Plastered & Fossilized
Fredneck man found dead in an alley, drunk friends questioned.
...AG Doug Gansler writes a letter to MoCo Senator saying he thinks that the Court of Appeals could rule to recognize same-sex marriages from other states. His sentiments don't carry any weight-- there's no case in front of the court about out-of-state marriages, and at last visit the court was pretty clear that marriage exists expressly for "the attendant link to fostering procreation." (sorry, grandma!) Perry v. Schwarzenegger has a better shot with the Supreme Court than any hypothetical gay suit would with our fossilized bench.
Speaking out for civil rights is always nice, though, right?

Wrongedy Wrong Wrong!
This is an outrage!
It's our judiciary-- we pay for it!
But
a new rule, reportedly likely to pass, would allow courthouses to ban all cell phones and cell communications, and possibly laptops.
[wonder what this bill is called?]
Mark my words-- cell-phone blocking technology in the courthouse is next!

Lawyers, Lasers, Cell-Phone Jammers
QTD: "I ... have a great contract. Bless the lawyers." - FHB III
Cell-phone jamming technology will be tested today at Cumberland. The Senate passed the Safe Prisons Communication Act in October and is likely to pass the House; the bill requires that blocking technology not interfere with communications outside of the prison.

And behold: the Ink with no murders.
