First Movie Reviews: The Dark Knight
Picture: The Dark Knight movie posters located on Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue promotes the late Heath Ledger in his last complete film role Los Angeles,...
The London Daily Mirror claimed today (Tuesday) that it was publishing the first major newspaper review of the upcoming Batman movie, The Dark Night . It's a rave. Critic David Edwards remarks that Heath Ledger is "a dead cert" to win the Oscar for his portrayal of The Joker. Edwards says that the late actor "is the brilliant heart of a superhero movie that's like nothing you've ever seen before. ... the finest superhero movie in years." In the U.S., Time Inc.'s Entertainment Weekly is out with a review by Owen Gleiberman that also extols Ledger's performance. "In this, the last performance he completed before his death, Ledger had a maniacal gusto inspired enough to suggest that he might have lived to be as audacious an actor as Marlon Brando, and maybe as great," he writers. Likewise Richard Corliss in Time magazine calls Ledger's performance "magnificent." His Joker, says Corliss, "is simply one of the most twisted and mesmerizing creeps in movie history." In his review for the Associated Press, Christy Lemire writes that The Dark Night is "an epic that will leave you staggering from the theater, stunned by its scope and complexity." And Peter Travers concludes in Rolling Stone : "The haunting and visionary Dark Knight soars on the wings of untamed imagination."

Pharrell Williams - Frontin' (Disclosure Re-Work)
Artist: Pharrell Williams
Featuring: Jay Z, Disclosure
Producer: Disclosure
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 8 votes )
In 2003, Pharrell Williams took his first step into the spotlight with Frontin', a debut single which saw him joining forces with rap mogul Jay-Z. At the time, Williams insisted the Grammy-winning jam was a one-off rather than the beginning of a solo career but, well, we all know how that turned out. Today Disclosure, the UK-based garage/electro duo behind Latch, liberated their remix of the now-classic cut, which they declared to be "one of [their] favourite songs ever." In place of the original's laid-back production, Guy and Howard Lawrence cook up an high-energy synth groove fueled by pounding four-on-the-floor percussion. Disclosure's take on Frontin' isn't attached to a larger project, but we'll keep you posted on the twosome's plans as further emerge.

"The Bill is Signed" – Marriage Equality in Maryland
March 1, 2012 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Kevin Nix, Former HRC Campaign Media Director
Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley has just signed a historic bill extending marriage rights to gay and lesbian couples. HRC is proud to have been a founding member of the coalition to pass the marriage bill, and its work on the ground with state partners.
HRC committed extensive resources to the legislative effort in the Free State, including helping to create Marylanders for Marriage Equality, the broad-based coalition made up of labor, faith, civil liberties, and LGBT organizations. HRC provided the campaign's senior staff and spearheaded the field, communications, and faith components of the coalition effort. Learn more about HRC's engagement in the effort to get the bill passed.
Pending a likely referendum process, Maryland now joins six other states – Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, and Vermont – plus the District of Columbia in recognizing marriage for gay and lesbian couples under the law. Additionally, Washington state passed marriage equality earlier this year and that bill is expected to be on the ballot in November as well. 8 states—California, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon and Rhode Island—provide same-sex couples with access to the state level benefits and responsibilities of marriage, through either civil unions or domestic partnerships.
A January poll by the Washington Post showed 50 percent of Marylanders support gay and lesbian couples getting married.
Today's legislative win for marriage equality comes at a historic moment. In the past few weeks, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled California's discriminatory Proposition 8 to be unconstitutional; Governor Christine Gregoire signed marriage equality into law in Washington State; and a marriage bill passed the New Jersey legislature. Six states and the District of Columbia recognize marriage equality, with Washington State's law set to go into effect in three months.

I don't agree. MacKinnon has skating on Tavares but that's about it. Tavares has stronger hockey IQ, he's a better playmaker, better "scoring sense", better defensively, better hands. Tavares rarely makes a mistake and he carries the puck near perfectly, you'll almost never see him turn it over by bobbling the puck. MacKinnon seems guilty of that at least a few times every I watch him.
Hall is a far better comparison, they play a similar game, they're both physical wingers, they have similar hockey IQ (Which is above-average, but not great) and they dominate through athelticism and explosiveness.

AP PHOTOS: Survivors found in Bangladesh collapseApril 27, 2013 @ 11:23 am
(AP) - Working round-the-clock, rescuers have pulled more than two dozen survivors from the rubble of a Bangladesh garment factory that collapsed 4 days ago, killing some 350 people.
From within the wreckage, "We are still getting response from survivors though they are becoming weaker slowly," said Brig. Gen. Ali Ahmed Khan, the head of the fire services.
"The building is very vulnerable. Any time the floors could collapse. We are performing an impossible task, but we are glad that we are able to rescue so many survivors," he said.
The disaster is the worst ever for the country's booming and powerful garment industry, surpassing a fire five months ago that killed 112 and brought widespread pledges to improve worker-safety standards.
Here are some images from the recovery scene.

Un dernier mot,
It is with mixed emotions that I have made the decision not to renew our lease for another term. Cigale Cafe will be giving way to a new establishment. We will be vacating our space at the end of October.
Let me start by thanking all of you who have patronized the restaurant,
giving us a chance to provide you with an enjoyable experience. Cigale
Cafe was a success; it has brought us many friends, and forever lasting
memories. I am especially grateful for all of the return customers we are
fortunate to have had, and the loyalty all of you have shown.
Even though our business has grown steadily each year since we
opened, I find that the operation of this type of restaurant has become
unsatisfying. Don't get me wrong, I love what I do, I was able to maintain
the a style of cuisine I believe in, I don't mind the long hours, and I am
very pleased with the reputation we have earned serving this community.
Unfortunately, the difficulty of finding committed employees (thank you
Miguel for being the only one left from the opening day staff), dealing
with the constantly increasing cost of quality products, of insurance
premiums, of energy costs, of rental space, and of employee liability has
risen to an alarming level. Adding on a social media boom that needs
a full time person to master and manage, at time enticing unrealistic
customers expectations, the "NEW" overall landscape of the restaurant
industry has dimmed down the passion, interest, and motivation I once
had to own and operate a full service establishment.
It is a timely, healthy, and welcome step down for me, and I am excited at
the prospect of what the future holds.
I want to take this opportunity to thank the individuals without whom this
enterprise would have not been possible.
I begin with two long time friends, whom have been religiously
frequenting my various restaurants since 1996, but more importantly
whom have provided me, and especially my son Matthew, with support,
generosity, and guidance over the years. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Miller
for trusting me as a person, my abilities as a chef and as a restaurant
owner, and for your understanding and patience.
I conclude with Dona, I will never be able to thank her enough for the
instrumental role she played in this venture over the past 5 years. From
the countless hours she has invested in starting this project, helping
designing and furnishing the interior, creating the logo, various menus,
our web site, to the time spent constantly researching new trends
and creating new promotions. I am amazed at the commitment she
demonstrated to the operation of Cigale. Her presence at the restaurant
was a true lifeline for me, being a gracious talented host, always ready
to offer a helping hand whenever needed, as well as my link to "the
front of the house". She was able to incredibly juggle her new unknown
tasks while sustaining her own extremely demanding, successful career.
As if that wasn't enough, I have benefited the most from her generosity,
which indispensably enabled Cigale to overcome the many unexpected
hardships of the last five years. Merci Dona.

WWOZ brings together our local, national and international supporters into a distinctive community that celebrates and strengthens the music, musicians, culture and culture bearers of New Orleans.
Clarinet and sax master Victor Goines with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra will visit Jelly Roll Justice this Thursday on Jazz from the French Market around 5 p.m.
This week's show is about the way traditions--both musical and otherwise--find new hands to carry them on and new places for them to take root. Over the course of sixty minutes, we explore how our world is growing creatively closer as we dive into the kinds of "musical cross pollination" that has long found a home in New Orleans.
This weekend the Foburg takes off in the wake of Mardi Gras Madness. Foburg is March 11-13 featuring local young bands, and some from out of town. Sort of along the lines of South/Southwest.
Young New Orleans singer songwriter Jason Frilot will come in to talk about his new CD, and Foburg Fest.
This may be a SMALL thing, but seem to have a life of its' own. One of the twenty-nine songs of Robert Johnson is "Crossroad". By the passage of time and ear-to-mouth transfer of the title it has become crossroads by the addition of the s on the end. Let's set the record straight.
Tune in tonight at midnight for a special program devoted to the saxophone quartet. This ensemble usually consists of one B♭ soprano, one E♭ alto, one B♭ tenor and one E♭ baritone. Featured artists will include the Adelphi, Stockholm, Windmill, Eugene Rousseau, Netherlands, Rova (pictured), Kyiv, 29th Street, Tetraphonics, Delta, Rascher, and World saxophone quartets.
The fun is not over folks! Now that Carnival is behind us, we're kicking into full gear with New Orleans' intense springtime festival season. This week's show previews the 2011 French Quarter Festival and a handful of the musicians playing at some of the 18 stages over the course of four days.
Courtesy of Chef Paul Prudhomme, here is one of the dishes that put Louisiana, Creole and Cajun cooking on the map back at the 1984 Worlds Fair in New Orleans. Featured in an article on the popularity and history of Louisiana foodways, this dish is a standard in the repetoire that's worth learning to do right.
Tune in this Wednesday from 12 noon to 1pm for some live music and interviews, featuring Luke Winslow-King.

Just a quick post to say Happy Xmas and a Happy New Year from the tropical island paradise of Koh Chang in the Gulf of Thailand.
Things just don't get better than this and I feel I am the luckiest man alive to be a able to be here. There are 7 other overland motorcylists here (Cliff & Jenny Batley, Ralph & Caroline, Peter & Carol and Kate), so we'll be having a 'small' celebration before hitting the surf. It's just a shame that the accomodation on the island is so full that we're getting booted out of our beach huts on Xmas day. Hammock on the beach anybody? And maybe then we'll find time to investigate the rather loud rattle that's emanating from the right hand cylinder head....
Anyway, I'd like to say a massive thankyou to everybody who has taken the time read the WebLog and to follow our exploits. It is so heartening and encouraging to read everybody's comments and receive emails from around the world.
And trust me, in the next update you'll see just how unexpected events can turn things inside out. "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans".
All the best for 2003 and Happy Xmas!Posted by Sean Kelly at December 23, 2002 02:18 PM GMT
Merry Christmas from all on the S21 project at Taylor Hobson.
Dave Bell says that it is almost as good here - but then he's a sad git anyway ( or so he claims)!
Good luck on Xmas day - if you're sleeping on the beach, don't get the crabs!
Chris et all.Posted by: Chris Whitehurst on December 24, 2002 11:36 AM GMT
Hi Sean,
Just got a note from your Dad and have logged onto your website for the first time. What you're doing is fantastic and the website is amazing. (Makes our travels seem quite tame!) So, anyway, if you guys are on your way down under you absolutely have to pop by and see your cousin, Sean! You probably aren't aware that I'm living here with my boyfriend Jamie. After travelling around Oz for 5 months, we arrived in Sydney got 'tempory jobs' and in September we decided to stay. We've now got our visas, still got our jobs and a place to stay. Naturally we're having a great time and absolutely love Australia. The only problem is that it's been a long time since we've seen family, although my mum & Richard (stepdad) are arriving on Friday for 3 weeks holiday. It'll be great to see them - it's been 18 months since we left home.
Anyway, hope you had a lovely Christmas and found somewhere to stay. I'll keep my eye on the site and send you details of where we live when you get closer.
Take care, happy travels and a Happy New Year,
Love Alison xxxxxPosted by: Alison Kelly on December 25, 2002 11:13 PM GMT
Just stopped at the Mozzers, and they showed me your progress. Sounds like your having fun, even the hammock on the beach sounds good! All the best for Xmas & the new year

Dear Sean

I think it's fantasic what you're doing.
Lots of love

Happy New Year!
Christmas in Paradise Island mmmmmmm sounds lovely.....you lucky beggar! Where are the photos?
Back to work today, boooooo! Everything the same, Simon has been busy tidying the place up (or so he says)!!!!
Ioannis has gone now, which is a real bummer, but we are in contact everyday at least for now, who knows how it will be when he goes in. So I am feeling sorry for myself and reading your travel log gives me the itchy feet syndrome again.....oooops!
Anyway, keep the news and photos coming they really are great. Keep having a fantastic time (I'm green with envy) Call us when you can. Take care and all the best,

Happy New Year Chaps
It sounds as if your having a ball over there in the tropics, I bet your missing the cloudy skys of Liverpool though?
Hope that rattles not too serious and if it is, well I'm sure you'll fix it anyway. Take it steady and we'll see you when you get back.
Hi Sean
Happy New Year - it's over and done with now and so quick (sure there's a joke there somewhere). Am really jealous of your weather - thinking of booking a trip to a hot and exotic place for next Christmas - are they doing flights to Mars yet?? The YMCA wasn't the same without you on New Years eve!! Keep us posted.
Byee Liam
Belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Ireland Sean and Co. Enjoying your page looks as though your having a terrific time..hope the bike holds out and the rattle in the right cylinder turns out to be no more than some misplaced loose change.. with all the time spent in the saddle you must be walking funny by now, anyway good luck for the rest of the trip..looking forward to updates..Bye.....Gerard (uncle!)Posted by: Gerard Kelly on January 3, 2003 02:42 PM GMT

Added Nov 12, 2012
by rshelly13
Portland, Maine,...
I recently finished my Dirndl that I created for halloween. I used Burdastyle's 117 Dirndl pattern. I altered it a bit: added an extra panel in the middle and added a front tie, added piping, and shortened both the skirt and the apron. The undershirt was from a few white dress that I had found in a clothing swap party. I recut the neckline and added white piping.
I actually started this project with a muslin that I had fitted on a dress form that I had created of my own form. I have forward sloping shoulders and shoulder blades that protrude. This makes it difficult to fit some things. Having a dress form really helps to get this right.
I have more pictures and information on my blog: Behind the laurel
cotton, linen, piping, apron

Love the fabric and piping on the bodice!
Nov 17, 2012, 04.50 PMby rshelly13
Thanks! The piping actually made it easier to piece the front together. It was hard matching up the fabric design as best that I could and the piping gave a little spacer between the fabric edges.

Twain recorded his observations and critiques of various aspects of culture and society he met on the journey, some more serious than others, which gradually turned from witty and comedic to biting and bitter as he drew closer to the Holy Land. Once in the Holy Land proper, his tone shifted again, this time to a combination of light-hearted comedy and a reverence not unlike what he had previously mocked in his traveling companions.< Less

Innovative Lancaster University technology start-up receives funding boost
Innovative technology start-up business Hardy & Ellis Inventions Limited are set to offer organisations in Manchester the latest in cutting-edge interactive technology thanks to a Technology Strategy Board grant worth more than £70,000.
The £72,000 prize will allow the company - which has been established by two Lancaster University alumni - to work with Manchester businesses to install spectacular new interactive technology that transforms everyday surfaces and objects into dynamic touch-screen interfaces.
Hardy & Ellis Inventions, based at Lancaster University's InfoLab21, was created to commercialise the high-quality research undertaken by the duo during their time studying at Lancaster University.
The Technology Strategy Board grant is part of the Creative Digital Launchpad funding scheme, which also offers Hardy & Ellis Inventions access to exclusive business networking opportunities and resources.
The pioneering business was founded by Dr John Hardy and Dr Carl Ellis, who specialise in rapid development and have just completed Lancaster University PhDs in sensor deployment, 3D mapping, and computer interactions. They beat stiff competition from 100 other applications during a gruelling three-stage process to be awarded the funding.
The duo are also receiving support through the Design Council to explore new innovative applications for their technologies.
Dr Ellis said: "We are absolutely thrilled to be awarded this grant. Innovation is vital for business growth and we are committed to developing technology that brings together the world of business and research."
"The ease and convenience of touch-screen technology has transformed the design and functionality of mobile phones significantly, and we want to bring this technology to companies in and around the Manchester area to help realise new business opportunities," added Dr Hardy.
Dr Steve Fish, from Lancaster University's School of Computing and Communications, said: "Dr Hardy and Dr Ellis have been involved in cutting-edge research here at Lancaster University and the applications they are bringing to market are highly innovative.
"It is great news that they have been awarded this grant and it will be exciting to see some of the creative ways their technology will be applied over the coming years."

From the Legislative Division of Post Audit:
The federal government requires organizations that receive a significant amount of federal funding to undergo a "single audit" in accordance with OMB Circular A-133.
TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - A state audit found the Kansas Department of Labor may have overpaid $73.5 million in unemployment benefits.
The findings were released Tuesday. A legislative post audit looked at whether the state was complying with 29 federal programs. The unemployment insurance program was the only one found to have problems.
The audit found the Labor Department paid claims before people were determined to be eligible and paid some claimants after the Additional Compensation Program ended. Those issues were cite as material weaknesses. The audit also listed 26 additional problem findings, which were classified as significant deficiencies. The audit said six of the problems had been noted in previous investigations.
Auditors say the federal government will determine whether the state will have to repay any of the $73.5 million in question.
All of the problem findings and the auditors' recommendations to address the problems are in the complete audit report, which can be found at this link.

The case out of New York presents an opportunity for the US Supreme Court to bring needed clarity to Establishment Clause jurisprudence. I hope they do so. We have witnessed a growing governmental hostility toward religious faith and expression in the public square. It does not serve the common good, runs contrary to our founding documents, and is unfaithful to our history as a free people. It is an improper application of the Establishment Clause, found in the First Amendment to the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution. It is a form of religious censorship which threatens our first freedom.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
5/22/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in U.S.
Keywords: Establishment Clause, Free Exercise Clause, Religious Freedom, public prayer, legislative prayer, ceremonial prayer,
WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - In the wake of the news that the IRS asked Pro-Life applicants for recognition of tax exemption under Section 501 about the actual content of their prayers comes news that another branch of the government has decided to examine the content of prayer.
The United States Supreme Court granted certiorari (Review) in the case of Town of Greece v. Galloway, et al. (docket 12-696) on Monday, May 20, 2013. Here is the official question as presented on the actual the docket of the Supreme Court. It summarizes the case and controversy.
In Marsh v. Chambers, 463 U.S. 783 (1983), this Court upheld the practice of starting legislative sessions with an invocation, based on an "unambiguous and unbroken history" of legislative prayer dating back to the First Congress. (Id. At 792.) The prayers in Marsh were offered for sixteen years by the same paid Presbyterian minister and frequently contained explicitly Christian themes. (See id. at 785, 793 n.14.)
Nonetheless, this Court held that such prayers are "simply a tolerable acknowledgment of beliefs widely held among the people of this country," and constitutional unless the selection of prayer-givers "stem[s] from an impermissible motive" or "the prayer opportunity has been exploited to proselytize or advance any one, or to disparage any other, faith or belief."( Id. at 792, 793, 794-95.) The Court declined to apply the test from Lemon v. Kurtzman, 403 U.S. 602 (1971).
In this case, the court of appeals held that the Town of Greece violated the Establishment Clause by allowing volunteer private citizens to open town board meetings with a prayer. Though the Town had never regulated the content of the prayers, had permitted any citizen from any religious tradition to volunteer to be a prayer-giver, and did not discriminate in selecting prayer-givers, the court struck down the Town's prayer practice, applying an "endorsement" test derived from Lemon. See App. 17a. The question presented is:
Whether the court of appeals erred in holding that a legislative prayer practice violates the Establishment Clause notwithstanding the absence of discrimination in the selection of prayer-givers or forbidden exploitation of the prayer opportunity.
Greece is a city in upper State New York which is home to about 100,000 residents. Like many cities, my own included, public legislative sessions begin with a prayer. Local clergy or lay leaders are regularly invited. As a member of the Clergy for 17 years, I have led such prayers on several occasions, locally and at the State level. It is a wonderful practice and rooted in the history of the American experiment.
Two residents in Greece, New York,Susan Galloway and Linda Stephens, did not like prayer before legislative session. So, they literally made a federal case out of the practice. They sued, claiming the practice was unconstitutional. One of them, Susan Galloway, is the named plaintiff. Her name will be memorialized in the decision of the Court.
They claimed that the prayer somehow constituted an establishment of the Christian religion. That claim was accepted by the Second Circuit Court - even though the facts clearly indicated that the prayers were offered by numerous representatives of various religious communities.
The Second Circuit took it upon themselves to decide that "a legislative prayer practice that, however well-intentioned, conveys to a reasonable objective observer under the totality of the circumstances an official affiliation with a particular religion, violates the clear command of the [First Amendment's] Establishment Clause."
Their law suit ended up going all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court after the Second Circuit Court of Appeals held the practice to be unconstitutional. The courageous City leaders sought this review. The two complaining parties fought the review because they were happy with the Second Circuit opinion.
This dispute, since it has been chosen for review by the US Supreme Court, now has the makings of becoming a major Establishment Clause case. The last time the High Court addressed prayer at the beginning of legislative sessions was in 1983 in a case entitled Marsh v. Chambers, out of Nebraska.
In that opinion the Court upheld the practice of having a State Chaplain begin legislative sessions with a prayer as a matter of a tradition dating back to the American founding. It did not use the so called "Lemon Test", which it formulated in 1971. Thus, it did not consider the content of the prayer.
Since then, the High Court has considered prayer at graduation and at football games. In those cases it did analyze the content of the prayer. It also considered whether the party offering it was somehow a state actor thereby triggering this indecipherable application of the establishment clause.
The notion is that such a connection somehow constitutes a government endorsement of religion. Discerning the rationale used by the Supreme Court opinions in this vital area of constitutional law is futile, because there is none.
All who are concerned about religious freedom in the United States should watch this new case with great concern. As a constitutional lawyer I have long questioned the current establishment clause law in our Nation. It is clearly an invention of a judicial branch increasingly hostile to religious faith and expression.
In 1992, when I served as the Executive Director of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) I wrote a law review article entitled "In the Wake of Weisman: The Lemon Test is Still a Lemon but the Psycho-coercion Test is more Bitter Still". In that article, I trace the history of the interpretation of the Establishment clause of the First Amendment to the US Constitution and the developments of the last few decades.
I predicted the insanity that would follow from the efforts of the Supreme Court to apply the so called "Lemon Rule" (named after the Courts 1971 opinion in Lemon v Kurtzman) and it's ever expanding "interpretations" and permutations.
Insanity is precisely what has occurred.
We are experiencing a judicial ping pong game in the decisions coming out of the Supreme Court concerning the Establishment Clause.
As it relates to religious displays in the public square, there are incomprehensible opinions requiring a showing that religious symbols have a secular purpose - as though religion and the common good are mutually exclusive.
Federal Judges now make up their own rules and preferences by which they decide whether a religious symbol will be allowed to stand on public land or in a public building. There is not even a pretense that the actual words of the Establishment Clause have any effect.
As it relates to the longstanding practice of acknowledging God at the beginning of deliberations of government, the intolerant secularists are urging the Courts to become religious censors. The decision of the Second Circuit in the case the US Supreme Court accepted on Monday is an example of how bad it has gotten.
The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the Bill of Rights is best understood as an anti-establishment clause. It was intended to prohibit the establishment of one particular religion - in the sense of a Federal or State sponsored Church which mandated adherence from unwilling citizens.
The American founders fled coercive approaches to religion which compelled adherence to a particular sect. Yet, they were also not anti-religious. They were assuredly not against religious symbols or religious expression. Our history is filled with them. Or, more accurately, it once was.
Religious symbols and legislative prayers are no longer seen as part of the history of the West and the American founding. Rather, they are perceived as a threat to the secularist order. When symbols are allowed they are eviscerated of any real religious meaning. They become secular and acceptable.
The U.S. Supreme Court handed down two opinions in Ten Commandment cases on June 27, 2005 which added to the confusion. The Justices (at least five of them) upheld a display of the Ten Commandments on public land in Texas if the display is placed within the context of other displays that speak to the history of the Nation.
However, the Court also held that some displays of those same commandments, with the very same content, cannot adorn the walls of a courthouse, at least if they look like ones which hung in Kentucky. It appears that if the Ten Commandments are placed within the context of other codes governing human behavior, such as they are in the display hung right in the U.S. Supreme Court, they might be permissible.
When prayer is engaged in at the beginning of legislative sessions will we soon have to submit it to obtain the approval of the State censors in black robes?
The case out of New York presents an opportunity for the US Supreme Court to bring needed clarity to Establishment Clause jurisprudence. I hope they do so. We have witnessed a growing governmental hostility toward religious faith and expression in the public square. It does not serve the common good.
The effort runs contrary to our founding documents, and is unfaithful to our history as a free people. It is an improper application of the Establishment Clause, found in the First Amendment to the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution. It is a form of religious censorship which threatens our first freedom.
Federal Judges make up their own rules by which they decide whether a religious symbol will be allowed to stand on public land or in a public building. They decide on their own what prayers are acceptable and which are not. There is no longer even a pretense that the actual words of the Establishment Clause, the Free Exercise Clause and the free Speech Clause have any objective meaning or effect.
Religious faith and expression - and the values informed by faith - serve and promote the common good. Religious freedom is a fundamental and basic human right which must be secured and protected by law in truly free Nations. Rightly understood and applied, religious freedom means a freedom for religious expression; not a removal of such expression from public places or a censoring of prayer from legislative sessions.
