[How Appealing] * Michele Roberts, leading litigatrix and former Skadden partner, is settling into her new job as executive director of the National Basketball Players Association. [New York Times] * Newly released deposition testimony from Bill Cosby will probably only worsen his PR woes. [Associated Press] * Stuck in the office today with nothing to do?
