Bloomberg flip-flops on perp walk NEW YORK. Mayor Michael Bloomberg backtracked his position on perp walks Tuesday after new information was revealed in the case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn. On May 17, the mayor rebuffed perp walk critics, saying, “If you don’t want to do the perp walk, don’t do the crime.” Yet this week, he called the perp walk “outrageous” and said, “Even if they’re guilty, they’re not guilty until they’re convicted — and yet we vilify them for the benefit of theater, for the circus.” METRO/EAE

Church fires back against gay marriage BROOKYLN. According to Brooklyn bishop Nicholas DiMarzio, Catholic schools and parishes will no longer accept awards from Gov.

According to the Brooklyn Paper, Assemblyman Joe Lentol — who voted in support of gay marriage — said a $50 check he sent for a student in a Williamsburg parish school was returned, along with a statement from the bishop.

DSK fallout could deter rape victims Strauss-Kahn might walk the way of Mata and Moreno Acquittals may discourage future victims Maid wants Manhattan DA off her case New Yorkers have seen two high-profile rape cases collapse before their eyes -— first, the two ex-NYPD cops accused of sex assault and now Dominique StraussKahn -— causing some victims’ advocates to worry that the cases may discourage women from reporting rape in the future. “If you see someone denigrated by the press, you may not want to come forward,” said Lynn Frederick Hawley, of the Mount Sinai Sexual Assault/Violence Intervention program. On Wednesday, the hotel maid accusing Strauss-Kahn

of rape said she wants a new special prosecutor to handle her case, instead of embattled Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance. Vance’s office has leaked damaging information about her, her lawyers claim, and she wants Vance to recuse himself, in a letter filed Wednesday obtained by Reuters.

Anonymous law enforcement sources told the media the woman lied about being gang-raped in her native Guinea in order to get asylum. “A victim’s reputation is often attacked in a criminal trial,” said Sonia Ossorio, director of the New York chapter of the National Organization for Women. “Someone’s going to be digging into your past to see if you ever lied on a job application; your love life will be scrutinized.” Cases like those of Strauss-Kahn and former police officers Kenneth

Moreno and Franklin Mata reinforce victim-blaming, said Amy Edelstein, a rape crisis coordinator at Safe Horizons. “When we hear about these cases, it perpetuates the stereotype that victims of rape are not credible,” said Edelstein. The most common deterrents to reporting a rape are a language barrier, a past bad experience with law enforcement and a fear of being personally attacked during a trial, she said.

Twitter funding puts value at $7B Following successful IPOs of other tech firms, social networking site is raising the stakes of its valuation Twitter Inc., the microblogging site that lets users post 140-character messages, is raising funding that values the startup at about $7 billion, said a person with knowledge of the matter. Twitter’s worth has almost doubled since December, when it received a $200 million investment led by Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers that valued the company at $3.7 billion. The startup was

pegged at about $1 billion in 2009, a person familiar with the matter said at the time. SharesPost Inc., an exchange for shares of closely held companies, has assessed Twitter’s current worth at $6.8 billion.

Twitter is continuing to raise funds from private investors, rather than joining other social-media companies in filing for an initial public offering. LinkedIn Corp., a professional-networking site, went public in May. Since then, Groupon Inc., the biggest daily-deal site, and Zynga Inc., the top developer of Facebook games, have both filed for IPOs. BLOOMBERG CHUNG SUNG-JUN/GETTY IMAGES

Out of almost 200 orangutans studied, researchers found that those who scored as “happier” by their keepers were more likely to be alive up to seven years later. sity of Arizona asked zookeepers who worked closely with captive orangutans to take part in the study. The carers answered questions about the animals, their personalities and attitude.

The questionnaire posed four main questions to the animal carers, including how much time each orangutan spent “happy, contented and enjoying itself.” The carers were also asked how happy they would be if they were the animal in question. “The results of our study do suggest that a zookeeper’s impression of happiness is probably a good indicator of an individual orangutan’s health and welfare,” Weiss said.

C

harlie Day, who is mostly known for his illiterate, glue-sniffing character on FX’s “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” has been put in the unlikely position of explaining why being pursued for a sexual liaison by a character resembling Jennifer Aniston is unpleasant. It’s not an easy job. “Most men don’t cheat on their wives. Not all, but close,” he offers rather sheepishly. In the new comedy “Horrible Bosses,” he plays a dental hygienist to Aniston’s man-eating dentist. Entirely devoted to his fiancee, Day’s character, Dale, is terrified by his boss’s blackmailing seduction. As the logic of the film goes, he and his buddies — played by Jason Sudeikis and Jason Bateman — therefore decide to kill Dale’s boss along with their own. Dark as it may seem, “Bosses,” much like “Sunny,” isn’t afraid to cover controversial topics. “I don’t think anything is too taboo to make funny,” says Day. “Murder is a terrible thing.

hat’s where the overlap between “Horrible Bosses” and “It’s Always Sunny” — for which Day is also a writer and producer — lies. He has just wrapped production on Season 7 of the sitcom, which depicts the depraved lives of a group of egocentric bottom-feeders. No topic — from abortion to cats wearing mittens — is too crooked or bizarre. “Managing to fly under the radar enough so that we don’t lose our street cred, but be a big enough hit that we’re actually a very successful show, has been a really nice balance,” says Day, who also offers up spoilers for the new season, premiering in September: “One of my favorite episodes is a ‘Toddlers and Tiaras’-esque thing, a kiddie pageant episode, which is just ridiculous,” Day says. “Frank has gotten involved in pageantry. He thinks it’s grown women he’s getting involved with but it happens to be kids — and he has to go through with it. It’s another great season.” HEIDI PATALANO

Yeah, these ‘Bosses’ are pretty bad

JOHN P. JOHNSON

‘Horrible Bosses’ Director: Seth Gordon Cast: Charlie Day, Jason Bateman, Jennifer Aniston, Jason Sudeikis Rating: R Grade: –—˜™š

A plot to kill management seems implausible At least the dumb idea provides a few good laughs

#1 COMEDY 2 WEEKS IN A ROW!

Movie studios know that while many people are unemployed right now, those of us who have jobs still feel pretty stuck in what we’re doing. No one’s happy. No one feels hopeful about the future. Ergo, a movie about three dim men who, suffering under the tyranny of terrible management, decide the only way to fix things is to kill their bosses. Should we feel insulted? Judging by the quality of this movie, maybe. Director Seth Gordon has the best actors you could ask for in place. The three demeaned laborers — Jason Sudeikis, Jason Bateman and Charlie Day — do work well with what they’ve got. They gel as a group, even if the jokes themselves aren’t that funny. The biggest problem here lies in the implausibility of what they’re doing.

From left, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis and Jason Bateman clumsily plot a murder in “Horrible Bosses,� in theaters Friday.

Would anyone really decide to kill a gorgeous boss (Jennifer Aniston) who is coming on to her subordinate (Day)? You can sense the screenwriters wrote and rewrote the script to try to make sense of the plot, to make it seem like murder was the only answer. Along the way there are a few

great laughs — especially with the presence of Jamie Foxx as Motherf---er Jones, a con artist who becomes the trio’s counselor in all things homicidal. But in the end, the premise still feels dead on arrival. HEIDI PATALANO

Gladis glad to be back Michael Gladis uses ‘Leverage’ to return to drama What the ‘Mad Men’ alum learned from Clint Eastwood while shooting Hoover biopic ‘J. Edgar’

A

fter three seasons on the retro “Mad Men,” Michael Gladis leaps back to the present day to join the cast of “Leverage.” As a PR pro specializing in damage control, Gladis — who says he doesn’t even have a publicist himself — shakes things up in this Sunday’s episode, “The 15 Minutes Job.”

Michael Gladis guest stars on Sunday's episode of “Leverage,” airing at 9 p.m. on TNT.

You played a copywriter on “Mad Men,” and now you’re a publicist on “Leverage.” Are drawn to characters with

media careers?

Not particularly, it’s just the way it’s panned out so far. I hope that I’ll get to play some other types of characters on film that’ll allow me to surprise myself and other people. That’s the whole fun of acting. But for right now, I’ll take any work I can get — so if it’s a brainy literary character, I’ll do that. I’m sure I’ll play a moron at some point. How was it working on the “Leverage” set compared to that of “Mad Men”?

Every set is different, just because every show is different. Being a guest star is always a very difficult thing because you’re trying to serve a preexisting vision. They’ve come up with the performance style, and

Q&A You’re in the upcoming “J. Edgar” movie. How was it working with Clint Eastwood? Clint Eastwood has a reputation that he moves incredibly quickly. It’s pretty much guaranteed that he’ll come in on time and under budget, and so I was warned that I may only get one or two takes of my scene. And that’s pretty much the way it happened; I think I got three takes. And I have an incredibly small role, it’s a blinkand-you’ll-miss-me role, but I did it because it’s a dream — Clint Eastwood’s one of my heroes. I’d be an extra in one of his movies.

there’s a writing style, and you really have to suss that out as soon as you get there and try and perform on their level, with them, in the way that they’re used to performing. It’s always a really great challenge but it’s also really fun. How did you get ready to step into that world?

Obviously, your work as an actor is to prepare your role. Then you just have to be very, very light on your feet and respond to the director and to your fellow actors. And be observant. And be respectful. [And don’t] impose yourself or your ideas on their production, but really serve it. MEREDITH ENGEL

‘Measure’ looks at ambiguity of morals Public Theater’s Shakespeare in the Park comedy is dark, deceptive A look at ‘Measure for Measure,’ about corruption and hard choices With a title taken from the Bible (Matthew 7.1-2), it’s no wonder “Measure for Measure” — currently playing in repertory with “All’s Well That Ends Well” in Central Park — broaches moralistic ground. Yet by contorting the role of judgment and mercy with regard to both law and religion, the play is murky about who’s wrong or right. Should Isabella (Danai Gurira) preserve her virginity at the cost of her brother’s life? Must Lord Angelo (Michael Hayden) uphold outdated laws, like death for premarital sex? Is the duke (Joe Forbrich), who

holds himself superior yet sets in motion much of the play’s deception, acting in his constituents’ best interests or merely entertaining himself ? These questions are not only subject to audience discretion; sadly, actors seem unable to commit, often becoming louder when scenes call for nuance. In the end, it’s the capricious sinners — backstabbing Lucio (Reg Rogers) and facile Pompey (Carson Elrod) — who seem most steadfast by maintaining their self-serving intents. Despite being categorized as a comedy — in that everyone marries at the end

rather than dies — this plot’s content is bawdy and dark. Costumes and sound superbly capture this tone with leather and corsets, rumbling growls and haunting melodies. Appreciated but underused is the presence of masked demons lurking in the shadows at pivotal points. In the final moment, one last question is posed but unanswered, leaving the heroine in a state of perplexity — and neatly knotting off the noose proven of philosophical or religious fixedness. T.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are currently visit-

ing North America on a 12day overseas tour. And now that they’re moving on from seeing so much of Canada (what gives, haven’t you guys ever heard of New York City?), they’re heading to Los Angeles on Friday, where William will host a $4,000a-head sit-down dinner for the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, of which he is the president. But author Christopher Anderson of the New York Times best-selling book “William and Kate: A Royal Love Story” says that the royal pair aren’t too excited about the evening, even though the star-studded event will include “a very nice celebrity list,” per the organizers. “While everyone in Hollywood has been jockeying for an invitation to the ‘Brits to Watch’ BAFTA dinner at the legendary Belasco Theater being hosted by the royal couple, neither William nor Kate seem very interested in cozying up to stars,”

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, appeared in Yellowknife, Canada, on Tuesday.

pregnancy watchers might get a little Christmas present this year — and all the Suris and Maddoxs of the world might be downsized a bit. “I wouldn’t be surprised if we had an announcement of a royal pregnancy by the end of the year,” the author says. “Diana gave birth to William less than a year after her marriage, which seems to be the general rule among royals. I was a senior editor at People back in l982 and handled the magazine’s coverage of William’s birth — the story was as big, if not bigger, than the royal wedding itself,” he adds. “The media, and the world, went completely baby-crazy. If anything, this will be an even bigger media event. Carrying both the legacy of the royal family and Diana’s legacy, this will unquestionably be the most famous child in the world.”

Buttermilk fried chicken Anyone who resides south of the Mason-Dixon Line can tell you the hallmarks of Southern fried chicken. The skin needs to be wellseasoned and crispy, and the meat inside moist and tender. These buttermilk fried drumsticks meet the criteria, and would be perfect alongside macaroni salad at your next picnic.

1 1

quart (4 cups) vegetable oil cup all-purpose flour

Directions

1

Ingredients 1 quart (4 cups) buttermilk 2½ teaspoons kosher salt, plus more as needed ¼ teaspoon plus 1 pinch dried thyme 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper ⅛ teaspoon plus 1 pinch cayenne pepper 8 chicken drumsticks

You’ll eat salad next week.

Place the buttermilk in a resealable plastic bag, add 1 ½ teaspoons of the salt, ¼ teaspoon of the thyme, ½ teaspoon of the black pepper and ⅛ teaspoon of the cayenne pepper and stir to combine. Add the chicken to the bag and turn to coat in the buttermilk. Seal the bag and refrigerate 30 minutes or overnight. When you’re ready to cook the chicken, let it sit at room temperature in the marinade for 30

minutes. Pour the oil into a large, straight-sided frying pan or cast iron skillet (it should reach halfway up the side). Heat over medium-low heat until the oil reaches between 350°F and 360°F on a candy/fat thermometer, about 20 minutes. (If you don’t have a thermometer, test it by sprinkling flour in the oil. If

the oil’s hot enough, it will sizzle, then quickly dissipate.) Meanwhile, combine the flour, the remaining 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, pinch of cayenne and pinch of thyme in a shallow dish. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet and set aside. When the oil is ready, remove 4 of the drumsticks from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off. Coat the chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess. Carefully lay the pieces in the oil and fry until cooked through and golden brown, flipping halfway through, about 20 minutes total. (An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the drumstick should read 160°F to 165°F. If you don’t have a thermometer, cut a small slit down to the bone; the juices should run clear and there should be no pink at the bone.) Place the drumsticks on the rack and season with salt. Repeat with the remaining chicken.

Sip cool this summer

There’s a right way to order a fancy mojito in a packed bar, and then there’s a really wrong way We checked in with a veteran barkeep How to get a drink in a crowded bar ... It’s all about patience, tipsy grasshopper — and a smile wouldn’t hurt. “Honestly, if it’s a good bartender, just approach the bar, make eye contact and look pleasant,” says Lee Vick, who tends bar at Philly’s Rum Bar. “We see you, and we want to take care of you as soon as we can.”

And how to not get a drink “Don’t wave money, don’t knock or tap on the bar, don’t poke at us,” says Vick. Wait — did he say poke? “Yeah, they’ll reach back and poke at you — it can get annoying.” Seriously guys? Stop that right now.

Pay this way Want to open a tab? The answer is yes. “I would much rather somebody open a tab — it’s just so much easier and faster,” says Vick. “I’ve been doing this for 20 years, and I’ve never lost a credit card.”

If you have to pay the next day ... Vick won’t misplace your card, but you might. If you forget to close out your tab at the end of the night, don’t worry too much — you’ll have plenty of walk-ofshame company. “It happens all the time. Just call the next day and say that you left your card. We keep them for two or three weeks, because it’s amazing how long people will not realize they lost their credit card,” says Vick. A tipping tip: Bring cash. They won’t be able to add a tip to the card. MONICA WEYMOUTH monica.weymouth@metro.us

Patience makes the Soundgarden grow It’s been 20 years since the heyday of grunge, but Chris Cornell is ready to rock again with the band that put him on the map There is a lot less pressure on the band, but that means the new album may take a while

C

hris Cornell has a practical approach to Soundgarden these days. He does what he does because he and his band like it, not because a record company says they have to. The singer, fresh off a solo tour, says he looks forward to the release that playing aggressive music with his old band gives him. You’ve been doing a lot of solo touring. How different is the mind-set between those shows and Soundgarden shows?

Lately I’ve been doing what I call the “Songbook” tour,

which is pretty much just me and an acoustic guitar, so it’s about as opposite as you can get. ... In that way, you don’t really have to strive for balance. One kind of takes care of the other. After touring around for a month and a half, doing that [acoustic tour], I was really looking forward to getting in the studio with Soundgarden and playing loud, aggressive rock music. And then after doing that for a while it will feel great to just sit alone and play an acoustic guitar. So in that way I think I’m pretty fortu-

nate to be able to have such dramatic extremes. The last time we spoke, you said this about Soundgarden: “To me, making a record makes more sense than doing a live show. And even that would be something that I don’t think would make sense. It doesn’t seem like anything like that would ever happen, so the idea to reform just to play live seems even more ludicrous to me.” When did you depart from that way of thinking?

I guess once we were actually in a room, talking about doing different things to sort of service the legacy of

Soundgarden. ... We didn’t get back together to immediately get an album out because we want to go on tour and get paid. We’ve done it in a time that was comfortable and in a way that makes sense to us, where everyone’s inspired and having fun, writing and recording new material at a pace that feels good with the concern that it’s a great record that we want to put out. … [There is] nothing else, no other concern at all. When it comes out it doesn’t matter, as long as we’re happy with it.

Q&A: Getting laid back

Is the band proceeding with caution so you don’t fall into the traps that caused tension and led to the breakup? Well, I think the main one is avoiding concerns about scheduling. I suppose there was always a factor of record companies worrying about competition, other record labels and what they’re releasing by what bands that would be in direct competition with our band. And that’s concerned with a lot of different things — with touring, with radio

airplay, with TV airplay and all the things that go along with it. And we’re not really in that position anymore. We’re just Soundgarden, and we’re just in that stage of being a band that there isn’t really competition. There isn’t really another band that can rush in and take our place if we’re not ready. And that’s made everything pretty relaxed. Soundgarden Saturday, 7:30 p.m. Nikon at Jones Beach Theater, 1000 Ocean Parkway, Wantagh, NY $40-$88, 800-745-3000 www.livenation.com

Smells like retro spirit Nostalgia seems to operate on 20-year cycles. In the ’80s there was a great big groovy ’60s revival, and in the last decade, many musicians totally took their cues from the ’80s. It’s only fitting that the ’90s are coming back now. Here are a few signs. Dave Grohl told New Music Express last week that he played “Smells Like Teen Spirit” for the first time in 17 years when Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic did a guest spot on the new Foo Fighters album. “Krist says, ‘You wanna run through some oldies?’ Me and Pat [Smear,

20 years together as a band. Beady Eye is Oasis, minus Noel Gallagher. Though they aren’t resting on laurels by just playing Oasis hits in concert, they probably wouldn’t pack so many people into their shows if it wasn’t at least a possibility that they’d bust into “Wonderwall.”

Godsmack, who became popular in the late ’90s, is a headliner of this year’s Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival. Singer Sully Erna says he thinks that the rock of the ’90s is back for the same reason it became popular in the first place: “If history has taught us anything, it’s that rock ’n’ roll always comes back in one form or another,” he says. 311 is touring with Sublime with Rome. It’s Sublime’s drummer and bassist with a new frontman who is a big dude like the late Bradley Nowell. To hear him sing “Wrong Way,” you might swear it’s 1996 again.

Thierry Muret, former chemist and current Master Chocolatier at Godiva, on his unusual career path ‘It’s all about knowing your consumers,’ he tells us As Godiva’s Master Chocolatier, Thierry Muret has one of the sweetest jobs in the world.

You need to fall in love with what you study. A

are working for the Mid-Autumn celebration, so a brand new mooncake collection with five pieces will come out. I have a chef working on that here, but I contacted a chef in China to really see if we are into the expectation of the Chinese custom.”

Pay attention to details: “[At Godiva,] all the shell molding is done by hand, all the dipping is done by hand, all the decoration is done by hand. Detail is essential — that’s the difference between the mass market and the super premium. When you’re passionate about it, you’re looking forward to the details.” Find a brand that fits your style: “All chefs have a style. It’s very difficult to define, but you sense it right away. The hardest part for an executive [is] to keep all the styles in one company style, but with [a] little differentiation. To hire one chef, I interviewed 52 of them; people are saying, ‘Why are you eliminating this one?’ Because he doesn’t have that proper style.” Never stop learning: “When you stop learning, you should get out of the profession,” he says.

Steps to acing a phone interview

This seemingly simple chat is anything but Paul Bailo, CEO of Phone Interview Pro, on how to make it through the toughest type of interview Take advantage of your home court “A phone interview is like an open-book test — have everything in front of you,” says Bailo of your resume and any written questions you have for the hiring manager. “The other thing we tell people is to go on LinkedIn and have a picture of the person interviewing you in front of you. It brings it down to a more personal, human level.”

Want more expert advice? Bailo’s new book, “The Essential Phone Interview Handbook” is available now.

Put down your cell phone It doesn’t so much matter where you do the interview as what you do it on: name-

Play hard to get Interviewing, unfortunately, is a lot like dating. “Don’t pick up the phone on the first ring. For a scheduled phone interview, the second or third ring is safe. But if you miss the fourth ring, let it go to the answering machine. By the fourth, they’re not happy with you. Give them 30 seconds, then call them back with a business explanation. Now, they’ve switched modes and they’ll appreciate you calling them back.”

ly, on a designated landline. “Some people feel comfortable on their office phone, some people feel more comfortable in the kitchen. But no cell phone,” says Bailo. “People who are looking for a job need to have a Batphone. And that phone number is only given out to people who are looking to interview you.” Be yourself “The No. 1 problem is: People aren’t themselves on phone interviews. They try to be someone they’re not,” says Bailo.

This is especially harmful, because the person on the other end doesn’t have any other way to relate to you. Accents, he notes, can work in your favor because they create a point of interest for the person on the other end of the line. “With the phone interview, you lose 80 percent of your communication. All your social cues are gone. They only thing you have to work with is your voice. What you say, how you say it, all matter,” Bailo says. MONICA WEYMOUTH

believe the government should stay out of the business of consenting adults entering into contracts, such as regulating gay marriage, remember that this could also apply to polygamy, polyandry and incestuous relations. For those who truly believe it’s not the government’s business to regulate such matters, this should not be a deterrent. SEAN CASSIDY, VIA E-MAIL It’s not over.

Gay “marriage” isn’t about contracts or rights, or some nonexistent link to magnetic polarity, or defiance of biblical didactic lessons, or fodder for comedic commentators; it’s about secular morality being imposed by governmental fiat with the intended purpose of allowing 3 percent of the population to be able to tell the other 97 percent, “See, we’re just like you” — giving rise to the appearance that the gay lifestyle is mainstream when actually nothing could be further from the truth.

Brad Richards is joining the Rangers next season, and he’ll have a lot of pressure on him to spark the team’s power play.

The New York Rangers’ unspoken — but widely understood — need on breakup day was Brad Richards. That need was filled 68 days later. The Rangers and Richards agreed to a nineyear, $60 million contract over the July 4 weekend. The pact, in which there is a no movement clause, calls for Richards to earn $57 million in the first six years and $1 million in each of the final three years while being an annual $6.67 million hit to the Rangers cap. The Richards signing

should improve the Rangers offensive production in the near future. The Rangers were a playoff team in 2010-11 due to its willingness to grind along the boards and forecheck. But the lack of skill was evident in their first round playoff series loss to Washington. Head coach John Tortorella said that organizational decision-makers determined that the Rangers’ biggest needs were “an elite center ice man” and “a guy to run the power play. “We got that with Richie.”

Devils wait for Parise arbitration

The Rangers’ power play was mostly ineffective in the regular season, scoring 16.9 percent of the time. It became impotent in the

playoffs. The Rangers only scored once on 20 man-advantage chances against Washington. Equally as important,

The Islanders were conservative in free agency, only signing Marty Reasoner this weekend.

Steven Stamkos and Drew Doughty Should either not sign long-term pacts with their teams, the onus will be on the organization to present lucrative, multi-year offer sheets to one or both worth over $100 million. New Nassau Coliseum Referendum vote is Aug. 1 and Stamkos or Doughty would look very good to the voters. Grade: Inc.

The one must-sign is Zach Parise. They remain in arbitration for now, hoping to sign a long-term deal later. New Jersey was limited to re-signing Andy Greene

In addition to Brad Richards, the Rangers added respected veteran Mike Rupp, who will fit nicely with Brian Boyle and Brandon Prust. Organizational decision makers will be ecstatic if that line contributes 30 goals, 300 hits and kills penalties.

Richards will center Marian Gaborik on the top line. Gaborik fell from 42 goals in 2009-10 to 22 last season, his lowest goals per game average in seven years.

By the time the bottom of the first was over, Hughes had added a wild pitch and two runs scored as well. Hughes settled down, but it was too late thanks to the anemic Yankees offense. Derek Jeter went 1for-3 in his quest to reach 3,000 hits, but he was one of the few to reach base. The Yankees managed just three hits through eight innings off former Red Sox Justin Masterson (7-6). The top three hitters in the Indians’ lineup meanwhile were 4-for-9 with two runs scored. Indians

rookie Lonnie Chisenhall hit his first career home run. Hughes (0-2) took the loss, but his much maligned fastball velocity did increase from his early season struggles. He was in

the 92-94 mph range most of the night. He threw 88 pitches (57 strikes) and was removed after five innings. The Yankees scored three runs in the ninth before Chris Perez closed it out. METRO

Wanna see hit 3,000? Pay up Derek Jeter is four hits shy of 3,000, and the chance to see history has more than doubled some ticket prices for the New York Yankees’ next home series. The Yankees return home for four games against the Tampa Bay Rays on July 7-10, their final series before Major League Baseball’s All-Star break. Ticket prices to the July 9 game at Yankee Stadium are averaging $165 on the secondary market, up from $77 last week, according to FanSnap.com, an Internet search engine that finds seats on about 50 ticket-reselling websites. The average ticket price for today’s series-opener against the Rays is $138, according to FanSnap, while seats to the July 8 game are being resold for $165, up 25 percent since yesterday. The average ticket cost for July 10, the final game before the AllStar break, is $158. “The pundits may say Saturday, but the market’s not so sure,” Anderson said. “Tickets to Friday’s and Saturday’s

You can bet there are lots of fans snapping up tickets for both days as a hedge.” The Yankees’ July 9 game against the Rays has the highest average price for the series at $235, according to SeatGeek.com, a search engine for tickets to sports events and concerts. TiqIQ.com, an event ticket aggregator that tracks listings from StubHub, eBay, TicketNetwork and TicketsNow, also has Saturday’s game at Yankee Stadium as the most expensive in the series, at an average of $193. If Jeter doesn’t break the record this weekend, he won’t play at home again until July 22 vs. Oakland after an eight-game road trip. BLOOMBERG

Clemens may call former teammates to defense MARK WILSON/GETTY IMAGES

Witnesses Both the defense and prosecution outlined several witnesses they may call to the stand during the trial. The list reads more like an All-Star team than a witness list.

Roger Clemens arrives for the opening day of his perjury trial beside his by wife, Debra.

Jury selection begins in perjury trial for ex-Yankees pitching great Prosecution, defense lay out lists of big-time athletes that may testify Baseball pitching great Roger Clemens may call ex-teammates to testify in his defense at his perjury trial while a prosecutor said on Wednesday he may mention or call as witnesses star players implicated in the steroids scandal. Both sides laid out their potential strategies on the first day of the trial in which one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history has been accused of lying to Congress when he denied taking performanceenhancing drugs. Clemens was indicted a year ago on charges he gave false statements to a U.S. congressional committee investigating steroid use in baseball, perjured himself under oath and obstructed the lawmakers' inquiry into widespread drug use that tarnished the sport’s reputation. Clemens, 48, the winner of a record seven Cy Young Awards for best pitcher in his league, has denied taking human growth hormones or steroids or lying

to Congress. If convicted, sentencing guidelines call for up to 21 months in prison, though the maximum penalty is 30 years. Defense lawyer Rusty Hardin said his list of potential witnesses include the defendant’s wife, Debra Clemens, and former teammates including Hall of Famer Wade Boggs. The prosecutor also listed Brian Cashman, the New York Yankees general manager who was with the team at the same time as Clemens. Potential witnesses were disclosed as part of the process to select 12 jurors who will be charged with deciding Clemens’

guilt or innocence. The judge and both sides wanted to make sure prospective jurors do not know any potential witnesses. The trial will pit the word of Clemens against that of two former close associates who were listed among prosecution witnesses — former trainer Brian McNamee and former teammate Andy Pettitte. Clemens’ defense team argues his primary accuser, McNamee, is a habitual liar and trumped up the allegations and evidence about drug use to distract from his own legal problems, stemming from a 2001 sexual-assault investigation. Judge Reggie Walton called in the first batch of potential jurors on Wednesday, gave them a written questionnaire to fill out and then asked them questions individually. Walton also reversed himself on a key issue in the perjury trial, saying he would probably allow teammates of Clemens to testify about their steroid injections. REUTERS

INTEREST RATES COULD RISE SIGNIFICANTLY - LOCK IN TO HISTORICALLY LOW RATES AT MEADOWWOOD NOW!

Don’t start swinging that hammer just yet Some planning — and maybe some hired help — can make all the difference with your next home project

aving money by doing home repair projects yourself sounds pretty tempting. And it all looks so easy on TV! But beware: Household jobs have a way of taking on a life of their own. So whether the plan is to fix a leaky sink or remodel the whole kitchen, first check out these tips on how to DIY the right way. RACHEL VIGODA letters@metro.us

Read up Know all the steps before you start. That might mean reading articles, watching howto videos or even signing up for a class to learn the basics — or learn that you’re getting in over your head. “Part of taking a class is possibly at the end saying, ‘This isn’t for me,’” says Stacey Hendricks, head of the education committee at the West Philly Tool Library in Philadelphia, which lends tools to residents in the community. Even if you decide not to DIY, Hendricks adds, once you’ve done the research you’ll know the right questions to ask when choosing a contractor. STOCKBYTE

Start small “People have to be realistic about the amount of time and work it’s going to take,” Hendricks cautions. He suggests testing your skills and speed with a small proj-

ect. If the goal is to install hardwood floors, for example, try building a wooden shelf: “If you wind up with cut fingers and rickety shelves, you might want to hire someone for those floors.”

Q&A Still not sure if you should DIY? Ask yourself these three questions, says Hendricks: 1. Will I enjoy it or hate every second? 2. Do I have enough time? 3. Is it worth the money I’ll spend on materials?

ast summer, interest rates broke record lows, bottoming out at 4.42 percent – the lowest in over 40 years. Since then, interest rates have fluctuated, but could increase to historical averages, making it more important than ever to lock into current interest rates before they increase again.

At MeadowWood at Gateway, homeownership is already easy and affordable, and with still-low interest rates it’s more achievable than ever. For instance, you can own a spacious, fully renovated three-bedroom with a mortgage payment as low as $1,470 per month with today’s 4.5 % interest rates. In the past 5 years, interest rates have been as high as 6.75%, - which would make your monthly mortgage payment over $1,880 per month. That’s a big difference – almost $5,000 a year! Now is the time to buy a home at MeadowWood at Gateway and lock in still-low interest rates – secure your future and lock in housing costs now and avoid paying someone else more and more rent each year!

There are better ways to do it than sticking your head in the freezer We got top tips from an HGTV pro It may feel nice to keep the air-conditioning on full blast — but when you do that, you’re running your energy costs sky-high and doing Mother Nature no favors.

“They’re white so they’ll reflect the light off. Cellular or honeycomb shades are awesome too, because they almost trap the heat in the cellular compartments of the shade.”

Choose your fabrics wisely

Whether it’s window treatments or pillows, cotton and linen are great, lightweight choices, she says.

“If you plant trees on the south or west sides of your house, it’ll keep it cooler in the summer — but it’ll actually keep it warmer in the winters because the sun sets and rises on the opposite side in winter.”

Step away from the refrigerator: We’ve got alternative ways to stay cool.
