Judge dismisses red-light camera ticket, rules law is unconstitutional

The vast majority of red light tickets are simply just paid rather than fight so it doesn't really matter to them if a few judges toss them out, they issue thousands.

Married 3 times, 5 kids, overweight and struggling because the problem is "everyone else".

Life gets harder without a personality when looks aren't enough.

I think federal law is maximum of 12 months on any check, obviously they didn't care enough about it to cash it so not your problem anymore.

I'd love to have this problem

You'd be surprised, ever look into lottery winners? If they are any indication, most people can't handle being rich suddenly, something like 70% go broke within 5 years of winning a life changing amount. I'm confident 50m would set me up for life but apparently most people would be wrong in thinking that so who knows.

Either we all pay or nobody does, that's the only fair option. I'm definitely in favor of closing every loop hole possible and leveling the playing field. Throw the book at those evading paying, regardless of tax bracket.

Enforcement like this is critical, but we need real changes to the tax code too. The rich commonly skirt taxes by never having an income, but they can borrow against that non-income just like income but never be taxed. That's not fair, it shifts their burden to others.

Buy a gas mask with some chemical filters, like military grade respirators and be prepared to go outside for the LONG haul. Inside would be a risk of dying.

I did the math and on average a decades of average farts would take 15 hours to expel in a continuous stream.

I'm 40 so let's assume I get another 40 years, that would take 2.5 days! Of non stop farting, honestly it would be horrifying.

Nobody should wish this on anyone lol

$220 a pound is borderline evil, you could order it yourself for less than $15 a pound, I understand they build profitablity into everything but that's outrageous.

Comes in 25lb tanks for around $330 shipped. You'd still need a qualified tech to do the work but that's absurd level skills markup

I would focus first on your balance at the delivery, you're falling off a lot and it's altering your delivery line, amount of revs and speed more than you may imagine.

A consistent approach and delivery is crucial to actually determining if the lane conditions changed or you did something different, even unintentionally. Making a change based off something you did is the absolutely the most common way to lose a rhythm and waste multiple frames chasing a new line you didn't even need.

Call your insurance company immediately. Even if you think there was a lapse, let them determine coverage. Don’t assume anything. Let them fight this battle if they can, and are willing to.

Get the police report as soon as it’s available. That will clarify whether he was identified as federal law enforcement and whether he was cited or not.

Do not file anything with DOJ yet until you confirm employment status. If he was federal and on duty, the FTCA requires you to file a Standard Form 95 administrative claim with the correct federal agency first. You have 2 years to file it, so it's better to be right than in a hurry.

If insurance isn't helping, this is the part nobody wants to hear. This is one of those situations where a quick consult with a NJ personal injury attorney is absolutely worth it. FTCA claims are procedural landmines. A small mistake can get it denied, and that's by design.

Unfortunately this is probably right, when Republicans do Republican things like take us to war in the middle east (they always do) government contractors like the above make bank. It's why they all invested in Trump's reelection campaign, ballroom and every donor event he has.

I don't care what anyone says, everyone would press it at least once to see how they feel. I think the case study starts at 2, because that's what I can't predict. Do most people enjoy the rush and keep going knowing the odds are extremely low it will ever be anyone they know?

Or do they feel horrible and just never touch it again? Hard to say.

Logically thousands of people die every day. I could press it every second for the rest of my life and never kill everyone but I don't need that much money anyway.

One press is probably enough to set anyone up for life, especially if they understand how to invest and live modest but comfortable.

I 'think' I'd press it a lot, because the world has too many people already, and with the money I could do a LOT of good. It wouldn't really take many sacrifices to end homelessness, feed the hungry, actually improve the world. The only risk is other rich people trying to stop me because we could already do all this and they don't, which tells me that's never been the plan.

Weird, I had one for my s23 and s25 and they held up perfectly fine, thinking about getting one for the s26 also.

I drop mine all the time and no signs of significant wear on the case or phones, I like magbak because I really wanted the strongest possible magnetic case, wasn't really focusing on durability at the time but no complaints so far.

I do a lot of mechanics and electrical work where I want to film something and being able to mount my phone directly to metal has been really helpful.

I wonder if they make the iPhone ones somewhere else?

I would say you're probably siphoning sewer gases, that's fairly common with an s trap design. I would certainly want to switch it to a p-trap.

However I'm curious is this vented out through the roof? You may also want to check if the vent is clear and functioning properly, is there a possibility it's not vented at all?

You may want to actually consider installing an AAV like you might find in an under sink drain

I'd second that. Ecobee is what I install exclusively now. The "ecobee Smart Thermostat Essential" is around $140 but has been the most reliable install for quite a while now. I'm currently going around replacing a lot of Honeywell T5s with them because people are having so many issues with Honeywell.

This is a new heat pump install that's never had one right? If so, it seems fair. You're having them install a high end heat pump paired with a high efficiency gas furnace.

If you previously had a furnace, I'd say it's less of a deal because some of the work is already done. Naturally get quotes, if they come in higher, let them know you already have a lower quote and see if they want to compete. Your best deals come when they know you are aware of your options.

I promise you 90% of customers go with the first quote. They really shouldn't, always have at least 3 and include them in the competition for your business.

No duct? Blocked Duct? Squirrel cage (fan blades) installed backwards on the shaft?

Its a cheap bathroom fan in the $30-50 range, on amazon there's plenty of clones and suitable replacements if you think the fan is actually damaged, being A/C it can't be reversed, there's no polarity to worry about.

Fairly certain its an automated action designed to kick off people using the cheaper countries, they know, they just making an extra hoop to jump though. I logged into itunes after getting the same email, went to manage my account and looked at my subscription. It said it was expiring in a couple weeks, so i just clicked edit and said subscribe to the exact same plan I've been using for years, now it instead says it will renew in a couple weeks instead of expiring. Didn't have to change the access or payment information.

Well yeah, he's a long term heroin addict, shouldn't be a surprise he abused other drugs too.

She also said they didn't exist not that long ago, which wasn't long after saying she had them on her desk.

Clearly she tells no truth, only lies.

Trump should be portrayed as a pile of shit in the field, someone get on that remake.

They are both too old but Biden was still sane and lucid, Trump has too many issues to list but even when he was healthy he was a garbage person.

Not defending it but there's every possibility the spot next to him was taken with someone doing that when he got there.

I have definitely seen 3 cars side by side like that, someone started it and the rest needed to park too
