Designer takes place at crossroads of fashion, film

By Alyson Brodsy and Samantha Critchell · Wednesday, Oct. 11,2006 12:25 a.m.

Ninety years and thousands of pairs shoes ago, a 16-year-old Italian cobbler named Salvatore Ferragamo came to Los Angeles hoping to find a little glamour.

Diversity Day at 'The Office'

By Alyson Brodsy and Zack Teibloom · Sunday, Oct. 8,2006 11:57 p.m.

Saturday night, Lindsey and I bet on what time Tamir of Balkan Beat Box would remove his shirt. We argued whether his wearing a sweater would make him de-robe sooner or later. I guessed that he would be shirtless by 11 at the 10:30 p.m. show. By 10:59 we had a shirtless Tamir rapping and ending the show an hour later by climbing on the speaker and proclaiming, "I'm on the speaker because I have something to say."
