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.” Over at Vivaldi Ristorante, also in Bayside, U.S. Rep.

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. Reporters Luis Gronda and Jackie Strawbridge contributed.

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.” Reach Joe Marvilli at (718) 3577400, Ext. 125, jmarvilli@queenstribune.com, or @JoeMarvilli.

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-

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-

Op-ED

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.

In YOur OpInIOn Border Crisis Blaming Games

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. robert Larosa, Whitestone

Trouble At The Red Cross?

To The Editor: was a hurricane victim as I live a block from the ocean in Rockaway Park for many years and suffered a lot of mental suffering during the hurricane. The Red Cross got $300 Million in 2012 by many naive suckers for hurricane victims, yet denied many any financial aid until two NYC papers exposed the Red Cross. It screwed over 1000 hur-

ricane victims with lies. I also was denied anything as I went all the way over there near 11th Ave. and 47th, asked questions then told to contact Catholic Charities who told me it doesn’t give any financial aid to anyone. Has your free community paper ever exposed the Red Cross for screwing many disaster victims? eric Kemer, Rockaway Park

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 Maureen Coppola Advertising Director Howard Swengler Major Accounts Manager

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. The building had been vacant since Sandy hit southern Queens and Rock-

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.” Reach Jackie Strawbridge at (718) 357-7400, Ext. 128, jstrawbridge@ queenstribune.com or @JNStrawbridge.

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

Burglars stole multiple bottles of liquor from Astoria’s Bohemian hall and Beer Garden last week.

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. Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS. The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers Website at www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or texting their tips to 274637(CRIMES) then enter TIP577.

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. â&#x20AC;&#x153;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,â&#x20AC;? Van Bramer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This legislationâ&#x20AC;Świll not return my child, but will help to make penalties stronger for those people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think before running from their responsibilities,â&#x20AC;? Bravoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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 â&#x20AC;&#x153;a welcome stepâ&#x20AC;? 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 19-year old Luis Bravo, 20-year-old Karen Pheras and 64-year-old Kumar Ragunath â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effort to demand some personal obligation from hit and run drivers. A civil penalty â&#x20AC;&#x153;would make drivers like that open up their wallets,â&#x20AC;? 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. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This delay is due to our need to make additional, unanticipated repairs to badly deteriorated steel girders supporting the station platforms,â&#x20AC;?

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. Reach Luis Gronda at (718) 3577400, ext. 127, lgronda@queenstribune.com or @luisgronda.

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 Jongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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 Jongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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. Reach Joe Marvilli at (718) 3577400, Ext. 125, jmarvilli@queenstribune.com, or @JoeMarvilli.

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 Sindonisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 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. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a camera, he went

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.

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. The quartet described how they felt when they were first diagnosed

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. Reach Jordan Gibbons at (718)357-7400 Ext. 123, jgibbons@queenspress.com or @ jgibbons2.

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 professionals and to Parker Jewish Institute offers community accept that keeping health programs that include adult day health healthy is a learning care. process. “Everyday we redefine what is 76th Ave., New Hyde Park. Admis‘old’ for ourselves. It’s all about per- sion forms are available 24/7 at spective,” Scacco said. www.parkerinstitute.org.

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 stilts juggling, a Wild West shootout,

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. - North American Press Syndicate

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.

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.

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. Reach Joe Marvilli at (718) 357-7400, Ext. 125, jmarvilli@queenstribune.com, or @JoeMarvilli.

Step Behind The Scenes At ‘New York On Location’ BY JAckIE StRAwBRIdgE Staff Writer

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.” Reach Jackie Strawbridge at (718) 357-7400, Ext. 128, jstrawbridge@ queenstribune.com or @JNStrawbridge.

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. Reach Jackie Strawbridge at (718) 357-7400, Ext. 128, jstrawbridge@ queenstribune.com or @JNStrawbridge.

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. Game, set, match, Queens cops.

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. The study collecting 311 odor-related complaints between July 2013 and 2014, based off the population of the 2010 census. The survey found that, dur-

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.
