Alice Lee's Journal

Week's Links
It is so completely April. I am behind on everything and dooooomed. I have no idea how I am going to get through this coming week let alone the full month. If this month were a hill, I'd get off and walk my bike. If this month were a river, I'd head to shore and carry my kayak overland. If this month were next December, I'd be lucky to have so little stress heading in to quals. :-( Aiigh.

Closing out tabs in Firefox to cut down on visual / mental clutter. Look, stuff:

Joshua Bell v. rush hour, which is actually entitled "Pearls Before Breakfast," is interesting on many different levels. If you have five minutes go read this. Really.
Henry Blodget writes about ISPs selling click stream data.
WaPo piece touches on the mess created by the specially designated nationals list of people with whom it is illegal to do business.
Kerr's Four Models of Fourth Amendment Protections.
Professor Solove is an author on the concurring opinions blog (mostly privacy law issues, some econ, a smattering of general interest).
The University of Washington has a great collection on Internet analysis.
Sample Java code for parsing XML and the Document Builder class.
Nice examples for SED.
The few FTC actions for violating privacy policies.
A few interesting bookcases: modular & curved, which has the advantage of many configurations. Then there's a corner piece, which might look really interesting depending on the paint colors behind it. It's hard to beat glow in the dark paint.

Time for another short-term to do list.
