Posts I Hope to Make Sooner Rather than Later

Though gathering and posting the information on community meetings takes some time, it's not nearly as involved as crafting opinionated posts on issues I feel strongly about, or transcribing the detailed notes I take at the meetings I'm able to attend. With that in mind, I figured in the meantime I could offer up a short list that I hope to address soon, with relevant links:

The future of the MLK, Jr. Memorial Library and the state of DCPL in general - Federation of Friends of the DC Public Library, DCist post that includes comments from yours truly
The Newton Theater (CVS at 12th and Newton) has been added to the DC Inventory of Historic Sites - Rebuilding Place in the Urban Space
Alarming number of recent muggings on Newton and in the vicinity - Brookland listerv and MPD-5D listerv (log in and search the messages for "Newton" or "mug")
Increasing issues with drugs, loitering, etc. at Taft Recreation Center and Langdon Recreation Center - Brookland listerv, Woodridge listserv, and MPD-5D listerv (log in and search for "Langdon," "Taft," and "Otis")
Gay bashing at Greater Mount Calvary Holy Church - City Paper's City Desk, Washington Blade, Washington Post
Arlington police chase ends with suspect shot and arrested in Brookland - NBC4.com (I can't find details in WaPo)

Anything else you'd like to see here?

Interesting list of topics. I didn't know the Newton Theatre had been added to DC's list of historic sites.

Have you made an endorsement for mayor as of yet? Also what about DC statehood for a topic?

Hateful: For Mayor, moi. Oh, wrong answer....What I do know is that I don't want Orange. Unfortunately, I haven't made it to any of the mayoral debates yet, and you know how debates get me all hot and bothered :)

On DC Statehood - yes, I absolutely want to address that, and I will one of these days (I have such a back-log at this point). But in the meantime, I suggest signing up for DC Vote's mailing list, and pretend the messages are being sent by me.

You need to redate this thing if you are going to repost it.

My apologies - I'm having some issues with older posts in the conversion to Blogger Beta. I'm in the midst of going back and labeling all my older posts and should be done by today or tomorrow.
