The Prince George’s Plaza or "Mall at Prince George's" center area needs a better…Read More selection. The University Town Center area has a few empty storefronts that were supposed to be filled years ago. Although there's potential for issues there should be a electronics store in the area.

everyone should be, but for some odd reason, black only colleges are okay.

Very sad; my sympathies and thoughts are with the little girl and her family.

@ Mary Ann: You are absolutely right about the clouds. I live in Moore, OK. Those clouds were…Read More directly over my apt. building when we had the EF5 May 31st tornado. I was in my closet for an hour. Never lost power, but amazingly, there were down power lines right around the corner. The May 20th EF5 that hit Moore directly is about 2-3 miles from my apt. So thankful to have survived both. BTW, my hometown is Upper Marlboro.

Considering the sorry state of sex education in schools today and parental reluctance for teaching…Read More anything but abstinence (if they teach anything at all), I'd suggest that the sale shouldn't even be questioned. When we decide education means more than just saying "no," when boys and men learn that it's as much their responsibility as women's to avoid unprotected sex and that violence against women is wrong, and when we teach consequences along with abstinence, then perhaps the pill won't be necessary. I don't see that day coming for a long, long time. Now, if the course "Our Whole Lives" taught by Unitarian Universalists became standard education in every school, perhaps we wouldn't need emergency contraception. Education (knowledge) is power.

Betsy, I agree with a lot of your post; many parents seem to feel that if they tell their children…Read More about sex, it's the same as telling them to go out and do it. I'm willing to bet that more young people get into trouble by ignorance than by knowledge. (and I haven't read the text that you mentioned but yes, education/knowledge IS power).

By all means, give them the pill and let them stop trouble in its tracks. From that moment forward,…Read More encourage them to find safer ways to have fun.

I wonder how many people just paid fraudulent tickets this piece of garbage wrote. In addition to…Read More losing his job and going to jail, they should make him pay a fine equal to triple the dollar value of the bogus tickets. And they should strip him of any job benefits.

You will notice they never mention he lost his job, typical government official working for the hood…Read More known as Pee Gee county.

Don't be misled. You will actually be calling Moe, Curley and Larry (three stoogies) pretending to…Read More be the search committee.

IF YOU DON'T PARTICIPATE, DON'T COMPLAIN. AT LEAST THE THREE STOOGES PARTICIPATE
superrichard04 June 10, 2013 at 06:59 pm
Oh, I plan to participate. Nothing like a few good laughs on a Monday evening from three clowns.

Congratulations to all of the students! In todays' world, where businesses, govt. agencies, etc.,…Read More communicate on a regular basis with their counterparts in other countries, knowing a second language is a DEFINITE 'plus' in the job market. (and I know from personal experience, it's MUCH easier to learn a new language when you're younger! )

Back in the day, when you heard "Tornado warning," and the emergency broadcast system…Read More went into effect, it was because an actual tornado had been spotted. Now it seems to mean that in addition to an actual tornado, that there is a storm capable of producing a tornado? I was wondering... human nature being what it is, perhaps over time people will become more blase' about hearing "tornado warning," and think "oh well, that doesn't mean there IS one?" Perhaps some other designation could be used for the severe storms in the immediate area that are capable of producing tornados? Is there'someone involved in the weather service out there or otherwise knowledgeable about weather forecasts that has an opinion on this? Thanks!!
