Rich countries 'fuel terrorism': Mahathir (Aug 09 2003 17:31 GMT) - BBC: Malaysian prime minister Mahathir Mohamad has accused rich nations of fuelling terrorism by hawking their weapons to poor countries and waging wars "at the slightest excuse". Dr Mohamad said developing nations were under huge pressure from rich countries to buy weapons even as the West criticised them for doing so. "If there is no war then all these very expensive weapons would be a waste," he said. He also condemned Islamic terrorist groups saying Muslims can only fight in self-defence but "many Muslims invoke Islam when they commit un-Islamic acts". |

Blog Ethics (Aug 09 2003 17:28 GMT) - Thoughtful piece on weblog ethics over at Jonathon Delacour's blog. It made me realize that I haven't explicitly stated my blogging policies, though I've been operating with them for years now.This blog's territory is what I think about nearly every facet of my life. The nearly part is important because those are the parts that matter most to me and I am very private about. I will not talk about the people in my life except as actors in events that I will blog. |

Xml support for business objects (Aug 09 2003 17:28 GMT) - Source: Steve Eichert One of the advantages of using DataSets is their support for Xml. By using the ReadXml() and WriteXml() methods on the DataSet developers can quickly retrieve an Xml representation of a DataSet, as well as re-hydrate a DataSet with data from an Xml file.

just another special day (Aug 09 2003 17:28 GMT) - Days like today remind me how lucky I am. Though we've been together almost 3 years longer than what today signifies and celebrate what we call our real anniversary in October, Kim and I were married 23 years ago today. So, for almost 26 years (which is half my lifetime), I've been with her and cannot imagine what it be like without her. |

Power from blood could lead to 'human batteries' (Aug 09 2003 17:25 GMT) - A device that produces electricity from blood could be used to turn people into "human batteries". Researchers in Japan are developing a method of drawing power from blood glucose, mimicking the way the body generates energy from food. Theoretically, it could allow a person to pump out 100 watts - enough to illuminate a light bulb. I can just see it... geeks walking around with laptops plugged into them. |
