  on Supreme Court Rules That A Traffic Stop Ends When The 'Objective' Is 'Complete,' Rather Than Whenever The Officer Feels It Is
  Seek consent while you still have the driver’s license in hand. Smell the car for that “pungent” odor, peer knowingly for that furtive gesture, or stare carefully for those watery and lethargic eyes, before you hand over the papers.
  
  Does this read like erotica to anyone else?

  A small correction...

  on Pro Music Artists/Reps Force Shutdown Of Awesome Fan-Music Contest For Video Game
  For the sake of clarity, Red Thread Games (RTG) did not create The Longest Journey or Dreamfall. The people behind RTG were involved in making these games, but the rights to The Longest Journey and Dreamfall are actually held by Funcom a company that RTG later split off from (amicably).

  Actually this is exactly what the fan community surrounding the game has done. There is now a competition to submit your music to an "unofficial" album of music. If the final game support music modding (which there has been suggestion that it might), the end effect will actually be about the same. Which means that this entire shitstorm really was just a waste of time.

  Real Google Results

  on Someone Please Tell Congress That 'Free' Is Not Illegal & Not To Lie About Bogus Search Results
  I just searched for "House of Cards" and went through the first 15 pages of results. I had to skip 5 sites that were in various foreign languages, but aside from those I can confidently state that there were no infringing sites (no place to watch it for free).
  
  In fact the results had quite degraded into uses of the phrase "house of cards" in other contexts.
  
  I have hit page 15 of Google results maybe ten times in my life. It takes an exceptional desperation to travel that far into the desert.
  
  So yeah, total BS.
