  6. Footage from the surveillance video shows the pedestrian crossing the road while the garbage truck just arrived intersection. Out of nowhere, the blue dump truck comes into the picture after making a U-turn. The back end of the dump truck just misses the pedestrian, but it crashes into the driver's side of the garbage truck. The dump truck then flees the scene of the accident. While the pedestrian escaped the accident unscathed, the driver of the garbage truck suffered a head injury as a result of the crash. According to the police, the slippery road may have been the cause of the accident.

  13. So I've been thinking more and more lately about how much of my life is already controlled or affected by algorithms. I've decided to make a list maybe you can help add to. Here goes: Newsfeed on FB, Twitter etc... Search "bubble' created (censored by Google) Credit scores Medical report "score" (used by insurance companies to determine care or lack of) Organ transplant donor matches Drug interaction warnings at the pharmacy Da Vinci robotic surgeries LASIK eye surgeries ... etc... Insurance rates on home, auto, life etc.... What is available to me at the big box retailers (only merchandise that sells) Airport runway queues (let's pilots know exactly when to depart the terminal for the runway) Traffic light sequencing on major streets Computer in the car controls many functions simultaneously. (not referring to self-driving cars soon to come) Water quality Sewage processing Love matches online (1 out of 4 couples now meet this way) and I'm sure there are hundreds more to go.... Can you add one below as a reply?
  14. Sounds grandiose. We already have satellite coverage everywhere. The problem is equipment on the ground to receive the signals. Also, how does he propose to power these billions of iPhones everywhere? Nevermind the purchase of these billions of devices. Where will they get the $ in the first place. He wants more eyeballs on Facebook. I get that. However you can't squeeze blood out of turnip. If they don't have the $ in the first place who will want to advertise to the penniless? I applaud his desire though. I would first ask him to respect people's privacy with the 1.5 billion people he has before he tries to take on entire new continents. Hugs Zuckerberg.
  15. He is making a powerful statement by doing this. Most likely they are Muslims as well.
  16. Despite steady job growth, Washington’s unemployment rate remains at 5.8 percent U.S. unemployment increases slightly to 5 percent OLYMPIA – While Washington added 9,000 new jobs from February 2016 to March 2016, the state’s unemployment rate held steady at 5.8 percent, according to the state’s Employment Security Department (ESD). The state released the seasonally adjusted, preliminary jobs estimates from the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics as part of its March Monthly Employment Report. “Washington continues to enjoy steady job growth but surges in the labor market are impacting the state’s unemployment rate,” said Paul Turek, Washington’s state labor economist. “The state added nearly 100,000 new jobs since last year, but at the same time, 92,500 more people entered the labor market to compete for those jobs—and that’s been keeping the unemployment rate from declining ” The U.S. unemployment rate increased slightly from 4.9 percent in February to 5 percent in March. Unemployment in the Seattle/Bellevue/Everett area dropped from 5 percent in February 2016 to a preliminary 4.9 percent in March 2016. ESD paid unemployment insurance benefits to 69,916 people statewide in March. Labor force continues to grow in Puget Sound and across Washington The state’s labor force increased by more than 13,000 to nearly 3.62 million from February to March. The labor force is the total number of people, both employed and unemployed, over age 16. In the Seattle/Bellevue/Everett region, the labor force grew by 7,300 to nearly 1.61 million over the same period. Washington enjoys job growth in all but two sectors in March This month’s report shows the greatest job growth in professional & business services with 2,200 new jobs from February to March. Financial activities saw no growth, and education & health services lost 1,600 jobs. Year-over-year growth remains strong with continued gains in public and private sectors Washington added 98,200 new jobs from March 2015 to March 2016, not seasonally adjusted. The private sector grew by 87,600 jobs and the public sector added 10,600, according to ESD’s Monthly Employment Report. From March 2015 to March 2016, 11 of 13 major industries saw growth while the number of jobs in the mining and logging industries dropped by 600 and manufacturing lost 2,300 jobs. The top four industry sectors with the largest employment gains from March 2015 to March 2016, not seasonally adjusted, were: · Professional & business services with 17,100 new jobs; · Retail trade with 14,900 new jobs; · Leisure & hospitality with 14,300 new jobs; and · Construction with 10,900 new jobs. ### Web links · Monthly employment report · Labor market information website · State and local trends and projections · Three-month comparisons, county-to-county (Excel spreadsheet) ~ click “Current estimates” under “Not seasonally adjusted” on the right · Historical data (Excel spreadsheet) ~ click “Historical estimates” under “Seasonally adjusted” on the right · Employment Security website ###
