Shared Driveway Parking Problems

Not all of us are good at sharing, particularly when it comes to coveted Brooklyn parking spots.

Check what your rights are on the lease.
I believe cars persistently parked in the shared drive can be removed at the owner's expense.   The tow operator has a lien on the towed car and so can additionally charge for storage. The neighbor will not love you so do not further offend them.

Fashion & Style

Rachael Dorman, Peter Janowski

The couple, who met in 2009 on a Birthright trip to Israel, were married in Brooklyn.

Marriage is a civil contract.

Samsung’s new smartphone has a serious battery defect and owners should exchange the device as soon as possible.

Trade it in.  Go to the operation you bought it from on line if you can.

I use a flip phone from Alcatel.  I will replace it when it dies with another flip phone.

Transformation on Brooklyn’s Southern Shore

There’s building boom in Sheepshead Bay, an oft-overlooked neighborhood.

Developers have less memory than their customers.

The banks will bathe in flood insurance.

Opinion

Rich School, Poor School

Readers discuss a Connecticut judge’s sweeping indictment of inequities in the state’s education system.

The tax base of the schools should be the entire state.
The courts and the police are another question.
Self funding smells bad.

The Insomnia Machine

When medicine fails, where can the sleepless turn?

Bring an insomnia machine.  I can sleep through most things.
