- Fear of America's Cities
  Posted by Villagenyc from OpEdNews
  The "most dangerous" rankings, tend to be simplistic and incomplete. Beyond the irresponsibility of broadcasting shrill messages that fail to detail crucial criminal science and sociological factors in each of these unique places, especially the story behind the poverty that leads to high crime rates, is the fact that the lists actually help divide us as a nation, and that is more dangerous than Downtown Detroit

- The Simplistic and Divisive List of Dangerous Cities
  Posted by Villagenyc
  The “most dangerous” rankings, tend to be simplistic and incomplete. Beyond the irresponsibility of broadcasting shrill messages that fail to detail crucial criminal science and sociological factors in each of these unique places, especially the story behind the poverty that leads some cities to high crime rates, is the fact that the lists actually divide us as a nation, and in a number of ways, that is more dangerous than Downtown Detroit at midnight.

- John Dingell talks to Grist about climate change, fuel economy, and the 110th Congress
  Posted by Jeff from Grist
  Dingell doesn't believe in Global Warming. Amanda at Grist hits him hard: "Some argue that protecting Detroit from increased CAFE standards has actually made the U.S. less competitive. Today the most successful auto companies are the ones that are producing the most efficient cars." The dems have a long way to go.
