Exploration Yields Great Americans, Great American Beards
At the 207th Street station, disembark and face east across the Harlem River toward the Bronx. There, atop heights of patchwork grays and browns, an unexpected cluster of collegiate buildings proudly overlooks the river. Cross the river and follow Fordham Road to Hampden Place. Near the street's end, ascend a ramshackle stone staircase through the University Woods. There, at the top of the crumbling stairway, lies the base of the domed neoclassical building that can be seen from the elevated tracks in Manhattan. The gates to one of New York's long forgotten monuments rest just beyond there, near the top of the hill. Today, the sign at the campus entrance at University Heights reads Bronx Community College, but until 1973, the handsome complex designed by Stanford White housed none other than New York University.
Vines: Priorities change for Strader
State Rep. Parkey Strader said battling liver cancer has given him a change in priorities, and "you will not see Parkey on the ballot again." The Republican who represents the 14th District in northwest Knox County disclosed last week that he will not seek re-election after two terms. He previously served as property assessor, first getting elected in 1972 and serving until 2000. He then became chief deputy in the assessor's office. Strader was diagnosed with cancer on July 5, 2006. A doctor at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston told him he could expect to live 13 months. It's now going on almost 1 1/2 years, he said. He's had multiple surgeries and other treatment. "Prayers do work," he said. Strader announced he is resigning as chief deputy to Knox County Property Assessor John Whitehead effective Dec.
Spears, Ledger shouldn't be laughed at now
Celebrities spend their time on a pedestal for all to see, a spotlight shining on them so that all the public can study their every move beneath a microscope and criticize them. It's unfair for any human being to have to live with that level of attention on their shoulders, but that's the price paid in return for the fame and the fortune it pays them.With that attention can come a lot of jokes made at their expense. For the most part, I don't think that's a problem. If you can't take a joke or two, how did you even manage the process of working your way up the ladder to the position you're on?It's a tough world, and you have to have a tough skin.However, we should all know that there are limits to when jokes should be made and who they should target.A lot of jokes have been made about Britney Spears, and that's to be expected when someone attacks SUVs with umbrellas, shaves their head and loses a custody battle to Kevin Federline.However, with the news Thursday that Spears had been admitted into the hospital for a "mental evaluation hold," I would hope the jokes cease for a while.
