Cirque du Soleil Coming to BaclaysBy Raanan GebererBrooklyn Daily Eagle

The Nets, Barbra Strei-sand, Jay-Z, world-class rockacts like the Who and theRolling Stones — what couldbe next for Barclays Arena?

Well, from July 24 to 28,the world-famous Cirque duSoleil will come to Barclayswith its new show, “Quidam.”

Cirque du Soleil (meaning“Circus of the Sun”) began in1984 in Quebec as a troupe of20 street performers. It nowhas more than 1,300 perform-ing artists.

In New York, Cirque duSoleil became famous in1998, when it performed inBattery Park City.

However, says Luc Ouel-lette, artistic director for“Quidam,” although thetroupe has performed manytimes in the city over theyears, this will be its first ap-pearance in Brooklyn.

Ouellette explains howCirque du Soleil differs from atypical American circus. “Ourshows,” he says, “link one actto another, creating a storyline. The atmosphere flowsfrom one act to another. Wemake transitions between acts,not blackouts.”

In addition, Cirque duSoleil has one performance ata time, unlike the traditional“three-ring circus” wherethree acts are performing si-

multaneously. “A stage is builtfor each performance — it’sreally like a [theater] set,”says Ouellete.

Finally, Cirque du Soleildoes not include animal acts.

“Quidam,” which the cir-cus has been performing since2010, means “anonymous” inLatin. “The show is about thesoul of the individual,” Ouel-lette says. “Each person has adifferent costume. It’s a cele-bration of individuality.”

Public Advocate Bill de Bla-sio and City Councilman SteveLevin (D-Brooklyn Heights)were among more than a dozendemonstrators arrested in Mid-town Manhattan on Wednesdayduring a protest against the clo-sure of Long Island CollegeHospital (LICH) in Cobble Hill.

The protesters, chanting“Hell no, we won’t go!” werearrested and cuffed outside thedoors of the State University ofNew York’s (SUNY) College ofOptometry.

Financially troubled SUNYDownstate Medical Center inEast Flatbush, which is alsounder the authority of the StateUniversity of New York, hasbegun shutting down LICH de-partments and diverting ambu-lances from the ER in defianceof a Brooklyn Supreme Courtcourt order.

“We are going to lose a vitalcommunity hospital in a matterof weeks unless somethingchanges,” de Blasio said. “Thegovernor must act to saveLICH, and SUNY Downstatemust stop its end run around ajudge’s direct order and committo keeping this hospital up andrunning. This is a moment forall New Yorkers to stand up andfight, and I’m proud to do mypart.”

“Today, nurses, doctors,community members, and elect-ed officials stand togetheragainst the blatant attempt bySUNY Downstate to shut downLong Island College Hospital,”said Levin. “Their actions fly inthe face of the law and are liter-ally risking the lives of Brook-lyn residents. By getting arrest-ed, we are sending a messagethat we will not tolerateSUNY’s disturbing disregard of

The city’s arbitrary systemof restaurant health inspec-tions is hard for eatery ownersto swallow, but a series of re-forms approved by the CityCouncil should make it a loteasier to stomach, Council-man David Greenfield pre-dicted.

Greenfield (D-BoroughPark-Bensonhurst-Midwood)said he’s satisfied that the leg-islative package passed Mon-day by the council will makethe system fairer for restaurant

owners who have complainedbitterly about fines theydeemed unfair and cripplingto their businesses.

“We can protect publichealth without harming busi-nesses, and this legislationwill do just that,” Greenfieldsaid at a press conference atJerry’s Café in lower Manhat-tan alongside Council SpeakerChristine Quinn on July 8.

The now-famous lettergrading system is staying, butthe council is pushing a hostof changes in the way restau-rants are inspected by the

city’s Department of Health.Among the proposed re-

forms are:• An across-the-board re-

duction of fines for violations.• A requirement that in-

spectors distribute informa-tional pamphlets to eateryowners prior to the first in-spection visit. The pamphletwill include guidelines on ex-actly what inspectors will belooking for.

• The establishment of anombudsman’s office to dealwith restaurant owners who

Shortly after his convictionfor overseeing a quarter-centu-ry’s worth of murder and othercrimes as head of the Bonannoorganized crime family, JosephMassino did the unthinkable foran old-school mobster: He toldprosecutors he was ready tobreak the Mafia’s code of si-lence.

An overweight, red-facedMassino shuffled into a Brook-lyn courtroom Wednesday tohear prosecutors praise his workas the highest-ranking memberof the city’s five Italian organizedcrime families to ever become agovernment cooperator. At theend of a half-hour hearing, ajudge gave him his reward: a re-duction of a life sentence to timeserved, about 10 ½ years.

Massino, 70, was ordered tospend another two months be-hind bars before being releasedunder FBI supervision for therest of his life. His only wordsWednesday were an apology ofsorts.

“I pray every night for all ofthe people I hurt, especially thevictims’ families,” he said.

It was an extraordinary re-prieve for the former boss of acrime family known for its in-tense insularity and for inspiringthe film “Donnie Brasco.”

His decision to betray theBonannos sent the message that“omerta is dead and the Mafia ison the run,” Massino’s attorney,Edward McDonald said incourt. He also described his

client as “a very sick and tiredold man” who was incapable ofdoing more harm.

In court papers urging U.S.District Judge Nicholas Garau-fis to resentence Massino, pros-ecutors credited him with pro-viding information that wasused in 10 prosecutions of mobfigures and that led investigatorsto vacant lot where the remainsof two men killed in 1981.

“The court is under no illu-sions about the motives for Mr.Massino’s cooperation,” Garau-fis said before withdrawing thelife term. “In helping the gov-ernment, has also has helpedhimself, and his cooperation inno way justifies his life ofcrime. Nevertheless, his prose-cution has brought great riskupon himself and his family andgreat benefits to the govern-ment’s efforts to dismantle or-ganized crime.”

Massino was convicted at a

have complaints about the in-spection process or the gradesthey received.

• Relief from violations re-lating to the physical layout orstructure of a restaurant.

“With this package, we’retaking steps to ensure that therestaurant inspection processis fair. The bills improve thelot of struggling restaurantowners while preserving asystem that is valuable to —and more importantly protectsthe safety of — New York-ers,” Quinn said.

“The restaurant industry,with its foundation of small busi-nesses, is the lifeblood of NewYork City, and our legislation in-cludes important measures sothat restaurants can continue tothrive without jeopardizing pub-lic health,” Quinn added.

Greenfield said he wasparticularly pleased with thereforms because he believesthey are a direct result of com-plaints he and his colleagueshave received from restaurantowners. One restaurant ownerin Greenfield’s district toldhim he was hit with a fine forhaving a wet floor after he hadjust washed the floor. Anothereatery owner was reportedly

issued a fine for food that wastoo hot even though it justcame out of the oven.

Greenfield charged thatunder the current system,“food safety is no longer thefocus” of the inspection andthe emphasis has shifted tocollecting revenue for the city.As previously reported in theBrooklyn Daily Eagle, Dr.Thomas Farley, the city’shealth commissioner, toldcouncil members at a hearingthat the city expects to collectan estimated $40 million inrestaurant fines this year.

“The complaints I havepersonally heard from restau-rant owners in my districtmade it clear that the currentinspection system requires aserious overhaul in order torestore fairness for all par-ties,” Greenfield said.

It remains to be seen ifrestaurant owners think thechanges will go far enough.Lee Moudatsos, manager ofMike’s Hinsch’s Greek-Amer-ican Diner on Fifth Avenue inBay Ridge, said he’s hopefulthe new system will work.“Hopefully, it will be better,”he said. Mike’s received an“A” grade when it was in-spected by the Department ofHealth in mid-June.

While he’s happy with the“A” Mike’s received, Moudat-sos said the inspection systemneeds a serious overhaul. “Itbecame more like a businessfor the city, collecting thefines. The fines are too much.The city makes it hard forrestaurant owners to stay inbusiness,” he told the Eagle.

One problem is that the in-spectors are inconsistent, hecharged. “One inspector will tellyou one thing, and then a newinspector who comes the nexttime will tell you something to-tally the opposite. And you wentcrazy trying to put in what thefirst inspector said,” he said.

Restaurant owners sweatout each inspection, accordingto Moudatsos, who said thedifference between an “A”and a “B” can affect aneatery’s bottom line.

Tranquility In BrooklynBROOKLYN — On July 11, 1978, the

Albemarle-Kenmore Terraces, located inBrooklyn between E. 21st Street and FlatbushAvenue near Church Avenue, were declared anhistoric district. The two dead-end streets thatmake up this historic district provide one of themost dramatic neighborhood contrasts to befound in Brooklyn.

This tranquil oasis of small brick houses seton landscaped cul-de-sacs is located only a fewyards from the noise and bustle of commercialFlatbush Avenue, yet is totally separate from it.Planning for this small complex began in 1916when developer Mabel Bull and the Brooklynreal estate firm of Midwood Associates hiredlocal architects Slee & Bryson to design a com-munity of private houses on the former Lottfamily farm.

The earliest of the two streets in the historicdistrict is Albemarle Terrace, built in 1916-17.It consists of two rows of red brick houses de-signed to resemble the row houses of colonialand federal New York. Features such as the useof brick laid in Flemish bond, multi-panedwindows, stone lintels, sloping roofs withdormer windows, and doors with leaded fan-lights, transoms, and sidelights give the shortstreet the desired colonial aspect. The facingrows are carefully planned with a rhythm oftwo-and-one-half and three-story houses sub-tly varied in detail. These homes sit on raised

terraces set back from the street with smallsloping lawns. The planting of trees in the gar-dens, rather than at the curb line, brightens thespaciousness of the complex by making thestreet look wider.

Albemarle Terrace’s companion, KenmoreTerrace, is of special interest because it is one ofBrooklyn’s earliest examples of architectural de-sign inspired by the automobile. The KenmoreTerrace houses line the south side of this shortstreet, facing the parsonage and landscapedgrounds of the Flatbush Reformed DutchChurch. Between 1900 and 1920, the number ofautomobiles in America rose from a mere eightthousand to over eight million. This had a pro-found affect on all aspects of life, including do-mestic architecture. The houses of Kenmore Ter-race date from 1918-19 and are among the firsturban row houses to incorporate garages intotheir design. These picturesque brick homes areasymmetrically massed and display sloping roofsand broad gables. The most prominent feature ofeach house, however, is the arched garage withpaired wooden doors facing the street.

The neighborhood that surrounds the Albe-marle-Kenmore Terrace Historic District haschanged dramatically since these houses wereinitially built, but the historic district retains thepeaceful ambience that has made it one ofBrooklyn’s most delightful residential enclavesfor over three quarters of a century.

BROOKLYN — On July 11, 1897,there was a wild scene at St. Paul’s CatholicChurch in Brooklyn, caused by a cat mixingin with a procession of 150 children. FatherHill, with two other priests and 15 altarboys, was about to pronounce the benedic-tion, with the children kneeling in the aisle,when a big cat jumped from behind thealtar.

Some of the boys made a grab for the an-imal as it jumped over the altar rail andcaught its claws in the veil of Celia Ledger,16, who screamed and almost fainted.

All the girls wore veils and carried light-ed candles, so a stampede with awful conse-quences seemed inevitable when a Colliedog began to chase the cat, intensifying theconfusion.

The dog and cat were finally captured,and the congregation was dismissed.

Those Blessed Animals

BEVERLY HILLS, CA — On July 11, 1937,five songs into the score for the film The GoldwynFollies, 38-year-old George Gershwin succumbedto a brain tumor. His passing was mourned mighti-ly by Samuel Goldwyn, who’d taken him off thepayroll only the month before for not showing up

at the studio because of a mi-graine. Of the last melodiesGershwin composed, one —“Just Another Rhumba” —was not used, while another —“Love Walked In” — wasoverused, and the best, his last,was used too sparingly: “[Our]Love is Here to Stay.” Thelyric Gershwin’s brother, Ira,gave the latter was slightly

ironic since George was on the emotional mendfrom an affair with Charles Chaplin’s third wife,screen star Paulette Goddard.

Brooklynite Releases Prohibition-Era Novel

Author to Read in Cobble Hill From Prometheus Books

Jersey Leo is the quintessential outsider—an albino of mixed race. The protagonist in Brooklynite John Florio’s latest novel “Sugar Pop Moon” (Prometheus Books), Jersey makes a living as the bartender at a mob-run speakeasy in Prohibition-era Hell’s Kitchen. Being nei-ther black nor white, he has no group to call his own. His own moth-er abandoned him as a baby. And his father—a former boxing champ with his own secrets—disapproves of Jersey’s work at a dive owned by one of New York’s most notorious gangsters.

So when he inadvertently purchases counterfeit moonshine (“sugar pop moon”) with his boss’s money—a potentially fatal mis-take—he must go undercover to track down the bootlegger who took him in. The clues lead to Philadelphia, where he runs into a cleav-er-swinging madman out for his femurs and a cold-blooded gangster holed up on a Christmas-tree farm. Now with a price on his head in two cities, Jersey seeks help from the only man he can trust, his fa-ther. As the two delve into the origins of the mysterious sugar pop moon, stunning secrets about Jersey’s past come to light.

Cumbo Files Over 10,000 Signatures to Run for Council

By Paula KatinasBrooklyn Daily Eagle

Laurie Cumbo, a candidate for the Democratic nomination to run for the City Council seat in Fort Greene, has filed more than 20 times the required number of peti-tion signatures with the New York City Board of Elections, according to her campaign.

Cumbo, who filed her signa-tures on July 9, two days before the July 11 deadline, presented more than 10,000 signatures. Under New York City election law, the required number of signatures a candidate must file to get his or her name on the ballot for a primary is 450.

“I am humbled by the outpour-ing of support for my candidacy and thankful for those who signed my petition,” Cumbo said, calling her campaign a grassroots effort. “The strength of this grassroots op-eration will be instrumental to the success of my campaign. The peo-ple of the 35th District have shown that they believe in my vision, and know that I will be a tireless advo-cate for all residents when I’m in the City Council,” she said.

Cumbo is one of several candi-dates running in the Sept. 10 prima-ry, hoping to succeed Letitia James (D-Fort Greene-Clinton Hill-parts of Bedford Stuyvesant), the popu-lar councilwoman representing the 35th Council District. James is run-ning for public advocate.

Marilyn Mosley, president of Progressive Association for Politi-cal Action, was among the political leaders who helped Cumbo gath-er the thousands of signatures. “It was an honor to help her get an in-credible 10,000 signatures, which

demonstrate her robust backing and substantive message,” Mosley said. “We are excited by her recent success and look forward to con-tinuing the groundwork and mobi-lizing our members for the remain-der of the campaign,” she said.

Cumbo has been endorsed by several unions, including the UFT, 1199 SEIU, Doctors Council SEIU, the Hotel and Motel Trades Council, the TWU, and the Steamfitters Lo-cal Union 638. The Working Fami-lies Party and Lambda Independent Democrats of Brooklyn are also sup-porting her council run.

Cumbo, a former graduate pro-fessor in the School of Art & De-sign at Pratt Institute, also helped

establish Brooklyn’s first Museum of Contemporary African Diaspo-ran Arts. She incorporated MoCA-DA as a 501c3 non-profit institution with support from community leaders in Bedford Stuyvesant and other neighborhoods. She has also worked at the Brooklyn Children’s Museum, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, WNET Channel 13, and the Met-ropolitan Museum of Art.

The candidates for the coun-cil seat include: Democratic District Leader Jesse Hamilton; former dis-trict leader Ola Alabi; Ede Fox, the former chief of staff for Councilman Jumaane Williams (D-Flatbush); and Jelani Mashariki, the founder of Black Veterans for Social Justice.

ER Doctor Tells Us How to Beat the HeatBy Paula KatinasBrooklyn Daily Eagle

Drink more water! Stop run-ning and slow down! How many of us have heard our mothers yell those instructions to us during the dog days of our youthful summers when temperatures soared above the 90 degree mark and the blazing sun beat down on us all day?

Well, it seems that our moms were right. Medical experts say that is the best way to beat the heat.

Dr. John Marshall, chairman of emergency medicine at Maimon-ides Medical Center, 4802 10th Ave. in Borough Park, said that the best way to deal with the oppressive summer heat is to take the proper precautions.

“The body has a way of keep-ing itself cool by letting heat es-cape through the skin, or perspir-ing,” Marshall said. “If the body does not cool properly or does not cool enough, the person may suffer a heat-related illness,” he warned.

Summertime activity should be balanced with measures to assist the body’s natural cooling mecha-nisms, according to Marshall.

His advice? Drink more fluids. And don’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink. Also, avoid liquids that contain caffeine, alcohol, or large amounts of sugar as these actually cause you to lose more body fluid. That can lead to dehydration, Mar-shall said.

But you should also stay away from very cold drinks because they can cause stomach cramps, he ad-vised.

Marshall said that if at all pos-sible, stay indoors in an air condi-tioned room on days when the tem-perature and humidity are at high levels. Electric fans may provide some comfort, but when the tem-perature is in the 90s or above, fans will not prevent heat-related illness, he said.

If your home does not have air-conditioning, go to a nearby shopping mall, public library, mov-ie theatre, or any other venue that’s

cooler. Even a few hours spent in air-conditioning can help your body stay cooler when you go back into the heat, Marshall said. You can also call 311 to find out if there are any cooling centers in your community.

If it’s not possible to stay in-side and you must be outside, then wear lightweight, light-colored and loose-fitting clothing, and a wide-brimmed hat to deflect the sun’s harmful rays. If you can, limit your outdoor activity to morning and evening hours. Use a sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 15. Sun-screen will prevent sunburn, which can limit the skin’s ability to cool it-self, the doctor said.

While you’re outside, cut back on daily exercise. If you feel you have to exercise, remember to rehy-drate and drink two to four glasses of cool fluids each hour.

Avoid hot foods and heavy meals. They add heat to the body. Marshal suggested eating frozen treats.

It’s easy for people overlook that they are at risk for heat-illness, according to Marshall, who said heat acts as an insidious killer. Any-one can be susceptible to a heat-ill-ness, which can become serious or even deadly if left untreated. Se-niors, people with chronic physi-cal health conditions or psychiatric disease, and those taking medica-tions that can impair thermoregula-tion are susceptible to heat illness-es, he said.

Dr. John Marshall has tips on how to keep cool in the heat.

SportsBrett’s in Business with Isles

Barclays CEO Yormark To Help Run Brooklyn-Bound FranchiseBy John Torenli,

Sports EditorBrooklyn Daily Eagle

Take that little brother!Brett Yormark, the older twin

brother — by a few fleeting seconds — of Florida Panthers President Mi-chael Yormark, now has an NHL team of his own to run.

Yormark, the CEO of Barclays Center and the Brooklyn Nets, was officially named the strategic direc-tor of business operations for the New York Islanders on Wednesday as the franchise prepares to land in Downtown Brooklyn for the 2015-16 season, if not sooner.

According to a release from Brooklyn Arena, LLC., the parent company of the Barclays Center, Yormark and his personnel team will work with the Islanders’ busi-ness operations department to of-fer strategic direction for Islanders tickets and suites sales, sponsorship sales, marketing, and business com-munications during the team’s final two seasons on Long Island and fol-lowing its move to Brooklyn.

Leading up to the transition, Barclays Center has been collabo-rating with the Islanders on their business plans for the past several months.

This news comes just as the Nas-sau Coliseum announced Wednes-day that Forest City Ratner Compa-nies and Madison Square Garden Company were the two finalists for a multimillion-dollar overhaul and renovation of the Islanders’ cur-rent home, the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, N.Y.

Nassau County Executive Ed-ward Mangano was originally slat-ed to make a final decision on the bid by this coming Monday, but has since pushed back that deadline to mid-August.

The Islanders, who are coming off their first playoff season since 2007 and are owned by Brook-lyn Tech alum Charles Wang, an-nounced earlier this year that they are locked into a 25-year, iron-clad agreement to join the Nets at Bar-clays beginning in 2015.

Yormark, who has mastermind-

ed the Nets’ business and market-ing operations since Ratner as-sumed ownership of the franchise a decade ago before dealing his ma-jority share to Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov, has already fi-nalized a deal that will have the Is-landers play an exhibition game at Barclays in September.

With Yormark running the busi-ness side, the Islanders’ hockey op-erations will remain under the lead-ership of President and General Manager Garth Snow.

“We are excited to collaborate our business efforts with Barclays Center,” Wang said. “Brett Yormark and his staff have established a sound business model in Brooklyn. With the eventual move to Barclays Center, it is imperative that we be-gin this process to ensure the busi-ness side of the organization is ful-ly prepared when we call Barclays Center home. By combining our tal-ented staff with the proven prac-tices and management at Barclays Center, this will energize our fan base and convince new fans that

the future is extremely bright for the New York Islanders.”

“The Islanders are coming off a terrific season and we are excited to build on their success,” added Yor-mark. “Our business team at Barclays Center has met with every employ-ee in the Islanders’ business opera-tions and we look forward to work-ing with them in preparation for the team’s move to Brooklyn. We plan to utilize many of the same strategies we have employed at Barclays Cen-ter in growing the Islanders fan base and building their brand. I want to thank Charles Wang for having the confidence in us to make the busi-ness side of the Islanders the most successful in the NHL.”

Coming off of their dramatic

first-round playoff series with Pitts-burgh, the Islanders have seen a tre-mendous increase in new season ticket sales and renewals, as well as new sponsorship alliances.

The Islanders have experienced a surge of 2,200 new season tickets, as well as a robust 86 percent sea-son ticket renewal rate, an uptick of 11 percent from last season, for the upcoming campaign.

Last October, when Barclays an-nounced its plans to host the Is-landers, Yormark intimated that he had informed his brother that he was changing allegiances.

“I told him, I’m all Islanders now,” he said.

Sounds like it’s time for anoth-er phone call.

The Heat is on BrooklynLast-place Cyclones Trying To Climb Out of Early-Season Funk

By John Torenli, Sports Editor

Brooklyn Daily Eagle

It had to happen sometime.After playing a perfect second

base for the first three weeks of his professional career, LJ Mazzilli committed a pair of fielding errors Tuesday afternoon as the Brook-lyn Cyclones saw their season-high winning streak snapped at three games with a 5-2 loss to Lowell be-fore 5,886 fans at Coney Island’s newly renovated MCU Park.

Mazzilli, the son of former Mets great and current Yankees front-of-fice man Lee Mazzilli, had gone error-free in his first 20 games with the Baby Bums. He booted a fourth-inning grounder during Tuesday’s defeat, but quickly re-bounded to make a pair of 4-3 put-outs to help the Cyclones get off the

field without allowing a run.Things wouldn’t go as smoothly

in the top of the ninth as Brooklyn trailed 4-2 before the Mets’ fourth-round pick in June’s MLB Draft was unable to convert an inning-ending force play at second, allowing Mi-guel Rodriguez to score the game’s final run.

Batting .256 with two doubles, five RBIs and six runs scored thus far this summer, Mazzilli took an 0-for-4 collar Tuesday as the Cy-clones squandered an opportunity to move out of the McNamara Di-vision cellar, where they’ve been mired for the past two weeks.

The 22-year-old prospect has been the glue of the Brooklyn in-field, and a few fielding gaffes are to be expected from any first-year pro.

Despite the defeat, the Cyclones have stabilized since a season-high

four-game skid to begin the month, going 4-3 in their last seven games to climb back to 9-13, leaving them just 3 1/2 games back of first-place Hudson Valley entering their six-game trip through Auburn and Con-necticut.

Brooklyn averted a three-game sweep in Aberdeen with Saturday’s 5-3 win before returning to Surf Ave-nue to pick up a pair of wins against the Spinners.

On Sunday, Venezuelan right-hander Miller Diaz struck out eight over five two-hit innings as Brook-lyn used four pitchers to blank Low-ell, 3-0.

Mazzilli went 1-for-3 with a run scored and an RBI in the win, and has picked things up at the plate with a .282 average over his last 10 games, including a pair of three-hit efforts during that stretch.

Islanders’ first-round draft pick Ryan Pulock hopes to be with the team by the time it lands in Downtown Brooklyn in 2015.

Sunshine Connections: Brooklyn Native Asi Cymbal Transforming Fort Lauderdale Waterfront; Williamsburg is Inspiration

By Palmer HastyBrooklyn Daily Eagle

“Brooklyn is a gateway of culture; the streets of Brooklyn can prepare you for anything.”

—Miami Developer Asi Cymbal on growing up in Brooklyn

Asi Cymbal’s visionary develop-ment project along the Downtown Fort Lauderdale waterfront, called “Marina Lofts”, was inspired, he said, by the Williamsburg neighbor-hood in Brooklyn, currently one of the trendiest locations in the coun-try and described in the media as “the new Brooklyn.”

In a recent interview with the Brooklyn Daily Eagle from his office in Miami, Cymbal said, “Williams-burg was inspirational because of its vibrant culture and talent…it has the coolest retail shops and restau-rants. And I still think Blue Bottle has the best coffee in New York.”

Cymbal knows Brooklyn well. His family immigrated to Brooklyn from Israel when he was just 3 years old, and until his teens, he lived in Trump Village, the affordable housing proj-ect built by Donald Trump’s father on Ocean Parkway in Coney Island.

Sometime after they moved to another rental apartment on Ocean Parkway and Avenue L, the building went co-op. His mother worked as a bookkeeper in a tie factory, and scraped up enough money with a bank loan and help from friends to buy the apartment. She sold the apartment about a year later for more money than she could make in a year as a bookkeeper.

Cymbal credits his mother for his decision to become a real estate developer. The entrepreneurial spirit displayed by his mother made a last-ing impression on the young Cymbal.

Cymbal’s mother was also in-strumental in his decision to earn a law degree. He recalled, “My moth-er spoke poor English, she was ac-customed to making deals with a hand shake, but when she had to deal with the legal issues of con-tracts she was always asking me for help. I realized how a thorough un-derstanding of the law could help me as a developer.”

When I asked him more about his childhood and his years at Abra-ham Lincoln High School, he remi-nisced: “I think the streets of Brook-lyn can prepare you for anything. I was a typical teenager then; I spent more time at Coney Island’s Ar-cade House than I did at the high school.” He laughed. “I guess you know what that means. I loved to go there, eat hot dogs and play vid-eo games all day.”

“When I was 16, I often took the D train to Manhattan, I’d hang out in TriBeCa, and return so late I fell asleep on the train. I woke up at the end of the line realizing I had missed my Stillwell Avenue stop.”

Cymbal graduated from Vas-sar in 1991 and UCLA Law School in 1996. During law school he met one of his mentors, Santa Moni-ca developer and mixed-use pio-neer Howard Jacobs. He took a job with Jacobs in 1997 overseeing con-struction sites, learning from Jacobs something about every aspect of the development process.

Cymbal considers himself a “dreamer.” Recalling his time in Los Angeles, Cymbal said, “I wanted to build skyscrapers. I wanted to move back to New York because that’s the best place to build skyscrapers.”

He found a job there in 2002 with developer Shaya Boymelgreen. “I ended up working in Downtown Brooklyn next to Barclays Arena.” Boymelgreen hired Cymbal as the company VP, working as both proj-ect manager and general counsel. He worked for Boymelgreen for two years as the lead developer and built the small outfit into a compa-ny with 100 employees. Cymbal be-came more determined than ever to make his mark as a developer with his own company.

Even though he worked on sig-nificant conversion projects for Boymelgreen in SoHo, TriBeCa and

the Financial District, all togeth-er worth over $700 million, he fig-ured out that New York was simply too expensive to realize his goal. “I needed money and contacts, and I didn’t have any,” he said.

Concluding he could more re-alistically make his mark in South Florida, where development proj-ects of the scope he envisioned would be less expensive than in New York, Cymbal moved to Miami in 2004.

Within three years he had creat-ed Cymbal Development. He made a name for himself and his com-pany with partnerships and proj-ects in the Miami Design District and the Wynwood neighborhood. As the South Florida Business Jour-nal reported in 2012, “Drawing on friends, family and new business re-lationships for support and funds, Cymbal Development has acquired,

developed or constructed more than $150 million in projects in Mi-ami.” One of Cymbal’s mixed-use retail and condominium proper-ties in Miami’s Design District sold for more than a 500% gain just 24 months after completion.

Cymbal likes to transform ur-ban landscapes. “I identify with ur-ban,” he explained.

“I grew up in New York and spent most of my life there. I also spent considerable time in Los An-geles, Tel Aviv, and now Miami. There is an intellectual and sophis-ticated dynamic and a curiosity to these great cities – a nuance that I am in tune with.”

In what the local press has called his boldest move yet, Cymbal is developing a six-acre waterfront area along the New River in Down-town Fort Lauderdale called Mari-na Lofts.

True to his principles, when Cymbal says “I have no interest in building an uninspiring box and squeezing money out of it...I like to build beautiful buildings and com-munities, to maximize a project’s value on all levels,” he means it.

He hired world renowned Dan-ish architect Bjarke–Ingels to design Marina Lofts (more details on the project can be viewed at www.big.dk/#projects-cym). Ingels’ beautiful-ly futuristic and stunningly imagina-tive design will help Cymbal Devel-opment leave an indelible imprint on the Downtown Fort Lauderdale waterfront. Marina Lofts is a testa-ment to Cymbal’s innate knack for connecting upscale commercial den-sity with private living and public space on a grand scale.

Cymbal has said, “Good design enhances lives and inspires com-munities, and I believe a real estate developer has a moral obligation to leave an environment better than he found it.”

One of Marina Lofts’ high-rise buildings is cleverly designed to ap-pear as if it had cracked and sep-arated, with a walkway through the middle so the public will have through access to Fort Lauderdale’s popular River Walk. Fort Lauder-dale is known as a city that relies on water as much as land for its char-acteristic lifestyle; as Cymbal said of Marina Lofts, “It’s uniquely Fort Lauderdale.”

There have been other develop-ments in the downtown Fort Lau-derdale area along the river in re-cent years, but none with the scope and vision of Marina Lofts. Fort Lauderdale economic development groups believe that Marina Lofts will not only provide economic benefits, but that Marina Lofts will also bring the right touch of aes-thetic enrichment to an area that otherwise might not be able to at-tract young professionals through-out South Florida.

Other developers are also im-pressed. We spoke with prominent Miami developer Tony Cho, CEO of Metro1, who said of Cymbal, “Like me, he’s focused on emerging mar-kets, making city and urban living better.” When I asked Cho what he thought of Marina Lofts, he said, “From the design perspective, it's very beautiful, very cutting edge. Asi thinks big, his work is exciting.”

When the Fort Lauderdale Plan-ning and Zoning Board unanimous-ly approved the project in May of this year, Bob Swindell, President and CEO of Greater Fort Lauderdale Alliance, said “Marina Lofts is a dy-namic project that will invigorate the long-neglected south side of the New River, as well as provide afford-able luxury housing for our grow-ing creative class.”

While as a visionary developer Cymbal will continue to transform buildings and neighborhoods as he has done so far in New York, Miami and now Fort Lauderdale, it was also interesting to learn how his Brooklyn background plays such an influential role in his success wher-ever he works.

As he said during the inter-view; “Brooklyn is great because of all the energy, talent, and cul-ture. Like myself, so many immi-grants have grown up and passed through Brooklyn on their way to the world.”

Marina Lofts in Fort Lauderdale will consist of two high-rise apartment buildings, restaurants and retail shops, a small park, a public marina, and a water-taxi that will take Marina Lofts residents who work in the area to their jobs. Photo courtesy of Cymbal Development.

Other Brooklyns: Young Man Spends His Life Off the Grid

By Leanne SmithAssociated Press

Noah Boyce, who lived most of his life on seclud-ed farmland near Brooklyn, Michigan, didn’t grow up like a lot of kids his age.

There were no video games, no birthday parties, no Christmas presents and no Lit-tle League teams, he told the local Jackson Citizen Patriot.

Until two years ago, Noah, who’s now 19, spent most of his life with his par-ents, David Brian and Mari-lyn Boyce; sisters Miriam and April; and brother Christo-pher on the farm.

Brian Boyce said in a No-vember 2011 Citizen Patriot story that he had repudiated his citizenship in 1996, adding that he believed government should follow God’s law. His mistrust of the government became the way of life for his family, with none of the chil-dren having birth certificates, Social Security numbers or driver’s licenses, Noah said.

Brian Boyce also kept his children out of public schools, telling the Brooklyn Exponent newspaper in 2006 that “school is for fish.”

“It was a different life,” Noah said. “I had no friends my own age to grow up with, and I spent most of my time

with my dad working on small engines and running my dad’s equipment.”

The Boyce family farm once was one of the largest and most prosperous farms in Columbia Township. For many years, Brian Boyce and his family lived with his father in a farmhouse that originally belonged to his grandfather.

Following a family dis-pute, Brian Boyce and his fami-ly moved out of the farmhouse and across the road about a quarter-mile back on 97 acres that was part of the farm.

“We were off the grid,” Noah said. “It was pretty sim-ple and sometimes stressful.”

The family lived in an old Blue Bird RV bus that was hidden from the view of the road by a stand of overgrown brush and trees.

“It was like camping,” Noah said.

The family had solar pan-els and a gas-powered gener-ator for electricity and wood heat, Noah said. They used an outhouse and washed

their clothes in an old wring-er washer that was powered by the generator, added his sister Miriam Boyce, 24, the oldest of the Boyce children.

“It was pretty primitive,” Miriam Boyce said. “It was kind of like living in the ear-ly 1900s. It wasn’t our choice, but we lived with our dad, so we did as he told us.”

None of the Boyce chil-dren were ever sent to pub-lic school, Miriam Boyce said.

“I think the plan was to home-school, but sometimes the best-laid plans don’t hap-pen,” she said.

Miriam Boyce learned to read on her own with the help of her great grand-mother and some old Mc-Guffey Readers, she said.

The children, Miriam Boyce said, were told by Bri-an Boyce not to play outside during traditional school-day hours so they wouldn’t attract the attention of people who might call a truant officer. Noah said he and his siblings wanted to go to public school.

“People tried to get my dad to let us go to school, but my dad said he had his ways,” Noah said. “My dad said we couldn’t go to school for our own protection.”

“It was about animals, gardening and equipment,”

she said. “It was more like trade school than histo-ry or geometry. It was more old-fashioned.”

The children, Miriam said, either walked or rode their bikes into Brooklyn almost dai-ly, mostly to go to the library.

“We did it to get away and have access to the out-side world that we really weren’t a part of,” she said.

Their father did teach the children important life les-sons, Miriam Boyce said.

“Our off-the-grid education made us what we are today with our manners and how to treat other people with kind-ness and respect,” she said.

Brian Boyce told the Cit-izen Patriot in 2011 that he supported his family by re-pairing cars, motorcycles and small engines and by living off the land.

“My dad can fix just about everything,” Noah said. “What people don’t know is that he is caring. He’ll fix a car and give it to someone who needs it.”

Around 2006, Brian

Boyce began bringing his family to Heart O’ The Lakes United Brethren Church in Columbia Township.

“At first, the kids didn’t speak and wouldn’t make eye contact,” said Mary Oyler of Brooklyn, who with her hus-band Jim and other members of the church have helped the Boyce children get the legal documents needed to start traditional lives.

Eventually, the children started coming to the Oylers to take showers, and Mary Oyler said Miriam Boyce reached out to her for help.

Miriam Boyce moved into a Brooklyn apartment. When they turned 18, April and Christopher moved in with her, she said. Miriam Boyce has since passed her GED and is now working two part-time jobs and tak-ing classes at Jackson College.

In 2011, Brian Boyce, his wife and Noah were the only ones still living on the prop-erty when Jackson County foreclosed on the land due to three years of delinquent tax-es and evicted them.

“Nobody should pay to live on their own land,” Boyce said in a November 2011 Citizen Patriot article, adding that he just wanted to lead a quiet and undisturbed life on his land and that he sacrificed it out of principle.

“I’m the opposite from my dad,” Noah said. “He’s not going to change. He’s got his mind set. He dropped out of the system a long time ago and I think it gradually got worse.”

Because the family lived a secluded life and the chil-

dren didn’t show up in a gov-ernment database, it was easy for them to go unnoticed, said Dani Meier, a licensed psycho-therapist who was a Jackson Public Schools social worker for 19 years and now is direc-tor of Jackson College’s Center for Student Success.

“They were not in places, such as a school, where people would have been alerted to their situation,” Meier said. “It’s likely that no one who did see them had any way of knowing they weren’t going to school or being home-schooled.”

“These kids didn’t fall through a crack, they fell into a canyon,” Jim Oyler agreed.

Noah now is getting read-ing, writing and language lessons at Jackson’s Reading Writing Connection.

As a non-profit organi-zation, the organization re-lies on donations and grants to purchase materials and pay instructors. A committee of people not employed by the organization also awards scholarships and Noah’s les-sons, which cost about $2,800 a year, have been covered by

scholarship for one year.“I am so very, very, very

proud of Noah,” Miriam Boyce said. “He’s come a long way and has grown up a lot in these last few years.”

Noah now also works two days a week at YMCA Storer Camps in Napoleon Township.

“I can help some with costs and that makes me feel a lot better,” he said. “With-out a job, I wasn’t paying for anything. I’m a hard worker. I’m caring and I love to learn. I want to keep going to school.”

The United States 2nd CircuitCourt of Appeals has ruled that NewYork’s gun permit fee does not vio-late the United States Constitution.

The New York State Rife andPistol Association, along with aSecond Amendment rights groupand a handful of gun owners, filedthe suit, arguing that NY’s permitlaw violates the Equal ProtectionClause of the Second Amendmentby allowing New York City andNassau County to charge a higherhandgun licensing fee than otherjurisdictions in New York State.

The New York Penal Lawrequires all lawful gun owners toobtain a license for the possession ofa firearm. The relevant statute setsthe license fee between $3 and $10,but also allows the New York Cityand Nassau County to set fees that

falls outside of this range. At pres-ent, it costs a New York City gunowner $340 for a three-year posses-

sion. The plaintiffs argue that it isunfair, and thus unequal, to further astructure allowing New York Cityand Nassau County to charge highergun license fees and that the fee itselfis a burden on an individual’s right toown a gun.

Agun license fee is “permissible”under the Constitution, said U.S.Circuit Judge Jose Cabranes, writingfor the court. New York’s licensingfee is merely a “marginal, incremen-tal or even appreciable restraint” onan individual’s Second Amendmentrights, the court continued, and assuch, the court concluded the “licens-ing fee is constitutional.”

As to the Equal Protection chal-lenge, the court reasoned that thelicensing law permits but does notrequire New York City and NassauCounty to charge a higher licensingfee. Further, the law mandates thatthe licensing fee cannot exceed “a

sum reasonably necessary to coverthe costs of the issuance, inspectionand enforcement.” Each gun permitapplication requires an investigationinto the applicant’s mental healthand criminal history, at a cost that isdefrayed by the licensing fees, thecourt noted. Therefore, the courtconcluded that the fee, which is paidevery three years and used to coveradministrative costs, survives anEqual Protection challenge.

“We are pleased that the Courthas upheld New York City’s resi-dential handgun license fee as anappropriate measure designed todefray administrative costs,” SusanPaulson, senior counsel, AppealsDivision, NYC Law Department andthe City's lead attorney, said in astatement. “The Court properly rec-ognized that the City’s licensingprocess is designed to promote pub-lic safety and prevent gun violence.”

Court Upholds NY Gun Licensing Fee

From NYS Attorney General’s Office New York State Attorney

General Eric T. Schneiderman onWednesday announced the convic-tion of Majestic Transportation, Inc.,an ambulette company located inBrighton Beach, for illegally sub-contracting Medicaid ambuletteservices to a company that neverenrolled in the New York StateMedicaid program, a practice pro-hibited by state law.

Majestic pleaded guilty in KingsCounty Supreme Court to a felonyGrand Larceny charge and agreed torepay the more than $560,000 it hadillegally received.

“The theft of taxpayer funds, and

especially dollars meant to providehealth care to those in need, cannotbe tolerated,” Attorney GeneralSchneiderman said. “We will seekout and prosecute those who defraudthe system as we seek to protectthose in need of care and the NewYork taxpayers.”

The conviction is the result of aninvestigation conducted by theAttorney General’s Medicaid FraudControl Unit in conjunction with theOffice of the Inspector General forU.S. Department of Health andHuman Services and the U.S.Department of Justice as part of theMedicare Strike Force.

The joint investigation showed

that, between December 2008 andJuly 2010, Majestic, located at 164Brighton 11th St., filed hundreds ofclaims with the state Medicaid pro-gram, falsely stating that it transport-ed Medicaid recipients to medicalappointments. In truth, the recipientswere transported by ambulettesowned by I & E Transportation Inc.,another Brooklyn transportationcompany that was never enrolledwith Medicaid as an ambuletteprovider.

Medicaid rules prohibit anenrolled transportation providerfrom subcontracting medical trans-portation services to a company thathas not been formally vetted and

accepted by Medicaid.Majestic tried to subvert that rule

by registering I & E Transportation’svehicles with the Department ofMotor Vehicles under Majestic’scompany name. Each time I & Etransported a Medicaid patient to amedical appointment, Majestic false-ly billed Medicaid and claimed that ithad provided the service.

In May, the manager of Majestic,Igor Gekatbarg, 60, pleaded guilty inBrooklyn Criminal Court toFalsifying Business Records in theSecond Degree, a misdemeanor. Aspart of his plea agreement,Gekatbarg admitted that he know-ingly filed false paperwork.

AColombian known as “The Madman” anddescribed as one of the largest cocaine distribu-tors in history was brought to New YorkTuesday to face charges that he led a drugorganization that produced hundreds of tons ofcocaine annually and funneled revenue to ter-rorist organizations.

Daniel Barrera Barrera, 44, faced an initialcourt appearance Wednesday in Manhattan oncharges that could carry a mandatory minimumof 10 years in prison or a maximum of life inprison if he is convicted. He also faces chargesin federal court in Miami, where he would betaken after the court cases are completed inNew York.

Barrera was designated in March 2010 by theU.S. Treasury Department as a special designatednarcotics trafficker. He was arrested lastSeptember in Venezuela. He was then sent toColombia, where the U.S. pursued his extradition.

Colombian President Juan Manuel Santoshas called Barrera “the last of the great capos.”He is known to authorities in Colombia as“El Loco.”

U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said in a releasethat Barrera’s organization produced as much as400 tons of cocaine annually and used some ofthe proceeds to fund terrorist groups, includingthe Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombiaor the FARC.

Authorities said he purchased raw cocainebase or paste from the FARC and converted itinto powder at laboratories he owned and oper-ated in an area of Colombia once controlled bythe since-demobilized terrorist group,Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia or AUC.

James Dinkins, executive assistant directorof the U.S. Immigration and CustomsEnforcement’s “ICE” Homeland SecurityInvestigations, said Barrera and his co-conspir-ators are accused of running one of the largestcocaine trafficking opera-tions in history.

U.S. Attorney LorettaE. Lynch in Brooklyn,where Barrera also is facingcharges, called Barrera“the kingpin of a stunninglyprolific Colombian drugcartel, which flooded theglobe with its deadly prod-uct.”

She said the money heprovided terrorist organi-zations in Colombia was“responsible for decadesof death and destructionin Colombia, all to ensurehis deadly business ran smoothly.”

New York Police Commissioner RaymondKelly said: “If any one case epitomizes thenexus between terrorism and drug traffickingand the destructive impact on Colombian socie-ty, this is it; not to mention the crime and suf-fering cocaine addiction has fueled on thedemand-side of the equation in the streets ofNew York.”

Authorities also said Barrera laundered tensof millions of dollars of profits as he processedabout 30,000 kilograms of raw cocaine into thesame amount of cocaine powder each monthsince 1998.

He has had several cosmetic surgeries andtried to burn off his fingerprints with acid tomask his identity, authorities said. Venezuelanofficials say they confiscated houses, ranches, ayacht, apartments and 48 cars from Barrera.
