11-99 Officer needs help
I'm guessing you interviewed officers from every police department in the world then? While it may be more common to hear "officer needs help," I'm sure 11-99 is still used somewhere. It still means "officer needs help" regardless on whether it's used or not, anyway.

My Brother Is A Police Car?
That video was funny and made me laugh, but I'm more interested in the one that was suggested to me at the end with a girl doing a sobriety test with no pants.

AdSense Questions
On the website: click the settings gear on the top right, then payments, then payee profile. There should be a "Tax status" thing with something related to Form W9.

I'm pretty sure AdSense makes you do a tax thing when you first sign up for it.

The 2015 Dodge Charger....
I always loved the way the front of the Charger looked just because it's so aggressive. This is just no. No.

Vehicle Accident Call Outs
I'm not going to use another source of callouts when LCPDFR already has its own that can have more added to it. And I don't like the other things that Braveheart's does, like the resisting arrest. I know it can be disabled, but the function still causes problems. And the fact that it's almost impossible to kill people by hitting them.

Vehicle Accident Call Outs
Braveheart's does, but the spawning in that script is bit odd. Half the time I used it, they spawn in the middle of nowhere where there isn't even traffic (sometimes not even a road). Plus it doesn't have the support of LCPDFR's API. I would also like to have an MVA callout using the API. Edit: I don't really think the vehicle's visible damage is that important.

One Ugly Truck
I really like the innovation in these trucks, regardless of how it looks. Really, what we think looks good is relative. We base what's good-looking and not on what we've seen. Since this is something we haven't seen before, everyone immediately thinks it's ugly. One issue that I don't think was addressed in either video is safety. The Wal-Mart truck didn't look like it had any safety features on it, aside from increased visibility. I've never driven a real semi (I'm guessing 18 Wheels of Steel and Euro Truck Simulator don't count), but wouldn't making the trailers lighter cause overturning problems? Trucks already get blown around from the wind on wide open highways, wouldn't making them lighter cause that to be worse? The trailer didn't really look like it was developed to be aerodynamic from the sides, only from the front.

I don't see how one can be "exempt from any accusations." An accusation is a claim that someone has done something wrong. You can't be exempt from someone's claim. You may be able to be exempt from cheating, but that would be cheating. Cheater.

Police Helper HELP lol
Just copy vdH_PoliceHelper.net.dll, vdH_PoliceHelper.ini, and the vdH_PoliceHelper folder to your scripts folder. Overwrite anything it asks you to overwrite.

A couple of Questions
You can recruit a partner. Aim at an AI cop and press G. I don't believe you can have multiple partners.

GTX 760 Advice
I have an AMD FX-8350, which has a stock speed of 4.0 GHz (4.2 Boost), and it is very good for it's price. It doesn't beat Intel in performance, though. I also have 16 GB of RAM. Unless you are running a whole bunch of programs in the background, the extra RAM won't really help in GTA IV. For reference, the GeForce Experience program recommended that I run GTA IV with highest settings, except 75 on all the slider options and only high on shadow quality when I had a 660 Ti. I now have a 780 and it still recommends the same settings. I'm guessing it's my processor that is making it decide that it's best to keep those lower. Or it could just be because they know how badly optimized the game is. Of course, that program isn't perfect because it recommends that I run Arma 3 on almost all low, but extremely high visibility. That results in a huge framerate loss simply because of the visibilty, so I use the settings recommended by Arma which is much better (and much higher quality). I may have went a little off topic now...

GTX 760 Advice
It could be that the commandline isn't working for whatever reason. Your computer should handle the game with reasonable car mods just fine. 1) If you don't own the game on Steam: If you don't have a shortcut to GTA IV on your desktop, create one. Then right click it, and open properties. At the end of the line that says "Target" add a space then -norestrictions -nomemrestrict so it looks like this: "[GTA IV Directory]" -norestrictions -nomemrestrict 2) If you do own the game on Steam: Right click the game in Steam and click Set Launch Options. Add -norestrictions -nomemrestrict to that. (At least I believe that's what you would do, I don't own it on Steam)

NPC (Machinima series)
I like it, partially because Adam Kovic and Bruce Greene from Inside Gaming are two of the voice actors. They are like the best people.

Speedtest thread.
This is what mine usually is at college: I'm supposed to have 30 Mb/s download and upload, but that's depending on the current load. When there are fewer people on the internet, I'll get around 30 Mb/s download and up to 50 Mb/s upload. Here's a pic during faster times (I had the link from when I shared it with someone on Twitter, that's why it looks weird):

Can't make up my Flipping mined
Well, if we're talking 780s, I just upgraded to this: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 GHz Edition from my overclocked Asus 660 Ti. 1017 MHz core clock, 1071 MHz boost. I'm pretty sure it's the fastest 780 on the market (don't quote me on that), being only slightly slower than the EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Classified K|NGP|N Edition (1072MHz base clock, 1137MHz boost clock). Plus it's $310 cheaper (before the Newegg sale). The only downside is that the 3 fans on it made it a very tight squeeze in my computer. Had to scrape it up a little...no damage though, just a few scratches that I'll never see. Another thing is that EVGA is coming out with a 780 with 6 GB GDDR5, which is what the Titan has. Of course, Nvidia is now developing the Titan Z with 12 GB GDDR5 and 5,760 cuda cores, basically 2 Titans in one.

Well you are definitely a strong candidate having military experience and being "TheMoneyMan." Good luck with the rest of the process.

Is it just me, or...
It's also law in New York. I think it went into effect in 2010 or 2011. Originally it was only for emergency vehicles with red and/or white flashing lights, but they updated it pretty quickly to include amber lights as well. (Source) Edit: Originally went into effect January 1, 2011 for red/white lights and was updated January 1, 2012 to include amber. I also know that it's law in Florida. Edit 2: According to Wikipedia, the only place in the US without a move over law is Washington D.C., and that's technically only a territory.
