A powerful personal testament from Tom Bowman of NPR about the Pentagon attempt to exert complete control over all information. Protecting classified is of course fine. But when neither Fox News nor NY Times sign up to your policy, you should ask yourself if you are getting something very wrong.

I get my coffee from Balzac in Canada - and now they are no longer shipping to the U.S.

I have a friend in Canada that I hope will be willing to ship me coffee when I finally run out.
