'Tis a truth universally recognised...
in general NJ public officials have a unique contempt for the public (as opposed to other loyal members of the machine in-group) and for their actual on-paper jobs (as opposed to their roles in the party machinery), and so get really angry when a member of the public asks them to do their jobs
The difference between acquiring public data in PA vs. NJ is wild.

In PA, officials generally work with requestors and start from a place of "how can we get you this?"

In NJ, even requests for basic data often get denied. There's no wiggle room. Your request is closed. New OPRA law FTW.

Meanwhile in Red Bank NJ, the litigation concerning the Outfront Media Billboard Use Variance Application rumbles on...
The mayor+council certainly seem to love a good trial..
Any ideas how much this one has cost the community so far?

Police & media - local too, do not understand this.
80% of electric bicycles I see around Red Bank NJ, often ridden by children, are illegal electric motorcycles.
Widely reported child deaths of "e-Bike" riders were actually on illegal e-Motos, usually bought by parents!

So we signed up with Progressive Insurance (NJ US), and now we've just been told a "Snapshot" device is on its way to us.
Apparently it connects to the car's management system and monitors driving styles, etc...
Is this for our, or Progressive's benefit?

I missed last evening's Red Bank NJ, Shrewsbury Ave. Rehabilitation Plan for Housing and Waterfront Access.
Ironic it took place at the Senior Center...
Hard to find any report, but thx to #TapIntoRedBank for making the presentation material available.

Just been messing about with windows browsers... I've been using Edge, so tried using Chrome, but rather wanting to get away from Big Bro.
I've used Firefox for a week and found it worth pursuing, but somehow I got signed out and the key I scrupulous recorded (screenshot) and copied doesn't work

First exhibit in the Royal Signals museum: a model of a 6-bit clacks.

The one at Blandford was part of an Admiralty chain between Plymouth and Whitehall, operating in the first half of the C19th and superseded by the electric telegraph. There was also a branch to Portsmouth.
