City unveils new way tokeep tabs on New Yorkers
Notice all those cameras? The city has a new way to inspect all the footage, instantly A new data systemrevealed yesterday allows cops to look up arrest records, 911 calls and license plates simultaneously {page 02}
Cops sitting in a technologi-cally advanced command cen-ter may be watching you, par-ticularly if you just committeda crime.
Under a new data systemunveiled yesterday by theNYPD and Microsoft, officerscan instantly access footagefrom the thousands of cam-eras, license plate readers andradiation detectors locatedthroughout the city.
At the same time, they canlook up relevant 911 calls, ar-rest records, related crimesand other data with the newDomain Awareness System,according to the NYPD.
“It is one-stop shopping forinvestigators,” Police Commis-sioner Ray Kelly said at a high-tech command center in low-er Manhattan. “It’s a tremen-dous amount of informationthat’s available, and it’s avail-able quickly.”
When Kelly first becamecommissioner in 2002, the de-partment was still using Wite-Out and carbon paper, he said.
But now, with the help ofpowerful software, police canimmediately rewind videofeeds to see who left a suspi-cious package.
They can also track where
a car associated with a suspectis, and where it has been overthe previous days, weeks andmonths, according to Kelly.
Though New York Cityspent $30 million to $40 mil-lion developing the system, itwill get 30 percent of rev-enues that Microsoft collectsselling the system to othercities.
“We think we can recoupall of our expenses over a peri-od of time and maybe evenmake a few bucks,” MayorMichael Bloomberg said.
New York has about 3,000cameras linked up with theDomain Awareness System,the majority of which are inlower Manhattan, south ofCanal Street, or in midtownbetween 30th Street and 60thStreet, police said.

Report sayspark crimeon the rise
Three teenagers shot at Bronxplayground Shootings andstabbings increasing, group says
EMILY ANNE EPSTEIN/METRO
Despite reported crimes, New Yorkers still enjoy city parks.
The day after three teenagerswere shot in a Bronx play-ground, a new report reveals aspike in park and playgroundcrime since 2009.
NYC Parks Advocates re-ported 13 shootings since Julyand alleged that crime is up 24percent since 2009 -- jumpingfrom 265 crimes in 2009 to 327in 2011.
Spokesman Geoffrey Croftwrote that violence in cityparks and playgrounds has be-come a major problem, espe-cially shootings and stabbings.
Out of the 13 shootings,four people were killed andnine injured, according to thegroup’s data. Also, two peoplewere stabbed, and one died.
Tuesday night, three teenswere shot in Agnes HaywoodPlayground in the Bronx.
Brooklyn Councilman Ju-maane Williams, co-chair of
the Task Force to Combat GunViolence, said the triple shoot-ing, along with Brooklyn andHarlem violence, reflected“madness.”
“There seems to be no cor-ner of this city right now thatis truly safe from guns,” hesaid.
Five parks — Central Park,Flushing Meadow Corona Park,Riverside Park, Prospect Parkand Crotona Park – were re-sponsible for more than two-thirds, or 67 percent, of parkcrime in the entire city, Croftsaid.
Croft has pushed for morelaw enforcement officials topatrol city parks.
The Parks Department andNYPD did not respond to a re-quest for comment.
Reported crimesin city parks sofar this summerOn July 30, a man attacked aSpanish tourist with a ham-mer in City Hall Park.
On July 27, a 14-year-oldboy was gunned down inHaffen Park in the Bronx.
On July 25, five peoplewere wounded when a gun-
man opened fire at a basket-ball tournament at RuckerPark in Harlem.
Just days before this inci-dent, 4-year-old Lloyd Mor-gan was killed after a straybullet hit him in the Bronx.
Tuesday night, threeteeangers were reportedlyshot while they were insideAgnes Haywood Playgroundin the Bronx.

The London Olympics may bewinding down, but the gamesare just heating up here inNew York.
Inspired by blockbusterathletes like Michael Phelps,Missy Franklin, Gabby Dou-glas and Aly Raisman, city resi-dents are dusting off theirSpeedos and leotards andheading to the gym.
At Chelsea Piers, enroll-ment in upcoming fall semes-ter gymnastics classes is up 45percent compared to the yearbefore, according to Kim Rich,gymnastics director at the fa-cility.
She said that the new gym-nasts include both childrenand adults.
“They see what the gym-nasts are doing on TV, andthey say, ‘I want to do whatthey’re doing,’” Rich said.
The Brooklyn GymnasticsCenter in Bath Beach andLana’s Gymnastics Club inFlushing also told Metro theynoticed enrollment increases,along with a rise in calls frominquiring parents.
At Asphalt Green, mean-while, interest is up roughly10 to 20 percent for swimclasses and the swim team, ac-cording to Paul Weiss, chiefprogram officer at the UpperEast Side athletic complex.
“We get a heck of a re-sponse every four years,”Weiss said. “If Team USA hasdone well in a sport, it’s evenmore pronounced.”
Children watching theOlympics develop idols andwant to emulate them, whileparents are impressed by howthe athletes appear so whole-some, noncynical, hard-work-ing and goal-oriented, he ex-plained.
Missy Franklin, for exam-ple, comes across as tall, artic-ulate, happy, competitive, so-cial and respectful, he said.
“She’s the Olympic ideal,”Weiss said. “Parents aspirethat for their kids.”
Inspired NewYorkers ready to swim, tumble
Gymnastics notjust a girls’ sportParents are not alwaysthrilled about their sons par-ticipating in gymnastics dueto its reputation as a girls’sport. But because it requiresbalance, strength and coordi-nation, “It’s actually one ofthe most amazing sports thata boy can get into, because itwill prepare them for anytype of athletic career lateron,” said Victoria Suleymano-va, office manager at Lana’sGymnastics Club.

July was hottest monthever for continental US
The drought triggered a surge in the prices for U.S. corn and soybeans to record highs last month, with values rising about 50 percent and 30 percent, respectively, over the past two months.
July was the hottest month inthe continental United Stateson record, beating the hottestmonth in the devastating DustBowl summer of 1936, the gov-ernment reported yesterday.
It was also the warmest Jan-uary-to-July period since mod-ern record-keeping began in1895, and the warmest 12-month period, eclipsing the lastrecord set just a month ago, theNational Oceanic and Atmos-pheric Administration said.
This is the fourth time in asmany months that tempera-tures broke the hottest 12-month record.
The average temperature forJuly across the contiguous 48states was 77.6 degrees F, or 3.3degrees F above the 20th centu-ry average. The previouswarmest July, in 1936, averaged77.4 degrees F.
Along with record heat,
drought covered nearly 63percent of the 48 contiguousstates, according to NOAA’sDrought Monitor, with near-record drought conditions inthe Midwest, where 75 per-cent of the U.S. corn and soy-bean crops are grown.
Analysts expect thedrought, the worst since 1956,will yield the smallest corncrop in six years, meaningrecord-high prices and tightsupplies. REUTERS

Schools pitch new degreesat job-focused students
New programs will help graduates develop careers.
Despite a full-time job as a me-chanical engineer, Sean Whit-ney is carving out hours topursue the new Johns HopkinsMBA/M.A. in “Design Leader-ship.” Whitney believes theprogram, a collaboration ofthe Johns Hopkins Carey Busi-ness School and the MarylandInstitute College of Art, willteach him management skillswhile he learns to think morecreatively.
His goal: to open his ownbusiness designing consumerproducts. “I have a back-ground in design, and this wasa good way to blend the twoworlds,” Whitney, 31, says.
This fall, name-brandschools like Hopkins, North-western University, the Uni-versity of Michigan and Par-sons School of Design arelaunching cross-disciplinarymasters programs meant tomake students more competi-
tive in a changing economy.While colleges have al-
ways tweaked their offerings,the newest crop of programsseems particularly designedfor the times: They are multi-disciplinary, job focused andoften influenced by privateindustry. They typically in-volve mixing creativity withmanagement, data-crunchingskills with industry-specificcontent and science withbusiness and managementskills.
Some of these new hybrids,especially in the sciences, al-low graduates to pursue tech-nical jobs with master’s de-grees rather than Ph.D.s. Inother cases, they reveal the in-fluence of private companiesthat are helping to fund anddesign the programs, presum-ably in ways that will producegraduates the companies wantto hire. REUTERS

SUMMER HOT WHEELS“This is a generation that isscared of commitment, wantsto be light on their feet andneeds to adjust to whateverhappens,” said Cliff Zukin, aprofessor of public policy andpolitical science at the EdwardJ. Bloustein School of Planningand Public Policy at Rutgers,the state university of New Jer-sey., who’s researched the ef-fects of the recession on re-cent college graduates. “Whatonce was seen as a solid in-vestment, like a house or acar, is now seen as a ball andchain with a lot of risk to it.”
One key difference is thattechnology now allows com-panies to provide youngerconsumers access to whatthey want, when they want itand at a reduced cost, said Pa-co Underhill, founder of NewYork-based consumer-behav-ior research and consultingfirm Envirosell.
“Renting makes a lot ofsense,” said David Blanch-flower, professor of economicsat Dartmouth College in NewHampshire and a BloombergTelevision contributing editor.“They have no money andthey are not buying fridgesand they are not buying thethings they normally buywhen they set up homes.Their incomes are a lot lower.”
College graduates earnedless coming out of the reces-sion, according to a May studyby the John J. Heldrich Centerfor Workforce Development atRutgers. Those graduating
during 2009 to 2011 earned amedian salary in their startingjob $3,000 less than the$30,000 seen in 2007. The ma-jority of students owed$20,000 to pay off their educa-tion, and 40 percent of the 444college graduates surveyedsaid their loan debt is causingthem to delay major purchas-es such as a house or a car. TheU.S. Consumer Financial Pro-tection Bureau said in Marchit appeared student loans hadreached $1 trillion “severalmonths” earlier.
The U.S. economy shrank4.7 percent from December2007 to June 2009, making itthe deepest and longest slumpin the post-war era. In thethree years since the recessionended, the economy has ex-panded 6.7 percent, the weak-est recovery since World WarII.
Even as the housing mar-ket shows some signs of re-vival, the slow pace of recov-ery is keeping the youngergeneration fearful of invest-ments rather than confidentabout building wealth for thefuture, said Jeffrey Lubell, ex-ecutive director for the Cen-ter for Housing Policy, basedin Washington. First-timehome buyers in 2011 account-ed for the smallest percentageof the total since 2006, accord-ing to the National Associa-tion of Realtors. The vacancyrate of U.S. rental propertiesis at its lowest level since2002. BLOOMBERG

Joan Rivers, official patronsaint of The Word, has beenon a campaign against Costcoever since they declined tosell her new book, “I HateEveryone … Starting WithMe.” (Seems she’s a little toocontroversial for the bulk pa-per towel crowd.)
But on Tuesday afternoonshe took her protest to thenext level, setting up outsidean unsuspecting Costco storein Burbank, Calif., to air hergrievances — and, of course,sell her book.
“Costco should not be likeNazi Germany. Next thingthey’ll be burning the Bible,”she yelled into a megaphonewhile someone — let’s callthis person Best Costco Cus-tomer Ever — filmed her.
Rivers eventually took hershow inside the store, whereshe handcuffed herself to ashopping cart with the help ofcustomers.
“I know you’re trying tothrow me out of your store,but this is bigger than both ofus,” she told a manager, whoeventually had to call policeto escort her out. “This is pri-vate property that we’vestolen from the Indians — theIndians are the original own-ers of this property.”
Joan Rivers, bless us andkeep us, and make yourBotox-ridden face shine uponus.

Christian Siriano is mak-ing it work. The colorful“Project Runway” Sea-son 4 winner just
opened his first retail locationin SoHo.
The 1,000-square foot bou-tique, located at 252 ElizabethSt., isn’t just filled with over-thetop ruffled gowns — there’s alittle something for everyone,insists the designer.
“The whole idea is to have aplace existing customers canshop, while getting new cus-tomers,” Siriano says. “I want tofamiliarize different peoplewith the brand.”
In order to do so, the 26-year-old is featuring a mix ofprice points. Shelves displaypieces from Siriano’s luxurious
main line, shoes from his af-fordable collection for Payless,exclusive accessories such asclutches and wallets, and homedecor the antique lover de-signed himself.
A welcoming environmentalso was key for the designer,who included a cozy fireplace
and seating area in the back ofthe boutique.
“Designer stores can be in-timidating. I want everyone tofeel comfortable going in. I did-n’t want it to be too stuffy,” hesays.
That’s not to say there isn’tpanache.
A wall painted stark blackfeatures large framed photos oflooks from Siriano’s collectionshe’s most proud of — includingthe skirt Sarah Jessica Parkerrecently wore in a photo shootfor Marie Claire. A dramaticchandelier hangs in the fittingroom, and a fake zebra skin ruggreets customers.
“I wanted it to feel likehome,” Siriano says. “Glam-orous, sexy and elegant.”
WATCH OUT — SOHOIS ABOUT TO GET
FIERCEChristian Siriano, the Season 4 ‘Project Runway’
winner, opens his first NYC store
Christian Siriano’s new store had a soft launch last month and will officially open on Sept. 5,just in time for a fab Fashion’s Night Out party, we’re sure.
Siriano’s three
fall must-haves
1 LBD — with a twist“If you’re going to have agreat black dress, the fabricshould be interesting,”
Siriano says. “Things tolook for include texturesand shine.”
2 A leather jacket “It’s important. It’s a staple.”
3 Red, red wine “I’m really into this
beautiful burgundy winecolor,” says the designer. Hegives his stamp of approvalto party dresses, daydresses and blouses in thecolor.

“The whole idea is tohave a place existingcustomers can shop,while getting newcustomers. I want to familiarizedifferent people with the brand.” SIRIANO
with the usual excitement andreservation that comes at thestart of any promising possibili-ty. But Adam took off, gainingspeed faster than she expected:telling her how much he likedher, wanting her to meet hisfriends, calling and texting allthe time. Since she liked himtoo, she joined in and wentalong for the ride. Before sheknew it, though, she was aheadof him, and he had sloweddown, suddenly saying hecouldn’t keep up with her ex-pectations. And then she didn’thear from him. That was two
weeks ago.How can you make sure you
don’t get ahead of the relation-ship, particularly if one personis coming on strong? Beforeyou let yourself go full-steamahead, you might want to buildin a few speed bumps for your-self. There are some peoplewho jump into a relationshipfast, and then want out fast,and you want to protect your-self from getting too attached ifthere is the chance that personcould burn out.
You can do that by beingaware of when and how muchof your feelings you share. Ifthey say they like you, you canreciprocate with an, “I like youtoo, let’s see where this goes.” Ifthey want you to meet theirfriends, suggest you get toknow each other a little betterfirst. Build a foundation underthe two of you before getting
carried away.
When Adam told Lucyhe couldn’t keep upwith her, it was theequivalent of the
Bachelorette’s not offering arose. It just took her a littlewhile to realize it, and by thenshe was halfway down thehighway and looking forwardto the road trip. Once you’rethere, it’s harder to come back.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22. Normally,you’re a very cautious person, buttoday you might step out of charac-ter and take some risks. Remember,there is usually a pretty good reasonwhy the odds are lopsided.
Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22. In your de-sire to have everything wrapped up,you might deem incomplete en-deavors finished work. Kidding your-self could stop you from pushingwhen you need to do your best.
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 23. If your logicand intuition are in conflict, to be onthe safe side go with reality insteadof your hunches. At least that wayyou’ll know you’re not dealing withsupposition.
Scorpio Oct. 24-Nov. 22. You couldbe setting yourself up for disap-pointment if you’re nice to peopleonly in hopes that they’ll be nice toyou in return. If your motives are in-sincere, folks will see right throughyou.
Sagittarius Nov. 23-Dec. 21. Yourjudgment is questionable right now,making it possible that you’ll try toreward the undeserving in order toget something from them thatthey’re reluctant to part with. Don’tdo it.
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19. Some-one who believes you’re untrustwor-
thy might test you. It’ll be up to youto make sure that you don’t discussanything told to you in confidence.
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 19. An as-sociate might come to you with aproposition that sounds exception-ally good at first hearing. It be-hooves you to listen and question itto make sure it isn’t exaggerated.
Pisces Feb. 20-March 20. Objectivesthat aren’t normally too difficult toachieve might be extremely elusive,all because those who are usuallysupportive may now be more hin-drance than help.
Aries March 21-April 19. You’llthink much better of yourself if youdon’t allow what pleases you to takeprecedence over your responsibili-ties and duties. Do what is expectedof you first.
Taurus April 20-May 20. Yourgreatest problems are likely to comenot from adversaries but from thosewhom you’re trying to help. Grinand bear it.
Gemini May 21-June 20. Operatingindependently of others might beone of the smartest things you’ll do,especially if a prospective counter-part is as strong-willed as you.
Cancer June 21-July 22. Don’t try topush your luck beyond its limita-tions, because your chance for mate-rial gain is only nominal. BERNICE BEDE OSOL

The granddaddy, of course,is Astoria’s 102-year-old Bo-hemian Hall & Beer Garden (29-19 24th Ave.), the last remain-ing beer garden from a timewhen there were hundreds ofCentral European–style hallsaround the city. Grab a seat at acommunal table in the shadyyard for Czech beer and grilledkielbasa. Nearby, Studio Square(35-33 36th St.) offers a moremodern garden with live mu-sic, pitchers of beer, pretzelsand all manner of fried snacks.Up in the Bronx, Nicky’s BBQ &Beer Garden (3392 E. TremontAve.) has an outdoor barbecue
pit and a 200-inch projectorscreen showing movies andsports.
Williamsburg’s RadegastHall & Biergarten (113 N. 3rdSt.), with a roof that closes ininclement weather, offers abaker’s dozen beers on tap.Through the modern frontroom of Greenpoint’s TBD (224Franklin St.) is a surprisinglycharming, rocky beer garden.Stop by when the grill is firedfor burgers and grilled corn.

ed their beer in barrels in giantcellars. To keep those vats ofliquid gold cold during thesummer months, the cellarswere covered with gravel andshady trees — and with the ad-dition of a few benches, thegrounds became the perfectspot to drink the libations thatwere brewed onsite. By those

Brotherlylove is inthe air
New York andPhiladelphia: bothbrilliant food townsin their own rights.
And the best of both citiesresides in Justin Bogle, anIlladelph transplant whonow heads the kitchen atMidtown restaurant Gilt.Bogle, who lives with hiswife in Battery Park City, isthe youngest New York chefto receive two Michelinstars for three years in arow. Gilt is housed in TheNew York Palace’s historicVillard Mansion, and wasone of Forbes’ Top FiveSpots Worthy of a MarriageProposal.
We spoke to Chef Bogleabout his progressive Ameri-can cuisine and how he andhis team keep it romantic.
How do you create cuisine tomatch Gilt’s romantic vibe?We try to enhance it. Thespace has a lot of history —it’s this grandiose mansionfrom the 1800s. It can be alittle overwhelming at timesfor people who aren’t expect-ing it. Our job is to bring amodern edge to the diningroom. We have this old spacewith these old wooden pan-els and old artwork and gild-ed ceilings — and then whenthe plates hit the table, it’s acontrast that people reallyaren’t expecting. It bringsyou to the now.What are the most romanticdishes on your menu?One of the more romanticways to dine at Gilt is just tocome in and leave it up to us.Do the Chef’s Grand Tastingwith the wine pairings. If it’sa special occasion, let usknow well in advance, andwe will definitely go above
and beyond making surethat you have a wonderfultime. The sommelier and Iwork really hard on our tast-ing menus, and our winepairings to give the guests atrue journey through whatGilt has to offer. ... We defi-nitely get a lot of proposalsin here, and we like to havefun with it.What dictates the dishes thatmake it to the tasting menu?The seasons, 100 percent.But it changes: A dish couldbe on the menu fromanywhere from two weeks tothree months — it’s really upto us. Something could stillbe in season, but if we seesomething else that we’drather work with then thatdish is done and we move onto the next one. But the sea-sons dictate everythingthat’s on the menu at anygiven time. ... Dishes take awhile to finalize. We’ll workon a dish for a good week ortwo before it ever leaves thekitchen. There’s a lot of de-tail behind it.So after all that work, haveyou ever seen a proposal declined?Um, yeah … but theydefinitely ate well that night.

old a veteran in any sport.But when you are AllysonFelix, who burst onto the
Olympic scene in 2004 as agawky 18-year-old and hadnever won an individual goldmedal, 26 can feel very old.
Felix threw that 800-poundgorilla off her back last nightas she claimed gold in her sig-nature event — the 200 me-ters.
Felix won silver in bothAthens and Beijing in the 200meters, finishing behind Ja-maican Veronica Campbell-Brown both times.
“I thought back to the dis-appointment in Beijing. It’sbeen a long road. I never want-ed to give up,” Felix told re-porters after the race. “It’sbeen a journey, but you can’tlose sight of your dream. It’sjust awesome; I've wanted it
for so long. This moment is re-ally priceless.”
Felix had set her sights onwinning the 200, even thoughshe qualified for the final inthe 100 meters and finishedfifth.
“To get on the podium willbe so emotional,” Felix said. “Imean finally.”
She was joined on the podi-um by fellow American and100-meter silver medalist
Carmelita Jeter.But Felix wasn’t the only
woman to pick up hardwareon a great night for U.S. track.Brittney Reese, the two-timereigning world champion,won gold in the women’s longjump, while Lanisha Demuswon silver in the 400-meterhurdles.

Terrell Thomas was back at Gi-ants camp yesterday for thefirst time after news brokethat he had reinjured his sur-gically repaired right ACL.
The cornerback down-played the injury and said hehopes to be back in the threeto eight weeks doctors haveoutlined for recovery.
“I’m pretty sure I can goout there and run and practiceright now. I don’t think itwould be the smartest thing,”
Thomas said. “I think rightnow, since I did re-aggravateit, you just want to give it achance to heal and I think thebig picture is the season.”
That being said, Thomasdidn’t rule out being ready forWeek 1, which will come inthe season kickoff on Sept. 5.
“It’s definitely in my eyes,”he said. “I’m a competitor. If Ican get out there, I’m going tobe out there.”
Thomas, who was expected
to start at corner oppositeCorey Webster, tore the ACLin preseason last year. Thenews of complications wereworrisome, even to headcoach Tom Coughlin, but notto Thomas himself.
“I stayed positive and keptmy faith strong. I never gotmad. Last year, I was mad,”Thomas said. “I thank God forgiving me another opportuni-ty and I’m just happy to beback.” MARK OSBORNE

Seattle slewTerrell Owenscame to Seat-tle for a work-out and ran a4.43 forty atage 38. He leftwith a one-year deal. TOmay have strong straight-line speed, but football play-ers rarely run in straightlines. If he could play at anelite level, other teamswould’ve scooped him up.
CUFF LINKS: KNOWYOUR STAR BACKUPSNFL players (Marshawn Lynch,Justin Blackmon, Dez Bryant)have spent a lot of time inhandcuffs this offseason. Nowit’s time for fantasy owners tobreak them out.
Practicing properhandcuffing strategy can savea season, especially at a thinrunning back position. DarrenMcFadden owners thatprotected themselves by ros-tering Michael Bush last yearlaughed all the way to titles.Here are the keys to artfullyhandcuffing in 2012:
Backup caliber Doesn’t the old saying go “if abackup gets a carry but can’tplay, does anyone hear it?”The Raiders’ handcuff workedlast year because Bush is astarting-caliber back, capableof damage with 20 touches agame. The coaches didn’thave to abandon the
playbook, employ a commit-tee or go pass-heavy justbecause McFadden wentdown. The best handcuffs willbe clear feature backs in theevent of an injury.
Lock them up A running back’s caddyshould affect your draft strate-gy. For example, Arian Fosteris a better first-round pickthan Ray Rice because of the
backup situation. Ben Tate is abeast and would be a top-10option if Foster went down.Bernard Pierce is Rice’s back-up, but he’d be a weak part ofa committee if called upon.The Foster owner can snagTate in the middle rounds andsleep easy at night.
Best of the rest Tate is in a class by himself,but there are other must-cuffs.They include Rashad Jennings,a talented player operating asthe starter while MauriceJones-Drew holds out. Bush isnow in Chicago as Matt Forte’sclear backup. Peyton Hillis willpush for 25 touches if JamaalCharles (knee) sustains a set-back, and Isaiah Pead is an ex-citing rookie behind decliningSteven Jackson. David Wilson(Giants), Felix Jones (Cowboys)and Jason Snelling (Falcons)are all strong plays as well.
Draft Ben Tate and sleepeasy this fantasy season.
