Anyone interested in caravaning down - I'll be leaving around 7:30am Sunday morning. Google it if you want to know more. I went to the one in NY a couple weeks ago - its great for gearheads of all types and interests.

Roughly 10 degrees is the tipping point for figs but a lot has to do with where they are planted. I will echo what others have said - it's too early to tell, but I think its worth noting that the microclimate in the area lends to plants safely weathering the winter.
If the fig is planted in the ground and in a protected yard (inside a block) there is a good chance it survived. I have a number of anuals that perpetually survive - and every spring I am still surprised. Especially over the last two winters. If the fig was planted at the front of a building I would say its more a gamble... but there is a fig that grows at the intersection of 8th & Erie (NW corner) that has been around for a few seasons and fruits every year. More info than you needed, but good luck!

I think the place is a little too Broboken for JC... would probably do better closer to haborside.

The suggestion that gay is the result of an environmental stimulus, like abuse, is insulting. You should sit these conversations out... and I am sure the Catholic network is the place to go for unbiased projection and opinion.
The question that isnt answered is, 'Why is he unhappy being a gay man?' I'd gamble it comes from people like yourself that think gays are better of being chaste than in loving relationships. How much longer before you leave JC? Quote:

The ShopRite, BY FAR, has the best selection... including higher end brands. Last holiday season I did a huge dinner that included produce, meats, and seasoning that I figured I would have to find in the city - all of it came form ShopRite (and it was all excellent quality).
The only thing that I could not find was cipollini onions. Quote:

We went Saturday and sat at the bar in the back; enjoyed a couple cheeses and a three of the meats. It was delicious.
We also really liked the Jersey City Tea and the BBQ Negroni cocktails

Reduction in Car Insurance Rates due to Zip Code

---|---|---|---|---|

Just had a very interesting discussion with Progressive. My insurance rate went down by over a third at this renewal... I needed to chat with a rep about another issue, but inquired why I had such a significant drop and she said the main reason was
the associated liability of my zip code has improved (07302). I am interested to know if anyone else has seen a similar? We all know the 'dynamics' of JC have changed (esp downtown)... and this seems to be quantitative proof.

I have seen more cops writing tickets... and felt it likely had to do with the elimination of the parking authority... seems like others agree.
The tickets I now see are for blatant infractions; parking in front of fire hydrants, parking too close to intersections, etc. All things that deserve tickets.

I dont buy this at all
The owner of the home/structure is responsible for maintaining the side walk in front of their home. Keeping it free of debris and snow. Not allowing owners to use the space as they see fit seems a bit unfair - also consider that they likely pay more taxes than the majority. Trouble finding a parking space in JC? Well - maybe you should be using the PATH, ferries, light rail, and buses to access JC. There are also plenty of garages where you keep your car and use said public transit to access what you need. Street parking is NOT a public good. When we put up pay meters it is a public good. I am happy people have the privilege of owning a car, but NO ones owes anyone a space to park it in. Also keep in mind that street parking also carries danger - it limits visibility around turns, allows for children, adults, and animal to go unseen, and contributes to street congestion. Sorry - I say tough stuff...

It's simple - people shouldnt be using Erie as a pass through street for their commute. I am all for making it painful to drive through Hamilton Park and any other neighborhood in JC. Even with the stop signs... I am regularly rushed by cars at the stops and would gamble I'm not the only one.
Maybe the execution blew, but it is at the very least the most proactive thing the city has done to manage traffic and slow it down. I honestly figured nothing would happen until a person bounced off the hood of someones car and died. When are these going up on Manilla?? Quote:

Funny how some people act - I usually take it as an indication of not having control over anything else in their lives; one of the many reasons I keep local politics an arms length away

The more I read this, the more fantastic I think they are.
It will significantly slow down traffic through the neighborhoods and keep the passers through out. I managed to figure them out - so have plenty of other people... congrats - you have to pay attention to the road.

I would agree that they need to be painted. With the right level of speed I am sure you can catch air on them lol.... I would be worried about folks loosing control in certain situations as well.

I will start by saying I am pro speed humps - would love to see a few down the entire stretch of Manilla.
The new one they put in (and I would guess there is a second planned by the school) is HUGE... I questioned if my car might bottom out on the apex as it passed between the wheels. It made me bring the car to a near stop to go over it... fine by me. I would love to know what process led to their creation. Was it the school? the HP community association?

It was a trolling article... the emphasis on no-bid contract, another $15k, politically aligned law firm - how much more crap can they drop into an article that's barely 500 words?
And... I would gamble that anything under a given threshold in JC is allowed to be no-bid. Quote:
