These Kids Sure Have A Lot Of Character!
Every year, students, teachers and staff at P.S. 115 do their part to “celebrate” Halloween while also dressing up for a good cause – their Character Day Parade, which supports the American Cancer Society. Last
Thursday, almost everyone at the East 92nd Street elementary school dressed up as a character from one
of their favorite books. As is tradition, everyone marched around the schoolyard, showing off their costumes
and getting in the Halloween spirit. There was even a pumpkin patch in the schoolyard, complete with scarecrows and stacks of hay.

Brooklyn Dems Sweep NYC Elections
By Sam Akhtar
It’s official. Bill de Blasio beat out
Joe Lhota to become the next mayor
of New York City.
For the first time in about 20 years,
a Democrat will be living at Gracie
Mansion. Polls closed by 9 p.m. on
Tuesday, November 5th. Within minutes, media outlets were comfortable
enough to declare de Blasio the winner. The Park Slope resident was well
ahead of the Republican in most polls.
De Blasio easily crushed Lhota by an
overwhelming 50 percent. De Blasio
will be sworn into office in January.
In other notable election news,
Letitia James easily won the Public
Advocate office. James, also from
Brooklyn, ran in three contests during
this election season. She barely
missed winning the primary by the
required 40 percent to avoid a runoff.
On October 1st, she beat Daniel
Squadron in a contest more discussed
for its cost to taxpayers than the actual candidates. In case anything happens to the mayor, the advocate is next
in line even though its office isn’t well
funded.
Longtime
Brooklyn
District
Attorney Charles Hynes lost a convincing race to Kenneth Thompson.
Hynes originally lost the Democratic
primary to Thompson on September
10th and originally pledged a smooth
transition. However, Hynes, who was
in office for 24 years, changed his
mind and ran on the Republican and
Conservative lines. Hynes’ loss is historic. It is the first time in decades a
sitting District Attorney has lost.
In other races:
Scott Stringer is the new
Comptroller.
Eric Adams officially becomes the
new Brooklyn Borough President
replacing
term-limited
Marty
Markowitz.
Alan Maisel beat Anthony
Testaverde to win the City Council
seat. Lew Fidler is leaving due to term
limits.
There were also six proposals voters were asked to vote for. Voters
approved the building of more casinos. Four will be upstate with the
potential for more casinos in New
York City seven years from now.
Already, there is a Resorts Casino in
Queens.
Voters shut down the proposal to
raise the age of judges. The proposal
called for the age limit to be raised to
80. Currently, judges are required to
retire once they reach 70.

come in to look at the problem, tell me

since she can’t keep them in her closet. “I think they should relocate me

Captain Grandstaff Takes The Helm At The 69th Precinct
Photo and text by Dara Mormile
If there’s one man you’re going to be glad to see
hitting the streets of Canarsie – it’s Captain Norman
Grandstaff, the new commanding officer of the 69th
Precinct. Although Grandstaff only started last
week, he knows he’s ready to serve the community
and looks forward to maintaining a close relationship with those who influence change.
“I want to be everywhere I can be,” Grandstaff
recently told the Canarsie Courier. “I want to meet
with all of the key leaders in Canarsie and try to be
at every event. It’s important I make myself visible
so residents know I’m open to them and that I’m
available to tend to their concerns. I don’t want them
to have to wait until the next Community Council
meeting to speak to me – they can come into the
precinct any time and bring their problems to me.”
The Staten Island native always knew he wanted
to be a police officer and help people. He’s been on
the force for 15 years and began his career at the
15th Precinct in Manhattan, where he was stationed
for two years. Afterward, he served precincts
throughout Brooklyn such as the 90th Precinct in
Williamsburg, the 79th Precinct in Bedford
Stuyvesant and most recently the 75th Precinct in
East New York.
“The 75th Precinct is one of the busiest and biggest
precincts in Brooklyn, so coming to the 69th Precinct
is a nice change,” he said. “Here, I can focus a little
more and follow up on crimes.”
Captain Grandstaff said the most diverse community he’s worked in was the 70th Precinct in the
Midwood area.
“I was there for four and a half years and saw so
many different cultures and backgrounds – but
everyone wants the same thing – to feel safe in their
community and to know that the police are looking
out for them,” the captain said.
One of the crimes he said that needs to be tackled
in the 69th Precinct is rooftop burglaries wherein
thieves break into the roof of an establishment and
steal money or break into an ATM. “These burglaries
have been happening along Flatlands Avenue and if
we have to bolster different platoons, it’s critical to
meet with supervisors and make changes.”
When Grandstaff isn’t on the job, he enjoys
spending time with his family. He has three children
and coaches his son’s basketball team. “That’s the
one thing I enjoy the most when I’m home.”
The love of law enforcement also runs in his family, as he has four brothers – and three are police
officers. “It’s not so much a competition – we learn
from each other,” he said with a laugh.
Grandstaff precedes Deputy Inspector George
Fitzgibbon, who was the commanding officer at the
Canarsie precinct for over two years.
“I would like to thank Deputy Inspector George
Fitzgibbon for leaving the command in good shape
Captain Norman Grandstaff
and for helping me with this transition,” he said. “I
also want to thank Roxanne Persaud, president of the
69th Precinct Community Council – she’s been very
warm towards me and I look forward to working
with her and the rest of the council.”
Fitzgibbon formally introduced the new captain
at the October Community Council meeting, during
which time Grandstaff welcomed input from everyone.
Parents To DOE: Not Everyone Wants A Slice of The Pie!
Photo and text by Dara Mormile
Who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned pizza party? That delicious
mozzarella cheese layered on top of
tomato sauce and fresh bread...
If you ask members of the
Community Education Council
(CEC), and a large percentage of parents, their kids are NOT happy with
“Pizza Fridays,” which is designated
by the Department of Education
(DOE) and School Food & Nutrition
Services.
“It’s horrible!” one board member
said. “My kids don’t like it and I don’t
know who’s asking what these students actually eat.”
At the October meeting of CEC 18,
which took place Monday evening,
audience members sounded off to
Keith Graham, School Food &
Nutrition Services representative,
about their dissatisfaction with the
pizza that’s served to their children.
School pizza is not made with your
average ingredients, said Graham.
“The pizza we serve has a quarter of
the sodium and fat that regular pizza
has – and we have to follow dietary
guidelines when making these foods,”
he told the crowd. “However, there’s a
high demand for Pizza Fridays. The
food we serve has to meet an 80 percent approval rating and most of our
students surveyed say they like the
pizza.”
Parents mumbled under their
breath, saying most kids throw away
the tasteless pizza they’re given –
which can’t be accounted for in any
city survey. Graham said that once the
slice makes it onto a tray, it’s counted
as a “choice” the student has made for
their lunch.
School Food & Nutrition Services
representative Keith Graham.
“The only other thing they can
choose from on Fridays is a peanut
butter and jelly sandwich – of course
they’re going to pick the pizza, but
I’m not hearing anything good about
it,” another board member said.
Some were also upset that the fruit
given to their children, such as pears,
is hard and cold – and nearly inedible.
Graham noted that, regardless of
which fruit a student takes, all of the
nutritional food groups has to be present on their tray before they leave the
lunchroom.
“We’re also working on putting
more salad bars in schools where
there’s room for them. Also, our aim
this year is to use products without
any high fructose corn syrup,” he said.
“The only problem is that it’s hard to
find things like ketchup and jelly without corn syrup that’s cost effective to
our agency.”
In addition, the School Food &
Nutrition Services is going to increase
students’ access to water. “We have
water jet machines that we’re looking
to install in various schools – they’re
more sanitary than water fountains.”
Another speaker at the CEC meeting was the DOE’s Nick Farrell, who
formally introduced the new kindergarten enrollment application method.
“This new streamlined process for
2014 will help parents pick the right
kindergarten program for their child
and make the whole experience easier,” he said.
In the past, families were required
to apply in person and submit paperwork to each school of interest. As a
result, some students received multiple offers while others received no
offers until the end of the school year.
“Now, families only have to submit
one application,” he said.
The new application process begins
in January and allows families to go
online to apply for a kindergarten program. There are three ways to apply:
•Online,
using
Kindergarten
Connect at www.nyc.gov/schools/kindergarten
•In person at an enrollment office
(from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday
through Friday) and
•Over the phone by calling 718935-2400 (from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Monday through Friday)
Kindergarten Connect makes
schools in all 32 districts across the
city accessible to parents and priority
is given to students for their zoned
schools as well as those who already
have a sibling going to that public
school.
“While most parents will receive an
offer from their child’s zoned school,
the new application process helps
them explore their options,” said the
representative.
The timeline for the 2014 kindergarten admissions is as follows:
•From October through December,
before the application period, families
should learn about their zoned schools,
sign up for Gifted and Talented testing,
if interested, and review information
about their options.
•From January through February,
during the application period, families
should go to school tours and open
houses and then apply online, over the
phone or at an enrollment office.
•Finally, from April through June,
after offers go out, families should
pre-register at the school and provide
the child’s documentation and if a
school is able to offer the parent’s
child a seat from the waiting list, they
will be contacted directly.
“There are as many as 20 program
choices and if you don’t know what
your child’s zoned school is, you can
go to the DOE’s web site and put in
your address to find out,” Farrell said.
While junior high school and high
school applications are based on academics, placement for kindergarteners
is governed by the administrative
process and some may be chosen
through a random lottery.
“We conducted a pilot program earlier this year and this process worked,”
he told the crowd.
The next CEC meeting will take
place on Monday, December 2nd from
7 to 9 p.m. at 1106 East 95th Street.

What impressed me last week was that Gateway
FINALLY demolished the old Abbracciamento building that was crumbling to nothingness. Our community was begging and pleading, with whoever they
could, to have the dilapidated building torn down. I
remember when the restaurant was open and there
was a real community feel to the pier – there were
boats stationed at a dock and families would gather
for a day near the water. The feeling was just different
even though the railings were old and wooden and so
were the benches.
Now, when I go to the pier, there are foundational
improvements that need to be made despite the “modern” benches and barriers put there by Gateway years
ago. One of the things that bothers me personally
about being at the pier is not being able to sit in peace
and quiet. Yeah, I get it – it's a public place and it's not
supposed to be quiet. But why do complete strangers
feel the need to sit next to me and talk to me when I'm
trying to GET AWAY from everything? Also, there are
obnoxious visitors who blast their car stereos in the
parking lot as if they're making the pier their own personal “club.”
This brings me to the next challenge: now that
Gateway tore down the unsightly “memory” that was
once part of Canarsie's history, what can be put in that
space that will be appreciated by passersby as well as
the handful of 'obnoxious' visitors? What will accommodate the masses?
First of all, if it wasn't for Hurricane Sandy,
Canarsie Pier wouldn't have received the funds needed to demolish the abandoned restaurant (the feds
something sensible can be put at the pier.
How discouraging does this sound: You have to
have A LOT of money to lease federal property and
whatever is placed at the site has to follow Gateway's
recreational guidelines, which means your business
has to be one of “recreational nature.” You can have a
food vendor or concessionaire with this “recreational
business” but it all starts with applying for an RFP – a
Request For Proposal. The RFP will outline the nature
of your business, which probably won't even fit in the
small space that's now flattened concrete.
Let's get real! The federal government will probably make it next to impossible for someone like you
or me to invest in and lease their property. How much
will it cost to build and maintain something on federal land? Of course it will all depend on how big the
facility is and I can't imagine what would fit on that
small parcel of land. Is Gateway making it difficult to
lease that land, or are interested parties thinking it’s
not worth investing money in a waterfront location
where the visitors aren’t always courteous?
I think the feds need to open their options for what
can be put at the pier. Most people want something
simple and food-oriented there, but Gateway won't
easily allow for a sandwich or coffee shop to set up in
the small space. Come on – some of us don't want to
go to Rockaway Parkway to hunt for a snack!
Shame on Gateway, I say, for making it so difficult
to bring a quality business to one of our favorite hangout spots. Now, most of our pier memories, as well as
our childrens', will be an empty space. Thanks
Gateway!

Owner Agrees To Meet With
Stakeholders; Protest Canceled
By Sam Akhtar
One way to stop unwelcomed visitors to your home is to agree to meet
with them. Or, in the case of a controversial women’s shelter, the
owner of the land agrees to sit down
with community stakeholders postponing a protest at the eleventh hour.
The protest was scheduled to
begin at Glenwood Road and
Schenectady Avenue and a bus was
going to shuttle protestors to the
Avenue J residence of Ayal Horovitz
on Sunday, November 3rd. Horovitz
is listed as the owner of the property
at 4612 Glenwood Road – the site of
the Women’s In Need (WIN) shelter.
However, the protest was called

project that is supposed to house
more than 180 families in a fourstory building. Construction on the
site began months ago but has not
been without its share of controversy.
The Department of Buildings has
issued several stop work orders but
each time, the owner either paid fines
or reconciled concerns to resume
construction. Residents have logged
numerous complaints with 311 due
to the noise and dust that accompanied the construction.
Councilman Williams said, “We
are pleased that Mr. Horovitz has
chosen to take this step. From the
beginning, I have been clear about
the need to sit down and discuss the
details of the shelter, as it is out of
size and scope for the neighborhood.”
The site has seen its fair share of
protests. In August, residents felt
they were left out of the planning
process and weren’t informed.

More Trees Will Grow In Brooklyn
Photos and text by Linda Steinmuller
Superstorm Sandy uprooted many of Canarsie’s
trees. Some that are still standing suffered root
damage caused by salt water and sewage when the
storm surge flooded our streets just over one year
ago. To beautify our area, Project Hope, Visiting
Nurse Service of New York and the Canarsie
Recovery Coalition hosted a tree giveaway last
Sunday outside Holy Family Church, located at
9719 Flatlands Avenue.
The event was hosted in conjunction with the
New York Restoration Project and the Million
TreesNYC initiative. It provided over 100 free
trees to Canarsiens, who had their choice of four
trees: Sweetbay Magnolia, American Hornbeam,
Serviceberry or Hackberry trees.
A total of 50 events will be hosted this fall. Tree
recipients must plant their tree in one of the five
boroughs and NOT along streets, city parks, in
containers, terraces, balconies or on roofs. They
can be planted on residential lawns, commercial
properties, community gardens or around faithbased centers. Wherever the new tree owners plant
their trees, it’s sure to make our community greener and the more trees that grow in Brooklyn, the
better!

Little Old Canarsie: The Next Generation – Sailing Into The Past
By Ken A. Rogers
Captain Martin “Marty”
Nessel was a longtime resident
of Little Old Canarsie. He lived
with his wife, Louise, and son
James at 1107 East 92nd Street.
At Canarsie Pier he was known
as “Old Rubber Legs.” In 1968,
Captain Marty wrote for the
Canarsie Courier’s “Little Old
Canarsie.” He described what
life was like when the Canarsie port was home to
over 50 commercial fishing boats. In “Little Old
Canarsie” published on August 28, 1968, he wrote,
“When people start to write about Little Old
Canarsie, they tell about the great fishing off the
waters of Canarsie.”
One of the grand commercial fishing boats to sail
out of Canarsie was the Zoraya, which was owned
by Frank and Helen McAvoy. Before the Depression
of the 1930s, the Zoraya was a private yacht moored
off of the resort town of Breezy Point. When the
owners were forced to let her go, the McAvoys converted her into a commercial fishing boat.
During the first half of the 20th century, Canarsie
was home port to the finest fishing boats of the day
such as: The Fidus, Ocean City, Wildwood, Rose B,
Tambo, Pioneer, Al John, Water Island, Lillian P and
other oyster, clam and party fishing boats. When I was
a young boy, in the 1960’s, old timers at the pier still
talked about The Nancy B. She was built in 1910 and
was owned and piloted by Captain Charles Burton. At
times, it was a ferry to Breezy Point, a commercial
fishing boat, a party boat and, during World War I,
was commissioned by the Coast Guard to patrol the
waters of southeast Brooklyn. In 1925, she was relocated to Manhattan and then to Sheepshead Bay. In
Beth Israel’s Chaim
Bernstein, MD, Honored
Chaim J. Bernstein, MD, FCCP, (center) was
recently honored by Beth Israel Brooklyn. His
family joined him in accepting the prestigious
2013 Wholeness of Life Award. Above photo:

plaque as recipient of the HealthCare
Chaplaincy (HCC) 2013 Wholeness of Life

Goldsmith, Rhona Hetsrony, his mother-in-law

Bernstein, Beth Israel President Harris M.
Nagler, MD, Rev. Paul Rickert, HCC Rep Jess
Geevarhese and Rabbi Jacob Hoenig.
Photo courtesy of Beth Israel Brooklyn
the 1960’s, she was still operating and was the most
successful party boat to sail out of Brooklyn.
I recall summer days as a young boy at the pier
listening to Captain Marty and others, as they called
themselves, “Old Cronies.” They told stories about
when Canarsie was the finest fishing port on the East
Coast. They told of the hard-working fishermen of
Canarsie like John Hitcher, who at the time was
operating a rowboat concession on the west side of
the pier. Captain Marty and his old cronies might
have been getting on in age but their memories of
Izzy Bauman, captain of the Elaine B, and the crew
of the Fidus - “Dutch” Otto, Walter Rainier, Carl
Derring, Charles Rouch - and the other crews who
sailed out of Canarsie were as clear as the waters
when they were at the helm.
In 1968, when Captain Marty wrote in the
Canarsie Courier, Conrad Rank was still operating
the White Eagle and John Bonsignor piloted the Old
Pal out of Canarsie Pier. Those two boats were the
last to sail from Canarsie. Captain Marty and his fellow old cronies knew that an era was coming to an
end. In his last column, Captain Marty wrote, “I may
have spelled some names incorrectly but it is still all
about Little Old Canarsie.”
Generations come and go and they look back to
their time as the “good old days.” The days of
Captain Marty were great days for Canarsie, but
there were problems such as the Great Depression
and a growing pollution in Jamaica Bay that eventually put an end to the fishing industry in Canarsie.
Each generation has had its glory days and times of
despair. There is no reason not to believe that great
days are still ahead for Little Old Canarsie.

Canarsie Resident Goes The Distance For NYC ING Marathon
Photos and text by Dara Mormile
“Running is a victory – and it’s pure elation,” said
East 92nd Street resident Jonathan Eustache. “When
I run, it takes me to a place where I can be by myself
in my own space – and that’s one of the most rewarding parts of training.”
Eustache, 42, worked and trained hard over the
past few months so he could complete the NYC ING
Marathon last Sunday. But the race was about more
than just feeling the rush of running. The athlete is
also hoping to raise awareness and help support the
rebuilding efforts in his native Haiti, which was devastated by an earthquake in 2010. While working in
collaboration with the grassroots organization
Community2Community, he hopes the support he
received through the marathon will assist with developments that are still underway. He visited Haiti last
year, which further motivated him to run for the
cause.
He’s lived in Canarsie for almost 13 years but as a
youngster, he attended basic school in Haiti. Then,
he and his family moved to Brooklyn and they
resided in East Flatbush. Eustache attended Tilden
High School, John Jay College and then St. Francis
College before going into the military.
“In the military, we had to run two miles a day for
eight weeks,” he said. “When I came home, I
thought I naturally had to stop running. I loved playing ball and I’m a big sports fanatic, but it was only
after I suffered a back injury that I started running
again.”
He attributed his back ailment to wear and tear,
but, after trying acupuncture and pain killers, there
was one solution he decided to try: run it off.
“I was told to either have back surgery or lose
weight, so I started running again a couple of years
ago and I noticed a big difference in how I felt mentally and physically. I even lost 45 pounds in four
months,” Eustache said.
Since he is a competitor at heart, he’s been running
mini-marathons throughout the city and New Jersey
as often as he can. Small marathons, he said, helped
him build up his strength and stamina for the NYC
ING Marathon. Running the 10-mile stretch along
the Belt Parkway – from Canarsie Pier to Plumb
Beach and all the way to Cross Bay Boulevard
helped him prepare for the marathon. He woke up
every morning at about 6 to start his running routine
and stretched for about 20 to 25 minutes.
The week before the marathon, he took off from
work to go full force and prepare his body for the
ultimate test. “I’m a full time 911 operator, working
citywide, so it’s very stressful and I needed a full
week to focus on training.”
His goal for the NYC ING Marathon was to complete the stretch in four hours, but he won’t get his
final time results for another couple of weeks. He
said he felt ecstatic when he was finished with the
race even though he had a blister on his foot midrace.
“Running is a lifestyle now,” said Eustache, who
also chose to be a vegetarian three years ago as part
of his health regimen.
His advice to others who want to go the distance is
to be motivated. “I meet guys who are in their 20s
and I tell them it’s a lot of hard work and it takes
time to build yourself up for a marathon.”
Eustache proudly shows off a sweatshirt
designed to support the cause for his native
Haiti.

Do Or Die Chiefs Fight Their Way Into Playoffs With Win Over Midwood
By Jerry Del Priore
Canarsie’s regular season
came down to the final game.
If the Chiefs beat Midwood, they
would secure a playoff spot. If
not, it would be another long
offseason for the once storied
football program.
So no one could blame head
coach Kyle Allen, who endured
an arduous first year at the helm
in 2012, the rest of the team
and fans alike for wildly celebrating after outlasting the
Hornets, 22-16, Friday night at
Aviator Field in Brooklyn.
As for the elated Allen, he
feels making the postseason is
Canarsie’s chance to restart and
make some noise the rest of the
way.
“I feel great for the kids, I feel
great for the program,” Allen
said. “Now we’re here. We didn’t
quit, we didn’t back down. The
season starts over. We get to
press reset. Everybody’s 0-0;
anything can happen.”
The Chiefs (4-5) jumped out
to an 8-0 lead on a 41-yard
touchdown run by Ramshar
Clarke. But Midwood respond-
ed by returning the ensuing
kickoff to tie contest at 8.
Junior Kamari Jones Hunter’s
power running helped Canarsie
reclaim its advantage at 16-8
in the second quarter. Clarke,
who rushed for 91 yards on 13
carries, punched in his second
TD of the tilt on a 19-yard score
to increase the Chiefs’ lead to
22-8 with 1:28 left in the third
period.
But the Hornets (5-4) would
not go quietly as they grinded
out a touchdown to slice the
deficit to 22-16 with 3:50 remaining in the game. After a
quick four and out, the Chiefs
punted the ball to Midwood’s
12-yard with a little more than
two minutes to go. Much to the
Hornets dismay, however, they
had already burned all their
timeouts, and Canarsie’s defense
was able to hold on for the triumph and assure a playoff berth
as time ticked away on the clock.
Senior Justice Scott led the
Chiefs’ defense with 13 tackles
while Clarke and Jones Hunter
contributed 12 and nine, respectively, with a sack apiece.
Glenville Bell (four tackles
and a sack) and Jones Hunter
are among the PSAL’s best defenders, Allen noted. Though
he wholeheartedly believes the
talented players are grossly underrated by the rest of the league,
the second-year coach feels
they’re invaluable assets, performing a great deal of the heavy
lifting for Canarsie, especially
when it matters most.
“He’s (Jones Hunter) a hell
of a player. He’s second in the
city in sacks. Glenville Bell is
leading the city in sacks,” he
said of his stars. “And these kids
don’t get enough credit. They’re
monsters in the trenches.”
The victory garnered Canarsie the fourteenth seed and a
first playoff matchup against
number 3 Tottenville on Saturday, November 9th at noon
in Staten Island.

which kicks off this weekend.
South Shore 38, Lafayette 0
South Shore (9-0) amassed
a total of 591 yards of offense,
and only allowed 161 on defense
en route to 38-0 rout of La-
fayette, the team’s fifth shutout of the year.
Dupreme Robinson put on
a tremendous show, rushing
for 184 yards on just four carries, with two touchdowns,
and led South Shore’s defense
with nine tackles. Freshman
quarterback Jason Martin completed four of nine passes for
72 yards, with two TDs.

High CO Levels Found In Canarsie Home
Two Canarsie residents suffered
from carbon monoxide poisoning last
Thursday at a private home located at
1298 East 98th Street. Local FDNY
firefighters and paramedics responded
to the scene after a call was placed to
911 stating that one of the residents
was unconscious. FDNY EMS supervisors checked the meter readings at
the private residence and found that
the carbon monoxide levels were
excessively high – registering at over
500 ppm (parts per million). Nine
ppm is considered a hazardous environment. The two civilians, who were
taken to area hospitals, were in serious
condition with non-threatening injuries
and two firefighters had minor injuries.
As New Yorkers turned back their
clocks last weekend, the New York
City Departments of Health and
Environmental Protection (DEP)
reminded citizens to change the batteries in their carbon monoxide and
smoke detectors to help protect themselves from carbon monoxide, an
odorless, poisonous gas that can cause
serious illness and death. Exposure to
carbon monoxide can happen year
round, but the risk for carbon monoxide poisoning increases during the
heating season (October 1st to May
31st), when people begin using home
heating systems. During this time of
year, there’s a greater chance of a
heating system malfunction that could

release carbon monoxide into a home,
or residents may decide to use stoves
or other unsafe heating sources to stay
warm.
According to Dr. Thomas Farley,
New York City Health Commissioner,
“Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning include headaches, nausea,
and sleepiness. If carbon monoxide
levels are high enough, it can kill.”
As the weather gets colder, the DEP
recommends that New Yorkers have
their heating systems inspected by a
professional to ensure they are operating properly.

Shopping Strip Turns Into One “L” Of A Halloween Celebration!
On a typical Thursday afternoon Avenue L is all
about business as usual. However, October
31st – Halloween - was not an ordinary
Thursday afternoon. That’s because the
Avenue L business owners and 1Youth At A
Time Inc. transformed the shopping strip into a
“Nightmare on L Street.” There were monsters,
princesses and even a Nicky Minaj sighting.
Spiderman was spotted emerging from one of
the delis. One of the biggest “problems” of the
afternoon was when the Joker came out of a
crowded grocery store while Batman was waiting right outside! There weren’t any incidents,
but at April’s Dance-N-Feet, the owner April and
dance instructors Unysha Jones and Ashley
Coldros were not taking any chances. They
thought it would be a good idea to teach everyone how to perform Michael Jackson’s Thriller
just in case any other strange characters were
seen walking along Avenue L. The thought was
that if they could join together as one big group,
they could defend Avenue L against any poten-

Is Ninety-Five the New One Hundred?
“Timmy, how can you lie to me like that?”
“But mommy, I tell the truth 95% of the time.”
“You’re not the President of the United States,
young man. Go to your room. No dessert for you
tonight.”
“If you like your healthcare plan, you will be able
to keep your healthcare plan, 95% of the time. If
you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your
doctor, 95% of the time.”
Isn’t that, more or less, what the president told us
during the 2012 campaign? more or less? when repeal
was an issue?

times? Never? To quote our most-traveled Secretary
of State as she was testifying during the Benghazi
hearings, “What difference does it make?” (Isn’t
that what we all want to teach our kids?)
Just when most people are starting to understand
that ‘50 is the new 30,’ and ‘60 is the new 40’ and ‘70
is the new 50’, it’s now, ‘95% is the new 100%,’ i.e.
95% means the same as what 100% used to mean.
You can use them interchangeably. Depends on the
weather. Or maybe it’s all in the wrist.
Speaking in Boston last week, the president explained that 95% of Americans would be able to
keep their healthcare plans and that the remaining
‘small sliver’ would be getting a ‘much better’ plan,
that they would be getting rid of their ‘substandard’
plans, sold by those ‘rip-off’insurance companies (even
though millions of people seemed to like them and
wanted to keep them).
“It’s a good deal. Do the math. It’s a good deal.

Canarsie’s 69th Precinct stationhouse wasn’t
always located on Rockaway and Foster avenues.
The original police station was in Willett’s Hotel
(originally Lehman’s Hotel), located on the northwest corner of Conklin Avenue and East 95th Street
(which later became the site of the Knights of
Columbus Hall, which present-day Canarsiens may
recall). In 1894, a wood stationhouse was built to
replace the temporary police station in Willett’s
Hotel. That building was located on Glenwood

Road between East 94th and East 95th Streets. Not
far from the police station – on Glenwood Road
about 150 feet east of East 92nd Street - was a horse
stable belonging to the 166th Mounted Squad of the
NYPD. It’s unclear when the 69th precinct’s stable
closed but we know by 1960, it was no longer in
use and by the mid 80s, the building was torn
down. Today, the old horse barn is now occupied by
a three-story brick residential building.

Question: In an effort to snuff out smoking at
a young age, the New York City Council voted
to hike the legal age for buying cigarettes to
21 years old. Do you think this will help curtail teen smoking? Why or Why not?
“No, it won’t. If someone wants something, they
will get it. Cigarettes are
already high priced. People still buy them. The
price of an item - or the
age required to purchase
an item - will not discourage people from buying
that item. The teens will
still get the cigarettes.”
Tia B.,
Canarsie
“It won’t curtail teen
smoking. Because of peer
pressure, kids get involved
with a lot of things that
are not good for themsmoking, drugs, drinking
and street violence. To
curtail teen smoking, you
have to go much deeper
than raising the age to 21.
You have to insure that
kids have strong parental
guidance at home which
steers them away from teen
smoking.”
Fauanaude Matthews,
Spring Creek
“No, it won’t help. As
long as there are people
willing to buy cigarettes
for them, they will get the
cigarettes. And store owners don’t even proof the
kids. I’ve seen it. Plus, you
can buy loose cigarettes on
the street for fifty cents.”
Doreen Willis,
“If we raise the age,
there will be less smoking in general. And less
people will be interested
in smoking. So yes, it will
curtail teen smoking a
little bit.”

Raven Kids Show Off Their Halloween Costumes
Photos and text by Linda Steinmuller
Children from the Raven’s School, located at 1102 East 92nd Street, celebrated Halloween by dressing up in a variety of colorful costumes. The kids,
excited to show off their outfits, paraded around the block wearing everything from Superhero costumes, like Superman, Batman and Spiderman to
other popular characters such as Thomas the Train and Minnie Mouse. The staff at the Raven School said it’s their way of showing the children how
to safely enjoy the holiday. You may see and purchase more photos from the event by visiting www.canarsiecourier.com. Just click on the

Scaring Up Fun At Four Seasons
In the spirit of Halloween, the staff at Four Seasons Nursing
& Rehabilitation Center dressed up in various costumes and
provided the residents with their very own “Halloween
Costume Parade.” Staff from the Nursing, Rehab and
Recreation Department went to the units handing out candy,
providing music and putting smiles on the residents faces. A
good time was had by all!
Later on in the afternoon, residents, family members and
staff were treated to a “Halloween themed” musical entertain-
ment and costume contest. Residents were able to sing along
and tap their feet to familiar tunes and get a chance to judge
the best costume worn by staff and guests. Music was provided by Michael Harley and Jennifer. Thanks to all the staff, volunteers and family members who dressed up for the events,
made it a success and put smiles on the faces of residents. The
Halloween Parade and Costume Party was coordinated by the
Recreation Department.

Beach: Moving
Gerritsen Beach Residents Stitching Through The Storm
Photos and text by Linda Steinmuller
Superstorm Sandy changed Gerritsen Beach forever. The worst storm in the city’s history destroyed
homes, cars, trees and businesses. Discussions
about the superstorm often revolve around the physical aspect of the devastation – how much water
flooded your basement or the personal possessions
you may have lost. But the hurricane also took an
emotional and spiritual toll on those who suffered
the traumatic events of October 29, 2012. To help
with the emotional distress caused by Sandy, Project
Hope and Visiting Nurse Service of New York hosted “Stitches of our Success” at the Gerritsen Beach
branch of the Brooklyn Public Library last week – a
day after the one-year anniversary of the hurricane.
Gerritsen Beach resident Gina Wasson attended
the event with her two daughters and said, “The program was great. It really makes you feel better and
it’s great to have an ear to listen.”
All ages benefitted from “Stitches of our
Success,” from children as young as four-year-old
Jamie Wasson to teenagers and adults. Miranda
Gescheit, an 11th grade student at Edward R.
Murrow High School, said the storm brought the
community much closer together and that the volunteer fire department worked hard with rescue efforts
when the storm struck.
Project Hope crisis counselors invited participants to draw pictures and write a poem or a story to
reflect their experiences with Sandy. Each attendee
was given a cuddly teddy bear to take home with
them. Once everyone’s personal mural was com-
pleted, they were stitched together on a giant quilt
that is on display in the library.
Project Hope has been an integral part of the
healing process since the storm hit Gerritsen Beach.
The organization offers support, information and
resource linkage to help survivors with their recovery. Their services are free of charge. According to
Project Hope, people handle stressful events differently. Stress reactions can appear immediately after
a traumatic event or may not appear for weeks or
even months later - Recovery doesn’t wear a watch.
If you would like to talk about lingering reactions to
Hurricane Sandy, call Project Hope at 718-8886950 or 1-800-LIFENET, a free confidential
helpline for New York City residents, available
24/7.

Adult Vaccination: Protect Your Health
CDC recommends people with asthma, COPD, or other conditions that
affect the lungs get a yearly influenza
(flu) vaccine and a pneumococcal vaccine, once as an adult before age 65
years of age and again at age 65.
•People with type 1 or type 2 diabetes have a higher risk of Hepatitis B
virus infection. Hepatitis B can be
spread through sharing of blood glucose meters, finger stick devices, or
other diabetes care equipment such as
insulin pens. Adults with diabetes
(type 1 or type 2) ages 19 through 59
should receive the Hepatitis B vaccine
as soon as possible after being diagnosed with diabetes. If you are 60
years or older and have diabetes, talk
to your doctor to see if you should get
the vaccine.
•Diabetes, either type 1 or type 2,
can weaken the immune system's ability to fight the flu. People with diabetes, even if well managed, are more
likely than those without diabetes to
have complications from the flu such
as pneumonia, that can lead to hospitalization.
