Dawn is a classic example, but you can really use any dish soap that’s designed to wash away grease and oil. Any natural oil will be effective.

Since 1989, teenage pregnancies have steadily fallen; still, teenagers gave birth to nearly a quarter of the city’s babies last year. Baltimore provides contraceptive counseling at the school-based clinics and even dispenses birth-control pills and condoms. Only a handful of urban districts have such extensive programs-largely because of community opposition....

When it appeared in children and transfusion recipients, that was a turning point in public perception. Up until then it was entirely a gay epidemic. Now everyone could relate.

Through a computer error, the court believed I was the Michael W. Klein arrested on June 12 at 8:05 p.m., for allegedly consuming alcohol while driving.

After all, how high can be the probability of a bowler picking three wickets in three balls be?...
