Lock Up Your Daughters! Is the World Ready for Taki Jr.?
New York Observer
.....John-Taki Theodoracopulos—J.T. to his friends—is a bike messenger and an as-of-yet-undiscovered artist. He lives alone in a townhouse in Red Hook, Brooklyn.

....Taki—who lives in New York only for the months of April, May, October and November, spending the rest of his time mostly on his boat and in Gstaad—and J.T. proceeded to share international adventures. In September 2002, J.T. went to meet dad at the Hotel Byblos in St. Tropez.

Hartford Courant
Officials know how to improve truck safety in Connecticut.
They didn't need a recent study by an academy of engineers to confirm that high-tech scales and in-truck, EZ-Pass-like transponders already in use at the Union weigh station for companies with good safety records would, if their use were expanded to the state's five other stations, ease congestion — especially at the antiquated Greenwich station.The officials also know that the technology could allow them to zero in on trucks that require more detailed inspections and for a more random weigh-station schedule. That would make it less likely that rogue truckers who communicate by CB and iPhone would take to the back roads and skirt the stations.
