  1. OTT Defination on DirecTV to Launch Android TV-Based OTT Set-Top Box (variety.com) · · Score: 1

    OTT means "Over The Top". Netflix is a provider of OTT services. As is DirecTV Now. DirecTV requires a satellite, so it's using in house wiring rather than going Over The Top of existing wiring.

  2. I'm tried nothing and .... on Ask Slashdot: Best Option For a Touring Band With Mobile Data? · · Score: 1

  3. Re:USA becomes UK in... on Obama Sides With Bush In Spy Case · · Score: 1
    He's right on for gun control. http://www.whitehouse.gov/agenda/urban_policy/ Go down to "crime and law enforcement"

    Address Gun Violence in Cities: Obama and Biden would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent.

    I suppose nothing. I saw the word suing and it just pissed me off at that word. No one wants to take the time to be level headed and work things out... lawyers do all the talking.

    I work at a very large casino company with more than a handfull of hotels and several thousand hotel rooms, not exactly mid-sized, but the info may still be relevent to you.

    We use Agilysys's Lodging Management Software aka LMS. I believe Agilysys has a price range that may suite your needs. It has all the features you mention, and if it doesn't, they can assist in adding in modules that can do what your looking for.

    Hope this helps.
