Other news and links gathered from my friendslist:

H.R. 2943: Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults Act of 2009 -- introduced by Barney Frank (thanks, tomorrowlander)

Woman Changes Name to Princess-Rainbow.com (thanks, fizzyland)

Ex-NY judge gets prison for recruiting prostitutes -- Considering the facts of the case, I'm very glad to see the former judge serve prison time. He truly exhibited predatory behavior.

Attacks on lone blogger reverberate across Web -- I had wondered what exactly was going on with LJ. One minute it was up and running fine, the next I couldn't access a damned thing.
