Plate B was incubated 25 C and had a cell morphology of beige, cloudy thick lines and some cloudy thick dots. This eliminated the possibilities S. marcescens, B. subtilis, S. lutea, S. epidermidis, M. roseus, M. roseus, and C. sporogenes. S. marcescens colonies are red; M. roseus colonies are orange; S. lutea and M. luteus colonies are yellow; B. subtilis, C. sporogenes, and S. epidermidis colonies appear in white.2 This narrowed the possibilities to A. faecalis, P. fragi, and E. coli. All three

ABSTRACT Barcode License Plate Recognition (BLPR) is a system capable of recognising number plates by scanning their barcodes for various different uses. A sophisticated barcode reader and algorithm converts the barcodes, into identifiable data. This allows the capture of critical information such as the registration of every vehicle entering a site or crossing the red light at traffics. This information can be passed to the police to assist in the pursuit and identification of contraventions.

beginning of time. Theories like continental drift, plate tectonics, and sea-floor spreading explain what the earth used to look like and why it looks like it does today. Continental drift states that all the continents used to all be one supercontinent called Pangaea, and over the last 200 million years, the continents slowly drifted apart to where they are now (Evers 1). The theory of tectonic plates states that all the continents and oceans sit on plates or large pieces of rock under the earth and slowly
