Eccoci all'ultimo giorno dell'anno, di questo 2008 che a mio modesto parere è stato uno dei migliori da 10 anni a questa parte.Ottimo l'innevamento invernale,nessun giorno di blocco del traffico per inquinamento da polveri sottili in questi ultimi 3 mesi, e un'abbondante quantità di pioggia caduta nei 365 giorni appena trascorsi.Ha nevicato il giorno di Pasqua,il giorno di ferragosto nella mia zona ha fatto capolino un funnel tornadico, vedi report nel blog, 3 nevicate prima delle feste, e la neve che fà la sua apparizione nel giorno di Natale,ora manca il primo dell'anno e l'epifania,ci stiamo lavorando,e guardando il cielo, proprio mentre scrivo, ci sono ottime speranze che il trend positivo continui.Vi saluto augurandovi un sereno veglione e che il 2009 vi possa portare tutto quello che desiderate. AUGURI.

Com es mesuren les onades?

Durant el temporal, molta gent feia càlculs de quan mesuraven les onades. Alguns deien que feien 14 i 15 metres. Jo, pobre de mi, els hi intentava explicar que no, que farien uns 8-9 metres com a molts a estirar. Una cosa semblant, em va passar l’any passat, explicant el temporal que va haver-hi a primers de març del 1986, quan deien que les onades eren de 12 metres i jo deia que feien uns 6-7 metres.

Per sort, tenim molt bona tecnologia avui dia. I en les següents gràfiques, podem apreciar l’evolució de l’altura de les onades. En els dos gràfics, corresponents a les boies de Roses i de Blanes (desembocadura de La Tordera), observem com les onades van passar dels 8 metres (indicació en centímetres a la part esquerre “Hmàx”) però en cap moment passant dels 9 metres. A baix, podem apreciar els dies, i s’aprecia clarament, com va ser la nit del divendres dia 26 a dissabte dia 27, quan el temporal va arribar al seu punt més àlgid. Amb una alçada màxima propera els 9 metres a la boia de Roses i lleugerament superior als 8 a la de Blanes.



Però com es mesuren realment les onades?

Ha Catalunya, tenim la Xarxa d’Instruments Oceanogràfics i Meteorològics (XIOM) que és propietat de la Generalitat de Catalunya i està composta per un conjunt d’equipament de mesura de les variables costaneres més significatives mitjançant diferents tipus de boies, estacions meteorològiques i mareògrafs.

Actualment, hi ha diferents boies situades a diversos punts de la costa catalana (golf de Roses, delta de la Tordera, d Delta del Llobregat i cap de Tortosa) que proporcionen informació sobre l’onatge. La xarxa es complementa amb la de Ports d’Espanya, que disposa de boies a la bocana dels Ports de Barcelona, Tarragona i Palamós i davant de Tarragona i del cap de Begur (figura 1).

Durant el 2006, es van fondejar quatre boies meteorològiques que proporcionen informació sobre les condicions meteorològiques al mar i sobre els corrents marins, tant a la superfície com a 15 m de profunditat.
En la figura següent, podem apreciar com estan composades les boies i la seva utilitat.

Però durant els darrers anys, la necessitat d'una observació millor del medi ambient i el desenvolupament en el camp de la previsió i dels models numèrics han ampliat els sectors interessats en l'obtenció de mesures de les variables costaneres. El 1999 el Servei de Meteorologia de Catalunya (SMC), Ports de la Generalitat (PG) i els anteriors DPTOP i LIM/UPC van acordar donar un nou impuls a aquesta xarxa. Atès el creixement de les aplicacions en temps real, es va prioritzar la centralització automatitzada de les dades i la seva difusió per Internet.

El conjunt actual de la xarxa de boies ha proporcionat les sèries temporals d'onatge més llargues fins al dia d'avui del litoral espanyol. En la figura 1 es pot observar l'estat actual de la xarxa de mesures que, gràcies a la col·laboració de les esmentades institucions, arriba a proporcionar dades per a la caracterització exacta del clima marítim de la costa catalana.

Finalment, arran que el Departament d'Interior va aprovar el Pla especial d’emergències per contaminació accidental de les aigües marines a Catalunya (CAMCAT), es va signar un acord que estableix l’ampliació de la XIOM, tant en punts de mesura com en les variables meteorològiques i oceanogràfiques per mesurar, finançada pel DPTOP. Dins d'aquesta ampliació l’any 2005 el DPTOP va adquirir quatre noves boies més que es fondejaran al llarg del primer semestre de l’any 2006. Aquests nous equips de mesura proporcionen informació sobre les condicions meteorològiques al mar i sobre els corrents marins tant a la superfície com a 15 m de profunditat.

JETS NEED A COACH THAT FITS

JETS NEED A COACH THAT FITS
by TJ Rosenthal-Football Reporters Online

Woody Johnson and GM Mike Tannenbaum have both expressed their desire for a coach that would better fit the direction of the franchise from this day forward. Most Jet fans agree with this assessment. So, after 48 years of dreary football, Jan 12 1969 aside, I've compiled a list of people that truly fit the franchise as it exists today: A team with a 39 year old interception happy quarterback in limbo, a top 5 draft pick who had one more tackle than the kicker this season, and a team that at 8-3, couldn't beat a 2 win team down the stretch in order to control their own destiny.

1-Fireman Ed: Ed has seen more bad football and poor coaching decisions first hand than any human being alive or dead in the history of mankind. His experience alone will provide him with the knowledge of what NOT to do. That's a plus. A major plus. Not to mention, he can jump on players' shoulders during TV timouts to start the Jet chant through the stadium to get the crowd going. His charming lovable clown like demeanor is far and away the best fit going forward.

2-Joe Namath. Why has Broadway Joe, the only Jet that any Jet fan can speak proudly about , never been approached about this position? HE'S THE ONLY JET WHO HAS EVER WON! HE EVEN GUARANTEED IT! Ok ok, he had that sideline incident with Suzi what's her name a few years back. Tried to make out with her during an interview as the Jets were getting blasted by the Pats. You see though, THATS what the Jets need. A little flair. Even in a loss, Joe is gonna make it interesting, get a few phone numbers , wear a mink coat. No better yet , Woody can peel off the Namath jersey that the owner himself licks like a stamp every Sunday on the field level wall and let Joe wear it. This way if Vinny Testaverde, who I'm assuming the Jets will re sign in the offseason to get younger at the position, throws an interception, Broadway Joe can put himself in and try and rally the team late. If Ed turns down the job Woody, offer it to Namath.

3-George Bush. He'll be out of work in a few weeks and could bring a no nonsense attitude to the sidelines. Dick Cheney could run the offense, The Jets would throw bombs on every play. Donald Rumsfeld could run the defense. The Jets would blitz on every down. Even during tv timeouts. They wouldn't even wait for opposing teams to bring their offense onto the field at times and would pre emptively blitz the sidelines. They'd have blitzing players hit trainers, sideline reporters, flip over the benches and heaters. Now this would be a return to the old Oakland Raiders style of football in the early Seventies, but it worked for the Silver and Black. Not a bad move if the Jets brass feel that the collapse was due to the fact that the team got "soft" down the stretch.

4-Greg Gumbel. Just to get the boring sleepy guy out of the booth and no longer doing Jet games, let's put Gumbel where he belongs, with the sleepy Jets on the sidelines. They can take midday kindergarten naps together. No, they can take Sunday 3 hour naps together. Gumbel will wait until kickoff then order the team to find their cubby partner, a place on the turf, and rest. After getting a hold of old games on DVD and listening to Dick Enberg, Keith Jackson and Howard Cosell provide play by play, I can't believe this marriage has gone on as long as it has. Actually , I can. So hiring Gumbel as head coach, may the only way to cut ties. This option may be a more honest match energy wise, to what we saw towards the end in 2008 on the field anyway.

5-Frank TV: The guy is a comedian. Imitates everyone. He's hilarious. While the Jets are blowing another game, or another season, Woody can force the stadium scoreboard camera operator to cut to our new head coach doing some of those imitations he does during EVERY commercial break. Franks hiring will certainly keep the drunk, moronic fan base which includes me, distracted enough in order to lessen the Bon Jovi concert -like decibel level of those "Lets go Dolphins chants," that echoed through the Meadowlands on Sunday.

These are the 5 truly best suited, truly the best FIT for the state of the Jets. a franchise that can't escape the vicious cycle of disarray and disappointment.

Our 100th post -- What about MY phone?

We don't always say this, but thank you for reading the Google mobile blog.

When we launched last year, we realized that we needed to better communicate what the Google mobile team was up to. Since then, we've been working hard to provide you with timely and useful information. We've also sought to keep our posts personal and engaging by introducing you to the Googlers behind our products, incorporating video, and enabling comments.

While we're thrilled that our readership has continued to grow, we want to make the mobile blog even more useful and interesting to you in 2009. We invite you to tell us how we can improve. What else do you want to see on the mobile blog? Are our posts too long or too short? What phones do you most want to read about? Please fill out this quick survey to let us know what you think.

In celebration of our 100th post, we're going to attempt to address one of the blog's most frequent comments: "What about MY phone?" This comment always seems to be tinged with such angst and passion. Trust us, as users we know your pain. But we also know the difficulty of developing software for disparate phones.

We've put together a video that gives you a behind-the-scenes glimpse of our "Sky Lab" that contains over 800 phones for developing, demonstrating, and testing purposes. Although we have so many phones, we currently can't make all of our products work on all of these phones -- we face the same challenges that every developer faces in the mobile industry: we have to choose. So this video also reveals two very different approaches for choosing devices in this industry... If you have any better ideas, let us know!



Of course, if you've been following our blog you may have noticed some patterns. We do like phones with good browsers and flat-rate data plans. Stay tuned to the Google mobile blog for more on this in the new year.
