now, the good news for folks like me who are now in new york instead of visiting new york is that that out-of-town dollar helps support a very large infrastructure. thirty-five thousand cops is a lot of cops, for example, and bringing that tourist dollar here is -- works. and new york city tourists and hotels had a record year last year. so people are coming in record numbers even in tough times because they like -- >> and paying the prices. >> and paying the price. >> you said 35,000 cops? has the number gone down from 50? >> it actually went from 40 to 35. >> another thing, and i've been coming to new york a number of years, this time i noticed -- i know this isn't new. i was here during the strike of the sanitation workers, but three times a week you see these huge piles on the street, on the sidewalk of green bags full of garbage and they're put out there at night and they're picked up sometime the next day. why is that? >> well, there's a mixture here. some of those are commercial trash and some are city trash, you know? there's -- we're just -- it's a very dense city, lots of fol

you were on board as deputy mayor of new york city. what is the difference in being an operations deputy mayor than the rest of them? some where you said you'd rather have somebody else's debbie meier job. >> one thing that drew me to new york is i wanted to start -- somebody else is the deputy mayor job. one deputy mayor has done some remarkable stuff on homelessness and affordable housing. she does social services and someone else does education and economic development. i do the mechanics of government, police, fire, sanitation, budget. when i had it been interviewed by a "the times, go i said i would be happy to trade places with her. >> there are 50,000 policemen here, which is bigger than all of the government of indianapolis. >> there are more police officers and their art total employees of indianapolis -- then there are total employees of indianapolis, yes. there are up about 350,000 public employees in new york. that means one out of every 2.5 people in indianapolis would be a public employee in new york. >> how many people r

at new york's kennedy international airport. air france flight 7, a super jumbo jet headed to paris, was taxiing to its runway when its left wing clipped the tail of a much smaller comair commuter jet, spinning it around almost 90 degrees. >> we've been hit by air france. >> reporter: the air france plane was an airbus a380, the world's largest commercial jet. its 262-foot wingspan is nearly the length of a football field. and 50 feet wider than the wingspan of a 747. and the airbus dwarfs the regional jet it hit at more than twice its length. >> this is the worst taxway collision i've ever seen. it's not unusual to have a couple aircraft touch wing tips. but to see such a forceful collision and an aircraft spinning around, that's remarkable. >> reporter: aviation experts who have reviewed the recording say the commuter jet was still on the taxiway because it appears the area by the gates was too crowded. >> the pilots themselves, they need to be looking out very, very carefully when they are operating an aircraft as large as th

it is like new york, i'm sure there are places people go. what we do on the last monday of january -- we send out 500 volunteers dressed as vagrants, and we assign them to different places around the city where you might find homeless, and we send out 2000 volunteers who go all night and tried to count, and we assume we get the same percentage of the actual population as the decoys, and it has been coming down about 13% each year. i have not got the numbers for this year yet. we should be getting them in the next few weeks, but it is a great challenge, and we have about 2500 people living on the streets of new york city, and almost all of them, we interface with. they have emotional problems or psychiatric or addiction problems. there is no simple answers. there are people who just need help, and it is hard to reach out to them. from what i have heard about the mayor, he has a real compassion for people, and that is what you need, someone who is going to do that. >> what advice would you give our new mayor to try to keep his head above water

york and i mention that only because of the the new york the new york city smoking ban that will soon be implemented because that is something that has not been implemented anywhere else throughout the country in terms of not being allowed to smoke in public places such as parks but clauses this essentially allows fines to be written out day after day after day i mean this is the crossroads of the world you have so many people coming here from all over the country from all over the world foreigners that won't know the laws they won't know that they can't light up in times square and when they do they will be slapped with a fifty dollar fine lot of money that the city can generate and then addition i think you mentioned this in your report a lot of times if they do light up when they finish their package they want to new one it's not thirteen dollars for a new one so certainly they're also believe all these little ways to bring the money and very important i.r.c. correspondent in our new york studio and from paying fines to paying for a lot of turns out these days that's an option or a

this is new york. basically, work hard, become very skilled in your trade or in your profession and make money in the process. but then give money back to the community. and finally, in this idea of cosmopolitanism. read shakespeare, read milton, read wordsworth and have a sense of the entire world. so what i think is really important to think of here is the way in which when we say black-american or african-american, you know, an image immediately comes to mind, and i -- kind of static. what i want to point out is the very dynamic process of making identity in this period. people have been kidnapped from and brought enslaved to the new world, to the united states, to america, to the united states, to new york. and they didn't become black-american or african-americans overnight, but the the a process of struggle. and that was -- of trying to forge identity. and that's what the schooling was all about. so to pass on that circle number one, to pass on circle number two is the, um, black community it wit

the lives of my new york forebears'. they were born free at a time when slavery was still legal in new york state. they lived in racially mixed neighborhoods, first in lower manhattan and then after the civil war in brooklyn at a time when harlem was a mere village. they were part of new york's small but significant community and specifically its elite class so, the first in polls for my writing the book was my desire to overturn these assumptions, assumptions that we live with almost on a daily basis. therefore to point to the significance of the black elite in new york city. so it was a professional and polls, if you will. the second boat is from the epigraph of the prologue. it is from toni morrison's beloved. denver was seeing it now and feeling it. the more fine point she made the more details provided the more beloved elected. so she anticipated the questions by giving blood to the scraps of her mother and grandmother told. denver spoke, beloved listened. the two did the best they could to create what really happen

york state before the civil war denotes a place of freedom, that lacks in new york city designate harlem, that the black community posits a classless and culturally unified society, that a black elites did not exist until well into the 20th century. .. to point to the significance of the black elite in new york city. so it was a professional impulse that you will. the second is from the epilogue prologue from toni morrison's beloved. the more fine point she made, the more detail should provide it, the more beloved like it. so she anticipated the questions by giving blood and scratched her grandmother told her in the heart beat. denver spoke, beloved listened in the two did the best they could to create what really happened, how it really was a mossad paperfolding view because she alone had the mind for it in the time afterward to shape it. so the second quote points to one of my great concerns in writing about come to the idea to recover my family's past, my great, great grandparents and so forth and realizing they were their memories and not my memories. so how could i tell the story of
