Hull McGuire's Bennet Kelley: He's First in the 'Hood.

Bennet Kelley's Cyber Report on internet law just won First Place at the Los Angeles Press Club's Southern California Journalism Awards for Best In-House or Corporate Publication. Judges Comments: "Lots of news and info on an emerging field of law (and business), presented simply with lots of links for even more information." We take back some of our comments in previous posts about Bennet. So Internet Law has a future, eh?

The Economist: Fiscal Angst and Agony in Greece.

So you think America has problems? Yesterday's The Economist tries to make sense of the ongoing and painful debate in debt-ridden Greece over a fiscal rescue plan. See "What have we become?" Excerpt:

Theodoros Pangalos, the famously blunt deputy prime minister, put it even more starkly. If Greece were to break with its would-be saviours and launch a new drachma, local banks would be besieged by panicked depositors and the army would have to keep order. “The shops will empty, and some people will jump out of windows,” he told El Mundo, a Spanish daily.

(Last year Mr Pangalos irked some compatriots, and impressed others, by saying that ordinary Greeks, as well as the political elite, had wasted the loans and subsidies that rained down on the country: “We ate it up together.”)

The Furries: Woofstock in Pittsburgh for 6th straight year.

Wouldn't date one, though. We applaud the return of The Furries here--and we are pleasantly surprised and curious. Has Pittsburgh finally become less culturally conservative, staid and conventional in the past six years? Or do 'Burghers just love cartoons more than the rest of us? See at Reuters "Pittsburgh Inundated by Furries".
