Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Think Progress has some interesting footage from the SotU speech:

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Heh, I didn't Google, I remembered. (Of course, I just realized I forgot a 1pm meeting, but I didn't really want to go). Was Urgent Four the Central Park Jogger?

UB313 has been determined to be larger than Pluto. If Pluto is a planet it's hard to think of a reason why it wouldn't be the 10th planet.

Aha, NOT the Central Park Jogger. A different woman raped and beaten about the head and left for dead in Central Park. How cheery. Here's the Central Park Jogger [link]
