Southwest Cancels Flights to Baltimore. As of this writing, things seem calm in Charm City. But the airline canceled at least 10 flights before last night's curfew even went into effect, amid fears of rioting. Independent Investigator Clears Richardson Mayor. Last month, there were calls for Laura Maczka's resignation over accusations that a relationship with a developer affected her vote on zoning. Last night, a parade of citizens remarked on the relationship at the city council meeting. An investigator cleared Maczka on the ethics violations, but said she may have violated the Texas Freedom of Information Act when she didn't turn over emails between her and the developer in question.

The Mavs responded gracefully, and the Rockets eventually apologized. Dallas Cowboys Reveal Plans for Tomorrow Night's Draft. There aren't really any revelations here, but that's how this story is billed. On a personal note, I've declared myself eligible for both the NFL and NBA drafts every year since I graduated high school. I feel like, despite my perceived lack of athletic prowess and my controversial statements about giraffes, I could really help the right organization. So far though, we haven't found a GM gutsy enough to pull the trigger. Here's hoping tomorrow night is the lucky night.
