How do I power Redstone through a block?

Question

I have seen this in YouTube videos: a person places a Redstone Torch on the wall like in the picture, and it activates a circuit. No matter how many layouts I have tried I can't seems to get a power output on the other side. My question is, how can I power Redstone on the other side of this stone block?

Redstone

Answer

What I imagine is happening is something like this. When the Redstone Torch (highlighted by my cursor) is placed...

You can then transmit this signal to wherever you want. In this case, I'm powering the Iron Door.
