Favorite email of the day: Jonah Green, video producer at New York Magazine, and Sam Henig, a writer for Newsweek and Slate are throwing a Sarah Palin look-alike contest/party this weekend. The contest will be judged by Max Short of GQ and catapults these three into my heart. Their email below:
What an inspiration. If not as a leader, then at least as a fashion icon. The hair! The glasses! The cute gun accessorizing!
In honor of McCain’s vice presidential pick, join us this Saturday for “Palin Comparison,” a Sarah Palin look-alike contest. Be creative: if you don’t have thick brown hair and Tina Fey glasses to work with, perhaps you have a freshly slaughtered moose, or a special needs baby. And what’s a hockey mom (aka pitbull with lipstick) without a few hockey players?
-
So come to Arrow at 85 Avenue A between 5th and 6th streets at 10pm this Saturday, Sept 6, in your best Palin garb. Let loose your closeted GOP fetish, your secret hunting lust, your inner sexy librarian/hockey-player baby-daddy. Free drinks and fun prizes will be awarded in multiple categories.
The frame that has received the most publicity is the Kazuo Kawasaki #704.
USA Today ran a story in print and online yesterday called “Palin Has Created Quite A Stir… With Her Designer Glasses” which has generated a TON of new customers seeking out Italee brands.

Bring a blanket and come downtown for one of the most-
anticipated free concerts of the summer.
The concert is not ticketed, but space is limited and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
To celebrate the Hudson’s 400th anniversary New York City will putting on a fireworks display like never before. To join in the festivities the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Times Square will be offering rooms with perfect views and throwing a rooftop party for the first 100 guests to book rooms. These rooms and the party will be offered at special rates listed below.
Also, if there are people that would only like to attend the rooftop party, there is a special offer for that as well.
Come celebrate independence on the roof of the Rivington!
After a week hiatus we're back on the roof and back to the jacuzzis. The weather is supposed to be nice, so if you've been waiting for an appropriate time to come get loose in a rad New York City penthouse, Thursday is absolutely that time.
Benjamin "B Roc" Ruttner of HeavyRoc Music and Jonathan Price Totaro of Reason NY will be deejaying, bottles in the club, babes, etc etc etc.
We're expecting a lot of people so, if you can, please rsvp to info@lolanewyork.com or try and come early
After celebrating our country all day, spend all night honoring our king...of pop, that is. The Suzie Wong lounge will be spinning Michael Jackson music starting after the fireworks and lasting until the wee hours of dawn.
In late 2007, five young professionals, long connected by both friendship and family, decided to pool and tap into their own altruistic nature while encouraging others to do so. Their forum - the party. Calling themselves ‘fun-raisers’ their track record bears evidence
