Amidst all the middle fingers displayed on "Crusty Row" you can see Jewels ,whom you have seen too much of here recently , and recently returned Keith Riley ( known as "Swill" to a select set of his friends ).

How to Chill-Out in Tompkins Square Park in this Hot Weather ...

If you are a squirrel you just spread your belly out over a smooth cool surface like a tree limb above and transfer that excess heat to the tree . Squirrels are not as capable of controlling their body temperature as are most other mammals : they can easily over-heat in hot weather or die of cold in extreme cold weather . It is a common sight in the summer to see squirrels spread-out on all manner of cool surfaces . Squirrels also build flat open platforms assembled from green tree leaves placed in the lower branches of trees where it is coolest to provide for a necessary cool retreat in the hot summer months .

Finally the suspect becomes such a serious problem that an ESS unit is summoned to bring a restraining jacket for the emotionally disturbed suspect .
