Sacramento voters will have a chance to pass a ballot measure that would fund safer streets and better transit.

Brooklyn's waterfront is set to roll back into motion this spring as the Pier 2 roller skating rink reopens for its 12th season on March 27, ushering in a lively mix of music, movement and community along the East River.

But the most startling event was the couples competition, which featured a pair of male skaters, dressed in camouflage, with tape over their mouths in an "X"-a direct protest against the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. The couple who followed them-two shirtless men, around the same height, alternately lifting each other up and rolling over each other with playful, affectionate aggression-struck me as equally political, suggesting not just what was banned but what was possible.
