| A speeding pick-up truck being driven by a woman on the wrong side of Hudson Street in Little Ferry slammed into the front of an NJ Transit bus on Sunday afternoon, according to the bus driver, also a woman. The driver of the pick-up was taken to a hospital. |

For a Monday, the strong local focus of The Record's front page today is a revelation, but is it permanent?
What a difference.
Readers don't have to suffer through a tortured political column from Herb Jackson in Washington or another endless analysis of a national or international story.
Still, the security forces' assault on a high-end shopping mall in Nairobi, Kenya, has no place on Page 1, especially when President Obama has renewed the call for gun reform after a mass shooting in the Capitol (A-3).
Shit galore
As someone who has stepped in the shit left behind by lazy dog owners, I cheered the DNA testing of canines at a Riverdale condo complex (A-1).
Don't you love Governor Christie's deceptive TV campaign ads, especially the latest one in Spanish (A-3)?
The GOP bully was careful to get Leo Cervantes -- the owner of a Mexican restaurant at the shore -- to praise him after stiffing all of state's low-wage servers and other workers when he vetoed a hike in the minimum wage.
Of course, Cervantes loves Christie for allowing him and other wealthy restaurant owners to cheat their workers and boost their profits.
How appropriate. Dog shit on A-1, bullshit on A-3.
I couldn't find an expanded local obituary in the Local section today or Sunday, but don't miss two wire-service obits about people you have never heard of on L-5.
