| Why Is Bush Ignoring the History of Slavery? What You Said About His ...
It is never too late to tell the truth. We all know that the Bush family is not the only family that were slave owners … slaves made them very rich men and that has been passed on to future generations. I feel that it is about time that the truth be told. I think when that truth is told and made a part of our history books, Black and white people can begin to discuss the sad part of our history in an open and honest way that might bring us together as American people. --Theodore Thomas How long do we have to keep talking about who did what and what is it that is so important that this time to talk about President Bush's family as slave owners [sic]? Does this do anything for the current world? We need to stop dividing the country and stop preaching Republicans are evil and Democrats are good.
No, we’re not related
But instead of one of my usual, meandering deals about life on the road in the NBA, I'm going to yap basketball for the umpteenth day in a row (sooner or later we're going to stray off topic, for real). So, I had a funny phone exchange after practice yesterday. "You and Dale Davis must be cousins after what you wrote [Monday]," the cat on the other end of the phone said to me, he was joking, of course. I had to laugh myself. No, we're not related. But Dale is one of my favorite dudes out there, active or not. And more importantly, he represents the type of player this Hawks team so desperately needs to complete what started over the weekend with the Mike Bibby trade. After watching these guys practice for the first time it became painfully obvious to me that Josh Smith, Al Horford, Zaza Pachulia and Solomon Jones comprise the entire frontcourt rotation the Hawks will use for the final 33 games of this season - starting with tonight's game against the Lakers - and possibly beyond.

Dining Around at Café Fresko in Bryn Mawr
Street scenes are hand-painted on the brick walls, pressed copper ceiling, granite topped tables, white linen napkins, and red mahogany colored chairs are part of the decor romantic lighting, dimmer switches control the two chandeliers and the matching electrified wall sconces. Our party of three began dinner with several appetizers. The Chef's Soup of the day (M.P) was rich combination of potato, leek, and onion puree that we dipped fresh bread into to get the last drops of green velvety goodness at the bottom of the bowl. We also sampled a large bowl of Prince Edward Island Mussels ($11) that were tender and fresh tasting in delicious saffron Avgolomeno and citron broth, Demetri's twist on a recipe from Greek Macedonia. A traditional Greek appetizer called Saganaki ($7) made with pan-seared Kaseri cheese and flamed in the kitchen with brandy and fresh lemon was delightful.
