  1. Who will be our next profiles in courage?

    One of the great works in politics and political rhetoric is John F. Kennedy's Pulitzer Prize-winning Profiles in Courage. Courage has always been important to the Kennedys, who created a Profile in Courage Award a generation ago, and the awards, although usually liberal in their basis, have included conservatives as well. The 1956 work itself is ideologically pretty balanced.

  2. Aberdeen: We as a people need to take time out for civility

    We were doing a little early spring cleaning of our bookshelves the other day. Between some pages of a book was a clipping that we had saved. The subject of the article just happened to be something that we would like to share. We wonder what is...

  3. Reduction in assessments meaningful for buyers and sellers in Catonsville and Arbutus

    Reassessment notices have been going out to homeowners in Group 1, those in western Baltimore County, since late December. In almost every case, the reassessment is lower than it was three years ago, according to Owen Charles, deputy director of the State...

  6. Ethics board scores a near miss

    The Baltimore ethics board came close to showing some real backbone this week in seeking higher standards for the mayor's use of free tickets she gets to the city's sports stadiums and <a href="http://findlocal.baltimoresun.com/downtown/music/music/1st-mariner-arena-baltimore-music-venue">1st Mariner Arena</a>. The board is demanding better record keeping and that each ticket be used for a legitimate city purpose. Unfortunately, the mayor's administration is proposing to define "legitimate city purpose" so broadly as to make the restriction meaningless, and the board appears inclined to go along with her.

  7. Revolving door for government staffers questioned

    Right now Rick Abbruzzese works at a desk a few feet from Gov. Martin O'Malley's office in the State House. In two weeks, he'll report a few blocks away to the Annapolis law firm Rifkin, Livingston, Levitan and Silver LLC, where he will likely lobby his soon-to-be former boss.

  9. Why there won't be real gun reform in the wake of Sandy Hook

    I have no expectation that the tragedy of Sandy Hook Elementary School will move this nation and its leaders toward any kind of meaningful gun control.

  12. On eve of fiscal cliff, Congress acts like squabbling children

    I constantly hear adults talking about the importance of instilling "values" in my generation. For the last 14 years, my classroom walls have been plastered with obnoxiously bright posters touting the necessity of civility and respect for others. At school, compromise among students is stressed as a sign of maturity.
