How the GPS Works
Posted on August 5, 2008
When a network of satellites is placed into orbit, Global Positioning System or GPS can be put to work. As GPS satellites circle the earth in a very precise orbit, it is able to transmit signal information to earth. The GPS receivers pick up this information and calculate the user’s exact location by triangulation. The GPS receiver compares the time of transmission of the signal by a satellite with the time it was received. How far away the satellite is can be determined by the GPS receiver through the time difference. With distance measurements provided by a few more satellites, the user’s position is determined by the receiver and displays it on the unit’s electronic map.
The calculation of a 2D position (latitude and longitude) and track movement can be done when a GPS receiver is locked on to the signal of at least three satellites. The user’s 3D position (latitude, longitude, altitude) on the other hand can be determined with at least four more satellites in view. The GPS can easily calculate other information such as speed, bearing, track and others once the user’s position is determined.

Free for Freedom
Posted on July 23, 2008
The term “free software” associated with programs such as Linux immediately connotes the absence of monetary cost which may be true in one aspect. More importantly though, free refers to the freedom given with its use.
Users are free to run the program for any purpose. They are free to study how the program works and adapt it to their specific needs. The freedom to redistribute copies to help others is also provided while the freedom to improve the program and release such improvements to the public ensures that the whole community benefit from it. A program can only be considered free software if these freedoms are afforded to the users irrevocably as long as they do nothing wrong.

Although many of us have been running away from it for quite some time now, global warming has reached our lives and there is no more running from it. There have already been numerous heat waves all around the world that were so fierce that they caused thousands of deaths.

One of the hardest parts of running a business is finding the relevant consumers to target. The best way to do this is with the help of mailing lists. The problem with these lists is that they are usually too general and it takes endless hours to sort through the lists for the relevant companies. With the help of the business mailing lists from SalesProspects.com it is a whole other story. These lists are much more directed at the specific public that you are looking to target.
