Highs and lows as Supreme Court justices take marriage issue on a roller coaster ride
The lows included the considerable time justices spent wrangling over whether the Yes on 8 supporters of Proposition 8, California’s ban on same-sex marriage, have proper legal standing to appeal the case. It included Chief Justice John Roberts saying the debate was “just about the label” marriage. And it included Justice Antonin Scalia repeatedly interrupting marriage equality attorney Ted Olson demanding that he identify “when did it become unconstitutional to exclude homosexuals” from marriage. But none of the three attorneys had an easy day.
Chief Justice Roberts tackled Solicitor General Donald Verrilli over his brief to the court, saying it was “inconsistent.” Roberts noted that Verrilli was arguing that the children of same-sex couples do as well as the children of male-female couples, while also arguing that Proposition 8 harms the children of same-sex couples.
“Which is it?” asked Roberts.
Cooper stumbled, too, when Justices Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan challenged his argument that marriage is all about regulating procreation. If so, asked Breyer, why does California allow sterile male-female couples to marry? If so, asked Kagan, why allow people over 55 to get married. (Cooper, to much laughter in the courtroom, offered that it was “very rare that both parties in such marriages are infertile.Shop the latest buy moncler jackets handpicked by a global community of independent trendsetters and stylists.)
Olson, lead attorney with David Boies of the American Foundation for Equal Rights team representing two same-sex couples, got into the most prolonged and exchange of the session when Justice Scalia demanded to know “when” it became unconstitutional to exclude gays from marriage. Scalia repeatedly insisted Olson identify a “specific date in time.” Olson tried several times to answer the question and eventually shot back, “you’ve never required that before.”
“What Ted Olson should have said is, ‘It’s always been a violation of the constitution but, like in many of the other cases [involving rights withheld from other groups], it took a while for us to recognize that this right always existed for these people that we treated differently in the past.”
“I doubt that if any other lawyer had been up there it would have been as heated,” said Kendell, who said the exchange was like “two old friends” having a debate.
But each of the legal activists cautioned that it’s important not to read too much into what the justices said or asked.
“We all know you can’t tell from argument how it’s going to go,” said Evan Wolfson, head of the national Freedom to Marry group. “The argument showed they’re wrestling with a lot of these big questions. I think standing is very much on their mind—very much a live part of the case. But they also were really grappling with the merits.”
Though none mentioned it, it must have been somewhat worrisome for marriage equality supporters to hear Justice Kennedy say, “the problem with this case” is that it is asking the court to “go into uncharted waters.Welcome to Specialized Cycling jersey online!” That mantra was repeated by several other justices during the argument in the case, Hollingsworth v. Perry. Justice Samuel Alito echoed it when he told Solicitor General Donald Verrilli that marriage for same-sex couples is a “very new” phenomenon,Great discounts on our huge range of SAXO BANK Cycling clothing . newer than cell phones.
“You want us to step into” this debate, he said, when “we don’t have the ability to see into the future.We work with all Castelli Cycling computers. Why not leave it to the people?”
But hearing it from Kennedy was even more worrisome because he is considered the most likely fifth vote to provide a majority on one side or the other.

A weekend on Attu: Chapter five
Birders went to Attu at the pleasure of the U.S. government.The canada goose chilliwack parka is a stylish down jacket made in Canada. You needed permission to land there. You needed permission to land and refuel at the halfway point, at the military base on the island of Adak. Putting some rush to an Attu visit in those years was imminent closure of Aleutian military bases. No bases: no fuel, no runway maintenance, no weather information. No trip. The Coast Guard station at Attu eventually was dismantled. People were replaced by technology, satellite navigational aids.
The man who conceived these trips and ran them each year was Larry Balch, a birder from Illinois. I was on his mailing list, receiving a menu of the 1996 trips. Offered were the usual three-week and four-week visits. Of immediate interest to me was the blue-plate special: one week on Attu for two thousand dollars. This was attractive. The three-week package was a five-thousand-dollar buy. Both three weeks and five grand gave me pause. Four weeks? That would have been a sentence, not a trip. I travel poorly at times, developing rough edges when rubbed too often too closely with other travelers. Like another famous island, Alcatraz, there was no escape from Attu. One week sounded just right.
Once signed up, participants received a list of things to bring or not. Proper clothes were important. There was a day on the island when I wore: underwear, long underwear, jeans, wool socks,The moncler jackets for sale was originally developed for scientists working in research facilities in Antarctica. t-shirt, turtleneck sweater, fleece pullover, parka, rain suit, waterproof mittens with glove liners inside, and a wool cap under a waterproof cap.

NJ professor undertakes apparently quixotic quest to become Iran's next president
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. - The man who wants to be the next president of Iran sits in a hotel lobby, steps from his office and thousands of miles away from the country he wants to lead, a distance surpassed only by the hurdles he needs to clear even to land on the ballot.
Hooshang Amirahmadi, a bespectacled professor of public policy at Rutgers University, declared his candidacy for the Iranian presidency last year. He's now well into a quixotic quest that has taken him on fundraising jaunts from New York to California to Dubai and, finally, to Iran next month.
Amirahmadi, 65, has lived in the United States for 40 years, calling it "my country." He married his wife here, and his daughter was raised in New Jersey. But he feels compelled to run for office in Iran to reconcile the conflict he and other Iranian-Americans feel within.
"I feel like, you know, it's not easy to be an Iranian originally and be here, and be a citizen of this country, and see the two sides of you fight each other every day," Amirahmadi said.
Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, was elected to his second term in 2009 in an election that sparked pro-democracy protests. He is not eligible to run again.
Under Ahmadinejad, Iran has increasingly become defiant over its nuclear program, refusing to bow to Western pressure and sanctions. Ahamadinejad has also said that Israel must be "wiped off the map" and has hurled bizarre accusations against Western countries, including that they caused a drought in Iran.
Years ago,The canada goose chilliwack parka is a stylish down jacket made in Canada. Amirahmadi's now 21-year-old daughter asked why the two countries couldn't get along. The professor said he was moved by her question. He founded the non-profit American Iranian Council and started working to smooth diplomatic relations between the countries.
Even though he is already a behind-the-scenes player, Amirahmadi's candidacy is a long shot. He and all Iranian presidential candidates must be approved by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei's Guardian Council ahead of the June election. His American citizenship, along with his beliefs, including freedom of the press and a government based on "rationalism" rather than religion, may immediately disqualify him.
"This is not a serious candidacy at all," said Mehrzad Boroujerdi, a professor of political science at Syracuse University. "He has no chance whatsoever getting an OK from the Guardian Council. Indeed, his American citizenship will disqualify him easily."
Amirahmadi said he has dual American and Iranian citizenship.
The head of the Guardian Council, Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati, said this month that Iranian elections are the "freest in the world" and that candidates will be chosen in accordance with the law.
A U.we offer kinds of duvetica jackets Pro Headphones online .N. investigator said this month that there are widespread human rights abuses in Iran and expressed concern that torture and increased crackdowns on activists, journalists and lawyers could undermine the fairness of the election.
Waving off the skeptics, Amirahmadi is confident he will be approved. He has spoken with members of the council about his presidency, but not the supreme leader. He thinks that his years working in both the U.Read 16 independent user reviews and compare prices on the Canada Goose Womens Resolute.S. and Iran — he goes back about once a year and has worked on various projects in the country — put him in a rare position to broker deals.
"The Islamic Republic could not go to the God tomorrow and say, 'Create a human being for me with these particular characteristics,Enjoy the fastest delivery and in our monster beats cheap. who's a bridge builder, a peacemaker and an economic developer all in one,'" Amirahmadi said of himself, stressing that he is not aligned with any of the country's political factions.
"I have probably the best chance to bring them together," he said of the U.S. and Iran.
He thinks most issues between Iran and the United States can be solved through diplomacy and restoration of trust. Diplomatic relations between the U.S. and Iran ended with the country's 1979 Islamic Revolution, when the American Embassy was overtaken by protesters opposed to the Iranian monarchy that was installed by a CIA-led coup. American diplomatic workers were held hostage for 444 days.
Iran,The moncler jackets for sale was originally developed for scientists working in research facilities in Antarctica. he said, has a right to have nuclear enrichment facilities. The solution is getting the West to trust the country.
"I don't believe the problem is nuclear enrichment," he said. "The problem is lack of trust."
Amirahmadi has spent his candidacy courting people like himself — Iranian expatriates. He has crisscrossed the globe, looking to raise money and secure votes among a group that can cast ballots in the Iranian election. He spent five hours answering questions from a receptive group on a Reddit Ask-Me-Anything forum last month.
But creating a single voting bloc from a large, multifaceted worldwide community is difficult.

Soweto derby boosts local business
The Soweto derby might have ended in goalless draw on the weekend – but the local economy scored as a number of informal and formal business took advantage of the battle of the Soweto titans.
Preparations for the match had started well in advance as tickets for the match were sold out two weeks before the face off.
Hours before the game supporters had filled shopping centers around Soweto buying liquor and braai vleis in preparation for the celebrations which would take place after the game.View profiles and information for the Team RadioShack Cycling 2012 race team and riders here.

Thabang Sithole, an ardent Orlando Pirates supporter said he had come all the way from Witbank in Mpumalanga to watch the derby.
Sithole, who was wearing a tailor made sleeveless Orlando Pirates jacket which was tailor made, said he paid R560 to a Durban designer who designed the jacket for him.
“This is my fifth derby, and I will go all out to show support to my team,” said Sithole.
The Soweto highway, which is the main arterial route to Soccer city, was lined with informal business men and women who were selling team flags and Vuvuzelas in the middle of the busy road.
Further down the road from the high way young children selling fake tickets to unsuspecting motorists could be seen waving the sought after tickets.
Those who fell for their tricks only realized when they got to the stadium and were turned away by the security guards who were verifying the authenticity of the tickets with a machine.
Bongani Leuw,Cheap hermes handbags australia hot sale now. a Soweto business man, said he always looks forward to the derby because of the high profit that comes with it.
He sold team shorts, socks and caps, and Vuvuzelas, outside the stadium
According to Leuw, the cheapest T short he sold was for R300 and the most expensive went for R600.

Corpse callers have ghost of a chance of being set free soon
Four men were recently jailed for providing matchmaking services for ghosts. They supplied 10 female spirits for 10 lonely male ghosts. The female ghosts have been returned to their original graveyards.
This story,The Best moncler jackets men White Mens will meet your satisfaction! published recently in the Xi'an Evening News of China, tugged at my heartstrings. The matchmakeCheap hermes handbags australia hot sale now.rs were jailed, but surely the ghosts are the real losers?
Since this columnist has written regularly about ghost weddings, I wasn't surprised to get a call from a foreign correspondent from Europe for background.
"Why do ghosts need matchmakers?" she asked.
I explained that men who die single in China turn into lonely guy ghosts who refuse to leave this world, and instead hang around moping. This puts a serious downer on family parties.
"Who's the transparent guy?"
"That's cousin Chen, deceased. He's a bit of a wallflower."
The only way to solve this is to find the ghost an attractive female spirit of the right age and class. Agents offer female ghosts at a retail price of US$5,000 (HK$39,000), but if you go direct to the supplier, the wholesale price is US$3,000. The four men, named Pang,We work with all Castelli Cycling computers. Bai, He and Zhang, should have advertised for lonely female ghosts. Instead they saved time by simply visiting graveyards at night and digging up recently buried female corpses.Welcome to Specialized Cycling jersey online!
They then turned up at possibly haunted homes offering them for sale. "Good morning, ma'am, can I interest you in a fresh corpse?" Scientists expressed amazement last week after finding Arctic seals that can keep half their brains awake while the other half is in a deep sleep.
I guess these researchers never met university students.
Two apprentice hangmen dropped out from their training course unexpectedly, I hear from a correspondent in Sri Lanka.
Anyone fancy taking their place? Lessons include: "Calculating Length of Rope in Relation to Height of Victim" and "Use of Sandbags to Test Hanging Mechanism."
In Iraq in 2007, the gallows were set up wrong. Instead of being hanged, Saddam's half-brother Barzan had his head pulled off.
Witnesses described the execution as "inelegant." That's one way of putting it.

Slimane's grunge: Courtney Love approves
Hedi Slimane's autumn/winter 2013 ‘California grunge' collection at Saint Laurent has received the official seal of approval from the high priestess of grunge herself: Courtney Love.

Persaud was at risk of harm,The Canada Goose Yorkville Parka was originally developed for scientists working in research facilities in Antarctica." Patton said. "He continued to accelerate even as Mr. Persaud was wedged under the vehicle."
Patton told jurors Persaud was pinned under the SUV and dragged 15 metres before becoming unwedged. Persaud died in hospital eight hours later.
Peel Paramedics found him in a pool of blood, court heard. An autopsy showed he sustained extensive skull fractures, a brain injury and a fractured pelvis, among other injuries. He died of "multiple blunt force trauma."
Al-Kassem fled the scene, court heard, and was later arrested near Hillcrest Ave. in Cooksville. Police found the SUV at Cooksville GO station.
"They knew each other (Persaud and Al-Kassem). They didn't like each other," Patton said.
Persaud and the woman lived in the same complex on Webb Dr.
The two men argued outside the condominium complex on one occasion prior to the fatal collision and sent each other threatening text messages, one in which Al-Kassem tells Persaud he would deal with him "when the time is right," court heard.
The day of the fatal encounter, jurors heard, Persaud approached Al-Kassem near the accused's SUV. Witnesses' testimony and surveillance footage showed that it appears the two shake hands and make amends, Patton said.
But later, Persaud removes his jacket and approaches the SUV as Al-Kassem reaches for a tire iron, Patton said.
The two struggled over the tire iron.Shop the latest collection of monster beats cheap from the most popular stores . Moments later, Persaud was run down, court heard.
