...Peer says her most powerful weapon is that she's "strong, mentally." Most likely, it won't be the Arab spectators in Qatar who test her mettle but a formidable tennis rival, the glamorous Russian Maria Sharapova.

Sixteen of the borough's 84 surveillance cameras have been wired for sound, making London's first video monitoring network with a broadcasting capacity. A second borough, Southwark, will soon adopt the same system...

I have personally seen the difference between a well-maintained weapon and a poorly maintained one. In short, the former works. Soldiers who expect to clean their weapon once a week, or only after firing, are begging for disaster...
