To date, more than 20,000 people have joined the campaign on Charge.com, asking that The Baseball Hall of Fame to recognize Burke's contribution and popularization of the high five. In a late season game in 1977, Burke's Dodgers teammate, Dusty Baker, hit a home-run, and Burke who was on deck, raised his right hand as Baker crossed the home plate and gave him a high five.
"Glenn Burke came out to his teammates at a time when no one else was talking publicly about their sexual orientation, let alone athletes," said Redlien. "We live in a world where the contributions of gay athletes to the history of sports is often overlooked. It's time to recognize Burke's bravery so that young people today can be inspired by this important figure in baseball."
"It's amazing to think that Glenn Burke not only made history by coming out as gay, but that he also popularized something that millions upon millions of people do, from T-ball players to professional athletes, whenever they want to celebrate a special moment," added Redlien. "Burke's story is something that everyone deserves to learn about, as the contributions of gay athletes are all too often overlooked in professional sports."
Burke's career in the Major Leagues was short. According to a PBS documentary from 2010, Burke's sexual orientation caused friction between him and his managers, with a Dodgers official suggesting that Burke should get married to protect the team's image. Burke retired in 1980, and said a few years later that "prejudice drove me out of baseball sooner than I should have, but I wasn't changing."
Burke passed away in 1995, after a battle with substance abuse and HIV/AIDS-related complications.
"I think if Burke had been supported by managers and teammates early on, he would not have left baseball so early, and could have been a contender for the Hall of Fame," said Redlien. "Instead, Burke died tragically after feeling like he didn't belong in professional sports. It is time for his favorite sport to give him the respect he always deserved."
"Jeremy Redlien's petition is mobilizing thousands of people who want to see Glenn Burke honored in some way by the Baseball Hall of Fame, they are speaking out *and joining Jeremy's campaign in droves" said Joe Mirabella, Campaign Manager at Change.org.

Extending from 155th Street to Dyckman Street, Washington Heights is home to some of the most interesting geographic features in Manhattan.
The neighborhood's lofty name is derived from the fact that—at 256 feet above sea level—it is situated at the highest point in Manhattan. Because of its steep inclines, numerous "step" streets (one of which has 130 stairs) connect one street to the next.
The population of Washington Heights is over 150,000.learn more about this neighborhood

For Erin Gaffaney, CFCA sponsorship runs in the family.
Erin learned about CFCA through her grandfather, Harold.
Over the years, Harold talked to his family about sponsorship and it stuck with them.
"Over time I think some of his children and grandchildren saw the example he was setting and we now sponsor kids or elderly people ourselves," Erin said.
Erin, an elementary school music teacher, sponsors an elderly gentleman, Jose, in Guatemala. Sheís also using her musical talents to support CFCA's work.
Erin collaborated with a friend to record a Christmas CD titled, "Prepare Him Room." The duo will be donating proceeds to CFCA.
"It was never our intent to make this CD a money-making venture," Erin said. "It thrilled me more to make a quality product knowing that what we were doing was really going to affect people's lives."
The musical team put on two CD release parties in their local area and had CFCA sponsorship folders displayed on tables during the live shows.
Erin said CFCA was on the top of her mind when she was thinking about where proceeds would be donated because she was getting ready to meet her sponsored friend on a CFCA awareness trip. She met Jose Dec. 28 at the CFCA center in Guatemala.
The group of sponsors participating in the trip includes her grandfather, mother and two sisters.
"It's kind of turned out to become a generational thing," she said, "which is really neat to see."

- Allatostatins (1) (remove)
- Isolation and characterization of the B-type allatostatin gene of Gryllus bimaculatus de Geer (Ensifera, Gryllidae) (2004)
- 1. Cricket B type allatostatins, which belong to a neuropeptide family sharing the conserved W(X)6Wamide structure, exhibited inhibitory functions on the biosynthesis of juvenile hormones (JH) in vitro in the corpora allata (CA) as well as on ecdysteroid biosynthesis in the ovary of adult crickets (Gryllus bimaculatus). To understand the mechanisms of function of the pleiotropic cricket B type allatostatins, it is necessary to characterize their gene (preprohormone) and study the spatial and temporal expression patterns of the gene. 2. By PCR screening of a random primer cDNA library and by RACE (Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends), a 535 bp 3´cDNA sequence of the cricket B type allatostatin gene was yielded. This 3´cDNA fragment encodes a putative translation product of 85 amino acids with potential dibasic endoproteolytic cleavage sites, which may allow processing into six peptides including three copies of Grybi-AS B1 (GWQDLNGGWGa) and single copies of Grybi-AS B2 (GWRDLNGGWGa), Grybi-AS B3 (AWRDLSGGWGa), and Grybi-AS B6 (AWNNLGSAWGa), respectively. Three of these deduced peptides were previously isolated from cricket brain extracts by conventional chromatographic techniques and were designated as Grybi-AS B1, Grybi-AS B2, and Grybi-AS B3. The Grybi-AS B6 neuropeptide represents a novel member of the B type allatostatins. 3. The nucleotide sequences encoding the type B allatostatins are high in GC-content and show strong homology. The highest GC-content was found for Grybi-AS B3 with 83.3%. The similarity of the nucleotide sequences encoding Grybi-AS B2 and Grybi-AS B1 is 93.3%, whereas Grybi-AS B2 and B3 share 90% nucleotide identity. 4. By Southern blot analyses, it was proven that the Grybi-AS type B gene is present as a single copy per haploid genome of G. bimaculatus. 5. By RT in situ PCR technique, it could be demonstrated that the Grybi-AS B gene is expressed in various tissues of 1 day old female adult crickets: In the central nervous system the Grybi-AS B gene expression was detected in the brain. In the protocerebrum, strong positive signals were found in the median neurosecretory cells, and to a lesser extent in lateral neurosecretory cells and in neurons. Gene expression was also found in the neurosecretory cells of the deuterocerebrum and the tritocerebrum. Furthermore, Grybi - AS B gene expression was localized in neurosecretory cells of the suboesophageal ganglion (SOG), the thoracic ganglia, and the abdominal ganglia. In the germarium and in primary oocytes of the ovary, Grybi-AS B gene expression was detected as condensed signals in the nuclei, but not in the prefollicular cells or the cytoplasm. With ongoing development of the oocytes, the signals in the nuclei (germinal vesicles) appeared as separated granules with weaker intensity, which finally disappeared, whereas in the follicular cells strong signals became apparent. Grybi-AS B gene expression was also detected in the epithelial cells of the accessory reproductive glands of female crickets. In the caecum and midgut, Grybi-AS B gene expression was found in endocrine secretory and epithelial cells, whereas in the hindgut, positive RT in situ PCR signals were detected in both longitudinal and circular muscles and in the gut epithelial cells. Grybi-AS B gene expression was also found in cells of the fat body and in thoracic (flight) muscles. 6. The results on Grybi-AS B gene expression as obtained by RT in situ PCR were confirmed by RT-PCR and RNA dot blot analyses. The expression of the Grybi-AS B gene in various tissues of adult females varied in an age-dependent manner. In brains of virgin females gene expression increased from the day of emergence until day 8 of adult life. In the ovary of virgin females gene expression showed a maximum at day 4 after ecdysis, whereas in mated females gene expression was high during the first two days and at days 6 to 7, but low inbetween. In caecum and midgut of virgin females gene expression was low during the first 5 days after ecdysis, but peaked at days 6 and 7, whereas in the hindgut gene expression was highest at day 3 of adult life. In the fat body, gene expression showed highest values on day 1 and days 6 to 7 after ecdysis. 7. Gene expression in brain, testes, and accessory reproductive glands of 0 to 3 days old male crickets was also demonstrated by RT-PCR and RNA dot blot analyses.

Where did you go....what did you do??
Cut to go to see a Broadway matinnee with special entertainers like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. Back in the early 50's they had greatlive shows and it cost less for the matinees.
Rock n Roll shows @ the Paramount in Times Square. We'd go into the city early, get tickets when the box office opened, & spend a few hours having fun.
Kinda giving away my age now as my buddy Marty and me cut school and went to Manhattan to see the ticker tape parade for General MacArthur. It was a day I'll always remember.
I never cut classes since I had a afternoon job. I recall the adventurous stories told by my homeroom classmates of their visist to a Times Sq. movie.Times Square turns 100 yrs. old this month!
Last edited by Sal (2013-10-26 10:08:00)
Cut school fairly often, and amazingly, never got caught. Often times we'd just hang out in someone's apartment who's parents worked. I recall going to the Polo Grounds to see the Mets, amongst other places.
I really never cut classes in Francis Lewis High School (1967-69); however I did cut out for lunch on a regular basis to the "Island Diner" which was on the southeast corner of Horace Harding Expressway and Utopia Parkway. I remember a grouchy old waitress named Annie who would practically throw the food at you. I ate a lot of hamburger deluxes back then along with Cokes and finished off with a piece of chocolate pudding pie. DrSteve
GREAT POSTS...especially Dr. Steve, who knew quality way back then
Me, too, enjoying all the posts. Especialy mango seeing all those great entertainers and Olivia's Rock n Roll at the Paramount which must have showcased the terrific early RnR acts. I didn't cut, but often arrived late to get a coffee and Danish at Bickford's. Cost me "jug" - a walking punishment for half an hour after school.
Dr. Steve, I see that you were a regular at the Island Diner with the fake palm trees out front. My friends and I were also regulars stopping off after doing some bar hopping on Friday and Saturday nights. We would always manage to piss off Tony the Greek, one of the owners with our loud and boisterous language, although he sure liked our business.
We had a scheme that worked very well, but could only be used occasionally or it might be picked up by the admin. By chance we found out that our official class teacher's policy on being marked absent by mistake was to get a note from your first two period teachers confirming that you were in class the day of the marked absence. So we would miss official class and be marked absent. We would then go to our first two periods and be marked present before cutting out and having the shank of the day free. The next day, when our official class teacher asked us why we were absent, we'd protest and she would follow her policy, our classroom being in constant tormoil, with kids moving to different seats, etc. We'd get the note from our first two period teachers and she would amend her report and mark us present. The other period teachers probably wouldn't see the amended report so they wouldn't mark us as cutting since we were initially marked absent. We would not be marked absent or cutting in the final analysis. Our first stop would usually be at Times Square - arcades, movies, etc. before heading back to Queens to beat everyone to our hangout.
Jack..I cut many a class and went to Times Square.. A friend and I got "hooked" on that silly game Fascination and we would spend all day there rolling the ball and winning cheap prizes.
Jimbo: As I always have said "it is indeed a small world." I can't get over how often many of us board buddies crossed paths but never knew it! DrSteve
DR. Steve...Jimbo and I have so much in common, its amazing we never knew each other..As for you and I, we lived right near each other for a while. I lived in Alley Pond Apts on 224th off Springfield Blvd, in the 80s. My Doctor lived in your complex on 73rd ave.
My gal Judy, (straight A student) frowned upon me and my buddy Marty cutting classes together. She said he was a bad influence on me and I now realize she was somewhat jealous of our friendship. Marty was a restless soul and I was his accomplice. Many a time after cutting classes we would hitch a ride with a trucker heading for NJ, Manhattan or some other place just to be on the go. Then after we got there we would try to figure out a way to get back home.
Only cut class one time in H.S. Just simply didn't want to go to school that day for some reason.I believe I killed the day walking around Rockaway Beach.
My way of going uncaught for playing hookie, was as follows. Whenever you were absent at Newtown HS, they sent a postcard home, and a letter explaining the absence was required to be brought into school. Living in Pomonok(a housing project), the mailboxes required a key to open. I borrowed the key once and fashioned a duplicate for myself. So whenever I played hookie, I would get the mail before my parents did, and trash the postcard. I would get a buddy of mine, the same one every time, to forge my fathers signature on a letter, as it was always my mother who signed the letter when it was a legit absence. Managed to never get caught. Not really sure I should be proud of that, but it did work.
Ed, I vaguely remember a tall thin kid who worked for the Carvel store on The Hill serving the custard cones we loved so much... Was that you?Dr. Steve, the Island Diner served some damned good hamburgers. I would usually order a burger with the works and fries with gravy on them. They would always question the gravy on the fries but that's how I liked them. I'm sure we ate burgers together... I just didn't know you back then.
Jimbo, I have never been accused of being thin, tall yes, but never thin. It must have been one of my co workers. I don't know why I never mentioned this before, but I also had a best friend named Marty..He looked exactly like Paul Newman, so it served well for us with the girls.
we used to frequent the diner on the hill after the bars closed..One night about 15 of us went there to have breakfast about 4 AM..The night mgr. was an old cranky Greek named Tony and he refused to serve us.. We were all sitting together and when the waitress advised us that we could not get any food, we took all the live plants they had for decoration and ate them..We left the a nice mess and something to consider for the next time.
