Judge Reviewing Pirate Bay Trial Bias Is Removed
oh-my-god sends word that the Swedish judge assigned to review whether the trial judge in the Pirate Bay trial was biased has now been removed — for bias. Here's a local news account in Swedish, which Google fails to translate. We've discussed the convolutions of this case on more than one occasion.
After racing events, the winner stands on the dais and sprays champagne over the audience before guzzling several mouthfuls himself. Who knows, maybe a day before the race he was living it up at the bar. But that doesn't mean he can't drive in the important race.

Religious people should put loaded guns to their heads and pull the triggers -- God will forgive -- and they'll get to live in the clouds with their milk and their honey and their 72 virgins while saving the right-thinking folks a lot of hassle.
Obviously, in /. universe, a judge who respects the law of copyright is biased. In other, alternative, universes judges who respect the law are respected.
Looks even more like a dong on the euro coins
