This is perhaps something that we have known all along. Handsfree kits certainly does not increase one’s concentration on the road while talking on the phone. Handphone usage while driving remains a distraction that can be fatal while driving. We now even see individuals with bluetooth headseats permanently embedded in their ears even while not in usage.

It is still safer to stop by the roadside while talking on the phone. And please take those bluetooth sets out of your ears before it becomes a permanent fixture for without it you will be unrecognisable!

From bmj.com,

Mercy killing or murder. The term as controversial as the act itself. It is a debate that will go on for centuries. Perhaps, the rationale for the “deliberate ending of life” is acceptable when babies are born with defects incompatible with a good quality of life.

Perhaps he is right. How about the times treatment has been witheld when the situation has been deemed “palliative”? Does that equate mercy killing?

When one has seen great sufferings, mercy killings may not be that far fetched or sinful. However, a fine line exists between euthanasia and murder. You could intepret it either way.
