Yes, I can spell Iraq.

Today was the last exam of first year law school. So time to celebrate - no more IRACs!

The whole summer stretches before us with time to read something besides 100 year old case law, I was wondering what others will be reading this summer? For those of us who are not Georgia10 who can somehow manage law school and to keep on top of the world, what's new out there?

A little late, but just bought Crashing the Gate and The World is Flat to start off the summer - what next, Kossacks?

Advise and Recommend Please!

She's gotten the abuse, now let's let her have some support.

MA Liberal posted a great diary yesterday Peace Takes Courage about Ava Lowery, the 15-year old from Alabama who is receiving mega-abuse from some lame jerks who have nothing better to do than attack the young video animator about some of her films.

Please check out her site at Peace Takes Courage - and give this young lady a hand for her work - and her courage. A little appreciation and support would probably make a world of difference to her right now.

Her e-mail is at the end of her videos - just watch one to find it.

Dr. Rashad Zidan (Iraqi Doctor brought to U.S. by Global Exchange and CodePink) finally gave a face to the suffering - the victims, the orphans and widows. For thousands who heard her message at various venues throughout the country, she has given them a face and given them a voice.

She brought pictures - pictures like those which we have become too accustomed to seeing - and told of her experiences since the invasion - as a mother of four and as a doctor. She speaks of the horrors which now shape their daily lives - of the terror inflicted upon them by the troops of the occupation. When asked what she noticed about America, she remarked on the quiet of the nights - this is the first time in three years she has slept without bombing, without the nightly raids and gunfire.
