5 Things: 'Dangerous Fun' at Sycamore and Big!Compost Volunteering

What you need to know, pre-coffee.

 

1. Romp: It's the last Tuesday of the month, and hence, time for Tiny, Dangerous, Fun!. The evening promises an "audacious clown, unruly puppetry, sultry burlesque, and an array of antics and stunts all crammed into a tiny basement."

2. Weigh in: So Brooklyn Assemblyman Dov Hikind, who represents parts of Ditmas Park, had a Purim outfit that was not particularly well received, according to outrage that immediately flooded the internet. Check out a photo and some reactions on Gothamist. Thoughts?

4. Get hitched: DNAinfo has an informative piece on some top-notch Brooklyn locales for couples looking for places to tie the knot, including suggestions for the price-conscious. For instance, did you know that while Prospect Park's Audubon Center is quite costly, the Picnic House is "pretty darn affordable"?
