Arguments I will point out again, and again if necessary. Amazon has a choice. They can choose to lower or completely stop discounting books that offer them only a 20-39% discount. They can accept the fact that, on the bookselling side of this equation, they are a retailer and accept 40% off list, standard, like every other bookseller. In other words, they can quit trying to put the brick-and-mortar bookstores out of business and play fair. They apparently haven't chosen to be fair, to compete on a level playing field. In my mind, this puts their honesty in question. On the printing side of things, Amazon can quit acting like a two-bit thug and clean up BookSurge's act, the quality issues, that sort of thing. They could strive for the best, most consistent quality and lower their prices a notch, and compete--fairly and honestly.

Fight fans fall for Borat stunt?

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Crowds in Arkansas came for the lure of cage fighting and $1 beer, but police say what they got instead was men ripping each others’ clothes off and kissing — a stunt suspected of being orchestrated by Sacha Baron Cohen of “Borat“ fame.

Hummus-Based Humor Aplenty

Last week, a former Mossad official began his column for The Forward, “What Kind of Interviewer Confuses Hamas and Hummus?� The answer, he soon revealed, was one that has built a reputation for fooling people just like him. Sacha Baron Cohen, the actor behind Borat, had struck again in a different disguise: Bruno, a gay Austrian fashion expert. Until May 2009, when Universal reportedly plans to release the film, there’s a strikingly similar combination of comedy, Mideast violence and the appetizing dip in Adam Sandler’s “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan.� It has “more hummus-based humor than you might have thought possible,� according to A.O. Scott of The New York Times. Have these two comedians found the key to laughing about such a sensitive subject?

Police in Belleville, Ill., said a man who was jailed several times for stealing women's socks has been arrested again and charged with a similar crime.

Reviews: Soul Calibur 4

Buzz up!As someone who’s ­- as the years march on -- become less interested in how utterly hardcore a fighting game can be and more concerned with how a game can move the genre forward, I’m glad to say that Soul Calibur 4 achieves both. Balanced and feature-rich, SC4 improves on the groundwork of core fighting mechanics laid in the series’ previous iterations while giving players a virtual fighting sandbox. Returning characters are tweaked so that they still feel familiar yet fresh, with new moves and chains to which you’ll find yourself saying, "Wow, [character name] is a badass this time around" over and over again. All of the returning vets -- Mitsurugi, Voldo, Raphael, Taki, and so on -- retain their signature play styles, but each receives worthwhile adjustments.

Gay Man Wins Suit For 'Disabled' Label

Leonard Cohen, Lara Logan, Madonna

The singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen has returned to the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland for his first concert there in 23 years. Cohen played his hits "Suzanne" and the much-covered "Hallelujah," as well as the lesser-known "The Future." The four-time Grammy winner Erykah Badu opened the event. Joan Baez, k.d. lang and Sophie Hunger played an all-female night, while Herbie Hancock, Al Jarreau, Chaka Khan and Angelique Kidjo will perform at a 75th birthday celebration for the music impresario Quincy Jones on July 14. Alicia Keys, Lenny Kravitz, Paul Simon and Pete Doherty's band Babyshambles will also be playing at Montreux. Organizers say they expect 220,000 people to visit the festival, which opened last week and ends July 19.

Heavy Rain's David Cage Has Strong Faith in PS3

PS3fanboy.com writes, David Cage likes to talk a lot -- especially when 'Uncanny Valleys' are involved. So, it shouldn't come as surprise to see a seven page discussion with the Heavy Rain developer over at Gamasutra. Cutting down to the most relevant bits, Cage solidified Quantic Dream's decision to develop solely for PS3: "Honestly, working on one platform is the best thing we could dream of, and it's a choice."

NetShare Pulled From iPhone App Store (Again)

We've been wondering how the people behind NetShare get their app approved by Apple for the iPhone App Store. It adds the ability to tether your laptop to your iPhone, using the handset's 3G modem as your laptop's own, meaning you can go pretty much anywhere you can find a decent signal and have full Internet access on your laptop without Wi-Fi, all for free. And then the app was pulled from the store. And then it was back. And now it's gone again. Hopefully you were lucky enough to grab it while it was available, because we're not sure Apple's going to let it out again.

Third Test: Nel strikes again

As if two miserable sessions were not enough, England haplessly added a third as South Africa took control, redeeming themselves only in small part by claiming the wicket of the visiting captain, Graeme Smith, in the 11 overs they had to bowl at the close. This match may be only one day old but already the tourists, who will clinch the series with victory here, must be feeling pleased with themselves already.

Mars' Sticky Soil Strikes Again

NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander scraped up some icy soil with its robotic arm and scoop and then attempted to quickly deliver the sample to the oven on board. But not enough soil made it to the oven; the icy soil stuck to the scoop. Engineers determined the rasping and scraping activity collected a total of 3 cubic centimeters of icy soil, more than enough to fill the tiny oven cell of the Thermal and Evolved-Gas Analyzer, or TEGA. However, images returned from the lander Saturday showed that much of the soil remained lodged in the robotic arm's scoop after the delivery attempt. "Very little of the icy sample made it into the oven,� said Barry Goldstein, Phoenix project manager. “We believe that the material that was intended for the targeted cell is the material that adhered to the back of the scoop.

iPhone Roundup: China Mobile Clears Hurdle; Canadians Want Cheaper iPhone; Hutchisons Prices

image — China Mobile-iPhone “Hurdleâ€� Cleared: The on again, off again talks to bring iPhone to the world’s largest mobile market is on again. Retuers reports that China Mobile will bring the iPhone to China, after Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) relented on its revenue sharing policy. China Mobile spokeswoman Rainie Lei said while the “the biggest hurdleâ€� for the largest Chinese mobile operator has been now been cleared, there were still some “practical issuesâ€� to sort out before the iPhone launched. No timetable has been given, but Apple CEO Steve Jobs has said before that he hopes to launch the device in China later this year.

Music Education With Linux Sound Tools, Redux

"I see fewer commercial CDs these days, again due to the greater popularity of the iPod and similar hardware players. The commercial audio CD may not exactly be doomed, but it is certainly under fire from the new media player technologies. I don't see much use of the DVD as a sharing format (the iPod strikes again ?), but I have seen some excellent video productions on DVD from a few students. I expect to do more with the format, as both storage and playback medium, but I doubt that it will gain significant ground against the portable players."

Live Blogging VI: Other Life Issues

Thanks a lot for your wonderful article. It strikes me because it’s based on a life journey, not an intellectual black or white / good or bad demonizing-the–other simplistic fight over arguments. I remain however puzzled on why so many pro-life committed Christians seem so less enthusiastic, to say the least in some cases, in fighting for other social issues of the pro-life teachings of the Church (e.g. the death penalty, arms trade, debt relief to third world countries, the lies of the anti-terrorist propaganda, social and economic rights, the plight of the poor, migration issues and so forth). Again: do we really embrace the teachings of the Church as a whole? Or are we retaining the pick and choose mentality while showing ourselves self-righteously pro-life? What do you think of this?

AN APOLOGY FOR SLAVERY. WOW. I DO BELIEVE IT'S TOO LATE.

So... the House of Representatives has apologized for the enslavement and dehumanizing of African peoples in America and the vicious inequality of Jim Crow. Â Wow. Â I'm not sure what to think. Â I could certainly dovetail into Rep. Steve Cohen's obvious agenda to win votes in his predominately black district in Tennessee on August 7 over his high-profile black running mate Nikki Tinker, or that last year Cohen wanted to become the first white member of the Congressional Black Caucus, but I won't. Â The apology has been approved, Cohen spearheaded, and let's talk about that.Â
