DVRs for Cop Cars

AEton writes "News.com is reporting that IBM is developing digital video recorders for cop cars. The systems involve a digital video camera and reusable hard drives which police officers will take with them on their shifts; centralized servers with up to 3.5 TB of storage will hold recordings. The cameras continuously record and cache old video in a "Tivo-like" fashion; tapes will start from three to five minutes before the cop turned on the recorder. Unbiased, high-quality recording could have a compelling social effect; and at the very least, we're headed for HDTV Cops."

    The mother-in-law stopped unexpectedly by the recently married
    couples' house. She rang the doorbell and stepped into the house to
    see her daughter-in-law standing naked by the door.

    Soured by all of this romantic stuff, the mother-in-law left. On
    the way home, she thought about the "LOVE DRESS" and got an idea.
    When she got home, she undressed, showered, applied her best per-
    fume, and waited by the door for her husband to come home.

    Finally, the pickup truck drove up the drive way, and she took
    her place by the door. The father-in-law opened the door, and
    immediately saw his wife naked by the door.

    "What are you doing," he asked.

    "This is my love dress," his wife replied.

    "Needs ironing," he replied.

    Even if you did not appreciate his work you have to recognize his impact on the world. Truly an American TV...icon he will be missed.

    You made all the CowboyNeal stare
    Those lips and your brown eyes
    And the sexy hair
    I shake shake my thing
    I make the world want you
    Tell your Trolls you'll be back
    I wanna see what you can do.

    What would it take for you to just leave with me
    Not trying to sound conceited but me and you were meant to be
    You're a sexy guy, I'm a nice girl
    Lets turn this dance floor into our own little nasty world

    Trolls
    Sometimes a girl just needs one
    Trolls
    To love her and to hold
