The head of the Anti-Defamation League saysOccupy Wall Street is notdoing enough to publiclycondemn the hate speechthat’s occasionally poppedup in their camps.
The incidents are isolat-ed: One man has beenspotted at Zuccotti Parktime after time, say pro-testers, holding a sign thatreads “Hitler’s Bankers —Wall Street,” while shout-ing “Jews control WallStreet.”
A second sign, possiblyfrom the same man, pro-claims “Zionists ControlWall Street.”
At Occupy Los Angeles, avideo surfaced of a womansaying, “I think the ZionistJews who are runningthese big banks ... need tobe run out of this country.”
Abraham Foxman, direc-tor of the Anti-Defamation
League, said he has re-ceived many calls com-plaining about the signs.
Protesters at ZuccottiPark yesterday said theydon’t support the anti-Se-mitic signs. BrendanBurke, a member of the de-escalation team, whichprotesters say is their non-violent security force, saidhe encourages protestersto simply ignore peoplewith hateful messages.
“If someone walksaround with a peace sign,that’s great,” said Burke.“If someone walks aroundwith an anti-Semitic sign,they’ll sow their own fate.
It’s free speech so I encour-age everyone, when theysee something like that,don’t be so instantly pro-voked by it.”
But Foxman wants to seethe demonstrators domore. “The good peoplewho are out there shouldspeak out and condemn itand remove it,” he said.
“They should comedown and speak outagainst it,” Burke said inresponse to Foxman. “Wehave a protest to run, socome on down.”
Protesters don’t support anti-Semitism popping up at New York and LA Occupy protests But Anti-Defamation League seeks stronger action
This video, posted Oct. 3, shows a man who was followed by protesters holding signs that read, “This man does not represent us,” in response to his message.

Just days after it was re-vealed that Park51 mosquedeveloper Sharif El-Gamalis in hot water regarding$1.7 million in unpaid rent,a source close to him sayshe’s gone off the deep end.
“Sharif’s gone AWOL,” afrustrated source, who wasonce close with the devel-oper, confided in Metro.“We don’t know what thef— he’s doing.”
In addition to the ConEdison lawsuit regardingthe $1.7 million rent dis-pute, El-Gamal and SohoProperties are facing atleast five civil lawsuits.
It was also reported thatEl-Gamal fell behind on his
property tax payments of$30,000 — and then al-legedly presented a fraudu-lent receipt to the NewYork Daily News whenthey inquired about it.
In an interview with theWall Street Journal, El-
Gamal said he is envision-ing hotels, condos, officespace, or even an exclusiveprivate club built on top ofthe mosque. It was a deci-sion that shocked manypeople close to him —even those that first ap-proved the communitycenter to be built.
Community Board 1chair Julie Menin said she’sbeen shut out by El-Gamal,and consequently, so hasthe community board thatonce heralded his vision foran Islamic community cen-ter in Lower Manhattan.

New York City police saythey are trying to rescueteens forced into prostitu-tion, only to find that thegirls often don’t want theirhelp.
A state law enacted lastyear considers prostitutesunder the age of 18 vic-tims, not criminals, and po-lice are encouraged not tocharge them with a crime.
But according to Inspec-tor James Capaldo, head ofthe NYPD’s new anti-sextrafficking division, theirefforts to help girls forcedinto prostitution are oftenspurned, he told the CityCouncil at a hearing on sextrafficking yesterday.
The teens are often ter-rified of being punished bytheir pimp, or they’rebrainwashed into thinkinghe is a boyfriend, said Ca-paldo. They also often lieand say they are 19.
“Sometimes they refuse
to talk,” he said. “If it takesa man six weeks to put thiswoman in a situation, howdo we undo that in 46hours?”
The teen prostitutes of-ten advertise their illegalservices on Backpage.com,according to the Brooklyndistrict attorney’s office.
Earlier this year, inBrooklyn, a tip led police to“Jennifer,” 18, who refusedto testify against her pimp.Instead, prosecutors foundhim through a prostitutionwebsite. He was chargedwith sex trafficking.
Teen prostituteshard to save, coptells City Council
1,700The NYPD has arrested1,700 prostitutes thisyear, Capaldo said. Lastyear, 63 minors werearrested andprosecuted as adults,according to the LegalAid Society.
More than 60 minors were arrested for prostitution last year in New York City.

An Ohioan collector ofbears, lions and dozens ofexotic animals allegedlyfreed them before killinghimself yesterday. TerryThompson kept the crea-tures in small pens and fedhis lions meat from mal-nourished horses, an ani-mal welfare expert said.
“When he was chargedwith animal neglect, therewere complaints that hewasn’t feeding his horsesenough. ... When theywould die, he would feedthem to the lions,” saidLarry Hostetler, executivedirector of the MuskingumCounty Animal Shelter.
“We’ve been trying toget him shut down since2003,” Hostetler said,adding that authoritieshad made several visits toThompson’s farm since2004 and found underfedanimals with open sores.
Thompson, 61, wasfound dead at the farm
from an apparently self-in-flicted gunshot wound.Sheriff’s deputies shot andkilled most of the 50-oddlions, tigers, bears and oth-er big animals he set loosefrom their pens. A monkeywas still at large as of lastnight, the MuskingumCounty Sheriff said.
Thompson was releasedlast month from federalprison on a firearms con-viction; agents raided hisfarm in June 2008 andfound 133 guns. Court doc-uments showed that hetold an informant he dealtguns illegally after givingup his license five yearsearlier.
Thompson’s wife caredfor the animals during hisabsence, Hostetler said.REUTERS

Greece’s parliament gaveinitial approval yesterday toa new round of belt-tighten-ing needed to avert default,despite violent protests dur-ing the biggest rally in twoyears against the bitterly re-sented measures.
Hours after Greek po-lice clashed with black-clad demonstrators out-side parliament, all 154 ofthe ruling Socialist PASOKparty’s lawmakers voted infavor of the measures,which must secure a sec-ond vote today before thenew wave of austerity isenforced.
The view of the ancientAcropolis was obscured bysmoke from burning pilesof rubbish and a bank
building was evacuated af-ter being set on fire bypetrol bombs as a strikecalled by Greece’s twomain unions degeneratedinto violence outside par-liament.
“It’s one of the biggestdemonstrations in recentyears,” said Mary Bossis, in-ternational security profes-sor at the University of Pi-raeus. “People showed theywere determined to protestagainst these policies.”
After repeated rounds ofausterity measures, whichhave hit middle classGreeks hard, protesterssaid new cuts would onlydrive the stricken economydeeper into the ground.Unions urged deputies notto pass the law.
Trapped in the fourthyear of deep recession,which few now believe canbe paid back, Greece hassunk even deeper into cri-sis. REUTERS

Tuesday’s GOP debate con-firmed it: A new force —the Herminator — has en-tered U.S. politics. Pizza en-trepreneur Herman Cain,once dismissed as a politicaljoke, is the surprise Repub-lican front-runner.
Recent polls show Cain,the former CEO of Godfa-ther’s Pizza, ahead of pre-sumptive Republican nom-inee Mitt Romney. That’s agigantic leap for Cain, aman with almost no politi-cal experience or namepower, who began his cam-paign with a tiny warchest.
But the fact that Cain isso different from the other
Republican candidatesworks in his favor. He’s theoutsider who speaks bluntlyand presents unconvention-al ideas. Though his 999 tax
plan, which would slash theincome tax rate to 9 per-cent, has been condemnedby tax experts, it has be-come the campaign’s mostrecognized policy proposal.
By contrast, Mitt Rom-ney has statesman-likelooks and a well-fundedcampaign, but has beenunable to formulate hispolicies in a catchy way.Rick Perry, another pre-sumed front-runner, hasdamaged his campaignwith a number of seriousgaffes. And Michele Bach-man has seen her Tea Partysupporters defect to theHerminator camp.
Even so, the political
elite doesn’t view Cain, aBaptist pastor and part-time radio host, as a seri-ous contender. And as a lib-ertarian Republican, hehasn’t endeared himself tohis fellow African-Ameri-cans. Singer Harry Bela-fonte recently called Cain,the son of a cleaning-woman and a janitor fromTennessee, a “false Negro.”
Most likely, Cain won’twin the Republican nomi-nation. But Mr. Straight Talkwill have set a new tone inthe Republican Party.

Herman Cain gets saucy at the Republican debate.
Romneyfights backLAS VEGAS. A confident MittRomney criticized his Re-publican rivals and fendedoff attacks on Tuesday at afeisty debate that couldhelp reinstall him as theparty’s presidential front-
runner.Romney, the former
Massachusetts governor,slugged it out with TexasGov. Rick Perry and over-shadowed Herman Cain,his two main challengersfor the nomination to takeon President Barack Oba-ma in 2012. But Perryshowed signs of life after
four shaky debates andCain suffered no knockoutblows.
Seeking to convinceskeptical conservatives toget behind him, Romneyfought off attacks from Per-ry, who brought up an oldcharge that he hired illegalimmigrants to cut his lawn.
“Texas has had a 60 per-
cent increase in illegal im-migrants in Texas. If there’ssomeone who has a recordas governor with regards toillegal immigration thatdoesn’t stand up to muster,it’s you, not me,” he said.
Polls show Romney hasthe best chance of any Re-publican of defeating Oba-ma. REUTERS

THEWORDMetro’s Dorothy Robinson shares her take on the world of gossip @dorothyatmetro [email protected]
Trying to figure out LindsayLohan’s many legal infrac-tions is like trying to re-member all the Duggarkids: There are just toomany to count.
Yesterday the actress gotinto even more troublewhile at her progress re-port hearing in Los Ange-les, Calif. Judge StephanieSautner scoffed at the lackof hours put toward hercourt-ordered communityservice and suspended Lo-han’s probation. Her bailwas set at $100,000 (whichLohan quickly paid); and toadd insult to injury, shewas handcuffed before shewas taken into custody.But before Lohan evenwalked into a courtroom
yesterday, Judge Sautnerordered that she be takenoff her community serviceassignment at the RedCross and focus instead onthe 120 hours of work shemust complete at thecounty morgue, accordingto TMZ. She will apparent-ly be cleaning tables whereautopsies are performed,the site reports. She’ll alsobe doing basic custodialduties like sweeping floors,cleaning toilets and empty-ing the trash.
Just to help refresh yourmemory, Lohan’s currentlegal problems stem fromher 2007 drunk-drivingconviction and a jewelrytheft conviction earlierthis year.

Wolverine asJames Bond?Hugh Jackman says he wasconsidered to take overthe role of James Bond be-fore it ultimately went toDaniel Craig. “I got a callfrom my agent saying,‘There is some possible
interest in you for Bond.Are you interested?’ Atthe time, I wasn’t,” Jack-man says, according toTotal Film. “I was aboutto shoot ‘X-Men 2,’ and‘Wolverine’ had becomethis thing in my life. Ididn’t want to be doingtwo such iconic charac-
ters at once.” Still,should anything happento knock Craig out of therole, Jackman still wantsto be considered. “Ithink every male atsome point thinks aboutplaying James Bond,” hesays. “So it was not rightthen, but it may be right
if it comes back.”The singing and danc-
ing Jackman as Bond?Yes, please! It’s abouttime to have a Bond whocan shoot darts out of hiscuff links whilethrowing down a tapdancing routine at thesame time.

Of course, “out there”doesn’t exactly mean“sold,” but it’s still a figurethat gives some hope tothe Android tablet market.For comparison, Apple hassold more than 40 millioniPads to date.

Three albums in andMetronomy, the electro-pop quartet based inBrighton, England, are onlynow getting name recogni-tion in the U.S. and in theirnative country. The secondpart is especially odd, be-cause earlier this year theyreceived a Mercury Prizenomination (the U.K. equiv-alent to a Grammy) fortheir latest album, “TheEnglish Riviera.” But front-man and Metronomy mas-termind Joseph Mount is
philosophical about thenewfound fame.
“Certainly with the Eng-lish music press, you some-times need to prove yourworth,” he says. “Somebands get this massive hype
from the beginning, andthen other bands just haveto stick at it until people re-alize you’re not going tojust disappear. I guess it justfeels like it’s the right timefor people to feel like they
can get behind it a bitmore.”
All the adoration may al-so be due to the fact thatMount and his bandmateshave put together a palat-able pop album that fuses
Metronomy’s characteristi-cally clicky synths withdanceable beats andsingable melodies. Mount isa natural tinkerer, havingmade the band’s last two al-bums largely on his own.
“They were all homerecorded,” he says of thefirst two albums, “I justthought at that pointmaybe it would’ve been astrange decision to keepmaking it that way,” hesays, adding that two newbandmates also allowed for
an expansion of range.“You go on the stage and
you’re kind of aware ofwhat kinds of songs youcould add to the set tomake it a bit more dynam-ic,” Mount says. “But whenit comes down to it, I’mkind of stuck in this way ofwriting since the beginning— which is just like, sittingdown alone in a room witha computer.”

Frontman of electro-pop outfit Metronomy discussesthe solitary nature of his songwriting process Why theband’s blowing up now, after their third album release

Mount on how U.K. radiostations determine the success of bands:
“There’s this radio station in
England, BBC Radio One,that has this iron grip on thesuccess of bands. 6 Musicstarted as this alternative toRadio One, but after a whileit ended up being the same... where it’s in charge of
breaking bands and if youare on 6 Music, then you aremore likely to get on RadioOne. They’ve got playlistslike Radio One. ... So theyget behind new bands. … It’s all corrupt.”
Mount says adding members to Metronomy was a start for expanding the sound. The band will play a sold-out show at the Music Hall of Williamsburg tonight.

‘South Ward’ makes its presence known at Red Bull Arena Bring European atmosphere to New Jersey Red Bulls face Union in key match
Living in the WardAnthony Poulin servesas co-president of theESC, the largest of thethree supporters clubsin the South Ward andthe oldest of the bunch.On game day, he is usu-ally hoarse somewherearound halftime. Amild-mannered attor-ney by day, Poulinsheds the shirt and tieto transform into ascarf-wearing, chantingmaniac for 90 minutes.
“What first strikesyou is just how muchfun it is, and how dif-ferent it is than beingat most other sportingevents,” Poulin said.“It’s not watching thegame and cheering —it’s also a feeling of ac-tually being a part ofthe game itself, likesomehow your songsand enthusiasm is aninvisible force helpingthe team.” METRO/KD
Bleacher Creatures moveaside; you’ve got company.Meet the “South Ward.”
The fans sitting in thebleachers of Yankees Stadi-um are notorious for theirrhythmic clapping andchanting of players’ names.
But there is a huge differ-ence between these Yan-kees fans and the wall ofsound that comprises the
“South Ward” at Red BullArena.
Located behind the southgoal at Red Bull Arena, thethree sections of seats arenever actually sat in. In-stead, the Garden State Sup-porters Club, the EmpireSupporters Club and theViking Army fill these sec-tions every home gamewith the brash support
unique to the New York-area. And they stand allgame long, for 90 minutes.
But it is rarely standingstill.
“We have members fromall over the world and walks
of life and that is a big influ-ence of our style,” said HopeMcCarty, a native of Elm-wood Park, N.J., and a mem-ber of the Garden State Sup-porters and the VikingArmy. “This is a universalsport, and to me, we allspeak the same language.”
The South Ward, with the Viking Army at center, is making a name for itself at Red Bull Arena.
Big East CommissionerJohn Marinatto’s keynoteaddress at the Big EastConference Men’s Basket-ball Media Day yesterdaywas simple — the confer-ence has a storied historyand its future is bright.
The head coaches —most much bigger starsthan Marinatto — weren’tso sure.
“Why the hell have aleague? Why don’t we allgo independently? I thinkthere’s a point of [oversatu-ration],” West Virginiacoach Bob Huggins said.“When you have all theseteams, TV dictates that youplay somebody twice. A lotof times, the best team re-ally doesn’t win the regu-lar season and they reallyshould. I understand theother part. I understandhow money goes.”
Marinatto sold the com-pany line.
“The leadership of ourconference is workinghard to solidify and, in-deed, improve the long-term future of the Big EastConference. There is a glo-rious past to consider. Aswe plan for the future,
nothing is going to happento that legacy,” he said.
Syracuse and Pitts-burgh, picked to finishfirst and fourth respective-ly in the coaches’ poll,have already announcedthey’re leaving for the ACConce their 27-month no-tice is up.
“My problem is not with
them leaving,” Louisvillecoach Rick Pitino said. “Myproblem is you did it in 48hours. Don’t run awaywith a girl after one date ...You’ve been dating thiswoman for 30 years; showa little respect.”

Will the top players attheir respective positionssustain production?
1 Fred Jackson,RB, BUF —F-Jax won’tfinish theyear as the No. 1 RB,but he’ll be in the top-5. As the weather dete-riorates, the Bills willlean on him evenmore.
2 CalvinJohnson,WR, DET— Mega-tron is on pace for 24touchdowns. He willend up with around 18.
3 JimmyGraham,TE, NO —The scarypart is thatthe ex-hoopster is stilllearning football. Anevery-week mismatch,he’ll only get better.
Keep it up
In a surprising turn of events, Car-son Palmer, Brandon Lloyd andMike Sims-Walker will all bepulling on new uniforms come
Sunday. Let the adjustments begin.
Which Carson?Between 2004 and 2006, Palmer wasone of the best quarterbacks in theNFL. Since then, he’s been a shell ofhimself thanks to elbow and kneeinjuries. While the Raiders are bet-ting that Palmer will return to form,fantasy owners shouldn’t be. Lookfor the Raiders to ride DarrenMcFadden and Michael Bush,
leaving Palmer as a weak QB2.
Reunited and excitedWide receivers are dependant onquarterback and scheme. BrandonLloyd was in a horrible spot for bothas a Bronco. Now that he’s in St.Louis, he’s reunited with pass-happyoffensive coordinator JoshMcDaniels. Lloyd gets a majorupgrade, and so does Eric Decker.He’ll be Tim Tebow’s No. 1option.
MSW, Part IIMike Sims-Walker averaged3.07 catches for 40.1 yards withthe Jags last year. Expecting any-thing more than that with BlaineGabbert at the helm is silly.
The NFL’s trading deadline isusually as exciting as a Joe Pa-terno game plan. Not this year.
pension in Week 8 whenthe Bengals face the Sea-hawks. Bernard Scott willmake a cameo as the fea-ture back, but isn’t a greatoption against Seattle’sunderrated run defense.
RB, Cowboys With Felix Jones (ankle) out2-4 weeks, Murray is the primary early-down back inan explosive offense.
Maurice Morris
RB, LionsMorris, not Ronnie Brown,will be the lead back whenJahvid Best misses time dueto another concussion.
Fred Davis
TE, RedskinsDavis was featured lastweek even before Chris Coo-ley went down. Now he’llpush for 10 targets/game.
PALMER, LLOYD MOVING
Carson Palmer’s arm strength and mobility are question marks.
