The Walters Art Museum announced yesterday plans to purchase a 36,000-square-foot building at Park Avenue and Centre Street from the Maryland Historical Society for $1.5 million. The 77-year-old, three-story building currently houses the Contemporary Museum, the Maryland Humanities Council and storage space for the Maryland Historical Society. Its purchase will be made possible through a gift from an anonymous donor, Walters officials said.

Standing O's current production of "Mr. Marmalade" is the edgiest and most complex in its two-year history. Founder and artistic director Ron Giddings offers audiences this black comedy, which enters unknown theatrical territory to provide an entertaining and disturbing evening. In 2004, at age 25, playwright Noah Haidle premiered his savage comedy in Los Angeles exploring how irresponsible parenting can damage children. In his director's notes, Giddings recalls seeing the play in 2005 when it ran off-Broadway at the Roundabout Theatre.

Travis and Mabel Mountjoy vanished, too. The 17-year-old twins from Rockville -- child-prodigy physics students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology -- assumed leadership of an obscure Maryland research organization founded by their late father.

When Dukes pulled off, they embarked on a high-speed chase down Interstate 295 until catching up and placing the pair under arrest, charging documents show. Then it was time for the real police to take over. The men in the body armor were not Baltimore police officers or federal agents, but instead a little-known classification of security guards known as "special police," who are commissioned by the city or state to arrest and detain citizens - but only on specific properties.
