Every time I run on a trail I come behind someone to pass them and they don’t hear me and get startled. I’ve decided I need a bicycle bell app on my Apple Watch, where the bell rings when you spin the little dial. Does this exist? Who can I pay to create this ingenious product?

[Virginia Annable @annablevl]

Who will pay me for this idea, which is sure to be the best big app.

'It’s an unholy mess'; North Carolina's alcohol control law built on shaky ground https://t.co/u3Xh7zofc5

A critic of the system said the number of boards is cumbersome. “They (the boards) each have infrastructure. They have staff. They have overhead costs. And they are all government employees. They're all on the government till." https://t.co/qHJ7QA0HCk

About 30 boards did not provide the requested compensation information. Several refused outright. The law says the boards are divisions of the state and fall under public records laws, which deem employee salaries as a public record.
