Mike Bibby to start Game 5

May 16th, 2012

GREENBURGH, NY — With Baron Davis out, Mike Bibby will get the start in Game 5 on Wednesday night.

Bibbys strength in the series so far has been his clutch 3-point shooting, especially in Game 4. With 1:08 left in the third quarter, he put the Knicks ahead 62-58, and with 1:23 remaining in the fourth, he put the team up 84-81.

In fact, scouts describe the 33-year-old as more of a glorified shooting guard at this later stage in his 14-year career. Hes not fast enough to consistently blow by anyone and, therefore, doesnt put much pressure on the defense, especially in this series because hell be mostly asked to bring the ball up the court efficiently, which he will, and then...

It’s Right to Give Animals Rights

May 16th, 2012

We live in a world marked by its gradual shift toward equality. From absolute monarchs deriving their power through the divine right theory of kingship to the Declaration of Independence deriving its power through the consent of the governed, the history of our world is the story of this transition. With this transition, we have made it universally accepted that the torture or slaughter of humans is morally repugnant. We empathize with the cruelties of the Holocaust, the devastation of the Darfur Genocide, and the atrocities of the Bosnian War. We immediately denounce these incidents as horrifying and immoral, proclaiming that all people are equal regardless of their race or cultural identity....

May 16th, 2012

NEW DELHI: Air travel cost from Delhi would go up from Tuesday next when higher user development fee (UDF) becomes effective for all domestic and international passengers while departing or arriving at the IGI Airport.
