[AsburyPark] Extra police activity??
Anyone know why there is so much police activity at the moment? I know there's been some shootings lately but it feels like there are cops walking everywhere, last night at football practice (bangs ave on the west side of tracks) there were 10 or 12 cops waking around and today and yesterday on the east side we have walking and driving up and down 7th. I think something is going on or about to go on. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

Re: [AsburyPark] How others see Asbury Park....
The bishops bleed blue and black, it's team spirit i guess. We can't take away from the fact that these kids get a crappy education and crappy school management, the one thing they do well is football.You could have taken that money and thrown it into the school but it would have just been misappropriated anyway and none of the kids would have benefited. At least this way the handful that work hard for something (even if it's sport) benefit. If they're required to go to school and keep up their grades to play maybe it will encourage others.

Re: [AsburyPark] AP Pop Warner / Donations
Hi It's so funny - i was just thinking this morning when the email came through. Hope you guys had a great vacation, can't believe the summer is now over and reality sets in. Asbury Park Pop Warner Not sure if you know colleseum gym (Carmelo) but he donated too which was really nice. We're 2 games into the season and i cannot tell you a great job the coaches do, this is first year of tiny mites (5,6,7 age group) and the coaches are great and the kids love it, there's 30+ kids enrolled. I can't believe that most of these guys do this and just donate their time without kids on the team for the love of the game and community spirit. Anyway, thanks for the remind and the donation, it's really appreciated.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Crappy experience at Rafferty's
I will say about McCloones in AP - we went on memorial day at about 8pm for dinner and service was so slow, i mean ridiculous, we had 2 kids with and we waited for 90 minutes for our entrees, and when . However. the server and manager could not have been nicer, they came to us and apologized profusely and they came to us before we complained, they comped us a round of drinks, they gave us a free membership card (which you normally have to pay for) and they we all over the problem. They recognized us a regulars (which doens't happen much in AP and did the right thing) Generally the service there is pretty amateur but not as awful as some other places, the menu is ok and the staff are friendly.

The New Brunswick Raff's is very good. That was my palce when I worked in Piscataway. We had a group of people 2 weeks ago at Raff's - yes, some of the orders were screwed up and slow and the food is generally ok. that being said, we often go there later at night on a friday if my wife is heading home late - the best tomato soup (just remind them with a bowl you the gnocchi) great bartender - drink each and head home - all within my budget. As far as langosta not letting you sit for a drink when tables are empty - we had the same experience during the week at McCloones - but in Long Branch. Almost all tables empty - and we ordered two drinks and an appetizer as a warmup - then a manager came over and offered for us to sit inside as he handed us menus to order dinner... So I cancelled the appetizer sipped my drink for another hour and left. My appetizer orders and drinks usually add up more then a couple ordering just dinner -no drinks, no coffee etc. My daughter said the Mccloones in AP is now much better - but I haven't taken a shot. Nothing worse then getting a waiter/waitress pissed because you don't order dinner. I don't mind going to Wegmans's, getting a greek salad for the increased price of $6.50 driving down to the beach, parking my car eating it and going back to work. No tip, no attitude and it's consistent. Kids wanted to take me out the other night for a b-day - said screw it. I went to shop-rite got the filet on sale, stopped at weg's got myself a cake and some veggies and had my kids and their friends help prep it all - a) 100 times better b) cheaper c) more fun Hint: Carrots cost pennies, no need to cut it in half, then quarters then put 2 pieces on a plate with 2 fingerling potatoes and call it with vegetables 2 olives, 2 pieces of cheese, 2 crackers and 4 grapes ain't worth $14 plus a tip Don't microwave bread. Leftovers aren't fresh. Know what fish are in season and are really local. I'm not in florida . Local doesn't mean the local supplier, it means local water. If you can't be in your restaurant and watch the kitchen yourself or understand a complaint and know how to suck it up, then you shouldn't be in business. And for gods sake, you're not going to go broke by making a good cup of coffee. If you can't make it right, go for a keruig or nespresso.

Re: [AsburyPark] Crappy experience at Rafferty's
It's amateur service and people not caring about their locals Let's add Langosta to crappy experience. Went there Sunday, dropped the kids at the sprayground and wanted to have some drinks outside and keep an on the kids. They wouldn't let us sit down unless we were ordering food. There were 6 or 7 empty tables out there, they remained empty the whole time we sat on the bench across the way. Greeter was cluess and didn't care.

Rule #1 when there are little kids, move things along efficiently. Then there were little things like my wife's soup not coming out until 10 minutes after the salads came out, and the table being given a basket of bread with only 4 pieces for 8 people. I've eaten there before and it has been fine, but this time really turned me off to the place. I think I'll stick with the brick wall. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

Re: [AsburyPark] Day one...
The thing about the price gouging is the convention center shops do it always. It's always $50 for a hoody on there (Asbury park/Tilley type tops) so if that's what the concert tops are it doesn't seem so bad. We are on grand and 7th, I thought it would be mad here but it was very organized. All in all I think yesterday was a success. But..

Re: [AsburyPark] Day one...
So same could be said for the concert vendors. It's not gouging, it's all
the fees, setups and 'stuff' that drives up the pricing.
I don't have a problem with the convention center vendor pricing, I
support as much as possible. I was making a comparison. I guess it's
just unfortunate that MM gouge on rents.

Didn't knock myself out bidding. And your taxes will continue to rise. You
will eventually be picking up more and more of the school taxes. Good thing
they didn't piss another 45000 on a blue field. At some point enough is
enough.
I've had three offers in on houses in AP the past year. Out I'd each time
and not by much.

Its about time property taxes are levels out on two factors..
Square footage and lot size and a factor of market value.
Not your house is pretty or you have an extra bathroom or pretty
shutters.
All one has to do is look around AP. AP has a wide fluctuation for
similar properties. Tax appeals now are available through monmouth county
web site.
If you think you are paying to much look at your tax bill. You'll need
some recent sales to make your case.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: This is an absolute outrage
When we were fixing up our house all the copper wire we had under the house during construction went missing, that was just wire and it cost us a fortune to replace.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Asbury Fitness going out of business due to paid parking
I should reword - probably to possibly - i have no idea of their position and don't mean to speculate about it. But it seems to me as a business person that you don't just close your doors overnite, it's a long time coming perhaps you couple that with the fact that it's winter so there are less of us here, and this is the slowest time for the fitness world (pre holidays, after the beach) anyway etc etc. Could the parking contribute to that, sure, but i'm sure it could not be the only reason for a business closing their doors, we shoudn't blow it out of proportion.

Take the conversation further with the Americas Cup owner though, my husband and i spoke to him last saturday for a while about parking and at that point he was very happy with the paid parking, even if business is down he sees it as a huge benefit in the long term, plus you can't gauge business being down, there are now 3 coffee shops downtown (if you include the gelato place), maybe that's why business is down, we don't drink enough coffee to support 3 coffee shops. maybe now there's parking people will come from neighbouring towns for coffee. there are way too many variables at play to blame it one just one thing.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: 2003
We have to compare it to other towns though, if you lived and worked in Hoboken, Jersey City, Manhattan in the downtown areas you would have to pay for parking (when we lived in NY we paid nearly $000s/month for parking for a car and motorbike), it's a lifestyle choice we had to accept. Living in AP and working in AP is no different to that, much cheaper, but you would expect it to be much cheaper as it's the suburbs. It's tough to impose costs on people who have not paid them until now, and I understand that is not pleasant to increase your cost of living and I truly feel for those impacted, but perhaps we've not been in a reality until now. It's not dissimilar to gas pricing, when gas was $1.50/gallon it was not a reality, the rest of the world was paying $5 to $10 / gallon if not an oil producing nation. So when it raised to $3 / $4 here it put the country in a real situation as opposed to a deflated one. I don't mean to bring this up to raise a debate on gas prices here or cause some political debate, i'm just using it as a comparison about living in reality.

I think the America's Cup guy is reluctant to admit that his own push for paid parking has had a detrimental effect on his business. I work on Bond Street. Every employee at my company refused to buy a parking pass. In this economy, adding what amounts to another tax on your income simply isn't a good idea. Not only that, but I believe that if you buy the employee parking pass, you still have to park blocks away from where you work. Correct me if I'm wrong about that one.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Downtown paid parking went into effect today
I'm a weekday shopper - right now if i'm working from home and want to run out to grab a coffee i do a flyby on cookman, see if there's anywhere to park and if not head on to panera or somethign where parking is guaranteed. I know now that i'm sure to have parking now downtown and frankly if i'm running into a coffee shop to grab and go i won't bother paying to park (and i'm sure that others will be the same), that is a huge positive for the coffee shops and deli and grab and go places. If i need a change of scenery and want to grab my laptop to work somewhere else, same thing, i do a flyby, parking, yay, i'll go to cookman, no parking and panera here i come. Now there will be parking, i will pay if it's a stop and i'll spend more money down time as i wander and now buy 2 cups of coffee, maybe a snack etc. Same thing with lunch, quick stops at local shops, hell, i'll even join club a now as I can park for sure and not worry about missing class as i'm driving around looking for parking. I will happily pay for all those things. I'm sure i'm not unique in this philosophy, so the pure nature of freeing up spaces will drive more business for the merchants and that's what we want, give them a chance to survive in the off months and thrive in the on months. From a safety concern, in the UK you can pay your meter parking by text message or by calling a number and using an automated answering system - maybe something like that would be a good idea here. Then there'd be no fumbling around at midnite trying to pay the meter. Or maybe the bars/restaurants should have the meters insite or right outside in the lit areas so there's no deserted dark roads that we have to worry about.

Went down town, first time ever there is parking near taka, paid my $2 in the conveniently placed meter, dropped some money in a local business. Im happy, they're happy and everyone is a winner. In this weather if there'd been nowhere to park I wouldn't have come (and yes, I know taka validates parking in the garage) On Oct 19, 2011 6:23 PM, oakdorf oakd...@yahoo.com wrote: [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Downtown paid parking went into effect today
It could be good for business for other reasons too. For example, i never shop at Lush because there's no parking and the nature of what i'm buying is heavy. I don't mind paying a dollar to park and for sure if there's parking i would always shop there and support the local businesses. Same with most of the stores downtown - i would even buy the permit if i felt it worthwhile so i can have the convenience of shopping where i want to.

Instead of dumping properties, they either sold for proft or hold and manage and rent the properties. And yes, the value of your condo - is based on the supply on demand.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Reflections on Parking
Issue with resident only parking on public streets is some of the weekend folks. If you take a look on cookman at some of the cars parked, they have flyers on them and some of those flyers are a week old, what that means to me is weekend residents are parking in public streets for days when they're back in their monday to friday residences. That means those of us who want to go to cookman and park suffer as there's no parking and the stores suffer as we may well go elsewhere. Resident only parking would perpetuate that. If you live in a place with attractions (beach/shopping) it's price to pay. *Satisfied Customers on Receipt - Worldwide* Claire Davids Managing Partner i-Parcel LLC Tel: +12015491502 Mobile: +16464316239 www.i-parcel.com On Tue, Sep 20, 2011 at 1:34 PM, cbrianwatk...@gmail.com wrote: Visitor parking is not the issue, its residential that's the issue.

[AsburyPark] dogs on beach/boardwalk yet?
Hey all - does anyone know when dogs are allowed back on the beach/boardwalk? they still have the no dogs on boardwalk sign up on the southside of convention center, but we were at the bonfire on friday night and took the dog, there were some police and they didn't say anything about it. I've been doing early mornings on the beach too (and not restricted myself to 8th ave) but i can't find the real rules anywhere Thanks!! *Satisfied Customers on Receipt - Worldwide* Claire Davids Managing Partner i-Parcel LLC Tel: +12015491502 Mobile: +16464316239 www.i-parcel.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

At 8:00 am, Hurricane Irene was making her way through the northwest Bahamas with highest winds of 115 mph. Irene has been going through an ERC (eye replacement cycle) which has prevented additional strengthening, but that process is nearly complete and the hurricane will likely gain strength today and tonight. Forecast guidance has shifted the forecast track of Irene decidedly to the west. The track spray of the models are now all very close to the NJ shore. A couple have a landfall in Ocean City, MD and then northward along the Delaware River, a few more are right over the Jersey Shore and a few others are just offshore. The National Hurricane Center has issued a Hurricane Watch for the North Carolina coastadditional watches are likely further north today, tonight and tomorrow. The earliest time for a Hurricane Watch in New Jersey is late tonight or tomorrow morning. We are still 2 1/2 days away from impact, but given the trends of the forecast guidance, our area should prepare for, and expect, hurricane conditions on Saturday night and Sunday with the possibility of a direct landfall on New Jersey, which has not occurred since 1903. Assuming that Irene reaches Category 4 status later today, strikes eastern North Carolina on Saturday afternoon as a Category 3 storm and then tracks over or just east of our area as a Category 1 storm, wind gusts of 80mph are possible Sunday morning with perhaps 90 mph south of Atlantic City.

Re: [AsburyPark] On social issues...
It would be really great if to get involved and help out with some of the social issues here on a volunteer basis, but it's not easy to do. My husband and I signed up for a program with the high school to mentor kids who might actually make it to college (the 2 % or whatever the shockingly low number is), the theory being is the kids that may actually make it to college don't have the support structure at home or motivation or the family environment to understand the opportunities. it's run or managed by the boys and girls club, we interviewed, completed the paperwork, did the fingerprints / background checks and were told yup, this is great, we're so excited, we'll be in touch and introduce you to the kids you'll mentor and never heard back again. i kept following up and asking and same thing, was told they'd get in touch, and nothing more. after about 4 months we gave up, talk about a system failing.

Re: [AsburyPark] 1st Summer stage show and parking in front of my home.
Perhaps some rezoning of the parking areas? We live on 7th and paid parking is only in effect on the first block (where the northbeach is) it's not been done on 100 blocks and up. I walked past there at 8pm there was tons of parking still available around the berkely, paramount and northbeach. Seems a little unfair that if you live on 200 block in some areas you have paid parking and not in others when not all the paid parking is used all the time anyway (allthough as the season goes on it does get more full up down by the berkeley too. i really don't want to attract puke and rubbish onto my street but it does seem a little uneven.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Parking Progress (yes, i think this is progress)
Doesn't free employee parking give people an incentive to drive to work rather than take public transport or walk/ride bike?. Employers don't give bus fare or train fare so why give free parking?

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Disgraceful
As a parent is Asbury this is close to my heart. It is shocking. I cannot send my son to school here (and believe me i really want to as i think he should be part of the community), but his education and safety are more important. So i pay astronomical taxes (and i mean astronomical) and i pay private school fees. In fact, i now spend as much money in the combined schools fees and taxes as a friend of mine who lives in Larchmont NY (westchester county, which are the highest taxes in the NY area). I love AP, love living here and i keep saying, perhaps by the time my son reaches highschool age it will be better, but who am i kidding. Perhaps i should have moved to Wannamassa so i could still access AP easily but at least had a better school option. I'm sure that's what other families are thinking. On Sat, Mar 19, 2011 at 9:16 AM, Dennis Dubrow traderd...@comcast.netwrote: Disgraceful is as disgraceful does. All the nonsensical yakking about coming Back destination location and the art scene and the food scene don't mean a thing until the youth of Asbury Park are reined in, provided a safe, clean and wholesome place to grow and play and learn. And that starts in the schools and the AP school system is such a mess it makes the powdered and made up boardwalk and downtown seem like real deals. The only time the community rallies around the kids of Asbury Park is when there is some kind of athletic success. Protests , marches, parent demonstrations over sports, but have there been any such actions over the education of the same kids? Huge salaries to administrators to NOT come to work. Athletic Directors ripping off the kids but again all that matters is if the kids are winning games. Owning property in Asbury Park costs a fortune in property taxes, and young couples who are looking for a great place to live can't or won't choose Asbury Park because the school system flat out sucks. Come to Asbury Park and it's so easy to celebrate the musical legacy, a true musical legacy on a par with the likes of Memphis. But what of the legacy of Asbury Park High School. Other than slight mentions of Frank Budd every now then, how many know of the brilliant athletic legacy of Asbury Park? The generations that built that legacy are aging and passing on, all but forgotten, I understand the trophies and banners they won competing against the great high schools of North Jersey are long missing from the halls of one of the most beautiful high schools in the state. You want to really restore Asbury Park to it's former glory, make it a great place for families to raise their children, start at Kindergarten and don't stop until the graduating classes of APHS are known for more than a conference championship or two. Build the system from ground up and throw the corrupt and self serving crooks out of the school system. Make the entire Asbury Park school system, not just a team or two, worthy of celebration. And stop dissing the hard working volunteers who give their heart and souls to fixing a completely broken system that has been so mis-managed it could cause the closing of the once mighty APHS.
