Sure wish Ashley and Evets were right on this one. Maybe if insurance companies did not have to pay out for their policy holders' stupidity (or at least when their policyholders ignore the law), insurance costs would not be so high.   more ›

I suppose he came in the door with the hood over his face. This problem can be easily corrected. We have simple cameras that can recognize a face to focus on it. Put a camera at the entrance and only let someone in if the camera can recognize (and photo) a face.   more ›
