Bulls honor wrong guys, Blackhawks don't honor enough
2009-11-10 05:53:00 Something smells rotten in the bowels of the United Center, and it has nothing to do with Chicago's famously pungent sewer system.My last couple of freelance writing assignments took me to the U.C. for Bulls and Blackhawks games, and I couldn't help but notice the life-sized photos on the new "walls of fame" outside the team's respective locker rooms.On the "Blackhawks Legacy" side were Glenn Hall, Pierre Pilote, Tony Esposito, Denis Savard, Stan Mikita, Bobby Hull and Keith Magnuson. Where are Jeremy Roenick and Chris Chelios?...
The Honor in Wearing the Othello Costume
2009-10-14 01:41:00 As the rehearsal process comes to an end and we put our hard work on display tomorrow night for our Chicago audiences, I admit I've been thinking about what this performance, this role, and this time in my life means to me. It is a real honor to be chosen to dance the role of Othello and adorn the Othello costume. As a dancer, and an artist in general, it is an incredible honor to perform such a classic, integral piece of English literature, let alone perform its leading role...

Ways to honor our history...
2009-09-11 21:08:00 The Mets have been highly criticized for their failure to honor their history, the Jackie Robinson rotunda is a striking way to enter the stadium but it is a bit much for many Mets fans. I once suggested calling it the Shea rotunda ( since he's the founding father of the team) with the Jackie Robinson Memorial and making the rotunda a little more of a mix between the Mets and Jackie. While I love the new stadium, it was a bit stark at first and they have done a good job of catching up but as the Mets always seem to be doing they came off as reactionary. After this failed season I think something they could do to take a more proactive approach to next season, aside from the actual team they put on the field is to do a better job embracing their history. I'm pretty strict on the numbers I would retire, but there are three players who were the Mets during their time with the team and in my opinion, no one should ever wear those numbers again...#16 Dwight Gooden#18 Daryl Strawberry#31...

Duty, Honor, Country
2009-06-06 06:00:00 On the 12th of May 1962, General Douglas MacArthur received a very distinguished award from a rather esteemed institution in West Point, NY. During his acceptance address, with earnest humility, he expressed deep gratitude for the recognition. He spoke of a great moral code that molds and yet exemplifies the American soldier. He noted that such a code of three dynamic words, "Duty, Honor, Country" would raise the ire of enemies and rile the hypocrite to downgrade and mock such fanciful ideals. But to the soldiers who listened, MacArthur lectured, "They mold you for future roles as the custodians of the nation's defense. They make you strong enough to know when you are weak, and brave enough to face yourself when you are afraid." At each point, the venerated general presented juxtapositions that would arise and be overcome by faithful adherence to the values contained in those three words, "Duty, Honor, Country." These three words are those of men gone by, who believed that our nat...

Don't Delete Those Files Just Yet; Have This T-shirt to Honor Them
2009-05-01 19:18:00 You have been working on this project for few months already. To support your project, you researched ton of information from the Internet archives, physical journals, and from your own survey. It's a lot of time and energy spent to get all of these information. You have them saved in your computer folders. But they're too unorganized, kinda messy and you hate this situation. So you think spring-cleaning unused files will be great. But don't delete them just yet. Because, first, you will make Mr File(s) sad; second, you don't know when you will need them again. Thanks God there's recycle bin where you can temporarily dump unused files before you decide to delete them once you finish your project.Oh, I cannot imagine when you delete them. Mr File(s) must be very sad, and so you are -- there is bonding between you and them. Just like what Uneetee visualizes on its cranberry-color Tee shirt. Makes me a little bit unhappy when I have to dump my unused files to recycle bin, I imagin...

Poll: 67% Of Pakistanis Ok With Honor Killings Only 3.6% Believe Taliban Ar
2009-02-25 04:02:00 Thanks to Muslims Against ShariaThe British government has funded research into public opinion in the tribal areas, the poorest area of Pakistan where the average local income is half the national average and average per capita development expenditure under a third of that elsewhere.Locals, who express a strong desire for more jobs, hold mixed views on the cause of local "Talibanisation", blaming it on the Afghan conflict, corrupt and inefficient local government, poverty and illiteracy. Though there is strong support for better female access to health and education, there was profound reluctance among the largely male survey respondents to empower women more generally, with 67% supporting "honour killings". Over 50% of those polled believed Islamic law brought peace to the region and only 3.6% considered the Taliban to be terrorists.Very telling statistics.
