In the news Pedestrian struck

by Duck Boat BOSTON. A pedestrian

suffered minor injuries after being struck by a Boston Duck Tours vehicle at Bowdoin and Cambridge streets around 1:50 p.m. Tuesday.

Boston Duck Tours General Manager Cindy Brown told the Boston Globe the amphibious boat was turning left at 2 or 3 miles per hour onto Cambridge Street during a green light when it struck the pedestrian, who was believed to be jaywalking.

Brown told the Globe she was “relieved” that the victim’s injuries were minor.

Coakley pushes tax relief for distressed homeowners

Martha Coakley urged Congress on Tuesday to extend tax relief for consumers who have mortgage debt canceled or forgiven because of financial hardship or a decline in housing values.

Coakley joined 41 attorneys general in sending a letter to U.S. House and Senate leaders urging them to extend the exclusion, which has been in effect since 2007 and will otherwise expire on Dec. 31.

Failure to act could cost taxpayers $1.3 billion over two years, Coakley’s office said. METRO

Whirlwind after controversial photograph goes viral on Net Lindsey Stone defends her photo at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Thousands rally to get her fired FACEBOOK

Creators of a Facebook page that sprang up late Monday night are demanding that a Plymouth woman be fired for posting a photograph of herself flipping the middle finger and pretending to scream in front of a “Silence and Respect” sign at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Plymouth resident Lindsey Stone was visiting the tomb in Arlington National Cemetery last month on a business trip with another co-worker when she made the gestures. The photograph was posted on her personal Facebook page.

“Fire Lindsey Stone” had more than 6,300 “likes” on Facebook as of Tuesday afternoon. Creators of the page said they “will only accept termination.”

Earlier on Tuesday, the Hyannis-based nonprofit Living Independently Forever, Inc., which assists people with learning and intellectual disabilities, announced that it put Stone and her unidentified co-worker on unpaid leave.

“On Nov. 19 at approximately 6 p.m., we became aware that one of our employees had posted an offensive, inappropriate photograph on her personal Facebook page. The photo was taken at a national historic site in October by a fellow employee during a trip to Washington, D.C., attended by 40 residents and eight staff. The photo has since been removed from Facebook, and both employees have been placed on unpaid leave

This controversial photo has landed Stone in hot water.

Mass. ACLU weighs in “Private companies have a lot more leeway under the law to fire or punish employees for their speech outside of work than do government employers. Either workers need to organize together to protect their speech outside of the office from employer reprisals, or they need to

pending the results of an internal investigation.”

“This photograph in no way reflects the opinions or values of the LIFE organization, which holds our nation’s veterans in the highest regard. We are proud to have veterans serving on our staff and board of trustees, and we value their service. The men and women who have selflessly fought and sacrificed their lives to protect the rights and lives of Ameri-

watch what they say online.

No matter what, if you use Facebook, ensure that you have the strictest privacy controls locked in. While not a totally foolproof fix for the problem, it will keep the whole world from looking at your possibly regrettable or simply private Facebook photos and wall postings.”

— KADE CROCKFORD, THE MASSACHUSETTS ACLU’S DIRECTOR OF TECHNOLOGY FOR THE LIBERTY PROJECT

cans deserve our utmost respect and gratitude. We are acutely aware that this photo has done a disservice to veterans and we are deeply saddened that it was taken and shared in a public medium.”

Attempts to reach Stone for comment were unsuccessful Tuesday.

“Whoa whoa whoa... wait. This is just us, being the douchebags that we are, challenging authority in general. Much like the pic posted the night before, of me smoking right next to a no smoking sign. OBVIOUSLY we meant NO disrespect to the people that serve or have served our country.”

A MESSAGE POSTED ON STONE’S FACEBOOK PAGE AT 10:20 A.M. TUESDAY

Arlington responds “Arlington National Cemetery is a national shrine which honors the service and sacrifice of the hundreds of thousands of veterans and their families who are laid to rest on these hallowed grounds.

We ask that all visitors to the cemetery comport themselves in a manner that is in keeping with the sacrifice of our service members laid to rest here.”

Trio of crashes on Route 3 Route 3 was packed with turmoil Tuesday afternoon, with state police reporting two rollover crashes and one crash involving a deer — all within a 40-minute period.

The first rollover crash happened at 11:50 a.m. on the northbound side of Route 3 in Hingham.

The cause of the crash had not determined Tuesday evening, but police said two people were taken to South Shore Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

There was another crash about 10 minutes later, on the southbound side of Route 3 — within sight of the first crash.

A vehicle was transporting a couch that fell off into the road, police said. Another car swerved to avoid the couch and rolled over, sending two more people to South Shore Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police said the driver will be cited for the unsecured load.

The third accident involved a vehicle striking a deer on the northbound side of Route 3 by Exit 13 in Hanover. The deer ran into the woods after damaging the vehicle, police said.

Traffic was shut down intermittently for medical assistance, clean up and removal of vehicles, police said.

As of 12:30 p.m. Route 3 had been completely reopened. METRO/MR

Group issues list of 10 worst toys NICOLAUS CZARNECKI/METRO

Bad toys The 2012 worst toys and their hazards, according to W.A.T.C.H. are:

Many of the toys on the list are made by major toy manufacturers.

Some of the toys may look fun to a 5-year-old, but a Boston-based child safety group is warning parents about the 10 worst toys for this holiday season.

The annual 10 worst toys list was unveiled Tuesday morning by W.A.T.C.H. at the Franciscan Hospital for Children in Brighton.

“Don’t assume because a toy reaches a toy shelf [in a store] that it is necessarily safe,” said James Swartz, director of World Against Toys Causing Harm, Inc., the safety group has put out the list for 40 years.

The toys on this year’s list include a sword, a dart gun and a water balloon slingshot that warns the balloons can be fired at up to 75 mph.

“At the holidays, and every day, parents and caregivers must be aware of the dangers

that even seemingly safe toys can present,” said Dr. Varuna Tuli, a pediatrician at Franciscan Hospital.

Swartz warned that there are also dangers in online shopping. He said products sold online can misstate or ignore some of the safety warnings that are offered on the toy box or by the manufacturer.

Joan Siff, the president of W.A.T.C.H, said that in the years the group has released its list there have been some improvements, but more needs to be done.

“We are in a battle fighting for safer children’s products and toys,” she informed.

“Our weapon in this battle is educating families and parents.”

Inmate’s sex change surgery put on hold An inmate who recently won her more than decadelong battle to have sex change surgery will have to wait a little longer.

A federal judge ruled on Tuesday that the sex change he said the state Department of Correction must provide to convicted wife killer Michelle Kosilek must be put on hold while the state appeals the decision.

Chief Judge Mark Wolf ordered the stay of the surgery with the condition of monthly reports on its progress so that if his decision is upheld, the DOC can “provide Kosilek sex reassignment surgery promptly.” Wolf has expressed concerns about the state moving forward in a timely manner to find a doctor and where the surgery would take place.

The DOC “shall take forthwith all of the actions reasonably necessary to provide Kosilek sex reassignment surgery as promptly as possible if the … decision ordering such treatment is affirmed,” Wolf wrote in his order.

Kosilek, who was born Robert, was convicted in 1990 of killing his wife Cheryl in Mansfield. Kosilek sued the DOC for not providing her with a sex change and claimed it violated her Eighth Amendment rights. Earlier this year Wolf issued a controversial ruling in which he sided with Kosilek and said she suffered from a “mental illness” that must be treated.

Wolf on Tuesday also re-

What is the next step?

It is now up to the First Circuit Court of Appeals to review the controversial decision to award Kosilek sex reassignment surgery.

Shortly after the ruling was announced in early September, a group of about 50 lawmakers signed a letter that urged the DOC commissioner to appeal the decision.

“The Court’s decision, if left standing, will compel an absurd action by your department,” the lawmakers wrote in their letter to DOC Commissioner Luis Spencer.

A Mattapan man is accused of biting and beating a cab driver Tuesday during an early morning dispute at Wonderland Station in Revere.

Around 1:30 a.m., Ivan Hernandez, 22, of Dorchester, and Jevaun Jacques, 21, of Mattapan, allegedly approached an MBTA employee claiming to be T employees and demanded a ride, transit police said.

When the T worker refused, the pair headed to a nearby cab and demanded to be driven to Blue Hills for $20, but the driver refused, saying it would cost $50.

That’s when Jacques allegedly put his fist through the cab window, breaking its

glass, and punching the driver in the head, causing multiple cuts to his face.

Another cab driver reportedly came to help his colleague, and that’s when Hernandez and Jacques allegedly battered that driver — but it was Jacques who allegedly took a bite out of that driver’s hand, breaking his skin.

Both men were arrested and charged with a slew of offenses, including assault and battery on a police officer. Jacques is accused of kicking an officer in the hip during his arrest.

Hernandez and Jacques were due in court sometime Tuesday. METRO/MR

Hoping to curb violence throughout the upcoming holiday season, the city’s clergy members were joined by law enforcement officials to launch the biannual “Season of Peace.”

“Our employees and our customers all live in the communities that may be affected by the violence,” Transit Police Chief Paul MacMillan said. “It’s our obligation that transit is provided in a safe and secure way.”

The MBTA Transit Police is one of the agencies participating in the “Season of Peace” campaign that is organized by the Boston TenPoint Coalition and was launched Tuesday.

As part of the campaign that stretches from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, tens of thousands of club cards will be distributed to youth in various neighborhoods by clergy members, shop owners and others.

Also, about 100 buses will dis-

USE it or LOSE it

play the “Season of Peace” message through advertisements.

This year’s theme is “let pace reign” and the cards urge young people to think before they act, to take time out and let disagreements go.

The campaign is launched each year at two points when violence in the city increases: before the summer and before the winter holidays.

One variable that might disrupt the “Season of Peace” is the release of potentially hundreds of people convicted on drug crimes that had their cases tested by a rogue chemist who is accused of tainting drug samples.

Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis said Tuesday that inmates about to be released have been sent a message from officers in meetings that “if you’re going to reoffend, we are going to be there and arrest you.”

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was in Jerusalem for talks on Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as expectations rose of a ceasefire soon to end a week of fighting around the Gaza Strip.

However, Gaza’s rulers, the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, revised a statement that a truce would start overnight, saying it was still waiting for an Israeli response to proposals and did not now expect an announcement until Wednesday.

An official in the Egyptian government, whose new, Islamist leadership has been playing peace broker in Cairo, had also said a ceasefire could begin on Tuesday. But Israeli officials continued to say that discussions were still continuing.

One Hamas official had said a truce might start at 9 p.m.

But after that moment passed, a senior figure in the movement, Ezzat al-Rishq, told Reuters in Cairo: “The truce is now held up because we are waiting for the Israeli side to respond.

The Jewish state launched the campaign last week with the declared aim of halting the rocketing of its towns from the Palestinian enclave, ruled by the Hamas militant group that does not recognize Israel’s right to exist.

Netanyahu said earlier yesterday that Israel was open to a long-term deal aimed at ending Palestinian rocket attacks.

Voice of Elmo quits after second sex claim Clash is out

Street star hit by new sex claim Kevin Clash, the puppeteer behind beloved Elmo of “Sesame Street,” has resigned after he became embroiled in an underage sex scandal.

Clash announced he is permanently leaving the children’s show after a second man, Cecil Singleton, named him in a lawsuit, saying he was 15 when he met and had sex with the 32-year-old Clash in 1993. Singleton said he met

Clash during a gay phone chat, according to TMZ This comes just one day after 23-year-old Sheldon Stephens, Clash’s first accuser, said he wanted to back out of a settlement that gave him $125,000 in return for saying his sexual relationship with the voice actor took place when they were both consenting adults. Stephens’ original claim that he was just 16 when he started having sex with Clash came to light last week.

Western officials voiced concern on Tuesday about what they described as an unexpected unloading of fuel at Iran’s first nuclear energy plant and said Tehran, which has dismissed it as a normal step, must clarify the issue.

The U.N. nuclear agency said in a confidential report on Friday that fuel assemblies were transferred last month from the reactor core of the Russian-built Bushehr plant to a spent fuel pond, but it gave no reason for the move. REUTER

‘Life of Pi’ Director: Ang Lee Cast: Suraj Sharma, Irrfan Khan, Rafe Spall Rating: PG Grade: Based on the book by Yann Martel, the story follows Pi Patel, who finds himself literally adrift in the Pacific Ocean after a boat carrying his family and all of the animals that once lived in their zoo capsizes. Left at sea with no one but a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a tiger named Richard Parker, Pi must do whatever it takes to keep himself alive and keep the Mr. Parker from getting hungry.

The 3-D special effects in the film are nothing short of dazzling. It’s a feast for the eyes to be sure, even when the story’s solitary nature leaves us wanting for a little more plot. One can easily begin to feel as bored as Pi. But the love and dedication director Ang Lee put into the film shows and the result is a well-rounded film that’s a treat on many levels. METRO/HP

HOLIDAY EDITION, NOVEMBER 21-25, 2012

Pi (Suraj Sharma) cautiously looks for his shipmate, a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker, in “Life of Pi.”

S

uraj Sharma is pretty much your average student. He’s polite, wellspoken and majoring in philosophy at college this year.

He also just starred in the new epic 3-D film by Ang Lee and counts the venerated director as a close friend who is legitimately his guru (there was a ceremony and everything).

Sharma had never acted before he took the title role in “Life of Pi” — he was selected out of thousands of nonprofessional actors auditioning for the part.

Playing a young man adrift at sea, Sharma lost weight, gained weight and learned to fish.

Along the way, he tells us, the film changed him into the man he is today.

What path you were on before this movie happened and where do you see things going now?

Before the movie I didn’t really know what to do. I was in school and I was, I would say, lost. … Luckily enough, [director Ang Lee] picked me up, took

“I changed as a person. I realized more about myself, more about everything. Working with Ang changes you.” SURAJ SHARMA me to Taiwan. Over there, I changed as a person. I realized more about myself, more about everything. Working with Ang changes you, I guess. Before “Pi” I was really a bad student. I didn’t do very well in school at all, ever, and I came back and I changed in a million ways. … I did surprisingly well in school.

I didn’t even know how. Suddenly I was getting, like, 94 percent. I decided now in college I’m doing philosophy.

Things really changed.

Did the movie inspire you to choose philosophy?

Oh yeah. I think Ang and Pi got to me. Lying on that board and talking to Ang, you kind of start

thinking on those lines, you start thinking about things, because Pi himself is this kid who asks questions like, “What is life?” He is into philosophy of his own kind and Ang himself has a really complex philosophy, which comes through when you talk to him. You kind of start thinking along those lines. Eventually I want to be a filmmaker, so I guess philosophy will help me in that way.

Some actors in your position might say forget school and do acting full-time.

I don’t know about the acting. I don’t know whether I want to act professionally much. It’s daunting, it’s scary and it’s different. I want to be a filmmaker. I want to tell stories. … I love acting now and the life is hard.

I don’t know if I’m equipped for it, but I’d like being on-set. I think that’s the most inspiring part of movies — just being onset. The intensity with which everybody works, 300 people just working, working, working for something, maybe even

Q&A Acting is hard normally — but then you also had to gain weight, lose weight, learn how to swim, learn how to fish. Which one of those tasks was the most challenging?

I think it was all just one, it came as one big package. I had to learn how to swim. I had to learn all these sea skills, do yoga, meditate, work out, gain weight, lose weight.

I had to read books, learn how to act. There were a million things to do. I can’t say one was harder than the other, it just all used to happen every day. So it was a big challenge just being there. All I wanted to do was keep Ang happy, because he had put so much trust into me. Fox and the crew, everybody was trusting someone who had no idea what they were doing.

three seconds long, different skills, different ideas, different backgrounds — everything just comes together and you make something and you make someone’s imagination come to life.

I read that your mother had a ritual performed in order for Ang to become your guru.

Basically my mum was kind of hesitant about the whole thing.

She was scared it was a risky decision. I was scared, too. In India the guru is a really important person. You kind of give yourself to them. … so I kind of asked him to be my guru and I did pranama, which is basically you kind of submit yourself. He accepted me as his student and he took it very seriously. It’s nice to see other people take things that are important to you seriously. He’s an amazing and really important person.

Seeing him care for you like that is really humbling.

“Red Dawn” hits theaters Wednesday.

‘Red Dawn’ gone wrong This reboot of the 1984 film is too self-conscious to enjoy the corny fun that made the original a cult hit

If you go

“A GREAT AMERICAN MOVIE. Spielberg, Kushner and Day-Lewis dare greatly in giving us this complex, conflicted portrait of a great American leader.”

Peter Travers

‘Red Dawn’ Which is more implausible: that the North Koreans would invade the West Coast of the U.S., turning friendly suburbs into occupied territories? Or that “Thor” star Chris Hemsworth and “The Wackness” and “Drake and Josh” alum Josh Peck are brothers? (It doesn’t help that Hemsworth happens to have a very believable actual younger brother named Liam currently starring in films.)

Let’s be honest: The original 1984 “Red Dawn” (with Patrick Swayze and Harry Dean Stanton) retains its cult classic status despite — or because of — its lack of quality. It’s a silly,

cheese-ball piece of late-Cold War paranoia, and at least it had the chutzpah to feature a big bad guy in the Soviet Union.

The remake’s decision to rewrite the Chinese villains as North Korean in post-production — without any reshoots or recasting — was apparently

“

done to improve its chances of playing in China and taking advantage of the country’s box office. It’s an example of a “playing it safe” mentality that ultimately sinks the film itself.

If they had just embraced the cheese, this could’ve actually been a lot of fun.

Alec Baldwin talks about his latest role as one of the most beloved characters in the world in the animated film, ‘Rise of the Guardians’

A

lec Baldwin is widely recognized for the huge variety of roles he’s played throughout his long, successful career, but you might not have expected him to tackle his latest character in the Dreamworks animated film, “Rise of the Guardians.”

Baldwin gives voice to an unconventional Santa Claus, with a thick, brutish accent and drawn with arms full of tattoos.

One of the film’s producers, Christina Steinberg, puts it perfectly: “Who’s more naughty and nice than Alec?”

Although Baldwin has voiced numerous characters in animated films in the past, including “Madagascar 2” and “Cats & Dogs,” you’d expect that children’s films wouldn’t be of much appeal considering his only daughter is now a teenager.

“I think that people all say that they want to ... do this children’s programming for your kids,” he says. “My daughter is 17 now, my daughter is watching God-knowswhat. It's kind of frightening, but I think that when they showed me that these were going to be edgier versions of these characters — when you see the Santa Claus figure it’s usually … a rosy-cheeked, saintly man with not a lot of dimension — [it] was a lot more real, so I loved that.”

The film follows a group of guardians — all mythical, iconic figures like the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny and Jack Frost — who must work together to take down the boogeyman, known as “Pitch,” who is

No one would argue with a Santa who has tat sleeves.

Baldwin talks about what’s next

Alec Baldwin

As he prepares to say goodbye to “30 Rock,” it seems Baldwin’s life is slowing down, as he says his career is all about quality rather than quantity now. “I’d rather just stay home with my wife and my two dogs and watch TV now. I’d rather watch a movie than make a movie any day,” he says. “I’m at a stage now where it’s more like when you were a child where you’re very present. When you’re kids, everything is very small. … Then you turn 50 — the world becomes a lot smaller and you’d rather do less things and do them well and have a more satisfying personal life.”

“I think they only told me because the more kids my mother had, the more wrapping they had to do. I immediately became enlisted as a wrapper.”

ALEC BALDWIN, ON LEARNING THE TRUTH ABOUT SANTA

haunting the dreams of children. Baldwin talked about his personal beliefs regarding Santa Claus when he was a child and how he discovered it was all a myth: “I walked into a room and my sister was wrapping presents with my mother and I was like, ‘Wait, what?’” he explains. “I think they only told me because the more kids my mother had, the more

wrapping they had to do. I immediately became enlisted as a wrapper.”

But just what was it like for Baldwin to play the legendary character? “The key with these kinds of films is to work your way toward a much warmer kind of humanistic place, literally in your voice. … The thing for me is to try to vary the tone. … You want to try to keep it warm, there’s a great deal of love and warmth in the piece, [but] there’s always a chance to make it really, really bombastic especially with the Santa Claus character. There’s a chance to make it very strident. The guy is very, very powerful in some scenes — but in other scenes you want to make it silly and fun and child-friendly.”

‘Guardians’ not quite a holiday classic

PARAMOUNT PICTURES

“Rise of the Guardians” revisits the simplicity of childhood, which has sadly been forgotten in many recent animated films. The Dreamworks flick is smart and innovative as it follows an “Avengers”-style storyline based on a group of iconic, mythical characters like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, who form an allegiance to protect the memories of children, which are being threatened by an evil spirit known as “Pitch.”

One of the strongest aspects of the film is how perfectly each character was cast. Alec Baldwin plays an unorthodox

If you go 'Rise of the Guardians' Director: Peter Ramsey Cast: Alec Baldwin, Jude Law, Hugh Jackman, Isla Fisher Rating: PG Grade:

Santa Claus, whilst Isla Fisher is a lovable, modern-day version of the Tooth Fairy. Not only is the story suitable for children — teenagers and older audiences can also relate to the film as it explores a range

of emotions and themes with a reasonable level of maturity and sophistication.

Based on the novels by William Joyce, “Rise of the Guardians” is a magical story that has the basics of a holiday classic, yet it’s hard to shake the feeling that there is something missing. Whilst the film leaves adults feeling nostalgic and warm and fuzzy inside, children might not find the flick as enjoyable and unforgettable as other holidaythemed favorites like “The Grinch” or “A Christmas Story.”

HOLIDAY EDITION, NOVEMBER 21-25, 2012

Tricky ‘Liz & Dick’ Lifetime movie gets lots of attention — but not the best kind Grant Bowler, who plays Richard Burton, can talk more about his role than he can co-star Lindsay Lohan JACK ZEMAN

Look. You can’t interview Grant Bowler, the star of the muchpublicized Lifetime Original Movie “Liz and Dick,” without asking him about his infamous co-star Lindsay Lohan.

Well, you can ask, but he won’t really answer.

“I speak for myself,” he says when asked what it was like to work with Lohan. “Oh, you know. [Sigh] I don’t know. It’s, well, you know.”

No, we don’t. Care to elaborate? What about all the attention the film is receiving because of Lohan’s first starring role in five years?

“Yeah, I think at the moment, with the film coming out. … Rah, rah, rah,” he trails off to dead silence.

Rah, rah, rah, indeed. Luckily, Bowler, who tackles the daunting challenge of portraying famed actor Richard Burton and his tumultuous, iconic love affair with screen siren Elizabeth Taylor, was more eloquent in talking about his role.

“There are so many downsides to playing a famous actor,” he says. “If you’re an actor and you play a famous tennis player, you’re not going to be compared to them — no one as-

Lindsay Lohan, as Elizabeth Taylor, and Grant Bowler, as Richard Burton, star in the Lifetime Original Movie “Liz & Dick,” premiering Sunday at 9 p.m. on Lifetime.

sumes you can play tennis. To play an actor is a treacherous thing to take on.”

Bowler says he was able to take on Burton “bit by bit.” “I bit him off in chunks,” he says.

“We covered so much time — 30 years — so I kind of started with the major turning points in their relationship. I looked at archival footage of him being interviewed and watched a lot of movies. But nothing was as informative as him being interviewed and watching them be-

ing interviewed together.”

OK. But back to Lohan. Really this time.

“When you tell any story, you want as many people to listen as possible,” he tastefully acquiesces about the amount of publicity given to “Liz & Dick” — and maybe not the best kind of attention. “It’s very, very hard telling a story to an empty room.”

Talking points The latest on Gomez and Bieber It’s getting tough to keep track of where Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are in their breaking up and making up.

After a fiery, argument-filled dinner this weekend that ended with Gomez storming off, the pair apparently reunited after the American Music Awards Sunday night to celebrate Bieber’s wins, according to Us Weekly. Gomez and Bieber hit up a private party hosted by Bieber’s manager, sticking to a hidden table in the back room with plenty of security around as they snuck in a few kisses, a source reveals, adding that they were “dancing on each other.

Swift moves on with One Direction star Taylor Swift appears to have moved on from her recent breakup with Conor Kennedy, as the lovelorn singer is now reportedly dating One Direction member Harry Styles — or at least they’re “officially hanging out,” according to Mario Lopez, who saw the two walking hand in hand after a taping for “The X

After being more than four hours late for her performance in Berlin on Sunday, we were pleasantly surprised when Rihanna was only an hour late on Monday to light the Christmas lights at the Westfield Shopping Mall in London. Rumors swirled that she pocketed around 500,000 pounds just to show up, but a representative from the mall denied that rumor.

“I love this album like it wasn’t my own!” she exclaimed about the launch of “Unapologetic.” But after only one song, she took off in a golf cart.

Audience members were

“I’ve been waiting since 12 o’clock. I love Rihanna, but she could have played more than one song,” fan Vanessa Leadbitter lamented.

We then followed the elusive star to her intimate show at Kentish Town’s HMV Forum, which she almost (almost!) made on time. There, she put on her best performance since Saturday’s show in Stockholm.

She was nowhere to be seen at the after-party, but the backing band was (kinda) pleased about the show. “It helps not being four hours late,” one muttered.

On the flight to her final stop in New York City on Wednesday, missing posters circulated which read: “Missing: Robyn Rihanna Fenty,” as the songstress hasn’t been seen on the plane by the two hundred journalists and fans beyond passing out champagne to them on the first day.

They also found time for some romantic dinners out and strolling around the city while holding hands, doing little to keep their relationship under wraps.

Perfect wine pairings with Thanksgiving You’re going to need more than one bottle of wine, friends Let Keri Levens, the wine director for Aquavit, one of New York’s Michelin starred-restaurants, guide you

Y

Jaillance’s Clairette de Die Cuvee Impériale ($17) pairs well with dessert.

our turkey is defrosted, the cranberry sauce is made, the pies are cooling and you’ve followed your Aunt Alice’s creamed onion recipe to a T. You’re feeling on top of the world — until you remember that you need something to wash this all down with. Don’t despair, Keri Levens, the wine director for Aquavit, New York’s newly minted Michelin-starred restaurant, is here to guide you through the perfect pairings.

To begin, Levens recommends looking for a fullerbodied white wine and lighter bodied red for your Thanksgiving table. “For white, I recommend Domaine du Tariquet, a wine producer from Gascony in southwest France. Look for their wine called Classic, a stunning white wine at an incredible value, around $9. This Uni Blanc/Colombard blend is perfect throughout the entire meal. For red, I look to the Pinot Noirs of Oregon such as Domaine Serene or Cristom for their elegance, versatility and ripe fruit and cranberry character,” she says.

Levens notes that turkey can be a very tricky pairing.

How to serve your wine “Thanksgiving is communal. There’s no reason to be stuffy about wine service,” she says, meaning you don’t need to replace your guests’ wine glasses after each course. “As long as your wines are served at the right temperature, a quick rinse between wines will help each glass shine.”

Will your Thanksgiving table have the best wine pairings?

How to tackle the wine store like a pro Does the thought of trying to navigate the wine store fill you with dread? Levens says an easy place to begin is with bottles from the Alsace region of France. They label their wine by

grape variety so it’s easy to pick out a full-bodied Pinot Gris or a crisp and complex Riesling and know what you’re getting.

“Both of these would compliment dishes with mushrooms, spicy sausage stuffing or even a dish with a hint of natural sweetness like sweet potato,” she notes. “For red drinkers, Alsace produces earthy yet lightbodied Pinot Noir.”

Arbour Hospital is a 118-bed private psychiatric facility located in Boston’s Jamaica Plain neighborhood.

The Hospital recently renovated their Adolescent Unit in Jamaica Plain and also opened a new 18-bed, Adult Inpatient Psychiatric Unit in Quincy, MA. Arbour Hospital specializes in adult and adolescent mental health treatment as well as dual diagnosis services. Other services include Latino, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), and outpatient treatment. Arbour Hospital in Jamaica Plain is recruiting individuals who are looking for a rewarding and exciting career in a Behavioral Health and are seeking:

Clinicians to work in our Dual Diagnosis and Structured Outpatient Addiction Program (SOAP). LMHC, LICSW, LADC, and CADAC licensure preferred, but license eligible applicants accepted. Clinicians will be conducting groups, performing individual treatment and case management, and interfacing with managed care organizations.

Candidates should have established skills in the integrated treatment of addictions and co-occurring disorders.

Full-time, benefit eligible and per-diem shifts available.

Cook to join our team of culinary professionals.

The position is full-time, 32-40 hours per week (alternating weekends required).

“There is much debate about whether to serve white or red,” she admits. So she goes with one sommelier’s secret: “Pair to the sauce instead.”

And don’t overlook dessert, which needs its own bottle.

“With the diversity of dishes, it’s best to go with a delicate and versatile option,” she says.

Levens likes Jalliance Clairette de Die, saying it’s not overly sweet.

“This delicate sparkler is made with 100 percent Muscat, the same grape as Moscato, so it won’t be too heavy after a big meal. It has refreshing acidity to help lighten a rich dessert like pumpkin pie.”

DOROTHY ROBINSON

dorothy.robinson@metro.us

Candidates must be able to broil, sauté, roast, bake, fry and prepare soups and stocks from scratch. Salary based on experience. Min. 5 years experience in a healthcare, intuitional, or corporate dining operation; ServSafe and Allergen Awareness certified.

Master’s Prepared Clinician to work on both an Adolescent and Adult Inpatient Psychiatric Unit. Primary responsibility will be on an adolescent unit.

The appropriate candidate must be well organized, well prepared for presentations, be able to multi-task, have good

Other suggestions Aperitif: Greet family and friends with a flute of sparkling (and affordable) Jaillance Cremant de Bordeaux or partner hors d’oeuvres with Domaine du Tariquet Classic, a refreshing white with delightful citrus notes.

Main course: Alsace Riesling is the most versatile accompaniment for the array of Thanksgiving dishes. With enough body to stand up to the turkey and starchy dishes, its crisp acidity is refreshing throughout the meal. The “red wine-only” drinkers will enjoy Domaine du Tariquet’s Chenin Blanc-Chardonnay or Alsace Pinot Gris for their food-friendly and fuller-bodied nature. Keep the bubbles flowing with Cremant d’Alsace Rosé, a dry and fruity sparkling wine that pairs excellently with cranberry sauce.

Dessert: What could be more refreshing after a rich meal than a lightly sweet and fizzy glass of Jaillance Clairette de Die Cuvee Imperiale? Perhaps an Autumn Cobbler, a sophisticated yet simple cocktail twist made with Jaillance Clairette de Die, sherry and cinnamon.

communication skills and be able to work in a fast-paced environment. Master’s Degree preferred. Candidate must have a minimum of Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing.

Chef and TV host Kelsey Nixon of “Kelsey’s Kitchen� joined forces with Hershey’s Moderation Nation program to create recipes that allow us to indulge during the holidays — without the guilt.

Her solution: mini desserts. “Rather than filling up a whole plate with your dessert, bake or serve them in small containers like shot glasses or mini mason jars to help you keep the portions small, but fun,� says Nixon. “It is also fun to give these as gifts or party favors over the holidays,� she adds.

GOP only wins votes by cheating RE: “GOP NOT GOING GREEN ANY TIME SOON” (METRO, NOV. 20) Be-

fore anyone, including letter writer Kevin Metz, becomes too convinced that a Republican-controlled House of Representatives is the true voice of the people, let me point out one major fact: Nationwide, Democratic House candidates received about a half-million more votes than Republicans did.

The only reason they still have more seats and John Boehner is still speaker is that crooked, gerrymandered districts, mostly drawn by Republican-controlled state legislatures, guaranteed this outcome. In reality, the people spoke — but because of the Eric Cantors and Paul Ryans and other assorted teabaggers it will be

immensely more difficult for the people’s will to be done.

But, President Obama is nothing if not a fighter, a winning fighter, so we have a fighting chance.

PAUL SIMONS, VIA E-MAIL

Israel justified in bombing civilians RE: “HAMAS: ISRAELI AIR STRIKE KILLS 11 CIVILIANS IN GAZA” (METRO, NOV. 19) Reading this

article made me very furious!

I was shocked at how incorrect your newspaper presents information to New Yorkers.

Israel bombed the building aiming to kill Yihia Abayah (a senior commander of rocket operations in Gaza) like mentioned. The article claims that this terrorist tried to escape the attack. Actually, he was killed by Israel in the attack!

letters@metro.us

This man is responsible for all the rocket launching by the Islamic Jihad and Hamas from Gaza into Israel aiming at killing innocent people for no reason. Your paper presents the Israeli army as the cruel one with no morals. The people in the house were helping the terrorists by keeping rocket ammunition and fostering terrorists. This fact makes them war criminals just like the terrorists they try to protect.

These terrorists in the Gaza Strip use civilian homes to hide weapons and launch their rocket at Israel. Every Israeli attack in Gaza is executed thanks to intelligence reports that have enough evidence that this house or person is responsible or involved in a terrorist act. Israel doesn’t just bomb what-

Horoscope

ever they feel like. Nothing of these facts and circumstances were mentioned in the newspaper! Nothing was mentioned about how much Israelis suffer and are afraid to get hit by rockets and the fact that over a million Israelis have to hide in shelters from these terrorists.

Scorpio Oct. 24-Nov. 22. Try to subdue your fondness for risk when it comes to a financial matter with high stakes. Bucking the odds isn’t likely to work out too well, and you know it.

Sagittarius Nov. 23-Dec. 21. Force yourself to avoid repeating a recent mistake, even if you think things will work differently this time around.

They won’t. Live and learn.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19. Just because a certain philosophy fits another doesn’t mean it’s tailored to your requirements. You’d be happier living your own life, with your own patterns.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 19. Regardless of who you are thrown together with, be gracious and thoughtful. Remember: People are always observing you, and bad behavior won’t be readily forgiven.

Pisces Feb. 20-March 20. Heed the notion that what you do might affect others. Take care to avoid doing anything that would inconvenience someone else, especially if the other party isn’t involved in your decision-making.

Aries March 21-April 19. Trouble is lurking if you attempt to stretch the truth regarding some important information. You should tell it like it is,

REUVEN ALAYEV, VIA E-MAIL

It’s a bad decision to stick by allies, even when wrong While my country supports Israel, I do not. I can never support the oppression of any culture over another. My heart bleeds for Palestine and her people. Over the decades, I’ve watched their defense turn from rocks to rockets against an opponent who has an army, navy, airforce and nuclear weapons. Like all recent American presidents, Obama will do what’s best for this country by supporting its allies to the fullest. Too bad it’s the wrong decision.

RICH BRITTLE, VIA E-MAIL

no matter the consequences. If you fudge, you’ll just make things worse.

Taurus April 20-May 20. There are strong indications that wastefulness on your part could become a major problem. Get hold of yourself immediately.

Gemini May 21-June 20. Friends, co-workers and family will all resent it if you’re too self-serving. Be careful not to put your needs or wants above those of everybody else.

Cancer June 21-July 22. It’s important that you see your problems for what they really are and not through rose-colored glasses. It won’t do you any good.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22. Engaging in the least expensive activity is likely to turn out to be the most satisfying for you in the long run. No matter how tempting the alternative, stick with the cheaper option.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22. A personal objective you’re hoping to squeeze into your schedule looks like it isn’t likely to get done, not through any fault of yours. Other factors could be working against you.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 23.The exaggerations of another might elevate your expectations to false heights if you’re not careful, so be aware of whom you place your trust in. The crash could be huge, if you’re taken in. BERNICE BEDE OSOL

Familiar feasting Pats invade Meadowlands on Thanksgiving night for showdown with old enemy Brady 8-2 all-time at the Jets First game without Gronk GETTY IMAGES

Three things to watch tomorrow night as the Pats and Jets tangle on Thanksgiving (8 p.m., NBC) for the first time:

1

LIFE WITHOUT GRONK

By now you’ve heard the news: Rob Gronkowski is out anywhere from four to eight weeks. So what’s this mean for the Patriots?

Well, Tom Brady is without his favorite red-zone target — that’s for sure. But luckily for the Pats, they aren’t a oneman band. New England will have plenty of other options up and down the field on Sunday, and that means the running game, too. In fact, the Patriots would be wise to keep the ball on the ground Thursday night. New York ranks 30th in the NFL in rush defense, giving up an average of 142 yards per game. Stevan Ridley could have a very memorable Thanksgiving.

2

STUFFING SANCHEZ

For all the hype that surrounds Andrew Luck, the rookie’s quarterback rating is 77.2, ranked 28th in the NFL. To put that into perspective, Mark Sanchez

comes in at 29th with a 73.4 rating. Make no mistake about it, though — Luck has a real future in the NFL, while Sanchez’s starts seem to become less and less likely by the week. If you’re looking for a real goat — or turkey — on Thursday night, it could be Sanchez.

The Patriots’ secondary is nothing to brag about, but the defense as a whole does one thing better than any other in the NFL: create turnovers. The Patriots are a plus-20 in turnover differential this season.

sports@metro.us

football facts A look at the NFL through the eyes of the stat experts at Coldhard football facts.com:

NFL Network named former Colts star John Mackey the greatest tight end in history.

He caught 38 TD passes in a 10-year career. Patriots superstud tight end Rob Gronkowski, injured against the Colts on Sunday, has already caught 37 TD passes in 2.5 seasons. Here’s how Gronk already sizes up vs.

Hall of Fame tight ends.

Receiving TDs: Gronkowski vs. Hall of Fame tight ends Sh. Sharpe (14 yrs) — 62 Dave Casper (11) — 52 Ozzie Newsome (13) — 47 Kellen Winslow (9) — 45 Mike Ditka (12) — 43 Jackie Smith (16) — 40 John Mackey (10) — 38 Gronkowski (2.5) — 37

JIMMY TOSCANO

The cold, hard

Down goes Gronk!

Down goes Gronk!

SINCE WE LAST MET ...

It took overtime for the Pats to squeak out a win over the Jets in Foxboro. Since that win, though, the Pats have won three more games, giving them a four-game win streak heading into Thursday night. While the Jets certainly won’t lie down, this Patriots team is a lot better than the one in Week 7’s OT win — with Gronkowski or not.

23

HOLIDAY EDITION, NOVEMBER 21-25, 2012

FFChamps.com Fantasy Impact Player: Randall

Dustin Keller and the Jets have had their moments against the Patriots’ often suspect defense.

Cobb, WR, Green Bay — Giants ‘D’ has surrendered 15 touchdowns to wide receivers this year.

3 In the news

Darko done?

The Celtics will be in no hurry to fill the vacated roster spot left

by Darko Milicic, who is expected to leave the team to be with his ailing mother in Serbia. Milicic may not return to Boston at all.

Free agent Kenyon Martin has been mentioned as a possible replacement, but Doc Rivers said yesterday that the Celtics are in “no rush.”

HOLIDAY EDITION, NOVEMBER 21-25, 2012

at home with metro

Make yourself at home!

Hosting friends or family this holiday season? It’s the small gestures that really make houseguests feel welcome Warning: You might be seeing them more often after this stay POLKA DOT

Don’t wait for them to ask Set out a towel and some small luxuries — like an eye mask or those little bottles of fancy body wash and lotion you swiped from your last hotel stay — on the foot of their makeshift bed.

Also, write down your Internet password so they can log on to your computer without feeling like a burden.

+ Another tip

Give them a tour Even if you live in a teeny tiny apartment, show your guests around. Take them to the kitchen and point out the correct cabinets for glasses and how to use the coffeemaker. Then show them the snacks — like their favorite flavor of Haagen-Dazs — you’ve stocked up on, and invite them to help themselves.

Stock up on tissues and TP before your guests come to town.

Find them a place

Go the extra mile

Before your out-of-town visitors arrive, designate a space that will be just theirs. Clear the area so that when they get there, they have a place to settle in. This might involve setting up the air mattress in advance, clearing out a drawer for their things, making some room in your own closet or investing in a luggage rack to prop up their suitcase.

To really give your guests the royal treatment, make a beautiful bed. Iron their sheets for that crisp, fresh feel and include both a lighter cover and heavier blanket to give them options. Put out fresh-cut flowers (the ones from the bodega work just fine) and finish things off with a chocolate on their pillow.

COMSTOCK

A nightstand is key.

The all-important nightstand A few touches can make even sleeping on your couch feel like a retreat. Place a table next to their bed with the following key

items: a lamp in case they want to read before bed, some magazines, a book you like and a carafe with water.

THANKSGIVING TURKEYS

By Attorney George Warshaw his Thanksgiving I submit for your consideration my 2012 awards for “Turkey of the Year.�

T

Turkey of the Year. The United States Senate and Congress, with honors, for showing fearless stupidity in the face of common sense and for putting themselves and their party above the best interests of the people who elected them (but don’t they always do that!).

Without question, these Republican and Democrat butterballs (or butterheads) thought it more important to embarrass the other side in the name of self-righteous indignation that fooled no one. For this they all deserve to share collectively the Turkey of the Year award and be voted out. Unfortunately, too many of them returned to Congress where they will likely embarrass themselves and remain eligible for this award next year.

Runner-up Turkey of the Year. Mitt Romney, for hearing the Democratic Battle Cry of “Millionaires and Billionaires� and trying to prove it correct. One would think a person running for President for more than 8 years would have enough common sense to get rid of his foreign bank accounts a decade ago, delay building a new home with an elevator just for his car, and used his considerable wealth to set up a Bill Gates type of charitable foundation that tried to help people in need. Š 2012 George Warshaw.

THE BOSTON HOME CENTER

erhaps more than any other time of year, what with Thanksgiving, Hanukkah and holiday feasts to be cooked up, the kitchen is a focal point. Easy on the eye is one thing, but ease of use is quite another.

Kitchens can be a culinary haven or cooking nightmare, because, of all the aspects of interior design, kitchen planning is the most difficult.

For one thing, there’s so much big machinery that has to be included — refrigerator, sink, stove and microwave being the basics. Planning what goes where to maximize space and ease of use isn’t easy.

Then there are cabinets and small equipment such as blenders, mixers and, for many, the most important appliance — the coffee maker.

Go gas “I live in the North End and a lot of people have electric burners,” Tobin says. “Gas is better for cooking. Also, I like having two ovens; one should be a convection oven.

Or, if you have the budget, a convectional oven and microwave combined saves space.”

If your kitchen looks like this, you may need more counter space.

Prep space “Most people live in small spaces,” says Tobin. “Counter space is the No. 1 thing for a

kitchen. People put in the big pieces of equipment and run out of room. If you don’t have plenty of counter space, cooking is impossible.”

Size does matter! Robert Tobin likes sinks that fit roasting pans.

Sink your teeth into this The all-important kitchen sink: “The sink is important,

too. I like one big sink. Some people like the split sink with two bowls. There are the ones with three compartments. But a big one will take roasting pans. I go for one big trough.”
