| Many are talking about the recent suspension of BYU basketball player Brandon Davies for violating the school's honor code.

A Forbes magazine article this week ranked Philly No. 1 on its "America's 10 Most Toxic Cities" list.
Forbes staffers based the list on five measurements, three drawn from a website that compiles data on U.S. cities but warns users not to "assume that the provided content is error-free."
Philadelphia's water-quality rating on this site was what pushed the city into the No. 1 spot.

Statistics say crime is up in Camden since police layoffs
Violent crime jumped 19 percent and aggravated assaults with firearms 259 percent over the same time period last year in Camden.
Some say comparing the stats over a year is like comparing apples and oranges and that these stats just reek of an attempt to justify the need for more police funding.
