  1. Orioles' Jim Johnson, Rays' Fernando Rodney show importance of closers

  5. Turning it around

    As a new school year begins, my preparation as a principal has been punctuated by an unusual and unexpected invitation to Washington D.C. This month, I was named a Champion of Change at the White House by a program run by the Office of the President.

  7. Unfriendly fire in Afghanistan

    The increasing frequency of attacks on U.S. and NATO troops by members of the Afghan security forces they are supposed to be helping has reached the point where American commanders are rightly concerned that the mistrust engendered by such incidents threatens to interfere with the completion of their mission.

  11. Duty in Afghanistan prevented flyover for Arbutus Fourth of July

    It came as a shock to many, including Arbutus Fourth of July parade organizer George Kendrick, when at 12:29 p.m. on this year's holiday there was no sound or sight of the four A-10 jets that traditionally streak across the sky to kick off the event.
