In a week, or month, that the corporate media has saturated with jeering, screaming and outrage, here are a few newsworthy items that you may have (understandably) missed:

DemUnderground has photos of Justice Sotomayor being sworn in by Chief Justice Roberts, with her mom and brother accompanying.

You ever/never head of Remote Area Medical? Me, neither ... not till i learned about RAM-USA's FREE medical services -- including root canals (!), blood pressure checks, and cataract surgery (!!) in the former home of the LA Lakers, the Inglewood Forum from August 11-18.
And, a NYTimes article about the overwhelming turnout. Patience and demand that far exceeds the supply!

If you don't know The Black Swan author, Nassim Taleb -- here's an 11:00 minute CNBC's interview is a great start.

And, from history: Ferdinand Pecora. of the Pecora Commission.
And calls for the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, a modern-day Financial Truth Commission.
