Pasadena Traffic Enforcement Sweep

Pasadena Now is reporting that this coming Friday the City of Pasadena will be conducting a citywide sweep at the most dangerous intersections around town.

https://www.pasadenanow.com/_News/publish/article_2047.html

The times are from 7am to 3pm. I would encourage that the city extend this to the later hours at least until 6pm and for sure they need to cover Hill and Orange Grove as well as Hill and the 210. I can’t count the number of cars I see running red lights at these intersections. Not only running red lights but speeding.

I hope this program yields some safer conditions on the roads of Pasasdena.

Blue-ray Format Wins!

The Blue-Ray format has won, now that Toshiba has bowed out with their HD format.

I’m sure there will be more on this development, but for now it appears that Blue-Ray which is backed by Sony and the studios is the winner.

The good news is that you shouldn’t have any troubles finding movies in the Blue-Ray format.

Unlimited Service Mobile Plans now becoming available

The cell companies are quickly responding to each other and the announcement of unlimited service offerings.

T-Mobile has announced that it will begin offering a $99.99 unlimited calling and text message plan starting February 21st.

AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, Helio, are giving customers almost exactly the same plan, though unlike AT&T and Verizon.

Sounds like a good deal. I think these are ways to get more users hooked and then upsell the data plans.

I’m sure we will be reading more about these new plans in the coming week.
