With trigger happy incompetent cops like the jack booted thugs in Prince George's county Maryland, if you live in that county you best lock up your dogs, your children and your wives, not from the criminals, but from the cops!

A North Korean woman, now hospitalized, has been on hunger strike outside of the Chinese Embassy on Connecticut Avenue for the past few weeks. Few, sadly, seemed to notice.

Etete, the ethiopian restaurant on 9th NW, now has an upstairs. So what was once a tiny and crowded establishment is now pretty roomy. I got seated right away on a Friday night at 7:30. Usually that would have been at least a 30 minute wait where you have to hound the staff to remember you're even there.

Why I Hate DC has seen a revolt among its readership in the last week or so. Check out the comments on the posts since its new author took the reigns. It's the sad downfall of what was once a great local blog.

I work in the building above Georgia Brown's (1500 K) and heard that a woman was assaulted by a homeless person in McPherson Sq. yesterday (8/11) around 7 pm. Do you guys have any information about the incident?

Blue Duck Tavern at 24th and M St NW was on fire yesterday night. We were having dinner there when we had to be evacuated. The fire dept came and using chain saws and axes broke apart most of the kitchen to find the fire. Cant find anything about it today online.

Did a small tornado rip through Takoma DC? As this afternoon's storm came through, we heard a loud noise and looked outside to see the roof coming off a storage building @ Kansas & Blair. The roof was hanging over the CSX/Metro tracks, then was blown again down onto Kansas Ave, which is currently blocked off. It looked to us like some of it could have landed on the tracks. We notified the authorities immediately, but they didn't feel the need to check the tracks. Trains are still rolling through full speed, but a passerby just told me he had just been at Providence Hospital and had seen uprooted trees flying around.

Apparently there is a suspicious package outside Woodley Park station -- the station is still open though, but everybody has to use the elevators.

Due to some medical emergency at Farragut North, the Red Line between Dupont Circle and Judiciary Squares is operating on one track only. To be clear both the Shady Grove bound and the Glenmont bound trains are sharing the same track. Expect major delays.

DCRA announced "winners" of street vending licenses outside Nationals Park. Why did this take so long, and why does it appear that the licenses are only valid for one month? I want cheap peanuts!
