I know you must be new to our country but please refrain from calling the Port Authority Police "junior mall cops" especially when 9-11 is right around the corner. Many of the PAPD died and suffered when the Twin Towers fell on 9-11 2001 due to foreign terrorists reeking havoc on our soil. This is insulting and offensive you should be ashamed. I hope this comment gets deleted before 9-11 approaches.

I don't know, but it's both hilarious and kind of pathetic that they're calling it "The Mansion".

I thought so too, until I did a little research and found it it was a mansion before it was a funeral home.

Some time in November. Optimistically sooner, but our beer fridge means we have to deal with permits for electric and hvac, which will take some time.

This is never addressed at community meetings and rarely brought up durring political campaigns. We should be rallying to have uniformed zoned parking throughout the city, no fee parking on streets, first come first serve non reserved street parking, and have out-of -towners park on one side for a limited amount of time unless they get a visitor pass. I never get a straight answer from the PA on these issues.

Is it possible that the second largest city in New Jersey doesn?t get that culture and the arts are the major economic driver?

Happy to.

I heard of the event at a downtown gallery opening. I saw a flyer and decided to audition at the downtown one. I listened to the other auditioners' proposed topics and was blown away by so many interesting perspectives and solid presenters. I've heard the same about the other 2 locations as well.

My understanding is that while TedX JC may be associated by "name only," as you write, that actually means a lot... in other words, TedX is extremely particular about what is allowed to be called a TedX event, and the organizers are jumping through hoops to be able to bring this event to JC.

Eventually all of the TedX JC presentations will be housed on the primary TedX web site and it could be a promotional opportunity for JC.

Oh, and suck it.

And it's a group of diverse, open-minded people, including hipsters, who want to share ideas, knowledge, etc. So you probably wouldn't fit in.

This also means pedestrians need to follow the Walk signals. They are always ignored at Columbus and Grove and at the entrance of Shoprite.

Like I said before, and SteveWilson blissfully ignored: putting up any sort of stop sign, traffic light, etc., requires a lot of effort. But, OK. Carry on. I am sure you can debate this to death over the next few days. You will not get a stop sign anytime soon. That's a fact.

How hard is it to put in STOP signs? Apparently, as hard as replacing damaged trash cans. In other words, almost impossible.

We went last night; I can confirm they're delicious. There's a reason the line for rice balls is 5x as long than for any other food.

That sounds awful.
