District of Columbia: Department of Motor Vehicles
As part of its continuing crackdown on improper issuance of temporary tags, the DMV has been taking enforcement action against irregularities on the part of certain used car dealers. Once dealers obtain business licenses from the Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs, they register with the DMV for the special third-party privilege of reassigning vehicles between sellers and buyers. Without the privilege, a dealer must re-title a vehicle in the dealer's name before legally re-selling it to a buyer. Part of DMV's enforcement leverage is the ability to suspend or revoke the dealer registration. ... [Read More]

Washington, DC Travel Itinerary-- TEXT ONLY VERSION
In 1889 and 1890, the United States Congress required streetcar companies in Washington to convert from animal traction to some form of mechanical traction. Overhead wire use was also outlawed. Just having been granted permission from Congress to extend the company's line on East Capitol Street to 15th Street, the East Capitol Street Car Barn was built when Metropolitan was converting all of its lines to the electric conduit system. In an attempt to organize the numerous streetcar companies in Washington, Metropolitan merged with Washington Traction and Electric Company in 1899. Soon after, Washington Traction and Electric Company declared bankruptcy. The Washington Railway and Electric Company acquired their property, eventually stabilizing the streetcar business into an efficient network of electric railways instead of competing lines. The car barn continued to function as a storage and repair shop for electric cars. When Washington Railway and Electric Company merged with Capital Tr ... [Read More]

DHS | Department of Homeland Security | Remarks by Secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge Regarding Recent Threat Reports
Secretary Ridge:  I think it's fair to say that we have more specific information about potential targets that I think you can conclude maybe the subject of a particular plot.  Again, what is extraordinary about these particular sites is the considerable detail and quality of information regarding those sites. ...

But we must understand that the kind of information available to us today is the result of the President’s leadership in the war against terror. The reports that have led to this alert are the result of offensive intelligence and military operations overseas, as well as strong partnerships with our allies around the world, such as Pakistan. Such operations and partnerships give us insight into the enemy so we can better target our defensive measures here and away from home ... [Read More]

Largely because light trucks' share of the residential fleet increased from 1988 to 1994, the number of miles traveled by light trucks, rather than passenger cars, accounted for most of the increase in residential vehicle-miles traveled. Light trucks traveled 56 percent more miles in 1994 than they had in 1988, attaining an average growth rate of 7.8 percent per year. By comparison, the number of vehicle-miles traveled by passenger cars did not show a statistically significant change. ... [Read More]

Capitol Connection: Spring 2002: Washington DC VA Medical Center Happenings
Wayne Miller, a team leader at the Silver Spring Vet Center, was honored by being selected to carry the Olympic torch through the streets of Washington, D.C., on December 21, 2001, while it was on its way to the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. “After July 4, 1969, when I was severely wounded in Vietnam, resulting in the traumatic amputation of my left leg, I thought my athletic career had ended,” Miller said. “I worked hard to rehabilitate and participate in Persons with Disabilities sports. I was invited to try out for the Paralympics in Sit-Volleyball during the Olympics in Sydney, Australia, but I could not make the commitment to the time I needed to be away.” Carrying the torch in preparing for the Winter Olympics represented an amazing alternative, Miller said. “There I was, representing all the elite athletes of the world and thinking about America’s resurgence following September 11th while carrying the torch. I was proud to represent ... [Read More]
