Tuesday, June 26, 2012 If you're looking for some extra programming from me, you're in luck. I'll be hosting trivia tonight at Ventnor Sports Cafe in Adams Morgan. Here's the invite. The game starts at 8 p.m. and it should be a good time. Hope to see you there. All the options have been heard in the Columbia Pike streetcar initiative, and still, nothing's been resolved. There are residents who remember the old days in the '50s when the trolleys would break down and clog traffic for miles. There are others who are concerned that the boom in apartments over the next 10 years will bring too many cars to the area, choking the roadways, and say that something must be done. The Post's Patricia Sullivan reports on the latest in Virginia's transit battle. Two new libraries opened in D.C. recently and they are gorgeous. That's because the city commissioned London-based architect David Adjaye, whose grand vision for what a building full of books should be far exceeded anything the District has seen before. Adjaye is also part of the team designing the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture, and in short, his libraries are quite fly. The Post's Philip Kennicott reports on how the city nailed it, design-wise. When farm animals were turning up injured across Fairfax County a while back, it was a bizarre story to most. But now that details have been revealed in the case, it's really quite sad. According to police, a 17-year-old broke into Frying Pan Farm Park to film a video of himself riding a horse. When the horse threw him, the kid became angry and began to hit the horse. Things escalated from there. The Post's Justin Jouvenal explains the story of a kid with some issues. About a month ago, my old elementary school principal Tina sent out a warning. It was an infographic on how to change your e-mail on Facebook. I thought nothing of it, went through the process and got on with my life. But apparently, most users are just learning about this and folks are outraged. In short, the company displays a facebook.com address instead of your own address, meaning outside companies can then contact you. Unsurprisingly, people took to FB to complain. Things did not go well for the Nationals in Colorado last night. Strasburg started off well, looking good through five, then he hit Marco Scutaro in the head, a scary situation, and it went downhill from there. The bats were cold against Jeff Francis, who isn't exactly Nolan Ryan, and Strasburg's winning streak was snapped. It also happened to be 100 degrees at game time, apparently the hottest it's ever been for a game at Coors Field. The Post's Adam Kilgore has the gamer.
