Boom
If you're wondering what those two booms were that shook your house a few minutes ago, they were sonic booms from military aircraft scrambling to investigate an "unknown aircraft" in President Obama's airspace, according to the FAA.
Congratulations Tutta Bella!
Pizza Today, the top trade zine in the pizza world, has named Seattle's Tutta Bella Neapolitan Pizzeria the "2010 Independent of the Year." Tutta Bella has made quite a name for themselves.

The tolls are administered electronically and flex to factor in traffic related to game days and weather. Benefits include... Maximum throughput: As many people as possible will…
