POLICE SEARCHING FOR 2 MISSING SILVER SPRING TEENS (PHOTOS)

Two Silver Spring teenagers are missing tonight, and Montgomery County Police are asking the public's help in locating them. They are each separate missing persons cases.

First, we go to Aspen Hill:

Verenice Soledad Cruz, 16, a resident of the 13500 block of Georgia Avenue, was last seen February 1.  She is a Latina female,  5’02” tall, and weighs approximately 120 pounds. Cruz has brown eyes and long, black hair.  She was wearing a black leather jacket and blue jeans the last time she was seen.  Police say Cruz "frequents" the Aspen Hill Apartments, which are in the same block where she lives, as far as I can tell from the information.

The second missing teen is from the Stonegate area, off of Bonifant Road, near the Intercounty Connector (MD 200):

Martin Curtis Reed disappeared from Carona Court "earlier today," police say. Reed is a white male, 5’9″ inches tall, and weighs about 210 pounds.  He has blue eyes and short blonde/brown hair.  He was last seen wearing blue sweatpants, a black sweatshirt, and a camouflage vest.  He was also carrying a backpack and a black, pool cue-type bag.  Reed is walking with one crutch due to a broken left leg that is in a cast. Police say he was involved in a family argument before leaving.

If you have seen, or have information about, either missing teen, police ask you to call their non-emergency number, at 301-279-8000.

WHICH STORE HAS THE BEST CATCHING FIRE BLU-RAY/DVD PACKAGE FOR HUNGER GAMES FANS? (PHOTOS)

Friday is the big day for Hunger Games fans, as the second film installment hits stores across the country. Catching Fire doesn't have quite the elaborate special edition packages the first movie did, but offers more than the average Hollywood blockbuster release in these days of dwindling bonus gifts. For collectors, it's all about the bonus pack-ins, and exclusive content and artwork.

So, which store has the best Catching Fire Blu-ray/DVD package?

In my opinion, it's Target.

The Target Catching Fire set includes 45 minutes of exclusive bonus content:

Target Exclusive (45 minutes of content): 

• “ONE VISION” (A FAITHFUL ADAPTATION)--translating Suzanne Collins' source material to the big screen 

• “THE ALLIANCE” (RETURNING CAST)—an inside look at the close-knit relationships of the returning actors 

• “FRIEND OR FOE” (NEW CAST)--finding the perfect embodiments of the new characters 

And a booklet.

But, wait, there's more!

Pre-order your copy from Target, and you also get this Target-exclusive fabric poster:

Not to mention that the Target edition appears to have the best cover design. And you get all of this for $22.99, more than you pay for many recent Blu-ray releases that had no collectible bonus items.

Walmart

Walmart is second best, if you live near one that is opening at midnight tonight - the first 50 Catching Fire purchases will come with a Walmart-exclusive poster. Find a Walmart midnight opening event near you.  The poster isn't new; it is said to be the IMAX theater poster from last November's opening.

But that's it for bonus items, and Walmart has no exclusive bonus-disc content. The only other Walmart exclusive is a 2-movie set for the completist. Walmart has an online price of $19.96 for the Blu-ray/DVD.

Best Buy

Best Buy's primary exclusive, is offering Catching Fire in the steelbook format. This is best for those who collect steelbooks in general, or, again, for the completist. If you're not near a midnight opening Walmart, bump up Best Buy to #2 on the list. The other 2 Best Buy bonuses that can bump it up to #2 are A) you can pick up the first Hunger Games Blu-ray steelbook version for only $5 when you buy Catching Fire, and B) you also get $8 in Fandango Cash, payable towards Divergent when it hits theaters on March 21. Best Buy's price is the same as Target.

Zip, zilch, nada. Just the movie, that's it.
