Watch this powerful response #tyleradams #usasoccercaptain just beyond the boundaries of diplomacy and self awareness At 23 years old his poise, eloquence and command of personhood lend kudos to the people who modeled the best of character traits to him how he turned a purview of hostility and addressed all the loaded cynicism about race and culture into a power response was epic statesmanship "As long as you're educating yourself and trying to make progress, that's the most important thing." --@tyler_adams14

The Tribute to Brian Walker by Steve Landrigan March 1998 On a cassette tape recording this Tribute by Steve Landrigan to Brian Walker who died March 6 1998 is an eternal gift to be forever treasured. Steve Landrigan, a very dear friend who became friend in admiration and support of Brian for over a decade paid homage to Brian and to his grieving family, and loved ones with these most memorable words Steve spoke with intimate respect and affection on behalf of all our family His words were moving and poetic, and drew an ethereal painting of a life well lived At this remarkable service of celebration and life remembrance, the Steelpan musician was Robert "Bullet" Thwaites. His rendition of Amazing Grace was stirring and soothing contemplation. Known probably for all other artistic talents than his choir trained Baritone voice, it was Brian's singing of the hymn, His Eye is on the Sparrow that lent a prayerful lament and balming comfort to the congregation To echo Steve's thoughts for generations to come Brian Lives

Saving Mama Ducks

Now this story 

Mama Duck quacks in despair 

Her babies are at risk of dying 

They have fallen into a drain

 A human sees her plight or hears her cry 

Seeks help from the protectors 

The police officers who serve and protect And 8 little duckies are reunited

 And quack quack all the way home 

And the moral of the story

 We each can do our part To save each other 

And respect all creatures Human and those who share lives with us 

Congrats MCPD for showing you care 

From Montgomery County Police Department 

This morning a concerned resident approached the 4D Olney Substation about a mother duck that was acting strangely near the CVS on Olney Sandy Spring Rd. It turns out her babies fell down into a storm drain. MCPD and MCFRS came to the rescue. MCFRS was able to lift the storm drain cover and MCPD Officer H. Chen reached down and saved about 8 babies. #mcpnews
