Last night Jesse Frohman's "In Bloom" exhibit opened at SoHo Grand's gallery, and Papermag describes it as "epic," twice (doubly epic!). The show features Frohman's now 14-year-old images of Kurt Cobain, and allegedly some photos of flowers. He told the website, "This shoot was supposed to be a five hour shoot. We had to do it in 15 minutes. It was crazy." It took place in NYC just before Cobain's death, and the singer arrived 3 hours late, looking exactly how he does in the photographs. But why show the seven photographs, from one photo shoot, now...is this just one more person trying to capitalize on Cobain? Could he be using his 15 minutes with the icon to get his, you know, 15 minutes? Whatever the reason, the show runs through January 31st, and images from the shoot are available for purchase in multiple places online.

The Queens DA announced that two American Airlines baggage handlers at JFK Airport were charged with stealing $280,000 of jewelry from a suitcase checked in and bound for Los Angeles. Apparently Albert Acevedo and Angelo Riviello had a code to let each other know about certain bags; in this instance, Riviello said, "Wow, that’s heavy," and Acevedo, baggage crew head, came over and opened the bag. Acevedo took some of the suitcase's envelopes and later told a colleague, “I made a good find today. These rings add up to $1000.” Riviello later admitted to hiding his take of the jewelry in his microwave while Acevedo admitted he put his stash under his bathroom sink. The Post says the victim is "gem merchant David Diamond," who alerted the police when he bag went missing.

One amateur Queens farmer has found herself standing in the shadows of a 6-foot-tall zucchini! The Daily News reports on Apollonia Castitlione's green thumb, and says she only used fertilizer and water to grow the massive fruit. She told the paper, "I've had my vegetable garden for 26 years, but I never saw anything so spectacular"...and it's still growing! At this rate, it could take out the world record holder, a 7-foot, 10-inch zucchini from India. Once it stops growing, Castitlione doesn't want to eat the fruits of her labor, saying "it's getting hard, so wouldn't be good to eat anymore," but she will save the seeds for next year.

An unidentified mugger got more than he bargained for when he tried to rob 77-year-old Barbara Mirbt outside her E. 83rd St. home Wednesday night. Mirbt is a tough cookie who survived the World War II bombing of Berlin, so when the thug told her to give up her bag or be stabbed, she wasn't ascared. She tells the Daily News that she fought back, even after the mugger stabbed her wrist with an pocketknife, saying 'I'm going to stab you more." Which he did, finally wresting away the bag, containing $1,500 for a sick friend. But Mirbt wasn't going to give up that easy, and she tried to chase her assailant, "blood leaking through her blouse." Yeah, you better run, punk! A neighbor muses, "I guess Barbara was feeling feisty." She was released from the hospital the next day; the mugger is still on the run from Mirbt.

30 Rock is pulling in the big names for their upcoming season (which begins October 30th). Jennifer Aniston was just shooting an episode (pictured), Will Arnett is also reprising his Devin Banks role, and now word is coming in that Oprah Winfrey herself will even be making an appearance. E! reports that the episode "is tentatively set to air Nov. 6. According to reliable insiders, the initial plan (subject to change) is that she will be playing herself, with all of her scenes opposite Tina Fey's fabulous Liz Lemon." Earlier this year Fey said, "I still want Oprah to play my best friend. I want to spend time with Oprah. And I don't know what I need to do to make that happen." She also said, "We would love to work with Britney. I worked with her twice on 'SNL' and she was very professional and nice."

Of course: An organic frozen yogurt called Yöghund, made specifically for dogs with discerning palates, has been tapping into the city's seemingly inexhaustible market of crazy pet owners. Kennel owner Jody Rogers started the company two years ago because she "wanted to come up with a product that would help with relieving stress." Don't laugh; today's dogs face more pressure than ever to stay competitive with all these adorable cats. A Yöghund spokesman in this commercial says that "dogs get into this zone where once they start licking it, they generally don't stop until it's all done." Of course, dogs will also slurp up their own vomit until it's all done. And when it comes to frozen yogurt, the Post finds that four out of five dogs prefer the same thing humans want: Haagen-Dazs.

Worst second day of school ever! Over 20 five- and six-year-olds students from Achievement First Charter School in Brownsville were stuck on a bus for five hours when their driver "got lost but wouldn't admit it." One parent told the Daily News, "I was going crazy. I was thinking the bus was in an accident." The driver, Joseph Gray, 53, was already an hour late, arriving at 4:45 p.m., and didn't finish dropping kids off until 9:20 p.m. One parent said her "traumatized" daughter saw Gray "looking at a paper" (maybe a map?). The bus company's lawyer said, "We are trying to find out exactly what happened with this driver, because the conduct so far appears to be bizarre," adding if the Department of Education installed GPS on the bus, it could have been found sooner. So far, the DOE has just suspended Gray.

We're hearing that a construction worker fell 40 floors to his death at a site on West 41st Street and 11th Avenue. Also, a part of a crane may have fallen. The Department of Buildings and OSHA are responding to the scene. Update: Per comments and new reports, a crane did not fall but it looks like scaffolding rigging fell. CityRoom says the site is owned by WTC developer Larry Silverstein. The incident occurred at his $700 million Silver Towers project, two 60-story towers at West 42nd Street.
