City finds 1966 ordinance banning horses: Urban colt owner could be fined
By: Scott Smith
Dyanna Neal may soon be getting a letter from the city, telling her she can’t keep Poco the Judge in her backyard anymore.

Sonia Sotomayor made history Thursday, winning approval from the Senate to become the next Supreme Court justice — and the first Hispanic to sit on the nation's mightiest bench.
Sotomayor's confirmation came despite strong Republican opposition and on a mostly party line vote of 68-31. But the partisan bickering surrounding Sotomayor isn't likely to end once she is sworn in on Saturday morning. In less than a month, the court is scheduled to rehear arguments in a high-profile campaign finance...

Salazar v. Bruno, oral arguments Oct. 7
At the center of this case is whether an 8-foot cross erected on federal land 75 years ago as a war memorial and maintained by the government violates the First Amendment principle of separation of church and state. Lower courts invalidated a land swap that would have created for the cross an island of private land in the Mojave National Preserve. Cross supporters argue that the Oregon resident who challenged its location has no ...
