Wiseguy's wisdom Ex-mobster offers tips to legit bizmen
His new book, \"Mob Rules: What the Mafia Can Teach the Legitimate Businessman\" (Portfolio/Penguin), which hit shelves yesterday, offers a series of worthwhile, sometimes humorous tips on how to succeed in business through techniques used by members of what he calls \"the longest-running corporation in history\" - aka the Mafia. A Yeah. Some of the most successful guys could slide into a real company and be CEO if they just had the educational background. I won't name names, but there's one guy I worked for who was real sharp and actually dumbed it down for the bosses so he wouldn't offend anybody. Guys like [John Gotti] were real tough, but they had intellect, and that's how they got to be who they were.

Infiltrado na máfia
Estrela da série \"No mundo do crime\", que estreia quinta, às 23h10, no Discovery Channel, Louis Ferrante conhece bem como é a vida fora da lei. Aos 12 anos, já participava de roubos de carros no distrito do Queens, em Nova York, onde nasceu e foi criado. Passar a sequestrar caminhões de carga foi um caminho natural: - Minha mãe me via chegar em casa com um BMW e perguntava: \"O que você está fazendo?Você está partindo o meu coração.\" Ela sabia que eu estava envolvido em alguma coisa errada. - Falei de igual para igual com eles. Disse que tinha passado anos na prisão, que já havia roubado, que já estive na posição deles e que não estava lá para julgá-los. Acho que, por isso, eles ficaram à vontade comigo.

QUEEN`S QUEENS Help Wanted: Mayor. Good Job, High Pay, Perks
[Louis Ferrante], 24 and from Flushing, was arrested soon after his new rap song - \"Justice Not Found: The [John Gotti] Story\" - made its way into record stores and started becoming a cult hit. The rap pays homage to Gotti and paints him as an innocent man railroaded by the feds. Ferrante, who Nassau cops say committed the crimes in 1987, says it wasn't him. WHAT'S MORE: More than once, we've talked about the frustrations of living in a place where a pizza can get to your house faster than the cops. But there are also some really good cops who do a terrific job. The folks from the Queens County Dental Society called here to praise officers James Tierney and Anthony Pascal of the 107th Precinct after their Jamaica Estates headquarters was broken into recently. The officers noticed the building had been broken into in the dead of night and then tracked down society officials from literature in the office . . . Hungry? Queens Borough President Claire Shulman has put out a restaurant guide covering some of the borough's eateries. Copies are free and available at Borough Hall, 120-55 Queens Blvd. in Kew Gardens.
