Never wanting to miss out in this world&#8217;s never ending pissing contest which has gone on for so long Dubai unveiled its newest and tallest $1.5 billion building this past weekend, the Burj Dubai. Considering the excesses that have come from this country in the past this monstrous tribute to overkill and squandering should come as a surprise to no one. Let&#8217;s face it, in the dictionary next to the word &#8216;waste&#8217; should be a small depiction of this country&#8217;s map. 
Can they possibly outdo themselves any further? Hmmm, give them time since I&#8217;m sure they&#8217;ll come up with something.
Let&#8217;s see, their past, present and future construction projects include the Burj Al Arab, a hotel which at one point was the second tallest structure, or first since heck, who can even keep track?; the Dubai Sunny Mountain Ski dome which is just as you imagined, an indoor ski resort in ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Public vs. Private
Some years ago I had been approached by security while trying to photograph the Christmas tree outside the Bloomberg Tower on 58th Street. The guard&#8217;s argument was that no professional photography was allowed at that location. I clumsily argued that I wasn&#8217;t a pro yet the fellow made references to my professional looking equipment and asked me if I thought him stupid. Well, I did but of course diplomatic me [cough, cough] didn&#8217;t argue and instead asked him what was an acceptable location for my snapping of photos. He pointed to the street as well as the sidewalk across the street. Apparently in his mind, simply being on the sidewalk outside the building with my gear was enough to warrant suspicion.
Let&#8217;s forget about the harebrained notion that I was going to obtain top secret information through the overhead windows with my wide angle lens. Hmmm, have I mentioned ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re on the edge of that time of year again. Wherein we say goodbye to the old and welcome in the new. The New Year that is. Unfortunately there&#8217;s quite a bit of precipitation predicted for that evening here in NYC. Of course if past years are any indication then bad weather won&#8217;t keep the tens of thousands from celebrating in Times Square which&#8217;ll have live performances, great fun, the ball dropping and some pyrotechnic displays.
On ABC Dick Clark&#8217;s Rockin&#8217; Eve festivities will begin at 10:00 pm as the tens if not hundreds of thousands in Times Square await the drop of the ball at midnight. Hosting the show will be Mr. New Year&#8217;s Eve himself, Dick Clark as well as Ryan Seacrest. Also on hand will be performances by Jennifer Lopez who is expected to sing some of her own hits and Daughtry who&#8217;s to perform four songs. Through ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Photography in NYC &#38; Terrorism? &#8211; Part I
A recent posting in Telegraph.co.uk struck a chord in this author&#8217;s mind. Actually it&#8217;s a complaint in the form of a letter from 365 of Britain&#8217;s most distinguished photographers asking for the modification of that country&#8217;s anti-terrorist legislation. Apparently they&#8217;re finding themselves harassed by authorities on the other side of the pond.The above mentioned notion of photography being likened to terrorism has been on the mind of yours truly and many other NYC photographers for some time. Yet perhaps not on the same level or is it? You see, walking around with a camera in hand isn&#8217;t the problem. The trouble lies with the use of tripods in public and private spots, and the lines drawn between the two are quite thin. But I&#8217;ll get back to that soon. I would like to approach this from various angles through this multi-part posting on ...]]></description>

A recent article on FoxNews.com titled &#8216;Obama&#8217;s Push for Copenhagen Deal Could Violate Constitution, Critics Say&#8217; deals with the very prospect of Barack Obama&#8217;s signing of any binding treaty in Copenhagen and the Constitutional violations thereof. A subject brushed upon not so long ago by Lord Christopher Monckton when he addressed the Minnesota Free Market Institute and talked about the ceding of America&#8217;s Sovereignty. 
Here&#8217;s this excerpted paragraph from the article stating the following: 

&#34;&#34;Who will President Obama heed?&#34; Vince Haley, vice president of policy at American Solutions for Winning the Future, wrote in an opinion article published in FoxNews.com. &#34;The American people and our constitutional system of checks and balances, or the collection of dictators, tyrants, and most undemocratic heads of government convened by the United Nations in Copenhagen this week?&#34;
