Update: I edited out a sentence that was offensive to someone whom I did not mean to offend. I am running out of bakeries to patronize. First, there was The Priory on the Northside. I loved their baked goods, but disliked their tactics opposing the drink tax which cost our community an ally. Today, I did it […]
I watched her speech last night and was proud that she was my candidate for President. She did a great job lifting up Barack as her candidate, calling for unity and reminding her supporters why they got into her campaign in the first place. I thought her speechwriters masterfully celebrated her accomplishments while folding them into […]

According to the City Paper, Duquesne now includes sexual orientation among the classes against whom one may not discriminate. Previously, the school permitted the establishment of a campus Gay-Straight Alliance (GSA). News of the non-discrimination language change was news to the GSA. So much for the School of Communication. Anyway, now the GSA is lobbying […]
