 OUR LATEST POLL

This week, the state of Illinois announced it will be using more camera enforcement on the interstate to catch speeders. The money collected from fines would be used to curb gang violence. What do you think about this strategy?

I am against it. Using cameras to catch speeders is a violation of one's privacy.

 WHITE PAPERS

Commercial White Paper: Using Hydraflow Storm Sewers Extension with AutoCAD Civil 3D 2008   Autodesk
The ability to perform storm water hydrology and hydraulic (H&H) tasks is crucial to civil and environmental engineers. Currently, most H&H tasks are accomplished using Microsoft® Excel® program, or other third-party applications, with no direct connection to civil engineering design and construction documentation software. As a result, engineers are forced to transfer data between various programs, which results in increased time, inefficiency, and a higher risk of error.
