In the afternoon, NARAL Pro-Choice New York hosts their annual Champions of Choice awards at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, where last year's champion, Mike Bloomberg, is schedule to say a few words.
Then, George Pataki attends shiva for Rabbi Moses Teitelbaum, just before Harlem residents protest Columbia University's proposed expansion plans at the university's main gate.
And in the evening, Wesley Clark headlines two fundraisers for WesPAC: a cocktail reception at the home of George Soros, followed by dinner at The Carlyle.

So, Pataki's attending shiva for Teitelbaum; the question is, which one?
Wonder if chris quinn will attend.
10:21 Quinn will attend...if Tom Manton tells her to
If she goes, she'll have to sit in the back room with the ladies; it's not a gay thing, it's a gender thing. If it was Tom Duane who was the Speaker, he'd sit in the front room.
But, to retierate my original point, the shiva the Governor's going to may very well be in KJ (or he might go to both). I suspect Quinn would only go to Billyburg.
The Oil Drum has an interesting take on the current sad level of debate on energy issues in their first ever joint press release. www.theoildrum.com
