A colleague recently asked me about whether government should be capitalized for an article targeted to a legally literate audience in a sentence like this: “The Government argued that failure to protect wolves would negatively affect economic
activity.” We often see Government and similar terms capitalized in articles describing litigation. But why? Is it correct usage?

Base your Outlook rules on message headers for fewer rules
I use a lot of rules in Outlook to categorize messages I receive. Some rules are based on the sender's address, others based on words in the sender description, and others based on words in the subject. When I want messages based on all three to be marked the same category, I’ve been using three different rules. But I just discovered that “with specific words in the message header” is a broader category that includes a whole lot of information, including all those criteria I was using to organize mail. I was looking for a way to include messages sent “on behalf of” someone, mainly to catch messages sent on behalf of the same entity but using a different mass-mail e-mail address with each message.
