Our Morning Roundup

The D.C. Madam had alluded to suicide before.

No big surprise, officers cleared in the shooting of DeOnte Rawlings. Still no explanation of how the boy got shot in the back of the head.

Has the election gotten boring? Lots of stories lately about poverty and the environment. (Not that this stuff isn’t newsworthy, the Wax Museum is evening cutting ticket prices!)

Mild May Day. Protesters fail to burn things or break windows.

Prince of Petworth reports on the “temporary” closure of the 14U coffee shop at 14th and U. What’s a cafe gotta do to survive in this city? Also, unrelated, my friend thinks the cafe’s name is pronounced, “One four U” (”One for you.”)

Something to inspire the birds and bees this lovely spring day: Salman Rushdie gets fresh with Scarlett Johansson
