Once more into the breeches. New Yorkers need not be alarmed by the sight of squadrons of Redcoats pouring out of the subway at Brooklyn’s Grand Army Plaza on Saturday morning — this isn’t the second coming of the Revolutionary War, and the British aren’t back. No, these period costume-flaunting fighters are merely here to party — like it’s 1776. The occasion? The 250th anniversary of the Battle of Brooklyn — known as the largest skirmish by troop deployment during our nascent nation’s struggle for independence. These raring-to-go re-enactors aren’t professionals, either — they’re doctors, accountants, and other working stiffs “who happen to…

At first, Sacco thought it was a massive shark but then he “got a better look at it and thought, dang, that thing’s pointed”…

Lindsay Clancy committed the worst crime imaginable when she killed her three children.  She was disturbingly methodical about it, tying an exercise band to a door in the basement of the family home and strangling each of her babies, Cora, then 5, Dawson, then three, and Callan, then just seven months, one at a time.  How did she not stop, when they must have protested with fear and incomprehension?  And then, even more disturbingly, left her three children — her youngest son not yet dead — alone in the last moments of their desperately short lives, as she went upstairs…

Stomach-churning videos showing rubbery fruit, stretchy meat, and eerily resilient bread are racking up millions of views, with horrified users attempting to expose what they believe is an increasingly artificial American food supply. The clips are part of a growing genre of social media food sleuthing, in which everyday groceries are dissected to reveal what they claim is “fake” — or even “poisonous” — food. But experts say bizarre textures aren’t proof that shoppers are being poisoned, and many of the viral oddities have…
