Critical
I saw this line of police cruisers down on Canal and stopped to ask one of the officers about the practice of driving around in long lines of patrol cars with their lights on. One officer told me the practice is called Critical. Another described it as, “a counter-terrorist manuver.” When asked whether it works, he replied, “We haven’t been attacked yet!”
While taking this photo a woman asked what was going on. When asked if she had ever seen this phenenon before she said no. I explained and she replied, “At least I can get on the subway now. I was worried something had happened.” This is probably a common reaction as I have not seen publicity or press about this practice.

One of my favorite photos of the 2005 Michael Jackson trial taken by Mark Velasquez. Sadly it’s not up on his Flickr stream but you can see it on his website. Jacko wasn’t so great at the end but I never get tired of listening to Off The Wall or Thriller.

Twitter’s Dirty Little Secret?
I still love Twitter but these findings aren’t that surprising considering the Ashton Kucher VS. CNN battle and other Twitter press that likely created a ton of accounts that aren’t actively used.

I am officially the last person in New York to leave MySpace
I can’t believe it took 2 years of disuse to finally cancel the fucking account.

"Laura has a few openings in her schedule for new music students. If you live in the Portland area and are interested in taking lessons, please email your info to mailbox@mctbold.com. Laura teaches guitar (with a focus on fingerpicking), claw-hammer banjo, and songwriting."
Uh, Laura is Laura Veirs. If you don’t know her music go look her up; Year of Meteors, Carbon Glacier and Saltbreakers are fantastic albums. If you live near Portland go take lessons for the love of god! This is like Death Cab teaching guitar!
