14 hours ago by pgorrindo
The wireless industry, The FCC, and FEMA will roll-out the WEA's (Wireless Emergency Alerts) system nationwide this year.
The NWS will start utilizing this by pushing extreme weather warnings over the system in June 2012.
Tornado warnings, flash flood warnings and several other high-end warnings will go direct to wireless users in an affected county automatically if their device is compatible.

ВЕДОМОСТИ - От редакции: Битва слова и дела
yesterday by some_hren
Оказывается, перед самым уходом из Кремля Медведев сделал царский подарок компании «Мостотрест» Аркадия Ротенберга, близкого друга президента России Владимира Путина. «Мостотрест» без конкурса получит подряд на строительство всех дорог вокруг Сколкова. Общая стоимость строительства — $1 млрд.
А вот у аэропорта «Домодедово» в числе владельцев пока нет друзей Путина. Поэтому «Домодедово» удалось заключить с государством удивительную сделку: сначала аэропорт подарит государству кусок земли, потом преимущественно за свои деньги построит на этой земле взлетно-посадочную полосу и, наконец, отдаст все это государству в собственность.

2. Замечательный наш борец с коррупцией Медведев специальным распоряжением отдал без конкурса весьма лакомые московские дорожные подряды на несколько десятков миллиардов рублей путинскому дружку Аркадию Роттенбергу.
