Good Morning All, I'm in Canada, on the west coast, thousands of miles from New York and Washington and yet I strongly identify with and feel a very deep and emotional sense of tragedy and loss... It's very difficult to focus on Parkinson's and research etc. given the current situation in America. Watching the NEWS unfold over the past 18 hours brings back memories.... Memories of other never-to-be-forgotten days... John Kennedy... Mount St. Helens... San Fran. Earthquake... Oaklahoma Federal Bldg.... SS Coles... The Embassy attacks... all eclipsed by this incredibly barbaric terrorist attack... Indeed, I have stood on the observation decks, 110 stories up, at the World Trade Centers, and enjoyed the view... and now they are gone... It is hard to comprehend. The smoke obscures the harsh realities... Again, I pray for all Americans.... Now I must remember our priorities... Here is the overnight NEWS wire serving... Peace ....... murray * * * NEWS: Broader Stem Cell Research Backed http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A7126-2001Sep11.html NEWS: KANSAS: Hoglund center advancing http://www.ljworld.com/section/kunews/story/65727 ARTICLE: Reno ready to wrestle Jeb Bush http://www.cnn.com/2001/ALLPOLITICS/09/10/column.billpress/index.html NEWS: Influential science panel says more stem cell lines will be needed http://www2.startribune.com/stOnLine/cgi-bin/article?thisStory=84904509 NEWS: Jellyfish gene placed into monkey embryos http://www.jsonline.com/news/state/sep01/monkey11091001.asp ARTICLE: Diet, nutrition supplements exploit elderly http://web.wichitaeagle.com/content/wichitaeagle/2001/09/11/health/0911supplement_txt.htm NEWS: Scientists: New lines of stem cells needed http://www.accessatlanta.com/ajc/epaper/editions/today/news_b3d9fbb1007810f30024.html ARTICLE: Caring for the old bodies is our new full-time job http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/254/living/Caring_for_the_old_bodies_is_our_new_full_time_job+.shtml * * * ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
