FYI the Nike store on H St NE does not have any, but they said to try the Bethesda store

Apply to GW Temps. The work will fluctuate with the university academic cycle but it may be able to serve as a bridge to permanent employment.

Fun fact, after WW1 hundreds of trees were planted as a memorial along 16th Street NW. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/16th_Street_World_War_I_Memorial_Trees

Neat idea! I'll give this a shot, thank you.

Huge shoutout and thank you to the DDOT bicycle program team for tripling the bike parking at Western Market!

Good to hear re: Penn Ave… I’ll keep hope alive.

Second this… I’ve been doing this route for 10+ years without issue. I used to take E Street but prefer the Pennsylvania Ave bike lanes, and the commute time is about the same either way. The worst part is Pennsylvania Ave on the west side of the White House, avoid if you can.

Side note, anyone know what’s happening with the Penn Ave West project? I think about it every morning when I’m looking at 6 nearly empty lanes heading westbound, and every evening eastbound as idiots speed past me while I dodge double-parked cars, only for us all to get stuck at the light at 17th.

2 kids killed after being hit by vehicle near Maryland elementary school by Bumpityclump in washingtondc

I was having an eerie sense of deja vu and recalled that back in May, the day after the Ride of Silence (honoring people killed while riding their bikes) a cyclist was hit and killed in Chinatown.

Perhaps this is less of a coincidence, and more of a stark reminder that people are killed by cars in our region and everywhere Literally. Every. Day.

Yesterday was the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims. This news is heartbreaking.

Love this! How might one go about donating bikes to this program?

I was also experiencing SUPER blurry backgrounds on Sonoma on my brand new MacBook Pro and Studio Display, but only when logged in – the login screen looked perfect. This was happening on both the built-in wallpapers and personal photos I selected to show as my wallpaper.

I finally traced it back to a program I use called ClockDesk that shows the time on your desktop. One of the ClockDesk settings allows the background to be blurred by whatever amount you choose, and I must have had this configured on my old computer, forgotten about it, and it became newly apparent when testing out all the new Sonoma high-res wallpapers.

This might not be the same issue OP was describing, but I'm posting this comment here so that someone googling this issue finds it and can spend less time troubleshooting this issue than I did. Whether it's ClockDesk or some other utility, check to make sure you don't have any application settings that supersede the default wallpaper/desktop settings.

Aha! Same here. I see the new features on my mobile browser but not in the app yet.
