Dead couple leaves mean will: A Brooklyn couple, murdered in their home last month, spoke from the grave in their drafted last wills, leaving strange messages for the people they detested in life. "To my brother, who I know hopes to be in my will, well, here you are," wrote Mark Schwartz, 50, as he left zilch to his sibling, Robert, in a 2006 draft. In an earlier version, Schwartz had already left his brother "the sum of zero ($0.00) Dollars," adding, "I believe this sum is fitting, as you are probably the most greedy person I know." And, "Robert, brothers are supposed to want each other to be the most they can be and make the most money they can. You, on the other hand, just sat in judgment of me and were always jealous."

Superintendent Elizabeth Lolli says cheerleaders were instructed to wear long shorts and T-shirts underneath their skimpy uniforms at a pep rally Friday. "The skirts that the cheerleaders wear are very short, and they're very tight and they're slit so they can do the gymnastics that are required of a cheerleader," she said. Parents say they paid a lot of cash for the uniforms and think the girls should be allowed to wear them.
