There’s no better way to end the school year than
with a fun and competitive day. Students at P.S. 115
headed to Seaview Park last Friday morning to participate in the school’s annual track and field day.
With games like tug-of-war, relay races, golf and
hula hoop, students honed their strength, coordination skills and learned how to work with each other.
Physical education teacher and coordinator Jackie
Zammit guided children through the exercises and
classmates cheered each other on.

Possible Stabbing Near 69th Precinct

With stabbings on the rise, a local
incident sent police on a manhunt for a
possible knife-wielding suspect.
Police responded to a report of an
emotionally disturbed person just
before 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday at
Bhrags Home Care at 9805 Foster
Avenue. Ironically, the incident took
place practically across the street from
the 69th Precinct, located at 9720
Foster Avenue.
At the scene, a man who appeared
to be bleeding from his face, was treated by medics and transported to a local
area hospital. Officers were questioning employees of the home care business and were looking at surveillance
footage from security cameras.
As of press time, the alleged suspect
was described as a black male in his
30s, about 5’9”wearing a bloody white
t-shirt. The suspect may have fled on
foot towards East 99th Street and
police searched the L-train station on
Rockaway Parkway.
Anyone with information in regards
to any of these shootings 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.CO

Cadillac Crash On Church Injures Child
Not long after school let out for
the day, busy Church Avenue
was the scene of a pedestrian
accident. The victim was a
young boy - no more than 10
years old – and the vehicle that
struck him was a large black
Cadillac Escalade, bearing the
TLC (Taxi and Limousine
Commission) logo on its license
plate. Eyewitnesses reported
that the boy was crossing
Church Avenue at the intersec-
tion of East 92nd Street around
3 p.m. on Monday when he was
sideswiped by the Escalade,
which was traveling westbound.
The young child was treated by
paramedics at the scene and
then taken to a nearby hospital
for
further
treatment.
It
appeared the boy was not badly
injured – he seemed more
stunned and confused than anything else.

Former Community Affairs Officer Returns As Deputy Commissioner

Many have read stories or seen movies of a small
town boy growing up, leaving his community and
realizing his potential to have a bigger impact on the
world. President of the Thomas Jefferson
Democratic Club Henry Bolus and former president
of the 69th Precinct Community Council welcomed
recently appointed NYPD Deputy Commissioner of
Training Benjamin Tucker to the meeting on
Tuesday night at the Hebrew Educational Society.
“I met this man in 1978,” stated Bolus. “At that
time he was Police Officer Benjamin Tucker. He was
a Community Affairs officer in the 69th Precinct.
Today, Mr. Benjamin Tucker is the lead
Commissioner of Training for the NYPD. I give you,
our homegrown, Deputy Police Commissioner
Benjamin Tucker!”
“I started my career, in effect, here in the 69th
Precinct,” stated Tucker. “I had one earlier command
at the 81st before I came here. I started out as a
trainee in Canarsie at 19 years old. Trainee was a
rank in those days that doesn’t exist anymore. It was
a rank for everyone who took the exam and started
training before the age of 21. You needed to be 21 to
carry firearms.”
Tucker joined the 69th Precinct when the crime
rate was on the rise and kids were getting into trouble. South Shore High School had opened and there
was a need to bridge the gap between officers and the
Board of Education.
“I became the liaison between the command, the
borough command and the schools. It was not just
South Shore but all of the schools. The goal was to
try and calm things down. There was pretty sad history but we made some progress during those times,”
he said.
Tucker returned to the Police Academy in 1972
because he had turned 21 but later came back to the
precinct as an anti-crime officer. He sustained that

role until 1979 when he left to teach at the Police
Academy.
Since his tenure at the academy, Tucker has
worked as a professor of criminal justice at Pace
University and as Director of Field Operations and
Senior Research Associate with Colombia
University. Within U.S. and New York government,
he served as Chief Executive for School Safety and
Planning at the New York City Department of
Education; Deputy Director for Operations at the
U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community
Oriented Policing Services; Chief of Operations in
Office of The Manhattan Borough President;
Executive Director of the New York City
Commission on Human Rights; Deputy Assistant
Director for Law Enforcement Services in the Office
of the Mayor of New York City; and Assistant
Director of The New York City Civilian Complaint
Review Board. (List provided by WhiteHouse.gov).
His latest position of Deputy Commissioner of
Training for the NYPD comes after serving as
Deputy Director of State, Local, and Tribal
Affairs under President Barack Obama from 2010 to
2013.
“I saw the election of the mayor and have been
impressed with his appointments so far. I worked
with Commissioner Bill Bratton and some of the
new deputy commissioners. Then I got a call saying
‘The boss would like to speak to you about returning
to your job.’ I met with Commissioner Bratton and,
after asking why I’d want the position and giving
him a litany of answers, he offered me the position as
Deputy Commissioner of Training.”
Under this new title, Tucker will oversee the training of over 800 officers graduating on Monday as
well as future classes. His initiatives include reincorporating field training, which has been a missing
piece of the overall experience of officers in recent
years. The academy will utilize various areas of the
city to have the officers simulate real life situations
with senior officers as mentors throughout the
process.
Monday’s graduating class will also be the first to
train in a brand new academy facility located on 30
acres in College Point, Queens. The facility will be

Mother Marches For Residents At Homeless Shelter Say
Their Grievances Are Ignored
Daughter’s Justice
By Sam Akhtar
The mother of a slain teenager is
hoping to bring her daughter’s killer
to justice and highlight the need for
mental health services.
On Friday, June 20th, Rochelle Copeland joined residents, politicians and
activists on a march from 845 Schenck
Avenue - the site of the brutal murder
of 6-year-old Prince Joshua “P.J.” Avitto
and the stabbing of 7-year-old
Mikayla Capers.
Copeland lost her daughter, Tanaya
Grant-Copeland, 18, to a brutal stabbing on May 30th as she was walking
home from band practice on Linwood
Street and Stanley Avenue. Reports
indicated the teenager was stabbed
over 30 times. Marchers were led by the
Royal Knights Marching Band and
gathered around a makeshift memorial, calling for justice for Tanaya.
Daniel St. Hubert, 27, was arrested
and charged in Avitto’s murder and
the attempted murder of the 7-yearold girl. St. Hubert allegedly stabbed
the children in an elevator at the
Boulevard Houses at 845 Schenck Avenue. The 27-year-old reportedly suffers
from schizophrenia and was remanded
to Bellevue Hospital for psychiatric
evaluation.
While Copeland’s mom wants her
daughter’s killer caught, she is also
calling for more mental health services to prevent future tragedies.
Police say St. Hubert is still considered a suspect in the stabbing death of
Copeland but has not yet been charged.

Last week, residents of Van Siclen’s
Women’s Shelter hit up various news
outlets to voice allegations of abuse
against staff at the homeless shelter
run by Samaritan Village in East New
York.
But frustrations mount as residents
say their growing list of grievances
continue to fall on deaf ears.
The allegations that were reported
included: staff’s failure to assist residents in medical emergencies, HIPAA
violations and employees making inappropriate sexual comments to residents.
In response to published allegations,
representatives from Department of
Homeless Services (DHS) visited the
shelter last Friday to speak with residents and investigate the complaints.
Elischia Fludd, a journalist and former community activist residing at the
shelter since last October, said, “I was
concerned about that meeting, as it really
seemed they were more interested in
proving to me that I didn’t really have
grievances to the level that warranted
this amount of attention.”
In a statement, DHS Press Secretary
Chris Miller said, “DHS staff spent
Friday, June 20th speaking and interacting with Van Siclen residents. Generally, they found the atmosphere at the
site calm and client-centered.”
He also said, “The Department of
Homeless Services and Samaritan Village are working together to address
client concerns at the Van Siclen Women’s Shelter.”
Since October, Fludd has compiled
a long list of grievances filed against
staff. Some included operational issues
such as bathrooms that were not cleaned
for two days, staff refusal to provide
toilet paper and other toiletries - even
though they are required to do so - and
lack of adequate fire safety procedures.
Fludd and other residents said filed
grievances are typically ignored by
management. Fludd said she has had
cases where management refused to
sign her grievances or have even thrown
them away and not investigated them
through DHS, as is the procedure.
One resident, who asked to remain
anonymous, for fear of retaliation from
staff, said she filed a grievance with
management as her diabetic insulin
pens were stolen. However, management refused to accept the grievance
or even investigate, which meant she
could go two days without her medication.
Fludd, 31, who became homeless due
to domestic violence, said she is concerned about the way she is viewed by
staff and DHS personnel. She fears their
concept of her prevents them from
adequately assisting her.
“I think they see me as trying to
cheat the system,” she said.
Fludd, who said she is disabled due
to a degenerative condition with her
legs, has become the resident advocate
among residents of the shelter who
are afraid to speak up for fear of jeopardizing their stay at the shelter.
“A lot of advocacy has been packaged in me; it is a part of me,” she said.
“Due to my disability, I don’t have a
salary but that doesn’t mean I cannot
advocate for myself for what I see in
a system that is horribly flawed.”
New Middle School Prepares Future Scientists
Photos and text by Keciah Bailey
A new middle school has opened in District 18 launching “young scientists” into a technological world
of video game design, LEGO robotics and scientific
exploration and discovery.
But it will not be all fun and games.
The Brooklyn Science and Engineering Academy
(BSEA), founded by principal Angela Defilippis,
will specialize in science, technology, engineering and
mathematics (STEM), starting this September with
81 sixth to eighth grade students. The school will
co-locate inside of P.S. 244, located at 5404 Tilden
Avenue, but will have its own floor and separate entrance.
Defilippis, a former middle school science teacher
and staff developer for the past 12 years at I.S. 259,
said she wrote the proposal for the new middle school
because she felt students in their early teens are typically going through a transitional stage where they
are usually not as excited about school. She wanted
to create a program where students would feel like
what they were doing was significant.
The STEM-based curriculum will prepare students
to think analytically and communicate well, both
verbally and in writing, with an intensive focus on
improving literacy skills. Additional ELA and math
courses will be offered to strengthen student’s skills
in these areas.
STEM focused schools and programs, an initiative
launched by President Obama, were created based on
the belief that science and math-based instruction is
critical to ensuring that students are college and careerready in the 21st century.
And as careers in the science and engineering fields
are rapidly expanding, experts predict there will be a
greater need for scientists, researchers, mathematicians
and engineers, in order to succeed in an increasingly
growing industrialized economy.
BSEA will also include visits to college campuses
as part of the curriculum. Although college may seem
like a far-away reality to middle school students,
Defilippis said early exposure would encourage college readiness and foster an excitement for learning.
“The cornerstone of our philosophy at BSEA is to
show students that college is a tangible experience
where you choose what you want to learn and know
that eventually you will get a job in that area,” De

What Kind Of News Do You REALLY Want To Hear About?
Telling It
Like It Is
By Dara Mormile
eems everyone has a problem with “bad” news.
Shootings, car accidents, robberies… What’s
going on around you? Some of you would
rather not hear about it and be ignorant/blind or lied
to about the conditions of your community. Others
think the truth gives our community ‘a bad reputation.’
Fine, so you want to walk around with rose-colored glasses all the time and fascinate yourself with
updates that have NOTHING to do with the real
world. I’m talking about celebrity gossip, scams and
S
sleaze, meaningless lawsuits and national/international events that take your mind off of what’s going
on down your block.
I’m going to assume most people would rather
read the  Page 6 – where you can disillusion yourself with other people’s drama. We have
plenty of good news to report to the community,
which many seem to ignore, but small acts of kindness aren’t appreciated by the masses.
What kind of news is in demand? For the most
part, from my experience, it’s crap that doesn’t affect
anyone personally and it’s nonsense that takes away
from the reality of criminal and dangerous activity
that needs to be in the spotlight.
Let’s get real! If it weren’t for REAL local news,
from community papers like the  ,
you’d drown in distractions like the following
(which people love to obsess over – because it truly
is, in their eyes, “news”)
 : If ALL you do is base your life on
reality/drama shows and how you “can’t believe”
what so-and-so did on a certain series, you need to
wake up. One minute you’re watching “
” and then next minute you find that your wallet was stolen while you’re riding the train because
you chose not to be vigilant of real-world going-ons.
I’m not saying that all people who watch “
” have their heads buried in the sand, but
you need to balance your general knowledge with
more complicated matters – like where a fatal hitand-run accident happened in your community – so
that you can be educated and aware of your surroundings. Don’t care? Let Honey Boo Boo teach
you the ins and outs of crime prevention!
   Hasn’t happened –
YET – but celebrity break-ups and divorces aren’t
3
any different from normal people’s divorces.
They’re just richer than we are and have more assets
to divide! These “disastrous” stories make page 3 of
the   and the , as if this breaking
information will personally change someone’s life. I
can see a pathetic single woman who keeps up with
the Kardashians saying, “If there’s no hope for Kim,
what will  do?!!” All of a sudden - because someone
famous gets a divorce – the little people make a big
stink as if THEIR lives have changed! Then, the
media (excluding our fine publication) hypes it up
 by psychoanalyzing why and how famous
couples’ turmoil reflects the way normal people
experience a divorce. THIS ISN’T NEWS! Couples
have been breaking up and getting divorces for centuries! What it really is is a diversion from more serious issues going on in our small communities with
real families who are struggling to make ends meet.

posters that are broadcast on  news feeds,
you’re busy telling everyone your business every

however, I use Facebook to keep abreast of news

The Storm Has Passed But
Community Struggles Continue

Last week’s Community Board 18
(CB 18) meeting handled tough topics and was filled with contentious
debates over rezoning due to
Hurricane Sandy and the possible
expansion of a local synagogue.
The first topic was the area’s continual recovery process post-Sandy,
which is still on the mend. To assist
with healing and the ongoing
rebuilding process, almost two years
after the devastating storm, the
Department of City Planning (DCP)
was on hand to explain the new zoning and flood protection guidelines
enacted by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) after
the storm. In what the department
dubbed as the city’s “Resilient
Neighborhood Initiative,” residents
closely associated with southern
Brooklyn’s coastal communities will
participate in a two-year study to
help improve their quality of life and
facilitate healthy discussions with
city officials about the rebuilding
process.
During this time frame, the community will complete surveys and
form a community advisory committee “to get a sense of issues in the
area after the storm.
According to Daphne Lundi, the
DCP’s Flood Resilience Planner, the
city outlined three crucial steps to
help residents: 1) reduce risk for natural hazard, 2) foster economically
and socially vibrant communities
and 3) coordinate land use with
rebuilding activities.
The information outlined did not
seem to be what residents expected
to hear from the department.
“What can you do for us now?”
asked District 18 Manager Dorothy
Turano. “We want to know what the
city, state and federal government
can do to help us.”
“We can build retaining walls to
keep out the water,” continued
Turano, while Ms. Lundi added that
new zoning guidelines suggested
people build higher or make efforts
to raise their homes. However, this
requires additional funding, for
which there has been no indication
on the part of the city or state.
The presenters were then hit with
several hard follow-up questions to
which the DCP stated, “We don’t
have the answers to this problem, but
we are coming to the community for
solutions.”
“We cannot do anything without
community support,” planning officials added.
Both groups will have to find a
way to work together because,
according to FEMA’s massive
expansion of the flood zone, there
are currently 62,000 additional
homes in the newly expanded zone 22,000 of which are located in southern Brooklyn.
Not only does the addition of several thousand more homes to the
flood zone pose a problem for
Bergen Beach residents, but also the
construction of these homes further
complicates matters. Most of the
homes built in the Canarsie/Bergen
Beach community are attached to
one another. Work done to one home
will ultimately affect adjacent
homes. This work would again cost
thousands of dollars for already
cash-strapped homeowners who
have shelled out more than they can
afford to rebuild their homes after
the storm.
Several other troubling issues
arose during the meeting as community board members voted on
whether to approve applications to
work on properties located on
Avenue P and Nostrand Avenue, but
what is normally a quick and easy
process for most community boards,
was not the case for CB 18.

you’d better have a GPS device!
You’d never know where you are

because almost half of the street signs

However, one of the signs was

Church Lane Crumbling After
Councilman Organizes Cleanup
Photo and text by Linda
Steinmuller
Church Lane was nice and clean –
for about a month – until inconsiderate
goons decided to convert the lane, between Remsen Avenue and East 91st
Street, into their own private dumpster.
About 20 black contractor bags filled
with construction debris litter the “orphaned street,” a term City Councilman
Alan Maisel coined to describe publicly used streets which the city refuses to accept ownership.
Last May, Canarsie resident Barbara
Favorito contacted the 
because she was fed up with the accumulation of trash, old tires and overgrown weeds strewn along the pathway.
The concerned resident was unsure who
was responsible for cleaning up the

The councilman organized a cleanup
conducted by a crew of young men from
Millennium Development and the lane
was looking spiffy for awhile - until
inconsiderate pigs deposited their trash
there.
Church Lane is used by Remsen
Avenue residents to gain access to their
driveways - which are behind their
homes - and are disgusted with the
filthy conditions they must endure. No
one seems to know who was responsible for the illegal dumping.
As your parents probably used to
say – “Would you do that in your own
living room?!”
Let’s keep Canarsie clean!

Every year Girl Scouts Troops
2101, 2102, 2104 and 2277 host a tea
party, where they get together for a
fun-filled day of games, activities and
great food. The idea of the gathering
is to further promote Girl Scout traditions and beliefs. Some values
include caring, sharing and helping
others. Troop leaders and participants
of last Saturday’s “Mad Hatter Tea
Party” event, at the Breukelen Houses
Community Center at 715 East 105th

elaborate, theatrical set that rivaled
those seen in off-Broadway plays.
This year’s theme was Alice in
Wonderland. There were beautiful hat
creations, various face cards – like the
Jack, Queen and King – that truly
redefined the definition of “face
cards” and a monster tree that brought
more smiles than scared faces.
Each participant wore a beautiful
dress just like Alice! Not to worry, as
the Mad Hatter did not spoil the
event. The young Girl Scouts looked

Devin Parris: An Artist’s Eye, A Writer’s Touch
Photo and text by Sam Akhtar
Devin Parris wasn’t born in Paris, France. But the
13-year-old shines brighter than the City Of Light
with his free flow of creative ideas. One of his latest
shining moments came when he won the logo design
competition for the Canarsie Merchants Association
(CMA).
On Saturday, June 14th, Parris’ logo was unveiled
as the official logo of the CMA at Canarsie Day. The
teenage boy said he began working on his design in
early May when he first learned of the competition.
“At first, I had a superhero holding everyone up to
demonstrate unity,” said the soft-spoken 8th grader.
Parris said he penciled several drafts on paper before
he scanned the sketch into his computer and made
his final adjustments. “The process took me about a
week to finalize the logo,” Parris told the 
.
Parris’ mother, Pamela, actually learned her son was
one of three finalists when she saw the June 12th edition of the  see  

since 1996 and we always read the .
I was so excited when I saw his logo as one of the
finalists,” said the proud mother.
Devin and his mother couldn’t attend the logo unveiling on June 14th because of a prior commitment.
“It was my birthday,” laughed the mother. But she
got the best gift when Devin’s logo was selected to
represent the CMA.
Emily James, President of the CMA, said, “Devin’s
logo was selected because we are all from different
backgrounds. But we are all business men and women
and in order for us to have a successful community,
we must have unity.” James continued, “We saw ‘Canarsie Unity In Numbers’ and Devin’s logo has a clear
message of what the merchants association represents.”
Parris’ design will now be the official logo for the CMA.
The 8th grader, who recently graduated from Kings
Collegiate Charter School, says he has been drawing
for a long time. “I actually used to get in trouble
because I would draw all the time in school,” Devin said
sheepishly. While his artwork will be on full display
throughout his school’s yearbook, Parris’ talents were
originally re-directed by his writing teacher when the
young man was in the sixth grade.
Ever since, Parris began writing a collection of
short stories and essays and even published a book
titled, “.” In it, Parris
displays his creativity and sense of humor through
various characters. The humble young man purposely
left grammar mistakes in his stories to illustrate his
growth as a writer.
His Author’s Note begins:
“I am not a professional writer. I am just a thirteen
year old who thought it would be pretty cool if my
stories were in a book. I have tried long and hard to
finish at least one novel or story, but my low attention
span and schoolwork have always gotten in my way.
Devin and his proud mother hold up the winning
logo design for the Canarsie Merchants Association.
Finally, I got up and realized “Hey! I could combine
all the stories I’ve ever had into a book!”
While he may not be a professional, Parris has
been stretching himself as a writer. His hard work paid
off when a 2012 Halloween contest won him a prestigious award. His work was published along with12
others in the novel 
The multi-talented teenager is also quite the entrepreneur as well. “We have a website and it shows our
comics and upcoming projects,” Parris said. He and
his friends, Elton Boetang and Nakisha Butler, work
together on several projects. Parris even has a company
called DTM and his own YouTube channel called
DeviaandETM.
Parris is also interested in making claymation movies.
“I first made a dinosaur at camp,” said the budding
artist. “But it takes a lot of time just to make a clip
of only a few seconds,” he explained.
All his talents have allowed the young man to enter
into a new arena as public speaker. He is scheduled
to deliver a speech at a graduation at the Raven’s School
on East 92nd Street. For Parris, it is almost a homecoming of sorts because he has spent years attending
the Raven’s afterschool program.
His teacher, Keonisha Bailey, says Devin helps out
with the younger kids. “He is a high achiever. He is
helpful, has great manners and is respectful,” Ms. Bailey
said. She was “very, very ecstatic” when she learned
Devin’s logo won the CMA contest.
So what does the budding artist and entrepreneur
want to be when he grows up? “I want to be a teacher,”
Devin said.

Bridging The Belt To Safer Roadways

Remember a few years back when three Belt
Parkway bridges in the Canarsie area – Rockaway
Parkway, Fresh Creek Basin and Paerdegat Basin –
were crumbling and it seemed like the reconstruction
project would never be completed? For over two
years now, commuters are enjoying three new
bridges, wider lanes, safety shoulders and elevated
roadways - and traffic congestion seems to have
been relieved a bit. But there are four remaining
bridges on the Belt Parkway that still need to be
replaced to finally alleviate substandard conditions
and bring them into compliance with current state
and federal standards.
The first phase of the Department of
Transportation (DOT) project - Reconstruction of
Seven Bridges on the Belt Parkway – started in 2009
and was substantially completed in August 2013 – at
a whopping price tag of $365 million. It included
work on the Rockaway Parkway, Fresh Creek Basin
and Paerdegat Basin bridges. Upon completion, two
miles of new roadway and drainage were constructed.
As part of Phase Two, the remaining bridges
include: Gerritsen Inlet, the Mill Basin drawbridge,
Nostrand Avenue and Bay Ridge Avenue. All seven
bridges are original structures that were built around
1939.
Work began on the Gerritsen Inlet Bridge, the
fourth bridge to be reconstructed in the DOT project,
February 2013 and is expected to be completed by
Fall 2017.
The new structure will consist of three spans over
Gerritsen Inlet and the 35-foot mean high water
clearance and navigable channel width will remain
unchanged. The DOT is in contact with the U.S.
Coast Guard and local yacht and boat clubs to mitigate impact to recreational boaters during construction.
Approximately 1,700 feet of new pavement will
be built for on-ramp accessibility and access to the
existing pedestrian and bicycle pathway will be
maintained while the bridge is under construction.
Bikers will be happy to know that a new bike/pedestrian path on the bridge and the approach roadway is
included in the project plan.
Once completed, safety improvements such as
wider lanes, safety shoulders, improved visibility,
safety barriers, railing, lighting and highway
drainage will significantly reduce the current accident rate along this stretch of the Belt Parkway,
according to the DOT.
Although not as close to home, the Bay Ridge
Avenue Bridge still impacts area residents due to its
proximity to the heavily traveled Verrazano Narrows
Bridge. A work zone was recently established and
contractors are in the process of demolishing the
concrete bridge deck and support steel on the north
section of the bridge. Based on the current schedule,
this work zone will remain in effect through the
early fall. Motorists will feel the impact indefinitely weekdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. as one lane in
each direction may be closed to facilitate reconstruction work.
Three down – four more to go…

Potential Renters Beware!
Scammers Are Looking To Swindle You!

Scam artists are making it hard for potential
renters to find a home. As if it’s not bad enough to
find a decent and affordable apartment or house that
meets one’s living needs, money-hungry thieves are
using yet another tactic to swindle desperate people
out of thousands of dollars.
According to Bo Zgoda, of Bo’s Prime Realty,
people posing as legitimate agents are breaking into
homes – many of which are in contract and are about
to be sold – and calling the properties their own.
“We found out that a fake agent breaks into a
house that’s for sale, takes pictures of the rooms and
apartments and posts them on Craigslist, so renters
think the home is available,” Zgoda told the
 . “In a recent incident, the fake
agent held an ‘open house’ at the property they broke
into and showed the place as if it was ready to rent.”
Once the ‘agent’ successfully sealed the deal with
the potential renter, they took the deposit and then
disappeared. “Someone came to me and said she
gave the scammer a $900 deposit but couldn’t get in
touch with him after that for the keys,” Zgoda said.
“I met the woman at the house because I wanted to
know how this scammer was getting away with what
they did.”
Upon further investigation, it was discovered that
the rent receipt was bogus and the suspect, who
already took the money, had new locks sitting on a
kitchen table – ready to be installed. “I saw that the
glass on the back door was busted, so the person was
able to reach inside, open the locks and access the
house.”
When it comes to cracking down on scammers,
Zgoda said local authorities haven’t offered any
solution other than to take the matter to small claims
court.
To avoid being scammed, renters/buyers can do
the following:
Make sure the real estate agent gives you their
business card and check the agent’s office for validity and if they are associated with the Multiple
Listing Service (MLS).
If you’re renting from a homeowner, find out if the
house is under foreclosure and/or the bank owns the
property. To investigate a property, visit
nyc.gov/buildings. On the city’s web site, visitors
can find out the status and details of a house by
inputting the address and borough where it’s located.
Potential renters – who aren’t computer savvy –
can also visit their local real estate office and, for a
small fee, agents can research the property status.
Speak to your attorney before making any final
financial decisions such as down payments and
deposits.
“Don’t give money to anyone –and don’t be desperate,” she advised. “It’s worth it to do the research
and spend a little time finding out where your money
is really going.”
Driver Could Face
Almost Two Decades
In Prison

For some, an alleged murderer getting 15 years
in the slammer might not be seen as “justice”
being served. However, a 62-year-old driver–
who reportedly rear-ended a vehicle in Canarsie,
resulting in the death of a 9-year-old girl, has
been charged with manslaughter in the second
degree. He was arraigned last Wednesday and
could be facing as little as five to 15 years in
prison, if convicted.
The driver, Kenneth Palache, is reportedly
responsible for the accident, which took place on
Sunday, May 4th, at Remsen Avenue at about
4:40 p.m. According to officials, police first
responded to a collision at Foster Avenue and
East 87th Street involving a Honda minivan –
which Palache drove into a jeep. He then fled the
scene and drove to Remsen Avenue and Avenue
L, where police said his car pulled into a bus
stop. When cops attempted to pull him over, he
drove away “at an excessive rate of speed” striking a Nissan SUV and running through a steady
red light. As a result of trying to escape police,
he violently crashed into a Toyota Sienna minivan and ultimately rear-ended a Hyundai
Elantra, which was stopped at a red light on
Remsen Avenue and Avenue N.
Nine-year-old Rebecca Ramnarine was in the
back of the Hyundai and, as a result of the collision, pinned inside the car. Paramedics on the
scene tried to treat Ramnarine but she was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
Upon further investigation, police discovered
that Palache was driving with a suspended
license – another charge the Long Island man
will face when he returns to court on August
24th.
A memorial for the child remains in Canarsie
at the accident site, which has been the location
of dozens of accidents over the years.

Keeping The Greenway Going On Canarsie Street
Photos and text by Linda Steinmuller
In an effort to create more “green” space in Canarsie, a bike path was created along Paerdegat Avenue
North. Construction crews recently put the finishing touches on the two-way pathway, adding yellow
lanes and directional arrows. But some residents are
not heeding the new traffic pattern – and are using
the bicycle path as a parking spot.
The Department of Transportation (DOT) was
responsible for the “green” project, which includes
approximately one mile of “greenway,” starting at
East 76th Street and Flatlands Avenue and continuing
along Paerdegat Avenue North to Seaview Avenue
(see 

The concept is that bicycle enthusiasts can, and
should, ride freely in urban areas – without sharing
the roadway with motorists. The new recreational trail,
known as the “Canarsie Connector,” provides better
access to Canarsie Pier and the Jamaica Bay
Greenway, a continuous 19-mile loop around Jamaica
Bay.
As part of the DOT proposal, and a subsequent
traffic study, one lane of traffic was removed from
Paerdegat Avenue North. The existing “angle only”
parking was moved from the far west side of the thoroughfare and placed between the moving lane and
the new bike lane.
Although it is illegal for commercial vehicles to park
on residential streets in New York City, trucks make
a habit of using the “angle only” parking along Paerdegat Avenue North. The situation has worsened since
the parking lane now sits in the middle of the street.
Oversized trucks can’t fit into the new parking spaces
- but that didn’t stop two flatbed truck operators from
squeezing their vehicles into the new spots. One of
the trucks sprawled over three lanes - parking parallel to the concrete barriers. Another monstrous flatbed
totally ignored the concrete barriers - backing right
over it so the rear of the truck extended onto the bike
lane.
C’mon people, give the bikers a break. Let’s put
the “brakes” on this issue before it goes “spinning”
out of control.

Superb Play And Intense Squabbles Were The Story Of Caribbean Cup Play
Photos and text by Ann Marie Turton
It wasn’t pretty but at the end of the day Guyana,
Barbados, and Grenada put on impressive performances this past Sunday in the fourth series of Caribbean
Cup action. Guyana came out swinging in the first
match of the day at Thomas Jefferson Athletic Field,
ultimately defeating twin nation Antigua and Barbuda
with a final score of 5-1, but Guyana’s coach still felt
there was room for improvement from his squad.
“Even though we had a victory, we are still disappointed with our performance. I know we could play
better” said Coach Renwick Hutson.
Guyana scored two quick goals in the first few
minutes of the match leaving Antigua confused and
surprisingly angry at themselves. Several lapses in
communication did not make the situation any easier for
Antigua, as constant bickering took place between its
players. The goalie could even be heard yelling at his
players urging them to move the ball and to run faster.
While Antigua struggled to regain its composure,
Guyana remained relentless as everything seemed to
be going its way. From fluid movement and great execution on the ball to quick runs up the field, Guyana
was virtually unstoppable including Anthony Abrams,
who scored 3 of Guyana’s five goals. His countryman
Clive Nobrega contributed the final two goals.
Despite a sluggish start, Antigua’s fortune changed
in the waning minutes of the first half, as it began to
move the ball well getting more shots on goal, including
its only goal of the day from Tamarley Thomas.
In the second half, Antigua looked much more
relaxed and challenged Guyana every chance it could.
With its internal squabbles behind it, Antigua channeled more of its intensity into slowing Guyana’s
offense, but even an improved Antigua squad could
not stop Guyana’s outright domination.
Barbados would deliver the same crushing defeat
to the second of two twin nations competing in the Cup,
St. Kitts and Nevis, in a hard fought 4-1 bout. It was a
total team effort for Barbados, as four players (Omar
Russell, Akeem Broomes, Dwayne Sealy, and Correy
Barrow) each scored a goal.
In what was probably the most aggressive and evenly
matched game, Barbados and St. Kitts frequently battled for possession of the ball.
“We prepared for the game. We were playing to St.
Kitts tactical approach, keeping the ball on the ground,
looking for visual cues,” said Bajan head coach Garfield Cummings.
Barbados scored the match’s first goal, but St. Kitts
and Nevis quickly equalized off of a penalty kick during
which St. Kitts’ Jamie McKoy scored on what looked
to some, including Bajan defenders, like a handball.
The physicality of play by both teams increased
forcing referees to dish out consecutive yellow cards
to two St.Kitts and Nevis’ players.
Fans and cup officials commented on the ferocity
of the match, particularly of that coming from St. Kitts.
Though St. Kitts and Nevis tried to mount an attack
with the help of several corner kicks and great runs
against Barbados, the Bajans were agile and more skillful players.
Nevis went down early in the match and struggled
to work its way back into it, as Barbados constantly
pounded the ball so much so that it was just too much
for St. Kitts and its sister island Nevis.
The day’s final match featured Grenada and St. Lucia
in what Cup official John Melbourne referred to as an
“extremely competitive match”, ending in a 2-0 score.
In the day’s only shut out, Grenada’s Chevy Augustine
and Kimron Redhead scored the winning goals. The
day culminated with another exciting, action packed
series which is sure to continue for the rest of the cup.
Because these featured teams recently played each
other, they won’t be in action next week, but they will
be back in action in the weeks to come.
Barbados and St. Kitts and Nevis are scheduled to
play two weeks from now on, Sunday, July 6th as they
face Dominica and Haiti, respectively. St. Lucia is set
to square off against Panama in the third and final
game of the day.
The following week, July 13th, Guyana will take
on Trinidad and Tobago, while its former opponent,
Antigua and Barbuda, go up against Grenada in the
day’s first match.

Police On The Hunt For
Bank Robbing Trio
The New York City Police Department is asking for the public’s help locating three suspects
wanted in connection with two burglaries of banks
that occurred in the Flatbush and East New York
areas.
On Wednesday, June 18th at approximately 5
a.m., the suspects entered the Citibank located at
702 Utica Avenue by prying open a rear facade of
the bank. Once inside, the suspects attempted to
force open the cash compartments of the bank
tellers’ stations. The suspects fled the location
empty-handed.
On Thursday, June 19th at approximately 5:30
a.m., the suspects entered the M&T Bank located
at 2664 Atlantic Avenue by prying open a rear
door at the location. The suspects attempted to
forcibly gain entry into the bank tellers’ area but
fled the location when the security alarm sounded.
Anyone with information regarding these incidents 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.NYPDCRIME-STOPPERS.COM or texting their tips to

completed and opened by July and will have different areas to hold simulations. The old site of
the academy, on East 20th Street between Second
and Third avenues in Manhattan, will still be utilized by the NYPD until an alternative purpose or
possible sale of the property is decided.
As part of his return to Canarsie, Tucker had
the pleasure of being reunited with Frank Seddio,
who was “Officer Seddio” to Tucker when they
worked together, met with 69th Precinct Captain
Norman Grandstaff and congratulated Cops of
the Month recipients, police officers Chris
Galvez and Matt Mauro.
Officers Galvez and Mauro were honored for
their work on June 7th. Around 10:20 p.m., the
precinct received a call of a man shooting randomly into the air on East 86th Street. The officers drove to the area in an unmarked vehicle and
noticed someone placing an item into the trunk of
his car. They approached the man and questioned
him as they investigated the trunk. Inside was a
.380 caliber handgun. They placed the man into
custody and confiscated the firearm.
While the next meeting of the council is not
scheduled until September (check our future
Community Guides), Captain Grandstaff and
69th Precinct officers will still be working diligently throughout the summer - and particularly
during the 4th of July weekend - to keep people
safe.
“We will have extra officers on duty for the
4th of July looking out for illegal fireworks and
keeping an eye on house parties,” stated
Grandstaff. “If you know of homeowners that are
causing noise problems or have too many people
around their property, then write down the
addresses. Residents can call the precinct and
make a report. We will keep an eye on properties
we know have been troublesome in the past.”
In addition to the precinct, Grandstaff welcomed

Councilman’s Post-Superstorm Sandy
Survey Results Are In

Shortly after Hurricane Sandy tore
through Canarsie, City Councilman
Alan Maisel felt it was necessary to
evaluate residents’ losses. Since
thousands were affected, displaced
and suffered overwhelming damages,
Maisel’s office sent out surveys to
gauge the needs that still exist within
the Canarsie community.
“As their representative, I want to
assist my constituents with challenging issues, such as supporting programmatic services or passing legislation,” he stated in a recent press
release.
Ten thousand surveys were sent to
residents in areas that were hit by
Hurricane Sandy – and there were
449 documented responses. The data,
Maisel said, will also assist in taking
preventative measures in the event of
another natural disaster.
The results were as follows:
• 67 percent were not displaced by
the hurricane
• 85.5 percent of those surveyed
said their home was damaged
• The average value of damages to
homes was estimated to be $30,084
• 67 percent of affected residents
received monetary assistance to
repair damages to their home (278
received Federal funds, 54 received
Small Business funds and 51
received funds from their insurance
company).
• 81 percent said they have a
homeowner’s insurance policy
• A whopping 83 percent of residents said they were dissatisfied with
their insurance settlements
• While 77 percent claimed floodwaters came into their home, 56 percent said damage was due to sewage
backup in their house
• 44 percent said they had mold
remediation in their home
• Of those who had help from
Rapid Repairs and Build It Back, 63
percent were satisfied with Rapid
Repairs’ work and 47 percent applied
and completed the application
process for Build It Back
• 61 percent also said their homes
were damaged by Hurricane Irene in
2011
• 77 percent of those surveyed said
the councilman’s office could contact
them for more information about
their losses
Hurricane Sandy victims are
encouraged to call Councilman Alan
Maisel’s office at 718-241-9330 to
give more feedback if they did not
receive a survey.

The founders of Surf For All, a non-profit
organization that teaches disabled kids and adults
how to surf, held a fundraiser on June 10th at The
Park Sports Bar and Grill in Long Beach.
Founders Cliff and Will Skudin, together with
Jim Mulvaney, were delighted with the turnout
and raised over $8,000 for the purchase of Wave
Jets to make it easier for instructors to help students in the water.
Cliff Skudin said, “We believe the ocean is a
source of healing and spiritual strength that should
be accessible to all.”
Surf For All is a volunteer-driven organization
with no paid employees.
Please visit the website, www.surfforall.org, for
more details and to donate. All contributions go to
purchasing equipment and help fund all outings.
Cliff and Will Skudin also own and operate
Skudin Surf camps and lessons in Long Beach and
Rockaway.
Surf For All’s roots go back to 2002 with the
development of a surf program for developmentally disabled teenagers. Over the years, they
expanded their outings to cover a broader spectrum of disabilities – from autism, cerebral palsy,
visual impairment and others. They work closely
with the Long Beach School District and provide
free weekly lessons for middle school students
during the summer special education program.
They have also expanded beyond teenagers and
work closely with Wounded Warriors, providing
lessons and support for military heroes. They also
provide programs for the economically disadvantaged. Their work has been featured on network
television, major newspapers, radio and social
media. Their message is always the same: We get
more enjoyment out of the program than the students.
Volunteers are all certified surf instructors
and/or licensed New York State lifeguards. They
range from students to teachers, from businessmen
to politicians, moms and dads and at least one
grandparent. They have been fortunate to get some
of the biggest names in international surfing
involved. It’s quite a rush for a kid to get a lesson
then go home and Google the name of his instructor and see that the teacher is a star. It’s like playing catch with Derek Jeter.
Jim set up the first New York outing for disabled children in 2002 with his friend, internationally known surfer and autism expert Izzy
Paskowitz. Jim’s son, Dan, has profound autism.
Dan was one of the first students in the water. Jim
is a consultant who provides security and anti-ter-

rorism advice for clients here and abroad. He is a
former journalist and winner of a Pulitzer Prize
for Investigative Reporting. In the winter, he is an
on-ice coach for a hockey team of young adults
with autism. Cliff has a passion for working with
students with disabilities and he is co-founder of
Surf For All.
Cliff is co-founder and president of Skudin Surf
Inc., as well as a nationally-ranked lifeguard and
experienced waterman. Cliff is a certified New
York State teacher and holds a Masters Degree in
Physical Education. Cliff was nominated in the
2012 Billibong XXL monster paddle awards. A
2012 and 2013 Big Wave World Tour Nelscott
Reef Oregon invitee, he has surfed the biggest and
heaviest surf spots on the planet such as
Mavericks, Waimea Bay, Outer Reefs Hawaii,
Nelscott Reef, Todos Santos, Puerto Escondido,
and Central California, and East Coast Hurricane
Chasing and pioneered big wave surf spots on the
East Coast with his brother Will.
Will is an internationally ranked big wave
surfer who has competed in some of the most significant tournaments around the globe. Along with
his brother, Cliff, Will has been featured as
“Hurricane Chasers,” who race up and down the
eastern seaboard to hit the waves when hurricanes
hit land. Will’s exploits are all over YouTube. He
also runs a program that combines surfing and the
arts including video, music, painting and other
expressions of creativity.

Anti-Violence Art Installation Comes To East Flatbush

June is Gun Violence Awareness Month and a
brand-new art installation is sending a message –
loud and clear – that business owners, students and
elected officials want to see an end to the gun violence which plagues East Flatbush and Flatlands. “I
was delighted when Councilman Jumaane Williams
asked me to participate in the unveiling of the
murals. They demonstrate the good in this neighborhood,” Connie Cincotta, President of Glenwood
Mason Supply Co. Inc., told the 
“Violence Destroys The Light Of Today” features
eight 4’ x 8’ paintings depicting various illustrations
of gun violence. The artwork, which was painted by
students from P.S. 109, located at 1001 East 45th
Street, was unveiled last Saturday in a special ceremony. The murals are displayed in an unusual location - on a wall underneath the Long Island Railroad
(LIRR) underpass on Glenwood Road and East 45th
Street.
In a continuing effort to stop gun violence in the
neighborhood, Councilman Jumaane Williams contacted Groundswell, a not-for-profit mural project
organization. Lead artist for the project, Christopher
Cardinale, described the process.
“Groundswell contacted me and asked if I could
work on the theme of anti-violence in East Flatbush
with P.S. 109,” stated Cardinale. “I’ve been leading
mural projects since 2001 and working for the reduction in violence is important to me so I accepted. We
researched the topic for two months. The students
did art exercises and then we executed the designs
together. Once the designs were done, the students
painted eight boards twice a week after school.”
Cardinale was joined by Assistant Artist Adon
Palermo and as many as 18 student artists of P.S. 109
to bring the project to fruition.
“Good organizing starts with love and we believe
art making is an act of love,” stated Groundswell
Mural Project Executive Director Amy Sananman.
“The people who came to the project came with that
love. It was inspirational to see students, community leaders, politicians, and business leaders come
together to speak against violence and to promote
peace.”
“It will be helpful for people and schools to learn
how to stop violence,” stated Avianna Pilgrim, one
of the student artists on hand for the unveiling.
Pilgrim joined the project with a passion for art and
wound up working on all of the panels. She joined
three of her fellow artists to unveil the installation
and to be honored by Williams and Groundswell for
their hard work.
“Anti-violence should be a given,” stated
Community Board 18 District Manager Dorothy
Turano. “People need to be reminded to stop and
think.”
Neighborhood businesses like Glenwood Mason
Supply Co. Inc., located just a few blocks away at
4100 Glenwood Road, want to see the elimination of
guns in the area too. Female entrepreneur and business owner Connie Cincotta established the business, which offers brick, block, sand, cement and all
related masonry items, in the early 1990s with a
handful of employees. Under her leadership, the
business grew to 20 employees and the company
now boasts 12 acres, including their offices and
stockyards.
Cincotta, who was one of the hosts and supplied
the refreshments for the event, grew up in the area
and was thrilled to see the new art gallery.
“I was born here, raised here, went to church and
worked here,” stated Cincotta. “As much as I am a
part of this neighborhood, this neighborhood is very
much a part of me, so it’s important to me to see
these positive developments. The significance of this
art gallery to me is that it demonstrates the commitment of the community, particularly Councilmember
Jumaane Williams, who safeguards our neighbors
and instills positive values. I am proud and happy to
be part of this and I know that under the stewardship
of Jumaane Williams, the best is yet to come.”
In addition to the unveiling of their work, the student artists were able to meet Gama Droiville, who
was struck by stray bullets as he walked on Flatbush
Avenue and Beverly Road in April. The bullets
struck him in his head, causing him to lose sight in
his right eye. Since the incident, Droiville graduated
from I.S. 285 and accepted entrance to Nazareth

Hello City Councilmember Alan Maisel,
I am a constituent who lives on Paerdegat 13th
Street. There are numerous community issues that
need your attention.
I appreciate your responsiveness to constituents’
issues, such as Sandy relief and other matters. Three
weeks ago, I called your office regarding the deplorable,
garbage-strewn condition of Paerdegat Avenue North.
Miraculously, the entire roadway and sidewalk were
cleaned. Thank you.
If the following issues are redundant, in the sense
that you and your staff have considered them, my
apologies.
First, the Department of Transportation, as I write
this letter, is redesigning Paerdegat Avenue North with
two-directional bike lanes. The parking spots are being
redefined and the roadway is being narrowed from
two lanes to one lane. Would it be possible for you to
take a drive along Paerdegat Avenue North to see
whether the one-car lane is too narrow? Many parked
cars already have been hit. Some of my neighbors
and I feel that the driving part of the roadway is too
narrow.
Second, manager Mr. Irv Landau of PacPlex, formerly the Paerdegat Athletic Club, needs to be reminded
that sweeping the sidewalk outside of the club is mandatory and not optional. Also, that maintenance of the
club’s grounds with the trees, dying trees and dying
shrubs, oil leakage, etc., should be viewed as mandatory in order to attract and keep club clientele.
Third, around Canarsie and surrounding areas,
many of the roadways are pockmarked and very difficult to drive through. It is heartening to see that
parts of East 80th Street, from Flatlands Avenue, facing south, are being resurfaced. However, East 80th
Street, from Farragut Road to Foster Avenue, both
north and southbound, are very pockmarked - a perfect candidate for resurfacing too. Remsen Avenue
and Rockaway Parkway should also be considered.
Fourth, the median between the west and eastbound lanes of Foster Avenue from Kings Highway
to Remsen Avenue is in dire need of beautification
with planting of trees and shrubs. The roadway may
need resurfacing or at the very least patching.
Congratulations to Kierra on her recent graduation
from the Lenox Academy Junior High School. We
wish you luck in high school and know that no
matter how much you move up in the world, you’ll
always be our little girl. Don’t let anything or anyone change your awesome personality! Love mom
Robin and sister Dara.
Fifth, street sweeping of Paerdegat Avenue North
by sanitation has been almost non-existent. If your
office can have a conversation with them so that the
sweeper will pass on Mondays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.,
that would certainly help. I have complained to 311
and to the District 18 Sanitation inspector.
Finally, the trees in the Paerdegat area are struggling to survive after Sandy. Many have dead limbs
that could fall and seriously hurt a person or damage
property. Many of those trees are in need of pruning.
Some trees need removal. There are also many empty
tree pits that are in need of trees.
Thank you again for your willingness to serve
Community Board 18. I am sure that you also have a
list from others. However, thank you for your ear.
Although there are many other issues in the neighborhood, I will stop at these for now. I look forward
to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Christina Mark

THE
POINTING FINGER
BY DR. STEPHEN FINGER
Don’t Go Near The Water
“What’s all this fuss about the oceans becoming more ‘Hasidic’? I know lots of Hasidim
and they’re very fine people.”
“Emily.”
“And they’re also very modest. When they go
swimming, they always wear those long bathing
suits that go all the way from their ankles to their
neck.”
“Emily.”
“And besides, the oceans belong to everyone and if the Hasidim want to swim in the
oceans, well, what business it that of...”
“Emily!”
“What?”
“Not ‘Hasidic,’ Emily. ‘Acidic.’ The oceans
are becoming more acidic because when carbon dioxide dissolves in the ocean, it combines
with water molecules, hydrogen ions are gener
“Oh. Never mind.”
So, is this really a serious problem or, like
Emily Litella, should we just...’never mind?’

filippis said.
On the school’s orientation night, held on Monday, June 23rd, the students and parents had a
preview of a typical day in the classroom, as
they donned their gloves in a hands-on science
experiment, examining soil types and observing
earthworms.
Other students had the opportunity to visit the
gym and play soccer as they met with their new
physical education teacher and future classmates.
Many parents expressed excitement about
having their children in a school where they
can explore their passion for science and technology.
Parent Nikki Bowen said she enrolled her
son Nicholas, who previously attended P.S. 235,
as he had a passion for video games and design.
Another parent, Courtenay Hazell, believes
BSEA will be a good fit for her son Cameron
due to his love of engineering. “He’s very interested in engineering and has always been
very fascinated with cars,” she said.
BSEA promises to be hands-on and exciting,
encouraging children to explore, discover and
create as they are engaged as “future scientists.”
The school is expected to enroll 81 sixth
The pH of a liquid tells us how acidic it is.
Pure water has a pH of 7 and is neutral. Liquids
with pH lower than 7 are acids and greater than
7, bases or alkaline.
Since the start of the industrial revolution 200
years ago, the pH of the oceans has declined
from 8.2 to 8.1 so that it would actually be more
correct to say that the oceans are becoming more
‘neutral’, i.e. less alkaline, than to say that they’re
becoming more ‘acidic’. But ‘neutral oceans’
just won’t get those juices flowing the way ‘acidic’
ones will.
“Psst! Think someone is trying to snooker us
with all this stuff? More taxes? More grants?
More loan guarantees? Help out the Green
People a little? Maybe we should ask to see
their emails. Oh, all the hard drives fell into the
ocean and got eaten by sharks? Well, it could
happen.”
By the way, nobody believes that the oceans
will ever become real ‘acids’ like vats of sulfuric acid in those old Bela Lugosi movies where
everything goes up in bubbles and smoke. Go
for a risk-free swim anytime and, “if you like
your bathing suit, you can keep your bathing suit.
Period.”

Old Glory Proudly Waves –
Again – Near Canarsie Pier
Canarsie resident and U.S. Army veteran Allan Hyatt contacted the
  a few months ago
when he discovered the U.S. flag, as
well as a P.O.W. flag, displayed at the
Veteran’s Circle near Canarsie Pier
was torn and tattered.
City
Councilman Alan Maisel assisted and
arranged for the Department of
Transportation to remove the worn
flag, stating that a new flag would
arrive soon from Washington, D.C. –
in time for Memorial Day. A new flag
now proudly waves at the roundabout
near the Belt Parkway but it remained
a mystery – for
weeks – as to who
was responsible for
replacing the old
one. According to
Maisel, the replace-

sitting
in
Washington. After
a little investigation, the 

that it was the patriotic folks from the

Some Trashy Residents
Are Abusing The System
By Dara Mormile
Don’t feel like placing your bulk trash curbside
on designated garbage collection days in your community? If you’re tempted to drop boxes of old
clothes, computers or weeks-old recyclable trash
in a public garbage bin on a street corner, you’re
not only misusing the receptacles, you’re also
unnecessarily overwhelming the Department of
Sanitation (DOS).
In an effort to prevent street garbage bins from
being misused, the DOS recently removed trash
cans from various corners as part of a test pilot,
where residents were tossing tons of monstrous
debris.
So what type of trash is acceptable? According
to DOS spokesperson Belinda Mager, “Litter baskets are designed to be used by pedestrians. They
are intended for pedestrian trash, such as candy
wrappers, napkins, or similar light refuse.”
She also noted that litter baskets may  be used
to dispose of household or commercial trash.
While residents may have noticed garbage bins
missing along certain streets on Flatlands Avenue
and Rockaway Parkway, the Sanitation Department
said it doesn’t have plans to remove any more
receptacles in our community – yet.
“The Department is always looking for ways to
keep our city clean. In some areas of Brooklyn,
local residents have misused corner litter baskets
by dumping their household waste in them, even
though they receive pickups at their homes twice a
week,” Mager told the . “At the
request of local leaders, we’ve either removed the
corner baskets or, in some instances, added additional baskets at certain corners depending upon
the circumstances. We also have our enforcement
agents inspecting problem areas and actually examining illegally dumped household waste bags for
evidence connecting them to the basket abusers. If
caught, they face a $100 fine.”
The DOS has stated that street garbage is picked
up on a regular basis, as scheduled, but residents
are overwhelming public baskets in between pickups. The test pilot in Brooklyn has recently included streets in Bensonhurst, Boro Park and Windsor
Terrace.

Consensus Statement On Sodium
Cardiovascular diseases, including
heart disease and stroke, are leading
causes of death in the United States.
Influencing the major risk factors for
cardiovascular disease provides an
opportunity to improve Americans’
health, which in turn can prevent illness and disability, reduce health disparities, save lives and reduce
healthcare costs. Considering the full
scope of research, the undersigned affirm the scientific basis for lowering
current sodium consumption levels in
the U.S. population.
Public health recommendations
are made after weighing all of the evidence, including studies of greater
and lesser strength of design and
some with conflicting results. A vast
body of research, including observational studies, feeding studies, and
randomized controlled trials, indicates that lowering sodium intake
lowers blood pressure, a major risk
factor for cardiovascular disease.
After reviewing evidence on sodium
intake and cardiovascular disease
outcomes, the Institute of Medicine
recently concluded that reducing population sodium intake would have a
positive effect on public health. This
is consistent with the compelling
body of evidence from laboratory,
clinical, and population research that
together establishes that high sodium
intake causes increases in blood pressure.

previously known. The work of psychodynamic psychotherapy is to uncover and identify these distortions.
For those readers curious about where the concept of
people distortion comes from, it is based on what psychiatrist Harry Stack Sullivan called “parataxic distortion”
and what psychoanalyst Karen Horney called “neurotic

Regional High School with a full scholarship.
Originally planned as a full-scale mural to cover
the wall, the LIRR deemed the structure too old to
have such an art display but were willing to have
the panels placed onto it. New drainage holes were
drilled into the wall and various areas were
patched to attempt to limit damage to the panels
from pipes and weather.
“The paint is high quality and the boards are
very sturdy,” stated Cardinale. “We’re sure the
panels will get dirty but they can be cleaned with
soap and water. Groundswell has done similar
installations and they lasted a very long time. But,
if needed, they can always be touched up.”
In addition to Councilman Williams and the
Groundswell Mural Project, the gallery received
assistance and support from Community Boards
17 and 18, Assemblywoman Helene Weinstein,
Congresswoman Yvette Clarke, the 63rd and 67th
Precincts and the Flatbush Flatlands Civic Group.
Student artists, who were unable to attend the
unveiling, included Wilson Carderias, Renaldine
Compere, Fitzpatrick Compail, Ernesto Gonzales,
Steben Houenou, Keeyanah Posy, Gaethan Sidney
and Shania Walters.
