New York Magazine's Vulture has a great video series called "The Deep End" in which producer Mady Mills finds out out how hard it is to make it in New York City by trying various careers she has no experience with whatsoever. In this recent video from the series, watch as she learns what it takes to be a waitress at the Junior's Restaurant Times Square location. No it's not the original (and better) location, but admittedly, it is probably a lot tougher to wait on tourists than on Brooklynites.

What does it take to make it as a waitress in New York? I have no idea. I’ve never been a server and I’m extremely prone to spills. Regardless, I decided to find out. So I tried to become a server at Junior’s, a restaurant in the city known for its cheesecake. It wasn’t pretty.

The Williams Energy Company plans on installing a fracked gas pipeline to bring heat to New York City Residents, despite the clear need to convert to renewable heating energy. If approved, the pipeline will run through New York Harbor, right by Breezy Point, Coney Island, and the Rockaways. If it bursts, harmful pollutants that are difficult to detect will be released into the water, adding to the waste that has already affected the harbor.

In this video from BRIC TV, hear from the New York Communities for Change, the SANE Energy Project, and the NYC Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation about how the proposed pipeline will impact New Yorkers, especially low-income and coastal residents.
