New York's Finest Sweep Up Streets







New York's Finest Sweep Up Streets

New York's Finest Sweep Up Streets 09/02/2004 01:52 PM

Protests at RNC test appropriate response
An eyewitness account by I Can't Believe Its A Democracy - "I just have to pause here for a moment to make an observation. How many times have I seen an interview with an arrested protester who claimed he or she had done nothing to provoke the police. Almost always my reaction has been, "Yeah, sure." Only now I was seeing this very situation unfold in front of my eyes. These protesters, while certainly noisy, had obeyed police instructions down the entire length of the street. Now they were being treated as if they had gotten wildly out of control, but they hadn't. I know, because I was there."

Another account from Captain Normal (also an eyewitness and even got arrested and held for 24 hours without being charged or being able to contact a lawyer) discusses a family of French tourists caught up in the sweep as well as some of the other residents of "Gitmo on the Hudson".

New York's golden age


New York's golden age 01/02/2005 06:28 PM

The NY Times recently asked a few New Yorkers which era they would nominate as New York's golden age. Like Greg, I thought Bill T. Jones' answer was the most penetrating:

Right after 9/11.

New York had a true reappraisal of itself at a tragic and introspective moment. New York had the attention of the whole world; it was a frightening moment. But the world was ready to follow, to assist.

It lasted a few months. We were vulnerable and open to the rest of the world, and we were ready for a change. There was a chance to ask questions, and it was a time when we were forced to do so.

But it didn't happen. There wasn't a true conversation about what America means to the rest of the world or about why New York was chosen. It was an opportunity. And then the politicians took it.

That last sentence is a doozy, isn't it? It saddens me to think that in times when we need to have open and honest communication to heal wounds and investigate opportunities, we instead let ourselves get caught up with the marketing of powerful men.

TheyWorkForYou.com -- a project from the FaxYourMP team -- has launched today. This is the most amazing, subversive piece of political webware I've ever seen. It scrapes the Parliamentary record and makes the entire thing commentable, searchable and permalinkable. It compiles stats of which MPs vote against their parties most often, which ones speak most often, which have made the most motions and so forth. I've been beta-testing it and the code and UI are brilliant. It's like they've poured Parliament into LiveJournal -- and in so doing, have cutg overnment down to a human-addressable scale. We need one of these in every country in the world. Link

website: "We are truly the finest of all

04/11/2005 05:12 PM
Mark Frauenfelder: A Boing Boing reader read my earlier entry about text greeking and sent me a hilarious anecdote. He designed a website for a restaurant called Windows On the Bay. The client had not yet given him the copy for the site, so he filled the page with what he describes as "incredibly overblown, remarkably pretentious text."

He says the client ended up using the copy!

Windows on the Bay is the finest restaurant on the Jersey Shore. We are the alpha and the omega in seashore dining and freshly prepared gourmet seafood. No other restaurant in New Jersey looks out over such a commanding view. We are truly the finest of all possible restaurants.

Our chefs have all been trained at the finest schools in the world, and they put every ounce of that training to work for you. We create each made-to-order dish fresh and put every ounce of our considerable skill and knowledge to work to make you the best meal possible.

Our highly-trained wait staff are here to serve your every need. They are ready to bend their skills and energy to every table, every serving; you will be waited on as you have never been waited on before.

We are sure you will come back for more. Once you've come to Windows on the Bay, you will never want to leave.
