  • Local blog DCist reports that a coalition of over 100 ethnic and minority groups have released a design for a new museum on the National Mall. The National Museum of the American People will focus on the diverse groups of people who built America into the country that it is today. The proposed site for this new museum is at the end of the L’Enfant Promenade. The plan has not yet been commissioned by either the National Park Service, National Capital Planning Commission, or U.S. Commission on Fine Arts. [DCist]

  • Next time you fly Hong Kong Airlines, behave yourself! Flight attendants are now required to learn kung fu as part of their job training. Wing chu, as it’s known, is a close-range type of combat involving striking and grappling. The new training policy is to help cabin crews deal with “drunk and unruly passengers.” [Global Post]
