An Equilibrium-Adjustment Theory of the Fourth Amendment
Orin S. Kerr
The George Washington University Law School
October 29, 2011
125 Harvard Law Review 476 (2011).
GWU Law School Public Law Research Paper No. 524
Fourth Amendment law is often considered a theoretical embarrassment. The law consists of dozens of rules for very specific situations that seem to lack a coherent explanation. Constitutional protection varies dramatically based on seemingly arcane distinctions.
This Article introduces a new theory that explains and justifies both the structure and content of Fourth Amendment rules: The theory of equilibrium-adjustment. The theory of equilibrium-adjustment posits that the Supreme Court adjusts the scope of protection in response to new facts in order to restore the status quo level of protection. When changing technology or social practice expands government power, the Supreme Court tightens Fourth Amendment protection; when it threatens government power, the Supreme Court loosens constitutional protection. Existing Fourth Amendment law therefore reflects many decades of equilibrium-adjustment as facts change. This simple argument explains a wide range of puzzling Fourth Amendment doctrines including the automobile exception; rules on using sense-enhancing devices; the decline of the "mere evidence" rule; how the Fourth Amendment applies to the telephone network; undercover investigations; the law of aerial surveillance; rules for subpoenas; and the special Fourth Amendment protection for the home.
The Article then offers a normative defense of equilibrium-adjustment. Equilibrium-adjustment maintains interpretive fidelity while permitting Fourth Amendment law to respond to changing facts. Its wide appeal and focus on deviations from the status quo facilitates coherent decisionmaking amidst empirical uncertainty and yet also gives Fourth Amendment law significant stability. The Article concludes by arguing that judicial delay is an important precondition to successful equilibrium-adjustment.

Clunky Shoe
"The straps on the shoe weren't sturdy enough to keep my foot from flopping around. The heel and lack of strap support made the shoe very clunky and strange to walk in. Had to return :("

Buy these!
"Just received my DSW package and these sandals were the first I tried on ... LOVE THEM! Ordered them in the beige color and they look and feel fantastic. The cork makes seems to make them extra comfy and they fit beautifully. Immediately went back on line to order them in the same size in black. Sexy, comfortable, reasonably priced -- what more could you ask for in a shoe?"

Breathtaking sandals
"These look even more magnificent up close and look so sexy, I can't even tell you. I have a wide foot but the medium worked just fine for me. The ankle strap actually hits a bit above the ankle so it holds your leg while your foots pivots during walking, which is a weird feeling but not painful. Most sandals have their ankle strap below or AT the ankle. Really cool, but does take some getting used to. Oh and they are crazy comfortable! Great buy overall."

New favorites!
"I knew these shoes would be amazing as soon as I saw the image online! When I received- I wasn't disappointed. They fit perfectly and are super comfortable! The only place that bothered me slightly was the buckle as it hit exactly on my ankle bone. After wearing them a couple times, this no longer occurred. I have gotten many compliments on these :)"

Anyways, I don't feel that Luffy should die, I just don't like how every main hero character that has been produced in Japanese media in the past twenty years or more is based around the character from a legend. Although look how many American super heroes are based around Jesus.
Remember that Optimus Prime died for our sins.
Eh, whatever, I added plus two for my flame shields for a reason. At least we are keeping nice and logical about this discussion and not simply flaming each other for our comments.

Fly-half Andy Goode returns for Worcester as they host Aviva Premiership champions Saracens at Sixways Stadium on Friday.
Fly-half Andy Goode returns for Worcester Warriors as they host Aviva Premiership champions Saracens at Sixways on Friday.
Goode is one of four changes made by Head Coach Richard Hill as the Warriors look to build on an impressive start to 2012 on home soil.
Errie Claassens is named at full-back while Chris Pennell moves to wing with Marcel Garvey ruled out. Shaun Perry will again captain the team from scrum-half.
"We will be without Marcel as he is still suffering from concussion sustained against Harlequins," said Hill.
"First and foremost is the welfare of our players and Marcel will be given as much time as he needs to make a full recovery. This will mean a reshuffle in the back line."
Two changes in the pack see Aleki Lutui named at hooker while lock Chris Jones is named in the second-row alongside James Percival.
"Our last four league fixtures have seen us play three away from Sixways and so we always knew it was going to be a difficult period. However, the team has responded magnificently," added Hill.
"We now enter a series of four games out of six at home and so this is the time to press on.
"Although Saracens are missing players on international duty, they still possess a powerful squad and many big performers. It's an exciting challenge for the Warriors."
Meanwhile, full-back Alex Goode will make his 100th appearance for Saracens.
In team news ahead of the game, Director of Rugby Mark McCall makes five changes to his starting line-up.
In the forwards, number eight Ernst Joubert returns from injury to captain the side with second-row Hugh Vyvyan also starting and Will Fraser coming into the back-row.
In the backs, Michael Tagicakibau takes up a spot on the wing while centre Joel Tomkins will make his first start in the Aviva Premiership.
On the bench, prop Petrus du Plessis returns while second-row Eoin Sheriff is in line to make his Aviva Premiership debut.
Scrum-half Peter Stringer returns while wings Joe Maddock and James Short are also named among the replacements.
Form: Worcester Warriors have slipped to successive narrow defeats in Aviva Premiership Rugby – against Sale and Harlequins. The Warriors' only loss at Sixways in their last six encounters in all competitions was 13-32 to Leicester on 27 December. Saracens' eleven match unbeaten run ended on Sunday with their loss to Leicester by the smallest margin possible. Sarries have won five in a row away from home since their 8-30 reversal to the Saints at Franklin's Gardens on 26 November. Worcester have not beaten Saracens since their 22-8 victory at Sixways on 4 April 2009 – their only win over Sarries since 2007. The Warriors' solitary victory at Vicarage Road was 20-17 on 26 November 2006.
The teams:
Worcester Warriors: 15 Errie Claassens, 14 Chris Pennell, 13 Alex Grove, 12 Dale Rasmussen, 11 Miles Benjamin, 10 Andy Goode, 9 Shaun Perry (c), 8 Blair Cowan, 7 Jake Abbott, 6 Sam Betty, 5 Chris Jones, 4 James Percival, 3 Tevita Taumoepeau, 2 Aleki Lutui, 1 Matt Mullan.
Replacements: 16 Ed Shervington, 17 George Porter, 18 Oliver Tomaszczyk, 19 Craig Gillies, 20 Matt Kvesic, 21 Jonny Arr, 22 Danny Gray, 23 Ravai Fatiaki.
Saracens: 15 Alex Goode, 14 Michael Tagicakibau, 13 Joel Tomkins, 12 Adam Powell, 11 Chris Wyles, 10 Nils Mordt, 9 Neil de Kock, 8 Ernst Joubert (c), 7 Andy Saull, 6 Will Fraser, 5 Hugh Vyvyan, 4 George Kruis, 3 Carlos Nieto, 2 Schalk Brits, 1 John Smit.
Replacements: 16 Jamie George, 17 Rhys Gill, 18 Petrus du Plessis, 19 Eoin Sheriff, 20 Jackson Wray, 21 Peter Stringer, 22 Joe Maddock, 23 James Short.

Excerpts from the Address of Pope Francis to the Bishops of Brazil, July 2013
Dear brothers, the results of our pastoral work do not depend on a wealth of resources, but on the creativity of love. To be sure, perseverance, effort, hard work, planning and organization all have their place, but first and foremost we need to realize that the Church's power does not reside in herself; it is hidden in the deep waters of God, into which she is called to cast her nets.
Another lesson which the Church must constantly recall is that she cannot leave simplicity behind; otherwise she forgets how to speak the language of Mystery. Not only does she herself remain outside the door of the mystery, but she proves incapable of approaching those who look to the Church for something which they themselves cannot provide, namely, God himself. At times we lose people because they don't understand what we are saying, because we have forgotten the language of simplicity and import an intellectualism foreign to our people. Without the grammar of simplicity, the Church loses the very conditions which make it possible "to fish" for God in the deep waters of his Mystery.
Let us read once again, in this light, the story of Emmaus (cf. Lk 24:13-15). The two disciples have left Jerusalem. They are leaving behind the "nakedness" of God. They are scandalized by the failure of the Messiah in whom they had hoped and who now appeared utterly vanquished, humiliated, even after the third day (vv. 17-21). Here we have to face the difficult mystery of those people who leave the Church, who, under the illusion of alternative ideas, now think that the Church – their Jerusalem – can no longer offer them anything meaningful and important. So they set off on the road alone, with their disappointment.
Perhaps the Church appeared too weak, perhaps too distant from their needs, perhaps too poor to respond to their concerns, perhaps too cold, perhaps too caught up with itself, perhaps a prisoner of its own rigid formulas, perhaps the world seems to have made the Church a relic of the past, unfit for new questions; perhaps the Church could speak to people in their infancy but not to those come of age. It is a fact that nowadays there are many people like the two disciples of Emmaus; not only those looking for answers in the new religious groups that are sprouting up, but also those who already seem godless, both in theory and in practice. Faced with this situation, what are we to do?
We need a Church unafraid of going forth into their night. We need a Church capable of meeting them on their way. We need a Church capable of entering into their conversation. We need a Church able to dialogue with those disciples who, having left Jerusalem behind, are wandering aimlessly, alone, with their own disappointment, disillusioned by a Christianity now considered barren, fruitless soil, incapable of generating meaning.
Today, we need a Church capable of walking at people's side, of doing more than simply listening to them; a Church which accompanies them on their journey; a Church able to make sense of the "night" contained in the flight of so many of our brothers and sisters from Jerusalem; a Church which realizes that the reasons why people leave also contain reasons why they can eventually return. But we need to know how to interpret, with courage, the larger picture.
I would like all of us to ask ourselves today: are we still a Church capable of warming hearts? A Church capable of leading people back to Jerusalem? Of bringing them home? Jerusalem is where our roots are: Scripture, catechesis, sacraments, community, friendship with the Lord, Mary and the apostles… Are we still able to speak of these roots in a way that will revive a sense of wonder at their beauty?
People today are attracted by things that are faster and faster: rapid Internet connections, speedy cars and planes, instant relationships. But at the same time we see a desperate need for calmness, I would even say slowness. Is the Church still able to move slowly: to take the time to listen, to have the patience to mend and reassemble? Or is the Church herself caught up in the frantic pursuit of efficiency?
Dear brothers, let us recover the calm to be able to walk at the same pace as our pilgrims, keeping alongside them, remaining close to them, enabling them to speak of the disappointments present in their hearts and to let us address them. They want to forget Jerusalem, where they have their sources, but eventually they will experience thirst. We need a Church capable of accompanying them on the road back to Jerusalem! A Church capable of helping them to rediscover the glorious and joyful things that are spoken of Jerusalem, and to understand that she is my Mother, our Mother, and that we are not orphans! We were born in her. Where is our Jerusalem, where were we born? In Baptism, in the first encounter of love, in our calling, in vocation. We need a Church capable of restoring citizenship to her many children who are journeying, as it were, in an exodus."

HELPER- Loving mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin and friend, Maria Celina (Sally) Montoya, age 82, passed away Nov. 30, 2009 at her daughters home surrounded by her loving family. Celina was born to Celso and Matilda Valdez Gutierrez on Oct. 8, 1927 in McPhee, Colo.

The Northwell Health System, Inc. (the "System") and each of its owned or sponsored Article 28 not-for-profit corporations (each a "Provider") are required by law to protect the privacy of health information that may reveal your identity ("Protected Health Information" or "PHI"), and to provide you with a copy of this Notice, which describes the health information privacy practices of the Provider (including its medical staff, employees, trainees, students, and volunteers).
When the Provider uses or discloses PHI it is required to abide by this Notice (or amended Notice in effect at the time of the use or disclosure of PHI).
You may obtain additional copies of this Notice by accessing the Northwell Health System's website at Northshorelij.com, calling the System's Corporate Privacy Officer at (516) 465-8097 or asking the registrar/receptionist for one at the time of your next visit.
This Notice of our privacy practices explains:
If you have questions about this document or any other questions regarding the privacy of your medical information, please call the Northwell Health System, Inc. Office of Corporate Compliance at 516-465-8097.
The System and its Providers comprise an Organized Health Care Arrangement ("OHCA") and will share your health information with each other, as necessary, to carry out treatment, payment, or health care operations relating to the OHCA. The OHCA consists of the following health care entities:
The Provider provides health care to patients jointly with physicians and other health care professionals and organizations. The privacy practices described in this notice will be followed by:
The Provider is committed to protecting the privacy of information gathered about you while providing health-related services. This includes any information that may identify you in connection with your health care. Some examples of PHI are:
Treatment, Payment And Health Care Operations
The Provider and its medical staff, other health care professionals and professional trainees may use your PHI or share it with others to the extent that such information is necessary in order to treat your medical condition, obtain payment for that treatment, and carry out the Provider's normal health care operations. Your PHI may also be shared with affiliated Providers and other health care providers so that they may jointly perform certain treatment, payment activities and health care operations along with the Provider. It is the Provider's practice to request your written consent for disclosures to insurance companies that are responsible for your Provider bill and post-discharge health care providers. Subject to certain exceptions, access, use or disdosure of your PHI will be limited to a "Limited Data Set" or, if necessary, the minimum amount of information necessary to accomplish the purpose of a particular use, disdosure or request within the scope of an individual's employment. The minimum necessary standard does not apply in certain circumstances, such as a disclosure for treatment purposes or to you, the patient. Below are further examples of how your information may be used without your specific authorization.
Treatment. The Provider may share your PHI with caregivers at the Provider who are involved in your care, and they may in turn use that information or share it with others outside the Provider in order to diagnose or treat you. In addition, with your consent the Provider may share your PHI with health care practitioners or facilities that need to know with respect to your treatment outside of the Provider. The Provider also may contact you to provide you with appointment reminders or information about treatment alternatives or other health care related benefits or services, which may be of interest to you. While the Provider will take reasonable steps to safeguard the privacy of your PHI, certain disclosures of your PHI may occur during or as an unavoidable result of our otherwise permissible uses or disclosures of your PHI. For example, during the course of a treatment session other patients in the treatment area may see or overhear discussion of your PHI. These "incidental disclosure" are permissible.
Communication Barriers. The Provider may use and disclose your health information if it is unable to obtain your consent because of substantial communication barriers, and believes you would want the Provider to treat you if it could communicate with you.
Payment. The Provider may use your PHI or share it with others so that it can obtain payment for health care services the Provider provides to you. For example, the Provider may share information about you with your health insurance company in order to obtain reimbursement after you have been treated. The Provider might also need to inform your health insurance company about your health condition in order to obtain pre-approval for your treatment, such as admission to the Provider for a particular type of surgery. In addition, the Provider may share your PHI with other health care providers so that they can obtain payment for services they provide to you.
Health Care Operations. The Provider may use or disclose your PHI in order to conduct its health care operations, which include internal administration and planning and various activities that improve the quality and cost effectiveness of the care that the Provider delivers to you. For example, the Provider may use your PHI to evaluate the quality and competence of its physicians, nurses and other health care workers. The Provider may also use your PHI to educate students and trainees in health related professions. Other examples of health care operations include legal, accounting and transcription services which may be performed through contracts with outside organizations designated as Business Associates. All such contracts will include provisions that the Business Associate also protects the privacy of your PHI. In addition, the Provider may share your health information with other health care providers who have provided services to you in order for them to conduct certain business activities such as activities designed to improve the quality of care or reduce health care costs, to conduct clinical training programs, and to evaluate the experience and performance of its medical staff.

If so, the Provider may provide you with a summary of the information instead; or if the Provider has reason to deny only part of your request the Provider will provide you access or copies of the other parts of the record. The Provider will provide a written notice that explains its reasons for providing only a summary or limited portions of the records requested, and a description of the process to have this determination reviewed. The notice will also include information on how to file a complaint about these issues with the Provider or with the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

You have the right to request an amendment for as long as the information is kept in Provider records.

Your request should include (1) the information you would like to limit; (2) how you would like to limit the use of the information; and (3) to whom you would like the limits to apply.
The Provider is not required to agree to your request for a restriction, unless the request for restriction is for payment purposes and you have paid for the provided services out of pocket in full, unless the disclosure is otherwise required by law. However, if the Provider does agree, the Provider will be bound by its agreement unless the information is needed to provide you with emergency treatment or comply with the law. Once the Provider has agreed to a restriction, you have the right to revoke the restriction at any time. Under some circumstances, the Provider will also have the right to revoke the restriction as long as the Provider notifies you before doing so; in other cases, the Provider will need your permission before the Provider can revoke the restriction.

Posted on 08/23/2003 6:23:59 PM PDT by nwrep
MLK Rally marked by Bush, Ashcroft bashing & absence of US flags; Speaker Praises Mugabe
The rally on the US Capitol today to mark the 40th anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech was broadcast live on C-SPAN. The event was attended by Democratic presidential contenders Howard Dean, Carol Moseley Braun and Al Sharpton. The following are my personal observations, facts hidden from you by puff-pieces appearing on the wire services.
The most stunning aspect of this rally was the almost complete, seemingly choreographed absence of the Old Glory throughout the vast crowd, estimated by organizers to number 50,000. The fact that not a single black person thought it proper to show appreciation to a country that freed his forefathers from the clutches of slavery by proudly flying her flag, seemed almost offensive to me. Seen among the crowd were various pro-Palestinian banners and others denigrating America, one calling it "The greatest purveyor of violence in the world".
The ceremony started with various songs and religious intonations, including one involving a beer bottle and a potted plant by a so-called "African" leader representing an "African religion", but the singing of the Star Spangled Banner was, alas, not deemed worthy of the effort by the organizers. I found this to be extraordinarily ungrateful, as if they were going out of their way to avoid any association with American symbols.
What followed this remarkable opening was a long flow of speaker after speaker, spewing anti-Bush, anti-Ashcroft and sometimes, anti-American screed. First up was Martin Luther King III, and he set the tone for the afternoon's speeches by attacking the war on Iraq and Afghanistan, and blaming the Bush administration and the US military for all ills under the sun. He listed "homophobia" as one of the greatest contemporary evils facing mankind.
Following him were an assortment of speakers sympathizing with the "Palestinian cause", including terrorist appeaser James Zogby, President of the Arab American Institute, and brother of the allegedly independent pollster John Zogby. Racism, discrimination and denial of civil rights were some of the things blamed by these individuals on the Bush administration. Ashcroft came in for several rounds of liberal criticism, particularly from Zogby and a young Arab woman dressed in a head-scarf, who levelled the usual charges against the administration, unhappy at our success in the war on terror.
The "Rev." Al Sharpton spoke and reeled off whatever DNC talking points might have been missed by the previous speakers, and he was followed by the "Rev." Jesse Jackson.
Following his rather long and boring speech, Jackson started soliciting donations, which were collected by the volunteers in what looked like paint buckets with slits. Jackson finished off with the obligatory phony prayer, which was well received by both the blacks and the guilty white liberals in the audience.
Rounding off this round of speakers dissociating themselves from the founding ideals of our Republic as well as Dr. King's color-blind vision were Kim Gandy, the NOW chief, and a representative of the National Gay and Lesbian Alliance. Only Corretta Scott King and Rep. John Lewis seemed to depart from the script which had turned this event into a defacto blame America outing.
As the afternoon started to wear, the crowd got restless and started to leave. The dark, depressing vision of America highlighted by the speakers did not help.
Towards the end, someone calling himself Obi Egbuna of the Pan-African Liberation Organization took the stand. What followed was virulent anti-western and anti-American rantings that even I was not prepared for. This gentleman, if you could call him that, placed the blame of all the problems facing the continent of Africa on the shoulders of President Bush.
Apparently in an effort to establish his credentials as even more radical than the previous speakers, he heaped lavish praise on Robert Mugabe for "reclaiming African lands from the colonialists", never mind the fact that this despicable tyrant has turned a once prosperous country into an ecological disaster by the systematic starvation of this people, while forcefully stealing farms from white farmers who had owned them for generations. In the twisted mind of this speaker, Mugabe was an example worth emulating across the continent.
The rally almost fizzled towards the end, as the dignitaries on stage started leaving in the middle of the speeches, walking past hundreds of empty chairs in the stands, a scene perfectly captured by C-SPAN.
This event raised a lot of questions in my mind: Why the almost enforced absence of US flags? Why no singing of the Star Spangled Banner? Why no mention of the greatness of America? Why no invitee from the right of the political spectrum? Why was this event not billed as a DNC rally, even though it appeared to be little more than that? Why the emphasis on "hip-hop", gay rights and Palestinian Liberation at a rally commemorating MLK's speech? What do these things have to do with civil rights, which, at this point in time, should be a non-issue?
Why does an Arab woman in a headscarf think she has the right to tell Americans that we have "a long way to go in our struggle for freedoms"? Why did the NAACP invite so many Arabs to speak at this rally? Why were there so many Palestinians at this rally? Why was someone from the more moderate civil rights groups (such as the Congress for Racial Equality) not invited to speak? And lastly, why the non-coverage by the media, with the notable exception of C-SPAN?
Just wondering.
By the way, what you described sounded rather like a movement in decay, with the leadership putting on a show and the followership, less than edified by the spectacle, drifting away. Sounds like the leadership of this shindig is getting out of touch with the people even on the Left, and sinking into Leftist-internationalist totalitarianism.
These people have killed it.
Aren't these the guys whose slogan at home is "one settler, one bullet"? He came to the wrong damn country to utter that line, if he did -- we be jus' full up wid white settlers here, homes! And most of them have guns!
The way I heard it was, Dornan let his fences break down with the heavily Republican-voting Chinese-American community in his district, who didn't turn out the way they had in the past, allowing Sanchez to squeak by him. (And of course, there's the immigration thing -- but that wouldn't have mattered if he'd taken care of his base, so "they" said afterward.)
He is a direct descendant of Lincoln in fulfilling this nations promise. Our beacon of freedom shines brighter to the world because of him.
The left cannot countenance the fact the MLK was, ultimately, a product of America and his message: so uniquely American.
Why of coarse! Africa was a paradise til Bush got in office!
Praising Mugabe is like praising Hitler. Don't these people realize that Mugabe's actions are starving millions of blacks. These people just aren't evil, they're stupid, very stupid. A dangerous combination.
Next whistle-stop for the political kamikaze Dean: The Al Qaeda Rally in Baghdad.
Was a change in his look noted?
Are these people in a trance? I.Q. challenged? Or just fanatical?
Mugabe Democrat Bump
Not a single racists Democrat even SHOWED UP for Ms. Mosley Brauns' coming out rally in Chicago. NOW couldn't even get *one* racists democrat to even show up ?
democrats need to look within for the solution.
It's time the DNC FOLLOWED THE LEAD of the Republican party and give African Americans positions of *real power* in the executive branch.
If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
I didn't see Jesse Jackson put any money in the bucket when he was goading the dignitaries there to dig deep 'for the cause'.
BTW, brother Malcom X was not mentioned by Rev. Jackson when he invoked the names of the dearly departed at the commencement of his shakedown.
Hmpf. And Arabs bleating about discrimination too. I just had an insight as to why the crowd began to drift away.
They can read the handwriting on the wall. Either gays or Arabs are going to be elevated to Oppressed Victim Class Numero Uno in the coming election, and blacks are gonna get screwed again...
Doesn't look like 50,000 by these pictures.
This event raised a lot of questions in my mind: Why the almost enforced absence of US flags? Why no singing of the Star Spangled Banner? Why no mention of the greatness of America? Why no invitee from the right of the political spectrum? Why was this event not billed as a DNC rally, even though it appeared to be little more than that? Why the emphasis on "hip-hop", gay rights and Palestinian Liberation at a rally commemorating MLK's speech? What do these things have to do with civil rights, which, at this point in time, should be a non-issue?
Because the real MLK had Republican values. They can't acknowledge him, and still get the uninformed to vote for Marx.
But in the immortal words of Bones McCoy: "He's dead, Jim."
Maybe they went there to honor MLK. It didn't happen. I'd leave too.
Why should we care?? Because these anti-American, anti-decency anarchists have slandered and demonized MY country and MY countrymen, while spitting and defecating on the legacy and graves of all who have fallen FOR this America.
Reason enough?
These people have killed it.
I'm afraid you are right. I remember seeing the 30th anniversary of the "I Have A Dream" speech. I expected the event would attract a few of the far left groups out to look for an excuse to make noise, but I figured most of the people would be there to have a respectful celebration of the Civil Rights movement. I was wrong.
There was no spirit of reverence or rememberance during the 1993 event -- at lest not that I could detect from watching the network news. The whole event had been taken over by a mixture of radical environmentalists and militant homosexuals. I swear that one news report I saw focused on a large group of leather fetish freaks cavorting about -- men wearing weird S&M black leather outfits. No doubt they carried signs demanding society show them respect, as they whipped one-another on the rear-end. It all looked like "Carnival" as organized by gay communist leather fetish freaks (yuck). I swear I am not making this up -- my imagination is not vivid enough to make something like that up, and what imagination I do have is not spent thinking about leather, or about men -- and certainly not about men in our out of leather! I can joke about it a little, but it really was horrible. When I saw the mockery they made of Dr. King and the Civil Rights movement, I was very angry and sickened. To me it felt like they were assassinating Dr. King all over again -- I don't know how else to describe it.
There could not be a greater contrast with the 1963 event -- The next time you see a tape of Dr. King giving the "I Have A Dream" speech, look at the crowd all around him. It shows thousands and thousands of people, all well-behaved and most of the people are wearing their best clothes -- as if they were going to church or to a business meeting. The people who witnessed the "I Have A Dream" speech in 1963 and the people who were using the 30th anniversary as an excuse to party seem to be from different planets. It is worthwhile to beg, borrow, or steal a video recording of the "I Have A Dream" speech -- you will witness one of the greatest American speeches of the 20th Century. It is impossible for me to reconcile that with some of the scenes I saw in news reports of the 1993 celebrations. The 1993 event looked like something out of a nightmare of a mad man.

Reimer starts tonight
Steve Dangle
January 09 2014 11:33AM
Look at who's getting a start between the pipes.
James Reimer is getting the starter against Carolina tonight, and in all likelihood, Jonathan Bernier will be starting against the Washington Capitals the following night on Friday. What does that mean?
It means James Reimer play some of the best hockey of his life. That, or he stays the backup.
People jumped all over Darren Dreger this morning for calling James Reimer a backup, but at the moment that's what he is, is he not?
Bernier has gotten most of the starts recently, and Reimer is getting Carolina in a back-to-back situation where the other team is Washington. They're giving Reimer the "lesser" of the two teams, on paper at least. He's the backup. For now.
But this is the NHL. Jobs are won and lost. If Bernier continues to struggle (which no Leafs fan should be cheering for, by the way), and Reimer succeeds, Carlyle would be nuts to keep Reimer riding the pine. Then again...
Isn't this weird? Who would have thought that this time last year James Reimer starting a game would be noteworthy?
We're all rooting for you Reimer!
January 09 2014, 12:00PM
I'm happy that Reimer finally gets a start.
Not only does he have better stats then Bernier but he single handedly carried the leafs into the playoffs last year. Bernier hasn't shown he can carry a team but has poor leadership skills and intangibles compared to Reimer. This is the point where Reimer walks away with the starting role.
Reimer is more susceptible to top corner shots, but he usually covers the bottom of the net just as well as or better than Bernier.
Carlyle has shown his pre-conceived personality in making personnel decisions from MacArthur to Grabovski to Liles. Al of them wrong. It's as if he has no clue how to coach skilled players.
If you need any more evidence, just see how Kadri and Raymond and Lupul have regressed under his tutelage.
Please make a case against this opinion.
Go Carlyle Go.
"But this is the NHL. Jobs are won and lost. If Bernier continues to struggle (which no Leafs fan should be cheering for, by the way), and Reimer succeeds, Carlyle would be nuts to keep Reimer riding the pine. Then again..."
Bernier would have to play poorly for the next 3 months for them to even consider making it a 50/50 jobshare, let alone giving Reimer the 1A job. They've made it clear from the beginning that they wanted Bernier to succeed regardless of how Reimer plays.
If their performance earned them minutes, as the coaches claim, then Bernier and Reimer would be switching every game. Statistically there's little to no difference between the two.

Oh for the love of God.....When are you all gonna wake up.....Reimer is the number 1 Goalie,, Take Bernier and feed him to the wolfs and se how he comes out of it...he come as a back up goalie from another team that has not experience working t the NHL level and just like that you give him the reins.. he lost almost many as he's won, he sucks in shoot out's.. he never owns to anything never except that maybe he cost the game...Oh please he deserves to be sitting right where he will be tonight and sit there while Reimer is left to either win or loose 6 games. just like Bernier was given.. than we will see who the real Goalie is for this team...but that wont happen...after all Bernier is the anointed on by Nonis and Randy and God forbid we let nearly 3 million dollars sit on he bench....when the leafs don't make it to the play-offs this year at least your anointed one will can take the fall this time, because with out Reimer at the Helm you don't stand a chance in hell...

After selling off some pieces,(Moulson,Miller,Ott,etc) Reimer will be a Sabre for a 1st, not the Sabre's first but one they trade for, maybe the Isles 1st they got in the Vanak trade. Whatever the deal, Reimer to Buffalo, you heard it here first, probably.
that towel...
just missing one letter.
All I can say is NOT to even mention Brad, Bob or Pat Burns is really very very bad! But anything to do with the leafs is usually that way! They are a losing organization and always will be!! I am almost 47 years old and never have i seen them raise the cup!! lol abosultly embarising!!! And dion phenuf ?? there is a reason he is not on team Canada!! He is brutal not even worth trading! Send him to the minors!!! It will be a long time until a Canadian team wins lord stanley, little own the toronto maple leafs!!!

By PATRICK N. SUNDSTROMEmery
Having read Mr. Wright's scathing critique of my reply, I thought perhaps I would be wasting my time in responding again. But then I decided people like Mr. Wright, who have obviously had the benefit of a first rate college indoctrination, not education, need a response.
Liberals like Mr. Wright, love to quote only the parts of the Constitution that serve their purposes. Mr. Wright, while quoting one part of the First Amendment regarding the establishment of religion, forgot to include the phrase, "or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." The phrase "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion" was put there for one purpose. That purpose was to keep the government from establishing a state religion, which the founders were trying to escape when the left England and Europe.
It was not intended to keep religious symbols from being displayed in public or to keep a high school valedictorian from mentioning Jesus in his commencement address, which the ACLU loves to sue over. People like Mr. Wright ignore the original intent of the framers and seem eager to give a bunch of lawyers in black robes the final say on all of our legal rights.
Mr. Wright writes he is no liberal. That's fine except I can't remember a conservative comparing President Bush to Hitler as Mr. Wright did in his response. Mr. Wright goes on and on with his claims of how the president is damaging the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Well, I would like to provide Mr. Wright and your readers with a quick history lesson. During World War II, President Roosevelt ordered the detention of more than 50,000 Americans of Japanese descent who had done nothing wrong, every single piece of mail going in and out of the country during the war was opened and read by the government and virtually everything anyone did that was suspicious was investigated and acted on.
Our Constitution and Bill of Rights survived despite all of this. The reason it survived was because back then America knew how to fight a war and understood what protecting the country meant. People like Mr. Wright remained silent because they understood what the consequences of losing the war were. They also knew the government would not tolerate their cowardice and sedition as it does now.
As for Mr. Wrights concern over the poor terrorists at Gitmo and his comparing them to Timothy McVeigh, I must again reiterate that unlike Timothy McVeigh, the terrorists are not American citizens and are not afforded the Constitutional protection he was. That is a desperately inadequate comparison.
In closing, I would like to remind Mr. Wright and your readers who don't already get it that the enemy is Islamic Fascism, not George W. Bush.
