Now we know why Anthony Weiner wasn't too eager to run for mayor (and not just because he would have lost, although there's that, too): It's because he's settling down. A spokeswoman for Weiner revealed over the weekend that the congressman proposed to Huma Abedin, a top aide to Hillary Clinton, back in late May.

Oh pity the poor denizens of Williamsburg. The erosion of hipster trust funds is leading their greasy little utopia to slowly devolve into some sort of Mad Max-esque, post-apocalyptic real estate wasteland, just like Miami! So says New York Magazine.
