Representing a New York City firefighter who survived the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) is urging New York City officials to landmark the site of a planned Islamic mosque.  Parts of one of the hijacked planes fell into that building and the ACLJ argues that giving the site landmark status will help preserve the memory of 9/11 and its victims.

“The fact is that this is not the location to build an Islamic mosque,” said Jay Sekulow, Chief Counsel of the ACLJ.  “This is sacred ground, and for many family and friends of the 9/11 victims building an Islamic mosque on this site would be offensive.  We’ve heard from thousands of Americans and many New Yorkers, who understand that such a move would be a tragic mistake.”  Read more...

 

Here we get a look at a new Nike Air Max 95. This latest Air Max 95 comes in a Black/Croc colorway. We have seen so much of the Air Max 95 this year, but we haven’t witnessed anything like this. Most of this newly released Air Max 95 uses black, including the upper, inner lining, tongue, Nike swoosh, toe, heel, and the entire sole unit. The sneaker also features black croc skin, which is seen on the mudguard. No room is left for any type of color, so sorry to all the loud sneaker lovers. Other than the dominant black, there’s nothing more to this sneaker. If you’re looking for a black sneaker, this Nike Air Max 95 is perfect for you. Available now at select Nike retailers.  Read more...

He also called Steinbrenner the “classic capitalist” as he also made everyone around him rich.

Rev. Al Sharpton responded to the comments which Limbaugh thought were some type of eulogy stating his words were “repugnant and offensive whether they were intended to be facetious or tongue and cheek.”  Read more...
