I was in union city and this situation occurred. I decided to be safe and yielded to all right turning vehicles but the cars behind me honked and one tried to go around me to turn left. Was wondering what the exact rules are around this. Is it legal to turn left?

Advice Ezpass is the worst.

28 Upvotes

I just woke up and my parents told me I had mail from ezpass. The violation was from a day I payed cash and noticed I was shorted money. I was at the sign that says thank you after you pay when I noticed then i reversed slightly and told the worker about the money. I wasnt given a receipt of the transaction I paid so I dont have proof. It was a $2.10 fee at the time and I handed a five. Any chance I won't have to pay? Im going to call tomorrow.

Central Jersey Somerville-based psychedelic rock/dream pop band seeking members

16 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’m (33M) a producer, singer, multi instrumentalist in Somerville. I specialize in keys and synthesizer but I also play guitar, bass, drums, and sing. I am looking for some talented musicians who want to join a psychedelic rock band.

We are looking for four members. A soprano singer, bassist, synthesist, and lead guitarist.

The music itself is synthy psychedelic rock with dream pop, stoner rock, and dark folk influences. There is a heavy social commentary aspect tied to the music and the overall work. It is humanistic in nature, a satirical critique of classical institutions like religion and politics.

We love bands like Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Fleet Foxes, Radiohead, Black Sabbath, crumb, men I trust, mild high club, Brian Eno, Tangerine Dream, Khruangbin, Queens of the Stone Age, Wolfmother, and others.

We are looking for a singer with a higher range (more soprano than alto) and dynamic delivery. A delicate and intimate timbre (Ala men I trust) is something we’re after for much of the music, but some of it gets louder and harder so comfortability with a range of styles and deliveries is preferred. Songwriting experience is a plus. The ability to harmonize is preferred. (Vocals will be a shared effort, there is no “lead” vocalist per se, just whatever the song calls for!)

For the guitarist and bassist, we are looking for string players who have an innate understanding of their instrument. Songwriting experiences preferred. We are after a modern vintage sound, so in the realm of fuzzy, ripping, distorted, and riffy sections, tempered by more dry, clean, edge of breakup, jangly vintage tones, ala George Harrison, or more modern slacker rock like Mac.

Also looking for a second synth player!

Happy to send along some sound clips to anyone who is interested.

I have a lot of music written for this project and I am looking for dedicated creatives who want to help finish writing and recording the album and play it out live. My goal is to put together a group of people who enjoy being around each other and who enjoy making music that they can all be excited about. Maybe that’s you!

Looking forward to chatting 😊

I'm turning 18 this week and registered to vote online a couple weeks ago, but now I'm checking and it says I'm not registered. this happened over the summer as well, but I thought it was an error on my part or just a bug. has this happened to anyone else? I know the deadline to register is over now, so I'm kind of upset about that :(

Advice Does anyone have any insight on how to access a 12-year-old's medical records. Hackensack meridian health locks the portal when the child turns 12.

Now the parents do not have access to the child's medical records at all. When asked Hackensack meridian health says you need to fill out a form but nobody on their team knows where to send this form. I find it absurd New Jersey locks children's medical records automatically. Anyone else navigate this nonsense or upset about it?

🌼🌻Garden State🌷🌸 Garden State Lens, a group photography show, is oppening this Friday at the Morris Museum. The Museum is the second largest in the State!

Post image
9 Upvotes

....."In this major exhibition, candid photography—unscripted, unposed images taken from everyday life—by eleven contemporary artists explore the lives lived in the nation’s most densely populated and ethnically diverse state. Garden State Lens presents scenes of New Jerseans going about their everyday lives. We see them raise their families, earn a living, come together as a community, and enjoy the state’s great outdoors. Powerful images—some printed at titanic scale, others more modestly sized—upend the typecast idea of our state through popular television shows and social media. More than 100 photographs on view instead offer nuanced and authentic glimpses of the incredible human tapestry that makes contemporary life in the state so exceptional.

From a visual chronicle of the Cowtown Rodeo to the elegance of the state’s monumental industrial sites such as the IMTT Bayonne Terminal and attendees at a lively street festival in Jersey City, the photographers—each active in New Jersey today, and working in color and black and white media—ply their talent in capturing a snapshot of contemporary life in the state. Among the Museum’s collections, there is an important cache of photographs and photographic equipment that will be included in the exhibition.".....
