Iraqi Kurdistan takes a journalist-hunting page from Russia, but people actually fight back.
Maureen Dowd revisits the unfortunate spinning of Elena Kagan's single status. On a personal note, I can't tell whether or not I should be offended--whether or not a friend meant this comment to be catty, no pun intended, when, at Sunday's bbq, the unbearable woman, whom I'd not seen in years, asked whether I'd kids, and a friend said, "no, she has a cat." In context, when I told this friend that I'd bought a four-bedroom house (recall the circumstances: it cost little more or even no more than a one-bedroom condo), she said, "one for you, one for the cat..." implying something similar to the very concept Maureen Dowd slams in her column. I ascribe it largely to bitterness--not a small part of her is jealous that I have a life. On a less personal but more amusing note, I direct you to the related 30 Rock "The Moms" episode:
