End of Day Wrap Up

- WTC news: In possibly another sign that the WTC rebuilding totally sucks, the president of the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation, Kevin Rampe, has resigned today. NY1 says he'll still serve on the foundation, but this sounds sketchy to us. Additionally, an appeals court threw out a lawsuit against Motorola that relatives of firefighters killed during September 11 brought forth, claiming Motorola's faulty radios caused their deaths.

- Identity alert: Computer tapes that held the personal information of 600,000 past and present Time Warner employees were somehow lost by an outside storage company. The Secret Service is now involved, and we hope one of them uses the words "I'll be pissing on your grave" at some point.

- Crime: A man was found shot to death in a vacant Bronx apartment yesterday, and a woman was just found dead in Central Park from a stab wound at 107th and West Drive this afternoon. Also, the man killed on the Lower East Side Friday was actually only 16 - and his cellphone was broken.

The LMDC is unravelling faster than the Yankees. And I say, thank God! (And not just because I'm a Yankees fan).

Here's a link to the Time Warner press release and letter to employees regarding the lost employee data.
