[Rachel] Maddow has less nice things to say about the Curbed blog, which last month published the address and floor plan of the West Village apartment where she and her girlfriend are moving. “They may get a lot of page views for that, but I think they would have gotten just as many page views if they had redacted my address and considered my safety and privacy. Whoever at Curbed decided the actual address and floor plan was necessary to get those page views, I hope they die in a fire.”

Stay classy, Curbed.

NY1: Principal Spends His 40th Birthday Camped Out On the Sidewalk To Help Raise Awareness and Funds For His School

Mark Federman has spent the last nine days camping outside the East Side Community High School, hoping to win enough votes on Facebook to be one of the 20 winners of the Kohl’s Cares $10 million give away.

Menschy cat.

What did you do on your birthday?

You can vote for East Side up to five times by going here.

Voting ends Friday.

C’mon, New York.

Thanks in advance.

Last night during an impromptu trip to NYC, I was finally graced with the opportunity to try one of the city’s arguably best burger, the bistro burger ala Corner Bistro. Piled high with crispy bacon, onions, pickles, lettuce, tomato, and gooey melted cheese, this eight-ounce beauty did not disappoint. As an added bonus, a burger and beer will run you less than 10 bucks, not too shabby if I do say so myself.

LaFrieda Puts Black Label Impostors on Notice

You may have raised an eyebrow when Jonathan Gold claimed that L.A.’s Burger Kitchen was “the only place this side of Chicago where you can taste La Frieda’s Black Label blend.” Didn’t Mark Pastore of LaFrieda say Minetta Tavern was the only place serving the blend of dry-aged rib-eye, brisket, and skirt steak, whatever certain others have claimed

I can’t seem to ever walk through the West Village without seeing a headdress, tipi, or feathers in store windows.

to see a tipi made out of an american flag is just insulting.

Residents who live near the Greenwich Village Middle School on Hudson Street said they watched in horror as sanitation workers crushed more than 50 pieces of perfectly good furniture — and perhaps twice that — in the back of a garbage truck.

 The damage would have been worse if Robert Nassau — whose wife runs a new private school in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, called the Greene Hill School — hadn’t rescued dozens of items lined up on the block ready to be pulverized.

He quickly hired and filled a truck full of the salvaged furniture — at a cost of more than $600 — after getting the OK from the sanitation guys.

“I just wanted to save the stuff from the trash. I saved half of what was there, maybe less,” said Nassau, 38, who snagged about 100 desk chairs, standup cabinets, filing cabinets and bookshelves.
