Westminster, Carroll County, Maryland; October 19, 2015

On Monday, October 19, 2015, at approximately 3:52 PM, Carroll County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to the Liberty Gas Station, 23 Carroll Plaza, Westminster, for the report of a robbery. Deputies were informed that 2 black males, both believed to be in their 20's, entered the store and displayed a handgun and a "Taser". The two suspects then took an undisclosed amount of money and other items from the store and fled on foot.

An employee of the store reported that the "taser" was used on him, but no injuries were sustained from this incident.

Carroll County Sheriff's Deputies, Maryland State Police Troopers and a MSP Bloodhound all took part in the search for the suspects, but at this time, they have not been located.

Suspect #1 is described as a black male, 6' - 6' 5" tall, medium build, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with "Baltimore Ravens" on the front, black pants with lettering down the right leg, black shoes, black ski mask, and armed with a "Taser" type device.

Suspect #2 is described as a black male, 5' 10" - 6' tall, medium build, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt under a dark colored jacket / sweatshirt, black pants, black shoes, black ski mask, and armed with a semi-automatic handgun.

The Carroll County Sheriff's Office investigation continues... Anyone with information about this incident are asked to contact the Sheriff's Office at 410-386-2900, or the Anonymous TIPS Hotline at 1-888-399-TIPP.

November 27, 2008: Penny Riordan Carroll Seniors and the Great Depression


November 27, 2008: Penny Riordan Carroll Seniors and the Great Depression

In November 2008, writer Penny Riordan gave us a first-hand account of Carroll Seniors and the Great Depression. November 27, 2008 KED

On November 27, 2008 I wrote:

Penny Riordan Carroll Seniors and the Great Depression




November 27, 2008

For those who have missed the reporting of Penny Riordan, the former education reporter for in the Carroll County Times, do not despair. 

She is still with the paper; however she has become the editor of the newspaper’s “Carroll Seniors” publication.

The November 2008 edition of the paper has a great deal of excellent content on the Great Depression, which has certainly been in the forefront of the news these days as the nation continues to wrangle with economic turmoil. 

Unfortunately, the content is not online.  So you will have to walk on your feet to a nearby hungry store and pick up a copy at a newsstand.  How quaint.

I recently grabbed a copy and revisited the joys of actually holding a newspaper in my hand as I poured over the excellent writing…  You should do likewise.  It is some great reading…

Kevin Dayhoff November 27, 2008

“Carroll Seniors”  “The Great Depression: those who lived the decade compare it to the current economic crisis”

“Banks shutting down.

Stock market troubles.

Unemployment.

In today’s economy, these phrases are used often. But they also conjure up memories of another economic crisis that has been brought up a lot more in recent months: the great depression.

But for those who lived through the great depression, things going on in the economy today just don’t quite compare.”


Carroll Seniors is a free publication distributed by the Carroll County Times.  It is produced by Penny Riordan, the former education reporter for the Times.

Carroll County Times October 12, 2015: Carroll State's Attorney warns about BGE bill scams

Carroll State's Attorney warns about BGE bill scams

October 12, 2015


The Carroll County State's Attorney's Office is warning residents about a utility bill payment scam targeting both businesses and individual residents.

The Economic Crimes Unit of the state's attorney's office has received information about several recent incidents in which a caller tells the victim their BGE bills have not been paid, and threatens service will be disconnected if immediate payment isn't made, according to a new release from State's Attorney Brian DeLeonardo. The caller then requests payment through a reloadable credit card.

Why You Should Run from “Bible Believing Churches” October 6, 2015 by Adam Ericksen

Why You Should Run from “Bible Believing Churches”

October 6, 2015 by Adam Ericksen


The Bible is a document written by human beings who tried to recognize what God was doing in their lives. But it’s not inerrant. Interestingly, if the Bible were inerrant you would think it would tell us. It simply doesn’t use those terms. The Bible never says, “Hi! I’m the Bible. I’m the inerrant Word of God. Believe in me!”

There are disagreements that run throughout the Bible. Those disagreements are one of the things that I love about the Bible! The Bible models for us how to wrestle with God and ask questions about faith.

The Bible contains human testimony about how God works in the world, but it is not God’s inerrant Word. The Bible points beyond itself to God, and in the New Testament, to the God revealed in Jesus. The Bible even claims that Jesus is the Word of God, not the Bible itself.

[…]

Jesus claimed that the scriptures are limited. You cannot have eternal life by believing in the Bible. In fact, when we elevate the Bible above God, it blocks us from our only access to eternal life.

The Bible is important, but we are not Biblians. We are Christians, called to come to Jesus.

That’s why you should run from “Bible believing churches.” Churches aren’t meant to believe in the Bible. They are meant to believe in the God revealed through Jesus.
