    Science Digest

    Science Digest was first published in January 1937[1] in an 8 x 5 inch digest size format of about 100 pages.[2] First edited by G.W. Stamm.,[1] it was targeted at persons with a high school education level.[1] It contained short articles about general science often excerpted from other publications in the style of Reader's Digest.[1] The headquarters of Science Digest was in Des Moines, Iowa.[3]

    In November 1980 the magazine was expanded to an 11 x 8 inch glossy page format with full-length articles and color pictures targeted at a college-educated reader.[2] The new version was largely the creation of its then editor Scott DeGarmo. It was issued bi-monthly with circulation of about 500,000 copies. At first it tended to favor breathless cover lines, and often turned to pseudoscience topics, including spontaneous human combustion and UFOs. Unable to compete with more serious publications, such as Discover and Omni, the magazine ceased publication in 1986.[4]

  2. Merry Christmas Vecinos, losing a good loyal friend is an incredibly sad event.

    About a month ago I took a starving female to Dog Camp to recover. It appeared that she had been dumped some time ago up in the Parque Volcan Baru and that she'd given birth to pups recently.

    Nala, as she's been named, is an incredibly sweet dog full of love for anyone who helps her. She'll be ready for adoption after the January 26th Spay-Neuter Clinic.

    An  appeals court granted the precautionary measure of house arrest to the son of  Supreme Court Judge Cecilio Cedalise.  The 30-year-old  was arrested in Arraiján for carrying a firearm without permission, a crime that carries a sentence of 8-10 years behind bars.

    Someone who is charged with a crime that carries an 8 to 10 year sentence is being released on house arrest with no cash bail?

    That's crazy. Corruption rules.

    Why bother?  Considering Panamanian courts recent rulings, no one of any importance will ever be found guilty of anything.  

    We have all seen money buy innocence, even in Canada. (Dennis Oland recently), while innocent people without means have spent years behind bars. (too many to mention), but here in Panama it seems that the outcomes of criminal cases are known before charges are even laid.

    Currently two of the three branches of government here are known to be corrupt, the Courts and the National Assembly. We don’t know yet about the third, the Cortizo administration.

    The US Department of State warned on Wednesday, December 5  that they will immediately suspend the entry visas of corrupt officials in Latin America. 

    Bad choice of timing to release this statement which appears highly hypocritical considering current investigations and proceedings in Washington.

    in relation to an elevator that was purchased without measuring the size of the pit and now does not fit, so it is a loss.

    This can only happen as a result of incompetence.  Probably some corruption thrown in as well.

    Agreed.

    Not likely to happen, the foxes have probably already left the henhouse.
