As Service Gaps Remain, City Says Verizon Broke Promise on FiOS (Monty Solomon)
Virginia Shooting Gone Viral, in a Well-Planned Rollout on Social Media (Monty Solomon)

Men of sense often learn from their enemies. Prudence is the best safeguard. This principle cannot be learned from a friend, but an enemy extorts it immediately. It is from their foes, not their friends, that cities learn the lesson of building high walls and ships of war. And this lesson saves their children, their homes, and their properties.
Aristophanes
