Ridgewood NJ, according to Marcia Ringel of Preserve Graydon ,the  Summer weather is quixotic. How do you know when Graydon has been temporarily closed because of thunder or lightning?

Look for the flag: red means closed, green means open, as at the Shore. A yellow flag means that Graydon is open provisionally; patrons should be prepared to leave in case the predicted bad weather strikes. (No rip tides.)

Notification of closure due to weather was requested at a Village Council meeting by longtime resident Boyd Loving, and the village followed up with the flags. Maybe in the future the triggering of the lightning detection system could be connected to the website? Or sent automatically to members via email? On the wish list.

THE RECORD

It’s been a year since federal prosecutors quietly dropped a bombshell in the corruption trial of Joseph Ferriero, one that raised troubling questions about the justice system in Bergen County.

Without offering details, they alleged that a decade ago the onetime Democratic Party leader, since convicted on racketeering and fraud charges, had secretly received nearly $500,000 to influence the case of a Teaneck dermatologist accused of sexually assaulting two women patients. In a prosecution that still is surrounded by many questions, the doctor, Gangaram Ragi, was allowed to enter a program that spared him a trial on charges that could have yielded a prison sentence and lifetime registration as a sex offender. And while fining him and barring him from treating women, state licensing officials allowed him to continue his practice.

Since news broke of the government’s assertion — contained in court filings and court transcripts — and in the wake of a series of articles by The Record, the state has toughened its disciplinary process for doctors accused of sexual misconduct with patients.
