Maye has plead guilty to a reduced charged of manslaughter, and has been resentenced to 10 years in prison, time he has already served. He’ll be sent to Rankin County for processing. He should be released and home with his family in a matter of days. Cory Maye’s is a story about a paramilitary-style drug raid gone grotesquely wrong, a cautionary tale about the human costs of the War on Drugs, and a lesson in how a dedicated investigative reporter can throw a wrench in the ever-grinding wh...

A couple of volunteers from the JDRF have been organizing this group for the last 18 months, though this was only my second meeting.  I'm making it a priority to get to more of these because the two I have attended have been really valuable.  The guests were Tom & Patty Cartier. Their son, Cory, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 18 years ago.  As parents, they are giving all they have to make sure he is cured and no longer has to wrestle with diabetes.  We will all benefit from their hard work and dedication to their son.

In sports, one would expect a certain level of smack talk on the playing field. Most of it is meant to incite the other team’s players, so that they react and play more emotionally. A player who plays from anger rather from their rational mind is likely to make more mistakes, so goes the common wisdom. Where do we draw the line on the playing field? Nobody would think about insulting another player because...

Although the cancer’s stage was not disclosed, Mrs. Aquino underwent her first round of chemotherapy yesterday (Tuesday). This all happened at the Makati Medical Center where Mrs. Aquino was confined and earlier diagnosed with colon cancer. All our prayers…hopefully will help. All the best!

Aquino - former (and first woman) President of the Philippines, has colon cancer. The condition of Mrs. Aquino (fondly called Cory) was recently revealed by her family. Former president Corazon Aquino is suffering from colon cancer and is in a hospital, her family said Monday. Aquino’s daughter Kris, a people television host and actress, read a statement on television saying the cancer was discovered when the former president went to have a check up. A weeping Kris, with her brother, Senator Benigno Aquino III beside her, said their family is asking for “compassion and prayers for our Mom’s recovery.” Compassion, prayers and more — are what she’ll definitely get from the Filipino people and (hopefully) the rest of the world.

It is a space where free speech and self-expression prevail. At Speakers' Corner, anyone can say anything they like about anything they want to anyone who cares to listen. There are some obvious parallels between blogging and Speakers' Corner as well as one rather striking difference. read more (Source: nodalpoint.org - A bioinformatics weblog) nodalpoint.org - A bioinformatics weblog blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1109825 Fri, 21 Dec 2007 11:06:34 +0100 1109825 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=1062877&cid=t_104535_132_f&fid=35001&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nodalpoint.org%2F2007%2F11%2F30%2Fburn_semantic_web_burn Taking down A.I. town? The Semantic Web is (quote) "a new form of Web content that is meaningful to computers". It will "unleash a revolution of new possibilities" using a magical "new" artificially intelligent technology called ontology. So says a much-cited article in Scientific American published back in May 2001. Most people who have read this article, fall into two camps: "believers" and "non-believers".

That was the big social networking site a few years ago. Or how about Myspace? No? Then maybe you’re repeating history and you don’t even realize it as you fill out your Facebook profile and think, “Wow, this is so cool!” Cory Doctorow has an excellent article entitled, How Your Creepy Ex-Co-Workers Will Kill Facebook, which explains why Facebook will be just another piece of social networking roadkill on the information superhighway in a few years. The primary point he makes is that social networking sites are great when only your friends are on it. But once it becomes popular enough, it starts attracting everyone else who isn’t necessarily your friend… Your boss, the co-worker you hang out with but don’...
