  1. Seagirt Marine Terminal's super cranes celebrated

    He didn't get down on one knee, but Christopher Lee wooed his wife with a skyscraping crane she literally could call her own at the dedication of the port of Baltimore's berth capable of handling the world's largest cargo ships.

  4. Maryland has improved voter access

    This past November, I went to Florida to help mobilize voters to increase participation in communities of color and raise the voice of those often unheard. While there, I witnessed firsthand what we all have seen on TV — terrible voting lines that forced community members to wait hours to cast their ballots. However, these perpetual voting challenges are not isolated to Florida. Even here in Maryland, we have a long, long way to go to ensure that the right to vote for Marylanders is easy and accessible for all. Like in Florida, my friends and family here in Baltimore City also waited hours to vote. I know of many in our communities who have been so discouraged by the process that they don't vote at all.

  8. Who cares if Germans have to register their guns? This is America

    I read with interest James Maxeiner's op-ed, "The Bavarian case for registering guns" (April 28) in The Sun. Mr. Maxeiner advocates for the licensing of gun owners and registration of firearms, what he calls "sensible regulations on firearms."

  10. Sun treats Neuman badly over stormwater bill

    The glaringly evident lack of leadership in our state is so very obvious, it's disconcerting ("Spinning corruption," May 1). If Gov. Martin O'Malley would quit looking ahead at a possible run for the presidency, perhaps he and his cronies (one with...
