"RUMORS of an explicit home video showing Christie Brinkley's slimy hubby Peter Cook having sex with his curvy teen office worker Diana Bianchi have made the rounds for months, and now Page Six can reveal the truth - it does exist. Yesterday, we were shown a series of stills from a video depicting Cook and Bianchi, both nude, having sexual intercourse on a brown love seat. They also show Bianchi performing a sizzling striptease down to a pair of black, G-string panties and then to her birthday suit as Cook holds his crotch. Another shows Cook resting his head on Bianchi's buttocks. It appears the tape was made at Cook's Southampton architectural office without Bianchi's knowledge." (PageSix)

"McCain is due to be on Letterman tonight, but his plane was stuck in Philly. So his campaign chartered a helicopter... and he's here at Letterman's studio now. The pool reporters are still stuck in Philly, so I'm here to file the print pool report." (Brian Stelter/Twitter)

"John McCain needed a miracle in his final debate with Barack Obama on Wednesday night, a miracle that would wipe away McCain’s deficit in the polls and reenergize his flagging campaign. He did not get one. The clouds did not part. Heavenly choirs were not heard. Instead, the American public heard angry attacks from McCain. Sometimes McCain attacked directly, and sometimes he attacked sarcastically, but he never stopped attacking. And he never rattled Obama. Obama answered every attack and kept his cool." (Politico)

"The old Florent space was the spot for a party for Converse by John Varvatos Spring 2009 collection featuring a performance by hot new band Young Lords. The much-missed Florent was also the location for Converse's Fall 2008 campaign which was shot by Ryan McGinley. The space was packed with the fashion elite (Think: GQ's Jim Moore, Brian Coats, Damien Nunes, Details' Michael Macko, Matthew Marden, Micah Johnson, The New York Times' Horacio Silva and Armand Limnander, Nylon's Dani Stahl, stylists Isabel Dupre and Kate Lamphear and Allure's Michael Karl as well as Mr. Mickey!)."

"CYNTHIA Rodriguez made her peace when it comes to once upon a time loving husband A-Rod. Despite his refusing to ever address the issue head-on with her, she well knew he'd been seeing Guy Ritchie's once upon a time loving wife Madonna. Cynthia has loyal, fiercely devoted friends. They're sharper than seeing-eye dogs. She therefore knows where he's been." (CindyAdams)

"Oil prices plummeted on Thursday, falling below $70 a barrel for the first time in 16 months, and prompting the OPEC cartel to call for an emergency meeting next week. The rapid decline in prices had alarmed petroleum executives and oil producers who are becoming increasingly nervous that it is undermining the stability of energy markets ..While not a quite rout, the precipitous drop undermines the elusive quest for stability that both oil producers and petroleum executives say they need to invest over the long term. Thursday’s sharp decline moved OPEC members to schedule an emergency meeting for next week to look for ways to stem the price decline. Analysts expect the cartel’s producers to reduce their production by about a million barrels a day." (NYTimes)
