"St Lawrence said today that the FBI asked for his records and he let them have the records.…Read More Now thats cooperation!"
Does that mean that St. Lawrence let the FBI have the records of his secret Cayman Island, Bahamian or Swiss bank accounts?

Ihear you. lots of respect for the Nyack FD. My statement was not made to slam what they do but was…Read More more directed towards how alarms like this can be verified before the guys get on the rigs and launch ther boats, and minimize the potential for an injury to the responding units, plus the costs. I would never knock how any volunteer operates, they do what they do out of the goodness of there hearts.

Rob, this also shows how quickly the fire department responds to such incidents. Had it been…Read More a boat in distress, they would have had it taken care of in a timely manner. I thank our firemen and our Sheriff's department Marine Unit for their quick response.

Didn't know Jade was involved like that! That's disappointing.

Hey IT the 4 above mentioned title companies u referenced above actually do have joint ventures set…Read More up with local attorneys or real estate brokerages. Research jade of new York for example. Is it fair to recommend companies when you have no idea what your talking about. At the very least rand has disclosures while the following companies you mentioned don't.

The fact of the matter is that there are many "other" interested parties that own or have…Read More a form of ownership in title companies. They include attorneys, banks/lenders, escrow companies and real estate brokers. A comment above mentioned RESPA which is an act put in place to protect consumers. A consumer DOES even need to ask any of the above if there could be a potential conflict of interest. They are required to sign an "acknowledgement" which indicates that the company/person your dealing with, COULD have an "affiliated relationship" with one or more of the "other" vendors you will be required to pay a fee to. If a consumer, a borrower or purchaser or both are asked to sign one of these "acknowledgements" it is safe to expect and assume they will be receiving additional monetary compensation from you under another corporate entity/required service (title, appraisal, home inspector, tax paying agency, etc.). Having said that there are a few, (very few these days) of completely independent reputable title companies that have ONLY the interest of there clients (buyers/borrowers) and underwriters to be concerned with. I would implore consumers to research those companies (Jade Abstract, Rockwest Abstract, Judicial Title, Hudson Valley Abstract to name a few) to maintain some control over the fee(s) they pay and in an effort to insure that the company they deal with, deals with them as a PRIMARY concern.

If some guy beat me up- and broke my arm in the process, i would want him punished- yes.... however,…Read More i dont believe a 5 year prison sentence for beating somebody up is justified.. Yes- it was a police officer and this kid did have drugs on him which is bad... i think he should spend a year or two in the county jail.. but at such a young age, 5 years in a state prison with serious criminals will NOT rehabilitate this young man.. Instead, he will get used to prison life and likely make some inmate friends in the process. The likelihood of recidivism will be so high. AGAIN... i am not saying he should not be punished..but i believe in rehabilitation, and 5 years in prison will not rehabilitate this young man

It creates a lot of revenue in taxes. That is why Bloomberg is after big sodas and not cigarettes.
