Supreme Court Rules Against Student In ‘Bong Hits 4 Jesus’ Case
Decision tightens limits on students’ right to free speech.

On Monday morning (June 25), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against an Alaskan high school student suspended in 2002 for unfurling a 14-foot banner bearing the words “Bong Hits 4 Jesus” during a parade in support of the Winter Olympic Games. In its first major decision on student free-speech rights in two decades, the court determined that the student’s rights had not been violated.

Red Diamond breaks ground in Moody

Labor Day one year ago, the faith of a mustard seed collided with the scent of a coffee bean and brought together Moody officials and lawyers to a table in a Birmingham law office where they cut a deal that they believed would forever change the landscape of the city. The deal inked that day brought the 101-year-old Red Diamond Coffee, Tea and Food Service Corporation to Moody to build a new $20 million headquarters building and distribution center.

Genealogy: Lessons Learned – ATPC
Golden Key

Finding the records that may be the golden key to knowledge about great-grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins are blocked by many barriers and challenges to be overcome. Some may wonder why do it at all? Many are content to live in the present with those who are here now. The conclusion would seem to be supported if one perceives that….. history is history and there isn’t much you can do about. Or, doing genealogy serves no useful purpose and only takes away from prime time of the living. I hope you are not entrapped in this frame of mind.

My reaction to this type of thinking is what will the living find not important next? If one’s roots are not important than what purpose is our existence? Is each generation to be only their moment in time? I think not! I can understand why the youth may not think about their lineage. Youth are captured by building a future and of not facing mortality that will come when aging affects not only their aching bodies and while they possess a mind ripe with experience. But, if you are already there and still are not thinking about the meaning life, you are missing what’s truly important in life and that is family. When all else fails, family prevails. Being rooted in family is knowing your connections to the past. Realizing much of what you are today is based on what they contributed to putting you in a position to have it. They didn’t make the decisions for you, you still have this freedom of choice, but if it weren’t for them, there would be no you.

Stick shift gets the best of would-be robbers

Who needs the Club when you have a stick shift?

Two teenage robbers spent valuable getaway time Monday night trying to drive off in a stolen car — but gave up, police said, when they realized they couldn’t navigate a sedan with manual transmission.

The teens bolted from the Honda Accord into some woods but were captured within minutes.
