Report: LIC Home To State’s Dirtiest Power Plant By Jackie StrawBridge Staff Writer The Environment New York Research & Policy Center released a report last week indicating that the TC Ravenswood Power Plant in Long Island City is the State’s most significant carbon polluter. According to the center, Ravenswood produces about 2.3 million metric tons in emissions, which is the equivalent of about 500,000 cars. These statistics were collected from U.S. Dept. of Energy 2012 emissions data. Ravenswood generating station is a 2,480 megawatt with the capacity to service 21 percent of the City’s peak energy load. Rose Marie Poveromo sits on the Community Board 1 environmental committee. In response to the ENYRPC report, she said, “I believe it.” The plant, known colloquially as Big Allis, has sparked moderate concern from residents throughout the years regarding noise, water and air pollution. “All [power plants] have to become clean and green,” Poveromo said. “We who live in the communities [are] suf-

fering from air pollution and noise pollution.” Dorothy Morehead, vice chair of the Newtown Creek Alliance and chair of the environmental committee for Community Board 2, which neighbors the plant, said “emissions from power plants has long been a concern.” A TransCanada representative disputed the findings of the report. “Their conclusion is based on estimated data, not actual data. Based on real data supplied to the regulator, our CO2 emitting rates at the Ravenswood Generating Station are significantly lower than what the report claims,” the spokesperson said. “TransCanada will continue to comply with all EPA and DEC emissions requirements and we intend to fully comply with the new proposed emissions guidelines under the EPA’s Clean Power Plan,” the spokesperson said. The June 2014 Clean Power Plan aims to cut carbon emission from the power sector by 30 percent nationwide below 2005 levels by 2030. The report also looked at combined data from the State’s five dirtiest plants, which alongside TC Ravenswood in-

Mayor Releases Management Report By JOe MarViLLi Staff Writer Mayor Bill de Blasio put out a status update for New York City last week. The administration released Mayor’s Management Report for Fiscal Year 2014 on Sept. 17, analyzing the performance of City agencies between July 1, 2013 and June 30, 2014. The report, which spans the end of Michael Bloomberg’s tenure as mayor and the first six months of de Blasio’s time, covered everything from Sandy recovery to traffic incidents and more. In terms of the City’s continued efforts to recover from Superstorm Sandy, work is underway. Build It Back has started construction activity for 101 buildings throughout the City. The Dept. of Small Business Services also approved $4.98 million in total grants and $1.27 million in total loans for businesses recovering from Sandy. According to the Dept. of Parks, the number of parks rated acceptable in overall condition has gone up to 87 percent, four points higher than 2010. In the City’s 30 largest parks, there were 126 major felonies for Fiscal Year 2014, one lower than 2013. However, that is 33 more felonies than there were in 2012. PS 132 in Laurelton was added to the Schoolyards to Playgrounds pro-

gram, which renovates schoolyards and opens them to the public during non-school hours. While major crime felonies did not increase or decrease overall, murders decreased from 369 to 320 between FY 2013 and FY 2014. Major felonies are down in schools as well, dropping over the last year from 699 to 654. However, crime has increased within the New York City Housing Authority. There were 5,328 felonies committed in NYCHA housing in FY 2014. That number is the result of a steady climb from 4,090 felonies in 2010. Traffic fatalities were also up for the fiscal year, with 112 deaths for motorists and passengers, an increase from 93 last year. The amount of DWIs shot up as well, with 10,123 people arrested in FY 2014. The report also offered some statistics on the Queens Library. The average of weekly scheduled hours at a Queens branch is 39.6, consistent with the last three years. Only five percent of libraries in Queens are open seven days a week. Queens Library also had a circulation of 15,759 items for 2014. In that same fiscal year, 806,128 people attended programs at the library.

clude facilities in Barker, Athens, Oswego and Northport, and found that this group contributes 32 percent of Statewide power sector emission, and six percent of total Statewide emissions – relatively low figures compared to data from other states. “Although New York has taken significant steps to cut down its carbon pollution, this report clearly demonstrates that more action must be taken to promote and invest in clean energy within our State,” State Sen. Tony Avella (D-Bayside) said in a statement released by ENYRPC last week. The report comes amid both a Citywide and International push for climate change awareness and action. This weekend, hundreds of thousands

of people took to the streets in Manhattan for the People’s Climate March, an activism event advocating action on climate change. Tuesday morning, Mayor Bill de Blasio spoke at a U.N. summit meeting on climate change, where he warned against “reckless” consumption of resources, according to published reports. Last week, the City Council passed a bill introduced by Councilman Costa Constantinides (D-Astoria), whose district shares a waterfront with the plant, with the goal of reducing emissions 80 percent by 2050.

AG Candidate Talks Transparency, Environment By Jackie StrawBridge Staff Writer As the Nov. 4 general election approaches, Republican candidate for State Attorney General John Cahill said he wants to bring credibility back to what he sees as a politicized office. Cahill has worked in the public sector as Dept. of Environmental Conservation Commissioner and Chief of Staff to former Gov. George Pataki. He is running against incumbent Democrat Eric Schneiderman, who is seeking a second term. “When you look at what’s happened over the last 16 years, the Attorney General’s office has been used frankly as a platform for higher office,” Cahill said during a conversation at the Queens Tribune office, noting that both Eliot Spitzer and Gov. Andrew Cuomo won the Governor’s seat after having served as New York Attorney General. “[If] you’re deciding not to bring a case or you decide to bring a case and you’re thinking about, well, what does this mean for my next political career, that undermines the credibility of that office,” Cahill added. Cahill cited the Moreland Commission and its surrounding controversy as evidence that his opponent is not suited for the job. The anti-corruption Moreland

Commission, formed by Cuomo in 2013, has caused outcry throughout the past several months after the Governor blocked some of its subpoenas and then disbanded it amid questions about whether he was doing so to protect allies. Schneiderman has been largely silent on the issue, telling reporters it would be inappropriate for him to comment while Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara’s investigation into the commission’s conduct and dissolution is ongoing.

Although Cahill acknowledged mental and energy issues, citing the preservation of open space and pro- some concerns with hydrofracking, tection of drinking water under Pataki such as methane release and disposal

of wastewater, he argued that with proper regulation, access to affordable natural gas would bring manufacturing jobs upstate and “transform” local economies. Other issues close to the candidate’s heart include population flight from Upstate New York, passing the DREAM Act and prosecuting fraud on Wall Street as opposed to suing banks, he said. Overall, Cahill said he feels good about his chances, although he is more optimistic for support upstate than in the City. “You sense the same energy in Upstate New York right now – that people are absolutely fed up,” he said. “I think this year is going to be the year that people really come out. There’s a lot of energy up there.” An Aug. 20 Quinnipiac poll showed Schneiderman with a 51 to 29 percent lead over Cahill, although for both candidates, more respondents answered that they “haven’t heard enough” than said they have a favorable opinion. The Cahill campaign filed an internal poll last week with the Board of Elections that showed a much closer race, with Schneiderman leading Cahill 33.5 percent to 29.7 percent.

Silvercup West Plans Back In Action By Jackie StrawBridge Staff Writer Delayed plans for an East Coast answer to Hollywood got rolling again last week. Community Board 2â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Land Use Committee held a public hearing last Wednesday on permit renewals for Silvercup Studiosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; stalled Silvercup West development, a $1 billion, six-acre complex planned for the Long Island City waterfront. Silvercup West will boast eight soundstages, three towers with retail, residential, office and studio space, as well as a public waterfront esplanade and plazas. Silvercup has committed that a portion of residential space will be set aside for affordable and low-income housing. The special permits involve height wavers for the towers and design wavers for the developmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waterfront open space, as well as for a Silvercup logo sign facing Manhattan on the esplanade. Developers are also applying for authorization for a 1,400car accessory parking garage. Silvercup West has been in the works since 2006. The City Council approved the plan in August of that year, but the project stalled due to property already on the site, which includes a New York Power Authority generating plant and a landmarked Terra Cotta building. Marcie Kesner, who presented the renewal applications at the public hearing, explained that per a legal agreement between

Silvercup and NYPA, the generating plant is temporary and the facility will be decommissioned and removed to clear the site for Silvercup West. Silvercup is also restoring the Terra Cotta building, according to Kesner. For the moment, they have not designated a specific use for it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As the project develops, as a critical mass occurs, then there will be interest in using it,â&#x20AC;? Kesner said. Regarding CB2â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s upcoming vote on the renewals, chairman Joe Conley said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we never know until the board votes, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing there substantial that would indicate otherwise, that would say thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something to vote no on.â&#x20AC;? If CB2 approves, the plans move to the City Planning Commission. Because Silvercup is seeking renewals and not running through the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure again, the process is expected to move at a clip. Silvercup estimates that the development

would be completed in 2017. Reach Jackie Strawbridge at (718) 357-7400, Ext. 128, jstrawbridge@queenstribune.com or @JNStrawbridge.

Ugly And Divisive Politics

In Our OpInIOn

Overcrowding Concerns Need To Be Addressed A public hearing held earlier this week to discuss a proposal for three new Success Academy charter schools has rightfully raised the ire of education advocates in the Borough, especially since the creation of the new schools would not ease the continuously-burgeoning issue of overcrowding in Queens schools. The part of the proposal that raises the most concerns for teachers and parents is the plan to co-locate these charter schools in existing educational institutions, as opposed to creating a new space for them. Schools in Queens are already filled to the brim with students. Most schools in Queens are already suffering from problems tied to being over-capacity, not having enough seats for students, forcing them to hold classes in trailers outside the buildings. These are nothing close to optimum conditions for learning. It is part of the reason why we have heard such outcries over plans for co-locations in City schools over the last few years. With so many issues surrounding the City’s educational system and testing procedures causing uproars with parents, it seems as though students are already at a disadvantage when it comes to learning. We should be working to eliminate these disadvantages, not add to them, to ensure that the next generation is given the best education possible. If the City hopes to introduce new educational institutions anywhere – but especially here in Queens – these institutions must be planned to help reduce the overcrowding. Without addressing these issues, adding new schools to the Borough does nothing but create more problems for students.

In YOur OpInIOn Library Policies Close Access

To The Editor: hat full page of malarkey from the “removed” Queens Public Library trustees appears to be an advertisement (paid by the QPL?). It not only castigates Queens BP Melinda Katz for bringing much needed reforms to the institution but also insinuates that “Freedom of Thought” will be lost at the library. This is the height of hypocrisy in light of the QPL’s blatant blocking of some audio files you may want to save to your flash drive. The issue is the selective blocking of intellectual content. This includes podcasts of radio programs from Gary Null, the most listened to radio show in the world and Amy Goodman, an award winning investigative reporter not just a repeater.

Like to save “Homeless Joe” or “Who Would Jesus Bomb” from the free and legal Christian music site www.freedomtracks. com; forget about it but gangster rap - no problem. A QPL technician advised me that to make these podcasts available for saving just like all the others, authorization by upper management was required. Listening to audio podcasts at the library is not an option, where the library supplies no listening device and/or insufficient computer time is allotted. At a later date, a spokesperson said that the blocking was due to a technical issue. (It remains unresolved.) Fortunately, the New York Public Library makes all the podcasts equally available for saving to your flash drive. The

Roosevelt Island branch is convenient via the F train and welcomes Queens residents wanting to download the QPL blocked audio files. Clearly, the QPL is unfaithful to American Library Association’s guiding principles of “intellectual freedom and equitable access to information.” Regrettably, we may have to wait for the replacement of QPL upper management for uncensored access like that of the NYPL. Thankfully, Queens Borough President Melinda Katz is making excellent choices in replacing the “removed” library trustees. P.S. - Much to its credit, downloading legitimate software is permitted at the QPL. Bill Herbert Richmond Hill

To The Editor: hen did the political arena become so ugly and divisive? Calling them “extreme conservatives,” Governor Andrew Cuomo blasted conservative Republican New Yorkers earlier this year, telling them they have no place in New York State. More recently Nancy Pelosi said: “Civilization as we know it today would be in jeopardy if the Republicans win the Senate.” In ugly campaign ads and lies, the NYS Democratic Party has repeatedly slammed Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino as an “extremist” and perhaps it won’t be long before congressional candidate Grant Lally is labeled a right wing extremist. The “extremist” mantra is one of the three big lies that many incumbent Democrat politicians use as their reelection campaign strategy to paint Republicans as bigoted and dangerous, in order to win votes by demonization. The three lies repeated incessantly are that Republicans are extremists, racists and only care about the rich. Goebbels said, “If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it” and Democrats have been repeating these lies for nearly 20 years and unfortunately they’ve stuck. It’s straight out of Saul Alinsky’s playbook, the forth rule: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” Since when did the political arena become so ugly and divisive? By and large, the great modern partisan divide took off in the aftermath of the United States presidential election in 2000, between Texas governor George W. Bush and Vice President Al Gore. The election results hinged on Florida,

where an extremely close race ended in weeks of legal battles over the recounting of votes. A Supreme Court decision ended the recount awarding the Florida electoral votes and the presidency to Bush. The Left screamed “unfair,” that the voters, not the courts should have decided the election. Although he disagreed with the Supreme Court verdict, Gore ended his campaign “for the sake of unity as a people and the strength of our democracy” and stated, “Partisan rancor must now be put aside.” Bush declared that the “nation must rise above a house divided.” The extreme progressives are an outspoken minority who believe they should make the rules for all of us. They believe they know best that the minimum wage should be $15 per hour; that because Specialized High Schools are not diverse enough, the tests need to be dumbed down; that all school children will learn best with a universal one-size-fits-all curriculum; that everyone will be safer if cops react to violent crime rather than confront it before it occurs, that bigger, more expensive government is better for society, and the list goes on and on. With the help of the media and academic elites, the progressive left creates the myth that Republicans are the bad guys. If the majority of Americans learned the truth and voted, the extreme progressives would be an endangered species. As Senator Frank Padavan used to say: “You’re all Republicans, you just don’t know it.” Phil Orenstein, President, Queens Village Republican Club

Harrison has been with the Police Dept. for 17 years, beginning her career at the 103rd Precinct in Southeast Queens then the 102nd Precinct, which covers Woodhaven, Richmond Hill, Ozone Park and Kew Gardens. She was then promoted to Sergeant and transferred to the 104th Precinct, which is based in Ridgewood and also covers Middle Village, Maspeth and Glendale. She then went to the Police Academy for three years during her time as a sergeant, serving as an instructor for up-and-coming officers. She was then promoted to lieutenant and went to the 109th Precinct, based in Flushing, then worked at the 112th before getting promoted two months ago. Harrison said she worked under Chief Diana Pizzuti as a personnel officer. Speaking from the experience of having her under her wing, Pizzuti had some complementary words for Harrison. “When Captain Conforti was going to move to the next precinct and we had to fill the spot here, I could think of no one better than Captain Harrison,” she said. “She’s very poised, dedicated, family oriented. She’ll be very receptive to the challenges here as well your concerns.” Harrison then introduced the cops of the month award that every precinct council gives out at every meeting. She chose to call it the “cops of the summer” award for this meeting as it covered the months of July and August. The Council does not meet during those months. The five officers that were honored are Sgt. Frank DiChristina, PO Mark Finelli, PO Joseph Vella, PO Michael Carswell and PO Brian Benedict. Carswell received the award for catching a young man in the act of drawing graffiti on a storefront, Vella and Finelli were honored for catching a person in possession of cocaine and rejecting a bribe from the suspect and DiChristina and Benedict got it for stopping a robbery in progress.

Queens College Talks Tech At Biz Forum

BY JOE MARVILLI Staff Writer Opportunities in the City’s growing technology ecosystem were discussed at a business forum breakfast last week. Queens College hosted the breakfast on Sept. 19 in the Student Union Ballroom, where a packed house listened to a keynote address by Jukay Hsu, the founder and executive director of Coalition for Queens. After an introduction by the college’s new president, Felix Matos Rodriguez, the Flushing-raised Hsu talked about technology’s impact on New York’s economy, how to spread that success to Queens and the jobs that tech companies are looking for people to fulfill. Hsu said that even the most basic computer science knowledge, such as learning how to code, can transform an individual’s life or his or her community, if they use these skills and an idea to create a product or company. “Technology is really changing the U.S. economy, New York’s economy as well. It’s one of the most empowering things in the world,” he said. “Right now, if you learn to code, you can create new companies and products and solve problems that you see in your daily life or community.” Hsu’s nonprofit, Coalition for

Rep. Israel Hosts Senior Solutions Seminar

BY JOE MARVILLI Staff Writer Selfhelp Clearview Senior Center transformed into a venue of information and experts during a seminar this week. On Sept. 23, U.S. Rep. Steve Israel (D-Melville) hosted a seniors solutions seminar at the Bayside senior center. The older adults had a chance to talk with several agencies meant to help them with various aspects of their lives. The expo featured an assortment of information, programs and pamphlets from government departments, not-forprofits and other organizations, many of which were visited by the dozens of seniors who came out for the event. The Office of Unclaimed Funds helped seniors find money owed to them and walked them through the

process to claim their funds. To see if some cash should be coming your way, visit www.osc.state.ny.us or call (800) 221-9311. Certified Financial Planner Henry Montag of the TOLI Center East warned seniors to look into life insurance that may have been purchased from the mid-80s to 2005. Seniors who purchased Flexible Premium Life Insurance are at risk of those contracts expiring prematurely, unlike the more expensive Whole Life Insurance. To learn if you are at risk or what to do if your insurance does expire, call Montag at (516) 695-4662 or email Henry@ thetolicentereast.com. The Dept. of Veteran Affairs was on hand, speaking to senior veterans about their benefits, what they qualify for and a special monthly pension benefit called Aid and Attendance. Other groups at the seminar included Ronald Fatoullah and Associates, an elder law, estate planning and special needs solutions service. The Dept. of Finance, Dept. for the Aging, the American Heart Association and Chapin Home Adult Day Health Care Center also attended. Israel talked about what is being done to

help seniors on a federal level. He said that the aging baby boomer is one of the bigger problems facing the nation, as many more seniors will be using Medicare and social security with less young people working to pay for them. Israel said that removing some loopholes for big businesses might close the gap. “You gave this country all the freedoms we have. You gave this country the most prosperous economy we’ve ever had. You raised your family and paid your taxes, you should not be asked to pay more for Medicare,” he said. “Instead of subsidizing oil companies, we

should subsidize our senior citizens.” Councilman Paul Vallone (D-Bayside) showed up to talk about some work at the City Council level, specifically a new senior taskforce that is being assembled. “We’re starting a whole new taskforce. What is the City’s role when you need that critical help?” he asked. “You are surrounded by some of the best professionals. Ask them those questions. Take advantage of days like today.” Reach Joe Marvilli at (718) 3577400, Ext. 125, jmarvilli@queenstribune.com, or @JoeMarvilli.

NYCHA Dominates Town Hall Complaints

By JoE MarViLLi Staff Writer The New York City Housing Authority was the focus of complaints from residents at a town hall meeting with elected officials. The public event, which took place

at the Pomonok-Electchester branch of the Queens Library on Sept. 22, gave residents a chance to talk with several City agencies as well as elected representatives. U.S. Rep. Grace Meng (D-Flushing), State Sen. Toby Stavisky (D-Flushing), Assemblyman Michael Simanowitz (D-Flushing) and Comp-

troller Scott Stringer showed up to talk to the packed crowd. Most of the ire in the room was directed towards NYCHA, particularly the state of Pomonok Houses. Residents loudly declared their frustration with the agency, particularly its downsizing policy, the lack of employees,

Shuttle Van Set For Seniors

By Luis Gronda Staff Writer

It will now be more convenient for seniors in southern Queens to get to where they need to go. A shuttle van will serve four senior centers, from Woodhaven to Rockaway, bringing them to places such as supermarkets, shopping centers, parks and back to the senior center. The new initiative was announced by Councilman Eric Ulrich (R-Ozone Park), along with Catholic Charities of Brooklyn and Queens, at a press conference outside the Howard Beach Senior Center on Cross Bay Boulevard. Ulrich allocated $25,000 in the latest City budget for a driver that will transport seniors at four centers within his district, including Howard Beach. The Councilman said the van for the seniors in his district is sorely

needed because public transportation in that area of Queens is not always reliable. “Wherever it is that they wanted to go that they currently cannot get to, we want to take them there,” Ulrich said. Edna Dzigas, president of the Howard Beach Advisory Council, facility employees and seniors from the center, thanked Ulrich for providing the seniors with the van. “We cannot tell you how much we appreciate this,” Dzigas said of the vans. There was one senior present at the event, Julia Nappi, who has already taken the van and gave it a very positive review. She said the ride was comfortable and safe, and described the inside of the bus as “posh” because it is carpeted. Nappi said it will improve the lives of seniors like herself. “It’s makes life easier for the se-

niors to go to these places and when we’re done, all we have to do is give him a call and he comes to pick us up,” she said. Nappi used the van to go to the Gateway Shopping Center in East New York before returning to Howard Beach. For now, there will be one driver, Daniel Persaud, that will transport seniors at four centers, located in Howard Beach, Rockaway, Ozone Park and Woodhaven. Ulrich said that if the initiative is successful, they will look to increase funding for more drivers at those senior centers. After the press conference, Ulrich received numerous thank yous from the Howard Beach seniors and they even cut a cake to celebrate the occasion.

the tendency for staff management to ignore problems and to even use transfers as threats to those who complain too much. One resident was reduced to tears over the continuously poor treatment she has received at Pomonok Houses. Meng said that residents should go to their elected officials, as the more grievances they receive, the better case they have when they go to NYCHA to get some changes done. One issue that Simanowitz said should be resolved in the near future is the installation of security cameras at Pomonok. The long-gestating security feature is due to be in place before the end of the year. At the town hall, Stringer also vowed to audit NYCHA in an attempt to improve the agency. “There are too many broken windows in NYCHA. We have to have a response also to lift people up so that everyone has an opportunity,” he said. “I promise you the audit we’re doing of NYCHA is going to be soup to nuts and very strong.” Stavisky, who has long battled to improve conditions at NYCHA, said she was looking forward to the results of the audit and thought it would be enlightening to the agency’s practices.

Film Fans Flock To

‘NY On Location’ Speeding cars, artificial snowstorms and elaborate costumes brought Hollywood to Astoria this weekend. “New York On Location,” a free event presented by the Museum of the Moving Image, Theatrical Teamsters Local 817 and Kaufman Astoria Studios, displayed the art of on location film and TV shooting for thousands of visitors on Sunday. The Museum of the Moving Image originally presented this event in 2007. According to Carl Goodman, executive director of the Museum of the Moving Image, 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, both of which opened in 2013. Throughout the day, spectators saw movie weather demonstrations, watched stuntmen perform high jumps and street fighting, visited star dressing rooms and wardrobe trailers and examined technical equipment, among many other activities. Mike Burke performed stunt driving in a parking lot neighboring the Kaufman Astoria Studios backlot. Burke has been stunt driving for more than 10 years, and has been working in motor sports for more than two decades. Burke said he grew up watching “Dukes of Hazard” and “Knight Rider” and that he feels

“very lucky and fortunate to follow my passion and do what I love.” “I’m living the dream,” Burke said. Of “New York On Location,” Burke said, “it’s great to get everybody aware of what we do in the film business, especially in New York, that we’re a big market, we’re a big player in the game.” Visitor and Astoria resident Amy Sauer said, “I’ve lived in the neighborhood for about 10 years and I’ve been very curious about the studio.” “We went through the star trailers and saw how celebrities live on set. That was fascinating and much bigger and more impressive than we expected,” Sauer added. Janine Squillari visited “New York On Location” with her four-year-old daughter, Addison. “[Addison] loves films and stuff like that so I thought she’d enjoy behind the scenes and seeing how they do things,” Squillari said. Addison added that her favorite part of the day up to that point was the makeup demonstrations at the star trailers. Volunteers at “New York On Location” ranged from young and emerging craftspeople to veterans of the business. Tim Gallin, an event organizer and stuntman, said that he particularly wanted to include stuntpeople new to the industry for the opportunity to network and show off their skills. Resident Katie Ritz is a filmmaker and actor who said she was looking forward to getting some insight into the industry.

“It was just a chance to see things on the next scale up of how we are already starting to make our own films,” Ritz said. She also noted that she was looking forward to “getting to talk to the people who do this every single day and get an idea of what their experiences are and why they do this.” “I think it’s kind of a cool community thing for people to see the beauty of what happens behind the scenes, because it’s easy to look at something on the screen and think, ‘oh, I can do that,’ or ‘that’s easy,’” Ritz added. “But when you see it like this, you see all the intricacies of behind the scenes. I think it makes it a little bit more special.” Reach Jackie Strawbridge at (718) 3577400, Ext. 128, jstrawbridge@queenstribune. com or @JNStrawbridge.

Jewish Community Weighs In:

Protesters Want ‘Klinghoffer’ Cancelled

By Jackie StrawBridge Staff Writer They gathered outside the Met to say, “the show must not go on!” About 400 protesters from across the City convened outside the Metropolitan Opera at Manhattan’s Lincoln Center on Monday to protest an upcoming production of “The Death of Klinghoffer.” Assemblyman David Weprin (DFresh Meadows) spoke before the crowd, while Borough President Melinda Katz and U.S. Rep Grace Meng (D-Flushing) both issued written support. “The Death of Klinghoffer” is an opera by John Adams. The Met plans to stage its production starting Oct. 20. The piece takes as its subject the 1985 hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruise ship by members of the Palestine Liberation Front and the murder of one of its passengers, a disabled Jewish-American named Leon Klinghoffer. Peter Gelb, Metropolitan Opera general manager, has stated that he regards the opera as a work of genius that handles a difficult subject. But protesters of the production argue that the opera places the terrorists on an equivalent moral ground as their victim, and thus justifies, even glorifies, the killing of Klinghoffer.

Jewish Community Weighs In:

As Rosh Hashanah Approaches, ‘Winter Is Coming’

By yossi and Mushky Mendelson Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, is celebrated at a most unusual time of year. At first glance, the fall is the diametric opposite of everything new. With the dying leaves and the chill developing in the air, all we can think about is that “winter is coming.” It actually feels like the beginning of the end of the year. From a biblical point of view as well, Rosh Hashanah is the “first day of the seventh month” the first month being that of Nissan, the springtime month in which Passover is celebrated. It would seem logical to celebrate the New Year in the spring, a time of renewal and rebirth, portent with hope for the possibilities of the year to come. Indeed, many cultures celebrate a New Year at this time; the Assyrian Kha b’ Nisan is now marked on April 1, the Persian Nowruz is still celebrated widely on the same date and the Babylonian Akitu was a week-long festival at the same time of year. So why is the Jewish New Year in the fall and why so serious? Most Jewish holidays follow the agricultural cycle and the autumn marks the end of that cycle. It is when the farmer gathers the harvest, the product of the past year’s toil and begins to think

about plans for the coming year. Accordingly, the day celebrated as the Jewish New Year is the sixth day in the Torah’s account of creation. On this day, scripture states, the first human was formed. As such, the difference is fundamental. A springtime New Year is filled hope for what the new year might bring, but it is out of our control. The autumnal New Year on the other hand is the time when we map out our farming plan for the coming year. It is when we consider our responsibility for what we will do in the coming year. Spring is about G-d and autumn is about humans. The religious New Year takes this agricultural phenomenon as emblematic of all of our interactions with our world, be those interactions spiritual, cultural or political. At this time, we are to take stock of the impact we are having or not having on our environment and ourselves. This year’s Rosh Hashanah will be a special one in Israel, marking the beginning of the sabbatical year called Shemitta, the seventh year when Jewish Law prohibits farming. It is to be a “Sabbath for the land.” The negative effects of climate change loom ominously; the human race is called to consider what our part in this problem is. How responsible are we being in our interac-

will be the sounding of the “Shofar,” a ram’s horn fashioned into a sort of bugle whose sound is powerful and stirring, prodding us to challenge the status quo.

Elaine Hajian Exhibit Comes To Botanical Garden By JoE MarViLLi Staff Writer The Queens Botanical Garden’s latest exhibit will lead you on a journey through an artist’s own evolution. “Elaine Hajian: The Evolution of an Artist” will open in the Gallery of the Garden’s Visitor and Administration Building on Sept. 30, displaying her varied work over the years. Diving into the creative scene of 1950s New York, Hajian studied and trained in a wide variety of art genres, inspired by the diverse offerings she encountered every day. Landscapes, portraits, modern abstractions and many more styles were used to express her experiences as well as her refusal to be restrained by the art establishment. “The pieces selected from her body of work are chosen to reflect the depth and breadth of her expanding vision and include landscapes, abstracts, portraits and experimental work,” Darcy Hector, director of marketing and development, said.

Not only will visitors get a chance to view Hajian’s work, but they will have a chance to learn from her directly during an En Plein Air workshop on Oct. 4. Running from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m., this introductory class will help artists enhance their artistic skills with charcoal and pencil drawing. “I know the joy of creating art based on the living landscape and believe this workshop will be a wonderful introduction to this time-honored approach,” Regina Forlenza, the Garden’s visitor services and public program manager, said. There is a $5 fee for the workshop and registration is required at www. eventbrite.com/e/en-plein-air-artworkshop-tickets-12475525633. You can see “The Evolution of an Artist” between Sept. 30 and Jan. 17, 2015. An artist’s reception will take place on Oct. 26 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Visitor and Administration Building.

“I hope the show will communicate my intimate vision of the world through color, movement, form and expression,” Hajian said. “Creativity is a vehicle of self-expression, and the love of beauty in all things has provided me a lifetime of tremendous happiness.” Reach Joe Marvilli at (718) 357-7400, Ext. 125, jmarvilli@queenstribune.com, or @JoeMarvilli.

Hall Of Science

Blinking, beeping and blaring, countless fun and fascinating sights and sounds battled for attention at the fifth annual New York Maker Faire, held at the New York Hall of Science on Sept. 20-21. Showcasing various scientific principles and ingenious creativity, it featured fighting drones, a wrist-mounted flamethrower, three-dimensional printers, a cell phone charged by compost and boots enabling the wearer to move along at 20-25 miles an hour with minimal effort, developed by Keahi Seymour. The BioBus that usually travels around the five boroughs introduced children to the incredible sights visible through handheld microscopes. Cyclists pedaled The Tick Tock Croc (five bicycles connected inside a crocodile shape) around the park each day and acrobats from Circus Warehouse demonstrated amazing agility as they practiced precarious poses while dangling from long lengths of purple fabric. A creative paradise for kids, it included outdoor tables under tents where they could carve rubber stamps, make soap with tiny toys inside, assemble simple wooden cars and create puppets from assorted machine parts. Indoors, a boy happily floated through the Hall’s lobby on a prototype hoverboard and another had his attention captured by one of the Hall’s regular exhibits, a screen that turns the actions of anyone in front of it into a series of undulating rainbows. An inventor showed off his extruder, enabling any 3D printer to print with chocolate sauce, while in a darkened room in the Hall, a scientist demonstrated white screens that revealed full-color photos when viewed through 3D-movie-type glasses. Elsewhere at the fair, people had fun watching small cars race, seeing artwork made from recycled materials and transforming comic book pages into pinback buttons. For more information about the fair, go to www.makerfaire.com.

If you’re hungry but busy in the Borough, you can get great meals all day long without stopping to sit down. Five Queens food trucks and stands won coveted Vendy awards this year in the 10th annual street food competition, which took place on Governor’s Island. Long Island City’s Ice and Vice and Corona’s Ricas Botanas Mexicana were finalists

in the “best dessert category;” Astoria’s El Rey Del Taco won a Vendy Cup and King of Falafel & Shawarma won a Master’s Cup; Bolivian Llama Party from Far Rockaway nabbed “Best of Market.” We here at QConf think this is great news, and cause to celebrate – but we’ll take any excuse to grab a chicken platter and pita from King of Shawarma.

Parks Blacksmith Wanted If you are looking for a job that gets your hands dirty, this opportunity offered by the City might be right up your alley. The Parks Dept. currently has a job ad out for a blacksmith. You could be the replacement for longtime Blacksmith Larry Hagberg, who recently retired after holding the position since 1984. According to the job listing, requirements for the 100kper-year job include “repair existing metal structures

and fencing, play equipment, vehicles, metal parts of carts, enclosures, sweepers and other equipment as needed.” The minimum experience is five years as a full-time blacksmith in the last 15 years or twoand a half years full-time plus experience being a blacksmith’s assistant. Perhaps a Queens resident or native can nail down the interview process and be the next person to wield their hammer as the Parks’ blacksmith.

JFK's Animal House

Investment firm Racebrook Capital will soon begin construction on The ARK at JFK, a multi-purpose animal handling and air cargo facility at John F. Kennedy International Airport. The vacant Building 78 will be transformed into what has been billed as the world’s only animal terminal, and the first USDA-approved full-service, 24-hour, privately-owned quarantine operation. The facility will focus on the import and export of horses, pets, cats, dogs, birds, exotic special animals, zoo animals and livestock. Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine will handle the veterinary hospital while The Spot Experience, who is partnering with Racebrook for the facility, will provide a team of veterinary technicians and animal behaviorists. The ARK is expected to transport about 70,000 animals a year. We are at QConf are confidant that JFK will be able to corral their new guests, since the TSA has so much experience herding airplane passengers as if they were cattle on a daily basis.

Music and performance has been in Sarah Glassman’s DNA for years, from her time in Kansas to her move to New York. While she was part of the theatrical and opera community, Glassman felt that something was missing, something that would allow her to pursue a more open road. “Everything was already scripted and practically set in stone. It was in 2007, here in Astoria, when I first really started pursuing the art of songwriting,” she said. “Once I opened that door, the words and melodies just started flowing. It was an overwhelming, yet unbelievable feeling, and I knew I had found my true calling.” Although she has transitioned to writing her own material, theater is still in her blood. It can be heard in her voice and song arrangements, specifically on “Toxic,” with its major piano chords and a pulsing beat. It is as easy to imagine the song being performed on Broadway or in a rock club. Glassman’s experience in productions like “Into The Woods” helped her budding music career not only by developing her voice, piano playing and versatility, but also by improving her songwriting discipline. “I think my experience on the stage has made me even more of a perfectionist, trying to master the arrangements of each tune I write, just as if it would be that of an orchestral score,” Glassman said. “My songs also tend to be not just about the tune, but more importantly the lyrics. The story.” Those stories will be unveiled in Glassman’s debut EP, “Toxic,” due out this No-

vember. The six-song record is an outpouring of emotion, as she sings about heartache, family problems and other drama she was going through at the time. Transforming these frustrations into songs was a cathartic experience, according to Glassman. “I feel so much better now that I got it all off my chest. Now, I just love playing the tunes, as each one is a chapter in my life,” she said. “I worked together alongside Dean Bohana at Rockgarden Studio in Greenpoint. Together, we created a cool, smooth rock/blues sound that has a lot of soul and honesty behind it.” Astoria has provided a solid foundation for Glassman, on which she has started to build her career. Moving to the neighborhood at the recommendation of one of her professors, Glassman fell for the intimate feel of the community. Nowadays, you can find her at many of Astoria’s bars and performance spaces. “I've played several neighborhood venues, and I also worked as the karaoke host at my favorite neighborhood spot, Cronin and Phelan,” she said. “Astoria has become a home for me, and I couldn't be more humbled by the love and support I've received.” With her debut EP on the way, Glassman plans to play at the LIC Bar in October and November, though she is still figuring out exact dates. She is also working on a mini-tour of the East Coast this fall.
