New magistrate short list in WPB

The cut has been made and there are 10 finalists for two spots. It's very hush-hush though, and I only have a partial list. Come on tipsters, give me more. Here's what I have so far:

Carolyn Bell (AUSA)
Dave Brannon (AFPD)
Kim Dunn-Abel (AUSA)
Bill Matthewman
Jeremy Slusher
Bob Waters (AUSA)
Wendy Zoberman

There are a bunch of magistrate positions that are open in the District, so the Chief entered an intersting order precluding applicants from lobbying District Judges. Good move.

Judge Jordan's application

Judge Jordan's nomination is, by all accounts, moving quickly towards confirmation. Here is his Senate questionnaire (which is unbelievably onerous and long):

If you aren't interested in that sort of thing, here is the trailer for the new Hunger Games movie coming out in the spring. Go Katniss!

Have a nice weekend

Nothing really going on today in Miami, so I apologize for the slow blogging...

Anyway, here are some pictures I snapped on the way to lunch today in downtown:
