Inqlings: For Manuel, a job he can phone in

As if he doesn't have enough on his plate,

Charlie Manuel

will now do talk radio.

The Phillies skipper has been drafted to call in to Michael Smerconish's talk show on WPHT-AM (1210), the team's flagship station, at 8 a.m. Mondays starting tomorrow. Also new this season, WPHT and WIP-AM (610) will simulcast Sunday games from May until Labor Day.

Speaking of the Phillies on this opening day, the team has dreamed up yet another way to raise green.

Phils marketer Scott Brandreth tells me the team is prepping mementos out of scraps from Citizens Bank Park. The clubhouse carpeting, replaced over the winter, is being chopped into 2-by-3-foot squares, which will be adorned with players' numbers and World Series patches and fashioned into doormats. Old padding from the dugout railings and centerfield wall will be cut into sections and sold, as will the netting along the foul poles.

Expect to see the face of

Dorothy Krysiuk

, whose decade doing TV traffic reports ended in October at Fox29. She has signed a promotional deal with West German BMW in Fort Washington, says

Bob Cesarini

, the dealership's general manager. Her role has not been determined. Krysiuk, who drives a 3 Series Coupe, is a longtime customer.

Jamie Foxx

played a D.A. in the just-wrapped-in-Philly movie,

Law Abiding Citizen

, and he's getting a taste of the justice system. A police report says the actor was stalked by a man who showed up at the door of his penthouse suite at the AKA Philadelphia on Rittenhouse Square.

There's more to this story: Records indicate that suspect Steven Taliver, 49, had been released from jail only a day or two before he allegedly tried to push his way in after claiming he was Beyoncé's producer. Though the police report does not list a date of the confrontation, news reports peg it at March 20.

Taliver, whose record of at least 15 arrests began a month after he turned 18, was held in the city's Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility on March 18 after he was picked up on a bench warrant. Taliver had skipped court after his arrest on a 2006 auto-theft charge, records show. The bench warrant was withdrawn after Taliver got a June 9 court date, and he was released March 19.

The suspect returned to the hotel the morning of March 22 and was ushered out. After he returned Tuesday, a private security guard identified him to police, who arrested him. Taliver awaits a preliminary hearing Tuesday on stalking and related charges.

It is not clear how Taliver knew Foxx was staying in the hotel or how he got in the first time, although I hear he may have made a food delivery there.

The story broke on TMZ.com on Thursday, the day after Foxx left town. On their way out, Law Abiding Citizen producers gave $6,500 to a Philadelphia police fund for fallen officers.

Guess who's appearing in

The Last Airbender

.

Katharine Houghton

, who famously brought

Sidney Poitier

home to dinner in 1967, was spotted stepping off the plane last week at PHL as the cast and crew of the

M. Night Shyamalan

action flick returned from shooting in Greenland. Houghton plays the grandmother of Katara (

Nicola Peltz

).

James L. Brooks and company have opened a Center City production office for the film How Do You Know? - though Philly has not been given the green light, says Greater Philadelphia Film Office head Sharon Pinkenson. Boston is still officially in the running. Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, Owen Wilson, and Bill Murray are named to the comedy, about two guys chasing the same girl. Assuming the light changes, shooting will start in June.

Why was Jeff Daniels gruff to handlers while picking up the Artistic Achievement Award at the Philadelphia Film Festival/Cinefest '09 for The Answer Man? He told festival organizer Thom Cardwell that his eight-performance-a-week role in God of Carnage on Broadway - for which he got the day off Monday - was emotionally and physically draining. So there.

Economy-driven shake-ups last week at Beasley Broadcast's Philly stations. Country WXTU (92.5) broke up the

Evans & Andie

morning show, shedding 10-year veteran

Scott Evans

. Starting tomorrow,

Kris Stevens

moves from afternoons to join

Andie Summers

.

Razz

, the night-timer, will fill Stevens' 2-to-7 p.m. shift. The night shift has not been filled. Also, WXTU's longtime program director,

Bob McKay

, bowed out.

Leo Baldwin

, PD at contemporary-hit station Wired 96.5, will program both. This follows last month's release of Wired general manager

Lynn Bruder

, meaning WXTU general manager

Natalie Conner

leads both stations. Also, Wired morning-show sidekick

Krieger

was let go.

Classic-hits WOGL (98.1) has hired former Q102 night-timer Joe Mama for weekend/fill-in. Program director Anne Gress says "Big Ron" O'Brien recommended Mama for a job shortly before he died a year ago.

How's this for motivation? Rep.

Patrick Murphy

(D., Pa.) will address kids at the Ed Snider Youth Hockey Foundation's training camp Wednesday at the Wachovia Spectrum. Murphy played center for the hockey team at King's College in Wilkes-Barre.

Folk-rocker Janis Ian lunched unrecognized Friday at the Melrose Diner. Ian, who lived in Old City 40 years ago, was in town to play the Dennis Flyer Memorial Theatre on the Camden County College campus in Blackwood.

Collingswood writer

Vicki Glembocki

will turn up tomorrow on

Oprah

(4 p.m., 6ABC) as part of a videoconferenced panel of six women discussing "The Secret Lives of Moms." Producers found Glembocki through her book

The Second Nine Months

, which came out in paperback in January. Glembocki tells a story about new motherhood: Last year, while she was driving with husband

Thad Henninger

and two sleeping children, nature called. Rather than risk waking the kiddies up with a stop, "I pulled a diaper out of the diaper bag," Glembocki says. "I'm continuously amazed by the things I do in the face of motherhood."
