People in 47 Other Cities Are Happier Than You. Men’s Health ranked how happy cities are based on the following: suicide, antidepressant use, and depression. Dallas came in at 48, after Austin (19), Lubbock (29, really?), Fort Worth (43), and Plano (10).

The Biebs Grants Highland Village Girl’s Wish. The 10-year-old got to meet the “hot” Justin Bieber in New York recently. She’s been battling cancer and is currently in remission. It looks like she got a lot of stuff during her visit. I bet when she got back to school on Monday and had all her Bieber gear, she was the coolest girl on campus.

Arrows Could Fly in Urban Areas Soon. There are a lot of deer in the area. Many of these deer are finding their way onto car hoods.

Arrows only travel about 30 yards. You should be pretty much safe.
