Here’s an idea - police officers using Foursquare. In times when revealing an officer’s exact locations is considered a touchy subject, a “constable” in Toronto is using Foursquare, a geo-location tool to connect with neighborhoods.

Toronto Police Constable Scott Mills, who’s also the Social Media Adviser for Crime Stoppers International, is encouraging officers everywhere to use foursquare to connect with their neighborhoods! Scott checks in when he’s giving community talks, to let people know when and where he’s on patrol, or to keep them posted on breaking crime scenes.

It takes the perfect drink to accompany the perfect song. Sometimes you need a little help identifying your thirst while enjoying X, where X stands for whatever band you happen to like. The website Drinkify, created last year during Boston’s Music HackDay, tells you what to drink with what band.

For Danzig, they recommend one bottle of PBR served cold which may conflict with hipster beliefs, but we won't judge. Let’s take it local and find out what to drink for some regional sounds. As always, please drink responsibly.

“The Buffalo Death Beam” - 10 oz. Havana Club Dark Rum / Serve neat. Stir quickly.

“The Cathedral Pearls” - 6 oz. Tequila Reposado / Serve neat.

• Related: “The Karli Fairbanks” - 1 bottle Red Wine / Serve at room temperature.

“The Globes” - 1 oz. Ouzo, 1 oz. Half and half / Combine in highball glass and serve. Stir vigorously.

While we were busy looking outside for snow, Spokane beat Seattle in the “Fixie Index”. Instead of a city blanketed in snow, we’ve got a bunch of fixed gear bicycles. Spokane ranked 25 in the nation. The index accounts for the per capita amount of fixies for sale in the city.

The Fixie Index can also be translated as the “Top 25 Hipster Places in America.” According to Priceonomics Blog, Fixies are an indicator of "hipsterness". They’re trendy and for some reason they can make any man wearing flannel and an unkempt bear look cool and any girl with ballet flats and leggings a goddess.

Orange County topped the index at the number one slot. Portland ranked number 14, Boise at 16. Spokane ranks 25 with a score of 9 and Seattle follows at slot 28.
