Scott broom is following up on that issue tonight as marylands legislators are in the missed of a debate over marylands gun laws.

Gail Marilyn Randolph is working on a task force recommending change. To report people that have been civilly committed to any Psychiatric Hospital and found to be dangerous. Reporter meanwhile the university of maryland was largely powerless in this case despite an Online System called bayda for students to report disturbing behavior or other potential threats green had not been put on the schools radar. Green lived with his roommates off campus where no rules prohibit students from having guns. So in the opinion of a lot of folks, there are loopholes all over the place in this case. Among the many recommendations, the task force i just mentioned issued a recommendation to legislators that would force police, therapists and doctors to report anyone who makes a threat into the statewide gun date base. Currently that is not a requirement. Reporting live at the department of Mental Health and hygiene in baltimore, scott broom, wusa9.

Please be aware we are running trains both directions. A man jumped in front of the train at gallery place chinatown station this morning. The recovery effort led to long delays and forced metro to single track from archives to mountain Vernon Square stations. Metro is reviewing video but it appears there was little else the train operator could have done. The investigation is ongoing, but from the position of the train in the platform or on the platform it is apparent that the operator did, in fact, apply brakes. The Transit Agency says this is the second time someone has taken their life in a station this year and the eighth time since metro launched a Suicide Prevention program last year. First it was transfats, then sodium, now a major Consumer Watchdog Group is going after the sugar in soda. The center for science in the Public Interest announced their latest petition today. This is how much High Fructose Corn Syrup this Consumer Group says the average american drinks each year. Thats the sugar in soda. Thats about 70,000 calories per year. The center for science in the Public Interest is calling on the fda to limit sugar content in soda and other sugary drinks. The group says current levels are harmful leading to obesity, Heart Disease and other health problems. When youre faced with a diabetes epidemic, a situation in which 2 3 of American Adults are overweight or obese, the government has a responsibility to do something about that. The standard 20ounce bottle of soda has about 16 teaspoons of sugar, double the daily recommendation. Experts say the problem is its easy to consume too much sugar when its in liquid. Ask them to just eat 16 teaspoons of sugar. Its almost impossible, but you can gulp it down in a minute or two and go back for another. Beveragemakers say theyre doing their part noting calories have come down over the past 15 years and the center for Consumer Freedom which opposes more regulation and gets some funding from the Food Industry says this latest proposal is overreaching and unnecessary. It doesnt take a phd in nutrition to recognize if you drink too much soda pop, you might put on weight, but the same thing is true for all food with calories. They seem to think they should be protecting us from ourselves. Its insulting and ridiculous. Consumers are divided, too. Let people drink what they want. Somebody needs to help them in order to protect their health. This petition from cspi is the latest push to target the soda industry. New york city under mayor bloomberg is about to put in place a ban on sodas larger than 16ounces in restaurants and other businesses. The fda will review the c fbi petition.

Bruce leshan joins us now. The president thinks the benefit is way bigger than the cost. Thats right. You and me and millions of other parents have struggled to find really good high quality preschool for our kids and to pay for it, of course, just like kindergarten and grade school. The president says this is something state, local and federal governments ought to provide for all of americas children. Youre not the king.

Weaker educational takenment, higher rates of juvenile drink attain. , higher rates of juvenile delinquency, lower Graduation Rate and lower adult earnings. Critics have their own studies suggesting that the benefits of universal preschool are fleeting and the costs are sometimes much higher than predicted. With everything he has on his plate it is really going to be interesting to see if president obama pushes this really hard.
