Podcast: The Dominican Republic's Plan to Racially Cleanse the Country of Black Haitians
The Dominican Republic is set to purge its country of hundreds of thousands of black Haitian migrants or black Dominicans of Haitian descent. The government has stripped anyone born in Haiti after 1929 of their citizenship and rendered this entire population stateless. Numerous Haitians have fled or are hiding as they wait to see what the immigration agency will do next.
Army General Ruben Paulino, who leads the immigration agency, said his agency would conduct patrols of neighborhoods with "large numbers of migrants" after June 18. Any "non-citizens," who were unregistered, would be "repatriated." The individuals would be loaded on buses, trucks, or ambulances—and then expelled from the country.
On the "Unauthorized Disclosure" podcast this week, Dr. Jemima Pierre, a professor at UCLA of African Diaspora Studies & an editor for Black Agenda Report, joins the show to talk about the Dominican Republic. She describes the history of Haiti and the Dominican Republic, as well as the United States' role since the US once occupied the island where Haiti and the Dominican Republic are located. She details the anti-black racism that has deep roots in the Dominican Republic.
During the discussion part of the show, the show's hosts talk about Dylann Roof's manifesto and share thoughts on the political and media reaction to the church massacre in Charleston. They also talk about a Louisville FOP president and his vitriolic open letter directed toward Black Lives Matter activists. And the show wraps with some quick thoughts about a court ordering US officials to intercept a Guatemalan mother and her child, who were deported, and return them to the United States.

Senate Holds Up de Blasio, Cuomo MTA Appointees
Jun 26th - 1:19 pm
Posted by Liz Benjamin in Andrew Cuomo
In yet another "screw you" to NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio, the Republican-controlled Senate departed Albany without acting on the mayor's appointees to the MTA Board, multiple sources confirm.
De Blasio had three nominees pending with the Senate to serve on the state-run authority, which manages transit – buses, subways, trains, bridges and tunnels – in New York City and surrounding areas including, Long Island: David Jones, a leader with the nonprofit Community Service Society who has advocated reduced transit fares for low-income New Yorkers; Manhattan Councilman Ydanis Rodriguez, who chairs the chamber's Transportation Committee; and Veronica Vanterpool, director of the Tri-State Transportation Campaign and a member of the MTA's "reinvention" commission.
The trio would bring some diversity to the Board. Jones is black, and Vanterpool and Rodriguez are Latino. The mayor's decision to tap the councilman did raise some eyebrows, with questions about whether him doing double-duty as both a board member and chair of the committee that oversees the MTA would present a conflict of interest.
The mayor's appointees were supposed to replace two holdovers from the Bloomberg administration – John Banks and Jeffrey Kay – and give de Blasio control of the four seats on the MTA Board that are afforded to City Hall.
A Senate spokesman said members of the majority are "performing our due diligence on the mayor's selections." He did not confirm or deny that the majority's decision not to act on the mayor's appointees was born of the Republicans' ongoing anger with de Blasio for his failed effort to assist the Senate Democrats in taking back the majority during last year's elections. The bad blood between the conference and the mayor (not to mention the difficult relationship between Cuomo and the mayor) made this an unusually difficult session for de Blasio in Albany.
The Senate did not hold up everything having to do with the MTA, which is always a bit of a sticky wicket – especially for the downstate members – due to its long-running financial issues. (The authority a $14 billion funding gap in its five-year capital plan, which Albany did not address before the session ended).
MTA Chairman Tom Predergast was confirmed earlier this week for a new six-year term. During his confirmation hearing, he warned that if lawmakers don't do something about the capital plan gap by the end of the year, the agency might have to delay contracts for some projects.
The Senate also confirmed one of Cuomo's two MTA Board nominees – Larry Schwartz, a former top aide to the governor who is now working in the private sector for an airport services company called OTG Management, to replace Republican Andrew Saul. Schwartz could not travel to Albany to attend his confirmation hearing in person, and so participated via video conference.
Cuomo's other nominee, Peter Ward, president of the small (but growing in both numbers and clout) New York Hotel and Motel Trades Council. Ward was supposed to replace Allen Cappelli, a Democratic operative from Staten Island who was selected to serve on the board by former Gov. David Paterson in 2008.
News of Cuomo's decision not to reappoint Cappelli, who has demonstrated an independent streak during his time on the board, angered both Staten Islanders and transit advocates. Cappelli himself expressed disappointment about his imminent removal.
The Senate could not immediately provide an answer as to why Ward was not confirmed, but Schwartz was. (I'm told a few other gubernatorial appointees were also held up due to the fact that they could not appear in person before the Health Committee, as desired by its chairman, Sen. Kemp Hannon). Sen. Diane Savino, an IDC member from Staten Island, said she had not pushed for the delay, saying she believes the "clock just ran down."
Cappelli said he has no idea why he was spared – at least in the short term – and believes he will continue to serve on the board until the Senate confirms a replacement. At the moment, lawmakers have no plans to return to Albany before next year's session, which begins in January.
"At least I can continue to serve and fight for capital projects and service enhancements for a period of time," Cappelli said. "We'll see what happens."
Here and Now
Jun 26th - 5:12 am
Posted by Liz Benjamin in [...]
Gov. Andrew Cuomo is in New York City. The 2015 session is officially in the books. Both the Senate and Assembly have passed the "Big Ugly" (Big Lovely, Big Whatever), and members quickly departed Albany, eager to put a tumultuous and difficult six months behind them.
At 10:30 a.m., AG Eric Schneiderman announces a "major criminal enforcement action," office of the AG, 120 Broadway, Manhattan.
At noon, Brooklyn BP Eric Adams and Deputy BP Diana Reyna, NYC Council members Laurie Cumbo and Mathieu Eugene and Sen. Jesse Hamilton hold a news conference to criticize deportations from the Dominican Republic; steps, Brooklyn Borough Hall, 209 Joralemon St., Brooklyn.
At 5:30 p.m., NYC First Lady Chirlane McCray, Deputy Mayor Lilliam Barrios-Paoli and Department of Homeless Services Commissioner Gilbert Taylor will deliver remarks at the first-ever graduation ceremony for college-bound high school seniors living in Department of Homeless Services shelters, as well as graduates from the DHS Advantage Academy, The Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum, Pier 86, West 46th Street and 12th Avenue, Manhattan.
Members of the Assembly overwhelmingly approved the Big Ugly in a 122-13 vote, finishing up around midnight. The measure passed the Senate a bit earlier in the evening, 47-12, with a number of Democrats dissenting.
The votes ended a session that will be remembered for for its corruption scandals and attendant upheaval rather than its legislative achievements – or lack thereof. Gov. Andrew Cuomo called the agreement "a reasonable and intelligent compromise" in which "no one is exactly happy with everything."
The details of the final deal were largely unchanged since Cuomo and legislative leaders announced a framework agreement earlier in the week. It extends NYC mayoral control for just one year, continues both rent control and the 421a program with what the governor deemed "historic" reforms (though advocates strongly disagree), extends the tax cap with minor modifications and creates a $1.3 billion property tax rebate program.
Contrary to lawmakers' claims, the Big Ugly did not end the State Education Department's so-called "gag order" policy that prevents administrators and teachers from discussing the contents of state exams.
Among issues not included in the Big Ugly: An oversight measure for the troubled East Ramapo school district, a bill lifting New York's ban on MMA, the education tax credit (though nonpublic schools get $250 million), and so-called "Raise the Age" legislation/criminal justice reforms.
After the East Ramapo bill failed to win approval in Albany, Chancellor Merryl Tisch said the school board should dismiss its superintendent to show it aimed to fix the damaged district.
Also failing to make the cut: A plan that could have affected the siting of video slot machine parlors on Long Island, as well as a proposal to force Nassau County to direct some sales tax revenue to two villages in Assemblywoman Earlene Hooper's district.
As a result of the end of session deal, not only Cuomo, but former governors George Pataki, David Paterson and Eliot Spitzer now all have the power to perform marriages. The new law takes effect immediately – just in time for this weekend's Gay Pride Parade in NYC.
The governor did not deny that he was the "top Cuomo administration official" quoted in the Daily News questioning NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio's strategy as he pushed to renew his control of the city's schools and restructure and reauthorize a real estate tax subsidy to help him build more affordable housing. (Cuomo's spokeswoman on whether the governor had admitted he was the commentor: "Nope").
De Blasio was on the downside of a difficult week, as he navigated the final hours of both the state legislative session and City Council budget talks. "Right now, we are focused on policy," the mayor responded when asked about the tough comments from the governor's camp.
Richard Matt traded on his skills as an artist to assist in his breakout – along with fellow convict, David Sweat – from Clinton Correctional Facility.
There are thousands of cabins across the six-million-acre Adirondack Park and the surrounding foothills. Many of them are empty this time of year, but stocked with firearms and nonperishable food – just the sort of things the escaped convicts would be looking for as they elude law enforcement.
Extras (Updated)
Jun 25th - 5:59 pm
It's 6 p.m., do you know where your state lawmaker is? Still in Albany, but – so far – not passing any legislation related to the Big Ugly (or "Big Whatever," as Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie and Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan call it, or, as the governor prefers, the "Big Lovely"). It's shaping up to be a long night, folks. So, settle in, and enjoy the following headlines while you wait for this year's session to officially conclude.
UPDATE: The Big Ugly bill has landed!!
In a sweeping victory for President Obama's signature law, the US Supreme Court ruled, 6-3, that the federal government may provide subsidies to people purchasing health insurance from a federal exchange.
New York City's top Democrats hailed the ruling.
The Senate Finance Committee approved the appointment of Larry Schwartz, the former secretary to Cuomo, to the MTA Board. Senators interviewed Schwartz via a video conference because he was unable to make the trip to Albany.
Anonymous quotes are hardly new, but some of the recent ones raised eyebrows even among veteran watchers of Albany. Cuomo today did not deny that he was the top administration official anonymously quoted slamming NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio in three downstate papers this morning.
Could NYC First Lady Chirlane McCray and Sandra Lee play peacemakers for their respective significant others? McCray says the two have a "very good relationship" that they should "develop."
Asked if she could consider a run for governor in the future, Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner, who is prevented by term limits from seeking re-election, replied: "I will never say never."
Disgraced former Sen. Malcolm Smith says he is a "humbled and broken man," and argues he deserves leniency because his attempt to bribe his way into NYC Hall was not for financial gain.
Regents Chancellor Merryl Tisch is blaming the Senate Republicans – not Cuomo – for failing to get a deal on the East Ramapo oversight bill.
The president of the state correctional officers union is telling members that the time to talk about the factors leading up to the escape from Clinton Correctional Facility will come, but the focus now must be on capturing Richard Matt and David Sweat.
The prison guard arrested in connection with the prison break admitted to authorities he'd exchanged favors with the escaped killers, but claimed he had no clue the extra privileges he gave them "made their escape easier."
Advocates for paid internships are accusing the de Blasio administration of falling short of its own progressive rhetoric when it comes to intern compensation. Many of the mayor's interns work full-time, but are not paid, even as he pushes for a higher minimum wage.
An investigation by state IG Catherine Leahy Scott found that a former top official with the state office of Medicaid IG improperly accepted gifts, including air travel and a job offer, from a Texas corporation that had a $120 million contract with the state.
Spanish-language broadcaster Univision is dropping the Miss USA pageant and cutting ties with the ties with the Miss Universe Organization, which Donald Trump co-owns, after some ugly comments the 2016 presidential candidate made about Mexicans.
The Yonkers school district will get an additional $25 million in state aid to avert layoffs. The money originally was to come from a $100 million fund for struggling upstate schools, but the rest of the cash isn't in the Big Ugly.
A unanimous Court of Appeals panel said the Taxi and Limousine Commission, under former Mayor Mike Bloomberg, didn't "exceed its authority" when it designated the Nissan NV200 as the vehicle for the city's entire fleet.
Lawmakers won't approve a plan by Assemblywoman Earlene Hooper to force Nassau County to direct some of its sales tax revenue to two villages in her district. Instead, the Assembly will extend Nassau's authorization to collect the tax with no strings attached.
Hedge-fund billionaire Daniel Loeb — one of the biggest and most feared investors on Wall Street and a vocal backer of same-sex marriage — posted a joke speculating about Hillary Clinton's sexuality on his personal Facebook page.

Though their leaders had announced a framework end-of-session deal with the governor just over 24 hours earlier, rank-and-file lawmakers left the Capitol yesterday without a final agreement, and without passing any bills. They're due back at work today.
The talks trying to turn the tentative agreement into a final agreement were reportedly not pretty. Cuomo and Senate Republicans had been convinced that omnibus legislation was to be given final approval Wednesday. But Assembly Democrats were holding out to bolster a law providing rent-control protections for some 2 million New York City apartment dwellers.
Instead of passing the so-called "Big Ugly," the Assembly and Senate instead took up measures that while not trivial would be considered secondary to items such as New York City's rent laws and the state's 2 percent property tax cap – both of which are expected in the final package of bills.
The rocky relationship between Gov. Andrew Cuomo and NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio played a significant role in this session. Rather than collaborate on mutual goals, like higher wages and immigrants' rights, the state's two most powerful Democrats spent much of the year at odds with one another, and – at various turns – with the Legislature.
An anonymous Cuomo administration official slammed de Blasio for failing to understand how Albany works, saying: "He is more politically oriented in terms of his approach…and then he makes it almost impossible for him to achieve success."
De Blasio quietly rejected an offer from state Senate Republicans that would have boosted wages for the city's lowest-paid workers in exchange for his support to increase cop and firefighter pensions. The deal would have hiked the minimum wage to $11.50 an hour in New York City.
A corrections officer recently placed on administrative leave after the escape of two convicted killers from a maximum-security prison in northern New York has been arrested. (Recall that the governor once said he would be "shocked" if a guard was involved in helping the escapees).
A attorney representing Officer Gene Palmer said his client had no knowledge they were trying to break out and didn't know meat he gave them had contraband hidden inside it, allegedly placed there by Joyce Mitchell, who has also been charged with assisting convicts Richard Matt and David Sweat with their escape.
The governor insisted the $250 million for nonpublic schools in the framework deal is "new money," but several groups say the cash would simply repay long-standing debts that the state had owed to those schools anyway.
MTA Chairman Tom Prendergast was confirmed by the state Senate for a new term at the helm of the agency he has led for the last two years. During his confirmation hearing, Prendergast made the case for why the authority needs more money from the state for its five-year capital plan – an issue the Legislature doesn't plan to take up.
Judge Susan Phillips Read, one of two Republicans on the state's highest court, will resign in August, giving Cuomo another opportunity to shape the court 16 months earlier than expected. Having served 12 years, Read would not have been forced to resign until January 2017, when her 14-year term ends. Her departure leaves Judge Eugene F. Pigott Jr. the sole Republican on the seven-member panel.

The never-ending session is still….never-ending. The catchphrase around the Capitol today is that the framework deal announced yesterday by the governor and legislative leaders was apparently more "frame" than "deal." So far, nothing is in print, and no "Big Ugly" bills have been passed. We'll keep you posted. Until then, bring on the headlines!!
Telling reporters that they were "royally screwed," tenant activists and a Democratic NYC councilman blasted Gov. Andrew Cuomo for failing to bolster rent regulations as much as they had hoped.
After yesterday's "deal that isn't a deal" press conference, the governor got on the phone to New York magazine's Chris Smith to sell the "fantastic package" he had just announced.

De Blasio Holding Out Hope on Rent, 421a
Jun 24th - 3:31 pm
Posted by Liz Benjamin in Albany
There's a general consensus around Albany that NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio got the short end of the stick in the so-called framework deal announced yesterday by Gov. Andrew Cuomo and legislative leaders, but the mayor is trying to put a positive spin on things, saying today there's still time for things to change while the deal remains open.
Speaking to reporters earlier today, de Blasio heaped praise on the Assembly Democrats, (even though his support among conference members has reportedly been eroding steadily over the past several weeks), saying they have been "consistently responsive to the city's concerns," and adding: "They've been serious, they've been resolute, and they've gotten a lot done, particularly on issues like rent regulation."
De Blasio went out of his way to thank Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, who stressed during his own chat with reporters that the framework deal is just that – a framework – and nothing has been nailed done just yet.
The mayor said there are "very promising signs" at the Capitol when it comes to rent regulation, and that 421a is "very much on the table."
"There's a real dialogue happening on that right now," de Blasio continued. "So I think we all need to step back and see where this process is leading us…And, you know, we don't know if the session is going to end today, tomorrow, or some other day, but, you know, we're focused right now on what's going on with both the rent issue and the 421-a issue."
De Blasio was asked whether it was a mistake for him to campaign on behalf of, and raise money for, the Senate Democrats in their failed effort to re-take the majority, given the fact that it angered the Republicans and made them predisposed against his Albany agenda. His response? "No."
(It should be noted that the Senate Republicans aren't the mayor's only problem – or even his biggest problem – at the Capitol these days. His on-again, off-again relationship with the governor appears to be very much off, and some Democratic lawmakers who are disappointed with the rent deal as it currently stands are accusing Cuomo of siding with the Senate GOP against the Assembly Democrats during negotiations in large part to spite the mayor).
The mayor was also asked about the fate of his affordable housing plan if the 421a tax abatement program for real estate developers lapses. (The framework deal includes a four-year extension, but the whole thing will expire if the labor unions and real estate industry fail to reach a prevailing wage agreement within six months). Again, de Blasio was reluctant to accept that the framework is the final word on this issue, saying:
"There's a real dialogue going on right now on 421-a. Our focus is on greatly intensifying the affordability that can be achieved through 421-a. I've spoken to this issue many times, as to the vision we have for making 421-a a real vehicle for greater affordability for New Yorkers. Some very serious discussions are happening right now and we have to see where that leads us."
Capital NY's Laura Nahmias reported earlier this afternoon that some Assembly Democrats are pushing for changes to the rent agreement, including an increase in the threshold for vacancy decontrol, though the governor's office denied that was the case.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo and legislative leaders announced a "framework" deal to end the 2015 legislative session that extends the downstate rent laws and mayoral control (though only for one year), as well as the property tax cap (with some changes). Assemblyman Sheldon Silver, the former speaker, called the agreement "still fluid" last night, adding: "There are fine lines when you actually draft the bill."
The mayoral control extension will only be for one year – a political blow to NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio, who sought to make the law permanent.
Also in this year's Big Ugly: A $1.3 billion property tax rebate program, with checks going out (conveniently) right before next year's elections, $250 million for nonpublic schools (but not the education tax credit), a transparency requirement for the state Education Department on testing and teacher evaluations and a shuffling of charter schools, with more made available in NYC.
The 421a extension agreement includes significant changes to affordable housing requirements that are similar to those proposed by de Blasio and championed by REBNY, which represents major developers and is one of the state's most powerful special interest groups.
Cuomo and lawmakers were unable to strike a deal on a pair of criminal-justice issues, including reforms to the state's system for investigating and prosecuting incidents involving police officers and their use of force. Instead, the governor said he would follow through on his pledge to appoint a special prosecutor — AG Eric Schneiderman — for police-involved cases while he and lawmakers take another crack at the issue next year.
Also not included in the Big Ugly: A proposal to revamp the disability pension system for NYC's uniformed work force – a priority of police and fire unions, was omitted from the agreement.
Late-inning efforts by some lawmakers to change the SAFE Act also were unsuccessful, and the fate of a measure that would lift New York's ban on MMA remains uncertain.
Through measures inserted into the state budget this spring, both the Assembly and state Senate are now set to dole out millions of extra dollars to schools worth of so-called "bullet aid" — outside the state's normal education funding process. Most of the Assembly's dollars will go upstate, while the bulk of the Senate's cash will be targeted to NYC.
A group of 71 Assembly Democrats led by former Speaker Silver had complained in a letter to the Democratic National Committee that the April 26 primary fell during Passover week. Silver announced yesterday the date was changed to April 19.
A group of prominent Jewish doctors from New York State and Duke University have published an Op-Ed in The Jewish Week criticizing the de Blasio administration's stance on metzitza b'peh, the circumcision ritual that involves orally suctioning blood away from the penis.
De Blasio's surprise Monday night announcement to add almost 1,300 new cops to the NYPD came just two weeks after a 1 Police Plaza sitdown between him and Bill Bratton, his handpicked police commissioner.
Hedge fund manager and charter school advocate Daniel Loeb and his wife, Margaret Munzer Loeb, will host a fund-raiser for Cuomo at their residence in East Hampton on July 11.
Jun 23rd - 5:29 pm
It was a busy day at the Capitol. To recap: The legislative leaders met early behind closed doors with Gov. Andrew Cuomo, emerging to tell reporters that they still had things they needed to work out. No deal yet. But progress was being made.
Then – quite suddenly – the press corps was summoned to the Red Room, where the leaders and Cuomo announced a "framework" deal to end the session, but declined to provide much in the way of details because Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie and Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan hadn't yet had the opportunity to brief their respective conference members.
Then the governor left for his daughter's graduation from high school, saying his "piece" in this particular play was done. And the leaders are now left to hash out the final details – where the Devil resides, as you well know – and then sell this agreement to the rank-and-file lawmakers.
There was nothing in print as of early this afternoon when the framework deal was announced. The five-day rent regulation extension passed last week by both houses of the Legislature expires at midnight. Some optimists are suggesting the Legislature might be able to start passing bill language for the Big Ugly as early as tomorrow, which would require a message of necessity from the governor to circumvent the required three-day aging process.
That seems like a stretch. But, hey, this is Albany, and stranger things have happened. While we wait for this picture to become a bit clearer, here are some headlines to consider:
Duane "Dog" Chapman, better known as Dog the Bounty Hunter, and his crew are following the manhunt for the two escaped prisoners from Clinton Correctional Facility. "The reward out there is good," he said.
Lyle Mitchell, husband of Joyce Mitchell, who has been charged with helping Richard Matt and David Sweat escape, said his wife told him she got in "over my head" with the break-out plot, and insisted she never had sex with either convict.
PEF members ousted their president of four years, Susan Kent, replacing her with Wayne Spence, who will lead the second largest state workers union for the next three years.
Surprise! The rebate checks that are part of the $1.3 billion tax relief plan in the Big Ugly will be delivered in September 2016 – just in time for the elections!
Mayoral control of the Buffalo school district was not included in this year's Big Ugly – though it never had much in the way of a "political life" in Albany to begin with.
Senate Deputy Majority Leader Tom Libous' attorney argues it is "impossible" to say the lawmaker's bout with cancer isn't relevant to the case without knowing what prosecutors' arguments will be at trial.
NYSUT, the state teachers' union, and its national sibling, the AFT, appear to be at odds over a proposal for state oversight in Rockland County's troubled East Ramapo school district.
So far, the East Ramapo monitor bill is stalled as the session stumbles to an end. Sen. David Carlucci is asking Gov. Andrew Cuomo to intercede.
NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio said he will not add any new religious holidays to the school calendar following Lunar New Year, irking Hindus who had hoped students and teachers could stay home for Diwali.
Bloomberg Philanthropies, the charitable organization founded by former NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg, announced it has chosen cities across the United States to receive grants of up to $1 million to support public art projects.
Hillary Clinton has emerged from the rocky launch of her second presidential bid with a firm grip on Democratic voters and leads over three potential Republican rivals, a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds.
Rep. Elise Stefanik has a new job on Capitol Hill: She's been tapped by Republican leaders to help the party understand and appeal to millenials.
The site of the Stonewall Inn, a gay club and bar where 1969 riots played a significant part in the modern gay-rights movement, was designated a city landmark by the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission.
The Nassau County Superior Officers Association has endorsed Republican Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray for Nassau district attorney – more than two months before an expected Democratic primary where voters will select her opponent.
AG Eric Schneiderman supports putting a woman on US paper currency, but advocates removing Andrew Jackson from the $20 instead of "the great New Yorker" Alexander Hamilton from the $10.
Cuomo announced that maple syrup production in New York hit a 70 year high, which means the state retains its standing as nation's number two producer of maple syrup (behind Vermont).
Cornell University's Department of Biomedical Engineering will become its own independent school after it received a $50 million gift.
Beer giant Anheuser-Busch announced plans to invest $1.5 billion in its U.S. operations – including $4.5 million at its plant just outside Baldwinsville.

Posted by Liz Benjamin in [...]
Gov. Andrew Cuomo is in Albany and the New York City area with no public schedule. The Legislature is back in Albany to try to resolve the never-ending 2015 legislative session. The Assembly is scheduled to be in at 2 p.m., the Senate at 3 p.m.
At 7:30 a.m., tenant advocates who spent the night in Albany's Academy Park to bring attention to the rent regulation battle will breakfast at Westminster Church, 262 State St., and then return to the park for a rally at 9 a.m.

At 9:30 a.m., members of the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission's Research Department are scheduled to discuss proposed landmark designations for The Stonewall Inn and other properties during a public meeting; ninth floor, 1 Centre St., Manhattan.

At 2:30 p.m., following a scheduled court appearance by an NYPD officer accused of shooting and killing unarmed 28-year-old Brooklyn resident Akai Gurley on Thursday, Nov. 20, the mother of Gurley's daughter, Kimberly Ballinger, and attorney Scott Rynecki hold a news conference; Kings County Supreme Court-Criminal Term, 320 Jay St., Brooklyn.
At 4 p.m., Local 372 and NYC student groups urge de Blasio to fund free lunch for all public schools, City Hall steps, Manhattan.
At 6 p.m., Farina attends a meeting of the Panel for Educational Policy, Long Island City High School, 14-30 Broadway, Queens.
In his first public comments since June 14, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said lawmakers are "close" to an accord that could close out the legislative session, and outlined areas of disagreement between the Democrat-dominated Assembly and Republican-led Senate.
Concerned about a growing suspicion among Democrats and activists that he is siding more with the Republicans on rent than the party he leads, the governor placed a surprise personal call last week to Michael McKee, the dean of New York's tenant advocates, whose commentary on Cuomo over the years has not always been kind.
McKee remained unmoved, saying: "There is no one in the tenant movement who believes Andrew Cuomo is on our side…They don't call him the prince of darkness for nothing. I don't dislike him as a person. I just think he's crazy."
Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie's $2 billion gambit to goad Senate Republicans into moving on rent regulations by linking the program's future to revenue bills affecting nearly 50 counties upstate and on Long Island was deemed "unacceptable" by Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan.
Heastie said a controversial education tax credit being pushed by the Senate Republicans and Cuomo is likely off the negotiating table, but refused to completely rule it out.
They may be at loggerheads over rent regulations, but lawmakers have eagerly come to bipartisan agreement on boosting pensions for government employees. The Legislature passed four bills last week to sweeten the pensions of deputy sheriffs in Nassau and Suffolk counties, and to aid local police, firefighters and court officers.
The hunting camp in the Adirondacks where authorities believe escaped killers Richard Matt and David Sweat may have been hiding out is owned by a group of correction officers. However, a resident in the area cautioned about jumping to any conclusions based on that information.
John Stockwell, who co-leases the camp with a group of fellow officers, went to check on it (armed with a shotgun) and reportedly saw a man that could have been one of the escaped convicts running out the back.
Cops raided the cabin on Saturday and matched DNA from Matt and Sweat to evidence seized there, including a pair of grungy, prison-issued white boxer shorts. Also found: boots, bloody socks and the fingerprints of at least one fugitive.
The escapees seemed to be taking a page from the playbook of Ralph Phillips, known as Bucky, a convicted murderer who escaped from a jail outside Buffalo in 2006 and eluded capture for months by breaking into unoccupied homes, lodges and hunting camps.
"The region around Dannemora remains a primary focus of our investigation," State Police Maj. Charles E. Guess said at a news conference Monday, the 17th day of the search. The Allegany County communities where there was an unconfirmed sighting of the escaped killers were searched and have been declared clear, police said.
Cuomo said some 1,000 law enforcement officers are now involved in the search for Matt and Sweat, adding: "We won't stop" until the two are found.

When Batman and Robin came to help the country, they discovered that Diaz did not control the creature and was ultimately as terrified of it as the villagers were. By placing a prism in a house, Batman and Robin were able to scare off Diaz and his troops by making them think the Rainbow Creature was near. What happened to him afterwords is unknown.

Is there any reason to believe they're going with two Ant-Men, rather than Hank Pym with something of O'Grady's personality?
At least twice in separate interviews over the course of the films development (which no doubt will continue to evolve a bit more) those involved have dangled the prospect of either a Pym/Lang co-existence in the film or Pym/O'Grady.
dateline July 2011
Cornish says something about the script with Multiple Ant-Men:
"As for whether or not the movie itself is moving forward remains up in the air. I dont know, man. Id love for it to happen but its really up to Edgar and Marvel, Cornish said. We had heard that at one point Cornish and Wright were going to put several of the Ant-Men (meaning people that had put on superhero scientist Hank Pyms suit) into the script, meaning that they could have thrown in our personal favorite Ant-Man Eric OGrady, low-level S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent turned shadily Irredeemable Ant Man.
And again
dateline June 2012
Edgar Wright revealed some details about the planned plot of the movie:
"'The idea that we have for the adaptation is to actually involve both... Henry Pym and Scott Lang. So you actually do a prologue where you see Pym as Ant-Man in action in the 60's, in sort of 'Tales to Astonish' mode basically, and then the contemporary, sort of flash-forward, is Scott Lang's story, and how he comes to acquire the suit, how he crosses paths with Henry Pym, and then, in an interesting sort of Machiavellian way, teams up with him. "
Now if they go with the Pym/Lang duo that frees up casting to make an older Pym AND have a type of period piece film (for portions of the film) that could maybe tie into Captain America and Winter Soldier...if necessary. Not sure fans would want a 60yr old Pym though. Kinda takes Wasp out of play as well.
Even still, could just be a solo Pym movie. Leave the sequels for expanding to Lang and O'Grady. It could be the first film series to have actively evolving leads...on purpose. That would be a first would it not?

A Hooters employee who served as a ballgirl at Saturday's Philadelphia Phillies game was pretty embarrassed after realizing that the ball she scooped up and gave to a fan was a fair ball that was still in play. On the bright side, the Hooters ballgirl made a young fan very happy when she tossed him the ball, so her heart was in the right place. Video via Telly.com. H/T BI. Visit us at holdoutsports.com and follow us on Twitter @HoldoutSports.
no brains or bras
I never buy from sites that pull this "Place ad in a comment section". Get off your couch and get a real job
so i take it u know her? otherwise i'd say the one with no brains is you.
So I take it you know her because you are taking up for someone that publically did something pretty stupid. Innocent but stupid none the less. It was her job or duty to be a ball girl , which is laughable and sad in itself. She failed to do what she was there to do. Another reason why sports, media etc all business orientated and has nothing to do with talent or the "game" anymore.. What need is there for Ice girls in hockey? Hooters Ball girls? I bet some 13 year old boy would adore that and do it for free. Anyone with an ounce of intellect would see the gratuitous BS that keeps creeping into every aspect of all big business sports "shows" is full of crap and for the simple minded.. Ohhhh Look BRIGHT ORANGE and booty dahhhhhhhh ... pretty .. hhahahaha ..
My infield should look so good...
and field as good
a softball coach
Ask a stripper or single mom to be a ball girl .. Problem solved..
With an outfit like that, she can do anything she wants with balls.
At least her fanny was in the right place.
What do you mean "make a young fan happy?" What about the middle age and old fans who are looking at her T & A's?
No bra good- no helmet bad--
One of the ugliest Hooter girls I ever saw.
Ugly!!! U must have very high standards. Shes fine in my book!
hahaha THATS WHY SHE WORKS AT HOOTERS ALL BLONDE NO BRAIN ;) you go girl
I use to know some Hooters girls that were brilliant, it is not the job or the tights that is the prob.. This girl made an innocent mistake, stupid as heck considering where she was but innocent... The people putting her in this position are full of poop not the girl. They knew she had no idea what she was doing. Yet they could not pass up the money some hot girl can generate.. So they wh*@#% her out all for the money, ratings, and bottom line... She is just a tool they used.
Typical blonde. Good thing she doesn't have a job in healthcare or some other industry that depends on life or death decisions. She wouldn't make it as a nurse or doctor.
Good thing Big business does not own the healthcare industry .. Wait!! Coming soon the Candies all new wellness force of hot girls hoping you get well soon! ~
She would make it as my nurse!
GOOD! if she killed you I don't think you'd be missed :)
Blonde, need I say anymore.
your wife would miss me
Wow. Some years ago, an innocent game watcher sitting along the baselines at a Chicago Cubs game caught a ball that was 99% in the stands foul... but because the big league outfielder couldn't make the play, the whole baseball-watching universe wanted this fans head on a platter. At least he paid for his seat. This dumb bimbo just did a few of the right guys, got a chance to play ball girl, and when she ruins a play (not really that different from the fan), all the guys laugh and pretty much say "um, thats ok. She has breasts." Then you guys wonder why women don't respect you and if it wasn't for sports, you'd sit in a corner picking your nose.
She obviously doesn't watch baseball on a regular basis. Give her a friggin break!!!

Harvard's Biega flashes offensive skill without sacrificing defense
After a slow start to his collegiate career, Harvards Danny Biega has emerged as one of the top power-play quarterbacks and offensive weapons on a collegiate blueline.
Biega, a senior and captain of the Crimson, had only nine points during his freshman campaign, but in his sophomore and junior seasons, the defenseman racked up 65 points in 68 games.
As a freshman you dont always have a ton of opportunities compared to your sophomore, junior, and senior years, so it is a hierarchy thing at times, Biega said. [Being eased in] has allowed me to progress, get more points, and also get more playing time, though. read more

Beyond jQuery: JavaScript tools for the HTML5 generation
Here are three dozen JavaScript libraries tuned for mobile devices, Canvas-based animation, HTML5 video, local databases, server interaction, and more
Over drinks, one person proclaimed, "No one programs in JavaScript, they just string together jQuery calls." This statement is certainly not true, but like a hand grenade, it gets close enough to make its point.
jQuery sure seems to be everywhere, and with good reason: Its creators took all of the neat ideas from libraries like Prototype, Dojo, and Yahoo's YUI, then turned them into something that was just a tad easier to use. When jQuery nurtured fertile plug-in culture, the library became irreplaceable. One seemingly random estimate claimed that at least 70 percent of JavaScript is jQuery.

Like jQuery and YUI, MooTools offers nice, browser-independent shorthand for manipulating arrays, divs, spans, and whatnot. My favorite part continues to be the custom library construction tool that lets you select the functions you want. Check some boxes and get an entirely optimized version of MooTools with just the functions you need and none of the bloat you don't. That's lightweight.
A number of other libraries offer newer features -- for animation or data visualization or server-side processing or other niches -- or different ways of thinking about life in the browser. To get a close look at some of these newer options, I unpacked a number of libraries, wrote a few lines of code, instantiated a few objects, and pushed some code through a few browsers.
Animation and HTML5 game engines
One of the stated goals of HTML5, at least for some groups, is to replace the Flash plug-in, the gold standard for making sprites and letters dance across the screen. This change is slowly coming as the game industry and the presentation industry start to duplicate some of the sophisticated tools available in the Flash universe.
Mashi is an impressive example of how the sprites can be set in motion. It offers more than several dozen standard easing functions for moving sprites along a timeline.

Back in 1990 - Ajarn.com, June 13, 2004
Ajarn.com has a great article that explains exactly what it was like to live and work in Thailand in 1990--the convoluted process at immigration, the fact that no one could get a work permit, the 'tax clearance' procedure at Revenue Department, and the truly terrible problems with cross-town travel before the expressway, Skytrain, and meter taxis:
...The old hands will shudder to recall the dreaded trips to the Bangkok immigration when the most basic of visa extensions would require you to go in three separate rooms on three different floors. You started off on the ground floor, then it was off to room 302 to join a large nervous-looking group of visa applicants all shifting uneasily on straggly rows of plastic chairs.
Everyone waiting for that magical moment when the officer with all the medals would beckon you to his desk. There was no queuing system. There was no losing your temper but there were all sorts of communication problems. The immigration officer didn't speak a word of English, but that was your problem not his...
...But if the thought of a journey to the Immigration or the Labor Department had you quaking with fear, nothing came close to the nightmare of the tax clearance office. Tax clearance? What the hell is that I hear you cry? Well, the system was mercifully abolished in about 1991 but that didn't stop me needing to perform the duty on three occasions.
Basically for anyone who stayed in the kingdom longer than 60 days either working or as a long stay tourist, you had to show the immigration officer at your departure point that you had either not been working or had been working and paid your taxes like a good honest citizen...

It was a citation for petty theft and I am a juvenile. There was actually no arrest or probation just dismissed my citation.
White Collar Crime Lawyer
It's unclear why you have an "intake probation officer" if your case was dismissed. Perhaps there's now a new case where you are either fighting it or are now on probation for? If a citation was dismissed, it means that you were issued a citation by a law enforcement officer but the case was not pursued by the prosecuting agency.
Criminal Defense Attorney
Where you required to report to probation. On juvenile matters they will sometimes have a juvenile report to probation instead of filing the matter with the court. Oftentimes they will dispose of the case informally by having you do community service etc. You should clarify with the probation department that this refers to the petty theft. The probation officer is in the best position to advise you.
Criminal Defense Attorney
When your matter is referred to probation rather than JV court, they can dismiss your matter or put you on probation and for petty theft would be like stay away from braking the law for one year. In your case apparently PO has dismissed the matter.

Very Nice Faucets
M. Singleton from Elkview, WV – Verified Buyer
I ordered the tub faucet after I received the same versions for my bathroom sinks. I love them. I wanted a vintage look something different than just a traditional look and I am very happy with my purchase. The faucets are very heavy and are a good quality. I would definitely recommend.

Vintage Washed Denim Shorts with Rolled-Up Bottom
I got these yesterday and tried them on. LOVE THEM and my friends + boyfriend love them, too. They fit VERY flatteringly. The buttons are a little less sturdy-feeling/secure in the fabric then I would like, they seem secure ENOUGH though. These don't come with the belt, in case you were wondering. Nice material. Worth the price.

I can tell you had a lot of fun writing this one :D. And bonus points for historical characters, that's one of my favorite things in 'fiction'. Pirate Anna is best Anna.
| gryfon-spanish-werewolf chapter 1 . 3/23
Who's excited? I'm excited! Great opening chapter and really interesting writing style. You have quiet the unique voice. Can't wait to read the rest of it!
| Neveria chapter 15 . 2/10
What a wonderful story! I love both Cloud Atlas and Elsanna, so this felt like Christmas came early.
I was kind of disappointed because there was no story set in the future but that's okay. :-)
My favorite timeline was probably the Robber AU because what can I say - I love heartbreaking major character deaths.
I also immensely enjoyed hunting for the reoccurring objects. I didn't even notice them until Pirate!Elsa's necklace.
Thank you for this amazing journey through time.
| Shadowfax321 chapter 15 . 9/26/2014
Randomly stumbled across this story, and I'm glad I did. These stories were all really good! Some sad, some happy, all with a heavy dose of feels haha. And the Cloud Atlas influence really pulled me in...I love that book and movie.
| frozen3 chapter 10 . 8/8/2014
Okay, I don't know how many I'm going to read this before I stop crying. This was the most amazing thing ever. Simply. How do you even come up with these ideas? It's an insane talent! I know this story is complete but I HAD to leave a review! This story was amazing!
| Guest chapter 1 . 8/5/2014
Just by the chapter titles, I know you and I could be best friends.
| charlieboy chapter 15 . 7/23/2014
Thoroughly enjoyed every last one of it. Keep writing, much luck to you and a good day!
| Charlieboy chapter 10 . 7/23/2014
...nahhhh that wasn't sad whats a typical bandit story without death no? Still though, excuse me while I strangle Anna and Hans in my mind.
| Charlieboy chapter 9 . 7/23/2014
Damnit! You're playing with my emotions woman! Lol anyway in all seriousness, she should move out of Berlin before the Red Army comes marching on. Otherwise, some of the consequences would be far too brutal, for a blonde and blue-eyed woman no less.
| Charlieboy chapter 8 . 7/23/2014
Wow... thats uhh quite... sad? I mean sad in a heartbreaking sortof way if there's no 'getting together' after all that feels. I mean, weirdly enough, I got hit on a not-so-out friend ages back (no clue he was REALLY gay) but I just kind of awkwardly laughed it off and so on. I didn't really care but now I'm can't stop seeing gorgeous & beautiful Elsa awkwardly laughed at and rejected!
| Charlieboy chapter 5 . 7/23/2014
Okay... I don't exactly pay attention to chapter titles but you got a chuckle out of me. I thought it was just a coincidence but now I would be suprised if I didn't see an "Apologize" chapter title!
| Charlieboy chapter 2 . 7/23/2014
This concept is truly fascinating! A sort of throughout the times kinda thing. You're quite good at this and here's hoping the rest is just as interesting as the first two! :)
| cleverthrow chapter 15 . 7/13/2014
This story was so good. So original, so well written! Just awesome

"Story of My Life" (CD Single)
Common Sense Media says
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that "Story of My Life" is a sweet single from One Direction's Midnight Memories album. The band's song features clean lyrics and a sentimental music video, but there's a scene that implied one band mate's relatives have passed away.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's the story?
STORY OF MY LIFE is the second single from Midnight Memories. The boys have taken a literal interpretation of the song's title and share stories from their childhoods in the music video, giving fans an intimate glimpse into their lives.
Is it any good?
Sharing thousands of personal photos makes these British and Irish boys even more lovable. The attention to detail in the recreated scenes is certainly remarkable, and, although the folksy, guitar-driven ballad is a different sound for the pop quintet, Directioners will be swooning over the sweet lyrics and the touching music video.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about One Direction's music video. Why do you think the band chose to share these personal photos? Which recreated story was your favorite, and why?
Take a look at some of your old family photos. What stories do they tell? Try to recreate them and see how much you've grown.
Do you like the folksy sound of this single or do you prefer the band's pop songs?
