8. I had no idea it was like this:
"Parts of Sydney have effectively become a ghost town with a huge steel and concrete fence sealing off an exclusion zone where leaders of the 21 Pacific rim economies will meet over the next few days."

"Armed police are patrolling the streets and the harbour waters, helicopters buzz constantly overhead and snipers have set up in key positions, much to the frustration of Sydney residents who have complained of draconian measures."
