1 At One Police Plaza, abroad group of patri-otic North AmericanMuslims stood to-

gether to support the bravework of the NYPD. Our re-form-minded American Is-lamic Leadership Coalitioncame from more than 10states and provinces of theU.S. and Canada to put anend to the one-sided interna-tional media coverage of at-tacks against the most suc-cessful and legal counterter-rorism programs of theNYPD.

For too long, the NYPDhas come under a sys-tematic and coordinat-ed assault by highly

politicized Islamist organiza-tions like the Council onAmerican-Islamic Relationsand the Muslim Students’ As-sociation and their enablers,intent on dismantling theNYPD’s programs. Thesegroups would prefer to seeAmerican Muslims shackledto a collective mindset of vic-timization, rather than live

up to our Muslim responsibil-ity of reforming the radicaliz-ing nature of Islamist ideas.

In fact, our anti-IslamistMuslims are often the pri-mary targets of radicalgroups. As a silent major-

ity of American Muslims, wethank God every day for theNYPD.

It is long overdue thatAmericans realize that falsefears from Islamist groups ofIslamophobia and politicalcorrectness are a smokescreen to avoid the toughwork of reform and counter-radicalization.

Yesterday was a gamechanger in America’s under-standing of the diversity ofMuslim communities andthe necessary work of theNYPD.

Mayor Michael Bloombergpledged to release the data af-ter 9/11 responders called forthe city to make public anyresearch on responders andtheir illnesses. The data showthat more than 300 copsreceived a cancer diagnosis af-ter working on Ground Zero.

But De Blasio said the datalacks details on individual

cancer cases, which wouldhelp Mount Sinai research theconnection between cancerand the toxins responders in-haled at Ground Zero.

NY Muslimsassemble tosupport copsSome New York City Muslimssaid they have nothing to hideand welcomed NYPD surveil-lance at a rally outside policeheadquarters yesterday.

The rally brought togetherMuslim groups and localpoliticians to support theNYPD, said organizer Dr. Zuh-di Jasser, American Islamic Fo-rum for Democracy founder.

Recently, the NYPD cameunder fire for Associated Pressreports detailing NYPD sur-veillance of mosques, Muslimcommunities and students.

“We as Muslims recognizewe have a major problem,”Jasser told Metro. “There’s anideological problem that weneed help rooting out.”

Saturday, CommissionerRay Kelly defended the NYPD's

programs at a Fordham Uni-versity luncheon, which wasprotested by Muslim students.“If terrorists aren’t limited byborders and boundaries, wecan’t be either," Kelly said.

Jasser was the narrator of"The Third Jihad," which saysMuslims want to “infiltrateand dominate America.” It in-cluded an interview from Kelly,though Kelly later said he re-gretted his involvement.

“I don’t see what the NYPDdid wrong at all,” said SamirAbdelkhalek, 18, a Staten Is-land senior and AIFD member.“I have nothing to hide.”

Muslim leaders will meetwith Kelly today.

NYPD supporters rallied yesterday at police headquarters.

Speaking forthe Muslimcommunity?NEW YORK. Education consult-ant and Muslim communityactivist Sara Bokhari, 29,said pro-NYPD protesters

were “out of touch with re-ality.”

“I think it’s a joke,”Bokhari said. “They have aright to say whatever ridicu-lous things they want to say,but they’re not standing upfor justice.”

Bokhari said that thenews of the NYPD’s surveil-

lance of Muslim communi-ties infringed on her rightsand was the result of racialprofiling.

“It’s a complete misalloca-tion of police resources,”Bokhari said. “There are copsspying on innocent Muslimsinstead of focusing on actualcriminals.” METRO/EAEEMILY ANNE EPSTEIN

“Muslim Americans sup-port the NYPD, but wedon’t support illegal sur-veillance of our commu-nity,” Ramadan said. “TheNYPD should be focusedon pursuing criminality.”He then went on to ques-tion Jasser’s motives, stat-ing that Jasser sought to“demonize the vast major-ity of the Muslim Ameri-can community whileattempting to legitimizehis own voice.”

The Earth Day Organic In-door Learning Garden, whichaims to create a garden in everyschool, plans to launch nation-wide this Earth Day after a pilotprogram in New York Cityreached more than 100 schools.

By partnering with inner-city schools, the group is ableto fund gardens for class-rooms. In New York, about120 schools have or will soonreceive gardens, said EarthDay New York executive direc-tor Pamela Lippe.

And about 300 more hopeto get one, she said.

“We’ve found that the pro-

gram’s got legs,” she said. By expanding the program

nationwide, they hope to pro-vide gardens to any schoolthat can either raise the fundsfor the garden and shipping —about $320 — or request one

through a donation.“What we’ve found is that

there’s such excitement andinterest around these gar-dens,” she said.

Each garden includes a con-tainer with the garden, pottingsoil and seed starter trays alongwith organic seeds.

In New York, volunteersvisit classes, helping studentsto assemble and plant theirgardens. They also teach chil-dren about fruits and vegeta-bles and basic nutrition.

The garden can even bewheeled around, making it amobile lesson.

NEW YORK. The hits keep oncoming for the Mets. And notthe ones on the field.

U.S. District Court Judge JedS. Rakoff ruled in favor ofBernie Madoff trustee IrvingPicard yesterday, telling Metsowners Fred Wilpon and SaulKatz they will have to pay upto $83 million — a hit thatcould amount to about whatthe Mets will pay players thisyear.

The ruling was the first stepof what could lead to a damag-ing trial for Mets ownership.

Wilpon’s lawyers had fileda motion for the case to be dis-missed, but Rakoff ruledagainst them. A jury trial willget underway March 19. If thejury rules in favor of Picard attrial, the Mets could owe anadditional $303 million.

Picard, who is in charge of

reclaiming money from thosewho benefited from the Mad-off Ponzi scheme on behalf ofthe victims, argued he was en-titled to the $83 million inprofits Wilpon made in thetwo years prior to Madoff’s ar-rest. With today’s ruling, thejudge agreed.

Bigger trouble might arrivewhen the jury trial begins intwo weeks. The Wilpons standto lose $303 million in dam-ages if they lose. Picard hadoriginally filed for $1 billion indamages, but Rakoff reducedthat to $386 million, includingthe $83 million.

For Mets fans looking onthe bright side, Rakoff said inhis written judgment that“[the] Court remains skepticalthat the Trustee can ultimatelyrebut the defendants’ showingof good faith.” MARK OSBORNE

Even though Obama has of-fered assurances of stiffenedU.S. resolve against Iran be-fore the White House meet-ing, the two allies are still farapart on explicit nuclear “redlines” that Tehran must not beallowed to cross, and theyhave yet to agree on a timeframe for when military ac-tion may be necessary.

Obama wants Israel to holdoff attacking Iran’s nuclear

sites, insisting there is stilltime for sanctions and diplo-macy to work. But he alsovowed he would be ready to

Join today and melt away the pounds.

Happy Super Tues-day, commuters!While voters in 10states participatein pushing the

eventual Republican presiden-tial candidate to increasinglydisastrous rightward ex-tremes, we’re going to takethis day to discuss a hauntinglegacy of another sort entirely.

We speak of late conserva-tive media prankster AndrewBreitbart, who shook the polit-

ical landscape with his “Big”Web exposes (bringing down,among other résumé high-lights, Rep. Anthony Weiner inthe infamously eponymousTwitter scandal) and thenshocked the world with hissudden death last week. Breit-bart had been planning moreBig things before he died, andthe website he founded, Breit-bart.com, relaunched late Sun-day with a new design, isproudly carrying his torch.

So it is that Breitbart’s edi-tors have printed his final col-umn, “The Vetting, Part I:Barack’s Love Song to Alin-sky,” which they describe as“a story that should swing thefirst hammer against the glasswall the mainstream mediahas built around Barack Oba-ma.” The site explains: “Andrew wanted to do whatthe mainstream media wouldnot. First and foremost: Andrew pledged to vet Presi-dent Barack H. Obama.” Well,it’s about time!

Breitbart’s swan songfocuses on Obama’salleged connectionswith communist activists in ’90s-era

Chicago; specifically his associ-ation with a play, “The LoveSong of Saul Alinsky,” after one1998 performance of whichthe then-senator participatedin a panel discussion. The stat-ed aim here is to shine somelight on Obama’s “true politi-cal will,” which he claims “theAmerican public remainslargely ignorant of.” As such,he provides a detailed — andostensibly terrifying — list ofthe other speakers on the pan-el that night, a group of com-munist individuals. In thisway, he hopes to tarnish theObama legacy as one of un-abashed psychotic leftism.

Were that it was! But ifObama’s a communist, hemust be pulling a long con. Ifanything, he’s proven himselfto be frustratingly moderate,taking for instance a very con-

servative path toward healthcare reform — righties sup-ported similar proposals be-fore the president embracedthem as a means of reachingconcensus — and angeringlefties in the process. Was it allan elaborate ruse for re-election? If so, why not just en-act his communist policies interm one? What long-termgoal could disguising himselfas a severely centrist executivepossibly serve Obama’s sup-posed Marxist overlords?

Of course there is none,and no reasonable evidence tosuggest that the president issome sort of secret radical.(Again, we wish.)

Then there’s this: Mitt Rom-ney’s father, a former Republi-can governor, apparently likedAlinsky enough to work withhim politically. How long untilBreitbart’s media empire tack-les the secret motivations ofBig Romney?

Who is Saul Alinsky, and who cares?

The U.S. Internal Revenue Ser-vice’s new software system forhandling electronic tax returnshas experienced problems dur-ing the tax filing season, anger-ing some taxpayers whose re-funds have been delayed.

In an issue that could drawcongressional scrutiny, the IRSsaid it was addressing the soft-ware glitches and that delaysin sending refunds to taxpay-ers would be minimal.

The tax collection agencyhas made a big commitment toupgrading its software and hasbeen expecting to shut downits old software system in Octo-ber.

“A final decision on thatwon’t be made until after thefiling season and after we havea chance to have additionalconversations with” tax returnpreparers, said IRS spokesman

Frank Keith.The IRS said delays in send-

ing out refunds began in Febru-ary. “There were probably sev-eral million taxpayers whosereturns we took longer toprocess,” Keith said. REUTERS

Court: Forcible medication OK

Authorities can continue to forcibly medicate accused Tucson,Ariz., shooter Jared Loughner at a Missouri prison hospital toprepare him for trial, a U.S. appeals court ruled yesterday indenying a request by his attorneys to end the treatment.

Court. Ruling

Loughner is charged with opening fire in January 2011, killing six people and wounding 13 others, including then-Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.

The IRS had projected thattaxpayers who got their 2012electronic returns in by April15 would get direct-depositrefunds seven to 13 days later;or 17 days for mailed refunds.That projection was expectedto improve on the previousyear, when direct deposit re-funds went out 8 to 15 daysafter e-files came in; and 22days for refund checks sent inthe mail.

Who is the richest — today?Carlos Slim, the telecommuni-cations tycoon who controlsMexico’s America Movil SAB,is the richest person on Earth,according to the BloombergBillionaires Index, a dailyranking of the world’s 20wealthiest individuals.

The Bloomberg BillionairesIndex takes measure of theworld’s wealthiest peoplebased on market and econom-ic changes and BloombergNews reporting. Each networth figure is updated everybusiness day at 5:30 p.m. inNew York.

Today’s ranking was pub-lished with the release of newbillionaires profile pages inthe Bloomberg Professionalservice. The profiles feature atransparent analysis of howeach billionaire’s fortune wascalculated.

Slim’s fortune has increased11 percent this year, accordingto the index. A spokesman for

Slim didn’t immediately returna telephone request for com-ment. The 72-year-old’s networth fell $478.4 million in aday to $68.5 billion as of theclose of markets on March 2, asU.S. moguls Bill Gates and War-ren Buffett placed second andthird on the list compiled byBloomberg News.

The combined net worth ofthe 20 richest people is $676.8billion. Nine are Americans,including three from the fami-ly of Sam Walton, the founderof Wal-Mart Stores Inc. Follow-ing is a list of the richest livingpeople, with their spots on thelist highlighted in green:

2Gates, 56, co-founder ofMicrosoft

Corp., is worth$62.4 billion,down $102.1 mil-

lion on March 2 and up 11percent year to date.

3The fortuneof Buffett, 81,chairman of

Omaha, Neb.-based BerkshireHathaway Inc.,

declined $336.9 million to$43.8 billion on March 2 andis up 2.4 percent in 2012. Al-most all of Buffett’s wealth isheld in Berkshire Hathaway,the publicly traded holdingcompany he has run since1965.

7No. 7 is LarryEllison, 67,chief execu-

tive officer ofRedwood City,Calif.-based Ora-

cle Corp., the world’s third-largest software maker afterMicrosoft and SAP. His $38 bil-lion fortune puts him $4 bil-lion ahead of brothers Charlesand David Koch, who, tied atNo. 8, each own 42 percent of

What about Zuck?NEW YORK. Mark Zuckerberg,the 27-year-old founder ofFacebook Inc., the world’slargest social-networkingcompany, didn’t make the

cut. Based on aroughly $100billion valua-tion the MenloPark, Calif.-based compa-

2THE WORDMetro’s Dorothy Robinson shares her take on the world of gossip @dorothyatmetro [email protected]

Another day, another phonehacking scandal involving half-dressed celebrities.

This time, Christina Hen-dricks and Olivia Munn are vic-tims after an anonymous useron Motherless.com asked thesite’s forum readers whichcelebrity they would like to seenaked. When they answeredMunn and Hendricks, the userapparently, through hackingmagic, got onto Munn’s andHendricks’ phones, grabbedsome scandalous photos, andposted them. And now they areall over the Internet.

Munn’s leaked pictures have

extremely dirty writing super-imposed over hard-core photosof the actress. Hendricks’ picsare mostly of the “Mad Men”star in half-dress, while one is afull-on shot of her world-fa-mous golden globes.

A rep for Hendricks con-firms the theft, telling GossipCop, “Christina’s phone was infact hacked and photos werestolen,” noting, “The proper au-thorities have been contactedin hopes of rectifying this situa-tion. The topless image is fakeand not an image of Christina.”

Munn is denying everything— she tweeted that the photos

aren’t hers. (As she should; if re-al, her pictures are some Hus-tler-level stuff.)

I know. Your first thought is:Why would celebrities takenaked photos of themselveswhen they know they are mostlikely to be hacked and put upon the Internet? (See: MileyCyrus, Vanessa Hudgens, BlakeLively, and Scarlett Johansson.)But, honestly, if you were thathot with enough of an ego to bean actor, you’d probably takenaked photos of yourself, too.Just maybe delete them afteryou’re done doing whatever itis you do with them?

Bieber’s birthdaydetailsJustin Bieber celebrated his18th birthday with a star-stud-ded surprise bash thrown byhis manager and his mom atthe Beverly Wilshire hotel inL.A., according to Us Weekly.“Everyone danced all night,” asource says of the soiree. De-spite notable guests like MikeTyson and Kim Kardashian,the birthday boy only hadeyes for girlfriend SelenaGomez, who flew in fromFlorida, where she’s filming amovie. “He was all over Sele-na the whole time, walkingher around by the hand,” asource says. “He kept kissingher.” As for presents, his man-ager, Scooter Braun, boughtBieber a $102,000 one-of-a-kind Fisker Karma hybridsports car.

Kutcher knowswhere Moore ishidingThere’s at least one personwho knows the location ofDemi Moore’s secret post-re-hab vacation: herestranged husband, Ash-ton Kutcher. The “Twoand a Half Men” star paida visit to the recovering ac-tress recently, according toPeople magazine —not that he was ex-actly enthusedabout it. “Theyare not gettingback together. Heknew it was impor-tant to her daugh-ters,” a source saysof the visit. As forwhere it tookplace, sources tellE! News that theyspotted Moore on aprivate beach nearParrot Cay in Turksand Caicos, at anultra-exclusive

resort only accessible by boat.

Claire Bidwell Smith ismore than the authorbehind the incrediblenew memoir, “The

Rules of Inheritance,” whichchronicles a youth spent cop-ing with the loss of both of herparents to cancer by the timeshe was 25. She is also a thera-pist specializing in grief in LosAngeles. She talked to Metroabout how one profession in-formed the other.

Do you find that writing helpswith the grief process?I think writing is an incrediblyuseful tool for moving throughgrief. It’s something I alwaysencourage the people I counselto do, whether it’s in the formof writing remembrances of aloved one or writing actual let-ters to the person they’ve lost.The act of writing is like open-ing a door in your head to all

the things that you can some-times be afraid to say or think.But the thing about grief is thatit just doesn’t go away until youreally sit with it, until you real-ly let yourself experience it.Therefore, taking time to writeabout all the things you mightbe hesitant to let yourself feel isa great way to move throughthe emotions.Why did you pick the title “TheRules of Inheritance”?“The Rules of Inheritance”refers to a few things. The rulespart refers to the five stages ofgrief I reference in the book,and to the way that no matterwhat, there are certain mo-tions a person has to gothrough in order to movethrough grief. As for inheri-tance, I felt that I inherited somuch from my parents. Insome ways I simply inherited alot of grief and sadness over

their loss, but in other ways Iinherited this wonderful legacyof the kind of people they were. Did your training as a grieftherapist help or hinder yourcreative process?I think my training as a thera-pist absolutely helped with thisbook. On one hand, it helpedme to understand myself andthe process of grief on a muchdeeper level, one that really en-abled me to write this book. Onthe other hand, I think thattherapy and writing have a bitin common. As a therapist, Iwork to help people to under-stand the narrative of theirlives, and often I help them toreshape it. In that regard, beinga therapist was a really uniqueway to better understand all theways that we tell our stories.

If listeners perceive a previ-ously unheard gravitas be-neath the bouncy groovesand anthemic choruses of

the new O.A.R. album, that’sbecause while working on“King,” the band went throughdark times. Singer and guitaristMarc Roberge says that hiswife’s diagnosis with cancerand her subsequent successfultreatment gave new meaningto soul-searching verses he hadalready been working on. Notonly did the hardship serve as alyrical litmus test of sorts, butthe experience also made himrealize how important the

band he started with his friendsin high school really is to him.

“I went into the album withevery intention of writingabout somebody who has cometo this realization, you know,somebody who has realizedthat you can’t live your life con-stantly out there searching forsomething — at some pointyou’ve got to just look rightaround you at everything that’swithin arm’s reach,” he says.“In the middle of the record-making process, when every-thing started to happen on thehome front, it really solidifiedit — but at the same time itmade me realize how full of it Iwas. It’s really good to talkabout that — it’s kind of cool toput out positive quotes — butuntil you really have to, it’s alljust words.”

The music on “King” cer-

tainly does put out the positivevibes, and there is a palpablesting of sincerity as Robergesings lines like, “I know you’vegot my back,” against a reggaerhythm in “Fire,” and “every-thing we got is everything weneed” in “Heaven.”

“You have this dream whenyou’re 15 that you want to beon the road,” says Roberge.“Then life goes on, and you’rein a band for 15 years, you havekids and all these brothers inthe band. It becomes very diffi-cult to balance the world oftravel and home. You get test-ed every single tour, and you really have to love it. … And itturned out, when it got hard,everyone still wanted to get themusic out there.”

Rain O.A.R. shineOn their new album, friends that formed a band in high school come

together to reaffirm their commitment to one another through the best oftimes and the worst of times Singer on holding up to his own lyrics

Of a revelation

This upcoming string ofshows marks the first head-lining dates in NYC since sell-ing out Madison SquareGarden in 2009 for O.A.R.,whose name stands for Of ARevolution. Instead of playingbigger venues, the membersof O.A.R. decided that theywanted to play multiplenights at smaller venues.

“We’ll go in there and play al-most every song we’ve everhad,” says Roberge. “We’regoing to try to write songs on-stage. It’s going to be com-pletely loose. We’re going tobring in some special guests.… We really want to connectwith our very close fan-base.”

O.A.R plays sold-out shows tonight through Saturday at The Bowery Ballroom (6 Delancey St.).

Sonia Rykiel

1The house of Rykiel has gonethrough a lot of change lately.

It has a relatively new creativedirector, April Crichton; newowners (Hong-Kong based FungBrands just purchased an 80 per-cent stake in the company lastweek); and a new look. The onlyproblem is that the clothes weremissing all the color, humor andParisian, girly fun we love thebrand for. Instead, the collectionfeatured pared-downsportswear staples includingskirt and trouser suits in a neu-tral color palette of black, ivory,nude and apricot — not a singlebright-colored, striped sweaterin sight. Sonia sat front row, asalways — her hair adding amuch-needed shock of redto the setting. But herspunk was sadly missing onthe runway. Let’s just hopethat the new regimedoesn’t lose the DNAof the brand she built.

HaiderAckermann

2HaiderAckermann has

been on an unstop-pable creative streakthat heightens witheach collection. HisSaturday morningshow took placeagainst a backdrop of ru-mors that he would begetting the creative direc-tor job at Christian Dior.And based on the clotheshe showed, which were anincredible thesis on the artof jaw-dropping garmentconstruction, he could han-dle the role of couturier withno problem. He showed com-

plex outerwear with curved,sinewy lines that demanded tobe studied at every angle. Somecame with elaborately gatheredpeplums, others with beautifullydraped backs. These wereclothes to be collected ascontemporary art —but also tobe worn. And that’s ultimatelywhat makes jaded editors givehim a standing ovation as theydid on Saturday. Haider's work isartful, complicated and high-brow, without over-intellectual-izing things. The clothesultimately do what most womenwant clothes to do: make themfeel long, lean and beautiful.That’s the kind of skill that canonly be developed with time.

Givenchy

3Givenchy is always one ofthe most anticipated shows

of Paris. Riccardo Tisci didn’tdisappoint with a

collection inspired bythe equestrian worldand the work ofphotographer GuyBourdin. Forget the sex-less, tweedy huntingset — Tisci’s horseytheme was racy withan S&M sensibility.There were riding jack-ets cinched tight; rid-ing boots, jodhpur

pants and furs (from asuccessful hunt, maybe?)

teamed with leather glovesrunning high beyond the el-bow and hinting toward adifferent kind of horseplay.All that was missing was thewhip. What followed werepleated skirts, camisoles andcocktail dresses with lace ap-plique in striking colors suchas blood red and sage green.

According to Charles I. Shubin,M.D., we have a condition inthe U.S. that he calls a “feverphobia.” “We are scared offevers,” says the Medical Direc-tor of Children’s Health Center,Mercy Family Care (a subsidiaryof Family Health Centers ofBaltimore). “We’re worried thatif we don’t treat a child’s fever,something bad will happen.”But as Dr. Shubin carefullypoints out, treating a fever

doesn’t mean dosing a childwith medicine. The best ap-proach is to figure out what isgoing on with the child in thefirst place. From there, most ofthe time, it’s best to just let itrun its course. Here’s how:

Understand what a fever is.“A fever not a disease; it’s yourbody’s best mechanism to re-spond and defend itself to in-fection,” says Dr. Shubin. “Youcan’t ‘cure’ a fever, but you cantry to cure what is happeningto them.”

Look at the child. “We hadthree kids in the office todaywith fevers who were running

around like nothing waswrong,” recounts Dr. Shubin.“So why would we interferewith the body’s natural re-sponse system?” Dr. Shubinsays that the underlying princi-ple for most doctors it to treatthe child. If the child is miser-able, treat him with an over-the-counter fever reducer. “Justknow that if you do, it mightmake the child sick for longer.”

Keep your child hydrated. “Al-though most fevers are harm-less, your child can becomedehydrated. Keeping them hy-drated will make them feelbetter.”

If your child is less than 2

months of age, take him or herto a hospital. A fever in a childthis age is very concerning.“These children need to be seenright away as they might not beold enough to fight off infec-tion,” he says. Another concernthat warrants a trip to the hos-pital is if the child is becomingunresponsive.

Still worried? Call your pedia-trician. “Doctors and theirstaffs have protocols to dis-pense advice over the phone.We can usually tell what is go-ing on for peace of mind.”

Dos anddon’ts for treating yourchild’s fever

If your child has a fever and is less than 2 months old,head to the hospital.

Gemini May 21-June 20. Hold yourtongue so that you don’t acciden-tally say anything abrasive aboutsomeone who is extremely impor-tant to your plans. She or he willhear about it and won’t be likely tolaugh it off.

Cancer June 21-July 22. Even whentalking to someone for whom youhave little respect, keep an openmind about matters that concernyou. You could learn somethingquite valuable.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22. Being jealousor envious of others is always a self-defeating attitude. If you let it getthe best of you, you could say some-thing that you might deeply regret.

Solution to yesterday’s crossword

Who’s dividingAmerica, again?RE: “THREE WAYS OBAMA IS DIVIDING AMERICA”: It’s a pitythat improving educationdidn’t make the top five inMr. Bovinski’s list of threethings he would do as presi-dent. MARIA ELENA MCWILLIAMS,VIA E-MAIL

The title of your letter is asill-conceived as the points itcontains. Let me explain why.1: All elected officials can al-ways listen more and dictateless, so you might as well say“be nicer” or “agree with memore frequently.” 2: Secureborders are a pipe dream. Justthe Mexican and Canadianborders are nearly 10,000miles of territory and thereare tens of thousands ofmiles of ocean where no wallwould help. 3: The presidentdoesn’t cut spending,

Congress does. Nor does thepresident print money. It’scomplicated; ask an adult. 4:Congress’s job, again. 5: Con-gress. Again. Everyone is enti-tled to an opinion, but youmight consider a refresher onhigh school social studies be-fore you get on your highhorse. JEREMY CONRAD, BROOKLYN

John Bovinski says thisadministration is dividingAmerica. Really? I didn’tknow President Obama wasrestricting women’s rightsand attacking the middleclass while endorsing contin-ued tax cuts for the top 1 per-cent. Ending the war in Iraqand bringing our troopshome? Quite divisive. Promot-ing renewable energy sourcesinstead of being slaves tocountries of the Middle East?How un-American. ROBERT LA ROSA, WHITESTONE

Israel asks much,takes even moreRE: “ISRAEL SO SMALL, ITS ENE-MIES SO LARGE”: Actually, Israelasks the U.S. for much morethan verbal support. The U.S.gives Israel over $3 billion inaid per year and what do weget in return? American sup-port of Israel has resulted inhatred toward the U.S.throughout the Middle Eastand made our citizens lesssafe. CARL HANSON, VIA E-MAIL

Thanks, Joan Bachman, forarticulating your support forIsrael, home to fewer than 6million Jews (familiar num-ber?), a tiny strip of landneighbored by mortal enemystates exceeding it 100-foldin combined size and popu-lation. Not a single othercountry’s staggering humanrights violation record has

ever been singled out so bla-tantly as Israel’s.GAROLD MINKIN, NEW YORK

Let’s also not forget that Iran,because it signed the NuclearNon-Proliferation Treaty, is al-lowed to refine uranium forenergy. Israel has neversigned the NPT, and instead ofparticipating in a global dis-cussion about disarmamentassassinates scientists instead.And now they’re talkingabout war. If Israel wants to“sit back and protect itself,”they can stop the murder. Is-rael isn’t the only countrywith the right to protectitself. RYAN ROCHE, VIA E-MAIL

Please be careful toavoid sexist dictionRE: “LIMBAUGH SORRY FOR CALLING GIRL A SLUT”: YourRush Limbaugh headline wasmisworded. The “girl” you re-ferred to is Sandra Fluke, whois actually a 30-year-old lawstudent. She is not a “girl.”Please try harder to avoid thisdemeaning and sexist usagein the future.

pagne powder.”St. John describes New Mexi-

co’s snow as “user-friendly.”The snow back east, he says, iswetter, more dense and turnsinto ice very quickly. “Westernsnow is dryer and lighter, andso much easier to ski.”

New Mexico’s snowstormsdon’t linger. After depositingfresh snow on the trails, theclouds clear quickly, giving wayto the warm sun that the stateis known for, even in the win-ter. “There’s lots of sunshine toski in, along with the powder,”says St. John. “That combina-tion is just extraordinary.”

After a lackluster winter, North-east skiers and snowboardersmay not be surprised to hearthat some of the best snow ofthe season fell in the deserts ofNew Mexico. “This year we’vebeen particularly blessed,” saysKevin St. John, a private instruc-tor who has been skiing in NewMexico for more than 40 years.“We’ve gotten these wonderfullittle storms, one after another.”

Ski Santa Fe, a ski area 16miles northeast of the city, hasreceived more than 132 inchesof snow this winter. Angel FireResort reported 126 inches, andthe season isn’t over yet. “We’llbe skiing through the firstweek of April,” says St. John.

Northern New Mexico’s ex-

cellent ski conditions may bean unintentionally well-kept se-cret. Even though the state ishome to the venerable Taos SkiValley, a recent focus groupheld by the state tourism de-partment revealed that manyAmericans were unaware thatit even snowed in New Mexico.And it’s not just any snow: Theregion’s combination of highaltitude and dry, desert air cre-ates ideal conditions for thelight, fluffy and eminently ski-able snow known as “cham-

In the news

Pineda appearsYankees fans caughttheir first glimpse ofnew starter MichaelPineda yesterday.

Pineda was impres-sive in his first two in-nings of the spring,striking out two andallowing one hit intwo innings of work.

David Robertson,who is expected to bethe main set-up manfor Mariano Rivera,pitched after Pineda— allowing one runon one hit and a walkin his first work of thespring.

Big East hits the Garden

Syracuse(30-1, 17-1)OK, so it’s not exactly goingout on a limb to saySyracuse, the No. 2 team inthe country, is a topcontender to win the BigEast tournament.

Fans from central NewYork always travel well tothe Garden and, let’s face it,they have the best team.

But that doesn’t mean

they will win.When theywon the na-tional title in2003, theydidn’t evenmake the fi-

nal — despite havingCarmelo Anthony.

Only twice in thelast eight years hasthe top seed won.Syracuse is acontender, butnot our pick.

Contenders

Conference tournament begins today at noon Top-seed Syracuse is a major favorite, butare they our pick to take the crown? Metro gives you our winner, plus who not to overlook

Marquette(25-6, 14-4)Metro’s pick to win it allis the team that’s gottenno respect all year.

The Golden Eagles arecoming off a rompagainst Georgetown, andall four conference lossesare on the road — includ-ing a tough one at the Or-ange. We like their pathto the title game too.

Connecticut(18-12, 8-10)You may question whetherthe Huskies be-long as an un-der-the-radarteam comingoff a title lastyear, but theyare the No. 9 seedand will have to play thefirst day.

Sound familiar?It better, because it’s

the same scenario as lastseason, when they won theBig East tournament andthen marched to thenational title. They evenopened with the sameteam — DePaul. Thesecond team they’d face isWest Virginia, a teamthey’ve already beaten thisyear.

Jim Calhoun is back incharge, Shabazz Napierlooked great against Pitt,and it shouldn’t surpriseyou to see another tourneyrun. MARK OSBORNE

South Florida(19-12, 12-6)If you have a soft spot inyour heart for the scrappy,underdog Bulls, we’re sorry.Their feel-good story isover.

They went into the lastweekend of the season

with a chance tosecure a double-byein the tournament.Instead, they chokedat home against WestVirginia in a gamethat set back basket-

ball a few decades.They shot 39 percentfrom the field, includ-

ing an ugly 2-of-14from 3. But that’s

just one game,right?

Actuallytheir 44-pointoutput was oneof 10 times they

couldn’t breakthe 50-point bar-rier. Syracuse did

it, unsurprisingly, zerotimes.

But even teams in themiddle of the pack didn’thave that horrific of an of-fensive output regularly.Cincinnati did it once; sodid Louisville. Seton Halldid it three times.

The Bulls can’t score.They’re tenacious, they’regutty and they do anincredibly poor job of put-ting the ball into thebasket.

Those aren’t the kind ofteams you want to pick inMarch.

They had a nice run,nabbing the No. 6 seed inthe tourney — but theywon’t be sticking aroundlong and they don’t deservea spot in the big dance.
