Career Path
Make time for success
by Wai Ting
Some people take years to discover their life's calling. Others are born into it. As a third-generation watchmaker, Roland Buser, managing director, Chopard Hong Kong Limited, belongs to the second group and he takes pride in offering unique contemporary design that follows the time honoured traditions of craftsmanship sought by serious collectors and global customers alike. "Craftsmanship isn't something that modern technology can replace," he says.
With watch making practically part of his genetic makeup, Mr Buser's career path was set. His profession soon took him around the world, giving him invaluable experiences in mainland China, the US, India, Thailand and Malaysia, where he worked mainly in production dealing with technical issues.
Consequently, he became involved in management responsibilities at a very early stage in his career. This, in turn, provided him with the necessary experience to move into senior positions at the large luxury-product groups he worked for in due course.
Asian focus
Few objects symbolise status and quality as well as a luxury watch made with Swiss precision and ingenuity. The fine craftsmanship and design required to produce an exquisite timepiece has turned the profession into big business.
In 1997, Mr Buser moved to Hong Kong, aiming to concentrate on the retail side of the luxury-watch business. Once again, he moved quickly through the ranks and was eventually offered the coveted opportunity to work for esteemed timepiece and jewellery manufacturer Chopard, managing its Greater China region. His initial goal was to build up this business area from nothing to a 200-strong team in six years.
An independent company, Chopard's customer service approach focuses particularly strongly on quality, while some larger groups are more focused on quantity, for example, by continuously expanding their number of stores. Chopard targets its products specifically at individual customers. Many large firms tend to outsource their production, so that employees end up having less "connection" with the products and therefore often more of a quantitative approach, says Mr Buser.
Tricks of the trade
Considering the glamorous image portrayed by internationally renowned luxury-watch companies and their customers plus the endorsements by famous sportspeople and celebrities, many young designers would give anything to secure a career future with them.
To work in the luxury-watch industry, contenders need experience, as well as a thorough knowledge of the trade in addition to sensitivity to global trends. The dynamics of different firms can vary greatly, but a passion for the product, integrity, and a positive attitude are universal requirements for making it in the industry, says Mr Buser, explaining that the latter means "coming to work happy, being happy to work, sharing and interacting with colleagues and then leaving work happy".
In line with its client-oriented approach, Chopard places a firm emphasis on training its employees on customer service and sales techniques, reveals Mr Buser, adding that the company is also investing in developing young talent and providing opportunities for them.
Since there are no tertiary institutions in Greater China that provides formal training or qualifying education for watchmakers or people wanting to work in related industries, the firm understands that it cannot only employ people who are already in the trade. Job candidates with a good educational background, the necessary interest in the field and the right attitude, who land a job with the company, will therefore also be provided with the necessary scope for growth.
There is no standard career path in the watchmaking sector. People from all walks of life, with different types of vocational, technical, cultural and geographical experience, enter the industry, Mr Buser points out.
The pace of career progression also varies from company to company, with different norms according to the organisation's "country of origin", business scope and structure.
However, the profession is quintessentially centred on products and people's relationship with those products, Mr Buser says. "A real passion for the trade therefore goes a long way and can ultimately be the force that propels people to the top of the field," he says.

Cycling in Suffolk
7th April 2017
Cycling in Suffolk
Suffolk is a cyclists' paradise, the county is full of beautiful views, unspoilt landscape, plenty of woods and forests, 50 miles of coast, and thousands of quiet country roads. As a cyclist, you can take advantage of the tracks where cars are not able to access, giving you the opportunity to explore the stunning Suffolk countryside in a way that you may have never seen, and of course, it's a brilliant form of exercise.
Our favourite route is Dunwich and Minsmere. The route begins at Dunwich, just outside our little pub, so if you're heading out early, why not pop by for a delicious breakfast first to set you on your way. The route then continues onto Westleton, while in Westleton, you may stumble across our sister inn, The Westleton Crown, where they would love to welcome you with a refreshing drink or a spot of lunch. From Westleton you will head to Minsmere where you can experience the beautiful coastal nature reserve and get a glimpse of some of the UK's rarest wildlife. From here you can carry on to Greyfriars Priory and sit amongst the ruins which is a perfect spot to have a well-earned relaxing break, then continue back to Dunwich where an ice cream on the beach will be waiting for you.
There are many other fantastic routes to explore in Suffolk and plenty of places to hire bikes. Below we have listed several sites that will help you find the perfect route and provide you with more information.

Suffolk holds several cycling events throughout spring and summer. We have put together a list of the most popular ones in the coming months.
The first one takes place on the 7th May and this is the Suffolk Sunrise 100. Suffolk Sunrise 100 is a charity event, raising money for Action Medical Research for children. In previous years, this event has set off with over 1,300 riders. The cyclists head out to explore the country lanes of Suffolk which were made especially for cycling with little traffic, superb countryside and coastal scenery.
Suffolk Sunrise 100
Dunwich Dynamo, another great cycling event, one for the experience cyclists! This event takes place on the 8th and the 9th of July. Dunwich Dynamo is an unsupported ride that gets bigger every year. The event starts at the Pub in the Park in London Fields, Hackney, with riders leaving between 8pm and 9pm and arriving to Dunwich from 4am ready for a quick swim in the sea and a well-deserved rest here at The Ship at Dunwich. The Ship at Dunwich will be opening at 4am on Sunday 9th of July ready to greet cyclists with a breakfast and a beer.
The Suffolk Coast Bike Ride will take place on the 23rd July. The event is dedicated to raise money for the East Anglian Air Ambulance. You will spend the day cycling around the heathland, fields and coast of the Suffolk countryside. There are 3 routes to choose from, a 35-mile-ride, a 65-mile-ride, or a 100-mile-ride.
Another very popular cycling event in Suffolk is Cycling Weekly Suffolk Spinner Sportive. This event takes places on the 30th July and gives you the opportunity to explore the historic Suffolk, while experiencing the county's rolling rural roads and short climbs in the best way possible - by bike.

text: The Regulatory Oversight Committee (ROC) of the Global Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) system has published a consultation paper on including data on branches into the Global LEI System (GLEIS). The ROC proposes a policy standard for the GLEIS that would allow LEIs to be issued to branches where the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the branch is an international branch; (ii) the branch is registered in a publicly accessible local business registry or local regulatory register in its host country; and (iii) the head office (or headquarters) of the branch already has an LEI. This would mean that the LEI of the headquarter entity could always be associated with the LEI of the international branch in the GLEIS. Comments are invited by 16 November 2015.

Grow borax crystals around a star shape to produce a crystal star that may be used as an ornament or decoration.

Borax Crystal Star Materials

borax

water

pipe cleaner (chenille craft stick)

food coloring (optional)

Grow a Borax Crystal Star

Shape a pipe cleaner into a star. It's a good idea to leave one end long so you can hang the star in the crystal growing solution.

Prepare a saturated borax solution by dissolving as much borax as possible into boiling hot water. You'll know you have a saturated solution when borax powder starts to accumulate on the bottom of the container.

Stir in food coloring, if desired.

Hang the star in a clean container (such as a coffee mug or glass) and pour the borax crystal growing solution into the container so that the star is covered. Try to avoid touching the star to the sides or bottom of the container. Crystals will grow on the star even if it is touching the container (which was the case with the star in the photo), but it is much harder to remove the star without damaging it.

Allow the crystals to grow until are satisfied with them. This is usually anywhere from 2-10 hours. Remove the star and allow it to dry.

The star may be stored wrapped in tissue paper, kept away from humidity.

Other Star Crystals

If you don't have borax you can use alum, table salt or epsom salts. As with the borax, be sure the solution is fully saturated before adding the star shape. Table salt will produce pretty small cubic crystals, while alum will grow large crystals and epsom salts will grow needle-shaped crystals.

I'm not surprised to report that the Signed & Numbered edition of Unfettered is sold out—for now.
I say for now because the people who pre-ordered the Signed & Numbered edition of The Dark Thorn between April 2012 and September 2012 have first rights to the same number of the Signed & Numbered edition of Unfettered. They have until December 1st to buy it. If they do not, I might have a few copies left of the Signed & Numbered edition of Unfettered in December. More on that when the time comes.
Note: For those of you who ordered a Signed & Numbered edition of The Dark Thorn between April and September, you will be receiving a new purchasing link via the email on record later today. The old link and password won't work.
In the meantime, order the trade hardcover edition of Unfettered. It will have a blank signature page. Over the years, I bet many of you can fill the book up with autographs from some of your favorite writers! Not to mention you'll get to read the stories too!
Thank you for supporting me during this difficult time. I wish this on no one. I'm lucky in that I've made some wonderful friends over the years who happen to be great writers with awesome fans. Without you all, I'd be bankrupt and my future shot for the next decade!

Rusty Fischer is the author of multiple popular humorous and action-packed YA paranormal novels, including Zombies Don't Cry and Vamplayers. Rusty welcomed Medallion readers into his fictional world back in 2010 with these first words from Zombies Don't Cry—"It's 2:27 a.m., I have no heartbeat, I can't breathe, and this is all getting a little too surreal for me"—and we were hooked. This month, as we celebrate the release of his fifth Medallion novel, Vampire Book of the Month Club, we've asked him to dish a little about his latest novel, his life, and his tips for writers.
- Tell us a little bit about yourself.
I am a full-fledged geek and absolutely obsessed about writing. I am married, no kids, and my wife and I share a very happy life together in the same city where both our families live.
- What led to your decision to be a writer?
Judy Blume! Seriously, Judy Blume was my teacher, mentor, and best friend growing up—if only she knew. I loved S.E. Hinton and Beverly Cleary as well and wanted to do for others what they did for me: take me someplace I'd never been and talk to me like a friend the whole way there.
- Tell us what it took to get your first manuscript published.
My first published book was a series of do-it-yourself short stories for an educational publisher, so it took a lot of persistence in submitting to every "teacher publisher" on the planet.
- What is your book about?
This book is about a teenage girl, Nora Falcon, who just happens to be a best-selling author at seventeen! She goes to a very exclusive school filled with other special teens, one of them—her BFF who's a girl, Abby Hastings, just happens to be a movie star and her BFF who's a boy, Wyatt Cash, is a male model. But a new man enters her life when Reece Rothchild shows up at a book signing one night and then in her homeroom the next morning, having transferred to her school. At first, Nora is impressed, but soon she's panicked: first Wyatt, then Abby go missing! Turns out Reece has kidnapped them and is holding them for ransom, until Nora writes a very personal book…just for him. Well, him and all his vampire friends!
- What real-life themes are explored in this book?
This is a book about friendship, primarily, and how willing we are to save our friends from harm.
- What is your favorite part of this book?
My favorite part is that Nora is a writer and how she uses excerpts of her books to frame the opening of most scenes. It's like a book within a book, really!
- How do you hope readers are affected by this book?
I hope readers enjoy this vampire departure from my predominantly zombie books and that they appreciate the kind of old-school world I've tried to create where there are still modern vampires who aren't quite modern.
- What do you think are the three most important things writers should know about getting their work published?
Would it be too cheesy to say "persistence, persistence, persistence"? I guess so, but absolutely sticking with it is the most important thing a writer can do. So, first, stick with it; be persistent. Second, have a thick skin and learn to deal with rejection. So much of publishing is subjective, and what this guy hates that gal will love; you just have to find that one editor who "gets it." Finally, confidence; people want to read something new and unique, written by someone who knows what they're doing. I'm not saying I absolutely have it all down yet, but I will say that when I sit down to write I'm confident in what I'm doing and eager to get to work!
- Aside from writing, what are your hobbies or areas of expertise?
I read when I can, which isn't often, and try to see as many scary movies a year as possible. (Netflix is making that easier and easier.) I'm married, happily, and spend as much time away from my computer as possible with my wife. We live in Florida, so we swim and bike a lot.
- Where can your fans go to get in touch with you?
My main base of operations is my blog at http://zombiesdontblog.blogspot.com/.

|chocolate truffles from Katherine Ann Confections, Chicago
This past year has been no different - 2011 has been just as busy, if not more so than 2010: I moved into another new apartment (2 years of moving in a row-whoa!). Started a new job. Went away for 8 weeks of training for said new job. Picked up where I left off last winter with my knitting- this time selling mittens, bears and pillows at a small sale more on that here. Traveled to see family in far and distant places like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ohio - And have loved every minute of it. 2011 was a little more on and off with the posts- a few lulls in the summer (really who wants to turn the oven on when its 100 degrees outside?!). 2011 also experienced a lull in making treats because this sugar baby needs to watch her sugar intake. tTrust me I'm still figuring out how to do this without cutting out everything delicious entirely (more to come on this). 2011 brought more posts about yummy treats I have encountered while out and about. 2011 had me revisiting my own posts, referencing favorite recipes to re-create (and noticing typos and some incomplete descriptions-sorry about that). 2011 connected me with you, the reader - to my continued surprise, you are reading and following along and trying out the recipes yourself! thanks for the photos you have shared, keep em coming! 2011 also was all about appearances - Baked has gone through many visual transformations in the last year - and no doubt there will still be more!
In 2012, I hope to post more often, the goal is once a week. In 2012, I hope to try more new recipes from loved ones AND get the stories that are made alongside the recipes. In 2012, I hope to learn more about you, the reader, and what you like to bake.
2012 is about doing what you love. Recognizing what it is that you are most happy doing, and making time for it. Of course it is still a lot of work, but it is worth it because you are doing it for yourself. We are all so busy these days. That's not going to change, but it's important to jam in some "love to-do's" on our ever growing to-do list!

text: I have recently been trying to root my HTC hero, however I have come away empty handed three different times. My phone is allowing unknown source applications to be installed and the debugging option is also on. Upon some closer digging I found I was missing a file named dxdrm (my cousin rooted his phone 2 days before and suggested that might be the problem.) I don't know how big of a problem this is. And im wondering if I can obtain that file elsewhere. I've tried the unrevoked and z4root multiple times. Any suggestions or solutions?

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by Steven58, Jul 14, 2010.
Gotta Love BING
The only question is do they honor any and all VZW Customer discounts? (NE2, corporate discounts, etc.?)
Also note that Bing ends on July 30th, so get those orders in before that.
Hey JubbaTheHutt, wanted to chime in and let you know that Wirefly does not honor VZW discounts at this time.
*** Correction: We don't honor NE2 but do honor corporate discounts.
Woah, a Wirefly rep who responded ASAP!
Thanks for the heads up...guess I'll stay the course with my online order.
I thought Bing was cancelling its cash back program. In 30 days, wirelfy will have the X for $50 not $50 off
I'm surprised of the amount of reps I've encountered on this board!
In fact, I have some PMs to respond to, speaking of which.
Bing is canceling the Bing Cashback program on July 30th, but any orders that are placed BEFORE that date will receive the funds.
Wirefly does not honor NE2, but you can keep your corporate discount. If you are upgrading through Wirefly, it is applied automatically.
Anyone know what's Wirefly's full MSRP price? It doesn't show.
thats what I been waiting to see. hoping I get the email saying its selling soon, but if it doesnt go on sale til 12 west coast time I wont find out. I hope to have already ordered by then..now if I knew the price I'd might wait to save 50 bucks if it was even applied to full retail...then again if the promo code works for 10% off at full retail with vzw I will save 50$ that way erggggg
Does anyone know if Wirefly is going to offer the Droid X to existing customers for the same price as new customers?
That is what they did for the original Droid and Droid Eris. I'll order one tonight if they are doing the same thing!
Interesting, Wirefly is still showing 5 hours on the countdown and it's 10PM EST...
That would be:
2 hours til midnight EST
3 hours til midnight PST
5 hours
If I order an X for me and a regular Droid for my wife do I get $100 bing cash back?
Alright, I'm a bit confused here. I've never upgraded or whatever online before so forgive me if these are stupid questions.
I've got a Droid on a family plan with my Wife who has an Eris. Our contract is not up until Nov of 2011. That's what Verizon shows with an upgrade date in Aug of 2011, which seems a bit off because I was under the impression I would get an upgrade on my primary line in Nov of this year since my plan is roughly $190 per month.
Anyway when looking at wirefly this is what their disclaimer says:
Current Verizon Wireless family plan customers: Droid special online price offer available only when upgrading the primary line on a family plan. Wirefly is the Internet's #1 authorized dealer for Verizon Wireless. This offer is fulfilled by Simplexity, LLC, an authorized dealer for Verizon Wireless. This offer is only available with select service plans, features and a two-year subscriber agreement, and is subject to eligibility check by Verizon Wireless, including credit approval or deposit for new customers. Droid by Motorola, Motorola Devour and Droid Eris offers apply to primary and second lines only. Not all US markets are served by Verizon Wireless. Activation and early termination fees apply. Additional restrictions apply. See full offer for details. Offer valid for a limited time only.
It doesn't say you have to be eligible for an upgrade only that you have to upgrade the primary line. So here's the questions...
1. Does anyone think based on the wording that I can get the promo pricing by extending my contract? My phone is the primary line..
2. I've walked through the steps a few times now and it makes me pick a new plan.. Currently on Verizon my plan shows as NATIONWIDE TALK & TEXT FAMILY SHARE PRI 1400. I would choose the
Nationwide Talk & Text Unlimited - Contract Extension plan if I can do this but how will that work for my wife? Will she now have 1400 mins to herself? or does her plan automatically switch to the unlimited since we have a family plan?
Sorry for the stupid questions I'd just really like to get a bit of clarification instead of setting myself up for some problems down the road..
That's correct. It's $50 per phone.
w00t, so Droid X for $80! Plus sell my wife's iphone 3GS! DAMN TEMPTING!
So once I enter in my current phone number and the account number, my 20% discount will be applied automatically and the plan price will be adjusted accordingly? Even though the plan's amount with the corporate discount applied is technically less than the full price of the plan, this won't be considered going under the "minimum" amount I have to pay for the first 6 months, since the discount is applied automatically? Sorry if that was tough to follow; I just don't want to get nailed with that $200 "pay less than the originally agreed upon plan" fee for only paying $80/month (as a result of the corporate discount) when the plan is usually $100/month. I love the opportunities that Wirefly gives, but I just want to make sure I'm not setting myself up to get screwed.
Tech42er, you are correct, your corporate plan discount will be applied as usual to the plan you select during checkout. The 6-month policy only applies if you switch plans.
Am I allowed to add a line to a family plan, then make the new phone the primary on the plan? Or will this cause a wirefly charge?
Hey krichek,
So here's my experience with a similar situation:
My contract is up in May 2011, but upgrade (NE2) is Jan 2011. On a 2yr plan, VZW lets you switch to a new phone after 12 months, so I thought I was safe. I went on Wirefly, ordered a phone on my primary line and it went through. Then, sadly, Wirefly emailed me saying VZW made them cancel the order as I was not yet eligible for an upgrade. Apparently, VZW won't let you use any 3rd party sellers until you reach that official upgrade date, which in your case is August...it sucks because now rather than getting it for $129 on Wirefly, I have to pay $199 - 10%, plus tax on the retail price, so tack on another $53!!!! And when I called VZW, they said that's the way it works since they're doing me a favor! How is my having to pay you more in data plans for the next 2 years doing me a favor???
Hey tranceFusion, if you are keeping the line you add active, Verizon Wireless does allow you to swap phones. If you were to cancel the new line, however, you would be assessed a charge.
I am keeping it active. However I wanted to use the annual upgrade and employee discount against the new droid x rather than my wife's dumbphone... in which case I understand I would have to call verizon to set the droid x as the primary after activating it.
tranceFusion, you'll need to call us and have us do the swap for you so that we can ensure that our agent ID stays attached. If the agent ID is lost, a fee would be charged. Please go ahead and submit your order, and if you have any issues when you call in, please send an email to email@example.com and an agent will give you a call to get you all fixed up.

Lake Park
The Georgia-Florida Gateway
Moving to Lake Park?
Click here for key numbers around
town to help you get connected.
(Utilities, Local Government, etc)
Fun Fact
The "Spanish Moss" that hangs from the beautiful shady oaks is not actually moss. It is an air plant that derives most of its nutrients from the air and rain.
Our History
Lake Park is known as the "Georgia-Florida Gateway" because it lies just north of the Florida state line on Interstate 75. It is located 14 miles south of Valdosta and was named for the more than twenty beautiful lakes in the surrounding area. Lake Park residents enjoy fishing, boating, and sailing year-round in its temperate climate, as well as golfing at the popular Francis Lake Golf Club. Shopping is also a year-round favored activity with the convenient location of the Lake Park Plaza and Farm House Plaza, which also includes an antiques mall, both located directly off I-75 on exit 5.
Lake Park was conceived in 1886 when L.A. Wisenbaker gave the right-of-way through his farm to the Georgia Southern and Florida Railroad. Wisenbaker purchased fifty acres on either side of the railroad track and would not sell or give it to the railroad thereby forcing them to accept his offer of free land to run the track through and build a depot in Lake Park. Wisenbaker and a group of leading citizens from nearby towns formed the Lake Park Improvement Company and laid plans for the proposed town, which was finally incorporated in 1890.
In the early 1900s, Lake Park was a bustling small town. A couple of innovative citizens turned the local resources of Spanish Moss and peat moss into profitable businesses. The Ocean Pond Fishing Club was formed to create a recreational facility for local businessmen and visitors. The clubhouse still stands beneath the giant mossy oaks and is a popular site for social gatherings.
For more information, visit lakeparkga.com or visit the Lake Park Historical Society and Museum at 300 Railroad Avenue.

Efficient Calculation for Decision Feedback Algorithms Based on Zero-Error Probability Criterion
Kim, Namyong ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 247~252
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.247
Adaptive algorithms based on the criterion of zero-error probability (ZEP) have robustness to impulsive noise and their decision feedback (DF) versions are known to compensate effectively for severe multipath channel distortions. However the ZEP-DF algorithm computes several summation operations at each iteration time for each filter section and this plays an obstacle role in practical implementation. In this paper, the ZEP-DF with recursive gradient estimation (RGE) method is proposed and shown to reduce the computational burden of O(N) to a constant which is independent of the sample size N. Also the weight update of the initial state and the steady state is a continuous process without bringing about any propagation of gradient estimation error in DF structure.
A Threshold Optimization Method for Decentralized Cooperative Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks
Kim, Nak-Kyun ; Byun, Youn-Shik ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 253~263
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.253
Lately, spectrum sensing performance has been improved by using cooperate spectrum sensing which each results of sensing of several secondary users are reported to the fusion center. Using Cognitive Radio, secondary user is able to share a bandwidth allocated to primary user. In this paper, we propose a new decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing scheme which compensates the performance degradation of existing decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing considering the error probability of the channel which sensed result of the secondary user is delivered to the fusion center in decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing. In addition, a sensing threshold optimization of minimizing the error probability of decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing is introduced by deriving the equation and the optimal sensing threshold has been confirmed to maximize the decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing performance.
Correlation Property of Encrypted Spreading Code for Design of LPI Applied GNSS Signal
Park, Ki-Hyeon ; Song, Min Kyu ; Song, Hong-Yeop ; Lee, Jang-Yong ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 264~272
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.264
In this paper, we analyze the statistical characteristic and describe the anti-interference performance of the signal for the LPI-applied GNSS using encrypted spreading code. To do this, we analyze the correlation property of encrypted sequences theoretically having various symbol sets over complex root of unity. We derive the degradation of anti-interference performance of encrypted sequences comparing with Gold and Zadoff-Chu sequences using theoretical and experimental methods.
Feasibility of Interference Alignment for Reverse Duplex in MIMO Cellular Networks with One-side Base Cooperation
Kim, Kiyeon ; Jeon, Sang-Woon ; Yang, Janghoon ; Kim, Dong Ku ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 273~284
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.273
The feasibility conditions of interference alignment (IA) are analyzed for reverse duplex systems, in which one cell operates as downlink (DL) while the other cell operates as uplink (UL) assuming one-sid base station (BS) cooperation. Under general multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) antenna configurations, a necessary condition and a sufficient condition for one-shot linear IA are established, i.e., linear IA without symbol or time extension. In several example networks, optimal sum degrees of freedom (DoF) is characterized by the derived necessary condition and sufficient condition. For some special class of networks, a sufficient condition is established in a more compact expression, which also yields the necessary and sufficient condition. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed IA does not only achieve larger DoF but also significantly improves the sum rate in the practical signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime.

Kim, Sujin ; Myung, Jungho ; Kang, Joonhyuk ; Sung, Tae-Kyung ; Lee, Kwang-Eog ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 285~297
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.285
In this paper, Ulta-WideBand (UWB) channel measurement and modeling based on compressive sampling (CS) are proposed. The sparsity of the channel impulse response (CIR) of the UWB signal in frequency domain enables the proposed channel measurement to have a low-complexity and to provide a comparable performance compared with the existing approaches especially used for the indoor geo-localization purpose. Furthermore, to improve the performance under noisy situation, the soft thresholding method is also investigated in solving the optimization problem for signal recovery of CS. Via numerical results, the proposed channel measurement and modeling are evaluated with the real measured data in terms of location estimation error, bandwidth, and compression ratio for indoor geo-localization using UWB system.

Park, Unhee ; Kim, Hee Wook ; Oh, Dae-Sub ; Jang, Dae-Ik ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 298~306
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.298
In this paper, we propose an efficient resource allocation scheme for the integrated satellite/terrestrial networks. The proposed scheme is a frequency sharing technique to mitigate the inter-component interferences which can be generated between a satellite beam and terrestrial cells that are operated in the same frequency. The proposed dynamic resource allocation scheme can mitigate the total inter-component interference by optimizing the total transmission power and it can expect a result of which can lead to an increase in capacity. In such a system, the interference situation can be affected by the distributed traffic demands or up/down link communications environments. In this point of view, we evaluate the performance of the total consumed power, the amount of inter-component interference with respect to different traffic distributions and interference environments between the satellite beam and terrestrial systems.

DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.307
In this letter, a DFT-based channel estimator is proposed for the uplink of LTE-A systems to solve the leakage and enhance the spectral efficiency. It is confirmed that the proposed estimator can significantly improve user and cell spectral efficiencies compared to conventional estimators.
Square-Law Combining-Aided SIM/SM for Optical Wireless Communication
Lee, Jeong-Ho ; Hwang, Seung-Hoon ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 310~312
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.310
In this paper, we propose an SIM/SM system with a square-law combining. In an outdoor environment, the performance of SIM/SM deteriorates due to an atmospheric turbulence. The square-law combining technique can enhance the performance of the SIM/SM by employing square-and-integrate operation at the receiver side. For various spectral efficiencies, the performance gain increases as the number of photodetectors increases. Furthermore, as the turbulence strength increases, the performance gain also increases.

The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 313~324
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.313
In this paper, in order to support the construction of a smart home environment of low power consumption, we propose a heterogeneous interface determination engine and architecture. Technology of "smart home" is in the spotlight according to the development of IT technology nowadays. Smart homes are configured with multiple sub-networks, and each sub-network is formed by the smart devices using various communication interfaces. Thus, in the smart home environment, interlocking technology between heterogeneous interfaces is essentially required for supporting communication between different networks. Further, each communication interface is a difference in power consumption, and home smart devices are often operated in 24 hours, especially smart phones and other wireless devices are sensitive to power consumption. Therefore, in order to build a energy efficient home network, It is important to select the appropriate interface to handle traffic depending on the situation. In this paper, we propose "The Heterogeneous Interface Decision Engine and Architecture for constructing of Low Power Home Network," and analyze the performance of the proposed method and verify the validity through experiments on the test bed.

DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.325
In this paper, we are aim to analysis the effects of optical cable fault on customer complaints. We considered several causes: the elapse time to allow repair from the optical cable fault, whether working day or not, seasonality and human error, external construction, optical cable cutting or core banding that is controllable causes and natural disasters, vehicle crash, fire that is uncontrollable causes. The results of analysis are as follows: First, customer complaints increase through indifferencial relationship when using the production function for the number of expected victims and elapsed time due to the optical cable fault. Second, not only the elapsed time but also controllable variables, human error, external construction, the core cut occurs, increased customer complaints due to optical cable faults.

Widespread use of smart devices accompanies increase of use of access point (AP), which enables the connection to the wireless network. If the appropriate security is not served when a user tries to connect the wireless network through an AP, various security problems can arise due to the rogue APs. In this paper, we are going to examine the threat by evil-twin, which is a kind of rogue APs. Most of recent researches for detecting rogue APs utilize the measured time difference, such as round trip time (RTT), between the evil-twin and authorized APs. These methods, however, suffer from the low detection rate in the network congestion. Due to these reasons, in this paper, we suggest a new factor, packet inter-arrival time (PIAT), in order to detect evil-twins. By using both RTT and PIAT as the learning factors for the support vector machine (SVM), we determine the non-linear metric to classify evil-twins and authorized APs. As a result, we can detect evil-twins with the probability of up to 96.5% and at least 89.75% even when the network is congested.

DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.349
This paper is about utilizing magnetic sensor to measure magnetic signal and analyze the form of magnetic signal for vehicle detection. For magnetic sensor, MR sensor from Honeywell company was used, and Helmholtz coil of which 3 axis' length is 1.2 m was manufactured to check the capability of the sensor and estimate its ability to detect the magnetic field. Vehicle detection was performed in following steps: installing sensor in road lane and non-road lane; estimating magnetic field when the vehicle is run by the driver; and estimating magnetic field of 7 different vehicles with different sizes. Also, sensor was installed at SUV and small-sized vehicle's park and non-park area to analyze the form of magnetic field. Lastly, the form of magnetic field made by different parts of the vehicle was analyzed. Based on the analysis, the form of magnetic field's magnetic peak value was bigger for road lane than non-road lane, complicated form was useful to distinguish the road lane above the installed sensor and the location of the running car, and the types of vehicle could be sorted because the variance of the magnetic field was bigger for bigger size of the vehicle. Also, it was confirmed that the forms of vehicle in parts-by-parts estimates.

DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.355
In this study, we have fabricated 9.385[GHz] circulator that is composed of WR112 waveguide and Ferrite for X-band radar. For designing Ferrite, B/R mode(Below Resonance mode) was used and calculated the condition of 120 degree rotation of the electric field in Ferrite and calculated internal DC magnetic field and external DC magnetic field. Also, dielectric materials of the same shape with Ferrite was filled between two Ferrite for improving the performance of the circulator, including impedance matching, bandwidth, quality factor, insertion loss. To obtain optimum shape of the Ferrite and dielectric material, we used CST MWS. Simulation result of the circulator is that 1.02 : 1 VSWR, -40dB isolation, 0.2dB insertion loss and measurement result is that 1.03 : 1, -38dB, 1.2dB at 9.385[GHz]. We can get good agreement at isolation and VSWR, but insertion loss was 1 dB great than simulation result.

Dock-style and Monitor embedded system are designed respectively.
MAC Layer Protocol for Improvement in Power Consumption and Time Delay in a Sensor Network
Shin, Jae Kwan ; Park, Dong Chan ; Kim, Suk Chan ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 366~368
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.366
This paper proposes a MAC protocol for sensor networks such as disaster detection system which generate the non-periodic packet. B-MAC has been used to solve delay problem for sensor networks, however, the power loss occurs due to excessive preamble and over-hearing. In contrast, S-MAC has a number of drawbacks in power consumption due to synchronization. In this paper, we propose H-MAC and analyze its performance which has improved power consumption compared to S-MAC and overhead and over-hearing compared to B-MAC.

DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.369
In this letter, we analyze the outage performance of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)-based selective relaying in a relay network, where the relay terminal may retransmit the received signal or remain silent based on the received SNR of the link from the source to the relay. For the proposed relaying scheme, we derive the exact outage probability.
DCT-Based Subpixel-Accuracy Motion Estimation Utilizing Shifting Matrix
Shin, Jae-Young ; Ryu, Chul ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 372~379
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.372
The latest video compression standard (such as H.264/AVC and HEVC) utilizes quarter-pel accuracy motion estimation in order to retain detailed motion information. Many sub-pixel motion estimation algorithms used in the spatial domain usually encounters increment of computational complexity due to embedded interpolation algorithm. In this paper, an approach to measure sub-pixel accuracy motion estimation in frequency domain using shifting matrix is proposed. Complexity can be reduced utilizing shifting matrix algorithm in frequency domain and simulation results demonstrate not only higher PSNR but lower bit rates than spatial domain algorithms.

As an extension of Visible Light Communication, Optical Camera Communications (OCC) will be a promising service for smart devices. Especially in line of sight marketing service and indoor localization application, by using camera which exists in smart devices, small amount of data (url link) can be broadcasted or find direction from the illumination system. This paper introduces the operation of wireless communications technology that transmits optical information from optical light source to camera, called Optical Camera Communications.

If visible light communication is to be used against large background noise in indoor environment, low frequency noise should be avoided. To maintain the advantages of LED lighting while transmitting signals, LEDs should be dimmable and free from flickering effect. In this paper, the spectrum of transmission signal is shifted toward high frequency for this purpose. Specifically, we propose a subpulse-VPPM scheme, which can be designed using only digital components, and we implement a test-bed for performance measurement.

DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.390
The drastic growth of mobile communication and spreading of smart phone make the significant attention on Location Based Service. The one of most important things for vitalizations of LBS is the accurate estimating position for mobile object. Focusing on an image sensor deployed in smart phone, we develop a LED based positioning estimation framework. The developed approaches can strengthen the advantages of independent indoor applicability of LED. The estimation of LED based positioning is effectively applied to any indoor environment. We put a focus especially on the algorithmic framework. of image processing of smart phone. From LED lighting, we can obtain a typical signal image which contains the unique positioning information. Furthermore test-bed based on smart phone platform is practically developed and all data have been harvested from the actual measurement of test indoor area. This can approve the practical usefulness of proposed framework.
Design of a Low Noise 6-Axis Inertial Sensor IC for Mobile Devices
Kim, Chang Hyun ; Chung, Jong-Moon ;
The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, volume 40, issue 2, 2015, Pages 397~407
DOI : 10.7840/kics.2015.40.2.397
In this paper, we designed 1 chip IC for 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer used for various IoT/M2M mobile devices such as smartphone, wearable device and etc. We especially focused on analysis of gyroscope noise and proposed new architecture for removing various noise generated by gyroscope MEMS and IC. Gyroscope, accelerometer and geo-magnetic sensors are usually used to detect user motion or to estimate moving distance, direction and relative position. It is very important element to designing a low noise IC because very small amount of noise may be accumulated and affect the estimated position or direction. We made a mathematical model of a gyroscope sensor, analyzed the frequency characteristics of MEMS and circuit, designed a low noise, compact and low power 1 chip 6-axis inertial sensor IC including 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer. As a result, designed IC has 0.01dps/
of gyroscope sensor noise density.

A New Challenge
Over the last five years there has been a noticeable shift in focus among leading oil and gas companies active in the continent of Africa. Rather than focusing on West and North Africa for investment opportunities, there has been a move to explore new prospects in East Africa. The region is rapidly becoming a prominent investment destination in both the upstream and downstream oil sectors. In 2011 several majors including BG, Eni and Petrobras, are planning to sink wells and all of them are investing significant amounts in search of deepwater gas reserves. Alongside these exploration initiatives the author assesses plans for a new pipeline with a capacity of 450,000 barrels a day, to be constructed from Juba in Southern Sudan to Lamu on the Kenyan coast. Increasingly, as the author notes, the region is emerging as a significant location for investment in hydrocarbon resources.

It only took one day for the trailer-esque DC Universe 0 to sell out at Diamond Comics Distributors. With all the mainstream press DC received from such outlets as The New York Daily News, the Associated Press, and The New York Times, as well as our own coverage, it is understandable that comic readers young and old went out to pick up this "jumping on point" issue.
In order to meet demand, DC is already back to press with a second printing that features a variant version of the original cover.
I think the sell out took DC by surprise, as the second edition won't be available until May 28.
5 Comments
so the second edition is a dollar? interesting…
Thankfully the local Forbidden Planet had plenty of copies :-) when I looked this morning they had about 30 copies.
was definitely a worthwhile read!
actually the one's they've got say 50 cents on them?
"DC Universe #0 Sells Out" you can say that again
First printing is 50 cents, second printing must be 1 dollar.

Swindon Town director of football Tim Sherwood has been charged by the Football Association for allegedly abusing a match official during the recent encounter with Bury.
The incident took place during half time of Saturday's League One clash at Gigg Lane, which the Robins went on to lose 1-0 to remain in the dropzone.
It is claimed that Sherwood used "abusive and/or insulting and/or improper words and/or behaviour" towards the official close to the tunnel.
Former Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa boss Sherwood now has until February 20 to respond to the charge.
Swindon are currently four points adrift of safety after winning three, drawing four and losing 11 of their 18 games since Sherwood joined the club in a backroom role - a run that includes five losses on the spin.

1. Re: How to get the epilogue of a mailBill Shannon-Oracle Sep 13, 2013 6:56 PM (in response to Hameed.S.A.)
There's no direct way to get the epilogue.
Hopefully you're not running into messages that use the epilogue for anything useful.
RFC 2046 says:
NOTE: These "preamble" and "epilogue" areas are generally not used because of the lack of proper typing of these parts and the lack of clear semantics for handling these areas at gateways, particularly X.400 gateways. However, rather than leaving the preamble area blank, many MIME implementations have found this to be a convenient place to insert an explanatory note for recipients who read the message with pre-MIME software, since such notes will be ignored by MIME-compliant software.
While there's a reasonable use for the preamble, there's no suggestion of a reasonable
use for the epilogue.
What sort of real messages are you seeing that have data in the epilogue?
The MimeMultipart parser should stop reading when it reaches the terminating
boundary separator. You might be able to continue reading the InputStream
after that point to access the epilogue.

SITTING IMPATIENTLY at a kid-crowded, early-morning advance screening for the latest film in the Alvin and the Chipmunks franchise—this being the second time in my life that I've been in this esteemed position—it's all too easy to catch oneself indulging in the pangs of self-satisfied superiority. The fact that hundreds of professional film practitioners could commit so much energy to something so utterly unredeemable is in itself enough to make a hard-poverty-lining critic feel like a bastion of personal integrity.
Unsurprisingly, it's the actors in a film like Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel that bear the brunt of this righteous indignation; not so much the voice actors (among them this time Amy Poehler, Christina Applegate, Justin Long, and Anna Faris)—whose unnaturally sped-up anonymity buys them all a bit of a pass—but dudes like Jason Lee and David Cross, whose pained, embarrassed visages will forever be married to this misfortune. (Cross in particular is sunk to emasculating new lows in The Squeakquel—it almost feels as if the whole enterprise is just an elaborate plot by some spiteful studio exec to humiliate him).
And then suddenly the veil of my virtue disappears, and I realize that I am sitting in a movie theater crowded with snot-nosed kids at 10 in the morning on a Saturday, watching another Alvin and the Chipmunks movie for $30. I mean, who's worse off, really? At least David Cross bought a house with his dignity.
