Sid Caesar was one of the very first funnymen on TV in the early 1950s and he influenced generations of comedians and comedy writers. Mr. Caesar died on Wednesday at age 91.

He was a master of comedy whether he was working from a script or simply improvising. Here is one of my favorites as a multilingual communicator.

Something fishy is going on with The City Island Bridge Project. Tutor Perini Corporation's longtime media spokesman Jorge Casado has suddenly become extremely unresponsive, while his growing TPC crews continue to trim trees in preparation for their ongoing bridge construction work.

The city of Atlanta has become a virtual ghost town as emergency crews battle a vicious ice storm in the state capital of Georgia that had already cut off power for tens of thousands of people across a long arm of the Southeast and left the streets empty and regions covered with ice and snow.

Atlanta residents were just recuperating from another snowstorm two weeks ago after hundreds of people jammed local roads trying to get home at the same time. The ice storm this week prompted Governor Nathan Deal to declare a state of emergency for about 40 Georgia counties.

Another winter storm is headed this way: Being prepared is a MUST.

Winter storms sometimes result with millions left without power, heat, or fresh running water. Making preparations before a winter storm is extremely important, since these leave dangerous roads and conditions in their paths.

The National Weather Service says the NYC metropolitan area will get hit late Wednesday night through Thursday night. There is a chance that we will get up to eight inches of snow, and possibly mixing with rain on Thursday.
