As you are most likely aware, last week director Roman Polanski was arrested in Switzerland on an outstanding warrant for his arrest in the U.S. He fled to Europe in the 1970s after being charged with giving prescription drugs and liquor to a 13-year-old girl, then raping her. He plead guilty to a lesser charge of improper sexual conduct with a minor (and said he wasn’t aware she was 13), then left the country and generally avoided countries with an extradition agreement with the U.S.

Paul Krugman on the ‘teachable moment’ in the wake of the IOC decision to go with Rio’s cute little brown bikini-clad behinds instead of Chicago’s big shoulders. “Cheers erupted” at the headquarters of the conservative Weekly Standard, according to a blog post by a member of the magazine’s staff, with the headline “Obama loses!

Friday’s jobs report said 263,000 jobs were lost in September. BUT that is after 571,000 people gave up actively looking for work . The number of jobs lost last month was 263,000 plus 571,000 = 834,000 . The “stimulus plan” is currently creating (and/or saving) between 200,000 and 250,000 jobs a month.
