  • Today on the Gothamist Newsmap: a shooting on 155th Ave. and 79th St. in Queens, a bank robbery at the Chase branch on De Kalb and Bedford Ave. in Brooklyn, and a pedestrian struck at Hunts Point and Lafayette Aves. in the Bronx.
  • The Guggenheim sent out a postcard inviting people to a seminar about Andy Warhol. The message on the reverse side is expletive-laced and describes Warhol and his fans in derogatory terms to say the least.
  • The St. John's University student who brought a rifle to campus has been found psychiatrically unfit for trial.
  • Nathan Kensinger Photography has shots of the Roosevelt Island Encampment installation.
  • Lower East Side neighborhood activists are pushing for the renovation of the La Guardia Bathhouse on Madison St.
  • The imminent demise of the iconic Metrocard.
  • Two Yonkers men were arrested after they found a woman's wallet containing her passport and other important documents. They held it for ransom, demanding more cash and threatening to destroy everything.
  • Next weekend, zombies will be doing yoga and you're invited to join them, if you have the guts.
