Huffington Post: Obama Professed An Interest In Gun-Related Recreational Activities Way Back In 2010

Posted: 05 Feb 2013 10:37 AM PST

By way of Daily Kos (and a tip of the hat to Dave Weigel), here's word that President Barack Obama professed an interest in skeet shooting as early as September 2010, when he mentioned the fact that he'd practiced his rifle skills with the Secret Service.

Huffington Post: New York Mets' Owners Proposed Casino To Allegedly Help Pay Madoff Bills

Posted: 05 Feb 2013 10:37 AM PST

The owners of the New York Mets reportedly want to build a Las Vegas-style hotel and casino to help pay off a huge bill they owe the victims of Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme.

The New York Post revealed Tuesday a proposal to build a massive full-service hotel and casino practically next door to Citi Field in Willets Point, Queens. The proposal by owners Fred Wilpon and Saul Katz's real estate developer Sterling Equities, however, was quickly dashed by the city, given that it included Vegas-style gaming tables, which are currently illegal in the state of New York.

Still, hope may remain for the casino. Last June, the city granted Sterling -- along with another development company -- permission to build a 1 million square foot retail, residential and entertainment complex at the same location. With Governor Andrew Cuomo and state legislators considering turning over a ban on gaming tables, some have suggested the location would be ideal for such a casino in the future, according to CBS New York.

Huffington Post: Gay Hate Crime At UCLA: Sketch Of Suspect Released (VIDEO, PHOTO)

Posted: 05 Feb 2013 10:42 AM PST

UCLA has released a sketch of a suspect wanted in connection with what is believed to be a gay hate crime against a university student.

The student was walking on Gayley Avenue, near Veteran Avenue, at about 1:30 a.m. on Jan. 18, when two men got out of a dark-colored sedan and approached him. One of the men threatened the student with a knife and made anti-gay slurs, KTLA reports in the video above. Then the suspects fled in their vehicle.

The student suffered scratches and bruises but declined treatment. He told police he didn't know either of the men, but he thought they might have been able to guess his sexual orientation based on how he looked and acted, the Los Angeles Times reports.
