Phantom Alert – The Latest Weapon Against Speed Traps

Posted in Hot Products, Technology on March 30th, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

The next time you’re cruising down the road over the speed limit, you could be pulled over for speeding, or you could have Phantom Alert installed in your GPS system. The new Phantom Alert software will actually warn you if you are driving into a speeding trap, if a speed dectector is nearby, or if a traffic camera up ahead. But will this program be classified in the same category as radar dectectors, or will it help slow people down? In several states radar detectors are currently illegal, but will that apply to this new software?

Designers of a controversial new software say it can help you find red light and speed cameras, and even DUI checkpoints. the software is download into your GPS that claims to help you avoid those cameras. Supporters of the cameras say they decrease accidents, but opponents say they’re little more than money makers for cities sucking millions of dollars out of the economy. Authorities worry Phantom Alert will encourage people to continue their poor driving habits without feeling the sting of a costly ticket. But, the designers of the software argue it is they who are making the roads safer. What do you think?

I just got my SAT scores in the mail and it does not have the final score anywhere on the paper. I got my scores for each subject like math, writing, essay, multiple choice, and critical reading. My question is how do you figure out the final score from these individual scores? Do I just add them up? Help!

The outrageously sexy bikini pants from Sanna’s Brazil Fashion. Sanna’s Brazil is a Japanese clothing company, and these bikini jeans clearly blur the line between blue jeans and a string bikini.

Low-riding blue jeans are a fashion trend that seems to have gained popularity over the last few years, and now the only question is, how low can they go? Sanna’s Brazil Fashion seems to have given us the answer with their new line of bikini pants that combine ultra low-cut blue jeans with an integrated string bikini bottom. The effect is stunning… super sexy yet extremely flattering, and without showing more skin than a normal bikini displays.
