* No lactation for Jared Lee Loughner. Forcing him to take anti-psychotic medication would violate his rights. And it would probably make him competent to stand trial, but who cares about that, right? [CNN]

* Before all of his campaign finance shenanigans, John Edwards wanted to hang a shingle in New York. A potential partner said he’d bring “cachet” to the firm. Yes, the cachet of a $400 haircut. [USA Today]

* Miller High Life has offered to pay any taxes that Christian Lopez may owe because he caught Derek Jeter’s 3,000th hit. Which would make him owe more taxes. I hate knowing so much about tax law. [CNBC]

* Businesses in Nevada can’t discriminate based on gender unless they make it rain. Do you care about gender discrimination if it’ll get you a ticket to poundtown at ladies’ night? [Las Vegas Sun]

* Law grads in New York might want to take note of this Starbucks ruling. Even though the benefits are great for assistant managers, you won’t be able to get any of the barista tips. [Reuters]

* So, remember that time your mom died and you buried her at our cemetery like 20 years ago? Yeah, about that. We screwed up. That’s not your mom’s grave. Our bad. [New Jersey Newsroom]
