"If you were strolling by the Hudson County waterfront Monday night, as we were, you may have noticed the Empire State Building lit up in more than its usual one or two-color scheme.
It had at least four colors going. And do you want to know why?
It's "tie-dye" to celebrate the upcoming Grateful Dead exhibit at the New York Historical Society, which will open in March of 2010, according to the New York Times.
Only thing missing from the building: A touch of grey."
Does anyone have any other pictures of this? I think that this is awesome. The Grateful Dead and New York City go hand in hand. The very first time I went to NYC was to see the Grateful Dead at Madison Square Gardens."If you were strolling by the Hudson County waterfront Monday night, as we were,... more

The Empire State Building's publicists inform us -- like they're proud of it! -- that tomorrow ESB will glow red and yellow to honor the 60th Anniversary of the People's Republic of China. At 10 a.m. members of the Consul General of the People's Republic, including Consul General Peng Keyu, will "flip the light switch on a scale model of the Empire State Building," and either America will blow up or the lights will go on.
All right, let's roll out the outrage! "Empire State Building, Drenched in Blood" cries the Buffalohair Gazette International."The yellow will represent the cowardly conduct of a nation who has chosen to rape and murder Falun Gong members as well as the Uyghur People of Turkistan."
We were ready to accept this explanation, but in "New York to Honor 60 Years of Communism," Doctor Bulldog & Ronin informs us it's for the stars in the Chinese flag. "Now, I don't pretend to understand the inner machinations of the Libtard mind," DB&R adds, "...but isn't the color yellow considered racist when used in connection with the Chinese?" Say, he's got a point! Somebody tell Governor Paterson!...
"First, we had the Red Chinese COMMUNIST government Flag flying at the Marxist House on 2.20.09," says Snooper's Take Our Country Back (no idea -- maybe he means this?).

I was hanging out with a friend in SoHo and areas not too far away and brought along my camera. Afterwards, I headed to northwestern Bergen County, New Jersey for dinner with my parents and spotted some goslings after I got off of the highway. So, I jumped out of my car and ran down the sidewalk to capture the cuteness as a bonus for this gallery (and my personal enjoyment). Check out these photographs taken on Sunday, May 24, 2009.I was hanging out with a friend in SoHo and areas not too far away and brought along... more

One of the world's most famous skyscrapers - the Empire State building in New York - is going green.
A project is underway to reduce the amount of energy used in the building by more than a third, saving millions of dollars a year.
This green makeover is part of a $500m (£340m) refit which the building's owners hope will attract bigger companies paying higher rents.
Former President Bill Clinton's Climate Initiative has helped fund the project.
Mr Clinton and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg say the changes should be a model for other buildings around the world to follow.
Some 13,000 people use the Empire State Building every day - including the many visitors to the world famous landmark's observatory.
The work will include a layer of film added to each of the 102-storey building's 6,500 windows, insulation behind radiators and improved lighting, ventilation and air conditioning.
People working in the building will be able to use the internet to monitor how much energy is being used, and where.
The plan is to cut the amount of energy used by 38% per year, saving $4.4m.One of the world's most famous skyscrapers - the Empire State building in New... more
