Part of Levi Johnston's "Playgirl" photo shoot probably took place at the Cooper Square Hotel
The tweet showed up few hours ago...
In case you've been following this story.... Anyway, maybe this isn't even the real Twitter account for the 19-year-old father of Sarah Palin's grandson.

Police presence on the Bowery
BoweryBoogie had a report yesterday about a man who was shot on the Bowery near Bleecker early Saturday morning.
The Post had a little more on the incident in today's paper:
On Saturday morning, there was a strong police presence...
...to set up pylons for the street construction on First Street and the Bowery that blocked traffic for much of the day....
The Post had a little more on the incident in today's paper:
A gunman opened fire early yesterday on the Lower East Side, wounding two men.
The victims, both in their 30s, were shot on the Bowery near Bond Street at about 4:40 a.m., police said. One was hit in the leg, the other in the arm.
Both were treated at Bellevue Hospital -- but refused to cooperate with investigators looking into what sparked the shooting.

Sorry that I missed the most-important news story of the weekend -- or maybe ever
According to the Post: Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth claimed yesterday to have gotten its hands on a leaked script for "Sex and the City 2." Here's what they say happens:
* The situation looks bleak for Bradshaw, whose marriage with Mr. Big unravels after they lose everything in a financial scam.
* Seeking work, Mr. Big ends up in London, where he's living in a rundown apartment, but cheats on Carrie — who dumps him before finding out she's pregnant.
* Miranda quits her law practice after getting sued. She and her husband Steve decide to open a restaurant.
* Besides the characters' heavy financial losses, tough times in the real world will also be reflected in the film's wardrobe choices, which an unnamed production insider says will be "less over-the-top but still stylish."
Fun!
Twas six weeks before...
Not really ready for the holidays...which may be why I didn't even notice that holiday lights went up last week on East Fourth Street and East Third Street...(and probably elsewhere too...)

From Page Six today:
New York's homeless could be kept warm this winter in expensive furs owned by Ruth Madoff -- if PETA has its way. The anti-fur campaigners have written to US Marshal Roland Ubaldo asking for the Madoff skins to be donated to the homeless. More than 100 Madoff items will be sold off today at the Sheraton New York to reimburse the Ponzi scammer's thousands of vic tims. PETA's Dan Mathews said in a letter to Ubaldo, "By donating them to the homeless, you'd be able to highlight the difference between need and greed."
Report: "the tide seems to be turning for young galleries of the East Village and Lower East Side"
Bloomberg News had this report the other day:
Wandering around Manhattan’s scruffy Lower East Side galleries, I kept hearing three words rarely uttered in the more polished Chelsea district these days: Everything is sold.
The global financial crisis punctured the art bubble last year, drying up cash and driving up caution. Now the tide seems to be turning for young galleries of the East Village and Lower East Side.
“It’s like the Dow,” said art dealer Simon Preston, who runs a gallery on Broome Street. “When it goes down, people are looking for new markets.”

First film set for Theatre 80: "The Brooklyn Heist" opens Nov. 27
Lorcan Otway checks in with news of the first film to be screened at Theatre 80 on St. Mark's Place....
"Projectors in, screen up, a few of us watched a film last night, great sight lines, even from the front side seats, as the screen is set back about fourteen feet or more, (I'll have to measure and let you know...) image looks wonderful... so here is the news about the opening..."
“The Brooklyn Heist” will be released on Nov. 27. From the press materials:
Desperate to improve his life, New Yorker Fitz concocts a scheme to rob a wealthy and hated pawnshop owner. Unknown to Fitz, his gang of cheerful incompetents faces competition from two other crews who plan to hit the joint on the same night. Each group has a unique, hilarious style in this satire on heist capers that uses stylish cinematography, editing and art direction to explode filmic stereotypes. A stellar cast including Danny Masterson (“That ’70s Show”), Leon (“Get Rich or Die Tryin’”) and Dominique Swain (“Lolita”) brings to life this stylish spoof of the beloved heist comedy genre.
