Nice to hear! Congratulations Althea!

?Nice to hear? of this staff change if you?re in lock-step agreement with the Jersey City Family Initiative agenda.

But for the rest of us??.. Sorry, Steve,... I?m not entirely convinced.


And what part of the Jersey City Family Initiative do you have a problem with or are you just taking a cheap shot? Please provide examples....

I've been watching this guy with some interest lately but I have to say that his appearance on Meet the Press on Sunday was strained at best. He came across as confused on many issues and he seemed to have a hard time with Russert's pointed questions.

It seemed like a shame to me (as a person with a liberal viewpoint) that he couldn't effectively get his message out. He could be the saving grace of a Republican Party that, at this moment anyway, is acting like it doesn't want to be saved.

Unfortunately the cone looks like it is covering the area where there was previously wet concrete. They might just be to stop you from stepping in it.

This morning I saw the new sign outside the armoury on Montgomery and it is in a hilariously bad position. There is a space of about 2 feet between the armoury wall and the sign on oneside whilst the other side of the sign is about 1ft from the curb. To walk around it you have to tuen sideways or step into traffic on Montgomery Street.

Great job guys.

99% of "domesticated" cats have long ago left their place in the wild, but of course even a human can live like a wild animal if it has no choice, training or facilities.

Then again I saw those types of humans last night, which is the point of my post.

I realize this will most likely go over-the-head of most people, but hey one can always hope.

FWIW, I have captured "feral" cats, cleaned them up, trained them and adopted them out without a hitch.

Only VERY occassionally will I come across a cat too damaged to help...BTW, we're talking about KITTENS here.

Then again, looking at the way people treat each other in general, I guess I should be happy these animals haven't been sold for sport...


I'm not knocking you, I like cats, I have 2 myself, I just don't see what it has to do with Ice T.

How do you know these are not feral cats? There seems to be hundreds of them in JC, even more so on the Westside where I am. It's a shame but we are talking about urban dwelling wild animals here not Timmy the Tabby.

Also, it's pretty weird connection to make between Ice T and cat abuse, unless of course that song was actually called "Cat Killer".

Along with KRS One he was instrumental in developing rap as a political medium in the 80's, a lyrical successor to the Last Poets and Gil Scott Heron who paved the way for Public Enemy.
While I do think 15,000 is excessive, as a combination of rap artist, tv and film star and as someone with a message for today's youth with enough cred to actually get them to turn off the playstation and go see him talk, then I think its money better spent than ten speakers at 1,500 a piece with nothing to say and nobody there to hear it even if they did.


I pretty much agree with this, however I would like to point out that Ice T and Public Enemy's debut albums both came out in 1987. They developed at the same time on different coasts.

15,000 seems like a lot of money though, especially for a guy who obviously doesn't need it. He should have done it for free. In saying that, kids are more likely to have listened to him than say... some corporate CEO that has nothing in common with them.

Dear Sirs,

I would like to protest the gratuitous use of the word "fudge" in this here article.

"Fudge" is a warm, sticky, and sweet substance and it is clear that Mr McCann is not attempting to be sticky and sweet.

May I suggest that in the future the word "fock" or possibly "feck" (considering McCann is an Irish name after all) be used as suitable replacement for "fudge".

Kind Regards

New Windows
#43
Just can't stay away
Just can't stay away


I want to put in some new windows but these are not straight replacement windows I am looking for - I want to replace a couple of 4ft by2ft windows with something that is more floor to ceiling and takes out a good chunk of wall.

Can anyone give me an idea of the process involved in this? It seems that most window companies only do replacements for existing windows and don't really get involved in more construction orientated jobs.

1. Is this the kind of thing that I need to hire an architect for?
2. Any recommendations on a company to do the final job.

Thanks

I doubt this is really relavent, maybe if your burglar was James Bond yes, but not Timmy the crackhead.

Firstly, how would someone know where the wireless signal was originating in an area as squashed together as Downtown JC? and then be able to break your encryption, unless of course you don't have your encryption turned on which is kinda stupid in a built up area.

If you are not encrypted, don't go posting your credit card details on that wireless LAN anytime soon. FYI

Re: Bloomberg and Boston's Mayor join Healy in Jersey City to speak against a law that limits gun in
#49

I'd imagine that Bloomberg would argue that the gun shops are turning a blind eye to state borders anyway so why shouldn't he. Here is an interesting article on the Iron Pipeline......

---------------------------------


The Accomplices: Sundance George and Butch Reid and the Virginia Tech Massacre

by Greg Palast
Tuesday, April 17, 2007

He had accomplices. Don't kid yourself: 23-year-old Cho Seung-hui didn't forge his two little pistols in his smithy shop.

He had a dealer, a guns-and-bullets pusher-man who put the heat in his hand, took the kid's money and pocketed it with a grin.

"Whether you are looking for a pistol for affordable training or simply the excitement of shooting, the P22 is the pistolfor you!"

That's the ad on the Walther website for the student-reaper, a Walther .22.

Not that Walther, or its fellow murder-maker, Glock, which crafted the other Weapon of Student Mass Destruction, the Glock 7mm, kept all of the killer kid's money. The gun makers religiously tithe a portion of their grim reapings to
their friends in Washington.

This report isn't about gun control legislation or the right to bear arms or any of that sideways crap. This is about a group of co-conspirators who dropped two killing devices into the hands of someone who shouldn't have had access to a plastic spoon.

But before we bring in the suspects for questioning, let's pull back the camera ens for the bigger picture. Because what we saw at Virginia Tech was just a concentrated node of a larger, nationwide killing spree that goes on day after
day in the USA. Eighty-thousand Americans take a bullet from a hand gun in any year. Thirty-thousand die. That's one thousand shooting deaths off-camera for each victim at Virginia Tech.

Sundance Bush is right now at the school for his photo op. The President is, "saddened and angered by these senseless acts of violence." But will our senseless and violent President do anything about it? He already has: On July 29, 2005, the US Senate passed, then Bush signed, a grant of immunity from lawsuits for Walther, Glock and other gun manufacturers.

Now, corporations that make hand-guns can't be sued for knowingly selling firearms to killers. Like that? No other industry has such wide lawsuit immunity -- not teachers, not doctors, not cops -- only gun makers.

Here's how Cho got his guns. It's a story you won't hear on CNN. It begins with something known as, The Iron Pipeline. At one end of the Pipeline are states like Alabama where gun laws are loosey-goosey. Gun makers including Glock stuff the 'Bama end of the pipe with far more guns than can ever be bought legally in that state, knowing full well that the guns will be illegally shipped up the pipeline into states where gun laws are tougher. Virginia law prevents
"gun-trafficking"; in Alabama, they could care less.

In every state in America, a bar owner is liable to lawsuit if a bartender serves too many drinks and a customer dies in an auto accident. Hand a chainsaw to a child, you're in legal trouble. Until Bush signed the 2005 protect-the-gun-makers law, the same common law against negligent distribution
applied to firearms.

Bush was aiming at Stephen Fox. Steven can describe feeling pieces of his brain fly from his skull after a mugger shot him. He's permanently paralyzed. A jury charged the makers of .25-caliber hand guns with negligent distribution -- and Bush went wild.

He was especially worked up because the City of New Orleans sued the gun makers for the cost of hospitalizing cops shot by armaments pooping out the end of the
Iron Pipeline. The NAACP joined in the suit with the effrontery to demand the gun-pushers alter their marketing programs to keep their products out of the hands of maniacs and murderers.

Do the gun manufacturers know their .22's are being used for something other than hunting long-horned elk? Every year, the federal Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agency sends 800,000 requests to the gun companies to trace weapons found at crime scenes. As Fox's attorney told me, criminals are a much-valued, if unpublicized, market segment sought out and provisioned by these
manufacturers.

But they're safe, the gun-makers, even if we aren't, because of Bush's immunitylaw. But Sundance Bush didn't act alone. There was Harry 'Butch' Reid, leader of
the Senate Democrats, riding shotgun on the immunity bandwagon.

The Walther .22 comes from Austria. Hitler came from Austria, too. The Glock 7mm student-slayer comes from Germany. With the legal protection handed them by Bush
and Reid, the two Teutonic weapons profiteers can skip free of legal judgment with that line well-practiced by their countrymen: "We were only taking orders
-- for our product."

**********

This report is adapted from, "Just Put Down that Lawsuit, Pardner, and No One
Gets Hurt" in the Class War section of the new edition of Greg Palast's

Or, how many parents provided the downpayments which would be lost in a default.


I would imagine that equation applys more in places like Williamsburg than JC but you have a valid point. What I want to know though, is that if you bought at a fixed-rate mortgage, are there circumstances under which the banks are allowed to increase that "fixed" rate when times get tough?

It certainly doesn't look like the mayor is placing this event high in his priorities, for whatever reason...

I'm a bit confused here... Not being involved in any of the JC politics, is there anything that says that the mayor *has* to attend this sort of rally? I could advertise all I wanted that Mayor Healy was coming over to my house for dinner, try inviting him, and be angry that he didn't show up. Is that reasonable? It doesn't make sense to me at all... if you plan to have certain people at your event, you have to invite them and confirm their attendance well in advance of associating their name with the event, or at least I would think so. I don't understand how the assumption is that without any answer to the negative or positive, that the mayor would come.


I think the mayor had already agreed to attend (twice) before the meeting was advertised and re-advertised. it seems like the organisers of the meeting went out of their way to have accomodate the mayor only to have him bail at the last minute.

When is the next mayoral election again??
