Thousands turned out to Orchard Beach today. Some were there to people watch, others enjoyed a weekend barbeque, while some played chess and others listened to music and everyone enjoyed the wonderful warm weather.

There was a large group of dancers, who were there to celebrate the beginning of another jammed packed summer concert season in The Bronx.

This year La Mega 97.9 has joined forces with Bronx Lebanon Hospital and Heineken Beer to sponsor their free 10 week musical concert series.

SAVE OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS

Over the past few years, I have had the pleasure and honor of lecturing to students all over The United States of America, representing multiple countries, races and cultures.

I tried to share my knowledge about mass communication and international media. I noticed the wit and passion of most of these students is wrapped around their unified hope for a better future. We all have to work harder to advocate for them, or else what are we doing here on earth?

According to crime statistics, too many homicides continue to be counted and categorized and while many are not connected in any way, shape or form... They all happened during summer.

When the hot temperatures rise, many people hit the streets, and these concrete jungles become a modern version and the new face of the wild west, the most lethal place.

Summertime is not when the living is easy. In fact, the prime time for murders is undoubtedly clear it's - THE SUMMER CRIME INDEX.
