What's the Matter with Kansas? Yesterday Salon posted an interview with Thomas Frank about his new book that attempts to explain why the American Midwest forsook its leftist populist beginnings and swung rightward over the course of the 20th century. Frank is the founder and editor of the little journal The Baffler , a unique voice on the left, very hard to concisely describe perhaps the excerpt below will give you a feeling of what Baffler articles are like:
Q: One of the strongest portions of your book is when you reveal that you understand the conservative backlash because you were part of it. It takes a big man to admit to having been a teenage Reaganite.
A:[Laughter.] What's really funny is that the transition that I made I wrote this entire book about how material self-interest has been submerged in this culture. If you think about it, it would've been much more in my interest, coming out of college, to be on the right. If I had stuck with it, I'd be sitting pretty today. Think about the right-wing magazines that are similar to the Baffler. There's a libertarian magazine, same cut size, publishes articles of about the same length. It's edited by quality people, they do a good job. Their circulation is smaller than ours, but everybody that works there has healthcare and generous salaries.

Italy's Environmental Shame What's Right with A.T. Kearney and EDS The NFL: You Call This a Model? How long will the insanity last ("The NFL machine," Cover Story, Jan. 27)? Unlike baseball, hockey, and basketball, football needs three teams: offense, defense, and special. Picture an offensive basketball team switching to a defensive team, then switching to a special team to make the one-pointers. And football championships are determined on the result of one game. Picture the World Series being a one-game affair. In football, the means to an end is mayhem. Picture a base runner in baseball being required to knock out the first baseman, preferably for the rest of the season. In civil life, every football play would be considered assault and battery punishable by a prison term.

"NOTE: PRACTICE AND POTENTIAL OF THE ADVISORY JURY. "
Harvard Law Review APRIL, 1987 100 Harv. L. Rev. 1363 LENGTH: 11871 words NOTE: PRACTICE AND POTENTIAL OF THE ADVISORY JURY. HIGHLIGHT: Were I called upon to decide whether the people had best be omitted in the Legislative or Judiciary department, I would say it is better to leave them out of the Legislature. The execution of the laws is more important than the making [of] them. Thomas Jefferson TEXT: [*1363] Jury trial in civil actions is available in this country when it is guaranteed in the Constitution or when the trial judge believes it is a good idea. An important, substantial body of scholarship has analyzed the former type of jury usage; this Note examines the latter. Part I identifies the broad discretion of the trial judge to call and submit questions to an advisory jury. Part II examines the advisory jury in the context of recent experiments in finding alternative, flexible processes for dispute resolution. Part III then identifies the strong connection between advisory jury use and the goal of community participation in legal proceedings. The Note concludes with a proposal for greatly expanded use of the advisory jury as one way to maintain the legitimacy of legal decisions in light of Realist and radical critiques of the legal system.

Compiled by Salon Staff Nov. 06, 2000 Ralph Nader's candidacy has been the most deeply galvanizing force in this election. His divisive campaign has split liberal and progressive voters who are faced with the predicament of having to choose between the promise of third party politics and the possibility that a vote for longtime consumer advocate Nader could contribute to a George W. Bush victory on Nov. 7. The following letters, which have been making the e-mail rounds, illustrate how deeply the rift has grown in the days leading up to the election. Dear Mr. Nader: Over the years, you have accomplished a great deal for the American people. Your candidacy in this election has been important. You have raised serious issues that need to be addressed. However, the time has come to forego ideology and self-interest and step aside. You need to reconsider the consequences of your campaign. If you do not, you will ensure that George W. Bush is the next United States president. You are focusing your campaign in crucial states such as Michigan, Minnesota and Oregon, where, if converted to you, Al Gore supporters will give the state to Bush with disastrous consequences for the future of this nation.

Section G (4 a) (at 740-43):  U.S. Supreme Court [Judicial Interpretation of Treaties and Customary International Law]
 As the coursebook noted, in 1989 the United State Supreme Court held 5 to 4 that the death penalty for a crime committed at age 16 or 17 did not constitute unconstitutional cruel and unusual punishment.  Stanford v. Kentucky , 492 U.S. 361, 380 (1989).)  In so doing, the majority (Chief Justice Rehnquist and Justices Scalia, White, O’Connor, and Kennedy) rejected the relevance of international law and experience while the minority (Justices Brennan, Marshall, Blackmun , and Stevens) rested their contrary opinion about interpretation of the Eighth Amendment, in part, on the overwhelming international disapproval of such uses of capital punishment. ( See David Weissbrodt International Human Rights—Law, Policy, and Process

Tuesday :: April 05, 2005 Death Penalty Facts by TChris Amnesty International USA recently updated its "facts and figures on the death penalty." A noteworthy fact: In 2004, 97 per cent of all known executions took place in China, Iran, Viet Nam and the USA. What wonderful company we keep. Another interesting fact: Since 1973, 117 prisoners have been released in the USA after evidence emerged of their innocence of the crimes for which they were sentenced to death. There were six such cases in 2004. Some prisoners had come close to execution after spending many years under sentence of death. Recurring features in their cases include prosecutorial or police misconduct; the use of unreliable witness testimony, physical evidence, or confessions; and inadequate defence representation. Despite concerns about executing the innocent, 59 people were put to death in 2004 in the United States. More than 3,400 prisoners were facing a death sentence as of the first of this year. Update (TL): The full report is here "Our report indicates that governments and citizens around the world have realized what the United States government refuses to admit?that the death penalty is an inhumane, antiquated form of punishment," said Dr. William

Mumia Abu Jamal
A black man, Mumia Abu Jamal was for many years on death row after a trial that represented the extreme of procedural unfairness. A convicted cop killer, it is impossible to say for sure that Mr. Abu-Jamal is guilty, because our vaunted "due process" was suspended in his case. And it was clearly suspended because, unlike so many prominent black figures, he simply would not compromise with American racism. He would not moderate his appearance, his dress or his beliefs in exchange for a ticket to the mainstream. As a member of the Black Panthers, and later as a radio journalist covering the Move bombing in Philadelphia, he uncompromisingly identified racism wherever he saw it and would not shut up. Writing of the beatings, torture and occasional murder of prisoners by guards in Pennsylvania's maximum security prisons, Mr. Abu-Jamal says in his book Live From Death Row, (Addison-Wesley 1995), p. 105: But all [prisoners] found out how fragile the very system that stole their very freedom was when the state committed crimes against them. All found out that words like 'justice,' 'law,' 'civil rights,' and, yes, 'crime' have different and elastic meanings depending on whose rights were violated, who committed what crimes against whom, and whether one works for the system or against it.

JAMES LAWRENCE KING, District Judge.
I. Introduction
The government of Cuba, on February 24, 1996, in outrageous contempt for international law and basic human rights, murdered four human beings in international airspace over the Florida Straits. The victims were Brothers to the Rescue pilots, flying two civilian, unarmed planes on a routine humanitarian mission, searching for rafters in the waters between Cuba and the Florida Keys. As the civilian planes flew over international waters, a Russian built MiG 29 of the Cuban Air Force, without warning, reason, or provocation, blasted the defenseless planes out of the sky with sophisticated air-to-air missiles in two separate attacks. The pilots and their aircraft disintegrated in the mid-air explosions following the impact of the missiles. The destruction was so complete that the four bodies were never recovered. The personal representatives of three of the deceased instituted this
FN1. The Congressional purpose behind this section was to protect foreign states from "unfounded default judgments rendered solely upon a procedural default." Compania Interamericana, 88 F.3d at 950-51. As detailed more fully below, the abundant evidence offered at trial more than satisfies the Court that Plaintiffs are entitled to relief. Moreover, it bears mention that Cuba's default has been willful, as evidenced by its diplomatic note rejecting this Court's jurisdiction, further bolstering the entry of a default judgment. See Commercial Bank of Kuwait v. Rafidain Bank, 15 F.3d 238 (2d Cir.1994).

I. INTRODUCTION
The last decade has spawned a reexamination of the effectiveness of the jury system in the United States. Jury verdicts rendered in certain highly publicized trials have shocked the public and caused journalists and scholars alike to criticize juries as ill-equipped to handle the cases before them. Some critics have even questioned the basic role of the jury as an instrument of democracy and a form of sovereignty of the people. To counter this criticism, others argue that the intense attack on the jury system by scholars and journalists is a result of disgust with unexpected verdicts and is not based on empirical evidence about the system, which shows that juries reach a defensible decision most of the time. Despite the ongoing debate about the effectiveness of the American jury, several countries have recently adopted or are seriously considering adopting their own jury systems. One of the more heated debates about adopting a jury [*pg 262] system is occurring in Japan.
