Explosion shatters windows of Starbucks
'Low order improvised device' hits NYC coffee shop; no injuries reported

 
NEW YORK - An explosion shattered the windows of a Starbucks coffee shop in New York City, but no injuries were reported.

Police were trying to determine what type of device caused the blast early Monday morning at the intersection of 92nd Street and Third Avenue on Manhattan's Upper East Side, New York Police Department Lt. Mike Wyosokowski said.

The explosion occurred at around 3:30 a.m., when the coffee shop was closed.

Seven people were evacuated from the building above the store, but all returned home, a Police Commissioner Kelly told NBC affiliate WNBC.

There was “no message, no note, no advanced phone call,” he said, adding that the blast was caused by a “low order improvised device.”

Police swept the area but no other devices were found and the area seemed safe, WNBC reported.

The city has experienced other predawn explosions in recent years at the British and Mexican consulates and at a military recruiting station in Times Square.

Often times when I talk to peo and I tell them I from trini..they like why you leave?..gov't killing your peo?(Tamil), your country is dirt poor?(the list to long)..aids rampant?(long list)..one child policy?(China)..religious oppression?(long list)...War and ethnic cleansing(Iraq,Europe)...uh should hear these peo horror stories.....we have it nice...(if uh ask me is the very countries they run to that causing Trinidad's "destruction"...BET.MTV,50 CENT,Paris Hilton,doh even talk about their political and economic policies) .it does really get me vex when "trinis" in foreign whine about conditions back home when they have know idea the privileged position they in..... they don't even entertain the idea of going back and contributing to the land of their birth..the same land they "big up" occasionally when the situations suits them...stueps

Exactly. Some of the comments here very shameful.

[verycute1]

Just out of curiosity.... those calling for foreign based trinis to help, what do you  believe foreign based trinis should be doing to help the country, that the local based can't do for themselves?

And I don't mean like start a business or something like that because we had a discussion going in a next thread about how people don't want to work so immigrants coming to T&T to do the jobs trinis won't do. SO starting a business that may be staffed by immigrants probably won't "help" local trinis at all.  So what exactly are you looking for?

[verycute1]

Yeah I was asking my mom about the SOL there and she said she doesn't know how anyone making minimum survives. She was talking to a young couple, both teachers, renting, and have 1 child and she said that they told her it's a bit of a struggle, living month to month. I was trying to get an idea of what the minimum income would be that i would need to be able to return and survive comfortably so that I could play stay at home mom and have both kiddies go to school there. Keep getting conflicting figures though.

Kansas’ minimum wage to change from $2.65 to $7.25 on Jan. 1

By Scott Rothschild

April 23, 2009

Topeka — The lowest state minimum wage in the country is about to become history.

Gov. Kathleen Sebelius on Thursday signed into law a bill that on Jan. 1 will increase the Kansas state minimum wage of $2.65 per hour to the federal minimum wage, which will be $7.25 per hour.



Calling the increase long overdue, Sebelius added, “While the state minimum wage only applies to a small sector of Kansas’ work force, to them and their families, this legislation is critically important.

“Our economy must return to its core principle that an honest day’s work brings home an honest day’s pay, and today we’re taking a step in that direction.”

Democrats have long fought for an increase in the state minimum wage, but had been stymied by the Kansas Chamber and Republicans, who control the Legislature.

This year, however, several Republican legislators said they were tired of being criticized for the $2.65 per hour minimum and pushed, along with Democrats and fair-wage advocates, for the increase.

House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence said the increase was needed to help families and the economy.

“If we want to recover from these difficult times and help Kansans move themselves out of poverty, we must start by guaranteeing a wage that dignifies work,” Davis said.

State Sen. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, was a sponsor of the bill calling for an increase.

Labor officials said about 19,000 Kansans were making below the federal minimum wage. Companies that have less than $500,000 a year in annual revenue and don’t engage in interstate commerce are exempt from the federal level.

The $2.65 per hour Kansas state minimum wage is the lowest of 45 states that have a state minimum and hasn’t been increased since 1988.

The government not doing anything to protect the businesses in T&T and it will have problems down the road if this continues.

Even bank tellers revealing to kidnappers how much money you have in the bank. And Police turning the other cheek.
