Photos show mystery child sex man

Summary: Interpol took the unprecendented step of making a global appeal for help to identify a man from digitally reconstructed photos taken from the Internet that it said showed him sexually abusing underage boys. The man's face was disguised by digital alteration, but the images were capable of being restored. The suspect's photo and more information are online at Interpol's Web site.

Opinion: Posting the photo and personal information on the online is quite illegal thing to do. However, this is a different case. I strongly believe of giving no rights for those criminals. People say that their rights are so important that they cannot post their personal info and pictures on the web, which is public place, but I think their criminal acts deserve no human rights, thus, they should wear a criminal verification electric band or something or they should wear "A" on their chest forever.

New leader for missing Madeleine case

Summary: A senior Portuguese detective, Paulo Rebelo, a senior criminal investigator, has been appointed to bring fresh momentum to the controversial investigation into the disappearance of British girl Madeleine McCann. Madeleine's parents have said she disappeared from their hotel room in a vacation resort in Portugal's Algarve region on May 3 while they dined in a restaurant nearby. They deny they had anything to do with their daughter's disappearance.

Opinion: Well, the McCanns should stop this. As time goes, I think and a lot of people thinks that it was their parents who set this up. I think whenever this kind of article appears on the magazine or something, I think they get paid for letting the publisher to put their commercials with the article. I do not think focusing on a missing child for months crazily is wise thing to do. It is sad but sure is a waist of the time and taxes.

Mice gene trio win medicine Nobel

Summary: U.S. citizens Mario R. Capecchi and Oliver Smithies and Sir Martin J. Evans of Britain won the 2007 Nobel Prize in medicine for groundbreaking discoveries that led to a technique for manipulating mouse genes. They were honored for a technique called gene targeting, which lets scientists inactivate or modify particular genes in mice. That in turn lets them study how those genes affect health and disease.

Opinion: Well, these U.S. citizens from Italy and all over the world, did a pretty good job for their country, maybe for America. I am not accusing them of getting rid of their citizenship of their mother country and getting American citizenship, maybe I am. However, as far as global concern, it is definitely a great study or project since it can be used good for health purposes. I wonder when the human cloning would become a practical thing.

Study: Migraine pill helps some alcoholics taper off

Summary: A migraine pill, Topamax, seems to help alcoholics taper off their drinking without detox treatment, offering a potential option for a hard-to-treat problem. Experts said the drug is likely to appeal to heavy drinkers who would rather seek help from their own doctors, rather than enter a rehab clinic to dry out. The drug costs at least $350 a month, plus the price of doctor's visits.

Opinion: I get headaches all the time and i want a pill that just removes my headache perfectly not the headache medicine for treatment for alcoholics. Whatever the pill is, I recommend that the best way of becoming non-alcoholic is just not drinking any liquor. Easy. Maybe for some people it is not easy, but if he sees that crazy amount of money, I'm sure they would think once more before grabbing a can or bottle.

Sick people!!!!

Very sad if the parents set this up.

Good ideas for people who drink too much.

Not sure about the mice gene story.
