October 8, 2015 3 Canarsie Courier Cars Crash While “Charging” Along Busy Corridor By Linda Steinmuller Lately, there’s always an accident waiting to happen in the area around Gateway Center mall. On Monday around 3 p.m., a Nissan Pathfinder was traveling southbound on Schenck Avenue when a Dodge Charger, which was traveling northbound on the same avenue, collided at the intersection on Flatlands Avenue. According to an eyewitness, the driver of the Charger was making a lefthand turn when it slammed into the Pathfinder. The Charger’s airbags deployed and the driver was taken by ambulance to an area hospital. Young women traveling around the community in the middle of the night are being warned that the Canarsie rapist is still on the loose – and police believe he’s preyed on a few more victims over the past month. Most recently, police reported that the attacker attempted to rape a 29-year-old woman near East 98th Street and Conklin Avenue on Monday, September 7th at around 2 a.m. The victim told authorities that a man approached her as she was walking, grabbed her by the arm and told her he had a gun. He then forced her into a nearby parking lot where he tried to rape her – but she resisted. Reports stated that the ruthless thug, whose face was hidden by a bandana bearing Grenada’s flag, fled on his bike in an unknown direction. This is the second attack on record. The first one took place on Sunday, August 30th – just after midnight – on Rockaway Parkway between Avenues M and N. In this incident, a 19year-old woman, who was walking southbound on Rockaway Parkway, was approached by a man wearing blue and white Hawaiian shorts and a white tank top. His face was covered by a t-shirt. He pulled the woman into an alleyway, threatened her with a firearm, and raped her. He fled northbound on Rockaway Parkway. Police said the punk, who’s about 19 - 24 years old, is described as a black male with a medium complexion, 5’6” tall, about 135 pounds. Surveillance footage of the man running from businesses and homes near the attacks were released to the media. The 69th Precinct has also been distributing flyers to the community and taping wanted posters everywhere possible – announcing the $2,500 reward for any information leading to an arrest in the case. Residents who may have information on these attacks – or the suspect – is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS. The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers Website at www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or texting their tips to 274637(CRIMES) then enter TIP577. All calls will be kept confidential. Image of attacker in Canarsie. East Flatbush Blaze Injures One A three-month-old was reportedly hurt and taken to an area hospital after a fire broke out at 4714 Church Avenue yesterday at around 3:30 p.m. The inferno gutted the second floor of the three-story attached commercial building. No other apartments or businesses in the area were impacted by the fire. It took about a half hour for the 60 responding firefighters to get the blaze under control. The incident remains under investigation as of press time and officials could not say whether the fire appeared to be suspicious.

The college’s basketball coach Lambert Shell and Archibald ran players through the drills both men used to formerly run on their respective teams, while also enlightening the aspiring athletes. While much of Archibald’s basketball career was spent on the court, the NBA Hall of Fame member has also spent time helping to run community centers and homeless shelters. During his Kingsborough appearance, Archibald spoke to players on the importance of continued development beyond the game – specifically about pursuing their college degrees. Archibald holds several titles in the NBA, including being inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1991, and the NBA All-Star Game MVP in 1981. “Where’s Rosa?” Our Business Manager Catherine Rosa is hidden somewhere in this issue of the Canarsie Courier.

Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, frontman for hip-hop music pioneers Run-DMC, has been considered a poet, philosopher, mentor, music innovator, and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer. Last year he added comic book writer to his resume with his DMC comic series. Last week he made history again – and made an impact on students at Kingborough Community College. He was the first speaker for the English Department’s new annual Visiting Writers Series, where he promoted his comics. In the first issue, released during the 2014 installment of New York Comic Con, DMC is introduced as the main hero in addition to a few minor recurring characters. The issue featured two different covers for collectors to purchase. Many variations were later released as exclusive books for other conventions and events during the year. For the second issue, slated to be unveiled at this year’s NY Comic Con, the first heroine of the series will be introduced. A more supportive cast of characters will follow. When asked how he became interested in comics, McDaniels stated, “Marvel had superheroes in New York City. So, as a little kid who couldn’t go anywhere, I learned a lot about New York City from comic books. There were places Spiderman visited, like the Roosevelt Island Tram. I saw it the first time and thought ‘Oh my God! It does exist!’ So, I learned about many places around New York City from Spiderman. I would bring myself into the world of comic books.” Growing up in Hollis, Queens, McDaniels attended Catholic school and quickly became a target for public school kids who ridiculed him. The uniforms he wore made some kids think he was rich. They sometimes attacked him and stole his lunch money and sneakers. “It was miserable to be a kid back then going to Catholic school and living in Hollis. Being in school, everything was fine,” McDaniels said. “It was cool. I loved new books. I loved to read and write. I loved the first day of school. New lunch box and book bag. How many people love the feel of new books? That says something about you! I’m living in this world of comic books because the real life existence was traumatic. The comic books were so powerful! The comic books took you away from the reality of life.” McDaniels also credits comic books for helping him excel in other subjects such as history and writing. Captain America comics took him to World War II. They also took him to the front line of the Nazis and Red Skull and Hitler. When it was time to take the tests, he was extremely prepared to demonstrate what he knew. “In science I learned about the planets and stars – Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and asteroids - but Silver Surfer would take me up into the galaxy! Reading, writing and drawing in comic books helped with my education in school,” he told the students at Kingsborough. “The world of superheroes and the world of comic books made me feel powerful.” In high school, McDaniels began to see the world of hip-hop entering Hollis with MCs rapping in groups around the neighborhood. He saw breakdancers performing and felt like superheroes had come to life with the way they were able to move. It was the late 1970s when he became intrigued by hiphop artists Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. His fascination with their music led McDaniels to sell his collection of comics for two turntables and a mixer. As Grandmaster Get High, McDaniels honed his DJ mixing skills alongside longtime friend Joseph “Run” Simmons. As the two continued to perform around Queens, Jam-Master Jay, known at the time as the best DJ in Hollis, joined them and McDaniels was encouraged to try his hand at rapping instead of DJing. McDaniels changed his name to DMC (Devastating Mic Controller) and the three formed Run-DMC. Since their formation, Run-DMC has gone from a neighborhood act to being considered pioneers of the hip-hop and rap worlds. They have worked with a slew of other top artists such as Slick Rick, Beastie Boys, and Eminem and sold over 15 million albums worldwide. In October 2002, Run-DMC lost Jam-Master Jay when he was shot inside his recording studio. His death prompted the group to disband. Since the breakup, Simmons has gone on to become Reverend Run with his own reality show about his family and McDaniels continues to tour with other artists to perform Run-DMC hits. In 2009, Run-DMC became the second hip-hop act in history (Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five was the first) to be inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Simmons and McDaniels have also helped to create the J.A.M. Awards (Justice, Arts, and Music) in honor of Jay. Throughout his music career, McDaniels has maintained his love of comics and remembers fondly all the titles he’s read and learned from over the years. Now, with the knowledge and passion for comics still in him, McDaniels decided to revisit his childhood and create his own series based on his life growing up in Hollis. “I wanted to make a comic that is for everyone: all races, creeds, ages, genders, everyone,” he told students. “They will deal with social, political and many other subjects that the media doesn’t usually want to show. And they will have more characters introduced, more heroes and villains, because we don’t want people to get tired of seeing just my boring a**.” Many students were given a chance to ask the rap mogul questions. One in particular brought out McDaniels’ poetic side. Katrina Lee, a freshman in the Theater Arts Department and aspiring dancer, asked how to bring out messages – such as gender equality and respect for women – in her music. “You need to find your voice,” McDaniels said with hesitation. “Perhaps not your voice. You need to find your vibration. Find a unique way to say what your message is and bring it to the masses. Think of Pink, the artist Pink. She found a way to bring out her words in a new way, a way no one had done yet, and became successful from it. She did it smartly though. She put out what the music industry wanted her to first. The type of music they wanted. When she was much higher in the industry, she said ‘I have these ideas and I will do them my way’ and they had to let her. Do that – be patient and do what the industry wants if you need to, then bring out that vibration. Then the world will hear it.” In addition to McDaniels’ appearance at NY Comic Con and his continued comic production, he faithfully travels the world with Run-DMC when asked by other artists to be part of their tours. They’re also working on future albums.

Hizzoner And Schools Chancellor Visit Canarsie On Wednesday, September 30th, Brooklyn Generation High School (BGHS) principal Lydia Colón Bomani welcomed Mayor Bill de Blasio, Schools Chancellor Carmen Fariña and local elected officials to her school. The visit was to highlight the improvements made by the school, discuss the services offered by community schools such as BGHS and to solicit feedback from officials, parents and students. Prior to the start of the meeting, Mayor de Blasio had group activity sessions with parents, community members, and school faculty. Elected officials in attendance included Assemblywoman Roxanne J. Persaud and Councilman Alan Maisel who along with Mayor de Blasio, and Chancellor Fariña addressed the audi- ence before allowing questions. Both the Assemblywoman and Councilman congratulated the parents for their involvement. They also encouraged the principal and staff to keep up the work that they have been doing to make the school successful. Topics of discussion ranged from test prep, student attendance and community partnership. BGHS has seen its student attendance increase to 91 percent with one student’s attendance increasing from 16 to 100 percent. The school has also received a “B” on the latest Progress Report. BGHS is located in the South Shore High School campus at 6565 Flatlands Avenue.

Telling It Like It Is By Dara Mormile alling just about all of the schools in the districts where the circulates is a tough job. Waiting to find out who to speak to, leaving them a message and then waiting for a call back - that we never get - is frustrating. This month it was particularly frustrating. October is National Anti-Bullying Awareness Month. There are variations of this title, but each school, I believe, has its own initiative aimed at creating a better learning environment for their students. What’s really going to work??? As of last week, only ONE school has gotten back to us about anti-bullying efforts and programs. P.S. 276 on East 83rd Street invited me to capture their annual “Stomp Out Bullying” event, during which children gathered in the auditorium and took an oath, announced by Principal Yasmine Fidelia, that they would not engage in or promote behavior that interferes with their learning – and that they would report bullying to their elders and accept their peers’ differences. Students made the promise and then took to the front of the school where they placed blue ribbons on a “Stomp Out Bullying” banner that was attached to a gate. C A promise is a promise...Sounds easy enough, right? At the core of things, I’ve always wondered where children initially learn that it’s okay to torment and mock someone? Should we blame the adults for teaching them hatred? Where and when does a child even establish the idea that someone who is different than them deserves to be bullied? Boys poked fun at me when I was younger - they pulled my hair and stuck gum under my seat. No big deal...Girls “bullied” me because I was quiet or because I didn’t want to give them an answer on a test. One girl in junior high ordered me to meet her outside after class in the Bildersee schoolyard. At 13, seeing a girl slam her closed fist into the palm of an opened hand was enough bullying for me! I played no part in the drama, but later found out that this “bully” wasn’t just targeting me, she had a beef with tons of other kids in the school too! Sorry to burst anyone’s motivational bubble, but – much like gun violence - we can never do enough to stop bullying because everyone’s reason for being a troublemaker is circumstantial. Some kids feel inadequate, so they mock someone else to feel better about themselves....Some kids have family problems that run so deep, all they can do is beat up on a kid in their class to resolve their inner-conflicts...Some kids grew up in families that never taught them how to get along with people who are different than them. Subsequently, if they come across someone who is of a different culture, who was born with a health or mental problem, or has some physical challenge, their first reaction might be to treat that person as a subordinate. Let’s get real! Adults are no better! As far as this country has come in terms of “acceptance,” there are still adults who are known to throw around racial slurs and homophobic vocabulary. If they do this in front of their children, or they don’t want their children spending time with those who are “different,” they internalize this and overhear our disapproval of those we “bully”- even during a passing conversation. The media doesn’t help either! Six-year-old Gage Berger, of Utah, had plastic surgery on his ears recently because he was born with what looked like “elf ears.” The youngster was bullied in school for a long time before his parents decided that butchering his head and pinning his ears down was something that would give him more confidence. Really? If he didn’t have any hearing problems, then what about as he grows older, is this child going to believe that anything can be fixed with a little nip/tuck? So, here we are in Anti-Bullying Awareness Month and we’re telling children – not even teens – that not getting teased is as easy as going under the knife so you can impress everyone in class! Instead of parents modifying their children, they should be meeting with the parents of those bullies and hashing out ways of punishing the bullies – NOT putting the victims on an operating table so they can be acceptable to their classmates. Of course, bullying goes beyond poking fun of Ridge Abstract Corp.

P.S. 277 The Gerritsen Beach School was recently recognized as a Blue Ribbon School for 2015. The Gerritsen Avenue school was one of seven New York City public schools that earned the prestigious designation and the only recipient in District 22. U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan announced the winners on September 29th. The selection process is based on a school’s overall academ-ic excellence or their progress in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups. P.S. 277, at 2529 Gerritsen Avenue, will be honored at a recognition ceremony that will take place on November 9th and 10th in Washington, DC. Two other District 22 schools that attained Blue Ribbon status were Sheepshead Bay’s P.S. 254 in 2014 and Marine Park’s P.S. 222 in 2013. The honor was awarded to 335 pub-lic and private schools nationally as part of the National Blue Ribbon Schools Program, which has bestowed the co-veted award on 8,000 of America’s schools over its 33-year history.

A guest speaker at the October meeting of the District 18 Community Education Council (CEC) said adults are to blame – and that her company, Truly Refined, can turn around students who don’t have the social tools they need to become successful. Angela Nichols, director of the professional etiquette company Truly Refined, spoke about a program they offer called Socially Fit Kidz. “Social skills are not really taught in school,” Nichols told the audience. “We believe it’s the parents’ fault that children don’t know etiquette and manners. If you talk down to your child, they learn from that.” Socially Fit Kidz helps students learn valuable skills including everyday etiquette, dining manners, effective communication skills, social emotional learning and proper dress etiquette. Nichols was adamant about the program’s influence on students. “The previous generation dropped the ball when it came to manners,” she said. “There are two generations that haven’t propelled our kids to the next level in life.” The representative also dropped the ball on the racial divide that exists in our community. “We studied how black parents talk to their children in comparison to how white parents speak to their kids – and there is a big difference with how emotionally and socially healthy those children are.” At one school, Nichols noted, a few of the girls who completed the program became mentees for a Fortune 500 company and are leading the path for a successful future. Truly Refined offers individual etiquette packages or cumulative packages, which provide student development in tandem with the NYS Common Core Learning Standards. While Nichols’ company coaches adults in top-notch businesses and their clients become more marketable, employing skills kids need now is essential. “Get them now while they’re young,” she said. For those interested in bringing the program to their school, it would subsequently be funded through the Department of Education (DOE). Dollarwise, Nichols did not disclose how much the program costs. CEC President James Dandridge said the financial components of the program “are not to be discussed” at the meeting. Ironically, there was no shortage of talks about dollars and cents when it came to discussing the Contract for Excellence (C4E) budget. DOE representative Kamal Salfarlie gave an overview of how C4E funds have been spent. According to the paperwork distributed at the meeting, funds were first received in the 2007-08 school year and “must now be distributed to certain schools in specific program areas. No new funding has been received in five years and was reduced in 2011-12.” The five-year plan for how to spend $531 million was presented in the usual PowerPoint method. Salfarlie spoke about the $183 million in “unrestricted funds” and the $348 million of “restricted funds.” District 18 Superintendent Beverly Wilkins questioned the method the DOE used to allocate its budget, identifying some C4E funding as “virtual money” or “make believe money” that’s not really being put into district schools. Others asked if all the schools receive equal funding when NYC’s preliminary C4E plan is mapped out. “Not every school will receive the same funds because not every program works in every school,” the DOE representative said. The C4E funds cover elementary and middle schools and include programs such as ELL, afterschool and training initiatives. Funds must also go to students with the greatest educational need, such as students in poverty, those with disabilities and students with low academic achievement or at risk of not graduating. Salfarlie said the deadline for public comment on the budget, which can be found on the DOE’s web site, is November 6th. Educators can e-mail the DOE at [email protected]. The public is encouraged to attend the next CEC 18 meeting, which will be held at 1106 East 95th Street on November 2nd at 7 p.m. Call 718-566-6037 for more information.

October 8, 2015 11 Canarsie Courier $ 49 99 12 Canarsie Courier October 8, 2015 The three-year anniversary of Superstorm Sandy is approaching, and life in Gerritsen Beach is nowhere near back to “normal” for many of its residents. The vicious storm tore through the community, flooding homes and businesses. Today, homes sit abandoned, homeowners are displaced and houses need to be elevated. On Monday, State Senator Marty Golden hosted a walking tour of the devastated area with Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan and community activists to discuss continued Sandy recovery efforts. Golden organized the tour to bring attention to the lack of progress in Gerritsen Beach. “We could sit at a desk and talk about it…or we can walk around the neighborhood. A picture is worth a thousands words,” Golden said. Community leaders gathered at Gerritsen Inlet, located at the end of Gerritsen Avenue, which recently flooded due to last weekend’s rain. Doreen Garson, Chief of the Gerritsen Beach Volunteer Fire Department, explained that Gerritsen Beach didn’t get any additional sand – as opposed to other coastal areas – after Sandy. She also pointed out a low-lying area of the Belt Parkway – just west of the Gerritsen Inlet Bridge, which is being raised as part of the Department of Transportation’s project to reconstruct seven bridges on ARMANDO’S KITCHEN RECEIVE 10% OFF YOUR NEXT DELIVERY ORDER w/coupon only.

When Sandy struck, the floodwaters rushed over the parkway into the inlet and flooded the streets. “We requested that the city extend the project and elevate the low-lying area, but that’s not part of their plan,” Garson said. The walking tour highlighted some of the abandoned homes – estimated between 90 and 100 – as well as homes needing reconstruction. An empty lot sits at 3078 Gerritsen Avenue – the former site of two homes, which were demolished about three months ago. “It’s difficult for these residents. They have to live elsewhere for six to eight months while their homes are being repaired – and they’re told they have to get out of their homes in three weeks. It’s hard – especially if you have kids,” Golden said. “Gerritsen Beach got it from all three sides – two canals and the Belt Parkway in between. Three years later, there’s no drilling, no construction. It’s so quiet here. It’s pretty sad. We need to get people moving back and staying here. We’ve seen so many abandoned homes,” Golden said. “We need to identify the bottlenecks and fix them,” he added. “There are still people displaced from their homes. They need a place to spend the winter. We need to find a way of getting the money moving, companies moving and getting help for Gerritsen Beach, Sheepshead Bay and Manhattan Beach.” October 8, 2015 13 Canarsie Courier Brooklyn Beep Has More Talks About Canarsie Pier Ferry Service By Dara Mormile Borough President Eric Adams recently called for a citywide ferry plan that would connect ferry landings with MTA buses and “integrate” fares. According to the scope of the plan, the introduction of a southern Brooklyn ferry route would provide reliable service to Bay Ridge, Sunset Park, Red Hook, Brooklyn Heights, Dumbo – and possibly Canarsie residents. “I also believe that the local route would have subsequent potential to add an additional stop in Sunset Park in proximity to the Bush Terminal complex, and that the Rockaway route could subsequently be modified after initial success to add service to the Canarsie Pier, the marina opposite Aviator Sports in Dead Horse Bay, Plumb Beach and Coney Island,” Adams stated. Adams wants the Department of Transportation to foster safer pedestrian connections to ferry landings, which would somehow integrate a ferry payment with the MTA’s current per-ride fair. The Beep’s office noted that this is the first time his proposal has been mentioned about ferry service being established at Canarsie Pier. There have not yet been any talks with National Parks Service about the project. However, back in 2012, Marty Markowitz – former borough president – sought to expand ferry service from the city to Canarsie despite the defunct dock slips that fell into disrepair in the late 1990s.

Register Robbed Of Hundreds In Sheepshead Bay Grainy images of two men who allegedly stole money from a store in the Sheepshead Bay area were recently released to the public. According to the NYPD, the robbery took place on Friday, September 25th just before 11:30 p.m. The duo broke into the Leah Discount Store at 3354 Nostrand Avenue by lifting the front security gate. After removing $600 in cash from the register, they fled the scene in an unknown direction.

For a moment, Vikings head coach Matt Ciquera thought the inclement weather could play a factor in a possible upset, especially with the absence of star quarterback Jason Martin, who was out with a slight leg injury. But South Shore got on track, scoring 16 unanswered points in the first period en route to a 36-2 drubbing of the Orange Wave (0-5) in City Conference action at Thomas Jefferson High School Field. “It was a question of the weather,” Ciquera said. “Like (if) the weather was going to be that ridiculous, that sometimes offense becomes impossible when the weather is that bad? But once we scored, it gave us confidence.” After two defensive scores, senior Deandre Campbell punched in a 12-yard rushing touchdown to extend the Vikings lead to 22-2 with 4:26 remaining in the second quarter. South Shore (5-0) cashed in on another fumble when junior Kavan Gordon pounced on the pigskin, and proceeded to rumble into the end zone for the score, increasing the advantage to 28-2 late in the first half. Refusing the let up, the Vikings recovered the muffed kickoff at the Orange Wave’s 30 to open the second half. They quickly went to work, cap- ping the drive and scoring on a three-yard TD run by junior Armand Robinson, followed by the successful two-point conversion for a 34-point lead early in the third period. Ciquera said his decision to sit Martin to back up Willerm Greffin was more precautionary than anything, and he would only play if the dire need arose. “Because of the wet turf, and we felt we had enough without him tonight, that we decided that it was in everybody’s best interest to come out in the first half, and see how things went,” he explained. “If everything was going well, and we had a lead going into the second half, we decided we were going to shelf him for the whole game. If it had been a battle in the second half, we probably would’ve let him play. But because he was nursing a minor injury, and we were winning, I felt it was best not to let him dress tonight.” South Shore’s stingy defense only allowed 12 yards of offense the entire game, and recovered four fumbles.

October 8, 2015 Canarsie Courier JV Football Chiefs Take Down JFK, 14-6, At Home By Jerry Del Priore Things didn’t begin well for the Junior Varsity Canarsie football team as John F. Kennedy marched down the field, capping its first drive with an eight-yard rushing touchdown for a 6-0 lead midway through the first quarter. But the Chiefs (4-1) regrouped, and didn’t allow a single point the rest of the way while picking up two scores of their own in a well-played 14-6 win over the Knights (0-3) Saturday at home. It was Canarsie’s fourth straight victory. Head Coach Robert Palmer believes his boys showed a measure of mettle with top running back Calvin Hutchison on the sidelines with bruised ribs. “That was a big win, because we were down a running back,” Palmer said. “But we just pulled through. That was a loss (without Hutchison), but the guys got behind each other, something they’ve doing all year.” Freshman Evens DeLouis found pay dirt on running touchdown to tie the game at six, with sophomore quarterback Johnny Watson running into the end zone for the successful two-point conversion and 8-6 advantage late in the first half. Canarsie’s defense came up big in the third period when freshman Chris Jean Philippe made a nice open field tackle, causing a fumble, which he quickly pounced on. After the Chiefs recovered another muff, they moved the football down the gridiron, with sophomore Eric Anderson punching the ball in for a rushing score, extending their lead to 14-6 late in the contest. Canarsie’s defense clamped down once again, with Watson recording a key sack at the Chiefs’ 45 yard line before the team put the contest to bed for good in the waning seconds. Palmer feels, while varsity is struggling, the structural change with both teams practicing together will build a positive future for the Chiefs’ football program. “We’re basing the whole philosophy around here that it’s a whole program,” he explained. “So, if these kids are executing our plays, our philosophy on offense and defense, and their doing it now, hopefully it’s going to keep growing, and moving forward.” JV Canarsie returns to action as it hosts Boys & Girls Sunday at 11 a.m. Canarsie receiver lines up on the outside.

Parishoners and residents came out for the church’s annual celebration of pets, the Blessing of the Animals. Over 40 pets were blessed by St. Bernard’s Deacon Frank D’Accordo during the event, which is held in celebration of St. Francis of Assisi for the care and love he expressed for animals. Furry friends of all shapes, colors and sizes scampered to the church alongside their owners. Last year’s Blessing of the Animals brought out one hamster and his owner, but there is no word on whether the pair showed up for the spiritual ceremony this year.

Hurricane Sandy flooded homes and streets all over Canarsie, and the high winds wreaked havoc on trees in Seaview Park. Sandy’s wrath knocked over this huge tree on East 96th Street, off of Seaview Avenue – just a few blocks from the park. Fortunately, no was injured when the tree toppled over. Today, you can see a small tree has been replanted in its place. 2012 ! sion s i m d A Free 2015 Compiled by Linda Steinmuller You’ r e Inv ited! Compiled by Ulrik Narcisse Question: “Yes.

I’ve lived here a long time, and I’ve seen an increase in the last few years. I use public transportation to get around, and it’s getting worse.

President Gardy Brazela spearheaded the first meeting of the calendar year at Temple Shaare Emeth on Farragut Road and East 78th Street where important information was distributed to residents in light of Fire Prevention Week and recent rape reports. Following two attacks that took place in the middle of the night, and believed to be carried out by the same suspect, police are still on the hunt for the Canarsie rapist. Sixtyninth Precinct Community Affairs police officers Donald Lewis and Eton White advised women to walk in well-lit areas, pretend to talk on the phone and walk in pairs, if they are able to do so. The FDNY’s Fire Safety Education Unit also provided residents with basic tips including placing combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in their basements, kitchen and bedroom levels, having an escape plan, refraining from going back into a burning home and shutting off heaters at night. Representatives also showed residents how to correctly use a fire extinguisher and where to place them in their homes. Some residents said cars are speeding on East 81st Street between Foster Avenue and Farragut Road – not too far from a children’s park. Residents fear that children’s lives are in danger and that a big accident is just waiting to happen. Many would like to see speed bumps installed so that cars slow down on that block. “They are going to hit a child one day,” said Daphney Etienne, who Continued on page 33 69th Precinct Community Affairs Officers Eton White and Donald Lewis provide safety tips for women traveling at night. NYPD Chirps About East New York Robbery A Cricket Mobile Store on Pennsylvania Avenue was robbed last month and police are asking for the public’s help in tracking down the thief who got away with thousands of dollars. Reports stated that on Monday, September 28th at about 5:30 p.m., a man entered the mobile shop at 943 Pennsylvania Avenue. He posed as a customer, looking around, but then approached an employee with what appeared to be a firearm inside a black plastic bag. He ordered the worker, along with some customers, to the back of the shop to a storage room. Somehow, the crook knew where the store’s money was located, as he took several envelopes containing $6,000 from the rear storage closet before fleeing from the store. No one was injured during the robbery – and police could not confirm whether the man was armed or if the object inside the black plastic bag simply looked like a gun. The suspect is described as a black male who was last seen wearing a black long-sleeved sweater, light blue jeans, a black hat and black and red sneakers. Surveillance footage of the robber from inside the Cricket Mobile Store was released to the public this week. Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577TIPS. The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers Website at www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or texting their tips to 274637(CRIMES) then enter TIP577. Police are still looking for a man who attacked someone in the East New York area over a month ago. Last week, the NYPD released an image of the suspect and hope residents in the area can identify him. Officials stated that on Sunday, August 23rd at about 4:50 in the morning, a man kicked in the glass door of a bodega at 114 Cozine Avenue near Pennsylvania Avenue. He barged into the store and allegedly punched a 21-year-old in the face. While it was unknown if the man in the bodega was a customer or employee – or if he was targeted during the attack – police said he refused medical attention and didn’t give a description of the assailant. There was nothing stolen from the store or the victim during the incident, police said. If you have any information on this incident, call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577TIPS.

Almost 1 in 4 preschoolers were treated with medication alone. Among children ages 6-17 with ADHD, fewer than 1 in 3 received both medication and behavioral therapy. “We do not know what the longterm effects of psychotropic medication are on the developing brains and bodies of little kids. What we do know is that behavioral therapy is safe and can have long-term positive impacts on how a child with ADHD functions at home, in school, and with friends,” said CDC Principal Deputy Director Ileana Arias, Ph.D. “Because behavioral therapy is the safest ADHD treatment for children under the age of 6, it should be used first, before ADHD medication for those children.” In 2011, AAP released ADHD treatment guidelines recommending behavioral therapy alone for treatment of preschoolers and combination therapy of medication and behavioral therapy for children with ADHD between the ages of 6-17. GA The first national study to look at behavioral therapy, medication, and dietary supplements to treat attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) among children ages 4-17 shows that less than one half of children with ADHD were receiving behavioral therapy in 2009-2010. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study, “Treatment of AttentionDeficit/Hyperactivity Disorder among Children with Special Health Care Needs,” published in The Journal of Pediatrics provides a snapshot into how ADHD was treated just before the release of the 2011 clinical guidelines for treatment of ADHD from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). According to the study, among children 4-17 years of age, about 4 in 10 children with ADHD were treated with medication alone, 1 in 10 received behavioral therapy alone, 3 in 10 were treated with both medication and behavioral therapy, and 1 in 10 received neither medication nor behavioral therapy. Overall, about 1 in 10 children took dietary supplements for ADHD. The data shows that 1 in 2 World's Most Prevalent Disease .

October 8, 2015 Canarsie Courier 25 Telling It Like It Is ... Continued from page 6 someone’s physical traits. I was bullied because I was quiet and didn’t follow the “rough” crowd. I was bullied because I looked smarter (being the operative word here, since I wasn’t in any advanced courses) than the kids in my class. Were they jealous? Were they simply disrespecting the fact that I didn’t want to be like them ...and did they even care? Programs in our schools can only help so much. By the time one class and grade of tormentors leave the building, another class is coming in. Teaching acceptance, tolerance and conflict-resolution is a great idea. But I’m thinking these kids need more than a mantra. If you’ve ever watched “Beyond Scared Straight,” - and if you haven’t, you should YouTube it – you’ll see the perfect example of how at-risk youths are put to the test by adults behind bars. Inmates say such horrible things to the teens who are placed in jail for a day, that eventually, their resolve is broken down. I propose the Department of Education (DOE) put money into a fully-functioning Anti-Bullying Boot Camp in every school or district where it’s sorely needed. No, we don’t want to lower anyone’s self-esteem, but let’s get a team of therapists for those troubled kids and put them in their place! Let’s sit these tormentors down in the cafeteria and smash food all over bookbags and poke fun at imperfections without them being allowed to say anything. We can follow this up with a rigorous course of brainwashing – providing them with lessons on how to perform the best in lives and focus on learning and growth instead of picking on someone innocent! If all of you educators out there think this is too brash, too harsh and too severe, then look at how bullying affects the victims. Some acts of torment leave a brutal emotional and psychological scar on kids and stay with them well into their adulthood. Some eventually turn to drugs, gangs or suicide because they’re tired of not being accepted. Alternatively, someone can bully the DOE into allocating money towards plastic surgeries and anything else that will ensure our children accept each other for who they truly are. It’s only for one month – after that, we can stop harassing our educators... Legal Notice NUTROGROUP LLC. Arts. of Org. filed with SSNY on 07/10/15. Off. Loc.: Kings Co.

Each Saturday at the 8:10 A.M Mass we will celebrate the sacrament of Anointing of the Sick. Let’s have a deeper understanding of this healing sacrament. It is not Last Rites, at the moment of death. As Jesus ministered to the sick, so does the Church. It is for anyone who is seriously sick.

Zion Church of God 7th Day will celebrate the 6th Annual Unity Gospel Fest, on Sunday, October 11th from 4 - 7 p.m. at Kingsbrook Medical Center, 585 Schenectady Avenue between Winthrop Street and Rutland Road. This unique event was designed to celebrate the connection between physical and spiritual wellness through the unification of gospel music. The event will be held in Kingsbrook’s Lillian Minkin Ballroom and is free to the Central Brooklyn community. The day will feature the healing sounds of gospel along with health and wellness information for Kingsbrook medical professionals. Pastor Gilford Monrose of Mt. Zion Church of God 7th Day is a key coordinator of this day of praise and worship and is committed to growing this event annually via partners and sponsors. “This event has been such a blessing to our community that is very spiritually committed and connected. It is such a powerful showcase of spiritual talent and camaraderie,” he said. The day features a variety of choirs and gospel artists, and is an impressive reflection of spirituality in this vibrant community. Guests are greeted by Kingsbrook health care professionals who will provide screenings, medical services and educational information, followed by an incredible display of musical praise and worship. “Beyond great gospel music, the Unity Gospel Fest represents the efforts of a partnership advancing community wellness and community spirit. This partnership shows outstanding things are possible when institutions and artists committed to service join together,” said Senator Jesse Hamilton of Brooklyn, “It will be my pleasure to join performers, neighbors, and friends of the community in praise and fellowship on October 11th. Thanks to all the partners making this event possible, and a special thanks to Pastor Gilford Monrose of Mt. Zion Church of God for his commitment to making this broad-based, community partnership such a success.” “The Unity Gospel Fest is a one-of-a-kind expe- rience bringing together hospital staff, patients, religious leaders, and gospel artists in a holistic approach to create a healthy One Brooklyn,” Borough President Eric Adams said, “I am asking Brooklynites to join me on Sunday, October 11th for a worthwhile evening to celebrate both spiritual and physical wellness." Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center, celebrating its 90th year, is an 864-bed teaching Medical Center, dedicated to meeting the health needs of one of Brooklyn’s most culturally diverse communities. Kingsbrook continues to implement programs and services that respond to the vital health needs and concerns of the community at large. Mt. Zion is one of Brooklyn’s oldest and more reknown churches. It is the founder of Brooklyn Center for Quality of Life. This faith-based organization, established in 2008, is a community outreach entity committed to the purpose of serving and developing the largely low-income residents of its Brooklyn community.

Parishioners and dignitaries recently welcomed a new pastor to Our Lady of Miracles Church. Bishop James Massa conducted the installation of Pastor Jean Delva on Saturday at the East 86th Street house of worship. Youths from the church also joined the celebration and a beautiful show was put on for the incoming pastor who once served the church at Saint Therese of Lisieux Roman Catholic Church in East Flatbush. Councilman Alan Maisel and Assemblywoman Roxanne Persaud presented awards to Pastor Delva, who is proud to make Our Lady Of Miracles his new home. Photos courtesy of Assemblywoman Roxanne Persaud By Ulrik Narcisse Hurricane Joaquin may have been well down south in the Atlantic Ocean over the weekend, but the waters of Jamaica Bay were no safe place for five men who took an excursion on their leisure boat Friday night. Choppy waters led to the death of two boaters who were thrown overboard near Floyd Bennett Field. The NYPD and FDNY’s harbor units responded to the chaotic scene on the waters at around 8 p.m., when fierce rain, wind and choppy waters sent 50-year-old Joel Ortiz and 42-year-old Mejia Ricardo overboard. Officials report that, following the incident, one of the boaters approached an NYPD sergeant at a guard post in Floyd Bennett Field. He told the sergeant that he was one of five men that were out on the waters fishing when the boat capsized. NYPD Air Sea and Rescue and FDNY quickly mobilized to search for his friends. Two of the individuals were pulled from the water by firefighters. Aviation Unit Officers stationed at Floyd Bennett Field also conducted a foot canvass of the area, finding another man along the shoreline. Another one of the men managed to reach the shore by himself. Paramedics took the three surviving men to Coney Island Hospital where they were listed in stable condition. Ricardo and Ortiz were taken to Beth Israel Hospital, where they were pronounced dead. According to reports, the two fishermen who passed away were Brooklyn building superintendents. In an interview with PIX11 news, Ortiz’ family told the media that the men were aware of the bad weather, but that their love of fishing didn’t stop them from heading out on the water that night. “They always loved to fish, that was what they loved doing best,” Ortiz’s daughter, Angela Cruz told the press.

TIMOTHY 347-455-2078 PSAL Week 5 Area Football Round-Up By Jerry Del Priore It was another week of nail-biting PSAL football action, as two games were decided by narrow margins, one of which came down to overtime. John F. Kennedy – 26, Canarsie – 18 (City Conference) Canarsie (1-4) dominated for most of the tilt, but shot themselves in the foot when it mattered most, allowing the Knights to escape with an overtime win in the Bronx on a rainy Friday night. Leading 12-6 late in the fourth quarter, JFK (1-4) scored a touchdown, and another in OT to secure the victory. Knights junior running back Poucho Franklyn scampered for 104 yards and two TDs. Next Game: Chiefs host Boys & Girls Saturday at noon. James Madison – 46, Sheepshead Bay – 22 (Bowl Conference) The Golden Knights (4-1) amassed a whopping 641 yards of offense, 545 on the ground, against Sheepshead Bay (2-3) Sunday at home. The three-headed monster running attack of seniors Naahman Gumbs (175, 1 TD) and Keenan Sylvester (170, 2 TDs) totaled 345 yards while sophomore quarterback Shamar Logan added 170 with two scores in the lopsided victory. In addition, Logan completed four of five attempts for 96 yards and a touchdown. Gumbs added a scoring reception to his impressive day against the Sharks while senior Daniel Jefferson had one of his own. Senior Jamal Charles led Madison’s defense with eight tackles while Jefferson and senior Darius Word made seven stops apiece. Next Game: Madison travels to George Washington Saturday at 11:00 a.m. Grady – 21, Tilden – 20 (Bowl Conference) Grady senior signal caller Maxene Jeudy took matters into his own hands, throwing for 166 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for 162 and a score in the narrow Falcon (3-2) win over the Blue Devils (3-2). Tilden junior quarterback Jordan Woodard tossed a TD pass and senior Kyle Sutton and junior Avery McAlpin-Wilson ran for a score each. Sophomore Basil Watson made seven tackles and Woodward, senior Juan Garcia and junior Tahj Chong-Thomas all recovered a fumble.

Unsightly weeds attract litterbugs who dump their garbage there, and garbage attracts unwanted vermin. Besides, it makes our otherwise pleasant looking community an eyesore. There’s a row of weeds on Avenue J, near East 88th Street on the northeast side, making it difficult for pedestrians to walk down the block. The weeds are so high on the northeast corner of Church Lane and East 89th Street that you can’t even see the house behind them. With Halloween around the corner, this site looks like a good site for a scary movie…appropriately, the cemetery is right across the lane. Is there a lot or street piled up with trash or other bulky debris? Call the Canarsie Courier at 718-257-0600 and, in an effort to resolve the problem and bring it to the public’s attention, we might feature the unsightly mess in our next issue! By Linda Steinmuller FUBA... Continued from page 17 lives near the park. Other concerns within the community include a dangerous pothole on East 86th Street, littering on Farragut Road and rat infestation on East 81st Street and Flatlands Avenue. Brazela stressed the importance of contacting Community Board 18 for concerns and complaints. Brazela, who is also president of the 69th Precinct Community Council, was not pleased with the attendance at the FUBA meeting and said that the volume of people present did not mirror the number of flyers distributed to the community. “Showing up is crucial to whether or not FUBA will be heard and taken seriously,” Brazela said. “The only way to get better service in our community is to speak and come out.” With the holiday season not too far away, Brazela announced that FUBA and the 69th Precinct will partner with the Christian Church Of Canarsie on East 89th Street and Farragut Road to feed over 500 residents for Thanksgiving. Both civic organizations are seeking volunteers. FUBA meets the first Thursday of the month at 6012 Farragut Road.
