    A Georgia woman spent more than three months in jail on drug charges after sheriff’s deputies mistook congealed cotton candy they found in a car she was riding in for methamphetamine. A state crime lab eventually showed that they were wrong. Now, she’s suing.

The deputies found a blue, crystal-like substance in a bag on a floorboard in the car and evaluated it using a roadside test kit,...

    Run a Google search for the combination of Rorschach and Barack Obama. You’ll get about 49,000 hits. I’ve read a fraction of those, beginning in 2007 and including the June 2008 one when Obama called himself a Rorchach. It is curious that apparently none of these reporters and pundits bothered to find out what that psychiatric test was for, how it worked, and what it meant. People assume that a Rorschach indicates a person or event that can mean different things to different people. That is certainly true of Barack Obama as a candidate. It is also true of his...

It's in the May 13 issue.
