Should cigarette counters be banned?
Under new proposals set out by the government, displaying cigarettes in shops could soon become illegal in a bid to discourage children starting smoking as well as hopefully cutting the amount of smokers in the UK.
According to the BBC, Ministers are also considering tighter controls on vending machines in pubs and restaurants, with the public also getting to voice their opinions over the coming months.

Always More to See in The Castro
I've been wondering for awhile... how is it that the Castro is the only neighborhood I've been to in the United States where it seems to be all right to have pornographic images pasted in storefront windows? Even when I lived in NYC, I remember a controversy about an adult toys store that was coming to my neighborhood. The only thing that a store like that is prohibited to do is show inappropriate images, etc. in the window (so that kids walking by aren't indecently exposed), which is why those places normally have tinted, colored, or covered windows.
