The Mall was meant for peace. It’s getting crowded with war.
The sylvan landscape around the Lincoln Memorial is a mess, and it will only get worse. On Oct. 24, a new memorial honoring those who served in the first Iraq War, the 1990-91 conflict that forced an invading Iraqi army out of Kuwait, opened just north of the Lincoln Memorial. It sits close to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial along Constitution Avenue and next year there are plans to break ground on new Global War on Terrorism Memorial shoehorned between the two of them. President Donald Trump is also trying to build a giant triumphal arch just across the river, which will loom over the western end of the mall, with yet another monumental addition, a riverside “Garden of American Heroes,” planned for nearby West Potomac Park.

North Point girls flag football falls in semifinals; Calvert High headed to finals
One year after its inaugural season could be largely described as patently mediocre, the North Point High School girls flag football team was clearly among the most improved squads in the Southern Maryland Athletic Conference this fall. On Tuesday evening, the Eagles came painstakingly close to completing an improbable journey when they suffered a 32-26 setback against defending 4A/3A state champion Clarksburg High in one of two state semifinals. North Point (12-2) had actually scored first on Tuesday then the Eagles countered a Coyotes’ answer with one of their own for a 12-7 lead at the end of the first quarter. One year earlier the Eagles endured a modest 4-6 regular season then won a pair of regional playoff games before falling to Wise in the region final. This year North Point was the SMAC regular season champion and later upended Wise in the region playoffs and Tuesday it hosted the state semifinals against the two-time defending state champions. “We’re definitely heading in the right direction,” said North Point second-year coach Davon Muhammad, a Gwynn Park High alum who is also the College of Southern Maryland women’s basketball head coach. “This team improved considerably from last year when we only
