OPINION . Ours

Editor's Letter
It's a four-letter word, but only technically
by Duane Swierczynski
My apologies, Ma'am. But I actually meant it as the highest form of respect. Nerds do their homework. Nerds are ridiculously dependable. Nerds pay attention to details. Nerds are obsessed with getting it right.

Slant
It's not about you wanting an iPhone; it's about the iPhone wanting you.
by David Dritsas
These days, there's almost nothing that can limit how, when or where content is delivered. Want to access your local cable channels while on vacation? Hook up a Slingbox to your laptop! Can't miss Dr. Phil while driving the kids to soccer practice? A new device from Pioneer will let you watch it in the car.

Loose Canon
"If I want to stop that problem, I'll dress like a cop or a businessman, and carry my gun in a briefcase."
by Bruce Schimmel
In my experience, being patted down for a weapon is no big deal. Everyone gets a quick frisk each time they enter a store in Israel, where they do security right.

OPINION . Yours

What You Say
The exit interview with John Street shows him to be the same rude, ignorant, small-minded little man he's always been. | There is example upon example across the country of white racist gangs who have attacked people of color that never get reported or became "a national scandal." | ow could Bonté be left off the list of everything we Philadelphians love about Belgium?
