Hawking Occupy Wall Street images EMILY ANNE EPSTEIN/METRO

Photographer to sell protesters’ portraits for $200 each But protesters pictured had no idea Occupy Wall Street’s gallery debut is today. Except the protesters say they have had no part in it. Fort Greene photographer Andrew Piccone’s show “Faces of Occupy Wall Street” opens at the Frontrunner gallery in TriBeCa tonight. There, he hopes to sell the portraits of some 26 protesters for $200 a print. Piccone, 24, admits he hasn’t spoken to a single one of his subjects. “I didn’t interact with them or tell them what I was going to do with the photos,” Piccone said. “I liked my role as a voyeur.” Some Occupiers say they feel violated. Eric Cartar, 30, from New Orleans, called Piccone’s exhibit “disingenuous.” “All the energy in this

park is against being commodified,” said Carter. “He’s just missing the point.” Protesters told Metro that they understand they are occupying a public park, but wish Piccone would have been more transparent about his intentions when he snapped their photos. “I don’t think it’s morally right,” Camille Raneem, 21, a Hunter student, said. Raneem said she’s been photographed hundreds of times since the occupation began and finds the barrage of cameras “harassing.” “They photograph you while you’re waking up,” she said. “You feel like an animal in a zoo.” EMILY ANNE EPSTEIN emily.epstein@metro.us

“I would not consider myself a participant in the protest,” he said to Metro. “There are certain things I agree with, and certain things I might not.” “Faces of Occupy Wall Street” is the budding photographer’s first show. When told of protesters’ fury over his exhibit, Piccone said he now plans to donate “a portion of the profits” to the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Jakobson renters take to Twitter, Tumblr to air landlord woes Tales of disrepair rampant online Forget the streets — angry tenants are now taking to the tweets. A group of renters has decided to speak out against their landlord, Jakobson Properties, creating a Twitter handle and Tumblr account to cull accounts of what they say is neglect in their buildings. “We kept complaining about things and never saw any results,” said John, the East Village resident who created @Jakobson_Fix_It on Nov. 7. He lives in a Jakobsonowned building and didn’t want to give his last name out of fear of repercussion. “We want to hold Jakobson

Anonymous residents had the following to say about Jakobson: “During the snow storm the ‘roof leaked’ into my apartment. I called maintenance and this guy came and gave me PAPER TOWELS and PLASTIC WRAP.” “If it weren’t bad enough that they hadn’t repainted before I moved in, they didn’t bother to remove the former tenant before I moved in!”

Audit: MTA overpaying for overtime A unit of the MTA’s MetroNorth railroad abused overtime rules to inflate compensation by almost $1 million and future pension payments by $5.5 million, an audit by New York state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli showed. Supervisors for the signal construction unit, which worked on Metro-North’s Hudson and Harlem lines, assigned employees to nighttime duty even though they had day shifts, the audit found. The switch then triggered a federal requirement that the workers rest while earning full pay during their regular shift the next day. Of the unit’s 30 work-

JANUVIA (jah-NEW-vee-ah) should not be used in patients with type 1 diabetes or with diabetic ketoacidosis (increased ketones in the blood or urine). If you have had pancreatitis (inďŹ&#x201A;ammation of the pancreas), it is not known if you have a higher chance of getting it while taking JANUVIA. Selected Risk Information About JANUVIA: Serious side effects can happen in people who take JANUVIA, including pancreatitis, which may be severe and lead to death. Before you start taking JANUVIA, tell your doctor if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever had pancreatitis. Stop taking JANUVIA and call your doctor right away if you have pain in your stomach area (abdomen) that is severe and will not go away. The pain may be felt going from your abdomen through to your back. The pain may happen with or without vomiting. These may be symptoms of pancreatitis. Do not take JANUVIA if you are allergic to any of its ingredients, including sitagliptin. Symptoms of serious allergic reactions to JANUVIA, including rash, hives, and swelling of the face, lips, tongue, and throat that may cause difďŹ culty breathing or swallowing, can occur. If you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, stop taking JANUVIA and call your doctor right away. Kidney problems, sometimes requiring dialysis, have been reported. If you take JANUVIA with another medicine that can cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), such as a sulfonylurea or insulin, your risk of getting low blood sugar is higher. The dose of your sulfonylurea medicine or insulin may need to be lowered while you use JANUVIA. Signs and symptoms of low blood sugar may include headache, drowsiness, weakness, dizziness, confusion, irritability, hunger, fast heart beat, sweating, and feeling jittery. Your doctor may do blood tests before and during treatment with JANUVIA to see how well your kidneys are working. Based on these results, your doctor may change your dose of JANUVIA. The most common side effects of JANUVIA are upper respiratory tract infection, stuffy or runny nose and sore throat, and headache.

Bad credit not good indicator NEW YORK. A bad credit

score is not linked to deviant behavior in the workplace, according to a

new study set to be published in the Journal of Applied Psychology. According to researchers at Louisiana State University who conducted the study, eliminating an indi-

vidual from job contention based on negative credit information is unnecessary because it doesn’t indicate the applicant will steal or engage in other bad behavior at work. MAINSTREET.COM

Comedian Eddie Murphy bowed out yesterday as host of the upcoming Oscars, one day after producer Brett Ratner who had lured Murphy into the role also exited following an uproar from his use of a gay slur. “I appreciate how Eddie feels about losing his creative partner, Brett Ratner, and we all wish him well,” Tom Sherak, president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which puts on the Oscars, said in a statement. On Tuesday, Ratner resigned from the high-profile job as Oscar producer in the face of an industry firestorm after his answer to a question at a screening

this past weekend of his new comedy, “Tower Heist,” which Murphy stars in. Ratner was asked about using rehearsals ahead of the film shoot, and he

replied “rehearsing is for fags.” He later apologized publicly, but gay rights groups and some members of the academy took issue with his use of the slur. “First and foremost, I want to say that I completely understand and support each party’s decision with regard to a change of producers for this year’s Academy Awards ceremony,” Murphy said in a statement. “I was truly looking forward to being a part of the show that our production team and writers were just starting to develop, but I’m sure that the new production team and host will do an equally great job,” Murphy said.

In US, seriously ill struggle to get help

Chronically sick Americans lag behind in access to and payment of health care We spend more, though Americans who have a chronic illness or serious health problems are more likely to struggle to pay their medical bills or have problems getting needed care than adults with similar problems in other highincome countries, a survey released yesterday found. The poll of more than 18,000 adults in the United States and 10 other highincome countries found that Americans were most likely to have problems getting needed care because of the cost, or to have medical debt, according to data released by the Commonwealth Fund. “Despite spending far more on health care than

any other country, the United States practically stands alone when it comes to people with illness or chronic conditions having difficulty affording health

care and paying medical bills,” Commonwealth Fund president Karen Davis said in a statement. “This is a clear indication of the urgent need for Affordable Care Act reforms geared toward improving coverage and controlling health care costs.” The 2011 telephone survey included people who said they were in fair or poor health, those who had surgery in the prior two years, or those who had been treated for a serious illness or injury in the prior year. It found that 42 percent of the 1,200 U.S. adults with health problems in the survey went without care because of costs. REUTERS

Researchers say: “Live a little!”

Salt study: It’s not all bad Reducing salt in the diets of the general population may not have an overall positive health impact, according to a review of more than 160 scientific studies published yesterday. The review found that while cutting down on salt reduced blood pressure in people with normal or high blood pressure, it also caused increases in some compounds that can adversely affect people’s heart health.

ARKANSAS. Wal-Mart Stores erroneously portrayed its ambitions as a health care provider in a document sent to potential vendors recently, leading to the mistaken impression that the world’s largest retailer wanted to become a national primary care provider, according to a statement from the corporation. The document says that Wal-Mart sought to become “the largest provider of primary health care services in the nation.” The retailer yesterday said that formal document sent to vendors, known as a “request for information,” was “overwritten and incorrect.” “We are not building a national, integrated, lowcost primary care health care platform,” a Wal-Mart doctor said.

How to Test Us Take your valuable items to other dealers before bringing them to us. Have them give you legitimate written offers. Then bring your items and your written offers to us. No one can guarantee to pay the highest prices all the time. But we believe the buyers we have chosen will beat most legitimate written offers. Why Are We Telling You To Get Prices From Others? Our buyers find it much easier to buy items of value from their customers after they have had previous offers. So it is in our own self interest to have you get written offers before coming to us. We also find that our customers are happier because they have the peace of mind of knowing they received a fair price. Why Our Buyers May Be Able To Pay More Our group of buyers will be here for only a few days. But in those few days, some of our buyers will buy more than many dealers buy in a year. Because of the volume of merchandise they handle, some of our buyers have developed world-wide markets and clients to liquidate their purchases at the best prices, which is one of the keys to why they can pay more than other dealers. What Makes Us Different? Most dealers who buy and sell items of value specialize in only a few areas. As a result, they are likely to make low offers for items in markets they are not familiar with. For example, almost all jewelers specialize in new items. They do not often deal with old or used watches, which means they are unfamiliar with the true markets for such items. So if you have a used watch to sell, chances are a jeweler will make an offer on the low side because he does not want to make a mistake and pay too much. The same thing applies to almost all items of value, such as lady items, art, jewelry, etc., that you bring to normal dealers. Anderson, Carter, Bascom & Assoc. and Estate Buyer by MJD is different. Our volume buying has allowed us to bring together a large group of knowledgeable buyers. And although we do not control what our buyers pay, we believe they are comfortable paying prices that beat legitimate written offers from other dealers.

“UP TO” PRICES IMPORTANT: All prices are based on rarity & condition. If an item is in poor condition, its value will be low. If an item is very rare, and in superb condition, it might be worth more than the “up to” prices listed. For example, a 1919 10¢ could be worth $1,400 in very high-quality condition or less than $1 in poor condition. In most cases, the “up to” prices listed in this advertisement are for items of exceptional rarity and quality. Chances are, you will not have those items. But we are willing to take the time to look at your items, just in case free of charge and give you our opinion. SEE NEXT 2 PAGES FOR MORE ITEMS WE ARE LOOKING FOR AND LOCATIONS!

It seems that with Jessica Sutta’s “Show Me,” we have our first real example of a song that is derivative of pop’s leading Lady. Listen to the robotic way Sutta delivers the line, “bow, bow, have you ever thought about” and it’s almost in the exact same cadence as the “walk, walk fashion baby” part of “Bad Romance.” These complaints are not to suggest that Sutta, a former Pussycat Doll, won’t eventually find her own identity. “Show Me” is a fine song. The melody is strong, and the thumping beat has helped it hover at the top of the Billboard dance chart for a few weeks. And the lyrics are interesting: In a pop song, historically the most empty of all expressions, the singer is pleading for you to reveal “everything hidden in your heart, all your fears.” PAT HEALY

Folklore says that oysters should be eaten only in months with letter R’s in them — and right now we’re hitting our stride Where to eat the best bivalves in New York

ow that we’ve officially started the third month of the letter R streak, the time is ripe for a self-guided tour of New York’s oyster bars. True, the old saying holds little sway today (oysters are just as safe to eat in May, June, July and August as they are in any month with an R in its name), but don’t that let stop you from overindulging this month.

The Blue Ribbon flagship has been satiating late-night raw bar cravings for nearly 20 years, so they’re clearly on to something. Make friends at the intimate bar with a round of oyster shooters — a freshly shucked oyster served with vodka, a dash of Blue Ribbon hot sauce and a dash of Blue Ribbon cocktail sauce.

If raw seafood isn’t your thing, The Dutch offers fried oyster sandwiches as well. Served on a bite-sized sesame brioche bun with pickled okra sauce, they’re just begging to be topped with the restaurant’s housemade hot sauce, a fiery mix of fresno peppers, poblanos, anaheims and jalapenos.

Niners ready to Gore Giants

San Fran running back on historic streak Leaky New York line better prepare Harbaugh leans on run

MICHAEL ZAGARIS/GETTY IMAGES

Brady had three turnovers against the Giants.

PATRIOTS VS. JETS

Jets ‘D’ wary of struggling Patriots With Peyton Manning out for the season with a neck injury, Jets head coach Rex Ryan called the Patriots Tom Brady the best quarterback in the league. But as good as Brady is, he’s still having a down year. Over the past three games — two of them New England losses — Brady has thrown four interceptions and been sacked eight times. New York is smelling blood and the target they’re circling is Brady. “They spread you out; they’re real disciplined,” Jets cornerback Kyle Wilson said. “When a guy’s

not doing their job, that’s exactly where they’re going to hit. We got to understand matchups, because that’s a big aspect of the game for New England.” There is frustration in Foxboro as they try to pinpoint why Brady is tossing so many more interceptions. Last season, he was picked off just four times. This year, that number is already at 10. “I think you can look at each play and obviously there’s something that went wrong. A couple balls have been tipped, a couple balls I’m sure he’d like to have back. I’d say for the most part, I think he’s throwing to the right guy,” Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said. “The first time up there, we didn’t play some things — technique — as well as we should have,” Wilson said. KRISTIAN DYER

The Giants are coming off an impressive road win against the Patriots, but this Sunday’s matchup with the upstart 49ers may actually be the tougher challenge. Sure, the Patriots have all-world quarterback Tom Brady, but what San Francisco brings may be more detrimental to Big Blue’s defense — a power running game. Frank Gore is perhaps the most talented of the Niners’ skill position players and the offense has been molded around him. The seven-year vet has gashed opponents this season and has rewarded rookie head coach Jim Harbaugh’s faith with a superb season (782 yards, 4.9 yards per carry and five touchdowns). “You know they’re going run. Gore has [a franchiserecord] five-straight games with 100 yards and they have good receivers and a tight end who’s very rare,” Coughlin said. “Plus, they

MIDSEASON AWARD TOUR Fantasy sports

ADAM LEVITAN ALEVITAN@METRO.US

Break out the stilettos; it’s time to hit the red carpet. With each team having played at least eight games, we can take a gander back at what we’ve seen.

Everyone knows that Fred Jackson is fantasy’s MVP, Chris Johnson is the biggest bust and Cam Newton is the rookie of the year. But what about these categories:

Brown bag Antonio Brown has racked up 34 targets in his last three games. And with Emmanuel Sanders (knee) out 2-3 weeks, he’ll sustain that. Brown is a big-time playmaker in what is now a pass-first offense. Don’t be afraid to ride him.

Injury of the year It’s unlikely that owners were able to overcome Jamaal Charles’s seasonending Week 2 ACL tear. He had no clear handcuff and getting running back help during the season is brutal. While Kenny Britt’s knee injury

Top NFL pickups

NFL news

was painful, there are enough wideouts out there to overcome it.

Best performance

NFL handcuﬀs Depth isn’t as important as handcuffs now that the bye weeks are gone. Some must-owns:

Ben Tate, RB, HOU — If Arian Foster went down, Tate would be a top-5 kind of option. The Texans’ oﬀensive line is dominant.

Kendall Hunter, RB, SF — This runheavy offense is a back’s dream. Frank Gore has an ankle tweak now.

Matt Flynn, QB, GB — Owners can’t risk losing Aaron Rodgers. Flynn would be a top-10 option if given the chance for the Pack.

In Week 4 against the Broncos, Aaron Rodgers piled up more fantasy points than Vernon Davis or Mario Manningham have all season. He threw for 408 yards, ran for 36 more and scored six total touchdowns.

Top waiver add Victor Cruz wasn’t drafted coming out of UMass. He also wasn’t drafted in any fantasy leagues. But he has bucked the odds, establishing himself as a highly-productive No. 3 receiver and outscoring guys like Larry Fitzgerald and Brandon Marshall along the way.

Roy Helu RB, Redskins Locked in as the every-down back in an offense that loves to check down to its backs. Major PPR upside.

Aaron Rodgers is on pace to score 52 total touchdowns this season.

Laurent Robinson WR, Cowboys With Miles Austin out 2-4 weeks, Robinson is going to be a target hog. In this offense, he’ll have WR2 value.

Cashman won’t rush signings

Those expecting any significant Yankee transactions in the next few weeks can plan to be disappointed. In between various charitable appearances, general manager Brian Cashman is getting a gauge for the free agent starting pitching market, led by C.J. Wilson and Yu Darvish.
