An Enquiry concerning Human Understanding is a book by the Scottish empiricist and philosopher David Hume, published in 1748. It was a simplification of an earlier effort, Hume's A Treatise of Human Nature, published anonymously in London in 1739-1740. Hume was disappointed with the reception of the Treatise, which "fell dead-born from the press," as he put it, and so tried again to disseminate his ideas to the public by writing a shorter and more polemical work.The end product of his labours was the Enquiry. The Enquiry dispensed with much of the material from the Treatise, in favor of clarifying and emphasizing its most important aspects. For example, Hume's views on personal identity, do not appear. However, more vital propositions, such as Hume's argument for the role of habit in a theory of knowledge, are retained.This book has proven highly influential, both in the years that would immediately follow and today. Immanuel Kant points to it as the book which woke him from his self-described "dogmatic slumber". The Enquiry is widely regarded as a classic in modern philosophical literature. Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

After an extensive programme of works, the newly refurbished Window on Wildlife (WOW) is opening on 18 February, giving visitors improved views of the reserve and the birds and wildlife which call it home. Find out more about the project here, or, for the latest information, catch up with us on Facebook.
Image: Steve Round
Nestled in the heart of the Belfast Harbour Estate, Belfast WOW is home to birds and wildlife from around the world, and you can get up close and personal with them from the comfort of the visitor centre.There are over 100 species of birds and other wildlife to be found at Belfast WOW throughout the year, but don't worry if you're not an ID expert - trained staff and volunteers are on hand to help you identify what you see.The birds that make their home at Belfast WOW come and go with the tide. The best time to visit is at high tide each day. To find out when high tide is each day this month visit the Belfast Harbour Commissioner's website. If you're visiting us next month or later, please contact us to find out the best days to come.As you look out over the reserve towards the famous Cavehill, you might spot our resident konik ponies which graze the reserve to help keep it in the best condition for wintering wildfowl and ground-nesting birds like lapwings.Belfast WOW has two new hides which offer great views of nature. They are constructed from shipping containers to tie in with their industrial surroundings.The reserve now also boasts a sand martin bank and swift tower. We hope that they will attract these threatened species and provide cosy hideaways for them to nest in when they arrive on these shores in spring, having travelled thousands of miles from Africa.With lots more indoor space, including a community room and refreshment area, the visitor centre is now full of interactive interpretation for all the family, including information on the rich history of the harbour and the formation of the reserve back in 1998.
Belfast WOW is open every day except Tuesday, from 10 am-4 pm in the winter and 10 am-5 pm in the summer. Access to Holywood Banks and Whitehouse Lagoon is available all year round, but there is no access to the Harbour Meadows.
As a charity, we're reliant on donations from members and supporters to help run this fantastic site, which is why we will be introducing a small entry charge for non-RSPB members at Belfast WOW. You can easily become a member - just ask the team at Belfast WOW. You can then enjoy free access, as well as all the other benefits that RSPB membership brings. If you are already an RSPB member and have lost your card, email us or call 01767 693680 to get a replacement card sent to you. For non-members, the charge is £3 for adults, £2 for students and £1.50 for concessions. Children aged under five may enter free.
Don't worry! Belfast WOW's friendly staff and volunteers are here to help improve your identification skills. Come into the visitor centre, borrow a telescope or a pair of binoculars and prepare to be WOWed!
We offer an events programme with lots for young and old to get involved in. Click the events tab to the left for more information. In the visitor centre there is a small library to keep little ones entertained and lots of interpretation for them to enjoy.
Dogs can be taken to the hides, but please keep them on a lead at all times.

New word: Spamigation
Submitted by brad on Thu, 2004-04-22 17:35.Spamigation: The abuse of bulk legal action. Filing lawsuits in bulk (as in the RIAA filesharing lawsuits or DirecTV smartcard lawsuits) without taking care to assure all defendants are actually at fault. As such, some defendants are bound to be entirely innocent, but this doesn't matter because you don't really plan to take any to trial.
Can also be used for threats of legislation, when sending out cease and desist and other threatening letters is bulk, because it's easier to bulk threaten than to research. Possible alternate spelling: Spammigation.
Privacy issues in GMail and other webmail
Submitted by brad on Tue, 2004-04-20 16:05.Most people have heard about the various debates around Google's new GMail service.

Will 3 tech trends change where we live?
Submitted by brad on Tue, 2004-04-20 14:58.I suspect that some time this decade we will see 3 tech trends converge which might make a big difference in the utility of remote real estate, land that currently remains undeveloped because it is so remote.
The first is already here, the internet. Many people can now use the internet to work from anywhere, and both long-range wireless broadband and satellite let you get the internet anywhere. That can give you data, video and phone service as well as the conduit for work.
It also gives you shopping, thanks to the commitment of the shipping companies to deliver to any address, even remote ones. Now you don't need much locally -- just your groceries and urgent needs. Everywhere now has a giant bookstore and a giant everything-else store if you can get UPS.
The second trend is cheaper remote power. Possibly solar, but perhaps sooner the fuel cell, to give quiet, clean and cheap electricity anywhere you can get propane delivered. We're not there yet but some products are already on the market. If not there are other improving forms of off-grid power.
The next is the return of cheaper general aviation, allowing people to own planes so they can live far from cities and get to them quickly. This is the only trend to see a recent reversal, as 9/11 has put general burdens on aviation. Today the money you save on the cost of a home, comparing a remote location to a big city, can easily buy that plane.
Some things are still harder, including schooling and of course an active social life. But for a component of society that wanted to live remotely but could not make it workable, this may be about to change. Suddenly that remote hilltop with the fabulous view that was undeveloped because it was off-grid and too remote for the good life may get a house on it. We may see a lot of this.
Some new terms to throw out
Submitted by brad on Mon, 2004-04-19 06:09.I like to make up terms. Here are some more for your use or enjoyment.
- Re-fried
- Returned to Fry's Electronics and re-shrinkwrapped. "Don't buy that one, it's been re-fried!"
- Nerd Trolling
- For women who want a geeky guy, dressing up to the 9s and going out on Friday night to the computer store, then standing in front of the hard drives muttering about whether you should get SATA, IDE or SCSI. The guys there alone Friday night are single, smart and probably well off or gainfully employed. Much better odds than the bars.
- Post-Futurism
- Modern, post-modern and futurist are not enough. If you're into the Singularity, worry about Gray Goo and copying uploaded human minds, you're a post-futurist.
The ideal airline
Submitted by brad on Fri, 2004-04-16 06:54.I wrote recently on better boarding strategies. Let me talk about what I really want in efficiency from an airline. Well, it seems we are stymied on getting what we really want, something as easy as a train, due to 9/11 oversecurity, but let's see what we can do.
This airline, at least here in California airports, doesn't use a giant air terminal. Instead, the airport is just the airstrips with a big parking lot running all along the side. (Could still do that at many of today's airports backsides.)
The trip begins as I drive off to the airport. I punch the airline's number on my cell phone. They take the caller-id and check me in, then text message me an electronic boarding pass. (I can also do this from a more advanced device or web browser of course.)
I drive into the parking lot and park right at the "gate." I mean 100 feet from the waiting plane. I grab my bag, hand my keys to the parking valet. I flash my cell phone's screen with the text message in front of their scanner which confirms my boarding pass. I go through the security scan, and into the small structure to sit in the chair with my boarding number on it. I access the free wi-fi.
Not long after, boarding is called, and we stand up from the chairs and walk up the stairs to the plane. (No jetways, at least here in California, though you could have them.) The front and back of the plane are used, everybody gets on in just a few minutes.
We land at a similar airport. When I confirmed boarding, the rental car company (or taxi or shuttle) was informed. As I get off the plane, waiting in the parking zone is my rental car. The scanner in the car reads the text message with my rental code and it activates. I drive away. Or perhaps I take a taxi. Perhaps I indicated that I would be happy to share a cab to the convention center so the cab has a list of 2 people to wait for.
On the way back, again I pull up right at the small valet zone at the airplane's gate. The rental company takes the car and I walk on the plane. My boarding is sent to the parking valets, and when my plane arrives, my car is ready in the valet zone. Off I go.
Of course there are flaws... read more »
Don't call it a hole, call it a window
Submitted by brad on Thu, 2004-04-15 15:24.In talking of computer security, we often use the term "hole" to refer to a security flaw. We also say vulnerability or exploit.
Instead of calling it a hole, I suggest calling it a "window." As in "Somebody found a window into ssh" or "They got in through a window left open in Sendmail."
The plural is left as an exercise to the reader.
New way of watching series TV
Submitted by brad on Wed, 2004-04-14 10:32.My blog's popular today, so let me expand on an older essay of mine I never blogged before, concerning my new style of watching TV, thanks in part to my Tivo hard disk recorder.
In the past series-based TV has made its money by the series getting fans which watch it every week. The fans watch the good episodes and they watch the bad. As long as they get enough good episodes (or very rarely, all-good) they continue to watch the show. Advertisers buy space based on the popularity of the show (though they pay based on the ratings it actually gets.)
With movies and books, we have some fandom (especially for a big series like Star Wars) but more commonly you choose your movie based on things you hear about a particular movie. You may be brought in by good marketing, but more often you wait and hear good things, and then you go.
I've started watching series TV the latter way. I have my Tivo record the series I am interested in. For many series, there are fan websites where the fans hold polls about how good the episode was, starting the very night of airing.
I look at the poll a few days later, and if the episode was a turkey, I delete it. If need be, I read the summary of plot details found on the fan web site. As a result, my TV series end up with nothing but good episodes. Some series are much more watchable if you remove the bad parts. Life is too short to watch bad TV.

More on plane loading
Submitted by brad on Tue, 2004-04-13 13:39.In thinking about plane loading again, where I suggested they paint the rows in reverse order on the carpet where people line up to board, it occurs to me that in reverse order by row may not be the most efficient boarding order.
When each person gets to their seat, they tend to stop there to put away luggage, blocking other people in their row or further back. If they block the people in their row they make them block the people in the next row and so on, which is not efficient.
The most efficient order might be to do all the windows first (starting with the rear), then the middles and then the aisles. (Modify as appopriate for widebody aircraft.)
This way everybody does the luggage loading in parallel, as nobody is stopping them, then another column moves in. The first-row window passengers might block the last row middles for a short time but it would be minimal.

American Express threatens me over joke on web site
Submitted by brad on Tue, 2004-04-13 08:17.On my rec.humor.funny web site, I maintain the newsgroup archives, including this 13 year old joke entitled American Expressway.
Today I got one of those bullying "cease and desist" letters from American Express's law firm, ordering me to take down the joke for trademark infringement. Here's the text of the cease and desist
Do these guys know who they are trying to bully? I guess not, here's my response to them:
You can "Screw More" with an American Express Lawyer
Do you know me?
I built a famous company with a famous name, and then satirists made fun of me by taking advantage of the constitutional protections afforded parody when it comes to trademark law?
That's why I retained Leydig, Voit & Mayer, Ltd, the "American Express Lawyers." Should you ever feel your reputation lost or stolen by free speech and satire, just one call gets LVM to write a threatening cease and desist letter -- usually on the same day -- citing all sorts of important sounding laws but ignoring the realities of parody. Most innocent web sites will cave in, not knowing their rights. LVM will pretend it has never read cases like L.L. Bean, Inc. v. High Society and dozens of others. There's no preset limit on the number of people you can threaten, so you can bully as much as you wish. read more »
Official Candidate Picker
Submitted by brad on Tue, 2004-04-13 06:22.I recently tried one of those online surveys that tries to tell you which candidate is actually most in line with your policy beliefs. These are fun, but subject to bias.
In keeping with my New Democracy category, I started wondering if there was a way to make this process official, and unbiased. It's an interesting process because often these surveys surprise the voter, who, based on campaign ads or peer pressure don't realize they are highly in agreement with a smaller-party platform.
Here's one suggestion for a way to make it non-biased. Each registered candidate could submit a policy statement that they think differentiates themselves from the other candidates. After all are submitted, they would be revealed and the other candidates would decide how they themselves want to be scored by the proposition. (The submitting candidate would be classed as strongly agreeing.) You don't want to put in a motherhood proposition that everybody agrees with as it won't differentiate you from others.
After this we go another round, candidates can submit entries which either continue to differentiate them, or refine or rebut earlier proposals. You can go several rounds, though you don't want the survey to be super-long.
Then voters can take this survey and it will tell them how close they are to each candidate, on the whole and issue-by-issue. read more »
Redeem transit tickets for Carpool lane permits
Submitted by brad on Fri, 2004-04-09 08:03.Carpool lanes exist to reward those who work to reduce congestion and pollution with a faster trip. I know that's good every time I look out my window and can't see the hills for the haze. Some areas allow zero-emission-vehicles (electric cars etc.) to also use carpool lanes with a solo driver, reducing pollution if not congestion.
Proposals have been made to also allow solo drivers of hybrid cars into the lanes, as well as solo drivers who simply pay a fat fee for a permit. Let me propose an interesting variant of these payment ideas.
Let people pay for part of their capool permit with used commuter train tickets. A person who rides the commuter train takes a car off the road just as much as a person who carpools. If used train tickets (for longer trips) could be credit for a carpool permit, this would encourage people to take the train "most days" but still use their car when it's called for. You could allow only redemption of your own ticket (such as a monthly pass) or any ticket, in which case a market would develop with people paying transit riders for their ticket stubs. This would effectively mean the solo drivers would subsidize the transit riders, even making their trips free. Which is part of what we want to have happen here. read more »
Telling good patents from bad
Submitted by brad on Thu, 2004-04-08 17:47.Many people feel there's a patent law crisis underway. The Patent office has been granting patents that either seem obvious, or aren't the sort of thing that should be patented. Some advance that software shouldn't be patentable at all, just as mathematics is not patentable.
I don't go that far, for reasons I will explain. But I have found a common thread in many of the bad patents which could be a litmus test for telling the bad from the good.
Patent law, as we know, requires inventions to be novel and not obvious to one skilled in the art.
But the patent office has taken too liberal a definition of novel. They are granting patents when the problem is novel, and the filer is the first to try to solve it. As such their answer to the new question is novel.
The better patents are ones that solve older problems.
Amazon was one of the earliest internet shopping operations. So of course they were among the first to look hard at the UI for that style of shopping, and thus were first to file an invention called one-click-buy. But one-click-buy was really just an obvious answer to a new problem. The same applies to XOR cursors, browser plug-ins, and streaming audio and video.
Some patents, however, are deserving. I remember seeing CS professors give lectures in the mid-70s about how Huffman coding was provably the be best form of data compression, even after Ziv and Lempel published their paper on their compression algorithms. They took a very old problem and came up with a new answer. Key management in cryptography was a 2000 year old problem, and Diffie, Hellman and Merkle came up with a bold new answer. (As did cryptographers at British intelligence, but I still don't think this makes this obvious.)
While it would not solve every problem, I think if patent examiners asked, "How long has somebody been trying to solve the problem this invention solves?" and held off patents when the problem was novel, or at least applied more scrutiny, we would have a lot less problem with the patent system.
Many people simply say, "we should not allow patenting of software."
This has always bothered me. To me, software and hardware are the same thing, and the rest of the world is slowly realizing that. The virtual world is the real world, and having one law for that done in software and another for that done in hardware is a poor course to take. read more »
Being a privacy nut
Submitted by brad on Mon, 2004-04-05 04:38.Those of us who opposed the TIA and other programs were recently branded as "privacy nuts" for doing so. Hiawatha Bray wrote that it was stupid to quash this sort of research just because it might lead to abuse.
Nonetheless, it is important to understand that this is exactly the role
of the privacy advocate.
Protecting privacy is one of the most difficult tasks in the civil rights
pantheon for several reasons. One is that people are rarely concerned about
privacy invasions until after they have taken place. The consequences of
privacy invasion are often subtle as well, even after the fact. The
simple fact that you know you are being watched alters your behaviour in
subtle ways, causes self-censorship of all sorts of speech and activities.
After all, who acts the same home at dinner with their mother than they
do out on their own at college for the first time away from her eye?
Thus it is important not only that the government not engage in general
surveillance. It must, like Ceasar's wife be _seen_ to not engage in
such activity. Anything that gives the public grounds to fear they
are under surveillance impinges on freedom. Even if the watchers are
well intentioned and well behaved and don't exceed their authority.
But of course, even though they may be well intentioned, countless
evidence shows they do exceed their authority, and not infrequently.
Thus we come to the next princple. That we must not build the
infrastructure of the police state. We must not make it be that the
action needed to have a real police state is to flip a switch or
change a policy. Perhaps the risk that the switch will actually be
flipped is one in 100 in your judgement. To me the cost of such a
state is so high we must not even let that level of risk go by.
Instead, let us always have those who would want a surveillance state
have to do both things -- change the policy and create the infrastructure.
Let us not do the hard work for them.
San Jose Bike Route Airport to Downtown
Submitted by brad on Sun, 2004-04-04 04:52.Pardon the local entry boring to those outside this valley.
San Jose is seeking something "distinctive" for the airport remodel. Let me suggest something I have not seen anywhere else, something that would say something about the area.
San Jose has a bike trail that, except for a short gap, runs along the Guadalupe River from the airport terminals to almost highway 280. The part along Airport Blvd is unpaved, the rest is paved and landscaped. Step one would be to complete this trail and pave the unpaved part. Until the gap can be filled in, create some clearly marked bike lanes. Also do a lane on San Carlos, Park or San Fernando to lead to the convention center and downtown hotels.
Next: Franchise or subsidize specialty one-way bike and electric scooter rentals at both ends. Have regular bikes with towable trailers or trikes, and have electric powered bikes and scooters (again with luggage capacity) for those unwilling to get in some exercise. Make the rental cheap, like a few dollars each way.
This is worth doing just for the polution it would avoid with all those folks taking cabs. (Let's face it, people are not using the shuttle to the light rail much.) It would actually be faster in may cases than either of those methods, especially during rush hour. It would expose the visitor to something other than the highway trip. With San Jose's weather, it could operate well most of the year. read more »
Support public/private in 802.11 access points
Submitted by brad on Fri, 2004-04-02 08:29.Almost everybody has a WiFi (802.11) access point these days. Some leave them open by accident, some deliberately, some turn on encryption or other security. Being open can be nice to neighbours and wanderers, though it can also be abused, and if you have insecure machines on the local NAT, it's risky.
I propose pushing home NAT/WiFi boxes to, by default, work in both open and closed modes. They would support two NAT networks, independent of one another. One network would be for inside. Connecting machines on the inside network would need the WEP encryption key, or in lesser-security mode, be on the approved MAC list. Machines without the authentication would go on the external, open network.
The two networks might have two different SSIDs if the box can broadcast both of them, or it might be easier to have one broadcast SSID and one non-broadcast one.
Traffic for the external network would be given low priority, so that internal network use is never slowed by external use.
In other words, other than ISP complaints, there would be no reason not to do this. It would be good for giving access to visitors to the home or office, and also mean free wireless almost everywhere in the world.
Foresight Conference
Submitted by brad on Tue, 2004-03-30 17:38.The weekend of May 14th, I will be attending (and MCing for part of) the Foresight Senior Associates Conference. This conference is always a lot of fun, with many at the edge (and beyond) ideas about nanotech, AI, anti-aging and other related topics. It's run by my friends Chris Peterson and Eric Drexler and their Foresight Institute. You may have read Eric's book "Engines of Creation."
They are offering readers of my blog a $200 discount on attending. To attend, you must be a senior associate, which requires a $250 annual donation, so the discount just about compensates for that. If you're into futurism, this is a fun place to be.
Accelerometer in Cell Phone for emergencies
Submitted by brad on Mon, 2004-03-29 14:29.In writing the previous entry, another idea came to me that I stuck at the end which is worthy of its own entry. Place an accelerometer in your cell phone that will detect a violent event, such as a car crash or bike crash. Similar to the detector already in the car that triggers the airbag.
Upon detection of the event, the phone would start beeping for about 30 seconds warning about the emergency. If there is no emergency, you would press any key to stop the call. Otherwise it could call 911.
However, it would need to be sure not to trigger an emergency just because you dropped the phone or threw it or went flying when you turned a corner in your car. However, if this can be arranged it could be a handy feature to sell as a cell phone extra.
Why don't cell phones have USB?
Submitted by brad on Mon, 2004-03-29 09:44.In line with earlier thoughts about univeral DC power, let me ask why cell phones haven't standardized on USB (or a mini-USB plug) as an interface?
USB provides power. Not as much as some chargers, but enough to get a decent rate to many phones. And it has data, which can be used for phone control and configuration, speakerphone and headset interfaces, address book sync, ringtone download, memory card download, data-modem connections to PCs and anything else, all with one standard plug.
Every cell store has a rack of scores of adapters, chargers and cables. Each time you get a new phone they want to sell you new accessories, I guess. We have a standard. Why don't we use it, or extend it enough to be used.
(I'll admit it's not a good headset interface due to USB's silly master-slave protocol, since to connect to the PC the phone would be a slave, and to connect to the headset it would be the master. But this can be worked around, and I'll tolerate an extra headset jack.)

Efficient airline passenger loading
Submitted by brad on Wed, 2004-03-24 12:54.Many know that Southwest Airlines has some of the best on-time records and plane turnaround times. Some of this comes from the fact that without reserved seating, people can board the planes more quickly.
It seems to me it should be possible to board planes quickly even with reserved seating. Here's how...
For a simple system, draw on the carpet a diagram of the largest plane that uses the gate. Except put the rear of the plane up by the door, with numbers counting down to the front. Have a 2nd area for 1st class if you need to keep them boardig at their convenience. This can be just a line with row numbers, and a marker that puts window seats near the line, aisles further away.
When boarding is called, passengers stand in the line for their row, and sorted internally as noted, so window seats go first. Then just empty the line into the plane. Being out of place in the line will be very obvious on the plane. If people line up over their row number, you'll never wait while people load their stuff to get to your row, unless you're late for the boarding call -- which few people are today due to crazy security rules.
You hae to decide if premium frequent flyers and "people needing extra time" should go first or not as they do now. My view is that the pre-boarding needs are minimal, and that even a slow child or senior will be better placed with their row than pre-boarding, but pre-board can still be allowed. I also think the frequent flyers would rather have a plane that boards and leaves quickly than get on first, except for one issue -- overhead storage. However, even if you let us get on first, doing this for the rest of the passengers still will streamline things.
You could also just print a series of numbers on the carpet. People would be given a card with their number and expected to stand by it, showing the card. The cards can have a clear colour code making it impossible to hide which group of 12 you are in. In this case, you can assign low numbers to 1st class, pre-boarders and frequent flyers, and just sequence up by seat otherwise. Again, zip on the plane almost as fast as leaving it.

What's a Tablet PC?
Tablet PCs are compact, ultra-portable entertainment devices that let you read email, surf the internet, read eBooks, view photos, play games, listen to music and watch video files. Most tablets are based on a smaller operating system, which allows you to purchase and download additional applications from supported stores. Tablet PCs do not have a CD/DVD drive and will not run Microsoft Windows or its applications. Tablet PCs function as a secondary device for casual entertainment purposes, and are not meant to replace a computer. They are ideal for use around the home and on the go with Wi-Fi or 3-4g mobile broadband connections (pay as you go, contract may be required for service).

Reviews for this vacation condo rental in Vero Beach, Florida
Darrell Yoder
Eaton, oh USA
Great Location
May 2, 2011
This was a great condo. It is in a gated community and was very well kept. If you like fishing, it is great. You can walk out the backside of the condo and throw your line. The only drawback was the TV sets were old and small and there was no TV in the spare bedroom... Other than that, the owners are very nice and were accomodating.. Definitely worth the price.
Owner Supplied Testimonials
Mrs. Lynn Hart:
"I have loved the condo. It is just beautiful. I enjoy going to the beach & pool after work. I will come back next year."

Volunteers are needed to be apart of a cleanup of the Menomonee River and area parks as part of the Riverkeepers Earth Day movement to do a massive unified Southeastern Wisconsin Milwaukee River Basin Cleanup effort on Saturday April 16, 2011 from 9:00-Noon.
The Village of Menomonee Falls has joined this effort and is one location to come and be apart of this great Earth Day movement for the third year in a row. Local citizens have banded together to tackle litter and trash in the Menomonee River to help improve our waterways. The Village of Menomonee Falls will again conduct a river cleanup with the help of wonderful volunteers in more than 20 locations along the Menomonee River and Tamarack Swamp in conjuction with the Milwaukee Riverkeepers Organization.
We are looking for environmentally minded citizens and local groups who want to get down and dirty in the river and surrounding areas to help improve the water quality and streamside habitat for animals.
Volunteers are dedicated to protecting the Menomonee River because a healthy community starts with a vibrant river. Our volunteers are excited to pitch in because a cleaner river is a vibrant river," said Jeff Nettesheim, Director of Utilities.
The Riverkeepers Cleanup is a series of community-based stream cleanups happening in the Milwaukee and Metro area. This popular annual event raises public awareness of the magnitude of trash accumulating in our area's waterways degrading our water quality.
The Village of Menomonee Falls has chosen to be a site captain who will be participating along with hundreds of volunteers taking part in numerous cleanups across the Milwaukee River Basin to remove trash from local rivers and streams.
Within the Menomonee Falls area, there are over 20 sites that you can participate in cleaning up. We are looking for Site Leaders for each of these 20 sites in Menomonee Falls at locations such as Rivers Edge Park along the Menomonee River, Rotary Park, Village Park, and many others. Site Leaders help direct the many volunteers that come to help. If you are interested in becoming a Site Leader, please contact us at email@example.com.
Learn more about the Menomonee Falls River Cleanup at www.Menomonee-Falls.org/RiverCleanup.
"The Menomonee River is so important to our community that we've got to take every opportunity we can to protect it, for us and for future generations. Keeping it clean is one way that citizens can do their part for the river we all love," said Nancy Greifenhagen, Engineering Technician.
The Menomonee River can be found from County Line, Highway Q in the north all the way to the Village of Butler flowing through many popular parks including Mill Pond Park, Lime Kiln Park and Willowood Park.
We appreciated all the volunteers who came out last year to help us on our River Cleanup. We applaud the work of so many people who came out and took action to help keep improving the water quality of the Menomonee River.
For the second year, the Village of Menomonee Falls is introducing calling out for groups, landowners and business to become a part of our Adopt-a-River Program. To adopt a section of the river, signup for a commitment of two years or more and do a minimum of two river cleanup events a year. This will include the major cleanup around Earth Day and one additional cleanup event sometime during the rest of the summer or fall. Gloves and trash bags will be supplied to the group for their cleanup event. In appreciation, all Adopt-a-River groups will receive recognition at our annual Clean River Clear Falls Stormwater Expo.
To be a part of the Menomonee Falls River Cleanup, pre-register online for your favorite location. Meet at the Rotary Park Shelter on Fond du Lac Ave., registration begins at 8:15 AM on Saturday morning April 16, 2011. Then travel to your chosen cleanup location from 9:00 until Noon. At Noon come back to Rotary Park Shelter for food and prizes. For more information contact Nancy at (262) 532-4417 or firstname.lastname@example.com. To pre-register, go to www.Menomonee-Falls.org/Signup

Ask TV Squad: Where can you find a list of shows with geographic names?
by Richard Keller, posted Dec 29th 2006 3:37PM
TV Squad reader Kat Griffith asks us this interesting question:
I am trying to find a list of TV shows that have geographic names in their titles, I know of a few but was wondering if there is a list of shows out there somewhere.
Kat, we spent many hours on Google trying to find such a list, but no luck. However, if you are interested in a list of TV show settings you may want to order a copy of TV Land: A Guide to America's Television Shrines, Sets, and Sites, which is available for sale on amazon.com.
But, you're not looking for that type of information. So, as a public service to you, and our other rabid readers, here is a list of geographically-named shows that was compiled by the equally rabid staff of TV Squad writers. The list can be found after the jump.

Frances Woolley is a professor of economics at Carleton University, where she teaches public finance
When Canadians are asked, "How satisfied are you with your life in general?" more than 90 per cent respond "satisfied" or "very satisfied".
Yet one group has a significant satisfaction deficit: immigrant children, and their parents.
A recent working paper by Peter Burton and Shelley Phipps of Dalhousie University studies the life satisfaction of youth who immigrated to Canada as children, plus immigrant parents. They used data on thousands of recent immigrants and Canadian-born families collected through the Canadian Community Health Survey from 2002 to 2008.
Immigrants' lower satisfaction comes down, in part, to economics. The immigrant families Burton and Phipps studied had incomes approximately one third lower than those of comparable Canadian families. These income differences explained more than one quarter of the satisfaction gap between Canadian-born and immigrant youth. For parents, the loss of life satisfaction due to low income was even greater, perhaps because parents make sacrifices to shield their children from economic hardship.
Yet no one expects immigration to be easy. Coming to a new country, not speaking the language, and being separated from family and friends is hard. For girls in particular, ethnicity and language appear to explain a significant portion of the satisfaction gap between immigrants and non-immigrants.
Language and ethnicity are important to parents too. Burton and Phipps found that 43.5 per cent of the gap in satisfaction between immigrant and Canadian-born mothers could be explained in terms of language and ethnicity differences, with East Asian and Black parents (but not South Asian ones) experiencing lower levels of life satisfaction.
But does it get easier over time?
Burton and Phipps answered this question by looking at people's sense of belonging, how they answered the question ""How would you rate your sense of belonging to your local community?"
Immigrants felt less of a sense of belonging than the Canadian-born. For youth, feeling like you don't belong is a better predictor of being less satisfied with life than being an immigrant. Indeed, once Burton and Phipps controlled for people's sense of belonging, the gap between immigrant and comparable non-immigrant youth went away. (That was not true for parents, however -- even immigrant parents who felt like they belonged to their local communities were still less satisfied than non-immigrants).
But is feeling like you belong just a matter of time, something that builds the longer you're in Canada? For parents, the answer is yes: the longer immigrant mothers and fathers live in Canada, the more they feel like they belong to their local communities.
For teenage girls, however, the answer is no -- girls who have been in Canada for longer are less likely to feel a strong sense of belonging to their local community.
After reading Burton and Phipps' paper, three things struck me.
The first was the sheer magnitude of the satisfaction difference between immigrant and Canadian-born mothers: 22.9 per cent of immigrant mothers -- those who have been in Canada 17 years or less -- are very satisfied with life, compared to 48.5 per cent of Canadian-born mothers. I wonder: are there policies that would reach out directly to immigrant mothers, getting people involved in the local community, whether that's coming to meet the teacher nights, or joining school councils? Or is it just economics: immigrant mothers are shouldering the burden of making ends meet.
The second thing that struck me about Burton and Phipps' was the pain of not belonging. How will immigrant girls who find themselves caught between different sets of cultural expectations sort it all out?
Finally, it's not all bad news for immigrants. Immigrants are, on average, more likely to be in excellent health than the Canadian born. Researchers call this the healthy immigrant effect, and attribute it to diet. Immigrants are also more likely to live in two-parent families. By making good lifestyle choices, like instilling healthy eating habits, immigrant parents may be building the foundation for future life satisfaction.

I totally understand the horrible NICU nurse problem. When Lexi was in the NICU they wouldn't let me hold her except to feed her and they always were letting the babies cry. I was terrified to leave her because they wouldn't change her diaper until the next feeding and wouldn't pick her up when she cried. I was so glad to get her out of there. |

Natural Law is real.
Everything else will lead you into your imagination.
That is what Religion does.
It keeps you in your imagination.
And that is why the Rothschilds allow sites like this.
Because it keeps the masses in their imaginations.
And we are required to be honest in plain site, to give you the opportunity to find the truth on your own.
Open Your Eyes
There are no Laws. There are only Virtues.
Thou Shalt not Harm, Thou Shalt not Rape, Murder, or Enslave......!!!!!
There are consequences but, Higher Ups determine that, mainly your own Soul.
Anyone with Love that is ready to learn or be helped IS! Forgiveness too! Though perfect knowledge is the hard one, and again, our Souls are very tough on us. Spirit/Ray of Thought has to be alligned to the Frequency of Love of the Mind/Soul it is a part of to return.
The physical realm laws are irrelevent to me.
There is No Spoon.
Ah, but,
I think both of you have made points that could be considered from a different perspective.
They both affect free will, about the choices one makes. About being as conscious as we can be of the forces within and surrounding us, and, learning to use them to our advantage.
This is how I think this 'spoon' meme shows
there ARE LAWS
. It's up to us to find a way to align ourselves to them, so we can slip into (their) reality.
If we choose paths with little care as to where they might lead us, we simply exist as is; then all we are discussing has no consideration.
But, as we gain awareness, I think
has a very important role to play, as long as we continue to move forward, in ways it will not trap us. We might get stuck for a while, but, only until we advance.
Likewise, the physical realm laws also play an important role.
Think of it as a progression. In order to be part of something, we must understand its parameters, and how we might fit it. We must understand what is hindering our progress, why we are not seeing it work. We use reasoning to analyse where we are, against where we want to be.
With imagination, we get to analyse what the correct balance might be. Hit and miss, we can get there.
If we are being blocked in attaining this balance, we MUST consider how the physical realm laws are in play. Even SolarSon has noted that certain substances can hinder us. If our lifestyle is not healthy, we cannot use our energy to our full advantage. If our energy is being compromised, we must consider how to balance it.
This consideration
imagination, for it helps us to realize why we are stumbling. It also helps us KNOW which
to choose. All of our preparation will be futile if we follow the wrong path in the end. What works for one person does naught for another.
Once we get everything in balance, by imagining a better way, by using the laws of the physical realm to attain our correct balance, only then do we move forward without resistance.
we manage to imagine need not imprison us.
So, there are Laws.
Virtue is all about morality. Some schools of thought consider Natural Law in aspects of moral behavior, yet, Natural Law, without the interference of philosophical interpretation, really is nothing other than the balance of our physical realm.
It is the energy of the world around us, the actions and reactions of the frequencies of everything around us: the classical elements of earth, wind, fire, air, metal, water, wood, and, the aether. And, for the purposes of human considerations, how they all affect us.
Sungaze_At_Dawn, I mean no disrespect, but, considering the MAIN POINT of SolarSon's thread, I do not think that Love is all that matters here.
It is about freeing one's self of the conditioned effects of those forces that keep our souls from advancing.
While LOVE
inherently important in life, we have the ability to break the cycle of corporeal life in death. This does not come naturally, it must be attained through our own efforts.
At least, that's my understanding of this thread.

Found this Auto Bean Bag Holder that I might consider, but I have to see the Car Kit first before deciding Auto Bean Bag Dash Holder with Car Charger for the HTC EVO 4G - uses Gomadic TipExchange Technology Same website has some other stuff as well HTC EVO 4G Accessories with TipExchange Buy.com has it as well. Even cheaper here http://www.extremepda.com/ARKON-SM212.html
well, sent a message to one mod and they didn't take care of it. just sent a PM to another one so hopefully it'll get done.
Patience my dear, we will get to it soon enough. AS for sticking this thread, its done, but its only temporary. Once the sub-forums are set up things will be unstuck and moved around. TS
Awesome. Thanks, TS. Hopefully, when the admins have the sub-forums set up, it'll help a 'bit to have a lot of the thread URL's there to merge and organize.
Does anyone know if the Zagg Invisible Shields work on the Evo? It has a capacitive screen right? So can you even use a screen protector? If it somehow works, does it diminish the performance?
Here's the Arkon friction mount for cheaper at amazon.com Amazon.com: Arkon Weighted Friction Dash Mount for Universal…
If so and it's better than the 10% I got off on my pre-order, I'll cancel and redo. Haven't heard anything about a sale yet though.
hey guys, please go here and request accessories, specifically cases, for the Evo. Incipio makes some high quality stuff. thanks! Incipio Carrying Cases - iPhone, iPod, MacBook, BlackBerry and Zune Case and Accessories
I like Incipio's products. I've decided that I'm not going to ask all these accessory makers to make products though. Seems like we're having to do that with a lot of these manufacturers. I want more selection, but it's really up to them to move to meet market demand. Seriously, there are probably 10k times more styles and models for every Apple product invented so if they really want to, they would. I am always amazed though that none of these makers don't jump on this and seize market share. Though I like Incipio, I already pre-ordered from Seidio because they said they'd be getting some Evos and starting their production for release on or just prior to the June 4 Evo release. They might run a few days behind to catch up with pre-orders, but I'll wait. I've seen some other Seidio products and willing to give them the same shot at my wallet that I did with Incipio. I wish they'd make a Feather case for this phone. I'd buy a second case no problem.
You know, I didn't even think about that. Well, if people who have Invisibles ...I mean, Incredibles (LOL...totally blanked on the name for a second, so I thought I'd leave my original thought) are using them then we should have no problem. Anybody check with the peeps who have Incredibles?
Zagg guarantees that their products won't interfere with the use of the phone in anyway, I don't see why it would be any different with the EVO.
Zaggs do block damage and have never caused any touch use problems for me, but they are not the clearest, smoothest shields available. I've never had an issue with Zagg durability or installations, but you can see the Zaggs on every device I have them on. By contrast, you cannot see the Fullbody Films shields anywhere except with a close side view of the devices where ultimately the shield has edges. But head on and to touch, the FFs are so much clearer and smoother than Zagg that I wouldn't put Zaggs on anything until they significantly improve in clarity and smoothness.
I have a question about the belt clip holsters. I hear that the magnetic versions are not good for touch screens. Can anyone here clarify if that's true?
Never had an issue with magnetic flips and touchscreens. I do wish Sena would make a leather flip pouch for the Evo. I have a black/red Sena case that is very luxurious looking and feeling yet protective and easy to use. Sena's a little slow doing anything not Apple though.
Here's my question. From the unboxings, it doesn't appear that there will be a wired headset/mic with the phone. where would one obtain one if I decide not to go with the bluetooth route? any wired headphone would work, but I need one that has the mic as well.
Yes, any 3.5mm wired headphone/headset with mic will work. What will NOT work are any wired headphone/headset with inline button controls to stop/start calls and stop/start music. I should clarify that there MIGHT be a set out there that does work with Android, but that is unclear & unconfirmed, from what I've researched thus far. There's an HTC set out there that had promise, but that only works with WinMo - there are no Android drivers for it.
Whoa True, but Seriously, if they made that same product for the EVO, I will jump on it like nothing else. True the back of the battery case will look bulky or not so form fitting, but think about it, I can easily take off the back cover and put on the default one when I am not in the car. In the car, I take off the default cover and put on the one that comes with the car kit. That car kit looks so nice. I wonder if Expansys actually makes them or another company does for them. I am even willing to buy the sucker and see if i can mod it to fit the EVo (providing I can find a separate EVO back cover to test on. Edit: Now on further examination, I see that the on the Expansys site the device has a different type of holder. Which looks like it does not need to have that battery cover with the wart thingy in the back. i just might buy this one and then compare it with the one from Best Buy (when that one comes in) to see which one looks better. Note: click on images to open in full size. TS out

Personal Injury and Product Liability
When considering a Personal injury or Product liability attorney, experience and a proven track record are critical to a successful case. Beasley Allen has acquired the reputation of being one of the most successful personal injury and product liability law firms in the country. Our personal injury and product liability attorneys have built a national reputation in handling these types of cases with exceptional skill, diligence and success. Our attorneys work closely with our support staff to provide thorough and detailed evaluations and research for each case.
What is personal injury?
A personal injury occurs when a person has suffered some form of injury to the body, either physical or psychological. Usually these claims also assert that the person's injury has been caused by the negligent or wanton conduct of another.
The most common type of personal injury claims arise out of traffic accidents, accidents in the workplace, assault claims, accidents in the home, aviation accidents, nursing home neglect, and sexual abuse.
What is Product Liability?
When individuals are harmed, injured or killed by an unsafe, or defective, product, they may have a cause of action against the manufacturer, supplier, distributor or retailer of that product. This area of law is known as Product Liability. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), deaths, injuries and property damage from consumer product incidents costs more than $700 billion each year.
In the United States, the claims most commonly associated with product liability are negligence, strict liability, breach of warranty and various consumer protection claims. The majority of product liability laws are determined at the state level and vary widely from state to state. Each type of product liability claim requires different elements to be proven to present a successful claim.
A products liability claim is usually based on one or more of the following:
- Design defect
- Manufacturing defect
- Failure to warn
What can I do?
If you feel you have a claim, our attorneys would like to talk to you. You may be entitled to compensation. Contact us today for a free, no-obligation legal consultation.

ABSTRACT: Two-dimensional (2D) systems play a special role in many-body physics. Because of thermal fluctuations, they cannot undergo a conventional phase transition associated to the breaking of a continuous symmetry. Nevertheless they may exhibit a phase transition to a state with quasi-long range order via the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) mechanism. A paradigm example is the 2D Bose fluid, such as a liquid helium film, which cannot Bose-condense at non-zero temperature although it becomes superfluid above a critical phase space density. Ultracold atomic gases constitute versatile systems in which the 2D quasi-long range coherence and the microscopic nature of the BKT transition were recently explored. However, a direct observation of superfluidity in terms of frictionless flow is still missing for these systems. Here we probe the superfluidity of a 2D trapped Bose gas with a moving obstacle formed by a micron-sized laser beam. We find a dramatic variation of the response of the fluid, depending on its degree of degeneracy at the obstacle location. In particular we do not observe any significant heating in the central, highly degenerate region if the velocity of the obstacle is below a critical value.Nature Physics 05/2012; 8(9). · 20.60 Impact Factor
