Fun Fun Fun Fest 2007 Recap from Super!Alright! on Vimeo. Austinist attended a town hall meeting about proposed noise ordinances that could undermine the city's future as the Live Music Capital of the World, and lamented the possible loss of Texas's only feminist bookstore. Throughout the week, they interviewed a bunch of indie fashion designers and D-I-Y websites—Etsy, Ornamental Things, 31 Corn Lane, and Aorta Designs—for the upcoming Stitch Fashion Show. They also did...

Good morning, Washington. Make it to the polls yesterday? If so, we hope you did so before the sun went down — it got cold in a hurry last night, as the area rapidly moved from warmer-than-usual temps to colder-than-usual ones. CapitalWeather is saying that the weekend should be warmer, at least. Election 2007: The results are in, and it looks like it was a good night for Virginia's Democrats. The Dems picked up...

Good morning, Washington. Glover Park's unlikely strip club row along Wisconsin Ave. saw a scary crime over the weekend, as police are still looking for a suspect after an employee at Good Guys was doused in gasoline and set on fire by an angry customer. The victim, a 26-year-old man, has third degree burns over 80 percent of his body and is currently listed as stable but critical. The assailant had been kicked out of...

It might be one of the most disheartening experiences in Washington. You leave your house one day, walk out to your car, and you see a big piece of paper on the windshield. "Please tell me the clubs have just gotten more aggressive with their advertising," you think to yourself, but no, it says, "DO NOT MOVE THIS CAR." You rush to the street side of your vehicle only to find 40 pounds of orange...

We try to keep the Weekly Feed focused pretty intensely at food happenings here in Washington, but there is one item that is too good to pass up. We wanted to make sure we touched on the knockdown-dragout between New York Times critic Frank Bruni and restaurateur Jeffery Chodorow (who you might remember from NBC's The Restaurant with Rocco Dispirito). Here's the short version of the story: Bruni reviews Chodorow's Kobe Club, pans it with...

We don't know about you, but it's friggin cold out there. Well, not for some of you. It seems as though places that are supposed to be cold are warm and places that are supposed to be warm are cold. Or maybe that's just us. Either way, we're freezing.

And what's going on this Thursday morning, Washington? Three Prince George's County strip clubs are suing to block new rules that are supposed to go into effect today. WJLA reports that they are seeking 'unspecified damages and recovery of legal fees' in an effort to avoid new regulations such as performances needing to take place at least six feet away from customers. Ah, just another day in the life of the PG strip club...

Shanghaiist probably knows a little more about China than the Chicago Sun-Times. Giving them the benefit of the doubt on that one. The city does to have a music scene. Don't even front like they don't. They also have Dorito bananas and white guys shopping for wives. What they don't have is any more tolerance for jaywalkers. Bostonist sees Boston and Somerville each whip out their art and face off. A plagiarized novel is the...

Good morning, Washington. Today will be sunny with highs in the upper 80s, so you can leave that umbrella at home. We were happy to read that the steamy hot temps will ease all week with highs expected in the 80s and evening lows in the 60s. While we were cruising Flickr to find today's photo, taken by Aziz Gökdemir of the ever-photogenic interior of the National Building Museum, we came across an interesting...
