  1. FREE THE MOUSE
  2. The crux of Lessig's argument is that, by periodically extending existing copyrights, Congress is squirreling-around with it's Constitutional duty to limit them; The situation becomes dubiously close to de facto copyright-in-perpetuity, which ain't what the Constitution means by "limited." I don't know what the Nine Most Mysterious And Important People In America will think of this argument, but it makes good horse sense to me.

  1. Study Finds Big Increase in Black Men as Inmates Since 1980
    
    (New York Times)
  2. The increase in the black male prison population coincides with the prison construction boom that began 1980. At that time, three times more black men were enrolled in institutions of higher learning than behind bars.
    
    At this rate, they're going to eventually run out of bruthas to imprison, as we'll all be in prison. What will they do then? (username/password may be required: use cibblog/cibcib)

  2. Exclusive world premiere of "White America!"
    
    I don't know, BoyCaught's not feeling it on this one. It's a little hard to listen to, not exactly beautiful music he made for you to just cherish. But as a social commentator, Slimy Shady makes some interesting points here, like when he talks about doing the "math" behind records sales, and since he looks like most of the suburban white kids his music speaks to -- but produced by "authentic" Dr. Dre -- he'll make at least twice as much as if he were a black rapper. So you mean to tell me, by Eminem logic, that a black man has to work at least twice as hard in America to get the same level of success? What happened to the "level playing field" and equal opportunity, and all that?

    It's refreshing to see that many of these people whom we prop up as "stars" are just as banal as we are. They just have a lot more money, and more cameras pointed at them. Which begs the question: "Why do we prop some people up as stars?" Are they somehow better than us just because they can sing, or act or hit a baseball over a fence? Or is it just because more cameras are pointed at them?

  2. Raid on Kmart lot leaves shock, angerTeenagers, parents question arrests of 425 outside store. A crowd of angry teenagers and their parents accused police Sunday of arresting many innocent bystanders during an overnight raid on a west Houston parking lot where youths apparently congregate. Scores of Houston police officers swarmed onto the Kmart parking lot in the 8400 block of Westheimer about 12:30 a.m. Sunday and arrested about 425 people for criminal trespassing, a misdemeanor. Houston Police Department spokesman Martin DeLeon said many cars were towed. DeLeon said business owners have been complaining about youths gathering on their parking lots on weekend nights and causing a commotion.

  1. Women remember disturbing, emotional images more than men, study shows
    
    (Stanford News Service)
  2. "That would suggest a potential physical mechanism in the brain where women incorporate emotional experience into their memory. Because different parts of the brain turned on in men, it seems there is more separation in their brains between emotional processes and memory formation processes." In other words, he said, memory in men included less emotional information. According to Gabrieli, researchers want to use the findings to check whether such neural mechanisms might be associated with people suffering from depression. According to statistics, twice as many women suffer from the illness as men.

  1. Black Farmers to Rally at USDA
    
    (ABCNEWS.com)
  2. Philip Haynie recalls walking into the agricultural loan office in Heathsville, Va., in the fall of 1998, seeking a loan that would enable him to keep farming. He was greeted by an account executive holding a handgun ... after his loan application was denied, Haynie filed a complaint with the Agriculture Department, claiming he was turned down because he is black. Haynie's appeal was denied, and he's now bankrupt. The agent's punishment was being suspended for a day without pay and given early retirement.
    
    The loan officer then said: "We don't pay you damn eggplants money to pick the crops, see! You just pick 'em ... and you'll like it! But jokes aside, this isn't a very funny story. Forget about reparations for crimes past, how about settling current debts? This line from the article is classic: Black farmers "have been asked to be patient, but we're going to come up with ways to be held accountable and achieve some progress." A tale oft-told.

    (Marsalis Music)
  2. Branford Marsalis: "The consolidation of the record industry into major conglomerates has turned the business into a mega-hit pop music machine with a very short term focus. Artists who want to be musicians, not marketing creations, have very few places to record anymore."

    (Guardian Unlimited | Special reports)
  2. The body of the militant leader was found with gunshot wounds in his residence in Baghdad, confirming a report in the Palestinian Al-Ayyam newspaper today that he had committed suicide three days ago, the sources told the Reuters news agency.
