New York City, officially named the City of New York, is the most populous city in the United States, and the most densely populated major city in North America. The city is at the center of international finance, politics, entertainment, and culture, and is one of the world’s major global cities (along with London, Tokyo and Paris) with a virtually unrivaled collection of museums, galleries, performance venues, media outlets, international corporations, and stock exchanges. The city is also home to the United Nations, along with all of the international missions associated with it.

Tourism is a major local industry, with hundreds of attractions and 39 million tourists visiting the city each year on average. Many visitors make it a point to visit Ground Zero, the Empire State Building, Times Square, Radio City Music Hall, the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Wall Street, United Nations Headquarters, the American Museum of Natural History, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Fifth Avenue, and the Brooklyn Bridge, among other attractions. There are over 28,000 acres (113 km²) of parkland found throughout New York City, comprising over 1,700 separate parks and playgrounds. The best known of these is Central Park, which is one of the finest examples of landscape architecture in the world, as well as a major source of recreation for New Yorkers and tourists alike. Other major parks in the city include Riverside Park, Battery Park, Bryant Park, Prospect Park, Flushing Meadow-Corona Park, Washington Square Park, and Forest Park.

Museums & Art Galleries

New York is a city of great museums with the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s assemblage of historic art, the Museum of Modern Art and Guggenheim Museum’s 20th century collection, and the American Museum of Natural History and its Hayden Planetarium focusing on the sciences. There are also many smaller specialty museums, from El Museo del Barrio with a focus on Latin American cultures to the Cooper-Hewitt National Museum of Design. A number of the city’s museums are located along the Museum Mile section of Fifth Avenue.

In addition to these museums, the city is also home to a vast array of spaces for opera, symphony, and dance performances. The largest of these is Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, which is actually a complex of buildings housing 12 separate companies, including the New York Philharmonic, the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Opera, the New York City Ballet, and Jazz at Lincoln Center. Other notable performance halls include Carnegie Hall, Radio City Music Hall, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music. New York City boasts a highly active and influential theater district, which is centered around Times Square in Manhattan. It serves both as the center of the American theater industry, and as a major attraction for visitors from around the world. Broadway theaters are considered to be of the highest quality in the world.

Shopping

Shopping is popular with many visitors, with Fifth Avenue being a famous shopping corridor for luxury items. Macy’s, the nation’s largest department store, and the surrounding area of Herald Square are a major destination for more moderately-priced goods. In recent years 23rd Street has become a major location for “big-box” retailers. In southern Manhattan, Greenwich Village is home to hundreds of independent music and book stores, while the East Village continues to prevail as purveyors of all things “strange” and unusual which you can’t find anywhere else. The “diamond district” (located on 47th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues) is the city’s main location for jewelry shopping, and SoHo, formerly the center of the New York art scene, is now famous for high-priced clothing boutiques, and the art galleries are now concentrated in Chelsea. There are also large shopping districts found in Downtown Brooklyn and along Queens Boulevard in Queens.

Food & Drink

New York is the best restaurant town in USA and one of the finest in the world. New York has literally thousands of restaurants to choose from (more than 25,000, in fact), encompassing nearly every cuisine in the world. Some of the big names are Eleven Madison Park, The River Café, Boat Basin Café, Veritas. Like restaurants, thousands of bars and cafes are there in the city. A few old noteworthy among those are: McSorleys Old Ale House, Revival, Push Café and White Horse Tavern.

Universities

New York City is served by the publicly run City University of New York (CUNY), the largest urban university in the United States, which has a number of campuses throughout the five boroughs. The city is also home to a number of other institutions of higher learning, some of national or even international reputation, including Columbia University, Fordham University, Manhattan College, New York University, the Juilliard School, The Cooper Union, Marymount Manhattan College and The New School. New York City is also a major center of academic medicine. Manhattan contains the campuses of the world-class Rockefeller University, Weill Cornell Medical College, and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, as well as Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center and NYU Medical Center and their medical schools. New York City is home to several of the nation’s top schools of art and design, including Pratt Institute, the School of Visual Arts, the Fashion Institute of Technology, and Parsons School of Design

Sports

Although in much of the rest of the country American football has become the most popular professional sport, in New York City baseball arguably still stirs the most passion and interest. A “Subway Series” between city teams is a time of great excitement, and any World Series championship by either the New York Yankees or the New York Mets is considered to be worthy of the highest celebration, including a ticker-tape parade for the victorious team.

Hotels & Accommodation

The City of New York is known as the “city that never sleeps”, but its visitors have to. The city hosts a large number of accommodations options.

How do you book the right flight to Paris from New York City? Which airlines have the least delays and which is the best way to go for the money? Flights to Paris all leave at night, which means any hang-ups the airport suffers throughout the day will affect your departure. Make sure you give yourself enough time for TSA security since the evening international flights tend to clog the checkpoints. Try to get through security between 10am and 2pm when the fewest flights depart. An option is to pay $100 per year and sign up for Clear Registered Travel. With this benefit, you can access a dedicated lane and you will not even have to remove your shoes. Clear has lanes at Terminals 1, 4 and 7 at JFK and Terminal B at Newark.

Even the best direct flights from JFK and Newark land on schedule less than 50 percent of the time. The best airline is Delta from JFK to Charles de Gaulle which leaves at 5pm, early enough to avoid some of the cascading delays of the evening. On a positive note, an Air France flight departing at 10:55pm have an average delay of only 30 minutes.

The diamond of the bunch is new luxury airline, LAvion. The company owns a single jet which leaves Newark six days a week at 7:05pm and lands at Orly at 7:45pm, 95 percent of the time. The luxury comes with a hefty price tag of $1,083.00 which guarantees you a comfortable business class flight. This is your only option with LAvion since the aircraft only caters to the business class flights. In comparison to other business class flights to Paris, LAvion is the best bet not only in being punctual but comfort. LAvion return flight leaves Paris at 2:50pm and arrives in Newark at 5:45pm. The flight to Paris to avoid at all costs is Air France 6pm departure which is delayed over 80 percent of the time.

Finally in Paris, a little jet-lagged but ready to go. Whatever you do, avoid falling asleep. This will truly spin the top of your body clock in Paris. My other tip is to avoid hotels at all costs. If your wallet allows, treat yourself to a first rate Paris luxe apartment. Paris Luxe has an extensive portfolio of magazine quality Paris apartments. For those not blessed with extra dollars, opt for the more reasonably price, Book Your Paris Apartment. These apartments are clean, centrally located and will not leave any holes burning in your pants.

PRIESTER

Sarah Martin asked:


The young company of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company was growing with vigor. Not a local or a sectional, but a national service was envisioned. At the close of 1879 the company had 124 agents in its service. By the end of the next year the number had increased to 637. At the close of 1884 there were 1,566 Agents operating in 56 different key centers.

The vast tenancy of busy cities of the United States and Canada had been opened to industrial insurance. Many of the pioneer superintendents who served this new territory were to become leading figures in the company, not only as great producers but as trainers of men. Over the years, some had the satisfaction of “graduating” a great many trained superintendents.

The speed with which the business grew reflected the real need of the people for this type of insurance. The existing old line organizations had afforded them neither the insurance nor the service that they required. Yet the need for protection was urgent, and the company was obviously able to meet it. In no other way can we explain the fact that a business with limited resources, which had barely survived the panic difficulties of the 1870’s, could in a decade have attained major size.

The firmest kind of a foundation had been laid. When the company moved from its home office in Park Place to the new quarters on Madison Square in 1893, there were in operation 146 district offices with nearly 8,000 superintendents, assistants, and agents serving a clientele whose industrial insurance in force included nearly 3,000,000 policies for close to $350,000,000, not to mention the potential future policies for health insurance providers.(http://cheap-insurance-rates.com/health/)

It was not that the Metropolitan alone enjoyed such extraordinary expansion. The Prudential, operating from Newark, soon got into vigorous stride, as did the John Hancock. An increasing number of companies subsequently began to cultivate the field, because of the insistent demand of wage earners everywhere for insurance they could afford and on a weekly basis. Its availability in small units-a policy could be bought for a minimum weekly premium of 5 cents or less-and its method of servicing made it unique and desirable.

Throughout the years this form of insurance continued to spread, reaching all parts of the Nation. Eventually in the United States and Canada there were 90,000,000 industrial policies in force in more than 100 companies, for a total of $22,000,000,000. About 50,000,000 people were insured, more than twice the number owning ordinary insurance. A large proportion of the country’s total industrial clientele, more than 22,000,000, are insured in the Metropolitan.

It must not be supposed that this has been an adventure without its trials and difficulties. Many companies failed in their effort to write industrial insurance and opted to move on to other areas of insurance, such as insurance for pregnancy. Furthermore, there is little doubt that in the case of some other companies the insurance would have been lost to thousands of policyholders had not the Metropolitan come to their rescue by assuming the business. But, as shown in earlier chapters, the company survived its own difficulties and continued to grow, so that by the end of 1909 it had more aggregate insurance (ordinary and industrial) in force than any other company, a position which it has held ever since.

In tracing the major developments in the industrial business during the course of the 60 odd years since its inception, one sees that the change in the policy itself has been primary. The contracts of today, with their wide range of privileges and benefits to the policyholder, are related in name only to the policies first issued. Step by step the Industrial contract has been liberalized, resulting in a revolutionary change in this branch of the business. The lack of experience in this country made the inauguration of industrial insurance a venture into the more or less unknown, so that it was natural that the early policies should be hedged about with restrictive clauses.

For any misstatement in the application, the early insurance could be voided by the company at any time during the life of the insured. A policy once lapsed for nonpayment of premiums carried no provision for reinstatement and no cash or paid up values. However, as experience was gained, such restrictive clauses were eliminated or liberalized, and policy provisions and practices were adopted which provided more and more benefits and a wider range of services to the insured. It is gratifying to note that this development has taken place not alone in the Metropolitan but in the business as a whole.

Police ID two arrested in Newark fatal shootings
by William Kleinknecht/The Star-Ledger
Monday October 27, 2008, 5:29 PM

Police today identified two people arrested in a string of shootings in Newark last week and said their rampage — which left two people dead — was linked to gangs and narcotics.

Scott Banks and Nashon Brown, both 20-year-old Newark residents, were arrested Saturday and charged with the shooting deaths of two people and the wounding of another over a half-hour period on Friday.
Scott Banks and Nashon Brown

Essex County Prosecutor Paula Dow, who joined Newark Mayor Cory Booker and Police Director Garry McCarthy at a news conference today, said both defendants were believed to be linked to gangs.
Tony Kurdzuk/The Star-LedgerNewark Mayor Corey Booker speaks during a news conference this afternoon. Also shown are Police Director Garry McCarthy (left), Essex County Prosecutor Paula Dow (2nd from right) and Police Chief Anthony Campos.

“There were strong drug and gang overtones in these events,” said McCarthy, adding that exactly what set off the violence is still being investigated.

The incidents began at 2:15 p.m. Friday, when shots were fired by occupants of a white Infiniti sport utility vehicle at the South Boyden housing complex in the city’s South Ward. No was struck by the shots.

The same vehicle was linked to three others shooting incidents. At 2:36 p.m., Quadir Burroughs, 22, was shot and fatally wounded on Ridgewood Avenue. A 27-year-old man was wounded at 2:36 p.m. at Clinton and Chadwick avenues, and Angelina Evans, 24, was found shot to death on Boyd Street at 2:45 p.m.

Police chased the Infiniti at one point on Friday but lost sight of the vehicle after it pulled onto Route 78. Booker and McCarthy said today that cameras police have mounted in various points around the city recorded portions of the chase and helped lead to the arrests.

They would not elaborate for fear of alerting criminals to the locations of the cameras.

Booker said he wanted to make clear that the city’s homicide rate has been down 40 percent so far this year, and Friday’s incidents were not random drive-by shootings and were not linked to gang initiation.

“These were not random drive-by shootings,” Booker said. “These were individuals shooting at other individuals who were targeted for assassination.”
