Quantcast

Extra, Extra

  1. Today in the Gothamist Newsmap: a jumper up, two fall victims, and a shooting in the Bronx.
  2. Clever idea: make city agencies budget for all the free parking signs they give out to their staff-- thus encouraging them to cut down.
  3. Two more WTC victims were identified today-- both were on the first plane that hit. Their remains were not found in the recent searches.
  4. Silliest promotion this year: Ocean Spray constructed a giant cranberry bog at Rockefeller Center to celebrate cranberry harvest season. They even brought in bog-workers!
  5. Deranged subway-pusher Andrew Goldstein was finally sentenced to 23 years in prison for the murder of Kendra Webdale.
  6. NSFW or the hirsute: a woman is suing after a Harlem beauty parlor mangled her upper lip during a waxing procedure.
  7. Congrats to A-Ron and aNYthing brand for scoring yet another profile in the Times-- and actually getting them to refer to him as "A-Ron the Downtown Don." Awesome!
