...that point was a grim one, made with a mixture of anger and exasperation and a plea for more federal help. Nearly two years after Hurricane Katrina cut its destructive path through the Gulf Coast, the NOPD has found little relief. Six FEMA trailers make up its headquarters. The traffic department and SWAT team also call several double-wide units home. Seventy-two officers have left the force this year. Of the 1,200 that remain (down from 1741 before the storm), there is only a single fingerprint examiner and only one expert firearm examiner. This year, the deadliest city...

...center of the storm, beneath a consistently positive manner. This woman is never, seemingly, out of control. How difficult that must have been is underscored by Winterbottom's portrayal of Karachi. The word "teeming" does not begin to describe this huge and jumbled urban mass, this warren of narrow traffic-clogged streets. Who is a friend? Who is an enemy? Who is corruptible, who is not? The idea of finding a kidnapped man in that environment seems to us hopeless...

...eBay's retaliatory measure has proven surprisingly revealing. It turns out that eBay can generate a lot of traffic from Google even without bothering to advertise. A quarter of the search traffic Google sends to eBay comes from people typing in terms like "ebay.com" into Google's search box, rather than from ads paid for by eBay, according to research firm Hitwise. And given that Google's ad policy prevents it from placing rivals' ads when users type in "eBay," the auction site gets a decent showing on Google even without paying for it and without rivals' ads cluttering...

Having dubbed itself the land of Smiles, Thailand tends to go out of its way to avoid confrontation. The capital's infamous traffic jams, for instance, rarely lead to the kind of road rage that strikes other cities. Yet this past week, the Southeast Asian kingdom showed the world a rather less peaceful visage. Protests against Thailand's ruling junta spilled onto Bangkok streets last weekend, with an estimated 13,000 demonstrators calling for the resignation of the generals who masterminded a bloodless coup against Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra last September. The marches, which sometimes erupted in clashes with...

...appears that at this early stage in the campaign candidates are relying mostly on organic search results - in other words, they aren't buying any significant search-term advertising to boost their traffic from search engines. Watching the latest round of political debates, I've become a little skeptical of both side's commitment to their political platform. If candidates feel so strongly about the top issues of the day, then perhaps they should purchase keywords on those issues to stake out their positions. If a candidate wants to broadcast a position on abortion, why not purchase the term "abortion...
