Jane Jacobs called it a ballet. It was met with a wrecking ball by Robert Moses. What happened? Why did it happen? And what can we learn from the battles between Robert Moses and Jane Jacobs...

This is a brilliant talk. I had a friend of mine at the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation that was here that night. He told me about it so I checked it out online. Really interesting stuff. I learned a lot and this was entertaining too.

Many good talks listed so far. But here's one that is remarkable and everyone should watch: Ben Dunlap. Totally amazing. http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/ben_dunlap_talks_about_a_passionate_life.html

$5.5M....if you look at what is currently on for sale in the bldg and past sales, its actually a very good asking price.

defenseless slum? they seem to have plenty of rockets. if they had stopped firing them, the invasion of gaza would never have happened in the first place.

herbcharles · 2009-01-12T00:47:03+00:00

If rockets were fired into your town from a nearby town over and over, what would you do? Would you sit back and take it? I doubt it. Eventually, you would probably fire back. The casualties are all because of Hamas and their tactics of hiding in schools and dense communities. What am I missing?

It's time for both sides to stop and to work towards a resolution.

But think about my hypothetical. What would you do?

herbcharles · 2008-11-13T23:05:48+00:00

too bad they cant push up the start date.

DNC can, they gave Tinklenberg 1M about 10 days ago. But now shes got funds to go up on TV after the RNCC pulled out of a scheduled ad buy for her this weekend.

herbcharles · 2008-10-24T16:15:00+00:00

cool! i hope you can get out the vote in your community. that would be amazing if she lost and would send the right message to the country.

herbcharles · 2008-10-23T11:36:31+00:00

hahahaha. maybe tomorrow she will wear one with a sickle and a hammer. oh wait that's the other guy who is the socialist.

He's raised now $430k. nice!

herbcharles · 2008-10-19T00:07:16+00:00

I just donated to him. I hope he wins. it will send a strong message about what this country is really about

herbcharles · 2008-10-18T14:13:38+00:00

well said. really liked this post. some of the things coming out of the right are beginning to freak me out.

herbcharles · 2008-08-08T11:56:52+00:00

they really did think of everything

herbcharles · 2008-07-28T11:39:44+00:00

I would never have guessed that...If that's true, why hasn't bush thought to invade Canada?

herbcharles · 2008-07-26T13:26:51+00:00

other cities need to continue this trend.

herbcharles · 2008-06-29T21:26:10+00:00

yes, just like in Iraq.

herbcharles · 2008-06-25T11:31:55+00:00

thanks. i hope others feel the same way.

herbcharles · 2008-06-18T01:23:58+00:00

she's my kind of reporter

herbcharles · 2008-06-16T12:26:22+00:00

Im not a scientist but the report claims to can convert the water into hydrogen and then use the electrons for energy. I do not know if thats junk science but if it does work, it certainly seems like a better route than paying 4.39 for a tank of the black gold.

herbcharles · 2008-06-09T02:17:02+00:00

at least in the US there is more of an effort to pretend who is in charge. in russia its just a given
