DC Evacuated
> Washington, DC and Arlington, VA were evacuated on Saturday night as part of an emergency drill executed by the Department of Homeland Security in conjunction with the District’s executive branch.  The immediate evacuation is estimated to have successfully cleared approximately 60% of the Capital Region's residents. Widespread system failures were reported, however, including overcrowding of the Metro system, traffic jams, and road closures.
>
> Widespread looting has been reported throughout the region. Preliminary reports indicate that at least $1.5 million dollars in property damage and nearly twice that amount in stolen goods. Evacuated homes made tempting targets to thieves and District Police are working mandatory double shifts to investigate and complete burglary reports.
>
> Despite several attempts by looters to breech the National Gallery of Art, Library of Congress, and the Smithsonian, National Park Police were able to prevent all but the most minor of damage to these federal properties.
>
> Six murders occurred during the chaos of the evacuation drill. Suspects in two of the killings have been apprehended. A further eight deaths are blamed on the drill, primarily older and disabled residents dependent on caregivers who could not or did not report to work.
>
> Several lawsuits have already been filed against the District government and dozens more are expected. Watchdog groups are unanimously condemning the surprise drill and it is expected that many District and Federal officials will be fired or forced to resign in the coming weeks. 
>
> Unnamed sources throughout the city government have stated that there was a serious, immediate, and credible threat to the Capital’s security which prompted the evacuation.  The nature of this threat, however, is not being revealed due to the upcoming 10-year anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks.

Tragedy for Jayne Jonestown

 

A Jayne Jonestown concert got way out of hand in New York this evening as mass panic struck the crowd after a faulty pyrotechnics display where Green Fire was supposed to be shot straight up behind the performers instead shot out at the performers and over the crowd, severely injuring several concert-goers and destroying the band-equipment.

Politician Stoned to Death After False Accusations
 
Around the world tonight, the Deputy-Governor of a small Indonesian state was stoned to death yesterday. According to our local Indonesian news affiliate, a flash-mob which had assembled on the front steps of the Governor’s mansion turned violent as the Deputy-Governor and his made their way out of the residence. Deputy-Governor Agung Azhur was accused publicly, earlier this week, of being a “vampire” by several members of a rival political party with extremist views. Though the accusations were obviously false, the fear and panic that they caused in this mainly rural state helped lead to this terrible tragedy. The President of Indonesia has called for a national day of mourning.

August 24th, 2011

Register for hotel rooms at the Northeast Event: http://www.starwoodmeeting.com/StarGroupsWeb/res?id=11082...

Rooms are $99. For all you who may live close by and you're thinking, what do I need a hotel room for? If you share with three friends, that's $25 a night for guilt free partying, access to an indoor pool, hot tub and late night shenanigans. Also, we are obliged by contract to fill 15 hotel rooms, or game has to pay to make up the difference. So far, six rooms are booked.

Even if you were thinking you would drive home, consider staying at the hotel!
