That sounded like an urban myth to me. Sure enough: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_Europe#Vatican_State Vatican City does not have its own Age of Consent - it is the same as Italy, wh...
Actually, that's the whole point of an unlimited card - it is to both reward you for using and encourage you to use transit more often. And that's true of most if not all mass transit systems that hav...
The 2nd link has more complete plans. The grade would be steady from both side, rising to the same level as the current TZB (needed to permit shipping) - the more gradual grade would both permit train...
So, what the Partnership is saying is that there are so few advantages to locating in NYC that having to pay sick leave will keep business away. Right. Last time I checked NYC was the world's leading ...
What the freak is the big deal? I have been eating bagels for (almost) all of my 53 years. I grew up Jewish in Jewish communities in and around NYC. There is nothing wrong with wanting to eat less, bu...

A lot of us rode single speed bikes (not fixies) then - there was no "bike culture" and we rode the used bikes that we bought for $5 or $10 from Bikes by George on E. 12th St. Bikes were just how we a...
I was inclined to side with the consultant: y'know, c'mon, have some lenience and let him finish the tea. But after reading his blog, I have no sympathy. He's all about just how cool "I worked for 5 ...
Totally NOT a waste! I live near the 1st Ave station on the L - I often look at the clock and use it decide whether I should wait for the train or take the bus or walk. For instance, I know that it's ...
All of you haters say what you will, but if you have an emergency on the West Side of Manhattan just hope that it's not so serious that going to farther away hospital won't be the difference in whethe...
That's sumac, not ailanthus....
