The fourth of July is synonymous with fun times, great food and exciting fireworks. This year is no different. My neighbors and I have organized a huge block party that’s shaping up to be the celebration of the year.
Or course there will be the essentials like burgers and hot dogs, but I’m also working on something extra special. I’m preparing pulled pork using a secret recipe for Hard Rock Cafe’s pig sandwiches. The secret is marinating the pork shoulder for at least 12 hours and then slow cooking it until it just falls apart. Served on a soft bun with their signature pig sauce and homemade slaw. So yummy!

Wurtsboro Hills — When his ex-girlfriend's friends came looking for her Thursday night, police say, Martin Suzel responded by firing a 12-gauge shotgun at them.
Police said Suzel, 47, had gone earlier in the day to the woman's home to confront her, violating an order of protection. Suzel also has an order of protection against the woman, police said; about two months ago, she forced her way into his house, and, intoxicated and angry, threw his puppy against a wall, killing it. She faces felony burglary charges, as well as animal cruelty charges, in that case.
The friends were walking up to Suzel's house on Meadowlark Lane in Wurtsboro Hills about 6:40 p.m. when he fired the shotgun. He also pointed the gun at them and made threats, police said. State police charged Suzel with first-degree reckless endangerment and criminal contempt, felonies, and weapon possession, a misdemeanor. He was arraigned and sent to Sullivan County Jail without bail, pending an appearance in Mamakating Town Court.
Inside the first lawsuit aimed at overturning the state's recognition of same-sex marriage is a lesson in practical politics — one that everybody in New York should remember. The group New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms claims that the Senate engaged in a "corrupt process," violating the state's open-meetings act, bypassing Senate committee procedure, even taking donations from groups trying to influence legislation.
If that sounds corrupt, it also should sound familiar. The state Legislature long ago insulated itself from many requirements designed to open deliberative processes. It has a history of using rules as it sees fit at the time. And giving money to get results has been a legal way of life in Albany for decades.
It will take a brave judge to overturn the law on any of these grounds. Most likely, the judge will have to conclude that the reason all these activities are not illegal is because they are conducted by the people who make the laws.
