For those who want a way out of jury duty, this seems promising:
Of course, I don't necessarily want out of jury duty. And it would be nice to use jury nullification, if it is actually possible) against laws which are meant to persecute people of good conscience (e.g. cases in which homosexualists go after Christians for refusing to go along with "gay marriage" if such ever end up before a jury). I suspect that this is a pipe dream, though, since convincing the rest of the jurymen to do the right thing in these cases would be a bit difficult. Not to mention avoiding perjuring oneself to get on said jury to begin with.
We may be pessimists, but we are prepared to give an account of our hope. We may be skeptics, but we are ever faithful. We may look down with sorrow on the human condition--but this sorrow begets charity. We are heralds of the dusk, but like watchmen we await the new dawn.
Contra Mozilla

Firefox users we wanted to take this space to let you know what Mozilla, the company that makes Firefox has been doing, and it's not good. Mozilla recently forced its CEO to resign because he had, 6 years ago, donated $1,000 to a pro-family political group. Apparently Mozilla is intolerant of anyone that disagrees with their Liberal/progressive view of politics. To read more please visit WhyFirefoxIsBlocked.com. We aren't blocking Firefox, but we feel it is important to let you know what's going on. For those who are curious, the reason why we are not blocking firefox is that the script to do so also blocks a variety of firefox alternatives, such as IceDragon and others which are similar to firefox and based on the same open-source code. We do think it is important to push back on this issue: for starters, you can leave firefox a comment here. You can also switch to another browser: here are six more free browsers (besides IceDragon) which are supposed to be similar to FireFox (because they are based on the same open-source code) but which are not otherwise affiliated with Mozilla.
