U.N. Balks at Cloning Ban







U.N. Balks at Cloning Ban

U.N. Balks at Cloning Ban 12/10/2003 05:45 AM

The United Nations postpones a decision on cloning for a year instead of banning the procedure outright. Stem-cell researchers, who believe the science will lead to medical treatments, hope the year will be fruitful. By Kristen Philipkoski.

Netgear Balks on WPA Certification for
Some Gear


Netgear Balks on WPA Certification for
Some Gear
03/08/2004 11:15 PM
Just after the Wi-Fi Alliance touted how many companies have received certification for the WPA security specification, some vendors are suggesting they may not seek certification for some products: Going forward, the Wi-Fi Alliance requires WPA for any product to be certified. Netgear said that while it plans to certify ts products that target business users, the company is not sure if it will submit its consumer devices for certification because consumers are happy with the more basic security mechanisms. This story points to Belkin and SMC as other vendors that haven't certified their gear. But Belkin says that its products support WPA but just haven't been certified yet. Netgear is the only company this story cites as balking on certifying some of its gear to meet WPA requirements. The Wi-Fi Alliance bragged in February that 175 products had been certified for WPA since September 2003. While it would be a concern if a bunch of vendors were holding out on WPA, Netgear alone doesn't prove that such a trend is happening. With all the buzz around the lack of security in Wi-Fi, I would think that most vendors will want to offer as much security as possible to reassure nervous potential users....

Who's cloning who?


Who's cloning who? 03/29/2005 02:16 PM
Clonus (AKA Parts: the Clonus Horror) was released on DVD today. This ultracheap 1979 sci-fi thriller is about a compound where clones are raised, unaware that their purpose in life is to provide harvested organs (more detail here). MST3K sent it up, the Onion sneers at it, but this NY Times review (reg. reqd., scroll down) is respectful. You can rent it now, or you can wait until July for the megabudget, Michael Bay-directed version of the same damn story.

Human embryo cloning OKed in UK 08/11/2004 08:13 AM
Rich sez, "British scientists have been granted permission to clone human embryos for medical research, it was announced today."
They plan to duplicate early-stage embryos and extract stem cells from them which can be used for radical new treatments.

The embryos are destroyed before they are 14-days old and never allowed to develop beyond a cluster of cells the size of a pinhead.

The green-light was given by the research licensing body the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority after weeks of discussion.

Dr Miodrag Stojkovic, from the university’s Institute of Human Genetics, said: “We are all set up and ready to go immediately as soon as the paper work is sorted out.
