That is why Senator Obama's message resonates so much with us. As I've followed the campaigns, I see him behaving the most honorably and graciously of all. He is a Christian who quotes the most Christian of all principles, which is to be your brothers/sister's keeper (essentially to care for each other) and his message of hope is so important in our world today. I'm also glad he has some Muslim roots because I think that will give him an edge in majority Islamic countries where he will be listened to and respected more because of that. It's too bad that so many Americans don't realize this, but instead focus on being afraid of Muslims and seeing them as enemies.

After surgery, Ray aims for August return

Fort Lauderdale, Fla. - Reports that Chris Ray will miss the 2008 season apparently haven't reached the Orioles' closer. He's working on a different timetable.

Ray will begin his throwing program today by doing some light tossing, another indication that he's on schedule in his recovery from ligament-reconstructive surgery on his right elbow. Ray had the procedure Aug. 16 and expects to be pitching again by his one-year anniversary.

"It's around four months or so of the throwing program, and hopefully, if everything goes well and there are no setbacks, I see myself back up there in August," he said.

The two of us live here, our kids go to school here, and we begin every day confronting the issues of journalism here. In nearly 40 years of work, this is our first joint byline.
