Abstract: We consider several families of binomial sum identities whose definition involves the absolute value function. In particular, we consider centered double sums of the form [S_{alpha,�eta}(n) := sum_{k,;ell}�inom{2n}{n+k}�inom{2n}{n+ell} |k^alpha-ell^alpha|^�eta,] obtaining new results in the cases $alpha=1,2$. We show that there is a close connection between these double sums in the case $alpha=1$ and the single centered binomial sums considered by Tuenter.
