Every time I'm looking for a red light camera I'm not looking for crossing pedestrians.
Make the decision to stop when you see the light turn yellow. Problem solved.
Every time I'm looking for a speedtrap I'm not watching the road.
Drive within about 5 mph of the speed limit. Problem solved.
Every time I'm watching for a cruiser sneaking up behind me (marked and unmarked) I'm not looking forward.
You shouldn't be looking forward 100 percent of the time anyway. Some of your attention should be on your rear- and side-view mirrors so that you have complete situational awareness.
If I were less concerned about getting a goddamed ticket I'd probably be a safer driver overall (even if it means I speed more or run more red lights).
If you speed more or run more red lights, you are, by definition, not a safer driver.
Most lights are timed. Watch the "walk" sign on the intersection: when it changes to a flashing "don't walk," that means the light is going to turn yellow in the next 15-20 seconds. When it changes to a solid "don't walk," the light usually turns yellow within one or two seconds.
No. No, there shouldn't. There also shouldn't be disclaimers that "this coffee can burn your ass," "don't point this gun at your face" or "don't use this curling iron to stir your bathwater while it's plugged in."
If organizations see pen and paper as the only alternative, then they're probably getting the quality of IT support that they're paying for.
Don't worry, only those of us actually earning income will be saddled with the bill. Remember, to each according to his needs and from each according to his abilities.
If you don't like government-provided services, get the fuck off the Internet.
If that what that was, I hate to break it to you guys, but the movement was a huge failure. At least so far. Besides the Authorities toughening security, it was business as usual.
I'm not surprised. You want an effective protest on Wall Street? Clog up the place at 7:30 a.m. on a weekday. That's how to get noticed.
When a technology is ready and feasible, marketplace forces will ensure its rapid adoption if it is, in fact, superior as claimed.
Bullshit. Do you think private industry would have placed a man on the moon 42 years ago? Do you think private industry would have developed the Internet on its own?
"Marketplace forces" are quick to assimilate spun-off government technology as their own. But when you need a project that's going to change the world, the government is precisely whom you turn to.
I find it strange that Guy Fawkes idiot ends up being a hero or a symbol of freedom/anarchy/whatever. Guy Fawkes was not out to promote any sorts of liberties, he wanted to replace a Protestant monarch with a Catholic monarch. He failed at that, failed at achieving any aims at all, and so he's a hero because he's a reminder of no matter how badly you screw things up, someone is always a worse screw up than you.
Maybe that's why he was EpicFailGuy on 4chan before he actually became the "face" of Anonymous.
Is that anonymous ONLINE person running his own fiber, or is he relying on Corporate people to handle the "online" part for him?
Guess corporations are good for something, after all.
Yeah -- they're good for siphoning off the federal tax money they got to lay that fiber and sitting on it. Nice try, troll.
those L points will be in high demand for planetary relay satellites, as no matter where any other planet is in its orbit relative to earth's orbit, at least one earth L point should be in view... so what do we want there, sensitive receivers or big ole transmitters?
Or we could split them up: One Lagrange point for transmitters, one for receivers?
For that matter, just report him to the state bar for unethical behavior. He doesn't own the trademark, nor the copyright, and he's acting in bad faith.
And you happened to miss the bright blue-and-green.jpg on the right side of the page that says, "Learn more about the cleanup and safe disposal of compact fluorescent light bulbs"? You could've saved yourself the replacement cost of a carpet with a little attention to detail.
A brief search of the Snopes website via Google turns up information that swats the majority of your disinformation: Light Fingered. It includes step-by-step EPA guidelines for cleaning up a broken CFL on either a hard or carpeted surface. At no point in the guidelines does the EPA recommend getting rid of the carpet or even the clothes you were wearing when you were "exposed" to the bulb.
Your son is more at risk from the fish he eats -- and the fish your wife ate while pregnant -- than he is from that incidental exposure.
The later was useless to me, as my entire presence for decades is based on me, not my real name (which happens to co-exist with a celebrity, making it useless).

I used the page to report him for copyright violations, citing one of the many sites he plagiarized.
2600. You can get it via subscription, or you can buy it at your local Barnes & Noble.

Not necessarily. If you use compact fluorescent bulbs, then you're generating about the same amount of light without the heat, so overall, you save.
"There should be a law!"
No. No, there shouldn't. There also shouldn't be disclaimers that "this coffee can burn your ass," "don't point this gun at your face" or "don't use this curling iron to stir your bathwater while it's plugged in."

Winners go home and fuck the prom queen.
There were a lot of winners at my high school way back when.
So, they're basically the same as a good number of the troops actually in theater, then.
... it's obvious they don't want people playing Atari games ...
Well, I for one am happy to oblige.

There are real plusses and minuses to anonymity ...
Just no Google Pluses. *Rimshot!*

In a word? Vectors.
If it were me I'd say, "Mr. Lucas, we can probably win, but there's a small chance that the court will rule the armor isn't a sculpture.
Retreat? In our hour of triumph? I think you overestimate their chances!
And how is the U.S. getting people up to those modules these days? Oh, right.

Ah, well, in that case, it's all good. :)

Let me guess: Michael Bolton?
Bring on the 5v supercomputer!
Pah. Wake me when they get the requirement down to 1.1 volts. I'm not going to be happy until my supercomputer can fit into a potato!
