It ain’t over, Sen. Reid

By Alex Priest · Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2010

Thanks for taking the time to read my first column. Every other week on this page you’ll read my unsolicited advice to those who - I believe - need it the most. They may not think they need it. They may not want it. And they might even be a little pissed that a college student would think himself precocious enough to write something like this. But here I am, and I’m going to tell it like I see it.

New year brings new music to District venues

January 13

While some musicians focus on both their music and personal appearance, alt-rock band “We Are Scientists” balance their serious music with hilarious personalities. Upon visiting their homepage, one will see advertising for “equestrine upholstery,” or simply, horse blankets. It’s such a contrast that you wonder what the hell these guys are all about.

RETURN OF THE KING — If you’ve got the time to visit the District’s museums and galleries, you can stumble across some great exhibits, such as the National Portrait Gallery’s “One Life: Echoes of Elvis,” a collection that follows the life and fame of Elvis Presley. Galleries such as the Hamiltonian Gallery on U Street offer deeper works, such as the images of store mannequins in Africa taken by Washington, D.C. photographer Frank Hallam Day.

Elvis graces National Portrait Gallery

By Olivia Stitilis | January 13

Second semester has arrived, and with it the winter chill we love to complain about so much. Gone is the hope of a rare 60-degree fall day and here to stay are winter coats, rosy cheeks and never-ending comments about the cold weather as we wait for the shuttle to appear.

So in that spirit, here are a few of the films we’re most looking forward to losing ourselves in over the new year.
