D.C. police have been warning bicyclists since March not to ride the Metropolitan Branch Trail alone. And they stepped up patrols on the trail then too. But it didn't stop a group of teenagers from knocking a 37-year-old Silver Spring man off his bike Tuesday and savagely beating him.

Mayor Ernest Troiano Jr. thinks he's found a way to put one of this Jersey shore resort town's problems behind it. Wildwood is ready to ban overly saggy pants, no ifs, ands or butts. The city is set to pass a law Wednesday regulating how people dress on its boardwalk. It bans going shirtless, as well as walking on the boardwalk with bare feet. But the provision that has gained widespread attention is a prohibition on pants that sag more than 3 inches below the hips, exposing eit...

WASHINGTON, DC -
The couple you're about to meet say there will be babies in their future.
But first, they have to get married. And a date like the one they chose won't roll around again for nearly another 90-years, their 12-12-12 wedding day.
Hilary Hemmatipour and Andre Campbell met in middle school. They were friends for years. In 2012, they began dating and they got married today - 12/12/12 - at D.C. Superior Court.
"First we're thinking his birthday and then it just dawned on us. 12/12/12. We have to do that," says Hemmatipour. They chose 12/12/12 because they think it might be lucky. And others agree.
Ten couples tied the knot at D.C Superior Court on this 12/12/12. That's twice as many as usual.
They were both born in D.C., but live in Adelphi, Maryland. There's a family dinner tonight, party of 12 maybe?
