How to Finance Roof Replacement in Bronx, NY: 5 Key Strategies

A roof replacement in the Bronx, NY is a huge investment, but it could easily turn out to be less painstaking than one might expect with the right approach. Whether your roof is too old, ravaged by a storm, or even needs to be replaced for better insulation, there exist different methods of financing the process. Unpredictable weather does lots of damage to houses in general. So, ensuring that you have a strong and reliable roof is very important.

Replacing a roof in the Bronx, NY can be expensive, but there are ways to make it easier. Here are five key strategies when navigating the cost of your roof replacement when using a reputable roofing contractor Bronx.

Personal Loan: If you do not wish to mortgage your home, then you can finance your roof replacement brooklyn ny with personal loans. Such loans are, by definition, unsecured, which means that there is no mortgage taken on your property in case of default. Thus, for some, it may be more secure. They provide set interest rates and payback terms, which further simplifies budgeting. On the downside, personal loans typically carry a higher interest rate than home equity loans, especially for those who have a rather lower credit rating. However, they usually take less time to get approved. This can be very helpful for those homeowners who must act very quickly to start replacing their roofs.

Homeowner’s Insurance: In cases where your roof has been damaged due to a covered event, such as a storm or fire, your homeowner’s insurance might help cover the cost of your roofing repair in Bronx, NY. Insurance claims can cover part or all of the replacement costs, depending on your policy and the extent of the damage. Damage must therefore be well recorded, and the job must be carried out by a seasoned roofing contractor Bronx who can provide all information needed for the filing of the claim. Routine wear and tear is usually not covered hence the option works mainly in emergency cases. For more info click on this link.

AI can turn some impressive party tricks, but it's unsuited for solving serious problems in the real world. This is true of predictive AI, whose correlations are data-driven conspiracy theories, and of large language models like ChatGPT, whose plausible waffle is always trying to pull free of the facts. The real issue is not only that AI doesn't work as advertised, but the impact it will have before this becomes painfully obvious to everyone. AI is being used as form of 'shock doctrine', where the sense of urgency generated by an allegedly world-transforming technology is used as an opportunity to transform social systems without democratic debate. Faced with social structures whose foundations have been eaten away by decades of privatisation and austerity, the political response is to pump money into 'frontier AI' while hyping it up as the most awe-inspiring technology since the Manhattan Project. The Prime Minister says he will "harness the incredible potential of AI to transform our hospitals and schools" while ignoring leaking roofs in the NHS and the literally collapsing ceilings in local schools. This focus on the immaterial fantasies of AI is a deliberate diversion. When large language models are touted as passing basic medical exams, it's because they've absorbed answers from across the internet. They are incapable of the embodied understanding and common sense that underpin medicine, education or any other form of care. One thing that these models definitely do, though, is transfer control to large corporations. The amount of computing power and data required is so incomprehensibly vast that very few companies in the world have the wherewithal to train them. To promote large language models anywhere is privatisation by the back door. The evidence so far suggests that this will be accompanied by extensive job losses, as employers take AI's shoddy emulation of real tasks as an excuse to trim their workforce. The goal isn't to "support" teachers and healthcare workers but to plug the gaps with AI instead of with the desperately needed staff and resources. Real AI isn't sci-fi but the precaritisation of jobs, the continued privatisation of everything and the erasure of actual social relations. AI is Thatcherism in computational form. Like Thatcher herself, real world AI boosts bureaucratic cruelty towards the most vulnerable. Case after case, from Australia to the Netherlands, has proven that unleashing machine learning in welfare systems amplifies injustice and the punishment of the poor. AI doesn't provide insights as it's just a giant statistical guessing game. What it does do is amplify thoughtlessness, a lack of care, and a distancing from actual consequences. The logics of ranking and superiority are buried deep in the make up of artificial intelligence; married to populist politics, it becomes another vector for deciding who is disposable.

From the next episode of my sitcom inspired series Four's Company

You sell yourself short, you know,” Billy says, uncharacteristically quiet. Steve looks over at him, but Billy's not looking back, he's gazing out across their neighborhood instead.

“Look,” he goes on, slow and awkward, “I don’t exactly know where I'd be right now, if not for you. But, I know I wouldn’t be here.” He throws his arms out wide, to encompass all of New York City Steve supposes. It's not like they have a spectacular view or anything, they're not up remotely high enough for that. Their little strip of roof isn’t even facing the glittering Manhattan skyline.

Steve gets what he's saying though.

He jostles their shoulders together, “You'd have gotten out.”

“Yeah, maybe.” Billy kills the last of the cigarette and pitches the butt to the street below.

At any given time you could climb up to the roofs of Manhattan and find assorted newsies up there, I think.

Jack and Crutchie get up there and Jack rambles on about cowboys and seeing the big wide world and Crutchie smiles and listens and knows that his brother is all talk. Jack wouldn't really leave New York, not unless he got to take everyone with him. Jack's waxes poetic about this place he's never been too, and Crutchie joins in the daydreaming, knowing neither of them are taking it seriously. It's like make believe to them.

Davey and Les is always the former chasing down the latter, who is "too young to be somewhere this high up", but they end up chatting up there anyway sometimes. About Les' fears of going back to school without his new friends, about whether the newsies will still welcome them if they don't work with them, about whether they'll even remember them. Davey, of course, says that they're silly things to worry about. The Jacobs family made an impression on the newsies, and it'd be ridiculous to think they'd forget the pair of them. He doesn't say that he has the same fears.

Jack and Davey is mostly silent, with the occasional worry spoken softly between them, shot down by the other with words of kindness and the underlying tone of "you're being stupid to say that, course that's not true". Once Davey asked Jack if he really would leave to Santa Fe without them, and was content when he received the answer of: "Not without you. Not without any of you."

Race and Jack talk loudly into the night, bickering and playing cards and seeing if they can throw things at targets they set up back when they first became friends. Very few serious conversations have happened with them, but there were a couple of ones about relationships or worries they didn't think they could say to the others. The odd tear-filled conversation about sexuality is overshadowed by the constant talking over each other and teasing. But it doesn't go unappreciated.

The rare times that Spot is up there with anyone, it's normally Racer. Race who talks and talks and occasionally pauses to let the other add commentary. The pair of them make fun of Jack, and talk about issues going on within their boroughs. It's not a special place for them, but the lodging house is loud, and Spot always makes his way up to the roof of it whenever he visits for a while - just to get away from it all. Race follows him up there after a while, then keeps him company with chatter and hand-holding until Davey inevitably joins them and he can go back down to play more card games.

Davey and Spot exclusively end up there when they're both already too exhausted from socialisation to continue it. They sit in almost complete silence, drinking in the sounds and sights of NYC, until one of them eventually regains their voice and asks the other how things are going. They discuss important meeting topics and whether or not this next challenger will dethrone Spot (the younger boy is confident in his abilities, but checks with Davey's logical mind whenever he can). Davey asks him about Jack, and about the history of the bad blood between Manhattan and Brooklyn. And, now he thinks about it, Brooklyn and everyone. Spot nods along and explains in an incredibly biased way the reasons, and in turn asks Davey about his school - about his lessons, classmates, "anything interestin been said there lately?".

Jack and Spot used to go up there. Back when the latter liked the Manhattan leader. He still tries to spend time with Brooklyn's leader, but more often than not it ends in awkward silences, snide comments and the shorter boy announcing his leave about 2 minutes in. Then one day, Jack manages to catch the other boy when he's talking to Davey. He joins them, and Davey - after a few minutes - says something about needing to get Les home and leaves. It's completely silent, the wind's blowing, and goddamn it Jack's sure the other boy will just leave as well. But he doesn't. It's the only time Spot opens his mouth and says what he means to the Manhattan newsie - and he's still not sure why he did. He tells the other that him leaving the strike was a betrayal that cut him so deep he considered cutting all ties with the borough. He says that Jack hadn't left just the strikers, but friends and family, and that he'd left it all on Davey and him to sort out the mess as leaders. It's the only time he ever says to Jack that he thought they were family. And he makes it clear that he's unsure if they can ever be again. They're up on the roof for hours, long enough that the sun sets and rises. It ends with them both going off about their days, and if both leaders were seen and heard in tears that night, well. That's neither here nor there.

15 Inventors Who Were Killed By Their Own Inventions

Marie Curie -  Marie Curie, popularly known as Madame Curie, invented the process to isolate radium after co-discovering the radioactive elements radium and polonium. She died of aplastic anemia as a result of prolonged exposure to ionizing radiation emanating from her research materials. The dangers of radiation were not well understood at the time.

William Nelson - a General Electric employee, invented a new way to motorize bicycles. He then fell off his prototype bike during a test run and died.

William Bullock - he invented the web rotary printing press. Several years after its invention, his foot was crushed during the installation of the new machine in Philadelphia. The crushed foot developed gangrene and Bullock died during the amputation.

Horace Lawson Hunley - he was a marine engineer and was the inventor of the first war submarine. During a routine test, Hunley, along with a 7-member crew, sunk to death in a previously damaged submarine H. L. Hunley (named after Hunley’s death) on October 15, 1963. 

Francis Edgar Stanley - Francis crashed into a woodpile while driving a Stanley Steamer. It was a steam engine-based car developed by Stanley Motor Carriage Company, founded by Francis E. Stanley and his twin Freelan O. Stanley. 

Thomas Andrews - he was an Irish businessman and shipbuilder. As the naval architect in charge of the plans for the ocean liner RMS Titanic, he was travelling on board that vessel during her maiden voyage when the ship hit an iceberg on 14 April 1912. He perished along with more than 1,500 others. His body was never recovered.

Thomas Midgley Jr. - he was an American engineer and chemist who contracted polio at age 51, leaving him severely disabled. He devised an elaborate system of ropes and pulleys to help others lift him from the bed. He was accidentally entangled in the ropes of the device and died of strangulation at the age of 55.

Alexander Bogdanov - he was a Russian physician and philosopher who was one of the first people to experiment with blood transfusion. He died when he used the blood of malaria and TB victim on himself.

Michael Dacre -  died after testing his flying taxi device designed to permit fast, affordable travel between regional cities.

Max Valier - invented liquid-fuelled rocket engines as a member of the 1920s German rocket society. On May 17, 1930, an alcohol-fuelled engine exploded on his test bench in Berlin that killed him instantly.

Mike Hughes - was killed when the parachute failed to deploy during a crash landing while piloting his homemade steam-powered rocket.

Harry K. Daghlian Jr. and Louis Slotin -  The two physicists were running experiments on plutonium for The Manhattan Project, and both died due to lethal doses of radiation a year apart (1945 and 1946, respectively).

Karel Soucek -  The professional stuntman developed a shock-absorbent barrel in which he would go over the Niagara Falls. He did so successfully, but when performing a similar stunt in the Astrodome, the barrel was released too early and Soucek plummeted 180 feet, hitting the rim of the water tank designed to cushion the blow.

Hammad al-Jawhari - he was a prominent scholar in early 11th century Iraq and he was also sort of an inventor, who was particularly obsessed with flight. He strapped on a pair of wooden wings with feathers stuck on them and tried to impress the local Imam. He jumped off from the roof of a mosque and consequently died.

Jean-Francoise Pilatre de Rozier -  Rozier was a French teacher who taught chemistry and physics. He was also a pioneer of aviation, having made the first manned free balloon flight in 1783. He died when his balloon crashed near Wimereux in the Pas-de-Calais during an attempt to fly across the English Channel. Pilâtre de Rozier was the first known fatalities in an air crash when his Roziere balloon crashed on June 15, 1785.

2023 in Books: Severance, Ling Ma

Book: Severance by Ling Ma (2018)

Completed: January 14, 2023

My rating: 4.5/5

Summary: Meet Candace Chen. She's a 20-something who coordinates Bible production for a publishing company. She keeps the wheels turning — even when the world is literally coming to an end. When a pandemic causes the apocalypse, she stays her course until that's no longer an option. We follow Candace before, during, and after collapses. We watch what it means to survive through it all.

Capitalism in the End Times

Prescience. That's the most shocking part of Ling Ma's Severance. A pandemic story written in 2018, Ma's novel mirrors COVID-19's near-global experience.

When the pandemic starts in the novel, there's speculation over how brief lockdowns would be. We see characters get takeout and relish in the opportunity to get out of the office. Businesses start to shut down.

Through it all, young professional Candace Chen continues to labor. She takes a special assignment as the last one to physically work from her Manhattan office.

Why?

She needs the money, and the payout is too good to refuse.

Throughout the book, we see infrastructure collapse. Candace joins a survival group and deals with its power dynamics. One set of superiors is replaced by another. The world moves on but in a way much worse than before.

During the pandemic, I, like many other people, continued to work. The job provided stability and health care during an "unprecedented" time. I worked from home. This was a huge privilege.

But I started to notice something: My hours started creeping up. As members of my team were let go, I started working 10, 12, 13 hours a day. I worked weekends. If I wasn't watching television or cooking, I was at work. It became both my structure and my everything.

Those with a similar experience during the height of the pandemic will be able to empathize with Candace. Now we know, in a way more acute than before, that capitalism's demands continue and intensify in times of crisis.

As pandemic restrictions lifted, we witnessed a K-shaped economic recovery. The people who were already well off, especially those in less-impacted industries, continued to thrive. Those in worse economic conditions struggled.

In many ways, this is the aftermath we currently live in. Inflation went (and is still) through the roof. Housing is expensive. Global tensions are high, with conflict from Ukraine to Palestine.

And yet, I clock in and pay bills. I produce, in much greater volume than pre-pandemic. I look out at the world — often with hopelessness — still very aware of the material demands that must be met. So I work to meet them and do what I will with the trimmings.

Severance is a read that made me feel seen. If you're a burnt-out workaholic, feeling like a cog in the machine, this book will speak to you too.

The Brooklyn Navy Yard: History and Highlights Near Fort Greene

Nestled between the neighborhoods of Fort Greene, Williamsburg, and DUMBO, the Brooklyn Navy Yard is a vibrant mix of history, innovation, and community. What was once a bustling naval shipyard has transformed into a hub of creativity and industry, with its roots still firmly planted in its storied past. Whether you're a history buff, an urban explorer, or just someone looking for a unique experience, the Navy Yard has something to offer.

A Brief History of the Brooklyn Navy Yard

The Brooklyn Navy Yard dates back to 1801, when it was established as one of the first federal shipyards in the United States. For more than 150 years, it served as a cornerstone of America’s naval operations, building and repairing some of the most famous ships in history. During World War II, the Navy Yard reached its peak, employing over 70,000 workers and constructing ships like the USS Missouri, where the Japanese surrender was signed, marking the end of the war.

After the Navy Yard was decommissioned in 1966, it sat largely unused for years. In the 1970s and 80s, redevelopment efforts began to breathe new life into the area. Today, it’s a thriving industrial park home to hundreds of businesses, showcasing a seamless blend of history and modern innovation.

Highlights of the Brooklyn Navy Yard

1. Brooklyn Navy Yard Center at BLDG 92

If you’re curious about the rich history of the Navy Yard, a visit to the Brooklyn Navy Yard Center at BLDG 92 is a must. This free museum offers interactive exhibits, artifacts, and stories that highlight the Yard’s role in American history. Learn about the people who worked here, from shipbuilders to engineers, and get a glimpse of how the Yard has evolved over the centuries.

Don’t miss the guided tours that take you deeper into the site. Options include a bike tour of the grounds or a bus tour highlighting the Navy Yard’s historic architecture and cutting-edge innovations.

2. Steiner Studios: Hollywood in Brooklyn

Did you know that the Navy Yard is home to one of the largest film and television production facilities outside of Hollywood? Steiner Studios occupies a massive portion of the Yard, producing hits like "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" and "Boardwalk Empire." While the studios themselves aren’t open to the public, knowing you’re walking through a site where movie magic happens adds a touch of glamour to your visit.

3. Food and Fun at the Yard

The Brooklyn Navy Yard has become a foodie haven thanks to spots like Russ & Daughters. This iconic New York institution has a location in the Navy Yard, offering their famous bagels, lox, and other classic bites. For a more upscale experience, check out the rooftop restaurant at the Navy Yard’s Building 77. With stunning views of Manhattan, it’s a great spot to enjoy a meal or drinks.

Additionally, the Yard frequently hosts pop-up events, including food markets and art installations. Keep an eye on the calendar for fun, local happenings.

The Brooklyn Navy Yard Today: Innovation Meets History

The Navy Yard is not just a historical site; it’s a place where creativity and technology thrive. It’s now home to over 500 businesses, ranging from small startups to major companies in fields like tech, fashion, and manufacturing. The Yard’s commitment to sustainability is also impressive, with green roofs, solar panels, and a focus on eco-friendly development.

One standout feature is the New Lab, an innovation hub where entrepreneurs and engineers collaborate on groundbreaking projects. From robotics to renewable energy, the work happening here is shaping the future.

Exploring Fort Greene and Beyond

The Brooklyn Navy Yard’s location makes it the perfect starting point for a day exploring Fort Greene and its surrounding neighborhoods. After visiting the Yard, take a stroll through Fort Greene Park, designed by the same minds behind Central Park. Or wander the streets of Fort Greene to admire its beautiful brownstones and discover hidden gems like local coffee shops and boutique stores.

If you’re up for more adventure, the nearby Brooklyn Bridge Park offers stunning waterfront views, while DUMBO is ideal for snapping photos of the iconic Manhattan Bridge. The Navy Yard’s proximity to these hotspots makes it a key part of any Brooklyn adventure.

Plan Your Visit

The Brooklyn Navy Yard is open to the public, but it’s a good idea to check ahead for specific events, tours, and hours. Many areas require advanced booking, especially for guided tours. Whether you’re diving into its rich history or enjoying its modern amenities, the Navy Yard is a destination that truly has it all.

Come see for yourself how this historic shipyard has become a symbol of Brooklyn’s resilience and creativity. It’s more than just a place—it’s a story waiting to be explored.

Merica Solar Panels: Empowering New York City with Clean, Affordable Energy

New York City, with its towering skyscrapers, bustling streets, and world-class energy demands, may seem an unlikely place for a renewable energy revolution. Yet, as the city seeks to modernize its infrastructure and reduce its carbon footprint, solar power has emerged as a key player in shaping a sustainable future. Among the innovators leading this charge is Merica Solar Panels, a company that is bringing affordable, high-performance solar solutions to the heart of the Big Apple.

Why Solar Power in NYC?

New York City is a city of contrasts—ancient brownstones nestled between modern glass high-rises, and lush parks surrounded by concrete. Despite its dense urban environment, the city has been steadily shifting towards more eco-friendly solutions. With its ambitious goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050, solar energy is central to the city’s long-term sustainability plans.

Solar power offers a host of benefits for city dwellers:

Environmental Impact: NYC aims to become carbon neutral, and solar panels are a crucial part of that equation. By reducing reliance on fossil fuels and cutting down on emissions, solar power helps protect the city's environment for future generations.

Rising Energy Costs: New Yorkers are no strangers to expensive electricity bills. With the unpredictable nature of energy costs, many residents and businesses are turning to solar to lock in long-term savings. Solar power can drastically reduce utility bills, offering financial relief in the face of rising energy costs.

Tax Incentives and Rebates: The state of New York offers generous tax incentives, rebates, and credits for residents who choose to go solar, making it an even more attractive option for property owners. With programs like the NY-Sun Initiative, the upfront cost of solar panels becomes more affordable, increasing their accessibility.

Insurance Claims in New York: A Diverse Landscape

Insurance Claims in New York:

New York's unique blend of urban and rural environments, combined with its varied climate and dense population, creates a complex tapestry of insurance claims. From the bustling streets of Manhattan to the serene Adirondacks, residents and businesses face a wide array of potential risks that can lead to insurance claims.

Property damage claims are perhaps the most prevalent in the Empire State. New York's weather plays a significant role in this category, with its harsh winters and occasional severe storms. Snow and ice damage to roofs and structures is a common sight, particularly in upstate regions. Coastal areas and those near rivers often grapple with flooding issues, while wind damage from storms or hurricanes can affect properties statewide. The dense urban landscape, especially in New York City, contributes to a high incidence of fire-related claims, which can often impact multiple properties due to the close proximity of buildings.

Water damage claims form another substantial category, stemming from various sources. The state's aging infrastructure in many areas leads to issues with burst pipes, particularly during frigid winter months. Plumbing problems in older buildings, sewer backups, and leaky roofs all contribute to the high volume of water damage claims processed each year.

Auto insurance claims are another significant area, given New York's notorious traffic congestion, especially in and around New York City. Collision claims range from minor fender-benders in crowded parking lots to major accidents on busy highways. The state's status as a no-fault insurance jurisdiction means that personal injury protection (PIP) claims are commonplace, adding another layer to the auto insurance claim landscape.

Liability claims form a critical component of the insurance ecosystem in New York. The state's large population and bustling business activity naturally lead to a higher incidence of such claims. Premises liability claims, such as slip-and-fall accidents, spike during icy winter conditions. Product liability claims against manufacturers and professional liability claims targeting doctors, lawyers, and other professionals are also frequent occurrences.

Workers' compensation claims represent another substantial category in New York, reflecting the state's strict laws in this area. The constant construction and development in urban areas contribute to a high number of construction-related injury claims. Repetitive stress injuries and occupational illnesses also feature prominently in this category, spanning various industries from office work to manufacturing.

Health insurance claims form a massive portion of the overall claims landscape, mirroring the state's large and diverse population. These range from routine medical care and checkups to emergency room visits and specialized treatments. The high cost of healthcare in New York, particularly in urban areas, often leads to complex and high-value claims.

While less frequent than other types, life insurance and disability insurance claims still play a significant role in the New York insurance market. The state's large workforce means that both short-term and long-term disability claims are common, covering everything from injuries preventing work to mental health-related disabilities.

In recent years, business interruption claims have gained increased prominence, especially in light of global events affecting commerce. These claims often involve complex calculations of lost income and can be particularly challenging to navigate.

Given the complexity of many insurance claims in New York, public adjusters play a crucial role in the claims process. These licensed professionals work on behalf of policyholders, not insurance companies, to help settle claims fairly. They assist in assessing damage, interpreting often complex policy language, and negotiating with insurers. Public adjusters are particularly valuable in handling large or complicated claims, where their expertise can help maximize the claim value and expedite the settlement process.

The New York State Department of Financial Services regulates public adjusters, ensuring they adhere to ethical practices and meet specific standards. This oversight provides an additional layer of protection for policyholders who choose to engage their services. However, it's important for individuals considering hiring a public adjuster to verify their license and fully understand the fee structure, which typically involves a percentage of the claim settlement.

New York's insurance claim landscape is as diverse as the state itself. From weather-related property damage in rural areas to complex liability issues in urban centers, the variety of claims reflects the state's multifaceted nature. The prominence of public adjusters in this ecosystem underscores the complexity of many claims and the value of expert assistance in navigating the process.

As New York continues to evolve, so too will its insurance claim patterns. Climate change may alter the frequency and severity of weather-related claims, while technological advancements could introduce new types of liability concerns. Whatever changes come, one thing remains certain: understanding the nuances of insurance claims in New York will continue to be crucial for residents and businesses alike, ensuring they're adequately prepared for whatever challenges may arise.
