Salute to Hugh Jackman

Two weeks after Hurricane Sandy, New Yorkers are still in need. The official death toll rose to 43, and the storm caused an estimated $50 billion in property damage and economic losses in the Northeast. Your life may have returned to normal, but there are many New Yorkers who still need our help. Please go here to see information about how to help. Here’s our weekly round-up…

Someone had to provide some well needed distraction from our woes: Leave it to James Bond to take us on a thriller of a ride. Skyfall opened this past weekend to a Bond-record-breaking take of $87.8 million.
Stephanie LaCava has a book coming out next month described as a “haunting collection of illustrated narratives about coming of age as an outsider”.

Fame Game Highlight of the Week: Eyebeam

It has been a difficult two weeks for Eyebeam. Like many New Yorkers, they were inundated with water which filled their entire ground floor and caused severe damage to the building. They also lost much of their archives, computers and other electronic equipment, and all the ground floor furniture. They are estimating that the damage will cost between $200,000 and $250,000, depending on how much they can salvage.

Thanks to the overwhelming support of volunteers, their building is now clean. However, they still need your help. Donate to Eyebeam today and help replace destroyed equipment, rescue what remains of the archive, and enable them to reopen and continue their groundbreaking work of fifteen years. For information on our upcoming events, please visit eyebeam.org.

Fountain House Fall Fete

Grand Opening of the New Parrish Art Museum

More than 2 million New Yorkers are without power as of this writing. Frankenstorm was a doozy, no question about that. If you were like many of us social media addicts, you were following the blow by blow on Twitter and Facebook. Even without power, New Yorkers found a way to keep their phones charged and connected via Twitter.

@IvankaTrump: educating us on the origin of the phrase “hunkering down” (from the Scandinavian word “huka”)
@HilariaBaldwin: plugging her coverage of the storm for ExtraTV and posting about volunteer opportunities for the cleanup
@SonjatMorgan: wondering why filling your tub with water is an important storm precaution
@Bethenny (Bethenny Frankel): passing the time with SkinnyGirl cocktails and posting photos of Hamptons ocean surges
@Hamptons (Hamptons.com): sharing the best photos of Sandy’s impact on Hamptons beaches and towns
@DoriCooperman: talking hotels as her downtown friends moved into the Four Seasons and the Regency
@macklowe (Julie Macklowe): listing items to pack in her tornado bag
@DerekBlasberg: pondering why the movie “The Day After Tomorrow” wasn’t on TV
@UncleRUSH (Russell Simmons): sending prayers and meditating for everyone’s safety

Dirty Secrets Michael Rosen Exhibition Opening

MCNY Director’s Council New York After Dark 2012

As the New York Post put it, “Is nothing sacred in this town?” New Yorkers are nervous to talk in cabs after a hack recorded Paris Hilton talking about gays and released the tape on the Internet. Of course, you may not be lucky enough to get a taxi driver who isn’t busy illegally talking on his phone himself. It all sounds too reminiscent of HBO’s “Taxicab Confessions“. But beware, whatever you say in a cab might end up broadcast to the world. Here’s your weekly round up…

Yesterday was National Voter Registration Day. Have you registered to vote? If you haven’t, maybe Rachel Zoe can convince you in this video spot.

Du Jour Magazine Launch Party at Capitale

Donna Karan Connecting the Dots on FNO 2012

Einstein on the Beach at BAM

“50 Shades of Grey” is no longer the reigning #1 bestseller on Amazon… It has taken a book about the commando raid on Osama Bin Laden, “No Easy Day“, to unseat the BDSM erotica novel from its 26 week streak. And “No Easy Day” won’t even be in stock on Amazon until September 7th. But don’t expect to see UES women sneaking around with it in their Birkin bags! Here’s your weekly round up…

Google CEO Eric Schmidt has apparently moved on from former gal pal Lisa Shields. He is now dating concert pianist Chau-Giang Nguyen.
So much speculation: Does Pippa Middleton’s visit to Andre Balazs’s Sunset Beach make them an item? Supposedly they flirted over ping pong.
Model and social media maven Coca Rocha is the toast of the town in her brilliant portrayal in the New York Times.
