Last year where I live there was a storm threat with sky conditions similar to the ones in these pictures, and some people paid no attention. The ones who listened to the warnings took cover and watched from their basements as their houses were lifted into the sky...but they survived.

Nickelodeon Star Victoria Justice Performing Tonight at State Fair

Are you going?

First there was Bieber. Then there was Gomez. But tonight, Timonium gets... Justice.  Nickelodeon star Victoria Justice is the third act for a third straight year the Maryland State Fair has landed, appealing to a younger "teenybopper" crowd.  Wow, I feel old for putting "teenybopper" in quotes.  These acts have been wildly popular in the past with Justin Bieber's concert  two years ago selling out in—literally—minutes and Selena Gomez attracting over 10,000 to Timonium.  Justice will be performing on stage alongside Max Schnieder at 7:30 p.m. in the infield of the fairgrounds racetrack. Tickets are still available for tonight's concert.  For Timonium residents and out-of-town fairgoers, the star power that comes with someone like Justice …
