New Pop Manifesto is out!! 
The Netherlands, which for years has fought the encroaching ocean, is now considering how to embrace the waters in future city design, Reuters reports.
A number of prototypes for floating cities are being considered. Indeed, the Netherlands may well become a laboratory for such thinking.
A goal is to be able to remove or relocate a building without harming the surrounding environment.
More info and a video here.
When viral video hit the internet, slain 27 year old Iranian protester, Neda (above) , becomes a symbol for Iran's current political unrest.

1. Plastic bottles only. If you wouldn’t call it a bottle, it doesn’t get recycled. Yogurt containers, restaurant delivery containers and plastic cups do not make the cut. Plastic shopping bags technically don’t go with the plastic recycling, but they'll get sorted out along the way.
2. Recycle anything more than 50% metal. And it's okay to leave the labels on as they burn away when the metal is smelted.
3. Glass bottles and jars only.
4. Milk and juice cartons go in the bin with the plastic, glass and metal.
5. Recycle any and all paper, staples and all. They'll get sorted out later.
Check out NYC's Department of Sanitation for more recycling guidelines.
