2. Soon to be former editor of the Nashville Scene blog Pith in the Wind.

Which I did not know until I looked her up. Here's a bit from Wikipedia:

"On May 6, 2008, Garrigan announced her resignation<13> as editor on the Nashville Scene blog Pith in the Wind. She characterized her departure as "anti-climactic" and "not a protest resignation, a corporate cost-cutting measure or a veiled firing." She added that she had imposed a five-year expiration date for herself as editor, and would be cutting that short because she felt she had accomplished what she set out to accomplish. Garrigan's last day as Scene editor was slated for June 30, 2008. As of this writing, a replacement has not been announced."

Hope this helps.
