Hope for the Future

I had the privilege of writing a profile of UC Berkeley law student Samika Boyd for the current issue of Boalt Hall Transcript, the alumni magazine of Berkeley Law. She's a remarkable woman; I hope you like the article. (There's a lot more to her story that was left out due to space considerations.)

I have several other pieces in the magazine: an article on global warming and the law of the sea in the arctic region; piece on hedge fund regulation; and a short profile of Jess Bravin, the Wall Street Journal's Supreme Court Correspondent. To read them you have to download a PDF of the entire Spring 2009 issue of Boalt Hall Transcript.

Writeup on Berkeley FTC Hearings

I recently completed my first assignment for the Berkeley Law / Boalt Hall website: a report on FTC hearings held in Berkeley on the patent system and the intellectual property marketplace. A few other pieces are in the works.

SF Chronicle's Constitution Day Quiz

I'm proud to announce that I got 8 1/2 out of 10 on the Constitution Day Quiz in today's San Francisco Chronicle.

I got questions 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 correct. On question 4, I narrowed it down to two possible answers, one of which was correct. In a day or two, if I remember, I'll post my answers on questions 3 and 4.

How did you do?

Catching Up on Clips

The new issue of Boalt Hall Transcript (the UC Berkeley law school alumni magazine) is out, and I realize that I hadn't yet linked to articles from the last issue, published in Spring 2007. I had two:

Does Money Talk? discusses the research of Professor Eric Talley, who's done work linking creative executive compensation to securities fraud.

Patent Trolls Take Their Toll talks about patent reform with Professor Pamela Samuelson.

Please check them out, and share your comments. For the current issue of Transcript (which I'll link to when it's live online) I profiled Howard Chao, a prominent Silicon Valley attorney who does private equity work in China.
