If you haven’t been following the Sony-BMG CD debacle, BoingBoing’s roundups are as good a place to catch up as any: Roundup IV is the latest one. You can also read about the EFF’s litigation.
But, of course, this is really an excuse to link to this comic from the one and only Lore. The crazy part is that it dates from the early 1990s, by my recollection. Then again, he is a noted futurologist.

If you are studying US Federal Civil Procedure, and you do not have a copy of Glannon’s Examples and Explanations, purchase one at your next opportunity. I bought my copy this morning on the recommendation of someone I met in the elevator last night, and I now understand Erie much more thoroughly. Granted, I still regard supplemental jurisdiction as a malconcieved scion of quantum physics and the occult, but then again, I haven’t read that chapter yet.

It’s finals period at Hastings, so I haven’t had much to post (except the odd picture). At least I’m not taking the Virginia bar exam, which requires that:
The manner of dress for the examination shall conform to the standard of suitable attire for a lawyer appearing in a court of record; i.e., a suit or jacket with tie for males, or a suitable dress or suit for females.
I’m informed Kentucky has a similar requirement, but I can’t confirm it. Huh.

I don’t know whose stuff this is, but they’ve got a nice little study party set up here. (Hint: read the note for the blue bottle on the table.)

While UC Hastings isn’t in the best of neighborhoods, it’s within two blocks of every level of judiciary except the United States Supreme Court, and one of its buildings is a high-rise from which you can easily see all of them. Click on the photo here to start a photo-judicial tour of San Francisco.

. . . call for desparate measures. But you would not believe how much more efficient at studying I’ve gotten after I pulled the AirPort card from my laptop.
