LGA Groundbreaking Gets VP Kick-Off
By Jon Cronin
Staff Writer
Vice President Joe Biden and Gov.
Andrew Cuomo were on hand to kick
off the groundbreaking of the new LaGuardia Airport.
Pat Foye, executive director of the
Port Authority of New York and New
Jersey said, “Today is a day about vision, accomplishment and about
promises kept but it is also a day about
creation of jobs and economic development.”
Taking the stage, Cuomo stated,
“This airport is really the front door
to New York. This is 20 billion dollars
in commerce. Most people coming to
New York come right through this
airport and this airport has been long
overdue for a new airport.”
Cuomo announced, “This is not
going to be a building of what was, this
is going to be a whole new airport, one
unified state of the art airport for the
first time.”
He boasted of an AirTrain that will
connect the whole airport and fliers to
the LIRR that will take people right to
Manhattan and a ferry with access to
the new airport. Cuomo said the airport will move 600 feet closer to the
Grand Central Parkway, which will increase flight operation 240 percent.
During the construction phase of
this $7 billion project, he said, 18,000
direct and indirect jobs will be created.
“We’re not just building an airport,” he said, “We’re building an airport which is a piece of an entirely new
vision that revitalizes New York.”
He pointed out that Penn Station
will be given a state of the art upgrade
and two new tracks for the LIRR as
well as the East-Side Access bringing

airport on Tuesday.
the LIRR to Grand Central Station,
and Manhattan will see a $1 billion expansion to the Javitz Center.
“LaGuardia itself is exciting, but
LaGuardia itself is part of a $100 billion investment in infrastructure, the
largest investment in New York State’s
infrastructure in modern history and
that’s long overdue.”
He added that part of that is a $27
billion dollar investment in the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
“That is going to be the state’s future.
We’re going to be moving more and
more people through mass transit and
I’m proud to be the Governor that
made the largest investment in MTA’s
history,” Cuomo said.
Cuomo then politely ribbed the
Vice President when referring his January 2014 statement that “If you were
landing in LaGuardia blind folded,
then took off the blindfold, you would
think you were in a third world country.”
“He was right,” Cuomo added.
“I’ve kidded the Vice President about
it a few times.”
He noted that was the popular interpretation of Biden’s comment, but
his actual statement was, “If you were
blinded folded and landing in Hong
Kong, you would think you were in a
modern state of the art airport in the
United States. If you landed in LaGuardia blindfolded, you would think
you were in a third world country.”
His comment, Cuomo said, was meant
to illustrate how far behind the U.S.
was in investing in its infrastructure.
Biden said after World War II until the 1970s, our country invested
four percent of the GDP into infrastructure, whereas “today we invest
less than one percent.” Biden noted
that our country is ranked 26th in the
world in transportation infrastructure,
then asked, “How can that stand?”
After apologizing for his lateness,
due to a meeting with the national
security advisors about the incident
in Orlando, and congratulating Commissioner Bill Bratton on his response
to security enhancements during cautious times, he came to back to his
commitment toward transportation,
“I’m called Mr. Infrastructure and
sound like a broken record about what
we are not doing.”
He discouraged any naysayers of
the project. “We can’t do it?” he asked
unbelievably, pointed out that in the
1980s, many thought Japan would
own everything in our country, and
at the turn of the 21st Century others
thought China would dominate the
new millennium. He noted that our
economy is recovering faster than any
other nation in the world, “We can’t
do it? My God.”
LaGuardia was built in 1931 and
now accommodates 14 million people
a year and when it is rebuilt will accommodate 17.5 million. Biden believes that the city and state has passed
the airport by in the digital age and as
doorway to this country, the airport
should reflect change.
“We are still the most progressive,
most powerful, most ingenius country in the world and that’s just a fact.
That’s not bragging, that’s just a simple straightforward fact.”
“This is going to make a big difference,” he concluded while thanking
Gov. Cuomo.

Registered Sex Offender Resides At Pan Am
By Ariel HernAndez
Staff Writer
A registered sex offender is living
at the already-controversial Pan Am
Shelter in Elmhurst, the Queens Tribune has learned.
A recent update to the Division
of Criminal Justice Services website
states that a 47-year-old, level 3 sex
offender, Dwayne Clark, is living at
79-00 Queens Blvd., which is the address to the approximately 200-bed,
600-resident, family shelter.
The office of state Sen. Toby Ann
Stavisky (D-Flushing) contacted the
Pan Am Shelter and according to
Stavisky, they refused to confirm
Clark’s residential status at the shelter.
“This is outrageous,” Stavisky told
the Queens Tribune. “This man is a lifetime registered sex offender that immediately and physically overpowered
children. This is not a socially responsi-
ble individual due to the likelihood that
this crime can be committed again.”
According to the DCJS website,
Clark sexually assaulted a 10-year-old
girl and two 13-year-old girls in 1993.
The crime was described as sexual
abuse to the first degree, with contact
by forcible compulsion. He was convicted in 1995 with a 30-month to 5
year state prison sentence.
Stavisky is outraged that the Department of Homeless Services would
allow this man to be put into a family shelter that is home to primarily
mothers and fathers with children.
“It’s mind-boggling,” Stavisky said.
“DHS and the city have to reexamine
the policy to assign people to shelters.
The fact that they would allow a level
3 sex offender to live in a family shelter only goes to show that they did not
conduct a background check.”
In a statement Stavisky released
on Tuesday, she said that DHS is sup-
reported,” Stavisky said. “I call on
DHS and Samaritan Village to remove this individual immediately,
if they have not already done so.
The well-being and safety of the
children in the shelter and surrounding community is at stake.”
DHS’ Senior Advisor for Communications, Lauren Gray, responded by stating that there are
no sex offenders at the Pan Am
Shelter.

Support Grows For Jamaica-LIC Light Rail

At last week’s Community

Elizabeth Crowley (D-Glendale)
presented her proposal for a light

transportation,” said Councilwoman
Karen Koslowitz (D-Forest Hills).
“Crowley has been working extremely
hard for this project for quite some time
and I will continue to support her.”
Earlier this month, Crowley wrote
a letter to the city’s Department of
Transportation, asking for the funds
for the light rail study, which the entire Queens City Council delegation
signed.
In the letter, Crowley wrote that the
current travel conditions are inconvenient and difficult for residents and
that it’s “vital we take advantage of any
opportunity to life this burden.”
Back in March, Crowley received
the endorsement from Borough President Melinda Katz, whom wrote a letter
to the Metropolitan Transit Authority
fully in support of the proposal.
Earlier this week, the Fiscal Year
2017 budget was released, in which
Mayor Bill de Blasio, Speaker Melissa

Advocates Fret Over
Flushing West In Limbo
Since the Department of City
Planning froze plans for the Flushing
West re-zoning at the end of May,
questions remain for developers,
community members and advocates
about the neighborhood’s future.
Chief among the questions for
the Flushing Rezoning Community
Alliance is affordable housing in the
absence of required low-and-middle-income housing that was tied to
the rezoning.
“This neighborhood is likely
to still see intense level of as-ofright development that will not
be built without the mandatory
affordable units from MIH,” they
wrote in a statement.
Meanwhile, Downtown Flushing continues to grapple with overcrowding on the no. 7 train and air
and water pollution – issues that
advocates had made an effort to tie
in with the re-zoning in hopes of advancing them.
Community Board 7 had planned
to hold a meeting Tuesday on the issue but it was postponed after the
DCP announced it would not move
forward with the project. Instead, the
board will hold a Committee Meeting on the Flushing West rezoning
and related issues on June 28.

In YOur OpInIOn
Reforms Will Keep New Yorkers Out of Jail
In Our OpInIOn
After Orlando
BY COUNCILMAN RORY
LANCMAN
The massacre at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Fla. have left
all of us shocked and saddened.
Though there’s still a lot more to be investigated, it is looking
more and more like this act was by a troubled man who merely
used fundamentalist views in his religion to justify slaughtering
innocent LGBT lives. This was not an attack ordered by any specific
group. In some ways, this is indeed more terrifying. Lone wolves
are harder to stop. They can easily fall below the radar – just look
at Newtown, Columbine and San Bernardino. They all had one
thing in common; weapons of mass destruction.
There are some things we can do. First, we can do a better job
by taking “killing” machines out of the hands of potential attackers. That the shooter, Omar Mateen, was able to legally buy
a gun that killed 49 people is outrageous, especially after he had
been interviewed twice by the FBI and was known to be an angry,
violent, threatening individual.
We need to demand our representatives in Washington enact
common sense gun reform, including background checks that
prevent the mentally ill and those on terrorist watch lists from
owning a gun. We need to go further and ban assault rifles.
There’s just no justification for them. Yes, our Constitution gives
Americans the right to bear arms, but the Second Amendment
calls for protecting our property and family; no true hunter needs
36 rounds or more to bring down a deer.
More important, we cannot let this attack divide us as a nation.
Those few pre-dawn hours in Orlando showed the worst of
America; we need to show the best. So far that’s happening. We
saw it in the response from emergency officials; the actions of
doctors in Orlando who saved 53 lives; from the hundreds who
lined up in the oppressive Florida heat to donate blood – some
of whom were Muslim – and to the diverse crowd of people who
showed up in Jackson Heights Sunday night to express love and
support, especially for the grieving LGBT community. That is the
best of the best within us.
It also means not allowing egomaniacal billionaires to demagogue their way to power by scaring Americans into betraying
their values, and demanding that we scapegoat one billion people
for the actions of a few. Unfortunately, we have seen anti-Muslim
attacks here in Queens, with the attack of a Muslim storeowner in
Astoria, firebombing of mosques in Jamaica and reports of girls
having their hijabs pulled off in schools.
None of those people were responsible for what Mateen did, or
for what any other person inflicting violence in the name of Islam
has done. We cannot allow ourselves to be so overcome with fear
and hate that we become our worst selves.
That’s who Omar Mateen was. We know we are better!

iking on the sidewalk. Drinking
from an open container. Littering.
These are all frustrating acts that,
as a city, we want to discourage. However,
I don’t believe any of these actions rise
to a level that merits putting someone
through the criminal justice system.
That’s why I was proud to join my Council
colleagues in passing the Criminal Justice
Reform Act, a package of legislation that
will change the way we enforce low-level,
quality-of-life offenses.
For decades, if a police officer saw
an individual doing one of these violations, he would write a summons that
would land that individual in criminal
court. At the courthouse, he would wait
in line, often for several hours, to
go before a judge for all of thirty
seconds. Then he would wait in
another line to pay a fine. If he
missed his court date, as about
one million New Yorkers have,
a warrant would be issued for
his arrest. This has led, countless
times, to New Yorkers spending
a night or a weekend in jail, all
because they stayed in a park
after dark once or played their
radio too loud.
That’s a consequence far too
harsh for the ‘crime’ and far more
than is necessary to deter bad
conduct. Under the new bills,
these offenses will be moved to
the civil system. When someone
commits one of these offenses, a
police officer will still be able to
stop them, get ID, and give them
a summons. But instead of be-

ing forced through the criminal justice
system, they will simply have a civil
fine which can be contested at a civil
administrative hearing.
This is the kind of common sense
criminal justice reform that the Council has spearheaded. These reforms
recognize that the weight of our courts
should not be brought down on lowlevel offenders. We know that even one
night in jail can have a lasting impact
on someone’s life. We know that being
forced to spend all day at court to pay
a $50 fine means eight hours someone
wasn’t working or spending time with
their family. With the passage of the
Criminal Justice Reform Act, we’re making it clear that we don’t think any New
Yorker should suffer these consequences
for low-level offenses.

Making Queens A Healthcare Destination
By Lynn Edmonds
Staff Writer
Jaclyn Mucaria, Chief Operating
Officer of New York-Presbytarian/
Queens, has a vision in mind, she told
guests at a Business Forum Breakfast at
Queens College on Friday.
She doesn’t want Queens Residents to
have to travel west to Manhattan or east
to Long Island to see a top-notch doctor.
“People seem to feel like to get high
quality care one must go to the city.
But what we are doing, we are bringing
the city to you,” Mucaria said.
The hospital, a partnership between
NY Presbyterian, Weill Cornell Medical Center, and New York-Presbyterian/Queens hospital, is well on its way
to achieving that result. With 31,711
inpatient discharges every year, 3,768
employees and 1,708 physicians, they
serve a large population. And they’ve
received recognition as a top performer in general health, cardiovascular
care, oncology, digestive issues, orthopedics, and pediatrics.
But what’s missing is the brand recognition to draw the choosiest customers. Nearly 80 percent of their patients
are insured by Medicare or Medicaid,
while about 20 percent are commercially insured. While the hospital is
committed to serving all patients, the
payer mix hurts their bottom line because the federal programs offer lower
reimbursements to hospitals than
commercial insurers.
The hospital’s goal is to attract more
of those commercially insured patients.
One of their focuses in this regard
is to pay attention to the patient experience.
Helen Lavas, Senior Director and
Chief Patient Experience Officer, said
personal experience drove her to care
about patients’ comfort and satisfaction, which can impact health outcomes in a number of ways. During a
scarring hospital experience 36 years
ago, Lavas lost her newborn child and
faced a serious threat to her own life.
Now, she is dedicated to making sure
other patients do get the kind of support they need when dealing with lifethreatening and emotionally painful
medical issues.
“I need to be there at the hospital to
make sure that everyone is listened to,
everyone is made to feel cared for, as if
they are the only person that is being
cared for,” Lavas said.
Part of her task is catering to a diverse patient population. The largest
section of the patients, at 58 percent,
speak English, while Chinese, at 22
percent, and Spanish, at 13 percent,
are the second and third most common languages.
Staff who speak these languages are
available. But with 138 languages spoken in Queens, the work doesn’t end
there. The hospital needs to make sure
the language needs of every patient are
met. Additionally, every country has
its own culture around sickness and
health. Doctors and nurses need to be
aware of those norms in order to give
patients the best experience and help
them heal quickly.
“For a nurse on a unit, there may
be a patient population that they like
you to sit with them and provide eye
contact, and in the next bed, there’s no
such thing, that’s a sign of disrespect,”
Mucaria said.
She added that that the hospital
would also be focusing on staff recruitment and facility renovations. “We
will be putting a lot of dollars,” into
upgrading facilities, she stressed.

Tears And Anguish As Queens
Mourns Florida Massacre Victims
By Domenick RafteR, eDitoR in chief
At times, too overcome with
emotion to talk, Councilman Danny
Dromm (D-Jackson Heights) stood
at the podium, wiped his eyes and
thanked everyone for coming. On a
chilly, breezy June evening, under
royal blue skies, only a week after a
happy colorful celebration occupied
the same space, more than a 100
gathered in a somber, sorrowful tone
mixed with anger and a dose of fear.
A little more than 12 hours after
the worst mass shooting in American history, the crowd gathered in
Diversity Plaza in Jackson Heights
to mourn, reflect and call for unity
and peace. Surrounding tables with
candles and rose pedals, attendees
listened to the parade of speakers,
some shedding tears, nodding their
heads and embracing each other.
The shock was obvious, the anger
palpable, the sadness overwhelming.
Tears And Heartbreak
At around 2 a.m. Sunday morning, Omar Mateen, 29, a Queensborn resident of Florida, stormed into
Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando,
Fla. and opened fire with his AR-15
rifle. By the time police stormed the
club and killed Mateen three hours
later, he had already killed 49 people
– the highest death toll of any mass
shooting in American history.
The attack appeared to be influenced by the shooter’s apparent hatred for LGBT people and perhaps
by fundamentalist Islam. Reporters
indicate Mateen declared allegiance
to ISIS before the shooting, though
he also was apparently a regular at
the club and had profiles on several
LGBT dating apps.
In the aftermath, concerns have
arisen over possible backlash
against Muslims in the United States
– perhaps coming from LGBT people. Dromm sought to use Sunday’s
vigil as a chance to unite the two
communities.
Fighting through tears, the openlygay councilman who was thrust into
the public eye a quarter century ago
after the murder of Julio Rivera, who
was killed because of his sexuality,
just blocks from where the vigil took
place, pleaded for peace.
“We cannot allow these attacks to tear us apart,” Dromm said,
holding up a sign that said “I Am
Muslim.”
A Call For Unity
Ali Najmi, president of the Muslim
Democratic Club of New York, reminisced on the history of that sign.
Several years ago, as some Republi-

cans were calling for an investigation
into Muslims in the United States,
Dromm stood with the Muslim community against profiling.
“Dromm and the LGBT community stood with us against Islamaphobia,” Najmi said. “We must stand
with them now.”
The vigil was organized by
Dromm and several religious organizations including SUKHI New York,
a nonprofit that manages events at
Diversity Plaza and is run by Pakistani-American Agha Saleh.
“Nobody can divide us on the basis of extremism, color, faith, creed
or race,” he said. “We are one nation
under God.”
Council Majority Leader Jimmy
Van Bramer (D-Sunnyside) called for
unity, but also for LGBT and Muslim
people to publicly express pride in
who they are.
““If you are LGBT, walk through
the streets, be proud. Hold hands,
even kiss your partner,” he said.
“And if you are Muslim, walk through
the streets, hold hands, be proud, be
strong. We are all in this together.”
The vigil brought in some of the
city’s top officials, including Council
Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito, Public Advocate Letitia James and City
Comptroller Scott Stringer.
“This is about extremism, not reli-
gion,” Mark-Viverito said.
James perhaps made the greatest call for unity, describing the 50
lives lost as “50 reasons to stand together.”
But it was Stringer who raised the
volume. Angry, and at times animated, Stringer called for gun control.
“We think about the text from the
son to his mother; ‘I’m going to die,’
... because of a hateful individual
who walked into a store and, just
like buying a new phone, this ma-
niac walked in and bought an assault
weapon and then went to a nightclub
and caused mayhem,” he said loudly
into the microphone.
A Community Reacts
In Jackson Heights, Queens residents shared in the sense of shock,
anger and sadness.
“My heart goes out to all of those
people who lost their lives,” said
Jorge Mendez, a Jackson Heights
native. “I can’t imagine heading to a
club to have a good time and within
minutes, finding that my whole existence is in danger because of who I
love.”
Justin Grey, an openly gay man,
admitted to having nightmares about
the Orlando shooting.
“When I was gay and closeted a
year ago, I knew the type of hatred
that man had when he went in there
shooting, but nothing in my right
mind would ever go and mass murder all of those people,” Grey said.
“While no one knows for sure what
provoked this man, the rumors suggest that he may have had his own
kind of self-hate for being gay. That
may or may not be true, but it doesn’t
give you a right to decide whether
these people live or die because of
who they love. Gay people don’t go
around shooting or killing straight
people because they love the opposite sex. It’s extremely upsetting.”
Jose Mora, also a Queens resident, noted that his mind was on the
families of the victims.
“All I can think about is the families of those who lost their lives,”
he said. “They all went out to have
a good time, mingle and meet new
people and in a split second they
were met with gunfire. The craziest turn of events and their families
never got to say their good-byes. It
breaks my heart to know that.”
Julian Mora identified more local
issues and gun control in the wake
of the attacks.
“Is no one questioning how this
man got into the club with a gun in
the first place? I live in Astoria, where
Club Purlieu was just shut down after
gunfire erupted and I can’t figure out
how these nightclubs don’t guarantee for people’s safety,” said Mora. “It
takes people getting shot before real

OP-ED
Don’t Let Homophobia Become Islamophobia
By CounCilman Daniel
Dromm
In the wake of Sunday’s tragic mass
shooting at Pulse, a gay nightclub in
Orlando, Florida, dozens of lesbian,
gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT)
and Muslim Jackson Heights residents
stood side by side in Diversity Plaza
to denounce all forms of violence and
to pay their respects to the victims
of this massacre and their families.
For me, a long-time Jackson Heights
resident and LGBT activist, this heartwarming demonstration of love and
solidarity is what makes our neighborhood such a unique place in which to
live. It stands out in stark contrast to
the hate speech of Donald Trump and
all those who seek to pit one group
of people against another rather than
come up with real solutions to ending
hate crimes and gun violence.
Anger is a natural response to senseless violence. But we must push back
against the opportunists who seize this
opportunity to stoke the flames of Islamophobia and anti-LGBT sentiment
within our respective communities.
We must channel our anger and grief
into positive action, and advocate for the
passage of common sense gun control
measures. It is inexcusable that our Republican-led Congress allowed the 1994
ban on military-style assault weapons
to expire in 2004. These weapons – like

actions are taken. Nightclubs need
to be sure that weapons aren’t allowed, weapons, drugs, all of that.
Why are we still having these conversations? A nightclub in the city
was also shot up by a rapper by the
name of Troy Ave. There’s a pattern, I think we need to do something about this issue and fast because aside from it probably being
a hate-crime or a terrorist attack,
there are ways to prevent these
things from happening without affecting the second amendment.”
Victor Franco, an openly-gay
man and Jackson Heights native,
said he disagreed with the attack
being called terrorism.
“Officials originally called it a
terrorist attack, but I can’t see how
that’s possible,” he said. “This was
a clear hate-crime and I hope that
something gets done about this
soon, so that no one else loses
their lives.”
A Sense of Hope
While melancholy, there were
some at Sunday’s vigil who thought
some good could come out of the
tragedy. Few attendees at the rally
who spoke to the Queens Tribune
worried that the attacks would further divide the country or lead to a
terrible backlash against Muslims.
“I think we’re going to see our
groups unify more,” said Sam Charley, a Jackson Heights resident
who attended the vigil. “There’s the
rest of the country and then there’s
this community. I see LGBT people
and Muslims interacting here all the
time. There’s more that unites them
than divides them and they know
that.”
Indeed while many of the speakers were delivering their words of
comfort and mourning Sunday evening, a gay couple stood in Diversity Plaza, unabashedly embracing.
Eventually, the two entered a casual conversation with two women
in hijabs.
“Are you married?” one woman,
in a heavy accent, asked.
“No,”
“Well why not?” the woman
asked again with a smile.
The four laughed and continued
their conversation. In that moment
the horror and bloodshed of Orlando seemed a million miles and a
million years away.

Gift Guide For DIY
Dads And Grads
Father’s Day and graduation season are the perfect opportunities to
beef up your gift recipient’s garage
-- and high-quality tools are a must
for anyone -- from DIY novices to
professional handymen.
“A quality tool goes a long way
toward getting a job done quickly
and efficiently,” says Jon DeArment,
president and COO, Channellock,
Inc., a leading manufacturer
of tools. “Damaged gear
can slow down work
and be dangerous to
the user.”
Here are a few
gifts to consider:
• Every one needs
a good set of screwdrivers designed to withstand the rigors of daily
use. This is a great gift idea
for different budgets, since screwdrivers can typically be purchased
individually or in sets. A good-quality
option should feature a tube and bits
that pull out and reverse easily to configure the driver needed for each job.
• No home should be without a
versatile plier. Consider one durable
enough that Dad may be able to
pass it on to you one day. For example, the American-made CHANNELLOCK Straight Jaw Tongue and
Groove plier features laser heattreated teeth to provide a better grip
and a reinforcing edge to minimize
stress breakage.
• Replace a clunky old wrench
with something better. Look for a
thinner wrench that can get into hard
to reach areas, while also featuring
greater jaw capacity to support larger nuts and bolts.
• Looking to go big? Consider a comprehensive set of
go-to tools useful for different tasks. Take the
guesswork out of the
equation with a great
gift set, such as the
Tool Roll-3 PC Professional Plier Set with
Tool Roll. Put together
by Channellock, this set
includes all the most popular
tools -- a lap joint cutting plier, two
different sizes of their iconic Straight
Jaw Tongue and Groove Pliers, a
slip joint plier and a long nose plier.
These gifts are available at local retail stores and online at www.channellock.com.
Whatever tools you choose this
Dad and grad season, the biggest
joy will be hanging out and completing a project together with your gift.

Math Scores are Slipping:
How Your Child Can Buck the Trend
As Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics skills are gaining
importance in the job market, American students’ math test scores are
slipping.
A recent study
shows a growing percentage of 12th grade
students performing
below the basic level
in math, and only a
quarter of 12th graders tested at or above
proficient
achievement level, according
to the National Assessment of Educational Progress.
As a parent, what can you do to
help your child improve grades and
test scores in math?
Select Course Work Wisely
Talk to your children about what
their future plans are for college, being sure to discuss career opportunities in STEM. Even if he or she is uncertain now, talking about the future
can be motivational. Steering their career path early will help them remain
focused and on target for their larger
goals.
If any questions arise, your child’s
teachers can be a great resource for
information and advice.
Better Math Gear
You can motivate students and
bolster academic performance by providing them with the technology they
need to succeed.
“As students get
older and enter advanced classes, they
will need higher-functioning tools to solve
difficult
equations
quickly, and explore
more complex connections and applications,” said Dr. Karen
Greenhaus, education technology expert at Casio America, Inc. “Be sure
to provide your child with calculators
that have menus and processes right
on the screen, which will help reduce
the amount of time it takes for them to
work out the equation and get to more
in-depth learning and conceptual understanding.”
Greenhaus notes that it’s also important to find calculators that are
permitted on important tests, such as
AP, SAT and SAT II well in advance of
taking these tests, so that children understand the tools they need to support their test-taking abilities.
New models, such as those from
Casio, can help students explore mathrelated activities and exercises easily
due to their broader range of functions and faster processing speeds.
The PRIZM’s icon-based menu makes
usability more intuitive than previous
calculator models and USB connectivity helps students take their lessons
from calculator to computer. More information can be found a CasioEducation.com.
Healthy Study Habits
As a parent, you can help ensure
your student maintains habits that foster better learning.
When it comes to homework and
studying, discourage procrastination.
Regularly check in with your child’s
progress and ask about upcoming
tests. If math is one of your child’s
more difficult subjects, suggest he or
she start with math homework first
and save favorite subjects for later in
the evening.
Make sure students get plenty of
sleep. Classroom material is best absorbed when students are alert.
While math scores nationwide are
falling, the right tools and study habits
can help your student buck the trend.

More Critics Against Pop-Up Beach Party
By Jon Cronin
Staff Writer
The proposed pop-up beach party/
beer tasting room on Woodward Avenue in Ridgewood received more
community criticism at Community
Board 5’s last meeting.
Marcus Burnett, owner of the Rockaway Brewing Company, gave a short
presentation to Community Board
5 about his proposed pop-up beach
party La Playa at 176 Woodward Ave
in Ridgewood. Burnett, who is also a
cinematographer for National Geographic, owns the brewing company
in partnership with Ethan Long. The
duo started as avid home brewers and
then began their venture in Long Island City in 2012, where they currently have a staff of 12.
He noted that when the state passed
legislature that allowed brewies to operate five additional “farm sites” their tap
in LIC became more like a tasting facility where they have ten beers on tap.
In Burnett’s presentation, he
showed photos of customers. “I want
you to notice in these picture the style
of people who come to get educated
about local beer they’re not bar flies,”
he said.
He explained that they plan to open
an approximately 950 square foot
structure, with a maximum capacity
of 75 people and will have music only
indoors. He noted that there will be
no DJ or live music at the location.
It was it pointed out that Burnett
displayed several supportive letters to
the community from Sunnyside and
Long Island City, but no letters from

local residents.
Burnett noted the site is properly
licensed and that the State Liquor Authority considers the location to be a
proper location for their business.
The SLA will have to approve their
farm brewing license, which allows
them to up to five locations outside of
their home location. They have yet to
make the site a remote location.
Vinnie Arcuri, CB 5 chairman, said
there is currently a stop work order at
the site and Burnett pointed out that is
because of the height of the fence and
the stability of the fence.
Burnett claimed the only engagement he had with someone with a
negative opinion of the site was with
neighbor Jon Armstrong. He said they
had a long conversation and was “very
reasonable.” He said Armstrong was
concerned about the noise because he
works at home and would like them to
close by 8 p.m. He said other than that,
whenever he is at the site on Woodward Avenue, “I haven’t had one person stop by opposing it,” and said he
had several visitors excited about the
upcoming tasting room. He added that
once it is open, “It is our responsibility
that [guests] don’t over indulge.”
Armstrong spoke at the CB 5 meeting, and explained that when he first
heard of La Playa, he said, “’Oh cool
idea. Wait a second. Where is there
supposed to be?’ And then my head
exploded. I’ve been against this idea
from that point on.”
He later garnered, an 25 signatures
to petition against its opening, “I had
people tracking me to sign.”
Armstrong added, “I do wish you
good. It’s maybe even a good a idea. It
may not be for our neighborhood.”
Shirley, a Ridgewood resident and
neighbor to the location said, “I support that your product is made in the
U.S.A…but this is one product that I
do not support and the community
doesn’t support as well.” She told him
he was happy that his small business is
growing, but does not feel that he has
chosen an appropriate location. Regarding how the top of his 950 square
foot structure will have sand, she said,
“We have a lot of stray cats, I do not
know how you will prevent that from
becoming a litter box.”
She added, “We ask that you respect the wishes of the residents and
find a different location. I’m confident
that you will find another community
that will welcome you,” and noted that
noted that in the 90 minutes before
the May community board meeting
they garnered an additional 25 signatures to Armstrong’s petition to stop
the opening of the location.
Jean Tanler, director of Industrial
Business Development Maspeth Industrial Business Association of the
Queens Business Outreach Center,
was the sole supporter of the pop-up
beach party location. She noted that
they make their beer from locally
grown products, aid in community job
growth and are accessible from public transportation. She noted that the
owners are “reasonable people, more
than willing to meet with the community and work any issues out.”

The initiatives launched, as announced by MOME, were: 50 for 50,
where MOME will present 50 free

This will provide an inside look at New
York’s entertainment industry and all of
the events will be open to the public.
Access Broadway is another initiative with over 1,000 free tickets to
Broadway shows for New York City
Housing Authority residents throughout the year.
MOME Movie Matinees is one of
the initiatives, where a wide-ranging
partnership will provide low-income
families throughout NYC with over
1,000 feature films free of charge in
theaters during the month of August.
The next initiative is Broadway in
the Boroughs, which is an effort to
bring Broadway to new audiences and
MOME will stage free performances in
each borough during the summer.
The last two initiatives are the “50
Years of Magic” mobile app and the
Industry Retrospective – 50 Years of TV
and Film in NYC. The free mobile app
will provide up-to-date details on all of
the anniversary events throughout the
year. There will also be an interactive
map featuring highlights from NYC’s
expansive film and TV history. The
Industry Retrospective is a new report
that highlights achievements of the
City’s film and TV sectors, as well as
their contributions to the economy.
“Growing up in New York City, I was
inspired by the energy and creativity of
the people and places all around me.
Attending public schools provided me
a phenomenal foundation for my career
in music and gave me an understanding
of the diversity there is in the world. I’m
excited to be an ambassador for MOME
this year and support them as they give
back to the City’s diverse communities
by presenting free events in the outer
boroughs in the coming months. This
is a great time to be a part of New York’s
rich and multi-cultural entertainment
industry, and I’m glad to share this
moment with New Yorkers from all
backgrounds,” said Keys.
“What’s amazing about this industry
– first of all, it’s something that defines
us, we’re so proud of it as New Yorkers,
it – it connects perfectly to our artistry,
our cultural values as a city, the creativity that’s so natural in this place. It
creates the – it connects beautifully to
who we are as the ultimate multicultural
city. Because one thing you hear from
a lot of folks, including in that small
backwater place called Hollywood, is
the stories – the richness of the stories
– from all over the world that are here
in New York are just unsurpassed. So,
part of our identity, part of who we
are, part of our economy, part of what
makes a good life possible for so many
New Yorkers and their families,” said de
Blasio. “We’re proud that this industry
is so strong but there’s a lot more to do.
And we have worked to reach a lot of
the new opportunities that exist as well.
So MOME, the Mayor’s Office of Media
and Entertainment, now focuses as well
on advertising, on music, and on digital
content – and the sky is the limit in all
those areas.”

were our tools. We put on our smocks
and went to work. First, we had to move
the blue paint into another hole in our

found myself focusing on the strokes

Park Lane South To Be Paved Soon
The repaving of Park Lane South
between Union Turnpike and Metropolitan Avenue, which was milled
about a month ago, is projected to be
completed by early July.
According to a source, the City Department of Transportation has been
coordinating with various stakeholders and accommodating water repairs
and local religious observations. The
QueensMillingandPavingSchedule,
however, states that work will be done
on Friday, June 17.
Park Lane South is one of the few
roads that have been worked on in
Kew Gardens that still hasn’t been
repaved. The rough road surface has
caused traffic issues along the busy
thoroughfare during the morning
rush hour.
Last Spring, a portion of Park Lane
South between Metropolitan Avenue
and 115th Street was torn up to replace sewer mains. The project lasted
several months and caused several
traffic problems during the morning
and afternoon rush hour.

POP AND PUNK: RAMONES
AND VISUAL ART
Join curator Mark Miller for a conversation
about the Ramones. In the tenements,
lofts, and nightclubs of 1970s New York,
punk musicians mingled with visual artists
who were just as eager for something
new. Taking cues from Andy Warhol’s
work with the Velvet Underground, and
from the psychedelic rock posters and
underground comics of Haight-Ashbury,
these artists allied themselves with the
CBGB bands. Punk would be as much a
visual movement as a musical one.
From 1 to 2:30 p.m. there will be a discusssion on Punk Magazine: The Original
Fanzine with Punk co-founder and cartoonist John Holmstrom, photographer
Roberta Bayley, and contributing editor Chris Stein. From 3 to 4:30 p.m. the
discussion will be about The Legacy of Arturo Vega, Art Director of the Ramones
with artist Ted Riederer and arts writer Sandra Schulman. The Queens Museum is
located in Flushing Meadows Corona Park.

Commodores Come Out On Top As PSAL Champs
By DaviD Russell
The Bayside Commodores won
their first baseball title with a 3-2 victory over Eleanor Roosevelt in the
PSAL title game at Yankee Stadium on
Monday.
“At the beginning of the season
that’s what we were shooting for,” said
head coach Pat Torney. “I knew we had
a talented bunch, it’s just a question of
learning how to win and I think we
proved we can do it.”
It’s a much better ending to the
season than the blowout loss in the
first round of the 2015 playoffs. “Last
year was just terrible,” said Dimitri Papazoglou, the winning pitcher
in Monday’s game. “We screwed up
mentally, but this year we came mentally ready, physically ready, everything.”

SJU Track Stars Take
Final Lap In Oregon
By DaviD Russell
Two track and field stars ended
their St. John’s careers in the NCAA
championships in Oregon last week.
Claire Mooney and Stephanie Van
Pelt were two of the best athletes that
head coach Jim Hurt had in his 27
years at St. John’s.
“They rank right up at the top and
we’ve had a lot of kids over the years,
so they’re pretty special,” Hurt said.
Mooney competed in the 800-meter race and Van Pelt was in the 1,500meter run. Hayward Field, where the
race was held at the University of Oregon, is the “Mecca of track and field,”
Hurt said.
Competing in Oregon was a thrill
for Van Pelt. “I never thought I would
make it four years ago and end my career there,” Van Pelt said.
The two athletes fell short of qualifying for the finals but they did almost
everything else at St. John’s. Mooney
holds the indoor school-records in the
400- and 500- meter dashes, and out-
door school-record in the 800-meter
dash. She also won the gold medal in
the 500-meter dash at the 2016 Big East
Indoor Championships. Mooney came
to New York from County Kildare in
Ireland and liked the atmosphere at St.
John’s. “The school isn’t too big so it
feels easier to make friends,” Mooney
said. “They’ll help you with anything
you need help with.”
One friend is Van Pelt, who is a
roommate as well as a teammate. Van
Pelt holds the outdoor 1,500-meter
school record and the indoor 800meter school-record. While they talk
about more than just athletics, (both
name “The Notebook” as their favorite
movie according to the school website) conversations often turn to the
sport. “It’s good to have someone else
who has an interest in track and field,”
Mooney said.
The goal of college athletes is to
compete at nationals, and the duo was
able to say they did it. “You always
dream big,” Mooney said. “It’s nice
when it comes true.”
Bayside actually
played better later
in the playoffs than
they did in the opening rounds, partially
because the postseason jitters cleared
up. “When we finally
won the first couple
of rounds and got
into the semifinals
they realized they
could do something
that no other baseball team in Bayside
has ever done,” Torney said.
With
Bayside leading 3-1 in
the fifth, Eleanor
Roosevelt loaded the
bases with two outs. Bayside Pitcher Dimitri Papazoglou got the

but Anthony Costa preserved the lead head,” said shortstop Daniel Alfonzo.
with a one-hop throw to home plate to “I was like, ‘Oh, we’re going to win
this, we’re going to win this.’ By the

In the seventh, Eleanor Roosevelt time the ball came to me I knew I had

pitcher who turned and threw to sec- a great season. “It feels awesome winond for the double play. Then came ning a championship,” Alfonzo said.

“So many emotions that come into my look where it got us.”
