In January 2007, I received an e-mail message from Ed., the mysterious and pseudonymous editor of <i>Blawg Review</i>. By that point, I'd hosted a couple of Blawg Reviews and become a "sherpa", assisting Ed. and the guest hosts to source material for each Monday's post. Over the lengthy time that I'd been corresponding with him, however, I'd never received a message like this one:<br />
<blockquote>Subject: Living Will for Blawg Review - Open in Case of Emergency ;-)</blockquote>
I was honored that he'd entrusted me with the keys to a project which he had nurtured so carefully for so long. I was amused that I felt such a sense of responsibility for a task given me by a man whose name I didn't know. When a couple years or so later I retired as a sherpa (true to form, Ed. never accepted that resignation, preferring to call it my "<a href="http://blawgreview.blogspot.com/2009/09/sherpa-sabbatical.html">Sherpa Sabbatical</a>"), he wrote, "Colin Samuels, Sherpa Emeritus, will always be a key player in Blawg Review (he's got the login and password keys) so he remains, officially, the editor in waiting should I kick the bucket. Truth be told, Colin is more afraid of that eventuality than I am." I most certainly was.<br />
<br />
Though Blawg Review reached an unofficial ending of sorts more than a year ago, word of Ed.'s passing spread quickly last week amongst the many who'd written Blawg Reviews for him, who'd spoken with him at one of the many meet-ups and conferences he attended, who'd corresponded with him over the years, or who simply appreciated the tremendous contribution he'd made to our corner of the internet.<br />
<br />
Shortly after hearing that sad news, Mark Bennett proposed a final edition of Blawg Review in Ed.'s memory; Scott Greenfield, Antonin Pribetić, Brian Tannebaum, Ken White, Eric Turkewitz, George Wallace, Gideon, Ron Coleman, and Mike Semple-Piggot joined his effort. Today, each of us will pay tribute to a man who played a central role in establishing the legal blogosphere. Starting with <a href="http://blog.simplejustice.us/2013/11/04/blawg-review-335-2/">Greenfield's post</a>, each chapter will link to the next, before returning to this post and closing the loop one last time.<br />
<br />
It's our privilege to honor Ed., a man who gave the legal blogosphere a distinct voice, even though he never did tell us his name.<br />

<a href="http://www.blogger.com/kennedy-law.blogspot.com/2012/07/blawg-review-323-mas-o-menos.html">Blawg Review #324</a> at the law blog of Texas attorney Paul Kennedy, The Defense Rests, marks this day in 1964 when Lyndon Baines Johnson signed into law the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_1964">Civil Rights Act of 1964</a> ending segregation in the United States, a signature piece of his administration's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_society">Great Society</a> legislation.<br />
<br />
From today's Blawg Review:<br />
<blockquote>
While many remember him for the disastrous campaign in Vietnam (that eventually drove him from office), LBJ's most lasting legacy was the Great Society. During his time in the White House, LBJ ushered in Medicare and Medicaid, food stamps, Head Start and federal funding for education. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
Ironic that just last week the US Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act which will provide insurance to those just above the poverty line through the expansion of Medicaid. There are critics of the new law who argue that the solution to the problem is to remove the words "over 65" from the legislation authorizing Medicare.</blockquote>

From his duck blind on the banks of the Thames, <a href="http://charonqc.wordpress.com/">Charon QC</a> watched as Her Majesty's barge and a flotilla of a thousand lesser vessels paraded before an adoring public out in the rain to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's <a href="http://www.picturesonwalls.com/" target="_blank">first sixty years</a>.<br />
<br />
Quite coincidentally with the Royal Jubilee celebrations, perhaps having something to do with the Olympics, our friend Charon QC launched a hundred links to British law blogs this past week in an unprecedented show of patriotism--UK Blawg Review #10 in four impressive blog posts!<br />

<a href="http://charonqc.wordpress.com/">Charon QC</a> is a master of the Blawg Review, this carnival of law blogs, having hosted a half-dozen or so previous presentations each of which is worth your attention and review. This is Blawg Review, elevated to an art form.<br />

<br />
We're not sure what recognition <a href="http://charonqc.wordpress.com/">Charon QC</a> might receive from Her Majesty for his contributions to law blogging with this UK Blawg Review #10, not to mention his daily blog posts that keep the world informed and entertained with insights into English law and British politics, but I wouldn't be surprised if someday this Dean of the British Blawgosphere were to be named Lord Charon.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.blawgreview.com/">Blawg Review</a> returns next week with its regular programming. <br />

<a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2012/05/21/blawg-review-322/">Blawg Review #322</a>, inspired by Skull & Bones, is hosted by the imaginative Kevin A. Thompson at Cyberlaw Central. Everyone knows about Kevin's blog; fewer know much at all about the secret society known as Skull & Bones. So, first, a little backgrounder.

<br /></div>
Kevin Thompson is well-established in the blawgsphere, having hosted Blawg Review six times previously. His first go at it was an inspriational <a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2006/01/30/blawg-review-42/">#42</a>, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Blawgosphere. His next, <a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2007/01/29/blawg-review-93/">#93</a>, was illuminating, indeed. Kevin's third, <a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2008/01/28/blawg-review-144/">#144</a>, continued a numerical theme based on the number of guests at Bilbo Baggins's birthday party. Kevin was recognized with the award for <a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2009/05/25/blawg-review-213/">Blawg Review of the Year 2009</a> for his tribute to Douglas Adams on Towel Day. Blawg Review <a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2010/03/22/blawg-review-256/">#256</a> was an epic presentation based on Frank Herbert's Dune. And last year, with <a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2011/01/24/blawg-review-295/">#295</a>, Kevin got his geek on to mark the 27th anniversary of the first sale of an Apple Macintosh.

It's no secret that Kevin is one of the best ever to host Blawg Review, and we're honored that he's back again this year with his seventh presentation, <a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2012/05/21/blawg-review-322/">Blawg Review #322</a>, the Skull & Bones edition!Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11518650.post-12986912148257161572012-05-14T14:00:00.000-04:002012-05-15T05:36:23.152-04:00Blawg Review on Facebook!If you know <a href="http://www.gulbransen.net/about/">all about Dave!</a> (that's Dave with an exclamation point) you know that he's been <a href="http://www.gulbransen.net/simpsonized/">Simpsonized</a>.

Dave! had aleady hosted four unique presentations of Blawg Review, a clever chart format showing his programming skills, a back-to-school special while he was a law student, a bar exam nail-biter when he knew the feeling, and a flashback to the early days of the worldwide web. Crazzzzy! Whenever we see an opportunity for a Blawg Review that would be enhanced by his mad geek skillz, we turn to Dave!
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Today, being the 28th birthday of Facebook co-founder and major shareholder Mark Zuckerberg, we asked Gulbransen if he could do a creative presentation for <a href="http://www.gulbransen.net/2012/05/blawg-review-321/">Blawg Review #321</a>. I wasn't worried that he'd come up with something special, even when I hadn't heard from him throughout the week. I knew Dave! likes to be left alone while he's working on Blawg Review. I figured Dave! was hard at it on Saturday night...but then I spotted him cruising up Yonge Street with the family. Bwaahaha!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

On this day, the <a href="http://www.louisianabicentennial2012.com/page.php?page=Louisiana-Statehood-History" target="_blank">bicentennial of statehood for Louisiana</a>, one might wonder why not enlist a Cajun blogger to host <a href="http://thetrialwarrior.com/2012/04/30/blawg-review-319-the-power-of-myth-and-the-myth-of-power/">Blawg Review #319</a>. Instead, we've got this Canajun trial warrior to remind us that this day historically marks the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisiana_Purchase" target="_blank">Louisiana Purchase</a>. How so? As most Americans know, the Louisiana Purchase encompassed all or parts of fifteen current states and small parts of what is now two provinces--few Canadians are aware of that!<br />
<br />
But what about the French and the British? Napoleon Bonaparte,
upon completion of the agreement stated, "This accession of territory
affirms forever the power of the United States, and I have given England
a maritime rival who sooner or later will humble her pride."<br />

All of which provides an entertaining and informative backdrop for some of the best legal blog posts of recent days, curated by one of the best of the blawgosphere. It's a longish Blawg Review, so take your time to enjoy the narrative and the links.<br />
<br />
In the end, this Blawg Review, the second by our friend Nino, brings to mind the famous words of French mathematician and philosopher Blaise Pascal who wrote, <i>"Je n’ai fait celle-ci plus longue que parce que je n’ai pas eu le loisir de la faire plus courte," </i>which is Cajun for, "I have made this longer than usual because I have not had time to make it shorter."

Dan Hull @Whataboutparis, inspired by Shakespeare, inadvertently channels Hunter S. Thompson in this week's <a href="http://www.whataboutclients.com/archives/2012/04/blawg_review_31_1.html">Blawg Review #318</a>.<br />
<blockquote>
My name is <a href="http://hullmcguire.com/lawyers/hull.htm" target="_blank">Dan Hull</a>. I practice law to (1) make money, (2) ensure that every day will be different than the one before, (3) to use everything I have practicing law so I can feel alive, (4) to serve sophisticated purchasers of legal services who "get it"--corporate clients with in-house counsel normally represented by much larger firms--and to put them first, and (5) treat my law practice and firm and as not just a shop but also as a laboratory for new ideas.
"Immersion" is what I seek in life and work. So that my life is full, and full of surprise. For me, this is exactly what William Shakespeare (or whoever authored the works bearing his name) and Hunter Thompson had in common. It is the gift, and courage, to get us to fully participate in the story along with its creator.</blockquote>
Buy the ticket. Take the ride. ~Hunter S. Thompson

That letter is reproduced in full in this week's Blawg Review, as Bennett says, it's worth it. In our view so are the many links to current law blog posts selected for this thoughtful presentation. The times have changed but the issues remain the same.

I do enjoy cruises. I'm not wealthy by any means, so I'd not have been on the upper deck with the rich and famous. I might have found myself among the middle class travelers, having somehow cleverly negotiated an upgrade from my steerage class ticket. I most certainly would not have had one of those exclusive deck chairs with my name on it!<br /><br />As it's my nature to help others before myself, I probably would have assisted some to board the few available lifeboats--women and children first, old man. Then I would have seized the opportunity to enjoy what little time left on this fabulous adventure that is life and grabbed myself one of those comfortable deck chairs reserved for the most well-to-do of the first class passengers who had paid extra to go in style.<br /><br />Reports of my demise might appear on the blogs a hundred years later, where it would be noted that I had last been seen arranging deck chairs on the Titanic, as the band played on.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11518650.post-53021896368063700202012-04-06T18:41:00.002-04:002012-04-06T18:53:03.347-04:00Blawg Review of the Year<ul><br /> <li><b><font color="#555555"></font></b><!-- --><a href="http://charonqc.wordpress.com/2011/01/02/blawg-review-292/">Blawg Review of the Year 2011</a></li><br /> <li><b><font color="#555555"></font></b><!-- --><a href="http://lawiscool.com/2010/08/23/blawg-review-278/">Blawg Review of the Year 2010</a></li><br /> <li><b><font color="#555555"></font></b><!-- --><a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2009/05/25/blawg-review-213/">Blawg Review of the Year 2009</a></li><br /> <li><b><font color="#555555"></font></b><!-- --><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2008/12/blawg-review-189.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2008</a></li><br /> <li><b><font color="#555555"></font></b><!-- --><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2007/12/blawg-review-137.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2007</a></li><br /> <li><b><font color="#555555"></font></b><!-- --><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2006/12/blawg-review-86.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2006</a></li><br /> <li><b><font color="#555555"></font></b><!-- --><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2005/12/blawg-review-35.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2005</a></li><br /></ul>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11518650.post-40058515376197540292012-04-02T10:44:00.006-04:002012-04-02T11:41:37.485-04:00You Can't Fool an Old Fool<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HYtr78WwWGc/T3nBdKGMwOI/AAAAAAAAAjg/rWhVdxbNVhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifg4/s1600/Eric-the-Jester-786404.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 154px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh68uff69Hi4bDm_jouWptaNKS-FpkpLOgg96n7TGuJTEQYMlhZXwtHrstJzj3CZu7PgDZ6ex1TqHKs6pZU3lcrof7G8VUeymqRlKNxvX2mynAGOtwHroGzpUcfq7PfdteGX_89/s200/Eric-the-Jester-786404.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5726821107849019618" /></a>Eric Turkewitz, New York Personal Injury Lawyer and perennial prankster, went to great lengths this year with another of his well-conceived hoaxes, a bit late for the annual <a href="http://www.afoolintheforest.com/2012/04/blawg-review-315-april-fools-prequel.html">April Fools Day Blawg Review</a> by George Wallace. Well, actually, Eric's intricately planned hoax was timed to trail the news of April Fools Day shenanigans, being released to the interwebs by Turk and a cadre of collaborators late on Sunday evening.<br /><br />It would have been real easy for this week's host of Blawg Review to get sucked in by this story echoing throughout the blawgosphere, and link any one of the clever posts by these hoaxters in today's Blawg Review #315. <br /><br />But this is <a href="http://www.declarationsandexclusions.com/">Declarations and Exclusions</a>, the serious law blog of George Wallace, an insurance lawyer who knows a scam when he sees one.

Wallace, a fool in the forest.<br /><br />Every year since the inception of Blawg Review, George has treated everyone interested in law to a carnival of law blogs in a serious manner on his insurance law blog, <a href="http://www.declarationsandexclusions.com/">Declarations and Exclusions</a>, together with a bonus edition on April Fools Day, on <a href="http://www.afoolintheforest.com">a fool in the forest</a>. No so much a prank, but a surprise, as it were. Alas, it was getting predictable. Year after year, without fail, George would "surprise" us with an April Fools Day edition. They were awsum, always, but to regular followers of Blawg Review seldom a surprise. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.afoolintheforest.com/2011/04/blawg-review-305.html">Last year</a>, on April Fools Day, his special presentation alluded to the imminent demise of Blawg Review.<br /><br /><blockquote>This April Fools' edition marks the tenth occasion on which it has been my pleasure to host an installment of Blawg Review.

<br />What's that? The American Bar Association is holding its annual meeting in Canada? Has Ontario joined the Union? Did the United States invade the Great White North and take it over without a shot being fired? Wait, wait...
<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">THIS JUST IN:</span><blockquote>CHICAGO, Aug. 2, 2011 – The American Bar Association and the Canadian Bar Association are preparing to sign a historic agreement that will lead to enhanced cooperation and information exchanges between the two organizations, their in-house counsel constituencies, and the U.S. and Canadian legal professions.
<br />
<br />A signing ceremony with the associations' presidents and witnessed by other bar leaders is scheduled for 4 p.m. Aug. 6, pending approval of the agreement by the ABA Board of Governors, at the Royal Conservatory, 273 Bloor St. West, Toronto. Following the ceremony will be the ABA Annual Meeting Opening Assembly, featuring remarks by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, Beverley McLachlin, and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer.
<br />
<br />“We have enjoyed a long and warm relationship with the Canadian Bar Association,” said ABA President Stephen N. Zack of Miami, Fla. “The signing of the agreement, on the occasion of the ABA's Annual Meeting in Toronto, will formalize our mutually beneficial cooperation that has been in place for the past 80 years.”</blockquote><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6AKa_x3I20N4G_eAA2-4FpW1Rfni3fOMlca-W9euW2o5O8_6ivE3IrYCQCQ-vFtjreSC8Xeeq2630uwCX9vfrbhpU_5vp2AiVGrF-OJ-pkYG3MDWlNA9-nvaiaRgc-Mw1Tx8-/s1600/RCMP.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 124px; height: 166px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6AKa_x3I20N4G_eAA2-4FpW1Rfni3fOMlca-W9euW2o5O8_6ivE3IrYCQCQ-vFtjreSC8Xeeq2630uwCX9vfrbhpU_5vp2AiVGrF-OJ-pkYG3MDWlNA9-nvaiaRgc-Mw1Tx8-/s400/RCMP.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5638502763094421666" /></a>

It was sold looseleaf for ten shillings, or bound for twelve. Robert Barker's father, Christopher, had, in 1589, been granted by Elizabeth I the title of royal Printer, with the perpetual Royal Privilege to print Bibles in England. Robert Barker invested very large sums in printing the new edition, and consequently ran into serious debt, such that he was compelled to sub-lease the privilege to two rival London printers, Bonham Norton and John Bill. It appears that it was initially intended that each printer would print a portion of the text, share printed sheets with the others, and split the proceeds. Bitter financial disputes broke out, as Barker accused Norton and Bill of concealing their profits, while Norton and Bill accused Barker of selling sheets properly due to them as partial Bibles for ready money. There followed decades of continual litigation, and consequent imprisonment for debt for members of the Barker and Norton printing dynasties, while each issued rival editions of the whole Bible. In 1629 the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge successfully managed to assert separate and prior royal licences for Bible printing, for their own university presses – and Cambridge University took the opportunity to print revised editions of the Authorized Version in 1629, and 1638. The editors of these editions included John Bois and John Ward from the original translators. This did not, however, impede the commercial rivalries of the London printers, especially as the Barker family refused to allow any other printers access to the authoritative manuscript of the Authorized Version.</blockquote>We had hoped to get <a href="http://charonqc.wordpress.com/about/">a legal scribe from England</a> to host this week's Blawg Review but, alas, the usual suspects were apparently preoccupied with the Royal Wedding.

The name is derived from the compositors' mistake: in the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:14) the word not in the sentence "Thou shalt not commit adultery" was omitted. This blunder was spread in a number of copies. About a year later, the publishers of the Wicked Bible were fined £300 (roughly equivalent to 33,800 pounds today) and were deprived of their printer's license.[citation needed] The fact that this edition of the Bible contained such a flagrant mistake outraged Charles I of England and George Abbot, the Archbishop of Canterbury, who said then:<br /><blockquote>I knew the tyme when great care was had about printing, the Bibles especially, good compositors and the best correctors were gotten being grave and learned men, the paper and the letter rare, and faire every way of the beste, but now the paper is nought, the composers boyes, and the correctors unlearned.</blockquote></blockquote>Talk about <span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.whataboutclients.com/archives/2011/05/redux_scott_gre.html">Slackoisie!</a></span><br /><br />19 Neither shalt thou steal.<br /><br />If <a href="http://blog.ericgoldman.org/archives/2011/04/republishing_en.htm">copying an entire newspaper story is fair use</a>, is it a sin to steal large segments of copy from Wikipedia? I didn't think so.<blockquote>In most of the world the Authorized Version has passed out of copyright and is freely reproduced. This is not the case in the United Kingdom where the rights to the Authorized Version are held by the British Crown under perpetual Crown copyright. Publishers are licensed to reproduce the Authorized Version under letters patent. In England, Wales and Northern Ireland the letters patent are held by the Queen's Printer, and in Scotland by the Scottish Bible Board. The office of Queen's Printer has been associated with the right to reproduce the Bible for centuries, the earliest known reference coming in 1577. In the 18th century all surviving interests in the monopoly were bought out by John Baskett. The Baskett rights descended through a number of printers and, in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, the Queen's Printer is now Cambridge University Press, who inherited the right when they took over the firm of Eyre & Spottiswoode in 1990.</blockquote>20 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.<br /><br />"You might think that this notion, the whole <a href="http://blog.simplejustice.us/2011/04/30/to-tell-the-truth.aspx">tell the truth</a> to the judge thing, was pretty well settled.

Six years later, a growing number of lawyers new to blogging are asking, "What is Blawg Review?<blockquote>Blawg Review is the blog carnival for everyone interested in law. A peer-reviewed blog carnival, the host of each Blawg Review decides which of the submissions and recommended posts are suitable for inclusion in the presentation. And the host is encouraged to source another dozen or so interesting posts to fit with any special theme of that issue of Blawg Review. The host's personal selections usually include several that reflect the character and subject interests of the host blawg, recognizing that the regular readership of the blog should find some of the usual content, and new readers of the blog via Blawg Review ought to get some sense of the unique perspective and subject specialties of the host. Thanks to all the law bloggers who collaborate to make Blawg Review one of the very best blog carnivals of any genre.<br /><br />Colin Samuels, Blawg Review Sherpa Emeritus, describes it best. "Where once we were isolated legal students, practitioners, and academics who could share our thoughts only with those in proximity, blogging and social media have turned us all into a kind of "other memory" for one another. The knowledge, experience, and insight we are able to access here, within our ever-expanding networks of colleagues and friends, colleagues-of-colleagues, friends-of-friends, is nothing short of amazing. By participating, we are able to give and receive and grow beyond ourselves while allowing others to grow as well. Thanks to our tools, these memories need not fade or become inaccessible, but we should always keep in mind that tools do not create — we do."</blockquote>On this sixth anniversary of Blawg Review, we revisited some of the most creative presentations of this carnival of law blogs. Each year for the past six years we've recognized the best of the best with the honor of Blawg Review of the Year.<blockquote><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2005/12/blawg-review-35.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2005</a><br /><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2006/12/blawg-review-86.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2006</a><br /><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2007/12/blawg-review-137.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2007</a><br /><a href="http://infamyorpraise.blogspot.com/2008/12/blawg-review-189.html">Blawg Review of the Year 2008</a><br /><a href="http://www.cyberlawcentral.com/2009/05/25/blawg-review-213/">Blawg Review of the Year 2009</a><br /><a href="http://lawiscool.com/2010/08/23/blawg-review-278/">Blawg Review of the Year 2010</a></blockquote>These award-winning presentations show an appreciation of literature and art, a strong sense of community, passion for a cause, and a good sense of humor. These are common themes in the best of Blawg Review and, while only one presentation each year receives the award for Blawg Review of the Year, there are many more that deserve another look.<br /><br
