* The Florida Space Coast School of Law? This totally necessary school has a name that no one will ever be able to make fun of. Please let there be an equally necessary space law concentration. [Daytona Times]

* “Being rude is not illegal,” but thanks to The Dirty, it might have some damning consequences for CDA § 230. Maybe it's a good thing the jurors in this sexy teacher's defamation case were deadlocked last night. [KY Post]

* Julie Taymor settled her suit against the producers of Broadway's musical adaptation of Spider-Man. It turns out all the judge had to do was schedule a trial date to get the parties to turn off the dark litigation. [Bloomberg]

* Here's an example of legal Kaepernicking: the NFL got to flex its muscles when it strong-armed a football fan into abandoning his trademarks on "Harbowl" and "Harbaugh Bowl" in anticipation of the Super Bowl. [ESPN]
