Happy New Year 2014
As usual, the famed crystal ball dropped in a freezing New York City’s Times Square to ring in 2014. Bronx-born U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor led the 60-second countdown and pushed the button that unleashed the shimmering orb, a role usually filled by the New York City mayor. Mayor Michael Bloomberg, on his last day in office, was sitting the celebration out after 12 years on the job.
