A fire reported around midnight Thursday damaged at least 12 cars and left a police officer injured at the Port Authority facility in Newark, authorities said. The cars had been parked on Craneway Street in an auto processing lot on Port Newark property, according to Steve Coleman, a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

The fire was extinguished by the Newark Fire Department. "The preliminary cause was a faulty car battery," Coleman said. In all, 12 vehicles were burned. Also, some of the other vehicles that were moved may have been damaged in the fire, Coleman said. Coleman said one officer who suffered smoke inhalation was treated at a local hospital and released. The Newark Arson Unit is investigating, Coleman said. Anthony G. Attrino may be reached at … [Read more...] about Officer hurt, more than 12 cars burned in Port Newark fire

“OBAMA’S DATA ADVANTAGE,” by Lois Romano, in Chicago: “The depth and breadth of the Obama campaign’s 2012 digital operation—from data mining to online organizing— reaches so far beyond anything politics has ever seen … that it could impact the outcome of a close presidential election. … Launched two weeks ago, Obama’s newest innovation is the much anticipated ‘Dashboard,’ a sophisticated and highly interactive platform that gives supporters a blueprint for organizing, and communicating with each other and the campaign. In addition, by harnessing the growing power of Facebook and other online sources, the campaign is building what some see as an unprecedented data base to develop highly specific profiles of potential voters. This allows the campaign to tailor messages directly to them -- depending on factors such as socio-economic level, age, and interests. … “[Obama for America officials are] … [Read more...] about 150 DAYS TO ELECTION DAY – FIRST WOODWARD-BERNSTEIN BYLINE IN WASHPOST IN 36 YEARS — “DOING [NOT SO] FINE” — Katty Kay on Siri; how to quick-scroll to top of your iPhone email
CBS News Logo New York City’s JFK International Airport struggles to recover after winter storm
NEW YORK -- Travelers' patience wore thin at New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport Sunday as long delays and compounding cancellations continued several days after a major winter storm battered the city, CBS New York reports. Strangers huddled for warmth as fellow travelers were confused, frustrated or downright outraged after spending yet another night at the airport. "I'm so angry words can't even express how I feel right now," Bill Carver from Austin, Texas, said. Tensions ran high as thousands shared horror stories. One group managed to forage cardboard and build ramshackle "neighborhoods." Others were stuck on dark planes on the tarmac for upwards of a day, waiting to deplane or even take off. "I was on the plane for a good 20 hours," frustrated traveler Michelle Lopez said. "They took us out once to eat, then we went back to the plane." Dimitri Grigoryev said he's been stuck at the airport for three days. "This is the third day, starting now," he said.
