David Beckham (2)

The Pentagon, and to a lesser extent the CIA, have been using a little-known power, to look at the banking, and credit records of hundreds of Americans, and others suspected of terrorism, or espionage, within the United States.

Air force helicopters on Saturday started evacuating dozens of sick and wounded people, from the central tea growing region in Sri Lanka, where landslides have killed at least 17 people.

David Beckham won't play again for Real Madrid, after announcing his departure at the end of the season for the Los Angeles Galaxy. I hope David doesn't forget his true fans, who are living of course outside the U.S.A.

Those were the headlines for today. Poor losers, that is what you can call Real Madrid. Real Madrid's coach decided that he would not let David Beckham play again for his club, after David made it known that he would move to California at the end off this season. Audiences expect him to play, that's why they pay a large amount of money. Real Madrid should expect him to play as well, as they still pay him a lot of money. Saying that my dear David would be somewhere else with his mind, or legs, is silly. And not to have a final game with my David on European soil is unforgiveble.

And did you know that the Americans, and more to the point, the Department of Defence and the CIA can check your bank records, or credit status if you live there? And they don't need a court order for that. Loads and loads of people are being investigated. And only a few of them, if any at all, will turn out to be terrorists or spies. So what happened to their privacy? What can you do to protect yourself from those snooping agencies? Who decides if you are a terror suspect?

But as usual, I really, really don't care whatever you do, for whatever reason, as long as you don't forget to love a soldier. Love, Jenifer Bloom. bloomjenifer@yahoo.co.uk
