Cops Park In Bike Lane For Emergency Papa John's Dinner
May 6, 2011 at 11:20 AM
 
   
Responding to an emergency call for "better ingredients, better pizza," an elite NYPD dinner unit swarmed a Papa John's location on Second Avenue and 25th Street yesterday. Arriving just in time to prevent a tragic loss of calories, the officers secured the perimeter and quickly cordoned off a section of the restaurant, where they neutralized the suspect, who was found hiding in a small greasy cardboard box. While containing the crisis, which unfolded during the evening rush hour, two squad cars were left parked in a bike lane. Obviously, no one can quibble about that—officers are sometimes forced to violate minor traffic laws in the course of official police appetite business. [ more › ]

The iconic "Law & Order" opening theme song, instantly recognizable to fans pretty much everywhere, helped cops find a robbery suspect in New Jersey yesterday. [ more › ]

NYPD Detains Brooklyn Cyclist/Musician During Obama's Ground Zero Visit The cops grabbed and held a "pushy" bicyclist with their guns drawn during an incident that occurred during President Obama's visit at Ground Zero.

May 6, 2011 at 1:07 AM
 
Last Night's Action: A Nice Start From Pelfrey Mets 5 San Francisco 2: Mike Pelfrey was good over 7-2/3 innings, allowing only one earned run while striking out 5 to earn his second win of the season. Carlos Beltran hit his 5th homer of the year while Jose Reyes had a 2-run triple. K-Rod came on in the 8th and saved the game, despite loading the bases with one-out in the 9th. The Mets will now face the only team in worse financial straits than they are, the LA Dodgers. [ more › ]

Osama Bin Laden Is Dead: THE SONG!
May 5, 2011 at 7:50 PM
 
Osama Bin Laden Is Dead: THE SONG! How did the fist-pumping Jersey Shore cast celebrate the death of Osama bin Laden? We're guessing this song was involved. 50 Cent protege Hot Rod slapped this tune together for release just 24 hours after the news came out. This Is 50 Cent says, "G-Note Records artist Hot Rod wasted no time in getting out a new song celebrating the death of Osama bin Laden. Over a thumping club track, Rod implores everyone to get on the dance floor and party." That's just what this historic moment was missing: a thumping club track. [ more › ]

Convivio And Alto's Huge Wine Cellars Hit The Auction Block Back in March restaurateur Chris Cannon closed his duo of Italian restaurants Alto and Convivio. Besides being sad to see two beloved restaurants go, a number of oenophiles we know were bummed to see the restaurants impressive wine lists slip away as well. So, if you were anything like our friends, you'll be happy to know that the duo's wine cellars are being auctioned off tomorrow morning. [ more › ]

War Dogs Wear Doggles, Sometimes Have Titanium Teeth
May 5, 2011 at 7:35 PM
 
   
[Update Below] Yesterday we demanded to see photos of the war dog that helped kill Osama bin Laden and though it doesn't look like the Department of Defense is going to be releasing the pup's name or picture (let alone its breed) that just means we'll have to make due with the tons of photos and information about war dogs (or Military Working Dogs) that hit the internet in the past twenty-four hours. For instance did you know that "The U.S. military often replaces a working dog's teeth with titanium fangs capable of ripping through enemy protective armor?" [ more › ]

Isabella, Jacob Are Most Popular Baby Names (AGAIN)
May 5, 2011 at 7:17 PM
 
Isabella, Jacob Are Most Popular Baby Names (AGAIN) The Social Security Administration released its annual tally of the most popular baby names and Isabella and Jacobs are tops yet again. The hottest boys' names are Grayson, Kellan, Mason, Easton, and Bentley and the hottest girls' names are Giuliana, Kinley, Khloe, Quinn and Maci—these hot names are fueled by pop culture figures, from Teen Moms to actors, from E! news hosts to E! reality show stars. (Explanation: "Incredibly, this name has made the hottest-rising list three years running on the reality-tv coattails of Khloe Kardashian. Four years ago Khloe was just a fringe "kreative" spelling of the hit traditional name Chloe. Now it's a top-50 hit.") [ more › ]

May 5, 2011 at 7:05 PM
 
Doctors Might Be Banned From Wearing Germ-Infested Ties Oh, those crazy doctors, always carrying methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus-infested accessories! A small but vocal group of lawmakers are proposing a bill that would bar doctors and other hospital staffers from wearing neckties in clinical settings, with the hope of reducing germ transmission from the paisley-patterned cloth. But is this really necessary? [ more › ]
