9/11 vics want the feds

9/11 MUSEUM

Those who lost loved ones in 9/11 are demanding complete federal overhaul of Sept. 11 museum Don’t want another dollar allotted to delayed building Families of 9/11 victims are fed up — and they’re calling in the feds. Jim Riches, chair of the 9/11 Parents and Families of Firefighters, pleaded yesterday for the U.S. National Park Service to completely take over control of the beleaguered National September

Museum delays The memorial opened last year, on the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, and the goal had been for the museum to open this September, for the 11th anniversary. However, funding disputes led to stalled construction last year, after subcontractors said they were not getting paid. The Port Authority and the Sept. 11 memorial both accused the other of owing money. The Daily News reported costs to be $1.3 billion, up from a once-estimated $680 million. However, museum spokesman Michael Frazier said the budget is now at about $700 million. Mayor Michael Bloomberg contends that the project is not hugely over budget, according to the Daily News. “The agreements that we’ve had over the years have been basically kept to,” he said.

11 Memorial and Museum. Some 9/11 family members, like Riches, are exasperated with the museum after years of delays. Although the 9/11 memorial site opened last fall, construction of the museum has been hampered by ongoing financial disputes between museum officials and the Port Authority, which controls the World Trade Center site. The museum originally promised to open its doors this September, but now its opening date is an open question. Meanwhile, some estimates report its costs have ballooned past $1 billion. “They’re just not getting the job done,” Riches told Metro of the museum. Riches, an FDNY fire chief whose firefighter son died in the attacks, said that after the soaring costs and delays, he wants control handed over to more capable hands: the National Park Service. “Let them run it. They have the expertise,” he said. The National Park Service oversees a range of parks, including the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania, Pearl Harbor and the Gettysburg National Military Park. Last weekend, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie sent a letter to Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, asking the National Park

Service for funding and to take a “greater role.” Spokespeople for both the Port Authority and the 9/11 museum said they supported the governors’ request. Riches’ letter, which was distributed to 9/11 families, suggested that those in charge of the museum should now be transitioned into a fundraising role only. Bloomberg has pushed for federal legislation that would allot up to $20 million in annual funding to the memorial. “We’d love to get 20 million

‘NYPD Blue’ writer charged with killing dog QUEENS. A former TV screenwriter for the hit police show “NYPD Blue” could face up to a year in prison if convicted of punching his tiny poodle so hard that the animal died. Ted Shuttleworth, 51, was arrested at his home in Queens on Saturday after employees at a veterinary hospital grew suspicious over the death of the 4.5-pound dog,

Lola, according to the New York Post. The animal hospital alerted the ASCPA after Shuttleworth brought in the 5-year-old dog's remains.

bucks a year,” the mayor said yesterday, according to WNYC. “We have to have a ... museum that will tell the story.” But Riches told Metro that not one more dollar should be funneled to the museum if current organizers are still in charge, even if that means further delays. “It’s been a money pit for 10 years," he said. “We don’t want to pour more taxpayer money down the drain.” ALISON BOWEN

The 9/11 museum is a nonprofit. Bloomberg appointed the president, Joseph Daniels, in 2006. Daniels’ six-figure salary, quoted to be $371,307, according to the New York Post last year, also irks Riches as another frivolous expense, he said. METRO/AB

Tierra McKeithan points to a swastika that was spray-painted on the side of her family's van. The van was parked near a Jewish religious center, she said.

The quiet, leafy Brooklyn neighborhood of Borough Park has again been hit with hateful graffiti, as a second set of swastikas were discovered spray-painted there on Sunday night. This is the second incident of anti-Semitic graffiti in that neighborhood in the past week. One of the swastikas was found spray-painted on a van parked on East Second Street in front of a shul, or Jewish house of worship. Metro spoke with Borough Park resident Tierra McKeithan, who owns the defaced van. McKeithan said she was concerned her neighbors would think she was the one who scrawled the graffiti. “I am afraid my neighbors may think bad of us. We are the only black family on East Third Street, and the police knocked on my door thinking we did it,” she said yesterday. She said she and her family have been living in the Borough Park neighborhood for 10 years. The other swastika could be seen on a sign on East Second Street between Ditmas Avenue and Avenue F. Six other locations in the

same Brooklyn neighborhood were also hit with spray-painted swastikas on Friday. One of the buildings was a synagogue. No arrests have been made in any of the incidents. “This is becoming a problem for the whole neighborhood, and it is wrong,” said Johnny P., a barber on Ditmas Avenue. “This is about justice, and it is not right.” The NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating the graffiti, but do not yet know if the incidents are related. “We are very upset that this happened,” Yaslod Hoffman, a student visiting from Montreal, told Metro yesterday. “This is a great neighborhood. We try to get along with everyone. This neighborhood is mixed — Jewish, Spanish, black and Muslim.” DANIELA BERNAL and KEVIN C. DOWNS

Mike Tyson, Spike Lee to punch up Broadway

The famed boxer will make his Broadway debut in an autobiographical one-man show: “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth” starting in July. The oneman show will be directed by the legendary Spike Lee, for whom this is also his Broadway debut. “This is what me and my wife wanted to do, this is what we decided to do after I gave up drugs and being a pig,” said Tyson yesterday, who added that he’s been hoping to further develop his acting career. “I’m born to do this stuff.” The show promises a rare look at the life of the youngest undisputed heavyweight champion in boxing history, leaving no topic off limits, from his

The show will run for a limited six-night engagement beginning Tuesday, July 31, through Sunday, Aug. 5, at the Longacre Theater. “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth” has already been performed in Las Vegas, where the boxer gave a handful of performances. According to Lee, the New York show will be only minorly tweaked from the Vegas show. DANIELA BERNAL

When New York Democrat Charles Rangel first ran for U.S. Congress in 1970, he was so friendly with Nelson Rockefeller that the Republican governor wished him happy birthday, handed him a map and a pencil, and told him to draw his own district. Rangel, 82, reminisced last week about how in his first campaigns he ran with Rockefeller’s blessing, piling up votes on both the Democratic and Republican lines. “Those days are over,” he said.

Adriano Espaillat, 57, a Democratic state senator, seized the opportunity and has challenged him in a June 26 primary, telling voters they could make history by electing the first Dominican-American to Congress. “Demographics are destiny for Charlie Rangel,” said William Cunningham, who has served as senior adviser to former New York Govs. Hugh Carey and Mario Cuomo, chief of staff to former U.S. Sen.

It almost guarantees a low turnout, making it difficult to measure how many residents will vote, said Jerry Skurnik, a political consultant and demographic analyst. “What is obvious is that Rangel’s in trouble,” Skurnik said. “If Espaillat manages to become a real cause, he’ll get Hispanics who never voted in a primary before, and then he wins.” BLOOMBERG

Accounts from the witnesses, now aged 18 to 28, of being victimized as young boys by a much older man, including oral sex and shared showers, at times brought them and jurors to tears.

Lawyers for Jerry Sandusky kicked off their side of the high-profile sex abuse trial with testimony from two former assistant football coaches who told jurors it was not unusual for grown men to shower with boys in the Penn State locker rooms. Richard Anderson, who served on the school’s coaching staff over two different periods for more than 20 years before retiring at the end of last season, told the jury yesterday he had witnessed Sandusky in the Pennsylvania State University showers with children, but never saw anything inappropriate. He testified that he, too, would shower with children. Sandusky, 68, the former defensive coordinator for Pennsylvania State University’s successful football program, faces more than 50

counts of abusing 10 boys over a 15-year period, allegations that focused U.S. national attention on the issue of child sexual abuse and rocked the college sports world. Judge John Cleland said yesterday the jury would be sequestered during deliberations, and he expected closing arguments in the fast-paced trial to take place on Thursday. Over several days of testimony, prosecutors sought to show Sandusky is a serial sexual predator who targeted boys through the Second Mile charity he founded in 1977 for underprivileged children. If convicted on all counts, Sandusky faces a sentence of more than 500 years in prison. The case prompted the firing last year of the university’s president, Graham Spanier, and head football coach Joe Paterno. REUTERS

I had a spectacular day in Montreal w/ the delicious @DavidBurtka. I’m liking this 39 stuff! @BetteMidler: Assassins! Something has murdered two of my chickens, Khloe and Kourtney!

Drake, Chris Brown fight far from over W

hat seemed to be a relatively minor bar fight between Chris Brown and Drake last week is still far from over. The Manhattan night club where the incident took place, W.i.P., has been closed down due to multiple code violations, according to the Associated Press. As for the fight itself, a source tells the Associated Press that the two hip-hop stars weren’t even involved in the bottle-throwing brawl, claiming it was “entourage versus entourage, never Drake versus Chris,” shooting down the theory that the two were fighting over Rihanna. Rapper Meek Mill — who was at the club with Drake, and was initially identified as an instigator — also says the stars weren’t involved. “Chris and Drake, them two was there, but it’s other people that be around that take s— to the next level,”

Gomez a no-go for ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ Selena Gomez’s popular “Fifty Shades of Grey” spoof made for humor site Funny or Die is about as close as the former Disney star is going to get to the racy, mega-popular material, according to MTV News. “I know I’m taking risks, but I don’t think I could do that,” Gomez says when asked about starring in the planned movie version of the book. “That would be a little too

Woody Allen has Lohan’s back Despite her ongoing troubles, Lindsay Lohan at least has a friend in Woody Allen, with whom she was spotted having a dinner meeting in New York last month. “I wouldn’t hesitate to use her in a movie, because she’s a very talented girl,” Allen tells Access Hollywood. “If there was some legal reason I couldn’t [cast her], that would be a different story, but it would not concern me personally, no. I think that she’d be just fine and she’d do a great job.”

Can’t nobody hold Lohan down Although she was treated for exhaustion and dehydration last week, Lindsay Lohan was back to partying on Saturday at the Chateau Marmont, according to Us Weekly. “For someone so exhausted, it was shocking to see her out past 1 a.m.,” a source says, adding that she stayed until the hotel’s restaurant cleared out for the night. Paramedics were called to the actress’ hotel room on Friday, but she’s maintaining a sense of humor about it. “Note to self…after working 85hours in 4days, and being up all night shooting, be very

Of course, seeing Middleton working so well with children begs the question of when she and William will start a family of their own, and royal sources say sooner rather than later. “There’s a window in place,” a source says, explaining that the couple is hoping to get pregnant between September and next summer. “The pregnancy will be announced. It won’t be hidden.”

When a summer house is not a home

or city dwellers, the summer home is a place of escape and renewal, a place to strengthen family bonds. But what happens when a family heads out to the country not to relax, but to mourn? Joshua Henkin’s second novel, “The World Without You,” follows the Frankels, a New York family gathered in the Berkshires during Fourth of July weekend to mark the death of beloved son Leo, a journalist killed in Iraq. It’s a somber occasion but, like most family reunions, not without fireworks. Henkin, who directs the MFA program in fiction writing at Brooklyn College, spoke to us from his home. When writing the book, did you consult anyone who had lost a loved one in a war?

I didn’t. The inspiration for the book, on some level, has nothing to do with the war

very startled because her first son had died 30 years earlier. I think the Frankels are the kind of people — upper middle-class, privileged people — who have strong opinions about the war, but [it] doesn’t really touch them in a day-today way the way it does people who have sons or daughters in the military. For the Frankels, the war was very abstract until it touched them personally in the most horrific way possible.

but with a family story of mine. I had a cousin who died of Hodgkin’s disease when he was in his late 20s. His death hung over the extended family for years. About 30 years later at a family reunion, my aunt, his mother, said, “I have two sons,” and everyone was

In the book, one sibling becomes an orthodox Jew and moves to Israel. Is the tension that this creates a reﬂection of real-life tension that can occur between reformed and orthodox family members?

I think that it is. I grew up in a complicated home: My father’s father was an orthodox rabbi, and my father, although he moved out of that world and went to Harvard law school, became a professor and lived

in the secular world, remained orthodox until the day he died. My mother is Jewish but grew up in a secular home ... so I’m certainly familiar both with the secular Jewish world and with the orthodox world. I just read in The New York Times the other day that the Jewish population in New York has gone up for the first time in many years because of the huge growth of the orthodox community on the Upper West Side. The Upper West Side that I grew up in was quite Jewish, but much more secular. ... I don’t see a whole lot of tension on the Upper West Side itself, but absolutely, in the world right now, you see tension between the orthodox, conservative and reform movements. You also see people cooperating. REBECCA FINKEL

Schoolchildren as young as 7 are engaging in self-harm Children as young as seven are purposely harming themselves, according to a report in the medical journal “Pediatrics.” It is the first formal investigation of self-harm in under-12s. Academics studied 665 schoolchildren in the Denver and New Jersey areas across three age groups: third, sixth and ninth grades. Overall, 8 percent of respondents admitted to self-harming, and the figure was only slightly lower — 7.5 percent — for the thirdgrade group, which included children aged 7. “A lot of people tend to think that school-aged children, they’re happy,” says lead researcher Benjamin Hankin,

an associate psychology professor at the University of Denver. “It’s unfortunately probably more common than we want to think.” Of self-harming thirdgraders, the figures were similar for boys and girls. The most common method was hitting themselves — which accounted for 60 percent, with just a few cases of cutting or burning. Across the age groups, girls were around 50 percent more likely to self-harm and of these 64 percent cut or carved their skin. That is five times higher than for boys, for whom the most common method was hitting themselves, which accounted for 55 percent.

Window warning Each year, almost 5,200 children are taken to the hospital for injuries from window-related falls, according to a recent study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, in Columbus, Ohio. Take these simple precautions to keep your child safe.

Girls were about 50 percent more likely to self-harm, according to the study.

“The results are not surprising because there is a growing trend of younger people selfharming,” child mental health specialist, psychologist and Middlesex University lecturer Dr. Fiona Starr told Metro. “We are also seeing with the rise of eating disorders that pressure on young people is affecting them, either from their peers

or popular culture.” Dr. Starr added that selfharming can be “extremely addictive” and that targeted campaigns in schools are needed to prevent the problem from worsening. KIERON MONKS METRO WORLD NEWS IN LONDON

Don’t rely on screens. Invest in window stops (which prevent a window from opening) and guards (which look like railings). They’re hard for children to unlock, says Parents advisor Gary A. Smith, M.D., Dr.P.H., senior author of the study and president of the Child Injury Prevention Alliance. Move furniture and beds away from windows. Children are likely to climb up to get a better view outside, increasing the chance of a fall. Choose safe window treatments. Not only can window cords pose a strangulation

America, where has our freedom gone?

Those patriots opposed the established government of their day, and public sentiment was not solidly in their favor, yet they spoke and acted nonetheless. Remember that the next time you feel like calling protesters unpatriotic. TONY PARKES, VIA E-MAIL

As a Yahoo mail user for more than a decade, I’m appalled that Yahoo censors me from commenting on its news items. I thought this was a democracy with free speech? Why does Yahoo limit news article comment regions to those with Neo-Con Hawkish comments who stir up hatred for Muslims and bar 9/11 truth commenters from its pages? Is this China now? CHARLES MICHAEL COUCH, BED-STUY

Is anyone else appalled at the idea of a “First Amendment designated area” for protesters? It implies that free speech doesn’t exist unless those in power give special permission. Can you imagine what the original patriots would have thought of this?

Both sides of the immigration divide RE: “ON IMMIGRATION: OBAMA GOES TOO FAR”: In the sense of

granting the children of illegals, who had no say in where they were to be, a reprieve from deportation, President Obama showed some sympathy for those within a nation who have many jumping at the bit to toss them over the fence. They are and were not to blame for their predicament. The vitriol

lobbed at him for not caring for his own people is also interesting, as many of these folks are the same who want less government involvement with their lives to begin with or would scrap social programs at the drop of a hat. In this move, he is offering these children a lifetime opportunity to actually give back and perhaps make up for the moves their parents made. COLIN MINICH, VIA E-MAIL I would be interested in hearing alternatives from those who are opposed to giving young illegal immigrants amnesty. GLORIA CHALVET, VIA E-MAIL

Horoscope

President Obama has chosen to make his own laws on immigration. In this case, he has chosen to allow younger immigrants to stay and get jobs because he says this is the right thing to do! Obviously he knows that he has alienated his supporters because he makes his own laws and bows to perverts and fringe groups. What we must understand is that this is a president who is desperate, so he’s doing whatever he can to get support. As a result, the president is looking for anything that people are emotionally connected to so that he can play up to it in the hope of getting votes. We shouldn’t punish minors who come here when their parents bring them — but at the same time, there is a way to do things, a legal way to do things, and this president doesn’t seem to care about doing things legally. Whatever he wants, he simply thinks he should get it without understanding you can’t do anything any old way.

vacation destinations NANTUCKET ISLAND RESORTS

Big bucks for

Nantucket The White Elephant, with its panoramic views of Nantucket Harbor and a short walk from the island’s cozy downtown, is perfect for ﬁrst-time visitors.

Shoulder vs. peak prices Nantucket’s beauty might be more enjoyable in upper-70 temperatures, but the experience certainly isn’t ruined by coats and pants. Plus, what you save on room rates, you can spend on lobster! Here’s a

comparison of high and low prices at Nantucket Island Resort properties. Take a look before you decide when to book!

The island is rich in history, and it helps to be rich to enjoy it Make no mistake, though, we were able to find some real deals

f you’re determined enough to brunch at Nantucket’s remote Wauwinet Inn, the lobster roll and Bloody Mary from the acclaimed Topper’s Restaurant is exquisite and worth the $41. It’s not just that the lobster is mouthwatering and the Bloody Mary is the right blend of pepper, hot sauce and vodka — you really pay for the view of Nantucket Harbor from the island’s eastern end, a scene that remains as close to the turn of the 20th century as any on the much-developed East Coast. Rich in history that dates to a once-prominent whaling industry, Nantucket and its modern aversion to well, modernity, has captured the best of old New England. (The island’s governing bodies have established among many local rules a prohibition on any chains with more than 14 stores, except that rascal Ralph Lauren, and tight restrictions on how building exteriors look.)

“Each property is diﬀerent. You can transform yourself, depending on where you stay.” KHALED HASHEM, MANAGING DIRECTOR OF NANTUCKET ISLAND RESORTS

More than ever, the island has opened up for travelers to sneak in and take an extended peek — long weekend, anyone? Nonstop flights from New York City’s JFK Airport and from Boston on JetBlue now fly daily. A second daily flight is being added this month. The flights aren’t the only good deals. A resort empire consolidated in the last two decades from existing hotels and cottages on the island by a Boston-based real estate mogul now offers very advantageous “shoulder season” deals. BRIAN X.

road trips

Tough navigation The biggest challenge to Route 66 travel today is staying on the original route, says David Knudson, founder and executive director of the National Historic Route 66 Federation. Signs are inconsistent along the route, and many are stolen for souvenirs.

“It’s hard to follow without a good map,” says Knudson, whose group publishes a Route 66 guide. “Some parts of the road have deteriorated, some are in good shape and some parts were removed years ago and replaced with cornfields. About 80 percent of the original route is still drivable.”

The federal government no longer maintains any of the route, so repairs are done by various cities, counties and states that took over each section, Knudson says. His federation has a program that recruits people to monitor the condition of 100-mile stretches of the road.

Travelers still get their kicks on Route 66

Route 66 hasn’t been a real highway for almost three decades. The last section of the fabled U.S. route from Chicago to Santa Monica was dropped as a federal highway in 1984. But its hold on travelers’ imaginations has revived motels, diners, souvenir shops, gas stations and other buildings along the old route. The enduring fascination, along with some federal grants, has helped Route 66 thrive, even as people old enough to remember its heyday die off. “People are looking to see the real America, not Walt Disney’s version,” says Ron Hart, director and founder of the Route 66 Chamber of Commerce in Carthage, Missouri. A Rutgers University study released in March estimated that people spend $132 million annually along old Route 66, which crosses eight states and

is marked in some places by ceremonial signs. Visitors encounter attractions like the Boots Motel, which Hart, as property manager, restored to its late 1940s glory ahead of its re-opening last month. Route 66 includes quirky sights like the Cadillac Ranch near Amarillo, Texas, which features a series of half-buried Cadillacs with their fins up. In Catoosa, Okla., there is a giant open-mouthed whale built over a popular Route 66 swimming hole. The route was completed in the mid-1920s and gained fame in the 1930s when it was described in John Steinbeck’s novel “The Grapes of Wrath.” It later became the family vacation route to the Southwest and was romanticized in movies and music, as well as on television.

Cleared for launch Clemens cleared on all six counts in perjury trial Rocket gets weepy post verdict, speech to media Girardi, Jeter happy to move past questions

SAUL LOEB/AFP/GETTY IMAGES

The verdict in Roger Clemens’ perjury trial was rendered yesterday afternoon and a jury found him not guilty on the six counts. That included three counts of making false statements, two counts of perjury and one count of obstruction. Manager Joe Girardi and captain Derek Jeter, who were teammates with Clemens, addressed the verdict, which was revealed after roughly 10 hours of deliberations. Both sounded pleased the trial was over as they spoke briefly outside the Yankee dugout before last night’s game. “I think it means a lot for him, first and foremost. That’s an important thing,” Jeter said. “I mean it’s great for the game that we can stop talking about it now you know what I mean. I mean this stuff has been going for a long time and I’m glad that it’s over with. I’m pretty sure baseball fans will be happy that it’s over with.” “I think we get all these trials out of the way, we move on,” Girardi said. “I think it does [move us past that era] because it seems like every time someone was brought up for a grand jury or went for trial, it focused on what’s been going on the last 10 to 15 years. Now it seems like we’re beyond [that]. We can focus on what’s going on the next 10 years.” Both also addressed Clemens’ career and his chances of being inducted into the Hall of Fame. “He had one of the best ca-

joyed playing with. He’s going to go down as one of the greatest pitchers of all time.” “I don’t know. I mean when you look at his numbers, they’re absolutely incredible for what he did over his career here,” Girardi said. “I mean, that’s what the vot-

Tomlinson hangs it up The career of former Chargers and Jets running back LaDainian Tomlinson came to an end yesterday after 11 storied seasons in the NFL. Tomlinson signed a one-day contract with San Diego so he could retire with the Chargers. When Tomlinson left San Diego two years ago, he said the topic of him coming back and retiring a Charger was broached. “Without question, I said ‘Yes,’ because I always felt like I was a Charger,” he said. Tomlinson was critical of the Jets on Showtime’s “Inside the NFL” in January. But only had positives to say yesterday. “Two great years in New York, chasing the dream, chasing that Super Bowl trophy,” Tomlinson said. “I want to thank them as well.” KRISTIAN DYER
