Default Can a Tiger change his stripes?

Of course!

US Justice Department removes stars and stripes from web site and adopts a less "Americanized" format.

what else have they thrown in?

a new banner quote

"The common law is the will of mankind, issuing from the life of the people."
- C. Wilfred Jenks

for the unknowing, C. Wilfred Jenks was a leading proponent of the "international law" movement, which had as its goal to impose a global common law back in the 1930s.
