Taking care of patients in renal failure
Ah, the kidneys…who doesn't love 'em? These two little bean-shaped organs will come into play with just about every single patient you deal with. In some cases it will be a chronic and devastating case of renal failure, (such as those patients requiring dialysis), but in most cases it will be moderate and more subtle. In all cases, renal function will tell you volumes about the patient's fluid balance, electrolytes, blood pressure, infection and perfusion. Keeping an eye on renal function is a basic skill you'll use every day as a beside RN…so let's get to it!

What we're talking about here is a limb-threatening condition that, if left untreated, could result in loss of the affected body part, kidney failure and even death.

INDIANAPOLIS Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, a fiscal conservative seen as a possible formidable candidate for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, said on Saturday he has not yet decided whether to run.
Some Republicans have been encouraging Daniels, who served as budget director under former President George W. Bush, to join a field of Republican White House hopefuls that thus far has generated little enthusiasm.
Daniels had said he would not make a decision on running until after the state legislative session ended. That session ended on Friday but he was coy on the subject on Saturday.
"You can't announce a decision you haven't made," Daniels told reporters after signing an education bill that expands charter school creation and provides vouchers for eligible private school students.
He said he will announce a decision in the next few weeks.
"I've been listening to all sorts of people and hearing from all sorts of people, and every one of them has an opinion that I value," Daniels said.
President Barack Obama, a Democrat, has announced that he is running for re-election next year. Republicans consider Obama vulnerable, but the candidates who have taken steps toward entering the race all have their own weaknesses.
Daniels has generated enthusiasm among conservatives by warning about the U.S. fiscal situation, which he compares to the "red menace" the United States faced during the Cold War.
He had alarmed some conservatives by calling for a "truce" on social issues like gay marriage, but said this week he will sign a bill passed by the state legislature that would ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy and cut funding to the family planning group Planned Parenthood of Indiana.
This week's decision by Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour not to run for president next year could help Daniels in his decision. Barbour and Daniels are close friends and were not eager to compete against each other.
"It occurred to me this morning when I was making my breakfast, if I switch from oatmeal to corn flakes, someone would say it was a move to the Iowa caucus. It's just a weird time," Daniels said, alluding the corn-producing state's key early contest in the road to the presidential nomination.

Assumption rolls past Terrebonne
Published: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 at 10:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 at 10:38 a.m.
NAPOLEONVILLE — Assumption won a Division II state championship last season, and Terrebonne reached the Division I semifinals while winning more than 40 games.
But after an eventful offseason for Terrebonne that saw 30-plus-year coaching veteran Chip Didier retire and a bunch of starters graduate, it was obvious on Tuesday which team has a better chance of repeating its 2009 success.
Assumption breezed past Terrebonne, sweeping the Lady Tigers, 25-10, 25-10, 26-24, in a nondistrict match.
"Playing good teams like (Assumption), with a lot of the inexperience that we do have, it only helps," first-year Terrebonne coach Craig Hamner said. "As the game went on, our girls started figuring things out. We had our chances in the third game. We just gave them an over pass, they put it away, and that ended the game for us."
In Games 1 and 2, Assumption maintained control the entire way.
In the first game, the Lady Mustangs (12-7 overall) turned a 6-5 lead into a 13-6 advantage. Terrebonne broke Assumption's serve, scoring two-straight points to make it 13-8, but the Lady Mustangs maintained control, finishing the game on a 12-2 run.
Assumption used strong serving from Dashia Myles and Shea Guillot (eight digs) to end Game 1.
"I think we dominated in the serving game, and that pretty much kept (Terrebonne) off balance," Assumption coach Sandy Fussell said. "I didn't think we passed very well throughout the entire match, but I think our serving controlled the tempo of the first and second games."
In Game 2, Assumption's Jessica Simoneaux (15 assists, four aces, five kills) held her serve for the first five points, and after Terrebonne (8-8) cut it to 7-2, Guillot held her serve for 11 points, helping the Lady Mustangs to a 19-2 lead.
The deficit was too much for Terrebonne to overcome, falling 25-10 in Game 2.
"The inexperience showed," Hamner said. "They're not sure what to expect. Against a good team like Assumption, and the reputation they have, our girls might have been a little nervous. As the game went on, they realized that we could do this, and got a little bit more energized."
Terrebonne's increased energy nearly forced a Game 4, with the Lady Tigers jumping out to a 7-1 lead at the start of the third game.
Terrebonne's Jackie Daigle (16 assists) served the Lady Tigers first seven points, recording one of her aces in the match.
But Assumption didn't go easily, fighting back to retake the lead, 13-12.
The teams went back and forth for the rest of the game. But with the score tied at 24, Assumption's Erineka Mollere (10 assists, seven kills) forced game-point with a kill and Edrielle Barrow ended it with an easy put back on a free ball from Terrebonne.
"We may have lost focus a little bit in the third game, which is a concern," Fussell said. "But we found a way to come out and take the victory, so I guess that's a positive. In that third game, we missed seven serves in just that one game. That, to me, is a focus, a mental problem, especially with the caliber of servers that we have."
Other leaders for Assumption were Paula Breaux (five kills, four blocks) and Jasmine Knight (six blocks).
Leaders for Terrebonne were Darian Dees (four kills, three blocks), Sabrina Bergeron (seven digs, four kills) and Cymoine Fleming (six digs).
At Gray, the Lady Braves swept Ascension Catholic, 25-10, 25-11, 25-13, on Monday to improve to 10-4 overall on the season.
H.L. Bourgeois was led by Ta'Shawna Westley (18 kills, five aces and three blocks), Shannon Jones (eight kills, two blocks), Shelby Rogers (20 assits), Jade Samanie (10 digs) and Ashley Allemand (six digs).

Release Date:
September 26, 2011
Date Published:
September 26, 2011
One of the world's most celebrated scholars, Stephen Greenblatt has crafted both an innovative work of history and a thrilling story of discovery, in which one manuscript, plucked from a thousand years of neglect, changed the course of human thought and made possible the world as we know it.
Nearly six hundred years ago, a short, genial, cannily alert man in his late thirties took a very old manuscript off a library shelf, saw with excitement what he had discovered, and ordered that it be copied. That book was the last surviving manuscript of an ancient Roman philosophical epic, On the Nature of Things, by Lucretius-a beautiful poem of the most dangerous ideas: that the universe functioned without the aid of gods, that religious fear was damaging to human life, and that matter was made up of very small particles in eternal motion, colliding and swerving in new directions.
The copying and translation of this ancient book-the greatest discovery of the greatest book-hunter of his age-fueled the Renaissance, inspiring artists such as Botticelli and thinkers such as Giordano Bruno; shaped the thought of Galileo and Freud, Darwin and Einstein; and had a revolutionary influence on writers such as Montaigne and Shakespeare and even Thomas Jefferson.
Tracing the resurgence of a classic poem of Roman natural philosophy amidst devotedly Christian medieval Europe, Stephen Greenblatt describes a moment of scholarship he suggests may have altered the course of history. In Greenblatt's account, an obscure monk discovered and copied an ancient verse by Lucretius, thus transforming the Western world into a blossoming Renaissance full of imagination and insight. Greenblatt describes this movement not as the tipping point of complicated factors or a shift of revolutionary inevitability, but, as the title suggests, a mere change in direction as surprising and sudden as a curveball--albeit one with profound impact.

Addressing the audience, Hiroi first said that he was pretty nervous. While the game was still in development, he was pretty confident, but that confidence had started to fade away. Now he wondered, whether it was a mistake to make New York the game's stage. He then mused over the fact, that while his field of expertise was creating games for a male audience, this time a female (Satoru Akahori) had written the script.
After Hiroi, Nishino and Terada talked about the development of Sakura Taisen V. The New York Kagekidan featured in Sakura Taisen V first appeared in the heads of the developers when they were still working on Sakura Taisen 3. Ouji Hiroi had originally planned for Sakura Taisen 4 to take place in New York, but at this point company management wanted the game to be released for PlayStation 2, while the developers insisted on a Dreamcast release. Eventually, the game was released for Dreamcast after being in development for only one year. Afterwards, the original plan for Sakura Taisen 4 was revived for Sakura Taisen V. Interestingly enough, this means Hiroi originally had no plans to continue the Teito/Paris Kagekidan storyline after Sakura Taisen 3.
Asked about the characters, Hiroi explained that there was a big difference between former protagonist Ichirou Oogami and his successor Shinjirou Taiga. From the very beginning the former was an elite solider capable of doing whatever he was ordered to do. However, with Shinjirou, he will grow slowly but surely as Sakura Taisen V's story moves forward, until he will eventually face Oda Nobunaga in the game's final showdown.
Since Sagitta Weinberg is a lawyer, it will feel as if there is a seperate court-themed adventure game included in Sakura Taisen V. While the trio again confirmed that there will be an ending sequence for Ratchet Altair, they said it won't be easy to reach it.
Sakura Taisen V: Saraba Itoshiki Hito yo is available for 7,800 yen ($69.55 US). The limited edition Showtime Box retails for 14,000 yen ($124.83 US).

Hurricane Sandy Coming? Weather Puppy Will Make That Natural Disaster So Much Cuter
courtesy of Weather Puppy
As Hurricane Sandy continues its churn across the Caribbean, tearing up Cuba and barreling toward the Bahamas with Cat 2 winds, fear not, Southern Floridians. Weather Puppy is here to make the natural disaster that much cuter.
Invented by Miami entrepreneur Suraj Hemnani and business partner Shiv Takhar, the free cell phone app has a simple premise. Weather updates + adorable puppies = mind-numbingly compulsive iPhone checking.
"We were talking about weather and how it's kind of boring," Hemnani says. "But how it's packaged makes a big difference. That's why there's always a sexy weather girl on TV. We wanted to find a different way to deliver the data and decided that dogs would be really cool.'"
The app launched Sunday and had more than 1,000 downloads by the end of the day, Hemnani says.
The 30-year-old was born in Miami and attended Coral Gables Senior High School before studying finance at the University of Florida. He left a lucrative banking job to try his hand at invention.

Weather Puppy has the potential to make money and do good, Hemnani says. Although the app is free, upgrades (such as "Halloween" and "Fall Colors" themes) cost 99 cents. Hemnani and Takhar have also teamed up with dog charities including Paws4You Animal Rescue in Miami and the Broward County Humane Society to raise animal rights awareness. They hope to soon include photos of dogs that are up for adoption on the app.
While most Weather Puppy users will stare stupidly at the absurdly cute creatures telling them about impending thunderstorms or scorching sun, Hemnani says his hours of work on the app have desensitized him like a jaded skin flick director.
"There was a week two months ago when I must have looked at over 1,000 puppy photos" while sitting in Panther Coffee in Wynwood, he says. "When I told people, they all said, 'Yeah, I wish I were you. You have the greatest job.'
"But after 20 minutes, you start to lose the ability to tell which ones are cute," he says. "It became really difficult to narrow it down."
Hemnani's app -- which can be downloaded here -- opens a Pandora's box of possibilities for puppies in the media, however.
What's next? Puppy Michael Putney dissing on Miami politics? Puppy Pepe Billete snorting mounds of cocaine?
P.S. Hurricane Sandy really is headed for South Florida. Stay tuned to
Weather Puppy Riptide for updates.

NEPM assessment
National Environment Protection (Assessment of Site Contamination) Measure 1999
The National Environment Protection (Assessment of Site Contamination) Measure 1999 (the ASC NEPM) is the national guidance document for the assessment of site contamination in Australia.
The purpose of the ASC NEPM is to establish a nationally consistent approach for the assessment of site contamination to ensure sound environmental management practices are adopted by the community, including regulators, site assessors, site contamination consultants, auditors, landowners, developers and industry parties.
The desired outcome of the ASC NEPM is to provide adequate protection of human health and the environment, where contamination has occurred, through the development of an efficient and effective national approach to environmental site assessment.
The ASC NEPM contains the following Schedules:
Schedule A: a flow chart that outlines the recommended process for the assessment of site contamination; and
Schedule B: that provides guidelines for the assessment of site contamination.
- B1: Guideline on investigation levels for soil & groundwater
- B2: Guideline on site characterisation
- B3: Guideline on laboratory analysis of potentially contaminated soils
- B4: Guideline on site-specific health risk assessments
- B5a: Guideline on ecological risk assessments
- B5b: Guideline on methodology to derive EILs
- B5c: Guideline on soil quality guidelines
- B6: Guideline on risk based assessment on groundwater contamination
- B7: Guideline on health-based investigation levels (plus appendices: B7a1, B7a2, B7a3, B7a4, B7a5, B7b, B7c)
- B8: Guideline on community engagement & risk communication
- B9: Guideline on competencies & acceptance of environmental auditors
The ASC NEPM and schedules are available for download through the National Environment Protection Council (NEPC) website. The ASC NEPM Toolbox contains additional information including calculators, spreadsheets and other supporting documents to assist with application of the amended ASC NEPM.
About the ASC NEPM
The National Environment Protection (Assessment of Site Contamination) Measure 1999 (the ASC NEPM) is made under the National Environment Protection Council Act 1994 (Cth) and is given effect by individual legislation and guidelines in each state and territory.
The ASC NEPM was made on 22 December 1999. In 2005-2006, a review of the ASC NEPM was initiated. A draft ASC NEPM and consultation impact statement were released for public consultation in 2010. On 11 April 2013, the National Environment Protection Council (NEPC) agreed to vary the NEPM by approving an amending instrument to the ASC NEPM.
The amendment of the ASC NEPM took effect in each jurisdiction on 16 May 2013, the day after it was registered on the Federal Register of Legislative Instruments (FRLI). The amendment included repealing all the original schedules to the ASC NEPM and the substitution of new schedules.
Application of the ASC NEPM within South Australia
Implementation of the National Environment Protection (Assessment of Site Contamination) Measure 1999 (the ASC NEPM) is the responsibility of each jurisdiction.
At the time the ASC NEPM was amended in 2013, its implementation was subject to a 12-month transition period and ended on 16 May 2014. Guidance on the implementation of the amended ASC NEPM within South Australia was developed by the EPA for the transition period and published as an information sheet (dated June 2013).
As the transition period ended in May 2014, the original ASC NEPM is no longer to be applied.
The EPA advises that all assessments of site contamination are expected to be in accordance with the amended ASC NEPM.
In order to align with the publication of revised site contamination guidelines and associated interim guidance, any site contamination assessments or audits still being carried out under the original ASC NEPM after 31 March 2016 without the prior written agreement of the EPA, will not be accepted.
A framework on how to apply the amended ASC NEPM in the context of current EPA guidance has also been developed by the EPA.
If you have any questions regarding the ameded ASC NEPM or its implementation in SA contact the Site Contamination Branch on 8204 9934.

Skip to Main Content
The success of file swarming mechanisms such as BitTorrent has motivated a new approach for scalable streaming of live content that we call mesh-based Peer-to-Peer (P2P) streaming. In this approach, participating end-systems (or peers) form a randomly connected mesh and incorporate swarming content delivery to stream live content. Despite the growing popularity of this approach, neither the fundamental design tradeoffs nor the basic performance bottlenecks in mesh-based P2P streaming are well understood. In this paper, we follow a performance-driven approach to design PRIME, a scalable mesh-based P2P streaming mechanism for live content. The main design goal of PRIME is to minimize two performance bottlenecks, namely bandwidth bottleneck and content bottleneck. We show that the global pattern of delivery for each segment of live content should consist of a diffusion phase which is followed by a swarming phase. This leads to effective utilization of available resources to accommodate scalability and also minimizes content bottleneck. Using packet level simulations, we carefully examine the impact of overlay connectivity, packet scheduling scheme at individual peers and source behavior on the overall performance of the system. Our results reveal fundamental design tradeoffs of mesh-based P2P streaming for live content.

The invention relates to an identification card having an embedded IC module for the processing of electrical signals.
The German Auslegeschrift No. 29 20 012 discloses an identification card having an embedded IC module. In this identification card, the module is attached to a separate carrier element along with all its leads and contacts, and is set into a window of the identification card, whereby the contact surfaces of the carrier element are located on the surface of the card and are freely accessible. IC modules of great complexity which are incorporated into identification cards should meet such requirements as needing little space, i.e. small dimensions for the component, and little energy consumption.
Complex integrated circuits having high packing density and little energy consumption are predominantly produced today with MOS technology.
As is generally known, MOS modules, i.e. circuits with high input resistance, are extremely sensitive to external electric fields or electrostatic charges.
There are therefore relevant regulations for dealing with IC modules with MOS technology, which must be strictly observed to protect the components. These concern both the production and storage and the processing of the IC module. Obviously, these regulations can only be partly observed when this type of module is incorporated into identification cards. In the above-mentioned publication, no particular protective steps are taken against possible damage of the IC module and contacts by external electric fields or electrostatic charges. Such fields and charges can endanger the sensitive module under unfavorable conditions even in normal daily use.
The potential danger for modules in MOS technology derives from the fact that the gate voltages may be between 20 and 500 V, depending on the type, and, due to the high input resistance, static charges are enough to make the voltage difference between the gate and the drain so large that the SiO2 depletion layer is punctured and the component is destroyed or damaged. Static charges of this order of magnitude are not unusual in daily use under certain environmental conditions. Especially in the case of plastic identification cards, the static charges produced by friction and so on are a potential source of danger for the operability of IC modules in identification cards.
The object of the invention is thus to protect the IC module in identification cards to a large extent against external electric fields and electrostatic charges.
The object is achieved is solved according to the invention by completely encasing the IC module, including the coupling means necessary for the operation of the module, by an electrically conductive layer.
This protective step can be applied according to the invention both with the means of card technology and a corresponding treatment of the carrier element with its integrated IC module. When the protective steps are relegated to the sector of card technology, conductive materials or films are integrated into the card partially or over the entire card surface, or are used as cover layers and then connected conductively, so that a conductive casing of the IC module along with its coupling devices results, which performs the function of a Faraday shield. However it must be ensured that the coupling devices have no conductive connection with the conductive materials.
When the protective step according to the invention is applied to the carrier element having the IC module, the conductive casing is put onto the carrier element before the latter is incorporated into the card.
The protective step according to the invention is suitable for various methods of data transmission for IC modules. These methods of data transmission will be shown in the following, using the example of a carrier element protected according to the invention; they are also suitable, however, for cards protected by means of card technology.
In a contactless version, the communication between the IC module and the read/write device takes place by opto-electronic coupling. In this embodiment the carrier element is embedded so as to be insulated and is encased by a conductive sheath, whereby the insulating and conductive materials are transparent in the spectral range used for the optical coupling. This can be attained, for example, by means of correspondingly thin layers or known transparent conductive materials.
In the case of galvanic coupling, the carrier element along with the IC module and contact surfaces is also embedded completely in an insulating layer and encased by conductive material. In this case, however, the materials must not meet any particular optical demands, since the data are preferably picked up by thin contact pins which have an insulating casing apart from the point. The pins pierce the conductive and the insulating material to connect with the contact surfaces, whereby the layers preferably have elastic properties so that the openings in the layers close again to a large extent after contacting. Since the contact needles have an insulating casing, short-circuiting of the contact pins can be avoided in spite of the conductive casing in the case of this type of contacting.
The advantage of these embodiments is that the conductive layer forms a completely closed Faraday shield and static charges, if any, are located only on the surface of the conductive material and have no effect on the enclosed IC module. Thus identification cards in which the sensitive IC module has this type of protection are much less susceptible, as far as their operability is concerned, to electric fields and electrostatic charges than the usual identification cards having an IC module, for which no such protective steps are taken.
When the electrically conductive layer is to encase the carrier element completely, the layer can be applied without any particular protective measures, most simply by dipping and spraying techniques. It is neither necessary nor desirable to cover contacts, etc., temporarily, so that no mask of any type is needed during encasing.
When thermoplastic, elastically conductive or conductively coated films are used, usual card techniques can be used as well which do not require any additional measures during the production of the card in spite of the inclusion of the protective measures according to the invention. The invention thus exhibits a high protective factor which can be attained with a negligeable additional effort.
Further details of the invention emerge from the figures specified in the following:
FIG. 1: identification card having an IC module.
FIGS. 2,3,4,5: protective measures of card technology.
FIG. 6: carrier element with galvanic coupling.
FIG. 7: carrier element with opto-electronic coupling.
FIG. 8: identification card with case to protect it against electric fields.
FIG. 1 shows an identification card 1 in which the carrier element with the IC module 2 is embedded, whereby the protection of the sensitive IC module according to the invention is attained by measures of card technology or measures carried out directly on the carrier element. FIGS. 2, 3, 4 and 5 show various embodiments of the protection attained by measures of card technology. Further measures carried out directly on the carrier element are shown in FIGS. 6 and 7.
In FIG. 2 the carrier element and IC module 5 are set into a recess in card inlay 4 and laminated between two electrically conductive films 3. If the inlay 4 is not conductive, care must be taken that conductive cover films 3 are connected conductively at the edge, e.g. by electrically conductive frame 6, which can be made of the same material as cover films 3. Another way of establishing an electrically conductive connection between the edges of the cover films 3 makes use of the well-known techniques of producing identification cards with bonded edges, in connection with electrically conductive films (see e.g. German Patent Specification No. 27 56 691).
FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of an identification card with an IC module protected according to the invention, in which PVC films are used, for example, as cover films 9, having a conductive coating 8 on the inside. If the conductive coating 8 is not transparent, the printed pattern is located between cover film 9 and conductive coating 8. The conductive connection at the edge can be produced again by means of a conductive film frame 11 by one of the methods depicted above.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the conductive layer 14 consists of a conductive layer or film embedded between laminating film 12 and card inlay 13. The card inlay, however, is altogether narrower than layers 14, so that the latter can form a connection during lamination.
FIG. 5 shows an identification card protected according to the invention, in which electrically conductive layers 29 are applied to the front and back of card 27 in the area of carrier element 28. Layers 29 can be applied, for example, by printing or as a conductive varnish. If the transparency is sufficient, layers 29 can also extend over the entire contacting surface. The important aspect of this embodiment is the conductive connection 30 between the layers, which consists of a kind of through-hole contacting, whereby a narrow, conductive metal strip, for example, is put through a narrow opening in the card, bent back before or during lamination and possibly pressed into the identification card. This type of edge connection is also suitable for the embodiments depicted above, whereby the fact that the Faraday shield is not completely closed throughout the thickness of the card will be dealt with in more detail in the following.
FIG. 6 shows a carrier element with an IC module 16 for galvanic coupling according to the invention. IC module 16, held by leads 17 and cast with insulating material 22, is located in a window of film carrier 23. In the area of contact surfaces 17a recesses are provided which are filled with an elastic insulating material 24. In this case insulating material 22 can be as rigid as one chooses. Depending on the particular application, however, complete embedding in elastic insulating material is also conceivable, which makes recesses and additional elastic insulating materials 24 unnecessary and thus simplifies the production of the carrier element. If contacts 17a are made thick enough (additional contact holes, etc.) the insulating layer over the contacts can be correspondingly thin, thus also allowing for the use of less elastic materials. The entire arrangement is then encased by a conductive layer 21, which can also be made of elastic material. The data are picked up by means of thin contact pins 18 which are provided with an insulating casing 19 except on their point 20. To connect with contact surfaces 17a the contact pins 18 pierce elastic conductive layer 21 and elastic insulating material 24, until points 20 touch contact surfaces 17a. Insulating casing 19 extends into the area of the contact points so that the needles are not short-circuited by the conductive layer 21 when in their testing position.
After contacting, elastic layers 24 and 21 can close again in the area of the openings, so that the Faraday shield is closed again. Conductive layer 21 can be produced, for example, by vaporizing a conductive material onto the carrier element or dipping it into a conductive varnish.
Another embodiment of the invention is the arrangement with opto-electronic coupling shown in FIG. 7. An IC module with this coupling method is described by way of example in German Offenlegungsschrift No. 29 26 867. FIG. 7 shows an IC module 24 of this construction, surrounded by an insulating layer, which is transparent in the spectral range used for the opto-electronic coupling. Conductive casing 26 of the entire arrangement must also be transparent in this spectral range.
But it is also possible to have only the areas of the casing 25,26 be optically transparent which are above the light-sensitive or light-emitting components used for coupling and energy supply. The optical transparency can be realized by transparent materials, very thin layers, lattices or net-shaped casings. It is advantageous in the case of opto-electronic coupling methods that, even when the card is used for a very long time, casings 11,12 always remain completely closed and no fatigue of the material due to frequent contacting can lead to a reduction in the protective effect due to remaining openings caused by the contact pins.
The strength of an external field, the diameter of the openings and the distance between the component to be protected and the openings are crucial for the potential reduction of the protective effect. It is thus also possible to form the conductive layer as a lattice under certain conditions, e.g. when the fields are weak or the distance between the component to be protected and fairly small openings is large. It is then unnecessary to make the conductive layer elastic as in the case of the galvanic coupling described above, since contacting can take place through the mesh openings of this sort of Faraday shield.
In the case of opto-electronic coupling, the transparent property of the conductive layer may also be dispensed with in certain cases, when an electrically conductive grating is used and sufficient light passes through the openings for energy and data transmission.
When the above-mentioned conditions are met, it is also possible in the case of protective measures according to card technology to form the conductive layers or inlaid films or materials as a lattice or to use films printed with conductive material in a net pattern. The conductive surfaces or lattices need not extend over the entire area of the card, but must only cover the area of the carrier element, as shown for example in FIG. 5, and be connected conductively at one place on the edge, e.g. by the above-mentioned type of through hole contacting. The reduction of the protective effect is negligeable in the case of thin cards, so that the function of acting as a Faraday shield is retained.
In another emobidment, which is shown in FIG. 8, the intended protection against electrostatic fields is achieved by means of a "detachable" Faraday shield, which can be separated from the identification card and thus removed from the card during data transmission. Using this idea as a base, identification card 32 is kept permanently in a case having a conductive coating on the inside. Case 31 with card 32 is inserted, for the purpose of read/write operation, into a corresponding automaton which automatically removes the card from the case and pushes it back into case 31 after the communication process is over. As shown in FIG. 8, case 31 can also be designed as a portable pocket terminal having a display window 33 for optical information on identity when used non-automatically, e.g. at the bank counter, a keybord 34 and a display 35 allowing the customer to recall the present state of his account or other stored information. In addition, a small calculator provided with a memory can also be provided which allows for external financial calculations as well without affecting the contents of the IC module memory in the identification card. The case can further be provided with a cleaning mechanism to remove dirt from the identification card and possibly also the contacts located on the surface. This is especially interesting when the identification card can be removed from its case by the card owner. In a simple embodiment, the calculator, display and keyboard can be dispensed with, so that the case only functions as protection against external mechanical and electrical influences. The identification card and its IC module are thus constantly located within a Faraday shield during normal use and are thus protected from the effect of static charges or electric fields. It is an advantageous feature of these embodiments that they do not require any special materials or special methods to produce the card and carrier element, but can be used for practically any type of card having an IC module. This embodiment can thus be used as well as a subsequent protective measure for identification cards without an integrated Faraday shield which have already been produced.

I must be missing something about how this works, because I can't figure this out. Maybe someone here can help.
My Address object has a property called ValidationStatus. It is not visible on the screen, but has a hidden field:
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.ValidationStatus)
So, I run the program, open an existing address, which has a ValidationStatus of "OK", and change the address so that it is invalid. I then posts the form to the Controller. The object's Validate method calls the 3rd-party service, which returns an error. The code sets ValidationStatus to "Invalid" and return the View with a validation message.
When the View loads, ValidationStatus is properly set to "Invalid" as I can see by debugging the following statement in the View:
@if (Model.ValidationStatus == "Invalid") //show an additional field.
So I enters data in the new field and again post the form to the Controller. In the first line in the controller, I put a breakpoint and check collection["ValidationStatus"] in the immediate window. It is "OK" instead of "Invalid".
What am I missing here? Why didn't the value stick? There is nothing on the client side that can change that value.
Here's the controller code (pretty basic, really):
public ActionResult Index(FormCollection collection, string destinationControllerName)
PrepareSecondaryData(); // loads drop-down lists in case the View needs to be returned
if (!TryUpdateModel(_policy))
return View(_policy);
if (!_services.PolicyEditor.SavePolicy(_policy))
return View(_policy);
catch (Exception exp)
UIHelper.Log(UIHelper.LogLevel.Error, this, "Error during Save", exp);
ViewBag.Error = UIHelper.GenericErrorMessage();
return View(_policy);
return RedirectToAction("Index", destinationControllerName);

About meI spent the first part of my working life at a large not-for-profit educational testing company, before going to graduate school to earn a master's degree in library and information science. I now manage the library and records management program for an architectural and engineering firm. My partner and I have been together for 15 years and we have a beautiful cat named Princess.
About my libraryLike most people, my library reflects my life and interests. My undergraduate degree is in Political Science, so I have a lot of books about elections and politics. One of my oldest hobbies is genealogy, particularly of European royal and noble families. My library contains numerous books about royalty, the British peerage, European nobility, and prominent American families. I also have a lifelong interest in classical and European history as well as geography.
