Yes, seriously, NEVER. And I haven't received one for this election either.

Actually, it's very serious - speaks to the inability of City and County Government (or is it unwillingness...?) to oversee a fair and unbiased electoral process. One day, in my wildest dreams the Feds will investigate and the whole mess will be exposed for what it is.

Do you have the proper address on file? Do you live in an apartment building in which others might be getting your mail?

Annoyingly, I still have election ballots coming for people that haven't lived in my house for years.


My voter registration card has all the correct details for me, including my mailing address. I've NEVER received a sample ballot. The idea that somehow every election my sample ballot is delivered to someone else isn't believable - I receive ALL my other mail, and I've lived in the same small, 4-family building the entire time.

It reminds of when I first registered to vote in Jersey City, shortly after moving here. I applied about 6 weeks before the election, yet my voter registration card didn't arrive until about 3 weeks AFTER the election....

I wish I could believe it was plain, simple incompetence. Unfortunately, I can't. I really do hope the Feds take a long, hard look one day....

In my original post I was asking if he was wearing a helmet. For all I know he was. From the description of the accident wearing a helmet may have made a difference. Maybe not. But helmets - on bicycles and motorcycles riders do save lives.

Remember a year ago Monroe? That ridiculous episode on the GWB?

CNN's Jake Tapper: Christie's 'Bridgegate' got more
attention than Clinton's 'Benghazi'

By DYLAN BYERS |
1/22/14 9:59 PM EST
CNN's Jake Tapper said Wednesday that Chris Christie's "Bridgegate" scandal has received more media coverage
than Hillary Clinton's handling of the Benghazi attack, though he said there were "complicated reasons" for that.
"Obviously, Christie is getting a lot more attention when it comes to Bridgegate than Hillary got when it came to
Benghazi. I think that there are complicated reasons for it," Tapper, the host of CNN's "The Lead," told radio host Hugh
Hewitt.
"I don?t know that Benghazi got less coverage in aggregate than Bridgegate got," he said, attributing the disparity to the
fact that Benghazi became more "a White House story than it was a State Department story."
"The White House took control of it," he said. "Hillary Clinton didn?t go out on the Sunday shows, Susan Rice did,
obviously."
Both Clinton and Christie are seen as the presumptive front?runners for their respective parties in the 2016 presidential
contest, and many anticipate that each candidate's campaign will be plagued by questions about their respective
"scandals."
To date, Christie's "Bridgegate" scandal has dominated the headlines in the New York and Washington press, whereas
Clinton's ties to the Benghazi attack have been kept alive by a conservative campaign aimed at discrediting her
presidential ambitions.

A recent New York Times investigation (http://www.nytimes.com/projects/2013/benghazi/#/?chapt=0) into the attack found
that the attack may indeed have been a response to an American?made video, despite claims by conservative
lawmakers that it had been planned by Al Qaeda.
"In a rational world, that would settle the dispute over Benghazi ..." the Times editorial board wrote
(http://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/31/opi ... facts?about?benghazi.html) in response to the article. "But Republicans
long ago abandoned common sense and good judgment in pursuit of conspiracy?mongering and an obsessive effort to
discredit President Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who may run for president in 2016."

Chris Christie Political Insider: Victim of 'Ruthless Ambition'
Home away from home

http://www.nj.com/opinion/index.ssf/2 ... _author.html#incart_river


Political Insider: Victim of 'Ruthless Ambition' turns author
Agustin C. Torres/The Jersey Journal By Agustin C. Torres/The Jersey Journal
Follow on Twitter
on April 05, 2014 at 5:05 AM, updated April 05, 2014 at 5:08 AM

There?s a new publication about one man?s political life ?way back when? slated for release on Monday ? and surprise, surprise; it?s quite topical.

I?m sure you have space on your book shelf right next to Hudson County connected tomes like Tommy Smith?s ?The Powerticians?; Dayton David McKean?s ?The Boss,? a 1940s spellbinder; Holly Metz?s highly researched ?Killing the Poormaster,? featuring a Hoboken you may not recognize but with very familiar names; ?Five-Finger Discount,? Helen Stapinski?s eye-opening family tale of life in Jersey City; and Freeholder Bill O?Dea?s supposedly fictional and satirical novel, ?The Legacy of Haguesville.?

And now there?s ?Ruthless Ambition: The Rise and Fall of Chris Christie,? by former Assemblyman Louis Manzo of Jersey City, who was one of a large number of political figures (mostly from Hudson County) indicted on corruption charges as a result of the FBI sting Operation Bid Rig. In Manzo?s case, the charges were dropped by a federal judge who did his best to ignore filed complaints about prosecutorial misconduct but left unsaid messages to the prosecution by whittling away their case.

Whenever we'd call U.S. Attorney's spokesman Michael Drewniak about Manzo's accusations, the response was always that it was ridiculous and to just "consider the source."

You would think that this is all about the sting operation, but while it does chronicle some of Manzo?s experiences from the day FBI agents handcuffed him in the summer of 2009, it?s about much more than that. ?Ruthless Ambition? is a deep look into the political life and machinations of a governor and former U.S. attorney who had been in the national consciousness as a favorite potential candidate in 2016 to lead this nation. The author makes you believe Christie has more in common with Macbeth than Lincoln or Reagan.

?Ruthless Ambition? begins with the George Washington bridge scandal that appears to have scuttled Christie?s ambitions.

The lion?s share of the book follows Governor Christie?s career when the 30-year-old lawyer begins his political journey in Morris County with his friend, confidant and fellow legal eagle Bill Palatucci. As governor, Christie gets national attention when Nancy Reagan selects him as a speaker at the Reagan Library in 2011. Every step of the way there are some wise guy remarks from Manzo that many in Jersey City politics have come to expect.

For instance, he discusses a confrontation Christie has with a critic while the governor was eating ice cream on the boardwalk on the Jersey shore. Manzo gives a blow-by-blow of the infamous incident that was seen via video on the Internet by noting that not one drop of the ice cream hit the boardwalk and Christie?s comments were often punctuated with ?lick, lick.?

Manzo practically psychoanalyzes Christie when he writes about how easily the Big Boy (Karl Rove's nickname) manipulates those town hall meetings; Christie?s confrontation with reporters and critics (remember the governor?s description of one person as ?numbnuts?); the burning of such ?allies? as Commissioner of Education Bret Schundler, Mitt Romney, and Senate Minority Leader Tom Kean; a re-election that had no coattails for Republican candidates; and that bromance between Christie and Obama, apre's Sandy. What?s new is the former state legislator?s interpretation of the motivation behind all those incidents. It's almost as if whenever Christie says something, Manzo is telling the reader, "consider the source."

The one quibble some may have about the book is the publisher, TrineDay Publishing ? a niche firm that has a number of conspiracy and whistleblower authors. Part of the thinking is that by leaving the New York publishing houses, it avoids the roomful of lawyers who might water down the prose. Manzo feels secure that the book?s facts are well-documented, and he provides a large bibliography and notes from several years of research for the timely book. It is a selling point used by the publisher in its promotions.

Having lost his home, business and bank account while defending himself in court, Manzo had difficulty finding work. all any employer had to do is Google his name and up came Operation Bid Rig III, but not the conclusion. He believes he may have found a new career as a writer. He has already finished a draft of a fictional novel based on an Irish Catholic parish in Jersey City ? set way back when. Yeah, like politics, it's probably a comedy.

Re: Fire at Dixon Mills Apartments

New construction in Jersey City is rarely concrete. It's steel I beams with "fire retardant" material between between floors (and walls). In NYC (and even Hoboken) the code is much more stringent. Concrete between floors. Look at the newest Silverman Building in the former parking lot of Park Hamilton Condos. No poured concrete used there. This type of construction is much less expensive and also has poor sound insulation properties compared to concrete.

In the newer, Fireproof buildings (ie buildings with sprinklers and fireproof doors / concrete walls) it is best for residents to stay in their apartments, especially if the fire is nearby or on the same floor. I know that sounds crazy, but the danger is more from smoke inhalation that the fire itself (unless the fire is in your apartment, in which case you should get the hell out asap).

Earlier in the year, someone died in a NYC high rise for just this reason - http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/h ... r-strip-article-1.1567795 - From the article: "?In fireproof residential buildings, 99.9% of the time you?re safer in your fireproof apartment,? said Esposito. ?If you do smell some smoke coming underneath your door, put some wet towels down and call the Fire Department.?


I'm not saying I would stay in my apartment if I knew there was a fire in the building, that's just how the code works.

TRENTON ? Gov. Chris Christie announced today that David Samson, whose chairmanship of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has come under fire in recent months, has resigned.

Samson, a close ally of Christie and a former attorney general of New Jersey, is reportedly under investigation by the U.S. Attorney of New Jersey in the face of accusations that his law firm, Wolff & Samson, had enriched itself by lobbying for companies with business before the Port Authority.

He told the governor of his decision in a telephone call, Christie said.

In a statement released today, Samson said: "Over the past months, I have shared with the Governor my desire to conclude my service to the PANYNJ. The timing is now right, and I am confident that the Governor will put new leadership in place to address the many challenges ahead."

Christie said that "in line with that belief, David tendered his resignation to me this afternoon effective immediately."

Chris Christie delivers statement about the internal review, accepts Samson's resignation
Gov. Chris Christie held a press conference a day after an internal report cleared him of any involvement into the GW Bridge scandal. 03/27/2014 (Source: GovChristie)
The stunning announcement came at the beginning of a Statehouse news conference, the first since a a two-hour session on Jan. 9 when Christie accepted responsibility for politically charged closing of access lanes at the George Washington Bridge and announced the dismissal of two close aides.

***************************************

Christie's inner circle continues to implode. How long until he resigns from office in disgrace? What will get him is the cover up. Doubtful he planned or ordered the lane closings, but he certainly knew about it within hours of it happening.

Mayor Steven M. Fulop, in conjunction with the Office of Emergency Management, has declared a State of Emergency for the City of Jersey City as a result of the severe winter storm impacting our municipality. Snow is expected to continue through the rest of the day and overnight. The State of Emergency dictates that only essential vehicles such as public safety vehicles and ambulances should be driven on city roads. Abandoned vehicles will be removed.

You're right, it doesn't matter so why did you post it?

Your problem is the heavy furniture that you got from your grandmother. You're limiting your options due to that burden - heavy and difficult to move. Maybe someone else in your family can use it, and pay for the moving bills? Think about unloading it and moving on with your life. Good luck.
