Living beside the ocean would allow a pretty good diet without tools. at least the way the ocean used to be. Of course just like a chimp or crow, people will use a rock to break open things and a stick to poke into things.
Ravens solved this problem by getting a wolf to do the initial ripping apart of the animal. I guess it can be argued that using a dog is a form of tool using.
Orangutans are smarter. A zoo keeper once described the differences between the great apes. If you give a screwdriver to a gorilla, it jumps back in fear and will then tentatively take the screwdriver and try to eat it. A chimp will take it and try to use it for everything except unscrewing things. An Orangutan will take it, act stupid and hide it and when no-one is looking, use it to disassemble the cage. Actually they aren't that smart. One who had figured out how to open his cage using a piece of wire, some cardboard and brute strength was smart enough to hide his actions from the zoo keeper but didn't stop to think that the intern working by the door would tell on him. Google orangutan zoo escapes for examples.
Luckily I have box #1 so it's my package that is in a secure and dry place. Actually I guess yours is also dry and safe at the drug store 15 miles down the road.
This is the new Canada. When the postal workers negotiated a cost of living raise (using rotating strikes, eg taking one day off a week) the government legislated a pay drop and took the profits and spent it on pro tar, I mean oil ads. Every time you see an ad for the keystone pipeline, it's us Canadian tax payers paying as the oil industry is so poor from all the bonuses they have to give to management that they can't afford much else. The official position of our government is that all resources have to be directed to the bitumen, I mean oil industry as they are pro-(some)business.
That the person has been charged with a crime is newsworthy in and of itself. That brings the first amendment in to play.
At least in my country, the right to fundamental justice can trump the freedom of expression (including freedom of the press) right. You just have to convince a judge that publishing certain information can jeopardize your right to a fair trial, eg tainting a jury. Of course the prosecution and other interested parties such as the newspapers lawyers can argue the opposite and after the trial they're usually free to publish, especially in the case of a conviction.
To say the web sites cannot post the photos is, legally, the same as saying the New York Times cannot publish the name of the defendant.
There are probably times when the New York Times can't publish the name of the defendant such as in the case of minors.
The attack ad mentality is horrible for democracy with the Conservatives position being basically that those other guys have problems and trust us, we're Conservatives. And as you point out, most of the attacks are BS or worse anyways. The marijuana attack ads where they pretend that making pot harder for kids to get is a bad thing, the personal attacks on Trudeau, the lies about the NDPs plans for a carbon tax etc. If they actually campaigned on their real agenda they would never have got a majority and they know it. The sad thing is that Harpers promises of open government make Obama look honest and open. I usually vote for the Rhinoceros party but couldn't even do that last election due to the Conservatives changes to the elections act.
Actually it was the Liberals who put in the regulations that saved us during the recession and housing market crash. Given a little more time the Conservatives would have removed all those evil regulations. As nice as the tax cuts were, the fact is that we are in more debt per capita then the Americans and cutting taxes instead of paying off the debt and actually increasing the debt seems as stupid as a household cutting back on going to work because they finally started paying down the credit cards and had their credit rating raised.
Spinning the drive wheels much faster then you're moving (if you're even moving) so the tires burn up and make smoke and burn a hole in your wallet when you visit the tire store the next day.
Obama is addicted to the surveillance, especially the spying on foreign government part. Nothing like knowing what the competition is thinking, what there bottom line is, etc. Like most addicts he's in denial about it, probably thinks he can just stop and demonizes others with the same problem. Me, I worry about what the next US leader is going to be like as everyone seems to take things further down the fascist road.
Seems the hard part would be recognizing that by combining copper sulfate and ascorbic acid you've created copper nano-particles and that they'd be useful for things like printing circuit boards. How hard is it to detect that you have true nano-particles?
I often wonder why supercomputer clusters aren't geographically distributed so the nodes can be used as space heaters. It seems such a waste putting them all together in the same room...
How else to claim that you actually have central heating?
Well the original theory was that the combination of 3 live vaccines given to the very young overloaded part of their immune system and screwed up their guts. The fix at the time was considered to be splitting up the MMR vaccine into 3 shots spread out a bit in time. I was quite interested as my son was one of the children who coincidently stopped talking and started acting different in the week following his second MMR shot. I'll also note he has had very rank farts most of his life. Later the weirdos with their mercury fetish became very vocal.
My son who is autistic started talking and became much more relaxed after cutting milk out of his diet. This was when he was in grade 1 and had only a couple of words and often became disruptive enough in class that he needed 2 strong men to remove him from class. Afterwards the odd time when someone did feed him diary I could tell right away by how he was acting out. Eventually his IQ also went from 80 to 120 except in communicating (speech and writing) where it stayed at 80. Not a cure but it sure improved his capabilities and functioning. Note that ethnically he is of stock that has no lactose digesting history so like the majority of people in the world should only have minimal diary anyways.
The American Revolution where it was normal practice to tar and feather the right wingers, steal their property through letters of attainment and do everything possible to drive them out of the country.
Try to keep up. There was a war back in the 1860's about whether Americans were citizens or subjects to the federal government. By forcing some of the subjects back into the union it was pretty well established that you're subjects to your government, denied basic rights like the right to leave the union. Citizens have basic rights such as in Great Britain where if Scotland decides to leave, they are allowed as long as it is done in a democratic manner. (There are still some subjects in the UK, namely Irish who didn't go along with leaving. Not citizens but still part of the country)
In the case of the government not being able to pass a budget, which can happen if no party has a majority in Parliament, she decides whether to give another party the opportunity to attempt to pass a budget or dissolve Parliament which forces an election. Also if a government refused to resign when constitutionally required (lost a confidence vote or 5 years since an election), she can also fire the government and force an election.
So, why is shrinking the federal government and taking away some of the powers it has given itself a bad idea, again?
In theory it is a great idea. In practice there is the question of who will fill the power vacuum, there are a lot of nut cases with power in the United States of America and given a sudden power vacuum who knows who might step forward to fill it.

Not many rural routes with mail vehicles left. This is in town where the mail people walk rather then drive.
He closed the Vancouver Marine Traffic Control Center while planning on increasing oil tanker traffic by at least an order of magnitude. He also closed Vancouver's Kitsilano coast guard station as it only did almost 300 (271 in 2011) rescues a year serving perhaps the busiest recreational harbour in Canada as the one at Sea Island was only 45 minutes away under ideal conditions. Should be easy to hold on for an hour when your boat flounders.

Hasn't there been amendments that extend the coverage of the Constitution? The 14th comes to mind
Perhaps Saudi Arabia would be a better example? Zero taxes and a very conservative government.
