Our daily commute to work takes us right past The Daily Grind. This morning we noticed an empty parking lot and a lack of interior lighting so we turned around to investigate.

Coffee giant Starbucks will close all its doors from 5:30 PM to 9 PM to train their staff in "the Art of Espresso." Great Scott! The world is ending! The world is ending! NOT.
Today’s Photo of the Day comes from flickr user and Houstonist photo contributor laanba. Comments from the photographer: The lighting was very interesting the day I was there. There were storms coming in with heavy clouds, but it was also sunset. It made for some dramatic skies. We agree wholeheartedly. __________________________________________________________ If you have a passion for Houston and photography, consider joining over 450 of Houston's best photographers in the Houstonist Flickr Photo Group....
Protest over national vs. regional chains, the never-ending debate over the place of cars and bicycles in our metropolises, professional sports scandals, remembering a solemn day, and being issued a search warrant - it all happened across our sites this week! Another banner week at Chicagoist started off with daily reports from food writer Lisa Shames on her attempt to eat only locally grown and raised foodstuffs all week as part of a farmers market...

They celebrated their birthday by nabbing an interview with Entourage star Adrian Grenier, who misses NYC public transportation when he's working in LA. They also reported on NYU students protesting a band whose name is also known as a slur,...
Does anyone else suffer from crippling shyness at the gym? We read these painful exercise-inspired posts all the time on Craigslist's Missed Connections and thought we'd wonder aloud how common this problem is. People seem to have a really hard time finding love on the elliptical. For instance, the woman below doesn't even seem to care who she attracts; she just wants a gym boyfriend. 24hour fitness greenbriar and holcolmbe So many cute boys...
The Oak Forest neighborhood (just north of the loop near Ella) has a lot of history. The 60 year old subdivision was once the largest subdivision in Houston. It's now known for its affordable small frame homes and retro feel, with many Mom & Pop stores that have been in business since the early days. What it lacks, compared to other old areas like the Heights, is hip, artsy places to hang out. Well,...
