Sorry there are so many crime posts today but I feel it is important to share. At least there is some good news as well – From MPD:

Detectives with the Metropolitan Police Department announced today the arrests of two adult suspects who are believed to be responsible for multiple armed robberies in the District of Columbia.

The robberies occurred on the night of Monday, February 13, 2012 and continued into the morning hours of Tuesday, February 14, 2012. The locations of these robberies were in the Third, Fifth and Seventh Districts in the 1400 Block of First Street NW, 1900 block 11th Street NW and the 3700 block Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue, SE respectively.

The suspects’ vehicle was a grey 1995 Lincoln Town car bearing DC tags. During the robberies, the suspects took US currency, cell phones, clothing and other property from victims.

On Tuesday, February 14, 2012, police arrested 27-year-old Aaron Walker and 24-year-old Shadonna Fate. These arrests follow two significant arrests of additional suspects who were both apprehended within the last five days in connection with multiple armed robberies and car jackings.

Anyone who has information regarding these crimes should call police at 202-727-9099. Additionally information may be submitted to the TEXT TIP LINE by text messaging 50411.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
