There's a constitutional crisis brewing, but other stuff goes on too:
- Justice Dept. on Wrongful Convictions: “Not Our Problem”
- Iraq Embassy Oversight Hearing: I believe these men were kidnapped by First Kuwaiti to work at the US Embassy…
- EZ-Bake oven for your PC (just a joke — so far)
- Boing boing: “If you only watch one YouTube movie today featuring dancing country farmer's daughters contortionists singing about potato salad, it should be this one.” (OK. I'll keep that in mind.)
- Racism mars what should a Hollywood movie wedding.
- Bad news: Thompson campaign is peaking too soon.
- Good news: Newt is waiting in the wings.
- Emboldened by a recent court decision rolling back competitive protections, firms are suing to block e-Bay auctions that undercut their retail price maintenance schemes.
- Help EFF Examine Once-Secret FBI Docs
- Volokh praises the honesty of Florida jurors. But the mental capacity of Broward county's sheriff and prosecutors are certainly open to question.
- Unfortunately, it's big — and welcome — news when a high-ranking general is held accountable for something, in this case the Tillman Case. It's not anywhere near the maximum punishment, and the greatest penalty falls on a retired general so don't get too excited. But it's real.
- My view that administration officials risk war crimes trials after they leave office is gradually becoming mainstream — in part because the administration keeps writing new rules justifying war crimes.
- New UK PM proposes decrease in freedom
- IE7Pro — a plugin for IE, if you use that.
- Pasquale & Bracha, Federal Search Commission? Access, Fairness and Accountability in the Law of Search
- John Edwards does Hair
- A pilot discusses airline (in)security — it ain't pretty.
No, there's no pattern there. Feel free to post your own pointers to stuff in the comments.

Executive seizure of assets, that’s nice. Wonderfully broad scope, purpose, etc.
There really is no choice, even if some groups have to come along kicking and screaming.
