The haul: 150-200,000 plants, up to two-and-one-half tons of marijuana, sling-baled and lifted out by helicopter, 4-600 pounds per load. Plants range from knee-high to chest-high. All are bushy; typical, agents say, of Mexican-grown marijuana. Jordan places the street value at well more than $100 million. The cost of this entire operation to seize $100 million dollars in marijuana, one can only fathom. Officers think they are actually serving and protecting the community in these situations bu

A group dedicated to warning motorists of photo radar locations in Winnipeg had a run-in with police Tuesday morning. James Cotton, had set up a sign on Ness Avenue, informing drivers of a radar trap in a nearby school zone. Shortly after wards, police officers approached and warned him he could be charged with obstruction of justice.

An exposed photo radar manual shows details on how to steal, use, operate, and maintain the cameras. In an article released by KFYI, Dow says that the Redflex operations manual, which was supplied to CameraFRAUD by a “confidential source,” states that “judges, city workers and other city government workers cannot get tickets.” The manual also provides a flow chart, easy enough to analyze by your typical bureaucrat, how to distribute tickets—and bring in the take—to Arizona citizens.

A few simple tips could help protect Web surfers from a low-tech tactic used by high-tech thieves: disguise. Hackers have found ways to impersonate banks online, to pretend to be your social networking acquaintances and even to disguise themselves as long-lost friends. It's all in an effort to spread computer viruses and other malicious software that allow criminals to hijack personal information, trick users into purchasing fake anti-virus programs and more. Fortunately, some basic safe-surfing

In Utah, even if you don't get arrested for drunk driving you might still have to call your mom from jail — sort of. The Utah Highway Patrol and some local bars hope letting people practice an uncomfortable call from the local lockup will help dissuade drinking and driving. A phone number has been set up to recreate what it would feel like to make such a call. After dialing 1-877-JAIL-FON, the caller is given the option to talk to a hysterical mother or a disapproving father, among others. A pre

A computer virus which shut down Ealing Council's services is estimated to have cost the authority more than 500,000. The virus which hit the council's server on May 14 and threatened computers on and off for 12 days, came from a USB memory stick used in the Ruislip Road office. Immediate recovery costs totaled 202,000, for staff overtime, catering, travel, eliminating the virus and rebuilding computer systems. For some companies it may have been worth a few extra dollars for decent antivirus so

The three main nutrients that have been identified as absolutely necessary for plants are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). These three are also known as macronutrients, and are the source of the three numbers commonly found on organic fertilizer labels.

Organic fertilizers differ from chemicals as organic feeds your plants while building the soil's structure. Soils with lots of organic material, remain loose and airy, are better able to hold moisture and nutrients, foster growth of soil organisms, including earthworms, and promote healthier root development. Building a healthy soil is the key to successful organic gardening.

As dui arrests seem to topple the typical officer’s desk every Monday, some begin to question some cases. Officers all over the country have been caught making false dui arrests, causing one to question are these dui arrests more for safety or just another rapid revenue process like photo radar. In Arizona a first time offender will spend a night in jail, and be forced to use an interlock device (device blown into in order to start car) for at least a year. These harsh punishments for first
