By the way, these are in stock and ready for pickup/shipping. So if you're buying as a gift, it will be there on time.<br>

How? A holiday bonus check of $1,000 for every permanent employee except those on a leave of absence. Even though that category technically includes him, Dr. Bedell won't take the bonus.<br>

Those streetlights aren't turning purple on purpose. It's a manufacturing defect.

It was invite-only; former Capital editor Rick Hutzell was one of those invites. So when news broke that the troubled tech company was shutting Bulletin down, we wondered what would happen to Rick and his newsletter, <em style="line-height: 1.5;">Meanwhile, in Annapolis</em>.
