For what it’s worth Stephens had denied his involvement in the robbery and
Crittenton’s defense attorney Eldridge Suggs said his client wasn’t in the
vehicle at the time of the shooting and was looking forward to clearing his
name.
In the end, the legal system will decide Crittenton’s fate but his plight once
again brings to light the NBA’s significant problem with firearms.
Absent of a change in federal law there isn’t much NBA commissioner David
Stern can do even with a new collective bargaining agreement as long as his
players who do own guns do it in a legal fashion.
Stern did try to address the issue back in October of 2006 after Stephen
Jackson, then with the Indiana Pacers, shot his gun in the air outside an
Indianapolis strip club.

Sports in Brief: NCAA punishes Miami players
The NCAA ruled Tuesday that eight Miami players must sit out games and repay benefits in order to play for the Hurricanes again.
Starting quarterback Jacory Harris and four other players must sit out one game and make repayment.
Olivier Vernon will miss six games. Ray-Ray Armstrong, and Dyron Dye will sit out four games. Marcus Forston, Sean Spence, Adewale Ojomo, and Travis Benjamin will sit out one.
The suspensions are the result of allegations made by former booster Nevin Shapiro. Shapiro, a convicted Ponzi scheme architect, said he entertained players at his $6 million home and took players to strip clubs.
Separately, Miami coach Al Golden said senior wide receiver Aldarius Johnson – who was also implicated by Shapiro, but not named in Tuesday’s NCAA statement – has been suspended indefinitely for a violation of team rules.

NSO coordinators are working with DPS, the Vice Provost for University Life and others “to ensure that everyone is aware of the curfew and that it doesn’t impede NSO events,” NSO Director David Fox wrote in an email. “My expectation is that everything will proceed as planned.”
DPS sent an email to all incoming freshmen Monday, informing them of the curfew ordinance. A mandatory Safe Living workshop will be held during NSO on Sept. 2 to give students an update on the curfew and other safety information.
“If you’re under 18 and want to go to the library, want to get something to eat, use the escort service [PennWalk],” Rush said. All students are also advised to carry their PennCards along with another form of identification stating their age. If stopped by any police in the city — such as

Bound Brook, a town along the Raritan River that had some of the most dramatic floods 12 years ago when the remnants of Hurricane Floyd swamped the state, was getting hit again, but it seemed that flood controls built since then were keeping the waters from rising as high this time.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the state started putting infrastructure in place to lessen the impact of flooding. A system of water pumps, levies, flood walls and diversions was making the difference this time around between outright disaster and a manageable emergency, officials said.
Downtown Bound Brook looked like an eerie movie studio Monday afternoon. Quaint clothing stores with mannequins in the windows stood alongside Ooh-La-La’s gentleman’s club and a Chinese restaurant. The normally bustling downtown was completely vacant as pumps sucked water from the main strip. At its height, the water reached businesses’ doorknobs, officials said, but by late Monday only a few feet remained.

The Chairs was unexpectedly brilliant. Picked at random from the programme for its convenient time, this tragic absurdist play by Ionesco had us gripped. The elderly couple, seemingly at the end of the world and teetering on the edge of sanity, were class acts, utterly convincing, even though what was actually happening is obscure. The same couple were also delivering Ionesco’s The Lesson a couple of hours later and we were very sorry to miss it but the Camden Voyeur did not. We would jump at the chance to see Atelier Theatre again. (LC)
The Accomplice felt like a play that needed a script edit but survived and entertained thanks to a strong performance from prostitute Jennifer, making no bones about the realities of life as a working girl but provoking dark laughs a plenty. Shy but defiant, middle class waitress Catherine is less convincing at start but warms up with wine (was that real booze?) but quite why she would pick …

The reality of pay-for-play in college sports
By John Smallwood Philadelphia Daily News
Daily News Sports Columnist
OK, CAN WE put a bit of reality into this “pay college athletes” debate that is again in the forefront with numerous allegations of misdeeds surfacing at the University of Miami.
Giving “student-athletes” an extra $300, $400 or $500 in addition to their full scholarships is not going to deter the type of activities that have reportedly happened over the last decade at “The U” between jailed booster Nevin Shapiro and Hurricane football and basketball players.
A few hundred bucks a month is not going to buy diamond-studded necklaces, gain underage players entrance to VIP suites of exclusive nightclubs, pay for high-end prostitutes, parties on yachts, big-screen television sets and other perks.

AUSTIN, Texas – A $5 entrance fee to Texas strip clubs is constitutional and not an improper restriction on nude dancing, the Texas Supreme Court ruled yesterday. Lower courts had called the so-called “pole tax” a First Amendment and an improper burden on the free expression of nude dancing. The fee has been imposed on clubs that allow nude dancing and serve alcohol since 2007 to raise money for sexual-assault prevention programs and health care for the uninsured. The all-Republican Supreme Court, which ruled unanimously, said the fee is too small to be considered a burden on free expression, and the state has a legitimate interest in trying to curb the secondary effects of potential violence associated with adult entertainment and alcohol.
…
To avoid paying the fee, strip clubs could simply not serve alcohol, Justice Nathan Hecht wrote for the court.

… We’re planning on being ready for the spring sales market,” Casaccio said. “It’s too late for the fall. But we’re definitely moving forward.”
The first step, he said, would be getting utility company contracts reinstated.
“Then we will commence with the construction – sewer and drainage,” Casaccio said. “We moved all of our supplies offsite so we have to move them back. That will happen right after Labor Day. I hope to have all site improvements done by March 31 and have two model homes installed.”
Absecon Shores residents had complained when trees hiding the area were cut down, revealing some dilapidated house trailers and an old building.
They told City Council that they weren’t as concerned about reports of narcotics and prostitution in the existing run-down neighborhood as the fact that a new, improved, but manufactured homes development would be visible from Route 30 at the access to Absecon Shores.
