GOWANUS CANAL HURRICANE SANDY FLOODING MAP
Press Release:
Friends of Brooklyn Community Board 6, Inc. (FBCB6) is assembling an inventory of the impacts from Hurricane Sandy and the Nor’easter on local businesses, property owners, and community organizations. We have created a Google Collaborative map for the Gowanus Canal corridor and are gathering information about how properties were specifically affected.
Please share this map with people in the Gowanus area who have been affected by the storm. You can access the map at the following link here

Turkish getups with a barbell are cray-cray.
That is all.
dougjones771@gmail.com says
Worked up to 85# on the barbell on the TGU. Got one the left side but not on the right, which was interesting cause I'm usually much stronger on the right side.

Peter says
2pm with Nick. 6k row: 21:51.4. Average 500m/split of 1:49.2. This compares nicely with my previous 6k row on 10/27 which I finished in 22:10.3. I also PR'd my 5k time in ~18:15 (previous PR was 18:23). The last 200m was excruciating. Nick is something to behold when motivating a rower. I couldn't even see properly the last 100m, but there was no way I could let up with that man yelling in my ears to go faster.
JB says
I've been offline all day and have pulled myself out of bed to say thank you CFSBK for hosting last nights event. It is truly amazing how everyone jumped in to make it a success. I am so proud to be part of this community. xox
