NYU People parked in a no parking Far Zone at the Mews NYU above the law no tickets from the FDNY or NYPD

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2010

NYU people break the law illegally parking Fire Lane No Parking endanger community the FDNY wants this area kept clear no parking allowed the Mews above Washington Square Park 2 cars parked illegally no tickets



NYU above the law and endangering our community like the illegal air sale by the USPS...why illegal, the USPS was suppose to notify the State of NY when they wanted to sell air space over St. Ann's at 120 East 12th Street but just like blocking our fire hydrants the corrupt mega billion dollar loser the USPS just went a head and sold the air to NYU and NYU was thrilled because they had already rented out the dorms before the hideous building with the facade from 1847 still their like an Albatross around NYU's evil destructive neck.

Here are cars breaking the law parked where they should not be and no tickets.

NYU Pure Greed the purple reign of terror

I heard NYU got booed big and bad at the community board meeting when the NYU rep told the great lie that NYU works with the community. NYU, the evil empire, is not done with it's Purple Reign of Terror. NYU mega-dormed the E. Village to death. NYU tears down our historic buildings and visit 120 East 12th St. and see the facade of St. Ann's from 1847 and the newest hideous NYU Mega-dorm that looks like it belongs in Miami Beach. NYU uses Stuy Town as student housing and it was meant to be affordable housing for NYers. NYU is now bent on destroying what light and beauty is left in the W. Village and they are going to kick Mayor LaGuardia to the curb they way they have our community removing his statue for expanded retail so it looks like Broadway and Mike Bloomberg and socialite city planner Amanda the people's Burden support the destruction of our historic neighborhood and the continued push out. When Mike Bloomberg says progress, he means get your moving van. Under his reign of terror the Village looks like a bad xerox of mid-town turning into a bad xerox of Dubai. No wonder the creepy John Sexton ran down to testify Mike Bloomberg must have a third term because no other mayor would allow this exploitative destructive expansion. If Mike Blomberg died right now John Sexton would prop us his dead body to make sure this horrific newest expansion went thru. Amazing that John Sexton and NYU can't comprehend the meaning of "NO!". It is not about higher education but clearly about higher greed and pure ruthlessness on the part of Sexton and NYU.

Suzannah B. Troy's YouTube on debate for Governor of NY

Debate for Governor why isn't it local TV stations for all of NY and more by Suzannah B. Troy



http://www.ny1.com/content/top_stories/127303/seven-candidates-for-governor-hold-debate

Tomorrow morning I will bring you a YouTube but first a thank you to NY1 for trying to bring us a debate that should be on every local channel. It is like street games like basketball and baseball being on cable instead of free to all people and the fact that most New Yorkers could not see or hear the debate is wrong.

NY1 tried their best but their site was over whelmed. I am sure later tonight they will have everything accessible and NY1 is a very important channel that brings us the news. I just wish NY1 was available to us all and that this debate was on every local station as well or at least a few local stations so that people, especially poor people but all people can watch a debate. This gives you a hint in to why NY State spends the most and ranks 40 -- they gave us some statistic which means NY State is a dysfunctional corrupt mess.

Charles Barron said of Pallidino and Cuomo -- not a direct quote but asking these two guys to clean up corruption is like asking an arsonist to put out a fire.

Cuomo will win but he may not have the staggering win he would like. If he lets Steve Rattner walk and continues to embrace Mike Bloomberg he will do less well than he hopes but not as humiliating win as Mike Bloomberg which goes down in NY history as the most expensive and humiliating win at a time when NYC is considered rife with corruption and his very own manager Steve Rattner is as I understand it trying to duck perjury charges and avoiding jail by paying a huge fine.


Jimmy McMillan from "The Rent is Too Damn High" Party was the only candidate to really talk about poverty and how so many people cannot afford to live in New York and the consequences of struggling to survive here let alone feed and educate are kids.

Kristen Davis was so surgerized and fake looking it was hard to look at her but she made a funny and excellent point about the MTA. Every candidate agreed the MTA is a corrupt mess. From NY1's website Davis jokingly compared the transit agency to her former escorting service and said that unlike the MTA, her escorts provided "on-time and reliable service."

Charles Barron wants to get rid of the MTA. I would add get rid of the USPS which loses billions of dollars each year but that is another issue but related because there is so much corruption and waste.

Warren Redlich of the Libertarian Party was a winner for me...he opened by exposing that the head of the New York Public Library earns I believe he said $680,000 and that made my head spin. If we fired him we could open our libraries 24 hours 7 days a week...well not really but it would help with budget cuts for the library.


The Green Party candidate did not even register with me and that has been the a consistent problem with the Green Party and who they choose.

I have a lot more to say. I started watching this debate at a bar and got tired of reading the captions and the body language of the people moderating and asking questions which I felt was telling. Of course Barron opened by pointing out they are all white and I agree this is a problem.

Barron and others used this time to send messages they wanted out there for the public to hear.

Barron was the only one to slam Mike Bloomberg and even though I might vote for Cuomo and if I do I will writing him asking him to take action against corruption, Barron was right, Cuomo has been selective about which corrupt individuals he goes after.

Cuomo was also exposed for taking $50,000 campaign donation from an undisclosed source that owns a parking lot. Cuomo did not answer that charge which I found frustrating.

I would have loved for Barron to be more specific with Cuomo about who Cuomo has let walk. Ironically besides Steve Rattner who in my opinion along with other white collar criminals belong in jail as well as paying multi-million dollar fines, I believe Paterson has been allowed to walk and Rangel and I don't think Charles Barron would agree that he is as guilty as Cuomo about allow certain people to walk but Barron did get in some powerful zingers as he always does although I don't agree with him enough to vote for him.

Kristen Davis spoke as if she was reading from a script and maybe she was written by the men who helped orchestrate the take down pay back of Elliot Spitzer but she was the only one to point out the NY State and I want to point out city workers do not pay their legal bills and if they did they might think twice about crime. I continue to write The NY Post and ask them to give us, the people of New York that latest figure for how much we are paying for Christine Quinn and her staff's legal bills. Some of Quinn's staff hired Sullivan & Cromwell, the same firm Goldman Sachs uses and they specialize in White Collar crime which speaks volumes about Quinn and her staff if they need to hire top defense attorneys that specialize in White Collar crime.

Albany and City Hall are so corrupt that our State is a laughing stock, a fun place for tourist which Bloomberg and gang court and a raping and pillaging ground for greedy developers like NYU which is trying to force through the area by La Guardia Place and Bleecker as "commercial zoning" so NYU can have the largest building and it is an NYU Hotel!

I want a governor and mayor that will protect us from greedy corrupt developers and I want a governor and mayor that will put the people of New York first.

I want a governor and mayor that believes in equal rights for everyone including when it comes to the law because I am sick of rich corrupt wheelers and dealers being above the law.

Did I see the governor tonight and anyone who reads my blog knows Christine Quinn sold us out, she the people of New York out to developers who are joyfully donating money to her because they want her as mayor and I said no Quinn.

Stay tuned....more tomorrow on all of the above and a YouTube as well.

I am too tired to proof read...my toe is painfully broken....speak to you all tomorrow...


p.s. I told a young man tonight "I love you"....if you watch my new YouTube on St. Vincent's we need a hospital -- you hear me say at the end of the YouTube to a woman slamming Bloomberg and Quinn....
the same words..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q70Wfqxk3GY By the way, there were signs at the protest asking Cuomo for help to get us a hospital in the W. Village.

Thanks to this wonderful young man...if it wasn't for you I could not have gotten to experience this debate. I am glad they had the different candidates and I got to listen in....

St. Vincent's a huge turn out to demand we need a hospital YouTube

Mike Bloomberg upping National profile for run for Pres. NYC's economy, only ones benefiting are Mike's finance, real estate friends, economy tanking


Gee, is that why Mike hired his campaign people giving them 6 figure salaries all the tax payer's expense estimated to cost us 2 mill while his republican deputy mayor Goldsmith talks about shutting fire houses? Watch my series on Mike Bloomberg & Steve Rattner http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30Q-UEqA04M Will Cuomo let mike's bf walk, his money manger & I believe the ditto for own of this paper & nytimes because of $ & big fund raiser for democratic party. Cuomo says equal rights for gay marriage but how about equal rights when it comes to the law. I believe Mike did not declare all his campaign expenses which is criminal, Misdemeanor A & carries jail time. Mike, Rattner, Rangel, Paterson can share a prison cell. Quinn belongs in bars too for pushing thru a 3rd term denying us a referendum & for what the great lie Mike was going to rescue the economy. It is worse unless you are Steve Rattner, finance sector, greedy corrupt developers including NYU who is trying to get the City to make Bleecker St. commercial zoning for NYU's hotel. A back room deal Bloomberg-NYU, Sexton ran down testify Mike must have 3rd term?



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30Q-UEqA04M Watch my YouTube series on Steve Rattner and Mike Bloomberg. Mike and his corrupt mini-me Christine Quinn pushed through a 3rd term because supposedly we needed his help for economic crisis but the economy is worse unless you are Mike's rich friends and developers. John Sexton, pres. of NYU runs down to testify Mike must have 3rd term and my guess back room deal, Mike is trying to help NYU make Bleecker St. commercial zoning for NYU's hotel. Corrupt, greedy and only ones laughing are Mike and friends all the way to the bank at the expense of the people of NY.

NY Post gets two women CEO to sell Mike Bloomberg's mini-me Christine Quinn's propaganda about helping women, interview the CEO's manicurist and the w


http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedcolumnists/quinn_saved_women_jobs_H4856LHSiWxXTlwegoADQM


Shame on The NY Post for selling the lie. The editors do not have the courage to actually go out there and meet with women that are minorities in the front line -- some who are forced to work a 6 day week or 7 day week or be fired. I fear some of these women have to turn over their tips as well. You have two wealthy women in positions of power that I am guessing are white but why not let their manicurists and the women that sweep the floors where they get their hair cut write an op ed piece. Stop the economic racism, the misogyny including the women that are members of the boy's club and selling the lies for Mike Bloomberg and Christine Quinn. I have never seen so many empty story fronts and so many small businesses forced out. Mike used one for his campaign office on Broadway by12th. If a small business can prove hardship than they can be excused from paying sick days but otherwise people need sick days and we need strong monitoring of men and women being forced to work 6 or 7 days a week that have not idea what it is to have a sick day. In case the NY Post removed this because they do not want opposing views I will post on my blog.

Attend rally Oct, 17, 2PM St. Vincent's to demand a hospital for the West Village

Dear Friends,

We will rally at the site of St. Vincent’s on Sunday October 17th at 2pm to demand the full restoration of services taken away when St. Vincent’s was wrongfully closed in April.

Here are some recent articles that have exposed the serious life and death situation our community is in and the fact that these problems aren’t decreasing, but increasing.

The Chief of Emergency Care at Bellvue, the closest trauma one hospital, calls the closing of St. Vincent’s a “significant disaster”. Please spread the word and forward the videos below as well to as many as you can, post them on your facebook if you have one and forward them by email. We must get a large turn out on October 17th to let our public officials know we will not stop until we have a hospital back.

Yetta

Cooper Union evil corrupt dishonest smoke & mirrors just like Mike Bloomberg mistreating our communities crushing us displacing us the greed generat


Cooper Union is an evil real estate magnate that uses the students as tool for zone busting and shady real estate deals. The newest is to tear down the little old science building and supersize and lease for 99 years like they land leased the parking by Carl Fischer. The neighborhood looks like a hideous bad xerox of dubai w/mirrored buildings that reflect a history destroyed & a community no longer welcome. Thank you, Suzannah B. Troy


http://www.crainsnewyork.com/article/20101014/REAL_ESTATE/101019929

When Mike Blomberg says progress, he means get your moving van!!!


Cooper Union, NYU and NY Law have mega dorms in the East Village and busted through zoning -- the only thing they conserved on is down right violence and transportation to force us out.


Corrupt -- evil -- greedy and throw in Columbia U. abusing eminent domain to move the entire neighborhood of Manhattanville.


They love to abuse the term community facility to bust through our zoning, weigh heavy on our old infrastructure that is busting apart at the seems and exclude and push out the neighborhoods where they ruthlessly expand.


The college kids are not anti-establishment but join soulless ruthless presidents like John Sexton of NYU to be the "greed generation" and have zero respect for our communities.


I have asked for community outreach resource centers in every mega dorm where they abuse the term community facility so students would see and get involved in volunteering, even be given credits if that is what is needed for them to learn to get involved and make a difference.


I confronted mayor Bloomberg on the John Gambling show about this. He responded just a few people feel the way Suzannah feels. Now he knows differently. We sent him a message election day.


I wrote President Obama.

Not one NY Paper asked Mike Bloomberg about Rattner - read Fortune

Fortune Finance Street Sweep Term Sheet Economics Tech Wall Street Washington
The Term Sheet by Dan Primack

Mr. Rattner, the bell tolls for thee

Back in June, Mike Bloomberg was asked about securities fraud allegations against friend and financial advisor Steven Rattner.

"I don't think he did anything wrong," Bloomberg told the Washington Examiner. "I happen to think the charge against him is ridiculous."

Quite the display of (blind) loyalty. You've got to wonder if Rattner pulled Mr. Mayor aside on Tuesday night, during the release party for Rattner's new book on his time as car czar. Perhaps just to say: "I'm real sorry Mike, but I'm about to admit to playing you for a fool."

How come? Because the SEC soon is expected to announce a settlement with Rattner, who it believes participated in a kickback scheme to secure public pension money for his private equity firm. That firm, The Quadrangle Group, settled earlier this year and fingered its former partner as the bad actor.

The SEC has not yet released details of the settlement -- nor even confirmed that there is one -- but the NY Times reports that it will include more than $5 million in restitution and a multi-year ban from the securities industry. If the agency follows its Quadrangle script, then we could see formal charges against Rattner just after 10am, followed by a settlement announcement.

It does not appear that Rattner has yet struck a similar deal with Andrew Cuomo, who originally gave Rattner immunity for his testimony against "placement agent" Hank Morris and pension fund crooks like Alan Hevesi and David Loglisci (this reportedly was before Cuomo found emails that made Rattner's involvement much more explicit).

For the uninitiated, here is a quick rundown of the allegations against Rattner (based on prior SEC and NY AG filings).

  • Rattner secured a video distribution deal for the brothers of New York pension fund CIO David Loglisci, via a (now defunct) Quadrangle portfolio company. The deal was done over the initial objections of portfolio company management.
  • Presumably at Loglisci's suggestion, Rattner secretly hired Hank Morris as a "placement agent," in order to secure a $100 million fund commitment for Quadrangle from the New York State Common Retirement Fund. This came after Quadrangle's legitimate placement agents had only been able to secure between $25 million and $50 million. Morris got Quadrangle the money without ever setting up or attending any meetings with CRF on Quadrangle's behalf.
  • Morris also helped get Quadrangle $75 million from New York City pension systems, via a third-party who since has pled guilty to securities fraud.
  • One of Loglisci's brothers put Rattner in touch with potential investors on the West Coast. These included Elliott Broidy, who sat on the board of the Los Angeles Fire & Police Pension Fund. LAFPPF committed $10 million to Quadrangle, and Broidy has since pled guilty to felony charges of rewarding official misconduct.
  • In 2006, Morris allegedly asked Rattner for a contribution to the reelection campaign of State Comptroller Alan Hevesi (Loglisci's boss, who last week pled guity to fraud). Rattner demurred, saying that he had a policy against making contributions to public officials with oversight over investments, Morris suggested that Rattner contribute the money via a third party. Soon after, Rattner tapped a Democratic donor who subsequently contributed approximately $25k to Hevesi (plus another $25k from the donor's wife).

Rattner refused to participate in the original Quadrangle settlement, and his intransigence nearly destroyed his former firm (the jury is still out on its ultimate survival). He also has steadfastly refused to comment on the matter in interviews, citing the impropriety of speaking about an ongoing investigation.

So as we wait for official word from the SEC, I'm left with several questions:

  1. What, if anything, will Mike Bloomberg say in response to the settlement? I've already asked his spokesman, who said he'd get back to me.
  2. Will the securities ban preclude Rattner from helping to manage Bloomberg's fortune via Willet Advisors, the asset management formed earlier this year via a spinout from Quadrangle? My assumption is yes, but it's unclear without details.
  3. Will Rattner finally comment on the matter? Outside of a possible statement within the settlement release, my guess is no. After all, Cuomo may still be after him.
  4. Aside from my questions, I'm also left with a sense of anticipatory satisfaction: Rattner did wrong, in the name of back-scratching "business as usual." He thought he was above both the letter and spirit of the law, or perhaps didn't think about it at all. Now he will be punished.

I certainly understand those who will say that a $5 million payout is just a drop in Rattner's vast bucket. And I also realize that some will see the securities industry ban as little more than an forced vacation for someone who doesn't need to work. There cert is validity to such sentiments.

But it's important to remember that Rattner values his reputation to an extraordinary extent. Trust me when I say I know. This settlement, if and when it comes to pass, will tarnish that reputation indelibly.

Mike Bloomberg's money manger Steve Rattner banned by SEC & how this impacts Mike Bloomberg





This story we believe was released last night so it would be buried by the miners being rescued. Steve Rattner being banned by the SEC is huge and directly reflects on his best friend Mike Bloomberg. Rattner was busted for pay to play in pension fund scandals here in NY and for me it was a conflict of interest and greed that he was involved in the first place, pure arrogance and denial that Rattner and even Bloomberg were confident Rattner would never be held accountable. Bloomberg's money was shifted out of Quadrangle to a new Rattner company because Rattner thought he would walk away again but now the money will have to be shifted and maybe we can begin to see how Rattner money manages and some may also be big players in the media that have been doing their best to surpress this story. I railed against Bloomberg blaming Thompson for the pensions when Bloomberg's very own money manger was implicated and no on in the press said how could Bloomberg and his lousy campaign people attack Thompson on the pensions when Mike Bloomberg is the one that has a lot of explaining to do but Mike has never explained anything about his relationship to Rattner and the pension funds and his money that some part I believe is in the Cayman Islands because Rattner put it there and why? Bloomberg is not transparent. Bloomberg and Rattner have not respect for limits.

Rattner encouraged Bloomberg to run for a third term and deny us a referendum along with Christine Quinn's help and now Rattner and Bloomberg's goal to make Mike president will never be. This is yet another nail in the coffin of Mike's dream to be president but we the tax payers have to pay for his campaign staff parked at City Hall because Mike Bloomberg's ambition is his cocaine and he is forcing tax payers to pay for his ambition with 6 figure salaries for his campaign staff at city hall.

I believe more major scandals ala Bloomberg and gang are coming. Stay tuned....


I tell you in video voter angry towards Bloomberg has risen much greater than last year and by the way I was the first person to report about voter anger and Mike Bloomberg may not win and I did so May 4, 2009 http://www.youtube.com/user/Suzannahartist?feature=mhum#p/f/15/F3OLAgH1MJg
