 [Therightcoast.blogspot.com] The Right Coast: John Yoo, professor at Boalt Hall, who has been depicted on this blog as saying reasonable things on TV, apparently wrote a memo saying Taliban and Al Queada terrorists don't get the same benefits under international law as would prisoners of war. According to the story, about a quarter of Berkeley's law graduates wore red armbands (why red?) to protest the memo and Professor Yoo's presence on the Berkeley faculty.

[Camplesegroup.com] Cole Camplese: Learning & Innovation » Blog Archive » Discussion ...: Also, I observed two students at separate times who seemed very frustrated with having to get their card out to enter the building because they had a lot of things in their hands.

[Voip-blog.tmcnet.com] VoIP Blog - Rich Tehrani: January 2005 Archives: Couple this with the fact that more VCs will avoid VoIP investments if the revenue model isnt there and every state hangs its own regulatory cloud over the industry.This is a problem because unlike a Vonage who centrally manages telephone calls and is a US based company that collects revenue from calls, Skype is a European company that collects no revenue from the bulk of its calls and is software based meaning calls don't even have to go through Skype (unless they travel over the PSTN to a non-Skype client).I truly fear every state cutting off their noses to spite their faces and then wondering why there is no company left to regulate.So to make the record clear, I am in favor o making sure that VoIP is regulated in a manner that ensures safety as well as local number portability. I am not in favor of every state doing whatever it feels is best and damaging the entire industry along the way.

In my view, that entire episode of the Khomeini fatwa showed how sick some forms of Muslim activism had become, and served as a foretaste of al-Qaeda’s own death warrant served on a lot of other innocent people.
