“Cool Stuff”

EDMONTON — An Edmonton entertainment company has lost its initial bid to block the sale of certain TV set-top boxes by four major retailers.

Allarco Entertainment, who owns and operates Super Channel Entertainment Network, was seeking to stop the sale of those boxes.

It also alleged that staff at four major retailers — Staples, Best Buy, London Drugs and Canada Computers — were encouraging customers to use the boxes to access pirated programming.

I’ll be cutting the cable cord shortly as I need to cut expenses, bought an antenna, bought, to my horror, a Firestick which works OK frankly, and K had a Roku on her TV.

A sheriff’s department in the US state of Alabama has come under fire over a Facebook photo showing a Christmas tree adorned with mugshots of suspects.

It called the decorations “thugshots” in a Facebook post on Thursday that drew thousands of negative comments.

Local civil liberties groups have described the post as “despicable”.
