The ironic thing is that with the cancer diagnosis she falls into the
"uninsurable" category. Falling into the "uninsurable" category
qualifies her for HIPUtah, which cannot deny her, and will take her no matter
what. The premiums for HIPUtah are no higher than for healthy people her same
age, and depending on her income, will even discount her premiums based on
The ACA is going to fail to cover people, and will cost tax payers a lot more money than the CBO claims. Just look at the Medicare Drug program, and all other health insurance programs the Feds administer. Also, think of it this way, if the Government can lose $60 billion/yr, 2 times the loss that private insurance companies lose combined, while insuring half as many people, what will happen when they add more people to their insurance rolls?
To those who think that a government program is taking care of your neighbor, you are wrong. You are not helping your neighbor, you are paying Caeser to console your conscience.

The comments written here are so disjointed, it is impossible to agree or
disagree with any of them!
**** Obamacare was not written by "the democrats and republicans". It was written by SOME democrats who locked out republicans and other democrats. Why did we let them get away with breaking the law that way?
**** It is true that both sides make the process difficult. It is supposed to be that way, to prevent one side from taking over (see above remark). Otherwise, you have what we now have: one man who is forcing his secret plans on everyone. If Obama wins, you will see just what that means!
**** Why must people always think in extremes? It is possible, you know, to reform health care without the insanity of Obamacare! Obama has succeeded in convincing half of America that HE is the Savior of us all, while portraying Romney as the devil. I don't know if Romney can fix everything, but he can fix some things, and prevent Obama from his plan of subduing America and making us a second rate country to satisfy his arrogant view of what should be, and punish white men like me for the past.

If by some miracle Romney is elected President this year, it seems like he would
rather have the states do their own affordable health care plans. Rather than
rely on a "wait and see" policy, why not look at the MassACT plan that
Romney approved in part, and see if there is something there that Utah could
replicate, and do it now? I would much rather have health care reform in state
legislation of less than 100 pages than the 2,700 pages of the ACA.
There is a site which displays the MassACT legislation with the parts vetoed by the governor and overturned by the legislature clearly marked. Since comments with links may not be posted here, you will have to find it yourself if you wish to see it. Pertinent information is that it is from the MA legislature Session Laws of 2006, Chapter 58.

The Health was written by an extreme leftest private organization funded wholly
or in part by socialist billionaire George Soros,
It was given to certain democrats to introduce to congress,
that is why Pelosi said we must pass it first to find out what is in it (in obedience to her leftest masters),
even the democrats didn't know.
To suggest republicans had any part in it is just nonsensical rubbish.
And in related news,
Today, an official from the Obama administration just admitted (in so many words) there will be a need for "death panels" to control costs.
this healthcare bill, in so many ways, was created and passed so corruptedly, and it will destroys freedom and will destroy this country financially.
All that Obama is doing will, by current accounts will cost this country in excess of 20 trillion dollars, in known future costs.
And SHAME on the left in trying to inject the religion (and SO WRONGLY is their understanding of scripture) into this discussion, aren't you the ones saying the church and state should be separate, or just hate religion in first place, or say religion should and must be private and not public policy?

andyjaggy - how is it her fault that she has cancer? I know that if I get cancer even though I have done my best not to get this terrible disease that it is because I know that there are certain cancers that are hereditary in my family. So therefore it is NOT this person's fault for getting it. There are a number of cancers in my family that I could have inherited. If I should get diagnosed with one I guess it would be my fault that I have it because I was born.

Partnership and participation improves the chances of success and sustainability
resulting in better policy development and promote effective social capital
structures if Governor Herbert is successful in leading democratic partnerships.
The process requires participatory democracy, equity between partners and power
structures, and restructuring power relations to engaging the community
effectively. Partnerships face considerable challenges empowering disadvantaged
communities and improving their health and may unintentionally ensure continuity
of insecurity and dependence for community-led initiatives by forcing
communities, individuals, and health care systems to compete with each other for
vital resources.
•Public sector organizations compete for funds and must balance competing interest, such as focusing on economic factors perhaps to the exclusion of the more difficult issues of health inequalities and social exclusions to insure access to health care.
•Potential conflicts between national policy and state or local priorities/issues advancing Utah as a state that is out of step with federal humanitarian concerns.
•Democratic governmental structural limitation to be agile, quick and flexible in responses to issues.
•Social capital concepts of trust, reciprocity and respect may be absent due to power structures when partnering with the state.

As the first rays of sunshine
wakes me out of my sleepy slumber,
I sat up in bed and looked at my hands.
The taste of stale cigarette smoke of cheap red wine
stained my taste buds.
I walked out of bed,
turned on the radio
(to the classical station)
and my heart beats to the tune
my life and soul smile as the sun shines in my room.
I hear God whispering in my ear
I hear all the words of the world
talking to me,
and I can hear my heart sing a little.
I read my poetry,
get dressed go for a walk,
I smile at the faces that I pass;
The cars I pass,
the houses,
the trees,
the dry lawns,
burnt and that have not been watered in days.
I smile at them and they all smile back,
and my heart sings a little,
and I dance to its simple tune.
My heart sings and I dance too:
slowly melodies,
fast jigs,
rapid jazz and swing music
and waltzes to the chopin masterpieces,
and the romantic stories, novels, the poems,
that fancy your mind with its ryhme schemes,
and after I read such romantic beauty
I smile, and I listen closely to my heart,
and with every beat,
it lets out a verse or two, from a familiar song
that caught my ear on the radio,
and my heart sings
and I smile,
and the world smiles back.
Feeling such beauty
love and romance
it is such a good feeling to live with;
and as the night rolls on,
and the sun goes away
I sit at my desk
writing poetry,
with a cigarette slowly burning away with time,
and I am stuck,
getting drunk of red wine,
I sit back in my chair,
and listen to my heart,
and he sings alittle
and I can write again.
So, there we sit together,
writing poetry,
smoking cigarettes,
drinking wine
to the strike of nine
and we both sing songs of love and romance
together forever.

The lights have all disappeared
And the torch lamp's weary
To block darkness
Darkness is eternity!
Light your red candle
O chase lonesomeness
The deep lonesomeness
By the soft sound of your voice
Your nightingale voice
Speak that Chinese
When you come
Come when the winds blow
Come when trees crawl
Come when birds sing
Of turtledove birds come
Come when I come
Let's come together, all our life!
Oh, the night and the torch lamp
O at a dark night of a rainy season
At Elobi for a forlorn student
It's strident.

From you, I don't want to hear another word.
You say you wish to be like that yellow bird?
There it perches up in the banana tree.
Whenever it wants to, it can fly away freely.
Perhaps its latest mate just absconded from the nest.
Do you think he cares? He can choose among the rest.
You don't know how good you've got it on this tropic isle.
You can be without a woman for just a short while.
Like the flowers in the jungle, women can be picked easily.
There are plenty of them out there for you and me.
Do not wish to be a bird; be thankful you're a man.
You can attract women as well as any man can.

There's tears of joy
tears of hope
all different kinds
feelings aren't toys.
some are afraid to cry
in front of other's
hide every drop
under their covers.
big to small
every tear
happy to sad
to when they fear.
grab a tissue
dab on your eye
it's ok
for you to cry.

I complained about this a while ago and someone suggested it was being worked on.
If people paste a title from another program into the title field, and if that title contained "smart quotes", then the quotes turn up in the URL. Why is this the case? The permalink field is great about getting rid of spaces and other bad characters, why do smart quotes (and apostrophes and a few other bad characters) not get filtered out?
Right now I have to go through manually every night and get rid of these, but some times I miss them, resulting in ugly and dysfuntional URLs.
Any progress on this?

The present invention relates to a remote control device adapted to control locking and unlocking, remotely from a vehicle such as an automobile vehicle, locks for doors and trunk of such vehicle.
Locks for doors and trunk of the automobile vehicle are often locked and unlocked by manually operating a key inserted thereinto. Recently, a remote control device has been developed which utilizes an electrical or optical remote control signal instead of the key to lock and unlock remotely from the automobile vehicle. Such remote control device comprises a receiver equipped on the automobile vehicle and a portable transmitter provided independently of the automobile vehicle.
A particular keyword information (key number) is assigned to each automobile vehicle in the form of a corresponding encoded information and a remote control signal in accordance with this encoded information is transmitted by a trigger operation from said transmitter. More specifically, the encoded information is directly modulated by the pulse number modulation technique to a corresponding pulse number of minimum width and the train of pulses thus obtained is electrically or optically transmitted as the remote control signal. As the optical remote control signal, infrared-ray energy has usually been used.
The receiver receives the remote control signal, demodulates or decodes it to regenerate the encoded information, compares this encoded information with an information previously stored by the lock and outputs an execution signal only when a result of this comparison is positive.
The door locks or the trunk lock are controlled by this execution so that the locked lock is unlocked and the unlocked lock is locked again. To prevent repeated locking and unlocking occurring due to repeated transmission of the remote control signal, there has been provided a countermeasure such that the one-way control from "locking" to "unlocking" or from "unlocking" to "locking" should be performed when said repeated transmission of the remote control signal is made within a predetermined time period.
The lock controlled in such a manner includes an electromagnetic driving mechanism adpated to be activated with said execution signal. Although the lock control is effected simultaneously with respect to all the door locks, different reception areas are assigned to respective remote control means associated with the door locks and with the trunk lock so that the door locks and the trunk lock may be separately controlled.
As indicated above, the remote control device of prior art utilizes a train of pulses having minimum width converted from the keyword information as the remote control signal and, as a result, is susceptive of malfunction due to influence of an electrical noise.
FIG. 5 illustrates by way of example a train of pulses transmitted as the remote control signal, in which each pulse width is 0.1 millisecond, synchronizing pulses P appear at an interval of 2.5 milliseconds, and the synchronizing pulses P having no signal pulse therebetween represent a code "0" while the synchronizing pulses P having a signal pulse P1 therebetween represent a code "1". Such remote control signal is code-regenerated on the basis of a count of the pulse number and, therefore, when an electrical noise pulse PX is generated as indicated by broken lines, the code "0" would be regenerated as the code "1", causing a malfunction.
The electrical noise is caused not only by operation of the device but also by the environmental factors and it has been difficult to overcome this perfectly.
Furthermore, in view of a fact that, with such remote control device, the transmitter is operated remotely from the automobile vehicle, the user often places reliance on function of the device and fails to confirm a result. A possible malfunction of the device would result in leaving the automobile vehicle with its doors and trunk unlocked and, with consequence, theft of goods loaded on the automobile vehicle or even of the automobile vehicle itself.
The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned problems and is characterized in that the transmitter provided independently of the vehicle converts a particular keyword information into pulses of corresponding pulse widths and then pulse-modulates these converted pulses prior to transmission while the receiver equipped on the vehicle receives said pulse-modulated signal as the remote control signal and demodulates this to produce a predetermined output.
Said remote control signal comprises a train of pulse groups each including a plurality of pulses generated in accordance with each pulse width of the converted pulses, so that the electrical noise signals possibly generated among the pulse groups are prevented from being regenerated as the code information and substantially no malfunction due to such noise signal may occur.
The invention will be clearly understood on reading of the following description of preferred embodiments given in reference with the accompanying drawing.
Referring to FIG. 1 which illustrates, in a block diagram, an electronic circuit arrangement of a transmitter adapted to be portably used independently of an automobile vehicle, reference numeral 11 designates an information generator, 12 an information processor, 13 a trigger switch and 14 a driver.
Said information generator 11 is used for previous generation of particular keyword number codes for the respective autombile vehicles and the information generation is performed, for example, by coding in binary form such as `1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0,`. As an example of such coding the respective input terminals for coding purpose of microcomputer may be connected to a power supply line or a ground line to achieve the desired coding.
The information processor 12 is adapted to convert the keyword number codes into pulses having pulse widths predetermined for the respective codes and to subject the pulses thus converted to pulse modulation.
During conversion from the keyboard number codes to the pulses having the corresponding widths performed by this information processor 12, the code "1" appears as a pulse P 10 having a larger width and the code "0" appears as a smaller width at a predetermined timing, as seen in FIG. 3(a).
These converted pulses are modulated by a carrier as illustrated by FIG. 3(b) to provide a pulse-modulated output signal as illustrated by FIG. 3(c). This output signal comprises a train of carrier pulse groups generated in correspondence to the pulse widths of the respective converted pulses.
The conversion from the codes into the pulses and the pulse modulation thereof can be achieved by previously programming the microcomputer so that the keyboard number codes may be input to this microcomputer to produce the modulated pulses as the output thereof. The pulse modulation may be performed by the circuit arrangement well known as a transmission system for the pulse modulation.
The driver 14 may be a well known high velocity pulse driver adapted to drive an infrared light emitting diode 15 which emits light as infrared-ray energy.
The transmitter includes a power source such as alkaline batteries which, upon closure of the trigger switch 13, respective circuit sections. Once energized, the codes generated from the information generator 11 are converted into the corresponding pulse widths and are pulse-modulated. Then the driver 14 responds to the modulated signal to drive the infrared light emitting diode 15. The infrared light emitting diode 15 emits, in accordance with the modulated signal as illustrated by FIG. 3(c), the infrared-ray energy which is transmitted as a remote control signal, to a receiver as will be described later.
FIGS. 1 and 2 schematically illustrate an embodiment of the present invention, in which FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an electronic circuit of a transmitter and FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating an electronic circuit of a receiver;
FIGS. 3(a), (b) and (c) respectively illustrate code-converted pulses, carrier and modulated pulses generated by the transmitter and FIGS. 3(d) and (e) respectively illustrate photoelectrically converted pulses and demodulated pulses generated by said receiver;
FIG. 4 illustrates information contents of a remote control signal transmitted from the transmitter;
FIG. 5 illustrates a remote control signal usually used by the device of prior art;
FIG. 6 is a circuit diagram of a code input device;
FIGS. 7(a), (b) and (c) are fragmented schematic illustrations by way of example in enlarged scale of code generating elements for coding;
FIGS. 8(a), (b) and (c) are schematic illustrations similar to FIG. 7, of the other embodiments of the code generating elements; and
FIG. 9 is a time chart illustrating code voltages input by the code input device.
Referring to FIG. 2 which illustrates in a block diagram an electronic circuitry of a receiver with which an automobile vehicle is equipped, reference numeral 17 designates a photodiode adapted to sense the infrared-ray energy having passed through a filter 18 which may be of prior art construction, e.g., an infrared-ray filter or an absorption filter. The receiver further includes an amplifier 19, a demodulator 20 and waveform shaper 21. The amplifier 19, demodulator 20 and waveform shaper 21 may be integrally formed as a preamplifier 22 for light receiving and the demodulator 20 may be the circuit arrangement well known for a transmission system for pulse modulation. Reference numeral 23 designates an information processor, 24 a collating code generator, 25 a driver, and 26 a lock driving mechanism.
The output signal from said photodiode 17 is in the form of the pulse-modulated photoelectric conversion output signal as illustrated by FIG. 3(d), which is, in turn, input to the preamplifier 22 for light receiving. This preamplifier 22 for light receiving amplifies, demodulates and waveform shapes said photoelectric conversion signal to provide a pulse signal 27 as illustrated by FIG. 3(e) which is same, in its waveform, as the code-converted pulse.
Said information processor 23 is applied with the output signal 27 and decodes this signal 27 to regenerate the original binary code such as `1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0`.
This information processor 23 includes a comparator adapted to compare said regenerated code with the collating code and outputs an execution signal 28 upon coincidence of these two code systems. Said comparator may be constructed so that the number of pulses associated with the collating code is compared to the number of pulses associated with the regenerated code or the modulated pulses as illustrated by FIG. 3(e) are integrated and such integrated voltage is compared to a reference voltage associated with the collating code.
The information processor 23 comparing the regenerated code with the collating code as mentioned above may be a comparator well known in the art or a microcomputer which has previously been programmed.
The collating code has previously been prepared by the collating code generator 24 which is identical in its construction to the information generator 11 included in the transmitter.
The driver 25 is activated with the execution signal 28 to control the lock driving mechanism 26 so that locking or unlocking may be performed. The driver 25 and the lock driving mechanism 26 may be those well known in the art. Reference numeral 29 designates a switch operatively associated with locking and unlocking. This switch 29 applies a signal "0" upon closure thereof and a signal "1" upon opening, respectively, to the information processor 23 which, in turn, determines a locked condition or an unlocked condition on the basis of these input signals and outputs an execution signal required for transition from "locking" to "unlocking" or from "unlocking" to "locking".
The receiver comprising the above-mentioned circuit components receives the infrared-ray energy in accordance with the pulse modulation and demodulates and decode this. Therefore, even when any noise pulse PX as illustrated by FIG. 3(d) is inserted between each pair of adjacent modulated pulses, such pulse PX is removed in the course of demodulation (during which those of a frequency same as that of the carrier are demodulated) and even when the noise pulse is mixed into the modulated pulse itself, a possible effect of the noise pulse can be minimized by integrating the demodulated pulses (FIG. 3(e)) before comparison.
The remote control signal transmitted from the transmitter contains many information contents and specifically forms a pulse frame as illustrated by FIG. 4. The pulse frame illustrated by way of example of FIG. 4 comprises 17 bits and each code-converted pulse has any one of three pulse widths, i.e., 3 milliseconds, 2 milliseconds or 1 millisecond. These pulses are pulse modulated by the carrier of 40 KHz. A pulse P20 serves as a start signal, a pulse P21 of 16 bits serves as a keyword number code, a pulse P22 serves as a signal identifying a door lock and a trunk lock, and a pulse P23 serves as an end signal. The transmitter which transmits such remote control signal is conveniently provided with a code input device as illustrated by FIG. 6 as the information generator 11.
Referring to FIG. 6, reference numeral 31 designates a microcomputer serving as the information processor 12, reference numerals 32a through 32n designate code input terminals, 33a through 33n code generating elements, 34 a voltage signal source, 35 a voltage signal output terminal and 36a through 36n resistor members.
To said code input terminals 32a through 32n, there are connected the associated code generating elements 33a through 33n which are formed as by means for the formation of a printed circuit in identical conductive patterns. For example, the code generating element 33a ehxibits a conductive pattern 39a having one terminal 37a connected to a voltage source of a predetermined voltage, another terminal 38a connected to a ground voltage source and a middle point 40a connected to the code input terminal 32a. It should be understood that reference symbols 37b through 40b of the code generating element 33b as well as reference symbols 37n through 40n of the code generating element 33n designate the corresponding points.
Each of the code generating elements 33a through 33n performs encoding of the input information in the manner illustrated by FIGS. 7(a), (b) and (c). More specifically, there is provided between the terminal 38a and the middle point 40a a punched out portion 41a, as illustrated in FIG. 7(a), to effect encoding "1"; there is provided between the terminal 37b and the middle point 40b a punched out portion 41b, as illustrated by FIG. 7(b), to effect encoding "0"; and there is provided a punched out portion 41n directly on the middle point 40n, as illustrated by FIG. 7(c), to effect encoding "open voltage" (high impedance). The encoding "open voltage" can be effected also when there are provided two punched out portions between the terminal 37n and the middle point 40n and between the terminal 38n and the middle point 40n, respectively.
The remainder of the code generating elements 33c through 33n-1 also perform encoding in a similar manner. It should be noted here that FIGS. 7(a), (b) and (c) is only an exemplary illustration and locations of the punched out portions in the respective code generating elements 33a through 33n depend on the keyword number codes to be input.
The code generating elements 33a through 33n may be formed also by combination of first, second and third conductive components slightly spaced from one another, as illustrated by FIG. 8. The code generating element 33a illustrated by FIG. 8(a) comprises the first conductive component 42a connected to a voltage source of a predetermined voltage, the second conductive component 43a connected to a ground voltage source and the third conductive component 44a connected to the code input terminal 32a. This is the same with respect to the remaining code generating elements. Thus, referring to FIGS. 8(b) and (c), reference numerals 42b and 42n designate the first conductive components, 43b and 43n the second conductive components, and 44b and 44n the third conductive components.
In the present embodiment, encoding "1" is effected when the first conductive component 42a is connected to the third conductive component 44a, as illustrated by FIG. 8(a); encoding "0" is effected when the second conductive component 43b is connected to the third conductive component 44b, as illustrated by FIG. 8(b); and encoding "open voltage" is effected when the respective conductive components 42n, 43n and 44n are not connected together.
The voltage signal source 34 as illustrated by FIG. 6 is incorporated into a part of the microcomputer 31 and produces at its output terminal 35 a voltage signal in response to a code input. This voltage signal varies from a high level voltage "1" to a low level voltage "0" and is applied through the resistor members 36a through 36n commonly to the respective code input terminals 32a through 32n. The voltage signal source 34 may be constructed so that the voltage signal varies from the low level voltage "0" to the high level voltage "1" or may be an arrangement provided independently of the microcomputer 31.
Now operation of the code input device will be discussed. When the respective circuit sections are energized in the code input, the code generating element 33a produces the voltage of code "1", the code generating element 33b produces the voltage of code "0" and the code generating element 33n is at the "open voltage".
So long as the voltage signal source 34 is generating the voltage signal "1", the code voltage of the code generating elements 33a and 33b remain "1" and "0", respectively, and only the code generating element 33n is changed over from the "open voltage" to the code voltage "1". The code voltage "1" is input to the code input terminal 32n while the state of the code generating element 33n remains unchanged.
Upon change-over of the voltage signal of the voltage signal source 34 from "1" to "0", the code voltages of the code generating elements 33a and 33b remain "1" and "0", respectively, but the code voltage of the code generating element 33n is changed over from "1" to "0".
In consequence, during continuous generation of the voltage signal, the code input terminal 32a continues to be applied with the code voltage "1, 1", the code input terminal 32b continues to be applied with the code voltage "0, 0", and the code input terminal 32n continues to be applied with the code voltage "1 and 0".
FIG. 9 is a time chart illustrating the above-mentioned code input with respect to the time elapsing, on the assumption that the code input is repeated twice.
Referring to FIG. 9, reference symbol (A) represents the code voltage "1, 1" input from the code input terminal 32a, (B) represents the code voltage "0, 0" input from the code input terminal 32b, (N) represents the code voltage "1, 0" input from the code input terminal 32n, and (V) represents the voltage signal "1, 0" output from the output terminal 35. As can be seen from this figure, the input device is applied with the codes as binary codes selected from three types "1, 1", "0, 0" and "1, 0", so that the input device can be applied with totally 3n coded input information where n represents the number of input terminals.
When the voltage signal source 34 generates the voltage signal varying from "0" to "1", there are provided the binary codes of three types "1, 1", "0, 0" and "0, 1". Accordingly, if there is provided the output terminal 35 as in the code input device, the number of terminals will be n+1 and it will be possible to perform the code input of 3n informations using this number of terminals.
More specifically, with a microcomputer having ten code input terminals, the addition of one output terminal results in totally eleven terminals and it is possible for this microcomputer to perform the code input on 310 =59,049 informations. With the conventional microcomputer having sixteen code input terminals, the code input will be performed on 216 =65,536 informations.
As will be understood therefrom, provision of the above-mentioned code input device permits the microcomputer having the same number of code input terminals as the conventional microcomputer to input the number of information S higher than the conventional microcomputer can input or permits a smaller sized microcomputer having fewer code input terminals to achieve the number of informations S substantially as achieved by the conventional microcomputer.
It is also possible to transmit a predetermined quantity of information with fewer transmission bits by preparing the keyword code not in binary but in ternary form and thereby defining a width of the transmitting pulse into three patterns. In such a case, a time period required for transmission can be shortened and a current consumption required for transmission can be reduced.
Although a keyword information is converted into the corresponding pulse width in the embodiment that has been described hereinabove, it is also possible to convert the keyword information into the corresponding location of the pulse having a constant width.
There may be provided means responsive to reception of the remote control signal by the receiver to light a room lamp temporarily or to activate a buzzer temporarily remotely from the automobile vehicle.
Assuming that the locking is effected by the first operation and the unlocking is effected by the next operation of the receiver, an arrangement is convenient such that the door or the trunk is automatically locked again and kept locked in spite of possibly repeated remote control signals from the transmitter unless the door or trunk is opened within a predetermined time period (e.g., five seconds).
It should be understood that the device according to the present invention is identical to the devices of prior art in aspects, for example, in that the above-mentioned receiver controls every door lock of the automobile vehicle and that the one-way control from "locking" to "unlocking" or from "unlocking" to "locking" is effected even when the remote control signal from the transmitter is repeated within a short time period.
The remote control device of the invention may utilize a radio signal instead of the infrared-ray energy as the remote-control signal.
As will be obvious from the foregoing description, with the remote control device according to the present invention, any noise pulse possibly mixed into the remote control signal is never demodulated or decoded and the correct code regeneration is achieved, since the transmitter converts the keyword information into a train of pulses having predetermined pulse widths and pulse-modulates these code-converted pulses to provide the remote control signal to regenerate the keyword information. In consequence, there is provided remote control device for the vehicle lock operation with high accuracy and being substantially free from influence of electric noise.

Erin Andrews & Maksim Chmerkovskiy: Maybe Dating!
Holy freaking hotness. That's all we can say about the rumor that Erin Andrews and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, partners on the new season of Dancing with the Stars, are partnering off the dance floor as well. Maks even said it might be on!
Chmerkovskiy says that he and the ESPN sportscaster are "maybe" dating. That's a lot closer to dating than "no," right? He also lavished praise upon his partner.

What is a yaoi fangirl's worst nightmare?
In 1970 I read an anthology of scifi as published by Playboy that had this as a theme as a short story, being that male-female sex was a perversion as opposed to same-sex being the norm.
…and what's wrong with that?!
they must be shocked that they were kissing in public. many couples wouldn't even hold hands in public.
This seems to be where we're going…
So they're having sex? Too bad we didn't get the long shot.
Are they openly "sad" as opposed to gay?
I read about 40 years ago one short SiFi story about a disease that metamorphs every male into a female over night. Humanity almost became extinct. The gist was all those men now women adjusting by literally dressing as females. About gender roles and their costumes.
Not that there's anything wrong with it…
John – you get the best comments on your stuff
I remember reading an article 40 years ago, predicting that we would all have devises that fit into our pockets like a calculator, but with which we could not only do calculations but communicate with people around the world and remotely control appliances in our homes…of course, none of that came true. I think it was written by hp, since it was in reverse Polish.
Can you think of a single modern TV show that shows married sex as a good thing? As opposed to every act being outside of marriage? It's always "hi there, I'm Z. Your bed or mine." (BARF!)
One of the reasons why I adapted the Bible's book Song of Solomon to a novel was that there is nothing out there that has husband-wife relationships in a positive light.
Answering a potential question: the back photo is of a golden delicious apple tree growing sideways in the upper slopes of the Siskiyous. Deer had eaten most of the apples, leaving tracks all over the place. (I ate the one whole apple that was left. Whew! A ripe apple, what a concept!) Deer and apples were images in the Bible's SoS book, so it seemed appropriate. The tree at the time had only half and apple left and it was hidden. So, I took photos of an apple and added them in. Wrong color, but call it artistic license. (Red was what I had on hand.)
In the early 60's Anthony Burgess (who wrote "A Clockwork Orange") wrote a novel about a society where heterosexuals were treated as second class citizens, and one of the gay officers responsible for their rounding up was a closeted straight. I believe it was called "The Wanting Seed," but I won't swear to it.

Is there a call inside The Loop or something kind of a code to call all the subpages of that page (Example, under the tutorials page I have 6 more pages, all different tutorials. How do I list them in the tutorial page itself so I don't keep editing everytime there is a new one?)

The wall shelf is a great project that looks good, and can easily be made in a weekend. The small size makes it a great decorating accent that can hold pictures, small decorative items, or anything else you can think of.
The example in the pictures I made out of ambrosia maple, but any hardwood will work well for this project. I used 4/4 rough sawn stock, but if a jointer and planer are not available pre-milled stock that is 3/4″ thick can be used. A good wood glue will be needed as well. The tools I used for this project are as follows
This project comes from the Sears Essential Woodworking Tools series.
The first task is stock prep. I used a circular saw to cut down the stock into manageable pieces. I start out with three boards that are about an inch wider than final width, and a couple inches longer. I run one face of each board at the jointer till each is flat and then the planer to get the opposite face parallel. Still at the planer I bring down the boards to a thickness of 3/4", alternating faces each pass. Back at the jointer I edge joint one edge of each board and then using that as the reference edge cut each board to width on the table saw. Using a miter gauge on the table saw I square up one end and then cut the other end to bring each board to length. At this point I have 4 pieces, one for the top, one for the back, and two small squares for the brackets.
With all the pieces sized, I started working on the joinery, starting with the dados for the brackets. The dados on the top and back boards, must line up with each other, so care was taken with layout for these. The dados are 3/8" wide, cut with a 3/8" straight bit on the router. To help line up and keep the dados straight, I used a shop made T-square jig. Using a couple sharp chisels, I square the ends of the dados. A 3/4" wide x 3/8" deep rabbet is made on the top piece to accept the back. This is done on the table saw with a dado stack, with an auxiliary fence. The brackets need a couple tongues that will fit into the dados. I did this on the router table with a 3/8" rabbeting bit. Please take care with these small pieces, and use a small parts jig on the router table, otherwise your fingers will get too close to the spinning bit. I trimmed the front of the tongues so that they would fit in their dados using the band saw, and a chisel to clean up the cuts. I then checked everything for fit, and made adjustments as needed.
With the joinery completed, I then worked on the more decorative element of the brackets, again using small part jigs for safety. I made the brackets with a cover shape, but any shape could be used. I accomplished this by taping the two brackets together, and drew out the shape on one. I used the band saw to cut out the shape, leaving the line. I then cleaned up the shape with the oscillating spindle sander. After getting the shape looking good, I separated the pieces and rounded them over on the router table, again using a small parts jig. I decided to have some fun with the brackets, and instead of leaving two quarter round with a flat space, I used a rasp and sand paper to further shape the brackets so that the front profile had a more rounded and refined appearance.
With the brackets complete, I sanded all the parts as it is easier to do so before glue-up. I also rounded over the faces that wouldn't be accessible by the router after everything is glued together. From there, I put glue into all the joints, and clamped it up. After 20-30 minutes I cleaned up any glue squeeze out, then left the glue to dry for a few hours. I finished the round overs, including some hand work with the rasp to make the round overs on the inside corners meet together. Finally I went over the shelf for one final sanding.
I will apply the finish on the shelf this spring, where I will apply two coats of boiled linseed oil, and allow that to cure. For the top coat, I will apply 4 or 5 coats of shellac.
This shelf is very easy to build, even with a basic set of tools. I would encourage you to not only try building this shelf, but be creative with it to make it your own as well!

Posted on 08/04/2010 1:47:06 PM PDT by Bigtigermike
Judge strikes down 'Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California'...
JUDGE: Having considered the trial evidence and the arguments of counsel, the court pursuant to FRCP 52(a) finds that Proposition 8 is unconstitutional and that its enforcement must be enjoined.
That BAD ruling must not stand.
A gay man is free to marry a woman, just like a straight man.
I don't see the discrimination.
I'm speechless.
So sad.....May GOD have mercy on a sinful world..May his truth prevail..
MARRAIGE is 1 MAN and 1 WOMAN!!
It was reported on the radio this morning that the judge is a homosexual.
Why do we even bother having elections anymore?
TRANSLATION: Who the hell do the PEOPLE think they ARE, trying to overrule the will of the left??!!!
IOW the judge made a legal determination that homosexuals are "born that way".
Like we didn't see that result coming.
Get a liberal law degree.
Constitution? We don't need no stinkin' constitution.
It's your thang....do whatcha want to do.
What's the difference between a California judge and a septic tank?
The tank can be cleaned.
The left keeps this up, they will lose over 50 seats come November.
so how fast can a notice of appeal be filed and how fast can an injuction at the 9th be sought?
Democrats, the party of "gay".
Wow, she's gifted. Wonderfully gifted.
Well dang! I can marry my horse now! Or my pig. The sky's the limit! /s/
Then the outcome was a forgone conclusion. The judge should have rightfully recused the case. The ruling on equal protection and due process? Activist judges need to be impeached and removed.
when elections do not work, revolution is next.
It was fun while it lasted...............
Judge said quote: 'Proposition 8 places the force of law behind stigmas against gays and lesbians'...
Yeah! If boobs were brains, she'd be like....Einstein!
The Ruling Class speaks. You shall obey.
So let me get this straight. I went to the polls..voted Yes on Prop 8, now my vote doesn't even matter. Good to know
That BAD ruling must not stand.
There's a lot of that going around (speaking as an resident of Arizona).
Bush's judge?
Bush's fault.
IOW the federal judge engaged in abuse of discretion.
He allowed his PERSONAL fetish to decide this case.
"A gay man is free to marry a woman, just like a straight man."
...and apparently, a straight man is now free to marry a man, just like a gay man.
I would like to meet the person who can craft a plausible argument about how an animal that cannot sign a contract can enter into one.
Oh baby!
Those are easily 1/2 her total body weight. Just think of the strength of her back muscles. For her to walk upright is something like the bumble bee being able to fly.
Voting in name only in California.
What does it matter how the people vote on anything here?
So now what?
That's it?
Where the hell do we go from here?
Who cares if she has brains?
I say no marriage at all and sex on demand from all beautiful female celebrities
But the girls right behind her seem to have passed.

Politics Closing Gitmo
posted by June 22 at 9:04 AMon
Maybe not.
Sorry, false alarm.
A major meeting was to take place today amongst the president's national security and legal advisers, the AP reported late yesterday; and the closing of Guantanamo Bay detention facility was on the table. And "for the first time, it appears a consensus is developing, senior administration officials said Thursday."
That story broke around 6 PM last night. By 8 PM, the story had changed: there was no meeting, the White House said, and "no decisions on the future of Guantanamo Bay are imminent."
What happened? The Washington Post reports this morning that there really was supposed to be such a meeting. But "two administration officials" say that once word broke about the subject, and the apparent "consensus" that had been developing towards closing the facility, Gitmo was pulled off the table.
And who pulled it off the table? Who do you think?

Hi, at the top of my Dashboard where it has the incoming links section it just says:
"This dashboard widget queries Google Blog Search so that when another blog links to your site it will show up here. It has found no incoming links… yet. It's okay — there is no rush."
The problem is that I know there are incoming links to my site because I have seen them myself.

This paper introduces a novel hardware system structure and systematic digital signal processing algorithms for the automatic localization of an autonomous mobile robot by merging dead-reckoning and ultrasonic measurements. The multisensorial dead-reckoning (DR) subsystem is based on optimal filtering that merges heading readings from a magnetic compass, a rate-gyroscope, and two encoders mounted on the robot wheels to compute the dead-reckoned location estimate. The novel ultrasonic localization subsystem consists of one ultrasonic transmitter and one radio-frequency (RF) controlled switch mounted at a known location fixed to an inertial frame of reference, four ultrasonic receivers, and one RF controlled switch installed on the mobile robot. Four ultrasonic time-of-flight (TOF) measurements together with the dead-reckoned location information are used to update the vehicle's position by utilizing the extended Kalman filtering (EKF) algorithm. The proposed algorithms are implemented using a host PC 586 computer and standard C++ programming techniques. The system prototype together with the experimental results were used to confirm that the system not only retains high accuracy and magnetic interference immunity, but also provides a simple and practical structure for use and installation/calibration

Celebrate the bounty of harvest and feel the excitement of crush!
Crush Kickoff is a celebration over Labor Day weekend (September 5-7th) to launch into the most romantic and exciting period of the wine calendar; the Crush. Come enjoy the beautiful colors as the vines change from green to yellow to brilliant red. Bask in the lush aromas of perfectly ripe fruit and savor the perfect weather that the Gorge offers in the Fall with warm, breezy days and crisp cool nights.
Some wineries will be releasing a new red vintage and sharing thoughts about how the coming vintage compares. Some will be processing the newest vintage right in front of your eyes as you taste through the fruits of previous years' toil. Some wineries will even allow you a sneak peek into the cellar to learn about the crush process, winemaking techniques and what makes their wine so special.
Each winery will have a unique offering over Labor Day weekend for you to enjoy including wine games and prizes, new wine releases, live music, special food pairings and even discounts on wine (scroll down for offerings)!
Contact us at email@example.com with questions or for more information.
Open 12-6pm
Alfresco Tasting in the Vineyard
For those curious to experience the sights, smells, and sensations of harvest, join Analemma for a tasting in the vineyard. A short walk through a grove of cherry trees leads you to a hillside view of the beautiful Mosier Valley, where we welcome you to enjoy a flight of wine alfresco amidst our estate vines. We welcome questions and are eager to share our experience with winegrowing in the Columbia Gorge. The tasting fee is $10 per person. Available Saturday & Sunday 1- 5pm.

Open 12-6pm Saturday & Sunday, 12-4pm Monday
Cork and Bottle famous Lamb Burgers and farm to table fresh salads are being offered with wine pairing on recent releases.
What music is playing in the winery during crush?
Crush plays out a pent-up music war-zone at AniChe Cellars. Whoever has the onerous duty of morning punch downs gets to chose the playlist. Thus, we have the complexities of Wagner and Stravinsky in a cacophony of battle music giving cadence and passion to yeast when Rachael steps into the winery first. Anais choses rootful soul music with sufficient twang and blues progressions and the occasional old-timey chorals to keep the fungus humble. Pulsing bass and syncopated rapping inspire sluggish underperforming yeasts when Talia steps into the winery. All in all, our ferments are treated to an array of music with the intent to illicit complexity and nuance in our finished wines.
Open 11am-6pm
COR will be offering guided tours of our estate vineyard which will culminate in a barrel tasting comparing a couple different vintages of Gorge grown varietals.

Guess how many pounds of grapes we crushed last year from a photograph and if you are within 20% get a free taste of a library wine featuring a unique varietal.
What's the most exciting element of crush at your winery?
It gets pretty exciting at Major Creek when two varietals roll into the winery at once. Suddenly the winemaker is running like the energizer bunny, finding more containers out of nowhere and burning the truck clutch moving trailers of bins into different locations. Once the dust settles everyone gets an extra glass of red as a reward for hanging on.
Upcoming Wine Release
We will be releasing the 2013 edition of our favorite blend Goodness Gracie in September. Gracie is the winery's rescued border collie and like its namesake the wine is spicey, full of life and flavor, and leaves you with a long lasting savory memory in the finish.

Grapes, grapes everywhere and not a drop to drink! Last year's harvest was so full of bounty that the grapes just kept coming off our vineyards.

I am about to purchase a dell laptop with AMD Phenom(TM) II Quad-Core Mobile Processor N930. When I asked which is the equivalent intel processor the reply was i5. Please suggest me if its comparable to the latest processors released by intel or not.

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Its a little like apples and oranges - the AMD seems to benchmark fairly close to a generation 2 core i5(a dual core, we'll come to it later), though not everyone agrees with that, subjectively
I'd suppose in processes that are designed for multithreading, the AMD would have the edge - it has 4 physical cores , for processes that need more power for a single thread, the intel may have the edge - especially since it can overclock individual cores - its dual core with hyperthreading.

Karen Russell chronicles pain of growing up in "Vampires in the Lemon Grove"
In "Reeling for the Empire," one of the eight stories appearing in Karen Russell's "Vampires in the Lemon Grove," a young woman pines for adventure in a rapidly changing 19th-century Japan. Falling for the dubious charms of a "recruitment agent," what she gets instead is a life-draining job in a silk factory.
This being Russell - author of the wildly imaginative "Swamplandia!" as well as an equally inventive prior story collection - a potentially naturalistic tale lands instead in the twilight zone. »Read Full Article

About Debbie DeWitt
My work has evolved as a result of my graphic design training combined with my love of painting and drawing. As a child, I always enjoyed artwork and was in constant need of art supplies. I studied classical painting and drawing at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. There I began a love affair with oil paints. I love the smell and the way they move around the canvas. I also work in pencil, pastels and acrylics.
I studied fine arts at Parsons School of Design in New York City. I changed my course to graphic design believing the digital skills I would acquire would help my career, while my fine arts knowledge would enhance my graphic work.
I painted solely in oils but quickly realized the benefit of fast drying acrylics. At the same time, the shabby chic decor movement was in full swing. I began experimenting with acrylics on plywood. I love the way the plywood responds to the acrylic paint and the texture of the wood is revealed. It also lends itself well to the vintage and aged looks that are desirable now. I love texture in my work and use mediums on canvas as well to create the same dramatic affect.
I began working for an art publisher for the home decor market in 2004 and quickly started having success. My 'Words to Live By' series was picked up by a number of large retailers, including Bed, Bath and Beyond, Homegoods, and Linens & Things and broke many publishing records. I continue to work in this field and have many pieces placed in the retail market.
I also create faux paintings and murals for private homes and businesses. I have been able to bring many of those techniques to my work for the home decor market.

I made extensive use of subcollections in SCCM 2007 and I'm in the process of prototyping our new SCCM 2012 environment which has eliminated subcollections. I was wondering how others have dealt with this issue.
My SCCM 2007 collection hierarchy is four collections deep. Nested at the bottom is a test collection of systems. Each collection has a maintenance window. The test collection and the collection above it, collection 1, have Thursday maintenance windows. Collection 2 has a Friday maintenance window and collection 3, one on Saturday. With this design, I was able to create a single package and advertisement each month, applying it to the test collection on the first week, and after a week's delay moving the same advertisement to the collection above it after a weeks delay. (The week's delay is a testing/proving period required by administration.) And then on successive days, I'd retarget the advertisement to the collection above it on successive days util reaching the top, collection 3. Using the option 'this collection and subcollections', I was able keep these updates available for successive maintenance windows after the advertisement reached the top.
This design seems pretty common, so I was wondering how others are dealing with the flat design of SCCM 2012 and the elimination of the subcollections.
