HOME SWEET HOME
It's an organization established to govern a private community and promote neighborhood safety and unity. Typically, Homeowner's Associations own and manage common property for owners of private houses or condominium units. What happens when rules that exist for the general good of the entire community conflict with the desire of an individual owner? Or guarenteed repairs and maintainence aren't getting done? Are these organizations overly restrictive? Let's talk about it on today's HearSay. Guests: Liz Pulliam Weston, personal finance columnist for MSN Money; Michael Inman and Jeanne Lauer, attorneys with the law firm Inman & Strickler.

THE SUPREMES' GREATEST HITS
Can the government seize your house in order to build a shopping mall? Can it determine what you can do to your own body? Why are you allowed to copy songs on a CD, but not music files from the Internet? Cathy talks with Michael Trachtman, author of the new book, "The Supremes' Greatest Hits." It focuses on some of the most significant cases ever heard by the Supreme Court; cases that continue to have a profound impact on our society and its values.
