Some criminals are walking around vehicles with a cell phone in hand, acting like they are talking to someone and using the light on their phone to look for property in their car to steal. Look for strange vehicles driving through the neighborhood or sitting in front of the house with their engine running.

When talking about the motion of charge current, you can think of the electrons as acting like a swarm of bees moving in one direction. Within that swarm, individual bees might be colliding, but momentum is conserved with each collision so that the total motion of the swarm is unaffected. When talking about the motion of spin current, the electrons act more like a swarm of honey bees and a swarm of bumble bees trying to move through one another. As the bees in these two populations collide, there is an exchange of momentum that slows the relative motion of each. Eventually both swarms may move in a single direction, but the overall effect has been a drag on their collective motion.

The talk of winning our share is not the easy one of disengagement and flight, but the hard one of work, of short as well as long jumps, of disappointments, and of sweet success.

Most of the time I played by myself. Even then I was a loner, and I have stayed a loner all my life. [It] can make a man seem a little distant or aloof -- but it has helped pull me through some tight spots and hard times.

The key to prevent crimes, home burglaries, rape, robberies and vehicle theft in a community is if people are aware of what is going on with suspicious activities. They are the eyes and ears, they live there 24 hours, seven days a week, and they know what is normal and not normal.

When we have the person on the line, we will ask for more information of the vehicle, what does it look like, what direction is it moving, how many suspects are in the car. They can remain Mr. or Mrs. Anonymous and at no point will we identify the person that called. We may ask for a name and phone number to get more follow-up information.
