Ok

Review: Dopo La Spiaggia’s Chef Brings Lighter Fare to Sag Harbor

After a split with a co-owner, Maurizio Marfoglia decided to stay and turn Tutto Il Giorno into something new, though some regulars may not have noticed the changes.

Getting there is the problem.

Fashion & Style

Margaret Smith, Joseph Brazauskas Jr.

Sooner is better.   As soon as you can is best.

New York Buildings With Communal Gardens

Some new residential developments are offering tenants space in on-site gardens, and at least one has created a farm on the building’s property.

Gardening is not a competitive sport.

Sooner is better.  As soon as you can is best.

One must do the job.

It is surprising how little thinking is done "on the road".

Real Estate

The Smell of Cat Urine From Next Door

A hygiene problem, damage from a contractor, and tracking work on a co-op’s exterior.

Cats require different attention than dogs.  The quantity is the same.

Opinion

Mercy Is Far Too Slow at the Justice Department

More can be done with powers that already exist to deal with the legacy of sentencing policies that have been recognized as destructively unfair.

The prison system has no reverse.
A system that adjusts mandatory sentences as the mandate changes runs counter to the theory that the law is absolute.
The law is a product of people and is subject to error.

Food

What to Cook This Week

Roasted potato hash is on the menu, along with Greek tomato salad and more.

OK.

End subsidies.

Jury Trials Vanish, and Justice Is Served Behind Closed Doors

Far fewer cases in recent decades are going to jury trials, as prosecutors are increasingly negotiating plea deals, a trend that some say disrupts a foundation of the American justice system.

People have the right to a jury trial if they insist on one.
Plea bargains are faster and cheaper.
