Will Yonkers school board members have to dip into rainy day or emergency funds?.... Oh wait they spent that last year.....

#WINNING: Yonkers School Students Will Continue To Get Free Lunches Until March Despite President Donald J. Trump's Government Shut Down
YONKERS: As if the #Trump administration’s recent rollback of school lunch nutrition rules weren’t bad enough, the president’s ill-conceived, peevish partial government shutdown (now at 33 days and counting) is further endangering Yonkers schools’ ability to provide healthy meals for the the city of hills children.
The US Department of Agriculture (USDA), which subsidizes school meal programs, has assured the Yonkers School District they would receive funding for those programs through March.
But Yonkers school board members are looking down the road and wondering whether they’ll have to dip into rainy day or emergency funds.... Oh wait they spent that last year
Maybe they can pay for school lunches by cutting after school programs, or raid money from summer programs to make ends meet if the shutdown continues beyond that.
But soon the school board will have to start figuring how to solve the 50 Million budget deficit with out firing YFT President #SamanthaRosadoCiriello's teachers or CSEA President Lionel Turner's educational aides and support personnel

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Westchester Aesthetic Center offers cutting-edge body contouring solutions including the EMSCULPT to help redefine your contours
PRESS RELEASE: Get Your Perfect Body Today! Introducing EMSCULPT
WESTCHESTER COUNTY: Imagine lying down and doing 20,000 crunches or squats in 30 minutes.
You can with EMSCULPT!
The only procedure to help both women and men build muscle and burn fat.
Despite committing to a healthy diet and regular fitness regimen, stubborn fat can still cling to certain parts of the body, making it challenging to get rid of on your own. While eating right and exercising are keys to leading a healthy life, sometimes stubborn fat might need that extra push to give you your desired shape.
EMSCULPT is a breakthrough body shaping treatment that can help you put the finishing touches on achieving your aesthetic goals.
What is EMSCULPT?
EMSCULPT is a revolutionary, non-invasive body shaping treatment that can sculpt the contours of the abdomen and buttocks.
Designed with high intensity focused electromagnetic technology, this safe and effective treatment stimulates supramaximal muscle contraction.
The body adapts to this stimulation by reconfiguring its internal muscular structure. As a result, stubborn fat is comfortably reduced and abdominal and buttock muscles appear more defined.
How much downtime can I expect?
EMSCULPT is a non-surgical treatment that does not require the use of incisions or needles, granting zero downtime following your session.
You may continue your activities as normal once you leave our office.
EMSCULPT is FDA-approved and tested for safety and effectiveness.
There’s no pain associated with a treatment – it’s more intense than the most intense workout.
There are no side effects or downtime, and there is absolutely no surgery involved!
How many EMSCULPT treatment sessions will I need?
The number of body shaping sessions you may need will ultimately depend on the degree of stubborn fat you are trying to address.
Call us today to customized a plan to help you best achieve your goals. We are offering five minute free trial sessions.

YONKERS BIZ: Pet Luxury, the first ever luxury pet care brand for animals comes to town!


Pet parent and animal protection advocate, Virginia Perez, launches Pet Luxury, the first ever luxury pet care brand for animals to give pets the best holiday gift.
Pet Luxury is a luxury care brand for pets created by Westchester County Legislator, Virginia Perez.
Proud pet parent and lawmaker, Virginia has been fighting to strengthen animal protection laws.
The decision to create Pet Luxury was inspired by her dissatisfaction with the quality of many pet care products on the market.
The company has announced its official launch, consequently making amazing products available to pet owners, including dogs, cats, and horses, and giving them an opportunity to treat their four-legged loved ones to a gift of ultimate luxury this holiday season, particularly as Christmas draws near.
The amazing benefits of keeping pets have often made many people to go the extra mile of spending lots of resources including time and money to ensure their loved animals are fine and in good health.
Unfortunately, many of the so-called pet care solutions currently on the market are detrimental to the health of the pets as they have harmful contents like toxic chemicals and detergents.
This is where Virginia Perez and her team at
Pet Luxury are looking to make a huge difference in the lives of pets and their owners.
Pet Luxury is focused on providing cruelty-free, vet recommended, GMO-free and made in America products that are specially formulated to be gentle, safe, and effective, with products that are free of harsh or harmful chemicals, dyes, and detergents.
Pet Luxury currently has a wide range of products on the market including the Cucumber Melon Shampoo and the Cucumber Melon Conditioner. Other pet care products from the brand include the Medicated Shampoo for skin infections and irritation treatment, sweet pea and vanilla body spray, sweet pea and vanilla shampoo, and the Perfect Coat Shampoo that will brighten and shine every shade.
Pet Luxury also has 100% genuine Turkish Cotton Luxury Towels, similar to the plushy towels found in many Five-star hotels.
Pet Luxury products are carefully formulated using popular fragrances and nutritional ingredients that were originally designed for humans.
With gentle and effective ingredients like Aloe Vera Gel, Cucumber Melon Infusion, Oatmeal Extract, Sweet Pea & Vanilla Infusion, Japanese Cherry Blossom and Soybean Oil to name a few.
There’s even a Medicated line formulated with special ingredients dedicated to treat skin infections and irritations and a line of healthy supplements that will have your pet looking and feeling strong and healthy for many years to come.
The special blend in every formula allows pets to enjoy the benefits of each ingredient, leaving them with an invigorated feeling and long-lasting energy and fresh scent.
Founded by a lover of animals and advocate against animal cruelty,
Pet Luxury will also be donating part of the proceeds from the sale of each product to various animal welfare organizations that focus on the health, safety and psychological wellness of animals.
This basically means that every purchase of any product from the brand is a contribution towards putting an end to animal cruelty.

YONKERS EATS: Plaza Garibaldi's hand-painted chairs, murals, Aztec calendars and great Mexican dining in the city of hills

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN: The staff and food at Plaza Garibaldi just has away of putting people at ease and feeling comfortable as they forget all other distractions for a while.
The owner tells me Plaza Garibaldi opened its doors on January 31, 1998 and this longevity comes from the friendly staff treating customers like family.
However, Plaza Garibaldi owner tells me that Plaza Garibaldi is named after the raucous square in Mexico City where roaming mariachis serenade passing lovers and this explains the packed house on weekend nights,
On the weekends you had better reserve a table at Plaza Garibaldi
