It is a co-design step where residents are randomly chosen to serve on #committees to discuss the ideas submitted, prioritize projects that address the needs of the borough, and identify the final ideas to be put to vote by the public.

After the sessions, #NewYorkers are invited to vote and decide which projects they would like to see implemented in their borough.

"By day, sisters Molly and Clara appear to be modern-day #NewYorkers, living in an indie cinema that was once home to a #Yiddish theater. At night, they transform into #estries — owl-like women #vampires who prey on men.

Molly and Clara — whose alter egos are based on figures from #Jewish lore — are the heroines of “Night Owls,” A.R. Vishny’s #timetravel debut #novel, one of a trio of #books that took top prizes at the Sydney Taylor Book Awards for Jewish #children’s books."

Jewish Telegraphic Agency · Teen novel about women vampires wins a top prize for Jewish children’s booksBy Penny Schwartz

Just saw another bicycle lane accident, at 49th Street. Guy on a powered rent-a-bike, stopped at a red light with some guy making a delivery. Another delivery guy doesn't stop in time, slams into the first guy, throwing him from his bike. No one was hurt. No one cursed either which surprised me.
