New York City's many Chinatowns

This isn't breaking news, but I thought it was interesting: Queens has two Chinatowns, Flushing and Elmhurst, and Flushing has a larger Chinese population than Manhattan's Chinatown. Brooklyn also has its own Chinatown in Sunset Park, which is dominated by immigrants from Fujian Province. This is not to be confused with Little Fuzhou, an enclave in Manhattan's Chinatown of immigrants from the capital and largest city of Fujian Province. There is apparently a budding Chinatown in Edison, NJ, though it's more like a downsized version of Monterey Park rather than the traditional crowded urban Chinatowns. Monterey Park was the first suburban Chinatown, which has expanded such that Asians constitute a majority of the population of the sprawling San Gabriel Valley east of Los Angeles (which, of course, has a more traditional downtown Chinatown).

Links: sex, assassination, and drug war wins and losses

I'm gonna try something new – a list of links! This is mostly so that I can practice being concise.

1. Apparently Bill Clinton had a girlfriend during Hillary's presidential campaign. Gawker demands to know who.

2. New Jersey legalizes medical marijuana (first state in the Northeast to do so), but definitely will not go the way of California.

3. "Medvedev tells FSB to 'regularly' kill rebels," quoteth the Moscow Times.

4. Chewing tobacco and snus are "10-1,000 times less hazardous than smoking" says Britain’s Royal College of Physicians, but tobacco companies are legally forbidden from advertising this fact (constitutionality to be determined).
