Department of Health so excited about Bloomberg’s soda ban that they suggest other unhealthy foods and drinks New Yorkers could lose Watch out milkshakes, fries and hamburgers: You may be on the chopping block CIARAN GRIFFIN/THINKSTOCK

Why stop with just a supersized soda ban? That’s what some members of the Board of Health suggested yesterday at their meeting, where Mayor Michael Bloomberg's proposal to ban sugary drinks larger than 16 ounces was officially introduced. Bloomie’s idea may outrage many New Yorkers, but some board members were so enthused by it that they even started wondering what foods could be slashed next. “We’re really looking at restricting portion size, so the argument could be … What about the size of a hamburger or jumbo fries?” asked board member Dr. Michael Phillips. Other board members asked why the Health Department decided to focus on just sugary drinks and the 16-ounce size. Board member Dr. Joel For-

Support for the ban Many board members seemed to support the ban, lauding the city’s efforts so far. However, some raised questions about the implementation. Dr. Michael Phillips questioned why 7-Eleven, which sells Big Gulps, should be excluded but restaurants would not. “Is that fair?” he asked. METRO/AB

One member of the Board of Health suggested milkshakes should fall under the mayor’s proposed drink ban.

man suggested milkshakes, exempt from Bloomberg's ban, should not be given a pass. “There are certainly milkshakes and milk coffee beverages that have monstrous

amounts of calories in them, and I’m not so sure what the rationale is not to include those,” Forman said. When board member Dr. Bruce Vladeck found out that

Obesity an ‘epidemic’

2.3M

City officials said 40 percent of public school children and 58 percent of adults are obese. This accounts for 5,800 deaths each year and $4 billion in medical costs directly related to obesity, according to the Department of Health. “Obesity is an epidemic among New Yorkers,” the Department of Health’s Susan Kansagra said.

The ﬁne for violating the ban would be $200, although it would not aﬀect letter grading, the Health Department said.

If New Yorkers reduced the size from 20 to 16 ounces for one drink every two weeks, the city would save about 2.3 million pounds in one year.

soda in movie theaters would be affected, he suggested that its partner in crime, popcorn, should suffer the same fate. “I was thinking about the typical movie theater with a 32ounce drink and 32 ounces of popcorn,” Vladeck said. “The popcorn isn’t a whole lot better from a nutritional point of view than the soda.” Board members unanimously voted to allow the proposed ban to proceed to a public hearing on July 24. Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas Farley emphasized that the city is only considering restricting sugary drinks. Near the end of the meeting, board member Pamela Brier lauded the plan and suggested it may only be the beginning. “This does not solve all problems, and there’s plenty more issues to take up,” she said.

The Health Department has decided to take on beverages because their portion size “has exploded” in recent years, Kansagra said. Americans on average take in about 300 more calories daily than 30 years ago, according to the Health Department. When someone eats a larger portion, they eat 20 to 50 percent more. “You do it without realizing it,” she said. ALISON BOWEN

Brooklyn indeed is getting whiter WRITE TO US: LETTERS@METRO.US

White people are moving to Brooklyn faster than any other area in the country, a new study based on U.S. Census data information found. Michael Petrilli, who runs the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, an educational think tank, set out to find which neighborhoods in the nation were gentrifying at the highest rate. According to the study published online, Petrilli said he wanted to see where there was the greatest influx of people with higher incomes moving into a traditionally lowerincome area. However, income data was not yet available for the year 2010 from the U.S. Census Bureau, so instead Petrilli meas-

Not exactly scientific NEW YORK. Petrilli acknowledged that his wasn’t a scientific study, and that looking at race alone is not an accurate way to determine gentrification.

ured it by the share of white people in the populations of different ZIP codes. What he found was that four of the country’s 25 ZIP codes with the highest increase in white share of the population from 2000 to 2010 are in Brooklyn. White people are moving to those areas at a faster rate than anywhere else in the U.S, he determined. The four Brooklyn ZIP codes that saw the highest influxes of white people, in order are: 11205 (Ft. Greene), 11205 (East Williamsburg), 11238 (Prospect Heights) and 11237 (Bed-Stuy).

“I looked at ZIP codes (which isn’t perfect, because boundaries can change) and places with a large increase in the white share of the population (which isn’t perfect, because you’d really want to look at changes in income levels, but those data aren’t available yet for 2010),” he wrote. METRO/CG

Fun zips in, and out, of Union Square Park JEREMY SPARIG/METRO

Individuals enjoy a ride on a zip line, set up yesterday in the north sector of Union Square.

The New York City Department of Transportation unveiled a 160-foot zip line at Union Square Park yesterday morning, a preview of what’s to come at their annual Summer Streets events this August. “I rode it this morning,” chirped DOT Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan, nodding towards the zip line that stretched along the 17th Street side of the park yesterday. “Look, you don’t need a cup of coffee, just ride the zip line!” The zip line was only up from 7 a.m. to noon yesterday, before it was taken down. But it was open to the public for part of that time and dozens

of New Yorkers got to try it for free. They were strapped into a harness and off they went. Fahim Saleh heard about the zip line from his friend on Facebook and brought along two co-workers during their lunch break. “I thought it was going to be building to building,” Saleh laughed. “I totally thought I’d be swinging into somebody’s office.” Unlike other zip lines, this one descended from a tower and ran down to the ground. Riders had to walk up a steep set of stairs to the top of a platform where an operator from Fantasy World Entertainment would attach their harness to the line.

After instructing them how to position their body on the way down, the operator would let the person go and they would slide down to another operator waiting to catch them on the ground. “I only wish it lasted longer,” said Saleh’s co-worker, Matt Spencer. “But we’re going to go back to work and show the video to everyone!” The 40-person-long line to zip down across Union Square never shortened, despite some rain. Even once the operators shut it down at noon people anxious to try it out had to be turned away. DANIELA BERNAL

Farmvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Zynga withers on Wall St. Nasdaq halted short-sales of Zynga Inc. yesterday as shares of the social gaming company plummeted 11.8 percent on increased concerns that the craze for games on Facebook has already passed its peak.

Zynga plunged below $5 a share for the first time yesterday, reaching a low of $4.78. Nasdaq issued an alert shortly before 10 a.m. alerting traders that the stock had tripped a â&#x20AC;&#x153;circuit breakerâ&#x20AC;? prohibiting short sales. The ban will be in effect through today.

A former Penn State assistant football coach testified in the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse trial yesterday that he saw Sandusky naked in a campus locker room shower sexually molesting a young boy. “There was no way that his genitals were not right up against that young boy’s rear end,” Mike McQueary, one of the most anticipated witnesses in the trial of Penn State’s former football defensive coordinator, told the Pennsylvania jury of the 2001 incident. Earlier in the second day of testimony in the closely watched trial, a sobbing 18-yearold witness called by the prosecution told jurors that Sandusky had befriended him as a boy, took him to his house and began to sexually abuse him. The witness said he met Sandusky when he was about 10 or 11 years old through the Second Mile charity that Sandusky founded. He described

have described being sexually abused by Sandusky as boys, and six more alleged victims are due to testify. McQueary became the first bystander to tell jurors he saw Sandusky molesting a boy. McQueary, then a graduate assistant football coach, testified that he had gone to the Lasch Football Building on the Pennsylvania State University campus to drop off some shoes and do some work late on a Friday in February 2001. When he entered, he said, he heard “smacking sounds, very much skin-on-skin smacking sounds,” said McQueary. He said he could see, through the reflection in a mirror, the shower room. He told jurors he saw a naked young boy bracing himself against the shower wall. Sandusky, also naked, was behind him, holding the boy around the waist and moving against him, McQueary testified.

WASHINGTON. Federal prosecu-

tors in the perjury trial of former pitching ace Roger Clemens urged jurors yesterday to use common sense and not to fall for the “entangled web of lies” he weaved to protect his reputation. Clemens, 49, is on trial for the second time on federal charges of lying in 2008 to the House of Representatives’ Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, which was investigating drug use in Major League Baseball.

DEFENDING CHAMPIONS

Missiles on rooftops, drought plans, fighter jets: London is prepared for the Olympics No other Games have ever had more extensive security plans

MARTIN CARNEY/ROYAL NAVY

Q&A analysis

Shiites, riots and al Qaeda We spoke with Leo Gleser, CEO of Israeli security ﬁrm ISDS, which worked on the 2004 Athens Olympics.

Quoted

“The Olympics are like a bubble that has to be completely secure, because it’s the world’s ultimate advertising tool.”

What are the most important elements of Olympic security today?

The threat to London’s 2012 Olympic Games are primarily groups that have the capacity to launch cyber-terror attacks. Among those behind these attacks are al Qaeda, Shiite organizations with backing from Iran, Muslims in London that join forces with outside groups, as well

8,000 Londoners will be London ambassadors, assisting tourists in ﬁnding their way giving them tips about the

The Iron Lady keeping tourists away: HMS Ocean will be on duty during the London Olympics.

HMS Ocean, the British Royal Navy’s largest battle ship, is a majestic sight. But during the Olympic Games, she won’t be stationed in the Thames just to entertain tourists. She’s there to fight off terrorists. “For terrorist groups like al Qaeda, London is a target in a way Beijing is not,” notes Margaret Gilmore, a counterterrorism expert at the Royal United Services Institute, a London think tank. “The authorities have sent the message that they’re leaving no stone un-

turned and would even be willing to shoot down a plane.” The London Olympics feature the most extensive security arrangements any Olympic Games have ever seen. There are surface-to-air missiles in parks and on rooftops. Fighter jets on standby. Biological radiation detection systems. Security guards and 12,500 police officers will be patrolling the city, while 13,500 military personnel will detect bombs, patrol airspace and guard the Thames. “We’ll have security guards

in 90 locations, working on everything from crowd control to car searches,” says G4S Director Mark Hamilton. “We’ve spent the past 17 months developing our capability for the Games, and right now we’re training some 30,000 staff.” G4S is the London Games’ private security provider. “Olympic organizers imagine the worst-case scenario, including nuclear attacks,” explains Stephen Graham, a professor at Newcastle University and author of the new book

“Cities Under Siege.” In addition to terrorists, the London organizers have to worry about domestic troublemakers. “In the United Kingdom of clockwork control and domestication, we’re some of the ‘unpatriotic ones’ who find the 2012 Olympics — with the ensuing spectacle of wealth, harmful developments and escalating police state — frankly offensive,” wrote Britain’s Informal Anarchist Federation in a statement, vowing sabotage. Olympics have always in-

volved security precautions, but the big upgrade took place after 9/11. The 2004 Athens Games’ security arrangements cost 10 times as much as security for the Sydney Games in 2000. London’s security arrangements will cost the taxpayers $867 million, or $92,500 per athlete. “This has gotten out of control,” says Graham. “Fear has been exploited by security companies eager to sell their services. We’re spending money that we don’t have on this even as

as local British citizens who might have been involved in London’s 2011 riots. What are the security arrangements that most visitors don’t notice?

The largest part of physical security arrangements is visible and functions as a deterrent. But other aspects of security aren’t visible. Visitors don’t notice intelligencegathering, coordination of visas and permits or activities abroad. Intelligence agencies are involved, which is something you don’t see as a Gleser visitor. MWN/EB

we’re shutting youth clubs for lack of money.” Indeed, community organizers are up in arms against the rooftop missiles. But Boris Johnson, London’s mayor, has an upbeat countermeasure: Inspired by Queen Elizabeth’s successful Jubilee, Johnson has announced that London will put up 638 square meters of building decorations.

Our Aim is to Beat Most Offers! We Strive to Beat All Legitimate Written Offers Before Bringing your items to us, take them to other dealers. Have them give you legitimate offers in writing. Then bring your jewelry and written offers to one of our locations. Although no one can guarantee with certainty they are paying the highest price for an article at any particular time, we will strive to beat most legitimate written offers.

A Note Regarding the Up To Prices listed in this Ad The condition and rarity of an item determines its price. If an item is in excellent condition and very rare it might be worth the up to price, or even more. However, if

an item is in poor condition, the value will be lower. For example, a 1927 S Quarter could be worth $7,000 in new condition or less than $20 in poor condition. The up to price reflects items of exceptional quality and rarity. Although it is unlikely you will have these items due to their extreme rarity, feel free to bring whatever items you may have and we will evaluate them free of charge.

Customer Satisfaction Most of our business comes from satisfied customers and referrals which includes their friends and families. Our staff is courteous and professional and we strive as a company to make your selling experience a pleasant one.

THE WORD

Metro’s Monica Weymouth shares her take on the world of gossip

@monicaatmetro

Adrian Grenier is in the dog house

ALL PHOTOS GETTY IMAGES

The feed ... Checking in with some of Hollywood’s biggest names to see what they’ve been up to — in their own words, in 140 characters or fewer. Today, Carrie Fisher needs a direction (any direction), Alec Baldwin has plans for himself, Rosie O’Donnell has a question and Conan O’Brien is wishful dieting. @CarrieFFisher: The only exercise I get is running aground. I’m so lost, I think everything I think is profound. Our lows are so low that our upsides are down. @alecbaldwin: I need to have work done. Implants, tucks, sucks, resections. Lotta work. @Rosie: I was 20 months old when JFK was killed - I remember watching the funeral on tv - is that even possible? @ConanOBrien: How many baby carrots offset five adult cupcakes?

Less than 24 hours before he was scheduled to host Monday night’s Bideawee Gala in New York City, former “Entourage” star Adrian Grenier canceled on the animal welfare charity. (While he declined to give an explanation to donors who paid up to $1,000 per ticket, suffice it to say we sincerely doubt it was a work commitment.) Fortunately, Howard Stern’s wife, Beth, stepped in — and naturally, Stern had something to say about it during his Tuesday morning broadcast. “A lot of celebrities agree to do something for a charity, and at the last minute they cancel, leaving the charity stranded,” Stern said. “I do lose respect for people when they do this. They always have a great excuse. I don’t know. Send out a tweet and say ‘I’m so sorry.’” Oh Adrian, we’re dying to know: How does it feel to be out-classed by Howard Stern?

We’ve found our R-Patz in For the most part, Robert Pattinson seems to be a good sport about his “Twilight” mega-fame. But he’s not, apparently, a fan of the nickname the media has settled on, “R-Patz.” “When I got [the role in ‘Cosmopolis’], every single article that came out was, ‘RPatz’s struggle for credibility,’” the actor tells the Guardian. “I don’t understand who invented that thing, ‘R-Patz.’ I want to strangle them.” In that case, we’re totally taking credit for it.

have the space here — just ask your grandmother what she doesn’t like about 50 Cent.) So when the two sat down for a chat Sunday night on “Oprah’s Next Chapter,” there was plenty to catch up on. Oprah, for one, was curious as to why the rapper named his female dog after her. “At the time, I was just looking at the

situation, and I saw I was developing negative feelings for someone who doesn’t even know me, and I gave it to the dog,” explained 50 of his now beloved miniature schnauzer. You know, there’s something very zen about this. Next week, we’ll be introducing the Metro therapy goldfish, Kim and Kanye.

We read a lot of celebrity Twitter feeds around here. And while there’s the occasional winner — adopt us, Joan Rivers! — most are pecked out by soulless publicists between Diet Cokes and air kisses. That said, John Stamos’ is a gem, full of flirty gossip, starry-eyed Beach Boys worship and tipsy Instagram gold — think swashbuckling Uncle Jesse.

THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN

Ellen Page stars in Sony's new game, “Beyond.”

Microsoft

Sony

Microsoft seemed hellbent on proving that the Xbox 360 is now as ubiquitous to the living room as a futon. They talked up new apps like Internet Explorer and Xbox Music. They talked up their new smartphone integration system, SmartGlass. They didn’t talk up games too much, though. We still managed to get pretty excited for “Halo 4” and another “Gears of War” sequel. We are easily excitable. Verdict: SmartGlass has potential but we are not sure if developers will actually work to realize it.

Just like Microsoft, Sony stayed mum on their eventual next gen system. The company did lay out some fantastic PS3 titles, though. Coming down the pike? An apocalyptic adventure called “Last of Us” by the makers of the Uncharted series, the beautifully cinematic “Beyond” which stars Ellen Page and a “God of War” prequel. Verdict: Major exclusives coming for PS3, but Vita ended up short shrift.

The E3 Electronic Entertainment Expo shows us what’s in store for gamers in the coming year Sidescroller LAWRENCE BONK LAWRENCE.BONK@METRO.US

nce a year, the entire video game industry piles into a VW bus and heads to sunny Los Angeles for the E3 Electronic Entertainment Expo. It is here, at this magical conference center, that CEO and booth babe

alike gather to discuss the future of gaming. Here is Metro’s rundown of what the big console manufacturers hope you’ll one day be spending your money on. Metro does not endorse the opinions of the author, or any opinions expressed on its pages.

It’s good old reliable Mario in “New Super Mario Bros. U.”

Nintendo Mario’s extended family spent the bulk of the show talking up their next gen system, the Wii U. It’s launching in time for the holidays and purportedly has more horsepower than both the 360 and the PS3. The hook, just like the Wii, is in the controller. The Wii U Gamepad is essentially an iPad, complete with motion control, touchscreen support, NFC capabili-

ties and many more bells and whistles. The system also works with all of those Wii remotes you’ve had laying around since

Christmas 2006. Launch titles include a new Mario sidescroller, “Pikmin 3,” a horror game called “Zombi U” and “Assassin’s Creed III.” Verdict: Interesting tech but weak launch lineup.

LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON Family dynamics haven’t changed in the 21 years since ‘Dallas’ went off the air The most backstabbing clan of oil magnates on TV has a new generation out for money, power and … alternative energy? Meet the men JR Ewing

Bobby Ewing

Played by Larry Hagman

Played by Patrick Duﬀy

The eldest son in a family of oil tycoons and ranchers, JR was the most ruthless (and possibly drunkest, and most womanizing) — to the point where his sister-in-law famously shot him. “How many people do you know working at 80? And doing a job that they love with the people he loves?” Hagman says when asked why he signed on to a “Dallas” reboot. “Oh, yeah, I’m a very lucky man.”

The youngest Ewing, a romantic married to a rival family’s daughter, was torn between the family’s oil interests and tending to the homestead of Southfork ranch. His “favorite son” status ignited the ire of JR, leading to the brothers’ feud. “What Cynthia [Cidre, head writer and co-executive producer] did in the script that we have now is she brought the [original] cast and the new cast, which are grown-up versions of the old cast, back to that start-

Quoted

Played by Josh Henderson The son of JR and Sue Ellen Ewing, John Ross, like his dad, is determined to prove his worth as an oilman — even if it means destroying Southfork in the process. “The first scene that I had with Larry,” Henderson recalls, “he just looked at me, and literally, I don’t want to say … I almost peed my pants. I mean, the history, it electrified the

ing point of purity that made ‘Dallas’ what it was,” Duffy says. Of course, “Dallas” at its core was never very pure by most standards. Expect acts of hubris, nefarious power plays and a sex scene — all in the first episode.

room. It’s amazing to see [the original cast] and their characters come back to life. And to be a part of it, it’s very special.”

“It was like snapping your ﬁngers, and we were Bobby and Sue Ellen and JR again with no interspersing time whatsoever in between.” PATRICK DUFFY, ON THE ORIGINAL CAST RETURNING TO THEIR ICONIC ROLES ON “DALLAS”

ZADE ROSENTHAL

Christopher Ewing Played by Jesse Metcalfe The adopted son of Bobby and his first wife, Pam, Christopher is keenly aware that he is not a “real” Ewing, as John Ross likes to remind him. Christopher wants to restore the Ewing name by investing in alternative fuel technologies. “It’s like [the younger] characters are defined by who [the original characters] are and what they’ve already done in those last 14 seasons,” Metcalfe says. “We’re just kind of jumping off from that. Every bit of who Christopher is is part of Bobby, you know, and the same with [John Ross] and JR.”

Running after Scott Jurek Scott Jurek’s new memoir chronicles his path from skinny kid to ultrarunning champion We chatted with him about discomfort vs. pain, ‘running errands’ and dodging mountain lions What he listens to

BEN MOON

n a sport populated by egotists and eccentrics, ultrarunner Scott Jurek seems to be the exception. He’s a nice guy, a valedictorian and a vegan. At times, in his new memoir, “Eat & Run,” he seems bashful about calling himself a champion — though the title was excruciatingly hardearned. But while eccentrics run for pleasure, the 38-yearold Jurek, who once ran 165 miles in 24 hours, runs for pain. “I wanted to use it as a tool to pry myself open,” he writes. He spoke to us from his home in Colorado.

PREMIER HAIR BOUTIQUE

You write about overcoming severe pain and injuries while running 100-mile races. When do you know that you have to stop?

I like to say that there’s a difference between discomfort and pain. Discomfort is when your legs feel like they’ve been beat-

en with a baseball bat. It’s that deep ache, a kind of numbing pain. Whereas the pain from an injury is that sharp kind of pain when every single step is a jolt. [Discomfort is] temporary — I guess that’s the key differentiator. Most of the effects of discomfort are not going to be long-term. So it’s learning that the human body has limits, but those limits sometimes are a lot higher or a lot farther than we think. How can urbanites ﬁt more running into their lifestyles?

Ultramarathoning can become an important way just to transport people. In other cultures, that’s how they get around. Exercise was part of a lifestyle, a way of life, and now we’re so far removed from that. I’m a big fan of what I call “errand running” — commuting via running with a backpack. It’s a way that people can fit the benefits of running into their busy

lifestyles. And it can actually be faster. [Laughs] Especially in the city. Just make sure that you don’t forget your wallet.

We call those “bonus miles.” What do you listen to when you run?

Jurek

“It’s learning that the human body has limits, but those limits sometimes are a lot higher or a lot farther than we think.” JUREK, ON POWERING THROUGH

Well, it’s funny. I never used to listen to music, and I always felt that I needed to listen to my body and be aware of animals around me in remote places where there were mountain lions. But music does have its place, and music is a good discomfort mediator. Or, from another standpoint, it’s a good boredom mediator. In the end, it’s whatever gets people out the door, moving their bodies and enjoying that experience. ... I’ve used everything from Krishna Das to Rage Against the Machine.

Cut your cancer risk at the grill this summer The heat from your grill may give you a juicy burger with a side of health troubles How to cook safely LIFESIZE

The American Institute for Cancer Research has issued warnings about grilling meat, fish and poultry — including the beloved barbecue burger. “There is enough experimental evidence to suggest that grilling certain foods increases cancer risk,” says AICR dietitian Alice Bender, M.S., R.D. “Muscle meats are the problem; substances are formed when these are grilled with intense heat. Cooking meats on any high temperature has the same effect, [but] grilling is traditionally done on high heat all the way and is therefore riskier.” Intense heat causes a reaction in the protein and two carcinogens — possibly DNA-altering, cancer-causing substances — form: heterocyclic amines and polycyclic

to tell us that avoiding it is prudent. You can still have a backyard barbecue this summer. People are not going to give up their beloved burgers and steaks — just lessen the risks.” Bender offers the following tips for safer grilling.

RE: “LIBERALS WANT US ALL IN THE SWEATSHOPS”: Ritchie

RE: “EVERYONE’S INVITED TO THE PARTY”: The unfortunate truth

Tiemann couldn’t be more clueless. He says Democrats want to force people to do things they wouldn’t ordinarily do. That’s the GOP in a nutshell. With no unions, do you think wages will go up out of the goodness of corporations hearts? Do you think the hours a person will have to work to pay off his bills and take care of his family will decrease? Health benefits? Go to the emergency room. Paid vacations? Be happy you still have a job. The banks have robbed our country and continue to do so with no executives being imprisoned — and Republicans blame hardworking union workers. Republicans should wear

of the discussion over Republican Party loyalty is that both writers have their “facts straight.” Mr. Khoury recites the platform perfectly, while Mr. Connell’s description demonstrates how those policies have spelled disaster for America. This smoke screen has attracted many believers who claim we can solve our debt crisis simply by cutting taxes, even while fighting endless wars funded with borrowed money. The real tragedy is that there is no

end to this debate. America will simply continue spiraling own the sinkhole of debt, eventually forcing whichever party is in power to end Social Security once the resources collapse. By that time, it will likely be too late. We may have already been forced into subservience to our creditors.

Stating that the Republican party does not want to “end the social safety net” but rather they want to change the entitlement programs to make them sustainable and reduce government waste and fraud in the social safety net is a crock.

Diehl was at minicamp yesterday, two days after his DWI.

Diehl says his apology Giants offensive lineman David Diehl, who was arrested for DWI on Sunday night, took the time to apologize to his team and the fans yesterday. “I’ve worked hard during my career to set a positive example, and [Sunday] I fell far short of this standard. I apologize to my family, my fans, the New York Giants and the NFL. I made a poor decision that I

sincerely regret, and, as always, take full responsibility for my actions.” The 10-year veteran showed contrition and guilt at allowing such a “distraction into the locker room.” “David is very remorseful. He is a very proud young man, as you know,” head coach Tom Coughlin said. “He is very sorry for what happened. He has

been an exemplary citizen for this organization.” Diehl won’t be in Albany, N.Y., for the start of training camp because the July 26 start date is the same day as his court appearance. “We can all learn from what he’s going through and just a reminder, you can’t flirt with drinking and driving,” Eli Manning said.

Giants in a ‘tight’ spot

AL BELLO/GETTY IMAGES

New York in same position as last offseason — searching for a tight end Pascoe only healthy player, Manning not worried Ballard gone The Giants began their final round of minicamps, before the official commencement of August’s training camp, in search of tight end. Fresh off the Monday release of injured tight end Jake Ballard (torn anterior cruciate ligament), the Giants are committed to finding another able body to pick up the slack. Newcomer Martellus Bennett is still nursing a sore hamstring, rookie Adrien

Patriots pick up Ballard Tight end Jake Ballard, who the Giants waived because of a failed physical, was picked up by the Patriots yesterday afternoon, according to his agent Blake Baratz. Ballard tore his left ACL in Super Bowl XLVI and required microfracture surgery on the knee as well. He was expected to be re-signed and placed on injured reserve by New York had he cleared waivers. Instead he joins the team he beat that day. Ballard likely won’t play at all in the upcoming season as he continues to rehabilitate from the serious knee injury. METRO

Robinson is behind the proverbial eight ball having missed most of the spring due to stipulations in the new collective bargaining agreement, and holdover Travis Beckum is also recuperating from his own ACL tear in the Super Bowl. Bear Pascoe is the only healthy tight end in minicamp. One guy who isn’t worried by the cumbersome tight end situation is quarterback Eli Manning. This will be the second consecutive season in which Manning will enter the campaign with uncertainty at the position. Last summer it was the departure of Kevin Boss to Oakland, yet Ballard parlayed his newfound opportunity into career highs in receptions (38), yards (604), yards per catch (15.9) and touchdowns (four). “Bear knows what he’s doing, knows the scheme, and knows the offense. He’s played for us, so he’s doing well. And we have some young guys, new guys like Martellus who’s coming into the system, so they’re trying to get caught up,” said Manning. “They’re all learning from Bear, so you at least have a guy who’s been here a little bit and knows what’s going on.” Head coach Tom Coughlin marveled at the physical specimens at the tight end position. “We do have some athletes there and some guys we hope

Rugby star still trying to make his mark on Jets GETTY IMAGES

There isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a bigger project in the NFL than trying to convert an athlete who has never played football at any level, but former rugby player Hayden Smith is making progress in his bid to become an NFL tight end. Smith is an intriguing

prospect because he moves faster and with more agility than most 6-foot-6, 255-pound football players. He has good hips and is a hard worker, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still that pesky fact that he has never played organized football at any level. The Jets signed him earlier

to do it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a night and day difference from when I first walked in here, but I still need to take it along and further the process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All that background noise is diminishing. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m understanding things more,â&#x20AC;? Smith said. METRO/KD

Tim Tebow, who took all his snaps with the second-team oďŹ&#x20AC;ense yesterday, could be a critical piece in pushing the tempo.

Jets plan to push pace Sparano installing faster offense to keel defenses on their heels Team admits they got lazy at times last season No more plodding to the line The slow walk from the huddle to the line of scrimmage will be more of a jog this year if offensive coordinator Tony Sparano has his way. Sparano, in his first year with the Jets after being fired as head coach of the Dolphins, wants to see his offense pushing a faster tempo than the plodding unit of last season. At the start of minicamp yesterday, it was clear that the entire offense was moving faster than last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something that Sparano brought in here. He wanted us to play fast; even our walk-throughs are faster. He said that if we practice this speed, we will bring it faster

on Sunday. We want to act like we know what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing. He wants us to break the huddle with the assertiveness. Let the defensive side know that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re coming back,â&#x20AC;? fullback

Moore makes preschool trip It was a busy day for Jets guard Brandon Moore, who missed the on-the-field session of minicamp as he attended his daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s graduation from preschool. Moore said attending the morning session with his teammates nearly caused

John Conner told Metro New York. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t concentrate on it last year as much; maybe guys get tired. He wants us to be consistent in breaking the huddle.â&#x20AC;? some worry for his daughter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She woke up this morning when I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there and was like â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Whereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daddy?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; She was wondering if I was going to make it,â&#x20AC;? Moore said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I came here for a meeting and then left after that.â&#x20AC;? Moore returned to the facility for film study and workouts. METRO/KD

Veteran right guard Brandon Moore said it is part of Sparano stamping his aggressive style on the unit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we just want to dictate the tempo. When you give the defense the chance to sit back and relax and see what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; well, it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ideal,â&#x20AC;? Moore said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not going to blame anybody for anything, but maybe we kind of put our head down a little bit at times last year,â&#x20AC;? Conner said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pretty sure guys wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be walking from the huddle this year.â&#x20AC;? KRISTIAN DYER sports@metro.us

It’s all in the details: Sabrina Soto teaches us the little things that make or break home decor

ven if your design aesthetic currently means your college futon coexists with your great aunt’s coffee table, there are ways to pull a room together stylishly. Just ask HGTV star Sabrina Soto, whose new book, “Home Design,” gives the lowdown on layering to get a room’s flavor just right. Here, she walks through the finishing touches that give any space extra pizzazz.

Steal this trick To work around a clunky radiator: “Put a floating shelf on top of it and use it as a table. You could get a floating shelf at Ikea or Target for nothing. And I usually like to have it blend in with the wall, so I’ll paint it the exact same color, but you just want to make sure to use high-heat paint.”

Soto encourages mixing prints to create a look that’s all your own.

The right accent pieces “I think accessorizing can take a room from being OK to absolutely fabulous,” Soto says. “It’s about making the right decisions when accessorizing. You want pops of color, you want different textures, you want in-

teresting pieces that tell your story, but you don’t want to overdo it.” Her two rules for polishing a room like a pro? “I always like to accessorize in odd numbers, and I never like to use things smaller than a

grapefruit. I think too many little knickknacks become clutter.”

The right lighting Soto says it’s the most important aspect of design — and sor-

ry: Overhead bulbs aren’t gonna cut it. She suggests “two, maybe even three, artificial forms of light per room,” even in small rooms. “Lighting really does make or break a room, whether it’s a sconce, chande-

lier, recess lighting, even table lamps. You want to have enough light in a room to balance a space.” MEREDITH ENGEL

The right fabrics This covers everything from your window treatments to your couch’s upholstery to the pillows on top of it. Find a balance, Soto suggests, and feel free to ditch the matchymatchy look. “It’s about mixing up prints but making sure that at the end of the day they still tell a nice story,” she says. And yes, you can mix prints! “There’s no specific rules, but you just want to make sure that the colors play well with each other. If you have two prints next to each other, you still want them to have the same shades of colors. It’s like clothes.”
