In Part 1, you learned about the IBM RFID middleware solution, which includes WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure and WebSphere RFID Premises Server. You developed a GPS adapter with the RFID Device Development Kit and ran it on RFID middleware. In Part 2, you'll learn how to define the network topology using the WebSphere RFID Premises Server (hereafter called Premises Server) administrative console, and deploy the application you developed in Part 1 to the WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure with a real GPS device on a PDA.
After completing this article, you'll be able to:
- Configure WebSphere RFID Premises Server and define the RFID solution's network topology using the Premises Server administrative console.
- Deploy code to WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure on a PDA.
- Test the end-to end flow of a data collector on embedded devices, such as PDAs or OBUs (On Board Units) using IBM RFID middleware.
Overview of the scenario
Before starting the second part, review the solution architecture shown in Figure 1. In Part 2, we'll deploy the application that we developed in Part I to the WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure on a Windows ™ Mobile 2003 PDA, which has a GPS device attached to it. The GPS data will be sent to the Premises Server instead of a premises simulator.
Figure 1. Architecture of the sample scenario
Set up your environment
This article assumes that you have completed the steps in Part 1. In addition to the hardware and software requirements for Part I, you'll need the following hardware and software to complete the steps in this article:
Windows Mobile 2003 or Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition PDA with the following:
- Wireless or wired network adapter, which allows the PDA to connect to the network. (The PDA needs a real IP address when running WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure.)
- Bluetooth, which allows the GPS device to connect to the PDA.
- A cradle, which allows you to copy/sync files between the PDA and a PC.
For the Windows Mobile 2003 or Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition PDA:
- A software tool, such as FRANSON GpsGate, to convert the Bluetooth/COM access to TCP/IP, because WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure doesn't support Bluetooth and COM port access on Windows CE. The GPS adapter will use TCP/IP to retrieve the GPS data.
- Windows Mobile ActiveSync to copy files from a PC to the PDA.
Set up Premises Server and an Edge Controller on a PDA
The major steps to building a RFID solution, as described in this article, are as follows. You'll need two desktop machines: one running Premises Server and the other running WebSphere Studio Device Developer (hereafter called Device Developer).
- Install the Premises Server and start the application server by starting the IBM WebSphere Application Server V5 - server1 service. IBM MQSeries and DB2-related services should already be running after the Premises Server is installed.
- Define the network topology, as described in Define the RFID network topology.
- Create a runtime for WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure on the PDA as described in Create a runtime for WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure.
- Deploy the application to the PDA using WSDD, described in Deploy the applications to the PDA with Device Developer.
Define the RFID network topology
The RFID network topology plays an important role in RFID solutions because, like a map, it contains information about the devices in your network. In IBM RFID solutions, the RFID network topology is stored in a configuration database on the Premises Server. The information that's stored in the network topology includes:
- Store IDs for each store location, including dock door IDs. (Here the Store ID is the location ID of the GPS device. This information is important if the Premises Server wants to serve multiple GPS devices on multiple PDAs.)
- Reader IDs and configuration information. (Here the Reader ID is the GPS device ID.)
- Edge Controller IDs and configuration information.
The Edge Controller retrieves this information to set all of the Manager Bundle parameters, including Reader Manager, Controller Manager, and Digital I/O Manager. Before beginning this process, make sure to:
- Get the IP addresses and port numbers of the readers (in our example, readers mean GPS devices) in the network.
- Get the MAC addresses of the Edge Controllers and PDA in the network. (For the purposes of this example, you can ignore this.)
In the following sections, you'll learn how to use the Premises Server administrative console to create and edit the topology definitions. Notice that we treat GPS devices as RFID readers here, so we may use RFID readers and GPS devices interchangeably in this article.
Create the GPS adapter as a new RFID reader type
- To add GpsNmea as a new RFID reader type in the Premises Server, import the SQL commands shown in
Listing 1 into the RFID database. You need to do this because the Premises Server administrative console
doesn't currently provide a user interface for adding new RFID reader types.
In the following steps, you'll add RFID reader types using the SQL commands.
Listing 1.Sample SQL commands to create a new reader type, gps_db2.sql file
INSERT INTO SAGE.READERTYPE VALUES ('GpsNmeaType', '','GpsNmea', 'GpsNmea Reader'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENTS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', 'agent for GpsNmea reader'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_LOCS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'transport.connection', 'com.ibm.esc.tcpip.connection.TcpipConnection'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'GpsNmea.tagtype', '6'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'heartbeat.period.ms', '30000'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'red', '4'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'amber', '99'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'green', '3'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'beep', '99'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'inputpins', 'switch,motion'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'motion', '2'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'switch', '1'); INSERT INTO SAGE.RDR_AGENT_PROPS VALUES ('GpsNmeaReaderAgent', '*', 'io.type', 'reader'); COMMIT ;
- Open a DB2 command window by clicking Start Programs => IBM DB2 => Command Line Tools => Command Window as shown in Figure 2:
Figure 2. Open DB2 command window
- Connect to the RFID database by entering:
db2 connect to IBMRFIDas shown in Figure 3:
Figure 3. Connect to database
- Import the SQL statements by entering
db2 –tvf gps_db2.sql. Place the file in the the c:\dWork directory, as shown in Figure 4:
Figure 4. Import the SQL command
The result of importing the SQL statements is shown in Figure 5:
Figure 5. Result of the SQL import command
- Verify the newly added reader type on the Premises Server administrative console. The default URL for the Premises Server administrative console is:
From the console, select Readers in the left navigation pane. You should see GpsNmeaType listed
as one of the available reader types as shown in Figure 6:
Figure 6. Verify GpsNmeaType in Premises Server administrative console
Define the Edge Controller, location and reader
Now, you're ready to define the RFID network topology. Since you'll deploy the GPS adapter on the PDA, you need to create a location, R2, associated with the PDA, the GPS adapter, also called R2. We'll use the same name for the location and reader (R2) for simplicity've sake, so that we know that location R2 is for reader R2. Each physical reader in the RFID network needs to be assigned to an Edge Controller, so you need to create an Edge Controller and assign the location, R2, and the adapter, R2, to it.
Define the Edge Controller
To create new Edge Controller IDs for the Edge devices in the network, do the following:
- Log in to the Premises Server administrative console.
- In the console, select Controller from the left navigation pane. The Controllers dialog displays as shown in Figure 7:
Figure 7. The Controller dialog
- Click New.
- In the Create New Controller dialog, do the following, as shown in Figure 8:
- In the Controller id field, specify a unique logical identifier for ensuring information is routed to and from the correct Edge Controller.
- In the MAC address field, enter the Edge Controller's MAC address, which is the MAC of the PDA. In this example, we don't care about the real MAC address of the Edge Controller.
- The Alert Threshold field determines the level of information to be included in the Alert log file on the Premises Server. The default setting is error. Setting the alert threshold to info of debug can generate a large amount of traffic, and overload the network.
- Click Create. The new Edge Controller is created and displayed in the Controllers panel. You'll
associate the location and reader with this Edge Controller in a later step.
Figure 8. Create New Controller dialog
Define the location information
To define the store location information for the PDA in this network, do the following:
- Select Location from the left navigation pane.
- In the Locations dialog, select Root Location as shown in Figure 9, to create a store location:
Figure 9. Locations dialog
- In the Edit Locations window, accept the default values and click Create Contained Location as shown in Figure 10:
Figure 10. Edit Locations dialog
- In the Create New Locations dialog, do the following, as shown in Figure 11:
- In the Location Id field, enter
R2as the unique Location ID to identify this store. The Location Id can be an easily recognized name, even if the back-end system requires a more cryptic identifier for the location.
- In the Location Alias field, enter the unique alias name of the location,
These fields are logical identifiers that ensure that the GPS data from a particular location is properly routed from the Edge Controller through the Premises Server to the enterprise system. Note that aliases are typically used if the enterprise system to which the Premises Server is passing data requires an identifier other than the one used in the Location Id field.
- In the Location Id field, enter
- Click Create to create the new location.
Figure 11. The Create new Location dialog
The newly created store location, R2, is listed in the Locations dialog as shown in Figure 12:
Figure 12. Locations with new location R2
Define the RFID reader in the network
Since you'll be deploying the GPS adapter on the PDA later, you need to define the PDA as an RFID reader in this network. To define the reader, do the following:
- Select Readers from the left pane, then click New, as shown in Figure 13:
Figure 13. Readers dialog
In the Create a New Reader dialog, do the following, as shown in Figure 14:
- In the Reader Id field, specify a unique ID to identify your PDA.
- In the Reader Type field, select GpsNmeaType.
- In the Reader IP address and Reader IP port number fields, specify the reader's IP address and port number that the GPS device outputs the location data on the PDA. Since the GPS device is running on the PDA, the IP address should be the IP address of the PDA. The GPS adapter you created will connect to the IP and port later.
- Click Create.
Figure 14. Create a new Reader dialog
Figure 15. The Reader dialog showing the new reader R2
Associate the location and the reader with the Edge Controller
Next, you need to associate the location and the reader with an Edge Controller, by doing the following:
- Select Controller from the left pane.
- In the Controllers dialog, select the controller ID E2 that you created previously, as shown in Figure 16:
Figure 16. Select the Controller ID
- In the Edit Controller Details dialog, do the following, as shown in Figure 17:
- Select R2 from the Available Locations list and click the right arrow. R2 will display in the Selected Locations list.
- Select R2 from the Available Readers list and click the right arrow. R2 will display in the Selected Readers list.
- Click Update to update the Edge Controller configuration database.
Figure 17. Edit Controller Details
Update the filter agent setting
In order for the GPS adapter to work properly, you need to modify the filter agent setting, because you only load the CaseTags filter agent when deploying the applications. (Refer to RfidIbmTutorialReaderSimulatorLoader project => com.ibm.esc.rfid.ibm.tutorial.reader.simulation.loader.bundle package => Activator.java for more details.)
To access and modify the agent properties, do the following:
- Select Agent configuration from the left pane.
- In the Edit Agent Properties dialog, do the following, as shown in Figure 18:
- In the Reader Agent field, select FilterAgent.
- In the Agent Propertyfield, select filters.
- In the Property Value, specify
- Click Update to store the changes to the configuration database.
Figure 18. Modify the FilterAgent properties
Verify the network topology configuration data
At this point, you should verify the Edge Controller configurations. To do this,
check whether you can obtain valid XML when browsing to the following URL:
where <hostname> is the Premises Server DNS name and <EdgeID> is the ID of the Edge Controller you created. In our case, the URL should look like: http://188.8.131.52:9080/event_admin_web/premises.sl?action=getconfig&edge=E2. The content of the XML file is similar to edge-configuration-E2.xml used in Part I. You can see that GpsNmeaReaderAgent is shown as one of the reader agents. The XML also contains the IP address and port to receive the GPS data as shown in Figure 19:
Figure 19. Contents of edge-configuration-E2.xml
Run the Service Management Framework (SMF) on the Premises Server
To view the logs shown on the console of the SMF on the Premises Server, you need to stop the Windows IBM SMF Service and start the SMF. To do this:
- Open a command prompt and execute smf.bat in the directory <RFID_HOME>\edgecontroller\premises\smf to
start the SMF service. Press Enter twice. The SMF prompt is displayed as shown in Figure 20:
Figure 20. Run SMF
- From the SMF command prompt in the window where you started SMF,
ssto list the installed bundles as shown in Figure 21. Note that the status of the KimonoPremisesTest bundle is RESOLVED. This bundle is a test program that listens to the MQ queue (CNTROL.OUT.QUEUE), which stores all the data sent from the Edge Controller. It retrieves the data from the queue and then prints it out to the SMF console. You need to start this bundle to verify whether the GPS data is being sent to MQ correctly. In a real solution, you could not start the bundle. Instead, you would need to write a program, such as a Message-Driven Bean (MDB) run on WebSphere Application Server, to retrieve the data from CONTROL.OUT.QUEUE. Before starting the KimonoPremisesTest bundle, you need to revise its property file, <RFID_HOME>\edgecontroller\premises\smf \premises-test.properties to comment out the two lines shown in Listing 2:
Listing 2. Modify premises-test.properties
#################################################################################### # # Properties for Activator.java # # To disable a particular component in its entirety, comment out the # appropriate line. # #################################################################################### premises.test.factory.class.0=test.com.ibm.kimono.premises. event.handler.EventHandlerFactory #[[[developerWorks part II]]] premises.test.factory.class.1=test. com.ibm.kimono.premises.command.CommandFactory #[[[developerWorks part II]]] premises.test.factory.class.2=test.com.ibm.kimono. premises.event.simulator.EventSimulatorFactory
- Start the KimonoPremisesTest bundle by typing
start 25, as shown in Figure 21:
Figure 21. Start the KimonoPremisesTest bundle service
- From the SMF command prompt in the window where you started SMF, type
ssto list the installed bundles. This time, you should see that The KimonoPremisesTest bundle service (bundle service 25) status is now ACTIVE as shown in Figure 22:
Figure 22. List the bundle service status in the SMF shell
Create a runtime for WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure
In this section, you'll create a WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure runtime, then deploy and run it on a Windows Mobile 2003 PDA using WebSphere Studio Device Developer (hereafter called Device Developer).
To create a runtime by using the Device Developer platform builder, do the following:
- From the workbench, select File => New => Other.
- In the Select dialog, select Extension Services on the left, Platform Builder on the right, and then click Next,
as shown in Figure 23:
Figure 23. Create a new platform builder project
- In the New Platform Builder Project dialog, enter
WM2003Edgeas the Project name and click Next, as shown in Figure 24:
Figure 24. Create a new platform builder project
- The Platform Options dialog defines the primary characteristics of the Platform Builder project.
It contains sections dealing with the project's device, JVM and build output options.
Specify the device type and set package output location as shown in Figure 25:
- For Device Type, select PocketPC, which is suitable for Windows Mobile 2003 PDA.
- Check Default target root.
- Enter
c:\as the Output location. (Or, choose another output location, if desired.)
- Click Next.
Figure 25. Platform options
- In the J9 Options dialog, specify the characteristics of the J9 Java ™ Virtual Machine (JVM) as shown in Figure 26:
- Select jclFoundation for J9 class library.
- Select JAR for Set Package format.
- Click Next.
Figure 26. J9 options
- In the Startup Options dialog, do the following:
- Check Console support to include the SMF console in the target platform.
- Check Bundle Developer support to allow Device Developer to connect to the target platform runtime.
- Specify a Port. For our example, you can use the default port of 1457.
- Specify the Bundle Server address and Port to allow the target platform to communicate with an SMF bundle server. Here, the bundle server will run on the Device Developer machine, so enter its IP and bundle server default port (8080).
- Click Next.
Figure 27. Start-up options
- In the Languages dialog, select the languages that the target platform will support. For this example, select English, then click Next, as
shown in Figure 28:
Figure 28. Select languages
- Since we aren't going to add any custom bundles in this exercise, click Next in the Custom Bundles dialog, and then in the System Bundles dialog.
- In the Summary dialog, you'll see a summary of all the target plaform options you selected.
Make sure that Build platform is checked and click Finish, as shown in Figure 29:
Figure 29. Summary
- When the build is complete, you'll see BUILD SUCCESSFUL in the console window, as showin in Figure 30:
Figure 30. The console log for generating the platform package
- Verify that the target platform package is placed in the output directory you specified. The file name of the target platform is platform.zip.
In this case, set the output location to directory c:\ as shown in Figure 31:
Figure 31. Location of platform package files
Deploy the platform package to the PDA
Before copying the platform package file to the PDA, make the following changes:
- Unzip the platform.zip file. You'll see two directories: smf and jvm.
- Modify the /smf/StartSMF.lnk file to add
-noverify -Xintas shown in Listing 3. (Originally, we planned to add
-noverify -Xint -Dpremises.ip=18.104.22.168:9080 -Dedge.id=E2, but the length of the Windows Mobile 2003 .lnk file can't be over 256 characters. Therefore, we decided to move
-Dpremises.ip=22.214.171.124:9080 -Dedge.id=E2to a property file, premisesXML.property, as described in Update the code.
Listing 3. The /smf/StartSMF.lnk file
17#"\jvm\bin\j9.exe" -jcl:foun10 -Xalwaysclassgc -Xgc:stringconstantGC -noverify -Xint -cp "\smf;\smf\smf.jar;\smf\smfconsole.jar;\smf\smfbd.jar" -Dcom.ibm.osg.smf.properties=\smf\smf.properties com.ibm.osg.smf.SMFLauncher -con -ide:1457 "launch"
- Use ActiveSync to copy both the jvm and smf directories to the PDA root directory. Since we checked Default target root previously, make sure to copy to the root directory of the PDA. If you copied to other directories, the SMF won't be started.
Run the Service Management Framework on the PDA
Before you start the SMF on the PDA, do the following:
- Make sure the PDA WLAN/LAN is working properly.
- Make sure that the Bluetooth GPS is connected to the PDA.
- Because we expect the client to access GPS via TCP/IP, make sure you have a tool to, such as Franson GpsGate to convert the Bluetooth interface to a TCP/IP service. Make sure that you can access the GPS location data via TCP/IP.
- From Windows Explorer, start SMF by clicking StartSMF.lnk in the /smf directory. The runtime should be launched successfully as shown in Figure 32:
Figure 32. Runtime is launched
Develop and deploy the application to the PDA with Device Developer
In this section, you'll make necessary code changes and then deploy the application to the PDA.
Update the code
- Start Device Developer and select the workspace used in Part I (C:\IBM\wsdd571\workspace\gps), as seen in Figure 33:
Figure 33. Select a workspace
- Select RfidIbmTutorialReaderSimulatorLoader project => com.ibm.esc.rfid.ibm.tutorial.reader.simulation.loader.bundle package => Activator.java.
Comment out KimonoSwitchAgent and KimonoMotionSensorAgent as shown in Listing 4, so that you can start to retrieve
GPS data once the GpsNmeaReaderAgent is started, rather than
relying on the switch and motion sensor to trigger the GpsNmeaReaderAgent to start retrieving the GPS data:
Listing 4. Comment out switch and motion sensor
//developerWorks Part II Don't need Switch "KimonoSwitchAgent", //$NON-NLS-1$ //developerWorks Part II Don't need Motion Sensor "KimonoMotionSensorAgent", //$NON-NLS-1$
- Select GpsNmeaReaderAgent project => com.ibm.gps.nmea.gpsnmea.readeragent package => GpsNmeaReaderAgent.java.
In this file, you need to make some changes to the original code.
tutorialTransport.setConnection(tutorialTransport.getDefaultConnection());creates the connection to the GPS device through the IP and port that are defined in the CML file (RfidIbmTutorialReaderDevice.cml). However, in this case, we want to use the IP and port specified in the configuration XML downloaded from the Premises Server, so that we can easily use the Premises Server administrative console to change the IP and port of the GPS device. Therefore, we'll use
tutorialTransport.setConnection(buildDefaultTcpipConnection((EscObject) readerDevice));instead.
Listing 5. Change connection method
protected DeviceService createDevice() { LogUtility.logInfo(this,"createDevice()"); ConnectionService connection; DeviceService readerDevice = new RfidIbmTutorialReaderDevice(); // Here RfidIbmTutorialReaderTransport tutorialTransport = new RfidIbmTutorialReader Transport(); // Here //Get the connection type (TCPIP or COM) from the //edge-configuration-E1.xml downloaded from the //premises server or premises simulator. We will use TCPIP. String connectionType = getProperty(GpsNmeaReaderAgentConstants. GPSNMEA_CONNECTION_TYPE); //Although we define the host and remoteport in the transport CML file, //we will use the host and port defined in edge-configuration-E1.xml. //Part II fixed part I bug //tutorialTransport.setConnection(tutorialTransport.getDefaultConnection()); // dWork //Part II added tutorialTransport.setConnection(buildDefaultTcpipConnection((EscObject) readerDevice)); readerDevice.setTransport(tutorialTransport); tutorialTransport.start(); return readerDevice; }
- Select KimonoEdgeConfiguration project => com.ibm.kimono.edge.configuration package > EdgeConfiguration.java.
Move the Premises IP and Edge ID configurations from VM arguments to a property file, premisesXML.properties,
because of the 256-character command line length limitation of Windows Mobile 2003.
protected boolean doConfigurationWork() throws InterruptedException { try { Configuration config = configAdmin.getConfiguration (SystemConstants.EDGE_CONFIG_ADMIN_PID); Dictionary properties = config.getProperties() //developerWorks part II added start... //Read the Premises Server IP and edge ID from premisesXML.properties //because startSMF.lnk file in Windows Mobile 2003 restricts the max //number of characters to 256. //If we add -Dpremises.ip=172.16.136.193 -Dedge.id=E1 as the j9 arguments, //it will exceed 256 characters, so we move the premises server IP and //edge server id to premisesXML.properties. try{ ResourceBundle rs= ResourceBundle.getBundle ("com.ibm.kimono.edge.configuration.premisesXML"); String ip = rs.getString("premises.ip"); String edge = rs.getString("edge.id"); System.out.println("---------------------Get Premises Server IP & Edge ID from premisesXML.properties---------------------"); System.out.println("---------------------Get Premises Server IP= "+ip+"---------------------"); System.out.println("---------------------Get Edge ID= "+edge+"---------------------"); if(ip != null){ if (properties==null) { properties = new Properties(); } properties.put(SystemConstants.PREMISES_IP_ADDRESS_PROPERTY, ip); } if (edge != null){ if (properties==null) { properties = new Properties(); } properties.put(SystemConstants.EDGE_ID_PROPERTY,edge); } } catch (Exception e){ e.printStackTrace(); } //developerWorks part II added end … … …
- Select KimonoEdgeConfiguration project => com.ibm.kimono.edge.configuration package => premisesXML.properties..
If your Premises Server does not run on HTTP port 80, add the port number to
premises.ip. In our example, the Premises Server is running on port 9080.
Listing 7. Add port number to premises.ip
premises.ip=188.8.131.52:9080 edge.id=E2
- Select KimonoControllerAgent project => com.ibm.kimono.controlleragent package => ControllerAgent.java.
Since we don't run the light tree in our application,
comment out the code used to publish light tree controlling commands.
Otherwise, many light tree controlling commands might be in the MicroBroker, which could cause memory leak problems.
Listing 8. Comment out light tree controlling commands
private void handleTopicPalletFeedback(String topic, Object data) { String value = (String) data; if (ControllerAgentConstants.PALLET_FEEDBACK_ACCEPTED.equals(value)) { //Part II: We don't have light tree so don't need to publish the data to //control light tree. //doPublishWithLogging(lightAcceptedTopic, SystemConstants.ON); LogUtility.logInfo(this, "Tag Accepted."); //$NON-NLS-1$ } else if (ControllerAgentConstants.PALLET_FEEDBACK_REJECTED.equals(value)) { //Part II: We don't have light tree so don't need to publish the data to //control light tree. //doPublishWithLogging(lightRejectedTopic, SystemConstants.ON); LogUtility.logInfo(this, "Tag Rejected."); //$NON-NLS-1$ } else { throw new RuntimeException("unhandled value"); //$NON-NLS-1$ } }
- Select RfidIbmTutorialReaderDevice project => RfidIbmTutorialReaderDeviceDevelopment folder => RfidIbmTutorialReaderDevice.cml.
Remove the
type="numericstring"attribute of the
parametertag in the CML. The reason for this is that the GPS device sometimes returns empty data fields for each NMEA ASCII response. If you don't remove these attributes, you may receive some Java exceptions (NumberFormatException).
- Regenerate the Java code using the revised RfidIbmTutorialReaderDevice.cml, by right-clicking
RfidIbmTutorialReaderDevice.cml, then selecting Device Kit => Generate, as shown in Figure 34:
Figure 34. Generate the Java code for RfibmTutorialReaderDevice.cml
Start the SMF bundle server
- Select Run => Run.
- In the Run dialog, expand SMF Bundle Server in the left navigation, select SMF Bundle Server.
- Accept the defaults and click Run, as shown in Figure 35:
Figure 35. Run the SMF bundle server
Submit the bundles to the SMF bundle server
Now you need to submit the bundles containing the revised files to the SMF bundle server, by doing the following:
- Right-click GpsNmeaReaderAgent in the Package Explorer view of the SMF perspective, then select SMF => Submit Bundle,
as shown in Figure 36:
Figure 36. Submit bundles to the bundle server
- In the Target Submission dialog, check Submit Jar, select
Admin@localhost:8080/smf, check Replace Bundles, then click Finish as shown in Figure 37:
Figure 37. Submit bundles
- Repeat steps 1-3 for the KimonoControllerAgent, KimonoEdgeConfiguration, RfidIbmTutorialReaderDevice, and RfidIbmTutorialReaderSimulationLoader projects.
Deploy the bundles to the Windows Mobile 2003 PDA
Use Device Developer to deploy all the necessary bundles to the SMF runtime on the PDA. Before starting the deployment, make sure that:
- The PDA can connect to the network and get an IP address. Check this by pinging the PDA from Device Developer machine.
- The Bluetooth GPS device can connect to the PDA.
- The tool that converts the Bluetooth GPS to TCP/IP (such as GpsGate 2.0) can run on the PDA, so that GpsNmeaDeviceAgent can get the GPS data when connecting to the TCP port.
- The SMF runtime on the PDA is running.
Once you've verified all of the above, deploy the bundles to the PDA SMF runtime by doing the following:
- In Device Developer, select Run => Run.
- In the Run dialog, right-click Remote SMF Runtime and select New, as shown in Figure 38:
Figure 38. New remote SMF runtime
- A remote SMF runtime is created under Remote SMF Runtime in the left pane. Enter the IP address for the PDA in the Host name field.
Leave the port as 1457, then click Run, as shown in Figure 39:
Figure 39. Run remote SMF runtime connecting to the PDA SMF runtime
Device Developer connects to the PDA SMF runtime as shown in Figure 40:
Figure 40. Device Developer connects to a remote SMF runtime on the PDA
- Switch to the SMF Bundle Servers view by clicking the SMF Bundle Servers tab at the bottom of the left pane, as shown in Figure 41.
- Expand the Bundle Server tree, right-click on RFID_IBM_TUTORIAL_READER_SIMULATION_LOADER,
and select Install.
Figure 41. Install SMF bundles to the PDA SMF runtime
- After all the bundles are deployed to the PDA SMF runtime, you'll see the GPS data on the PDA screen.
You'll also see that the GPS data has already been sent to the Premises Server and idumped on the SMF console as shown in Figure 42:
Figure 42. GPS data sent to the Premises Server and dumped on the SMF console
In this series, we've shown you how to develop an end-to-end GPS data collector solution using IBM RFID middleware. First, you learned how to create a device adapter on WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure using the RFID Device Development Kit and test it with simulators. Next, you learned how to define the network topology (the WebSphere RFID Device Infrastructure configurations) using the Premises Server administrative console. Finally, you learned how to build a runtime platform for a device adapter and deploy it to a PDA. As you could see in the GPS adapter example, the GPS adapter was able to continually retrieve location data from the GPS device on the PDA, and send the collected data to the Premises Server seamlessly with the WebSphere MicroBroker.
As mentioned in Part I, you could also deploy the sample code to On Board Units (OBUs) to interact with GPS devices in cars or trucks, and then send the location information back to a data center. You can also use the concepts and process we used here to develop device adapters and agents for any sensors that could be deployed to OBUs, such as temperature sensors, RFID readers, anti-theft sensors, and so on. IBM RFID middleware makes it easy to develop complex data collection solutions.

LA Media Reform Summit 2011
Are you tired of the grip the right has on talk radio and Fox? Are you interested in being a part of the growing movement to take away the rightwing's dominance of the airwaves?

LA Media Reform Group Seeks Workshop Presenters
The Los Angeles Media Reform Group encourages community activists and grassroots media makers to present their ideas at its fourth annual LA Media Reform "Just Media" Summit, scheduled for Saturday, February 26, 2011, at Occidental College.
Markos Calls Out Right-Wing Extremists
Sylvia Moore: The U.S. is going through such a shock right now. Moulitsas is correct when he says that we can't be polite to or negotiate with extremists, no matter where they reside, in the Middle East or in America.
Markos Moulitsas Speaking in LA September 22nd
Markos Moulitsas, a driving force in new media and founder of The Daily Kos, will speak and sign his ground-breaking book at a FREE reading SEPTEMBER 22 to support the LA Media Reform Group's annual media summit.
Net Neutrality Supporters Visit Rep. Henry Waxman
Sylvia Moore: It's terrific that Waxman remains on the right side of this issue. For those of us hoping that he would use his position to make net neutrality a higher priority in the House, we were disappointed.
LA Progressive: August 15 to 21, 2010 — Articles
Articles by Sharon Kyle, Ed Rampell, Marian Wang, Joseph Palermo, Rev. Irene Monroe, John Peeler, Randy Shaw, Shamus Cooke, Andrea Nill, Steve Hochstadt, Mike Price, Tanya Acker, Ron Wolff, Norman Solomon, Robert Reich, H. Scott Prosterman, Tina Dupuy, Sylvia Moore, Lucia Brawley, Berry Craig, Ivan Eland, Sherwood Ross, Jasmyne Cannick, Peter Dreier and Donald Cohen, Seth Hoy, Linda Milazzo
John Amato, Crooks & Liars Founder Speaks in LA
John Amato Speaking at LA Media Reform Fundraiser in Beverly Hills on July 16: In Over the Cliff: How Obama's Election Drove the American Right Insane, John Amato and coauthor David Neiwert show that the Tea Party "movement" was not the organic uprising it was made to appear, but rather was kick-started by FOX News and follows in a long tradition of movement conservative activism that harkens back to the street theater days of Jack Abramoff, Ralph Reed, and Grover Norquist.
"Preserving Democracy" Theme of LA Media Event This Saturday
Please join the LA Media Reform Group, California Common Cause, and the Urban & Environmental Policy Institute on March 27, 2010, at Occidental College for our third annual summit. Given the recent Supreme Court decision, the changing media landscape, and the importance of the upcoming election cycle, we've decided to make this year's theme, "Preserving Democracy."

"Narration annoying at times, but an OK story"
Yes, I'd buy another book by this author. I didn't find the coffee info over the top or anything. The points where the narrator did different "dialects" and cat noises drove me nuts, however. I did like the chemistry between the heroine and the cop.
Drink more coffee.
"Opinionated Barrista = Fun Character"
I got a kick out of this book, and thought it was well written. I understand that some other readers didn't like all the coffee descriptions, but for me it was a major part of the main character's personality as well as important in the place setting. Even though I am not a coffee drinker, I can appreciate someone else's enthusiasm for their specialty. I found it lively and fun.
Happy to read mysteries, like the action too!
"Coffee & Murder - Who Knew? Great series!"
Since I have not had the oppertunity to read the hardcopy, I can not answer this but It's a fun listen.
It's a fast paced plot that kept me moving forward through the book and makes me want to listen to another.
I like that she is able to manifest so many different voices, women's and men's.
I can't say any particular one but I liked all the twists and turns this book took.
This is my third listen in her Coffeehouse series & I continue to keep buying/listening. =)
Like History, Business and Self-Improvement books. 32 year US Army veteran.
"Good Coffee Knowledge"
It ranks very high, love all the coffee info. My husband and I are coffee snobs,so we have learned a lot from Claire
All the books by Diane Mott Davidson-her character is a caterer and she gives recipes and talks a lot about food and she also drinks an espresso to help her think, wake up and concentrate.
When Claire makes the first espresso/latte and explains all that goes into the making, especially the amount of time for the grinding of beans, the time for the heating of the water, etc.
Everything you ever wanted to know about coffee and more...
My husband and I are glued to my MP3 at the dinner table listening to several chapters during dinner. We stop and discuss something that a character says or analyze where we think the story is going. We have found a new author to add to our collection of books we listen to on road trips as well.
"Delightful. Love this series!"
A great story and narration. I've listened to almost all the series.
More of a cozy mystery than a mystery --by the seat of your pants---mystery.
Yep. Almost all of the series is narrated by Ms. Gibel. She does a fine job.
"Brewed to Perfection!"
I have no idea as I do not have the printed version.
Yes & No. I read & watch movies on a very high scale - so it takes a great deal for a plot to suprise me. I was not disappointed in anyway.
I don't give teasers or clues = sorry.
Again - a series I am pleased with to date, and purchasing the next in line!
As a solid coffee addict, it just doesn't taste any better!
"Weak Brew"
It was ok. The first time I read it I had to put it down because it was boring and I couldn't get into it. The second time I picked it up, it was a little better. The characters and plotline seemed a little more interesting. I really can't say much about the book because there isn't much to say. I won't be buying the rest in the series.
"Good clean murder mystery"
I enjoyed the story. I learned a lot about coffe and craved it all the time while I listened to this book. I did not like the introduction of the ex husband into the plot. That just felt awkward. But I loved all the rest. Rebecca Gibel did a nice job narrating. She wasn't the greatest at male voices, but I guess that's hard to pull off when you're a woman. I do think it's a mistake narrators typically make. Women try to over-narrate men (by making them sound kind of dumb) and men try to use high pitched voices that make female characters sound like cartoons. It wasn't the worst male-voice impression I've ever heard. In fact, Gibell is one of the better narrators.
"Way too much coffee."
The mystery part of this was good, very good. The coffee addiction is out of hand. I stopped listening twice because I just couldn't stand another cup of coffee as a metaphor for life. The worship of coffee became a little annoying. The story was worth slogging through all those wet grounds though.

The Musical
By Rice/Andrew Lloyd Webber
Concert band - Grade 4
The Musical. Composed by Rice/Andrew Lloyd Webber. Arranged by Marcel Peeters. Catalogue Movie and Musical. Movie and Musical. Recorded on Teabreak (ML.311053720). Score only. Duration 13 minutes, 55 seconds. Published by Molenaar Edition (ML.012444100-S).
Item Number: ML.012444100-S
The musical 'Evita' dates from 1976 and was the third whom composer Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote in collaboration with lyricist Tim Rice. It ran for eight consecutive years in the London West-End and was already acclaimed on Broadway in 1979. Evita' tells the lifestory of the passionate second wife of the Argentinian dictator Juan Peron. Eva Duarte was born in Los Todos in 1919. Her life was similar to that of Cinderella. Though from modest origins, she became the most powerful woman in her country as spouse of Juan Domingo Peron who was president of Argentina from 1946 to 1955. She died of cancer on 26 July 1952, only aged thirty-three and was buried as a national heroine. Even after her death, she was the object of a lay cult with the poorer Argentinian population. Only the army and the aristocracy had always opposed her position next to the president. The story is told by a cynical young man called 'Che'. He envies Evita's success while he cannot sell his invention, a new kind of insecticide. The splendid selection was made and arranged by Marcel Peeters. You hear succesively: 'Overture', 'On this Night of a Thousand Stars', 'Eva beware of the City', 'Buenos-Aires', 'Goodnight and thank You', 'I'd be surprisingly Good for You', 'Another Suitcase in another Hall', 'Waltz for Eva and Che', and the evergreen 'Don't cry for me Argentina'.

This was our 3rd cruise. The 1st was on Holland America out of Fort Lauderdale to W. Caribbean. The 2nd was with family on Carnival out of Galveston, also to W. Caribbean.
We live in Houston so we wanted to take the Princess out of the new port. The port was easy to get to and had convenient parking. Because we had a suite we had priority boarding. It was easy for us.
The ship was nice. The crew was nice and accommodating. Our cabin steward was eager to please.
The food was a little disappointing. To me the buffet was not organized well. Main dishes here and there. Desserts here and there. You fill your plate only to come upon something at a different spot that you would've rather had. There was some very tasty food but overall the taste and quality was disappointing.
The Palm Dining room was lovely. The servers were very helpful. But once again the taste of the food was just so-so. The dining experience was on the dull side. Both HAL and Carnival had a more enjoyable atmosphere. I apologize for not knowing his title but there was a gentleman with a lovely voice that walked around the dining room and serenaded some nights. That was enjoyable. Sabatini Restaurant was good but I don't think you should have to pay extra for good food.
The entertainment was good. We looked forward to it each night.
The gastrointestinal virus broke out early on the cruise. We did not get sick nor did we see anyone that was sick. We felt that the ship did a good job cleaning and had sanitary precautions in place. The only thing I would've differently is have hand sanitizers available in more places other than eating areas and bathrooms. The elevators and outside the auditoriums are a couple of places that would be useful.
We had to return to port before we got to Belize because of a forecast of fog at the Texas Coast. This is something to consider when choosing to go out of Houston. Princess gave us 1 day credit. It could be taken off your bill or it had to be used on the ship. They also gave us a small future cruise credit.
Even though the trip wasn't perfect, it is what you make of it. We chose to make the best of it by joining in activities and relaxing in the sun.
Once again we had an easy priority disembarkation.
Since we'd sailed with HAL and Carnival our travel agent told us that Princess was probably ranked in between the two. Overall, we didn't think it was as good as the Carnival we sailed on.
Very fun and interesting trip exploring a cave. They fit you with wetsuits as the water is cold. You wade and swim through this cave. Lunch afterward was good.
Something different to do but where they took us, the coral was not pretty. We didn't see many fish. It's difficult to see below. I spent most of my time trying to stay up with the group as mine was slower. We then snorkeled giving the other group their turn with the scooters. The snorkeling was the best part of the trip.

Managed Procurement
Managed Procurement Workstream
Our community has identified the need for better management of purchasing goods and services as a key driver of future cost savings for the School. We anticipate that a more effective procurement process will result in significant cost savings to the School while streamlining the process for the community. To support this initiative, we are seeking an individual to serve as the director of strategic procurement at HMS. This individual will lead an office accountable for working with our community to develop procurement strategies that will ensure access to the goods and services we need to support our activities, and to establish and leverage existing relationships with suppliers that allow us to obtain the most competitive price for those goods we require.
One key component of this initiative is the development of a preferred office supply list to help guide and streamline purchases.

1. The last meals of executed innocent men.
This campaign is via Amnesty International in Puerto Rico.
The starkness of the photography — including the standard issue prison food trays — makes for ads you cannot look away from.
Photography by: James Reynolds.
Here's three more of the ads from the anti-capital punishment effort.
2. It's true. And sad.
Great artwork and logo use in these ads via the UK.
Stoning, above.
Waterboarding, below.
5. 2008 ad via AI Belgium.
6. Brand new ad via the UK.
7. Simple art direction. Dead-on messaging. Via Puerto Rico.
8. Via Portugal. "He's done nothing. He's just showing Amnesty's phone number."
9. Amnesty was there and waiting in Amsterdam for a recent Vladimir Putin visit.
Very timely campaign via Turkey.
The translation is a little off, but you get the idea:
Your words can have power.
Second ad below.
12. Amazing piece of anti-war animation by Leo Burnett, Portugal. Us humans are real good at killing, ain't we?
13. Another cool piece of animation by TBWA Paris — death to the death penalty.
14. Via Argentina. Old style artwork is used to make a point.
Brutal campaign via AI France.
Copy line: "300,000 child soldiers dream of simply being children."
Second ad below.
"Every Signature Makes It Harder"
New campaign via Qatar.
See two more of the ads here.
18. TV spot, via AI Canada, ahead of a scheduled massive write-in day.
19. Via AI Germany, from 2012.
Just to lighten the mood for a second, here's an AI ad via the Czech Republic celebrating the organization's 50th anniversary.
Powerful anti-China Campaign from 2008 that ran just ahead of the Beijing Summer Olympics.
Second ad below.
23. Another pre-Beijing Olympics ad via Hungary.
24. An anti-Russia ad via AI France turns a Matryoshka doll into a bullet.
Lastly, here's a very realistic anti-torture video via the UK from 2007.
The torture interrogation techniques dramatized are "Stress Position" and "Belly Slap." How it works is, if the prisoner relaxes or falls from his position on the rickety cardboard boxes, he gets beaten. Detainees released from Guantanamo have reported use of the technique—and that the beatings were more severe than open-handed strikes to the abdomen.
- One person died and more than 100 others were injured after a commuter train crashed into a New Jersey Transit station in Hoboken.
- Fans of Donald Trump say Bill Clinton's past indiscretions are fair game at the next debate.
- Asos workers at the heart of its global retail empire say they're being treated like machines to deliver fast fashion.

Lenovo IdeaTab A8-50 A5500
Average of 2 scores (from 4 reviews)
Reviews for the Lenovo IdeaTab A8-50 A5500
Source: Review Zat
Lenovo A8 A5500 is a midrange tablet with economical price, and it provides good performance with its good screen. However you might face some issues when it comes to multitasking or launching heavy apps, and also the battery life might be a disadvantage as well.
Single Review, online available, Very Short, Date: 02/01/2015
Rating: Total score: 60%
Source: Think Computers
Lenovo's A-Series tablets are entry-level, but for many people they are just what they need. Today we took a look at the Tab A8 which features a Mediatek 1.3 GHz quad-core SoC, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage and runs Android 4.4.2. This combination works very well for most applications, typical games, productivity and more.

Positive: Affordable price; good sound system; decent performance. Negative: Relatively low resolution display.
Single Review, online available, Medium, Date: 07/07/2014
The Lenovo IdeaTab A8-50 A5500 further reduces the gap between tablets and phones by introducing a tablet with 3G and a micro sim slot. It doesn't have 4G LTE, unfortunately. The 8 inch tablet has a resolution of 800 by 1280 pixels, which gives a very low pixel density of 189 ppi. On the bright side, the low quality screen reduces battery consumption giving more battery life to last the day.
The Lenovo IdeaTab A8-50 A5500 features a quad core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 processor, which is not too bad. With 1 GB of RAM, the device is able to provide smooth usage for casual users. Those who demand more from their device might not be fully satisfied. It comes with up to 16 GB of native memory, which can be further upgraded with an external micro SD card. WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 is fully supported. It has a 4200 mAh battery, which will keep your device powered up for most of the day. Unfortunately, the battery cannot be removed.
In short, the Lenovo IdeaTab A8-50 A5500 might not have the best screen out there, but it has solid hardware and software. Buyers who want to try something aside from the usual brands can try out Lenovo IdeaTab A8-50 A5500.

This display size is a threshold between tablets and smartphones. Most tablets have larger screen diagonals but a lot of smartphones offer such a big screen.
Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.

Physical Description
Ocellated turkeys are similar in appearance to North American wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), but are lighter in weight and more brilliantly colored. Males weigh about 4.5 kg and are roughly 0.9 m in length. Females weigh about 2.7 kg.
The body feathers of ocellated turkeys are an iridescent bronze-green color, with those of the male being brighter than the female. The tail feathers are bluish-gray with blue-bronze eye spots on the ends, which give this bird its name, as oculus is Latin for eye. The tail feathers also have a bright gold tip.
The skin of the head and neck lacks feathers, is bright blue, and is scattered with orange-red nodules or "warts". Around the eye is a bright red ring of skin. Males have a blue fleshy crown on their heads with yellow-orange warts. During the breeding season, the crown enlarges and the eye-ring and warts become more visible in males. Legs are a dark red color in both sexes, but adult males have spurs measuring around 3.8 cm in length.
Average mass: males 4.5 and females 2.7 kg.
Average length: 0.9 m.

High Five!: Baritone B.C.
Baritone B.C.
By Steve Hodges
Concert Band
Baritone B.C.. Composed by Steve Hodges. Instructional. Part. 1 pages. Published by Alfred Music - Digital Sheet Music (AX.00-PC-0001403_BBC1).
Item Number: AX.00-PC-0001403_BBC1
Looking for some music to get the audience more involved in your concert? Here it is! A medium-rock groove sets the stage for an eighth-note motive that signals the band and audience to give "high fives" throughout the piece. Soloists on the flute, saxophone, trumpet, trombone and clarinet are featured on two-measure phrases that lead to an exciting "drum-off" between the snare and tom players. Band members and directors are encouraged to use their creativity in the solo section as well as in giving "high fives" to each other and to the audience. A really fun piece! (3:05)

EMA - Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP)*
10-13 December- Outcome by 13th or 14th
FDA approval on 21st Jan 2013
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Title Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP): 10-13 December 2012
Location European Medicines Agency, London, UK
Summary The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) is the committee that is responsible for preparing the Agency's opinions on all questions concerning human medicines. It does not currently publish the minutes or agendas of its meetings. It does publish highlights after each meeting.
ISIS should receive European approval by year end. Remember this application addresses larger markets as they are seeking approval to treat both HoFN and HeFN, the latter being a much larger market opportunity.
Following European approval we expect FDA approval on or before the PDUFA data of January 29th. ISIS is a buy under $12.

William S. Palmer, 90, a former Frankford mill worker who saved several of his wounded foxhole buddies from a German onslaught during World War II, died of cancer Monday, May 13, at the Brigantine home of his daughter, Teri Ryan.
"He was in a hospice for the last three years, but he wanted to die in the house," his son-in-law Thomas Ryan said.
Born in Kensington, Mr. Palmer grew up in Juniata, and, as a teenager, worked in the Civilian Conservation Corps, helping to build roads in Arizona in the 1930s, Ryan said.
The CCC was a federal program that from 1933 to 1942 provided up to two years of work for unemployed, unmarried men whose families were hurting during the Depression.

Division II basketball practice begins Tuesday
Tuesday is the first official day of Division II basketball practice, and the Edinboro men and Gannon women will be under the guidance of new head coaches.
However, the Fighting Scots didn't have to look far to replace Greg Walcavich, who retired after 24 successful years.
Pat Cleary, an assistant to Walcavich for 15 years and the head recruiter, moved over to Walcavich's desk after the Scots went 18-10 and finished with a heartbreaking 89-87 loss at four-time PSAC champion Indiana (Pa.) in the conference quarterfinals.
The Gannon women, who won its second Atlantic Regional in four years under Cleve Wright, saw their coach take the job at Division I Miami (Ohio) and leave behind a 31-5 team that lost only one player. The Knights have a chance to play in the Elite Eight in March at Erie Insurance Arena, with Gannon the host school.
Jim Brunelli, who guided Anderson (S.C.) to the Division II tournament in 2012-13, was named Wright's successor in June. Brunelli was a former assistant to former Gannon women's coach Jodi Kest at Division I Akron. The Lady Knights will get a taste of the nation's premier women's college basketball program on Nov. 1 when they visit NCAA champion Connecticut for an exhibition game in Storrs, Conn.
The Edinboro, Gannon and Mercyhurst programs will see two new teams in the PSAC West in Seton Hill and Pitt-Johnstown, who joined the conference after the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference split up. Lock Haven will move to the PSAC East, forming two nine-team divisions.
The 16 PSAC West games will count in the standings. Each team will have six crossover games that will not count in the standings.
In the past two seasons, all 22 games, including eight crossover contests, were counted.
- Coach: John Reilly (9th season 221-86)
- Assistants: Chris Viscuso, Thurman Schaetzle, Kraig Hetz, Clark Mester.
- 2012-13: 22-7 (16-6 PSAC West, 2nd). Lost to Slippery Rock in PSAC first round.
- Top players lost: F Darrell Blanton (15.6, 6.7), G/F Robert Wilson (12.0, 6.3); G Oscar Macias (10.6, 53 3s), C Tanner Furno (6.4).
- Top players returning: 6-1 jr. G Adam Blazek (11.5, 67 assists), 6-5 sr. G Jabs Newby (4.2, 90 assists); 6-8 sr. G/F C.J. Oldham (3.7, 4.0).
- Newcomers: 6-6 jr. F Raphell Thomas-Edwards; 6-6 jr. F Tee Talley; 6-8 fr. C Aleksander Malinic; 6-6 fr. F Matthew Dogan; 6-1 fr. G Marcus Jones; 6-6 sr. F Rich Austin; 6-3 jr. G/F Girbran Smith; 6-6 jr. F A'Darius Porter; 5-9 fr. G Brandon Domenick; 6-4 fr. F Nolan Woodward.
- Outlook: The Knights lost three of their four top scorers, their two best rebounders and have 10 new players, including six international student-athletes, though some will be redshirted.
- First game: Nov. 20 -- California (Pa.)
- Coach: Pat Cleary (1st season)
- Assistant: Chris Bess
- 2012-13: 18-10, 13-PSAC West (4th). Lost to IUP in PSAC quarterfinals.
- Top players lost: G Isaiah Prince (16.6, 75 steals); G Jay Fletcher (13.8, 70 3s, 126 assists).
- Top players returning: 6-9 sr. C Bryan Theriot (18.1, 9.1), 6-5 sr. F Johnathan Logan (10.7, 71 3s), 6-5 sr. F Xavier Churnac (6.6, 3.4).
- Newcomers: 6-3 fr. G Jaymon Mason; 6-7 fr. F Casey Greggs; 5-8 fr. G Jeremy Lynch; 6-0 jr. G Jonathan Marsh; 6-9 fr. F Amuel Sealy-James; 6-2 G Henri Wade-Chatman.
- Outlook: Cleary replaces his old boss Greg Walcavich after 15 years as an assistant. He will have to find a way to replace the backcourt duo of Prince and Fletcher and hope that productive big man Theriot remains healthy. Mason is a hometown kid from McLane; his father, Tyrone, is Edinboro's all-time leading scorer.
- First game: Nov. 11 -- Thiel
- Coach: Gary Manchel (11th season, 164-115)
- Assistants: A.J. Bender, Dwan McMillen.
- 2012-2013: 16-13, 12-10 PSAC West (5th). Lost to Edinboro in first round.
- Top players lost: F Luis Leao (18.6, 6.7).
- Top players returning: 6-4 sr. G Jonathan Ouegnin (7.7, 4.1, 115 assists); 6-5 jr. G Callon Dailey (8.5); 6-9 r-sr. C Paul Bilbo (7.3, 3.2); 6-2 jr. G Terrance Ingram (6.8, 34 3s); 6-5 so. F Andy Hoying (5.4, 4.3).

- Outlook: The Lakers will certainly miss Leao, one of the best players in the PSAC for 3 seasons, but will have plenty of experience and depth, and add two D-I transfers Ewing (Toledo) and Bennett (George Mason).
- First game: Nov. 15 -- Shepherd (at Shippensburg tournament)
- Coach: Jim Brunelli (1st season)
- Assistants: Mike Whitling, Sarah Grab.
- 2012-13: 31-5, 20-2 PSAC. Won Atlantic Regional, lost to NCAA D-II champion Ashland in Elite Eight.
- Top player lost: Kelsey McCoy (3.8, 3.2).
- Top players returning: 6-1 sr. F Jen Papich (12.3, 5.7, 60 steals); 6-1 jr. F Nettie Blake (11.1, 7.5); 5-8 jr. G Brittany Batts (11.1, 102 3s); 5-10 jr. G Mollie Sebald (8.6); 5-7 r-jr. G Doriyon Glass (7.5); 5-7 sr. G Kelley Sundberg (5.2, 183 assists).
- Newcomers: 6-2 r-fr. Lanice Saunders; 6-0 fr. G/F Brianna Brennan; 5-11 fr. F Mikayla Deguire.
- Outlook: The Knights return all but one player on a team that will take a run at playing in the D-II Elite Eight at Erie Insurance Arena in March, but Brunelli steps into the shoes of Cleve Wright, who departed for Division I Miami of Ohio after a terrific 12-year run, featuring Elite Eight teams in 2009-10 and last season. The cupboard is well-stocked.
- First game: Nov. 13 -- Walsh
- Coach: Stan Swank (27th season, 466-268).
- Assistant: Callie Wheeler
- 2012-13: 22-7, 18-4 PSAC West (2nd), Lost to California (Pa.) in Atlantic Regional quarterfinals.
- Top players lost: G Kiara Brown (17.3, 3.8, 86 steals); C Samantha Blazetic (14.8, 7.7, 64 blocks).
- Top players returning: 6-0 r-jr. G/F Laurel Lindsay (7.0, 5.0, 81 assists); 6-3 so. C Aignee Freeland (7.6, 7.6, 33 blocks); 5-8 sr. G Darche' Jackson (10.7, 4.9, 61 steals).
- Newcomers: 6-2 fr. F Maggie Moore; 5-11 fr. G Lily Hospers; 5-6 jr. G Val Majewski; 6-1 fr. F Nicole Johnson; 6-1 fr. G/F Whitney Allen.
- Outlook: The Scots can't replace the all-PSAC performers Brown and all-time shot-blocker Blazetic, but Lindsay and Jackson are part of three straight Atlantic Regional teams, and Swank has brought in a tall and promising recruiting class.
- First game: Nov. 19 -- Urbana
- Coach: Deanna Richard (7th season, 63-100).
- Assistants: Amy Achesinski, Megan Hoffman, Paris Thomas (student).
- 2012-2013: 7-20, 7-15 PSAC West.
- Top players lost: F Kaylee Foster (11.1, 3.3); G Dana Banda (9.4, 70 assists); G/F Abby Allen 4.9, 4.3); G Lindsay Burke (4.1).

- Outlook: With seven new players, including six freshmen, Kloecker, a Villa Maria grad, will be called upon as a leader though only a sophomore. Richard believes the new class is talented and the Lakers could be a surprise.
- First game: Nov. 16 -- Findlay

Martin Miller's Gin
Years ago. No, eons ago. We reviewed the Westbourne Strength () variant of Martin Miller's gin, a spicier, warmer, stronger version of their original. The original has a dear place in my heart. It's one of the gins that ignited the fire in me for the world of gin. It pushed the boundaries just enough to stand out from everything else behind the bar at that time, but it stayed within familiar confines enough to be clearly and readily identifiable as gin. Martin Miller's gin is one of the forebearers of today's contemporary style. Keep in mind, that this gin was on shelves back in 1999.

In 1963, when the US Navy sought to create a successor to the A-4 Skyhawk, the cost and speed of aircraft production were major concerns.
Chance Vought ultimately developed and produced a derivative of the F-8 Crusader, the subsonic A-7 Corsair II for a cost of about one million dollars.
The A-7 possessed unheard target accuracy, low loses, long range and was popular with pilots and mechanics. After five million flight hours the A-7 became the US militaries most cost effective aerial weapon.
The A-7 was one of the first combat aircraft to use the turbofan engine, Heads Up Display (HUD) and Doppler bound inertial navigation system with Projected Map Display System (PMDS) that are standard equipment on many modern jets.
The turbofan engine, produced for the F-111, provided a dramatic increase in fuel-efficiency using six times less fuel than the F-100 at equal thrust.
The A-7's integrated radar and navigation system fed the digital weapons computer producing a precise drop from a greater distance which improved the survivability of the aircraft.
The early A-7's arrived in Vietnam in 1967, the later D model flew 12,938 sorties with only four losses, less than any US fighter in Vietnam.
The A-7's production ended in 1984, it spent its final US missions in the Gulf War in 1990. Many airframes are still in service around the globe today.

CBNNews.com - GAZA STRIP - Palestinian sources reported that 10 people were injured by an IAF (Israel Air Force) air strike, following Thursday's mortar shell attack on a western Negev kibbutz that killed one man and injured five others.
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officers said the air strike scored a direct hit on a Hamas launch pad in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza.
Palestinian terrorists set up rocket-launch sites within residential areas to heighten the chances that civilians will be killed or injured by targeted air strikes. From their point of view, civilian deaths and injuries benefit their cause.
That was the case Thursday when Palestinian doctors said a four-year-old girl was killed in an IAF strike targeting the Hamas terrorist who launched the mortar shell attack on Kibbutz Nir Oz, which killed Amnon Rosenfeld.
Rosenfeld is survived by his wife, Tal, sons Dor, 27, and Eldar, 22, and daughter Yarden, 12.

All NYC Apartment Buildings with - 24-Hour Concierge
With a 24-hour lobby attendant on post, you can have peace of mind that your home is being looked after. Security is the primary duty of a lobby attendant, but they are also there to assist guests with tasks such as handling the mail or to offer help in case of emergencies. The concierge is at your beck-and-call 24-hours a day, 365 days a year.
In some of the more swanky buildings you'll find a front desk that's attended 24 hours a day by a concierge. Much like at a nice hotel, the concierge is there to take care of the needs of tenants such as receiving packages, calling the plumber or electrician and let you back into your home should you find yourself locked out.
