Note that that the headline says the bill would eliminate Overtime, whereas the summary says Overtime Pay. I'm all for eliminating forced overtime, but overtime should be paid. Otherwise, you'll lose the good IT staff, and that can decrease the productivity of the whole organization. Isn't having 5 employees accomplishing 10% more work within a 40 hour week worth paying an IT technician for an extra 3 hours of work?
I also wouldn't want to see a fire in one of these. I suspect it's bad enough trying to climb down 60 floors in an emergency. Can you imagine trying to climb *up* 60 floors when the building is on fire?
In his opinion, he may think that having health insurance will encourage them to get preventative medicine that prevents the emergency room visit. An ounce of prevention, yadda yadda yadda.
Until they do that, then yes, it is theoretically safe to return wallets. Cyber attackers have been dropping poisoned media for years, but people haven't learned.
*nod* A still camera shouldn't be used for a red light system, unless it's supplemented by a video camera. The video could be reviewed by a human to verify things such as correct plate ID or extenuating circumstances.
While the image is just a vehicle, the owner should know who was driving the vehicle at the time. As such, I could see fines being OK, but nothing that goes on the owner's record. The owner can get the fine reimbursed from whoever actually ran the light.
As for how one knows if the camera is installed correctly, the field of view should include the traffic light. Then the video can show the light changing, and the vehicle entering the intersection.
WRT timing, that isn't as simple. The only thing I can think of to do would be to remind people that it's better to run the light and fight it in court, than to get rear-ended. That's not an easy task, however.
However, all of this costs. Has anyone checked the data to see if the rear-end collisions are "cheaper" than t-bone collisions? (E.g. less medical expense, less time recuperating, etc...)
The development of an *overpriced* legal online market is impossible. Make a fairly priced legal online market, and I'll be there, as I am with Amazon's MP3 store.
I saw Thor in 3D and was really distracted by the poor 3D. I was still charged $12.50 for the privilege of not enjoying the show. Now they can't be bothered to get back to 2D correctly? The local theaters won't be getting my money again soon.
I'm still happy with my PS2. I have no interest in taking the chance of spending $300+ on a new console and game, when I have no confidence I'll find a game I like. After all, there are no returns once the packages are open...
Dropped expanded cable a couple years ago: saves $40 a month. Netflix gets us movies and TV shows we missed. We use MythTV to record broadcast shows, using an HD Homerun for the tuner. Yes, I did have to build an HTPC, but even that was less than $400. So, I've paid all my hardware expenses a year ago. It's all working great.
MythTV is a little difficult to setup & troubleshoot as a newcomer, but I'm learning.
I would reduce my data plan, but the next option down is 1.5Mb. I'd save 30% a month, but lose 90% of the bandwidth. If my cable company every let me get the data plan *without* having to pay for broadcast cable, I'd switch to an antenna in an instant.
Purchased the MP3s from a popular site. Converted to raw audio ("lame --decode -t [files]"). "cat eclipse.raw >> brain_damage.raw". Convert back to MP3.

And here I assumed the first rule of NDA was that you do not talk about NDA.

13. Also an amusing character on House.
...what would you do?

Are they trying to be nice and return the stick to the owner? This is a case of being "too nice".
Is it plain curiosity?
Just chuck the thing in the electronics disposal bin.
Or, OP *is* the RIAA, looking for a way to determine legality of the contents of an MP3 collection.
Unfortunately, I actually meant computer trojans, not the prophylactic.
Nope. Trojans on .trojan!
TFA just says they left. TFA specifically says it is unknown whether it was a layoff or they resigned. The word "fire" isn't on the page.

Shouldn't he be abolishing them, not promoting them?
Sounds good. I've got a list of 35 media items (audio & video) I'd like to purchase. Seeing this, I'm deleting the list & going without.

*nod* If I may make a car analogy, this professor's analogy is like most of the car analogies seen here.

Unfortunately we won't here that good line said in 3D for another decade...
Finally, someone's found my marbles!

According to a report on TV, this is would only be for Elective surgery. The BusinessWeek article doesn't mention Elective until the last sentence.
