UNBROKEN WOMEN

It's 3.00 am in the morning on the streets of Hunts Point in the Bronx. The women continue to risk everything for a few dollars. The men in cars pull over to the curb and for the right sum, only a little money, another world begins. They are of every age, and every race. At the end of the day they take off their masks and resume their lives. More dirty and ashamed as prostitutes, these women are mothers, wives, students, and sometimes all three.

DESPERATION

Submitted by Admin on

The last thing you want to convey to voters the day before they go to the polls is desperation, or rage. So why are the candidates saying and doing just about anything, including political flip-flops the day before V Day?

Slain Journalists Honored

Submitted by Admin on

Starting on Sunday, the Committee to Protect Journalists tweeted from CPJ's Middle East Twitter account @cpjmena all the names of every journalist who has been killed in the four years since March 15, 2011, when the Syrian uprising began.

The list contained the names of 81 journalists, making it the second deadliest conflict since CPJ has been keeping track starting in 1992. The Iraq War is number one, but Syria is "tragically catching up," says the committee.

CLINTONATION GATES

Hillary Clinton’s use of her email account at the State Department is only the most recent scandal surrounding Clintonation. Hillary's news conference said very little, but can also be analyzed in different ways. Clinton's rise and fall of her speaking voice was heard in English with a specific intonation, or inflection, pitch, tone, timbre, cadence, lilt, rise and fall, modulation, speech pattern. Do you recall Bill Clinton's explanation after Monica?

Lest not forget... Our nation has experienced several versions of Cintongates.

It appears that voters may shun public recognition of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Divided Israelis are reportedly heading away from their hard-line leader.

He was once adored and now loathed, Israeli Prime Minister is sweating towards a third straight term in an election Tuesday seen as a referendum on his leadership. The 65 year old Libra has apparently lost his balance.

WET AND WACKY WEATHER

Submitted by Admin on

Hazardous Weather Outlook is in effect for sections of NYC over the weekend due to possible flooding in some areas. There is also the possibility of ice jam flooding of rivers and streams due to the combination of snow-melt and rainfall.

After midnight, we’ll see a few locations with a brief period of wet snow or sleet at the onset of the precipitation. For the most part, this is a plain spell cold rain for everyone taper off during the early afternoon.
