20050008087 Tri-state integer cycle modulation
The invention disclosed in this application uses a method of modulation named Tri-State Integer Cycle Modulation (TICM) wherein a carrier signal, comprised of a continuum of sine waves is modulated such that spectrum utilization is minimal. A modulation event is imposed upon the carrier signal by modifying the carrier frequency at precisely the zero crossing point or the zero degree angle. The method of imposing the modulation event is by increasing the frequency of the carrier for one or an integer number of wavelets then lowering the frequency of the carrier for one or the same integer number of wavelets then returning to the carrier frequency to derive the modulation event. The main carrier frequency is only modulated beginning at the zero degree phase angle and ending at the 360-degree phase angle.

Re:Copying the bookI actually searched for The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress by Heinlein. I was given a complete page of the book (as an image)
You only get complete pages if the publisher has agreed to allow that. You can get similar results from Amazon. Any halfway popular book, particularly SF, can be found online as a bootleg OCR, of varying quality, already. (http://tinyurl.com/dxsze). I can buy secondhand novels for a dollar, or borrow from a library, so reading such onscreen is not something I'd bother to do.

Re:Good news
I'd be happy with an N! (540MBs)
Here in Fishers, IN[1], we've got Insight and they advertise 2Mbs or a plus 4Mbs. Unfortunately, they've got a tendency to play with the "Favorites" in the cable's set-top box. For three or four days, they're here, then they're gone a day, and so on. It's tough to approach anything near the max (400Mbs-500Mbs tops) because it's essentially a huge [residential] neighborhood and everyone is busy all of the time[2]. DSL isn't that much of an option for most, because the local loop just isn't quite there.
As far as municipal activities go, they've got a new stadium under development for the Colts and to help finance it, they decided to get the Gov to twist the arms of seven of the eight of the surrounding (Marion) counties, and get them to pay a 1% sales tax for all prepared|served food. I predicted this about 3-4 years ago, when the stadium v2.0 talk was starting to heat up (the missus suggested I not give anyone else this idea)...Indy's had problems with finances, so they had to pass the buck (to themselves) somehow. Marion County instituted a 1% tax in 1984 and it didn't have a sunset clause. So if the current dome is paid for, where's the 1% going? And if it's not paid for (and using the 1%), why are they tearing it down? So they added another 1%, with a thirty-year sunset. The problem is that most stadiums built today only have a lifespan of 14-15 years. I can hardly wait to see how they handle a muni.net.
The funny part about my prediction? Whilst there was a lot of arguing about whether the other counties should pay or not, they were referred to as "doughnut" counties. When I wrote my essay (about two years ago), it featured (and focused upon why the lady in the middle would be taxing the family ;)
Three sides around the barn to get here: has anyone else seen any financially strapped cities make a muni.net work?
[1] Believe it or not, a town of (projected for 2006) 60k people. Special census cost us $500k in 2003, showed enough increase in headcount (total 52k) to bring another $2M/year from the state. Another $500k next year should show that much more growth. Fortunately, our taxes are lower than Indy's.
[2] And now I'm going to have to track down which two neighbors have unprotected WiFi connections named "Linksys" and tell them they're a bit exposed. -

Lets go one better...
the two most populated nations, china and india, each have a single time zone across their entire country. no dst, no time changes, period... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone#Trivia
so what if pakistan/china border has a 3:30 time difference.. that's less relevent here because there's nothing but water on both sides.
makes sense to me....
a single time zone, with no dst, for the entire "lower 48" and (at least) the southern canadian provinces. base it on "high noon" on the summer solstice somewhere smack in the middle.. and for a lack of a better point of reference.. how about using TIME, ILLINOIS?!? at the junction of north, south, east, and west streets. http://tinyurl.com/dcra3
if eastern canada still wants to be screwed up, they can join puerto rico and be +2 hours. alaska and hawaii should be on the same time anyway, they're approximately the same longitude.. make them -2 hours.

Re:links and background infoI'm assuming this must relate in some way to the people who have registered gmail.co.uk, which is now a placeholder page, but wasn't always (I've mistyped it a few times...) According to archive.org, they've had nothing but login pages for a year.
From one of the links in parent's post:
An independent valuation report commissioned last year by IIIR put a value of between £25m and £34m on the Gmail trademark.
Ironically, this is probably a price augmentation in reverse. It's only really valuable because of Google's cachet and advertising power, which makes it a bit strange that they're using such an absurd value to justify their need for compensation!

Re:Yes, but the styles will still be proprietary
The styles are not locked away with a binary key. According to the XML schemata (ZIP file), they're stored in XML just like the document text itself.
An XML document's visual presentation is stored by semantically defining styles in CSS or by translating XML into any other desired format using an XSLT document. -
Re:the secret of the oozeI also thought that recently there has been quite some crap oozing into Wikipedia
If that's the only problem, then we can find ways to deal with it.
The REAL problem is, some of those craps seems to be stuck with Wikipedia. They just can't be removed.
Take this example for instance, the text in is supplied and controlled by a biased party, - the Malaysian government
.The text in the above example has been so prettied up that, everyone reading the text would think that, "Oh, it's such a wonderful place !"
Well, the truth is far, FAR from that. But everytime when we tried to alter the above example to reflect the reality, it is altered back again.
And if we make too many attempts to alter, someone representing Wikipedia will warn us.
And if we keep it on, then, the whole record will be locked up, so that we can't change it anymore.
So, the question is, why Wikipedia is letting an obviously biased party controlling its content, - albeit a tiny part of it?
Why warn us, and sometimes even lock us out, when we only want to tell the truth?
If Wikipedia let keeps up this attitude, the end result is that it will forever be stuck with lies, and Wikipedia itself will become an instrument to spread lies.
That's all.

Re:Why are we hiding from the police, daddy?
Have you read Neal Stevenson's "In the Beginning Was the Command Line"? If you had, you wouldn't be spouting this nonsense.
Seriously, go read this section: http://tinyurl.com/9qukb
In it, he compares two devices: a heavy duty industrial drill called the Hole Hawg, and your basic power drill. Both do the same thing--drill holes--but their intent is different. The Hole Hawg is designed to drill through anything, whereas the regular power drill is designed for household use. The power drill lacks the power of the Hole Hawg, but has safety features that the Hole Hawg can't afford to have because of this. Whereas the Hole Hawg will keep spinning if it hits something hard (and therefore requires a large amount of strength to keep steady), whereas the power drill will slow down if it encounters too much resistance.
Similarly, Vim is the Hole Hawg of text editors, whereas notepad is a regular powerdrill. Both have different intentions, with the former being designed for heavy-duty text editing as a programmer or highly technical user would need, and the latter designed for occasional light editing, the kind most non-technical users do. The intent is different and so the interfaces differ.
It's very, very difficult to create a deep, powerful interface that is easily discoverable. At best, you can make it as learnable as possible. This is what Vim attempts to do. Notepad goes for a shallow, easily discoverable interface at the expense of power. -

Global Warming is a Fact because there's 7 billion people heaving and sweating and mowing the grass and heaving and sweating some more. It will be worse next year this time because a couple hundred million of us will discover SEX, which means even more heaving & sweating. It isn't *just* this or *just* that; it is the entire equation that is changing the planet. The permafrost in Siberia is thawing for the first time in eons. Why? You got it. All that heaving & sweating. Then all these heaving & sweating people have to have machines that heave and sweat so we can heave and sweat in comfortable abodes, so we can have air conditioned cars to ride in to work, where many of us then HEAVE AND SWEAT SOME MORE. http://www.newpath4.com/theanswer.htm . The more heaving & sweating we do the more it feeds CO2 to the vegetation, so that as the rain forest dies we all don't do anything because we still have oxygen and are lulled as you are into thinking everything's OK. Well, it isn't OK. As we lose rain forest we come ever closer to some rain forest blight wiping out our oxygen supply. At which point maybe the heaving & sweating will stop. We're terraformers alright but we're really stupid at it. We're terraforming our own planet into Mars. What we need is a non-polluting new technology that does not pollute at all, a new system that negates the need for Kyoto. http://tinyurl.com/9c7ek

Erosion of intelligence in general
It isn't just science. It literally hurts to be intelligent today. The kid comes into the world, sees what a great big pile of shit it all is, and then is given two choices: work hard to excel at making it an even bigger pile of shit, or smoke pot and listen to music or play games on the computer all day.
It's red pill vs. blue pill, and now that everybody has seen how the trilogy ends, blue pill wins every time. Want to change it? Take the Nazi out of Amerika and put forward a vision of where this country is going to be in twenty years that doesn't involve killing and torturing innocent people around the world.
Really it comes down to this: the propaganda being dished by The New York Times/CNN works well, but only for the retards. The kids you want to see building tomorrow's superweapons can think for themselves, and therefore see this shit for what it is.
And when you think about it, would you really have it any other way?

Reason for No Lightning Harnessing?
We never harness electricity from lightning because it's too easy or half a dozen other reasons, but attracting lightning in the lightning belt to shimmy down a metal pole and parallel to a capacitive circuit shouldn't be too difficult to devise. A field full of "lightning attracting towers" would pull storms where you want them, possibly over to less populated areas. The advantage then becomes a great incentive to build such a field. The good thing is that the government & the laws can't prevent someone from building such a system. You can't legislate against using lightning like the power companies legislated out getting induction power from their power lines. We don't use lightning, but we could. http://tinyurl.com/4txmk
