I thought it was Dale at first until I zoomed in a bit. The ''i" is mostly hidden by the "D", but it's clearly there, and that accounts for the dot above. And the c & k become clear also when you pinch and zoom a bit.

New developments can and certainly have put their utilities underground since they're already putting in roads and possibly drainage/sewers. But these eventually lead back out to power lines above ground. That's the case where I live, and I know if we lose power there's probably quite a few who have also lost it.

You should look into the organization called SCORE. It is funded by the Small Business Administration (Federal) and has chapters Nationwide including two or three in New Hampshire, and I'm fairly sure they have Massachusetts chapters as well. It is made up of retired and active business people, lawyers, etc. Locally here to me they have office space in the Federal building in Manchester. They will help you with all aspects of your business. This was started by the SBA because of the failure rate of new businesses. You'll fill out an intake form, meet with someone initially so they can determine your needs and then they will assign you to a mentor or more. It's absolutely free. Edit: SCORE

First, why do you care? Why did you sit there n watch your cam or go back n watch the recording if your food was delivered ok? Weird. Second, you obviously left a lousy tip for the food/drive. Get over yourself.

The governor is an asshole when it comes to drugs; he lumps them all together and thinks just say no is the answer. His idea of dealing with a fentanyl epidemic is to let everybody go through withdrawals, and he thinks pot is a gateway drug to worse drugs. Meanwhile the state has a monopoly on liquor.

Punches are generally non deadly force. In this case The roundhouse thrown certainly was non deadly force. You cannot respond to non deadly force with deadly force. As a retired attorney who practiced in both Mass and New Hampshire I can tell you that the arguments regarding the defendant thinking he may have received life-threatening damage from the knockout which would then permit him to use lethal force is not going to fly in front of a jury. This is because of two reasons, the first is a reasonable person would not think that and that is the standard. The second is when you're not in your home, and you are confronted by deadly force you have a duty to retreat if you can. And these hold true in both civil and criminal law. Last, somebody said something about John's size. Well it's not definitive, again, go to the reasonable person. What a reasonable person of John's size be more or less fearful of someone much smaller? (Yes, someone's always going to bring up what if John thought the smaller guy might be a karate expert or something. Again, go to the reasonable person standard, would someone thinking the smaller guy is a martial arts expert be a reasonable assumption? No. That would be a big leap of faith). The ONLY a thing that might possibly make him guilty of a charge lesser than second degree murder is having received a blow to the head minutes earlier. That would be the battle of the expert witnesses. Second degree murder is not what they call a specific intent crime it is a crime of malice, therefore voluntary intoxication, which is a defense against specific intent crimes, is not a defense here in any way to lessen the charges.

Disappear from the surface is the key phrase. Most of it's still there, just in micro particles which still get eaten by sea life, still enter the food chain, still poison and kill.

You used to be able to travel pretty much anywhere on the east coast by local bus or trolly. Even the unincorporated areas that didn't have local service had something that you could get from one edge of a city or town to the next. The bus companies then convinced cities to get rid of trolleys, and then the car industry helped do away with many of the bus routes leaving only very local service and very long distance service. Gone worthy roots that serviced the more rural sections and the unincorporated parts of towns.

God the guy in the video, what an annoying whiny wuss. Yes it's going to die, your gf is going to kill it despite your objections. It's a rodent in an urban environment, it carries disease, and pisses and shits all over the place. This is coming from an ex native NYer. People that move into the city should have to agree to some basic things, like you kill mice and rats.

Robert Caro's book The Power Broker about Robert Moses retells how time and time again how his answer was simply to build more highways and more lanes, and even when state governments wanted to put public transportation such as light rail alongside or in the middle of highways, Moses found ways not to do that, he was, in retrospect, somewhat elitist and didn't care about the poor having access to travel. Another example is he put a highway in on the west side of Manhattan and the park between the highway and the river, but put no way for pedestrians to access the park from the west side.
