1. One of the greatest band names ever. Admit it. As a kid, didn't you once want to go out there on Halloween night and pulverize the punk into stringy melon chunks?
2. Stripped of his 7 Tour de France titles, and banned for life by the International Cycling Union, Lance Armstrong has been asked, today, to return the 4 million dollars earned in those events. In a sport where doping is rampant; where every competitive country has come under scrutiny; where there have been allegations and expulsions for years, none has been as shocking as Lance Armstrong's fall from grace. Uncovering the most sophisticated deliberate doping scheme to ever deceive the public (tens of millions of American taxpayers dollars in funding to the USPS Armstrong's cycling team) and ironically 'rope-a-doping' cynical media too, all fell like a house of cards, because 2 women: Betsy Andreu, and Emma O'Reilly sick of the cover-up and lies, were the first to come forth with stories of the PED: steroids, testosterone, growth hormones, and EPO. Bullied. Called crazy and jealous. Hit with lawsuits by team Armstrong, the 2 women ultimately said what no one really had the conviction to say: the emperor had no clothes on.
3. Lena Dunham. We love you, babe! Her ad for Obama is sensational in the Dunham 'way'; clever, contemporary, cozy and ballsy (ya know what I mean) in sista hood parlance...get out the vote. Our bodies. Our selves.
4. Half Moon Bay. Home of the Great Punk.
