[Law.com] * Porn star Ella Hughes (don't worry, these links are safe for work) has completed her law degree -- but not after having to face a lot of abuse from classmates. [Legal Cheek] * Alex Jones is not having a great week -- what with all the child porn and the threatening lawyers stuff.

[The Recorder] * Texas just killed a law that would have banned guns in airports because if you're going to strap yourself into a tin can at 30K feet, you may as well feel sheer terror on the ground too. [Texas Tribune] * Judge threatens Shearman with ethics charges. [Law360]
