Video used right - Red Light Running Enforcement

  You want compelling video - watch this site.

RedSpeed Illinois is the only company that has merged advanced
wireless computer technology with the security industry to deliver
an ideal solution to improve your police and fire departments’
capacity to monitor your community and more quickly respond to
emergency calls for assistance.  An communities have responded.

My interest IP Surveillance. Many organization(s) need to adress
their current system.  Cable? Tape? Not live or internet accessible.

We must come to grips with one fact of life.  Unemployment means
crime.  An the safety of others should lead any discussion.  We
must look beyond the traditional “goofing off” of employees.

If your facility is atleast 75,000 sq/ft you have a minimum (2) blind spots.
If the value of your company is based on inventory,{cooper turns a buck} capital assets must be secured.  Multipule locations {factory,engineers}can now have a central “mobile” location and enhance your Safety Awarness Program.  And who better than police, fire an emergency people, directly connected with.   Business nows has the perfect vehicle to participate with the community in building safer working envirnoments.  Does not that qualify for an Insurance Discount?

Trust me watch the video, I’ll never approach a intersection the same again.
You people are nuts out-there….

Nokia 6500 - why now?

After reviewing traffic reports,  I’m sure our author (Mazyar) is throwing his hands in air in dis-belief.  What’s all the activity around Nokia 6500?   the blog went crazy on something Mazyar posted way back in June 2007……

One connection, since that posting Nokia has made tremendous efforts in moving forward to enhance an enterprise able unit which iPhone still is not.

An overlooked part in this advancement is  Opera Mobile 9.5 - a mobile browser.

The recent World Mobile Congress in Barcelona, Spain gave many the insight into how mobile will (and is..) the next new frontier.

The Case for Meta Data

February, 2008-In a flurry of recent cases in state and federal court, the CyberControls litigation consulting team have been burning the midnight oil over a wide array of electronic discovery issues particularly in the area of metadata production or lack there of.

The FRCP Rule 34 has created the proverbial paradigm shift in the way that requesting parties need to pay considerable attention to electronically stored information (ESI). One aspect of electronic discovery is the importance of communicating with the producing party even before the Rule 16 (b) and Rule 26 (f) meet and confer session that all ESI is requested to be produced in its natural form with all accompanying metadata. In a recent case, D’Onofrio v. SFX Sports Group, Inc., 2008 WL 189842 (D.D.C. Jan. 23, 2008), the plaintiff sought production of certain business plans. The producing party complied by producing printed copies of the specified business plans. The plaintiff submitted a modified request for production of the same documents in electronic form but did not specify metadata. The appellate judge evaluated the sequence of events including numerous production requests and the producing partys steady resistance in complying with the courts instructions to arrive at some agreement on the discovery disputes over the span of many months. The ruling that followed did not go well for the requesting party. The court concluded that the plaintiffs request for production did not specify that the requested business plan in question be produced solely in its original format with accompanying metadata.

In our opinion, the courts have perpetuated the misconception that metadata is to be regarded as something deserving of its own, detached consideration. The metadata associated with an electronic document is not evident when a document is produced in a printed form or as a scanned object in a .tiff file. This may be in part, why it is that judges and lawyers have perceived metadata as something separate from the main body of a document or e-mail? Surely, the visible contents of a document or e-mail message should be sufficient to meet the production obligation? Not exactly. This why it is critical to remember to communicate from the very start that you as the requesting party are seeking all electronic documents and e-mails in an electronic form that includes all accompanying metadata in a readable, searchable form. It makes good sense to begin making this point perhaps with a preservation notice that precedes the pretrial meet and confer session where continued emphasis of the form of production including metadata is reiterated.
