REUTERS/Ibraheem Abu Mustafa Acquire Licensing RightsOct 27 (Reuters) - Hundreds of protesters demanding a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas forced the closure on Friday of Grand Central Terminal, one of New York City's major transit hubs, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority said. "Grand Central Terminal is closed until further notice due to a protest," the MTA said on its website, urging commuters to use alternate stations and plan for extra travel time. Israel's military widened its air and ground attacks on the Palestinian enclave of Gaza on Friday. Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that rules Gaza, said its militants were ready to confront Israeli attacks with "full force."

On Thursday, Vinicius Funes, a 26-year-old migrant from Honduras, went in search of a bed. He had spent two nights waiting in a chair at New York City’s official arrival center for migrants at the Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown Manhattan. But it turned out to be a “reticketing” office, where the city buys migrants a one-way passage out of town. There were no beds there either, though, just a big waiting room. Mr. Funes spent the night on the floor.

Hundreds of protesters calling for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war streamed into Grand Central Terminal in Midtown Manhattan on Friday, in one of the largest protests New York City has seen since the start of the conflict three weeks ago. The demonstration, organized by Jewish Voice for Peace, came as Israel ramped up its military operations inside Gaza. The protesters filled the train station, chanting, “Cease-fire now” and “Let Gaza live.” Most wore black shirts that read “not in our name.” One police officer estimated that there were as many as 1,000 protesters. Steve Auerbach, a pediatrician in the city, said he was concerned about the children caught in the middle of the conflict. “Calling for a cease-fire should be considered a mainstream, normative position.”Banners declaring “Palestinians should be free” and “Israelis demand cease-fire now” were unfurled over stairwell banisters in the terminal.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Before opening the World Series, the Arizona Diamondbacks wanted to recount a series of slights. Overlooked by oddsmakers and angered by analysts, the Diamondbacks find themselves in a Surprise Series against the also unexpected Texas Rangers. Texas starts Nathan Eovaldi, a 33-year-old right-hander and a two-time All-Star who has overcome two Tommy John surgeries. “We weren’t concerned with what people thought of us,” said first-year Rangers manager Bruce Bochy who led San Francisco to three titles from 2010-14. The Diamondbacks have allowed three unearned runs during the postseason and the Rangers one.

U.S. Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) speaks at the National Action Network’s (NAN) three-day annual national convention on April 07, 2022 in New York City. Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., indicated Wednesday that he will plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge for pulling a fire alarm in a congressional building on Capitol Hill last month. Bowman has agreed to pay the maximum fine of $1,000 for one misdemeanor count of falsely pulling a fire alarm — a charge that carries a maximum penalty of six months in jail. After the vote, Bowman said, he also met with the sergeant at arms and Capitol Police at their request and explained what happened. "I want to be very clear, this was not me, in any way, trying to delay any vote," Bowman said.

☆ Homebuyers must earn more than $400,000 to afford a home in the 2 priciest metro areas — and New York isn’t one of them
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-25 | by ( Ana Teresa Solá | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

"The Bay Area has consistently been one of the most expensive markets in the country," said Daryl Fairweather, chief economist at Redfin. Why the New York metro area is low on the listMidtown Manhattan, New York, as seen from Hoboken, New Jersey. That's because the metro area goes beyond Manhattan and the city's four other boroughs, extending into nearby counties. "Even though Manhattan is really expensive, once you get to the outlying areas [in] the New York metro area, it actually becomes quite affordable," said Fairweather. Interested homebuyers in the region still need to earn six figures annually to afford a home, about $197,734, Redfin estimates.

NEW YORK (AP) — A man was trapped inside a steel-reinforced concrete jewelry vault in New York City overnight after firefighters had to abandon an attempt to rescue him for safety reasons. Fortunately, the vault was on a timer and opened on its own Wednesday morning, officials said. Sarrocco did not explain how the man became trapped. Fire and police department personnel were in communication with the man inside the vault and could watch him on a security camera. “The process was started to breach the wall at the vault,” he said in a news conference at the scene.

☆ How Morgan Stanley exec Ted Pick rose from 'rough edged' deal junkie to CEO

Editor's note: Morgan Stanley announced on October 25 that Ted Pick would replace James Gorman as CEO. Employees knew they were getting promoted if Pick told them to wear a tie the following day, an ex-managing director recalled. While Morgan Stanley currently trades at a premium among its Wall Street peers, its enviable success isn't thanks to Pick. Gonzalo Marroquin/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images Show less Morgan Stanley investment management head and dark horse in the race for CEO, Dan Simkowitz. Despite enjoying the stock price gains under Gorman's reign, plenty of longtime employees want another dyed-in-the-wool Morgan Stanley loyalist, according to a former senior executive.

In 2001, following the 9/11 terror attacks, anti-Muslim motivated crimes became the second highest reported among religious-bias incidents, according to FBI data. Two of the attackers have been charged with assault and menacing as a hate crime; four others remain at large, according to the complaint. She was charged with assault as a hate crime, and other charges, the complaint states. A 28-year-old man was arrested this week and charged with a hate crime and aggravated assault. “Hate crime is still down but since the incident in Gaza, there has been an uptick,” Kenny said.

☆ US Court Challenges Trump Appeal in Rape Accuser E. Jean Carroll's Case
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Oct. | At P.M. | ) www.usnews.com time to read: +4 min

Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan challenged Trump's lawyer Michael Madaio during oral arguments in Trump's appeals of pivotal rulings by U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan. Carroll's lawyer Joshua Matz rejected any suggestion that Trump could not waive absolute immunity because "broader structural considerations" were at play. "A party who believes that they are holding onto absolute immunity from suit does not behave the way that Mr. Trump behaved it his case." The appeals court did not say when it will rule. The appeals court could order Trump to pay damages and costs if it ends up agreeing with the judge.

HENRY TAYLOR How the figurative painter made portraiture the dominant mode of art in our era — and changed the way America sees itself. It was Henry Taylor doing Henry Taylor, like a pop star in his Vegas residency phase. A few seasons earlier, for Miu Miu’s spring 2022 collection, Prada delivered raw-edge chino micro-miniskirts belted below the hip bone.

On Monday night in Midtown Manhattan, Neil Patrick Harris, Nicky Hilton Rothschild and Michael Kors danced in their seats, as J. Harrison Ghee, the Broadway actor, sang Aretha Franklin’s classic “Freeway of Love.”Ghee’s performance opened the 17th annual Golden Heart Awards, the major fall fund-raiser for God’s Love We Deliver, an organization that provides medically tailored meals to New Yorkers affected by severe illness, which was founded in 1986 during the AIDS epidemic. “I think that we have to honor, and make noise about, organizations that can cut through the noise and make a difference,” said Mr. Kors, a co-chair of the event and a board member of the organization. The evening honored the Broadway star Ben Platt for excellence in the arts and the actress Scarlett Johansson for philanthropy and activism.

Chants of “Free, Free Palestine” echoed through Times Square in Midtown Manhattan on Friday as Palestinian supporters, waving signs and green, red, black and white flags, filled three blocks along Broadway near 42nd Street. “I support a free Palestine, but I don’t condone the attacks from Hamas, no way,” said Marcelo Taboada, who is from Buenos Aires and attended the pro-Palestinian rally. “Nobody who defends the Palestinian cause seriously could support what Hamas did.”

☆ Millennium isn't Schonfeld's only suitor. Investors like Blackstone and Abu Dhabi's wealth fund are also in the picture, as the deal is far from certain.

The message was that a tie-up with Millennium was a 50-50 proposition and that any agreement would be contingent on Schonfeld remaining independent. Other strategic investors in the mix include Blackstone, GIC, and Future Fund, an Australian sovereign wealth vehicle that's already a significant Schonfeld investor. Schonfeld's assets have dipped this year amid meager returns, and the fund has cut costs and slowed hiring in recent months. But fundraising from cautious institutional investors is time-consuming, and Millennium chief trading officer Mark Meskin contacted Schonfeld's leadership to discuss a potential tie-up, sources say. Schonfeld, industry sources say, was likely under pressure from existing investors, who have had to bear a higher brunt of the fees following redemptions.

And New York City has had success transforming single-use office districts, most notably Lower Manhattan's financial district, into more vibrant mixed-use places. Times Square is one of those, according to Tom Harris, president of the Times Square Alliance, which represents the district's businesses. AdvertisementAdvertisement"I'm not negating it, but certainly the opportunities south of Times Square, to the west of Times Square, are a little bit better for development of the housing stock," he said. The mix of businesses around Times Square has changed in a way that could be appealing to potential residents. Times Square lost 179 businesses during the pandemic, but has since welcomed more than 180 new businesses into the neighborhood, according to the Times Square Alliance.

☆ Trump gets kicked off Forbes 400 list of richest Americans

New York CNN Business —As Donald Trump scrambles to defend his business empire in court, the former president has suffered another blow: dropping off The Forbes 400 list of the richest Americans. Unlike the steady or growing fortunes of Forbes 400 leaders Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Larry Ellison, Trump’s net worth took a double-digit hit. Trump launched Truth Social in February 2022, envisioning it as a credible threat to Facebook and Twitter. Trump was previously booted from The Forbes 400 in 2021 and in 1990 when he faced severe financial stress. As Forbes notes, Trump “lied” to the magazine in a successful effort to make the Forbes 400.

☆ Biden Said He Would Stop Drilling. Then Reality Hit.

Tens of thousands of climate protesters who filled Midtown Manhattan last week directed their anger at President Biden, who has done more to combat climate change than any of his predecessors. But in their view, he has failed in one important way: Mr. Biden has not stopped oil and gas drilling on public lands and in federal waters, as he pledged as a candidate in 2020. Mr. Biden’s promise of “no new drilling, period,” began to dissolve just months after he took office as he confronted a hard reality: The executive may oversee millions of acres of federal property but Congress and the courts can have the final say. “There’s a delicate dance here,” said Michael Gerrard, director of the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law at Columbia University. “There’s a gap between what some advocates want the president to do, and what he can actually do, especially given a conservative Supreme Court, a hostile House of Representatives and a divided Senate.”

Many of the formal speeches delivered before the green stone in the General Assembly could have been performed straight to camera, with few other people in the room (and in 2020, they were). The General Assembly, she said, actually “overshadows what the U.N. does well." In-person relations are as important, if not more so, for non-governmental organizations with stakes in the outcomes, attendees said. Many at the General Assembly, and those observing it closely from afar, declined to discuss the substance of negotiations that may never ultimately come to fruition. But the General Assembly week “provides a critical mass that allows you to do all the things that you would prefer to do in person,” Rathke said.

NEW YORK (AP) — Inside the U.N.'s gates, world leaders use the spotlight to talk — to each other and the entire planet. Nonprofit organizations send their senior leaders to the sidelines of the U.N.
