It Is Just About Sun Worship. Did You Know That Cathedrals Are Designed So Congregations Can Face East For Sun Worship? Christmas Is Also About Sun Worship Which Is Why It Is Celebrated In December, And Children Are Lied To Which Causes Long-Term Effects!

Does anyone have information about security camera placement and what model numbers and manufacturer's DGS, DPR and PSD uses for parks and recreation centers?
I am a contractor and a Senior Project Manager working to design and build and ultimately, maintain parks and recreation centers for the Department of Parks and Recreation. I have been quietly pleased with everyone's professionalism, dedication and passion. That includes full-time DC employees and their contractor colleagues.
I'm not sure who to thank, but I just got the newsletter from the DC Office of Tax and Revenue and was pleased to see one of the changes to taxes are, "Feminine hygiene products: The sale of feminine hygiene products is exempt from sales and use taxes." Well done DC!! Thanks Muriel Bowser! Way to remove the "pink tax."
