We purchased the 50 mm Round Tag Stock#: 28142 Category:
Accessories-RF... and we are trying to build a mini EMP pulse generator
out of a disposable camera - to send an EMP through a copper coil and
"Kill" the RFID tags once they are purchased at our fictional cash
register... the problem is: we are not sure how much current is needed
to disable/kill these tags- or if it is even possible to do so. One of
my group members suggested that i write on this forum and ask you guys
for any suggestions/info. We have a javelin microcontroller, a Grand
Idea Studio RFID Reader Module -Stock#: 28140, and the 50 mm Round
Tags. Are we able to send a "code" to disable these tags using our
Reader?? ( we have read that it is possible to do so with other models
)??? please reply with any suggestions... Thanx.
(Might these tags be programmable??? Is it possible to disable them using code from a javelin microcontroller???) |

There are tons of different kinds of tags out there. The ones you are working with are read-only, so they cannot be programmed. Even ones that are read/write still have some read-only memory blocks dedicated to storing and reporting a unique ID.
There are a few ways that stores are approaching disabling RFID tags. One is that the entire tag, ID and all, can be over-written, and the unique part of the tag, the part of the ID that is unqiue to that specific tag, is overwritten with a bunch of zeros (00000). Another way that manufacturers are approaching RFID is to affix the tag to the product in such a way that it can easily be removed after purchase. Sweaters and such include RFID tags that are embedded in a fabric tag that ways "remove before washing or wearing". Even if the customer doesn't remove the tag, it will only survive a few wash cycles before it stops functioning. What you're talking about is zapping and basically frying the tag. Most tags, especially passive tags like the ones you're using, contain current limitors in them to fend off overly powerful reader fields. Because these tags derive power from the reader's magnetic field, they must control the amount of current that they pull from that field, so they don't burn out if they get too close to a strong reader field. However, even the best current limitors can be overpowered. Look into building an EMP pulse generator that generates a strong carrier wave at 125KHz, and is attached to an antenna coil which is tuned to 125KHz (or whatever the frequency of the RFID tags you're trying to kill function on). The magnetic field generated by a short the pulse should be strong enough and powerful enough to fry the tag. Chances are you'll have to place the tag very very close to the pulse antenna coil, and only run the wave generator for a few cycles at 125KHz, otherwise you might fry your antenna. Hope that helps... and stay away from my implant! Edited by amal - 23 February 2006 at 11:37am |

When stores start putting re-writable tags inside everything, then all we'll need is hardware to write back to them, correct? So we'll have near-endless supplies of practically free RFIDs set to zeros, ripe for the programming.

Hahah.. yeah... I guess so :) I'm not sure if the entire tag is re-writable. I think the tags they are putting in clothing are designed to function somewhat like a UPC code, where part of the stored data works to identify the product type (like a current UPC code), and just the "serial number" or uniquely identifyable portion is read/write... but I could be wrong, the entire tag's memory block may be read/write.
There are tags that you can set a memory block to write-once, read many, where after it's written to that memory block is locked. That's probably how they are approaching it. Hmm... now i want to run out a get a sweater. I wonder what frequency range they are using... probably 13.56MHz. I'll let you know if I come up with anything! |

Hmm... are you trying to follow this example, or are you the one writing it, or did you even know others were doing exactly what you're trying to do?

http://www.tagzapper.com/ -- looks like they haven't figured it out yet either.. or maybe they just don't have it in production.
Here's some info on them: "US-based West End Laboratories, the research arm of LDC Security, has developed a special RFID tag zapper designed to kill the RFID chip preventing readers from performing unwanted scanning and tracking of people or goods. According to the company, because information stored on RFID tags can be read by anyone, they may pose privacy threats to customers when deployed in retail environments, and have already triggered a wave of consumer outcry. �In a naive, RFID-enabled world without technical forethought, there is risk that sensitive information could be visible in secret to anyone with an RFID reader,� said Le Derec Caden, director and chief scientist with West End Laboratories in the US. �Moreover, the unique serial numbers emitted by RFID tags could be used to track people and objects surreptitiously. For businesses too, RFID introduces new privacy and security risks � and a whole new dimension to corporate espionage. These concerns have motivated our scientists to work on a new generation of technical solutions that match these challenges.�Phil Devenport Rfid disable: tagzapper!The TagZapper� is being developed to be a light weight, handheld, device for deactivating RFID transmitting devices. This is intended to fulfill consumer demand for a means to protect their.." |

hmm... yeah. I really think the solution will be not a single EMP type pulse, but a high powered, perfectly timed set of pulses that mimic a carrier wave. Otherwise the antennas attached to the RFID tags won't really be tuned to induct much energy from the EMPs, and hence not fry the RFID tags... especially at low frequencies.

In order to 'fry' an rfid tag, consider that the antenna coil is of finite length (whatever the length is). Next, consider that for any given 'chip', there IS in fact a max current tolerable. I don't recall other than the datasheet for each chip what that value is. Now, consider that 125, 134KHz, or whatever, is the ROOT frequency. There are 'octaves' if you will, a doubled freq. ( or x8, x24, etc.) that the RFID's chip will 'sing' or resonate on. So I guess if you had say 5watts(?) at some EXACT multiple or harmonic(?) that you could couple to the antenna, you could generate enough local near field to fondue the chip in a lcoal cauldron of RF. |

- " Cleanliness of bedsheets was only average. Rooms are really very small. The location however is great and close to the subway, right in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui. "
- 19 May 2013 Marc Germany
- " Our 3-person room included only two beds, so we had to share one of them, and the room was incredibly tiny. On the plus side, it had air conditioning, which was a lifesaver in the Hong Kong heat. There was also no communal meeting area, so it was difficult to meet fellow travelers. Not a great value for the money, although I get the impression that everything in Hong Kong is overpriced. We didn't interact with the staff much; they seemed fine. It was clean, safe, and conveniently located. "
- 20 Mar 2013 Anonymous USA
- " We stayed there durring 3/13, and were very disappointed! Thevroom was very small (even by Hong Kong standards), dirty and it was also used as a storage room for the hostels stuff (under the bed). Outside the hostel you can find merchants who will bother you 24/7. "
- 16 Mar 2013 mark Israel
- " Me and a friend stayed in Hong Kong only for one night so we were looking for a good location and a good price. We found both here! I didn't expect much but I was positively suprised, the room was clean and so was the bathroom. The staff was also very nice and careing. The room was pretty small, but that's what you can expect in Hong Kong anyways, although we were happy we only had our small bags with ous :) All in all it's a nice place for a short stay in Hong Kong!!!

Difficult away challenges ahead for Gwent trio
12:10am Saturday 29th September 2012 in Gwent Rugby By Iwan Gabe Davies
GWENT trio Cross Keys, Newport and Bedwas are all on the road today with visits to Llanelli, Llandovery and Aberavon respectively.
And the three are all presented with their own difficult and quite distinct challenges.
Second in the table Keys, featuring Newport Gwent Dragons tighthead Tim Ryan, face fifth-placed Llanelli who are a real handful at Parc y Scarlets and motivated by a strong desire to avenge the Pandy Park side's treble over them last season.
Newport, who have serious injury woes at prop and centre, have it all do if they are to emulate last weekend's heroics when they beat Carmarthen Quins away. But that win showed that the mid table Black and Ambers have plenty of guts and they'll be buoyed by that success when they face leaders of the pack Llandovery.
Finally, Hallam Amos makes his debut for high flying Bedwas, the young Dragons ace selected at full back.
They face basement side Aberavon who are bound to be pumped up because they are still searching for their first win of the season with October nearly upon us.
Cross Keys: G David, L Williams, L Ford, A James, N Trowbridge, D Jones, R Dyer (captain), A Lott, J Sollis, T Ryan, S Andrews, O Hodge, R Peebles, S Matthews, A Powell. Replacements: S Higgins, G Horrigan, J Johnstone, G Price, E Jones, D Gunter, J Lewis, R James.
Newport : A Awcock, E Frewen, G O'Driscoll, I Smerdon, W Hodnett, S Sneddon, J Leadbeater, D Pattison, R Prosser, A Jeffries, D Rosser, A Frampton, I Jones, C Attwell (captain), H Stoddart. Replacements : A Brown, J Lavender, S Waldron, C Everett, T Hancock, R Downes, A Quick.
Bedwas: H Amos, R Budina, J Dixon, S Williams, M John, R Powell, T Rowlands, I George, R Hutcherson, K Gay, J Thomas, K Maiden, P Sargent (captain), S Grainger, S Feehan. Replacements: B Roberts, D Preece, M Pettit, P Rees, D Mattravers, J Benjamin, E Davies, AN Other.

Which bradley font
Hi there. I have a name card that i need to make a replica of but when i print it using mac, the new one is either too fine or too thick. The 2 bradley fonts i have are:
BRADLEY HAND ITC (too fine) and BRADLEY HAND ITC TT (too thick). I need something in-between the thicknesses. Mac wont let me bold the Bradley hand itc. Any ideas?
There are only two versions of the Bradley Hand. The regular and the bold. If none fits your original may have been printed in letterpress with or too much pressure or too much ink.
Maybe applying an extra stroke width on the regular is a solution.
Depends on the program you use.
Can you show an image of the card?
no sorry i cant get a picture clear enough to post but the program i am using is keynotes on mac. thanks
No, with Keynote you can't add an extra stroke. For that you need an image program that allows you to do that and then copy the image in the presentation.
I found an enStep variation on the Bradley Hand, named Jonas which I have fattened a bit. Would that do? |

Personality: Kai is a smart and logical person and he is a bit of a loner. He is not one to trust easy when meeting new people, he always looks for any indication that they are hiding something. He spends most of his time alone working on new inventions or upgrading his armor he dose not let anyone see his unfinished inventions and will only show them his finished ones if he made them specifically for them.
Bio: Kai lived in Dakota, his parents died when he was 12 during a large chemical explosion that later came to be know as the big bang the big bang released a lot of mutagen gas that gave a number of people superhuman powers these people where know as bang babies and most were hated and fared as they used there powers for personal gain and even though some of the bang babes became heroes and tried to stop them in the end all the bang babies where hunted down by the police who was trying to force a cure on them. This is when Kai decided it was time for him to leave and find a new home over the years Kai has invented a number of things none of which he has released to the public, the best of which is his armored suit witch increases his already enhanced ability's as well as has a number of built in weapons, he carry's a backpack with him but this is really just his suit compacted down and made to look like an ordinary bag but once he presses the button on the strap the suit unfolds and covers his body the bag also has built in anti gravity tech to make it easy to carry.
Power 1: Technology Manipulation (this allows him to control and manipulate technology with his mind for a more detailed explanation click the link attached)
Abilities: Enhanced Strength, Speed, Stamina, Endurance, Agility, Reflexes, Intelligence, Seances and he recovers from injuries faster then normal (he can't come back to life or regrow limbs)

Benjamin turned eight months on December 17th, his sister's birthday.
He will have an official stats check at his 9 months check up next month. At his sick baby visit last week he weighed 17 lbs. I'm eager to know his height and how he's grown. With the massive hands and feet and long fingers on this kid, I wonder if it is a prediction of his size at all or if he's just a little lanky in those areas.
He has started doing so much this month:
Finger foods: Avocado, banana, oat cereal, apples, cheerios
Real deal, fast as all get out, crawling
Pulling up on some things
More vocal than ever and imitating everything we do
Playing pat-a-cake
Waving Bye Bye
Snapping his fingers
Two Teeth
What, What?! Still breastfeeding. Despite being out of our frozen milk stash for almost 2 months, this little guy has still only had mama's milk. It's taken a little sacrifice on mama's part. Like having to work later because I'm stopping in the middle of my day to feed him and choosing to go in a back room while visiting with family or friends to feed him because we don't have any bottles saved. I really don't mind it though. Love the little one on one time with my buddy.
Excuse my geekness. I've been playing on pic monkey and figuring out how to create little things like this:

Oil is an essential part of cooking. But there may be a way around the negatives some oils bring to the cooking table.
Fat is not all bad—we just tend to get too much of it. The body uses fat to insulate organs and regulate temperature, and is the preferred source of energy for muscles at rest. Some fat has a protective effect for the heart. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish, soybean oil and walnuts, may actually contribute to heart health and are important for brain development in children.
Vitamin E is found in the fatty portions of food. Good sources of Vitamin E are vegetable oils (e.g., sunflower), olive oils, avocados, nuts, seeds and wheat germ. It has strong antioxidant properties and may help protect against heart disease and cancer.
Dietary fats are either saturated or unsaturated. Saturated fats are very tough substances that are fairly solid at room temperature. Saturation makes for a very strong molecule that is difficult to break apart. For this reason, saturated fats give very good texture and mouthfeel to food.
Trans fatty acids are formed when naturally unsaturated oils, such as canola or corn, are hydrogenated. For years it was thought that hydrogenated vegetable oils, like the type found in margarines or solid vegetable shortenings, were healthier than animal fats, such as butter or lard.
New thinking: It's now thought that the bonds made from adding hydrogen to vegetable oil, called trans fatty acid bonds, may do just as much damage to the veins and arteries as animal fat.
Chefs oftentimes prefer to cook with saturated fats, such as butter or bacon fat, which contribute texture and taste to many menu items. For example, butter or hydrogenated vegetable oil give the correct texture and taste to cookie dough. Unfortunately, saturated fats are difficult for the body to break down. Excess saturated fats are stored in the walls of veins and arteries, narrowing them and causing a decrease in elasticity and in volume. This ultimately leads to various disease states.
Part of the answer to this dilemma is to use any type of fat sparingly. A primer on oils, especially those newly available, can also help.
Let's go shopping: Not so long ago, you had a choice of corn or soy oils. Then the oil producers introduced canola oil (short for "Canadian oil, low acid" as its true name is the unmarketable "rapeseed"). After canola, many people began a romance with olive oil, training their palates to distinguish between extra virgin and pomace or Spanish and Greek.
Today, you need to allot extra time when procuring vegetable oil. There is grapeseed oil (pressed from grape pits and peels), walnut oil, avocado oil and many others. You can have fun with oil selection, and taste-test and cook-test to see which specialty oils meet your needs. Just remember that the healthiest vegetable oil is still all fat—about 50 calories per teaspoon.
Just because an oil, according to claims, "helps to reduce this" or " is a good source of that" doesn't mean you can carelessly pour it on. Specialty oils tend to have shorter shelf lives than standard cooking oils, such as corn, soy, safflower and cottonseed. Much of the nutritional value can be lost over time.
According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), a heart-healthy diet has no more than 25-35% to total daily calories from fat. Twenty percent of daily fat calories should be from monounsaturated fat, like olive oil. Ten percent of daily fat calories should be from polyunsaturated fat, like corn oil or soy products. The remaining fat can come from saturated fat, if necessary. The NHLBI's final word is: "Moderate amounts of either butter or margarine can be part of a healthy diet. A person's whole diet and general health must be considered in the choice."
Butter Up
Perhaps to strike a balance between butter or margarine or oils, you can add some nut butters to your menus. Nut butters can be used (sparingly) in creamy sauces, curries, barbecue sauce, dips, salad dressings, and yes, as sandwich spreads.
You've heard the news: nuts are good for your health. Even though nuts are high in fat, it's the "good" type of fat, and can help to reduce the incidence of certain cancers, Type 2 diabetes and heart disease, and even facilitate weight loss.
Just so you can put the amount of fat in perspective, most nut butters have seven to 10 grams of fat per tablespoon (about 63-90 calories), mostly unsaturated fat. Along with the "healthy" fat, nut butters are a good source of protein, zinc, fiber, potassium, folic acid and zinc.
Here is a quick guide to some commercially available nut butters. Use them judiciously:

This product is ok. The drawers do not pull out smoothly. Also, the distressed finish does not have a good quality design. It doesn't have the shabby look like really pre owned furniture has. It has some artificial circle blobs here and there. If I had seen this in the store I would never have purchased it. It matches with what I own and it too much of a hassle to return so I plan to keep it.
When I ordered this accent chest there was only 1 review and it wasn't great, but it wasn't all that bad either. I was somewhat hesitant, but after a while I figured i would take a chance. The price was good and the item was exactly what I was looking for. It arrived very fast, only 2 days, and it was packaged very well. When i opened the box I was absolutely thrilled to find the perfect and most gorgeous cream accent chest. It has the worn/antique look that was perfect for my house, and even my husband (who is skeptical about most things I buy online) was impressed. The drawers are great and open and close easily and it has a surprising amount for storage space inside. It was so good I immediately ordered another to have a matching pair and let me tell you they look even better as a pair. If you are on the fence (as i was for a while) trust me you won't go wrong with this chest.
When the pieces showed up, side panels were broken off, the sliders for the drawer were broken. I had to basically rebuild it. They did give me a small discount for the hassle. The finished product is beautiful, lat
Just ordered two as night stands. Shipped quick. Packaged well. Color and look is just as shown. So cute my mom is ordering the larger one for her house. First purchase from overstock and very pleased.
This is a very sturdy, heavy and well-manufactured piece of furniture. The color is a little darker than cream or ivory with more yellow overtones. The drawers slide well but there is a slight smell to the furniture. I wouldn't recommend storing clothes in it but it may dissipate with time. I'm using it as a bedside table to hold my phone, charger and various paperwork. Overall I am pleased with this purchase.
I needed a small chest for a certain location. This piece fits the bill.

When it comes to your wedding, you want to stamp your own personal style on every aspect of the day. In the business world, they call this "branding." In the wedding world, the branding begins and ends with your stationery. You can use your stationery to pull together the entire look of your wedding. Just select a color, monogram, and font, then run with them.Here we offer 10 hot ideas to help you create a suite of wedding stationery that's as unique as the two of you.
Judy Bates, the Bargainomics Lady, joined us on Good Day Alabama with a great do-it-yourself idea. She calls this project a "craft for the craft-less."
Judy says you don't even need to know how to sew to make your own T-shirt scarf, plus they make great gifts, too. It takes about 20 minutes to make one. If you have a t-shirt and a pair of scissors, you're ready to begin.
#1 Volunteer to earn a "pre-sale" shopping pass
This is a tip from a Facebook (L. Miller) - working a few hours is worth the opportunity to get to shop first. Most sales will have preview sales a day or two before the public sale.
#2 Shop without the children
If it's possible to leave the children at home with a non-shopping spouse or grandparent you will probaby be able to get much more done in a shorter period of time.
#3 Have a plan

I walked into the service department without and appointment to have the minor rattle in the back of the car fixed. The service manager was friendly and accomodating and had an employee take the car for a quick ride to listen to the rattle. After about 30 minutes the car was fixed, no rattle and no charge and smile on everyone's faces.
Thank you Acme Nissan for service with a smile and a job well done.


text: Borderlands 2, the sequel to Borderlands, does not disappoint. If you enjoyed the first one, then to be brief...BUY SECOND ONE! Now if you haven't played the first or are still unsure...how about a little more detail. Borderlands takes place on Pandora (No, not the music player) and offers amazing story lines and extremely humorous writing. You can play solo, or co op with up to 3 other friends with jump in and jump out game play. You get to go and basically blow the crap out of things with a wide array of weaponry and abilities. It has solid cell shade graphics and a fairly smooth flow of the game. It could however use some better navigation and checkpoint systems, but overall a solid game. I give it a 4.5/5 on the DanO scale as it is a contender for Game of The Year. It is well worth its price tag

AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) - A spokeswoman for the Maine Beer and Wine ...
SOUTH PARIS, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Cuts in federal funds dedicated to help job seekers find work are forcing service providers to make painful choices.
At the Maine Department of Labor, less money coming in from the Workforce Investment Act has meant less money going out to community partners who help run their satellite Career Centers.
"Those federal funds were cut from two years ago to last year," explained Peter Pare, director of the Maine Department of Labor's Bureau of Employment Services. "They were cut again this year."
"When the funds are reduced, adjustments have to be made," added Pare. "You just try to make the adjustments so that they are the least painful for everyone involved."
At the South Paris Career Center, those adjustments mean moving to a smaller, shared office, cutting staff members and closing its information center, where people could drop-in, access computers to browse job listings and do training exercises.
"It was really tough to make this decision, but it was a decision to either close and move out of the area, or at least try to reduce our footprint and maintain as much of the services that we can," stated Jim Trundy, the program manager for Western Maine Community Action, which has been the workforce service provider in Androscoggin, Franklin and Oxford counties for more than three decades.
"The big difference here will be it will be more on an appointment basis that you can get the service, but the service will still be available," said Trundy.
"People need the help," he added. "While there have been some jobs created, there is nowhere near enough, and if we are not here to help people do something, it just leaves a big hole."
At the end of the month, the South Paris Career Center will move into the Oxford Hills Chamber of Commerce building at 4 Western Avenue. There people looking for work will still be able to have their eligibility and case management assessments done, meet with staff to get advice and find training opportunities.
Trundy says they have also worked with Central Maine Community College to get people access to their computer lab to search for work in the future.
He says the satellite office they operate in Rumford will also experience some changes, and lose its computer lab as well. The Rumford Career Center will stay at the same address, but will move into a smaller office down the hall.
While there is not interim computer center location in that community, Trundy hopes to find another community partner willing to open its doors to help people who need access to the internet.
The Maine Department of Labor has also been working with Maine's libraries to make sure job seekers can access their services on library computers.
"I think it is going to be a struggle for some people not having it as accessible," said Terri Morrison as she searched the job bank database in the South Paris Career Center. "I don't think it will be as easy as it is now, and I think that will put some people at a disadvantage."
Morrison says it is tough for people who are unemployed to make appointments when they are struggling to keep their lives together.
"I realize if you are not working, people will say, 'well, you've got plenty of time to do what you need to do.' That is not neccesarily the case," she said. "You may not have the means, or you may not have the transportation."
"What you are seeing is the folks making every attempt with the funds that they have to continue to deliver services, but you have to deliver services that are affordable," explained Pare. "So the best thing to do in this case was to reduce the size of the office, save some money. And that is a much better alternative in my mind, and in the service providers mind, than closing up completely."

Do you believe in ghosts? Rad didn't. At least not until he became the owner of a beautiful antique mirror. Through it, he sees glimpses of the past and learns of a terrible tragedy and the death of the mirror's last owner. He knows, in some way, he is being offered the chance to change what happened. But even if Rad does change it, he knows he will also destroy his own future happiness, as he finds himself falling in love with a man long since dead.

It finally happened. After resorting to deep-frying bubble gum, we may have run out of food to deep-fry. Anyone who's ever said "I'd eat anything if it was deep fried" might have to put their money where their mouth is, almost literally. Food stylist Caitlin Levin has teamed up with photographer Henry Hargreaves to bring us something that's both horrifying and a little appetizing: deep-fried gadgets.
Check out the gallery below and some more hi-res pictures of the project at Henry Hargreaves' portfolio site!

Business in brief
Reading Is Fundamental (RIF), the nation's largest children's literacy nonprofit, has selected the Greater Richmond ARC's Infant & Child Services (ICDS) program to receive a $396 grant for free book distributions and literacy activities benefitting Richmond area children and their families. The funds were raised during RIF's 2011 Be Book Smart campaign in partnership with Macy's. The grant money will allow ICDS to meet one of its program goals, which is to provide each child in the program one book per month to help build their home library. *** Henrico Doctors' Hospital Labor and Delivery Unit is the first and only hospital in the United States to earn Joint Commission certification for its Induction of Labor Program. The Labor and Delivery Unit underwent a rigorous on-site survey and a team of Joint Commission expert surveyors evaluated the hospital for compliance with standards of care specific to the needs of patients and families, including leadership, quality of care and medication management. The hospital was recognized for putting into place processes and procedures for advanced safety standards, pain management related to induction of labor, and standardization of labor induction practices. *** Scents of Serenity Organic Spa, located in Glen Allen, is now offering Eminence, a new line of organic makeup. All products are made with fresh fruit pulps, plants and exotic spices from organic environments. Eminence has a product for every skin type, including sensitive and aged skin. The organic skincare aligns with owner Melanie Mueller's vision of a health and wellness spa, providing free health workshops, all out of a historic farmhouse at 3016 Mountain Rd. Scents of Serenity Spa is open Monday-Friday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. by appointment. For details, call 277-4498 or visit http://www.scentsofserenityspa.com. *** A group of five Richmond-based entrepreneurs have founded a new social payment network called PaidThx. The founders are Thomas Eide (CEO), Rob Kirchner (COO), James Rhodes (CTO), Hugo Camacho (executive director of finance) and Ryan Ricigliano (executive director of user experience). With PaidThx, users will no longer have to carry around cash or a checkbook – just their smartphone. The new technology works similarly to online banking tools that are in the market today with one major difference: PaidThx users can send and receive money with all of their contacts, no matter where they bank. The network, set to launch to the public later this year, can be accessed from a smartphone, computer, or popular social media sites. *** The "Fiske Guide to Colleges," a leading college guidebook, has selected the University of Richmond for its 2013 edition of the 320 "best and most interesting colleges in the United States, Canada and Great Britain." Richmond made two special lists in this year's book for having strong programs in business and international studies. The guidebook selects colleges based primarily on academic quality. It includes information about each college's academics, social life, student body, financial aid, campus setting, housing, food and extracurricular activities. Richmond has been chosen for the Fiske Guide in all 26 years the book has been published. *** Agents with Cushman & Wakefield | Thalhimer recently handled the following lease negotiations: John Powell – leased 4,555 square feet at 6500 Dickens Pl.; Now and Then Treasures, LLC – leased 1,500 square feet at 211 W. Williamsburg Rd.; and Caton Business Corporation – leased 1,225 square feet in The Shoppes at Westgate at 11709 W. Broad St. *** Alpha Wealth Advisors, a comprehensive financial service firm founded by Troy L. Flinn, has opened its office in the New York Life Building at 4435 Waterfront Drive, Suite 203 in Innsbrook on July 1. Alpha Wealth Advisors provides wealth management services for individuals and small business owners, as well as a wide range of other services. Thomas Dozier, a 1980 graduate of the University of Richmond, joins Flinn as director of client development. *** Cushman & Wakefield | Thalhimer recently represented The Cellular Connection in the leasing of 3,573 square feet at Staples Mill Retail Center at 7320 Staples Mill Rd. Two additional locations will be opened in Chester and Amelia. The Cellular Connection is the largest Verizon Premium Wireless Retailer in the United States with more than 600 locations across 26 states. *** The National Science Foundation has awarded a three-year, $290,000 grant to Carol Parish, professor of chemistry at the University of Richmond, for molecular research related to alternative fuels, anticancer antibiotics and graphene nanodevices. Parish is collaborating with Hans Lischka, of Texas Tech University, on the project, "Multireference Studies of Organic Polyradicals, Radical Reactions and Graphene Nanoribbons." They expect results from their research to hold significant promise for advancing the fields of multireference theoretical chemistry, mechanistic organic chemistry, materials design and drug optimization. Parish has taught at Richmond since 2005. *** Zinga Frozen Yogurt at Willow Lawn will celebrate its grand opening on Saturday, Aug. 11 from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Jackson, Q94 radio personality, will host a live "instant beach" remote broadcast from noon to 2 p.m. Two free tickets to Justin Bieber's "Believe" concert in November will be given away during that time.

The GitHub samples in this topic demonstrate simple interactions with message content, dynamic target routing and asynchronous callouts. (More advanced samples that demonstrate how to build composite services and how to manage outbound OAuth tokens are covered in the next topics.)
It can be useful to examine the samples and to deploy and invoke to get a sense of how JavaScript fits into an API proxy Flow. At the most basic level you will find that a JavaScript file is referenced by a policy of type Javascript.
For example, the following policy references a JavaScript file called changeResponse.js.
<Javascript name='changeResponse' timeLimit='200'> <ResourceURL>jsc://changeResponse.js</ResourceURL> </Javascript>
for JavaScript resources.You can attach this Policy to an API proxy Flow just like any other Policy type. By attaching the Policy to the API proxy Flow, you indicate where the JavaScript should be executed. You can execute JavaScript in the ProxyEndpoint request Flow to parse request messages, for example. You can also execute JavaScript in the TargetEndpoint request Flow to execute some logic to determine the backend URL to use.
When to use JavaScript
If performance is a concern for custom functionality, use Java where possible.
The procedure to execute JavaScript in an API proxy is as follows:
- Write JavaScript to the JavaScript object model
- Create a JavaScript resource under
in your/apiproxy
- Create a matching policy of type 'Javascript' in
- Attach the policy at the appropriate point in the processing flow
- Upload, deploy, test and trace API calls in the Management UI to debug your JavaScript
Modifying a response message using JavaScript
Creating a JavaScript resource
This example demonstrates a simple JavaScript app that changes a response message by modifying the HTTP headers and payload of a response generated by the backend service. This JavaScript uses Variables reference, which the API Platform makes available as part of standard Flow processing. The variables used here are response message variables: response.status
, response.headers
, and response.content
First let's look at the code for changeResponse.js
context.proxyResponse.status ="200"; context.proxyResponse.setVariable("header.X-Apigee-Demo-Target", context.flow.getVariable("target.name")); context.proxyResponse.headers['X-Apigee-Test-Header-2'][0]='Test-Header 2 Value 0'; context.proxyResponse.headers['X-Apigee-Test-Header-2'][1]='Test-Header 2 Value 1'; context.proxyResponse.content='This is your code on Apigee!';
This JavaScript performs three actions:
- Sets the HTTP status code of the response to 200.
- Creates 3 HTTP headers. The value of the first HTTP header,
is dynamic; it will be set based on the value of the variable that it references:target.name
. The other two are static. - Generates static payload content
You can see that the base JavaScript object is a context
. The context in turn exposes objects the represent messages at each processing stage. In this case, the JavaScript interacts with the proxyResponse
, that is, the response message generated by the ProxyEndpoint. The proxyResponse
in turn has number of associated objects, In this case, the JavaScript interacts with status
, headers
, and content
. (All of these objects are described in JavaScript object model.)
Storing JavaScript as a resource
JavaScript (like other resources such as Python scripts, Java JAR files, and XSLT files) can be stored in the API proxy, in the environment, and in the organization. Once you have the file called changeResponse.js
, store it under/apiproxy/resources/jsc
Creating a JavaScript policy
JavaScript resources are executed by policies of type Javascript. The Policy rellay just provides a reference to the file containing the JavaScript. A Javascript policy references a JavaScript resource by name as ResourceURL
. For example, to create a policy that references a JavaScript resources named changeResponse.js
, the following policy would be created under/apiproxy/policies
<Javascript name='changeResponse' timeLimit='200'> <ResourceURL>jsc://changeResponse.js</ResourceURL> </Javascript>
The maximum time limit permitted for JavaScript policies to execute in environments in free trial organization is 200 milliseconds.
Attaching JavaScript policies to an API proxy Flow
The following configuration demonstrates the attachment of a Javascript policy to a ProxyEndpoint response Flow. The Policy is attached to the response Flow because the JavaScript that it references modifies the response message before it is sent to the requesting client app:
<ProxyEndpoint name="default"> <PostFlow> <Response> <Step><Name>changeResponse</Name></Step> </Response> </PostFlow> <HTTPProxyConnection> <BasePath>/weather</BasePath> <VirtualHost>default</VirtualHost> </HTTPProxyConnection> <RouteRule name="default"> <TargetEndpoint>default</TargetEndpoint> </RouteRule> </ProxyEndpoint>
Importing and deploying the API proxy
The deploy tool can be used to deploy the API proxy by substituting valid values for username, password, and organization.
$ python tools/deploy.py -n weatherapi -u myname:mypass -o {org_name} -e test -p / -d simpleProxy
Writing simpleProxy/apiproxy/weatherapi.xml to apiproxy/weatherapi.xml Writing simpleProxy/apiproxy/policies/ChangeResponse.xml to apiproxy/policies/ChangeResponse.xml Writing simpleProxy/apiproxy/proxies/default.xml to apiproxy/proxies/default.xml Writing simpleProxy/apiproxy/resources/jsc/changeResponse.jsc to apiproxy/resources/jsc/changeResponse.jsc Writing simpleProxy/apiproxy/targets/default.xml to apiproxy/targets/default.xml Imported new proxy version 1 Environment: test Revision: 1 BasePath = / State: deployed
Testing JavaScript
The curl flag -v
can be used to view HTTP headers on the response message modified by the JavaScript.
Submit a request as follows:
$ curl -v http://{org_name}-test.apigee.net/weather
If the JavaScript executes properly, you will get the following response:
< X-Apigee-Test-Header-1: Test-Header 1 Value 0 < X-Apigee-Test-Header-2: Test-Header 2 Value 0 < X-Apigee-Test-Header-2: Test-Header 2 Value 1 < Content-Length: 27 This is your code on Apigee!
You can now modify the JavaScript to try new things, redeploy the API proxy, and verify the results by submitting the same request.
Working with variables
To implement dynamic behavior using JavaScript, you will typically find your self working with variables. JavaScript on the API Platform is used for setting and getting of variables. You will usually get variables on incoming request and response messages, and you'll often set variables on outbound request and response messages.
To use a simple example, let's look at JavaScript that gets the value of a Flow variable, and then set that value as a custom HTTP header on the proxyResponse message. These kinds of operations can be useful for debugging.
The variable proxy.url
is a 'pre-defined variable', one of many defined by the API Platform. You don't have to do any configuration to make these variables available. They are an affordance that provides a context for every API proxy transaction.
context.proxyResponse.setVariable("header.X-Apigee-Demo-ProxyUrl", context.flow.getVariable("proxy.url"));
If you needed to set this HTTP header on the outbound request message, that is, the message form the API proxy to your backend service, you could do the following:
context.targetRequest.setVariable("header.X-Apigee-Demo-ProxyUrl", context.flow.getVariable("proxy.url"));
Working with custom variables
The Policy below parses the request URI path and populates one custom variables: WOEID.location
<ExtractVariables name="extractId"> <URIPath> <Pattern ignoreCase="true">/WOEID/{location}</Pattern> </URIPath> <IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>false</IgnoreUnresolvedVariables> <VariablePrefix>WOEID</VariablePrefix> </ExtractVariables>
When the following request is received
the following custom variable is populated:
You could then use that value to rewrite the variable that governs the target URL. In the following JavaScript,
context.setVariable("target.url", "http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w="+context.getVariable("WOEID.location"));
More commonly, though, when writing JavaScript you will be working with message content, whether JSON or XML. Again, you use the ExtractVariables policy type to pull data from message content and populate variables.
The Policy below parses the response message and populates two custom variables: response.latutude
and response.longitude
<ExtractVariables name="ParseResponse"> <Source>response</Source> <VariablePrefix>response</VariablePrefix> <JSONPayload> <Variable name="latitude"> <JSONPath>$.results[0].geometry.location.lat</JSONPath> </Variable> <Variable name="longitude"> <JSONPath>$.results[0].geometry.location.lng</JSONPath> </Variable> </JSONPayload>
Dynamically setting the target URL
A common usage of JavaScript is to set the target URL for outbound requests. You might need to set the outbound URL dynamically based on payload content or on other contextual information.
In this example, you write JavaScript that sets a variable based on the value of another variable that it gets. Continuing with the reference example that proxies the Yahoo! weather API, we can write JavaScript to set the value of target.url
based on the path.uri
. The effect of this JavaScript is to extract the WEOID query parameter from the request, and then to set it as the target URL for the outbound request.
This logic is implemented in the following JavaScript:
context.setVariable("target.url", "http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w="+context.getVariable("path.uri"));
<ProxyEndpoint name="default"> <PreFlow name="PreFlow"> <Request> <Step> <Name>ExtractId</Name> </Step> </Request> </PreFlow> <HTTPProxyConnection> <BasePath>/yahoo</BasePath> <VirtualHost>default</VirtualHost> </HTTPProxyConnection> <RouteRule name="YahooRoute"> <TargetEndpoint>default</TargetEndpoint> </RouteRule> </ProxyEndpoint>

The ultimate goal of hand surgery is to restore and maintain the function and appearance of your child's hand.
There are multiple types of congenital hand abnormalities, which generally fall into one of the following classifications:
Failure of formation
Failure of differentiation
Constriction ring syndrome (fibrous bands of the amniotic sac that contains the foetus within the womb become tangled around the limbs or digits causing them to swell)
Generalised abnormalities
Congenital hand problems can include lack of fingers or thumb, extra digits, over- or under-development of digits, clefts, conjoined digits, or curved digits. Not all abnormalities require hand surgery. Some – for example, figures that are too curved can be treated using splints alone, or with a combination of splints and later hand surgery. In other cases, there are strong cosmetic and functional reasons to have specialist paediatric hand surgery done as early as possible.
Hand surgery can usually be done soon after the age of 6 months, when your child is large enough to have a general anaesthetic. Removing the problem at this age will allow your child to develop normal hand function as they grow. Early hand surgery will also help to prevent the development of permanent deformity that could make them the focus of teasing and bullying at school.
Some congenital hand abnormalities that are typically treated with hand surgery include:
Syndactyly – where the web spaces between digits have not divided and the digits need to be separated. The condition is described as simple if there is fusion of soft tissues only, or complex if the bones are also fused
Polydactyly – duplication of any of the digits, most commonly the thumb
Hypoplastic thumb – an under-developed thumb that can't be used normally
Ganglion – a harmless cyst-like swelling next to a joint or tendon in the wrist
Radial or ulnar club hand - both are rare conditions that result from underdevelopment of either the thumb side of the hand or the little finger side
Congenital trigger thumb and finger – this is caused by thickening of the tendons or muscles just below the digits
Hand surgery can involve several different types of procedures, such as separation of soft tissue, separation of fused bones, tendon transfer, stretching or manipulation of the hand and its internal structures. Surgeons may also perform skin grafts, digit reconstruction/toe-to-hand transfer, and make use of prosthetics to rebuild your child's hand.

This is another link to many articles related to the Pritzker subprime scandal.http://www.nowpublic.com/world/obama-finance-chair-tied-subprime-scandal
Everyday another outrage!I read the morning headlines and say "of course".Obamanation = ruination
Penny Pritzker is the template that Mozillo over at Counrtywide COPIED.She should be in jail.Or under it.Instead, she is a Democrat STAR.Tells you all you need to know about Democrats.
This is the strong-arm fund raiser who was reported to be organizing and funding the retirement estate for the Obamas in Hawaii. I ´d give her a cushy job too.
She is a perfect fit for his administration.
Cabinet members are just window dressing with this administration anyway.
One has only to look into the backgrounds of all obummer´s nominees to see corruption on a grand scale shamelessly paraded for all to see.
A company I worked with decades ago had close dealings with the Hyatt Pritzkers, but steered clear of Penny. She was considered to be "shady" and dishonest back then.
OMG!I cannot believe this POTUS! Every choice he makes is so laden with evil-intent ---- it is hard to know where to begin.Penny !!! ???Folks, I´m beginning to believe that Obama has an unconscious drive or pull to behave in a way that will cause us (the American public) and HIMSELF a lot of trouble. Surely, to Heaven, he realizes (at some level) how contentious these choices are!
So, his first administration was staffed with losers and now his second will be staffed with un-convicted crooks? what a guy!
Obama screen job applicants. Any applicant that is not corrupt, incompetent, unethical, and a communist is thrown out.
The Chicago Way - a deadly virus that now infects nearly every aspect of American life. One of his many shortcomings has always been that B.0. never cultivated relationships with "folks" outside of the windy city. But we all saw that 5 years ago.Ramona (the Pest)
Of course, how do you think she qualified?
Who knew his ´bottom of the barrel´ had a basement ?Friend of ValJar ?Any more friends from back home available ?
