Her bad practice is from the bad old days of somewhere. Maybe here. It's still a "different cultural norm" in that it's an outmoded one.

Death will "cure" it, because it cures all ills. Which is to say, some people may be too far gone.

The rest of us will use bins.

read the last line of the article....now go back to kindergarten and learn your numbers...16 is higher than 14....just saying....

I am aware of the comstat #'s as well, I was just referring to the past week, I know that everyone love to include Montgomery projects in downtown but for all intents and purposes Downtown ends at the highway.

Somebody has there numbers wrong check out this map

http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2009 ... e_map_details_08_hud.html

I don't get what the point of the map is? Yes the Heights had a few more murders then Downtown in 2008. The year before that Downtown had two more then the Heights. I don't get your point that doesn't change my stats in any way. The fact remains other then burglaries there is more crime Downtown then the Heights. Which you didn't believe to be true.

As far as the border I believe we had that discussion already in the past so if it helps you sleep better at night, then believe what you want. At the end of the day the city is still going to have its original borders.

We'll see what happens in the next five years. My money is on Downtown.

I have to agree with mwa, that nobody really considers the other side of the Turnpike to be Downtown. It may be the "official" designation, but in look and feel (plus the fact that it's separated by a friggin' highway), in my opinion, it's really not Downtown. Also the Holland Gardens is "technically" downtown, on 16th Street, but who the hell really considers that to be Downtown? I'd bet that 50-75% of "Downtown Crime" occurs in or near these 2 projects that are "technically" downtown...but nobody really considers them to be Downtown.

Was this the only thing you were able to dig up on any town around Manville? You better keep digging. See if you can find anything on New Providence while you're at it. In the meantime, I hope you'll be at the next meet and greet, if there is ever one again. So we can compare and contrast our gene pools and all!

Am I missing something? But the new Hilton hotel does not look anything like the renderings - it is another ugly box.

I am sick and tired of deceptive renderings!

First of all, Brian McGovern is a Blackbelt so I doubt he started whatever happened.

Now Officer Kevin Cieslak, a two-year member of the department, How do you explain driving 89-miles-per hour in a 25-mile-per-hour zone after allegedly being involved in a collision with a bread truck and he left the scene of the accident. But how do you do 89 MPH after colliding with a bread truck anyway rookie???

Two weeks ago I saw a 70-something woman near Holy Rosary take a small garbage-bag and drop it onto the sewer grate. She looked some regular old Italian lady to me, but perhaps I'm saying that because I was near the church.

She was a church-going, matronly litterbug. So, it's not just the high schoolers. This town and its sewers overflow with selfishness and shortsightedness.
