...there been an NBA team that shooting guard Quentin Richardson hasn't been traded to this summer? On June 25, the New York Knicks dealt Richardson, who averaged 10 points per game last season, to the Memphis Grizzlies for center Darko Milicic. About three weeks later, Memphis shipped the nine-year veteran to the Los Angeles Clippers for high-scoring forward - and perennial troublemaker - Zach Randolph. Three days after that, the Clips moved Richardson to the Minnesota Timberwolves for three nondescript bench warmers.

...Funny People's subpar returns dealt another body blow to its distributor, Universal Pictures. Big releases like Land of the Lost, Brüno, Duplicity and State of Play have all underperformed this year. Public Enemies has done O.K., but with its $100 million budget, the Johnny Depp crime melodrama hasn't come close to making back its costs after five weeks in North American theaters, and it's all but comatose abroad. The studio's one ginormous 2009 hit is Fast & Furious, which has earned nearly $350 million worldwide on an $85 million budget. Except for the Vin Diesel...
...also entrust to them the protection of Harvard students. These are the police who were called in on May 18 to deal with the shooting of Justin Cosby, 21, inside one of the Harvard dorms by suspects who, like him, were African Americans. Has any case ever been dealt with more discreetly—likely at least in part because it involved African Americans? Should we not be encouraging all students to live within the law and to consider ourselves on the side of the law unless clearly and manifestly demonstrated otherwise? Is it not for faculty...
