Best of the 'blogs, week of 31 October - 6 November

A bit of a slow week, or at least one in which very little stood out. There have been quite a few quality posts this weekend, but they miss the Friday cutoff.

In Arizona:

• Nick R. Martin reports in-depth on the Freedom Communications bankruptcy,
  
• CLS has a reflection on memory and a report of an honor killing in Arizona
  

Farther afield:

• Jacob Sullum directs us to a worrying instance of impunity.
  
• and Kenneth Anderson has insight on the connection between intents and outcomes in California and Texas.
