Submission + - Pot Cures Cancer. (nih.gov)

networkconsultant writes: We have known for a while that refined oils of hemp and pot have various action on multiple forms of cancer without the harsh side effects often experienced by anti-neoplastics such as Folfox and Folfri; We have examples here:
2 Year old beats Glioma with Cannabis
Now there is yet another formal study that will prove CBD's in Cannabis are a better first line treatment for cancer than all of the patented and expensive treatments available via your hospital and health insurance.
The actual study to confirm her "Anecdotal" evidence can be found here: Cannabidiol induces programmed cell death in breast cancer cells by coordinating the cross-talk between apoptosis and autograph.
Looks like the cure was right in our rolling hands all along.
Not to tout the conspiricy aspect but these folks think that it's been longer than that: Medical Marajuna Cures Cancer

1. Fabricate an Icon 2. Market Said Icon 3. Move all manufacturing of said Icon to the lowest (and therefore dirtiest place) on the planet. We don't manufacture anything in North America anymore because we have environmental regulations that cost billions of dollars to comply with; china has some regulations but it's always cheaper to bribe the party member than pay the bill. I wonder if the Chinese people know they are poising their own back yard? that's why we have said expensive regulations.

Submission + - The strange disappearance of Dancho Danchev

rudy_wayne writes: ZDNet is reporting that Zero Day blogger and malware researcher Dancho Danchev has gone missing since August of last year. Dancho, who was relentless in his pursuit of cyber-criminals, last blogged here on August 18. His personal blog has not been updated since September 11, 2010.

At ZDNet, we made multiple attempts to contact him, to no avail. Telephone numbers are going to Bulgarian language voicemails and our attempts to reach him via a snail mail address also came up empty. Just recently, a trusted member of the malware research community reached out to us to say he had received a troubling letter from Dancho on September 9, 2010, about the threat of persecution in Bulgaria.

Submission + - Extinct Mammoth: Coming to a Zoo Near You (telegraph.co.uk) 1

Techmeology writes: Professor Akira Iritani of Kyoto University plans to use recent developments in cloning technology to give life to the currently extinct woolly mammoth. Although earlier efforts in the 1990s were unsuccessful due to damage caused by extreme cold, Professor Iritani believes he can use a technique pioneered by Dr Wakayama (who successfully cloned a frozen mouse) to overcome this obstacle. This technique will enable Professor Iritani to identify viable cell nuclei, and transfer them to egg cells of an African elephant which will carry the mammoth for a 600 day pregnancy.

Ok, I'm not sure how familiar you are with Citrix; But deploying meta frame means you are deploying a server farm, just give them thin clients at their desks; or whatever cheap $200 crap you can find with a montior and keyboard. If they want to Terminal in with Thier Alienware laptop whilst playing Blac Ops by all means let them. But for heavens sake don't let the twain meet.

Unless you sue IBM and have very deep pockets once someone has stolen your idea and had the theft accredited by the rating agency (patent office) you are essentially screwed. You may file an appeal, but then the burden of proof is on you.
Tesla and Marconi had similar ideas around the same time but the patent office ruled in favor of Marconi, you my friend may be a Tesla at this point.
