...onto the market with this seemingly glaring flaw. "It's surprising HP didn't get this right," says Bill Anderson, president of Oculis Labs in Hunt Valley, Md., a company that develops security software that uses face recognition to protect work computers from prying eyes. "These things are solvable." Case in point: Sensible Vision, which develops the face-recognition security software that comes with some Dell computers, said their software had no trouble picking up the black employee's face when they tested the YouTube video...
...radiation oncologist Dr. Jeffrey Long says if you look at the scientific evidence, the answer is unequivocally yes. Drawing on a decade's worth of research on near-death experiences - work that includes cataloguing the stories of some 1,600 people who have gone through them - he makes the case for that controversial conclusion in a new book, Evidence of the Afterlife. Medicine, Long says, cannot account for the consistencies in the accounts reported by people all over the world. He talked to TIME about the nature of near-death experience, the intersection between religion and science and the Oprah...

Stevens responded, "The court's ruling threatens to undermine the integrity of elected institutions across the nation...
...dissenting, Stevens and his liberal allies displayed a competing worldview. For them, government is a force that ameliorates and repairs flaws in society - in this case, the corrosive effect of wealth on open democracy. The 90-page dissent spoke admiringly of the many years of debate and the 100,000 pages of documents underlying the McCain-Feingold reforms of 2002, and shuddered to imagine the influence that big corporations and big labor groups might exercise over politics in the absence of such congressional efforts...
...revolution. "Italy's political culture is far removed from new technology," says Luca Conti, 34, a blogger in the coastal city of Senigallia. "They're not even focused yet on how to control the Internet since they haven't even figured out how to use it to their advantage." Case in point: more than 100,000 people attended an anti-Berlusconi rally in Rome last month that was organized on Facebook, but the top opposition politicians snubbed the event. Conti says the country's leaders - left, right and center - are still focused solely on reaching the public...
