The Baltimore Sun reported this morning that an "Ex-NSA Official Indicted For Leaks To Newspaper". The paper then goes on to say "... Federal law prohibits government employees from disclosing classified information which could be 'expected to cause damage to national security... " Well who turn the light bulb on in Washington today?
It has been a crime all along, why hasn't the AG been prosecuting these traitorous scumbags from the beginning. Every time I hear or read the words, "informed sources' or some other bullshit phrase to cover these pricks, I just want to puke.
Let's make an example out of this guy and throw the book at him. If the punishment is death, so be it. He is putting our soldiers at risk and the citizens of this country at risk.

Rotisserie Chicken or Rotisserie Pigeon?
So I go in to a Stop & Shop supermarket in New Jersey, and after dodging the pigeons crapping all over the sidewalk at the front entrance, I finally make it in the door unscathed, this time.
As I approach the deli counter, I can smell what I believe to be rotisserie chicken in little plastic boxes. I immediately notice the size of the birds, then the weight and the price. A two pound chicken, selling for $8.99; that is $4.49 a pound.
If you go to Costco right down the road, they also have rotisserie chicken. A three and a half pound bird will cost you $4.99; that is $1.42 a pound for a very delicious chicken.
One thing I have noticed in recent weeks is less pigeons at the Stop & Shop entrance. Hmmm, could they be selling Rotisserie Pigeon? Certainly has that appearance.

Comcast's Backdoor Rate Increase
Comcast New Jersey Implements Backdoor Rate Increase - Alleges Channel Realignment
Comcast New Jersey is systematically removing channels from the lower ninety-nine channel lineup under the guise of high definition. There are now nine channels that are now in the higher range and REQUIRE a cable box to receive them.
So formerly, up until a few months ago, you were able to watch the following stations without the $8.40 cable box.
The cable industry needs to be more strictly regulated. The consumer is NOT being protected.
Below is Comcast's disclaimer on their website:
**This channel can only be received with a digital converter. IMPORTANT CUSTOMER INFORMATION: The listed programs, packages, services, channel numbers, content, format and other aspects of Comcast's service are its current offerings and are subject to change or discontinuance at any time in accordance with applicable law.

Why Radio is Looking Better These Days - Or Why Comcast Sucks Even More Now
I have been watching News12-News Jersey for some time now to get the local news. This was one of two ONLY local New Jersey News shows broadcast on Comcast Cable. The other was CN8. So now both stations are ONLY available if you buy Comcast's premium digital service. Comcast has effectively place a stranglehold on the local news in their service area.
A call placed to Comcast was met with a drone citing the corporate mantra that you must buy digital service to get those stations as they have been moved. A call to News12-New Jersey was met with sympathy, but they basically stated the same solution. CN8 just echoed News12's sentiments. These solutions require giving Comcast more money every month. Screw them.
A call to the FCC resulted in redirection to their website to file a complaint.
Listening to the radio for news and reading a book for enjoyment will certainly be making a comeback.

Hey COSTCO ...
Hey COSTCO!!! Tell me why I am a member again.
I just received an email advert that says, "Nikon Cameras, save up to $600 while supplies last."
A closer look at your ad never mentions the Nikon rebate. You claim that the savings is courtesy of COSTCO, nothing could be further from the truth.
That's NO BARGAIN AT ALL!!!
Nikon prices are not discounted ever; unless they are grey market. Nikon however offers rebates, which is what your pricing is. A look at one of the most reputable camera stores on the Internet and in brick and mortar is B&H Photo Video in Manhattan. They are offering the same package and spell out the $100 instant rebate.
This must be what everyone calls BS advertising.
COSTCO you ought to be ashamed of this practice.
