Long Description	GUILT BY ASSOCIATION...UNRELIABLE EYEWITNESS TESTIMONY...SUPPRESSION OF EVIDENCE...DISTURBINGLY IRREGULAR POLICE PROCEDURE... DID THE LAW EXACT JUSTICE--OR REVENGE? Investigative reporter Mick Lowe here presents one of the most fascinating and shocking true crime stories--an account brimming with violence, passions, and stunning revelations. It began on the night of October 18, 1978. Small-town biker Bill Matiyek was having a drink in a Port Hope, Ontario, bar. A gunman suddenly walked up and fired three shots point-blank into his head. Members of the motorcycle gang Satan's Choice, who were in the bar, quickly vanished. Was the murder a cold-blooded gangland-style execution as the Crown Attorney and police believed? Or was it, as the defense argued, the impulsive act of a single gunman? Were the convictions of the bikers the result of persistent police work--or a police frame-up? Did the bikers conspire to murder--or did the law conspire to convict them at any cost? Six bikers were sentenced to ninety years in prison, but many mysteries remain and many provocative questions are still unanswered, including: Who really killed Bill Matiyek? And why?

This symbology was developed by the MSI Data Corporation and is based on the Plessey Code symbology. MSI is most often used in warehouses and inventory control.

This is a continuous non-self-checking symbology meaning it has no predetermined length and there is no validation built into the barcode itself. If you want to validate the data stored in the barcode, you would need to use a check digit. Mod 10 is the most common check digit used with MSI but you can also use mod 1010 or mod 1110. It is allowed but generally not a good idea to omit the check digit all together.

There is a start marker which is represented by three binary digits 110 (where 1 is black and 0 is white). There is also a stop marker which is represented by four binary digits 1001. The remaining markers represent the numeric digits 0-9 (no text or special characters) and each digit is represented by twelve binary digits. Below is a table that describes all of the possible markers. The start and stop markers are the main difference between MSI and Plessey. That and the fact that MSI only covers digits 0-9. You can read these stripes as a binary values where 110 is binary 1 and 100 is binary 0. The stop marker simply has an extra bit on the end.

 To create a graphical barcode using this process, you can simply string together a series of 1 and 0 graphic images once you have calculated what your barcode should look like using the table shown above. You can view the source code of this page if you want to see how we created the example shown below.

This is just an example of one way to perform the graphic encoding. It is often easier to just draw the lines instead of tacking together individual images.
