The World Trade Center death toll includes three victims who died of respiratory disease months to years after 9/11 and whose deaths were reclassified as homicides by the New York City medical examiner's office because of the victims' exposure to World Trade Center dust at the time of the twin towers' collapse.

Collapse denies Man City title party in front of United
MANCHESTER, England — Manchester City fans were in tears, consoling each other with hugs in the stands as Manchester United reveled in its neighbor’s misery. Tears were supposed to flow on Saturday. Tears of joy. For City’s third English Premier League trophy in six years. The setup couldn’t be sweeter for City.United, the 20-time English champion in whose shadow City has lived for so long, was in City’s Etihad Stadium fortress for the title clincher and derby. What could possibly go wrong? Nothing in the first half. By halftime, City looked to have wrapped up the league title in record time with a 2-0 lead, shredding United apart with goals from captain Vincent Kompany and Ilkay Gundogan in a six-minute span. United was being embarrassed. Then they swapped ends and it all went wrong. United scored three times without reply and won 3-2. The home fans reacted as if the clock had been wound back two decades when City was relegated in successive seasons. … [Read more...] about Collapse denies Man City title party in front of United
Manchester City 1 Chelsea 0: Bernardo Silva strikes as champions hand over title with barely a fight
This was the Premier League champions against the champions-elect and the gulf felt even greater than the extraordinary 25 points that now separates fifth-placed Chelsea from top-of-the-table Manchester City. One of the songs sung by the City fans is “we’re not really here”, a reminder of the days in the late 1990s when they were a third-tier team, but it was Chelsea who were not really here for this fixture. Their travelling supporters, who sarcastically cheered when their team finally won a corner after 42 minutes, will have wondered what this was all about because it was a 1-0 hammering with the reaction of their star player, Eden Hazard, summing it all up. Asked to play, again, as a ‘false’ number nine he ambled around disbelievingly as the ball sailed over his head until he was eventually substituted late on. Hazard then failed to acknowledge head coach Antonio Conte and although the Italian will point to the narrowness of the scoreline as some kind … [Read more...] about Manchester City 1 Chelsea 0: Bernardo Silva strikes as champions hand over title with barely a fight
Man City think they’ve taken high ground on Sanchez but Utd have landed a coup
MANCHESTER CITY might well think they have taken the moral high ground in the battle for Alexis Sanchez. The truth is they have been dealt a major blow. Not one that is going to knock them off course this season as they are already over the hill and far away in this title race. But there is no doubt the nearest side to them has been empowered by the signing of the Chilean forward. City claimed they had pulled out of the race because the wages for the player, due to his contract situation, were excessive. They have been estimated at around £505,000 a week. Given the amount of money City have shelled out left, right and centre since Sheikh Mansour’s takeover in 2008, it does seem odd that now they have decided to rein it in. Or was this damage limitation because Sanchez had decided it was Manchester United who wanted him more? After all, they did not quibble about the deal after the Etihad had appeared to be his destination of choice. United just went out and got him. City … [Read more...] about Man City think they’ve taken high ground on Sanchez but Utd have landed a coup
