    The votes are in: Oregon Zoo's lion cubs get their names

    The votes are in — more than 15,000 of them — and the 6-week-old lion cubs at the Oregon Zoo now have names instead of numbers. Following an online selection process that drew international attention to the zoo this past week, Neka’s cubs will henceforth be known as Kamali, Zalika and Angalia.

    I'm typing this comment on an Acer Android tablet that probably weighs twice as much, but it has most of the power for half the price. It also has a MicroSD card slot, 2 USB posts (one slave, one host), a miniHDMI port, and a battery that will last me all day while stuck in an airport.

    I have nothing against Apple, and I think my girlfriend's iPad is pretty slick, but I just don't understand why they can't put a MicroSD expansion slot on the damn things. I can live without the USB ports (as nice as they are), but not having expandable/removable storage is a deal breaker for me.

    On one hand, I can appreciate the concern, but on the other hand, how many "criminals" are going to expose themselves via publicly accessible services like instagram? Given that people have been finding ways to illegally acquire guns long before the internet, I can't fathom why someone would look for an illegal weapon on a public forum.

    Anyone dumb enough to sell an illegally acquired gun or purchase a gun via instagram and use it in a crime will most likely get caught, so why not let the law abiding gun nuts continue to use this service, especially if they're following state laws?

    This is bullshit. The guy should have been summarily fired, not given almost $40k in workers comp. Here's a tip: don't want people sending you angry emails? Don't assault non-violent protesters.
