Like many others, we are now looking elsewhere to live (not Florida, been there, done that, too hot for me).

He should have told them he was there for a "peaceful protest." <_<
 

LI Teen Arrested For Attempting To Attend In-Person Classes After Suspension
 

 A Long Island teen who was suspended for showing up for class on a day when he was meant to be doing remote learning has now been arrested.
 

William Floyd High School senior Maverick Stow, 17, showed up for class on Tuesday morning – a day when he was meant to stay home to learn remotely – and was given a five-day suspension.
 

On Wednesday, Stow returned to school and after school officials say he continued to display “insubordinate behavior,” cops were called, and he was removed from campus and issued a trespassing ticket.
 

</snip>
 

On Thursday, the 17-year-old continued his protest by showing up for class again – but this time, he was arrested and taken to the 7th Precinct.

Where are the counselors to interface with this troubled teen?  

 

And, blame the parent for naming him Maverick. :pirate:

My two escape plans are either Greenville SC or Bozeman MT if the unthinkable happens and FL goes completely crazy. Both cities were great to work in and the people were awesome.

City indoor dining will start with restrictions on September 30. Here is an email I received from the City:

 

Dear small business partner,  
 
With COVID-19 positivity rates hovering at or below 1% for over a month, we are excited to announce that restaurants will be able to offer limited indoor dining beginning on September 30th! This is a huge win for our small business community, and we are so grateful to all New Yorkers for the hard work that went into keeping COVID-19 rates so low.

Early Guidance for Indoor Dining 
 
Restaurants will be allowed to reopen for indoor dining beginning on September 30th.
 
They will be subject to rigorous inspection protocols and strict occupancy limits. Some requirements for restaurants include: 
  • Serve customers at a maximum of 25% capacity 
  • Conduct temperature checks at every front door 
  • Collect Test & Trace data from at least one customer at each table 
  • Close bar tops for seating 
  • Offer COVID-19 protections like PPE for employees 
  • Space tables six feet apart 
 
If New York City hits 2% in COVID-19 positivity rates, the City will immediately reassess.
 
Once indoor dining begins, the public will be able to call 833-208-4160 to make a report or text VIOLATION to 855-904-5036.  
 
Please continue to watch for emails from us as more information will be shared in the coming weeks leading up to September 30th.  

Does bullet point 3 translate to:

 

help us spy on at least one person per table?

I was sure this nonsense was going to be over November 4th.  Guess not. :cry:

 

 

I actually agree with this- large gathering where people are pressed next to each other should not be promoted.

Stopped by a friend's apartment this week to lift his spirits.  He lives between Penn Station & Port Authority.   It's truly a return to the 80's.   The streets don't feel safe at all and his building hired private security to guard the block.  There was virtually no police presence in the area, when in the past 20+ years they were everpresent in this neighborhood.   Good luck to the tourists if they ever come back to midtown.

Amazing how visible the decent into chaos is now.  I wonder how long it’ll take until thugs commit a crime heinous enough to get people to start demanding accountability again.
