There is this: CEO Pay Shrank Most Since Financial Crisis And this: In New York, Super Amenities Are a Double-Edged Sword As a side note, I’ve been in love with this building, One57, ever since I first saw the schematics in the Wall Street Journal years ago… wow …
You don’t have to hate taxes and the services taxes pay for to realize that this is just completely screwed up. The annual GDP of the entire country is about $17 trillion and the federal budget is $4 trillion. This is crazy.
I finally got a chance to watch “Spectre” last night. I didn’t see it in the theatre because it was roundly – and soundly – panned. I disagree. Yes, it was long – 2:28 minutes. Yes, it meandered a bit. But I followed the plot easily and figured out the clincher about halfway through – … Read more
Oh Paul, such a silly boy, clearly that bike accident has really gone to your head … Send comedians to fight ISIS? When they cut off the heads of journalists, it’s just because they haven’t had a good laugh lately … What’s the saying, again? Oh, yeah, shut up and sing.

We also can’t have a real strategy to prepare for the future, either. Check out this report from “60 Minutes” on Sunday night. All the … Read more
Yes, it has. New York presidential primary memories … We’re living the crazy 2016 mayhem … but 1992? Jerry Brown beats Bill Clinton in the Connecticut primary by 3 percent in a shock victory after Clinton got caught playing at an all-white golf course. Paul Tsongas jumped back in, at the urging of many of … Read more
RIP, Barbara Anderson. I will never forget the help she gave us when we took on nearly every public and private interest to save Fenway Park from demolition. While we didn’t agree on everything, she was often complimentary of my work, posting a number of my investigatory pieces on their site and in their newsletter. … Read more
I love this idea! Planes Drop Seed Bombs! This and the construction of desalination plants all over the world, to bring fresh water and an oasis to the deserts, immediately, are the only ways to combat potential climate change issues and sea water elevations.
