NYU Langone is one of at least six hospitals in the United States to make such deals, including Mount Sinai Health System in New York City. Family members of trans youth and LGBTQ+ advocates say the network of health care resources for trans youth has been shrinking rapidly on both the city and federal levels.

Lieber said that the $800 million climate resiliency project has begun with the awarding of a contract for the design of an estimated $270 million project to protect the Hudson Line from Spuyten Duyvil in the Bronx to Hastings-on-Hudson. He said that segment of track has experienced repeated impacts from storms. He said that assets that are in poor condition such as culverts and retaining walls will be repaired and expanded along with shoreline structure rehabilitation and implementing flood protection measures.

IMO, this all seems like regular maintenance items and not really "climate" related. With that said, love to see the investment

Indian Point already possesses something extraordinarily valuable that cannot simply be recreated overnight: an established high-capacity connection to the electric grid in the heart of the Lower Hudson Valley.

For decades, the site delivered approximately 2,000 megawatts into one of the most energy-intensive regions in the country. The transmission corridors, substations, interconnections and other infrastructure necessary to move enormous amounts of electricity are already there.

Meanwhile, New York is spending billions of dollars on new transmission projects to move electricity from where it is generated to where it is needed in Westchester and New York City. Building major transmission infrastructure is extraordinarily expensive and can take years of planning, permitting and construction.

Before spending billions more building elsewhere, shouldn't we determine what can safely and economically be accomplished with the infrastructure we already have?

The argument appears to be even without a PWR at Indian Point, it's conceivable the connection to the grid is still a valuable piece of infrastructure that could be used to tie in another type of generation

Giants are 2.5 to 3-point underdogs, with the over/under total set around 48.5 points.

  • Dallas has a new defensive coordinator
  • Malik Nabers status for week 1 is unknown
  • New to big-blue veteran coach

What do we think? Can Harbaugh's Giants outmaneuver a defense that's still learning its own playbook?

Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins said, “Every child deserves access to a strong educational foundation, and every parent deserves the peace of mind that comes with knowing their child is in a high-quality learning environment. By expanding these opportunities, we are helping our youngest learners build the skills they need to succeed, while providing working families with meaningful support to balance the demands of raising a family and working towards a solid future. This investment in universal Pre-K is a major step forward for children and families across Westchester, and I thank Governor Hochul for her leadership on this.”

Village of Tuckahoe Mayor Cara Kronen said, "Governor Hochul’s investment in universal pre-K will make a meaningful difference for families in the Village of Tuckahoe and across New York State. Expanding pre-K will help ensure that all of our youngest learners, regardless of their families’ income or circumstances, have access to high-quality, nurturing early childhood education while providing essential support to working families"

With all the crazy shit going on nowadays, I love that we still have the wisdom to spend money on children and families.

“We’ve been monitoring the building for many hours and have not seen any movement,” Ahmed Tigani, commissioner of the New York City Department of Buildings, said during a news conference Tuesday.

By nighttime, residents were allowed back into several of the seven buildings that were evacuated as a precaution. [...]
