The film industry is clearly running scared of Halloween and Major League Baseball. Don't waste your time at the movies—nothing good to see there anyway. Trick-or-Treating, costume parties, and Phillies games rule this weekend.

  • Scary headline of the day: "Multiple States on Verge of Collapse," according to the Huffington Post. While the related article is a little less dramatic, it is noted that in Pennsylvania "state workers will receive only partial pay on July 17 and July 24, after which paychecks will be withheld entirely until the impasse is solved." Awesome.
  • In other state-related news, earthquakes happen in Delaware? Who knew?
  • A man was found dead this morning in Fairmount Park. He had been shot several times.

First Farrah and then Michael. No, these videos don't have anything to do with Philadelphia, but we thought it would be fair to pay tribute to two cultural icons.

How about, instead of running, we dance? And instead of Bill Conti, we get Michael Jackson? Awesome.

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you.

Chicagoist is gearing up for this weekend's annual Air & Water Show along the lakefront. In what's becoming an annual tradition around there, staff member Todd McClamroch even got to fly with one of the participants. Chicagoist's decidedly opinionated readership was also appalled that one of their staffers found a popular local brewpub to be a great place to bring a kid. They also think that an unlikely activist for immigration rights should just take her medicine and offered their own suggestions to how the city should capitalize on the local music scene. And everyone thinks that a suggested tax on bottled water is a great idea.

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment.

Everything about Tuesday night’s Mountain Stage show at the Keswick was lush. The thick orange venue curtains, the tasteful production lights and ornate wall sconces, Larry Grace’s announcer voice spilling over us like some dark, rich chocolate. Margo Timmins of the Cowboy Junkies lulling us with "Follower 2." Martin Sexton’s soulful yodeling. Ben Arnold’s playful ode to marriage.
