As Chair of The Hundred Year Association's Isaac Liberman Public Service Awards for NYC Civil Service Employees and the E. Virgil Conway College Scholarship Awards Programs for exceptional college scholars, I had the pleasure of attending the Annual Presentation of the 2025 Awards at 1 Police Plaza. It was a wonderful event.

It is an honor to serve on the Awards Selection Committees and to engage with our award recipients, learning about their inspiring stories.

This year, The Barrett Law Firm, P.C. proudly sponsored a college scholarship award on behalf of Pimada Phongsuriya. We look forward to witnessing her achievements as she continues her studies at Case Western Reserve University and beyond.

These Awards Programs are close to my heart, serving also a member of the Board of Governors of The Hundred Year Association, Chair of the Alumni Committee, and as a past recipient of the E. Virgil Conway College Scholarship Award.

Congratulations to all recipients on a job well done!

It looks like a river of stars you can ride through.

In the south of the Netherlands, there’s a bike path that comes alive after sunset. Tiny stones drink up daylight and give it back at night, glowing in soft swirls.

The design is a love letter to Van Gogh’s Starry Night. It sits between Eindhoven and Nuenen, where the painter once lived and worked. Art and everyday life meet on a quiet stretch of path.

The glow isn’t just pretty. It helps you see the way without harsh streetlights. Less energy. Less light pollution. More wonder.

People slow down here. You hear wheels on the pavement, a laugh, a breath. The stars beneath your tires feel close enough to touch.

A Dutch designer created it with local partners. The result is simple and poetic - a safe place to ride that also makes you feel something.

If you ever visit, go at dusk. Watch the last light fade as the path wakes up. It’s a small reminder that cities can be kinder, and nights can be gentler.

Probably ai, but can't help but smile...

These rescue dogs’ joyful faces capture the heart of what it means to serve with loyalty and love. During a training session in the snow, they discovered a person buried beneath — their instincts and excitement shining through in every wag and stare.

Each expression tells a story of courage, teamwork, and the unspoken bond between humans and dogs. These amazing animals dedicate their lives to saving others, braving harsh conditions with unwavering determination.

In their eyes, you can see purpose — proof that compassion doesn’t always come from words, but from action and devotion. 🐾❄️

Hey Facebook! Why haven't you taken down the videos of Charlie Kirk's murder?! It's not like you don't have the ability to censor content! Despicable to leave these videos up and speaks volumes about Facebook!
