It appears people who want to hang director Roman Polanski over an ancient case will never get their wish, as Swiss authorities have refused to extradite him to the United States and he is now free from house arrest.
Despite the view of some self-righteous people out there, when it was clear there was judicial misconduct in this case and even the victim of Polanski's actions wanted the matter dropped, the thing was dead in the water.
The tabloids will have to settle on Al Gore or somebody else instead.

The excellent Broad Report has a list of people who are enrolled in this year's Broad Superintendent Academy, and many if not all on the list haven't a fucking clue about education, regardless of whether they work in public schools.
One person on the list is from my (soon-to-be former) area of Reno, Nevada.
