1st question:I have a watch and there is a setting about lunitidal intervals.I have done a search in google about this but I didn't find anything at all.Does anybody know/can calculate the number of this?I live in Greece(Athens).
2nd question:Maemo 5 SDK is like simple maemo 5 expect for the fact that it contains some additional features for developing new programs?What I would like to know is that if any program from apps catalogue can be install(even the unrelated with developing),if it updates too(simple maemo 5 has an update for February,if I'm not wrong,does maemo 5 sdk has one too for this month?Is it the same update or something different?)and if generally it is the same with the simple maemo 5 with some additional features.

2nd question: maemo 5 sdk is a desktop environment (program if you want) which enables you to write and compile programs for the N900 (or other Maemo devices) it's not an OS for the device
I don't have the answer to your first question though.

lunitidal: lunar + tides (waves).

Tides are (not only, but mostly) caused by the Moon's gravity pull lowering the gravity reading on Earth if the Earth-Moon trajectory happens to bisect where you live. Basically, it means you weigh less, so water can rise and it creates the tides. Because the world isn't a perfect sphere (and more specifically, because the Moon doesn't hover each square inch of the planet uniformly), lunitidal intervals change over the whole planet.

I have attached a computation of all the moon rises and sets for 2010 in Athens (long. 37h 57m; lat. 23h 42m). The high point of the moon is between moonrise and moonset (so for example, today the moonrise will happen at 22:05, and will set at 09:19 tomorrow, thus moon up will be at (11 hours 14 minutes / 2 + moonrise) 3:42).

The next step is to look up the tide times for your area. Usually you can get this information in local newspapers, because that website is for Volos, which is what, 300km away from Athens? So get local times to be more accurate.

The lunitidal interval is the difference from moon up until the first high tide after moon up. 3:42 to 13:42 is 10 hours on the dot.

PS: I'm doing all this from memory, so google around and try to find some more information regarding the subject.

Well, the world might be a big place, but the longer you spend searching it, the more likely you are to find someone like you

Nope, but Greek isn't very hard to understand.

And you're welcome
