Statutes of limitations are important in law enforcement to assure that trials are conducted fairly. The trail of evidence can deteriorate, as well as the memories of victims and witnesses. Child abuse and molestation present a different set of problems. Even in cases where a victim is aware of what is going on, they may [...]

Charles Hynes and His Ethically Challenged Reality TV Show

CBS TV has apparently endorsed Brooklyn DA Charles Hynes for reelection, by playing him as himself in his real life role as Brooklyn District Attorney.

Judge Slaps Down Bloomberg’s 32 Ounce Soda Ban

Bloomberg The Illusionist Seeks To Ban Styrofoam

Bloomberg’s approach is simple. He has no respect for voters when he can buy elected representatives for chump change. His latest shot at banning styrofoam is just another attempt to create the illusion of  an idyllic city with no crime and  in which you don’t have to dumb down school tests to make the schools [...]

Joe Lhota Running As A REAL Republican For NYC Mayor [Video]

If you are a political conservative in New York City, you face an uphill battle. If your political conservatism is biblically based, then you are truly a stranger in a strange land.

Concerning the Weberman Guilty Verdict and the Crown Heights Case.

The recent guilty verdict for Nehemia Weberman is good news for victims of sexual abuse in Brooklyn and elsewhere. In Williamsburg, enough chassidim decided to overcome the embarrassment of cooperating (or at least not impeding) the prosecution of Nehemiah Weberman, who stands convicted of sexually abusing a girl he was supposed to be counseling over [...]

Rabindranath Tagore Stamp

Rabindranath Tagore Stamp

THOU hast made me known to friends whom I knew not. Thou hast given me seats in homes not my own. Thou hast brought the distant near and made a brother of the stranger. I am uneasy at heart when I have to leave my accustomed shelter; I forgot that there abides the old in the new, and that there also thou abidest.
Through birth and death, in this world or in others, wherever thou leadest me it is thou, the same, the one companion of my endless life who ever linkest my heart with bonds of joy to the unfamiliar. When one knows thee, then alien there is none, then no door is shut. Oh, grant me my prayer that I may never lose the bliss of the touch of the One in the play of the many.

Rabindranath Tagore (Gitangeli)
