I?ve been doing cat rescue in JC for many years. I was around when the SPCA was investigated in 2000. It seems to me that the issues that were a problem then are the same problems they are being accused of now. With the exception of bludgeoning pets with garden tools as far as we know anyway. I think that a full investigation needs to take place and we need to know why this is allowed to continue to happen. The first investigation should be of Animal control officer Minister Hector Carbajales president of the Hudson County SPCA. If any wrong doings are found his State license for animal control should be revoked. Also if he is committed of a crime the establishment that he is a minister should be notified. The next investigation should be of Chief SPCA investigator Carl Galliato. How can he say the place was clean one day before the Health officer and the animal control found deplorable conditions. I am an old lady who only leaves my apartment to go to the vets and the market and I hear of the abuse going on at the SPCA. How come the Health Department and animal control does not hear and investigate. You would think a place that had such a report in 2000 would be watched closer. I do not know if this is true but I heard that the Mayor of Union City US Senator Brian Stack sits on the board of the HCSPCA.

I hope the citizens of Union City and North Bergen are aware of where they are sending their pets. If any one knows of any facility that houses animals that need investigation please call the state health Department at 609-588-3121. If we don?t speak for the animals who will. My mother didn?t name me Frances for nothing. I?ve got to go feed my strays now.

New Jersey Fund Bets on Big Banks

Wall Street Journal
By IAN SALISBURY
January 15, 2008

JERSEY CITY, N.J. -- Humbled by the subprime mortgage crisis, Wall Street titans Citigroup Inc. and Merrill Lynch & Co. turned to a former Citi chief executive, a Saudi Prince ... and the school teachers of New Jersey.

Among the slate of far-flung investors who will pitch in more than $19 billion to the two struggling financial firms is the New Jersey Division of Investment, which oversees about $80 billion in pension assets for 700,000 current and former state employees, including police, firefighters and teachers.

New Jersey's investments -- $400 million in Citigroup and $300 million in Merrill Lynch -- are small compared with the $5 billion kicked in by the Kuwait Investment Authority.

The New Jersey fund may seem unglamorous next to the exotic cast of investors in the Wall Street firms, including former Citigroup Chief Sandy Weill and Saudi Arabian Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal. But the fund's lack of glamour may have helped it secure a slice of the investment.

Big petrodollar-driven deals with Gulf state investors have raised some hackles in Washington. Including the home state of Bruce Springsteen and Frank Sinatra in the banks' financing could help moderate some concerns about foreign investors, and even give the transaction a red-white-and-blue tint, says one person close to the deal.

At the same time, buying alongside deep-pocketed partners helped New Jersey get attractive terms.

"Whatever pricing power is, these people have it," says the source, referring to the overseas investors.

Susan Burrows Farber, chief administrative officer of the Division of Investment, agreed that New Jersey got attractive terms.

While she didn't rule out the notion of politics giving the state a helping hand, she says the deal came about because the two firms made known their need for capital at a time when New Jersey was reevaluating what it considered relatively slight investments in financial services companies.

"We sought these deals," she said. "It was a natural fit."

Like other state pension systems, New Jersey has sought to move investments beyond traditional fare like publicly traded stocks and bonds in an effort to diversify its holdings and boost returns.

The investments in Citigroup and Merrill Lynch are akin to stock investments, but they are more complicated because they represent stakes sold in specially negotiated "private placements" available only to a small number of qualified investors.

While the New Jersey Division of Investment says the financial service sector now offers an appealing long-term bet, it has run into trouble with risky investments in the past, particularly high-flying Internet stocks at the start of the decade. At one point between 2000 and 2002, the fund lost a third of its value and was criticized for "poor management" by then-Governor James E. McGreevey.

Among the criticisms: over-reliance for management on civil servants rather than Wall Street money managers, and an over-emphasis on equities.

In September 2002, hedge fund manager and prominent Democratic fund raiser Orin Kramer took over leadership of the council that oversees the fund, promising to hire outside money managers and invest in a broader range of assets.

The public pension fund posted a return in calendar 2007 of 9.2%.

Against the trend, U.S. births way up


1-15-08

By MIKE STOBBE, AP Medical Writer





Bucking the trend in many other wealthy industrialized nations, the United States seems to be experiencing a baby boomlet, reporting the largest number of children born in 45 years.

The nearly 4.3 million births in 2006 were mostly due to a bigger population, especially a growing number of Hispanics. That group accounted for nearly one-quarter of all U.S. births. But non-Hispanic white women and other racial and ethnic groups were having more babies, too.

An Associated Press review of birth numbers dating to 1909 found the total number of U.S. births was the highest since 1961, near the end of the baby boom. An examination of global data also shows that the United States has a higher fertility rate than every country in continental Europe, as well as Australia, Canada and Japan. Fertility levels in those countries have been lower than the U.S. rate for several years, although some are on the rise, most notably in France.

Experts believe there is a mix of reasons: a decline in contraceptive use, a drop in access to abortion, poor education and poverty.

There are cultural reasons as well. Hispanics as a group have higher fertility rates ? about 40 percent higher than the U.S. overall. And experts say Americans, especially those in middle America, view children more favorably than people in many other Westernized countries.

"Americans like children. We are the only people who respond to prosperity by saying, `Let's have another kid,'" said Nan Marie Astone, associate professor of population, family and reproductive health at Johns Hopkins University.

Demographers say it is too soon to know if the sudden increase in births is the start of a trend.

"We have to wait and see. For now, I would call it a noticeable blip," said Brady Hamilton, a statistician with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Demographers often use the word boomlet for a small and brief baby boom.

To many economists and policymakers, the increase in births is good news. The U.S. fertility rate ? the number of children a woman is expected to have in her lifetime ? reached 2.1. That's the "magic number" required for a population to replace itself.

Countries with much lower rates ? such as Japan and Italy, both with a rate of 1.3 ? face future labor shortages and eroding tax bases as they fail to reproduce enough to take care of their aging elders.

But the higher fertility rate isn't all good. Last month, the CDC reported that America's teen birth rate rose for the first time in 15 years.

The same report also showed births becoming more common in nearly every age and racial or ethnic group. Birth rates increased for women in their 20s, 30s and early 40s, not just teens. They rose for whites, blacks, Hispanics, American Indians and Alaska Natives. The rate for Asian women stayed about the same.

Total births jumped 3 percent in 2006, the largest single-year increase since 1989, according to the CDC's preliminary data.

Clearly, U.S. birth rates are not what they were in the 1950s and early 1960s, when they were nearly twice as high and large families were much more common. The recent birth numbers are more a result of many women having a couple of kids each, rather than a smaller number of mothers, each bearing several children, Astone said.

Demographers say there has been at least one boomlet before, around 1990, when annual U.S. births broke 4.1 million for two straight years before dropping to about 3.9 million in the mid-1990s. Adolescent childbearing was up at the time, but so were births among other groups, and experts aren't sure what explained that bump.

The 2006 fertility rate of 2.1 children is the highest level since 1971. To be sure, the fertility rate among Hispanics ? 3 children per woman ? has been a major contributor. That's the highest rate for any group. In 2006, for the first time, Hispanics accounted for more than 1 million births.

The high rate probably reflects cultural attitudes toward childbirth developed in other countries, experts said. Fertility rates average 2.7 in Central America and 2.4 in South America.

Fertility rates often rise among immigrants who leave their homelands for a better life. For example, the rate among Mexican-born women in the U.S. is 3.2, but the overall rate for Mexico is just 2.4, according to the Pew Hispanic Center, a Washington-based research organization.

"They're more optimistic about their future here," said Jeff Passel, a Pew Center demographer.

Some complain that many illegal immigrants come here purposely to have children.

"The child is an automatic American citizen, thus entitled to all benefits of American citizens. This gives a certain financial incentive for people coming from other countries illegally to have children here," said John Vinson, president of the Virginia-based American Immigration Control Foundation.

Fertility rates were also relatively high for other racial and ethnic groups. The rate rose to 2.1 for blacks and nearly 1.9 for non-Hispanic whites in 2006, according to the CDC.

Fertility levels tend to decline as women become better educated and gain career opportunities, and as they postpone childbirth until they are older. Experts say those factors, along with the legalization of abortion and the expansion of contraception options, explain why the U.S. fertility rate dropped to its lowest point ? about 1.7 ? in 1976.

But while fertility declines persisted in many other developed nations, the United States saw the reverse: The fertility rate climbed to 2 in 1989 and has hovered around that mark since then, according to federal birth data.

Kohler and others say the difference has more to do with culture than race. For example, white American women have more children than white European ? even though many nations in Europe have more family-friendly government policies on parental leave and child care.

But such policies are just one factor in creating a society that produces lots of babies, said Duke University's S. Philip Morgan, a leading fertility researcher.

Other factors include recent declines in contraceptive use here; limited access to abortion in some states; and a 24/7 economy that provides opportunities for mothers to return to work, he said.

Also, it is more common for American women to have babies out of wedlock and more common for couples here to go forward with unwanted pregnancies. And, compared with nations like Italy and Japan, it's more common for American husbands to help out with chores and child care.

There are regional variations in the United States. New England's fertility rates are more like Northern Europe's. American women in the Midwest, South and certain mountain states tend to have more children.

The influence of certain religions in those latter regions is an important factor, said Ron Lesthaeghe, a Belgian demographer who is a visiting professor at the University of Michigan. "Evangelical Protestantism and Mormons," he said.

Because I like consistancy in government. Because I think it's important that elected officials do the right thing. Because I think if a government says they're going to do something, they should do so.

And because not everything needs to be a block of antiseptic towers and ESPN Fun Zones.

Sharpe James land fraud trial to start next month, judge says
by Jeff Whelan/The Star-Ledger
Tuesday January 15, 2008, 2:10 PM

Former Newark Mayor Sharpe James will go on trial on land fraud charges next month, prosecutors said today, leaving charges that he misused city credit cards for a later trial.

U.S. District Judge William Martini split the corruption case against James and his co-defendant, Tamika Riley, last week, saying he believed the land case against the both of them should go first.

He asked prosecutors for their preference and they agreed with him during a hearing in federal court in Newark today. Riley will also face related tax fraud charges in next month's trial. She was not charged in the credit card case, which alleged James billed the city for personal meals, trips and lavish vacations with female companions.

Martini also had ordered a third trial for Riley alone on charges that she lied about her income to qualify for public housing assistance in Jersey City. But at the urging of prosecutors, Martini today reversed that decision, saying those charges should be included in the land fraud trial next month.

The judge did so after Assistant U.S. Attorney Judith Germano argued that to do otherwise would leave a "conceptual hole" in the government's case.

Riley and James were indicted last year on charges that James, also a former state senator, illegally arranged for Riley to buy city land at a steep discount and resell it for nearly $700,000 in profits. Authorities described Riley, a publicist and entrepreneur, as a "companion" of James.

Only financially qualified developers were supposed to participate in the city program in which the land deals were made, according to prosecutors. The indictment cited the fact that Riley was on public assistance at the time of the land deals as evidence that her "personal financial status was uncertain."

Germano said today the housing fraud charges against Riley were integral to the case. Martini said he was "annoyed" the government hadn't made that argument during previous hearings on the matter, but agreed and reversed his earlier decision.

"If you need public assistance it's hard to reasonably conclude you could be a qualified developer in the next town over," Martini said.

Germano told the judge she expected the land fraud trial to last up to three months and include testimony from up to 50 witnesses. It is scheduled to begin Feb. 26.

It's outrageous that these people got permits to build such energy wasteful buildings. I thought we were trying to reduce our depedence on foreign oil.

Why should something be done?

Those floor to ceiling windows at 50 Columbus sound like a nice feature, but if people renting there had given the matter more thought, of course it's going to be a heating and cooling nightmare.

wow. and there you have it, folks.

Councilman-

What are you doing to stop Toll Brothers from turning the PAD into Newport South?

Thanks.

I agree that those cobblestone streets are unique, but the surrounding structures? You can't be referring to the abandoned warehouses or commercial lease properties.

Nice to hear! Congratulations Althea!

I lived next to Lincoln Park about 10 yrs ago, but that was on the corner of Duncan Ave & Mallory (the park splits Mallory, for those who may not know). It was a dump. To be honest, I'm happy about all the positive changes I've seen in JC since then, but newcomers should always take into consideration that this is a CITY. My job dictates that I cannot lawfully discuss neighborhood crime statistics, etc, but think of it this way: your car could always get broken into in Manhattan as well. And in Manahattan, they only get MILLION DOLLAR VIEWS OF JERSEY CITY!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAAAA........excuse me.

I would hate to see the loss of the cobblestone streets, they're unique just like the structures around them.

The SPCA had kicked out all its volunteers a while back, which signalled a return to the scandolous days of the early nineties. I was recently heartened by posts from a volunteer soliciting both other volunteers and supplies recently. Liberty Humane is a good shelter but Hudson County needs more. I was hoping the return of volunteers signaled that animals would no longer die by slow and excruciating degrees at the SPCA.

I was at LHS after an adoption event. If I were the SPCA employee who had posted on this site, I would have let JClisters go on believing that the tan wire-haired terrier mix was an SPCA dog, as it looks relatively healthy. That is more than I could say for the two SPCA dogs I saw Sunday afternoon - the white pit bull whose photograph appears on this thread and Stormy, the black mix mentioned. When I saw the horrible shape her eye was in and noted her cage card said "confiscated"; I assumed she was taken from a hoarder or a negligent pet owner. I was appalled to learn that Stormy was confiscated from the SPCA.

Not having a vet on the premises does not justify such neglect. The dog could have been taken to a clinic. Many will offer significant discounts to shelters and rescues.

I had been hearing for some time that rescue groups were pulling dogs half-dead from starvation frm the SPCA; despite generous donations of food from the Hoboken Dog Association and large pet food chains. I also heard that outdoor dog runs were being hosed down while the dogs were in them during cold days and that the wet dogs sat in their wet outdoor kennels while temperatures were in the thirties.

The SPCA doesn't euthanize their animals. They kill them slowly.........On their site, they whine they receive no money from the state, yet they charge $250 adoption fees for unspayed or unneutered dogs? Liberty charges $95 for male dogs and $115 for females. All dogs are either neutered or spayed prior to adoption.

Because they are housed in runs, dogs are very visible. If this is how they were treated, I shdduer to think what life is like for the cats at the SPCA.

I recommended to these folks that they either write a letter to the local media or have me ghost one for them. However, the anonymous tip has done the trick.

I have criticized Joe Frank in the past, so I was pleasantly gratified at the role he played in exposing the SPCA. Thanks to his persistence, the SPCA will have to clean up their act - in more ways than one.

They - and those who stand by them - must realize that Hudson County residents will no longer tolerate a banana republic. (Those who grew up here know what I am talking about.)

Tricky. I'd just pick up the phone and ask city hall. I doubt the website would have any info on barnyard animals in JC. My ex-girlfriend's neighbors called the town of Holmdel on her because she had a pet goat. Turns out it was ok to have one. So, she went and rented additional barnyard animals every so often to stroll around her yard (just to piss off her neighbors). I'd feel bad if somebody had to give up their pet rooster, but seriously......does cuckadoodle reeeeeally early in the morning?

unfortunately it's not about curses. The world is full of horrible stories. So the area dosen't justify a curse. It only justifies that area now has a heavy concentration of AZZHOLES who feel that they can hurt the weak.

I sent the below letter out this morning to my e-mail list and I am just posting here to keep those that are not on that list informed.

Best regards,
Steve

Dear Friends,

Hope you all have been doing well and are off to a positive start in 2008. This year we will continue to work together towards improving Ward E and setting a standard of good governance and responsibility throughout the entire city.

OUR GOALS BECOME REALITY

I am happy to say that we are on the home stretch with regards to the renovation of Hamilton Park, for which we have secured money. We will also have the master plan for improvement of sewer flooding next month.

Thanks to the hundreds of dedicated volunteers and community activists, we are on our way to passing two of the most important changes in the history of our great city. This November the voters of Jersey City will enact a strict pay to play referendum and the elimination of dual salaries and pensions for the city council. Both of these measures will produce benefits for taxpayers and a fair and transparent government.

If you haven't done so already, please visit www.betterjc.org to learn more about these important ballot initiatives.

OUR SCHOOLS - OUR TAXES!

I have put forward two resolutions to prepare for the impact of the school system returning to city control. It is time to look at this City's government more holistically and not as a Board of Education segregated from city government. Tell the administration and council you want their support on these resolutions!

The first resolution, on behalf of the city council, directly relates to the tax abatement policy. Mayor Healy is an advocate for tax abatements; however the current funding gives nothing at all to the school system. Currently, one third of conventional taxes go to fund the schools, whereas on a tax abated property none of the taxes go towards funding our schools. With Trenton cutting our state funding, it will put an unfair burden of school taxes on conventional property owners. Next week at the council meeting we will be requesting that our state representatives adopt a formula that is FAIR TO ALL taxpayers in Jersey City.

The second resolution requests an amendment to the Mayor's executive order, which created his Tax Abatement Committee. This executive order does not allow representation for the Jersey City School System. The granting of tax abatements eliminates any funding for schools. This forces the school system to raise its portion of the taxes.

The resolution is requesting Mayor Healy to amend the committee in order to allow fair representation for OUR SCHOOLS. In Jersey City, not only doesn't the school system have any formal rights regarding abatements given, but no school board representatives serve on the committee in an oversight role, this resolution will request that this be changed.


Finally, I would like to make you aware that there has been a change of staff in my office. Althea Bernheim has joined our council office as my aide. Althea can be reached at abernheim@jcnj.org or (201) 547-5315.

Again, I will keep you informed of our progress on these and other measures to make our city a superior place to live and work. As always, please feel free to contact me at any time if you have any questions of concerns or if you would like to learn how you can be a part of making Jersey City better.

Thanks and best wishes for a great New Year!

Councilman Ward "E" Jersey City

Man oh man do I hope that these stories are exaggerated. I don't think that there is a hell hot enough----- or large enough------- to hold anyone who participates in animal cruelty. SHAME ON YOU!!!!!!!!!!

Are roosters allowed in Jersey City? I can't find anything on the municpal oridinance website saying anything against them. A few doors down from where I live someone has a rooster that is constantly roosting or crowing or whatever you call it. It makes noise all morning. It is annoying like car alarms that sound for 5 minutes.

A person asks an opinion of an area in which to live, I respond with an honest answer because I did in fact live there for about five years. It really is that simple. The fact that some may have had positive experiences living there should impact on decisions to live there.

There was no Lincoln Park bashing, I'm happy for those who only have raccoons breaking in, that's that. Lighten up folks.

Putting the transformers INSIDE the Powerhouse building? I'd rather see them avoid that AND the triangle. It seems as though there is going to be a tug-of-war battle over the PAD Redevelopment plan for quite some time. I picked up a copy of the plan from 30 Montgomery, but I know there are bound to be more adjustments as Toll Brothers continues to leverage changes. Anybody have an opinion on what the fate of those cobblestone streets should be?
