MySpace Update & Measuring Calories

I don't have documents or a link for it (yet), but early word is that the MySpace defense at the motion-to-dismiss stage is focusing, unsurprisingly, on duty to protect against third-party criminal acts and on the Communication Decency Act's safe harbor provisions.  (See here, here, here, here, here, and here for earlier posts; Walter Olson provides his take for the Times of London.)

On an entirely different topic, and only marginally related to anything except, I suppose, obesity lawsuits, the SciAm blog has a neat description of how food manufacturers measure calories.
