		<title>What I (Didn’t) Learn in Law School!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Nisha Rajoo

		<title>On SOPA: Will Online Pirates Have to Walk The Plank?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Momoko Kanda
If United States’ government has anything to say about it, they certainly will. The media has been abuzz about the recent bills being debated in the United States House and Senate: the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), and the Protect IP Act (PIPA) respectively.

The “Guantanamo Bay” file leak in April, revealing that of the 212 Afghans at the base, “almost half were &#8230; entirely innocent or transferred to Guantanamo with no reason for doing so on file”[1] demolished ex-Secretary of Defence Donald Rumsfeld’s claim that those detained in Cuba were “the worst of the worst”.

		<title>Love in the Time of Pre-nuptial Agreements</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Alicea Tan
Love is amorphous and indeterminate. But this has not stopped many couples contemplating marriage from putting down their love in exact terms in a pre-nuptial agreement. A pre-nuptial agreement is a contract entered into before marriage and can govern a wide range of aspects within married life. A couple can dictate where they should live, when they should have sex, when they should conceive and how many children they are to have. Couples may also include “force-majeure” clauses dictating how the matrimonial assets should be divided, how much ...]]></description>
