In a recently unearthed clip of Cindy McCain she makes the claim "none of this negative stuff, you won't see that come out of our side at all." This statement would prove untrue, as the Senator would release not, one, not two, not three, but four negative ads.
Watch Mrs. McCain and the negative ads below:
A plan to give tax exemptions to people who rehabilitate vacant homes in Syracuse got the green light Wednesday from Gov. David Paterson.
Paterson signed a bill that will grant people who buy vacant city homes or lots seven years of full city and school tax exemption on the value they add to the property. After seven years of 100 percent exemption, owners would receive three years of smaller exemptions.
Tax benefits would improve if owners or developers meet the U.S. Green Building Council's standards on energy efficiency and environmental design when building or renovating.
The goal of the legislation, requested by Mayor Matt Driscoll and the Syracuse Common Council, is to spark development of blighted city properties.
Sen. John DeFrancisco, R-Syracuse, and Assemblywoman Joan Christensen, D-Syracuse, sponsored the bill in the state Legislature.
Got directions but want to walk the distance instead of driving? Well, we're glad to see that Google Maps has now added a new walking option for directions, thanks to popular demand. Similar to getting driving directions, after entering your origin and destination, click "Walking" at the top left panel. You can see an example of this in action here. You can also drag the purple line around if you want to go by another specific route. Done, and done. (But maybe they will add a bicycling option soon.)
