What Sadiq Khan’s election means to British Muslims
The appointment of a new mayor of London was always going to be a historic moment, but the announcement that it would be Sadiq Khan – the first Muslim to take on the job – had even more significance. It is a victory that, according to Khan himself, sends a strong message to all “the haters in Iraq and in Syria”, showing that the city is a beacon of tolerance and respect. But what does it mean for those living in the country? We asked British Muslims about the significance of this for their community and the UK as a whole. Navid Akhtar, 48, London: I hope this will reaffirm that Muslims are no different to anyone else This is a watershed moment in which the disengaged and cynical among us have to accept that we have one of the world’s fairest societies. I voted for him as I am looking for a return to centrism. The world is becoming increasingly polarised and that is a scary prospect for people like me who have dual heritage. I am a proud Londoner born … [Read more...] about What Sadiq Khan’s election means to British Muslims
Shale bonanza means US oil production at a 50-year high
Three years ago, the US shale oil boom appeared to be over, apparently starved to death when OPEC flooded the market with cheap oil. As prices plummeted from over $100 (€81) to $40 a barrel, shale oil production — the drilling and hydraulic fracturing (fracking) of unconventional oil deposits found in shale formations — quickly became uneconomic. In just under a year, more than 130 US shale producers, from Pennsylvania to North Dakota, declared bankruptcy, leaving tens of thousands of American oil workers without jobs. But the highly cyclical nature of the energy sector, and a rebound in oil prices to more than $60 a barrel, have helped revive the fortunes of most US shale producers almost as quickly as they stalled.

EXCLUSIVE – The mean streets of 1980s Bushwick: Blocks of burned out buildings and piles of garbage captured by photographer who worked at a public school in the Brooklyn neighborhood during a time of rocketing crime rates
Dozens of abandoned buildings, piles of bricks, drug paraphernalia and trash could often be found block after block during the 1980s in Brooklyn’s neighborhood of Bushwick. It was the norm; this was the period when crack was king. Certain areas of Bushwick along with neighboring communities of East New York and Cypress Hills were dubbed a ‘KILLING GROUND’ in a New York Post front page story as it was reported that at least one person was murdered every 63 hours. It took years for city officials and police officers to clean up the streets, and now those communities are hipster havens filled with pricey real estate and a variety of eateries to dine at. Renowned photographer Meryl Meisler captured hundreds of images showcasing both urban decay and also how residents thrived among the destruction in 1980s Bushwick. Her photos of the popular neighborhood are showcased within her book, A Tale of Two Cities: Disco Era Bushwick. Speaking to DailyMail.com, Meisler, … [Read more...] about EXCLUSIVE – The mean streets of 1980s Bushwick: Blocks of burned out buildings and piles of garbage captured by photographer who worked at a public school in the Brooklyn neighborhood during a time of rocketing crime rates
