Remembering the Newark riots. Nice to know they've sorted everything out since then. [NYT]

Breaking Newark News (Did We Really Just Say That?)

We know it is not particularly cool for those of us in New York to care about what goes on across the Hudson River, unless perhaps it's happening within the city limits of Montclair. But if you'll forgive a Jersey native for a moment: Sharpe James dropped out of the Newark mayoral race less than an hour ago, and that's sort of amazing. Especially after his high-drama entry a week and a half ago, when he put on a tank top, a straw hat, and rode a police bike across Newark City Hall to deliver his petitions. It ends an era in Jersey's biggest city.
