The funny thing is, Ferguson may have just admitted to them violating open meetings laws by saying that.

Ferguson has been in legal trouble before. Although, the trustee who is calling for Simon to resign, Mitch Lyons, is also awful. He leaked a whistle blower in the football sexual assault case, he currently has a court date coming up for his own (non-sexual) assault case, and had an anti-Muslim tweet when the Muslim travel ban went into effect.

Basically, everything sucks.

It's a shame the driver never noticed the large obstacle in his path while the car was in enhanced-cruise-control mode. If only the obstacle was painted a bright color, fire engine red perhaps; and if the obstacle had some way of grabbing the driver's attention, maybe a blinking light or two; and ultimately, it should have some indicator on the back of the truck to denote it's a large obstacle and a hazard with a large sticker, maybe alternating red and white reflective tape. If only the driver had some indication like that, he could have taken control of his car and slowed in time.





I anxiously await Elon Musk to Tweet out the Tesla's black box tattle tale last seconds. Idiot was either asleep or very distracted, likely grabbed the steering wheel as autopilot started to slow the car, disabling autopilot, then freaked out that he couldn't stop in time himself, and crashed.

A funny side story about this: Cruise control was formerly called "autopilot", and a RV owner had sued the manufacturer because they were led to believe it was a true autopilot and didn't just regulate velocity, and the RV ended up in a ditch while the "driver" took a nap. I do wonder if similar activity is going to happen in this instance.

As another point, there's GM coming out recently with concept cars that have no steering wheel. I won't get into my typical arguments against this because that's for another day, but what I will say is that this exact scenario would not be able to be prevented if there's no way for a human to assess the situation and adapt to the temporary change in traffic pattern. Computers can only do so much, and driving really can sometimes be an art. Just like how, when you're in heavy traffic, you need to be aware of the happenings of the car in front of the car in front of you, as that will give you quite the insight into how things are going to proceed.

I know replying to oneself is a faux pad, but the Spirit of Judge Kaufman was alive and well in the courtroom today.

Nasser gets 40 to 175.

Put him in GenPop and it may be shorter.

Out of curiosity, how do they expect someone to live 175 years?

Nasser's just one sick dog. The dozens of "healthy" people at US Gymnastics and elsewhere who covered for him ought to face Baby Huey and Tiny in the prison shower.

Eligibility for parole??

Yup. Eligible in 99 years

That is correct. That's why you sometimes see "consecutive" life sentences instead of "concurrent" life sentences. It's a matter when the criminal is up for parole.
