Is philosophy obsolete? Are the ancient questions still relevant in the age of cosmology and neuroscience, not to mention crowd-sourcing and cable news? The acclaimed philosopher and novelist Rebecca Newberger Goldstein provides a dazzlingly original plunge into the drama of philosophy, revealing its hidden role in today's debates on religion, morality, politics, and science.
At the origin of Western philosophy stands Plato, who got about as much wrong as one would expect from a thinker who lived 2,400 years ago. But Plato's role in shaping philosophy was pivotal. On her way to considering the place of philosophy in our ongoing intellectual life, Goldstein tells a new story of its origin, re-envisioning the extraordinary culture that produced the man who produced philosophy.
But it is primarily the fate of philosophy that concerns her. Is the discipline no more than a way of biding our time until the scientists arrive on the scene? Have they already arrived? Does philosophy itself ever make progress? And if it does, why is so ancient a figure as Plato of any continuing relevance? Plato at the Googleplex is Goldstein's startling investigation of these conundra.
She interweaves her narrative with Plato's own choice for bringing ideas to life - the dialogue.Imagine that Plato came to life in the twenty-first century and embarked on a multicity speaking tour. How would he handle the host of a cable news program who denies there can be morality without religion? How would he mediate a debate between a Freudian psychoanalyst and a tiger mom on how to raise the perfect child? How would he answer a neuroscientist who, about to scan Plato's brain, argues that science has definitively answered the questions of free will and moral agency? What would Plato make of Google, and of the idea that knowledge can be crowd-sourced rather than reasoned out by experts? With a philosopher's depth and a novelist's imagination and wit, Goldstein probes the deepest issues confronting us by allowing us to eavesdrop on Plato as he takes on the modern world.
"Dennis Holland has his work cut out for him as he must create a vocal identity for Plato and a host of other characters in this audiobook. He does well with creating a consistent fictional Plato, and, while not all his characters sound real, he does vocally guide listeners through the complex content." (AudioFile)

Was looking forward to it, can't bear it
I really looked forward to this. And there are some good parts, leading to introspection and deeper thought. But in some unfortunate convergence of story and narration the result is quite annoying. The voices make me cringe. The characters in the dialogs are horrible. And the overall impression is kinda of well, just downright annoying. Preachy, trite, a bit silly. It is in the end, perhaps just too patronizing. Like the author and/or narrator is "talking down" to the listener.
Probably not, but can't say for sure.
Not so sure about that. I have developed a pretty bad association at this point with some of the voices in this book.
Yes, the subject matter is potentially interesting, the context is a great idea, and at times it does deliver. It stretches you to think a little more about both yourself, the world around you and your reaction to it. But you pay a high price to get there, too high.
Don't talk down to your audience!
Wonderful book

The Anti Aging Cream evaluation is silky smooth, Skinnoir and moves onto your skin in a fashion that is new. Once it rubs in having a few rapid activities of the fingertips, it absorbs to the skin quite fast. After about two weeks of use the cream had rapidly entrenched itself inside the wrinkles that were existing on my face.

Kuwaiti Imam: Teach Your Child to Pray Every Night for Martyrdom
The above clip was documented and translated by The Middle East Media Research Institute.
In May 2004, Kuwaiti Imam Sheik Ahmad Al-Qattan said that mothers and fathers should teach their children every night, before they go to bed, "to go on raids to liberate Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa" and to recite the prayer for martyrdom together with them. Al-Qattan's statements were made on the Saudi Al-Iqra TV channel.

The tempestuous striker boiled over once again in Montenegro and now faces being ruled out of the early stages of next summer's finals - it is another cloud in a stormy career
By Jonathan Birchall
As England limply marched on toward Poland and Ukraine with a 2-2 draw against Montenegro, the ever-compelling one-man soap opera that is Wayne Rooney ran troublingly parallel.
The grim predictability of the Three Lions' second-half collapse, after having looked so comfortable at 2-0 just before half-time, was mirrored by the striker's proclivity to petulance, and rather than help turn the screw in Podgorica, one went loose for the Manchester United man.
Having lost out to Miodrag Dzudovic in the centre of the park with just over a quarter of an hour remaining, Rooney kicked out at the defender's legs in an act of mindless immaturity. Referee Wolfgang Stark rightly produced the red card to send the 25-year-old off and make him only the second England player of the 900 to have been capped to have been dismissed twice.
You can't help but think that it was an act of frustration borne out of more than a poor second-half showing, with the striker's father and uncle having both been arrested on Thursday for their alleged involvement in a betting scandal, but whether that begins to explain such recklessness is as irrelevant as it is conjecture.
|RED CARD! Wayne Rooney kicks out wildly after losing out in a physical battle and is sent for an early bath by the referee. Absolute insanity from the forward in a crucial tie here. He will now miss part of the Euro 2012 tournament if England manage to hold on
|Always looked to pull the strings for England, dropping deep more often than not. A remarkable moment of stupidity then saw the Manchester United talisman sent off for kicking out at Dzudovic and he will now miss the start of next year's finals
The automatic one-match ban that comes with a red card is not applicable to England's friendly fixture with Spain in November, meaning that Rooney will at the very least miss the Three Lions' opening Euro 2012 clash in Poland or Ukraine and, for the third time in his career, the striker will enter a major tournament with a cloud hanging over his head.
With concerns over a broken metatarsal suffered against Chelsea having plagued the United forward's build-up to the 2006 World Cup, that too was an episode of his own personal drama that was to end in post-red-mist shame. Having stamped on Ricardo Carvalho's groin before England crashed out to Portugal on penalties in Gelsenkirchen, the then-20-year-old's tender age somewhat admonished his actions, but five years older and supposedly wiser, such excuses no longer stand up to scrutiny.
Four years on in South Africa, speculation over Rooney's private life dominated the tabloids' discourse, as he, like the rest of his team-mates, completely underperformed before being dumped out in humiliating fashion to Germany in Bloemfontein. Now, once more, the forward will travel with not only the expectant weight of a nation on his shoulders, but the millstone of his own stupidity hanging loosely around his neck.
There may, however, be a slight silver lining in the cloud that rained all over England's qualification parade. Andrei Arshavin, then of Zenit St Petersburg, missed the first two fixtures of Russia's Euro 2008 campaign and went on to set the tournament alight in the latter stages.
Rooney has the quality to do the same, but such a limp performance from Capello's men on Friday evening raises questions over whether they would be able to cope without him - England were on top in the game when Rooney was pulling the strings.
Old habits die hard and after another indiscretion from the national team's most important player, there must surely be genuine fears that the former Everton man's tendency to cause a storm will never stop being a thorn in his or England's side.
It may be time for Capello to resign himself to the fact that his most explosive player also has the shortest fuse.

Push mowers are environmentally friendly and have come a long way in the years since portable gas mowers overtook the marketplace. These mowers now boast a more lightweight assembly and improved maneuverability. Although usually requiring more than one pass over a yard to properly trim the grass, many prefer the quiet appeal of bar mowers over their nosier and smellier counterparts. You can easily adjust push mowers to accommodate a cutting height range from 1/2 to 3 inches with a quick adjustment of the roller assembly.
Things You'll Need
- Wrench
- Screwdriver
- Newspaper
Locate and remove the nuts on either side of the roller assembly.
Move the bolts into the holes beneath the current setting on the plastic roller bracket if you wish to lower the cutting position. If you want to leave the grass longer, adjust the blades into a higher position on the bracket. Be sure to keep both sides equal when making the adjustment.
Re-tighten both of the nuts on the roller assembly.
Correct misalignment in the blades (either too tight or too loose) by adjusting the screws at the rear of the mower located on the bar blade beneath the reel pivots. The rear screws move the cutter blades forward towards the reel bar while the front ones move the blades away from the bar.
Tighten only in 1/16 inch increments as the screw adjustment mechanism is very sensitive. When adjusting or tightening one set of screws, be sure to loosen the opposing screws an equal amount.
Loosen both rear screws equally to allow more give in the blades by turning them in a counterclockwise motion; then tighten both of the front screws an equal amount by moving them clockwise. Tighten the blades by loosening both front screws equally in a counterclockwise motion and tightening the rear screws the same distance clockwise.
Tips & Warnings
- Check your blade adjustment by turning over the mower and inserting a piece of paper between the blades of the reel and the cutter bar, moving the blades by hand to make sure it slices evenly over the length of the cutter bar.
- Apply WD-40 regularly to all cutting surfaces, shaft and wheels to keep things working smoothly.

I'm planning on joining the San Diego Cake Show. It will be my first competition and I really have no idea what to expect. I feel so intimidated by looking at the pictures from the past years.
Anyways, I will be flying and will be checking parts of my cake in. I was wondering if anyone could give me any tips on how to package them safely (they will all be dummies of course).
Anyone have an experience with competition cakes being transported by plane?
At the same time, I'll use this as a chance to enjoy San Diego (it's my first time there) with my partner. I'll lean toward the vacation part so if I don't even place, I won't feel that bad.
No advice (I'm new to cake decorating) but I just wanted to say that I've seen your cakes and I think the competition should be worried. Your cakes are FANTASTIC!
Nope, but I wanted to say don't worry. You'll know you'll do fine.
I too have no advice on transporting, just wanted to wish you luck, you will blow them away, your cakes are awesome!
Thank you for the wishes. It just get really nervous especially that this is my first. I'm not even sure if the cake will make it there without any problems. So any tips would be great.
Well from what I've seen they do a majority of the work and travel with the cake assembled, as in driving to the competition. Your in Las Vegas and it's in San Diego, so thats not too bad of a drive if you take that route. They also finish up their detail work at the competition. And if I'm not mistaken, cause I know they did last year, ICES has a place you can go to, to do repairs if needed. If you gonna box them, I'm guessing lots of bubble wrap in a huge box with lots of peanuts...or you might call those styrofoam pieces popcorn, but you get my drift.
Rylan, why don't you contact someone like Sylvia Weinstock? I know she travels with real cakes all the time, so I am sure she has some good ideas....and it can't hurt to ask!
I also agree, they better watch out, your cakes are breathtaking!! Good luck, and above all, have fun!
Labellaflor, thanks for the tips. I was originally driving there but I had to switch plans. I was already thinking of the styrofoam peanuts but I was afraid that it would be too firm and might leave indentations to my fondant (my chocolate fondant takes a very long time to dry). I'm thinking of using cotton but I'm worrying about the lint getting through the darker fondant. I was wondering if there are any other ways I can package it. As for the detail work, I would finish some at the hotel.
Cindy, thanks a lot. I will contact her right now.
I wish I had that cake safe.
Make sure you include a CLEAR acetate panel in your packaging - it helps if people can SEE all your hard work!
Doesn't matter how much you explain things sometimes people just need to SEE!
Shave your beard and don't dress like a drug-runner!
Hey Ry, I do not have any advice on packaging, or shipping but I just wanted to say knock em dead.
Pam, you are funny! Maybe when they see a cake inside the box, they will be more careful. Hehe.
Allison, hehehe thanks!
You should pm Sugarshack. Sharon travels with cake dummies and they have been fine so maybe she could offer some advice. Good luck.
When Fran and Nati (& Min) did their PC Madhatters course in Sydney - they had to fly back home to Melbourne and TWO of the cakes were DESTROYED going through the x-ray scanning device (no care was taken by airport staff) and they were tipped over on the conveyor.
Although ....thinking OUR airport security is a LOT more vigilant than in the US- I've had to nearly strip off going through to bloody stop that metal detector! hehe With both of my 20-something daughters laughing their heads off on the other side tossing out comments like..... "They just want to get you NA-KED Mum !! eeewww!!
Just make sure you post some pix of the cakes after it's all over. I know they'll be spectacular.
Donna, I contacted her but she is away right now. Thanks for the heads up.
Pam, can't believe that happened. Wow, I'll make sure everything is safe. I have no idea how airlines are nowadays, its been a while since I rode a plane.
Poohsmomma, I will. Thanks!
now i have NO experience in delivering cakes but could you maybe pad around the cake with some sheets of foam? Like not the hard stuff just a softer medium density foam and that way you won't get any dints on your cake and of course that will only work is you don't have awhole lot of small delicate details on the side that could break off. If you need to fill in some areas you could always cut up some of the foam which will be softer than the packaging peanuts.
Anyhoo not sure but just throwing it out there lol Good luck!
Elise, thank you for that tip! I didn't really think of that. Now, I'll be searching for those.
Thanks a lot Elise!
that's ok it's just cose recently i was thinking about packaging for a gumpaste figure i am going to make so i needed to make it really safe so decided to try to put it in a groove between 2 pieces of foam in a box and hopefully that will cushion it enough for no bit of it to get damaged or atleast minimize it while being posted.
You could maybe go down to a store that cut pieces of foam up for different sizes for different purposes cose that's what i am going to do soon and they would have lots of different densities to choose from and maybe might be able to help as well
what about one of those clear cake boxes that someone invented. perhaps they could adapt it to have a small spike inthe bottom to go into the cake board to stop it shifting and a shorter spike that comes in from the top, since yours will be styrofoam and not able to push it all the way through. Then your cake would be centered and visible to everyone. You might even see if they would discount it and you can take lots of pictures for them on how the cake travels and fairs at the end. I agree your cake needs to be visible for anyone to take a little more care with it. good luck.
I have no experience with cake packaging, but memory foam - like mattress toppers - might be a product to consider. It is firm yet cushy. But, if you can get your display there in good condition, you'll knock 'em dead in the competition
Thank you everyone for all the tips! I really really appreciate the help.
Just wanted to say good luck! I don't have any ideas on how to get your cake there safely but I'm learning alot from reading the posts that offer advise . Best of luck to you, can't wait to hear about your trip.
Speaking of contacting someone...what about Duff? He's had episodes or maybe just one???.... where he travelled via plane with cake. Not sure if he's a generous fellow but maybe?
Oh - and I'm sure you've done this but what are the airline rules? Are there things to make it easier? Just a thought - Good Luck & don't forget to have a blast!!!!

This US heavy rock band revolves around the diminutive figure of Sully Erna (Salvatore Paul Erna, 7 February 1968, Lawrence, Massachusetts, USA), a self-confessed witch from Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Erna had played drums with local Boston band Strip Mind, before taking a year long break from music. He formed Godsmack (named after an Alice In Chains song) in 1995 with Robbie Merrill (b. 13 June 1963, Norwood, Massachusetts, USA; bass), Tommy Stewart (drums) and Lee Richards (guitar). The latter pair only lasted a few months, and were replaced by Tony Rombola (b. 24 November 1964, Lawrence, Massachusetts, USA; guitar/vocals) and Joe DArco (drums). The new line-up, with Erna playing drums, recorded a self-titled album in 1996 on a budget of $2500 and sold it through local retail chain Newbury Comics. Local radio station WAAF picked up the track Keep Away for heavy rotation, and the band also came to the attention of ex-Extreme drummer Paul Geary...

I have a basic tool box which I am now unable to shut as I have too much cake decorating stuff in it. It is also very disorganized as I just chuck everything in. Does anyone know of any useful sites that I can buy a proper craft box with compartmants for colourings etc.. Do these boxes have a special name?
I would skip the craft stores and go straight to a hardware store to get a real toolbox. Craft stores tend to stock the "cute and pretty" stuff for "girls" ..... not designed for real workers with real tools and real needs of real space. If you have that much stuff, it's time to upgrade from cutesy to a real working storage box!
I have a plastic cart with 7 drawers, on wheels, that I keep my cake stuff in, except for my yucky Wilton colors, which I keep in a clear plastic shoebox so I can clean it up easily when they leak. The cart was cheap and I can roll it into the kitchen when I need it. It works well because the top drawers are shallow so it's easy to find my cutters and gumpaste tools. The bottom drawers are deep enough for my candy molds and mats and boxes of disposable bags, etc...
I also have a toolbox (from the hardware dept) that I use for an emergency kit when I take a cake somewhere.
I also have a toolbox (from the hardware dept) that I use for an emergency kit when I take a cake somewhere.
Good idea also. I have a 3-compartment caddy that holds my camera, a bag of icing, my spatula, ribbon, scissors and some extra tips. I think I found it in the bathroom aisle (great for carrying soaps/shampoos from your dorm room to the community shower!)
I have a fishing tackle box that that I also use,has a lot of little compartments.
I use the Wilton toolbox for my tips, frosting bags & Wilton colors. A shoebox sized rubbermaid for my Americolor colors and the plastic cart with drawers for the rest of my tools, works pretty well for me. My huge walk in pantry that I thought I would never fill now has shelves overflowing with ingredients, cake pans, cake drums and boxes.
I use a fishing tackle box....it seems to work well

that's effed up. no respect. maybe they'll get taught some another way...
well before you set these two up for a potential nature lovers beat down... are you sure they didn't find a dead turtle on the beach and pose with it? Or is it confirmed these two found a live turtle, slit its throat and started a photoshoot?

unfortunately I was assuming something got ahold of the turtle and the guys found it that way. Gave them the benefit of the doubt I guess. My issue with it was I can't think of why anyone would want to memorialize their finding of a dead, throat slit turtle with smiling photos for their twitterface pages, and that alone showed a lack of respect for their surroundings.

Gororin was a cactus monster created by the Xiliens to attack Godzilla Island.
Created by the Xilien known as Landes, the aliens sent the cactus to Godzilla Island in the night, where it got the attention of several of the daikaiju that lived on the island. The following night, Anguirus checked out the cactus - which turned out to in fact be a daikaiju itself called Gororin.
Although Anguirus fought the cactus after it attacked him, the G- Guard Commander told off Anguirus for causing a ruckus. Gororin, however, grew large spines on its body and detached itself from the ground. Firing needles in every direction and rolling along, Gororin slammed into anything in its way. Now seeing the monster as a threat, Godzilla and several of the island's monsters tried to stop it - but Godzilla's atomic breath had no effect on the monster while Gororin itself was also too fast; knocking down any monster in its way.
Gororin soon tried to attack Anguirus, although it bounced off the mutated dinosaur's spiky shell. As Anguirus managed to save the G-Guard Commander who had scolded him earlier from Gororin by pinning the creature between his shell and the cliff-side, Gororin's spines dug into the creature's shell - causing agony for Anguirus. Furthermore, The other daikaiju weren't able to get close enough to help as Gororin continuously fired a hail-fire of its needles at them. Even Godzilla - despite his attempts to aid his dinosaur ally - was unable to get close as he was struck continuously by the needles.
Thankfully, help would soon arrive. Nao - piloting the mecha known as M.O.G.U.E.R.A - managed to apply a special type of weedkiller to Gororin, which caused the monster's spines to fall off and for it to lose its needle attack. Now no harm to anyone, Godzilla and the other monsters kicked the creature around like a soccer ball. It's end finally came when Godzilla kicked it extra hard into the air - where the creature collided with the Xilien ship and was destroyed on impact; its brief reign of terror over at last.

The American Copy Editors Society has named Adam Smith, night news editor at The Augusta Chronicle , the 2007 Robinson Prize winner, the society's highest award.
The announcement was made Friday at the 12th National Conference in Denver. Mr. Smith is the third recipient of the award that focuses on excellence over the range of skills and contributions in editing.
The society is a professional organization dedicated to improving the quality of journalism and the working lives of journalists, according to the group's Web site.
A panel of seven judges noted that Mr. Smith's "all-around excellence in editing, design, project work, deadline skills and education/outreach impressed the judges, who couldn't find a hole in his game. While the other candidates were strong, Adam quickly rose to the top of each judge's first ballot."
In the 10 years Mr. Smith has worked at The Chronicle , he has complemented his daily editing skills by updating the newspaper's stylebook, creating headline-writing guides and producing The WriteThru , an in-house style publication that points out editing successes and failures.
"Adam's creativity ... sets him apart," Chronicle Presentation Editor Traci Long said. "He is not afraid to take editing risks, within text and in design, which consistently inject our pages with personality and an element of surprise."
Mr. Smith is considered a major contributor to The Chronicle 's award-winning Masters Tournament coverage, both as a coordinator for the Masters preview and daily sections and in his creation of a day-in-review page, which combines graphic elements and synopses to recap each day on the golf course.
Chronicle News Editor John Gogick's description of Mr. Smith in a letter of recommendation captures the focus of the Robinson Prize: "Adam resolves conflicts, makes copy better, writes great heads, takes risks with design, enforces style and uses sound, well-reasoned news judgment. The most important thing he does: Uphold our standard, 'Think like readers, act like editors.' "

�Thyladomid� is a 24 Year old German producer and DJ. He was
born in Cologne into a musical family and began learning piano at
the age of 5years. His first impressions of �Club Culture� started in
2006 when he had the opportunity to accompany a well-known DJ.
Infected, he decided to invest all the money he managed to earn
into buying production equipment. All his time and energy went into
producing �electronic� music and achieved within a short period a
professional level. In 2007 the project �Thyladomid� was born and
in the same Year Charles Thiemann alias �Thyladomid� had his first
digital release and made his first DJ appearance in a club in Neuss.
Since then the name �Thyladomid� became widely known in the
region. The experience gathered in various gigs at home and abroad
broadened his spectrum in the electronic music scene. Charles was
influenced by the new trend �House� and began producing in this
direction. Steve Lawler took notice of his talent and in October 2009
had his first release on the renowned British label �VIVa Music�. In
the summer of 2010 he released his first EP on the Berlin label �Off
Recordings� the title �The Voice� held the no.1 position of
the �Beatport Deep House Charts� for six weeks and became the
summer hit of 2010. In March 2011 he received a reward from
the �Winter Music Conference� in Miami.
At the same time he started connecting with "Adriatique" from Switzerland. Together they set up a new music project and their first release was on Solomun's new "2DIY4" label. Later in 2011 a release on his big Label "Diynamic" was followed.

Hieronymus Bosch, Cutting the Stone (Extraction of the Stone of Folly)
Museo del Prado, Madrid
Date: 1488-1516
Technique: Oil on panel, 47.5 x 34.5 cm
The stone of folly or the stone of madness refers to a hypothetical procedure in the 15th century involving trepanation and extraction of a stone, thought to be the cause of the patient's madness.
2 comments:
So much ignorance. There is a similar one by Jan Sanders van Hemessen, called "The Stonecutter", 1554-1550. I read that the "surgeon" used to hide the stone and then performed something like a magic trick for it to seem like he took it from the patient skull, who probably died later.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the tip and info.ReplyDelete

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I added 3 topics on this particular card and the designer actually re-did it so that the overall designing of this card is consistent throughout. Very happy with the job that they did."
"The design and quality of this card is AMAZING. Hats off for the extraordinarily fast and simple purchasing and customising of this product. Will definitely use again!"
"Instead of a "direction" card I am using this as a "More Info" card to send out with my save the dates. It is the perfect size and I was able to put hotel information & wedding website on it, The designer was awesome to work with !"
"I loved the products! On the invitation I got the pearl shimmer but you can barely see it. The texture of the RSVP cards and the direction/reception cards was much better. I chose sandstone for all of my cards. Our colors are egplant and tan/sand. At first I thought I had chosen a light purple but it must have been my monitor but I loved our save the dates which were also "On The Shoreline" and sandstone so I went with it. I was afraid it was going to be too plain but I feel they are perfect! Text was made to fit I am very satisfied with these invitations I just wish there was more shimmer. Great invitations! Very happy!"
"Our designer helped us with our response cards and invitations but did BY FAR the most work on the enclosure cards. She let us do front and back, organized everything so perfectly, and suggested different ways for us to lay everything out. I couldn't be more appreciative or happy with how they came out!"

It's been eight years since my previous release - it's about time to pick up the trail! My new album - LEGACY - is out now! LEGACY is the fifth chapter in the Between Interval saga, continuing the story right where I left it with The Edge of a Fairytale some eight years ago. The new album itself took roughly a year to compose, but inspiration from all those silent years is somewhat accumulated in the music. The album is mastered by Howard Givens at Spotted Peccary and sleeve artwork is done by acclaimed visual artist Michal Karcz.
This new album of mine places itself somewhere within the vast ambient genre, sometimes sidestepping a bit into electronica before morphing into deep space music, synthesizer sequences with hints of Berlin school, and even treading into the delay heavy realms of dub techno. LEGACY is out on CD and as digital/downloads, as well as in a beautiful limited edition colored vinyl/LP! All formats are ready to order here!
Due to the physical limitations of the vinyl format, this version of the album is carefully and tenderly edited down to about 44 minutes - roughly 22 minutes per side. Each vinyl includes a download card for the extended digital version of the album, so you won't miss out on any music. The vinyl is limited to 500 copies, so make sure you get one early. Once they're sold out, they might be hard to get a hold of! If you are located on another continent, chances are that your local resellers also have both the CD and vinyl in stock, so just google it if shipping from the US is a bit too pricey.
Thank you for listening!
Between Interval - LEGACY, out now on CD, digital and vinyl!

This invention relates generally to the field of selective call systems, such as pager systems, and to the field of monitoring of equipment and/or buildings, such as in security systems, fire alarm systems, automated process control, computer equipment monitoring and other such fields in which equipment is employed which generates data in the form of character strings. Such fields would include generation of information such as financial services information, weather information or the like.
In existing installations, it is known to have a number of condition sensors distributed about a building, with these sensors feeding a central control terminal having an output device, typically a monitoring screen and a printer, which is monitored by a security guard. The condition sensors generate messages which appear on the monitor screen. Such messages might be "fire in building two" or "gate three open", or the like. It is a problem with such an arrangement that the security guard must remain close to the screen and must keep a continuous watch of the screen in order to ensure that important messages are not missed.
Systems have been devised in which the condition sensors generate a dedicated message, typically characterized by an address, which is recognized by a centrally located computer, the computer initiating the transmission of a paging message to a paging receiver.
One such system is that made by Computer X, Inc. and Motorola C & E Inc. using the Computer X single virtual machine (cXSDM trademark) such a system can be used for factory floor control, communicating events and status directly to maintenance, engineering, quality, management, personnel, avoiding the need for operators whose main function is merely monitoring the system and alerting personnel to events and/or problems. At each condition sensor location there is a cell controller which carries out various functions associated with that location and may include displaying or generating of condition messages. The cell controllers are all connected to a common bus, and a further cell controller, having a paging transmitter, is connected to the bus. Each of the condition sensor controllers is programmed to generate a signal when particular conditions are sensed and that signal is recognized by the paging transmitter cell controller as being intended for that cell controller, whereupon a paging message is transmitted to an appropriate pager according to the coded message received from the condition sensor cell controller.
A further system is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,692,742 of Raizen et al, in which a plurality of locations are monitored by sensors which transmit alarm signals to a central control station by radio or telephone, each alarm being encoded to identify a particular sensor location and alarm condition. A computer at the control station actuates a radio or telephone transmitter to transmit signals notifying an appropriate one of a plurality of satellite stations, such as paging receivers, of the particular alarm condition.
Each of the above systems has the disadvantage that some sort of programming is necessary at the condition sensor location, so that the necessary coded message is transmitted to the control station, for the control station to receive that message and act upon it. This means that a substantial programming effort is necessary to set up the system, especially where there are a large number of individual condition sensor locations, or where the different devices sensing various conditions differ. Thus, for example the condition sensors may include equipment manufactured by different manufacturers, operating on different programming languages and using different interfaces. It is not always possible to ensure that all the condition sensing devices are the same. For example, the Computer X system is intended as a system to be designed and built as a whole, in which each of the cell controllers is identical. It would be desirable to design a system into which existing equipment could be incorporated, without the need to introduce additional programming to the existing equipment. In this way, the equipment that could be monitored is extremely wide, and could include dedicated condition sensors, monitoring terminals, printers, personal computers, photocopying machines and indeed any equipment that generates data in the form of character strings.
This invention provides a selective call system comprising: means for receiving data including predetermined strings of characters; means for monitoring data received, said means including string searching means; control means responsive to the string searching means for selectively generating an address of a selective call receiver when a predetermined string is identified; and transmitting means responsive to the control means for calling the selective call receiver identified by that address.
The data may be generated by any data generating means capable of generating data including predetermined strings of characters.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention predetermined text/messages is/are stored and selected for transmission to the selected call receiver, the text or message selected being dependent on the predetermined string identified.
In one specific embodiment of the invention, means are provided for reading data in the form of text containing the predetermined string (from a data bus) and for transmitting the text to the selective call receiver. As a further feature, means for storing predetermined text may be provided, and selector means for selecting additional text for transmission to the selective call receiver together with said text, the additional text selected being dependent on the predetermined string identified.
In a further specific embodiment, means are provided for reading numerical data from the data bus and for calculating the address to which a message is to be sent, by performing a predetermined algorithm on the numerical data read.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 illustrates a selective call system according to the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing the overall operation of an embodiment of the invention.
FIGS. 3-9 are additional flow charts complementing the flow chart of FIG. 2 showing additional features of the overall operation of an embodiment of the invention.
As an example of an embodiment of the invention, the invention will be described in the form of a condition monitoring system for monitoring a number of items of equipment, and employing a paging transmitter as transmitting means, and a paging receiver as a selective call receiver.
Referring to FIG. 1 there are shown three input devices in the form of a security monitoring system 10, a production line control system 11 and a local area network of computer terminals 12. Each of these devices/systems is connected to a common data bus 13. Also connected to the data bus 13 is a printer 14, with an associated video monitor (not shown).
In normal use, each of the devices/systems 10, 11 and 12 is arranged to send messages to the printer 14 via the bus 13, and a member of personnel will monitor the printer 14 and its video monitor to ensure smooth running of each of the devices/systems 10, 11 and 12. Each of the input devices will be arranged to output its own individual messages, depending on the function of that device. Thus, for example, the security system 10 may be arranged to output messages such as "fire in building 2", "gate 3 open" and the like. Similarly, system 11 will be arranged to output messages such as "power failure in line 2", "sensor 15 faulty", or the like. In the same manner, local area network 12 may be arranged to output to the printer 14 messages such as "incorrect security code entered on terminal 3", "terminal 4 not receiving characters" or the like. In addition to sending messages to the printer 14, the devices 10, 11 and 12 may be arranged to send messages to each other. Thus, a particular piece of apparatus in the production line being monitored by control system 11 may be arranged to send a message to a particular terminal in the network of terminals 12, such as the terminal of the technician responsible for that piece of equipment. This may be a message which is not read by printer 14.
Connected to data bus 13 is a port 16, leading to a paging terminal 17. Alternative to there being a single data bus between all the items 10, 11, 12, 14 and 17, and a single port to the terminal 17, there may instead be different connections, e.g. items 11, 12 and 14 may be connected via an RS232 interface, while system 10 is not connected to any of the devices 11, 12 and 14, but is connected to terminal 17 via a Centronics-type interface.
In all the above cases, the net effect is that the terminal 17 is capable of receiving any characters that the devices 10, 11, 12 and indeed 14, are capable of providing.
Terminal 17 comprises a microcomputer 18, memories 19 and 20, data buses 21 and 22 and other components not shown. The micro computer 18 is connected to a paging transmitter 22 which is in communication with paging receivers 23 and 24.
The operation of the terminal 17 is as follows. Microcomputer 18 reads characters from the data bus 13 via port 16, as they are output one-by-one on the data bus 13 by the devices 10, 11, 12 and 14. It will be understood that any data present on bus 13 is presented to port 16. It is not necessary to address the data to that port.
Microcomputer 18 stores a sequence of a predetermined number of characters, say 24 characters, representing the maximum string that can be searched. Microcomputer 18 reads pre-programmed strings from a list of strings in memory 19, and compares these strings with the strings of 24 characters received from port 16. If there is no match between the string received and any of the strings stored, no further action is taken until the next character is received by port 16. Upon receipt of a new character, this is added to the string of characters stored in microcomputer 18, all the characters therein are shifted along, and the earliest character to have been received is discarded. The comparison operation with the list of strings in the memory 19 is then repeated. These operations are shown in the flow diagram of FIG. 2.
In FIG. 2, the example is taken where there are eight strings in memory 19, which the terminal is searching for and to which the terminal will respond. A string code register stores a string code N identifying that string. N is a number from 1 to 8. The flow diagram begins with a wait instruction 30, at which microcomputer 18 waits for the next character to be presented to port 16. At step 31, the new character is read, and at step 32 the existing received characters are shifted by one position, the earliest character is discarded, and the new character is added to the string for comparison. At step 34, the string of characters so received is compared with string N from the list in memory 19. Initially, N=1. If there is no match, this is detected by step 34, and the program proceeds to step 35. This step tests whether all the strings in the list have been compared. In this case, only the first string has so far been compared and the program proceeds to step 36, where N is incremented. The next string from the list is then compared in step 33, and so on until either a match is detected or all the strings have been compared. In the latter case, the program proceeds to step 37, where N is reset to 1, and then at step 30 the program waits for the next characters. If a match is detected at step 34, microcomputer 18 performs a look-up operation in the table of memory 20, by inputting the string code N, and reading the address and the message which are pre-programmed to correspond to that code (step 38). Finally, in step 39, this address and message are transmitted. The paging receiver 23 or 24 corresponding to that address will react to receipt of that address by displaying the message, emitting an alarm signal, or performing other functions, as is known in the art.
Further details of the match operation of step 34 will now be described. By way of example, it will be assumed that the data presented on data bus 13 takes the form of lines of text, each line terminating in a particular character (usually a carriage-return character). As is known in existing string search algorithms, the use of "wild card" (or instructional) characters "?" and "*" may be used to mean "any character" and "any number of any characters", respectively.
Examples will now be given of possible strings and string search operations.
EXAMPLE 1 (refer to FIG. 3)
Triggering Text String: *URGENT
This triggering text string will cause (block 34) a page to be sent (blocks 38 and 39) for any line of text which ends with the string "urgent" (block 40).
EXAMPLE 2 (refer to FIG. 4)
Triggering Text String: FIRE IN BUILDING?
This triggering text string will cause (block 34) a page to be sent (blocks 38 and 39) for each line matching gate string, where ? may be any character (block 42).
Triggering Text String: *
This triggering text string will send a page for every line, regardless of its contents.
For each of the above triggering text strings, there is a pager number stored in memory, identifying the pager to be paged. In the following further examples, there are shown methods by which the pager number can be determined as a function of the characters received.
Variable pager numbers are programmed by specifying a fixed "starting number" and a "+" character. When the paging terminal encounters "+", it will add to the starting number the value of all characters associated with the first "wild card" string of the triggering text string. (Where a "wild card" string contains letters instead of digits, numerical values will be assigned; i.e., A=1, B=2, etc.).
Triggering Text String: FIRE IN BUILDING ?
Pager number : 120+
This pager number will cause (block 34) pager number 120 (block 38) plus (block 46) the value of ? (block 44) to be paged (block 39), e.g. if ? matches the character "3" in the actual message line, then pager number 123 will be paged.
Triggering Text String: GATE * OPEN.
Pager number: 54+
This pager number will cause page number 54 plus the value of * to be paged, e.g. if * matches the string 23 in the actual message line, then pager number 77 will be paged (54+23).
For unusual cases where there may be more than one "wild card" character used in the triggering text string, a variable pager number may be entered as "starting number" plus n, where n signifies that the nth wild card occurrence is to be used.
Triggering Text String:
Pager number: 120+3
This pager number will cause (block 34) pager number 120 (block 38) plus (block 46) the value of ? (block 48), the third "wild card" to be paged (block 39).
Display Data programming may be accomplished by specifying both fixed data and variable data to be determined from the line of input text which triggers the page. This feature works similarly to the programming of variable digits in the pager number, i.e., through "wild card" values, except that letters will not be converted to numbers.
Triggering Text String: * URGENT (block 34)
Display Data: + (block 38) This Display Data will send (block 39a) all characters of the matching line of input, except for the word "URGENT".
Triggering Text String: * URGENT (block 34)
Display Data: + URGENT (block 38)
This Display Data will send (block 39b) all characters of the matching line, plus the word "URGENT".
Triggering Text String: FIRE IN BUILDING ? (block 34)
Display Data: + (block 38)
This Display Data will send (block 39c) only the value represented by ? (Presumably a number which could be received by a numeric pager.)
Triggering Text String: GATE * OPEN
Display Data: GATE + OPEN
This Display Data will send the entire matching line.
Triggering Text String: * FIRE * BUILDING ? AT * (block 34)
Display Data: FIRE ! GO TO BUILDING +3 (block 38).
This Display Data will send (block 39) "FIRE! GO TO BUILDING n" where n is replaced (block 50) by the character (block 48) between "BUILDING" and "AT" (the third "wild card").
A complete programming scenario is described below.
An existing alarm reporting system provides data in the following format to a single port 16 on the paging terminal 17: TIME, ALARM TYPE, LOCATION, and COMMENT.
There are three types of alarms: FIRE, INTRUSION, and POWER LOSS. LOCATION is the word "BUILDING", followed by a two-digit number from 01 to 24. COMMENT is an alphanumeric string of 0 to 40 characters.
It is desired that group pages be sent to the fire fighting team, the security team, or the electricians for the three types of alarms, respectively. These pages should include the nature of the alarm, the location, and the comment, if any. The following programming example will accomplish the desired results.
Triggering Text String: * FIRE BUILDING *
Pager Number: 2149
Display Data: FIRE- GO IMMEDIATELY TO BUILDING+2
Triggering Text String: * INTRUSION BUILDING *
Pager Number: 2471
Display Data: INTRUSION IN BUILDING+2
Triggering Text String: * POWER LOSS BUILDING *
Pager Number: 2311
Display Data: POWER FAILURE IN BUILDING +2
After being programmed as shown the message "09:47 POWER LOSS BUILDING 16 MAIN TRANSFORMER ROOM" would generate a page to pager number 2311, with the display message "POWER FAILURE IN BUILDING 16 MAIN TRANSFORMER ROOM". A non-programmed message such as "14:23 DOOR OPEN BUILDING 07 DELIVERY AREA" would not generate any page.
The feature and all associated programming is controlled by the System Operator via VDT screens and commands.
Each port may be programmed for sending up to 25 text-matching pages. Typically up to four such ports may exist on a single paging terminal.
Pages generated automatically by text-matching methods are treated the same as other pages arriving via normal inputs, as is known in the art. Priority, the number of repeats, output area, etc., are all determined the same as for any other pages. It is possible, however, to designate any or all text-matching ports to be elevated priority inputs, the same as may be done with any other inputs.
For some systems each alarm message printout may require multiple lines. For these systems it will be necessary to be able to program either the nth carriage return character, or some other character or series of characters as the end-of-message delimiter. It may be desirable to be able to program the paging terminal to automatically dial one or more telephone numbers and send an audible message. This feature may be particularly useful with the feature below.
It may be desirable to limit some or all of the text-matching programmed actions to specific time periods and/or days of the week. For example, it may be desirable to have a specific alarm message send a page during normal business hours, and dial a phone number during non-business hours.
The invention has been described with reference to condition sensor systems, but it will be appreciated that it may be applied to many other applications where it may be advantageous to monitor data for predetermined strings and make paging calls in response thereto. For example, in financial services, a system could be programmed to monitor share information services or other news information services. For example, a triggering text string might be "General Electric 50", which would cause an interested party to be paged when that stock reached a price of 50 dollars.

Need more details on Match fields for Jotform Integration with Constant ContactAsked by hipharp on August 06, 2015 at 11:43 AM
I love that Jotform integrates with Constant Contact but I don't understand the "Match form fields" option and what it actually DOES. Does it only MATCH or does it also FEED data?
(I read this page thoroughly , by the way - it's great - but doesn't answer my question: http://www.jotform.com/blog/51-JotForm-Now-Integrates-with-Constant-Contact)
I want it to match email addresses - but I don't want it to create a new contact if someone types their own name slightly differently.
I DO want Jotform to feed people's names and country/state if they're NEW contacts - and to UPDATE that info in current records.
How can I find out what you really mean by "match" and how to make sure it DOESN'T duplicate slightly-different-name contacts and DOES update info in already-subscribed contacts?
(A jotform user since ... um ... 2012 I think! And love the new changes)
The match fields allows you to map jotform fields to fields in constant contact, this way the form data will be inserted into theses matched fields
By default entries are matched based on the email address so if an email address already exists the details will be updated for the existing one.
I hope this clarifies the integration for you
Thanks Sammy -- I appreciate this ... but also got a completely different response from someone else at Jotform Support:
Answered by BDAVID
When you match JotForm fields and Constant Contact fields, it means that each time your form is submitted a new contact is created. It does not mean it will update your already created contacts.
This is pretty scary if it's true and a sure recipe for disgruntled customers. Which answer is actually true??
JotForm Support
Our apologies for the confusion, but Sammy's reply is correct. I think BDAVID meant something different.
Hello I created a custom form with jotform and add to my website but I need the name and email to add to constant contact but when add click intrigration doesnt give the options of the name of email that was created, how can i do that
JotForm Support
You have created your own thread with regards to the constant contact integration, will address you there instead. Here's the link:

Just him. If I'm really into him then it will be exciting no matter what. Sorry if that's not very helpful, I'm not sure how to explain it really.
It just depends how much I fancy him - if I'm not excited about/by kissing him, then it's a bad sign and I tend to end up dumping him.00|00|0
That's insightful. Thanks for sharing
You're welcome, glad to help :)
