What do police officers do when they witness their colleagues abusing citizens or otherwise behaving badly? To what degree is modern law enforcement driven by a focus on generating statistics? Why didn't the cops beat me up when I threw rocks at them as a teen? Do you consider yourself a hero?

You know what would be a fun way to spend your Saturday night? Playing hide and seek with a huge group of Dutch people at an IKEA in Amsterdam.

Scandal-prone Illinois Representative Aaron Schock is resigning from Congress, effective March 31, according to a statement Schock provided to Politico. It reads, in part:

In a dark omen for the denizens of Idaho, thousands of dead snow geese rained down from the sky this weekend, seeding the state's fair plains with infected bird guts.

For decades the hulking former bank building at 190 Bowery in downtown Manhattan was stuck stubbornly sometime in the mid-1970s, covered in graffiti and oblivious to the remodeling happening around it. Recently, it was sold to a real-estate developer for $55 million, and soon it will become condos or some shit. Here's your last look inside.
