The Giants may have a case of déjà vu heading into Sunday’s game. Once again a win means they are in the playoffs and once again they are face the prospect of adverse weather conditions. But, the Bills are simply not a very good football team. They rank 30th in offense and defense and their 7-7 record is due to beating up on a weak schedule. That same criticism could be made of the Giants......

SFist witnessed a student interrupt Sean Penn's Dennis Kucinich-endorsement speech at San Francisco State University, with sexy results. Sort of. Speaking of sort of sexy, SFist readers demanded to know: at what age does one become a cougar most? In local political news, it looked like San Francisco Public Utilities Commission chief Susan Leal might get the ax. Au revoir! And we found a startling aesthetic connection between the Omaha mall shooter and Rick......

THEATER: We could try to describe Neal Medlyn's Coming In The Air Tonight, but why bother when there’s this: “The show features a variety of Phil Collins and Genesis music and is about how Neal is starting to slowly fall apart due to how he's all torn up inside from getting his heart broken into tiny pieces. It is also about how Neal steals a lot of stuff from people. Like their belongings and house......

SIGNING: If there is one person we could think of that doesn't need an autobiography...it might as well be Rupert Everett. Yet, he'll be signing his new book "Red Carpets and Other Banana Skins: The Autobiography" tonight. He wasn't just in "My Best Friends Wedding", he was also friends with Warhol and has been to easter egg hunts in Elizabeth Taylor's garden. Fabulous. 7pm // Barnes & Noble [33 E 17th St] // Free SHOP:......

While you cannot fault Sheepshead Bay High social studies teacher Thomas Everett for his honesty, we seriously wonder what he was thinking when he asked to take time off in order to serve time in jail. Everett's written request stated that he had to deal with "problems with the state of New Jersey judicial system," and naturalLy the Department of Ed's investigators investigated, finding out that Everett was a disbarred New Jersey lawyer, who had......

Everett, Washington (population 97,000) is a tranquil town that hosts blue collar workers, beautiful scenery and, once a year, The Outdoorsmen Championship. Invented 14 years ago by a group of high school friends (of course), the event allows men to be men and boys to be boys. Perfect fodder for a film, no? The Outdoorsmen: Blood, Sweat & Beers follows an exclusive group of middle-aged men who travel to a top-secret location in Washington State......

For far more time than we'd like to admit, we spent our days commuting to and from the stressful center of neon lights and fanny packs that is Times Square. During this period, we were always immensely grateful for the existence of the International Center of Photography, which always provided us with a blissful lunch hour retreat, whether from the stress of the teeming masses outside or just from excel projects gone maddeningly awry. Now......

After a dismal start to the season, the "new Mets" are looking revived, winning three straight games. Last night, they defeated the Astros, 1-0 in 11 innings. The game brought Roger Clemens back to Shea Stadium for the first time since 2002. Clemens faced the Mets last May in Houston, a game that the Mets also won in extra innings despite a great performance by the Astros pitcher. This time, however, Mike Piazza wasn't the......

Bert Sperling, who has been compiling information for almost two decades about the best places in the country, has developed a list of the most difficult cities to navigate. Sperling used Avis's mobile-phone assisted navigation, Avis Assist, and Motorola to figure out where people are most navigationally challenged, using factors like street layouts (grids, diagonals, windiness, one-way streets), congestion, bodies of water, and complexity of directions from city to airport. The top ten most difficult......

Gothamist is intrigued to hear that Brooklyn's in da house, not once, but twice in the upcoming Broadway season.    First, Brooklyn begins previews in September at the Plymouth Theatre in a show that has been described as "a musical about the journey of a Parisian songstress" which jumps between our mighty borough and the city of light.  Eden Espinoza (Wicked) and hottie Kevin Anderson (Sunset Boulevard, Death of a Salesman) star,  and Jeff Calhoun (Big River) directs. The show was first produced......

Queer Eye For The Straight Guy premiered Tuesday night and it was just as good as Gothamist had hoped: A pack of gay men terrorizing a straight man into cleaning himself and his lifestyle in order to jumpstart his life, by way of clothes, accessories, styling products, gourmet food, and etiquette, and a healthy dose of bitchy remarks - love it. Since Toby at vividblurry has already elegantly laid out the inspiring Fab Five......
