“A judge has ruled the state must turn over e-mails to a man who wants to see messages sent between his wife and a male co-worker at a state office.

Franklin County Circuit Judge Phillip J. Shepherd granted Stephen Malmer’s open-records request Monday after the state Attorney General’s Office said the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet had violated the law by refusing to the release the e-mails.

Malmer, who suspected his wife, Bobbie Malmer, of having an affair, wants to see messages sent between her and former state employee David Moss from 2005 and 2006.”

I don’t see the good it will do, the wife has admitted the affair. Just stirring up more pain for everyone concerned.

The law that won the dubious second place states that it amounts to treason if you use a postage stamp upside down.”

In response to Google changing the clickable areas of AdSense ads, Jennifer Slegg suggests testing a change to smaller ad units (less white space and unclickable areas) and changing the title to “hyperlink blue”.

“China has banned fire department officials from receiving sexual favors as bribes from companies seeking their business, local media reported on Friday.”

Just what kind of sexual favours can a fireman get? Does he (or she) refuse to put a fire out until (s)he has some “relief”?
