PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Brittany Maynard’s mother is responding angrily to criticism from the Vatican of Maynard’s decision to end her life early under an Oregon law written to let terminally ill patients die on their own terms.

Days after Maynard’s Nov. 1 death at age 29, the Vatican’s top bioethics official called her choice “reprehensible” and said physician-assisted suicide should be condemned. Maynard’s mother, Debbie Ziegler, issued a sharp written response Tuesday. She said the comments from Monsignor Ignacio Carrasco de Paula, head of the Pontifical Academy for Life, came as the family was grieving and were “more than a slap in the face.”   Continue reading “Right-to-die advocate’s mom blasts Vatican remarks”

Zoe Taylor had her first epileptic seizure in May 2013. It was the most frightening and painful experience of her life. ‘I’ve had two children without pain relief and that was a breeze by comparison,’ says Zoe, 33. ‘It was a pain you can’t imagine. It started in my tongue and I felt impelled to open my jaws as wide as possible. ‘I expelled all the air from my lungs and then I couldn’t breathe in.’

As well as feeling as if she was suffocating, her body was jerking uncontrollably, then she fell unconscious. After that, she had similar seizures every six weeks or so and smaller ones up to ten times a day. ‘My jaw would go fuzzy and numb. Afterwards, I’d feel tired and get emotional about the smallest thing.’ In July, the cause was revealed – a slow-growing brain tumour.    Continue reading “Scientists are studying the ketogenic diet as a weapon against cancer”

Connecticut gun owner told Guns and Patriots that his civil rights were stripped from him by an anti-gun judicial branch and a soon-to-be ex-wife who is uncomfortable with him owning guns.

“High risk SWAT team rolls in and takes all my guns,” said Edward F. Taupier the respondent in a two-year divorce action that has escalated to an all-out war. “It took two armadillo armored vehicles, 75 officers with weapons drawn, and 45 minutes to raid my house.”

Although he said he posed no risk to the officers, Taupier was thrown to the ground and arrested.   Continue reading “Nutmeg State Swat Storms Gun Owner’s Home, Seizes Firearms”

Former MLB player Jose Canseco says he’s selling his detached digit on eBay.

The Canseco finger saga started in October when the Cuban-born, former Miami resident accidentally shot it off. Doctors reattached his finger, but apparently not well enough. Last Thursday while at a poker game, it fell off.

Canseco tweeted Monday night that he’d be selling the finger, along with the .45 caliber Remington gun that shot it off. Canseco hasn’t listed the items for sale as of yet, and didn’t mention a price.   Continue reading “For sale: Jose Canseco’s finger and the gun that shot it off”

Global trade relationships and agreements are moving in very different directions. The public relations press releases hide the undercurrents that are driving the formations of alternative economic alliances. While the G 20, markets its all inclusive umbrella policy forums, the mere formation of a BRICS counterweight forecasts deep and fundamental differences. So what is really behind the creation of a different approach to the post WWII dominate U.S. lead model? A clue can be found in an attempt to modify the operations and direction of IMF functions.   Continue reading “G 20 and BRICS Great Schism”
