De Blasio Put Nonprofit Advance Peace in Charge of a Violence ... (THE CITY)

On March 15, 2021, moments after Mayor Bill de Blasio and Public Advocate Jumaane Williams announced their plans to launch a new gun violence prevention program ...

“We have decided to forego any payment from the city of New York,” Boggan wrote in a September 2022 email to the MOCJ. And while other areas of the city may be seeing a slowdown in gun violence, at least according to New York Police Department data, Street Corner Resources is responding to more calls this year than in 2021 or 2020. Sekou said she hasn’t heard anything about the Advance Peace pilot in nearly 11 months, and her organization, which was slated to be a subcontractor under CCD, never received any funding or direction. If you don’t do that, you will have destroyed the relationships and undermined the confidence of other people that the city is willing to follow the evidence and to execute on the evidence.” In the meantime, Advance Peace staff tried to get a contract signed with the MOCJ. Two weeks after the announcement, during a March 31 meeting between CCD, Advance Peace, the public advocate, and the MOCJ, city officials urged Advance Peace to help, describing their participation as integral to the pilot. As their attempts to get a contract carried on for months, Fragd found out by email that her organization’s proposed budget of $600,000 for training and technical assistance was being cut in half. Boggan and the other Advance Peace staffers started to develop more serious reservations. The plan wasn’t as simple as Advance Peace opening an office in Manhattan and enrolling fellows into its program. [study](https://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/full/10.2105/AJPH.2019.305288) found that Advance Peace led to a nearly 45 percent decline in gun crime in Richmond, California, between 2010 and 2017. Though the surge was still far below the record highs of the 1990s, it both threatened de Blasio’s legacy and became the dominant issue in a heated, competitive mayoral race to select his successor. Months later, no participants have been enrolled, and Advance Peace is pulling out of New York City altogether after what Boggan called a “toxic” experience.

You are working with a 500-kilo animal so you have to be really focussed on what you are doing and because of that, you don’t have time to think about anything else. I do dressage on a regional level and it adds an element of competition and an extra drive. I’m a nature person so being able to gallop is my favorite because it is a physical and mental workout. I try to go to the races now and then to see the staff and I visited many of the women’s races because it was new to me. With all the improvements to vehicles, we are trying to minimize our impact and we have seen races like the Arctic Race of Norway also beginning to innovate with new solutions. There are similarities between controlling a horse and a bike team. We are still in the early stages here but we are looking to reduce our footprint by updating our fleet with a new bus and by switching out our old cars. We can only hope that in time some of those events will come back onto the calendar because I think the globalization of cycling is an awesome thing. At Qhubeka we handed over bikes to school children in South Africa and we could see that it can change their lives. A big evolution will come in the next few years, it’s growing very fast but you can see that there are still some differences in the professionalism between genders. I couldn’t tell you the difference between a front and a back wheel but you grow into it very quickly. I studied languages and back then if you didn’t speak Spanish or Italian it was very hard to work in the sport.

Kings Injury Report: There is 'hope' De'Aaron Fox can return soon (Sactown Royalty)

The Kings got good news after De'Aaron Fox underwent an MRI for his injured knee.

This gives the Kings the chance to show what they are truly made of and that they don’t have to rely on Fox to win. When Fox was sidelined last night, the team showed that they have the ability to persevere and overcome a large deficit without the help of their leader, something many Kings fans — including myself — had doubts about to begin this season. Luckily for them, there are back-to-backs during this stretch and the team will have at least a day to rest between each matchup. Hopefully, things go differently for the young star, though, and he is back and playing in All-Star caliber form soon enough. Heat and his return will be based upon the resolution of symptoms, but there’s hope it could be soon. This is extremely good news for the Kings, who are in the midst of a four-game road trip.

Alex de Minaur Stuns Medvedev In Paris Battle | ATP Tour | Tennis (ATP Tour)

Alex de Minaur hung tough Wednesday to roar back and clinch a dramatic second-round upset against Daniil Medvedev at the Rolex Paris Masters.

I’m happy with the way I played, I’m happy with the level of tennis I brought when I had to and [it was] a great start.” Some trademark De Minaur defence had earlier clinched the first set for the Australian, who scrambled to put up a high ball on set point at 5-4, 30/40 before the fourth seed mishit the smash long. With the victory, De Minaur equalled his best showing in Paris, where he also reached the third round in 2019 and 2020. Despite that disappointment, he was again aggressive on return at 6-5 and a Medvedev double fault on match point at 30/40 confirmed the biggest win of the World No. The win against World No. De Minaur wore down the 2020 champion and 2021 finalist Medvedev with a combination of relentless retrieving and nerveless serving at big moments, saving 12 of 15 break points he faced.

Australia's De Minaur was down a break in the decider against world number three Medvedev but dug deep to win 6-4 2-6 7-5 and seal his first victory against a top-five player in 19 attempts.

ATP Paris Day 3 Predictions Including Daniil Medvedev vs Alex de ... (Last Word on Baseball)

The final ATP Masters event of the year is a truly loaded one in Paris. Who do you think will win on Wednesday in the French capital?

De Minaur is a player that likes pace on the ball and Medvedev is not a player that plays with pace. He’s won more matches than he has in any season, unsurprising given his movement and ability to redirect pace is right up there with the best on tour. It’s something Taylor Fritz is going to have to accept as he plays the part of potential Parisian party-pooper. After going ten consecutive events mid-season without making a quarterfinal, he’s made the final of Seoul, the semis in Tokyo, the quarters in Stockholm and the final of Vienna. [Gilles Simon’s career](https://lastwordonsports.com/tennis/2021/03/23/2021-is-the-end-for-monfils-gasquet-and-the-old-french-guard/) hung by a thread against Andy Murray in the previous round. Today we’re excited to predict Medvedev’s second-round meeting with Alex De Minaur and the tough second-rounds of Taylor Fritz, Pablo Carreno Busta and Stefanos Tsitsipas.

Cape Fear Foodie: Circa 1922, Wrightsville Foodie Events, and Dia ... (WECT)

A quick review of Circa 1922, a feature of two Wrightsville Beach culinary events, and a reminder of Dia de los Muertos.

Or know of a best kept secret that you want the rest of the Cape Fear to know about? Judges select the best of the best, while you can choose the People’s Choice, and who has the best beer and wine. If you like to eat, enjoy a drink, and love the beach (I know, that covers just about all of you) then Wrightsville Beach is the place to be this week. The evening I went was somewhat spur-of-the-moment, and a friend and I decided to dip in for a late dinner. Two events should be on every foodie’s radar, starting with Thursday night for The Blockade Runner’s “Hops and Harvest Beer Dinner.” I had the pleasure to go last year (I will be there again Thursday from 6 - 9 p.m.), and the culinary team at East Oceanfront restaurant puts together a delightful menu of five courses with perfect pairings by Hi-Wire Brewing. The Day of the Dead, the famed Mexican holiday that has quickly gained steam in the United States. 3) is the annual “Hops and Harvest Beer Dinner” at the Blockade Runner in Wrightsville Beach, and then on Saturday is the popular “Taste of Wrightsville Beach” event. I love a good Caesar salad and typically make one or two a week at home, but this one was exceptional. It may be one of yours too when you give it a try. For one, I was able to squeeze in a lovely meal last week at Circa 1922 in downtown Wilmington. Situated along Front Street in downtown Wilmington, Circa 1922 is a throwback to the early 20th century with some excellent modern eats. Hello again my Cape Fear Foodies, I must apologize for the lack of content over the last few weeks.

Mission Celebrates Día de los Muertos (Mission Local)

Welcome back, queridos. It's once again Día de los Muertos, the Mexican holiday in which the living honor the dead. It's no surprise, then, that La Misión.

Before arriving in the Mission, she covered small business and migratory birds in New York City while learning to code and design at Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism. She is a proud Chinese and Filipina American. And a young entrepreneur who makes non-alcoholic drinks served in the clay cups that she makes herself. And, all along the commercial corridor, face painting — from $20 and up — was in full swing. Angelica Sanchez Rico, and her sister Camilla, said Day of the Dead is their favorite holiday because they can see their beloved family members. Bare-chested and resplendent in huge, feathered headdresses, they danced to drums that shook the bones of the several hundred marchers gathered in the streets. Today marks the 30th anniversary of the annual Festival of Altars, with the altaristas gathering in person for the first time since 2019. It is a tradition to bake the Pan de Muertos, a sweet bread, in the weeks leading up to the Day of the Dead. × You can find all of the events here. It’s no surprise, then, that La Misión is home to some of San Francisco’s best displays of the holiday: Sugar skulls grinning in the panaderías, altars fashioned reverently in Potrero del Sol Park, and of course, the procession. It’s once again Día de los Muertos, the Mexican holiday in which the living honor the dead.

Although it is hard to let go of those people we loved so much, Día de Muertos is a way to keep their legacy alive. Oziel Martínez is from Michoacán one of the states in Mexico where Día de Muertos is heavily celebrated. “To the people that have passed away from COVID-19, that’s just a big part of our community right now,” said Carlos Gonzalez, a Righetti High School student. “This event is not necessarily about mourning our loved ones who have maybe passed but it’s about celebrating the life, celebrating the things that they did, the things they did to get us to where we are and also celebrate in community and also honor our own lives,” said Abraham Melendrez, Corazón del Pueblo’s Executive Director. It is believed the spirits of our deceased loved ones return to Earth. Día de Muertos in Mexico is a long-standing tradition that began before the Spanish Conquest in 1521.

Luis Alvaro, another attendee, said that the event is a much-welcomed celebration of Latine heritage in Providence. Día de los Muertos “is often looked at as the Mexican Halloween, and that’s really not true,” Martinez said. This year’s Día de los Muertos event was particularly important to hold because many individuals passed away during the COVID-19 pandemic, Martinez said. Martinez encouraged attendees to reminisce and share memories of loved ones. “We bring the relatives who have passed away back to life by putting up photographs, flowers and their favorite foods.” This year’s event was hosted by Rhode Island Latino Arts, the North Burial Ground and the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology in a partnership that began last year, according to Marta Martinez, executive director of RILA.

They are a source of pride for the whole community. Like seeds planted under soil, the dead disappear temporarily only to return each year like the annual harvest. “In that mythology, the corn is buried when it’s planted and leads an underground life for a period to later reappear as a plant,” Medina said.
