Sales ban on Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be reconsidered

View all?

Samsung won permission Friday from the US Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington to have the three-month-long preliminary injunction against its Galaxy Tab 10.1 reconsidered, Reuters reported. The recent high-profile trial between Apple and Samsung left Samsung holding a huge bill for patent infringement of Apple?s iPhone and iPad products, but the Galaxy Tab injunction was based on a patent that the jury found had not been infringed by the Tab.

Since Samsung had appealed to a higher court to reverse the injunction decision in June before the jury?s decision in August, Judge Koh said she could not reverse her decision immediately after the trial. Now that the Court of Appeals has ruled in favor of a reconsideration, Judge Koh can rule on whether the sales ban stands.?Koh does not necessarily have to reverse her preliminary injunction, but she has said she would do so provided she regains jurisdiction.

After the jury found Samsung?s Galaxy Tab 10.1 was not in violation of Apple?s D504,889 patent?the patent the injunction was based on?Apple filed a motion seeking a new judgment that the Tab 10.1 "infringes and dilutes Apple?s protectable iPad Trade Dress; that the Tab 10.1 infringes the D?889 patent; and that Samsung?s accused smartphones dilute Apple?s combination iPhone Trade Dress." The jury found that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 did infringe Apple patents, but not the one the injunction was based on.?Samsung seems likely to win this particular point, because Koh previously said "the sole basis for the June 26 Preliminary Injunction no longer exists."

Since the landmark jury trial in August, Apple and Samsung have been filing smaller appeals and motions to try to work out more favorable post-trial rulings for each. Last week, Apple asked for $707 million in additional damages from Samsung on top of the $1.05 billion originally awarded by the jury. Samsung asked for a re-trial due to the time constraints on argument and testimony that the Judge had ordered during the trial. Samsung is also arguing that the jury committed misconduct.

PFT: Replacement ref said they were 'pawns'

Reggie+Bush+New+York+Jets+v+Miami+Dolphins+bnB-l520_SAlGetty Images

We cover all of the biggest injury stories throughout the day on Friday, but feel free to use this as a one-stop shop to catch up on those posts and any other names worth mentioning that we?ll throw in here every Friday.

Linebacker Thomas Davis is also questionable and guard Mike Pollak is out. For the Falcons, wide receiver Julio Jones is probable while cornerback Christopher Owens is the most notable of the four Falcons listed as out this week.

Bengals at Jaguars

The Bengals have issues at cornerback. Dre Kirkpatrick is still out and Jason Allen and Nate Clements are both doubtful. Leon Hall missed practice all week with a hamstring injury, but is listed as probable. Linebacker Daryl Smith is out for the Jags and they should get running back Rashad Jennings is likely to make his return to the lineup after being listed as probable.

Dolphins at Cardinals

Running back Reggie Bush and cornerback Richard Marshall are listed as questionable, but the expectation is that each of them will play this week.

He?s doubtful because of a hamstring injury and tight end Todd Heap and running back LaRod Stephens-Howling both earned the same designation.

Vikings at Lions

Both quarterbacks are probable after dealing with injuries this week. Linebacker Erin Henderson is out again for the Vikings thanks to a concussion, but defensive end Jared Allen is probable. Lions defensive tackle Corey Williams will miss the game after having knee surgery this week, running back Mikel Leshoure is questionable and safety Louis Delmas is doubtful as he makes an extended recovery from his own knee surgery.

Patriots at Bills

The Patriots will be without wide receiver Julian Edelman and tight end Aaron Hernandez. Tight end Rob Gronkowski, guard Logan Mankins and tackle Sebastian Vollmer are all questionable. The Bills hope to have running backs Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller, although both are listed as questionable following limited practice participation this week.

Saints at Packers

Raiders at Broncos

Oakland has ruled out tackle Khalif Barnes and cornerback Shawntae Spencer for a second straight game. Running back Darren McFadden is probable after being slowed by a shoulder injury this week and wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey, while eager to get back on the field, is doubtful thanks to the blow to the head and neck he took in last week?s win against the Steelers. The Broncos are fairly healthy with the exception of safety Quinton Carter, who is out, and guard Chris Kuper, listed as doubtful.

Chargers at Chiefs

Chargers cornerback Shareece Wright is out again this week while tackle Jared Gaither has climbed the ladder to questionable while dealing with his ever-present back injury.

Tight end Kevin Boss is out, running back Peyton Hillis is doubtful and three wideouts ? Dwayne Bowe, Steve Breaston and Dexter McCluster ? are all questionable.

49ers at Jets

The 49ers continue to list running back Brandon Jacobs and wide receiver Ted Ginn as questionable, just as they have before they?ve missed the team?s other games this season. Cornerback Darrelle Revis is out (and will be until his triumphant return for the Super Bowl) and wide receiver Stephen Hill is listed as doubtful, although you can go ahead and downgrade him based on Rex Ryan?s assessment of his chances of playing. Tight end Dustin Keller and linebacker Bryan Thomas, who have each missed the last two games, are questionable.

Seahawks at Rams

Seattle listed guard John Moffitt as doubtful and linebacker LeRoy Hill is questionable. The Rams will have another game-time decision with running back Steven Jackson and rookie defensive tackle Michael Brockers could make his regular season debut after missing the first three games with an ankle injury.

Polish Solidarity hero is reburied after mix-up

WARSAW, Poland (AP) ? Mourners on Friday bid a second farewell to Anna Walentynowicz, a legendary figure with Poland's Solidarity movement whose body was mistakenly buried in the wrong grave after her death in a 2010 plane crash.

The repeat funeral Mass for Walentynowicz in her hometown of Gdansk took place after her body was exhumed last week and DNA tests confirmed that it had been switched with another female victim of the crash in Russia that claimed 96 lives, including that of Poland's president.

A welder, crane operator and single mother, Walentynowicz was a fierce opponent of the communist regime. She was fired in 1980 from a Gdansk shipyard job as punishment for her political activism, which sparked workers' strikes that led to the formation of the Solidarity freedom movement under Lech Walesa. Today she remains a national symbol of the ultimately successful anti-communist fight, though a feud with Walesa resulted in her being overshadowed by him.

Speaking over her coffin, draped in the white-and-red national flag, mourners said they were bidding farewell to the "Mother of Solidarity" who consistently fought for workers' rights.

"We are bidding farewell to one of the greatest figures of our time, a person who played a significant role in Poland's history," said opposition leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski, twin brother of President Lech Kaczynski who was also killed in the crash.

"Even her death, her second burial is as unusual as she was unusual," he said.

The mix-up of Walentynowicz's body with another person has revived both deep divisions within Polish society and distrust of historic foe Russia.

A few people with the words "It was an assassination" written on Poland's national flag entered the church during the funeral Mass but were asked by Walentynowicz's grandson not to disturb the ceremony.

Russian experts who conducted postmortems of the victims made several errors in their reports, sparking the outrage of many of the victims' relatives. Russian authorities have said that any mistakes result from the fragmented nature of the bodies after the crash. Three exhumations carried out earlier this year confirmed the identities of the bodies.

Poland's chief prosecutor Andrzej Seremet has said that the mix-up in Walentynowicz's case occurred because the families had wrongly identified the bodies. Both families staunchly deny that.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk said he apologized for any mistakes that Polish officials might have made in the effort to help identify and bring the bodies back to Poland, following the nation's greatest disaster since World War II.

Groups linked to opposition leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski claim the crash was an assassination by the Russians, and the flawed Russian reports have added to the suspicions and distrust. They also say Tusk has not been firm enough with the Russians in demanding a greater role for Poland's investigators.

However, most Poles firmly reject the conspiracy theories and believe an official government report that says the crash was caused by human error and fog.

The plane crash occurred April 10, 2010, as the presidential delegation was about to land in Smolensk, Russia. The group was to honor Polish victims of mass murders by Stalin's secret security during World War II.

At least four more exhumations are expected this year over doubts concerning the identifications carried out in Moscow after the crash.

    Consolidation plus Mortgage loan Name
    The actual techniques of such a couple actions inform you of that. In relation to obtaining a personal bank loan regarding po?yczka bez bik operations, the financing itself can be used to lower established debt by way of consolidating the particular financial loans in concert into one personal debt.
    The benefit of that is which the overall cost is actually lessened. As an example, 3 financial loans of $3,1,000, $7,A thousand in addition to $10,A thousand possess 3 distinct interest rates and also several individual payment times.

    If you counseled me to tell the truth, we would must say that there have been instances when we would have liked funds, nevertheless could not seek a borrowing arrangement due to our bad credit record. We had arrived confident the indegent credit history suitable the software, even for the $5,1,000 unsecured loan, by using bad credit will be denied, do you know why take the trouble?

All that is required might be creative throughout what sort of procedure for finance is manufactured. The point that there are lots of mortgage loan options, and types with loan merchants also, would make this particular feasible.
    Individuals $5,Thousand isn?t a sums of money, and as a result, a personal loan of their sum is not a very big bet for your financial institution to look at. A little time to look at the different options will be definitely worth the efforts. Here are some guidelines to assistance with accomplishing this.
    Urgent situation Funds Rapid
    Normally, fiscal urgent matters tend to be regarding loan applications. However , the additional cash is required virtually straight away. Trying to get $5,000 loans together with kredyt bez bik is usually a tense knowledge of classic banking companies, nonetheless your payday loan is just not.
    Payday cash loans are generally of course to the back of future paycheck merely, so the authorization course of action ignores bad credit scores absolutely. Subsequently, the particular approval approach will be lightning quick, in addition to in a day, your money required is usually lodged inside your bill. Obviously, obtaining mortgage agreement despite bad credit thus speedily provides from it some penalties.
    To begin, interest rates are particularly excessive as the transaction phrase generally is prior to the future cash advance. As well, the credit control can be quite very low, typically all around $1,500. What this means is getting at any $5,1000 unsecured loan needs acquiring 3 or 4 effective payday advances. Some lenders may scholarhip $5,A thousand plus extend the idea of in order to 3 months, yet steer of your expenditure.
    A family group Mortgage loan
    Although the payday loan is certainly the most expensive choice obtainable, likely the most cost effective is actually a family members loan. This is due to lending options coming from members of the family usually entail little if any curiosity. Furthermore, obtaining a $5,500 personal bank loan together with bad credit put in at home.
    Your benefits include things like getting financial loan acceptance even with bad credit, considering the fact that commonly a loved one understands a obtain is usually to an authentic need, along with the borrower will be another person they do know plus trust. Bendable payment daily activities may also be quite typical, by using simple restructuring when the need arises.
    Having said that, irrespective of to whom a family member is actually, it is important to record each of the agreed the unsecured loan and to have appropriate functions sign the report. This really is firstly to be sure no-one can be puzzled, and second of all of which everything is crystal clear intended for lawful uses.

    UK services output bounces back in July

    LONDON (Reuters) - British services sector firms grew at their fastest pace in over a year in July as activity recovered after a public holiday hit business in June, official data showed on Friday.

    Services output rose by 1.1 percent in July, the biggest gain since May 2011, after a 1.5 percent drop in June, the Office for National Statistics said. Output was 0.7 percent higher than a year earlier.

    The services sector makes up more than three quarters of British GDP, and Friday's data suggests the economy made a strong start to the third quarter, after contracting by 0.4 percent in the second quarter of the year.

    July's month-on-month rebound adds to strong growth in manufacturing, making it likely that the economy will leave recession after three quarters of contraction.

    The bulk of ticket sales for the London Olympics will be booked in August, when the majority of events took place, though some are included in July's figures.

    The ONS also reported that output per hour across all sectors of the economy fell 0.9 percent in the second quarter, contributing to a 2.6 percent fall in productivity over the previous year. Unit wage costs rose 2.0 percent on the quarter, while unit labour costs edged up by 0.3 percent, the statistics agency said.

    Britain's weak productivity since the financial crisis has been a major puzzle for the Bank of England, and potentially poses inflation risks when the economy recovers.

    The ONS also said that following new international guidance, it was reclassifying the remainder of banks Northern Rock and Bradford & Bingley owned by the government as central government bodies rather than public sector corporations, as they were no longer actively trading.

    This means that they will add to general gross government debt, with knock-on impacts on the key measure of public sector net debt targeted by Britain's government, back-dated to 2010.

    The ONS said the changes would push up government gross debt by 53.4 billion pounds in 2010/11, reducing to a 37.4 billion pound increase in 2011/12.

    The change will also reduce the general government deficit by 740 million pounds in 2011/12. The changes will appear in public finances data from early 2013 onwards.

    Suitable Technologies introduces Beam, the remote presence device (hands-on)

    Suitable Technologies intros Beam, the remote presence device handson

    Telepresence is a booming business these days, with high speed wireless networks enabling plenty of folks to enjoy the pleasures of working (or attending class) from the comfort of home. While some such devices leverage the power of tablets or smartphones, the visual and audio quality such systems deliver often isn't up to corporate standards. Enter Suitable Technologies and its Beam remote presence device (RPD). As a spinoff of famed 'bot builder Willow Garage, the folks at Suitable figured they could provide a high-fidelity telepresence experience by building an RPD from scratch, and that's precisely what they've done with Beam. Its brain is a 1.3Ghz Intel Core i3 CPU and it moves around courtesy of dual brushless electric motors driven by an integrated car battery. That battery fills up in right around six hours using the Beam Dock, and the LED lamps underneath the screen shine whenever Beam is being used. Users, or "pilots" see where they're going via two Logitech HD webcams sporting custom lenses that grant near 180-degree views and zoom capability -- one's front-facing, and one points down for easy navigation in tight spaces. Connectivity comes courtesy of four WiFi antennas (two 2.4 GHz and two 5GHz) to ensure a solid connection at all times, while the seven microphones provide top-notch voice quality and noise cancellation. Oh, and there's a 17-inch monitor and a speaker on board to faithfully replicate what pilots look and sound like.

    We got a chance to meet the Beam's makers and take the RPD for a spin, so join us after the break to see a video of the thing in action and learn more about Beam's development.

    How Much Do You Care About How Twitter Measures Your Influence? [Chatroom]

    BuzzFeed is reporting that Twitter cofounder Ev Williams is interested in shaking up the way the company measures "reach". Instead of caring about follower count, he suggests, maybe Twitter should let you know how many people saw your tweet. More »

    The Engadget Interview (captured with Lumia 920): Nokia CEO Stephen Elop on WP8 and beyond

    The Engadget Interview Nokia CEO Stephen Elop shot with the Lumia 920

    Do you know what's better than one interview with Stephen Elop? Two interviews in one month. We'd barely recovered from yesterday's bout of nostalgia when we were given the opportunity to sit down with Nokia's CEO in his office at Nokia House. Better yet, we were allowed to record the discussion with a hand-held Lumia 920 prototype. The resulting video is remarkably stable. Full disclosure: the audio was recorded with a shotgun mic mounted on a Sony NEX-C3 camera.

    We talked about HTC's colorful "signature" Windows Phone 8X and 8S and what that means for the Nokia-Microsoft partnership. Next we asked if Nokia is planning to work with carriers to offer incentives for existing Lumia owners to upgrade to the company's 920 and 820 handsets. Finally, we discussed the evolution of PureView imaging technology from the 808 to the 920 and how Nokia plans to combine these building blocks in the future. Hit the break for our video interview.

    USU football: Utah State?s Zach Vigil named College Sports Madness WAC Defensive Player of the Week

    For the second-straight week, Utah State?s Zach Vigil has garnered national recognition as he was named College Sports Madness? Western Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Week following his performance in USU?s 31-19 road win at Colorado State this past weekend.

    Last week, Vigil was named an honorable mention national Linebacker of the Week by College Football Performance Awards (CFPA) following Utah State?s hard-fought 16-14 loss at No. 22 Wisconsin Saturday.

    Vigil, a 6-foot-2, 228 pound sophomore linebacker from Clearfield, Utah (Clearfield HS), had seven tackles (6-solo, 1-assist) to go along with a career-high three tackles for loss and a career-best two sacks against Colorado State this past weekend.

    On the season, Vigil ranks tied for third in the WAC and tied for 46th in the nation in sacks (0.75 pg), tied for fourth in the WAC and tied for 47th in the nation in tackles for loss (1.38 pg) and tied for 10th in the WAC in tackles (7.2 pg).

    Vigil ranks second on the team in tackles (29), is first in both tackles for loss (5.5) and sacks (3.0), is tied for second in quarterback hurries (2) and has one blocked kick, one forced fumble and one pass breakup on the season.

    Utah State (3-1) returns home this week to host future Mountain West Conference foe UNLV (1-3) in its annual Homecoming game on Saturday, Sept. 29, at 6 p.m. With its 3-1 record, USU has its best start to a season since the 1978 team won its first five games of the year.

    For USU football ticket information, contact the USU Ticket Office at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum or by calling 1-888-USTATE-1 or (435) 797-0305.

    Doug Hoffman is the assistant athletic director for Utah State University Athletic Media Relations.

    'SNL': Ann Romney rips GOP naysayers

    By Hal Boedeker, Staff writer
    8:16 a.m. EST, September 23, 2012

    "Saturday Night Live" this weekend ripped Mitt Romney on his taxes and his 47 percent comment. But the NBC show also defended the Republican presidential candidate by letting his wife, Ann (Kate McKinnon), blast GOP naysayers on "Weekend Update."

    "Do you really think this would be going better if you'd nominated someone else? Who? Rick Santorum?," "SNL" had Mrs. Romney saying. "Do you think you missed the boat with Newt Gingrich? If you think I'm unrelatable, check out Callista Gingrich. She's like a character from 'Mars Attacks.' "

    The "SNL" Ann Romney blasted Ron Paul as "a lunatic who doesn't understand how voting works." She said Rick Perry's name three times, and Perry (Bill Hader) showed up from under the desk. "If this race was so winnable, how come Jeb Bush, Chris Christie and Marco Rubio decided not to run?" the candidate's wife asked.?

    "SNL" took more swipes at Romney than Barack Obama. Blame bias if you like, but Romney had given the writers a lot of material in the last week. "Weekend Update" anchor Seth Meyers ridiculed Mitt Romney for paying a 14 percent tax rate -- "just a little less than restaurants add on for a party of six or more." How did Romney pay such a low rate? "He claimed 47 percent of Americans as dependents," Meyers said.

    Meyers also weighed in on speculation that Romney applied a self-tanner before appearing on Spanish-language TV. "Speculation? He looks like my dad's recliner," Meyers said.

    As for Obama, Meyers offered advice during the segment "What Are You Doing?" Meyers wondered why Obama said he couldn't change Washington from the inside.

    "Why are you saying anything during this Romney tailspin?" Meyers asked. "Don't do anything to take the focus off the Romney follies. Their campaign is getting crazier than the last season of 'Lost.' "

    The political jabs will draw most of the attention in the so-so show. Host Joseph Gordon-Levitt opened by tearing off his clothes and dancing a salute to the movie "Magic Mike." He also played a nightclub hypnotist and the son of the Dos Equis pitchman, "the most interesting man in the world." In the zaniest bit, Gordon-Levitt was a girl whose parents sang her introduction to a date.

    Jay Pharoah has emerged as the show's most valuable player after two episodes this season. He is the new Obama, although he didn't play the president this weekend. Rather, Pharoah was a very giddy Michael Strahan, who couldn't believe it was work to host with Kelly Ripa. Pharoah was sports analyst Stephen A. Smith, who repeatedly blasted Tim Tebow. "My hairline isn't receding. It's just trying to get away from my mouth," Smith said.

    "SNL" tried for some balance in the Romney and Obama jokes. But the show served a withering commercial about a tampon designed by the GOP.

    Coming soon: Daniel Craig will host the Oct. 6 show, which can spoof the first presidential debate.

    Fish eaters run lower risk of heart attack, despite some mercury content, study suggests

    ScienceDaily (Sep. 24, 2012) ? Eat fish, but avoid fish with the most pollutants. This is the conclusion drawn by a group of researchers at Ume? University in Sweden after having weighed the risks of mercury content against the advantages of healthful fatty acids.

    The work was done as part of an international collaborative effort.

    Fish is healthful food, and several studies have shown that people who eat fish have a lower risk of cardiovascular diseases than those who eat very little or no fish. At the same time, some fish contain environmental pollutants that can be hazardous to our health. One such pollutant that is suspected of increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease is methyl mercury, which is found in varying degree in different kinds of fish. If people eat fish with much pollutants, this would lead to increased risk of disease, but at the same time if people are overly cautious and eat too little fish, the risk of disease also increases.

    In order to attain a better understanding of what the golden mean might be, researchers at Ume? University, in collaboration with researchers from Finland and elsewhere, examined how the risk of heart attack (acute myocardial infarction) is contingent on the amount of omega-3 fats and mercury from fish that people have in their body. The content was measured in blood and hair samples from people that had previously participated in health studies in northern Sweden and eastern Finland. The Swedish blood samples were from the Medical Biobank in Ume?. Those who experienced a heart attack after the health check-up were compared with those who did not.

    The findings are now being published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (AJCN). It turned out that mercury was linked to increased risk, and omega-3 fatty acids to decreased risk, of having a heart attack. The increased risk from mercury was noticeable only at high levels of this environmental pollutant in the body and if the level of the protective omega-3 fatty acids was concomitantly low. In other words, what is important is the balance between healthful and hazardous substances in fish. The environmental pollutant in this study was mercury. For organic pollutants like PCB and dioxin, the problem complex is similar, but no study of this kind has yet been undertaken.

    The conclusion is simple: Eat fish, but avoid fish with the most pollutants. The Swedish National Food Agency recommends that people should eat fish 2-3 times a week, but their intake of predatory fish (e.g. pike, perch, pike-perch), which contain a great deal of mercury, should be limited (see link below). This study supports that recommendation. According to a recent study from the National Food Agency, 7 of 10 Swedes eat too little fish.

    The original Twitter? Tiny electronic tags monitor birds' social networks

    Friday, September 21, 2012

    If two birds meet deep in the forest, does anybody hear? Until now, nobody did, unless an intrepid biologist was hiding underneath a bush and watching their behavior, or the birds happened to meet near a research monitoring station. But an electronic tag designed at the University of Washington can for the first time see when birds meet in the wild.

    A new study led by a biologist at Scotland's University of St. Andrews used the UW tags to see whether crows might learn to use tools from one another. The findings, published last week in Current Biology, supported the theory by showing an unexpected amount of social mobility, with the crows often spending time near birds outside their immediate family.

    The study looked at crows in New Caledonia, an archipelago of islands in the South Pacific. The crows are famous for using different tools to extract prey from deadwood and vegetation. Biologists wondered whether the birds might learn by watching each other.

    The results, as reported by St. Andrews, revealed "a surprising number of contacts" between non-related crows. During one week, the technology recorded more than 28,000 interactions among 34 crows. While core family units of New Caledonian crows contain only three members, the study found all the birds were connected to the larger social network.

    The new paper is the first published study using the UW tags to record animal social interactions.

    "This is a new type of animal-tracking technology," said co-author Brian Otis, a UW associate professor of electrical engineering whose lab developed the tags. "Ecology is just one of the many fields that will be transformed with miniaturized, low-power wireless sensors."

    Biologists normally tag animals with radio transmitters that broadcast at a particular frequency, and field researchers use a receiver to listen for that frequency and detect when the animal is present. An encounter between small animals would only be recorded if the researcher was nearby.

    The UW system, called Encounternet, uses programmable digital tags that can send and receive pulses.

    "Encounternet tags can monitor each other, so you can use them to study interactions among animals," said co-author John Burt, a UW affiliate professor of electrical engineering. "You can't even start to do that with other radio-tracking technology."

    Other research groups are using the UW tags around the world. Researchers at the University of Windsor in Canada are using them to study mating behavior in Costa Rican long-tailed manikins; a researcher at Drexel University is using them to study the interaction between birds and army ants in Costa Rica; German researchers are putting the tags on sea lions in the Galapagos Islands to study their behavior as they pull up on beaches; and researchers in the Netherlands are studying the social behavior of great tits, a small woodland bird.

    "It's a big topic right now, the idea that animals have social networks," Burt said. He has been working with field biologists for the last three years to deploy the tags.

    "There are other tags that can do proximity logging, but they're all very big and for larger animals. None is as small as Encounternet ? or even near to it."

    The smallest of the UW tags weighs less than 1 gram (0.035 ounces) and can be used on animals as light as 20 grams (less than an ounce), about the weight of a sparrow. Researchers attach the tags to birds with straps that degrade and harmlessly fall off after the battery dies. The tag records nearby pulses, and the signal strength gives an estimate of the other animal's distance.

    A typical study using the system includes a few dozen tags and between 10 and 100 fixed base stations. When tagged animals pass a base station the data is transmitted wirelessly from the tag to the base station, and from there to the Internet. Researchers can also reprogram the tags remotely ? for example, they can look at initial results to see when there are few encounters happening, and turn the battery off during those times to conserve power.

    Burt completed his doctorate at the UW in 2000, with a dissertation on birdsong communication and learning. He wished that there was a way to automatically monitor bird interactions in the wild, and in 2005 joined forces with Otis, an expert in small, lightweight, low-power electronics. Burt managed the project to develop the tags, with funding from the National Science Foundation, as a research scientist in Otis' group.

    This fall they founded Encounternet LLC in Portland, Ore., where Burt now lives. He is working to add a GPS component to record the location of encounters, and to add an accelerometer and other sensors that could detect an animal's behavior.

    "People are excited about this because for the first time, it allows them to study smaller animal interactions and social networks on an incredibly fine scale," Burt said. "Social networks are turning out to be key to understanding many animal behaviors. People say Encounternet is the only thing they can find that can collect that information."
