1Council Speaker supports NYPD spyingNew York City Council Speak-er Christine Quinn said yester-day she agrees with MayorMichael Bloomberg in backingthe NYPD’s controversial sur-veillance of ethnic communi-ties.

“Unless we know that lawswere broken or someone’s civ-il liberties were violated, I do

not think the NYPD shouldstop the practice,” Quinn said.“However, when one groupfeels targeted, it’s crucial tomake sure that their voicesand concerns are heard.”

Quinn’s statement of sup-port came the same day theNYCLU called for a federal in-vestigation into the reported

use of White House funds bythe NYPD. Yesterday, the APrevealed that the NYPD's sur-veillance activities not onlyused federal money, but wereleft out of annual reports toCongress.

“This new report … raisessignificant new questionsabout White House oversight

of how its funds were used bythe NYPD and whether thoseuses comply with the law,”said Hina Shamsi at the ACLU.In the past, Mayor MichaelBloomberg and New York At-torney General Eric Schnei-derman have turned down re-quests to investigate theNYPD. METRO/EAE

Maps still ahit or missNEW YORK. For the secondyear in a row, the MTA’sPassenger EnvironmentSurvey revealed that theMTA isn’t great with sig-nage. According to thesurvey, only 49 percent ofstations had a correct orlegible subway systemmap. An MTA spokesmanexplained that outdatedmaps are rarely ondisplay, but if there is anygraffiti, stickers orsignage blocking any partof a map, it’s consideredillegible by the authority.

New Yorkersprefer plasticin taxisNEW YORK. More and moreNew Yorkers are payingtheir taxi fares with cred-it cards, according to theTaxi and Limousine Com-mission. In the lastmonth alone, nearly halfof all trips were paid forwith plastic. Those tripsrepresented 55 percent ofthe total amount of mon-ey collected in the entiretaxi industry. TLC Com-missioner David Yasskycredits the cards withhelping the taxi industryendure the recession.“There is a compelling ar-gument that credit cardacceptance allowed thetaxi industry to weatherthe worst of the econom-ic downturn,” saidYassky.

Underground crimes risesteadily on the subwayThe subway crooks simplycan’t be stopped: New statisticsrevealed by the MTA yesterdayshow that the number of ma-jor felonies committed everyday underground jumped 29percent since last year.

On average, eight majorfelonies were committed dailyin January of this year, upfrom six average per day inJanuary of 2011 and Januaryof 2010.

The number of feloniescommitted every day on thesubway combines majorcrimes like murder, rape, rob-bery, assault and grand larce-ny. The total number of majorfelonies committed in Jan.2011 was 193, while this yearit was a whopping 250. MTAstatistics revealed that the in-crease in crime was due torobberies, 21 more than lastyear, and grand larcenies, 57more than in 2011.

NYPD Transit Bureau ChiefJoseph Fox said police arefighting to reverse the rise ofcell phone and other electron-

ic gadget theft, which acceler-ated when the iPhone 4 de-buted last July.

“People feel at ease usingtheir handheld electronic de-vices on the subway system. Asubway station or the inside ofa train seems like an idealplace to catch up on e-mail,”Fox said, but the reality is thisthat this “has resulted in a lawenforcement challenge.”

Fox said the theft of elec-tronics represented 59 percentof all crimes committed in Jan-uary of this year, up from 42percent in Jan. 2011.

“Cell phone theft has beenincreasing steadily,” Fox said.

The NYPD has increased itssubway efforts, Fox said, in-creasing the number of uni-formed and undercover offi-cers underground.

Board member Andrew Al-bert was still concerned. “Thepolice cannot be everywhere,”he said.

Elevator,escalatoroutages plaguesubwayThe MTA released its quar-terly elevator and escalatorreport yesterday, revealingthe ups and downs of thesubway system. From Octo-ber to December of last year,there were 94 elevatorentrapments, the majorityof them, 49, in Manhattan.

The elevator that trapped

people the most was the 5-year-old 191st Street eleva-tor on the 1 line, which hadfive entrapments.

The most shocking reve-

lation in the report was thecondition of the LexingtonAvenue-53rd Street E, M, 6station. An escalator at thatstation recorded 70unscheduled outages in justa three-month span last yearand one elevator was avail-able for only 54 percent ofthe time. People who thefrequent the station say it’sa mess. “I’ve been using thisstation for 10 years,” BrendaCarpenter, 59, of Forest Hillssaid. “It’s been unacceptablesince it was brand new.”

COMPARE OUR RATE, BABY!

The same day two New YorkCity police officers were shotat a public housing complexon the Lower East Side, StateSen. Daniel Squadron and oth-er elected officials reiteratedtheir concern about whetherdesignated public housingcops are being reassigned else-where, most notably to polic-ing Occupy Wall Street.

Yesterday Squadron, whorepresents the LES and partsof Brooklyn, said he is con-cerned the city removed des-ignated New York City Hous-ing Authority cops from pub-lic housing beats in Novem-ber and sent them to guardOccupy Wall Street when themovement was still campedat Zuccotti Park in LowerManhattan.

“It was raised with us thatofficers were being deployedfor Occupy Wall Street,” saidSquadron. “I’m not even surethat’s the case, but we needthe city to tell us.”

Squadron and others sent aletter to Deputy Mayor CasHolloway, who oversees theNYPD, and Deputy MayorRobert Steel, who oversees NY-

CHA, asking to “clarify” theextent to which police werereassigned. That letter wassent Dec. 13, and so far, saidSquadron, he has gotten zeroresponse from the city.

A downsized Occupy WallStreet now uses the Atrium onWall Street, but Squadron saidhe’s concerned that NYCHAcops may be placed at otherspecial events, such as parades.

Squadron said he’d also liketo know if NYCHA is reim-bursed if and when officers areremoved, since the organiza-tion pays for its police protec-tion. In 1994, the housing au-thority and the city made a dealwherein NYCHA pays the NYPDfor ongoing law enforcementservices at designated PoliceService Areas. Currently, NY-CHA pays more than $70 mil-lion a year to the NYPD forthese special police services atselect public housing spots.

Two city police officers wereinvolved in a shooting at about2 a.m. yesterday at the BaruchHouses, which is a PSA 4.

An NYPD officer narrowly es-caped grave injury early yester-day morning in a shootout onthe far Lower East Side, when aspare gun clip he was wearingdeflected a bullet meant forhim.

Police Officer ThomasRichards, while on patrol at theBaruch Houses, a public hous-ing complex on the Lower EastSide, stepped out of a policevan at 1:44 a.m. yesterday.That's when he was ap-proached by a man, Luis Mar-tinez, 25.

Martinez “muttered some-thing indecipherable, turnedtoward Officer Richards andfired numerous times,” accord-ing to the NYPD.

One of the rounds hit aspare ammunition magazineon Richards’ gun belt. Richardswore it slung around his lowerleft abdomen — and had it notbeen there, the bullet would

have struck him in the lowerstomach, said NYPD Commis-sioner Ray Kelly.

The bullet hit with suchforce that it bent the magazine,said police.

Richards then returned fire,and Martinez exchanged bul-lets with Richards and his part-ner, Officer Thomas Dunne, ashe fled the scene.

Martinez was hit in the up-per right leg; officers followedthe blood trail to an apartmenton Baruch Drive, where Mar-tinez was taken into custodyand to the hospital. He is nowin stable condition.

They found his 9mm Taurushandgun in the trash com-pactor at the same building,cops said.

Neither Dunne nor Richardswas injured in the shooting,and both have been releasedfrom the hospital.

"It was a very close call forOfficer Richards," Kelly said."The magazine may have wellsaved his life."

A disabled safety device causedan elevator to crush SuzanneHart just two minutes afterworkers stepped out of thesame lift and left the building,according to an explosive re-port released yesterday.

Mechanics had just been re-pairing elevators at the 285Madison Ave. office buildingwhere Hart, 41, was killed inDecember.

The 84-page assessmentfrom the Department of Build-ings and the city’s Departmentof Investigation reported asafety device was disabled onthe elevator that shot up andcrushed Hart.

While working on the eleva-tors, workers disabled the safe-ty device to allow mechanics toclimb on top of the elevatorcabs, investigators reported.This allowed the elevator to

move with its doors openwhile workers fixed problems.But the safety system was ap-parently not reactivated, inves-tigators concluded.

Investigators said MichaelHill, a mechanic with 28 yearsof experience, confirmed heused a wire to override the sys-tem. Hill told investigators he

removed the wire before theincident, taking it with him toanother job site. But investiga-tors said they found a wirenear the elevator’s control box.

When Hart stepped into theelevator, it suddenly rose withher partially inside. She wascrushed to death.

Workers “failed to followbasic safety procedures,” ac-cording to investigators.

“Their carelessness cost awoman her life,” DOB Commis-sioner Robert LiMandri said.

The DOB referred their find-ings to the Manhattan districtattorney’s office for potentialprosecution.

Successor toBuffett chosen,but it’s a secretWarren Buffett resisted pres-sure yesterday to identify hissuccessor as chief executiveofficer of Berkshire Hathaway,saying the person who hasbeen chosen does not evenknow it himself.

In his annual investor let-ter on Saturday, Buffett saidBerkshire’s board had identi-

fied someone who willreplace him as CEO when the81-year-old investor eventual-ly leaves the post.

But he did not identify thatperson in the letter; and in aCNBC interview yesterday, herejected suggestions that heshould. The public does notknow who will be the nextCEO of other major corpora-tions, he said, and there is adisadvantage to having a“crown prince” in place.REUTERS

Who’s next?

Buffett would say very littleabout the successor, otherthan that he is someone theboard has had in mind foryears and that the persondoes not know. He also said the heir appar-ent was likely to come fromthe ranks of dozens of chiefexecutive officers at Berk-shire operating companies.

A new study reveals that havinganxiety about potentially losingyour job could in fact increasethe chances it will happen.

This revelation is one of thekey findings in a report onworkplace insecurities pub-lished in the Spanish Journal ofPsychology.

The study also confirmedthat rising work insecurity fur-ther affects employees in theirpersonal life, such as family,health and finances. But whatcauses them to feel this fear?

Amparo Caballer, re-searcher at the Psychology De-partment at the University ofValencia and co-author of thestudy, told Metro that peopleon temporary work contracts,such as supermarket shelf-stockers, were the most appre-hensive about their job securi-ty; such workers fear theycould be easily replaced astheir tasks require little quali-fications. Freelancers, on thehand, often work on a tempo-rary basis and are less likely tobe negatively affected by theprospect of unemployment.

According to Caballer,knowing that you have otheroptions and possibilities is cru-cial in reducing this stress.

“Highly skilled profession-

als such as doctors or engineersfeel more confident in theircurrent position, as they knowthey have the ability to get an-other job,” she says.

The fear increases if em-ployees rely heavily on theirwages for basic needs, such asfood or housing.

“It depends on your respon-sibilities outside of work. If youare single and have savings,you will be less affected than ifyou are the sole breadwinnerwith a family to support,” sheexplains.

Employees will be moreproductive and are less likelyto feel threatened if they trustthe company they work for totreat them fairly.

DISCOVER THE POWER OF FOX

With a politicallycharged Sup -reme Court re-view this sum- mer, we can ex-

pect a renewed frenzy overObamacare. Like the darkprince, Beelzebub, the PatientProtection and Affordable CareAct is a creature known bymany names. And while thereis much about the polarizingnew law and its enactmentprocess that deserves criticism,many of the most importantand interesting parts of the lawremain poorly understood.

The exchange system — the

network of state-administeredmarkets that the act creates —is the central component ofObamacare, and it providessurprising insight into thelaw’s approach to state rights,consumer choice and regulat-ed markets.

The exchange system is likean imaginary supermarket thatonly sells health insurance. Tobe sold on the exchange, an in-surance plan must clearly dis-play its “nutritional facts” tomake comparison shoppingeasier. Each plan must alsoabide by basic quality standardsdesigned to ensure that everyplan sold on the exchange pro-vides an adequate range of cov-erage for the price. For instance,plans on the exchange mustspend at least 80 percent of pre-miums on health care, insteadof things like executive pay,marketing or corporate jets.The exchange excludes plansthat deny coverage for pre-exist-ing conditions and puts limitson plans that try to charge more

for riskier customers. In addition to federal regula-

tion, each state can adjust therules of its own exchange andoffer a state-level “public op-tion” to compete on the ex-change. With a federal blessing,states can even band together tocreate regional exchanges. Un-der the Act, a state can opt outof the exchange system entirely,if it can create an alternativehealth insurance program thatachieves equal or better cover-age for the same cost.

But why would any self-respecting insurancecompany want to playby these new rules andparticipate in the ex-

changes? Because only plans onthe exchange are eligible to re-ceive the new federal health in-surance subsidies.

For those who do not receivecoverage through their employ-er and spend more than 10 per-cent of their income on healthcare costs, Obamacare provides

a tax credit sufficient to bringthose costs below 10 percent —provided one’s health insuranceis purchased on the exchange.By 2019, $113 billion in subsi-dies will be up for grabs eachyear on the exchanges, accord-ing to CBO estimates. Only bycompeting with the other planson the exchange can insurancecompanies hope to get theirhands on those juicy federaldollars.

The exchange system is atrue capitalist’s solution to thehealth insurance problem. Itcreates a regulated market-place where for-profit, non-profit and public insuranceproviders alike compete onthe merits for customers whocan easily compare the costsand benefits of each plan. Andthe exchange system givesstates the flexibility to experi-ment with alternatives, whilechallenging them to competewith one another.

2 THE WORDMetro’s Dorothy Robinson shares her take on the world of gossip @dorothyatmetro [email protected]

It’s two days after the Oscarsand the world isn’t talkingabout how Billy Crystal didas a host (meh!), who won

(“The Artist,” a lot!), or who lost(Viola Davis, you were robbed!).Nope. The world is focused onone thing: Angelina Jolie’s leg.

Her awkward red carpetstance, in which she made sureher right leg was constantly ondisplay through the slit in herblack, velvet Atelier Versacegown, is a pose that haslaunched a thousand Internetmemes, from a Twitter handle— @AngiesRightLeg — whichis nearing 15,000 followerswith tweets like, “You have toadmit I’m one hell of a leg!” to aTumblr account entitled “An-gelina Jolie’ing,” where readerscan upload photos of them-selves showing off their ashythighs.

There’s no reason for whyshe stood like that, time andtime again. (My theory: Herbony leg was poking out tosniff around for a sandwich.)

But perhaps the best mockingof the leg came from “The De-scendants” co-writer Jim Rash,who hit the stage with Alexan-der Payne and Nat Faxon to ac-cept the award for Best Adapt-ed Screenplay. The look wasquickly imitated by Faxon, butthe scribes insist they weren’tmocking the actress. “She’ssupremely hot,” Faxon saidbackstage, while Rash wasquick to explain his actions: “Ijust saw her pose and Ithought, you know what, wehave exactly the same legs,” thewriter. “It was more like, ‘Oh,she’s standing, great, I’m goingto stand like that, too.’”

Rash better watch it.No one mocks AngelinaJolie in front of her faceand gets away with it.The last person whoprobably did that wasBilly Bob Thornton, andwe’re pretty sure he’scurrently working at aCracker Barrel in Pariss-apany, N.J.

Jolie and Pitt towork together againThey first fell for each other whilemaking a movie together, so itwas just a matter of time beforeBrad Pitt and Angelina Jolieteamed up again onscreen. Andnow the Hollywood power cou-ple is looking for another project.“We’re talking about it. We havean idea,” Jolie tells E! News,

adding that it won’t be a “Mr.and Mrs. Smith” sequel — or acomedy at all, most likely. “Wedon’t know how funny we are.”In fact, they might not be playinglovers in any way. “You neverknow what you want to see anactual couple do,” says Jolie.“Sometimes it’s better if they’renot a couple.”

Hathaway and Lohanhave something incommon?While most might not think so,Anne Hathaway insists she can

relate to a particularly troubledyoung starlet. “Lindsay Lohanand I have more in commonthan people think,” Hathawaytells the Sun. “We’ve all donethings we shouldn’t. I wastedtime doing self-destructivethings.” And exactly what sort ofthings are we talking abouthere? “I found you can onlydance on so many tabletops,”Hathaway says. “I got all that outof my system.”

Federline’sparenting tips

Kevin Federline is determined tokeep his two sons with BritneySpears grounded — even if itmeans working in fast food. “I’llhave them working at Micky D’s.That’s how we had to do it. Iworked at a car wash. I worked ata pizza place. Things like thatmade me,” Federline tellsAustralia’s Herald Sun. “Sean andJayden have missed out on somuch of that with me and theirmom being so busy all the time.Now we’ve both agreed that thisis it, they are going to be atschool and learn what it’s like tobe part of society as kids.”

Giorgio Armani

1The creased Bermuda shortscreated for Emporio Armani

popped up again here. And likewith his secondary line, the de-signer made a similar case forhow versatile the organza knee-length trousers can be (wearthem with tailored jackets forthe office and underneath skirtsfor evening). But even withinthe context of the more sophis-ticated main line, the shortswere a conceptual challengesimply because the length

and higher waist line will addpounds to anyone whose

legs aren’t long enough.The collection could haveused more of his chic, an-drogynous suits with longtrousers that opened theshow.

Roberto Cavalli

2With the Oscars overlapping,Milan has been surprisingly

light on celebrities this week. ButRoberto Cavalli made up for it byclosing out Italy’s shows withnone other than one of fashion’sstarriest models, NaomiCampbell. It was an appropriateending for a show filled withflamboyantly opulent clothes forthe biggest divas — fur-trimmedT-shirts over leggy python bellbottoms, massive fur ball gownskirts with graphic silk blouses

and sweeping animal-print, chif-fon dresses under tough leatherjackets. Each look was richer andmore dramatic than the next.

Jil Sander

3“You can never leave withoutleaving a piece of you,” Billy

Corgan sang as the modelswalked. It’s a testament to howRaf Simons made the label hisown that the overall sadnessabout his leaving Jil Sanderseemed to overshadow any buzzor excitement about the founderreturning to her namesake brand.News that the Autumn/Winter ’12collection would be Simons’ lastinstantly made the show theweek’s hottest ticket. And after-ward, people talked about it withan “I was there” type of reverenceusually reserved for farewell con-certs by big rock bands. The senti-

mentality of it all could have easi-ly eclipsed the clothes, if theyweren’t so sublime. For one,Simons worked with color, specifi-cally romantic shades of red andsoft pastels that gave some much-needed contrast to all the moodyblack, charcoal and wine we’veseen this week. He also continuedthe outerwear story that has beendominating Milan, but with alighter, more elegant touch —and thankfully not a dip-dyed fursleeve in sight. His coats andcorseted dresses came in volumi-nous, vaguely mid-centuryshapes, and seemed to be an evo-lution from the full skirts anddresses he showed for spring. Theclothes were a continuation andyet, still a definitive end — at leastfor the house of Jil Sander. In themeantime, we can hope therumors of his taking over thereins at Christian Dior are true.

When Queens native ChrisFaraone moved to Boston in2004, he arrived as an outspo-ken journalist inspired by thevoices of politically mindedhip-hop artists like Chuck Dand Talib Kweli. Now 32 and aprominent staff writer at theBoston Phoenix (where thiswriter also contributes),Faraone is thick in the fray ofthe very political issues that in-spired some of his idols — fair-ness, social justice and othercore virtues of the OccupyMovement, which helped in-form his debut book, “99Nights with the 99 Percent.”

“Writing about political mu-

sic was an ideal trainingground for my investigative ca-reer,” he says. “Everything Ineed to know I learned fromPublic Enemy.”

In “99 Nights,” Faraonechronicles his multi-city voyagethrough the Occupy move-ment, from its inception atOccupy Wall Street on Sept. 17,2011, to an arbitrary point 99days later on Christmas Day,where he reminds us that themovement is just beginning.Keeping his narrative personal,Faraone pays special attentionto the milestones of the OccupyBoston Movement — which herefers to as a “franchise” — in-

cluding its continued work andinfluence since its eviction.

An incisive and colorfulwriter, Faraone throws himselffull-bore into the book, and “99Nights” finds its strength in un-filtered accounts of interac-tions with personalities on allsides of the Occupy table.

“Let people write me off ifthey want, but this is a personalbook,” says Faraone. “I was ac-tually in there and seeing whatsome of the defining character-istics are at all the camps acrossthe country.”

That’s exactly what Faraoneshows readers, from the per-formance art antics of the New

York protests to the somber sol-idarity of Black Panthers andunion workers marching sideby side in Oakland.

“Maybe Occupy would havefizzled out a little bit, but not inthis political climate,” saysFaraone, hinting at the upcom-ing conventions and G8/Natosummits that are going to oc-cur in 2012.

He says in Boston there’s stillroom to get involved, andhopes that other cities willkeep the dialogue going: “It’s ahealthy movement.”

Metro cameoOn page 44 of “99 Nights,”Faraone credits Metro Bos-ton reporter Steve Annearwith breaking the Occupystory in Boston. In thisexcerpt, he has arrived at thesecond day of protests.

“Roughly 300 showed —with a number of reportersalso on the scene — despitethe event having beenannounced less than a dayahead of time (Steve Annearbroke the story in the BostonMetro).”

Nathan Englander’s stories are universal. “I get really sensitive when people ask me if I’m a Jewish writer and of course it’s not even insensitive, I just feel like I’m always explaining it,” he says. “I’m an American. Yes, there are Jews in my book. They’re Americans, too. I’m a writer of stories.”

Author NathanEnglander argues thatfiction is truer thantruth. Then it, too,

must have consequences. In hiscompelling short story collec-tion, “What We Talk AboutWhen We Talk About AnneFrank,” characters make con-troversial judgments that oftendefy social, moral and legalcontracts. Whether taking con-trol of their own lives or takingjustice into their own hands,his characters’ loaded choicesask us to see just how gray ourworld is. Englander’s bitter-sweet tales of forgiving — andnot forgiving — but never for-getting open a dialogue. Westart one with him.

There’s something so raw aboutyour stories that seemingly onlyfirst-hand knowledge caninvoke. What inspired “FreeFruit for Young Widows” and“Sister Hills,” both which takeplace far from where you live?My aesthetic is really simple —my obligation is to the story. Idon’t sound shy but what I amis private, and distant worldslet me be as intimate and rawas I need to be. I was at a confer-ence with the Israeli writerEtgar Keret and he told me apersonal story about his fatherwho was a Warsaw Ghetto sur-vivor. I asked him, “Can I ad-dress your story as a story?”And he said: “Take it, it’syours.” I wanted to do it justice[in “Free Fruit for YoungWidows”]. And “Sister Hills”?I’m always thinking aboutIsrael. I wanted to write thewhole history of the West Bankcompressed into a short story.More than anything I’ve everwritten, it was so overwhelm-ing that I didn’t even knowwhat I had. You have to have re-spect for the work you’re do-ing. It’s not about polemics orwhat I feel about politics, it’sabout obligations to the story. Is it daunting to approachwriting such polemic themesin the short form, which isrelatively restrictive in scope? I have a play opening in the fallin New York. The play is so suf-focating. You’re limited byspace; you’re limited by time. ....

Even dialogue — you have tolearn how to make it live in thisother world. I felt suffocated un-til I understood that whatyou’re doing is framing. Settingthat limit allows a person to ex-ecute. When you put some-thing out into the world withyour name of it, you shouldwant to stand by it for the restof your life. So I don’t under-stand people wanting to rushtheir work. It should go out inthe form that it needs to be,however long that takes. I knowit’s torturous at the same time,but writing is the joyful part —even if it causes you to bangyour head against the wall.There’s an underlyingtenderness in your stories. Isthere a limit to compassion? [Writing fiction] is a moral act.How can you write a storythat’s universal if you don’t un-derstand what good and whatevil means? I’m haunted thatthere’s no black-and-whiteworld and that there’s so muchinjustice. I always get in troublewhen people play that game,“Can you imagine that”?Because I can imagine any-thing. The point of writing isexploring these questions. Iwould hope there’s no limit tocompassion, but if you wantme to explore otherwise, I willlist scenarios. It’s case-by-case,moment-by-moment.

For Nathan Englander, there are more than two sides to every short story

If you go

Nathan EnglanderWednesday, March 7, 7 p.m.BookCourt163 Court Street, Brooklynwww.bookcourt.com

A common thread in the stories is the boiling point:what causes us to breakdown and expose ourrepressed emotions. Do you experience these points inyour writing process? “Sister Hills” was the last sto-ry in the book, and the pres-sure was on. I was sittingthere all day Friday, all daySaturday, all day Sunday.Then it was Monday nightand I’d put in one of those12-hour days where you’rejust writing up to a new part,then not engaging and thenyou just know. I was suddenlywriting the rest of the story.That sums up the process. Ibuilt the whole world, sothere’s nobody else whocould know how it works butme. How can I know onMonday what I didn’t knowon Friday? Those pivot pointsare built into the work, but Ithink they’re built into life.

The “Waldo” in “Call meWaldo” at the June Hav-oc Theatre is none otherthan Ralph Waldo Emer-

son, whom Lee (MatthewBoston), an electrician’s assis-tant, has taken to channelingfrom time to time. At first hisunexplained, seemingly spon-taneous outpourings befuddlehis boss, Gus (Brian Dykstra),and wife, Sarah (Rita Rehn).But somehow Emerson’s meta-physical musings eventuallyfree them — and throughthem, Sarah’s friend, Cynthia(Jennifer Dorr White) — to livelife more fully.

Oddly, “Waldo” is at itsweakest when it’s most fo-cused on its central conceit.When Lee is spouting Emer-sonese, the play seems forcedand a little leaden. But play-wright Rob Ackerman has sur-rounded Lee with a trio of lik-able characters whose evolu-tion makes for enjoyable, iflightweight, fare.

Foul-mouthed Gus is per-haps a little overdone in theprofanity department, butDykstra’s energy in the role is

contagious and you can’t helpbut like the guy. Rehn’s Sarahis down-to-earth but not with-out depth or neurosis. Cynthiais the biggest surprise, func-tioning as a commentator toSarah through most of theshow, then stepping out of thebackground and blossoming atthe end. Dorr White relishesthe transformation.

And then there’s Lee, frontand center, a catalyst withoutconvincing catharsis. Boston issolid but Lee’s existential angstnever quite rings true. It’s easyto get swept up in the breezycharm of “Call Me Waldo,” butit leaves you with a slightly hol-low feeling.

Every parent dreads thethought that his or herchild is being bullied,but not every parent un-

derstands what to do or evenhow to reach out to a child tofind out. First, argues PatriciaEvans, author of “Victory OverVerbal Abuse: A Healing Guideto Renewing Your Spirit and Re-claiming Your Life,” you needto watch for the warning signs.

“What you need to do is ob-serve your children,” Evanssays. She advises that youwatch your children for behav-ior that seems out of the ordi-nary: If they’re more depressedlately, if they don’t want to goto school or if they’re closingtheir Facebook page when youwalk by, for example.

When you decide to broachthe subject, do so gently. Evanssuggested that parents talk “af-ter dinner, [and] just bring it up.‘Do you notice any kids atschool being bullied? Has any-body ever tried to put you

down or call you names atschool? Is there anything likethat going on?’ Bring it out inthe open,” she says.

If you notice the tauntingtaking a turn for the worse,don’t just sit back and assumethat kids will be kids. Evans rec-ommends getting involved.

“Talk to teachers,” advisesEvans. “Talk to the principal.[See if they can] have a ‘no bul-lying, zero tolerance for bully-ing at this school’ [policy]. Youreally have to have the adminis-tration involved and the kidshave to be in student counsel-ing. You can’t just shame themin front of the school.”

Your child might be embar-rassed to learn you’re takingthe issue up with the school,but there are ways to makesure he or she is protected.Evans recommends asking forconfidentiality when doing so,and giving the following scriptto your child: “There are somechildren with problems at your

school, so I am going to talk topeople who can establish a planto help stop the bullying.”

Evans also suggests that chil-dren know how to defendthemselves — nonviolently —when facing a bully.

She says to tell your kids: “Ifsomeone says something meanto you, look them in the eye —you might even point your fin-ger at them — [and say] ‘That’swhat YOU say.’”

Kids, she adds, should alsoknow where to turn for help.“[Have them] think of five peo-ple that they could go to if theywere being bullied.”

How tohelp when your childis bullied

Notice a change in your kid’sbehavior? It could be a warningsign something’s wrong at school

A bully’s mind

For bullies to become bullies,they have most likelyexperienced bullying athome from an older siblingor even a parent.

“People who bully are verydisconnected inside,” Evans

says. “Theydon’t feelcentered,they don’tfeel OK andthey don’tfeel like theycan makefriends.”

The Internet and bullyingThe advent of technologyhas led to a new kind ofbullying: abuse over theWeb, on sites likeFacebook, MySpace andTwitter.

Evans advises kids to“keep your social mediaprivate” and “reportabuse.” And let your status-es do the talking: “Keep astatement on yourFacebook page: When peo-ple talk about peoplebehind their back, they areusually lying.”KIRSTY STEWART

Taking periodic walksup and down the aisle is oneremedy, but there are other al-ternatives, like yoga poses. Asun salutation in the aisle maynot be appreciated, so trythese less space-consumingmoves. Seated twist: Place onehand on the opposite kneeand twist your torso towardthat hand. Hold for 30 sec-onds, then switch. Hip stretch:Cross one leg over the otherand lean forward, folding overyour legs. Hold, then switchlegs and repeat.

Stay hydratedWhile flying, it’s best to avoiddrinks that will dehydrate you.The list includes all of our fa-vorite vices, from alcoholic bev-erages to caffeinated sodas andcoffee. Try drinking water orjuice instead, and don’t rely on

the airline to provide enoughduring your flight. It’s always agood idea to bring a water bot-tle with you, filling it up at awater fountain before youboard the plane. This alterna-tive is better than buying bot-tled water at the airport — notonly for environmental rea-sons, but because you’ll want tostay hydrated on your trip too,whether you’re spending timeon the beach or gallivantingaround a big city.

Get restImprove your mood and boostyour immune system by stay-ing as well-rested as possiblebefore, during and after yourtrip. To help aid in-flight sleep,pack your own travel pillowand blanket. A great set ofnoise-cancelling headphonesand an eye-pillow are also rec-ommended. And if all else fails,a glass of warm milk is alwaysan option.

Toney Douglas:Remember whenToney Douglasplayed for theKnicks? What?

He’s still on the roster? OK,so it’s not really his faulthe’s not a point guard. Hejust doesn’t fit on thisteam anywhere.

Baron Davis:This gradeshould be an In-complete so far,but he could play

a crucial role on this team.He’s the one and only realpoint guard besides Jere-my Lin. He needs to be bet-ter than what he’s shown.

Iman Shumpert:The early seasonrookie surge rolewas manned byShumpert this

year instead of Fields. Hisdefense has beenoutstanding (2 spg) andhe’s contributing 10.3points per game also.

Tyson Chandler:Fans were expect-ing a defensivestalwart and theygot it. He’s a big

reason the defense is sev-enth in the East in pointsallowed. His 11.7 ppg and9.5 rpg are both improve-ments from last year.

Mike D’Antoni:How do you gradea coach who wason the brink of be-ing fired Feb. 4

and is now running a teamwith, hypothetically, theperfect point guard and a9-3 record since he tookover? Well, the best wecan do is split it down themiddle. D’Antoni’s job issaved as long as Lin keepsthe team winning. And aslong as they make theplayoffs. If they lose in thefirst round of the playoffs,his grade will teeter into Dterritory and he will likelybe fired. METRO

Landry Fields:He’s benefitedmore from Linthan justabout anyone.

Since Lin’s been startinghe’s averaging 11 pointsand 6.4 rebounds pergame. Those are the num-bers he showed as a rook-ie starting out.

CarmeloAnthony:Before JeremyLin appeared onthe scene, Melo

was dominating the balland scoring lots of points.But he’s shooting under 40percent and still needs tomesh with Lin. Their chem-istry will determine a lot.

Amar’eStoudemire:His statistics(17.5 ppg, 8rpg) don’t tell

the real story. As of latehe’s been short of the su-perstar he was expected tobe. Since returning Feb.14, he’s averaging 15.1ppg and 7.4 rpg.

Jeremy Lin:What othergrade could wegive Lin? Wedon’t need to re-

hash the underdog story.On the court he’s been thepoint guard D’Antoni’s sys-tem needed. The secondhalf of the year will show ifhe’s anything more.

Henrik Lundqvist had yet another dominating performance against the Devils last night.

GETTY IMAGES

Rangers passon Nash dealFor the second-straight year,Rangers general managerGlen Sather was presentedwith a take-it-or-leave-itproposition for a superlativetalent. He did the samething he did last year withBrad Richards. He passed.

Brandon Dubinsky willremain a New York Rangerfor the rest of the 2011-12

season as Sather and Colum-bus GM Scott Howson couldnot agree on the terms of amuch-rumored megadealthat would have broughtRick Nash to Broadway.

“I know this team wantsme and I know how much Iwant to be here,” Dubinskysaid after the Rangers’ earlyskate at the Garden yester-day.

Dubinsky’s name hadbeen linked with Nash’ssince the proposed deal be-

came public knowledge.Now, he can play muchmore relaxed. METRO/DG

Henrik the GreatGoaltender continues to make case for Hart TrophyEarns 2-0 shutout of Devils Hagelin scores winner

The Rangers players imploredmanagement not to break up ateam that entered the day withthe best record in the EasternConference. They said RickNash — or anyone else thatmanagement may have hadtheir eye on — was unneces-sary.

The Rangers began theprocess of proving their wordstrue last night with a 2-0 winover the Devils at the Garden.The Rangers are 2-1-1 againstthe Devils this season with twogames remaining.

There wasn’t much in termsof offense — benefitting two ofthe NHL’s premier defensive-oriented clubs.

The teams combined for 28shots total, 15 for the Rangersand 13 for the Devils. The 13shots against is a season lowfor the Rangers. The previouslow was 17 allowed againstTampa Bay in a 4-3 win on

Feb. 9.The game-winning goal

came off the stick of CarlHagelin at 16:59 of the first pe-riod. Martin Brodeur failed toclear the puck from the defen-sive zone and the Rangers wereable to cycle and forecheck forone of the few times in the

match. Hagelin slipped behindMark Fayne at the top of thecrease and snapped a quickone-timer over New Jersey’sHall-of-Famer to be.

Hagelin assisted on RyanCallahan’s empty-net goal at18:54 in the third period.

If the first period was testa-ment to the skill the leaguewants to highlight, then thesecond was an ode to the ha-tred the franchises share. Play-ers on both sides exchangedheadlocks after whistles. Bran-don Prust and Eric Boultonpaired off in a long bout be-hind the Devils goal line at16:52. David Clarkson andMike Rupp were even assessedunsportsmanlike conductpenalties at 17:00 for exchang-ing words in the faceoff circlebefore the puck was dropped.
