A Commitment | BetaWorldProblems
June 11, 2015 by betaveros
Obligatory life update: I have graduated [from] high school.
But that’s not what this post is about. I contemplated setting up a schedule for my blogging three long years ago, and decided against it, because I didn’t think writing was a high enough priority for me. Well, I am setting up a schedule now: I am going to post something on this blog every day until I have to leave the country (which is happening once before college, so it’s not for as long as you think; but I might decide to continue the schedule anyway after I get back. We’ll see when the time comes.)
This has nothing to do with writing; it has everything to do with following through by actually posting the stuff I write. As of the last time I attempted to summarize my blogging status, I had 12 blog post drafts. By looking at chat logs I think it was February 7. As of starting this post, I now have, I don’t know, somewhere between 13 and 30, I lost count. I am very good at getting inspired and writing a lot of incoherent jumbles of words, and very bad at coming back the next day (or week, or month, or year) and polishing the word jumble enough to feel like I should post it. This is not a sustainable way of blogging. And since high school is over I can no longer claim that homework or other commitments are getting in the way.
Standard disclaimers: Expect low-quality stuff that is incomplete or not well thought out, and stuff entirely unlike anything previously on this blog, and one-paragraph or even one-sentence posts if I get desperate. But expect posts. And nag me (or better yet, provide post ideas (that can be explored in a single sentence)) through any communication channels you want if it’s nearing midnight in my time zone and I haven’t posted in the previous day.
This is the first day’s post.

To Webmaster; I hope you don’t log IPs.
WordPress does that automatically for comments, actually, and I don’t think I can turn it off without moving my blog somewhere else to my own server and paying for it, for which this isn’t enough motivation. Although only I can see them and and I promise not to do anything shady with it. I don’t know, it might be a useful moderation tool in the future. Does it really bother you?

US 6191614 B1Abstract
A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) register is connected to the bi-directional bus and a packet processor in a configuration circuit of an FPGA. The CRC register performs transmission error detection functions based on the command/data transmissions to various registers connected to the bus, and based on the address information transmitted from the packet processor to an address/operand decoder used to enable the various registers to receive subsequent command/data words. The CRC register calculates a check-sum value in accordance with a predetermined equation. At any time during the transmission (e.g., halfway through configuration or at the end of configuration), a pre-calculated check-sum value is transmitted to the CRC register that represents an expected check-sum value at the selected time. The pre-calculated check-sum value is then compared with the check-sum value currently stored in the CRC register. If the pre-calculated check-sum value does not equal the current check-sum value, then an error signal is generated that notifies a user that a transmission error has occurred.
This application claims the benefit of co-pending provisional U.S. Patent Application No. 60/127,860, invented by David P. Schultz, Steven P. Young, Lawrence C. Hung, and F. Erich Goetting and filed Apr. 5, 1999, which is incorporated herein by reference.

US RE38675 E1Abstract
A solution of 5.24 pounds of polyvinyl alcohol (Airvol 203), 2.38 pounds of an aqueous solution of 20% polydimethyl siloxane antifoam agent (Dow Corning� 1520), and 0.21 pound of xanthan gum viscosity modified/stabilizer (Kelzan� S) in 284.20 pounds of water was placed in a 500 gallon stainless steel vessel, and stirred at 80� C. for one hour. After this time the solution was cooled to 20� C. and placed in an 80 gallon batch homogenizer. With the homogenizer in operation, a pre-blended solution of 161.34 pounds of technical clomazone, 34.75 pounds of polymethylene polyphenyl isocyanate (PMPPI, Mondur� MR), and 34.75 pounds of petroleum solvent (a mixture of C9-C15 aromatic hydrocarbons, flash-point 95� C., Aromatic 200) was fed by gravity into the homogenizer during a 15 to 90 second period. The mixture was homogenized for two to three minutes. Upon completion of the homogenization, the mixture was placed in a jacketed reactor with the jacket pre-heated to 50� C. To the jacketed reactor was added, over a period of 30 seconds, an amine mixture consisting of 10.97 pounds of triethylenetetramine (TETA) and 10.97 pounds of 1, 6-hexanediamine (HDA). After the amine addition was completed, the mixture was cured with agitation at 25� C. to 50� C. during a four hour period. At the end of the curing period, 35.70 pounds of propylene glycol and 1.19 pounds of xanthan gum were added to stabilize the formulation. The formulation was then cooled to below 30� C. and stored for later use. It had a viscosity of 1870 cps and a suspensibility of 82%. Both formulations described in Tables 3 and 4 were prepared in the manner of Example 2. Formulation A-1 is a larger scale version of Formulation A, and Formulation E-1 is a larger scale version of Formulation E.
Seeds of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), giant foxtail (Setaria faberi), yellow foxtail (Setaria lutescens), shattercane (Sorghum bicolor), and velvetleaf (Abutlion theophrasti) were planted in a 25 cm�15 cm�7.5 cm fiber flat containing topsoil. Each species was planted as a single row in the flat, which contained five rows. There were four replicate flats of plants for each rate of application of test formulation. Stock dispersions of each of the test formulations were prepared by dispersing a sufficient amount of formulation to provide 0.0356 gram of active ingredient in 40 mL of water. From the stock dispersion 20 mL was removed and serially diluted with 20 mL of water to provide application rates of 0.25, 0.125, 0.0625, 0.0313, 0.0156, and 0.0078 kg. a.i./ha. The dispersions of test formulation for each rate of application were then sprayed onto the surface of the soil by a track-sprayer in a sprayhood. Flats were also sprayed as above with the same rates of the standard Command� 4 EC Herbicide. Untreated controls were also included in each test. Upon completion of the spraying the flats were placed in a greenhouse, where they were maintained for fourteen days. After this time the test was visually evaluated for percent weed control. The percent weed control data for each test formulation and the Command 4 EC Herbicide formulation was subjected to regression analysis to determine the rate of application that would provide 85% weed control (ED85) of each of the weed species. From these data the relative potencies of the test formulations (the relative potency of the Command 4 EC Herbicide is 1.0) were determined by means of the following ratio: Fromulation   Relative   Potancy = Formulation   ED 85 Command   Herbicide   ED 85 The test results shown in Table 9 show relatively poor performance for Formulation E in the greenhouse. As shown below, performance of Formulation E in the field was excellent. The reason for the difference between greenhouse and field performance is not understood. However, the greenhouse performance of Formulation P was excellent, as was performance in the field, as shown below.”

User phil - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Yes, it is...but thank you for the help.
I don't know, the problem is that I have to hand this exercise in in half an hour...1/n^(2k)?
Yes he wants to see a proof, but I thought the fact that I have proved the p-test for another exercice,would make it possible, that I could use this.Do you have a suggestion for an other proof?Perhaps the integral test?
I know that the majorant is in this intervall 0<k<1 divergent, is that explanation enough?
Thank you that was really helpful.My fault was that I have tried to do it by a majorant which diverges...
Thanks now I see it in 3) so to do the comparison test of a fraction with 2 polynoms, I always have to neglect the other terms from lower degree in the denominator and after this I only have regard the different serie terms with the p-test?
then if it works for 3), it also works for 1) and i can say that it's convergent because "1)" = $1/l^2$ and that converges?
perhaps.. I thougth I should write the 3 series because my questions are quite connected for the 3 series.
So I can neglect the other terms,in the same way as if I would regard the limit of a sequence?
I think now I have understood (3), thank you.
Well, then M = {pi/4;pi/2;3/4*pi;pi;5pi/4;3pi/2;7pi/2;2pi} because that are all the values for a_n with $n \in \mathbb{N_0}$, right?
I think I haven't really understood what M is...M is every number for $a_n$ with $n \in N$ is that right?

Still Warm Beauty | Jane Davitt Hewey
By janehewey	A small grey breast fatigued, a beak
the shroud of song, a pulse
at fail to wanting wings whose
tail tips pinstripe her gratified tongue.
It is her offering. Here, she seems to say
with wide eyes and full maw, this
still warm beauty, this kill, this skill hunted,
this sublime vignette is for you.
I feel wild for a moment, hungry
watching a single downy feather
lift with the passing breeze.
Linked to DVersePoetsPub w/ Tony Maude. After reading Tony’s prompt, I lopped the first stanza off of a poem I posted yesterday. The first lines contain technical information, and I wonder how it reads without them. I’d love to hear your feedback. Try not to read the first 7 comments as they give too much info. Cheers, poets! I am headed out to your blogs. Like this:Like Loading...

Hey Jane–I am pressing “like” but I cannot truly like except as poetry, since my sympathy here is so much for the bird. In this regard, did you read the NY Times article about the devastation committed by cats on birds!?
But back to the poem – it is a song in itself and a pouncing onto this moment–so many beautiful descriptions and combinations that tailspin into unspoken but thought combinations–tailspin being one of them and even the pin stripes on the tongue make me think almost of a butterfly caught and pinned on a wall–something beautiful anyway, captured. The wild vigor of your receipt is also very human and like the swooping of a bird–and the breeze is a bit of the downdraft of that–Still Warm Beauty a great title, as it also is like a still(ed) life. Thanks. k.
Reply	janehewey	October 21st, 2013 at 6:22 pm
Karin, I truly favor the bird, though you’d never know by this poem. As I began writing, I became less angered with the little feline and more fascinated by her nature. This is nothing new around here, we have had many cats come and go, and have loved them thoroughly. It was when the single feathers lifted off the porch that I felt some sort of crazy redemption for the bird… and for my own personal acceptance of the cat’s nature. Thank you for reading and for your really beautiful comments. The thought of a butterfly caught and pinned is a great comparison. There is beauty in the physical state, and certain beauty in nature fleetingly captured.
Reply	ManicDdaily	October 21st, 2013 at 7:24 pm
Hey Jane–I think your sympathy for the bird is implied really–you are almost shocked at being caught up in the feline gift. If you wanted to make that sense of conflictedness stronger, you might rethink ‘clear’–I think that the word speaks here of the kind of animal instinct of it–the sharpness and transparency, but others might take it as being clear-headed. I am not suggesting a change at all as I think the whole thing works super well and is just like that pounce and feel and then kind of sense of randomness at the end of it all–instinct acting, then letting go– the breeze–but if people misinterprete your stance, it may come from that word. Just a thought. You’ll have to see how people take it and how you yourself feel about it over time. Thanks much for taking the time to re-read my poem. Hard to ever know what works best! k.

You’ve nailed the exact word I keep putting in and taking out. I often post too early in a poem’s life, and I think like a lot of us, end up editing off n on for another while. THank you for your careful read. I think you are wise, I’ll see what responses come. Maybe there is a way to make clear more clear… thank you, verymuch. annotating60	October 21st, 2013 at 7:13 pm

oh my, a rabbit! that speaks of the difference in our locations, I think. My little urban calico is only about the size of a large rabbit. Hopefully she is keeping the rodents at bay. Thank you for coming by today, KB. Reply	brian miller	October 22nd, 2013 at 2:45 am
wow…great closing image….the feathers floating of fthe deck and your sense of wildness as well…a bit of connection there between you and the cat…smiles…mine brings me treats…all wanting us to be proud of what they can do…maybe how they show love as well…

Oh cats can bring all kind of gifts.. also those that bring tears to our eyes.. I recall when we had a cat… mice was ok… but the birds (especially it it was a robin).. loved the end of the second stanza.

I read this yesterday on FB, Jane, and of course, I don’t retain much of it in a literal fashion as my short term memory is challenged these days, to say the least, but I do feel the poem reads better today as poetry–it is more immediate, more intense. I remember the first stanza as measured, an introduction, sort of scene setting–this is very sharp and clear without it. I feel the last lines may be different also somehow–it seems a bit more abrupt, and I don’t get quite the sense of out-of-self, into cat-mind and beyond from it, though it still has a strong resolution. Anyway, I like it very much, and I like the way your mind makes these leaps accessible.

For me this brings home the fragility I’m feeling right now in the face of death…that is, the school shooting in our community. I’ve written a couple of poems about dead birds. It gives us pause to consider their beauty in detail and the reality of transience. The title is perfect.

me too, Mary. THank you. Reply	Tony Maude	October 22nd, 2013 at 9:45 pm
Now I’m wondering what the first stanza said … smiles. However, although the identity of the killer is not obvious here, the victim is certainly well described.
I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve been advised/heard others advised/read that we should start our writing in the middle of the action, rather than take too long introducing the themes and characters and otherwise setting the scene.
Reply	Alex Dissing	October 22nd, 2013 at 9:47 pm
That last image really caught my attention. I’m always fascinated when I see anything floating around in the wind, whether that be a feather, a balloon, a leaf… makes me wonder where it will eventually end up.

tremendous poetry. One of your best I’ve read, Jane. I don’t know what the first stanza was but it sure as hell works as it is. Like Karin, cat’s make me so angry killing birds and not even eating them because they are domesticated and fed by their owners. Humans messing with nature (again).
But fine, fine poetry. Really. I don’t say that often. Here is where it really draws on the full power of art and craft together, the stanza-break very effective – this sublime vignette is for you.

Nine wins mean nothing if we don't qualify for Asian Cup:Coach | Football News - Times of India
PTI | Aug 20, 2017, 11:33 IST
India registered their ninth win on the trot when they trounced Mauritius in the tri-nation series opener 2-1, courtesy strikes by forwards Robin Singh and Balwant Singh on either sides of the break.
"It (nine wins on the trot) makes nothing if we don't qualify for the Asian Cup, that's what it means. I am proud to have made this little bit of history but if I don't qualify for the Asian Cup, what's the use of nine wins in a row, or 10 or 11 or 12," he told reporters here last night.
"Records are there and they are nice. It is important to win, we want to win to continue to win, but our focus is 1000 per cent on Macau. We need to get something in that game (against Macau), bring home and finish it (qualify)," he quipped ahead of the game on September 5.
"Ok, not happy, happy but, I am ok. I have seen Mauritius, I knew they were going to play like this and they perhaps could have played a little bit better.
He further praised skipper and central midfielder Sandesh Jhinghan saying he is player "who should be playing in bigger league".
"The captain has to reflect the character of the coach, Sandesh is a fighter just like me. He leads by example and I think when Sunil (Chettri) is ready to packing in, we have one more person who can be captain," he added.

Quests | Hypixel SkyBlock Wiki | Fandom
Quests, SkyBlock Menu
A fully completed quest log
Quests is a gameplay mechanic that allows new players to explore the world and earn rewards for doing tasks. Different quests have different tasks that can require players to collect or find certain items or explore an area.
Note: This page will contain several spoilers on how to complete each quest. It is ordered in the recommended order of completion, although players are free to complete these in any order they prefer.
To find NPCs, press F3 on the keyboard and use the coordinates listed after the XYZ. Also, if one's inventory ever becomes full, remember to utilize the personal ender chest found in the SkyBlock Menu. These quests were completed on an alternate account and not by guesswork so every quest mentioned in this guide should be possible.
† not listed in the quest book but acts in the same way all other quests do.
The quest log can be found using the SkyBlock Menu. It keeps track of active quests, the player's progress, and completed quests.
Quest: Getting Started
Start Req.
None (start game with it)
This is the first quest players get and it is the only quest given on the Private Island. To begin this quest, players need to break at least one log on the player island by breaking it with fists. Then, craft a crafting table by converting all this oak wood into planks, and convert two planks into sticks and make a wooden pickaxe. Use the rest of the wooden planks to build across to Jerry and right-click him. After the messages are read, walk through the nether portal. This will unlock more quests to complete.
These are quests tied to nearly every area on the map.
Quest: Fairy Souls

【発明の詳細な説明】 （産業上の利用分野） 本発明は中継局を含む無線電話システムに係り、特に呼接続処理技術に関する。 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION (FIELD OF THE INVENTION) The present invention relates to a radio telephone system including a relay station, in particular, the call connection processing technology.
（従来の技術） 本発明が対象とする無線電話システムは、基本的には第６図に示す如く、基地局61と、中継局62と、子局63とで構成され、子局63および基地局61には電話機64、同65がそれぞれ接続されている。 Radio telephone system (prior art) the invention is directed is basically as shown in Figure 6, the base station 61, the relay station 62, is composed of a slave station 63, slave stations 63 and the base the station 61 telephones 64, the 65 is connected, respectively.
この種の無線電話システムでは、システム全体の消費電力の低減を図るために、基地局61が放送する所定の制御信号に同期して中継局62および子局63が一斉に一定時間非動作状態になるバッテリセービング技術が採用されている。 In this type of wireless telephone system, in order to reduce the power consumption of the entire system, the predetermined time non-operating state in synchronization with the simultaneous relay station 62 and slave station 63 to a predetermined control signal from the base station 61 broadcasts battery saving technology has been adopted to be.
即ち、この種の無線電話システムでは、システム全体として呼接続処理を行う動作期間と呼接続処理を行わない非動作期間とが存し、動作期間が非動作期間を挟んで繰り返すようになっている。 That is, in this kind of radio telephone system, and a non-operation period is not performed the operation period and the call connection process for a call connection process resides, operating period is made to repeat across the non-operation period as a whole system .
そして、動作期間内に子局から基地局への着呼応答や発呼要求を中継した中継局のみがその後の非動作期間の周期に入っても中継動作を継続する、つまりバッテリセービングをしないようになっている。 Even contains only relay station which relays the call response and call request to the base station from the slave station within the operation period to the period of the subsequent non-operation period is continued relay operation, i.e. not to the battery saving It has become. なお、全システムの動作期間はバッテリセービング技術の趣旨から非動作期間よりも極めて短いのが一般である。 The operation period of the entire system of extremely shorter than the non-operation period from the spirit of the battery saving techniques are generally.
（発明が解決しようとする問題点） ところで、このような無線電話システムにおける従来の呼接続処理方式にあっては、中継局のバッテリセービングを止めるには動作期間内に呼接続処理を行わねばならないが、この動作期間は短いので、子局においては発呼が集中し衝突する可能性が高まり、呼損率が増加し、また接続に長時間を要する事態を招来する。 (To be Solved by the Invention Problems) However, in the conventional call connection processing method in such a radio telephone system, to stop the battery saving relay station must perform a call connection process to the operation period but since the operation period is shorter, more likely to collide with concentrated call in the slave station, blocking probability increases, and also lead to a situation that requires a long time for the connection. また、基地局においては一斉に集中する呼を短期間に処理しなければならないので、高速化が要求されるなどの問題点がある。 Further, since the must process the call to concentrate simultaneously in a short period of time at the base station, there are problems such as high speed is required.
本発明は従来のこのような問題点に鑑みなされたもので、その目的はシステムとしての非動作期間においても呼接続処理が行える無線電話システムを提供することにある。 The present invention has been made in view of the prior art these problems, and its object is to provide a wireless telephone system that can also call connection processing in the non-operation period of the system.
（問題点を解決するための手段） 前記目的を達成するために、本発明の無線電話システムは次の如き構成を有する。 To achieve the above object (means for solving the problem), a radio telephone system of the present invention has the following such configuration.
即ち、本発明の無線電話システムは、基地局と、この基地局を中心に散在する中継局の複数個と、この中継局を介して前記基地局と通信を行う子局の複数個とで構成され、前記基地局が放送する制御信号に従って前記中継局および子局が一斉に一定時間非動作状態となり、システム全体として動作期間と非動作期間とが交互に繰り返す無線電話システムにおいて、前記子局は、発呼要求を受けて前記動作期間において前記基地局が感応しない所定信号を基地局へ向けて所定周期で断続送出する信号送出手段と；前記所定信号送出後の非動作期間において前記制御信号が前記中継局を介して受信されるのを確認する確認手段と；前記確認動作を行った非動作期間において発呼信号を送出する発呼信号送出手段と；を備え、かつ前記中継局は、基 That is, the wireless telephone system of the present invention, composed of a base station, a plurality of relay stations scattered around this base station, a plurality of slave stations communicating with the base station via the relay station is, the base station becomes constant time non-operating state all at once the relay station and the slave station in accordance with the control signal to be broadcast, and the operation period and the non-operation period as a whole system in a wireless telephone system alternately, the child station , signal transmitting means and intermittently transmitted at predetermined periods toward a predetermined signal by the base station is not sensitive in the operating period by receiving a call request to the base station; said control signal in a non-operation period after the predetermined signaling wherein the confirmation means for confirming that the received through the relay station; and the calling signal transmitting means for transmitting a call signal in the confirming operation of the non-operation period was performed; equipped with, and the RS group 局へ向けて送出された前記所定信号を受けて引き続く非動作期間も中継動作を続行する中継動作継続手段；を備えることを特徴とする。 Non operation period subsequent to receiving the predetermined signal sent towards the station also relay operation continuation means for continuing relay operation; characterized in that it comprises a.
（作 用） 次に、前記の如く構成される本発明の無線電話システムの作用を説明する。 (For work) Next, the operation of the radio telephone system of the present invention the as configured.
まず、子局は自局における発呼要求を受けて、信号送出手段がシステム全体としての動作期間において、基地局が感応しない所定信号を基地局へ向けて所定周期で断続送出すると、この所定信号を受信した中継局は、中継動作継続手段が起動されるので、引き続く非動作期間も中継動作を続行することになる。 First, the slave station receives a call request at the mobile station, during the operation period of the signal transmission means as a whole system, the intermittently transmitted at predetermined periods toward a predetermined signal by the base station is not sensitive to the base station, the predetermined signal relay station which has received since relay operation continuation means is activated, so that also continue relaying operation subsequent non-operation period. 従って、基地局が送信する制御信号は、システム全体としての非動作期間において前記中継動作を継続する中継局は制御信号を中継して子局へ伝達する。 Therefore, the control signal transmitted by the base station, the relay station to continue the relay operation in a non-operation period of the entire system and transmits the relay control signal to the slave station.
そこで、子局は、確認手段が前記所定信号送出後の非動作期間において前記制御信号が前記中継局を介して受信されるのを確認し、その確認動作を行った非動作期間において、発呼信号送出手段が発呼信号を送出するのである。 Therefore, the slave station, the control signal is confirmed from being received through the relay station in confirmation means inoperative period after the predetermined signal transmitted in the non-operation period of performing the confirmation operation, the calling signal sending means is for sending a call signal.
その結果、システム全体としては非動作期間であるにも拘らず中継動作継続する中継局によって発呼信号が基地局へ中継され、基地局はその非動作期間において呼接続処理が行えることとなる。 As a result, the overall system call signal by the relay station continuing relay operation despite a non-operation period is relayed to the base station, the base station and thus capable of performing call connection processing at the non-operation period.
従って、子局においては基地局へ向けて発する発呼の衝突が回避されるので呼接率が上昇し、また基地局においては呼接続処理を全局の非動作期間においても行うことになるので接続処理時間が平準化・短縮化されるという利点がある。 Accordingly, since the collision of call emanating towards the base station is avoided in the slave station call contact ratio is increased, and since it also becomes possible to perform the non-operating period of the all-station call connection processing in the base station connected processing time there is an advantage that is leveled-shortened.

次に、第２図は本発明の一実施例に係る子局を示す。 Next, FIG. 2 shows a slave station according to an embodiment of the present invention. 第２図において、符号31は前記中継局と電話授受を行うためのアンテナであり、このアンテナ31にはアンテナ共用器32を介して受信機33と送信機34とがそれぞれ接続されている。 In Figure 2, reference numeral 31 is an antenna for performing a telephone exchange and the relay station, and the receiver 33 via the antenna duplexer 32 and a transmitter 34 are connected to the antenna 31.

ここで、子局においても、図示省略したが、中継局と同様に受信機33と送信機34の供給電源をオンオフする手段を設けてあるので、子局は中継局と共に一定時間の非動作状態を一定の周期（バッテリセービング周期）で繰り返すようになっており、このバッテリセービング周期の制御は基地局が常時送信している第３図に示す如き制御信号に基づき行われる。 Here, also in the slave station, although not shown, since is provided a means for turning on and off the power supply of the transmitter 34 and the relay station as well as the receiver 33, the slave stations are non-operating state for a certain period of time together with the relay station the being adapted to repeat at a predetermined period (battery saving period), control of the battery saving period is performed based on the control signal as shown in Figure 3 the base station is transmitting continuously. 即ち、基地局は、第３図に示す如く、時系列時に「PRE」，「SYNC」，「BS」，「＃C That is, the base station, as shown in Figure 3, during the time-series "PRE", "SYNC", "BS", "# C
H」，…，「PRE」，…と連続する制御信号を常時放送しており、適宜な繰り返し周期（前記バッテリセービング周期）でバッテリセービング周期コード「BS」の内容を「電源をオフにする」指令に変更し、中継局および子局を一定時間非動作状態にするようにしている。 H ", ...," PRE ", ... it is broadcast at all times a control signal which is continuous with the contents of the battery saving period code appropriate repetition period (the battery saving period)" BS "to turn off the" power " change to the command, and the relay station and the slave station so that the predetermined time non-operating state.
中継局では、電源コントロールスイッチ８は、BS長タイマ部15の出力レベルが“1"である期間（動作期間）閉成し、BS長タイマ部15の出力レベルが“0"である期間（非動作期間）開成するようになっている。 The relay station, the power control switch 8, BS length output level of the timer 15 is time (operation period) closed is "1", the output level of the BS-length timer 15 is "0" period (non operation period) is adapted to open. 動作期間においては、受信機４が出力する基地局からの制御信号が遅延部10とSYNCコード検出部11とBS信号検出部12とへそれぞれ入力し、まずSYNCコード検出部11において識別コード「SYNC」を検出して信号長タイマ部14を起動し、一定時間アンドゲート13を導通状態にし、遅延部10が適宜時間遅延して出力する制御信号を送信機22、アンテナ共用器６、アンテナ２を介して子局へ伝達する中継動作が行われる。 In the operation period, the control signal from the base station to the receiver 4 outputs is inputted to the delay unit 10 and the SYNC code detection unit 11 and the BS signal detector 12. firstly identification code "SYNC in SYNC code detection unit 11 detecting the "start signal length timer unit 14, and a conductive state for a predetermined period of time the aND gate 13, the transmitter 22 a control signal delay unit 10, and outputs the delay appropriately time, an antenna duplexer 6, the antenna 2 relay operation is performed for transmission to the slave station through.
次いで、以上の中継動作をしている際に、BS信号検出部 Then, when you are the more relay operation, BS signal detector
12において制御信号のバッテリセービング同期コード「BS」の内容が「電源をオフにする」指令であることが検出されると、BS長タイマ部15が起動される。 If it is detected battery saving synchronous control code contents of "BS" is "Turning off" is an instruction in 12, BS-length timer 15 is activated. すると、 Then,
BS長タイマ部15は出力レベルを“1"から“0"に変化させて電源コントロールスイッチ８を開成させ、非動作期間に移行する。 BS-length timer 15 is open the power control switch 8 is changed from "0" to "1" the output level, the process proceeds to a non-operation period. そして、一定時間の非動作期間が経過すると、BS長タイマ部15は再び出力レベルを“0"から“1"に変化させて電源コントロールスイッチ８を閉成させ、動作期間に移行する。 When the non-operating period of the predetermined time has elapsed, BS-length timer 15 to close the power control switch 8 is changed to "1" from "0" to output level again, the process proceeds to operation period. このようにして、中継局は基地局が送信する制御信号に基づき動作期間と非動作期間を交互に繰り返すのであり、BS長タイム部15の出力レベルの変化態様が動作期間と非動作期間の変化態様にそれぞれ対応するのである。 In this way, the relay station is of repeating alternately the operation period and the non-operation period based on the control signal transmitted by the base station, change in the BS length variants the operation period and the non-operating period of the output level of the time section 15 it is corresponding to each of the embodiments.
以上の動作は子局においても同様であり、中継に係る制御信号の「SYNC」がSYNCコード検出部35で、また「BS」 Above operation is the same in the slave station, the "SYNC" is SYNC code detection unit 35 of the control signals according to the relay, also "BS"
がBS信号検出部36でそれぞれ検出される。 There are detected by the BS signal detection unit 36. 第４図において、符号40は制御部38へ入力するBS長タイマ部37の出力信号であり、この出力信号40の出力レベルは、中継局におけるBS長タイマ部15の出力信号のレベル変化態様と同様のタイミングで変化し、動作期間T 4と非動作期間T 5とが交互に繰り返している。 In Figure 4, reference numeral 40 is an output signal of the BS-length timer unit 37 to be input to the control unit 38, the output level of the output signal 40 has a level change mode of the output signal of the BS-length timer section 15 in the relay station change at the same timing, the operation period T 4 and the non-operation period T 5 are repeated alternately.
このように、本発明が対象とする無線電話システムでは、全ての中継局と全ての子局がシステム全体として一様に動作期間と非動作期間とを繰り返すようになっている。 Thus, in the radio telephone system to which the present invention is applied, all the relay stations and all slave stations is adapted to repeat the uniform operation period and a non-operation period as a whole system.
今、ある子局において発呼要求があると、その子局では、制御部38が全局の動作期間T 4の開始時点を監視し、 Now, if there is a call request in a certain slave station, in the child station, control unit 38 monitors the start of the operation period T 4 in all the stations,
全局の動作期間T 4が開始するとバッテリセービング中止コード送出部39へ指令信号を与える。 When the operating period T 4 for all stations to start gives a command signal to battery saving stop cord feeding portion 39. バッテリセービング中止コード送出部39では、例えば全局の動作期間T 4の開始時点からT 1時間経過後、またT 1時間経過時点からT 2 Battery saving stop cord feeding portion at 39, for example, after time T 1 elapses from the start of the operation period T 4 in all the stations, also T 2 from 1 hour elapsed time T
時間経過後にバッテリセービング中止コードＡ（第５図（Ａ））をそれぞ送信機34へ出力する。 The time course after battery saving stop code A (FIG. 5 (A)) outputted respectively to the transmitter 34. 従って、制御部 Accordingly, the control unit
38とバッテリセービング中止コード送出部39は信号送出手段を構成している。 38 and battery saving stop cord feeding portion 39 constitutes a signal transmission means.
当該中継局では、受信機７が出力するバッテリセービング中止コードＡの「SYNC」がSYNCコード検出部18において検出される。 In the relay station, "SYNC" in the battery saving stop code A receiver 7 outputs are detected in the SYNC code detection unit 18.
その結果、信号長タイマ部21が一定時間アンドゲート19 As a result, the signal length timer unit 21 is a predetermined time the AND gate 19
を導通状態にし、遅延部17が遅延出力するバッテリセービング中止コードＡが基地局へ向けて中継送出されるとともに、メモリ20がセットされ出力端Ｑの出力レベルが“1"になる。 Was in a conductive state, the battery-saving stop code A delay unit 17 is delayed output is relayed sent towards the base station, the output level of the memory 20 is set output Q becomes "1". つまり、当該中継局では、BSタイマ部15の出力レベルが“1"から“0"に変化し全局の非動作期間T 5 That is, the in the relay station, BS output level is changed from "0" to "1" inactive periods of all stations of the timer section 15 T 5
に移行しても、メモリ20の出力端Ｑの出力レベルが“1" Be shifted to the output level of the output terminal Q of the memory 20 is "1"
であるので、電源コントロールスイッチ８はその閉成動作を継続するのである。 Since it is, the power control switch 8 is to continue the closing operation. 従って、メモリ20は中継動作継続手段を構成している。 Accordingly, the memory 20 constitute a relay operation continuation means.
次いで、バッテリセービング中止コードＡを送出した子局では、引き続く全局の非動作期間T 5においてもその送受信動作を継続しており、中継動作を継続する中継局を介して送信される基地局からの制御信号を受信し、SYNC Then, the slave station that sent the battery saving stop code A, followed in the non-operation period T 5 for all stations have also continued the transmit and receive operations, from the base station to be transmitted via a relay station to continue the relay operation receiving a control signal, SYNC
コード検出部35で検出された「SYNC」が制御部38へ入力するので、制御部38では中継局が中継動作を継続していることを確認できる。 Since detected by the code detector 35 "SYNC" is inputted to the control unit 38, the relay station the controller 38 can confirm that continuing the relay operation. 従って、制御部38は確認手段の機能を有している。 Accordingly, the control unit 38 has a function of confirming means. そして、制御部38では、この確認動作後のT 3時間経過後に発呼コード送出部40へ送出指令を発する。 Then, the control unit 38 issues a transmission command to the calling code transmission section 40 after T 3 hours had passed after the checking operation.
発呼コード送出部40は発呼信号Ｂ（第５図（Ｂ））を送信機34へ送出する。 Calling code sending unit 40 sends a call signal B (FIG. 5 (B)) to the transmitter 34. 従って、制御部38、発呼コード送出部40は発呼信号送出手段を構成している。 Accordingly, the control unit 38, the calling cord feeding portion 40 constitutes a call signal sending means.
その結果、当該子局が送出した発呼信号は、全局の非動作期間T 5において基地局へ伝達され、呼接続処理が行われることになる。 As a result, the call signal child station has transmitted is transmitted to the base station in the non-operation period T 5 for all stations, so that the call connection processing is performed.
そして、当該中継局では、全局の非動作期間T 5から全局の動作期間T 4へ移行する際に、BS長タイマ部15の出力が“0"から“1"へ変化するので、この立上り変化によってメモリ20がリセットされる。 Then, in the relay station, when shifting from the non-operation period T 5 for all stations to operation period T 4 in all the stations, the output of the BS long timer unit 15 is changed from "0" to "1", the rising change memory 20 is reset by the.
ここで、注意すべき点は、バッテリセービング中止コードＡは、中継局に全局の非動作期間においてもその中継動作を継続させるためだけの信号であり、基地局に対し何らかのプロトコルを誘発するものではないということである。 Here, it should be noted that, battery saving stop code A is a signal only for even to continue the relay operation in the non-operation period of the whole station to the relay station, intended to induce some protocol to the base station is that no.
即ち、バッテリセービング中止コードＡは、信号衝突が生じ破壊されてもシステム上問題を生ずるものではなく、この信号衝突を見込んで前記T 1時間やT 2時間等の如くランダム時間後数回に亙って送信するので、高い確率で中継局を中継動作継続へ移行させ得る。 That is, the battery saving stop code A are not intended to be a signal collision is destroyed resulting produce system problems, Wataru the time T 1 and T 2 hours, etc. several times after a random time as in anticipation of this signal collision and it transmits I can to shift the relay station to relay operation continues at a high probability. また、例えばバッテリセービング中止コードＡではなく発呼信号Ｂのように基地局と子局間にプロトコルを誘発するようなものである場合、衝突のしかたによっては無駄なプロトコルを基地局は行わなければならない場合も起り得る。 When, for example, it is such as to induce a protocol between the base station and the slave station as battery saving stop code A rather calling signal B, to be made the base station unnecessary protocol by way of the collision It may not be may occur. 一方、子局は一度発呼信号Ｂを送出すると、基地局に受け付けられたか否かの応答を一定時間待った後再度送出という手順を踏むため、限られた全局の動作期間で行える呼接続の回数は少なくなる。 On the other hand, when the slave station sends a one-time call signal B, since the step on the procedure of re-transmitted after waiting whether a response has been received to the base station a certain time, the number of call connection performed in the operation period of the limited all stations less it is.
これに対し、応答を求めず一方的にバッテリセービング中止コードＡを送出して全局の非動作期間に中継局にその中継動作を継続させ、発呼信号Ｂを送出する本方式では、発呼信号送出の時間T 3の値の自由度が大きいので衝突が低減し、かつ基地局では呼接続処理を充分長い全局の非動作期間において行うので、呼接続処理の回数も多くとれる。 In contrast, in the present system sends a unilaterally battery saving stop code A without asking for a response to continue its relay operation to relay station in the non-operating period of the whole station to sends a call signal B, the calling signal since the degree of freedom of the value of the time T 3 of the delivery is large reduces the collision, and therefore the base station performs the non-operation period long enough all the stations the call connection process, take many times the call connection process.
なお、以上説明した実施例は、時分割方式の無線電話システムであるが、周波数分割方式においても同様に適用できることは勿論である。 Incidentally, the embodiment described above, when it is a radio telephone system of the division, it can of course be similarly applied in the frequency division system.
（発明の効果） 以上詳述したように、本発明の無線電話システムによれば、発呼要求のあった子局は、まず全局の動作期間において基地局が感応しない所定信号を中継局へ送出して当該中継局を引き続く全局の非動作期間において中継動作を継続させ、次いでその全局の非動作期間において発呼信号を送出するようにしたので、子局においては基地局へ向けて発する発呼の衝突が回避されるので呼接率が上昇し、また基地局においては呼接続処理を全局の非動作期間においても行うことになるので接続処理時間が平準化・短縮化されるという利点がある。 As described above in detail (Effect of the Invention), sent according to the radio telephone system of the present invention, the predetermined signal by the base station is not sensitive in the slave station, the first operation period of all the stations for which the call request to the relay station call was allowed to continue relay operation in the non-operation period of the all-station subsequent to the relay station, and then because so as to transmits a call signal in the non-operating period of the whole station, in a slave station which emits towards the base station there is an advantage that collisions because avoids the call contact ratio is increased, also in the base station connection processing time it means that also performs the non-operation period of the all-station call connection processing is leveled-shortening .

Disappointed with the 3GS and AT&T | Nick Vlku's Blog
Also, comparing the Pre’s 18 apps to the iPhone’s 50k? →
8 Responses to Disappointed with the 3GS and AT&T
Yes, it definitely seems Apple/ATT relationship is cooling.
Also, you’ve got a weird character in your last paragraph (“rumors have[something] of Apple…”)
Very weird character. Fixed.
Here’s what doesn’t make sense to me with the Pre. It’s great that notifications show up and fade away, but when I’m in the midst of a game on my iPhone, I don’t want to lose screen real estate until it fades. I want a close button.
With that in mind, I also want a reply button, since notifications sometimes *do* merit an immediate response from me. I don’t see how the Pre enables this, and Apple is smart enough to give us all a nice LARGE target for those options, even though they’re still in the way, and quite irritating.
Chris: I believe the notifications/background bar are app customizable in the Pre. So if your app can have an immediate response/feedback method, you can add a button to the bar. (Android does this too…)
And having a large popup target for a single event is awful. I’m sick of popup windows in my browser, and I’m sick of them on my phone.
Great post Nick, your observations summed up my feelings as well. There may be some backlash from consumers with this release. As you said Apple has developed a name in part for revolutionary development which is absent here. Also, for O2 to offer tethering as a standard feature while AT&T lacks the feature altogether is abhorrent. Even when tethering is release no one should be surprised if they tack it on with a $30 fee…. I still think I’ll pick up the 3GS though if I can find someone to pay for the 3G 🙂

The above link shows a video of a conceptual app management interface in iTunes – it basically solves the app problem, and all we need are apple's developers or an enterprising third-party to make this happen. Agree with Nick, come up Apple team, let's wake up.

With some trepidation, I would ask those healthcare workers who are aware of these practices which those of good conscience recognise as unacceptable to write in confidence to me at powersqc@medneg.co.uk. I will do my best to reply. If, for no other reason, copying me in (without disclosing patient identity) may offer some further protection to those who have the courage to speak out.

Bigfoot! - Page 32

I wasn't aware of such a project, hence my post. Have any results been found by this project?
The Erickson project was the project that initiated the Dr Barbeque Sauce DNA study that we have been discussing since the beginning of the thread............................................ ...................
Like I said I am talking to people who are willing to write something off before they have examined all the evidence available.
I was like you, basing my view on what I'd seen about Bigfoot in the seventies. This field is moving so fast that there will be a breakthrough, one way or another, sooner rather than later.

were you employed to dress up as a yeti or hominid perhaps. So you worked in a zoo but did not know zoology was a science. But don't let that hold you back.

I think you will find you are accusing zoologist of being confused seeing as it is they that define both humans and certain apes as hominids. Consider yourselves schooled - again.

I've seen a lot though, because I looked. Then I got drawn in, its fascinating. Whether its real or not this holds some interest. People are curious.
