* The “Naked Cowboy,” who went after M&Ms for using his likeness, is now being sued by Gameloft. The video game maker wants a declaration that a character in its game is only “reminiscent” of the Cowboy. Perhaps Gameloft should spend its time improving its game, “New York Nights,” described as “simulat[ing] life in New York City, with tasks such moving into a Greenwich Village apartment, getting a job and navigating the city’s neighborhoods.” That’s not a game; that’s the nightmare that many of us are living these days.

* Personal-injury attorney Bill Marler is an Omnivore’s Delight for Washington State University. [New York Times]
* The White House scrambles to address the abortion issue and where SCOTUS nominee Sonia Sotomayor will stand on Roe v. Wade. [Washington Post]
* “Sotomayor’s sharp tongue will make her a match for Scalia.” [ABA Journal]
* Rihanna may make a court appearance in the Chris Brown assault trial. [Associated Press]
* Man charged for pissing off the IRS. [Smoking Gun]
