Shane Victorino Fashion Show Departures including Kendra Wilkinson

The slide show had a little problem this morning, hopefully they fixed it now. But Kendra's picture is first, cause she left first around 9PM. No Cole Hamels shots as he and Heidi slipped out a side door.

2010 Mid-Atlantic Emmy® Nominees- August 17, 2010 Nominations Party - I'm sorta nominated for an Emmy Award. (Entire List Link Too)

Ironically last night at the 2010 Mid-Atlantic Emmy® Nominees held at R2L (ceremony is Sept. 25 at the Loews Hotel), there was a roomful of reporters and cameramen, but no one was reporting or filming the special moments (those newsies are so modest)


Fox29's Mike Jerrick is hysterical, as you will see in some of the snippets

And unlike so many nomination announcing ceremony's like the Oscars or the Tony Awards, this one was held in the evening when everyone was awake, happy and cheering for each other as the names were called. I listed a few here, but there is a comprehensive list link at the bottom.

Mystery Appears at Lippincott Hotel in Rittenhouse Square During Thom Nickel's reading of Spore. What Are Your Thoughts?

Hughe,

I thought you'd be interested in this photograph (attached). A photographer took this and then discovered this mysetrious light above my head during the Lippincott reading. There was no light fixture on the wall, so the source is mysterious. The first two photos she took did not come out at all, which she says never happens to her, then this picture was "produced."

It was a good night. Over 60 people attended, quite a crowd.

Thanks,
Thom

Thom's next reading and signing of his book will be at Barnes & Noble
