Remembering Tommy Ashton
Eleven years ago today my cousin Tommy Ashton was murdered in the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
Here’s where he lives on in the 9/11 Memorial Guide.
But here’s where Tommy really lives on: In the tireless efforts of his sisters Colleen and Mary, who have run the Tommy Ashton 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament for the past seven years, raising over $250,000 to “[provide] charitable donations in the name of Thomas Ashton to institutions, organizations, worthy causes and individuals, including contributions to philanthropic endeavors and to community enhancing activities.”
We miss you all the time, Tommy.
Not just on September 11.

Todd Akin (R-Show Me The Money State) Dope Slaps Scott Brown
Missouri Senate hopeless Todd Akin, a.k.a. Mr. Shut That Whole Thing Down, bought the list of email subscribers to The Daily Caller and this is what he sent them:
Friend,
Ever been sold on one thing, then at the last minute the salesman tries to give you something else?
That’s exactly what’s been happening with pro-life supporters across the nation, when it comes to the corrupt party bosses.
They sell you on one thing – supporting candidates that will protect the unborn. On taking back the Senate from pro-abortion liberals like Claire McCaskill. On going to bat for pro-life candidates like Todd Akin.
Then what happens when one of those candidates, like Todd Akin, actually dares to stand up for life?
The Party Bosses run for cover. They say, “We don’t need to be talking about THAT,” or “Abortion isn’t a ‘winning’ issue.”
My friends, there are some issues that transcend politics, and protecting the unborn is at the TOP OF THAT LIST!
For too long, the Party Bosses – the same ones that left Todd Akin for dead politicially — have come to you hat in hand for your support. They ask for your money, your time, and your energy.
They raise money from pro-life supporters like you and me, but they then turn around and give it to people like Scott Brown, but not Todd Akin. Enough is enough!
Like Mike Huckabee said: “If they don’t want us, then they don’t need us.”
Mike and Janet Huckabee have donated the maximum to Todd Akin because they know that Todd won’t just talk the talk, he will walk the walk.
Todd Akin doesn’t shy away from what he believes in. He will STAND UP for life, regardless of the political consequences. Won’t you consider helping Todd stand for life?
If you want a candidate who says “NO” to the corrupt Party Bosses and “YES” to life,support Todd Akin today!
Sincerely,
Todd
Paid for by Todd Akin for Senate
First off, never trust a man who refers to himself in the third person.
Second off, huh?
Third off, in your face, Scott Brown.
Question: You gonna take that, Brownie?
The hardwondering staff will follow up and keep you posted.

NYT Correction o’ the Day (“Scream 4” Edition)
From the Sunday New York Times Corrections:
T: MEN
An article this weekend on Page 52 about new knits of the season, modeled by the actor Nico Tortorella, misidentifies his role in “Scream 4.” He plays a suspect (and eventual victim); he is not the killer.
Thank God they cleared that up.

Big Blow For David Ferrer At U.S. Open
The U.S. Open went all Key Largo yesterday, with heavy winds turning the Andy Murray-Tomas Berdych men’s semifinal into a game of Wiffle Tennis.
From ESPN.com:
NEW YORK — Dealing with 20 mph wind that blew a changeover chair onto the U.S. Open court on one point and yanked his hat off during another, Andy Murray navigated his way into his fifth Grand Slam final.
Now he’ll try to win his first Grand Slam title — and first for any British man in 76 years.
Adapting to the conditions far better than his opponent did, Olympic champion Murray came back to beat mistake-prone Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic 5-7, 6-2, 6-1, 7-6 (7) in a rain-delayed and wind-swept U.S. Open semifinal Saturday.
“It was brutal,” Murray said about his 3-hour, 58-minute victory. “Hard to describe. You had to focus for every single point. … Some of the hardest conditions I’ve ever played in, for sure, and I come from Scotland, so that’s saying something.”
Then again, as the Wall Street Journal’s Jason Gay tweeted:
Minutes after Murray and Berdych had finished, Novak Djokovic and David Ferrer were on the court in Arthur Ashe Stadium for the other men’s semifinal. And in a replay of the former match, Ferrer adapted much better to the windy conditions than Djokovic, who fell into a snit-filled 5-2 deficit . . . until play was suspended until this morning at 11.
Tough break for Ferrer, who should have at least been given the chance to serve out the set before the Open officials shut it down.
Ferrer’s an admirable player who never takes his foot off the accelerator. Just hope he doesn’t get blown away by Gale Force Novak today.
