Joe Macken, a truck driver from upstate New York, turned a basement hobby into a 50-foot replica of New York City that went viral on TikTok and landed a spot at one of Manhattan's most prominent museums. Macken's model, built from balsa wood, foam board, and Elmer's glue over more than twenty years, contains an estimated 800,000 miniature structures spanning all five boroughs, parts of New Jersey, and stretches of suburban Long Island. It sits on more than 300 large foam boards, interconnected like puzzle pieces, and measures nearly 30 feet wide. Each inch represents roughly 160 feet of real city. The exhibit, titled "He Built This City," opened in February at the Museum of the City of New York on Manhattan's museum row near Central Park…Open

Five allied nations wrapped up the annual Medusa military exercise on a public beach outside Chania, Crete, complete with drone strikes, marine landings, and jets roaring overhead, while vacationers in swimsuits looked on from behind a police cordon. Greek and Egyptian forces led the hourlong finale on Friday, sending marines and special forces operators sprinting through plumes of colored smoke onto a strip of coastline near the village of Maleme. Fast boats roared ashore. Helicopters banked low. Simulated fire crackled across the waterline. And a few hundred feet away, tourists clutched their phones and tried to figure out what, exactly, they had stumbled into. The exercise, which began September 10, drew military units from France,…Open
A routine traffic stop on a highway outside Oslo turned up nearly 67,000 American Eagle silver coins worth roughly $2.65 million, the proceeds, prosecutors say, of a major U.S. investment fraud.

A routine traffic stop on a highway outside Oslo turned up nearly 67,000 American Eagle silver coins worth roughly $2.65 million, the proceeds, prosecutors say, of a major U.S. investment fraud. Norway's economic crime unit, Okokrim, announced Thursday that three Norwegians, two men and one woman, were convicted of aggravated money laundering and sentenced to up to two and a half years in prison. Two British nationals who also faced charges were acquitted. The verdict is not yet final, and both sides retain the right to appeal. The case began with a phone tip. In April 2025, someone alerted police to a van swerving on a highway near Baerum, a suburb west of Oslo. Officers pulled the vehicle over and found tens of thousands of U.S.…Open
California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill creating the state's first standalone tax credit for post-production work, but the $10 million in startup funding is a steep cut from the $100 million the bill originally sought, raising questions about whether the gesture matches the scale of the problem.

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill creating the state's first standalone tax credit for post-production work, but the $10 million in startup funding is a steep cut from the $100 million the bill originally sought, raising questions about whether the gesture matches the scale of the problem. Newsom put his signature on AB 2319 on Friday, offering a 35 to 50 percent tax credit for qualifying post-production expenses, editing, sound, music, visual effects, finishing, and related work, completed inside California. Assemblymember Nick Schultz, a Democrat from Burbank, carried the bill. In a notable break from the state's existing incentive structure, productions do not need to shoot in California to qualify for the new credit. A…Open

Actor Mark Ruffalo is leading a public pressure campaign to stop California Attorney General Rob Bonta from settling an antitrust lawsuit against Paramount Skydance's $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros.

The post came as Bonta and 11 other state attorneys general entered advanced settlement talks with Paramount CEO David Ellison over the pending merger, which would combine two of Hollywood's largest entertainment companies under one roof. The fight pits Hollywood's progressive activist class against a Democratic attorney…Open

Munich's mayor opened the 191st Oktoberfest on Saturday with two swift strokes of the mallet, but behind the beer tents and brass bands, German authorities deployed AI cameras, hundreds of police, and international task forces to keep six million expected visitors safe.

Thousands of revelers had already stormed the beer tents that morning, scrambling for prime bench seats before the ceremony began. The festival runs through Oct. 4 , and organizers expect roughly six million visitors, the vast majority from…Open

Steven Kolb, the two-decade leader of the fashion industry's most powerful trade group, stepped down Friday after footage showed him physically silencing animal-rights protesters at a New York runway event, a confrontation that cost him his career in under a week.

The incident unfolded on Sunday. By Friday, the man who had shaped American fashion's institutional identity for twenty years was out. The speed of his fall tells its own story. Kolb apologized earlier in the week, then took a leave of…Open

Netflix's Spanish-language film "La Bola Negra" won the People's Choice Award at the Toronto International Film Festival on Sunday, a prize that has sent nearly every winner since 2012 to an Oscar best-picture nomination.
