* Speaking of female Biglaw partners, Bracewell partner Barbara Jones's $700 per hour rate as special master in the review of materials seized from Michael Cohen's office has added up to a pretty YUGE bill for just one week's worth of work: $47,390. [New York Law Journal]
* The Justice Department approved a merger between Bayer and Monsanto, but only after the companies agreed to dump $9 billion in business assets. "Today’s news makes it clear that our antimonopoly laws are completely worthless," said one farm group that's just thrilled by the news. [Washington Post]
* Eduardo M. Peñalver, the first Latino dean of an Ivy League law school, has been reappointed to a second five-year term as dean of Cornell Law after achieving quite a few milestones for employment and bar pass rates at the school. [Cornell Chronicle]
* Briana Williams, a single mother who requested an epidural while she was in labor so her contractions wouldn't interfere with her completion of a final exam, recently graduated from Harvard Law School.
