My Panasonic 14-45 f/3.5-5.6 is sharper than my Oly 12-40 f/2.8!
Jun 7, 2014
I recently bought an Olympus 12-40 f/2.8, after reading rave reviews on how sharp this lens is supposed to be. My idea was to use the lens as my general purpose lens, both for hiking and for indoor use.
I noticed that the photos of my first hike were ok, but not necessarily super sharp, and so I decided to do a comparison with my much much cheaper Panasonic 14-45 f/3.5-5.6. It seems that, at f/5.6, the Panasonic is much sharper!
Is my 12-40 defective or do others notice the same?
Here are some 1:1 crops. Here is a comparison at 40mm. Panasonic is on the left.
Here is a comparison at 25mm; Panasonic is again on the left:

Tuu-Tikki has dreamed of adventuring for a long time. Ha wanted to go far away and see the world. So, one day Tuu-Tikki left his sweet home. He had to say good bye to his dear friend spiderman. Spiderman was very sad. But he understood that Tuu-Tikki had to go, it was Tuu-Tikki's biggest wish. There was no way he could have stopped him. Besides, Spiderman knew that Tuu-Tikki would let him go also, in the same situation.
On the road Tuu-Tikki put up with many different dangers. He had to fight with dragons, dwarfs, evil teddies, he had to run away from different monsters. Sometimes, Tuu-Tikki was very scared. He started to think that going away from home had been a bad idea. It wasn't safe anymore. But Tuu-Tikki was brave and carried on.
In a while Tuu-Tikki realised how lonely he was. He had no one to talk to. Nobody knew how much he had been quivering because of darkness and sounds coming from the deepness of the night. Nobody knew how much he had seen his own tears because he missed his warm home and a tasty cup of tea. Nobody knew how much he wanted to have somebody by his side to whom he could whisper words of love while sitting next to the bonfire.
Once he started thinking, Tuu-Tikki never came out of his thoughts. He stayed still and didn't move. Suddenly, he was trapped. Darkness with it's yellow-metallic hands had caught him. Tuu-Tikki never saw the sunlight again.
Roaming on the roads of life- not a bad idea. But doing it all alone- definitely a bad idea.

The present invention relates to AC line regulator systems, and, more particularly, to AC line regulators of the so-called phase fired type wherein the phase angle at which the firing of a semiconductor switching device is varied to provide the desired regulation in an associated load circuit. The regulation system of the present invention is particularly suitable for and will be described in connection with the regulation of quartz iodine lamps of the type used in cameras employed in the graphics arts industry.
The cameras used in the graphic arts industry, while similar in function to conventional cameras, usually employ film which is significantly larger. For example cameras employed in the graphic arts industry may have a film size as large as (30"�30"). The film in such cameras is exposed by a shutter mechanism which allows the light reflected from the image to reach the film. The exposure time can be as great as 30-45 seconds, depending on the type of film, the light intensity, and the effect desired. The typical light source for cameras of this type is a group of quartz iodine lamps. Each lamp may have a wattage of up to 800-900 watts and there can be eight lamps in one camera system. Accordingly, a bank of quartz iodine lamps in a typical camera may require a total power of 6800 watts.
Since the exposure time is directly related to the light energy (photons) striking the film, variations in light output will cause variations in the exposure time required. Furthermore, in quartz iodine lamps the light output of the lamp is exponentially related to the RMS value of the lamp excitation voltage, the exact value of the exponent being a function of the particular lamp design. For example, in a typical design a five percent variation in lamp voltage can produce a thirteen percent change in light output. Accordingly, it would be desirable to provide a highly regulated line voltage source so that the light output would be substantially constant and exposure times would be uniform despite large fluctuations in the AC line voltage.
One conventional arrangement for regulating an AC line is by the use of a ferro resonant transformer. However, if such an arrangement were employed to control the 6800 watt load of a bank of quartz iodine camera lamps, the ferro resonant transformer would be extremely expensive and would not be commercially attractive from a cost standpoint.
While various arrangements have been proposed for varying the AC line voltage applied to a lamp by varying the phase angle at which a semiconductor switching device is fired, as for example in projector equipment for selecting the intensity level of the lamp, if the lamp is to be regulated at rated line voltage then a transformer arrangement must be employed to permit variation above and below line voltage. Such a transformer arrangement when regulating a load of 6800 watts for a bank of camera lamps would also be prohibitively expensive.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved AC line regulation system which is particularly suitable for controlling a bank of quartz iodine lamps and wherein one or more of the above discussed disadvantages of prior art arrangements is avoided.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an AC line regulation system for high wattage loads wherein the firing point of a semiconductor switching device is varied to provide the necessary regulation without requiring a transformer in the main current path of the load circuit.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved AC line regulation systems for a bank of quartz iodine lamps wherein the firing point of a semiconductor switching means is referenced to a point at which the voltage across the lamp bank is substantially reduced from the AC line voltage and the lamps are designed to have rated light output at said reduced voltage.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a new and improved system for controlling the AC voltage applied to a bank of quartz iodine lamps wherein a regulating pulse width modulator is synchronized with the AC line voltage and provides variable width output pulses which are employed to control the firing point of a semiconductor switching means in series with the lamp bank.
Briefly, in accordance with one aspect of the invention, the quartz iodine lamps which are to be regulated are designed to provide rated power output at a reduced voltage substantially below rated line voltage. For example, with a nominal line voltage of 120 volts rms the quartz iodine lamps of the present invention are designed to provide rated power output at a voltage of 80 volts rms. The lamp is connected to the AC line through a semiconductor switching device and a control signal proportional to the average voltage across the lamp is employed to vary the firing point of said semiconductor switching device so that the average voltage across the lamp is maintained substantially constant despite large fluctuations in said line voltage. The reference point of the regulator system is selected so that the voltage applied to the lamp when the AC line voltage has said rated value is the reduced voltage at which the lamp is designed to provide rated light output.
In a preferred embodiment, the control signal is compared with a regulated reference voltage in the operational amplifier input stage of a regulating pulse width modulator type of integrated circuit. The normally free running oscillator section of the pulse width modulator is synchronized with the AC line by developing synchronizing pulses corresponding to the zero crossover points of the AC line voltage. These synchronizing pulses, which occur at a rate of 120 pulses per second, are then used to control the timing of the trailing edge of the variable width pulses developed within the modulator. The op amp error voltage is employed to control the timing of the leading edge of the variable width pulse so that variations in said error voltage cause the firing point of the semiconductor switching device to change in the correct direction to maintain the voltage across the lamp substantially constant despite large fluctuations in the AC line voltage.
The invention, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following specification taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
The single FIGURE of the drawings is a schematic diagram of the AC line regulator system of the present invention.
Referring now to the drawings, in the arrangement of the present invention a bank of quartz iodine lamps, such as the illustrated lamps 10, 12 is arranged to be energized from the AC line 14 under the control of the series connected semiconductor Triac type switching devices 16, 18.
In order to provide a suitable gating control signal for the gating electrodes of the Triacs 16, 17 a regulating pulse width modulator 20 is employed, which may be of the commercial type 3524 and is available from a number of integrated circuit manufacturers such as Silicon General and Texas Instruments, Inc. Regulating pulse width modulators of this type have heretofore been used only in DC switching regulators wherein the pulse width modulated output is normally stepped up or down in an output transformer circuit and is then rectified and utilized as a DC control voltage.
Power for the modulator 20 is derived from the AC line 14 through a suitable stabilized supply circuit. More particularly, the AC line voltage is rectified in the bridge rectifier 22 and is supplied through a diode 24 and resistor 32 to a Zener diode 34, a capacitor 36 being connected across the Zener diode so that a +15 volt stabilized DC voltage, identified as Vcc, is available for energizing the pulse width modulator 20.
The voltage across one of the lamps, such as the lamp 10, is sensed by a diode 50 which is connected in series with a resistor 52 and filter capacitor 60 to the ground terminal to which the lamps 10, 12 are also connected. There is thus produced across the capacitor 60 a voltage which is proportional to the average voltage developed across the lamp 10. The inverting input of the operational amplifier input stage of the pulse width modulator 20 is biased by means of the resistors 62 and 64 which are connected between a +5 volt source (which is an internal regulated dc voltage supply within the modulator 20) and ground, a feedback resistor 66 being connected from the output of this operational amplifier stage to the inverting input at which the +2.5 volt reference potential is established. A current balancing network is provided for the diode sensing input, this network comprising the resistor 56, the potentiometer 58 and the parallel connected resistors 54 which are connected between the +5 volt DC supply and ground, the potentiometer 58 being adjusted so that the firing point of the Triacs 16, 18 will be at the desired phase angle relative to the zero crossover points of the AC line voltage. The sensed average voltage across the lamp 10 is amplified in the operational amplifier input stage of the modulator 20 and is employed to control the width of the modulator pulses developed therein.
In accordance with an important aspect of the present invention the oscillator portion of the pulse width modulator 20, which is normally operated as a free running oscillator, is synchronized to the zero crossover points of the AC line voltage 14 so that a width modulated pulse the trailing edge of which is coincident with each of the crossover points of the AC line is developed. More particularly, a bridge rectifier 22 is employed to develop a full wave rectified voltage which is supplied through the resistors 38 and 42 to the base of the transistor 46. A clamping diode 40 is connected between the junction point of the resistors 38 and 42 and the +5 volt supply, the base electrode of the transistor 46 being connected through the resistor 44 to ground. With this arrangement, synchronizing pulses which occur at a 120 Hz rate are developed across the collector resistor 48 and are supplied to the input terminal 3 of the pulse width modulator 20. This terminal is connected to the internal oscillator of the modulator and the synchronizing pulses are of the proper polarity to synchronize this oscillator so that it operates at a 120 Hz rate and in synchronism with the AC line which is being used to energize the lamps 10, 12.
The leading edge of the width modulated pulse which is developed by the modulator 20 is controlled in accordance with variations in the error voltage developed in response to the sensed lamp voltage. In accordance with an important aspect of the present invention the position of this leading edge when the line voltage 14 has rated value, is chosen so as to permit a substantial variation in the position of this leading edge to accommodate wide fluctuations in the AC line voltage 14. This means that under normal rated line voltage the firing point of the Triacs, 16, 18 will occur at a substantial phase angle from the initial crossover point of the line voltage wave, for example, at a phase angle of 85 degrees, so that a substantially non-sinusoidal wave which has an average value substantially less than the rated line voltage is applied to the lamps 10, 12.
In accordance with a further aspect of the invention, the lamps 10, 12 are designed so that they produce their rated light output when this reduced non-sinusoidal voltage is supplied by the regulator. In this connection it will be understood that certain types of lamps, such as mercury arc lamps, cannot be controlled in the manner of the present invention because they require a substantially sinusoidal input voltage in order to remain in the conductive state and produce the desired light output characteristics. However, quartz iodine lamps are capable of giving the desired light output characteristics with an applied voltage of substantially unsymmetrical wave form so that this type of lamp can operate with the firing point on the Triacs at a substantial distance from the initial zero crossover point and thereby permit substantial variation of the firing point to accommodate fluctuations in the AC line voltage and without requiring the use of any transformer in the lamp current circuit. Accordingly, the regulator system of the present invention may be employed to regulate a bank of eight quartz iodine lamps which require a power of approximately 6,800 watts without requiring the use of any transformers and while operating from nominal line voltages. For example, the lamps 10, 12 may be designed to provide their rated light output power when a non-sinusoidal eighty volt rms wave form is supplied by the pulse width modulator with a nominal 120 volt AC line 14. In the event a 220 volt line is employed, the lamps 10, 12 are designed to provide rated light output when a non-sinusoidal voltage of approximately 170 volts is supplied thereto. Furthermore, with the voltage regulator arrangement of the present invention, wide fluctuations in the AC line voltage may be accommodated while providing very small changes in the light output of the quartz iodine lamps. For example, for a 40 volt input change in the AC line 14, a four volt output change is developed across the lamps 10, 12 so that the light output change caused by a 40 volt line input change is reduced from 132% to 10 %.
The width modulator pulses thus developed by the pulse modulator 20 are supplied from the output terminals 12, 13 thereof to the base of a driver transistor 68, which may be of the commercial type 2N5307, the base of this transistor being biased by means of the voltage divider network 70, 72 which is connected between the regulated 15 volt supply developed across the capacitor 36 and ground.
In accordance with a further aspect of the present invention a separate stabilized dc voltage is provided for the collector of the transistor 68 so that the sharp pulses of current drawn by this transistor when it is conducting will not cause interference with other portions of the circuit. More particularly, the resistor 26 and Zener diode 28 are connected from the junction point of the diode 24 and resistor 32 to ground and a filter capacitor 30 is connected across this Zener diode to provide a 15 volt stabilized dc supply which is connected to one end of the primary winding 76 of a pulse transformer the other end of this winding being connected to the collector of the transistor 68. A pair of transformer windings 78, 80 are provided to control the gate electrodes of the Triac 16 and 18. It will be understood that the current requirements of the pulse transformer 74 and driver transistor 68 on the pulse modulator 20 are relatively small since the gating signals supplied to the gating electrodes of the Triacs 16, 18 are at a relatively low power level although these Triacs may be employed to control a relatively high wattage lamp load. Preferably, each Triac 16, 18 may control two 800 watt lamps so that a total of four lamps may be controlled by the pulse transformer 74 and Triacs 16, 18. When an additional four lamps are to be controlled, a separate driver transistor and pulse transformer may be provided, this driver transistor being controlled from the output terminals 12, 13 of the modulator 20 in a manner similar to that shown.
While there has been illustrated and described a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it will be apparent that various changes and modifications thereof will occur to those skilled in the art. It is intended in the appended claims to cover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of the present invention.

Lukasz Fabianski wants his FA Cup semi-final shoot-out heroics to be rewarded with an extended run in the Arsenal team.
Goalkeeper Fabianski proved to be the difference against Wigan Athletic in Saturday's last-four clash at Wembley, as he saved the holders' first two spot-kicks from Gary Caldwell and Jack Collison to lay the foundations for Arsenal's 4-2 victory on penalties after the match had finished 1-1.
The Poland international has been an ever-present in Arsenal's run to the final, but is firmly established as his club's second-choice keeper behind compatriot Wojciech Szczesny in the Premier League.
Fabianski has not played in the top flight at all this season, and has made just four league appearances since the beginning of the 2011-12 campaign.
However, after putting Arsenal in prime position to end their nine-year trophy drought in next month's final against either Hull City or Sheffield United, Fabianski is hopeful of more opportunities in Arsene Wenger's starting XI.
"I'm very happy we managed to go through to the final, it's a massive thing for us, especially after such a difficult game," the Daily Mail quotes the 28-year-old as saying.
"But I don't know if I'll keep my place - it's up to the boss. After my performance, I hope I can."
Jordi Gomez beat Fabianski with a penalty to give Wigan the lead just after the hour on Saturday, before Per Mertesacker equalised late on to force extra-time and, ultimately, the shoot-out.
However, Gomez did not step up from 12 yards in the shoot-out - a decision the Arsenal stopper was not expecting.
"To be honest, I did some homework but none of them were on my list, the guys who stepped up," he added.
"So I was just guessing, it was more intuition rather than my homework. I was surprised Gomez didn't step up as the first one."

UCLA football: 3 biggest concerns (No. 1)
1. Running back
How weak was the Bruin running game in 2009?
UCLA's 114.6 yards rushing per game was less than half of Oregon's Pac-10 leading 231.7 ypg average. Stanford's Toby Gerhart rushed for nearly 400 yards (1871) by himself last year than the Bruins did as a team (1490).
Sophomore Johnathan Franklin showed glimpses of potential last season but his inability to hold onto the ball was more glaring. If Franklin or Derrick Coleman falter look for the pistol to be placed in the hands of one of the young guns—freshmen Malcolm Jones, Anthony Barr(video) or Jordan James.

All-party meet by GoM on AP division an "eyewash": BJP
Hyderabad: The all-party meeting convened by the Group of Ministers (GoM) on the issue of division of Andhra Pradesh was only an eye-wash, state BJP unit president G Kishan Reddy has alleged.
"We met GoM yesterday. We feel the Centre is not taking all-party views seriously. It appears that the meeting was only an eye-wash. Either government or any organisation must express its views clearly, before taking the views of others," Reddy told reporters here today.
"The Centre does not have any proposals on the 11 points on which views were sought. They are asking opposition parties to give their views without having any proposals," he said.
Reddy and his party colleague K Haribabu represented the BJP in the meeting of parties from AP convened by the GoM.
He quoted the GoM as having said that they are still collecting information on crucial issues involved in division like revenue sharing.
"How come they (GoM) do not have information? If they do not have information, how can we have? When we said this, they said yes it is correct. They are not asking anything. Only those who have gone had to give their views," Reddy said.
He took exception to the Congress not having a consensus within AP and presenting different views to the GoM.
"Even after CWC (Congress Working Committee) resolution, Cabinet approval, constitution of GoM (on division issue), Congress in AP or its ministers have not reached a consensus. On one hand they say that Sonia Gandhi gave Telangana and celebrate. On the other hand, different views are expressed. This is nothing but confusing people," he said.
The state BJP president reiterated that his party would support the bill for formation of separate Telangana if it is brought in the winter session of Parliament.
He also said the concerns of Seemandhra people should be addressed.
The Union Cabinet had earlier approved creation of a separate Telangana state out of Andhra Pradesh.

Two squirts squirm out of trouble! Arsenal and Everton to avoid FA sanction over tunnel bust-up sparked by Mirallas water spray at Wilshere
The Football Association will take no action over last night's tunnel bust-up at The Emirates Stadium, Sportsmail has learned.
Arsenal and Everton players clashed at half-time after Kevin Mirallas squirted water in Jack Wilshere's face sparking a full-on shoving match as the players went in at half-time.
However, the Fa are set to take now action after officials saw the incident as a minor skirmish.
Scroll down to watch match highlights from last night's game...
In the blue corner: Everton's Kevin Mirallas (left) clashes with Arsenal's Jack Wilshere during last night's 0-0 draw at the Emirates
1) Get the drink
2) Open the drink
3) Squirt the drink
Gunning for you: Jack Wilshere was understandably furious with Kevin Mirallas as they left the pitch
As it stands: The Top 6
The Arsenal midfielder reacted furiously.
The fracas during the 0-0 draw at the Emirates saw Wilshere raise his hand to the Belgian forward before players from both teams were separated for officials.
Mirallas's actions have led some pundits to question whether Everton were deliberately targeting Wilshere, who has a reputation as a fiery character.
Mirallas has been a relatively unsung hero in Everton's late charge for a top-four place.
Although he might have been overshadowed by fellow Belgian international Marouane Fellaini, his efforts have helped the Toffees to within just two points of the Champions League spots, although a win at the Emirates instead of last night's 0-0 draw would have given them far better prospects.
Chipping in with eight goals in all competitions this season, his strikes to grab Everton a win at Stoke and a point at White Hart Lane earlier this month cemented David Moyes' side above city rivals Liverpool in the Premier League table.
Signed from Greek champions Olympiacos originally as a striker, he has settled comfortably into a role on the Toffees' left wing.
The incident with Wilshere isn't the first time Miralles has hit headlines for something out of the ordinary.
In February, he flew to Germany to see controversial sports specialist Hans Muller-Wohlfhart, who injected fluid from chickens to help the winger's hamstring injury.
Tensions were already high after a fast-paced first half of a match that had huge implications for Champions League qualification.
Arsenal felt Everton midfielder Darron Gibson should have been shown a second yellow card for a clumsy challenge on Theo Walcott and manager Arsene Wenger said: 'Should Gibson have seen a red card? Yes.
'They decided to make it very physical and sometimes went over the edge, but the referee had to make the right decision.
'But if we win our remaining games we'll get into the Champions League.'
Everton manager David Moyes dismissed Wenger's complaints, asking: 'Do you mean when we were a little bit rough with the tackling? Up north we do that quite often. That's actually allowed in football.'
The draw leaves Everton struggling to break into the top four and Moyes added: 'We probably need to win all our remaining games to have a chance. Would I take a Europa League place now? Yes, I would.'
David Moyes left the Emirates slightly more satisfied than Wenger but Everton are two points adrift of the pack with only five to play, fixtures which include trips to Sunderland, Liverpool and Chelsea.
'We need favours,' said Phil Jagielka, who was magnificent in the heart of defence, and Moyes himself confessed five wins may be required if he is to cap another excellent campaign with the unlikely prize of a place in the Champions League.
The draw eased Arsenal two points clear of Chelsea but they have played two games more. Tottenham will take heart and Chelsea can go past them by winning at Fulham tonight. It most certainly did not quell any anxiety at the Emirates or the fears that this may be the year the Gunners slip out of the Champions League.
Wenger grumbled about 'intimidation' and his players snapped in the tunnel at half-time when Kevin Mirallas squirted water into Jack Wilshere's face and the handbags were out for pushing and shoving.
Both teams, in fact, played up to their caricatures. Arsenal wove spidery patterns with their passes, squandered chances while Everton were defiant, threatening on the break and still unable to eke a win in the Barclays Premier League at any of the biggest clubs.
They each boast a surplus of qualities the other might like more of. Arsenal possess craft and technique in abundance when Everton sometimes lack imagination. Everton are strong and effective where Arsenal were flimsy and far too quick to plead for protection.
Wilshere v Mirallas: This is how they fought it out on the pitch...

Handbags: The spat spilled over into the tunnel with a handful of other players weighing in on both sides
Tunnel of shove: Wilshere and Mirallas are separated as they head into the heart of the Emirates
Arsenal have history with tunnel rucks
October 2004: Manchester United ended Arsenal's unbeaten streak in the league after 49 games and the Old Trafford visitors did not react kindly. Angered at the manner of United's 2-0 victory, Arsene Wenger insulted Ruud van Nistelrooy as he passed him in the tunnel, provoking the fury of Sir Alex Ferguson.
As the United boss remonstrated with Wenger, Cesc Fabregas threw a slice of pizza that hit Ferguson on the chest.

Vieira's attempts to play mind games with Gary Neville prior to the
return game at Highbury, Roy Keane reacted the only way he knows how.
The United captain jabbed his finger (above) and told his counterpart: 'I'll see you out there'. Graham Poll had to intervene to calm Keane down.

Can someone explain to me how they are going to fund a phase 3 trial?
Yikes. You really should look deeper than Yahoo for your DD.
1) they don't have 199 mil shares out.
2) they have more $ now than 19 mil.
3) they are already in the middle of (possibly near end?) of Phase III trial.
4) a 2nd confirmation PhIII may be needed with ~200 people. They could maybe pull this off without raising more cash...or they could partner.
We good?
Sentiment: Strong Buy
It was only a matter of time before speeddog made up a strawman, complete with easy to refute assertions to help everyone feel superior to "the shorts"
Oncy management has not been particularly dilutive, keeping a small staff and spending trial money wisely.
I dont have a problem w management, I think they are doing the best they can w a bad hand (Reo).
I do not that longs are dishonestly suggesting the head and neck trial is near to allowing FDA approval. They will do this until the company announced a registrational phase III trial, at which time longs will switch to pretending the new trial will take no time.
Benefit of the doubt, one last time. The balance sheet reports dollars, not share counts. Since the "common stock" value did look high, I went to the actual financials (on ONCY's site) and learned that their stock is no-par. That means that it is booked at the values paid for it rather than being split between a tiny "par value" and "additional paid-in capital". Still, the share count is somewhere in the vicinity of 85 million shares. End of story.

This disc represents the music he has dedicated himself to since leaving Dirty Vegas in 2005. There's plenty of music here, all nicely repetitive and danceable.

PM panel suggests Smart card for subsidised foodgrains
New Delhi: Prime Minister`s expert committee
on National Food Security Bill has favoured distribution of
subsidised foodgrains through smart card-based public
distribution system (PDS) in order to stop the leakages.
"As an alternative to the existing PDS we may switch over
to the use of smart cards which simply means that the food
subsidy may be directly transferred to the beneficiaries
instead of to the owners of PDS stores," the committee headed
by PMEAC chairman C Rangarajan said in its report.
The report said that this will finally lead to a system
where there are no leakages and distortions of foodgrains and
will create incentives for PDS stores to be more efficient.
"... with the biometric identification system, people
will have the freedom to migrate to any part of the country
without the fear of losing their food rations," it added.
In terms of the fiscal burden, the smart cards will not
impose an additional burden and the subsidy may in fact
reduce, the report said.
Under the smart card-based PDS, all existing ration cards
would be replaced with bio-metric featured smart cards. These
smart cards will contain bio-metric features of adult members
of the ration card holder families.
Certain states like Chattisgarh, Chandigarh and Haryana
has already introduced the smart card-based distribution
systems on pilot basis in certain districts.
The government, in the 2008-09 Budget, had announced that
Haryana and the Union Territory of Chandigarh will implement
the smart card based delivery system.
