Nation worries as stocks slideAt the end of the worst day for U.S. stocks since December 2008, traders wonderedwhether today would bring more pain. U.S. stocks plunged yesterday in the busiest session since the “flash crash” of May 2010. While the Dow fell more than600 points, the S&P 500 lost 6.66 percent to close at 1,119.46, just a few ticks shy ofthe day’s low — a sign that the selling may have not exhausted itself. {page 08}

Boston officials said subur-ban teenagers were behindthe boisterous behavior dur-ing a free concert at CityHall Plaza on Saturday.
With multiple fightsbreaking out, thousands ofbottles being thrown andpot smoke allegedly perme-ating Government Center,Chris Loh, spokesman forMayor Thomas Menino con-firmed that the Urban Mu-sic Festival may not be heldat City Hall anymore.
Loh said 10,000 morepeople than expected at-tended the show, most ofwhom were “teenagersfrom the suburbs.”
Boston Police spokesmanEddy Chrispin said “mini-mal amounts of drinkingoccurred” and most atten-dees were kids from thesuburbs who may haveshowed up drunk.
After several videos of
brawls between teens sur-faced Sunday and com-ments about the lack of po-lice supervision spurredconversation with city offi-cials, Menino said he mightback down on his annualstage of choice.
Menino met with BostonPolice Commissioner EdDavis to discuss the disrup-tion yesterday, after one rapartist described the incidentas “45k people rioting.”
According to a Metrocommenter, there was nopolice presence at the con-cert when she dropped herchild off at the show, andkids were allegedly drink-ing openly and smokingmarijuana near the stage.
Although police said no
arrests were made, some-one reported hearing gun-shots at the show, whichsent concert-goers fleeinginto the Downtown Cross-ing area and promptedmore police on scene.
Investigators found noevidence of gunshots, ac-cording to police reports.
Chrispin said there are3,000 employed officers inthe city, compared to the50,000 concert attendees,and officers cannot makean arrest for “everythingthat can happen.”
“If there had not beenpolice presence, the wholeconcert would have becomea riot and been out of or-der,” he said. “The fact ... is,there were no major riots orfights, with fights lastingonly 40 seconds.”

Dow falls morethan 600 points
US stock market tanks in first day of trading since credit rating downgraded from AAA Plunging prices a sword over economy Obama takes podium to try to reassure country
Plunging stock prices inthe wake of Standard &Poor’s decision to strip theUnited States’ top-tier AAAcredit rating may threatenconsumer confidence andcould push the frail econo-my into recession.
While analysts say thedirect impact on the econ-omy from the credit ratingdowngrade itself is limited,a sustained drop in shareprices would have a nega-tive impact on wealth —and likely force both con-sumers and businesses tohunker down.
Consumer spending ac-counts for about 70 percentof U.S. economic activityand analysts at Albion Fi-nancial Group estimate thedomestic stock market hasdropped by about 14 per-cent since July 25, wipingoff $1.93 trillion.
“This massive move inthe equity market does dimthe economic outlook for
the next six months,” saidCarl Riccadonna, senior U.S.economist at Deutsche Bankin New York. “We would putthe recession odds at about40 percent, and about twoweeks ago they were atabout a 10 percent chance.”
U.S. and global shareshave come under relentlessselling pressure since late Ju-ly as investors took a dimview of a nasty fight inWashington over raising thecountry’s debt ceiling and astring of weak economic da-ta around the world.
Adding to the stock mar-ket’s woes, S&P on Fridaycut the long-term U.S. cred-it rating by one notch toAA-plus on concerns aboutthe government’s budgetdeficit and rising debt bur-den. Stocks on Wall Streettumbled more than 5.0 per-cent on Monday, theirworst day since December2008 during the worst ofthe banking crisis. REUTERS
Obama:We’re stillan AAAcountryPresident Barack Obamayesterday blamed a down-grade in the United States’credit rating on politicalgridlock in Washington andsaid he would offer somerecommendations on howto reduce federal deficits.
Obama stopped short ofsharp criticism of Standard& Poor’s for its downgradeof U.S. debt to AA-plusfrom AAA on Friday. Senioradministration officialshave accused S&P of goingahead with the downgradedespite a $2 trillion mathe-matical error.
“Markets will rise andfall, but this is the UnitedStates of America. No mat-ter what some agency maysay, we have always beenand always will be a triple-A country,” Obama said.
Obama said in a WhiteHouse appearance that hehopes S&P’s downgrade ofU.S. debt will give U.S. law-makers a new sense of ur-gency to tackle long-termdeficit spending and saidhe did not believe the re-ductions could be carriedout with spending cutsalone. REUTERS

What happened? Credit rat-ing agency Standard &Poor’s lowered the U.S. gov-ernment’s credit rating. Thataffects long-term debt,which means governmentsecurities that have terms ofmore than one year.Why? S&P blamed politicaldeadlock in Washingtonthat threatens to keep thecountry from dealing effec-tively with its debt.What it means for marketsand the economy: The fearis that the downgrade willadd to building uncertaintyin the stock market over Eu-rope’s debt crisis and evi-dence the U.S. economy isweakening.

Lopez isn’tsitting aroundcrying, OK? While her split from MarcAnthony has been“painful,” Jennifer Lopez isreportedly feeling goodabout her decision to endtheir marriage, accordingto People magazine. “She isvery relieved to be out of[the marriage], frankly,”says a source. “I don’t think
she is sitting around cryingor wondering if she madethe wrong decision.” Infact, far from sitting down,she’s off to Atlanta — twinsin tow — to film her nextproject, “What to ExpectWhen You’re Expecting.”“For her, it’s back to busi-ness,” the source says. “Sheis all about her career.She’s excited to move on.”
The truthbehind ColeSimon Cowell is opening upabout exactly how CherylCole’s involvement with
the U.S. edition of “XFactor” fell apart. “Aftertwo cities, I offered her thejob, which initially she ac-cepted,” Cowell says,according to Radar Online.“And then unfortunatelywhen it went public, thenegotiations fell apart, so Ithought she would bemore comfortable doingthe U.K. show than theAmerican show. For certainreasons, [she] decided notto.” And while they havebeen friends for years, thelatest episode might have alasting impact: “She is stillgrumpy with me,” headmits.

Riders, contracts on whatkind of amenities are to beprovided for celebrities inorder to perform at a cer-tain venue, are nothing newin showbiz (check out oursidebar on the most outra-geous celebrity riders be-low). But Ciara, who is nowon tour, claims her rider is“very simple.”
“I love green tea orthroat coat or pepperminttea. Fiji water is a must. Ilike raw almonds in my rid-er as well, really just to keepit simple because before Igo on stage I don’t like toeat too heavy. I have a tooth-brush on there and tooth-paste and Dove soap,” shetold Metro on the red carpetat a concert at New York
City’s Beekman’s BeachClub, where she performedas part of the Radio Mali-boom Boom Station Inva-sion Tour. “Maybe when I goon my world tour next timearound, I might beef it up.But normally it’s about thecatering for me. The rider inthe room doesn’t reallymatter as much as the cater-ing. The good food is whereit’s at.” — Additional reportingby Meredith Engel.

This isn’t ‘Steven Seagal: Lawman’Esch, who goes by “Butter-bean” or “Bean,” was depu-tized about a year and ahalf before cameras cameto Walker County, Ala.,where he serves as a re-serve deputy sheriff.
“I did this because it’s myhometown,” he says, insist-ing the law enforcementjob isn’t a reality TV stunt.
“I live there,” he ex-plains. “I have kids thathave to grow up. I havegrandkids there. The rea-son I started helping Adam[Hadder, Butterbean’s bestfriend and partner on the
force] in the drug unit isbecause I want to make it abetter place, get rid of a lotof the drugs. If I can makea little bit of change in thetown that I live in, OK.”
He may be a former superheavyweight boxingchampion, but he doesn’twant to fight you“I’m a levelheaded guy,”says Butterbean. “Thefighters that have prob-lems [with people wantingto pick fights] are the oneswith the big egos. I mean,I use my brain. Your brainis what controls every-thing. You can talk to peo-ple like they’re humanbeings and don’t try tobully them around. Some-times you have to useforce. But use logic withthem, then they workpretty well.”
But he is actually fighting crimeWhen asked about themost dangerous situationhe had gotten into, Butter-bean cited house entries.
“Being a vice and nar-cotics unit, we do a lot ofsearch warrants [and] high-risk entries. And, ofcourse, that’s always prettydangerous,” says DeputyHadder. “We actually gotin a car chase during anepisode, and that’s never
that fun.”“The crazy thing,” adds
Butterbean, “is I wasn’tafraid because I have agreat team and theytrained me well and I real-ly had confidence in them.And hopefully they hadenough confidence in me,which I’m sure they did orthey wouldn’t let me bethere.”

Austin Wright is having ayear most authors can onlydream of. Not only is hisbook, “Tony and Susan,” abest-seller in Britain, butthis week, a major U.S. pub-lisher is publishing thework in the States with aprinting of 10,000 copies inhardcover.
Too bad he’s not aroundto witness it: Wright died in2003 at the age of 80.
Here is the very oddbackstory to “Tony and Su-san”: The thriller was firstreleased in 1993 to a smallpublishing house. It gar-nered critical acclaim, but
it failed to gain tractionwith readers. However,over in England, editor RaviMirchandani, who read theoriginal manuscript twodecades ago, just couldn’tforget it. So he decided toinvestigate what happenedto “Tony and Susan” anddiscovered the book wasout of print. The staff at hispublishing house loved it,they acquired the rights toit and went on to sell world-wide rights in 15 languages.
“I’ve never had this hap-pen,” says Jamie Raab, Pub-lisher of Grand Central,who bought the rights for
U.S. publication for its re-re-lease. “I read the book andthought it was amazing. Iwanted to be a part of intro-ducing it to a much largeraudience.”
Raab knows the wholetale is bittersweet.
“Unfortunately, [Wright]is not around to appreciateit and to enjoy its success,”says Raab. “But it’s just aseamless book and workson so many levels. I justhad to try to get it outthere.”
Rescued from thebook graveyard
An author is receiving an unexpected second chance this summer afterbeing out of print for nearly 20 years The rare story of ‘Tony and Susan’
The plot
So why did all of theseeditors fawn over “Tony andSusan” enough to resurrectit? Because it’s just so good.
Set up as a novel-within-a-novel, “Tonyand Susan”follows SusanMorrow, amild-man-nered college
teacher, as she reads a man-uscript her ex-husband mailsher, a chilling thriller of mur-der and revenge.
DOROTHY [email protected]
Wright, pictured right, was an English professor at the University of Cincinnati and author of seven novels, all of which fell out of print. Eight years after his death, his masterpiece, “Tony and Susan,” is being reissued to worldwide acclaim.
Writers, it’stime to exploreBook CountryMost how-to books on thecreative process tell writ-ers to stay far away fromthe time-suck that is theInternet. But Book Coun-try, a new online platform,lets new writers get expo-sure, motivation and, mostimportantly, feedback.
Focused on the genresof romance, fantasy, sci-fi, thriller and mystery,
mem- bers upload worksin pro-gress, explore andprovide notes aboutwork already posted,and discuss the businessand craft of writing.
“Traditionally, a writerhas to have a full manu-script before reviews arepossible,” says Molly Bar-
ton, president of the site.“With Book Country, hejust has to upload a fewchapters and he will beable to get feedback onhis work.”
Book Country also fo-cuses on reciprocity.Members are allowed toupload work only afterproviding reviews forthree other works.
There’s also anothercaveat, says Barton: “Awriter cannot ask hisfriends to join and givehis own work a ravingreview.” NICOLAS LIM

MM6 Maison Martin Margiela’scapsule collection with hip retailerOpening Ceremony finally hit stores
We talk to the creative powersbehind the coveted line
What areyour favoritepieces?Leon: “The outerwear ismy favorite. It’s so versa-tile. We are presenting itfor the fall collection,but I think you can wearthis all year. I thinkthere is something so
special about havingclothing that is so multi-purpose; I feel if youpack one piece, youcould have four outfits.For traveling, that’samazing. It feels reallymodern.”Rosso: “The jacket is sobeautiful, but the wholecollection is terrific.”

MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA
Coolx3Last Fashion Week,
editors raised theirprosecco glasses atthe news of a collab-
oration between OpeningCeremony, purveyors ofdowntown cool, and MM6Maison Martin Margiela,the sister brand to themain label created by enig-matic fashion rock starMartin Margiela. The col-lection, which hit storeslast week, is completely inline with Maison’s headydesign philosophy, includ-ing the “idea of recupera-
tion, transformation andreinterpretation.”
Translation: The lineconsists of 20 separates —with a twist. Based on athree-in-one concept, mostitems play double duty, ex-panding your wardrobewithout adding more clut-
ter. Unfasten the lining ofa jacket and you have an-other; with a slight tug,boots can be worn as knee-highs or ankle.
We sat down with Hum-berto Leon, co-founder ofOpening Ceremony, andRenzo Rosso, president of
Only the Brave (who in2002 became a majorityshareholder of MaisonMartin Margiela) to findout how your new travelwardrobe came together.
Whose genius idea was it?Leon: “I approached them.We do this thing where we
feature countries everyyear, and we decided to fea-ture France. The Maison isbased in Paris and itseemed like a perfect fit. How did the process work?Rosso: “We give it to our de-signers, the input, of whatwe wanted to do, theycame up with the design.After, we showed it to theOpening Ceremony peopleand they put their own vi-sion. They said, ‘This is notgood, this can be fantastic.’

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22. Unless youfollow through on whatever oppor-tunities are available to you, regard-less of how small or large theymight be, you won't be successful.
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 23. Just becauseyour first effort fizzles, you shouldn'tgive up too easily. If you're ready tokeep up the effort, your probabilitiesfor success will be greatly enhanced.
Scorpio Oct. 24-Nov. 22. Just be-cause someone isn't in total accordwith you, it doesn't mean she or hedoesn't think you're smart. Don't bedefensive; try to see the issue fromthis person's perspective.
Sagittarius Nov. 23-Dec. 21. Treat-ing others in a self-serving mannercould cause them to back off allright, but to what avail? They're aptto be reluctant to be your friend.
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19. An un-reasonable person can be turnedaround if you continually treat thisindividual with respect and courtesy,in spite of his or her behavior. Thecontrast will make your case.
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 19. If youare working on something impor-tant, be sure to monitor a co-workerwho usually does things in a hasty,careless manner.
Pisces Feb. 20-March 20. In orderto be effective, your priorities mustbe kept in proper order. Be sure youtake care of essential matters firstand save frivolous trifles until later,when all your work is done.
Aries March 21-April 19. When thegoing gets tough, you're likely to geteven tougher. You'll refuse to be in-timidated, but instead will welcomethe chance to prove just how re-silient and hardy you are.
Taurus April 20-May 20. Don'tshoot down a great idea just be-cause it doesn't come from you.Achieving something especiallygood should be more importantthan who thought of what.
Gemini May 21-June 20. Try not tobe too much of a spendthrift when itcomes to your resources. Just because it's easy to take money outof the bank doesn't mean it'll beeasy to put any back.

Another debtcrisis solutionTax refunds and Social Security are taken frompaychecks earned byworkers. The real debt solution is balance: cutswith revenue. But the Tea Party applies “TaxedEnough Already” only tothe richest 5 percent ofthe population, not themiddle class, so we havecuts without revenue, andnone for the rich. It’s doubly unbalanced. I havetwo better ideas: 1) TheAmericans-First Tax: Forevery job Big Business outsources overseas(which is “unpatriotic”),tax them triple an
American’s salary plus allbenefits. 2) The GiffordsTax: raise taxes on guns,bullets, clips, magazines,etc., but make gun safetydevices and smart-guntechnology tax-free.J. ANDREW SMITH, VIA E-MAIL
S&P downgradea wake-up callThere is good reason forStandard & Poors to down-grade Uncle Sam’s creditrating. They have onlysaid publicly what manyhave been thinking: thatboth the president andCongress on a bipartisanbasis failed in dealingwith our financial crisis.
At the end of the day, wewill increase our longterm debt from $14trillion to $16 trillion overthe next two years. Thepresident and Congresscan only identify modestcuts in the billions. Theypunted by setting up an-other joint House/Senatecongressional committeeto come up with morecuts later. Significant realcuts in spending havebeen put off until 2016.The simple answer to thebudget crises would havebeen a return to 2008spending levels. Thisshould have beenfollowed by a one for onebasis; cut a dollar in directspending for every dollar
you raise the debt ceiling.To add insult to injury,Congress has adjorned forthe rest of August whilethe crisis continues. LARRY PENNER, VIA E-MAIL

An island of your ownNantucket may be packed with
people all summer, but there areplaces you can go to get away
Though Nantucketswells to about fivetimes its year-roundpopulation during
the summer season, it ispossible to find areas onthe island that make itfeel like you’re the onlyone there. Or for a trulyexclusive feeling, you
could wait a few weeksfor what the islanders callthe “shoulder season,” thevery happy medium be-tween the crowdedtourism peak and theirdesolate winters.
If you can get into one of the12 rooms at the Union StreetInn, they can turn you into anisland insider within a day. Theinnkeepers supply guests withself-guided walking tours andlearned conversation that will
make you feel like you’re on afirst-name basis with anyonewho owns a local business.Plus, their rotating made-to-order breakfast menu demon-strates an understanding thatrunning a truly exceptionalbed and breakfast depends onpaying attention to both B’s.
Stay
While we’re on the topic ofdelicious food, American Sea-sons is a comfortably funkyeatery a few blocks away fromthe cobblestone hustle andbustle. Those in the know
take the extra walk to delightin chef Michael LaScola’s artis-tic menu choices. We can’trecommend enough theCrispy Pork Belly and SearedOctopus on a bed ofhomemade kimchee. If youlike the pig, you may want to
go to the island on the secondweek in October forHogtoberfest. Another topchoice for dining is Corazondel Mar with Mexican cuisineso authentic that it may finallydispel the myths of the islandas a lily-white enclave.

Speaking of unexpected,the Nantucket WhalingMuseum has taken whatcould have been anembarrassing relic of acruel and outdatedeconomic engine andturned it into an informa-tive and entertaining ex-perience. The island hascome to terms with itswhaling past and details itwith multimedia presenta-tions, weapon demonstra-tions and lively live narra-tion about how before theisland transitioned intotourism, it was for a brieftime the center of theworld.

The Patriots scored themost points in the NFL lastseason. And with essential-ly all of their productive of-fensive players returning,there’s no reason to be-lieve they can’t do it again.
New England sports fivelegit running backs; lookfor them to contribute in a“committee” fashion.
On the receiving end,the addition of ChadOchocinco — along withfull seasons of DeionBranch and Wes Welker —gives Tom Brady plenty ofterrific options.
The Pats took two run-ning backs — Steven Rid-ley and Shane Vereen —relatively high in thisyear’s draft, ending FredTaylor’s time in Foxbor-ough. But it looks likeKevin Faulk will hang onfor one more year, proba-bly in a teaching role.
Unless they put Faulkon IR or move someone tothe practice squad, SammyMorris seems to be the oddman out. There’s just noway the Pats keep six atthis position.
With the number of tal-ented backs and wide re-ceivers on the team, it’shighly unlikely BenJarvusGreen-Ellis hits the 1,000-yard mark again this year.
But is a 1,000-yard re-
ceiver out of the question?The Pats have a trio of
bona fide pass-catchers inOchocinco, Branch andWelker. But there’s a drop-
off after that “Big Three.”Julien Edelman and
Brandon Tate have shownflashes, but nothing consis-tent. But they’re still im-mensely valuable on puntand kick returns.
Taylor Price is a work inprogress, but Bill Belichickhas said he’s improved justabout everywhere since hisrookie campaign. Heshould see more time inthe field this season.
Matthew Slater is moreof a special teamer — and,even if kept, won’t seemuch time at wideout.

Signings give Pats anew flexibility on ‘D’
LARRY FRENCH/GETTY IMAGES
With the addition of Andre Carter — along with AlbertHaynesworth, Shaun Ellis and Mark Anderson — the Pats’D-line will present problems for opponents in 2011.
Bill Belichick was only toohappy to seize the opportu-nity to add Shaun Ellis tothe Patriots this week.
Not least because ofwhat he’s done to NewEngland in the past.
Ellis, signed at defensiveend along with AndreCarter, has 12 sacks in 15career games against thePats.
“Certainly Shaun hasplayed a lot of good foot-ball against us,” Belichicksaid yesterday. “He’s beena very productive player —he’s durable and very con-sistent. It seems like everytime we play him, he linesup there and we have ahard time with him.”
Carter, meanwhile, has66 sacks and 15 forcedfumbles in 10 seasons withSan Francisco and Wash-ington. Eleven of thosesacks came in 2009, thelast year the Redskins ran a4-3 defense.
“Last year when Wash-ington went to the 3-4 de-fense, it wasn’t a good fitfor him, evidently, in thatsystem,” Belichick said.“But we feel like ... we canuse his ability on the edgeand he can be effective.”
Translation: The Pats arebringing in moving parts— all the better to throwmultiple defensiveschemes at foes this year.
“How, strategically, wewant to move guys aroundand put them in certainalignments ... I thinkthere’s flexibility there,”Belichick said.
“Any player webring onto theteam, we feel likecan help our team.”PATRIOTS COACH BILL BELICHICK

Coira, who goes by “Leo,”won’t receive a salary andisn’t eligible to play forMadrid’s first team untilhe’s 16 years old.
