I see this quite often along my walks to/from my office, though mostly with cinched filled baggies. The fine for public urination must be more than littering, though with the baggies and this cup, it should be a double penalty
--
In New York City, public urination is a civil offense, not a criminal offense, and is covered by Section 16-118 of the Administrative Code. First-time offenders can receive a fine of up to $75, with subsequent offenses within 12 months resulting in fines of $250–$350 for a second offense and $350–$450 for a third offense. Offenders will receive a civil ticket instead of a criminal summons and will not have a criminal record if found guilty. Administrative courts may also require offenders to perform community service.

Drawing is still basically the same as it has been since prehistoric times. It brings together man and the world. It lives through magic.

My neighborhood desperately needs additional supermarkets and for the past several years now there's been a huge influx of Asian citizens moving into the area. Whoever's responsible for constructing this Asian-centric supermarket is going to make a fortune

The flowers of many hydrangea act as natural pH indicators, sporting blue flowers when the soil is acidic and pink ones when the soil is alkaline.
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
~` Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25, 1803 – April 27, 1882), who went by his middle name Waldo, was an American essayist, lecturer, philosopher, minister, abolitionist, and poet who led the Transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century. He was seen as a champion of individualism and critical thinking, as well as a prescient critic of the countervailing pressures of society and conformity. Friedrich Nietzsche thought he was "the most gifted of the Americans," and Walt Whitman called Emerson his "master".

There's NO Parking on Sidewalks

It's so out of control. And some are placing their neon construction vests on the dashboard as proof they can just randomly do as they please, and are seemingly getting away with it. These vehicles are never towed, or even ticketed.
What if a disabled person needed to get past?
Or a citizen in a wheelchair for that matter?

William Tarr’s 1974 weathering Cor-Ten steel black sculpture stands atop the plaza of Martin Luther King Jr. High School down the street from Lincoln Center on the Upper West Side at 66th and Amsterdam. All four sides of this cube include important dates in the life of the civil rights leader as well as famous quotes.
The cube is also covered with lots of cryptic initials. BTWHS/MC/CTS/BU is a list of his schools: Booker T. Washington High School, Morehouse College, Crozer Theological School and Boston University. SCLC/MIA are the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and the Montgomery Improvement Association. On another side are the initials of his family: CSK is Coretta Scott King, and and a block with his four children: Yolanda King, Martin Luther King III, Dexter King and Bernice King. ‘RDA stands for the Rev. Ralph D. Abernathy; ‘JJ for the Rev. Jesse Jackson and ‘BR for Bayard Rustin. Among the dates in his life are 12/10/64, for his acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize and 4/4/68 for the date of his assassination.
“Let us be dissatisfied until every man can have food and material necessities for his body, culture and education for his mind, freedom and human dignity for his sprit.”

The Long Island City Clock Tower building had been constructed in 1927 by the Manhattan Company, a holding company that in 1955 merged with the Chase National Bank to create the Chase Manhattan Bank. For more than 60-years, the clock tower building had been the tallest commercial building in Queens, Until it was surpassed in 1990 by other structures, the building with the clock towered over the Queensborough Bridge and the elevated Flushing and Astoria subway lines running next to it.
In 2014, the Long Island City Clock Tower was purchased by developers, using land and air rights from the clock tower, as well as air rights from an adjacent lot owned by and purchased from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), a 77-story residential tower, Sven, was constructed by the Durst Organization.
Working with the Landmarks Preservation Commission, the Durst Organization hired a team of architects to restore the dilapidated glass and cast iron clock faces of this neo-Gothic tower. Those leading the project sought to swap the damaged frosted glass panels with a type of acrylic and replace the cast iron dials with aluminum—durable materials that can endure years in the elements.
The brown-brick landmark, with its castellated clocktower turret, will eventually be repurposed into a commercial and retail space.
Today was my first time tasting bubble tea (Passion fruit and green tea) and those tapioca pearls on the bottom of the glass reminded me of the frog eggs from The Mandalorian, which the Baby Yoda couldn't get enough of.

Brazilian Graffiti Artist Eduardo Kobra was offered an inviting wall 11 meters high by 17 wide, located just above the wall of the workshop and strategically positioned on the horizon of those who passed the High Line, the disabled railway branch that became a suspended park and one of the most popular points of Manhattan.
For this great panel, keeping his time machine in Times Square in 1945, Kobra recovered the best-known image of the celebration of the United States' victory over Japan in World War II, the sweeping kiss of sailor George Mendonsa and nurse Greta Friedman, and added a burst of color to Alfred Eisenstaedt's iconic photograph.
Instantly, the capital of the world gained a new tourist attraction: visitors started to flock to the High Line to click the Kiss, it was also pointed out as one of the 10 most photographed spots in selfies in New York.

Beautiful afternoon. Today I had an appointment in Kips Bay (on the eastside of Manhattan, NYC) though I still opted to ride the #7 train to its last stop in Manhattan, which is Hudson Yards, on the complete other side of Manhattan island from my appointment. There I walked 10 blocks south along the High Line, followed by 9 long avenues across town to 1st Avenue. Such a great walk. And it was so nice out, like an early Spring day.
