Five Port Chester men were accused Tuesday of riding in a stolen car bearing a stolen plate. Police said Marcos Pena, 23, was pulled over for erratic driving near Oakland Beach Avenue. Pena drove into a residential driveway and claimed that he lived there, until the homeowner came out to ask what was going on, police said. The 1992 Ford Thunderbird that the men were in had been reported stolen from Snap Sales, 305 Willett Ave., Port Chester, at 7 a.m. that day. Pena, of 44 Grove St.; Eziquel Ramirez, 24, of 51 Alto St.; and three men with no known addresses, Jose Ramos, 29, Mauricio Hernandez, 22, and Jose A.

Bloggers Are Still Excited About The Brody Case


by rht - a land use and appellate lawyer based in Honolulu, Hawaii


A New York federal court has ruled in favor of a property owner that a municipality wrongfully exercised eminent domain and denied the landowner procedural due process by not providing proper notice of his right to contest the taking. Brody v. Village of Port Chester, No. 00 Civ. 7481 (HB) (SDNY, July 18, 2007).

.....The rationale of the Brody decisions should have broad application any time a statutory scheme provides a finite time window to make a challenge to the government's determination of public use or the propriety of a condemnation. The government has an affirmative obligation to make reasonable attempts to inform the property owner, and those attempts must include "conspicuous mention" of any time limitations.

Pro golf tour returns to Concord this week


By GAVIN FARETRA

Monitor staff


When Meaghan Francella double-bogeyed the treacherous par-5, 16th hole at Beaver Meadow Golf Course in last year's Duramed Futures Tour event, the Port Chester, N.Y., native was distraught.


She had just thrown away a great chance to win the event - eventually tying for second - and with only four tournaments to play, was unsure whether or not she'd get one of the five coveted exemptions to play on the LPGA Tour in 2007.


Although angry, Francella remained undeterred and went on to finish in no worse than 16th place over the final four events, earning her tour card for the current LPGA season.


The Duramed Futures Tour - the LPGA's Developmental Tour - makes its fourth consecutive stop in the Capital Area and third straight at Beaver Meadow for this year's USI Championship....

Rye Brook Trustees Votes Condos for Konigsberg;


RFAC Considers Legal Action


Tuesday evening the Rye Brook Trustees approved Kip Konigsberg Bowman Avenue development. One of two things just happened: A. one of the most obvious flood mitigation opportunities just went down the proverbial drain; or B. the buyout price for the land just went way up for Rye City and Westchester County.


If government can’t organize itself a little better, that $50 million over five years Andy Spano set aside won’t mitigate very much.


MyRye.com received this update from the Rye Flood Action Coalition in reaction to the Bowman development:


It was not an unexpected setback for the Rye Flood Action Coalition. The development was approved after one of the Trustees tried to rationalize for 20 min. how she came up to her decision. It sounded more like an apology to us than an endorsement for the project........

A great catch Fishermen keep an eye out for bluefish


By Michael Dinan




Roger Cortello, 73, a retired chef from southern France, stretched his legs from a cooler set on Steamboat Road's stone pier yesterday afternoon and peered toward the spot where his fishing line disappeared into the gray Long Island Sound.


'I enjoy fishing, and I have nothing to do after breakfast and lunch. So far I've caught one bluefish,' said Cortello, a Utah resident who comes to Greenwich for six weeks each summer to cook for a wealthy woman that lives here. 'Maybe I cook it for her. Maybe not. I keep a few. We have three people cooking for the one lady.......

'Being green' just up to little guy?

"Don't make left turns." This is what my wife called me at work about after reading an article on saving fuel and becoming more "green." I wondered then, "How will I make it home?"

With the planet seemingly on the brink of collapse from global warming, I can only hope that some day we will end our reliance on gasoline, and have "clean"-burning fuels instead.......

....It would be refreshing to hear the CEOs of fossil fuel-producing companies, and even the president of the U.S., announce that cleaner, more environmentally friendly fuels are on the way- and soon! Then I can go back to making left turns and finally make it home.
