I have reviewed an App for my iPhone called myfitnesspal. I have reset my weight and will now try to monitor my eating and exercise. So far I have had 2 cups of coffee.
I have located my book "The 2nd Law" by P. W. Atkins which provides a description of the second law of thermodynamics. This should help me appreciate Penrose's "The Cycles of Time".
A good day's play. I downloaded the BirdBrain software and played with it awhile before deciding that my own Filemaker Pro database was better suited to my needs. I then began modifying the format so I will be able to prepare reports listing my Alberta, Canada, USA, North America, Australia, Mexico, Panama, Central America and Global finds. There is still a lot of work to be done filling in some of the data such as the order and family for each bird as well as the habitat. I also found a website that provided a checklist for Alberta birds. It lists 414 different birds. My database indicates that we have seen 152 so there is lots of fun ahead. It also indicates that we saw 81 different birds in Mexico in 2007. But I have not updated the database to include our trip to Panama in 2009. I will see if I can review the few occasions when we spotted a new bird in Alberta or the USA during the last 3 years. This may take some time.
