As I woke up this Sunday morning, I received a text message from one of the people I love most. It simply said Happy Sunday.

As we look back at last week's extraordinary events, we must all recall not only the terrorism in Boston, but memorial services, critical injuries with hospitalizations of innocent people, the heroism of first responders, the search for suspects and the arrest of one, more deaths as a result of a West Texas fertilizer plant explosion, the legislative defeat of US gun control, major flooding in the Midwest and another killer earthquake in China.

There are so many unanswered questions and we must seek answers to all of them and many more. All of us must keep in mind that the best way to get answers is to demand accountability!

Another thing that we must keep in mind is that tomorrow never comes and we must live for today, embrace our loved ones and enjoy the present. Yes, Happy Sunday indeed!!!

One strike, two strikes, three strikes... First, it was City Island Pharmacy, then Filomena's Pizza, and most recently, Firehouse Deli. All three business were broken into and burglarized during the night, with their cash registers stolen. NYPD officers were called and responded, but no arrests have been made so far.

City Island Images spoke with all three owner operators and asked them whether any of those cameras which should have been installed on City Island were helpful in these crime investigations and all said “ Cameras? ”

Exactly one year ago, NY Senator Jeff Klein, City Island Chamber of Commerce and City Island Civic Association officials held a news conference to proudly announce that City Island would soon have a powerful new weapon to deal with vandalism and street crime, as thousands of visitors stream in and out of the island on a regular basis. They claimed that Fifteen new security cameras were being installed along City Island Avenue.

Community leaders, businesspeople and local citizens gathered across the bridge on City Island Avenue on April 12 to announce this new project, which was funded with a $100,000 grant secured by NY State Senator Jeff Klein for the people of City Island. So what ever happened to those $100,000? We wanted to know the answer, but officials are tight lipped.

These non existent cameras were supposed to be placed in strategic locations all over the island, according to local officials, and would record video onto a hard disk only accessible to chamber members and NYPD should any crime occur. So where are those cameras? City Island Images reached out to members of The City Island Chamber, Civic Association and Senator Klein's office, but none of these organizations has yet to provide us with any immediate comments. All we can wonder is why? What happened to the $100K camera project?

Nick Verettos, owner of Firehouse Deli estimates having lost approximately $7000.00. He views the camera project as just another scandal, but this one is unfortunately home grown on City Island. Nick tells City Island Images that officials told him they are still working on installing those cameras, but added “once they get out of office, they wont be working on this any more.”

Meanwhile, for over more than one year now, City Island Images has provided live video streaming from midtown City Island, at Focal Point Gallery located near the corner of City Island avenue and Fordham Street. These live City Island Images are available to everyone on the Internet. The camera cost City Island Images less that $1000, so you do the math. This City Island images cam can be see viewed 24/7 on www.cimages.me - The video is a free public service for the entire world to see, a sentiment not shared by any of these City Island organizations.

Meanwhile, NYPD Pct. 45 officers say these burglaries are still under investigation if there is any progress in their investigation, they will will notify City Island Images.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is suspected of the Boston Marathon bombing is hospitalized and under heavy guard in the same hospital many of the bombing victims are being treated. However, he is reportedly in critical condition and not able to sustain an interrogation.

Tsarnaev is hospitalized in Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, the same hospital where his older brother Tamerlan was taken early when he was run over by his younger brother before passing away.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was arrested after he was found hiding in the bottom of a boat in the yard of a Watertown home.

The earthquake in China leaves at least 203 people dead and more than 11,500 injured. At least 96 of them were killed in Lushan, and in the jurisdiction of Ya'an, which administers Lushan, 19 people were also reported missing.

The massive quake - measured by the earthquake administration at magnitude-7.0 and by the U.S. Geological Survey at 6.6 - struck the steep hills of Lushan county shortly after 8 a.m., when many people were at home, sleeping or having breakfast.

The remaining Boston bombing suspect has finally been arrested. During these past few days, we've seen the collaborative efforts of public safety officials, with the help and cooperation of the American public and many members of the news media.

Police officials found the Boston bombing suspect seriously hurt and hiding under a tarp covering a boat parked in a neighbor's backyard.

While public safety officers are involved in a massive manhunt for the most wanted on the planet,
those Chechnyan/American terrorism suspects, who are identified as Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, and his brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26 have apparently left behind social media footprints and investigators continue to search for one. 26 year old Tamerland is now dead, but his younger brother appears to have slipped away.

One of the the two bombing suspects is now dead and the other is still being tracked down by public safety officials, who says both are believed to have links to the Russian region of Chechnya.

The second suspect has been identified as Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev. He is armed and dangerous following an early morning shoot-out. The other suspect, who are believed to be brothers was killed this morning following a gun fight. The brothers have lived in the United States for at least 1 year.
