Will NYC See the Billions of Cicadas Emerging in Brood X?

The emergence of the cicadas might be most noticeable by their size and sound. Cicadas surface in large numbers, gathered together to protect themselves against their many predators. And their mating calls can t be missed, as the males call out to attract the females in hopes of laying eggs. Then, the adults die out making way for the next generation. Cicada nymphs that hatch will burrow underground until the brood s return in 2038. New York City and much of its surrounding suburbs will probably be sitting this round out. Parts of New Jersey, meanwhile, especially the state s central and southern counties are projected to see a cicada emergence.

Auditors: Building UConn Hartford campus cost $30M more than budgeted

Construction of University of Connecticut’s Hartford campus ran $30 million over budget, state auditors reported. Nearly $30 million in construction cost overruns on the University of Connecticut’s Hartford campus topped a list of contracting issues that sparked criticism Tuesday from the state auditors’ office. UConn’s new downtown Hartford campus, located in the former Hartford Times building, opened in August 2017 at a cost of $116.7 million, 34% greater than the project budget, Auditor John C. Geragosian wrote.  Construction and renovations combined originally were priced at $87 million, and a guaranteed maximum price eventually was set at nearly $98 million. But after the university adjusted the contract 24 times, involving 283 construction-related changes, the price tag ballooned, according to the legislature’s fiscal watchdog agency, the audit reports.
