Freezing Rain Possible Monday Morning

The Monday morning commute may be icy, according to the latest National Weather Service report.

It'll be an icy Monday morning in Prince George's County, according to the National Weather Service, where freezing rain and sleet are in the forecast.

A winter weather advisory will be in effect from 3 a.m. to 10 a.m. Forecasters predict that ice will create slippery conditions on roadways, bridges and sidewalks.

Federal agencies will operate on a delayed arrival schedule and employees should remain off the roads until after 10 a.m., according to an alert from Prince George's County officials. Federal offices will open at noon on Monday. Federal employees can opt to telework from home or take unscheduled leave.

Prince George's County Circuit and District Courts will also open at noon.

Considering the sorry state of sex education in schools today and parental reluctance for teachingRead 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 childrenRead 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.
