		Embroiled in an ongoing acrimonious relationship with City Councilman Eric Gioia (D-Woodside), Marshall intervened last spring and asked Conley to step down from CB 2’s top post for six months in order “to help bridge the gap” and allow for a cooling-off period.
		Marshall’s request for Conley to step down as chairman of CB 2 was met with resistance from an overwhelming majority of board members, and some countered Switzer’s statements by saying that it was Gioia who should reach out to Conley.
		Conley said he was happy for the support that CB 2 has shown him, and that it was Cooper’s efforts as chairman that kept the board running smoothly.

		Shoddy service, persistent delays and frequent shutdowns on the No. 7 subway line are eating into the quality of life in Queens, Councilman Eric Gioia has charged.
		Since most of the 7 runs on elevated track, much of the work ends up on the weekends so as not to disturb those living along the line with nighttime work noise.
		"Last weekend we had a big opening at the Queens Museum of Art, and once again the 7 train was not running to Queens," said Tom Finkelpearl, the museum's executive director.

		NYC Council Member Eric Gioia, chair of the Committee on Oversight and Investigations in the New York City Council, said: "Some retailers are allowing children and teenagers to purchase the most violent, the most graphic, and the most sexually explicit video games ever created, notwithstanding ratings and warnings on the packaging.
		Many adults who have not played video games may not realize that these 'games' will typically force an impressionable child to kill in order to 'win.' Adults buying video games for children need to understand that the game makers and retailers are not on their side when it comes to these violent video games.
		We believe that corporations in the video game industry, who may pride themselves as good corporate citizens, must assume greater responsibility in ensuring that violent interactive entertainment is not accessible to children and youth...

		NEW YORK, May 29 (Tierramérica) - There are good days and bad days at Newtown Creek, a 2.4-km waterway dividing the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens in New York City that also carries the dubious distinction of being the most polluted in the country.
		It took twelve more years for New York State to enter into a consent order with ExxonMobil, and since the deal did not establish clean-up benchmarks, critics say it allowed the company to drag its feet almost indefinitely.
