  Judge Richard May | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited
Sir Richard was fastidious in seeking to ensure that Milosevic obtained a fair trial, firm in dealing with the antics and theatrics of the defendant, and scrupulously fair-minded in presiding over the case of the first European head of state to be tried for genocide.
Richard May was born in London, educated at Haileybury and, after national service where he became a second lieutenant, graduated from Cambridge in 1964.
Richard was, at the end of the day, most loveable and one of a diminishing species, a good man be it in local government, as parliamentary candidate, circuit judge or as a self-possessed, international judge in the duel between him and Milosevic.

 Sir Richard May | Obituaries | News | Telegraph
May was well suited to this role, both by background (he was an expert on rules of criminal procedure and evidence) and temperament.
May's laconic no-nonsense manner was the perfect antidote to Milosevic's sulks and histrionics and his attempts to bully and browbeat the tribunal.
May's efficiency and commonsense and his firmness with time-wasters quickly won him the admiration of his colleagues in The Hague, and his unwavering attention to evidential rules helped to establish the court's reputation for fairness among objective observers.

 Online Ethics Center: APPE: Richard's Radioactive Risk   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Richard's subservient role as an undergraduate placed in a situation with a post-graduate researcher and a seasoned technician, however, is indicated.
If Richard decides not to tell Lisa, and her chair is contaminated with radioactive residue, Richard may be partly responsible for the health risk presented to Lisa.
Richard may argue that only he knows that he saw Paul in Lisa's cubicle and, therefore, he can ignore his responsibility to inform Lisa.

 Apple (UK and Ireland) - Pro - Design - Richard May
May’s core application is unreservedly Photoshop, which he uses to bring together all the different elements on the one ‘canvas’.
May uses Illustrator and Streamline to convert photographs into vectors, though he treats them with caution: “Streamline pops up occasionally, but is kept on the leash at all times — seems all you’ve got to do these days is put a photograph through Streamline and suddenly, hey, you’re an illustrator”.
May may have received more recognition in his short career than many illustrators will see in a lifetime, but he is not complacent, and his involvement with the design community through Pixelsurgeon keeps him at the cutting edge of his field.

 Richard May, 65, judge at Milosevic's trial - The Boston Globe
Judge May and Milosevic, both strong personalities, clashed regularly in the courtroom over countless issues ranging from Milosevic's complaints about telephone use in his cell to his efforts to blame the Balkan wars on Western political leaders.
Judge May was often visibly frustrated with Milosevic but went to great lengths to ensure he was treated fairly, often assisting him in questioning witnesses and explaining how he could best contest the 66 war crimes allegations against him.
Judge May joined the UN tribunal, formally the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, in 1997 and had presided over the Milosevic trial since February 2002.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Richard of St. Victor
Richard does not appear to have taken any active part in these proceedings, but the disturbed condition of his surroundings may well have accentuated his desire for the interior solace of mystical contemplation.
In 1165, St. Victor had been visited by St. Thomas of Canterbury, after his flight from Northampton; and Richard was doubtless one of the auditors of the discourse delivered by the archbishop on that occasion.
Like his master, Hugo, Richard may probably have had some acquaintance and intercourse with St. Bernard, who is thought to have been the Bernard to whom the treatise "De tribus appropriatis personis in Trinitate" is addressed.

 Apple (UK and Ireland) - Pro - Design - Richard May
May’s work is highly distinctive, with its fluidity and exciting textures, layered with sketches and graphics.
But in creative circles, May is equally well-known as one of the three founding members of Pixelsurgeon — a Web portal for the creative community providing news, reviews and interviews with designers, musicians, filmmakers and artists, as well as competitions and online exhibitions of artwork from all over the world.
Looking at the complexity and variety of May’s creative activities, it may seem surprising that his studio consists of a relatively simple technical set up: two Power Macs, a scanner and an Epson A3 colour printer.

 washingtonpost.com: War Crimes Tribunal Judge Richard May
Richard May, 65, the British judge who wryly cut off Slobodan Milosevic's courtroom speechmaking and presided over hundreds of hearings at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in The Hague, died July 1 in Oxford, England.
In a sign of his disdain, he referred to Judge May as "Mister May" or "Gospodine May" in his native Serbo-Croatian, rather than using his honorary title of Judge.
"Adding substantially to the difficult task facing Judge May was Milosevic's scorn for the tribunal and insistence on representing himself, despite his lack of skill and poor health," said a tribute to May by the Washington-based Coalition for International Justice.

RICHARD HOLBROOKE: The interesting thing, Ray, was that for various reasons, every single leader we met with, no matter what their internal differences, was literally begging the outside world, the U.N., to come in and put some peacekeeping observers on the ground in order to stabilize the situation.
RICHARD HOLBROOKE: You know, Ray, of all the wars that we have witnessed in recent years - and we've seen a lot of small regional wars - this is arguably the most senseless, the most tragic.
