Yes, you are seeing advertisements on my blogs! Why?

My goal is to quality for something called "partner" on YouTube when I have enough views and subscribers and I am warming up right now with my many blogs. I do not get to pick the advertisements and already I wanted to barf when I saw an ad for someone running against Norman Siegel but we are in a recession and with what feels like criminal activity going on both at Albany and City Hall, times are going to get tougher before they get better.

Why not attempt to make some money on advertisements on my blogs?

I just won't put anyone "Bloomberg Newzzz" because for me it is "high art" -- I am painting with words and I don't want cheesy ads next to my work. I prefer not to have it on any of my blogs but I want to see if I will actually make money from adsense and there is only one way to find out.

Inoteca wine tasting no. 2 Are all Italian men that own vineyards handsome? Seems like it!




Here is the young owner of the Vineyards to your left representing his family who have owned the property since the 19th Century and his charming public relations fellow representing wines that are like an exciting vacation for your palette without leaving NYC, the Lower East Side you can enjoy the lush beauty of Italy in spirit as well as with wine.


You can find these fine Italian wines at De-Vino Wine Boutique, 30 Clinton Street, Lower East Side 212-228-0073

Inoteca has wine tastings that are as fun as they are luscious

Mae West Walking tour coming to you or should I say come out and focus on female power!!!!!!

I received this missive!!!!!!

Hello from a dramatist in Washington Square!
Enjoyed your comments about MAE WEST and I wanted you to know I give an annual walking tour dedicated to the Brooklyn-born trailblazer on or near her birthday.
This year's walking tour is Sunday afternoon August 16th.
We'll start at Shubert Alley at 4 PM and focus on female power:
"GAUDY GIRLS on The Great White Way: Mae West and Texas Guinan in the Theatre District."
Details are on my Texas Guinan Blog TexasGuinan.blogspot.com - - - and also on my Mae West blog.
Stay happy, Mae


+For you youngsters, Mae West was a ground breaker in many ways from her earthy sense of humor and celebration of women as sexually empowered to her business acumen. She was hugely successful business woman starting from the most humble background in Brooklyn. Madonna has clearly molded her self after Mae West and other blonde bomb shells but Madonna never came close to Mae West's to sexy, funny and empowering theatrics.

Thanks Mae, I will try and stay happy but NYC is a tough town as you know when you got arrested by the NYPD performing in your play SEX on Broadway, the play you wrote. The mayor of NYC was behind your unfair arrests and I know many gay men protesting Mike Bloomberg because they feel the same way right now in 2009. The NYPD brought you to what is now Jefferson Library and than was a court house in the West Village and you were found guilty! But Mae you always were a winner and did your time with grace and good humor of course!

I love you Mae!
Sincerely,
Suzannah B. Troy


Watch my YouTube "Mayor Bloomberg King of New York Part 2"
and give me 5 stars or do not come up and see me sometime, right Mae!!!???!!!!!

The USPS 14 billion dollar loses in the last three years breaking the law business as usual

I don't get threatened by USPS employees and I have been intimidated or been made to be unsafe walking in to my lobby of my home. I just have nothing to do with the USPS because their customer service makes the Mafia look warm, cuddly and down right honorable and while the USPS does it's shady activities from intimidation to retaliation, breaking the law as pictured above and it is hard not to notice it says United States on their uniform as they go about their activities above the law.... including shady real estate sales, selling air space over St. Ann's as one example, 120 East 12th Street, selling it to NYU without notifying the State of New York as legally required -- the people breaking the law have "United States" emblazoned on their uniforms and stationary. Some message the USPS is sending.....The USPS wants to kid itself they lose mega billions because of email.

I don't set foot in a post office and I stopped having any mail delivered on my property because I am not comfortable dealing with activity that conjures up those famous words "going postal".

I saw the UPS and Fed Ex are getting tickets galore as usual but the USPS who breaks the law daily with confidence there is zero accountability and flouts that fact they have "federal protection" even when intimidating customers still can't break even let alone make a profit.

Why should the people of this country bail out the USPS when the USPS workers have better benefits and retirement packages than most Americans. It is like bail out Wall Street -- it is just plain wrong. The tax payers bailed out Wall Streeters who are counting their big bonuses and aren't eager to pay taxes so they claim any where but NYC as their home and they aren't offering to pay back any bail out money.

The USPS is so outdated but most of all lousy customer service is their biggest killer along with their abuse of their Federal Status as well as daily sites like this one of them breaking the law.

Burning the Floor! Broadway seats very cool on a hot summer night

The seat was free, the air conditioning full blast fabulous! If you like the Fox 5 dance competitions this is for you. The cast has beautiful bodies and it there is no story line, just all kinds of dance. When they have performers actually come out and sing the stage heats up along with the dancing. The two leads had small role and are in the show for two more weeks. The performances with Spanish live vocals and dance were my favorites.


Because of major stress, it was relaxing to not think about anything.

From there I went on to the Andy Warhol party.

Sssh, notice the media coverage of NY Political corruption has gone quiet suddenly?

http://bloombergnewzzz.blogspot.com/ Read my very long piece "Bloomberg Newzzz" -- and I think he keeps socialite mega million, Amanda Burden, City Planner around because compared to her, Bloomberg is warm and cuddly! Also, since contacting the press with Bloomberg Newzz and calling for the "term limits deal ordeal", votes by a tainted City Council to be tossed out" -- I have noticed the press has stopped giving us any news on the on going investigation at City Hall. Amazing, every time the news shows politicians in handcuffs in New Jersey, I keep wondering why every New York politico has avoided such photos and media coverage. Even corruption at City Hall is "neatly" handled!

Very public arrests are needed here in NYC!!!!!!

Organic Wine Journal, a beautifully crafted review and Suzannah B. Troy gets her first photo credit and it's dreamy!

http://www.organicwinejournal.com/index.php/2009/07/organic-sicily-in-downtown-new-york/Jonathan Russo, what beautifully crafted review, giving me even more insight and pleasure to a deliciously, luscious experience on the Lower East Side at one of my most favorite places Inoteca! Thanks for photo credit of Gunther Di Giovanna and great photo choice as well because I found him and his wines dreamy. I treasure my visits to Inoteca because it's an affordable way to step off the busy streets of NYC and pretend I am in Italy. Gunther Di Giovanna brought a unique feel and taste of Sicily to us and being a romantic I asked how his German Mother met his Italian Dad met. He told me Paris! Romantic! Thanks again for adding knowledge and insight about organic wines at a magical evening at Inoteca. The evening was a wonderful event and escape from writing "Bloomberg Newzzz", my art, painting with words on NYC politics. best, Suzannah B. Troy http://bloombergnewzzz.blogspot.com/

Last Chance to Save Coney Island!

http://www.saveconeyisland.net/ Please Coney Island and if you are inspired be an activist while you do it!

I recommend Dr. Parikh as a dermatologist, he is located in Tribeca

http://www.yelp.com/biz/parikh-sherwin-dr-md-new-york


He is just wonderful, smart and kind. He won't try and sell you pricey "thangs" you don't need. He works with each person as an individual. I know because I am 47 and I don't want to do botox. I talked to him about the no frills version of retin A a prior dermo had recommended but said I go out in the sun and I don't have the energy to deal with all that high maintenance work.
I did show him my sunscreen and I had this freaky freckle I had him removed. I just felt better for spending some quality time with him. The office is beautiful and the Tribeca area is always fun to walk around and visit. So many great places to eat or you can walk over to the West Side Highway and hang out by the water.

Visit Coney Island and how about being an activist too!

PAL is asking for you to help out our NYC kids! I made a donation, I hope you will!

Remember being a kid who could hardly wait for summer?  Was your reality ever far from what you hoped for?   Some days might have even been downright dull and boring.
 
Well …what about a summer filled with new friends, field trips, softball, volleyball, reading, arts and crafts, dances, parades, contests, board games, exercise, healthy foods, caring and encouraging adults?
 
That’s exactly what’s in store at PAL.  Our summer day camps and playstreets in five New York City boroughs have ways of making learning and growing fun.  Act now so you can give New York City kids a summer to remember.

It is not the critic...Visit Teddy Roosevelt's birth place right here on 20th Street NYC

http://www.nps.gov/thrb


     I Like this quote I dislike this quote

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”

 Theodore Roosevelt quotes (American 26th US President (1901-09), 1858-1919)

Natalia 'Saw Lady" Paruz and a 7th annual Musical Saw Ensemble will be gathering in Queens to attempt to break a Guinness World Record in Queens!


I happily posted this email and you may see me there celebrating having made it to 47 years old wearing a very tight t shirt that says Vote for Tony Avella for Mayor!  

Hi Suzannah,

I would like to ask you if you could blog on the 7th annual Musical Saw Festival in NYC, please, where an attempt to break the Guinness World Record of the 'Largest Musical Saw Ensemble' will be conducted.
The current record, set in Poland last year, is 27 musical saw players.
Will we set a new record in NYC on July 18th?

The art form of making music with a carpenter's handsaw has been around for 300 years, but has become almost forgotten since the 1930's. The festival set up to make sure this unique art form does not disappear.
For the past 7 years Astoria (Queens) became a pilgrimage spot for musical saw players from all over the world. In past years musical saw players from China, Japan, India, Germany, Canada and all over the USA participated.
The festival, which is supported by the Queens Council on the Arts, NYC Department of Cultural Affairs and the NY State Council on the Arts, includes a concert, an art exhibit and a workshop - all centered around the musical saw, of course.

A video from last year's festival:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mltQGm0_dVE

We hope that you would consider mentioning our unique event in your blog, please. It would be huge help to reach out to saw players (we need as many as possible for the Guinness attempt!). Musical saw players should contact the festival a.s.a.p. through the festival's website.

When: Saturday, July 18th, 2pm
Where: Trinity Church, 31-18 37th Street (37th street at 31st Ave), Astoria (Queens), NYC
Admission: $10
More info: www.MusicalSawFestival.org

Thank you very much,
all the best,

Natalia 'Saw Lady' Paruz
Founder/director of the annual NYC Musical Saw Festival
