- Today on the Gothamist Newsmap: a construction accident in Chelsea, a Hazmat condition in Bay Ridge, and a bank robbery on Staten Island.
- That leaf is huge!
- In a stunt so confusing it could come only from the art world, the graffiti artist UFO showed up at the release party for his supposedly unauthorized photo-biography and got into an argument with the authors.
- For $75, The Evaluatress will "will give you a brutally honest assessment of your personal style, teeth whiteness, hair thickness, penis size, and general attractiveness." But like most high-class prosies, she only works calls in Manhattan.
- Prosecutors requested that gun charges against rappers Lloyd Banks and Young Buck be dropped; Banks managed to comment about the situation and get an album plug in, "This whole experience reminds me of the title of my new album 'Rotten Apple.'"
- Yowzas: Bloggers AVC and Gotham Gal are selling their townhouse for $37.5m! It's a 55-foot wide Brownstone on 10th Street.
- Steve Bartelstein got suspended indefinitely from the Channel 7 morning news-- apparently he showed up 20 minutes after the start of the Monday newscast.

Bartelstein -- meth head and a big ol' bottom. about time all of his bad habits caught up with him. Sad case.
The car is a Didik Long Ranger, a hybrid gasoline-electric powered vehicle designed by Frank Didik, who also owns the house in back of it.

$37.5M eh? Lots of money around, none of it mine.
I have little doubt as to which specific evaluation is of the greatest interest to the Evaluatress' customers. Hint: it isn't personal style, teeth whiteness, hair thickness, and general attractiveness.
That huge leaf is from a tulip tree, Liriodendron tulipifera, also known as a yellow poplar.
thanks! added the info to the flickr description.
Peter (fantastic name for your comment) - I'm with you. The thing that kills me is the fact that any dude who'd go to the Evaluatress has undoubtedly measured and assessed his own dick from every conceivable angle.
its funny how you call that ufo at the opening. if you look at the page its in quotes - a friend of the artist appeared, not the UFO. he proceeded to sign the books for people with a paint pen, then said "im not ufo and i just ruined your book"
