Impromptu Banned Books Week Carnival
http://timpanogos.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 10/ 04/ impromptu-banned-books-week-carni…

Banned Books Week flies by way too fast. So many banned books, so little time. Was it appropriate for Sarah Palin’s only debate with Joe Biden to come in Banned Books Week? Or, was it fate?

Wikileaks: an uncensorable Wikipedia for untraceable mass document leaking and analysis. No. 10.1.2008. 167.

Vigilante book banners
http://timpanogos.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 10/ 01/ vigilante-book-banners/

As we ponder how to keep freedom in America in the middle of Banned Books Week, I worry about the dangers of vigilantes acting to effect a ban on a particular book, despite official actions. How to fight these anti-reading, anti-American vigilantes? People in Lewiston, Maine, came up with the fantastic idea of simply buying more books.

The NSW Police Force
http://therabexperience.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 09/ nsw-police-force.html

It seems that having a criminal conviction is no bar to getting into the NSW Police Force. A Freedom of Information request has uncovered that 133 current serving officers have criminal convictions. This makes up less than 1% of the total number of officers serving in the Force of some 15,200 officers.

FORUM: FREEDOM vs PROTECTION, PUBLIC vs PRIVATE Central Market Annexe, KL
http://www.bangkit.net/ 2008/ 09/ 27/ forum-freedom-vs-protection-public-vs-priv…

These are the fundamentals issues in the debate of the right to freedom of information. Does free flow of information by default guarantees good governance? Should the state be protected by some degree of secrecy? Would a society that operates on the principle of freedom of information threaten to expose the privacy of individuals?
