Top of The Censorship League
As I go about my busyness here in China, I am gemused to read that the British Government has made more requests for content to be removed from Google last year than any other country in Europe (according to Google).
Google recently reported that between July and December 2009 it received 1,166 data requests from British government agencies, of which 59 were requests for content to be removed.
Google complied with 76.3% of the removal requests.
Globally, Britain ranks third in terms of data requests; behind Brazil (3,663) and the United States (3,580). Figures for China, where Google faced heavy censorship until withdrawing earlier this year, are unavailable.
How ironic!

Interesting figures.....I often wondered how many people in other oppressive nations knew how oppressed they actually were....I wonder how many people in Nanny's Utopia know just how much our government censor our media and the content thereof that ordinary people can receive.....Every Stalinist knows that if you control education and the media then you can control the population.....I wonder how far we have gone, so far, down that road.

Mena Aerospace appoints key consultants
Manama, September 11, 2011
Mena Aerospace Enterprises has appointed Dheya Towfiqi Consultancy Bureau (DTEB) as its chief consulting engineers and architects for its general aviation and hangar complex at Bahrain International Airport.
'DTEB brings a wealth of experience to the table, and numerous past success with similar projects,' Mena Aerospace managing director Dr Mohamed Juman said.
'We are placing significant pressure on our consultants in order to complete the project quickly as there is much interest in the market for the services which will be available at the hangar complex.
'We are certain that this project will continue the established momentum which Bahrain Airport Company and the Bahrain Civil Aviation Affairs have started towards making Bahrain a regional aviation hub.'
DTEB's assignment is to manage all aspects of the development, including design, subcontracting, oversight and handover management.
'We welcome this challenging assignment. This project is the first of its kind for the airport and the first in Bahrain,' DTEB founder and executive director Dheya A Aziz Towfiqi said.
'We appreciate the confidence Mena Aerospace has expressed in us through this appointment.
'Our experienced and seasoned team of professionals will bring this project in on time and on budget.
'It is usually a challenge to co-ordinate amongst all the stakeholders in a project such as this. But we are pleased and thankful for the attentiveness and professionalism of our colleagues at Bahrain Airport Company, Civil Aviation Affairs and Hochteif.'
Last year, Bahrain Airport Company signed a unique and key agreement with Mena Aerospace to build and operate one of the region's larger private and general aviation hangar complexes.
The deal involves Mena Aerospace investing in the development of a dedicated general and private aviation complex at Bahrain International Airport to provide comprehensive maintenance and support services to private and corporate aircraft.-TradeArabia News Service

New Gender Equality Duty will increase focus on effective diversity practices
The Gender Equality Duty that comes into force on 6 April 2007 will place the onus on public authorities to promote gender equality, in particular through effective recruitment strategies.
The new duty has been heralded as the biggest change in sex equality legislation in 30 years. Highlighting the practical implications for the recruitment industry, the REC Chief Executive Marcia Roberts says:
"The new Gender Equality Duty is the latest regulatory prompt for public sector employers to become increasingly proactive in promoting diversity and equality. Recruitment professionals supplying into the public sector must be aware of the new Duty and can play a key role by ensuring that recruitment procedures reflect these new obligations".
The REC earlier this year launched the new 'Diversity Assured' service as a follow-up to the award-winning REC/Jobcentre Plus Diversity Pledge. The new service will enable employers to identify and work with recruitment professionals who can demonstrate their commitment and ability to effectively delivering diversity through better recruitment practices.The Gender Equality Duty has been welcomed by The Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC), one of the leading equality organisations that supported the REC/Jobcentre Plus Diversity Pledge. Jenny Watson, Chair of the EOC, said:
"Leaders in our public services must use it to deliver services and employment practices that work equally well for women and men. It also means a major shift in employment practice across the public sector, tackling the barriers that prevent women from getting to the top such as lack of flexibility and ensuring that all areas of work are opened up to both sexes, bringing more men into professions such as primary school teaching, nursing and childcare."
Key Dates:
- 6 April 2007 – Gender Equality Duty comes into force across GB
- 30 April 2007– Gender equality schemes must be in place in England
29 June 2007 – Gender equality schemes must be in place in Scotland
Enforcement of the Gender Equality Duty. Public authorities must implement the gender duty. The EOC, and in the future, the Commission for Equality and Human Rights (CEHR) can enforce it in the courts .

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the next president of the United States won't be Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack.
While he's the first Democrat to officially declare his candidacy, presidential nominations don't have much to do with your place in line.
A poll of Democrats by Opinion Research Corp. rates Vilsack dead last in a field of 10 potential candidates. First and second, of course, are Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Third and fourth are Al Gore (sigh) and former Sen. John Edwards.
In Vilsack's favor: He's got good hair and he's well-liked in Iowa, whose caucuses traditionally launch the nominating season.

in consequence of the missive, Another Norton flub-up:, penned by nan duval
says that this means the early afternoon. I agree that it's strange that it's capitalized, but it doesn't make any sense in context if it's taken to be the street. I've seen, however, lots of examples of punctuation and capitalization in JA's writing (and other authors of the time) that is different from what we would do today, so I'm chalking it up to that. |

PHYSICISTS in Austria have achieved what was once considered impossible: the transfer of a physical property from one particle of light to another one, which could be billions of light-years away.
Dr. Charles H. Bennett of the I.B.M. Research Center in Yorktown Heights, N.Y., named this ''quantum teleportation'' when he and his collaborators came up with the scheme in 1993, even though no material object could ever be conveyed by the process. What is ''teleported'' (or sent as a message) is some property of a given quantum particle, like, for example, the angle of polarization of a photon of light.
Quantum particles -- tiny specks of radiation or matter, like photons, electrons, ions and atoms -- obey laws that seem very alien to the classical laws of physics that apply to larger-scale events in the everyday world. One tenet of quantum theory is that if two particles of the same type share identical quantum properties, they are indistinguishable. Thus, if the properties of every quantum particle in an object could be imposed on a distant, suitably arranged array of quantum particles, a perfect replica of the original object could be created -- in theory, even a flawless copy of a human being. (The original object or person would be destroyed by the process of measuring all its quantum parts.)

SAN MATEO, Calif., Oct. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pastry Smart LLC, announced the nationwide release of Le Culture Organic Handcrafted Artisan Bread Collection, available in leading distribution centers across the United States. Produced by Pastry Smart, Le Culture organic and American Humane Certified breads use a custom patented bake-able bread bag, allowing retail grocery stores and bakeries to offer a certified organic product to their customers.

"KeHE recognizes Pastry Smart as innovators in the world of bakery. Pastry Smart continues to impress us with their creative and cutting-edge organic products made with the highest quality ingredients. We value our close relationship with this esteemed brand and look forward to working together to advance the baking category," said Bob Johnston, Bakery Category Director, KeHE Distributors.
Unique 'Bake-able Bread Bag' Maintains Organic Integrity
Using an innovative, patented process, the 'bake-able bread bag' enables the retailer to keep the organic chain of custody intact, by baking the bread in a custom designed bag. With a perforated inner lining, allowing for ventilation, the bag is self-sealing heat activated in the oven during baking. These features allow for the bread to maintain freshness and a longer shelf life of up to four days.
Organic, Humane, Artisan Breads Fresh Daily, In-Store
Le Culture provides retailers, restaurants, and foodservice outlets with a selection of 13 different organic, American Humane Certified artisan breads. Available through distributors such as KeHE, Tony's Fine Foods, Bi-Rite Foodservice Distributors, Greenleaf Produce, and LA & SF Specialty, retailers across the United States, regardless of whether or not they have an organic certified bakery, are now able to offer organic to their customers, in-store, fresh daily.
"Le Culture is good for people and good for animals. When you buy Le Culture breads, you're buying from a brand that is completely sustainable from the beginning of the food chain," said Mark Ainsworth, President and Founder of Pastry Smart.
About Pastry Smart
Baking a difference since 2006, Pastry Smart (pastrysmart.com) focuses on creating and manufacturing organic and humane brands, bringing the organic bakery to retail markets nationwide. Pastry Smart is proud to be the first and only pastry, bread and confectionary producer to be American Humane Certified, an exclusive food supply chain that ensures humane animal husbandry, from farm to table. When ingredients use animal byproducts, those sources are only from farms that provide their animals with a humane and healthy environment.
As part of a commitment to quality, Pastry Smart focuses on sustainability, sourcing local ingredients wherever possible and infuses the traditional handcrafted elements of baking with state of the art manufacturing technology, using renewable energy sources.
With the artistry + innovation approach, Pastry Smart is disrupting the baking industry, marrying the disciplines of craft baking and science to bring local, organic value to retail and foodservice.

Geffen Playhouse, 10886 Le Conte Ave., Wstwd.; Mon., March 16, 8 p.m.; $50-$100; $125 VIP reception at 7 p.m. (818) 249 1428 or www.itsmyseat.com. —L.M.
Erik Davis, author and authority on Americana and arcana, discusses L.A.'s secret history of the occult, where "occult" means more than just yellow stars and green clovers — it means things that are occluded until unearthed by opened minds and weather eyes, in Occult Los Angeles: Esoteric Cinema in the Southland. He'll be showing a triptych of footage rooted in esoterica and the greater metropolitan Los Angeles area: everything from the secret messages in psychedelia like Frankenheimer's Seconds and Corman's The Trip to Maya Deren, the avant-Angeleno filmmaker who became a very real Señora la Reina de los Ángeles with her experimental short Meshes of the Afternoon. Joining Davis for this cinematic magical mystery tour is Jodi Wille, long the doyenne of all things WTF in L.A. culture, and leader of the recent séance that resurrected the Source Family and YaHoWa for a wider audience.
Wille promises news and ephemera from the Universal World Church (not to be confused with the Universal Life Church, they of the instant-ordination plan), Pentecostals ensconced in Central Los Angeles with a flair for high theatrics and extra shininess throughout. One never knows what Wille has up her learned sleeve — more on rocket scientist and staunch Crowleyite Jack Parsons? Something, perhaps, on Louise Huebner, the Official Witch of Los Angeles County and, in fact, the only officially appointed witch in the world?
Other wizards with whom you will confer and hobnob: filmmaker Kenneth Anger's associate Brian Butler, who vows to expose more about the witches of Los Angeles, Paul Nugent and the so-called "UFO religion" of the Aetherius Society, and Maja D'Aoust of the Philosophical Research Society, the "center for the study and teaching of the world's wisdom traditions." It's an evening that harks back to an earlier era in the Southland — pioneer spirit applied to new horizons: otherworldly, full of promise and adventure.

Today is St. Patrick's Day, or St. Paddy's Day, if you are a close friend of the patron saint of Ireland. Do not shorten it to St. "Patty's" Day, or you will get a ticket from the Weekly's resident stretch-leprechaun, Patrick Range McDonald. In honor of the Emerald Isle and chasing snakes and all that, here's an Irish joke: "How do you recognize a Kerryman on an oil rig? He's the one throwing crusts of bread to the helicopters." I don't get it either. Anyway, today would be a great day to see Irish musical madmen the Pogues, but they're in Washington, D.C. It's too easy to speak of singer Shane MacGowan in the past tense — sure, his heart's still pumping, but the guy should have been dead a long time ago. Stepping in with better livers and teeth are L.A.'s own Ollin, doing the Pogues doing Rum, Sodomy & the Lash in its entirety.
Says Ollin frontman Scott Rodart, "Ollin, since its inception nearly 15 years ago, has always been likened to the Pogues. We all were recovering East L.A. punk rockers who somehow found an affinity for Mexican folk music — the kind we used to make fun of! So we put down our beat-up electric guitars, turned off the Marshalls and headed out on that vagabond trail. I gotta say we love the poetry, the politics, the musical mastery. The Pogues themselves got a kick out of our Chicano interpretation of their landmark record, Rum, Sodomy & the Lash. Last year, St. Patrick's Day, they invited us to open their sold-out show at the Roseland theater in NYC." Ah, but this year they're at Spaceland in L.A.

LIzz Winstead: Wake Up World
Michael Stipe, Rachel Maddow, Anne Meara and Roseanne have been guests on Wake Up World, the morning-show spoof that's "America's only six-hour morning show" from Lizz Winstead and her comedy ensemble, Shoot the Messenger. Though based in New York, Winstead and Co. bring their show to the land of vapid starlets and Dr. Phil for two special installments. —Libby Molyneaux
L.A. WEEKLY: What inspired Wake Up World?
WINSTEAD: There are 23 hours of these shows on every day. I kept seeing four-minute segments like "Jewelry that makes your butt look smaller" and "Christian diet books." Add to that actual teases like, "Coming up in this hour, breast-cancer survivors and Cajun cookin'!" I thought to myself, Oh, my God, these people are so-o-o-o stretching to fill three hours of airtime and will find a way to sexify and commoditize even the most important stories. Just last week, I was watching CNN's morning show and they did an economic story that focused on how people cheating on their spouses are economizing by having sex in their cars and not in motel rooms. And now that The Today Show has given us Kathie Lee for a fourth hour? Morning shows seem ripe for satire.
What do you have planned for L.A. shows?

The bible is antiquated. Writen by men, not God, not Jesus.
Just a bunch of self serving men, who hated everything and had to control everything. They did this by scaring people. The bible, especially the old testament, is a horror story.
My God is loving of all the children he has created. Your God is one who put all of us on earth, but only the ones that have your "exact" beliefs will go to heaven. So he creates people to suffer and go to hell. Doesn't make much sense.
"President's visit helps Floridian explode on national scene"....
Really? Bet you ask anyone outside of our area and no one would have a clue what you were talking about. Most people around here don't know about that golf course.
They need to mandate that in order to get citizenship, they must speak English.
The fact that they refuse to learn English is dividing this country. In order for "North America" to continue being a world leader, we need a common language.
Keep your heritage, that's wonderful. But, please learn English. Otherwise this country is doomed.
Nice @DRB. We knew someone would make a dumb, spikeful comment. You're the winner!!
I guess you'd rather have an empty storefront at the mall?
I hope those losers that do text and drive realize that they are potential murderer's.
They drive worse than drunk people. I see it all the time to and from work on I-95. People on cell phones talking are just as bad.
I truly can't believe this. That area of PSL Blvd is a mess. There is already a station right next to this place, and they are just now reopening that eyesore at the corner of Bayshore with a Shell.
This just contributes to the terrible look of that area as people come off the turnpike.
@NolesWin, you were supposed to go take your mental medicine. Your mommy will be home soon, and you want to be lucid when she arrives.
The polls here show a large margin of vitory for our side on how dumb you make yourself sound.
You can't argue with those results, per your own admission.
In answer to this statement from you "I'm assuming you say I hate myself because I do not support gay marriage", that's not the only reason. I say you hate yourself because you are a closeminded pitiful excuse for a person and have a hard time accepting it.
Statistics from a one sided, right wing religious source, are not acceptable results for people that have their own thoughts.
You on the other hand, are again uneducated because you follow only one train of thought, with no power of self worth.
I truly feel bad for people like you with SO MUCH HATE FOR THEMSELVES, that they spew their crazy ideas onto others.
Love yourself, and you can love others.
In the meantime, I believe Glen Beck is on tv right now. He sees things your way, so go follow him and lower your IQ even more.
@NolesWin, you're pretty uneducated.
Those are not true facts at all. They come from some crazy religious base that your perversed way of thinking comes from.
By the way, my god is a loving god, not an angry one that you believe in.
Go follow your child mole$ter leaders that you seem to think are in the right.
Love Unity. It has filled my life with love that was missing. If you haven't attended a Unity Service, try it. Unless you're happy with a damning god. You will feel wonderful after attending.
Sorry Connie, that is the law. You are responsible for keeping your dogs in the yard, or on a leash when they are not.
Once they let Toyota in, I quit watching. What a joke that is.
Plus, starting about eight years ago the cars are all the same and don't even resemble the cars they are supposed to be.

Only a year for that? Are you kidding me. It was only luck he didn't kill the guy. Plus, he's already a convicted felon. I can't believe it.
Why does an ex-nanny deserve to have that much money. It's a joke. And then for her to spend that much on a house, just shows she was and is a gold digger.
in response to doubter: I used to be able to call my local walgreens,now you get a call center.Another corp. treating us like cattle.
in response to doubter:

I have never called my local Wlagreens and gotten a call center. That is an untruthful statement.
Non profit and she gets a $90,000 salary? Are you kidding me? She should give the 19k owed out of her pocket. That is a ridiculous salary for that position.
Why did my "market value" go up from 86k to 104k, while their's all depreciated? Something is not right here.
Nice thought, hope it works
Seriously, do we need another golf course? I am an avid golfer, and even I don't want to see this happen.
Just like Marinos course in Hobe Sound. Protected land, what do mean protected? Here's money on the side to get it pushed through. Just shows the rich can do what they want.
I believe it is because of my Noles kicking his rear end. It was the final straw. Family? His kids are out of the house now. A little too late on that one.
Wow Jigga_Man!!!! You just had to call the race card. He didn't say a da@n thing about race. I won't watch Oprah either, but gaurantee I am not a racist. I think you are the one who's a racist!!!!!
He was abused by his mother, father and brother? Sounds a bit odd. Can't say it didn't happen, but that's a whole lot of people. Unless the father made the mom and brother abuse him.
ChuckyCheez nailed it!!!!!!! LOL.
I love it!!!!!!! All that hyped up crap when they signed acting like thuigs still makes me want them to lose every game. Will that happen? No, but I sure enjoyed watching them go down last night.
Great job by the cop. We need to stop these kinds of things in the bud before PSL becomes another ghetto. It's bad enough to have to look at that dilapidated, overgrown gas station at the exit of the Turpike every day. We don't need to be seeing "gang type tags" all over the place. Regardless of all the put downs people make of PSL, we have had a fairly low crime rate. I hate to see that change.
Now let's beautify one of the main arteries into PSL. Remove that horrible, dilapidated gas station at the corner of the Turnpike exit, and replace it with plants and lanscaping. It just makes me feel like I am driving into the projects every day when I go to and come home from work. It's embarrassing.
One of the other reasons is because we have had one of the highest rates in the country the past few years. There are only so many homes. Just look around and see how many are empty and overgrown.
What, no "we're all going to die" from the weathermen?
in response to woodnwire: (This comment was removed by the site staff.)
in response to woodnwire:
Thank god NCAA football is back!!!!!!! I was going nuts. Go 'Noles!!!!!
She struggles for help while the government helps illegal aliens? That's f@#ked up.
Just more reason to implement a strong immigration bill. I guess the democrats don't look at data like this.
Shooter is an idiot. It has nothing to do with Obama. Plus, he doesn't even make sense.
Being that he is a police officer, he should have recieved the max sentence. I don't care if she was 17 and "almost legal". Someone in his position should be held to a hire standard. Once again the legal system goes light on a bad cop.
psl14life's statement is that of a loser that is jealous of people that are actually good folk. He is probably one of those that can't hold a job, complain about it, but spend what money they have on cigarettes and beer, rather than planning out how to live. Do us a favor and leave PSL if you don't like our community.
in response to JoeV: They must have found the Chinese drywall and decided to walk away before it was too late.

He's a loser, not a gang member. If he says he will retaliate against snitches, I guess he needs to take his mom out to.
akuze2000#251826, don't forget you also must always have your cellphone in hand. Agggresive driving, cellphones and not paying attention have made that area of I-95 very dangerous. I sure hope they catch the person. prayers to the family.
rivertown you are a loser!!! People like you are the reason we still have race problems. What happens if the acuser of whatever hapened is black? Then I guess "the white man" put that person up to it.
Now that's funny The_Rover!!!! And unfortunetly true.
Thank god they caught him before he took it to the next level. The ned result could truly have been bad, and may still be once he gets out of jail. Guys like this are f-ed up in the head, and have the potential to kill.
This is a waste of money with everything being so tight financially.
Here we go again. They have to wait until the end of a system to make a guess. I like that they predict an active year. That means we won't have any hurricanes. These guys can't predict any better than you or me.
GR8_W_Hope, that was a great line!!!!!!
Hopefully that punk Williams will have to go to jail since he is already a convicted felon. With that pretty tattooed face he may be pregnent by the time he gets out.
This punk will never amount to anything. Nice tats idiot. We need to get these a-holes out of here before they infest our area like Miami.
If they don't have the menu in English, it should not be touted so highly. Thanks for your part in helping us become a non English speaking country. I can't wait for the time when everything has to be in several languages for use to communicate.

GLENDALE -- After having what some might call a "quiet season," Coyotes forward Taylor Pyatt is making an impact at a very crucial time.
Pyatt's offensive production - nine goals and 10 assists in 73 regular-season games this season - was down from his 18 goals and 13 assists a year ago, but his play heated up at the tail end of this regular season and on Thursday he scored the team's first goal of the playoffs.
Pyatt returned from an injury on April 3 against Columbus, and he notched three points in the final three games of the regular season, including a two-goal performance in the regular-season finale last Saturday in Minnesota.
And now Pyatt has brought that momentum to the postseason. With the Coyotes trailing, 1-0, in the second period in their Game 1 match-up against Chicago in the Western Conference quarterfinals, Pyatt beat Blackhawks goaltender Corey Crawford, giving his team a huge shift of momentum en route to its 3-2 overtime victory.
"I was just trying to get in on the forecheck and I think their defenseman kind of lost his stick and tried to shovel it back to the goalie, and Lanks (forward Daymond Langkow) just made a real nice play from behind the net. I tried to get it up and over the goalie," Pyatt said. "It just feels good to score those playoff goals."
Coyotes Head Coach Dave Tippett talked after practice on Friday about Pyatt and the boost he gives the team when he's healthy and in the lineup.
"He's a good playoff player," Tippett said. "He plays big, hard minutes. He's good around the net. He hasn't had the numbers he had last year, but when he's had the opportunity to play, when he's been healthy, he's been a good player for us."
Pyatt, who is making his sixth career postseason experience, understands the type of hockey that's played in the postseason and is ready for the challenge.
"It's going to be a real tight, hard-fought series," said Pyatt, who has five goals and 10 assists in 42 career playoff games. "It's important not to get too high or too low during the series."

Actually the mistake is in the script proposed in the manpage. I notice that in some cases the statement printf " { code=%d jt=%d jf=%d k=%d }", \$1, \$2, \$3, \$4; causes an incorrect programming of the bpf filter. This happens when the "k" value exceed the MAX_INTEGER value as when, for example, the tcpdump expression refers a network where the the first octect is greater than 128. In that case the awk generates a negative value for "k" and the bpf matches always (I don't understand why, but it happens). >How-To-Repeat: This happens when the "k" value exceed the MAX_INTEGER value as when, for example, the tcpdump expression refers a network where the the first octect is greater than 128. (e.g . PATTERN="udp and dst net 255.255.0.0/16") >Fix: I tried to change the printf statement changing the format for using a conversion to unsigned (%u) but the poor result is to have the absolute value of "k" (so just deleting the minus) [this probably is a problem in awk]. Finallly, I've found that the working one format for the printg in the manpage is " { code=%d jt=%d jf=%d k=%s }" that preserves the right unsigned integer values. Hopefully this help some other novice... >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:

We appreciate you're keen to promote awareness of your guild, but the act of posting simply to bump a thread is considered spamming.
Anyone found to be bumping may have their thread deleted and be subject to a forum suspension. Please note that it is perfectly acceptable to update your threads with new information related to your recruitment, but posting just for the sake of bumping is not okay! Why bumping in the 'Looking for Players' forums is bad: If everyone is allowed to constantly bump their threads in the 'Looking for Players' forums, It creates a continuing and ever growing need for people to keep bumping threads. The ever increasing bumping of threads will flood the forums and make it much harder for players to find guilds of interest, which in turn will make it harder for guilds to attract new recruits, because the recruitment threads are less likely to be noticed by the potential recruits. If no-one is allowed to bump, the 'Looking for Players' forums move more slowly and there is less flooding. No bumping means that it is easier for potential recruits to get an overview of the guilds recruiting, and because there is less "noise" in the form of bump/spam posts, people will also be motivated to actually spend more time on the 'Looking for Players' forums as they are not discouraged from having to trawl through a ton of bump/spam posts to find the information they are looking for. |

Top Spin 3 is the latest tennis game to hit the Nintendo DS and aims to be the best of the lot. Succeeding where it's predecessor failed Top Spin 3 delivers a proper and playable Top Spin experience to DS owners. While the package is light in comparison to its bigger brothers it scores good points for being the only one that fits in your pocket.
To keep gamers entertained Top Spin 3 sports several familiar game modes. There is play now which lets you get right into the action and tournament mode which is essentially several play now matches in a row. There is also a career mode, multiplayer and eight mini-games to mix up the regular tennis formula. The main area you will spend your time playing in will be career mode.
The career mode lets you create your own professional tennis player and take them through a three year career. You may play as a male or female and select from a handful of shorts/skirts, shirts, rackets and hat/hair combinations. The much smaller list of customisation options compared to other Top Spin games is forgivable and even favoured; I personally never cared about selecting chin types and eyebrow colour. Week by week you will advance through the career mode opting to participate in one of three activities: training, attending special events or entering tournaments. These options vary in length but are usually only 'one week' long, which can take several minutes to half an hour depending on the event. Occasionally you will receive emails from your couch, sponsors or fans which reflect what has been going on in your career.
Training pits you against the same mini-games from the mini-game main menu option. Mini-games involve objectives such as opening trap doors so you can trap robot balls all the way to playing a game of tic-tac-toe by hitting the ball where you want to go. Successfully completing training challenges will award you points that are used to enhance your character's tennis skills, such as backhand, forehand, speed and precision. The mini-games are enjoyable short distractions though are extremely shallow.
The special events range from sponsored tournaments for winning new items to some mundane pictures that depict you as injured, depressed, on holidays, etcetera. Entering the major tournaments though is what you will want to do every time the option is available. Winning the tournaments allow you to progress up the ladder, giving you access to more exclusive tournaments, events and higher training levels. Not all three of these career options will be available to you each week, other times you will be forced to choose.
You may play as one of over 17 professional tennis players such as Boris Becker and Maria Sharapova, there are some exclusions from the roster but with the ability to create your own you won't worry too much. There are 14 tennis courts to play on ranging from the Amazon jungle to several famous tennis stadiums. Each one has its own visual identity and looks great, although many share the same background sounds.
Holding together the all the game modes is the same proven tennis system Top Spin is renown for. The four face buttons are mapped to standard swing, top spin, slice and lob. The R button is mapped to a power shot which requires perfect timing to be performed correctly and the L button for angle shots executed in the same manner as power shots. Additionally, the bottom screen can be touched to activate a boost for moving around the court more quickly. To win matches you must make proper use of all of these abilities while paying special attention to player positions on the court.
There is nothing wrong with how the Top Spin series has recreated the sport although the nature of hitting a ball back and forth is inheriting repetitive, and as such Top Spin is best played in short sessions. If the back and forth nature of tennis isn't enough to make you take a rest after an hour, the game's audio will certainly force you to. The lack of background music and the limited amount of sound bites means the audio is a barren wasteland of uninteresting sounds.
While the slimmed down custom character features are quite superficial, there is another more pressing omissions that deserves to be mentioned. The game contains no doubles events at all. Every mode in the game has two or less players on the court. This is presumably because of the underpowered nature of the DS hardware, but unfortunately this effects the diversity of game modes on offer. Another major absentee is online functionality, no online leaderboards or multiplayer at all. Quite disappointing given Top Spin 3 requires two copies of the game to be played in multiplayer. We could chalk this up to hardware limitations again, but in the end this really limits the game to being just a single player experience.
The new optional camera angle works wonders with the game's 3D engine, which boasts impressive animation, frame rate and attention to detail for a Nintendo DS game. The same controls and gameplay from the proven Top Spin series return and provides the same precision despite the handicap of the digital D-pad. Depending on your priorities, the extremely light weight nature of the DS version may be overshadowed by the convenience of owning a tennis game on a portable platform. Like all games based on the sport it is repetitive, but it offers strong tennis gameplay to those who want it.

John Stossel: On hearing NSA revelation, I shrugged
Some perspective:
We are less closely watched by government than citizens of other countries. There are about 3,000 government security cameras around New York City, but London has 500,000.
It does make a difference if cameras are controlled by a city government or a private department store. No store can lock me up. But I hate to get bogged down in the surveillance debate when there are so many other ways that government clearly threatens our freedom and our finances, while accomplishing nothing.
Within a few hours, I had a list of 100 — it was surprisingly easy. I encourage you to start a list of your own. Here are just a few example of horrible, destructive government:
• Government runs up a $17 trillion deficit and yet continues to throw our money at things like $100 million presidential trips, million-dollar bus stops and pork projects, as well as thousands of programs that don't work.
• It spends your money on corporate welfare. And farm subsidies. And flood insurance that helps higher-income people like me build homes in risky spots.
• I'm furious that there are now 175,000 pages of federal law. No one understands all the laws, but they keep passing more. How dare they!
NSA spying seems less horrible than these other abuses, especially if data mining might prevent terrorism.
I don't suggest that we should be passive about data mining and surveillance. But we should not let the latest threat make us passive about the old ones, some of them much more clearly wrong.

Joe McQuaid's Publisher's Notebook: War photos and salty language
This is definitely where a picture is worth a thousand words, minimum. Almost all of the photos are iconic, like the one of the little girl running from a napalm attack. Some clear up misconceptions, like that same napalm photo. (Many people think it was an American air attack. It was in fact a South Vietnamese mixup.)
Okay, "BS" was actually spelled out, as two words, in fact. One was "bull."
This caught my eye, as did the fact the writer had the Moxie to identify himself, which I appreciate.
He shouldn't be. The changes mean we reduce the Saturday night printing most weeks to just two main sections, including live news and sports. It means less chance of longer press runs on a night when our carriers are delivering the biggest package of the week to readers across the state.
The realignment also puts our Sunday editorial pages in the same section as business news. This also upset my "BS" writer, though he didn't say why. It seems to me a good place for editorial commentary, but the reader said that "Bill Lobe" was going to be waiting for me in the next life and I wouldn't like it much.
Rumor has it that autumn has arrived. That means the Deerfield Fair must be coming this weekend. I think I'll take Ike, Mike, and Spike. They might have a few comments to make on the fair.
