US Supreme Court allows for the possiblity that the pope would be required to testify in sex abuse cases that occured w/i the US--not going to happen, but it dos suggest that the us supreme court is not as enamoured with religious power as it once was.

some of the g20 weapons were intended for larp sessions.

one of the biggest problems with the idea of pwa living longer, is that the health structures designed to help with a disease that started as an emergency are not equipped to budget for a disease that is now chronic--americans dealing with the funding here are struggling with this, and some advocates say the funding crunch is as bad as the regan years.

charles burchfield review by hollond cotter...looks like a great revival of a under rated american visionary. schedjeal's review of the show in the new yorker this week talks a little more about the history.

best use of those awful bronze dolphin sculptures, this time in vancouver, perhpas ever

half letter press does great low cost, high concept, artist books--this one is a life size poster of a section of a 7-11 wall.
