Score One For The Supremes
2008-10-06 18:51:00 As noted here, on their return to deliberations for another term, the Supreme Court of Hangin? Judge J.R. refused to hear arguments for a new trial in the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal, convicted by a jury of his peers in the murder of Officer Daniel Faulkner in 1981.As you can see from this list, Abu-Jamal?s supporters are legion, and this ensures that his legal appeals will go on indefinitely. However, though the list contains the names of many, many people I genuinely respect and admire (including The Eternal Molly Ivins and the late Paul Newman), it must be pointed out that, with respect, I believe these people were and are fundamentally wrong to support this charismatic con artist.I have lived in the Philadelphia metropolitan area and surrounding counties virtually all of my life. I have read and heard a great deal of reporting on this case. And though I think the argument that the jury didn?t contain a proportionate number of African Americans is valid, I don?t see how that fundamen...
The Supremes Go For A Swim
2008-06-23 17:48:00 This is an update to a story I previously posted about here; Bushco and the Navy have been fighting environmental groups off the southern California coast for awhile now over the issue of conducting military exercises involving sonar because of the harmful effects on marine life.In February, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the environmental groups. Well, today, it turns out that the case will be heard by the Supreme Court...The court is also in the habit of overturning the 9th Circuit. The Supreme Court has reversed the 9th Circuit in seven cases and upheld it only once this year, according to statistics compiled by scotusblog.com."Today's decision was anticipated, and we have already begun to prepare for Supreme Court review," said Joel Reynolds, Natural Resources Defense Counsel senior attorney.Oh, goody.I can just see it now; Dubya and the Supremes have the mammals declared ?enemy combatants,? and since the Geneva Conventions don?t apply to marine life, t...
TunesDay: What once was old shall be new again
2008-05-13 17:48:00 There is nothing new under the sun, or so they say. I’m not a big fan of groups that slavishly imitate their influences, but I do love bands with a sense of history and a desire to explore older styles in search of new angles. This obviously establishes a tricky standard - be true to the masters, but not … too true. It’s equally tricky for me as a listener and armchair critic, as well - I might like a contemporary band for the same reasons I liked the bands they’re riffing on, but is there enough in the way of originality going on? As I’ve noted before, the CDs I like and those I think are great aren’t always the same ones. Which brings me around to today’s TunesDay topic - the recent explosion of artists and bands taking their cues from ’60s acts, especially girlpop groups. I have to admit that I didn’t see this coming. Musical trends will cycle, but the period is usually closer to 20-25 years than 40-45. In any case, there are ...

The Supremes - The Happening (1967)
2008-01-02 09:00:00 The most successful black performers of the 1960s, the Supremes for a time rivaled even the Beatles in terms of red-hot commercial appeal, reeling off five number-one singles in a row at one point. Critical revisionism has tended to undervalue the Supremes' accomplishments, categorizing their work as more lightweight than the best soul stars' (or even the best Motown stars'), and viewing them as...

Standing Up To The Supremes
2007-07-13 18:20:00 As noted in this story, Democratic House Representative George Miller and Senator Hillary Clinton are responding to the recent ruling by Hangin? Judge J.R.?s Supreme Court in the Ledbetter pay discrimination case.A lower court had awarded Lilly Ledbetter, a longtime supervisor at Goodyear Tire & Rubber's plant in Gadsden, Alabama, damages after it agreed with her that a series of actions by Goodyear, including at least one negative performance review, had ended up lowering her pay far below that of her male coworkers. However, the ruling was overturned by an appeals court, and that ruling was upheld by the Supremes, because they decided she had waited too long to file her case beyond the 180 days of the discriminatory act that led to her underpayment.However, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg argued in dissent that similar prior rulings had decided that each instance of pay discrimination amounted to a new violation, thus starting up the 180-day counter all over. But Ro...
