In addition, I am the author/editor of "Cyber-Esq.," a blog that focuses on the legal and practical issues of the growing field of "virtual lawyering." That blog can be found at www.cyberesq.wordpress.com. By the end of the year, I anticipate the release of addiional blogs/sites - a photoblog about police misconduct, a legal news site aimed at the Gen-Y audience, a blog and site about depression and anxiety in the legal profession, and a blog about critical thinking skills.

Lastly, I am developing a student blog and website, with social network profiles for use at John F. Kennedy University School of Law. I am often asked to help develop graphics and content for blog and website owners, which I do on an amateur or hobby basis for now.
Why I use Clipmarks
Clipmarks is a great tool because it does exactly what it says it is going to do, and it always has. I think Clipmarks was the first or one of the first add ons I used in FF when I was first converted as a Mozillan. It has only gotten better over the years, so I continue to use it. I Its integration with Amplify is wonderful.

 In recognition of the 20th anniversary of the Czech's Velvet Revolution, I clipped this article along with a few pictures of Prague. I have not had the pleasure of visiting Prague, but a close friend of mine did some years ago. To this day, he remarks that it is the most beautiful of the European capitals.

 Imagine traveling half a billion light years to get somewhere, only to find no one is there...that's the tongue-in-cheek scenario written up in this nifty article from dailygalaxy.com. The picture below shows scientists glimpse of the oldest light in the universe to finally reach earth. According to the article, this is the universe's "first starlight...light "at the beginning of time." I don't pretend to understand the physics behind all of this, but I do enjoy such awe-inspiring pictures. I hope you do, too.

POPS80-Year Anniversary Of "Black Tuesday"

by ericgyoung  10-29-2009   
 More commonly known as "Black Tuesday," October 29, 1929 was the last of four so-called "black" days which ushered in the Great Depression. In fact, the stock market collapse in the U.S. for at least one month after Black Tuesday. Eventually, the Great Depression grew into a worldwide financial calamity that lasted, by most conventional accounts, until the end of World War II. By 1933, the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) was cut in half. The Depression caused many farmers to lose their farms. At the same time, years of erosion and a drought created the “Dust Bowl” in the Midwest, where no crops could grow. Many traveled to California to find work, a subject written about by John Steinbeck in "The Grapes of Wrath." Many others ended up living as “hobos” or in “Hoovervilles”, make-shift homeless encampments named after then-President Herbert Hoover. During the 1928 Presidential campaign, Hoover campaigned on a number of slogans, one of which was "Vote for Pros

 I thought I would end the day's ampligistics with a reflection back on the movies that were most popular the year the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that bans against inter-racial marriage were unconstitutional. Interestingly enough, "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner" made the list, according to Internet Movie Database. Enjoy your weekend, everyone.

 I had forgotten this bit of history about the life of Richard and Mildred Loving, an unfortunate post script but their life was well-lived together nonetheless inasmuch as they expanded the freedom of all of us. This blog post from Slate also has an interesting link to the Loving's case.

POPSDorothea Lange - Artist With Vision Beyond The Lens Of Any Camera (Errata Clog)

 In response to my clog post entitled, "Strong Support For Health Care Reform With Public Option," I have participated in some discussions about the stunning work of Dorothea Lange. As many of you may know, Dorothea Lange is the photographer/artist who took the famous picture, "Migrant Mother," which is featured in my clog. I entitled this picture incorrectly as "The Dust Bowl," so please accept my apologies for this error. If any of my clogs ever contain incorrect information of this nature, I ask that my readers let me know right away. Aside from correcting errata, I wanted to take the opportunity to highlight Dorothea Lange's work further in the clips below. I clipped these bits from the My Hero website. Dorothea Lange is an interesting individual who, in my opinion, captured the class struggles in this country better than any artist of her day with a medium that was not then fully realized. Dorothea Lange died on October 16, 1965. If you are not familiar with the life
