How to Make Cities Livable Again
Throughout history, urban areas have taken on many functions, which have often changed over time. Today, this trend continues as technology, globalization, and information technology both undermine and transform the nature of urban life. Developing a new urban paradigm requires, first and foremost, integrating the traditional roles of cities—religious, political, economic—with the new realities and possibilities of the age. Most importantly, we need to see how we can preserve the best, and most ..>> view originalBuckeye Partners' (BPL) CEO Clark Smith on Q1 2016 Results ...

Now that the dust has settled on New York's Democratic primary and Hillary Clinton's decisive victory, it's time to step back and try to make sense of the city's core political and economic interests. Fortunately, both the New York Times and WNYC radio make it possible to track such interests at the local and even neighborhood level. To be sure, one should approach the maps with a certain degree of caution. In light of Election Day "irregularities," including 126,000 people who were "purged"..>> view originalWhy Collins should bring 'unbelievable' Syndergaard to All-Star Game
SAN DIEGO — Expect Noah Syndergaard to come back to Petco Park come July 12. As an All-Star. Terry Collins will be the manager, and the way Syndergaard is pitching he deserves to be on the NL team. Syndergaard pitched well enough to win Friday night, but once again the Mets offense disappeared against left-handed pitching. The Padres were able to scrape together two runs against Syndergaard, which was enough to come away with the 2-0 victory at beautiful Petco Park. “He’s something else, unbeli..>> view originalPredominantly Hispanic High School Graffitied With Trump's Name ...
A predominantly Hispanic high school in Los Banos, California, was vandalized the evening before Cinco de Mayo. Surveillance video appears to show that it likely was students in masks who committed the crime. School administrators do not know if the vandalism was a prank or something more malicious, but Donald Trump‘s name was scrawled across lockers and “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN” was tagged on the side of the gym. The graffiti also included references to building a wall. @realDonaldTrump You ..>> view originalBuffalo Bills Rookie Class Displays Rex-Like Exuberance

Some 30 years ago, members of the Goo Goo Dolls were driving around in a van, playing for, oh … roughly 10 people. Four albums in, they had failed to snag a hit song. All of that changed in 1995 with the release of their fifth album, “A Boy Named Goo" when the band's third single, “Name,” took off. “Then, boom! All of a sudden, you have this enormous hit song … Everything went crazy,” frontman John Rzeznik told The Huffington Post. The track topped the rock charts and reached No. 5 on the Bil..>> view originalThe Bufallo Billion was always an invitation to corruption
For US Attorney Preet Bharara — who dethroned the heads of both the state Senate and the Assembly — the idea of probing Gov. Cuomo’s Buffalo Billion must’ve been a no-brainer. After all, having the government hand a billion dollars in taxpayer money to the private sector is dubious in itself — never mind the opportunities it offers for corruption. So all the recent revelations of Bharara’s Buffalo Billion probe — notably, the subpoenas he’s handed out to several people, including the governor’s..>> view original
