Walk, Don't Walk - A Matter of Life and Death

According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.

Thinkpad (AXcess News) Washington - In the first 36 days of this year, five pedestrians were killed and one seriously injured in Southeast Washington, causing alarm among officials in the District and its suburbs.

Microsoft Speaking Tuesday in front of an $11 million pedestrian tunnel built to give pedestrians a safe crossing at a busy intersection in suburban Alexandria, Va., D.C. Police Chief Charles Ramsey and officials from nearby Virginia and Maryland convened near the King Street Metrorail station to discuss plans to prevent deaths like the five that occurred over eight days in January and February.

Laptop Computers In 2003, Washington led the nation in pedestrian fatalities, reporting 18 deaths, or 3.2 deaths per 100,000 people. By contrast, New York state reported 1.7 deaths per 100,000 residents and California reported two deaths per 100,000.

Laptop Computer The next year, on the heels of a pedestrian safety overhaul in which Washington installed more than 1,200 countdown pedestrian signals, the capital reported just 1.6 deaths per 100,000 residents. That rate was the same as New York's and below California's, 1.9.

matter what, he sought the Lord, even if it might mean death, he continued to worship the Lord.

Desktop Computer But with 16 fatalities in 2005 and five already this year, Washington could be in the midst of another record year.

Notebooks To combat the rise in fatalities, Ramsey endorsed the Street Smart initiative, which is designed to increase safety awareness for both pedestrians and drivers. Sponsored by the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments, Street Smart was launched in 2002, and after going somewhat silent, is being revived after the recent spike in pedestrian deaths.

Lenovo Since leading the nation in fatalities three years ago, the city and its suburbs have continued to install countdown pedestrian signals and plan to install 60 more.

Hard Drive The signals include a clock counting down the number of seconds pedestrians have to cross the street. Two-thirds of states told the U.S. Department of Transportation they use the signals.

Travelstar But Ramsey said signals alone are not enough. In all five fatalities this year, pedestrians were crossing mid-block and two of the five were at night. He said awareness is just as vital as signals.

Gateway "We plan to make sure pedestrians use crosswalks, pay attention and obey the law," Ramsey said. "By exercising common sense strategies, we are confident we can better pedestrian safety."

Laptop Parts Pedaling in downtown D.C., bicycle courier Jake Marsico said he sees both sides of the pedestrian debate.

Software "Pedestrians have to watch out," Marsico said. "But at the same time, accidents could be avoided if people slowed down- it's a city not a race track."

Hard Drives Marsico said he rarely sees enforcement of traffic laws, but said he foresees "an uprising" if jaywalking and other traffic laws are too stringently enforced.

Electronics Ramsey and the Metropolitan Police Department will test Marsico's theory, increasing enforcement with three two-week waves this year. The department has issued more than 7,500 tickets in three years during these waves, which target pedestrians, cyclists and drivers.

Canon But Jason Patton, who coordinates a pedestrian safety project in Oakland, Calif., said pedestrian safety flies on and off of the public radar as pedestrian deaths fluctuate.

Desktop Pc Patton has worked primarily with the engineering aspect of pedestrian safety, helping to design structures such as pedestrian refuge islands that cut highways in half.

Desktop Computers "Cars aren't often the problem," Patton said. "In places like San Francisco where you have such congestion, there's not much problem because cars aren't moving at high speeds. Where you have lots of pedestrians and also high-speed traffic is where you have problems."

Think Pad Patton said pedestrians hit at 40 mph have an 85 percent fatality rate. At 30 mph the fatality rate drops to 45 percent, and at 20 mph it's 5 percent.

Repair Washington's COG, which also includes the capital's Virginia and Maryland suburbs, reported that approximately 89 pedestrians are killed and 2,600 injured in the region each year. On a national level, DOT reports nearly 5,000 pedestrian deaths annually and said 68,000 were injured in 2004, down from 71,000 in 2002. National numbers for 2005 have yet to be released.

Data Recovery Even though Washington's recent increase in pedestrian fatalities may seem dramatic, DOT reported in 2004 that pedestrian fatalities in the U.S. have dropped 15 percent in the last 10 years.

Cisco And Susan Kirinich of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said those numbers aren't misleading.

Keyboard "Spikes within a city or area are common. You tend to see that," said Kirinich, NHTSA's pedestrian safety manager. "When they're out of the news, people tend to forget."

Monitor Patton and Kirinich were optimistic about investments in pedestrian safety programs and said there has been a large investment in infrastructure. That includes curb extensions near intersections called "bulbouts," which can reduce crossing distance on a four-lane highway from 60 feet to 48 feet.

Desktop But Kinrinich said "there isn't a one-size-fits-all solution." She said car collisions can often be survived by wearing seat belts, but with pedestrian collisions, there are far too many factors to pinpoint.

Infosys The newest addition in D.C.'s Street Smart initiative is an advertising campaign focused at English- and Spanish-speaking pedestrians. Ads will be strategically placed on the radio, Metro, bus and outdoor transit to ensure that pedestrians as well as drivers are paying attention to their surroundings.
