   Ann Winterton's Medical Treatment (Prevention of Euthanasia) bill was again on the agenda last Friday in the British House of Commons, traditionally the day for private members' bills.

9. Art Rubber Stamp -- Stamp Art Gallery
   The German Dadaist Kurt Schwitters, an early practitioner of the collage medium, was perhaps the first Modernist artist to incorporate rubber stamp impressions in his work. The Stamp Art Gallery gathered his impressions from various sources for the exhibition Kurt Schwitters: Stamp Drawings 1918-1923. The catalog reproduces these works along with a translation by Charlotte Eisner of various accounts (previously available only in German) describing Schwitter's stamp activity. Geoffrey Cook ... contributes an essay on the subject. A nice example of the Stamp Art Gallery's attempt to bring the history of rubber stamp art into focus.
10. Presidential Records Act -- Executive Order
    The Presidential Records Act makes no attempt to expand or contract claims of executive privilege. Instead, it recognizes in subsection 2204(c)(2), and elsewhere, that Presidents will assert executive privilege with regard to some documents that are otherwise subject to release under the PRA. That subsection provides that "[n]othing in [the PRA] shall be construed to confirm, limit, or expand any constitutionally-based privilege which may be available to an incumbent or former President."
