Kash: The Chronicle story has two photos. One has Kennedy at the lecturn giving his speech. The other has Kennedy, Thomas and Ginsburg in it at Obama's inauguration. Kennedy is in both photos. What's so strange?

if you want a good laugh, try reading the PC claptrap in the article about juror behavior. Oh, no, black jurors are no less prone to convict, I believe that 100%!! How stupid.

Death photos are inherently viral. Sorry, Carradine family.

Schulte got snubbed. No surprise I guess .. not considered as "prestigious" according to Vault. Schulte was Special Counsel for the deal between Chrysler and Fiat. Without SRZ, this deal may have never happened.
