Do you know someone who lives on Staten Island or in NY/NJ who's currently involved in a dispute they need resolving and wants to go on TV to do it? We want to hear from you! Could be exes fighting over custody of a pet, homeowners with a neighbor problem, friends who no longer speak over a loan, a property line dispute, whatever. If your story is picked, two professional mediators will help settle the issue once and for all and it will air on a major cable network. Have anyone you think might be interested e-mail their story ASAP to

Didn't think I'd like it, but it's one of the best versions I've ever heard ....

Hylan Blvd @ New Dorp Lane


NYC DOT EVDO: 10/4/2012 1:39 pm

Some drivers are complaining that the uniforms smell musty or mildewy. Anybody notice same?

Maybe the Office staff should try to drvie thru that in the afternoon and see how bad it really is, They might not be as nasty to drivers then... 

Or maybe the gestapos at OPT should make that drive. They sent a picture from a traffic cam on Hylan and New Dorp Lane to "prove" that there was no traffic problem on Hylan Blvd and threatened to fine the company for every bus citing that for the reason for being late.

That there was congestion caused by roadwork and traffic light maintenance at several points before New Dorp Lane apparently did not enter their holier-than-thou minds.

This article in the Advance documents part of the problem Tuesday afternoon ... http://www.silive.com/eastshore/index.ssf/2012/10/workers_clean_staten_island_tr.html

Good luck collecting those fines!
