This website may be my new favorite toy.

The Mysterious Disappearance of Dozens of Women
MISSING: Dozens and dozens of articulate, well-informed women, capable of affording the US news media a broader set of knowledge, experiences, and opinions than the usual set of groaning gray men.
What happened to them? Why aren’t they ever on TV? What, pray tell, can be done?
Where, O where can they ever be?
Try looking here, for starters.
Not sure this is something you can expect Nancy Grace to get interested in however.

Mooooot Court
Hard to make this any more marvelous — the judge in a big L.A. porn case turns out to have his own unusual peccadillos:
In an interview Tuesday with The Times, Kozinski acknowledged posting sexual content on his website. Among the images on the site were a photo of naked women on all fours painted to look like cows and a video of a half-dressed man cavorting with a sexually aroused farm animal. He defended some of the adult content as "funny" but conceded that other postings were inappropriate.

Kozinski is one of the nation’s highest-ranking judges and has been mentioned as a possible candidate for the U.S. Supreme Court. He was named chief judge of the 9th Circuit last year and is considered a judicial conservative on most issues. He was appointed to the federal bench by President Reagan in 1985.
Mentioned for the Supreme Court? By whom — the United Dairy Farmers?
UPDATE: Then again, dude might be getting treated unfairly. Or not.
Seems to swing on whether he was responsible for material on his own publicly accessible server. Which may be a bit like the online equivalent of being responsible for what people can see through your window if they look in from the street. The argument now seems to be over whether the weirdness was deep inside, and you had to squint, or pressed up close enough to the window that anyone would assume it to be visible. So even a judge caught with cow porn while doing an obscenity case is still in an ethical gray area. Holy crap. That’s almost more fun to get your head around about than the story itself.
