Reasonable article about CrossFit: "Facing Down the Gila Monsters"
What is justice? At opposing ends of the spectrum (with many permutations in between) are two competing visions of justice. Both are grounded in an idea of justice as fairness. One vision is that life is fair if everyone gets "fair" share of the pie. The opposing vision is that life is fair, regardless of outcomes, if everyone lives and plays by the same rules, so that no one gets special treatment. Where do you stand, and why?

There are over 80 parking spaces at the new location!
