Earlier this month, Bloomberg reported that Mayor Eric Adams was planning to stack the Rent Guidelines Board with a bevy of his own appointees on his way out of office in an effort to block Zohran Mamdani's agenda to freeze rent for rent-stabilized tenants. Then, on Friday afternoon, the New York Post reported that one board appointee Adams was considering was Eleonora Srugo, the Douglas Elliman luxury real estate agent, Adams confidante, and star of the first (and only) season of the Netflix reality show "Selling the City."
"He has versatility, toughness on both ends of the floor," Brown said. "He can [make plays] for himself and others. Gets us organized. "He had a really good game defensively [Friday] night for the most part, and then during the first stretch, he was really good offensively. In the second half, he wasn't as good. But he's a young guy and he's going to learn and grow from any minutes that he gets."

Brewster's No Kings rally Saturday drew more than 4,000 people, bringing almost twice as many protesters to GOP Representative Mike Lawler's district than its June event in Mount Kisco did. It was the largest rally in Brewster's history. Nationally, rally co-organizer Indivisible announced that these events drew 7 million people, also twice the June number. I'd say Lawler should be a bit nervous.
There are two ways a doctor can treat a patient. He or she can of course prescribe medicine or solutions of any kind. You go in with a janked elbow, the doctor can offer an X-ray and medication and the whole kit and caboodle. Or, of course, if you go in with a janked elbow and tell the doctor, "it hurts when I move it this way," the doctor can say, "don't move it that way."

And to the extent that we have leases, we are going to be subleasing those, a source close to the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) told the news outlet.

Almost two years after the MTA announced it would begin a pilot program using its on-board bus cameras to ticket drivers who block bike lanes, the pilot still hasn't surfaced - and it's unclear if the agency has any plans to make it happen. The state in 2023 expanded the MTA's ability to use its bus-mounted cameras to ticket drivers outside of bus lanes - double parked on bus routes, parked in bus stops and even blocking bike lanes.
The modern NBA is about spacing. Perhaps once upon a time it was about strength and size and moxie, but the name of the game in this century is spacing.
