Note: if you move the mouse around real fast while elements are switching visibility in IE/PC, the window.event.toElement reference can intermittently be null
Twelve-year-old Shane Bowman juggles his old heart in Edmonton, B.C., after getting a new one. The hospital allowed him to play with the organ, which weighs 555 grams, almost three times the size of a normal heart.

Canadian media reported that 89 percent of the country had an “absolute conviction that we have a better quality of life than the United States.”
Bug 194582 still cramping my style.
Macromedia + DoubleClick: DART motif; presentation powered by Macromedia Breeze (overview). Don’t much care about the former, but the later is intriguing.
Careful: The FB-eye may be watching – hearing more an more of these stories. Apparently someone reported him for reading an article entitled ‘Weapons of Mass Stupidity,’ a critique on corporate interests and the media.
Trippi’s partner speaks up: “Any reading material? Papers?” I don’t think so. Then Trippi decides to level with me: “I’ll tell you what, Marc. Someone in the shop that day saw you reading something, and thought it looked suspicious enough to call us about. So that’s why we’re here, just checking it out. Like I said, there’s no problem. We’d just like to get to the bottom of this. Now if we can’t, then you may have a problem. And you don’t want that.”
Subject: Netscape is dead (apparently, so is devedge – and it was just starting to get useful)
On the bright side, at least there won’t be any more Netscape 4 releases.
WebReference: Pure CSS2 Rollovers had the last bit I needed to fix the drop-down menu I’ve been working on (specifying 100% width in IE/PC to get the display:block link to activate properly). I still can’t find a way to get around specifying the width for the ul of menu items, but that’s ok, I guess.

(The technical problems are actually the least of the concerns. With the re-org of the top menus, it’s time to look at rationalizing how the rest of the navigation behaves; currently the title blocks and sidebar navs jump between levels and displaying sibling/child items. This really has been in need of fixing since the whole ‘just get something up’ rush last summer.)
