  • From the Gothamist Newsmap: A stabbing at 42nd Street and 7th Ave in Manhattan, child struck at Ditmas and Coney Island Avenue in Brooklyn, and an unusual car fire Laurel Hill And Review Ave in Queens.
  • The body of the Bronx girl who drowned in the Niagara River was found; her parents think the camp she was hiking with when she fell should be charged with her death..
  • Sitting with the NY Delegation, director Spike Lee said Michelle Obama "nailed" her speech.
  • Young NJ girls who were trapped in the republic of Georgia have finally returned home.
  • A Staten Island street sign (named after a 9/11 victim) that was ripped from the ground will be quickly reinstalled only because the Advance contacted the DOT. Otherwise, it would have been at least 14 days later.
  • Rafael Nadal maybe thinks his topless New York magazine cover "went too far."
  • The Dark Knight action figures expose Batman as Flatman (SFW!).
  • Is the 11211 confused by the David Byrne bike rack? Bikers are choosing parking meters over Byrne's creation, which might be because it looks like a Guitar Center logo?
