| Suspected Extremists Plead Guilty in Plot to Behead British Soldier
But Gassama, a Gambian citizen, never came up with the details and the plan "lay dormant" after July 2006, said Rumfitt. He said Khan revived the plot in November 2006. Gassama pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of failing to disclose details of the plot. In addition, Amjad Mahmood, 32, pleaded not guilty to a charge of failing to disclose details of Khan's plot. Zahoor Iqbal, 30, pleaded not guilty to possessing the "Encyclopedia Jihad" — a computer disk which prosecutors say could be useful to a terrorist. Both men have also pleaded not guilty to helping Khan to supply equipment to terrorists. The men were arrested in a series of high-profile raids in Birmingham in January 2007.

Fast Acting Cyanide Antidote Discovered Cure Likely To Benefit ...
University of Minnesota Center for Drug Design and Minneapolis VA Medical Center researchers have discovered a new fast-acting antidote to cyanide poisoning. The antidote has potential to save lives of those who are exposed to the chemical namely firefighters, industrial workers, and victims of terrorist attacks.
Current cyanide antidotes work slowly and are ineffective when administered after a certain point, said Steven Patterson, Ph.D., principal investigator and associate director of the University of the Minnesota Center for Drug Design.
Patterson is developing an antidote that was discovered by retired University of Minnesota Professor Herbert Nagasawa. This antidote works in less than three minutes meeting the United States Department of Defense "three minute solution" standard.
