Roger Ebert's tribute to Gene Siskel is a model of grace and generosity. We all knew they didn't like each other, but Ebert explains how
much they did like each other--how much they responded to each other and triggered each other's responses. ... Siskel was quite that awful. But the writer knows he turf a whole lot

Much of the world is familiar with Grace O'Malley, Jack Sparrow and Long John Silver, and those who've delved into the history of the Alien

Global judicial dialogue is something many of us (to name just a few, Vicki Jackson, Judith Resnik, Roger Alford, and me) have studied in recent years. Offering a smorgasbord of
food for thought is the Canadian Supreme Court's unanimous invalidation Friday, in Charkaoui, of certain counterterrorist detention procedures. Worth noting is the reliance of Chief
Justice Beverley McLachlin -- 1 of 4 women on the 9-member Court -- on her U.S. counterpart's 2004 holding in Rasul that noncitizens ...

180 F.3d 349, 354 (1st Cir. 1999) (one year grace period in for petitions after effective date of AEDPA) applies because Congress's control
over immigration proceedings is "plenary." So, he doesn't get a grace period. Secondly, and somewhat less interestingly, the First affirms the
