    “The strongest affection and utmost zeal should, I think, promote the studies concerned with the most beautiful objects. This is the discipline which deals with the universe’s divine revolutions, the stars’ motions, sizes, distances, risings and settings…for what is more beautiful than heaven?” —Copernicus: On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres, Andreas Cellarius 1543 [front:] The Copernican System from Andreas Cellarius, plate 5 from Atlas Coelestis seu Harmonica Macrocosmica, 1660.

(Daylight Savings Time observed) “What you are trying to understand is the meaning of [the] situation as a whole. The reason the position of the planets is important is simply this: if you realize the universe is an organism in the broadest sense of the term, a system of integrated activities, then anything that happens within that system of integrated activity has a place and function within that system. If you want to understand a particular point in time-space within that system, you have to see it in relation to the whole system. The wholeness of the system is constantly working in polyphonic harmony with the life of the individual which has become separated from the whole by becoming itself, a little whole, a little organism.

    ESPOO 2003 VTT PUBLICATIONS 506 VTT PUBLICATIONS 506 Watching television from a wireless pen tablet or pocket-sized terminal is interesting in many situations. Public and private transportation vehicles, and public places are potential environments for mobile television services. Even in homes, mobile television handsets are interesting, both as a personal Mobile television - technology and user experiences. Report on the ... television set and as a tool for establishing closer interaction with the television programs. This publication presents results about people´s real interest in mobile television. The results come from interviewing a large number of persons and from building and trialing a prototype system. A total of 293 people took part in the interviews and the trial. The trial system combined several types of wireless networks in a 4G fashion. It took digital terrestrial television broadcasts from the air and delivered them over the Internet to mobile terminals in hot-spot areas covered by Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). Two kinds of terminals were used - a pocket-sized PDA and an A5- sized tablet PC. In the field trial the user could watch almost the entire program content of the three leading Finnish TV channels. The user was also able to access all programs transmitted during the previous week from the media server (TV-Anytime feature). This publication is intended for producers and distributors of television content, as well as for people in the handset device industry; it is also useful for students and people who are generally interested in the future of television. The publication starts with a review of television usage patterns and early experiences of digital television and mobile television trials around the world.

  • Fairweathercomments2.Txt Comment 1 I Agree with the Proposed Policy

    FairweatherComments2.txt Comment 1 I agree with the proposed policy. The findings that setting rigid guidelines in the technology rich environment is extremely counter-productive! The referring webpage: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/fairweather/ 2 "To Whom It May Concern, I would like to comment on the proposed policy on partnerships. On the whole it seems to be an acceptable document. I do not see much in there that differs from the present operating environment of the NWS. The first comment I would like to make is that I feel there must be a statement in this policy that the maintenance and expansion of a robust network of meteorological observation stations that provide this timely data collection and dissemination is critical to the core mission of the NWS (promoting the safety of life and property) and will remain a top funding priority, over and above the installation of any new products or services. Additionally, I feel there must be a paragraph in this policy that explicitly states that the NWS will not enter into any contracts or agreements with a non-governmental entity to provide weather data collection or the issuance of NWS approved forecasts or alerts. These goods and services must remain in the full control of the NWS to assure dat quality and full and unrestricted access. It is my belief that for-profit contractors will seek to provide these goods and services to the government at the lowest cost to themselves. As a result the quality and timeliness of the goods and services will necessarily suffer. Additionally, a commercial entity would continually push to restrict access to certain types of ""value added"" data/services to ""subscribers"".
