Parenting advice sensation Amy Chua, best known to America as the playdate and crappy homemade card-hating, piano/violin practice-loving, Chinese values-endorsing "Tiger Mother", was named to Time's 2011 list of 100 influential people. Which means she was at last night's gala dinner—the bestselling memoirist/Yale law professor Tweeted, "Had a great time at the Time 100 dinner last night. Got to hang out (and talk about parenting :) ) with Mark Wahlberg and Bruno Mars, who performed...will post pictures soon.." Chua also brought her husband, fellow bestselling novelist (and Yale law professor) Jed Rubenfeld and their daughters Sophia and Lulu.

This Week The Comedy Focuses on Rejection and Obsession
Everyone in New York, it seems, wants to make it big. But with so many people competing, work falls by the wayside, dreams get dashed and people get rejected. Which is the foundation for Jon Friedman’s Rejection Show, this Wednesday at P.S. 122. The show embraces the rejected material of professional and amateur writers, comedians, cartoonists, artists, and human beings, who display their creative “failures” live on stage. Of course many of the performers are contributors for The Daily Show, The New Yorker and even star on Arrested Development, so quit feeling sorry for yourself, even these guys have their critics. This week the show welcomes comedian Liam McEneany, cartoonist Matt Diffee, mayoral candidate Andy Horwitz and many more.
