CUPERTINO, Kalifornia (PNN) - September 12, 2013 - There’s a lot of talk around biometric authentication since Apple introduced its newest iPhone, which will let users unlock their device with a fingerprint.

KEENE, New Hampshire (PNN) - July 30, 2013 - A group of citizens in Keene, New Hampshire, thought the city was gaining a bad reputation for its predatory parking meter enforcement and decided to do something about it. They organized an effort to regularly feed coins into the meters so that other citizens and visitors could avoid receiving expensive tickets slapped on their windshields. Instead, they received a card telling them that Robin Hood and the Merry Men have "saved you from the king's tariff". As a reward for their generosity, idiot thug officials of the city has filed a ridiculous lawsuit against the Robin Hooders for civil conspiracy to interfere with a contract. A hearing on the case is scheduled for August 12.

The massive Department of Homeland Security, created by an Act of Congress, has already attracted countless lobbyists, all vying for billions of dollars in DHS appropriations.
