Legendary Ape King Kong Confronts Roosevelt Island Tram Riders - Yikes!!!

Some riders of the Roosevelt Island Tram find soaring high above the East River a bit scary particularly in high winds rocking and rolling the cabin.

But heights and wind are nothing compared to confronting

According to Dacs Dacs:
Board the Roosevelt Island Aerial tram to escape the giant ape who is wreaking havoc in New York. Soon you´re about to smell the legendary banana breath...

This recreation was done with Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 and custom-made models (created with SketchUp and Blender). Kudos to the designers and cast members of the original attraction at Universal Studios Orlando.

Roosevelt Island Resident And Author of Carnal Abuse By Deceit Joyce Short Appears On ABC News Nightline Segment On Rape By Fraud

Roosevelt Island resident and author of Carnal Abuse By Deceit Joyce Short

Image From ABC News Nightline

appeared on January 8 ABC News Nightline Segment about rape by fraud.
Ms Short adds:
Rape by fraud or impersonation could easily happen in any NY school, college or university - with the identical, despicable results as the Indiana case! NY's Penal Code has no definition for consent, and there is no law against sexual assault by fraud, deception or impersonation.

Back in July, I introduced Rep Sally Siegrist (IN) to Asm. Rebecca Seawright, our Assembly Member here on Roosevelt Island and the Upper Eastside.


As you can see, they're sharing a PDF of my soon to be released booklet, "Your consent - The Key to conquering Sexual Assault." Every Roosevelt Islander should watch my TEDx Talk, "like" it, and share it with everyone they know. And they should contact Asm. Seawright's office at 212-288-4607 to encourage her efforts to introduce a sexual assault by fraud law, and a law defining consent for NY State.
Here's the full Rape By Fraud Nightline segment



and Ms Short's TED talk - When Yes Means No, the Truth About Consent.

Learn More About The Single Payer NY State Health Act At Carter Burden Roosevelt Island Senior Center Thursday January 10 - Mayor de Blasio Announces Public Option Health Plan For All New York City Residents

The Carter Burden Roosevelt Island Senior Center is hosting a presentation on the proposed NY State Health Act on Thursday, January 10.


Roosevelt Island Senior Center Open to the Public Presents New York Health Act Discussion

Learn about the latest health care legislation

Thursday, January 10, 2018 Time: 1:00 PM-2:00 PM 546 Main Street

Roosevelt Island, NY 10044

Presenter

Henry Moss, PhD
Board Member
Physicians for a National Health Program

The New York State Health Act A. Gottfried 4738/S. Rivera 4840 was proposed as a universal, single-payer health care plan that will provide comprehensive health care coverage for
all New Yorkers.

The New York State Health Act is pending NYS Senate approval and therefore will need you to call your state senator.

All residents, regardless of immigration status, will be covered for primary, preventive, and specialty care; hospitalization; mental health; dental, vision, and hearing; and prescription drugs and
medical supplies.


The New York Health Act is the Cure for PIISD from Campaign for New York Health on Vimeo.

Yesterday, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio announced a public option plan to guarantee health care for all New York City residents.


Transcript of Mayor de Blasio's press conference announcing the NYC Health Plan here.

Also, below is an October 2018 presentation, including tomorrow's speaker Henry Moss,  about the NY State Health Act.



On the other hand, the Albany Times Union reports:
A relatively new coalition aiming to raise awareness of the pitfalls for a single-payer, universal healthcare system for New York has acquired at least a dozen new organizations in the last few weeks.

Members of the Realities of Single Payer say they do not oppose universal health coverage, but take issue with Assemblyman Dick Gottfried’s proposal, which is one Senate vote shy of passage in the state Legislature....

NYPD 114th Precinct Recovers Loaded Gun And Other Contraband From Roosevelt Island

NYPD 114th precinct tweets this afternoon:

I asked the NYPD:
Can you provide more details regarding the recovery of loaded gun and contraband?
What were the circumstances involved in the recovery?
Were there any arrests,
Where was the gun found,
Was it used in any crime?
Any other info?
An NYPD spokesperson replied:
All of these questions that you have asked are still pending and under investigation....
Will update when more info received from NYPD or Roosevelt Island Operating Corp.

During the September 20 Roosevelt Island Emergency Preparedness Town Hall Meeting, NYPD 114 Precinct Officer Keith Matthes described working with the Roosevelt Island Public Safety Department.



NYPD 114 Precinct Commander Deputy Inspector Osvaldo Nunes spoke to the Roosevelt Island community following the waterfront promenade gunshot incident this summer. Here's what he had to say.

UPDATE 6:30 PM - The NYPD Spokesperson adds:
In regards to the 2 search warrants executed early this morning, they were executed at 540 Main Street and 625 Main Street. Although still under investigation and pending ballistic analysis, we recovered a firearm that is believed to have been used in the shots fired over the East River, which struck a high rise building on the Upper East Side back in August. At least 10 rounds of ammunition, marijuana and narcotics paraphernalia were also recovered.

The search warrants are a result of new intelligence recently obtained.

We arrested Farris Karoma on new gun charges. His charges for the reckless endangerment/shots fired case is still open.

Hey Susan, RIOC President Susan Rosenthal Answers Questions From Roosevelt Island Residents On Octagon BBQ Area Fencing, Unsafe Seawall Netting, Basketball Clinic, Sprinkler Fountains, Youth Center Building Renovation, Google Maps, Lighthouse Foot Bridges & Pedestrian Access To 59th Street Bridge

The Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) has a recent new communication feature for residents, - Hey Susan - in which RIOC President Susan Rosenthal will answer questions you ask her.

Here's the fourth installment of Hey Susan.

HEY SUSAN! Please consider, fix and do something about (fill in the blank)
An occasional column of questions and answers to and from RIOC President and CEO Susan Rosenthal

A drawing of a face

Description generated with high confidenceHEY SUSAN! – I was wondering if the fences that were installed by the Octagon in April (and originally expected to be down by June) are now a permanent fixture?  One of the “curmudgeon bloggers” on the Island spoke with a worker at the end of October who said it would be gone in two weeks, yet here we are almost in December and the eyesore is still there. Additionally, is the fence preventing working from removing the large limbs that cracked during the early snowstorm and are now precariously hanging over picnic tables? Given how seriously RIOC has taken tree removal lately, this seems like it would be a priority.

SUSAN: You may have noticed, since last month, that the green tarps along the fence line of the project have been removed. As you may know the City’s Department of Environmental Protection built an access road along the path from Main Street to the Promenade. RIOC had no control of the timing and or pace toward completion of the construction. When we inquired and met with the DEP staff in December, we were informed the fencing will be removed once the sod has an opportunity to knit i.e. become firmly rooted along the road. The tarps’ removal was a compromise to provide better street lighting and visibility in the area. And rest assured, we’ll have any hanging or downed tree limbs removed before the fencing is removed and the area is open again to the public.

HEY SUSAN! When will the orange netting finally be replaced by the new metal railings along the river, between the subway and Island House? That stretch of the railings surely has more foot traffic, especially of children, than the stretch that has already been completed by Cornell, for example.
I cannot be the only parent who finds the planning and pace of the replacement of the railings unacceptably dangerous. In several places the orange netting is torn, leaving large gaps through which any young child could fall or hurt themselves. A more minor consideration is the toys, scooters etc. that could roll through those gaps and pollute the environment. 

With winter weather ahead, I am concerned that progress on finishing the replacement of the railings along that stretch appears to have stalled completely. I would be grateful for an update, not to mention some explanation behind the poor planning of removing existing railings many months before the replacement railings could be installed. 

Clearly the old railings would have been safer and more cost-effective and environmentally- friendly than plastic netting that rips. Many thanks in advance for your attention to these matters. 

SUSAN: I had my staff do a walk through and we found only one section of orange netting, near the Meditation Steps, that was ripped. We’ve asked the contractor to get that fixed today.

As you know, the long deteriorating Roosevelt Island seawall railings that run along the majority of the Island’s shoreline, about 3.5 miles in length, are being replaced with new anti-corrosive steel railings. The $8.7 million project is being completed by Elit Green Builders Corporation which so far has completed about half of the project. The work is on-going – removals and installations on the eastside and westside of the Island – depending on the weather (the concrete pours can only occur in dry weather at 40 degrees or higher) and when railings arrive from the foundry where they are being custom made. The work is expected to continue through the spring.


HEY SUSAN! Will there be a basketball clinic on Saturdays for kids over the winter?

SUSAN: Yes, we are finalizing the program schedule now. An announcement will be made shortly, and information can be found on our website at https://rioc.ny.gov/382/Youth-Center.

HEY SUSAN! I’ve asked this question before and you haven’t responded. What about better sprinkler systems for the children in summer heat? In such a nice neighborhood, there should be better sprinkler system for the kids to use in the summer time. Will improvements be made to the one by the baby park? Or, will one be added to the park across from the school? 

SUSAN: The spray fountain at Blackwell Park was turned off temporarily for a couple weeks during the summer for water testing and turned back on in August. It will be turned back on in the Spring once we begin using the irrigation system again. We haven’t received any complaints about its quality. What would you like to see improved? Also, there is no plan to add a spray fountain at Capobianco Field across from PS/IS 217.

We have installed new padded ground surfaces at both Blackwell and Al Lewis parks this summer. There will be additional improvements at Blackwell – more play equipment, improved seating at the courts etc. coming this year as well as new swings installed at Octagon Park.  As you can see, we are continuing to upgrade our parks for the greater enjoyment of all our families and children. Please continue to share your ideas as we move forward.

HEY SUSAN! Is there a new ETA on when the Youth Center will be moved back to 506 Main Street?
The last date I was told was November 6. I was then told it was pushed to the first week of December.
Is there a new time frame now? Moving the program back to Main Street doesn’t seem to be a priority the way it once seemed to be.

SUSAN: First, our existing program, temporarily located on the second floor of Sportspark, is doing great. Our original plan for 506 Main was just to complete a facelift. Once we got into and fully examined the building we realized more was needed to properly renovate the venue: cosmetically, structurally, ADA and code compliance. While there is no rush, the job should be completed by the end of 2019.

HEY SUSAN! Google Maps doesn’t provide efficient transit directions for Roosevelt Island when F train service is disrupted. It seems like Google doesn’t recognize the Tram or any trains that run on the F line (for example, the R train stopped in both directions on the F line this weekend when the F did not). 
There are over 11,000 residents of Roosevelt Island, we should be able to know how to get home from Manhattan or Queens during the weekend. Are you working with Google and MTA to fix this issue?

SUSAN: The MTA posts notices about the transportation alternatives for weekend travel to and from Roosevelt Island at the subway station and via their website at http://alert.mta.info/. We have no jurisdiction as to what they choose to do with Google. RIOC is now working with Google Transit to add Roosevelt Island Tram information of which we do have jurisdiction. Stay tuned for our announcement of its debut. Also have you tried using other transportation apps like Moovit? They seem to have accurate and useful up-to-date updates on all public transit outlets.

HEY SUSAN! Any projected completion date for the renovation of the two wooden footbridges near the lighthouse at the northern tip of the island? I haven't seen much progress. We love walking in Lighthouse Park. We sorely miss walking around the Lighthouse itself, which is inaccessible now and has been so for several months. What's up?

SUSAN: RIOC is working with Cameron Engineering for the renovation design drawing package of the two-foot bridges. These bridges have been fixed several times previously only to be washed out again by flooding. We hope to incorporate some long term structural and landscape solutions this time to prevent this from happening in the future. Currently, the project is in the design and permitting phase. The construction of the project is expected to finish by late spring of 2019.

HEY SUSAN! Has RIOC ever investigated the possibility of reinstating access for Roosevelt Island residents to the Queensboro bridge?  I recently came across some old news articles and found that RIRA made a presentation to Community Board 8 back in 2007 to try and convince them that – for multiple reasons, including safety, the growing Island population and strain on public transit and general connectivity – it was important to reinstate pedestrian access to the Queensboro bridge from Roosevelt Island. 

See http://uppergreenside.org/blog/2007/04/11/roosevelt-island-queensboro-bridge-access/.  CB8 unanimously approved RIRA’s proposal for conducting a feasibility study to physically connect Roosevelt Island to the Queensboro Bridge pedestrian and bike path, but the trail seems to end there.  A few online articles reflect that DOT did not seem to take the request seriously.

I understand that the bridge is under the City’s control.  That said: Would RIOC support residents in a push to raise this issue again at Community Board 8 and/or with the Department of Transport? 

The importance and utility of creating this link has only grown since 2007.  The Island population continues to grow.  Two new Riverwalk buildings are planned right next to the bridge.  We now have Cornell Tech.  A hotel is being constructed, and an Executive Education Center.  Amazon will be building its new HQ2 directly south of the bridge in Long Island City.  The ferry and Tram are great, but a walking link to Manhattan and LIC would be transformative for the Island (and frankly, they seem like a good idea from a safety/evacuation plan point of view). 

There are so many people and entities on the Island (including RIOC) that would benefit from this increased connectivity.  What can we as Roosevelt Island residents do to push this issue?  If RIRA were to raise this again, could it count on RIOC’s support?  Would RIOC be willing to play a role in bringing together representatives from Hudson Related and Cornell Tech to urge them to support this proposal? 

SUSAN: Yes, having such an elevator or stair connection to the 59th Street Bridge does seem to be a good idea in theory, but several feasibility studies have shown we don’t have the land area on the Island to build it. We would suggest that you contact City Council Member Ben Kallos’ office directly to inquire more about other current plans being discussed.

SUSAN: Thanks to you all for submitting your questions to HEY SUSAN! We look forward to more in the coming months. Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2019!

Have a question for HEY SUSAN!? Submit it to Ms. Rosenthal at information@rioc.ny.gov.

NYC First Roosevelt Island STEM Center Makers Lab At Cornell Tech Tata Innvovation Center - NYC High School Students Receive Tools And Assistance To Become Future Engineers & Scientists, Maybe Next Elon Musk In Training

On Sunday January 6, the NYC First STEM Center hosted a group of NYC High School students at its Roosevelt Island Makers Lab in the Cornell Tech Tata Innovation Center.


According to NYC First:
NYC FIRST STEM Centers bring hands-on, sustained STEM education and FIRST robotics programs to schools and communities that do not typically get access to the advanced equipment and expert teaching resources that they need and deserve.

We have two STEM Centers -- one at the new Cornell Tech campus on Roosevelt Island, and the other in partnership with New York Public Library at the Washington Heights Branch. Both STEM Centers offer a range of credit-bearing and less formal courses, programs, and workshops that integrate a range of disciplines, including computer science, digital and non-digital fabrication, mechanical engineering, electronics and sensors.

Our STEM Centers are outfitted with a range of digital and non-digital fabrication equipment and tools, including 3D printers, laser cutters, CNC routers, miter saws, drill presses, metals saws, and a host of other tools....
The NYC First Roosevelt Island STEM Center opened a temporary space in January 2018 on Main Street before moving into it permanent home at the Cornell Tech Tata Innovation Center several months ago.
We are located at the beautiful Cornell Tech campus, located at 11 E. Loop Rd, New York, NY 10044, on Roosevelt Island.

This site is a resource to get involved with programs being held at the NYC FIRST STEM Center @ Cornell Tech.

You will be able to:

Sign up for time on our Laser Cutter (coming soon)

Sign up for open hours if you have a FIRST Tech Challenge Team

We will very shortly offer workshops for the community, so please check back soon....

... We are seeking Mentors to offer guidance to our students during open hours at the Roosevelt Island location. We are specifically looking volunteers who can offer 1-3 hours of their time each week and are regularly available one day a week (Tuesday - Friday) between 4pm and 7pm.

Responsibilities would include helping to monitor the space while offering your skills to help students with personal projects.
Roosevelt Island resident Peter Blumen


 is a NYC First Instructor/Mentor.


Yesterday, Mr Blumen described Sunday's workshop and the assistance provided by NYC First for students building robots for upcoming competition.



Mr. Blumen is beginning a project to build software that will help launch a NASA satellite into space. If you're interested in working on the project, send him an email SatelliteFirstTeam@gmail.com

Also, University Heights High School English teacher Paul Woods described bringing the language of technology into the classroom. The First NYC Roosevelt Island Stem Center is a huge benefit to his students - a game changer, said Mr. Woods.



Meet these three very impressive students from Queens Metropolitan High School



who describe the tools and equipment they learned to use yesterday at First NYC Makers lab including 3D and laser printing for upcoming Rover Ruckus


space design Robotics competition.

Another highly impressive High School student at Roosevelt Island's First NYC STEM Center is senior Ronald Borda. Ronald wants to transition transportation from gas power vehicles to electric power. He describes building a motorized electric scooter that travels up to 25 mph and is currently working on a motorized electric bike.



Could be a future Elon Musk learning at the Roosevelt Island NYC First STEM Center.
