BY ALEX MITCHELLThere hasn’t been a dry eye
on the corner of 183rd Street and Bathgate Avenue since the tragic death of 15-year-old Lesandro ‘Junior’ Guzman-Feliz on Wednesday, June 20.
A memorial that started with several candles and post-ers in front of Zesarina Gro-cery, at 526 E. 183rd Street, has rapidly grown into a shrine in less than a week.
Thousands have come from all over lighting candles, leav-

“We all love you, we never met, God bless your family and friends,” one message read.
A couple came from north-ern New Jersey on Monday, June 25 as soon as they heard the news.
Others came from all around the borough to the memorial. “I have a 15-year-old son that looks like Ju-
nior, what if that was my kid they got?” One father yelled in grief.
While the outcry for ‘Jus-tice for Junior’ has reached a national level, Junior’s fam-ily and friends are in a state of utter disbelief the past few days.

FIRE UP THE GRILL
BRONX TIMES REPORTER, JUNE 29-JULY 5, 20184 BTR
BY SARAH VALENZUELAAs the smoke clears, a new estab-
lishment may soon replace Vapor Lounge.
At the Community Board 10 full board meeting on Thursday, June 21, a resolution was passed to send a let-ter to the State Liquor Authority to al-low Vapor Lounge to change to Karma Lounge & Tapas Bar.
The letter was sent before Vapor Lounge ownership was scheduled to meet with the SLA on Wednesday, June 27.
“Vapor Lounge cannot exist as it has in the past,” said CB 10 district manager, Matt Cruz, in reference to the community’s frustration with the establishment’s violent past, like the March 7 altercation that left one pa-tron slashed and beaten unconscious.
The incident proved to be the last straw for the community, with many calling for the Throggs Neck bars’ complete closure or liquor license re-vocation.
On March 15, Vapor Lounge’s owner, Troy Perez, spoke before the board and said the hookah bar would change their method of operation and restructure their business.
An earlier attempt in May to get CB 10 approval for the Karma Lounge & Tapas Bar, ended in a 15-15 tie vote with three abstentions, because some members of the board thought Vapor Lounge was applying for a new liquor license.
Vapor Lounge ownership team had stayed true to their word since then, complying with community board sug-gestions.
They even purchased new store sig-nage, which the board believed was a good faith act to convince them the business was going in a new direction, according to the letter.
While the new Karma Lounge & Tapas Bar would still operate under the existing Vapor Lounge liquor li-
cense and with the same ownership, the business would be a completely re-structured and revamped restaurant.
Karma Lounge & Tapas Bar would not offer hookah anymore. It was blamed for drawing Vapor Lounge’s troublesome clientele.
Instead, the new business would install a kitchen to serve bar food, in-clude karaoke and live music, and even present comedy shows.
“At the end of the day, the board supported the community,” said Cruz of the majority vote to send the letter that collectively supported the brand new establishment. “We’re happy to see Vapor Lounge change, that’s for sure.”
The community board letter and approval is only advisory. The SLA ul-timately has the fi nal say in whether Vapor Lounge at 3758 E. Tremont Av-enue can become Karma Lounge & Tapas Bar, according to Cruz.
The Bronx Times was not notifi ed of the fi nal decision on whether Vapor Lounge would be permitted to become the Karma Tapas Bar before the story printed.
Matt Cruz said the community board would know of the offi cial deci-sion as early as Monday, July 2.
“Vapor Lounge, or whatever it becomes, will always have a tar-get, [on its back]” said Cruz who ex-plained the board would continue to monitor the establishment closely if the change to Karma Lounge & Tapas Bar is not approved and Vapor Lounge remains.
The 45th Precinct had not re-sponded to any calls at Vapor Lounge since its last incident in March, ac-cording to Cruz, who has been in con-tact with the precinct about the bar.
It has changed its previous method of operation since the March alterca-tion by closing earlier weekdays and weekends and changing its security team.

program is based on the premise that violence is a public health issue that can be treated
like any other disease. The way in which violence spreads and is transmitted from person
to person resembles a contagious disease. SUV has the advantage of being the first hospital-based model
of the Cure Violence Program. The hospital’s designated team is able to respond and provide specialized
care to patients who have been shot, stabbed, or assaulted. Ongoing follow-up provides medical and social
services and identifies productive alternatives to high-risk behavior and violence. Patients who are high-risk
and eligible for the community-based services are connected with outreach workers who provide intensive,
long-term follow-up in the community to prevent future incidents of violence.

NEW Associate of Science in Medical Assistant
BY PATRICK ROCCHIOOne of the borough’s most
important cultural institu-tions has a new administra-tor.
The board of the Bronx Museum of the Arts selected Deborah Cullen-Morales, cur-rently the director and curator at the Miriam and Ira D. Wal-lach Art Gallery at Columbia University, to lead the organi-zation beginning the week of Monday, July 9.
The Bedford Park commu-nity member fi lls a vacancy that was created when Holly Block, the previous executive director of the organization from 2006 to 2017, passed.
Cullen-Morales oversaw the expansion of the Colum-bia gallery, and prior to that worked at the El Museo del Barrio in Manhattan.
“We were looking for a candidate who could imme-diately lead the Bronx Mu-seum forward and advance our mission for the future,” said Joseph Mizzi, chairman of the Bronx Museum of the Arts board of trustees, add-ing that the board recog-nized her for actively engag-ing with the communities

in which she works and for a strong focus on African-American, Caribbean and Latino art.
Cullen-Morales said that she had been visiting the Bronx Museum ever since she moved to New York in the 1980s.
“I am a huge fan and sup-porter of the Bronx Museum of the Arts,” said Cullen-Mo-rales, adding “It is a crucial institution in our cultural fab-ric here in New York, and as a
Bronx resident it is even more important to me.”
Since her focus in her own artistic career was Caribbean, Latino and African-American arts, Cullen-Morales said that she thought the position would be a good match to her own in-terests.
“My work has tended to be rooted in community, and of-ten with larger New York City, national and sometimes inter-national impact, but always starting with the immediate
community,” she said. The new executive director
said that she still has more to learn about the borough, but she said she already has a lot of familiarity with the mu-seum and its initiatives.
She plans on continuing ed-ucational programs and long-standing collaboration with local schools that teach grades K-12 students, and perhaps look to expand such collabora-tion, said Cullen-Morales.
Free admission to the mu-
seum was championed by Block, and it is something that she plans on continuing, said Cullen-Morales.
The museum has plans to repurpose and renovate a for-mer synagogue building that is part of its location at 1040 Grand Concourse, said the new executive director.
Another initiative she plans on being at the forefront of is building an endowment for the museum, which has never had a signifi cant dona-tion-driven cash reserve.
Building an endowment will be useful so that the Bronx Museum of the Arts’ fi nacial needs don’t have to ”start at zero” every year, she said.
Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr. said in a statement that he was delighted that Cul-len-Morales would be joining the museum, which he stated brings outstanding arts and education programming to the borough.
“As Deborah is a Bronx res-ident, I know she will bring her commitment to our borough to her role as the museum’s next leader,” said Diaz. “We all look forward to the great arts ini-tiatives to come.”

TRIPLE SHOOTING IN CASTLE HILL
41 Precinct Sunday, June 24 at 5:08 a.m. -- Cops got an
emergency call of a man shot at 858 Beck Street in-side of Rainy Park. When they got to the scene, they found a 25-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the head. EMS transported the man to Lincoln Hos-pital. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
45 PrecinctMonday, June 11 at 12:10 a.m. -- A robbery
was reported at the Zerega Avenue station’s south-bound platform on the IRT #6 line, co-located within Transit District #12. A 47-year-old man was involved in a verbal dispute which escalated into a physical confrontation with four individuals. The victim was assaulted by the four individuals, who took his wal-let by force. The wallet contained credit cards. They fled the location on foot on Zerega Avenue. The vic-tim sustained minor injuries to his face and right elbow and refused medical attention at the scene. Three of the individuals are between approximately 16-years-old to 21-years-old.
48 Precinct Wednesday, June 20 at 11:40 p.m. -- Cops
responded to a 911 call of an assault in progress in front of 526 E. 183rd Street. Officers who arrived on the scene determined that a 15-year-old man was involved in a dispute with a group of men in front of the location, prior to being stabbed in the neck. The suspects fled the location. The victim ran to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he died.
49 PrecinctMonday, June 18 at 4:40 a.m. -- Cops got
a report of a robbery that took place on a stair-case to the Pelham Parkway station on the IRT #2 and 5 lines. A woman asked the victim, a 61-year-old man, for money as he climbed the staircase. The victim walked past her and con-tinued to climb the staircase. At that point, a sec-ond individual, described as a dark-skinned man with a beard, followed the victim up the stairs and punched him in the face several times before dragging him downstairs to the street. Once they reached the street, both the woman and the man punched the 61-year-old some more, attempting to remove a bag from around his shoulders. The victim struggled against both the woman and the man until a passerby intervened and separated the two parties. The two individuals managed to take $20 from the victim’s pants pocket before the incident was over, and they fled on foot on White Plains Road.
Police need your help solving a fatal triple shooting in Castle Hill. According to the NYPD, several shots were fi red in front of 620 Castle Hill Avenue on Thursday, June 21 at 9:40 a.m. Castle Hill Houses residents Mustafa Tarver, 33, Christopher Alleyne, 33 and Arileida Jimenez, 45, were fatally shot by an unidentifi ed gunman. The gunman allegedly approached Tarver and Alleyne and began fi ring at them. Both Tarver and Alleyne suffered gunshot wounds to their heads. Police confi rmed that Tarver was the intended target. Jimenez was fatally shot in his torso. The victims were rushed to Jacobi Hospital where they were pronounced deceased. Surveillance footage cap-tured the gunman wearing a black colored hat, camoufl age shorts and a grey colored long sleeve shirt over a t-shirt with black sneakers fl eeing on foot towards Randall Avenue. No arrests have been made in this ongoing investigation. Anyone with in-formation is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls are kept strictly confi dential.

BronxNet will be on lo-cation at Fordham Plaza on Saturday June 30, providing live coverage of the fi rst-ever Bronx Night Market. The sta-tion’s on-site television studio setup will also provide oppor-tunities for Bronxites to get an inside look at television production and to learn about how they can become indepen-dent producers in their own right.
The Bronx Night Market is a collaboration between the quarterly magazine Edible Bronx and the Bronx-based creative agency BLOX. The monthly, free open-air festi-
val features food vendors, ar-tisans, merchants and perfor-mances by notable artists.
“We’re excited to have Bronx Net at the fi rst ever Bronx Night Market, as the station is a true representa-tion of the Bronx. The inter-active live studio will be an unexpected addition to the market, showcasing all forms of Bronx fl avor by way of food, drink, art, media, and tech-nology,” said Amanda Celes-tino of Edible Bronx.
Marco Shalma of the BLOX Creative Agency stated: “BronxNet, led by Michael Max Knobbe, embodies what
the Bronx truly is; strong, am-bitious, and innovative, so this collaboration with the Bronx Night Market, makes sense in every aspect, as we proudly present all the good that our community has to offer.”
“We are pleased to par-ticipate in the Bronx Night Market with interactive mul-timedia demos and special in-depth coverage on BronxNet, in what’s sure to be a great ex-travaganza of food, music and culture,” said BronxNet ex-ecutive director Michael Max Knobbe.
BronxNet is the indepen-dent not-for-profi t organiza-
tion serving the people of the Bronx with media production training, access to technol-ogy, and television channels. BronxNet programs six chan-nels – 33, 34, 35, 36, 37 and 38 on the Verizon Fios system and six channels – 67, 68, 69, 70, 951 and 952 – on the Optimum sys-tem in the Bronx.
BronxNet’s ultra-local pro-gramming helps connect the Bronx with the world while our training programs and partnerships are a part of com-munity development through media.

Dear editor,I saw an article about the
BX M9 and the terrible service it provided back in 2012. Un-fortunately six years later, the Throggs Neck community is still facing this awful service. I commute to the city everyday from Randall and Clarence av-enues and I can honestly say the bus is always late. How-ever the lateness going to the city doesn’t compare to com-ing back home.
Today is a prime example of why the service is awful. A group of us waited for over 40 minutes for a bus to come, three of the scheduled buses never arrived. This puts a real damp spot on the day, because for us Throggs Neckers this is our only way to get back home.
Eric D’Armetta
An ongoingtraffic issue
Dear editor,Read article ‘Locust Point
wants dangerous I-95 exit ramp fi xed’, June 24, 2018, and I totally agree with Maria Guzzone.
In the May 26-June 1, 2011 issue, I also wrote a letter, subject: ‘Exit needs fi x’, which stated: If possible can you get this message to the Throggs Neck Home Owners Associa-tion. It pertains to an article written by Lynn Gerbino, on visibility issues as you exit to the left off Harding Avenue exit off the Throgs Neck Ex-pressway.
The hedges are only one contributing factor in visibil-ity limitations to oncoming traffi c. The white stop line is three-feet back from the cor-ner. Drivers have to roll their cars 6 to 8 feet past the line to see oncoming traffi c. The green fence, put up by the con-struction crew, is the other ob-stacle.
The main issue is poor driving habits. Drivers do not stop, they roll through it. On
any given day 25 or more driv-ers ignore the left and right stop signs off the exit, and there are always near miss accidents.
It is common for those liv-ing across from the exit to hear the screeching tires and the blaring of horns, or the oc-casional impact of a cars col-liding.
I would also like to thank all those that were involved in improving the appearance and condition of the exit from what it was months ago, but more needs to be done.
In Issue July 4-10 2014, ‘Obey Traffi c laws’ I wrote about drivers going up the exit ramps, running the stop sign, and speeding up and down the Throgs Neck Expressway Ser-vice Road between Pennyfi eld and Harding avenues, which continues to this date. The vis-ibility of state police cars once in awhile helps.

A nicerNYCHA
Dear editor,Tough times call for cre-
ative thinking and innovative
solutions at the NYC Housing Authority. Thankfully, a new study from the Citizens Hous-ing & Planning Council spot-lights a path forward for NY-CHA and its tenants.
CHPC looked at a pilot pro-gram that, through a public-private partnership, made $80 million in renovations at six NYCHA developments encom-passing 874 units, and intro-duced new management struc-tures. Renovations included both facades and interiors, improving landscaped areas, new boilers, elevators and se-curity upgrades at the build-ings.
The results show not only improved physical quality of the buildings, but a direct im-pact on quality of life for resi-dents at these developments. Tenants in pilot buildings felt safer, day-to-day management was more responsive and that emergency repairs were fi xed more rapidly.
This pilot shows that where you have funding, you have so-lutions, and that innovation can yield success. Moving for-ward, NYCHA should explore more public-private partner-ships that will make neces-sary capital for improvements
available while preserving af-fordability. It’s a win for NY-CHA, their partners, and most important of all, the tenants.

BY PATRICK ROCCHIOA new bridge is being
planned to carry a major ar-tery through Pelham Bay Park.
The NYC Department of Transportation presented preliminary plans to build a new Shore Road Bridge over the Hutchinson River begin-ning in 2022, according to a presentation offi cials made to Community Board 10’s Municipal Services Commit-tee on Wednesday, June 13.
The presentation included several design options, and seemed to lean towards a double- leaf bascule draw-bridge that is taller than the present bridge linking Shore Road and Pelham Parkway over the river, according to attendees.
The current Pelham Bridge is over 100-years-old and is need of replacement, with the DOT offi cials indi-cating that building a taller bridge would necessitate less need to open and close the bridge for nautical traffi c.
CB 10’s district manager, Matt Cruz, said that board members were very pleased that DOT came to the com-
DOT reveals plans for new Shore Road draw bridgemunity for input early on.
“The board members were certainly pleased that the city took it upon itself to come before us years before there would be any action,” said Cruz, adding “This was a nice example of good plan-ning and good communica-tion.”
Cruz said that DOT will be back before CB 10 to fur-ther discuss the project as the start date of summer 2022 approaches, and that the board will have a vote on the project because the new con-struction will require a Uni-form Land Use Review Proce-dure.
Bob Bieder, a member of the CB 10 Municipal Service Committee, said he was im-pressed that offi cials came before the board during the planning process.
“They came to us before anything is fi nalized, which is very unusual, and the DOT Bridges people told us this is the way they are going to do things from now on,” said Bieder.
Bieder said that ULURP would be required because alienation of parkland is nec-
essary.The board would like
to know how the alienated parkland would be replaced, said Bieder, adding that he is hoping that the land can be replaced, as is required by
state law, with new parkland either in or near Pelham Bay Park.
The new bridge is ex-pected to follow a path that would be alongside the cur-rent Pelham Bridge, said Bie-
der, which would be expected to also limit any disruptions due to the construction.
Barbara Dolensek, City Is-land Civic Association vice president, attended the June 13 presentation, which was developed by DOT and engi-neering fi rm Hardesy and Hanover.
“This bridge is one of the busiest bridges in the city,” said Dolensek, who added more and more openings are required because of large an-tennas that are sported on many seafaring vessels.
The new bridge is ex-pected to be wider with bet-ter access for bicyclists and pedestrians, said Dolensek, with the presentation show-ing a preliminary design for a proposed cross section of the bridge including two 11-foot-wide lanes for motor vehicle traffi c.
She too was pleased that the city came to the commu-nity very early in the design process.
According to the DOT pre-sentation, the bridge replace-ment is expected to cost $250 million with construction ex-pected to take three years.
Plans are being developed to replace the more than 100-year-old Pelham Bridge in Pelham Bay Park with a new Shore Road Bridge starting in 2022. Community News Group / Patrick Rocchio

BY PATRICK ROCCHIOA true community leader
described as a resource and advocate for her neighbors was honored with a street co-naming.
Louella Hatch, a woman who had a legacy of service that spanned a lifetime, was honored with a street co-naming outside of the build-ing where she lived since the early 1970s in Fordham on Wednesday, June 13.
The street corner in front of 2200 Tiebout Avenue at East 182nd Street was named after Hatch. It was unveiled as friends, family, commu-nity members and commu-nity leaders looked on.
Hatch was known in her community as the ‘mayor of Tiebout Avenue,’ according to multiple sources.
She hosted National Night Out Against Crime events, served as president of the 46th Precinct Community Coun-cil, started a play street and a block association, and held toy and clothing drives dur-ing the holidays, said friends and family.
“We’re here to celebrate a legacy of public service that

Friends and family of Louella Hatch gathered to celebrate a street co-naming in her memory at East 182nd Street and Tiebout Avenue. Councilman Ritchie Torres, Councilwoman Vanessa Gibson, District Attorney Darcel Clark, police offi cials from the 46th Precinct and community leaders joined in the celebration.

spanned a lifetime,” said Tor-res in his remarks adding “When I think of Louella, the word that comes to mind is ‘happiness,’ and happiness, in the original sense of the word, did not refer to an emo-tion or a feeling; it meant the fullness and fulfi llment of a life well lived.”
Torres said that he con-sidered Hatch someone with a moral authority that only comes from a lifetime of pub-lic service.
Tisha Hatch-Loveless, Hatch’s daughter, said his mother grew up in Mobile, AL and was active in the civil rights movement, moving to New York when she was 18-years-old.
“She was always a fi rm be-liever in helping people who needed help,” said Hatch-Love-less. “That was something that was instilled in us.”
Hatch-Loveless said that her mom began her com-munity activism by operat-
ing a food pantry where she gave out fi ve-pound blocks of cheese and three-pounds squares of butter to anyone who needed help, regard-less of whether the recipients were working.
This was at a time when there were strict require-ments that prohibited work-ing-poor people from receiv-ing food donations, explained Hatch-Loveless.
She later began to provide assistance concerning hous-
ing and getting youth regis-tered for summer jobs pro-grams, said Hatch-Loveless.
Her daughter said she was one of the fi rst people in the Bronx to host a National Night Out Against Crime event.
She also fought against bad landlords on behalf of senior citizens who were concerned about losing their homes un-til her passing in 2017, and her daughter said she would have been thrilled to have a street co-named in her honor.
“I really wish (she could see the street sign), even if it was just for fi ve minutes,” said Hatch-Loveless when asked about what her mom would think of the honor.
One friend of Hatch, Rev. Kim Osorio, said that the NYS Chaplain Task Force made Hatch an honorary chaplain for her service to the commu-nity.
“Chaplains play different roles as advocates for people,” said Osorio, explaining that electeds and police offi cials said that Hatch “spoke the truth whether they wanted to hear it or not, if it was in the best interest of her commu-nity.”

BY PATRICK ROCCHIOAs plans for the complete
reconstruction of the Rod-man’s Neck range continue to develop, perennial concerns about lead contamination have resurfaced.
Three NYC Department of Corrections offi cers who were assigned to the NYPD’s Rod-man’s Neck pistol range were taken off the job after they tested either high or border-line-high for lead levels, ac-cording to sources with knowl-edge of the situation.
The DOC areas of the fa-cility where ammunition is stored are being tested and cleaned, said the sources.
To the best of their knowl-edge, nothing like this has ever occurred before, accord-ing to a DOC source.
The DOC uses only a small portion of the range, accord-ing to sources.
Barbara Dolensek, City Is-land Civic Association vice president, said that those liv-ing nearby have been con-cerned for years about levels of lead in the outdoor areas of the range because of how it could affect air and water in nearby communities.
Lead level concerns at Rodman’s Neck pistol rangeDolensek, a longtime ac-
tivist who has also advocates for sound abatement at the range, said that high levels of lead were found at the range in 1989, prompting a lawsuit by a group called Soundwatch and the New York City Coastal Fisherman’s Association in 1992 to get remediation in com-pliance with the federal Clean Water Act.
The lawsuit was settled in 1994, and the city began a $10 million lead remediation proj-ect to clean berms (where bul-lets are fi red) that was begun in 1995 and completed in 1996, said Dolensek.
“Subsequently, we were told that this (cleaning) was happening regularly,” she said.
She noted that another city contract to clean lead at the Rodman’s Neck range was awarded in 2006 to MT2, a range service provider.
This development comes of the heels of news that a ar-chitect has been selected for a $275 million planned recon-struction of range, and the re-cent selection for the project of design fi rm Smith-Miller & Hawkinson.
According to Bob Bieder, 45th Precinct Community Council president, another meeting between NYPD of-fi cials and the community council is being planned for late July to discuss the overall reconstruction and the plans for sound abatement, a top pri-ority of nearby communities on Eastchester Bay.
Bieder said that the issue with the high lead level was a separate one from the issue of noise remediation, with sound baffl ing expected to be included in the overall recon-struction project.
Based on his knowledge, Bieder said that while the con-tract had been awarded for the design, it has not yet been signed.
The precinct council board meeting with the police offi -cials and the contractor was scheduled later in July so that if the contracts are not fi nal-ized, the meeting can be easily rescheduled, said Bieder.
“The tentatively sched-uled meeting will be a meet and greet with the contrac-tor to fi nd out more about the project, what is going to hap-pen with staging, and all the
other things that have to be addressed on such a huge project,” said Bieder. “All the stakeholders have been in-vited.”
Bieder added that he also
wants to ensure funding for the sound remediation at the range is budgeted to put to rest rumors that funding for sound remediation may not be avail-able.

BY ALEX MITCHELLTalk about making a fash-
ion statement. Edwin Reyes is a 19-year-old from Hunts Point with an eye for style and social justice.
Edwin began his serious interest in design and fashion when he was a sophomore in high school.
Naturally, the Bronx High School for the Visual Arts stu-dent took interest in all types of creative art at fi rst, espe-cially painting.
“Around that time my friend invited me to a fashion club and at the time I liked fashion but didn’t know much about sewing or any of that, af-ter the fi rst time I went I just fell in love with it,” Reyes said.
It wasn’t until a lady from a local church lent Edwin her sewing machine that the de-signer could begin to master his craft.
“For those six months it was like a crash course,” Reyes said.
After much petitioning with his school, Edwin con-vinced the administration to allow him to put on his own ten-piece fashion show.
This was Edwin’s fi rst
A Bronx fashion designer’s clothing sends a messagechance to show off his style of ‘minimal with a twist.’
“I love using basic colors and patterns,” Edwin said as he showed off a blue jumpsuit he made with a pearl waist-line.
The two colors he loves to work with most are both red and black.
Since Edwin’s high school days his creative style has grown astronomically.
Now, he’s created his own brand called “FINE by Edwin Reyes.”
Most recently Edwin put on a ‘FINE by Edwin Reyes Sum-mer Collection Presentation Fashion Show’ on Monday, June 11 at Mott Haven Bar and Grill.
He’s in it for more than the fashion, though.
“I want my brand to repre-sent things that are important to me,” Reyes said.
“Women’s empowerment, Puerto Rico, and equality are all represented by FINE,” the designer added.
Reyes went on to mention how he uses women of color to model his clothing, which according to Edwin is some-thing not widely seen or done
in the fashion industry. “Also I don’t look for size
zero models with perfect skin that would be in a Victoria’s Secret Show. I want this to be by real people for real people,” Reyes added.
As a proud Puerto Rican de-scendant, Reyes looks to work on projects dedicated to those lost in Hurricane Maria.
“I would love to make a jacket in memory to those that
suffered from Maria, jackets are something I particularly love to make and work with,” Reyes said.
He also mentioned he wants to make a similar jacket design template with phrases and slogans pertaining to is-sues found within minority communities.
“My brand is more than a brand, I want to use it as a political icon,” Reyes said. “I
want to represent equality and oppose bigotry with FINE,” he added.
If all goes according to plan, Edwin would grow his brand in New York, ending up with some real estate in Midtown while keeping the brand Bronx based. For now, he’s focusing on his latest pop-up shop at Charlie’s Bar and Kitchen in Mott Haven on Thursday, July 12.

BY SARAH VALENZUELAAll nine public pools in the
borough have opened for the summer.
As children, parents and other Bronxites alike lined up to be the fi rst in the water on Wednesday, June 27, the patrons of the Mapes Pool in East Tremont were treated to some new sights.
The pool had been en-hanced and redecorated as part of the NYC Parks pilot program ‘Cool Pools NYC,’ with bold and attractive colors and signage that could be spot-ted blocks away.
Though the day was cloudy and gray, the energy and the atmosphere at the Mapes Pool could be heard and felt from afar as kids screamed in de-light and played in the beauti-ful waterpark.
“I love the colors, it’s so cre-ative,” said 7-year-old David Rivera before he jumped back in the pool.
The new designs of the pool area include brightly colored orange, yellow and blue mu-rals of ice cream cones, giant sunglasses, beach balls and even a penguin.
In case any of these designs aren’t enough of a harbinger
Cool Pools NYC program at Mapes Poolof the season, a giant mural of the sun was also painted on the wall.
“They made the pool look like it’s actually summer,” said 11-year-old Davis Ken-neth Amir Walker as he took a break from playing in the water.
Along with the new designs and paintings, the pool also received some new furniture, including new sun umbrellas, new lounge chairs and even cabana-style shading, which many parents tested out for the fi rst time while keeping an eye on their children.
“I love this and all these new chairs,” said David’s mom, Judy Rivera, as she lied poolside on one of the reclined chaises while watching her son.
Mapes Pool was one of fi ve pools in underserved neigh-borhoods citywide chosen to take part in the program.
The area has over a dozen schools and a youth and com-munity center nearby. The pool serves thousands of chil-dren each season, according to Community Board 6 district manager, John Sanchez.
“The enhancements really bring more life to the area,”
said Sanchez in a phone dis-cussion about the pool.
It had initially been con-structed in the early 1970s as a ‘vest-pocket pool,’ similar to the ‘vest-pocket parks’ of the time which were built on empty lots for underserved city kids, according to NYC Parks.
Prior to the current aes-thetic modifi cations, the pool had remained virtually un-changed in appearance since it was built more than 45 years ago.
“The Mapes Pool enhance-ment shows that NYC Parks Commissioner Mitchell Silver and Mayor de Blasio are en-gaged in providing our com-munity with the best of the best of what they deserve,” said Bronx Parks Commis-sioner Iris Rodriguez-Rosa during the opening day of the Mapes Pool.
For now Mapes Pool will be the only one in the Cool Pools NYC program in the Bronx and plans have not been made to enhance the remaining public pools in the borough, according to NYC Parks.
Some of the other programs at Mapes and all the boroughs public pools include a part-
nership with the SchoolFood Lunch Program, according to Rodriguez-Rosa.
All the borough’s pools will serve free breakfast and lunch to all kids 18-years-old and
younger.The Mapes Ballfi eld is also
scheduled for reconstruc-tion and renovation, a project slated for completion by Octo-ber 2018.

plastic bags, overcame being outspent 18 to 1 per vote from the establishment-based Crowley. “It’s no secret he’s very well fi nanced,” Ocasio-Cortez said days before her fi rst primary election ever. “But people don’t know him, es-pecially the Bronx, so we aren’t scared of big money because we have big peo-ple,” the Parkchester native added.
Without the funds available to take out major ads like Crowley, she turned to social media.
She ended up running a cost effi -cient, savvy social media campaign that went viral catching the attention of both her district and the nation.
Ocasio-Cortez, a Bernie Sanders or-ganizer, has lived a humble life. Her fa-ther passed away during the great re-cession of the late 2000s; so, it was up to Alexandria and her mother to fi nd ways to get by.
“I had to bartend, I had to wait ta-bles, I know what it’s like to be a work-ing class New Yorker,” Ocasio-Cortez said as she criticized Crowley for not even living within his district any more. “I grew up uninterested in poli-tics, I thought it was just a local politi-cal machine,” she added.
“Now we’re going to organize the community, we will have town halls, focus on housing improvement, stop forecloses, rent increases and forced rezoning,” the 28-year-old said. “We can’t wash our hands of these local is-sues, it’s time we bring the fi ght home,” she added.
But prior to the next battle, Ocasio-Cortez wants to take a little breather and catch up on some much needed sleep.
While Alexandria and her crew were celebrating her dramatic vic-tory on Tuesday, late endorser and gu-bernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon came to congratulate her win.
“I think she’s an amazing human, I think she’s run an amazing race. She shows that when you oppose the status quo even when it seems like a moun-tain, what matters in the end is how you speak to voters and that they can put their trust in you,” Nixon said. “It makes me feel doubly excited for my

own campaign and makes me excited for New York and United States that we have so many progressive women run-ning for offi ce and being embraced,” Nixon proudly added.
Ocasio-Cortez’s platform includes the abolishment of ICE, Medicare ex-pansion, free public college tuition and immigration reform.
Meanwhile on the other side of the East River in Queens, Crowley faced the music that his political career was for the time being on hold, by signing tunes to his supporters, while strum-ming his guitar.
He dedicated his performance of Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Born to Run’ to his Democrat competitor that ousted the powerful congressman during his fi rst primary challenge.
Crowley later released a statement congratulating Ocasio-Cortez, stating, “This is why we must come together. We will only be able to stop Donald Trump and the Republican Congress by working together as a united Demo-cratic Party.”
Come this November, Ocasio-Cor-tez will face GOP candidate Anthony Pappas in the general election hoping to complete one of the most unexpected political spoils in American history.
Congressman Eliot Engel, who also represents the Bronx, easily defeated his three challengers.

An online petition calling for more police presence at a traffi c circle lead-ing to City Island has gained much at-tention since it was released.
The petition was a response to the decades-old traffi c problem the area has faced as the traffi c circle almost resembles a parking lot from May to September because of the increased number of visitors to the island.
“It’s a community and a safety is-sue,” said City Islander and creator of the petition, Dan Treiber, of the traffi c problem.
Part of the issue with the traffi c cir-cle is how it forces cars trying to get onto the island, to merge from three lanes into one.
The congestion slows down cars as they approach the traffi c circle.
“The traffi c is bad for business,” continued Treiber, who also owns Dan’s Parent’s House, a vintage store on City Island. “If people can’t get to the businesses here, stores and restau-rants suffer.”
Treiber initially created the pe-tition on the website Change.org on Monday, June 18.
The online document started gain-ing traction after it was posted to Fa-cebook on Thursday, June 21 and less than one week after that, the petition had over 300 signatures and counting.
The 45th Precinct regulates traffi c at the circle and on City Island during the weekends due to the heavy traffi c to and from the area during the sum-mer months and other big holidays, ac-cording to Sergeant Edward Lawyer from the 45th Precinct’s Traffi c De-partment.
However, the uptick in warmer weather tourism usually starts earlier than steady traffi c regulation does, ac-cording to Treiber and other City Is-
landers.Sergeant Lawyer said his team is
well aware of the island’s traffi c and congestion issues.
“We are prepared,” said Lawyer of the concerns and explained the traf-fi c issues were nothing they couldn’t handle.
Lawyer also confi rmed that the is-land, as well as the rest of the precinct, would see additional police offi cers soon as a result of the new NCO pro-gram.
When Treiber approached the City Island Civic Association about his petition at their meeting on June 26, more than 50 people stood in support of his efforts with various others mut-tering about their frustration with the traffi c problem.
“I’ve once seen traffi c backed up all the way to the Bronx Victory Memorial (in Pelham Park),” said City Island res-ident, Teddy Monte. Monte also owns the Grindstone Equity Group offi ce located at the start of City Island Av-enue and said he sees the traffi c build-ing daily.
“You can easily be stuck in traffi c for one hour when it’s really backed up,” Monte continued.
Another resident, John Mitchell, who commutes to and from Manhat-tan for work, said the traffi c can some-times be worse than the traffi c he faces in Manhattan.
The petition will be sent to NYPD administration and the mayor’s offi ce to provide the 45th Precinct with more resources to increase weekend police presence in May, June and September, in addition to more consistent police presence through July and August.
Treiber hopes to gather at least 500 signatures as a starting point, but will continue to reach out to others in the community to get involved, as well.

BY ALEX MITCHELLA national controversy is
hitting close to home, liter-ally.
Some children separated from families at the U.S./Mex-ican border are being shel-tered in the Bronx.
In collaboration with lo-cal social services, the chil-dren are being detained at Lutheran Social Services, 831 Eagle Avenue while others have been placed in the care of Catholic Guardian Services throughout the borough and elsewhere.
When this was made pub-lic, elected leadership from all over the Bronx held a rally on the steps of the Bronx County Building on Friday, June 22 to oppose the separation of mi-grant children from their fam-ilies.
“If anyone has any doubt of the contributions of the immi-grant communities just look at the turnaround here in the Bronx,” said Borough Presi-dent Ruben Diaz, Jr. to open the rally and prayer vigil. “We are here today because of a humanitarian crisis…we are here today to address a stain on the nation’s soul,” he

“We won’t tolerate detain-ing our children, we won’t tolerate these policies on im-migration…all of us stand-ing here today are sending a
message to Donald Trump, we want to keep the American dream alive,” said Klein.
The rally received sup-port on both sides of the po-litical spectrum as well. Conservative district leader Oswald Denis stood along-side the Bronx electeds hold-ing a sign with “Mr. Trump don’t mess with our kids” written on it.
“This isn’t an issue of par-
ties, this is an issue of hu-mans,” Denis said. “We should unite for this, it’s what makes the Bronx unique,” he added.
Congressman Joseph Crowley also expressed his op-position to these polices that are effecting his district.
“This issue isn’t just hap-pening in Texas, it’s happen-ing right here in the Bronx, it’s so close to home what we’re calling for is all Americans to
speak out against separating children from their mothers and fathers.
Father Eric Cruz is work-ing with Catholic Guardian Services to care for these chil-dren.
The pastor of St. John Chrysostom Church had just returned from his trip to McAllen, TX to speak during the rally.
While the stubble on his beard was incidental, the mud on his shoes was left in-tentionally to show the thun-derstorms he had to trudge through to see the detention centers.
“When we were in that storm it made think, who’s is going to be there for those kids when they get frightened my thunder and lightening? When they cry out for their parents, when they’re scared? Who is there to comfort them and remind them that they are safe?” Cruz said.
Cruz also assured that the children would be receiving the best of care underneath Catholic Guardian Services as Diaz thanked him for his devout work to the issue at hand.
Drop clean and dry clothing, paired shoes, linens, handbags, belts, and other reusable textiles and
we’ll keep them out of the landfill.

BY ROBERT WIRSINGA new program at NYC’s
largest park is inspiring Bronxites to become more ac-tive this summer.
In a fi tting tribute to the summer solstice, the New York Road Runners launched its lat-est free NYRR Open Run Pro-gram on Thursday, June 21 at Pelham Bay Park.
The weekly 5K walk/run is scheduled every Thursday at 7 p.m. at the park’s Sweetgum Playground located near the intersection of Wilkinson Ave-nue and Bruckner Boulevard.
The 2.5 mile course starts and fi nishes at Sweetgum Playground and passes by the historic Bronx Victory Memo-rial Monument.
Approximately 81 runners and walkers participated in the exciting community exer-cise.
Pelham Bay Park is the fourth Bronx park, which in-cludes Crotona, Soundview and St. Mary’s parks, to host an NYRR Open Run.
It is the third and fi nal NYRR Open Run expansion planned for 2018.
The park is the 16th site across the fi ve boroughs to of-
NY Road Runners’ Open Run expands to Pel Bay Park
Participants of the inaugural NYRR run/walk in Pelham Bay Park were eager to embark on their trek through NYC’s largest park! By Silvio Pacifi co
fer the program.“When I saw this event I
said to myself that I didn’t do anything, but work so I need to really do this for myself,” expressed Miriam Quinones, Bedford Park resident and NYRR Open Run participant. “It’s the cheapest form of physi-cal therapy and you get to meet everyone, from the baby in the stroller to the person on a cane in a comfortable setting.”
Pelham Bay Park joins ten citywide parks to have NYRR Mile Markers installed by the end of the year.
The mileposts are designed to assist parkgoers with nav-igation, distance tracking,
mapping their fi tness progress and improving their health and wellness.
NYRR Open Run sites are led by community volunteers and are selected based upon local community members’ de-mand for programming, park size, infrastructure and per-ceived need as measured by NYC Parks’ Community Parks Initiative standards.
Held in coordination with Parks’ CPI, NYRR Open Run launched in June 2015 with St. Mary’s Park being its fi rst site.
NYRR Open Run is a com-munity-based, volunteer-led running initiative providing
free weekly runs and walks to local neighborhood parks across all fi ve boroughs.
The program welcomes participants of all ages and ex-perience levels: walkers, stroll-ers and dogs.
“Through the fi rst three years of NYRR Open Run, we have witnessed fi rsthand the benefi ts and positive im-pact that offering free access to group runs and walks can have on members of communi-ties,” shared Michael Rodgers, NYRR vice president of youth and community runner en-gagement.
Since its launch, NYRR Open Run has attracted over
37,000 fi nishers and 5,000 vol-unteers.
“Year round, our team is ac-tivating at parks in all corners of the city to help motivate and inspire people of all ages and abilities to get outside and stay active for life,” expressed Ra-chel Pratt, NYRR senior vice president of youth and com-munity services.
Weekly 5K walks/runs are scheduled for St. Mary’s Park and Soundview Park on Satur-days at 9 a.m. and for Crotona Park on Sundays at 9 a.m.
Participants are encour-aged to arrive 15 minutes be-fore the run’s start and to leave their valuables at home.

Many older adults take a variety of medi-cations. On average, they take more medica-tions than any other age group. It is important to take medication as pre-scribed, but this can be a challenge. Today’s arti-cle will present some key terms and safety tips to keep in mind.
Prescriptions are medications that you
receive with a doctor’s order for treatment (for example, pills to treat diabetes or high blood pressure).
O ver - t he - C ou nt er (OTC) medications can take the form of pills, liq-uids, or creams and do not need a doctor’s order to purchase. These in-clude such things as al-lergy medications, pain pills, and cough medi-
cine. Dietary Supplements
and Vitamins also do not require a prescription and are used to supple-ment the diet with addi-tional nutrients. These can include multivita-mins, specifi c vitamins such as B12 and D3, St. Johns Wart, Ginkgo Bil-boa, etc.
Before starting a new medication have a
conversation with your healthcare providers. Make sure that you give them a list of your cur-rent medications includ-ing any OTC medications and dietary supplements you may be taking. This is important to avoid any drug interactions that could prove harm-ful to your health. Also discuss any allergies or reactions, such as hives,
trouble breathing, etc. that you may have had before from specifi c med-ications. This is crucial when seeing a special-ist who may not have ac-cess to your entire medi-cal record, so you can be treated in the best way possible.
If you are put on a new medication and it is making your feel sick or you are experiencing adverse side effects, call your provider immedi-ately or 911.
Do not stop taking prescription medica-tions even if you feel bet-ter unless your provider tells you that it’s ok.
If you are having trouble paying for medi-cations, there are pro-grams available to as-
sist. The Partnership for Prescription Assistance provides information on programs offering free and low-cost medi-cations. BigAppleRx is NYC’s offi cial discount prescription card. RxAs-sist provides an online database of patient assis-tance programs run by the drug companies.
We encourage you to review all the current drugs and supplements you are taking with your provider at your next visit.

BY GENE DEFRANCIS, FOUNDERSummer is here and so is
the loud music. Allerton still has very quiet blocks that even a regular radio can echo up and down the neighbor-hood if turned up to eleven. For all purposes it’s a quiet neighborhood and we like to keep it this way.
Men working in their driveway on their car or do-ing some form of manual la-bor while listening to loud music does not seem to ef-fect the neighbors as much. Neighbors who know each other don’t seem to mind when they are playing loud music either. This is a phe-nomenon that can either be explained by the working class history of our commu-nity and should be recog-nized if new to the neighbor-hood or receiving complaints about your loud music.
Also music with swear-ing and violence on a quiet block is also not appreciated. My block in particular is ex-periencing this the past few weeks with new neighbors. I noticed the new neighbors keep to themselves. They sit outside drinking and relax-ing. Aside from the music,
not really bothering anyone. But because of who I am, I
have all the neighbors run up to me with their complaints. I don’t mind the neighbors reaching out to me. And I don’t disagree with them. The way of dealing with it when it gets out of hand is, I tell all my neighbors how I’m going to solve it and I take my giant speaker, point it at their home and I play my mu-sic, Darrius Rucker’s ‘Wagon Wheel’ is my personal favor-ite.
Keep in mind we are talking about inconsider-ate neighbors not necessar-ily dangerous ones. If you suspect the neighbors are conducting illegal activities then loud music is a great op-portunity for one of our NCO offi cers to pay a visit and in-troduce themselves.
But as for the inconsider-ate neighbors blasting their music simple communication usually works. Especially during the very hot summer days keep your cool and be respectful even though we know you are in the right. If they become rude or bellig-erent remain calm and then you can email us or another
civic association. But what-ever you do it is no cause to resort to violence.
In our case my fi rst line as their neighbor is... “I hear your music and it’s a rule that anyone who can hear the mu-sic is invited to the party.” If the person is decent this usu-ally get a laugh. Then leads to an introduction. Keep a smile on your face. Be the fi rst to introduce yourself. If they are rude then walk away and contact a civic associa-tion. If they are friendly then fi nd common ground and get to know each other.
Late night music after 11 p.m. is not ok. Be lenient with your neighbors if they are celebrating a graduation or birthday responsibly. Mean-ing only the loud music is the issue. But if you are playing the loud music be courteous and let your neighbors know that you will be having an event.
These are general rules and conditions. Every case is unique. But we have many people with different habits and different perspectives of what is socially accept-able. So keep communication open. Stay calm. And remem-ber your community is your business.
Once again we remind you that the Allerton Inter-national Food Festival is July 21st. Contact us at [email protected] to inquire about sponsoring or renting a table to sell or pro-mote your product.
I also want to speak to all merchants and those who contribute to the holiday lights. Myself and other vol-unteers will be collecting early this year. I will not have volunteers going door to door in the dead of winter any-more. And the vendor would like to receive payment upon completion of the job. They have been very cooperative with us. Please have your checks ready by September or October. Halloween is the absolute latest we want to ac-cept a check. We are setting a goal of $10,000 to collect this year because we want to in-
clude more lights and profes-sionally light the Bronxwood tree.
We are looking for more trustworthy volunteers to help us collect as well and if we can get enough people and raise enough money maybe we can connect the lights on Williamsbridge Road.
Our email address is Al-ler ton Mercha nts@g mai l .com and our next meeting will be held on Monday, July 2 at the beautiful Sanz Ban-quet Hall.
Finally, we are going to begin another year of ad-vertising in this great news-paper. If you would like to participate we suggest you consider a discount offer so when people see your ad they are encouraged to visit your establishment. It’s an extremely affordable way to build relationships and get your name into the public. It helps us also promote vari-ous upcoming events. Aller-ton businesses have priority and there are only 15 spots available. But if you cater to the Allerton community you are welcome to reach out to us and will be considered if a spot is available.

This week I introduced legislation that would require the NYC Depart-ment of Transportation to expand ferry service to Throggs Neck and Queens. The ferry is a common-sense solution that will use one of our most precious natural resources - our waterways - without overburdening our communi-ties or our taxpayers.
Instead of ineffi cient, half-hearted efforts to repair our broken subway system, or fantasizing about impracti-cal trolleys, we need to work towards a modern infrastructure that can meet the demands of the 21st century. That means investing in new technology to upgrade our existing transportation and coming up with innovative new so-lutions that will last for generations.
Expanding ferry service is a cost-
effective solution that will bring a des-perately needed service to our commu-nities.
While the last budget may have ig-nored this priority, I won’t stop fi ght-ing until my constituents can make it to Manhattan in a reasonable amount of time, and this is the quickest and easi-est way of achieving that.
Our infrastructure is aging and our pothole ridden roads cannot support all the cars that our currently out there. This leads to major congestion and all of the problems that go with it such as traf-fi c delays and environmental damage.
Ferry service may not solve all of our city’s transportation woes, but it will certainly help alleviate some of the more immediate stress placed on our system. This is only the fi rst step
to what should eventually be a more ef-fi cient and reliable transportation sys-tem, and we are taking the fi rst steps in the Bronx.
Our district, and our borough, has long been underserved, but that stops with the implementation of this legis-lation. With this legislation now intro-duced it is up to the mayor and the city administration to execute the plan.
(Councilman Mark Gjonaj represents the 13th Council District, which includes the Allerton, City Island, Country Club, Edgewater Park, Ferry Point, Locust Point, Morris Park, Pelham Bay, Pel-ham Gardens, Pelham Parkway, Schuy-lerville, Silver Beach, Spencer Estate, Throggs Neck, Van Nest, Waterbury La-Salle, Westchester Square, and Zerega neighborhoods.)

Weekly insurance tips from John Cerini
John Cerini, Enrolled Agent
How are our car insurance rates calculated in New York State? Has this been a question on your mind that eats at you every time you pay your auto insurance bill? As an insurance agent in the state of New York, it was always a mystery to me and sometimes I still wonder how the algorithm really works. However today I will describe a few of the items that go into the mix and decide how much you will pay for your car insurance rates.
The most recent part of our pric-ing that has changed in the last few decades is our credit score. In 2003, The University of Texas conducted an analysis based on 175,647 policies. This study found that drivers with lower credit scores had a tendency to incur more car insurance losses and had larger payouts on claims. There-fore, illustrating that these consumers were a greater risk to auto insurers. The Federal Trade Commission also did an independent study to compre-hend if there were any true links be-tween credit history and the insured risk. In a similar way, they found that credit-based insurance scores effected the risk of the insured drivers. These and other studies that have been con-tinuously ongoing and have continued to agree that this is a fair and reason-able way to assist in a pricing system.
The next is your age, experience and resident household members. This is a big part of your pricing as well. Why? Well if you are a young inex-perienced driver, then the insurance companies know that you will most likely have a ‘situation’ happen more than a driver that has lots of experi-ence. At one time, we were all that young inexperienced driver, and we know (if we are honest) that we were not the best drivers. However, like ev-erything else, practice makes you bet-ter. Therefore, the longer you have been driving, the better price you will get. Now if you are like me with teen-age children, regardless how long you are driving, your children will raise your rates simply because they live in your household. However, if they don’t have a driver’s license they will not af-fect your premiums.
Many people will try not to disclose their young drivers for the obvious reason to save money. However, if your children have an accident and the in-surance companies realize that your policy was not being rated properly, the insurance company will have the right to either retroactively rate your policy to the correct premium as of the date your child was licensed or cancel your policy. It is our obligation as the insurance policy holder to be truthful to the insurance companies. When we start a policy, we sign a contract with the insurance company. If we delib-erately omit an important fact, that omission may void the contract you signed. This goes for all types of insur-ance including home owners and busi-ness risks as well. Therefore, be like
Honest Abe, and tell the truth. You may have to pay more, but you will be cov-ered properly in the event of a loss.
The type of vehicle you are driving will also play a factor in your premium calculation. For example, if you are driving a minivan, you should pay less than if you are driving a Porsche. There are three factors that go into this phi-losophy. One, the vehicle is considered a sports car which typically people drive faster. Two, the vehicle may be more likely to be stolen because it is a very rare car and parts are in high demand. Three, the simple fact that it would cost the insurance company more money to replace it in the event of a theft, makes it a higher risk. Now this would be the same for many other vehicles, not just very expensive vehicles. For example, you may be able to go buy or lease a brand-new vehicle today for under $200 a month, however that vehicle may ac-tually have an MSRP of $40,000 and the insurance company will have to pay a large amount all at once to your fi nance company in the event of a loss.
The location where you live and park your vehicle at night will also be part of the premium calculation. In New York City, residents will usually pay differ-ent rates based on which borough they live in. For example, a Brooklyn resi-dent will pay more than a Bronx resi-dent. The ‘territory’ has an effect sim-ply because based on losses in any given community will statistically show the insurance companies that it is a higher risk for that insured. Specifi c area ac-cidents, claims, thefts, fraud and other factors will come together with all the other pieces we have been discussing in the article as a whole to rate your policy. This is the unfortunate reason we see many cars in our area with out of state license plates. Simply because Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio and other states are less expensive than New York state and New York City specifi -cally. Many people will try to insure a vehicle at a friend or family members house upstate to save money. However, this is still considered insurance fraud. The insurance company is supposed to be compensated based on the facts of where you live, work and drive your ve-hicle on a regular basis. If you claim to live and work in Albany, when you are actually in the Bronx, your rates will be lower, but once again you may have a huge problem when you have a loss. In-surance fraud is a huge offense and can result in jail time. I am sure you have heard the phrase ‘Money can buy hap-piness.’ Please don’t try to save a few dollars, by giving your insurance com-pany a false address. In the end, it won’t be worth the few dollars you save.
Your marital status may affect your price. This factor and others described in this column may not affect your pricing. Each insurance company will have their own variables which will go into the pricing calculations. How-ever, in some cases two drivers the ex-act same age will pay different rates if
one is married. The logic is that a mar-ried person may be a safer driver.
Males will typically pay more than females for the same coverage in the same community for the same car with the same credit rating with the same driving experience. Studies have shown that women are better drivers. This statistic may be up for discussion at your next family dinner, but the in-surance companies are confi dent in this decision.
Your occupation may be a factor in your insurance rate. For example, some companies may not accept an insured who is a delivery person for a living, or a cab driver. The fear is that you will use this vehicle for work. Now does this mean that you can’t insure your vehicle no matter what your oc-cupation? Of course not, every person is insurable at a cost. Therefore, if you want to deliver goods with your vehi-cle, that is fi ne as long as the insurance company rates your policy for that risk. Therefore, once again, be honest with your insurance carrier and you will be fi ne. If you use the vehicle for work, then it must be rated as such.
The coverage you need will also af-fect your price. For example, if you have a 1995 Ford Escort, you will most likely just need liability coverage and not theft, fi re, vandalism or collision cov-erage. Based on the fair market value of the vehicle you would not want to pay a higher premium if the cars value is very low. If you have a very expen-sive car, you can imagine it will cost more to insure. If you have a brand-new 2018 GMC Acadia, you would not want to take a chance and drive this vehicle without full coverage. If you own a home or other assets, you will want to increase your limits of liabil-ity to protect yourself fi nancially. Don’t take a chance in losing your home due to an auto accident lawsuit. The lawyer for the person you might have hit with your vehicle will not have a problem in seizing your assets to compensate his client as well as himself. Your future earnings may also up for grabs. There-fore, if you own other assets or have money in the bank, insure yourself well. It may cost a few dollars more, but your peace of mind will be well worth the additional premiums.
Having no prior insurance or a lapse of insurance coverage will also affect your insurance premiums. You must be careful of a lapse. Obviously if you have a lapse of coverage, you are driving with no protection. In the event of an accident, you can lose ev-erything you worked so hard for. There is also a fi ne from NYS Department of Motor Vehicles of $8 per day for a lapse of coverage. Now a few days is not that bad, but the amount can quickly accu-mulate. If it happens once, you may be able to pay the fi ne, but on your sec-ond offense the DMV will suspend your license for the same number of days as your lapse of coverage. Many of us need our driver’s license in life.
Without it, you may not be able to get to work, or even work (if you drive for a living).
The last, but not the least impact on your insurance price is your the driv-er’s actual driving history. This means, your accident and moving violation history. If you have had accidents, this will affect your pricing as well as if you have had any moving violations. DMV assigns points for certain traf-fi c violations to track dangerous driv-ers. When a driver accumulates mul-tiple points in a short period of time, their license may be suspended. DMV may also charge a Driver Responsibil-ity Assessment fee, which is separate from any fi nes imposed by the court.
Failure to pay a DRA charge can also result in a suspended license. A few common violations and points as-signed are as follows: Speeding 1 to 10 MPH over law (2 Pts.) Speeding 11-20 MPH over (4 Pts.) Cell Phone or Texting (5 Pts.) Stop Sign or Red Light (3 Pts.)
As you can see in this comprehen-sive article, there are so many factors that can affect your auto insurance rae. These and other factors will have positive or negative effects on your current and future rates. Our offi ce will be happy to discuss these vari-able with you in more detail during an auto insurance policy review. Give us a call at (718) 829-3200 to set up an ap-pointment. We are located at 3600 E. Tremont Avenue. As local insurance brokers, we live here as well. We know your insurance needs and will provide the best service while searching for the right coverage at the correct price. Due to the complexities of the insur-ance system, not every insurance com-pany will weigh every factor the same. As an insurance broker and agent this article was written from my experi-ence, but does not refl ect the opinion of ANY insurance carrier. Your in-surance company may not use any of the factors I have discussed. Feel free to contact your broker or agent or call us for a detailed policy review. Have a safe summer. When the weather is nice we tend to drive more. Be safe out there.

Country Bank was be-stowed with the highest honor by the Burke Rehabilitation Hospital’s board of trustees at the 23rd Annual Burke Award Dinner. The award was pre-sented on Thursday, June 7, at Brae Burn Country Club in Purchase, New York.
The Burke Award Din-ner recognizes individuals or groups who have made sig-nifi cant contributions to the fi eld of rehabilitation, either through personal achieve-ments, the development of re-search or the establishment of programs and facilities to as-sist individuals with disabili-ties.
Since Country Bank’s founding in 1988, the Murphy family has ingrained their culture of philanthropy into the business. With Joseph Murphy, Jr. serving as presi-dent and CEO, Country Bank’s charitable efforts can be seen throughout the New York com-munities they serve.
Several members of the Country Bank family have turned to Burke to meet their rehabilitative needs. Their positive experiences are the driving force behind their continued support of Burke’s mission.
The Burke Award Dinner is the hospital’s largest fund-raiser of the year. Country
Country Bank receives Burke AwardBank served as the Diamond Sponsor of the evening, help-ing to raise thousands of dol-lars for Burke’s new Marsal Caregiver Center, the fi rst on-site caregiver center at a reha-bilitation hospital in the coun-try. Jeff Menkes, president and CEO of Burke Rehabilita-tion Hospital, acknowledged the timeliness of the award as Country Bank celebrates its 30th anniversary.
“It is a distinct pleasure to celebrate these extraordinary people at our dinner,” said Menkes. “Our honorees this year demonstrate the very essence of the Burke Award. They have made signifi cant contributions to the hospital by their example, advocacy and fi nancial support.”
“Throughout Country Bank’s existence, our core mis-sion has remained the same – to be a community bank in every sense and a model for corporate citizenship,” said Murphy. “It is our privilege to serve and support local non-profi t organizations. We are humbly honored by this recog-nition.”
Since opening the bank’s fi rst New York City branch at Woodlawn, Country Bank added locations in Riverdale, Scarsdale, Second Avenue and the fl agship branch located on Third Avenue. To mark their
anniversary milestone, the bank unveiled a fresh iden-tity, including a new message inspired by the local connec-tions the bank has with New Yorkers, which reads, ‘Here You Are Family.’ The bank has also offered special pro-motions and events through-out the year, in appreciation of its loyal customers and busi-ness partners.
“The Murphy family and Country Bank’s spirit of gen-erosity helped to make the Burke Award Dinner once again, a tremendous success,” said Menkes. “The funds raised will help us continue to position Burke as a leader in rehabilitative medicine.”
Founded in 1988, Country Bank is an FDIC-insured, full service commercial bank of-fering products and services for commercial banking and lending customers, small business customers and in-dividual consumers. Coun-try Bank is a regional leader in the commercial real estate lending business devoted to building relationships with their customers. In 2015 it opened its fl agship branch on 42nd Street and Third Avenue in NYC. The bank has addi-tional branches in Midtown NYC, Riverdale, Woodlawn and Scarsdale. Consecutively rated one of the top 200 Com-
munity Banks in the Country for the past 4 years, the Bank serves the New York City metro area, New York State, New Jersey and Connecticut.
Visit CountryBankNY.com or call (212) 818-9090 for more information.
Burke Rehabilitation Hos-pital is a not-for-profi t, acute
rehabilitation hospital in White Plains, NY. Founded in 1915, it is the only hospital in Westchester County dedicated solely to adult rehabilitation medicine. As of 2016, the hos-pital is now a part of the Mon-tefi ore Health System, Inc.

Murphy, vice president and chief marketing offi cer of Country Bank, present Jeffrey Menkes, president and chief executive offi cer at Burke Rehabilitation Hospital, with a $30,000 donation along with JoAnn M. Murphy, vice chair of Country Bank and Joseph M. Murphy, chairman of Country Bank, at the annual Burke Award Dinner on June 7th. The event also honored the Murphy family for their long term support of the hospital.
Saint Barnabas High School has been awarded a $15,000 grant to support STEM-related education with the development of a Virtual Reality (VR) pro-gram through Gannett|USA Network’s 2018 ‘A Commu-nity Thrives’ (ACT) Pro-gram. Non-profi ts were chal-lenged to apply and compete for much needed funding.
Saint Barnabas High School’s VR learning pro-gram will now be able to open a new world to current areas of study such as math, science, history and art.
St. Barnabas High School receives STEM GrantThe project will also be inte-grated into the Saint Barna-bas High School Internship Program, which allows for qualifi ed seniors the oppor-tunity to study in a specifi c fi eld of interest. Students will be able to discover and learn in 3-D elements of the human body in their biology and health classes; chemis-try students will participate in lab work otherwise not possible to perform in their classroom; and history stu-dents will take ‘fi eld trips’ to European battlefi elds or visit museums around the
world without ever leaving the school building.
“We are very grateful to Gannett|USA Today Network for this special opportunity. The options are endless and provide a whole new level of potential learning. Medical interns can watch surgeries and other procedures to help them narrow down their fi eld of interest. Law interns can be present for past and cur-rent court trials that can help them learn how to navigate during a cross examination or questioning their client. It will enable us to explore new
subject areas and electives such as astronomy, engineer-ing and architecture”, stated principal Theresa Napoli.
ACT, now in its second year, awards grants to non-profi t organizations with projects focused on improv-ing local communities in the categories of Wellness, Educa-tion, or Arts and Culture. The nationwide program empow-ers communities to take on lo-cal challenges and spread the word about the issues impor-tant to them by using the plat-form of USA Today Network, which includes USA Today
and 109 local publications.“ACT is all about making
an impact through the reach of the USA Today Network,” said Andy Yost, chief market-ing offi cer, Gannett. “This year’s recipients are cer-tainly deserving, and we are honored to support them.”
“We were so moved by the number of inspiring ideas submitted to ACT,” said Bob Dickey, president and chief ex-ecutive offi cer of Gannett. “We are excited about the opportu-nity to empower these organi-zations to create real change in their communities.”

She has also taught dance in many public after school programs in the Bronx and in Westchester as well as teaching dance programs in Fordham University and Hostos Community College. Nicole is honored to have been given the opportunity to own the dance studio she started her training in.

BRONX DAY IN ALBANY - BUSINESS HALL OF FAME AWARDSBRONX DAY IN ALBANY - BUSINESS HALL OF FAME AWARDSFordham University
Founded 1841The history of Ford-
ham University spans over 175 years, from the university’s beginnings as St. John’s College in 1841, to its establishment as Fordham University, and its clerical indepen-dence in the 1950s. Ford-ham is the oldest Roman Catholic institution of higher education in the northeastern United States, and the third-oldest university in the state of New York, after New York University and Columbia University.
In 1840, the Irish-born Most Reverend John J. Hughes purchased the bulk of Rose Hill Manor, a private farm in the village of Fordham for slightly less than $30,000 with the intent of estab-lishing St. Joseph’s Sem-inary, which was paired with St. John’s College in 1841.
Rose Hill was the name originally given to the site in 1787 by its owner, Robert Watts, a wealthy New York mer-chant, in honor of his family’s ancestral home
Urban Health Plan
Founded 1974Urban Health Plan,
the predecessor of the San Juan Health Cen-ter, began in 1974 as the brainchild of Dr. Richard Izquierdo, a life-long res-ident of the south Bronx, and a pedestrian/family practitioner.
Affectionately known as ‘Doc’, he set out to pro-vide basic and specialty medical care, compa-rable to those found in the local hospital outpa-tient clinics, to the com-munity’s predominantly Hispanic and poor resi-dents.
In 1967, Dr. Izqui-erdo purchased an abandoned building on Southern Boulevard and Westchester Avenue with a down payment of $3,000 to create the San Juan Health Center. Seven years later, Urban Health Plan, a private, non-profi t corporation licensed by the NYC De-partment of Health, was established to broaden the scope of the work started by San Juan Health Center.

Arthur Avenue Retail
Market
Established 1944During the Prohibi-
tion era, the Italian im-migrants were known for booze smuggling and the proliferation of pushcart venders. In order to bring the vendors together in a more sanitary environ-ment, Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia opened the Arthur Avenue Retail Market.
At fi rst the market was made up of 100 ven-dors, each occupying a small stall that sold a sin-gle product, such as toma-toes, olive oil, chickens, etc.
By 1950 the com-position of the market changed with its 30 ven-dors now specializing in a broader selection of product. As shops merged and shopkeepers retired the number of retailers consolidated to 15 by 1970. Today the market is oc-cupied by ten solid busi-nesses.
The Arthur Avenue Retail Market is the lynchpin of the Belmont ‘Little Italy’ neighbor-hood. Every day Bronx-

Manor Caterers
Founded 1960Richard Naclario,
born on Wallace and Al-lerton avenues, and his fi ve brothers, purchased a catering hall on East-chester Road, off Boston Road, in 1960.
The Naclario’s oper-ated a heavy construc-tion company that in-stalled sewer mains and paved roadways. In the later part of the 1950s the fi rm was hired to lay the sewer and water lines, as well as build the lakes, mountains and desert for the iconic Freedomland.
After serving in the Korean Confl ict, Rich-ard qualifi ed to sepa-rate from the service two weeks early because he had lined up a construc-tion job from a developer that was building homes and a catering facility called Racine Way on Eastchester Road. Little did Richard realize at the time that a few years later he and his broth-ers would be purchasing the wedding hall that he

Founded by 1954In 1954 Golden Glow
Cookie Co. was estab-lished on Barnes Avenue at Burke Avenue by Rose Florio and her father. They began baking tradi-tional homemade cookies from old family recipes. Now 64 years and four generations later the Flo-rio family continues to produce delicious cook-ies, cakes and pastries

McCall’s Bronxwood
Funeral Home
Established 1966In 1966 three entre-
preneurs from Morrisa-nia came together to cre-ate McCall’s Bronxwood Funeral Home. Herbert T. McCall owned the Her-bert T. McCall Funeral Home since 1952; Emma Brisbane operated Flow-ers By Emily next door to the funeral home; and James Alston ran Fred-die’s Bar and Cafe.
Realizing that the community they were serving was moving to the northern part of the borough, the three com-bined resources to lease and then purchase the site at 4035 Bronxwood Avenue where the fu-neral home stands today.
Despite the passing of the original opera-tors, Alston’s son James Alston, an attorney, has continued as the sole survivor of the group.
McCall’s incorpo-rated technology into the industry: comput-erized funeral arrange-ments, web broadcast-
in Scotland.After the turn of the
20th century, the univer-sity began to expand con-siderably, opening sev-eral new schools as well as changing its name.
St. John’s College offi -cially became Fordham University on March 7, 1907.
Beginning in the 1920-1921 calendar year, all students attending the university who did not reside with parents or immediate relatives were required to live in the university’s resi-dence halls.*

Elder question of the week
SALVATORE M. DI COSTANZO
Dear Mr. Di Costanzo: I am in the process of a divorce. What happens if I die or lose my capacity?
In many cases, a divorce is a traumatic experience for both parties. Usually, neither party has given much thought to the unintended conse-quences of death or disability during divorce. Until there is a fi nal decree or judgment of separation or divorce, each party remains the spouse of the other.
Upon the death of one party, and without proper planning, the surviving spouse maintains all inheri-tance rights, whether by Last
Will and Testament (“Will”), Revocable Trust or intestacy (meaning you have no Will). Moreover, all benefi ciary des-ignations, transfer on death accounts, fi duciary appoint-ments (such as agents under a power of attorney, execu-tors in a Will, trustees of a trust and health care agents under a health care proxy) re-main intact until the divorce is complete.
None of us know when we will die or become disabled, but if it happens during the pendency of a divorce, your spouse may receive a wind-fall and/or be in a position to make your fi nancial and
medical decisions. To pre-vent this from happening, you must redraft your Will or Revocable Trust to disinherit your spouse to the fullest ex-tent permissible under New York State law. In New York, a surviving spouse is statuto-rily entitled to receive a por-tion of your estate and this cannot be changed.
You should also remove your spouse as agent under your power of attorney and health care proxy.
Salvatore M. Di Costanzo is a partner with the fi rm of Maker, Fragale & Di Costanzo, LLP located in Rye, New York, and Yorktown Heights,
New York. Mr. Di Costanzo is an attorney and accountant whose main area of practice is elder law and special needs planning. He is a member of the National Academy of El-der Law Attorneys and a fre-quent author and lecturer on current elder law and special needs topics. Since 2013, Mr. Di Costanzo has been selected each year by the rating ser-vice, Super Lawyers as a New York Metro leading elder law attorney. He can be reached at (914) 925-1010 or via e-mail at [email protected]. Visit his practice specifi c website at www.plantodayfortomor-row.com.

BY MICHELE TORIONIWe would like to offer our
condolences to our district manager Matt Cruz on the loss of his father, our prayers to him and his family.
Our last meeting of the season on Tuesday, June 19, brought updates on commu-nity concerns. The owner of the building at 3250 Westchester Avenue, has agreed to not erect a 12-story building but rather a 7-story building with parking for 298 cars. Senator Jeff Klein was infl uential is negotiating
these changes. People block-ing residents driveways, con-tinues. It is feared that issue will get worse once the new building at 3250 Westchester Avenue is operational.
NYC Department of Transportation Bronx Bor-ough Commissioner Nivardo Lopez was informed of large trucks cutting through St. Paul Avenue trying to get to Westchester Avenue. The trucks then cannot turn on to Westchester Avenue so they have to back up thereby causing the cars behind, to
also back up. This has hap-pened several times already. It was suggested that placing a sign at the foot of St. Paul Avenue saying ‘No Trucks’ might help. No response has yet been received but this is-sue it will continue to be fol-lowed up on.
People disposing of their personal trash in the cans on the street and not in their personal cans, has increased. Elaine Fiorio of Assembly-man Mike Benedetto’s offi ce, who was in attendance at our recent meeting contacted the NYC Sanitation Department, and received the following response: “Chase is consis-tently getting summons.
The Sanitation superin-tendent personally has gone into the bank to speak with the manager on a few occa-sions. The manager told him
they only have a person in once a week to sweep.
The superintendent told him regardless, they need to sweep every day. They pay their summoness, but still don’t clean up. The superin-tendent will pay them a visit again. His night crew does pick up the garbage but they will be on the lookout be-tween the hours of 10 to 11 a.m. when summons are is-sued.
He said he will also look into putting a trash can back on that corner.”
On the just-released list of Best Children’s Hospitals in the United States, the Children’s Hospital at Montefi ore (CHAM) continues to rank as one of the fi nest in the nation. Accord-ing to U.S. News & World Re-port, CHAM is among the top 50 in Gastroenterology & GI Surgery, Neurology & Neuro-surgery, Neonatology, Cancer, Nephrology, Orthopedics and Urology.
The annual rankings high-light pediatric centers that de-liver state-of-the-art medical care to children with complex conditions. Since opening in
Children’s Hospital at Montefi ore ranks one of best in nation2001, CHAM has built a reputa-tion for providing cutting-edge care to infants and children with a wide range of healthcare needs, including complex sur-geries such as liver and kidney transplants, brain surgery and orthopedic procedures.
“Our surgical specialists at CHAM perform hundreds of procedures every year, rang-ing from minor surgery to the most challenging cases,” said Daphne Hsu, M.D., interim chair of pediatrics at Mon-tefi ore and Albert Einstein Col-lege of Medicine and physician-in-chief at CHAM. “Families
choose CHAM because they are confi dent that we provide the highest level of care, using advanced techniques, while ad-dressing the overall needs of children and their families.”
Among the specialties ranked at CHAM:
Gastroenterology & GI Sur-gery jumped up 14 places to number 16 in the nation this year.
Neonatology, including our Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) and services also moved up 23 places to rank at number 27.
Neurology & Neurosurgery
placed 26th on the top 50 list.Pediatric Cancer care is
ranked number 34 in the na-tion.
CHAM’s commitment to patient safety and continuous performance improvement ef-forts, robust infection preven-tion policies and practices, and integrated teams of surgeons and healthcare providers are just some of the reasons the Bronx-based children’s hospi-tal continues to feature among the best in the country.
The Best Children’s Hos-pitals rankings are the only comprehensive source of qual-

The Bronx is getting greener, thanks to the open-ing of nonprofi t GrowNYC’s seasonal Bronx Borough Hall and Parkchester Greenmar-kets, bringing more than just fresh, locally grown produce to the area.
Every week shoppers at these farmers markets can drop clothing and other tex-tiles for reuse and recycling, and deposit kitchen scraps into bins for transport to a lo-cal compost site.
Local food and recycling return to Bronx greenmarketsGrowNYC has accepted
food scraps at its Bronx Bor-ough Hall and Poe Park Greenmarkets since 2013, through its zero waste pro-grams funded by the New York City Department of Sani-tation. This service was added to the Parkchester Greenmar-ket in 2014.
Since they began accept-ing food scraps, such as vege-table trimmings, stale bread, and coffee grounds, 70,820 lbs. have been collected and trans-
formed into renewable energy or compost for local farming and gardening projects.
GrowNYC also provides drop-offs for clothing and tex-tiles at these markets. Tax-deductible donations come in the form of clothing, shoes, bedding and towels. Materi-als are sorted for reuse or re-cycling.
GrowNYC has collected more than 5 million pounds of clothing and textiles and over 11 million pounds of food
scraps at dozens of collection sites throughout the fi ve bor-oughs.
Together, food scraps and textiles comprise 27% of New York City’s waste, making ef-forts like these critical to re-ducing the Big Apple’s envi-ronmental footprint.
Bronx Borough Hall and Poe Park Greenmarkets take place Tuesdays through No-vember 27.
Food scraps and clothing are accepted at 161st Street
and the Grand Concourse from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.; food scraps and clothing are col-lected at 192nd Street and the Grand Concourse from 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Parkchester Greenmarket runs on Fridays through No-vember 30 at Westchester Av-enue and White Plains Road food scraps and clothing are accepted from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
For more information, visit www.grownyc.org or call (212) 788-7964.
BY STEVEN GLOSSER The Pelham Parkway
Neighborhood Association had two guests at its last meeting before the summer recess. It was very well at-tended with over 60 commu-nity residents. Our speak-ers were Councilman Mark Gjonaj and Neighborhood Initiatives Development Cor-poration director Hazel Mi-ura.
We had a few announce-ments before the meeting started. Senator Jeff Klein will be hosting a Fireworks Extravaganza at Orchard Beach on Thursday June 28 starting at 7 p.m. There will be a program and live enter-tainment. To RSVP call his offi ce (718) 822-2049. Klein and the NIDC will be hav-ing a free Peephole Instal-lation initiative for seniors and the physically impaired. They are partnering together to provide peephole installa-tions to seniors at eye-level for ease and safety.
This offer is exclusively for residents of the 34th Sen-ate District. For more infor-mation about this program please call (718) 231-9800, ext. 24 or (718) 822-2049. Please take advantage of this pro-gram.
Councilman Gjonaj cap-tured the audience’s atten-tion as they listened intently as he elaborated on his fi rst 100 days in offi ce. Mark ex-plained the mayor’s pro-posed budget for NYC is $89 billion dollars which broken down comes to $10,400 per each resident.
We spend four times more than the top fi ve city’s in the country. A $1.6 billion in-crease in property tax is also part of the mayor’s budget.
Mark is very critical of how taxpayer money is spent. He reiterated we need to spend money more wisely. Espe-cially on education ,trans-portation and quality of life. Mark has received statistics and feedback from the 49th Precinct on the high crime areas in the neighborhood. In response to that he will procure three cameras for the following high crime ar-eas: Cruger Avenue and Ly-dig Avenue; White Plains Road and Pelham Parkway; and Lydig Avenue and White Plains Road. The cameras cost $100,000 per camera and will be well worth it to help combat the infl ux of crime and drug sales in those ar-eas. One of Mark’s goals is to improve the quality of life in the community. As proof of how in tune with the com-munity Mark is, his offi ce is open one late night per week and Mark will be there him-self to assist those in need. His new offi ce is located at 1478 Williamsbridge Road.
On the subject of tempo-rary classrooms commonly known as trailers to accom-modate for overcrowding schools. Mark has introduced a bill to make school trailers illegal. Currently there are 5,400 students going to school in trailers meaning the chil-dren and the teachers must also go outside all year round to these trailers to teach our students. What an inconve-nience this must be for both teachers and children. On the subject of children Mark is hell-bent on better educat-ing and preventing our chil-dren from using drugs.
Mark is exploring the use of cameras on city buses as a way of additional law en-
forcement. The delicate sub-ject of homeless on White Plains Road was brought up by a member of the audience. Also appearing at the meet-ing and making note of all the homeless locations were the neighborhood coordina-tion offi cers for our sector. If you spot something that you need our NCO’s for please contact them by call or text. Sector B offi cers are police offi cer Sanchez phone (929) 273-9685 and police offi cer Mujaj phone (929) 364-8600. Mark informed us there are currently 63,000 homeless in the city due to rising rents, drugs. Mark suggested per-manent housing is needed to get the homeless off the street.
The topic of redevelop-ing on Pelham Parkway was tackled next by Mark. Right now there is a major improvement on the north side with the replacement of water pipes which will take years according to Mark. It was mentioned that there were more trees cut down that was supposed to be but the NYC Parks Department insisted they only cut down sick trees. The PPNA thanks Mark very much for appear-ing at our meeting and keep-ing the community up to date on all the issues.
Next guest speaker to ap-pear was Miura who was ac-companied by Suad Hassan, Crime Prevention coordina-tor.

cated at 2523 Olinville Av-enue. To reach her call (718) 231-9800. Hazel’s direct email is [email protected]. The NIDC handles a litany of ser-vices to the residents of the Bronx.

BCA opens photo-based art exhibitionBronx Council on the Arts – Long-
wood Arts Project opens their fi rst ever all women photography and photo-based art exhibition, Through a Feminine Lens at Longwood Art Gal-lery @ Hostos. Through Wednesday, August 8, seven emerging female art-ists of African and Latino descent will present their artworks capturing the urgent and compelling ideas on what it means to be an immigrant, a racial minority, and a mother.
This exhibition will also present an Artist Talk on Wednesday, July 18, at which the artists will discuss how re-claiming a feminine voice is refl ected through their work and how this can initiate change.
Frequently questioned, critiqued, and debated around the world, espe-cially in the given socio-political envi-ronment, is: what does it mean to be an
inclusive society when often people are segregated due to their various differ-ences – racial, sexual, gender, personal beliefs, economic, or immigration sta-tus? The works featured in Through a Feminine Lens enunciate a dialogue between art and social politics. While the artists’ works are rooted in a com-bination of historical contexts, mem-ories and past, the various forms of their representation challenge con-vention and spark a conversation that can’t be ignored.
Some artists in this exhibition use photographs juxtaposed with everyday objects (bright color fabric) to create a relational experience of being. Others use double exposure, superimposition or fragmentation to evoke memory.
Through both straightforward and abstract expressionist artworks, Through a Feminine Lens connects
present-day social issues with heri-tage, spirituality and history.
Christa David fuses the mediums of painting, collage and assemblage to examine faith, power, politics and identity.
Lisa DuBois’s photographs are based on the spiritual signifi cance of water in ritual practices;.
Maria Estevez tackles frailty and the ephemeral using translucent, double exposed faint black and white images of beauty; likewise, Melanie Gonzalez captures landscape in mono-chromatic and double exposed photo-graphs to refl ect on her own complex cultural and national identity;.
Ijeoma Iheanacho gives a platform to one hundred black women to come forward and share their story to re-
claim and reaffi rm their personal identities through a collective image installation.
Adeline Lulo, through her photo-graphs, attempts to capture the family lives of the Dominican Republic and also have a romanticized veneer to em-phasize her personal connection and love for the Caribbean culture and the place.
Gloria Zapata uses her photographs to raise awareness about women’s health along with political issues.
Admission is free. Summer gallery hours are Tuesdays and Thursday – 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Wednesdays 1 to 8 p.m.; closed Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays and Fourth of July.

We’ll help take the mystery out of cremation.
Family Owned & Operated for over 60 years
Woodrow Wilson Triangle War Memorial in SoundviewI always enjoyed wander-
ing around the Bronx with John McNamara. One day, sometime after stopping to visit with Artie Seifert on Cla-son Point, we decided to check out a few odd place names in-cluding Murray Court. Af-ter walking through the court and looking over the bun-galows, he wanted to take a break so we walked across the street and stopped at Wil-son Triangle where I snapped this photograph. The trian-gle is bounded by Soundview, Underhill and Patterson Av-enues and was acquired by the City of New York in Octo-ber of 1912 through condemna-tion proceedings when some streets were being laid out in the area.
I was facing south when I took this photograph and Soundview Avenue is at the left and Underhill Avenue is at the right shaded by a huge elm tree. The war memorial, visible behind John, is fac-ing Soundview Avenue and was commissioned by the residents of Clason Point who raised $3500 to have it created and installed. It honors the
neighborhood residents who lost their lives in World War I and was sculpted by James Novelli (1885-1940) in 1928, one year after the triangle became park land. Unfortunately, the advent of World War II caused a decline in commissions and led the sculptor into the throes of depression. He hanged him-self at his home on May 31, 1940 leaving his wife and 16 year old son.
The bas relief bronze plaque he created of the life-size female on the memo-rial at Wilson Triangle is seven feet high and is set on an eleven-foot monument of Deer Isle granite. A bronze eagle with spread wings adorns the top of the steel while the dates 1917 and 1918 are carved at the bottom of the memorial.
The wording at the top of the memorial reads: Dedicated to those who made the supreme
sacrifi ce and to all others from Clason Point who entered the service of our country in the World War. New York City, AD 1928.
Below that are quotations from four United States presi-dents beginning with Wash-ington which reads: Let us raise a standard to which the wise and the honest can re-pair, the event is in the hands of God. The next quote is from Lincoln who wrote: That gov-ernment of the people by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth. William McKinley is next and says: No imperial designs lurk in the American mind. They are alien to American senti-ment, thought and purpose. The fi nal quote is from Wood-row Wilson himself and sim-ply states: That the world may be safe for democracy.
Wilson was our 28th presi-dent serving from 1913 to 1921
and was actively involved with the armistice as well as the creation of the League of Nations. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1919 for his efforts in helping to create a lasting peace. Thus he was a natural choice for the naming of a park in his honor and for
having the World War I memo-rial installed thereat.
He had passed away in 1924 so was still very much in mind when this park was cre-ated. Now that you know how and why the park was created, think if him the next time you pass that way
John McNamara stopped to rest at Wilson Triangle after a day of hiking around Clason Point. The war memorial behind him faces toward Sound-view Avenue and was installed in 1928. The big elm tree at the right faces Underhill Avenue and Patterson Avenue would be in the background con-necting both avenues. I took the photo on February 21, 1998.

In the Sun Porch, Katie Westmo-reland’s presentation of kinetic tap-
estries responds to the space’s archi-tecture, evoking the patterns cast by sunlight through trees and plants. Her immersive installation utilizes the passing light and shadow pat-terns of the day as active mediums in her work, calling attention to the sun’s enduring, inspirational qual-ities.

Anyone who missed the last time an Amorphophallus titanum bloomed at the New York Botani-
cal Garden will now have an oppor-tunity to witness this rare spectacle. A new specimen of the horticultural marvel—one of the largest fl owers in the world—is on display in the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory and about to bloom. Known as the corpse fl ower, it releases an infamous odor, which some have described as similar to the smell of rotting meat, during its brief 24-to-36-hour peak bloom.
Its unpredictable blooming cycle and notorious stench are part of the plant’s allure. Native to Sumatra in Indonesia, the corpse fl ower bloomed in the Western Hemisphere for the fi rst time on June 8, 1937, here at The New York Botanical Garden. A sec-ond specimen bloomed at NYBG on July 2, 1939.
Bronx Borough President James J. Lyons commemorated the event by designating the Amorphophal-lus titanum as the offi cial fl ower of the Bronx (replaced by the daylily in 2000.) Almost 80 years later, a new specimen bloomed at NYBG on Thursdsay, July 28, 2016, creating a sensation as hundreds of thousands of people experienced, in person or online, some portion of the plant’s
life cycle. Now, the bud of a new specimen is
indicating that it is ready to bloom, giving visitors a chance to experi-ence it again or for the fi rst time.
The bloom cycle occurs extremely quickly.
On June 1, NYBG horticulturists noticed what looked like the fl ower bud starting to form. The corpse fl ower was moved on Thursday, June 21, the fi rst day of summer, from NY-BG’s behind-the-scenes Nolen Green-houses for Living Collections to the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, where it is now on display in the Palms of the World Gallery, allowing visitors to experience the development of this spectacular curiosity—from bud to fl ower—with their own senses.
Its strong, distinctive odor, which attracts pollinators that feed on dead animals, will be at its most pungent during its peak blooming. The fi nal opening of the bloom is unpredict-able, but is expected to occur in the next week or two. Amorphophallus titanum is the largest unbranched infl orescence (a cluster of fl owers on a spike) in the plant kingdom, grow-ing 12 feet tall in its natural habitat and about six to eight feet tall in cul-tivation.
Although the enormous plant in bloom resembles one giant fl ower, it actually comprises a fl eshy central spike called a spadix that holds two rings of male and female fl owers, wrapped by the frilly spathe, a modi-fi ed leaf that resembles a petal.
In the fi rst several days of the bloom cycle, the bud grows about four to six inches per day. Then growth slows signifi cantly. The two bracts at the base of the spathe shrivel and fall off. Next, the spathe, which was once tightly wound around the spa-dix, loosens and begins to open, re-vealing the deep-red color inside. During bloom, the spadix self-heats to approximately human body tem-perature, which helps disseminate odor particles. The spathe unfurls during the course of about 36 hours (full bloom) before withering and dy-ing back. Generally the life cycle of the bloom is only one or two days.
A young corpse fl ower takes about seven to 10 years to store enough en-ergy to begin its bloom cycle. This specimen has been carefully nur-tured for years by NYBG horticultur-ists in the Nolen Greenhouses. After the current cycle is complete, it will be several more years before this plant is ready to bloom again.
Visitors can watch the corpse fl ower online via the Garden’s lives-tream at http://www.nybg.org/corpsefl owerlive or see and smell this rare plant fi rst-hand during its limited time in the spotlight at NYBG by purchasing an All-Garden Pass, available at www.nybg.org.

The team from the Mott Haven Campus won the championship on Saturday, May 19 at a competition with 15 other schools at Ft. Indiantown Gap, PA. The competition, run by the United States Marines Youth Foundation, included pushups, crunches, standing long jump, pull-ups, and a 300 yard run. Team members were Brahyan Cabral, Nomar Diaz, Prince Owusu, Dominick Rosa, Adrian Rosario Beato and Christopher Solano.

Con Edison is providing Food Banks in New York City and Westchester County with 200,000 high-effi ciency lightbulbs for distribution to residential customers. The light-emitting diode bulbs will save an estimated 7,100 megawatt hours of power per year. That would prevent more than 5,000 tons of greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere, the equivalent of taking 1,100 cars off the road.

RHYMESWITH CRAZY
Lenore Skenazy
Every couple of weeks I get an e-mail from someone time-
stamped 2 or 3 am, because the sender can’t sleep. Here’s one that came three weeks ago, shortened a bit:
“Dear Lenore: I am a spe-cial police offi cer in Wash-ington, DC. I wake up 4 am to work 6 am–6 pm and get home by 8 pm. No family at all. No support. Never been arrested or anything. Don’t drink. Don’t smoke. Don’t date. Don’t party. I literally have no life trying to be the best parent I can. My son is 2 and had fallen asleep af-ter our second grocery store looking for rice milk. It was 7:50 pm and 65 degrees.”
Can you guess what hap-pened next? She let him snooze in the car a few min-utes while she got the spe-cial milk. She emerged to fi nd “multiple police cars” swarming.
Why?Someone had called 911
about a child alone in a car. As if that is automatically neglect. The police grilled the mom for an hour, “All
looking at me like the worst mother ever. I can potentially lose my career over this. How then will I support us?”
Until she fi nds out whether she is let off with a warning or is found guilty of a crime, this mom doesn’t know what lies ahead. Perhaps nothing but a bad memory, but perhaps the life of a single mom out of a job, forced to live someplace cheap and dangerous. How will that make her son “safer”?
It won’t. And here’s a note I got today.
It should sound familiar:“Dear Lenore: I’m a father of
two boys in a Midwestern sub-urb. I took my kids to school, one of them threw up on the way. So I took him home and cleaned him up. I’m a dad that works at home. I’d sent two fi les for FedEx to print so I went to pick them up. My son said, ‘I feel better, dad. Can I stay in the car?’ ”
Reader, what would you do? I’d do what this papa did:
“I parked in front of the Fe-dEx, which is completely made of glass. He’s in plain sight. It’s 63 degrees, the windows are open, the doors are locked.”
Again, someone called 911. Long story short:
“Child protective services made a ruling and I will be marked as a ‘child abuser’ for fi ve years. I’m a 40-year-old man, without a single mark on my record. But because of this, I won’t be able to coach my kids’ teams any more, or go on fi eld trips with them. What do I do?”
Right now, there’s not much any parent can do other than stop calling 911 when you see a child in a car and it isn’t boil-ing hot and the car is in view of
a retail establishment.A truly good Samaritan
does not set a case in motion against a family. A good Sa-maritan stands by the car a few minutes to make sure the par-ents are coming right back, or goes into the store to see if they can locate them.
How dare I say that? Here’s how:
• Kids do not die the instant they are in an unmoving car. Of the 30–40 children who die in cars each year, KidsandCars.org reports, the overwhelming majority were forgotten there or climbed into a car unbeknownst to the parent and couldn’t get out. They were not just waiting out a brief errand.
• Believe it or not, more kids die in from getting hit by cars in parking lots than in parked cars. So let’s stop pretending “Take the kid out, he’s auto-matically safe. Leave him in, he’s automatically in danger.” Plenty of parents rue the day they took their kids out of the car instead of letting them wait.
• Yes, cars get hot in the summer. So don’t get mad at parents who leave the air con-
ditioning on while they run in to get a gallon of milk.
• If you see a child in someplace like the IBM parking lot, that kid is in danger. Clearly she’s been forgotten by a parent who went into work. Calling for emergency help there makes sense. Calling in front of the grocery does not.
• Remember we are all in this together. Let’s sup-port parents like that val-iant mom, above. And let’s assume that most parents who make a seat-of- the-pants decision are not evil or abusive, but just trying to do what makes sense in the moment, like that dad, above.
• Since forgetting kids is the real danger, the best pre-vention is to put your phone or wallet in the backseat with your child. That way, even if you’re distracted, you will open the door to get your wallet and see your precious child.

BY FRANK V. VERNUCCIO, JR.New York City’s hard-left
government (the mayor, Bill di Blasio, had, several decades ago, worked with Nicaragua’s brutal Communist Sandini-sta regime, and honeymooned in Cuba) is now seeking to sue major oil companies for ‘global warming.’
The lawsuit is occurring despite increasing doubts about the accuracy and hon-esty of those seeking to ad-dress claims of man-made global warming (by many of the same sources who warned about global cooling several decades ago.) Not coinciden-tally, the draconian solutions climate change extremists ad-vocate dovetail with long-held left-wing goals in key areas.
Leftists in NYC and else-where have also been harshly critical of President Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord, despite the fact that the onerous costs related to it would, by all ac-counts, have at best a barely negligible impact on any po-
tential global warming.The Associated Press re-
cently reported that District Judge John F. Keenan appears ‘unimpressed’ by NYC’s at-tempt.
In both the legal and dip-lomatic spheres, there is in-creased evidence that claims of a dramatic human impact on climate is based on fl awed and biased data, particularly ignoring natural causes of climate change, and the real-ity that the planet has alter-nately warmed and cooled in the past, far in advance of any human infl uence. Tempera-tures in Europe were warmer than today 1,000 years ago. Temperatures cooled signifi -cantly during the ‘Little Ice Age’ which began about 800 years and which the planet is still recovering from.
A 2007 National Geo-graphic review reported that “Simultaneous warming on Earth and Mars suggests that our planet’s recent climate changes have a natural—and not a human-induced—cause,
according to one scientist’s controversial theory. In 2005 data from NASA’s Mars Global Surveyor and Odyssey mis-sions revealed that the carbon dioxide ‘ice caps’ near Mars’s south pole had been dimin-ishing for three summers in a row. Habibullo Abdussamatov, head of space research at St. Petersburg’s Pulkovo Astro-nomical Observatory in Rus-sia, says the Mars data is evi-dence that the current global warming on Earth is being caused by changes in the sun. “The long-term increase in so-lar irradiance is heating both Earth and Mars,” he said…Abdussamatov believes that changes in the sun’s heat out-put can account for almost all the climate changes we see on both planets.Mars and Earth,
for instance, have experienced periodic ice ages throughout their histories.”
In a recent interview, cli-mate researcher Gregory Wrightstone outlined the lack of scientifi c substance to many of the claims made by climate extremists: “There is a legitimate and worthy argu-ment that is being made by sci-entists like myself that, while the additional CO2 is likely having a slight warming ef-fect, the majority of the rise in temperature is due to a natu-ral rise in temperatures since the end of the Little Ice Age. That cold period lasted for 550 years and only ended in the mid-1800’s. Bear in mind that really bad things occurred during that cooling period in-cluding famines, crop failures and death (half of the popula-tion of Iceland perished).
An unbiased opinion may legitimately be that the cur-rent warming is a welcome respite from that harsh era. Prior to the current politici-zation of climate science, the
warming periods were called ‘climatic optima’ because hu-mans fl ourished during those times.
“The temperature rise we are witnessing today is nei-ther unprecedented nor un-usual. An inspection of the chart below compares CO2 and temperatures from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project (link is on chart) of the last 12,000 years from the begin-ning of the current inter-gla-cial period to 1855 when the data starts. Several important take-aways from the chart:
• Preceding warm periods commonly reached signifi -cantly higher temperatures than we see now,
• The one constant regard-ing temperature is that it is al-ways changing
• We are about 11,600 years into the current inter-gla-cial warming period which typically last 10,000 to 15,000 years
• There is no discernible correlation between CO2 and temperature during this time.

me was ‘when are we going to hang again it’s been forever since I’ve seen you,’” said one of the girls.
Brianna Schaar taught Junior’s tenth grade English class this year at Dr. Richard Izquierdo Health & Sci-ence Charter School.
“Lesandro was such a great and genuine kid with such a good heart,” Schaar said.
She also mentioned how he struggled in English class but was the most im-proved by the end of the academic year.
“He saw a book on my desk one time and told me ‘I love books but they’re hard to read,’” she added.
Schaar also mentioned how he brought her and a colleague red roses on Valentine’s Day, calling the boy a true gentleman.
The last time that Junior and Scharr spoke was before school ended, when he told her that his family was looking into moving to Florida and how excited he was to visit Miami.
Right now his intermediate school is looking for a fi tting way to remem-ber the young man properly. One idea bounced around was a scholarship fund in his honor.
Junior’s dream was to become an NYPD detective since the age of fi ve; he was a member of the NYPD Explor-ers in the 45h Precinct, growing up and living a life avoiding trouble.
Unfortunately when trouble found Junior, many bystanders failed to act in even the smallest way, to stop the brutal attack.
Surveillance video shows Junior running into a bodega, attempting to hide behind the counter, when he is pushed away by the owner, as the gang members come into the store, dragging him out in front a group of customers, who watch the travesty unfold.
As he’s pulled out of the store, he

grasps a doorframe for dear life. A man and woman can be seen in medi-cal scrubs on the street who chose to keep walking rather than help.
After the senseless knife and ma-chete attack, Junior runs back in the store where the people there advise him to seek medical attention at St. Barnabas Hospital, a block away. Mor-tally wounded he collapses, and dies before he can get help.
Similar to Kitty Genovese, half a dozen bystanders did nothing to help the innocent boy.
Some neighbors witnessed the at-tack outside from their apartments above.
“We heard ‘Open up! They’re going to murder me!’ and by the time we saw from our window it was all over. The entire attack was less than ten sec-onds,” one neighbor said.

Vanessa Gibson and Rafael Salamanca, Jr. were so repulsed with the apathetic bodega workers that they called for the Zesarina Grocery to have its business license revoked.
In a written letter to the Commis-sioner of the NYC Department of Con-sumer Affairs, the trio expressed “An owner who stands by idly while a 15-year old is dragged out of his store and murdered in cold blood with a machete is no longer worthy of doing business in NYC.” An online petition with 39,000 signatures also calls for the re-vocation of the bodega’s license.
Police believe that the attack on Ju-nior was a case of mistaken identity. Higher-ups in the gang that is being blamed for the horrendous attack have taken to social media claiming the at-
tack wasn’t meant for Guzman-Feliz and even went to the extent of express-ing condolences to his family.
The NYPD was fl ooded with tips in the hours and days following the kill-ing to the point that police had to add extra staff to monitor the tip-line.
This public outcry has led to the ar-rest of eight gang members believed to have been involved in Junior’s mur-der.
“At the end of the day it’s about mak-ing sure justice is done. You can’t just say it, this has to been seen through [to the end],” said community advocate Tony Herbert during an organized walk from the bodega to where Junior collapsed. “They cannot set a light bail and let these people back on the streets to do it all over again.”
