An exciting new exhibition Process Reimagined – Building it Up to Tear it Down is opening at Longwood Art Gallery @ Hostos and is featuring artists, who are connected through the broad processes of making, deconstruction of materials, evidence of labor, and the absence of the artist’s hand.
Process Reimagined – Building it up to Tear it Down presents a series of artworks across a range of mediums and disciplines and focuses on the ebb and flow of construction / deconstruction inherently tied to the artists’ personal act of making.
Curator: Rachel Sydlowski.
Participating Artists: Karewith Casas | Duane Bailey Castro | Anny Chen | Christian Amaya Garcia | Sonja John | Sakura Abdel-Rahman | Matt Robinson
Join us for the opening reception on Wednesday, March 29, 2023, from 06:00 p.m. to 08:00 p.m., and view these thought-provoking works. RSVP required. We encourage visitors to arrive early as capacity at the gallery is limited.

About Bronx Council On The Arts
Founded by visionary community leaders in 1962, the Bronx Council on the Arts (BCA) is dedicated to advancing cultural equity in Bronx. From creative placemaking and arts advocacy to the provision of services for artists and arts organizations, as well as programming for children and seniors, BCA was the first organization in Bronx to focus equally on supporting local artists, serving the community, and catalyzing relationships between the two.
Since its founding, BCA has focused on the work of underrepresented groups, especially artists of color, women, and members of the LGBTQ community. We provide direct services to over 1,000 artists and 250 community-based arts groups each year, and thanks to our granting programs, we are able to touch the lives of over thousands of audience members.

Editorial
You should know that in one of his first public appearances, after having resigned as Governor for New York State, Andrew Cuomo will be visiting the South Bronx. His visit to the Bronx is to meet with Members of “The New York Hispanic Clergy Organization”, which I preside over.
As you know, last summer Governor Cuomo resigned, when he was accused and practically abandoned by all his friends, politicians, and community groups, whom he had helped in the past. These so-called friends, and groups that were all too happy to kiss his ring, joined the “cancel culture” environment, that plaques us all, without due process, they washed their hands with a dismissive attitude, sending the message “Crucify him, crucify him”.
Several courts and judges have dismissed the allegations of “sexual harassment” against Governor Cuomo. With this episode behind him, Governor Cuomo has begun to visit and make public appearances by visiting different faith-based organizations and community groups.
It is very important for you to know that Governor Cuomo’s first public visit was to “God’s Battalion of Prayer Temple” in East Flatbush, Brooklyn on Sunday March 06, 2022. His next planned visit is to the “New York Hispanic Clergy Organization” in the South Bronx.
You should also know that in a recent poll, Governor Cuomo, without being a candidate nor having announced his political aspirations, has polled with just four (4) points behind Governor Kathy Hochul.
As you know, Governor Hochul was a friend and she was handpicked by Cuomo to be his Lieutenant Governor. However, she was among one of the first to throw him under the bus, in the midst of the allegations, launched against him.
I imagine that those four (4) points will evaporate very soon and Governor Hochul will have to consider asking Governor Cuomo for his support, if she wishes to be officially elected by the people to the governorship.
As President of the “New York Hispanic Clergy Organization”, I am looking forward to hosting Governor Cuomo on Thursday, March 17, 2022. We welcome him to the South…

Rise To The Challenge At The Mott Hall Charter School
Join us for our in-person open house, which will be held on Saturday, March 18, 2023, between the hours of 11:00 am and noon.
Despite the state’s economic recovery since the pandemic first hit three years ago, significant headwinds will present challenges to ongoing economic growth and fiscal stability. The state faces prolonged inflation, rising federal interest rates and the end of federal relief aid that was instrumental in balancing the past two budgets, according to a report by State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli on the State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2023-24 Executive Budget.
The Executive Budget proposes $227 billion in All Funds spending in SFY 2023-24, an increase of $5.4 billion, or 2.5%, from the prior year. The Division of the Budget (DOB) projects outyear gaps of $5.7 billion in SFY 2024-25, $9 billion in SFY 2025-26, and $7.5 billion in SFY 2026-27. The gaps result from reduced estimates of tax collections due to a forecasted economic downturn and increases in recurring spending, principally in school aid and Medicaid.
“With economic risks and the impending loss of federal financial assistance ahead, now is the time for New York to carefully prepare for the short- and long-term,” DiNapoli said. “The budget proposals to increase state reserves and strengthen the state’s rainy-day reserves should be supported. At the same time, there are several concerning proposals that exempt approximately $12.8 billion from competitive bidding and oversight requirements, leaving too much in the dark. The budget also advances debt proposals that reinforce concerns about the affordability of debt levels and the transparency and accountability of current debt practices. I urge lawmakers to reject these proposals.”
DiNapoli’s assessment of the Executive Budget identified several economic, revenue and spending risks and other concerns.

These are the secrets that professional horse handicappers use to keep winning consistently while surrounded by thousands of losing punters every day.
By Jonas Bronck / PublisherHorse racing is a sport with a long tradition and one that has an entire legion of people surrounding it and trying to decipher every slightest hint at who the next victor might be so they could get rich off it.
Horse handicapping is a very real way for some people to make money, while it is simultaneously an empty pastime for thousands and a dangerous gamble for many others.
Today, we take a look at the secrets of actual professional horse handicappers and try to find out what separates them from the rest of the crowd and gives them the ability to actually consistently win money betting on horse races.
Come Prepared
Most people who show up at the track every week get there without having any idea what they are walking into.
Do not get us wrong, they know they are there for some races, but they have no idea who is racing, who is in form, which jockeys will be riding the horses, or much of anything else.
In fact, there are countless thousands of horse bettors who place their bets by looking at the odds alone and without doing any homework at all.
One thing to know is that, if you come unprepared, you are going to be losing money, and there isn’t really anything you can do about it.
