soliciting the activities. there are special guidelines that the police will be looking at, but the police know the activity that they see. so they will disexperts them. if they choose not to move they can arrest them, and they have 180 dance in jail or up to $1,000 in fines. >> just to play devil's advocate for a moment, i know that it gives police the power to arrest anyone, even if they don't necessarily observe any activity such as prostitution. >> there are specific criteria in the bill, what the police will be looking for, but also, most of these are repeat have offenders, and the police know what there. so this just -- people who are standing around, if you and i were standing, they wasn't necessarily come up and ask to

us move on. it's the behavior that's associated with it. the beckoning to cars that pull up behind one another, all those type of activities that are associated with prostitution and soliciting. >> i know the punishment for this crime is six months in jail and a fine of up to 1,000. that enough to deter prostitution. >> well, it is still a misdemeanor. this is one way to help them the police to give them the tools that they immediate to eradicate this particular activity. the community has said that they don't want it, it's an unwelcome activity. not only in this community, but throughout prince george's county. so we're going to do. you can certainly understand the community concerns. hopefully this will help clean up their community. andrea harrison, thanks for coming in. a health scare at an ocean

did i sob, then the flip side is a lot of people would say that he didn't invent a lot of this stuff, he just made it better. >> absolutely, just as edison invented a lot of things but also refined a lot of technology and made a lot of things work. steve jobs just had an eye that was incredible. he was a college drop-out who audited a class on design and that, he said, changed the way he looked at things forever. if you look at something as simple as the iphone what jobs brought to it in terms of design and stale and ease of use really changed things. >> do you think the aesthetics and the stripping down and perhaps the fact that he was so in tune with human behavior and human interest, that will be the lasting legacy, or is it something technical that he built one particular thing? >> well, his lasting legacy, i think, will be making technology accessible. we've had personal computers for a long time.

they weren't easy to use. they weren't understandable. they weren't something you could grab on to sort of naturally. but whether it's the ipad, the iphone, or even the mcintosh with its operating system 10. >> what struck me is how quickly. the ipod was introduced in '07, at least the first iphone in '07, and look how far we've come in just five years. will we continue at this rapid pace without somebody who is such a visionary? >> he left a good roadmap in place. he hand picked his team of executives who were running it, tim cooke, phil schiller among them. so the innovation will continue for a long time. we'll miss steve jobs' flare but the legacy will go on. >> you have sort of a wacky idea as you put it yourself, perhaps having a stamp

immediately with steve jobs' picture on it. >> last week the postal service dropped the requirement that someone be deceased for at least five years before they end up on a postage stamp. even though steve inks innovations are kind of helping to put the postal service under, i think a commemorative stamp for an american genius, vision after the accident, steve jobs would be very much in order. and certainly the sooner the better. >> thank you for coming in. i mentioned the internet was a place where a lot of folks go to express their condolences and voice their opinions. our facebook page, myfoxdc.com, a great opportunity for you to do the same. you can see brian says, a brilliant man, lost before his time. steve jobs is beyond brilliant. his innovations changed our world. he will be missed but never forgotten. may god bless you.

happened, aim here for the duration, and the war is just beginning. >> reverend shuttlesworth later survived a beating and chest injuries from a police water canon. now birmingham's airport is named after him. he was 89 years old. interior secretary tim salazar may have left the door open for changing an inscription on the new martin luther king. >> i visited the memorial yesterday. i looked at the quote. i looked at all the other quotes. it's a wonderful memorial, but there are some issues that we'll reful solve and work on once we get past october 15th. >> he's talking about one side of the memorial that carries an inscription that quotes dr. king saying, "i was a drum major for many."

invisible crisis as well as the fact that they can also offer help to families. >> talk a little bit more about that call to action. there's the education portion, but i'm sure that you want people to actually physically do things. >> absolutely. and the things that they can do are very much offering help by volunteering, either at fad pantries or community centers, also donating or providing comfort for families that are in your community experiencing food insecurity. one of the other things, the reasons that i'm here is also because of pnc financial services. it is a partner of ours, and they've actually donated $250 million for early childhood education. it's another reason why we're here. >> dr. jeanette betancourt, thank you very much for your time. coming up on the news edge at 11:00, two women assaulted in the early morning hours as

that. with clear skies we'll have our radiational cooling tonight, and all that is left to see from our area of low pressure that's plagued us for so many day, just a couple of showers left over in maine that is it. all of these clear skies courtesy of the area of high pressure. it's going to influence pretty much everything east of the mississippi, and now the west begins to get a little unsettled. high pressure in the east means they get the low pressure out there, and they will deal with a little bit of rain and maybe even agents bit of snow. overnight expect to drop to 44 in winchester, 47 for warrenton. frederick, 45 degrees. baltimore 47. and here in d.c. under clear skies and those lighter winds, we should drop to 53 degrees. evidently a chilly start in the morning, but we'll get back up into the afternoon hours to about 71 degrees.

a fall perfection day, light winds tomorrow out of the east. so not even quite as breezy as today. but at 8:00 in the morning expect to find some 40s in the suburbs. so a jacket for the kids in the morning. by noon, 66, lots of sunshine, and by 5:00, 70 degrees, plenty of sunshine. 84 for fredericksburg and 72 for leonard town. a sneak peek of that weekend, we're rolling with lots of sunshine again, and we think on sunday the temperature will get up to about 80 degrees. so you may actually to have get that sunscreen out as we head into the weekend. your five-day forecast, our temperatures, as we mentioned, slowly climb to about 80 degrees through the weekend. still dry monday, just a few clouds at 1 1. our next chance of rain may not even come until late tuesday or wednesday of next week, shawn. so lots to look forward to. we're down in the web center talking about tonight's
