    This really weird thing happened to me today. We pubbed an interactive graphic about EVs and gas-powered cars... and I got a slew of emails. And the ratio of insightful critiques to ad hominem attacks was like 5:1. Weird, but hopeful.

    Dear DC friends, do you or do you know anyone who needs a 1-bedroom condo to rent? My Columbia Heights place is on the market, and I must say when I read the listing, it made me want to move back in! (I only moved out because I moved away.)

    National Journal did this with layoffs about a decade ago. There is never a good way to lay people off, but this has got to be one of the worst and most unsettling ways to do it.

    BuzzFeed made its layoffs a live reality show reveal. Staff were told 47 of them would be laid off, but they'd have to wait to find out if they were included. If they didn't receive an email by 1 pm then their jobs were safe.

    Good piece on why environmental groups are split in big fight over power-line to bring Canadian hydro to replace New England gas power. A reminder that power-lines often get as much local opposition as the pipelines that get national headlines.

    This article really resonates with me and I'm sure it does to many other women who have similarly dealt with inappropriate behavior by men in professional settings. Worth a read.

    "If Cuomo believes he was just being playful, then perhaps he never interrogated himself on whether his playfulness was the same with men and women, and he never asked himself, honestly, what he was hoping the outcomes of these interactions would be."
