- Downtown Gotham laments closure of Meatpacking District eatery :: EDGE
  Posted by Villagenyc
  
  After 23 years of serving countless steak frites, muscles and Boudin Noire in an area more known for beef racks, leather daddy's, transgender prostitutes, club kids and Hogs and Heffers, the modern landmark 24 hour French diner that served the fashionable alongside the "freaky" has closed its doors. News reports account Morellet signed a lease for $6,000 in 1995. The landlord reportedly sought to increase the rent to around $700,000 per year-or $58,000 per month-this past year. And Morellet was left with little choice but to close shop after a period of unsuccessful negotiation.

- Political Cortex: Gym Pundits Worry About Obama Nomination
  Posted by Villagenyc from politicalcortex
  When seeking to challenge his Obama friend, he asked him about the lopsided Clinton victory in West Virginia and the other wins in Pennsylvania and places like Ohio, places in America where progressives have work to do and trust to win, where aggressive attempts to prove to the economically disenfranchised or higher education denied and affordable universal health care starved people that government can do good things for people, the Obama supporter cut deep.

City May Seek Permit and Insurance for Many Kinds of Public Photography

One of the many tragedies of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina three years ago was the fact that insurance companies used the event to systematically deny claims, leaving victims further in desperate straits. That shouldn’t happen following any natural disaster, and even though the immediate storm effects did not cause as much damage as predicted, there are sure to be plenty of claims for flood damages throughout the Midwest and along Gustav’s path. If you or someone you know has been denied an insurance claim related to Gustav: that would be a site you should visit.

Bill Clinton lost the majority of these same states in the primary. he won them in the general. It’s nothing to sweat.

It's kind of unbelievable that no one has anything to say about this. But, that's CommonTimes. They're a shy bunch over here.
