- Wikimedia has sued the NSA and DOJ over surveillance (BBC)
- Robin Thicke and Pharrell will appeal the “Blurred Lines” verdict (Pitchfork)
- South Carolina has set a requirement that its magistrate judges must be able to read and tell time (BoingBoing)
- A man who kept his marijuana in a container labeled “Not Weed” was found out and arrested (Journal Star, Lincoln)
- And a man with a glass eye took it in court out and threw it at his attorney. Gross (Above the Law)
