INSPIRATION for SIDE STREETS
Heywood Broun was a crusading columnist for The Tribune and The World in New York City from 1912 until 1939. Just months before his death in 1939, Broun wrote: "I would like to see some columnists do the side streets and the suburbs and chronicle the joys and tragedies of the ordinary run of people."

So I finally saw the first two seasons of The Walking Dead.
It did not suck.
It did, however, freak me out. It's filmed in my hometown in Georgia so I keep seeing landmarks I know. A little too close to home.
The only thing that bugs me is how good of shots everybody are. That and the endless streams of bullets without reloading
"But I do know Joey's sister indirectly (or foster sister) and I have heard stories of Joey being into shopping, designer wear, fancy coffees, and pedicures."
The end of season 2 was by far the most egregious example of unlimited ammo I've ever seen. I also get bugged when they waste a bullet putting down a zombie they could have just as easily stabbed.
But once you suspend reality, I find the show to be quite enjoyable.
Wait til season 3, Raisor! IMO that is when the show starts picking up.
I find looking forward to new episodes of Walking Dead to be more enjoyable than the actual quality of the episodes would suggest. For a show with as much potential and popularity as it has, they sure find a way to squander a lot of the former. I'm hoping Season 2 will end up being the "weird" season and that the rest of the show will build on seasons 1 and 3's more action and pulp horror sensibility. Also, one of the most annoying and inconsistent characters is dead so things should improve much more on that front alone. Heck, maybe they'll even find something for Tyrese's group to do this year.

I checked out "The Dresden Files" on Netflix last night. Meh. I only watched one episode and don't feel the need to dive back in.
fwiw, I didn't think I'd seen the show before, but I remember Bob's skull. It's possible I've read one of the books at some point. The more I think about it, the more likely this explanation seems.
edit: I just went to wikipedia and checked out the differences in the way Bob is portrayed in the TV series and the book, and the book's what I remember.

What's New for 2010
For 2010, the Chevy Silverado 2500HD gets a more powerful 6.0-liter V8 as well as some minor equipment changes. Highlights of the latter include newly standard air-conditioning for the regular-cab Work Truck and a USB port for the uplevel sound systems.
Heavy-duty pickups are a select breed. In fact, there is but a quartet of models to choose from: actually, only three, as two of them are platform mates. Yet the competition is stiff among these big boys, and the 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is right in the thick of the melee. Along with its GMC Sierra clone, the Silverado boasts an easy-to-handle demeanor and an inviting, high-quality cabin to go along with the immense hauling and towing capacities one would expect of such a workhorse.
Whether you choose the Silverado or Sierra, you can't go wrong. As far as its rivals, the Ford F-250 Super Duty is similarly comfortable and capable, but the GM trucks still offer a little more work capacity as well as a nicer cabin (especially with the LTZ trim). Last but not least, the Dodge Ram 2500 Heavy Duty has been redesigned this year, and though it can't match the Chevy's hauling capacity, it now has the nicest cabin in the segment as well as a quieter ride compared to its precursor.
The reality is that the differences among all these tough trucks have grown smaller as the vehicles have gotten better with each passing generation. As such, unless you have undying brand loyalty, your purchase decision will likely be made based on nuances such as how the seats fit you and what features you do and don't need.
Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2010 Chevy Silverado 2500HD full-size pickup is available in three body styles: regular cab, extended cab and crew cab. Regular cabs only come with a long bed, while the other two cabs can have a standard or long bed. Trim levels include the basic Work Truck, midlevel LT and king-of-the-hill LTZ.
The Work Truck comes with 16-inch steel wheels, air-conditioning, a trip computer, OnStar, vinyl upholstery, a 40/20/40-split front bench seat, a tilt steering wheel and a stereo with just an AM/FM radio. The LT adds keyless entry, tinted rear windows, full power accessories, a CD player, cloth upholstery and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Some of these items are optional on the Work Truck.
The LTZ is only available with the extended and crew cabs. It adds a locking rear differential, a heavy-duty trailering package (with an integrated trailer brake controller), alloy wheels, leather upholstery, rain-sensing wipers, remote engine start, upgraded interior design with wood trim, dual-zone automatic climate control, foglamps, 12-way power front bucket seats, heated seats, rear audio controls, Bluetooth and an upgraded audio system (with a USB port, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls and a Bose speaker system). Some of these features are optional on the LT.
Other options available on the LT and LTZ include a power-sliding rear window, a sunroof (LTZ only), a navigation system with real-time traffic updates, a rearview camera, rear parking assist sensors, power-folding exterior mirrors, power-folding and -extending camper mirrors, a Z71 off-road package (skid plates, off-road suspension, bigger stabilizer bar), the EZ-Lift tailgate, power-adjustable pedals and a rear-seat entertainment system (LTZ only).
Powertrains and Performance
The standard engine in the 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is a 6.0-liter gasoline-fueled V8 making 360 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed automatic transmission is standard. Optional is a 6.6-liter turbodiesel Duramax V8 that boasts 365 hp and 660 lb-ft of torque. It gets a different six-speed automatic and is the go-to choice if you require a burly tow vehicle (it also gets better fuel economy). Properly equipped, the 2500HD can haul up to approximately 3,900 pounds and tow up to 13,000 pounds.
Rear-wheel drive is standard across the board, with four-wheel drive optional. Although the Work Truck 4WD gets a traditional floor-mounted transfer case, the two other trim levels available on the Silverado 4WD get Autotrac, a knob-controlled electric transfer case that features an automatic setting that engages 4WD when wheel slippage is detected.
Antilock disc brakes are standard, while front side and side curtain airbags are not available. Curiously, stability control comes only on standard-bed trucks. A Safety package that includes power-adjustable pedals and rear park assist is optional, as is a rear parking camera.
Interior Design and Special Features
The 2010 Chevy Silverado 2500HD features two different interior designs depending on trim level. The Work Truck and the LT feature a more utilitarian trucklike dash design with an open lower center portion to accommodate the standard three-person front bench (a center console is added with the optional bucket seats). The LTZ, however, gets the same upscale design as the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban SUVs, lending the Silverado's cabin a classier feel with its wood and metallic accents. With either design you get straightforward controls within relatively easy reach. However, the available dual-zone climate control buttons are small and difficult to operate with gloves.
The front seats are quite comfy, but some editors found the pedals placed too far apart and the tilt-only steering wheel located too close to the dash. Space in the crew cab's backseat is very roomy, and most average-size adults should find the extended cab acceptable. We strongly suggest springing for the available rearview camera, which not only makes parking the behemoth 2500 much easier but also reduces the guesswork when you're hitching up a trailer.
Driving Impressions
A notable strong point is the 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD's well-weighted steering that provides the driver with a great sense of vehicle control. This is a particular benefit on tight country roads.
Although a heavy-duty pickup and its taut rear suspension will never offer a Cadillac ride, the Silverado 2500 is surprisingly comfortable over long distances. Both engines are strong, but if you can swing the price premium, the hefty performance and reasonable fuel economy of the Duramax diesel make it a very tempting choice.

Editor's note: Marc J. Randazza is a Las Vegas-based First Amendment attorney. He is licensed to practice in Arizona, California, Florida, Massachusetts and Nevada. He is the editor of the law blog, The Legal Satyricon.
(CNN) -- The headlines and blogs are all abuzz with the latest news: If a driver who's texting gets in an accident and you sent the text, you can be arrested! Terrible, right?
Actually, it's not true, despite what you may have been told by people who have seen two episodes of some lawyer show and think they are qualified to be legal analysts. Such ignorance about the law feeds misinformation that grows on itself, doubles back and makes us all dumber.
For people like me, lawyers, that is a wonderful thing. Why? Because people who have no idea what they are talking about wind up making simple legal situations complicated, ramping up the billable hours for all of us.
Remember the McDonald's hot-coffee lawsuit? That case, maligned from coast to coast, stands in the public mind as the one that says, "If you are stupid enough to spill hot coffee on yourself, you deserve hundreds of millions of dollars."
Anyone who knows anything about the law will tell you that the real ruling came down for the plaintiff because McDonald's had been warned time and again that it was going to hurt somebody if it didn't do something about the scalding temperature at which it served its coffee. But, in the name of more profits, it ignored the warnings. Even thereafter, McDonalds had the opportunity to pay the 81-year-old woman's medical bills -- she was seriously injured, with third-degree burns -- but it acted arrogantly.
McDonald's did something wrong. When it was called to task for it, the punishment had to fit the defendant. Fining McDonalds $1,000 just wasn't going to do it. Hitting McDonalds with a huge multimillion-dollar settlement? That did it. (The injured woman's $2.86 million jury award was later reduced, however, by a judge to $640,000.)
So what has that to do with the New Jersey texting case?
The New Jersey texting case will likely lead to more boneheads who get their legal acumen from "My Cousin Vinny" expounding on its meaning. This chorus shrieks that the New Jersey decision makes you liable for sending a text. But the court actually held that the person doing the texting was not liable in this instance.
The court held that theoretically, someone could be held liable for sending a text to a driver. But the ruling was very clear, and very, very limited:
"We hold that the sender of a text message could potentially be liable if an accident is caused by texting but only if the sender knew or had special reason to know that the recipient would view the text while driving and thus be distracted."
In other words, yes, you can be held responsible if you cause an accident by sending a text message. But only if you knew that the recipient would look at the text message while driving. If you had any reason to have any doubt in your mind, then you will likely not be held liable.
So if you send a text message to someone, you don't need to call your lawyer or your insurance company. But if you send someone a text message and they respond back "driving, leave me alone" and then you keep sending text messages, perhaps you might be found liable.
The only thing that is certain is that this case, which makes plenty of sense, will serve to continue to allow the common law to grow, while those who would like to bring ignorance to our knowledge of the legal system will continue to succeed.

And if I'm asking that question, which is the best spec then as well, like that question I have seen different combos.
I see alot of different combo's of glyphs on multiple Guardian Druids and I was just wonder what are the 3 best glyphs I could get on my Big Bear.

And if I'm asking that question, which is the best spec then as well, like that question I have seen different combos.
There isn't a "BEST" talent/glyph setup anymore, and the only Glyph you'll really want all the time is Maul, with the other 2 slots depending on group setup, playing style and basicly just personal preference.
The same is true for talents, you can pick either Feline swiftness or Wild Charge in the first Tier, Forcfe of Nature probably isn't the best talent on Tier 4. The last Tier I tend to pickDream of Cenarius because I prefer Nature's Swiftness (NS - Healing touch - extra Mangle damage is a nice combo every minute)
So here is the spec I'm personally going for: http://www.wowhead.com/talent#dydX|zRx
But honestly, you're better off picking one yourself and then ask (yourself or us) if that is the best option for your playstyle.

I also have the maul glyph, but maul is a button I almost never press while tanking. I like the might of ursoc glyph: for a CD that lasts minutes, I want more than a 30% health gain. (I get 30% from renewal.)
On the talents, check out incarnation: it's quite a powerful CD (it's rather like the holy avenger talent for paladins), giving you a burst period with lots of rage to use on defensive abilities. And it makes you into an armored bear.
Something felt missing on my bear until I picked up wild charge. I guess I could have charged with skull bash, but I'd prefer to reserve that for an interrupt and being able to charge twice is good.
The best setup really varies per fight and your play style. It probably seems weird that there's no "cookie cutter" spec anymore but there really isn't. looking at a standard set-up just to have something ready id probably go (in order of Spec tiers) feline swiftness-Constant movement speed increase to get boss where it needs to be as fast as you can, Renewal-good oh s**t button when your healers are bad or you f**ked something up haha, Typhoon-this tier is probably one of the less important tiers i take typhoon because the roots break as soon as they take dmg and having a slow on raids is like meh. Incarnation-this is really probably gonna be best for a LOT of fights the other options in this tier aren't as attractive. Mighty Bash-Stuns are always good. Especially looking back at Rag i use to have to pop into bear form as a healer to stun closest add stuns can be very important for certain fights. Heart of the Wild-this one shouldn't really need an explanation the other options are kind of null. i could see nature's vigil for aoe heavy fights it might help keep your raid alive.
As you can see a lot of this stuff can vary for different encounters its really what you feel comfortable doing. now for Glyphs theres a few you will really want for sure.....Glyph of Fae Silence for interrupts, Glyph of Maul, Glyph of Rebirth...those are the 3 that i would take as tank for main glyphs and for minor id take Glyph of falling grace for anything that would cause falling damage. why not right? and glyph of stag because its awesome.
Im mainly a healer but ive done every spec at some point or another in raiding situations (worst as cat)
if you agree with what i wrote and ever need anything else answered feel free to PM me : D
There's actually a really nice guide on here where they break down the glyphs and why.

From Green Right Now Reports
The punchline to that headline, in case you don't know: "So stop fracking with it."
New Yorkers do enjoy wonderful water, from upstate watersheds that filter the water the old fashioned way, with plants, trees and earth.
Yet little-known to many people, even many in the Big Apple, Manhattan water could be at risk from upstate natural gas drilling.
Actor Mark Ruffalo, who's been lending his voice to activist groups try to slow, stop or at least make the drilling more ecologically sound — believes the threat of contamination is real.
After visiting other communities in Pennsylvania where natural gas drilling that used hydrofracking methods had promised jobs, but left behind a trail of dirty water, flammable wells and duped leaseholders, Ruffalo said he felt compelled to join the movement to stop fracking in upstate New York, where he lives with his family when not filming.
"What I saw was completely shocking to me, I saw people with no voice. Their state government had turned their backs no them them," Ruffalo said in a news conference Monday. "They couldn't take showers, they couldn't drink the water…Their homes were filled with useless equipment incampable of filtering their water."
Ruffalo concluded that he had to try to dispel what he sees as the myths around natural gas drilling: That it is a completely local fuel (international companies will sell it on the global market, and speculators will make money too) and that it's helpful to local communities.
Ruffalo thinks the industry obfuscates the harm it does by promising to champion local communities and lift them up with jobs and big lease contracts, but the truth is that "communties are worse off afterward."
Clean energy, not more fossil fuels, is where the country should be headed, he said, and New York State could lead the way by holding the line on fracking. He noted that a solar power bill pending in the legislature pledges to produce 20,000, more than 18,000 jobs projected by the natural gas industry for the state.
Ruffalo has been working with environmentalist groups over the past two years to raise awareness about "fracking" or hydrofracturing, a drilling method in which operators force millions of gallons of water into the earth to break apart shale rock and release natural gas reserves.
Fracking has fast become popular method of accessing hitherto inaccessible gas stores. But environmentalists worry about the large volume of freshwater being destroyed in the process as well as the danger to the undeground water supplies that can be contaminated. Numerous people in the Marcellus Shale region, which cuts across New York and Pennsylvania into Appalachia, have complained that nearby gas drilling contaminated their water wells. Similar stories have emerged from the Barnett Shale drilling region in Texas.
The natural gas industry maintains that no underground water source has been contaminated by natural gas drilling, though media reports dispute that. Industry experts promote natural gas as a clean solution or bridge fuel to the future because it burns cleaner than gasoline in combustion engines. Natural gas emissions are relatively clean compared with the greenhouse gases emitted by cars and trucks powered by gasoline.
T. Boone Pickens has based his "Pickens Plan" around moving vehicles to natural gas as a way to make the U.S. more energy secure, and many lawmakers now support his effort to convert heavy vehicles to natural gas from dirtier burning diesel.
Still, environmentalists point out that natural gas is not so eco-friendly at the front end. Drillers push toxic chemicals into the earth, yet have been exempted by the federal government under the "Halliburton Loophole" from revealing the chemicals involved.
Ruffalo joined with the Natural Resources Defense Council on Monday to discuss pending legislation in New York State that could extend a moratorium on drilling for another year, allowing time for the state to better study the threat to water supplies.
Two other bills being considered in Albany would require drillers to get permits for the water they use, or in another case, subject their hazardous waste plans to better scrutiny.

The second oldest city in Georgia, Lawrenceville became part of the United States in 1821. When you're looking for Lawrenceville apartments for rent, you may notice that the original town square of Lawrenceville still remains the heart of downtown. Period landmarks in the city include the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse, which was voted one of the top 30 places in the nation to get married, and the Lawrenceville Female Seminary. The population in Lawrenceville is approximately 29,600.
Lawrenceville is known for attracting visitors who end up becoming residents of the city, and you may also decide to find Lawrenceville apartments for rent during your stay here. There are plenty of unique things to do in Lawrenceville, and you'll want to start at the Aurora Theater in the heart of downtown. There you can take in plays and performances and experience the art and culture that the city has to offer. Hit the ballpark for a Gwinnett Braves minor league baseball game, and finish off the night on a spooky Lawrenceville Ghost Tour. There's a local outlet mall close to the city called Discover Mills, and if you're into water activities, Lawrenceville is home to a 22-acre manmade lake called the Lawrenceville City Lake. If the weather is nice, head to the Historic Courthouse lawn for free concerts during the summer months. Rock'n Rib Fest and a summer farmers markets add to year-round local events.
Once you've found some Lawrenceville apartments for rent, you'll be glad to know that the cost of living in the city is 6 percent less than the national average and 0.3 percent less than averages in Georgia. However, rental rates for apartments in Lawrenceville are a little pricier compared to national averages, at 7.3 percent higher and 24 percent higher than rental prices in Georgia.

You may spend a few extra minutes commuting to work, though. The average commute time is about 33 minutes in Lawrenceville.
If you are looking to further your education, there are a number of colleges close to many Lawrenceville apartments. Lawrenceville is proud to be home to Georgia Gwinnett College, the nation's first four-year public college created in the 21st Century and Georgia's first four-year public college to be established in over 100 years. Lawrenceville isn't far from Emory University and Morehouse College, so there are plenty of options to explore when you decide to enroll in higher education.
There are about 300,000 jobs in Gwinnett, with 43,000 of these jobs are available at one of Lawrenceville's top employers. These include Gwinnett County Public School System, Gwinnett County Government and Gwinnett Health Care system.

The web is about to get a lot more complex. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, a nonprofit entity responsible for operating and managing the domain name system (.com, .org and .net), is planning to expand the available extensions and has accepted applications from entities that would like to own certain domains. For example, Delta Air Lines has applied for .delta so the airline would have complete control over who uses .delta and how it is used.
For just that reason, the American Bankers Association and the Financial Services Roundtable have collaborated and applied for .bank and .insurance. Applying for one of these new domains is not easy or cheap. The application guidebook was 300 pages, the application asked 50 in-depth questions and the organizations spent $370,000 applying for just those two domains ($185,000 per application). But the price is worth it when you consider the potential cost of dealing with fraudulent banking websites.
Consumers need to feel confident when they go to a .bank or .insurance site that a trusted third-party has vetted these domain names, said Doug Johnson, ABA vice president of risk management in a press release. New financial domains will be a detriment rather than asset if they cannot be trusted. Thats why our associations are leading this effort.
The European Banking Authority noted similar concerns in a letter it sent to ICANN: The potential for consumers of financial services to over-rely on what might be perceived as regulatory endorsement of the companies operating under such TLDs is immense, and the risk for new types of fraud and phishing can be enormous. The same can be said of the danger for confusion regarding the operation of legitimate websites by true financial institutions and regulated entities. This could lead to the need for them to establish costly and complex legal or commercial initiatives in order to safeguard their trademarks from frauds and abuses.
Unfortunately, one other application was submitted for the .bank domain by Radix Registry. Radix also applied for the .insurance domain, as did Progressive Casualty Insurance Co. and Auburn Park LLC.
ICANN expects to publish the results of its initial evaluations of applications in December or January, but the entire evaluation process could take much longer. Cross your fingers that the ABA and the FSR did not spend all that time and money for naught.
