Find Telemarketers with 973-273 Numbers | Report Telemarketing Calls
I got a call from this number starting off with FBI reports and asking to put a sign in my yard. I pushed the option for do not call, called the number and got the same do not call option and pressed that one the second time, with a message telling me it would take up to 24 hours.
Why is it that this phone seems to remain in service? Is there no one at the FTC, FCC or at the state level able to go after these people?
The number appears to be one served by Verizon. I looked to see if there was a way to report such things to Verizon and nothing popped up on my first search.

Other numbers I've noted in recent days - 919-741-5631 and 919-698-7339

Before the law changes, why don't we collect all of this information for Chapelboroham and post it in lots of places? There appears to be nothing online.

The Australian Made Campaign - Welcome to Australian Made
This was covered today on TV5Monde news in French. It appears to have had a big positive impact with Australians buying locally produced for many reasons, but in spite of lower-priced competitors from other countries.
Police Log | The Herald-Sun
Seeing this story today makes me think that we really ought to record the full story of all guns that wind up involved in crimes or violence/misuse of any kind. What do I mean? In this case, let's make sure the public record - here, for example - shows the make and model of the gun involved in this incident, along with serial number. Let's answer the question publicly about the origin of the gun. Who bought it? When? How many owners has it had? How did it change ownership if it did? Where is it now? If with the police, what will they do with it short and long term? If taken out of circulation, how? If not, what happens to it, both during the disposition of the criminal charges and beyond?

The Ignorance Caucus - NYTimes.com
It's amazing and discouraging to realize how much the members of the Chapel Hill Town Council and the Republicans in Washington have in common.
