CITY OF NEW LONDON, in which the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the government has the right to take the property of a private landowner and give it to a private corporation as an act of Eminent Domain, Freestar Media, a video production company trying to break into commercial television with a reality show that 'advances freedom', is trying to use the court ruling to condemn Justice David Souter's house to make room for a "Lost Liberty Hotel" featuring a "Just Desserts Cafe". to Law by nucleus |

As of May 21st you will have to stop listening to great stations like SomaFM and start listening to crap from the likes of Clear Channel, unless you contact your senators and congressmen and say things like this. to Law by asosa |

| Wednesday Sep 13, 2000 | Forensic entomology
can be a fascinating subject.
After death,
a body goes through a number of changes that make
it attractive to different types of arthropods; the
types, numbers, and stages of development of critters
collected from a body
can reveal a good deal about it --
the time and
cause of death,
whether the
corpse has been moved,
and other interesting tidbits.

| Tuesday Nov 9, 1999 | The
Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)
is a
WIPO weapon
for global copyright legislation. That's WIPO/OMPI,
actually -- the
World Intellectual Property Organization/
Organisation Mondiale de la Propriété Intellectuelle
. They're trying to redefine the economy of
intellectual property in moneyed spaces worldwide.
The Digital Future Coalition,
educause.edu,
and the
Association of Research Libraries
have related, yet contrastive, presentations
on it and the culture around it.

| Sunday Nov 7, 1999 | One of the unintended (and most destructive) consequences of politicians' "get tough on crime" posturing are what is known as Mandatory Minimums. Convicted of rape? 7 years, with time off for good behavior. Caught with five marijuana plants? 10 years, no parole. Sound fair? Families Against Mandatory Minimums is a national organization working to repeal state/federal mandatory sentencing laws that remove judicial discretion. to Law by pjammer |
| Wednesday Nov 3, 1999 | Prisoners is a

| Friday Oct 29, 1999 | Regardless of its rampant UFOlogist paranoia, this webpage is useful in letting us know that one could
get

What does this mean for the SETI@Home

all get arrested? The mind reels. to Law by crikey |

| Friday Oct 22, 1999 | If you are like me, maybe you wonder exactly when works pass into the public domain. This has all been changed as a result of Sonny Bono or someone using his name, because now that coporations own a lot of works, instead of individuals, and corporations live forever, the list probably won't get much longer. to Law by birgitte |

| Sunday Oct 17, 1999 | Billions of dollars are spent arresting people
for consensual crimes -- actions that are against
the law, but that all participants consent to.
Prostitution, drug use, and gambling (at least in
some areas) are consensual crimes.
Peter McWilliams' book Ain't
Nobody's Business If You Do goes into
great detail about the absurdities of consensual crimes,
and is well worth reading. Plus, the complete text is
