NYC Bomb Correlation to WTC Mosque?

NYC Bomb Correlation to WTC Mosque?

This is a picture I was able to take of the vehicle involved in the bomb scare at 51st and Park avenue in New York City.  It pains me to think that this is related to Park 51, the new name of the WTC Mosque.

Summertime, Summerblues, Cape Cod Blues

So here we go into what I like to call deep summer, days are getting shorter, there might be another heatwave of two in store, storms are brewing in the Atlantic..only a little less than a month left of summer. You can feel the season winding down. But the sunsets we shared, the walks along that magnificent beach out in the Provincelands…the pictures we took, those will last longer. This post’s a personal one, for my friends who share photos of their world and for my friends who share sunsets with me.

A warning for Tea Party members coming to DC

A warning for Tea Party members coming to DC

Bruce Majors’ blog post giving Tea Party members a guide to DC was not racist, although it basically said to avoid black neighborhoods (I DID read the whole post). The post was, however, extremely ignorant, disrespectful, and flat out wrong towards people in my neighborhood (I live on the Green Line) as well as DC’s immigrant community.

Mourning and praying at hostage crisis aftermath

Mourning and praying at hostage crisis aftermath

Filipino mourners visited the bullet-riddled bus and offered flowers and prayers for the tourists who were killed. Some relatives of the deceased came to the site to pray for the souls of their loved ones. The relatives were not allowed to go near the bus so a police officer instead took the flowers from the relatives and placed them on a makeshift memorial on the right side of the bus.

The tourist bus which was the subject of the hostage drama is now cordoned off, while people flock to see and mourn with the tragedy. Flowers were placed near the bus by government official who gave respect to the victims, as various media from both local and foreign stations take pictures and do live coverage in the site. The background is the Quirino Grandstand, the place for civil parades, and where the President of the Philippines usually takes the oath of office.
