AC you are, while AM is what you should be. The group put together what they thought would be the results of the state's plan, and put together what they thought the results would be if their ideas were used. Neither of them are/were/intended to be engineering plans, nor did they require an engineering degree to design or draw up. It is 2011. The ability to look stuff up and get an extremely narrow and in-depth understanding of a single issue, especially in something as simple as traffic flow and traffic light placement, has never been easier. While an entire city full of traffic light placement and timing is complicated, looking at a data set for amount of travel over a stretch of road and examining the feeder roads/residences/retail surrounding and making a good assumption on how it would change if A, B or C were done, is not difficult at all. Give me a week and I could do it, including drafting all the various changes to a level I could get an engineer to almost rubber stamp it.
Typical NC bureaucracy in action. Both the DOT and the licensing board. All five of my professional licenses are issued and "supervised" by idiots who can't do the work themselves and make a living, and and the work I do under three of them are subject to review and oversight by morons who are either political hires or failed contractors with political connections. Perfect case in point. Greensboro is in Guilford county. The county has an inspection department for refrigeration work done in the county, while the city has an inspections department for refrigeration work done in the city. Both departments use the state building codes, with no amendments or other crap. What the code says is what the county/city codes are. If I install two identical walk-in coolers, one in Guilford county, and the other one 20 feet over the line and in Greensboro, and install them both in the same exact manner, one will fail. In Guilford county if the inspector sees any silicone caulk around the camlock covers (little things that look like smooth metal buttons on the walls and ceilings of walk-ins that cover where the camlock holes are at) he will fail it. Conversely, if a Greensboro city inspector, using the same state codes, does not see the caulk, he will fail it. The Electrical inspectors are the same, yet worse, as each one as their own personal likes and dislikes, and you do it their way or get failed. And if I should protest something and submit documents that I drew using standard architectural or engineering symbols, nicely plotted with all "projections" and such calculated correctly, am I going to be investigated also? Fucktard politicians now want to allow failass bureaucrats to stamp out smart people. Or hell, just plain competent people.
Nice idea but it doesn't work. The scan also cancels the ticket for sell. In my state each ticket is scanned prior to sell, along with each roll of tickets being "activated" by scanning the wrapper barcode. So once you set in the store scanning tickets, you have to cash the winning tickets at that store (it is no good anywhere except that store and the state lottery offices once it has been scanned) and the store will have a crapton of losing tickets which have to be paid for and can not be sold. Good luck convincing your manger and his manager that it wasn't you on the video scanning those rolls of tickets.
I advertise HVAC/R services on Craigslist all the time. Free and only takes a minute or two. And I usually get at least a call or two a week. Which is the best ROI I have ever had for any advertising. Of course it helps that I am willing to advertise my prices for labor and the prices of refrigerants and common services, which the industry frowns upon around my neck of the woods. Protip, when you need "freon" in your system and most companies are selling R-22 for $65.00 a pound, and Billy Bob's HAVC Services is selling it for $40.00 a pound, he is not selling stolen refrigerant, nor used refrigerant. He just decided that $40.00 bucks a pound, plus labor, plus travel charge was a good return. Especially since a 30 pound jug of R-22 was $164.00 Friday when I grabbed another jug from the supply house. Yeah, they rip you off that much. Costs ~$5.00 bucks per pounds, and sells for a minimum of $40.00 (I was working for a company 12 years ago that was selling R-22 for $48.00 a pound then, with a 30 pound jug costing ~$60-65 bucks a jug.)
I personally would set up false job/career openings, tailored to draw decently paid professionals to submit a resume. Not ultra-high end folks, who would most likely be targeted by head hunters, but people making 65-90k a year or so. Get the resumes, do a little research, and then contact the best candidates for phone interviews. Use two different folks doing two interviews, then have a third person contact them as "HR" and get the pertinent data, SS numbers, full names, etc etc. Really smart folks would invest the time and energy to set up a "real business" a few years earlier, keeping some always going with press releases, news stories, etc. That way when Joe Sucker googles this company who is planning on hiring him, he will get some hits and see they been around a few years. Do it smart, hit 20-30 folks for each "opening", and quickly nail them for the most money possible using their IDs to take out loans and credit cards, and you could net an easy 100k just scamming 5k using each ones' ID. Could probably keep it going for several years before it became the "newest" scam to hit the TV screen also.
How about passing a law that states no one may sweep, mop, dust or clean any building because of possible evidence? And don't forget to make it illegal to wash or destroy any clothing because it may contain evidence to a possible crime. Not to be an ass, but catch them in the act, catch them through stings or give the fuck up. Ain't no business of the government what I am looking at on line, and the fact they want to hold those records, forcing the ISPs to pay for it (which in turn forces me to pay for it) is fucking retarded just like GWB and Obama's love child would be.
You could sling drugs. Serves a valuable purpose in society by keeping the unruly lower classes mostly sedated (intellectually if not physically) while providing a false hope of betterment by their desire to become successful drug dealers, which in turns feeds the prison/industrial system with new slaves, while preventing the old ones from making any changes when they get out, leading back to their upcoming re-enslavement. One of the best self-feeding loops I have ever seen.
No, but if you take this, the flying little drone that can fly through moving hoops, the little drones that built a structure, the advances in "thinking AI" the cameras and processing system for the prison cameras that can read moods and draw conclusions from body language and associations of different people, what we have is the beginning of the end of humans. I for one welcome our soon to be arriving self-aware mechanical overlords.
Lol at that. Blizz backtracked because with the way they have let Street fuck up WoW, they know Starcraft is the only thing that is going to make them money in the future.
Yeah. Wish we got as much of our domestic power in the USA from nukes as the frogs did. Oh, that's right, carbon emissions are bad, wind power is bad, water power is bad. Geothermo power is bad. Fossil fuels are bad. nuclear waste is bad. Fucktard envirotards. Won't be appy until the human race is dead, because then Mother Earth can live free and unsullied. Cocksucking POSes, hope they all get raped by niggers.And their moms too.
Bad idea there. I'd rather my neighbor be a murderer, than a sex offender (of the rapist/child molesting type0; other than thieves, sex offenders have the worse recidivism, and unlike thieves, can not be broken of their fixations. If you question that, just stop and see if you can turn off your favorite sexual fantasy and/or orientation. So they can't be cured, they can't be broke and they can't be trusted not to reoffend. The death penalty is the kindest option. And there is a guy in my town who has two convictions for indecent liberties with a minor, separate crimes (as in molested, went to jail, got out, molested again, went to jail, and got out). I saw him recently at a store. He has started a xian ministry since his release. He is working on reaching today's misguided and unguided youths. And if I had shot him, I'd be the "bad" guy.
Logic? On my/.?!?!?!?!? When I worked for other folks doing HVAC/R, I was required, not expected, to have the tools necessary to do the job. This included such common things as screwdrivers, pliers, wire strippers, VOA meters, thermometers, gauges, vacuum pump, reclaim machine, and such more dedicated stuff like Bacharach testing equipment for oil furnaces(about 2k USD right now), gas welding equipment, RMS meters, flow meters for air flow testing, etc etc etc. And all this was supposed to be paid for making 18-25 bucks an hour. I lack the ability to feel any compassion for some sit-on-his-ass executive pulling down 75k and up a year of tax money having to provide his own cell phone.
Yeah, got to agree about feeding the children and the disabled. Healthy adults? Fuck them, let them work or starve. I also believe if you can't feed your children, they should be taken and raised in crèches or given to folks who can and will take care of them.
The real facts are that the RIAA and MPAA found out folks were calling in requests to radio stations and looking up theater times, both attempts to pirate movies and music. They quickly put a halt to this.
Mostly white, 30-40 year old appearing staff. Everyone polite, and well spoken, but not talkative. No extremes, as in no ultra-short haircuts, but no pony tails and piercing either. No visible tats on anyone, and, which is strange, no secretary nor any place for a secretary. There is a front door, locked with blinds over it, a side door, a loading bay door and a enclosed ramp with the entrance door at the side of the building. And I live in a fairly Podunk town, in the south. Been doing the work there for almost 12 years, after a former boss closed shop and recommended me to them for their service needs. On the article topic, I have built three grow rooms for "customers" and helped another guy design one, and supplied him with all the equipment, but he built it himself at his private location. A large walk-in cooler shell, with a AC system, makes an excellent grow room, and prevents most of the odor problems.
Stupid AC. You are taking a substance, setting it on fire, and sucking the resulting smoke and other substances down into your lungs. It makes you cough. That alone tells me that it ain't probably "good" for you. And I fully support the legalization of all drugs, not just marijuana. I think you should be able to go buy a ounce of pot, a fifth of booze, 30 pills and a few rocks of crack, some LSD, and PCP, along with antibiotics, and other stuff like cyanide, if you chose to do so as an adult.
I do work for a business in my town. It has a emergency generator, a secondary generator for HVAC/R and lights, and a tertiary generator for the -30F freezer. The stuff in the walk-in cooler (36F), the walk-in freezer (0F) and the other walk-in freezer(-30) (reachable only by going through the cooler and 0F freezer) are all small boxes and insulated containers marked with bio-hazard symbols. They keep a rotating temp chart that if it varies by more than 3F in an hour period, they call me for immediate service and inspection. And when I asked them what was in the boxes, they said "stuff". When I asked abut the temp requirements, they said the "stuff" gets unstable above 40F. The company name is very generic. The staff, about 30 or so, don't wear name tags. There checks are drawn on a local bank. And when I google them, there is no information other than their phone number and address. That's the "I don't know the whole frickin story" I am interested in. Oh, and they have never questioned any of my bills, or prices. I show up, verify the equipment is functioning within parameters (Amp draw, operating pressures, etc) and give them a bill. They write me a check then and there, no matter if it is 2pm on a Monday, or 3am on Christmas Eve (yeah, called me three years ago because the temp varied by 4 degrees F at approximately 11pm.)

You can steal lot more with a pen than with a gun, and even more if you can order folks with pens to do your stealing for you.

I am never asked for ID when using a credit card, unless I am renting a vehicle. And that has included some charges well over 4k.
Don't worry, the government is working on making that mandatory.

And they are not as smug nor as know-it-all either on /b/.
