Counterfeit computer parts from Communist China installed in government computers: According to ABC News, the fake Communist exports "were sold to the U.S. Naval Academy, U.S. Naval Air Warfare Center, U.S. Naval Undersea Warfare Center, the General Services Administration, the U.S. air base in Spangdahlem, Germany -- which is home to the Air Force's 52nd Fighter Wing -- and defense contractor Raytheon." These agencies (and Raytheon) "thought they were getting top-notch products from Cisco" (Also reporting: IDG News via Yahoo).

Olympic news and commentary: As the torch entered and left Xiamen (BBC), uneasiness about the Communist Olympiad continues.

The Epoch Times has several pieces: Pam McLennan on human rights as the Games approach, Feng Changle on the militarism surrounding them, and Thomas Kleiber comparing 2008 to 1936.
