Pipe bomber caught, terror averted: NYPD Officials say Washington Heights man plotted to bomb cop cars Also targeted post offices and military members Was preparing to test bomb A Manhattan man spent years plotting to detonate nail-studded bombs in the city, but was nabbed before he could carry out a vicious attack, officials said last night. Mayor Michael Bloomberg, along with Police Commissioner Ray Kelly and Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, announced last night that Jose Pimentel was arrested on terrorism charges Saturday afternoon. Bloomberg described Pimentel, 27, as a Dominican Republic native who is now a U.S. citizen and a convert to Islam.

Quoted

“He was not part of a larger conspiracy.” MAYOR MICHAEL BLOOMBERG

“The suspect was a socalled ‘lone wolf,’ motivated by his own resentment of the presence of American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as inspired by al Qaeda propaganda,” Bloomberg said. His targets were police cars, post offices, military members returning to the States and a Bayonne, N.J., police station, Bloomberg said. Officers were investigating him since 2009, Kelly said.

Pimentel, who learned to create the bombs from al Qaeda’s magazine article “How to Build a Bomb in the Kitchen of Your Mom,” planned to test the bombs in mailboxes, Kelly said. Bloomberg said officers detonated a bomb like Pimentel’s — showing a video of a parked car igniting into a fireball. This brings the total terrorist plots against New York to 14, Bloomberg said. Vance said Pimentel could face life in prison. ALISON BOWEN

Metro’s Man and Woman of the Year:

Take your pick For the past two years, Metro has asked its readers to nominate the man and woman who affected news headlines to the greatest extent over the year. Today, we launch our 2011 Man and Woman of the Year event — but as we do so, we acknowledge that the winners this year may be a group of people rather than individuals. How can we ignore the

MAN AND WOMAN OF THE YEAR

2011

claims of the Occupy Wall Street movement, whose activities have dominated the news headlines for the last two months? Others may feel it right to nominate the 1 percent. We feel certain that many readers will wish to nominate Navy SEAL Team 6, the group of warriors who killed Osama bin Laden. As we look back over

2011, we remember the people of Egypt, the activists of the Arab Spring and those who fought for regime change in Libya. Naturally, some readers will wish to nominate individuals. President Barack Obama ordered the bin Laden mission; and on the basis that he was hardly out of the headlines all year until his death last month, who can ignore the

nomination of Muammar Gaddafi? When the U.S. federal government faced a shutdown in April, House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner was in the thick of the conflict. Also in April, Prince William and Kate Middleton had the world enthralled with their fairy tale wedding at Westminster Abbey. METRO PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES

In the Metro edition of Monday, Dec. 12, we will publish a shortlist of those receiving the most nominations, and will invite readers to vote for their favorites. Metro’s Man and Woman (or People) of the Year will be announced in Metro’s special end-of-year edition, published on Monday, Dec. 26.

Casey Anthony was acquitted of murdering her daughter Caylee in a July trial that was followed closely by millions. 6. The music world lost a tortured genius when Amy Winehouse was found dead at her London home in July. She drank herself to death, but leaves a lasting musical legacy.

To nominate someone from Man or Woman of the Year, e-mail us at mwoty@metro.us and tell us, in 100 words or fewer, why they deserve the title. Nominations will be accepted until 5 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 9. Readers will be able to vote on a shortlist of nominees from Monday, Dec. 12 to Thursday, Dec. 22.

Live, love, play: Making magic Metro is collaborating with nonprofits to give out toys for the holidays You can donate gifts to needy children in the city One charity helps in ways from DJing parties to providing books to children in hospitals

Live Love Dance’s founder DJed a Halloween party for children earlier this year.

As Metro’s office slowly fills with toys as part of the Metro Magic holiday toy drive, Metro will be partnering with several nonprofits in the city to distribute the toys to needy New York City children. One of the groups we're working with is Live Love Dance, which was started this year by Jonathan Lopez, a local DJ. Lopez told Metro that while traveling as a DJ, he was touched by the underprivileged children he met. Live Love Dance is a one-man show entirely run by Lopez. Although he receives some help from family and friends, he is in charge of most of the responsibilities. Live Love Dance helps children in a variety of ways. It’s partnered with Metro to collect toys for

“I wanted to give back in any way possible.” LOPEZ kids in New York City. In the past, Lopez has worked with children in hospitals, providing them gifts, books and toys, and this Halloween, he DJed a free dance party for kids in New Jersey. To raise money, Lopez sells T-shirts he designed on Livelovedance.org. He is also planning a fundraising holiday dinner next month. “I personally think kids are often the ones that don’t have a voice and don’t have a say in things,” Lopez said. “I want to be their voice to ask for help on their behalf.” MARY ANN GEORGANTOPOULOS

The Maasai are Kenya’s most-known tribe, regarded as a mythical warrior people in the African bush But reality is far from romantic Some 4,000 live in squalor in a slum on the fringes of Nairobi’s international airport Metro visits the world of the ‘Slumdog Maasai’

Pasei and his favorite wife Kiserian enjoy the conveniences of modern living, while their lives are still steeped in Maasai tradition. JORDAN POUILLE / METRO WORLD NEWS

‘T

his is the plane from Switzerland. Always on time,” says 55-year-old Pasei, as he gazes at the sky beside his favorite wife Kiserian. He wears a bright red “shuka” and a fake gold watch. Pasei’s community lives on a tiny and dry piece of land near the road to Mombasa, in the middle of a polluted factory zone between Jomo Kenyatta airport and Nairobi National Park. “Two years ago, a terrible drought drove us out of the provinces,” Pasei gloomily recalls. “It killed our cattle, so we had to move to the city for food and water.” He fled his native Samburu province in northern Kenya, a region ravaged by drought, hunger and disease. All of Pasei’s eight wives have their heads shaved, with beautiful rings and ornaments on their stretched earlobes. They

touch each other on the forehead with their hand — their way of saying “hi.” But it’s Kiserian who built Pasei’s “manyatta,” a small circular house made with cattle dung, mud, ash and human urine, all of it known to be waterproof. Inside is total darkness. The couple sleeps in separate beds. Pasei’s 18 children and other wives live in surrounding huts, made with corrugated sheet metal. They have a few goats

and sheep to tend to. “We sell their milk for 40 shillings ($0.43) a litre for the factory workers nearby, and we eat their meat on special occasions,” Pasei informs us. For a living, men work as security guards in supermarkets. Women handcraft necklaces for the National Park’s souvenir shops or the Maasai market in Nairobi. “But we have to compete with the Chinese,” Pasei says. Rival Chinese workers export Maasai merchandise from the factories of Guangdong. In this Maasai slum, money is scarce; children don’t have toys and rarely go to the local fee-paying schools. “We can only pay for a week of school from time to time,” Pasei says. In this male-dominated community, girls are not allowed to use public toilets provided to them by the factory nearby. Kids suffer from chronic diarrhea and pneumonia.

So what are Nairobi officials doing for them? They have yet to deal with a much bigger issue: Kibera, a slum of one million people — one of Africa’s biggest — in the south of the city.

T

hen, the Maasai’s last hope to escape misery might come from one Christian pastor, in return for some little effort. “I want them first to give up circumcision, a painful ceremony for boys,” says Reverend Ondarir, who lives in a little hut nearby. “Although illegal, female circumcision is still far much ingrained. Women fear they won’t be able to get married without it.” Meanwhile, the Kenyan government would like them to stop hunting for lions in the neighboring National Park, much loved by tourists. “But how can a Maasai still call himself a warrior if he cannot kill a lion?” Pasei asks.

Reverend Ondarir has lots of projects for them but no money yet. “We need a generator to produce electricity at night so as to make the area safer,” he says. These 4,000 Maasai live in an unsafe, neglected area even local taxi drivers never dare go. As a result, the Maasai’s famous swords are used to catch lions and to keep thugs away. After Metro says goodbye to our new Maasai friends, five men carrying stones block our way out. “It’s our land too, you cannot just come, say hello and go … unless you give us your money.” Pasei and his folks suddenly rushed and yelled at them, successfully showing off their stick-fighting ability. Even in Nairobi slums, the Maasai warriors are still feared. JORDAN POUILLE letters@metro.us

METRO WORLD NEWS IN NAIROBI

Modern refugees KENYA. Settled in remote villages, the Maasai have been able to adapt to the most hostile environments. Such people know about so-called “modern civilization” and comfort, but envy nothing and no one. Most of them were removed from their territories in Kenya and Tanzania in the 1990s and gathered inside touristic national parks and reserves, with the complicity of some corrupt Maasai leaders. On the Maasai’s historical and now privatized lands flourish hundreds of flower greenhouses — where most of our roses are coming from. MWN/JP

‘Libyan drama,’ Act 2: Gaddafi son captured How it happened “We fired in the air and into the ground in front of them,� said Ahmed Ammar, one of the 15 fighters who captured the Gaddafi heir. “Who are you?� said al-Ajami Ali al-Atari, the leader of the squad. “Abdelsalam,� came the reply. “I am a camel herder.� (A common name, it means “servant of peace� in Arabic; Saif al-Islam’s real name means “Sword of Islam.�) Ammar said: “I know who you are. I know you.� Atari says, “Saif jumped out and tried to take cover behind the car.� “But when we told him to surrender he did,� Atari said.

Muammar’s favorite son pushed against the dictator, fled Libya and then returned to fight his father’s war The chic black sweater and jeans were gone. So too the combat T-shirt of his televised last stand in Tripoli. But the rimless glasses, framing those piercing eyes above the fine nose, gave him away despite the flowing nomad robes held close across his face. Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, doctor of the London School of Economics, was once a reformer but became the scourge of those rebeling against his dictator father. Now he’s a prisoner bundled aboard an old Libyan air force transport plane near the oildrilling outpost of Obari,

deep in the Sahara desert. The interim government’s spokesman billed it as the “final act of the Libyan drama.� But there would be no closing soliloquy from the scion of the dynasty that Muammar Gaddafi, self-styled “king of kings,� had once hoped might rule Africa.

The capture of Saif al-Islam is the latest dramatic chapter in the series of revolts that have swept the Arab world. The first uprising toppled the Ben Ali government in Tunisia early this year. The upheaval spread to Egypt, forcing out longtime ruler Hosni Mubarak in February, and then swept Libya, where the capital Tripoli fell to rebels this summer and Muammar Gaddafi died after being beaten and abused by captors last month. It’s now threatening the Assad family’s four-decade grip on Syria. REUTERS

Saif al-Islam, seen here in Tripoli in the early hours of Aug. 23, 2011, was the smiling face of the GaddaďŹ power structure. He won personal credibility at the highest echelons of international society — especially in London, where he helped tidy up the reputation of Libya with reformist politics.

Newt slithers into lead for GOP race

Reports indicate failure for debt deal

Gingrich benefiting from Cain fallout Republican candidate takes little heat from mortgager payouts

sional deficit-reduction committee is likely to concede failure in its efforts to strike a deal barring an unforeseen breakthrough to bridge deep partisan differences over taxes and spending, congressional aides said. The announcement of failure would come today, aides from the Republican and Democratic camps told Reuters yesterday, shortly after several lawmakers on the bipartisan 12-member “super committee” cast strong doubts about a deal on the Sunday talk shows. On NBC's "Meet the Press" program, neither Republican Senator Jon Kyl nor Democratic Senator John Kerry gave any indication a deal was near.

WASHINGTON. The congres-

ALEX WONG/GETTY IMAGES

Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich has roared into the lead of the Republican nominating race, brushing off concerns about his work for a troubled housing company, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed. Twenty-four percent of registered Republican voters would support the former speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives if the contest were held now, an increase of eight percentage points from roughly a week ago, according to the poll, which was conducted on Nov. 18-19. Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who has stayed near the top of most polls, gar-

nered support from 22 percent of Republicans, slumping 6 percentage points from the last survey conducted on November 10-11 and ending up essen-

tially tied with Gingrich. Despite allegations of questionable business ties, Gingrich is the latest favorite of conservative Republicans eager for an alternative to Romney, whom they see as too moderate. In a sign of further relief for Gingrich, 46 percent of Republicans said the revelations that he had received up to $1.8 million in consulting fees from mortgage giant Freddie Mac had no impact on their view of the candidate. Thirty-one percent said the issue left them with a less favorable opinion of Gingrich, who has criticized Freddie Mac sharply in the past. REUTERS

Police pepper spray probed at UC Davis

CAIRO. Emboldened by their success in toppling Hosni Mubarak nine months ago, experienced protesters in Cairo’s Tahrir Square encouraged each other on Sunday to hold their ground as the police fired canister after canister of tear gas. “Don’t run, that just provokes them to fire more,” shouted one protester to others fleeing a hail of metal cans. REUTERS

After initially supporting the brutal cop crackdown, Calif. university head promises a quick investigation The University of California, Davis said it would launch an investigation over video footage that appeared to show campus police using pepper spray against seated student protesters at close range. YouTube video footage of

a policeman in riot gear using pepper spray on a group of roughly a dozen student protesters in the university’s quad area spread quickly on the Internet. “Yesterday was not a day that would make anyone on our campus proud,” UC

Davis Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi wrote. “The police used pepper spray against the students who were blocking the way. The use of pepper spray as shown on the video is chilling to us all and raises many questions.” REUTERS Police who sprayed peaceful protesters have been suspended with pay pending an investigation.

The fallout LOS ANGELES. The move announcing the task force came after Katehi came under criticism from members of her

own faculty. “You are responsible for the police violence directed against students on the UC Davis quad on Nov. 18, 2011,” one assistant professor wrote. REUTERS

The death toll since the violence erupted on Saturday reached at least five, according to the Health Ministry, cited by the state news agency. Other medical sources said it was more than 11 on Sunday alone.

Metro’s Dorothy Robinson shares her take on the world of gossip

Is Demi Moore into women? Ashton Kutcher’s alleged infidelity may have been the last straw in his marriage to Demi Moore, but sources tell Star magazine that the pair’s “open marriage” had been a strain for years. “Everyone in Hollywood knows about their arrangement, but they’ve managed to keep it a secret from the general public,” a source says. “Demi is attracted to women just as much as men, so she didn’t always get all she needed from Ashton. She was cool with Ashton having flirtatious

ticularly hard to take. First, there’s the role of Catwoman in Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight Rises,” for which Biel hoped to audition. “[That was] another one that got away. I was gutted,” she tells Elle. But that’s not all: “I felt terrified when I auditioned for ‘Les Mis-

erables,’ the movie that Tom Hooper is doing,” she

says. “I was terrified to sing in front of him. I auditioned for Fantine and I sang ‘I Dreamed a Dream.’ I didn’t get it. And I would have loved it.” Hathaway eventually won that role as well. This is strange. Why in

Talking points

Perry, Brand to start a family When her tour wraps up this week, Katy Perry is reportedly planning to take some time off to “work on her family,” according Hollyscoop. As to what needs work, sources say Perry and husband Russell Brand are looking to expand their household with a baby. “I would love to have children.

I’ll be delivering in these heels!” Simpson says she’s been enjoying the chance to try less-than-traditional maternity clothing. “I like wearing things more fitted,” she says. “You want to show off your bump. It’s just so fun. You don’t want to wear muumuus so you can moo around town.”

It’s not really that cool.” But if she were to start dating someone, she’d need him to take charge, she admits. “You know, I can’t really be the man for you. I don’t want to have to be,” Rihanna says. “I’m the man at work all the time. I do put a lot into my job. Most of my time, if not all of it. It definitely affects my Rihanna personal life.”

First Broadway revival of Stephen Schwartz’s ’70s hit musical opened Nov. 7 This one’s been modernized to entertain today’s masses, but still oversimplified It’s a premise you might know: A benevolent shepherd teaches open-hearted pupils how to be better people in the name of salvation. Stephen Schwartz’s hits (“Day by Day,” “Turn Back, O Man”) might also sound familiar from the original musical off-Broadway in 1971 (it closed on Broadway in 1977), or the subsequent movie in 1973. This family musical might not exactly go part and parcel with a happy ending, but at least you can put off thinking about that until after the first act.

with religion, as the story is told through approachable parables padded in high-energy humor and pop culture references. Hunter Parrish (“Spring Awakening,” “Weeds”) plays a handsome, happy Jesus whose grinning innocence sometimes belies the intelligence that such a powerful leader of men would likely possess. Nine ensemble actors answer to

their real names and showcase individual strengths onstage; each steals the spotlight in turn during his or her featured solo. There’s a pure, contagious energy not only onstage but on all sides of the theaterin-the-round — the highlight of which is wooden floorboards that open to reveal splashy pools of water or even trampolines. “Godspell” will always be hampered by the setback of being, well, “Godspell.” It lacks a cohesive plot and is often best received when it’s used as a canvas for a theme or ideology, aside from the obvious. But it’s hard to fault

Daniel Goldstein’s production for that omission, considering it leaves room for us to appreciate the cast and its enviable intimacy (we want to get onstage and join the disciples, and are actually welcomed to during intermission). The show’s biggest detriment is the sudden shift to sobriety in the second act. We haven’t been able to know Jesus as more than a mouthpiece before his downfall, so the sudden bid for our emotional involvement is what one might call a Hail Mary.

Hunter Parrish stars as Jesus in the Broadway revival of “Godspell.”

‘Breaking Dawn’ draws $283.5 million worldwide The new “Twilight” vampire movie opened with a massive $283.5 million in worldwide ticket sales over the weekend as passionate fans filled theaters for the beginning of a two-part finale for the hugely popular supernatural love story. “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1” captured an estimated $139.5 million in the United States and Canada, distributor Summit Entertainment said yesterday. That ranked as the fifth biggest domestic opening of all time. The movie’s performance beat studio forecasts for the film, which shows young lovestruck human Bella wedding vampire Edward and becoming pregnant. Summit had predicted as much as $125 million domestically.

Always nice to see two (married) teenagers in love.

Internationally, “Breaking Dawn” added $144 million in 54 countries over the weekend. The movie cost about $110 million to make. The domestic opening ranked as the year’s secondhighest, behind only the “Harry Potter” finale over the summer. “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2” pulled in a record $169 million during its debut weekend in July.

Taylor Lautner on his toughest scene

ANDREW COOPER

In ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1,’ the walking ab has to ‘imprint’ ‘Because what is imprinting? What do you look like when you imprint? I mean, those were all the questions going through my head’

For the fourth installment of the “Twilight” franchise, Taylor Lautner knew he was going to be in for some pretty bizarre stuff — even for a franchise about vampires, werewolves and moody teens. His character, the werewolf Jacob, finds himself in the awkward position of “imprinting” on Renesmee, the newborn daughter of Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson). “That was ... tough,” Lautner admits. “Because what is imprinting? What do you look like when you imprint? I mean, those were all the questions going through my head.” For the uninitiated, imprinting is what happens when a werewolf finds his soulmate, at least in author Stephenie Meyer’s world.

Those pesky Gus Van Sant rumors Earlier this month, it was reported that Lautner would be starring in a movie directed by “Milk” filmmaker Gus Van Sant. Lautner, however, is tight-lipped about the rumored project, which is said to be based on a New Yorker article. “It’s very premature, so I really don’t have much to say now other than the fact that I really, really respect and would love the opportunity to work with him.”

“Luckily we had Stephenie on set the entire time, and trust me, I asked her a million times, ‘OK, explain to me one more time what imprinting is exactly?’ and ‘What is he doing when he’s imprinting?’ It was very, very confusing,” Lautner says. The business with the baby was something he’d been anticipating, of course, and he admits that while he gets the overall romance of the story, it does seem like an odd consolation prize. “I get a baby? Yeah, yeah. I have gotten over that by now,” he says. “I remember the first time reading the book, I was so confused. I was like, ‘Wait. He’s trying to get Bella the whole time, and he strikes out so he goes with her child?’ It really took a second.”

With filming on the franchise complete, Lautner is happy to put some aspects of “Twilight” behind him. Such as “not wearing clothes,” he says with a laugh. “I mean, I love Vancouver, but we have to film when it’s cold and rainy and gross, and the sun comes out and we’ve got to stop filming.” Joking aside, though, Lautner is nothing but grateful. “I honestly can’t even think of complaints or anything that I wouldn’t want to do because of everything it’s given me,” he says. “I’m just crazy thankful for what this has given all of us and the opportunities it’s given us as actors.” NED EHRBAR METRO WORLD NEWS IN LOS ANGELES

You can feast on your favorite Thanksgiving foods without finishing out the meal feeling heavy, bloated and blah. Here’s how:

Lighten up the classics. Sometimes you have to have the real thing (there’s no messing with mom’s stuffing). When it comes to less hallowed “supporting dishes,” browse the Web for slimmed-down versions that make smart substitutions to trim excess calories and fat. For a healthy alternative to sugary sweet potato casserole, visit www.metro.us for my recipe.

Plan ahead. You know your main meal will be somewhat over-the-top in terms of calories, so plan to eat more lightly during the day. Your best bets are lean protein and vegetable-based options, such as an egg white and veggie omelet for breakfast and a big salad topped with a can of chunk light tuna for lunch. Stuff only the turkey (not yourself). Enjoy a bit of everything you like, but keep your portions in check. One plate of food filled with your favorite festive treats (no seconds, with the exception of veggies), one alcoholic beverage (if you drink) and a small serving of dessert (or a sliver of several items) is the perfect amount to satisfy without going overboard.

Say bye-bye to leftovers. If you’re the host, pack up anything that might tempt you in subsequent days. Both your guests and your waistline will give thanks. Keep your portions in check this Thanksgiving.

Get back on track. The day after Thanksgiving, hit the gym and go right back to your regular, healthy eating routine.

To give or not to give at work Should you be hunting for gifts for co-workers on Black Friday? Expert tips for keeping the holidays happy — and simple — at work After spending 11 months as merely co-workers, the beginning of December heralds feelings of peace in cubicles and goodwill towards bosses. But before you make additions to your Black Friday shopping list, consider these tips from Lahle Wolfe, About.com’s “Women in Business” expert. “With everyone worrying about their jobs and the economy, the last thing people should have to worry about is spending money on gifts they’re unsure of,” she says. THE BOSS FACTOR Should you even give your

On the wording Wishing someone “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Hanukkah” is perfectly fine, provided you’re sure that’s what the person celebrates. If there’s a supervisor a gift? It depends. “Assess it the same way as that aunt you see once a year,” advises Wolfe. “What’s the relationship? Can you name the things outside the office that your boss likes? If not, then you don’t

question, go with “Happy Holidays,” even if it can sound stuffy. “In an office environment, handle it like you would in a public school,” says Wolfe. “If you’re uncertain how to say something, ‘happy holidays’ is a great neutral thing to say.” know this person well enough to give them a gift.” While Wolfe does recommend homemade gifts or baked goods for closer peers, she discourages them for bosses — these can be interpreted as eiTHOMAS NORTHCUT

ther intimate or unprofessional, neither of which you're going for. BEWARE OF THE GAG GIFT Increasingly, Wolfe sees offices encouraging gag gifts as part of “Secret Santa” or Pollyanna-style giving to alleviate pressure. But, she warns, this comes with its own set of problems. “A lot of offices do this, and it tends to make people uncomfortable and turn into teasing,” she says. “When you target gifts like this, stick with something very neutral. Go with something you might give a child, so that’s why it’s a gag.” Meaning, no cigars for the guy who is always on a smoke break, no watches for the co-worker who is always late, and no booze for the girl who can’t say no to happy hour.

You have enough going on without playing office Santa. Check your list twice to avoid stress or giving inappropriate gifts.

Never give ... Wolfe is a fan of the iTunes gift card, where $10 can go a long way in getting someone through a long Monday morning. But whatever you do, don't give these: Perfume and jewelry

“Perfume or jewelry are sort of intimate — it says that you’re paying attention,” cautions Wolfe. “If it’s something not generic enough that a guy or a girl could equally enjoy, it’s probably a little too personal.” Scented items Many people are allergic to artificial scents or are just

very particular about which ones they like. Again, cautions Wolfe, some people could interpret these as conveying intimacy — scents are personal. Anything religious Generic holiday ornaments and greeting cards are fine, but stay away from anything that’s directly faith-related.

The hottest IT jobs for 2012 The more time we spend plugged in, the more new jobs evolve Three careers that are heating up GETTY IMAGES

The progression of technology brings the expansion of IT jobs, and 2012 will be no exception. With more businesses going digital and phrases like “cloud storage� becoming commonplace, the world of IT careers is budding with new opportunities. Robert Half Technology just released their list of the hottest jobs for 2012, many of them falling under the IT umbrella. Here are three that are especially promising:

There are now jobs to ensure that we have "positive digital experiences."

JULIA WEST

letters@metro.us

1 2 3 Mobile applications developer

User experience designer

Not surprisingly, this job comes out on top. Considering the long list of things you can do from your phone — banking, gaming and even video chatting — it’s no wonder that this field is booming. “Mobile development has surpassed Web development and is now leading in shaping future professionals,� says Leonardo Mattiazzi, vice president of international business at IT services company Ci&T.

UX designers, to those in the know, “create positive digital experiences,� according to Robert Half Technology.

More international students coming to US for grad school Chinese students lead way, but the Middle East and India are sending more students for degrees as well STOCKBYTE

American campuses are becoming increasingly popular destinations for international students who want to attend grad school, according to new research. The Council of Graduate schools reports that new enrollment from foreign students increased by eight percent in 2011. There hasn’t been gain that significant since 2006. International students make up about 14.2 percent of the country’s entire graduate student body. Several U.S. graduate enrollment programs from other countries have progressed, most notably China. The presence of Chinese grad students in America grew by 21 percent. That’s compared to a growth of 20 percent, 16 percent and 14 percent in each of the past three years. Coming to the U.S. for grad school is also popular in the Middle East, which had an enrollment eight percent higher than last year. India also had a modest gain with two percent more students in American programs this year. South Korea is a different story, though. With a steady decrease of students from the country coming to enroll in

Graduate schools are attracting more international students.

U.S. grad schools, this year the rate fell flat. The most popular programs among international students are arts and humanities, business, education, engineering, life sciences, physical and Earth sciences, social sciences and psychology. Private institutions remain more popular than public colleges. CASSANDRA GARRISON cassandra.garrison@metro.us

Some support for protesters Counter-protesters to the OWS movement chant “Get a job!” Problem is that the protesters are demonstrating against the fact that corporate America is back to making profits yet won’t give them jobs. DAVID DIBELLO, BROOKLYN As a small-business owner watching the slowly controlled demise of the greatest country on Earth, I am appalled by the amount of people that are bad-mouthing the Tea Party or OWS protests. Wake up and notice the government intentionally de-

ALEX TISCHENKO, VIA E-MAIL

The OWS movement has some valid points, but corporate greed and corruption do not begin and end with Wall Street. They should be protesting in the halls of Congress and the White House. Our politicians are bought and paid for by big business. PAT CROCE, GREENWOOD LAKE

The backlash is piling up, too RE: “OCCUPY HEARTS AND MINDS”: I can’t agree with

Horoscope

It’s apparent that the OWS movement has run its course. The core message of America being taken over by corporations is being lost. OWS is only antagonizing the 99 percent. OWS needs the people to support them, not fear them. LEONARD

Mr. Simms that the OWS movement has countless supporters. Americans are much more well-tempered and well-behaved than people in other countries. In these tough times we have to feed and raise children, work and buy goods — and we deserve good rest, too. Occupants are turning to extremists very easily and this nuisance has to come to an end. There are plenty of jobs around, but these runnynosed youths want $60K right now. That will never happen. So do not invite us, Mr. Simms, to participate in vandalism, hooliganism and other “isms.”

Scorpio Oct. 24-Nov. 22. Find yourself an environment that is free from outside interference, and you’ll have one of your more productive days. Sagittarius Nov. 23-Dec. 21. Your farsightedness is remarkable, and it could help you visualize exactly the right game plan to follow. Work on some future hopes that you’d like to bring into being. Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19. It’s not always possible, but your perspicuity could help you visualize what’s coming down the line, which will aid you in marshaling the appropriate forces. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 19. Have confidence in your own convictions. If you believe you have a good idea for something, don’t let others discourage you from following through on it. Pisces Feb. 20-March 20. Watch out for someone who tries to get you to change something that is of personal benefit in order to make it into a windfall for them. Of course, they won’t phrase it that way. Aries March 21-April 19. If you’re reluctant to make a necessary decision in a timely manner, someone you’d disapprove of is likely to step up and make that call for you. Don’t

WILSON, SPRINGFIELD GARDENS

Yelling in the streets gets you nowhere. A better idea is to fight corruption from our living rooms by contacting elected officials and voicing our complaints in writing. FRANK ST. GEORGE, NEW YORK

It is disappointing that the most publicized conflict during the recent escalated Wall Street protests has been with police officers and not with the greed-obsessed financial powers that inspired Occupy.

EAGLES 17 | GIANTS 10

Up next: at Saints (7-3)

Dec. 4: vs. Packers

What went wrong ... Up and down Eli — While Vince Young had an excuse for his poor play, Eli Manning had no such crutch for being equally sporadic. Manning finished 18-of-35 and was largely ineffective, as he was under siege most of the night thanks to a manic Eagles’ pass rush that had to pick up the slack for an uneven offense.

Eli Manning was sacked three times, including a sack and fumble by Jason Babin on the Giants’ final play. GETTY IMAGES

Running back need not apply — The Giants might as well follow the lead of the defending Super Bowl champion Packers and think of the running game as a necessary nuisance. Once again the Giants’ rushing game was horrific. It’s obvious Ahmad Bradshaw has been missed, but that still might not have mattered because Big Blue hasn’t been committed to the run all season

FUMBLED AWAY 3 Giants lose second straight as memories of late-season swoons return Manning fumbles on the final drive Now locked in tie atop NFC East

Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper — Riley Cooper, who had not registered a single catch heading into the contest, burned the Giants with a clutch eightyard touchdown reception to give the Eagles the late 17-10 lead. TONY WILLIAMS

What went right for the Giants ... Welcome back — The Giants welcomed Vince Young the way most top-notch defenses do to backup quarterbacks — rudely. Young was every bit as rusty as someone who’s played sparingly the last calendar year.

Rex Ryan fined for cursing The cost of dropping an F-bomb is apparently about $100,000. ESPN reported yesterday that Rex Ryan’s “shut the f— up” response to a fan at halftime of last Sunday’s Patriots game will cost the Jets coach at least $75,000 and as much as $100,000. He won’t be suspended. Ryan was fined

Princely debut — Rookie firstround pick Prince Amukamara was one of the numerous Big Blue defenders to have Young’s number, as he registered his first career interception. Amukamara, who had missed all of the season prior to last night with a broken foot, made a quick impact when he snatched Young’s underthrown ball at the 8:52 mark of the opening quarter.

2

$50,000 for flipping off a fan at an MMA event before the 2010 Super Bowl in Miami. Ryan was leaving the field after his halftime interview with NBC’s Michelle Tafoya when a fan shouted that Patriots coach Bill Belichick was better, prompting the offending comment from Ryan. It was caught on video and posted online. Ryan apologized for the incident last Monday at his daily press conference. METRO

Salsa time — Victor Cruz hasn’t passed Hakeem Nicks as the best wideout on the Giants just yet, but he might’ve taken the reins as the biggest downfield threat during his ascension. Cruz led Giants receivers with six catches for 128 yards, including a 47yard reception to get the Giants within scoring range with 1:25 remaining ... before Eli Manning’s game-ending fumble.

Capuano rips his team Islanders head coach tears into own squad after lack of effort in an embarrassing loss to Boston Nabokov goes on IR with groin problem GETTY IMAGES

No one is happy when a team isn’t winning. Least of all the coach. The Islanders are 2-9-2 since Oct. 20 and head coach Jack Capuano let his team hear just how unhappy he was with the team’s effort after a 6-0 loss to Boston this Saturday. “My thoughts are when you play this game you need to play with fire, you need to play with passion, you need to play with deter-

And that just didn't happen tonight. And I don’t have the answers why.� They’ll start looking for the answers tonight in Pittsburgh. METRO

Pittsburgh center Sidney Crosby is expected to finally return from a concussion — and postconcussion syndrome — tonight against the Islanders. Crosby hasn’t played since last Jan. 5 when he was hit in the head in a game against Tampa Bay by Victor Hedman. He’s been dealing with the repercussions ever since.

In the 10 months since he’s played some had even speculated about whether he would be able to return to hockey at all. Crosby denied that this preseason and has been working out with team for the last couple months, first with no contact and fully starting Oct. 13. Crosby was leading the NHL in both goals and points at the time of his injury last season. It is unknown how much he’ll play against the Islanders. METRO
