| | | The Suicide of LeAnn Leutner BY ELIZABETH STUART  Lincoln Edward Amory Leutner-Sporn crawls across the multicolored carpet, ignoring a pile of blocks and a stuffed animal and heading straight for a thick psychiatry text. Chubby, with a round face and sandy blond hair that's parted and neatly combed to the side, he paws through the pages of the book, clumsily opening and closing it with dimpled hands. His father, Dr. Jonathan Sporn, a director of clinical research for the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, chuckles as the baby abandons academic pretense and shoves the book in his mouth. At 55, Sporn has white hair. He has kind eyes and a crooked smile. "If he eats it, that's a good sign," he jokes. "That's the biggest tribute Lincoln gives." Spo... more >>
| | | | | | | | Big Snow Buffalo Lodge Shutters After Co-Owner Yoni David Is Shot BY DALE W. EISINGER  In the west wing of Bellevue Hospital, Yoni David sits dazed in a hospital bed. His shattered left arm is in what the doctor calls an elevation dressing, a cheesecloth-like tube that keeps his hand raised. He's been here since he was shot at the Bushwick DIY arts venue he co-managed, Big Snow Buffalo Lodge, on July 17. He'll spend his 24th birthday in this bed. The hospital staff just transitione... more >> | | | | | | Home on BK Grange's Urban Organic Oasis BY HANNAH PALMER EGAN  It's around 7 p.m. on the hottest Friday in recent memory. On a roof in the Brooklyn Navy Yard overlooking smokestacks, shipyard cranes, and city bridges, the East River glittering quicksilver just beyond the dry docks, Brooklyn Grange managing partner Anastasia Cole Plakias points to a row of ruffled green leaves, streaked vibrant purple, and instructs me to pick one and take a bite. I do as sh... more >> | | | | | | The Spectacular Now Is This Summer's Best Romance BY ALAN SCHERSTUHL  Hey, Hollywood can still do romance! Even since the marketeers worked out that the kiss kiss bang bang formula could be profitably split, with bang bang movies getting wide releases and the kiss kisses sold only to that slim niche demographic called "American women," movie love stories had gotten frustratingly rote and maudlin, the passions of Nicholas Sparks's characters taken as the given that... more >> | | | | | | | | Heavy Hitters: Damn Yanquis and Cartoon Vampires BY R. C. BAKER  The camera pans across battered cinder-block walls, a muddy infield, concrete stands shorn of awnings, and palm trees silhouetted against gray skies. On the soundtrack, an old-timer reminisces in Spanish about his days on a Cuban baseball team: "Nobody could beat us! Do you remember the game with the Yanquis?" Our perspective sweeps over the deserted field as he recalls a tough American pitcher s... more >> | | | | | | | | Runnin' Scared It's been eight days since the Anthony Weiner sexting saga began anew. Not that I much mind being bombarded by cell phone photos of hard dicks. In my house, at the office, on my phone, on TV. Wha... Fork in the Road We say goodbye to July today, and we can't think of a better reason to skip out of the office a little early and head out for a cheap drink. Here are a few places that will be offering up deals ...
