2007-11-06 14:11 Proposed expansion of EU terrorism law a threat to freedom of expression
It must be asked why the welcome proposals on "practical action to stem the use of explosives" have taken so long to be put forward The Commission should focus on practical steps to improve cooperation between the Member States instead of trying to impose sweeping restrictions on freedom of expression. As part of its latest package of counter-terrorism measures the European Commission has tabled amendments to the 2002 EU Framework Decision on combating terrorism. The proposed amendments [Proposa …

2007-10-25 20:18 ˜Taleban with nukes No, but time is running out
By Bronwen Maddox (THE TIMES, 25/10/07): This has been a shatteringly bleak week for Pakistan, but not one that condemns it to being a failed state. The return of Benazir Bhutto, overshadowed by the bomb that killed 140, is a step forward. But although she has been championed in Europe and the US, she is a long way from being the solution to her country s savage problems. Pakistan dominates Britain s foreign worries, officials say, and they are right. It is not just that terrorism is on the incr …

2007-10-18 18:32 Portents of A Nuclear Al-Qaeda
By David Ignatius (THE WASHINGTON POST, 18/10/07): Rolf Mowatt-Larssen is paid to think about the unthinkable. As the Energy Department 's director of intelligence, he's responsible for gathering information about the threat that a terrorist group will attack America with a nuclear weapon. With his shock of white hair and piercing eyes, Mowatt-Larssen looks like a man who has seen a ghost. And when you listen to a version of the briefing he has been giving recently to President Bush and other to …

2007-10-13 22:08 Super intelligence is on its way!
For decades scientists, writers and visionaries have dreamt of a world in which robots make coffee for their bosses or even eradicate life on the planet. So far, we haven't succeeded in making these robots, although in Japan with the development of robots such as the Asimo this may not be far off. In the United States scientists are slowly waking up to the notion that the dream of artificial intelligence, which can teach itself, will one day be reality. Intelligent machines are abundant and they …

2007-10-09 04:47 UK Mom seeks hysterectomy for daughter with CP
In another case reminiscent of Ashley X, a mother seeks a hysterectomy for her 15 year old daughter who has CP, saying that it would be in the daughter's best interest, according to this BBC article. The director of Scope, Andy Rickell, disagrees, stating that : "It is very difficult to see how this kind of invasive surgery, which is not medically necessary and which will be very painful and traumatic, can be in Katie's best interests. This case raises fundamental ethical issues about the way ou …

2007-10-08 04:35 "For a start, we can acknowledge that it s their country"
A little while back, the esteemed anonymous blogger Abu Muqawama noticed an article by Maj. Gen. Charles Dunlap. Here is the gist of what Muqawama said: Right. The reason why the U.S. Army has stumbled in Iraq, folks, is because we didn't let the U.S. Air Force kill enough Iraqi civilians - because that's who he means when he uses the ghastly phrase "insurgent potentialities" - during the major combat operations. Had we just properly bombed the ever-living s–t out of the people we had come …

2007-10-06 20:38 Being Contrary with Turbogears
I promised to write up a report on my experiences building becontrary.com with Python and the TurboGears framework. An earlier post explains the concept of the site, and what it is intended for. I wanted to use Python to build a site, rather than something like php because Python has always made me significantly more productive as a programmer, and frankly because I am a huge Python fan-boy. Before I started on 'debate site', as I called it then, I dithered over which of the frameworks to use. T …

From the New York Times :"We have to be steered by values and morals," Mrs. Clinton said yesterday, and she pointed to guidelines drawn up by the National Institutes of Health during her husband's administration as a kind of "ethical framework" through which such work could advance. For example, she said, the use of embryonic stem cells to create tissue whose DNA is identical to that of an ailing person, a process called therapeutic cloning, "is within the ethical framework." There you have it. …

Following a White House call for approval of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the Senate seems heading toward ratifying this long defunct treaty. So what is the Law of the Sea Treaty, what does it do and should we support it Simply, the treaty defines who controls the seas and its resources and provides a mechanism for resolving disputes over those issues. A certain numbers of miles off the coast of a nation belong to that nation. A certain number of miles beyond that is a pr …

2007-10-01 18:53 Traditionnnn: A Critical Look at the Day of the Sun
My family had a big discussion last week with some people regarding the Sabbath issue. We thus received some refreshing persecution. :-) Here is a brief article I wrote on the subject. The idea of rest on Sunday does not appear in the Bible. Rather, the Bible teaches us to rest and honor our Creator on œthe seventh day: Saturday. This is not to be done as a means of salvation, but as obedience. Much as honoring of parents, baptism, or any other Biblical command, the seventh-day Sabbath acts as …

2007-09-11 19:26 The Encyclopedic Revolution
This excerpt adapted from Chapter 9, "The Encyclopedic Revolution." Despite the proliferation of books in the years after Gutenberg, three hundred years later books still remained prohibitively expensive for most Europeans. By the mid-eighteenth century, a typical educated household might own at most a single book (often a popular devotional text like the Book of Hours ). Only scholars, clergymen and wealthy merchants could afford to own more than a few volumes. There was no such thing as a publ …

There's been a few lawsuits floating through the legal system in Iowa, just waiting for an activist judge to strike down the Iowa Code that was passed by the an overwhelming mass of legislators, some of which are pretty notable and important in today's leadership picture.

How connected you are during your vacation A while back I asked " Is The Out Of Office Reply is Hurting Your Career " and got aggressively handled by some of the commenters. Ouch!! But the question is inherently linked to a recent article in the New York Times outlining IBM's innovative policy on letting knowledge workers take vacation anytime they want to, with no record keeping .
