1Prospect Heights residents arefrantically trying to stop a cen-ter for suspended high schoolstudents from opening in Sep-tember, right next to a popularplayground.

The center, once a NewYork City Department of Edu-cation office building, willhouse two academies for stu-dents serving both long- andshort-term suspensions.

This site, at 355 Park Place,is one of 38 around the city andwill provide instruction andcounseling for the students.

As many as 70 students willattend the school. The kidshave been suspended for peri-ods ranging from 30 days to upto a year.

Sexual harassment, bully-ing, bomb threats and drug

and weapon possession are allgrounds for suspension, ac-cording to the New York Cityschool district discipline code.

Residents say the highschool students would not mixwell with the parents, nanniesand young children who flockto Underhill Playground onthe same corner.

“It seems like a recipe fortragedy,” said Jason Orans, afilm producer who often takeshis 2-year-old to the play-ground. “The community isvery, very alarmed.”

Because the playground,described by one babysitter inthe area as “very diverse,” isthe only public space in anotherwise residential area,Orans said the suspendedteenagers might all hang outthere and get into fights.

“They’re going to be miser-able when they come out atthe end of the day, and maybethey’re going to take it out onthis neighborhood,” Oranssaid.

But Marisa Cazanave, ateacher who works at aProspect Heights school, dis-agreed.

She said the concerns areoverblown.

“They’re afraid of whatthey don’t know, what theythink might happen,”Cazanave said of some in theneighborhood.

Marge Feinberg, a spokes-woman for the DOE, said stag-gered dismissals will preventthe entire student body fromexiting simultaneously. Staffmembers will escort studentsto subway stops.

The center is scheduled toopen on the first day of schoolthis year, Sept. 6.

Space notadequate forstudents?Others worry the space isinappropriate for educatingstudents, saidCouncilwoman LetitiaJames, who represents theneighborhood.

Though students will beprovided with lunch, thebuilding will not have akitchen. There will also bean exercise room and anarea for a library.

Prospect Heightsresidents remember a fardifferent neighborhood just20 years ago. Murder in thearea is down almost 90 per-cent since 1990, rape isdown 77 percent and rob-bery is down 85 percent, ac-cording to statistics fromthe NYPD.

Today, instead of beingknown for crime and pover-ty, the neighborhood is cel-ebrated for its sprawlinggreen space, brownstonearchitecture and the soon-to-be-completed BarclaysCenter, located nearby.

Renee DeVesty was 19 years oldwhen she was raped by her bestfriend’s husband and anotherman she knew and trusted dur-ing a camping trip.

“I shut down,” said DeVesty,who gave Metro permission topublish her name. “I was afraidof them. I thought it was myfault. I decided not to tell any-one and pretend it never hap-pened.”

But DeVesty was forced toconfront the horror of beingraped when, two months later,she found out she was preg-nant. A Catholic, she struggledwith the decision, but opted toabort the pregnancy.

Now 49 and living in Syra-cuse, N.Y., she said she felt sickto her stomach when she heardRep. Todd Akin say yesterday a

woman’s body can preventpregnancy in cases of “legiti-mate rape.”

“If it’s a legitimate rape, thefemale body has ways to try toshut that whole thing down,”Akin said in an interview.

“There is no way someonewho has to go through thathorror of being raped can legiti-mately in their head think,‘Now I am going to tell my bodynot to become pregnant,’” shesaid.

Akin has since apologized forthe comments, saying he “mis-spoke,” but the outcry has pun-dits speculating that he willlikely withdraw from the Mis-souri Senate race.

“To say it’s slim that it hap-pens or to make them feel thatthey did something to createthe pregnancy — that they did-n’t shut down their bodies — isre-victimizing them again,” De-

Vesty said of victims of sexabuse. “I think he should be ex-pelled from the running.”

She’s not alone in that senti-ment.

Officials from the New Yorklocations of prominent organi-zations like Planned Parent-hood and the National Organi-zation for Women expressedoutrage over Akin’s remarks.

DeVesty said she stronglydisagreed with Akin’s

comments.“Where do we have

control? Where is our say?”DeVesty asked. “Theinsinuation that it doesn’thappen or we have somecontrol over it isunacceptable.”

Late yesterday, rumorswere circulating that theGOP was preparing for Akinto announce his decision tostep down from theelection, though he had yetto confirm the claim.

Where are America’s most Honest Tea releases results yesterday of first-ever National Honesty

Index Boston, Chicago and Las Vegas all more honest than good oldNew York Within the five boroughs, Brooklyn is the least honest by far

Staten Island is more honestthan Queens. Manhattan ismore honest than Staten Is-land.

And Brooklyn is the leasthonest borough of all.

Those are the findings of aninformal marketing “study”done by Honest Tea, the sweettea company owned by Coca-Cola. From Aug. 8 through Aug.19, Honest Tea erected morethan 50 unmanned pop-upkiosks in 30 cities across thecountry, including several inNew York.

The stands were stockedwith drinks, and a jar askingfor $1, and payment was basedon the honor system. The com-pany wanted to see if peoplewould pay when, ostensibly,nobody was watching. But digi-

tal tracking kept tabs on whogave and how often.

And, perhaps not surprising-ly, many New Yorkers werehappy to give up a buck in ex-change for a drink.

New York tied Portland, Ore.,and Tempe, Ariz., for a meagersixteenth place in the survey.

Boston, Chicago and even SinCity have more honest residentsthan the five boroughs.

Oakland, Calif., and Salt LakeCity, Utah tied for the numberone spot, with 100 percent ofpeople there happily giving adollar.

Nationwide, 93 percent ofpeople were honest. Women are

more honest than men, with 95percent of women leaving a dol-lar compared to 91 percent ofthe male gender. Redheads aremore honest than blonds andbrunettes.

GOP distance themselvesfrom Akin rape remarkMitt Romney and the chair-man of the Republican plat-form committee worked todistance their party from aMissouri Senate candidate’sremark that “legitimate rape”rarely leads to pregnancy.

The comment by ToddAkin, 65, a congressman whois running to oust one-termU.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, aDemocrat, quickly went viralon the Internet, sparking out-rage from women’s groups and

Democrats and prompting himto issue an e-mailed retraction.

Romney sought to separatehis campaign from the re-marks, telling National Re-view Online that Akin’s com-ments were “insulting, inex-cusable, and, frankly, wrong,”the former Massachusetts gov-ernor said. “Like millions ofother Americans, we foundthem to be offensive,” he said.

Akin’s comments are receiv-ing attention in a campaign

where Republicans are seen asbeing hostile toward women.In the interview, Akin saidabortion shouldn’t be allowedin rape cases, in part becausepregnancy was unlikely to re-sult. “From what I understandfrom doctors, that’s reallyrare,” said Akin, who hasserved in the U.S. House since2001. “If it’s a legitimate rape,the female body has ways totry to shut that whole thingdown.” BLOOMBERG

Tony Scott jumped to his death from the Vincent ThomasBridge in San Pedro, Calif.

Investigators sought clues yes-terday to what promptedBritish-born filmmaker TonyScott to take his own life in LosAngeles, while much of Holly-wood focused on an uncon-firmed news report that he wassuffering from brain cancer.

Scott, director of such block-buster films as “Top Gun” and“Beverly Hills Cop II,” jumpedto his death on Sunday from asuspension bridge over Los An-geles Harbor, leaving behind asuicide note in his office and alist in his car of people to con-tact, the Los Angeles CountyCoroner’s Office said.

Medical examiners werescheduled on Monday to per-form an autopsy on Scott’sbody, which was recoveredfrom the harbor nearly threehours after he jumped in, Assis-tant Chief Coroner Ed Winter

said.Results of the exam will

likely be kept confidential untiltoxicology studies and othertests are completed, he said.

Winter said he had no infor-mation about the accuracy ofan ABC News report, citing anunnamed source close to Scott,that said the filmmaker suf-fered from inoperable braincancer. REUTERS

bothering individuals whoshare those spaces, accord-ing to ScienceDaily.com. Dr.Tali Hatuka, who alsoconducted the study, saidthat smartphones give theillusion of “private bubbles”around their users, allowingthem to feel as though noone might be listening in totheir conversation.

“American Idol” hasn’t had anytrouble replacing formerjudges Steven Tyler and JenniferLopez with high-profile stars.Shortly after Mariah Careysigned on, it looks like fellowprofessional diva Nicki Minajwill take a seat at the judges’table as well.

“I’m not sure the deal iscompletely done yet, but yes,she is definitely doing it,” ashow insider tells Us Weekly.“A few more slight things to

sign off on but it is happen-ing.”

Our hearts go out to thehair, makeup and pillow-fluff-ing crews at “Idol” during thisdifficult time.

As long as theystay in JerseyAfter Snooki and JWoww could-n’t find a town to shoot their“Jersey Shore” spin-off in, Man-

chester generously took one forthe team. But now, neighborsin the low-key Jersey suburbare complaining and attempt-ing to stop production of“Snooki & JWoww,” reportsTMZ.

We feel you, Manchester,but as reluctant “JerseyShore” experts, we thinkyou’re overreacting. Thesedays, Snooks is about one Yan-kee candle away from landinga Lifetime series.

Phyllis Dillerpasses away at 95 Comedian and actressPhyllis Diller died yesterdayat the age of 95 in LosAngeles. She had recentlysuffered a fall and injuredher hip, reports TMZ.Diller, who began hercareer in television in1952, frequentlycollaborated with BobHope and is credited withpaving the way for femalecomedians. She continuedto work until recently,making cameoappearances and

performing standup in2007 on “The TonightShow.” In 2005, Diller wasone of many comedians toput her spin — quitesuccessfully — on aninfamous dirty joke in“The Aristocrats.”

LaBeouf in the buffPopcorn darling ShiaLaBeouf might be in a littleover his head with his latestproject, avant-garde directorLars von Trier’s graphic“Nymphomaniac.”

“There’s a disclaimer atthe top of the script that ba-sically says, we’re all doingit for real,” LaBeouf tellsMTV.com of the film’s

many sex scenes. “Andeverything that is illegal,we’ll shoot in blurredimages, but other thanthat, everything is happen-ing. He’s like the most dan-gerous dude that I’ve evershowed up for. I’mterrified. I’m so terrified.”

You and everyone whomade it through “Transform-ers: Revenge of the Fallen,”Shia. You’re in good,terrified company.

Mike Birbiglia is some-thing of a comedicRenaissance man,dabbling in many

methods to produce laughter:film, theater, stand-up, radioand a book.

His 2010 memoir,“Sleepwalk with Me: and OtherPainfully True Stories,” hasbeen republished with a newforeword from Ira Glass for thewide release of his movie,“Sleepwalk with Me” (forwhich Glass was a co-producerand co-screenwriter).

Birbiglia shares traits withsome of today’s top comedians.He has Louis C.K.’s intrepidhonesty, without the intensecynicism toward relationships.He has Demetri Martin’s low-key personality and subtle de-livery. And he has JimGaffigan’s all-American ap-petite. (“I would marry pizza,but it would just be an elabo-rate ploy to eat her whole fami-ly at the reception,” Birbigliaquips.)

For Birbiglia fans, the bookdoesn’t contain too much newcontent, and that’s a blessingand a curse. Readers who are fa-miliar with Birbiglia’s two ap-pearances on “Comedy CentralPresents” and his extended spe-cial, “Mike Birbiglia: What IShould Have Said Was Nothing— Tales from My Secret PublicJournal,” will recognize the vastmajority of his popular jokes.However, Birbiglia followerswill enjoy seeing how jokes

translate from stand-up come-dy performances into text, andwhere Birbiglia places em-phases while telling them.

Although Birbiglia’s style isoften personal — sometimes

uncomfortably so — he gainsemotional traction with his au-dience by exploring his familialrelationships to a greater ex-tent than he has ever done instand-up.

Those unfamiliar withBirbiglia’s body of work can ex-pect depictions of awkward ex-periences from his childhoodand adulthood that most sanepeople would strain to repress.What’s best about Birbiglia isthat he looks his audiencesquare in the eye, and then pro-ceeds to detail his most embar-rassing memories, from hisfirst make-out session to his in-filtration of a NASCAR focusgroup in order to snag somefree cookies.

This is what makes“Sleepwalk with Me” so appeal-ing — it’s a no-holds-barredlook into the psyche of an aver-age guy, who, through his ownmodest nature, is exceptionallyfunny.

Mike Birbiglia’s make-out memories

Read the book that inspired the movie of the same title, which comes out this Friday The new edition has introduction by Ira Glass

KILLIAN [email protected]

Birbiglia enjoyed early literary success.

‘Bullet’ misses the markWith the subtlety of a stormtrooper and no urgency what-soever, “Bullet for Adolf,” atNew World Stages, takes itstime establishing itself as acomic whodunit. Written byWoody Harrelson and FrankieHyman, “Bullet” focuses onZach (Brandon Coffey), Clint(David Coomber), Dago-Czech(Lee Osorio) and Frankie (TylerJacob Rollinson): characterswrit large and played broad,reveling in their outrageous-ness but going nowhere fast.

Along with Shareeta (Mar-sha Stephanie Blake) and Jackie(Shamika Cotton), they attendBatina’s (Shannon Garland)birthday party. Her father, Jur-gen (Nick Wyman), shows thegroup a historic luger and, in apea-soup thick German accent,explains its connection to hisfather and Hitler. The pistol dis-appears as the lights go black.

The second-act mystery —who took the gun? — grounds“Bullet” somewhat, but Clint,Jurgen and Dago-Czech contin-ue to be cartoons. Jurgen, whoearlier extolled Hitler’s virtues,

such as introducing the two-week vacation, suddenly ac-knowledges that “Hitler is thewrong man.” Some charactersstart to seem like they’re madeof flesh and blood, but the com-edy remains two-dimensional.

Throughout the play, gener-ous use is made of video projec-tions. Too big and too loud,

they nonetheless capture thezeitgeist of the ’80s, when theplay takes place. It’s not a goodsign that the videos have morelife in them than the live playthat they’re supposed to sup-port.

JORDIN SPARKSKEEPS IT REAL

What was your frame of mindgoing into the audition processas an actress for the first time?Before I auditioned I was think-ing, “Whoever gets this part,it’s going to be really special.” Iwas reading it going, “This isgreat, this is really incredible.”And then at the same time Iwas like, “Well, I haven’tread very many scripts, sohow do I know the differ-ence between somethingthat’s great and some-thing that’s not?” Mymind-set when I went into audition was,“There’s a very realchance that you could-n’t get this part — butif you do, run with it.Just go, run with it,don’t question it.”That mind-set of “Imight not get it” is pret-ty mature and realistic.How do you get thatbalance?If we’re going to go wayback, my dad played foot-ball. And I’ve always kindof compared everything tothe sports world. Likethere’s always somebodywho’s going to be comingup who’s more talentedor faster or stronger orsomething like that.There’s always going to besomebody who’s waiting inthe wings to take your placeor sing right alongside you.So I always had that mind-setbecause of my dad, and I ap-plied that to “Idol” as well.

‘Idol’ chatter

How do you think MariahCarey will do as a judge on“American Idol”?

I’ve listened to MariahCarey since I was in mymother’s stomach, so I am ahuge fan of her and hervoice and her music. I feel

like Mariah started out prettyyoung and she’s grown up inthe spotlight and industry.She’s had her ups and downs,she’s had high-profilerelationships, she’s had all thisstuff happen, and I think on“Idol” you have such a hugeage range that she’s able tohit each thing that eachcontestant might come upwith. I’m excited to see whatshe does, and I’m also excitedto see who else they bring in.I feel like it’s been changingevery year so much that nowpeople are just used to seeingsomebody new come in.

The ‘Sparkle’ star and ‘American Idol’ champ tried to keep her expectations realistic when auditioning for her first film

“I’ve always kind ofcompared everythingto the sports world.Like there’s alwayssomebody who’sgoing to be comingup who’s moretalented or faster orstronger or somethinglike that.” SPARKS

ALICIA GBUR

Before the interview be-gins, something whiteand fluffy rushes by.“That’s Minnie, she’s

my dog,” Jordin Sparks offersapologetically. “She got into acup of coffee, so we want towatch her real quick for a lit-tle bit. She’s kind of walkingsideways slightly, but she’ll befine.” That’s just one morething for Sparks to keep trackof, as the “American Idol” winner launches her first ma-jor foray into acting with“Sparkle,” the girl-group dra-ma that has her going toe-to-toe with Whitney Houston.

When with RomeSinger starts a solo career with ‘Dedication,’ but he

says his true dedication will always be to Sublime What’s it going to be? Rome?Rome Ramirez? Rome WithoutSublime? The latter-day singerfor the So-Cal ska-punk veter-ans just released his solo debut,the “Dedication” EP, but whatto call his new band?

“How about just The Incredi-bly Handsome Rome,” Ramirezjokes. “[People will think] ‘Weneed to check out this incredi-bly handsome boy!’”

He laughs before continuingmore seriously.

“I have my best friends thatI’ve grown up with playing mu-sic on stage with me in theband,” he says of his solo proj-ect, which will likely be namedRome. “It’s awesome: Now I getthe chance to pass the torchdown to my friends. It’s themost beautiful gift to be able tooffer someone an opportunity.”

He should know, becausethat’s what Sublime did forhim.

“They took me around theworld, introduced me to amaz-ing people and showed megreat things,” he says. “I had allthis built-up inspiration.”

Ramirez will follow with afull-length record, but for now,he and Sublime co-founder,bassist Eric Wilson, are concen-trating on promoting last year’sSublime with Rome debut al-bum, “Yours Truly.”

Sublime’s original drummer,Bud Gaugh, opted out afterrecording the album; JoshFreese (who has played witheveryone from Guns N’ Roses toDevo) is behind the kit for now.

“Sublime will always be mymain priority,” adds Ramirez.“I’ll do my album around that. Idon’t want to rush this; it willbe how I want it, when I want it.Time is on my side.”

Rome won’t roamtoo far this summerRome’s solo songs speak tothe same sunny So-Calgrooves as Sublime’s, so it’sno wonder he fit easily into

much-loved frontmanBradley Nowell’s shoes.(Nowell died from a heroinoverdose in 1996.) But thesummer tour is all aboutSublime: “I’d love for fans tolove my music as much as

they love Sublime’s, but I doreally want to keep thedifference between [them]when the fans come out tosee Sublime. I really do wantto keep it separate and drawa line.”

research feature. It easily al-lows you to search online whilewriting and — the best part —footnote the paper with theclick of a button.

Bookrenter: Bookrenter.comcan actually help you in boththe financial and academicrealms. This is one of manynew sites that allows you torent the books you need on aper-semester basis for muchsmaller fees than purchasingthem at school bookstores.

Trello: For those annoyinggroup projects, when organi-zation is the hardest but mostimportant part of the assign-ment, use Trello to keep every-one on track. The tool uses aset of boards and cards to as-sign tasks to specific people.All the members can be awareof what others are working on.It also lets you set prioritiesand due dates for each task.Trello can be accessed fromyour laptop, iOS device orAndroid device.

Extra creditAnd just for good meas-ure, here’s another studyapp: Evernote Peek. Itturns your iPad’sSmartCover into a flash-card. No more stacks ofindex cards needed tomemorize those geomet-ric equations. It’savailable for free in theApp Store.

Dropbox: Group projects re-quire lots of file sharing.Instead of trying to passaround flash drives, head toDropbox. Dropbox lets youeasily upload anything fromvideo and audio files to slidepresentations and access itfrom anywhere. It’s also got agreat free mobile app.

If Dropbox’s upload limitsget you frustrated, CloudApphas a similar concept but of-fers unlimited uploads for filesunder 250 MB.

Rate My Professors: The first in-gredient to a great year is agood teacher, so check out RateMy Professors before schedul-ing classes. It works like Yelp,rating teachers on easiness,helpfulness, clarity and eventheir looks. Students can leavein-depth comments about theirexperiences in the class.

New York City’s ambitions tochallenge Silicon Valley as atechnology center are takingroot on a narrow isle in theEast River, where CornellUniversity is building a $2 bil-lion campus and startup incu-bator.

Manhattan’s RooseveltIsland will be home to a newengineering and applied sci-ence graduate school, part of abet that the next Apple couldbe born in the Big Apple. WestCoast companies are alreadyhelping lay the groundwork,with Google donating officespace to the project andFacebook hosting a“hackathon” to build buzz

with all-night programmingbinges.

“There is more interest inNew York as a potential techcenter than ever before,” saidGreg Pass, a former Twitter ex-ecutive who now works forthe new Cornell campus. “Asthe world becomes more tech-nological, the role of engi-neers will be become moresubstantial.”

beat out six competing bids tobuild the campus, includingone from Stanford University.A $350 million donation fromCornell graduate CharlesFeeney helped seal the univer-sity’s victory.

The project is meant to bol-ster job creation in the cityand generate 600 spinoff com-panies and $23 billion in eco-nomic activity over the next

three decades. Until theRoosevelt Island campusopens in 2017, it will run inManhattan’s Chelsea neigh-borhood, in space leased rent-free from Google.

The campus will offer pilotcourses this year and beginconducting master’s classes inthe latter part of 2013. Key tothe effort is enlisting technol-ogy companies, which will

give students a glimpse intotheir operations, DanHuttenlocher, dean of thecampus, said in an interview.Facebook, Google, eBay,Amazon and Twitter said theyintend to collaborate with thecampus.“You can almost namea company, and they’re veryexcited,” Huttenlocher said. BLOOMBERG/KATHLEENCHAYKOWSKI

That's why we cover kids with quality, affordable health insurance through Child Health Plus,

a New York State-sponsored health insurance program offered by Fidelis Care.

• If your child needs health insurance, Fidelis Care can help.• Almost every child up to age 19 in New York State is eligible!• And, we help members keep their health insurance each year.

To Fidelis Care, every child is an angel.

Quality Health Coverage. It’s Our Mission.Some children who had employer-based health insurance coverage within the past six months may be subject to a waiting period before they

can enroll in Child Health Plus. This will depend on your household income and the reason your children lost employer-based coverage.

When it comes tomaking the transi-tion from lazy sum-mer days to the

structure of school, parents ofspecial needs kids have specialconcerns. But no matter thechild, it all comes down toroutine in September.

“The biggest thing you cando to help any child adjust toback-to-school is get themback in a routine,” advisesKathy Palermo, program coor-dinator for the Green TreeSchool in Germantown, Penn.,which has been serving stu-dents with emotional disabili-ties, autism spectrum disor-ders and preschool develop-mental delays since 1957.

“Getting to bed earlier andgetting up earlier is really thebig one.”

Palermo suggests creating asmall book of family photosfor preschool-aged childrenwith special needs to bringalong to school with them. “Ifthey start getting upset atschool, they can look at it,”

she notes. Packing a familiarlunch or snack for your childand making sure all of theirnecessary school supplies arelaid out the night before class-es begin can also help smooththe way for a happy schoolday.

It also may help to do apractice visit. “Though theschool may be closed, at leastgo there and take a walkaround before school starts,”says Palermo. “If you knowthe bus route, perhaps takethem that way. If you can findout the schedule ahead oftime, go through it with yourchild. Teachers will do this aswell.”

Last but not least, don’t de-mand interaction as soon asyour child arrives home. “Givekids time to relax when theyget home,” Palermo advises.“And this goes for any kid:Don’t ask how was your day —ask something specific.”

Why familydinnertimematters

Studies show...

Research in The AmericanAcademy of Pediatrics foundthat kids who have regularfamily dinners experience alower incidence of obesity.Columbia University’s Na-tional Center on Addictionand Substance Abuse foundthat kids who eat family din-

Apart from providing an oppor-tunity to bond over a meal, sit-ting down in a semi-formal set-ting around a table and sharingdiscussion can prepare childrenfor school group settings andenhance social skills.

“It provides a model for so-cialization during eating. It canteach children manners andthey learn how to have a con-versation,” says Dr. Jessica Hoff-man, Ph.D., an associate profes-sor in the department of coun-seling and applied educationalpsychology at Bouve College ofHealth Sciences at Northeast-

ern University.“It’s an opportunity for chil-

dren to expand their vocabu-lary and speech skills,” she con-tinues. “When children listento parents and older siblingstalk about their day, or items inthe news, it helps develop lan-guage skills and to develop crit-ical perspectives.”

Having family dinners alsoprovides parents with an addi-tional tool to keep a check ontheir children’s progress atschool, and can be an impor-tant daily link to their chil-dren’s classroom.

“Family dinnertime is an op-portunity for parents to moni-tor what’s going on in theirchildren’s lives and spot anypossible academic problems,”adds Dr. Hoffman. But if the

booked a plane ticket yet, aroadtrip to Quebec can be theperfect getaway. Visiting thenation to our north is like a Eu-ropean vacation without thatpesky flight across the pond.

MontrealMontreal could be the most vi-brant, least intimidating city inNorth America. And it’s all inhow it’s mixed. Residential ar-eas sit in streets just behindmain thoroughfares, and main-stream shops sit on the sameblocks as secondhand stores,start-up art galleries and deca-dent nightlife destinations. Forthese reasons there’s no suchthing as a “bad area.” The city isin love with art and its artistsand constantly hosts citywidefestivals. From now throughSeptember, 15 different festi-vals are scheduled, celebratingsuch diverse interests as litera-ture, tattoos and pop music.To see and stay: Though the OldMontreal neighborhood housesmore touristy shops than thenewer part of the city, thedecor of the area is faithful toits heritage and allows for theflourishing of architecture that

Delightfuldetour: MontTremblantMont Tremblant is a bit of adetour between Montrealand Quebec City, but it’sworth it just to experiencethe magical relaxation avail-able at the Scandinave Spa(www.scandinave.com/en/

tremblant). It’s not just themassages that make a triphere a must after hiking upthe mountain or riding theziplines (www.tremblantac-tivities.com). What makesthis spa so special is its pre-scribed hot/cold/cool downprogram. You spend 15 min-utes in a steam room or hottub, dip in a colder pool orthe nearby lake quickly andthen chill out in one of the

ultra-comfortable double-hammocks hanging betweenthe trees. The village at MontTremblant may feel like itwas made by the same peoplewho brought you the Christ-mas Tree Shop, but you’ll for-get that as soon as the foodarrives at Aux Truffes(www.auxtruffes.com). Werecommend the pan-searedscallops or the QuebecBoileau’s red deer fillet.

SCANDINAVE SPA

Scandinave Spa features pools for body-warming, beneficial cold rinses and a relaxation period.

dates back to the 1600s. Experi-ence this history by staying atLe Petit Hotel (www.petithotel-montreal.com), a cozy 24-roomboutique hotel housed in a19th century building. It’s justblocks away from a gorgeoustestimony to Gothic Revival ar-chitecture, the Notre-DameBasilica, built in the 1820s. To do and eat: The best way toget around the city and see asmuch as possible is to use Mon-treal’s enviably comprehensiveBixi system. With bicycles setup in 411 different locationsaround the city, you’re able torent a bike for a half-hour at atime to check out all the shopson the hill. Plus, the city is sobike-friendly in its road designthat you can feel relatively safezooming down St. Urbain.There are too many top-notchrestaurants to thoroughly ex-amine here, but we highly rec-ommend Cafe Du NouveauMonde (www.tnm.qc.ca) andNora Gray (www.noragray.com).

Quebec CityTo see: If you visit Quebec Citybefore the beginning of Sep-tember, you’ll have a chance toexperience the outdoor cine-matic art installation known asthe Image Mill. Industrial grain

silos become an enormousmovie screen (98 feet high and1,968 feet wide!). The hour-longmultimedia presentation ab-stractly details the history ofthe region, something its peo-ple are well-versed in. The filmis even more rewarding if youlearn in advance the intriguingdetails about why the people inthis region speak French buthave the Queen’s face on theircurrency. The Image Mill isfree, as is the city’s Cirque duSoleil show, “Les Chemins Invisi-bles,” which is staged beneath ahighway overpass.

Woody: Jetsshould stickwith HunterIn Week 15 of the 2010 NFLseason, Wayne Hunterstepped into the starting line-up for the Jets to replace in-jured right tackle DamienWoody. It was a seamlesstransition at the time forHunter, who had only twoother starts in his seven-yearcareer.

His performance to closeout the season and in theplayoffs earned him a long-term contract last summer.

It has been all downhillsince then.

Hunter was the weakestlink on the offensive line lastyear — constantly beaten andtargeted by the opposingteam’s pass rush. For Woody,it is a confidence issue thattranslated to Hunter givingup three sacks in Saturdaynight’s preseason loss to theGiants.

“A lot of times what hap-pens — you have a bad playand it’s a snowball effect. It’slike ‘Oh man.’ Offensive lineis almost like a cornerback,”Woody told Metro. “Whenyou have a bad play as a cor-

nerback, you have to put itbehind you. There’s nothingyou can do about it, you haveto move on. It’s somethingyou definitely have to do.”

Performances like the dudagainst the Giants aren’t sup-posed to happen anymorewith Hunter. The Jets spoke

all offseason about hisimprovement.

“He’s one of the most ath-letic linemen in the league.I’ve seen it myself when I wasplaying with the Jets,” Woodysaid. “The one thing I alwaystold Wayne was to trust hisathletic ability. He’s a big,tall, strong guy with greatfeet. Trust it.

“Wayne wishes he couldhave done better; there’s noquestion about it. Hisperformance last night —people see the same old stuffhappening right now. It’s stillthe preseason and I’m not go-ing too caught up in it andother people shouldn’t.”

METRO/KD

11In addition to the 8.5sacks Wayne Hunter allowed last season, he also committed 11 penalties, seven of which were for false starts.

Woody manned the right tackle position for three seasons and 45 games for the Jets.

Jets offense not worried

The Jets are having trouble adapting to new offensive coordinator Tony Sparano’s system.

No panic despite lack of scoring Missing playmakers not helping

After eight quarters and over100 plays from scrimmage,the Jets have yet to reach theend zone. Despite what is be-ginning to look like a domi-nant defense, the inability tomove the ball, let alone scoretouchdowns, is worrisome.

But panic time for the Jets?Nah.

“Obviously you want toscore, but it’s still a long jour-ney through preseason andthere’s still plenty of time topanic later. That’s what we’retrying to do and focus on get-ting better,” center Nick Man-gold said yesterday. “We’regoing to go out there andstrive to get better. That’swhere we need to be.”

The Jets have been withouttheir three best receivers,with Santonio Holmes, Chaz

Schillens and Jeremy Kerleyall having missed the firsttwo preseason games due toinjury. The lack of playmak-ers on offense showed, withthe Jets relying on unproventargets.

It also didn’t help thatSanchez, when the Jets weredriving in the second quarter,threw a ball to Patrick Turnerthat turned into a pick six.

“Can I make that throw100 out of 100 times? Ab-solutely. Was it a bad read?No way. Great read, just put itout in front of him,” Sanchezsaid. “I’ve done it 100 times.It has to happen in the game.It just shows you how fragileit is.”

The Giants officially returnedto the cozy confines of theTimex Center in East Ruther-ford, N.J., and with them camethe pleasant surprise of a famil-iar face on the practice field —wideout Hakeem Nicks.

The four-year veteran wasmore than anxious to get backon the field, participating inroughly 50 percent of yester-day’s team drills.

“Big day, going out thereand practicing,” said Nicks. “Idid a little bit of stuff last weekindividually, but that’s all theywould let me do. Today, I got todo some reps with the team.”

Nicks, who broke his foot inMay, said all along he was confi-dent he’d make it back to worklong before the Sept. 5 openeragainst the Cowboys. Nicks’sinitial goal of making his re-turn for the preseason openeralways seemed like wishfulthinking, as the Giants’ doctorsand head coach Tom Coughlinsaid they wanted to take his re-

covery slowly.As the Giants prepare for

Friday night’s tilt against theBears in the third preseasongame — known as the “dressrehearsal” game when teams

play their starters well into thethird quarter — Nicks said he’llleave it up to the doctors andcoaches on whether he partici-pates.

“I don’t know. They’ll see

how it goes this week in prac-tice, and then [maybe] let me goout this Friday,” said Nicks.“But I think it’s going to bebased on the team doctors andcoach’s decision. ... I’m all forwhatever they decide. I knowthey’ll decide whatever is bestfor me.”

After joking about having“fresh legs” from being outwhile his brethren sweatedthrough camp and two presea-son games, Nicks noted thetoughest part of the injury wasthe mental part.

“My mind was saying, ‘Takeit easy,’ but at the same time Istill wanted to be ahead of thepace to make it back for thefirst [regular season] game,” hesaid. “The mindset is to nothave any setbacks, progressand get back into the shapethat I would like to be in whenit comes time.”

Roger Clemens, 50, hassigned with the Sugar LandSkeeters of the AtlanticLeague and plans to pitchfor them this weekend. TheHouston-area team also hasScott Kazmir on its roster.

Clemens hasn’t pitchedin the majors since 2007 forthe Yankees when hefamously announced his re-turn from the press box

during a game. He wentjust 6-6 with a 4.18 ERA in17 starts.
