    What are your thoughts about the following ideas in facility management...

    Option C has been addressed by a few vendors and usually involves s light sensor in the room to validate occupancy, or requires room users to press a button/touchscreen panel in the room within 5-10 minutes of a meeting start to keep a reservation. Modern commercial interior design is moving...

    Who Won the Debate?

    Not in front of 60+ million people, I'm perfectly aware of how he stumbles off-message but this was the first time a lot of people who normally get their Obama fully filtered saw it for themselves.

    Who Won the Debate?

    I think it was a good opportunity for people to see the real Obama, out from behind his handlers and media smokescreen, real and un edited. Do you think it's any different when he's off-script/off-camera dealing with other foreign leaders, etc? Obama wasn't off his game, he was himself. To me...

    Mass Shooting at Dark Knight Rises Premier in Aurora Colorado (12 Dead, 59 Injured)

    This is accurate.... and frankly, is there some reason having a lot of LICENSED dealers in the country is a bad thing? It's a purposefully inflamatory use of statistics comparing a broad category of business to a specific franchise... but whatever makes a sensational talking point for the...

    Mass Shooting at Dark Knight Rises Premier in Aurora Colorado (12 Dead, 59 Injured)

    So your logic is that by making something illegal you will deter people from acquiring and using/reselling it. How's that war on drugs going? How are the violent crime rates in the UK since their ban? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1440764.stm Also, properly stored ammunition can last...

    Data show momentum building in economy

    The article seems to contradict its title actually... Looks awfully shaky considering the data they cite. "The data have maintained their stronger tone and that suggests the economy is on an upswing towards the end of 2011, but they are not pointing to robust growth in 2012," said Conrad...

    Being pro-life is utterly untenable and stupid

    As someone generally of a conservative slant I find this debate interesting because I am personally pro-life (and a parent of 3) but don't believe the government has the right to legislate that decision for everyone. Same for gay marrige, gun control, freedom of speech, etc... It's...

    WoW Level-up has very few rewards?

    Don't forget the unofficial gear levels you still need to grind through once you hit max level to get your class's numerical level of contribution to a level that will open up the endgame raids. The point of smaller steps in the levelling process is to give players enough reward for the time...

    PSA: Boehner cuts off C-SPAN cameras when he doesn't like what you say

    Bullshit. What about the health care debate other than the overt display of political gamesmanship swapping gimmies/favors for votes justified having ANY of the negotiations or floor proceedings happen behind closed doors? These people work for us, if you haven't forgotten. Unless it...
