Recession spurs unemployed to seek dream jobs
BY LUCY COHEN [email protected]
They say when one door closes, another opens. And that’s happening for many of the city’s unemployed.
Scores of New Yorkers are pursuing dream jobs they might never have sought out if not for the recession.
“Now many people are trying to figure out exactly what they really want to do,” said Linda Stone, a New York University career counselor.
Allison Hemming, presi-dent of talent agency The Hired Guns, agreed: “I be-lieve the other side of this recession is what I’m term-ing the New Individualism Movement.
“People are looking to be entrepreneurs,” she said.
We spoke with three New Yorkers who are reap-ing the benefits of career change.
Andrea Lala 34, investment banking at Barclays to holistic health and nutrition
“I’ve been in this city working really hard for the last 12 years, and the lifestyle definitely caught up with me,” said Andrea Lala.
So when she was laid off from Barclays in June, she was glad that she had enrolled in the Institute for Integrative Nutrition
at Lincoln Center last De-cember.
Lala wants to combine her business background with her passion for nutri-tion to launch her own business, eventually of-fering corporate wellness programs.
Lala, who has savings and her fiance’s financial support, said she took a 75 percent salary cut. “But it feels so different to get up every day and feel passion-ate about what you do.”
Karen Seiger44, from marketing at American Express to guidebook author
After her marketing job moved overseas in 2007,
Karen Seiger and her hus-band vacationed in Paris. They used a shopping book titled “Markets of Paris” as a guide.
Seiger had a lways enjoyed writing, so she pitched a Big Apple version of the book to publisher
The Little Bookroom.“The Markets of New
York” is scheduled to be released in 2010.
“The best thing is being able to do things on my own terms,” Seiger said. “The flip side is having to be very disciplined.”
Jack Bernowitz44, Lehman Brothers trader to pastry chef
When Jack Bernowitz sensed last fall that he might get laid off from Lehman Brothers after 20 years, he enrolled in the Institute of Culinary Edu-cation in Manhattan.
When he got his pink slip in January, he was already on his way to fulfilling a lifelong passion. Bernow-itz is honing his skills as a pastry chef at Four Food Studio on Long Island.
“A trader has to work under pressure and con-stantly multitask at a hectic pace. Those skills definitely help me in the culinary world,” he said.
MAKING A CAREER CHANGE WORK FOR YOU
■ Recognize that change is a process and that the pace of change varies.
■ Understand why you feel unfulfilled in your current job.
■ Assess your skills and achievements and figure out what you want to continue to develop.
■ Research and conduct informational interviews. Network.
■ Recognize that everyone has personal barriers and con-straints in changing careers.
■ Develop short- and long-term goals with realistic objectives based on the first five steps.

The body of a missing Manhattan cleaning wom-an was discovered kneel-ing, bound and gagged, in an office-building air duct, her gold crucifix caught in the duct tape around her mouth, police said yesterday.
Investigators are unsure if the cross was placed there intentionally or if its chain was inadvertently caught in the tape during the brutal killing of Eridania Rodri-guez, 46, an Inwood resident and mother of three. The medical examiner’s office
officially ruled the death a homicide yes-terday.
The woman d i e d f r o m asphyxia, said medical examiner’s
office spokeswoman Ellen Borakove.
The medical examiner’s office had not officially iden-tified the body yesterday evening, but police believe it was that of Rodriguez, who was last seen at work at 2 Rector St. in the Financial District on Tuesday night.
Investigators found the body Saturday on the 12th floor of the building.
Police have questioned several people but have not identified a suspect. One of those questioned, Joseph Pabon, 26, is an elevator operator in the building who had a key to the 12th floor, which has restricted access, according to the New York Post.
He has denied involve-ment in the slaying and was released by police question-ing him when he asked for a lawyer.

Bronx native Sonia Soto-mayor is expected to cruise to a seat on the Supreme Court, but the explosive topics of race and bias will likely provide their share of drama at her Senate con-firmation hearings, which kick off today.
Republican senators yes-terday vowed to grill Soto-mayor over her comments that a “wise Latina” might make a better decision in a case than a white man.
“She has criticized the idea that a woman and a man would reach the same result,” said Sen. Jeff Ses-sions (R-Ala.), the ranking Republican on the com-mittee, on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “That’s philosophi-cally incompatible with the American system.”
Members of the the Sen-ate Judiciary Committee will also press Sotomayor,
55, for her views on social issues from affirmative ac-tion to abortion.
Still, few predicted her nomination would stall.
In the seven weeks since Sotomayor, an appeals court judge who grew up in New York City, was tapped to be the first Latina on the
high court, opponents have highlighted her comments about race, accusing her of bias. But that hasn’t damp-ened the enthusiasm of sup-porters in her hometown.
“She had one misstep, saying she has a better opinion than a white male,” said Dave Percoskie, 61, of
Manhattan. “I think that was out of context.”
Julian Zelizer, a Princeton history professor, predicted that GOP senators will raise the issue but will tread lightly, fearing a backlash from Hispanic voters.

Son takes father’s spot at pulpit of B’klyn churchThe son of the late Grammy nominated gospel singer Timothy Wright was installed as pastor of his father’s Brook-lyn church yesterday. David Wright, 30, became leader of the Grace Tabernacle Christian Center Church of God in Christ during a service. The Rev. Tim-othy Wright died in April. He was paralyzed from the neck down following a July 2008 car crash in Pennsylvania that killed his wife and grandson.

A spokeswoman for the New York Democrat said yesterday that he is engaged to Huma Abe-din, a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. The spokeswoman said the 44-year-old Weiner proposed to Abedin on May 23. No wed-ding date has been set. (AP)
Woman charged with leaving kids in car at mallA Brooklyn woman was arrested at the Roosevelt Field Mall on Long Island after she left three children — including a 9 months old — alone in her car for at least 25 minutes, police said yesterday. Nicola Daley, 37, was arrested on charges of endangering the welfare of a child and faces up to a year in prison if convicted.
Shooters fire on victim all the way to the hospital Shooters determined to kill a man they had shot at a Brook-lyn house party yesterday followed him to the hospital, where they continued firing at him as he pulled up to the emergency room, leaving him in critical condition, police said. The 32-year-old man was one of three people shot at the party in Canarsie. The other two were a 17-year-old who was killed and a 22-year-old in stable condition with a wound to his left leg, police said. (NEWSDAY)

■ Mayor Michael Bloomberg: Has criticized the GOP for “baseless personal attacks” on her and is set to testify in her defense against other Republican criticisms.
AGAINST■ Sen. Jeff Sessions

Sinking landmark stalling subway work BY HEATHER [email protected]
The “Peace Pentagon” isn’t making the MTA feel very groovy.
The home of one of the country’s oldest anti-war groups is sinking into the earth — exactly where NYC Transit is overhauling the Bleecker Street station. Scaffolding propping up the landmark has forced the MTA to delay part of the $133 million project by two years. Work should have
started in the area already, but now it won’t get going until January 2011.
The construction has caused major headaches for stores located along Lafayette Street.
“I have customers who call and ask if we are still open,” said Jack Wu, owner of the Adore Floral store, located next to the digging. “They are trying to modernize the system, but it’s killing me.”
Last year, the MTA started ripping up Lafayette to build a long-awaited transfer be-tween the uptown No. 6 and the B, D, F and V lines.
But contractors couldn’t proceed with work at the northeast corner of Bleecker Street and Lafayette Avenue because the scaffolding put up in 2007 outside the A.J. Muste Memorial Institute is right where they need to dig. The institute, a foundation sponsoring liberal causes, owns the three-story brick building.
■ Has provided low-cost rent to grassroots groups and the A.J. Muste Memorial Institute for decades.
■ One of the country’s largest demonstrations, the 1982
anti-nuclear demonstration in Central Park, was organized there.
■ A.J. Muste was an anti-war activist and pastor who men-tored Martin Luther King Jr.

Palin sets sights on national stage
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is staying in the game.
Palin said she plans to jump back into the national scrum — and build a right-of-center coalition — when she leaves office at the end of the month.
The former GOP vice presidential nom-inee said she aims to write a book and campaign for political candidates from coast to coast — even Democrats who share her views on limited govern-ment, national defense and
energy independence.“I will go around the coun-
try on behalf of candidates who believe in the right things, regard-less of their party label or affiliation,” she said during an interview published yesterday in The Washington Times.

CIA muzzling broke law?Leading Democrats are
pushing for twin investiga-tions into Bush-era torture and anti-terrorism policies.
Two senators, including the head of the intelligence committee, suggested yesterday that the prior administration broke the law by concealing a CIA counterterrorism program from Congress.
The assertion that former Vice President Dick Cheney ordered the concealment came amid word that At-torney General Eric Holder is contemplating opening a criminal probe of possible CIA torture.
A move to appoint a crim-inal prosecutor is certain to stir partisan bickering that could prove a distraction
to Obama’s efforts to push ambitious health care and energy reform. Obama has repeatedly expressed re-luctance to probing alleged Bush-era abuses.
The Bush administra-tion’s failure to notify Congress about the eight-year-old counterterrorism program “is a big problem, because the law is very
clear,” said Senate Intel-ligence Committee chair-woman Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.). “We were kept in the dark. That’s something that should never, ever hap-
pen again,” she added.Congress should investi-
gate the secrecy because “it could be illegal,” said Demo-cratic Sen. Dick Durbin, of Illinois. (AP)
Dem pol says Cheney kept U.S. ‘in dark’
Dianne Feinstein, left, and Dick Durbin, right, suggested Dick Cheney, center, engaged in illegal practices.
Police and prison guards aided by search dogs yesterday hunted for two convicted killers and a third man who escaped the maximum-security Indiana State Prison, apparently through underground tun-nels and pipes.
All three were consid-
ered dangerous, and prison officials used a telephone notification system to send alerts to nearby residents.
Authorities have identi-fied the men as Charles Smith, 48, and Mark Booher, 46, both of New Castle, and Lance Battreal, 45, of Rock-port. (AP)

Canadian boxer’s wife held in his slayingThe wife of former box-
ing champion Arturo Gatti, 37, was detained as a sus-pect by Brazilian authori-ties yesterday after his death at a seaside resort.
Police said 23-year-old Amanda Rodrigues was taken into custody after contradictions in her in-
terrogation. Gatti’s body was found Saturday in a hotel room in northeast-ern Brazil.
The former junior wel-terweight champion was apparently strangled with the strap of a purse, found at the scene with blood stains, said Milena Sarai-
va, a Pernambuco police spokeswoman. She said that the Canadian athlete also had a head injury.
Saraiva said authorities were preparing to pres-ent a formal accusation against Rodrigues, who denied being involved in her husband’s death. (AP)
Ghana trip boosts Bam
P r e s i d e n t B a r a c k Obama’s pledge over the weekend to assist African countries committed to democracy won him praise from Ghana, the last stop of his six-day trip abroad.
“Obama has warmed the ties between [our] coun-tries,” said Jasmine Mkiu-mah, a 19-year-old student in Accra, the Ghanaian capital. “I hope there are more visitors.”
After a week of difficult talks with world leaders in Russia and Italy, Obama re-turned to the U.S. yesterday to face an ever-more-painful recession and fights over health care and energy.
His reception in Ghana on Saturday, however, seemed to be a pleasant break. Afri-
cans were overjoyed at the visit of America’s first black president.
Obama encouraged eco-friendly energy solutions, strong health care systems and peaceful resolutions to conflict, saying “Africa’s future is up to Africa.”
“What Obama said makes sense to Africans,” said Godwin Omebo, 32, of Ac-cra. “I hope Obama says that to every [African] head of state.”
Ghanaians had been preparing for Obama for months: Vendors have been selling Obama shirts, lo-cal musician Blakk Rasta created an Obama song for radio play, and billboards bearing his picture were erected. (AP/AMNY)

Surf’s up (and so is business)BY SHAYNDI RAICE Special to amNewYork
Most people don’t think of New York City as a hot spot for surfing.
But since the city legalized the sport at two beaches in the Rockaways in 2004, the
area has increas-ingly become a surfers’ haven. And local
shops that cater to surfers are finding the recession is actually boosting business.
After all, why travel to Malibu when waves await at the end of the A line?
“One of my fr iends described us as recession-proof,” said Steve Stathis,
59, owner of Boarders Surf Shop near Beach 90 in Rock-away Beach. “People can still enjoy reasonably priced leisure activities. Just for a day out, you can come down here and rent a surfboard for $25 for four hours.”
Stathis said that at the end of the winter, his busi-ness was down 40 percent. But that didn’t deter him from ordering the usual amount of merchandise for the summer, including more surfboards to rent.
His calculation was simple: Surf ing locally would become a cheap and popular option in recession-ary times. “We think we hit the nail on the head,” he said. “We’re seeing people in here that we’ve never seen before.”
Business this summer was slow in June, but is now on pace with past summers, Stathis said.
Bobby Vaughn, 34, said
his business has benefited from city surfers sticking closer to home. In April, he opened up a surf shop, FTW, which sells higher-end gear.
He does not rent equipment and his surfboards start at about $600 apiece.
He said that so far busi-ness is brisk.
“People can’t afford to go to other places,” he said. “A lot more people are staying local.”
Surfers at the beach last week shared those senti-ments.
“Here, beaches are free. You only have to a buy a board once and you have it for life,” said Michael Ter-riberry, 30, of Maspeth.
Another sur fer, L iz Henry, 23, of Brooklyn, was out with friends on a warm day.
“I can go as often as I want to go to the beach,” Henry said. “I can’t afford to go somewhere else.”
SMALL BUSINESS

Investors are about to get some of the economic data they’ve been crav-ing — from the country’s big corporations.
Earnings reports from the April-June quarter will begin flowing in this week, helping investors answer questions about how soon the economy will start growing. With the economy not gaining momentum after some early signs of recovery, investors are worried that they bet too soon on a rebound during the market’s spring rally.
No one expects any obvious signals, such as a sudden pop in profits. Instead, investors will pore over companies’ forecasts. (AP)

Channing Tatum marries his ‘Step Up’ co-star
“Step Up” love-birds Channing Tatum, 29, and Jenna Dewan, 28, tied the knot this past weekend at the Church Estates Vineyards in
Malibu, Calif., the same place Fergie and Josh Duhamel wed this year, Us Weekly reported.
Mazel what? Anna: Don’t speak Yiddish to me!Don’t mistake Anna Kournik-ova for a Jew. When a photog-rapher recently said the con-gratulatory phrase “mazel tov” to the tennis player about her rumored engagement to her boyfriend, Enrique Iglesias, Kournikova snapped back, “I am not Jewish — can’t you see my cross?” according to The Washington Times.
Bits O’ Buzz
Bernard Madoff hasn’t just inspired ex-investors to head to the bar; he’s in-spired a top NYC mixologist to whip up a new cocktail: The Madoff 150.
This past Saturday night at the Upper West Side’s Hudson River Cafe, a Mad-off scam victim asked mix-ologist Alex Ott to concoct something powerful to
“ease his pain,” Ott said. Ott’s solution: The Ma-
doff 150 — named for the number of years Madoff will spend behind bars — which is made of Grand
Marnier, tequila, crushed pineapple, cilantro, ginger and lime juice ($5/glass).
“One will forget his losses after imbibing this cocktail,” Ott said.

Poor Kim Kardashian. The eldest Kardashian
gal was teary-eyed in Cali-fornia this summer while her two sisters, Kourtney and Khloe, shot their up-coming series, “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami.”
“At first I thougt I was looking forward to it but I really did miss them,” she told us at the Three-O Bub-ble Vodka launch party at the SoHo club Greenhouse.
The only plus side to having her s isters gone? “It was a lot quieter without them.”

Jon plus date in France
Well, that was fast.Less than a month
after Kate Gosselin filed for divorce, Jon
Gosselin was spotted vacationing with a new girlfriend on the French Riviera.
The “Jon & Kate Plus 8” star and his gal pal, Hai-
ley Glassman, 22, were photographed gallavant-ing around and holiding hands in St.-Tropez this
past weekend. And one of the couple’s
stops shouldn’t be a sur-prise to anyone keeping an eye on Jon’s (unfor-tunate) fashion choices as of late. The two spent time on Ed Hardy design-er Christian Audigier’s yacht.
That visit may not have been just a social one. Ac-cording to TMZ.com, Jon, 32, and Audigier were discussing a business deal.

A global fashion adventureBY MICHELLE THOMAS
The Washington Post
Fashion loves a good travel tale.
Designers often find inspiration around the world, from India’s saris and bejeweled bracelets to Africa’s pr int fabrics and
carved jewelry, What you’ll find
this year is a gypsy-inspired explosion of worldly inf luences and a mishmash of patterns, colors, textures and layers.
“It’s not necessar-
ily hippie at all, but it is referencing cultures — and if the references are piled up in a cool way, then it’s glamorous,” said Julia Chaplin, whose book “Gypset Style” explores gypsy/jet set culture.
To nail the look, watch for swirling paisleys, intricate embroidery, bright hues and gauzy silks. In the accessories department, mix metal-lics and stack bangles.
“It’s almost a conver-sation about different places you’ve visited and things you’ve observed,” she said. “Like a wear-able travelogue.”

David Yates, the direc-tor of “Harry Potter and
the Half-Blood Prince,” has a lot of sympathy for one of the film’s stars.
Rupert Grint, who portrays t h e f l a m e -haired Potter
pal Ron Weasley, spent hours on his broom while filming tricky scenes of Quidditch, the wizard sport.
TODAY ON TELEVISION
■ Teddy: In His Own Words (9 p.m., HBO) — Fans of Sen.
Edward Kenne-dy will love this documentary film; detractors will shrug it off, like one of those candidate profiles you see
during conventions. ■ The Wendy Williams Show (10 a.m., WNYW/5; 10 p.m., WWOR/9) — Premiere: The New York based, sharp-tongued radio host joins the syndicated TV talk-show wars. Her first guest: Vanessa Williams (no relation).■ Wild Pacific (8 p.m., Discov-ery) — The fragile ecosystem of the Pacific is constantly threatened by climate change, overfishing and man’s increas-ing influence.■ The Closer (9 p.m., TNT) — When a popular online “hookup king” is shot to death, a police impersonator causes the case to go awry.
The ‘Prince’ of darknessDavid Yates dishes on the latest ‘Potter’
“Poor Rupert Grint had to sit on this broom with a bicycle seat that seriously damaged his chances of having children in later life,” Yates laughed. “And
he did it so patiently and so gracefully.”
Dark timesGames aside, “Half-Blood
Prince,” the sixth install-
ment of the blockbuster series premiering Wednes-day at midnight, continues the story of Harry Potter, an orphaned teen who struggles in an ever-dark-
ening magical world. Despite all of the violence
and death in the film — a key player dies — “Half-Blood Prince” still got a PG rating.
“We were surprised it was PG, frankly, because there’s some fairly intense scary bits,” Yates said. “Even grown-ups come out of the movie and say, ‘That bit was quite scary.’”
Love matchWhile dark overtones are
prevalent in “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,” the film is nicely balanced with some humorous bud-ding romances among the teen students.
In this film, Ron gets a girlfriend and Harry, played by Daniel Radcliffe, and Ginny Weasley, portrayed
Rupert Grint, as Ron Weasley, cheers while playing the wizard sport Quidditch.

+THE FINAL SHOWDOWNFor “HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS,” the seventh book in the “Harry Potter” series, the filmmakers decided to break it up into two films so as to not have to cut out any important story points. David Yates, who directed the fifth and sixth movies, is back for the final two.

by Bonnie Wright, get a little amorous, which can be a bit awkward.
“The one thing I would say is the romance element between the characters are very tricky for the cast because they’ve all grown up together. They’re like brothers and sisters [so] snogging (kissing) your sister or your brother when you’re doing a snog scene … ,”Yates said.
New kid in the mixEach of the “Harry Pot-
ters” features a host of
famous British actors, from Alan Rickman to Michael Gambon. Coming aboard in “Half-Blood Prince” is Jim Broadbent, playing the new potions professor Horace Slughorn.
Best known for roles that range from the eccentric, with his turn as Harold Ziegler in “Moulin Rouge!” to his dramatic work, such as his Oscar-winning per formance in “Ir is,”
Broadbent brings both of those aspects together for his scene-stealing perfor-mance.
“The thing about Jim is, he’s quite vivid as an ac-tor,” Yates said. “He takes risks, tries things that are really fun. In ‘Harry Potter,’ that world is always quite heightened, slightly larger than life, yet he always gives it a real core of truth. I love working with him.”
The new faces in ‘Half-Blood Prince’
Here’s a rundown of the new characters to the “Harry Potter” series.
Lavender Brown: P l aye d by Jessie Cave, B r o w n i s t he overly amorous girl-friend of Ron Weasley.
Cormac McLaggen: Played by Freddie Stroma, the bombastic McClag-gen has his eyes on fellow Gryf f indor Hermione Granger.
Narcissa Malfoy: Played by Helen McCrory, Malfoy is the wife of Lu-cius Malfoy, the mother of Draco Malfoy and the sis-ter of Bellatrix Lestrange.
Horace Slughorn: Played by Jim Broadbent, Slughorn is a once-renowned professor at
Hogwarts who is brought back into the fold by Pro-fessor Albus Dumbledore. He pr ides himself on having taught famous magi-cians, and the appeal of teaching Harry Potter is alluring to him. He also has some ties to a young Tom Riddle, the boy who becomes Volde-mort. (SAR)
Daniel Radcliffe, left, as Harry Potter, meets with Michael Gambon as Albus Dumbledore in the new “Harry Potter” film.
A quick look at the new ‘Harry Potter’ video gameThanks to the Wiimote, gamers can now take control of Harry Potter’s magic wand and face off directly against all foes. The video game adaptation of “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” is in stores now, and for anyone who likes the films, this game is a must buy.
With a flick of the wrist, gamers can cast spells, fly through a Quidditch game and mix potions. The game offers a linear story that follows the movie’s plotline, as well as dueling and other challenges. The game is also available on most console and portable systems, as well as for Macs and PCs. (SAR)

Blond bad boy stepping it up BY SCOTT A. [email protected]
Thanks to his role as Harry Potter’s foil, Draco Malfoy, in the “Harry Potter” films, 21-year-old Tom Fel-ton has gotten to work with many top British actors.
“A lot of people ask, ‘Have y o u b e e n to ac t i n g school?’ and in a lot of ways I really have,” said Felton, who saw his role
in the films increase with “Prince.” “For us it’s been a huge learning experience working with the cream of the crop of English actors.”
One of the actors Felton gets to work closest with is Alan Rickman, who plays the acerbic Professor Severus Snape with his dry, slow speech and penetrat-ing eyes. Felton said he’s learned a lot from working with him, especially to nev-
er, ever step on his cloak.“At the very end of the
film, he’s leading us out of the castle,” Felton said. “He’s at the front with his long sweeping cape and [director] David Yates is like, ‘Get right up behind him.’
“Before the scene, [Rick-man] turned around to us all and said, ‘Don’t … step ... on my f------ cloak.’ He does it with great humor, and so we all sort of laughed it off.”
Needless to say, as the director continued to pres-sure him to stay very close to Rickman, Felton did accidentally step on the cloak.
“He was not amused,” Fel-ton joked. “Saying that, he’s definitely the funniest guy on the set.”
Are you worried about being typecast as a villain?I feel it will be quite easy
for me to get away from that by simply changing my hair color.
That’s not your natural hair color, right?No, man, this is six years of constant dyeing, what you see here. It’s not that pleasant. So whatever comes next, I hope it won’t require blond hair.
Do some of your younger fans confuse you for your character?Oh yeah. I think I have half the world under 12 years old hating me. I get more boos than I get cheers, I as-sure you.
A lot of the wizards get to make out in this film, but Draco doesn’t. Jealous?I can only assume that young Draco’s mind is far too busy with the task at hand. I like to tell the story that he has an endless queue of Slytherin girls, but he’s far too busy.

BY HAL BIENSTOCKSpecial to amNewYork
After touring for much of last year behind her album “@#%&*! Smilers,” Aimee Mann has spent most of this year taking time off. But now Mann is ready to venture out on the road, beginning with a three-night all-request stand at City Winery.
“My band and I have to learn more than 90 songs in the next month,” said Mann. “There’s no way we’ll be able to do that, but I think we’ll know most of them pretty well.”
In an era where people are spending an increas-ing amount of time writing about themselves on Twitter, Facebook and personal blogs, Mann has gone the other direction. Her early solo al-bums were generally about her life and career, but for her
last few she has focused on creating characters, much like an author would.
“I think it’s much more interesting to get into someone’s head and see how you relate to other people,” she said. “The whole idea of ‘What makes me special?’ is the quest of
a younger person.”The turning point for
Mann came in 1999 when her songs formed the basis for the Paul Thomas Ander-son movie “Magnolia.”
“That gave me practice identifying with charac-ters,” she said. “I saw my 2006 album ‘The Forgotten
Arm’ as the soundtrack to a movie that didn’t exist.”
Now Mann is consider-ing turning that album into a musical, although it has been slow going.
“It’s a different kind of songwriting and one I’m un-familiar with,” she said, “so my producer and I are going to watch a ton of musicals to plunge ourselves into that world and see if we can do it. If we do, it’ll be years in the making.”

Some people wipe them-selves down with fabric softener sheets before heading outdoors. Others swear by Vicks VapoRub.
People will try anything to keep pesky mosquitoes from taking a bite out of them.
The list of home rem-edies and natural products keeps growing as people seek alternatives to chemi-cal pesticides. Some are convinced these remedies work, but solid research is harder to find.
Here’s a sampling of com-mon remedies:
Garlic: Eating garlic
emits an odor that mosqui-toes find offensive. But it’s unclear how much must be eaten to get the effect. There has been at least one study on the use of garlic as a repellent, but the partici-pants didn’t eat enough to make a difference.
Catnip oil: Researchers at Ohio State University found that the catnip plant can repel mosquitoes 10 times more effectively than DEET, the active ingredient in bug repellents. Other herbs in the mint family are also believed to repel mosquitoes.
Vitamin B1: When taken three times a day, 25 mil-ligrams to 50 milligrams of vitamin B1 is said to produce an odor that pregnant mos-quitoes hate. It’s odorless to
us, but it takes about two weeks to be effective. Not everyone is convinced that the vitamin is a turnoff for mosquitoes. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin found it had no effect.
Clove oil: It works for
headaches and apparently repels mosquitoes, too. Undiluted clove oil repels mosquitoes for up to two hours. The downside is un-diluted clove oil may cause a skin rash. And, of course, it smells. (MCT)
The buzz on skeeter control
Research has found that catnip can repel mosquitoes more effectively than DEET.
A recent study pub-lished in the Archives of Internal Medicine found that 7 percent of abnormal medical test results aren’t reported to patients.
Although the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality tells doctors to inform patients of all results, nearly one-third of the practices surveyed in the study didn’t do so.
“You can’t assume no news is good news,” said study author Lawrence Casalino, of Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City.
Three ways to make sure abnormal test results aren’t missed:
■ Ask your doctor’s office to call you either
way with results. Find out when you should expect to hear. If you don’t hear, call yourself.
■ Switch doctors if your calls aren’t returned. If it takes your doc three days to call back, it may mean the office isn’t well man-aged. If that’s the case, there’s a chance your re-sults could be misplaced. ■ Don’t assume electron-ic records are foolproof. Interestingly, practices using both electronic and paper records had the worst scorecards. Casalino says that may be because they’re in a transitional state, allow-ing results to more easily fall through the cracks.

people wear many hats at small nonprofits.”
Show commitment to the issue. “Having a volunteer track record is a really good
idea. That should be on your resume,” she said.
First-time job seekersDo a year or two of nation-al or international service.
“This is my first absolute piece of advice,” she said, pointing to Peace Corps and AmeriCorps (which pay ba-sic stipends). Note: It takes 18 months from the point of application to ship out for the PeaceCorps.
Look for lesser-known ser-vice options. A lot of larger organizations (especially Teach for America) are over-whelmed with applicants,
Potthast said. But there are plenty of lesser-known op-tions. “There can be a mom- and-pop AmeriCorps in your neighborhood. There’s even a program in India called Indicorps, that’s for people of Indian descent. There are so many options.”
Current climatePotthast said things are looking up a bit.
“The organizations that are hiring are doing so cautiously, but there’s no more of a risk in working at nonprofits.”
The takeaway“The main thing is to really do your homework,” Pot-thast said. Also, “making your resume as relevant as possible. Those are the key points,” she said.

In this time of economic uncertainty and soul- searching, many are turn-ing to the nonprofit sector.
We asked Amy Potthast, director of service and grad-uate education programs at Idealist.org, for advice on breaking in. The first thing, she said, was to start noticing the nonprofits all around you — the hospitals, museums, schools, etc.
But her advice differs greatly based on where you are in your career.

which offers advice for career changers and first-time job seekers.
Become familiar with the sector and language. “Do informational interviews and listen to the words they use,” she said. “You’re going to sound like an outsider with business lingo.”
Match your skills to an association. “Research as-sociations that are appro-priate for you and your skill set,” she said. “For example, if you’re in accounting, we have the same jobs in the nonprofit world.”
Show you can multitask. If you’ve gained experience in lots of fields, Potthast suggested playing that up, “because a lot of times

CROSSWORD PUZZLE Edited by Wayne Robert Williams
FRIDAY’S SOLUTION
7 Aries (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)A friend has a lofty goal but has no clue how to get there. You can help. Point out the parts that need work.
7 Taurus (APRIL 20-MAY 20)The pressure’s on to do some-thing before the deadline. It may not work according to the specs. Get an expert to help.
7 Gemini (MAY 21-JUNE 21)Jump the fence for at least part of the day. Do something interesting with a friend. This doesn’t have to take long.

Carlos Delgado and Jose Reyes gave the Mets injury updates the team was happy to receive.
The injured stars had encourag-ing workouts yesterday, and judging by the way manager Jerry Manuel beamed when discussing their progress,
it must have seemed like the first bit of good news in a couple of miserable months for the banged-up club.
With Reyes and Delgado on the disabled list along with Carlos Beltran (knee), John Maine (shoulder) and J.J. Putz (elbow surgery), the Mets have fallen into a deep funk, losing 11 of 15 games and dropping four games under .500 heading into yesterday’s game. (AP)
DAVIS CUPU.S. ousted by Croatia in Davis Cup quarterfinalsThe United States was elimi-nated by Croatia in the Davis Cup quarterfinals yesterday when Marin Cilic beat James Blake to clinch the victory. Cilic won on indoor clay to give Croatia its first semifinal berth since winning the competition in 2005. Croatia won 3-2 after American doubles specialist Bob Bryan beat Roko Karanu-sic in the final match.

Gary Sheffield had three RBIs a n d D a n i e l Murphy drove in two runs to key a rare robust offense, Mike Pelfrey pitched seven sharp innings and the Mets beat the Cincinnati Reds 9-7 yesterday.
The Citi Field crowd of 40,014 took delight in the Mets’ best offensive output at home since June 24, when they scored 11 against St. Louis. They even chanted for the home run apple in center field after Fernando Tatis hit a pinch-hit homer shortly after Brian Sch-neider led off the seventh with the Mets’ first home run in 80 innings.
The apple popped up at the end of the inning.
Luis Castillo had three hits and scored three runs, David Wright hit a long RBI
Mets offer rare offensive show
double and Jeff Francoeur had two hits in his second game with the Mets. The Mets amassed 16 hits in im-proving to 8-12 since Carlos Beltran went on the DL on June 22.
The Mets needed the offense after the bullpen
nearly wasted a 9-3 lead. Francisco Rodriguez gave up a run in the ninth but finished for his 23rd save.
Pelfrey (7-4) rebounded from his start July 7 against the Dodgers in which he gave up five runs in three innings by shutting down
the poor-hitting Reds. He gave up two singles in the first, then retired 10 in a row before walking the first two batters of the fifth.
The Mets head into the All-Star break 42-45, six games back from Philadel-phia in the NL East.

Good news from injured infielders
Yankees slack against Lackey
John Lackey pitched seven solid innings and the Los Angeles Angels knocked around CC Sabathia to com-plete a sweep of the Yankees with a 5-4 victory yesterday.
Lackey (4-4) quickly worked through the Yan-kees’ lineup, allowing two runs on six hits. He struck out six in one of his most ef-ficient starts since missing the early part of the season with a forearm strain.
Sabathia gave up five runs and struck out six in 6⅔ innings.
The Yankees tried to rally
in the seventh and the eighth, but the Angels got out of bases-loaded jams twice.
Jorge Posada drove in runs in both innings to cut the Angels’ lead to 5-4, and the Yankees looked like they could do some damage with none out in both situations.
But Los Angeles got stel-lar defensive plays to end both innings. (AP)

All-Star alternatesTrevor Hoffman was
supposed to take his sons fishing. Instead, they’re all headed back to the All-Star Game.
The career saves leader was a late addition to the National League squad, join-ing Pittsburgh pitcher Zach Duke and Tampa Bay first baseman Carlos Pena as players picked yesterday to replace All-Stars unable to play tomorrow in St. Louis.
Hoffman, in his f irst season with Milwaukee, will substitute for Dodgers closer Jonathan Broxton, who has an injured toe.
Duke will replace San Francisco starter Matt Cain, who took a line drive off his right arm Saturday.

Lance might ride again in ’10Armstrong says Tour ‘probably not’ his last
Lance Armstrong says he could be back for one more Tour de France.
The 37-year-old Texan, who is competing in the Tour for the f irst time since 2005, was asked by a French TV interviewer if this will be his last one.
“Probably not. Probably not,” Armstrong said on France-2 after yesterday’s ninth stage. “Maybe one more Tour.”
The seven-time cham-pion, who is riding for the Astana team without salary
this year, has previously hinted he may launch his own team next season.
When Astana was hit by
financial trouble earlier this year and faced the prospect of being ejected from the ProTour, Armstrong said
he could take over the team with the backing of U.S. sponsors.
Armstrong is in third place at the Tour, eight sec-onds behind leader Rinaldo Nocentini, who is not seen as an overall threat. (AP)
