Carroll County's Delegation to Annapolis was presented this week with a pre-holiday wish list of proposed legislation — some old, some new — to introduce during the 2012 General Assembly.

At a hearing on Dec. 13 at the County Office Building in Westminster, local officials and residents offered their input on bills that would specifically impact Carroll County.

The Annapolis session opens on Jan. 11, and legislators annually hear comments on bill proposals before deciding whether to support or oppose measures when the session gets under way… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/ph-ce-delegation-meet-1218-20111214,0,7811250.story

Be Careful In Gathering Your Christmas Greens

Democratic Advocate, December 8, 1922.

http://kevindayhoff.blogspot.com/2011/12/december-8-1922-be-careful-in-gathering.html

Labels: Annual Christmas, Annual Christmas decorations, Annual Christmas Trees, Christmas history

This is the season of the year when property owners, especially along the highways, should exercise the utmost vigilance in protecting their evergreens, holly, running pine, laurel and the like.

The gathering of Christmas greens became such a serious matter, because of vandalism practiced, that the Legislature of 1918 enacted a special law covering the subject.

This law makes it a misdemeanor, with a fine of $25.00 or 90 days imprisonment, or both, to remove, injure, or destroy any trees or shrubs, without the written consent of the owner, or except under his personal direction.

The State Board of Forestry is cooperating with land owners in the enforcement of this law, and will be glad to furnish, without charge, suitable posters for the protection of property to any who may desire them.

Soaring steel sculpture by preeminent American artist Mark di Suvero at Brooklyn Bridge Park

http://www.artdaily.org/index.asp?int_sec=2&int_new=52458

BROOKLYN, N.Y.- Storm King Art Center, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy have announced the installation at the Park of a soaring steel sculpture by preeminent American artist Mark di Suvero. Organized and implemented by Storm King, working closely with the Park and the Conservancy, the presentation of the work, titled Yoga (1991), represents the first initiative in an anticipated ongoing arts program there.

The roughly thirty-foot-tall composition is sited on the Bridge View Lawn at the Park’s Pier 1, overlooking the East River. It comprises an I-beam-bent into a U-shape that rocks and pivots on a stainless-steel pole, itself topped by an O-shaped element. The sculpture creates changing shadows and perspectives as the I-beam variously points to the harbor, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Governors Island, and beyond, while the O may remind viewers of a ship’s po ...

Overnight shooting and robbery in Taneytown investigated, two suspects still at large

http://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2011/12/overnight-shooting-and-robbery-in.html


Maryland State Police have three men in custody and are looking for two more suspects in a shooting and robbery which erupted in the early morning hours just outside of Taneytown.

The three suspects are currently detained at the Westminster State Police barrack awaiting criminal charges as police continue to sort out the details of the crime.

The victims have been identified as Alan J. Kent, 26, and Samantha L. Stanley, 19; both of Taneytown. According to a release from the state police, Stanley was not physically hurt.

At around 2:23 a.m., Friday, police and emergency medical personnel were alerted to respond to reports of a shooting and armed robbery in 3900-block of Old Taneytown Road, Taneytown.

Upon arrival, police discovered that Kent had been “struck in the back of the head by what may have been an expandable baton,” and wounded by a gunshot.

The suspects had fled the scene.

According to a state police report, “Kent sustained a gunshot wound to the leg and was flown by Maryland State Police helicopter to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center, where he is being treated for what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries.”

The preliminary findings reported by the state police reveal Stanley was visiting at Kent’s residence when male suspects arrived at the home about 2:00 a.m. and called Kent outside.”

Police report that while one male remained with Kent, three other men came into the house, where a handgun was displayed and pointed at her and information was demanded “about what was in the home.”

Stanley, according to police, “said the man shot Kent’s dog when it came toward the suspect. The dog has been transported to a veterinarian for treatment…

“After removing a suitcase from the house, the victims said all four suspects left in a light colored Ford Explorer.”

An alert by police was broadcast on police scanners for the suspects. Police units from area departments responded to the area to assist with the search, including Carroll County sheriff’s office deputies and officers from the Taneytown Police Department.

Shortly after, “a Taneytown police officer searching the area spotted a light-colored Ford Explorer on Courier Court in Taneytown,” say police.

When the officer stopped the vehicle, “two African American males fled on foot and were not located. The officer took two other males into custody.”

Subsequently, “police observed what appears to be blood on the vehicle and said an expandable baton was visible inside the truck…

“The vehicle was towed to the Westminster Barrack where it will be processed for evidence after a search warrant is obtained.”

Details concerning the apprehension of a third suspect have not been released.

Maryland State Police investigators from the Westminster barrack are continuing the investigation and troopers from the State Apprehension Team, sheriff’s deputies and Taneytown police officers are assisting with the search for the remaining suspects.

The additional suspects are described as two African American males. “One is about 5’7” tall, with black, buzzed-cut hair, who was wearing a black jacket and black pants. The other at-large suspect is described as wearing a dark bandana across his face, a black jacket, and a black hood over his head.”
