Council pushes to let non-citizens cast votes Voting rights. The bill would allow immigrants here six months or longer the ability to vote in city elections. As a national debate on immigration reform heats up, the New York City Council is proposing an amendment that would grant broader immigrant voting rights, and the Bloomberg administration told Talking Points Memo they will not support it. The legislation, cosponsored by Councilman Daniel Dromm and Councilwoman Gale Brewer, would give legal immigrants who are residents of the city for six months or longer the right to vote in municipal elections. It had eight supporters
in the Council when it was first introduced in 2010. It currently has the support of 34 of the Council’s 51 members which is exactly the number of votes needed to override a veto from the mayor, Dromm told Metro. The mayor has long been a vocal proponent of immigration reform, but a spokesperson for his administration, Evelyn Erskine, told TPM “this bill violates the state constitution, and the administration does not support it.” While the majority vote in the Council could override a Bloomberg veto, the bill could still be stopped by Council Speaker Christine Quinn. Quinn decides when — if at all — bills come to the floor, so it’s up to her whether it gets voted on at all.

Voice editors resign Two top editors of the struggling alt-weekly The Village Voice resigned abruptly from their posts Thursday after being asked by management to make cuts to their editorial staff. Will Bourne, who became the paper’s editor-inchief last November, and Jessica Lustig, whom he tapped to be his deputy editor in January, quit so as not to “preside over further layoffs.” The editors were reportedly asked to lay off five people from their 20-person staff.

Police are looking for Sabrina Malone, 27, who was last seen on Saturday night around 8:30 p.m. leaving her parents’ house at 115 Columbia Street in Brooklyn. Investigators reportedly told NY1 that she slept at her parents’ house on Friday night and returned there after work on Saturday, before taking a bus home to her apartment in Crown Heights.
Malone is 5-foot-3 and 115 pounds with brown eyes, long curly black hair, and a tattoo on her hand. A law enforcement source said Malone’s disappearance is “a mystery”: Malone has never gone missing before and has no history of mental or physical issues. Her mother told police Malone never made it to her apartment and did
not show up to work at Ikea in Red Hook on Sunday. Her last known contact was a text message to her roommate. Malone texted him to let him know she needed him to let her into the apartment because they only have one set of keys, cops said. Investigators told NY1 that she texted him from the bus.

Accused. Ariel Castro posted on Facebook about ‘real women’ Bail for accused Cleveland kidnapper Ariel Castro was set at $8 million on Thursday in the decadelong abduction ordeal of three young women and a child, who was conceived and born in captivity. In what now appears to be a chilling premonition, Ariel Castro posted a message on Facebook about “real women” and
how they should handle the breakdown of a relationship when a child is involved. Castro appears to have joined Facebook on Feb. 18 of this year — less than three months before his name would make worldwide headlines as the accused abductor of three missing women.

NAME CALLING
Here is a riddle that is politically incorrect in almost every conceivable way: When is a Hispanic not a Hispanic? You can insert your own inappropriate response here, but the real answer appears to be: whenever former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson decides so. I was surprised this week when Richardson, a staunch and highly visible Hispanic Democrat, suggested that Republican Sen. Ted Cruz from Texas can’t be “defined as a Hispanic” because he sees the matter of illegal immigration differently than the governor might wish. Let’s review: Cruz’s father is Cuban. He came to this country and built a life for his family, and his son openly talks about his admiration for his immigrant father. Cruz was freely elected in a state with a huge Hispanic population. And while his approach to immigration reform does not jibe with the
Quoted
“We’ve heard others apply what we might call ‘the Richardson test’ before. Liberal critics have called Barack Obama not ‘black enough’ because his policies toward the poor have disappointed them.” White House’s, it is also far from the door slamming policy that Richardson and others like to suggest Republicans want. We’ve heard others apply what we might call “the Richardson test” before. Liberal critics have called Barack Obama not “black enough” because his policies toward the poor have disappointed them.

conservative political outlook. And on it goes. What’s really troubling Richardson, I suspect, is that Cruz is emerging as something of a Republican champion; someone who, unlike many in the GOP lately, seems able to excite attention and grab headlines. In other words, Cruz is doing what any group … indeed, all of us living in a democracy … ought to admire: He is making his voice heard and taking part in representative government. Whether you agree with his politics or not is beside the point. Richardson later suggested he was misunderstood. Maybe so. But he could have easily said, “Ted Cruz is not my kind of Hispanic.” That would have been fair enough and would have conveyed his point just fine. Instead, the phrase he chose probably told people more about Bill Richardson than it did about his target.

Blipp this!
Daft Punk is not playing at my house, but R. Kelly is Rumors ran rampant that Phoenix would include their childhood friends Daft Punk in their Coachella performances. But they had done that already, in 2010 at Madison Square Garden. The band didn’t want to give in to predictable expectations, but they also didn’t want to disappoint by not having a special guest. After last year’s Virtual 2Pac, they knew the bar had been set high for special guests. Their solution was to do exactly what nobody would ever consider: Ask R. Kelly. To hear Mars’ account of what happened behind the scenes, visit www. metro.us or just Blipp here. (If you don’t know what Blipping is, turn to page 27 and see the crossword.)

Phoenix: ‘Something bigger than music’ Still rising. The French band keep moving from a mess to the masses. The word that Thomas Mars sings the most on the new Phoenix album is “alone.” (We stopped counting after 25 times!) It might seem strange that with such solitary subject matter, these four guys from the French suburbs are reaching the biggest audiences of their career. “When you make an album, you have to be disconnected,” says Mars. “You have to make this for yourself. And then when you’re on tour, you feel something else suddenly. It’s distinctively different.” To witness the band translating the songs from the April-released “Bankrupt!” to the masses, this distinct difference is striking. While Mars sings “I’d rather be alone” on the refrain of lead-off single, “Entertainment,” he’s jumping into the audience and demonstrating that he’d actually rather connect on a universal note with people who have obviously felt the same way. While the band looked quite comfortable headlining Coachella last month, playing for about 180,000

The album
The past is always present “Bankrupt!” feels very much like a summer album. The dense layers provide new discoveries on repeat listens; it’s a sunshine soundtrack to make a mundane summer job less mundane, with melodies ready for group singing in the car with your friends. The sound is decidedly more synth-based than the guitar-heavy tracks that put the band on the map with 2009’s “Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix.” There’s also
people over two weekends, this bigger stage show has not been without its growing pains. “It’s a discovery for us,” says Mars. “When we started, we weren’t sure of the possibility to make those monster shows. Then, at some point, after a few experiments, we saw some sort of poetic value or some kind of Roman Empire quality to it: something grand, something bigger than music.” But part of how Phoenix achieve this grand scale is by maintaining intimacy. Mars says he has been going into the audience to sing since the band began, before the new millennium. “There have been a few shows I remember when we played, when there was not even a stage,” he says. “We were the same height as the crowd and you show that you’re really immersed into it. So I think that’s something that we miss — and we try to always have that, even to this day.” On tour
a feel of the music of the band members’ youth, as they steal a drum sound directly from Prince. But this is definitely not retro music. “There’s a lot of late ’70s analog keyboard and the digital keyboards from the ’80s and drum machines,” explains Mars. “And then there’s all the new stuff. But the thing is, all this new stuff, they don’t really have color. They will all sound like something from 2010 or 2013 in a few years. But right now they don’t have any identity.”
‘This is show time, this is show time,’ at the Apollo Phoenix play a sold out show at the Apollo on Monday, but there are still tickets for the band’s show at the Susquehanna Bank Center in Camden, N.J., on Sunday. Phoenix is also part of the Made in America Festival. “BANKRUPT!” IS AVAILABLE NOW.

SUMMER MUSIC GUIDE With his new Fisher-Price CD “A Father’s Lullaby,” Nick Lachey found a way to combine two of his greatest loves: music and his son, Camden. But his latest solo project and his 8-month-old son aren’t the only projects keeping him busy these days: He’s also readying for a summer tour with the reunited 98 Degrees, hopping state-to-state with Boyz II Men and New Kids on the Block on an arena tour appropriately dubbed “The Package.” And on top of that, 98 Degrees have just released a new album — their first in more than a decade. We caught up with Lachey before he started tour rehearsals. We hear you’re gonna bring Camden on the road with you this summer. Yeah. He changes so much and I don’t want to miss a moment, so selfishly I’m gonna bring him. You’re not the only dad on this tour. What’s that scene gonna be like? Between the three bands on this tour, we have about 30 kids combined. There’s gonna be quite a few kids and quite a few nannies

NICK LACHEY The 98 Degrees crooner is back on the road with the boys, plus singing lullabies.
THE FULL ‘PACKAGE’ running around. Was it easy to pick up where 98 Degrees left off? It was really natural, and it almost seemed like it was yesterday. That felt good. … It’s been a lot of fun — and as long as we’re having fun, the rest is easy. Will you be showing off any new dance moves? We will be dancing. Some people call it dancing. Other people may call it convulsing. And will we see some shirtless singers? I would go out on a limb and say at some point,
someone’s shirt will be off. We’re very competitive, so if everyone else is taking shirts off, we gotta show what we got. So it sounds like kids’ music isn’t the be-all, end-all of your career. [Laughs] If that were the case, I’d be fine with that. I loved making that record. But no, it’s cool to be able to do different things. Do you play your lullaby album for Camden? When I was recording it, I’d bring home demos and test them out to see which ones he responded to. But now I just sing the live
version to him. Is bedtime is your favorite part of the day with him? I do put him down sometimes, but a lot of times Vanessa puts him down and I wake him up. We’ll have the morning together. I change him and get him his bottle. We eat breakfast and hang out. It’s like the guys’ time.

The difficult-to-play ‘Gatsby’ Interview. Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan talk about the challenge of playing opaque characters. What Baz Luhrmann did to F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby” has dominated reports on the film: the 3-D, the rap music, the digital busyness of a film about flappers and pre-Depression excess. But there are still actors, still characters they had to play — ones who have been debated over the novel’s ninedecade existence. “Everyone has an interpretation of who these characters are,” says Leonardo DiCaprio, who underlines the Robert Redford comparisons further by playing mystery millionaire Jay Gatsby, as Redford did in the film adaptation from 1974. “The ‘Gatsby’ I remember reading when I

sy, but he still staring at the green light [across the bay]. He’s finally got her in his arms, but he’s still searching for this thing he thinks will complete him. That’s the Gatsby I was incredibly excited about playing as an actor.” Carey Mulligan had similar difficulties with Daisy, the trophy wife, married to wealthy cad Tom (Joel Edgerton), with whom Gatsby is obsessed. “There are holes in Daisy’s character, and she disappears for a long time,” Mulligan explains. “Often she’s not saying what she means, or acts quite erratically. There’s quite a lot to fill in, just to play her consistently.” Readers have to wonder which is the real Daisy: Is she a mere trophy wife? Or is she smarter than she lets on? “She was a product of her time. When I defend Daisy, I always say she came from a family that would demand she marry for money. If she didn’t, that would have been scandalous.”
Though Luhrmann worked to sculpt Fitzgerald’s novel for today’s audiences, the novel has much to say about our own era. “It’s a book that talks about the great opulence in America during that time period, and the idea that the future is endless and we can keep consuming and living the way we do without any consequences,” DiCaprio says. It’s timeless in the sense that it’s an 80-year-cycle. We encountered it again in our modern era. It’s not an American novel in that regard; it’s something that’s worldwide. Fitzgerald is commenting on society and human nature and the great pursuit of wealth.”

A Tyler Perry film with no Tyler Perry “Peeples� is an unabashed “Meet The Parents� ripoff, where Ben Stiller becomes the amateur child entertainer/psychologist Wade Walker (Craig Robinson). He’s successful enough, but not in the same league as the family of socalled “chocolate Kennedys� from whom girlfriend Grace (Kerry Washington) comes. Robert De Niro’s overprotective CIA hawk becomes the less cartoonish but still implacably hostile family patriarch Virgil (David Alan Grier), a model of Hamptons affluence. Wade follows Grace to an annual family gathering, gatecrashing his way through a series of copied “Parents� blunders: setting accidental fires and being suspected of drug use through no fault of his own. Producer Tyler Perry’s name may be on the product, but it lacks his usual

admonitions about going to church and reconnecting with family as the first steps toward any reconciliation. Predictable comic obstacles are thrown at Wade, who unfailingly causes disaster throughout the first half before going on to charm everyone, save unamused dad. There are lessons about
tolerance and inclusiveness when gay children come out of the closet and about not judging on appearances. For clarity’s sake, Grier recaps some of these points at the end in song.
VADIM RIZOV
letters@metro.us
Recent events have shown that horrific events can bring out the best in people. The gory thriller “Aftershock� goes the other way. It’s a portrait of humanity if not at its most base, then close to it. Co-writer and co-producer Eli Roth co-stars as an American in Chile. When a massive earthquake hits, he and the cast find themselves fighting for survival in a collapsed society, where freed convicts roam the street, hungry for scantily clad victims. Roth and his fellow screenwriters don’t stop
there. They keep hitting our protagonists with one unspeakable horror after another, while slowly picking off its cast. Seeming protagonists perish earlier than expected, and it soon becomes apparent that no one is safe, possibly not even the virginal prude classically designated as the surviving Final Girl. The film, helmed by Nicolas Lopez, lacks his craft: It’s murky, technically slapdash and soon runs out of novel story twists. By the time one characters is revealed to be a secret psychopath — whoops! — the “hilarious� downer ending couldn’t come sooner. MATT PRIGGE

The dangers of putting ‘Great’ in a movie title
Baz Luhrmann. The OTT filmmaker calms down a bit for F. Scott Fitzgerald — and is still wrong. Review ‘The Great Gatsby’ Director. Baz Luhrmann Stars. Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan Rating. PG-13
•••••
It’s both tragic and nastily enjoyable when people who don’t understand literary classics turn them into films. The funniest part about Baz Luhrmann’s amusingly inappropriate 3-D-plus-Jay-Z film of “The Great Gatsby” comes right at the end. The judgmental but ineffectual blank slate Nick (Tobey Maguire) has written a book about the film’s events. He writes the title: “Gatsby.” But a sentimental mood overtakes him — the loss of a man (Leonardo DiCaprio) who stood out amid a society of cads. So Nick adds “The Great.” Fitzgerald was being sincere? Baz couldn’t even hit the CliffsNotes? This
capper is the film’s dumbest, forehead-slappiest moment. The rest is braindrained and simplified, but almost disappointingly inoffensive — even with Bryan Ferry’s jazz-tinged renditions of rap songs blasting as flappers guzzle martinis. Luhrmann’s excess, as Luhrmann will tell you, is almost defensible when portraying a Rolling Twenties bacchanalia. Luhrmann mostly keeps a lid on it. This isn’t a disaster. The 3-D isn’t overdone. The technology is mostly used on F. Scott Fitzgerald’s actual words, which periodically float on to the screen when they’re uttered — as though Luhrmann could possess

their meaning by literally throwing it on the image, in comin’-at-ya 3-D. He can’t — in part because he seems to think of “Gatsby” as a sad love story, with Daisy (Carey Mulligan) simply kept from Gatsby by mean Tom (Joel Edgerton). Luhrmann’s
version is faithful to the narrative, but fails to understand its complexities. Riotous, time-warp parties and all, he plays it straight — or as straight as one can when the actors always look like they’re standing in front of green screen. Every image looks arti-

ficial, and the actors are directed to act like animatronic versions of themselves. Only DiCaprio, in the role he was born to play, makes it out alive.

Hold your boos
Repertory. A new program looks at great (or at least defensible) ďŹ lms jeered at Cannes.
The Cannes Film Festival, long the planet’s most prestigious festival, begins on Wednesday, and only one thing can be said for sure: Something (or some things) will get booed. In 2011, Terrence Malick’s “The Tree of Life� was met with jeers at its first screening. That’s not a blemish: It went on to win the Palme d’Or, the fest’s top prize. Besides, it has good company, going deep into the festival’s six-decade history. This trend is celebrated in the most amusing film program in awhile, “Booed at Cannes,� which runs at Brooklyn’s BAMcinematek through May 23.
Jean Eustache’s “The Mother and the Whore� was unaccountably booed at Cannes. / NEW YORKER, PHOTOFEST
Fifteen films are rounded up, some more shocking than others. It’s one thing for David Cronenberg’s (not the Oscar-winning) “Crash� (May 17) or David Lynch’s “Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me� (May 11) to get vocally trounced. It’s another to imagine Michelangelo Antonioni and cast fleeing the theater after “L’Avventura� (which won the Jury Prize) got the same treatment. That film is missing from the slate, but
luckily another Antonioni, “L’Eclisse� (May 10), got the same treatment. And who hates “Taxi Driver� (May 18) or Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s 2005 Thai wonder “Tropical Malady� (May 23) that much? As anywhere, it’s only a handful of loud boors who make the racket. But that’s all it takes, and over the years — particularly once the awards ceremonies became televised — it’s become a cliche.

Tube and watch 82-yearold Robert Bresson get heckled as he accepts an award for his final work, “L’Argent� (May 19). Ditto David Lynch (again!) as he won for “Wild at Heart� (May 11), and Maurice Pialat for “Under the Sun of Satan.� With his typical gruffness, the French filmmaker calmly retorted to his detractors, “If you don’t like me, I don’t like you either,� then pounded an up-yours fist. At least it won something. Federico Fellini’s 1990 swan song “The Voice in the Moon� (May 16) seemed to disappear off the face of the earth. Featuring an unaccountably reignedin Roberto Benigni — plus a crazed dance scene set to Michael Jackson — it’s a problematic but fascinating film. But how many know that? It became the director’s last, and never scored an American release.
“Wild at Heart,� with Nicolas Cage in a snakeskin jacket, won the Palme d’Or. / SAMUEL GOLDWYN COMPANY, PHOTOFEST
Others have trickier histories. Jean Eustache’s 1973 epic “The Mother and the Whore� (May 12) has become a classic, yet eluded home video since a VHS release in the 1990s. Luis Bunuel’s “El� (May 20) and Francois Truffaut’s “The Soft Skin� (May 22) — backlashed for being a step down from “Jules
and Jim,� a Cannes toast in 1962 — have too been hard to see. With Cannes looming, perhaps we can imagine a future iteration of this program resuscitating this year’s opening film, “The Great Gatsby.�

THE WORD Dorothy Robinson’s take on the world of gossip DOROTHY ROBINSON @dorothyatmetro dorothy.robinson@metro.us
David Bowie dressed as Jesus walks into a bar .... and causes an uproar. Church leaders have reacted angrily to the release of a video to accompany Bowie’s latest single, “The Next Day,” in which he poses as Jesus in a bar. Lord Carey, the former Archbishop of Canterbury — the global head of the Anglican church — said the video was “juvenile” and urged Christians to “rise above it.”
is correct, it will be 267 times bigger than last year,” Harris said in the most adorable press release ever. “Oh wait. No. That can’t ... hold on ... carry the one ... I’m awful at math. But rest assured, the show will rock.”
But he also couldn’t resist having a dig: “I doubt that Bowie would have the courage to use Islamic imagery — I very much doubt it.” The video contains a sequence of Bowie in a bar in robes, striking a Christ-like pose. Gary Oldman and Marion Cotillard are also featured. Oldman is dressed as a priest, while Cotillard is in her underwear, with blood spurting from two wounds in her hands.

Pete Wentz had a pill problem. The 33-year-old bassist for Fall Out Boy (and the ex-husband of Ashlee Simpson) opens up in a new issue of Rolling Stone about how he sunk into a pill addiction after Fall Out Boy went on hiatus in 2009. The rocker says he abused Xanax and Klonopin. “I was probably physically and mentally addicted,” Wentz reveals. “It started from insomnia and anxiety from flying, then it spiraled.”
He continues, “I felt like a loser already. I’d basically gone from being the guy in Fall Out Boy to being the guy, who, like, hangs out all day. I didn’t see how I’d ever come out on the other side.” Things only got worse when Wentz split from Simpson. “I was scared of everything. I thought there were always people listening to me,” he says. “Like, I had my house searched for bugs. It was crazy.” Wentz says he is clean now, thanks to work with a therapist and learning to be a better father to his son Bronx, 4.

Alice Lowe and Steve Oram play murderers on a lovely English caravanning holiday in Ben Wheatley’s “Sightseers.” / BEN WHEATLEY
Pitch-black comedy. Here’s a lovely English holiday movie about remorseless serial killers. It begins innocently enough. Tina (Alice Lowe), a mousy woman-child, heads off with new boyfriend Chris (Steve Oram) for a caravanning holiday about the British Isles. It would be lovely and pastoral, reminiscent of Mike Leigh’s English vacation classic “Nuts in May” — were it not for the vaguely ominous music, and if Tina’s mother, with whom she lives, hadn’t just informed her she was an accident. Chris seems off, too, getting a bit too ticked at a remorseless litterbug. It won’t be long until Chris accidentally backs over this defiler of nature with his car. It does genuinely seem like an accident, this first murder. The rest will be more conscious. It turns out that Chris, whose traditionally English smile can melt into a hungry scowl, has a thing for bloodily dispatching those who irritate him. A snooty writer, out walking his dog as dawn breaks,
gets his cranium collapsed with a rock, only for being a snooty writer. Tina initially seems too insecure to do anything, but happens upon her lover’s secret. She soon finds herself happily complicit, even ranking up her own numbers. “Sightseers” could, and probably should, be redundant, as it relentlessly juxtaposes quaint, English tourist traps — like a pencil museum, which exists — with unspeakable, nasty gore. Director Ben Wheatley is a viral videomaker — his biggest hit, “A Cunning Trick,” features a dude leaping a car before being mowed over by another. Now, he’s a genre-hopping features director, whose main theme seems to be head trauma. He’s hot off the whatzit horror-thriller “Kill List,” whose sights included a man’s head met repeatedReview ‘Sightseers’ Director: Ben Wheatley Stars: Alice Lowe, Steve Oram Rating: R
•••••
ly with a hammer. Here, Wheatley cuts out the penetration if not the aftermath, briefly slipping in a shot of a pestering rambler’s face turned into a Picasso. But there’s a shape to the madness, and a strangely keen insight into early relationships. Chris and Tina don’t quite know each other. But they discover they share a certain kink (which leads to another kink, with homicide sometimes ending with noisy sex). The funniest joke of this darkly funny film is that Chris and Tina are not soulmates, if only because she’s an indiscriminate killer, whereas he’s at least semi-discriminate. There are a lot of jokes about Tina killing completely innocent people, which actually makes the film more tolerable, even weirdly moral. A truly cynical film would have found reasons for their victims to be murdered. Here, a completely decent guy who’s invented a ridiculous plastic cocoon on wheels for sleeping during bike trips gets killed for no reason. What’s funnier than that?

Start her day with a smile Recipe. Whip up this classic for Mother’s Day brunch. Challah bread, like brioche, has an eggy richness that lends itself well to this classic breakfast preparation. While many French toast recipes use cream and an excess of sugar, this lighter version uses whole milk flecked with orange zest and a strawberry-orange topping to add flavor without being too heavy or cloying.
Challah French Toast with Strawberries For the strawberries: Hull and slice the strawberries ¼ inch thick and place in a medium bowl. Finely zest the orange (you should have about 1 tablespoon).
1
Add half of the zest to the bowl of strawberries. Set the other half aside for the French toast.

Slice ¼ inch off the top and bottom of the orange and set it flat on a work surface. Using a paring knife, follow the curve of the orange and slice off any remaining peel and white pith. Working over the bowl of strawberries, slice between the membranes to release the segments or supremes. Squeeze the juice from the membranes, and discard the membrane and peels.

Add the sugar to the bowl and stir to combine. Let sit at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the strawberries have released some of their juices, at least 15 minutes or up to one hour. Meanwhile, prepare the French toast. For the French toast:

‘Nikolai’ translates to nothing Theater review. This play about 1940s Russians is never meaningful. Richard Nelson’s “Nikolai and the Others,” at the Mitzi Newhouse, is a play waiting to happen. Unfortunately, it never does. Like the television classic “Seinfeld,” it’s a show about nothing — except that “Seinfeld” was keenly aware of its limitations and used them to hilarious advantage. “Nikolai” just flounders. On a farm outside Westport, Conn., in 1948,

a large group of Russian emigres, including such luminaries as George Balanchine (Michael Cerveris) and Igor Stravinsky (John Glover) has gathered to honor Sergey Sudeikin (Alvin Epstein), the first husband of Stravinsky’s wife, Vera (Blair Brown).
The huge ensemble congregates in “Nikolai and the Others,” playing now at Lincoln Center. / PAUL KOLNIK
Although the Wisconsin senator had not yet begun his witch-hunt, there’s a vague scent of McCarthyism in the air, or at least wariness of xenophobia. Various guests turn to Nikolai Nabakov (Stephen Kunken) for help because of his connections. Every-
body knows “Nicky,” and Nicky has some sort of official tie to the U.S. government — including the ability to get funding for cultural projects. But it’s hard to get a clear read on where Nicky’s loyalties lie. In fact, it’s hard to get a clear read on anything,
due at least in part to the 18-member cast, which often travels en masse. “Nikolai” is as much about Balanchine’s philandering as Nicky’s bona fides or the myriad other snippets that populate the work. Nelson seems to have bitten off more than
he can chew: The sheer number of bodies onstage does him in, despite the generally fluid orchestration by director David Cromer.

Don’t build It’s not the a shrine skin, it’s to bomber perception Re: “All deserve a proper burial” (Metro, May 9) “I’m not sure why Tsarnaev’s final resting place is such an issue. ... What more do we want from him?” says one of your readers. I, for one, want certainty that his “final resting place” does not become a place of pilgrimage for murderous religious bigots. The way to be sure is to give him the same treatment as Osama bin Laden. In my book Tsarnaev is not “entitled” to more; he is, I suggest, entitled to precisely nothing. I agree that he “is someone’s son, nephew, father etc.” I am sorry for them, but not sorry enough to support a “proper burial.”
Re: “Metro’s not doing girls any favors” (Metro, May 8) Letter writer Bruce Caley IS the problem. Our puritanical inheritance leads to a cultural belief that ties nudity to sexuality. Suggesting that too much skin is sexual, so skin needs to be covered up, is wrong, and leads to the fetishization and objectification of our bodies. We can either teach our kids the difference between nudity, sensuality and sexuality, or we can all adopt the burka. GEOFFREY PALMER, VIA E-MAIL

Skins won’t change Redskins owner Dan Snyder blasted those looking to change the name of his franchise. The nickname has been put under increasing pressure to change, due to its insensitivity. “We’ll never change the name,” Snyder told USA Today.
Islanders routed by Penguins in Game 5 NHL playoffs. Goalie Evgeni Nabokov is pulled by Isles in third period during horrible outing. A season in which the Islanders began to flex long unused muscles is one loss away from ending. The Islanders were shut out by Tomas Vokoun and the Penguins, 4-0, in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals at the CONSOL Energy Center. Pittsburgh leads the best-of-seven series, 3-2. Game 6 is set for May 11 at the Nassau Coliseum. The game was alarmingly reminiscent of the 5-0 loss in Game 1, in
which the Islanders were not aggressive against the Eastern Conference’s top seed. Pittsburgh finished with more hits (33-27) and more blocked shots (14-8) in a game in which Penguins head coach Dan Bylsma made personnel changes. Along with replacing goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury with Vokoun, Bylsma added Tyler Kennedy and Joe Vitale to the lineup in an attempt to ice a heavier, more physical team. Kennedy opened the scoring at 7:25 of the second period, with Douglas Murray adding a second just 1:22 later. Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang had the other two goals.

What went wrong
1
Tale of two goalies — Much of the series has been spent critiquing the terrible play of the two goaltenders. Marc-Andre Fleury was yanked after allowing six goals in Game 4 and Tomas Vokoun was a revelation in Game 5. Evgeni Nabokov, on the other hand, was yanked after allowing four goals.
2
Gonna get physical — Not only were the Penguins more physical overall, with more hits, they also took an astounding, 37-21, edge in faceoffs won. The Penguins also got five opportunities on the power play, though they only converted on one of them.

The stars come out — While John Tavares lost 76 percent of his faceoffs and missed on all six shot attempts, the duo of Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby stepped up for Pittsburgh. Crosby had both a goal and an assist, while Malkin provided the helper on Douglas Murray’s goal.

The Yankees endured a two-hour rain delay, but they still picked up a 3-1 win in the rubber match of an interleague series with the Rockies. CC Sabathia got the start, and was pitching well, but after the long delay he came out after four innings. He allowed just one hit and one run. Adam Warren came in after the delay and pitched 1 2/3 innings to get his first win. Robinson Cano picked up the 1,500th hit of his career before the delay and then added a solo home run in the sixth. Vernon Wells also had two hits and an RBI. Mariano Rivera pitched a perfect ninth inning to pick up his 13th save of the season.
