Powell joins distinguished club of former Carroll County Chiefs of Staff Eagle Archives by Kevin Dayhoff May 5, 2014
Powell joins distinguished club of former Carroll County
Chiefs of Staff Eagle Archives by Kevin Dayhoff May 5, 2014
The recent resignation of Steve Powell, chief of staff for
the Board of Commissioners for Carroll County, brought back memories of other
distinguished individuals in county history who have endured that arduous
position: Richard "Pat" Hill, Robert A. "Max" Bair and
George A. Grier, to name a few.
In full disclosure, this writer had the honor and privilege
to have worked with every county chief of staff — executive assistant — since
the position was created in 1959.
[…]
Whether you agreed or disagreed with them, those who have
held the position deserve a special place in our hearts and prayers for their
service and commitment to Carroll County; for it is a wonder they are able to
retire and not be committed: On any given day, the chief must keep the wheels
of government running smoothly.
[…]
Often, my visits to the office of the chief of staff
reminded me of the lyrics to the 1970 David Bowie song, "All the
Madmen": "Day after day / They take some brain away / Then turn my
face around / To the far side of town / And tell me that it's real / Then ask me
how I feel." http://youtu.be/jb7Xdu7STx8

[…]
Meanwhile, it is only fitting that Powell will be leaving to
take a job in a retirement home — as vice president of finance for Carroll
Lutheran Village. Join me in wishing him the best.

Mo Krome, retired Md. St. Police Major from Carroll Co., honored for continued outstanding service
RETIRED STATE POLICE MAJOR FROM CARROLL CO. HONORED FOR
CONTINUED OUTSTANDING SERVICE
Maryland State Police Superintendent Colonel Marcus L. Brown today acknowledged the outstanding contributions of a retired Major and Carroll County resident who continued to serve and support troopers through his service as a trustee on the Maryland State Retirement and Pension System Board.
Major (Retired) Morris L. Krome, of Carroll County, was presented a Superintendent’s Commendation by Colonel Brown today. The presentation came during ceremonies that acknowledged more than 100 state troopers, civilian employees, and allied law enforcement personnel for their bravery, commitment, compassion and outstanding service to the people of Maryland.
“After 29 years as a sworn state trooper, Major Krome continued his service to the men and women of the Maryland State Police during more than 23 years of working on pension issues, including 16 years as a member of the Maryland State Retirement and Pension System Board of Trustees,” Colonel Brown said. “His valued leadership has helped guide the board and he contributed significantly to the enhancement of benefits for state troopers and their families. He continues to be an important member of the Maryland State Police family whose dedication to his fellow troopers will long be remembered.”
Major (Retired) Krome spent 29 years with the Maryland State Police, serving as commander of the Maryland State Police Personnel Management Division, and later as Assistant Chief to the Administrative Bureau. This is where his interest began in retirement issues.
Following his retirement in 1991, Major Krome served on the Department of Legislative Reference’s Pension Code Revision Sub-Committee with the Maryland State Retirement Agency. He began representing the interests of troopers on employee organizations and testified before the Maryland General Assembly on retirement issues.
Major Krome was then elected to the Maryland State Retirement and Pension System Board of Trustees in 1998. He will have served four terms on the Board of Trustees when his retirement takes place in July 2014.
As a Trustee of the Maryland State Retirement and Pension System Board, Major Krome helped bring a successful resolution to a court case which awarded $73 million to the system. He worked two years with the Maryland General Assembly to win passage of benefits for the spouses of deceased retired state troopers. He served as a member of both the Audit Committee and the Investment Committee and was Vice Chairman of the Administrative Committee.
As the Board of Trustees’ longest serving member, Major Krome shared his knowledge and expertise with fellow board members, while providing a valuable historical perspective to the retirement issues of the day. For his outstanding service as a member of the Maryland State Retirement and Pension System Board of Trustees and his committed service in support of thousands of troopers even after his retirement from the Maryland State Police, Major (Retired) Morris L. Krome was awarded a Superintendent’s Commendation.

Chesapeake Bay Program - Chesapeake Bay News: New wastewater treatment technologies create clean water in Chesapeake Bay - Chesapeake Bay Program:
http://www.chesapeakebay.net/blog/post/new_wastewater_treatment_technologies_create_clean_water_in_chesapeake_bay
Upgrading wastewater treatment technologies has lowered pollution in the Potomac, Patuxent and Back rivers, leading researchers to celebrate the Clean Water Act and recommend continued investments in the sewage sector.
Introduced in 1972, the Clean Water Act’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit program regulates point sources of pollutants, or those that can be pinpointed to a specific location. Because wastewater treatment plants are a point source that can send nutrient-rich effluent into rivers and streams, this program has fueled advancements in wastewater treatment technologies. Biological nutrient removal, for instance, uses microorganisms to remove excess nutrients from wastewater, while the newer enhanced nutrient removal improves upon this process.
Researchers with the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES) have linked these wastewater treatment technologies to a cleaner environment. In a report released last month, five case studies show that wastewater treatment plant upgrades in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia improved water quality in three Chesapeake Bay tributaries...

Off Track Art will host an opening reception for Sherrill Cooper on Friday, May 2, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. http://tinyurl.com/otuwfez
Sherrill Cooper is the featured artist at Off Track Art for
May and June 2014
Off Track Art, an artists’ cooperative in downtown
Westminster, will host an opening reception for Sherrill Cooper on Friday, May
2, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Ms. Cooper is the featured artist at Off Track Art
for May and June 2014.
Sherrill has an extensive body of work that reflect her love
of the figure.
"I love people watching,” says Ms. Cooper. “The way they sit, stand, their overall
posture and attitude fascinates me. I am drawn to the figure absorbed in
contemplation—capturing their inner sense of isolation. I seek to communicate
their emotions at that particular time. I want the viewer to feel what the subject
is feeling…
According to her artist’s statement and brief biographical
sketch, “Sherrill Cooper's studio feels
like a tree house. It overlooks a lush, dense oak forest in Finksburg, MD.
In this setting
Sherrill has found a way to merge her two passions: illustration and painting
in oil.
She has enjoyed a successful
30 year career as an illustrator. Now
that she has raised two children, she finds more time to paint.
Illustration has taught
her composition, color, creativity, expression, and most of all draftsmanship.
These disciplines
serve her well when she applies paint to canvas. She seeks to distill all of her experiences
in to each painting with fresh concepts, strong design sensibilities, emotional
brushstrokes, and rich and textural color.
The figure interests
Sherrill most. Particularly those
moments of contemplation when people are caught-up in their thoughts and
emotions.
Attitude, body
language and posture are what she seeks to communicate with the viewer.
Choosing the correct
value is essential. Putting it down only
once, with the appropriate brush and stroke. These are choices that I make very
carefully. If I get them right, the painting, like the person moves and
breathes. - Sherrill Cooper
For inquires, or to see more paintings, visit www.sherrill@tsherrillcooper.com.
“Off Track Art” is an artists’ collective and gallery
located in the historic Liberty Building at 11 Liberty Street – next to the
railroad tracks, off of the Sentinel parking lot at the corner of West Main St
and MD 27-Liberty St - in downtown Westminster, Maryland.
For over 5-years, the partners in the coop have been
dedicated to advancing the arts in Westminster as well as the careers, ideas,
and artistic visions of its members.
The coop partners include, Kevin Dayhoff, Gail Elwell, Linda
Van Hart, Judy Goodyear, Charlotte Laslo, Joyce Schaum, Carolyn Seabolt, Robert
Waddell, Nick Corso, and Gordon Wickes.
The inspiration for forming the co-op was spearheaded by
local artists Susan Williamson & Pam Zappardino. After discussions and
organizational meetings in December 2008, Off Track opened its doors in January
2009 and had its grand opening on Feb. 13th, 2009.
If you come: the Opening Reception for painter Sherrill
Cooper is scheduled for May 2, 2014, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Off Track Art, an artists’ cooperative in downtown
Westminster, will host an opening reception for Sherrill Cooper on Friday, May
2, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Ms. Cooper is the featured artist at Off Track Art
for May and June 2014.
Sherrill has an extensive body of work that reflect her love
of the figure.
"I love people watching,” says Ms. Cooper. “The way they sit, stand, their overall
posture and attitude fascinates me. I am drawn to the figure absorbed in
contemplation—capturing their inner sense of isolation. I seek to communicate
their emotions at that particular time. I want the viewer to feel what the subject
is feeling…
According to her artist’s statement and brief biographical
sketch, “Sherrill Cooper's studio feels
like a tree house. It overlooks a lush, dense oak forest in Finksburg, MD.
In this setting
Sherrill has found a way to merge her two passions: illustration and painting
in oil.
She has enjoyed a successful
30 year career as an illustrator. Now
that she has raised two children, she finds more time to paint.
Illustration has taught
her composition, color, creativity, expression, and most of all draftsmanship.
These disciplines
serve her well when she applies paint to canvas. She seeks to distill all of her experiences
in to each painting with fresh concepts, strong design sensibilities, emotional
brushstrokes, and rich and textural color.
The figure interests
Sherrill most. Particularly those
moments of contemplation when people are caught-up in their thoughts and
emotions.
Attitude, body
language and posture are what she seeks to communicate with the viewer.
Choosing the correct
value is essential. Putting it down only
once, with the appropriate brush and stroke. These are choices that I make very
carefully. If I get them right, the painting, like the person moves and
breathes. - Sherrill Cooper
