Police Seek Man Caught On Security Camera Stealing Security Camera

Here’s the thing with surveillance cameras: the video that they capture usually goes somewhere. Somewhere else. We don’t know whether the men who were caught on camera removing the very camera that caught them thought that they were destroying the evidence by stealing the cameras, but removing a camera does provide a nice, up-close view of the person removing it.

This crime happened back in October, but police in Suffolk County, New York (on Long Island) just released the footage this week. The man and his accomplice drove up to the camera outside of a motel in a pickup truck pulling a landscaping trailer, then climbed up and took it.

What a nice level of detail. No wonder someone wanted to steal that camera.

If, by any chance, you happen to know anything about the men in the video or the camera theft, you can call 1-800-220-TIPS.

Costco Says Dumping American Express Was About “Saving Money For Customers”

(photographybynatalia)

Yesterday, American Express announced the impending end of its monogamous relationship with Costco, meaning that not only will AmEx cards no longer be accepted at the popular warehouse store but that co-branded AmEx/Costco credit cards will be useless after March 31, 2016. Now Costco is breaking its silence on the split, saying it was all done in the best interest of Costco shoppers.

“Everything comes down to cost and saving money for our members, and that’s what it’s all about,” the Costco VP of investor relations tells the Wall Street Journal. “In general, things come down to economics.”

It also comes down to a chance for Costco to make a few billion more in credit card sales. Even though it only currently accepts AmEx cards, the company manages to bring in more than $100 billion in revenue.

Since most AmEx cardholders also have credit cards for the larger MasterCard or Visa payment networks, Costco can increase the number of customers it reaches.

Some Costco customers who didn’t want to sign up for an AmEx account and didn’t want to be burdened with carrying around wads of cash go through the process of buying Costco cash cards through the company’s website (which already accepts cards other than AmEx) and then use those cash cards when shopping at their local Costco. Depending on which card network Costco ultimately goes with, some of these customers will be able to use their plastic directly at the store without the intermediate cash card step.

In addition to seeking out a larger base of credit card users, Costco may end up getting better terms from whichever network it ends up in bed with. The store had reportedly been seeking improved terms with AmEx but the two parties couldn’t agree.

As Reuters points out, there may be an incentive for a banking partner to make a sweetheart deal with Costco. In addition to making money off of Costco transactions, the card-issuing bank would see income related to other purchases of co-branded cards. And since a card on the MasterCard or Visa network is going to be accepted at more retailers, the bank has more opportunities to earn.

Do We Choose Which Products We Like Based On How Easy They Are To Pick Up?

(Ninja M.)

How hard do you look at products before you grab them? While we’re usually not thinking, “oooh that looks nice and grabbable, I’m going to buy it,” one researchers says that how easy objects are to pick up and use might have some effect on us when it comes time to choose what we want.

NPR’s Goats and Soda blog checked out a new book by Sian Beilock, a psychologist at the University of Chicago, that looks at how our bodies affect our brains called How the Body Knows Its Mind.

She also did a study with the goal of finding out if we might pick up objects based solely on how easy it is to pick up, whether or not we like the thing or not.

To test that, she put two kitchen objects in front of volunteers, with the utensils placed in different positions that made them easier or harder to pick up. So a spoon and a spatula could go on the table, but the spoon has its handle pointing toward participants while the spatula’s points away.

Her study found that 63% of the time, people preferred the object that was easiest to grab.

“This means that subtle changes in the placement or packaging of products can have big effects on people’s desire to buy them,” she observes.

This could be the kind of thing behind Coke’s redesign of its two-liter soda bottle in 2008, NPR notes, changing the shape to make it curvier, and thus, “easier to hold and pour,” as a Coca-Cola rep put it. That led to a surge in Coke two-liters over Pepsi, Beilock says.

That curvy, easy to grab shape “might push you to buy it even knowing it’s not the right decision,” Beilock surmises.
