I put Middle Earth Journal in hiatus in May of 2008 and moved to Newshoggers.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.

Justice for an American Aristocrat

I normally don't post on things like this but if George W Bush had run into a prosecutor and a judge that weren't intimidated by the American Aristocracy life in this United States might be a lot better today.
Paris Ordered to Serve 45 Days in Jail
A Los Angeles County Superior Court judge has sentenced Paris Hilton to 45 days in L.A. County jail for violating her probation in a reckless driving case. Judge Michael T. Sauer handed down the harsh sentence, telling Paris she will not be allowed work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or electronic monitoring in lieu of jail. She must do the time!
Well it could have been worse, if she had lived in 18th century France the Jacobins would have cut off her head.

Update
The LA Times has more:
Her mother, Kathy, told the prosecutor after the judge's decision: "You're pathetic."
My inner Jacobin says off with her head to jail for her too.
