  • During Lent, There Will Be No Burger with My Fries,Video: Pilgrims Leave
    During Lent, there will be no burger with my fries By Matt Palmer [email protected] Go big or go home, right? Lent is about sacrifice and walking in the journey with Jesus. People all across the globe will start the season with Ash Wednesday Mass and try to come up with something they are giving up for 40 days. A year ago, I gave up sodas, no small feat for a guy who drinks Cherry Cokes like they’re water. This year, I’m pulling out the big gun. I’ve giving up … wait for it … hamburgers. Stop laughing. Seriously, pick yourself up off the ground and breathe. Giving up burgers is a big deal to a picky eater like myself. The way I see it, great burgers are an art form, taken for granted like a 1980s Hall and Oates song – always a reliable hit. As a reporter, I’m constantly on the run and getting a drive-thru burger is an easy fallback. As a regular guy, I look at a restaurant menu of what other people see as a display of delicious food and wonder what the hamburger tastes like. More often than not, someone says, “Like a burger.” And I respond, “Awesome. I’ll get that.” Sometimes I get an itch and just run out and a buy a burger. It’s really that bad. Of course, I like making burgers on the grill, too. It gives me that boost of feeling extra manly about my burger addiction. Lenten Fridays have always been tough for me.

Conservatives, Liberals, and American Political Culture Since 1945 Abstract [Excerpt] From the perspective of the early twenty‑first century, we can chide the good professor for not carefully considering the consequences of what he wished for half a century ago. For it is clear that the force of this conservative movement in America was in fact “stronger than most of us [knew]” or could have imagined in 1950, or, indeed, in 1968. This conservative “impulse”, those “irritable mental gestures”, has largely restructured American political thinking with a force and popular approval that remains stunning to consider.

  • Eminent Domain and the Public Good: the Poletown Case Revisited
    Eminent Domain and the Public Good: The Poletown Case Revisited John Critchett*, Ph.D., Donald Conrad#, J.D. *Professor of Accounting & Finance, School of Business, Madonna University #Attorney, Donald R. Conrad Law Offices, PLC ______________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: In this paper we briefly trace the history of eminent domain law in the U.S, including the 2005 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Kelo v. City of New London, which allowed property to be condemned for the purpose of building a research facility for the Pfizer Corporation. We review the use of the terms “public use” and “public purpose” in precedent cases, and propose that they can lead to different legal outcomes. We specifically re-examine the 1981 Michigan Supreme Court decision that allowed a 465 acre area in the heart of Detroit known as “Poletown” to be condemned for the purpose of building a General Motors plant which promised thousands of jobs during a time of economic turmoil for Detroit and surrounding communities. Many residents came together to form the Poletown Neighborhood Council (PNC) to oppose the condemnation and destruction of their homes and community, but they did not have adequate bargaining power and resources to prevail against the economic interests of General Motors and the cities of Detroit and Hamtramck. The resulting condemnation of hundreds of homes, businesses, and a fifty year old Catholic church has been cited as a textbook case of social injustice. In 2004, the Michigan Supreme Court reversed its earlier Poletown decision and, in 2016, Michigan voters passed Proposition 4, which placed significant restrictions on future eminent domain actions in Michigan.
