"Whoo hoo!" The Boston Globe has a good article about
the 'setback' that is about to happen to society on May 17th. No, not
Brown vs. Board of Education's 50th Anniversary, but the Mass. Supreme
Judicial Court's decision that gays and lesbians deserve equal
marriage rights under the Mass. state constitution.

The Globe has an
exhaustive
list of links and opinions from
both sides of the issue, including video clips, a full timeline of
the Goodrich case, and even national news and opinions on the issue.

Indigineous prior-art database to fight
bio-piracy
03/19/2003 10:45 PMMultinational pharma companies are patenting the traditional medecine
of indigineous people. Now activists have created a prior-art website
to foil these acts of "bio-piracy."
They hope that the Tekpad (Traditional Ecological Knowledge Prior Art
Database) website will go some way to redress this bio-piracy by
offering US and European patent offices a comprehensive list of
traditional remedies that are already in the public domain...
"The website is a way of fighting bio-piracy which is the misuse of
biological resources and knowledge," Project Director Stephen Hansen
explained to the BBC's Go Digital programme.

Actual piracy on rise, response
orthagonal to RIAA's response to
"piracy"`
01/27/2004 07:32 PMActual piracy is on the rise. That is to say, more people are boarding
more ships with more guns and shooting more people and taking more
cargo, all the while uttering more horrible cries of "ARRRRR."
Strangely, the shipping industry's response isn't to keelhaul
passengers who don't tip well on ocean cruises, or to hull random
pleasure boats, or to demand special bow-mounted lasers that vaporize
any ship that gets within a hundred miles.
Around the world, more than 20 sailors are known to have been murdered
by pirates last year.
Seventy are missing, presumed dead.
Other trends are also emerging: ships are now less likely to be
hijacked for their cargo; attackers, possibly from militant groups,
are seizing ships and ransoming their crew.
