GOOD DAY FOR: Not being the boss, as a federal jury ordered Madison Square Garden to pay former New York Knicks executive Anucha Browne Sanders $11.6 million for sexual harassment and wrongful termination. The jury found that Knicks coach Isiah Thomas sexually harassed Sanders, but ordered MSG chairman James Dolan to pay a $3 million legal penalty. (USA Today)
BAD DAY FOR: Seeing green, as advocacy groups for the blind are complaining about the dangers of gas-electric hybrid cars, which run almost silently in electric mode. The National Federation of the Blind tested hybrids by having blind people listen for when different hybrid models passed by. “People were making comments like, ‘When are they going to start the test?’” said the NFB’s Deborah Kent Stein.
