					  <description><![CDATA[ Push aside old notions of ineffective security officers. The security officer of
 the future has arrived. Today&rsquo;s security officer may be navigating tours on a Segway to patrol airports,
 transit stations, manufacturing facilities, apartment or condominium complexes,
 shopping malls and campuses. With the advent of the broadband revolution, you
 may find today&rsquo;s highly skilled and trained security officer piloting, what looks like, the
 Starship Enterprise of technology, with a host of IP-connected digital
 applications that include closed circuit television (CCTV), life and fire
 safety systems, and remote online access control systems. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[ The expression &ldquo;Better safe than sorry&rdquo; is known by everyone. As apartment dwellers, it is important not to take
 advantage of the sense of security felt by having a doorman posted at the door
 or hallways lined with sprinklers and let our guards down. There are several
 areas where being proactive can make all the difference. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Digital cameras&#8230;camera phones&#8230; smartphones. These terms weren&#8217;t even in our vocabulary ten years ago, yet today, many New Yorkers carry this pocket-sized technology with them everywhere they go. One of the goals of the administration is to tap the potential of new technology and put it to work for city government. Recently, we took a big leap into the digital age by equipping the 911 and the 311 systems to accept photos and videos sent through mobile phones or uploaded through the city&#8217;s website at nyc.gov. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[ So your condo or co-op&rsquo;s management company is getting ready to hire a new service employee. It could
 be a doorman, it could be a maintenance man, it could be a swimming-pool
 supervisor. Is this a simple process, or a complicated one? And, above all, how
 much security is needed in a given position within your building or HOA? Is
 checking a few references enough? Or, in this day and age, is a rigorous
 screening process necessary&mdash;especially because residents&rsquo; security and privacy may be at stake? Or does it depend on the job&mdash;and the size of the development? ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[ Buckminster Fuller, a thinker, inventor, artist, mathematician, (the list goes
 on,) once said, &ldquo;People should think things out fresh and not just accept conventional terms and
 the conventional way of doing things.&rdquo; Fuller, most famous for his invention of the geodesic dome, sought to solve the problems
 facing mankind before they were insurmountable, thinking so far &lsquo;outside the box,&rsquo; that he based most of his designs on the tetrahedron. Thinking so far into the
 future that, decades ago, he was trying to solve the problems we face today.

					  <description><![CDATA[ On September 7, 1927, 19-year-old Philo T. Farnsworth created the first
 television system that could not only display, but transmit signals between
 separate rooms. Now more than 80 years later, another historic date in
 broadcast transmissions is upon us. On February 17, 2009, all full-power
 broadcast television stations in the United States will stop broadcasting on
 analog airwaves and begin broadcasting only in digital.

					  <description><![CDATA[ Over the past two decades, New York City has become a safer place than it once
 was. But events in recent years, both at home and abroad, have made Americans
 more aware of security&mdash;how much they have, how much they&rsquo;d like, and how much security they really need in order to feel truly safe in
 their homes. The answer to those questions involves assessing and adding up the
 costs and benefits of a security program, and tailoring that program to one&rsquo;s particular building, community or home.

					  <description><![CDATA[ Falling bricks. Rickety scaffolding. An errant nail and an unsuspecting foot.
 Things can go wrong during renovation and restoration projects no matter what
 the size and scale of the work at hand. Whether the job is tackling a new fa&ccedil;ade on a high-rise or putting new shingles on a townhome, anything can happen.
 That&rsquo;s why state and local governments put so much effort and energy into ensuring
 the safety of passers-by and why co-op and condo managers turn eagle-eyed and
 protective of their residents when large projects loom.
