FDA: Give dying cancer victims Ecstasy

FDA: Give dying cancer victims Ecstasy 12/28/2004 06:55 AM
Cory Doctorow: The FDA has approved research into whether Ecstasy should be used in palliative care of terminal cancer patients to ease their final days.

The Food and Drug Administration has approved a pilot study looking at whether the recreational hallucinogen can help terminally-ill patients lessen their fears, quell thoughts of suicide and make it easier for them to deal with loved ones.

"End of life issues are very important and are getting more and more attention, and yet there are very few options for patients who are facing death," Dr John Halpern, the Harvard research psychiatrist in charge of the study, said.

The small four-month study is expected to begin early next spring. It will test the drug's effects on 12 cancer patients from the Lahey Clinic Medical Centre in the Boston area. The research is being sponsored by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, a non-profit group that plans to raise 250,000 (-184,816) to fund it.

Mutilation of victims and Muslim law

Mutilation of victims and Muslim law 06/13/2004 12:02 PM
Mutilation of victims and Muslim law The ruling by Sheik Omar Abdullah Hassan al-Shehabi specifies two circumstances in which the desecration of an infidel -- a non-Muslim -- is permitted. One is retaliation "when the enemy is disfiguring Muslim corpses or when it otherwise serves the Islamic nation." The other is when mutilation will "terrorize the enemy" or "gladden the heart of a Muslim warrior."

More Scam Victims Who Don't Believe
They've Been Scammed 04/28/2004 11:40 AM
Last year, we wrote about a man in Florida who gave all of his money to Nigerian scammers and still refused to believe he had been conned. It seems like this is fairly common. Over in Switzerland, police tried to explain to someone why the $115,000 he had sent to Nigeria was never going to be seen again, and he refused to believe him. Despite plenty of evidence being presented to him, six months later he was found sending another $38,000 to Nigerian scammers. There's a point at which you wonder if some of these people almost deserve to lose their money.

Should We Blame Security Victims?

Should We Blame Security Victims? 04/28/2004 04:49 AM
There is always something of a back and forth on who to blame whenever a big virus goes around. Is it the fault of a company like Microsoft for not creating their software in a way to better protect against such things? Is it the fault of anti-virus software vendors who are always a step behind the latest virus? Or, is it the fault of the end-user who is convinced to click a strange attachment despite thousands upon thousands of warnings not to? Walt Mossberg recently wrote a column calling for techies to stop blaming the victims. Instead, he blames Microsoft and calls on them to create a one-stop shop for protecting end-users from any and all security problems. Now, Tim Mullen has struck back and pointed out that people should stop being victims if they want to use computers and the internet. He points out, first of all, that Mossberg's vision of the perfect security protection system is impossible. Furthermore, he explains that no one is expecting end users to become system administrators, but to just do a few basic things to secure their computers from the most obvious of malicious attacks by installing basic anti-virus and firewall software (though, these days, you also need anti-spam software, anti-spyware software and anti-phishing software to really be complete). Mullen's point, however, is that we expect a basic level of competence to drive a car without hurting themselves, or to cook meat without giving themselves food poisoning. Thus, is it really that much to ask users to secure their own computers? The answer, of course, probably lies somewhere in the middle. Software companies and, increasingly, internet service providers, are going to be expected to do more to stop malicious attacks in their tracks - but end users should be expected to handle basic protection of their own machines. Besides, if we really must blame someone for all these malicious attacks, shouldn't it be those who are actually creating them?
