Here are some more information for Wire Hast:
When it comes to engineering survey equipment, the most commonly used is the GPS or Global Positioning System. This equipment is used for site and compliance surveys. It can also be used in many other types of engineering surveys as well. This is an extremely popular and functional tool that is used by civil and private companies. For this reason, the accuracy of the GPS must be dead on.
It is much more important to have accurate surveys when it is for engineers. The equipment used should always be tested for this before the equipment is wholly relied upon. In most cases, this hast to be done while saving their employer time and money. This can only be done if the measuring equipment is chosen carefully and used to their full extent.
One of the reasons that GPS surveys are accurate is that the satellite that the signals are bounced off of is loaded with protection that makes errors nearly unheard of. There is a sense of security with this type of fail safe in place. This can all be done as long as the engineering survey equipment is totally compatible with the GPS system. The software needs to be purchased to connect to the satellites in order for the GPS to get any type of signal.
There are some variables that will affect the accuracy and dependability of the GPS system. One thing to keep in mind is the weather in the atmosphere. There are many conditions that can render the satellite useless when conducting engineering surveying by GPS. There must also be a solid lock on the satellite constellation that is being used. If these factors are not taken into account, then there can be discrepancies in the reading.
One thing that is vital is to not skimp when it comes to purchasing GPS equipment. If the equipment is not well made, the results can be rendered invalid. It may take more than one survey to get an honest reading. By purchasing the best equipment, the chances for accuracy are greatly increased and the speed of the data collection is as well.
When taking measurements of high geography or buildings, there can be issues with accuracy. This is because there is not enough for the GPS to call upon to make an accurate measurement. Areas that are highly wooded such as large forests are also difficult for a GPS survey to accurately measure. In these instances, it may take longer to gather the proper amount of data to get the precise measurement. This can lead to the need for more than one satellite and receivers being used.
Engineering survey equipment has definitely moved into the computer age. Measuring equipment such as the GPS surveying instruments make it easier to get accurate reading much quicker than they were taken previously. In some instances, these readings will take more time, but the will be more accurate and will still be collected much quicker than survey equipment from just a few decades ago.

Courting Violence
By James F. Cotter
Distortion and deliberate falsehood have no place in rational discourse, nor has violent rhetoric, which tends to encourage violent acts. No political assassination in our history has ever improved the lot of the nation. But to the weak-minded, that makes no difference, and right-wing ranting is more pervasive than ever. The most disturbing aspect of this lunatic rabble-rousing is that it is being engaged in not only by screwball bloggers, rural hayseeds and urban psychos, but also by televised clowns like Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity, and even worse, by the Republican Party’s leaders and elected representatives, many of whom have been behaving like obnoxious children. Such behavior is not only irresponsible, but dangerous.
Neither major party has ever lowered itself to this depth in my lifetime. The inevitable result is going to be violence, and violence is no answer to this nation’s problems. Violence is a problem. Only losers instigate violence, and only the intellectually bankrupt deliberately distort an opponent’s views.
Fox “News” is hosting an anti-tax, anti-spending “Tea Party” movement, evoking the anti-government hooliganism of 1773 that encouraged the attitudes that led to a violent revolution (whether that revolution was justified or not is another question; the point is that rhetoric influences behavior ). “This year Americans across the country are holding tea parties to let politicians know that we’ve had enough,” says Glenn Beck (1), one of the right wing’s most visible spokesmen (and worst actors).
According to New York Times columnist Charles Blow, who has spent considerable time studying the far right, these people “feel isolated, angry, betrayed and besieged. And some of their ‘leaders’ seem to be trying to mold them into militias.” (2)
The actor and inveterate right-winger Chuck Norris wrote in WorldNetDaily, a conservative blog: “How much more will Americans take? When will enough be enough? And when that time comes, will our leaders finally listen, or will history need to record a second American revolution?” (2) The melodramatic blowhard Glenn Beck warns of insurrection and predicts revolution, encouraging his viewers to “Think the unthinkable.” (2) (He has also insinuated that Obama may be the anti-Christ-- but then, he called Hillary Clinton the anti-Christ in 2006 (3); I didn’t know the job had term limits. Texas representative Pete Sessions calls for the Republican Party to emulate the Taliban. (4) Senator Jim DeMint of South Carolina seeks to “put together a consensus of people who can help stop this slide toward socialism.” He refers to these people as “freedom fighters.” (5) Alan Keyes, who lost to Obama in a race for an open senate seat in Illinois in 2004, told a television reporter in Hastings, Nebraska, “Obama is a radical communist, and I think it is becoming clear. That is what I told people in Illinois, and now everybody realizes it’s true. He is going to destroy this country, and we are either going to stop him or the United States of America is going to cease to exist.” (6)
(Michael Cohen, a senior research fellow at the New America Foundation, on allegations that Obama is a socialist: “The charge that Obama is a socialist…has become a de rigueur epithet heard not only on talk radio but in the halls of Congress.” (7) An unnamed blogger in VirusHead last October noted, “Barak Obama is not a socialist….He’s a capitalist—just not the kind of capitalist that will exploit and plunder our economy or our environment because of rampant corruption and greed. He’s not the kind of capitalist that will appoint former industry lobbyists as directors of the organizations meant to oversee those industries. He’s not going to put the interests of the top 5 percent over the interests of the 95 percent, but he’s not talking [about] a revolution of the masses, either.”) (8)
One of the most deranged of the extremists is Representative Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, who tries not to let a week go by without being preposterous in public at least once. She has described elected Democratic officials as the “enemy”: “I’m a foreign correspondent on enemy lines and I try to let everyone back here in Minnesota know exactly the nefarious activities that are taking place in Washington.” In opposing the cap and trade proposals to restrict greenhouse gases, she said, “I want people in Minnesota armed and dangerous on this issue of the energy tax because we need to fight back.”(9)
On Sean Hannity’s radio program, she called for “an orderly revolution….We can’t let the Democrats achieve their ends any longer.” (Even though they were democratically elected, unlike the last Republican president.) Bachman’s latest lunge into lunacy was her slander of Edward Kennedy’s Serve America Act; she has claimed that the act will lead to “re-education camps for young people,” who will be brainwashed into politically correct modes of thinking. (10) She seems to have pulled this mindless notion out of the air—or somewhere.
Savage rhetoric breeds savage actions. Unless the Republican Party’s spokesmen can take a deep breath, accept the fact that their candidate lost last November, and start acting like grownups, violence is inevitable.

To summer by William Blake. Can anyone explain this poem?
To summer William Blake
O thou who passest thro' our valleys in
Thy strength, curb thy fierce steeds, allay the heat
That flames from their large nostrils! thou, O Summer,
Oft pitched'st here thy goldent tent, and oft
Beneath our oaks hast slept, while we beheld
With joy thy ruddy limbs and flourishing hair.
Beneath our thickest shades we oft have heard
Thy voice, when noon upon his fervid car
Rode o'er the deep of heaven; beside our springs
Sit down, and in our mossy valleys, on
Some bank beside a river clear, throw thy
Silk draperies off, and rush into the stream:
Our valleys love the Summer in his pride.
Our bards are fam'd who strike the silver wire:
Our youth are bolder than the southern swains:
Our maidens fairer in the sprightly dance:
We lack not songs, nor instruments of joy,
Nor echoes sweet, nor waters clear as heaven,
Nor laurel wreaths against the sultry heat.
I am not the best at English and I need help understanding this poem.
please!
This is actually a quite difficult poem, and if you are reading it in school, I have to say I am impressed.
You need to pay attention to the title (and ignore the note somebody posted above about tourism); otherwise the poem makes no sense. It is addressed to a personified god of summer. He is imagined by the poet as riding fierce steeds (line 2) with flaming nostrils (line 3). The poet surprisingly invokes him to `allay the heat.' That is, this whole poem is a complaint that summer is too hot! But the poem gets even stranger in line 4.
While the first three lines beg the summer to be less hot, starting at the fourth line, and into the entire second stanza, the poem goes into reminiscence. The poet says the summer, `Oft' (or often) `pitched here [its] golden tent,' and `oft... has slept,' etc. These lines, such as `golden tent' seem to have much nicer connotations than the `flaming nostrils.' The poet has begun to remember previous summers which hot, but not too hot. These lines, and the entire second stanza, are about a `just right' summer.
If you read the second stanza, you'll see all of the imagery is still summery-- one does not swim in winter; yet it is all pleasant and cooling. None of this is taking place in reality, but in the poet's imagination. Initially (line 7) he says `oft' for previous summers; but the fourth line of the second stanza begins a new invocation, or an invitation to `sit down,' and so on, to cool off. The poet says that our valleys `love the Summer in his pride.' This is flattery and a paradox-- probably the summer's pride is to be very hot. Yet obviously what the valleys love is the medium hot summer.
The third stanza does read as a tourist guide. It talks about our poets (bards), and boys (youths), and girls (maidens). Crucial in this stanza is really `bards--' this is one of these poems about poetry. The last line sums it up: we lack not `laurel wreaths against the sultry heat.' An astonishing line! Laurel wreaths are traditionally prizes for poets, and symbolise the power of poetry. The last line asserts outright that we will use poetry to temper the heat of summer-- `against the sultry heat.' He is talking about this poem itself, as an incantation, or the spell, which oft lured the summer to sleep so many years in the past. And he is saying he is going to do it again, to make the prophecy of the second stanza come true once more this year.
Blake is a strange poet, and this is not a traditional seasonal poem. I should mention it is part of a cycle of four poems, with one for each season. They are all very unorthodox, and also rarely read. Congratulations for stumbling across such an interesting poem, however you've managed it. I have very great affection for this seasonal cycle.
