As designs continue to roll out, it will be crucial to keep the public engaged, so that the new business developments will only enhance the community, and not isolate members from their beloved neighborhoods. Kathleen Treed, of the Hell's Kitchen Neighborhood Association, believes that this is a "fabulous example of working towards community benefit." This truly is an example of a community working together to beautify a shared space, while still working to increase its overall functionality and safety to improve the lives of the residents and visitors within its proximity. It is more important now than ever to show your support or opposition to the projects as they continue to develop from designs on paper into reality.

As the cityscape of Manhattan continues to change, it is crucial that we do not loose focus on the human aspect of life here in the city. So many are concerned with how business is doing, or how well the traffic congestion is faring; but, we cannot loose sight of those in the trenches -- those on the street everyday. Recent events on 9th Ave. have made it quite clear that there needs to be greater attention spent on how pedestrian traffic fall into the equation of a new, modern Manhattan.

The streets need to be safe for all New Yorkers to live, work, and enjoy the iconic streets...

As research continues into this relatively new and unexamined area of pharmaceutical potential, it is likely that many profound new discoveries will be made. One particular piece of
The significant natural deposits in rural areas are water, wildlife, woodlands and the environment as a whole. Rural areas like Bulilima-mangwe in Matabeleland, Mutoko and Kariba have actually had effective ecological plans that have actually brought to life the Communal Areas Management Program for Indigenous Resources (CAMPFIRE) which has concentrated on the development of neighborhood organizations particularly in rural areas for the management and sustainable usage of communal wildlife
Community and Social Justice Since the establishment of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), it has continued to be engaged with human rights as proven by the struggle for decolonization, self-determination, and independence of the African continent. Embodied with this, obviously, is the fact that those fighting and agitating for independence sought human right principles to justify their struggle because colonialism disregarded human rights of the colonized persons. In contrast to

Vocabulary, Practices, and Proficiencies: I began going to the gym earlier in the day before the prime-time hours between approximately 5:00 PM and 8:00 PM during which the general energy level and rhythm of the gym increased and it became the most crowded.
