CNN —Travelers looking to rent an apartment for a few days in New York City will find slimmer pickings now that city officials have started enforcing new rules cracking down on short-term rentals. Airbnb has called the rules a “de facto ban” on short-term rentals (STRs) that will hurt hosts and the tourism economy. The requirements for approval are strict and follow laws that pre-date the new registration rules. Hanson said that long-term average hotel occupancy in New York City is between 80% and 85%, well above the national average between 62% and 67%. Thousands of listings across various booking sites will be affected as the new registration rules are enforced.

☆ Când Isus nu e Hristos. Evanghelia după Liiceanu
▼ + stars: | 2020-05-26 | by ( Mihail Neamtu | ) adevarul.ro time to read: +9 min

De aici şi tristeţea noastră, ba chiar dezamăgirea şi gustul amar: deşi scrisă îngrijit, ultima carte a lui Gabriel Liiceanu e mai puţin o meditaţie despre Salvator Mundi, cât o răfuială cu scăderile, neputinţele sau erorile creştinismului instituţional. Nici la acest volum Gabriel Liiceanu nu simte nevoia să facă vreo referinţă. Dincolo însă de pedanteria obiecţiilor academice, îi reproşăm autorului altceva: faptul că n-a înţeles că, vrei, nu vrei, atunci când vorbeşti despre Iisus faci teologie. Gabriel Liiceanu accesează un Isus altfel — un personaj special, dezvăluit filozofului prin mecanisme hermeneutice străine „habotnicilor”, „pocăiţilor” sau „pupătorilor de moaşte” (cum e la modă să fie numiţi creştinii în lumea bună). De ce tocmai Iisus a afirmat: „Înainte de Avraam, «Eu sunt... »” – iată un enunţ de-o greutate ontologică lipsită de răspuns din partea filozofului.
