Repeat offenders narrowly avoid jail time

By Lucy Fromyer | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Print »

Tom, a senior, has to take urine tests twice a week. He has to call his officer when he arrives at school, leaves for work and goes to sleep at night. He must attend countless drug education classes and be home by 9:30 p.m. every evening. He is in constant contact with an officer because he is on probation"but at least he's not in jail.

Un CD gira y con el clic de un botón, el ritmo de la música hispana retumba en las paredes del salón 163. Los pies de los bailarines se sincronizan con el bajo al ritmo de la música. En la salsa, ningún paso es repetitivo; la pista de baile está siempre abierta a la creatividad.

La Créperie is the place to be

By Anuja Shah | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Print »

Located in the bustling row outside the Pentagon City mall, La Créperie is an unexpectedly charming bistro with lots of flair for its fairly cheap eats. As the name implies, La Créperie serves mostly crépes (although they offer sandwiches and croissants for the unadventurous of stomach and weak of wallet). Entrees range from $6 to $8, and offer tempting vegetarian and non-vegetarian options; the crépes sucrées (sweet crépes), between $5 and $6 each, are inviting by themselves or as a dessert.
