  1. Today on the Gothamist Newsmap: an unusual incident on the Queensboro Bridge ("NYPD HAVE 1 IN CUSTODY AFTER CONTROLLING A BICYCLE-CAB IN TRAFFIC" --BNN), two armed robberies in Brooklyn, and "scaffold incident" on 57th Street.
  2. Columbia students sure take detergent-stealing seriously: "...your mother should have had an abortion, you parasite. To whoever is touring Columbia's campus as a potential place for your son or daughter, do not come here. Your child's detergent is not safe. And he/she will be going to school with malicious opportunists who have no class and no respect."
  3. We've probably linked to this before, but it's worth a second-look: the cutest bomb-squad logo you've ever seen!
  4. Jon Corzine finally got around to signing the New Jersey Civil Unions bill today.
  5. Bad news for Brooklyn Music fans: Galapagos might be closing!
  6. Flickr user Gowanus snuck into the Revere Sugar Factory and caught some amazing pix inside the iconic cone. [Via Curbed.]
  7. A 17 year old admitted that he fatally stabbed his 15 year old brother over an argument about the TV ( the little brother said he was "going to call Mommy," but came at him with a knife and a struggle ensued where the older brother ended up with the knife); he's getting 7 years in jail

People incensed about the Sean Bell shooting held their "Day of Outrage" protest on Wall Street today. Joe went down and got a nice set of shots.

  • ohplease

    Between women dying putting on makeup while driving and kids stabbing each other to death over some (likely dumbass) tv show, i'm about to get my tubes tied.

  • stop the crime first

    They should protest their crime infested hoods

    where people get killed and mugged everyday.

    The police is not going to take chances in that kind of atmosphere,they will shoot to kill.

    If this was a safe area ,no one would have been shot.

    I would like to know what these guys were doing for a living-crack dealers?

  • Boober Fraggle

    I love detergent.

  • detergent-stealing seriously:



    who the hell walks around with a year-supply of detergent?

  • jack oneil

    Hey, make a bigger sign and maybe people will listen.



    Seriously, if these people were doing anything else besides making this a white against black thing and letting the process happen (investigation) maybe I'd take them seriously. As it is they would be more productive telling kids to stay in school and cleaning up their hoods.



    Maybe all the Wall St people should go protest where these people work, you know, the service jobs made possible by the long hours these crackers put in at the office.



    Oh yeah...those places probably don't exist.



    #1 enemy is stupidity and these people are losing that battle.
