This week is great, if you are in NYC this particular week and a half is the 81st annual feast of San Genero. Which is a great feast by the way.  It used to be run by lets say dubious Photos by Battman Studio. The 81st Annual Feast of San Gennaro, New York City’s oldest, biggest and most famous religious street festival, will be celebrated in 2008 starting Thursday, September 11 and continuing for 11 days through Sunday, September 21. characters but nice nonetheless. Rudy G. cleaned up the festival and gave it to other less inclined organizers. It is a clean operation and a fun time to check out the Italian culture and the Catholic culture. It is running in little Italy and will be finished on the 21st. The Feast is easily accessible by public transportation.

Movies opening this week

Sorry we have been a little behind with the new movies openings but not with the thoughts on the hot new movies. We looked Ghost Town (2008) Poster, click to check out our reviews of the flicks that are released.at several in September. So check them out.

Ghost Town: It is about a character named Bertram Pincus is a man whose people skills leave much to be desired. When Pincus dies unexpectedly, but is miraculously revived after seven minutes, he wakes up to discover that he now has the annoying ability to see ghosts. Even worse, they all want something from him, particularly Frank Herlihy, who pesters him into breaking up the impending marriage of his widow Gwen. That puts Pincus squarely in the middle of a triangle, with spirited results.

Eagle Eye: This is a movie that is being pushed, but seems one that most want to see. It is going to be a thriller movie and looks to be filled with action. The synopsis goes like this: Jerry Shaw and Rachel Holloman are two strangers thrown together by a mysterious phone call from a woman they have never met. Threatening their lives and family, she pushes Jerry and Rachel into a series of increasingly dangerous situations, & using the technology of everyday life to track and control their every move. As the situation escalates, these two ordinary people become the country's most wanted fugitives, who must work together to discover what is really happening and more importantly, why? Release Date: September 26th, 2008

The Women: This is the hot new movie ladies and it is a feel good flick. In New York City's modern whirl of fashion and The Women (2008) Poster, Click to check our reviews of Septembers hot moviespublishing, Mary Haines seems to have it all--a beautiful country home, a rich financier husband, an adorable 11-year-old daughter and a part-time career creating designs for her father's venerable clothing company. Her best friend, Sylvie Fowler, leads another enviable life, as a happily single editor of a prominent fashion magazine, a possessor of a huge closet of designer clothes and a revered arbiter of taste and style poised on New York's cutting edge. But when Mary's husband enters into an affair with Crystal Allen, a sultry "spritzer girl" lurking behind the Saks Fifth Avenue perfume counter, all hell breaks loose. Mary and Sylvie's relationship is tested to the breaking point while their tight-knit circle of friends, including mega-mommy Edie Cohen and author Alex Fisher, all start to question their own friendships and romantic relationships as well. Release Date: September 12th, 2008
 

On DVD Now

Jumper: Doug Liman (MR. AND MRS. SMITH) directs this adaptation of Steven Gould's novels about people called "jumpers" who can transport themselves through space and time. This science-fiction adventure stars Jamie Bell (KING KONG), Hayden Christensen (STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH), and Samuel L. Jackson.

Fools Gold: After starring in the romantic comedy hit HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS, Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson up the action ante for this adventure film. In this action-comedy hybrid, the pair plays a divorced couple who reunite to search for sunken treasure. Andy Tennant (HITCH, SWEET HOME ALABAMA) directs a cast that also includes Donald Sutherland, Ewen Bremner, and Ray Winstone.

Definitely, Maybe: Ryan Reynolds stars as Will Hayes, a 30-something Manhattan dad in the midst of a divorce when his 10-year-old daughter, Maya (Abigail Breslin), starts to question him about his life before marriage. Maya wants to know absolutely everything about how her parents met and fell in love. Will's story begins in 1992, as a young, starry-eyed aspiring politician who moves to New York from Wisconsin in order to work on the presidential campaign. For Maya, Will relives his past as an idealistic young man learning the ins and outs of big city politics, and recounts the history of his romantic relationships with three very different women. Will hopelessly attempts a "gentler" version of his story for his daughter and changes the names so Maya has to guess who is the woman her father finally married. Is her mother Will's college sweetheart, the dependable girl next door Emily (Elizabeth Banks)? Is she his longtime best friend and confidante, the apolitical April (Isla Fisher)? Or is she the free-spirited but ambitious journalist Summer (Rachel Weisz)? As Maya puts together the pieces of her dad's romantic puzzle, she begins to understand that love is not so simple or easy. And as Will tells her his tale, Maya helps him to understand that it's definitely never too late to go back...and maybe even possible to find a happy ending.

Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins: Leading an all-star comedy cast, Martin Lawrence is talk-show sensation RJ Stevens, who left behind his modest Southern upbringing and family name to transform into a self-help guru dispensing his "Team of Me" philosophy to millions of adoring fans. With a reality-TV-star fiancée and money to burn, there's no piece of the Hollywood dream RJ hasn't achieved. After his parents request that he come home for their 50th wedding anniversary, the TV host packs up his 10-year-old son and diva bride-to-be and heads back to Georgia. It's a chance to prove to his family that he's no longer the awkward kid they relentlessly picked on. At least, that's the plan... But when his crazy, lovable family calls him on his big-city attitude and challenges him at every turn, RJ is forced to take a hard look at the man he's become. He may be a superstar in L.A., but he's just one of the guys in Dry Springs as folks say Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins.

Bordertown: Since 1993, almost 400 women have been murdered in Juarez, Mexico, a factory town that is home to people who toil away at “maquiladoras” (border factories) making cheap consumer goods for the US market. BORDERTOWN tells the story of Lauren Fredricks (Jennifer Lopez), an ambitious newspaper reporter, who has been sent to Juarez by her editor (Martin Sheen) to investigate what has happened to these hundreds of women and how the local police and authorities have been covering up the brutal rapes and murders. Lauren looks up her former colleague (and lover) Alfonso Diaz (Antonio Banderas), who now runs the local paper, and they soon uncover one of the hottest stories of the year when they come across the only known survivor of one of these mysterious attacks. The victim is reluctant to speak, but Lauren convinces her to break the silence; yet the real danger is not the murder, but the larger forces who don’t want the story told.  It went directly to DVD though, but good to check out.

I Could Never Be Your Woman: In this offbeat romantic comedy, Tracey Ullman plays Mother Nature, cheerfully interfering with the lives of a woman (Michelle Pfeiffer) who falls for a younger man (Paul Rudd), while her daughter (Saoirse Ronan) struggles with her own romantic issues.  Straight to DVD also.

For Movie Reviews for December, January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, Sept, Nov.

Building upon the foundation of her mega-successful, super-exclusive Supper Club in London, Tamsin Lonsdale is bringing her Sloane Ranger brand of traveling dinner parties stateside, for the It-makers of New York City. (Plans are under way for expansion globally, targeting Dubai, India, Hong Kong and Los Angeles.) "Our aim is to think about what New Yorkers want before they know it," she says of the club, which will cost applicants $750 for local membership and $1,000 for international (London and New York), not including the cost of the dinners themselves. "Once you are part of this exclusive supper club, you're going to meet the people I have handpicked, and I'm going to be hosting every dinner." "She will give you access to all the places where you might not be able to get into on your own," explains Joey Jalleo, an event producer behind the launch party being held tonight at the National Arts Club. "It's like Willy Wonka's golden ticket. You've got New York at your fingertips." In London, the Supper Club boasts 1,000 members with more than 300 on the waiting list - and an acceptance rate of 25 percent. The goal for New York? To make it even more exclusive, accepting just one in five applicants. The current membership is close to 300. One major difference: While the London Supper Club began as a dinner-dating scene for well-heeled singles, the New York Supper Club is focused almost entirely on networking. There's even an online component where you can check other members' profiles. TAMSIN Lonsdale, the 29-year-old British socialite, daughter of fashion guru Tony Lonsdale and one-time supermodel Chekkie Maskell. "We want to introduce them to like-minded people." Lonsdale didn't really break out until she used her sister's fame to help piggyback into the limelight. "It happened when her sister Chloe launched her jeans company, Made in Heaven. At the time, they both became these two powerful sisters. They became the sister It girls, the Sykes sisters of London, basically." After submitting your application to the supper club newyork.com, know that you will be vetted directly by Lonsdale with a requirement that prospective applicants must be referred by two existing members, which seems kind of tough but some do it. This is no relation to our old Supper Club in NY, which was the hottest spot in NY, for the House crowd.  


The new i-Phone is having its share of problems.  If you have this marvelous hunk of junk and had downloaded programs you will see as the phone updated that you lost some of the free programs and such.  AT&T, and Apple implemented some bugs to erase those programs from your phone never to return. So it was not you, it was them saying you must pay them for everything with the phone.  It is amazing that they would have done such a thing, after charging so much for the phone but who has the money and spent it, lose it quickly. I refused to get the phone myself because I never trust Apple, they do not share well with others and have been notorious for making there wares not compatible with others.  Thereby making you buy software and hardware through them.  Hey it is the American way, to pay through the nose with them. In a good note however, consumers fought them in court and they are allowing some companies to work on the i-phone and make programs for them coming up in Jan.  So builders can make programs for their phones, programming the units from that time on.


Beyoncé announced today that she is joining her minister and friend Pastor Rudy Rasmus, the Global FoodBanking Network and Aidmatrix® to launch an international virtual food drive initiative. Beyoncé says, "Reaching out and touching lives is incredibly empowering, that's why I want my fans to experience more than my music. I want them to experience the joy of making a difference by helping someone else."

Mary J. Blige has moved back the release date of upcoming album Growing Pains two weeks to Dec. 11. She explains that the collection is a look at her present state, with which she's mostly happy.

Alicia Keys looking cute in shades, Welcome to Feb Issue of Red Zone Musical Magazine

Alicia Keys' As I Am makes its way back to the top spot of the Billboard 200 chart for the fourth non-consecutive week. The disc sold 61,000 copies last week, bumping the Juno soundtrack to No. 2. Elsewhere on the chart, Mary J. Blige's Growing Pains falls two spots to No. 6, while Keyshia Coles' Just Like You remains at No. 8. In other news, Lyle Jennings, hot new prospect, click to his myspace to check out his new stuffLyfe Jennings has set April 29 as the release date for his third effort, Lyfe Change. For the 11-track disc, the singer-guitarist decided to work with various artists like Lil Wayne and Snoop Dogg, as well as new producers the Underdogs and Wyclef Jean. "By working with different people, naturally I am able to tap into those different genres and audiences," Lyfe says. To listen to Lyfe's new single, "Never Never Land," click this:


The show "In The Heights" is a Latin multi-cultural drama about life in the Washington Heights of NYC.  It is a great show and filled with lots of Flavor.  A must-see for young-older theatre goers, it is electrifying and fun.  A little rapping, singing, head bopping fun for the family, all will appreciate the warm feeling this play gives.  Lin-Manuel Miranda is the star of this show and gives you a look into life. Back when Rent took The Street by storm, the East Village was a hotbed of youth and counterculture. Now that you can't find a small studio apartment there for less than $2,000 per month, other areas of town are contending for the title of hipster haven - and though Brooklyn is the clear frontrunner, the upper reaches of Manhattan island are now home to many of the striving classes. Set there, this (actually quite wholesome) new tuner looks to the deeper roots of the neighborhood, far, far to the south, Latin America ways, and the largely Latino culture that has emerged north of Harlem.  Get Tickets Now  (discount | full-price | premium | unavailable)

Actor Christopher Reeve has died at the age of 52 in a New York hospital. Reeve was best known for his role in the successful Superman films of the 1970s and 1980s, where he brought the comic book hero to life.  An amazing man whose accomplishments are far reaching and felt even today in his name, his wife carries on his legacy.

He had been suffering from an infection as a result of a pressure wound and died on Sunday, his publicist said.  He suffered a cardiac arrest at his New York home and slipped into a coma, Wesley Combs added.  Reeve was paralyzed in 1995 when he broke his neck after being thrown from a horse.   He later became an advocate for spinal cord injury research. In recent years, he had regained sensation in some parts of his body. His legacy lives on in his amazing works that he started with his wife.  Superman's legacy thru many new movies and projects that have followed the actors death.


Rodney Dangerfield died this morning Oct. 6, 2005.  He came out of the coma and passed away soon after.  He will be missed, his great style and loving type of monikers, "I don't get no Respect".

Rick James the Performer of Freakiness has passed away:

Rick James died in his sleep at his home near Universal City, CA. He was 56. An autopsy has failed to determine the singer's cause of death.  James, who was born in Buffalo, N.Y., will be buried Saturday in his hometown following a funeral service. He is survived by three children and two grandchildren.  Motown founder Berry Gordy Jr., Chaka Kahn, Jamie Foxx, Jermaine Jackson and Teena Marie were among the 1,200 or so family, friends and fans attending Thursday’s memorial service for Rick James.  The ceremony, held at the Forest Lawn cemetery in Hollywood Hills, featured a speech by Minister Louis Farrakhan as well as a musical performance by Stevie Wonder.

Ray Charles Passed away

He passed away from acute live disease.  He died at at the age of 73. The 12-time Grammy winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame winner took the suffering and sadness of the blues and combined it with the rousing energy of gospel to invent a new genre called soul music, with hits like "I Got a Woman" and "A Fool For You." He took his personal struggles -- watching his brother drown at the age of 5, losing his sight to glaucoma when he was 7, becoming an orphan by 15, and funneled them into touching songs like "I Can't Stop Loving You" and "Georgia on My Mind."


In New York, here comes the Queen, Mary that is!

Nothing like waiting for a long time for something spectacular.  I was waiting for the arrival of the Queen Mary and it was the longest time I ever spent (just kidding).  It was a beautiful ship that was supposed to dock I was told at 07:40 in the morning but was more like after 9am and it was worth it.  The hot chocolate did run out and the police and harbor patrol did make it hectic but all in all it was a nice berth.  It reminded me of the Navy and having to through the big lines to the pier to have the ship moored.  I did like to see it instead of do it this time.  And that ship was so much bigger than some of the ones I have been on.  It was one of the biggest cruise ships ever built.

After encountering rough seas and gale force winds in the North Atlantic that definitely rocked the boat and sent plates flying, the world's most expensive passenger ship, Cunard Line's Queen Mary 2, sailed under the Verrazano Bridge this morning around 6:15, passed the Statue of Liberty about 7 and docked at Pier 92 in the Hudson River next to the Intrepid.

The anxiously awaited ocean liner -- which is so maneuverable it doesn't need the help of tugboats to dock -- was greeted by fireboats spraying water, crowds of onlookers and dignitaries, including Mayor Michael Bloomberg, city tourism officials and Micky Arison, chief executive of Carnival Corp. Carnival announced it would build the vessel in June, 1998, one month after it bought Cunard.

By several accounts the maiden westbound voyage from Southampton, England, carrying 2,600 passengers and 1,300 crew members, has been a trip to remember. "Yes, they have hit some weather," Cunard president Pamela Conover said yesterday from the solid footing of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel.

The ship's speed was slowed this week because of heavy waves and storms, but as the skies got calmer and the fog lifted, the 1,132-foot long ship was cruising at 29 knots yesterday, she said. The Queen Mary 2, for now the longest, widest and tallest passenger ship, is built for unpredictable seas. "It has shown to be able to come through it and still be on time. This is a positive thing," Conover said to the New York Newsday.

 

The new Queen Mary 2, the 1,132-foot-long Cunard liner. The ship's maiden westbound transatlantic crossing to New York this week has steamship aficionados longing for the days when crossing the Atlantic took days, not hours, and when ships were as stylish as the passengers. Dowdy freighters and impersonal container ships the grand old ocean liners were not.

Even though the Queen Mary 2 is the longest, tallest, widest and heaviest nonmilitary vessel in history (yes it does make a certain boat that sank look small, just a bit) and believe me it must be seen to be believed. That includes the ship's famous relatives, the original Queen Mary (now a hotel by the docks in Long Beach, California) and the Queen Elizabeth 2. The Queen Mary 2 also is the most expensive ship in the world, both to build and to get on board. It cost $800 million, and the rooms range from $1,869 for a cabin to $27,499 for what the Cunard Line calls a "grand duplex." That's what I call a vacation.  The rooms are gorgeous and made to make you feel comfortable.

Some comparisons:

 
  • QM2 is five times longer than Cunard's first ship, Britannia (230 ft.)
     
  • QM2 is 113 feet longer than the original Queen Mary
     
  • QM2 is more than twice as long as the Washington Monument is tall (550 ft.)
     
  • QM2 is 147 feet longer than the Eiffel Tower is tall (984 ft.)
     
  • QM2 is more than 3 ½ times as long as Westminster Tower (Big Ben) is high (310 ft.)
     
  • QM2 is only 117 feet shorter than the Empire State Building is tall (1248 ft.)
     
  • QM2 is more than three times as long as St. Paul's Cathedral is tall (366 ft.)
     
  • QM2 is as long as 41 double-decker London buses (31 ½ ft. each)
     
  • QM2's whistle will be audible for 10 miles
