NEW YORK - In a sign of the times, the National Debt Clock in New York City has run out of digits to record the growing figure.
As a short-term fix, the digital dollar sign on the billboard-style clock near Times Square has been switched to a figure — the "1" in $10 trillion. It's marking the federal government's current debt at about $10.2 trillion.
The Durst Organization says it plans to update the sign next year by adding two digits. That will make it capable of tracking debt up to a quadrillion dollars.
The late Manhattan real estate developer Seymour Durst put the sign up in 1989 to call attention to what was then a $2.7 trillion debt.

O.J. Simpson, who went from American sports idol to celebrity-in-exile after he was acquitted of murder in 1995, was found guilty Friday of robbing two sports-memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room.
Simpson, 61, could spend the rest of his life in prison. Sentenced was set for Dec. 5.
A weary and somber Simpson released a heavy sigh as the charges were read by the clerk in Clark County District Court. He was immediately taken into custody.
The Hall of Fame football star was convicted of kidnapping, armed robbery and 10 other charges for gathering up five men a year ago and storming into a room at a hotel-casino, where the group seized several game balls, plaques and photos. Prosecutors said two of the men with him were armed; one of them said Simpson asked him to bring a gun.
The verdict came 13 years to the day after Simpson was cleared of murdering his ex-wife and a friend of hers in Los Angeles in one of the most sensational trials of the 20th century.Read the full story here
Vibe Magazine's 15th Anniversary collaboration with Adidas, the Adidas XVIBE Forum, was officially released on Sept. 25th, at select Adidas Originals stores worldwide. The overall design of the Adidas XBIVE 15th Anniversary Forum is inspired by the year 1993, the year that Vibe Magazine was founded. The Black upper symbolizes Power. To mark the 15th Anniversary of Vibe Magazine, Vibe dropped their infamous JUICE issue, a symbol of urban power. The upper is insipired by the early 90's wave of high end Italian fashion that hit Hip-Hop with artists like the late great Notorious B.I.G and Tupac rhyming and flossing in their Versace and gators. The insole features the text from Vibe's first letter from the editor. It reads:
“It’s took about 15 years for the mainstream to figure out that hip-hop is the most important music culture to emerge since rock ‘n’ roll, that its how a new generation communicates news, information, attitude, politics, fashion, style, rage, hope. It took Quincy Jones about 15 minutes to convince the people at TIME Publishing Ventures that hip-hop needed a voice. We think that Voice should be VIBE.”
The Adidas XVIBE 15th Anniversary Forum will also be available on adidas.com soon.Article Source : kixandthecity.com (Visit the site to see more pix)
