  A new law, established June 15, in An Nasiriya allows each adult male in a
  household to possess one firearm, not to exceed the size on an AK-47, as long as
  the weapon is registered with the police department. Anything larger is
  outlawed, and any weapon not registered with the police can be confiscated.

• 04.03a Byron: “Why then publish?” I had this up on my office wall
  for a while. I don’t agree entirely with it– publishing can aid the public
  good too, after all– but I like the language and the idea is good as far as it
  goes.From Canto XIV of Don Juan:

  
  But `Why then publish?’ There are no rewards
  
  Of fame or profit when the world grows weary.
  
  I ask in turn why do you play at cards?
  
  Why drink? Why read? To make some hour less dreary.
  
  It occupies me to turn back regards
  
  On what I've seen or pondered, sad or cheery,
  
  And what I write I cast upon the stream
  
  To swim or sink.
  
  I have had at least my dream.
