| Title: To tip or not to tip? |
| Author(s): |
| Ref: One website in particular, the bbc h2g2 guide on tipping, states that not tipping waiting staff is simply rude, although from talking to staff at Cafe Uno in Bath, it seems that more often than not restaurant staff get the best deal compared to a lot of other service workers, such as chambermaids, kitchen porters and junior chefs. This website argues that not getting your steak cooked properly, the hotel bathroom not cleaned properly, the kitchen running out of your favourite dish, or being seated next to a table of smokers or noisy children, should not be reasons not to tip. It even goes so far as to say that if the waitress happens to spill some soup on your lap or forget something you ordered, then you should still tip her, and never less than ten per cent. |

If the Pentagon was a symbol of American military power, then both McDonald’s and the World Trade Center were symbols of American economic power; there was only a difference in scale in an attack on an individual McDonald’s.

The simplest of beach games, requiring just a cricket bat, a tennis ball, a fair-sized playing space and a host of players of all ages and levels of ability. On the web, however, it is far from simple. An entry on H2G2, the BBC's user-edited encyclopedia, describes the game at length but misses out key elements - such as the batsman being allowed to move his feet only when he hits the ball, and the fact that the aim is not to score runs, but to stay in. Hmm. Controversy is brewing. |

| Article: To live in interesting times - VAT and Interest |
| Author(s): Mitchell Moss (Dorsey & Whitney) |
| Ref: It is a commonly held view that the phrase “may you live in interesting times” is an ancient Chinese curse. It is a phrase frequently wheeled out by the media or politicians when apparently significant but not particularly welcome events take place. A modest amount of research reveals that the phrase was first brought to public attention by Robert F Kennedy in a 1966 speech in Cape Town. It has also been traced even further back to a story in Astounding Science Fiction Magazine in 1950. Somewhat surprisingly, one place to which the phrase has not been traced is China, ancient or modern. Indeed, as it says on the BBC h2g2 website with gentle irony, “most Chinese scholars will not recognise the 'curse' as Chinese, because if it is of Chinese origin, it has somehow escaped mention in all of the ancient Chinese literature”. |

Everyone has the right to follow a religion, but no one has an obligation to do so. 3. Religious education at school is strictly forbidden. 4. No new religious symbols are to be placed in public places, including cemeteries. (www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A2903663)" |
