Stressing the need for an integrated response to terrorism, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon says Member States will decide to create the position of a UN Counter-Terrorism Coordinator to promote better coordination, collaboration and cooperation among all players.

“By working together – from strengthening law enforcement to tackling the underlying drivers of extremism – we can greatly reduce this major threat to peace and security,” Mr. Ban told the Security Council, during its debate on threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts.

NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg is once again threatening to eliminate City Island Ladder Company 53 in his latest city budget.

City Islander's lives and their property will be in danger, as well as the very special quality of life in this “New-England-esque” type of atmosphere, which islanders enjoy on City Island. Local residents and businesses will definitely suffer, if the mayor's plan come to fruition.
