Don't be fooled by the headline that reads "Job hunting? Send your resume to Crain's." Because they're not actually hiring anyone. (They've been laying off staff, actually.) But they would love a copy of your resume to publish in the weekly newspaper. Free user-generated content for a struggling paper, some exposure for a desperate job-seeker: It's a match made in heaven! [Crain's]

Danny Meyer Bribee: We're Pretty Sure It's This Guy

The Danny Meyer Mystery may be over. While we yesterday suggested that the guilty might be Esquire's John Mariani, that appears not to be the case. Several sources suggest we check out Crain's Bob Lape. Following the Eater cue that "the list of reviewiers who, circa 2000, employed a star system and goose-egged Tabla and two-starred Blue Smoke is not long," we looked at the Crain's archives. Results? In 1999, Lape gave Tabla no stars ("With his new Indian/American restaurant, Tabla, Danny Meyer dares go where few have succeeded. So far, he hasn't either."), but after experiencing Meyer's hospitality, he found Blue Smoke worthy of two stars. ("Magic dust. that's what Danny Meyer brings to his new restaurants").
