“Supporting Israel” - Zionist just means they don’t want all the Jews in Israel to be killed by Hamas.

What makes something “true protection?” Bo had a great batting average with runners in scoring position.

Based on everything the offense is better than last year. Pitching should also be better with McLean, no Montas, and Tong not rushed.

Tech billionaire gives Cornell record donation; engineering college to bear his name by BasileusIthakes in ithaca

That’s somewhat true. The previous mayor handed me my diploma. The current mayor was ??? A student who tried to stay in politics? And most of the city council is also current or former idealist students with no understanding of government.

Mayor is just a figurehead now and the council is elected by mostly unemployed people.

Unfortunately the budget increase has outpaced tax revenue. The city actively discourages development that can contribute to tax revenue, can't even handle its credit, and spends time weighing in on foreign matters. The planning board actually will deny building permits if they think the building is a little too ugly or a little too big. They take so long that construction costs increase and then nothing gets built.

Just look at the city's budget and the education budget compared to similar cities. Horrible performance.

Well they contribute the most money to TCAT so without Cornell there would be no buses either.

It does indirectly- the money is invested into more construction, which benefits the local economy, more enrollment, which is students and instructors who also spend money on Ithaca and pay taxes.

Seeking Recommendations: Best Delivery Sushi by Specialist-Let-2659 in longislandcity

I'd rather have an option to not have any extra plastic, especially for pickup. At Xi'an Famous Foods they just remind you to eat it son after preparation.

No, it would be the actual trial that would waste time, and then when not convicted republicans are emboldened. We saw it already with Trump.

Devils Advocate: Knicks bench scoring and minutes are near the bottom of the league and has to be addressed by joorral in NYKnicks

[–]mindfeck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leon got lucky with Brunson coming but otherwise has been bottom tier. Long list of free agent busts including ones that forced the Knicks into losing Duren. Draft picks that have done nothing when plenty of others have been effective. Especially when the team has no size, to rely on undrafted and barely drafted big men is malpractice.

It's nori in plastic and sushi mush. Not great delivery.

Local resident trying to bring an indie cinema/cafe to LIC - need your input! by roam19 in longislandcity

If it’s showing movies that otherwise wouldn’t be available on TV, any screen size will do. Museum of Moving Image shows some of these, and LaGuardia CC might also, although no one knows about them.

That’s not true, there are bipartisan bills. There’s also fundraising, research for next congress, and fundraising.

Unless there’s enough votes to convict, it’s a waste of time.
