This Saturday's DPHH moved to Fado Irish Pub by DeafDC.com (1 comment)
Unfortunately RFD cannot take us at this time, so we had to move to DPHH a half-block down 7th St. to Fado Irish Pub. Beer lovers, don't fret, this place is just as crazy about their beer as RFD. Fado Irish Pub offers the complete slate of the popular Irish ...[keep reading]

Too Advantaged Yet Still Disabled by Chris Heuer (19 comments)
All right, let me get this straight. First the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) told Oscar Pistorius that he was ineligible for the 2008 Summer Olympics... not because he's a double amputee without a chance in hell of beating, much less competing against, "able-bodied" runners, but because he ...[keep reading]

My Name is Hilary and I am not a Hillary Supporter by Guest Blogger (11 comments)
By Hilary Franklin
For me, the race has been over since February 12, 2008. That's when I voted for Barack Obama. I had originally planned on voting for John Edwards, but then he dropped out. Since then, I have tried my hardest to ignore any news related to the "Road to ...[keep reading]
An "Anytime" Recipe by Oscar Ocuto (4 comments)
I've gone the semi-vegetarian route for this recipe...while I don't fathom 100% giving up red meat, or any meat, for that matter, this recipe really does tempt me! Today we have a two-egg omelet served over Oz's Beanilicious and garnished with cilantro along with Sriracha (Thai hot sauce). You ...[keep reading]
