Occupy DC update: Despite being told over 12 hours ago that the Occupy camp was going to get forced out, it appears to be going strong as of now. “#OccupyDC reaches 1:00 AM mark with no police, not even a scout in the vicinity,” claimed occupier John Zangas on Twitter (he took the photo above). “Hunker down time.” Here’s the livestream; it seems pretty quiet for now.

What’s going down at Occupy DC right now. The National Park Service said it would begin to crack down by noon. 

So this is happening, thoughts?

The last, saddest waffle at Cap City Diner. Thanks, Matt, for everything—I’m sorry that one of the best places in D.C. got fucked by our frustrating, insular, and petty local political scene.

DC Metro workers accused of robbing fare machines to buy lottery tickets
Stealing to gamble: Two DC-area Metro workers have been arrested, accused of a scheme to steal coins from fare machines and spend them on lottery tickets. Federal prosecutors allege the duo, John Haile and Horace McDade, defrauded the machines while on shift together; the investigation was launched after a source reported that Haile would regularly buy lottery tickets using bags of $500 or so, all in coins. Is it that hard to find a Coinstar, man? Haile’s records, and this is the crazy part, show $150,000 in unexplained income since 2008. As lottery officials told the authorities, to secure even just the winnings confirmed to them, he had to have been buying “an extraordinary amount of tickets.” (Photo by Eric Fisher) source

On the Seventh and Eighth Days of Christmas …
Express gave to me, stuff to make an Express tree.
Ornaments and topper.

Express’ Christmas tree, decorated with radical mini-Express covers, just made an appearance on BuzzFeed. But it pales in comparison to The Washington Post’s tree. What’s it like? Click over.
