From The Stranger: “. . . Or they will be at 4 pm tomorrow afternoon. Judge Jones has granted Duran and Olejnik’s attorneys’ request to release their clients, who have been in prison—without convictions or charges—for five months and in solitary confinement for two months. “I wrote about visiting them in prison, and how they got there, in this story. “. . . this is happy, happy news. And it’s a correction of a situation in the justice system that has seemed very, very far from just. “The third grand jury refuser, Maddie Pfeiffer, is still in prison, but his attorney did not join the motion to file for his release. That motion, I’m guessing, isn’t far away. . . .”

This is good news, as far as it goes. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/feb/26/illegal-immigrants-released-detention-centers-sequ/ “The sequester is officially still three days away, but the Obama administration already is making the first cuts, officials confirming that the Homeland Security Department already has released several hundred illegal immigrants [sic] from detention in order to save money. The move is proving controversial. Immigrant-rights groups say it shows the administration was detaining folks it never should have gone after in the first place, . . . ‘Over the last week, ICE has reviewed several hundred cases and placed these individuals on methods of supervision less costly than detention,’ ICE said in a statement. ‘All of these individuals remain in removal proceedings. …'” ICE openly admits that it was imprisoning at least several hundreds of people in hellhole “detention centers” even though they admittedly posed no significant threat at all to public safety. The good news is that some of these 700 have been released. The bad news is that they are still subject to deportation, and there tens of thousands more still in detention who have not been released. Immigration should not be a crime at all, and I can only dream that they shut the whole thing down and that every immigrant in detention is immediately and unconditionally released. Free the ICE 34,000 and all political prisoners.

This is the right direction for thinking about e-mail interfaces I think. Tempts me to go back to Thunderbird for a while. http://jonoscript.wordpress.com/2013/02/25/lovebird-is-ready-for-beta-testing/
