Pan Am Shelter Loses Contract With City
By Luis Gronda
Staff Writer
Just hours after Mayor Bill de Blasio came to Queens to announce a task
force to address issues with homeless
shelters, Comptroller Scott Stringer
announced that his office has rejected
two permanent shelter contracts, including the Boulevard Family Residence at the former Pan American
Hotel in Elmhurst.
Stringer cited a report released by
the Department of Investigation earlier this year, which highlighted the
poor living conditions of homeless
shelters throughout the five boroughs.
“I am rejecting two permanent shelter contracts which I will not approve
until my office receives assurances
that anyone staying in these facilities
will be safe, all outstanding violations
and complaints have been corrected
and all documentation that the requirements of the contracting process
were met. We simply can and must do
better on behalf of the 60,000 people,
including nearly 25,000 children, who
are under our care,” Stringer said.
There are no kitchens at the Pan
Am shelter, forcing some families to
buy meals on a daily basis.
In a statement emailed to the Queens
Tribune on Wednesday, a spokesperson for Samaritan Village said the violations were being looked into.
“We take the health and safety of
the residents at the Boulevard Family Residence very seriously,” the
Mayor Bill de Blasio announced the creation of the shelter repair
squad in Corona on Monday.
statement read. “Violations, however
identified, are being addressed expeditiously and we are committed to
ensuring the families we serve receive
the highest standard of shelter services
while assisting their transition to permanent homes.”
When asked about Pan Am at Monday’s press conference in Corona with
the Mayor, Department of Homeless
Services Commissioner Gilbert Taylor said they provide the families with
three meals and there are currently no
plans to build a kitchen.
“We don’t have a plan yet to install cooking facilities in that location.
We’re not certain that that would be
actually the best thing for us to do. But
we do make sure that every family who
is in shelter has either the facilities –
the facilities to cook their own meals,
or we will deliver meal – three meals a
day – for every family so that they are
fed, so that they have food,” he said.
At the press conference, de Blasio
said the City would disperse “SWAT
teams” throughout the five boroughs
to address issues at various homeless shelters. He announced that his
administration will send more than
a hundred workers from several City
agencies to resolve building, fire and
other violations at buildings that operate as a homeless shelter.
Speaking at the Corona Family
Residence in Corona, de Blasio said
the problem of homelessness in the
City has increased due to a number of
factors, including the Great Recession
earlier this decade and not enough
funding allocated to homelessness.
“Another key factor has been mis-
takes by the federal government, by
the state government, and even the city
government – choices – decisions that
unfortunately exacerbated homelessness. We’ve had a lot less in the way
of resources to address homelessness.
It’s not a surprise that homelessness
has increased in this city. So we’re digging out of a hole here, trying to protect so many families and individuals
even though there have been years of
disinvestment in all levels of government,” the Mayor said.
According to de Blasio, the shelter repair squads address outstanding
violations within seven days of it being identified and any major capital
projects that need to be done will begin within 30 days and be completed
by the end of this year. Examples of
problems that can be fixed within the
seven-day window, according to Taylor, are malfunctioning smoke detectors and window guards that need to
be reinstalled or further secured.
The homelessness problem in the
City was inherited by de Blasio, but
has seemingly gotten worse during the
first year of his term, with a recordhigh homeless population of 59,068,
a 10 percent increase from the year
before, according to City figures. The
mayor said that number is down to
about 56,000 today.

Mark Weprin To Resign From City Council
By Jordan GiBBons
Staff Writer
Councilman Mark Weprin (DOakland Gardens) will be resigning
within the next two weeks from his
seat as the representative for District
23, which he has held since 2010.
Weprin will be taking a position in
Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration
as the Deputy Secretary for Legislative
Affairs.
The Weprin family has had a strong
relationship with the Cuomo family
since Gov. Mario Cuomo was in office
and Weprin’s father, Saul Weprin was
the Assembly Speaker. Mark won his
father’s seat in the Assembly in 1994,
following his death.
“It has been my privilege to serve
the people and families of my neighborhood,” Weprin said in a statement.
“In the office of Gov. Cuomo, I will
continue to serve the people of New
York.”
Sources said that Weprin became
increasingly frustrated with his role in
the City Council as well as the progressive direction the Council is heading.

Doe Finds Site For New High School
By Domenick RafteR
Editor in Chief
After over a decade of searching for
a site, the city Department of Education has finally locked down a location
for a much-needed new high school in
Northeast Queens.
The Bayside Jewish Center, which
closed in February due to declining membership, is being sold to the
Schools Construction Authority to be
the site of the new school, according
to Councilman Paul Vallone (D-Bayside).
“It wasn’t a secret that the SCA
was looking for a site within our district, but as of today we’ve been notified that the purchase of the Bayside
Jewish Center is being finalized and
is under contract. There is no denying the overwhelming demand facing
our district with regard to a long overdue high school for our students and
community, but there is also never going to be a perfect place to build one.
However, I am glad to see millions
of our taxpayer’s dollars being spent
within my district for the betterment
of our students,” Vallone said in the
statement.
After the center announced its closure in February, Community Board 7
District Manager Marilyn Bitterman
suggested the site for a public school,
though not specifically a high school,
that he wanted to see the SCA
engage the community in the
plans for the school.
“What is critical now is making sure that the community and
community boards are involved
in every step of the way and that
we work closely with the SCA
to minimize the impact to the
surrounding neighborhood,” he
added.
The Jewish Center location, at
203-05 32nd Ave. is adjacent to
the Bayside High School athletic
fields and only four blocks from
Bayside High School itself.

Hunter’s Point Art Project Stirs Debate
By Daniel Offner
Staff Writer
The City Economic Development
Corporation approached members of
Community Board 2, last Thursday, to
request a letter of support for a proposed art installation that is included
in plans to develop a waterfront park
along 30-acres of property in Hunter’s
Point South,
The project, which has been dubbed
“Phases of the Moon,” was awarded to
renowned artist Nobuho Nagasawa,
who presented her plans to illuminate
the peninsula with a luminescent art
piece.
“When I went to the site, I was really blown away from the beauty of
the vista,” Nagasawa said. “During the
daytime you have a different view, but
I wanted to create something for the
evening hours, where you could see
some kind of magic.”
Using a natural phosphorescent
material, which she said would require
no maintenance, Nagasawa’s plan is for
a naturally glowing attraction at dark.
Yet, despite the proposal, several
members of CB2 voiced concerns. Not
because of the artwork, but due to the
process in which the EDC selected a
commissioned artist.
“The process was, frankly, unsatisfactory,” CB2 Chairman Pat O’Brien
said. “The EDC did present at the last
land use meeting. However, we did express dissatisfaction with the process.”
According to the EDC, Susan Randolph Fine Arts was selected as art curator for the project through a Request
for Proposals and was responsible to
identify a New York City-based artist
with a proven track record for creating
engaging, public artwork.
Nine artists were selected based
on their ability to successfully complete projects for exterior and interior
space, experience with large scale public artwork, method of viewer engagement and stylistic sensibilility.
Michael Koontz, an architect with
Thomas Balsey Associates development firm, said the EDC is hoping to
begin construction of Nagasawa’s project by the end of the summer. Koontz
said construction of the entire Hunters Point South development could
take anywhere from 30 to 36 months
to complete, with plans of completing
5,000 housing units – 60 percent of
which will be affordable for low/moderate income families – by 2018.

Zoning Text Amendment Vote Delayed
By luis GrOnDa
Staff Writer
The Queens Borough Cabinet Board
did not vote on a text amendment that
would affect many homeowners still
rebuilding from Superstorm Sandy
on Monday, because it did not have a
quorum.
Monday night’s meeting at Borough Hall focused on a Citywide
Flood Resistance Text Amendment,
which would remove barriers that are
in place by current zoning regulations
and allow homeowners to rebuild
their property to its elevation prior to
Sandy and be resilient in a way that is
consistent with coastal areas.
The amendment was proposed by
three City agencies: the Department
of City Planning, the Department of
Housing Preservation and Develop-
ment, and the Mayor’s Office of Housing Recovery.
But the vote on the amendment
had to be postponed, as the board did
not have quorum, or the minimum
amount that is required by law to have
the vote.
According to Sharon Lee, spokesperson for Borough President Melinda Katz, the attendance needed to
reach quorum for this meeting was 19,
though that is not the set amount for
every vote at this board. That number
varies depending on the issue, according to Lee.
The board is chaired by Katz and
is made up made up of chairpersons
and district managers of each community board. Not enough were present.
There were three council members
present at the meeting as well, Elizabeth Crowley (D- Glendale), I. Daneek

Miller (D- Jamaica) and Paul Vallone
(D-Whitestone).
The leaders of community boards
10 and 14, both of which represent
coastal neighborhoods that were vastly
affected by Sandy, were in full support
of the change.
Community Board 13, which represents areas in Southeast Queens, such
as Rosedale, also supported the amendment, but requested that City Planning
and Build it Back have a separate meeting with civic groups from the Southeast
Queens neighborhood to address issues
with homeowners from that area.
A City Planning representative said
they would work to attend the Rosedale
Civic Association meeting later this
month to meet with residents.

Homeless Deserve Good Shelter
Sunnyside Yards Will Shine
We applaud the move by City Comptroller Scott Stringer to deny a contract to
Samaritan Village to operate the homeless shelter at the former Pan American Hotel
in Elmhurst for five years.
When the shelter opened last year, there were questions about whether or not
the Pan Am was an appropriate place to house homeless families. An audit by the
Department of Investigation in March cited numerous health and safety problems
at the shelter, and the lack of a kitchen in each unit as required by City law.
It’s great that Mayor de Blasio is organizing a “task force” to take on problems in
homeless shelters, which he announced this week in Corona, but the Pan Am was a
shelter his administration approved. And although they presented the Pan Am shelter
as a temporary solution to a homeless crisis, it is clear the Department of Homeless
Services wanted it to become a permanent one.
For a multitude of reasons, the number of homeless in the city has skyrocketed in
recent years. The City is required by law to house them. They deserve to be housed
in appropriate living conditions, not be warehoused in temporary situations like
hotels. We call on City Hall to provide safe, healthy and legal shelter for those who
need it.

Op-ED
Mayor de Blasio’s War On Renters
BY JOSEPH STRASBURG
M
ayor Bill de Blasio
recently declared war
on the rental housing
industry by supporting tenantbacked State legislation that
would cut off the life blood of
the City’s existing rental housing. Perhaps the Mayor does
not realize that the ultimate
casualties, if his proposals were
to be adopted, will be renters,
the City’s economy and his own
housing plan.
The Mayor’s proposals,
straight out of the tenant playbook, would eliminate rent
increases when apartments
become vacant, prohibit the
deregulation of stabilized
apartments and limit incentives
for apartment and building
improvements.
The sources of income that
the Mayor would eliminate are
precisely what keeps stabilized
housing alive. They were enacted by the State Legislature
because rent increases provided
by the City Rent Guidelines
Board were insufficient to meet
ever-rising building operating
costs. Long-term, building operating costs have increased by 5-6
percent per year, while the RGB
has allowed rents to increase by
only 3 percent per year.
To make matters worse, last
year, Mayor de Blasio’s RGB allowed only a 1 percent increase,
when costs increased by 5.7
percent, and looks ready to set
even lower increases, maybe
even a rent freeze, this year.
The Mayor does not seem to
recognize that it takes money to
operate rental properties, a cost
that keeps increasing primarily
because of increases in City
real estate taxes and water and
sewer charges.
These municipal charges
make up one-third of building
operating costs and are set to
increase once again in July.
Mayor de Blasio could have
taken action to keep rents
affordable by limiting the
municipal levy on property
owners. Candidate de Blasio
campaigned on eliminating the
“hidden tax” in water bills, but
Mayor de Blasio kept that hid-
den tax and increased it.
Instead, to keep rents low,
Mayor de Blasio has decided
that owners have been overcompensated in the past and are
now making too much profit.
There is no basis for making that
judgement across the board.
Everyone knows that not all
tenants are poor, just as not all
owners are rich. Nor was it the
purpose of the rent stabilization
law to regulate profits. We tried
that under the old rent control
system which decimated the
housing stock and left as its
legacy apartments that still rent
for less than $100 per month.
It’s time to finally acknowledge that rent regulations are a
cause of, and not a cure for, the
City’s affordable housing crisis.
Rent regulations have been in
place in New York City for more
than 70 years and they have done
nothing to stem the affordability
crisis. In fact, the greatest rent
burdens are carried by tenants
of the City’s one million rentstabilized apartments.
The affordability crisis is not
a result of excessive rents, but

a problem of inadequate incomes. The only way to address
this problem is through rent
subsidy programs targeted for
the neediest tenants. In other
words – protect the tenants,
not the apartments.
The Mayor understands
the need for rent subsidy. His
administration has asked owners to help house homeless
families using rent subsidies
and the industry is ready to
help. However, even if there
are not enough rent subsidies
available, the answer is not to
freeze rents.
The simplest and most practical way to keep rent increases
low is to limit the tax burden
on regulated apartments. However, the same elected officials
who are calling loudly for
limiting rent increases – and
even rent freezes and rollbacks
– have for years been voting to
increase the tax burden on the
City’s stabilized renters.

businesses. Half of this housing
is owned by small business
owners utilizing other small
neighborhood businesses. This
housing also generated nearly
$3 billion in City taxes to fund
municipal services like police,
fire and sanitation.
Instead of playing to his base,
the Mayor should join with all
stakeholders to recognize that
we need to protect tenants,
not apartments. As long as the
City needs more tax revenue,
rents will have to increase.
The only way to protect our
neediest tenants is for tenant
advocates, the Mayor and other
elected officials to join with the
industry to support an expansion of the existing rent increase
exemption programs to cover
all income eligible renters. At
the same time, rules need to be
relaxed to allow the private sector to continue improving and
creating affordable housing for
the entire spectrum of the City’s
growing population.

Ozone Park ‘Bravest’ Celebrate 100 Years
By Domenick RafteR
Editor in Chief
In 1915, a building rose on 98th
Street in Ozone Park. It cost only
$45,000 to build. A century later, the
investment is still paying dividends.
That year, the City opened a firehouse, home to Engine 285 and Ladder 142. The two companies, still serving South Queens, celebrated their
centennial last Friday in a ceremony
held inside the house, which was open
to the public a few days earlier to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the
FDNY.
Speakers, including Deputy Commissioner Robert Turner, spoke about
what has changed in the last century,
but also what hasn’t, notably the traditions of New York’s Bravest.
“Inside these walls, generations of
firefighters have learned from each
other, mentored new firefighters and
ensured that traditions of this department, the core values that we are
build on, honor, dedication and service, never waiver,” Turner said at
Friday’s ceremony. “Centennials may
celebrate the date a firehouse opened,
but they’re most about the firefighters
who served here.”
Those firefighters included those
who were lost. Among them, three men
– Firefighter James Griffin of Engine
285 and firefighters John Dunne and
Michael Hanley of Ladder 142
– who died together on Feb.
6, 1923 after being struck by
a Long Island Rail Road train
on Atlantic Avenue while on
duty. They remembered Robert Smullen of Ladder 142,
who died responding to a fire
on March 19, 1966, the first of
18 of New York’s Bravest to
die in the line of duty in one
of the department’s deadliest
years. They honored Firefighter Thomas Earl of Engine 285,
who died fighting a fire on
Feb. 8, 1976 when a roof collapsed. Two firefighters from
Richmond Hill’s Ladder 143
also perished that day. And
they remembered Firefighter

Beach resident who worked
for Engine 285 and lost his life

The firehouse was one of several

dors with an opportunity to showcase
their best products and cuisine. This
is the first year the event was held at
the Hall of Science. Last year, it was
at Citi Field.
“Almost every country on the globe
has a foothold here,” QEDC Executive
Director Seth Bornstein said. “And
for the flavors of one’s homeland, it’s
easy and cheap to pick up wontons

dumplings in Sunnyside, and samosas
in Jackson Heights.”
Bornstein said that what started as
Restaurateurs and hundreds of
hungry patrons came to the New York
Hall of Science at Flushing Meadows
Corona Park on Tuesday, to sample
the best of what the Borough has to
offer.
Since its inception in 2002, the

menu, featuring everything from classic cuisine and interpretive creations
to the sweetest pastries and most
mouthwatering desserts. Even beverages, of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic variety, were featured.
Cotton Candy Buffalo Wings were a favorite at the table for the

Crystal Windows:
Celebrating 25 Years In Queens
Steve Chen,
Chief Operating Officer
According to his official bio, Chen
has practically grew up in that business, often going with his father
to business meetings or going to
the factory on the weekends as a
young boy.
After Chen graduated from Penn
State University with an economics
degree, he worked at a company
called First Union Asset Management leading the investment account managers team. He rejoined
Crystal in 2002, where he has been
working since.
According to Chen, their expansion into other states has made
them a major player in the vinylframed and aluminum-framed window market.
“People are starting to recogThe Crystal Series 200 vinyl winnize Crystal Windows as a national

Even with their emerging presofficer of Crystal Windows, called

Chen has had a lot of experience 20,000 windows at 134-low rise

According to a press release
about the project, the company
mostly used aluminum windows
for the complex, all of which
are energy efficient. Chen said
that aluminum framed windows
are more often used in light
commercial buildings, while
the vinyl framed windows are
usually installed in residential
homes.
“Crystal and Dun-Rite collaborated with the Glen Oaks
Village Co-Op Board through
a series of meetings and presentations to residents to show
them the selection of window
styles and replacement configurations available,” said
Robert Dorsky, Crystal’s sales
representative and project
manager for the Glen Oaks Village project.
The project was completed in

to finish, according to Chen.
Driving along the Whitestone
Expressway, it’s hard to miss the
Crystal Windows & Door Systems
factory, just north of the Flushing
River. The massive blue facility,
which has a distinct look of a bustling manufacturing plant, has been
a landmark in the Flushing-College
Point area for decades.
Crystal Windows and Doors
started out operating solely at its
Flushing headquarters, but in 25
years, the company has transformed itself into a nationally known
window distribution company.
Founded in 1990, Crystal Windows is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. They held a
gala event earlier this year for its
employees and their families. Next
week, on May 20th, they will host
an appreciation party for its customers and business partners.
According to their official bio,
the company operates four plants
throughout the country, with its main
headquarters being in Queens. It
also operates in Chicago, Riverside, Calif., just outside of Los Angeles, and in Union, Mo., outside of
St. Louis.
Steve Chen, the chief operating
Thomas Chen,
Chief Executive Officer
Among the jobs that they completed outside of Queens includes
the tallest Holiday Inn Hotel near
the World Trade Center site in
lower Manhattan and installing windows at Texas A&M University in
College Station, Texas.
Looking to the future of the company, Chen said they are looking to
further expand their manufacturing
capabilities outside the New York
City area.
Chen said that they are starting
to run out of space in their Queens
location to introduce new products
for their customers nationwide.
During a phone interview with
the Queens Tribune, Chen indicated that they do not plan on moving
out of or closing their Queens location, but there is a need for them
to open more locations to deliver
products more quickly and better
serve its customers.
Chen said the space no longer exists for large manufacturing
companies like Crystal Windows to
open more locations in New York
City and the property taxes for operating larger facilities like the ones
this company uses is more affordable in other areas.
Natural Healing For Stiffness And Chronic Pain
In today’s fast pace world we live
in, almost everyone is inactive, eating poorly, sleep deprived, stressed
and on sugar and caffeine overload,
leading to stiffness, chronic pain,
constipation, headaches and frequent use of medication.
Being a Certified Personal Trainer
for more than 25 years and having
first-hand experience with stiffness
and pain, I know and understand how
stiffness and pain can cripple a person. In 2007, I was diagnosed with
Hip Dysplasia. My hip joint was not
in the correct position to completely
cover and support the femoral head,
creating stiffness, pain, and limited
range of motion.
After my diagnosis, I decided to
treat it with the same approach I
educate my clients with, which is to
establish a plan that focuses on the
“total person” (mind, body, and spirit). This plan consists of nine steps:
movement,
nutrition,
hydration,
sleep, meditation, power of touch,
essential oils, positive affirmations
and maintaining a healthy weight.
Movement
Exercise stimulates the release
of endorphins (the body’s own feel
good hormone). Talk to your doctor
about the type of physical activities
that are best for your situation. A
gradual and gentle exercise program
may include strengthening exercises
for lower and upper body extremi-
This is known as the Chakra
Balance diet.
ties, cardiovascular fitness and flexibility and range of motion exercises,
which work well for people with long
lasting muscle and joint pain. For me,
exercising daily is a must as staying
active keeps my joints lubricated,
which prevents stiffness and inflammation, helping me to have full range
of motion and be pain-free.
Nutrition: Eat Away
Inflammation
The typical American diet is filled
with foods that promote inflammation,
including sugar, overly processed
convenience foods and refined carbohydrates. You can decrease inflammation by choosing antioxidantrich fruits and vegetables, healthy
fats, such as avocados, olives, and
nuts and balancing your intake of
omega-6 fatty acid and omega-3.
One of my favorite ways to help minimize inflammation is by eating foods
that help balance my chakras (foods
that are the color of the rainbow).
Hydration
I drink 8 to 10 glasses of warm
water with lemon and ginger or
cinnamon and honey to help decrease stiffness, pain, constipation and headaches. I find that
consuming warm water is more
beneficial as it assists in keeping
the joints lubricated.
Sleep
I make sure I get 7 to 9 hours
of sleep each night, and if not, I
am unable to manage my stiffness and pain. If pain keeps me up at
night, I need to take one or two 20-30
minute “power naps” during the day
as I find that when I am well rested,
I can manage my stiffness and pain
better.
Meditation: Decompress Stress
By learning to manage your stress,
it may help to lessen your pain. Relaxation techniques such as guided
imagery and mediation can decrease
the emotional and physical impact
of stress in your body. For me, visual mediation helps to decompress
stress while visualizing my body being pain-free and moving with ease.
The Power Of Touch: Reiki
And Crystal Healing
Healing treatments, such as Reiki
and Crystal Healing, help to connect
you with the emotional, physical,
mental and spiritual aspects of one’s
being. Often a person is depleted
due to various traumas. Reiki and
Crystal Healing can help to restore,
rejuvenate and renew your body allowing the energy to flow and become balanced.
Healing with Essential Oils
Applying essential oils daily can
help decrease stiffness, pain, depression, anxiety and sleepless nights.
There are many essential oils you can
use. In my practice, I use and recommend the following:
Lavender - for a calming feeling
Wintergreen - for pain and stiffness

Parker Jewish: Comfortable Care For Dialysis Patients
From its beginnings in 1907 as a
shelter for homeless elderly, Parker
Jewish Institute has evolved into
an internationally recognized center
of health care and rehabilitation for
adults, enabling more than 7,000
adults to receive essential, superior
quality care, each year.
An independent 527-bed, notfor-profit institution, Parker is at the
vanguard of patient-centered culture
change in long term care, offering
the most compassionate
long-term care,
distinguished
by the highest
levels of skilled
nursing, comprehensive onsite medical services and excellence
in social work services, therapeutic
recreation and an on-site pharmacy.
Now, Parker Jewish has added
on-site dialysis for patients living in
the center to allow for better access
to care and an improved quality of
life for patients needing dialysis.
The Queens-Long Island Renal
Institute operates inside Parker Jewish’s facility at 271-11 76 Ave. in
New Hyde Park and serves a need
that staff at Parker Jewish felt was
lacking.
“We found in our community that
there was a desire and a need for
hemodialysis,” Georgiene Kenny,
RN NPA, vice president of quality
assurance and regulatory affairs at
Parker Jewish, said. Hemodialysis is
a form of kidney dialysis that treats
the most advance kidney disease.
Jacqueline Javier-Burns, RN
CNN, nurse manager at Parker Jewish, said the facility has been operating for about four years. It was
founded to serve patients at the nursing home, for
whom traveling
to a dialysis
center
could
be extremely
difficult
and
cumbersome,
especially
in
bad weather and could even compromise a patient’s health.
Recently, the institute has opened
up to the surrounding community and
serves patients from Queens, Nassau and Suffolk counties. Seventy
percent of those receiving dialysis
treatments are outpatient.
The institute is designed to feel
less like a medical facility and is
catered to giving the patient a
more comfortable experience. Patients have private bays with curtains that close and the Parker
Jewish team is trained to connect
with patient and comfort them.
Patient choice is also extremely
important to Parker Jewish. Some
older patients, who may have advanced illnesses, such as cancer,
have the right to stop dialysis treatment “at any time,” Kenny said, because for them, dialysis treatment is
“an extraordinary choice.”
But for most patients, including
younger ones and those who do not
have terminal illnesses or are elderly, dialysis is a required treatment
and Parker Jewish works make the
Queens-Long Island Renal Institute
a comfortable and welcoming place
for this much-needed treatment.
“We’re very happy that we can
provide these services to these patients, especially nursing home patients,” Kenny said.
Parker’s community health programs also include adult day health
care (a medical model), an Alzheimer’s day care center (a social
model), home health care, and a
comprehensive community hospice.
These community health programs
help adults avoid institutionalization
and remain where they most want to
be - in the comfort of their homes, in
their communities, with their families
and friends.

What You Need To Know To Control This Silent Killer
Most people assume they only
need to take their medication when
they are sick, meaning when they experience symptoms. But in the case
of hypertension, this type of thinking
could kill you.
Patients who have hypertension
are often completely asymptomatic that’s the reason hypertension is often called the silent killer. The belief
that symptoms such as headaches,
nose bleeds, nervousness, sweating, difficulty sleeping or facial flushing are signals to take blood pressure medication is a myth.
Nonadherence to hypertension
medication is a huge challenge.
Research shows that one in three
American adults suffer from high
blood pressure, but only 47 percent effectively treat their disease
to keep blood pressure levels under
control.
Higher Risk For Heart
Attack, Stroke
Express Scripts’ specialist pharmacist Ed Dannemiller recently
spoke with a patient who was 40
days late to refill her blood pressure
prescription.
“When I asked her about the delay, she said she only takes her medication when she feels stressed or
has a headache. The problem with
this is that patients with hypertension
may feel perfectly fine before suffering a heart attack or stroke,” says
Dannemiller.
Normal blood pressure is less
than 120/80, but consistent levels
above 140/90 require medical attention. Simply keeping a patient’s
blood pressure under control decreases the risk of heart attack by
25 percent, stroke by 33 percent and
heart failure by 50 percent.
But the only way to have a precise measurement is through a blood
pressure reading.
Become An Engaged Patient
“I encourage patients to become
engaged in their own health and
keep track of their blood pressure
readings, which can help prevent
unnecessary hospitalizations or ER
visits,” Dannemiller explains.
For patients with white-coat hypertension - those whose blood pressure rises from stress in the doctor’s
office - a home blood pressure monitor is a good option.
Dannemiller offers these useful tips for patients monitoring their
pressure at home:
• Take blood pressure readings
in a seated position with arm at the
heart level
• To regulate the monitor, discard
the first reading
• Keep a record of your blood
pressure levels to bring to your doctor’s appointment
This additional data will help your
physician better understand your
condition and make better medical
decisions to ensure healthier outcomes.
Lifestyle Changes Can Help
In addition to staying adherent to
blood pressure medication, regardless of symptoms, the following lifestyle modifications also can improve
cardiovascular health:
• Consume a heart-healthy diet
rich in fresh fruits and vegetables
and low in salt, fat and cholesterol
• Engage in regular aerobic physical activity
• Manage your weight, limit alcohol consumption and do not
smoke.
Value Of Specialized
Understanding
“Even with lifestyle modifications,
most patients need at least two medications to reach their blood pressure
goal,” Dannemiller said.
Intervention and education from
specialist pharmacists provide an
important resource to improve medication adherence. When patients
understand the value of their treatment and embrace good cardiovascular health, they bring a little
more noise to this silent killer. For

You Deserve The Best Health Treatment Possible
If you or a loved one has a wound, ostomy- or
continence-related issue, there may be anxiety,
insecurity, and a lot of questions.
Many individuals in similar situations are finding relief through the services of specialty nurses
trained and certified in wound, ostomy and continence (WOC) care.
What Is A WOC Nurse?
A WOC nurse specializes in educating, preventing, treating and caring for individuals who have
wounds, ostomies or continence issues. Certified
WOC nurses are highly trained in treating these
ailments, and they direct, coordinate and evaluate
patient care regarding these conditions. In fact, research recently published by the Wound, Ostomy
and Continence Nurses Society shows patients receiving care from a WOC nurse are more likely to
see a successful stabilization of their condition than
those who are not receiving specialty care.
Another recent study emphasizes the value of
care a WOC nurse provides. Published in the Journal of Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nursing,
the research study examined more than 400,000
episodes of care and found that home health care
patients who were treated with the specialized
skills of a WOC nurse improved dramatically compared to HHC patients without a WOC nurse. Patients under the care of a WOC nurse were:
• Nearly twice as likely to have improvement in
pressure ulcers.
• 20 percent more likely to have improvement in
lower extremity ulcers.
surgical wounds.
urinary incontinence.
bowel incontinence.
“This study proves that WOC care results in
better patient outcomes, which means patient

Peppermint - to combat mental and physical fatigue, giving a renewed feeling of vigor and vitality
Valor - helps to release negative emotions and
ease anxiety, while promoting calmness, courage

Peace and Calming - for a good night sleep and
enhances moments of meditation and self-reflection
Positive Affirmations
There is a lot to be said about positive affirmations. Maintaining a positive attitude may help to
decrease stress, stiffness and pain. Keeping a
positive affirmation journal improves confidence,
peace of mind, and self-esteem, while improving
healing. Some of the positive affirmations that I
use include:
I am grateful that my body is healthy and painfree.
I am grateful that while I rest, my body heals.
I am grateful that the food I eat fuels my body.
I am grateful that my body moves with ease.
Healthy Weight
For me, maintaining a healthy weight helps to
decrease pain, stiffness and inflammation from my
joints, allowing me to move easily.
While managing my hip diagnosis for seven
years, I decided to have a hip replacement. By applying my nine step plan, I recovered quickly. It
is now eight months post-surgery and I have full
range of motion, performing exercises I have not
done in years, moving with ease and pain-free.
Based on my personal and professional experience, stiffness and chronic pain can be managed
with natural medicine by incorporating my nine
step plan: movement, nutrition, hydration, sleep,
meditation, power of touch, essential oils, positive
affirmations, and maintaining a healthy weight.
In some cases, the right treatment makes all
the difference; however, in any case, it is worth
exploring. Consult with a Certified Personal Trainer or Health and Spiritual Coach for guidance in a
mind, body and spiritual transformation.

LEISURE
Arts Open May See Biggest Turnout Yet
By Daniel Offner
Staff Writer
Queens’ largest art festival returns
to Long Island City, from May 13-17,
when artists, residents, businesses,
tourists, government, art collectors
and enthusiasts will gather for the 5th
annual LIC Arts Open.
“It’s hard to believe that five years
have passed since a seemingly innocuous conversation led to founding of
an arts festival that is growing in size
and significance every year,” Richard
Mazda, executive director of the Arts
Open, said in a letter. “We are back
with a fantastic program of exhibits,
events and our annual Open Studios
weekend, with hundreds of artists and
performers taking part, and scores of
venues participating.”
Since its inception, back in 2011, the
LIC Arts Open has provided a venue
for local artists to showcase
their work. Mazda, who also
serves as artistic director at the
Secret Theatre in Long Island
City, told the Queens Tribune,
that when it began, the LIC Arts
Open was designed to not only
include painters, but sculptors,
videographers and other forms
of art as well.
“One month later, we managed to raise about $30,000
from local businesses,” Mazda
said.
Growing rapidly from the
start, Mazda anticipates the
2015 LIC Arts Open will see its
biggest turnout yet.
“This area is home to one of
the largest collections of gallery and
studio space in the City and the Long
Island City Arts Open provides us
with a chance to celebrate the artists
who use this space as well as the work
they produce,” Councilman Jimmy Van
Bramer (D-Sunnyside), chairman of the
Cultural Affairs Committee, said.
Featuring more than 200 local artists, the five-day arts and cultural festival includes over 40 different events
and 50 exhibitions across 60 different
venues in Long Island City.
The festival kicks off with an opening reception, from 6 to 10 p.m., at The
Local NYC, 13-02 44th Ave., featuring a
live jazz performance from Willie Martinez’s La Familia with local trombone
legend J. Walter Hawkes, and a welcome
speech from Van Bramer.
Visit The Oldest House In Queens This Sunday
By DOmenick rafter
Editor in Chief
If you’re looking to stay indoors
this weekend, why not do it at Queens’
oldest house.
This Sunday, May 17, the 17th Century Bowne House in Flushing will
participate in the New York Landmarks
Conservancy’s Sacred Sites Open House
Weekend.
Bowne House will be open to the
public from 1 to 5 p.m. At 2 p.m.
there will be a special program with
speakers on the history of freedom of
religion and on the Flushing Remonstrance, the 1657 petition to Governor
Peter Stuyvesant, signed by a group
of 31 local citizens, arguing for the
right to freedom of conscience in the
colony.
The house itself was built in 1661
and became a house of worship for
Quakers. The next year, its owner,
John Bowne, defied a ban imposed by
Governor Stuyvesant on the practice
of religions other than the Dutch Reformed Church by allowing Quakers
to worship in his home. Bowne was
arrested, punished and eventually
deported to the Netherlands, where
he successfully pleaded his case before
the Dutch West India Company. He
returned home victorious in 1664, and
the principle of religious freedom was
established in the colony.
Sunday’s program will take place in
the museum garden, adjacent to the
454-year-old home.
U.S. Rep. Grace Meng (D-Flushing), the sponsor of the Flushing Remonstrance Study Act, a law signed
by President Obama in December
aimed to making the Bowne House
and other locations associated with
the Flushing Remonstrance, National
Park site, will speak at the event. Dr.
R. Scott Hanson, author of “City of
Gods: Religious Freedom, Immigration, and Pluralism in Flushing,
Queens 1645-2001,” and a lecturer
on diversity and religious freedom
will also be speaking.
For additional information on the
Sacred Sites Open House Weekend,
contact Ann Friedman or Brian Gallagher at the New York Landmarks
Conservancy at (212) 995-5260 or
sacredsites@nylandmarks.org.
Bowne House in Flushing,
Queens’ oldest homestead, will
be open to the public from 1 to
5 p.m. on Sunday.
Tasty Treat From Across The Creek
By Daniel Offner
Staff Writer
Queens residents are in for a tasty
treat this summer.
The Smorgasburg food market will
be crossing Newtown Creek on July 11,
for its first event in Long Island City,
where there will be dozens of local
food vendors.
“We’ve been knocking around the
idea of a Queens Smorgasburg for
about a year now,” Jonathan Butler,
co-founder of Smorgasburg, said in
an email. “So when Rockrose [the
developer] approached us about doing
something across the street from their
Linc LIC project in Court Square, it
was an easy sell especially given the
great subway access and proximity to
[MOMA] PS1.”
Butler, who is also the co-founder
of the Brooklyn Flea and creator of
Brownstoner.com, said that across the
river in Williamsburg, Smorgasburg
has become a huge global attraction.
After seeing how successful the Smorgasburg food market has become since
it began in 2011, he said, it excited him
to do something more local, similar to
how he and accomplice Eric Demby,
first started the Brooklyn Flea in Fort
Greene in 2008.
“We are frequently approached by
other cities wanting us to do a ‘Smorgasburg,’” Butler continued. “But we
realized that just across the Pulaski
Bridge there was the fifth biggest City in
America and it just happened to also be
one of the most ethnically diverse places
on the planet with a long and storied
food culture. No brainer!”
Located in a combination outdoor
lot and indoor facility, Smorgasburg
will feature restaurants and startups
alike. Some Smorgasburg staples – such
as Colombian arepas, Mexican seafood
cocktails and Thai noodles – will be on
hand to serve hundreds of hungry patrons in attendance. In addition, Smogasburg Queens will feature authentic
Filipino food from Papa’s Kitchen in
Woodside, pho from Maspeth-based
Bun-Ker Vietnamese restaurant and
noodle soup from Elmhurst-based Pata
Paplean.
According to Butler, a dozen food
vendors are committed, as of press
time, with a capacity for about 40 in
the Long Island City location. There are
no plans for a second location, he said,
right now they are staying focused on
making this a super high-quality and
fun food event.
For those interested in participating in Smorgasburg’s first Long Island
City affair, you can fill out a vendor
application online at smorgasburg.

Maspeth HS Tennis Makes Playoffs in First Season
By Luis Gronda
Staff Writer
Tennis at Maspeth High School has been a
resounding success in its inaugural season, with
both the boys and girls teams qualifying for the
playoffs.
The teams recently finished their regular season and the results have been terrific. The boys
varsity team finished 9-1 overall and earned a first
round bye into its playoff game against Lincoln
High School from Brooklyn. They were to play
Wednesday night.
The girls finished with a 6-6 record and competed in the citywide playoffs, facing John F. Kennedy
Campus High School from the Bronx on Tuesday
evening. The Maspeth teams lost in their matchup
3-2 and are eliminated from the post season.
The team’s coaches, Sarah Jabbar and Ryan
Stansfield, said they attribute their team’s success
to the dedication the students have committed to
playing tennis and improving on their craft.
“They always want to play. If it’s nice out, they
want to play. Even if we’re not doing something
together as a team, a lot of the time, they’ll just
text each other and go play,” said Stansfield, who
coaches the boys team. Both Stansfield and Jabbar
are global history teachers at the school.
When asked to describe the girls season so far,
Jabbar said the first word that comes to mind is
“growth” because of how much the girls have im-
The Maspeth High School Girls Tennis team (lef t) and Boys Tennis team (right) both had
good inaugural seasons.
proved their tennis game throughout the year.
“A lot of the girls on my team, they were brand
new to the sport. Some of them had never picked up
a tennis racket prior to being on the team,” she said.
“Just having them work on their strokes and
their serves and seeing them get better has been
really nice,” Jabbar added. “They really put their
time and effort into this and it’s showing.”
Both teams have upper classmen that serve as
leaders among their peers and are among the best
players on the team.
According to Stansfield, his team is led by two
seniors, Horia Negru and Nikodem Citak.
He said, Negru often plays against the best
player on the other team and he generally feels
confident that they will put in a good performance
when they step onto the court.
As for Citak, Stansfield said he has taken on a
leadership role within the team, including taking
the younger players under his wing, and is essentially serving as an additional coach.
For Jabbar’s team, Magdalena Jankowski and
Xin Yi Chen, who are both juniors, have emerged
as the leaders of the team.
Jankowski, or “Maggie” as Jabbar called her, is
the vocal leader of the team. The coach said, she
leads the warm up practices even when a coach is
present.
“She’s one of those players that really wants to
do well. You can see it on her face, when she loses
a match, that she wants to fix what she did,” Jabbar said.
She added that Chen’s skills have improved
during the season, and she is the player with the
best technique on the tennis court, according to
Jabbar.
