In the meantime, in a unanimous opinion issued on Tuesday, the Supreme Court of Massachusetts gave implicit approval for black men to run when the police ask to speak to them. Bad call! The right thing to do, is stop and chat with the cop

System was hacked in "late 2014", but we only now found out about it in 2016. That's almost 2 years. Whoever the "state-sponsored" hacker is probably has lost interest in that access.

Sorry, I don't depend on breaking news before I become familiar with something that affects me. How the FDA operates, or how it is operated, is no news for those who have been following the FDA. So the e-cig regulation was no news. I w

FDA manipulates the media. That's one part. The other part: FDA is controlled by the companies that come under its umbrella. Think of the fox guarding the hen house. So in the final analysis, those companies control the media. But it g

Without the video evidence, yes, it would. Who's the judge going to believe? Three cops, or one "trouble maker"?

“Let’s give him something,” one trooper declared. Another suggested, “we can hit him with creating a public disturbance.” “Gotta cover our ass,” remarked a third. That doesn't sound like it's the first time they've had that

If you know enough to be offered ~$140 000 by a Swiss company, I'd say forget schooling or degrees. Mighty waste of time and money. Just find another job. I'm sure there's at least one startup in the US or Canada that would c

The problem that arises from "collateral damage" of drone strikes is that it makes it easier for the real bad guys to recruit more bad buys. That has been shown to be true, whether in Yemen, Iraq or Afghanistan.

I don't actually mind using any method to fight ISIS or other terror groups, but the part that gets me is fighting them in one place and using them to further our goals in another place. I don't understand that.

Beware of the auto-pay video ad on that site. Hate those. But this: > While nearing completion, the F-35 is still in development and challenges are to be expected... Why, then, did they declare the aircraft combat ready?
