Jurist claims President Bush will wait until after July 8 to offer an O'Connor replacement. O'Connor dismisses her importance as a swing vote on the Court suggesting she was just "open to persuasion", according to this Washington Post story.
Not as surprising a move as it seems, at least to the White House, which was circulating a list of possible female candidates last week. I think you can surmise who might be hot based on these biographical summaries. And then...the nomination process...
balkanization points to the bitter fight ahead, more contentious because of O'Connor's pivotal role on the Court. The problems inherent in a Gonzales nomination and Supreme Court statistics you don't need to know are all at SouthernAppeal.

Geared towards people with dyslexia, this book would likely be useful for anyone who has difficulty looking up words in a standard dictionary, including those who find themselves in circumstances where dialects or accents have caused a misunderstanding of the pronunciation. The book includes brief but complete directions for finding base words along with prefixes and suffixes. It doesn't cover proper nouns at all, and for complete definitions and correct pronunciations, this book should be used in conjunction with a standard dictionary.
Our edition is revised and condensed. The accompanying CD includes a powerpoint presentation for PC computers on using the resource, along with Mozart accompaniment, which may be helpful for auditory learners.

Garner, Bryan A. 2009. Black's Law Dictionary, Standard Ninth Edition. St. Paul, MN: Thomson West.
REFERENCE KF156.B53 2009
You’ll find so much more than just definitions in the 9th edition of Black’s Law Dictionary. Want to dazzle your friends with witty legal maxims, find out what a particular abbreviation means, or determine just what the “Office of Thrift Supervision” does? Black’s Law Dictionary can help.
The definitions cover legal terms, organizations and government offices, and legislative acts. The entries are robust, with many describing the origin of the term, the date of first use, a subject matter tag identifying the associated field of law, cross references to related entries, a quotation about the term from another legal source, and citations to West’s key number system. Explanatory or encyclopedic information frequently appears together with the definition. For example, the entry for “ex post facto law” provides a definition (“A law that impermissibly applies retroactively…”) but also tells us that “Ex post facto criminal laws are prohibited by the U.S. Constitution.” Many entries include subentries for terms relating to the same general topic. So if you want to find out what types of insurance exist, just look up “insurance,” and you’ll find over 100 subentries ranging from “accidental and health insurance” to “whole-life insurance.”
Among the eight appendices, you'll find legal abbreviations, legal maxims, the United States Constitution, a list of all of the members of the Supreme Court, and the British Regnal Years (just in case you want to find out when Queen Victoria reigned).
