The New York Times will stop charging for access to parts of its Web site, effective at midnight tonight
The move comes two years to the day after The Times began the subscription program, TimesSelect, which has charged $49.95 a year, or $7.95 a month, for online access to the work of its columnists and to the newspaper’s archives. TimesSelect has been free to print subscribers to The Times and to some students and educators.
In addition to opening the entire site to all readers, The Times will also make available its archives from 1987 to the present without charge, as well as those from 1851 to 1922, which are in the public domain. There will be charges for some material from the period 1923 to 1986, and some will be free.
I have one leg that was chewed on, shaved and sewed up. And one that got popped out of it's socket, popped back in and taped to my side for the next 2 weeks. At least I'm on pain killers.

With the moderating, centrist voice of Sandra Day O'Connor now gone from the Supreme Court, a conservative counterrevolution that had been stymied for 20 years has now begun.this is a heavy listen!
So says Jeffrey Toobin in his new book The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court. His book is about how this counterrevolution developed. It's also a behind-the-scenes look at the court, its recent decisions and the personalities of the justices behind them.
The Nine is based on interviews with justices and their law clerks that were given on a not-for-attribution basis — meaning, in plain language, that Toobin heard stories, opinions and analyses directly from the horses' mouths, but isn't allowed to reveal who said what.
Toobin is senior legal analyst for CNN, staff writer at The New Yorker and a former Assistant U.S. Attorney.

The Flexitarian Table @ 171 East Broadway
Ron Castellano and Joel Barkley’s new restaurant inspired from chef Peter Berley’s “The Flexitarian Table” cookbook. The dishes from the book appeal to a sophisticated palate that may or may not want a meat free dinner (think mix and match meat). Slated to open October 2007

Perpetual State of Emergency

Notice: Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks
Consistent with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, in Proclamation 7463, with respect to the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, New York, New York, the Pentagon, and aboard United Airlines flight 93, and the continuing and immediate threat of further attacks on the United States.
Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, last extended on September 5, 2006, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2007. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

I guess this is a couple months old, but I just saw a story on CNN and that's the first I heard of it: Grant Achatz diagnosed with cancer of the tongue. Traditional surgical methods would most likely result in the loss of his palette, so he's trying some other things first. Achatz founded the Chicago molecular gastronomic restaurant Alinea, often named as the top restaurant in the U.S.
