The city's ongoing homelessness crisis is clearly stripping some residents of their good senses and humanity.

In other news, the National Endowments for the Arts and Humanities in the US announce their latest rounds of funding for the arts, the Jewish Film Festival in New York returns, and a velvet dress that once belonged to Princess Diana is up for auction.
