Does anyone know if the monkey in question, Naruto, is still alive?
In any case, does PETA have a signed(hand printed?) contract and retainer(a banana?) showing that Naruto retained them as attorney of record for this legal proceeding?
If not, can PETA be charged for false representation?
The problem is not the equipment. It is how the local organizations use it. If it is used for rescue, think Houston TX, then it is good. If it is used to create a military police army, then it is bad. We the people need to visit our city council meetings and ask questions.
If you have a default rule in your Tomato router that blocks all traffic from the internal LAN to the external Internet, then you should be good. This way, the only traffic that escapes your network is traffic you have specifically allowed.
I find a lot of attempted traffic in my default block everything rule on my firewall logs.
So the Chataeu is worried potential guests might get confused by the cat chow and litter boxes provided to guests at the Cataeu and think the two are similar? Seems more like a quality control problem to me.
Bluetooth enabled playback device and bluetooth speakers should do the trick.
But really, powered speakers still require mains rated cords and are tied to being close to mains power. Normal speakers only need low voltage speaker wire which is easily ran to where it is needed. And they don't require software updates, recharging, extension cords or replacing dead batteries. Still using several bookshelf speakers purchased 30 years ago as my prime PC sound system speakers. Still better then most 'high grade' computer speakers.
Most cord cutting people aren't doing without TV which is what a lot of cord cutting stories imply. Most are replacing corded cable with a cell data plan and/or land based ISP and one or more streaming plans. Chances are, if you add up the cost of the data plan, fees, ISP, more fees, and streaming plan(s), the cost of the substitute TV plan isn't much cheaper then cable, just sourced differently.
True cord cutting would be OTA TV supplemented as desired with DVD/BR of shows and movies.
How else are folks in Chicago supposed to vote early and often if they don't have a list of names to use?
What TFA didn't mention was how much of that info was already public knowledge. In most states, voter information like name, party affiliation, address, recent voting history is publicly releasable and often made available to anyone who asks. Guessing that drivers license number shouldn't have been in the file but the rules vary from state to state.
So the vandals that tore down the Confederate statue after the Charleston rumble might be guilty of a copyright violation in addition to destruction of public/private property charges? Interesting. Stupid but interesting.
Why keep spending money contributing to elected officials to create monopoly like rules when you can just buy the competition and have the real thing?
Both AT&T and Cox were advertising Gig speed service here until Google announced we were no longer on their build out plans. Gig speed advertising disappeared almost overnight and extra added service charges started showing up. Both for Internet service and classic/substitute TV service.
For those in the US, expend a little energy and attend your Congress critter's town halls. Ask about ISP speeds and privacy policies. Since most folks are asking "asked and answered" questions about ACA, budget, recent events, N Korea,etc, expect to get either a deer in headlight look or political babble. Bring up that the US is well behind much of the world in speed and data availability and why does your Congress critter support our poor ranking? For those with Twitter accounts, post on Trump's account. Ask why he supports our 'poor poor ISP speed offerings.' During the 2018 election cycles, if there is a debate, try to ask the same questions of the assembled candidates. Squalling about it on TD does little good. Most critters and appointed officials don't look here.
This also seems to infringe on the 1st Amendment protected right of freedom of expression. The authors of Easylist are expressing opinions about which sites should be blocked by users of software provided by other authors. Easylist itself blocks nothing. It is merely a compiled list of domain names.
I have expressed my opinion about the domain functionalclam.com by adding it to the list in my edge firewall device that blocks all traffic.
The WMATA claims they ban advertisements “intended to influence members of the public regarding an issue on which there are varying opinions”.
Isn't the WHOLE point of advertising to influence public opinion on issues where there are varying opinions? Do I buy Cheer or Tide? Bran flakes or Count Chocula? Ford F150 or Tesla Model 3?
If they fully implemented their own policy, they would ban all ads.
Journalists used to report verified facts and followed a story to ground regardless of where it led or who it embarrassed.
What passes for journalism today is often printing a bunch of opinion pieces backed up by supposition and slanted toward whatever result the 'journalist' supports. Most of today's journalist could better be described as political operatives.
True journalists should have great latitude and protections while they carry out their tasks. Political operatives, not so much. The trick is figuring out when someone has switched from journalist to operative.
One big problem with the current system is the splitting of programming across a family of channels. Program X is on Disney channel, Program Y is on Disney JR, Program Z is on Disney XD. The cables companies then set their tiers up so that the only way to get all the Disney channels is to buy the top tier. Same for ESPN.
If Disney and others really think this cord cutting trend is an aberration, they deserve to fail.

Not sure how a running silhouette with a gun is close to confusing with a static silhouette with a bat watching a ball.
