We know you’re all out of school, but we’re going to attempt to keep you abreast on Terrapin news this summer with a new feature. Similar to Fresh Cream, Ripe Produce will feature local Maryland news that’s “ripe for the reading.” Here are six summer stories you must know.

 

* Love bumper stickers? According to a new study you are more hotheaded than those who don't sport some car decor.

 

* People may be dropping like flies due to the salmonella tainted tomatoes, but at least local tomato growers are making a buck.

 

* Worried about counterfeit electronic goods? Well, look no further because the 2nd Annual Symposium on Avoiding, Detecting, And Preventing Counterfeit Electronic Parts will be held on September 9-10, 2008 at the University of Maryland! 

 

* Math can save your life! I guess I should have paid more attention in the fourth grade! Researchers from the University of Maryland (College Park) and Ecole Superieure d'Electricite (Gif-sur-Yvette, France) are using math to cure leukemia.

 

* That stupid budget! Because of a smaller budget high school students may now be at a disadvantage when they begin classes at UMCP. Bummer.
