What happens to pedestrian access? That bridge is the only way to run, walk or bike to Staten Island.

Re: To JC Bikers Who Ride on Sidewalks...

If there is not a protected bike lane available, the cyclist has every right to use the sidewalk, however they must always yield to pedestrians and should always ride slowly.

Traffic is too aggressive in this area to safely ride on the streets. Cyclists in the streets are always inches from death. A 150 lb cyclist with a 20 lb bicycle and Styrofoam helmet does not stand a chance against a 2000 lb car. You may think you are riding safely in the street, but you are not. You are just lucky.

If a cyclist is being dangerous on the sidewalk, yell at them to slow down! Pedestrians always have the right of way.

I felt a weird burning sensation in my nose and throat last night, too. Around midnight. I thought I was getting sick or something.

Between these unknown and potentially toxic clouds, the coming gas transmission line and the already bad air, I'm beginning to second guess my choice to live here.

This is nasty.

Religion is the opium of the people...All modern religions and churches, all and of every kind of religious organizations are used for the protection of the exploitation and the stupefaction of the working class. - Marx

Marx was right. But the movement went about it in the wrong way and let power and authority take priority over human rights and dignity.

You can't force people to give up their religion, but you can educate them.

A full stop is required.

You need to look for more than just cars. There's also pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists on the road that you might not see with your rolling stop.

Count your blessings that he didn't give you a ticket for speeding and failure to indicate a lane change (pulling to the side of the road). It sounds like he let you off easy.

If there are points and you've never done traffic court before, hire a lawyer and he'll negotiate your ticket down to a lesser charge for you.

Which cop was it? What does it say on your ticket?

A few years ago, I worked on one of those homes. First thing we did was install 5/8 inch Type X drywall, fire rated foam, and cellulose insulation to create a firestop. The building was gut-renovated only a few years earlier. I was shocked that the builder didn't do that, or the building department didn't require it.

Hopefully this fire will give cocklofts the attention they deserve. People living in homes like these all over Jersey City should at least be given information about the risks and preventative measures.

Religion deserves no respect. Religion is the number one destructive force in society. Almost all our woes can be tied back to it. You shouldn't be persecuted for practicing, but when it comes to recruiting others for your loony barn, Atheists have a duty to warn against drinking the Kool-Aid.

Religion preys on the uneducated and poor. Under the guise of "helping," they destroy cultures and convert others from their traditions and heritage. It is a massive waste of time and energy that could be better spent developing quality of life, healthcare, arts and sciences.

Atheists have been pacifists for too long. We need to eliminate dogma from decision making and allow scientific progress to proceed.

There is no god. The Easter Bunny is about as real as Jesus reincarnate. The bible is a storybook meant to keep the masses in line. We can do better than this.

Following a Religion and believing in their fairy tales shows that you are mentally challenged. Scientology, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Moonieism, Mormonism; they're all the same. They are crutches for people who can't comprehend the complexity and randomness of the world and need someone to tell them that the world has meaning. Religion is a crutch for people who can't make up their own mind on right from wrong. It's a tool for megalomaniacs to control people and extract their money and soul. It's a grand, evil lie.

If you believe, you are weak of mind. If you follow, you might be dangerous. If you are a missionary, you are doing the devil's work.

Keep your crazy off our streets.

I think this is great news. The block on Marin is desolate and in need of development. This is a good compromise to keep the rest of the Embankment as open space or a park.

Congratulations to Steve Hyman, The Embankment Coalition and the City for finally taking a step forward. By working together, I'm sure you can develop something good for the city and the pocketbook.
