Best in Law Blogs : The LexBlog Network : April 29, 2011

I tried to stay away from being quite as heavy on AT&T Mobility LLC. v. Concepcion today as I was yesterday but this is a big case the case and I’m still seeing a lot of excellent and varying opinions on it. Also, Linda Evers at Smart Grid Legal News has another great interview. Total posts on The LexBlog Network today: 149.

A busy, busy day at LexBlog means we get to this roundup a tad bit tardy. In some of the biggest news of the last 48 hours, U.S. District Court Judge Susan Nelson granteded a preliminary junction in the players’ case against the NFL and temporarily lifted the league’s lockout. Gregg Clifton of Jackson Lewis has the analysis. Total posts on The LexBlog Network today: 133.

A wet and gloomy Monday in Seattle sees 146 posts hit The LexBlog Network. Today we see some coverage on a subject that’s seemingly slipped past the vibrant privacy law community, that being the outage faced by Sony’s Playstation Network and the possibility that a breach and lost credit card data may be in play. Interesting stuff.

As much as I’m embarrassed to admit it, I was eating the Jennie-O frozen turkey burgers up until about a month ago. Yep, “these turkey burgers”http://www.marlerblog.com/attorney-videos/27-tons-of-hormel-jennie-o-turkey-burgers-sold-at-sams-club-linked-to-12-salmonella-cases-in-10-stat/. I only stopped eating them when the generic brand became a dollar or two less expensive. Sometimes we choose to ignore the potential dangers that lurk around us because it’s hard to accurately comprehend their place in reality—and doing so would leave most living a life that’s too fearful to enjoy. That said, those dangers are around, and a recent report on Food Safety News proves quite alarming: a significant percentage of Seattle-area grocery store chicken is tainted by bacteria.

New blogs joining The LexBlog Network for the week of 4/11-4/15

Another week flies by as three more publications join The LexBlog Network. While two of the three are business blogs, don’t expect them to be quite the same. According to Google Maps, if you wanted to set out on foot, and then via kayak, it’d only take you 215 days (and 16,247 miles) to travel between their respective locations. Have a great weekend everyone.
