| Driving to Lancaster from Philadelphia Friday afternoon, my wife and I passed through a town named Ephrata. In was named after the town that, in ancient times, was part of the city of Bethlehem; today it is a thriving Israeli city of 8,000-plus. Friends and colleagues who were meeting us in Lancaster passed towns named Bethlehem, Nazareth, Lebanon, and Zion. Early Pennsylvanians believed, as many modern ones do, in the Divine promise that the exiled Jews would be returned to the land of Bethlehem and Zion. How appropriate, I thought, to help usher in our Shabbat with Governor Palin, an... |

| As head of the Philadelphia Housing Authority, Carl R. Greene presided over a workplace of fear. For women, his subordinates say, there could be ogling, groping, and pressure for sex. For men and women alike, there were insults and humiliation. "You're stupid. You're lazy. I can't believe your parents wasted college education on you," Greene yelled at one young aide, she recalled. "I can't believe you're so incompetent." She left his sixth-floor office in tears, mascara streaming down her cheeks. Greene called out after her, telling his assistant: "Fix her up. Get her some makeup. I don't want her to... |
The One Man Who Can Stop Albert Pujols From Winning the Triple Crown (not Votto of Cincinnati)

| During Monday night's St. Louis Cardinals loss to the last-place (and worst record in baseball) Pittsburgh Pirates, Albert Pujols was 3-for-5 with a double, raising his batting average to .322. I know this stat is not important to saber heads (please bear with us), but for this argument it is imperative. Meanwhile, on the west coast, Cincinnati's Joey Votto went 1-for-4 in a 13-5 drubbing by the now offensively resurgent San Francisco Giants. That effort dropped Votto's season average to .323, a single point above Pujols. With Pujols ahead in the National League in home runs (33) and RBI (92),... |

| How does a financially strapped city with a shrinking manufacturing base and rising unemployment attempt to make a little extra cash? Tax the bloggers. Philadelphia is demanding that bloggers pay $300 for a business license, whether or not the blog brings in a fraction of that amount in profit, according to the Philadelphia City Paper. Marilyn Bess blogs about eco-friendly living in Philadelphia and the surrounding areas. She occasionally contributes to the DIY site eHow.com. Her profit in the last few years - $50. She told the City Paper that she received a letter from the city in May, demanding... |
New Black Panthers Speak Out (Must Read-then Must Vomit)

Posted by admin / Under Philadelphia And Western Railroad
| It’s just starting to get dark when I stroll up to Jerry Jackson’s house in north-central Philly, a tidy, well-landscaped brick single with a red, black and green flag flying out front. A small sign by the door reads: “COLORED ONLY. No Whites Allowed.” I go for the bell anyway, at any moment expecting someone to tell me to get my cracker-ass off the property. Jackson—chief of staff of the Philadelphia branch of the New Black Panther Party—answers, and we cordially shake hands. He tells me to wait, going back inside and locking the door behind him. Soon, the door... |

| Are you a blogger in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania? Do you have Google Adsense or some other sort of low-return ads on your blog? If so expect a letter soon from your friendly city treasurer demanding that you pay a $300 tax on your "money making business." For most people that maintain an active blog it is just a hobby. Some people blog daily but most only do so a few times a month. Many bloggers also participate in Google's advertising program called Adsense but few make much more than $20 or $30 a year from the effort. But... |
