Very violent chronic shoplifter at A&P supermarket rode up on a silver/gray specialized bike with letters rubbing off. Had a black seat with 2 yellow/mustard gel packs in the seat. He left it there when he got taken away by the police.

Someone told me there is a guy in a van that stops and buys them near St Lucy's shelter for 10-20 bucks with no questions asked. I'm kind of trying to confirm it. I've lost two in the last year and I'm pretty sure at least one was to a specific person that hangs in this area.

This project should never have been handled as just another development. It is the graveyard of thousands of innocent American citizens who were just trying to do their jobs that day. Something spectacular should have been built for the entire world to see. An iconic structure that would be the pride of our entire nation should be there now. In regards to this "project" our country looks impotent {instead of important} to the rest of the world.

Walked through the park this am at apx 7:30am ready to clean up around the court for a few minutes. It was actually pretty clean so someone had done some cleaning. Only took me about 10 minutes. Going to be an ongoing process.

Exactly....go for win-win situations. Not looking to gouge vendors but maybe they could buy trash bags or even just police their area and help keep it clean. The parking shouldn't be much of a problem unless something like 6 trucks all of a sudden show up which I suppose could happen. If I see Flava again I will say something to her. Just think the ambience of the park is diminished with vendors IN the park. A convenient hot dog or something is nice nearby thou.

The park renovations look great. Lots of folks enjoying it today as I walked through on my way home. The clean up committee is a great idea and perhaps I could participate depending on scheduling.
My old community used to "close the court down for cleaning" twice a day. When trash was picked up the court reopened. Kids used to run around like crazy for about 5 minutes so they could get back to playing ball. Just an idea. Can we keep vendors out of the actual park? Today there were nine vendors that I saw in just a five minute walk. Most like Made with Love were outside which seems like a good compromise to me as long as the sidewalk around them is clean and clear. The Catch the Flava lady however was in the park near the playground ringing her damn bell incesantly which seemed over the top to me. Is everyone ok with the food trucks taking up the valuable parking spaces around the park? Not a judgement by me, just asking the question. Also should vendors that are making a profit at/near the park contribute toward clean up???

Outside my window. No fire dept or ambulance in view. Some closed box that has been out there for awhile. Wonder if this is a drill. No one in immediate area was evacuated. People walking over and around police tape, which is coming down right now

I'm curious.....why Jeep Liberties? Who was the salesperson/dealer? Were they somebodies relative or a campaign donor? Thirty five vehicles at 25 thou a vehicle is 875,000 bucks. Did they get a deal or pay full price? At that volume of purchase an incredible deal should have been obtained. Maybe a nice follow up story for some reporter.

There are many dealership tricks. Here are a few.
They will try to keep you there as long as possible. It has been proven that an average buyer's resistance weakens as they sit. Especially at the end of the transaction when they sometimes try to add on all the misc. charges. Many people want to just be done with it at that point. Remember these folks are pros so don't give them even more of an advantage by playing by their rules. Set a time limit upon arrival. Tell them and stick to it. Remind them while there that you will be leaving at this very specific time. They will try to get the keys to your trade in so they can supposedly check it out. Handing over the keys prevents you from walking out. Never prematurely give over the keys to your car during negotiations. They will usually try to get you to sign something even if it is meaningless, such as a silly lowball offer to bring to their "boss". This is a psych trick. They are trying to get you conditioned to keep saying yes as often as possible. They want you to believe that the salesperson is really trying hard to work for you. That he is your friend. It is business and although friendly he is not your friend. He works and is accountable to his boss not you. Negotiate all aspects of the deal. Many dealers will lose money on auto purchase price or trade just to hammer you on financing.

Welcome to the neighborhood. There are actually a lot of old timers around during the day that keep an eye on everything. Really not such a bad neighborhood. You will be close to Hamilton Park which is nice. Kids on skateboards can be a little noisy on 8th & Brunswick sometimes but they are usually just having fun. Hope you like church bell recordings from Holy Rosary at 9am, 3pm, 6pm & 7pm. I personally love them and find them charming. Music Box bar at 7th & Monmouth got cited recently by ABC. They got shut down for 6 out of 7 Monday nights for first reported offense of serving very late at night. Also required to have a basic dress code. Also supposed to help controll outside noise as much as possible. Most problems seem to happen in the smoking "area" just outside the front door. A lot of the patrons at this bar have the habit of yelling as ordinary converstion. Don't think many from the neighborhood go in this bar. Most of the locals here go in White Star Bar at Pavonia and Brunswick.

Police and Firefighters that risk their life for our safety deserve a good wage. Teachers that educate the future of our society also deserve a good wage. HOWEVER right now given the cities' dire financial situation and the hurting economy nobody should be getting a pay raise IMHO. All the wasteful expenditures absolutely have to go! Many folks have had to get creative and learn to get by with diminished financial resources. ( I work hard and deserve a new automobile but that is not happening anytime soon because I can't afford it right now.) The city has to ethically learn how to do the same thing. It really is that simple.

Just got back. Had a burger and fries for $10. Good Angus burger with Swiss Cheese, thin sliced roma tomatoes and some lettuce. Fries were thick cut with a little skin on them and were slightly presalted. Tiny portion of cold foccacia bread and oil came out late. Waiter was attentive but very inexperienced and many others seemed that way. All to be expected for an opening. I'll certainly try them again and wish them luck. No refills on the soda. Only real negative in the experience. Was charged $2 each time for a small coke. $10 for burger, $4 for soda, $1 tax and $5 tip = $20 for whole thing. Looking forward to trying the paella on my next trip.

Often the bank will waive the mortgage ins. on a REO (a property they actually owned) if they do the financing because that property converts directly to them on a default. They will always try to include it in the deal. Sometimes a long standing account or something like a CD account/Investment/IRA account will be enough to have it negotiated out.
