| The downtown mural in State College has been changed again in light of the Freeh Report. Artist Michael Pilato had painted a halo above Joe Paterno's head after he passed away in January. After Thursday's report that implicated Paterno as well as other high ranking Penn State officers including former University President Graham Spanier in covering up aspects of Jerry Sandusky's child sex abuse case, Pilato felt he had to remove the halo from the painting. He added a blue ribbon to Paterno's... Read More |

Bastille Day, July 14th, is the French National Holiday commemorating the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille fortress prison on July 14, 1789. That act is seen as the symbol of the uprising of the French Revolultion and the start of the modern nation of France.
Here in Philadelphia the biggest Bastille Day celebration is held every year outside the walls of Eastern State Penitentiary. The reenactment of the Storming of the Bastille is rather playful, tongue in cheek, and... Read More |

| US District Judge William H. Yohn sees no difference between feeding the homeless outside at City Hall or outside in city parks along the Parkway, or that it is better or any more dignified on the concrete compared to the grass. He will be extending his temporary injunction against the enforcement of Mayor Nutter's city law banning outdoor feeding of groups larger than three for at least a year. This should give the city and various religious and secular groups plenty of time to come up with a... Read More |

| The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board announced today that it would begin accepting applications for a license for a second casino in Philadelphia. The license up for bidding is the same one that was revoked from Foxwoods casino a year and a half ago. A bill that would have opened up statewide competition for that license passed the House but never was taken up in the Senate. The current law still provisions two licenses for Philadelphia. Since the law does not seem like it will change the... Read More |

| Mayor Nutter told a federal judge this morning that his ban on public feeding of homeless people in the city parks is part of his plan to end city homelessness. It is not a reaction to pressure from cultural groups along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. The ban is being challenged on constitutional grounds from various religious groups who feed the homeless outside in city parks. They say it interferes with their free exercise of religion. Nutter says the outdoor feeding does not address the... Read More |

Next Monday, July 16th, arguably one of the best indie rock club tours of the summer will be in town playing Union Transfer. The double bill of Best Coast and Those Darlins both harken back to a different time and a different place, that you just can't put your finger, it's just not here and not now. If you had to try you'll probably be somewhere way west and 60 years earlier.
Best Coast, headed by Bethany Constentino with Bobb Bruno, captures the perfect warm, breezy... Read More |

New York Met's starting pitcher R.A. Dickey has had a career year so far in 2012 and leads the NL roster of pitchers in wins at 12 with a solid 2.40 ERA and 123 strike outs. However, National League manager Tony La Russa and staff decided to start San Francisco Giant Matt Cain instead (7-1, 2.87, 70 SO) to reward him for a "career of excellence". La Russa said it was a "tough call."
Dickey will enter the game in relief and La Russa has decided that when the knuckleball pitcher... Read More |
