Avella Declares Victory, Liu Does Not Concede
BY JOE MARVILLI
Staff Writer
State Sen. Tony Avella (D-Bayside) called the Democratic Primary
Election in his favor Tuesday night,
although his opponent, John Liu, refused to concede.
With 95.4 percent of the polls
reporting in the race for State Senate District 11 Wednesday morning,
Avella garnered 52.2 percent of the
vote, equal to 6,813 ballots. Liu trails
by 568 votes. Although Liu’s campaign
said that there are around 1,000 paper
ballots still to be counted, Avella was
confident that his victory was assured.
“We feel the lead that we have is
impossible for him to overcome,” the
Senator said at his election night party
at C.J. Sullivan’s American Grill in
Bayside.
The victory party featured civic supporters, union leaders, a representative
for U.S. Rep. Steve Israel (D-Melville)
and fellow Independent Democratic
Conference member, State Sen. David
Valesky (D-Syracuse). Avella’s move
to the IDC, which caucused with Senate Republicans last session, was the
tipping point for Liu’s entry into the
race. The Queens Democratic Party,
which said they felt Avella had “betrayed” them, backed Liu from day
one.
Avella said his win proved it was
possible to go against the Queens
Democratic Party and still come out
on top.
“The victory tonight wasn’t just
about my campaign. It was a larger issue about elected officials having independence to vote the way they think is
important for their district and in this
case, the entire State. It’s a message to
people that they can take on the political machine and beat it,” he said. “Liu
had all the resources. He had four times
as much money. He had all of what I call
‘Crowley’s cronies.’ And we still won. I
think that’s an important message for
people in the Borough of Queens.”

Cuomo, Incumbents Win
BY QUEENS TRIBUNE STAFF
Gov. Andrew Cuomo led the way
on Tuesday night as the highest-profile
of three Queens incumbents elected.
The governor held off a Democratic
Primary challenge from Fordham law
professor Zephyr Teachout, taking 62
percent of the vote statewide. While
Cuomo lost a number of counties upstate, Democratic voters in Queens
overwhelmingly came out to support
the incumbent. More than 74 percent
of Queens voters supported Cuomo.
The governor’s chosen running
mate, former Buffalo U.S. Rep. Kathy
Hochul, also held off an upstart challenge from Tim Wu, taking almost 60
percent of the vote.
Cuomo, who was largely out of the
public eye on Primary Day, released
a statement congratulating Teachout
and Wu while touting his victory
along with Hochul.
“Today’s outcome is a testament to
the progress we have made together
over the last four years: restoring economic opportunity, replacing dysfunction with results, putting people
before politics and re-establishing
New York as a progressive leader for
the nation,” the statement read.
Cuomo was joined by two Queens
legislators in Primary victories for incumbents Tuesday night. State Sen.
Toby Stavisky (D-Flushing) held off a
challenge from S.J. Jung while Assemblywoman Margaret Markey (D-Maspeth)
won her first primary in more than a decade, defeating Dmytro Fedkowskyj.
According to preliminary results,
Stavisky won with 57.3 percent of the
vote in State Senate District 16, taking
in just over 5,000 votes.
“This is one night, but we have a
lot of things to do,” she said Tuesday
night. “We have a long agenda for the
future come January.”
Stavisky said her three major priorities for her eighth term are passing
the Women’s Equality Agenda, the
DREAM Act and increasing the minimum wage.
In Assembly District 30, incumbent
Markey handily defeated Fedkowskyj,
a former member of the City’s Panel
for Educational Policy. Markey, who
was facing her first Primary challenge
since she took office, took in just over
75 percent of the vote in a primary
that saw less than 2,500 votes cast.
“My constituents have said I’m doing a good job and they appreciate the
work that I’m doing, and that makes
me feel good,” she said.
Markey addressed criticism from
her opponent that she was not very
visible in the district as well.
“If you do your homework, you’ll
pass. That’s not ego, that’s just reality,”
she said. “If I didn’t pay attention, or
if my staff didn’t pay attention to issues in the district, we wouldn’t be celebrating right now.”
Cuomo will go on to face Republican Rob Astorino in the Nov. 4 General Election. Markey will face another
challenge from Republican Anthony
Nunziato, while Stavisky does not have
a General Election challenger.

Rozic (D-Hillcrest), Councilmen Paul
Vallone (D-Bayside) and Rory Lancman (D-Hillcrest) all made appearances at Liu’s party.
Around 10:30 p.m. Tuesday
night, Liu appeared before his supporters and said the election was too
close to call. The former Comptroller said that every ballot needed to
be counted before a winner could be
determined, a process that he said
would take a few days to a week.
Even without a clear win, Liu called
his campaign a success for getting
the IDC to partner with the Democratic Party in the State Senate again
next year.
“Our campaign has succeeded already. In fact, it succeeded a number
of weeks ago when we were successful
in getting some so-called Democrats
to actually promise that they were
actually going to be Democrats,” Liu
said.
The last few months of the District
11 race featured attacks from both
sides, with Liu slamming Avella for
joining the IDC and the Senator hitting Liu over investigations into his
campaign for Mayor last year.
While Liu added that he ran an
“honest and clean campaign,” Avella
disagreed.
“I was turned off totally by the negative campaign John Liu ran. It’s just
an example of how politics isn’t getting better, it’s getting worse,” he said.
“That’s why I think winning this election was so very important, to send a
message that you can run an honest
campaign, you can be honest and still
win against the machine.”

Two New Appointees For Library Board
BY JOE MARVILLI
Staff Writer
Two more individuals have been
selected for the Queens Library’s
Board of Trustees.
Over the past few days, Mayor Bill
de Blasio announced the appointment
of Martha Baker to the Board of Trustees. Queens Borough President Melinda Katz did the same, selecting Earl
Simons for board membership.
Simons, who lives in Cambria
Heights, is the director of Government and Community Relations at
York College. He is responsible for
overseeing civic engagement efforts,
organizing special events and helping
to secure federal, State and local funding to support the college’s capital improvement and program initiatives.
“Mr. Simons’ impressive background in higher education and government, which includes extensive
experience in overseeing capital and
operating budgets, makes him a superb choice for appointment to the
Board. His intellect, work ethic and
commitment to public service will be
a great asset to the Queens Library,”
Katz said.
Before joining York College, Simons served as the director of Budget and Grants for former Manhattan
Borough President C. Virginia Fields.
“I am honored to serve as a mem-
Earl Simons
Martha Baker
ber of the Board of Trustees for the
Queens Public Library,” Simons said.
“The Library is a critical resource to
all Queens’ residents. I thank Queens
Borough President Katz for appointing me to this important position and
look forward to serving with this exciting team.”
A resident of Fresh Meadows, Baker
is the founder of Equity in Education
and Employment. This organization
provides program design, advocacy
and training to improve opportunities
for women and girls. Outside of the
group, Baker has campaigned at a local and national level for secure leave
policies that support working families
as well as women in the workplace.
She is also the founder of the Eleanor
Roosevelt Legacy Committee.
Baker is on the steering committee
of the NY Paid Family Leave Insurance
Campaign. She formerly served as executive director and CEO at Nontraditional Employment for Women. She
was the deputy director of operations
at the New York State Workers Compensation Board and served as the executive director of the Commission on
the Status of Women during Mayor
David Dinkins’ administration.
“The Queens Library has always
provided a foundation for children.
With our growing and diverse population, we have to continue expanding and innovating to meet the needs
of today’s youth, seniors and working
families. Programs, services, books
and e-books are all part of today’s library world and Queens should be
the best,” Baker said. “Thank you to
Mayor de Blasio for giving me the opportunity to assist the board in restoring the library’s much-deserved great
reputation.”
Baker and Simons will join Coalition for Queens founder, Jukay Hsu,
and CUNY’s Campus Planning and
Facilities Management Vice President,
Robert Santos, on the Library Board.
“We look forward to working
with them and continuing the legacy
of world-class library service for the
people of Queens,” Thomas Galante,
President and CEO of Queens Library,
said about the new appointees.
The need to fill seats came out of a
controversy over Galante’s salary and
spending practices. Frustrations from
Katz and de Blasio over the trustees’
votes against removing Galante and
their rejection of Comptroller Scott
Stringer’s audit request led to the
removal of eight trustees from the
board.

Non-Profit Looks To Open Another Shelter
By Luis Gronda
Staff Writer
With the recent rash of homeless shelters popping up throughout
Queens, there is a non-profit company looking to open up a transitional
homeless shelter somewhere in the
Borough.
A company called Vines New York
is looking for property to build an approximately four-to-five story building that would house about 20 to 25
homeless women with children, according to Mary Hernandez, the company’s president.
In an interview with the Queens
Tribune, Hernandez said they want
to offer temporary housing to these
women who do not have a roof over
their heads and offer them support
services. She said they want to help
these women better themselves so they
can get their own housing and keep it.
“You have to learn how to obtain
that apartment, you have to learn how
to better yourself so that you can keep
that apartment,” she said.
Hernandez said that while the
women are in the home, they would
assist them in finding permanent
housing. Their goal is to get them out
within six months, she said.
The St. Albans-based company has
sent out a letter to each of the 14 Community Boards in Queens introducing
the company and asking for their sup-
port. The letter itself is vague about
what the plans are with the potential
housing, but Hernandez said they
would like to meet with any of the CBs
in the near future.
There has been much controversy
with the recent homeless shelters that
have opened up in Queens, including the one at the Pan Am Hotel in
Elmhurst and the proposed shelter
in Glendale. Residents have rallied
against the shelters because of a variety of reasons including the kids from
the shelter potentially overcrowding the local schools and the crime it
could bring.
When asked about residents’ disapproval for homeless shelters, Hernandez said there needs to be a common
ground on this issue because the problem of homelessness is not going away
unless something is done about it.
“There should be a compromise so
that we can still help these people,” she
said.
Some of the Community Boards
who received the letter reached out to
Hernandez asking to speak about it,
but have not received a response yet.
That includes Community Boards 1
and 8.
Community Board 10 Chairperson Betty Braton read the letter during their meeting last week. They indicated that they would be unlikely to
support their plan considering there is
a similar facility within CB10, the Sky-

As for its location, Hernandez
said they have looked in areas such as

they are listed on the New York State

company.

Getting Out The Vote
Results throughout the State for the Primary elections on Tuesday showed a lot
of districts with decreased attendance – of course, many districts had no local races
to speak of, the top of the ticket was all they had. But there were some districts on
Tuesday that had some impressive turnout. Not surprisingly, those districts featured
competitive races that had people talking.
Races for State Senate Districts 11 and 14 ended up with more than 13,000 voters each coming out to choose their candidate. District 11 featured a close race that
ended with less than 600 votes separating the candidates and calls for paper ballots
to be counted. In District 14, voters declared that they had enough of corruption in
government and removed an incumbent under indictment from his seat, overwhelmingly choosing his experienced opponent.
These vote totals are exceptions, we know. Without a cause or a tight competition,
voters are no longer likely to come out and vote in a Primary election. This is unfortunate, as many of these races determine the eventual representatives in government,
as no challenger looms on the horizon for November’s General Election. But regardless of the outlier results, we still appreciate the increased voter totals for these races
Tuesday night. Voters still care, they just need to be given a reason to.
Those two races on Tuesday were great examples of Democracy in action. We hope
we can see more of that in the future.

Border Crisis Blaming Games
R
To The Editor:
epublicans continually
blame Obama, liberals
and Democrats for all
of society’s ills. Today, it’s the
border crisis. FOX “News” is
doing its job and the uneducated believe the lies. Lies like
Global warming doesn’t exist.
But we must cut these nonbelievers some slack, after all heat
stroke causes disorientation
and confusion.
But let’s focus on “illegals
and deportation.” Fact: more
people have been deported
under Obama than under
Bush. Fact: President Obama
is going to leave the White
House having deported more
immigrants than any other
president in history! Yet Republicans continue to say that
Obama is doing nothing about
the border problem. Well, that’s
just “repurposed bovine waste.”
Here is another fact (look up
the meaning, Republicans):
Obama asked for $3.7 billion
to address the border crisis,
John Boehner trimmed that
to $1.5 but the GOP House
Appropriations Committee cut
it even further to $659 million.
And then the GOP cancelled
the vote! Wow, just when
Congress (GOP) was so close
to the “appearance” of doing
“something.” How sad.
Boehner released a statement after he yanked the bill
- “There are numerous steps
the President can and should
be taking right now, without
the need for Congressional
action.” Is John Boehner suggesting that if Congress won’t
act to change a law it doesn’t
like, the President should?
Because there’s a person who
is suing the President for doing just that, right now! His
name is John Boehner. Hey,
Republicans! You’re entitled to
your own opinions, but NOT
your own facts.

Protecting Elderly
Crime Victims
By Queens District
Attorney richArD A.
Brown
With an elderly population of nearly 400,000 in our
County, each year the Queens
County District Attorney’s office handles a substantial number of cases involving elderly
crime victims. To
make sure that seniors receive the support and protection
they deserve, our
office has developed
special programs
to assist them. Our
Elder Abuse Project, headed by an
attorney who is also
a social worker, has
two social workers on staff who
can assist elderly crime victims
in obtaining crime victim compensation to cover medical,
dental or eye care expenses resulting from physical or sexual
abuse or to replace personal
property damaged or stolen.
They can provide short-term
counseling to help seniors deal
with the emotional impact of
the crime. They can help victims
access related services from
other agencies, including Meals
on Wheels, Access-a-Ride and
senior home repair programs.
They can explain the criminal
justice process and help craft
case dispositions that address
elderly victims’ needs, including restitution or substance
abuse or mental health services
for family caregivers.
An emerging crime trend is
financial crimes against the elderly. We review a large number
of financial crimes complaints
each year, which may include
telemarketing scams, consumer
frauds, credit card fraud, identity theft, caregiver/familial
financial crimes, “sweetheart”
scams and “stranger” exploitation matters. In addition, there

are many cases of deed or equity
theft, particularly involving
individuals who befriend innocent victims and gain control
over their finances or fraudulently refinance or mortgage or
sell the victim’s home without
the victim’s knowledge or permission.
These financial exploitation
of the elderly cases
demand both intensive financial investigation and prosecution resources
and comprehensive
support services for
victims. Our office established the
Elder Fraud Unit to
address both components. Specially
trained assistant district attorneys assigned to this unit
handle these matters “vertically,” i.e. from case inception
through to disposition, and
work closely with the social
workers in the Elder Abuse
Project to offer support services to victims as they proceed
through the criminal justice
process. Where criminal prosecution is not appropriate, we
refer the victim to the appropriate agency.
Finally, a public outreach
effort focuses on education
and prevention. At community forums, senior centers and
other venues, our office seeks
to increase awareness about
financial exploitation crimes
and about the availability of
services for the elderly both
within the District Attorney’s
office and in the Queens community generally.
By utilizing these programs,
we have been successful in
holding those who commit
crimes against the elderly
accountable for their actions
while providing crime victims
with the compassion, support
and services they need.

Howard Beach
Location
By LuiS gronda
Staff Writer
Howard Beach residents calling for
another supermarket in the neighborhood have finally gotten their wish.
The new Key Food location at 163-20
Cross Bay Blvd in Howard Beach opened
its door last Friday to much joy and celebration. The supermarket replaces the
Duane Reade store that was there before Superstorm Sandy and gives Waldbaum’s a competitor in the area.
Hundreds of residents lined up to
do their shopping at the new store at
the opening.
The store’s owner, Frank Almonte,
said they pledge to deliver the highest
quality service to the Howard Beach
community.
“This is overwhelming; I’ll be honest with you. I’m very happy to see all
these fine community leaders support
our cause,” he said. “Clearly, today,
the fruits of our labor are clearly obvious here.”
The new supermarket drew mostly
positive reviews from its new customers. The majority opinion was that it’s
a welcomed addition to the neighborhood and provides a competitor to the
two nearby Waldbaum’s locations in
Howard Beach and Lindenwood.
“It’s a good thing. Waldbaum’s
needs a little taste of competition,”
said George Polimeni, who has lived
in Howard Beach for 10 years. “Maybe
we’ll see better prices now.”
Frank Valvo, an 83-year-old Howard Beach resident, called the store
opening a “necessity” and said he is
more likely to walk to the Key Food,
located three blocks away from his
house, instead of taking the bus to the
Howard Beach Waldbaum’s located at
156-01 Cross Bay Blvd.
Angela Batista, a 42-year resident
of Howard Beach, echoed Valvo’s sentiment, saying she would do her shopping at another Key Food location on
Lefferts Boulevard, but will now do
that closer to home.

Housing Process To
Begin This Month
By Jackie StrawBridge
Staff Writer
Before a cluster of affordable apartments arrive on the Long Island City
waterfront, Western Queens residents
have an opportunity to get their foot
in the door.
With applications for 925 affordable housing units at the Hunters Point
South development expected to open
soon, Community Board 2 has scheduled a handful of meetings to inform the
public about the application process.
The first of these meetings is scheduled for Sept. 29 at 7 p.m. at Sunnyside
Community Services, on 39th Street
north of Queens Boulevard. CB2 also
plans to hold a meeting at the Woodside Library on Oct. 1 – time to be determined – and another in Long Island
City on Oct. 6.
The housing lottery is expected to
open in mid-October, a spokesperson
for Hunters Point South developers
Related Companies said.
According to the City Economic
Development Corporation, 60 percent
of the development’s total expected
5,000 units will be set aside as affordable for middle income families. Half
of the affordable units are targeted for
residents in CB2’s district – roughly
Sunnyside, Woodside and Long Island
City – and five percent for civil service
employees.
Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer
(D-Sunnyside), who is cosponsoring
these meetings with CB2, said that attendees can expect to learn about who
qualifies for affordable housing at this
development, the process for applying
and the timeline for when to expect
responses.
“We’re going to be encouraging
people to apply to get into the lottery,” Van Bramer said. “When people
find out that there are these beautiful
apartments on the waterfront, with
great views of Manhattan and Queens,
I think they’re going to want to become a part of this project.”
Van Bramer noted that he has already heard many of his constituents
express their interest.
“People are very anxious to find
out about when this is happening and
to get in on this,” Van Bramer said. “I
think they’re going to receive a ton of
applications.”

Tensions At CB7
Over Variance
Application
By Joe MarViLLi
Staff Writer
Community Board 7’s first meeting after the summer break was beset
by several arguments over a variance
renewal.
Utopia Realty, located at 167-02
Northern Blvd., applied to renew the
variance for another 10 years. The
trouble came from the owner, Paul
Luciano, who wanted to remove a
clause that restricted what type of
business could be run on the property.
Civilians and civic groups came out
in force to express their disagreement
with the owner.
Originally, it looked like the owner and board agreed about the terms
of the variance, as it was approved
in committee. However, during the
meeting, Luciano and his representative expressed that they still wanted
the variance restriction removed. The
variance limited the use of Utopia Realty to that of an office, meaning that if
the property was sold, it would have to
fit into that mold. A new owner would
not be able to come in and build a
church or restaurant, for example.
The owner would also have to notify the Board of Standards and Appeals
about any impending sales under the
variance.
All 19 public speakers said that
the variance should remain in place,
not only to protect the property and
community in question, but also other
properties in similar situations. If the
variance restriction was removed,
other owners could ask for something
similar, creating a domino effect.
“It’s a good process. It works. We
shouldn’t be changing it,” Joe Amoroso, zoning chair at the Kissena Park
Civic Association, said. “The variance
the way it is right now is fine.”
“The property in question is located within a R2/R2A area covered by a
Rickert-Finlay covenant, which allows
for only single-family homes. To operate this business in the location is
a privilege rather than a right,” Rhea
O’Gorman, president of Station Road
Civic, said. “The clause as it is written
now has no effect on the owner’s ability to run his business. What it does do
is it may lessen the amount of money
he may get in the event of a sale. It

Booze Burglary At
Bohemian Beer
Garden
By Jackie StrawBridge
Staff Writer
Three thirsty thieves struck Astoria’s
neighborhood beer garden last week.
Security footage captured a late
night booze heist at the Bohemian
Hall and Beer Garden on 24th Avenue.
The burglars can be seen in images released by the NYPD with their shirts
pulled over their heads, but leaving
their faces entirely visible.
According to police, two men entered the premises by scaling an outer
wall and stole bottles of vodka, tequila,
bourbon, scotch, rum and gin. Another remained outside as a lookout.
Damages totaled roughly $1,000,
said Andrew Walters, general manager
of Bohemian Hall and Beer Garden.
“It was funny but not funny,” Walters said. “It’s stupidity run rampant.”
According to Walters, the burglars
damaged one of the beer garden canopies in their attempt to scale the wall,
and after the robbery, spent about 20
minutes trying to figure out how to
climb their way out.
“In recent memory, we’ve never
had any kind of break in or anything
of that nature,” Walters said.
He added that the establishment
has already enacted new security measures
to safeguard against future break-ins.

LI Real Estate Firm Opens In Queens
BY JOE MARVILLI
Staff Writer
One of Long Island’s biggest realestate companies has opened its first
location in Queens.
On Sept. 4, Daniel Gale Sotheby’s
International Realty cut the ribbon
on its first sales office in the Borough,
located at 35-16B Francis Lewis Blvd.
in Flushing. While the business had
launched a few weeks earlier with a
soft opening, the ceremony served as
its big introduction to Queens and its
communities.
The ribbon-cutting was preceded
by a reception, attended by about 80
people, featuring food from Papazzio
Restaurant and Caterer in Bayside.
The new office looks to match the
Borough’s diversity, as it has 30 experienced agents representing many
cultures. The agents speak a variety of
languages, including Arabic, Greek,
Italian, Mandarin, Croatian, Taiwanese and Fuzhounese.
“We believe Queens is an emerging
market. The higher prices in Manhattan
and Brooklyn are driving a lot of professionals and homebuyers to Queens.
We believe this is the next stop,” Flushing Sales Manager Donna Rubertone
said. “We’ve been doing business here
for years, but we really felt it was important to have an office here as well.”
Rubertone added that the company
selected Francis Lewis Boulevard in
Flushing because it is in the middle of
the area where Daniel Gale Sotheby’s
does its business.
“We felt this was really the heart
of where most of our business came
from,” she said. “Although, we do
business in all of Queens. We’ve had
a listing and sale in Long Island City.
We go all the way to Little Neck as well
and everything in between.”
Founded in 1922, Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty is a $2.5
billion organization that has 23 sales
offices throughout Long Island and
now Queens, with close to 600 sales
associates in its employment. The
company features a relocation division, an award-winning marketing
and technology department, a development-marketing group, commercial
and rental divisions and a Wells Fargo
Home Mortgage connection.
“This is a particularly exciting opening for Daniel Gale Sotheby’s, as we
expand our presence into the outer
boroughs of New York City,” President
and CEO Patricia Petersen said. “While
we’re well known on Long Island for
our real estate expertise and professionalism, we’ve been steadily growing
our number of listings and transactions
in Queens, so much so that it made
sense to take the next step and establish
a neighborhood sales office.”
According to spokesperson Kath-
In Flushing, (from left) Daniel Gale Sotheby’s general sales manager Deirdre O’Connell, Flushing sales manager Donna Rubertone, president and CEO Patricia J. Petersen and COO Tom Calabrese cut the ribbon on the company’s first Queens office.
leen Caputi, Daniel Gale Sotheby’s
Queens office has already attracted
many walk-ins from neighbors, buyers and people who are considering or
want to list their property.
Despite its recent opening, the office is already taking an active role in
the Queens community. It is an active member of the Bayside Business
Association, attending a Sept. 11
dinner/fundraiser for first responders. It is also hosting a networking
event on Oct. 23 and taking part in
an event sponsored by St. Nicholas
Church in October.
Daniel Gale Sotheby’s is a member
of the Queens Northeast Chapter of
the Long Island Board of Realtors as
well. Rubertone is going to be named
as a director for the group.

Van Bramer Wants Heavier Hit And Run Penalties
By Jackie StrawBridge
Staff Writer
alty in New York City for leaving the
scene of a collision without reporting.
Advocates joined Van Bramer to
call for speedy passage of the bill at a
City Council hearing last week.
“When an injury occurs as a result
of a collision, the failure to report the
accident delays the response of emergency personnel and could be the difference between life and death,” Van
Bramer said.
“This legislation…will not return
my child, but will help to make penalties stronger for those people who
don’t think before running from their
responsibilities,” Bravo’s mother Marta Puruncajas said in a statement released last week.
The bill has the support of City
Council transportation committee chair Ydanis Rodriguez
(D-Manhattan),
the NYPD and nonprofit
Transportation Alternatives.
Attorney Steve Vaccaro of Vaccaro and White,
legal advocates for crash
victims and leaders in the
movement against New
York City traffic violence,
called this legislation “a
welcome step” while also
noting some factors that
after the cause and complicate hit
and runs.
In a Borough already plagued by
traffic deaths, three fatal hit and runs
have inspired legislative action.
Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer
(D-Sunnyside) said he would champion legislation that would double
penalties for hit and run drivers, after
three pedestrians – 19-year old Luis
Bravo, 20-year-old Karen Pheras and
64-year-old Kumar Ragunath – were
killed in his district within 18 months.
The legislation specifies civil penalties for drivers who leave the scene of
an accident without reporting it, with
fines of up to $5,000 for drivers who
run from a collision that results in
death. There is currently no civil pen-
Van Bramer (center) speaking
death of Kumar Ragunath.
For Vaccaro, effectively deterring
hit and runs would require hit and
run penalties to exceed those of drunk
driving or driving without a license, so
that drivers who cause collisions under those circumstances are discouraged from fleeing. This bill approaches
that goal by setting substantial civil
penalties, he said.
Vaccaro also applauded the bill’s
effort to demand some personal obligation from hit and run drivers. A
civil penalty “would make drivers like
that open up their wallets,” he said.

Delay In A Train
Station Renovations
By LuiS gronda
Staff Writer
Renovations at some A train stations are going to take a little longer
than expected.
The subway platforms at 88th and
104th Streets are expected to be reopened to straphangers on Sept. 29,
more than a month after the originally-announced target date.
According to the Metropolitan
Transportation Authority, the reason
for the delay is so the transit agency
can perform some extra work on the
subway stations.
“This delay is due to our need to
make additional, unanticipated repairs to badly deteriorated steel girders supporting the station platforms,”
MTA spokesperson Kevin Ortiz said
in an email.
The work on the Rockawaybound side of the platform began last
year and was expected to be finished
on Aug. 18 of this year. Renovations
would then begin on the Manhattanbound side soon afterwards.
That will now begin on Oct. 4, a few
days after the Rockaway-bound platform is finished. Ortiz said that work
is expected to take about 14 months
to complete, which would put it at a
December 2015 completion date.
Ortiz also said new costs have not
yet been calculated to include the unanticipated repairs.

Flushing Fire Set During Murder-Suicide
BY JOE MARVILLI
Staff Writer
A blaze that broke out in an apartment in Flushing was part of a murder-suicide that took place early Tuesday morning.
The fire in Apartment 6C at 14340 Roosevelt Ave. was noticed by a
neighbor around 4:50 a.m. When
firefighters broke down the door to
the apartment 15 minutes later, they
discovered three bodies with stab
wounds. The three victims were from
the same family.
An investigation by the NYPD revealed a note in Korean by Jong Lee,
50. The letter talked about the multiple
problems in his life, though it did not
go into details. It also revealed Jong’s
intent to kill his wife, Sung Lee, 54,
and his son, Brian Lee, 15. Brian was
a junior at Brooklyn Technical High
School. The note was discovered in
Jong’s pocket, singed by the flames.
After killing his family, Jong set
the apartment on fire before taking
his own life. His body was discovered
with a slash to his throat. It is still unclear how Jong started the fire.
The fire was contained to the apartment and put out shortly before 5:30
a.m. No other residents of the building
were hurt. However, three firefighters
went to New York Hospital Queens
with minor injuries.

Insurance Refuses To Cover Broken Sewer Line
BY JOE MARVILLI
Staff Writer
When Thomas and Linda Sindoni
paid for the Water and Sewer Service
Line Protection Program offered by
the Dept. of Environmental Protection in March 2013, they expected the
insurance company to hold up its end
of the bargain. One year later, though,
insurance company American Water
Resources is refusing to pay to fix a
broken sewer pipe.
According to the Beechhurst couple, American Water Resources has
stymied efforts for them to find the
underlying cause of their broken sewer pipe and to get the issue fixed and
covered. The company claims that the
J E W E L R Y
broken pipe is a pre-existing condition it does not have to cover.
On July 4, 2014, more than a year
after their coverage began, the Sindonis got a routine maintenance check
from Hands of Gold Sewer Corp.
Hands of Gold discovered that the
sewer trap in the Sindonis’ garage was
backed-up. The employee suspected a
broken sewer pipe.
Once this happened, the couple
called American Water Resources,
who sent a technician from Liberty
Water and Sewer, LLC. The Liberty
technician snaked 50 feet and determined that the line was not broken.
However, he did not do a camera inspection.
“He didn’t have a camera, he went

around the pipe and jetted out alongside the sewer pipe,” Linda said. “I
called American Water Resources.
I said I needed a camera inspection.
They refused.”
On June 17, On Drain Sewer Service arrived to remove the rubber jetter hose and perform a camera inspection. The footage revealed that they did
have a broken sewer pipe. The service
cost the couple $1,000.
Despite the evidence, American
Water Resources denied the claim for
a broken sewer pipe as they said it was
a pre-existing condition.
“They put nothing in writing. They
didn’t even tell me it was pre-existing.
They told [State Sen. Tony Avella (DBayside)],” Linda added. “I am paying

a premium. You fix a pipe if it’s broken.”
The Sidonis said they are prepared
to take legal action against the company if the issue remains unresolved.
“This is the second occasion within
the last three months where a homeowner has contacted American Water
Resources and American Resources
said ‘no, it’s a pre-existing condition,
we’re not going to do anything about
it,’” Avella said. “If you follow that
reasoning, then every condition will
be a pre-existing problem. To say that
it’s a pre-existing condition is baloney
and totally unacceptable.”

Four 9/11 First Responders Reminisce
About Tragic Day
BY LuIS GRONDA • Staff Writer
The first responders, all of
whom are Queens residents, sat
down at North Shore-LIJ’s Queens
WTC Clinical Center of Excellence
to share their personal stories and
talk about the treatment they have
received at the center as a result of
the Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act.
The four first responders at the
press conference were: Patricia
Workman, 76, from Flushing, Joe
Ramondino, 52, who lives in Maspeth, Christian Foggy, 67, a Jamaica resident and John Licato, who
resides in Howard Beach.
Workman was a Red Cross volunteer at the time the planes crashed
into the Twin Towers. She spent two
years providing assistance to other
first responders. In 2008, she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma after
she asked for treatment for several
fractures and other health concerns.
Ramondino was at Ground Zero
for two months, lending a helping
hand to whatever was needed, including joining the bucket brigade to
help remove buckets of debris from
the site. He was diagnosed with lymphoma last year and has been a patient at the center since earlier this
year.
Foggy was an NYPD electrician
during that time. He spent about
two months helping transport electric generators to Ground Zero and
connecting light and other needs
to that area. Foggy was diagnosed
with prostate cancer in 2012, but
was declared cancer-free in 2013.
Licato is now a retired NYPD officer, but during that time, he was
in the 110th Precinct in Corona.
He was at Ground Zero for several
months. In 2012, he felt a lump on
his neck. A few months later, he
was diagnosed with neck cancer.
Licato has been a patient at the
center for just more than a year.
At the press conference, Dr.
Jacqueline Moline, the Vice President and Chairperson of population
health at the hospital, said the work
they do at the center is their way of
giving back to the people who put
their lives on the line to try to help
people in a terrible situation.
“We had selfless individuals,
thousands upon thousands of
folks, be volunteers and all they
thought about was getting involved
in the rescue and recovery efforts,”
she said.

As the 13th anniversary of 9/11 passes, four first responders gathered in Rego Park on Tuesday to remember that tragic
day and discuss the health issues they have been battling as a
result of being at Ground Zero.

with their diseases.
“When you hear that ‘c’ word, it’s
a life changing diagnosis. It’s a life
changing word,” Licato said, referring to his neck cancer. “I’m saying,
‘my god I’m 50 years old and I’m
going to die.’ It’s just not supposed
to happen, you’re supposed to live
another 20 to 30 years.”
Ramondino described getting
that news as “devastating” but also
had a more positive outlook on his
situation.
“It’s just something you have to
accept and move on with it. Things
could always be worse,” he said.
“We’re still here. A lot of people lost
their lives that day. We’re the lucky
ones.”
They were also asked if they had
any sort of regret about going to
Ground Zero considering the diseases they are battling now. In hindsight,
they all said they would do it again.
“I’m sure all of us would respond again in the same way because that’s what we were there
for,” Foggy said. “Whenever there’s
a situation such as the worst of human behavior, from that moment
on, you saw the best of human
behavior, where everybody came
together.”
The day after the press conference, Workman was scheduled to
go to Washington D.C. to testify
before a congressional committee on 9/11-related illnesses. She
said she planned on relaying her
story about her illness and urged
lawmakers to continue funding for
programs like the WTC center at
North Shore-LIJ.

Remembering The Lives Lost On 9/11
BY JORDAN GIBBONS
Staff Writer
On the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, nearly
3,000 innocent lives were taken in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, the
Pentagon and United Airlines Flight 93, which
crashed in Pennsylvania.
The City and the nation united together in
the aftermath of that tragic morning to rebuild
and to console the families of lost loved ones.
Even now, first responders are still suffering
from illnesses related to the recovery efforts
that occurred for years after the attacks.
Mayor Bill de Blasio was at Ground Zero earlier this week to pledge his support to reauthorize the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act for Sept. 11 first responders.
“It’s so appropriate that we remember 9/11
in so many ways. It’s so appropriate that we
have the powerful memorial near this site that
people go to and reflect upon those they lost,
they reflect upon what we owe to their memory,”
de Blasio said. “Let’s do more than just reflect
upon those who are still alive, who we can help
right now, whose suffering we can ease. Let’s
devote ourselves to them. Let’s walk hand in
hand with them. Let’s get our Congress to do
the right thing and support our heroes.”
This week marks the 13th anniversary of
that day and there are several events taking
place throughout the City where the victims
and heroes of that day can be remembered
and honored.
The annual anniversary ceremony at the
9/11 Memorial Plaza at the World Trade Center
begins at 8:39 a.m. and will have six moments
of silence signifying when each tower was hit
and collapsed, when the Pentagon was struck
and when Flight 93 crashed. The names of the
victims of both the 1993 and 2001 attacks will
be read. An honor guard made up of members
from the FDNY, NYPD and Port Authority Police will also be in attendance.
For the first time, family members of the
victims of both attacks are exclusively invited
to visit the National September 11 Memorial
Museum to tour the museum from 7:30 a.m. to
9 p.m. on Sept. 11. The museum will be closed
to the general public.
The “Tribute in Light” will begin at 6 p.m. as two
beams of blue light will shine into the sky until sun-
rise Friday morning, symbolizing the Twin Towers.
In Bayside Hills, residents are gathering at
the 9/11 memorial plaque at Bell Boulevard
and the Horace Harding Expressway at 7 p.m.
for the Bayside Hills Civic Association’s candlelight tribute. Bring candles.
Another candlelight vigil will be taking place
at Juniper Valley Park between 77th and 78th
Street at 7:30 p.m. Attendees are asked to
bring a chair, blanket, flag and flashlight.
On Saturday Sept. 13, St. Michael’s Cemetery in East Elmhurst is hosting its two-mile
Remember Me Run in honor and celebration
of the first responders who sacrificed their lives
on 9/11. The run begins at 3 p.m. and will be
followed by a memorial service to remember
the first responders. There is a $25 registration
fee and the proceeds will be donated to the
Christopher Santora Scholarship Fund, which
was started in memory of a FDNY firefighter
who lost his life on 9/11 after only two months
on the job. For more information, visit www.stmichaelscemetery.com/remember-me-run.

Sustaining Senior Health With Parker Jewish
Learning never stops, and with
age comes wisdom. In no arena are
these truisms more important than in
health.
Fortunately for today’s proactive
seniors, a number of options are
available to sustain
good health and prevent illness, as well
as to manage emergencies.
“The whole push is
to keep people out of
hospitals,” said Lina
Scacco, director of
outreach at Parker
Jewish Institute, a nonprofit dedicated to senior care at every level
and located at the Queens-Nassau
border.
According to Scacco, much of this
mission involves providing community members with resources and education. Such resources might include
home health care and day programs
or information on Medicare, Medicaid and other insurance.
Community health programs available at the institute include adult day
health care with door-to-door transportation, while sub- and post-acute
care options include therapeutic recreation, dining and nutrition services,
and a 24-hour question hotline.
The Parker Jewish Institute also
has partnerships with area hospitals
and universities.
“We’re exposing the community to
what’s out there,” Scacco said. “Making growing older not so scary.”
“That education is going to be
able to help them better inform themselves on what they should be doing
to stay healthy,” Scacco added, noting that
Parker Jewish staff
regularly hold presentations on fall prevention, nutrition and diet
at health fairs.
For seniors with
adult children, familycentric education can
be important to health as well, Scacco said.
“People usually aren’t paying attention until something goes wrong,
and [then] it becomes very overwhelming,” she explained. By keeping informed, family members “can be
better prepared as a crisis strikes.”
The Parker Jewish Institute’s
social workers provide supportive
counseling to patients and their families, to help them negotiate aging
and illness, as well as institutional
and community living.
When a senior’s health does falter, he or she can seek inpatient and
rehabilitation services for recovery.
According to Scacco, the Parker
Jewish Institute has 320 longterm
beds and 180 shorterm beds and its
facilities are designed with a pleasant
ambiance in mind. Renovations are currently
at work to keep the
rooms and floors stateof-the-art and “reflective
of their home environment,” Scacco said.
Once an individual is
ready to return home,
Parker Jewish creates
a transition plan to ease
him or her back into the
home environment.
Scacco also noted
a psychological component to maintaining
day-to-day health.
“Some of us get
caught up in, ‘we know
how to take care of
ourselves,’” she said.
“We don’t always want
to take someone’s advice.”
However,
she
warned, it is important
to keep open communication with medical

Parker Jewish Honors Seniors/Grandparents
BY JOE MARVILLI
Staff Writer
An institute in New Hyde Park celebrated both seniors and grandparents from Queens and Long Island
last weekend.
On Sept. 7, Parker Jewish Institute for Health Care and Rehabilitation hosted both the Savvy Senior
Award Day and its own Grandparents Day, two events that honored
the contributions of the surrounding
neighborhoods’ elder populations.
Parker Jewish has been holding
a Grandparents Day celebration for
about 10 years now, with new activities and games added on an annual
basis. Besides Parker Jewish seniors, the event also invites families,
staff members and other members of
the community to join in.
“We do this every year. We really promote all seniors, all aspects
of community. That’s our mission, to
get people to feel good about themselves,” Lina Scacco, director of corporate outreach and development,
said. “We as a society need to embrace that it doesn’t matter what age
you are. You can be creative. You
can express yourself in any shape or
form.”
The fun and games at this year’s
Grandparents Day included a petting
zoo, a dunk tank, tattoos, a man on

Prep Outdoor Equipment For Winter And Spring
How well your outdoor power
equipment works the next time you
need it could depend on how you winterize and store it. Here are hints that
can help:
Do your winterization tasks in a
safe work zone. Before you start, set
up a safe work zone. Work only in a
well-ventilated area that is away from
heat sources, sparks or flames.
Collect your outdoor power equipment that you intend to store. This
might include a lawn mower, generator, string trimmer, chain saw, edger,
power washer, blower, chipper, splitter or other tool that uses a small engine to do outdoor work.
Read the owner’s manual. Always
consult your owner’s manual for directions on how to properly winterize
and store your equipment. If you can’t
find your manual, check the manufacturer’s website.
Be safe. Before servicing or repairing any outdoor power equipment, disconnect the spark plug and
battery cables. Wear safety glasses
and gloves to protect against harmful
chemicals and debris.
Drain the fuel. Stored equipment
should not have fuel in its tank. Many
fuels today contain ethanol, which absorbs water and may phase separate,
causing operating problems. If there
is fuel in the tank, remove what remains. Run the engine until it stops.
Store leftover fuel properly. Gasoline should be stored no more than
30 days without being treated with a
fuel stabilizer. Use a sealed container that is approved for fuel storage.
Always keep fuel out of the reach of
children and away from heat sources
or flames.
Check and clean your equipment.
Check for loose belts or missing or
damaged guards. Check and tighten
all screws and nuts. Grass, leaves
and dirt that have accumulated on the
equipment should be removed.
Lubricate, sharpen and charge as
needed. Check the oil level and blade
condition. Change the oil now if needed. Get your lawn mower blade sharpened so it will be ready for spring. Inspect the spark plug, replace it and
add clean engine oil. Check the air filter and clean or replace as needed. If
your equipment has a removable battery, take it out and store it in a warm
spot. If you have a battery charger,
you may want to charge the battery
before storing.
Take your equipment in for servicing if needed. A busy lawn care season may have left your equipment
worn and in need of repair. The winter season is when repair shops are
the least busy, so if your equipment
needs a tune-up or additional servicing, now is a good time to take it in.
Store your lawn care equipment carefully so it will be ready to restore your
lawn when the weather warms.
Find a safe storage space. Store
your equipment away from pool
chemicals, cleaners or fertilizers—
anything that could cause corrosion
from spills. Your storage area should
be cool and dry, and your equipment
should be out of the reach of children
and pets.
Properly store your supplies. Avoid
spills in your storage space by storing
your lawn care and outdoor supplies
properly. Leftover lawn care materials
should be stored in sealed containers, so pests such as rodents are not
drawn to your storage space.
Find your winter equipment and
place it in an accessible location. Dig
out the snow shovels, snowblowers
or throwers, scrapers, ice melt or rock
salt. If you are out of winter supplies,
now can be a good time to stock up
before you need them. Place your
winter equipment and supplies in an
accessible location.
“Well-maintained equipment will
last longer and save consumers
money. Winterizing and storing outdoor power equipment properly over
the winter means that when spring
arrives, your equipment will be
ready,” explained Kris Kiser, president and CEO of the Outdoor Power
Equipment Institute (OPEI), an international trade association representing power equipment, small engine,
and utility vehicle manufacturers and
suppliers.

Tips To Give Homes An Annual Checkup
There’s no better time than now
to give your home the attention it deserves. Give it an annual checkup before cold weather arrives to help add
comfort, save energy and cut home
maintenance in the long-run.
When inspecting your home’s
windows and doors, here’s what to
check:
Inspect interior and exterior finishes: over time, paint and stain can
weather away. Flaking or peeling
may mean that it’s time to refinish or
replace the unit. When replacing windows or doors, consider factory prefinished wood or fiberglass options
from Pella, or vinyl options that don’t
need painting or staining, to save time
and money.
Look for damaged exterior surfaces or signs of leaks: Check your sprinkler system to make sure it’s watering
your lawn and landscape, not soaking your windows or doors. Cracked
or deteriorated wood may be a sign
of water penetration. Leaks can linger
and affect interior walls, floors or ceilings, so look closely for discoloration
or other moisture signs.
If you spot a problem, track its trail.
For example, discolored trim around
a window might actually be caused by
moisture entering a ways away. With
ping can affect the performance of your windows and
doors. Open the windows
and clean the opening with
a soft brush, like a dry paint
brush or vacuum attachment. Do the same for sliding patio doors.
Try opening and closing:
Open your windows and
doors to make sure moving
parts work, and units close
properly. Replace worn or
broken parts.
Inspect
weather-stripping:
Re-attach
loose
weather-stripping
around
windows or doors, and replace material that’s ripped
or torn.
Replace or repair broken
locks: If locks feel loose or
don’t work smoothly, reGive your home an annual checkup before the place them. Keep windows
and doors locked when
rough winter weather arrives.

Inspect weep and breather holes:

Clear blocked holes of dirt or debris
with a wire or toothpick.
Check exterior sealants and caulk
on and around windows and doors.
Pay attention to areas susceptible to
rain, water and extreme sunlight. Remove damaged material and reapply
sealant.
In coastal locations, rinse exterior
metal like exterior aluminum trim or
cladding: Rinsing exterior metal parts
three or four times a year can help
extend the life of your windows and
doors by minimizing corrosion from
salt spray or fog.
Feel for signs of air leakage
around the window or door: Improperly installed windows or doors can
be drafty, decrease energy efficiency,
and allow unwanted moisture into
your home. To help save on utility
bills and keep your home more comfortable year-round, replace drafty
old, leaky windows with new, ENERGY STAR-qualified Pella windows
installed properly.

Pinterest for design inspiration or Pella.com/news to connect with a Pella
representative for tips on caring for
your windows and doors, or choosing
new replacements.

LEISURE
Godwin-Ternbach Looks Back At Warhol
BY JOE MARVILLI
Staff Writer
Queens College’s Godwin-Ternbach
Museum will welcome students back for the new
semester with an exhibit
on a cultural icon.
The museum will look
at the work of experimental artist Andy Warhol in
“Andy Warhol’s PhotoAesthetic and Beyond.”
The exhibit, which will
include photographs
and silkscreen prints
from the Andy Warhol Foundation as
well as loans from
other collections,
will look at the
artist’s pho-
tography style and its place in the genre
of Pop Art.
“We had planned to do this show
some years ago when we first got the
donation of photographs from The
Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual
Arts, but it didn’t work out,” Amy Winter, Godwin-Ternbach’s director, said.
“Then last year, we got an additional
donation of seven silkscreen prints,
and at the same time, our new Modern
and Contemporary Art professor, Eddie Powers, is a Warhol expert - he’s
lectured on Warhol at MoMA - so it
was a perfect time to do it.”
These recently donated silkscreens include portraits of American icons, such as Muhammad
Ali and Sitting Bull, as well as
landmarks like the Brooklyn
Bridge and Cologne Cathedral.
Warhol made the prints by
taking a Polaroid portrait
image, silk-screening it onto paper or
canvas and adding silkscreen ink in
a bright array of nearly psychedelic
colors.
Winter added that despite Warhol’s
efforts to make art that anyone would be
able to afford, his work on canvas sells
for tens or hundreds of millions.
“I find it somewhat ironic that his
stated intention and feeling was that
‘art should be for everyone’ and his use
of printed media, advertising, brands,
celebrities, news and inexpensive
methods of production,” she said. “But
affordable it is not, for the average person. As one of our labels reads: ‘While
few of us can afford an original Warhol
artwork, we can buy a can of soup.’ I
wonder what Andy would say to the
way things are now – art is once again
only for the rich and famous.”
Warhol’s work also fits into modern
culture, particularly today’s media
saturation and celebrity worship, both
of which the artist displayed through
his work nearly 50 years ago.
“He and his art tell us so much about
our contemporary culture even while
being so accessible to the average person,” Winter said. “He understood the
significance of fame, and created images
of celebrities, for instance, that many
critics have discussed in terms of his
perceptiveness (and somewhat ironic
understanding) of the way we worship
celebrities and fame.”
“Andy Warhol’s Photo-Aesthetic and
Beyond” opens on Sept. 11 and runs
until Nov. 1. There will be an opening
reception at the museum on Sept. 18
from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Long Island City’s Secret
Theatre To Stay Open
BY JAckIE StRAwBRIdgE
Staff Writer
The show will go on.
Long Island City’s Secret Theatre
reached its fundraising goal of $10,000
last week, two days before its deadline.
The campaign, called “Can You Keep
the Secret” and hosted on fundraising
site Indiegogo.com, garnered almost
$11,000 in total.
According to Richard Mazda, founder and artistic director of the Secret
Theatre, financial problems arose due
to building fines and permits.
Mazda described feeling both “humbled” and “elated” by the results of the
fundraiser. He said the funds will go
towards upgrades and renovations such
as adding a restroom to the Secret’s
smaller venue space.
“What’s important about it, that
I’d like people to take away, is it’s not
just the money,” Mazda said. “It’s the
support that gives me mental energy
to move forward, to make sure that we
correct any problems, that we survive
for a long time.”
According to Mazda, part of making this success sustainable involves
continued fundraising. He pointed
to a planned fundraiser hosted by
the Hunter’s Point Civic Association,
which HPCA president Brent O’Leary
confirmed is slated for the end of this
month or early October.
“When I heard that the theater
was in trouble, I called [Mazda] immediately,” O’Leary said. “The Secret
Theatre is one of the cultural assets of
Long Island City and Western Queens,
so we wanted to make sure that it
stayed alive.”
Mazda also noted that the theater
might modify its production model
by, for example, increasing weekday
classes and activities to make up for
slow periods during summer and winter
vacations.
For now, Mazda said, he is looking
forward to continuing Secret Theatre
work.
“If you look at the fundraiser as a
kind of vote of confidence, I think that
we were answered loud and clear that
the community wants us and they want
us to survive,” Mazda said.
He added, “now, if anything, I feel
more engendered to give back.”

New Yorkers will get a chance to
see how movie magic is made on our
City streets at “New York on Location,” next Sunday in Astoria.
The free event, presented by the
Museum of the Moving Image, Theatrical Teamsters Local 817 and Kaufman Astoria Studios, will bring the
public behind the scenes of film and
TV outdoor shooting. Throughout the
day at the museum, the Kaufman Astoria Studios backlot and surrounding
streets, spectators will tour star dressing rooms, special effects trucks and
light and camera equipment, while
stunt professionals perform. Food will
also be available from movie catering
trucks.
“All those names that you see at
the end of a film – what are they doing? The museum has devoted itself to
that,” said Carl Goodman, executive
director of the Museum of the Moving Image.
“It’s wonderful to learn about
what they are doing when they’re
making movies on the street. But
even more exciting is that we actually
can meet the people who do it – it’s
almost like a living exhibit,” Goodman continued.
The Museum of the Moving Image originally presented this event in
2007. Goodman said the museum was
glad for the opportunity to revive it
now that there is increased space from
their new courtyard and the Kaufman
Astoria Studios backlot, which both
opened in 2013.
He also noted that Queens is a
particularly appropriate host for a
celebration of film production, as the
home to Kaufman Astoria Studios
and Silvercup Studios, and where so
many prominent shows and movies
have been made, such as “Orange is
the New Black,” “Men In Black” and
“Sesame Street.”
For Tim Gallin, an event organizer
and veteran stuntman, “New York
on Location” provides film and TV
craftspeople an opportunity to give
back to the City.
“It’s a good thing for the people
of New York to have an understanding of what all the equipment and
all the people in their neighborhood
are doing,” Gallin said. “We respect
your neighborhood and we want to
say thanks for letting us come in and
work.”
Gallin also noted that he invited
many young and emerging stuntpeople to volunteer for “New York on
Location,” because the event offers a
chance to network and show off their
skills.
According to Gallin, some featured stunts will include high falls,
martial arts and car demonstrations.
Goodman also noted that spectators
can look forward to deluges of movie
snow, rain and wind, and can have
a movie star moment with makeup
demonstrations in deluxe trailers.
“New York on Location” will run
from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Sept. 21. In
the case of rain, the event will be
rescheduled for Sept. 28.

Q
The Tale Of Joe Hosey
A former Queens Tribune
reporter has found himself at
the center of a fairly gruesome
trial out in Chicago's south
suburbs.
Joseph Hosey worked for
the Tribune in the early-1990s,
under editor David Oats, before moving to Illinois.
As a reporter for Patch.com,
Hosey broke the story last year
of a double murder in Joliet,
south of Chicago. Hosey got
a hold of police reports before
any other reporters and used
the detailed info from those
reports to tell the tale of a
gruesome double murder.
The stories led to an investigation on how Hosey got a
hold of the police reports - 500
city officials swore they never
released them. Hosey was
ordered to reveal his source.
He refused, and is now facing

heavy fines and jail time as a
debate over Sunshine Laws in
Illinois rages.
QConf is following the case
closely, as Hosey's case not
only could affect the future of
Sunshine Laws - which call for
transparency in government but also because he's an alum
of this publication.
Good luck, Joe!

Droning Over The U.S. Open
Feighery was charged with
reckless endangerment, violation of local law and failure to
comply with a sign, according
to reports.
Instead of joining tennis
fans for a beer in the Borough
that night, Feighery – and his
drone, which the police confiscated – spent an unceremonious night at the 110th precinct
station house.

Something Stinks In Queens
According to this survey,
you might want to cover your
nose the next time you are in
Malba.
The neighborhood was
found to be the smelliest in
Queens, according to the website brickunderground.com,
which conducted the survey
of the stinkiest areas in the five
Boroughs.

based off the population of the
2010 census.

If you can’t get tickets, just
get a drone.
That was the thinking behind one Yonkers resident’s
scheme for a sneak peek at the
Serena Williams-Flavia Pennetta semi-final match at the
U.S. Open last Wednesday.
Police spotted the drone
hovering near empty courts
early in the evening, and had
its pilot, Daniel Feighery,
in custody before Williams’
match point.
Musicians OF QuEEns
ing that time period, there were
29.9 odor-related complaints
per capita in Malba. Second
on that list is Lindenwood,
the southern Queens neighborhood adjacent to Howard
Beach, with 22.75. Third is
Nesponsit with 21.9, after
them is St. Albans with 17.8
and rounding out the top five
is College Point with 17.2.
Data was also posted for the
least smelly neighborhoods in
Queens, with North Corona,
Corona and Woodside found to
have the least smell complaints
during that year.
X-Mas Back
In Bayside
It may still be 90 degrees
outside, but Councilman
Paul Vallone (D-Bayside) is
already making plans for the
holidays.
Vallone announced recently
that he is bringing back the
Santa Claus Parade that has not
marched down
Bell Boulevard
since 2004.
Bayside resident Ben Fried
began organizing
the event in 1995 and raised
funds by asking local merchants to chip in $10 each to
cover the expenses. In 2005,
no one was able to organize it
so it fell to the wayside.
Fried passed away last year
at the age of 98 and was honored by Vallone when a portion
of 43rd Avenue was renamed
after him.
While we here at QConf
think it’s a great idea to get the
community together during
the holidays, the only thing
that would make this idea
better is if Vallone volunteered
his time to be Ol’ Saint Nick
himself and toss candy canes
to his constituents.
Some bands create music
that you want to listen to with
your headphones on at night,
sitting back, closing your
eyes and focusing all your
attention on the intricacies
and subtle melodies that
come up. Penny Louis fits
this category wonderfully.
With touches of keyboards,
strings and tight, almost
jazzy guitar lines, this western Queens group writes
songs with many layers to
unveil.
The five-piece has slowly
evolved since its first two
members, vocalist/keyboardist Pauline and percussionist
MC, started jamming together
in 2012. The two were friends
before they were collaborators, a situation that was
true for most of the group’s
origin. MC was friends with
a violinist, May, who joined
Penny Louis. While John, the
bassist, discovered the band
through Facebook videos in
early 2013, he too had run into
the band when they played a
restaurant during his dinner.
Guitarist Nikholai is the latest
addition to Penny Louis.
For Pauline, Penny Louis
challenged her both on stage
and off. She said she struggles with her stage presence
during live concerts as well
as with creating a sound
that stands out from the
thousands of bands already
in existence.
“Personally, it would
be the parts where I'm not
singing or playing the guitar
or keys. My band would tell
you that I was horrible at
talking to the audience and
outside of thank you's and
how are you's, I'm just pretty
much speechless,” she said.
“Another thing would be
creating an original sound
that sets you apart from other
musicians who are already
out there.”
Despite these challenges,
Pauline said she loves playing live and getting the
audience’s attention with the
band’s songs, no matter how
the crowd chooses to experience and enjoy the music.
“Ironically, I do love being
on the stage and singing my
songs, swaying my hips a
little, nodding my head, closing my eyes and feeding off
of the crowd's energy,” she
said. “Whether they're dancing like a looney or as quiet as
a church dweller, it's amazing
to have an audience.”
Penny Louis also pushed
Pauline to write more often,
using time at work on the train
to create sounds in her head
that she can bring back to the
band for them to build on.
The group is working on
its debut EP/album, a process
that has been both frustrating and inspiring for Pauline.
She compared the nature of
writing and recording a song
to an oil painting. The final
product is not discovered or
noticeable at the beginning
of the road.
“I have learned so much
because of it. I am more attentive, I am more open-minded
and I can pinpoint what I
wanted to add or tweak,”
she said. “I also think that
the band improved after we
started recording - we are
more aware of what we are
playing and how it would
sound together.”
Penny Louis will play at
Choga Restaurant in Manhattan on Sept. 24 and The Bitter
End in Brooklyn in October.
