  3. Moms are crazy about new diapers, hope others put disposable diapers behind them

    SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- The average family will spend just more than $3,000 on disposable diapers for one child from birth through the time he or she is potty trained.  Now cloth diapers are making quite a comeback -- and are much easier than the kind your mother used on you.

  10. The Patuxent River's unsatisfied man

    If Maryland is &quot;America in Miniature," then the Patuxent River is the linkage for that miniature America. It is the largest and longest river whose watershed lies completely within the state. It traverses dense woodlands and farm villages of the Piedmont, populous urban and suburban communities, and then meanders downstream to a quilted landscape of fishing villages and tobacco barns before emptying into the Chesapeake. Born near Parr's Ridge in Carroll County and ending at Drum Point 115 miles later, the scenic river has sustained human habitation for more than 8,000 years, long before explorer John Smith named it 400 years ago. And because of its size and its pathway, it is a unique barometer of how Marylanders are meeting the challenge to restore and protect the waterways that are so critical to our natural, economic and cultural well-being.
