In commemoration of the 25th Anniversary, the Girl Scout troop from St. Stanislaus will be recognized at Memorial Square on 69th Street and Grand Avenue immediately after the Memorial Day Parade on Sunday, May 24. Back in 1984, the same Girl Scout troop wrote letters to the Queens Ledger asking to bring back the Memorial Day Parade in Maspeth. This outcry resulted in the reemergence of the Parade. The troop is led by Linda Cotov and Wiceida Feliciano, and troop members include Marissa Cofane, Kim Cotov, Kristina DeSena, Sarah Feliciano, Natalie Frankowski, Taylor Groll, Maragret Leisenheimer, Rebekah Lopatto, Ashling McGlone, Cassandra Rodriguez, Jennifer Silberberger, Nicole Talamo, and Amanda Vopat

A woman writes a message for passengers aboard a missing Malaysia Airlines plane on a banner at Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Sepang, Malaysia, Wednesday, March 12, 2014. More than four days after the Malaysian jetliner went missing en route to Beijing, authorities acknowledged Wednesday they didn't know which direction the plane carrying 239 passengers was heading when it disappeared, vastly complicating efforts to find it. (AP Photo/Lai Seng Sin)HONG KONG (AP) — Within an industry notorious for impoverishing shareholders and irking customers, Malaysia Airlines has stood out for its years of restructurings and losses. The company now has global recognition of a far less unfavorable kind after one of its jets disappeared four days ago with 239 people aboard.

Instead, in the waning days of the spirited campaign to replace the late Rep. Bill Young, another issue has roared to the forefront. (AP Photo/Steve Nesius, File)CLEARWATER BEACH, Fla. (AP) — After months of railing against President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, Republicans scored a key victory in a hard-fought congressional race that had been closely watched as a bellwether of midterm elections in November.
