Md., Va.,
D.C. Set New Bay Clean-Up Goals
Here
we go again:
Almost a third of Solomon's Island
has now been bought by The Chesapeake Biological Lab;
money which was supposed to be used for research has
been wasted on buying up pricey homes to house staff.
ST. MARY'S TODAY photo
more bucks for scientists
who use the money to pay for buying up all the real
estate on Solomon's Island; for paying some oystermen to
plant oyster seeds in beds that some other oystermen get
to harvest. The politicians pose for photos and
pat themselves on their backs while they spend your tax
money on smoke and mirrors. The real problem lies
in sewage plants in DC and Baltimore, suburban homes
dumping huge quantities of fertilizer on lawns to make
them greener and storm water runoff into streams which
brings more pollution to the Bay. The legislators
from the big 5 counties and City of Baltimore all fall
over themselves introducing new bills to clean up the
Bay but its just the taxpayers who get cleaned out while
there are less crabs and oysters every year in spite of
the millions allocated. How has the real estate
empire built up by the Chesapeake Biological Lab at
Solomon's produced more oysters and crabs? Can the
taxpayers get a receipt for what has been spent by the
State of Maryland for planting oysters?

ABC 7 contradicted by its own readers on view of police
capture of suspect
A video of the capture of a suspect running from
police in Howard County was promised to show the man
being beaten by police as he laid prone on the pavement.
The television station's breathless report that the
video clearly showed this abuse was accompanied by the
video itself. A review of this video, which can be
reached here, shows the cops who forced the man to stop
may have taken two whacks at the guy as they attempted
to handcuff him. Police officers are trained to
quickly get a suspect handcuffed and to use all force
necessary to accomplish this task. The video shows
that this is exactly what took place. The Howard
County police chief shows he is a twit by giving a news
reporter a comment prior to the review by investigators
and a reader poll conducted by ABC 7 of its website
readers show that 71 % of those responding believe the
officers acted properly. ABC 7 is a good
operation but in this case, they get the
NUMB NUTS AWARD.

A locally owned coffee
shop on the go business operated by John and Jeri Jewell
has shut down it's unique kiosk coffee shacks in
Charlotte Hall, Leonardtown, Solomon's and Callaway.
Two remaining kiosks in Lexington Park and California
had been part of an effort to stay alive but are closed
and the one shown above has vanished.
The business slowed down with consumers trying to save
and eating out and treats like espresso is one of the
first places that people have started. Other businesses
in the area have closed and more are tottering on the
edge as the recession takes a local and personal look.
The Federal Government didn't show up to bail out the

Now this is a
fireboat, something that Solomon's could use
due to it's habit of massive waterfront
fires burning out of control. This 85'
fireboat is excess to the City of Baltimore

current bid of $25,100.
This block in
downtown Lexington Park was the object of
the desire of the St. Mary's Commissioners
to show off their real estate development
skills. The commissioners used tax money to
buy a one year option for one building and
spent another $50,000 on the process, which
failed. A recent interest on the part
of a drug chain has waned and the
commissioners have simply wasted the money
of the taxpayers.
