It wasn’t the only question on which Simon and Thies distinguished themselves. While the two Kens showed a solid commitment to street safety measures like automated enforcement and traffic-calming infrastructure, Simon and Thies consistently displayed a broader and more current grasp of transportation issues.
My take exactly.
He should be banned from owning a business in general.
[BTW – the Post still owes That Greenpoint Blog a credit for breaking the Suarez story. I’m sure they are working on it right now.]
clearly Sea is a popular Williamsburg spot.
Yes, popular for people who don’t live in Williamsburg. (Can we call it a B&T crowd if we’re already on the wrong side of the bridge?)
Honestly, I have absolutely no idea why Sea is popular. But it’s nice to see that the Examiner (“insider source for everything local”) is discovering our local restaurants. Seven years after the fact.

Not unexpectedly, Maritza Davila and Gerry Esposito were no-shows at the Churches United “debate” on Monday night (even Diana was only there a short while). A shame, as the voters in the 34th really deserve a chance to hear the candidates explain themselves.
October 1st, 2nd, and 3rd: Krautrock pioneers Faust, with Cold Cave and Aluk Todolo; a home run punk fest featuring Pissed Jeans, TV Ghost, Vee Dee, and Guinea Worms; No Wave legends Teenage Jesus and the Jerks plus a triple attack setup of NYC noisemongers Sightings, Drunkdriver, and Talk Normal.

Ms. Heather links to a photo of the aftermath of a car wreck on Provost Street. From what I hear, it was not a drag race, but rather a single car with a young inebriated driver showing off to his girlfriend. Unfortunately, the driver is dead and the girlfriend is paralyzed. If you read Polish, it’s in all of the local papers.
[In the same post, Heather has an equally horrific account of a young man’s deadly fall from a Greenpoint rooftop.]
