In raids in the metropolitan area yesterday, federal agents arrested at least eight people and charged them with heading a counterfeit products ring. Authorities say the ring has been smuggling into the country and then distributing massive quantities of fake brand-name goods manufactured in China, including Apple iPods, Major League Baseball and National Football League caps and Marvel comic books.

The counterfeits, which included millions of the phony Trojans, were sold for the past three years mainly in small discount stores in the area, as well as elsewhere in the country, including Texas and Virginia, according to court documents.

A spokeswoman for Church and Dwight, the company that manufactures the legitimate Trojan condoms in the United States, declined to comment on whether the counterfeit Chinese condoms could fail to prevent pregnancies or the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.

But a source familiar with the federal investigation said that while the counterfeit condoms were of inferior quality, samples had been tested and they were no riskier to use than legitimate ones.

In 2005, the average New Yorker emitted 0.67 tons of carbon from residential energy consumption, the 18th-lowest amount of 100 metro areas surveyed, according to yesterday’s Brookings Institution and Regional Plan Association report, which examined carbon emissions from transportation and residential sources. The average American emitted 1.16 tons.

“People have a right to know what they’re viewing,” Cuomo said at a news conference.

“The grim reality is that [show producer] Premier Exhibitions has profited from displaying the remains of individuals who may have been tortured and executed in China.”

There have long been rumors that the bodies are those of political prisoners.

“It’s either your life or the little boy’s life,” the bandit told Marzena Drus, 27, as she clutched Nicholas Anzivino on her lap, she said.

The shocking incident happened during a showing of “Speed Racer” at Loews Lincoln Square on Broadway at West 68th Street Tuesday afternoon, the nanny said.

“It was an action part and [Nicholas] was into the movie,” she said.

“Someone comes behind me and points a gun at me and says, ‘Hand me the purse!’ I said, ‘No!’ ”

The feisty Drus said the thief just reached over her and Nicholas and grabbed her purse.

“I had the gun pointed at my head,” she said. “Then he grabbed my purse and left.”

A theater manager recovered Drus’ empty purse nearby and offered her two free tickets.

Nicholas’ mom, Stephanie Anzivino, an investment banker at Merrill Lynch, was incensed.
