The nuns' habits didn't seem to be habitual garb for three young women so Colombian police asked them to step aside when they arrived on the Caribbean island of San Andres on a flight from Bogota. Police Capt. Oscar Davila says the three women appeared nervous, and the fabric didn't look right. The chief of the island's judicial police says more than four pounds of cocaine (two kilos) was strapped to the legs of each woman. Davila says all three broke into tears and launched into ...

Metro will soon release a commemorative SmarTrip® card for President Obama's Inauguration. The reusable plastic card will come pre-loaded with a One-Day Pass that provides unlimited travel on Metrorail on the day it is first used. Each commemorative SmarTrip® costs $15.
One dollar more than the cost of a regular one-day pass and $4 less than the cost of purchasing a SmarTrip® card and One-Day Pass separately.
The commemorative SmarTrip® card can be reloaded just like a regular SmarTrip® card.
Metro is preparing to be the transportation mode of choice for hundreds of thousands of visitors on Inauguration Day 2013.
On Inauguration Day:
- Metrorail will open at 4 am and close at 2 am. - Metrorail will provide 17 consecutive hours of rush-hour service -- from 4 am until 9 pm. Peak fares will be in effect during that time. - Normal weekday parking rates will apply at Metrorail parking facilities. Parking fees will be charged as you exit the garage and may be paid by SmarTrip® or credit card. - Metrobus will operate weekday rush hour service in the morning, followed by an early rush hour in the afternoon. Many routes will operate on detours due to Inaugural events. - MetroAccess will operate identical hours to Metrorail and Metrobus. MetroAccess customers are encouraged to plan extra time due to increased traffic throughout the service area.
