A new system for the public to file complaints pertaining to police and policing can deal with systemic issues related to policy.
Gerry McNeilly, Ontario's independent police review director, said the system also aims to look at complaints on a case-by-case basis, maintain neutrality and improve communication, "because the police need the public and the public needs the police."
In 2004, the Ontario government asked Justice Patrick LeSage, former Chief Justice of the Superior Court on Ontario, to carry out an independent review of the police complaint system.
"In carrying out this research and this review, Justice LeSage found an overwhelming consensus among groups that he met that police officers were no more likely to engage in misconduct than any other professional group," McNeilly said during a conference call organized by the Ontario Community Newspaper Association. "Nevertheless he (LeSage) said concerns were raised about the legitimacy and the integrity of investigation of public complaints being carried out by the same police service as a subject of the complaint."
Until the Office of the Independent Police Review Director (PIPRD) opened on Oct. 19, 2009, public complaints pertaining to police and policing in Ontario ere handled by police service boards and police organizations contracted by municipalities, such as the O.P.P.
"It was found that a system where police investigated themselves would never satisfy the public concern that it wasn't biased in favour of the police," McNeilly explained, "but that a purely civilian system could be inefficient, bureaucratic, and would effectively remove responsibility for police managers in managing their own offices."
LeSage consulted with approximately 200 people and organizations and examined other complaint review systems across Canada and around the world. He concluded the best system would combine police involvement with independent civilian oversight and that it must become accountable, fair, efficient and transparent. He made 27 recommendations for a new independent body to administer complaints.
The Ontario government created legislation and passed the Independent Police Review Act in 2007.
The OIPRD was established as an "arm's length agency of the attorney general," said McNeilly. "It means that the agency is independent of the government, it's independent of the public, and it's independent of the police...
"We're not here to represent or advocate for the police, neither are we here to advocate or represent the public. We're a mutual body and in that sense, when we get complaints, we look at each and every complaint on a case-by-case basis as to the merits of the complaint in accordance with the legislation, and then decide what to do in accordance with the legislation."
McNeilly, a lawyer by profession, having served as a justice of the peace, deputy judge and chair of the Board of Inquiry for the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, was asked to set up a civilian agency for managing, overseeing and dealing with all public complaints regarding policing in Ontario.
He currently heads the new independent office consisting of approximately 50 staff members including an investigative team of 10 people, four of them former police officers.
"I will consult and collaborate with public and police, but will always act independently," McNeilly said.
With the complaint system now fully implemented, the process is running effectively and efficiently, he believes.
There are approximately 27,000 sworn police officers across the province. The office has received approximately 1100 complaints since opening last October. Many have been conduct-specific involving perceived incivility during highway traffic stops and interactions, McNeilly said. "How people are being treated and spoken to."
According to Rosemary Parker, a communications consultant for the OIPRD, 210 complaints have been from the Central West Region. Of those, there have been 153 conduct complaints, three service complaints and two complaints about police policy. There was only one complaint regarding the Haldimand County OPP that was screened out and closed for reasons set out by the Police Services Act.
"As of October 19 (2009) we could only deal with matters that occurred October 19 or forward, nothing in the past," McNeilly explained.
The OIPRD does not deal with complaints about aboriginal police forces, but anyone from across Ontario can lodge a complaint within six months of an incident. The office will get back to the complainant within two days of receiving a complaint and will determine whether it warrants an investigation within two weeks.
"We treat all complaints the same. We look at a complaint and we do not try to figure out if the person is an aboriginal or not," McNeilly said. "We simply look at the complaint, we look to see if there is merit in the complaint, if it falls within the legislation and we process it in the same way...
"I do have a role to deal with systemic issues," he added. "If a systemic issue shows up and we have a complaint or series of complaints from a particular area that raises some concerns, I have the ability to review that and to investigate that."
McNeilly concluded that part of his role is "to enhance the trust and confidence in policing."

Up-cycled bags for eco-crusaders
By Maren Tarro
When Patio Screendoor (not the name his mama gave him) forgot to bring his reusable grocery bags to the market, he figured he'd simply pick one up along with his groceries. The store's options—either too expensive or cheaply made—weren't thrilling. "I had already replaced a few flimsy bags at this point and was determined not to own another crappy bag," says Screendoor.

Diane Kruger
Instead of sweeping her hair straight back, last year Diane Kruger wore this beautifully understated side-parted updo. Even her eye makeup coordinated with her hair, creating a look that was mild without sacrificing impact. Best of all, if you can braid and you have a little patience, you can get her look on your own.

"She's four months along now."
Doogie was standing outside their bedroom door, listening. It was midnight by the time Dad came home, and Mom was already in bed.
"I wish we would have known sooner. Why didn't she say anything? How could I have not known?"
"Well, menstral cycles at her age are irregular-
"I'm talking about the rape, David! My god, my baby! How could I not know? A mother is supposed to know these things!" She started sobbing. "And I had no idea! I knew something was wrong, but-"
"At this stage, I can't say I feel comfortable with her having an abortion."
"And I'm not comfortable with her carrying a baby inside her! At her age? David, think what that could do to her!"
"She's always been small for her age," he agreed."We'll have a cesarean done," he added.
Doogie's eyes widened and he shook his head. Bad idea, Dad. You know that's a bad idea! A vaginal delivery is much safer.
"You're right, that's exactly right. I won't have her going through labor! No. No. I won't have her suffer any more than she already has." She's not keeping the baby either," she insisted.
"No, no of course not- I wouldn't dream of it."
Doogie walked in then. They were both sitting up in bed and only blinked when he entered.
"Dad, a cesearean is dangerous. And Mom, this is her baby- her body, we can't say what to do."
"The hell we can't, Douglas," Dad answered. "The hell we can't. The very thought. We are the parents, she is a minor. End of discussion."
"What if she wants to keep the baby?"
Mrs. Howser made a scoffing sound in her throat. "Doogie, your sister isn't stupid, she knows raising a baby is nothing like having a doll. And besides, why would she want a daily reminder for the rest of her life of the atrocity that happened to her? It's bad enough just to be pregnant!" She shook her head. "I won't have it, Doogie. I simply won't have it."
"But, Mom-"
"And going through labor and birth? Pardon me, Doogie, but you can have no idea what that is like. Over my dead body will she go through such an experience."
Her voice was shrill. "Douglas, you don't have a daughter, you don't know what it's like to be a parent."
He opened his mouth to say more, but realizing the futility of it, he closed it, and without another word left the room, closing the door behind him.
"You don't know what it's like to be a parent? Howser, what did you do?"
"Vinnie!" He hissed, not wanting to wake his sister, who was probably the only one able to sleep. Vinnie was sitting on his desk, apparently having waited for him to enter his room. "It's late, what are you doing here?" He stumbled over a book on the floor as he closed the door behind him.
"I've known for two days that something was up. First, no one took your sister to school this morning. Second, you left for work late. Third, your dad left for work and wasn't even heading in the right direction!"
"It's nothing, Vinnie." He didn't even bother asking how his friend knew all this.
Vinnie made a face. No, no," he shook his head with certainty. "Your father came home at an odd hour. You came home at an odd hour. Jack McGuire came to your house for dinner, and did not look happy about it. Doogie Howser, no one comes to your house for dinner looking unhappy the way your mom cooks." He hopped down from the desk. "No, no," he repeated, "there's something up in the Howser household." He looked at his friend seriously. "What is it?"
When Doogie didn't answer, Vinnie paced the floor and asked another question. "It has something to do with that stuff we found in your sister's room, doesn't it?"
The stuff in question had disappeared.
He still didn't answer.
"Your dad left the house after dinner, and drove around aimlessly for hours!"
"How do you know that?"
"He circled the house three times- how much more aimless does it get?"
Doog, come on, give. I wanna help ya here, but I can't if you don't tell me."
"It's a family matter," he answered reluctantly.
"I know that!" Vinnie slapped a hand to his forehead.
Doogie sighed. "It's private," he muttered, wishing it weren't private at all. Wishing it was all a dream, or nightmare instead.
"I'm your best friend, Doog- it doesn't get more private than that!"
He couldn't even meet his gaze anymore, and feeling suddenly drained, he sat down on the bed.
"It's bad, Vin." His voice was almost a whisper.
It's about Kid Howser, ain't it?" He grinned. Then he glanced at Doogie and his wise-cracking attitude vanished. "What is it? Does she got leukemia too? Is that what it is, she's got it?"
He looked him then. Vinnie was actually sweating, biting his lips in concern.
"No, it's nothing like that."
Vinnie smiled and slapped Doogie on the back in relief. "Well, then it ain't that bad! What, did she get suspended again? Expelled? My mom heard her cryin' up in her room this afternoon, and said somethin' was going on. See, you can't keep it from us Delpinos," he tapped the side of his head, "we know things."
He sighed again.
"Doog, what is it? You can tell me."
"It's about Jane."
Jane was his favorite, not Doogie. Vinnie would never admit it, but he loved hanging out with the non-child prodigy of the family. He and Jane were alike in their big mouths and their mischevious ways. The two truly were kindred spirits, and Doogie swore up till now he'd kill Vinnie if he ever thought of Jane otherwise, in his typical horn dog manner- no matter how old Jane got.
He shook his head.
"You're not gonna want to hear this."
"I already know it's bad, and I do wanna hear it," he insisted.
"I mean you're really not gonna want to hear it. When I tell you, you'll want to punch me in the gut- or elsewhere."
"That bad, huh?"
"I can take it, whatever it is!" He bit his lower lip with his upper teeth and looked at Doogie earnestly.
"Okay." He sighed, willing himself to be as detached as possible.
"Remember that time Jane skipped school?"
"Yeah," Vinnie's tone encouraged more information.
"Well, she didn't skip school."
This was where Vinnie was supposed to jump in and ask the obvious, "Well, what did she do 'den?" But he didn't. He waited.
Doogie blew his breath out through half puckered lips.
"Doog, come on, I'm dyin' here."
When he sighed again, involuntarily, Vinnie began shaking his head, "You keep doin' dat." He shook his head again, and sighed aloud as well.
"Vinnie, she was, she got"
He ran a hand through his hair. This was even worse than telling Mom and Dad!
Finally, he forced the words out in one sentence just as he had earlier.
"Jane was raped."
Vinnie's mouth dropped open. "She wha-?" In the next instant his demeanor changed. He began jumping up and down with energy, punching violently at the air. "I'll kill 'im! I'll kill 'im!" He screamed. His body showed the tenacity he'd willingly attacked Tank with, when defending his best friend. But his eyes shown black with a true intent to kill.
"I'll kill the bastard! Where is he? Lemme at 'im!" He screamed, tears threatening to stream down his cheeks. "Let me at 'im!"
"Vinnie, that's not all." The calmness in his voice amazed him. He was still sitting on the bed, now simply staring at the wall in front of him. Better get this over with too, he thought.
"She's pregnant. That 'bastard' got her pregnant."
His anger vanished, and the energy left his body. Like a deflated balloon, Vinnie sank down in Doogie's desk chair.
And that's as far as he got. His canieving, frank Italian face crumpled in misery. The next second, he shoved a fist to his mouth and sobbed. He cried in such a way as Doogie had never seen. It was worse than a death or a funeral. He cried as if his very soul had been ripped out, and he sobbed openly,passionately- unashamed.
"The kid," he managed as he choked in a breath, "my god, the kid."
Doogie moved to comfort his friend, but Vinnie shook his head, stiffening his body with a disgusted look in his eye. Before he could wonder why Vinnie was disgusted with him, Vincent Delpino was on his feet storming courageously toward "Kid Howser's" room.
"Vinnie, I don't think that's a good idea. She doesn't want anyone to see her right now!" He hissed the words, and he still assumed the rest of the house was asleep.
Vinnie shook his head hard. "Nah, no way. No way, Howser. I know what's best for her." He stopped then and poked a finger roughly to his chest. "I know!" He insisted. Clearly the implication was that he, as Jane's brother, did not. Nor did the rest of the family- and that was what truly disgusted Vinnie. He knew that she had not been given the kind of comfort that she needed.
Then he opened her door. Jane was huddled in the corner by the window, wrapped in a blanket. She was wide awake.
When Vinnie saw her his face crumpled again, and he ran to her on the floor, sobbing anew.
"I'm sorry!" He cried, clinging to her, his face buried in her small shoulder. "I'm sorry!"
Jane held herself as stiffly as she had that morning, her mouth a pinched line.
Vinnie continued to cry unabashedly, sobbing. "I'll get him for ya! I'll kill him! I'll kill tha son of a bitch!"
"I"ll get him!" He sobbed, and took a loud breath in. "I'll get him!" He promised, his dark eyes locking eagerly onto her light eyes. But while Vinnie Delpinos eyes shown with emotion, Jane's were void of any emotion at all.
Doogie could tell she was still fighting, still trying to deny everything. But the one thing she couldn't deny broke her down first. Finally, she clung back to Vinnie, instead of the other way around. "I tried- I tried to," she inhaled, "I tried, Vinnie! I tried!"
She meant the attacker. She'd tried to fight him, to get away, and had failed.
"I know," his voice still as full of tears and sad as Jane's. "I know." He kissed the top of her head. He was fighting to be able to maintain enough control to speak. "It's not your fault!" The last word came out as a sob, as Vinnie lost it again, and began to cry. Shortly she composed herself, and sat patiently waiting for Vinnie to do the same. When he did, she announced,
"I'm not, Vinnie. I'm sick. I'm just real sick." She nodded, confirming it to herself.
Vinnie raised his head and bit his lip. Then to Doogie's shock, he put his hand to her lower abdomen feeling, Doogie knew, its rigidness. "Nah," he announced sadly, "Nah." Another sob escaped. He shook his head at her, tears streaming down his face. "You're not. You are."
Doogie realized then that she and Vinnie hardly ever spoke in complete sentences to one another. They didn't need to. They really were that close, and that alike.
Their comradery broke then. Jane pushed him away. "No! I'm sick!" She insisted.
He said nothing.
Apparently angered by his refusal to agree, she screamed again. "No!"
No response.
Her lower lip puckered, she was breathing more heavily her eyes glowing with water.
"No!" She screamed louder this time.
Vinnie just sat there, on his knees in front of her huddled form.
Doogie felt Dad's shoulder brush his arm. He looked over to the open doorway and saw both he and mom standing in the frame. He knew they'd been there for a long time.
Jane looked up then, and she was nothing but a ball of fury.
"Tell him!" She screamed at Dr. Howser. She gasped for breath. "Tell him!"
She can't even say the word, he realized.
"I'm not, I'm not!" She insisted. "Tell him I'm not!" It was like a child crying for a toy in tone , but not volume. If she'd ever cried that loudly for anything, it would have been the last sound she ever made. The problem was Jane wasn't crying for her father to give her a toy that she wanted. She was crying for him to take away the truth. "Tell him now!" She begged. "Right now!"
Dad said nothing. He just stood there, staring back at her as Vinnie had done.
When he wouldn't step in, she took matters into her own hands. She began beating Vinnie with her tiny fists. And what's more, not only did he let her, he moved closer to her so that she could happily connect with a target. "I'm not, I'm not, I'm not!" She insisted over and over, punching him with vigor. Vinnie had tears running down his face, but he made no sound. Her eyes were shut tight, and it wasn't Vinnie she was punching. Slowly the force and speed of the punches began to demish.
"I'm not," she said again, but she'd lost her previous vigor, the adrenaline leaving her.
She was gasping for breath, her shoulders heaving.
A glass of water appeared out of nowhere. Doogie grabbed it and passed it to Vinnie. He held it to Jane's lips so that she could drink. She swallowed, let out a shaky sigh and leaned against Vinnie like a broken doll.
The room was silent for a long time. Doogie thought Jane was finally falling asleep, and turned to go back to his room when she called out.
"Daddy?" She asked, her voice tiny.
Jane hadn't called Dad Daddy since she could probably remember. Doogie did though. She stopped calling him Daddy when she turned three. She thought it was more grown up to call him Dad. Or rather, she called him, "Da". She had difficulty with the second 'd'. It wasn't until they'd gone to see the movie Bambi, that she found a way to fix this problem. Apparently she had become fixated with Bambi's pronunciation of the word bird.
She came home and hopped around the living room yelling, "Bir-duh! Bir-duh! Bir-duh!" It was hysterical to her. She laughed and laughed after saying the word, and would begin all over again, hopping around and squealing. Mom smiled her approval and watched for a while, before leaving for the kitchen to make dinner. That left Doogie and Dad sitting on the couch, occasionally moving their legs in as Jane jumped past them. Finally Dad got so fed up that he folded his newspaper and went upstairs.
Jane watched him leave, mouth agape. Then her eyes lit up as a new idea came to her. She giggled and tried, "Da-duh!" instead. It worked. A smile lit her face and she crowed with happiness. "Da-duh! Da-duh!" Then she giggled, then with an exhausted exhale sank down to the floor and said in a normal tone, "Dad."
When Dad cleared his throat, Doogie was jerked back to the present.
"Yes, sweetheart?"
"Daddy, I'm not, am I?" She looked at him earnestly now, hopefully- desperately. "Not really?"
He heard Mom cry out, and as he looked she began to sob, her face buried in Dad's chest. Without taking his eyes off Jane, he answered in a tone Doogie hadn't heard him use towards her since she'd stopped calling him Daddy. He said,
"Yes, sweetie, you are. Honey, you're pregnant. You're going to have a baby."
Mom began crying louder, but Doogie was watching his sister.
Her lower lip puckered, and lips truly looked like an upside down smile, her eyes were huge. For a brief second he recognized the look as the one she gave just before she was about to tell on him and scream to-
Vinnie darted into the shadows as Kid Howser began the high-carrying cry of a frightened and dangerously injured child.
Katherine ran to her, saying nothing, simply holding her sobbing daughter tightly and rocking her, while sobbing freely herself.
He knew their job was done and their presense now was unnecessary. He turned after Dad to leave, and Vinnie followed wordlessly, his face still red and tear streaked, his shirt crumpled where fists had hit.

The Mississippi State Bulldogs are one of only eight teams to have advanced all the way to the 2013 College World Series.
The school's dreaded rivals, the Ole Miss Rebels, did not. But that doesn't mean the Rebels aren't shining in Omaha in some form.
Either Ole Miss has someone "on the inside" who is trolling the Dawgs hard, or someone is about to get fired for the biggest error of the CWS thus far.
This commemorative t-shirt reads "Mississippi State Rebels."
Nope, that is not right at all.
This is how all of Bulldogs Nation is feeling right now…

The invention described and claimed hereinbelow is also described in German Patent Application DE 10 2008 026 452.0 filed on Jun. 3, 2008. This German Patent Application, whose subject matter is incorporated here by reference, provides the basis for a claim of priority of invention under 35 U.S.C. 119(a)-(d).
The present invention relates to a communication system for exchanging data between data recipients and data generators.
Today, vehicles such as agricultural working machines include a large number of electronic monitoring devices which exchange data via an internal bus system, or which exchange data with external communication devices via this bus system. Among many other things, an essential purpose of this data exchange is to monitor and control the mode of operation of the particular vehicle and its working units, and to ensure that highly diverse monitoring functions are performed properly. In the agricultural application, particular significance is attributed to ensuring that the settings for the operating parameters of the working units of an agricultural working machine are optimal, and, in particular, to monitoring the service life of components of the vehicle.
Depending on the configuration of the data generation and transmission systems, sensor systems internal to the machine detect operating states of the vehicle and its working units. These operating states are compared in internal or external data processing devices with characteristic curves and/or defined operating states which are stored therein; results data are generated which are then used to optimize various parameters of the vehicle and its working units. In this context it is also known to monitor the service life of certain working units and their components using internal or external diagnostic systems, and, depending on the structure of the diagnostic system, to identify any disturbances that occurred and identify their causes, or to diagnose information about the remaining services lives of components.
The numerous monitoring and control functions described above are typically carried out by control devices which, depending on the design stage and development status, include software modules which must be updated regularly. With regard for adjusting operating parameters in a manner that is controlled via characteristic curves, this regular updating is carried out because the particular control devices must be reprogrammed depending on crop material parameters and efficiency characteristic values of the agricultural working machine; in the simplest case, the reprogramming includes selecting a characteristic curve which is stored in a data processing device, and which then adapts the functionality of the particular control device to the new basic conditions. In every case, it is necessary for the data exchange to take place between the appropriate control devices and data processing devices, and in the correct direction.
From the prior art, e.g. DE 198 49 810, it is known that flash memories for programming control devices are designed in such a manner that user access rights and serial numbers of control devices are stored in them. If a user wants to reprogram certain control devices, he must identify the particular control device by entering and verifying the access right and the serial number. Given that safety considerations are paramount in communications of this type, a specific communication route is determined by explicitly entering identification data and comparing it with identification data that are stored in the flash memory; via this communication route and in a next step, communication takes place between a control device and a data processing device which is designed, e.g. as a diagnostic device. Communication systems designed in this manner have the disadvantage in particular that an individual, e.g. the operator of the diagnostic device, must always first enter data in a communication medium, based on which communication may then take place. This slows the communication process, binds it to a certain communication medium, and makes it complex and expensive since it requires operator intervention.
DE 195 41 816 makes known a further communication system with which a diagnostic device may communicate with the control device of a vehicle. To ensure that the control device may communicate with the control devices of various vehicle types or models of a vehicle type, the diagnostic device is designed such that it may change its identity using software which is stored on a memory cassette, in a manner such that it may communicate with highly diverse types of control devices. Systems of this type have the disadvantage, however, that the particular application—in this case, the diagnostic device that is adapted specifically to the particular vehicle type and its control devices using software—must include very specific information about the control device to be diagnosed, the data communication route, and the type of communication medium. As a result, the use of the diagnostic system becomes that much more inflexible the fewer the number of vehicle-specific software packages is that are stored on the memory cassette. In addition, increasing the number of vehicle-specific data packets that are stored on the memory cassette increases the costs of the memory cassette considerably.
The object of the present invention, therefore, is to avoid the disadvantages of the related art described above and, in particular, to provide a communication system with which the communication routes and the size of the data records to be transmitted are optimized, thereby resulting in a communication system having universal applicability, and that is cost-effective and operates efficiently.
In keeping with these objects and with others which will become apparent hereinafter, one feature of the present invention resides, briefly stated, in a communication system for exchanging data between data recipients and data generators, comprising a communication network via which a data exchange takes place between stationary and/or mobile units and/or within a stationary or mobile unit, said communication network connecting various communication media to one another; at least one communication manager assigned to said communication network, and identifying a communication route of a data record between a particular data generator and an associated data recipient independently of a communication medium.
Given that, in the case of the communication system for exchanging data between data recipients and data generators, the communication network that enables the data exchange connects data transmission paths of various communication media to one another—at least one communication manager being assigned to the communication network, and the at least one communication manager identifying the communication route of a data record between the particular data generator and the associated data recipient independently of the communication medium—it is ensured that the communication routes and the size of the data records to be transmitted are optimized, thereby resulting in a communication system having universal applicability, and that is cost-effective and operates efficiently.
In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the data record(s) contain(s) information about the data generator, the data recipient, and the communication medium, and the information is readable by the communication manager; the communication manager transmits the data record to the correct data recipient and in the associated communication medium based on the information that was identified by the data generator. In this manner, it is ensured that the individual data record does not need to contain any information about the actual communication route, thereby reducing the quantity of data to be transmitted in the communication network; when the hardware configuration of the communication network is the same, this results in rapid transmission of the data records.
Given that the data generator becomes the data recipient, and that the data recipient becomes the data generator on the communication route of the particular data record, it is also ensured that the data transmission architecture is transparent, thereby also ensuring that the data exchange will be more efficient.
In an advantageous development of the present invention
In an advantageous development of the present invention, the communication manager is assigned to a mobile unit designed as an agricultural working machine, the mobile unit including a CAN bus system; the communication manager controls the data exchange between data generators and data recipients within the CAN bus system, and between the CAN bus system and external data generators and data recipients. In this manner, it is ensured with regard for communication that takes place internal to or external to the machine that the data records to be exchanged do not need to contain information about the particular communication route, the communication medium, or the particular communication platform.
In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the data generators and data recipients that are assigned to the agricultural working machine and that are integrated in their CAN bus system are formed by control devices and/or at least one control and input device and/or at least one diagnostic system, and wherein it is possible to integrate external data generators and data recipients, preferably external diagnostic systems, in the CAN bus system. This has the advantage that the communication network may be used in a highly flexible manner, and it is not bound to certain agricultural working machines, their control devices, or to certain diagnostic systems.
Given that, in an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the "requests" data record and the "response" data record in the communication network may travel along external communication routes and/or internal communication routes, that the internal communication routes include the communication routes within the control device, and that the external communication routes include the communication routes outside of this control device, it is ensured that the communication network according to the present invention may respond to data requests that are internal or external to the machine.
Depending on the complexity of the request, the communication system according to the present invention may be designed such that the "requests" data record is transmitted via the communication manager to one or more data recipients, and that the one or more data recipients generate(s) a "response" data record. In this manner, it is possible to create and exchange highly complex information in the communication network. In this context, it is also advantageous when the several data recipients that generate a "response" data record may be reached via a combination of internal and external communication routes, so that, e.g. information from a plurality of control devices may be combined into one single "response" data record, rather than existing as separate "response" data records.
In order to easily realize the data exchange according to the present invention in addition to the bus system-based control of a control device to implement its original control and regulating function, it is provided in an advantageous embodiment of the present invention that the at least one control device includes a software and hardware module which is directly connected to the CAN bus system via a first communication interface, and the control device includes at least one further communication interface that includes a communication manager, which makes it possible for data to be exchanged between the CAN bus system and a software module of the software and hardware module of the control device in a protocol standard, e.g. the keyword protocol standard, as the bypass of the first communication interface.
In a further advantageous embodiment of the present invention the software and hardware module of the control device includes an electronic control unit and/or an on-board diagnostics and calibration module and/or a teleservice module, wherein the communication manager enables the data exchange between them via internal communication routes and between these devices and further control devices and diagnostic modules on external communication routes. This communication architecture also results in an efficient exchange of data records in the communication system.
Furthermore, given that control and regulating characteristic curves for the particular control device are stored in an editable manner in the electronic control unit, and that malfunction information that relates to the control device may be called up from the electronic control unit, and that by using the on-board diagnostic and calibration module it is possible to request the malfunction information, to calibrate the control devices, and to change the control and regulating characteristic curves which are stored in the electronic control unit, and that data from one or more control devices may be requested periodically via the teleservice module, and that the request is carried out automatically by the teleservice module, the communication system according to the present invention is designed such that it may realize nearly any essential application of the data exchange between various units that are integrated in a bus system.
Further advantageous embodiments are the subject of further dependent claims and are described below with reference to exemplary embodiments shown in a plurality of figures.
Agricultural working machine 1 which is designed as a combine harvester 2 and is depicted schematically in
An agricultural working machine 1 that differs from combine harvester 2 depicted here may be any type of agricultural working machine, such as a forage harvester, tractors with attachments, hauling vehicles and the like; it includes a driver's cab 21 in which at least one control and regulating device 23 which includes a display device 22 is located, using which a large number of processes to be described in greater detail may be controlled, the processes being initiated automatically or by operator 24 of agricultural working machine 1. Control and regulating device 23 communicates via a bus system 25 with sensor systems 26 which will be described in greater detail.
For clarity,
In a manner according to the present invention, software module 36 of software and hardware module 33 includes a software-based and/or hardware-based communication interface 37 which makes it possible via a standardized protocol, e.g. a keyword protocol standard, for software and hardware module 33 to communicate with CAN bus system 25 of agricultural working machine 1 in the manner of a bypass. A communication manager 38 which will be described in greater detail below, and which is used to optimize the data transmission between CAN bus system 25 and software and hardware module 33 of control device 31 is integrated in communication interface 37.
Every control device 31 also includes a further hardware- or software-based communication interface 40 via which particular software and hardware module 33 may communicate directly, i.e exchange data, with CAN bus system 25 via particular line system 32 or wirelessly, thereby bypassing communication interface 37 which includes communication manager 38. In addition, control and regulating device 23 which is assigned to agricultural working machine 1 and includes display device 22 is integrated in CAN bus system 25 of agricultural working machine 1 via a line system 32 or in a wireless manner. While control and regulating device 23 and various control devices 31 are situated inside the machine, it is also possible for external data processing device 41, preferably diagnostic systems 46 known per se, to be integrated in CAN bus system 25 of agricultural working machine 1, usually via wireless data transmission routes 32.
In this manner, a communication system 42 is obtained in which data may be exchanged between internal control devices 31 and control and regulating device 23, and/or between these devices and one or more external data processing devices 41. Regarding control devices 31, the communication and the related data exchange may take place directly between CAN bus system 25 and particular software and hardware module 33 via an appropriate communication interface 40. This communication route is typically used when data generated by the internal sensors should be transmitted to external systems, or when various working units 20 of agricultural working machine 1 should be operated according to control characteristic curves which are stored in control devices 31 and/or control and regulating device 23. In a manner according to the present invention, the data exchange between software and hardware modules 33 of control devices 31, control and regulating device 23, and one or more external data processing devices 41 may also take place via CAN bus system 25 and particular communication interface 37—which includes a communication manager 38—of control devices 31.
The communication route according to the present invention which includes communication manager 38 is typically used when a new version of control software, i.e. an update, for particular control device 31 should be transmitted to one or more control devices 31. In this case, the communication typically takes place between external data processing devices 41 and control devices 31 which are integrated in CAN bus system 25, and/or control and regulating device 23. A further essential field of application is the calibration of certain sensor systems 26 of agricultural working machine 1. In these cases, characteristic curves are defined based on detected parameters, which then describe the control function of a certain control device 31 or several control devices 31; in a preferred embodiment, the characteristic curves are stored directly in software and hardware modules 33 of control devices 31. A further application is the diagnosis of particular control device 31 itself, or the diagnosis of actuators 43 of working units 20, which are controlled by particular control device 31, and the diagnosis of assigned sensor systems 26, it being possible to use internal and/or external diagnostic systems 46 in this case. In this manner, a diagnostic function is provided that detects disturbances, malfunctions, and failures of working units 2 or the point in time when working units 20 are likely to fail.
Communication manager 38 includes a software module 52 which is designed such that communication manager 38 may identify, based on "requests" data record 51 that was received, data generator 50 of "requests" data record 51, associated data recipient 53, and the particular communication medium. Based on this information, communication manager 38 automatically defines further communication route 54 to one or more internal and/or external network nodes 55, which will be described in greater detail, and which are also used to access one or more data recipients 53 according to the present invention. In this manner, it is made possible that "requests" data record 51 need not contain information about communication route 54 in bus system 25, thereby ensuring that particular data generator 50 must not have special knowledge of particular agricultural working machine 1 and bus system 25 assigned thereto; this results in smaller quantities of data to be transmitted, and in a more universal use of data generators 50.
In a subsequent communication step, particular data recipient 53 of "requests" data record 51 generates "response" data record 56; depending on the type of communication route 44, 45 of data generator 50 and the contents of "requests" data record 51, data recipient 53 is controlled on an internal or external communication route 44, 45, and it may be control devices 31, control and regulating device 23, and/or one or more external data processing devices 41. Once "response" data record 56 has been generated by data recipient 53, it functions as a data generator 57 and transmits "response" data record 56 via CAN bus system 25 and particular communication interface 37 to communication manager 38 according to the present invention. Its software module 52 now identifies data recipient 58 based on "response" data record 56, which is now original data generator 50 of "requests" data record 51. It is precisely data generator 50—e.g. external data processing device 41, a control device 31, or control and regulating device 23—which previously generated "requests" data record 51 that receives "response" data record 56.
In analogy to the transmission of "requests" data record 51, communication manager 38 also automatically defines—based on the information taken from "response" data record 56—the communication medium and communication route 54 from new data generator 57 to related data recipient 58 without particular "response" data record 56 including special information about the communication medium and the communication route to particular data recipient 58 which is original data generator 50. In this manner, the size of "response" data record 56 is kept small, thereby ensuring that data are transmitted rapidly.
Data generators 50 that define "requests" data record 51, and that, as data recipients 58, receive "response" data record 56, and data recipients 53 that receive "requests" data record 51 and, as data generators 57, also generate "response" data record 56, may be assigned internally and/or externally, as data processing devices 65, 66, to a mobile or stationary unit. An example of a mobile unit in this case is agricultural working machine 1 which is designed as combine harvester 2, or a mobile diagnostic system 46, while the stationary unit may be designed, e.g. as a centrally acting remote-diagnostic system 46. In the embodiment described here, data processing devices 65, 66 are control devices 31 and/or control and regulating device 23, and/or external data processing devices 41. Depending on "who" functions as data generator 50, 57, and "who" functions as data recipient 53, 58, various data processing devices 65, 66 are assigned internally or externally to the mobile or stationary device.
Teleservice module 69 also generates a "requests" data record 51 which includes data to be requested periodically, such as fuel consumption, engine capacity utilization, etc., wherein "requests" data record 51 is generated automatically by teleservice module 69 without any direct involvement by operator 24 of agricultural working machine 1. Given that "requests" data records 51 may only be generated via on-board diagnostic and calibration module 68 and teleservice module 69 of a control device 31, modules 68, 69 form the "protocol master", P master 70. Control unit 67—which generates "response" data record 56 according to the present invention—of a control device then forms "protocol slave", P slave 71. For simplicity, further control devices 31 are depicted symbolically in
In the manner according to the present invention, every control device 31 includes a communication manager 38 which controls the data exchange within a control device 31 on internal communication routes 44 and/or outside of a control device 31 on external communication routes 45 between control devices 31, 31 a and various diagnostic systems 46 a, 46 b. As described above, communication interface 37, which includes communication manager 38, communicates according to a defined protocol, e.g. the keyword protocol. In addition, in a manner known per se, every control device includes a CAN bus driver 72 which enables communication by particular control device 31 with internal CAN bus system 25. Of the large number of possible examples of communication, the essential ones will be described below, as examples.
If the communication takes place between control devices 31, 31 a and external diagnostic systems 46 a, b, then external diagnostic systems 46 a, b generate "requests" data records 51 which may include new software packages to be installed in order to adapt the control characteristic curves to individual control devices 31, and the error information query. "Requirements" data records 51 are transmitted via internal bus system 25 to control device(s) 31, 31 a. In particular control device 31, communication manager 38 accepts "requests" data record 51, identifies—independently of the particular communication medium, e.g. data lines, telephone connection, radio—data generator 50 which is particular diagnostic system 46 a, b in this case, and data recipient 53 which is electronic control unit 67 of particular control device 31 in this case. "Response" data record 56 is then generated in particular control device 31, 31 a, which includes the requested error information or a confirmation that the software installation was successful. "Response" data record 56 is then transmitted via particular communication manager 38 to appropriate diagnostic system 46 a, b. When "response" data record 56 is transmitted, former data generator 50 becomes data recipient 58, and former data recipient 53 becomes data generator 57.
A further application is illustrated in
It is within the scope of the present invention for a display device (not depicted) to be assigned directly to a control device 31, thereby also enabling "response" data record 56 to be visualized directly in a control device 31. If on-board diagnostic and calibration module 68 should be used only to calibrate control devices 31, the communication may be structured such that "requests" data record 51 is transmitted by on-board diagnostic and calibration module 68 of a control device 31 to its communication manager 38, and further communication takes place exclusively via external communication routes 45 using on-board diagnostic and calibration modules 68 of further control devices 31 a. An application of this type always results when the change or adaptation made to the control characteristic curves of a control device 31 affect the control characteristic curves of further control devices 31 a.
A further application is the communication between teleservice module 69 and on-board diagnostic and calibration module 68 of the same control device 31 or on-board diagnostic and calibration modules 68 of further control devices 31 a. This communication also takes place, as described above, when data that must be requested periodically or sporadically, such as fuel consumption or engine capacity utilization, must be obtained.
It will be understood that each of the elements described above, or two or more together, may also find a useful application in other types of constructions differing from the types described above.
While the invention has been illustrated and described as embodied in a communication system for exchanging data, it is not intended to be limited to the details shown, since various modifications and structural changes may be made without departing in any way from the spirit of the present invention.
Without further analysis, the foregoing will so fully reveal the gist of the present invention that others can, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt it for various applications without omitting features that, from the standpoint of prior art, fairly constitute essential characteristics of the generic or specific aspects of this invention.
What is claimed as new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims.

Author has written 1 story for Harry Potter.
I think all Harry Potter fans should check out the Harry Potter Alliance if they haven't done so already...
I exist, so that's nice. I had sort of fallen off the face of the earth, but I think I'll start writing again.
I haven't written fanfiction in... oh maybe five years? maybe more? So this is novel. I'm most likely to write for Harry Potter although I've been known to take an interest in other things. Right now I'm only working on Divide and Devour and I don't know where it's going; I never map anything out beforehand. I do everything in this gloriously half-arsed way. I hope you don't mind.
Other things I like include but are not limited to: the Outlander series, Lord of the Rings, His Dark Materials, the Abhorsen trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean (mainly for Geoffrey Rush although they are good fun otherwise), Phantom of the Opera, Jane Eyre, and most everything by Evelyn Waugh (none of which lends itself to fanfiction, but nevertheless).
Oh, and I abuse perfectly nice punctuation marks like the comma even though they've never done anything to me, personally. I'm sorry about that.

Motorist Susan Franks said she was shocked when police told her the crooks who broke into her BMW saloon had used a sophisticated "grabbing" device to exploit its keyless entry system.
The bug is believed to have been hidden in bushes near her Finchley home so it could "listen" to signals sent from her key fob to the car and record the unique code.
When the thieves returned, it is thought all they had to do to open the doors was replay the cloned signal. Mrs Franks, 50, who had installed a security camera at her house a week earlier after attempted thefts, said: "When I replayed the CCTV I saw these young men in baseball caps just walk up and open the doors without any effort and start rifling through my things. Apparently it's happening all the time. My neighbours had the same thing happen twice.
"These people can come and get in my car and even drive it away any time they like."
The actress said a BMW garage told her there was nothing they could do to stop such cloning - and quoted her £81 plus VAT to change the key codes. "What's the point? They will just come back and clone it again. The manufacturers need to say what they will do to stop it." Police are investigating.
"Effortless": the thieves are filmed opening the car doors

This was a great find! I needed something for an adirondack chair and wanted the lime green color specifically. First of all, it is hard to even find the adirondack cushions period. Then if you can find something the color/pattern choices are limited and the cost is quite high. These cushions fit the bill perfectly and so far....since I keep them outside... have not faded in the sun or stained in the rain.Pros Durable, Vibrant Color, High Quality of Material, Comfortable, Looks Great, Looks High End, perfect fit, perfect color match from website

Down Home With The Neelys: A Southern Family Cookbook
by Pat Neely, Gina Neely and Paula Disbrowe

List Price: $28.95 (store prices may vary)
Format: Hardcover

Parent Company: Bertelsmann and Pearson PLC
Read Knopf's description of Down Home With The Neelys: A Southern Family Cookbook
Book Reviewed by Kam Williams
'Hey, everyone, first of all, I want to thank you for reading our book and watching our show. We had no idea what we were getting into when we let television cameras into our house, but'you know what?'it's been fun. The show has allowed us to share our recipes with a lot of people, many of whom now come and visit us at the restaurants. It's also allowed us to tell some of our story.
We decide to put it all down on paper because folks kept asking. They'd send us letters, asking for our recipes. They'd send us e-mails, asking how we met. So we figured, give the public what they want. And that's pretty much how this book was born.'
'Gina Neely in the Introduction (page 3)
It's impossible to say what's more appealing about this opus, the authors' sweet love story, or their succulent recipes for barbecued food and all the fixins. The back story is that Patrick and Gina Neely had been high school sweethearts, but didn't actually marry until after reuniting in their native Memphis after attending different colleges out of town.
Today, the blissful couple has not only been blessed with two beautiful daughters, Spenser and Shelbi, but they also own one of the most successful barbecue restaurant chains in the country, Neely's Bar-B-Que, with locations in both Memphis and Nashville. In 2008, they started co-hosting their own cooking show on the Food Network, 'Down Home with the Neelys,' and in response to the series' popularity they decided to share their trade secrets in this practical cookbook of the same name which arrives attractively illustrated with 75 mouth-watering photographs.
Here's one thing I noticed right off the bat about these recipes: they tend to go heavy on bacon fat and butter. No wonder the food tastes so delicious. So, do me a favor and just don't go overboard and rely on this tasty tome 24-7 or your arteries are likely to be clogged in a week.
That disclaimer out of the way, among the scrumptious recipes revealed here are ones for Crusty Cornbread (contains bacon fat), Gina's Perfect Rice (with butter), Pimento Cheese Melts (with strips of bacon), Spinach Salad with Bacon, Two Potato Salad (with strips of bacon), Southern Creamed Corn (with bacon fat, butter and heavy cream) and Sauteed Kale (with bacon). Even the Caribbean Rum Nuts recipe calls for butter.
Listen, you can't argue with success, and I'm certainly not complaining, simply asking you not to go hog wild, pardon the expression. To be fair, the Neelys include plenty of healthier alternatives, like Fried Green Tomatoes (What came first, the movie or the dish?) which calls for vegetable oil instead of lard. But I suspect that any gourmet interested in Southern cuisine will go right to the pages on such down home delicacies as Ham Hocks, Spicy Fried Chicken, Old-Fashioned Glazed Ham and, of course, the Neely's trademark dish, Memphis-Style Barbecued Pork Ribs.
With Father's Day's around the corner, I couldn't think of a
better way to drop a hint that it might be time for him to fire
up the grill.

By now most of us subscribing to the Employees Provident Fund must be familiar with the Universal Account Number being allotted by the authorities, through your companies.
Several employees now have received their UAN number. We can now check the EPF balance using this number. There is also a method whereby you can check using the APP, which we will discuss later. If you do not have a UAN, you cannot check your EPF or provident fund balance. Contact your company for the purpose. The Universal Account Number is now quickly being allotted by the authorities as compared to earlier when it took time.
How to check EPF online?
First, there are a number of ways you can check EPF through UAN, apart from the checking of your status online.
1) You can register at the portal for an SMS and receive a notification each time your employer deposits money in PPF your account. This is how you can get to know your EPF balance.
2) You can also use the missed call facility, though once again your have to register to get your balance online.
3) You can also send an SMS and receive your provident fund balance. However, how many of these actually work is the big question.
4) In case you cannot check your epf through UAN, you can use the toll free number as well. One is not sure whether they will give you the balance through the telephone.
Simple process to follow and check EPF balance through UAN:
a) Begin the process by activating your UAN.
b) You need to enter your mobile number as well as the UAN number.
c) Your PIN will be sent to your mobile, which you need to enter.
d) Your UAN credentials will be identified.
e) The user name will be the UAN number of yours.
f) You proceed to create a password.
g) You are now registered on the UAN portal. You can now check your PF balance using the UAN number. You can also download your passbook and have other details through the app. However, we hope the website is working as sometimes it just does not to view the PF balance. As mentioned earlier you can even use the toll free number to check and view your EPF balance 1800-118-005. However, we do not know if the same would be provided and what information is actually provided and if the toll free number is working.
How to Check EPF balance using UAN?
Once you have visited the same you can see login on the right side of the page. Below that you can see activate your login. Click on "activate your login". Thereafter you would receive a box to tick titled "I have understood the instructions".
After this step you have certain instructions that you need to fill in.
1) Enter the Universal Account Number or UAN
2) Enter Your Mobile Number
3) Select the state and the office.
4) Enter your company code provided by your employer
5) Please type the characters shown in the box.
Thereafter you would receive the PIN on your mobile.
You can thereafter enter a new password, while the login remains your UAN ID. You can download your UAN Card, updated PF - Passbook and can view status of your PF Transfers. Once again sometimes you may not be able to check EPF through UAN, because the portal is down, so you can use the app as well.
Better to download passbook through EPFO app
According to the authorities we have now seen a complete migration to the UAN. On numerous occasions it is highly possible, that the website does not work. In fact, we have noticed several times, when it does not. Therefore, what we suggest to our readers is to download the EPFO app. The only two things that you need after having downloaded the app is your UAN number and mobile number, after which you can view your passbook through the APP. Here is how to to view your PF Balance through the EPFO APP
There are some procedures that you need to follow before you check through the APP, which we have highlighted in the above examples. We do hope that using the APP is helpful to check your balance, though one is not sure.
What You Need To Know About The UAN?
1) You need to contact your employer, if you have not received one. This is very important. These days with the Aadhar card your UAN comes very quickly. There were reports that you now have to link your Aadhar Card to the USN, but, we are not certain whether this facility has now been withdrawn.
2) A password is needed to view your balance using the UAN.
3) You can view and download your EPF passbook to know the exact balance.
4) In case there is a need to update your know your customer details, it can be done using the portal.
5) You can use the Aadhar Card, Passport, Driving License etc., for the KYC purpose.
6) You will have only one number in case, you change your employment. It is pretty much like a income tax one, where there will be only one number all your life.
7) Employers too can use the portal to check certain details.
8) In due course, you can file a claim online as well. These days you can get your money in the employees provident fund as early as one week, thanks to the new rules.
9) You can also correct the information in the database.
10) The employer can use the portal to view an employees UAN number as well.
11) Mobile and email IDs can also be added to the Know Your Customer information and can be changed as well.
12) The passbook may not be updated till the very last month, so you need to take that into account as well. In fact, the passbook is not the best way to check your EPF balance and go for the latest balance.
Documents for KYC that are registered by the EPF Authorities
There are various documents by the authorities that are valid for the purpose of KYC. Among these include the Aadhar Card. In fact, this card is now used to link your UAN number for speedy settlements of claims. A passport and the driving license are other documents that are listed as valid documents for the purpose of ensuring KYC and checking your UAN balance. Remember that if you are not able to get your balance or download the passbook ensure that you use the various other mechanisms that we have highlighted for the purpose of getting your balance. It is not very easy to check your balance.
Settling of EPF claims
Earlier, one had to send the papers to the EPFO office. Now, there is no need for the same. As the process has been made online and one can settle the claims online.
UAN does away with the old EPF
The UAN now paves the way for your old EPF number. Henceforth, you would be using only one number and that is your UAN number. This is also becomes useful if you are changing your job and switching your job, your Universal Account Number would come in handy. Remember, that you cannot today easily view your EPF without having this one. This is also very important and hence you need to have one. For newcomers into the job market, you automatically get allotted with the Universal Account Number. There are a number of forms that have to be filled by your company if you are a first time applicant to applying for the UAN. Your company is likely to explain the complete procedures for the same. As we mentioned earlier the migration is now complete.
What you should do after checking your EPF with UAN?
The first thing that one should do after checking your EPF through UAN is to edit your details on the website. Apart from this the things that you can do and see through the EPF website is:
1) Download the passbook
2) Enter know your customer details
3) Check eligibility of online claims
4) List previous member IDS.
Please ensure that your completely KPC compliant before you check your EPF balance.
Things to note when checking your EPF online
It is highly possible that there is a delay in receiving your UAN, which is why you cannot check your provident fund online. You need to contact your employer in case you do not seem to be receiving the same. The other option is to ask the authorities directly. Remember that UAN is a must and almost all employees are now under the same coverage.
Settlement of PPF amount through UAN
It is now easier for the EPF authorities to settle the amount, due to the UAN. The authorities are now planning to settle whatever provident fund claims that are there within a week. However, you need to link your account with the Aadhar card.
What if you have forgotten your password?
If you have forgotten your password, you cannot log into the portal to view your UAN balance. In this case you have to login to the portal, click on forgot password and also key in the captcha. There are certain things that you will have to key in like name, gender etc. This is just for authentication purposes and helps to verify that it is the same person. Sometimes this can be a tedious and very lengthy process. Several times you might also observe that the portal is not working. There are reports now that it has also been shifting to a new website to check epf balance.
Why you need to have a EPFaccount?
You need to have an EPF account so that you save enough money for your retirement. Also, after a period of 5-years the amount in your EPF account is also tax free. So, which means that if you have worked for a continuous period of 5 years and then withdraw your money, you do have to pay any tax. This is one of the major advantages of having an EPF account. Now, you can also check your EPF through UAN, SMS and the government app that can be easily downloaded.
