For nearly seven months, Jim and Rachel Fenton have dealt with neighbors they deem unruly.

For the first time in a long time, The Eagle actually did something all everyone seemed to like. Our top headline for the Feb. 1 issue "Frat faces IFC allegations" struck a chord with the AU community, propelling our online readership to heights not seen since the Handverger impeachment trial of '09. Not only that, but by 3 p.m. Monday all copies of The Eagle were gone from the Mary Graydon Center, forcing Eagle staffers to refill the stands with papers from less visited areas. Reports have it that the library ran out sometime Tuesday. The fraternity story was so popular that it beat out both Eagle Rants and Alex Knepper's latest column for most-read story, garnering nearly 800 unique views in only two days. Rants trailed with 426 views and Knepper rounded out the top three with approximately 400 unique views.

Unbeknownst to many, in 1998 D.C. voters did some college students a solid by approving a referendum legalizing medical marijuana. Congress blocked the bill from taking effect until last year, and now the D.C. Council is trying to shepherd through a bill approving the necessary logistics to establish pot-dispensaries in the District. While details still need to be worked out - such as what exactly 'medical' means - it seems the bill has the votes needed to pass, according to the DCist, a D.C.-focused blog. If it does pass, D.C. would become to the 15th jurisdiction in the U.S. to allow medical marijuana, but only the sixth jurisdiction to actually dispense the herb.
