From the website:
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will be carried out with full transparency and accountability — and Recovery.gov is the centerpiece of that effort. In a short video, President Obama describes the site and talks about how you’ll be able to track the Recovery Act’s progress every step of the way.

From Dean Closius:
I am pleased to announce that long time Maryland Attorney General (and UB grad) Joseph Curran has agreed to do host a Lunchtime Law & Public Policy discussion series at the School of Law. The first one is tomorrow, Feb 11, at noon in Room 210. Prof Curran will be joined by Ellen Cooper, principal counsel for the antitrust division of the AG’s office, and William Gruhn, principal counsel of the state’s Consumer Protection Division. The topic will be Consumer Protection and the Antitrust. Prof Curran has remarkable insights into issues of stare regulation and litigation and his guest speakers are leaders in the state’s legal divisions. I’m sure you will find the talk valuable. As usual, pizza is available and pizza distribution will begin at 11:45.
