Mayor Bloomberg left U2 Way outside of Letterman's studio yesterday to make a cameo on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, welcoming the new host (and Brooklyn native) to New York. Overall the appearance was dry (the two posed for photos in front of images of City Hall, Rockefeller Plaza...Castle Grayskull), but it did serve as a way for Fallon to poke fun at the previous night's De Niro interview. Bloomberg declared that he wasn't sweating the city's economy as much as Fallon was "sweating last night with the interview with De Niro."

Last night the Community Board 1 held a meeting which doubled as an awards ceremony for the SI Ferry workers who saved Hannah Upp. The teacher who went missing from August 29th to September 16th was eventually found floating in the New York Harbor by the ferry workers, and last night she went to honor them herself. During her surprise appearance, she told the SI Advance, "The evening is really about them. I am recovering and grateful for all the support." She was last heard from earlier this month when she updated her Facebook status. Upp also privately visited the men last week, and one of them, Captain Covella, said last night that he "was honored that God chose me and my crew to fulfill their prayers."
