorry you hit a nerve Augustine! But you obviously didn't know the man!

This is a year-old discussion that surfaced when i ordered my 2010 Little Books but I was miffed enough to respond. I work in a Catholic ministry in a very non-catholic area/environment. I have used the Little Books very effectively for years with both Roman Catholics and various Protestant groups. As to them being non-Catholic...have you read the mission statement of the USCCB? It's primary goal is evangelization and I've found that these simple and straightforward books have profound effects on catalyzing dialog with those not yet "Catholic christians"...or do you think latin might be more helpful? Also when did strictly literal translation of scripture become the Catholic way to further revelation? 3 Cheers and blessings on the Diocese of Saginaw!!

A method for the quantitative determination of one or more chemical parameters of a sample medium employs a fluorescent agent which is not responsive to the parameter to be determined and which has an excitation spectrum and an emission spectrum, and a closely adjacent chromogenic agent which responds to the parameter of the sample medium to be determined by a change in its absorption spectrum the emission spectrum of the fluorescent agent at least partically overlapping the absorption spectrum of the chromogenic agent. The absorption maximum of chromogenic agent is shifted in accordance with the parameter to be determined, causing a reduction of fluorescence decay time t in the fluorescent agent, thereby enabling quantitative determination of the chemical parameter with improved long-term stability and infrequent calibrations.
We claim:
1. A method for the quantitative determination of at least one chemical parameter of a sample medium, comprising the steps of:
(a) providing a fluorescent substance with an excitation spectrum and an emission spectrum and which displays a fluorescent decay time (t), said fluorescent substance being non-responsive to said chemical parameter to be determined;
(b) providing a chromogenic substance having an absorption maximum which can be shifted in wavelength in accordance with said chemical parameter to be determined;
(c) immobilizing said fluorescent and chromogenic substances in close vicinity to each other on a substrate so that the emission spectrum of said fluorescent substance at least partially overlaps the absorption spectrum of said chromogenicsubstance, influencing the fluorescence decay time of said fluorescent substance;
(d) contacting said fluorescent and chromogenic substances with a sample medium defining at least one chemical parameter,
(e) exposing said fluorescent substance to excitation radiation, and
(f) measuring a reduction of said fluorescence decay time (t) caused by energy transfer between said chromogenic and said fluorescent substances for the quantitative determination of said chemical parameter.
2. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is 7-diethylaminocoumarin-3-carboxylic acid, said chromogenic substance is methyl orange and said chemical parameter is hydrogen ion concentration.
3. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is 8-aminopyrene-1,3,6-trisulphonate, said chromogenic substance is phenol red, and said chemical parameter is hydrogen ion concentration.
4. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is sulphorhodamine 101, said chromogenic substance is alizarin-complexon, and said chemical parameter is barium ion concentration.
5. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is rhodamine 6G, said chromogenic substance is beryllone, and said chemical parameter is magnesium ion concentration.
6. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is 2,7-dichloro-fluorescein, said chromogenic substance is catechol violet, and said chemical parameter is cadmium ion concentration.
7. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is fluorescein, said chromogenic substance is chrome azurol S, and said chemical parameter is aluminium ion concentration.
8. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is coumarin 7, said chromogenic substance is eriochrome black T, and said chemical parameter is calcium or lead ion concentration.
9. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is coumarin 343, said chromogenic substance is murexide, and said chemical parameter is copper ion concentration.
10. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance is coumarin 334, said chromogenic substance is zincone, and said chemical parameter is zinc ion concentration.
11. A method according to claim 1, wherein said fluorescent substance (donor) and said chromogenic substance (acceptor) are covalently attached to each other.
The present invention relates to a method for the quantitative determination of one or more chemical parameters of a sample medium wherein two substances are used that are closely adjacent to each other, i.e., a first substance in the form of afluorescent agent with an excitation spectrum and an emission spectrum, this first substance not being responsive to the parameter to be determined, and a second substance in the form of an agent whose absorption spectrum is changed by the parameter ofthe sample medium to be determined, the emission spectrum of the fluorescent substance at least partially overlapping the absorption spectrum of the second substance.
Much progress has been achieved in recent years in determining physical or chemical parameters, especially in the measuring of substances contained in a sample medium by means of optical sensors. Such optical sensors (optodes) usually comprisean indicator which is applied to a solid substrate and is in contact with the sample. The change of at least one optical property of the indicator, which is effected by the parameter to be determined, is measured in an optical system comprising a lightsource, optical filters, possibly fiber-optical lightguides, and photodetectors.
There are absorption-optical, reflection-optical and fluorescence-optical sensors. In the variants known so far it is mainly the intensity of fluorescence that is used as a measuring parameter, the concentration [Q] of a substance Q quenchingthe fluorescence of the indicator being determined by the equation:
In the above equation F.sub.o and F stand for the fluorescence intensities of the indicator quenched by Q in the absence or presence of the quencher with a concentration [Q]. K.sub.sv is an indicator-specific constant.
In the above method according to EP-A 214 768 a technique is described for determining specific substances, in which a fluorescent substance (fluorescent agent) and an absorber substance are immobilized on a substrate in close spatial contact. The emission spectrum of the substance fluorescing upon excitation overlaps the absorption spectrum of the absorber substance. Whereas the fluorescent agent does not respond to the substance to be determined, the absorber substance will produce aresponse upon contact with the sample which will cause the degree of overlap of emission and absorption spectrum to vary depending on the concentration of the substance to be determined. The change in fluorescence intensity obtained in this way ismeasured and used as a measure for the parameter to be determined.
The main disadvantages of intensity measurement are that the fluorescence intensity F is affected by fluctuations in the intensity of the excitation light source. Besides, F is dependent on the concentration of the fluorescent substance, whosefading will cause drifts. Finally, photodetectors may vary in sensitivity, which again will affect the measured intensity F.
In those instances in which the analytical variable acts as a dynamic quencher of the fluorescence of an indicator, the change in fluorescence decay time t may be used as a parameter, as according to Stern/Volmer the fluorescence decay time (t)in the presence and the fluorescence decay time (t.sub.o) in the absence of a quencher of the concentration [Q], are related as follows:
Dynamic quenchers are fluorescence quenchers quenching the fluorescence of a molecule by non-radiative inactivation of the excited state of a molecule, as a consequence of a dynamic collision process. This is in contrast to the static quencherwhose effect is based on the fact that it forms a loose, non-fluorescing complex with the fluorescent substance in its ground state. The two quenching mechanisms have different effects on decay times; the dynamic quencher reducing decay time inaccordance with equation (2), the static quencher not.
Typical sensors based on the measuring of decay time are described in DE 3 346 810 Al. The main advantage of measuring fluorescence decay time is that this method is much less error-prone than the one determining the concentration of the quencherQ by measuring fluorescence intensity, since the lifetime t of a fluorescent agent is independent of the intensity of the light source, the concentration of the dye and the sensitivity of the photodetector. Thus lifetime measurements are superior tointensity measurements even though they are technically more complex.
Known optical methods based on measuring decay time are only suitable for dynamic fluorescence quenchers, however, such as oxygen, SO.sub.2 or halothanes. Lifetime measurements are not suitable for determining pH or other analytical parametersinvolving color changes in the presence of known indicators, as the color-forming reactions take place in the electronic ground state.
In this context the reader is referred to EP-A-0 242 527, which contains a description of a method of determining chemical analytes with the use of antigens or antibodies, i.e., special proteins capable of specifically binding the analyte. Thedescribed method is a so-called homogeneous immunoassay, i.e., a technique characterised by an antigen binding a specific antibody. The resulting bond will permit an energy transfer from a donor fluorescer bond to one ligand to an acceptor fluorescerbound to another ligand, as long as there is a spectral overlap and donor and acceptor are within the Forster radius.
It is an object of the present invention to develop the method referred to previously in such a way as to permit quantitative determination of parameters whose measuring by the advantageous method of decay time measurement has not been possiblebefore.
In the invention this object is achieved by using as a second substance a chromogenic agent influencing the fluorescence of the fluorescent agent, the absorption maximum of the chromogenic substance shifting with the parameter to be determined,and by using the reduction in fluorescence decay time t occurring as a consequence of the energy transfer between chromogenic and fluorescent substance for quantitative determination of the chemical parameter. As an unexpected result of the energytransfer between chromogenic and fluorescent substance, a change in fluorescence decay time is found, which so far has only been observed in dynamic fluorescence quenching. This effect is employed for determining the parameters in the invention. Thechromogenic and fluorescent substances are advantageously immobilized on a solid substrate.
In accordance with the width of the absorption band of the non-fluorescent chromogenic agent emission of the fluorescent agent will vary, resulting in a reduction of fluorescence decay time. It has been found unexpectedly that the measuring ofdecay times will also supply information on substances which do not act as dynamic quenchers of the fluorescence radiation of the fluorescent agent.
Thus the method described is characterized by a considerable improvement in long-term stability vis-a-vis conventional techniques, which will permit the use of measuring arrangements corresponding to the invention in measuring stations, avoidingfrequent calibrations which have hitherto been necessary.
The theoretical basis of this effect is provided by the so-called energy transfer (ET), according to which electronic energy can be transferred from a donor (the fluorescent substance in this instance) to an acceptor (the analyte-sensitivechromogenic substance in this instance). There are no free photons in this process. The energy transfer is governed by the Forster equation
k.sub.ET being the velocity constant for ET, and R.sub.o and r, respectively, signifying the so-called critical distance and the actual distance, respectively, of donor and acceptor. R.sub.o (Forster radius) is that distance at which theprobability of Forster ET is equal to that of spontaneous ET.
The efficiency of the energy transfer thus will depend on the quantum yield of the donor, the overlap of the emission spectrum of the acceptor, and their relative orientation and distance. Typical transfer distances are between 0.5 and 10 nm. The distance between donor and acceptor has considerable influence on the energy transfer, since the latter is dependent on the sixth power of this distance.
An application of the invention provides that for determining the hydrogen ion concentration 7-diethylamino-coumarin-3-carboxylic acid be used as a fluorescent substance, and methyl orange as a chromogenic substance, or rather,8-aminopyrene-1,3,6-trisulphonate as a fluorescent substance and phenol red as a chromogenic substance.
Preferably, fluorescent substance (donor) and chromogenic substance (acceptor) are covalently attached to each other.
The subsequent table gives examples of combinations of a fluorescent and a chromogenic substance for determination of different chemical parameters, all fluorescent substances satisfying the demand that their fluorescence decay times must bewithin a measurable range.

DAYTON - Soddy Daisy girls tennis coach Lorri Johnson and her band of sisters have a goal of making three trips to play key matches in Murfreesboro this season.
In early April, the Trojans won the Oakland Invitational at the Old Forte Tennis Complex (site of Spring Fling in Murfreesboro) and Thursday they secured plans for trip No.2 with a 4-2 win against host Rhea County here for the Region 3 title.
Soddy Daisy will head north on I-24 next week for a sectional match against three-time defending sectional champ Siegel with the winner advancing to Spring Fling state tournament May 21-24 also at Old Forte.
"We played well today and grateful for the win, but Rhea County is a tough opponent," said coach Johnson.
"We know Siegel will be a strong opponent next week and we have to be at our best."
The Trojans took a 3-0 lead with singles wins at Nos.2-3-1 in that order (Chloe Mitchell, Abigail Ellis and Olivia Crawley) before the Eagles stormed back to win a pair of three setters at the bottom of the line-up (No.5 Katelyn Travis, No.4 Lindsay Smith).
Soddy Daisy then sealed the win with an 8-2 win at No.1 doubles (Mitchell-Ellis) to improve to 13-0, while Rhea County(13-1) suffered its first loss of the season.
"It was a good match between two strong teams and good sportsmanship shown by all players," said Rhea County coach Lil Andrews who earned her 250th career win last week in the district semis.
Soddy Daisy vs. Siegel ... Siegel has won the last three sectional titles, including a 4-1 win against Soddy Daisy last year... The Stars of coach Jeff Martin have win 10 straight region title matches, all by 4-0 scores, including a 4-0 triumph against Columbia Wednesday ... Siegel won a state title in 2008.
Off to College: Siegel's Marisa Kovach (No1.) will play at Bellarmine next year ...
The Trojans' Abigail Ellis has committed to Tenn. Wesleyan and will sign scholarship papers next week.
"I am excited about the opportunity to play at Tenn. Wesleyan next year and plan to study business and marketing," said Ellis who carries a 3.4 GPA and is team captain.

The draft TLAB 14 seeks to expand the definition of a "property company," as contained in the Act to address the inadvertent exclusion of foreign companies from the definition. The previous definition made reference to companies whose financial statements were prepared in accordance with the Companies Act of South Africa. Foreign companies are not subject to the Companies Act (and are not obliged to prepare annual financial statements in accordance with this Act) and it has been proposed that the definition be extended to include companies who prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS. This amendment is proposed to be retrospective, with effect from 1 April 2013 (ie from the date that the REIT provisions were introduced).
A further change to the REIT provisions is in relation to the CGT relief available to a REIT or a controlled company in relation to a REIT (controlled company). The proposed change, which relates to the disposal of immovable property by a REIT or a controlled company, narrows the relief available and provides that the disregarding of an aggregate capital gain derived by a REIT or a controlled company from the disposal of immovable property will only be applicable to the extent that the person making the disposal is a REIT or a controlled company in relation to a REIT at the time of the disposal. Previously, it was only required that the REIT or controlled company be a REIT/controlled company at the end of the year of assessment and not necessarily at the time of disposal. This proposed amendment is to apply in respect of years of assessment ending on or after the date of promulgation of the draft TLAB 14.
