BSC Round-up: Aug. 8, 2010

Hi, I’m Bob Loblaw, and this is my law blog.  In other words, blah blah blah–it’s August, it’s hot, TV is slow, endless summer of uninteresting movies continues unchecked, obviously we’re not spending our free time reading on the beaches (or if we are they’re not books we’re willing to review), and if you’ve been too busy [insert summer activity]-ing here to check in every day, worry not.  Here is your cheat sheet, my weekly run-down of our original content so that you can go back to whatever it was confident that you didn’t miss something awesome.
