Today the site gives a rundown on an extremely interesting case in Egypt, where five leaders of the international Muslim Brotherhood were sentenced in abstentia to10 years in prison for terrorism and money laundering.

| | U.S. v. Muntasser et al - The Evidence Behind the Convictions | | 2008-01-11 17:13:30 | | In what can only be described as a major victory for the U.S. Department of Justice, a Massachusetts jury today returned guilty verdicts on seven of eight criminal charges filed against three defendants in federal district court--convicting Emaddedine Muntasser, Muhamed Mubayyid, and Samir al-Monla of tax code violations, making false statements, and conspiracy to defraud the United States.

| | Of blogging and convictions | | 2007-05-03 18:54:20 | | I just want to share a great new idea I’ve found at a fellow blogger’s site. It’s about “blog convictions“, as coined by Jayvee of A Bugged Life. The excerpt below is particularly evocative, in my opinion.
This got me thinking about how blogs are extensions, or manifestations rather of our own personal convictions. Thus, I’d like to ask you to sit back from your computer monitor and think about your personal BLOG CONVICTIONS. Why did I start this blog? How has this blog evolved through time? Am I still on track with my original vision?
Why don’t you check it out? Who knows, Jayvee might be right about becoming a better blogger if you define your own blog conviction.
bloggers, responsible blogging
