Naked City

Running Numbers

29 Number — and age limit — of Random House essay contest winners — including Penn grad student Jennifer Glaser — who will be featured in the upcoming compilation Twentysomething Essays by Twentysomething Writers, to be released Aug. 29.

22 Number of videos, as of press time, posted on YouTube by user BobCaseyforSenate, compared to the 11 posted by user RickSantorum. Dude, NSFW.

5 Percent of ticket sales from their screenings that filmmakers will receive at the 2006 Terror Film Festival, in Philly Oct. 18-23. Feature and Short Length Film entries for "The Really, Really Late 'Last Chance' Zombie Deadline" must be postmarked by Aug. 31. Details are available at www.terrorfilmfestival.com. I'm thinking of just submitting a Santorum campaign ad.

6 Number of Philadelphia-related mail items to be featured during Nutmeg Stamp Sales' Mail Sale 124, closing Aug. 29. View the item catalog at www.nutmegstamp.com.

4 Number of decks available to be reveled upon during the 4th Annual Pon di River Cruise Aug. 26 from 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. aboard the Liberty Belle Boat at the 5100 S. Broad St. Cruise Ship Terminal. According to the event description, white attire is requested, as "this year's theme is a White Glow Party." Sounds like a Santorum fundraiser. (Hey-O! I'm on fire!) Call 215-620-7875 for info and tickets.
