The Recent Supreme Court Decision

Recently the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the Guantanamo Bay detainees do indeed have the right of habeas corpus (also called The Great Writ (where a "writ" is a legal action)).  This means they have the right to challenge their detention in court.

So hurray for that!

And there is a nice analysis of the Supreme Court's opinion in Dan AdNauseum's Insane Journal (which by the way has an RSS feed called danadnausemij that can be friended).

Recommendations for scale

Okay, this is kind of personal but...

I'm thinking that I could really stand to lose some weight.  However my scale is an old analog model and it doesn't work reliably.  Depending where I stand on the platform I can "gain" or "loose" about six pounds--and sometimes the dial sticks altogether  and registers me as 20-40 pounds lighter than usual.

Does anybody have any recommendations for a good, sturdy, inexpensive scale, accurate to about a pound?  (or maybe I should say precise to about a pound--I don't care if it registers my exact weight as long as it registers my weight consistently, and registers changes in my weight accurately).

Recommendations gratefully received.
