Wasn't it Pier 56, not 36?

the comments in the story about the Russian Orthodox Crosses being chopped down are kinda scary

At least NBC didn't confuse him with Stretch Armstrong.

I too wondered about Questionland, but there was no place to ask about it!

He pollutes the Internet with false book reviews, among other:

Suddenly it hit him. Instead of trying to cajole others to review a client’s work, why not cut out the middleman and write the review himself? Then it would say exactly what the client wanted — that it was a terrific book.

The audience has dwindled to a few diehards and multiple posters.

@9, in all locations across all cities in which Questionland existed? We're just curious where it went.

Ever since the redesign, Questionland went downhill. For the last 6 months or so, it seems like it was on autopilot with little or no staff involvement. I always wanted to ask the question, "What killed Questionland?" but I didn't want to be a downer.

Anyway, I get the sense someone just stopped paying the bills, including for the URL.

A bit more news from the Bain Doc drop. The story has the wonky bits, but this paragraph gives the gist...

"When he wins, he's paying a 15 percent rate on the gain. When he loses, he's writing it off at 35 percent, meaning that tax policy is subsidizing Romney's risk in his Bain investments."

"But it's unclear how else police are supposed to respond in life-threatening situations."
How about start with:
-stop deifying the police so this mindset goes away and
-training them not to fire willynilly into a crowd!

Given the obvious misspelling in this I can only assume Cienna actually wrote today's Morning News piece

This is exactly what we want to make those with private capital invest.

Yes he writes off 35%, but it means he takes a 65% loss on the types of business ventures that creates jobs.

@3, 6, 7, 10, I emailed Marty Unger about this last week (23rd), he replied saying something about server problems and hopes to have it fixed soon.
@11, 12, 9; I really don't think that Q'Land would just be taken offline, without some sort of poll or question being asked beforehand!

If it's taking them 5+ days to deal with "server troubles" then either they have no idea what they're doing or else there's some other cause that they haven't revealed.
