Today's Webtip: Pussy Riot Process

Three young women are looking at seven years in jail for their punk prayer.

The process against three members of Pussy Riot has begun today. They staged an anti-Putin protest in a cathedral in Moscow. You might have seen it already.

That performance left three women in prison and seven on the run. It has sparked a huge debate both in and outside of Russia, and it could lead to seven years in jail for the women on trial.

The process is being streamed live for those of you who can understand Russian, but the rest of us can always check out Nerdcore for a pretty useful collection of links to other articles and interviews that should at least provide some perspective on what's going on.
