Armored Car Loses Money on I-27
If you picked up any cash on Interstate 270 on Friday -- say a $50 bill, for example -- officials would like you to return it.
Maryland State Police said they recieved a call at 9:05 a.m. Friday for a report of an armored car that had money flying out the back door.
According to police, the armored car was driving northbound on Interstate 270 south of Route 109 when it lost a load of dollar bills in varying amounts up to $50. Investigators believe the money fell out of an unsecured door on the armored car.

SECRETARY CLINTON RESPONDS TO ANCA; CONTINUES TO CHARACTERIZE GENOCIDE AS A CONFLICT INSTEAD OF A CRIME

When will the cherry blossom trees bloom?
The question on everyone’s mind these days: how will the warm weather affect the blossoms? The answer will come less than a week from today, when the National Park Service gives the peak bloom prediction with the Festival on March 1. The Park Service assures us that it takes prolonged periods of extreme heat or extreme cold to change the blossoms in a significant way, so there’s no need to worry yet. And one thing is certain: the 2012 Centennial Celebration honors the 100-year anniversary of the gift of trees with an unprecedented five weeks of events and activities. So regardless of mother nature, the Festival has everything needed for a fantastic start to spring, with celebrity talent, community spirit, unprecedented arts and culture, and so much more. Get involved with the City in Bloom, check out the latest events, and look for the free Festival App in early March. See you at the Festival! |

Washington, DC, Armenian School Student Excels in Academic Competition at Johns Hopkins University
For the second consecutive year, Robert Shekoyan—a student at the Shnorhali Armenian School of St. Mary Church of Washington, DC, USA—was recognized for his exceptional achievement in an international academic competition administered by the Center for Talented Youth at Johns Hopkins University.
Robert was among the highest scoring participants on the 2010 International Mathematics and Verbal Talent Search in the District of Columbia, and one of the students in grades three to six to achieve highest honors in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region. He was formally recognized at a ceremony held on November 6, at Johns Hopkins University.
The Talent Search, a program established in 1979, is run by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth, and is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education. Students participating in the Talent Search go on to complete additional testing in the fall and spring, with final results being announced in early fall of 2011.
Robert is currently a fourth-grade student at St. Alban’s School of Washington National Cathedral. He is the son of Dr. V. Shekoyan and Nune Shekoyan-Pambukhchyan. The Shekoyan family is actively involved in the life of St. Mary Church, where Dr. Shekoyan has served as the vice-chair on the Parish Council.
