Another step towards healing from trauma

I had a series of events so disturbing and violating I sold my home of 20 years asap.

Today I participated in another workshop and it was another step towards healing.

One biggie was the boundary exercise working with a partner on respecting boundaries... it was very powerful establishing boundaries and working with the body mind connection to establish boundaries and have them honored and respected.

Great work.


There are over 8 million people and NYC is Misogynistic NYC so it ain't easy but the workshop was superb.

Corruption NY Politics NYPost and NY Daily News just today Sunday

Before I get to the New York Post pages filled with New York corruption and my thoughts...

First and foremost I want to repeat I want to make a citizen's arrest -- I want to arrest Mike Bloomberg for hiring his campaign staff to the tune of over $2 million in tax payer money which I see as THEFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congressman Gregory Meeks and State Assemblyman Smith --if stealing money from Huricane Katrina Victims was not bad enough it gets worse because they continue to be exposed by The New York Post for stealing from the community in Queens but the money did go to friends, "office expenses", "independent contractors", etc. http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/queens/pols_charity_acks_qns_pee_wee_players_DndVdli8qh1EcS2namYfiKe

Hey Mike if the State Police appear to be acting like the mob -- um -- who are they answering to....? Answer the accidental gov who is implicated up to his eye balls.


2) from yesterday -- the corrupt Rangel who is the poster boy for being above the law and asking the people to hold him to a lower standard -- accept his corrupt dealings and Charlie do you still have the 4 luxury rent stabilized apartments? That is criminal too.

4) How obscene is this? Very -- apparently these guys want to support the intimidation, silencing and possible buying the victim of spousal abuse with a $40,00 Lexus that has the accidental gov. Paterson implicated up to his eye balls. He needs to resign and get a lawyer to help him avoid jail time. Ditto for the two men his appointed including his top guy running the State Troopers like the Mob....

I guess these guys are saying that Paterson is above the law and to hold him to a lower standard....

Beating up women is okay and it is okay to threaten and intimidate them, even buy them off.....These is sick stuff.

Suzannah B. Troy's YouTube documentary series on Giuseppie "Guiseppi Logan" part 17 in series

I visited GL yesterday and I thought I had solved the mystery of why his phone did not work but a new problem emerged and that is the cel phone would not ring and I went to the settings and could not resolve the problem. Again I got a T-Mobile Angel because he is 75 and he really needs this phone to work. I will escort GL to the party to celebrate his new CD "The Giuseppi Logan Quintet".
5pm at the downtown music gallery

This YouTube is the 17th in my Giuseppie Logan YouTube documentary series.

Matt Lavelle acknowledge me on facebook which means a lot http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=332368987431

Another touching comment regard my coverage of Giuseppie Logan

Giuseppe Logan is no longer homeless, playing bass clarinet in need of repair, Tompkins Sq. Park:

i discovered this man via the wonderful Signal To Noise article...his work floors me! amazing. thanks for posting this...very heartwarming..

Folks -- this means to much to me. It is so exhausting and on top of it to be harassed and stalked in the East Village and on the internet is extremely disturbing. To have to tell them about Bob Arihood stalking me in Tompkins and the anti-semtic gay bashing comments he posted that accuse me of what he is most guilty of in concert with Lincoln Anderson and John Sutter's staff evblogger69@gmail.com that answers email for Anderson and The Villager -- very disturbing....and the racist attacks on a homeless African American woman who yes behaves awfully when drunk but is a sweet soul when sober --- yet Arihood and Anderson demonize her and belittle her. She told me she needs rehab but she got an extended stay in prison. Ozzy Osbourne did terrible things drunk and high. It took Osbourne a very long time to get it right but if he had been a woman like Marlene who is poverty level, blind in one eye -- he would have been in jail for an extended time frame.

it has all been exhausting so beautiful comments like this are what it is all and the Giuseppie Logan video documentary series I have posted on YouTube all takes place on the Lower East Side starting in Tompkins where ironically I was stalked and gay bashed although not gay etc. by Bob Arihood.

Pete Geshon's piece in Signal to Noise "Out from the Shadow" was powerful and I was fully acknowledged which is rare. So thanks to Pete and to this wonderful person who commented today.

It doesn't makes deaing with racism, anti-semitism, slander, gay bashing, etc. any easier but it helps me to focus on all the positive work I have done and achieved in the East Village and Giuseppie Logan is part of this work so thanks to GL as well.

I know I made a huge difference in Giuseppie Logan's life today helping him with his phone, visiting him and helping him to get some things he needs like a hair cut.

"Giuseppi" Giuseppie Logan's son Jay asked me to ask GL to get his beard trimmed and a hair cut. GL was only too happy to oblige! Don Juan Barbershop

John was a very cool, nice guy and he took us first thing in the morning thank goodness!!!!!!

Very tired Suzannah B. Troy cozying up to a Palm Tree East Village

Started the day very early and I had to spend even more time with T-Mobile yet again to help Giuseppie Logan with his phone which this time would not ring. Another angel at T-Mobile helped me and we had to reset his phone to factory settings. At 75 it is very important he has a telephone that works so now his phone does work again.

Mike Bloomberg and cuts....start by cutting your vanity hires aka campaign staff

Hey king Mike, You want to save tax payers money than cut all the campaign staff you just hired with 6 figure salaries to preserve your legacy and pay them out of your own pocket! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJM5-Rnfr_A Cut borough presidents and if you can't do that make all politicians take the subway, cut their stipends, have city council unvote themselves a raise. Cut Scott Stringers perks like a speech writer and fire city council members w/lousy attendance records. The fairs were a pain so I won't miss them but you hiring your campaign staff in the midst of a budget crisis you knew was coming for quite a while is criminal. What is happening with the pensions? Last year we gave millions to financial advisors to advise the city which was criminal. Cut spending that is criminal Mike. Thanks, Suzannah B. Troy

Rangel is like an alcoholic that can't admit he is one and blames everyone else

Is this like Larry Seabrook and Kendall Stewart who both happen to vote to extend term limits and pleaded innocent stating they had no knowledge one a senior aid were stealing tax payer money. We the American People must consider that politicians are lying and taking what ever they can get as they ***** the tax payers. By the way did Rangel give up any of the 4 luxury rent stabilized apt. and was that a secret his staff kept from him as well? Thanks, Suzannah B. Troy

I wish I could commandeer a police car and drive down to City Hall to make a citizen's arrest.

I need a paddy wagon, might as well arrest city council for voting themselves a raise and extending term limits....um stealing tax payer money. Mike hiring his campaign staff is stealing tax payer money especially in

Fighting Bloomberg and Quinn flushing democracy down the toilet brought me close with animal activists - this one protesting Nivea and I agree

http://slcslavedriver.blogspot.com/2010/02/xxxs-ooos.html

1. On Valentine’s Day, Nivea initiated a heartless campaign using NYC’s carriage horses to promote their product. The horses were covered with Nivea signs. It was ugly.

If you have not yet written to Nivea to complain about this; to say you will boycott their product unless they put an apology on their web site - you can still do so. See this link for more information. http://banhdc.org/archives/ch-news-20100214.shtml

2. And to all you "Anti-Equestrian Eco-Terrorists" check out this Carriage driver's blog: "Confessions of a Slave Driver" -- a driver from Utah is very upset about our campaign and is starting his own. At least he has the name of what he does right.

I could not reach GL because he had locked his phone but didn't have the code so I walked over this morning in the storm. Brought him a bagel and some shirts a friend gave me. I called T-Mobile and got a smart saint who helped me solve the problem. I want GL to have a phone working at all times.

The NY Daily News editorial calls for Paterson to leave office now

If he did resign he would have to go to rehab for those addicted to celebrity and power. He really acted like he was high on power lacking any humility.

http://www.nydailynews.com/opinions/editorials/index.html


The latest scandal is just too awful and he must go. Spousal abuse, intimidation to drop charges and more....read the article...

If you don't have time read this one sentence from the article....
"It was Paterson who gave David Johnson, a man with a limited professional resume and a history of abuse complaints, an undeserved place at the center of the gubernatorial inner circle."

Translating the above sentence -- what an idiot!!!!!!!!!

You know that other business he supposedly doesn't run, Bloomberg News? Well, I have met the nicest people from all over the world that work for Mike here in NYC and they all are here on their visas....genuinely nice people but in the midst of this economic crisis I can't help wondering why he can't find people here in New York with the same tech skills?

Sea World Killer Whale kills trainer -- they show the way sealed off in a small space

They showed an image as cruel and humans treating beautiful animals as entertainment. She fell and slipped in to the water and she was killed by an animal that was not meant to be in an aquarium performing circus like shows.

The image I saw on the news was taking human nature to another stupid and cruel level punishing the enormous animal but keeping it in a small space.

I think of the film "Harold and Maude" when Maude demands Harold accompany her to a pet store to set the animals free.

I am sorry for this woman and all her loved ones but I am also very sorry for the killer whale and all God's creatures which need protecting from humans and ditto for Mother Earth.

http://www.saveconeyisland.net/?p=1030

Dear Coney Island Supporter:

You probably already saw the news - the Mayor and Zamperla USA announced last week their plans for the former Astroland site. Zamperla plans to bring 19 new rides to Coney Island this summer as part of a new park to be known as "Luna Park."

Suzannah B. Troy's thoughts -- I am happy for Coney Island and too bad Mike Bloomberg would not do anything to help our communities except support mass displacement and the tear downs and supersizing for his developer buddies but I am happy for Coney Islanders...

Suzannah touched by kindness

I can't write about the details but today I had a conversation that makes me believe if I dropped dead today I would know one small dream will come true with or without me.

I was told I would be a big part but I said I have been through way too much and I don't have the energy to be a big part but if down the road I can be a small part...that would be wonderful.

I know I will be acknowledged rather than "robbed" which is a rare feeling.

Activist forwards me Rob Hollander's email Bloomberg sees the light --- and MTA discontinues M8

Friends and neighbors,

Good news and bad. The good: Bloomberg has seen the light that new affordable housing wedded to market-rate development leads only to net upscaling and displacement, whereas preserving affordable housing stabilizes communities as they are.
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/22/nyregion/22housing.html?ref=todayspaper

The bad news: MTA plans to discontinue the M8 bus on weekends. A hearing will be held on cuts in Manhattan at FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology), Haft Auditorium, 7th Avenue, Thursday, March 4, at 6pm. Further details:
http://www.mta.info/news/stories/?story=11

Rob Hollander

Hey Rob: Do ya think Bloomie figured it out when his campaign people made all those phone calls asking New Yorkers to vote for Mike Bloomberg and they got recordings "this telephone number has been disconnected" or people hanging up on them?

Under Bloomberg it has been massive displacement....The only thing Mike Bloomberg, Amanda the people's Burden - socialite mega millionaire city planner and John Sexton, pres. of NYU have not done is provide buses trains and trolleys to move people out. Ditto for Columbia University's abuse of eminent domain to move the entire neighborhood of Manhattanville out.

That is the chic thang to do right...

I would add to my song,

Corruption, Corruption, Corruption NY Politicos so corrupt, NY, NY if you are going to rip off people be a politico here!

The people's threshold for corruption is taller than our high sky scrapers, if you want to rob and steal from the tax payers,

get kick backs New York is your town!

No matter what Seabrook and Arroyo plead innocent and the people vote for these corrupt politicos so let us hope this time around they are successfully prosecuted for as many misdeeds as possible and more city council members join them.


I can't even address Paterson, the accidental gov who they are renaming da Nile for -- living in denial and blaming everyone but himself but my fun.

Bloomberg has yet to account for $400,000 of 750,000 he gave the Independent party 3 days before the election to a shell group that did not get legit paperwork to a month after the election.

Christine Quinn sponsored 2 million for Dermott and they gave her campaign donations but the project never got built.

The streets are in the worse condition ever seen in quite a while. The streets were better in Colonial Times...Thanks Mike and Amanda the people's Burden.

Bottom line: Albany is a regular UN of bad behavior. If the press and prosecutors are being driven by some kind of ethnic bias, they are keeping it well hidden.

Con Ed man hole 2nd Avenue near 3rd Street

I asked what they were doing....they said maintenance...

You all know how concerned I am about infrastructure concerns especially because the mayor and socialite megamillionaire city planner, Amanda the people's Burden pushed such a reckless stupid tsunami of community crushing development on old New York's infrastructure.

ps City wide....the streets are in horrifyingly bad shape, sidewalks too....

Notorious the film and Alicia Key's "Empire State of Mind part 2", Giuseppie Logan & me New York

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notorious_(2009_film)

http://www.musicloversgroup.com/alicia-keys-empire-state-of-mind-part-2-lyrics-and-video/

I am anti-drug. I have one activist friend that wants all drugs legalized and I understand his point of view. I consider pharmaceutical companies legalized drug dealers dealing to kids as well as adults but that is just me. I have never smoked pot and the one and only time I have held an illegal drug in my hand was performing jury duty. They gave us a baggie of a drug to hold and examine. Drug dealing hurts the community and robs them of many things including safe streets and hope.

That being said "Notorious" was an excellent film. BIG's Mom made it clear from the get go where she stood and at the end of his young life you get the vibe if he had lived he would have cleaned up his lyrics as well as well as his life. He did stop selling drugs but he lived his life to the excess. The film wants to make it clear he made peace with the people he loved before he died.

I love Ella Fitzgerald. I don't care for rap but in the beginning of the film you see how writing poetry to express his pain at his Dad not being in his life is powerful. The film held my attention and I was moved. I went to ITunes but I could not find one song that did not have some word I could live with out. If he had lived I believe he would have cleaned up his lyrics and become an activist. I know he wouldn't have allowed his children to sell drugs. I hope his family are turning to activism.

I filmed Giuseppie Logan in Tompkins playing Begin the Beguine not knowing he had made 2 records in the 1960's and completely self destructed ending up in prison and mental institutions. He sold drugs but unlike BIG he did not get out and rise to the fame he could have. I had no idea when I posted this YouTube I would rock people's world and be contacted by people all over the world either celebrating he is still alive, deeply moved he still is playing and even composing music or they contact.

I do see GL's story becoming a film and also maybe a documentary as well. I do consider my YouTubes a documentary of their own but I mean a mainstream one. I have to laugh because I am often erased, my work stolen but Peter Gershon, publisher of "Signal to Noise" wrote a beautiful article with stunning photos of the young Giuseppi Logan (for the album covers he dropped the "e") and the old GL -- "Out from the Shadow". Tim Madison was the first person other than Raggedy of YouTube who wrote "he lives!" to contact me and explain the power and meaning of my YouTube and he told me go pick up Signal to Noise. I expected to be erased but instead I was fully acknowledged.

For the first time in over 30 years GL and his equally musically gifted son Jay Logan will be reunited and apparently my YouTube series played apart in this reunion to be and I hope to be there for part of it of course to film. On a very sad note, Jay's son, an honor student was killed by gun violence and Jay has turned to activism to get guns off the street.

Sept. 11 is something I have never fully wrapped my heart and mind around and than I had a series of shocking and terrible events that caused me to sell my home of 20 years. I have "little fame" and have been meeting with a lawyer to discuss the darker aspects of dealing with being out there so I am drained and very tired. I think of leaving NYC. When you sell your home in NYC, the City acts like Mafia, holding a gun to your head pressuring you to commit to a new property. I did and it is not for me. I think of selling and leaving New York. The only way I could imagine staying is being rich enough to have two homes -- one out in the country somewhere peaceful and quiet.

When I listen to Alicia Keys singing "Empire State of Mind part 2" I laugh because there are lyrics borrowed from another famous NY song...yes? but her soullful song makes me fall in love with NYC all over again and makes me want to stay not what what.

Phil shows me his Whiskers decorated prosthetic decorated like a custom motorcycle or as if he was tattooed

Phil of Phil and Randi the loving Mom and Pop duo behind Whiskers Holistic Pet Store -- click here to see their home page with the portraits of their beloved pets now in Heaven that is the art for their store and now for Phil's prosthetic http://1800whiskers.com/V2/template2.php?CHAPITRE=100 .

It is a miracle that Phil is alive and there was talk of possibly losing his other leg but never was their an ounce of self pity which is rare and of course Phil went the other extreme having his prosthetic made over like a giant tattoo or like a custom paint job on his motorcycle.

During this harsh and heartbreaking times it is marvelous to be around someone so inspiring. He is in physical therapy and already walking remarkably well.

Bless you Phil and Randi for all you do for four legged and two legged New Yorkers!!!!! By the way Phil just turned 68 but he seems like he is 40!!!!!

Ottendorfer Library cuts hours, at least they have not gone the heartbreaking way of Donnell

Small cuts for now but big shifts...


Mayor Mike Bloomberg spends over a 100,000 million dollars with sub-zero trickle down to win, buy or steal an election -- your word choice but we are having harsh closings, cuts and lay-offs...many New Yorkers are being asked to take pay cuts if they haven't been layed-off...

I can't express how important libraries are and how sick I feel when I walk past Donnell closed with a large American Flag hanging over the entrance. I have a photo of the heartbreak on this blog.

Seniors and many homeless seek shelter in the libraries and many poor and homeless use the free computers which have opened up their worlds.

I demanded community outreach resource centers from NYU even meeting with Alicia Hurley and gang of NYU. They did go back to their bosses and their bosses said no.

When you start demanding community outreach resources from NYU because the use the term community facility to supersize, bust through zoning yet NYU and all the Universities that jumped on the NYU bandwagon joining NYU in mega dorming the East Village to death, that would Cooper Union who is truly an evil real estate magnate just like NYU (Peter Cooper has to be turning over in his grave), NY Law and their dorm has balconies like Mike Red Square Rosen's development that looks like a prototype for dorms, The New School and SVA.

What would Ayn Rand say about all this and the hideous ugly sky piercing mega dorms--these "community facilities" including Cooper Union's and Cooper Union does have an architectural school. We know NYU doesn't have an architectural school. Come take the soulless architecture tour of the East Village...massive dorms, or dorm like buildings and sky piercing hotels and condos.

The universities confused the East Village with dorm fodder and they owe the community big as well learning to understand the word "NO!" stop crushing our communities and ditto for Columbia University who abused eminent domain to demand an entire neighborhood called Manhattanville move for their expansion. Columbia U. claims they are doing blah blah for the neighborhood but is is bull. Columbia U. made sure to put powerful people on their boards including buying off David Dinkins who once opposed them but has joined the many politicians that have sold out to real estate developers. Christine Quinn is a sell-out to developers and Mike Bloomberg's puppet so of course NYU wanted her in. Remember John Sexton, president of NYU ran down to City Hall to testify we must have Mike Bloomberg for a third term.

Tigers around the world have asked Tiger to cease and desist using his name

http://www.tmz.com/

Elin wearing head to toe Nike gear making her a walking advertisement for what this is really all about was a warm up for a very disturbing news conference that could have been part of Martin Scorsese's new film http://www.shutterisland.com/#/home.
Also making a cameo appearance was Tiger's mom as if she wanted to embody every enabler and the machine that helps celebrity-train wrecks to spiral out of control...thanks mom.

Very disturbing footage including the video camera panning to an audience that resembles the Saturday Night Live crew but no comedian was planted in the audience.

The only heartbreaking point he was spot on about was how wrong the media was stalking his children and publishing private information about where they go to school, etc.

What Tiger, his Mom and the people behind this debacle don't understand is -- it is not between just him and his wife. He has greatly harmed his children and family. I don't think this will be easy for his children to deal with as they grow up.

When he says this is just between him and his wife that is not true because he made it about him and many other women often telling them that they were the one so it does include them and their families as well. It includes people that believed in him but today he did apologize to the people that believed in him but Elin's body draped in Nike from head to toe spoke volumes about what this is really all about.

Most Americans would not switch places with Tiger for all the money and fame he has. His habits some men say are enviable but most people think truly is about immense loneliness and anxiety. Another "sexual Peter Pan" that did not want to leave Sexual Never Never land and paid an enormous price as well as greatly harming innocent victims starting with his and Elin's children let alone young people that believed in him or should I say "the brand Tiger Woods".

Public relations experts should finally learn that line "it is just between me and my wife" just doesn't fly.

New Yorkers against Monserrate send me their views and news on Monserrate

http://www.scribd.com/doc/27118962/2-19-10-3aopspcl

So, where does that leave this group?

In the Special Election, Monserrate may run. We trust that by now that his conduct and stances are abundantly clear to the people of his district. We see no reason to beat a dead horse.

When the group was founded, it was largely as a satire of Hiram Monserrate (and his supporters') vote against marriage equality in light of his domestic abuse. Monserrate's acknowledged loss of reputation, as well as his fall from office, should serve as a clear warning that such hypocrisy won't be taken lightly.

However humorously and personally we put it at first, we do think the principle of equality for all before the law should be above petty personal politics of New York State's largely dysfunctional Senate.

Therefore this group will be largely kept inactive, until such time that marriage equality is put back on the agenda. If and when that time comes, folks may get invites to events, other groups, etc. We'll try to be sparing with it.

In the meantime, those who wish to discuss or endorse candidates for the Special Election are welcome to do so within this group – but that's your own prerogative.

We look forward to fighting for equality for all, and fighting against bigotry and hypocrisy where we find it.

This was part of a posting sent to me and I would add this link

http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/queens/no_show_hiram_is_on_the_hooky_h8nNm1uMwv7aRYr0TEtMQN

and my fear that New Yorkers either don't read the news or have way too high a threshold for corruption and toxic waste behavior. Just look at how many people made it back to City Hall and Albany that shouldn't have.

Doctors Without Borders sent me this-- I donated money for Haiti to them

Dear friend,

On Monday, December 14, 2009, Elizabeth Vargas of ABC News 20/20 and Emmy-award winning investigative journalist, hosted a one-night LIVE event in 440 movie theaters across the country featuring the critically acclaimed documentary "Living in Emergency: Stories of Doctors Without Borders." "Living in Emergency" gives a rare inside look into the Nobel Peace Prize-winning Doctors Without Borders through the eyes of four doctors who are forced to confront the limits of their idealism in the face of overwhelming medical needs in war-torn Congo and post-conflict Liberia.

Following the documentary, Vargas moderated a town hall discussion with Sebastian Junger, best-selling author of The Perfect Storm and Vanity Fair contributing editor, Dr. Tom Krueger and Dr. Chris Brasher who are featured in the documentary, Sophie Delaunay, executive director of Doctors Without Borders, and Dr. Walter T. Gwenigale, Minister of Health & Social Welfare, Republic of Liberia. The discussion took audience members behind the scenes of one of the leading international medical emergency organizations.

Please take a few minutes to answer some questions about your interest in this special event. Your feedback is an invaluable resource to Doctors Without Borders in our efforts to evaluate our engagements with the public and our supporters.

Thank you for your support.

Another shockingly stupid NYU student harasses me on YouTube ho hum but they have Pink as their favorite

I couldn't find the link so the good news was I found a working link to Pink singing "Glitter in the Air" at the Grammy's and you have to wait until half way through the video to see her why so many people love the performance.

My friend is taking me to see Cirque du Soleil http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/when they are back here in NYC.

Last time we went together was when they performed in Battery Park City.

p.s. The NYU student wrote me back and said I was harsh and she is a fan. I give her credit because mostly I get cowardly anonymous commentors but still her comment which I deleted reminded me of those awful Cooper Union students that are not anti-establishment giving me a hard time. It is really sad. The neighborhood is sinking like the Titanic and all that will be left are dorms, hotels and bars.... Anyway she has guts writing me back. I want NYU students to tell John Sexton to stop destroying what is left of our neighborhoods every where NYU occupies and pushes out our communities. I want community out reach resource centers and I demanded them at a rally for Whole Earth Bakery and Kitchen were I happen to be the only one to honor Filomena Silvestri's memory and her memory-- the fact she died at 94 knowing we won a mini-miracle -- her and her son Peter's bakery would not be thrown out on the street was never acknowledge in any coverage because I spoke up and I happen to also demand these community outreach resource centers.

NYU, Cooper Union, NY Law, SVA, The New School all followed NYU's cunning move to use the term community facility to bust through zoning and yet exclude the community and it has meant the death of our communties from Columbia U. to NYU to Cooper Union to NY Law dorm on 3rd Street so if NYU students or Cooper Union students want to go to their presidents and speak up for the community please do. At least Cooper Union's president stated to a news anchor "Cooper Union is a real estate magnate."

Yes, I am harsh because I have been treated so and you would be amazed who is involved in aiding and abetting NYU. Very disturbing. People attending Hilly Kristal's memorial said when NYU came up they thought of me. Apparently we felt the same.

Because of NYU tearing down St. Ann's next to where I lived for 20 years & the USPS's illegal air sale to NYU not notifying the State I follow churche

I am Jewish, not Christian but when Cardinal Egan starting selling churches like he was having a bake sale I of course wrote him and most specifically about St. Ann's at 120 East 12th Street.

If anyone has not walked by than you must. You must also know that NYU bought the air -- yes in NYC "air is for sale" and for big bucks and the USPS sold it without notifying the State of New York as legally obligated because St. Ann's from 1847 was a historical site and therefore legally the State had to be notified and before the sale could legally go through they were to examine if this was in the best interest of the community, environmental concerns, etc.

Just like chronically blocking the fire hydrant outside my now ex-home (which thanks to me I believe finally they have stopped doing) the USPS was confident they were above the law and could get away with with not notifying the State which NYU was of course very pleased about because the goal was to tear down this historical church that had been a beacon to so many including even homeless men and women that would sleep on the steps.

I will always remember the parishioners crying and praying on the street after being turned out. I wish NYU students and USPS employees would have to watch a tape of that heartbreak as well as the public to let the people know what NYU and the USPS. The USPS makes the Mafia look warm and cuddly and I can tell you that from first hand experience as well as the illegal air sale. It is startlingly to see United States on their uniform and now they abuse their federal status in the worst ways....I am sure there are many that would laugh at me....The United States, Federal Status -- abuse....or cry.

My maternal Grandfather was a mail man in the Bronx so go figure.

Anyway I can't keep up with all the news about Churches but I do visit this blog from time to time....http://www.ausrosvartunyc.blogspot.com/
