Unpopular B.C. leaders have much to ponder before vote
G: Honestly even though his policies are unpopular. Gordon Campbell did us all a favour in cutting back things, instead of leaving the next few generations to pay it off. (speaking as a young healthy university educated male). Although he seems to be aloof and is not very imaginative I think he has proven himself to be a pretty good manager. Something that his rivals can't say at this time.

VICTORIA (CP) - Premier Gordon Campbell is unpopular with almost two-thirds of British Columbians, but that doesn't mean voters are gravitating to NDP leader Carole James because she's becoming unpopular too.

This year's Laskers!
G: Congratulation! Dr. Matthew S. Meselson for discovering messenger RNA. Dr Charles D. Kellman for discovering keyhole surgery. Dr. Elwood V. Jensen for discovering how hormones move into the cell, into the nucleus and activate the gense in the DNA. Dr. Pierre Chambon and Dr. Ronald M. Evans shows there is a family of receptor proteins.

A founding father of molecular biology, a surgeon who developed the standard operation for removing cataracts and three researchers who unmasked an elaborate genetic control system within the cell are the winners of this year's Lasker awards for medical research.

Eye in the Sky
G: Twinkle Twinkle little star, how I wonder who are you AND what you are looking!?
Now this is a bit freaky. I guess the movie "Enemy of the State" is coming true! Though from the article it seems environmental crime is still okay.. so I guess it is fine for people to dump their oil and antifreeze into streams!;-)

BETHESDA, Md. -- In the name of homeland security, America's spy imagery agency is keeping a close eye, close to home. It's watching America.
Since the Sept. 11 attacks, about 100 employees of a little-known branch of the Defense Department called the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency -- and some of the country's most sophisticated aerial imaging equipment -- have focused on observing what's going on in the United States.

Interesting Interview with Craig Barrett
G:An interesting insight to the world's leading processor manufacturer.. though a bit skimpy on the details. They seems to think in transistor counts rather than market acceptance.. eg Montecito/Itanium. Favourite quote: unfortunately quote from a fortune cookie: "The world is always ready to receive talent with open arms." Also a factoid Intel's commutor airline is called Intel Shuttle.
