Federal Law
May 23, 2010
By Craig LaBan, Inquirer Restaurant Critic
If you happen to live or work in a dining wasteland, as I once did, it helps to pray to the food gods for an accidental restaurant row to appear. One day, you're eating drippy burritos and chicken Caesar salads from a lunch truck. Then - poof! - the next day you're slurping uni-topped oysters alongside sizzling stone bowls of bibimbap in a room of spa-like tranquillity. The recent arrival of Doma - and its tasty neighbors on the suddenly bustling dining strip of Callowhill Street - proves that such miraculous things can happen in an unlikely place.
Beyond Doma, There's The Question Of Acceptance
September 16, 1996
I was 19 and a painfully sincere college sophomore that spring of 1972 when I confided that I'm gay to more dear friends than anyone ever has. My sister, 11 years older, said the news was easy to accept, having known me since before I was. But she didn't know how she'd react if her 3 1/2-year-old son were my age and saying the same thing. It's a reality most gays and lesbians live with: Even those who try their best to love us unconditionally may have places within them where they see us as children of a lesser god. So unlike some number of politically - and maybe even socially - naive gay and lesbian activists, I'm not surprised or freshly wounded by the Defense of Marriage Act (DoMA)

If you have three young children and a restaurant, you'd think your life was busy enough. But when Robert and Patti Moon, who have owned Shiroi Hana, in Center City, since 1995, sent the last toddler to Montessori school, they figured it was time to nurture another restaurant. Located on what is becoming a nice stretch of diverse eateries on Callowhill Street, Doma opened its doors about a month ago. This is a more casual venue than Shiroi Hana and offers an interesting menu of cold and hot appetizers that are perfect plates for sharing.
Halt U.S.' defining of marriage The author of the classic 1996 law now sees things a bit differently.
January 7, 2009
By Bob Barr
In 1996, as a freshman member of the House of Representatives, I wrote the Defense of Marriage Act, better known by its acronym, DOMA. The law has been a flash-point for those arguing for or against same-sex marriage ever since President Bill Clinton signed it into law. Even President-elect Barack Obama has grappled with its language, meaning and impact. I can sympathize with the incoming commander-in-chief. And, after long and careful consideration, I have come to agree with him that the law should be repealed.
What the new view of Marriage Act means
February 25, 2011
By DAVID GAMBACORTA, firstname.lastname@example.com 215-854-5994
People were shocked - shocked! - across the country on Wednesday, after the Obama administration announced that it had deemed the Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional. The administration's move reignited the long-simmering debate over whether the government should recognize gay marriages. Talk-show hosts have been irate. Some of your neighbors and co-workers have been arguing loudly. Perhaps some of your family members aren't on speaking terms any longer. And perhaps you've been feeling left out because you don't know what all the hullabaloo is about.
House group files against lesbians' case
October 16, 2011
By Sudhin Thanawala, Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO - Gays and lesbians are not entitled to the same heightened legal protection and scrutiny against discrimination as racial minorities and women in part because they are far from politically powerless and have ample ability to influence lawmakers, lawyers for a U.S. House group said in a federal court filing. The filing Friday in San Francisco's U.S. District Court comes in the case of a lesbian federal employee's lawsuit claiming the government wrongly denied health coverage to her same-sex spouse.
Gay, binational couple joins fight against federal antigay law
January 13, 2012
By Michael Matza, Inquirer Staff Writer
They met at a birthday party in 1990, were instantly smitten, and, after years of transatlantic romancing, got married in California in 2008. Today, they have four adopted children, ages 6 to 11, and a comfortable home in Harrisburg. But a sword of Damocles hangs over the couple, only one of whom is an American citizen. The other is French, and vulnerable to deportation. Under federal immigration law, married binational couples usually can fix this precarious situation with a family reunification petition, seeking a green card for the foreign-born spouse.
Military waits on housing aid for same-sex partners
February 13, 2013
By Lolita C. Baldor, Associated Press
WASHINGTON - The Defense Department is not extending some housing benefits to same-sex partners of service members even though it legally could because the complex issue requires more review and has triggered concerns among military leaders, senior Pentagon officials said Monday. A department memo detailed a number of other benefits that will be extended to same-sex partners, including identification cards that will provide access to commissaries and other services. But Pentagon officials said that while some housing payments and health benefits can't be included because of federal law, some access to base housing is not specifically prohibited and could be offered in the future.
Reactions in the region and the nation
June 27, 2013
"I believe the Supreme Court's ruling on DOMA was a critical step in strengthening equal rights for all. " - U.S. Sen. Bob Casey (D. Pa.) "Every American should have equal rights under the law, including the legal right to marry who they love and are committed to. " - U.S. Rep. Allyson Y. Schwartz (D., Pa.), who is seeking the Democratic nomination for governor "The . . . ruling is now the law of the land. While the national debate over marriage will continue, it is appropriate that legally married same-sex couples receive equal treatment and benefits under the law. " - U.S. Rep. Frank LoBiondo (R., N.J.)
Same-sex marriage debate: What you need to know
March 29, 2013
BY WILL BUNCH, Daily News Staff Writer firstname.lastname@example.com, 215-854-2957
CAN NINE men and women in thick black robes jump onto a fast-moving train? That's the challenge facing the U.S. Supreme Court after two days of historic arguments this week on whether to remove some or possibly all of the barriers to same-sex marriage. Although the high court hearings echoed the history of the landmark rulings on civil rights for blacks and other minority groups in the 20th Century, there was a huge difference. Polls have shown a huge and rapid reversal in public opinion on gay marriage since the laws in question - the federal 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA, and California's Proposition 8 from 2008 - were enacted.

Fresh legal challenge on same-sex marriage
September 28, 2013

In a federal lawsuit that could have national resonance, a lesbian couple legally married in Massachusetts is challenging the Pennsylvania law that refuses to recognize their union. The suit, filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in Philadelphia, was brought by Cara Palladino and Isabelle Barker, who were married in Northampton, Mass. in February 2005 then moved to Pennsylvania six months later. The couple, now living in Philadelphia, work at Bryn Mawr College and have a 4-year-old son. Rather than a full-on attack of the heart of Pennsylvania's Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA)
DN Editorial: March in place?
August 27, 2013
A FEW DAYS before its 50th anniversary, we think of the March on Washington, and the civil-rights movement that it embodied, as a triumph of democracy. In the grand sense, this is true. Protest is by no means exclusive to democracies, but it's more at home in a democratic system than any other. The civil-rights movement extended the promise of democracy to many who had been denied it. But there were also aspects of the movement's victories that could be spun as undemocratic. Many Southern whites decried the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as an imposition of external values on the majorities of residents in their states (the internal value they were protecting, of course, was the right to discriminate)
N.J. judge set to rule on same-sex marriage bid
August 17, 2013
By Julia Terruso, Inquirer Staff Writer
TRENTON - A Superior Court judge said Thursday that it would be at least September before she decides on a motion filed by couples seeking to legalize same-sex marriages in New Jersey following recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings. Attorneys for the couples took aim at the state's civil union laws Thursday in Trenton, telling Judge Mary C. Jacobson that they were preventing their clients from receiving federal benefits they would be entitled to if same-sex marriages were permitted. The key question that Jacobson must answer is whether the civil union laws violate the state constitution's equal protection mandate because they do not provide for certain benefits at the federal level, which are reserved for married heterosexual and homosexual couples.
Kathleen Kane: A question of honor
July 19, 2013
GROWING UP, I was taught that some things were non-negotiable: Mass was one. The 10 p.m. summer curfew was another. Making the bed, kissing the over-perfumed relatives without a grimace and Lawrence Welk on Saturday nights were still others. But the thing that sticks out in my mind like the brightest star in a constellation, the single most important lesson taught to me by a father who seemed to sense his time was limited so he had to rush, was the absolute and uncompromising mandate that his children be honorable.

Charles Krauthammer: Dual rationale on DOMA
July 2, 2013
By Charles Krauthammer
Under the Defense of Marriage Act, the federal government does not recognize same-sex marriages even in states that have legalized it. Last week, the Supreme Court ruled DOMA unconstitutional. There are two possible grounds, distinct and in some ways contradictory, for doing so. The curious thing about the court's DOMA decision is that it contains both rationales. The first is federalism. Marriage is the province of the states. Each state decides who is married and who is not. The federal government may not intrude.
The undivinable high court - or is it?
July 1, 2013
By Robert Barnes, Washington Post
WASHINGTON - An extraordinary finale to a history-making term once again revealed the Supreme Court to be Washington's most unpredictable institution. Or at least that's how it must appear. One day's decision left essentially untouched the court's controversial permission to let race play some role in college admissions. It was followed the next day by a decision overruling Congress and striking down the heart of the Voting Rights Act, which has protected minority voters for nearly half a century.
DOMA's end is no panacea, and the court and Pa. are the same
June 28, 2013
THE Supreme Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act yesterday as an unconstitutional denial of the liberty guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment. But it was not a day to celebrate the court - not after Tuesday's Voting Rights Act atrocity. We already knew that the U.S. has checks and balances in place to defend minority groups against the tyranny of the majority; the question is whether they're used. "Sometimes" isn't good enough. Yesterday was, however, a day to celebrate, by cheering the heroic progress of a just and moral movement for equality.

"Honestly, I didn't think it would affect me that much, because it doesn't change the fact that I can't be legally married here.
Letters: Gay, interracial are not equal
June 28, 2013
SO, THE Supreme Court has overturned DOMA. Fine. The patent obscenity of the issue is the same-sex-marriage proponents' continued parallel to interracial marriage. Bans by states on interracial marriage are rooted in slavery, being counted as 3/5th of a person, being defined as property, Jim Crow, the Black Codes and the ideals of the KKK. Equating the two is horribly ignorant of black history and offensive to those of us who are in an interracial marriage. Joseph J.

UC Davis honey bee specialist Eric Mussen fingered a line-up of prime suspects at his 'ÄúBSI: The Case of the Disappearing Bees'ÄĚ lecture, part of the UC Davis Department of Entomology'Äôs Distinguished Seminar Series.
Mussen identified malnutrition, parasitic mites, infectious microbes and insecticide contamination as among the possible culprits. It'Äôs a complex issue, he said, but one thing is certain: 'ÄúIt seems unlikely that we will find a specific, new and different reason for why bees are dying.'ÄĚ
Colony collapse disorder (CCD), a phenomenon where bees mysteriously abandon their hives, is not a new occurrence, said Mussen, the Extension Apiculturist at UC Davis since 1976.
'ÄúSimilar phenomena have been observed since 1869,'ÄĚ he said. 'ÄúIt persisted in 1963, 1964 and 1965 and was called Spring Dwindling, Fall Collapse and Autumn Collapse. Then in 1975, it was called Disappearing Disease.'ÄĚ
'ÄúBut the disease wasn'Äôt what was disappearing,'ÄĚ Mussen quipped. 'ÄúThe bees were."
Massive bee die-off also occurred during the winter of 2004-05, but only those who read bee journals knew about it, Mussen told the crowd in the campus Activities Recreation Center. The latest die-off caught the attention of the national media last fall when a Pennsylvania beekeeper asked researchers at Pennsylvania State University to look at samples of his dying bees in Pennsylvania and Florida. 'ÄúThe local media picked up the story and the rest is history, including yours truly on the Lehrer Hour.'ÄĚ
One-third of America's honey bees vanished this past year due to the mysterious CCD, characterized by almost total hive abandonment. Nearly all adult worker bees unexpectedly fly away from the hive, abandoning the stored honey, pollen, larvae and pupae. Usually they leave in less than a week, and only the queen and a few young workers remain, Mussen said.
Honey bees normally do not abandon their brood, he said. 'ÄúNurse bees'ÄĚ continually feed the young, which increase 1,000-fold in size in six days.
'ÄúThat'Äôs like an 8-pound baby weighing 4 tons in six days,'ÄĚ Mussen said.
Mussen, who received the American Association of Professional Apiculturists'Äô excellence award in January for his bee industry leadership and apicultural research publications, and was named the California State Beekeepers'Äô Association'Äôs 2006 'ÄúBeekeeper of the Year'ÄĚ for his industry-wide contributions, finds the silence of the bees troubling.
"The real reason bees are important is that we rely on them for crop pollination," he said. Commercial honey bees pollinate about 90 of the country's crops, valued at $15 billion.
'ÄúOne third of our U.S. diet depends on honey bees,'ÄĚ Mussen said. 'ÄúIf bees produce fruits and vegetables somewhere else, do we (Americans) want to be as dependent on food as we are on oil?'ÄĚ
Bees are especially crucial to California'Äôs 600,000 acres of almonds, he said. To pollinate the almonds, growers need 1.2 million bee hives, 'Äúbut California doesn'Äôt have 1.2 million bee hives, so they have to be trucked here.'ÄĚ
That, he said, can add to the bee stress.
Mussen linked malnutrition as a key factor in CCD. Honey bee nutrition is 'Äúweather dependent,'ÄĚ he said. 'ÄúThe best-fed bees are the healthiest, while malnourished bees are less resistant.'ÄĚ
Malnutrition and climate-linked issues include:
- Did local weather events affect pollen-producing plants negatively?
- Was there a lack of bloom (nectar and pollen) due to lack of rain or too much heat?
- Was there reduced access to flowers due to excess rain?
- Did cold nights interfere with meiosis that led to 'Äústerile'ÄĚ or 'Äúnon-viable'ÄĚ pollens?
- Do these types of pollen contain the usual proteins, vitamins, minerals and lipids required by the bees?
Mussen said that many regions in the United States experienced significant drought in 2006. 'ÄúThe U.S. honey crop was off 11 percent, one of the lowest on record. The California crop was off 30 percent; North and South Dakota crops were off nearly 15 and 40 percent respectively.'ÄĚ
If there's malnutrition in August and September, that adversely affects the winter bees, he said. A mix of quality pollens is required to rear healthy winter bees.
Unlike the California definition based on amount of water in the reservoirs, the beekeepers'Äô definition of drought is: Is there enough soil moisture to keep the flowers growing? "This year there was not,'ÄĚ Mussen said.
Malnourished bees are more susceptible to disease, predators and insecticides, he pointed out. The Varroa destructor mites, introduced here in 1987 from the Asian bee (Apis cerana), spread across the country in five years, killing the American bee (Apis mellifera), known as the European bee.
Compared to fruit flies and mosquitoes, 'Äúbees have a limited immune system; they'Äôre pretty anemic,'ÄĚ he said.
Another problem: 'ÄúVarroa mites have become resistant to most legal chemical controls that used to keep them in check.'ÄĚ
Mussen cast suspicion on several viruses as CCD factors: the Kashmir bee virus, acute bee paralysis virus, deformed wing virus, black queen cell virus and the Israel acute paralysis virus.
'ÄúHoney bees have about 20 known viruses, most of which can cause disease,'ÄĚ he said. Some viruses remain latent, just like chicken pox in humans, which can show up as shingles later in life.
USDA scientists found the Israeli acute paralysis virus, in nearly all of the CCD colonies they tested, but none in the control group. In addition, they found the Kashmir bee virus in all the CCD colonies tested.
Also found in all the CCD colonies tested were the infectious microbes Nosea ceranae and Nosema apis. N. ceranae, a relatively new fungal disease of American honey bees, was imported from the Asian honey bee, Apis cerana. N. apis, its American counterpart, has been around for at least a century.
A favorite suspect among the beekeepers is neonicotinoids, chemicals designed to mimic the toxic effects of a neurotoxin from the tobacco family. The nicotine-like insecticide kills fleas on cats and dogs, and is used as a seed treatment and in side dressing and foliar spray applications.
'ÄúThe insecticides enter various plant tissues and become distributed, systemically, throughout the plant,'ÄĚ he said. 'ÄúNicotine is so toxic to humans that if you put a drop of pure nicotine on your finger, you'Äôre dead.'ÄĚ
Neonicotinoids have been formulated to be nearly non-toxic to mammals, birds, and fish but remain extremely toxic to invertebrates.
Laboratory studies showed that miniscule doses of neonicotinoids increased the rate of learning in bees, but at high doses, bees failed to respond to training.
'ÄúIt wasn'Äôt memory loss; it was intoxication,'ÄĚ Mussen said. 'ÄúThey were drunk.'ÄĚ
Another suspect: Gaucho¬ģ (imidacloprid), used as a seed treatment on sunflowers. Beekeepers claimed that when bees visited sunflowers, they never returned to their hives; 'Äúthey lost their memory.'ÄĚ France and Spain banned imidacloprid, but 'Äúbees are still failing in their hives,'ÄĚ Mussen noted.
Mussen said no scientific documentation exists to blame imidacloprid for the bee die-off. A study found only 5 parts per billion maximum in the nectar of sunflowers and canola, he said. The Bayer fact sheet indicates that the insecticide is toxic to honey bees at 192 ppb.
Among the more 'Äúquirky'ÄĚ explanations for CCD: cell phone usage, alien encounters, honey bee 'Äúrapture'ÄĚ (where hive populations 'Äúascend to that big honeycomb in the sky en masse'ÄĚ); and chemtrails, aircraft-released vapors.
'ÄúSome thought chemtrails was a military-industrial complex plan to kill all children and old people 'ÄĒ and got the bees and birds by mistake,'ÄĚ Mussen said.
Mussen said he hopes that the current fascination with honey bees will lead to more research and more research funding.

In the NFL's postseason, just one player can be the difference between advancing to the next round and going home early.
Here is one x-factor for all eight teams participating in this weekend's Divisional Round:
Kansas City Chiefs: TE Travis Kelce
It's no secret that the Chiefs will have to run the football and pressure Tom Brady to beat the Patriots in New England. But winning in the postseason must also include big plays in the passing game, and it'll likely fall on the shoulders of Kelce to provide them.
Jeremy Maclin, who caught 87 passes for 1,088 yards and eight touchdowns in 2015, might not play due to an ankle injury. Kelce led all players with 128 receiving yards during the Wild Card Round, and he burned the Patriots for eight catches, 93 yards and a touchdown during Kansas City's rout last season.
New England Patriots: RB James White
Think back to last year's Super Bowl, when New England used running back Shane Vereen as a vital chess piece against Seattle's fast, attacking defense. Vereen caught 11 passes, including five for first downs. The Patriots could use White in a similar role against the Chiefs on Saturday.
Since replacing Dion Lewis as England's go-to receiving running back, White has caught 40 passes, with four touchdowns. His ability to find space underneath could help the Patriots negate some of Kansas City's pressure against Tom Brady.
Green Bay Packers: Offensive Line
The Packers lost in Arizona in December by 30 points, mostly due to a beat-up offensive line that allowed Rodgers to be sacked eight times—including twice resulting in fumble recoveries for touchdowns. The Cardinals' unrelenting pressure caused four giveaways, which Arizona turned into 28 points.
The Packers can hang with the Cardinals if the Green Bay offensive line plays as well as it did Sunday in Washington. If not, another blowout is probably on the horizon. Getting back left tackle David Bakhtiari, who is progressing from an ankle injury, should help.
Arizona Cardinals: DL Calais Campbell
The Packers had no answer for Campbell during the first meeting, when Arizona's Pro Bowl defensive lineman tallied three tackles for losses and 2.5 of the Cardinals' nine sacks. He's often too much to handle for interior offensive linemen, and his ability to attack off stunts has opened up rushing lanes for veteran Dwight Freeney.
Green Bay knows it has to protect Rodgers far better to have a chance at the upset. Campbell can single-handedly blow up that plan, much like he did back in Week 16.
Seattle Seahawks: LB Bobby Wagner
Wagner is one of the only linebackers in the game capable of handling everything the Panthers will throw his way Sunday. Not only is he athletic enough to spy Cam Newton and cover tight end Greg Olsen down the field, but his attacking style provides the anchor for Seattle's top ranked run defense.
The Seahawks didn't have Wagner for the first meeting back in October. To better contain the Panthers offense and advance to the NFC Championship Game for the third straight year, Seattle must get a great game from their All-Pro inside linebacker.
Carolina Panthers: WR Devin Funchess
The Panthers have everything they need on offense, save for maybe a go-to outside receiver. Funchess is slowly, but surely, developing into that player late in his rookie season. At 6'4″ and 225 pounds, Funchess has game-changing size and growing confidence within a diverse Carolina offense.
The Panthers can run the football in many different ways, and tight end Greg Olsen and speedster Ted Ginn provide contrasting abilities in the passing game. If Funchess comes on, even Seattle's No. 1 ranked defense might fold under the pressure of Carolina's multifaceted attack.
Pittsburgh Steelers: WR Martavis Bryant
The Steelers might be without both Antonio Brown and DeAngelo Williams, and quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is dealing with a shoulder injury that could limit his ability to throw the football. How will Pittsburgh score enough to win on the road in Denver?
Insert Bryant, one of the playoff's true big-play creators. His ability to get open vertically, win in the red zone and create in the open field should make him the Steelers' go-to player on offense if Brown and Williams can't go. In the first meeting between these two teams back in December, Bryant caught a season-high 10 passes.
Denver Broncos: QB Peyton Manning
The Broncos have the defense and running game to make a deep run into the playoffs, but the quarterback position remains the one question mark. Manning will get another shot to weld all the pieces together.
He did just enough in the second half of Denver's Week 17 win, and he's probably as healthy now as he's been all season. But what can we expect from the 39-year-old quarterback? The Broncos need Manning to stay efficient and avoid the big turnovers.

My first game at Mackey Arena saw Purdue playing Northwestern—not the hated Hoosiers of Indiana. When the second-half chant rained down from the Paint Crew student section, it was hard not to laugh.
This rivalry is real.
I didn't attend Purdue or Indiana, am not from the Hoosier State, and have no affiliation to either university. But you don't have to be an Indiana native to understand what makes the in-state rivalry so special.
Purdue and Indiana are different in so many ways. The two schools are in separate ends of the state, each having their own unique prestige. But what matters most in this rivalry is basketball. It's black and old gold vs. crimson and cream, Gene Keady vs. Bob Knight, and rich history vs. rich history.
The hatred between the two schools is genuine. Purdue fans are raised to dislike Indiana and Hoosiers are raised to hate Boilermakers. That's just the way it works.
There's a loyalty committed to each school. There's no rooting for any other team (unless you're an Indiana fan and it's football season). A large group of Purdue students were camped out at Mackey Arena more than 24 hours the gates open.
In Indiana, basketball is everything. For this Chicago native, it's something I've grown to admire since moving to West Lafayette. That's why I'm so excited for my first Purdue-Indiana game.
This season, both Purdue and Indiana are struggling, each entering with a record of 14-10 and 4-7 in Big Ten play. The winner of Saturday's contest earns bragging rights, and that's about it. But in this rivalry, that's more than enough—especially with this being the lone matchup of the season.
Mackey Arena will be packed to the rafters when it's time for tipoff. The records get thrown out with a rivalry like this.
There's no better Big Ten rivalry than this one. It's in-state hate, it's tradition, and above all, it's basketball in the state of Indiana. The games between Purdue and Indiana are special.
For this newcomer to Indiana, the first experience of the rivalry is something I'm looking forward to. Now, I have a better understanding for the history of Purdue and Indiana.
That "IU sucks!" chant doesn't catch me by surprise.

Allan Houston > Anthony Robertson.
Reported from The Knick Fix's Katie Strang,
Former Knicks guard Allan Houston said today he is planning a comeback to the NBA. Houston, one of the best outside shooters in Knicks history (1996-2005), was on hand as a guest speaker/coach at the 17th annual Gatorade Knicks Summer Basketball Camp held at Hunter College. After talking to 150 campers, ages 8-18, and teaching them about defensive positioning* and the importance of character on and off the court, Houston shared his thoughts on a return to the NBA.
"I am going to try and come back this year," Houston said, adding that his agent has been in contact with a couple teams in the league.
While Houston did not want to name those teams specifically, he said that after Labor Day he should have a better idea of potential landing spots.
Houston, who left the Knicks and the NBA in 2005 with knee injuries, said he never felt like the book was shut on his professional career.
"I never thought of it as retirement," Houston said. "I thought of it as, 'I need a break'."
Now that Houston has had ample rest and time to recover from the knee injuries that plagued him the last couple years of his career, Houston said he is feeling great and wants to show teams in September he can still perform at a high level.

"The Knicks are back" - Amare
Allan Houston > Anthony Robertson.
houstin is one dimensional....he should go on a team that needs vet leadership, not a team like us with high demand for productivity....i see him signing wth the cavs or the magic
i hope knicks dont give him another 6year-100 mil $ deal. lol
As I thought before, he should have come back, but due to the Isaiah era, thank god he did not. So even now, I think he should come back and finish on his own terms with a more advanced coach.
I do not see him joining any other organization, he loves New York!
The Spurs will snatch him up. Mike D may be perfect to get the most out of whatever game Allan has left.
It really would be another symbolic move that closes the door on Thomas's reign of error.
It would also be a much needed nod to the fans.
I want to rock my Allan jersey again. Jeffries should be shot for daring to take number 20.
yesssss, finally god is alife!!!! also take back to knick partick ewins and lartwell spearwel from retirment then take fat eddy cury and zac randfold and shoot them with uzi gun in time square along with isaih tomas. fat eddy cury belong in burger king and cruise ship turn more fast than zxac randolfs. COME BAC ALLEN HUSTON PLASSSSSSEEEEE!!!!
Please bring back the NYK intro from the 1994 Finals...PLEASE!!!!
There's always the most ironic shyt going down, but if it's to get a ring then I'll live with it, and watch a few of there games just to see how he does and hopefully they can get him what he's been aiming for.
I really hope he reconsiders going elsewhere and the Knicks orginization try and put serious interest in him.
This would be a close exclamation point for change if we inserted him into the mix. (btw, no homo intended!)

Allan Houston's career 3pt%: 40.2%
Allan Houston's career ft%: 86.3%
Allan Houston's playoff games played with the Pistons: 3
Allan Houston's playoff games played with the Knicks: 60
There's a big difference between Houston and Crawford.
Allan Houston also had a high basketball IQ, and Jamal Crawford has a long reputation of having a low basketball IQ.
Allan Houston had leadership qualities, and Jamal Crawford has none. Crawford is the kind of player that'll give Curry a five after letting a point guard lay it up on him.
I don't know how Houston is now, but he deserves a chance to come back with the Knicks. I don't even have to watch him play to know that he's better than Mardy Collins, Anthony Roberson, and Chris Duhon.

Convincing evidence is rapidly accumulating that most pulmonary emboli of extracardiac origin arise from thrombophlebitis in the deep veins of the lower extremities.1 The passage of an embolus from the leg to the lung can be prevented by division of the femoral vein. Indeed, Fine and Sears2 have recently urged this procedure in all cases of deep thrombophlebitis of the lower extremity as the most effective prophylaxis against embolism. The prevention of pulmonary embolus depends on the early recognition of the venous thrombosis, but the clinical evidence of phlebitis may be equivocal or entirely lacking until a pulmonary infarct indicates its presence. A method which can establish the diagnosis and locate the side on which the process lies has been provided by the venographic technic recently described by Bauer.3 The benefits of this diagnostic procedure are the subject of this communication.

There are a few things you should know about Erie self storage before you begin your search. The pricing and availability of storage units in Erie will depend on several factors such as the real estate climate, the number of people moving into or throughout the area, housing conditions in the city, and the general wealth and prosperity of the area. The US Census keeps accurate data relating to all of these factors, so we've used their data on Erie to help inform your Erie self storage search.
If there are many people moving to or from Erie, prices could be higher than in other cities. That's because self storage if often used as part of a home move. By looking at population changes in Erie, we should be able to get an idea of how many people are moving to or from the city. The US Census tells us that the metro area population of Erie declined from 101,746 in 2010 to 99,452 in 2014, a loss of -2.25%.
One way to get an idea of the demand for housing and storage space in Erie is to look at housing occupancy and vacancy rates. If housing occupancy rates in Erie are high, it's probably safe to assume that storage facility occupancy rates in Erie are also high, which would push unit prices up. The US Census estimates that housing vacancy rates in Erie are at 8.7%, while the occupancy rate is at 91.3%. That's a lower vacancy rate than the average for cities in the United States, and suggests that storage facility vacancy in Erie may also be lower. Low vacancy allows storage facilities to charge higher rent, so a cheap storage unit could be trickier to find in Erie than in other cities.

Objective: To determine the effects of a nonsedating tricyclic antidepressant (protriptyline) on pulmonary function (lung volume, expiratory flow), arterial blood gases, sleep architecture, and sleep-induced breathing abnormalities in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Design: A before-and-after trial in which patients, blinded to treatment, were given a placebo for 2 weeks, followed by 2 and 10 weeks of protriptyline treatment.
Setting: Referral-based pulmonology clinic in a public institution.
Patients: Sixteen outpatients were enrolled in the trial. Complete results for 11 patients and partial results for 3 patients are presented.
Interventions: Patients were evaluated at baseline, after receiving placebo for 2 weeks, and after 2 and 10 weeks of protriptyline therapy (20 mg/d, taken at bedtime).
Measurements and Main Results: At baseline, for the whole group, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) was 1.0 ±0.08 L (mean ±SE); the partial pressure of O2 in arterial blood (PaO2) was 59 ±1.2 mm Hg; and the partial pressure of CO2 in arterial blood (Paco2) was 48.9 ±1.2 mm Hg. These variables remained stable after placebo. Pulmonary function test results were unchanged with protriptyline therapy. Arterial blood gas levels improved with such therapy: PaO2 levels increased by 5.1 ±1.4 mm Hg after 2 weeks and 6.7 ±2.4 mm Hg after 10 weeks (P < 0.01); PaCO2 levels decreased by 4.2 ±0.9 mm Hg after 2 weeks and 2.2 ±1.1 mm Hg after 10 weeks (P < 0.01). Total sleep times were similar at these visits. The only change in sleep architecture was a significant decrease in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. The lowest value for the saturation of hemoglobin with O2 in arterial blood (SaO2) seen during sleep was 72.0% ±2.0% at baseline. After 2 and 10 weeks of protriptyline therapy, SaO2 values increased by 7.1% ±1.6% and 5.0% ±2.1%, respectively (P < 0.01). With protriptyline therapy, the cumulative SaO2 curve, derived from data obtained during sleep, shifted down and to the right.
Conclusions: Protriptyline improves diurnal and nocturnal hypoxemia in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. These changes are not related to changes in pulmonary mechanics.

John Carpenter's Vampires
- Directed by John Carpenter
===Story=== Talk about an opening. The first few minutes of John Carpenter's ''Vampires''--in which James Woods's vampire killer leads a dawn raid on a New Mexico "goon nest" of bloodsuckers--not only suggests a horror movie that will not pull any punches, it even evokes some of the more disturbing dream-memories of American Westerns. Muscular and uncompromised, the sequence suggests a new Carpenter classic unraveling before one's eyes. Well, dream on. Things don't quite work out that way, but this is still a film to reckon with. There are a few serious (and surprising) misjudgments on the director's part, particularly a mishandling of Sheryl Lee's role as a prostitute poisoned by the bite of a "master vampire" (who pretty much wiped out Woods's team of goon terminators). But aside from some weaknesses, the action is jolting, the suggested complicity of the Catholic Church in destroying monsters is provocative, and the traces of Howard Hawks's continuing influence on Carpenter's storytelling are in evidence.

Welcome to the Arc of Durham County
Dedicated to serving people with developmental disabilities and their families, the Arc of Durham County is a non-profit agency. We strive to create and improve opportunities by providing leadership in and advocacy for quality human services, family support, information and referral, and public awareness.
The Arc of Durham County: Who Are We?
The Arc of Durham County is a non-profit agency dedicated to serving people with developmental disabilities and their families. The Arc strives to create and improve opportunities by providing leadership in and advocacy for quality human services, family support, information and referral, and public awareness.
The Arc of Durham County was started in 1954 by a small group of parents seeking appropriate services for their children in the public school system. It was a membership organization and part of a national network of local organizations under The Arc of the United States. The Arc of Durham members were advocates for their children and many were very involved in social and civic groups, particularly Civitan Clubs. Over the next twenty years, The Arc was instrumental in raising public awareness, fundraising, improving educational supports (including the purchase of accessible buses), and in developing a network of supporters and donors. By the early 1980s, the first part-time Executive Director was hired and in her role encouraged more parent participation and ownership of The Arc. Today, the agency supports over 400 people annually with direct supports and linkages to services. An additional 200-300 people participate in special events, parent group meetings, and social and recreational activities.
The Arc moves into the future with a commitment to help Durham become a better place for ALL citizens. All people have gifts and value to share with those around them. The Arc helps all of us to find the right place to give our gifts and to share the gifts of others.
What Is a Developmental Disability?
In most cases, a developmental disability is a severe, chronic disability that can be attributed to a mental or physical impairment (or both) that began before age 22. The disability must also result in substantial functional limitations in three or more of the following major life activities:
- Self care
- Receptive and expressive language
- Learning
- Ability to move
- Self-direction/motivation
- Capacity for independence
- Economic self-sufficiency
Examples of developmental disabilities include: Down Syndrome; Spina Bifida; Autism; Mental Retardation; Fragile X Syndrome; Cerebral Palsy; Genetic Disorders.
What Arc Does
The Arc is the largest community-based organization advocating for and serving people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families within the United States. We are a national organization with nearly 700 state and local chapters. By working with its federation of state and local chapters, the Arc has created an impressive network of human service agencies. We want to ensure that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families have the strongest civil rights advocates promoting and protecting their needs at all levels.
No government program can help families become self-reliant, contributing members of their communities unless it is built on a recognition of the power of this bone-deep longing for freedom, self-respect, hope and the chance to make an important contribution. All along the eastern seaboard of the US we have local chapters. For instance if you live in the Delaware / Maryland areas we have chapters. Our Family Support services are flexible and responsive to what a family needs, when they need it. If a family living in the Baltimore area requires help relocating, we can assist in finding Baltimore movers who could assist them whether the move is just across the city, the state or even long distance. Finding a local moving company that has a good reputation and the experience to make the move as smooth as possible is important for all residential moves. However for families with intellectual and developmental disabled children it can be even more difficult. Transitions to new situations can be quite unsettling. Moving can be especially problematical. We have found that working with reputable local moving companies whose attention to detail and personalized service goes into every move they perform can make a difference. This is just one small example of the type of help local state chapters of The Arc provide in addition to the array of programs, resources and other direct services.
Family Support:
The Arc of Durham's Family Support Services help families and individuals with developmental disabilities develop new skills, access information, obtain direct services and supports, learn about innovative programs, receive financial support and build relationships that greatly impact their lives. By leveraging community programs and linking families to an array of existing resources, The Arc and families are together creating systems of support that meet individualized needs.
First in Families
First In Families of Durham is part of a state-wide initiative that seeks to help people with developmental disabilities and their families live as active members of their communities. The local project is housed at The Arc of Durham County.
Respite care gives relief to family caregivers of individuals with developmental disabilities to reduce stress and allow time for themselves, other family members or whatever they need to "get a break". Benefits include:
- Relief of stress on family caregivers
- Enhancing family relationships
- Time for personal, social and recreational interests
- Access to appropriate physical care, developmental and recreational activities, and community resources
Common Ground:
Common Ground is a group of adults interested in self-advocacy for people with developmental disabilities. Members strive to be better self-advocates, learn their rights and responsibilities as citizens, and enjoy social activities and community outings.
Parent Link Up:
Parent Link-Up is an opportunity for parents and adult family members of people with developmental disabilities to have some respite from daily caregiving and seek support from their peers. We meet on the fifth Tuesday of the month (about 4 times per year) for dinner and lively conversation.
The sibling group began several years ago at the request of four families, two of whom were Arc members. Siblings of children with developmental disabilities have an opportunity to confidentially express what it is like to have a sister or brother with special needs. It has evolved into a great experience for the young participants, most of whom are quite anxious for the "next sibling group".
Sibshops is currently on hiatus; please check back to find out when we will resume
Public Advocacy and Community Education (P.A.C.E.):
In an effort to build awareness and educate the community about what people with developmental disabilities and their families want and need to succeed, The Arc of Durham advocates at the local and state levels to ensure fair and appropriate representation on public policy issues. Additionally, The Arc advocates on behalf of individuals and families, shares information, makes referrals to supports and services in our community, and conducts parent education programs.
Family Wish List:
Requests for assistance by families that we support often include clothing and household items. First In Families of Durham welcomes your donations, especially:
- Groceries (non-perishable) or grocery gift cards
- Gas gift cards
- Diapers (infant and adult)
- Clothing of all sizes
- Computers/technology in usable condition
- Furniture (especially beds and mattresses)
- Fans and A/C units; Portable heaters
- Lamps
Our storage space is extremely limited; please call ahead if you have large items!
Information and Referrals:
The Arc of Durham and First in Families maintain a comprehensive guide to resources in the community for individuals and families. Our in-office binders provide detailed information and copies of brochures from many of these resources; feel free to call and set up a time to go through these books in person. The resource guide's index is available online.

Interesting. Now i feel better that I dont have a tablet..
ReadWriteShared publicly -
New research shows that tablet owners are more likely to be older - and consumers (not producers) of content. http://rww.to/OmeSCa
Tablets did not even exist two years ago and at $500 one, it is more likely richer (so statistically older) people can afford it. Sounds like it is too early to make conclusions.

From the Principal
Welcome back to term 2 at Hurstbridge Primary School. I am excited to be your school principal for the next two terms. As mentioned in my letter last week, my door is always open, feel free to call in and say hello. I welcome your opinions and feedback about our school.
Fete and Fun Run
What a great day Sunday was! Thank you to everyone who brought their families along to our fete and fun run. We had 319 people cross the finish line in the fun run, and lots more people attending our fete. An event like this would not have been possible without the hard work of many dedicated people.
I would like to thank the Fun Run Committee; Martin Ward, Rebecca Mason, Carrie Spriggs and Suzanne Scott for all their hard work leading up to and on Sunday. Also to the Parents' Group for their swift work organising a fete on short notice after we had to postpone last term! A big thank you to all the staff and parents who helped out on the day as well.
Over the holidays we started our foot paths near the front of the school, these paths were finished last weekend. I am sure you will agree they look great and will make it much easier to walk from the loop before and after school. The money Parents' Group raised last year along with this year's fete money has been used to pay for this work. We will be having a working bee soon, part of this will involve spreading soil and trying to grow some grass around the area.
100 Year Celebrations
Did you know that this year our school turns 100 years old! We need to organise a party! Next Friday, 29th of April we are having a meeting for anyone who is interested in helping us organise our centenary celebrations. If you are interested, please join me for a coffee after school drop off in the Library.
Prep School Uniform Support
Recently the Victorian Government has offered support for students start-ing Prep by providing them with a winter uniform allowance. If you have a child in prep and receive the Camps, Sports and Excursion Fund (CSEF) you will qualify.
If you are not sure if you qualify under this fund please check the following web site – www.education.vic.gov.au/csef If you do qualify please contact me to arrange your uniform.
School Council
On Tuesday night our new school council met for the first time. I would like to congratulate Ivan Carter on becoming President and Penni Russon for her position as Vice President. I am looking forward to working with council this year.
Our school council is responsible for making many decisions as to the run-ning and operations of our school, its great to have parental input and ad-vice.
