New York governor Eliot Spitzer gave his statement of resignation on Wednesday after his involvement in a prostitution ring was made public. His wife, Silda Wall Spitzer, stood solemnly next to her husband as he delivered this difficult speech."Over the course of my public life, I have insisted—I believe correctly—that people, re-gardless of their position or power, take responsibility for their conduct. I can and will ask no less of myself."But Spitzer hardly made this decision because of an overpowering conscience. After the story of the scandal was released to the press, he lost respect from fellow politicians and the citizens of New York State. Facing impeachment and an overwhelming decrease in popularit, he had no other choice but to resign.Reports reveal Spitzer spent $80,000 on prostitutes. fine use of the taxpayers' money, right? However, Spitzer isn't the first authority figure we've seen caught in a scandal.In August 2007, Idaho Senator Larry Craig was arrested for lewd conduct in the men's bathroom of a Minneapolis airport. Craig pleaded guilty to a charge of disorderly conduct and later refused to resign. He still holds his position but claims he will not run in the 2008 election.Then there's Bob Allen, a Florida Republican accused of offering to pay a male police officer for sexual favours, and Kevin Shelley, former California Secretary of State, charged with "sexually explicit gestures and remarks" towards his assistants while laundering campaign funds. And who can forget the Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky scandal? There are hundreds of other examples, because as long as there have been politicians, there has been political scandal.It's no secret that politicians are rewarded generous salaries and other "perks." Blinded by his cash, Spitzer wasn't considering the consequences when he spent the night with a prostitute last month.In his failure to stay loyal to his wife, he has proven untrustworthy to the public as well. His daughters (aged 18, 14, and 12) must also be affected, as the call-girl he was caught with, Ashley Dupre, is 22 years old—only four years older than his first-born child. A politician who has no respect for his family cannot be expected to care for the welfare of his people.In addition to the impact of the scandal on his family and the public, we must consider the prostitutes employed by infl uential and "respected" members of society. Some might recall that Spitzer's latest callgirl was the only one left unmentioned in his public apology. Despite the misconception that high-class prostitution is a glamorous profession, prostitutes continue to be abused as "part of the job." Their clients treat them as if they are mere objects being rented out.Eliot Spitzer's behaviour would not be considered tolerable from anyone, let alone an authority figure. The eradication of such immoral acts by those trusted with elected positions can happen only because we regret their mistakes—not simply because they are forced to face them.
Twisted Spitzer
Around the bases: 2008 MLB Preview
Toronto Blue Jays
With their strongest team in years, the Jays pitching staff have been dealt a major blow with the loss of Casey Janssen for the year, due to a torn right labrum. Janssen's loss hurts even more because of his effectiveness against division rivals Boston and New York in 07. Even with the additions of David Eckstein and Scott Rolen from St. Louis and Vernon Wells' shoulder all healed up, Toronto, like New York, will live and die this season with their pitching. Their hopes lie in Shaun Marcum and Dustin McGowan improving on solid '07 campaigns, and how well closer B.J. Ryan will perform, missing nearly all of last season due to a Tommy John surgery.
Boston Red Sox
Despite losing out on the Johan Santana sweepstakes, last year's World Series Champs countered by adding 2005 Cy Young Award winner Bartolo Colon. Even if Colon doesn't pan out and none of their top players go down due to injuries, the Red Sox will have all the ingredients to win their third championship in five years. 2007 Rookie of the Year, Dustin Pedroia, adds more firepower to one of the league's most gifted offenses. The Red Sox have a strong rotation, solid bullpen, and an overpowering closer that should make it tough for the Blue Jays or Yankees to dethrone them from the top spot in the American League East.
Cleveland Indians
They've had all winter to recover from the mental trauma of their self-destruction to the Boston Red Sox in the ALCS, taking a 3- 1 series lead. The reigning Central Division champs look to take a page out of the Red Sox book and exorcise their World Series demons by ending a 53-year drought. They return with the same team that put up a major league best 96 wins in 07, stronger this year thanks to last year's valuable post-season experience. They will once again boast two potential Cy Young Award winners in Fausto Carmona and the 2007 winner, C.C. Sabathia. Key to their drive to the World Series will be whether designated hitter Travis Hafner bounces back from a disappointing '07 season and playoffs.
Detroit Tigers
In 07 they boasted one of the scariest batting orders in the majors. The Tigers led or were second in nearly all offensive categories in the American League. With the addition of slugger Miguel Cabrera from the Florida Marlins, look for Detroit to put up some really crooked numbers this season. Last season's downfall was their pitching, close to the bottom of the league in several important categories, including walks, runs, and earned-run-average. That's where Dontrelle Willis, the other major player acquired in their trade with Florida, comes into play. Statistically, Willis had a terrible 07 season, putting up career worst numbers in wins, innings pitched, ERA, losses, walks, and home runs against. Still, Willis is only 26 and a change of scenery was just what he needed after enduring the penny-pinching Marlins ownership for years. Look for him to bounce back in a major way as Detroit becomes a series contender this year.
Americans love nothing more than condemning a politician that they view as immoral, and we all love nothing more than watching a powerful person's empire crumble
Governor Eliot Spitzer may be pinned as the "ethical crusader" of modern politics, with his tough stance on white-collar crime and corruption, but he certainly wasn't immune. His story is another tragic tale of a rising star whose ego-driven escapades led him to public humiliation and an end to his gubernatorial career. This past week, Mr. Spitzer was charged with patronizing an illegal prostitution ring and money laundering, after the FBI was asked to conduct a federal wiretap on the governor's questionable transactions. Once the evidence came forward, a media firestorm was unleashed. Late-night shows and pundits alike chimed in as coverage of made its way across the Atlantic.Eliot Spitzer was poised for greatness early in his career as a New York attorney, despite harsh criticisms of his temperament. Many of his former colleagues portrayed him as a dif- ficult man to get along with: aggressive and authoritarian, as he fervently tackled fraud in corporate America. Spitzer came across as a trustworthy and honest politician, with an approach to ethics reform that was almost "Obamaesque." He won the praise of many of his associates and even made the front cover of Time. As a graduate of Princeton and Harvard Law School, this former prosecutor knew the intense scrutiny placed on prostitution rings. In fact, while in office, he established a law that would enforce stricter sentences for those involved.Unbeknownst to his family and the public, Governor Spitzer kept a dirty little secret, involving several high-priced call girls and the illegal transferring of funds.What happened to the honest-to-goodness governor from New York? Did he really think that he was immune to any litigation? As far as I know, there isn't one set of laws for the common people and another for the elite. Perhaps Mr. Spitzer dozed off in one of his classes in law school and missed that point.It's still unclear what truly motivated this man to commit adultery, trash his reputation, and put his family into years of therapy, but one can only assume that an individual of such a stature believed himself to be invincible and fully entitled to a little self-indulgence.The governor has not been tried in court, but could face possible jail time if convicted. Many of his opponents have called for his impeachment, but as of last week, the governor stoically announced his resignation. It's appalling to see how far some will go to remove this man from office when it's obvious the crime doesn't fit the punishment. With the U.S. military death toll looming at 4,000, millions of displaced Iraqis, a volatile economy with an imminent recession, and an out-of-whack immigration system, perhaps the ones who should be facing impeachment are George Bush and Dick Cheney.Meanwhile, we have the luxury of sitting comfortably on our couches and watching the pundits tear Eliot Spitzer apart. There's nothing more gratifying than watching a politician's empire crumble to the ground, especially when there's a sexual twist. Let's face it—when a tempestuous scandal involving a prominent figure erupts in the media, we eat it up. Perhaps it's the self-satisfaction we receive from knowing that even political leaders—as glamorous a life as they may lead—have fl aws and inner demons they must battle, Whatever the underlying reason, as long as politicians continue to screw up while in office (and trust me, they will), we'll be there for all the drama.
In the media's rabid rush to reveal all the facts, they were real assholes to Ashley Alexandra Dupré
It's a rare occurence when our typically shock-obsessed media displays a touch of class. Earlier this month, when it was revealed (courtesy of everyone's favourite sensationalist scandal-breaker, The Drudge Report) that Prince Harry was serving on the front lines of Afghanistan, many were also surprised to find out that the British media—from The Times to the multitudes of tabloids—had known about his deployment for over two months but agreed to keep it quiet so Harry could serve without becoming a priority target for Taliban operatives. As soon as the story broke, Harry was pulled back to England, having enjoyed being an average soldier.It's nice to see human decency from the media, who realized that certain stories should be hushed because publishing them would have near-universal negative consequences. Unfortunately, any nice cred the media gained from keeping mum on Harry's deployment melted away this week.Everyone loves an inflatable scandal, and moral crusader Eliot Spitzer's sexcapades were sensationalistic schadenfreude. It was almost too good to be true—the Governor of New York, the golden boy of anti-corruption vigilantism, who had personally busted up prostitution rings, was caught employing a sex worker.Pundits were quick to condemn Spitzer, pity his family, and call for his resignation, but there was an elephant in the room—the high-class sex worker Spitzer hired. For two days, the Emperor's Club's "Kirsten" was a caricature to the world. A whorish homewrecker, known only through wiretapped phone conversation, she took thousands of dollars from a respected politician and family man, did unspeakable things with him, and treated it all as a casual business operation. She was praised, condemned, and imagined in a thousand different ways by a thousand different water-cooler news analysts. She was purely a creation of our imagination as an accessory of Spitzer's crimes—and she should have stayed that way.Then, on March 12, the New York Times, arguably the U.S.'s most respectable paper, published a link to Kirsten's Myspace profile. The article identified Kirsten as Ashley Alexandra Dupré, a 22-year-old aspiring singer in New York. Instantly, millions of people had full access to Dupré's entire biography. The next day, the same three pictures of her were splashed on front pages worldwide. Some respected columnists identified her as "Spitzer's Whore." Very few gave her the slightly more dignified title of "sex worker." Most papers identified her as a prostitute, treating her in the most patronizing way imaginable, mocking her musical aspiration, describing her sound as "quaint" and "silly."Regardless, thanks to the Times and others, Dupré will now forever be degraded as Spitzer's sex worker. Regardless of whether you think the sex trade is right or wrong, there's a reason that the Emperor's Club does its best to keep its employees anonymous: the sex trade is one that is looked down upon by the majority of America. From here on in, anyone who hits on Dupré—and trust me, there will be lots of piggish catcalls—will do so with certain expectations. Other moral crusaders will likely refuse to associate with her. If she decides to eventually have children, there's no doubt that they'll be ridiculed for being the children of a sex worker.Dupré's media exposure isn't all bad—it's likely to land her a record deal with thousands of supporters on Myspace. But she's also gained the condemnations of countless more.The media's brush has painted Dupré into a corner, and while I certainly hope for the opposite, the stigma will not go away. To many, Dupré will always be "Spitzer's Whore."
Fun and games?
An English-language remake of Michael Haneke's Funny Games (1997) directed by Haneke himself is perhaps the most unlikely major studio venture of the year. In the original, two sociopaths hold an upper-middle-class family hostage in their summer home, forcing them to take part in torturous psychological games. That film was bleak, brutal, nihilistic, and emotionally unsatisfying—exactly the sort of difficult fare that Hollywood generally avoids.How could Haneke possibly find American financing? I assumed he would be forced to compromise his vision, similar to how George Sluizer had to tack an incongruous happy ending onto his Hollywood version of The Vanishing. Boy, was I wrong. The film Haneke has delivered is nearly identical to his 1997 original. Not only is the gloomy tone intact, but so is everything else, from the geography of the house right down to placement of the tables and chairs. Compared to this, Gus Van Sant's shotby- shot remake of Psycho played positively fast and loose with its source material.
In the rare instances when foreign filmmakers have directed American remakes of their own movies, the boredom is usually palpable, yet the new Funny Games turns out to be every bit as good as the original. It's still powerful, suspenseful, and absolutely merciless towards its characters and audience.Seeing Funny Games for the first time is an ordeal. There were many walkouts when it played at Cannes in 1997, and I remember that fateful day when I watched it on DVD, thinking about how nice it would be to turn it off, go out into the sunshine, and reassure myself that the world wasn't so terrible after all.Haneke intended his film to be a dark satire of America's glamorized presentation of violence. "In many American films, violence is made consumable," says Haneke in the press notes. "I want to show the reality of violence, the pain, the wounding of another human being." His point is that in being entertained by cinematic depictions of murder, we are on the same moral level as the murderers. At several points during Funny Games, the killers break the fourth wall and address the camera, as if conspiring with the viewer directly.Haneke goes beyond attacking the viewer's taste in movies: he attacks the viewer personally. I hated the contempt that Haneke had for his audience. Movies like Psycho and A Clockwork Orange trick the audience into sympathizing with their depraved heroes, but those films at least offer considerable entertainment value. Funny Games, on the other hand, is no fun at all. Frankly, I wanted a film that would reassure me that I was on the moral high ground. Why should Haneke make me accessory to the crimes just because I rented his movie?Well…why not? Isn't great art supposed to challenge us? Haneke has said he wants this remake to reach the multiplex crowd that supports the torture porn genre, but he is most skillful in challenging his own bourgeois art house audience. Most of his films paint lessthan- flattering pictures of the upper-middleclass lifestyle (in Funny Games, the family's elaborate gate keeps them from escaping), and in interviews he has said that this film was not meant as a rebuttal to lowbrow horror flicks, but to the work of Palme d'Or winner and critics' darling Quentin Tarantino.Watching his Funny Games, already knowing everything that was to come, I could appreciate just how meticulous Haneke is as a filmmaker. His decision to not use non-diegetic music deprives us of one of the medium's most reassuring artifices. Watch how he creates a stifling, claustrophobic atmosphere by frequently focusing the camera away from the characters that are talking. Look for moments where Haneke subverts the conventions of the typical thriller (near the beginning, the camera lingers on a knife, presumably to establish its importance. When the knife finally reappears towards the end, it's as a cynical joke). And of course, keep in mind that most of the violent acts takes place off screen, something I didn't even realize when I first saw the original.So what's new in the remake? Well, very little. In fact, the few times where dialogue has been dropped or shot constructions have been altered will stick out like a sore thumb for anyone with a good memory. Naomi Watts, Tim Roth, Michael Pitt, and Brady Corbett now play the four central roles, and they fit their parts so perfectly that memories of the original actors rarely arise. Pitt in particular gives a great, creepy performance that deserves comparison with Malcolm McDowell in A Clockwork Orange.If you've seen the original Funny Games, do you need to see the remake? Maybe not. But then again, if your first reaction was as negative as mine, you may find that another viewing can be a revelation. I certainly didn't "enjoy" either version of this film, but they both made me rethink many of the violent films I've enjoyed. And for that alone, Funny Games is invaluable.
Kingwell takes on the city
In conjunction with the inaugural University of Toronto Festival of the Arts and the University of Toronto Art Centre's exhibition of John Hartman's Cities, Mark Kingwell delivered a lecture entitled "The City as a Work of Art" on March 13.Kingwell, a philosophy professor at U of T, is the author of 10 books. The consummate Toronto flaneur had no problem filling every seat in the University College lecture theatre.The city—from civitas, civilized life and citizenship—intrigues Kingwell, and his love shows. In his lecture, he made the case for the city as a work of art, using New York City and Shanghai as his primary examples. Cities, according to Kingwell, cannot be easily defined as one thing or the other, but rather as a confluence of things that collide together to create a sense of embodied consciousness— very much like the people who inhabit them.He takes his cue from Heidegger, who asserted that "the mere object is not the work of art" but rather the space created by the object for reflection and contemplation. For him, the "city of the imagination," more than the actual environs of the city, helps to justify the city as a work of art. More than the concrete that surrounds us, the city assimilates into our consciousness. His rejection of teleological ends and grand urban planning recalls the late Jane Jacobs.Kingwell's excellent conception of cities, which any city-lover would agree with, testify that the city is an organic, growing thing, though it is not biological. It represents the ultimate Freudian conquest of our natural environs: a centre of creativity and culture. A city, according to Kingwell, is not a symphony but a jazz riff—many parts coming together to make excellent music. And, just as his artful city is more a jazz piece than a concerto, Kingwell shone brightest in the Q&A, easily elaborating on many points.Whether each person agreed or disagreed with Kingwell's analysis, the lecture provided each of us with food for thought—just what city life should do.
Blue Hour is beautiful
Leave it to David Mamet to elevate mundane, everyday American English to the level of poetry. The UCDP's production of The Blue Hour truly blew me away—the lights alone would have been worth watching, but when talented acting and skilful direction bring a masterful text to life, it is truly a treat. The play was presented as part of the ongoing inaugural University of Toronto Festival of the Arts.The play is a series of vignettes set in New York City about a time called, funnily enough, the blue hour, that time just after sunset where the sky is a perfect, beautiful blue. The interaction between actors Sonia Lindner and Thomas Davis in the opening scene was hilarious, as was the following scene with Lindner and Gwynne Phillips in a closing department store.
The scene between JP Bevilacqua and Davis as two businessmen forced into awkward conversation on a commuter train was perhaps the most resonant— expressing the annoyance at dealing with those you could not care less about.Most touching however was the concluding scene between Bevilacqua and Davis. The loneliness of the two men in a subway station was so understated and tense that the audience was dead silent until the scene faded to black, the theatre erupting in applause.My only regret is that I did not have time to see the other shows, Methusalem: Or, the Eternal Bourgeois and Bully, that ran with The Blue Hour. If this show indicates of the level of talent in this year's UCDP batch, I would no doubt have been delighted.
Space oddity
Stephen Chow's attempt to conquer the American market continues with CJ7, a whimsical, effects-heavy, sci-ficomedy. Chow, "the Jim Carrey of Asia," has starred in over 40 films and directed eight, but few of them—heavily dependant on Cantonese wordplay and unspeakably broad comedy—have made an impression outside Hong Kong.With Shaolin Soccer (2001) and Kung Fu Hustle (2004), Chow replaced much of his colloquial sensibility with universally accessible material: special effects, elaborate action sequences, and over-the-top visual comedy. He was rewarded with strong reviews and worldwide box office receipts, but CJ7 won't do much to broaden his appeal. While Chow's vivid imagination is still on display, this time his sloppiness gets the better of him.
Chow's screen-time in CJ7 is surprisingly minimal. The real star is child actor Xu Jiao, who's a cute little kid. He plays Dicky, the oft-bullied son of a poor construction worker named Ti (Chow). Dicky wants a high-tech toy called a CJ1, and is dismayed when Ti can't afford it. Later that evening, during his daily search through the local dump, Ti finds a green egg deposited by a nearby spaceship, and gives it to Dicky, calling it a "CJ7." But wait, it gets better—the egg hatches and CJ7 turns out to be a green, squishy, super-dog from outer space.Chow has trouble maintaining a consistent tone. Silly scenes and moments of cloying sentimentality clash jarringly, and when the inevitable tragic situation arises three quarters of the way in, it's hard to care. Characters never extend beyond broad archetypes. And while Kung Fu Hustle intentionally pushed aside story for rapid-fire comedy, in a film with "heart" like CJ7, the script is undercooked.Like Chow's last two films, CJ7 uses CGI to a hyper-stylized, downright cartoonish extent. The CJ7 character is entirely computer generated, and it's fun to watch. There are moments where CGI is used to create truly excellent gags, as CJ7 pulls a little toolbox out of nowhere, and makes Dicky a pair of high-tech shoes. Still, Chow is a hit-and-miss comedian, and this time his odds are off. Typical joke: one of Dicky's schoolmates is a girl played by a massive, 250-pound man. Ho ho. This is the type of goofiness that goes over big in Hong Kong and doesn't travel well overseas…except to kids.But will kids see this? Sony Pictures Classics is making the drastic mistake of marketing CJ7 to art house audiences instead of families. A subtitled version is opening in limited release, the trailer attached to the beginning of The Counterfeiters of all things. Strange tactics, because the grade school set might like it. But it's no Kung Fu Hustle; it's gentler, less chaotic, and, frankly, less enjoyable.

Coach Allister Coetzee has been in the dog box at the Springboks before.
And Toetie will be looking to draw inspiration from Jake White, under who he served his apprenticeship from 2004-2007.
Back in 2006 the Boks also went through turmoil and after losing seven of their 12 matches, White was called back from their end of year tour for an emergency meeting in Cape Town, with thecountry demanding his head.
He somehow survived and won the World Cup, with Coetzee and Eddie Jones among his coaching staff, for the national team the following year.
Coetzee admits that this is a tough time for Bok rugby, but believes his experience will help him get through it.
He tells Sport24: "This isn't the first time I have endured difficult times.
"You have to handle it the right way."
And the way the coach wants to handle it is by not making a number of changes to his side for what should have been an easy ride against Italy this weekend.
He explains: "You can make wholesale changes and simply create a situation where the other players make the same mistakes [as they did in the 37-21 defeat to England last weekend]."
Coetzee has an opportunity to do one better than what White did in 2006, though.
A decade ago, the Boks only won five out of their 12 matches, the current crop has four games in the bag with two to come.
But with Coetzee being insistent on his game plan, patience might run out for the former Stormers coach even if he wins the remaining games.
Of the way the Boks approach the game, Toetie says: "We have analysed the game and are disappointed that the team couldn't maintain their performance in the first 30 minutes. England didn't look dangerous during that period."

Chicago White Sox opening day is Friday, April 8! Chicago's Southside baseball fans can kick off the season at their favorite eatery with a hot dog and beer special. The home opener starts at 3:10 p.m. and Fabulous Freddies Italian Eatery is offering $3.10 beer and Bridgeport Dog combo for all home games that start at 3:10 p.m.
Fabulous Freddies Italian Eatery
The iconic Bridgeport Dog is the neighborhood's take on the classic Chicago hot dog: it's served on a classic bun (no poppy seeds), and replaces celery salt and sport peppers with cucumbers. Some residents trace the origin of the Bridgeport Dog to the Freddies proprietors' "Uncle Joey" of Joey's Hot Dogs fame.
"The Bridgeport Dog is what Bridgeport residents have come to love," say the Bertucci sisters, second-generation owners of the Eatery. "We're excited to offer our favorite dog and brew special for $3.10 to celebrate the baseball season."
In addition to the brew and dog special, if the home team wins, fans can celebrate with a free cup of Freddies' famous creamy Italian ice after the game. Customers can also upgrade to an Infused Ice with their favorite alcoholic spirit for $4.

The present invention relates to a security system for monitoring danger parameters, comprising danger sensors, and with a central unit having a wireless connection to the danger sensors.
Hard-wired security systems in which danger sensors are connected to a central unit via a two-wire line or a bus (see for example WO-A-95/24087), are well known. Wireless security systems are also known and are becoming increasingly common (see e.g. U.S. Pat. No. 5,155,469). Hybrid systems in which both types of communication, wired and wireless, are used (see for example EP-A-O 803 850), are also known.
A hard-wired connection guarantees a very high reliability of transfer, but makes the entire system relatively inflexible when seeking to accommodate changes in room designs and use. Such changes usually require the relocation of individual sensors which because of the necessary wiring can require extensive, disruptive and expensive installation work. The subsequent fitting of such security systems with wires in existing buildings, particularly in those in which no security system was originally provided, can be complex and expensive. This is particularly so in historic buildings.
Wireless security systems which have been used in private houses are known to be susceptible to faults, one attributing factor of which is the systems inadequate battery energy supply. This disadvantage however has been largely eliminated now that long-life batteries are available, and further because the power consumption of the radio sensors has been able to be reduced. Other causes of fault such as for example false alarms may also be reduced by alarm verification measures.
A wireless security system meeting modem requirements should also be suitable for use with danger sensors to monitor different danger parameters. Its production should be in expensive and its installation simple. Such a system should also be flexible, and allow the use of danger sensors for various danger parameters or danger sensors working on different protection principles. These objects and other objects are achieved according to the present invention, wherein the danger sensors have a communication module having the same dimensions and same shape for a variety of different alarm types, and the communication module is designed for fixing the danger sensor to a mounting plate.
In a preferred embodiment of the security system according to the present invention, each communication module is designed for connection with a detection module for danger parameters. The detection modules are provided for different danger parameters which can be connected to any communication module as required.
In another preferred embodiment of the security system according to the present invention, mounting plates are installed at specified points, and then the danger sensors are attached to the mounting plates by means of the communication module.
In a further preferred embodiment of the security system according to the present invention, the detection module is secured against unauthorized removal from the communication module.
In yet another preferred embodiment of the security system according to the present invention, the mounting plate has a straight guide for guarding against removal, and the danger sensor is fastened to the mounting plate by directing (pushing) the sensor vertically into the straight guide.
The use of a mounting plate and an identical communication module for different sensor types, and the use of this communication module for fixing the sensor to the mounting plate, has the essential advantage that for all sensors used in the system a single type of mounting plate can be used. This makes sensor installation very simple, and capable of being performed by relatively untrained staff, i.e., the installer of the sensor need not have any knowledge of security technology so that the sensor can be installed for example by a salesperson, an electrician, or, if sold in the building or do-it-yourself markets, by the purchaser. Since any detection module can be connected to each communication module, the security system according to the invention has maximum flexibility.
The present invention also relates to a danger sensor for a security system having wireless communication. The danger sensor comprises two modules, a communication module and a detection module. The communication module has mechanical and electrical/electronic interfaces with the detection module, and is intended for securing the danger sensor to a mounting plate. In a first preferred embodiment the said interface comprises a mechanical connection device and an electrical plug connection. In another preferred embodiment, the mechanical connection device has a straight guide and a stop which are designed and arranged so that on creation of the mechanical connection, an electrical plug connection is also created. In yet another preferred embodiment the said mechanical connection device is arranged on steps of the communication and detection modules which are designed to complement each other, and where in the installed state, the step of the detection module is covered towards the room to be monitored by the step of the communication module.
In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, guide means are included in the communication module which can be inserted in a corresponding straight guide of the mounting plate, and locking means are provided for fixing the sensor to the mounting plate.
Still another preferred embodiment of the danger sensor according to the present invention utilizes a contact switch arranged on the communication module which forms one part of a sabotage detector to trigger an alarm upon unauthorized removal of the danger sensor, or one of its modules from the wall.
In a further preferred embodiment of the danger sensor according to the present invention a web, which can be screwed to the wall bearing the mounting plate and broken away from the mounting plate, forms another part of the sabotage detector which in the installed state of the danger sensor closes the contact switch.
The invention is described in greater detail below and with reference to an embodiment and drawings in which:
The danger sensor 3 consists of two modules, a communication module 8, and a detection module 9, where the latter is in the form of a passive infrared sensor (PIR). Instead of a PIR, the detection module can be formed by any movement or burglary sensor, fire sensor, glass breakage sensor, magnetic switch, or alarm sensor activated manually or a monitoring camera. The detection module 9 can also be a microphone to record noises, or a speaker for addressing a monitored room, or an alarm emitter such as for example a siren or light.
At its upper edge the detection module 9 has a step, which on its horizontal forward-facing surface carries a guide profile 10, and on its vertical surface a pin or socket element 11 of an electric plug connection. The guide profile 10 is part of a straight guide to connect the detection module 9 to the communication module 8. The communication module 8 has the same cross-section as the detection module 9, and at its lower edge has a step which is complementarily formed to the step of the detection module 9. On its horizontal surface, it also has a guide profile which forms part of the said straight guide, and on its vertical surface carries the counter piece to the pin or socket element 10 of the electric plug connector. At the base surface, two locking lugs 12 abut the step of the communication module 8 for engagement in recesses 6 of the mounting plate 2. The side edges of the communication module 8 have guide webs 13 which are provided for engagement in the guide profile 4 of the mounting plate 2. On the upper face of the communication module 8 is a web 14 with a bore to hold a fixing screw.
If a danger sensor 3 is to be installed in a monitored room, mounting plates 2 are screwed to the walls at the required points. Then each detection module 9 is connected with a communication module 8 to form a danger sensor 3 (moving the communication module 8 in direction of arrow A of
In the end position (
It is essential that all communication modules 8 have substantially the same shape and dimensions so that each communication module 8 can be connected with any detection module 9, and be attached to a mounting plate 2. Only a single type of mounting plate 2 and a single type (in relation to mechanical aspects) of communication module 8 are used. With regard to their electrical properties the communication modules may differ for different types of detection module 9.
The relevant electrical properties of the danger sensor will depend on whether single or two-way communication is desired, and/or in which country the system is installed. For example for radio communication in security systems the European countries specify a frequency of 867 MHz; USA specifies a frequency of 900 MHz; and Australia specifies one of 700 MHz. It must also be noted that for certain types of detection modules, such as for example cameras and speakers/microphones, broadband communication will be necessary.
Because the danger sensor 3 is attached to the mounting plate 2 via the communication module 8 which is mechanically the same in all cases, the entire security system is greatly simplified with regard to installation. It is now no longer necessary that each sensor must be screwed to the wall individually with a differing number of screws of different lengths and thickness. Now, only the mounting plate need be screwed to the wall, and for which, a single type of screw, a single type of dowel, a single type of screwdriver, and a single drill size is sufficient. The installation of the danger sensor is thus as simple as possible and requires no tool apart from the screwdriver for the fixing screw.
To guard against unauthorized removal of the danger sensor 3 from the wall 1, a sabotage detector is provided which consists of a contact switch (not shown) arranged in the area of the upper face of the communication module 8, and an activation element for the contact switch. As can be seen in
If a saboteur tears the entire danger sensor including mounting plate from the wall, the area 14 with tab 15 will be broken out of the mounting plate and remain on the wall so that the contact switch is opened and a sabotage attempt will be indicated. When the danger sensor 3 is torn away from the mounting plate 2, the tab 15 will remain on the mounting plate and the contact switch will also be opened. The same applies if the sensor is removed by releasing the fixing screw (web 7, 14,
The embodiment of the mounting plate 2 and danger sensor 3 shown in the drawings is provided merely as an example and should not be understood as restricting the broad scope of the present invention.

text: I'm having a dilemma about speaker positioning, the usual problems with room layout and decor. I was thinking of using my Mission Stance stands to put my rear speakers on (PMC DB1) that would make them at ear height and would be just behind the seating position toed in or almost facing each other. When I demoed the kit the rear speakers were at ear level and it sounded fine to me but from reading posts on this forum it seems that to get the best sound rears should be higher. Can this not be adjusted with the processor settings to make it sound ok? Or will I never get the best out of my system by doing it this way? I don't have the option of wall mounting them higher as it would mean they are right on top of my wall lights and would look awful. The only option I have is to buy some taller stands for the rears, I was just hoping I could get away with having the front and rears at the same height.

If you suddenly develop a craving for Spanish tapas, all you need to do is head to Nali Patio in Sanlitun which is where many of the top Spanish restaurants in the city have decided to crowd themselves. But Migas is clearly king of the mountain, both in reputation and in location (top floor). Helmed by a former protégée of the legendary Adrian Ferras of El Bulli, Migas takes its menu offerings seriously with ever changing menu items and not one but two kitchens – the central open air kitchen and a test kitchen to experiment with new menu additions.
But lest you think Migas is all about serious cuisine, think again. The restaurant is designed for sensory overload, from brightly colored furniture and paintings in the dining area to the gorgeous rooftop deck with its egg shaped seats and cabanas. On summer weekends, Migas's rooftop is the best scene in town with breathtaking views of the city, great music and a good-looking crowd. Migas also recently opened for brunch to rave reviews.
So is Migas a spanish restaurant, bar, brunch spot or party central? It's whatever you want it to be.

Candidates Target African-American, Women Voters By Tony Arnold • Oct 31, 2014 facebook.com/GovernorQuinn & facebook.com/BruceRauner The major party candidates for Illinois governor are spending the final days of the campaign targeting African-Americans and women. Chicago Democratic Congressman Danny Davis warned an African-American crowd against voting for Republican Bruce Rauner. "I think it would be the same as a turkey voting for an early Thanksgiving." Rauner spoke at churches made up of mostly black congregants. Meanwhile, Rauner's wife--Diana--had a message for women. Quinn Urges Agreement In Four-Week Waukegan School District Strike By Katie Finlon • Oct 30, 2014 Flickr user / alamosbasement "old school" (CC BY 2.0) Gov. Pat Quinn ordered the Illinois Board of Education chairman to help both sides reach an agreement Wednesday in a four-week school district strike in Waukegan. That's after the board abruptly adjourned a public meeting with members and parents shouting and booing. Both parties say they reached a tentative contract agreement. Officials say schools plan to reopen Monday. About 17,000 students have been out of school since the strike began on Oct. 2. Rauner Trumps Quinn In Facebook 'Likes' By Katie Finlon • Oct 28, 2014 facebook.com/GovernorQuinn & facebook.com/BruceRauner Democrat Gov.

DNA Info reports the Republican businessman's page has nearly 44,000 more likes than Quinn's. Facebook says more than 11,000 people are "talking" about Rauner on the social media site. Just over a thousand are talking about Quinn. Polls Agree Illinois Governor Race Will Be Tight By Amanda Vinicky • Oct 27, 2014 facebook.com/GovernorQuinn & facebook.com/BruceRauner Polls are coming in at a rapid pace, from polling companies like Rasmussen Reports, newspapers like the Chicago Tribune, and interest groups like the state Chamber of Commerce. They vary in the number of likely voters contacted, the wording of the questions these people were asked, and, of course, their responses. But they all agree: the race for Illinois governor is going to be close. Really close. Illinois Gov. Candidates Cover Income Tax, Pension Law In Final Debate By Katie Finlon & Lauren Chooljian • Oct 21, 2014 twitter.com/BruceRauner; twitter.com/QuinnforIL The candidates for Illinois governor made their case to voters in the third and final televised debate before the November election. Monday's debate was sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Illinois. One question involved the pension law, signed by Incumbent Pat Quinn. A panelist wanted to know what Quinn would do if the state Supreme Court overturns the law. Quinn repeated a phrase he used often in his campaign, that he doesn't take an aspirin before he gets a headache. Pages« first ‹ previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 next › last »

Auto Safety Legislation—
President Johnson has told a committee of state governors that "strict national safety standards for automobiles" are needed even though ultimate responsibility for traffic safety remains with the states.Johnson said that "the traffic safety legislation I have proposed will move us out of the age of ignorance." He urged support of the Administration legislation a few days before the House and Senate Commerce Committee separately began closed-door sessions on it.Auto manufacturers wanted the legislation amended to give the states a role in setting safety standards. They sought a key role for the Vehicle Equipment Safety Commission, which is sponsored by the states."The auto industry's latest proposal would emasculate the President's bill and would impose an undue burden on the Secretary of Commerce," a Commerce Department spokesman said. "We're definitely opposed to it."Johnson said the Administration legislation will "give us the resources to find

U-23s head coach Siasia has also included Manchester City forward Kelechi Iheanacho in a list of 35 players expected to fight for places in the country's 18-man squad despite claims that the teenager will not be able to attend the games die to club commitments.
Also in the squad are Super Eagles defenders William Troost Ekong, Musa Muhammed, Stanley Amuzie, Kingsley Madu, Kenneth Omeruo and Godfrey Oboabona, midfielders Oghenekaro Etebo, Okechukwu Azubuike, Imoh Ezekiel, Usman Mohammed and Abdullahi Shehu, and forwards Alex Iwobi and Aminu Umar.
The Nigeria Football Federation have also disclosed that the team will depart the country next week for a final training camp in the United States of America ahead of this year's Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Siasia opted for a final training camp in Atlanta, venue of Nigeria's historic triumph 20 years ago, in order to "psychologically prepare my boys for victory in Brazil", according to an NFF release.
Earlier in the week, the NFF confirmed that there would be a friendly match between the Nigeria Olympic team and the U23 National Team of Mexico in Mexico on Saturday, 2nd July. The match will take place at the Aguascalientes Stadium, home ground of newly promoted top tier club, Necaxa FC, and is scheduled to start at 8.30pm Mexican time.
The NFF also announced that after the friendly, the Nigeria U23 squad will continue their training camp in the United States of America and will play Charleston Battery FC in Atlanta on Saturday, 16th July. A game against the Honduras U23 team is also being planned for 27th July.
Meanwhile, the players in Siasia's provisional squad of 35 will train in the USA before a final list of 18 is drawn up just before the trip to Brazil.

Let me start by saying no toads were harmed in the making of this recipe for toad in the hole. (Phew, right? For SO many reasons.) Nope, toad in the hold is a classic English dish that involves baking sausages in a egg and flour batter, and as far as I can tell, it got its name from the sausage peeking out from the batter, I guess like a toad peeking out from a hole? One way or the other, think of it as sausage baked in a light and fluffy popover dough...and in my unauthentic version, some cherry tomatoes and chopped scallions as well. It is a super easy recipe that bakes up to puffy deliciousness in a skillet, and is one of our go-to comfort dinners around these parts. Let's make it! Read More & Get the Recipe
Easy Paella
There is a reason why I am calling this reason Easy Paella, and it is this: Paella Is Easy. For ages and ages I suffered from Paella Intimidation, which is the completely unreasonable fear of making one of my favorite rice and seafood dishes because, I don't know, it looked HARD. And then I bucked up and made it, and guess what? Not. Hard. Nope, it's one of the easier fancy dinners I have ever made...so fancy in fact that I now make it on regular old Thursday nights, because it's basically just a matter of tossing some rice in a pan with broth and white wine and some seafood and veggies and whatever else catches your fancy, paella-wise, and letting it all simmer together until it is done. When I think of all the paella I haven't eaten in my lifetime due to Paella Intimidation...well, let's not think about that after all. Instead let's make some! Read More & Get the Recipe
Baked Taco Frittata
Here's the thing about this baked taco frittata. I do love me a good omelet, and I wish I was one of those people who could make a good omelet. I'm not. I'm one of those people who try to make a good omelet, but end up making something that looks more like scrambled eggs with stuff in them. It tastes fine, but it's not very handsome. Which is why I think I love frittatas so much...especially the oven baked kind. No battling with your frying pan, just fluffy delicious eggs filled with scrumptious insides. In this case, chorizo sausage, jack cheese, taco sauce and crushed tortilla chips. Read More & Get the Recipe
Low Country Boil
The first time I had this ultimate Southern summer dish was with my husband's extended family down in South Carolina. (That was the time I had my first red-eye gravy, and my first Krispy Kreme doughnut, and not the first time I ever had grits but definitely the first time I had THAT MANY grits). One of the many, many things I love about my Atlanta-born husband is that I have been indoctrinated into Southern cooking, Southern music and Southern figures of speech. And this easy, spicy, relaxed Southern dish is one of my sentimental favorites. Read More & Get the Recipe
Cookie Sheet Clambake!
I should start out by confessing right here and now that I have never in my life been to an actual clambake. I think they involve things like digging a hole in the sand, and wrapping things in seaweed, and other feats that I know I am never, ever going to pull off. Not unless someone invites me to a clambake and tells me exactly what to do. I would make a great clambake assistant, I think. But since there are no clambake invitations on my calendar, and since I know they involve clams which I do love, I decided to take matters into my own hands and create my own clambake. INSIDE. With a cookie sheet instead of a pit. So with apologies to the clambake purists out there, here goes! Read More & Get the Recipe
Bangers and Mash
Happy Saint Patrick's Day one and all (or as my Irish mama calls it, The Day!)...it's finally here, and I know all of you are Irish today regardless of where your ancestors hail from. Mine hail from Ireland, which is why you won't catch me wearing any green today. My Irish grandmother Aileen alway said to me, "Kate, you should never wear green on Saint Patrick's Day because you don't need to - you have Irish blood in your veins!" I do eat all the Irish food around me though, including my mama's scones and brown bread, and of course the classic corned beef and colcannon. But if you want to mix things up a little on The Day, you could also do bangers and mash. These are just as much English as they are Irish, which introduces a little harmony as well. Plus they are easy and delicious, especially when you top them with a little onion gravy. Read More & Get the Recipe

The folks at DDB New York seem to think this happens often enough to dedicate a site to it. couldhavebeenbetter.com will house redesigns and improvements on concept that missed the mark or lacked a little something. Take the "Fifty Shades" trilogy, for example. It was wildly successful, but the team behind this website felt cover art was underwhelming, so they had photographer Simon Harsent shoot bondage scenes -- a repeated occurrence in the books -- and then proceeded to pixelate the images in precisely 50 shades of grey. Other revamps currently featured tackle the London tube's Oyster Card, reimagining as a ring, and birth certificates -- they're so important, but usually just as hard to look at. They will continue to add work as it comes up and since crowd-sourcing is the present and the future, ask those who have leads on anything that #CouldHaveBeenBetter to share it on social media platforms.

Heard the one about the world's oldest joke book? Er, it's not very funny. Clearly humour has moved on
Are the old ones the best ones? A new book tests the proposition. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to The Forum bills itself as "the world's oldest joke book". It is a new translation of Philogelos, or The Laughter-Lover, a compendium of cracks by Hierocles and Philagrios, two 4th-century Greeks , when Greece was in the Roman Empire.
Now the Romans were terrific conquerors, whose contributions to world civilisation include legal codes, architectural principles, baths, straight roads, Ovid, Virgil, Catullus and, of course, Asterix. But they are not famous for their gags. And, sadly, this book is not going

Balancing Water Conservation and Energy Needs
More than half the water in Georgia is used to make electricity. From nuclear to hydro-power, just about every river in the state has some kind of power plant on its banks. But as Georgia's population and energy needs grow, there are concerns about the health of rivers, especially in times of drought.

Georgia Power Closing Three Plants
Georgia Power says it will be shuttering three power plants for economic reasons. Two coal fired units at Plant Branch in Milledgeville will close in 2013. That's a result of federal regulation tightening air pollution controls. The company has said it's too costly to upgrade those units.

The Georgia Board of Natural Resources voted Wednesday morning to let Georgia Power delay putting pollution controls on some units at its coal-fired power plant in Milledgeville.

2016 Corporate Social Responsibility Report
EPRI completed a full corporate social responsibility assessment in 2015 culminating in release of its first Corporate Social Responsibility report. The report (and companion video) provides a comprehensive look at EPRI's social responsibility culture and actions around four focus areas: community, employees, operations, and research.

The magnitude of the challenge requires vigorous and parallel development and deployment of several technologies. To date, concerted technical progress toward the low-carbon future has been complicated as the focus shifts from option to option in the technology portfolio. Competing technologies and their champions often fall into the trap of "zero sum" thinking, where money or effort invested in one area requires reduced emphasis or commitment for a "competing" technology.
EPRI's research points to the need for a fundamental transformation of the power system if we are to achieve new levels of efficiency, reliability and sustainability—and more than incremental progress in decarbonizing electricity and transportation. The key is to integrate technologies in a transformative framework not just at the point of energy production, but along the energy value chain.
To meet the critical need for a comprehensive framework for action EPRI proposes "ElectriNetSM," a fundamental rethinking of how the electric sector and users of electricity harness diverse resources and interact to optimize energy production, management and use. ElectriNet will provide for new linkages and integration of advanced technological infrastructures.
